I bowed. I will be his last target.

My dad gave me the best advice ever.
He goes, just give it a shot.
But if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall and it doesn't
feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit.
If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration.
not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat.
Just hang in there.
Yeah, it would not be.
Right, it wouldn't be that.
There's a lot of luck.

No retail.
That was the most epic
It was never really
Like I'm out of breath
Yeah, how long did it take
It was like three and a half minutes
That's only three
That's like a lot
It's like an actual pop song
Yeah, three and a half
We're gonna put that on iTunes
Yeah, put it on an eye tour
We're gonna put that up on a digital
media service. Seth, what happened, bro?
I know. It came in too
fast, the beat.
I had a great bit, too.
You guys couldn't even hear it, but it was really hilarious.
The music was fucked. The problem
is that you're trying to think about it, and then
y'all be like, Supremah.
You don't have time to think about it, and then this
motherfuck can start pointing at you.
You got to block out the bullshit.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to
an episode, another episode,
of Quest Love Supreme.
I guess this is the rogue episode
because I see that Sirak
from the Christmas episode.
Pour me some of that.
We would like to,
I never thought this day would happen
where I would have
all the, shout out to Jockey, who's not here?
Jockey just got on his airplane.
Sorry, but ladies and gentlemen,
we have the entire Smollett clan
here, including Joe. I didn't even think
Jojo would be here. But we have
Jesse Smollett, Jazz Smollett, Jake
Smollett, JoJo Smollett, Journey, Smollett.
We got everybody but Tito.
Please welcome. Seth.
Seth Smallett. You know.
White, smallette. Yeah, you know. Anyway,
welcome the Smallers to
course-level support.
Yeah. What a joy.
All this love that you give us
we just want to give right back.
Feels like a Friday after full house.
Let's pay the bills.
You guys are here as a family to promote your book.
Hopefully one of many called The Family Table,
which you said for a nomad,
what's the nomadic?
Recipes and moments from a nomadic life.
Explain that to me because I know that you guys.
guys have been through everything.
Yeah, so in the book there are recipes, 130.
And then there are also memories and moments.
For around.
Wait, I just saw the most epic.
For around nomadic life.
Nomadic means.
Y'all be moving?
Yeah.
Definitely.
Oh, no, no, for real.
We've moved like back and forth across the country over 13 times.
Oh, wow.
By car.
Oh, that's expensive with all you.
Oh, no.
It's expensive if we would have flown.
And back in the day, way back, Pan Am was expensive.
Pan Am.
You guys?
No.
No, that was when I was in.
I don't know what they talking about.
No, she don't know.
Easter?
Yeah.
But then later.
I grew on a Pan Am flight still.
They were still going in like 1990.
I don't know.
This was in the movie airplane.
Pan Am.
I was going to see the same thing.
Yeah, but don't forget, we moved a lot in one city, too.
We did a lot of regional moves.
Yeah, we did.
One decade, it was like five years in a row.
We had the summer classic, so we moved, you know.
What's the city?
Yeah.
What's the city?
Y'all were moving around so much.
Oh, L.A., you know, Diamond Bar, you know, big up to Diamond Bar.
The Diamond Bar is.
Far as hell.
It's like all over, you know.
To a bunch of East Coast, L.A. is like, okay, there's Hollywood, and then there's
everything else.
Everything is big.
Yeah, L.A.'s big.
But the nomadic life was really about.
That we moved on.
Yeah.
And that we, you know, we experienced so many different cultural aspects of the country.
We also have so many cultural backgrounds that we either participate in or have in our family lineage that we celebrate.
And a lot of that is based around food.
All of it's based around food.
Where were you born?
Most of us were born in New York.
New York Hospital in Queens.
They were living in Lefrax City when Jodo was born in Washington.
Heights when I was born
back in the day
in Washington Heights.
So I'm real.
Oh, back in the day, Washington Heights.
Yeah.
Jazzy from the block.
I am.
Jesse from the block.
I was born in the 80s,
but I just made it.
Wait, Jack, who's the oldest?
He's the oldest.
And then there's, yes.
Yes.
Thank you, Bill.
I.
We can't hear the snaps loud.
I'm sorry.
I was born in 1980s.
So, I mean, not left-right-activity.
That is not cracking.
I love it.
Yeah.
Well, because you're still.
Fuck you.
Don't say you ain't got to say.
Yeah.
Because I'm still 27.
I went to you for a lot.
Oh, okay.
I was like, you were 92, you know?
Yeah, 92.
Okay.
No, I thought you were going to go back to.
You know, no jokes.
I'm older than you.
So that's why he's making it.
But you, this is the first time.
That's wrong, mirror.
That's wrong.
Okay.
You're right.
I don't want to talk about age.
Finish.
Fuck you.
Amir.
For doing that to this black woman.
Can we not discuss a woman's age if she don't want to discuss it?
She called it up.
No.
I had the certainty been all calling.
This is the first time.
This is the first time that she's had someone in her flock that she could say like, okay, I relate.
And I was like reminding her that, you know, according to our audience.
I am much younger.
You were three years old when
Illmatic came out.
I too don't know what Pam-Am is it?
Pam. Pam? Pam.
Here you go.
Spam?
I don't know.
We just lost like you.
Yeah, she's old as fuck.
Just like the rest of us here.
Let's get this over with it.
Can we not discuss a woman's age?
We're not going to discuss it.
I didn't mean to interrupt jazz.
You were giving us the secession of how.
The definition of nomadic.
And then the,
the order of how you guys age wise.
And then Justy, he was born in Sonoma County, so northern California.
Jake and Journey were both born in New York.
We were living in...
Elmhurst.
In Queens.
We were in Queens.
Yeah, in Elmhurst, Queens.
And then Jockey was born in...
Santa Monica Hospital, but we were living in Woodland Hills.
Shout out to Woodland Hills.
Really?
Family historian!
Woodland Hills have a job.
I have nothing.
W.A.H.
That's right.
So what prompted...
For our viewers that might not know.
Viewers.
Yeah.
Our listeners.
Everyone just going to ride me as a person.
Waiting to get you.
For our listeners that are, you know, unaware,
what prompted the move to the West Coast?
Which time?
Which time?
I'm just kidding.
Oh, so y'all went back and forth to you?
Yeah.
But the first time we went to L.A.
Are we talking about the time that we went?
Which time?
That we went from the Bay area.
to New York or the time of New York to LA.
You're not going to be able to keep track.
A lot of it was like career opportunities.
You know, my father, his job, he got relocated and things like that, you know.
So acting didn't start first.
No, no, no, acting didn't start first.
No, that was later.
And then later, you know what I mean?
We were doing pretty well out here, actually, as toddlers, we, you know, not toddlers.
I was a tight.
Because I'm proud of my age.
I ain't scared of.
Yeah, that's right, Joe.
That's right, Joe.
That's right, Joe.
Damn, Jazz.
I didn't.
I'm not what I'm saying.
But I think the cool thing about being nomad, you know, through history,
it's like you adapt, you learn to adapt a lot better.
You learn to, you know, become an amalgamation of all the different peoples and cultures
that you come into contact with and you begin to incorporate it into your being and into
who you are.
You know what I mean?
I think that's one of the things that makes us unique as a family and as people is that
that nomadic experience was very enlightening.
for us in a lot of ways.
And it is a very big part of who we are today.
Is it hard?
But we black first.
Absolutely.
What?
I'm just saying.
Make that shit clear.
Yes, we know.
Up in his nomadic motherfucking life.
This is the blackest episode ever.
I can.
Light skin every time.
Do I have to play it?
They always can.
Here we go.
The ears are so black and black, black.
And the smolette.
Anyway.
But is it hard, once a move is prompted, is it hard resetting as far as friends are concerned?
No.
We didn't have any friends.
We didn't have any friends.
Really?
Is this like, we were each other's friends, seriously?
You know what I mean?
And maybe the first couple moves is a little difficult, but after a while you get used to it.
So once you move, it was like you weren't going to see it was across the street to play baseball.
No, we did.
We did.
Fuck those motherfuckers.
You stopped getting attached to everybody.
Did you all get jazz to drink?
What did y'all?
Coffee.
She started already.
Okay.
No, let me tell you how gangster jazz is.
Back in Roan at Park.
Up in the Bay Area.
Motherfucking Shannon.
Push just a steal, my vanilla yo-play yogurt.
What is the one?
And then she would push me.
Jazz.
Shep.
Shannon pushed my brother.
Really?
Wow.
She did.
Oh, so you guys had that like,
I'm gonna get my big brother on you?
Yeah, definitely.
So that means like between Jockey, Jake and just like,
y'all were protected because y'all knew like,
like, did people know not to fuck with y'all?
No, they still messed with us because we were also, you know,
our own individuals.
Oh, y'all was one of them different.
You know, the hippies was a, like.
Oh, definitely hippie.
We get hippie parents and the whole.
The whole thing was, that's what Nomadic is cold for.
If we started a fight, we'd get in trouble.
If we finished a fight, I swear to you, we'd get a toy.
We go to toys for us.
That's great, don't.
You don't even come home until you fight until you beat up, whatever.
If they started, fuck him up.
Finish.
Oh, we got many of them.
You know what I'm saying?
Bitch-ass George found that shit out on 54th Avenue.
All right.
Yeah, they name dropping right now too much.
Okay.
All right?
You get me started all
Jazz had to go toe to toe to.
I.
Yeah.
Don't go back to the neighborhood.
And then she, no, but are you all like,
she literally her mother.
Martin with the list like pretty regular what they call him.
Like, you're just waiting for the.
I got a shit.
Jazz and Justin don't forget the enemies.
Right on the enemies.
I'm sorry.
So they're like looking you up on Facebook and Twitter like,
yo, you remember me from a da-da-da-da-da.
Yeah, I remember.
Yeah.
You like, yeah, I remember you.
No, my fourth-grade bully?
Yeah.
She hit me up on Facebook a couple years.
She told me to add her.
I did.
What you do?
What you do?
Give it more.
Give it more.
I want this fish,
A-Diam real bag.
I added her.
She told me to.
She still got that abusive effect on her, though.
It's all right.
Her name was Shantay.
Shantay, not more.
Her mother.
Her mother worked at a prison.
You know, bless Shanty, though.
I'm not going to talk about her.
We were in the fourth and sixth grade.
Who was in sixth grade?
in fourth grade. She was in sixth grade.
