Episode 422 of the Joe Button Podcast.
I'm your humble, gracious, grateful, and highly favored host, Joe Button,
here with a few of my nearest and dearest.
Rory is here.
Parks is here.
E-Rab is here. Mole is here.. Parks is here. E-Rab is here.
Mole is here.
Savon is here.
And Alex, the greatest here.
Gentlemen, how's everybody doing?
Good.
How y'all feeling?
How was your weekend?
Fucking beautiful outside.
How's your winter?
It is nice.
Changes your mood drastically.
Yeah.
That coming into spring after the winter, you just get extra happy.
My body is ready.
Take me somewhere.
Take all of me. Yo, I'm here and we get extra happy. My body is ready. Take me somewhere. Take all of me.
Yo, I'm hearing we should move to Tulum.
I'm with it.
Yeah, I'm hearing that.
That's what you...
Who told you this?
Young boys?
No.
Young boys out there getting crazy?
My cousin, D-Mac.
Okay, shout out D-Mac.
Yeah, he moved out there.
For real?
It's really easy, yeah.
Because once you go to Mexico, you automatically get six months to stay.
They stamp your passport with a visa. So you get six months to stay. They stamp your passport with a visa.
So you get six months to stay.
Cost of living, you get a crazy house out there for $1,000 a month.
It's a bunch of people from New York that live out there now that people don't know about.
It's New LA?
Yeah.
I'm hearing it's really booming.
Booming like how?
Like it's where people are moving.
It's like people are treating it like another
state at this point so some of the same things we've heard about uh austin texas uh miami
you know but like a lot of people are room is like what what are the tax laws in tulum
it's a great question i do know people have started businesses out there through covid
like americans i know and haven't seemed to have any problem.
We should ask them, though, get some actual details.
Yeah, let's find out.
I was watching a Heath Ledger doc, another one, over the weekend.
Rest in peace.
Rest in peace, Heath Ledger.
And they were talking about how when he passed, who knows what his worth was because he had so much money tied up in Australia.
Okay.
And they were just talking about how you don't want to write a will when you're famous because a will goes through probate court and it's open for a public record and you can fight over it.
So if I perish and I have a will and it says, hey, Joe Budden was worth something stupid, let's say $40, $50 million.
Mad money.
Yeah. Then the people who are named
in the will can go to court
and fight over this stuff and people that
are not named in the will like that maybe
feel they should be it's just a mess
yeah so that's why they said when
famous or not
famous but people with money die they
do it like who was that was that ghost
was that ghost where they appoint somebody and Die they do it like Who was that Was that ghost Was that ghost
Where they appoint somebody
And then they hand it out
That person
Oh yeah
Hands it out
To the power
I forgot what that name
Of that person is
Yeah I forgot the name too
But yeah so
I forgot how
We should just put all our money
Into Tulum is what you're saying
Just keep all our shit over there
I mean
Just go there for four months
You know what I mean
Get a visa
How is so many girls
Going to Tulum?
I know you ain't got no job.
Tell me,
who bought you that room?
Why is so many girls
going to Tulum?
Who bought you that ticket?
Cause I know it wasn't you
in Tulum.
And it's Women's Month.
We want to shout out
all the women. Just in case y'all shout out all the women that are out there listening.
We all bought them tickets to Tulum for international women's.
Shout out Rory for even playing that clip.
I never heard that.
Yeah, you know, little number.
Do sleepers early.
Oh, that was a sleeper?
Yeah, that was my sleeper pick.
The part that you failed to mention about your cousin D-Mac moving out to Tulum is that he's also appeared in some of the world best body competitions that they have.
And he's-
You left that part out.
He's a fitness, a physique model.
He's also trained some of the best bodies that we all admire.
No, but he's really been in some of those, hey, you're the best male body on earth.
What did he come in
like 11th
I don't think
that's an L
no
he competes
I'll take that
yeah so him moving
to Tulum
11 and 6 billion
he probably incentivized
in ways that
Joe is not
before you got here
no no no
I was talking about
how badly built I am
and how my house
has mirrors everywhere
don't be
don't be
don't let that
deter me hold you back no trust me don't be, don't be, don't let that deter me.
No.
Trust me, don't.
Yeah, no,
you'll still get pussy.
It's people like,
they still suck on my chest.
They're not even here.
They're not even worried
about that.
There's food there now.
They're not even worried
about that.
You know,
there's no,
there's no indentation there.
Nothing.
They just,
just one thing.
It's just a nipple right there.
We got a hundred,
listen,
it just exists.
It's a tattoo. What's your tattoo say? I got this one. It's skinny, I don't know. It's a hundred days until right there. We got 100. Listen, it just exists. And a tattoo.
What's your tattoo say?

I don't know.
So, you know what I mean?
Just get on your program.
I got to give it to you and Rory, man.
You and Rory, you guys have been ahead of the summer bod competition.
Yeah, you got to start in the winter.
I just knew that summer was canceled, so I haven't done a push-up since 2017.
That's okay.
Start today.
You guys, though.
You guys, man.
It was canceled way after 2017.
Yeah, but 2017 is when I won that fight,
so I didn't feel like I needed a push-up.
I was like, oh, that did it.
That still lands?
Oh, shit.
That dazed him a little?
Imagine with the strength.
Yeah, imagine if I work out.
The city wouldn't be safe if I got muscles
the city's so safe

since I did a little push up
but

Yeah, they have cartels.
We have the government.
Cartel taxes.

It's safe.
It's safe.

I've been reading your comments.
Once you start itching the face.
Gave you a headache?
The comments?
Hate these niggas.
I hate every one of them. Well, I don't read them, man.
I just stay off of that shit.
Reading the comments, man.
I was reading them in the middle of some self-doubt, maybe.
It must be.
That's the best time to read comments about yourself.
That's when you go looking for them.
Hey, maybe someone say something good and I'll feel better.
And then it's just way shittier stuff.
I'm like, oh, wow.
I guess all the feelings I have about myself are true.
I do suck.
Rory's absolutely right.
That's when you have to price his right to comments, which is horrible.
I hit him with a long stroke, like when they turn the wheel.
Wherever you land, just hope it's a good one.
Nah, Joe ain't too bad.
See?
This is what I've been telling y'all.
He feel me right here.
Somebody understands me.
Somebody understands me.
Then I got to pretend to LOL with the hate.
Ha, ha, ha.
You guys are funny.
I'm really insecure.
Good one, Dan.
Dan with no picture.
Dan 0-0-7-3-7-6-5-4-2.
You understand me.
We should be friends.
Oh, man.
I forgot what I was saying.
I don't remember.
Maul is sitting next to some strangely gold boxes.
Yeah, I came down there.
I figured this Parks got his shrine going,
so I thought this was some more Parks shit.
Parks ordered some Coming to America merch.
Oh, yeah.
They sent you the bracelets and everything to wear.
He's getting paid
to tweet about it.
Take a picture in front of the TV
watching the movie.
Ooh, Eddie did it again.
Yeah.
He put his silver
Coming to America
tribal bracelet on already.
Yeah, that's true.
Had to.
And his, let me see,
Coming to America Apple watch.
I wonder what's in,
what are in these folks?
He's in America.
Maybe we should unbox one.
That looks like someone
that understood the vision
that doesn't look
like Dan 0078
I unboxed one earlier
so I'll just blow
to reveal
as you guys
you want me to wait
I'll wait man
I'll wait
when was the last time
what could it be
when was the last time
you really unboxed
something though
like you really felt
good about yourself
after
like oh I did that
she can't say shit
to me for another month.
It never works.
No, I've done it. It's never worked.
They always say something to me like three days after.
What they got for us?
Just four boxes. The Coming to America
A1s. It's four of us.
Crazy.
It's like when you got your Rockefeller chain, huh?
Finally, we get some respect around these parts

I prepared a little note here.
I'm so surprised at what I deserve.
Why niggas be like,
yo, I don't know where to find the words
and then find mad words?
You were nominated six months ago.
You've been up there talking for seven minutes, sir.
You found enough words.
Yo, we're joking, but we're not.
No, we really are the best.
We can't do that because all the YouTube commenters are saying that my ego is about to be the demise of this podcast.
Well, it's been the demise of other things in your life.
Mom, they're telling me that it's over.
My ego is growing too big, and what will we do about it?
Joe, you fumbled the bag.
And then I felt, hold up for a minute, because I was hurt.
I felt a way about it
because my ego is way bigger than they were saying.
You haven't shown them anything yet.
Oh my God.
Wait till they get a load of me.
I'm waiting till we get the back catalog back from Spotify
in May 2022.
I'm showing my ass.
Our demise is going to be way crazier than they think.
Come on, man.
It's going to be fireworks at our demise.
Yeah, I got a couple more egotistical tricks to show them.
While you're on your ego, I do have some gripes about the JBN.
I did want to come here and talk about some things.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
Yesterday.
Get HR ready.
HR ready.
Where did he touch you?
His thigh.
But I like that
I welcomed it
Oh fuck
I'd walk right into it
Show us on the award
Where he touched you
Show us on the award
Where
On the award
So he fondled me
So I go to do
See the thing is pod
With Brandy and
Brandy
What am I talking about?
Brandy and Bridget
I put them together They're Brandy now They're Brandy Together... Brandy? What am I talking about? Brandy and Bridget.
I put them together.
They're Brandy now.
They're Brandy.
Together, they're Brandy.
I like the branding, yeah.
I was thinking about my lawyer,
that's why.
So I get in there.
I go into Prem's studio or the JBN headquarter room.
Savon's the first face I see
and he's smiling.
Never seen Savon smile.
Okay.
He don't smile here, you're right.
That's true. the energy feels really joyful
Parks is I think doing wind sprints
in the hallway with his arms up
just having a fucking blast
that's how he gets focused that's how he hears everything
that's true
I walk down the hallway I see a room that I've never seen
and I've been in that studio countless times
I thought it was a closet
no it's a whole room dedicated
to screen man and savon with monitors to monitor the podcast yeah they're not in their actual room
then as time progresses before we start recording i see like a lot of white dishes with amazing pasta
meals and like real silverware and everyone is just grubbing and then i started to hinder back on how i'm treated at
this podcast with my bags of cheetos and plastic forks yeah you got to keep the essence everyone
was happy there yeah ian was there cory was there the legendary dj premiere was chilling
cream in the cut in some light i'm working on something now. Checking out the pod vibes. They had the whole
JBN staff there
happy.
Keeb was there.
Keeb has never even
been in this basement.
That's true.
That's true.

