Summary

Episode 902 covers the Super Bowl halftime show featuring Bad Bunny, multiple NBA/NFL fights and beefs, the Cardi B and Stephon Diggs drama, and discussions on artist meet-and-greets, corporate pricing strategies, and music releases from J. Cole and others.

Insights
  • Cultural performances with multilayered symbolism (like Bad Bunny's halftime show) can communicate powerful messages about colonialism and representation without alienating mainstream audiences through subtlety and universal music appeal
  • Public feuds between celebrities and their associates risk federal charges, airline bans, and career consequences—aging beefs inherited by secondary figures lack practical justification beyond ego
  • Consumer trust erodes when companies explicitly acknowledge using demographic data to raise prices based on income rather than cost increases, even if the business logic is sound
  • Artists with known social anxiety or personality traits should either commit fully to meet-and-greet experiences or avoid them entirely to prevent fan disappointment and refund requests
  • Sports tanking for draft picks directly harms consumers (fans, bettors) and undermines competitive integrity—regulatory intervention may be necessary when trades are contingent on draft position
Trends

Let's get straight to it, man. You ready to act as how we do it, man? Super Bowl Sunday. Super Bowl Sunday happens. Bad Bunny, come on. Let's go. Bad Bunny. That game wasn't nothing to talk about. Yeah. Defensive battle. Woo. I know. I turned it on at halftime. I tried to watch a little bit of the show. You watch football? I watch the halftime show. It's an eternal at halftime. Ah. Yeah. And I saw the score, and I was like, damn, that looked like a snooze fest. It was. Yeah. Yeah. Unless you like defensive football, which, I mean, it's not great for, like, non-football people who make up the majority of your crowd at your house party or whatever. Sure. Yeah. So did you come away feeling like the Patriots were fool's gold? Yes. Yeah. I thought they were fool's gold going into it. Their defense is serious, though. I don't think they were fool's goal. I just think Seattle was just a complete team all the way around, like we kept saying up here. Yeah. Patriots won fool's goal. No, they handled – they tossed Will Campbell around like he was the cum rack. Yeah. They tossed him around with one arm sometimes. Cum sock. Yeah. Not even a proper rag. Yeah, word. I like the dirty piece over there that you didn't. Sometimes you've got to grab what's near. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. He's a rookie playing against all pro everybody. Yeah. Yeah. Looked like it. Yeah. Pops, you feel like the quarterback for the Patriots dropped the ball a little bit? Like, he didn't play his best. He's a second-year player. I don't know. I didn't expect him. He dropped the ball? They dropped him on his head every time he dropped back. When I watched it, I wasn't impressed. He was getting killed out there. It's on him. It's on Vrabel, coach of the year. It's on Josh McDaniels. It's on all of them. In the third quarter of the game, I'm sitting here like, oh, shit. a field goal kicker might win the year. That was the first time I ever thought something like that. Shout out to Kenneth Walker. Congratulations. He's crazy. How do y'all feel if y'all are just some quick questions for you. How do you feel if y'all and I know all y'all up here are extremely supportive, loyal, all of those good qualities and characteristics. If you're Zach Chabernet, how do you feel? I mean, disappointed that you didn't play the game But you're happy that you see one Still good Who's he? He's the running back Zach is He was hurt Achilles Okay, let me go further When y'all look at me like I'm stupid Zach Chabernay was the starting running back For this team For Patriots But they were all No, no, no For the Seahawks All year long And he's pretty good But they've had to split Kenneth Walker They've been splitting carries and as Shabonet's injuries started to kick up, Kenneth Walker started to kick up. And for the final, you want to say the whole run, the whole 10-game win streak, mostly he's been beast. So now here we are in the Super Bowl, and you got 130 yards on the ground. You got 40 yards. And he did the whole, y'all, I'm winning Shabonet's number right here because this game is for us. We carried us. I think that that's awesome. But really, how you feel on the side watching this? Take your position. In your career. We won. Yeah, because that's also the first time I thought to myself, damn, what do they look like if Kenneth Walker get all the carries? I did that. I had that thought. Right, right. I mean. You got to have that thought. You stupid if you're David Montgomery and you don't think that watching Jameer Gibbs. It's just dumb. He asked for out. Who? Montgomery. Montgomery. And I'm glad Najoku asked for out of Cleveland. He's so happy about that because I really love Fannin. Fannin really carried me. For real? Oh, yeah. I'm like, why is he splitting carries? Anyway, back to the game. All right, so y'all don't care if you're Zach Chapman or you're supporting. You care, but we won. I got to break it. It's offensive blow because you won. Yeah, right now I want the chip. After the chip, then I'll start carrying. You know what it would bother me? It would bother me if I was healthy. If I'm him and I'm healthy, and the nigga gets 68 snaps and you get nine, I'm tight. But now I got an excuse. Like, I physically wasn't able to contribute, so it don't, you know what I mean? It don't feel as heavy. All right. I hear you. I mean, I look at it, it could go the other way. It could be like, I mean, a different position, but it could be like when Bo Nicks went down, right? Yeah. It could be a situation like that. At least we had somebody that we could still win the chip. Like, Bo Nates going on, your season was done. Toast. So, if I'm him, I'm looking at the brighter side of that. Hey, we won. For now. And offseason, we'll see. Yeah, because on top of this, Charlotte is beautiful. Like, North Carolina is a great place to be because that's where you're going to be. He's about to be a Panther. Hey, if you didn't know, we try to dance around it. Hey, get ready to be a Buccaneer. See, but one of those things is a good running back, so I don't think it's going to be these guys. He won't be an example. Always injured. He won't be an example. Always injured. I'm just talking to somebody. I know what you're saying. Get ready to get up out of there. He's going to be somewhere. Minnesota's nice. Minnesota's big biking. Anyways. Anything else we need to get to about the game? I don't really care about this game. Yeah, the game is so pretty. The game is exactly what we thought it would be. An absolute blowout. I felt bad for my girl who they from Boston. So she had a Pats t-shirt on with diamonds. All this bullshit. And I'm like, yo, dog, it ain't about to. She had like a big watch party, like 70 people over there. Kids. And she decorated with all this Patriot shit. We stuck to the bad money decorations. Honestly. Smart. It's Benito Bowl. Yeah, Benito Bowl. Let's get to it. Let's get to it. The star of the show. Take it away, Barks. I'm ice going for my boy, the biggest Bad Bunny fan up here, Big Barks. I feel really bad for people that didn't find joy and happiness in that. I want to start with that. Like all this hoopla and to-do they made out of this, that shit was beautiful. It was cultural. It was fun. It was inclusive. The music was dope. My party was a dance party at that point. So if you're sitting at home with a straight face tight in the face, I feel bad for you. Haters. Haters and, you know, I guess I can see how you would feel left out if you don't speak Spanish, but I also was like, you don't try. You don't try to understand some of this. I think people would make an excuse, man. Oh, I'm sorry, Mark. I don't feel bad for those people because storyboarding. Like, I had people speak to me that said I didn't understand one word that he said, and I completely got this entire story from front to back. If you're trying to pay attention, the same thing I kind of said about Kendrick last year. I wasn't blown away by his music choice, but the story that he told I felt like was an important one. And this Bad Bunny story, especially the afterward breakdowns of all the things that I maybe even missed in real time. Tons of symbolism. But a lot of it I didn't. I'm from New York. New Jersey, you people that don't ain't from up here I can walk to New York, shut up I can ride a bike to fucking, I can power walk over there Anyway, he used to ride his bike and walk back Donated a lot of bikes to the Bronx I get it I'll see you with y'all Let me show you how to willy roll I'll be right back It's cool You don't think You're taking my bike You're taking my bike You're taking my bike Your brakes are a little tight Niggas throw my bike When I ain't know how to park Or punch you Oh They on your way They on your way They on your way Don't worry about it It's cool bro I got him Where was I in this story Symbolism Symbolism Oh yeah The symbolism I just think It was really easy To understand If you sat there and try it. And again, like I said earlier in this pod, some of y'all don't have speakers hooked up to your shit. Some of y'all TVs tiny with the bad sound coming out. Like, I immediately if you just turn it up, all you had to do was hit volume or all the way up. That's it. Max out the volume, sit back, catch a vibe. Mark, you were saying... First of all, it was a whole performance. It wasn't just about the words. And it was beautiful. And it was compelling. And we love music. But I feel like we let people off the hook. But they be bullshitting. You know what I'm saying? Like, a whole bunch of middle class people go to the opera. They don't speak Italian. And they be loving the shit out of it. Word. You know what I mean? A whole bunch of drunk white people do the Macarena and be singing all that shit in the middle of the night. They know what the fuck is going on in Macarena. People are making a choice to say that the language is a barrier to enjoying this. If you want to like it, you can. It's that simple. And I just think that music is universal. Agreed. I don't give a fuck. Yeah, I think music is language. Like, when I see the little kids in the African countries and they be doing the dances and shit, bro, that shit stops you in your tracks. Like, when I hear Afro beats or anything, I don't got to, the music itself comes alive. And that shit do something. You want to hire niggas, like. Stop you in your tracks. Oh, that shit I'm lying here. He play out loud the Lord. That's what he do. He was around with the black. That's all. No, that's the shit that I think is bullshit. It's like, yo, dog, again, whether you understand what you're saying, you can't deny the fact that when you cut some of that shit on and the snares start kicking and the bass start kicking, it moves you and do something. You had no choice but to look at the message, though, right? Like, if you don't, I didn't understand what he was saying. We had a choice. It was ass out there. No, what I'm saying is that I didn't understand what he was saying. Yeah, Michael Lyle, I'm sorry to cut you a flip briefly. Yeah. If you turn that on and see all those beautiful people on that screen. Yes. And you didn't enjoy yourself, you are devastatingly, uncompromisingly gay. Which is not a dish, except for the fact that people that feel that way don't like gay people either. So, like, how do you look at that and be like, this is horrible, this is anti-anything. Yes, that's my thing. There's some people that connect with just cultural shit. And then I guess there's just people that don't. I had that thought that you had watching. Yeah. Let's pretend you hate bad money. Oh, let Latin ass get out there and start shaking around. Hey, white people, y'all like Latin ass like me. Push mute. Y'all like Latin ass like us. Yeah. Them niggas went in wanting to not like it. Those women were beautiful up there. Yes, they were. Shaking ass. Also, the fucking, we parents, the kids sleep on the makeshift chairs. I get it that that's a cultural thing for them. It applies to all cultures. I remember being a kid at my parents' parties, go through that same feeling. Yes, yes. How do you not see that and be like, feel like, not feel a connection? The fucking dancing on top of the bodega. Him having Tonita come from Williamsburg. That was fly. Me and my stupid ass, I didn't realize the light blue in the flag. Yeah, I didn't know that either. I didn't know that. I didn't know that. The light blue is Puerto Rican independence, and it was once like you would get fucking arrested or killed for having that, as opposed to the dark blue, which is symbolized the American colonial nature. Oh, shit. Everything in that shit was symbolic The The electrical poles Yeah Crazy shit One of the Republican chicks was like yo What you need to be talking about is the lack of Electricity blah blah blah blah And it was like That's what he was basically doing you asshole Their infrastructure so fucked up that They be going without lights for months I heard you know what I'm saying In America and you're an American Colony and y'all still don't have electricity. That shit is by design. And what was dope, this shit got me a little emotional. I didn't know the little boy at the very end that he gave the Grammy. It was not. My mom's in the same. Yeah, it was. That fucked me up. I was like, yo, that's gangsta. And that's racist because all of the kids don't look the same. He looks different. They don't even look like him. They have to split screen with the kids. They have to split screen with the kids. He looked like the mom was about to be like, yo, that's gangsta. But even if he put that much thought to go get that boy, that would have been amazing. I think the sentiment kind of was still the same. My dream came alive, whatever the case may be. It's important to see representation. It's important for that kid and that family on that land to look at a TV and see him win that Grammy and have that acceptance speech. That's important. The wedding. That was amazing. Which was apparently a real wedding Real wedding It was a real wedding We should have put a bad buddy At our wedding We fucked up That was imperfect Could have been us Oh dude I was just about to call them I was about to congratulate them And call them groupies Okay Congratulations That's some fly groupie shit I should have I got married I got married I got married That's groupie And you get a fast That's groupie Please How That's an amazingly fly wedding I want to hear this It's a 45-second wedding. At the Super Bowl. Yeah. With Bad Bunny doing the music. The most watched event. Pardon me, but when I get married, I want the day to be about me and my wife. I feel you. I don't want it to be a sideshow of someone else. I feel you. Sorry. I generally feel like that. Sorry. But there's one exception, and that's the Super Bowl and Bad Bunny. Yeah. That's Bad Bunny. Yeah. 13 minutes of greatness. Get the fuck out of my face. Would y'all get married at like a regular football game? No. No. A basketball game? No. So just a performance at the Super Bowl. With Bad Bunny. Yeah. Specifically. Not Coldplay, not Baruch. Not even Erskine. Not even Bruno. And I think