and Jones on the Volume podcast Network. It is Thursday,
April fourth, and We've got a bunch of fun stuff
to talk to you about today. We're talking college basketball,
We're talking NBA MVP race. We're talking about whether or

(01:38):
not John is serious about wearing jeords and.

Speaker 5 (01:44):
We'll get to it. We'll get to it. This is
the teaser. Sorry, sorry, sorry man.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
As always, Jenkison Jones is the official podcast of Lollygagging
and we are hosted by Dragonfly Jones aka.

Speaker 6 (01:55):
Tyler Hey, Everybody on the Gun.

Jethro Jenkins aka John was aunt Bulas, I'm GUARDI b a.

Speaker 5 (02:02):
Ka mic mother mother fucking mic.

Speaker 4 (02:08):
Coming toy live from Palm Springs. So We're produced as
always by the lovely and talented Jackson Stephone. Why Why
I think Palm Springs might be the place that looks
most like what you think like. It looks most like
the picture of itself that's put out there, you know
what I mean. Yes, like everywhere you look in Palm Springs,

(02:31):
you're like, oh, that looks like Palm Springs is fun.

Speaker 5 (02:37):
I don't know, it's crazy. It all makes sense, you
know what I mean? It makes it all right.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Before we get going, I just have to offer myself
up to this. We've been dealing with a fucked up
group chat situation for like the last month and a half,
as it turns out, and I realized as we were
just trying to solve it, the deal was I've not
been getting the group chat text on my phone. I've
only been getting them on my computer. I went back
and realized when it started, and I realized what happened

(03:06):
is is when I blocked the group chat during the
Super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (03:13):
Oh my god, so you were being a pussy.

Speaker 7 (03:23):
Oh shit, that's crazy.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
I get it. I get it, I get it. I
get it. That's a good reason. That was a good reason.
That sucked.

Speaker 4 (03:30):
It was more of a ceremonial, like you know what
I mean, Like I blocked a lot of things, but
that's the only one that didn't successfully unblock, apparently, and
I even checked to make sure that it wasn't blocked.

Speaker 5 (03:39):
So I have no idea. I have no idea, But anyway,
I apologize for the tech. You know it's been fickled
though you can't play with the group chet. You know
what I mean, right, A little fickle, you know what
I mean? Where at times I don't get text? You
know what I mean? So Jackson has happened to you
yet I don't know.

Speaker 7 (03:57):
Probably, Okay. I like the I like the I like
the word fickle.

Speaker 1 (04:03):
I will say I do a f I do not
that often, but not insignificant amount of times.

Speaker 6 (04:09):
I will.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
I don't do a full block, but I'll just like
hit the mute and turn off turn off notifications. Because
sometimes for everyone, for the listeners, here's a keel behind
the curtain. Sometimes it's like eleven thirty PM and these
lovely gentlemen decide to like have.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
A what are you about to five.

Speaker 7 (04:28):
Hundred text message conversation.

Speaker 5 (04:31):
I wasn't gonna say that fiveext message conversation.

Speaker 1 (04:36):
I'm like, I gotta go to bed. I gotta like
turn my brain off a little bit. And so I
just put it on mute, and then I wake up
and there's hundreds of text messages that I've missed about,
like what is a better shoe to go off on
the wrong foot or something insanely like nonsensical, like you
guys spent three hours talking about this, like yep, exactly,

(04:57):
oh yeah, of course we did.

Speaker 5 (05:01):
You've jumping by Sometimes he laid in, bro.

Speaker 4 (05:06):
Just go in and here's seventy clips of my son
playing baseball.

Speaker 5 (05:11):
And he going crazy. They'd be heaters too. I'll be
rewinding him like this shit dropped off a table curveballs.

Speaker 4 (05:23):
Let's talk about the NCAA Women's basketball Elie eight more
than living up to the hype, especially obviously, Iowa LSU
over twelve million viewers for this game, and I would
struggle to remember, the more exciting you are for a
sporting event, the more of a disappointment is usually going
to be. And this was an unbelievable basketball game from

(05:45):
start to finish.

Speaker 5 (05:47):
What did you guys think? And uh and and how bummed.

