Starting point is 00:00:30 But your phone is at 100%. I have another charger. My phone is not on 100%. But your case adds another 100. Yeah, like he gave me a hundred. I don't give a fuck. My phone was charging. So he had 124% right now.
Starting point is 00:00:42 And I don't feel comfortable. I'm at 40%. But that should have no relevance because I was charging. And Joe is always either in his car or in his house.

Starting point is 00:04:21 Y'all don't care about what beef is? No. No. I don't care about none of that shit. You think Russ thinks that Joe Budden is sweet? Yeah. He's been very clear about that. But you know what's bad about this?
Starting point is 00:04:39 He's been very clear. But the worst part about this? No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no. That's big rapping rapping That's not you No that's big laughing My nigga Okay
Starting point is 00:04:49 Yeah That's not you laughing at Russ No Rory But here's the bad part About the whole thing You can't get into a Back and forth with Russ though He has though
Starting point is 00:04:59 I mean verbally Just little tweets and shit That's cool I'm talking about You can't get in a booth And mention his name That's the bad thing About this
Starting point is 00:05:06 Because then you're super corny If you do that Yeah How did these new kids Maneuver this move? See Because they know It's a win-win for them
Starting point is 00:05:15 It's a win-win You're not going to say Somehow my chess move Of retiring Has backfired And put me into a corner Yeah Well according to Russ The people retired Yeah You had no choice But to retire That's what happened? Retiring has backfired and put me into a corner. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:27 Well, according to Russ, the people retired you. Yeah. You had no choice but to retire. Oh, wait, that's what happened? Yeah. Voting Russ. He said Joe Budden keep walking around saying he retired like he didn't have a choice. You only sold 5K in a week. When did Joe Budden ever only sell 5,000?
Starting point is 00:05:38 I'm just telling you what Russ said, bro. I don't care about facts right now. Jokes is better than facts. We know that. Fuck the facts. But I'm asking you something. What are you asking? When has Joe Budden ever only sold 5,000 copies in a week ever?
Starting point is 00:05:51 Bro, I don't care about that. But you just said it. I just love the fact that you're in a position where you actually can't rap now. You can't rap against Russ. But I wasn't rapping. Exactly. So you just got to take them shots. That's it.
Starting point is 00:06:04 I'll fuck Russ up. Nah, but you can't do that either. Because then I'm corny too. Yeah. You don't get a strike to take them shots. That's it. I'll fuck Russ up. Nah, but you can't do that either. Because then I'm corny too. Yeah. You don't get a stripe for hitting anybody with that type of hair. Russ, you're going to hit Russ.
Starting point is 00:06:11 If you was real, then you would hit him then. That's actually a better fight. See? Rory, you might have to snuff it. No, I don't get a stripe for hitting. You might have to pop on Russ. You don't determine
Starting point is 00:06:20 how the stripes come. Yeah, you might have to pop on him. No bullshit. Next time you see Russ, pop on him. Rory's not the deliverer how the stripes come. Yeah, you might have to pop on them. No bullshit. Next time you see Russ, pop on them. Roy's not the deliverer of the stripes. Oh, I got a plan. I got a plan. Book Russ for Henny Palooza.
Starting point is 00:06:33 That could work. And then let's book Russ at Henny Palooza. Well, let's edit this part out, because now you put my whole game down. You know what I'm saying? That's how you do that. I'm going to have Bridget knock out Russ. They have the same hair. They do have the same hair.
Starting point is 00:06:48 Just come in. You look great. Kind of you to join us five hours late. The amazing Bridget Kelly, everyone. The amazing Bridget Kelly. The amazing Bridget Kelly. A little disappointed, Bridget, because I really did want pretzels today. Honestly, I know you thought I was joking.
Starting point is 00:07:13 I love pretzels. I was afraid to have pretzels on set because of your performance last night. Hello, Bridget. Hello, everyone. Pretzels, yeah, well, today we'll just design, everyone. Pretzels. Yeah, well, today we'll just designate today as Pretzel Day. Can today be Pretzel Day? Underrated snack, by the way. Underrated snack. I was a little mad that you threw those pretzels because I happen to like pretzels.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Pretzels. I thought it was a waste of pretzels. It was a really good waste of pretzels. No, we're going to get to Bridget and her pretzels. Back to you, Maul. What's up, man? You, Parks, and Rory are not really telling me that Russ thinks this. He's been very vocal about you being pussy.
Starting point is 00:07:51 There's nothing you can do about it. So could I diss him and not say his name? No. Because we know what you're doing. Are we dissing R&B singers now? I think he's a rapper. Russ is like... I've heard one song from him that I liked.
Starting point is 00:08:04 Yeah. The only song I've ever's a rapper. I've heard one song from him that I liked. The only song I've heard I like. It's just a case of Joe's now in a position where he can't respond because if he responds to Russ, he's corny. Is that real though? He can't respond to Russ. Thank you, Bridget. He can't respond to him because it's Russ. Russ just started coming outside. Let's just take him out while it's early then,
Starting point is 00:08:25 if that's what's going on. No, man. You don't get no... No, man. You don't get stripes for that. Now, Chance... Now, you're the deliverer of stripes. Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:32 No, I'm not delivering stripes. I'm just saying I know you can't get stripes for that. But how do you know? Because Russ is not... That's like... You can't spar with Russ. Anyone of my friends would have called me a clown if I hit Russ. Yeah, you can't spar with Russ.
Starting point is 00:08:43 They would look at me nuts. Russ is selling out venues. I don't care what he's doing. Russ is making a name for himself. For real. Off your back. No. Okay, now listen.
Starting point is 00:08:54 This is why you can't. Russ is from Secaucus. He's from a train station. What? You can't punch him. They're going to kill you in Secaucus. He's from the train station. So can he throw pretzels? Can Joe throw pretzels? Joe. No. Joe can't punch him. They're going to kill you. Wait, he's from Jersey. But what if he's just from the train station? So can he throw pretzels?
Starting point is 00:09:06 Can Joe throw pretzels? Joe. No, Joe can't. I feel like Joe could throw pretzels. Russ shouldn't even be able to diss me from being from New Jersey, honestly. He shouldn't, but he feels like you shitted on him.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Fuck him. See? Exactly. He doesn't fuck what he feels like. I'm just saying, all of this is cool, but you cannot put his name in it. Can I just chance? 100%. Chance won't reply though.
Starting point is 00:09:27 Wait, why? 100% he could dischance. He definitely won't reply. It'll be Drake all over again. It'll be much worse than that. But Chance is the fucking biblical god. You don't have the church on your back. But Chance is at least a better rapper. He's my best friend.
Starting point is 00:09:42 Respecting more is a rap co-work. The commission Uncle Paul. But chances are he's a better rapper. How you diss Michelle Obama's friend? Respecting more as a rapper. How do you do this? It's true. That's all right. The commission. Uncle Paul. You won't keep playing. The commission never came out, by the way. He's a real De Janeiro.
Starting point is 00:09:52 Well, you can't rap. Charlie Fulton. You can't rap in this situation. You can't, bro. All right. You know I'm usually the first one to say go. No, you're not. You're not the first one to say go.
Starting point is 00:10:02 When have I never said, yo, nah, go at that nigga? You never said go at that nigga when it was never said hold on when it was somebody that was deemed to be a real good rapper everybody i've ever went at that was deemed to be a good rapper you said don't go at no no no when you was ready to go at them no because you'd be ready to go off of like just small shit because that's rap no no no but you'd be ready to go on small shit, though. I'm talking about when it's like, alright, my nigga. Russ, you lucky that this ain't last year, my nigga. Let me tell you that. I would have a field
Starting point is 00:10:32 day with you. Woo! You doing all this talk. That's it. I'm retired, nigga. That's all I do. He said, all you do is gossip. I talk for a living. You proving him right right now. Yes, nigga. Yes, I talk for a living. Now, I him right right now. Yes, nigga. Yes, I talk for a living. Now, I'm not dissing Chance, by the way.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Bridget, how are you? I'm wonderful. How are you guys? Thanks for having me back, first of all. The fans wanted you back. Thanks for being back. Well, damn. All right, Rory.
Starting point is 00:10:58 So y'all didn't want me here. We just count on the fans. That's what's up. Well, we have to commit to them. Yes, it was good. Well, thanks, fans. Thanks, fans. You showed your ass last night. I didn't even know.