it's fly the way they originally planned. Like to invite him for you to have a wedding and you look to the back and Bad Bunny walked in. You're a wedding? Yo. Dog. That's this. That's fire. And he's an absolute sweetheart. Like anytime my dad's wife Jackie sees him at the game, like they speak and kick it. And, like, he's friendly. He seemed like he a genuine dude. Him? Those are the people that you kind of root for in life. For sure. You know what I'm saying? Him out there in the Zara fit. Yeah, that's why, too. The Zara football jersey with the shoulder pads. But just that earthy, not stand out, not bring attention. To me, this is about us and the story and the community. and just everything that went into every detail of this thing. I'm blown away by that. Right now, the Super Bowl halftime show, for me, I'd be more blown away by the story you're telling. Yeah. And whoever is doing the design of the production. We got to show the production. That shit was incredible. And this goes back to the West Coast tribute. I loved that. I loved it. Rihanna stage, Usher stage. Kendrick, obviously. Yeah, Kendrick, I love it. It's a sight to see. I thought that two of my favorite ones have been the last two. All of them are beautiful and amazing. But in terms of the power of the message, I thought what Kendrick did last year in terms of the set, the story he was telling was great. I thought what he did this year, Bad Bunny, was great. I loved the subtlety of it. You mentioned the power lines and stuff like that. He gave a hard message, but it was in a way that didn't make the story a distraction. so everybody's not on the news the next day I mean they're complaining but they're not like he mentioned slavery but like when you see sugarcane you can't talk about that without talking about slavery and the fact that he had diversity of the different types of Puerto Ricans that were up there as opposed to just white Latinas was beautiful and important especially if you tell the story about slavery I just thought the way he did it was so subtle it was very much the same standard that Kendrick kept last year it was just like high level of art beautiful but with a powerful message I can't praise it enough, man. I just don't know. And it sounded good. It sounded good. It sounded good. Yeah. That's how the music was. What did y'all think about the guest appearances? We were guessing who was going to be there. I ain't going to hold you. It was cool. It was cool. It was way out of place. Like, I feel like there was. To my Lady Gaga? Yeah, Gaga. I mean, she did great. Oh, I forgot she was there. I was talking about Cardi. I understand people saying that Lady Gaga may have been out of place. I think that that also added to not only the show, but the symbolism point that we keep making over and over again. After the fact, I learned that the lyrics that he says right before she comes out in Spanish is like, is this what you want? Is this what you want? Almost like the old DJ. So out comes this white Pop star Wearing the same light blue From the flag Putting her American hit Over their music Rather than the reverse Is what we always see And that Is stunning to me Again Telling the story And how she was And just the dress that she had on apparently was designed from some really famous Latin designer. Okay. I don't know what they said. Everybody's shit was. Everything. Well, yeah, but I'm sure. Except him. Well, again, his was Zara. Yeah, they broke everybody down. Ricky Martin, all of them. They broke down the designers. Yo, Ricky Martin bought that shit, too. He bought it. Except for him. He sounded great. He looked great. He looked like he was, like, 32 years old. Yeah. He looked great, yeah. I would have loved to have seen an old-school Puerto Rico artist. Like, you know what I mean? maybe in the Gaga slot, but I understand why they did it. The Gaga thing makes sense for all the reasons, politically, message-wise, all the things. I would have loved to see an old schooler, but other than that, I thought... I got 12 to 13 minutes and I just gave 90 seconds to Gaga. Yeah. Sorry. Sorry, Biggie Smalls. I got a story to tell. No, or if he had just had an older dude on one of the guitars or something. Yeah, something like, you know what I mean? He had my man, Bob, when he did the shout to the celebrity that he had over there, Jessica Alba. Jessica Alba, I saw you, but there was a plus one over there that I saw that. Oh, the girl used to date Praxin Berrios. Alex, the white girl? She was a white girl. White girl, beige kind of see-through. That's the girl that Tom Brady's allegedly dating. Salute. Salute. That makes sense. We're talking about the same person, which I think it was. I think there's only one white girl out there. Only one of them made me say move, Jessica Alba. Jessica Alba, you are now in the way. You know, funny, look at this. Look at how that works. Look at how fast. It's the three seconds to say, all right, move. Who is this goddess? Pablo Pesquez, my man. Pablo Pescal. Pescal, yes, yes, yes. He was over there. That's not old school enough. Yeah, that's old school a little bit. It's a little old school. I think I want that in the Gaga slot. Okay. It's such a prominent slot to platform a major Latina, and particularly Puerto Rican. But I'm not mad at it. This is what I was kind of expecting and kind of hoping, but I ain't mad at that. I think the message that Ricky Martin spit, what happened to Hawaii, you know, that was dope. That's an amazing song, by the way. You're talking about what America did to Hawaii. Yeah, colonization of a tropical island, essentially. I don't want to speak up Hawaii. That was fire. When I found that out, that was fire. I was impressive. Ricky Martin looks great. Yeah, he does. Ricky Martin looks great. Later, I learned he's the same age as Kid Rock. He did side-by-side. Boy, that was funny. Boy, that was funny. That Latin don't crack. No, no. Racism aids you, man. Kid Rock looks like you. That's what I'm saying. The racist niggas don't look like they be having a blast. Can you imagine being like, I don't want to watch this, and then turn on Kid Rock as your alternative? Did you watch that? No. No, Mark. I did. Why? Not live, I watched it later I had to just see it And I ended up debating Pierce Morgan about it But yeah, it was everything you think it would be It was bad music Lip syncing Pro-life messages randomly It was like adoption Like commercials in the middle of the performance It was weird It was everything you think it would be It was every bit as bad As the other thing was good And of course Bad Bunny broke the record record that was set last year? Yes, it is. You know, for most views. 135 million. My shit crashed. That's amazing. I was tight. It was pressure in the household because I was turning up the speakers and saying my shit crashed. I was like, oh, fuck. Oh, shit. So we got it right when he came out. Thank God. Well, that Kid Rock concert got three to four million. So just to give y'all a comparison. 135 million. Yeah, three million. So it wasn't the event that people wanted to make it sound like. And that report, and them numbers might not be accurate. They probably not. This has really been around a million. They count screens where they count votes. You know what I'm saying? It was probably really like one. You know what I mean? But it was great. And lastly, I love the moment. This is what had the conservatives pissed off, at least yesterday when I was debating all of them. The God Bless America moment. How could you be mad at any of the messaging? That's the part where as a racist, you just got to feel like a dick. I know why they're mad, but their reason they're mad is the reason why they're in a problem. When he said God bless America, he then brought out every flag from around Latin America. When here we say America, we mean the United States of America. And most of the world, when you say America, they mean the America. You know, so it's all throughout the Western Hemisphere. So he was saying, like, America, you're not the center of the world. We're going to say God bless America and then bring out Bolivia, Colombia, Venezuela, all the way around. And he didn't put the U.S. last. No, he started with it. Exactly. So it was perfect. And that's what I'm supposed to do. Canadian. Canada. Right. Right. Everything in America, right? We ain't the only America. So I just thought that was a beautiful way to punctuate it. And again, you know, even though it was all subliminal messaging and all that shit, it never felt like that. It was fun. It was a party. It was all positivity. You know what I'm saying? It was all positivity. It was love. It was anti-hatred. And he picked the right songs. He did. He picked the right songs. He picked just about every song I would have wanted to hear. Which is, I don't know. That's what I used to go like. No, I'm just saying, I don't know the song. There was no right or wrong. They just sounded good. And that's all that matters. Yeah, I don't know. Like, they had the fucking, the icy machine joints. All of that. Coco likes nothing, bro. Like, some of this, some of this, how do you sit there with the typeface? And the businesses were valid businesses. Like, when he was walking down the strip, it was all valid businesses in L.A., New York, and Puerto Rico. Like, that's fire. He had a nail salon, like a nail salon in there. Yeah. Yeah. Like that's You know what That's fire Some of that shit Resonated with us more Cause we really identify Like we see the Icy motherfuckers Yeah You know what I'm saying So if you live in Iowa You don't know what the fuck You know what I'm saying Like they don't know What that is maybe Or the bodega scenes And some of that shit It might not identify with them But for us That shit was like Oh that was I was 17 And this bitch Man I got I got a team of dancers You don't know I mean yes 37 Right All of that resonated with me But it's also just in me right I'm not putting this just this is cool the ice beads I damn near shed a tear but the point I'm making is it resonated because how could it not right if it's in you right right like well when they had his crew his crew of niggas come on man everybody's seen the Latin crew of niggas that's gonna stab you for their man and if they're going to riot, you're going to have to deal with these niggas. And they all got to blame. You respect them, yo. You love that. The way that they love each other, and when they fuck with you, they'll stay my life a few nights. It's also, it's in a lot more of us as Americans, regardless of where you live, than you think. Like when I was in Europe for a month with Premier and them on tour, you go spend a long time away from here, You will realize how much Latin culture Impacts you without even noticing it Like the food, the music, the people We're not America without it Yeah I was going to say I got into an argument with some older family members Who I'm like yo y'all MAGA And I'm finding this out of some shit What the fuck is going on They was hot Literally yo this is America speak English I said yo excuse me like y'all from here like you know you be in you go to the bodega what are you what are you where you was at king not doing it no no stop I also remember one of the first things we learned in American history is the pizza the Santa Maria the like what the fuck but I'm damn near giving a history lesson like they stole this shit what are you talking about this right speak English English is from England they say I speak English America English is not a American official language America don't have an official language at all bro that shit was frustrating cause I'm like how do you watch this especially where we from I'm sorry I get the rest of the country but we're right here I agree with free and again it's disingenuous man when Sean Paul pops up they don't know what the fuck he's saying either and they're fine with it when mumble rappers rap half the time we don't know what the fuck they say we don't give a fuck we gotta stop acting when perfectly fine English speaking not mumble rappers sometimes we don't understand the messaging and you gotta dig deeper and look at the lyrics and do some comprehending. Exactly. I don't believe they hate the motherfuckers. I'm with you. It's cat. I think so. I think so. They're raising your kids. What are you talking about? They're raising your whole family. That's the point. You hate them. Please. They're looking at them. That's what you look for. That's it, man. You're beneath me. You can do this, but that's it. You take all Latin culture out of here. I might bounce too. You take the fucking quick rice and cheese, man. I'm out. Oh, you said you gone? I'm out. What'd you say? I didn't hear you. He said you gone? Yeah. One way? Yeah. Not coming back? Not, yeah. And I'll never see you again. I'm not coming to Portugal. All them little white lands you like to go to. We know. That'll be the end of all. The little white land. The white land. The white land. He the king of them little white lands. I'm building an island. Nigga, I ain't fucking meet up. I built a castle. Yeah, everybody. Ask him all that shit. That shit was fantastic, man. It was. On to what wasn't fantastic. And I'm just trying to make sure that we get to everything here because it was loaded. It was. I would also encourage people to go look up some of these songs. DTMF, the Hawaii record. Go look at the lyrics and look at the translation You will be blown the fuck away What the New Wave at York brother My daughter just walked over to Alexa and be like Alexa play New Wave at York Swear to God Yo, like. It's a bop. I don't blame her. Nah, that shit is transcendent age groups. Like, that shit is different. Good music is just good music. It is universal. Yeah, for real, man. What's not universal in the time is commercials. Some things just didn't hit. It might be a dub for the Super Bowl commercial. Yeah, I'm not going to marry you. Bro, that shit is terrible now. It's been a couple years of just stinkers. I don't know if the budget's still there. I saw the Dunkin' Donuts one, and it was just weird. That might have been the best one. That was the best commercial, wasn't it? That is up there. Okay, because I saw your boy Jalil, and I saw, who else was on there? It was a young man. Remove Jalil. Jalil White. Urkel. Urkel. That ain't my man. Who saw Mike? I'm like, what I should do? I'm going to put that on me. Last year we was joking because he was nervous. I told you he took. I don't fuck with him. Me either. That's what I said. You don't fuck with Urkel? I don't know. Nah. Not at all. Nah. Nah. All right. But that might have been the best commercial. I had the Instacart one. It was my favorite. What was that one? It was like an old stage some shit that might have fallen all over the place. I'm describing it bad, but it was funny. Bro. I thought William Shatner as Will Shat's selling fiber was pretty funny. That was funny. That was funny. That was funny. Will Shattson. The one that fucked me up, though, was, and I saw it afterward. I saw it because it was going around the internet. The Ring one. Yep. Did y'all see this commercial? No. Yeah. You saying that? That's our family. But every year, 10 million go missing. And the way we look for them hasn't changed in years. Until now. One post of a dog's photo in the Ring app starts outdoor cameras looking for a match.

