Hello and welcome to another episode of the Blackout Tills Podcast.
I'm your host Rod, joined as always by my co
host Karen. We went to elementary school together, we did,
and we lived in the same neighborhood right up the street.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
I tell people when people ask us for relationship advice,
I tell them we are ab normal, like like super abnormal.
Went to the same elementary, same middle school, same high school,
same college.
Speaker 5 (00:32):
We are weird, y'all.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Most of y'all met y'all partners kind of later on
in life.
Speaker 5 (00:37):
Some of you.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
You know what I'm saying, uh, but yeah, me, But
we didn't start dating to be like sixteen. I've known
Roger basically my whole life.
Speaker 6 (00:44):
I don't know. That's why I say I don't know
about y'all life me either.
Speaker 5 (00:48):
I do not know how to handle all of that boodish.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Just because I sound reasonable doesn't mean I have any
experience with the real world.
Speaker 7 (00:54):
Guys.
Speaker 6 (00:55):
But we're not here along, guys.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
We have a guest.
Speaker 6 (00:57):
We do, okay.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
Today's guest is comedian, writer, producer, host of Drunk Black History,
Medium Popcorn and now what the film with Brandon Collins.
Speaker 6 (01:11):
What's going on?
Speaker 2 (01:12):
Brandon Collins, Graham Rising, m Keenan McQueen. It's great to
see yalls.
Speaker 6 (01:17):
Always donations, donations.
Speaker 8 (01:20):
I didn't not know that y'all knew each other since
elementary school, like I said in the chat, Like, that's
like my grandparents' story, Like they knew each other since
they were kids. They lived in the same neighborhood, they
lived like two blocks away from each other, and they
didn't start dating ntil like high schools. Yeah, but man,
that's incredible beautiful.
Speaker 6 (01:36):
Ignorance is bliss, is what I say.
Speaker 5 (01:38):
Yes, it is better right right, neither one of them,
neither one of us.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
People be like, you know, why are you such a
feminist and all this stuff.
Speaker 6 (01:47):
I'm like, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
I never had to deal with anything bad, Like I
don't know what bitter shit y'all are holding in, Like
no one I don't have the story of, Like and
then I came.
Speaker 6 (01:57):
Home she was fucking the whole football.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
Team, and I don't have to deal with any of that.
Speaker 8 (02:01):
Well, I mean, I think it's also indicative of being
surrounded by great women too, right right, Like for me,
like I was raised by Like I was surrounded by
women all the time for my grandfather Thory Stoic, and
didn't talk to anybody except this bottle of segums.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
But what's crazy is I feel like a lot of
men are surrounded by great women, but then they somehow
managed to be you know, these in cel ass type niggas,
And I feel like it's you know, they use a
lot of that by blaming like women they dated or
women that they din't.
Speaker 6 (02:34):
Women exact women they can't get with, and.
Speaker 8 (02:39):
Like Instagram is full of a lot of women that
are just like so so far out of your league,
and just like resentment because you're like commenting, like you know,
these intels are commenting in the chat, They're not talking
to me, like some women have been posting recently, like
the creepy dms they begetting, And I'm like, how.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Do you have the balls to even reach out to
some of the crazy ye see?
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Like, And the thing is a lot of times men
they realize it, but some of them don't care. It
is a privilege to being a man, and so a
lot of times men feel like and men have been
kind of raised I'm talking about streight. Men have been
kind of raised. Go out there, get what you want.
Be bold, be brave, you know you know what I mean,
(03:20):
type of thing. Don't let them see you cry, don't
let them see your crack type of thing. And when
you do that, a lot of people kind of internalize
that seriously, think they could just take over the world.
I want it, so it's mine and how dare you
tell me no?
Speaker 2 (03:35):
No?
Speaker 3 (03:35):
Type of My favorite thing these days is actually when
a dude says something out of pocket about a woman's appearance,
and then the woman, without any real commentary, just post
that guy's avatar, like just just blown up the normal
size picture, and then the world does the rest, Like
(03:57):
the world just comes in the ring like it's WrestleMania,
like elbow dropping on this man, Like you look like
a sack of potatoes.
Speaker 6 (04:03):
You got you dare talk about it? I love that.
Speaker 8 (04:05):
Yeah, you just walking back through middle school trauvel, motherfucker was, Yes,
we got games over here.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
You could have just walked on by, but you decided
to throw your coming in there while your.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Hairline looked like a batman symbol. It's like, God damn,
he could have just shut the fuck up.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
And like it's always weird to me because like I
feel like being of a certain age, I grew up
at a time where like seeing some booze or butt
or something was a big deal for me.
Speaker 6 (04:33):
It was it was huge, yes, Like I.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Won't get you to see a titty.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Right, and motherfuckers used to like playing their life around
stuff like I might get to see some titties tonight.
I'm throwing all my plans out the window. My boys, I'm.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Not I'm not sixteen years old. Okay, I'm not judging.
Speaker 6 (04:53):
I'm saying we were. We were in it together.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
If anything, I'm saying we are, We're collective. We're missing
something because these niggas don't have no appreciation for the
fact that I can just log onto Twitter and there's
twenty women willingly being like, can you please look at
my titties and make a comment please? I just guys,
I need some help. My my follower account is getting
kind of low. Can someone share my titties? So they
(05:16):
go virals like you guys are so spoiled and this
is these are the ones that this is a generation
and like I hate these women.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
I'm like, what this is all I dreamed of?
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Like I feel that actually all the time.
Speaker 8 (05:30):
I'm like when I'm on instagrammar tik tak like yeah,
Like I'm like, I should figure out my algorithm.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
But I'm also like, how are you?
Speaker 8 (05:36):
How are you so angry with There's so many beautiful
people in the world, Like, you know, I walk around
New York and stuff and that, I'm like, this's a
beautiful world, like city, like the things.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
If you ever have m if you ever shoplifted an
adult magazine, then you you should not be there's you
literally are living in utopia right now.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
This is people are risk prison time to look at
some titties.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
I can pull a porn on my phone now.
Speaker 8 (06:02):
I used to have to sneak into my mom's room
because I knew she had some portal tapes under the
mattress next to her other you know, pleasure objects which
I won't talk about make me uncomfortable to talk, but
like I'd like sneak into the living room, put it
on the VHS, make sure I sinked everything up so
I knew where to like rewind it to right.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
You know, it took a lot.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
I used to go in a convenience store and pretend
to be looking at like time magazine, so I could
get a glance at the cover of Black Tail, Like
I was.
Speaker 6 (06:29):
Just like, oh, this is interesting.
Speaker 3 (06:30):
You know, as twelve year olds, we really need to
know about the economy and uh.
Speaker 6 (06:34):
Oh Janet Jackman, Okay, good, what else?
Speaker 8 (06:38):
One of my favorite lines like, obviously it's a teen
male comedy, but super bad when they're looking at the
porn because like my friends and I literally said this
about dipples one time. But he's looking at the dipples
like that little baby toe. That's why I was like,
I fuck with Seth Rogan because I'm like, that's the
kind of sense of humor I had, like as a teenager.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Yeah, man, but yeah, it is interesting that this is
the generation that is chosen to be the most and
I it's probably got a lot more to do with isolation, yes,
because not that men have ever been great, but I
feel like the isolation via the Internet and not seeing
people in real life and people not hanging out in
(07:15):
third spaces like you know, like the mall and shit,
you know, clubs, you know, even just parents dropping you
off at the movies. And it wasn't necessarily everything was
all good, but having to deal with people in person,
there's a level of like, you know, respect you have
to have because no one's gonna let you see their
(07:36):
boobs if you're talking shitty to them to their face,
you know, you gotta you gotta at least like learn
how to talk to somebody to be like, maybe they'll
show me a boob one day. But on the Internet,
I think these guys are just like, I'm never gonna
see this lady anyway. She lives a million miles away,
she's dating Anthony Edwards, and I have no shots, So
(07:57):
I'm just gonna go on her page and be like,
bitch you it didn't let her post me, and everybody
call me a sack of potatoes.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
It's the same.
Speaker 8 (08:05):
I was sitting next to his brother for a Highest
to Lowist premiere on Monday and Easteride Rocky was in
the building, right, and this dude was like, Yo, if
I could, if I could just have a moment with Brianna, man,
I swear to God for you.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
I was like, Okay, sure, but is shot.
Speaker 6 (08:24):
Yeah, imagine if Rihanna.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
We just saw Rihanna pop up with some random dude
from New York who was like a movie critic or something,
and we're like, what what how did she get with
that guy?
Speaker 6 (08:34):
He just got a minute alone with her?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Dude, He was right, he got backstage, he said, he
spit some game tour. She threw a whole life away,
man asp raising them babies by herself. She's she's got
a red carpet with this guy. Wow, what a what
a what a story.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Man?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Speaking of it, dude, speaking of movies, this new project?
What the film? What? What is it? Exactly?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (08:58):
Yeah, what's going on? And naming it that? Are you
naming it that?
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Because Mark Marin is ending his podcast, so now you
can take the space right.
Speaker 8 (09:06):
It's a little bit convenient time and everything. Look, I
went through a lot of different names I had for
this show. Uh, and Tati my my wife at kind
of helped me narrow it down to.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
To WTF with the film because it.
Speaker 8 (09:18):
Is gonna be like a love letter to film, but
also at the same time, I'm gonna be highlight a
lot of the insane things that were made because I
think that, you know, with this whole like leading on
the industry, leading so hard on IP and things like that,
it's like important for us to remember, like there's some
big swings that happened with original films and we should
appreciate that, yet they don't always hit, so they don't
hold up or like their batshit crazy.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
That requirement before you appreciate.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
That it happened.
Speaker 8 (09:43):
Like like I'm so happy with like the past week
or so with films like a bench you host to lowest.
We just saw weapons like the fact that like some
of these original films are coming out and like they're
taking some huge swings that they don't always hit, but
they're still Like I just appreciate that these these.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Movies are being made.
Speaker 8 (09:59):
Ya's just like you know, honey, the Kids per three
or whatever reboots through cooking up.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Now you know what I mean, or like a War
of the World's my god.
Speaker 8 (10:08):
Yeah, please media popcorn fans, please stop asking us to
review that.
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Like we're gonna get to it.
Speaker 8 (10:12):
But like the clips, I'm just seeing a lone of
like yo, Ice yoube just like record himself on a
computer and just say, hey, we can make a movie
out of this, right.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
I watched it and then I found out the backstory
was it was actually recorded during the pandemic when we
weren't allowed to like really go out, and for some
reason it was not released until twenty twenty five, which
I don't understand because I feel like you might could
have got away with this in twenty Like it would
have been bad, like don't get me wrong, but there
(10:43):
would have been a level of understanding.
Speaker 6 (10:45):
It would have been like appreciation, like.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
We appreciate Amazon trying to give us entertainment when we're
all stuck together, you know, like at least it's something,
and we would have laughed at it and been like
it's silly, but we would have there's more extinguating circumstances
where we're like, yeah, but I mean, you can't film
a movie right now, you can't be together. Putting it
on the twenty twenty five feels like they were trying
(11:07):
to fuck ice cube life up, like like he had
to be like chilling and then wake up one day
and be like they put that out, like oh.
Speaker 8 (11:15):
Yeah, the reason why he's doing some rounds where he's like, hey,
I didn't know this is the trump we're gonna get.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Right, yeah, him to do this fust he not prepared.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
Because I remember some of these celebrity interviews where you
can tell like if someone's been coached, they're prepped.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Everything, It's like you know they're set to fail, Like, uh,
what was it?
Speaker 8 (11:32):
Lay Davis on the wire when they bring all the
receipts in the court and he's like, oh, y'all.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Off of blood But I did I didn't.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
I didn't even decide track you though, man, So yeah,
wasn't the film. I'm sorry you're talking about these original movies.
Speaker 8 (11:51):
It's a love letter of the film. And it's like
me leading into like entertainment versus like, you know, just
straight up stand up comedy or whatever you like, given
drunk like history. Now I want to kind of like
transition some stuff, like you know, like my my approach
to comedy towards like my love of film. And obviously
I have medium popcorn. But this gives me an opportunity
to talk to a lot of different creatives and people
about favorite films to influence them.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Uh and also just like.
Speaker 8 (12:13):
Celebrate movie like movies like I'm gonna do trivia, i'mnna
do like movie karaoke.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
We have a lot of giveaways. I go to a
lot of screening, so I have a lot of things
fun right.
Speaker 5 (12:22):
Things, a lot of neat stuff.
Speaker 8 (12:24):
So yeah, so what the film is a monthly series
that We're starting in Brooklyn, Little Field starting on Thursday,
September fourth. The first lineup is is great, Like I
got Tatiana King, DJ ben Haamen from the Poor All
Nerse podcast, the Hobie Justin Brown from Median Popcorn on it,
a fear of Eisenberg from NPR, and the homie Mike Foene,
who I actually used to do a storytelling show with
back in the Story of Queen's. So it's it's a
(12:45):
it's a nice like, you know, bring a lot of
my favorite people on stage to talk about their favorite
films and we're talking specifically about the nineties for the
first so we'll get a lot of a lot of
the same movies.
Speaker 6 (12:56):
A couple of things.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Is it going to be a little podcast form? Is
it only in person?
Speaker 6 (13:02):
Is it gonna be it's.
Speaker 8 (13:04):
Only in person right now, But I will be recording.
I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with like I'll
probably like chop with the footage like post online. But
I don't know if I'm gonna do any type of
podcasting for right now. But it's just it's gonna be
a live experience and it just come out.