She was in sixth grade, yeah.
But we definitely went toe to toe. And I'm
sorry if you're out there right now.
Now, fuck Shantay. Yeah, fuck
George. Yeah, fuck George.
Now I want to do World Paul again and say
fuck it as George.
And fuck that bitch nigga Jason
who talked to Megan Hagan's at the
motherfucking party.
Oh, she was a girl in a man name.
She cheated on me with Jason.
Bitch ass is grabbing me.
Wait a minute, time out.
No, I got a real question.
Jesse.
Well, how do you guys settle your own fights?
Like that?
Don't give me that we talking.
How do you all settle?
But we're not, we're not, like we have each other.
We cannot ever, like, not have each other.
Oh, so when you're 11, it wasn't out, quit it, out, quit it.
No, no, no, I used to, I used to definitely.
Definitely.
Torment.
She'd beat.
No, she used to beat Jesse's ass.
But she was back to me,
because he wouldn't do the dishes.
No.
Like, no.
I'd say so she'd be like,
shut up, bitch.
Wait, we've done like 90 episodes.
Yeah, I know.
No, let's be clear.
I definitely used to push him.
I'm scared for my life right now, yo.
Just like,
jazz used to have Jesse in the corner
and box on his ass.
I used to beat him because.
You loved him.
If I, if mom,
if mommy would leave.
If they would both leave, okay?
And I was in charge
because he was upstairs playing his guitar.
Right.
Okay?
I'm second oldest.
This is a guy on episode of Jenny Jones right now.
He knows he's supposed to do the dishes.
I just want to get a meal.
That's all.
Y'all, somebody might need to turn Jess Michael for a second.
You can hear me?
I can hear you.
Is anyone from Harper Collins here?
Because I want to make sure that.
No.
That's your publicity.
Y'all didn't make it.
Don't lose.
Your sponsorship.
No, but I'm saying, like, how do you guys handle conflict at home?
Because that's very real.
I don't ask me.
No, honestly.
Well, as a dog.
As a dog.
Journey.
Like, I mean, I mean, I don't.
I mean, honestly, you know, I don't really have conflict with my siblings.
because I'm so incredible as a person
that everyone gets along
with me, which is really true.
But they
handle it.
No, no, no, I mean, I feel
like none of us can be mad at each
other for too long. I mean, we definitely
have, like, disagreements, and we
have, like, our tense moments, and we get
in arguments, not in the sense of,
like, oh, we ever take
it to a certain level, but
it just doesn't last
very long, and I think because
growing up, mommy
really raised us with a certain
level of conflict resolution.
And she had zero tolerance
for it. Like, zero tolerance
for us fighting or arguing.
And, like, she would make us hug each other
if we were in an argument and, like, kiss on each
other. She'd be like, go kiss your brother right now.
You know, and so,
I think over time we just learned
to talk it out, and we do
a lot of talking. We will debate
each other. Now, that we will do.
We will debate each other until 4 o'clock.
in the morning and it will get exhausting but yeah do y'all have like a
particular I feel like Jojo's the father of this situation and he don't take no mess like
Jojo's position is just jojo is journey don't get on that fucking plane please let's
journey journey journey journey please don't fucking go to Bosnia journey
like why you're in Bosnia right why you don't you don't promote
emotional stuff in Bosnia right now.
That's the thing I would say.
Yeah, like, he's just, he's definitely very,
very parental in the sense, like he's so concerned for our safety.
I think a lot of oldest kids and families,
and especially large families,
have a tendency to be, you know, a little bit, you know,
concerned.
You know, we carry, I don't say we carry as much concern as a parent,
but we do carry a lot of concern because we've given a lot of, you know,
custodial responsibility growing up, you know, raising,
not raising them directly, but, you know,
watch your sister or watch your brother or watch
things like that.
Jojo will be the first to text all of us
in a group text, letting us know
that the romaine lettuce has salmonella.
Yep. Yes.
Yeah.
Gotta let everybody know.
So he's a bad news smurf over there.
Yes.
Is that a new news story?
But, you know, being aware is good news.
You know, being aware is being prepared
and being prepared is, you know, keeps you safe.
That's what I feel, right?
You know, and, you know,
touching on that issue of confrontation,
You know, our parents, one of the things, if you hear what Jesse was saying about,
our parents were kind of like hippies, but they also taught us not to take crap.
They was like HWA, hippies with attitude, you know, they was kind of like, you know,
you can't let people step on you, and we're good people, we know we're good people,
so we always will love the good people, we'll always be cool with the good people.
And our families like that, our brothers and sisters, we don't know they're good people.
They've got our back, they're not against us.
Somebody steps against you, it's a little different, you know what I mean?
And that's the thing, because if you're a right,
person you're trying to be good to other people like our parents taught us to be then you know you're
going to get a little angrier when someone's not being that way and reciprocating that to you so can y'all
tell us about your parents and the kind of people that they were super cool people like really really cool
people of the earth you know what i mean people who love all people kind of like share this like you know
universal is my pain yes universal understanding about things like would make jesse just mommy made jesse one year
take his jacket off in the middle of
winter to give it to a homeless man
that was normal
yeah and that was like an everyday thing
I love that jacket
it was $89 at the gap
and I loved it
and she said give him your jacket I said give him or what
she said give him your jacket
I was going to say that your mom
got you guys
sort of in
the political game
super
early. They met though. You guys wore off with me because I'm not saying I would have been
politically indifferent but I was definitely like one of those people was just like
yeah I wasn't knocking on doors and driving people. Remember when he came with a jazz? You forced
me to do my first speech. Oh that's right. Yeah we forced you to come. Do you all remember that
first night when we thought we thought all was lost? It was super Tuesday. We were a super Tuesday.
We were sitting in a diner. No, Amir took you and I to a diner
in Crenshaw, I forget the diner.
And you still have a picture of us,
or you sent me a picture of us,
just looking so depressed.
We were so...
We thought Obama had just lost to Hillary,
and we had been, like,
doing a bunch of door knocking
and phone banking all day long.
Right.
And really thought we had it in the bag,
you know, especially California.
And no, he lost it to Hillary Clinton,
and we were depressed.
Yeah, we were.
But when did you guys first...
Because that wasn't the first time you guys.
No.
No, that has always been.
We were on the street corner for Bill Clinton in 92.
Like that was always.
You were like four.
True.
Yeah, some of them were.
True.
You know, I told me when I was 12.
I was 12.
Just leave the numbers on.
Just, you know.
She understood what she was there for.
Yeah, but for me it was in our DNA.
Yeah, it was like a, that was an awakening because my parents I'd always hear them talking
politics in the house.
And, you know, I'm old enough to.
remember most of the 80s actually.
And, you know, it was just,
it was just, yeah, it was just this, my whole life, you know, until, until 92,
it was just this right wing, hardcore right wing, Reagan Bush, you know,
empowers.
And then Bill Clinton became president.
I was like, wow, Democrat actually won.
And I started getting really interested in it in that in 92.
And, you know, it, uh, but that's how they met.
They met in the movement in the 70s.
Mommy was the president of the Young Workers League.
Where did they mean?
New York.
San Francisco.
Oakland, actually.
No match.
They've been everywhere.
Yeah, mommy moved from New Orleans
to Oakland
and dad moved from New York
to become a boxer in
San Fran.
And that's how they met
working in the movement.
Wait, what class was he
going to part of? He never became a boxer.
He wanted to be a boxer.
But, yeah.
No.
but like growing up
they worked in the movement in the 70s
with Angela Davis so growing up we would hear
stories about mommy attending
press conferences and watching Angela
speak in several different languages
mommy would tell us stories about Maya Angelou
teaching her how to swim
you know like
she always talks about being in the car when the cops
pulled them over
and her and Angela Davis
and a few other people
and she was how
much confidence she was talking to the police
officers with and talking about how she knew her rights and everything.
And that was always a big impression on our mom.
And she told us these stories since we were little.
Little.
So we always knew about social justice and political issues.
This was something that was constantly talked about.
Especially at the family table.
Yeah.
Which is why we wrote a book called The Family Table.
Nice segue.
Nice segue.
So whose idea was it to craft this book?
Jazz and Jakes.
Yeah.
Okay.
So who designated the...
I did.
Who dealt with the publisher?
Well, no, no, no.
I meant in terms of who decides what recipes, what, and who curates?
I think it was a group effort, like curating the book.
We all had to contribute a certain amount of recipes.
Like, initially it was 33.
I did my 33, J.S. FYI.
Some of us did not do our 33.
But for the most part, it was 33 recipes we each had to do.
That's necessary.
Fight, fight, fight, fight.
So, wait, you guys have 33 individual recipes?
Yes.
There's more for some of us.
Well, what if it was complex?
What have you guys had the same idea or?
Well, it's like recipes we're knowing for cooking.
It's called the family table.
It's really like food we grew up eating.
Yeah.
And so, like, I'm, my cornish hens.
Right.
You know, like, I'm known for my cornish hens.
I'm known for my potato salad.
I'm known for my greens.
I'm known for my mac and cheese.
You know, these are things I'm known for.
A win is a win.
A win is a win.
I don't care what I'm 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 conversations
with some of your favorite athletes, creators,
and voices that not only deserve to be heard, but celebrated.
One week, I'll take you behind the scenes
of the biggest moments in sports and entertainment,
and the next we'll talk about life, mental health,
purpose, and even music.
The Clifford Show isn't just a podcast.
It's a space for honest conversations,
stories that don't always get told,
and for people who are chasing something bigger.
So if you've ever supported me
or you're just chasing down a dream,
this is right where you need to be.
Listen to the Clifford show on the IHeart Radio app,
Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