I see how y'all talk in there. I do, too. They be so racist. They racist as hell. I read every day. so we put ring cameras in my mother-in-law's uh apartment uh you know just to to keep track in case something happens sure um she's since moved out of that place but i never turned off the ring so like every every day like i get the updates and it'd be like so-and-so came to my porch and they post like the picture of somebody who stole their package the person who's looking suspicious on the block you'll be shocked to know it's always a black person and they don't even like you said they don't even pretend to not be racist because it's like a little group chat so they don't have to use the liberal code word. Yeah, exactly. They'd be like, there's a black guy who's stealing shit Friday. Yeah. No. And I see. Bro, we get this shit and they just be like suspicious black dude walking around the development. He ain't even doing shit. Wow. And they post him in there. I mean. Or if you're in the neighborhood with black kids and your kids get too close to somebody else's property and it's just bad, bro. It's bad. It is. So y'all the last people that need this new word. Oh, man. They're going to be sitting on that shit all night long because the updates from Ring alone be annoying as fuck, bro. They go off all day long. I don't have Ring, so. Oh, man. You ever report anybody? No. No? Never? No. No. Go ahead and tell them yourself. No, I don't do that. I don't believe in snitching, but I be thinking it. I jumped in that chat. There's a girl people that linger a little too long On the block I know you don't live here Nobody here has a Ford Escort What the fuck are you doing on my block But I don't call nobody I just be Keep my eye out I jumped in that chat one time When there was somebody going from Driveway to driveway Check your handles Oh god damn yeah So I went in there to say hey y'all Somebody is running around trying to open your doors Yeah See Other than that See that's being a good neighbor Yeah I think so Yeah But if a black person You can leave your laptop In your car And it got your personal shit in it So to alert all the neighbors Like yo lock y'all doors Is one thing Right But if you see it Just a brown skin motherfucker Walking around He looks suspicious Why But I do Also now Because I mean We from where we from If your laptop is in the car You shouldn't have your laptop In your car We coming to get you Yeah We coming to get you No that bag You're one of the suspicious fingers, bro. Let's not be naive now. I know that's laughing at the camera. The car was told, you know, you're all right. All I have was my purse, my bag, and my valuables. And the console. Yeah, we know. We came and got that. Box of sneakers in the backseat to get it done. That's what I told Mark about the airport. I got burned the airport. I'm like, nigga. You fishbowling and leaving shopping bags in the backseat. But that was new at the airport. I deserve that. I don't care. Where are you at? And now they run up and people cringe. You don't leave your shit in your car regardless of where you're at. I forgot to like the door. No, no, it was on me. It was my fault, but I don't expect that at the crib. I'm getting too comfortable. Yeah, you are. But now they run up in people's cribs. Yes, they are. They're opening the door. They're taking the keys off of the – because most people hang their keys right at the door. I've told this story. I got my car stolen like that. Oh, really? They stole my car out of my driveway. Damn. Really? They went in your house and got it? No, you can use the signal box. Yeah, they got the box. Oh, damn. No, no, no. No, they have to take no keys. The key is in my house. Oh, right. Because it's close enough. It's close. You can catch the signal. I was talking about people, because people don't be locking their doors, just come in and take the key out the house. That's what they're doing in the white neighborhood. Yeah, because your first thing when you walk in, most people either got the thing that you hang it, or they got the little key table. You put the mail in your keys. White people look dope, right? Yeah. Y'all always got to hang stuff. Right? You're supposed to be good. I can sit in my house. This is a familiar. This is a DNA. Yeah. Don't y'all stop hanging. I'm hanging. Jesus. All of these years later. We come up for hours. Oh, man. And let me break some news to you people out there, because the ring said if you lose your dog, to put it in there. Newsflash, if you're a great dog owner, you won't lose your dog. He'll just come back. I'm not going to lie to you. That's a good word. If you take care of your dog and lose him, he'll miss you. Trust me, he'll come back. He'll come back. He's going to find a way, right? Chicken and rice. Right. Now, unless he get dog napped. Because if you took great enough care of the dog, somebody will snatch him off the tree because he's a beautiful dog. That's when you've got to have the collar with your phone number and your famous name, Joe Buddy. They've got the airtight collar now. That's all? You can chip your dog. You can chip your dog. These dogs cost a lot now. You better chip this motherfucker. That's what else. So you know niggas used to do go up there, steal a dog, post it, and get the reward. You want to air tag the dog, too, huh? Hell yeah. Nigga, that's the thing. You get air tags. Everybody get a shit. Yo, when he like air tags, he like damn it with them shit. That boy.

You're not even going to hide it. And that's what I was thinking when I was sitting there because the game was a blowout. I didn't say nothing because I was trying to be respectful but in my head I'm saying, is it still PDA? Yes. It's even worse. That is PDA, right? It's worse. That's worse. We need new initials for that one. That is worse than PDA. Yeah. on the first meetup at the, at the, at the, in front of the crew. Holy crew, right? And you're just cuddling all over the, yeah.

Some of y'all were just talking about a halftime performance to you. You're not. Yeah, you're not. You're not. Sometimes you give off information about yourself that you don't know is omitting from your pores. I told you that conversation. Yes.

You used to like Cardi B No let's talk about it I'm dead We'll get the prize B Sure What do you say They show her down there With Jessica Alba And them She look good Jessica who I hope Cardi was popping up Through the thing What That tattoo I'm on Cardi now B I ain't got a hotel Oh okay You smiled Okay You know all the girls up here right You don't give a fuck You said what Yeah you said I'm just complimenting you on your taste. Fast motion. Your girl look good, man. She's been looking like something, though. She's been looking like something lately. Yeah, I seen that the after part. You see what the dance on that girl in the video? No. I saw her dance on a robot. I will go to Cardi. Oh, that is what I saw. The robot wasn't in my house. I didn't go great. Shout out to Cardi. I love Cardi. Me too. So it started with the drama with Cardi started when she was entering the game when they said, Do you have any words of inspiration? Oh, shit. Damn. No, you got to see it, though. Yeah. That ain't even doing it justice. It looked worse than that. Every nigga know what that good luck meant and that look she gave. Your man is in the Super Bowl. Oh, shit. You have access to the entire world to send him a message. And she said. Good luck. Good luck. She looked. Good luck. Right. I saw that and I was like, either they. I didn't necessarily think it was breaking up. It could just be a regular fight. It could just be a really bad fight. All right. Party strikes me as a type thing. If they're having a fight, it's about to be. Y'all are spilling tea all over the floor. Okay, go ahead. Shut up. This is what I'm saying, because I do want to hear what y'all think. We're just rolling with the proposed tea, which is. he expressed to her he would like his child to come to the game right says that the child is coming to the game with his mother cool Cardi says cool allegedly all allegedly before the game the kid's mom calls and says on second thought I want to bring my child to the game to which he now buys a separate ticket for her so she's away from family and friends. So she gets there immediately post, I'm at the game. Now this shit is all over the... But it was the practice field. She had like a field something because it was like she got down to the field and the only way to do that is directly with some credentials from if your baby mom is at the game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm just saying, I'm just adding for those who don't know. The odds are, of course. Yeah, that's why I'm so it gets a little tricky. On top of that, apparently his, Stefan's best friend, which we'll leave names out of this, is Offset's old mistress. Yes. Who she was pregnant by Offset. Allegedly. Allegedly, yeah. This just sounds like... I ain't here to pregnant. Y'all got the whole question to you. Yeah, word. I heard they was together. So, no, she was pregnant. No, I'm talking about the two chicks. I heard they was together. Which two chicks? Austin Old Work and Stefan's Old Work. I can't speak to the proximity of who was what. Sound like he had a lot going on while my superstar wife is here also. So hearing all of that Whose side do y'all want? I'm on hers I see both sides But I'm going to rock with her I see both sides But I'm going to rock with her But that's what Corey just said It's his game It's the Super Bowl I agree To me that's why you shouldn't have all this distraction You know what I'm saying Like, there's a lot of shit to have to bring to you to the biggest day of your life. But this nigga always got a lot of distraction, though. Word. You know this. Yeah, and that's where it's. So it's like the duck is cracking. Yes or not. I'm going to host her style. I'm going to host her style, but she knew. She know how this nigga played. She knew how this nigga played, so you just took a chance doing that. Real talk. We don't want to. I mean, I love her to death. I'm going to be respectful. And I'm going to be back to that. Yes, it's the Super Bowl and it's his game, but she was coming out regardless. Oh, that's true. She's working. Right. Yeah. Okay. So, yes, can you not today have me in the blogs and just looking crazy dumb, especially if we are together? I don't know if they were or not, but if we're together, the baby mama you're together with is supposed to have a few more perks than your other baby moms. So, sorry that they. Oh, right. Sorry that they have to miss the special game And us as men We tend to talk about How we change You know what I mean you could have been a whore And then you change at some point So I think that yo dog Whatever he was doing Once he got with shorty if he's professing His certain game Like she got up there and said The nigga was like yo let me heal you Let me do all of this shit Now you saying all of this shit but if you carrying on with the same antics She had the right to be tight Because niggas never did that before. There's no way to see this coming. What I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. Which lady did that. He hasn't shown nothing that says he's changed. We don't know that. No, we do know that. When the paternity shits keep popping up every six weeks. I'm not. That kind of thing. Counterpoint. That he's still wilding. No, that's even more. It's not true, bro. A lot of them relationships. He's going all the way. A lot of them relationships were pre-her. And so if. I can do a little bit better. Bro, if you are saying, yo, dog, I'm a change human being and I'm trying to do shit right, you got to now show this young lady that you're trying to do some shit right. So if that is the case and you bring your baby mother, your other baby mother, and all that distractions to the game, she has a right to be tight. Oh, she could be tight. That's what I'm saying. Or he could still be on bullshit. He could be, which means she still got a right to be tight. Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. But this is a song and dance. If I'm constantly on bullshit, you keep getting tight. And we keep working. That's accountability. is no i'm saying yo the question joe asked was yo what side are y'all on in the argument and i'm saying i'm on her side me too even though i see how some of this stuff can happen if you telling me x y and z every fucking day and then you showing me something different now i got a right to be tight now if she go back then yo you just when you go from a victim to a willing participant when does that change when do you go from okay i'm being taken advantage of to now i'm a willing and participate because I know what's going on. I know what you're going to do. You've been doing this. Okay, I'm hoping that at this big day, I just spent $1.2 million on a party for you. I heard allegedly. Oh, you're the after party. Yeah, after party. Nobody showed up. I'm hoping on this day you have respect and that you don't. Yeah, I spent $1.2 million on an after party in the event that you won. If you lost, here's a pick you up. And you got all of this shit going on in there. At this game, to answer your question, Flip, the funny thing about volunteers is they can un-volunteer. That is true. Yeah. They can walk away on their own accord, with no paperwork. But until they do, they're a willing participant. I concur. I'm not. I was just answering this question. Yeah. I'm just. Got you. Okay. Well, I hope it all works out for them. I wouldn't do it. But, I mean, I would never be the Super Bowl. And then on top of that, like, if your partner is... Your current partner. Your current. You have to have a level of respect for your current partner, bro. And I agree with that. Just bring the kid. Because how can your baby mother say, I want to come to with the kid? No. Who's bringing the kid? Huh? I want my kids. Who's bringing the kids? Joe said, I didn't get this part, but Joe said, allegedly, the mom was bringing it. Her mother was bringing the baby, right? That's what you said? Allegedly. Allegedly. The grandmother. Oh, the grandmother, okay. I love when you said the mom, but you mean the kids. Is there any instance where you don't want your kid there because you know that your kid being there is going to give the kid's mom a license to do exactly what she did? I think you've got to have some real honest and direct conversations ahead of time. Let's talk about it, Mark. Look, you're coming. You're not. And if you're not capable of holding that down for whatever reason, Then you can't go that way. The kid can't come. Which I don't think is the right outcome because you want your kid at the Super Bowl. Because you don't know how many of them you're going to get. And it's the fucking Super Bowl. So you've got to make that work. That's when you've got to grab your nuts and manage this shit properly. Whatever that looks like. I'm with you. Yeah. He's young enough to still have all that going on. Well, you get to a certain age. You just don't even have the energy. I'm exhausted to hearing that shit. I was exhausted to saying that. Peace and love. Peace and love. I think I'm on Cardi's side too. I think I'm on Cardi's side too. Yeah, dog. He's 32. I'm playing age. Yeah, she out there lit. That's the thing about when your partner's lit too. Like you raise the embarrassment level. You already know paparazzi is on every little thing either one of us. Dude, you just, come on, you got to be. It's tough. Alright now it's time for my favorite part of the show Pride Bitch Pride Bitch who was fully available in New York City Oh yeah For gaming Did be no good at this game but that's alright