Speaker 6 (13:17):
Yeah, make sure, Yeah, if you're in New York.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
Make sure you show up because Brandon puts on a
hell of a show. It's always well produced, it's always fun.
He always has the best guess.
Speaker 6 (13:29):
You know, good good good venues, like.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
It's it's always it's always a top class situation. So
anytime we have Brandon on here and brand is promoting
something like a live in person thing, if you can
be there in person, I highly suggest you be there
in person, even if it is something where eventually it
might be virtual.
Speaker 6 (13:48):
Or whatever it feels. I've been there in person.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
I've been there virtual, top class both ways, but the
in person is just it's a different hit, different being
allowed people that are also into the same thing you're into.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
So make sure you guys go check them out.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
And also something I realized about Brandon Brandan is a professional, y'all.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
Like, and sometimes people.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
Don't understand the work that goes behind picking the venue,
then being sure the venue is somewhere people have access to,
being sure you know the venue has all the compliances
or whatever you know things are needed, making sure insurance
and all that stuff.
Speaker 5 (14:26):
It's a lot behind it. Well.
Speaker 3 (14:29):
Also the professional meaning like branding starts on time. Yes,
like if Brandon says something's gonna be there, someone's gonna
something's gonna happen, it happens. And I don't mean that
as shade to anybody else, but it's just something in
this industry you can't take for granted. And I think
a lot of people kind of take, especially with talent.
(14:51):
It's like, oh, my talent is so immense that you know,
if I'm the show star, when I get there or
whatever the fuck. And branding is not like Brandon's like,
I'm I'm gonna be there. It's gonna happen, it's gonna
be on time, it's gonna whatever your ticket says, that's
gonna happen. And so that's another reason I always feel
like highly confident to recommend anything you do, because I know,
(15:13):
even when we just schedule the show, I never go, well,
Brandon might be there ten fifteen, ten thirty, like.
Speaker 6 (15:18):
Brand it's gonna be there early nine am and ready
to go.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I appreciate that.
Speaker 8 (15:24):
Yeah, it's a lot of hard work, and coordinating, especially
with comedians is a nightmare.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Because like you said, Rod, they always think like, oh, the.
Speaker 8 (15:31):
Show, like you know, I'll be fine, Like I'll get
there when I get there and they'll like it'll work out.
And I'm very specific with how I outline like the
show and the flow of it. So like, if I'm
putting you first, that's for a reason. I still think
you're talented, Like there's no right, that's the reason why
put you. I think you're gonna be great on the show.
But I'm sending you up for success in this one spot.
If you go later than that, or you go like
you know, if we have to change things up, you
(15:53):
might be in for a weird it might be a
little bit more.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Challenging for us.
Speaker 8 (15:57):
Like we had an experience like that recently. We did
a dunk by history at the Museum of Food and
Drink and things went well, but I told like one
of the talent to get there early so they could
get relaxed, they can get comfortable, and they got there
like literally thirty seconds before I called them on stage,
and so of course they're not in the right, they're not.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
It took them a while to ramp up and get.
Speaker 8 (16:17):
By that point the time for me to move on
to my next guest. So it's like I always want
people to win, and that's been one of the toughest
things about being in this industry is like, you know,
there's like a little bit of an innocence and nativity
that comes with that and that people try to.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Take advantage of.
Speaker 8 (16:30):
But I mean, at the same time, I always book
people because I want them to succeed.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I want the audience to have a great time.
Speaker 8 (16:37):
I know they're gonna have a good experience, and so yeah,
this first show line, I'm like, who I love to
talk to about movies and pop culture and like who
I know are just funny people, and like that's why
booked them for this.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
First show, and I'm really excited for you. Something Roger
talked about, which I do believe sometimes people that are
creatives forget the damn reality. I understand you a creative
and creative is great, but things around you function kind
of differently. And sometimes they'd be like, well, I don't
have to be on time, Like yeah, yeah you do, yeah, yeah,
(17:08):
you know.
Speaker 6 (17:09):
We have just for reasons. I'll just say it helps.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
You know.
Speaker 3 (17:12):
There's people that you know, our friends of the show
and stuff, but I hesitate to book them on stuff
because they've no showed or they've been so late that
it fucks us up, and I'm not an angry person.
I'm a pretty patient person. But I also know that
this is a product and our audience expects a certain things.
Speaker 6 (17:30):
So it doesn't matter how funny or talented you are.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
If I'm telling people you're gonna be here at ten
and then we consistently can't start till ten thirty eleven,
or hey, sorry, they're not gonna show up, there's a
level of that where I, in order to avoid conflict later,
I'm just like, I'm not gonna view this as disrespect,
even though it is disrespect to my time and my audience.
(17:54):
I'm just gonna say this person doesn't come on the
show often and move on.
Speaker 6 (17:59):
Like it's just zier for that way.
Speaker 3 (18:01):
And it's you know, I think it's weird because there's
people who've been creative their whole lives, and so there's
also people that have had jobs. I've had jobs my
whole life and then been a creative. So the job
shit is, you know, while I know people ship on
jobs or whatever, the fuck, you know, I get it,
we're all anti capitalists now, but there's certain shit in
(18:22):
jobs that you learn that it's so fucking key. You
can tell people who've never really been in jobs like that,
because it's like being on time is key, being professional
is key, a good attitude is key, and a good
attitude is not necessarily mean like you gotta be fake
or anything, but I mean a good Adit Like people
look at good attitude like it's like a personality trade,
(18:44):
and I'm like, no.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
Good attitude is literally like what they pay you for.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
I don't think, yeah, you think i'd be feeling great
when I show up to McDonald's. No, But when i
hop on them motherfucking intercom and I'm like, Hi.
Speaker 6 (18:58):
Welcome to McDonald's. Can I take your order? That's what
the fucking seven twenty five is for a player.
Speaker 8 (19:02):
You know, when I when I'm at a store and
customer service is so bad, I'm like, I used to
do your job, Like like, yeah, you may not like it,
but like you gotta have a smiler your face. You
have to want to interact with somebody. You can't just
stand up on your phone. But to that point, though,
like that's one of the reasons why I'm so and
I've gotten better with like relaxing when it comes to
time management because my wife, you know, she tends to
run five minutes late for everything. But it's like I
(19:26):
grew up, Like when I was six years old my grandparents,
I used to stay with my grandparents, and my grandfather
were worth at General Motors in Detroit, right, but he
they lived in Ipsilanti, so they were like thirty five
minutes outside of Detroit, and so I would have to
wake up because he had a five am shift. I
woke up my grandparents at three thirty in the morning
to drive with my grandparents to drop off my grandfather
at General Motors so he could be early, not even
(19:48):
on time early. He was always fifteen minutes or more
early right for his ship. And then I would drive
back with my grandmother. Like I just learned that discipline
of being on like being early, not even on time,
because you never know what could happen. You always have
to be a comfort, an error, other things that could happen,
Like you don't want to have the excuse to get
it work late and you're like, oh, well this happened, right,
I caught on traffic's like traffic appams every day, bro, yes, I.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
And like I and I understand that I'm a stickler
for it, and so I try not to be too
abrasive to other people about it, but.
Speaker 6 (20:17):
Like I fucking mean it.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
Like when we say we got to show at a
certain time, I be here in this room at the
time that it's supposed to start, you know, like not
I'm getting ready. Let me turn on the computer at
ten Like no that because sometimes a computer got to
do a fucking update, right, you got to start over
and now, and now we're ten minutes late because we
didn't do the shit we were supposed to do. You know,
(20:40):
even when we have like a guest who's like, I'll
start to show on time, let the audience know, like
they running a little late. You know, we got you,
cause it's just, you know, as a customer, one of
the things people don't understand. As a customer views you
the same way they view anything they pay for. So
you could like, you hope they're nice and they like,
oh independent people is you know, this.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
Isn't the same.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
But at the same time, if I'm giving you ten
dollars and I'm giving Netflix ten dollars, Netflix tells me
the show premieres at midnight on Friday, I expect to
hit play and the motherfucking shows there.
Speaker 6 (21:14):
You tell me the show starts at midnight on Friday.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
I expect to hit play. I don't go, well, that's different.
That's Rod and Karen No, I go, damn, that's weird.
The shit wasn't there at midnight like they promised. So
I think, you know that stuff matters because it's not
just about charisma and stuff is about delivering what people expect.
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Yeah, it really is.
Speaker 4 (21:33):
And me and Roger talk about you, Brandon, and sometimes
I'd be like, and you know what, I actually want
to work with you one day.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
When or what may happen, but I was like I
was thinking. I was like, I actually want to work
with you.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
When you will, yeah, yeah, we will.
Speaker 8 (21:47):
Like I've definitely like had some ideas percolated with like
some type of festival or something like that in New York.
I've been you know, because I've had big use reaching
out to me because of the success and drump Black
History and somebody like, oh, would you be interested in
doing something link here or there? And I'm like, there's
something that I could put together. I'm just trying to
figure out, you know, because I'm setting up this tour
and everything like that. But I'm in talks between two agents.
(22:07):
So hopefully that will help with like getting like you know,
support with this tour, right, the Drunk Like History tour,
and then also what the film and stuff like that.
But yeah, we're definitely gonna work.
Speaker 3 (22:15):
Out how's how is what the film be different from
say medium popcorn and drop black history like in your
mind like in your minds.
Speaker 8 (22:25):
It's kind of a combination of both in a way.
It's like, you know, fun movie commentary and observations and
like celebration of like movies that shaped our whether it's
a comedy sensibility or are our feelings about, like, you know,
a certain time period, especially because the nineties were kind
of unhinged, like there was like a no holds barred
and right, and how that reflects on today's society and
like the young people that grew up to that stuff. Yes,
(22:47):
and so but then it's al's gonna be like movie
trivia and like things about the production like how much
the movie change, and so like I'm bringing those elements
of drunk like history like unknown facts and fun trivia
and audience engagement stuff like that. So it's a good
combination of both things. So it's less of a heavy
left for me as like a producer and things like that,
and just more something that I'm passionate about. That's why
I'm excited about this series. I think it's gonna be
(23:08):
some different because I didn't just do ANIR stand up show.
Like I got some offers from some things like hey,
like you know, I know you did drump like history,
like I remember you did comedy Alliars, would you love
to do a standard show here? And I'm like, that's already.
I can't offer anything new now, right right, Like, I
can't offer anything new in that space. But what I
can offer is like this other thing that I'm incredibly
passionate about that I think could have some legs.
Speaker 3 (23:29):
And everybody everybody loves movies, so it's like a great
like tentpole thing to bring like comedians, actors and fans together.
I also like the idea of revisiting older stuff or
you know, just wacky stuff for people's personal favorites and
stuff like that, because I feel like everyone has those
things and they're not necessarily shared experiences in that everyone
(23:53):
likes them, but they're shared experiences in that everyone has
one right like like, for example, I love Pootie Tang unrightly.
Speaker 6 (24:00):
It's a ridiculous movie.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
We've seen it in the movie theater and had a motherfucking.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
We were in the theater and we were like the
only people laughing at everything.
Speaker 5 (24:09):
It was me and Roderick.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
You have the premiere with a.
Speaker 6 (24:14):
We were the only ones.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
The only ones, and I mean we were laughing like
a full comedy show.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
That ship was.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
But like my point isn't that like if we if
we were on to talk about Pooty Tang or something,
that everybody would be like, yeah, we all love Pooty Tang.
It's actually kind of dope that people are like, that's
not the one I love, but we all have one.
If someone else would be like, oh, mine was tripping
or mine was in it, it's like that that shared
experience is beautiful. And revisiting older stuff, I think there's
(24:42):
a value to it because there's there's like this thing
that's existing right now where people revisit stuff but only
the problematic part of it, right And I think revisiting
it in a total is better. Like and I'm not
saying it has to be you don't talk about anything problematic.
Speaker 6 (25:00):
I mean like.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
Revisiting to be like this is what was fun about it.
This is what hasn't aged as well, And this is
what was a different conversation. We had different words for
and I think there's something fun and universal about that
conversation as opposed to like say last week when Ariy
Lennox said there was colorism involved in the Pam portrayal
on Martin, instead of just everyone yelling at her or
(25:23):
yelling at the people who were like it would be
cool to be like, oh no, like here's some of
the favorite parts of Martin. Yeah, I can see how
this aged badly.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Yeah, one hundred percent.
Speaker 8 (25:33):
I mean, especially with the nineties, Like for me, like
one of the most one of the movies that people
could say is incredibly problematic. Now it's Heavyweights, right because
the whole.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Fat camp the thing and stuff like that.
Speaker 8 (25:43):
But like that Low Keys one of the funniest comedic
performances ever with Ben.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
Steeler as Tony Perkins.
Speaker 8 (25:48):
Like, I don't know who can watch that movie ad
I think that he's so crazy that you just can't
laugh at some point. And there's some other movies, like
you know, the Zelba wasn't some wild nineties movies. I mean,
obviously Philadelphia is great, but like he I think he
probably represented like a lot of the black community at
the time of how they felt about AIDS and stuff.
But then he also did, uh that crazy way with
(26:09):
John Goodman and the Devil.
Speaker 6 (26:10):
Oh man, that's the time is on my side, falling at.
