00:00:44:05 - 00:01:05:05

Speaker 2

And then later on, I find that, oh, I could be sued. So I said I was like, at this point, nobody knows me.

00:01:05:05 - 00:01:17:13

Speaker 1

So you know what? Yeah, you do it and ask her forgiveness, You know what I'm saying? I mean, you know, I got a feeling Cardi B as much bigger fish to fry. But you know what? Say, you know what? If she goes after, you could turn it into content.

00:01:17:20 - 00:01:20:24

Speaker 2

And that's what I was going to say. There would be some good content.

00:01:20:29 - 00:01:26:02

Speaker 1

That would be something that would be some awesome content. Yeah. Then you'd have some real shit to talk about.