Speaker 4 (05:51):
Were you that LSU lost the lost the race war
in this particular skirmish.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
I think I think we lost the race war in
the day period. I think we just you know, we
have to regroup and figure it out. We took some
alsg but you know, both of me solid though. Kaitlyn
cool as fuck, you know what I mean. We fuck
with Kaitlin anyway.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
Yeah, yeah, it's you know, like like I mentioned, I
I wanted LSU to win, but I told you Caitlyn
was gonna go crazy. Caitlyn was gonna leave it all
out there. You knew that she was gonna empty that
motherfucking clipman she was. She put up what twenty three
pointers like she was going hard, bro, you know what
I'm saying. Like she you could tell that that, you know,
that was what she had been waiting for. That was

(06:32):
the dream matchup she wanted. She wanted to get her revenge,
and she got that shit, bro. And like I said,
I predicted the forty ball. And I'm not saying that
to pat myself on the back. I'm just saying that
as like a testament to Caitlyn. She is a killer.
She is cut from that cloth that, like all the greats,
hold grudges, bro, you know what I'm saying, And she
for sure is a grudgeholder.

Speaker 6 (06:49):
She's cut from that.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
And I took that personally Cloth you know what I'm saying,
just put on an all time great performance, and you
know her and Angelies, I think we're gonna look at
back at them and the robbery that they had as
the moment where college hoops really took off right like
they're you know, like in the post game, well in
the pregame, someone you know asked angel Reese, you know,
have you heard the comparisons of you being you and
Caitlyn being like, you know, the magic and bird of

(07:11):
women's college hoops. And I think that's an apt comparison
because I think that, like I said, when we look
back at the golden age that college hoops is in
right now, where it's you know, it's the most it's
the most popular it's ever been. We've got all these
all time great talents who are there right now. I
think we're gonna look back at that rivalry, that IOWA
LC rivalry is the moment where it all kicked off.

Speaker 5 (07:30):
The only thing I wish is that Aurisi and fucker
ankle up.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
I mean, she could barely jump for like more than
half of that game, you know, still got twenty rebounds.

Speaker 5 (07:37):
She gave it everything she had.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
You feel me, But I don't know if it necessarily
would have changed the outcome.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
Caitlyn is just She's Caitlyn bro you know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
She shot that one to three from damn near hot,
like from the like the like the like damnar half court.
It was like it was like the logo three, you
know what I'm saying. And it was like they were
already up eight. You know, you could get a you
can get an easy shot, get the double double, you
know did She was like, I want to bring the
roof off this motherfucker. I want to blow this game
completely up. Yes, that was definitely a Venger's game, and

(08:07):
she showed the fuck up. Man, she's such a hooper.
But yeah, no I don't I don't want to take
anything from Angerie either. She was balling like a motherfucker
in the first quarter, grabbed the game.

Speaker 5 (08:15):
I wonder, like how it feels that have that much.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
Power when you're playing against Kaitlyn Park, a better team
than Iowa. Grab the game by your hands and completely
reverse the fucking momentum, you know.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
What I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
Then she hearts t ankle and you know, and then
she's you know, kind of hobbling for the rest of
the game.

Speaker 5 (08:30):
But yeah, it was. It was an incredible, incredible experience.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
Man, that exactly what I was looking for.

Speaker 4 (08:38):
Yeah, yeah, I think in order for the result to
have been different, I think Kim Moki would have had
to have switched the defensive strategy up a little bit earlier.
Like as as great as any of Reesa's. It's like
she had Haley Van lift out there like just I mean,
eyes doubled.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
Inside and she saw Hale d you know what I.

Speaker 4 (08:58):
Mean, well with no help on the screen too, you
know what I mean? Like it was it was confusing.
I literally had a friend text me, do you think
Kim Moki is like taking one for the sport here,
like like women's basketball, because it was such a mystifying
defensive decision.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
Under the screen, under under Kaitlyn's screens. At first, I
was like, what what, why? Why are you giving her
the three? Like that was ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (09:23):
We were like in the group chat. I was like,
who was guarding her last year? You know what I'm saying? Like,
you know it was fla j wasn't it Like.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Why wouldn't you put the lengthy athletic defender on her
and have Hailey on her this doesn't make any sense,
and like halfway them like this is not working. And
we were talking about how you know, Haley might have
been you know, on the other side she were questioning
her allegiance.