Oh I went in there and loaded up Yeah Oh I went in there I drove to the city on a Sunday morning Oh man I got about 10k Oh shit That's correct See the difference That's where people see I feel like cracking you. What the fuck is your problem, yo? 10K's a crack. I mean, I put 90 of them shits in there. Something had to hit. I played 90 tickets. I was calling it a crack. You know. Half a rollie. Yo, you terrible. A little quick little 10K. I wasn't mad at it. Something like that. All right, all right. So, listen. So, the big game is over. It is. And Price Bits did not send me a read. So this is all off the door Hey if I was PrizePix I shouldn't have expected a read Either honestly For a large portion of the weekend I was just sitting there doing man With a calculator out You need one And I'm sure Everybody from PrizePix Is busy and has been busy They probably sleep right now They probably buy the money machine just watching shit add up over there. So the big game is over, and boy, Pride Figs definitely cashed in. Hopefully some of y'all cashed in as well, such as myself. We still got basketball games, though. We got basketball games. We got hockey. We got college. We got Olympics. I've been glued to watching the gold medalist curl thing. Oh, that's good shit. That's good shit. I feel like they are just inventing sports now, But that looks extremely difficult It's like shuffleboard but big It's like Advanced mop and glow Yeah Like your arm skills and your mop skills Everybody can mop yo They gotta be Those guys are impressive They do that shit fast After the Super Bowl party everyone went downstairs to smoke After the game And they were kind of joking because Figure skating was on I went back upstairs to clean or whatever came back down, they were so locked in. I was like, salute, man. Salute. Shout out to Nancy Carrigan. What was I saying? Oh, so, yeah, Mad Sports is still there. Pride Picks is really easy and simple to play. All you have to do is select two or more players, look at their projected stat line, and pick more or less for your chance to win big. And the Ish Picks of the Week. Issues going with Franz Wagner for more than 17 points in rebounds. Okay. Bobby Portis for more than 18 points in rebounds. Chet Holmgren for more than 10 rebounds in assists. And Jalen Suggs, I'm assuming this is a suggestive Suggs, right? Jalen Suggs for more than 5.5 assists. Don't forget if you download the app right this second and use promo code J-B-P, Then I'll have a good argument to try to get my share of some of that money that they earned over the weekend, boy. The plentiful bounty. Yeah, because I don't know that many people that hit. It was tough. It was a hard one, clearly. Yeah, all that less. Yeah. I had to ride that less. Yeah, everything is less. And where is that? Fucked up. I can't believe none of y'all hit. Bums. Bums, dude. You don't know what I hit, boy? I'm fucking bums, man. It is what it is. You hit all the guests I put in 70 tickets Then sent my password to Keeb And had him do a few more I'm allowed to say that So Keeb got you No right They absolutely love you Keeb won you Whoever won it I learned how to go to entries and pass. Those are the only two buttons. Yep. That was it. Real quick, before we leave some of this Super Bowl talk, I do want to talk about Pook and the Cooler's tweet about Sam Darnall with the laughing emojis, and I'd like to talk about Chris Brown's Instagram post saying, well, I think it's safe to say they need me. I think it's safe to say they need me. That was before the numbers came out. Right. Yeah, I wonder who was in his living room. Good question. You don't like that, Breezy, he said that? No. No. A lot of people are fake. I don't like that he said that. I don't like that he said that at all. Oh, because, okay, on the hill, I get it, okay. Okay, I get it. Part of what I love about new Chris Brown is that he's not asking y'all for nothing. True. He's putting his albums out, Grammy nominated, he's touring, he's bringing on acts to tour with him some of the biggest acts in R&B not asking to be seen by y'all who won't allow him to fucking grow so don't turn around now in the moment in real time while you know everybody is watching his performance and say well it looks like they need me because I'm not even taking that as let's pretend it's not bad bunny shade I take it as it is it don't have to be bad that's how most people took it But I love the benefit of the doubt. Let's give it to him. The timing of that, how do you expect people to walk away with? I thought he was talking about America. America tried to cancel them and stuff like that. They did. And they had a lot of complaints. So I said, I guess I thought he was talking to them. I didn't take it as, like he said, the bad bunny joint. I didn't take it as that. I didn't take it as that. The they need me is clearly the Super Bowl. It's the people that Cooper Bowl have fun. though. Jay and all the people allegedly like that participated in canceling him. That's how I took it. But still, even in that, the only reason you would be saying that is because I just watched this halftime show. And obviously, yeah, look, this ain't what y'all thought. Y'all need me. It was, though. No, no, no. I know it was. There's no other real way to take his post. Yeah. I agree. I'm just saying that it was. It definitely was. I don't know what he was watching. Or who he was watching. There's a true value, and a lot of people miss it. There is sometimes a lot of value you get from just muting up. Yeah, shut the fuck up. If you just don't say a word. If you feel like that in the confines of your own home around your people, but to make it, put it there for public consumption, just a bad timing. Bad timing. I feel like, not saying, he's on the list of people I think will never get the Super Bowl shot. Do I think he would absolutely kill it? Yes. Of course he would. I think, let's just say it's some bizarro world that they may have even started to float his name around. This hurts it. This kills it. This absolutely kills it. It's like, oh, see, you know what? This is what I'm talking about. Take it back out. Never mind. Because you see how the Grammy started warming up. You know, you won a Grammy last year. You're there this year. So it looked like a corner was being here. And then you step on, you get in your own way and do this. That's the thing, right? I totally agree with you, Freeze. Like, his point was front-facing, but by now he should have enough information to know that there's a fight being fought behind the scenes involving your name. Like, when they let you do all of that Michael Jackson practice tribute rehearsal and then 48 hours before snatched it from you, that wasn't about fanfare. That was about whoever's back there pulling strings. So, I mean, I didn't love it from Chris. And I think he's done so much just growing and good press. Yeah, you kill it. This is a regression. I hated to see this. That's it. And I love Chris as a collaborator. So I wouldn't even want Bad Bunny to think you're talking about him in case I get a Chris Brown and Bad Bunny fucking roll. Which would be a slap. An absolute slap. Absolute slap. Pook and Niku are more of the same. horrible timing with your crying laughing emojis Sam Darnold tweet laughing crying emojis Sam Darnold and this is when Sam might not have been having the greatest of games of games so no no no you don't you don't shut up especially to a division rival especially that we just played y'all last week Wait, wait, just go over there. We said she made something. What? What's their relationship? Nothing. You just randomly, why tag him? Like, why? Division rival. Okay, it's just that he played bad. And they played the week before. Division rival, they played the week before. The other two times they played were absolute shootouts. The score was like 50 to 47. Got it. 43. There is tension. Gotcha. But when your opponent just won the Super Bowl. You got to shut the fuck up. or is on his way to winning, mute it up, dog. You got to play it twice this year. What are you talking about? At least. We just want you home. There ain't nothing to talk about. Fuck. There's nothing to talk about. Even if we lose. Even if we lose. You're not here. We're the reason you're not here. I'm the reason you're not here. Yeah, yeah. What are you talking about? So I love the Seahawks clapping. Yeah, because whatever you got to say about Sam Darnold's Super Bowl performance, he arguably had it against the Rams. Like, that's the game he needed to show up. Yeah. And he showed up. And he showed up. He showed up. And he did what he needed to do to win. So Puka, just horrible. Horrible. The value in beauty. It's okay to be quiet. It's okay to not say a word. That's all I got on that. Moving on, moving on, moving on. Wells, where were you? All of the fights? Yeah. Yeah. It's the fights. You want to start with? I'll start. Let me start because I'm going to end somewhere. Let me start. I want to start with the Hornets-Pistons fight. Okay. Okay. The other night for you non-basketball people, the Hornets, who have been red hot, they won that game. So they're now on a 10-game win streak. Also, they snapped Detroit's nine-game win streak. They're surging since they got all of their players back, and it looks like they could arguably make the plan. It also looks like Detroit is on their way to a number one seed. So, I mean, if they win the play-in in the first round, we potentially have the Hornets versus Detroit. But that's neither here nor there. Part of why Detroit is so good, this is bad boys 3.0 now. It is. For sure. Jalen Duran is big as an ox. Isaiah Stewart. Isaiah Stewart looks like he wants to rumble with everybody and get it on. That's before you get to the Thompson boy. Cade is 6'8". Like, these are big boys, and they want to fight everybody. And they've fought everybody The Knicks ain't beat them all year And that's where I'm going Part of that to me is Your soft Toughness, yo Who the Knicks? Yes, okay So Jalen Duran gets into it with some dude from the Hornets who I can't name He puts his whole hand in his face Much more Boom Homeboy swings on him but they're holding him back Boom, so they're holding him back Jalen Duran's backing up but he's still looking tough He ain't running, he's just standing it. So then Miles Bridges takes offense to that and they start squaring up and they get it on a little bit and now they pull Jalen Duran back. They pull Miles Bridges back and now here come Beef Stew off the bench in a t-shirt getting it on with Miles Bridges. And boy did I have a smile on my face. Talk about absolutely loving violence in the NBA. It was me. It was me because somebody needed to do that. Yo, you are taking the thoughts right out of my brain. I'm so happy that shit happened. And I think the Pistons are tough. They're tough, bro. I don't think anybody looked bad in this fight. No. I think both sides did exactly what they had to do. But boy, was I grateful that there was a team. Let me tell you something. Isaiah Stewart appears to be super tough on the court. I don't hear much about him off the court. Mouth Bridges on the other hand You hear a lot about him I've gotten a report about On the court Off the court In the strip club Out the strip club In Charlotte Outside of Charlotte What? Yes I saw it No yes I saw it He was the right one I loved that he was the one that ended up with the Isaiah Stewart square up. And the Knicks, who look better and are surging, and if you want to go through the East, then you'll have to probably play Detroit or Boston or all these teams that you're going to need to be tough for. I hope they saw that game, and I hope they soaked some of that up. Jose Alvarez is going to help with some of that because he's tough. He just knocked homeboy out last week or last month or whenever. He's going to help with some of that. And we have another player that reminds me of Jose Alvarez, which is Josh Hart, who is extremely tough. So that landed me to the damage that's been done from Josh Hart sticking his finger in Jalen Brunson's ass when they won the end-season tournament. Seriously, that's not tough. Seriously. That's the opposite. I know it sounds like I'm here for the jokes and I'm here to be, yo, and I'm dead ass that this is my correlation. I'm sorry that that landed me here. But, yes, dog, other teams are watching the cup. And this what y'all doing? This what y'all doing? Other teams who already felt like Carl Anthony Towns was soft. Well, that's been a thing. Who already felt like the Knicks were soft. Every NBA player with a podcast goes on their podcast to say the Knicks are soft and they're not about nothing because they're soft. And you take that moment to stick your finger up these niggas' ass and you are the tough one on the team. Maybe that's why you didn't. I'm not. That's why he allowed me to take a nap. That's a wild one. You know what I'm talking about, nigga? You don't say nothing, nigga. Ah, nigga. Yeah, nigga. Take these figures. Shut the fuck up, nigga. I'm home, nigga. Ah. Holy, you're not going to do that? Yeah, dude. Because I'm saying, when I first saw it, I was a little pissed off, but then I came around to my ignorance to college culture. Yeah, yeah. Play it around. So I told Tom, I didn't go to college. I get it. Frat boy humor. Whatever y'all want to call it. It wasn't until the Hornets fight that I said, damn. That's why you can't figure it. That's why you sound so ignorant. That's why you can't figure your man's ass, yo. That's why you win the trophy. Because the rest of the league are going to look at you like you chum. There's a bunch of other reasons. I was happy to see them fight. I'm dead ass. I was just happy to see them all. You got this move in true. Yo. What? Yes, she's got it. Hey, yes, she's like skinned. Oh, yeah. Maybe it's Maybelie. That boy's good. Hey. You look good? You look good, boy. Go ahead, man. Let's touch your skin, boy. And you got some jeans on. Ooh. Feeling good. Feeling right. Go ahead, you say it. Hold thighs out. Disgusting. I couldn't agree with I don't even know what you're about to say But I agree with everything One old school basketball Taking a And the Detroit just been running around Here bullying everybody Out there Stewart be bullying niggas Him and my man from Indiana with the tattoos Yeah Nobody in the league Don't want to fight them Miles Bridges in the league Like nigga I don't give a fuck about Boop And when they got in the middle Miles hit him with a couple Boop boop No they got his own Cushion Yeah And then they said The African dude That got in the fight They said he sold mild-mannered, they were shocked to see him go crazy like that. Because he just kept trying to get out the niggas. He wouldn't let them hold them down. I appreciate that. And I think in the playoffs, it's like, nigga, I don't give a fuck who y'all are. Y'all not bullying me. I'm not bullyable. Let's rock. I think it sets the stage for the playoffs. That's the basketball we grew up on. I love Jalen Brunson. I love his dad, Rick Brunson. I'm a diehard Knicks fan. Yo, pick a piston and knock the niggas out. Pick a piston. Next time y'all play them, pick it. And you know why this hurt don't work if you can't fight. You know? If you pick that wrong fist, you're going to get picked on. Hey, hold him down. Hold him down. And you know who I like a lot? Because they was getting on Duncan Robinson for walking away from the fight. He looked so, he was back turned. He was out of there. But again, you should know your friends that are that are with the shits and you should know your friends who need to get away from the scuffle when it's happening. Duncan Robinson strikes me as daddy ain't trying to throw no hands. He just wants you some three-pointers. You know, I like a lot going for you some beast. I like Tobias Harris a lot, yo. He was in the middle of the main life and he was trying to break it up. He's the adult in the room. No, I absolutely love Tobias Harris, which is funny because when he was on the Sixers, boy did I have horrible things to say. And he stepped on me about it in one of the new games. But he was faithful about it. I heard everything you said. His family was great. He's great. But just he in the middle. He got to understand. