Starting point is 00:00:00 What's up everybody and welcome to another episode of flagrant to no easy buckets analysis by assholes water cooler commentary for your sports needs. I'm Andrew Schultz. I'm here with Akash Singh real life cast. We got Alex Alex media is out of the studio today. We'll see him again for the Patreon episode. But got edin we got edin martinez here on the ones and twos doing both of them and um guys you know how we're gonna do it we're gonna start it off with with our flagrant thought of the week i i had a a kind of annoying week because i've been getting death threats from somalis for the last fucking seven days straight because i put out this i'll i mean you guys probably all heard the bit. First of all, I just want to point out, they're like female general mutilation or whatever. It's a joke about cutting off clits, right?
Starting point is 00:00:53 You said it so matter-of-factly. Well, yeah, it is. And it's like, I made it. I made it while, I did it while I was in Toronto. What I posted is just the setup and a riff. That's not even the whole bit. That's what I was thinking. I was amazed that you were getting death threats over that.
Starting point is 00:01:09 I'll let you guys hear the joke. It goes, this is the joke. You've got to be happy, ladies. Every one of you in here still got your clit. Every one. Oh, gosh. Maybe some of the Somali chicks not, but the most of you. What?
Starting point is 00:01:23 What? Respect their culture. Okay?? What? Respect their culture. Okay? Malachi, respect their culture. All right? Jesus Christ. If you're missing your clit, just take a little piece of your forehead and put it down. Now, that's me riffing.
Starting point is 00:01:42 That's funny. This is an audience Of 1200 people Everybody's laughing We're having a good time I don't think people Ask how many Somali fans I have Yeah
Starting point is 00:01:49 Like if you go Outside of America Like Africans That have been like Forced out of Africa Right Like if I'm in England
Starting point is 00:02:00 Or whatever The Somalis come out Like if I'm in like Toronto It doesn't matter They always come out. Nobody had a problem with this joke. So who would send you the death threats
Starting point is 00:02:10 from one of the Somalis? This one was fucking impressive. I was dying to hear this. You want me to read it? Andrew tweeted it was poetic. You want me to fucking... Please, read that shit. Read the name too, fuck them.
Starting point is 00:02:21 All right, so, okay. You fucking bitch. All right, I like it so far. That's a All right. So, okay. You fucking bitch. All right. I like it so far. That's a nice setup. Yeah, I like it. If I ever catch you making FGM jokes, they have their own slang for female genital mutilation. It's so common.
Starting point is 00:02:37 They write it so often that they LOL'd it. They have their own little shot of it. Jokes about Somali girls. If you fucking white cunt, I will personally kill you with my bare hands. You no good for nothing. Sick, degenerate, dog-kissing, sister-fucking, white, swine-consuming.
Starting point is 00:02:59 I like how eating pork is up there with incest. In their minds. That eating pork is just as with incest in their minds. That eating pork is just as bad as fucking your sister. Pork breath cunt. You're a dead man. I hope you know that. Keep a close look over the next Somali you see.
Starting point is 00:03:15 I hope they stick a knife so deep in your jugular. Jesus Christ. Your slave master ancestors can smell your pork breath back to the pork since they're rotting in their grave and ending up in hell. Yeah, yeah, where are they? Yada, yada, yada! Where you will be heading soon.
Starting point is 00:03:36 You white bastards think you are really doing something dehumanizing our women as if your white bitches and whores don't have filthy, diseased, maggots filled, rotten, putrid pussies. First of all, you guys are the ones dehumanizing your women, but we're not gonna get that. That was my first thought. I will draw blood from you you white cunt. Your days on this earth are numbered. Go molest some kids like the rest of your race. This is all the same person?
Starting point is 00:03:59 Same person. Or go fuck your sister, Wills. You're at it, you son of a white pussy stinking bitch. I will kill you. Mark my words. So I received, this is the most like beautiful one. I mean, this is like, it was just so beautiful. Like this guy is so talented.
Starting point is 00:04:22 What's his name? It's a shame that he has to cut off clits for a living i was like oh sons let me tell you something uh so i was receiving so many of these somali twitter got on it and it's so dope because like is there an fgm twitter no no fg uh yeah you right you're right there's there no no. This is afterwards, after I posted the bits. Online hate. It's so funny because there's this division between woke Somali Twitter and just regular Somali people. Regular Somali people are sending the joke. They're saying funny jokes like, honestly, I was the most offended by the forehead thing.
Starting point is 00:05:10 They're just having a good time with this the majority of people are just enjoying it but then the woke somali community got on it and oh my god they were going fucking crazy and i had all these tweets talking about how fucking insensitive it was like how dare you that is so insensitive to make fun of field mutilation field general mut. And my flagrant thought of the week is, you know what else is insensitive right now? You know what else has no sensitivity whatsoever? You know what else will have zero sensation? I almost feel like me laughing. A little piece of clit just sitting on a rock roasting in the Somalian sun. God damn.
Starting point is 00:05:46 I almost feel like me laughing is going to get me in that threat. But just the big one, Elizabeth. Here's the thing. Why would you want to kill me and not the people cutting the clits off? Like, if there's an order of operations, if there's a pen toss for what you cut off, right? You would definitely go first with the people that are mut what you cut off, right? You would definitely go first with the people that are mutilating
Starting point is 00:06:07 these women, right? And I don't ever want to explain jokes to people because I realize once we explain jokes we're playing an away game. We're not playing away games. We're just leaning into our home game. We're comedians is what we're joking around about. But the fact that they could be so furious at a joke
Starting point is 00:06:24 that is about really, it's a big forehead joke. Really? When you think about, no, no. Cause the joke is, the joke is actually,
Starting point is 00:06:32 I mean, all right, fuck it. We'll explain the slightest bit of the joke just so they understand. The joke is ladies in the West be wish you should be so grateful of what you have because there are women out there that are getting their clits cut off. I'm actually using the severity of FGM. I love that it's FGM.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Dude, I can't. Is that the episode title? Obviously. Next time we're in Somalia, we have to stay at the FGM Grand. And here it is. The greatest hotel. the greatest hotel so so the fact that
Starting point is 00:07:05 the fact that they could even turn this into being worse than the act itself people are so so crazy to me
Starting point is 00:07:13 but that was my flagrant thought of the week my gosh I don't even know how I could follow that well I was explaining
Starting point is 00:07:22 the odd cost before nah I'm not even you don't want to come after the. Nah, I'm not even kidding. You don't want to come after the clip. You know who's not coming after the clip? So, I'm kind of in the doghouse today, right? I was kind of in the doghouse.
Starting point is 00:07:41 Can we have that as our eh-eh-eh? We got a little buzzword. When shit starts going down. We start tapping it. I like it. Jesus Christ. So I got in the doghouse today. I came home yesterday.
Starting point is 00:07:52 I went to a party. Alex was there. You're still in the doghouse? Sort of. I'm a little bit out now, but yesterday I was for sure in the doghouse. So I got stupid drunk yesterday. Like OD drunk. I haven't been this drunk In like A long time Okay
Starting point is 00:08:06 And I got home around like And day party drunks are different Cause like you still got the whole night ahead of you You think it's late And it's not It sucks Oh yeah
Starting point is 00:08:13 So I got home like 10pm And you know My pregnant girl's at home Chilling Watching me And I fell asleep Pretty early right
Starting point is 00:08:22 Before Euphoria and everything Couldn't even watch my show right And I woke up And I seen she was sleeping on the couch Right I fell asleep pretty early, right? Before Euphoria and everything. Couldn't even watch my show, right? And I woke up, and I seen she was sleeping on the couch. Right. And I'm like, oh, shit, I must have been so drunk. I was, like, spread out on the bed or whatever and, like, completely, you know, not regarding her or whatever. So, you know, this afternoon, like, right before I come in, she goes, you know why I was really mad at you yesterday?
Starting point is 00:08:44 I was like why she's like when you were asleep you were like eating out your hand and I'm like what like eating like food out of my hands like no like you were asleep like going like like licking your hand like it was a vagina like in my sleep like while I was a vagina, like, in my sleep, like, while I was incredibly, incredibly drunk. How long has it been, bro? What do you mean, how long has it been? Since you guys boned, because that's what this is. Nah, I mean, we still,
Starting point is 00:09:14 we still. You having pregnant sex? Yeah. I heard it's better like that, too. It's great. I hear DJ Envy swears by it. Listen, it's like Steph Curry throwing a shot up and walking her way. Moisture, wet. It's wet. Like, you know it's like Steph Curry throwing a shot up and walking her way. Moisture. Wet. It's wet.
Starting point is 00:09:27 You know it's it. But what do you do with the belly? I'm not going to get into the supernets. Anyway, I'll say all that to say. It's just, it is a unique thing, right? I mean, it is unique. Yo, DJ Envy, I was on The Breakfast Club, and I mean it is unique DJ Envy I was on the breakfast club And he said
Starting point is 00:09:47 It is his favorite time To have sex How many kids does he have? Five, three Jeez He has a few kids But he He said
Starting point is 00:09:54 He like stopped the interview He goes no Pregnant pussy Is how he described it Was his favorite pussy Fantastic And he did say it was the most wet Fantastic
Starting point is 00:10:03 Right So I'm My flagrant thought Is not so much a thought But it was the most wet. Fantastic. Right. So, my flagrant thought is not so much a thought, but it's like a flagrant question. Right. I felt bad, but then I laughed.
Starting point is 00:10:12 But like, is that cheating? Is it? Nah, you could have been eating hers for all you know. I don't like, You don't even remember.
Starting point is 00:10:18 I had no recollection of this at all. So, when she told me about it, like, I started dying laughing because I'm thinking to myself, like, in my sleep doing that, knock the fuck out.
Starting point is 00:10:27 And I'm just like, well, she's upset. So is it sort of? You're supposed to be subconsciously faithful? Like, what the fuck, bro? Come on, son. That's absurd. No, I mean, she's the coolest woman of all time. So she wasn't too upset.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Kaz's girl's great. Kaz ain't shit. He drunk. She at home pregnant. It she wasn't too upset. Kaz's girl's great. Kaz ain't shit. He drunk. She at home pregnant. It's good to know deadbeat Kaz extends beyond this podcast. Well, if it makes it any fair, I went to the party because it was my boy Cam. It was his birthday. Shout out to him.
Starting point is 00:10:58 And my original flagrant thought before this. Are you really asking if it's cheating to lick your palm in your sleep? I don't. But like... Dude, what happened to black men? Y'all were the fucking greatest, man. Like, we looked up to y'all. We wanted to do everything like y'all.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Y'all were the coolest people on the planet. Charlamagne Duvall put out one song, and now you're a bunch of fucking gays walking around sucking on your fingers and shit because you're not busy cheating. This is what happens when black men don't cheat. They start licking between the webbing of their fingers, man. Go out and get some pussy, bro. Put it on the house. That should be reparations.
Starting point is 00:11:35 White people pay for black men to get pussy so we have someone to look up to again. Oh, my God. I felt bad about it for some reason. But why? Because she felt bad about it. And, you know, I don't know it for some reason. But why? Because she felt bad about it. And, you know, I don't know. It was weird.
Starting point is 00:11:47 That's how she should know you're faithful. That you're so horny you're eating out your hand in your sleep. That's a valid-ass point. That is a valid point. That is a valid point. I mean, dude, she should be so elated that you're only— You're not even jerking off. You're so faithful to her that in your sleep
Starting point is 00:12:06 you feel so undeserving of pussy that in your own wet dream you gotta please them you're a licking pussy ain't that crazy that is nuts you're giving orgasms
Starting point is 00:12:16 dude what a great man man thank you for that I needed that I needed that she needs to know about this dude we need to make black men great again bro we really do man for that. I needed that. She needs to know about this. Dude, we need to make black men great again, bro.
Starting point is 00:12:27 We really do, man. Whoever needs to be president in 2020. Sounds like a guy from Black Panther. That's the African president we need, bro. Oh my goodness, guys. That was pathetic, bro.
Starting point is 00:12:45 I'm so sorry. I mean, my original Flickr thought was how problematic artists make all the best music. Is that new Chris Brown and Drake record? Bro.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Flames, bro. It hits different in the summertime, bro. Bro. I literally listened to that shit like 30 times on the way here and back. Didn't even change

Didn't even change the song one time. I love it. I'm just like, fuck, I'm so glad he got one. I love it. I'm so glad Chris Brown got one though.
Starting point is 00:13:08 I love it. Got one. He's officially back. That is the complete cosign. Absolutely. You got the Drake record. Drake who you used to beef with
Starting point is 00:13:15 over the Rihanna shit. True. And now, you guys are besties. Yeah. You're cool with Rihanna already. We did fun videos together and shit.
Starting point is 00:13:23 The video was great. Drake was hilarious. It was a was great. Drake was hilarious. It was a great video. Drake was genuine. There was a moment where I laughed out loud, and it was when he goes- Before the snake? No, no. Before the snake, he goes, how'd you get your music so loud?
Starting point is 00:13:38 He's like, put it on my phone. Put it on my phone. Put it on my phone. But the how'd you get your music so loud was a really good fucking riff. It was just good. People forget the motherfucker could really act, bro. Yeah, he was an actual actor. Yeah, I'm really looking forward to...
Starting point is 00:13:52 We cut down to ESPYs a little. I know, I think when he hosted the ESPYs, there were moments where I was like, it was good, it was good. Yeah, and SNL and a couple other things. And he produces Euphoria, which is one of my favorite shows. I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:14:03 That's a great fucking show, man. You got to get into it. Now they both slap. Yeah, and they both slap. There you go, Eddie. And that's how you contribute before Akash tells you to shut the fuck up. Okay. Akash, what you got, bro?