Speaker 8 (26:15):
The books where he was a parablelegic and then like
they said they positive that dead Zee was so sexy,
is like this is the one from Cold Get.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
He could get it. What's what's crazy about? What's crazy
about that? I don't know if you recently saw that
that quote he because he's doing you know, his movie
his Rounds the promotion Highest Love, but where he was
like he didn't take the role in seven because he
thought the script was too demonic, and then he saw
seven and was like I fucked up and and then
(26:49):
and then uh so then he does Falling in the
Bone Collector, right, and so on Twitter, I was like,
I quote tweeted his you know, his thing about how
you know he was like, man, I didn't want to
do it because it's too demonic, and I quote to it.
There were like, man, black people really don't play about
the devil, which is universal like black people, I don't
know what it is we do not play about the devil.
(27:11):
And then people's like, well he was in Falling. I
was like, if you read the fucking quote, uh, seven
came out two years before Falling.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Me.
Speaker 6 (27:20):
He he got He walked.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Out of seven the same way that like Cam Newton
in that one gift where the team scores a touchdown
and then and then you see him on the sideline
like get ready to put his heaven on in the state.
He's like nod in his head like okay, then, yeah,
let me go out here and get my touchdown.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
I'm like, that's how he walked out.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
He looked at Brad Pitton was like, okay, then, so
we're doing devil movies.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
I'll be right back with and Falling.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Falling is one of the creepiest movies to this day,
So he did that.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
It's very creepy. Yeah.
Speaker 8 (27:50):
I love when afters like talk about the movies that
they like, they you know, they rejected and damn Like
Leonardolde recently talked about how he didn't you book that's
like his biggest regret.
Speaker 3 (28:04):
Yeah, dirt Diggler And that was after a basketball diary,
so like.
Speaker 8 (28:08):
He would have been perfect for g Yeah, Edgy, but
he might have lost Titanic could be done that right.
Speaker 3 (28:14):
That's true too, And Will Smith definitely has the biggest
ones I think of all times.
Speaker 6 (28:20):
It's not just it's the Matrix and Django.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Yeah, like he missed out on a few like iconic
movies where and part of the appial, you know, to
be fair to Will because I feel like the same
thing with Denzel. Part of the appial is getting him
to do those movies. Like it's not just a it's
not just a matter of like all those movies are
good movies and he could have been in it.
Speaker 6 (28:41):
I mean, like there is something to a guy who
plays a.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Good guy his whole life, and then Denzel doing Training
Day that just like where if you if Training Day
stars uh Wesley Snipes, it's not it doesn't hit the same.
It doesn't hit the same. You spend the whole movie
being like this dirty ass cop he gonna fucking but
watching it with Denzel, you like, Dinzel doesn't play bad guys.
(29:04):
So I don't know what the angle is where he's
like tripled up a undercover or part of internal affairs,
but he's gonna do something at the end of this
movie to like exonerate himself and you just in the movie.
Speaker 6 (29:15):
Like god damn, Denzel was a dirty wor.
Speaker 5 (29:20):
Right like everything.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
Little Aprolito Son was like, yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
You got nothing on me right now.
Speaker 8 (29:30):
My jam set up either Hall with some Mexican controllers
to get.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
You.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
Ever had your ship pushed in?
Speaker 3 (29:38):
I was like, yeah, bro, this is different type of
movie Denzel took.
Speaker 8 (29:42):
I remember watching that, like uh in middle school. I
think that is when it came out, and I remember
looking over and my mom like what.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
Does that mean? I ain't gonna explain it. Yeah, I'm
from the Stubbers. I'm like a ship push dude.
Speaker 6 (29:57):
Dog.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
That was very literal.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
I was like, oh my, it's gracious.
Speaker 8 (30:03):
But yeah, that's the kind of stuff that we're gonna
talk about, like what the film and like you know things,
you know, moments and quotes and things.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
That are just really still with us. Like so people are.
Speaker 8 (30:11):
Picking their movies that they're gonna talk about and it's
gonna be it's gonna be a lot of fun.
Speaker 6 (30:14):
And I don't want to hear it in the chat room.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
I know.
Speaker 6 (30:16):
He said that pitch wasn't good.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
According to Will, Will went and did the Wild Wow
West guys.
Speaker 8 (30:23):
I think I think, especially back then, I think he
was all about like how much control do I have?
I think when you're talking about the Wakowski Brothers at
the time, especially Quentin Tarantino, like it's like, no, you're
on mindset, like you're gonna do like just like he
did like a lot of interviews, and he talked about
how like it basically like the script. You stick to
the script. There's like very little improvising. He's like, you know,
(30:46):
he's in command. So if you're an actor trying to
go like, you know, I'm.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
Just honestly just wanted to ship on the Wow Wow West.
That's really all I've said that. I mean, yeah, like,
there's no way that script wasn't confusing. There's no way
the pitch meeting for the Wild Wow West was just straightforward.
Speaker 2 (31:00):
You know. How that spider got in there though? Right?
Speaker 6 (31:02):
How to get in there?
Speaker 8 (31:03):
Yo, this is great Hollywood trivia, real quick. John Peters
is a producer. He used to be Barbara Streisand's hairdresser.
He ran Warner Brothers and stuff back in the nineties.
He like greenlit Tim Burton's Batman, Right. Yeah, he was
the one who tried to do the Nicholas K. Nicholas
K Superman, right, Yeah, and he was talking he tried
to get Kevin Smith to write it, and so basically
he talked about how he loves spiders and he thought
(31:26):
that there's the scariest, baddest motherfucker's on the planet. And
so basically Kevin Smith had to work out like this
like spider creature for Superman to fight. Long story short,
that Tim Burton Superman movie never happened, right, but John.
Speaker 2 (31:38):
Peters was still obsessed with spiders.
Speaker 8 (31:40):
He was a producer of Wild Wild West and he
finally got a spider.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
With the Kevin Browna. Well that was only one it's
a great Hollywood stree.
Speaker 6 (31:50):
Yeah, that was only one part of what made that
movie bad.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
But yeah, that that's where it was done.
Speaker 6 (31:55):
Yeah, that's so But that's so funny.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
This like the va fly in a while and see
like him get pitched the matrix and be like, I
don't understand what the fuck they're talking about, and then
see him get pitched the w to be like, yeah,
futuristic spider, steampunk train guns. Yeah it makes sense to
mean ship, let's do it. And I get to do
a rap song with Cisco. Oh this motherfucker right here
fit to make all the money.
Speaker 6 (32:18):
Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 8 (32:21):
I dress up a Cisco one time for our Halloway party.
We used to do a party in Queen's.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
I dressed up Pisco. It's a great costan by the way.
Yeah uh, but.
Speaker 8 (32:28):
Niggas was so drunk at the party. The thounless only
came on.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
They tried to. They were like, do the flip. I'm like,
realize why.
Speaker 6 (32:34):
I Am like, it's just a costume. I don't think
it's hours.
Speaker 3 (32:38):
Yeah, I'll tell you what I can do.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Yell at the top of my lungs.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
Okay, because that is what Cisco did that that wild
wild West boy.
Speaker 6 (32:48):
He was like, we had the little straight dude. I'm like, wow,
I'm like.
Speaker 5 (32:53):
This brother, I'm not now that song was my jam.
I ain't even gonna lie and my.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Wild brother is yelling at me. I I have to dance.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
Yeah, that's not even in Cisco slow songs. He's yelling
at you. Yeh, it's cool slowly.
Speaker 5 (33:08):
I love this coat.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Oh man, but this sounds like it's gonna be lit man.
Tell people where it is again to how to get
tickets one more time, yes.
Speaker 8 (33:16):
What the film WTF on Thursday, September fourth at Brooklyn
at Little Field, Come out, go toalk movies, trivia, movie soundtrack, karaoke,
and all that good stuff. You can get tickets at
frodo Blackens dot com. The the disc cold popcorn for
twenty percent off days. I know it's it's stuff out here,
but financial.
Speaker 6 (33:35):
It's hard out here for a pimp.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Okay, guys, you gotta get out here, man, but listen
these I'm taking advantage of these discounts. Okay, I'll be
at Cosco get my gas now, I know what it is.
You gotta yeah, Okay, we see the inflation out here
that's not being reported.
Speaker 8 (33:50):
That prove that is gonna be a problem. And like
by the end of the year because of the way
that they're messing with these numbers. Now that's gonna be
but we might be in the depression and like the
you just won't say anything.
Speaker 3 (34:01):
You know, it's gonna What's gonna bother me the most
is watching how because our information is so siloed, people
who get their news from some sources will be completely
uh lying uh about to the rest of us about
(34:22):
how good or bad things are. So like if gas
is five dollars, the same people that were like gas
went up one cent under body and.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
I said, he gotta go.
Speaker 3 (34:31):
They're gonna be like Fox, who says the gas this
is just how much gas should cost.
Speaker 6 (34:34):
It's gonna be It's gonna drive me crazy.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
I'm not gonna be able to be in spaces talking
to these kind of people because I want to.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
I'm gonna want to choke them when.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
I'm like, no, you were mad because eggs were like
ten cents higher. Now eggs are four dollars higher, and
you seem to be not as upset anymore. And they're
gonna be like, yeah, but that was before you know,
we were rounding up brown people.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (35:00):
It's like we're living alternate realities, you know what I mean.
And Tatiyachi said this a few days ago. She's like,
fuck Kelly and Conway. She's like because she kind of
blames her for the beginning alternate reality ship, the alternate
facts thing, and people just embracing that, like.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
That facts are fast, yeah.
Speaker 5 (35:17):
Which ultimate facts are lies?
Speaker 3 (35:19):
Yeah, which I know y'all know, but you know, is
a long storied history in America, going back to the
inception of it. Of just like white people's feelings are
just facts, like like it just doesn't matter what's the truth,
you know, Like it's uh, you know, it's like after
Reconstruction where they're just like these listen, I know we
(35:42):
fought a whole water keep these people in slaves, and
I know they're free now and they're taking office down.
Speaker 6 (35:47):
Here and all that stuff. But let me tell you,
these blacks, they are mean. Okay, I need some help.
Speaker 3 (35:54):
As a white former slave owner, I'm the real victim
of what's happening. And that became true in America to
the point of like the next amazing compromise in America
was getting rid of Reconstruction, taking all the federal troops
from the South, no longer enforcing all the laws that
had freed black people and protected their rights in the South.
(36:15):
It was just like eight years of white people complaining
in the South and lying being like they listen, they're
not just the mayor. They're also raping all our kids. Okay,
that is what is happening. Like that's not where's the facts.
It just trusts me, you know, And I feel like
this is a long storied history. So we have stuff
like the election was stolen. It is just another example
(36:38):
of like we lost the election, that means it's stolen,
and then the news and politicians we have to act
like that's real. Like people are on the news being like, well, look, factually,
we're not saying it was stolen, but a lot of
people are.
Speaker 6 (36:52):
Saying this election integrity.
Speaker 5 (36:54):
They need to we need to check it.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
It's like, no, they just lost. And it doesn't work
the other way, meaning like black people, brown people, women,
none of our feelings get to be facts. So like
if black people are like, I don't know, man, feels
like something's up with blank, there's not a news apparatus
that is like we let's weaponize that, let's run on that,
(37:17):
let's let's make let's make content that caters to those
black folks.
Speaker 8 (37:21):
And it's so funny like in or like companies and
organizations that worked with in the past that are you
know a lot is majority of all white people in
the c suite and leadership and stuff like that, they
always uh, they're one of their models is always assume
best intent, right, and it's just like right, yeah, we
all all three of us shake it our head. We know,
(37:42):
you know, we know what that's the disguise. Yes, So
if I do some you know, just believe I have
your best interest at heart, Like oh what the layoffs come?
Speaker 2 (37:50):
That's when you're.
Speaker 6 (37:51):
Yeah, and it helps U. It helps that type of uh,
the people who are up on.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
Game and can use those things weaponize that best intent.
It really does help them to slide by because they
know that objectivity in America means you got you can't
ever treat me like a bad faith actor. You know,
I've been in a really not weird place, but in
a like I don't know, last few months. I've just
(38:18):
been seeing like everything is as like so much of
this shit is just content that has destroyed America, Like
it's destroyed life, like content over everything. Everything's content. Your
politics is content. It's not really the rules to like
how you're going to live your life. It's just, hey,
how do we make some fucking how do I get
some views off this shit?
Speaker 1 (38:38):
You know?
Speaker 3 (38:39):
News has turned yeah, news has turned to content. Now
it's not it's not really news. Like it's weird to
me that like Gavin Newsome has spicy tweets and everybody's
like maybe he can be president, and I'm like, that's
weird that y'all weren't fucking with him until he was
tweeting spicy. That should mean something because y'all didn't fuck
(39:00):
with him, y'all didn't like him.
Speaker 6 (39:01):
Now he's tweeting spicy.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
But at the same time, on his podcast, he's having
white supremacists on there and he's doing whole episodes like
we should just have conversations. So the tweets are not
really representative of how he gets down and yet because
it's entertainment, because those tweets are very entertaining, I'm seeing
people be like, you know, maybe we should give him
a chance to be president.
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Yeah, like wrestling, you're following seeing your guy get a
few hits in.
Speaker 8 (39:30):
So much by racist over here because we don't. We
got Schumer and Jefferies over here talking about we wrote
some strong word of emails and people are like.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
What are you doing? They're literally ripping up the constant, right.
Speaker 3 (39:42):
But that's what's wild though, right, So one racist ho
Cogan could also just being But the other the other
thing that's interesting there is because it's content in.
Speaker 6 (39:56):
His theater and it's a show.