In 2023,
former bachelor star Clayton Eckerd
found himself at the center of a paternity scandal.
The family court hearings that followed
revealed glaring inconsistencies in her story.
This began a years-long court battle to prove the truth.
You doctored this particular test twice in so-ins, correct?
I doctored the test ones.
It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case.
I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for.
Sunlight's the greatest disinfected.
They would uncover a disturbing pattern.
Two more men who'd been through the same thing.
Greg, a lesbian, and Michael Marantini.
My mind was blown.
I'm Stephanie Young.
This is Love Trap.
Laura, Scottsdale Police.
As the season continues, Laura Owens finally faces consequences.
Ladies and gentlemen, breaking news at Americopa County as Laura Owens has been indicted on fraud charges.
This isn't over until justice is served in Arizona.
Listen to Love Trapped podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
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.
They 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.
Okay, let me turn it.
Let me turn a heat up a little bit.
Who's the best cook?
Mommy.
No, no, no.
Come on now.
No, neutral.
He ain't don't let us go down.
What's the,
Okay, give us a dish and we will tell you who's the best at that particular kind of dish.
Either a dish or a dish or a head.
We should just answer this.
Give us a way of cooking.
No.
Come on.
Just answer.
Amir.
Stop in.
Just tell him.
Just tell him.
Okay.
Tell him.
Gun to your head.
It's Jake.
What's Jeff?
No, without a doubt.
It's Jake.
Listen.
Definitely Jake.
Amir.
I wanted to say Jake, but I didn't want to like hurt jazz's feeling.
Yeah.
So, no, I'm a good cook.
Jazz is absolutely incredible.
Jazz is incredible.
Jazz is incredible.
Jazz is phenomenal.
Okay, so when y'all taste this potato grotin with crab in it is?
Is that coming?
Wait, we're kidding.
Do you know how hard it is for me to get those measurements right?
Okay.
No, no, no, no, no.
We should have taken the damn ones they made on the Today Show today.
When I saw you guys are there, I want to hide-tail it.
In all reality, though, I think it is unanimous.
Jake is, Jake's a black belt.
when it comes to cooking, like, a 14th degree black belt.
Jake, he can make a show, right?
We all do.
Okay.
He can make anything.
It's like inherently.
Jake studies it.
Jake is the art of food.
Jake has learned.
Jake has studied and taken pasta classes in Italy.
You know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying?
Jake is, you know what I'm saying?
And he was teaching them in Italy how to do it.
No, I'm sorry.
He went over there and he said,
Grazie.
Greg.
Can you?
Can you?
And you make a vanilla rose pound cake.
Oh.
No, I will say jazz got paid.
Jazz is off the chain.
Vanilla rose pound cake.
I'm not saying I'm the best.
That's in there.
I'm not saying I'm the best.
Okay, so when we say that jazz is just right behind Jake?
I'm definitely.
Yeah.
Jazz and I are the founders of the tier one system.
Exactly.
A rating system in the siblings.
So this is the same.
That says who can cook the best from a scale of one to three.
So we're not.
We are together.
Wait, listen.
The problem comes in is when you get credit.
And then you take it and you do something else with it.
Can I, we have to explain, we have a tier system in our family.
We grade you on your cooking.
We grade you tiers one.
Like your own Michelin guide?
Yes.
Tier one, tier one is the best.
Tier two is your, you can hang with us.
Tier three, you got a lot of work to do.
That's me.
And you'll never be asked to make anything at the party.
So wait, you'll grade this after the meal?
No, we grade you after you cook.
So on experience.
Silently, we grade you.
We discuss it and then say, we assign a tier to you.
And once you get assigned a tier,
you really have to work very hard to rise up in the ranks.
And you know this lets us know that Amir did not watch our cooking show.
Amir has like 19 gigs.
I saw it.
Y'all, just messed up.
Anywho.
Anywho.
Me, myself, Jesse, and.
and Jazz and Jake are tier one.
Naturally.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Jake and Jazz invented this tier system, but Jake invented it and brought it to me.
Can Jockey cook at all?
Jockey can now.
It's been a running joke as though he can't, but he really, I mean, he can
according to like his videos that he posts on Insta story.
Looks and tastes for two different things.
So he would be in the last place of the six of you?
No, it would be Joe for sure.
Oh, okay.
But Jojo wasn't always.
like that. Joe
wasn't always like that.
He used to try.
He used to try hard and he was great.
His pizzas.
You know what I'm saying?
You make a version of the Italian nice and pizza.
Because I'm the oldest.
I was cooking for them during their formative years.
So they were thinking the food was good.
Once they got old enough, they were like,
this grilled cheese sandwich ain't kicking it.
Oh, okay.
These eggs and his rice is like basic stuff.
The issue I will take with Jojo is this.
It's really that,
So I like to entertain a lot.
Yes.
We throw parties, okay?
So we will say this is the theme,
and he'll bring something that does not go with it.
You can't do that.
So he's the boss building.
He's the unpaid builder group.
What the fuck does that mean?
Because you're off topic or roll call.
Oh, all the time.
Yeah, exactly.
It basically means we're like, this is an Italian feast.
Yes.
I have my tablecloth.
I'll bring Chinese food.
I have my dead corn.
And he brought some chicken fried rice that he made.
That's right.
That doesn't go.
It's topical.
Now that you guys are at a level in your careers as adults,
do you guys still insist on like be one day a week that you all must eat together or is that?
We're not that organized, but.
Perfect answer.
Really?
We definitely do.
We're definitely not that organized.
I mean, I feel like it's, jazz and I literally live so close to each other and both have young children.
So at this, at this stage.
age of your lives,
the weekly
Sunday dinner is that
not a thing?
I mean, Jazz and I definitely
eat probably like,
between our families, we eat together
probably like three to four times a week.
We eat dinner and then like bathed
babies and put them down for bed.
Do they eat Cornish game hands?
The children?
No, I haven't made that for them.
Hunter's not really a fan of like
poultry for something.
What?
I know.
Say it again, Journey.
Poultry.
Do any of you guys have like,
because I notice it's some vegan situations in here.
They're dietary restrictions at this point.
Like, does anybody cooking?
Wait, wait, wait, Amir.
I know you remember our mommy's big good business.
Do you remember how we, me and Jake used to be in that damn kitchen?
Yes.
Cooking these damn vegan pies?
Yes.
And demoing them at the damn.
At home foods?
Health food stores.
Yes, absolutely.
Literally, I remember calling Amir and saying,
yo, I got great debaters.
Now I can quit this job.
And you quit it and it went under.
It went under without me.
So wait.
That's right.
Y'all talked me about,
I didn't know that Whole Foods also had samples.
Yes, demo it.
And even if they don't, you can also ask them for a taste.
Yeah, but we used to make vegan pies.
It was a business we had called Mommy's Big Goods.
And they were vegan sweet potato pie, vegan rhubarb pie,
vegan peach cobbler, oh, vegan apple.
They're good.
And we used to make them.
And here's the thing, we never really saw a profit.
Ever.
Fast forward to now, when I was working on that business we did.
Jazz is a sad.
It's like 20.
Jazz had for jockey and Journey in this.
Wow.
But, jazz, when you were working on that business, the sweet potato pie was lumpy.
Oh.
Oh, no, she did just her sweet potato pie.
No, it was not.
It was lumpy.
It was lumpy.
Jazz.
That was a shake small.
No, no.
No, no.
My response was.
Jazz, you know that pie was lumpy.
Y'all was serving them like freaking sugared candy yams as sweet potato pie.
I will confirm that until Journey went to Spartan final and by
that fucking automatic mixer.
Yes.
It was lumpy.
It was lumpy.
It was lumpy.
I was like, we cannot serve
no sweet potato pie.
Y'all, we're trying to sell a
cookbook with people thinking
that were broke.
No, no.
This was 10 years ago.
Mind you.
This was 10 years ago.
Now, the sweet,
the vegan sweet potato pie,
who has been,
which has been perfected by me.
Oh, here it is in there.
It is in there.
But it's now.
But Jake.
made this, but this is Jake's recipe.
Oh, some of the head notes are written.
Jake just wrote the head note.
Okay.
That pie, I perfected.
A lot of the head notes.
We keep in real.
I didn't really see Jesse
name in the notes. That's funny. I saw
jazz. Wait, wait, wait, wait,
she said she didn't see your name.
I see Jesse like one. I was literally
prepared for all of us to play
Black Heart revoked in case we needed stuff to
talk about. I never played that before.
But this is, this is
way better. I like that game.
What is that game?
Do you notice, you know, way back in the day when we were children, jazz was a top child model.
And then she grew up to also be a very successful model.
If you notice, most of the pictures in the book are of jazz.
Count the book, ankle right.
So you formate.
Angle left.
She's Beyonce, I'm Farrah.
Oh, that's right.
Show me no love.
The tabbyer.
Don't show, don't style me.
Wait, so I will say this.
Wait, first of all.
Yes, she did.
Hold on, because I literally went back and counted how many times everyone appears in the book.
And when I tell you, I have it on my phone, actually.
Jay.
Wait, you took a total.
Yes.
And every picture is sexy.
Like, even your picture in the back where it's just people's head shot or like, whatever.
Well, I took that not on the set.
That's just me being me.
That was a shoot I did before.
I'm sitting on the table with food.
It's a photo shoot.
Right.
They even got her child in it.
Even got her child to take picture space that could have gone to us.
I'm sorry.
I don't even mean my ear.
This is this old show.
Okay, I'm sorry.
Y'all, everybody is represented in this book.
This journey, there's one.
I will tell you, I will tell you this.
You have certain days you shoot lifestyle days, okay?
There was a day, there was an entire day of a photo show.
So you're all forcing jazz to say this.
Yeah.
You want to talk shit in a video.
I was the one who was there.
Me and my child were the only ones there.
So I got to keep it moving.
I see.
Can I hear your numbers journey since you,
wait, you literally went through like,
170 plus pages.
You are your own index.
No, Jazz, in fact, is on every page in that book.
No, I am not.
You'll find her in every page.
That is not true.
How many babies between all of y'all?
Two.
Wait, I need to guarantee this going on the air.
Next to the Chappelle show.
This show is not going to wind up in the...
No, it's not going in the archive.
Yeah, thank you.
I mean, it'll be in the archer.
but it's not going in the vault.
Okay,
let's want to make sure.
Wait,
are you literally counting
right now, Journey?
Wait,
wait, what does that mean?
What does that mean?
The vault versus the vault.
No,
the vault is where the episodes
that we can't hear.
This show's too good to be,
too good to be true
and usually an artist will be like,
they'll have hindsight.
In the hindsight,
like three days later.
We call this Chipelle.
Like Chappelle.
No,
but they are totally joking.
They are shocking.
They are shocking.
No, we're joking.
Okay.
Wait, you stop counting.
Your journey is so soon.
I'm serious.
Journey is going to
like that.
Okay, so I have a question.
So, but if there's like a, I'm not even going to know.
No, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.
What you got, booze?
Jazz, can you stand in mic?
Yes, hello.
What were you going to say, jazz?
Nothing.
No.
I'm not going to give this conversation more than you.
That's right.
That's a nice green dress.
That's a nice green dress, though, right?
Yeah.
Y'all are lovely.
It's almost too pretty and slender to cook well,
but I believe y'all.
Man.
Okay.
Now this,
I don't know.
I've completely lost control.
You know, we back.
You still want to play some games and stuff?
No, you know.
I made these buckwheat banana pancakes, though.
All right, so give me,
what's the easiest recipe to follow?
Are you still counting right now, attorney?
No, I was trying to find it in my.
She's texting for her second job.
Yeah.
Okay.
I see. Are you okay?
Yeah.
I don't believe that, but okay.
Secret second job?
Are you an agent?
Okay.
Internship.
Is it motherhood?
I'm sorry.
Okay, for the novices out there, what are the easiest recipes to follow?
Actually, that...
What's the miracle ingredient that you can make a billion things out of?
Good question.
Rice?
Yeah, but...
Oh, go ahead.
You can make a million things out of pasta.
There's a lot of good pasta dishes in there.
There's so many good pasta dishes in it.
There's also really, this is, I really like the potato crab grottin thing.
That's actually pretty simple.
It's super simple and you can show off and act like you are a real good chef because it tastes incredible.
It's got like the, you know, when you have like the garlic butter you dip lobster and crab, it's got that.
that in it with a potato grotten and the cheese.
It's incredible.
And it's not here.
No.
Okay.
We had like 20 of them today at the Today Show and we left them.
A win is a win.
A win is a win.
I don't care what you're saying.
Yep, that's me.
Clever 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.

