National, so it's celebrateeveryday.com.
And it is, of course, National Bubba Day and National Rocky Road Day.
And God bless for National Bubba Day.
Just wonderful.
It's important.
It doesn't mean anything, I don't think.
Like, it says that it celebrates anybody named Bubba.
Spoken to someone who doesn't have a Bubba close to their heart.
Right, exactly.
I guess that's on me.
National Rocky Road Day. I like ice cream with shit in it.
Just not this combo, though.
So, I'm sorry to the Rocky Road contingent out there who lobbied so hard to get this day nationally recognized.
But don't like just raw peanuts in my ice cream.
Don't like marshmallows in my ice cream that much.

Happy to see your face again.
It's, you know,
a little inside baseball
for all our friends here.
Jaquese and I are both fans
of a fast food chain
called Raising Cane's
that has been teasing us
with the opening
of a Los Angeles County restaurant
in the Burbank area.
And we've just been fiending to finally get our hands on it.
And I have previously teased Jaquese with a potential opening.
And let me tell you something.
I was wrong.
I was wrong.
You were wrong, man.
So I'm saying it on the air right now.
I'm saying it on the air right now.
When that Raising Cane's finally opens,
I will be hand delivering a box combo, as promised,
to Jaquese for my lies, for my misleading quotes,
for trusting literally anybody on Reddit for more than one second.
That's on me, and I will pay the price.
And you think that one hand delivery
is going to make up for that?
No, it won't.
It won't.
Because, you know, he's going to give me the hand for that? No, it won't. It won't.
He's going to give me the hand delivery of the Raising Cane's.
And I already told Daniel
I'm just going to give him these hands.
You know,
and return, you know,
slap the box out of my hand.
Yep.
That's all right, man. Sensational.
It's all good. It's all good. What's up? What's up?
Listen, I know I always forget the searches and the overrated and underrated, but I got some shit today.
All right. Let's go. We are going to get to know you a little bit better via your search history, overrated and underrated.
First, we're going to tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking about.
We're talking about Governor Gavin Newsom, who is apparently just on a cakewalk to re-election.
And one of the big things, the first thing that anybody mentions is, I mean, he's got this big surplus.
This dude is killing it.
Look at that surplus.
And I just want to dig into that for five minutes.
I'm not going to go too long on that.
But I just want to interrogate that idea that that's a good thing.
Then we're going gonna spend most of this
show just making fun of sweden you know yeah weeks of americans having to take a hard look in the
mirror and now you know it's time i think america came together and was like yeah but look at these
assholes they don't even feed children when they are sleeping over at their house. So we're going to look at that. We're going to ask the question of like the weirdest,
you know, dining habits, the weirdest, our weirdest experiences over at a friend's house,
food related, otherwise. And we're going to talk about Netflix making adjustments.
They've said no more of these mid-level shows that no one watches no more of these mid-level
movies that no one watches now we're making huge budget movies that no one watches so
yeah all of that plenty more but first jakeith we do like to ask our guest what is something from your search history everyone have some sad news
when i say sad i'm very upset but as of last week uh me and donald trump have something in common uh we have both been permanently banned from twitter.com both i got the trump ban
as in they permanently suspended my account and say you can't make new accounts although i will
but you will see how that works but you can't make new accounts would you like to know so my
search history i've been looking ways to get your ban and your suspension
reversed that is what i've been looking at i have appealed it i've gotten denied twice
they say now you're gonna stay banned so if anybody out there has a contact at twitter
hit me up on instagram or some shit hit your boy up i'm trying to get it back here's why i got
banned y'all i have to assume it's you you you know came within inches of bringing u.s civilization
to its knees overturning the electoral process with just massive conspiracy theories that caused
people to murder other people uh based on the company you're keeping whoa whoa no no no it was
something much worse than that i did something even worse than that oh boy so on the day of the
shooting in texas where all the children lost their lives due to our obsession with guns in
this country some bitch wrote online you know despite what, and I'm using the word bitch.
Let's stop right there with despite.
Yeah, it was a dude.
I'm just going to call him a bitch because that's what he is.
He wrote, despite what happened today, this is still the greatest country in the world to live in.
And people from all over the world would love to live here that's what this motherfucker wrote so i should have ignored it
you know what i'm saying it was a blue check mark i should have ignored it but i just wrote
i wrote i hope you stub your toe I hope your knees always hurt.
And I hope you always have a piece of hair stuck in your throat for saying that dumb ass shit about children getting murdered. That was my tweet.
And within 10 minutes, I got permanently banned from Twitter for inciting physical harm.
Are you fucking kidding?
That's such trash.
For inciting physical harm and violence against other people and abuse.
Inciting physical harm and violence against other people and abuse.
I got permanently banned, been twice denied for a reversal of my permanent ban for telling someone, I hope you stub your toe.
You have a piece of hair stuck in your throat. They said I was not promoting other people their right to have their own views.
And I responded with abuse and violence and wish
of physical harm and
I have been permanently banned
from Twitter. The same Twitter
account where I report
people who have called
me nigger, hard R
and just put spaces in
between and Twitter
comes back and says they haven't violated
any rules. There's spaces there.
Yeah.
I reported somebody who said,
who said, you know what?
I hope they don't overturn Roe v. Wade
because black women get abortions the most
and with abortions, that's less black children.
I reported that.
They told me this does not violate twitter rules saying stub a toe
permanently banned from twitter that's what you're talking matt i think that was matt iglesias who
said that yes i remember seeing that and having the the wish in my heart that he would stub his
toe and uh feel like he has something stuck in his throat.