Starting point is 00:14:17 I found the biggest Indian sellouts on earth. You've seen these. So first of all, you've seen these Hare Krishnas Hare Krishnas Hare Krishnas It's like a cult They all wear the orange Like
Starting point is 00:14:30 I saw this Indian guy On the train He had mad Like bracelets on Like prayer beads And stuff like that And he's chanting The whole time
Starting point is 00:14:38 And then at the end He starts saying shit Like Some of them Maggots Ha And I'm like Yo
Starting point is 00:14:43 That's not us anymore And then I realize He's wearing an orange t-shirt And I'm like yo that's not us anymore and then i realized he's wearing an orange t-shirt and i'm like oh maybe he's a harikrishna and then he turns around and he has a shaved head except for that one stupid ass braid yeah and that is the biggest indian sellout on earth when you have hinduism but you say no you know what let me get the white version of hinduism and walk around like a fucking cancer patient, he's gentrified God. And he's the biggest Indian.
Starting point is 00:15:09 I've never hated an Indian person more. I don't care how many white girlfriends you got. White? He's not, but white people bought into him. He's like, what's that movie about the vegans in the 60s? The vegans in the 60s? The cult that was on netflix it was
Starting point is 00:15:25 a documentary they were there was a cult based on this guy yeah yeah yeah the bong yeah the vegans yeah yeah they're vegans though oh show oh show yeah yeah most people know him from the same thing though this is a brown guy who just conned a bunch of white people and given him money and for you to go worship him instead of the actual god that he's pretending to be right there it's so fucking crazy. Like, it's infuriating to watch. Yeah, that shit is weird. I never really understood those people.
Starting point is 00:15:51 I used to play basketball with one. Could he hoop? Yeah, it was pretty nice. Really? Yeah, it was in Spain. We had a Hare Krishna. Oh, shit. Yeah, fucking stunk.
Starting point is 00:15:59 It literally smelled bad, but he was pretty good, and I asked him about it. But I think some of them do it just so they have a place to stay wherever in the world oh is that what that is yeah cause you can just like live at the

We are the most motherfucking gangster motherfuckers in entertainment. I love it. So that's what we got to put out there in the world. That's the narrative. Speaking of which. We're going with it.
Starting point is 00:18:29 What's that? It's kind of on that same wavelength. Did you see Andy Cohen and that dude Titus from the Unbreakable, Kimmy Schmidt, whatever? Christopher Tatum? Black gay guy? Yeah, black gay guy. Yeah? Oh, man.

I be saying I like him just to annoy her. Yeah, I like this guy.
Starting point is 00:19:11 What am I mad about? So he had Titus on the show. Great. And I guess they were talking about the Dolomite movie he's in with Eddie Murphy. And I guess they were talking about it and yada, yada, yada. And then he goes,
Starting point is 00:19:23 oh, so you're friends with Eddie Murphy? You hang out with him? You talk with him? He's like, yeah, we just did a movie together. He gave me a lot of compliments it and yada, yada, yada. And then he goes, oh, so you're friends with Eddie Murphy? You hang out with him? You talk to him? He's like, yeah, we just did a movie together. Like, he gave me a lot of compliments. I was like, yeah, he's good. He's like, oh, because, you know, I think he was a little problematic with his views on gays or whatever. And Titus looked at him like, well, he's my friend and we were cool, so I don't think he has any problem with gay folks.
Starting point is 00:19:41 And he was like, well, you know, I just think he's like, no, no, no, no. He's like, do your little show, sis like i really got that yeah like he got like he cleaned that like he cut that shit off like before it could even get rolling though like he was like no you're not gonna you're not coming for eddie murphy right now bro like whatever the fuck he said 20 30 years ago like everybody was making gay jokes on eddie murphy raw and delirious dude like don't give me that bullshit like so you know, you know, and that's what he does. That's kind of like his shtick, Andy Cohen.
Starting point is 00:20:07 Like, just doing like messy shit with people. And Titus, who plays like a messy character on the show, put out a long fucking Instagram post, which I'll read to you.
Starting point is 00:20:18 And he's, he calls Andy Cohen sis and she, whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like, quote, she can be a messy queen.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Yes, I said it. Don't care if he knows it either he should remember that his talk show is an episode of real housewives of atlanta it's a place where artists come to talk about art and have a little fun not a place to rehash old rumors or bring a star negative press sunday was a display of ratchet behavior by a well-connected man having blatant disregard for one of his guests if only time were taken to know who i am and not assuming that i am the character i play on tv he would know how to conduct a proper interview with, uh, at, he messed it up over here. I received four Emmy nominations for acting, not for being myself.
Starting point is 00:20:53 He was lucky I had my wits and Christian values that day. Always keep it classy. Being friends with other talented celebrities doesn't make you talented. It makes you friends with other famous celebrities. He should rip a page from Anderson Cooper's book and learn how to do his job. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Got him the fuck out of here, bro.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Eddie's dick must be good, bro. Hey, man. Our guest is here. I'm going to go grab her. Yeah, go get her. Go get her. We got a guest. It's Titus.

I know she's on Love and Hip Hop. Okay, so she's on Love and Hip Hop Hollywood. Hollywood. It's Kaz's homegirl. She has, I think, a song coming out or an album coming out.
Starting point is 00:21:55 I should probably get my feet off the chair she's going to sit on. You don't need to look at your Birkenstocks, son. What's funny is Andrew got Birkenstocks the last few interviews. You got to walk around with these all the time because it's just so misleading about who you are. Here's the thing about the Birkenstocks, right? I almost don't want to say it, but I'll say it. But just don't get it.
Starting point is 00:22:11 It can't get back to Mark. So you know the guy who opens for me who came in my bathtub? Yeah. So like, he has like this huge fear of bears because when he was a kid,
Starting point is 00:22:22 his older brothers would scare him with a bear mask. They'd just run up on him and scare him. And he's like a very scary kid in general. Like if you just go, ah, he like really shakes. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:32 So he was wearing Birkenstocks at the airport. Right. Right. And Alex and I have been ripping him to the point where he stops wearing Birkenstocks. Right? Yeah. One sec. One sec.
Starting point is 00:22:45 One sec. Hey. So he was wearing Birkenstocks. Right? Yeah. One sec, one sec. Hey, so he was wearing so he stopped wearing Birkenstocks. We were scaring him that bad. One sec, one sec, one sec, one sec. And so he basically just stopped wearing them. So I bought Alex a pair and me a pair.
Starting point is 00:22:58 Right? And we're going to show up to the airport wearing the Birkenstocks. Right. Or the next time we see it we're both wearing the Birkenstocks and we're going to rip him for not wearing them anymore. And he's going to think that's the prank. Ands. Or the next time we see it, we're both wearing the Birkenstocks. And we're going to rip him for not wearing them anymore.
Starting point is 00:23:05 He's going to think that's the prank. And then out of nowhere, I'm going to have someone in a full bear outfit scare the fucking shit out of him. And we're going to videotape it all. So none of you tell Mark that this is going to happen because it's going to be an amazing prank. But I'm glad that you all know. Okay, our guest is here. Come on in.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Sit down. Oh, she's injured too. Thank you for braving injury to come on in sit down oh she's injured too thank you for braving injury to come on this podcast get over here bridge hi Bridget hi Bridget thanks for sitting down my gosh I'm mad that Birkenstocks I didn't know Birkenstocks was the theme I would have been mad you got Birks for sure I do That's what's up.

All three of us are in relationships. It just sounds like she was salty that she couldn't go out with you. And she felt a way that you came home and you didn't just put your face in it like watermelon on the 4th of July.
Starting point is 00:33:10 You was playing around with your hands instead. I'd be pissed off too. I don't even remember the dream. Yeah, but she was sleeping. You can't meet to her in her sleep, according to you. Well, she didn't even try. I was not. We're not going to talk about this anymore.
Starting point is 00:33:26 This is crazy. But yes, I think you're doing the right thing. Keep doing what you're doing. We want relationship advice from you. I don't think you want relationship advice. Why not? Andrew,
Starting point is 00:33:33 you're doing a lot. I am. You have all the answers. No, I don't. I need to get the answers. That's why I'm an active listener. This is true. Is Andrew an active listener?
Starting point is 00:33:43 Yes. Yes, he is. All right. That's very impressive. No, I am active. Most men are not active listeners. an active listener? Yes. Yes, he is. All right. That's very impressive. No, I am active. Most men are not active listeners. We're not? No.
Starting point is 00:33:49 We usually got to say some shit we're listening to. You can't be just saying some dumb shit about what Megan felt today. I'm not going to give a fuck about Megan and her feelings. It's true. I mean, that's when we become an active. I mean, yeah, but you just, sometimes the same way that we got to pretend
Starting point is 00:34:06 to care about half the shit y'all talk about, you got to pretend to care sometimes. What do you mean? You do. I will gladly train. Hold on,
Starting point is 00:34:15 what do we talk about this board? What do we talk about this board? What do guys say this board? The majority of guys don't really have anything
Starting point is 00:34:20 to say that's substantial in conversation. That's to us. That's facts. To us. Now if I say the same thing. Hold on. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:34:27 This is a good one. Tell us what's boring. And the reason I'm going to say, I'm not going to say it's boring because I'm not going to qualify if it's good or bad. It's just a difference of interest and opinion, right?
Starting point is 00:34:34 Right. Majority of women, most women, are not really into sports. They don't give a shit about stats. Correct. And y'all can sit and talk about sports
Starting point is 00:34:42 for fucking hours on end. Yeah, but what happens when you bring out that hammer? What part of the conversation is that? That's usually what ends the conversation. Nothing else to say. Y'all done with this small talk? Nothing else to say.
Starting point is 00:34:56 No more small talk. Problem solved. Problem solved. Is there a dick beautiful enough that it could just be brought out in mid-conversation and you're like, all right, fine. There is no dick beautiful enough
Starting point is 00:35:07 to shut up a woman. I'm not saying that right now. Let me ask her. You should probably ask the woman in her room. Is there a dick beautiful? No, no. Just imagine the most beautiful dick you ever thought of in your life.
Starting point is 00:35:17 Okay. I know you probably had one, at least one in your life that was so beautiful. I've seen a couple that are very well put together. Okay, now, now imagine. Not enough to shut me up though what about more beautiful especially when you're mad
Starting point is 00:35:29 especially when I'm mad what about more beautiful than that even more beautiful even more beautiful like no just imagine everything that makes
Starting point is 00:35:38 that dick beautiful and then a little bit more listen and women women who watch this are gonna be pissed off that I'm saying this we hate to be wrong.
Starting point is 00:35:46 Right. Even when we're wrong, we're still going to keep talking. See, this is where- So it doesn't matter. Please get into it. It really doesn't matter how beautiful your dick is. I could be completely dead wrong and still not shut the fuck up. It just won't happen.
Starting point is 00:35:59 Okay, this is hypothetically speaking. There's no amount of beauty that a dick is- There's no amount of glisten. No woman in the world knows. There's no amount of glisten that a dick is going to have that's going to make me shut up. The beautiful dick comes out, right? Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:36:12 Beautiful dick comes out. It glows. It glows. Right, right, right. It has a song. One hand. A beautiful scent. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:36:21 Alexa, play Bring in the Pain. Definitely not. Totally did not set the mood for that. Okay. Alexa play bring in the pain definitely not that's totally did not set the mood for that okay so what if what if
Starting point is 00:36:29 what if the dick comes out right and then the guy just just delicately just taps it twice
Starting point is 00:36:36 on the top of your head just just on the back just where the where Yarmulke would go just a just a couple
Starting point is 00:36:43 just a couple little like a little boop boop, boop, like that. Very unholy. Very unholy. Would that change anything? No.
Starting point is 00:36:50 It might be unholy, but you're fitting to get on your knees though, ain't you? There it is. Hey! What? I was just speaking Hebrew.
Starting point is 00:37:01 That was Jew shit. Yeah, I just went to a bar mitzvah. He's annoyingly cultured, right? So he'll say certain shit that you would not even know. Tell me, is that a song that's accompanied by getting hit in the head with a dick? No. It's accompanied by chopping the tip of your dick off. I mean, that's a feasible outcome if you hit me in the back of the head with a dick.
Starting point is 00:37:17 It's a feasible outcome to get it chopped off. Have you ever wanted a guy to get circumcised and asked him if you would? I don't deal with men that aren't circumcised. Wow. Eden, go back to your fucking country, Eden. I am proudly circumcised. Thank you. You say you're proudly uncircumcised, Eden?
Starting point is 00:37:36 I am proudly circumcised. Oh, okay. There we go. Is there anybody in here uncircumcised? Stop it. No one wants to admit it right now if If they are. I'm circumcised. I'm sorry. But Eden's not circumcised.
Starting point is 00:37:47 How would you know that? Because you showed me your dick. Didn't look circumcised. I thought you wouldn't tell anybody. No, it didn't. His dick looked like a blunt. Yikes. Well, I don't smoke backwards either, so there goes that.
Starting point is 00:38:01 Oh, there you go. Damn, you're bougie, son. Extremely. I'm a singer. They're bad for my voice. What? Backwards. either so there goes that oh there you go damn you're bougie son extremely extremely I'm a singer they're bad for my voice what this is true backwards
Starting point is 00:38:09 we're talking no no no I told you it's a lie I know I told you it's a lie I warned you
Starting point is 00:38:18 your skin is bad for your vocal cords it's hilarious I mean I might start to claim that you might be like listen I'm so sorry now you got a I got an actual skin I'm so sorry I really can't I can, I might start to claim that. I might be like, listen, I'm so sorry.
Starting point is 00:38:27 I'm so sorry. I really can't. I can't engage. I'm crying off that. I can't engage. So if a guy had an uncircumcised penis, it would be something that you weren't that attracted to? No. It's like, no. Not into it.
Starting point is 00:38:37 I'm not into it. Hypothetically speaking, how would you feel if a guy didn't like the way your vagina looked? If there was some of your vagina hanging out a little bit like a jellyfish? Wow. Like a jellyfish? Yeah. Would you feel a little offended that they didn't want to do that? Like the octopus in Finding Nemo. There we go.