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, you know what I'm saying? Hey, hey. That's my grandpa in there. That's my grandpa. It's close. Let me talk to you a little bit. My nigga, you're saying he learned me a little bit. Your whole vocabulary came out. You know, I saw that nigga family out. I'm just dead. I'm just brother. I just like, I like the joke. So get it off. Yes, he pressed me. But I just like how he carried it last year in the playoff against us. I just like how, and I like how he carried it in that fight. Yeah. He was there not to punch on nobody. But to be the adult, yo, you break it up, you move. I'm not scared. I'm not leaving. But my team's going to be all right. I like that. You need leadership. I like that. You need veteran leadership when you've got these young, athletic, good niggas. You need the veteran nigga to. Yeah. Resign him. I don't know. I think this might be a contract year. He's older. But you need that. Resign. Resign Tobias Harris. This is a Tobias Harris stand account. He really presents. He really presents. He's shook. God damn. He pushed you for the 10. Listen, how many Joe Buttons do you think it takes? It takes everybody's hair. Damn. That's like a lot. Damn, what was I about to say? Also, the other night, because it was fight night in the NBA, and we could breeze past this one, but the Timberwolves and the Hawks, Nas Reed versus the African dude and the Hawks. I hope he's African. If not, I just seriously typecast him. I didn't see that one. I didn't see that one. They got it on too? Really? Yes. Connect it. Face to face. Somebody gets stolen, bro. Nas Reed. What did Nas Reed do to homeboy? He got in his face like, oh no, he hit him with the ah. Hit him with the oaf. Hit him with one of these. No, it's a flinch. Ah. And then homeboy grabbed his jersey from the back like this. And then Nas Reed pushed him like that. And then it was. Mohamed Gai? I'm not saying his name wrong. I'll never say his name again. It's all right. Yo, stop. Some names I don't need. I'm not saying Come on I'm not saying no Hawks Who are the Hawks? Fuck the Hawks And Bootsy Bootsy's still Dancing the game He's trying his best To make his thing Ain't nobody there I mean the last 10 years In the NBA And I know I'm the old man In the room We all are But like all that Three point shooting And no fighting And you can't touch nobody And it's a flagrant For plucking somebody And all that shit To me it's just As a person who grew up In 90's basketball Like that shit is a turn off To me I like the physicality I like seeing people Fight I like hard fouls I like to be And I get all the problems with it, but I don't give a fuck. I like the camaraderie. He hold the nigga jersey for real, bro I like the camaraderie. Yes, my dog if somebody puts Jason Brunson on his ass He's the MVP car. Anthony Towns has to come slam the shit out of them like that That's how you Yo. And after that hornet's bite, they kept showing that there was a police presence. Large police presence standing by both locker rooms. Yo shout out to Streaker Dude during the Super Bowl too I got it Yo a Streaker Dude because they didn air but he streaked Okay And he had on some shit And he had on the meta stage Okay While he did it So he was able to record his entire streak experience. And this is the same guy who streaked last year or the other year and bet on himself. Oh, okay. So he made a hundred and some thousand dollars. He went to jail, bailed himself out with the wings. Oh, fucking plus. They were famous. Yeah, thanks to him. So he streaked. Again, no, you got to predict it. Hey, nigga, if you free next year, would you hit a Reddit or something and just say what you got to get it done? I'll put some money on the streaker. You're too rich for this question.

This one involves a dear friend of ours, friend of the show, friends of the show, man friends of the show. Zaire Franklin on an episode of 520, their Super Bowl wrap-up episode. Things got a little heated between Zaire and Jeff T. Like to hear it? Here's a clip. Who got more money? The league? We talking league players. Slayers. Now you. You And we both make it out so you talk about no Players which we got money to is just a different math. They don't make no difference They wait soccer players got more money than all of us We can have a conversation I Yes, you mad because it was a national holiday in Europe I just like household names. You're taking this somewhere else. I like household. I like household. You are not a household name. You are not a household name. Okay. That's what I'm saying. So like, in your NBA career, you wasn't a household name. So like, are you making my point? But that's what I'm saying. I know the household names in the NBA. Household names get the game. You know what I'm saying? No, I don't mean to keep moving. So clearly, you win the game. You win the game. I'm trying to understand. What's your point? You keep trying me. Don't disrespect my name. Hold on, Jeff. Don't disrespect my name. You know my name. Zayers! Zayers! Zayers! Zayers! I am going to continue this clip, but I'd like to see how y'all feel halfway into it. I don't like it. I think they play so much. I don't think it was necessarily personal. And he was trying to make a point. And I think emotions ran a little high. But I think they so silly they was playing. talking about like the main niggas on a football team and the main niggas on a basketball team get different social recognition. Which is true. We say that all the time. Like, we say that. I mean, we've had that talk. Yeah, it's like that. It went a little different, but we had it. You know what I'm saying? So, and then Jeff started talking about money. And if you look at it from a money perspective, the NBA niggas do technically make more money than a lot of the NFL niggas. So I think, again, Ego's gotten to it, and it made a hard left turn that we shouldn't have went. But I think it was all in fun, actually. When I first heard it, I was like 100% like Zaire was right. Listening to it just now, I still feel like Zaire handled himself well, and I like the way he's like, look, let's go somewhere else. Let's not go this direction. I heard what you heard, though. I think Jeff was being funny, and then he just doubled that. That's where Ego comes in. Like I said, once you see you piss somebody off, just stop. Just be like, all right, well, I see I hit a nerve I didn't mean to. I'm just fucking with you. But he kept doubling down almost like I'm not going to. Especially if you've watched the Colts game. Like, slowly but so far, you got to push right here. Like, I'm cool. My bad, my bad, my bad. And that's how you pull back. Hey, y'all both from the town. Y'all are homies. Yeah. Like, this is the Super Bowl edition of your show. So, great to have an all-pro player that led the league in sacks up here. Tax. I mean, tax, tax. A bunch of money. Yeah, great to have him up here to kick it about it. That's how I feel when Zaire's up here. It's like, wow, yes, we can have this talk. But, I mean, it's all in fun until it ain't. Right. And at some point in this clip, which we'll get to, the fun stop. That's important. The fun is stop. I was just calling him by your last name off. I don't know your name. It wasn't funny. Yeah, now it's like belittling now. Now it's like I'm just trying to demean you. Unless you being silly. Because we'll come up here and do shit like that in a silly way. When you see it start affecting them, now Jeff Eagle going to kick in and be like, yo, nigga, I can start doubling down instead of – because now where we from is like, yo, don't disrespect me. It's borderline threatening, like, yo, stop fucking playing me before I do something to you. So now Jeff Eagle going to kick in and say, or what? But that's the part that makes you double down. When I heard it, Zaire didn't come off to me that way. And I know Zaire, but in the clip he was saying, Jeff, we're lying. People are lying. Come on, you're taking it somewhere where this don't have to go. You're playing on my net. Let's have the talk like adults. I thought that was a great way to get somebody's guard in. I'm not threatening you. I'm not trying to take it there. Let's have a good talk. Let me continue with this clip. So we don't got to like I don't remember your last name I pulled off the guy That's disrespectful And he called Zyre Smith who isn't exactly an NBA legend I don't know who Zyre Smith is at all The Sixers drafted Mikael Bridges And traded him for Zyre Smith Who basically never played again Oh I remember that I do remember that But just so we're clear First of all In a room full of men, it's important to know when the tone is changing, too. Yes. I think that's part of just man language. Like speaking without speaking. Jeff either. Who do you think started that? Jeff. I don't even think he's. He's been on purpose. The one thing that Jeff said to me that was out of bounds. Because I don't think calling him Zia Smith is out of bounds. If we silly, if we playing. Bro, we play worse than that up here. We be out of bounds too sometimes. But, you know what? It's only out of bounds. It's about communication. It's out of bounds once somebody has expressed to you, I'm not playing. I'm done playing. I don't play like that. I'm working on my name. I'm building my name. Please stop. You tell me about who else get money. Oh, that's cool. But I'm a football player. This is the route that I chose. This is how I want to build my legacy. Legacy is important to me. Say it lets it be known that legacy and his last name and how he carries it It's important for him, especially in the league with all they go through. So you got an active player on you. You got an active player on you, Cal. Not somebody that's retired. Not somebody looking to be retired. You got somebody on a team. And players watch these podcasts. I think the bigger shot, which was unnecessary, was, nigga, when they interviewed you, I didn't know who the fuck you was. Right. I think that's way more out of bounds than calling him out of his name. He said, yo, tell them the truth. Remember, they like, yo. I ain't here all pro linebacker. I'm like, who the fuck is this nigga? It's all doubling and tripling down when somebody that you care about is saying, yo, please stop. You're taking this somewhere where you don't need to go. I'll keep playing it. All right, bro. We're trying to be on. What you really trying to be on? That's what I'm saying. You can be taking it somewhere else. We had a combo like we at work, bro. What you want, bro? You ain't got to do all this, man. They put me on a jumbotron. They didn't put you on a jumbotron. They put me on a jumbotron. They're all pro. Have you ever been on the NBA? No, have you ever, like you was the one-time All-Star, I promise you, I'm going to get another Pro Bowl before you get into the All-Star. Yeah. That's where it's over. They triggered you all over the fucking head. I'm going to pause this. They've clearly turned up at this point. Yeah. Also, an important man language to note by Joe Budden, know when something is a sensitive area that you broach in for somebody else. Don't take that and weaponize it. Already, this was a sensitive topic from go. Yeah. For a retired NBA player and an NFL, active NFL player to have, though. Like, we can have it. We ain't shit. We ain't athletic as hell. Nobody can talk about what we're talking about. But for them two to have it, this is a – and now we're tossing around accomplishments and accolades and who did what. Most athletes are egotistical, bro. Okay, but now we've approached a sensitive area now. So and all the laughing in the background that that's cool until she's not thinking not yeah I was a captain of every fucking I was a captain of every fucking time I was going How many years you've played? Calm down gang like niggas really fucking me I'm gonna be carrying out here And I came in late You was an early pick I was a late pick And I got out the fucking door So watch him up when you're fucking me Alright bro now You're really fine Alright people are actually What's the feeling you're saying? Real rap You know I have to do this Hey we have to do this You can watch it Get the fuck out of here We live in that We live in that We lied. If you have a good career, bro. Don't disrespect my name. That's what? See, that's. How many Jeff Teagues? That's a good one. So I've already made my position clear. Please stop playing with me like this. Now you're about to be passive aggressive and call me tough guy and yada. You're a good career. Jeff didn't do too much to massage the situation. I will say that. He later on apologized, which I'll play because I don't think it's fair to play this and not the apology. And we love all of these guys glad they piece that up and it's over but boy today I've been a little friends yesterday. I'm gonna say we don't have to do everything is cool You know Man here is it again, but just don't respect my name Fuck out here you good wait a second fuck out here you good. Don't do your thing You're tough as shit. Yeah, this is a lot. Sorry, Jazz. That's what I'm saying. We didn't have to be there. It's the football day. It's the football day. It's the football day on 520. You can get the fuck out of here. I'm going to get the fuck. That's what I'm saying. And at that point, I got to say that Zaire Franklin handled himself extremely well. I had him. I was like, yo, salute. Just keep in your composure because he was clearly being provoked right here. Yeah. Nigga said I learned from the best. Why you up like this? Get the fuck out of here. Stop. I'm done with the clip. I thought you were going to play an apology I am But no, I'm saluting him for that When you see somebody trying to get you to break character Or get out of your norm And you don't react It takes self-discipline Everybody ain't got it You told me he was proud in the text No, I just said salute We saw that play develop I know Hey, I'm still saluting you I'm going to salute you again I see nigga I'm speaking I see that Niggas try to trick you out Just about how you look Like a clown in front of these cameras And shit And you held it down You got it the first time You texted boy I wasn't talking to you And you know You know I'm waiting for you I got some shit I got some shit I promise you Let's get it Nope Let's get it No I got you I got you You Me Yeah you We can do it now then Let's do it The shit you be saying And playing around like it's not you I'm on to you I've watched you I've been sitting here for a minute. I let it slide because I don't play them COE games, but I like to let people know that I see what they're doing. Now, if you continue to do it and I let you know I see it, I will respond. Now, let me respond. What are you speaking of? No shots? It's no shots. Again, I'm not with the shooting. I don't do that shit that you're doing. I clarified a question for the audience. