Speaker 2 (02:37):
So he was back when he used to run up
on the corner and everybody used to run.
Speaker 8 (02:40):
No, they did not run. They know I never seen
nobody run. That's just nobody. Well that was when I
was That was his first show he did. That was
that dance. Since he did the show, I got two
hundred dollars. He didn't know about it. It was a
promo run. I didn't want to promo run and he
did the show for free. I walked away with two hundred. Yeah,
you know, still managing shit these days.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
You still kind of the brains behind the operation though, right, you.

Speaker 8 (03:05):
And Becuz I'm gonna say this, man Wade, they canna laugh,
he can laugh. We know No, we just know our parts.
We know how to play our parts. I'll be in
the field more. I go and do the research. And
when when it's that time, I called Gil, come on,
we gotta go. We gotta go do this meeting, and
then it come and then then it's time to go
to legal, you know what I mean.
Speaker 7 (03:25):
So, I think what's so great about us? We know
our roads.
Speaker 8 (03:27):
I think we come from an environment whereas though everybody
ego egoed.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Out, I could do it by myself.
Speaker 7 (03:32):
I don't need nobody.
Speaker 8 (03:34):
And we understand our roads in the organization, and we
understand where we're trying to go, and I think that
helped us coming from a city like Philadelphia. It's a
real hard city because in Philly, a lot of us
are subscribed to being thorough.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Cool and tough for no reason.
Speaker 8 (03:51):
It ain't it ain't paying no bills, it ain't sending
no kids to college. Me and Gil cracked that whole
shit and laugh at it. So you know when you
see us, we just laughing and shit like, this is
just a joke. This is a joke, you know what
I mean. So we just try to stay focused on
that and the main goal and to show young kids,
because the young kids they really what it's about because
(04:11):
they soaking up the game.
Speaker 7 (04:12):
As adults, they already got to figure out.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
You can't tell them nothing. They stuck in their way sometime.
Speaker 8 (04:17):
So I just we just try to focus on the
youngins and just try to show them it's another way.
There's another route you could take in it's media route.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
The media route.
Speaker 8 (04:25):
You know, you can basketball players money out this motherfucker,
and football players money baseball money. So it's like you
could take the media route. You ain't got to know
how to play ball, you know what I mean. You
ain't got to know how to wrap. You can just
take another route. And that's what we're just trying to
show them through the platform the summer.