I doctored the test once.
It took an army of internet detectives to crack the case.
I wanted people to be able to see what their tax dollars were being used for.
Sunlight's the greatest disinfected.
They would uncover a disturbing pattern.
Two more men who'd been through the same thing.
Greg Gillespie and Michael Naranjini.
My mind was blown.
I'm Stephanie Young.
This is Love Trap.
Laura, Scottsdale Police.
As the season continues, Laura Owens finally faces consequences.

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 2, 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.
They 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.
We also have a really easy fried chicken recipe in this book,
the naked fried wings.
Okay.
There's no bread on it, so you ain't got to, like, do all that.
And then if you want to be really ambitious,
you can make our seventh war of gumbo.
What's the hardest dish in here?
That one.
Seven war gumbo.
And can I just throw in?
Y'all have a hurricane recipe, which I really appreciate.
But is it different in some type of way,
or is it just a hurricane recipe?
And we just know.
It's just for people to have the hurricane recipe
to be able to go with, yeah,
to be able to go with the New Orleans dishes.
But you can find all the secrets
and the family table available for $30 everywhere
where books are sold.
It's on sale, some other places, for $19.99.
No, because our mom is from New Orleans, there's a whole chapter about New Orleans roots.
And so we have like a crawfish boil in there that's incredible.
Which actually the crawfish boil is pretty easy.
Yeah, that's easy too.
The oyster poikways are not that hard.
Also, there's a cauliflower corn chowder for vegetarians and that's really actually very easy.
That's vegan, too.
It can be vegan.
You take out the butter and you put in olive oil.
I thought it was vegan.
Did y'all do a bignet type situation?
We didn't do a bignet.
We did donuts, though.
Regular donuts.
And prolleens.
We got proleens.
So did you guys save anything for a follow-up book or?
No.
There's other stuff.
No, we're not doing another one.
Oh, wait.
No, we'll do like.
Well, hold on, candy.
This is the miseducation of Lauren Hill of books.
Are you getting the books?
Yeah, yeah.
Now we are done.
Y'all sound like a.
This book is everything.
I mean, but aside from that, like, I know Jake has other cookbooks he wants to do eventually.
I have other cookbooks I want to do eventually.
They're going to publish a tier three book with me and Jockey.
25 different ways to make a cassidia.
Easy stuff.
Grochee, sandwiches and peanut butter.
That's it with sell, y'all.
So when younger, what was the one meal that or one dish that you guys were absolutely tired of?
No.
How many ways can I?
Oh, you weren't allowed to?
I felt like we used to eat salmon so often that we all got sick of salmon.
We used to eat salmon in black beans a lot.
That sounds good.
Y'all don't have to eat liver.
There were times that our mother was.
I thought there were times that our mom was.
We would eat salmon cakes like from the-
With the potatoes in them?
No.
Oh.
We never get tired of there.
We used to eat the gravy from the liver.
Mama used to eat liver.
And Jazz used to eat pickled pigs feet.
I did eat pickled pigs feet.
What?
We used to eat salmon though a lot.
because it was really cheap at Costco.
I have a question.
You're allowed to eat pigs meat,
but you weren't allowed to use a microwave?
This is true.
That was later when microwaves were the thing.
Okay, I'm just saying.
No, mommy refused.
Like, sometimes she would put tape on the microwave.
Then she took the microwave out of the house.
I took the microwave out of my house now.
I still don't have a microwave about it.
I don't have a microwave either.
So when you get hungry real quick,
It's a warmer.
It's a warmer, like, that goes really fast.
You got a toaster oven?
You got a steamer, yo.
That's not real fast.
No, Jesse got a steamer, man.
There's a lining of water at the bottom of this microwave.
It's like a steam oven.
It looks like a microwave?
It's an oven.
It's a microwave.
It's like this big.
I mean.
And the rich people?
Damn, all right, Jazzy, do that.
You know.
Okay, I see.
We didn't have one of those growing up.
I didn't think so.
We ain't even had a skillet.
We had to cook that shit on our hands.
Finally got a piece of the pot.
And you used to eat chitlins, Jaws, right?
Chitlins?
That's disgusting.
Uncle Jeffrey would come over and bring those.
And they would smell up the entire house.
And they'd have chitlins over white rice with crystals hot sauce.
Every Christmas.
Every Christmas.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I'm not caping for it.
but the myth of chittling
smelling up the entire house.
They did.
I love that you did every show of the chitlings.
Because he's got to clean them.
No, he would bring them in a big white bucket.
That's what they come in, everybody.
Yeah.
And they stink.
And you clean them downstairs.
You clean them downstairs.
The laundry.
What's a bucket?
What?
The what?
The laundry.
The utility.
The utility.
We didn't have that.
We didn't have that.
We didn't have that.
You sound fancy.
You clean them in the,
She's from D.C.
She's all the maids are clean, though.
She's from D.C.
B.G. County shit, my bad.
She got a basement in a rec room.
No, rec room.
I have to boy, you know.
Okay, so, ladies and gentlemen, it's about that time.
Oh, shit.
For that moment.
Don't get your black carderable.
Is that the TV show?
I mean, no place, child.
Anyway.
Oh, my God.
What's that?
What's that?
That's from 2-27.
I don't know.
So there's a show on BET called Black Cardo.
I was like, is that from that?
No, I decided to compete against Flats.
That's actually, no, Seth Herazog's own lyrics.
I did that earlier.
Yeah.
That is right?
Take your credit, son.
I killed it.
I killed it.
Anyway.
Killed it on the production.
So being as though we are, these are two families, the QLS family and the Swallet family.
I think we should play
around a black card
even though
I know we were at a disadvantage
I think yeah fucking
yeah no but the thing is
is that you
Bill
yes sir
unpaid Bill you've been
around us enough
and you've been
Steve is who I'm worried about
you've been a disciple
wait time out
but time out though
time out though
umpay Bill has been a disciple
of Afonte