Starting point is 00:38:56 Just everything everywhere. The shoes on the other foot. Wow. And this leads to my question about accountability with women. Wow. Yeah, we'll get into that. I think that's important. How would you feel about that? I would be okay. I'm actually very confident. I'm very confident
Starting point is 00:39:09 in the appearance and performance of my vag. I really don't have any insecurities about it. So, I mean, if a guy felt uncomfortable, I'd be like, okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:39:15 It's all you, bro. I think somebody else would be okay with it. Absolutely. Just like, I mean, that's the response I would expect
Starting point is 00:39:21 for a guy to give me about, you know, trying to wear a hoodie in the pool. That's what that feels like to me. That's what response I would expect for a guy to give me about trying to wear a hoodie in the pool. That's what that feels like to me. That's what it means. Have you ever experienced uncircumcised penis and does it feel different? No, just the sight of it was just not a thing for me.
Starting point is 00:39:37 It shuts off the valve. Yeah, no, it turns the faucet all the way off. There's nothing there for me. No, it turns the faucet all the way off. There's nothing there for me. Now, have you ever been in a relationship and you were okay with the guy in the relationship dating another girl? No. You would never be okay with that?
Starting point is 00:39:54 No. Would you ever bring another girl into the relationship for like a little threesome action? I think it depends. It depends. Really? Yeah. I think it depends. What's the depending um it depends it depends honestly it depends on my on on my trust level and transparency with the guy okay okay have you
Starting point is 00:40:14 done this before have i had threesomes before yeah really yeah what was the best now did you go hey we should have a threesome or did the guy say it? So, I can reference two experiences. One best threesome experience, honestly, was with two other women and not a guy at all. Women eat pussy better. I'm sorry. I did not know about this. Oh, I believe that.
Starting point is 00:40:36 How did that come about? That's a whole other story. Let's start there. This is the place to tell that story. We'll leave that where that is. I feel like that's whole other story. Let's start there. This is the place to tell that story. We'll leave that where that is. I feel like that's the only story. I think Akash said that very beautifully. So I would like to know how that happens.
Starting point is 00:40:54 Because I would like to know how... It was three single women, experimental, and we just, yeah. Who proposed it? One of the other girls. One of the other girls did. And how did she say it? What was the line? I don't remember, but we were... Paint? One of the other girls. One of the other girls did. And how did she say it? What was the line? I don't remember, but we were, I mean.
Starting point is 00:41:07 Paint a picture for us. No. No, it's not a picture worth painting. Not a picture worth painting. Now, was she a, was she like a very feminine girl like you? Both were. We were all really feminine. We were all super feminine.
Starting point is 00:41:21 Yeah. Wow. So if you were with the women, that's the type of woman you would be into. Not like a doodly. No, if I was being into women, it would be a really feminine woman. Gotcha. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Interesting. The other one, though, I was the girl that was brought in and it was a relationship situation. And that was really uncomfortable. What happened? Because she was super into it and he was kind of left out. Not left out, but per se, but the energy. So he kind of felt a way after. And I felt bad because I was friends with both of them and it was he was kind of left out not left out but per se but the energy so he kind of felt away after and i felt bad because i was friends with both of them and it was a little
Starting point is 00:41:48 bit weird so you're saying during the the sex you and her were doing it more and he was like supervising it right more so yeah that's the worst which was which i mean he seemed he seemed to be into and then when it was like it was very clear there was no room for him at all it was like damn sorry bro yeah you're just getting cupped out at that point oh dude awful I've been that you're just watching live porn at that point with your girl girl though no no with these two girls and they just
Starting point is 00:42:13 like they were really and I was just kind of like that sucks but this is like just felt like a squirrel you know what I mean I was just trying to find a little place to put the dick you know what I mean like where can I hide this where can I hide his nuts I got some data like'd like to hide. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:42:27 Anybody need some dick over here? Let's try to destroy your nuts somewhere. That's all. Walking around like a hobo. I got spare dick, spare dick here. Spare dick for anybody. Spare dick for anybody. I think at one point, like, I just kind of sat down on the bed.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Just watched. Just started tweeting shit. Like, I was just like, what are y'all done, man? Yeah, they were really into it. That sucks. I just wanted to go to sleep. Oh my God. That sucks.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Being a boyfriend, that was even worse because it's like, I'm with this girl. 100%. And now you feel like there's a bunch of shit you didn't know
Starting point is 00:42:55 before you got there. You fucked up a relationship between two friends. Ain't that crazy? I actually didn't. They actually, yeah, they stay together. They're married.
Starting point is 00:43:02 I'm not gonna lie. No shit. Yeah, they're married. They have a baby now. I'd maybe like use that time to get some work done. Because my girl couldn't be upset at me. She's like, why aren't we hanging out? I was like, well, you're getting your pussy ate.
Starting point is 00:43:14 I didn't want to. So I'm going to do some emails or whatever. You should invite her over weekly. Yeah, this is a perfect house time. This is great. Usually I have to take a shit to do that, but now. Babe, I got to shit again. I take four shits a night.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Oh my God. Is that what it takes to get some me time for a guy in a relationship? What? No way. Guys, is that true? No. Why are we out here taking fake shits? I mean, listen.

Starting point is 00:48:35 Not honey oats That shit is filling Filling? Yeah It's nice brown Okay so So yes Outside of concern
Starting point is 00:48:44 You know for like Safety issues I do want to get back to music. Yes. Now, you have a single that's coming out. When you release this single, can you do me a favor? Sure. Can you just release every song as a single and be the second artist to do that with great success? I mean, that's what Tekashi did, right? He would just release a single. be the second artist to do that with great success I mean that's what Takashi did right he would just release single every month the album who cares just release the single every month make it a thing make it something that we look at make it something we want to digest something
Starting point is 00:49:15 we're looking forward to why the whole album well I'm not doing a whole album I'm doing an EP how many is that five oh okay that's fine but still and the single is one of the five. So technically there's only four more that come after that. And we're doing a short film around it. So it's just a bigger project with this. Well, yeah. It'll be a visual that covers all the songs and then there's the actual EP and then I'll
Starting point is 00:49:35 do another EP in like a couple months. Nice. So it'll be like five songs, four or five. We just keep dropping little things that go. So constant content. Love that. Constant. Constant. Okay. Music videos for these or no?
Starting point is 00:49:47 Yeah. Does the music video, there was a time where the music video dropped off in popularity. Now it almost feels like with YouTube and Vivo. Instagram TV. Instagram TV.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Did a YouTube, did a video can promote a song again? I think there was a time where it was meaningless. Right. And now. I think because directors got lazy after a while. Well, the budgets went down.
Starting point is 00:50:11 The budgets went down because you were able to film stuff on like an iPhone. Right. Because people could make videos on an iPhone. Right. You just put on Worldstar. Because everybody got creative. And no one in the industry realized Bevo was going to be a big thing or YouTube was going to be the big thing.
Starting point is 00:50:22 Right. So they were like, we're not spending money on this. Right. So they were like, we're not spending money on this. Right. So now they do. Like your company, your record label or whatever it is, it's like, hey, this is an important part of the rollout. Because I'm doing an EP, I feel like I wanted to, I mean, we're doing literally just one long form video with all the songs in the video.
Starting point is 00:50:39 Oh, okay. So like a short film. Yeah, so like a short film. So it'll just be like a consistent story. And I mean, for for me it's nostalgic with a lot of different videos that I love from when I was a teenager and a kid like A. Marie Why Don't We Fall In Love
Starting point is 00:50:51 one of my favorite videos Kelly Rowland and Nelly's Dilemma you know what I mean like there's some cute little there we go it's just like some cute romantic fun sexy summer shit so that's the vibe love you love you for me Romantic, fun, sexy summer shit. So that's the vibe. See you. There it is. Love you.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Wait, wait, wait. For me, when you do this video, there's a part when Kelly Rowland is trying to text Nelly through an Excel spreadsheet. And she gets mad. I remember that. She gets mad when she doesn't text me back. Please keep that scene in the video. I'm just so mad that we don't have sidekicks anymore No
Starting point is 00:51:25 That really would have been the ultimate To like flip Remember the sidekicks? Yeah get one You got a budget You can get a sidekick somewhere I have to find one Go to Connecticut
Starting point is 00:51:32 They got them still up there Or like Hartford They still got people New Haven I guarantee you New Haven they have them They're like a good Like 20 years behind Outside of Yale
Starting point is 00:51:41 Yeah And I'm bougie? Yo He's Indian I'm not supposed to know good fucking Disneyland. That's where my girl at Honeymoon is.
Starting point is 00:51:51 That's where I was born in Yale. Hard work. We're going to a hard work on family vacation. That's our Hogwarts is hard work. Oh, man. Okay, so you release it.
Starting point is 00:52:03 Go. Yes. So, like I was saying before I met you several years ago Yes When you were singing with Jay-Z Yeah For Empire State of Mind
Starting point is 00:52:10 When you know Felicia Keys wasn't there We're coming up on 10 years since then Almost 10 years since then Yeah Almost 10 years since The Yankees last won a
Starting point is 00:52:17 World Series Yes I know So just tell me a little bit About that experience Because I think that kind of like First like got you to the To the You know Outside world And like people kind of Starting to notice you Just tell me a little bit about that experience because I think that first got you to the outside world and people starting to notice you.
Starting point is 00:52:29 It was kind of fucked, honestly. Really? Wow. Because for that to be my first experience, my first show ever as an artist was at Madison Square Garden with Jay-Z. Oh, so you're spoiled, you think? You came out the gate like, it's going to be like this all the time. Right.
Starting point is 00:52:44 I went on tour. you know what I mean? And it was a priceless experience, really incredible memories. And I love, I mean, I love all those guys still. But yeah, it set the bar really, really high. So it's kind of like for that to be my first show, it's like in my ever, you know, most artists, most artists want to get to a place where they're constantly topping everything that they're they're doing yeah never gonna top that so it was like okay well but you can headline it yeah of course well that's I mean that's always the goal but I think in my mind like for me to have my career to have started so backwards that way it was kind of like damn okay
Starting point is 00:53:16 well it gave me something to look forward to but also kind of like it did spoil me a little bit was it shitty to go back to much smaller venues? No, I actually enjoy smaller venues. I enjoyed smaller venues more than I did bigger venues because it's more intimate. Well, I mean, yeah,
Starting point is 00:53:29 it's more intimacy and I'm a singer too. If I was a rapper, maybe it'd be a little different but being a singer, it's like you actually get to see people's faces, you get to see which songs
Starting point is 00:53:36 people respond to more. I mean, and you know, doing R&B music is always about like, it's always about relationship shit anyway so it's easy.
Starting point is 00:53:44 When there's women in the crowd, everybody, everyone's just like connected, everybody's vibing, everybody's shit anyway, so it's easy. When there's women in the crowd, everyone's just connected. Everybody's vibing. Everybody's in their feelings. So it's a great... Intimate crowds are definitely the move. When you're doing a live show, you do songs from other artists as well in your set? And that's pretty common. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:59 Do those artists ever feel a way about that? Or is that completely accepted in music? Covering another artist's song? I think if you do it during a live show, like in a transition. So like my band and I will transition from my song into another song and then back into, like I have a song called In the Gray. And the same, it's the same chords. Like the melody is the same as Music Soulchild's Just Friends. So it's easy for me to transition into that song and then I go back
Starting point is 00:54:25 into my song so in a live set it kind of feels like we just kind of did it on the fly like we give like a jam session vibe I mean I would never
Starting point is 00:54:32 record it and put it out that way so most artists don't care they're flattered and honored when you pay homage in a way that's live
Starting point is 00:54:39 and you do it well interesting I was always curious about that some artists don't some artists take it personally but I mean nobody's ever taken anything I've done personally some artists will be like artists don't some artists take it personally but i mean nobody's ever taken anything i've done personally some artists will be like hey don't play my songs
Starting point is 00:54:49 well i mean i think um lma got mad at jack weiss about that yeah when like jack he's put out the the remix for trippin yeah which did which was really dope honestly it was actually a really dope remix um she didn't She didn't really appreciate it. Why do you think? I mean, for a while, it kind of did better than her version for a long time. I mean, it brought more attention to her version. Exactly. She might have been a one-hit wonder if it wasn't for that, though.
Starting point is 00:55:18 She wasn't thrilled by it. Facts. Really? But honestly, that's the first time I've ever seen an artist respond or react like that. Usually, it's like, okay, well, screw it. We're all here. Let's make a remix out of it so we can get to the bag. Yeah. You know what honestly, that's the first time I've ever seen an artist respond or react like that. Usually, it's like, okay, well, screw it. We're all here. Let's make a remix out of it so we can get to the bag. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:28 You know what I mean? Ah. But that ended up not being the case. And what happens with remixes, like, if you remix a song and you put it out, but you're not the official remix, is there revenue there? I think they split it, right? There could be, but that's why they, if it's not an official, that was part of the argument too with Ella Mai was kind of,
Starting point is 00:55:47 she was annoyed because he was promoting the song. He was promoting his version of the song. And obviously he didn't pay the producer for the track. The production budget came out of her budget. So it was kind of like she had done her work, done the groundwork to secure her record. And then somebody kind of came along and piggybacked on a song that already existed. And you could like tour on the recordswork to secure her record and then somebody kind of came along and piggybacked on a song that already existed
Starting point is 00:56:06 and turned it into a movie. And you could like tour on the records like that. Yeah. You don't even need to make the music technically streaming it but you can still hit clubs
Starting point is 00:56:13 and hit anything. Right, because those are records that play in the club so it's kind of, you know, he was able to go, he could go anywhere
Starting point is 00:56:20 in the club and sing his version of her song and make money. That's like, yeah, that's like that's yeah that's a little controversial I mean for comedians it's almost
Starting point is 00:56:29 you could never do that you know that's probably why I asked but you could never do like you'd be out of business yeah to take somebody else's sketch
Starting point is 00:56:37 yeah hey let's go on tour together I mean that's yeah that's what happened to Mencia yeah that's what happened to Mencia
Starting point is 00:56:41 and then Joe Rogan like approached him on stage because comics are the biggest gangsters in entertainment. Did you know we're the biggest gangsters in entertainment? I did not. Now I know. We are. Okay. We're the biggest gangsters in all of entertainment.