Maybe even inhale through his nose a little black pepper
and then just sneeze for a couple hours.
Sneeze.
Crazy, man.
Yep, that's what it is.
You know.
That's interesting.
Crazy, man.
Interesting Twitter.
Terrible.
Ain't it?
Ain't it grand?
Ain't it grand?
So that's my search history.
That's been my search history.
But outside of, you know, porn.
You know, let's be real.
I'm still looking for porn.
You know, I'm still looking for the perfect porn.
If anybody out there knows the perfect porn, let me know.
And, you know, listen, we all have our sexual preferences.
I enjoy the view of a beautiful lady in my porn so if you got the perfect porn
send it to me i want to know beautiful women you say okay beautiful just beautiful women you know
beautiful women beautiful women uh i don't like black.com uh don't send me cash very specific one's all right we're getting off topic we're getting off topic yeah man so that's
my flight that's that's part of the reason i don't have song in my heart today yeah what is
something you think is underrated uh the summer movie blockbuster underrated okay here's what i mean by that you know in the past few years we have
basically just come to accept the superhero movie for the most part of just being the summer
blockbuster the event the marvel the dc you know things of that nature i went to go see top gun
yesterday it was fucking fantastic it was fucking fantastic. Boom. It was fucking fantastic.
And the type of summer blockbuster that has gone away.
You know, like when we were growing up and kids, you know, we had Independence Day and like all that shit that was summer blockbusters.
But now the summer blockbuster, most people only view Marvel and those type of movies
as the summer blockbuster and they resent it and they
resent going to the theater and they say theaters are dying and i'm telling you man the theater was
packed yesterday top gun is doing well it is very fucking good big numbers it is a nice little old
to classic old school summer blockbusters that didn't have nothing to do with super and i love the mcu don't get me wrong
i'm not shitting on the mcu i'm there every fucking movie they put out yeah but yeah man like go go to
the movies and see these other movies don't let marvel and superhero movies overtake what we
consider the summer blockbuster being which is movie stars making good fucking movies like that's
it or even if they're bad movies just movie stars making movies some action some little romance
jennifer connelly's fine ass in that movie tom cruise 80 years old still jumping out of fucking
planes and shit like it's great it's great i loved it. Summer blockbuster movies, man.
They're underrated because a lot still come out.
It's just the majority of people only go see the ones that are going to make $400 million
when it's all said and done.
Totally.
This was the first movie this year
that has been an above-expectation hit
that wasn't set in a multiverse of some sort
either everything everywhere all at once or uh one of the marvel movies that was all about
multiverses so it is really a return to a world where we all live in a single universe in the
same universe that we currently live in yeah and with some shit you know also
people people be wilding on the internet man like i you know because i i uh you know i can still go
on twitter and i'm in read-only mode so i can still see some shit if i search for things and
i just wanted to see what people were saying about top gun and of course you don't get too far until you get to I tell you
too bad people are watching Top Gun since it's just military propaganda
that was our story yesterday
I'm just I'm not saying I'm still gonna see the shit out of it and go see the shit I mean sure
I'm not gonna like let my kids watch it necessarily probably yeah probably not yeah but it was just like man i get it but
give us the right to not give a shit about that for two fucking hours like you know god damn i
mean how much money how much military money goes into marvel movies as well it's like oh yeah it's
it's hard to avoid in any context.
It's, you know, so much money is being floated around to these movies that push a certain message that is hidden deep within the narrative itself.
Some are more surface level, but it doesn't mean that the money isn't there in the ones that we claim to be, like, free from this kind of influence and stuff.
So, I'm with you.
Enjoy what you want to enjoy.
It's ACAB all day. It's Puck 12 all day. Always'm with you. Enjoy what you want to enjoy. It's ACAB all day.
It's Puck 12 all day.
Always carry a Bible.
F the police all day.
But when Bad Boys 4 come out,
I'm going to be right in the theater.
Let's go, Mike Lowry.
Exactly.
Let's go, Martin Lawrence.
I'm going to be right there
rooting for my Miami cops, baby.
We love the boys.
We love to see him doing it.
What is something you think is overrated?
Binging.
I think it's done.
Binging.
I think it's fucking done.
Interesting.
I think it's done.
I think Stranger Things is the biggest thing out right now, right?
And it was great.
I finished it in fucking two days.
Even in a long as seven episodes.
And part two is coming out on July 1st with basically a movie, two movies, like an episode that's an hour 40, an episode that's 240.
So it's basically two movies coming out on July 1st.
And that's going to be it.
That's that's how.
Well, no, that's no, they're still doing season.
So season five, they say is going to be it.
So this won't even be the series finale.
Got it.
And it was great.
It was cool.
You know, I had a good time.
I watched it, talked about it for the day or two.
I watched it.
But like in a couple of days, I'm done with it.
And so will a lot of other people be done with it.
Yeah.
As opposed to even a show that nobody knows like made for love right on hbo
max which i thought was pretty good show who they do weekly drops even if it's two episodes a week
those shows are still being talked about in the zeitgeist just as long if not longer than this
mega hit that you know netflix has that gets talked about for a week because we all just
binge it watch it we don't have just we don't have true discourse about it we get memes we'll mention
it we'll probably do a thread but man there's something fun about i call it water cooler
television and we're at the end of the week at the end of the episode you talk about it for a few days
you get excited and then you don't talk about it for a few days you get excited and then
you don't talk about it for a couple days then the next episode comes back and like that cycle repeats
i i love the binging obviously i'll still binge it when it comes out but the excitement that i saw
with it three four five six years ago when people's like man this is how tv is gonna be
i think that shit is done i think people have
re-embraced weekly drops because that is a better way to consume television just because you just
get to live with the characters longer you get to think about it instead of watching basically a
seven hour movie which is what we're doing with benji if you like fly through it i could not agree with this take
harder like the fact it also puts pressure on like cultural critics and people whose job it
is to write about this stuff that it's like you don't get to have an extended take you don't get
to analyze in small bunches like it's okay the whole thing is out i have to take in the whole
thing and like write about it or form an opinion about it. And and and also as a viewer, if you are not watching it at midnight, right when it drops and like, you know, taking in the whole thing, you're behind two days later.