The screen name was glowing
He was glowing when I walked in.
Yeah, they should have called him
for coming to America. You'd have fit right in.
What? I'm trying to see all my guys get gigs.
Bandemic.
It's a bandemic.
Some favoritism going on. That's all.
See, the thing is
that's what a network is.
I just think people
don't care about men.
Well,
that's another point.
Yeah.
Not in women's month.
We don't really care.
No, in women's month.
We don't care about men.
That's a fact.
When was the last time
you gave a fuck about a man?
I don't give a fuck about men.
Speaking of not giving
a fuck about a man, I'm just trying to get this in real quick and then we a fuck about a man, I'm going to just try to get this in real quick, and then we can move on.
Y'all don't have to pay any attention to it.
Okay.
Let me find a different way to say it.
This should be good.
Because I'm going to get killed.
Use your words wisely, because they listening.
I'm going to get killed.
Yeah, they out there.
On my way over here today.
Okay, it's a good start.
Is it?
I took the today. Okay, that's a good start. Is it? I took the highway.
Okay.
And I have to say, there was no traffic at all.
And the lanes were fire.
These were some of the best lanes I've ever heard.
Man.
I've never seen the lanes like this.
No, I get it.
Now, it was a street I didn't even want to take.
Yeah, yeah.
But I took it.
And when I got it.
GPS just put you there.
Yeah, come on, soul to driver.
What you want right now?
Man, that shit was fire as hell.
Hell, I'm in a spot now.
Yeah.
I'm in a spot.
That's all I can say.
And we can move right on.
Move right on.
Move right on.
I get it.
I got what you mean.
I get what you mean.
I only pay attention to it.
I feel like such a hypocrite.
I do.
If I'm being transparent, what you got?
If you ever read the YouTube comments, you are such a hypocrite.
Oh, is that a woman? It's Woman's Month. You got to answer. If you ever read the YouTube comments, you are such a hypocrite.
Is that a woman?
It's woman's month.
You got to answer.
Decline.
Someone's feeling spicy.
You showed her.
She'll think twice next time.
I'll get to you when I get to you.
Sometimes you got to remind yourself who you be.
Who you be?
No one.
No one at all.
But listen, it always takes a few weeks for all the people that got mad at how you acted on Valentine's Day to come back. Come back around.
That's what it is.
The sun is out.
It's been a whole month now. Hey, how you doing? You know how I'm doing. You know how I'm doing. They come back. They come back around. That's what it is. The sun is out. It's been a whole month now.
Hey, how you doing?
You know how I'm doing.
You know how I'm doing.
You see me.
You saw how great
my Valentine's Day was
without you.
Bacon lobster.
Are you kidding me?
Come on.
All right.
Come on.
Let's get to something.
Let's get to something.
Got to be something
to get to.
All-Star Weekend recap.
All-Star Day.
Well, the weekend
didn't happen. There was a celebrity game,. All-Star Day. Well, the weekend didn't happen.
There was a celebrity game, wasn't there?
Saturday.
It was a weekend.
Let's start there.
Do you guys have any deep takeaways to pull from the celebrity 2-on-2?
Yes.
Because I do.
Yes.
Saving it.
Basketball is harder than people think.
Especially when you're playing Quavo. Just because you're from the hood and You're saying that 2-1-2 is good.
Especially when you're playing Quavo.
Just because you're from the hood and you're from the streets don't mean you can hoop.
Quavo could.
Yeah, Quavo can play.
All right.
I'm taking it way deeper than this.
Are we putting anything to the little baby Quavo rumors?
Are we or no?
Should we shut up now?
I'm cool with P and all them niggas now.
I don't want to make it bad again.
Nah, I'm not really putting too much into that.
Not based off of anything I saw.
Quavo had 17 points, 18 rebounds, and 11 assists.
He fucked around with Coach Trouble, though.
They only went to 21, Maul.
You want me to think that there was no beef involved in this?
Did anybody see Quavo's stat line?
Can you answer my question before you talk?
Quavo can hoop, though.
Can you answer what I'm saying, and then I'll let you.
I don't want to suppress anybody's opinion.
I didn't put nothing into it, no.
I just know that Quavo can hoop.
I expected him to have a-
But Triple Double?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You seen him block the three-pointer?
Yeah. And that was surprising on 2 Chainz. All right, I'm done talking to you. Because 2 triple-double? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You seen him block the three-pointer? Yeah.
And that was surprising on two chains.
All right, I'm done talking to you.
Because two chains, he can hoop too.
And he's tall.
I'm done talking to you.
Did you guys see the block?
I did.
I did see the block.
Was it an aggressive block?
It was, but that's how you're supposed to do that block.
Yeah, most blocks are aggressive, yeah.
And I'm done commentating this.
Can't passively block someone.
Because I'm definitely calling P soon to say,
y'all got to get with you.
Having double-digit-
Having double-digit points
and assists going to 21 is
insane. In a 2-on-2
game. Who's keeping those stats?
That's the more insane part. Jack Harlow.
No, that's an assist for Quavo. What?
I like Jack Harlow because... There's only two people.
In every clip I saw of Jack Harlow,
he did what he was supposed to do. Just pass to
Quavo. He moves while he's space.
Pass away.
Smart player.
Moves without the ball.
Now, listen, you guys.
I never expected Lil Baby to really have game because after I've interviewed him
and spoke to some dudes that are outside more than me,
I don't think he ever had the time to really work on his free throw.
That's not what he spent most of his time doing.
You know, people that participate in those activities,
usually Little League wasn't really their thing.
He didn't do CYO?
No, I doubt it.
Like when 50 threw out the first pitch at Citi Field,
and everyone was like, wow, I thought 50 would be more athletic.
I was like, he's still a cracker.
I don't think he was really at the baseball diamond.
He was pitching something else.
He wasn't pitching baseball.
He was pitching eight balls.
A little different.
When they caught Hove throwing the football, I was like, man.
Same thing.
He was in the caravan with Emery going to Maryland.
Same thing.
He didn't have time for pickup football.
Yeah, no.
or he going to Maryland.
Same thing.
He didn't have time for pickup football.
Yeah, no.
Which leads me to
why Dirkio
is even greater
than we all thought he was.
I imagine that you've all seen
the clips of Dirk playing ball.
He has a jumper.
He's the best
rapper, basketball player.
Now,
I've spoken to some
outside sources.
Outside of Master P, of course.
Master P actually played in an NBA exhibition game. Now, I've spoken to some outside sources. Outside of Master P, of course. Master P actually played in an NBA exhibition game.
Now.
Cam, too, no?
He didn't make the NBA, but he played a serious college football.
Shaq, Iverson, Kobe, they all rapped.
Wait, I want to get to the list of rappers.
I don't want y'all to speak to the rappers,
because I do want to talk about rappers that can hoop.
But back to Dirkio really quick.
because I do want to talk about rappers that can hoop.
But back to Dirkio really quick.
For his game to be so refined,
with, I imagine, not very much time to work on his skill set as well.
Yeah.
For whatever reason, be making music, I'm sure.
Of course.
Extracurriculars he was doing.
He's a little too nice.
Dirk? Yeah. No, Dirk, he can play. But where did he was doing. He's a little too nice. Natural talent.
Yeah.
No, Dirk, he can play.
But where did he learn to play like that?
Like, this guy really wanted to make it out of Chicago.
I'm going to find a way.
Hey, either you're slinging crack rock or you got a wicked jump shot.
Dirk said, I got both.
I'm getting out of this hood.
And I can rap.
And still didn't necessarily get all.
I mean, I don't know. I'm leaving it alone. Yeah. I'm getting out of this hood. And I can rap. And still didn't necessarily get all. I mean, I don't know.
I'm leaving it alone.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, Dirk can play, though.
He can really hoop.
Is Dirk the nicest rapper, basketball player?
I've seen, yes.
Him and Lil Dicky.
I've never seen Lil Dicky hoop.
Yeah, Lil Dicky hoop.
You've seen mad Lil Dickys.
It was right there.
It was right there.
I'm leaving.
Leave it, leave it, leave it, leave it.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go.
I follow Daylight on Instagram, and he posts a lot of his pickup basketball games where
he's hooping, hooping.
Yeah.
I just don't know who he's playing against.
Daylight can hoop.
I know.
I know he can hoop.
He can really hoop, yeah.
But I don't know if he's doing that against Bums.
Surf can hoop, too.
I've seen Surf hoop before.
Surf can hoop.
Joel Ortiz can hoop.
Yeah, Joel can hoop. Cam can hoop too. I've seen Surf hoop before. Surf can hoop. Joel Ortiz can hoop. Yeah, Joel can hoop.
Cam can hoop.
I never saw Jim hoop, but Jim chimed in and said him and Cam 2-1-2.
East can hoop.
I would imagine that Dave East can hoop.
Two champs should know how to hoop.
I think he played college ball too.
Yeah, he did play college ball.
What did you guys think of the actual All-Star Day, the festivities?
I thought they made the best of it.
It was a different situation.
They had to, you know, move things around, kind of put everything into one day.
So they did the best they could.
But this is a clear indicator that the fans are necessary for All-Star Weekend.
You have to have the fans in the building.
They only had about 2,500 people at the game.
And you can feel that, you can feel that energy was missing.
When Dame and I think Steph started shooting from half court,
I think if it was more people in the building,
that would have been a bigger moment.
You know what I mean?
Things like that.
But they did the best that they could.
And for what it was, it was enjoyable, I guess.
I enjoyed it.
I actually thought it was great for all the circumstances.
And I really didn't mind the halftime dunk contest.
I thought all that shit was really cool.
I felt like the dunk contest itself was a little mean.
But yeah, the structure of what I'm talking about.
It was a little rushed.
It was only, what, three contestants?
Yeah.
It was a little rushed.
And they weren't the most creative of dunks.
Yeah.
So, I mean, you know, we just need the fans back.
Any other takeaways from any of the festivities,
the game? I know for me, I, I got to tell you guys,
I don't think I've ever seen, let's talk about the LeBron Curry bromance, man.
I've never seen LeBron so happy to make an assist.
That guy, if there was one person he has been waiting to pass to his whole career,
it was Steph.
And that was on full display.
Wow.
And you know he talked to him after the game.
What do you think about LA, man?
You like Los Angeles?
Same state.
Yeah, 30-minute flight.
You're right there.
You got to change much.
Yeah, that was my takeaway.
It was good watching that bromance
because they both looked really happy about that.
Dame and Curry, man.
Those guys.
How do you think?
Dame need to come to the Knicks.
I got a list of people that need to come to the Knicks.
Dame Lillard is on there.
Bradley Beal is on there.
Look who you got.
LeBron would be cool.
LeBron and stuff.
That's the backcourt right there.
I get it. That's the backcourt right there. I get it.
That's the backcourt.
Matter of fact,
this all-star team
should just go to the Knicks.
You got your backcourt,
Noda.
Dame Lillard should be a Knick.
And I'm not going to say
anything else.
I'm not going to say a Knick,
but Dame,
he might not like it,
but he needs to get out of Portland.
And because of his character,
I know he-
He ain't going to leave. I know, he's not going to leave. He's not going to leave. But he needs, get out of Portland. And because of his character, I know he... He ain't going to leave.
He's never going to leave Portland.
He's not going to leave.
But he needs...
His talent is bigger than Portland Trailblazers.
Yeah, but stop, because then you start getting into
wanting the big names to leave mid-market.
I don't want him to leave.
I'm just saying that I don't...
Or smaller market.
Dame, if he was...
If Dame was in the garden doing this on a nightly basis, you understand?
Now, he's still an all-star, obviously, so he's still respected.
He's one of the best in the league.
But I think it's just different.
And then the Western Conference is so tough.
Like, Portland is going to have a tough time every year in the playoffs, you know what I mean?
In order to get to the Western Conference finals and stuff like that.
They're going to have a tough time.
So, if he's in the Eastern Conference, it may be a little easier to get to the Western Conference Finals and stuff like that. They're going to have a tough time. So if he's in the Eastern Conference,
it may be a little easier to get on that stage
with the Eastern Conference Finals
because he needs to be in the finals.
And I don't think he'll do that in the Western Conference.
I don't think Portland gets there.
Well, Portland at least.
Mike Conley, check this out, man.
It was cute for a minute.
You don't like Mike Conley again?
I love Mike Conley.
I love Mike Conley. okay I love Mike Conley
But I mean
Three point contest
He put 29 up there
With Steph left
Up there on the deck
Shot well
Shot real good
Yeah
We've had
I feel like
Such a large part
Of our relationship
Has to do with Mike Conley
You wanted him as a
Nick at one point
That's weird
He's a good point guard
Yeah no he's
One of the best point guards.
No, don't do that.
I met Maul through Marcus.
But Marcus was never playing behind Mike Conley.
Why was Mike Conley such a...
Oh, yes, he was in Memphis.
In Memphis.
Oh, yeah, Maul used to beat me down about Mike Conley.
I like Mike Conley, though.
No, no, I like him a lot, too.
But I liked him in college. But yeah, no, I like him a lot, too, but I liked him at,
I liked him in college.
But yeah, no, he did great,
but that's Steph coming up behind you.
That's Steph coming up behind you. Steph is just,
it's different, man.
Like,
Steph Curry's just a different,
I feel like he is
the league MVP at this point.
The Golden State was the worst team
in the league last year,
and he has them in the playoff picture now
with that team that they have,
and he's still missing his second best player.
He's just a different talent, man.
And Uncle Charles.
Uncle Charles, who's that?
Oakley?
I miss my Uncle Charles.
No, just that.
It was nothing important.
Just a random bulldog.
Anytime somebody's missing somebody, you got throw a buchon at them.
Come on.
Why Quavo do that to Lil Baby?
He had 17
points, 14 rebounds,
and four blocks in a
two-man.
To 21.
He didn't cover so much ground.
He was everywhere.
He might be the shortest guy on the
court. He was everywhere. That's nuts the shortest guy on the court. He was everywhere.
That's nuts, man.
Lil Baby got to shoot him.
You got to
shoot that nigga. You got to catch him at the
locker room. He going too crazy.
You not stop running
around the court, Lil Baby. Where's my fucking gun?
Real quick, real quick. Let me just
throw this out there. They saying
Migos got heat on the way.
I believe it.
Who's they?
The Streets.
Okay, Streets.
Multiple people in the Streets.
I hope it's not a 24-song album again.
People that I...
People that...
Well, some of them that I trust.
Other ones, they be wrong a lot.
But they telling me that Migos has heat coming.
I would expect the Migos to have it.
They've been chilling.
Take some time off.
You know what I mean?
Everybody go do their thing. experience some things you know unlock new ways to rap new
things to rap about man let me tell you sweetie yeah spend some time with sweetie sweetie like

We'll get around to it.
Not for nothing.
Yeah, I got the Cardi Sweetie project coming right up.

Yeah, no.
Shegoes is going to kill.
You know, shout out to Migos.
Shout out to everybody that played in that two-man game.
Round of applause for Cardi B.
Round of applause for Cardi B while we're at it it i'm just starting with a bunch of that i wouldn't
normally start with uh first female rapper to achieve a r-i-a-a diamond single award for bodak
yellow congratulations to atlantic records and everybody else to play the partner kodak is
getting paid where yeah i love that just like a freestyle

That's kind of nuts. I know they put money
behind it, but it started as a freestyle.
He has pub on that for sure.
The name of the record is Bodak Yellow.
Well, you could write it and it could be
named after you and you still not have pub.
No, I would hope. He does.
I'm just saying. He definitely has pub on that.
It's the same exact
beat
same
I mean
I'm shocked that she's the first
female
rapper to go
diamond anything
yeah

I'm sure Nicki Minaj
is going diamond something
I mean the Fugees
I was
Miseducation

I don't understand
I don't understand these stats. I don't understand these stats.
Congratulations to Cardi.
Somebody died over the weekend in Atlanta, right?
Chucky Trill.
And this sounds scary.
Anytime I read about a shootout on the highway, scariest thing ever.
Houston rapper Corey Chucky Trill, Teej Killed in Atlanta area
Shooting

On this
So I just wanted to say
Rest in peace
And send our love
Prayers and condolences
To the family
Yes
It's always unfortunate
All star weekend in Atlanta
Go somewhere
Try to have fun
For a weekend
And you know
Tragedy
Finds you
It's unfortunate
But it's a reoccurring thing in our culture, unfortunately.
Yeah.
I was actually shocked
at the amount of people I saw going down there.
I didn't think it was going to be that crazy.
I mean, I know Atlanta's wide open.
It's already crazy,
but I just didn't,
I don't know,
I felt like the allure of All-Star weekend
wasn't the same that it's always been.
And I saw everyone on IG going there.
Well, yeah. I mean, you know the the players that were uh in the game were not they couldn't go out to any
events and stuff like that but you gotta you gotta know whenever it's that much money headed to one
city yeah people are gonna follow suit that's that's just how it's always been um it's atlanta
on top of it like yeah and unfortunately it's you know it's people out. It's Atlanta on top of it. Yeah. And unfortunately,
you know,
it's people out there
with different agendas.
Some people out there
to have fun.
Some people out there
to try to get a come up.
You know what I'm saying?
And it's unfortunate
that sometimes you run
into that energy
and tragedy happens.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
But again,
prayers and condolences
to his family,
his friends.
Were these stories true
that I kept reading
about women not being able to get back home?
Of course they're true
because you see that all the time
with the spring break.
Yeah.
Why do they do that?
I'm just mad.
Shorty says, I need help getting back home.
I'm stuck in Atlanta.
She's trying to raise $1,300.
Where do you live?
Australia?
No, no.
The flights were expensive this weekend.
The flights were expensive.
They probably were.
$1,300 out of Atlanta?
Yeah.
I think a lot of these is just...
Oh, yeah.
No, she's at home already.
She's been...
She never even went to Atlanta.
Or she lives in Atlanta.
I went to Atlanta for All-Star Weekend with $400 only,
booked it one way because I was waiting on my unemployment
to pay my way back.
Oh, that's always the trick right there.
But they baited... But wait there but they baited but wait
but they baited i need help surviving and making back home to new york please anything will help
i really hope this young lady finds her way back home do we got an update no all right i mean i
hope she does safely as well but i do need some accountability that you went down to atlanta
all-star weekend with four hundred400 in a one-way ticket.
I don't have too much sympathy for you. You're an adult.
I mean, I hope she's safe.
Yes, of course. You can probably get a bus.
It'll take a while, but you shouldn't
be going out of state.
It sounds like I drove 17 hours. It wasn't bad.
I actually really enjoyed the drive.
I've done it in a car, but I've never done it in a bus.
Oh, no, no, no. Drove.
Yeah, not in a bus. I'm not that thirsty, no. Drove. Yeah, not in a bus.
I'm not that thirsty.
You shouldn't be going out to Atlanta for a weekend with $400.
Unless you got some people there taking care of you.
Yeah, but even then, no matter what, because of safety. I'm not going to pour shame.
No, I'm not pouring shame.
I can stupidly shame.
That was a poor decision.
You can have fun on $400 in Atlanta.
If you, in the right circumstance.
I'm saying from a-
If you got family or friends that are putting you up and-
See, this is that thing you do where-
No, don't do that part.
Why?
You should have-
I have definitely traveled to-
Okay, listen.
Hold on.
But you had a way to get back home already, though.
Yeah.
You are not-
That's all.
You wouldn't do that.
She didn't have a return flight. Like That's all. You wouldn't do that. She didn't have a return flight.
Like, come on.
You would never do that.
I promise you
I've been to a fun city before
with not much money on me.
But you had a return flight
or return way to get back home.
Then you wouldn't do that.
We're talking about this.
Not having a return flight.
Go somewhere for a minute
and bank on money
that's supposed to hit your account
in a few days.
That's what I'm saying.
Well, you know.
You wouldn't do that.
I probably wouldn't.
You can have $400 in your pocket, but you already have your flight secured.
Do men do that?
Tell me.
If I got somewhere to stay, I'll do that.
I've made some trips when I was broke, but safety and the idea that I always have a place to get back home.
I'll have my way to get back home.
Or at least have somewhere to stay for a week or two while I figure it out.
The last time I tried this, not me, but my crew, it was Atlanta All-Star Weekend. It had to be 03, 02, something like that. I think it out. The last time I tried this, not me, but Mike Fru, it was Atlanta All-Star Weekend.
It had to be 03, 02, something like that.
I think it was 03.
And they was out there.
They was out there, out there.
03, 04, somewhere around there.
No, I wasn't popping.
There was no singles, so it had to be 02.
Who knows?
And I called Dylan and was like, yo, they out here.
I had never seen nothing like that being from Jury City.
It was my first All-Star, shit like that. from Jury City it's my first all-star
shit like that
might have been my
first time in Atlanta
who knows
I was just about to say
if that was your first
time in Atlanta too
maybe
when you get down there
like wait
this place has existed
my whole life
what the fuck
I never went anywhere
until I had a record deal
like that was my first time
first time traveling
so yeah that might have
been my first time in Atlanta
I called dealing them
so fast
it was like yo
I don't care how y'all
get out of here but y' y'all Get out of here
But y'all need to get out of here
Them niggas hit the highway
Okay see
And that's fine
They hit the highway
Because you have a way
You have your car out there
Safely
I'm near
Y'all got money
We don't need to go too crazy
Worst comes to worst
You can stay in the car
Not say that they did that
Exactly
I've done that
But I had a place to go home
Like alright
I can get out of here
And you had a way to get home
That's what I'm saying
Yeah
You can go
You can have $400 to spend
That's what I'm saying
That's all I'm saying
But you better have that return
Way back home
Or somewhere where you can
Safely stay until you
Yeah
And I hate to make it a gender thing
But I also think
A woman
For safety reasons
That's bad to not have
A positive return home
Absolutely
In Atlanta
That's super dangerous
Super dangerous So I can stupidity shame Listen Alright If I was a woman positive return home absolutely in Atlanta on all-star weekend that's super dangerous super dangerous
so I can stupidity shame
listen
alright
if I was a woman
I wouldn't be in that predicament

I don't want to say it
but it did cross my mind
wait
what Aladdin had
a magic carpet rug right
I got a magic rug too
I bet you I get on
off this pussy
you can definitely get
an OnlyFans up and running
pretty quick.
Yeah, I would hope that.
You could do that
at Atlanta Airport.
I don't got a ticket.
I would get an OnlyFans.
There's a bathroom over here.
With mirrors.
I can get it popping.
You know, when you land at JFK,
even if you have a way home,
there's all those drivers
that's like, yo,
where you going?
You need a ride?
Need somewhere to go?
Got you for the cheap.