Starting point is 00:56:53 Used to be rappers, but they're all soft now. They get offended by jokes. Most people get offended by jokes. Everybody's too sensitive now. You know who doesn't? You know who doesn't? Comics. Because we're the biggest gangsters in entertainment. We're so gangster though when you think about it. It's true, because you can really, like, yeah, you got to have thick skin to be able to make
Starting point is 00:57:13 jokes about other people that probably don't have thick skin. Thanks. Y'all have thick skin to even just do this show. Yeah. Yeah, this is a show that you got to be, that you got to have thick skin. Yeah. He was reading Death Threats today before he got here. You get Death Threats today before he got here.
Starting point is 00:57:25 You get Death Threats? All the time. Why? It's part of the game. All the time? Who makes Death Threats to you? And you're Birkenstocks. I'm so confused.
Starting point is 00:57:35 If they only knew. You guys are performing the Birks. That's what I'm saying. One of these days. One of these days. No, this is such a vibe. One of these days, I'm definitely going to do it. No, I'm getting ready for Japan, yo. Oh, hence the, is this a silk shirt that we got going on?
Starting point is 00:57:48 I'm not sure what this is, but I feel like it's Japanese vibes. It is. With the Burks, it's Japanese vibes. Nice. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? What? No, I had to clear something out of my throat.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Call it cum. Yikes. Oh, my God god you should probably read some ads I wasn't no we will I wasn't I wasn't gonna tell
Starting point is 00:58:10 this story okay but um I will tell it in defense of you know we were talking about how people are so offended
Starting point is 00:58:17 by jokes and so it's very easy I was not going to share but I will say recently I did a joke about uh Drake okay
Starting point is 00:58:24 right and I was saying that the reason why Kawhi Leonard went to play for the Clippers in LA is because Drake was the one telling him to stay. And it's like, Drake can't convince Drake to stay. And I said, like, Drake doesn't care about Toronto. I said, the only six he's holding down is his baby mama. That was the joke. Right.
Starting point is 00:58:42 Good joke. Great fucking joke. Yikes. You go, yikes. But I mean, it's funny. Right. Good joke. Great fucking joke. Yikes. You go, yikes. But I mean, it's funny. It's not like- It's funny. Right?
Starting point is 00:58:49 It's not- Absolutely, it's a funny joke. It's whatever. Last night, Drake DMs me with a laughing face, a tear face, and then goes,
Starting point is 00:59:02 well played. And immediately, I'd always thought that Drake had a good sense of humor and he was willing to laugh at himself. Like you were even saying with the Chris Brown video and everything like that.
Starting point is 00:59:13 But in that moment, I was like, oh, that's why you are 10 steps ahead of everybody here. Yeah. Always. You're 10 steps ahead. Always.
Starting point is 00:59:19 How many rappers, if I made that joke about them, would be like, yo, when you come to my city, it's cool. We've already had that. I can't go to Somalia. If I go to Somalia, but like, but it's like, how many,
Starting point is 00:59:29 and he understood that it was a joke. Yeah. Didn't get, and now, as like a comic, I'm like, oh, he's a good guy. He's a good sport. He's a good sport. I gotta like him now. I hated Drake until 12 hours ago.
Starting point is 00:59:44 Now I can't I wanna that's a comic I wanna when you were talking about the video I was so ready to hate why do you hate Drake
Starting point is 00:59:52 why did you hate Drake until 12 hours ago I actually had a bit that I used to do where I was like I like living vicariously through rappers I can live vicariously
Starting point is 01:00:00 through DMX he's robbing motherfuckers you know what I mean fucking everybody smoking crack these are all things I wish I could do but don't you know what I mean? Fucking everybody. Smoking crack. These are all things I wish I could do, but don't.
Starting point is 01:00:06 Smoking crack? You know what I mean? And I said, Drake, You can still smoke crack. I could, but it ain't worth it. D did that for me.
Starting point is 01:00:12 D did that. So hopefully, I don't have to go through that. But Drake is just like this light-skinned dude who's heartbroken all the time. I can't live vicariously through him.
Starting point is 01:00:22 I am him. It's too relatable it's mad relatable it's the same motherfucker he mirrors hear me he mirrors all your shit I can't watch this
Starting point is 01:00:30 that's uh yeah no I completely understand but it was interesting to see I think I think a lot of rappers are trying to at least the new
Starting point is 01:00:38 the new age rappers are trying to not take things so personally I think I think the baby is a good example of a new rapper that doesn't take
Starting point is 01:00:44 anything seriously but he's still gonna knock you out he'll still knock of a new rapper that doesn't take anything seriously. But he's still going to knock you out. He'll still knock you out, but he's down to laugh at really funny shit. He doesn't take himself that seriously. But he set that bar already by knocking people out. Right. So it's like, you're going to get crazy about it. We can laugh, but if you...
Starting point is 01:00:58 I mean, but yeah, but that was like somebody that was really antagonizing him. And the guy antagonizing wasn't doing his jokes. He was actually doing it for real. It's a weird thing now that rappers kind of have to have a sense of humor or like they have to.
Starting point is 01:01:09 They have to. Yo, so there's a couple, there's a couple, right? So like you look at Lil Uzi Vert, right? Right. He's someone I've always looked at.
Starting point is 01:01:16 Like this guy has a great sense of humor. He knows exactly what he's playing into. Right. He knows exactly the sensibilities he's tickling.
Starting point is 01:01:22 Yeah. You got, what's it called, Tyler as well. And even- Oh, the Flex freestyle flex freestyle can we talk about that we haven't spoken about that we haven't spoken about that oh my god did you see this no you didn't see you haven't seen this oh yes no i did on flex yes yes yes i did we call that white boy fun this is something that we've been doing for about 20 years. Yeah. Maybe a little bit longer than 20 years.
Starting point is 01:01:47 We love it. We love it. Good gay jokes. But we love it. But, you know, Tyler, he has appropriated this from us, which we're okay with. But he has done it in such a brilliant way. And he's playing off of the severe homophobia that a guy like Funk Flex has. Right?
Starting point is 01:02:07 So, like, Funk Flex was so homophobic that he couldn't even entertain a hypothetical situation in a rap. In a freestyle. In a freestyle rap, he goes, me and Flex looking for some buff, big neck. Looking through the index for some hot butt sex. Something like that. Some buff dude. Some buff dudes for some hot butt sex. Something like that. Some buff dude. Some buff dudes for some hot butt sex. And then Flex goes, whoa, whoa.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Rather than laugh, he could have just shrugged it off. And that's the genius of Drake. And Drake would have laughed at it. You know what I mean? You would have indexed those dudes? Or whoever else understands that they would've leaned into it
Starting point is 01:02:47 and I love that Tyler's exposing it and I love that Tyler's like making that humor cool for a bunch of younger kids
Starting point is 01:02:56 who probably don't harbor the same homophobic sentiment right that like maybe their parents or like the rappers they might've looked up to
Starting point is 01:03:03 right cause Tyler had the number one album. And his album is actually really fantastic. Be Khaled. So he has the youth. Maybe you don't hear it
Starting point is 01:03:10 on the airwaves, but he got the youth. Oh, 100%. That's why he did Hot 97 for years. Yeah. He was so against doing anything with Flex,
Starting point is 01:03:19 doing anything with Hot 97. He didn't want to do anything with any of the OGs at all. None of that shit. Really? Yeah. Why? Because they didn't get His gay jokes son
Starting point is 01:03:27 I mean like I don't know the exact reason But like He kind of seems like A DIY type of dude So like He was much more like Reaching the youth
Starting point is 01:03:35 Like kind of doing it For himself He wanted to do The grassroots shit himself I mean he really The mind blowing The mind blowing factor For me was festivals
Starting point is 01:03:42 Seeing him at festivals And watching how crazy kids go whenever he comes on stage, it was like, okay, this kid's a star. Even if we don't know any, I couldn't, before this album, I could not name one Tyler, the Creator song. I still only know that one. I'm a fan. I love Igor.
Starting point is 01:03:57 I gotta be a fan of him. I love Igor. I'm here for all of it. I'm here for all Nigerians. The video where he ate the fucking bugs or whatever. I remember that when he ate the cockroach and then threw it up
Starting point is 01:04:06 that was nuts I was like nope I'm cool I'll pass and now it just wasn't my style back then but I like the shit he's doing now
Starting point is 01:04:12 it's musical it's cool it's creative I think confidence is the new gimmick yeah whatever you do just be great
Starting point is 01:04:19 whatever you do just own your shit like who's gonna tell you anything like the baby could probably make the same fucking jokes and there's not one person in the room that's gonna square up with him and be like nah son that was gay that was the same thing with young thug like right young thug came out in a dress i love it he was wearing dresses around because he had a fucking his

Starting point is 01:06:44 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yo, so how long you in the city for? How long we got you? I am here for two and a half more weeks. My EP drops on the 16th. My single drops on Friday. So I'm really excited about that.
Starting point is 01:06:58 It's called Lucky You. It's kind of cool. Can you sing some of it for us? No, I can play it. Yeah. You can play it. I feel like we had it. I feel like we sent it to you.
Starting point is 01:07:04 I feel like we sent it to Cass. But we might get flagged if we play it. Yeah, will we get in trouble? I feel like we had it. I feel like we sent it to you. I feel like we sent it to Cass. But we might get flagged if we play it. Yeah, we might get flagged Will you get flagged? Yeah, you know how YouTube does. What the fuck? That's actually
Starting point is 01:07:13 a conflict of interest because you want people to... Right, that's silly. It's a weird, I guess, glitch in the algorithm like that. Okay, can I ask you, what is the music for
Starting point is 01:07:23 activity-wise? I was with a guy named paul wall the rapper yes he said he makes he makes music for driving he's in these driving clubs and he that's what he tries to create me too so you make me for driving yeah interest that's how i test all my records i play them in the car so you put the album on you take a drive and if you're vibing to it it's the right it's the right thing so you're not making a club banger so to say i don't make anything with the intention of being the club banger i can see that that's never the goal it's never the goal i mean for me each project has been different right so i released a full length album last year and that was like me just like word vomit therapy put it out there
Starting point is 01:08:05 emotional shit closure moving on to the next chapters of life and that was great but that wasn't like that wasn't like a very purpose driven project this project for me
Starting point is 01:08:14 it's called The Great Escape because it's literally every single song I'm driving somewhere in the with the with each song when I was like
Starting point is 01:08:21 making the records I was like okay first song I can imagine I'm on the West Side Highway. Second song, okay, I'm on the PCH. Okay,
Starting point is 01:08:27 third song, I'm on a rooftop and then we get in an Uber and we're all drunk hanging out at the Uber. There's always something that would bring it back to a ride in a car.
Starting point is 01:08:35 Always. Driving music. I make music for the car. Because, and I think that's a smart thing is because most people are going to be listening to your music in the car.
Starting point is 01:08:44 I mean, if they have to listen maybe at the gym as well but that's a different vibe and obviously the club but how often you go into the club once a week tops right you drive in every day yeah plain and simple yeah or you're on the train or you're in transit that maybe that's maybe that's a better way to make music for people that are in transit that are always moving now there are some people that make music for lovemaking. Okay. And I will compliment them in this way.
Starting point is 01:09:10 What they make sure is that each song transitioning to the next isn't that stark a difference. Yeah. Have you noticed that too? I don't want to hit skip. During lovemaking, it's got a flow. It's got a vibe. Beginning to end. I don't want to skip anything. Because I can's got a flow it's got a vibe beginning to end I don't want to skip anything
Starting point is 01:09:26 because I can only imagine what it's like to last two songs right but for those of the people that do that would suck if it was like R&B then like metal
Starting point is 01:09:34 or whatever it's a five song EP you don't make it through the five songs no with this project all five songs are upbeat they just
Starting point is 01:09:40 they all have a different vibe but every single one of them it makes you it makes you want to move. So whether you're walking around, you could be, one of the songs you can be cleaning the house to,
Starting point is 01:09:48 one of the songs, it's just about movement. This project, every song is about movement. I want to listen to your music. Well, I sent it to Edwin. Do you have a page? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:58 What's your YouTube page or Vivo page or whatever that is? It's Bridget Kelly Music. Bridget Kelly Music. Oh, there's the single. There it is. Is that fucked up or what? I think if we talk over it, we'll be fine. No, no, no, no, no. It's Bridget Kelly Music. Bridget Kelly Music. Oh, there's the thing. Whoa, whoa. There it is.
Starting point is 01:10:05 Is that fucked up or what? I think if we talk over it, we'll be fine. No, no, no, no, no. We cannot risk it. Sorry. But what we can do is play it off of it
Starting point is 01:10:12 because it's a direct feed. That's a direct feed. Gotcha. I'm only playing it from the speaker. Not like through our actual recording. You guys choose.
Starting point is 01:10:21 No, we can't risk it. No, no, no. Don't risk it. Don't risk it. Don't risk it. We have to scrap all episodes. No, we can totally. No, we're't risk it. No, don't risk it. Don't risk it. Don't risk it. I want to. We have to scrap a whole episode. No, we can totally. No, we're not even going to do that because then nobody gets bills paid.
Starting point is 01:10:30 There we go. Facts. Can't hold up the bag. Should we toss them to Portis? Absolutely. Now, how long do we have you here for? As long as you need me. Okay.
Starting point is 01:10:37 All right. Let's get into it. Okay. Can we? I would like to start with one story. Let's go for it. Oh, do you have to go? Oh, where do we have to go?