font is true
so he should know enough
and let's not forget
who gave
Steve, his monica.
Who gave him diabetes?
Oh, wow.
I still got Bill over Steve.
I'm in the Black Hall of Fame over here.
You are on.
He worked on voodoo.
He worked on voodoo.
I mean, come on.
And he has diabetes.
Okay.
All right.
We go on diabetes.
We go to get some diabetes.
Let's go.
When black carbby vote, that's what you got to do.
You got to temporary pets.
So how does this work?
Yeah.
Do we take two?
Turned answer?
Have you, y'all never, you said you never played?
I like how you guys don't are comfortable with uncharted territory.
I've never played.
I get to just like.
Come in the circle, Fonte.
Basically, Seth is going to read a question to each squad and we're going to compete for.
Oh, so Seth is the referee.
Yeah, Seth, her.
You're neutral.
Host moderator, yeah.
So he's the lowering the standards.
He's the Jew host.
Do you keep score?
The dungeon master, does that make sense?
I'll keep score.
I'll keep score.
Boss Bill will keep short.
So welcome to.
All right.
So this is officially.
Don't get your black,
honorable.
With pink people.
I mean,
no place, child.
Oh.
That part kills me.
That part kills me.
That kills me.
I'm going to get laid.
They don't need to say white people.
Ain't nobody white.
They pink.
Or peach?
They're not white.
Or peach?
Yeah, I'm just a light brown.
Exactly.
It's light a shade of brown.
There you go.
There you go.
That's cool.
Pink power.
Mother of Pearl.
Actually, I want to say
this is the first time
that the Jewish side of the family
has outnumbered the black side of the family.
What are you talking about?
We're all your family.
Yes.
Are you Jewish?
But this is the first time
that these two have complained that
No, when your mother is.
The mom is Jewish.
Yeah, with your mom.
Okay, I forgot.
Just for the record, we complain about everything.
Not just that.
A lot of, a lot of.
A lot of oppressed people in the group right now.
That's a good summarization.
Race is a construct made up by the man to oppress us and separate us from each other.
You better say it.
You're talking good.
I said, Jazz.
Can we see my grandmother?
On that.
Jazz, you dot me as your grandson, please.
It is done.
Just got all these idioms and pearls of wisdom.
Okay, can you read the first question on?
Do I read?
I mean, no place, child.
So do we like do a buzzer?
Do we say, ooh, we're doing.
Well, he's going to ask our guest, the spots are going to go first.
Do I do the ABCD?
Yes, you read the question, give your ABCD, and then make.
But do they confer like the family feud?
Yeah.
Okay, dig.
So then, okay.
Or should they go one at a time?
No, we can just go first.
We're family feud.
We don't play well.
How do we confer?
Come on, Joe.
Let's ask you that.
All right.
Jesse gets to the first
taboo days.
No, we confer.
We confer.
Come on.
So we don't shout it out.
All right.
Let's do it, y'all.
You'll figure it out.
Jesse small.
Wait, answer this question.
Before we start, before we start,
can I just read the instructions?
Yes, Bill, thank you.
The how to play says, you know how we do.
Make your own rules and play the way you want.
That's what you're going to do anyway.
That is amazing.
That is the blackest.
That is the blackest.
That is the black.
That's real.
I mean, no place, child.
Let's go.
All right.
First one.
What does it mean if your ear keeps itching?
You made a wish.
Someone's talking about you.
I know.
Someone's talking about you.
Y'all?
That was for Jesse, though.
That was for Jesse.
Make your own rules.
That's what you're going to do anyway.
And that is actually correct.
Yeah, B.
Somebody's talking about you.
We ain't got our black card revoked.
Not yet.
All right.
So, C.
What does this prove?
that they're black actually wait I think the rules is that we start at 10 and for each
when you get incorrect answer you get a point for vote okay so the first to reach zero they
lost all right so this one's for the shug yeah all right in what city did rosa parks
refused to move to the back of the bus to skislea alabama Birmingham Alabama Jackson
Mississippi or Montgomery Alabama are we allowed to answer they all answer together
we're not to answer together are we making our own rule I don't know how do you need help
Do you need help?
Do you need help?
It's Montgomery.
That is actually correct.
Montgomery.
Okay.
Okay.
Jazz is like that.
So jazz.
Yes.
Approximity how long did Sophia have to fight?
That's exactly right.
All her life.
She didn't even need the ABCD.
I know.
That's a really good one.
This might be easy black hardware.
Yeah, exactly.
Unpaid Bill
What year did cash money records take over?
Give a year.
It's either 2001 to 2002,
99 to 2000, 97 to 98,
04 to 05.
Can I call a black person?
No.
You got to reach into your black heart.
Oh, I thought that was your question, Bill.
That's not your question.
There's no conferring?
I mean, read his opposite.
One more time, please.
O1 to O2.
Think of the song.
99 to 2000, 97 to 98.
04 to 05.
9798.
No.
No.
We only have a song for our people.
Yeah.
No, 99 to 2000.
Wait, what's the song for when you get it taken away?
Yeah.
We didn't make one.
I was throwing it up, I was trying.
I was throwing up.
You know what?
Negro signs to build.
I mean, it's a B.
We just lost two points down to 18.
That ain't no excuse me.
A lot of people would have known that ain't.
You cannot lose something that was never yours.
That's okay, Bill.
That was a hard way.
Jake, Jake.
Jake.
Jake.
Relax.
It is Jake Stern.
It's an easy one.
Go ahead.
Jake.
Yes.
Who is Oprah's best friend?
Oh.
Now look at the options are.
Two options.
Tyler Perry.
Tyler Perry, Stedman Graham, Cisley Tyson, or Gail King?
I would have known this.
I'll go with Gilgang.
There we.
It could be day-to-day.
It could be her.
But yes, it's Gal-Ging.
You're right.
You're right.
You're right.
Stedman's gone or what?
I don't know.
He's just her man.
He's not her best.
He's a cardboard cutout, I thought.
Yeah.
All right.
Yo-oh.
You, you better watch it.
I'm about to embarrass me.
Boss Bill.
Yes, sir.
What year was interracial marriage legalized?
Are you kidding?
What?
That's a real.
What's the real history?
What year was interracial marriage legalized?
He said, Steve.
If you saw the movie.
Is this mother-haven?
I didn't see loving yet.
Give me the years.
It's either 64, 52, 73, or 67.
Oh.
I know.
I know.
I hate y'all.
Colonialism of motherfucker.
If they have a certain amount of time,
can we take it on them?
