Speaker 2 (04:11):
I'm saying, nothing like frankensense and murder like in the
same You know what I'm saying, lete like frankensense is.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
What do you want to hear it?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Yeah? Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
It's an aromatic resin used in incense and perfumes.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, I mean the word the word incense is right
in the motherfucker. Yeah yeah, I don't I suppose it is.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
Inse Franks red hot and Frank's incense and the next
time by side, You know.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I have they not created that yet? Why can't I
go to frank incense?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Had I not realized that The English word frankncense derives
from the old French expression from incense, meaning true incense,
maybe with the sense of high quality. It just means
good incense.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
That's what they gave baby Jesus that real.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
In top flight I have, I have franking sense in
my facial wash and I'm like, how do you like?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Thought thought?
Speaker 4 (05:17):
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
That's why I realized it was real.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I thought freaking sense and Murr was like some made
up ship, right, I didn't think it was.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
You know what I mean? Like, what do you They
gave them freaking sense? Murr and what was? They were
three gifts?
Speaker 4 (05:28):
You got right, drinking sense?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
They gave that Nia incense, like we know you don't
wash your legs, so go ahead and rub this on yariga.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
You know you gave him a back of that now
or what is it that now champ or whatever? Yeah,
we ain't them Nigga were different.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
But can you imagine two thousand years ago with a baby.
How incredible good perfume or incense would have been because that,
you know what I mean, everything smelled like ship two
thousand years ago? I can't imagine.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Okay, okay, I think the places didn't smell like ship,
like the city's here, city stink for they.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Didn't have a place to put garbage john, oh wow, I.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
Mean or poop, I know, but they shed they shedding
holes right like okay, I mean like in England until
fairly recently, like on the global scale, just coming out
of the castles, rats, all types of ship.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Yeah, yeah, chamber pots.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
The window, good luck.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Isn't that where the thing about? Uh? What order men
and women walking? Isn't that where that comes from? That?
It's like the man has to be further away from
the wall because that's where the poop and the ship
would be, the shipp and piss would be thrown out.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I didn't know, Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Tough times. Yeah, I think it was just Frankensonson murder.
And is it mirror or mirror? Is am I am? I?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Or am you? I thought?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Was why?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I think? And gold?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Oh okay, I thought you were thinking of Parsley sage
Rosemary something. I thought it was just Franken CeNSE urr okay.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
And this nigga Franks and then gold. I mean that's.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Is the same perfume thing too. So it's it was
really like, you're gonna smell like ship because you're a
baby and there's no showers, but you're gonna smell good.
And here's gold.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
That's that's the fire gifts. That's very thoughtful, very thoughtful.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Yeah, all right, that was Bible talk, James.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Is that from the Bible. I was like, I have
no idea what you guys are talking about.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Jesus, you heard of them the most famous baby shower
gifts and history, the Three Wise Men brought Frankenson's mirror
and gold to the baby.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
I just found out that Jesus and God are the
same person, like three three weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
That's up to that's up for. That's a matter.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
And the Holy Ghost that's a trinity, the Holy Trinity
you hear.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Okay, got it?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Got yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
I mean one of the funniest What exactly does the
Holy Ghost doing all this? He feels like the Chris
Bosh of like that Big Three, like like.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
We know Jesus, he might be God.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
The Holy Ghost might be closer to Braun to be
honest with.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
You, because he's yep yep, that's on first yep, yep, yep, yep.
I feel like doing like the he could he he's
Jesus and God, but he also can do the you
know what I'm saying, a little side ship. You feel
me like he's dropping off assists and whatnot. You know
what I mean, he making sure the offense set up.
You feel what I'm saying, like, you know, he.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
He's he's he's yelling on defense and offense.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
You know, hey, bro, you know he knows everybody's you know,
what they should be doing on offense and indeed, so
that's how I feel about the Holy Ghost.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
You know, down blocks and he feel in pocket.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
You feel me. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
You can finish up on the fast break or start
the fast break, you feel I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
One of the most enlightening experts of my life. Y'all know,
I didn't grow up religious, but shar was a religious
studies major at UCLA. But have I told y'all so
I've gotten a lot of stuff through her. But have
I told y'all After nine to eleven, so nine to
eleven a half of my senior year of high school.
One of my best friends at high school was Muslim.
His name was Akbar, and it was not a great
time to be a Muslim dude named Akbar in America.
(09:21):
And so we started a like Muslim friendship club. Basically
that was like he just wanted to explain his religion
to people who are curious, to just explain, like, yeah,
it's a lot of Muslims out here. My people didn't
blow this shit up. You know, I'm more likely to
have family working there than whatever else. But we did
(09:41):
a series of it was like a very religious teacher
on campus, very Christian religious, and he had like a
you know, poly Christians club or whatever, and we did
a series of lunchtime like not debates, but just explorations
of like what are the differences and similarities between these religions.
And we spent basically the whole year getting through well
(10:05):
the Holy Trinity, like because from Muslims are like the
Holy Trinity sounds like some you believe in more than
one God. Shit, brother, like, I don't think your Abrahamic
religion is this Abrahamic because you thought it would, and
so we basically spent the whole year getting to like no, no, no,
they believe that the Trinity is all one thing. So
it's just three faces of the same Christ, you know,
however you want to describe it. And so after about
(10:27):
a year of you know, we got through senior year,
it was like a handshake, like, well we we checked
the first thing off the list, so real, like we're
not really gonna put all this shit together, but the
effort is there, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Don't they believe like Mohammed's the nigga, Like that's that's
the one that they handled all the ship like probably
God for us, Jesus is the nigga that like you know,
came down in.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
No, but Mohammad is not. Is a distinct is a
separate person? Is a person's yeah exactly.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
But it's more like.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
It's more like Moses than than like Jesus.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Jesus like a demi gods of sorts in Christianity and
Islam doesn't have that prophets or Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
But but what I'm saying, like like the the lead
character in the Bible and in the Bible is Jesus.
You know what I'm saying, yeah, yeah, you know what
I'm saying, Like Nick, he knows who Jesus is. Jackson
knows who Jesus.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
We don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It does about the Bible, you feel I'm saying. That's
what I'm saying.
Speaker 9 (11:25):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Heard of frank Stoncense, right, So that's what I'm saying.
Muhammad is that person, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
In the Koran? Right.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
No, I wouldn't say he's he's like, yeah, I'd say
he's more of Moses is kind of yeah, the more
apt comparison in regardless regards to be he's more so.
Speaker 10 (11:45):
Physics the main character his first billing. I would say, yeah, Okay,
that's all I'm saying. You know, I'm not Yeah, I'm
not a one for one to one of comparison. I'm
just wondering if he's the guy, you know, to Muslim people,
you feel me, go.
Speaker 4 (11:59):
Find four people less qualified to have this conversation.
Speaker 1 (12:01):

Speaker 4 (12:02):
I dare you it was pretty good, though, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
I think we did pretty good.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
Speaking of people who are or are not qualified to
offer constructive criticism, Anthony Edwards, who we love and support,
stepped down and said that the only skilled basketball player
of his era in generation was Michael Jordan, and I
haven't seen someone make Magic Johnson take the corporate face
(13:24):
off in a minute, But he got under magic skin
with that comment, because Magic came out and it was
no joky joke. Smiling Magic Johnson. It was this motherfucker's
not qualified to talk about me or or anyone else
in my generation. What did y'all think of the exchange?
(13:44):
And does it hurt seeing Aunt be super wrong on
such a big scale.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Yeah, I mean I ain't mad at AUNT because you
can tell that it's not from a place of maliciousness.
It's just being a young kid who's you know, not
hit to that era. He flat out said, I haven't
watched a lot of hoops from that era, but I
know MJ was like the only skilled one, and I'm like, okay,
well those two don't correlate there.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
But I mean.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
I like Magic finally, you know, taking that route because
it's just it's just like, like you know, it's a
continuing thing that we have to excel to MJ by
putting everyone else down from his era, right, And that's
just no. No, Magic Johnson bro to me, he is
the hands down fourth gradest basketball player of all time.
Like I firmly believe that there's the goat tier where
(14:38):
it's MJ, Kareem and Bron they're on the goat tier.
The tier directly under them is Magic Johnson. He's on
that motherfucker by himself. Then it's everyone else, bro. Like, look,
Magic Johnson in twelve years was a twelve time All Star,
went to nine Finals in twelve years, won five rings.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
From when he was seventeen to twenty. He went on
this run.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
He won States, he won Mister Basketball Michigan, he won
a college Championship, he won Most Outstanding Player of the
Final Four, and he won Finals MVP his rookie season
and gave us one of the most impressive closeout games
in Finals history as a rookie Game six when Kareem
was out and he had to play center, had forty two,
(15:19):
fifteen and seven. And he accomplished all that for when
he was seventeen to twenty, right, like Magic, it was,
is a super incredible basketball player. I think we might
be at the point where we're under asking anyone of
it because you know Steph is sure. Yeah, because because
we had the discussion when people saying Steph was better,
I was like, nah, Steph is hands down the second
best point guard ever. But nobody's touching Magic in regards
(15:41):
to that. And like I said, I think he's the
fourth greatest basketball player of all time. So I see
why Magic had to, you know, remind motherfuckers like like nah,
and shit was real and I was one of them ones.
And I'm not going to stand on you. You stand
for you, you know, disrespecting my arro. So I ain't mad
at Magic.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I mean I feel like, you know, Magic don't get
the love he deserves. And I to feel like he
probably realized that when Steph was like he's a goat
and people were actually arguing whether Magic was better than
Steph or not. Steph's supposed to say he's better, of course,
you know what I'm saying, say you're better. But like
if we looking at like you know, careers, it's very
obviously who's a better point guard? You know what I'm saying,
(16:17):
Magic is a better point guard. You feel me? So
I think this could have been a residual, like you
know what I'm saying, where like you know of what
Steph said, we're like, okay, okay, y'all got.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
A tweaking do you remember the fuck I am?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
And then this and then like saying this shit on
some like Matt MJ was the only like nigga, look
at the resume, my nigga, look at you know what
I'm saying look at how I and also look at
how I played, not just the resume, because he could
have been good amongst bombs. This nigga was a great
basketball player, you know what I'm saying. He played the
position in the way we had never seen anybody play
the position before him.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
You feel me? So I don't, don't. I mean? I
mean this is I feel like he doesn't get the
love he deserves.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
And maybe at this point he's seeing that, Like, Yo, man,
y'all forget who the fuck I really am?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
I was really him, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So I get it, man, I mean, but I do
feel like didn say like he didn't say it with his.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Nuts, you know what I mean, he did, you know?
Speaker 2 (17:03):
He he just was like making a flip and comment
and magines like, I'm not the nigga to be flipping
with be flipping with these other motherfuckers, But.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Don't play with my name. You feel me, and I
respect that, you know what I mean?