It's it's it's just like unfair to the viewer to like be like, OK, well, now you have to binge it.
Because if you God forbid you go on Twitter and someone says what happens at the end of the episode, which you know is going to happen with every one of these bingeable shows.
Yeah.
Yeah.
People talk about it.
You can't even get mad about it.
It's just what the Internet is.
It's there.
I might as well.
Yeah, exactly.
You know.
But like when WandaVision was coming out, man, that shit was great to talk about that for like six, seven weeks.
It was dope.
The best.
It was dope.
The boy is about to drop.
We're going to be talking about that for a little bit.
Severance like dropped and people was talking about that i it made me want to watch severance
because i kept seeing people talk about it for fucking four five six weeks as opposed to just
one week everybody talks about it i mean like i don't want to watch that and then it leaves the
sight guys and then i forget about it i'll tell you you what. Go watch that. I enjoyed it. I don't know what the discourse is on that show, but I really liked it.
Severus is great.
Hell yeah.
I feel bad when I binge stuff, too.
Like, I don't know.
Like, I feel like I lose sleep.
You know, it's just bad.
Which I don't think there is there an application of the word binge that is like, and that's good for you.
Like, it's never. Never. No. Even if you're binging fucking celery juice, I feel like and that's good for you like it's never never no even if you're
binging fucking celery juice i feel like it's not good for you that's not that's not how you're
supposed to consume celery juice there's no binging in any form that's technically good for
you ben's drinking bitch eating binge whatever you know it's all bad per se i'd be feeling bad too my eyes be hurting and shit
like we all gonna be yo millennials i all my millennials out there listening right now
and i guess my gen zers too because you were basically born with it you know we'd be we'd
be laughing at all our elders right now because they'd be you know be getting old and frail and
eyes be hurting and ears

learn your learn because we gonna we gonna need that shit when we elders man because we're gonna
be fucked up all the stuff we're doing yeah i feel like we're also gonna have like a lot of like
bone density issues like we're like tried to take two steps at once and like leg snapped in half because we i feel like we're
closer than any uh generation any like portion of human evolution has ever been to the characters
from wally we're just like yeah we lazy bro you're lazy you're lazy as hell i like made an order on
walmart that i could just went to go grab.
It was like six things.

It took me 15, 20 minutes.
I was like, I don't feel like waiting all that time.
Made a pickup order, put all this shit in the cart just so I could just save 10 minutes of walking through a store and have them bring it out to me.
I was like, this is the laziest shit
i've ever done and i was so happy with myself when i when i left it was like i say 10 minutes

I'm Keri Champion, and this is season four of Naked Sports,
where we live at the intersection of sports and culture.
Up first, I explore the making of a rivalry,
Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese.
I know I'll go down in history. People are talking about women's basketball just because
of one single game. Every great player needs a foil. I ain't really near them. Why is that?
Just come here and play basketball every single day, and that's what I focus on.
From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports.
Angel Reese is a joy to watch. She is unapologetically
black. I love her.
What exactly ignited this fire?
Why has it been so good for the game?
And can the fanfare surrounding these
two supernovas be sustained?
This game is only going to get better
because the talent is getting better.
This new season will cover all things
sports and culture. Listen to Naked

How do you feel about biscuits? Hi, I'm Akilah Hughes, and I'm so excited about my new podcast,
Rebel Spirit, where I head back to my hometown in Kentucky and try to convince my high school
to change their racist mascot, the Rebels, into something everyone in the South loves, the Biscuits.
I was a lady rebel.
Like, what does that even mean?
The Boone County Rebels will stay the Boone County Rebels with the image of the Biscuits.
It's right here in black and white in print.
They lying.
An individual that came to the school saying that God sent him to talk to me about the mascot switch.
As a leader, you choose hills that you want to die on.
Why would we want to be the losing team?
I just take all the other stuff out of it.
Segregation academies.
When civil rights said that we need to integrate public schools, these charter schools were exempt from that.
Bigger than a flag or mascot.
You have to be ready for serious backlash.
Listen to Rebel Spirit on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
back and one of the things i keep hearing when people talk about like newsom's campaign and the fact that he's kind of like a shoe in for re-election is that california has a 975 billion
dollar surplus i remember when he was being recalled by that terrifying republican people
were still the the surplus was the thing that like that news came through and everyone was like never mind
this person this dude is killing it and like there are definitely plans he's talked about of like how
to spend some of the money but just generally like having a surplus is not a good thing if the money is not being spent on people like that money is not doing you as a californian
any good sitting in the bank it's not good for you to live in a state that has a lot of money
if they don't spend the money yeah and yeah so like that's one like you you could say oh but
like the surplus was kind of a windfall he didn't expect it to be you know he didn't know
it was all coming and there was like covet aid and that but the fact that this has turned into
like such a positive in like the messaging around his campaign makes me a little bit worried because
i know that how that feedback loops where like this is a quote from him no other state in american
history has ever experienced a surplus
as large as this that was him like at a news conference that means you're not doing your job
dude like that like you need to spend the money on the people who you are in charge of taking care
of california is facing a historic water crisis horrendous mental health and like unhoused problems and he has plans
to spend on on those things in public school but like there he's not spending as much as he could
be because there's that surplus other portions of the surplus would be set aside in the state's
cash reserves is another quote from that article so yeah i don't know it's like
it's a holdover from the days of clinton where they started talking about government like it
was a business like a corporation so instead of like putting money towards public health you were
investing in health care companies in the health care sector and we started thinking about the
government like a corporation or or like a person you, because that's the only like I can barely conceive of my own finances, let alone, you know, like a government have a lot of money. But if they have a lot of money and their tendency is to not spend that money on the people, then that's just nothing.