Starting point is 00:11:07 I invited you before I saw that episode. Then I saw that episode. I was like, whoa, what a premonition. Glad to have you now. I didn't see it. It's fine. First episode I watched. We're going to get there.
Starting point is 00:11:22 We're going to save it. I want to start with the more pertinent serious matter. Then we're going to get there. We're going to save it. I want to start with the more pertinent serious matter. So then we can get to the jokes. Well, I mean, I didn't want to start with Bow Wow. Alright, so y'all tell me when y'all want to address
Starting point is 00:11:37 Colin's lawsuit against the NFL about collusion. We can address it now. Okay okay let's address it now how does everyone feel about the potential damage that this could cause apparently there's some language in the collective bargaining agreement that says if he were able to prove this then that the entire cba would be torn up and dismantled and you'd be able to start from scratch when i hear that i'm certain that a lot of players would love for that to happen which tells me that behind enemy lines he's got a few friends it tells me that if he is making these
Starting point is 00:12:16 this this case if he's fighting the case then i would assume he's bright enough to know that you should be able to you got to prove it yeah i'm sure he must have some. He has to have something that he feels like could get it done, no? I mean, well, just look around the league. He's definitely more talented than a lot of these quarterbacks. That's not enough. That is enough. Yeah, but when you're going against 32 billionaires. How is it not enough?
Starting point is 00:12:39 I don't know if your stats matter. Money matters. Because it's their choice. That doesn't prove collusion you're not getting a job because you're better than who they have that doesn't prove collusion right somebody i agree somebody somebody behind the scenes but there is no valid reason for him to have lost his job that doesn't prove collusion right okay and that's why collusion is a very difficult thing to prove because you have to have some type of conversation between
Starting point is 00:13:05 two or more people where they're conspiring. He must have some emails or texts or something. He's got a paper trail of some sort to be able to claim that. Because in doing this, he's now said I'm no longer going to play in the NFL. There's no way he will ever play in the NFL after filing this. Taking this on that way
Starting point is 00:13:21 he won't know. Clearly Cap is an intelligent guy. We've all seen that. So he has to have something in his back pocket that he thinks is gonna validate what he's doing because he's no longer gonna play in the nfl there goes that job well once you sued the company you're trying to work for steven a keeps saying that the ravens were were considering hiring him until his girlfriend, Nessa, went on a tweet rant bashing the organization, and then they pulled back. So he's said that quite a few times. I don't see how that's relevant to anything. I think that players' wives or girlfriends or whoever they date
Starting point is 00:14:01 can do whatever the fuck they want. I don't think that that's relevant in a case of you trying to prove whether you're blackballed or not, what my girlfriend did. I would be insulted if that's what you brought. Especially when it's not even your wife. That's happened before. Miko Grimes got Brett in a lot of hot water in Miami. Miko's so real.
Starting point is 00:14:19 I love it. She's great. Yeah. And Brett is a great quarterback. I love any time the wives hold it down. Yeah. Oh, so what do y'all think about did y'all hear the story that leaked? This is off on a tangent, but
Starting point is 00:14:31 was that Roger Goodell's wife? Who had a fake Twitter account? No. This was her real thoughts on... Damn it. Savon!
Starting point is 00:14:48 You got a notepad ready and everything. You about to write this down. Savon, Roger Goodell's wife tweeted something about some black matter. I think it was some Kaepernick-related issue. And then the talk on Mike and Mike about that was, well, is that how Roger Goodell feels it's safe to assume when your wife tweets something that that's how you feel
Starting point is 00:15:09 they're a piece of shit but anyway back to Steph Curry's wife I'm pardoned for forgetting her name Aisha Curry Aisha the chef she went on a little Twitter rant during the finals that didn't go over too well that I think Steph had to apologize for.
Starting point is 00:15:26 Yeah, they was waiting to get rid of her though. Yeah, they were. She was way too clean cut, cooking well, making cantaloupes fried and shit. Fried cantaloupes.
Starting point is 00:15:34 Unfrying things. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They couldn't wait for her to ruin herself. Yeah, cooked. They couldn't wait to cook her. How about that?
Starting point is 00:15:43 Oh, man. Sorry, I wait to cook her. How about that? Oh, man. Sorry, I needed one. I just needed one. I just needed one little moment. They couldn't wait to cook her. The jingle brought it together, really. That was cute. That was a good one, Bridget.
Starting point is 00:15:56 I would never take you for the girl that throws pretzels. I would never take you for the girl that throws pretzels. You don't want lemonade, Papa. No. Why? I don't know, man. He's above No. Why? I don't know, man. He's above it. Yeah, I don't think that's for me.
Starting point is 00:16:09 It's all right, Mom. You can say you're for me. I don't think that's for me. That's not for me. What's for you, bro? I hate when niggas say that. What's for you? See, that's why I hate when niggas say that.
Starting point is 00:16:17 I don't watch. If I do watch TV, I'm either watching sports or a documentary. Okay. I don't do the whole reality TV shit. It's very serious. You take television very seriously. No, it's not. I don't really fuck with TV. Sports or like a documentary. Okay. Like I don't do the whole reality TV shit. It's very serious. You take television very seriously. No, it's not. I don't really fuck with TV.
Starting point is 00:16:28 Sports or documentary TV. But it's been on reality TV. Or Love and Hip Hop. The same show. That's what happens when you, you know, a close friend of yours is doing reality. You somehow get roped into it. Bridget knows about that, see? I do, in fact.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Don't judge. Oh, no, I'm not judging. I just said it's not. It's not for you. Yeah, I don't watch it. But you were on it. I'm not mad at it. I just want I'm not judging I just said it's not It's not for you Yeah I don't watch it But you were on it I'm not mad at it I just want to be clear
Starting point is 00:16:48 I just want to I feel like I feel like it's for It's more for women Oh Reality TV Yeah tell my ex that Hold up dog
Starting point is 00:16:55 Not being No no watching it I feel like Because it's like You know it's a lot of things That happen It's very catty It's very catty
Starting point is 00:17:04 Yeah like I feel like that's for the women, man. We throw pretzels. When I'm going to be like, oh, no, he didn't. When I'm watching that shit, I can't. Come on, man. What if you were surprised that he didn't? No, but I can't. All right, so to wrap up our collusion
Starting point is 00:17:18 talk. I don't know how we got from collusion there. When he saw the collusion, he said, oh no, he didn't, to Cap. Because he was watching sports. But I do think Kaepernick will be back in the NFL, though. I don't. After you sue somebody.
Starting point is 00:17:31 I don't think they let you back in the corporation. It depends on what he's got, though. If he's got some legitimate ammo against them, then he's never coming back. I think that's how they're going to bow out. A team is going to sign him. You might be right about that. I don't think they want him to blow the whistle on a lot of shit that's how they're going to bow out. A team is going to sign him. You might be right about that. I don't think they want him to blow the whistle on a lot of shit that's going on. That might be the way that they beat that whole CBA shit.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Exactly. Because players are getting dicked, so they don't want that shit to come up. He really stood his ground, though. I don't think he's going to take the bait. I think part of the thing is he wants to be back in the NFL. I think that's part of it. If he wins the case, they have to sign him. I don't know. I don't know. I don't think I would want to be a part in the NFL. I think that's part of it. If he wins the case, they have to sign him. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:05 I don't know. I don't know. I don't think I would want to be a part of the NFL again, but I'm not mad at him wanting to be a part of it again. Is he a hero? Absolutely. Absolutely. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:16 We don't call it that because we're still in the moment, but 20 years from now. Is he your hero? Is he my hero? I wouldn't say my hero. Do you have a hero? I have heroes. Who are your heroes, nigga? I have a few heroes.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I'm asking you, who's your heroes? Base? Like, local people. People in the community is my heroes. Niggas that sold drugs. Base. Ghost. Alpo.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Neighborhood watch. Yeah. Real me. I'm all hero. I'm all hero. Real shit. Nah, not neighborhood watch. She don't neighborhood watch. wait look at my old hero my old hero real shit nah not neighborhood watch she don't neighborhood watch did somebody say Alpo
Starting point is 00:18:50 no way that ain't never my hero Rich Porter I'm asking you the name alright forget it no you're naming heroes I'm just guessing
Starting point is 00:18:59 cause you won't tell me no I told you that's it yeah that's it alright I only got two heroes okay my mom i was gonna say my parents yeah i was gonna go with the cliche answer yeah my mom is my hero i
Starting point is 00:19:14 also wait wow wow rory is sounding trash right now let's just say my mom i just want to tell y'all that while the yankees were playing last night, Rory was tweeting, here comes the judge. I never said that. He was that guy. Yes, 100%. He tweeted that? It's there. You can find it.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Okay, pull it up. Find me when I said, here comes the judge. The verdict is coming. That's what I said. Any man that says, here comes the judge, and Aaron Judge comes to the plate is definitely, definitely a funny guy. Were you watching the Yankee game? Of course.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Why would I not watch the baseball team I like while they're in the playoffs? I don't feel like you're a Yankee fan though. I feel like you're a Mets fan. He's a hipster fan. Why do you feel like a Yankees fan? No one liked the Mets when I was growing up. He was a Yankee fan. You have to grow up. You're from Queens.