I'm yours.
I'm yours.
You want this?
I'm yours.
I can be with you for the night.
It's nice to meet you.
I'm yours.
I can be with you for the night.
But do you have tickets to New York?
That's crazy.
And I've definitely seen women steal money in the strip club when they weren't strippers.
Oh, yeah.
From under my foot.
Move.
I'm stepping on this for a reason.
Why are you under me?
It's only $4.
Can you get the fuck from underneath me?
Yeah, she's going to have to go home.
Go to Follies and let it go crazy.
Quickly, though, I saw that Fab was present
during the All-Star Day.
How many bars do you think Fab wrote in his head
about OB Toppin?
How many Fab OB Toppin bars happened
during that dunk contest?
Did he have the logo hat?
Probably.
I have a hilarious joke
I can't say.
Pussy.
Yeah.
I know.
That's my man.
That's my man.
What do you want me to do?
Oh, and don't let Fab
get the scheme
of kissing the rim
with the OB Toppin.
Fab gonna give y'all a freestyle soon.
No, he not.
No, he not.
What's wrong with you, man?
Don't tell him, Mo.
He heard it.
He listened to the show.
Man, if y'all think Fab is allowed to give you an OB topping metaphor like he used to.
I'm David.
Ain't no topping nothing.
Nobody's topping anything, buddy. He'll flip it into some ice cream sundae type. I'm dangerous Ain't no topping Nothing Ain't nobody Topping anything
But he'll flip it
Into some
Ice cream sundae
Family outing
Type of thing
So I posted
So before
The all star game
I posted some old clips
Of me and the fellas
Playing
Shooting some hoops
So the internet
Could get a good laugh
Of course Fab was under there
Getting a good laugh
And
Fab
You saw the two
Fritos he had, boy?
No.
Fab?
Oh, my God.
He had to take some of that.
He wasn't playing, though, right?
No, it was like a little competition.
He took two free throws, I think.
You can't hear ball free throw.
Yeah.
He walked out there on halftime.
So much for fabulous sport.
Yeah.
I ain't going to hold you.
Well, all that jewelry.
I don't know who's shooting this.
I don't know who the camera guy is.
Looking a lot like the Triller Jake Logan fight.
You're not wrong at all, actually.
I don't know if I'm bugging here, but that's how it looks.
We shot someone.
Oh, come on, Fab.
Come on, Fab.
That's not right, Fab.
That was top of the key, though.
But listen, man.
You know what I never thought of?
You shouldn't air ball from the top.
You shouldn't air ball.
And this is twice.
This is Wednesday.
I shouldn't even. I should be talking about something way more important than this.
The same way the game has evolved in the league, it's evolved on the streets.
Oh, yeah.
The kids are now taking step back threes, doing all this type stuff.
That's what happens.
They're doing what they see.
I'm out there jump hooking still.
No.
No.
The game has changed. That jump hook ain't going to be. That's out there jump hooking still. No. No. The game has changed. Trying to play the paint.
The game has changed.
That jump hook ain't going to get it no more.
It's still a score.
Yeah, but you're going to have to get another one.
It's two points.
You got to get a B move.
Yeah, you got to get a B move.
I got a B move.
Don't do that.
Get away from that jump hook.
Listen, when it's nice on Patreon, we're going to go shoot some hoops.
Absolutely.
I can't wait.
Listen, I mean, you and I, during this pickup game, did I?
You think we could take Jack Harlow and Quavo? Yes. I don't think so. Absolutely. I can't wait. Listen, I mean, you and I, during this pickup game, did I, you think we could take
Jack Harlow and Quavo?
Yes.
I don't think so.
Yes,
I do.
I don't think so.
1,000.
We're scrappy players.
Quavo.
You're going to get fouled.
Quavo.
That's going to happen.
I didn't see nobody
put a body on him.
Yeah,
you're getting fouled.
Yeah.
You're not getting 17 on me.
You're getting the elbow
to the fucking side.
Look at Joe.
Joe back at Joe. Joe back in jail.
Off the glass.
That's a textbook.
You can't teach that.
That was over the right shoulder.
What they going to do when you jump over the right shoulder?
They ain't ready for that.
Let me set this fit.
This is the wildest screen in history right here.
Oh, you ain't want the right.
You want the right.
That leg sweep.
He want the other one.
That leg sweep.
That leg sweep.
That leg sweep. Pardon me because of one. That leg sweep. That leg sweep. That leg sweep.
Pardon me,
because I'm like,
hey,
you know what I mean?
Quick bell.
Quick ball.
Quick ball.
To the ribs.
To the ribs.
Now you got a decision to make.
Play better D or fight me.
Yo,
why am I low lights
being shown right now?
You posted them.
No,
this is the highlight.
Missed layup, rebound, put it back.
Listen.
Yeah, that's a highlight.
What y'all want me to do, man?
No, that's basketball IQ right there.
Yeah.
Come on.
The court vision, crazy.
All right, let's get right into it, man.
Oprah interview with Prince Harry, Meghan Markle.
Markel.
Sorry, I didn't mean that.
Tea was spilled.
sorry I didn't mean that tea was spilt
it said that
Oprah was paid
somewhere between
seven and nine million
to license this interview
it's also said that
Meghan and Prince Harry
were paid
absolutely nothing
and in this interview
the tea was
Meghan says that
in the months
when I was pregnant
we have in tandem the conversation of he won't be given security.
He's not going to be given a title and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born.
Harry said it was not a conversation he ever wanted to discuss.
Megan says she had a clear and real and frightening thought about suicide while she was a working member of the royal family.
Harry said she did not receive any support from the royal family over her mental health, saying it was not a conversation to be had.
End quote.
End story.
I'm assuming that you gentlemen have either seen the interview or seen highlights from it.
So highlights.
And I watched the whole thing.
Same.
Because I honestly, this is going to sound ins highlights. I didn't watch that one. Yeah. Same. Because I honestly,
this is going to sound insensitive.
I don't care.
I mean,
I feel for Megan.
I really do.
I really,
really do.
And I mean that genuinely.
I think that's horrible.
And I think this happens
in a lot of families
in general
when it comes to
interracial dating
or things of that nature.
But
this family
is a shitty fucking
family. Nothing about this is surprising
to me. This is
the family that has the bloodline that
ruined this world. I don't
care. I don't. They're
horrible fucking people and that's how it's
going to be. There's nothing
shocking here. I think
it's cool that Harry left them. I think that's dope
on a moral level. but I'm not saying
he's brave. He fucking still
has his mom's inheritance. He can still do
that. There's way more problems
in the world than what the royal family
has already done to this world.
Okay, I like that.
Fuckers don't have health insurance. You think I want
to watch an Oprah interview about the royal
fucking family? Yeah, no.
I'm just being honest like
i know this has become a thing i don't care yeah i don't care i didn't care yes megan went into one
of the worst families in the history of the world yes i hope her mental health is is of course i i
know i care i care there i'm just saying that. Then that's care. If you care there, then that is care.
Yes, but to make this a number one priority in the world is just, fam, these are the worst people ever.
I understand what you're saying.
Like everybody in the hoopla over there.
Say it.
Let's just make it clear because he's taking a bold stance.
I hope Megan and Harry and the baby are great and fine.
Everyone's in great health.
Y'all care about that.
Y'all do.
That as a person.
And I think it's dope that Harry took that stance,
but I'm not going to give Prince Harry
all this fucking credit
that he made all these crazy moves.
You've never had a job.
You can make that move
when you have the inheritance
of an Illuminati level of money. Like, fuck
out of here. Cool. I think that's
dope that you did that for
your wife and that you stood on that stance. You said,
fuck your family when they ain't fucking around. That was honorable.
That's some real honorable shit. I love that. I think
that's amazing. But I'm not going to sit
here and give him all these fuck...
Oh my God. Wow, what a brave,
brave thing to do.
I'm not going to argue with Rory.
Both of them are going to be fine.
Good points.
I do feel like that's a contradiction.
They're both going to be fine.
No, I just know people that have real fucking problems.
Yeah.
Yeah, I get it.
Sorry.
I know people that have real fucking problems.
All right, we got Rory.
Rory just barged up.
I got nothing.
Yeah, I felt the same way.
I didn't rush to see the interview.
I still have my reservations
about just watching
and supporting anything Oprah.
But, you know,
I watched the highlights
and I understood what it was,
but I wasn't so shocked.
You know, people were shocked
that they were concerned
about the skin tone of the baby.
And I'm like,
they're still concerned
about my skin tone
and I'm a grown man in America where I'm from. And I'm like, they're still concerned about my skin tone,
and I'm a grown man in America where I'm from. So, you know, I didn't think that the royal family would be accepting
of a brown-skinned baby in their kingdom.
No, I didn't think so.
But that wasn't news to me.
You know what I mean?
And hearing her say she had suicidal thoughts and all of that,
that was like, damn.
And you care about that.
No, that 100%.
I was like, damn.
And you all care about that no that 100 i was like damn i don't care about that i just i'm just not shocked that the bloodline that slaughtered the native americans is shocked
that uh their baby would be dark-skinned when she's not even a dark-skinned woman yeah they're
ignorant fucking people that have had control on this world the same way we talk about duke when
we say if we would just shut the fuck up about them,
maybe some of the power would go away.
Of course, way different circumstances.
But the power that we give them
in this family,
and it's not even our fucking country,
is insane to me.
I agree.
Oprah, go fucking interview Biden.
I don't care about this. I don't care. Come on, man. I don't care about this.
I don't care.
Come on, man.
I don't care about this.
I know people without health insurance.
I don't care about this.
You guys are such men.
No, that's bars.
That's not man shit.
That is man shit because there are some aspects of this that you do care about.
Of course.
The fundamental experience that she had is terrible. shit because there are some aspects of this that you do care about of course okay so the fundamental
uh experience that she had is is terrible all right stop stop stop stop stop all right two
seconds just two seconds let me try to get my thoughts together i didn't know rory was coming
in so hot we have megan markel doing a sit-down interview to speak about something that the average consumer knows nothing about,
which is the role that the media plays in our mental health and us wanting to end it.
And just a plethora of things. Right. So I'm a mental health guy.
a plethora of things, right?
So, I'm a mental health guy.
You've got me there.
That is important.
I've admitted on this podcast of having extremely similar feelings
that this woman has had.
That feeling, for me,
is magnified
when you throw in
Princess Diana's bout with media
and the role they played in.
Everything, Princess Diana, I won't begin to speculate, but there are rumors about her demise and how it happened.
And even if you're not going off the rumors, the documented story of the role the media played in her demise
amplifies this story more and more for me three watching this right megan it brought me back to
uh that princess diana interview where she was basically saying the same thing for the people that are unaware i'll try to find
uh just a piece so i can play it right because it brought me right back to that
that deja vu was a little weird uh here we go here we go here we go
how many people i mean the establishment that I'm married into, because they've decided that I'm a non-starter.
It's an interview from a million years ago, Princess Diana talking about her experience within the...
Because I do things differently.
Establishment. Oh, what happened? I'm sorry.
Because I don't go by a rule book, because I lead from the heart, not the head.
And albeit that's got me into trouble in my work, I understand that.
But someone's got to go out there and love people and show it.
And do you think that because of the way you behave,
that's precluded you effectively from becoming queen?
Yes, well, not precluded me, I wouldn't say that.
I just don't think I have as many supporters in that environment than I did.
I don't have as many supporters in that environment as I once did.
You mean the Royal House?
Yes.
I'm just reading the subtitles as they come up.
This is eerily similar to the interview that I watched with the young lady.
Well, I think that's what Rory is saying.
It shouldn't be a surprise.
This is how they are.
The things that I'm saying are not speaking to anything being a surprise for anybody.
That part is well known and well documented.
The stuff I'm saying is just human feelings.
I'm not talking about the racism in a foundation that's racist.
Literally, England has wreaked havoc on the base of racism i'm only looking at
this through the eyes of awesome i'm only looking at this through the eyes of princess prince harry
who i who me and my family or anybody that's ever taught me about him never painted him to be one of
them really he always looked different he always moved different it was a different sauce it was
a different swag if you if you grew up you know he wasn't like his brother it looked he was he was in the streets
and buying the streets i mean he was out in these clubs wilding new princess diana wasn't really
with the regime you was gonna watch him growing up so i'm not looking through those eyes i'm
looking through the eyes of this young lady who we all watched in suits, met a dude, fell in love, and that's it.
It's not a whole lot of extras when you fall in love with somebody.
I love you, and this is what we doing.
How they handled it, how both of them handled it,
which was a big thing on whatever the morning show over there is.
That was the big discrepancy is, hey, they're talking about the media, but the media on their wedding day was awesome.
And the young lady was saying, yeah, but the media up until that was horrific.
The media after that was horrific.
So I'm looking at it through those eyes and I commend them for how they handled it.
I commend them for how they handled it, what they had to go up against, because I don't imagine it to be easy for Prince Harry to tell his whole royal family, yo, suck my dick, I'm out.
I don't imagine it for him to be easy to fight that fight on the strength of his significant other.
Like, I just imagine it to be really difficult.
Yeah, I don't care that the family's racist.
To Rory's point, we knew that already. But I certainly care about how they're treating this essentially white passing woman.
Because she could pass for white.
She could.
And now this is turning into a colorism conversation as it goes on.
But she can pass for white.
And they still said, hey, how that baby coming out?
Like, so,
yeah, Rory.
Which speaking from a white person.
Let me just get this out.
So Rory can feel that way.
But for us,
whoa,
you taking this white lady
and you questioning
the little bit of black
that this baby could come out with.
Stark reminded that it don't matter how light you are that's the point i was gonna make
that's how deep racism is so if so if i care about that you could look you could look like a white
person but if you have any type of shit that isn't white that's how deep this shit go and if i care
about those things which i do then i care about how it affects people that aren't attached
to the establishment which today would be prince harry and megan markel and i'm not saying i don't
care about that that i care about well that's why this is interrupting you because when you say
yo i don't care about shit like it's blanket this this is a story that happens with so many people, not just in the United States, in the entire world.
Tell me why that family is royal.
Like, I could take it way deeper to why this should not fucking matter.
It matters the topic that we're talking about.
Where a family would look at someone that may date someone outside another race and feel a way and treat her shitty.
That's something I care about all day.
Right.
The fact that we're making a story for them,
for this family, is my issue.
That's why I don't care.
Fuck this family.
Go figure out why they're the royal family.
Right.
Go research.
I get it.
Fuck them.
Fuck them Fuck them
Let's not talk about it
I'm not mad at that
Leave it the fuck alone
We could talk about the issue all day
I'm with you
But they're not the only people
That go through this
I'm glad it could be highlighted
That this is a thing
But we all know this is a thing
I didn't need Oprah to tell me
This is a thing
I know it's a thing
This family is the worst family ever
Fuck them
Stop talking about
them. But in speaking about the issue, I'm not really speaking about the family. No, no. They're
talking about the family. You and I right now are talking about the issue. I'm talking about Harry
and Meghan for me. You and I are talking about the issue. And racism and all that they maybe had to
go through and exalting. You just said Oprah made $7 million off this. This is about the family.
It ain't about the issue.
You think Oprah's making $7 million talking about this issue or talking about this family?
It's definitely the family.
But Oprah's $7 million is the least of my concerns.
What Rory is saying is it goes back to because it's about the family.
It's about the family.
This has nothing to do with the real issue.
It's about the family. i understand what he's saying and i'm not gonna i'm not gonna uh offer
him push back on his stance on his family come on i'm not doing that but before this story ever
existed i had empathy for britney spears when we watched that sure so like od i can't yeah i can't
be the guy that's that has empathy for brit Britney Spears for what she went through with the media and then turn around and hear this story.
This had nothing to do with royalty, Maul.
If it were Joe and my mom died because Papa Rossi was chasing her and then I had an issue with Papa Rossi and I brought it to my unroyal mom and dad or unroyal family
and they had an adverse
reaction to it, it's beef.
Forget royalty. Forget racism.
I'm putting me
in the shoes of, damn, that's
nuts, nuts, nuts, nuts, nuts, nuts.
Yeah, no, for sure it is. I'm separating it.
Some of us rocked with Princess Diana
differently, rocked with me and we could tell
she was a little different.
She was a hippie by those standards.
And then 20 years, 30, however many years later, you see your kid go through the same exact thing with media and your family do absolutely nothing to stop it from a humanity standpoint.
I feel for that.
I don't care about Oprah here.
I don't care about what she got paid.
I don't care about none of that.
care about what she got paid i don't care about none of that listen as as much lesser dudes i've had to save allegedly save my girl from shit that was much softer than this and it was tough we've
all been in a bind where our girl felt the way about something and we had to stand up i cannot
imagine being in this position that's the only reason that I throw the royal family in there. Because, wow,
what a lot to resist against.
That's it.
Okay, so you're not separating them,
and that's where our difference is.
I separate my empathy for Megan.
I really do have empathy for it.
I can only have empathy.
I don't understand it.
I can just try to sympathize
with what's going on.
I can separate that
to see the spectacle that's going on in the can separate that to see the spectacle
that's going on
in the sense that
I don't think anyone cares
about the real issue.
They're making a spectacle
because of who it is.
Side note,
the way this quote unquote
Kim and Kanye divorce is going,
I thought they've handled amazing.
I want to push that.
They've made no spectacle about it.
Let me just offer this because
there's real issues divorce is a real issue what they're going through a lot of people go through
all the time when it comes to interracial dating it's not a spectacle to make money off of like
when you starting with the seven million with the oprah shit that's what bothers me and it
bothers me because i know the family is fucked up so So, yes, I sit here and love what Megan is going through in bringing attention to that ordeal.
I love that that is trying to be highlighted.
But it's not.
They're doing this for bread.
It's the royal fucking family.
I love that this idea could be brought up.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Let's have some tact here.
Who was doing that for bread? Megan and Harry? No. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's have some tact here. Who was doing that for bread?
Meghan and Harry?
No.
Oh, God, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
God, no.
Okay.
No, no, no.
No, of course not.
Oprah.
Oprah.
Agreed.
Okay.
NBC.
Everything that is done around the royal family
has been for bread recently.
I don't know if y'all have been paying attention to what they've been doing it's bread it's all bread it's nasty