They're just taking that money from the people and not doing anything with it.
Yeah, this is a very easy concept to understand.
Including for people who think that this money shouldn't be going back to people.
And it's like, well, that's just your selfishness, you know, coming out because California is technically our parent.
Right. We live here. We task California with taking care of us for putting a state over our head and food on our tables.
You know what I'm saying?
That is what we task California with doing.
So imagine that, you know, your mom or your dad is a millionaire.
So much money, you know, so much money.
And, you know, you got a little roof over your head, but they never fix the ceiling.
Right.
You don't get no good food your clothes got
holes in it and shit yeah your car break down every damn day they literally and you're not 18
yet right you still you're a child you're a child you're still let's say you're six years old you
six years old you need your parents to financially but they was like nah man there's extra money i got i'm gonna
save it for a rainy day bitch it's pouring pouring in the house it's pouring in the living room it's
pouring you got this money from the president to take care of me because it's raining so much
and you're like hey look how much money we got it's crazy yeah i mean like gas bro we gas is over
six dollars six like dollars here in california in la at least yeah we a dollar away from people
calling out of work for gas yeah i can't i can't come to work today bro i ain't got no gas man and
like like that shit is legitimate that's gonna be a legitimate, well, to terrible corporations or bosses, it won't be.
But for those of us who have a heart, that's a legitimate reason.
With how much we got to commute and send in our card.
This state is crazy, bro.
This state is crazy.
It's even crazier when you know how much extra money we got.
And it even smacks of the conversation around the postal service when people were like,
the postal service isn't making enough money. It's like, it's not supposed to make any money yeah it's not it's
not a business no it's not a business and neither is running a state you know neither is any any of
this it's like having extra money goes to the people full stop that's how it's that's how it
is supposed to be that's how it should always be and uh we've lost sight of that we're not we
rather the people who are in power have lost sight of that.
Yeah.
And they,
they got a lot of it from taxes of like extremely wealthy people.
And,
but like,
that's not going to last.
They're going to find a fucking loophole to get out of that.
So like we got,
we got to spend that money,
spend the money while we have it.
Yeah.
Get that money to get that money to me,
bro.
Give me just
give me 500 a month i don't even need it i just want it give me 500 a month you can afford it
they can afford they can afford to give everybody i i did you know i've seen articles about this
and you never know the legitimacy about them or if it's true. And for everybody who don't live in California who has listened to us
talk about this Californian state,
move.
It's happening in your state too.
It's happening in your state too, but
we just have nice weather, so
we deal with it.
They mentioned universal
income here in California
before or there are tests running in or some some shit, test driving, or whatever you call it.
If we are going toward a nation, which it seems increasingly so that we are, where more and more things are going to be left up to the state, then let your state be the best fucking state like we should be we should be racing each
other like oh new york doing this let me go ahead and do that we should treat this like it's a sport
and just like and have people wanting to come here because california takes care of you so
goddamn well you have the social things that they do well here.
You got the financial things, the economic things, all the things that California can do for you.
But, you know, it'll never happen.
Well, speaking of the fact that California is my daddy and I'm just baby.
Sweden.
Something went viral this week where someone was like, you know, when I was growing up, I was over at my friend's house in Sweden. Something went viral this week where someone was like,
you know,
when I was growing up,
I was over at my friend's house in Sweden and his parents were like,
it's time for dinner.
And he was like,
all right.
So I started walking with him and his mom was like,
no,
you wait up there.
He'll be back in 30 minutes after he eats dinner.
And people were like,
wow, that's wild. And people from Sweden were like, what do eats dinner and people are like wow that's wild and
people from sweden were like what do you mean that's wild that's that's just normal that's how
you don't you don't get dinner just because i invited you over to play doesn't mean you get
dinner at our household so this exploded i think there's a couple things first of all it's genuinely
weird and it's also genuinely fun to like talk to each other about just like weird shit that's like when i was growing up the primary
way that i learned how weird my family was but also like how weird any family could be
was going over to friends houses and yeah so so it's like sort of a global version of that but
i also think people are just like man america uh looks like shit and you know we talked yesterday
about how the the police in florida like arrested a 10 year old and like paraded like publicly
arrested a 10 year old and and shared his mugshot everywhere.
And we're like, not on our watch, asshole.
And it turned out it was for a fake threat.
He was saying he had bought a bunch of assault rifles and he hadn't.
But they were reacting like a bully, you know, who like after we saw what the police did in Texas
and how they just waited outside and wouldn't even let
people go in told the police who eventually went in and killed the gunman like that they should
wait like the police look really bad so like that is the bully after they get tested and revealed to
be like really soft then like coming in and you know punching a kindergartner to try and like keep some sense of self.
I feel like this,
the Swedengate story
is sort of the American internet version of that
where we're like,
well, at least we're not that backward shithole.