Starting point is 00:20:05 I feel like most people I was growing up. He was a Yankee fan. You have to grow up. You're from Queens. I feel like from Queens. I feel like most people I know are from Queens. Everyone liked the Yankees. My parents both loved the Yankees. I grew up in a Yankee household. People say that about me and the Patriots.
Starting point is 00:20:12 Rory is such a hipster. That's crazy. The Yankees in the playoffs and now his parents loved him. He had all the gear. He had all the merchandise. The scarf with the matching hat and the mittens.
Starting point is 00:20:23 He is so trash. I might have been a Yankee player one Halloween. I still think the Yankees are mittens. Oh, he is so trash. I might have been a Yankee player one Halloween. But I still think the Yankees are going to win this series, though, by the way. So they're going to win? Three straight? Yeah. Two series?
Starting point is 00:20:32 Wait, first of all, ain't you a huge Yankee fan? What are you talking about? Why weren't you watching the game is the real question. I won't do that. You won't watch the game? No way. Why? No way.
Starting point is 00:20:42 That's way too much stress for me. Like, I'm really into the games. I'm not watching my team in game three down 2-0. No way. It would have been the game. I'm not even a baseball fan, but playoff baseball is great. Yeah. It was a great game.
Starting point is 00:20:58 And the Yankees haven't been that good in the past few years. It's good to see them back. I think they're going to win it all, man. Honestly. They got a shot. I hate niggas from the Bronx. I'm just saying that they're going to do what they did last round. It's just that they got to go down before they could really come together and win.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Basketball is your thing. All sports is my thing, nigga. And also, I'm a suffering Knicks fan. It's nice to see a New York team do well. I don't know how y'all still Knicks fans, honestly. How could you not be a Knicks fan if you're from New York? I just don't understand. There was an era during our lifetime where they were great.
Starting point is 00:21:30 We're not tweeting off the podcast with the Knicks. I mean, basketball season is back. Why not? I was trying to get to the bottom of the collusion thing. Okay, well, you have information on the NFL that we don't have? Right, I was like, somebody get you off, Joe. How can we get to the bottom of the collusion thing? Right. All right, so forget it then. Come on, NFL that we don't have? Right, I was like, somebody get somebody to chew on stuff. How can we get to the bottom of the collusion thing? Right.
Starting point is 00:21:45 All right, so forget it then. Come on then, Drew. You got something? This is getting to the bottom of it? No, this is my get to the bottom of opening night in the NBA music. I'm really excited about this. You such a hipster for watching the NBA on the night that it opens? I think everyone's watching the game.
Starting point is 00:22:00 He's a hipster for playing. Everyone was watching the Yankee game. Rory is dying for other people to be hipsters. Nothing hipster about watching the NBA on opening night. But watching playoff baseball is hipster. Yes. I don't understand your brain at all. That doesn't make any sense at all.
Starting point is 00:22:16 Rory has stripes on his mock neck. You have checkers on your vans with no socks. In Joe's defense, you're still a bigger hipster than him. 100%. But Joe is closing the gap. He's closing the gap. He's right there. I don't even think it's a race anymore.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Wait, time out, time out, time out, time out. Exposed ankles is definitely closing the gap, Joe. I got to agree. Joe lives in LA already mentally. I'm trying to tell you. No, I don't. The beanie when it's still warm out. Joe wore beanie on South Beach.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Wow. Well, 90 degrees outside. I'm just letting y'all know that. That's LA. I haven't taken this beanie off since I've purchased it. That's hipster shit. But what I'm saying is this. Or newborn baby shit.
Starting point is 00:22:54 I wear these little LA bullshit checkered. For comfort. Laceless vans, right? That's always his escape. I'm also the same nigga that wears Uggs slippers outside and to supermarkets and shit. That's hipster shit. That's hipster shit.
Starting point is 00:23:09 All right, I'm done with y'all. We killed Sean Wayans when he had on Uggs going to the store in LA. Uggs is hipster shit. There's no way getting out of that. We killed Sean Wayans for that.
Starting point is 00:23:15 I got to kill you for that. Uggs is hipster shit. Oh, y'all just getting jokes off. No, we're telling the truth. It's an invention. That's hipster shit. You work at Complex. You're a fucking hipster.
Starting point is 00:23:23 It's trash at Complex. But you work there. And you still stay there, which is mad hipster. I work at Complex. You're a fucking hipster. It's trash at Complex. But you work there. And you still stay there, which is mad hipster. Do you wear your Ugg slippers to Complex is the question. No. Yes, you would.
Starting point is 00:23:31 But you would. That's hipster shit. I'm sorry. I got to roll with the plot on that. Joe's a hipster. That's hipster shit, Joe. Rory's definitely a hipster, though. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:23:40 But Joe's a hipster, man. But you know what? There's levels, though. There's levels. There's levels to hipster. They're both on a pretty high level of hipster. And I'm not going to lie. I think Kanye kind of stole Joe's swag with the bum couture shit.
Starting point is 00:23:50 You was the first nigga doing bum couture. Bum couture? That's a thing? Explain that, please. Look at Kanye's line now. Look at his clothing. No, Kanye's line looks like Jesus of Nazareth. I'm not doing that.
Starting point is 00:23:59 No. It's like swaddling clothes. Jesus kind of looked like a bum in Nazareth. It's like swaddling clothes. Jesus was a little bummy. Jesus looked like homie. Jesus definitely looked like homie on 59 show. It's like swaddling clothes. Jesus was a little bummy. Jesus definitely looked like homie on 59th and Columbus Circus. His toes were all out. Jesus was trash.
Starting point is 00:24:11 Yeah. Jesus had bum swag. He had bum swag. Oh, no, no. Jesus and Joe had the same swag. This is a step too far. Feet out. You know, holes in the garments.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Ankles out. Yeah. We all about to die. Beer. I've been quiet. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I'm not co-s been quiet you know what I'm saying I'm not cosigning that
Starting point is 00:24:26 about Jesus I'm just saying it's bump couture I don't know Joe knew what he was doing back then he just didn't know how to you know what I mean
Starting point is 00:24:32 because Joe would just like go too far with it oh but he knew that this style was coming in I mean the Ugg slippers in the grocery store he knew comfort was coming
Starting point is 00:24:40 I don't know you're giving him a lot of credit no he knew it was coming he knew it was coming I didn't know you were ahead of the curve. I'm like, Joe, you was ahead of the curve like that? No.
Starting point is 00:24:47 No, not at all. No. Not mad behind the curve. I still can't believe it's in. I'd be looking at it and it's like, wow. Astonishing. All right, so more shit to get to the bottom of, I guess, then. Oh, opening night NBA.

Starting point is 00:30:24 and immature, as soon as I stopped texting Rory, I then tried to think of all the questions he could be answering. And you would have to answer them, right? Because what are the limits? If you're getting paid, what won't you
Starting point is 00:30:40 answer? This is above my money. I can't do this. I'm asking. It was about charities for McDonald's. It was something I would have done whether I was employed or not. It was for a friend. It just happened to be paid. It was for Jamal.

Are they hiring? I didn't realize that was a magic mic type of thing. And I didn't realize that that was really happening, that women are really into that.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Wait, wait, wait. Plug me with your friend. That women are into male dancers. Women are into what? Private dancers. I think that's more of a homosexual thing. No, it's not. It's apparently not.