Speaker 5 (09:43):
I was like, I was thinking the same thing that
Mike just said. I was thinking, No, that's that might
be Kim. You know what I'm saying. She she has
the record that so I don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
Man still hasn't told us where she was on January sixth.
I'm just putting out we got questions.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
So hey, brother, one thing I wanted to talk about,
because you know, we've talked about obviously the like that,
you know, we've had a lot of fun joking about
the race war stuff and and but also correctly talking
about like this is these are the kinds of rivalries
and storylines that do capture the country's attention to where
you get twelve million people watching an elite a game.
But I thought Angel Reese spoke really eloquently about how

(10:23):
unpleasant it is to be on the inside of you know,
some of that some of that attention, and obviously people
have responded to her very thoughtful comments in a very
stupid way, which is pretty predictable, but she just announced
right before we started recording she's going pro. So is
now going to be up to the WNBA to figure
out if they can do what the NBA did and

(10:44):
capture that attention and bring it up to their professional level,
because you've got a couple of ready made stars right
now in Caitlin Clark and Andrew Reese who are coming
your way, and as we've talked to her, we don't need
to go into it again. We talked about in previous
episodes that rookie pay is like first year teacher.

Speaker 5 (10:57):
Pay in California.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
Bro, I mean, it's you know, they're going to have
to figure out how to modernize their league if they
want to bring it forward, because otherwise you're Juju Watkins
looking at Okay, what's the next two years at USC
versus the next two years in the w n B
A that you know, you're making the math easier for
people to stay in college. But what did you think
of Angel Reese's comments and you know, kind of the

(11:20):
way she's carried herself through through you know, the aftermath
of that game.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
I guess, I mean, I was, I was, you know,
it was it was mixed emotions watching watching those comments
from Angel, Like, you know, there was a part of
me that was very impressed that she took that moment
to speak on something very real like that, you know,
and say, and then those part of.

Speaker 6 (11:37):
Me that you know, felt terrible for all the ship
that she was going through two right, but you know it's.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
You know, the ship that she mentioned going through, and
and you know, for what it's worth, like Angel Reese,
she really only talks shit like on the basketball court, right,
Like she's not someone who who's out there, right, yeah, yeah,
And she she's not someone about here is run a
while on social media, you know, you know, to talking
shit and all that. She just talked shit on the
court and she has been like villainized for that. And

(12:07):
of course, and I don't think you can, like, you know,
I don't think there's any way to separate race here.
I think that you know, black people, especially you know,
in this case of black woman who talks shit, she's
going she's not going to be you know, endeared and
and appreciated about a lot of People's going to be
the complete opposite. Whereas Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn's a shit talker too, right, Like,
let's not get it fucked up. Kaitlyn is a huge
shit talker, right, Like, like she bounced you and she

(12:28):
about South Carolina last year, was talking all that shit
and Angel Reason was hitting her with the ship that
Caitlyn hit people with, right Yeah, so's it's just you know,
like I said, I was really impressed with how she
was able to vocalize that and how she you know,
had a very real conversation with us, And like I said,
it was a part of me that just hated that
she had to go through that too.

Speaker 5 (12:50):
I mean, we know what she was going through. Man,
we know she was going through that.

Speaker 2 (12:53):
You know, you can't the reasons why we love her
is the reasons why people hate her, you know what
I mean? The reason why you know a lot of
black girls look at her and see themselves are reasons
why people she was getting death threats, you know what
I mean? Like I feel like in a world where
the world that hates black people, a world that hates women,
being a black woman in that world, I couldn't imagine

(13:14):
how what she was going through. And it's particularly as
a black woman that loves being a black woman. People
hold a certain amount of vitriol for them talking for
the Angel reces of the world, you know what I mean. So, yeah,
she spoke to that, and then we have people online
talking shit about that. You feel me, I mean, I
think and also I think this too.

Speaker 6 (13:32):
Man.

Speaker 5 (13:33):
You know, the same type of passion she.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
Brings to the game when she's winning, and you know,
when she's you know, playing, that passion goes somewhere and
that sometimes that comes out as crying and emotions after
we lose, you feel me. You know we saw that
with Juju. She's just not villainizing the same way Angel
is villainized. Because Juju is out. You know, she hasn't
been talking shit in the way Angel has, you know
what I mean. But I just think or just hasn't

(13:55):
been as boisterous, you know what I'm saying why Angel has.
But we've seen like like you said, you said, we
saw Caitlyn and Angel, the two at the top of
the game, you feel me, and they both have been
ship talkers and one person been villainized and we and
we can't ignore.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
But we all know why. But uh, I'm glad she
spoke to it. To it.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
I hate that she doesn't get you know, like the
people supporting her in the way that she should after
after speaking. So I look, only something so difficult and
she's so young dealing with this too, but like death threats,
like come on, man, you know, like I just can't
imagine dealing with that. But and this is why I
can't root against her, You feel me like, this is why,

(14:33):
because what she stands for and how she's moved it,
you know, with these situations, with in this situation. But yeah, man,
I you know, I'm glad she spoke to it, but
you know, it just it just makes me extremely sad
as somebody of her age just for being a fucking
hooper and doing shit that hoopers do, which is talking

(14:53):
ship on the basketball court.