okay i'm following you which is why i support them for leaving for it i just i do not
but this is not a main thing for me i don't why this is getting so but why this is such a big
deal and why this is getting so much attention is because of the position that Harry and Meghan took.
And I love them for taking it.
Yeah, we know the family is racist.
That's fire they took that sentence.
Yeah, we know this is the worst family in the world.
Been on it like this for years.
Cool.
We've been knowing that.
We've never seen anybody pick up and say,
you know what? I'm out.
I'm going to escape this racism by going
to America.
No, we've never seen it.
Which is ass.
Which is ass.
Which is ass backwards.
Canada has racism.
I'm not denying that.
But I'm just saying, we have never seen that bold a stance from people that were active members.
So we thought of A, not them, but any royal family.
So that's why it's news.
And that's why these people are fucking mongering toward the story.
I guess my outrage comes to the value of the royal family
and why this matters more.
Because their stance was amazing
and I'm glad they did it.
And yes, it shows everyone that
through hundreds of years
with this family,
I can leave it.
But my issue is with
the structure of that
and the value that
we're putting on the royal family.
And the value we put on england i'm not trying to
shit on england but the way england has ruined this whole entire world we value this royal family
that's not even really the government in there anymore right why is this a thing fuck that family
so we should stop valuing this that's i guess that's my overall point stop valuing this
that's
I guess that's my
overall point
stop valuing this
family
I agree
but definitely
you know
we
we have
empathy
with Harry
Meghan
and their child
of course
of course
and I'm sure
I'm sure I've
sounded nuts on here
I'm sure I'm gonna get killed
but
no I think you actually
sounded nuts
Ireland has been
trying to
I think you're just
fighting an independent
point I don't think you sound nuts and saying, Ireland has been trying to- I think you're just fighting an independent point.
I don't think you sound nuts
and saying fuck the family.
I think I sound nuts,
but I'm just an Irish person
that has hated England forever
in my household.
We've been trying to tell y'all
England's been shitty forever.
And maybe I'm just
taking it out on y'all.
No, but what you're saying
is real though.
I got family that's still
fucking with North Ireland.
It's not a thing of, I just didn't like, you know, people acting like this was such a shocker.
That's what I was looking at.
Yeah, but I don't like the women.
I don't like the women online, women in particular, that are saying, I'm not, I have no empathy for Megan because you knew the family you was marrying into when you fell for Duke.
Well, that's nasty.
That's not fair. That's Duke. That's not fair.
That's not fair. That's not fair at all.
No. Okay. You can't not be surprised that her family
met her with that energy, but you
can't, if you fall in love with dude,
I'm not falling in love with your family. I love you.
Right. Yeah, that's, no, that's not fair. That's not
fair at all.
We have a statement issued
by Buckingham Palace on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen.
And I think it's important to note that Oprah did follow up and say that it wasn't the queen who allegedly made the statements or the questions about Archie.
So?
It says the whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging.
Oh, the whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging. Oh,
the whole family is sad.
We moved and can't get away from it.
The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the
last few years have been for Harry and Megan.
The issues raised,
particularly that of race are concerning.
While some recollections may vary,
they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the
family privately
Harry, Megan and Archie will always
be much loved family members
the end
ends
oh thanks well thank god we got a statement
cleared everything up
hey man that's why we whooped
their ass in that war.
You know what I'm saying?
Then they became
our ally again.
Anyways.
Piers Morgan
walked off set.
Good morning, Britain.
I have a confession to make.
I didn't hear it,
so I'm asking y'all
what happened
there's another Pierce
this dope
right
it's not
it's Pierce Brockman
it's not Pierce Morgan
what's the other Pierce
that's Pierce
Pierce
who's the dope one
Pierce Brosnan
yeah
that's the actor
when I hear Pierce
he pops up
and he's great looking
fly
and then it's like
and then it's like
some doofy shit that Piers Morgan does.
I'm like, all right, wait.
This is not my cool guy.
They're not Piers.
It's a shot.
It's a shot, man.
I like that.
It's a shot.
That was kind of hard.
I ain't going to lie.
It's a shot.
It was a good one.
I like it.
That was kind of hard.
It's a shot, man.
That was kind of hard.
Piers.
That was kind of hard that was kinda hard
that was hard
okay
did he lie
what did
just tell me
what did the guy do
he walked off the set
right
cause he was being
pressed about
his commentary
on the whole matter
yeah
cause he's been
rapping for the family
and saying they're not racist
and Harry and Meg
should shut the fuck up
but Piers Morgan is racist
yeah Harry and Meg should shut the fuck up. But Piers Morgan is racist.
Yeah.
Racist trying to tell other racists
they're not racist.
I think that's usually
how it goes.
What, you about to call them?
Plugged in?
No, I'm not going to call them.
But they,
and that's why I love the internet.
They found a clip of
Piers Morgan saying he went out on a date with Meghan
and got curved.
And that's why the commentary's been so foul.
We had two hours in the pub.
She had a couple of dirty martinis and a couple of pints.
We got on brilliantly.
And then I put her in a cab, and it turned out to be a cab
that took her to a party where she met Prince Harry
And then the next night they had a solo dinner together, and that was the last I ever heard from Meghan Markle
I have never heard from her again
So what happened?
She ghosted me, Ryan
Meghan Markle ghosted me
Did she? Do you think she just went
I'm afraid, I really liked her
She took a cab and met her husband.
I really liked her.
Yeah, I don't know if that's Cap.
He really liked her.
I bet he did.
He put her in the cab.
She met Princess Harry.
Princess.
Prince Harry.
And never spoke to him again.
And now he's killing in the commentary.
Yeah, sounds about right.
Sounds about right.
He stormed off when they pressed him.
Get him the fuck off the set.
Good.
Don't need to hear from him anymore. i ask how did they press him what were the questions i didn't see this part i just saw the this is day two uh so yesterday
they had a panel on and the panel disagreed with everything he had to say about the whole ordeal
and they pressed him on it uh in particular
uh uh a lady who was just grilling him i have it here somewhere but she was like
she said fam you're contradictory you're highlighting some stuff you're leaving out
the other stuff the family is racist this is what they did this is what y'all did and y'all okay
with it the media is still continuing to do this So this was day two, and you could kind of feel it.
This was the start of the show where they're right back on that topic.
I imagine this to be a big deal over there.
For sure.
And they had a brother on, and the brother didn't care that, you know,
he didn't care that that was Pierce.
Yeah, he got his shit off.
And Pierce walked off.
And announced that he's leaving the show.
Is that true, he's leaving the show?
Yeah.
Aw.
Damn.
I'm going to miss him every morning while I'm watching the BBC or whatever this is on.
You watch BBC's every morning?
I do not.
On Tuesday, Morgan faced criticism.
BBC's actually all right.
Yeah, BBC.
It's actually more of the objective news you can watch.
On Tuesday, Morgan faced criticism from his own colleague.
One of the more.
Go ahead.
Before I say you're dead ass right, we need to look into the origin of the BBC as well.
That I won't argue.
Don't Google it.
Don't Google BBC.
Please.
I understand that you, Morgan, don't like Meghan Markle.
You've made it clear a number of times in this program.
Said good morning, Britain co-host Alex Beresford.
And I understand that you've got a personal relationship with Meghan Markle
or had one and she cut you off, he added.
Has she said anything about you since she cut you off?
I don't think she has, but yet you continue to trash her.
At that point, Morgan got up and while walking off set said,
okay, I'm done with this, sorry.
No, sorry, see you later, sorry, can'm done with this. Sorry. No, sorry.
See you later.
Sorry.
Can't do this.
And that's that on that.
He walked out.
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.
Cry, baby.
Whatever, man.
Yeah.
And that's that.
Oh, well.
Prayers again to Harry.
Prayers to everyone involved.
Harry, Megan, and the son.
I don't think Megan said anything about Pierce Morgan.
Has Megan said anything about anybody?
No. Like up until about anybody? No.
Like up until this point?
No.
Shorty been quiet minding her business.
And they still didn't press Duke.
I'm saying Duke, but he might really be the Duke.
He might be the Duke.
He might be the Duke of York.
They still didn't press Duke of York about his role in any of the,
what's my man's name? That's not your man.
It's definitely not your man.
The Jeffrey Epstein debacle.
We never heard from him in there. Andrew is a
nasty fuck from now on. Look at his face.
His whole family looks nuts, honestly.
Yeah.
Are they inbred? Of course.
Well, there you go.
Look, alright guys, just do your research
on the royal family.
And find Woody Allen woody allen disgusting yeah find woody allen and arrest him he won't go to the nick game they looking good too ain't they joe he will not come see the boys right used to
be at all the games ain't seen spike yet yeah yeah nowhere that damn woody allen man on another
episode i'm gonna talk about how sick some of these
I won't call them white crimes
but
I feel like white people
birthed them
they would have never let
one of us do that
Woody Allen shit
back in the 1700s
or whenever that came up
they would have killed us
that was like the 90s
no
not the Woody Allen shit
the birth of that crime.
Yeah, no, they'd have killed our asses.
I'm rushing
home to watch episode 3 of
Alan vs. Farrell. Oh, you watched
3 yet? No, no, no.
I didn't see it at all. It's a disgusting watch.
It's tough to watch.
It is. It's tough to watch.
Period. Episode 2 was real tough for me.
My mom warned me about episode 2 and it was still tough to watch. You said what 2 was real tough for me. My mom warned me about episode 2
and it was still tough to watch.
Get a backstory of somewhat of what
happens in it.
Woody Allen is a nasty, nasty
man who
Woody Allen married Mia Farrow,
another really famous actress.
She was adopting kids and they
had some kids and Woody Allen
was hitting on the kids and fondling the kids.
And molesting the kids.
Marrying the kids and molesting the kids and raping the kids.
And somehow he's not underneath the jail, I don't think.
He's not underneath the jail.
And he's not in Bali.
To our knowledge.
To our knowledge.
To our knowledge.
And my question becomes, why is he allowed to steal?
That whole family shit is...
Google the whole family while you're watching this shit, because there's...
You were telling me some interesting stuff about it.
Please.
Yeah, like her...
Apparently, Mia Farrow's brother, not that this is directly related, but it's interesting,
is her brother was arrested for child molestation.
That's interesting to me.
And one of her sons, in the film, they talk about...
He was... molestation. That's interesting. And one of her sons in the film, they talk about, um,
he was,
you know, him and Woody were like,
he looked up to Woody a million percent.
That's my father.
I love him.
I followed him everywhere.
Type shit.
When the allegations came out,
or maybe when the Sunni marriage thing came out,
he said,
I hate you.
You disappointed me.
Blah,
blah.
I disowned you as my father type of thing.
Yeah.
Now,
years later is a therapist for adopted children
and says that Mia was abusing and making them,
there was some sexual shit in there,
making them be naked or something,
and that now he was wrong about saying all that shit about Woody
and he believes Woody and Woody didn't do the shit.
I don't know what the fuck to believe.
Two kids say that he's nasty.
Two kids say that he's cool.
And several of the other adopted children are dead now.
It's fucking weird.
I'm not,
I'm not rolling with what he's cool.
I know he's not,
he's definitely not cool.
He married his stepdaughter.
That's fucking weird.
Yeah.
You're not cool. I know he's not. He's definitely not cool. He married his stepdaughter. That's fucking weird. Yeah. You're not cool.
Yeah.
No matter how you slice it,
you're not cool.
There's more interesting things
behind this as we just said.
I'm going to wait to watch this
in its entirety.
But from what they've showed so far,
and again,
I've only seen two episodes,
boy, is Mia Farrow complicit in this.
Bro.
I'm not gonna say
that because I can't put myself in her shoes to know what she was dealing with or battling with
having that type of husband or man in the house but I can't imagine a situation in which you walk
and in on your spouse doing inappropriate things with your children on more than one occasion and continue to have a relationship
or allow them access to your children on any level or to not kill them i mean yes on another level
right but you can see it when you watch it but you can see it when you watch it you get you get
how power comes into play but yeah no doubt the thing is the thing about that angle that I find interesting at least
is that she wasn't not powerful
she came from a family of Hollywood
actors and filmmakers and she was
a prominent actor before she met
Woody
I don't have
children but I don't think power is going to matter
to me
in episode 1 I want to say that
I'm sorry we're going
let me just be clear Woody Allen is a nasty man no matter how you slice it Power is going to matter to me. In episode one, I want to say that. I'm sorry, we're going.
Let me just be clear.
Woody Allen is a nasty man no matter how you slice it because he married his fucking stepdaughter.
In episode one, she was speaking to the fact that, yes,
she had some gigs, but she always felt like she wouldn't have had
anywhere near the career that she did without him
and without him casting her in these roles.
I think they went on a run when they were married.
13 movies straight.
13 movies straight, which was unheard of.
So, yeah, she might have had a career, but I'm talking about how she felt about that career and sustaining it long term.
I don't know if she felt the greatest about it.
Maybe not.
And I'm saying that's not an excuse.
Power's not an excuse when it comes to protecting your children.
I don't have children, but yeah.
Protect your kids.
Fuck your career.
That whole family is very strange and weird,
and I don't know what the fuck's going on over there.
It's what I've come away with.
Granted, we still, I think, I don't know how many episodes it is.
We're only through three.
There's still more to learn.
There's a lot of weird shit happening over there.
Do you believe in human sacrifice?
Do you believe it's a thing somewhere?
Yeah,
no,
I think it's an active thing that happens very often.
Yeah.
Do we know who started that?
I think it's been around since the dawn of time.
Damn near.
Yeah.
I think that goes along with,
uh,
the people that actually run this country.
And I'm not trying to go back to the royal family shit.
But yeah, I think it all goes back to that.
We don't need to.
I'm only bringing it up to say, if you believe in that, then how could you say?
Hold on.
Because people are...
Believe in it as in know it to exist.
Some of our listeners are stupid.
Yes.
I believe it exists.
I don't believe in doing it.
Of course not.
But if you believe it to exist,
and then we have this story here.
We have this powerful man marries in to family with mad kids,
and now he's doing what he's doing, being a nasty man in there,
but dangling opportunities over the mom.
Yeah, you could say that she's complicit,
but couldn't you understand
how one could end up complicit in that?
If you believe in human sacrifice.
Well, she said...
No, I'm not saying it couldn't exist
in what she did with everything.
I'm saying fuck out of here.
Protect your children.
Oh, okay.
Well, no argument for me.
That's all.
No argument for me.
She's just adopting more children.
All I was saying,
protect your kids.
But,
it's,
it's,
this shit is fucking weird, man.
It's weird.
It's some weird,
rich,
white Hollywood elite shit.
It's not your normal optic.
It's definitely like,
you look at it and you like.
It's a tough watch.
Yeah.
It is.
It is a tough watch
you got to have the stomach for it they're adopting these poor children from vietnam with
you know uh physical disabilities blind children handicapped children and all this crazy nasty
shit's going on i don't this is fucking weird we're saying it's it's not normal but anytime
it comes to elitists and people in certain positions, it seems to be a pattern.
And of course I live with,
we should know the evidence of things,
but I also am subscribed to,
if it continues to be talked about all the time amongst every single elite
person,
maybe there's some truth we should look into at least.
And it seems to be a thing.
And I don't want to like.
Once I find the naked pictures of my kid in your crib.
You're dying.
You're dead.
Lights out.
Yeah.
It's not a.
Lights out,
niggas.
Jigga.
What's my motherfucking name?
It's over for you.
In the timeline.
That wasn't even like the beginning.
He was sucking her.
She was.
He was making the kids suck the thumbs and laying in bed naked and all this shit.
What the fuck do you mean it got all the way to this?
Yeah, no.
It's crazy.
This shit is weirdo shit.
That is some weird, nasty shit going on over there. I just think it's a little more common than we make it seem.
Maybe.
That's the problem.
I don't want to tread the QAnon waters, but...
Wait, what's he saying is common?
And I don't subscribe to QAnon.
I've made those jokes of QAnon on this podcast a lot.
But do I think that there's some validity to that?
Sure.
I don't know what y'all talking about.
So, cueing on the underlying, I guess, theme is that there are elite Hollywood or rich people that eat children.
The deep state kind of thrives and lives off children.
Correct.
And, again, I live in the evidence world.
I'm not going to put anything on anyone,
but it seems to be a trend with every really powerful person.
I'm not talking about celebrities.
I'm talking about a real powerful fucking person.
It seems to be a thing.
I'm not sure that I would lump Woody Allen in the real powerful person category.
No, no, I'm not.
This ain't a Woody Allen thing I'm talking about.
This is just some nasty fucking shit. This is just some nasty fucking shit.
This is just some nasty weird shit.
There's a theme with the Jeffrey Epstein world.
I'm not putting him with the royal nasties, but he was powerful.
But he wasn't even at the time like George Lucas.
He wasn't making huge fucking crazy movies with a billion dollars.
He's a fucking molester and rapist.
I had a couple
in my neighborhood.
that get some of this off.
I was going to say,
we know people
that aren't anywhere near
as powerful as Woody Allen
that are nasty on us.
I had a molester
on my block.
Sure.
This was a thing.
You want to go get him?
I think he's long gone.
And it wasn't Father O'Neal
for all your jokes.
You didn't make sure, huh?
He didn't catch me.
He didn't.
I was quick.
I ran track.
But you didn't confirm. You didn't confirm he was off the block i think he's gone let's not laugh
at this let's just get out of here let's just get on out of here you're right you're right
yeah i'm just saying some of these conversations man like it's tough to have with my parents
it's like i know you love me a pharaoh but I'm watching this and I'm
like that's my mind sound about mind work
your mind sounds trash you know what hope you guys enjoyed this two hours to
go two hours just getting started I know to go. We're just getting started.
I know the sun is down.
It's going to get lighter.
All right, so let's move on.
Wait, what was that?
What was that?
Oh, we were talking about Woody Allen.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, let's come to America.
Let's come to America.
Podcast.
Yeah, it'll be less racist there.
All right, coming to America.
Come on.
Part two.
We avoided it long enough.
We here now. Coming to America. I see what you two. We avoided it long enough. We here now.
Coming to America.
Didn't we talk about it?
No, no,
Rory.
We did not talk about it.
No,
we talked about it amongst each other.
We talked about it amongst each other,
but we didn't.
Okay,
that was it.
We wanted people to have their weekend to see.
Y'all gonna say it's trash or what?
Oh,
and before we get into coming to America,
the couch
at Bridget and Mandy's podcast
is fucking phenomenal.
I have no bad problems.
Yeah, I could lean back
and chill.
Everyone's like,
look at his broad shoulders.
I'm trying to keep
my lower back
from cracking in half
from this couch
of seven years
of this podcast.
We'll take care of that.
We'll take care of that.
Can we just get a couch?