Speaker 6 (17:14):
I feel like Magic Johnson and Larry Bird both have
gotten just consistently underrated over the in the last five
to ten years, as Steph has been amazing and Kevin
Durant has been amazing, everyone's like, oh, those two guys
are this generation's version of Magic and Bird and there,
and everyone's saying they're better or a lot of people
are saying they're better and liked. Right, sure, But even so,
like Larry Larry Bird, Larry Bird was taught was either
(17:37):
first or second in MVP six straight seasons.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
He six career got I think the.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
Seasons and that when he was created for him, was
he basically when Sho did and had fifty forty ninety
seasons multiple of them, like he was he won three
straight MVPs. Like there's a lot of these guys from
that era I feel like are getting underrated because it
doesn't because the skill and the athleticism is so high.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Now, well, I think there's a there's a couple other things.
One is Magic in particular suffers from being famous at
a lot of things at this point. I mean, he's
just I think to the average younger person, he's as
famous for being a business person or basketball.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Snoop basically right, one hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
And I think it's a very similar thing where like,
you know, you talk to kids in middle school and stuff,
do they know how raw early Snoop was is a rapper. No,
he's a he's a tootemic symbol of a genre of
things or something. I think you hit that on the head.
But it's it's it's interesting you bring up Snoop because
I was gonna say, I think this Anthony Edwards thing
(18:41):
reminds me very much of when Vince Staples, where people
were upset at Vince for oh, you're you're supposed to
be a rapper, but you don't understand the true legacy
of Tupac or you know, rappers from the eighties or something,
and Vince Staples is a response was like, I'm young,
I'm not an old fucking person like you, And like,
I think it's it's something very similar with aunt, like
(19:05):
Michael Jordan, we think of still as a recent era
of basketball. Michael Jordan's career was over when Anthony Edwards
was born. Matt him talking about Michael Jordan would be
the same as us talking about basketball players born in
the early nineteen fifties when we were kids. So like,
it's but because of the continuity of the media narratives
(19:27):
and the goat versus whatever, you expect there to be
this like familiarity. But it's like, why would he know
about basketball in the eighties, you know, like I don't.
You don't expect people to really sit down and become student.
I don't expect young people to sit down and become
students when we're making them multi millionaires when they're eighteen.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
You know.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Also, the game has changed so much, you know what
I mean, Like what is he really gain by going
and watching these games?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Turning?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
There's certain players in like you could take a piece
of a game, you know what I'm saying, But the
game has changed so much so it's not as as
relevant Like a these basketball if I'm gonna sit down
and like be a student of that for what, You're
not gonna take much of that game, of that of
that you know era and bring it into this era
of basketball.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
It's just so different now.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
And I also think that in these basketball discussions, too
much of a premium is placed on athleticism. I think
that you can for sure probably make the case that MJ.
Woods perhaps the most athletic player in the league during
his era, the best mid era, just what we've ever
seen in the sport, right, Just a phenomenal athlete. But bro,
like you're like you are playing in today's NBA when
(20:33):
two of the three best players in the world are
some chubby dudes from Eastern Europe with lunch lady arms, like, like, like,
we put way too much of a premium on athleticism.
If you can play basketball, you can play basketball, bro.
Like That's why I never bought into those knocks that
that Magic and Larry Bird weren't super athletes and they
want to thrive in today's era. No if, because I
think that's the reason why they would thrive in today's era,
(20:53):
because they've got that fucking supercomputer brain, a basketball brain
where where they can work past those limitations.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Right.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Like, Like I said, if you see Jokic and fucking
Luke out here killing, why wouldn't you think Magic and
Bird would kill?
Speaker 4 (21:05):
You?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Don't think Magic would be considered an athlete this I mean,
like not Magic in the eighties, But Magic in the
eighties was an athlete, you know what I'm saying, Like
Paul he was.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
He didn't magic, bro.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
He didn't have the dal athleticism that you expect people
now to have.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I think what I'm saying, but
that but that's what he's saying.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
That era was. In that era, he wasn't considered athletic.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
No, he was considered an anomaly does a six to
nine point card, But no, no considered I'm a super athlete.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
No, I know he I mean he wasn't dominique or nothing.
But yeah, but I.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Think the the I don't know all this this stuff
always happens on the cross generational thing. It is what
it is. But yeah, like Magic and Bird, I think
kids now feel like Michael Jordan invented the NBA and
it's like, well, Magic and Bird are the one that
everyone got paid off Magic, right, you know what I mean.
So I don't know, I don't hold it against I think.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Both of them will be exactly who they were there
in this era.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah, I think those are the when you get to
the top ten all time, top fifteen, I don't think
era matters, you know what I'm saying. I think we're
talking about guys that are in the you know what
I'm saying. Like, you know, I feel like if there
was a league above the league, they'd be good at
that league, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Like, so I just feel like when we get to yeah,
I just.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
But that's that's like like when people when people are like, Oh,
they couldn't shoot the three. It's like they didn't shoot
the three because they were practicing shooting the three. But
they were they got they were the best in the
world at the thing.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Ever, what was available to Yeah, yeah, you feel like I.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Just have to assume, like are use Sho Heo Tani. Currently,
as an example, show Hay is the best, like one
of the best power hitters and best pitchers in the league.
He can't pitch this year. I think he's still in
nineteen bases last year. This year he's okay, I can't pitch.
I'm gonna become the best base steeler in baseball. And
he you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (22:52):
He went from wait, is he really cold like that
on the base path?
Speaker 6 (22:56):
Yes, he is a forty forty season currently he is
the fifth ever.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
Em will be forty forty season, and he did it
thirty games faster than anyone else has ever done. He's
gonna be probably almost certainly the first forty five forty
five home runs and stolen base guy ever. But John
he didn't work on stealing bases until this year. He
like he stole last year six foot six.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I think, and he's stealing fucking yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
But that, but my plassner bros. One on one. Yeah,
you know what I'm saying like that, but.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
My but my point was stealing bases at sixty six.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
But my point being, if he decided to go be
the best third baseman in the world next year, he'd
probably be able to do it because he's like and
so it's similar to these dudes where you say, oh,
he couldn't shoot the three, he goes, well, because he
wasn't working on shooting the three in nineteen seventy or
whatever the fuck? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Anyway, all right, nigga, why did you send me this information? Mike?
Speaker 4 (23:51):
I texted chat about it?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Did Oh I didn't see the group chat? Oh man,
you see the baseball shit individually? Damn No, I texted the.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Group chat because if he's the fifth ever forty forty,
everyone else who did it did it in like one
hundred and forty five to one hundred and sixty games,
he did it in one hundred and twenty. And if
you look at it, I think three of the two
of the four guys that had done it before him
were like lab freak steroid users. So you know what
(24:19):
I mean? And I saw it. It's interesting because the
people of the allegiance to Barry Bonds, which I understands,
People's like.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Didn't do it, he did do it?
Speaker 10 (24:26):
Do it?
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Okay, okay, he did it with the Pirates.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Giants, the Giants, Okay, you know, but people are like, oh, congrats,
show Hey, now has Barry Bonds's eleventh best season?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
No?
Speaker 4 (24:35):
No, no, no, show Hey. One hundred and twenty games
into this season, has Barry Bonds's eleventh best season? You
know what I mean? He's got another forty games where
he could do so and his fortieth home run was
a walk off Grand Slam.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
He's fucking different. Anyway.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Let's talk about speaking of the changing of the guard
in hoops Cooper Flag Savior.
Speaker 9 (24:59):
Hey, Yah, in my nut, Bro, I'll be selling it, bro,
like nigga, I'm telling you for you want to have the.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Dude, I don't, it'd be it'd be at least seven
figures per shot. He's a god.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
He's a God's nigga. Good and good luck if it
work or not. You know what I'm saying, Like, that's
your body, not mine. Obviously, you feel.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Me because I am not human. He's a DEMI.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
God, Bro, I'm telling you you want to at minimum,
At minimum, the athlete is gonna be a professional athlete, right,
you know what I'm saying, at minimum will be a
pro athlete.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying, Like, come on, is
that legal?
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I would find out if I would show Hey, I'd
be looking at it. I've been looking up you. I
would have that information on hand for you if I
was with that nigga right now. For sure, I'm only
five or eleven. I'm a regular nigga, so I don't
need to know that information. But I would show Hey,
I get Garanteoa. Has somebody looked that shit up? For sure?
Speaker 10 (26:02):
Bro?
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Hey, No, I don't know that anyone in America is
more famous than shohe Atani is in Japan. We went
to the Japanese grocery store we go to in Torrents
and if there's he's, he's on eighteen different products. And
then they get such big viewership in Japan that half
of the ads in Dodger Stadium are in Japanese.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
This is nineteen famous, yeah, twenty twenty four in Japan.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
Yeah right, But like our friend who our friend who
works in Japan said it's like, you know, the games
are on a weird times. Obviously, they said when show
he's batting, people would like the TV's on for every
Dodger game in every corporate boardroom in Japan when he's batting,
everyone just stops talking and watches, and then when it's
(26:46):
over they just resume.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
Can you I would I would love to just witness that,
you know what I'm saying without and without knowing it's
a thing, right and seeing everybody stop just like without
knowing it's coming.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah, that'd be crazy.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Speaking of the changing of the guard in hoops, Cooper
Flag signed with New Balance this week. Gentlemen, this is
a very different world than we grew up in for
young basketball fans at this point, was that kind of
a oh I'm an old motherfucker moment? Or how did
you feel about, you know, the next guy going to
a company like New Balance?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
I mean, New Balance has been trying to make ways
in the in the athletic sneaker department. I will just
always be them as like a running shoe company and
a casual shoe company. I don't know if I'll ever
really view them as a hoops shoe company. I know,
Kawhi was kind of like their first really big signing.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
But I don't know. I mean, I can't Cooper Flag
might know his demographic.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I'm sure there's a lot of New Balance where is
that support Cooper Flag, So that might be a good
business move there.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
I was like, there's some people that are connected the
New Balance that I think are really dope and they
do it like Drake Collaborations, Joe Fresh Gooods. There's a
lot of cool people. I think the dude from AOD
is the creative director there. Uh so like they, I
mean as far as a brand, Action Bronson has a
collaboration with them. As far as a brand, I think
(28:12):
that's one of the cooler brands out right now. You
feel me, Like as far as a hoop shoe, I
remember this. I played with a nigga named Amn that
were New Balances and he was clowning the fuck out
his ass in high school, Like.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Nigga, you have new I didn't know they made hoop shoes,
but this ain't that time here.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
You feel what I'm saying, Like Nigga, I know they
had them shits, and you know where do you buy
the motherfucker? Said Big Five Nigga but uh, I thought
I saw them ships was was was fake? But uh
but yeah, gee, like I'm not I'm not too mad
at it. I'm not too mad because I feel like
a lot of the things that are going on with
New Balances are really dope, and I feel like a
lot of the athletic companies, you know, a lot of
(28:48):
the collaborations ain't hitting like that. One of my favorite
collabor collaborations this year is with secone was the Socony.