Speaker 5 (14:55):
How she's been treated, it's insane sick for sure.

Speaker 4 (15:00):
We also got a great game in uh the University
of Southern California and Yukon Juju Watkins, not quite enough
to overcome the Yukon machine. So we've got the final
four coming up on Friday, South Carolina and CSU and
Iowa Yukon.

Speaker 5 (15:18):
Your guys thoughts on those.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
Games and are we headed for the inevitable South Carolina
defeating all the storylines Like we talked about last.

Speaker 2 (15:27):
Week, they shall avenge us South.

Speaker 5 (15:32):
Yeah, yeah, I'm.

Speaker 6 (15:38):
Yeah, I do that.

Speaker 3 (15:39):
I do think South Carolina wins it all. Like like
I said, Juju was my heart pick. I just wanted
to see the all time great freshman having an all
time great run. I knew that, you know, she was
going to run into a bus all either with Yukon
or with you know, Iowa Lsu. So I didn't believe
she was gonna pull it off. But you know, hats
off to her great fucking season, you know. But but
you know, Yukon just they were on her assay game, bro,

(16:00):
Like the schemes that they were throwing at her, like
they were, you know, trapping her like like soon as
she crossed half court like they were like, bro, your
teammates are gonna have to beat that's not you.

Speaker 6 (16:09):
And and you know there was no thing she could
really do.

Speaker 5 (16:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:12):
So so yeah, you know, like like I said, I
Juju was my heart pick, South Carolina has been my
head picked.

Speaker 6 (16:17):
And I do think South Carolina's gonna win it all.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
Yeah, I think South Carolina's gonna win it all.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
I feel like I wouldn't I hate saying this, I
wouldn't be mad if Caitlin won it all. Yeah, you
know what I'm saying, I wouldn't be mad if she
you know, if she came back and you know the
way she's played all year, pull it off, I wouldn't
be mad at it. You know, I want South Carolina
to win, but I wouldn't be mad at that.

Speaker 5 (16:40):
But yeah, see and Juju go out. I mean I
hated it.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
I mean, like they as as much shit we talk
about Geno. He came with a great scheme, you know
what I'm saying, And I mean he made it hard
as fuck for her. She still got buckets. We made
as hard as anybody has made it on her. And
let's not take anything from Page Page is fucking hooper.
She stepped the fuck up, went crazy. You feel me
doing Page shit. So yeah, she's and like we talked

(17:02):
like the race war Page is not. We ain't talking
about Page brother.

Speaker 5 (17:08):
With us. Bro.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
We ain't got to draft her bro side, you feel me,
you know what I mean?

Speaker 5 (17:13):
So yeah, she a real one, So I'm not.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
I mean, great basketball that night, just the game itself won.
You know it was big women's basketball, but it was
just good basketball.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
Man. I just loved watching it.

Speaker 2 (17:22):
So yeah, hey, hey, juju glad to go out like that,
But you know, yeah, I mean, great game either way.

Speaker 4 (17:30):
I mean I'll be I'll be rooting super hard for
Kaylyn Clark against Yukon for sure, and I'll enjoy the
opportunity to just root super hard for Iowa because they're
a really fun team. So that I'm I'm I'm looking
forward to that for sure. But I think Gino did
what kim Oki didn't do. He successfully said I'm not
gonna let the best player on the floor, or their
best player at least, dictate the game. Like like you said,

(17:53):
she's still going to score. She's still going to score,
but we're not gonna make it easy on her. We're
not going to let her decide to do whatever she
wants to do. And that I mean as a head coach,
that has to be job number one when you're playing
against a true star.

Speaker 5 (18:03):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
If you saw like him post game, she was talking
about Caitlyn like she's unstoppable, So maybe she took it like, hey,
Caitlyn's unstoppable, let's try to stop the rest of the team. Well,
didn't two other players get twenty points? What the fuck
was kim doing?

Speaker 5 (18:21):
In the days leading up to play the squad.

Speaker 2 (18:25):
You know, she didn't give her team, you know, barely
gave her team a chance, you feel me?

Speaker 8 (18:28):
So anyway, all right, I think I was frozen. Okay, okay,
all right.

Speaker 4 (18:40):
The other crazy thing that I just have to touch
on briefly because I like truly could not believe it
was did you see that the three point lines were
the wrong? We're not the same size, not the same
distance in the Portland Elite eight?