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. What do you say? Because hold on, we do that a lot. Interruption. Stop, hold on. I just understand. We got to stop picking and choosing. If you feel that way towards me, You can't pick and choose with me Because I'm going to just keep going You have to be like that across the board The jokes are the jokes This is the gig The jokes are the jokes Anything that I say to you Is not a disrespect to anybody That you love or that you deal with It's more like Shout out to Mr. Peace Don't shout my woman out If I can't shout yours out No I can't You don't let anyone speak about your wife Or your children at all That was a boundary that you set that I respect. You have? I set a boundary as well that you don't respect. You don't respect it. No, you're picking and choosing. Because you don't respect it. They respect it. You don't respect the boundaries. Okay. Okay. That's what I'm talking about. I'm speaking to a person that chooses to step over the boundaries. That's all. All I'm saying is I'm talking to you. I'm here to perform. I'm here to have fun. If I feel like If something came out on the show And I'm cracking a joke about How you may be overprotective It's funny You can't decide what's funny to me though And I again have a boundary set Leave my family out of your jokes And what's the boundary? I just told you Leave my family out of your jokes Okay you gonna tell anybody else that? The room don't do it Everybody do it No they don't I'm speaking to you Because you do it And you set it off You'll do it Again, I pay attention to this We go in the circles We are We go in the circles And you're my man I love you He folded We go in the circles Hey Mark We go in the circles Ain't no gas here Ain't no gas It's not my fault It's just about I'm just trying to keep it light So we don't look like the thing We were just criticizing For making bad TV It seems like y'all trying to take The fight award away from 520 It's not a fight It's not a fight Nah, but if you feel Listen, if he feels that way I'm going to respect it I just feel like It's the thing It's funny It's fun I don't It's not talking bad About your family to me Now you say things Oh you're not home And shit That could be taken A certain way I say things like what I'm not home I'm doing this You play And I have to eat that He's saying So I'm going to get him as well No no no The reason why I don't play with him Is because Hold on let me say this too We joke back and forth The reason why I don't play with him Is because he said That I said something before That was like He told him that That I said something before That was out of line And he never came to me So when I heard that I did that I said I'm not going to play With him like that I don't want to play If a nigga ain't gonna come to me and tell me I don't really care about nothing that's going on with me That's how I feel about you And what I feel about you is all jokes and love Okay, y'all can text each other later Y'all boring me now I try to let it turn up for a little bit There's nothing to turn up There's nothing to turn up No more beginning to do it No more beginning to do it I don't ever need a new reason to play. I love the call. I love that. That sounds so much better. Love it. Every version. That nigga just. Because he's right, but I agree with you. Like, I like you. I like you. My jokes would be a little funny, but he's right. I like you. You cracked a joke, nigga. I love when you started. But you cracked a joke. Yeah, but I got more relationship equity with him than you. That's what you need to say? And I love him more. But that's what you need to say. I love him more than you. But a nigga need to say that. Yo, I fuck with him. I knocked niggas out over him, though. You never did that. You never put no work in, too. That's what I'm saying. Look at him. He hates me, yo. I can't wait for you to go to Florida. Get out of the U.S. Move. Back at 520. So, yeah, some people get into random arguments on shows, and it is really awkward. And I'm glad that 520 has learned a lesson about that. It's not the random arguments. I ain't got shit. I Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, what's up? I don't care. Thank you. I'm doing awesome. Yeah, where you going? I'm going to the prize when you get dressed. What time did you get dressed? In the daytime.

We ain't got any trouble. Apology. We got to play it up out. These are guys, so we can't just paint one picture. They pieced it up. I got distracted. Except the fuck. I forgot. I forgot. We don't got nobody. I didn't hear this. Here we go. Shout out to Z. Yo, that's my dog. Me and him go back and forth every day on and off camera about basketball topics and football topics. We always compare who's out, what, who do what. So shout out to him. It's all love. We dapped up yesterday after the show. We all talked about these niggas got on my ass yesterday. Mike got on my ass talking about, hey, he's a girl when I said that or whatever. He was like, nigga, we five to him. We all won. So I appreciate that. And I apologize to him last night about the show about disrespecting his name. Yes. Look, good show. He got hard about his legacy and what he's going to build and all the things that he got going for the Franklin. So I apologize to him about that. Y'all know I don't give a fuck about my accolades and all that shit. So whatever he said to me, it's all good. Yeah, but Jeff got a ring. Yeah, no desire would be here on the Tuesday, but he is on vacation. My boy is free. Obviously, the coach wasn't on shit, so he is enjoying his time. And ice texting him. I'm on vacation. You put out yesterday, went across the NBA. Now let's get to it. The Pistons took care of the horses. All right, all right, all right. So that was the apology. Shout out to the 520 boys. I love that apology. Me too. Yeah, so you got to make people apologize. He's got press. That's all, yeah. He's got to do that. I wasn't even thinking about What I said to you You ain't do nothing to me All of man I'm glad we all came together Zaya ain't the guy Zaya is the guy that I would just want to make angry But I'm pussy I would want to You would want to make angry I wouldn't I wouldn't want to make Zaya angry at all I have a long afternoon after a hug that with that. It's just built differently. Yeah, what it's like to be in your late 20s again. Yeah, no, I'm cool. More fights, more fights, more fights. More fights. We got to talk about Ja Rule on the plane with Uncle Murda and Tony Yayo. That was the one that I came in thinking about the most, man. And I was so glad to see. Let's start. First, a video came out yesterday that Yayo put Tony Yayo. No, before any video came out. A tweet came out. It's important to start there. Yale tweeted, or murder, I don't remember, tweeted, you'll never guess who we bumped in. We bumped into Ja Rule on the airplane, and we got video. It's coming soon. Yes. So you're expecting it to be either a brawl or somebody getting chomped. Something's got to be happening. And if they're the ones tweeting it, you assume they're tweeting it because they came out on top because you don't tweet it if you didn't. I don't. Go by that rule. I'm not saying that I'm saying that's what they want you to think oh okay it's usually the opposite so they say that then the video comes out and it shows them behind them all in first class but sitting behind Ja Rule talking shit to him and then they showed there's a clip there's a blip in the screen and then they showed Ja Rule off the plane and 50 also retweeted it you know reposted it and they basically made it seem as if they scared Ja Rule off the flight and that Ja Rule and they said that Ja Rule kind of made it seem so he would get taken off the flight so he could justify not being on the plane with them. And I saw the comments going in. They were going crazy. My thought in that moment was something's missing from the story, and I wanted to know what it was. I didn't know who was right, who was wrong, but I just knew something was missing. But we didn't have no answers. And then TMZ found another video from a different passenger, not from Uncle Murda and Tony A, but from a different passenger, that showed what was happening in the gap. And there's a moment where Ja is standing up, and he's with the chicks, from what it looked like to me. He wanted to fight. He was like, what's up? and well he was with the shits in the first video that they put out the first video too yeah yo listen both of y'all are like a police ass both of them and then it cut real quick right even in that part that's true which to make it seem like they were getting airs off and he didn't say shit right then you see the video that you speak to and he was like yo listen what we doing we could do this right now what's up right it didn't look like no back down at all no Punditon But yeah Try to frame it a certain way We too old to be doing that man I agree I fuck with them but they were too old to be doing that on the airplane Facts And you know I mean Say that for the young niggas That's what I gotta say about that You have a fight on a plane You get bad All that shit that come with that And it's just that That beef shit between them niggas, man, it's long-lasting. You can't tell anyone when to give up. Well, let's stay on that first point you made. Great point. Not only is it a federal charge and you risk being banned by the airline, but if you have enough infractions, you'll be banned from the airport. Yeah. Boom. And flying is how you put food on the table for your kids. What plays a part in how you feed your family. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean? So traveling, et cetera, et cetera, is how you're getting around, getting the gigs, flying to go do whatever the case may be. That shit is whack. I have a lot of thoughts about this. I don't even know where to start. One, at our big age, I'm not. I can't speak for nobody else. Clearly, they got this lifelong, everlasting, never-ending beef going on. That leads to my second question. I get confused at Uncle Murder's participation. What was my question for y'all? I get it that he's riding. Yeah. That comes off the way to me. That comes off the way. Well, how? If 50 want to carry this on, and they want to carry this on with Ja, when I saw 50 at the mid-game, he basically said this forever, nigga. So, okay. I understand your way of thinking. I'll never understand The guy that didn't have Nothing to do with nothing Being so indebted To another man That you have to carry that out That's not My brain just don't I don't get that I don't get that Like why is Uncle Murder Recording me I agree Explain to me I mean if there's an explanation I mean I guess I'm in the loyalty And riding down For the team that you bought We should go for this I mean I mean you walking down the street And you get jumped I'm fighting. If you got a problem with a nigga, we fighting. But if I just see your ops sitting on an airplane and you're not there, I'm not starting to fight with you on video tape. Are you going to have a conversation with them? Probably not. Unless you did something. You get what I'm saying? We're too old to just be carrying our beefs like we're young boys. To me, that's a step further than we need to do. I think me and you, yes, we're too old. But I think the way that they carry themselves, it's some loyalty shit in there. Like your beef, I'm inheriting this beef. even if I wasn't there for the start or whatever, whatever, but if I'm riding with you I'm inheriting this beef because the flip side if we do got beef, right and let's just, I'm not saying that if this would, anybody has done this but let's just say Joss Peoples was on bullshit and saw Uncle Murda Dolo or something, they might roll him out because you down with them see that's like some real, I hate that too I hate it But I'm getting there. But I'm getting there because Jha got attacked. I'm sorry. My pushback to that is who would be Jha's people that you speak of? Like, Jha is a family man. I know. He's been a family man. That's awesome. Eric Gotti is gone. Played golf five times a month. Yeah, rest in peace. I know he's not on it. I said if he was on that type of beef. Cream is gone. That's what you risk when you're cool with a nigga that got beef. I'm not saying Jha's on that. We know Jha. Jha's not. We know. he ain't think about that shit like that man listen 51 to beef with jaw musically like that's established and he's got a lot of people in the public thinking and believing whatever perception about jaw they have cool that's understood outside of that jaw ain't a pussy he can't just see him at a bodega and fucking bust him upside the head he's gonna try to defend himself and the crazy shit is jaw's in better shape he might it might get rough it might not go the way they want it might get rough I didn't like anything about it but on the flip side Tony Ayo and Uncle Murder are also starting a podcast yes is there an excuse for this says some I agree with you I'd like that but some would say if I'm starting a podcast running around getting millions and millions million dollars it's not no because i just roll out we happen to be on the same plane which a few things about even then right nothing worse than your op being in first class with you like the right you're off you normally hope goes back to 27 and then you could deal with being frustrated that oh they're on the same flight on the plane oh something about this 10-10 flight everyone's on There's certain flights that everybody's on. And if you travel a lot, you should know what that flight is. They're coming from all the Super Bowl shenanigans. This flight is lit. So, none worse than that, one. And, two, my quick elitist thought. Exactly why you fly private. I know you're a little good. That is exactly why. And I get it. It's California. So, that ain't cheap. But you fly private because the last thing you want to do is turn around and see Uncle Murder with his phone. And calling you, calling you all types of bitch-ass niggas and suck-ass niggas and all types of shit directly behind you. Yeah, a few roads behind you. I was like, oh, shit. I'd rather be a 27F if it's my op. Honestly, fuck the first class shit. I don't want a nigga that would want to fuck me up sitting right behind me under any circles. Behind me at all, matter of fact. I don't even I think I think both Tony Yale and uncle murder are smart. They're not dummies I don't think they wanted to do nothing their job, but just kind of a column. It was a clown I'm in here troll. Nobody wants to lose their flight privileges At all not a soul. That's why we pay child support Child thing Yo, I hate to break. The child is reason number six. That niggas are paying their child support. I hate to break a deal. What? We doing it for our passport. We doing it so our license don't get suspended. What else? The kid is like fifth. Yo, that was special. Yeah. You don't want to get arrested. The warrant. That gets annoying. It's tough. It's tough. Oh my god I feel bad with y'all a little bit I talk about my business It was like damn Nigga just trying to catch a break You just had the incident over there Nigga just want to go on this flight Go home and look at this I'm going to tell you something That be the thing That flight home You just trying to get home You did anything you had to do Probably plan on going to sleep Relaxing Yeah, I was tired You know you can't go I mean Some of us are more privy To what took place, right? so many years ago. But is it a crazy world where we could just sit on a flight, I don't fuck with you, you don't fuck with me, I'm not going to say nothing. I mean, John Fitt was on a flight before. Yeah. They were on a flight before. John Fitt was on a flight. Oh, yeah, they did speak about it. I think they was mixing each other all across from each other. I think they're all over. Jeezy and Gucci been on a flight? But that's one of the other reasons that I'm looking