Speaker 3 (39:58):
Jeffrey's going on record with a letter is actually what
politicians do and it's supposed to do, especially when they're
not in power, because they don't have any mechanisms to
do anything more than that, Like, we didn't give them
enough to do more. But Jeffries also Philip busted until
he's fucking about to piss on himself. That was just
(40:18):
a couple months ago, and people were like, Wow, you
know what, we get it, This dude cares. And now
we're like, fuck that guy because he don't have the
power to change anything. Republicans have all the power right now,
they have all the numbers they need, they don't need
a single Democrat to help them do shit. And we're
still like you fucking weak Democrats because what we want
is actually content. We don't actually want political governance. If
(40:42):
we did, we'd be like, how do we vote more
people in so that we can get the representation we want?
And Stare were like, why didn't you do an antick
that I can share on my Twitter or I can
talk about in my group chat, because that's more important
than me than like governing. I actually think a big
part of why biding the ministry took so much flex
they're a bad content creator. Yeah, they were good at
(41:04):
governing every statistical measurement. Yeah, every statistical measurement we had
for like what makes it they were they were doing
above me on your unemployment rates, your economy, comparative inflation
around other first world countries in the in the world.
But he was super bad at like a viral moment.
Speaker 6 (41:25):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 8 (41:25):
He was very bad at communicating. And also their team.
You know, it's similar to the show Beat. You know,
they showed the relationship between the vice president the president.
That's exactly what it was with Harris and Biden. I
think that they should have lean more Harris to really
communicate the agenda and what they were doing.
Speaker 2 (41:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (41:40):
Well, but even so, what's even with it about that?
Speaker 1 (41:43):
Right?
Speaker 3 (41:44):
Because Harris, like once again, we live in two different realities.
Harris was out here literally touring constantly, doing events constantly.
It's not getting covered like media. People was like, man,
that's born, and you had media. You had me and
black voting right and maternal health like like she was
(42:07):
she was because you know how old body was.
Speaker 6 (42:10):
She was literally on.
Speaker 3 (42:11):
The on the trail more than he was when it
was even when he was president. She was more right
right exactly, so, which is crazy because if you look
at a lot of headlines, it was where's Kamala Harris?
Meaning the same media outlet that is pretending she's not
doing anything, is the same media outlet that chose not
(42:33):
to show up at her events so they could pretend
that she's not doing anything. That that's like I said,
I don't want to say it's a depressing place, but
I'm in a very cynical place because I'm like, this
ship is so rigged you. At any point, you could
be honest and we could cover it, and then the
rest of us would be able to have at least
some baseline honest conversation. But right now, it's like, if
(42:57):
you want to believe Kamala Harris never did for anybody
as vice president, there are people walking around right now
that think they're informed, who are like, she never did shit.
And then there's other people that are like, she got
sidelined and they didn't do enough with her. And then
there's other people that are like like me, where I'm like,
motherfucker was everywhere if you was paying attention, Yes, just
nobody gave a fuck, right, And at the end of
(43:19):
the day, this is why I get back to the
good faith actor thing or the bad faith actor thing.
At the end of the day, I have no choice
at this point but to feel like it was intentional
that the stuff was framed this way, so that we're
arguing and equivaling with each other, and Republicans are kicking
ass like they're not doing all this equivalent and arguing
(43:39):
amongst the like who they don't give a fuck if
jd Vance is a place or not. They care that
their agenda's getting passed and that's all they care about,
so that no style points.
Speaker 4 (43:49):
And also I think for me as a reasonable and
illogical person and as a person who wants the federal
government to do that which is governing. I remember when
Joe Biden was in office, I was like, he's boring
this shit, But I won't boring. I like to wake
up every day, go to my job, do my shit,
(44:11):
and not have to worry about is he going to
start a ward and not have to worry about is
he talking other to Craig Crazy, to other countries.
Speaker 6 (44:16):
Is he gonna have terraff.
Speaker 5 (44:17):
I didn't have to worry about that shit. I could
live my goddamn life.
Speaker 8 (44:21):
Yeah, yeah, I woke up this morning like I'm just like,
you know, what I'm done reading these articles, these headlines
and stuff, because they're saying they're saying, after that Putin
call the meeting, right, a lot of Trump's people were shook.
I don't know what the fuck that guy said to them,
but they said, like Rubio the press secretary, they were
all like ash and looking and I'm like, what the
hell happened? Was he basically like, y'all gonna give me
(44:43):
Ukraine or I'm gonna take it all y'all out? Like
what the fuck did he do?
Speaker 2 (44:48):
They left?
Speaker 3 (44:49):
They left the meeting notes on a printer because they done,
and people found them. And that's not the onion, guys,
that's not a joke. That's not some shit I'm making
up to be snarked and do the added in the
group chat.
Speaker 8 (45:03):
That that comedy anymore.
Speaker 2 (45:07):
It's real life now.
Speaker 6 (45:08):
Yes, government papers. This is from NPR dot org. Guys.
This is a real it's a real website.
Speaker 3 (45:16):
Researched government papers found in an Alaskan hotel revealed new
details of Trump Pollutin's summit. What the motherfuck this is
amateur hour. These are from the same people that said
what about her emails, who've been to act and caught
on the like the the the the signal chat sending
fucking war plans to fucking journalists by accident, Like this
(45:39):
is what we have let be in charge. This is
why I'm you know, I get it. I know I'm
going against the grain here in a world that thinks
objectivity is like we need to be critical of both sides.
Speaker 6 (45:52):
I'm so done with that shit.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
Right.
Speaker 3 (45:54):
We are not in an even situation where we can
play it like, well, you know, democrats got some things
to work on too. This ain't it like this, Like
if there's a time for that, we are well, we
are well passed that fucking time. Because this ship is
going to get people killed. This is not like I'm
not exaggerating, I'm not trying to be hyperbolic. There there
(46:16):
is something that is going to happen under the watch
of these people who are extremely unprofessional, extremely unqualified services,
who only care about grifting and loyalty to Trump and
shit like that. Something yes, and we're they are being
put in charge.
Speaker 6 (46:34):
Of all of us.
Speaker 3 (46:35):
Something catastrophic will happen because it happens on everyone's watch.
These motherfuckers don't care about us, and they will not
be qualified to handle it. This like getting rid of
all the vaccine experts and the funding for it. So
what the next COVID takes all of us out, Like
we're people aren't thinking because they just I think so
(46:56):
many people because honestly a lot of times Democrats do
a thankless job because we take them for granted. We're like, no,
those are the rules, and then it'll just be that way.
And as we're losing all the shit that people took
for granted, like the right to abortion, I'm not I'm
not playing the hey man, you know.
Speaker 6 (47:15):
King Jeffres could have said that a little better.
Speaker 3 (47:18):
It doesn't fucking matter anymore, it doesn't We're well pass
a good speech at this point.
Speaker 2 (47:25):
Oh yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 8 (47:26):
Hear you there, Like I just you know, it's kind
of like sometimes you just need something to beat up,
and so you going for the most obvious thing. But yeah,
because when you dig deeper like this, this is some
fatalists Like I'm just like, I'm just gonna ride this
to That's why I'm doing shows like what the film.
I'm like, I'm just gonna do what makes me happy. Yeah,
hurt as well, because how do we recover as a
country with this because like you said, something really really
(47:49):
bad is gonna happen, and you know, these magic people
are not going to eat qroll and say exactly, we
really fucked up by like electing this dictator. They're not
gonna bat down because if they do, they're probably facing
criminal justice system.
Speaker 2 (48:01):
Correct, And it's like, what's.
Speaker 3 (48:04):
You can't you can't look at the same people who
still worship Confederate losers to not worship these current losers
like you like people like I saw Joey Reid got
tricked the other day on Instagram where she shared the
AI clip of Joe Rogan. And in the AI clip,
Joe Rogan is like shitting on Trump like.
Speaker 6 (48:26):
This guy he's like a dictator. I don't understand, you know,
like and like.
Speaker 3 (48:30):
Dude, you're freaking people out or whatever, you know, like
and the her audience, you know, some of them were like,
that's not Joe, that's an AI clip because you know,
people do keep up with it.
Speaker 6 (48:41):
It's the most popular podcast.
Speaker 3 (48:42):
Like motherfuckers would know if he was it wouldn't just
be like on Instagram if he did that, it'd be everywhere.
But also like joy Red like had deleted it and
like put like a little bit of a correction.
Speaker 6 (48:55):
It was like, yeah, well, maga is they are the
ones who got tricked.
Speaker 3 (49:00):
And I was thinking to myself, like, but that's just
a that is a fantasy that we have as liberal people,
that these guys are going to have buyers of Morrison
think they got tricked. I hope you're right, but just
saying it doesn't make it right. They have to feel
this way before it's real. So sharing a fake clip
(49:21):
that they don't actually that didn't happen, it actually doesn't
make me feel like, oh yeah, it's just a matter
of time. I'm like, Joe Rogan is probably somewhere looking
at that same fake clip, going now, I'll never admit
I was wrong, because no one's ever gonna clown me
the way Joy Reeve was clowning.
Speaker 2 (49:38):
Yeah, And I think also who was the journalist.
Speaker 8 (49:42):
The journalists who did like the roundtable with like twenty
five Magat people and young it was like young Magat people,
and they were like talking about how they like fucked
with the Confederacy, they like fucked the NAZA, like they
didn't think that, you know, they say the thing wrong
about like World War two and things like that, And
he was like he did the rounds. He was like
on the bulwark and stuff, and he was like, I
was so terrified about how young and racist these young
(50:04):
people die with older white men. It's like, no, it's
very much a lot. And I.
Speaker 3 (50:11):
Listened to a podcast on the media a couple of
weeks ago. They had an episode about the Jubilee because
I you know, once again, like I said, I know
I'm in a very cynical place, but I think I'm
just being realistic.
Speaker 6 (50:22):
But I hate Jubilee. I hate it to the core.
Speaker 3 (50:26):
I actually think it's the problem. I know they're pitching
it as the solution. I think it actually has made
us worse as a society. And the reason is made
and like if you listen to the founders, the founders
will say, well, we came up with this because after
the twenty sixteen election, when Trump won and we saw
young people were supporting Trump, we were so disturbed. We
were like, we need to have conversations. We need to
(50:47):
get these people in a room and.
Speaker 6 (50:48):
Talk to them.
Speaker 3 (50:50):
Like it doesn't need to be like seeingn where they
have people on and they're just debating and arguing and Buddy,
I don't know how to tell.
Speaker 2 (50:57):
You all this.
Speaker 6 (50:58):
You took the news out of in and now it's
only the argument. It's worse. It's crack. It's the crack
cocaine of the like.
Speaker 3 (51:06):
If you think, what is that lady's name, Abby Phillips,
I think it's her name, oh on seeing none.
Speaker 8 (51:13):
Yes, so you know Abby Phillips, so beautiful and talented
and she has these crazy motherfuckers.
Speaker 6 (51:20):
So Abby Phillips.
Speaker 3 (51:22):
I well, I think it's honestly, I think it's the
Scott Jenning Show, and I think Abby Abby Phillips is there. Yeah,
Abby Phillips is there to give us the the disguise.
She's there to give us the disguise. That is not
the Scott Jennings Show. It's the Scott Jenning Show. It's
how because listen, if Scott Jennings, if it was called
the Scott Jenning Show, you would never get four progressive
(51:44):
to liberal people to show up to debate him. But
if you call it the Abbey Phillips Show, which Scott
Jennings just happening to be there every single fucking episode,
now you can book people who are otherwise reasonable people
who typically wouldn't do.
Speaker 6 (51:58):
A show like that. The go yeah, I'll come on
and hang out with Abby.
Speaker 3 (52:01):
But all they're really doing is getting views, and then
it's going viral, and every clip of that show is
Scott Jennings said something horrible to an educated, smart, well researched, nuanced,
intelligent person, and then that person responds back, and then
people debate in the chat room. But my point, my
point being, like, imagine what Jubilee did was at least
(52:24):
on Abby Phillips show. Right, you have an introduction of
a topic.
Speaker 6 (52:28):
Right, it's oh.
Speaker 3 (52:30):
Inflation was up this percentage of the time and this
percent right now, and this is doing this, this and this,
and now we're gonna have our panelists talk about it. Right,
Jubilee basically said fuck the news part, like, get rid
of what like the two percent the facts that.
Speaker 6 (52:44):
We all are basing this on.
Speaker 3 (52:46):
We're not even starting with that, We're just starting with
hey man, let's just argue about shit. Trans people have rights.
Here's a trans person and here's a biggie bam and
the problem.
Speaker 2 (52:56):
With that, Like, you know, I.
Speaker 8 (52:58):
Completely hear you there, liked medisans the journalists name what
did you believe?
Speaker 1 (53:03):
Think? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (53:04):
Like, because all that ship for me, I don't I
don't watch this and think like these people are gonna
save us, you know what I mean, like you know
them or pots save America and Chile that like they
haven't saved ship, right, But also like the fat checking alone,
I knew we were cooked when debates like you know
they they made it. We're like, we're not going to
fact check him in person. That's gonna be on the opponent.
It's like, no, you have a candidate that notoriously tells untruth, right,
(53:29):
you have to check him in real time because it
shows the American public, Yo, everything this guy says is bullshit, right,
even that the state of the country, like you hate.
Speaker 3 (53:40):
Even further than that, even further than that, the fact
that they gave up on it because it wasn't working.
That's like, like I said, I hate to sound so
dark right now, but these are my real, unfiltered thoughts, y'all.