Speaker 5 (18:55):
No, I did see that? Was that was crazy?

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Bro?

Speaker 6 (18:58):
Yeah, yeah, that is it?

Speaker 5 (19:00):
It was like nine it or no? Oh wow? So
that was like a fucking high school game shot.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
It was like not quite at the intersecting with the
top of the key, like a high school game, but
it was like in between it was it was the
old women's line. I believe they changed it a few
years ago, and so one side was shorter than the
other and they just agreed to play, which like, because
they swapped its quarters, they're gonna have they're both going
to play on the sides eventually, but.

Speaker 7 (19:26):
Still such a bizarre.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
Like I can't imagine that happening in an actual important
never had a regular any game in college, a.

Speaker 7 (19:34):
Big business basketball game, very important game.

Speaker 5 (19:38):
Yeah, who was in control of that? Like what like
how does that? How does that happen?

Speaker 7 (19:44):
I guess it's just the arenas, like construction staff, like
whoever builds the courts. I don't know. They were able
to fix it.

Speaker 5 (19:51):
Grab the wrong pieces.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
I don't know, and then they fixed it for that
for because there's the Elite game was in the same location,
so they had to fix it between the rounds and
so it was fixed for the last game.

Speaker 7 (20:02):
But it's it's.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
Something that I don't I don't know, Like I feel
like this wouldn't happen in a men's game, right, Like no,
like like it's it's wrong, it's not right that, like
there's not enough care going into the women's game that
if the if the three point line was the wrong
distance in the men's Final four or in an NBA game,
like there would be an uproar about untenable, untenable situation,

(20:29):
and this one, like the girls made the most of
they have to just play, I guess, but like.

Speaker 7 (20:34):
That's a very strange situation.

Speaker 4 (20:36):
Is visibly different to John, I just sent you the video,
but like if you're just sitting in the stands, you
can see that one side is a completely different three
point line in the other side.

Speaker 5 (20:46):
Like that's part of what's so crazy about it.

Speaker 4 (20:48):
It's not like, uh oh, they measured the rim and
it's nine foot eleven and a half inches or something,
you know what I mean.

Speaker 5 (20:53):
It's a like, wait, what the fuck?

Speaker 4 (20:55):
Like, you know, everyone's sitting in the stands is realizing
what's happening. So let's talk NBA MVP odds. This is
sort of gone the way it's gone the last two years.
A lot of interesting conversation building right up to Jokic
as by far the betting favorite to win NBA MVP
for a third time, with Luca as sort of the

(21:17):
only person really, you know, favored to still be in
the race at all, and SGA kind of a distant third.
What do you guys think about this? And are you
prepared for the back to back to back Jokic MVPs?

Speaker 5 (21:30):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (21:30):
Yeah, I mean, you know, it was looking like this
season was going to be embiids you know, for the taking,
until that injury, and but but yok has just been phenomenal. Like,
you know, we're not an anti Jokic pod, Like I
don't mind him running it up with the MVPs. He's
an all time great, you know what I'm saying, and
and and the resumes should reflect that. So yeah, I
mean I honestly thought that SGA might have had a

(21:51):
shot this year, but he too. Yeah, I really thought
SGA had a shot. But but Yogic has just like
separated himself and just as remind everyone he's the best
basketball player in the world right now.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
I mean I was hoping SGA, you know what I mean,
with like averaging thirty a game, that team is maybe
a playing team without him, you know what I'm saying, Like,
you know, they might, they might get relegated to the
DC League.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
What I am, they got to speak out a team.
But he is the hardest souled a squad, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
And the fact that he's had what they're their first
in the West right now, maybe first second maybe you know,
I mean for a second the West right now, Like what.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
He's donna change between recording Yeah, yeah, yeah, we don't know.

Speaker 5 (22:26):
Yeah, we're so close.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
Yeah, but yeah, so I mean I was I was
hoping SGA had a real real shot, But.

Speaker 5 (22:32):
You know, it's just a man. Doug is his league
he's the best player in the league. I get it,
you know what I mean? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (22:38):
Uh, A humble request from a Lakers fan. Could anyone
in the Western Conference ever lose a fucking game, it
would be great. The Lakers are twenty and ten over
the last thirty and are just sitting in the nine
seed because no one will lose a fucking game. They
would be the sixth seed in the East at the
time we're recording with the record that they have, uh,
and they're just still at the n and Brons playing

(23:01):
unbelievably his last two games. I think he's missed four
shots and scored sixty three points or something. Yeah, it
just feels like, I don't know, maybe this is what
we're headed for, but I would really appreciate it.