Starting point is 00:40:53 Make sense of it for me. I can't. I just said I don't. Going to visit your homie in the hospital, great. But then taking a picture and posting it and it's kind of like. It's like it's a photo. Making your publicist tell the world
Starting point is 00:41:07 that you stayed the night and you're still there yes wait wait is that what he said yeah the second report was Drake has not left the hospital he stayed the night
Starting point is 00:41:14 I don't believe that now that I'm not rolling with I think that's just jokes like I'm not rolling with no it was a real story from where from the hospital nigga
Starting point is 00:41:22 I'm not rolling with the hospital put out a release I don't think Drake spent the night in the hospital, nigga. I'm not rolling with that. The hospital put out a release. I don't think Drake spent the night in the hospital. That's what the street said, bro. Whoa. Twitter said it. That's true. That would be the shocking line.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Not for an ankle surgery, no. Now, if Odell got clapped eight times, God forbid, coming from the club and some shit like that happened, then absolutely. But an ankle surgery as an athlete? Dog, that's bare minimum. Okay won't be right back uh the new york post do you consider that i mean it's not really valid but i did like the post no sorry yeah it wasn't just like somebody on the timeline i'm still rolling it though why are you playing this background music?
Starting point is 00:42:07 Maybe it was the best thing. Oh, they'll hold me down. You're about to be silly. That's all. I didn't want nothing. Who do you think was pressing the nurse button? What? Wait, was Drake the nurse?
Starting point is 00:42:21 Oh, my God. Good. I can't. It was Drake the nurse. What's wrong with y'all, man? Oh my God. We just trying to get to the bottom of things.
Starting point is 00:42:29 I guess today, huh? Wait, Drake was the nurse and then he left and went to the Kentucky game. This is a wild life. And wore a Kentucky dad t-shirt. None of them are his kids. Yo,
Starting point is 00:42:43 listen. Yeah. Come on, man.. Yo, listen. Yeah. Come on, man. I can't. Come on, man. That's my nigga, but it's- End it. I can't.
Starting point is 00:42:51 I don't know what to say, man. What you want me to say? Oh, man. It's definitely a little crazy. Definitely. There's some crazy shit going on. I hate more. I swear to God.
Starting point is 00:43:00 Why do you hate me? Why do you hate me? You keep calling on him to give the expert analysis, and he's not giving you the expert I'm giving you my analysis. It's crazy. He will never tell the truth ever. I'm telling you. What is the truth?
Starting point is 00:43:13 He spent the night at the hospital? I don't know if that's true. I asked you who you think was calling the nurse. I said I would hope the patient was calling the nurse. I would hope the patient was calling the nurse. Yeah, but then you double back with, nah, that's crazy. I don't think Drake spent the night. I don't. I nah, that's crazy. I don't think Drake spent the night. I don't. I still don't believe that. I don't think he spent
Starting point is 00:43:27 the night in the hospital. I think Drake has way too much shit going on. Do you think he curled up in the chair? He waited until the poor girl went in the bathroom and then went in her purse and stole her phone. On a just blaze beat. One Lord knows. So why wouldn't he spend the night in the fucking hospital bed? Yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:43:43 That's different though. That's different. That's different. You stealing a girl's phone is because you think she's taking... No! I'm not about to rationalize stealing a girl's phone
Starting point is 00:43:51 out of her pocketbook when you go to the bathroom. Maybe $20 or something, but not the phone. You might think she's doing some sneaky shit. Oh, dear. She could be setting him up.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Yeah. I could definitely... Bitch is not setting me up. I'm not doing this crazy now. I could definitely see taking $20 out the purse, but not the phone. Not the phone. Fuck the $20.
Starting point is 00:44:07 You want to know if she's trying to line you up, nigga? Who you been texting since you've been here? You taking any photos? I need money for cigarettes. Drake don't need money for cigarettes, bro. This is craziness. Some of the things that you rationalize in the name of your friendship with people is a little off to me. No, I'm just saying I understand you going into a girl's place and going through her phone before spending the night at a hospital because your homie is having ankle surgery.
Starting point is 00:44:30 All right, I don't care about that now. If a girl goes to your house and says, pardon me. I hope a girl never says that. We have a girl here. She can do it. No, that's not fun. Nope. What do girls call you?
Starting point is 00:44:43 What are you telling me your telling me? My name is... You wanted them niggas to give them Titus. Titus? Titus? Titus is a sick fucking name. That's a sick fucking name. How would you know? Because I just know...
Starting point is 00:44:57 You ever have some friends where you never know their alias until a girl is around? I hate that shit. I don't know. Their alias? What did she just call you? Who are you? Y'all got aliases now? Like, Titus who? I don't have an alias. Joe, what's your alias until a girl is around? Yeah. What did she just call you? Y'all got aliases now? Like Titus, ooh. Joe, what's your alias?
Starting point is 00:45:10 Bridget Kelly. Nothing. I do not have an alias. Bitch. I do not have an alias. To women? You did before. Derek? Nah, that's my alias to everybody
Starting point is 00:45:25 okay so Derek but I was like silly it was Derek Jeter come on you're such a hipster isn't he a Yankee player no you're not
Starting point is 00:45:33 you're not Derek Jeter he wasn't a Yankee player I'm sorry you're not Derek Jeter everyone you're like the evil Derek Jeter I heard him the evil Derek Jeter
Starting point is 00:45:42 Bridget the evil Derek Jeter you're a beater. So what were we talking about? I don't remember now. The collusion of Drake being in the hospital. All right, but you're not going to give us any information on this. I don't have any information, Joe.
Starting point is 00:45:53 All right, where's my phone? Because I hate when you do this. All right, so let's just talk about something else. Fine. He mad. He mad. I don't have information about the hospital visit. I mean, Maul wasn't at the hospital, so that's not fair.
Starting point is 00:46:03 Maul was definitely at the hospital. He was right here. 100% Maul was at the hospital, so that's not fair. Maul was definitely at the hospital. He was right here. 100% Maul was at the hospital. In spirit, at least. Let's see. In spirit, yeah. Definitely FaceTimed you. What's up, big bro?
Starting point is 00:46:16 How you doing in there? De'Aaron Fox, point guard, rookie point guard of the Sacramento Kings, has a message for all Californians. In-N-Out Burger is terrible. I stand behind that gentleman. That's what he said. In-N-Out Burger is trash. It's overrated. I've never had In-N-Out Burger.
Starting point is 00:46:37 It's not trash. Their fries are kind of good. I fuck with their fries. In-N-Out Burgers are not trash. They're overrated, but they're not trash. I won't go that far. I've never had an In-N-Out burgers are not trash. They're overrated, but they're not trash. I won't go that far. I've never had an In-N-Out burger. Save yourself the time.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Rory is just anti all things LA. What do you think about a Shake Shack? Shake Shack or In-N-Out? Shake Shack, for sure. In-N-Out is just like a bodega burger. It's nothing special. In-N-Out is kind of trash. There's nothing good about it.
Starting point is 00:47:01 LA people gas it. I never had that again. No, I'm not gassing it, but I'm just, I mean. Are you considered L.A. people? I think Fat Burger might be better than that. I live in L.A., and Rory has already determined that there is a distinction between L.A. Bridget and New York Bridget. Then what's the burger in L.A. I should get if it's not in L.A.? Umami?
Starting point is 00:47:17 I don't know what that is. That is a good burger. Umami is a good burger. Avocado. Umami is a good burger. Wait, wait, wait. Hold up, y'all. Let Bridget and fucking Maul
Starting point is 00:47:25 bond over their secret burger spots in LA. Like In-N-Out. All right, cool. So we'll let you and Rory have fucking bond over your Urban Outfitters hipster shit.
Starting point is 00:47:35 Do what you want to do. There's a great one on Florida. Bridget, clap back. Clap back, Bridget. What you mean? Hey, where should I get a burger?
Starting point is 00:47:41 Come on, yo. Come on. And first of all, where can I get a frock? I need a men's fro frock a frock joe definitely has a frock by the way 100 where can i get pants with a lot of zella zippers and pockets joe joe has those two i don't know what a frock is oh okay now you don't know what a frock is fuck out of here joe don't do that first of all come on derek you know what a frock is jo Joe and I thrift. We don't go to Urban Outfitters. We thrift. I don't know what a frock is. What the frock are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:48:06 You a frock. What the frock are you talking about, Joe? Are you guys done with your Kumani burgers? Yeah. Y'all done with your yoga, man? We cool? Yeah. Y'all do yoga.