HR's going to take care of it.
We're looking into it.
Don't worry about it.
We're investigating this.
I mean, if we're going
to stay here,
I listened to the little pod
on the way,
on the air, on the flight.
I mean, of course you did. It was me.
I wasn't. You had no choice. Did you like it?
Did you like what Rory had to offer to the ladies?
Didn't really. Didn't really? Damn.
No, he was great. He was, and thank you.
He was awesome. Of course. But I mean,
he went on there talking about how pod is not his passion, you know? I did, but
I've said that to you plenty of times. How you just
hear.
Mm-hmm. I did, but I've said that to you plenty of times. Just here.
I was on the plane feeling away.
I'm sure it was a man.
He said, potting outside of this pod.
I said, creating a bunch of other podcasts to build a network was not
my passion.
That makes a difference.
You know Joe's going to change what you actually said.
No, he actually said, no, potting is not my passion and then after
that was finished and the girls looked at him like hey what how could that be he's like no no no no
i don't mean us i don't take a sip no you know why because i don't mean oh rory doesn't look at
this as potting this is kicking no no no no. You guys are my passion. Aw. Thank you, man. You guys.
Thank you.
Not podcasting.
He's passionate about us, guys.
We just happen to podcast.
Got you.
My friends are my passion.
What Drake said, I always have my friends on my mind.
Right.
Are you passionate about Alex, too?
But you know what?
Real quick to end.
Rory, shut the fuck up.
No one thought that part was weird.
But before we end this, because a lot of fans, again, in their new trend of shitting on Joe for everything.
He pulled it back.
That is one.
No, they've been said that.
Are you a victim?
One of the things that, no, fuck them, niggas.
But one of the things that they kill me for is,
yo, anytime he's discussing good news,
Rory and Maul look so sad.
Like, why he don't start a pod with them?
Why he don't just, he got a net he don't just we got a net we have a
no no i have a network so why don't i develop pods for you guys you especially and i never respond
and say do y'all know rory has told me mad times he hates podcasting yeah he doesn't want to do
another podcast he hates all other podcasters. That's just not in his
wheelhouse. And you wouldn't say it
and I wouldn't say it, so I just keep getting killed.
So I'm glad it's finally out there. Rory, don't give a fuck about
potting or you guys.
How did that get to that?
Now, now there's some of that heat can get
off of me. Jesus.
Where were we? Coming to America.
Two.
Coming to the number two. Coming to America. Two. Coming to. Coming.
The number two.
To America.
Hopefully everyone has had a chance to see it by now.
If not, spoiler alert.
I'm sure we'll probably spoil some spoilers.
Spoiler alert.
Timestamp.
Fast forward.
They were in America.
We won't hold it against you.
Now, I've been struggling to find ways around saying it's trash.
Y'all a pussy. We love Eddie, but this wasn't it. I didn't hate it, man. I saying it's trash. Tell a pussy.
We love Eddie, but this wasn't it.
I didn't hate it, man.
I didn't hate it.
Oh, no.
I wasn't trying to spare Eddie.
We've been talking to Amazon for like the last nine months about business.
Oh, no.
The production of it.
Oh, listen.
The platform.
The release.
It's such a community.
It's such a family over there. It's like a family. Oh, my God, man. It's such a family over there.
It's like a family.
It's like a family over there.
It's like family.
Nah, nah, for real.
It's like extended family.
Crystal clear audio.
The mix.
The mix.
It's extended family over there.
Don't look at those graphics.
Yeah, extended family.
We've been talking to Amazon for a while, right?
Even if we weren't in business with them,
they have all of our address and personal data,
so we should be nice to them.
But I mean, it's mad Amazon.
Amazon Studio, Amazon
Music, Amazon
Prime. It's mad Amazon. You don't want to get
any of them mad.
Because they'll come to your house.
Because they own the country. Sell your fucking
date off.
Specifically, boom! Take that.
What if Jeff Bezos was petty?
What if he just grabbed the walkie-talkie
to transmit to every
Amazon driver,
hey, everyone, visit this address
every other
10 minutes. Drop all their cheap furniture.
Just throw shit at the door.
Just pull up and throw apples at the door.
What would you do?
Amazon, I can kill you! They would win. just throw shit at the door. Just pull up and throw apples at the door. What would you do? Ah, Amazon!
Yeah.
I can kill you!
They would win.
Yeah.
Listen.
They would win.
Now you got to talk to your fucking little gated community
fucking desk office.
Hey, don't let Amazon in anymore.
You can't buy from Amazon.
It's horrible.
So do I want to go through all of that
for shitting on this movie?
Of course.
I want to return.
Of course I do.
I want to return a package at the actual
Amazon shit in Elizabeth, New Jersey
because it was easier and there was no
cars in the big ass parking lot. I walk in and
drop the package off.
1,500 people in the back. Looked like
Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. I got a little
nervous. Why is there no
cars in the parking lot and this many people
here?
They live there. I'll ask you guys again.
That's what I was thinking.
I'll ask you guys again
because I've been asking
for months.
Who asked for this movie?
No,
the people definitely did.
Which people?
The people that were fans
of Coming to America.
Was I part of people?
I'm a huge fan
of Coming to America.
Maybe not now,
but at one point
everybody did want to see a sequel to this. I'm going sure you wanted a sequel. Maybe not now, but at one point, everybody did want to see a sequel.
I'm going to offer some pushback on that.
I've heard Arsenio and anybody else that did an interview say,
yo, we all made a pact that we would never do a sequel.
I've heard everybody say that.
That may be true, but I'm saying people did want to know what happened.
If they were saying that, I ain't damn sure they didn't want a sequel.
No, people definitely wanted to know what happened once they got married.
Listen, I figured you would offer some of that. I figured you i figured you would push back on that i have
another point for you i got another point for you if let's say who's a big famous respected
rapper jay-z never would have saw that coming if jay-z starts calling up all the lesser accomplished rappers not to knock the
other rappers he's just so accomplished right if he starts calling all the rappers to say hey i
need a solid from you i imagine them to do it without an invoice i also imagine eddie murphy
to be way bigger in comedy than hov is to rap, if that's possible.
Probably on the same level.
Yeah.
I'll go with that.
Yeah.
If Eddie Murphy calls all of the comedians that grew up to him.
Which is all of them.
And says, yo, I need you on this day at this time for something real quick.
Especially for something like a classic. Come through.
Come into America, too.
You know the vibes.
I had Exclusive Game make all the outfits.
Like, we're rocking now.
Shout out to Exclusive Game, and I don't think he made the outfits.
You're going to do that without sending an invoice.
So I read that Amazon paid $100 million for the streaming rights to this.
Hey, cool.
There's streaming wars going on
mad different platforms streaming shit you got to do what you got to do to keep audience on your
shit right watching this where did it go who got that 100 million that's my next question to you
not um i'm listening who got it a bit of a rhetorical question. Well, let me continue.
All right, well, let me continue.
Okay.
We gave two million to Rick Ross to film in his house.
Excellent.
No, he left.
We filmed most of it in his house.
And when we left, we just had a studio.
And I know that because I know what Jamaica Ave looks like.
And it doesn't look like Los Angeles. and there's not a Fashion Nova store there
no there's not
so
hey
even the CGI with the lions
I thought that was a little cheap
I thought it was bad CGI
I've seen a realer lion
I've seen a realer lion in that
and
and
I got crackheads right now that. I've seen a realer lion in that. And, and,
I got crackheads right now
that if I gave them
a hundred million,
they would have lions
come perform for me.
Easy.
They would rob
the Bronx Zoo.
It wouldn't be
nobody left in there.
You think they need
a hundred million?
No.
No, I don't.
They don't.
A hundred bucks.
I'll have that lion
on your porch tomorrow,
buddy.
Which is why I'm a little confused as to why these lions look so fake and trash.
You know what my main gripe with this was?
It's coming to America.
They were in America for seven hours.
He found his son that he'd never seen
never met before
off of a sketch
he didn't have to look for him
he didn't have to look for him either
as soon as he thought
yo I should look for my kid
he found his kid
and when does that ever happen?
but why are y'all looking
for so much realism
in coming to America?
no I just wanted them to be more
like they were back in Queens
but I do
I agree
I didn't want them to spend
as much time as they did
in Zamunda
like you know what I mean?
That was my only thing with it.
If it's coming to America,
let it be...
In America.
In America.
Let it be you back in America.
They took the exact storyline
from Black Panther
and tried to modernize it somehow.
It really was the exact same story.
A kid that I didn't know
I had come through now
this family i didn't fuck with over here gotta say something like and let's be clear i'm not
comparing it i didn't expect it to be as good or better than the first my expectations were
in the dirt i looked at this movie as if this was the first of its kind that's how i went into
watching it like this is the first and even as that as that, it just wasn't that good for me.
I found it mildly entertaining
and my expectations were really low.
The first 30 minutes were awful.
But then towards the end,
it was like, all right.
It was some funny moments.
It's the worst thing I've ever seen.
Yeah, so it was some funny moments.
If Amazon...
Tiana looked great.
Tiana looked amazing.
Leslie Jones and Tracy Morgan
were very funny.
It was great seeing all of our black cultural icons.
It was great.
What was the dude from SNL?
Colin Jost?
Colin Jost was funny in the little short role that he had.
There's a lot of funny roles.
Listen, it was an all-star cast and an all-star lineup.
I just thought that the storyline fell a lot short.
lineup i just thought that the storyline fell a lot short um and i just would have liked this to be treated more like the classic that it was and for me i didn't walk away feeling like that
like amazon paid 100 million right why are we taking money from frisky's cat food
spotify i'm asking the line the fake lion licked the cage. We didn't know why
he was licking the cage. And then they showed
us that they put cat food on the cage
and they showed us the can. They put it right in front of the camera
like I do with Erickson sometimes.
We need to
take money from Friskies,
Fashion Nova, and
seven other people for product placement
in coming to America. Tell me
both of those go together.
If that's the rollout for a real fashion store,
a bunch of make-or-have, that'll kill.
Was this movie produced before the deal?
I don't know.
Maybe they were using the sponsors to fund the movie
until they got the deal?
Yeah, that would make sense to me.
I could see that.
I'm not sure, though.
Maybe.
That's a bad idea.
Maybe. I'm not talking though. Maybe. That's a bad idea. Maybe.
I'm not talking about how you get money.
I'm just talking about having such blatant, obvious product placements in a movie like
Coming to America with a star like Eddie Murphy.
Eddie Murphy also looked like he ain't spoke to nobody in this movie in 50 years.
He looked like, get Arsenio away from me.
I don't care about that shit that was cool
well i'm pretty sure a lot of them he hasn't he's never even met before that way in this film
there was quite a few people in this film i'm sure he has he met for the first time doing this film
i heard them say fleek in this movie 15 minutes and 20 minutes maybe not even
shout out to my guy kenya uh kenya i didn't know that he wrote on this. And in watching some of the interviews,
I'm hearing that they handed him the script
when they were finished
so he could attempt to modernize it.
And Kenya's really great.
Yeah, Kenya Barris is dope.
He's really great.
I love most of the things he does.
Coming to America,
I'm not putting this on him
because I don't know if he did it.
That wasn't where I needed to hear fleek.
That wasn't where I needed to hear Fleek that wasn't where I needed
they had
they had
what was that
Patti
not Patti LaBelle
Gladys Knight
they had somebody
singing fucking
welcome to
wherever the fuck
they was
it was a mess
yeah Gladys Knight
Salt and Pepper
and Vogue
they all made appearances
yeah
and if you watch
some of the 80s movies, there's a lot of
product placement pretty blatantly in those two,
but I see what you're saying. Yeah, I just think grabbing
every big celebrity you can is not a way
to save a movie. And do your
product placement.
Hopefully it's not so
obvious, right? One, and two,
not coming to America.
Not coming to America.
That's all. This is an established brand.
See, for me,
I get to how great
black people have to be
to accomplish certain things.
It don't get too much greater
than coming to America
as a movie.
Agreed.
You know what?
I thought about it.
I would have been
happier if Amazon
turned this into a series.
I think you give more time
to let the story unfold,
let things happen.
This was like,
it was just too rushed.
You found your son in 10 minutes,
never met him before
in front of the garden
scalping tickets.
Off of a sketch.
That was good enough?
Off of a sketch in 2020.
Like, what are we doing?
You know what I mean?
I don't know if I could find
my own mother in front of the garden.
And that wasn't the garden. Yeah. It wasn't the garden yeah it wasn't the garden wasn't new york didn't look like new
york didn't feel like new york well it was just way too late like i need harlem knights coming
to america eddie to write coming to america too within the time frame that he was that rather than
post dr doolittle blockbuster superstar eddie this movie
deserved that eddie that's why i like to get j comparison if hove announced today i'm doing
reasonable doubt too i go why you're not in that space and eddie's not in that comedic space that
he was american gangster was reasonable doubt Two. Not bad at that take.
Ain't that the truth, Mo?
Have you heard that? Can you call somebody and confirm that now right now?
That? American Gangster was Reason Without Two.
I don't think so, but... I'm not using
my whole call for that, but...
I'd call Guru. It's not a waste of call.
I don't think so.
Eddie's not in the coming to America
type comedy anymore
so
this was
it's too blockbuster
I didn't need
every fucking celebrity
you could find
this shit ruined
the whole Saturday night
vibe in the living room
I ain't gonna hold you
I see where they was going
with the women
it was that one person
in the living room
after the Monopoly game
ended
hey coming to America
is out
I tried to fight it
nah it's not March 5th
nah it's not March 5th. Nah, it's not March
5th yet. Here they go. Nah,
it's the fourth early release.
Fuck.
Alright, put it on. Let's see what's going on.
I was so angry at the McDowell sighting.
I don't remember seeing
Dikembe in there. He was there? He was there, yeah.
Yeah, he was at the table.
He actually,
could he talk to the woman he ended up
marrying
everybody
okay
yeah everyone was in the movie
yeah
I thought I was gonna
appear in that motherfucker
at one point
damn I forgot I shot this
yeah I'm shocked
I would have been better
with them doing this as a show
as a series
and then somebody else
I was sitting by
who shall remain nameless
was like how she look though definitely not me that said this okay I'm doing this as a show As a series And then somebody else I was sitting by Who shall remain nameless Was like
How she look though
Definitely not me
That said this
Okay
It was like
Yo everybody in this movie
Look so great
Except for the
Eddie's love interest
That look so great
In the original
I thought she look great
Yeah she look good
Yeah you might be bugging
Show her
We saw her
Yeah she look good
She look good to me
Lisa McDowell Yeah She look good She still looked good to me. Lisa McDowell?
Yeah.
She looked good.
She still looked good.
It wasn't me that said it.
No, we know.
We know.
It was the person next to you.
Didn't look like the same girl
he was chasing all around
that subway station.
That was 30 years ago.
Looked like a girl
he could have left, right?
As a prince?
Yeah.
I'm sick of this
in these movies.
The nigga's a prince and he got to bow down to him.
All right.
All right, come on, moving on.
I'm so sick of it.
Yeah, this is...
Don't make part three.
I want you on that.
I think that'll be fantastic.
There we go.
I want you on that.
But I did love the celebration that this was,
and I loved the fact that it did come to fruition.
I feel like that's all it was trying to do, really.
Well, then they did come into America a brave injustice.
A grave injustice.
Maybe so.
If all you're trying to do with coming to America part two is...
Most of it was rehashed jokes from the first one.
It was more like a celebration than it was an attempt at some brave new movie.
You know what I'm saying?
They were trying to revolutionize comedy.
Where do y'all stand?
Coming to America 2 or Belly 2?
Wait, but my question is,
why wouldn't you try to revolutionize comedy
if you have all of the greatest,
arguably the greatest comedian ever
in arguably his greatest movie ever
with mad comedians?
Why would you not
try to revolutionize comedy?
That's completely fair.
Yeah.
This wasn't it.
They missed the mark on this one.
That's my new thing.
Missed the mark.
His son was mad annoying.
Like we could have
kept him lost.
Niggas kill me.
I would have liked to see
more Eddie and Arsenio.
Like they
I feel like we're barely
in the movie.
They don't talk.
Yeah.
And that's
that's kind of disappointing.
That was disappointing.
Eddie definitely had in his contract
that they couldn't show up to craft services
at the same time.
Hey, let me know when Arsenio's getting breakfast.
Bring mine to my trailer.
I'm kidding, you guys.
Bring mine to my trailer.
Jokes.
I support friendship.
Look at that computerized line. you guys. Bring mine to my trailer. Jokes. I support friendship. This is,
oh yeah.
Look at that computerized line.
No Johnny Gill anywhere.
All these celebrities.
It's still Black History Year,
right?
I think it's still
Black History Year.
No,
it's because they was friends.
And then when all
of his daughters came out.
Oh,
y'all are so safe.
Have a way. No, I Oh, y'all are so safe. Have a way.
No, I was asking y'all a question.
Y'all didn't want to answer it.
No, you didn't ask anything.
You just made a statement
that you didn't see somebody anywhere else.
Yeah, just like there was so many celebrities.
Like everybody was.
No, he wasn't in there.
I think he had things to do.
He was busy, right?
Yeah.
Probably, yeah.
Come on.
Got you.
Loaded schedule.
Are you kidding me?
But they shot this for a really long time from my understanding. Loaded schedule. Are you kidding me? But they shot this
for a really long time
from my understanding.
Loaded schedule.
It was a lot.
I'm booked.
It could have happened.
I'm booked for
till 2023.
It's odd that you'd get
Colin Jost and not
Johnny Gill,
right?
Yeah,
it's a little fishy,
a little funny,
yeah.
That's how you feel?
I respect you
I'm not gonna talk over the music
Wow
We might get to 2 million listeners
Holy shit, wow
Some organization, some structure
Wow
Teamwork
What the fuck?
You need to do see the thing is more often, buddy
Hey, uh Go to Flutes on in this piece.
Hey.
You don't know nothing about that, screenwriter.
Don't do that.
You never dated a chick with a red dress, ever.
Put on your red dress.
Hey.
And slip on your high heels.
Man, Eddie looked mad good in that.
That's what Johnny said Is that an edit?
Yes
Why?
Why is that an edit?
I ain't trying to be
Coming to America
I don't give a fuck
What Eddie think about me
Still an edit
I killed him a fuck few years ago
I got him the fuck out of here
Yo Eddie is no longer
Yo my mom said it was wild.
Yo, I'm a wild dude, man.
Yeah, yeah.
Just on the strength of that, I need to big up coming to America.
It was great.
Did your mom ever explain where she got the Eddie was dead news?
Yeah, she did.
I don't remember.
I'm not going to throw her into the bus again.
She got it where everybody got it from, the internet.
It's just a fake number that goes out and people ramble it.
Nah, it was a mess.
My bad, Murphys.
And rest in peace, Charlie Murphy.
Always.
Rest in peace to my guy.
Miss you, we love you.
What is this?
What is this right here?
Swiss Beats and Timbaland sell verses to Triller,
share equity with performers.
Did they sell it or not?
Who was publishing this?
Pitchfork?
What the fuck does Pitchfork know?
How do they know if they sold it?
Because they have PR people that send them press releases to all the outlets.
Let me read what Pitchfork has to say.
Swiss Beats and Timbaland's Versus has been acquired by Triller Network.
Acquired?
Stop right there.
What has acquired me?
Did they buy it or not?