But I would Sayoni just often for the culture. Well
you know what I'm saying, Yeah, yeah, yeah, Nigga says
the coone you feel me? Yeah, but these names Jay Tips,
he had a.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Dope ass collaboration.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
So a lot of my favorite collaborations are always sneaker
companies that aren't the ones that we grew up.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
Like if it wasn't Nike, it's over with, you know
what I'm saying, Like fuck me or Jordan or whatever.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
But Dan Jordan, I think I think Jordan's on the
way to do some cool things that they have in
the past.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
But yeah, for the most part.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
I think you talked about what New Balance has going on.
Tyler talked about what Cooper Flag has going on. My
take on it is I think it says a lot
about what Nike does not have going on right now.
Because Cooper Flag was an eyb ok, he was a
Nike kid. Oh, he was a Nike kid, and so
they signed, you know, for the history of their company.
We take it for granted, but there was a couple
of key employees that they had who were making sure
(29:47):
that that pipeline existed from someone staying in touch with
you from Nike from the time they first saw you
when you were fourteen until it was time to sign
a shoe deal. Nico Harrison is running, is it the MAVs.
I believe Raveling's retired, so at least for the southern
California guys, those were always the dudes that were like
the business card that stayed in the wallet, right right,
(30:09):
right right, So, and I think it's just kind of
this happens to companies. You take some things for granted.
I've been on the Nike campus. It's you've never seen
any shit like that before. They have Tiger Woods buildings
that are like it's a museum. But you get big
enough and you can kind of forget about we need
the you need the plug the one guy that's locking
(30:31):
up a sixteen year old and making sure mom and
dad know they could call him if they need anything
or whatever. And you know, I don't know. I think
they might need to to at the risk of upsetting
the resources, they might need to do some work to
make sure that that bridge still exists.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
I think, like.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Outside of collaboration, because now he has a bunch of
collaborations too. I think now he got away from a
particular thing in marketing with your storytelling, you know what
I mean? Like, do you remember, like when you do
you remember the Jordan commercial for the Join Twelves when
he was driving through the lane he spun and dunked
the basketball.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Y y'all remember that commercial? Not really well, I nigga
that I remember, Okay.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Basically the commercial is the nigga drove to the to
the basket, he spinds in the lane, dunks the basketbatches Jordan.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
This for the like White and Black Twelves when they
first let us know they were dropping.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Right, and they're playing like some fucking uh like classical
music in the background and basically like everybody's watching the
TV like the world stopped and that's what it felt
like when MJ.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
When watching MJ, for me, like I didn't.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
Even think what else was going you feel what I'm saying,
And so like there was that you know what I'm saying.
The Jordan twenty when they got Spike Lee to tell
the story of MJ. You remember that shit he was
sitting on the stupe. You know, like there's like those
moments where are like I felt.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Like they were moments.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
And I feel like Nike makes a lot of cool shit, bro,
you know what I'm saying, but it's not substitive in
the same way, you know what I mean. So I
feel like new balance of things they do. Like they're
allowing Joe fresh goods creating the way that Joe creates.
He's being a whole Chicago ass nigga under their flag,
you know what I'm saying, And so it feels very
genuine and authentic, and I think they've kind of got
(32:12):
away from that a little bit. And I feel like, yeah,
you can make really cool things that look beautiful, but
everybody's doing that.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
What are you gonna do to make shit stick?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Like the shit they did with Schoolboy Q with Tiger
were that shit hit because it felt really genuine and authentic,
you know what I mean. They need to get back
to that if they're gonna keep you know, I mean,
you just can't, you know. I think that they're getting
away from that. As far as when it comes to marketing,
which is the things that really appeal to people.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Yeah, yeah, not keep been resting on their laurels for
a minute, dog, Like, I agree, their newest shit does
not move me at all. Like ninety percent of the
nikes I own are like Redtros like shit from the
nineties and shit, right, like.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
They've been relying on that shit too.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Yeah, like like bro like, like like it should be
a fucking moment when the new bronze drop, when the
new Kd's drop, right, and like it was with the
Jordan's and shit with us and the Pennies with us
when we were kids.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
But it's just like, you know, I think basketball shoes
have gotten so basketballly. We're like, nigga, Like what was
cool about the Dion's and shit and the fucking Reggie
White and all that shit.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Nigga?
Speaker 2 (33:12):
I could wear them shits with my clothes, you know
what I mean. So like, yeah, it was a great
shoot of hooping like you could. You could actually hoop
in it. I hooped in a third high school hoop
in Jordan's a great shoitt hooping, But I could also
wear Jordan's, you know what I'm saying. Like, and I
feel like they a lot of people have gotten away
from that type shit, you know what I mean? And
I feel like that, like look like Lebron's. It seems
(33:33):
like Lebron's are only can only be worn by Lebron, you.
Speaker 10 (33:37):
Know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (33:38):
Like you love talking about marketing, Yeah, I said, you
love talking about this stuff because I like.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
The creative side of it. I like the creative side
of it. I like when you're the the idea side
of the ship, you know what I'm saying. And like,
you know, I really think it's interesting when companies like
working at a particular company and y'all can deduce what
I'm talking about, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (33:58):
That was a big ass company that you know, lost
the sauce.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
You feel what I'm saying. I see how motherfuckers louse
the sauce to get comfortable, you know what I mean.
Like you said, resting on your laurels and you become
a huge company in a time perio where it's important
to be able to make our left turn very colick
and very hard, and if you're a big ass company,
it's very hard to do that with all this red tape.
And I think that's really interesting how companies make these
shifts and our companies get comfortable and then before you
(34:22):
know it, you know what I'm saying, Uh, Cooper Flagg
is signed a new Balance.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
And what I think is cool about new Balances shift
is that to your point about basketball shoes being so basketball,
Like I looked up who their other athletes are, not
just basketball but outside of basketball, and I don't know
if any of them have a signature shoe, but it's
more about the brand at large than a specific shoe, right.
They have Kawhi Leonard, who I think has a shoe,
but like outside of Jamal Murray, Tyrese Maxi, Cameron Brink Shoheo,
(34:47):
Tony Coco, gov, Sidney McLaughlin, Like that is a wide
reaching and that's.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
A biby and it's byby though it's the particular about
the people that are getting shoe.
Speaker 6 (34:57):
It's like the collection of talent that we have. It
is very very cool.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Exactly exactly.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
And also like a company that was really good at
that was a Didas until they fucked up with with Kanye.
But the Datas were leaning dope into the colt and
it really really far into the culture too, and they
started to do like they were they were making real
big waves with like like the off court off you know,
outside of like sports type shit, you know what I'm saying.
With the leisure ship, you know what I mean? And
I mean they got away from it, but yeah, I
(35:26):
feel like New Balances kind of took that and they
running with that ship.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Bro.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
But like I said, like like Jackson pointed out, these
people are not just like really good at sport.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
These are people you want to sit down and hang with,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
So they're being very intentional about the people that are
put putting you know, uh you know, uh the New
Balance on so like Tyree's Maxie come on gee, Like that's.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
It feels like like there for New Balance is very
very aware of their identity where they know their lifestyle
brand first and foremost, where people.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
You see what I was looking for a lifestyle club.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
Yeah that's what the was, you know, right, Like like
like I said, like like their whole shit to me
is running and and casual ship right, like, and running
is a lifestyle you know, casual ship, that's lifestyle ship too.
So they're leaning into into athletes who have, you know,
big personalities, athletes who people are interested in on a
personal level, like Cameron Brank you know show Hey, so yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Good moves with that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
So I mean, bro, like, I see, I see why
he would sign with it. I know, I know, like
it's it's for us and like also and I'm keeping
in the stack. Brock damn, that's she's gonna pick up crazy.
Speaker 1 (36:34):
Like Showler.
Speaker 12 (36:34):
Right, I thought you run, you rubbed one out of me, brother,
but uh but uh terminology, Yeah, I didn't want to.
I didn't want I wanted to use that.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
I want to be sus. But anyway, yeah, I feel
like at the point, what what what we're talking about?
Speaker 1 (36:52):
New new balance?
Speaker 4 (36:52):
Right?
Speaker 2 (36:52):
Yeah, I believe that's trying to thok talking talking sus
and I just fucking I.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Got brother too excited.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
Bro Well, I was say, just when Jackson brought that up,
I I googled to see what they spent on Otani
and the he's been signed with them for like two years.
And no one has leaked the figure, which is crazy,
but it was rumored to be more than he was
making with the Angels, apparently, and of a sizable enough
(37:23):
amount that that's why he was able to do the
deferred cash deal with the Dodgers. It was like, well,
they're already paying me thirty million a year or whatever
to wear.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Shoes, so I remember the point.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
The point was if you look at a lot of
the motherfucking shoes people are wearing.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Out, Like I don't wear.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
The cool shit that I bought over the years, All
that shit sitting sitting in a crib like I bust
my A six. You feel me like Hella's those get
a lot of wear, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (37:48):
I was. I saw a chit get a fit off
in some sockies. I'm like, now do I want them? Motherfuckers?
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Shit's hardest shit, Like a lot of shit niggas is
wearing his cozy, comfortable shit and really getting off, getting
their issues off with that shit, you know what I'm saying. So,
I mean, it's it's kind of it's kind of the
market is kind of different right now, bro, Like you
just can't, you know, get a Travis Scott to do
a shoot with you or like a big name and
make sure that shits cracked crack. I feel like the uh,
(38:14):
the whole collaboration thing. If it's not super genuine, people
ain't really gonna trip off it no more, bro, you
know what I mean? Like, and also, people really are
really want comfortable, like you can't play about that shit,
you know what I'm saying. So that's a lot of
people are wearing new balance, a lot of people are
in a six. It looked like the DMV throughout the
fucking nation right now, nigga, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Shit all right.
Speaker 4 (38:37):
We got the news early this morning and had been
rumored for a couple of days. I don't know if
this will be of interest to literally anyone here besides me,
But did you guys hear that Oasis is getting back together?
Speaker 1 (38:49):
This shit like every other year is No, they haven't
played together in fifteen years.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Bro, I mean I feel like they announced that shit
like I think this is the first we're announc it. Oh, Bro,
even know I have such a unique relationship like we
we we should I don't know if we should know
that two brothers hate each other as much as they do,
like that should be in house bro.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
Liam said, I used to love my mom until she
birthed Noel. That's a quote from Wow. That's great, But
it was like, I guess, and I'm not obviously I'm
I am an Oasis fan, but I do not follow
the paparazzi, tabloid shit or whatever. Apparently, over the last
six months they've started saying nice things about each other
(39:31):
and interviews for the first time in like a decade.
Tyler of like when I would write a song and
sing it, it would be good, but then Liam would
sing it and it would be the fucking best song
of all time. So it's like they've sort of started
warming up to each other. But yeah, they announced a
tour of England and the UK and then I think
they're coming to America for like four shows or something
(39:54):
like that. Are gonna be fucking insane, but I'm very excited.
First of all, all of this. First of all, anytime
you get stories with quotes by those two dudes about
each other, it's great because they're the most insane quotes
anyone's ever said about.