Starting point is 00:48:17 Yeah, y'all do yoga. They just wear shirt dresses and stuff. With that being said, I stand behind that gentleman's point of view. I think In-N-Out is trash. I think everything in LA for food is trash. You can only eat tacos for three days and then you eat something else. I don't even care. I'm just trying to think of retaliation jokes towards the wall.
Starting point is 00:48:37 I don't even care whatever we're talking about. Towards the frog. The Black Panther movie preview has been released has anyone seen it no I have not I don't see how people listen to our podcast
Starting point is 00:48:50 no for real I don't know why we don't watch hip hop we don't watch previews why we listen to this podcast no the trailer's dope I think it's gonna be a dope movie
Starting point is 00:48:59 so you did see it yeah hell yeah you gotta you gotta watch the trailer for Black Panther it's our trailer correspondent yeah right that trailer was fire Maul is way more valuable Hell yeah. You gotta watch the trailer for Black Panther. It's our trailer correspondent. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:05 Right. That trailer was fire. Maul is way more valuable to the podcast than I be thinking. He's the correspondent for everything. He's the expert. I'm not the senior analyst. You are fucking a Maul to shot. Senior expert analyst. Listen, so Ice, I was arguing with Ice for some, I was bored.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Ice thinks that the Black Panther movie, him and a few other people, some of them were related to me, think that the Black Panther movie is going to break all the movie records. I agree. I agree. What?
Starting point is 00:49:38 I disagree. I'm going to disagree firmly. I agree. I'm so glad. It's weird to see the color in this room on who's agreeing and who's disagreeing. I agree. I'm so glad. It's weird to see the color in this room on who's agreeing and who's disagreeing. I agree.
Starting point is 00:49:47 Nah. I'm so glad that there is someone here that disagrees. Do you agree or disagree? I disagree. Who's in it?
Starting point is 00:49:56 So there's two people here. Do you agree or disagree? No, no, no. I need more information. I disagree. I don't agree with you. Oh, I thought you agreed. You don't think it's going to break
Starting point is 00:50:03 all the box office? Hell no. I need more information. Who is the, I thought you agreed. You don't think it's going to break all the box office? Hell no. I need more. Who is the Black Panther? Some nigga. Chadwick Boseman. You know what, though? I have an issue.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Oh, here comes cultured, rigid Chadwick Boseman. No, but you know why I know his name? You know why I know his name, though? And it makes me mad because he stars in every single iconic Black biopic that's out. He's been Jackie Robinson. He's been Thurgood Marshall. He's James Brown. He's playing everybody.
Starting point is 00:50:28 And he's the Black Panther. I think this is going to be his movie, though. I need Hollywood to just acknowledge it. When you look at me, bro, turn your whole body around. I need James Brown to not be Black Panther and Jackie Robinson. I need Hollywood to stop. I felt that way, too. He's not the only. I need Hollywood to stop. I felt that way too. He's not the only black actor.
Starting point is 00:50:47 Let's stop. He can't play no other. So you think this is the role that his glow up is like? No, I think that this is the role where it's going to be like, okay, we see him. Because when you see him as James Brown, you're not really looking at, I mean, you're looking at his acting, but you're more so interested in the story of James Brown. It's not more so who's playing him. It's like, you just want to see how the story but like this is like so you're a new movie story no i'm just saying like this is a movie where it's like this is his
Starting point is 00:51:12 it's it's like the first of it you know i mean like this is the black panther marvel like so you really like this kid no i think he's a good actor yeah no he's a good actor i think he's a very good actor i don't think this is gonna be to be his breakout moment. I don't know. Why do you think it'll outsell all movies ever? What is the timing? The timing of the period we're in in the country. I think Trump being elected proves that that will not happen. Yeah. No, but we don't.
Starting point is 00:51:39 I don't think one person in middle America is going to go see the Black Panther movie. I'm not worried about middle America. And white people only see, unfortunately, white people only see the slavery black movies. They don't go to see when black people are empowered. I'm not worried about that. That was going to be my argument. And I'm uncomfortable with Rory making it, so just shut up. Listen, I don't think that white people are letting anything black hit the top of the charts, including the Panthers.
Starting point is 00:52:00 The only reason I will disagree with that, though, is because it's Marvel. So white people will go see whatever Marvel puts out anyway. So I believe that wholeheartedly. But I don't think it's going to break records more so than Wonder Woman or Justice League. Because it's just, you know what I'm saying? I think it'll break records if us, as African Americans, if we decide for it to break the record. When we decide for something to happen, we hold the power in this country. We just don't know that yet.
Starting point is 00:52:26 We are the biggest consumers in this country. We just don't know that yet. So if we all say we're going to support the Black Panther movie, that movie will be the highest grossing movie ever. Okay. That's period. But we're all not saying that. I was going to say, I don't think everybody's saying that.
Starting point is 00:52:40 No, we're not saying it, but I do think a lot of people are going to go out and support this movie. I really do. I think once Black actors- Are you going to go out and support this movie. I really do. I think once black actors- Are you going to see it? Hell yeah. Are you going to try to emulate some of the movies? Yeah, I am, actually.
Starting point is 00:52:56 I am. That's what I'm going to learn. The week after the podcast, the week after I go watch the movie, that next podcast is going to be amazing. I'm coming in, I'm fucking everybody up. I'm letting y'all know that. Sound like a Wu-Tang album? Yeah, I'm fucking everybody up.
Starting point is 00:53:10 Okay. And then the Avengers movie comes out shortly after that, like in May or some shit, right? That's another reason I don't think this is happening. Right. I don't think that
Starting point is 00:53:18 this is breaking records just for the Avengers to come and fucking total that shit in a few months. I don't see it. But the trailer's great. And I'm not big Mr. Marvel guy anymore. I feel like they milking this shit at this point.
Starting point is 00:53:32 Once I went to the movie to see some shit and saw an Ant-Man preview, I was like, all right, Stan. All right, Stan Lee. And Ant-Man I heard was dope. I didn't see that shit just because, no. I didn't see it in the theaters, but I saw it. It was a good movie. You definitely rented Ant-Man I heard was dope. I didn't see that shit just because, no. I didn't see it in the theaters, but I saw it. It was a good movie.
Starting point is 00:53:46 You definitely rented Ant-Man. Nah, I waited for that shit to come on cable. Ant-Man came on cable? Yeah, it came on like, oh shit. Ant-Man was kind of hard. I liked Ant-Man. I thought Ant-Man was good. What else was I going to ask you guys about while we're on television?
Starting point is 00:54:03 Fuck. There was something on netflix i just want to say i think i think that that that television show this is us might be one of the greatest shows ever i don't what tell me more i didn't see that that's the one that uh oh that's what people keep telling me to watch yo listen that show might be one of the greatest written and it's on netflix that's on nbc nbc that show what's it about a family of triplets who grow up and they all have different lives like it's two it's two brothers and a girl and but a couple had triplets one of them died during delivery and i'm assuming the mother died
Starting point is 00:54:40 during delivery no one of the kids died oh okay but when the kids died a fireman brought in a baby that was just left at a firehouse stoop that same night so the family adopted him like this is like god sent like we lost a child during birth and here comes a child that was just left on a firehouse stoop the same night so they all have the same birthday technically like so it's like we're just gonna adopt him but the baby was black. This was a white family. But they adopted him anyway, raised him, you know what I mean? And now they're all doing different things in their lives. The story is just crazy.
Starting point is 00:55:12 But the way it's written and acted, it's crazy. I watched like eight episodes one night. And I never heard of this show before. I heard it's good. It won a lot of awards. A lot of people have told me to watch it. No, it's dope. You to watch it Nah it's dope You'll like it
Starting point is 00:55:26 It's dope But is this a Comedy Drama It's No it's Suspense It has funny moments

Starting point is 00:55:54 I love to cry. You're a crier. You're a crier. Joe's a crier. You'll cry because you're a crier. Hipster tears. Hipster tears. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:56:01 Hold on. I mean, you are a crier. Hipster tears. Joe's a crier. Joe, I could see you being a crier. He's a crier. There's videos of Joe crying. He's a crier.