And we're stupid.
Hold up.
It's right there.
Look at this little toddler.

Acquired.
Buy or obtain
an asset or an object
for oneself.
I managed to acquire
all books needed.
My bad.
I thought he was putting
all four awards up here.
I mean,
your ego is cool.
Just your award.
Yo,
but they are
killing me
for having an ego.
Yo,
having an ego
is bad,
bro.
Yes,
your ego is horrible.
Everybody has an ego.
Don't everybody
have an ego?
It's weird
in how you display
your ego.
It's important
to have somewhat
of an ego.
CNS back to
podcaster grace. It's how and how you display your ego. It's important to have somewhat of an ego. CNS back to podcaster grace.
It's how and where you...
Yours is just a little excessive.
If they get to see...
No, it's because we got to do this fucking thing twice a week where they get to talk to me.
I'm mad quiet at home.
And you wonder why I'm not fucking passionate about it anymore.
I'm mad fucking quiet and humble at home.
I don't think ego is a bad thing.
That's all.
No, ego...
I don't think I'm out
of control
with my ego
ego channeled right
is perfect

I'm gonna get mine out too

as a real fucking turntable
not only is it heavy

so they know the vibes.
Listen.
They didn't just send the grammy.
The audience that's not dissing me for having ego, they travel with us.
None of this is possible without y'all.
This is you guys' award, not ours.
True.

other people

We'll get to that later.
Unless we sign to iHeart, and then iHeart does their awards where they just award themselves,
we won't get one.
But we're not signing to iHeart.
Oh, that's a big fact.
That is not happening.
Acquired means it's theirs.
If I acquire this shirt from you, this is my shirt now.
You could never do that, though.
But if I did, I would have
ownership of the shirt.
Mad hypothetical though.
I could never take the shirt off of you.
His vintage 444 shirt.
It's too tight. Is it vintage?
It looks vintage. You washed it.
The album came out three years ago.
Is it vintage?
You should NFT it.
That's a good idea.
No, NFT it. I should NFT it. Look at him fucking. That's a good idea. No, NFT it.
I'm NFT-ing my award.
Watch the numbers jump.
300K, easy.

$300 billion.
Wait, who did what? Azealia,
friend of the show. One of our biggest supporters. Friend to you and Mo Yeah. Wait, who did what? Azealia, friend of the show.
One of our biggest supporters.
Friend to you and more.
Well, she loves us.
She sold her audio sex tape to NFT. And Parks, the numbers you were breaking down
were what exactly?
I think the original sale was like $15,000.
Regular.
Nice.
Regular shit though.
But then it's now reselling
for $150,000 ETH,
which translates to $300 billion.
There's something along those lines.
She sold her audio sex tape
for $300 billion.
Regular.
All right, round of applause.
And Lakeith was on Clubhouse
moaning for free.
Yo, man, Lakeith said
that was a recording.
I don't care what he said, man.

Now it's chuckles
and I don't know.
I don't know how many women
that man entertains.
I mean, but let's guess.
I don't know.
I mean, let's guess.
You think you do more numbers
than him?
I do not look at women
as numbers, as data.
I look at women as, you know,
beautiful creatures
that we cannot live on this earth without.
Yeah, you can't fuck with a key.
I just appreciate my inner circle.
Yeah, but you can't fuck with a key.
So you can't fuck with a key is what you're saying.
Oh, that shit is sweet.
So you can't fuck with a key, right?
Got it, got it.
Hey, listen, man.
We all got to come to grips with some niggas we can't fuck with.
I checked the new Michael B. Jordan trailer for the movie.
I'm watching it.
I'm playing that ad everywhere.
I can't escape that ad, and I don't really know why.
But it looks like a good movie.
Sure.
It does.
I'm just mad because I've seen it too many times.
He didn't say three words in the trailer, but I'm still watching it.
It looks good.
What is it?
Yeah.
Without Remorse.
This is the one.
That's the picture that's always on my Twitter.
It's literally everywhere.
Reddit and everywhere.
No, it does look good.
It looks like a good movie.
Yeah, I'm going to watch that movie.
It looks like Matt Damon.
What's the Matt?
I don't know nothing about Matt Damon.
His biggest movie.
I don't know.
I don't even watch his shit.
I know who you're talking about.
I'm joking.
Is his name Matt Damon?
Oh, yeah, Bourne.
Jason Bourne.
That's what this looks like.
Black Jason Bourne.
Jason Bourne.
Who wins, Jason Bourne or John Wick?
Jason Bourne will beat the dog shit out of John Wick.
Did you see the last John Wick?
Three?
Yes.
Terrible movie.
You think Jason Bourne will beat the shit out of John Wick?
Jason Bourne beat a nigga with a book.
He killed a nigga with a book.
Yeah, Jason Bourne might be top three in movie characters that'll kill you.
I've never seen nothing like that.
He runs a lot.
With a book?
He does a lot of running.
Mark Wahlberg in Shooters up there.
Most of that movie is him running through streets of Europe and diving through windows.
Dude's endurance is high.
Jason Bourne would kill.
He would laugh at John Wick if John Wick tried to square him.
Like, you should leave now.
You should leave.
Okay. Yeah. Okay.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yo, if you saw your queen
out with Lakeith,
you go up there and say,
yo, she with me?
Nah.
You don't know
what time it is with Lakeith?
Just count your losses.
That's it.
Count your losses.
Get on the phone
and now I could flirt freely.
No, just walk out
and remember where you parked at.
Yeah, no.
Tell them, pull it right up. Text her, hey, your jacket's in the car. Just walk out. Remember where you parked at. Yeah. So pull it right up.
Text her.
Hey, your jacket's in
the car.
Just let me know
when you want it.
It's niggas that be
doing shit like that.
Are you coming to get
your body wash?
And you don't throw
that shit in the
garbage.
No, it's me.
I'm right here.
Are you coming to get
your body wash?
It's just sitting here.
I don't like having these wait did we finish
talking about whatever
we were supposed to be
talking about
yeah but I wanted to see
no we were
we were talking about
versus
you were calling Swiss
oh yeah that's what
I was doing
Swiss ain't talking about
y'all think Swiss
gonna talk about
his business dealings
with us
no
this is what I think
since you asked
or he'll do it
in a really good PR way
I think that Joe
is so real of a nigga
that when I dial up ego back to back to ego i'm not disproving any of this ego stuff
i have an ego though we know no one is denying that you do too of course i do and you do of
course and you do we're fucking men and you do we have real men have egos i put it in a song i
told her i have an ego I'm gonna fuck bitches
I said that in a record
It's how and when
You display your ego
That's all
Hey
If you can't deal with
What we go through
Us
That means I wanna deal with it
Then
I have bitches lined up
Cause I have an ego too And egos need to be fed.
That's true.
What was I talking about?
Your call Swiss, still.
Oh, yeah.
This is what I think.
I think I'm such a real-ass nigga that when I get people on the horn,
it's official.
It's situated already.
Everything is handled.
Not like when Rory called Ari Lennox.
This is when I make the call.
Yeah.
It's different. Okay. It's different.
Okay.
It's different.
You ain't got to worry about it.
We can air it.
Oh, no.
Hey, when Joe make the call, we can air this.
Yeah, no.
I see the...
I'm going to call him right now.
He don't know.
He don't know I'm calling.
Guess what, Rory?
We can air this.
Yeah.
None of us have said bad things about Swiss Beats.
But nobody said nothing bad about Ari Lennox. I've never said anything bad about Ari Lenats. But nobody said nothing bad about Ari Lin.
I've never said anything bad about Ari Lin.
Yeah, nobody's done that.
Never.
I never would.
I love her.
Yeah, I've never said anything bad about her.
But it wasn't bad.
It was, yo, it's a lot going on on the internet.
And it's affecting how I hear the music.
That's what I said.
Like, she should treat us, I feel like, like Kehlani treated us.
Yeah, Kehlani hated us for like a month.
Yeah.
And she came back like, like yo it was a lot
and then Rory went in there
cleaned everything up
for Joe
called her up
got us to interview
yeah cause I called Atlantic
like yo I think me and
Kehlani got an issue
let me live a fuck
with Kehlani
Atlantic
didn't care to mend it at all
shout out to Kehlani
friend of the show
we love you
and I saw Ari this
this past week

Oh, see.
It's all love.
Wait, she did?
Well, not me.
It's all love.
Not me.
Everyone.
It's all love.
Wait, I think I'm everyone.
Everything is love.
You fall under that.
I think I'm everyone.
You fall under that, yeah.
Everything is love.
Yeah.
I was surprised.
I definitely never spoke bad
about Ari Lennox.
Everything is love.
But, you know, it's all good.
We love her.
She loves us.
I love Ari Lennox.
Everyone loves everyone. She didn't say that when she called us. Everybody loves everybody. But, you know, it's all good. We love her. She loves us. I love Ari Lanez. Everyone loves everyone.
She didn't tell you when she called us.
Everybody loves everybody.
Well, sometimes.
We still have to call.
Sometimes family goes through tips.
We're family.
We're all family.
Listen, I just found out I'm D'Angelo's friend last week.