Starting point is 01:10:47 Do we got time? Do we got like a half hour? No, no, it's, well, we're going to be here for a little bit. So if you guys got to go, this is probably the perfect time to cut. Okay. Yeah. And we won't feel anyway, because we're very grateful for your time. Well, see, I'll sit here and talk all day, but I mean.

Starting point is 01:11:20 I know. It's fucking hot. I know. I know. I know. And Gia was like, maybe you should bring a sweater in case the AC is on. I was like, AC ain't on.
Starting point is 01:11:26 They don't pay for AC here. It's weirdly made us our episodes the wildest though. Facts. And we're taking a picture while recording the podcast. So I will talk. Because.

Starting point is 01:12:19 Appreciate you. You guys are awesome. We're going to keep rolling. You guys are awesome. We're going to keep rolling. Guys, we need to talk about Jeremy Lin because it really bothered me. It really fucking bothered me. Jeremy Lin, for those of you guys who don't know,
Starting point is 01:12:43 had a press conference about how he can't get an offer this offseason. His rock bottom keeps getting more rock bottom, as he says. Okay, let me just tell you why this pisses me off for so many different fucking reasons, okay? First of all, you're a devout Christian. He's a devout Christian. This is true. While life is good and he's getting multi-million dollar paydays, he's getting on teams, he's traveling the world, he's as representative for Chinese people.
Starting point is 01:13:08 Everything happens for a reason, guys. Have faith. Don't worry about it. You got to do it and it's supposed to be good. One year after you won a fucking world championship. Three months. After you've been literally injured every season for the last six years. You've had to take time off, minimum, for the last six years.
Starting point is 01:13:30 Take some sort of time off. You win a fucking championship, and now it's, my rock bottom might not be able to get more rock bottom. I wish The Rock came out in rock bottom right on that fucking press conference. You're Chinese. You know you have family members shitting into the ground. Okay? That's Rock Bottom.
Starting point is 01:13:54 Right? Like, you've seen with your own eyes what Rock Bottom is. To call your life, to describe it in any way as Rock Bottom, you should be slapped in your face. You should be slapped in your fucking face. The audacity, the arrogance to go up there and use the word rock bottom. Heroin addicts use rock bottom for when they're sucking cocks for heroin. That's rock bottom. Go to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. sucking cocks for heroin. That's rock bottom.
Starting point is 01:14:26 Go to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. They'll talk about selling their house so they could drink alcohol. Was there rock bottom? Your rock bottom is having $50 million in the bank and you can't play basketball anymore at 30...
Starting point is 01:14:40 Guys, I couldn't believe it. I thought he got cancer. I swear to God. When I just saw the video and he was crying, I was like believe it. I thought he got cancer. I swear to God. When I just saw the video and he was crying, I was like, he must have cancer. He must have something so horrifying. You know whose fault it is? It's our fault. Why?
Starting point is 01:14:57 It's our fault. It's Nick's fans' fault. Why? Because we gave him Linsanity? We created this monster. He's been living and mind you, I get it if you're an athlete, when you're at the end of the road and you know
Starting point is 01:15:10 it's over, you can be emotional. I get it. Especially as famous as he is, I can understand that being shitty or whatever. Describe me as rock. That's my description. He has been living an NBA lifestyle over two weeks of good basketball for the past seven years. It was such a magical two weeks though good basketball for the past seven years.
Starting point is 01:15:25 It was such a magical two weeks, though. It was so magical. It was great. It was the best thing that happened to me in my adult nickname life. It was great. Which is fucking terrible to think about. It was great. Holy shit.
Starting point is 01:15:35 If he was up there crying, Kaz, and he was saying, honestly, I'm just so grateful that I've had the opportunity, and if I don't play in another NBA team, you know what? It's been a hell of a ride. It's been a hell of a ride. I would look at you as the consummate professional. Here's a guy who seemed to be a good teammate, and he was a good sport everywhere he went. And you know, he actually got a championship.
Starting point is 01:15:56 What an amazing career. Let's write a 30 for 30 documentary. I don't give a fuck what it is. Go play in China. You know you're going to become the most famous basketball player in China now. He still is. He already is. Go play in China. You know you're going to become the most famous basketball player in China now. He still is. He already is. He's going to go, right?
Starting point is 01:16:06 But the fact that you said it seems like my rock bottom, three months after a championship. One, really. What? One. I'm sorry, one month after a championship,
Starting point is 01:16:15 you said that your rock bottom keeps getting more rock bottom. I don't even know the sentence that he said. Rock bottom keeps getting lower, I think. I could not. Someone should have pushed him off that podium. It feels like the NBA gave up on me.
Starting point is 01:16:32 They don't believe in me. Your body gave up on you. You can't stay healthy. You cannot stay healthy for a season. And even healthy Jeremy Lin, is he one of the 430 best basketball players in the world? Good backup point guard. Good backup point guard, yes. Is he one of the 430 best basketball players on earth right now?
Starting point is 01:16:52 Healthy Jeremy Lin, yes. I don't know. Healthy? Healthy Jeremy Lin, yeah. He is. He is. 100% is. I can find a good 200 point guards right now.
Starting point is 01:17:02 But you can't find 200 point guards that are going to have the game IQ and the teammate ship or whatever you call that. I give you that. You're going to find more skilled guys who can get buckets. More skills, yeah. But you're not going to find guys who will the entire season get up every time out, high five everybody, really be a part of the fabric of that team, be genuinely good guys.
Starting point is 01:17:22 And like we've always said on this show, culture guys are valuable. Here's my thing. Let me shake the table a little bit. Does it all come off a little phony now if he's thinking this is rock bottom, knowing he's one of the most famous despite being average
Starting point is 01:17:39 at best. At his peak, being average at best. I mean, I just think it's so phony, especially with the Christian stuff that he's been pushing this whole time. It's like, you either be about it or don't. But don't the second you have a little bit of hardship. You went to fucking Harvard. I went to Harvard! Like, you whiny little bitch.
Starting point is 01:18:01 You achieved your parents' dream and your dream. You know how hard that is as an Asian American to make your parents happy and you happy at the same time? You check Harvard off so you can go to fucking Thanksgiving and then you went to play basketball.
Starting point is 01:18:19 You got everything you possibly wanted in life. You got everything. And you dare describe that as rock bottom. Tens of millions of dollars. Tens of millions. Global fame. If he really wants to play basketball, he could be...
Starting point is 01:18:35 You know how big Marbury is in fucking China? He will make Marbury look like a fucking pedestrian if he goes there and goes to the Chinese Basketball League and cooks. And he'll cook over there he'll go over there and average like 30
Starting point is 01:18:47 and be a mega star for them son I just we need to sit down and talk with him it makes me it makes me I'm sorry to say it
Starting point is 01:18:55 kind of makes me respect Carmelo Anthony that much more oh boy we always gotta bring him back yes it does if we did we don't have to
Starting point is 01:19:02 we could segue away from it. It makes me respect the more. I hear you. I respect it. Don't care. Now, go, Akash. Go. Yo, have you seen the video of Ben Simmons?
Starting point is 01:19:16 No, no, no, no. Your take on this whole. It was just sad. I want to defend the Asian guy. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah. But as an Asian guy. Oh, get out of here.
Starting point is 01:19:24 Isn't that. I think he says something? But as an Asian guy, isn't that... I think he says something like, guys don't give up, whatever. But just, what are you doing, man? What the fuck are you doing? Have some self-awareness. I get everybody goes through rough patches, but like...
Starting point is 01:19:35 This is a rough patch. Publicly. This is a rough patch. Well, your rough patch is what you make. Like, if you couldn't get up at clubs anymore, even if you were rich, it would bother you. But you would be a man, and he would let that bother you on the inside or cry in your house.
Starting point is 01:19:48 You know what I mean? That's what a man does. He cries in private. Yes. 100%. That's a real man. I honestly believe. Cry in private.
Starting point is 01:19:54 That is very true. I honestly believe we're part of the problem. Not just Knicks fans, just fans in general. He's so fucking famous that a guy that isn't really that good has to have a press conference or he's doing interviews where he's talking about potentially not being in the NBA anymore just because he's mega fucking famous and not really that good at basketball. I mean, he's good at basketball, but he's not like... The fame and the skill just doesn't even out.
Starting point is 01:20:20 No, no. Asian privilege. It's Asian privilege. I mean, I was fucking blown away. It's hilarious. Yeah, anyway. We don't have to stay on it anymore. Akash, what are you thinking?
Starting point is 01:20:33 What else we got? Ben Simmons. You saw the video. Ben Simmons hitting jumpers. Everybody's losing their fucking minds. Was anybody else really unimpressed by this? Is there an actual NBA player on this court? There's like a one minute video on the Bleacher Report
Starting point is 01:20:45 I think page or something like that. How's the highlight? This is four minutes. But it's a video of him hitting one three pointer one jumper from the foul line extended and I think a couple more layups
Starting point is 01:20:55 and everybody's like Ben's been in the gym all summer. How low are the expectations for you when this video goes viral and you are a max contract player in the NBA? I don't get it, bro. You just signed the max contract. I mean, you're a max contract player and we are going crazy because you hit an open three-pointer with tons of time to get it off.
Starting point is 01:21:20 Yeah, that's the video. In a pickup game. Yeah, I think this is the video. This is the video, yeah. No, completely uncontested. And it still looks awful, his form. His elbow is way out. The elbow's way out, but also the hand
Starting point is 01:21:31 is like sideways. He looks like a Q-dog, bro. That's how he shoots. When I first saw this, I didn't know if there were other NBA players. Devin Booker's in there. But they ain't playing no D, son. Austin Rivers is in there. I mean, this is a very casual game. Yeah. Nobody seems to be trying that hard. Devin Booker
Starting point is 01:21:48 playing defense already. He barely tries in real games. Yeah. And he's 6'4". Yeah. Ben Simmons got a whole foot over him. I mean, come on. Oh, get crossed up. That was decent. That's his game, though. That's his game. He can do that all day. Well, then he could bounce out of the playoffs in the second round all day, too.
Starting point is 01:22:03 Because if you cannot shoot, you cannot win. It's as simple as that. I mean, if you're a point guard and you can't shoot, you're not going to win. Yeah, yeah. If he had somebody film all these – is it one game? I'm pretty sure it's multiple games. Did he have somebody film them just so he could put this clip out and shut Andrew up? Oh, I bet 100%.
Starting point is 01:22:18 100%. Maybe not to shut me, but – Contavious Caldwell Pope. That's a lot of a name, isn't it? That's a fucking lot of a name. I don't need to say that. It still looks weird. Like, why does his arm bend like that?
Starting point is 01:22:30 I'm telling you, if you look at his palm, it's not going like this. It's like sideways. It's like an anatomy problem. I truly think it's a physical, structural issue. And, yo, when you get that big, shit gets weird. It's very rare. I saw you had Aaron Gordon on Kazim Vick, right? Now, Aaron Gordon is a physical anomaly in that he is wildly proportionate for how big he is.
Starting point is 01:22:56 If you saw him at distance, you would not think that he's 6'10". You would think he's 6'1". You'd think he's 6'1". You'd think he's 6'1". Blake Griffin is another one of those. You see Blake at distance, and you think he's actually a regular-sized guy, but he's 6'10". And, oh, real quick, shout-out to Blake. I was up at this festival in Montreal.
Starting point is 01:23:15 Saw that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Blake was there. Another guy with a great sense of humor. Yo, very good sense of humor, and he did the roast. And he roasted Pete Holmes. Oh, really? He tied Pete Holmes, which is a massive loss for Pete Holmes. Because if they were playing basketball.
Starting point is 01:23:35 And he tied him. And Pete Holmes tied Blake. That's a loss for Blake. That's a horrible loss for Blake. The fact that they tied. Now, obviously, with roasts, everybody's helping out. We had a good joke for him. What was the joke?
Starting point is 01:23:48 You gave it to him? I mean, everybody's helping everybody out with the roasts. But it was me, Neil, and Big J were working on it. They say in Hollywood that Pete Holmes has what's called the it factor. And by it, I mean he is the energy of a pedophile birthday clown. Then the tag is that lives in the sewer with the ratings of his shows. Who had that last line, Jay? Oh, you?
Starting point is 01:24:23 Nice, nice. I was talking with Van with him when I was doing the Peace Jam shit and Blake Griffin was there with his team whatever
Starting point is 01:24:30 and he was like I legitimately I've seen him do stand ups I legitimately think he has a career in this if he doesn't want to play basketball anymore
Starting point is 01:24:38 as far as doing movies, acting, comedy whatever he had great timing with it I forgot what late show he was on. Oh, about how reporters ask you,
Starting point is 01:24:47 what was it again? Oh, he was talking about how reporters ask you dumb questions. Yeah, it's like jocks aren't dumb, it's just that you're asking them questions when there's not a lot of oxygen going into their brain. So he was like,
Starting point is 01:24:57 do a couple jumping jacks. And then he asked him a question, he's like, yeah, so what are you about to say? And he's like, yeah, see how stupid that is or whatever. So it was good, it was funny. Now he's got his head on his shoulders too. He's like, I understand I'm famous you about to say? He's like, yeah, see how stupid that is or whatever. It was good. It was funny. Now, he's got his head on his shoulders, too.
Starting point is 01:25:07 He's like, I understand I'm famous, but I don't want to bump anybody. That's why I often will host shows and have comics on the show. This way, they're getting spots that they wouldn't normally get, and I get to go up and do it. I thanked him because when I did that film, that Winnie Cummings film, there was a line in the film which, you know, we were wrestling
Starting point is 01:25:29 and I say to him, you know, the only team that wants you is your legal team, right? And it wasn't a line that was very funny and the week before
Starting point is 01:25:38 the movie came out, he got traded to the Detroit Pistons. And so I was like, so, thank you for making that line work. Really slapped. I see that. to the Detroit Pistons. And so I was like, so thank you for making that line work.