Speaker 5 (23:15):
If, like the Kings just wanted to lose a game.

Speaker 6 (23:17):
Ever, that would be a great I'd appreciate it. Help
your boys out.

Speaker 5 (23:20):
Please.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
The fucking Warriors done figured it out again. We thought
they might have been done.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
As someone who's locked into the Warriors games as a
professional obligation, the Warriors fans feel the same way. Can
like someone freaking lose the Warriors losey straight reel off
five in a row and make up no ground.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
Yeah, it's crazy. I will say this. I don't know
that I've ever been more excited for the playing games
as this. As the seedings currently stand, our plays in
the East would be seventy six Ers at Heat and
Hawks at Bulls. In the West, the playing games would
be the Suns at the Kings and the Warriors at
the Lakers.

Speaker 5 (24:00):
Have several of the faces of the league. Crazy this, Yeah,
it's gonna be crazy.

Speaker 4 (24:08):
But that being said, hopefully everyone else chooses to lose
a couple of games and maybe the Lakers could end
up not being in the nine seat. That would be
That would be fucking great. I'd appreciate it. All right, Yeah,
time for a segment. I'm calling is John serious? And
today's segment is is John serious about wearing jorts all
summer or not?

Speaker 3 (24:28):
Tyler your thoughts first? Yes, I think John is. It's
very intentional about this jort summer. And I for one,
welcome home. I gotta you know, I gotta yeah, yeah,
I got a couple pair of jorts.

Speaker 6 (24:40):
You know that I break out every blue moon.

Speaker 3 (24:43):
You know what I'm saying, So you know, jorts, I
feel like jeorts have gotten a bad rap, right, Like,
I feel like they shouldn't necessarily be a staple of
your summer wardrobe. But you know, a sprinkling of a
jort here and there, you know, can can do you
a little good.

Speaker 5 (24:56):
I think it might be a bro nigga. Like, I'm
just like Dog, the baggy look is going to style.
I was coming back and stut.

Speaker 2 (25:05):

baggy ass pants. I'm like, these ships fire, nigga. I'm
actually wearing my Geordans that look too beefy with the
other ships that I had before.

Speaker 4 (26:06):
Sean and I were just talking about how the first time,
how like mentally jarring, it was the first time I
walked onto a high school campus after the tight small
shorts had like fully taken over, and I was like, like,
when we were in high school, if your kneecap was showing,
someone was going to get the back of your neck
or something.

Speaker 5 (26:26):
You know what I mean, bro, hide them knees, brother,
You know what I mean, what are you doing? Nah?
But for real, like it.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
I remember when skinny jeans came out. I think I
told you all this story. Like I was in Urban
outfits trying on a pair of skinny jeans. Two bad decisions.
Urban outfitters trying on skinny jeans.

Speaker 5 (26:44):
You know what I mean. I don't have to build
for that. You feel me either of those situations.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Tried them on, and when I pulled them off because
I tried them, I say, oh, hell no, they ain't.
I tried them on for like half a second, pulled
them off and pulled my jaws with them. I'm sitting
there at Urban OUTFU. The universe was trying to tell
me I could never do this again.

Speaker 5 (27:01):
Motherfucker. Are you fucking crazy? Yo?

Speaker 2 (27:03):
God's a comedian, bro, he was clown in my ass.
You feel me like, Nigga, Yeah, this ain't for you, brother,
Let the kids do this one. But yeah, so dog,

here with these baggy shits.

Speaker 5 (27:14):

I'm glad it's coming back around.

Speaker 8 (27:18):
Bro.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
I've I've allowed myself to get the end seam up
above the kneecap.

Speaker 5 (27:22):
But I've never been comfortable with it.

Speaker 4 (27:23):
And I have to tell you I've been cheated, bro,
because I always had thick Italian mediass.

Speaker 5 (27:28):
Th dis bro man, you know what I mean over there.

Speaker 4 (27:32):
I've never a but I've never been able to flash
him around because I just that's not when we grew up.

Man, Like, I just don't feel comfortable with it. But
these kids now they play basketball and fucking like five
inch incy Mike jealous, Mike jealous.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
That should have been me.

Speaker 5 (27:46):
That should have been me.

Speaker 4 (27:48):
I'm not jealous because I still look at it and think, No,
I don't know about that pandy.

Speaker 5 (28:00):
You were in a pandy. I gotta do it. I

shorter than normal.