Give me the choices.
64, 54, 52, 73, or 67.
I'm gonna go with A.
You're gonna go with 64?
Yeah. It was 67.
You just don't believe me.
That's all right.
Because you're just holding up.
67 was the opposite?
You're holding up six fingers.
I would have been like, oh, wait, no, that's seven.
Are y'all allowed to tell each other the answer?
No, no.
But we can make our own rules.
We make our own rules.
We make our own.
Do you know what the song should be when you lose it?
It should be, don't call me.
Nick
White
Okay, I'll just have it to queue up

Journey was four.
All right?
Yes.
I like Nogies, but wait a minute.
You can't even fit a minute.
I totally forgot to ask a brother acting career.
Meanwhile, I'm like, Jojo, you had locks on the show?
Yeah.
I used to have a mad crush on you.
That's crazy.
Jojo had higher Q ratings than John Stamos.
I believe that's true.
We did.
Real shit.
But where the fuck is I'm fuller on our own?
Boycott Netflix.
Hashton.
You're Monique right there.
I said a fool on our own.
Wait a minute.
If ever the opportunity presented itself, would y'all even consider it?
If they made on our own, 2018 B.
On our own?
For real.
On our owner?
On our own again.
I mean, still on.
But we were on for one season.
So I just wouldn't trust.
Hit up to TV.
Y'all know we never asked y'all what's with the J.
Is that your mommy?
Is that J?
Yeah, my mom was Janet and our dad was Joel.
And then they named Jojo Joel Jr.
He's a junior.
And then when Jazz came, I think they just, yeah, let's just continue this.
Wow, jealous.
James Ingram.
Okay, thank you.
He also has a lot.
He has six kids.
They have six kids and they're all Jays.
Right.
George Foreman.
George Foreman.
They're all george.
They're also all G-E-E-O-R-E.
But that wasn't the George Jesse was referring to.
Wait, what?
Earlier. That's not the same George.
Bitch-ass George.
Oh, no.
Amir, can I have that drink?
Sure, you can have some drink.
All right, who has the next question?
Jojo.
It's Jojo's turn.
All right, ready?
Eight to ten small.
In which city was Martin Luther King killed?
Atlanta, Birmingham, Washington.
or Memphis.
Memphis.
That's exactly right.
That's right.
Jodo ain't going to get nothing
history wrong.
No, he's certainly not.
He's a smart motherfucker.
Joe for president.
Y'all, my wife is over there.
My wife is over there.
My wife is over there saying
when she wants to go to sleep, she can't sleep,
I started reading the lullabies from American history.
But he's absolutely serious.
No, he's serious.
He's very serious.
That's this big ass red book.
And it's really a lullaby of America?
No, no.
He just reads it.
I ain't believe in nothing y'all saying.
You up, Amir?
Our turn.
My turn.
Wait, wait, wait.
What's the score?
All three of y'all got it?
Yeah, y'all still black.
We all missed.
We all screwed up.
I'm still black.
Yeah, Steve made it.
Steve got it.
Steve's the only one who got it.
We're not black.
We're not black.
We still are going to win.
Amir, who?

As was C.C.
Wine.
What song?
Don't cry for me.
Oh.
What part did you guys had?
Have it.
The light.
That album right there.
Say the world from darkness.
Hey.
People.
Hold up the light.
They got this.
I'm sorry.
We're going to be in America.
That was a good record.
We didn't need to know backgrounds, huh?
Yes.
He sure was.
Boys and girls.
Show me in the seats.
We love you.
We love you wedding.
Okay.
Now Journey's turn.
I love it.
We guys are all in one car.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was a suburban.
We used to have,
we used to have like the portable,
the portable TV,
uh,
um,
The portable TVs that you plug into the lighter.
And we used to literally watch Martin and Fresh Prince of Bel Air or repeat.
We would tape them off the TV.
I do that now.
I do that in 2018.
See, I was going to bring the Martin Trivy game but didn't know that.
This was in later years, though, again, because this is when they had their white privilege.
We initially were traveling in a Dotson.
This is no good.
That's not moving out.
Yeah.
We didn't have.
We didn't have no TV up in the spot with Martin and I love Lucy.
Okay, we ain't even had one of them damn visors with a mirror on it.
There was no visor in the passenger door.
That shit that would have to roll down like that.
Oh, we had that shit in the Jeep.
Yeah.
Are y'all excited about the Martin reboot?
Y'all know they're doing that.
Is that really happening?
Is that happening?
I'm scared of that.
The T-Shia and T-J is on a pilot.
So I'm confused.
She's on Regina King's new pilot.
Why did they fake us out?
Because they was on social media
and it was all three of them.
Yeah, that show got canceled.
The Regina show.
No, she got another one.
Oh, she has another one for ABC.
She has a pilot.
I missed that.
Okay, gotcha.
What is it?
No, he's, I was telling them it was a pilot.
But maybe it's coming later
because that's not like they've actually started something.
It just looked like they came from a meeting
where they agreed, we're going to do this.
They didn't say when we was going to do this.
I just like, what about Tommy?
There's a lot of ways that to go.
Is Tracy Morgan going to come?
Tom.
We're a man from the fifth row.
That's obvious it work.
They got to do a whole Roseanne.
If they can't get everybody, you might not be ready.
Oh, yeah, Rosanna.
Yeah.
So, can we have Journey's question?
I'm sorry.
Ready?
When grandma tells you to wrench it off, what do you need to complete the task?
Do you need a wrench, lots of salt, hot sauce, or water?
Yes, probably.
He's saying wrench it off.
Water?
That's right.
Damn.
One time I went to a waffle house.
What time?
I could not got that one time back in Atlanta, I went to a waffle house,
and I was ordering the food, and this was really on the menu.
I said, can I have a salad with chicken breasts on it,
but can I have it with no salt?
And she said, she said,
where the chicken already made, you want me to have a wrench it all?
Oh, wrench it all.
Oh, rich.
Did I say it wrong?
No, you said it perfect.
Now we get it.
I see.
Thank you, Jesse, for that explanation.
I appreciate it.
I want the spelling be.
Y'all do know you can't beat us, right?
Because we have a perfect score.
No, fuck that.
I could just do.
I could play for everybody.
No.
What?
Whose team is he on?
I'm on our team.
I'm on QL.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, I'm curious.
Yeah, yeah, I'm curious.
Oh.
That was an invitation.
Get her Fonse.
He got it coming.
Come on.