Starting point is 01:25:48 Really slapped. That trade was good for him, I think. It seems like. I think it was. I think it was. Like his game, all of a sudden he's hitting threes.
Starting point is 01:25:55 Yeah. He's a different player. Yep. Out of the headlines. And he gets a focus. Yeah, I think that's what I mean. I think getting out of LA
Starting point is 01:26:02 is good for him. Yes. 100%. I wonder if that's going to have an adverse impact on some of these free agents. I don't think it will impact LeBron or Kawhi because Kawhi's a fucking robot. Yeah. But like a lot of these guys, you're going from-
Starting point is 01:26:13 Paul George. Going from Oklahoma and Indianapolis where there's not much cracking off at best to L.A. Home. You think it doesn't help that Kawhi and Paul George are like both sort of LA guys I think for Kawhi he doesn't care about anything that's going on around him
Starting point is 01:26:29 gotcha but Paul is from there that could help Kawhi could watch game film in an orgy I'm convinced he would just sit in the middle and just watch
Starting point is 01:26:36 a fucking iPad the highlights I wonder if and Paul George this probably won't happen because he's from LA he's probably used to it but I wonder if there's anything that happens where you're used to being the man in a whole state.
Starting point is 01:26:52 Right? Yeah. And then you go to LA where people don't really care. There's more famous people than you. Like if you have a reservation at a club or some shit and then Jack Nicholson comes, you get bumped, Paul George. Right? And I wonder if that takes any emotional toll on these guys who are like, oh, I'm not that famous here.
Starting point is 01:27:14 Yeah. I wonder if they lose confidence. You think it helps? I think it helps. Interesting. Why? I think it helps because I think they're so used to that everywhere else that I think that's why a lot of those stars gravitate to those big markets because they can almost feel normal around a lot of unnormal shit.
Starting point is 01:27:29 You know what I'm saying? Like, if you're a huge star in fucking Indiana, you can't go to the grocery store. You can't do regular shit. But, like, you know, if you're in LA, you've been to Hollywood a bunch of times. Like, you'll see famous people all the time. I specifically meant parties. Like, there's so many. Like, Blake was fucking Kendall Jenner or something, wasn't he?
Starting point is 01:27:46 Yeah. And now he's in Detroit, and who's he fucking there? Nobody. You'd rather fuck the dudes than some of those guys. Or Ford Muffler or something. Royce the Five-Nine. T-Grizzly. And now he seems like he's just focused.
Starting point is 01:28:01 I remember J.R. Smith said the same thing about getting out of New York. It was good for him to go to Cleveland. So I wonder if some of these guys, I don't think AD is going to have that problem because he was already in New Orleans in this while. But party-wise, I think being back home might make it like I could do anything. I could go back home and do the home shit with the homies or I can go do the L.A. Hollywood shit. It's all here. And I'm not sure he will be, but it could be a thing down the road as all these guys go to new york and la yeah i got it would love if they actually fucking came to new york no they're going to new york just a different borough i don't mind it i
Starting point is 01:28:34 don't mind you think it'll affect kairi the same way since that's kind of like new jersey i'm curious to know how kairi is going to do also because kairi this is his first time getting the spotlight he always wanted yeah like he Like, he got the spotlight in Boston. But Boston media, Andrew always talks about, is, like, kind of always favoring the team. And it's not New York media. New York is the world's media capital, it seems. Yeah. So, like, he's here.
Starting point is 01:28:55 It's the first time, like, he chose somewhere to go. Yeah. So, like, the pressure's all on you. Yo. Especially being back home. Like, he still, every summer he still goes back to the Patrick school and, you know, go to Jersey and does all that type of shit. But I don't know if that's going to mount up for him now that he's there all the time.

Starting point is 01:31:57 Damn right. Speaking of the Clippers, Kawhi's uncle is in a little hot water. This happened last weekend. We need to talk about it. Yeah, what's going on there? Stephen A. Smith said the Lakers were suspicious of activity. Kawhi's uncle is in a little hot water. This happened last weekend. We need to talk about it. Yeah, what's going on there? Stephen A. Smith said the Lakers were suspicious of activity. I don't know if he said the Lakers were the main team snitching, basically,
Starting point is 01:32:11 but they're a little suspicious of the things Kawhi's uncle was allegedly asking for. So specifically, I think he was mentioning a story Brian Windhorst wrote, and Brian Windhorst is like the LeBron whisperer, so they're all saying, like, okay, the Lakers are are pretty much saying like, there was some shady shit that happened. Yo, the Lakers are the biggest fucking snitches in the NBA, bro. Real talk. If their story comes out, it's the Lakers. Of course.
Starting point is 01:32:37 They are some sore losing ass bitches. Real talk. That's exactly what's happened. But what exactly were they saying? They're just saying he was asking for things that probably weren't legal in the CBA. So you know what's interesting with that? Is that
Starting point is 01:32:52 this is proof that the players are getting paid less than what they deserve. Sorry, less than what they're worth. Bingo. Right? And again, guys, we know that playing sports and making $40 million is stupid. That being said, the market actually shows that they're worth more than that. Right.
Starting point is 01:33:13 So what happens is when you're underpaid, there are ways that I imagine people could be paid around that. Right. Potentially. That's probably what they're bitching about. And the easy way to get rid of this is just to go no salary cap. But... Then the owners stop making money. And they don't want to stop making money. And not only do the owners stop making money,
Starting point is 01:33:34 because the owners might find a way to make money, but you will have a completely unfair league. Oh, yeah. There'll be no way to compete. All the best players will be in like six teams. That's it. And that'll be it. The owners that can pay.
Starting point is 01:33:45 Well, this year is pretty wide open. But before that, wasn't that kind of the complaint? Well, that's- That's happening anyway. That's the interesting thing, right? It's like if the best players are already going to these markets, and we don't got to feel bad for billionaires. Dude, if you own a basketball team, you're a billionaire.
Starting point is 01:33:57 You have enough money to pay more. That's not your main source of income. This is a side job. I don't think- I don't feel bad for the owners and say they lose money. I'm saying the owners aren't going to allow themselves to lose money.
Starting point is 01:34:08 So salary cap. I see. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I think there are some owners that would go, we could make more money if we just paid everybody to be on our team.
Starting point is 01:34:16 Yeah. But I hear what you're saying. Yeah, yeah. So that's actually the second point I wanted to get to. I saw an article about the Clippers
Starting point is 01:34:22 building a new arena. Yes. And that to me confirms that kawaii's uncle was asking for some shit or that if he was i say if he was asking for some fit steve bomber paid it happily because if you're building a new arena that's going to cost hundreds of millions of dollars you don't just have money to burn i have to sell people on the idea that we deserve not only a new arena, but a separate arena. And it's privately funded too.
Starting point is 01:34:48 So he's not taking money from. Yeah. That's why this is interesting where like in most cases, privately funded. Yeah. So in most cases, I would a hundred percent agree with you. This is a little bit unique.
Starting point is 01:34:57 It's privately funded and it's on already state owned property. So in other words, they're not like taking people's houses away like Jay-Z did to all his people in Brooklyn. You know, his lovely Brooklyn people. Well, he didn't do that. He also, you have to keep in mind, he also drove up the property value around the arena so that everyone around it had to move out too. Ah, yes, yes, yes. He took care of... New York.
Starting point is 01:35:23 He took care of Brooklyn. Concrete jumble where you'll move out of when we gentrify it. So, is this arena supposed to be near the old Great Western Forum, right? Near Inglewood? Yeah. Okay. It's in Inglewood. So, already stayed on land, so you're not moving anybody out, and self-funded, so the
Starting point is 01:35:40 taxpayers aren't going to be tripping up. Okay. Now, we'll see if it happens, but I 100% get your point, which was nobody would agree to that if they didn't have marquee players, but now that he has marquee players, maybe he's able to get this funding from these people. He's trying to make a move to take the Lakers' spot, and if you
Starting point is 01:35:56 get these two, that's... It's possible. They're everybody's favorites. If you want to talk about little shit that could be a little shady happening, three days after he signed, Kawhi's in a commercial for the Lion King.
Starting point is 01:36:11 True. That's Disney. Three days after he signed. That's crazy, dude. Is it a commercial? I don't know. It's just that location, dude. Listen, Kawhi can't act.
Starting point is 01:36:21 He can't even act like a human on the basketball court. He didn't have to. He was just talking about it, man. You know, my family. You mean like reading Beyonce's lines in the movie? I love that. Goddamn.
Starting point is 01:36:35 But no, I mean like just the location. If you're trying to like take a spot from the Lakers, like once you fly into LAX, the first thing you see is the Great Western Forum. And you see like the infrastructure Of like that new stadium And all that other shit So if like As soon as you get off LAX
Starting point is 01:36:49 And the first thing you see Is like bam The new home of the Clippers Like It's a drive to get to Staples Center Ain't no mad convenient From the airport I'll tell you that
Starting point is 01:36:56 That's like That's a five minute drive As soon as you get off the airport Dog so But getting to the airport Sucks It does It does
Starting point is 01:37:03 But For LA Downtown LA sucks too, don't it? Oh, does it? I'm pretty sure I mean, I never had an easy time getting there Probably, yeah Maybe it's the same amount of traffic
Starting point is 01:37:11 Yeah, definitely It is interesting Look, it is interesting Very interessante Yeah, I think more will end up coming out here Yeah, more will end up coming out here What else we got? I don't know if you want to talk about Steve Kerr's comments
Starting point is 01:37:24 On the AD trade being bad for the league. Yeah, what did he say about that? He basically, I mean, he took a stance that wasn't the hardest. He was like, look, I am for player empowerment, which you have to say as a coach, but then he was also like, I have no problem with a guy like LeBron playing out his contract and then leaving, or a guy like Kawhi playing out his contract and then leaving, but I have a problem when the guys like Anthony Davis have two years left on their contract
Starting point is 01:37:46 and then start demanding a trade, and then you just hold your team hostage. Which, if it was football, all these training camp holdouts that we could talk about later, I get it, especially like running backs. You've got to get your money. But in basketball, the contracts are guaranteed. So it's a little bit different in that it's not about money. It's just you don't like where you work, and now you're going to make a thing about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:09 Interesting. It's kind of weird coming from him, though, because Steve Kerr always seems like the cool guy. He's the cool guy, so he still took the cool guy stance. If you're a free agent, you don't owe your team anything. Yeah. So he still played that kind of, like, half nice guy thing. But then he was like If you're under contract And I do see a little bit of a point
Starting point is 01:38:27 And maybe there's something huge I'm missing But if the contract is guaranteed I can see how it's like Yo man Honor your contract But part of that contract though 100% Part of that contract though
Starting point is 01:38:37 Is like If I'm going to do my best To you know Go out there and play as hard You as the GM or the owner You gotta do your best to make sure that you're putting out a winning product or you're doing the best you can.
Starting point is 01:38:50 That's not part of their contract. All they have to do is pay you the money that you owe. When you get paid by, let's say you have a job working for WWE, it's not their job to fill the stands. If they want to have nobody there,
Starting point is 01:39:07 they'll have nobody there. As long as you're writing or you're doing exactly what you're doing, they're going to pay you for that. Okay. But if I'm talent, if I'm the guy who's supposed to be the marquee there, like, you better be doing your best to,
Starting point is 01:39:20 because it's in your best interest. Yeah, of course. But it's not, like, the legal right. And I guess I think what Akash was saying is we made an agreement. It's like, fam, I paid you for five years of work, and I paid you an exorbitant amount of money, and you're going to not do the work? And I want to say, if we were actors, we're not going to be because we've said too much shit on this podcast. But if we were actors in a movie and we didn't like something about the movie they would be like alright well you signed
Starting point is 01:39:45 a contract or a TV show if you want to leave the TV show nah you signed a four year contract you're here for four years 100%
Starting point is 01:39:50 if you try to leave we'll sue you and theoretically it's like if LeBron tried to leave you could sue him in a different industry dude Tony Soprano
Starting point is 01:39:58 signed a contract that said he had to maintain a certain weight to play Tony Soprano wow and then he died of a heart attack. Whoops. They want their pound of flesh, bro.
Starting point is 01:40:12 If you sign on a dotted line, that is everything. Oh, my gosh. And we can say, and I know actors who are on shows, and I hate the fucking show, but you signed a five-year contract when you got it or whatever, and they got the options. That's what it is. Now, if there was a winning clause in the contract
Starting point is 01:40:26 where it's like you need to surround me with X number of all-stars, all right, cool, that's in the contract, but it's not. That's interesting, too. That's interesting about putting that in a contract, which is like now with tanking being so prevalent, I wonder if you have these big marquee players start to go, start to have a no tanking clause. I mean, it's almost like an unwritten rule.
Starting point is 01:40:45 No trade clause, no tanking clause. And how do you prove it? I don't know. How does that work? But if I'm investing the next four years contractually of my life to you, I want to make sure that you're just as committed to winning as me or let me go somewhere else. And if it's not in the contract, realistically, you should just,
Starting point is 01:41:02 legally, you're like, you should just sit there and you sign the contract. In the same way that NFL contracts should be guaranteed it's bullshit that an owner can be like oh you're not good so we're going to cut you and whatever money you got up front is yours but that's it. You sign the contract. Just because there's no competition? Because the players union sucks.
Starting point is 01:41:20 First made up of NFL IQs that have just been CTE'd to nothing. Yep. You have guys that get concussions for a living. Yeah, sure. Sign here, A-Rod, whatever the fuck your name is. Hey, goddamn. Signs a different name.
Starting point is 01:41:32 You got seven working brains out. Guys, we have seven Barry Bonds here. It's not even the right sport. I don't understand why you're signing players from other sports. Yeah, baseball got the strongest union, then basketball, then football's the weakest. And the last almost holdout that they had or lockout or whatever, they basically were like,
Starting point is 01:41:51 okay, well, you can keep all the money, but just shorten our practice times and stuff like that. And the owners were like, yeah, sure, we keep all the money, you practice I don't give a fuck. And now there's a theory that players are getting injured more because there's less practice. They're not practicing enough.