The fact that they did used to do and it
(54:01):
had no bearing on this man's perception of his performance
or his followers perception of his performance. So they used
to as arduous the task as it was, be like
in real time, this is a lie. This is a lie,
This is a lie. They would have the moderators because
they have a thing in their ear. And the moderator
(54:22):
would even say, like, you just lied, and he'd be
like nine nine's no, I didn't lie. You're you know,
you're a nasty woman. And instead of it becoming like
a referendum on like this guy's a liar, he shouldn't
be held in office, his people will share the ooh,
look how he slammed Megan Kelly for correcting him. That's
the kind of guy I want to be president. That
(54:44):
that's the scary.
Speaker 6 (54:45):
Part to me.
Speaker 3 (54:45):
It's not that it's not it's like they didn't give
up because they never tried. They gave up because they
tried and they said it doesn't work. And now everybody
news medi his sign to Jubilee whatever, everybody's in on
it for it's just like medi a soign. When they
interview him on the media and he's talking about they're
like do you regret going on there?
Speaker 6 (55:06):
Or what do you think was it worth it? And
he's like, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (55:09):
And the reason he's like I don't know is cause
he's like I don't know how many views and people
i'll get to follow me that'll be aware of me
and maybe they'll start messing with me versus how many
of these no name biggots did you just helped platform
and legitimize because they set across from you, they split
the screen evenly with you, and they said, biggot it
(55:31):
lies and you said facts. But the people like one
guy lost his job and then the guy raised like
money and money.
Speaker 6 (55:39):
Yeah, he raised money on gofund me, and now who knows,
he'll be some podcasting five years from now.
Speaker 3 (55:44):
Will be like, man, this guy's biggest his biggest hit
was when he got fired arguing with Meddi Hassan, and
now he's bigger than Medi Hassan. Possibly, Like that's what
the fuck we're facing in that part is why, like
I said, I feel so dark about everything.
Speaker 8 (55:57):
I mean, that's I think that's why a lot of
people are just like, you know, actually black folks, we're
just focusing on self care, right, but makes us like
feel good. We're not We're not gonna go all out
and protests and organize and things like that, because this
country show who they are. Half the country didn't even vote.
How different half the country or incompetent they are the
other half, Like you know, we know how that all
(56:19):
panned out, and you know, like I'm I'm constantly terrified
by people that think they know everything when they their
track record proofs that they do very very little, They
have very little skills.
Speaker 2 (56:29):
To offer society.
Speaker 8 (56:31):
Like Tati has a cousin right that's like very much
like has very never had a job, struggles do everything,
and yet has the audacity to be like, oh, y'all
get headaches because you've got parasites that it pat to
your body and like you know, it comes from all
the processed food you be eating and stuff.
Speaker 2 (56:49):
That's why I go full organic.
Speaker 8 (56:51):
It's like, you know, your kids call us last week
because there's no food in the house, so I don't
know what what are you doing? Things like that where
I'm like, oh, but these people think that they're like
they that they're.
Speaker 2 (57:02):
Watching a sound.
Speaker 3 (57:04):
It's those It's those dudes looking at Megan a Stallion
and being like, uh, she got a little bit of
cell you like, and then they look like a sack
of potatoes, like it's that but for everything.
Speaker 4 (57:14):
Yeah, And also Brandon, I think Roger has said this before.
Back in the day, when people were dumb, they were
dumb alone. The Internet has allowed groups of dumbies to
be a collective and say we're dumb together, so we're
gonna spew whatever stupidity and ignorance we have, and we're collective.
And people think a collective is always right, and that's
not true.
Speaker 6 (57:35):
All right, listen, guys, we've already been talking for an hour.
Speaker 5 (57:37):
This is this is on me politics until we got mad.
Speaker 3 (57:41):
Yeah, I need to play music so we can put
commercials in here. These commercials might be random as fuck, guys,
like I don't know, the AI might just throw these
commercials in the middle of our of our sentences because
I forgot to make segments out of this. So now
I'm gonna play some music so we will know where
to put at least one commercial, and we're gonna come
right back and talking about some other news.
Speaker 6 (58:33):
Love her, girl, I love that. All right, let's talk
about some news, guys.
Speaker 3 (58:39):
I saw a an article from Campus Reform Okay, and
the title was going viral on all my social media's.
Seventy of gen Z job seekers have brought a parent
to an interview.
Speaker 6 (58:56):
Survey Frands that was real?
Speaker 5 (58:58):
Is that real?
Speaker 1 (59:00):
Live?
Speaker 3 (59:00):
Twenty twenty five survey from Resume Templates found that seventy
seven percent of gen Z respondents admitted to bringing a
parent to a job interview, and fifty three percent said
that parent had spoken with the hiring manager on their behalf.
Speaker 6 (59:14):
A resume.
Speaker 3 (59:14):
Dot org survey of hiring managers found that fifty six
percent encountered unprepared gen Z applicants. Okay, now I know
what you're thinking, guys, because I saw this happen in
real time, and there were two people. There were two
sides of this on my Facebook page when I posted
this without comment actually no, My comment was I don't
believe this, But people were being like, no, because these
(59:36):
kids and they got the helicopter parents and our generation,
we're too overly involved in our kids' lives, were not letting.
Speaker 6 (59:44):
Them grow up blah blah. Okay, so they believed it.
Speaker 3 (59:47):
Then there were the other people that were like these
fucking kids or soft these days, So they believed it
because no one likes the generation after them. I just
found this whole thing to sound completely fucking ridiculous.
Speaker 6 (59:58):
I hear what I hear what people.
Speaker 3 (01:00:01):
I know what we want to believe about other people.
But I was like, let me dive deeper into it.
So I adopted a little deeper into it because these
stats were crazy, and the woman who wrote it is
Emily Sturge. Emily Sturge is a reporter for Campus Reform.
She has also appeared on Fox News, Fox Business, Newsmax,
Real America's Voice, Salem TV News Nation, and The National Death.
(01:00:24):
She earned her the Grand Journalism for the University of Florida.
Speaker 6 (01:00:27):
I'm like phom.
Speaker 5 (01:00:30):
Because that sounded so wild. I think I read that
article and I was like.
Speaker 3 (01:00:34):
Looking at her other stories on the website. Analysis new
Trump memo closes affirmative actions backdoor access in the DEI infrastructure.
Female ACCTTE refused to stand next to a male so
they took her metal video. Let's see Oklahoma ends in
state tuition for illegal immigrants after dj lawsuit analysis discounted
(01:00:59):
to wish and scholarships, free legal services for illegal immigrants.
Speaker 6 (01:01:03):
Needs to go. Uh For some reason, she.
Speaker 3 (01:01:06):
Posted the the uh oh yeah. New York College requires
DEI statements for physics lecture lecturer construction coordinator.
Speaker 6 (01:01:14):
X Ray researcher.
Speaker 3 (01:01:15):
So I think she has a slant, guys, I think
she has a particular way that she leaves.
Speaker 6 (01:01:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:01:22):
So like before we all get in our heck, goes
about like these young kids. The way they did the survey.
One of the misleading things they did, they said, if
a parent drove you to your interview, they counted they
counted that as them brought bringing a parent to an interview.
Speaker 5 (01:01:44):
That's not the same. You might not be able to drive.
Speaker 4 (01:01:46):
You might not because younger generations sometimes they didn't always
get licenses.
Speaker 3 (01:01:50):
But when I say, when I say brought brought a
parent to an interview, what what in your minds?
Speaker 6 (01:01:55):
I did you see? You saw a parent sitting over
someone's shoulder being like no, baby, you no, don't tell
them that.
Speaker 8 (01:02:02):
This resume come look right, look at that he helped
me at the bakery on the weekends.
Speaker 4 (01:02:07):
Right, and them driving you to the interview is completely different, crazy,
not the same because they're not actually doing the work.
Speaker 3 (01:02:13):
It's just insane and like, some of these things are
so innocuous. One in six hiring managers reported gen Z
applicants use their phones during their interview. That's not a
death knel, because I'm imagining we are, because we every
single person here has done this.
Speaker 6 (01:02:28):
Hey, Brandon, so what year did that movie come out?
I think it was, you know, Actually, when we look
this up. It was ninety six. Simple, I don't go unhiable, motherfucker.
They make it.
Speaker 3 (01:02:41):
Sound like they're in an interview going, uh, They're like,
so what's your experience.
Speaker 6 (01:02:46):
Sorry, I'm on TikTok looking at uh my man Brandon Comics,
Jair person a good crowd work. Like that's like they
want us.
Speaker 3 (01:02:54):
To hate, like to have this hatred towards these young kids,
uh and and towards really everybody.
Speaker 6 (01:03:00):
These Republicans want us to have this hatred in fear
of each other.
Speaker 3 (01:03:04):
Yeah, like no one deserves to have a job or
they you know, it's just kind of crazy.
Speaker 6 (01:03:09):
But yeah, I just wanted.
Speaker 3 (01:03:10):
To dissect that that article from campus reform dot org,
which I don't even know what else they post on
campus reform, but I'm I'm betting it all has a slant.
Speaker 8 (01:03:20):
Yeah yeah, I mean I bet you that journalist probably
got burned at University of Florida by like a younger
student and she's just I'm com up with you motherfuckers.
Like yeah, she was like, yeah, that hat just feels
like sexual frustration, you know what I mean, That's that's
how it always feels, especially with like Steven Miller and
motherfuckers like that, talking like, oh you just never got
(01:03:41):
to release like healthy, you know what I mean, Like
where you didn't feel conflicted or burdened with all your
hatred white supremacy.
Speaker 3 (01:03:50):
There's a level of passion there that just doesn't shouldn't
apply to anything. Yeah, I'm on their web I'm on
their website, and this is what it looks like. Like
I said, it's just funny because right I posted this
link and man, I'm not gonna embarrass anybody by reading
that comments from my Facebook. But the way people went
off the title, it just didn't click.
Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
Shit.
Speaker 3 (01:04:12):
I was like, what like this recently happened to me?
Apparently the Colin Kaepernick Spike Lee series about him taking
the knees it's dead, it's not coming out. ESPN won't
put it out, and they cited creative differences.
Speaker 6 (01:04:31):
The NFL just by.
Speaker 5 (01:04:32):
A got killed, but it got killed.
Speaker 3 (01:04:37):
And somebody was like and I was like, well, that
ten percent steak is already paying dividends, and this guy goes,
I don't think so Spike Lee would have spoken out
if it was da da da da, And I said,
did you read the article, because in the article he
says I can't speak out because I signed the NBA,
so like this would have taken one second to do.
I don't know you wrote. You wrote longer in your
(01:04:59):
tweet than it would have taken to find out that
he can't speak on it. And he's openly saying I
can't speak on it regardless of what happened. But anyway,
here's what's on their website. Federal judge won't block d
I've been at Alabama public schools. You penned on her hopes,
multimillion dollar players demands his name be removed from building.
Baylor students tried to cancel professor over transgender comments. They
(01:05:21):
failed miserably. This is a right wing outrage site essentially,
so it looks like, yeah, it's so, it's just funny
because I think the headline. I've seen so many people
share a screenshot of the headline and be like, these
fucking kids, man, they're so soft, and I'm like, they're
depending on you to be that way.
Speaker 8 (01:05:40):
I mean, I appreciate you doing the extra digging rod.
Like when I see highlights like that, I just like say,
make sure and then I just keep it moving, like
unless it's from a reputable source like yeah, you know,
and even then sometimes it could be like, depending on
who the journalist.
Speaker 4 (01:05:53):
Is, sometimes it's an opinion piece and that actually that
time is funny, real journalism, Yeah.
Speaker 8 (01:06:00):
Exactly, and it's just like okay, but I feel like,
you know, as someone who used to hire young people
like I never like, yeah, there'd be some extra awkwardness
that I wasn't used to and stuff, or maybe like some
some egos that need to be deflated a little bit.
But it was never like I'm bringing my parents like yeah,
but the applica's had anxiety, Yeah, never did.
Speaker 3 (01:06:21):
It was it was a thing that on its face
sounds ridiculous, and I know that people respond to it
because it sounds ridiculous. But like, like I was having
a conversation with a friend. We're talking about the clip
of David Justice talking about Holly Berry. And if you've
seen the clip, it's from Matt Barnes.
Speaker 6 (01:06:43):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:06:43):
Basically, they had to sit down with David Justice and
it's actually a pretty good introspective interview, but no one's
gonna go listen to the interview. But the clip they
put out was him saying, like the reason his marriage
with Holly Berry didn't work out is because he expected
her to do all this life work, this this domestic
work around the house, you know, cooking, cleaning, mothering, blah
(01:07:05):
blah blah. And if you and that's just the only
part of the clip they put out was him saying
just that, if you go listen to the whole interview
or even look at the whole just the whole segment
for just that, he says he had to go to therapy.
Speaker 6 (01:07:20):
He says he was young, he was immature.
Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
He didn't understand at the time that you know how
ridiculous though that was for him to want her to
do that, Right, So he's openly acknowledging like this, I'm
sharing you this with you guys, because I'm saying I
was fucked up and wrong, and the world is taking
the one clip and that's Matt Marr's fault, right. Matt
Mars put it out because he knew we.
Speaker 6 (01:07:42):
Would act that way.
Speaker 3 (01:07:44):
So we get gender wars going, and so everyone spending
time like they're even saying, like, didn't you abuse Holly Berry?
Speaker 6 (01:07:49):
He didn't.
Speaker 3 (01:07:50):
That's allegedly Wesley Snipes who appeared what we decided, that's okay.