Speaker 3 (40:07):
A family hole battherfucker's legit fucking hate each other.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Dude, Liam said about a solo album of Nole's like
five years ago. It's an unsophisticated album from an unsophisticated.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Man's that's that British shit talking right there too, Bro,
motherfucker probably SIPs some tea after he said that.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
Shit.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
God damn, but yeah, you know Oasis, man, it's just
I'm gonna get on.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
My old man shit, like, let's do it, baby, Yeah, Bro,
what's the story? Morning Glory? That's like the perfect nineties
alternative rock album. Dog.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
It's like like like it's an album that I feel
like has two fucking first Ballot Hall of Fame karaoke
songs on there with Wonderwall and Champagne Supers, and it
was like the fourth and sixth single right right. Yeah,
it was like like I remember the buzz around Oasis
and it wasn't even hyperbole like Gradi's saying that they
were like this is the second coming of the Beatles,
(41:02):
Like that's how big Oasis was during their running their nineties.
So so yeah, man, they hold a special place in
my heart back when fucking rock was actually like just genre,
right when it was a genre, when it was a
big fucking deal, When when you would just turn your
TV on the MTV and let it rode and and
you got hit to some new rock shit that you
(41:24):
never heard of, you what you fucked with and shit
like like yeah, man, Oasis is just they hold a
very special place in my heart as like like a
quintessential nineties rock band and like a quintessential like MTV
era band too.
Speaker 4 (41:36):
Yeah, I'm with you one hundred percent. What's the story
in Morning Glory is one of my I would guarantee
you one of the ten most listened to albums of
my It's like a go to if I feel like
shit but I need to go work out or I
need to like pick myself. It's been a go to
album for like twenty years or something for me. But
I think there's also something to me that's exciting about
the timing of so many so much shit we liked
(41:59):
in the nineties has come back and sucked.
Speaker 1 (42:02):
Do you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
Like, I've been a huge Pixies fan for twenty five years,
thirty years, whatever. I've gone to see some picture shows
with Fat Frank blackbro Like, I've still loved the pictures.
It was cool to be there, but it's not the
you know what I mean, Like you're not seeing what
you remember from being a kid or whatever. So the
fact that they took basically Obama got in office, they said,
everyone's in a good mood and then they just went
(42:26):
into a hole. We just haven't seen shit like from
him over the last fifty years, So I don't know.
Hopefully it works out, I don't know what the chances
are they make it. They still are a band by
the time they get to America, Yeah, just a relic
from a bygone era.
Speaker 3 (42:43):
I feel like streaming killed the rock group, where there's
just not enough money in that shit to cut the
pie four five ways anymore. I think streaming killed the
rap group, killed the rock group, killed the R and
B group. I think it just killed the music group period. Yeah,
And like I said, I do miss you know how
it felt in the nineties was a big fucking deal.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Yeah, and always was like at the center of that
ship for a few years.
Speaker 4 (43:05):
I can never keep the brothers straight. But one of
them literally said that Tyler I saw an interview with
him where he was making his own he was brewing
tea for himself, like during the interview British Man. But
he then he went off on a five minute ram.
I'm like, you want to know why kids want to
be podcasters and not rock stars anymore? He's like, because
I'm making my own fucking tea.
Speaker 1 (43:23):
He's in the nineties.
Speaker 4 (43:24):
We had a guy on staff who all he did
was make his tea. He was like, He's like, there
was so much money around that you would just pay
people to follow you around and provide you with tea
when you were ready for some tea. He's like, he say,
He's like, what sixteen year old boy wants to make
his own fucking tea?
Speaker 1 (43:42):
Hey, that's poetic as fucking god. Damn all right, Jackson.
Speaker 4 (43:47):
Do we have a couple of stuff the Olds to
round us out here on our Tuesday pod?
Speaker 1 (43:52):
We do have a Stumpy Old. We did? I did?
Speaker 2 (43:54):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (43:54):
I created a game within the stump the old game
this time, which is uh. I've been seeing a lot
of people talking about like new home decore trends, and
so what I've done is I found a list of
some from with like kind of funny names from a
website Men's journal or something like that, and so I'm
going to give you two at a time. One of
them is a real home decore like style that has
(44:17):
becomeing trendy, and one of them I've been made up,
and you've got to guess which one is the real
home to core trend Okay, first up, which of these
is real, quiet luxury or anti Gothic?
Speaker 1 (44:34):
Mm hmm. I'd say I'd say anti Gothic. I think
that's a that sounds like a real style. It sounds
made up, but I think that's why it's real.
Speaker 3 (44:45):
I'd say it's probably leaning on the definition of the
suffix anti, meaning like pre gothic and that opposed to Gothic.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
Oh, you know, early medieval type. Maybe that's the angle
I'm going with.
Speaker 4 (45:01):
I'm going quiet luxury. But I think you're reasoning is
sound that he would make up one that sounded fake,
He would make up one that sounded less fake than
the one he was doing.
Speaker 1 (45:10):
Yeah, that's the correct answer. Is quiet luxury. Quiet luxury
is real.
Speaker 6 (45:16):
It is apparently combined textures, limited prints, classic lighting, natural
materials and elements. You know exactly what it sounds like.
Speaker 4 (45:22):
This is our house. We have a we have a
mid century modernist influence quiet luxury statement going on.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
That's all right.
Speaker 6 (45:32):
Second one, which is real rich uncle chic or coastal grandma.
Speaker 4 (45:40):
Does both sound real to me? I could picture exactly
where both of those are exactly.
Speaker 1 (45:44):
Actually, I think I've actually seen coastal Grandma. Like, I
think there's rich uncle. Coastal grandma, Grandma? You think so rich?
She just seems like who's talking about their uncles? Nobody said,
I feel like like, if your uncle's rich, yeah, it
(46:04):
could be.
Speaker 2 (46:04):
It could be rich aunt, ti she If your uncle
is rich, she's probably across the globe. And do baidus
some ship that is unmitioned. I say coastal.
Speaker 1 (46:15):
Yeah, I'm leading with coastal gram.
Speaker 6 (46:17):
Coastal Grandma is correct, coast of Grandma is correct. One
a lot of floors and botanicals, contemporary wood uh needed,
earthy tones.
Speaker 4 (46:26):
Last, its my coastal grandma's house.
Speaker 6 (46:28):
It's your coast grandma's house exactly. Last one to break
the tie, which is which of these is real? I
did some alliteration here, dopamine design or serotonin stables.
Speaker 1 (46:42):
I'd say serotonin stables.
Speaker 3 (46:44):
The serotonin is like the soothing ship, right, I don't
think and dopamine is like the exhilarating ship. I don't
think anyone wants to be in an environment where you're
just exhilarated all the time.
Speaker 1 (46:53):
They both sound but I think serotonin.
Speaker 4 (46:55):
I'll go serotonin as well. Great brain chemistry analysis by Tyler.
Speaker 6 (47:01):
You are all wrong. It is dope mean design.
Speaker 1 (47:04):
What I feel like, I feel like it's like.
Speaker 4 (47:09):
It's I feel like it's based off a simplification of
what tier Tyler is correct.
Speaker 6 (47:14):
The idea is to celebrate self expression and personal style
in your home to court. So often is a little chaotic.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
People got like.
Speaker 6 (47:20):
Purple mirrors and ship like that colorful, big, big, colorful
state happy exactly exactly things. That's sort of like, explain
what what what?
Speaker 1 (47:30):
Why you're happy? When you're happy? What makes you happy
in your home to court?
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Did you see the pole? And I know you're a millennial,
so I'm not putting my finger at you as a
Gen Z person, but did you see the pole?
Speaker 7 (47:38):
That?
Speaker 3 (47:39):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (47:39):
That said Trump is more popular with males in Gen
Z than he is with the males in the Baby
boomer generation.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
That's weird.
Speaker 4 (47:50):
That's that's that was a start, And his numbers, like
his numbers in Gen X are better than his numbers
in the Baby boomer generation.
Speaker 3 (47:57):
To actually I feel like people are are have way
less talents for people who are full of ship, and
I think that.
Speaker 1 (48:03):
Might be a fact that I think.
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Also, I really think like him getting shot. I saw
this image from people posting like you know what I'm saying, like,
all right, bro, like what a fucking legend. Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (48:18):
I think some of that, like culture, yeah, contributing to that.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
See some of these meme accounts that are like you know, yeah, yeah,
really leaning in on him a little bit.
Speaker 6 (48:28):
So yeah, I think it's fair to say I stumped
the old stuff you did.
Speaker 2 (48:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we were one for three, we were
all one. I should have went with my gut the
first time I thought you were trying to trick me.
Speaker 4 (48:39):
You did the See that's the my son's wanted me
to break. It's the it's the it's a gay kid thing.
Go with your first instinct, Go with your first don't
sit there and overthink it. You'll convince yourself of every.
Speaker 1 (48:53):
Time I tied myself in a fucking knot.
Speaker 6 (48:55):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (48:58):
All right, that's all the time we got. We will
be back. I'm so excited for Thursday. We have the
first Jenkins and Jones Bowl between Tyler and Jackson University
of Miami versus USC. I've done my pre game visit
with USC. I'm scouted out, I got my storylines. I'll
tell you there's a key injury in South Central that
(49:21):
we've got a little concern over right now, but I
think we'll be good for Thursday. I still need to
visit Miami and get my storylines up, so John and
I could bring you the most professional broadcast possible news.

And we're not gonna let him talk about actual college
football at all, only analysis of the video.
Speaker 1 (50:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (50:07):
I'm afraid he's gonna turn me. He's gonna call me
Cliff Kingsbury. It's gonna be bad.
Speaker 1 (50:11):
I don't want I don't want that title. I don't
want that title.
Speaker 4 (50:14):
Actually, that'll be a good topic of conversation for John
and I is which USC or Miami coach are you
both resembling the most.
Speaker 2 (50:22):
Worried about the Cliff Kingsbury era.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Scarlets and aples and you know what.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
I'm saying, nothing like frankensense and murder like in the
same You know what I'm saying, lete like frankensense is.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
What do you want to hear it?
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Yeah? Yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
It's an aromatic resin used in incense and perfumes.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Yeah, I mean the word the word incense is right
in the motherfucker. Yeah yeah, I don't I suppose it is.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
Inse Franks red hot and Frank's incense and the next
time by side, You know.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
I have they not created that yet? Why can't I
go to frank incense?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
Had I not realized that The English word frankncense derives
from the old French expression from incense, meaning true incense,
maybe with the sense of high quality. It just means
good incense.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
That's what they gave baby Jesus that real.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
In top flight I have, I have franking sense in
my facial wash and I'm like, how do you like?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Thought thought?
Speaker 4 (05:17):
I didn't know.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
That's why I realized it was real.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I thought freaking sense and Murr was like some made
up ship, right, I didn't think it was.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
You know what I mean? Like, what do you They
gave them freaking sense? Murr and what was? They were
three gifts?