at this a certain way. Because the main nigga ain't do nothing when he was in this flight. Gotcha. Well, he just knows. Be clear, when it was Jha and 50 it was a heavyweight match once upon a time. It was big dog versus big dog. And I feel like there are big dog rules. So 50 and Jha should be able to be on a plane and 50 is another genius. So he ain't nigga we flying. But these niggas I don't know. I don't know if it's the same story. Because the crew is always going to try to get something done so they could send it to and earn points yeah yeah I don't I don't I don't I'm glad nothing got shaken yeah glad all the video was out congrats to Yale and murder on their podcast and I think their podcast is something they would be great at even without all these shenanigans I think that's just that's just a funny story to tell if you never troll that nigga right if you don't say nothing to him on your first episode second episode yo so we would y'all Oh, we're here. You got it. Not the way. Just got to put your MC in front of y'all. We were lying to you the whole time. That's all you need. And then I'm such a bitch. I might have took the video silent. Look. Went home and put a voice over there. Right on there. Embellished. Embellished. I just said, y'all, look at this nigga right here. Sitting here looking stupid on me. Oh, my God. You know, another side of the coin, man. When it's up, it's up forever. Yeah, that's. Some niggas still live by that rule. Some niggas still I'm not judging it I mean certain things happen That you feel like is a line that can't That was crossed that you can't go back from I can respect that I just feel like once it gets down the line And now it's the man next to the man next to the man That's carrying that beef and we're 50 and 60 years old I think that shit is crazy Well you were just telling a story about your brother incident Yeah And you was like It was up Not up but you would check every once in a while To see where the niggas had Yeah but we weren't carrying the beef He was carrying the beef Oh cause he was doing it I was doing that to make sure they weren't going to be on the van. No, I thought he was. Yeah. Actually, over there. I thought it was mutual. I didn't think that he was still. I mean, it's mutual to the extent that somebody's trying to kill you. You ain't got that many options, but to defend yourself. But it wasn't like my brother wasn't looking for the beef. He was trying to stop. I went to the border to stop him. I was like, yo, you know, this shit should be dead, blah, blah, blah, blah. And dude was like, y'all just saying that's where the beef will stop. And we was like, yeah. But that's why dude ended up in jail. That's why he ended up dying in a shootout with the police. His brain didn't work that way Just making sure I did I bet you did Oh he home Yeah And he was looking for you Yes The last time he saw my brother He tried to shoot him in the gun jam So yeah Then he got locked up And he got locked up for like 15 years I was checking that shit to see when he was going to get paroled And then eventually he got paroled Because he caught a certain kind of charge. Megan's law, I could keep track. He was up in Pittsburgh. And I was like, University of Pittsburgh? No, I'm good. I'm busy. Whatever day that is, I'm busy. Carnegie Mellon. Yes. I'm with you. Stay alive. He's a killer. He kills people. I don't. I don't want to be on the killer board. I wasn't. What the fuck you want me to do? I get it. Mark's busy. Yes. I'm a bitch. I'm with you, though. Yeah, and then he died. So we good now Oh we good now I'll be at Pittsburgh March 4th Ain't that always dope When the nigga you know Would have killed you die I was so fucking happy Oh honestly Do y'all hear y'all I don't celebrate nobody dying But the nigga That made it hard You're not dying No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No No I like that guy. But, you know, that's how it be. I get it, man. Now, Pittsburgh, I'll be speaking again. Well, in more fight news or fight update news, rather, Glorilla and Bro-Rilla hasn't ended yet. Bro-Rilla. Yo.

When that shit first dropped. Yeah. Yo, we couldn't believe that so many women that had been drinking when the night was over, if you could just tell who was sad about their ex not called what? Wait, what? How are they long? Yo, they would, what? I would be looking from the VIP or fuck, and fuck who? Let me see who might have some action tonight Damn it, y'all ruined fucking Marvin's room drink Jerks I could see Kendrick in his house when Marvin's room was out too I'm just standing, we can do better Kendrick was always plotting This had been a 10 year plan Anyway, speaking of big threes, you guys see the J. Cole roll out? Got the Civic, got the Stevie player in the Civic You were telling about the trunk at the I'm not mad at it I love it I'm not mad at it It's on brand for cold That's why I like it It don't look like it's nothing That's like he's trying to That's his shit Yeah That's what he did before I'm bringing it back Yeah Yo you motherfuckers That been clipping up the pod They been clipping it up wrong And I'm here to fix it Okay Yes About time nigga Yo I'm Joe Budden That's ice we don't even look alike but y'all keep putting ice tastes on me instead of him put his name yeah officially spelled right ice spelled the right way no underscores or nothing that's really officially ice all week long Joe Budden says he hates the fucking J. Cole and he's I'm like yo I didn't say any of this stuff I didn't say that one I didn't say that Or I said Where you went for the art No You didn't like it No no no No no no no Like I said And we was in agreement Yeah Disc 2 was the better disc to me And I said that I said I was cool on disc 1 And they making it seem like I shit on the whole project That's not what happened And that's coming off Of your mixtape fatigue Like Four freestyles And I was able to explain why That ain't That ain't got nothing to do with I didn't think that you were Hard at the other Because you heard the entire you heard everything I said. All the tweets that I saw it was like I don't think that they listen to this podcast. Yo some of these people like I know one dude in particular who's like a diehard J. Cole stan I fuck with him and he was going crazy and I'm like yo bro did you hear the whole review? Like you you saying it like I shitted on this project. We were sitting here fighting saying that yo the better songs was here. These records like this too was great to me. This one not so much. What's the problem with that? This too is better. I like this one. There's no right or wrong. There's no wrong. Yeah, right. That's the other thing. Y'all are stating y'all's opinions, and y'all could do that. Like, people, I guess it gets murky when people start stating their opinions as if they are facts for other people to feel it. And I don't think that we'd be trying to do that up here. No, I certainly don't. My thing would be, if you're going to debate or if you have something to respond to what I said, then address what I said. When y'all telling me, like, I put a screenshot up of me listening to Old Dog. Oh, don't come around now. Don't come around, you just shit on the whole album. Well, I did not. And Old Dog, when we reviewed it, I said this was the first one that I ran back multiple times. So it's still on brand with what I said. You do a lot of fucking turning a puddle into a pool in an acting surprise. What do you mean? Like, even your tweet that you got off, which was, just want to say, Wally's album is better than everything that ever came out after. Like, that has nothing to do with, well, I'm speaking to my review up here that they were responding to. That's all I'm talking about. I do believe that every album that's dropped after Wale's album, his was better then. That has nothing to do with this. I agree. I got a lot of you. I agree with that. They be putting on me. What I'm saying is his hit, your mixtape critique, a portion of the album critique, along with tweets like that, be putting smut on me that I'm not saying. One. And two, the fucking Wale tweet. Sure. Of course. You know, I love that album as well. But there's been a Wale J. Cole thing In the past One and two To say that right this second Is the same thing I've said about Chris Brown and Pupa To say it right now You know what You know what that does There's a provocateur tweet Yeah that's okay Okay You know what Cool But I was listening to the album And I tend to tweet about what I'm listening to at times You do All the time It don't matter if it's old shit New shit And a thought will come to mind And I just tweet it And I was listening to Wale's album I'm like damn this shit is really good good yeah but you're too famous for a lot of the shit you do oh so what i'm gonna fuck about that i'm gonna i'm gonna stay me that's who i am oh my god i'm gonna stay me once we get into the i am who i am what we want to do joe but if this is who i am and i talk about that's how i've been using my twitter since i started it is to look most of the time is i got it i'm just i'm listening it's your word i'm just telling you how some of it can come off i'm not telling you to change I love you no matter what, nigga. Let's list them up. What? I respect it. I hate you. J. Cole says he's still releasing the It's a Boy tape. He just didn't want to flood us. Paul says it's necessary. Released on the what? It's a Boy. It's a Boy. When he made the little list of all his albums. Oh. The fall off being last. It's a Boy was before that. He says it's done. He just didn't want to flood us with the mixtape and the mixtape and the album, which is a double list. J. Cole is married, so I'm going to save my really great jokes and bits that I came up with during the week. I hate when that happens. Be right back, honey. Driving across the country to sell this album. That's on iTunes. Hand to hand, you know. Talking to the band. Then we're going on tour. Then you know the other. Yeah, he kind of. I love all of this, by the way. I love it. I absolutely love it. I can't sit on it because it's too great. But if you think, it is funny. And then once I start remembering that North Carolina is college capital of the universe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. J. Cole. He seems like he is retiring to like an AMA on his website, bulletin board shit. Says he's not trying to put another album. He's going to focus on production. For other artists. For other artists. He said even in that, it's not necessarily making the beat. It's helping with direction. He didn't word it like that. He said, because his wording was a little funny, he said something like, oh, the tricky semantics I have no interest In putting out a J. Cole album Right now Or at the moment Yeah That don't mean nothing And that could mean Honestly that could mean Again with this whole The fall off J. Cole has fallen off And now I'm doing things You know Remember he had the Kill Edward Personality He could do some other shit Rapping I could see that And if I feel like recording Then I'll record I may release here and there But I have He got freedom So that's He can do whatever the fuck He want right now Truthfully True Shout out to Cole Shout out to Cole And them numbers looked The predictions The projections Talking shit too, Freese The projections looked Talk to these Bruno Mars fans For a minute Yo, who was y'all Where they at again? I just told you The Mars fans in here Where they at Where they at Who was it? That nigga lost their voice It was Parks and And something to run with Park I still think I still think Bruno would have hit him up, but... We'll see in a couple weeks. We'll see. It won't be a mystery. No, the point wasn't... It wasn't like about 300 on the board. Is that how? Yes. Is it 300? Yes. It wasn't like about 300 on the board, though. Okay. Let's see. Let's see what Bruno do. Damn. It's not going to be that. We'll find out. It probably will be that. I know, but... It probably will not be that. I don't think it'll be that either. It's not going to be that. We'll see. But we shall see. I've been wrong before. Not often, but I've been wrong before. I don't think he's doing that. I just don't feel like that song is picking up the... It ain't. It's not. It's not doing the same thing. But he got the joint with Gaga that she performed. I like that song, too. Yeah, it's just fine. If the world ain't another thing to you. I do like that song. That's dope. And Gaga fucked with us, man. If any of the whites got an invite to the Bad Bunny show, I'm glad it was Gaga. Yeah. She fucked with us. You know what I like about her? She don't never break character. Like, that little, it might not be a character. Which is even scarier, right? That's really fair. All the time. For real, because when she accepted the award, she'd go up there and she'd do the whole neurotic shit. Yeah. I think she's that. That's right. Yeah, I'm about to say that. That might be. She got up there and while she was performing, she's still giving it to you. She can't. Maybe she had to rest the time. Maybe. She was up there. I just think she's such a great performer Not even just artist Just a performer period actress She's great at that shit She is She is a great Since we're speaking to artists who are who they are Summer Walker There was an issue with her meet and greet Y'all were talking about it ahead of time You know the story She was just Standoffish So Summer Walker did a meet and greet And there's a lot of complaints A lot of fans want their refunds And because they said she was standoffish She wasn't communicative She didn't do eye contact She didn't even want to be there So there's some backlash She's received backlash About her meet and greet I wonder if it was from the actual people That went to the meet and greet So I saw some of the A lot of times we get backlash But from the people that weren't wronged I ain't gonna hold you Personally Had I paid for a meet and greet and got this I would have been underwhelmed. Like she was sitting in like a director's chair it looked like. And it was kind of like the person's come stand right here. People come stand right here. And she was just. But question. Like people trying to hand. Like I made it. You know. You know. You know. Regular. Hey I made a painting for you. Yes. Question. Would you have bought a Summer Walker Beat? No. Why would you not have bought a Summer Walker Beat? I won't buy some. No. Because I have low expectations. Because you know who she is as a personality. Correct. It took him 30 years to learn Lauryn Hill's greatness. That ain't got nothing to do with it. Shut up. Never. The joke got him out of his playing. Here's the thing, though. Because earlier we were talking with Corey, and he stated that if you have anxiety and you know you can't show up like that, don't do a meet and greet. I disagree. Don't bring nothing else Corey asked. That's not what they're with. If I was a former Walker fan enough to pay $1,000 to go to the meet and greet, I know who Summer Walker is, and I embrace that. And I'm probably not going to be disappointed that she's standoffish because I know that she's standoffish. Right. She has a history of it, right? Yes. She's let it be known. As long as she's been. Social anxiety. She's let it be known from day one. It's social anxiety. It's the germaphobe thing. It's a lot of things. Like, she didn't tour for a minute. I disagree. Who told a lot of that. Now, reason why. You disagree with what? No, no, no. No, no. I disagree that if you know you have all of these social issues, don't do a meet and greet where your fans are going to want to come meet and greet you because now it looks like a money grab. We're talking