Starting point is 00:56:08 That's what I'm trying to tell you. He's a crier. Mad videos of Joe crying, actually. Let me see what song you're going to bring out. Nigga, Joe just started crying like it's going to be nice tomorrow. Everyone relax. Everyone simmer down here. Now he got to get tough.
Starting point is 00:56:22 Yeah, fuck out. Where my gunshots at? While I'm crying. Fucking nigga. I didn't know if I wanted to just let the world know I'd be crying about shit. Who has seen you cry? What are you talking about? What? You love crying on TV.
Starting point is 00:56:35 Yeah, that's a fact. No, I cry way more now. Oh. Even worse. I cry. I saw Joe post a video of him crying. Listen, this is when I knew you was crazy. Wait, what?
Starting point is 00:56:44 Yes. What do you have to cry about? What are you crying about? You have to start coming to our pre-podcast. This is when I knew you was crazy. Wait, what? Yes. What do you have to cry about? What are you crying about? You have to start coming to our pre-podcast. This is when you think he was crazy. No, seriously. I got to stop hearing these stories on the block. Joe was watching, and I love Prince just like Joe does.
Starting point is 00:56:56 No, you don't. Yes, I do. No, you don't. No, you do not love Prince like me. Did you cry? Who knows you? When Prince died? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Hell yeah. Okay, so maybe you do. Everybody does. Did you cry in a video for the people? What. Did you cry in a video for the people? What? Did you cry in a video for the people? No, no, no. Joe posted a video.
Starting point is 00:57:09 He was home watching like a tribute to Prince. Yeah. And he was recording. I think first of all, any nigga that records themselves crying with their phone is a fucking lunatic. Number one. That's true. I also think Joe is a lunatic.
Starting point is 00:57:20 Absolutely. So he posted the video and said, I miss Prince. Allergies. With a crying emoji face. I said, this nigga is really crazier than I thought he was. That's pretty awesome though.
Starting point is 00:57:32 That's pretty. What? That's pretty crazy. It's not crazy. I don't think that's crazy. This nigga done did B&E's. He did all types of. I don't think that's crazy though.
Starting point is 00:57:40 So that's, wait, see that's my problem with Maul. Because everything Joe does is crazy. But Drake can wait till a girl with Maul. Because everything Joe does is crazy. But Drake can wait till a girl goes in the bathroom and go in her purse and take her phone and hide it. And you rationalize that. And I can't cry?
Starting point is 00:57:55 No, I'm not saying you can't cry. And with the crying emoji? It's when and how you cry. I cry all the time now. That's crazy to me. What are you crying for? Because I'm in touch with how people should feel. Oh, my God. I'm all the time now. That's crazy to me. What are you crying for? Because I'm in touch with how people should feel.
Starting point is 00:58:07 Oh my God. I'm not in touch with my feelings. No, you are. If you're crying, you're in touch. Something is touching your feelings.
Starting point is 00:58:12 So were you in touch with Prince's feelings when you were crying? But every time I cry, I'm not crying because of me. I'm crying because of the show and how they should feel. And it's tapping you.
Starting point is 00:58:21 It's somewhere in you. It's tapping into an emotion. It's your feelings, bro. That's what crying is. When you see something on TV and you start crying, it's because it's hitting an emotion in somewhere in you it's tapping into your feelings bro that's what crying is you're not crying when you see something on tv and you start crying it's because it's hitting an emotion in you that you can identify with no thank you dr fucking rashad i'm just saying wait and you are the last nigga that i'm going to for my emotional advice why why because i don't cry because you don't know how to deal with your emotions i do know

You know what I mean? So we still haven't gotten an emotion yet. An emotion I'm going for. Insecurity, doubt, I don't know.

Starting point is 01:01:11 Yeah We just went from Happy to upset No no no I'm just trying to Understand like With your niggas I don't even know
Starting point is 01:01:16 What a lot of my niggas If I've seen Other emotions Besides happy or Just totally pissed off So let's dig deeper Into that You don't think
Starting point is 01:01:23 That's a problem That you don't know how any of your friends feel? that's strange. No, not knowing how they feel and seeing their emotions is different things though.
Starting point is 01:01:30 You can ask your nigga like, yo, what's going on? You alright? I've done that with plenty of my niggas but to see my nigga
Starting point is 01:01:35 crying, it's like, what the fuck? What's going on my nigga? You alright? That's when you expect the heartfelt, emotional,
Starting point is 01:01:40 emotional. How else do you start a conversation with your friend about his emotions? Do you sit him down and light candles? No, I've been trying to spike Maul's drinks with Molly for years to uncover how he feels about things. I don't know if that's a good friend thing or a bad friend thing.
Starting point is 01:01:59 It's a little rapey to do to the rape analyst. A little rapey. No, mine rapey. That's a little rapey, Joe. Wait, I told you I caught that nigga. I told you I caught that nigga one night. He keep trying to not acknowledge it.
Starting point is 01:02:10 You didn't catch nothing. Yes, I did. But Molly will make you cry for no reason. You just cry because you're happy. No, we had them escorts over. I slipped that Molly in Maul's drink and hit him with a fake sleep move. I went to fake sleep. You can't sleep on Molly.
Starting point is 01:02:24 No, I was fake sleeping. To listen to Maul's feelings. But why would he even believe that? Because he was telling strange girls. I didn't believe that. They used to tell strange girls their feelings before they tell their friends. That's true. That's definitely true.
Starting point is 01:02:34 That's 100% true. It wasn't a strange girl. I'll tell a strange girl before my girl. That is ridiculous. Rory, don't say nothing else. Wait, what did Rory say? Rory said he'll tell a strange girl before he tells his girl his feelings. Get out of here, Rory.
Starting point is 01:02:46 Shut up. Strange chicks give the best advice. Yo, you know what's funny? Why do girlfriends be so mad when you get advice from a strange chick?
Starting point is 01:02:54 Word. They're objective. No, because they be adding influence. They have no dog in the race. They'll give you the better. No, that's not true. The more objective
Starting point is 01:03:01 point of view. That's not true. I want to hear Bridget's answer. That's not true. Women, because I don't I don't want you influenced by some next chick who doesn't know me
Starting point is 01:03:08 doesn't know you doesn't know our relationship why is she doesn't mean they're influenced yeah but what qualifies her to be giving you advice she's strange stranger danger
Starting point is 01:03:15 get out of here Bridget it was nine of y'all chasing boobie last night I cannot I'm so tired of this I'm not chasing him dog no no
Starting point is 01:03:23 nobody was chasing him. No, no. So let's define Chase then. Let's define Chase. Please define Chase. Chase is running. Nobody ran after him. Nobody ran after him.
Starting point is 01:03:35 I wasn't even, I didn't even care. I had already moved on and wasn't even trying to talk about him no more. Anytime you got to put even in your opening sentence, you're wrong. What? I didn't even. Now you're trying to emphasize? I didn't even. Now you're trying to emphasize what you didn't do. No, I'm trying to emphasize
Starting point is 01:03:48 what the preliminary part of the conversation would have mattered if I gave a shit about that. I don't care. I wasn't chasing him. If I was your boyfriend, that light-skinned nigga?
Starting point is 01:03:59 Ex-boyfriend. Let's clarify. So he left you like a real nigga? Oh my God. He dumped me. He waited till the cameras turned on. Like a real light skin. Like real light skin dude was like...
Starting point is 01:04:09 Not the applause. Clap it up. You're going to go on TV and tell everybody y'all cheated on this Herb nigga and think he's supposed to stay? Well first of all, he had already left and he came back. That's on him.
Starting point is 01:04:25 That's not on me. I'm not doing that no more. That's crazy. God forbid he tried to work through his relationship. He wasn't trying to work through anything, but he used that opportunity. Not what he said on the reunion. Yeah, but he's full of shit. That's fine.
Starting point is 01:04:38 It happens. Men are full of shit sometimes. That's okay. If you double back and revisit a situation and you still hurt and you still resentful, you don't need to be there. Take the time to heal. That's okay. You're not trying. If you double back and revisit a situation and you still hurt and you still resentful, you don't need to be there. Take the time to heal.
Starting point is 01:04:49 Go over there. Do it over there. No, no. You're right, but I just don't think you can be right as a cheater. You can't say that.
Starting point is 01:04:58 Yes, I can. If you tell me you forgive me and we moving forward, you don't get to hold that over my head anymore. You don't get to see her and punch me. Fuck out of here.