Right.
And that backward shithole in this case,
Sweden.
Yeah.
Hey, Swedes.
I don't know much about you.
You know, I know you got some chocolate.
You can share it with us.
You know what I'm saying?
I know you got an army.
Is that Switzerland or Sweden?
Yeah, you're right.
See, I don't know much about you.
I know you got some fish.
I know you got some fish you share with us.
Sweetest chocolate low-key, though.
You should actually check that out.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sweetest chocolate is good?
Is it good?
I have no idea. I'm just writing for the keys all the way through. Thank you. Thank you for that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Swedish chocolate is good? Is it good? I have no idea.
I'm just writing for cookies all the way through.
Thank you.
Thank you for that.
Thank you for the fish.
You know what I'm saying?
The Swedish fish.
We appreciate it.
It's delicious.
Love those.
Delicious.
Love.
Appreciate it.
It is my favorite.
I think the best tasting fish there is.
It is.
I'm not a pescatarian, but I think that is my favorite fish.
Damn good fish.
Me too.
I don't like fish, but I will eat some Swedish fish, boy.
So, you know, y'all doing something right over there.
Y'all doing something right over there.
But look, man, this is an equal opportunity fucked up world.
Yeah.
You know, there's a lot of fucked up shit everywhere.
And, you know, whenever we can look at other countries and be like
damn you know it gives us a it gives us a nice sense of of relief to know that we ain't the
only ones dealing with fucked up countries and worlds and people and shit like that
so you gotta excuse us for you know reveling in other people's shit them because we're a shithole
ourselves but we just pretend like we're great amen that's amen that's what it is we pretend
like we're great we're good at pretending we are very good at pretending that's great we're great
i i'm interested in about a quote in this article that's you know as a child growing up in gothenburg
i remember not really caring at all that that I wasn't being fed. I just
continued playing. It was a quick pause.
You're reading right now. I just want to make
clear that you were not a child
growing up in Gothenburg. No, no, no.
I didn't know this, Dan. I didn't know you were growing up in Gothenburg.
A quote from the article.
Quote. Everything I just
said. It was just a quick pause.
Probably because they didn't want
to mess up my family's plans
but at that point my question is if you didn't want to mess with your family's plans why are
you hanging out at dinner time with that that logic that doesn't that doesn't follow logically
in terms of like well if you don't want to mess my family's plans don't yeah come to hang out
at dinner time is that this was an article in the The Independent. Linda Johansson called the practice of not feeding children when they're over your house
no big deal.
And her defense was like, yo, like, what if my parents want to feed me?
Then why are you there?
And it's like, well, then your friend's parents call your parents and say, hey, is it cool
if they eat over here or you call your parents?
Easy peasy.
parents and say, hey, is it cool if they eat over here or you call your parents?
Easy peasy.
I thought the most revealing detail of her defense of the practice.
And again, it is definitely a cultural thing.
I think when you read into it, it's that they feel like by feeding someone else's child,
they are showing that family up and being like, oh, that family needs my help uh which is weird and y'all should look at that but it's you know it is what it is uh
but then in this article where she's like trying to explain that is no big deal she says times have
changed too today it's a different story in sweden now if you have one child who comes over
they would likely get food as well oh so one child two kids you get the fuck out that's a bridge too
far baby that is so funny that she was like i've even heard of people who are willing to feed
a single child if they come over now more than that it's out of the question too
much sorry gotta go i i would love to i would love to see like the one swedish family who does
like feed like multiple kids and but makes it but actually does make it like all right everybody i
know y'all ain't got this good ass food at y'all ain't got this good-ass food that y'all built. They're really rubbing it real good.
Go ahead and sit down.
Go ahead and sit down at our kitchen table.
You know, nice little tablecloth, nice plush seats.
We're going to have what we call here steak.
You know what I'm saying?
We call this here steak.
Not with that A1 sauce either.
Just salt and pepper, baby.
Salt, you know, just rub it in.
And then when they leave, be like, all right, now you tell your mama that her ass can't cook like I can.
That's what would happen in America.
Unfortunately, facts.
Yeah, it would turn into some measuring stick.
Yeah, probably so.
Have you guys ever been over at a friend's house and had anything like this happen?
No.
Never.
No.
Never.
I've gone over to a friend's house and cooked in a kitchen.
There you go.
Especially when I was a kid.
Mom walks in and you're like at the stove stir frying some shit.
Especially if we like good friends.
I don't know if that's a cultural thing with just black families and shit.
As long as you ain't fucking up her dishes. I remember one time I was making some hash browns.
I spent the night over a homie's house and was making some hash browns in the morning.
And the mom wouldn't care.
But then she came in and she was like, are you using are you using a fork on my nonstick?
And that's what she was mad at.
I'm mad at the food.
She's mad. I was fucking up her skillet yeah i've learned that lesson the hard way as well yeah so no i i've
never i've never experienced this i it's also been a very long time since i've been a child so like i
can't necessarily remember every instance but i can't remember ever not being fed at somebody's house or even
like them calling my family like it's okay if he eats here if food is being served yeah like
more than more more than anything it'll be boy sit your ass down and eat we eat not even like
yo are you hungry would you like food it's like no sit your ass down and yeah we eating right now this food time yeah and i think i think it's there's a lot
of countries that's like very customary and like not eating the food is considered extremely rude
and yeah like and letting someone leave your house without having eaten anything is extremely rude i will the the only
time i've heard of something like this was with a very wealthy family and they were kind of weird
about they didn't want they didn't want to share their caviar yeah it wasn't it wasn't me but uh
it's i'm not going to get into details because i don't want to like blow up anyone's spot but we only got three trays of uni couldn't do a fourth yeah exactly well you know that's how it
goes man the richer you are the more distingue you are yeah unfortunately how they got that way
yeah that's true yeah i definitely like got exposed to some wild eating habits i think
i've talked before about my friend who ate raw hot dogs just out of the fridge without cooking would just eat them what yeah which is really gross but i did it
because he was like older and cooler than me and so i was like yeah i love this it was so bad
you was lying i know your friend taught you early i get. That in the moment peer pressure is hard to deal with.