Speaker 4 (05:28):
You got right, drinking sense?
Speaker 2 (05:32):
They gave that Nia incense, like we know you don't
wash your legs, so go ahead and rub this on yariga.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
You know you gave him a back of that now
or what is it that now champ or whatever? Yeah,
we ain't them Nigga were different.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
But can you imagine two thousand years ago with a baby.
How incredible good perfume or incense would have been because that,
you know what I mean, everything smelled like ship two
thousand years ago? I can't imagine.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Okay, okay, I think the places didn't smell like ship,
like the city's here, city stink for they.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Didn't have a place to put garbage john, oh wow, I.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
Mean or poop, I know, but they shed they shedding
holes right like okay, I mean like in England until
fairly recently, like on the global scale, just coming out
of the castles, rats, all types of ship.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Yeah, yeah, chamber pots.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
The window, good luck.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Isn't that where the thing about? Uh? What order men
and women walking? Isn't that where that comes from? That?
It's like the man has to be further away from
the wall because that's where the poop and the ship
would be, the shipp and piss would be thrown out.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
I didn't know, Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Tough times. Yeah, I think it was just Frankensonson murder.
And is it mirror or mirror? Is am I am? I?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Or am you? I thought?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Was why?
Speaker 1 (07:05):
I think? And gold?
Speaker 4 (07:09):
Oh okay, I thought you were thinking of Parsley sage
Rosemary something. I thought it was just Franken CeNSE urr okay.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
And this nigga Franks and then gold. I mean that's.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Is the same perfume thing too. So it's it was
really like, you're gonna smell like ship because you're a
baby and there's no showers, but you're gonna smell good.
And here's gold.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
That's that's the fire gifts. That's very thoughtful, very thoughtful.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
Yeah, all right, that was Bible talk, James.
Speaker 6 (07:38):
Is that from the Bible. I was like, I have
no idea what you guys are talking about.
Speaker 8 (07:44):
Jesus, you heard of them the most famous baby shower
gifts and history, the Three Wise Men brought Frankenson's mirror
and gold to the baby.
Speaker 6 (07:56):
I just found out that Jesus and God are the
same person, like three three weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
That's up to that's up for. That's a matter.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
And the Holy Ghost that's a trinity, the Holy Trinity
you hear.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
Okay, got it?
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Got yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:09):
I mean one of the funniest What exactly does the
Holy Ghost doing all this? He feels like the Chris
Bosh of like that Big Three, like like.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
We know Jesus, he might be God.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
The Holy Ghost might be closer to Braun to be
honest with.
Speaker 2 (08:22):
You, because he's yep yep, that's on first yep, yep, yep, yep.
I feel like doing like the he could he he's
Jesus and God, but he also can do the you
know what I'm saying, a little side ship. You feel
me like he's dropping off assists and whatnot. You know
what I mean, he making sure the offense set up.
You feel what I'm saying, like, you know, he.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
He's he's he's yelling on defense and offense.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
You know, hey, bro, you know he knows everybody's you know,
what they should be doing on offense and indeed, so
that's how I feel about the Holy Ghost.
Speaker 4 (08:48):
You know, down blocks and he feel in pocket.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
You feel me. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
You can finish up on the fast break or start
the fast break, you feel I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
One of the most enlightening experts of my life. Y'all know,
I didn't grow up religious, but shar was a religious
studies major at UCLA. But have I told y'all so
I've gotten a lot of stuff through her. But have
I told y'all After nine to eleven, so nine to
eleven a half of my senior year of high school.
One of my best friends at high school was Muslim.
His name was Akbar, and it was not a great
time to be a Muslim dude named Akbar in America.
(09:21):
And so we started a like Muslim friendship club. Basically
that was like he just wanted to explain his religion
to people who are curious, to just explain, like, yeah,
it's a lot of Muslims out here. My people didn't
blow this shit up. You know, I'm more likely to
have family working there than whatever else. But we did
(09:41):
a series of it was like a very religious teacher
on campus, very Christian religious, and he had like a
you know, poly Christians club or whatever, and we did
a series of lunchtime like not debates, but just explorations
of like what are the differences and similarities between these religions.
And we spent basically the whole year getting through well
(10:05):
the Holy Trinity, like because from Muslims are like the
Holy Trinity sounds like some you believe in more than
one God. Shit, brother, like, I don't think your Abrahamic
religion is this Abrahamic because you thought it would, and
so we basically spent the whole year getting to like no, no, no,
they believe that the Trinity is all one thing. So
it's just three faces of the same Christ, you know,
however you want to describe it. And so after about
(10:27):
a year of you know, we got through senior year,
it was like a handshake, like, well we we checked
the first thing off the list, so real, like we're
not really gonna put all this shit together, but the
effort is there, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Don't they believe like Mohammed's the nigga, Like that's that's
the one that they handled all the ship like probably
God for us, Jesus is the nigga that like you know,
came down in.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
No, but Mohammad is not. Is a distinct is a
separate person? Is a person's yeah exactly.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
But it's more like.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
It's more like Moses than than like Jesus.
Speaker 3 (11:04):
Jesus like a demi gods of sorts in Christianity and
Islam doesn't have that prophets or Yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
But but what I'm saying, like like the the lead
character in the Bible and in the Bible is Jesus.
You know what I'm saying, yeah, yeah, you know what
I'm saying, Like Nick, he knows who Jesus is. Jackson
knows who Jesus.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
We don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It does about the Bible, you feel I'm saying. That's
what I'm saying.
Speaker 9 (11:25):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (11:26):
Heard of frank Stoncense, right, So that's what I'm saying.
Muhammad is that person, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
In the Koran? Right.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
No, I wouldn't say he's he's like, yeah, I'd say
he's more of Moses is kind of yeah, the more
apt comparison in regardless regards to be he's more so.
Speaker 10 (11:45):
Physics the main character his first billing. I would say, yeah, Okay,
that's all I'm saying. You know, I'm not Yeah, I'm
not a one for one to one of comparison. I'm
just wondering if he's the guy, you know, to Muslim people,
you feel me, go.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
Speaking of people who are or are not qualified to
offer constructive criticism, Anthony Edwards, who we love and support,
stepped down and said that the only skilled basketball player
of his era in generation was Michael Jordan, and I
haven't seen someone make Magic Johnson take the corporate face
(13:24):
off in a minute, But he got under magic skin
with that comment, because Magic came out and it was
no joky joke. Smiling Magic Johnson. It was this motherfucker's
not qualified to talk about me or or anyone else
in my generation. What did y'all think of the exchange?
(13:44):
And does it hurt seeing Aunt be super wrong on
such a big scale.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Yeah, I mean I ain't mad at AUNT because you
can tell that it's not from a place of maliciousness.
It's just being a young kid who's you know, not
hit to that era. He flat out said, I haven't
watched a lot of hoops from that era, but I
know MJ was like the only skilled one, and I'm like, okay,
well those two don't correlate there.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
But I mean.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
I like Magic finally, you know, taking that route because
it's just it's just like, like you know, it's a
continuing thing that we have to excel to MJ by
putting everyone else down from his era, right, And that's
just no. No, Magic Johnson bro to me, he is
the hands down fourth gradest basketball player of all time.
Like I firmly believe that there's the goat tier where
(14:38):
it's MJ, Kareem and Bron they're on the goat tier.
The tier directly under them is Magic Johnson. He's on
that motherfucker by himself. Then it's everyone else, bro. Like, look,
Magic Johnson in twelve years was a twelve time All Star,
went to nine Finals in twelve years, won five rings.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
From when he was seventeen to twenty. He went on
this run.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
He won States, he won Mister Basketball Michigan, he won
a college Championship, he won Most Outstanding Player of the
Final Four, and he won Finals MVP his rookie season
and gave us one of the most impressive closeout games
in Finals history as a rookie Game six when Kareem
was out and he had to play center, had forty two,
(15:19):
fifteen and seven. And he accomplished all that for when
he was seventeen to twenty, right, like Magic, it was,
is a super incredible basketball player. I think we might
be at the point where we're under asking anyone of
it because you know Steph is sure. Yeah, because because
we had the discussion when people saying Steph was better,
I was like, nah, Steph is hands down the second
best point guard ever. But nobody's touching Magic in regards
(15:41):
to that. And like I said, I think he's the
fourth greatest basketball player of all time. So I see
why Magic had to, you know, remind motherfuckers like like nah,
and shit was real and I was one of them ones.
And I'm not going to stand on you. You stand
for you, you know, disrespecting my arro. So I ain't mad
at Magic.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I mean I feel like, you know, Magic don't get
the love he deserves. And I to feel like he
probably realized that when Steph was like he's a goat
and people were actually arguing whether Magic was better than
Steph or not. Steph's supposed to say he's better, of course,
you know what I'm saying, say you're better. But like
if we looking at like you know, careers, it's very
obviously who's a better point guard? You know what I'm saying,
(16:17):
Magic is a better point guard. You feel me? So
I think this could have been a residual, like you
know what I'm saying, where like you know of what
Steph said, we're like, okay, okay, y'all got.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
A tweaking do you remember the fuck I am?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
And then this and then like saying this shit on
some like Matt MJ was the only like nigga, look
at the resume, my nigga, look at you know what
I'm saying look at how I and also look at
how I played, not just the resume, because he could
have been good amongst bombs. This nigga was a great
basketball player, you know what I'm saying. He played the
position in the way we had never seen anybody play
the position before him.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
You feel me? So I don't, don't. I mean? I
mean this is I feel like he doesn't get the
love he deserves.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
And maybe at this point he's seeing that, Like, Yo, man,
y'all forget who the fuck I really am?
Speaker 1 (16:55):
I was really him, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So I get it, man, I mean, but I do
feel like didn say like he didn't say it with his.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Nuts, you know what I mean, he did, you know?
Speaker 2 (17:03):
He he just was like making a flip and comment
and magines like, I'm not the nigga to be flipping
with be flipping with these other motherfuckers, But.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Don't play with my name. You feel me, and I
respect that, you know what I mean?
Speaker 6 (17:14):
I feel like Magic Johnson and Larry Bird both have
gotten just consistently underrated over the in the last five
to ten years, as Steph has been amazing and Kevin
Durant has been amazing, everyone's like, oh, those two guys
are this generation's version of Magic and Bird and there,
and everyone's saying they're better or a lot of people
are saying they're better and liked. Right, sure, But even so,
like Larry Larry Bird, Larry Bird was taught was either
(17:37):
first or second in MVP six straight seasons.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
He six career got I think the.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
Seasons and that when he was created for him, was
he basically when Sho did and had fifty forty ninety
seasons multiple of them, like he was he won three
straight MVPs. Like there's a lot of these guys from
that era I feel like are getting underrated because it
doesn't because the skill and the athleticism is so high.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Now, well, I think there's a there's a couple other things.
One is Magic in particular suffers from being famous at
a lot of things at this point. I mean, he's
just I think to the average younger person, he's as
famous for being a business person or basketball.