None of us have canceled him for some reason, but
it was so it was it was just because me
and my friend are talking and she's like, you know,
especially as a black woman, like this is upsetting.
Speaker 6 (01:08:06):
Don't I get to be upset?
Speaker 3 (01:08:08):
And I was like, the conversation we're having isn't one
of whether or not.
Speaker 6 (01:08:12):
You can be upset.
Speaker 3 (01:08:13):
Like, I completely agree with you that the idea of
putting this out is offensive, Like, because what that means
is when they put that clip out, they went, we
know how people are gonna feel, we know they're gonna fight,
fuck their feelings. We want the clip to go viral,
and the fighting will help us go viral. That's, you know,
no offense to Ryan Clark, but it's the same thing
(01:08:34):
I felt when he put out to Simone Bios clip
where her husband's being like, she the one that came
in me. I'm like, that whole thing is cute if
you put out say seven minutes where she comes in
and they talk and it's.
Speaker 6 (01:08:46):
Actually kind of a cute exchange. But if you put out.
Speaker 3 (01:08:49):
Two minutes, take out the cuteness of it. Now you're
just setting this couple up to get a lot of
scrutiny from a bunch of strangers who will only see
your clip.
Speaker 6 (01:08:58):
They won't watch your block ast, and they're gonna be like, oh,
he's a fucking narcissist.
Speaker 3 (01:09:02):
She this woman is the greatest gymnast in the world,
and this is how her husband talks. There won't be
anything cute about it. They don't see the couple dynamic.
They just see the clip. And what I was expressing
to my friend was like, it saddens me that we
have been around long enough to know better, meaning right,
I knew when I saw this headline to click on
(01:09:24):
it and go just ten seconds into detail to be like, Okay,
this was bullshit. I figured we all have the same education.
Now Internet's been around too long, can't we can't pretend
like what like, this wasn't from from This wasn't from NPR,
this wasn't from the AP, this was from a place.
You know, these podcasts they're not journalistic podcasts where they're
(01:09:49):
even And then at this point, shit they won right
because CNN doing it right, Abby Phillis is putting out
shit like this.
Speaker 6 (01:09:54):
My point being like we all know.
Speaker 3 (01:09:56):
Better, and so the I guess I think the sadness
comes in where I'm like, there's something in us that
wants to be fed kindling for the fires of rage
that we have inside of us.
Speaker 4 (01:10:12):
Yeah, constantly, because it's so many things that we can't control, and.
Speaker 6 (01:10:16):
We don't seem to care anymore. Like I think it,
like I think it, I don't think it.
Speaker 3 (01:10:23):
I'm not invalidating someone's feelings. I'm not saying you shouldn't
be upset by this. What I'm saying is in an
environment where they're counting on us to be upset, and
they're counting on our upset to make us blind to context. Yes,
I think actually, And for the record, I'm not saying
(01:10:46):
this doesn't matter like I think obviously, this cut of
a thousand, a thousand slices of annoyance. It adds up
into an environment that you know, I you know it happened.
I'm a black person. This ship happens all the time.
I see something like what the fuck? And then I'm
and I'm like, is that really gonna affect my life?
Not really, but like, yes, the environment is upsetting, like
(01:11:06):
I get it. But the fact that we know this
is just a dirty trick that Matt Barnes did and
it worked anyway. Yeah, that's what makes me feel like
we're cooked. That's sadder because I don't think it's not reasonable.
I think it's very reasonable to see that clip and
be like that's fucked up. It's but the fact that
(01:11:27):
it's not also reasonable to be like, oh, then I
went and watch the interview and David Justin's actually kind
of took care ofing for himself and said he was
wrong and immature and with the therapy, and you know,
he wouldn't feel that way today.
Speaker 6 (01:11:39):
That part is it's like, fuck what you just said.
I want to be mad. That says something about us.
Speaker 8 (01:11:45):
And that's where like I get, you know, going back
to what you were saying earlier, ran about like we
need like there's gonna be like a catastrophic event that's
gonna have to reset everything, you know what I mean, Like,
and it's gonna have to be big. It's gonna have
to be because the pandemic wasn't it be it like
it's gonna be It's gotta be something that's herowing that like, Yeah,
(01:12:07):
it's scary when you think about what could that possibly be.
Speaker 6 (01:12:10):
I don't know, because that's the thing.
Speaker 3 (01:12:13):
It won't be something we predict, you know what I'm
saying like there will be somebody somewhere that we will
pull up a video where it's like, did you see
this conference seventeen years ago where a guy said like
they did with the pandemic, where it's like, here's this
one conference where this one guy was like, you know,
a pandemic could destroy us.
Speaker 2 (01:12:29):
Yeah, twenty years it might be.
Speaker 4 (01:12:33):
Yeah, like I'll be dead and going like I don't know,
Like I can't even.
Speaker 6 (01:12:40):
Right, Yeah, I.
Speaker 7 (01:12:41):
Pull out my iPhone camera, write mustache twiling, and ship
get the cast to the casting on this, but yeah,
there's something.
Speaker 3 (01:12:52):
Yeah, that's the scariest part is that whatever it is,
we won't predict, right, who knows whether it's some terrorism
or a fucking disease or fucking uh depression, Like none
of us knows.
Speaker 6 (01:13:05):
We just know we won't be prepared.
Speaker 8 (01:13:07):
But I go dark to the point where like it's
like it's gotta be so bad that it gets this
dude out of that because folks, let's be honest, like
he ain't leaving in twenty twenty eight, right when you
do want to remodel and like the White House the
way that he's planning on doing with hundreds of millions
of dollars being done. You don't do that when you
know you're out in like less than four years, right, right, you.
Speaker 2 (01:13:27):
Know what I mean?
Speaker 8 (01:13:27):
Like there's some things that he's doing where it's like guys,
he's planting roots.
Speaker 3 (01:13:32):
They're trying to they're trying to steal the they're already
trying to get data and stuff for states and their
local votering and registration records and all this stuff.
Speaker 6 (01:13:42):
And that's what was doing, yes.
Speaker 3 (01:13:44):
And the thing is you put these people in charge
so like where you could be like this is unfair
or whatever, those actually are in the auspices of the offices.
They operate like those powers are part of what they get.
Speaker 6 (01:13:58):
They won when they one.
Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
So there's people that are gonna be like you know,
they're gonna do something fucked up. It's like yeah, and
we knew that in November. Like like this, Like like
you said, I feel like a lot of us, especially
black people, are just holding our heads down.
Speaker 6 (01:14:12):
And I don't mean.
Speaker 3 (01:14:12):
Holding our hands down like scared, but like holding our
hands down like prepared, like hey, some shit is about
to pop off.
Speaker 6 (01:14:19):
We got to do what we can to protect each other, protect.
Speaker 3 (01:14:22):
Our own spaces because this whole thing where black people
are gonna save the country and save the world.
Speaker 6 (01:14:28):
Motherfucker. This ain't heroes.
Speaker 3 (01:14:29):
I'm trying to save my friends and myself and my community,
and I hope the world makes it to the other
side and that there's a world to come back to
if we get through this.
Speaker 8 (01:14:39):
I waited for Obama to make a speech just like
what you just said, RD the things, you know, because
if the Epstein advice gets real tight on Trump, he's
going to push for prosecution against Obama and.
Speaker 6 (01:14:50):
He's already doing it.
Speaker 8 (01:14:52):
We're gonna get an online video from Obama and Michelle
a like undisclosed area listen, America, even with all the best.
Speaker 5 (01:14:59):
Right, yeah, people don't st yes.
Speaker 6 (01:15:01):
Yeah, and like Obama's one of those true believer guys.
Speaker 3 (01:15:04):
But it also sucks because like the there's this weird
like daddy issue people have with Obama where it's like
they get mad at him when he doesn't say shit,
but then when he says shit, they say us, Yeah,
they get mad that he does say shit when he does,
like he never.
Speaker 6 (01:15:19):
He can never do it right.
Speaker 3 (01:15:20):
Whatever the whatever he does is always like the wrong
thing to do things, which feels like like like we're
all teenagers rebelling against a parent.
Speaker 8 (01:15:31):
If I can, just like you know, like to pivot
from this or whatever, but like to again, you guys
out for your support everything. When I was going through
a really dark period in twenty twenty three ish with
like you know, the writers' strike, things happening.
Speaker 2 (01:15:45):
With Gordon, with drunk.
Speaker 8 (01:15:47):
Black history and things like that, it like your encouragement
to keep going was great. But also it came at
a time where I realized, and I think the country
would be very well served to do this as well.
I realized, no one's gonna say me, no one's gonna
help me. Shit happens, Shit doesn't work out, You get betrayed,
you get screwed over, you lose opportunities, things like that.
(01:16:07):
Only I can impact change, Like I can't expect mysterious
things that happen that are gonna work in my favor.
I have to do what I can to change my
path and my trajectory right my career. And I think
so many people want someone like a political figure or
some work or something like that to change your life,
to change the decisions and the mistakes that they made
(01:16:28):
so they can feel better about themselves. They don't have
any shame anymore. It's okay to feel shame. I think
that we got away from that for the reason it's
okay to feel shame, So kay to feel sad. It's
okay to feel embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (01:16:39):
But move on. You're not dead.
Speaker 3 (01:16:41):
Like I've in a gym dog, because that's the thing
I can control.
Speaker 8 (01:16:46):
Shout out to you and your Oh yeah, I appreciate
it with that congratulations.
Speaker 3 (01:16:50):
But like part of that is is like a mental
health thing for me, where it's like, hey, man, I
could control how many times I lift this way, how
much better I get at it each time, Like I
can see progress in my body and my accomplishments. I
can't control Abby Phillips and Scott Jennings. I can't control
(01:17:13):
people losing their fucking minds over a headline that says
seventy seven percent of these kids are bringing a parent
to the interview and they go.
Speaker 6 (01:17:20):
That's gotta be true. No need to investigate that, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:17:23):
I can't control the like, especially as a podcaster, like
this bothers me a lot, but it's not it's nothing
I can do about it.
Speaker 6 (01:17:30):
But like the people who are winning.
Speaker 3 (01:17:32):
At podcasting and the stuff they're doing like it. I
think it's very unscrupulous to have a guest on your
show take a clip of that guess that puts them
in a bad light and be like, well, at least
we got the views.
Speaker 6 (01:17:44):
Like if I was David Justice, I'd be like, yo,
y'all fucked me up? Man, why'd y'all do that?
Speaker 3 (01:17:48):
Like, like, I came on that because I trusted you brothers,
and I thought we were having a real, like introspective
conversations acts who had gone through some shit and come
out on the other side. And the clip you put
out is the one that makes it sound like I'm like,
I'm in twenty twenty five being like, listen, man, this bitch,
Holly Barrett, she needs to learn how to be a woman.
Speaker 8 (01:18:08):
David Justice felt like Henry Winklear the last season to Bury,
where he was like, I was just trying to help
this guy out for everything, right right, I'm sorry, that's
one of the funniest, like that perforemance, like the episode
where he gets like caught, like you know, he gets.
Speaker 2 (01:18:23):
Charged and ship. Yeah every Weekler deserved the Emmy for that.
So good, bro, he.
Speaker 6 (01:18:27):
Was so good.
Speaker 3 (01:18:27):
What a show man, you know, like, uh, I'll save
this Drake update for another day.
Speaker 6 (01:18:37):
What right, say what.
Speaker 2 (01:18:43):
Ever gonna get back to the level that he now?
Speaker 6 (01:18:45):
No, obviously not.
Speaker 5 (01:18:46):
No, he's good.
Speaker 2 (01:18:47):
Does he know that?
Speaker 5 (01:18:49):
No? No, he don't know that. And that's the problem, right, Bro, I've.
Speaker 6 (01:18:52):
Never seen anyone you know what. Fuck, let's talk about Drake.
Speaker 3 (01:18:55):
I've never seen anyone crash out like this in my lifetime.
I'm not joking, and I know it sounds hyperbolic, but
I really truly do mean this. There are rappers who
either killed someone or got killed in a beef that
have come out better than Drake. Like that's crazy, that's
(01:19:17):
crazy to be like, yeah, man, better to get murdered
in the street than to live like this man is
living right now, suing, and so he's suing UMG. It
has died out in the news for a while to
a point where I was thinking, like, maybe it's.
Speaker 5 (01:19:33):
Not gonna go go anywhere.
Speaker 3 (01:19:35):
Maybe he just did that for the press and then
he's gonna quietly drop it. No, he means it, and
so UMG has had to respond to it, and Lucy
and Grange, who is like the UMG CEO, finally kind
of clapped back with his own legal filings, because Drake's
been alleging like, oh, UMG set me up.
Speaker 6 (01:19:55):
They put Kendrick up to this.
Speaker 3 (01:19:57):
They lied about how popular, not like is no one
really likes gn X and not like us.
Speaker 2 (01:20:03):
They right, they.
Speaker 3 (01:20:04):
Did something with Spotify to make Spotify.
Speaker 4 (01:20:08):
So doing a sow that tour with SIZZM, but he
not popular. Nobody liked it.
Speaker 2 (01:20:12):
Right.
Speaker 3 (01:20:12):
They did something with Spotify somehow to make Spotify inflate
the numbers of streams when it wasn't that right number.
And Drake knows, because Drake's like, uh, don't ask me
how I know. I mean, I'm the real number one
hit maker, but UMG makes people have bigger hits than
they're supposed to. I'm like, so did they do it
for you? We're not talking about that, We're talking about Kendred.