And so she's like, yeah, go for it.
And you're like, yeah.
Also, taste buds change, though.
Taste buds change.
That too.
You know, like I used to, I mean, I still eat hot dogs, but like I would make some hot, you know, struggle foods.
And then you get older and be like, this hot dog don't taste that good.
Right.
Like you just notice it.
That's fair. this hot dog don't taste that good. Like you just notice it. Like, I don't think this tastes that good.
Because you go over somebody's house
where you eat hot dogs at your crib,
but you go over somebody's house
and they'd be like,
I know you're eating them whack-ass hot dogs
at your crib,
but go ahead and sit down here.
We got some steak here for you.
And then you get a taste of steak.
You're like, ooh, hot dogs suck.
I want some more steak.
Maybe that's why sweets don't do it really stick in my mind of like eating eating like i can still
remember like biting into that hot dog and like that it was first of all it revealed to me oh
hot dogs are just like bologna and stick shape yeah like that's and there's no like skin or
like difference of like on the outside It's just all the same thing.
It's fire.
But then a different family, hot dog spaghetti was something that they made.
Like sliced up hot dogs in the spaghetti, which was gross.
And I still think about that to this day.
That's some white shit right there.
Yeah.
The white people of the Midwest were surviving on hot dogs.
Real homemade SpaghettiOs thing.
Yeah.
I had SpaghettiOs growing up, but hot dogs and spaghetti, man,
that's when your mama find out what you did eat at somebody else's house.
Like, you ain't going over there no more.
You're not going back.
Right.
That's what mama would have said.
Like, you ain't going over there no more.
I'm going to feed you before you go over there.
That's funny any so any stories
from childhood being at friend's house other than you just like cooking hash browns for
i mean little yes oh man i used to make some fire ass cheesy hash browns growing up
oh the ida or whatever that brand is called they used to sell like cheddar hash browns growing up. Oda Ida or whatever that brand is called, they used to sell cheddar hash browns and shredded
cheddar hash browns. Oh, wow.
I would throw them boys in, put a little
lemon pepper and a little
garlic salt on it, give it a little kick
and then throw in an extra slice of cheese,
whip them boys up, put a little
dash of maple syrup in it and serve
them boys. My mama used to have me make them hash browns.
A little sweet with the savory.
That sounds good. That's real good right there. Oh, yeah. I was used to have you make the hash browns. A little sweet with the savory. That sounds good. Oh, yeah.
That's real good right there.
Oh, yeah.
No, so I was doing that.
But most of the time, you know, parents were cool.
You know where it's really fucked up is family.
Family.
I would rather go over to a friend's house for dinner than family.
Because family will force your ass to eat shit you don't want to eat.
That's true.
Like a friend's parents will be
like okay you know if you want some or you can have some and they won't like look at but family
be like boys you better sit down and eat this food because they you know could discipline you
and shit too so that was the worst i used to hate eating their family's house more than anything
they were making some nasty shit man We be making chicken livers and
pinto beans.
You know, look, I am
saying, like, you know, traditionally
South food.
But if I want pizza, man,
I don't want no damn chicken livers if I'm eight years
old. I want some fucking pizza.
I remember those days.
I don't think there was a day that I didn't want pizza.
Yeah. I just had a really good
pinto bean soup
oh pinto bean that sounds good now
it does sound good
do you crave any of that now
do you crave the pinto beans the chicken livers
do you kind of miss that
nah I don't fuck with chicken livers still
uh
nah I can't
I can't fuck with chicken livers
more power to them though more power to him fair
there's some dishes from my childhood that i used to dread that now i'm like i really love that
actually that's that's the that that has that has gone all the way back around and now as an adult
i'm like no that was actually a really fire dish and mom if you make that i'll be there with bells
on oh yeah literally literally all right let's take

I'm Keri Champion, and this is Season 4 of Naked Sports, where we live at the intersection of sports and culture.
Up first, I explore the
making of a rivalry, Kaitlyn Clark versus Angel Reese. I know I'll go down in history. People
are talking about women's basketball just because of one single game. Every great player needs a
foil. I ain't really near them boys. I just come here to play basketball every single day and
that's what I focus on. From college to the pros, Clark and Reese have changed the way we consume women's sports. Angel Reese is a
joy to watch. She is
unapologetically black. I love
her. What exactly ignited
this fire? Why has it been so good
for the game? And can the fanfare
surrounding these two supernovas be
sustained? This game is only going
to get better because the talent is getting
better. This new season will cover
all things sports and culture. Listen to Naked Sports on the Black Effect Podcast Network, iHeartRadio app,

former Packers star Kabir Bajabiamila caught up in a bizarre situation.
KGB explaining what he believes led to the arrest of his friends at a children's Christmas play.
A family man, former NFL player, devout Christian,
now cut off from his family and connected to a strange arrest.
I am going to share my journey of how I went from Christianity to now a Hebrew Israelite.
I got swept up in Kabir's journey, but this was only the beginning.