about that. It may be a money grab. It may be a money grab. So your fans have a reason to be upset. If I pay $1,000 or how much was the meet and greet? I don't know. Whatever the dollar amount was for the meet and greet. and then I come to meet you and greet you and you stand off as you might not want to shake my hand because of whatever the case may be, fam, don't do a meet and greet if you know you have social anxiety. You're speaking from ideals again. Yeah. Yeah, I agree with you. I see both sides of it. First of all, I guarantee you, like Park said, it's three people complaining. And they're probably not the person that was actually, it was probably the girlfriend or boyfriend of the Silver Walker fan. Yo, very rarely do you buy a meet-and-greet ticket and everything is set up the smoothest at the meet-and-greet. That part, too. You often don't have a lot of time with the act. Sometimes security is rushing you out of there. Sometimes your picture might be blurry and they still say, yo, get the fuck out of here. It ain't all peaches and cream at the meet-and-greet. Sometimes it was supposed to be after the show or before the show or vice versa, so the artist isn't even in the right headspace. Yeah, sometimes. Yeah, exactly. You're springing it on the artist. The time is fucked up. We're running late. If it's before the show, we got to get this done in a timely fashion so the real show can happen. There's so many moving parts that have to do with a meet and greet, but let's get to math. If we're charging any price that you could think of. 500. I'm going to look for the price. But most times they like, well, I've been out the game for a while, so let me shut up. But $100, $150, $175, Chris Brown or some of the novelty acts get to charge more. But at $100 and $150 in 20 to 40 cities, nobody is turning that down because you're an introvert. It adds up. is most of the time that meet and greet money and the merch money and the after-party money are convincing and incentive to even get you to go in the store. Yeah, that's true. You're counting on that money. You're doing it for the money. Nobody's saying, yo, I hate the fans being this close to me and I hate germs, so I'm leaving a quarter million dollars on the table. And I think I hear this point, too, which is that, you know, don't sign up for something. because it puts the fans in the bad position. Don't sign up as an artist to do the thing that you can't do well. But the reason why I ultimately lay it on Summer Walker's side on this is simple. Again, the story is known. If it were her first tour and people didn't know and the fans were caught off guard, I think as a fan it's reasonable to expect the artist to be quote-unquote normal. But after all this time, all the information, the person who spends $1,000 or $500 on Summer Walker, they're a super fan. So they know she has anxiety. They know who she is already, and they still signed up for it. So that's why I'm like, I was going to add that. The people at the meet and greets are not your normal fans. You can almost wipe a booger on their fucking shirt and they're going to go frame it. Right. But for me, that's still more reason. Like, yo, you being in a room with 10,000 people, right, is not the same as you being in a room with 500. It's not the same as you being in a room with 50 or 100 people. Dog, if somebody spends their money, and this is a problem, if somebody spends their money and you know you can't deliver, don't take their fucking money. Oh, sorry. Bro, am I saying something wrong? You're not saying nothing wrong. You're speaking in a perfect world. Yeah. But I don't even think it's a perfect world to do shit. The niggas are going to take your money, even if they can't. And you're not having a right to bitch when you took my money and did that. Nobody's saying they wrong. I'm from a walker's side in this. I'm saying that. Your family, people not wrong. If I paid you for some shit and you didn't deliver on what I paid you for, I have a right to be mad. Here's why I see a little different. I don't agree that she didn't deliver. Technically, she did deliver. That's what I'm saying. I think she delivered because, again, a meet-and-greet could look a lot of different ways. And if I'm going to a meet-and-greet with somebody with social anxiety, I'm not expecting them to be hugging me and jumping on me and doing all that. I'm expecting them to take the picture. I get why a fan who doesn't know who would be disappointed. I'm just saying at this point, like, after all these years, you should know what a meet-and-greet with her is going to look like versus a meet-and-greet with Chris Brown. Chris Brown is going to jump on your lap. He's going to take great pictures. I don't expect that from her. So if I sign up for it. It's kind of like Yes you have a right To be mad if an artist is late But if I sign up For a Lauryn Hill show At this point I'm going to sound crazy Complaining In 2026 About her being late You know what I mean Not that I'm wrong But I know what I'm signing up for That's how I say it But Gotcha And Ishan Your example She has a choice And I don't know that To even be true Yeah That's the problem I don't We booking this And you're going to do X amount of Do the best you can with it Yeah, I'm on the side of the customer in most instances, bro, because it's like, yo, if I go buy a sandwich, you can say, yeah, you got a sandwich. That don't mean my sandwich isn't. It's a slippery slope, though, because, like, how much can you expect out of someone in a meet and greet? That's what I'm saying. Well, that's the other thing. Again, like, oh, he didn't hug me. He didn't give me a kiss. But that's the problem, because you watch what certain, I'm not just Chris Brown, like some other people started to kind of up their meet and greet. so now you get you might walk in with an expectation and summer walker has went from being completely distant from everything to saying i'm working on a little bit better and you know doing a little bit different at the show so the fam might think oh and now she's offering a meet and greet okay maybe now i'm going to get a little bit more than i might have would have gotten three years ago four years ago or something like that i think they did because three or four years ago she wouldn't even have did it that's fact right three or four years ago we canceled a tour because I don't want to go out here with all your people. So they might think there was some progression and that the meet and greet is going to go differently and wow, this is all I got? I mean, some of that stuff looked like some of the people had drawings. You know how they come up with it. And they couldn't even... She was just like, oh, okay, give it over there. Like that, even if you could have said thank you, took it, put it to the side, I get it. People felt like they got robbed. I get it. I get it. I get it. I'm not mad at the fans for feeling the way. I just, you know... I just, I just, I just, I ultimately, like I said, if it were her first tour, I feel differently about it. Yeah. That's, that's all. But I do feel like even though it's not her first tour, she should attempt to mask, mask it better. Yeah. I can say that to issue's point. Like if you're going to continue to be a touring act, then at some point, learn how to fake a smile. I think, I think we, uh, and we can move forward, but I just was having a conversation. Same thing about basketball. I think that we are underestimating people's dollars. Like, fam, somebody might have saved up their money to come see you perform. Somebody might have saved up their money for that meet and greet. The same way when niggas in the NBA be taking rest days and nothing wrong with them, this single mother or this single father might have saved up two or three months and booked it in advance when you come into their city. And now you don't play. Like, yo, you don't get no money back. You get what I'm saying? Like, yo, dawg, we're leaving the customer, the consumer, and the fans out of these equations now. And I think that's fucked up. So then, you want to just move on? No, I was going to say, you said you were talking to your man about that. So you must have been talking about how the Utah Jazz should be arrested. Why? What happened? Jaron Jackson's first game, they go into the fourth quarter with a seven-point lead. As soon as the fourth quarter starts, they take Jaron Jackson out the game. They take Markkanen out the game. They take all their best players. I forget the other one. The best players out of the game, they send their bench out there. Of course, the Magic come back and win the game. And this is only happening because you want a pick. You want a better pick. Trust the process, baby. It's horrible. Philly's finest. Shout out to Sam Hinkie. The Wizards are doing the same thing to the Knicks, and they should be arrested. The Knicks get their pick if it's not top eight protected. So if it's the ninth pick and after, the Knicks get the pick. teams are trading for injured players playing salary cap games and tank games and they're doing it in plain sight. This already happened to the Knicks with Dallas when Dallas tanked the very last game of the season in that Derek Lively draft and then they got the 10th pick which they got to keep for whatever reason. But Adam Silver at some point has to do something about this because they're playing in your face. And they're fucking up these trades that are contingent upon, hey, top five for Tech. You get the traffic. There's too much money at stake and these players are too great to play like this. I agree. I agree. I agree. Yeah, the Wizards are good. They find the loopholes in there. I went to the game the other day. Which game? Wizards Nets. It'll be so good for the Wizards if all of this tank and they still end up giving the Knicks. They're going to be tough. I hope some Spurs shit happens. I know. They're going to be all right. They're going to be all right. What else? What else? What else? Well, also to Isha's point about just customers getting robbed. Did you guys see the Chipotle dude on that call the other day that got leaked? I did not. No. What happened? Oh, God, I got to play it for y'all. I know you got to. Got to play it for y'all. Love to hear some Chipotle beef. This dude was on his company fourth quarter call or something like that and said basically that he learned and the company learned that 60% of their audience makes 100 grand or more, which enables them to raise their prices and lean into that yada, yada, yada, yada, yada. Please play that. Learn that 60% of our core users are over $100,000 a year in income, in average household income. That gives us confidence that we can lean into that group in a more meaningful way, whether it's the solo occasion and for group occasions, to really drive meaningful transaction performance in the year. Run it up. That's what he said. Yeah. We check up these prices. That's a fancy way of saying bleed them for money. For sure. You said you're not man again. If you're talking about market research and you're figuring out who your primary demographics are, now we can start offering more services that we can charge a higher price point to reach that demo. You're taking away from that. See, I heard it different. I thought he was going to raise the prices for the shit they were already giving them. See, we don't have enough. But, I mean, that was a real short question. So from hearing this, it sounds like you believe what he's saying, and most people, me included, hear it as okie-dope. What do you mean as okie-dope? Yeah. I'm with raising your prices because of inflation, the cost of things in the market, or just because of how you are doing, what it costs to run your company. I'm not necessarily with raising it because I learned that my audience has more. Because I can, right. Yeah. you think every time somebody raise their price and blame it on cost of goods or inflation it'd be that no yeah no that's why i think this is regular shit that's happening corporate they just found something for me oh shit they can afford it oh then very very different hearing it oh for sure thinking that it's happening and hearing the ceo of a company say i'm only we're raising our prices yeah because y'all make too much and we learned that yeah that was the most interesting part that That's not what I got from the phone call. These companies are buying data from everybody. Whoever is selling it. You know where that comes from? Whoever is selling it. Look, Chipotle rewards. Sure. That's all it is. Every time you put Chipotle on it and track all your shit, they buy that data and they see your spending habits and say, oh, shit, you're making boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. And it's 60% of y'all doing it. I'm going to play it again just to hear. At 60% of our core users are over $100,000 a year in income. in average household income. That gives us confidence that we can lean into that group in a more meaningful way, whether it's for solo occasions and for group occasions, to really drive meaningful transaction performance in the year. Yeah, see, I didn't say lean into that group in a more meaningful way. It's like I'm trying to – Now I'm going to start offering them more stuff at a higher price point. So that we could – yeah, I didn't take a turn of what y'all took from it. I mean, I think on his face what you said is right. I think you're 100% right in how you heard it. I just don't trust it. I mean, that's another conversation. Based on what? Like, yo, I know that a big part of our demo can afford this. I'm going to start offering them this. Well, I might have been hesitant or resistant to offer them something at a higher price point. So what kind of stuff can you offer them other than rewards? Yeah, because it's Chipotle. Yeah, that's what I am. And he said, yo, rather a solo event or a group event. That might have been a broader scale. It might have been corporate events. It might have been other shit. I don't know. I need more information. A lot of context. with some people. Yeah, I mean, we don't... So I can hear how it sounds nasty. We need more information. I just don't... Yeah. Business to make money. Dog, you want to talk about business? Look at all the layoffs going on. Motherfuckers are laying people off even though they revenues are up. Amazon. This shit is crazy, bro. You're like, yo, big businesses always go do what big businesses are going to do. Always. Whether we agree with it or not, it's just the way of the world. Like, I think, you know, I think it's unfortunate. I don't fuck with that, but this shit is getting rough out here. So I just think it's par for the course Don't fuck about you We're getting out of here soon I do have a serious question for y'all If y'all can help Sure How serious is it? Not too serious Can y'all think of some things That are cornier Than guy twins Doing content together Whatever that Travis Scott James Harden shit was this weekend. I'll put on that list.

Why did you write that up there? It's been in the news today. Probably as we were hitting Showtime, it popped up. So that's probably why you missed it. But Dolce, salute to Dolce. She seems to have come out as a lesbian, affirming her truth, affirming her identity. For a long time, she identified as bisexual. She said that and talked about it. And then she updated her Instagram profile and added to a list of other things lesbian. So, you know, I always love when people can live their truth and live out loud and be happy. And she seems to be healthy and happy. So shout out to Dolce, one of my favorite artists. and, you know, setting the example. Definitely, definitely, definitely. Shout out to Dolce.