(01:20:35):
And then, as I pointed out, you're like when the
shit started a year or so ago, I was like, okay,
So I just want to go through the timeline.
Speaker 6 (01:20:43):
It's important.
Speaker 3 (01:20:44):
Drake says that this man won't drop this album.
Speaker 6 (01:20:50):
Begs On puts two songs he does.
Speaker 3 (01:20:52):
I remember fake Ai Tupac song that we've all forgotten
about with Tupac and fake Snoop Dog and then and
then of course you know drop drop.
Speaker 5 (01:21:01):
You know, push up and antagonizing.
Speaker 3 (01:21:04):
Kendrick does drop and then he drops and he drops
and he drops. And so he also had accused Kendrick
and these songs of beating his wife, his kids not
being his matter of fact, his kids being day Freeze
genetically somehow, and and asking why his wife doesn't follow
(01:21:24):
him on Instagram it was this weird shit like or
his mother's child whatever. So in this lawsuit, because I went, Okay,
that's crazy, because he's suing. He's suing Drake and and
he's like, you call me a pedophile, I'm suing you.
Uh you said this thing, this, this and the other
thing about me.
Speaker 6 (01:21:41):
I'm suing. I don't like that.
Speaker 3 (01:21:42):
You know, you guys fucking lied on me, trying to
destroy my reputation. And I'm like, so am I to
be led to believe that in your this song you
weren't just talking shit. You believe this man's kids aren't his.
You believe that that's a thing that you you think
you have some evidence. In this latest filing of this lawsuit,
(01:22:03):
he is asking u MG to somehow compel Kendrick Lamar
to get his children a DNA test to.
Speaker 6 (01:22:11):
Prove they are his fucking kids. This was a rap beef?
Speaker 2 (01:22:17):
What have it?
Speaker 3 (01:22:19):
Brother, You're never getting You're never getting it back. He
wants them to prove Kendrick Lamar didn't or did beat
his wife with some non existent police reports that we
don't they It's like, hey, Karen, can you prove you're
not beating your husband?
Speaker 6 (01:22:36):
How to fuck do I prove a thing that's not happy?
And why would you ever put that in a.
Speaker 3 (01:22:40):
Lawsuit with a company, in a civil lawsuit, not criminal,
in a civil lawsuit about a beef a rap disc
And so now it's forced loosing in grange and UMG
to respond to where loosing and grange? I feel like
he channeled jay Z and those Rock Nation press releases
(01:23:00):
that be coming out.
Speaker 9 (01:23:07):
Like Jay, we know you wrote because I'll be reading
them rock Nation Press, Spicy and Ship.
Speaker 3 (01:23:11):
Yeah, I'll be reading them press releases like like a
lawyer didn't see that, Like you did not wait jing
up before you sent this at a lawyer didn't see
this type this, send it to them and said put
this on the fucking rock Nation.
Speaker 6 (01:23:28):
Matter of fact, give me the log in, I'll put
it on the Rock Nation website myself. That's where we're at. Okay, So.
Speaker 3 (01:23:37):
Grange put out a declaration letter where he wrote claims
that I was behind the scheme to devalue Drake's brand
through the release of the promotion of the Kendrick Lamar
recording Not Like Us, an allegation that makes no sense
due to the fact that the company that I run,
Universal Music Group n V, has invested hundreds of millions
of dollars in Drake, including long standing and critical financial
(01:24:00):
support for his recording career, the purchase and ownership of
the bulk of his recording catalog, and the purchase.
Speaker 6 (01:24:05):
Of his music publishing rights. So now people are finding
out Drake and one of.
Speaker 3 (01:24:10):
Them three sixty deals, Well, he ain't making much money
thing Clinton like for like. Honestly, it just makes the
Kendrick Lamar this song is better because I remember when
Kendrick said, let's speak on percentages, and I'll double back
with you because you signed to a nigga that was
signed to a nigga that said they was signed to
that nigga, meaning you're giddy like your cut is so
(01:24:33):
small of your the money you're supposedly making, and I
guarantee you I'm making more than you. And now it's like, well,
now UMG's putting out these numbers, and it's like, oh,
I see what.
Speaker 6 (01:24:42):
Kendrick meant you. You aren't making the money you said.
Speaker 4 (01:24:44):
You know, that's why he consistently has to tour and
do all this shit, because he's like, I gotta make
that money.
Speaker 5 (01:24:49):
Yes, right, that's.
Speaker 4 (01:24:50):
Why he can't go away. Yeah, even if he wanted
to quote unquote leave, he couldn't.
Speaker 1 (01:24:55):
Right.
Speaker 3 (01:24:57):
Further, Grain said, it makes no sense whatsoever that he
was in the weeds as to the release and promotion
of any particular sound recording from thousands of UMG releases
throughout the world, as his job encompasses gold global strategy
at a publicly traded, multi billion dollar multinational corporation whose
operations in over sixty countries covering nearly two hundred markets,
(01:25:18):
Adding claiming otherwise is farcical, He ends the letter saying,
given my role, I am accustomed and unfortunately largely resigned
to personal tax and I further recognized that a frequent
strategy of UMG's litigation opponents is to attempt to waste
mine and UMG's time and resources with discovery of the
sort that Drake is seeking here, either in an attempt
(01:25:40):
to gain media attention or in an effort to force
some kind of commercial renegotiation or financial concessions. But given
Drake's motion, I would like to make it quite clear
that I had never heard the recording Not Like Us,
nor ever saw the corresponding cover art or music video
until after they were released by Interscope Records. Whilst, as
part of my role certainly have financial oversight and of
(01:26:02):
and responsibility for UMG's global businesses, the proposition that I
was involved in much less responsible for reviewing and approving
the content of Not Like Us is cover art or
music video, or for determining or directing the promotion of
those materials is groundless and indeed ridiculous.
Speaker 5 (01:26:19):
Oh this is white Man's speech you I don't have
enough for you.
Speaker 6 (01:26:21):
This is white Man's speech forget the fuck out of here.
Speaker 5 (01:26:24):
Yes it is very very like fuck out.
Speaker 6 (01:26:28):
Of here is what he basically said in White Man.
Speaker 4 (01:26:30):
You know it, and I bet you it was much
harsher than that. He actually had somebody go through and
kind of clean it up, and like bow.
Speaker 5 (01:26:36):
We can't say fuck him all right, I guess.
Speaker 6 (01:26:39):
Here's my favorite here's my favorite part.
Speaker 3 (01:26:42):
He had a separate letter from UMG's lawyers to the
Southern District of New York that they put out. Drake's
motion is a transparent attempt to use discovery to harass
UMG and force it to waste time and resources out
of spite. The premise of Drake's motion that he could
not have lost a rap battle unless it was a
product of some imagined secret conspiracy. Going to the top
(01:27:03):
of UMG's corporate structure is absurd. Sir Lucian Lucian Grange
is the CEO of a multinational enterprise. His days are
spent determining and implementing global strategy, not vetting individual tracks
or album covers, or driving the release of promotional plans
for any one recording. And even if Sir Lucian had
any responsive documents, they would certainly be captured by discovery
(01:27:25):
from UMG's other document custodians who were actually responsible for
releasing and promoting not like us, Drake does not come
close to meeting his burden of showing that Sir Lucian
must be a custodian. His motion should be denied. I've
never seen anyone go out like this, dog. I couldn't
have predicted this, Like I'm not a Drake hater by far,
(01:27:47):
Like when he's doing his thing, I just accepted that
as part of the rap rap industry. And I don't
mean that in a hateful well. I mean like their
songs from Drake where I'm like, yeah, I like that song.
You know it wasn't he To me, he was no
different than other artists, but the way he has gone
out and maybe other people are experiencing this too. I
(01:28:10):
can't even listen to his music right now, Like if
I'm gonna yeah, if I'm in the gym and like
a like I'm listening to a Spotify playlist and a
Drake song, come on, I'll skip.
Speaker 5 (01:28:20):
It me too, do that right?
Speaker 6 (01:28:22):
That's crazy?
Speaker 8 (01:28:23):
Yeah, I can't listen to take care of because he
already was a sad sack and now it's like, well,
you have no good people around you to give you
the truth. So is exactly definitely not gonna get no
girls now.
Speaker 3 (01:28:33):
And the braggadoches and the braggadoch's lines don't hit because
I know you the kind of nigga that sues people
when you lose, so like the whole like I'm the greatest,
I'm the best.
Speaker 6 (01:28:42):
I'm like, do you really believe that? Or do you
want to go to court?
Speaker 8 (01:28:47):
And it's also now like you know, it's already like
it used to be an open secret. Now it's just
open that he has all these ghostwriters and things like that.
Like so it's like, you know, it's compared to Kendrick,
and Kendrick's showing his versatility, how much of an artist,
how much of he's about the culture? Yeah, Drake, he's
better off just going straight to comedic con like actor route,
(01:29:08):
like where he can find an opportunity to make fun
of himself maybe and like rebuild his image that way
because he is a funny actor. Yeah, except but I think,
like you know, the hardcore rapping being in a pool
surrounded by guns and ship like bro, Yeah, it.
Speaker 3 (01:29:23):
Just it doesn't it doesn't do anything to beat the
not like Us allegations. That's his problem, right, Like everything
he's doing is stuff that makes the premise of not
Like Us just more and more valid, where it's like,
this is not hip hop, this is not how you
respond You're not the first big rapper.
Speaker 6 (01:29:44):
To lose a rap battle. Shit, you lost a rap
battle before.
Speaker 3 (01:29:48):
We'll push your tea so we like you could just
move on and we be okay.
Speaker 2 (01:29:55):
Not like us with such a blow to him.
Speaker 8 (01:29:58):
We forgot to push your tea out that he had.
Speaker 3 (01:30:02):
You are hiding a child like this man. Yes, this man,
this man.
Speaker 6 (01:30:09):
Already been here before.
Speaker 3 (01:30:11):
I am honestly at this point shocked that he didn't
just go back to just let me just pretend this
didn't happen, keep putting out music and help people just
let it go after a few years, because that's definitely
how he got through to push the t shit Now,
no pushing our biggest Kendrick, I get that, And of
course push.
Speaker 6 (01:30:30):
It wasn't doing the super Bowl to call your pedophile.
Speaker 3 (01:30:32):
I get that, But bruh, you had to just let it.
Speaker 6 (01:30:37):
You could have just let it go.
Speaker 2 (01:30:39):
What a?
Speaker 6 (01:30:40):
What a?
Speaker 3 (01:30:41):
Anyway, this is why Kendrick my favorite, because like, this
is the kind of a visceration I dream of when
I think of that when I want to pop off
on somebody, just the level of pop off I want
to do. I don't want to be like, oh, Roger
said something spicy, and I want people to be like
rod eviscerated that man's soul character and I will never
(01:31:01):
see that person again at the ride, expose them.
Speaker 6 (01:31:05):
That's how I want people to feel, which.
Speaker 3 (01:31:07):
Is why obviously try not to get in that point,
because that agrees it's a lot of work. And Uh,
if I'm gonna burn the bridge, I want to burn
it out all the way down both sides. Neither one
of us can cross it, you know, I want I
want it to be obvious. We don't fuck with each
other no more. This is this has become my dream
in Drake's Nightmare. But yeah, it's been amazing to watch.
Speaker 2 (01:31:26):
Love it.
Speaker 6 (01:31:28):
All right, let's do Guess the race and wrap this
thing up. Guys. All right, we've been having a lot of.
Speaker 5 (01:31:33):
Fun we have. I've been enjoying this.
Speaker 6 (01:31:36):
I always love when Brandon comes on.
Speaker 2 (01:31:38):
Here.
Speaker 6 (01:31:38):
Here's some Guess the race intro music.
Speaker 2 (01:31:48):
It's hard to catch the race. It's time, It's time
to catch the race.
Speaker 6 (01:31:56):
It's time, all right, guess the race.
Speaker 3 (01:31:59):
Time we go around the globe, find different articles, guess
the race of the people involved, and uh, the chat
room plays and SODA's Karen and Brandon. Uh, and everybody's racist.
All right, let's start with this one. DJ Tray's will
Will's of steel for bars of iron. Responding to an
(01:32:21):
indecent exposure complaint, police found Anthony Smith, thirty two, walking
around a Florida park Thursday afternoon, wearing women's lingerie, the
bottoms of which were of the throng variety and of
the throng variety, and left Smith's genitals fully exposed.
Speaker 10 (01:32:37):
The thongs and yeah thong fake breast yeah fake, a
wig of long black hair, a black mask around his face,
a penis ring that is used for arousal purposes as
well as to maintain erections, a black foxtail protruding from
(01:33:00):
his posterior.
Speaker 3 (01:33:01):
Upon further examination, the bushytail turned out to be attached
to a recto plug that was inserted his anus.
Speaker 5 (01:33:09):
Yeah that that makes sense.
Speaker 3 (01:33:10):
Smith, who works as a party slash wedding DJ okay,
he allegedly tried to evade a cop who initially discovered
him inside of an Indian riverside park in Just Beach.
He was eventually apprehended near the Children's Museum of the
Treasure Cast. The witnesses who down nine want one to
report a suspicious individual with his sexual organs exposed, was
(01:33:32):
in the park to pick up their kids from a
summer camp at the museum.
Speaker 4 (01:33:35):
Oh no, right do it is somewhere in the privacy
where everybody consents that none of them consented to this.