Speaker 2 (28:04):

you keep your nuts in there?

Speaker 5 (28:16):
What mathematics is going on to handle that? Brother? That's
crazy doing some calculations.

Speaker 4 (28:22):
The other part of your George summer, your nineties summer,
is uh, we just got the announcement that No Worries
has a new album coming out, thank God finally June seventh.

Speaker 5 (28:32):
Look at it. Look at how happy John is right now.

I got my motherfucking Tims on baggy pants the sun roof.
Fuck you feel me and fucking no worries playing it.
Or I got my George on Nigga. I'm reliving my childhood.
You feel me to a degree. That's gonna bring me back.
That's gonna feel nostalgic, even though this is a new album,
because they make nostalgia music like, it's gonna feel like

(28:55):
a particular time period, Like we talk about ninety six
with so much love. It's like one of our favorite
years of our childhood. It's gonna I feel like we're
gonna we don't have like I'm be forty one this time.
But I'm not gonna be outside, you know what I mean?
You know, but uh, you know I'm not gonna be
outside the same way you feel.

Speaker 5 (29:14):
But yeah, man, it's gonna be fun. I'm excited for it.

Speaker 6 (29:16):
Oh yeah, I mean shit, h yes, Lord dropped? What
twenty sixteen? Yeh a year for music too? Ye Twenty
sixteen was an incredible year.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
But yeah, like, like we've had this discussion before, and yes, Lord,
like that's one of the handful of the best R
and B albums of that entire decade to me, bro
like I Periodeah, it's up there with like Blonde and
Control and Chasing Summers.

Speaker 5 (29:36):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure for sure.

Speaker 3 (29:38):
But yeah, definitely looking forward to Like Anderson Pack and
Knowledge have something really really fucking special, right, Like I
love Knowledge that sound like like, you know, the whole
strip down, you know, the gritty type shit, like like
like we're talking vinyl type music. He's a vinyl you know,
music maker, you know what I'm saying. So definitely definitely
looking forward to to to that follow up to Yes Lad,
because like I said, Yes, Law was fucking incredible. If

(29:59):
they can capture that lightning in that bottle again, we
got something special.

Speaker 5 (30:05):
I agree, love it. Agreed, yep co signs all the
way around.

Speaker 4 (30:08):
Okay, last last question before we get out of here,
Uh Tyler, mister Perryer, what will it take for the
rapper Drake to respond to the rapper Kendrick Lamar with
rap music?

Speaker 5 (30:22):
What would it take for him to get in a
booth and record a song instead of doing what did
you say?

Speaker 3 (30:27):
He was doing it at his concerts, Bro, This motherfucker
out here shooting firecrackers at goddamn Zordan Travis Scott, Like,
what the fuck is that?

Speaker 6 (30:36):
We do not care about this? Shiit nigga go rap?

Speaker 3 (30:38):
Like you know what I'm saying, whole industry on your
motherfucker had and you and you doing concerts, giving giving
speeches like you know people or when they're when they're
mad at you, they're really mad at themselves. No, this
ain't it, dog Like, Kendrick is not mad at you
because he's mad at himself. Kendrick has carved out a
very nice life from something. I think he's pretty satisfied
at where he is. That shit don't work, bro, you
know what I'm saying, Like, like, like we discussed Drake,

(31:00):
you're the biggest rapper in the world, Kendrick is the
second biggest rapper in the world. I think he's pretty
comfortable and and and and I think he's, you know,
pretty proud of his accomplishments. That that whole you wish
you had my life shit don't fly with Kendrick because
Kendrick does not want that shit he's a recluse, right
but but yeah, it's it's just like like dog, if
you really want to, you know, get out here and
beat your chestco rap motherfucker. But I don't think he's
gonna rap because, like I said, that push your t shit,

(31:20):
I think that shit scarred him. I don't think he's
ever going to let another rapper bait him into a battle,
right like, because you know, push your tea, you know,
do that hook out. Motherfucking Drake bit and fucking push
your te had that motherfucker and tuck and just obliterated
that man. So I think Drake is like permanently scarred now.
He knows if rappers are bating him, they might have

(31:41):
a motherfucking whammy behind door number two if he comes back,
you know what I'm saying. So, so I don't think
Drake is gonna re respond unless Kendrick like makes a
whole track, and I don't see Kendrick doing that. I
think Kendrick is like, you know, you're a move now,
and so we're we're never gonna get that bad We
wanted that battle for like ten fucking years now We're
just never gonna get it.

Speaker 6 (31:57):
Bro.