Speaker 1 (18:18):
Snoop basically right, one hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
And I think it's a very similar thing where like,
you know, you talk to kids in middle school and stuff,
do they know how raw early Snoop was is a rapper. No,
he's a he's a tootemic symbol of a genre of
things or something. I think you hit that on the head.
But it's it's it's interesting you bring up Snoop because
I was gonna say, I think this Anthony Edwards thing
(18:41):
reminds me very much of when Vince Staples, where people
were upset at Vince for oh, you're you're supposed to
be a rapper, but you don't understand the true legacy
of Tupac or you know, rappers from the eighties or something,
and Vince Staples is a response was like, I'm young,
I'm not an old fucking person like you, And like,
I think it's it's something very similar with aunt, like
(19:05):
Michael Jordan, we think of still as a recent era
of basketball. Michael Jordan's career was over when Anthony Edwards
was born. Matt him talking about Michael Jordan would be
the same as us talking about basketball players born in
the early nineteen fifties when we were kids. So like,
it's but because of the continuity of the media narratives
(19:27):
and the goat versus whatever, you expect there to be
this like familiarity. But it's like, why would he know
about basketball in the eighties, you know, like I don't.
You don't expect people to really sit down and become student.
I don't expect young people to sit down and become
students when we're making them multi millionaires when they're eighteen.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
You know.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Also, the game has changed so much, you know what
I mean, Like what is he really gain by going
and watching these games?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
Turning?
Speaker 2 (19:52):
There's certain players in like you could take a piece
of a game, you know what I'm saying, But the
game has changed so much so it's not as as
relevant Like a these basketball if I'm gonna sit down
and like be a student of that for what, You're
not gonna take much of that game, of that of
that you know era and bring it into this era
of basketball.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
It's just so different now.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
And I also think that in these basketball discussions, too
much of a premium is placed on athleticism. I think
that you can for sure probably make the case that MJ.
Woods perhaps the most athletic player in the league during
his era, the best mid era, just what we've ever
seen in the sport, right, Just a phenomenal athlete. But bro,
like you're like you are playing in today's NBA when
(20:33):
two of the three best players in the world are
some chubby dudes from Eastern Europe with lunch lady arms, like, like, like,
we put way too much of a premium on athleticism.
If you can play basketball, you can play basketball, bro.
Like That's why I never bought into those knocks that
that Magic and Larry Bird weren't super athletes and they
want to thrive in today's era. No if, because I
think that's the reason why they would thrive in today's era,
(20:53):
because they've got that fucking supercomputer brain, a basketball brain
where where they can work past those limitations.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
Right.
Speaker 3 (20:59):
Like, Like I said, if you see Jokic and fucking
Luke out here killing, why wouldn't you think Magic and
Bird would kill?
Speaker 4 (21:05):
You?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
Don't think Magic would be considered an athlete this I mean,
like not Magic in the eighties, But Magic in the
eighties was an athlete, you know what I'm saying, Like
Paul he was.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
He didn't magic, bro.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
He didn't have the dal athleticism that you expect people
now to have.
Speaker 2 (21:20):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I think what I'm saying, but
that but that's what he's saying.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
That era was. In that era, he wasn't considered athletic.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
No, he was considered an anomaly does a six to
nine point card, But no, no considered I'm a super athlete.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
No, I know he I mean he wasn't dominique or nothing.
But yeah, but I.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
Think the the I don't know all this this stuff
always happens on the cross generational thing. It is what
it is. But yeah, like Magic and Bird, I think
kids now feel like Michael Jordan invented the NBA and
it's like, well, Magic and Bird are the one that
everyone got paid off Magic, right, you know what I mean.
So I don't know, I don't hold it against I think.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Both of them will be exactly who they were there
in this era.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Yeah, I think those are the when you get to
the top ten all time, top fifteen, I don't think
era matters, you know what I'm saying. I think we're
talking about guys that are in the you know what
I'm saying. Like, you know, I feel like if there
was a league above the league, they'd be good at
that league, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (22:17):
Like, so I just feel like when we get to yeah,
I just.
Speaker 4 (22:20):
But that's that's like like when people when people are like, Oh,
they couldn't shoot the three. It's like they didn't shoot
the three because they were practicing shooting the three. But
they were they got they were the best in the
world at the thing.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
Ever, what was available to Yeah, yeah, you feel like I.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Just have to assume, like are use Sho Heo Tani. Currently,
as an example, show Hay is the best, like one
of the best power hitters and best pitchers in the league.
He can't pitch this year. I think he's still in
nineteen bases last year. This year he's okay, I can't pitch.
I'm gonna become the best base steeler in baseball. And
he you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (22:52):
He went from wait, is he really cold like that
on the base path?
Speaker 6 (22:56):
Yes, he is a forty forty season currently he is
the fifth ever.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
Em will be forty forty season, and he did it
thirty games faster than anyone else has ever done. He's
gonna be probably almost certainly the first forty five forty
five home runs and stolen base guy ever. But John
he didn't work on stealing bases until this year. He
like he stole last year six foot six.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I think, and he's stealing fucking yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:19):
But that, but my plassner bros. One on one. Yeah,
you know what I'm saying like that, but.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
My but my point was stealing bases at sixty six.
Speaker 4 (23:31):
But my point being, if he decided to go be
the best third baseman in the world next year, he'd
probably be able to do it because he's like and
so it's similar to these dudes where you say, oh,
he couldn't shoot the three, he goes, well, because he
wasn't working on shooting the three in nineteen seventy or
whatever the fuck? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (23:46):
Anyway, all right, nigga, why did you send me this information? Mike?
Speaker 4 (23:51):
I texted chat about it?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Did Oh I didn't see the group chat? Oh man,
you see the baseball shit individually? Damn No, I texted the.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
Group chat because if he's the fifth ever forty forty,
everyone else who did it did it in like one
hundred and forty five to one hundred and sixty games,
he did it in one hundred and twenty. And if
you look at it, I think three of the two
of the four guys that had done it before him
were like lab freak steroid users. So you know what
(24:19):
I mean? And I saw it. It's interesting because the
people of the allegiance to Barry Bonds, which I understands,
People's like.
Speaker 1 (24:25):
Didn't do it, he did do it?
Speaker 10 (24:26):
Do it?
Speaker 1 (24:27):
Okay, okay, he did it with the Pirates.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Giants, the Giants, Okay, you know, but people are like, oh, congrats,
show Hey, now has Barry Bonds's eleventh best season?
Speaker 2 (24:35):
No?
Speaker 4 (24:35):
No, no, no, show Hey. One hundred and twenty games
into this season, has Barry Bonds's eleventh best season? You
know what I mean? He's got another forty games where
he could do so and his fortieth home run was
a walk off Grand Slam.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
He's fucking different. Anyway.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Let's talk about speaking of the changing of the guard
in hoops Cooper Flag Savior.
Speaker 9 (24:59):
Hey, Yah, in my nut, Bro, I'll be selling it, bro,
like nigga, I'm telling you for you want to have the.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Dude, I don't, it'd be it'd be at least seven
figures per shot. He's a god.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
He's a God's nigga. Good and good luck if it
work or not. You know what I'm saying, Like, that's
your body, not mine. Obviously, you feel.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Me because I am not human. He's a DEMI.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
God, Bro, I'm telling you you want to at minimum,
At minimum, the athlete is gonna be a professional athlete, right,
you know what I'm saying, at minimum will be a
pro athlete.
Speaker 1 (25:41):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying, Like, come on, is
that legal?
Speaker 2 (25:46):
I would find out if I would show Hey, I'd
be looking at it. I've been looking up you. I
would have that information on hand for you if I
was with that nigga right now. For sure, I'm only
five or eleven. I'm a regular nigga, so I don't
need to know that information. But I would show Hey,
I get Garanteoa. Has somebody looked that shit up? For sure?
Speaker 10 (26:02):
Bro?
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Hey, No, I don't know that anyone in America is
more famous than shohe Atani is in Japan. We went
to the Japanese grocery store we go to in Torrents
and if there's he's, he's on eighteen different products. And
then they get such big viewership in Japan that half
of the ads in Dodger Stadium are in Japanese.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
This is nineteen famous, yeah, twenty twenty four in Japan.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
Yeah right, But like our friend who our friend who
works in Japan said it's like, you know, the games
are on a weird times. Obviously, they said when show
he's batting, people would like the TV's on for every
Dodger game in every corporate boardroom in Japan when he's batting,
everyone just stops talking and watches, and then when it's
(26:46):
over they just resume.
Speaker 2 (26:48):
Can you I would I would love to just witness that,
you know what I'm saying without and without knowing it's
a thing, right and seeing everybody stop just like without
knowing it's coming.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah, that'd be crazy.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
Speaking of the changing of the guard in hoops, Cooper
Flag signed with New Balance this week. Gentlemen, this is
a very different world than we grew up in for
young basketball fans at this point, was that kind of
a oh I'm an old motherfucker moment? Or how did
you feel about, you know, the next guy going to
a company like New Balance?
Speaker 3 (27:24):
I mean, New Balance has been trying to make ways
in the in the athletic sneaker department. I will just
always be them as like a running shoe company and
a casual shoe company. I don't know if I'll ever
really view them as a hoops shoe company. I know,
Kawhi was kind of like their first really big signing.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
But I don't know. I mean, I can't Cooper Flag
might know his demographic.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
I'm sure there's a lot of New Balance where is
that support Cooper Flag, So that might be a good
business move there.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
I was like, there's some people that are connected the
New Balance that I think are really dope and they
do it like Drake Collaborations, Joe Fresh Gooods. There's a
lot of cool people. I think the dude from AOD
is the creative director there. Uh so like they, I
mean as far as a brand, Action Bronson has a
collaboration with them. As far as a brand, I think
(28:12):
that's one of the cooler brands out right now. You
feel me, Like as far as a hoop shoe, I
remember this. I played with a nigga named Amn that
were New Balances and he was clowning the fuck out
his ass in high school, Like.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Nigga, you have new I didn't know they made hoop shoes,
but this ain't that time here.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
You feel what I'm saying, Like Nigga, I know they
had them shits, and you know where do you buy
the motherfucker? Said Big Five Nigga but uh, I thought
I saw them ships was was was fake? But uh
but yeah, gee, like I'm not I'm not too mad
at it. I'm not too mad because I feel like
a lot of the things that are going on with
New Balances are really dope, and I feel like a
lot of the athletic companies, you know, a lot of
(28:48):
the collaborations ain't hitting like that. One of my favorite
collabor collaborations this year is with secone was the Socony.
But I would Sayoni just often for the culture. Well
you know what I'm saying, Yeah, yeah, yeah, Nigga says
the coone you feel me? Yeah, but these names Jay Tips,
he had a.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
Dope ass collaboration.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
So a lot of my favorite collaborations are always sneaker
companies that aren't the ones that we grew up.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
Like if it wasn't Nike, it's over with, you know
what I'm saying, Like fuck me or Jordan or whatever.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
But Dan Jordan, I think I think Jordan's on the
way to do some cool things that they have in
the past.