not better than you and you not better than me,
and our journeys is the same. It's about who won't
give up and who not At the end of the day,
people be this close to their dream, and it's like,
you only need one motherfucker to say yes and everything
that you work hard for and all the l's you took, and.
Speaker 7 (20:53):
That's what I'm showing you in this book, a bunch
of l's. Then yes, yes, it's start coming.
Speaker 8 (20:57):
But it was time when I came home and I
was like, you know, I come home and I'm like,
I'm you know, every day Gil getting a call from somebody, Yo,
what's up with your cousin? Is that nigga crazy is
here on medication? Because I'm running down the street screaming
the shit six o'clock in the morning. Anythink I'm crazy?
I think that's quite normal. But whatever the case is,
that ain't normal.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
But I like it. Yeah, all right, so so.
Speaker 8 (21:17):
Motherfuckers is like but but you know what, I always
look at it like, damn, I'm out of jail. I'm
happy at shit. This is a beautiful place outside of
the poverty. So what I did was to give you
good energy. I made the ghettos of Philadelphia my backdrop.
You might see me doing a video in the lot.
You might see me doing a video some mattresses. You
might see me doing a video in a banded building.
(21:38):
Because I was trying to bring, you know, positivity to
a place where it's struggle at motherfuckers is trying to
figure out life. So to show you, listen, I'm trying
to figure it out too, but I'm gonna push you.
And you know, it was just a connection, and I
connected with the people that needed it the most. It
wasn't for everybody. I'm cool, it's eight billion people on
the planet. A couple hundred thousand fuck with it. Cool,
that's all you need. So I was just pushing you
(22:00):
knowing that and the people. One thing about human beings,
if you consistent on something, especially when it's positivity and
trying to encourage him, it's gonna be one day that
you're gonna crack through that you might help a motherfucker.
And I was just chasing one day for me the
people I could get, and that's how that took off.
And that's what I'm sharing in the book.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
I mean, I just think your your energy is different.
It's inspirational, it's refreshing.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
We live in a world of negativity, you know, insecurities, poverty,
tough times. People's energy is nasty towards one another, and
that's unfortunately the society we live in. But again, I
feel like you're a breath refresher and you've been able to.
Obviously you have a different outlook. You sat down for
a long time. I couldn't even from seventeen to thirty seven.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
I was crack. I couldn't imagine being gone that long.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
So obviously your outlook is different at it. But explain
how you've kind of turned that outlook and that mentality
into your buislding yourself Obviously together, you guys are doing
some shit, but you're building yourself an empire.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
You got several different.
Speaker 8 (22:58):
I believe in partnership, I don't. I'm a firm believer
in partnership and dealing with the machines. And one thing
about me and him, we got this this when it
comes to business, when it comes to just fuck business,
just life. I think we got the life part together first,
and the understanding and the communication. If I'm doing something off,
(23:18):
it's not Gil gonna call me yo, cuz come in,
let me holler at you. Listen, man, we can't And
I'm gonna say cuz I mean so. And that's the
greatest thing because it's never gonna be no Eve, we
never walked away from a situation where we had to
disagree on it, and it was resentment on ego. Most
people walk away their egos be they're pride and they
be like fuck you now, and they mind, they'd be like,
(23:39):
fuck you.
Speaker 7 (23:39):
I don't really fucking a resentment bill.
Speaker 8 (23:41):
So it's a bunch of clashing without our whole thing
is like, listen, we getting shitload of money for nothing
for being us.
Speaker 7 (23:47):
I'm gonna wake up tomorrow. Oh you understand this.
Speaker 8 (23:49):
Man, We're talking about fifty two fifty two hours a year,
million dollars worth a game. It's only fifty two fucking hours.
That's fifty two episodes. This is it's a lot of
paper involved for that. You see what I'm saying, Like,
and it's like we you got people reaching out the
partner with us because we're just doing what we're gonna
do anyway. Like you understand this, whether you saw it
(24:11):
or not. I was going to his crib, sleeping on
his couch just because it was a nice couch. I
was doing that anyway. Just sometimes he can't.
Speaker 12 (24:18):
Taking my wife mad as ship that night, sit on
my couches, you know, fresh out of jail downstairs, I
don't even know fucking on the couch because it's a
comfortable couch.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
So don't nobody sit on that fucking couch right there? Bro,
I don't know that. I don't know that. We'll get
the fuck up to come down here and then I
gotta fucking go through it. Why you got a couch
in your house?
Speaker 7 (24:39):
I don't understand.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Why wouldn't nobody sit on the fucking couch been in
your house? That's stupid.
Speaker 9 (24:43):
They're not olding multiple motherfucker's in that joint.
Speaker 1 (24:46):

If you know, everybody ain't know what the fuck I'm
talking about. He didn't matter because him and his homie
they just put one fu two beds together and ween.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
So what happened is who told you that? But listen,
at the end of the day. At the end of
the day, my thing is like, the couch needed to
be broken in any fucking way.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
It was comfortable.
Speaker 8 (25:13):
I didn't understand why I was so comfortable. He wanted
what you like, I'm like, you mean, it's a couch.
I opposed laying on. This is what niggas doing the hood.
They make couches. A couch is a bed in the ghetto?

and push the line.

no market in here, so we don't know what each
other is getting.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
We don't know what to push for.
Speaker 8 (35:23):
Yeah, and the and they'll play you because we we
live in We the new media, Like we took media over.
And it's not that it's not that it's not the
standardship the more like everybody that got a phone can
build a media company. But I just think people don't
understand like you need a team. I think everybody want
to do about the selfish ship and it's like, no,
once you get an infrastructure, these people only respect infrastructures
(35:47):
and businesses that's moving.