Speaker 5 (31:57):
He needs therapy, Bro, that's what we needed. Needs to
get over what happened. Yes, the holes was laughing at you,
but it's okay. But he needed he needed to talk
to a therapist, get past that. You know what I'm saying.
He hung the cleft, he said, he's scarred. What'd you
call it?

Speaker 6 (32:13):
Push ASD push a TSD.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
You know he only he's only a recreational rapper now. Brother,
he doesn't want to sign up for the big leagues anymore.

Speaker 5 (32:23):
He's scared. But yeah, man, tighten up, g rap you
feel me. He still got it, you know. And if
you catch an al like bro, like, it's not not
a big deal. You know what I'm saying. Michael Jordan
lost a slam duck contest. He's still the greatest, bro,
you know what I mean. But you got to go
through the you know what I'm saying. You got to
go through it to get there. So he's also doing that.

Speaker 4 (32:40):
His show's dressed up like a need for Speed creative
character with like the different like motorcycle armor on or some.

Speaker 6 (32:47):
Ship man out there.

Speaker 5 (32:49):
Bro, he look like a Travis Scott if we don't
even understand the words Travis, Like that's the guy you
want to come at Brome, Come on somebody with some bars.

Speaker 4 (33:06):
Man, we need that, bro, Come on, man, you actually
I was gonna ask you guys if you think this
is a reach or not, but you actually touched on
what I was gonna point out, John, which is like,
we grew up on sports music, and part of what
was fun about it, being honest, was that like almost
like an unchecked masculinity of like, I'm gonna prove on
better than you. I'm gonna prove on better than you.

(33:26):
And we've talked about this with the Slam Dunk contest.
It's not about like it's so much of it is
about liability, aversion at this point about like management of
expectations and brands. Brand management is nasty, bro, Yeah, but
that's what's taking everything over because the money is so
big and because people are feeding their personalities in that.
But I think Tyler hit it exactly on the head,

(33:47):
like he everyone is looking at what they have to lose.
That's it, and that's not fun. I don't give a
fuck if you like I would like, we want the fun,
we want the challenge. We don't want oh, well, like
you said, if I lose the slam dunk contest. Maybe
I go down in people's estimation or some shit like
I want we want people stepping up and going after it.

(34:09):
Like and to be honest with you, that's what was
so fun about the about That's why women's basketball just
got twelve million viewers.

Speaker 5 (34:16):
Bro, dog shit, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
Like, Bro, when we was watching lsu Vers, you know
what I'm saying, Veruskaitlyn basically you know what I'm saying,
Verus I would like I would say, like, Bro, this
is a this is some dog like Bro.

Speaker 5 (34:26):
They would and also like the yukon Us kame he
got scrappy. You know what I'm saying. We were seeing
dog shit in the game. That's what we need. You
feel me. We need that in wrap. We ain't got that.
You feel me. That's why and that's why I feel
like I think I think that's what Kendrick said. Bro,
He's like where the dogs at Nigga? Like, where the
where the niggas that They're like, Bro, come at me, please,
I need that. You know what I'm saying. Like, and

(34:46):
if you beat me cool, you know what I'm saying,
I'm better because of it. You feel me? But he
has an old school of proach to shit and like
niggas is coming with.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
Brand managers and you know what I'm saying, and pr
and you know, you know, Drake was winning the internet.
That's how win battles. But you can't just you got
in this battle. You don't got that power.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
Bro.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
It's it's my mono and mono. You really gotta outrap
this man, you know what I'm saying, Like gee, like
I hate seeing people approaching that way. Man, you know,
like believe in yourself, nigga, you feel me like we
need you, We need we need Drake to a lot
of yourself and you need to motherfucker.

Speaker 5 (35:19):
You know what I'm saying, get out there, bro. And
and it's all he ain't talented. The dude is mistly talented.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
He's he's he raps better than his actual music, like
when he just really really raps.

Speaker 5 (35:30):
We saw that with the additions on the most recent joint.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Even were like, Okay, y'all want raps, here's raps, nigga,
I still got the ship.

Speaker 5 (35:37):
Well, dog Kenrick Kendrick wants to see it.

Speaker 6 (35:41):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (35:42):
He's sitting there with them. You know, you go you
gonna just let him sit there by himself. You're gonna
not You're gonna be a no show. You go, You're
gonna turn around and beat up, uh Travis Scott.

Speaker 3 (35:51):
You know like that that sucking shit, Brora know that
I even care about, Like I do not want to
see Travis Scott in a battle for what right?