Speaker 1 (29:23):
But yeah, for the most part.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
I think you talked about what New Balance has going on.
Tyler talked about what Cooper Flag has going on. My
take on it is I think it says a lot
about what Nike does not have going on right now.
Because Cooper Flag was an eyb ok, he was a
Nike kid. Oh, he was a Nike kid, and so
they signed, you know, for the history of their company.
We take it for granted, but there was a couple
of key employees that they had who were making sure
(29:47):
that that pipeline existed from someone staying in touch with
you from Nike from the time they first saw you
when you were fourteen until it was time to sign
a shoe deal. Nico Harrison is running, is it the MAVs.
I believe Raveling's retired, so at least for the southern
California guys, those were always the dudes that were like
the business card that stayed in the wallet, right right,
(30:09):
right right, So, and I think it's just kind of
this happens to companies. You take some things for granted.
I've been on the Nike campus. It's you've never seen
any shit like that before. They have Tiger Woods buildings
that are like it's a museum. But you get big
enough and you can kind of forget about we need
the you need the plug the one guy that's locking
(30:31):
up a sixteen year old and making sure mom and
dad know they could call him if they need anything
or whatever. And you know, I don't know. I think
they might need to to at the risk of upsetting
the resources, they might need to do some work to
make sure that that bridge still exists.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
I think, like.
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Outside of collaboration, because now he has a bunch of
collaborations too. I think now he got away from a
particular thing in marketing with your storytelling, you know what
I mean? Like, do you remember, like when you do
you remember the Jordan commercial for the Join Twelves when
he was driving through the lane he spun and dunked
the basketball.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Y y'all remember that commercial? Not really well, I nigga
that I remember, Okay.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Basically the commercial is the nigga drove to the to
the basket, he spinds in the lane, dunks the basketbatches Jordan.
Speaker 1 (31:16):
This for the like White and Black Twelves when they
first let us know they were dropping.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Right, and they're playing like some fucking uh like classical
music in the background and basically like everybody's watching the
TV like the world stopped and that's what it felt
like when MJ.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
When watching MJ, for me, like I didn't.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
Even think what else was going you feel what I'm saying,
And so like there was that you know what I'm saying.
The Jordan twenty when they got Spike Lee to tell
the story of MJ. You remember that shit he was
sitting on the stupe. You know, like there's like those
moments where are like I felt.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
Like they were moments.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
And I feel like Nike makes a lot of cool shit, bro,
you know what I'm saying, but it's not substitive in
the same way, you know what I mean. So I
feel like new balance of things they do. Like they're
allowing Joe fresh goods creating the way that Joe creates.
He's being a whole Chicago ass nigga under their flag,
you know what I'm saying, And so it feels very
genuine and authentic, and I think they've kind of got
(32:12):
away from that a little bit. And I feel like, yeah,
you can make really cool things that look beautiful, but
everybody's doing that.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
What are you gonna do to make shit stick?
Speaker 2 (32:19):
Like the shit they did with Schoolboy Q with Tiger
were that shit hit because it felt really genuine and authentic,
you know what I mean. They need to get back
to that if they're gonna keep you know, I mean,
you just can't, you know. I think that they're getting
away from that. As far as when it comes to marketing,
which is the things that really appeal to people.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Yeah, yeah, not keep been resting on their laurels for
a minute, dog, Like, I agree, their newest shit does
not move me at all. Like ninety percent of the
nikes I own are like Redtros like shit from the
nineties and shit, right, like.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
They've been relying on that shit too.
Speaker 3 (32:46):
Yeah, like like bro like, like like it should be
a fucking moment when the new bronze drop, when the
new Kd's drop, right, and like it was with the
Jordan's and shit with us and the Pennies with us
when we were kids.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
But it's just like, you know, I think basketball shoes
have gotten so basketballly. We're like, nigga, Like what was
cool about the Dion's and shit and the fucking Reggie
White and all that shit.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
Nigga?
Speaker 2 (33:12):
I could wear them shits with my clothes, you know
what I mean. So like, yeah, it was a great
shoot of hooping like you could. You could actually hoop
in it. I hooped in a third high school hoop
in Jordan's a great shoitt hooping, But I could also
wear Jordan's, you know what I'm saying. Like, and I
feel like they a lot of people have gotten away
from that type shit, you know what I mean? And
I feel like that, like look like Lebron's. It seems
(33:33):
like Lebron's are only can only be worn by Lebron, you.
Speaker 10 (33:37):
Know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (33:38):
Like you love talking about marketing, Yeah, I said, you
love talking about this stuff because I like.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
The creative side of it. I like the creative side
of it. I like when you're the the idea side
of the ship, you know what I'm saying. And like,
you know, I really think it's interesting when companies like
working at a particular company and y'all can deduce what
I'm talking about, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (33:58):
That was a big ass company that you know, lost
the sauce.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
You feel what I'm saying. I see how motherfuckers louse
the sauce to get comfortable, you know what I mean.
Like you said, resting on your laurels and you become
a huge company in a time perio where it's important
to be able to make our left turn very colick
and very hard, and if you're a big ass company,
it's very hard to do that with all this red tape.
And I think that's really interesting how companies make these
shifts and our companies get comfortable and then before you
(34:22):
know it, you know what I'm saying, Uh, Cooper Flagg
is signed a new Balance.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
And what I think is cool about new Balances shift
is that to your point about basketball shoes being so basketball,
Like I looked up who their other athletes are, not
just basketball but outside of basketball, and I don't know
if any of them have a signature shoe, but it's
more about the brand at large than a specific shoe, right.
They have Kawhi Leonard, who I think has a shoe,
but like outside of Jamal Murray, Tyrese Maxi, Cameron Brink Shoheo,
(34:47):
Tony Coco, gov, Sidney McLaughlin, Like that is a wide
reaching and that's.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
A biby and it's byby though it's the particular about
the people that are getting shoe.
Speaker 6 (34:57):
It's like the collection of talent that we have. It
is very very cool.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Exactly exactly.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
And also like a company that was really good at
that was a Didas until they fucked up with with Kanye.
But the Datas were leaning dope into the colt and
it really really far into the culture too, and they
started to do like they were they were making real
big waves with like like the off court off you know,
outside of like sports type shit, you know what I'm saying.
With the leisure ship, you know what I mean? And
I mean they got away from it, but yeah, I
(35:26):
feel like New Balances kind of took that and they
running with that ship.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Bro.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
But like I said, like like Jackson pointed out, these
people are not just like really good at sport.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
These are people you want to sit down and hang with,
you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
So they're being very intentional about the people that are
put putting you know, uh you know, uh the New
Balance on so like Tyree's Maxie come on gee, Like that's.
Speaker 3 (35:46):
It feels like like there for New Balance is very
very aware of their identity where they know their lifestyle
brand first and foremost, where people.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
You see what I was looking for a lifestyle club.
Speaker 3 (35:57):
Yeah that's what the was, you know, right, Like like
like I said, like like their whole shit to me
is running and and casual ship right, like, and running
is a lifestyle you know, casual ship, that's lifestyle ship too.
So they're leaning into into athletes who have, you know,
big personalities, athletes who people are interested in on a
personal level, like Cameron Brank you know show Hey, so yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
Good moves with that. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
So I mean, bro, like, I see, I see why
he would sign with it. I know, I know, like
it's it's for us and like also and I'm keeping
in the stack. Brock damn, that's she's gonna pick up crazy.
Speaker 1 (36:34):
Like Showler.
Speaker 12 (36:34):
Right, I thought you run, you rubbed one out of me, brother,
but uh but uh terminology, Yeah, I didn't want to.
I didn't want I wanted to use that.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
I want to be sus. But anyway, yeah, I feel
like at the point, what what what we're talking about?
Speaker 1 (36:52):
New new balance?
Speaker 4 (36:52):
Right?
Speaker 2 (36:52):
Yeah, I believe that's trying to thok talking talking sus
and I just fucking I.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Got brother too excited.
Speaker 4 (37:02):
Bro Well, I was say, just when Jackson brought that up,
I I googled to see what they spent on Otani
and the he's been signed with them for like two years.
And no one has leaked the figure, which is crazy,
but it was rumored to be more than he was
making with the Angels, apparently, and of a sizable enough
(37:23):
amount that that's why he was able to do the
deferred cash deal with the Dodgers. It was like, well,
they're already paying me thirty million a year or whatever
to wear.
Speaker 1 (37:32):
Shoes, so I remember the point.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
The point was if you look at a lot of
the motherfucking shoes people are wearing.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Out, Like I don't wear.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
The cool shit that I bought over the years, All
that shit sitting sitting in a crib like I bust
my A six. You feel me like Hella's those get
a lot of wear, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1 (37:48):
I was. I saw a chit get a fit off
in some sockies. I'm like, now do I want them? Motherfuckers?
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Shit's hardest shit, Like a lot of shit niggas is
wearing his cozy, comfortable shit and really getting off, getting
their issues off with that shit, you know what I'm saying. So,
I mean, it's it's kind of it's kind of the
market is kind of different right now, bro, Like you
just can't, you know, get a Travis Scott to do
a shoot with you or like a big name and
make sure that shits cracked crack. I feel like the uh,
(38:14):
the whole collaboration thing. If it's not super genuine, people
ain't really gonna trip off it no more, bro, you
know what I mean? Like, and also, people really are
really want comfortable, like you can't play about that shit,
you know what I'm saying. So that's a lot of
people are wearing new balance, a lot of people are
in a six. It looked like the DMV throughout the
fucking nation right now, nigga, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Shit all right.
Speaker 4 (38:37):
We got the news early this morning and had been
rumored for a couple of days. I don't know if
this will be of interest to literally anyone here besides me,
But did you guys hear that Oasis is getting back together?
Speaker 1 (38:49):
This shit like every other year is No, they haven't
played together in fifteen years.
Speaker 3 (38:53):
Bro, I mean I feel like they announced that shit
like I think this is the first we're announc it. Oh, Bro,
even know I have such a unique relationship like we
we we should I don't know if we should know
that two brothers hate each other as much as they do,
like that should be in house bro.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
Liam said, I used to love my mom until she
birthed Noel. That's a quote from Wow. That's great, But
it was like, I guess, and I'm not obviously I'm
I am an Oasis fan, but I do not follow
the paparazzi, tabloid shit or whatever. Apparently, over the last
six months they've started saying nice things about each other
(39:31):
and interviews for the first time in like a decade.
Tyler of like when I would write a song and
sing it, it would be good, but then Liam would
sing it and it would be the fucking best song
of all time. So it's like they've sort of started
warming up to each other. But yeah, they announced a
tour of England and the UK and then I think
they're coming to America for like four shows or something
(39:54):
like that. Are gonna be fucking insane, but I'm very excited.
First of all, all of this. First of all, anytime
you get stories with quotes by those two dudes about
each other, it's great because they're the most insane quotes
anyone's ever said about.