He's laughing right at you. There's something seriously wrong with you. Hey, Swiss Alicia now. Yeah, Alicia don't let him talk. He said he's laughing right at you.
There's something seriously wrong with you.
Hey, Swiss.
Hey.
Yeah.
Congratulations.
Oh, man.
Thank you.
That's all I got.
That's not true.
I'm reading this.
I'm reading something that says,
Swiss Beats and Timberlands Versus has been acquired by Triller Network.
Acquired is where I'm stopping at.
You sold it?
Licensed? Am I asking? I'm stopping at. You sold it? Licensed?
Am I asking? I'm doing too much? You can tell me.
Yes.
I mean, you know,
yeah, it is.
It's sold. Oh, they got a big bag.
It's sold, but it's not.
But you know, that's not
necessarily a bad thing.
You know,
it's a bad thing. Like, you know, like, you know. Big bag.
It's a good thing because now.
We're rich.
Man, enjoy the mountain.
We're rich.
Hey, Lewis.
We're rich right now.
Hey, Lewis.
Just enjoy the mountains with your wife, man.
How shocked you want to talk to us?
Yeah, we know what time it is, man.
That's awesome.
We own it in Trillium now, right? So versus Trillium. We know what time it is, man. That's awesome.
We owners in Trillium now, right?
Versus Trillium.
It's sold, but we still there.
We're owners in the overall
shit now, which is fresh.
Well, Swiss, like we just said about
the whole
square title
acquiring last week,
you would sell title uh when you're allowed
to participate in other ways and what it sounds like is that that's what happened here you sold
versus and now you're allowed to participate in some other ways with trilla correct correct awesome
and and and with, by the way.
Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. Congrats.
Oh, shit.
Nah, that is awesome.
Friends with us, you know?
Wait, what'd you say?
I said, and we got to bring all our friends with us.
That's my favorite part of this whole deal.
That's my favorite part, too.
That's amazing.
Yeah, that's my favorite part, too in it that's amazing yeah that's that's my favorite part too
so listen listen i i know what type of time triller is on because when when when we were
free agents we got on the phone with triller and they were very aggressive speaking to us as well
and it scared me they told me they told me to name my price and I hung up I'm imagining that
he said the same thing to you
and you didn't hang up
I'm thinking you named
a number and it got done you don't have to answer
that but this is awesome
I think this is the future of the way deals
are being done
equity and just participation
and you have to include
artists now so i i personally
want to thank you and say i appreciate the way that y'all did this molded this and presented
this because i think it's going to do a lot for the future yeah it's great thank you yes i think
it's important you know because we build so many platforms and you know the creatives are never
really going to the ipOs and going public.
You know, we're always left out of those things.
So, you know, it was it was our job to make sure that, you know, everybody can go together with the IPO and, you know, with the ownership.
And, you know, they only used to see like a few of us doing these things.
They're not used to seeing over 40 some people moving as a as a unit together in
an ownership way and you know for me i think that that's my favorite part of the whole thing
um is that we was able to bring the community with us to another level you know and it's like
uh and you know the crazy part is like the artists would have still been happy for us
if if we didn't include them of course they would have still been happy for us if we didn't include them. They would have still been happy for us because everybody had fun.
But it's just like, okay, why don't we just go
on the whole ride together, you know?
And that's the way how we want other people to treat us.
You know, we want respect from each other,
but we don't respect each other.
We want ownership, but we don't give ownership
to each other, right?
So that's what me and Tim wanted to like push,
push a little bit further and show people that,
listen, everybody can eat.
You see what I'm saying?
Like it don't have to just be me and Tim holding up the flag.
Like we seen the story already, you know,
like let everybody participate, you know,
getting this news on a Tuesday that they ownership,
that they have ownership in the company
that they felt that they got paid from already whether it's from streams or some merchandise
whether it's from you know all type of things you know and we feel that we people shouldn't have to
fight for everything we got to fight for everything you know it's just like we shouldn't
you know we should just do great things and so this was this was important for us and triller was uh the only place that was
allowing us to have the artist freedom to do what we did everybody else it wasn't they didn't you
know it didn't work and it's cool all of that shit is super inspirational let me get messy for two
seconds uh larry jackson called me this morning i got his thoughts off of the record about Zodiac
signs nothing to do with versus now what I will say is this when we did our Spotify deal and as
as I try to negotiate different deals one of the roadblocks i run up against is when the when the deal ends the
companies try to get us to not be able to sign a new deal or promote a new deal for at least six
months maybe a year after that deal is done d'angelo just happened a week ago and y'all y'all
have announced a deal yeah when you hang up because i don't want to incriminate you at all in this
i'm going to ask my viewing audience how apple could have let that happen
that's it that's just confusing to me like i would have never let y'all be able to sign a
deal and announce a deal a week after our deal has come to an end are you kidding me
sign a deal and announce a deal a week after our deal has come to an end are you kidding me yeah that's you know Apple didn't ever
then onus you know but even a license

know sky's not the limits it's just a view let's go zone my last question what do you say to the
people that may think that you guys have run out of matchups tell them to put some new ones on the
table in front of us tell them tell them to look. Tell them to look at Instagram tomorrow.
Uh-oh.
Uh-oh.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All right, cool.
Listen, Swizz, we love you again.
Congratulations.
Really great things you're doing.
Send the same to Timbaland for us, please.
Yeah.
Absolutely. Absolutely. And we appreciate the the support you know what i'm saying joe you know what it is zone zone zone yes sir we'll talk soon man love all right love
no it's dope i'm really love that he really brought it when he did it that's how you do it
that's how you do it so now back to well do it. So now back to back to reading this.
Yes, he sold it,
but he also has equity
in the company that bought it.
Yeah.
So it's not like it really
went away from
And I'm pretty sure
they still have creative control
and you know.
Triller seems like a
very intelligent company
and I doubt they would want to
take that away from
Swizz and Tim as far as
the creative
shit with Versus.
Like, no, y'all have killed this shit. Yeah. You guys should continue to the creative no shit with verses like no y'all have
killed this shit yeah you guys should continue to run it yeah we just want y'all to bring that
platform and that audience here back to the pitchfork we read now that we understand this
a little better swiss and timbaland's verses has been acquired by triller network the parent
company of the tiktok competitor triller while the exact nature of the deal was
undisclosed it was announced that the two versus founders are now larger shareholders in the triller
network and that they have allocated a portion of their equity in the triller versus combined
company to all 43 creatives who have performed on versus to date i think that is so swaggy
Maggie.
That is so,
even if it's the tiniest,
tiniest,
tiniest bit,
it's the gesture.
Wow.
And from Triller's perspective too,
I want to give them credit
because I could totally
see a company
looking at Swizz and Tim
and going,
no.
100%.
Happens every day,
I think.
No fucking way.
We'll give y'all some equity.
No,
I think I'm going to do it
with all 43 of these artists.
Fuck you. I think what it is is these platforms are starting to see that you know we'll always find a way to create some of them yeah yeah you know i mean and if it's either you want to it's
a partnership now or we're going to continue to do what we do over here and y'all continue to do
what y'all do but it just makes sense for versus to say listen we we know the audience that y'all continue to do what y'all do but it just makes sense for versus to say listen we we
know the audience that y'all have acquired we've seen the numbers we've seen what y'all do like we
want to be a part of it in some way and they made this the the the two things that i will say about
this i'm not privy to i'm not privy to any more business than some of you are out there some of the viewers uh but yeah like i said to swiss that was a mistake like not
having that clause in a contract not having any clause in the contract that prohibits them from
keisha cole and ashanti not on it that's what i just said i was just reading it d'angelo's on
there twice so i can see this being a typo that's a typo because swiss may let it uh let it be known
anyone who has participated yeah is getting equity they left them off yeah so that's just a typo but
yeah for them to be able to announce that deal a week after the d'angelo shit right my brain tells
me you had to negotiate it like when you're talking equity it takes a while and when you're
talking about equity for everybody hell yeah whoa it takes even longer. So let's put 90 days on it.
90 days is a quick.
It's short.
That's quick.
I know, but I'm trying to do it in relation to
the 10-episode license that I assume Apple to have had.
I didn't go back and check to see what Apple put out.
But I'm thinking it's a 10-episode order
or something like that.
Was D'Angelo the 10th?
Yeah.
It all makes sense to me now.
What part?
We were all sitting here.
All right.
Why wouldn't you postpone?
Why wouldn't you postpone?
It was going to be D'Angelo and Maxwell on Valentine's Day.
Cool.
If it doesn't happen on Valentine's Day, we still want to see D'Angelo and Maxwell.
And Maxwell at some point.
And then Maxwell is trying to figure this shit out.
And then all of a sudden we get something that has nothing to do
with the structure
of this platform at all.
It's just D'Angelo.
It's a D'Angelo concert.
And it's a versus.
I'm getting out my deal.
It's not a versus.
We're getting out the deal.
I'm getting out my deal.
Yeah, we spoke about this.
We're getting out the deal
because we have to start
the next deal
that we finished.
Damn, but now Maxwell
don't get that.
You know what I mean?
Forget about that,
but y'all didn't tell,
nobody told Larry Jackson.
I'm assuming.
I'm assuming. Nobody spoke to Ample and said, hey, we was going to say. Forget about that. But y'all didn't tell. Nobody told Larry Jackson. I'm assuming. I'm assuming.
Nobody spoke to Ample and said, hey, we got this deal done in like week five of that.
Yeah.
Like we're finished.
It's just interesting.
Do you have to?
Yeah.
I don't think you do.
What's your question?
Huh?
What's your exact question?
I'm sorry. Did Swizz and Tim have to tell Larry that they were talking to Triller?
No.
That's how I feel.
If we have a 10-episode deal and I want to start negotiating something else after and I'm going to fulfill my 10 episodes, I'll tell you a fucking thing.
Unless I want to continue to work with you.
You don't have to.
You're right.
But it looks away if you don't.
Business.
Well, here's the thing.
I think you only...
Not only does it look away if you don't.
I'm sorry, Roy.
Not only does it look away if you don't,
but just in the art of negotiating and leverage...
No, no, no.
But you can't say that
because you agree with Khaled
not telling Ace Hood about that deal
for We The Best.
So you can't say that.
No, I say he was within his right, but I would have if I planned on Ace Hood continuing with me as my flagship artist.
And I would have done that because Ace Hood delivers to me.
Absolutely.
But if we're dealing with just rights, no, Khaled didn't have to tell him.
And they didn't have to tell him.
I'm just saying, what type of deal did did apple and again speculation
here yeah what type of deal did apple present where the relationship maybe no oil maybe no
that's that's my point in saying if they went to trailer let's for example episode five it means
apple was not delivering what they wanted and if if Swiss and Tim walked away from Apple because they did not agree to give equity to the artists that performed already, I love them too.
Then I'm highlighting this even more because you can't tell me that Apple didn't offer them a bag.
Right.
Well, hold on.
Apple offered them a licensing bag.
For sure.
I can feel safe to guess that.
I'm not here to stick up for Apple, but I'm going to.
That's different with triller and apple it's way more difficult to go to apple and say i want equity of course with
everything for all 43 artists to apple the way you could with triller way way way way way fucking
different there could be stock options but it doesn't have to be yeah there could be stuff i'm
just right i'm just saying but it doesn't have to be. Yeah, there could be stock options. You're right. I'm just saying. But it doesn't have to be. Apple could go make a fucking split company.
Sure.
Sure.
And offer them equity in this new split company.
Yeah.
Apple has no problem doing that, but they didn't.
But also, I don't know if Apple actively has this lane the way Trilla does of us wanting to do a lot of live content,
this lane the way Triller does of us wanting to do a lot of live
content, a lot of things that are internet based
and artist based
the way Apple just doesn't at the moment.
I'm not saying they couldn't do it.
It's easier to start a side company if you're
Apple and that's what you want to focus on and be a
competitor to Triller with the live event shit.
Then you can give equity to every artist.
If you don't have that,
are you going to give equity in Apple to somebody?
It's not going to happen.
In this negotiating shit, right?
Like I saw niggas kill me with the Patreon shit.
I saw niggas kill Hov with the square shit.
Build you up to break you down.
Build you up again.
It's like, Joe, we need you back
so we could kill your ass again.
That's been my whole career.
They only want me so they could kill me i'm clear on that i should
have made a cool line out of it too that's where you fucked up that's cool i never made cool line
joe's line was fuck y'all and fuck these niggas but but like public perception sometimes i'll use
me for example they kill me with the patreon shit who cares about patreon we don't care about that
we don't care about that it's corny it's corny it's corny right but as the
person that's negotiating you want to go to somewhere that has a large upside versus like
apple like Rory is saying like apple is apple if they don't want to create the the new company and
break you down then cool but Triller now this is what's so dope about these type of companies that aren't running the whole fucking world
the way Apple is.
You have more room to maneuver
with these type of companies.
It's way, way different.
Apple is making fucking hardware.
Think they care about Keisha Cole and Ashanti
getting equity?
And if they're going to continue down this path,
Triller, I'm saying now uh i like what they have
content they have uh they have a two-chain show they announced some mike tyson shit
the the jake paul shit i loved way more than i anticipated i love the mike tyson that's caffeine
that's still caffeine that's caffeine okay uh then they announced some snoop dog shit listen
if caffeine don't do right by the battle rappers
what is to stop
the battle rappers
from going to do the same shit
I haven't looked at that platform
for what it's worth
Caffeine
Triller
Triller
yeah Caffeine
y'all gotta do the right thing
Caffeine
I like what they
the idea is great
I don't like nothing
if they not gonna pay
the battle rappers
oh no no
that's first and foremost
we ain't even gotta
this same shit
that Swizz just did
is what Caffeine needs to do with the battle rappers hey we busting this down some of y'all
on equity here and and now y'all can participate i agree as we rise they should do that absolutely
but i'm not gonna make niggas do the right thing if the battle rappers are still popping up happy
with battling on caffeine hey my nigga have a blast right like whatever works for you i don't
want to,
that's my new shit.
I'm not killing somebody because they didn't do
what Joe thinks
they should have did.
Whatever works.
Right.
But I do think
that there's a way
for the battle rappers
to participate
the same way
the versus participants
are participating.
Oh, for sure,
because there are battle rappers
that should have equity
in whatever platforms
that those battles are being.
I just don't think
that caffeine is doing a good job
with marketing this shit, honestly.
I'm the last person to know
when a battle rap event is happening.
I'm with Parks all the way on that.
I'm a battle rap fucking fan.
Let me provide some pushback, though.
Remember I texted you
and asked you how to use the fucking app?
Yeah.
I was like, wait,
how do I get to this battle?
Hop sent me a link.
He just sent me a link like,
yo, here.
I was like, okay, cool.
Yeah, but are we certain that caffeine has even thought about mass promotion as opposed
to just worrying about the people that have downloaded the app and we're focused on in-app
only.
We haven't moved to outside of that.
You should be promoting it so people can download that.
I'm an admitted casual fan.
And unfortunately, when you want to get to the next level,
the casual fan is where you're going to make your money
and get you to the next tier.
I'm a casual fan.
If I can't find that shit, I'm not.
That's not necessarily true.
It always goes back to that.
If you can't find it, you don't know what's happening.
We have X amount of people subscribing to us on Patreon.
We are making X amount of dollars.
And let me tell you from my mouth, I don't give a fuck
if anybody casual Else tunes in
The people that are there
Right now
You misunderstand
What I'm saying
Go ahead
I'm not saying
From a monetary value
Yes I think
We've had this core
Fan base conversation
A thousand times
We're not going to rehash it
Of course
Getting to the next level
We always rehash things here
Go ahead
Do you think it's easier
To get on caffeine now
Or back in the day
Yo you think it's easy To get a deal now Back back in the day? Yo, you think it's easy
to get a deal now?
Back in the day.
Oh no, man.
It was easy to get caffeine
back in the day.
As far as exposure
and eyes on your app,
which will eventually lead
to monetary value,
yeah, you have to get
to that next tier
where the casual fan
knows about what's going on.
Yes, you can maybe make
more money just focusing on your
core fan base in theory but if you want to get to that next next level you need masses to know
about it and that comes from promotion but when i feel like caffeine to parks's point i completely
agree with him doesn't do a good job of it you're right my response to that is i don't think everyone
cares about what you're saying true i don't think everyone cares about the getting to the next level. I don't think everyone cares about getting to the next level.
I don't think caffeine is treating like if you know, you know type of thing.
Yeah.
No, that's totally fair.
Let's take it back to our Pusha T Spotify interview.
I don't want to bore the listeners again with this shit.
We did over 2 million listeners on the Pusha T episode.
Give me any number of that that y'all think.
Subscribe to Spotify from that one interview alone?
Not many.
What's not many?
Give me.
The people that listened to that episode
for the first time
and then subscribed to Spotify?
Yeah.
Two million?
I'd say maybe
maybe less than 5% of that.
Which is what?
I don't think any of us can do math in this room.
Maybe 40,000.
Which is a lot.
Bring up a calculator.
Let's all say ourselves.
That's why I'm confused.
I know I'm pulling up a calculator right now.
Yeah, it's not bad, actually, if you think about it.
If 30,000 people subscribe after that, I'm not mad at that.
Well, that's not what I'm doing.
I'm doing it. Y'all Talk 30.
It's a lot of money for one three-hour piece of content.
Absolutely.
That's your low end.
That's your low end.
You said $30,000, and I multiplied with what Spotify averages a new subscription to be.
Okay.
Bong.
Mm-hmm.
Bong.
And you're saying that's the money value.
This is off your low 30,000 number.
I would have it higher than that.
Okay.
So now if I'm Triller, right,
these are the numbers I'm focused,
if I'm not doing what Rory's saying.
If I'm not trying to mass promote
and get more people and get to that next level.
Like if I'm cool with just this number
and just these people, then I'm cool.
That's back to my point that everybody can't go.
Like, we're getting to the spot where this is a niche thing.
This is a luxury thing.
This is not for mass consumption in the future, I don't think.
Agreed.
Everything is.
Especially with this type of content, I agree.
They picking teams now. They already got the capt content, I agree. They picking teams now.
They already got the captains and they're picking the teams now.
So nothing about, that's Joe's opinion, by the way.
I don't, nothing about them picking teams now.
Fucking Amazon picked Coming to America, Eddie Murphy.
Everybody's picking their content.
Like, if that's happening in 2021, what do I think the future of this looks like?
And I promise we're not going to get into one of our back.
You know,
we have no random.
Oh,
go ahead.
Just quickly.
Good.
No,
we're not.
Just quickly.
No,
no,
no,
no,
you're my man.
No,
no,
I love you.
No,
I love you,
son.
No,
I love you,
nigga.
I love you,
son.
My God.
Family.
For real.
Off that Pusha T example, to the casual shit, a lot of our Pusha T views were off sensationalism.
It was off what was being talked about, and that brought in the casual fan that wouldn't typically listen to us.
And to that number you're saying, that percentage of that casual fan that went after the sensationalism got to got to that number
that wasn't a small number i have the number that's what i'm saying about getting the casual
fan even if you grasp just a little bit of the casual fan base you're doing numbers man yeah
that casual fan base shit do matter well that's why everybody only promotes to their casual to
casual fans everybody because they need promotion they need
to be promoted to because they're casual myself included i like battle rap but i'm a casual battle
rap fan i need to be promoted to i'm not going to sit and research if it ain't fucking daylight
right now i'm probably not gonna know lux better be on round seven for daylight no that's gonna be
crazy how many rounds he got written already but see if i'm a battle rapper we getting off this cause I don't know how compelling this is
to the audience
if I'm a battle rapper
if I'm the best
cause that's the position that we operate from
we are one of the best podcasts in the world
now if I move that to podcast
not podcast battle rap
if I'm Lux or Daylight or one of the best
battlers in the world
I'm not battling anywhere
else without an equity conversation you will never see me again without that talk being had
sorry caffeine you're not getting daylight versus lux and daylight or lux get no no no no no no but
the fans hate when i say equity so that's my last time saying the word and i'm done it's not even
but we just started with this word yeah we got here that's why i hate saying the word, and I'm done. It's not. But we just started with this word.
That's why I hate these niggas, man. We just started getting equity.
Some of these fights, we got to have.
Yeah, absolutely.
Some of the conversations we have to have, I know it's annoying.
I know it's redundant.
I know it's repetitive.
But some of them are necessary.
And as somebody who has over 20 years experience here, this is new.
Yeah.
This is new.
Sorry that y'all are tired of it.
Don't care.
This is new. It's too much money going around, and people need'all are tired of it but don't care this is new it's too much
money going around and people need to participate in all of it all of it all of it damn i'm not
gonna say the name i was about to say damn he filled the bag my g uh there's a stick up coming
these days there's a stick up coming this this shit couldn't look any more beautiful right now
i mean i don't know how we landed here,
but for Joe,
this looks beautiful out here.
Swiss doing this.
Hov doing that.
The Ambys and the companies
doing this nasty
fucking shit right here.
It couldn't get no more beautiful
than the position
they could sit in right now.
The Ambys, let me explain it.
Podcast Academy.
What's that?
Who's in it?
What is that and who is that?
it's like coming to
America 3
just throw anybody in there
no it's like the Grammys
or it's just like the Grammys
that's all
exactly like the Grammys
it's the same shit
well they have the full list of
well the Grammys
they did a cool design
to the award
and they tried to make it
really prestigious
the Ambeast
nigga we never heard of you
y'all don't have a long
historic history
of excellence
and then fuck out of
here the podcast academy and industry association looking to establish looking to establish meaning
you haven't meaning you have yet to establish which is cool but let's be clear in these things
excuse me get that checked out the premiere yeah somebody says uh joe hates reading out loud he
only ever bursts when he's reading. He's
embarrassed about his reading skills.
See? It's nerve-wracking. I told you.
You guys suck
both my balls
wrinkled while there's
space in there. While they're shy.
While they're tiny in there.
While they're flaccid. While there's mad
sack.
The extra sack.
Yeah, extra sackish for you.
Hey, by the way, Parks, who started it?
I think Rory doesn't have a clear understanding of what we be talking about.
It's not who's talking about their balls or their genitalia or their private part.
It's talking about sucking someone else's.
That is where it gets funny.
I have never said that on this podcast.
Just where it gets awkward and uncomfortable.
Or outside of this podcast.
Thank God.
On mic, off mic polls.
Thank the Lord.
Thank God you haven't.
I mean, I don't judge anyone that does it.
It's just not my thing.
And if it was, I wouldn't care.
Yeah, no.
That task looks-
Suck away, buddy.
That task looks way too crazy for me.
Yo, the group announced a total of- Let's get this out of the crazy for me yo the group announced the total of uh
let's get this out the way real quick the group announced the total of 164
ambis i can't ignore him if he's talking directly to me right you can't the group yeah let me try
it the group announced a total of 164 164 amb's nominees spanning 23 categories selected by voting members of the Podcast Academy.
The Amby's winners will be announced in an hour long ceremony to be live streamed on YouTube, Twitch and other platforms that creators don't participate in.
Platforms on Sunday, May 16th, 2021, starting at 5 p.m. with the pre-show starting at 4.30 p.m.
New members of the org will be able to vote to determine this year's winners