Starting point is 01:05:04 I'm definitely holding that over your head for the rest of our lives for the rest of our lives up in heaven where he at no here's the thing here's the only time that I feel like that's acceptable where's the thing it's only acceptable if you if you do it to me and it's behind closed doors and that's our relationship, cool. But don't take advantage of a platform and try to trash me because you and your feelings. That's not fair. What's the point of the platform? That is the point of going on the platform.
Starting point is 01:05:34 What is it that you're talking about? No, it's not. That's whack. Not to shit on the person you're out here claiming you love. That's terrible. So tell me what you did to kind of heal things or help things. I went to a therapist and I was single for a long time. Lucky him.
Starting point is 01:05:53 Yes. Lucky him. That'll fix him. Yeah. This is dangerous. You can't fuck with a life-saving chair. This is craziness. You sitting here, you see nothing wrong with hurting men this way.
Starting point is 01:06:03 You starting a vicious cycle. No, no, no. And I said this to you last week. I'm not condoning. A faithful black man. I'm not condoning. First of all, let me be clear. In this second go-around, he was not faithful.
Starting point is 01:06:15 And I chose not to bring that to the show. So you're hating. He did get a pass. No, he did get a pass. No, he got a pass. That's why I didn't bring it to the show. But by you getting a pass, then that means we're working on this. That means that we're working on this. don't you don't then get to come back
Starting point is 01:06:27 after you do all that shit all right you got your pass your pass doesn't doesn't extend into let me go ahead and trash this girl should be a couple passes because you have you didn't have the pass now i have the pass it should be yeah but a couple there yeah but the couple the couple passes the couple passes don't get to be exercised on national television because you feeling froggy. Let me tell you what the rumor is. Go for it. I hate rumors. So do I.
Starting point is 01:06:51 But when I read it, it made a little sense. They're saying, this is what the streets said. Okay. that Marcus sent you to be intimate with Boobie so that he could be back with Brooke. What do you think about that theory? That's what the street said. Is that what the street? Right, I was like,
Starting point is 01:07:16 are we getting to the bottom of this? The streets are trying to get to the bottom of this? What block said that? The streets is grass. If that's what the streets is trying, it's the end of America. Who's street? It's still really heavy. Who's street? It ain't shit going on in the streets.
Starting point is 01:07:28 Who said that, Joe? What block you heard that on, bro? Who's street said that? Who's street? No. I'm not confirming that. I'm not confirming that. That's what the sheets are saying,
Starting point is 01:07:37 not the streets. Oh, okay. Okay. Well. Did you have a nickname for Boobie? No. I thought Boobie was the nickname. I mean, Marcus was calling him Lil Booboo,
Starting point is 01:07:47 which I thought was wild disrespectful. You ain't calling him Boob when you're just trying to say something quick? First of all, let's be clear. You can't call no nigga Lil Nothing when your girl wants to be with her. Yeah, I can. No, you can't.
Starting point is 01:08:02 You look nuts. I can do whatever I want. You look nuts. The only time you get to call that nigga is when you're in front of his crib with the hammer. Yeah, what are you talking about, little boo-boo? Little boo-boo. First of all, that's suspect already.
Starting point is 01:08:13 Right. Here's the thing. Here's my problem. My problem for real is just the fact that on a reunion show, on all this other shit, you were quiet. You didn't want to participate. You wanted to keep kind of a class. You wanted to be above board and be
Starting point is 01:08:26 classy and then the first chance you get to throw jabs, you throwing. You coming out the gate swinging and that to me is corny. That's corny. Do you think that it's corny that everyone is unfairly judging and bashing Bow Wow in this vulnerable time? What vulnerable time?
Starting point is 01:08:42 What is vulnerable about Bow Wow photoshopping himself into pictures? Can we stop? What's vulnerable about that? In Bow Wow photoshopping himself into pictures can we stop what's vulnerable about that in Bow Wow's defense he was signed to death row I didn't see the problem with it yeah I'm trying to I'm going to defend him too
Starting point is 01:08:51 how do y'all know that he wasn't signed to death row I'm not I don't care one way and the other way why are we posting on the chronic tour
Starting point is 01:08:58 and why how do we know that was photoshop and the second you answer I'm tossing to my death row expert analysis I was going to say can we just cut, I'm tossing to my death row expert analysis. I was going to say, can we just cut to, let's just cut to, cut to our senior analyst. Analyst, nigga.
Starting point is 01:09:14 To me, I think Bow Wow, analyst. I think at this point, Bow Wow, he's just having fun with the internet. That's just Bow Wow. That's his way of being relevant right now. Like to just do funny shit yeah just to do wild funny shit so you think he's trolling yeah definitely
Starting point is 01:09:28 that is a trash way to be relevant I mean it's working we're talking about it on the podcast you do it all the time like I think he won he won like well I'm the only nigga
Starting point is 01:09:40 that every time we talk about Bow Wow I get upset that we don't mention it like like music career like it is sad to me that this is where we at with it yeah he was talented i yeah i mean made a lot of money sold a lot of records bridget threw pretzels at brook on loving hip hop last night but she missed but she was right in front of her can you can you explain was it the release was it your elbow movement how did you miss break down exactly how you should be able
Starting point is 01:10:11 to grab gravitate they should they should did you come from the shoulder or the hip well first of all he's coming off an injury no i was coming off injury well drake didn't come see me in the hospital if i was so it doesn't matter no I no I literally it was a weak it was a weak motion it was not even meant to be do you throw like a girl
Starting point is 01:10:31 I am a girl so but do you throw like a girl throwing like a girl would not be an insult to me I agree I was just asking if I'm a girl
Starting point is 01:10:38 I would tread lightly with that tone why don't you throw it like a girl what okay Joe I'm repeating what you said. Why do you have to repeat it with that?
Starting point is 01:10:46 With that tone? You hear that, mom? She throws like a girl. Yeah. What? What's wrong with you? At what point in the argument did you think, hey, she's salty. Hey, this delicious bar snack is salty as well.
Starting point is 01:11:02 These two things should go against each other. I don't know. I don't know where. It was witty. It was. If't know where i don't it was witty it was it would have connected if it was what even would have connected honestly you know we know how that how that bowl of pretzels and trail mix actually came about in all honesty because i told everybody who throws trail mix i told it because i told everybody that i would not be i would not throw drinks so they they put the trail mix on the counter they put the trail mix on the counter. They put the trail mix on the counter, looked at me like, I mean, it's here.
Starting point is 01:11:29 You didn't break contracts. Whatever you want to do. And I was like, great, whatever I want to do. And then she just kept going, so I just threw the trail mix. Whatever you want to do. It didn't connect. I don't care if it connected. It didn't matter.
Starting point is 01:11:40 My joke was good. I didn't care about anything else. Where do we rank Bridget in the salty pretzel thing in the love and hip hop? Top 20 for sure. Rank her throwing? My throwing was that. Old girl from Chicken Noodle Soup threw the bread at Drewski's girl because she was a bird. Chicken Noodle Soup, that's a good throw. There's definitely a list here to be compiled.
Starting point is 01:12:00 I was unaware. I'm putting Bridget top 30. Bridget, she was trash. I don't know if I 30. Yeah, Bridget shit was trash. I don't know if I can put top 20. It was pretty trash. Chicken soup is a... That's salad. Who threw chicken soup?
Starting point is 01:12:10 That's crazy. The chicken noodle soup girl. Talking about young people. Oh. I was about to say, somebody threw some chicken noodle soup at her because she was being a bird. That's Rory's ex.
Starting point is 01:12:19 He trying to fuck her. You remember the girl. That's my ex. That's Maul's ex. That's why he... Right. Yeah. That makes sense. That's my ex. That's what he's right. Yeah, that makes sense. What's her name? And you're taking the wine to the head, too, after he says it.
Starting point is 01:12:31 You remember. What's her name? I don't want to show my feelings to you guys. Oh, my God. Well. That is funny. Yeah. Wait, so listen.
Starting point is 01:12:39 Rick Ross and Birdman have a back and forth going on that I would tell you guys about. But Birdman texted me over the weekend and I was afraid. Why did Birdman text you? Why did he text you? Do it matter? I mean, I'm so scared of shit. Text you saying what? Well, actually, it wasn't him directly.