In a story about faith and football, the search for meaning away from the gridiron,
and the consequences for everyone involved.
You mix homesteading with guns and church,
and a little bit of the spice of conspiracy theories that we liked.
Voila!
You got straight away.
I felt like I was living in North Korea, but worse, if that's possible.
Listen to Spiraled on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
And we're back.
We made it.
So we've heard that Netflix stock price is going down.
Oh, yeah.
And they are in a panic.
Just a flat panic.
They're freaking.
Everyone's, they're freaking, man.
Fucking freaking out, man.
Which, I don't know.
I always find that a little bit suspect.
Because the people who that actually affects are not the majority of the employees.
It's like the executive team who have the millions of dollars in Netflix stock and suddenly they're scared and pissed and firing everybody, which seems like what is happening in netflix
but they've kind of announced a a new direction that they're taking things yeah they're focusing
on making big quote this is quote quote quote focusing on making bigger movies making better
movies and releasing fewer than it previously did at a gluttonous pace damn sure yeah i i think i think the wording of
that is certainly appropriate considering how much content netflix was just pumping out
and all of a sudden you would just go on netflix and everything that you used to see
as like oh yeah we'll watch this enough except that it was just populated by shows you're like
what even is this what is this this movie this show this thing i've absolutely never heard of
with that little red n in the top corner like ah yes this is a netflix joint also using the phrase gluttonous
pace feels very like self-hating like it feels like somebody who's like i'm such a pig i hate
myself just like looking in the mirror being yeah i don't know just ease up you guys made some good
movies you're you're figuring
shit out like i like the idea of making bigger movies and better movies i love good movies that's
my thing i love them too here's the thing with netflix man i wish netflix would admit
first but netflix is misstepping a lot you know know, they misstepping with on social shit.
They're misstepping with all the people they've let go and all the shows they just like canceled. I just had a show canceled on Netflix, an animated show that I was on, recorded already episodes.
And when they did that boot, I found out my shit is never coming out.
Beautiful. You know, like they mis missed up in a lot doing ads and charging
you know sharing passwords when that's how they got successful i wish netflix would just be real
about what they really want to be yeah netflix started off as the dvd subscription they switched
over and introduced us to the world of streaming and they became the streaming site uh netflix doesn't want
to be a streaming site anymore netflix wants to be a production studio yeah you're right that's
what they want to be they want to be a paramount they want to be a warner brothers they want to be
these type of things where it's not about the streaming it is about the having your name on a movie or tv show a la
warner brothers dreamworks disney all these other places and then you know netflix will be their hub
a la like a disney plus or hbo max warner brothers or you know like it'll be a hub
but they want to be a production company. And if they would just say that.
Like things would make so much more sense.
You know who doesn't get shit for putting out things at a, quote, gluttonous pace?
Warner Brothers, because Warner Brothers is a fucking production company. Like they're supposed to put out multiple movies a
year and multiple tv shows a year and but because netflix is a streaming site and that's how they
are still marketing themselves when they put out all these god-awful movies and or just a
crazy amount of like content yeah we look at it and we do say oh yeah it's gluttonous this is too
much like you know like i miss what netflix used to be. Well, because Netflix decided years ago that we don't want to be this no more. We want to be a production company. We want to get in the award business. We want to win Oscars. We want to win Emmys. We want to win all these things. And we want to have a studio. They're building studios here in L. We see them. All the Netflix studios with the sound stages and shit like that.
They want to be a production company.
They should just fucking say it.
And they should stop bullshitting.
And I think people would give them more leeway as a company if they just said what they actually are trying to be as a business model.
That's my opinion on Netflix.
Yeah.
you know netflix yeah and i just i think there's they probably have a perception issue because people just think of them as like the like the netflix was the one word like kleenex is the one
word for tissues like netflix was the one word for a while for anything like watching anything
on streaming and that's like the public perception but then on the business side they are trying to
yeah they want people paying them for content too not just like having to pay other people for content.
I think it's also just annoying that, you know, in these methods of cost cutting, it always comes down to, or I shouldn't say always, but it often comes down to cutting employees.
to cutting employees. And in this article, it says that they're axing 150 employees, which is,
you know, 2% of its workforce doesn't sound huge, but that's still 150 people that are out of a job because you're spending too much money on whack content. And I don't think that's necessarily
any of those 150 employees fault that like, if your cost cutting measures are just like,
we're going to keep making big shit, but we're just going to get rid of people so that we can
like slim down this process. It does not make your content
necessarily better to have less people working on it. It's like you look at an enormous movie,
there's millions of people working on it, because you want to get a the best and you also don't want
to crunch whoever you have. And so just getting rid of employees to save that money is it feels
short sighted in terms of like creating
better content when you know more hands make light work give you more opportunities it's just like
why why get rid of people as your first measure just as they're saying make a few less movies
that will save you a lot of money especially jack as you've noted here that they spent what was it? A hundred and seventy five million dollars on the Irishman.
It's ridiculous.
That's the one like they're not saying like these are the types of movies we'll never make again except that one.
They're like,
we're not making the Irishman again.
And the fact that they spent one hundred and seventy five million dollars on that is.
And it's not even it's not even the amount.
I mean, the amount is crazy. You know, I'm not saying that it's not even the amount. I mean, the amount is crazy.
The amount is crazy. I'm not saying that it's not, but like,
if you heard
they spent that on the Avengers,
you would be like, okay, that makes sense.
But like,
the Irishman? Exactly.
Boring fucking three-hour
drama?