Speaker 3 (40:07):
A family hole battherfucker's legit fucking hate each other.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Dude, Liam said about a solo album of Nole's like
five years ago. It's an unsophisticated album from an unsophisticated.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
Man's that's that British shit talking right there too, Bro,
motherfucker probably SIPs some tea after he said that.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
Shit.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
God damn, but yeah, you know Oasis, man, it's just
I'm gonna get on.
Speaker 1 (40:34):
My old man shit, like, let's do it, baby, Yeah, Bro,
what's the story? Morning Glory? That's like the perfect nineties
alternative rock album. Dog.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
It's like like like it's an album that I feel
like has two fucking first Ballot Hall of Fame karaoke
songs on there with Wonderwall and Champagne Supers, and it
was like the fourth and sixth single right right. Yeah,
it was like like I remember the buzz around Oasis
and it wasn't even hyperbole like Gradi's saying that they
were like this is the second coming of the Beatles,
(41:02):
Like that's how big Oasis was during their running their nineties.
So so yeah, man, they hold a special place in
my heart back when fucking rock was actually like just genre,
right when it was a genre, when it was a
big fucking deal, When when you would just turn your
TV on the MTV and let it rode and and
you got hit to some new rock shit that you
(41:24):
never heard of, you what you fucked with and shit
like like yeah, man, Oasis is just they hold a
very special place in my heart as like like a
quintessential nineties rock band and like a quintessential like MTV
era band too.
Speaker 4 (41:36):
Yeah, I'm with you one hundred percent. What's the story
in Morning Glory is one of my I would guarantee
you one of the ten most listened to albums of
my It's like a go to if I feel like
shit but I need to go work out or I
need to like pick myself. It's been a go to
album for like twenty years or something for me. But
I think there's also something to me that's exciting about
the timing of so many so much shit we liked
(41:59):
in the nineties has come back and sucked.
Speaker 1 (42:02):
Do you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
Like, I've been a huge Pixies fan for twenty five years,
thirty years, whatever. I've gone to see some picture shows
with Fat Frank blackbro Like, I've still loved the pictures.
It was cool to be there, but it's not the
you know what I mean, Like you're not seeing what
you remember from being a kid or whatever. So the
fact that they took basically Obama got in office, they said,
everyone's in a good mood and then they just went
(42:26):
into a hole. We just haven't seen shit like from
him over the last fifty years, So I don't know.
Hopefully it works out, I don't know what the chances
are they make it. They still are a band by
the time they get to America, Yeah, just a relic
from a bygone era.
Speaker 3 (42:43):
I feel like streaming killed the rock group, where there's
just not enough money in that shit to cut the
pie four five ways anymore. I think streaming killed the
rap group, killed the rock group, killed the R and
B group. I think it just killed the music group period. Yeah,
And like I said, I do miss you know how
it felt in the nineties was a big fucking deal.
Speaker 1 (43:01):
Yeah, and always was like at the center of that
ship for a few years.
Speaker 4 (43:05):
I can never keep the brothers straight. But one of
them literally said that Tyler I saw an interview with
him where he was making his own he was brewing
tea for himself, like during the interview British Man. But
he then he went off on a five minute ram.
I'm like, you want to know why kids want to
be podcasters and not rock stars anymore? He's like, because
I'm making my own fucking tea.
Speaker 1 (43:23):
He's in the nineties.
Speaker 4 (43:24):
We had a guy on staff who all he did
was make his tea. He was like, He's like, there
was so much money around that you would just pay
people to follow you around and provide you with tea
when you were ready for some tea. He's like, he say,
He's like, what sixteen year old boy wants to make
his own fucking tea?
Speaker 1 (43:42):
Hey, that's poetic as fucking god. Damn all right, Jackson.
Speaker 4 (43:47):
Do we have a couple of stuff the Olds to
round us out here on our Tuesday pod?
Speaker 1 (43:52):
We do have a Stumpy Old. We did? I did?
Speaker 2 (43:54):
Uh?
Speaker 6 (43:54):
I created a game within the stump the old game
this time, which is uh. I've been seeing a lot
of people talking about like new home decore trends, and
so what I've done is I found a list of
some from with like kind of funny names from a
website Men's journal or something like that, and so I'm
going to give you two at a time. One of
them is a real home decore like style that has
(44:17):
becomeing trendy, and one of them I've been made up,
and you've got to guess which one is the real
home to core trend Okay, first up, which of these
is real, quiet luxury or anti Gothic?
Speaker 1 (44:34):
Mm hmm. I'd say I'd say anti Gothic. I think
that's a that sounds like a real style. It sounds
made up, but I think that's why it's real.
Speaker 3 (44:45):
I'd say it's probably leaning on the definition of the
suffix anti, meaning like pre gothic and that opposed to Gothic.
Speaker 1 (44:54):
Oh, you know, early medieval type. Maybe that's the angle
I'm going with.
Speaker 4 (45:01):
I'm going quiet luxury. But I think you're reasoning is
sound that he would make up one that sounded fake,
He would make up one that sounded less fake than
the one he was doing.
Speaker 1 (45:10):
Yeah, that's the correct answer. Is quiet luxury. Quiet luxury
is real.
Speaker 6 (45:16):
It is apparently combined textures, limited prints, classic lighting, natural
materials and elements. You know exactly what it sounds like.
Speaker 4 (45:22):
This is our house. We have a we have a
mid century modernist influence quiet luxury statement going on.
Speaker 1 (45:29):
That's all right.
Speaker 6 (45:32):
Second one, which is real rich uncle chic or coastal grandma.
Speaker 4 (45:40):
Does both sound real to me? I could picture exactly
where both of those are exactly.
Speaker 1 (45:44):
Actually, I think I've actually seen coastal Grandma. Like, I
think there's rich uncle. Coastal grandma, Grandma? You think so rich?
She just seems like who's talking about their uncles? Nobody said,
I feel like like, if your uncle's rich, yeah, it
(46:04):
could be.
Speaker 2 (46:04):
It could be rich aunt, ti she If your uncle
is rich, she's probably across the globe. And do baidus
some ship that is unmitioned. I say coastal.
Speaker 1 (46:15):
Yeah, I'm leading with coastal gram.
Speaker 6 (46:17):
Coastal Grandma is correct, coast of Grandma is correct. One
a lot of floors and botanicals, contemporary wood uh needed,
earthy tones.
Speaker 4 (46:26):
Last, its my coastal grandma's house.
Speaker 6 (46:28):
It's your coast grandma's house exactly. Last one to break
the tie, which is which of these is real? I
did some alliteration here, dopamine design or serotonin stables.
Speaker 1 (46:42):
I'd say serotonin stables.
Speaker 3 (46:44):
The serotonin is like the soothing ship, right, I don't
think and dopamine is like the exhilarating ship. I don't
think anyone wants to be in an environment where you're
just exhilarated all the time.
Speaker 1 (46:53):
They both sound but I think serotonin.
Speaker 4 (46:55):
I'll go serotonin as well. Great brain chemistry analysis by Tyler.
Speaker 6 (47:01):
You are all wrong. It is dope mean design.
Speaker 1 (47:04):
What I feel like, I feel like it's like.
Speaker 4 (47:09):
It's I feel like it's based off a simplification of
what tier Tyler is correct.
Speaker 6 (47:14):
The idea is to celebrate self expression and personal style
in your home to court. So often is a little chaotic.
Speaker 1 (47:19):
People got like.
Speaker 6 (47:20):
Purple mirrors and ship like that colorful, big, big, colorful
state happy exactly exactly things. That's sort of like, explain
what what what?
Speaker 1 (47:30):
Why you're happy? When you're happy? What makes you happy
in your home to court?
Speaker 4 (47:33):
Did you see the pole? And I know you're a millennial,
so I'm not putting my finger at you as a
Gen Z person, but did you see the pole?
Speaker 7 (47:38):
That?
Speaker 3 (47:39):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (47:39):
That said Trump is more popular with males in Gen
Z than he is with the males in the Baby
boomer generation.
Speaker 1 (47:49):
That's weird.
Speaker 4 (47:50):
That's that's that was a start, And his numbers, like
his numbers in Gen X are better than his numbers
in the Baby boomer generation.
Speaker 3 (47:57):
To actually I feel like people are are have way
less talents for people who are full of ship, and
I think that.
Speaker 1 (48:03):
Might be a fact that I think.
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Also, I really think like him getting shot. I saw
this image from people posting like you know what I'm saying, like,
all right, bro, like what a fucking legend. Oh my god.
Speaker 6 (48:18):
I think some of that, like culture, yeah, contributing to that.
Speaker 2 (48:22):
See some of these meme accounts that are like you know, yeah, yeah,
really leaning in on him a little bit.
Speaker 6 (48:28):
So yeah, I think it's fair to say I stumped
the old stuff you did.
Speaker 2 (48:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we were one for three, we were
all one. I should have went with my gut the
first time I thought you were trying to trick me.
Speaker 4 (48:39):
You did the See that's the my son's wanted me
to break. It's the it's the it's a gay kid thing.
Go with your first instinct, Go with your first don't
sit there and overthink it. You'll convince yourself of every.
Speaker 1 (48:53):
Time I tied myself in a fucking knot.
Speaker 6 (48:55):
Bro.
Speaker 4 (48:58):
All right, that's all the time we got. We will
be back. I'm so excited for Thursday. We have the
first Jenkins and Jones Bowl between Tyler and Jackson University
of Miami versus USC. I've done my pre game visit
with USC. I'm scouted out, I got my storylines. I'll
tell you there's a key injury in South Central that
(49:21):
we've got a little concern over right now, but I
think we'll be good for Thursday. I still need to
visit Miami and get my storylines up, so John and
I could bring you the most professional broadcast possible news.
Speaker 3 (49:34):
Van GUARDI with a hard hitting journalism, Babe, That's what
they famed the Big Bugs for.
Speaker 6 (49:39):
Do you want to tease our halftime guests?
Speaker 4 (49:41):
Do you want to leave it a surprise?
Speaker 2 (49:45):
No?
Speaker 1 (49:45):
No, no, no, just give it. Yeah, let's put it out.
Speaker 3 (49:48):
Well, we are going to have who I think is
the best fucking mind in college football journalism joining us,
and that's Spencer Hall.
Speaker 1 (49:57):
So he's gonna be our special halftime guess.
Speaker 4 (50:00):
And we're not gonna let him talk about actual college
football at all, only analysis of the video.
Speaker 1 (50:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (50:07):
I'm afraid he's gonna turn me. He's gonna call me
Cliff Kingsbury. It's gonna be bad.
Speaker 1 (50:11):
I don't want I don't want that title. I don't
want that title.
Speaker 4 (50:14):
Actually, that'll be a good topic of conversation for John
and I is which USC or Miami coach are you
both resembling the most.
Speaker 2 (50:22):
Worried about the Cliff Kingsbury era.
Speaker 4 (50:26):
All right, that's all the time we got. We'll see
y'all Thursday at eleven a m. West Coast, two pm
East Coast for the Genis and Jones Bowl. By the