The membership fee is $100, $75 to students.
That's some bullshit.
Hey, Joe Budden Podcast fans,
we don't need the ambi.
Well, we weren't getting the ambi anyway
because a later paragraph
shares the people that are on the board for the ambis.
Let me see, let me see. Let me see.
Let me see.
Where is it?
No, not the nominees.
Chasing Cosby.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Right here.
Nasty fucks.
This is the important paragraph.
Dying for sex.
Dirty Diana.
What is going on over here?
Founding financial backers of the Podcast Academy are Spotify.
We're out.
iHeart Media. I said iHeartMedia
we're out
I said NPR
I do too but we're out
I said PRX
I'm not
we're probably not cool with them either
Amazon Music which now owns
Wondery
NPR again NPR again.
NPR again.
Tenderfoot TV, Sirius XM, Stitcher, Intercoms, Pineapple Street Media, Sony Music Entertainment,
On Being Studios, Lipson, and UTA.
The association was founded last year with the mission to foster inclusivity, elevate awareness, and build
excitement for podcasts through initiatives, programming, and our annual awards, says Donald
Albright.
Does it feel inclusive to you?
Yeah, you know what kind of bothers me when I was working at Sony?
Everyone in that building was super well aware of our podcast and what it was and the way sony has dived into podcasting and had somebody
that had a co-host of one of the biggest music podcasts period no interest they didn't see it
back then it's correct they was well aware they knew what it was hey we love the show it's funny it's great it's cool what you little guys are doing over there it's a little small
podcast yeah after now now sony is just focused sony music focusing on that shit after that uh
podcast episode when i was like uh all these great minds were in def jam at the time like
you probably won't get that again i got a a call from Kaiser and Julie that same week.
Kaiser I speak to all the time,
but Julie was with him. I spoke to Julie
in a while and Kaiser was like,
Julie, man, got Joe on the phone.
You remember Joe?
Julie said, hey,
Joe, what's going on?
What you doing, man?
Kaiser said, yeah, no, they got the hottest podcast
in the world. We can't talk to them
because we can't afford those guys but man they're doing some awesome stuff up there
i scratched my head when he said it and i understand it because you can't afford us
what i'm gonna tell you you ain't gonna give it to me but you got it though yeah no it's there
it's there it's in the building i mean so is that a can't or a won't?
Not that I think we would ever bring our podcast to a Sony or Atlantic or anything like that.
Oh, no, no.
Of course not.
It's crazy to me how much Sony has dived into that space.
They've just been focusing on it.
And wow, they were so aware.
Every big exec in that building.
And they own Epic, RCA, everyone.
Yo, love the podcast.
Yo, thank you for playing R&B everyone. Yo, love the pocket. Yo,
thank you for playing
R&B shit.
Never,
it never dawned on them once
that this would be a thing.
But,
you know,
it's fine.
And that goes back
to the Apple thing.
You can afford it,
but you're not giving it.
Listen,
man,
congratulations.
It's all the AMBs.
Two million
in a short week
press this
on your conscience
four years in a row
but that's back
to my coming
to America
coming to America
be like
look what you have
to do
and I'm glad
that we got
these white boys
with us along
for the ride
because
experience it
look what you
gotta do
to like try
to secure
something great
like we've been great for a while.
Ego again.
Sorry.
We put our best foot forward.
Now we have trophies to recognize our greatness.
You know what, though?
I think that's where they get me wrong.
Black entertainment television.
I think that's where the viewers get me wrong, at least the YouTube commenters that are killing me.
I can see where it looks like my ego is flaring up.
If you feel a way, just say you feel a way.
I do feel a way because I want to divulge
so much more, but I can't.
I don't want to leave them with
just Joe's ego is out of control,
but when you're out here and
shit is out of control and you start speaking
the facts, it will seem egotistical.
It will. It will. And I
have ego.
Everybody has ego.
Now I see these categories and again i promise you i
promise you this is not a specific breakfast club hate or anything it's just a prime example
best comedy podcast we can hate them niggas we hate the fuck who we want to hate i love everybody
the fuck niggas don't love us no no why i'm using this example there's niggas
running around acting like they love us i give a fuck what you niggas feel everything is love
the breakfast club which charlamagne being so prominent in the podcast space
has admitted plenty of times every time the iheart awards gave them the best podcast
he has said fan the breakfast Club is not a fucking podcast.
So,
iHeart is back on the board
for this shit.
Best comedy podcast.
Name the joke
The Breakfast Club
ever told on a podcast.
That they were better than us?
Oh,
and that you and I
deserve 12%.
Anyways.
Wait,
what did they say?
Nothing. You were standing right there. Didn't say a word, what did I say? Nothing.
You were standing right there.
I didn't say a word, but that's fine.
Anyways.
And I'm not using Breakfast Club specific.
I'm using Charlamagne that knows the podcast space so well and is admitting to it that he knows that the Breakfast Club is not a podcast.
He said it.
That he knows that The Breakfast Club is not a podcast.
He said it.
Why every time they start a new fucking podcast award series, it's the same bullshit every time.
Let me find every iHeart thing I can do and make it a pod.
It's not a podcast.
It's a radio show.
Stop with this bullshit.
It is what it is, man.
I don't even pay these platforms any mind like that for real.
Yeah.
If you listen to us and you like us, cool.
If you don't listen to us and you don't like us, cool.
True.
We're going to keep doing what we're doing.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. True indeed.
That's what I'm saying.
All of this is ego shit.
You really want to start having conversations about ego?
No, no, no, no, no.
My problem is not doing these awards.
I don't care about this award or any other award that has to do with podcasting.
this award or any other award that has to do with podcasting.
It bothers me that how important the podcasting space is that they're trying to condemn it to shit that isn't a podcast.
They're trying to award things that are not of the actual genre.
No,
I get it.
It's crazy.
Like,
no,
I'm just,
it talks about the importance and that goes to money.
Fucking award.
Even though with Grammys,
when artists get Grammys, their sales go up. That's why it's offensive to so many artists where it's like
fam i'm not getting nominated or getting an award you're just giving it to whatever label has the
highest shit and the biggest artist you're fucking with my money not to say that this has the value
at all of the grammys but who's to say it couldn't one day all right and if you're going in this way
to say things that are not podcasts you're already talking about bullshit and people that have put in real sweat equity to
build this podcasting thing not just for themselves but for the entire world of podcasting and then to
award something that's not a podcast is fucking offensive i get it so fuck your academy that
you're trying to build i know i know one. I'm reading Best Entertainment Podcast and if that For Life
the podcast is
the For Life show,
I'm going to be mad.
If 50's
For Life show is an audio
as a podcast,
I'm going to be tight in the base.
Is it?
Well, it's kind of. It kind of is. I'm going to be tight in the bass. Is it? I don't know.
Well, it's kind of.
Yeah, it kind of is.
Yeah.
Holy shit.
Yeah.
Gentrification.
I'm playing asleep.
I know I said I wasn't passionate about podcasting.
I'm kind of offended.
Look at Rory being passionate now.
What do you know?
I'm kind of offended by this.
Shout out to Jay and Silva
for his NFT talk
on our last podcast.
And sure enough,
as soon as he leaves,
Jack Dorsey's first tweet

Jay Skis man

This is Suede Uppers. Makes the game lovers. I maintain in my proper form just like I drain jumpers when I'm penny I'm taking extra care like sway uppers made in the beige color. I'm making sure every line is secure like a bass jumper
I'm shifting your perception of what's hot like the wave runners. Imagine if they took Kanye from us
Imagine if they took all pain from us like how they take our brothers away from us with state numbers longer than federal case numbers
I don't write bars. I paint colors to get up off the hood felt like I
started mains runner we are from a place where people felt like they just can't
love us niggas hate you from the age of little
leagues and skate covers crabs in the barrel ain't scared to pass and to fear you
they say they'll tap in and hear you but if you rapping they scared to but fuck it
I ain't fearful give me truth even if it means that I'll get a earful
Lyrically, I'll turn you to the walking dead
Like Morgan, I might fuck around and clear you
Stand for something, no niggas might volunteer you
Just be careful, keep energy protected
Cause suckers, they be near you
I ain't saying I'm a killer, but don't push me
I'm prepared to love
Every time I write, I'm on some gold standard shit
Cause I was on the bench for too long
No load management, a healthy scratch in this F felt locked out like I was Kaepernick
Even though I had mastered this, I'm not who niggas really want static with
This moment's beautiful, it's captionless if you captured it
Rock Air Ones and 327s, that's checks and balances
And that's law, no governmental branches shit
This year I'm leaving the game infected like a pathogen, who matching him?
They'll be searching for a similarity for 365 years after they bury me
Fuck hearing me, you should feel me with your spirit, B
I'm extraordinarily me, it's apparent these rappers parodies
It'll never be a pair of these
I shot my first cover in some sixes like a pair of threes
Every line butter like a pair of weeks
Mitchie B's give me home field advantage
Should I just go and get my pair of cleats
And get the jotting
They say you dig your own grave
You get the plotting
On kings and queens of our caliber
My team's the lobbies
These niggas know that they can't stop it
Just stop it
Look, it'll always be the class