Starting point is 01:42:06 So, like, I don't know if that's been scientifically proven. That's what one study thinks. But, like, you fucked yourselves harder. Like, how did you lose getting less work? You still lost. This fucking sucks, dog. Like, I watch them shit. I know they watch probably all this entire NBA offseason and be like, yo, how the fuck?
Starting point is 01:42:22 How the fuck? Like, I think Russell Wilson's, what, the highest paid? How the fuck? I think Russell Wilson's what? The highest paid quarterback in the NFL? Yeah, $35 million a year. $35 million. $35 million. That's Aaron Gordon money, bro. That's so true, dude.
Starting point is 01:42:36 If somebody gives that to Chris Paul tomorrow, he's going to tell you, go fuck yourself. That's insane to me that you could be the top of the most violent sports in the world. And I want to say it's just economics because there's 12 players on a basketball team and 50 on a football team. But also football makes way more money. Way more. So I can't even say that. Every NFL team is worth at least a billion dollars. At least.
Starting point is 01:42:59 As much as it would suck as a fan of a team if the contracts are guaranteed because there's so many season career ending injuries it's like bro that's the least they could get now is is there some you know
Starting point is 01:43:12 conventional wisdom that says you get paid what you're worth and NFL players unfortunately are worth less to a team
Starting point is 01:43:18 than an NBA player in the sense that one player can't affect a team outside of quarterback no one player can impact as much as LeBron or whoever. Yeah, that's potentially valid. I also just think guaranteeing the contract is like they have to in 2020 when the contract is up.
Starting point is 01:43:34 I think they have to hold out. But they're not going to. They've been telling the players, stack your checks. Get ready for a holdout. Players aren't going to stack their checks. They're going to try to hold out. Players are going to be like, yo, I need to eat. I'm broke.
Starting point is 01:43:45 So what do you think about the whole Zeke shit? I don't think Zeke is worth the trouble. I think he's just always a distraction. As a fan of the Cowboys, I'm like, there's always some shit going on with him. It's always something. I don't want to pay him. Also, kind of if you're running a team, running backs are pretty easily replaceable.
Starting point is 01:44:01 So I think I'm inclined to let Zeke go, but mainly it's a distraction thing. But I don't fault Zeke at all for holding out. Right. 100% you should hold out. I just wouldn't pay it if I was the Cowboys,
Starting point is 01:44:11 if that makes sense. Yeah, I mean, the one thing about GMs being able to cut your pay is that if you outperform your contract too, you want to be like, hey, I want more money.
Starting point is 01:44:19 That's what you should do. If you're going to make this a non-guaranteed contract, I'm not guaranteeing I'm coming. Ooh, fuck you. I like that. Yeah, that's got to be the cost on their end. And now what they also gave up in the labor agreement is every day of training camp you miss is a $40,000 fine.
Starting point is 01:44:32 And I think training camp is like three weeks, I think. They gave that up? Gave that up. God damn. Wow. Do you think NFL players are the stupidest athletes? Man. They've got to be the stupidest, right?
Starting point is 01:44:44 Probably. Probably. because they're also, if you watch the broke documentary on the 30 for 30, two-thirds of NFL players, I think, are broke after five years, and it's like half of, or like one-third of NBA players. Whatever, it's the biggest percentage of the NFL. I know that. NFL is not for long, man. And a lot of motherfuckers do not save their money.
Starting point is 01:45:00 And that's what happens. That's what happens. Career not for long, money not for long,s not for long It's sad bro Like fucking One of my good You know Karen Sybil One of my good friends
Starting point is 01:45:09 She fucking She bought She bought a Washington Redskins Super Bowl ring Off an auction For like $800 Like something like
Starting point is 01:45:17 Not even that crazy And I'm just like God damn Somebody's Super Bowl ring They needed $800 That bad To be like yo old players got paid nothing and went through hell like there was no trying to protect them and they got paid jack
Starting point is 01:45:32 shit they're all burdened every one of them would sell their their super bowl ring for fuck a couple of white castle sliders i was always telling motherfuckers man people always think like rings mean everything. I'm like, bro, like rings ain't going to keep your house lights on like 10, 20 years down the road. Like, yeah, I feel bad for Melo, but I think he'll sleep well at night. I know that he got like well over $300 million. Oh, he'll be fine. He'll be fine. But a lot of motherfuckers in the NFL are not.
Starting point is 01:46:00 Right. While we're talking about broke, Adrian Peterson broke. Y'all read this? This is crazy. You sent me this. Wait, did you send me? Yeah, I sent it to you this This is crazy You sent me this Wait did you send me Yeah I sent it to see This is crazy
Starting point is 01:46:06 Made a hundred million dollars In his career So just so everybody Doesn't know Adrian Peterson Is arguably the best Running back of our generation Yeah I think
Starting point is 01:46:15 He's definitely To me Our generation yes I don't think it's disputable He played for many years On the Minnesota Vikings And now he's kind of Bounced around the league
Starting point is 01:46:23 He was with the Saints Had a good season With the Skins right now He was on the Skins Yeah good he's kind of bounced around the league. He was with the Saints for a little bit. He was on the Skins. Yeah, good season with the Skins last year. In his career, he's made how much?
Starting point is 01:46:32 Over $100 million. In just contracts. We're not even talking about other shit. Yeah. What happened? Broke. Cannot pay back
Starting point is 01:46:40 a $5 million loan. In debt. In debt. He's negative. Cannot pay back his loans five million dollars i forget from whom he got the loan he said i trusted the wrong people and again i talk about it on this podcast none of us are above it we're not immune it could happen to any of us we get taken get a jew a good jew dog if you are adrian peterson go to goldman sachs don't try to
Starting point is 01:47:03 save money go to the fucking and they could fall too but it's in much safer hands than some motherfucker you know yeah go to the Jews Goldman and whatever
Starting point is 01:47:13 Sachs is it's just so if you have millions of dollars that's who you go to and if you don't have millions of dollars learn money
Starting point is 01:47:20 because everybody will try to take that shit from you it's fucked up because I think right after that news broke, they showed footage of his birthday party and he had lions and shit. He came in on a camel.
Starting point is 01:47:30 Coming on a camel, all this super extravagant shit. I'm just like, oh my God. You need a motherfucker at Goldman Sachs and they'll do it for you to say, hey, here's your allowance. This is what you're allowed to spend at your birthday party. I have access to this. You don't. And not me specifically, Goldman.
Starting point is 01:47:47 That's it. You trust us. Go to a name brand motherfucker. Michael Vick did that. Michael Vick. And Michael Vick, so a lot of these guys will file for bankruptcy just so they don't have to pay back the loans. Michael Vick, after everything happened, said, I'm not going to file for bankruptcy.
Starting point is 01:48:00 I'm going to pay back everybody I owe. And he's paid back everybody. Isn't that crazy? And now he's made more since then, right? Yeah, he got a big contract with the Skins. With the Eagles. Now he's on Fox, doing NFL on Fox every weekend.
Starting point is 01:48:13 For some reason, I root so hard for... Love Michael Vick. No, not Michael Vick. For athletes who have lost their money to come back and make it again. Of course. And he is... And I shouldn't because what fucking idiots can lose millions of dollars and then I want you and make it again. Of course. And he is, and I shouldn't because what fucking idiots to lose millions of dollars and then I want you to make millions again to do it.
Starting point is 01:48:30 But the fact that he was on an allowance, I think it was like a $6,000 a month or some shit like that. I forget. I mean, all his teammates are multi-millionaires. That means he's going out to dinner with them and not, or even not going out to dinner. Like he just couldn't afford it. He fucking slowly crawled his way back in
Starting point is 01:48:48 and now he's probably a millionaire again. But when we say that, when we say like find a Jew, what we're really saying is there is this thing called business managers. And if any of you guys don't have money, you don't know what that is. And those of you who do, you do.
Starting point is 01:49:01 But if you get money, you can just hire a business manager they i have a business manager they pay my bills right and don't go to some shady ass save you percentages oh they take five percent i'll take three don't if you're super rich fuck the two percent go to the most trustworthy name brand people and shit could still go wrong but the chances are much lower because their whole business is on the line You need somebody losing something to be able to hurt them as well. Like, if you fuck me over, Eddie Murphy's leaving you. Right?
Starting point is 01:49:32 Like, you got to look at their clientele list. Like, oh, these people are with? Okay. Because I'll say, if you fuck me over, they're gone. And you could get made off. That's possible. But like, go to the name. You're not going to get made off from your business manager. You're going to get made off as an investment. like go to the name just go you're not gonna get made off from your business manager you're gonna get made up as an investment right like okay business manager is
Starting point is 01:49:49 just hey i make money when you make money okay got you right you still got all your money i'm just gonna be the one that's paying your bills and letting you know yo you're spending a lot yeah that's that whether i was talking to josh uh from the middle the minimalist is a minimalist podcast is a great podcast you guys should check out and he was saying that he knows a bunch of like cool money saving techniques

Starting point is 01:52:02 slash flagrant2. And we're back to the show. Bronny's kids. Yo, we should definitely talk. We should talk about that. You said LeBron's kids? LeBron's kids, yes. Okay.
Starting point is 01:52:14 Well, kid. We're talking about Bronny. Yeah. Yeah. What are you saying? What are you saying, Cass? I mean, you know what I'm going to say. You are a resident high school basketball expert.
Starting point is 01:52:24 Yes. So they had a tournament high school basketball expert. Yes. So they had a tournament this past weekend in Las Vegas. I forgot the actual name of the tournament, but Braun Stratford Greatness team was there. And it wasn't a live period, so there wasn't actual recruiting going on. But it was this tournament where the top almost high school players go to. And they won the tournament. And LeBron's getting a lot of flack for, you know, doing what he usually does when he goes to LeBron's games and being in the layup line, doing dunks with the kids, getting too excited,
Starting point is 01:52:53 like all this other shit. And people are thinking, like, he's taking attention away from the kids and, like, all this other bullshit. It's so absurd. These people are so fucking absurd. Are you fucking kidding me, dog? Are you kidding me? Like, you don't think these kids
Starting point is 01:53:12 aren't fucking ecstatic that the best player on planet Earth is on the sidelines rooting for these motherfuckers? Like, come on. What was that defense? I think that was the end of the game. I think they were, like, running the clock out, and he just said, fuck it. That was terrible defense? I think that was the end of the game. I think they were running the clock out, and he just said, fuck it.
Starting point is 01:53:27 That was a terrible defense, though. Yeah, they said he was showing up as a kid and doing too much. I obviously can't agree because they're dead. He's dad of the year. I would kill if my dad was there rooting for me. Skip Bayless, your dad didn't show up to your basketball games. That's why you're – Stop being a little bitch about it, right?
Starting point is 01:53:56 Like, you're crying because your dad wasn't there for you, Skip. Okay? We understand what this is happening. He wasn't going to come watch it. Why would he? Why would he watch you score one point a game? You guys could both sit at home on a couch, right? That's going to be the same activity.
Starting point is 01:54:11 That's what you're upset about. You could tell him what happened when he got home. Fam, exactly. What, did you score nothing again? I'm glad I saved some time. Stay at home, watch Roseanne, so I didn't have to waste my fucking time watching you. You can't have both of us sitting on a bench watching the game. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 01:54:24 Get out of here. That's why I go so hard for LeVar Ball. I go hard for LeBron, especially Dad Bron. I'm never, ever going to fucking fault somebody for being too involved in their kid's life. Are you kidding me? Who does his son... Can we watch that video again? Who does his son look at as soon as he dunks?
Starting point is 01:54:40 His dad. Isn't that the first person? And don't they just flex together? Yeah. Like it's a thing they got? Come on, man. Dude, it's great. I love it. There's dead. Isn't that the first person? And don't they just flex together like it's a thing they got? Dude, it's great. I love it. These people that hate on this, I mean, it's a different type of... I'm usually entertained
Starting point is 01:54:52 by Skip. I do not understand this from the dotted, too. I do not understand this hate. He starts high school this fall. So he's a middle school... He's a rising high school. He'll be a freshman this year. I mean, that's absurd. But yeah, I mean be a freshman this year I mean that's absurd but yeah
Starting point is 01:55:07 I mean it's just I mean like Skip come on there's way better takes that you can have this is just I kinda I kinda
Starting point is 01:55:13 applaud Skip at this point cause he's been committed to trolling LeBron since his rookie year cause it still works
Starting point is 01:55:21 cause it still works he's made a career out of it he's made a career out of it we're talking talking about it. He's made a career out of it. We're talking about it. It's like, fuck. He's still doing this shit. He had two hit talk shows where the basis is just him
Starting point is 01:55:33 talking to LeBron James, talking about LeBron James. 100%. I think LeBron should do a show one day. I think after he retires, he should do a co-sell Muhammad Ali type thing where they finally just sit down
Starting point is 01:55:44 and just talk. Nah, LeBron's too smart for that. He would never empower that. It would have to be on one of LeBron's platforms. Oh, it could be on LeBron. Yeah, you come on my shit, but he can't go on his. I mean, look, we would all love it. Skip would do it in a heartbeat.
Starting point is 01:55:59 It would be a win for Skip too. Hold on, I need to use the bathroom real quick. We'll be right back. Keep going. Nah, it would be a super win for Skip. Hold on, I need to use the bathroom real quick. We'll be right back. Keep going, keep going. No, it would be a super win for Skip. But I just think at this point, that's the only kind of comparison I could give it to. Like Muhammad Ali, Howard Cosell,
Starting point is 01:56:16 how they're just so tied to each other through good times and bad times. I don't know, I'm a Skip hater. You give Skip a lot of credit to call him Howard Cosell and to say they're tied together I have never once thought about LeBron and then Skip I thought about Skip and then LeBron
Starting point is 01:56:33 I never once thought about remember LeBron on the heat and what Skip was saying about him wasn't that crazy you gotta give it to Skip though cause it's like for what he does, there's only a handful of people that have been more successful than him.