know about that? Gil Nig Yeah, this regularly for four
months and then he was gone.
Speaker 4 (47:57):
Uh speaking of which, but Stack I was in and
Splint wichmand I just one for everybody since retiring from
the NBA and even Gilly with music and going into
a different lane. What's the impact that you see outside
of the NBA now on people because you led one
of the biggest marches, I would say in the world
(48:19):
and I was there side by side, which is born
in you know what I mean? And what's the impact
that you see now that you get back to the
game after the NBA.
Speaker 11 (48:28):
Well, I just think everybody understands that their voice is
just as big as mine. You might have a platform
I have, You might have a platform bigger than anybody else,
but your voice still matter, And I think everybody know
that it's not one person that could get it done.
Speaker 1 (48:42):
It's not two people.
Speaker 11 (48:43):
But if some kind of way we all can come
together and get on the same page, that's the only
way we get shited done. So if we can sinue
to have the attitude, we'll be all right. But everybody
voice matter. I appreciate you, bro.
Speaker 2 (48:53):
I think, like Waller said earlier, like we've changed what
media is. You guys get your news from different so
horses now from different sources than our parents got it from.
So you know, we take a lot of pride in
having these platforms and be trusted voices, voices you guys
come to for information, So we don't take that ship
for granted.
Speaker 1 (49:11):
So yeah, we definitely appreciate that. Oh damn, he won
money and a book. Huh, hell of a day, bro,
what's your question? All right?
Speaker 2 (49:19):
So I'm cairis right, and like this is my first podcast,
live podcast, So like it's a pretty good you enjoy
yourself today, made a little money, got a bug, got
to see these guys, And.
Speaker 1 (49:30):
Really the reason why I'm here really because of this
program here. So what's called it's called Unique Dreams. Unique
Dreams shut out. You need unique dreams. Yeah, and my
question is who's the youngest. Who's the baby here? Who's
the youngest? I think I might be the youngest. I
was forty four. How do you forty five? He fifty three?
(49:52):
Fuck out forty eight? Okay, yeah, so we all. Yeah,
I'm young, boys, you niggas will give me some back
woods my fucking lemonade. Yeah, keep the change. Appreciate it man,
Thank you.
Speaker 2 (50:08):
Next up, I think there's a line behind you, boss,
but guas go ahead real quick.
Speaker 1 (50:14):
Come on. My name Danzel. I'm from the d m
V area and everything like that.
Speaker 5 (50:19):
So you guys all the Smoke podcast inspired me to
be in the cultivation area in the cannabis industry and
everything like that, watching out our Inheritance podcast. So I
got a question for you guys with some advice you
could give to me for being in the starting in
the cannabis industry and what can like you know, what
things and skills I might need to learn and everything
(50:40):
like that.
Speaker 1 (50:41):
Keep it down back there, want you to give from
you guys. But they made me throw it out. You
know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
Oh, we appreciate the thought, Gilly, I mean this is
something you've jumped into the the medical space. You're in
dispensaries now. But what kind of advice would you give
for somebody young in the space?
Speaker 1 (50:56):
Well, what what what part of the space you're getting in?
You a grower?
Speaker 2 (50:59):
What like?
Speaker 1 (50:59):
You know what I mean? What you do?
Speaker 5 (51:01):
So right now I just started growing. I got about
five plants in my facinity right now. So I'm just learning,
trying to learn like my state regulations and the business
side and the financial side and everything like that.
Speaker 1 (51:12):
I mean, the most important part of everything is the product.
You know what I mean?
Speaker 9 (51:19):
Most people smoke dicky because most people don't know what
good weed is. Feel what I'm saying. Most people go
to their man, who got it in?
Speaker 4 (51:28):
Your man?
Speaker 1 (51:28):
Don't know weed? Got that shit from man, He got
that shit from six other niggas. They got that shit
from a Mexican man.
Speaker 9 (51:34):
You're smoking Mexican brown man, Charles Barkley man fucking dirt,
no winskill.
Speaker 1 (51:44):
So yeah, that's another form of it, Retgie Miller.
Speaker 9 (51:48):
So the product has always got to be we hear,
because they got a dope product.
Speaker 1 (51:55):
We have a dope product. That's first and foremost.
Speaker 9 (51:58):
You feel what I'm saying, if you growing doe at
your facility, you wasted fucking time.
Speaker 1 (52:02):
Man.
Speaker 9 (52:02):
Nobody want that shit now, So you got to figure
out if it's some good shit first, and then you
could take the next steps from there. I was able
to see most people that say they got a string,
they really don't got a string. They got a bag
that they put their fucking face on and they threw
somebody else's third ass.
Speaker 1 (52:18):
Weed in there.
Speaker 9 (52:19):
They don't know what the fuck is it. That way,
my shit is through the government, so I can't do that.
I had to take two strands and put them together
and make a baby. That's why you got Gilly Wonka
per thirty and mule Kick. You ever seen a motherfucker
get kicked in the face by a horse? That's how
(52:43):