I was just wondering if we were slitting and like that.
No, no, no.
Now, now, this is the nation of Wakanda.
Y'all the nation of Wellanda.
Oh, wow.
Oh, shots fired.
Why must we do that?
We look more like the nation of Wakanda.
We do.
Shots fired.
Shots fired.
We like Warren.
I'm a pair of a shot of jail, California dream.
We're in alcohol, the life from the West Side playing from the Kansas

Hide your kids, hide your wife.
They're raping everybody.
That's what I'm talking about.
That was an easy one.
Back to jazz.
Anyone who watches the internet will know that.

Well, so is Malcolm X.
I'm messing up.
I'm losing my black car.
Let's go.
It's inspired by us.
Wait.
Wait, really.
It's back on Steve's turn again.
Steve, I forgot.
So we go on another round?
This is too much pressure.
Well, we're going at least to 20.
This is going to be.
one of those ones that everyone's going to know but
you and I can't wait.
That's going to suck.
This is the second round.
I'm going to prepare for failure.
Oh, you're saying make it harder.
We weren't conferring.
Well, we can make it harder and go to.
Wait, you got because
are we allowed to?
Yeah.
Let's confer.
I'm not sitting on that.
Thanks a lot.
That's a good time to make it harder.
Let's have the teams confer.
Fine.
All right.
But wait, if we do that, then I want to go to the hard cards.
The harder cards.
All right, yeah, I'm with it.
So Steve's not going to guess this one.
Wait, wait, no, no, no.
Here's the thing.
Steve has to finish this one because jazz did that one.
So we have to make it either.
Wow.
Ghosties.
Okay, okay.
I see you, Steve.
I love you, Steve.
I see you now.
Now I see you.
I'm going to bring you your coffee, boo-boo-boo.
I feel like your C-U is different.
Which character from Martin lived on the fifth floor?
I actually just said his name.
I don't know.
You see, you have to listen to the show.
That is so easy, Steve.
I knew everyone's going to know.
I want to shout it.
Oh, he doesn't get multiple choice?
Oh, yeah, multiple choice.
Ready?
Roscoe, hustleman,
Dragonfly Jones, or Pramann?
Let me cue this song, though.
Doesn't ring a bell?
It's okay, Steve.
It's okay.
Yeah,
Mark, Steve.
Again, give him, give him his eyes.
absence again. Okay. Bramann, Dragonfire Jones,
hustleman, or Roscoe? That is in a different order than you gave me last time.
I went down and I went up the other one. No. He just fucking went doing everything.
Again, read it down with you man. It's bro man.
How'd you know that?
No. It's because he changed the order. The referee changed the order.
The referee changed the roots.
When he first said it, it's rigged.
I think he's never said it.
You said, bruh, man.
And the emphasis on bruh, let him know what it is.
Oh, come on.
Then, then he read it back with broughman first.
Seth.
I didn't want to see my guys emphasizing one of the other.
All right, hear me.
Yeah.
He did.
He said bro man.
That's not correct.
It's fine.
It's fine.
You are great.
Recount.
It's the closest Steve is going to get the brus.
I'm proud of him.
I'm proud.
A recant.
Y'all are still winning.
I don't know why you're going.
I really think that there should be,
in all seriousness, there should be a Jewish card
revoked. I would be interested in that.
New business venture.
There should be a bluish card revoked.
Lenny Kravitz, Drake, Lisa, Bonnet,
Zoe Kravins, the Spallet,
all of these bluish motherfuckers walking around.
Wait, cat grim.
Yeah, Cat Grim.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, now I get it.
Okay.
Now you get what?
Jordan Sparks.
Jordan Sparks as well.
Oh, I know Joe Sparks.
I didn't know.
Jazz, I think you're not for me.
Jax, I'm not sure.
Sparks isn't a Jewish name.
I've seen her mom.
No, her daddy is black.
But her mom.
But she loves the Lord a lot.
Yes.
Just so you know, it's pro man.
Okay, that's how it's pronounced.
Not brumman.
Not, Steve.
You already won.
Let me go.
Not.
Not.
Not.
Not.
Shut the fuck up.
You already won.
Quitting while you're here.
It is not queen.
All right.
Jake, finish this phrase.
Beans, greens, potatoes, tomatoes.
Oh, man, come on, that's easy.
And is?
Give them the options.

I'll give you the options.
The options are.
Where the options are.
Burritos, Doritos, let's cook, you name it.
What's the end of the phrase?
Those are the options.
Wait, wait.
Now, if they miss one, can we steal it?
Nigger, I'm asking a question.
If they miss the question, can we steal it?
Oh, we can't.
Maybe we can change that for the next round, brother.
Nope, but I know.
I'm getting ready to play the song next.
I'm getting ready for this song next.
I'm getting ready to.

And now the options are the next word is either burritos,
Doritos, Let's Cook, or you name it.
You name it.
That's exactly right.
I feel like the way, okay.

He was trying, brother.
They're getting the really easy ones.
Is there just beans, green potatoes, tomatoes?
That was an example.
Lamb, ram, hogs, dog, chicken turkey.
Yeah, that's why.
There are a lot of beans and tomatoes and some greens in the family table.
Yes.
Bring it back.
That's right.
Bring it back.

I don't want to confirm.
Y'all, because they got to lose something.
What if they're wrong?
This round ain't done.
No.
Oh, we got to do him.
We got to finish the round.
This is the harder.
The harder questions.
All right.
Which artist once rhymed mansion with Wisconsin?

Because I don't want to make it seems like
I'm exercising one or the other.
It mixes it up.

I would not believe it.
I would have a black bar.
You don't know that.
Definitely.
When I hear it, I will remember.
I was a step or son.
Oh, man.
I feel like this is where the point is going to be lost.
You're really good.
Was your grandmother black?
No, but my stepmother's black.
Does that count?
Yes, absolutely.
Wait, what?
What?
A win is a win.
A win is a win.

Yep, that's me.

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.
They 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.

Like, that I do.
Is that what he is?
He's talking about Sesame Street.
You work on Sesame Street?
Yeah.
He is Durabu.
It's amazing.
Y'all, can we go visit Sesame Street tomorrow with Nila?
Wait, is Sesame Street a place, though?
Or is it just Sesame Place?
Because Nila keeps asking me, Mommy, can we go to Sesame Street?
But I'd say, I don't know that is an amusement place.
But that we went to before.
You can get us on Sesame Street.
He is a city.
He is the gay keep.
Can we please come to visit Sesame Street?
Yo, he's all things musical.
What time you go to work tomorrow?
Only if you let me win the fucking black card.
Yeah.
Nice play.
With you competitive motherfuckers,
come and let me win.
Maybe you become successful.
No way.
Maybe.