Starting point is 01:56:48 You know, Skip, decades ago on the ticket that Station always listened to when it started, he was the first guy, he was like a host on the ticket.
Starting point is 01:56:55 Really? Yeah, none of the guys, he had a horrible relationship with all of them. He like, was humorless, whatever,
Starting point is 01:57:00 and then he obviously went on and now he's this troll that's like made million dollars. I mean, I remember him because he used to write like all the big Jordan articles. Well,
Starting point is 01:57:08 here's what's funny is, and I mean, there's who these guys are to a large degree. Stephen A. Smith does it hating the Cowboys. Skip loves the Cowboys. Now, when he worked in Dallas,
Starting point is 01:57:16 he hated the Cowboys. Never had a good thing to say. Always trashing them. And so I look at these guys like you're not a human being. You're just a robot. That's trying to upset me. And I'm not going to give you the attention to let you do that yeah no i remember reading so i forgot where i read it so forgive me for that but i remember him reading like he doesn't even check his mentions
Starting point is 01:57:34 on twitter he just checks the analytics so yeah if something spikes yeah that's that's the way he's going to go he's a robot i don't even know if he likes sports i really don't i think he's going to go. He's a robot. I don't even know if he likes sports. I really don't. I think he's just like, what can I say that will upset sports fans? How can I antagonize? These are people I can upset without worrying
Starting point is 01:57:51 they're going to kill me. It's not like XXX. You know what I mean? I can make jokes about LeBron and LeBron fans aren't going to come try to murder me. I'm not talking about X.
Starting point is 01:57:58 I'm talking about his fans. It's like, rap fans are going to try to kill you. Skip got a brawl though. You ain't going to run up on Skip. Skip got brawling. I don't think he was always this brawling. I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:58:05 I seen him recently. I'm like, yo, Skip really good. He's trying to let motherfuckers know he's brawling. You seen that commercial with him and Shannon? Yes, yes. Like who gets their day done first? Doing the same thing. Make sure you see him lifting weights.
Starting point is 01:58:15 But yeah, he's a weird dude who I don't honestly even know if he likes sports. I just think he knows this is a good way, easy way to make money. You know, it's also crazy. His brother is like A world class chef No shit In Chicago No shit He has a restaurant
Starting point is 01:58:29 I forget what it's called My homie Brian We met Brian He went there He said it was fantastic And Brian's a professional chef And he was like Skip
Starting point is 01:58:36 Skip Bales' brother Great food I kinda wanna go there It's weird because Food is like this Passionate thing That you gotta love for And Skip is A fucking Mutant of a human being who doesn't think anything except let me look my analytics on Twitter.
Starting point is 01:58:51 He's made millions of dollars. He's made a career out of antagonizing. That's why I don't want to give it the credit of like, fuck Skip. I'm like, I see what he's doing. Yeah. I mean, I get the game. I know what he's doing. Like, I ain't going to be pissed at that.
Starting point is 01:59:05 But just like, at this point, I more commend the commitment that he has to that role. Oh, he's a disciplined motherfucker. It's insane to me. Insane to me. Well, guys, this has been going pretty long. This has been a long-ass episode. What's it called? I want to close. First of all, I know that we got some dates.

Shout out to the boy, Edding tv we got that going so shout out to the boy edin for you know producing directing all that type of stuff so and uh yeah so keep supporting all the platforms and uh all that good shit so um before we end i want to do a i want to tell you guys a cool story that um some of you probably know quite well but it uh has hit a new uh plateau of sorts recently and i want to keep you filled in but um about three i think it's probably three years ago now or maybe a little bit more um i i decided to film my own special right and
Starting point is 02:02:07 that was special a lot of you guys saw as 441 and um and the reason i did it obviously i wasn't getting any opportunities in the business i felt like the business kind of blocked me out so i was like i'm gonna at least do everything in my power to get myself out there and um and obviously they said no and i found this new way to kind of deliver content, and I started putting up these clips and all that kind of transitioned into some buzz. Not just some buzz. Well, yeah, we definitely transitioned the business,
Starting point is 02:02:38 and we transitioned how you put out content into business. I'm doing it now. Would have never done it if it wasn't. Amazing job. And I think that you'll continue you know I hope that you continue
Starting point is 02:02:49 we have to because of you you changed there's a I remember the term paradigm shift I learned it in college and it's like changing
Starting point is 02:02:56 the way people think of something right right for some reason it's this term I always remember but that's actually what you've done
Starting point is 02:03:01 it's fucking crazy yeah yeah yeah Dwight Kanye man says he's gonna change some, and then he does it. My buddy said this. He called me. He was like, it's like Steph Curry, what he did to the NBA. He was like, what do you mean?
Starting point is 02:03:12 He goes, the game hasn't changed. It's how the game is played has changed. And I think that's kind of what people are doing with content now. Now, five, maybe more than five years ago seven years ago i don't know i i went to the just for laughs comedy festival in montreal it's the most prestigious comedy festival in the world and as a new face and even to get a new face i already had a network deal with mtv and i had two of my own shows coming out so like i had had to go like above and beyond to get what many people had to get you know know, got just because of heat.
Starting point is 02:03:45 Right. And it was I just had that relationship with the business at the time where they weren't like I don't think they all looked at me and saw he's going to be something. Right. And so I went and I, you know, had an OK festival and then I didn't get offered to come back for like five years. And we would email them and ask them to come. We wouldn't get any response, whatever. for like five years and we would email them and ask them to come we wouldn't get any response whatever last year um after you guys sharing all my clips and selling out these shows and all these cool things happening with me you know we got this offer to come to the festival and we
Starting point is 02:04:13 said we're not going to come unless we could do our own show my own headline show they acquiesce we went there we had a cool festival it was fun my first time back this year they asked to uh if i if i would come back to do the show. And I said, we'll only come back if we get to do the Nasty Show, which is one of the most prominent shows at the festival and a show that I used to watch Patrice O'Neill on. And that's why I thought it was so important for me just to accomplish walking his footsteps. And I wanted to do Inside Jokes and Unsafe Sets there as well. And they were down. And I wanted to do inside jokes and unsafe sets there as well.
Starting point is 02:04:44 And they were down. And I went up there and I did the Nasty Show. And, again, this is like the same festival that hadn't thought that I was going to be something. They didn't think that I was going to need to – they didn't think they needed to invest in me per se. And I was up there and I had some really good shows at the Nasty Show. And all these reviews started coming in and people were saying great things. And they put me on – the biggest thing at the Just for Laughs is a gala. A gala is they usually have a celebrity like a comic or even like a superstar like famous actor will host it.
Starting point is 02:05:26 And they'll write jokes for them and then they bring up maybe eight or 10 other comics. The thinker who do things. And you perform in this venue, it's like 3,500 people. It's like fucking Carnegie Hall. It was unbelievable. And they asked me while I'm up there because the reviews have been going well for these nasty shows.
Starting point is 02:05:37 And they're like, do you want to do this gala? It's Anthony Jeselnik's gala. And the famous comic. And I was like, yeah, sure. I'll fucking, I'll do it.'s that's pretty awesome thank you so much and um so i i go to this moment where i'm at the gala i go up second and um here we are you know maybe seven years ago it was the first time i was able to go there and then like this big gap with nothing and then i uh you know we built this fucking machine and you guys sharing these clips and making these things go viral we change a business and i'm at this moment
Starting point is 02:06:09 where i'm at like the highest stage of the most i guess prestigious festival right and uh there's a little bit part of me that's there like okay i know i have this hype but i'm sure there's a lot of people watching like am i going to live up to the hype there's still a lot of people there they're like you know is he good i know we hear the clips and we've seen him on rogan but we don't know if he can really you know do it and uh and i went up there and i have a seven minute spot and i went up and um i fucking laid in and what happens is you walk off the stage and they make you walk back on because it's a TV taping and I walked off the stage and I walked back on
Starting point is 02:06:48 and fucking 3,000 people were standing up and it was unreal man it was like I got a little emotional and it was like the reason I share this story is because it's like in that moment I didn't
Starting point is 02:07:04 feel validated by them what I felt was proud that like one I knew that I could do it but two like we found a way to it yeah you know like I'm sure there's so many people in regardless of what your situation is you're gonna hear no and you're gonna hear or people just not believe in you, et cetera. And it's like, we found a way around everybody that said no to the point where they all believe so much that I was given this opportunity. And then given that opportunity, it was like, this is what,
Starting point is 02:07:33 what are you going to do with this opportunity? Right. And to like deliver in that fucking moment, like there's rarely in life are you going to be given moments where you've got to deliver. And it was just so, it was a sense of pride, and I was very grateful, obviously, for you
Starting point is 02:07:50 guys for building this, and for everybody listening for spreading the word. I want to share that story because I think we had a big win this weekend. I get that you're going to say you're grateful to us. You did it. I appreciate it. I'm not going to talk to myself every day.
Starting point is 02:08:06 But it was a big win. I think some cool things will happen after it because I think the difference is I went from a guy who was on some podcasts and talking in terms of the industry's mind to a guy who they saw deliver in the moment. And again, I went there with the mentality, I have what I want and we're building what we want outside of this. a guy who they like saw deliver in the moment and again I went there with the mentality like I have what I want
Starting point is 02:08:28 and we're building what we want outside of this if things come cool they don't come cool that's what I was going to ask do you want their things still? no it's not like for me what I wanted to come out of this story also was and you said it so you know brilliantly Kaz when you had
Starting point is 02:08:44 no issue with WWE after you got fired and you said it so you know brilliantly Kaz when you had no issue with WWE after you got fired and you're like yeah there's no it's okay and now you're back doing your own show on WWE
Starting point is 02:08:51 and like it was one of those things that I realized thanks for breaking that news it's all good no we said it yeah we did yeah yeah we said it
Starting point is 02:08:58 for those who don't know but Kaz is doing the morning show on WWE he has his own show now but like and that's what you happen when you have a disposition
Starting point is 02:09:04 like Kaz, which is, I'm not going to hold a grudge and be angry and say, fuck you. This, that, the other, I'm just going to go,
Starting point is 02:09:10 thanks for the opportunity. And like, I'm sure, I'm sure so many people were maybe expecting me, you know, to talk about JFL or these types of things. Like how could they not? Da da da.
Starting point is 02:09:20 For me, there is no, there is no grudges in business. If it's good business, we do good business. It's simple as that. I'm not going to let you not believing in me stop me from doing business with you. Let me tell you, man. Anytime you were in a business, we're all in the business of we need some sort of validation as far as getting on certain places, stages, whatever.
Starting point is 02:09:44 One, you never want getting on certain places, stages, whatever. One, you never want to burn a bridge. And two, you never want to be at a point where, you know, you're not grateful for that moment because this podcast, your standup,
Starting point is 02:09:57 your tour, Palooza, everything like all that shit could be going tomorrow. And I'm like, yo, at least I did that shit. Gratitude, man.
Starting point is 02:10:05 And if you keep that attitude to anything you have in life, man, I guarantee you it may not happen immediately, but eventually shit will start to pile up and then good things will happen. People will notice it, man. People notice. And to put a little bow on this, last year, and people will notice and people will start to change and you have to be ready for their change.
Starting point is 02:10:28 You know, F.A. I think said to me once, he's like, prophets let people convert, right? Now, this is not me calling myself prophet, but what I'm saying is,
Starting point is 02:10:36 you have to let non-believers become believers. If you resent every person that didn't believe in you, then you'll never have anybody to take yeah you'll never have anything and the reality is in a weird way i'm so grateful because they forced me to create this thing this this this monster that can move the business right so it's just like i'm grateful for the nose because they exposed me to who i am and what i can do right if i just got every opportunity in my face i wouldn't be close to as strong
Starting point is 02:11:06 of a comic or close to as strong as a podcast or any of this type of shit so to put things in perspective last year for the New York Comedy Festival we were supposed to do a Flagrant 2 live show and the New York Comedy Festival for whatever reason had a beef against me
Starting point is 02:11:21 and then I guess a couple weeks before they just cancelled the Flagrant 2 live show from the festival. Yeah. They said you can still do it, but it can't be part of the festival, which is why we're doing it. Doesn't make any fucking sense, yeah. And it's just like, I have no fucking clue why. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:11:35 That exact guy, a few days ago, emailing my agent, how do we get Andrew Schultz at the New York Comedy Festival? Now, it's very easy for me to tell my agent, how do we get Andrew Schultz at the New York Comedy Festival? Now, it's very easy for me to tell my agent, tell him to go fuck himself. You know? It doesn't do anything. It gives you nothing in that situation. You already won.
Starting point is 02:11:58 When they make that call, they know that they're swallowing their pride to make the call. And on some level, I even respect it that you're able to have business. There are certain networks out there that they still can't deal with the fact that they were wrong about me. So they want to continue the block. And it's purely ego. And that's not how you make money.
Starting point is 02:12:19 That's not how you do business. Remove the ego from business. Now, the New York Comedy Festival festival this year i already booked the show at town hall a week after and that was my fuck you to them right it's like you're not going to keep me in your festival i'll do the show the week after and i'll sell that shit out just to let you motherfuckers know right but it all i guess i'm trying to say is it was a cool moment in my career to like fully come around that blockade and uh yeah i wouldn't be able to do it without you guys it would be nothing so i'm very grateful for everybody here and i hope that maybe there's something you guys took from that story it's a
Starting point is 02:12:56 great way to congrats man congrats on that man yeah that's on everybody good things are happening for everyone i like that absolutely except those Somali chicks without the clips. That was full circle. Perfect. End it. This has been Flavor 2. Peace. God bless.