Speaker 3 (01:33:46):
I'm gonna tell you what as the race already as
a parent, that's not what you want to see.
Speaker 6 (01:33:50):
No, as a parent, when you pick up your little one,
that's not what you want to see.
Speaker 4 (01:33:55):
Y'all walking out go, oh, my gosh, what is happening?
And my man, WI their furry here.
Speaker 3 (01:33:59):
I'm confiued that parent did say no children witnessed the
event as by police what was going on today? Smith
reportedly said he suffers from some sort of sexual addiction
and then engaging in lou behavior arouses him. He added
that this was not the first time he had to
run in with law enforcement for the same kind of behavior.
Speaker 6 (01:34:14):
Why would he say that?
Speaker 2 (01:34:16):
Why would you too?
Speaker 4 (01:34:18):
Maybe it's part of the kink, But there's too many
people that's into that kink that aren't out here publicly
being arrest But that's the thing.
Speaker 3 (01:34:25):
Maybe part of the kink for him is the shame
of being in public and being oh Okay.
Speaker 6 (01:34:30):
He was convicted of bad boy right, Oh, maybe you
need to put the cuffs on me and punish me.
Speaker 4 (01:34:36):
Officer be like, yeah, there's no role play for us.
You are really under rest. His Miranda Rights Smith.
Speaker 3 (01:34:44):
Was convicted in twenty seventeen of indecent exposure and resisting
arrest after Your Spot of naked and pleasuring himself in public.
In post arrest comments, he reported that he does this
because pornographic materials do not suffice his sexual desires, and
that that he does not want to violate his morals
by having sexual relations before man or by using a
female solely for sexual pleasures or purposes. So basically, it's
(01:35:05):
kind of what Brandon was saying about how people not
their sexual repression got them acting out, okay, instead of
just trust trust me for the honestly, for the good
of the world, we'd all rather you were having sex.
Speaker 6 (01:35:18):
If it's gonna keep you from yes, please, he will sit.
Speaker 2 (01:35:22):
That kind of addition, like you need mental health like support.
Speaker 3 (01:35:27):
Yeah, but if you're if you're saying I'm doing this
because I don't want to have sex before marriage, go ahead.
Speaker 6 (01:35:33):
Have sex before marriage.
Speaker 2 (01:35:34):
Player.
Speaker 6 (01:35:34):
It's fine. We're not gonna judge you.
Speaker 5 (01:35:37):
I'd rather you're doing that than even even.
Speaker 6 (01:35:39):
Jesus and God are like, you should definitely go have
some sex.
Speaker 5 (01:35:42):
Then gallivanting in front of the kids. What's happening.
Speaker 3 (01:35:44):
I guarantee the shit you're doing is also a said,
so like, if it's some Jesus shit, just letting you know,
you might as well just have the sex.
Speaker 6 (01:35:51):

Speaker 3 (01:36:41):
Wills or Steeles was what they call the the turntable
or iron bar.
Speaker 4 (01:36:46):
Okay, okay, I'm gonna go white. I thought you name.
I thought you meant his name was Wills of Steeles.
Speaker 6 (01:36:50):
No, no, no, what about you, Brandon?
Speaker 8 (01:36:53):
Yeah, I'll go with you can still be free out
of these streets, even though you were on multiple lists that.
I'd be very surprised if it's not way because the
fact that he's had multiple charges with this ship, right,
that's crazy.
Speaker 6 (01:37:08):
I told the cops it that's they have to look
it up. They're like, oh, man, I.
Speaker 3 (01:37:11):
Do this all the time. All right, let's see what
the chat room believes. Lock his ass up, throw way

Speaker 5 (01:38:19):
Okay, it goes down to the docks.
Speaker 3 (01:38:22):
Shout out to those cops getting a little more progressive

Everybody's O for one so far.
Speaker 2 (01:38:31):
Yeah that ultimate plus Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:38:37):
Suspect in hard rock jackpot A Bush, was arrested one
month prior for falling asleep in a Taco bell drive
through Okay. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judge spoke on the
arrest of a Lakeland man for robbing and shooting a
couple following their jackpot win at a hard rock casino.
The man had previously been arrested in Polk County. One
(01:38:59):
of the two suspec arrested for ambushing Robin and shooting
a couple after they hit a jackpot at a table
casino made headlines a month earlier for his arrest in
Pope County. Marcus Jenkins and Tristan Wright were arrested at
the Authorities say they followed a Riverview couple home to
rob and shoot them after they won big at the
Seminole Hard Rock Casino Hotel and Casino. The door bell
(01:39:23):
camera for this showed the heroy moment where val Dela
Cruz and Kim Chamberliss were ambushed by two suspects after
a dream night at the casino turned into a nightmare.
Speaker 6 (01:39:34):
One of the two suspects.
Speaker 3 (01:39:35):
Though Jenkins made headlines for unusual arrest a month prior,
He was arrested July sixth, where they found him asleep
behind a wheel and a car at Taco Bell Drive through.
Speaker 5 (01:39:47):
Everybody blowing behind them. They're like, hey, well, happen to the.
Speaker 3 (01:39:49):
Line sometimes that fourth meal that makes you need a
little nap. DeBie said he smelled of alcohol and they
found cannabis and more than twenty eight a fitting neil
in the car.
Speaker 6 (01:40:02):
Oh he was charged with them.
Speaker 3 (01:40:05):
He was charged with the plethora of charges, including trafficking.
Would you like to upsize that way.
Speaker 2 (01:40:15):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (01:40:16):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (01:40:17):
He was charged with the plethora of.
Speaker 3 (01:40:18):
Charges, including trafficking and fitting til resistant arrest d UI others.
He posted a twenty five thousand dollars bond, though maybe
that's why he's like, man, I gotta get more money
for bond. For bond money. They addressed the situation he
needs to be sent to prison for the rest of
his life, but he had a right to bond.
Speaker 6 (01:40:38):
He posted a bond.
Speaker 3 (01:40:39):
Quite frankly, if I had my way, everybody at a
criminal history such as that this that had a bond
would wear an ankle monitor, said the cops. If he
had on the ankle monitor, I doubt that he'd have
hung out at the hard Rock and followed someone home
and shot them.
Speaker 6 (01:40:51):
Sheriff just said Jingis had.
Speaker 3 (01:40:53):
Fifty three previous conviction felony chargers at eighteen previous misdemeanor chargers,
and he had been to state prison five times.
Speaker 6 (01:41:00):
Guess the race of Marcus Jenkins black? Karen saying black.
Speaker 5 (01:41:06):
If there's a white Marcus Jenkins, I don't know what say.
Speaker 8 (01:41:11):
Yeah, I want I want to go black, but also
I don't think black people with fetal bull What do
I know?
Speaker 5 (01:41:16):
Yeah, black people in everything.
Speaker 3 (01:41:18):
They did charge them with trafficking fitting on. So maybe
he's solid. Maybe I don't know. Chat Room says he
ordered the number seventeen and got an eighth black tempra
white black negro doing his financial plan.
Speaker 6 (01:41:32):
The correct answer is, oh wait, that's some more hold
on career, Ninja finanel lace with crack cocaine. Black Jenkins
is black? Is a black? The correct answer is black. Okay,
y'all got it. Okay, let me show y'all.
Speaker 5 (01:41:46):
Right my racist and bar I ain't off no more.
Speaker 3 (01:41:50):
His codefending is there too? Some of you did say
white and you missed it. I think y'all said white
because y'all was from the first.
Speaker 5 (01:42:00):
One, right, that first one.
Speaker 6 (01:42:03):
Yeah, this one.

Speaker 8 (01:42:09):
Yeah, those seems like brothers to be in the in
the tackle. Bell just knock the fuck out.
Speaker 3 (01:42:15):
All right, Let's go to the bonus round where everything's
gonna be worth triple the points.
Speaker 1 (01:42:21):
Protection triple, the points triple, the points triplets triple, the
points trip triple ring points trip, points trip trip triple,
the points trip triple, points triple, the points trip.
Speaker 2 (01:42:35):
Triple the points trip trip Points.
Speaker 3 (01:42:40):
Woman calls police on homeless man walking his newborn turns
out it's her neighbor. Chapman Hamburg is an artist and
a father of four, living and working at Huntington Beach, California.
Speaker 6 (01:42:55):
The thirty three year old is often.
Speaker 3 (01:42:56):
Found painting and sculpting in his backyard studio or surfing
the waves near home. His favorite pastime, however, is spending
quality time with the family. Since welcoming to newborn only
a month ago, his routine involves daily walks around the
neighborhood and attempt to sue his daughter and give his
wife some time to relax. However, he never expected to
have the police call.
Speaker 6 (01:43:15):
On him for looking homeless.
Speaker 3 (01:43:18):
Him and his family live in a quiet beach side
neighborhood on the street located between the middle and the
high school, but looking to a good amount of foot
traffic or leading to a good amount of foot traffic.
One early morning, the artist was walking his newborn daughter
as he often does, and then he said, she's in
the fussy new born stage, so I took online of
walks or we're her in the baby carrier. I go
(01:43:40):
out often in the middle of the night, like all
times of the day, and multiple times a day. It's
kind of like a routine to give my wife some rest. However,
his routine was interrupted when he was taking the second
walk of the morning and his person called the police
on him. It was his oldest son to point it
out the police car parked right in front of their house.
(01:44:02):
At first, he wanted this someone that called the cops
on his family, though he wasn't sure why.
Speaker 6 (01:44:06):
He and the officer met halfway down his lawn exchange
confused looks.
Speaker 3 (01:44:09):
He was very friendly and kind, so I wasn't on
guard already, kind of had a hint that there must
have been some sort of miscommunication. The officer revealed that
someone had reported a homeless person with a baby and
found that address after.
Speaker 6 (01:44:21):
Following Hamburg home.
Speaker 3 (01:44:23):
Hamburg, with his daughter still on his chest, was shocked
in a bit embarrassed. The officer explained that a neighbor
was concerned about what they saw and asked him to
provide a former identification. He immediately went inside to look
for his wallet and tell his wife what was happened.
That Hannah was in disbelief and decided to come outside
for support. I was like shaking, and you can hear
it in my voice. My voice is just like all
over the place. She recalls, I'm.
Speaker 6 (01:44:44):
In my own home, I'm in my own neighborhood with
my own baby. It's just wow that that could happen.
It's kind of crazy.
Speaker 3 (01:44:50):
Nevertheless, after providing his id, Hamburg, his wife, and the
officer are seen laughing off the situation in a viral video.
I think it helped that he was just really friendly
and really kind. Hamburg admits if if it had been
someone that was maybe was more suspicious and you know,
it was a bit more aggressive and intense, for sure,
that would have been a different interaction.
Speaker 6 (01:45:12):
See.
Speaker 3 (01:45:12):
Hamburg's dad was a firefighter, so growing up he was
taught to always be polite and cooperative with police. But
after sharing experience online, some people commented that the situation
could have played out differently.
Speaker 6 (01:45:23):
That's some other factors have been in play.
Speaker 3 (01:45:25):
Others pointed out the privilege and being able to laugh
at out. He said, it's interesting to reflect on all that.
There's just so much that of that in our culture
right now. All right, guess the race of mister Chapman Hamburg.
Speaker 6 (01:45:40):
White going to.
Speaker 11 (01:45:41):

Speaker 2 (01:47:06):

Speaker 6 (01:47:16):
Is is like why didn't I think of this? He's
like why how do I get Gwynneth Paltrow.
Speaker 5 (01:47:23):
And quirks per second would have been super high.
Speaker 3 (01:47:26):
Yeah, yes, yes, she took the words out of my mouth.
So this is a picture of the family. He reveals
he cuts his own hair and never.
Speaker 6 (01:47:36):
Goes to a barber. Can we can tell lots of privilege,
lots of privilege.

Painting weird of course things. Okay, lots of nudity going
on in that house. Here's him presenting he is an
artist with his own institute called the Hamburg Academy of Art,
which I don't know if that's accredited or just he
just like went to the sea and painted and it was
(01:48:12):
like this my academy.
Speaker 6 (01:48:14):
No, he had missed.
Speaker 3 (01:48:16):
An apology from his neighbor would have been nice. But
he's choosing to have a positive outlook on the situation.
Thinking of sending a woman a letter thanking her for
being vigilant, I would like to use that as opportunity
to get to know my neighbor and be thankful that
she's looking out for our kids. Of the neighborhood, he said,
rather than you know, turning into a divisive thing. Yeah,
the dog whistling at the end was so good because,
like people obviously online pointed out, if he was black,
(01:48:38):
this shit would have went wade left, and he's like, listen,
I'm just happy to be able to say, like, we're
not in a divide of society right now. And I
was taught to respect police and not be aggressive.
Speaker 8 (01:48:51):
But that's what's so confused about the first one, right,
because we think about that scenario, like black ben usually
don't farewell with anything that's there, and he's been.
Speaker 5 (01:48:59):
Arrested multiple times for that.
Speaker 6 (01:49:01):
Dude, y'all can't even get over the first one. I
love it.
Speaker 3 (01:49:04):
That's my favorite part against the race. We've been moved on,
and y'all like, but the reason I'm right, the wheels.
Speaker 5 (01:49:11):
Are still what's happening here?
Speaker 3 (01:49:12):
What police is letting a naked sex offend to go
multiple times multiple time?
Speaker 6 (01:49:20):
Right, Samuel, Right, there's nothing cool about.
Speaker 3 (01:49:25):
This all right, last last thing sword ratchetness, and then
we'll officially in this.