All that money to make Robertbert de niro look like he
was slightly younger and also descended from like one of his ancestors was one of the characters
from the movie polar express yeah exactly that'll still be to this day one of the funniest fucking
scenes i've ever watched in my life is when Robert De Niro had to beat that dude ass.
And they was like,
all right,
he look younger,
but this nigga still got an 80 year old body.
He can't move.
Clearly dealing with bone density issues.
Quite literally.
Oh my God.
That man.
I mean,
at that moment I was already bored with the movie and even though that
gave me a a hefty laugh i was like i can't i can't enjoy the rest of this movie like it's
pretty fucking bad but yeah truly truly the best thing about the irishman was them wasting all that
money especially martin because martin scorsese that's who did that right him wasting all that money especially Martin Scorsese that's who did that right
him wasting all this
money on this movie
and it doesn't even look good and then
have the nerve to say
like
MCU movies ain't real cinema
motherfucker they could have did that
shit better than you did
they could have at least did that one moment
well because they're
aware that there are actors who are under the age of 70 and they wouldn't they could have just cast
them in the roles i think all those performances especially pesci really good not not here to hate
on it but like to the fact that that cost 175 million christ like i don't know
no nobody was like wow like that that is what i want to see done like that that is the magic
the movie magic that i want to see is like an old person made to look slightly younger like that it
it doesn't do anything i would like to add just really briefly
that part of the value of spectacle is is seeing that spectacle in its total grandeur like you
watch i think you brought up avengers i think it's a perfect point when you have a moment where
there's literally every big actor in hollywood on stage at once doing this awesome charge at each other moment with the main villain.
You look at that and you're like, that is a fucking spectacle that costs a lot of money, but it is showing itself.
Another example is I just watched or I've said this a bunch of times, but the Taylor Swift Reputation Tour.
You can see the video on
Netflix, the the tour video of that show, you know how much money went into that tour. And it shows
it shows in every aspect of this tour. And when you spend a bunch of money, and you're looking
at this thing going, where'd that money go? That's a failure. That a failure a hundred percent when you can't see why something
would cost as much as it does it's just like this it's it's not worth it right yeah well i'll tell
you where all that money went it went to robert de niro's salary because he gotta pay his ex-wife
half and i say you know what black queen get your Get your money, baby. Get your money.
Take that motherfucker for all he worth, Queen.
There you go. Take him.
That's where it all went.
I hear that.
De Niro, he negotiating extra money because he paying alimony now.

underscore Danil, D-A-N-L.
You can find me on Twitch Wednesdays,
Fridays, and Sundays, where
you can hear me talk about video games and get jump-scared by my audience.
It's a great time.
This is a very brief story to go along with this, but there is a streamer, going back to the old Twitch stuff for a second, a streamer at KiaPia.
It's at K-I-A-P-I-A-A underscore.
And they entered into a competition for like a gaming PC.
It was targeting small creators.
And I don't want to give the people who ran the competition any air because they were huge shitters.
And basically when this person, Kia, won the competition, they decided that she was too small of a streamer and didn't want to give her the computer anymore.
And they're like, actually, your following is kind of trash. I'm not giving it to you, which was bullshit.
And then the company Cooler Master came to her defense and said, that's bullshit. We're hooking
you up with a rig. Let's do it. Now, that was a couple months ago. And it's the kind of thing
that, you know, a company like that could do one nice thing, skirt it under the rug, be like,
we got our good press for the day and be over it. But as part of their Pride Month celebration, they are hosting Kia Pia as one of
their official streamers for Cooler Master, continuing the push for this content creator.
So I wanted to shout out Cooler Master. And basically, their tweet is just a happy Pride
2022, everyone, and shouting out their Cooler Master stream with Kia Pia, with Mia Byte, with ADLMAO.
Just like a nice thing we're there actually continuing to support this creator instead of it being like a one-off.
Yeah, you know, we'll just throw you a bone because you were shafted by this other company.
Just I love the continued support as opposed to just being a one-off.
So shout out Cooler Master.
All right. I understood like every thirdoff. So shout out Cooler Master.
All right.
I understood like every third word. Yeah, that's all good. You know, there's
20% of the audience that's like, that's so sweet.
40% that's Googling, what is
Cooler Master?
Okay, what do they do? All right.
You can find me on Twitter
at Jack underscore O'Brien.
I enjoyed Jamie Loftus
tweet. Jamie Loftus helped.
Tweeted, the Haim sisters were raised by Gru,
in my opinion.
Beautiful.

Footnotes. Footnotes. Where we link off the information that we talked about in today's episode,
as well as the song that we think you might enjoy.
And with Miles out,
we like to ask super producer Justin to step on in and let us know,
what is the song that you think we might enjoy?
Hey, well,
I would love to suggest a song
by this amazing Canadian producer named Kay Trinata.
I think Miles has maybe produced
or has suggested a few songs from him before.
He produced a couple for him too, yeah.
Oh yeah, yeah.
Legendary American jazz drummer,
Kareem Riggins and River Hiver hook up
with Kay Trinata on this one.
This is a standout track off of uh k trinada's
album 99.9 for me anyway and uh you know sometimes i like to unplug it's been a rough
news cycle for the last couple weeks and this is a song with no lyrics on it you can just
sit there and vibe and this does a lot of heavy lifting for you if you are the kind of person who
can just close their eyes and visualize a scene or whatever.
Just some nice music.
So check this out.
This song is called Bus Ride by Kay Trinata, Kareem Riggins, and Riff Retiber.
And you can find this track in the footnotes.
Footnotes.
Great choice.
Warriors in six, baby.
Let's hope so.
All right.