But now, apparently, I'll have one.
I just got mine.
Yeah, I'm on it.
Have you heard Boss Bill?
It's amazing.
It goes like this.
No.
It's only when he gets angry.
The song thing is like the tears in our, um, food.
Boss Bill is getting angry.
Angry.
Angry.
So much anger.
That's great.
I get pissed off.
So much anger.
But you guys have been.
He's making him lap all episode.
He has no reason to get angry.
By the way, you guys should know that those lovely boys of all our themes is Fonte,
because he is like motherfucking super dope.
That's right.
I mean, right.
Super rap and super single.
You know what I'm saying?
Anyway.

Oh.
Oh, man.
That's the only day we can go to Sesame Street.
we can go to Sesame
motherfucking street.
I do miss the old song.
Oh, they don't use that song no more?
I kind of want to be there to see them.
The original?
It's not that.
It's a different rhythm.
It's a different rhythm.
I hate Sesame Street.
I hate Sesame Street.
I hate it's a different melody.
Why would you say something like that?
I hate the theme song.
Why?
Wait, it would have been late it.
I hate that.
The song is around before the baby is around.
She loves it.
I just am used to the old ones.
So you know how you...
Nostalgia.
It just makes me mad.
I hate something.
I got used to it now.
And theme songs were always better in the 70s and 80s.
And I love the, it's the letter of the day.
Like...
Wait, if y'all are all from here, does anybody remember Bionic Six?
No.
Why would that be just from here?
Because we lived in New York when you used to watch it.

Easy.
We need a game that we can stuff each other.
Are these the advanced car?
Yeah.
Why don't even read the options?
It would be offensive to read out.
What day did Kretta Scott King and Martin
with the King get married?
That's the question I'm going to get.
That's a question I'm going to get.
Like, we should do around where we just battle each other like with.

There was a point where I didn't know if kid had the bad breath or
Kid did not have bad breath.
He was the star of the movie.
Thank you.
I was thinking that, yeah.
Martin was the only one or Blow was the only one that didn't have a girl.
No, he didn't.
He didn't.
Play didn't either.
Not play, yeah.
Because he tried to kiss the rain and it didn't work.

Layehan, ready?
Yes.
What does Mary J. Blige not want in her dancerie?
That's right.
That's right.
Or moderation.
Matter of fact, to really make it advanced,
you shouldn't even read the options.
Are you right?
Yeah, you just have to know it.
That's really hard.
But if we're conferring, we should be able to do that.
Exactly.
If we are black.
Yes.
All right.
So no options.
No options.
We got no food.
Y'all made the damn book

You should get 10 seconds.
New edition.

The creator of the game.

what the right answer.
I'll just have the answer to the microphone.

Chest.

Yes.
Because it's chess.
With the motherfucking rules.
Game point.
No, no.
It says what comes next.
So it's chest, pants, and shoes, so you lose.
What's the answer?
Chest is the answer.
Not really.
Thank you.
But I don't know how you want to score that.
Since Steve never said chess.
Steve never said it,
you're not only, but he, you tried to tell him,
but as his team member, he still said he committed
and he said, no, I am saying that.
No, but it's not as the first person.
It's true. It's true.
It matters whoever gets the answer right, right?
Wait, we lost a point?
Yes, he got wrong.
He got a wrong.
But he answered it right.
Wait, that's scary.
So we'll get, Russell and he still has to answer it.
I didn't.
Oh, it was his question.
Yes.
So he has to answer it.
No, that's not right.
It was right from, I actually do wipe my stuff down in that order, so I got confused.
Shoulder's all right.
Ain't nobody blaming you, brother.
You got to get the stuff off the pants first.
That's true.

We also don't know a motherfucking thing about Hanukkah.
The answer is emotional.
The answer is emoja.
The answer is emojis.
We're close, but you're mojia.
Close.
Do you understand, though?
It doesn't make me feel like I'm not bad.
You were not.
That's true, niggas.
I was that close.
You were so close, Jesse.
I was so close.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, how does his not count when he was that close?
No.
When you said, hey,eration, he did a holleration.
And he over there saying,
Bro man.
Yeah, that's a bro man.
He's a bro man.
I appreciate y'all defending my honor
as a black man scholar.
But the emojis.
At a smaller.
I'm going to let that go because I was wrong.
And as a black man, I can admit such things.
But Joe, you got his back though.
That's what's up, yo.
That's what brothers do.
But emoji, you can't really pick the mocha.
I thought he said emoji.
The way he mispronounce.
the vial the O was a U.
He said a mootee.
That's right.
You're talking about
miles and eight.
This is true.
Very true.
This is seven to eight.
Y'all still winning.
Y, it's true.
Give it to us.
This is a good question.
This is hard.
Let me just say this.
It's amazing when even your
failures are only based
on your own
success.
Oh, Lord.
Who is it?
Who are we all?
Is it your turn?
It's our turn.
It's my turn.
It's on something.
Bill.
Can we just talk?
Wait, time out.
This is the bucket that had the chillins in and this is Jojo's so happy about sweet potato pies.
I don't know what the fuck.
Yeah, he's happy about some sweet potato pies.
Wait, I don't know.
If we got the question right, don't we get the point?
That's ice cream.
Yeah, you do.
Yeah, we do get the point.
You know, I'm so happy about ice cream.
You get the point.
You took it, y'all.
No, no, no.
It's not.
You get the point.
It's eight to nine.
It's eight to nine.
It's eight to nine.
Jojo, this shit's too funny.
If you steal the question, you get the point.
You get a point back.
You don't get a point off.
You don't get a point off.
They just get.
Guess what?
That means you got to be commercial.
We have 10.
Oh, no, we have nine.
We have nine.
Put that.
Mike back on that point.
Never mind.
We have like 25.
Wait, wait.
We got nine, right?
You know what I think?
I think that we should set one more round and then be done with this shit.
I know.
Seriously.
Four more rounds.
No.
I'm doing a bit.
I'm done now.
I was done a few questions.
Ready?
Put the book down.
I'm ready to go.
What the fuck doesn't matter?
Stop as a fucking tomato.
Jesse always lasts when he cuts tomatoes.
It's the funniest fucking tomatoes.
Go ahead.
Who was the first?
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
I don't want no hateration on no motherfucking holleration in this dance of reed.
Oh, my cutlery.
Let's go.
Who was the first self-made female millionaire in the U.S.?
Yeah.
Ah, yeah.
Oprah.
That's right.
Who was it?
I know.
It's not, you know.
No, it's Madam C.J. Walker.
Oh.
Yeah.
You got to say, Madam C.J. Walker.
That's exactly right.
Yes. Oprah.
I can't believe I said that.
Y'all.
Nobody said Oprah.
Yes.
Nobody said, Oprah.
I ain't doing that to text in my brother's sister thing today.
You said billionaire.
Nobody over here.
Oh, you said.
Oh, you already said Oprah.
You said Oprah.

I thought you said.
I thought you said,
Bill, get the hair, man, get the hair right.
So we had nine, no.
It's no eight, okay.
The first black female men.
You need it.
This is to you guys, Jojo.
How many times did Outcast apologize to Ms. Jackson?
Yes, all.
Oh, I know.
A thousand times, Jojo.
I apologize
A trillion
Oh, a trillion
I'm sorry,
Ms. Jackson
It's a trillion
Yeah, they apologize
It's hard to hear
A trillion times is right
It was a trillion times
I thought it was a thousand to

Sure
Yeah please
I thought we would go to it
Bill's having fun.
Boss Bill is getting happy.
The happy is it's the happy
I've never been in the history of the show.
Love gets them weak in the knees.
Oh, man.
Who is it?
Oh, that's so easy.
Wait, say it again.
Love gets them weak in the knees.
That's so easy.
Can't believe your love and makes me weak.
Oh, yeah, can't.
No, it could be a billion people.
Can't believe how your love it makes me weak.
I get so weak in the knees.
I can hardly speak.
I lose all control.
It could have been scary too.
Okay, so, ladies and gentlemen, I have completely lost control of my once intellectual podcast.

No.
What was the reference?
I thought that was the reference.
It just got quite.
It was from when Biggie Smalls was on Martin and Gina and Pam
wanted to be back up singers.
And she said, I'm going to just be over here, Dustin.
And she sang in the background.
That's a black car room.

My dad gave me the best advice ever.
He goes, just give it a shot.
But if you ever reach a point where you're banging your head against the wall,
and it doesn't feel fun anymore, it's okay to quit.
If you saw it written down, it would not be an inspiration.
It would not be on a calendar of, you know, the cat.
Just hang in there.
Yeah, it would not be.
Right, it wouldn't be that.
There's a lot of luck.