if I had to pick one person, who's my favorite teammate?
My motherfucking brought outside of us, outside of each other.
Speaker 2 (55:54):
Okay, I have to go with Al Harrington. Al Harrison
is my dog. Al Harrington. I would say my favorite
teammate was who I used to really get in some trouble.
I used to have Me and Kobe used to get
into some ship rested piece years.
Speaker 1 (56:08):
I said, yeah, I was saying that. I would say, Cove, Yeah, Now,
what was you thinking when you I was trying to
fuck him up. I wanted to fight him. He was
just doing some dirty shit.
Speaker 2 (56:19):
He elbowed me like three times that game hit me
and my stern and I'm knocked the wind out of me.
Speaker 1 (56:23):
I kind of respected. It was respect, but it was
also almost to fight. You got it. I appreciate your broth.
Thank you, lo bro. You want you want some money too? Huh?
You walking there?
Speaker 2 (56:34):
But I can tell the way you stepped to the
microphone that boy pot get heavy.
Speaker 1 (56:40):
Money. Rock. I played basketball. I'm saying, cook, no side,
no sign.
Speaker 2 (56:45):
How you said you're sixteen. Yeah, he's battling kids too.
He wants to play my twins, my twins only fifteen.
Speaker 11 (56:53):
I got a question like for basketball, what I'm saying, oh,
like the obstacles, like because you know it's gonna be
ups and downs and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (57:03):
So like, how is it like when you were growing
up playing basketball? Like your journey? You know, I was
playing for Sunny Hill. What happened was I fucked my
acl up right.
Speaker 7 (57:14):
Now right so you got understand this?
Speaker 1 (57:16):
And he said it fucked his acnle.
Speaker 8 (57:18):
Tom I was playing for. I was playing for Sunny Hill.
I had Seaton Hall Temple, Penn State in uh North Carolina.
Speaker 1 (57:27):
Trying to get right.
Speaker 7 (57:29):
Yeah you heard about me right, see what I ain't
gonna tell you?
Speaker 2 (57:33):
So I would say obviously these days, I got kids
out your age, and I think there's a lot of
distractions out there. So I would say the most important
thing is, you know, stay true to yourself, stay true
to your school worker.
Speaker 1 (57:43):
But then you got to work.
Speaker 2 (57:45):
Everybody in the world wants to be on that level,
and it's been less than as long as the NBA
has been around, there's been less than five thousand people
in that game. So you got to be the best
of the best. So you gotta work hard. You gotta
work hard, you gotta stay focused. I say the most
important thing is the mental self because once you get there,
everybody is skilled, and how do you stay focused and
able to continue to grow your game and continue to
(58:06):
hold that spot, because as soon as you get there,
everyone's coming for you. Everyone's coming for you on and
off the court.
Speaker 11 (58:13):
And I'm say I want to touch on that, and
then too, you gotta believe in yourself. Like you, I'm
somebody who made a lot of mistakes, right, I made
a lot of mistakes, But you got to believe in
yourself and control your own narrative. Right, You're gonna make
mistakes and a lot of things not gonna be easy,
but don't learn from people ahead of you. Don't put
yourself in the position where you've seen other people mess up.
(58:34):
Learn from other people mistakes. Right, There's no reason for
you to make mistakes of trying to be an athlete
when there's so many other athletes that messed up their careers. Right,
So look at the people that did it wrong and
try not to make the same mistakes they made.
Speaker 1 (58:46):
That's the easy way to look at it. I love that,
Thank you, appreciate it. So what do you guys start