Starting point is 01:13:03 It was like. Russ? I didn't get that from it. It was somebody with like initials and killer after the name. I don't know if you've noticed, but he played the What's Beef record for Russ
Starting point is 01:13:17 but has not played the What's Beef record for Burt Mays. Smart. I'm not going to play the What's Beef record for actually... Let me find a record to play the What's Beef record. Actually, let me find a record to play. We are the world. Yeah, go ahead and play. Play Unity.

I'm telling you a record to play. No, I'm not playing I Want want y'all to talk? Play the record. I'm telling you a record to play.
Starting point is 01:13:46 No, I'm not playing I Want To Be Down. All right, well, shit. That's all I had. All right. So Birdman calls. Yeah, right. And at first, I was going to get pretty arrogant. At first, I told the killer guy, I said, well, I ain't looking for no record deal,
Starting point is 01:14:07 och. Right. And as soon as I said it, I thought to myself, holy shit, I think they know that. I said, holy shit, I don't think they're calling to offer me a record deal. Right. Wait, what was the text? Why would you think they to offer me a record deal. Wait, what was the text? Why would you think they were offering you a record deal? Because why else is Birdman calling me?
Starting point is 01:14:31 You might have said something about everyday struggle. And then the more I thought, I remembered the Birdman topic on everyday struggle. Oh, man. The gloomy picture just kept coming together. So you started analyzing a little bit? Oh, I. The gloomy picture just kept coming together. You started analyzing a little? Oh, man. I started realizing things. But him and I didn't eventually hop on the phone.
Starting point is 01:14:54 He'll call me eventually. We'll see what's going on. That's what you think. Or he'll just pull up. That's what I was about to say. Or he'll just pull up. Well, no. The killer friend was extremely nice.
Starting point is 01:15:04 Now, he was super. You know, any nigga who's killed somebody before be super nice. Well, no. The killer friend was extremely nice. Now, he was super... Any nigga who's killed somebody before be super nice. That's true. Like, they be really nice guys until they have to kill you. Right. So, he was great.
Starting point is 01:15:12 And I'm being facetious. I don't know. He was a great guy. Great conversation. So, we'll see. Berman said he wanted to come up to the show. Okay.
Starting point is 01:15:19 There you go. I mean, what y'all doing that day? I'm busy, bro. Definitely busy. So without a job, you're just busy anyway. So you're doing a questionnaire that day. I think so, yeah. Definitely have a questionnaire.
Starting point is 01:15:35 A cut-code knife meeting. Rory's definitely a fucking male escort running around filling out fucking questionnaires. All right, let me turn Unity off. Birdman is a friend of the show, and shout out to Birdman. No doubt. No? I mean, you didn't have one queued up. I just helped you out.
Starting point is 01:15:51 Wait a minute. Damn, I never want to hear what happened to that boy again. Oh, man. I'm that boy? Yes. Wait, so Russ think I'm pussy, Chance think I'm pussy, and Birdman might think I'm that boy. Birdman I will speak to like a gentleman yeah as far as Russ and fucking chance how about this damn it
Starting point is 01:16:17 listen I'm done I have no more to say I don't care about anything else that's happening uh before we go oh wait Bridget has her fucking artist boots on because she's going to the title concert with Rory, but Rory's not a hipster. Why do they have to be my artist boots? Why can't they just

Starting point is 01:18:38 came out and they just like patched in like three or four it didn't feel like an album to me this one felt more like an album to me it's my analysis I like this project more i definitely like this project more than the last
Starting point is 01:18:50 one i think they i think i don't know if they're collectively writing or what but i think the music is um it's a lot stronger this album i think they're starting to make their their like mark now you think they could break through with this sound yeah I think so to like the weekend area
Starting point is 01:19:08 I think so I'd be interested to see I don't know cause this I mean they didn't move which I loved I like how they stayed in their sound

Because you have so much substance and we don't have any gotcha Rory you are not about to win the substance battle.

Starting point is 01:26:02 Nah, Boy Wonder. When we were on the roof At the old crib With Boy Wonder Going through beats For All Love Lost We picked Love For You Which is now the last track On All Love Lost

And if not, I'ma say fuck y'all bitches. Man, real rap. I'm with some real women that touch y'all bitches. Until then, I'ma say fuck y'all bitches.

Starting point is 01:33:39 What's beef? What's beef? That's not your ordinary Joe. Every day struggle. Everyday is a struggle from Russ. Oh, all right. My bad. That's not it?
Starting point is 01:33:54 That's not the new Russ record? All right. That sounds like it could be dope. That record doesn't sound good. Brand new Russ. I ain't academics. Day job from Chance the Rapper. Yikes. Pardon me. Are you guys finished? I ain't academics. Day job. I'm Chance the Rapper. Yikes.
Starting point is 01:34:07 Pardon me. Are you guys finished? I don't even know how the mic get this low. Whatever. I am going to play. A Birdman record. A Bow Wow record. Whenever you guys stop being children.
Starting point is 01:34:23 Let's see here. What happened? All right. So the sleeper I'm going to play, you ever just hear, this song has started the album. No. Hey, hey, hey.
Starting point is 01:34:40 Is that a sleeper? Damn, man. Fucking bird, man. Like a song that's haunting me, man. Goddamn, I'm the boy. All right. I'm going to play a song off the new Division album because I was a bit thrown off when I first heard the intro to this album. Because it was, where's the album? is that oh fine i gotta play it from
Starting point is 01:35:09 my phone why is it not in my computer uh so when i first heard the intro track from the division album i was confused and i didn't know how to feel about it because initially it's just very aggressive and it's just crazy so i'm gonna play it because it turned into such a welcome high. What a great fucking tune by these guys. I don't know if Divij wrote this or who. I think it was Jun.
Starting point is 01:35:32 Jun might have did this. This one is pretty hard though. So this is the opening song of the new Division album and before I play that I also want to say that her is dropping this Friday too.
Starting point is 01:35:43 I'm excited about that. An EP. Her continues to drop and she's dropping a lot. And her tour sold out, I think. So we can be excited about New Her. Do you like the new single that came out? Yeah, I do.
Starting point is 01:35:55 I like it a lot too, but it kind of threw me, it was like, kind of like Georgia Smith-ish, who I like her too a lot, but it just didn't it was too poppy for her record for me. Well, this is not my sleeper, but let's talk about it. This is poppy. Like UK now 2017 white girl poppish.
Starting point is 01:36:17 Yeah, it is. This is a Georgia Smith record. Which it's a great record. It's just not what I expected from her. I feel like RCA, they let her rock for so long. It kind of feels like this felt a little forced to me. This didn't feel like this came from her. Okay, well, let's be clear.
Starting point is 01:36:37 They are letting her rock, but eventually she's got to catch something. Right. Yeah. So, all this little EP shit that we enjoy to be barefoot and clean our house too all that's great but rca is waiting for a record of course they are this ain't it no it's not but i didn't think that when i heard this you know what i thought i thought all right she's had enough of him right she has had enough of him conceptually him he gotta go yeah but knew her means knew him is coming.
Starting point is 01:37:05 So she better watch it. Him is on that ass. She better watch it. That nigga him going to respond. He ain't going to be with some pretzels. But this is not my sleeper. Where is this fucking Division album? Here we go.
Starting point is 01:37:18 This is called Runaway Off. The new Division album called Morning After. Check it out. It's not in stores. In your phone right now. That's a store. Yeah. Your phone is just or yeah. Yeah, it is. Oh You're at that party That riff was the huh
Starting point is 01:37:41 Nigga you need strength Now you start your album telling me you need strength. I used to watch your album telling me you need strength nigga And then forget about it You said we should stop now And I thought we'd get around to it But I just got around It's time I do right Cause you should've left Do it for me You won't do it yourself You put me first When I put you through it
Starting point is 01:38:19 Yeah, I put you through it When I should've knew it It was best that you run away I'm no good for you, I'm a rotten fox, somebody pray that So I'm a woman ready for you while I get my life together Oh, this part is so hard. Anytime the artist puts something that sounds like it's from a Spartan movie is hard. I love these chants.
Starting point is 01:39:09 Oh, that's hard. Start rapping, bro. I wanted to put a verse here. If I wasn't retired, there's so much stuff I would rap to. Except to Russ. See? Just that fast. And Chance.
