Thaddeus Shade opens up about his five-year vegan journey—how it started as a bet, why people still don’t believe him, and the real benefits he’s seen. He gets candid about phone addiction and the burnout that comes with always being online for work. From Phoenix’s tourist boom to a Mission Impossible mini-review, it’s full throttle as Shade closes with a no-filter breakdown of the NBA Playoffs and why the Timberwolves’ collapse was “mayo on a PB&J.”

But they all talented, they allplay hard.
They're young.
Caruso's a vet, you know,harnstein's a little bit of a
(04:09):

I did some other things onthere, but I put the 25 on Ant
(04:55):
because he Ant man.
I saw something this morningthat said he, the Can't man,
shit.
I had to watch fucking Sheashoot jump shots with a straight
face.
No excitement.
Do interviews with his wholeteam.
No excitement, no flair, nohistory, no history.
(05:22):
And then I got a, which I thinkis going to happen, which I
think the Pacers end up beatingthe Knicks tonight because
obviously looks like Cat's notgoing to play.
Cat's not going to play.
It's really over now.
(05:43):
Watch OKC and Indiana Pacers,it's like a nightmare.
So Freddy Cougars creating anightmare for me.
He's like, oh shit, I'm puttingNia Long in your nightmare.
I said, oh shit, you're puttingNia Long.
That's not a nightmare, that'sa dream.
He said hold on, I'm not done,I'm putting Nia Long in your
(06:04):
nightmare.
And she ain't got no arms, sheain't got no legs, she got one
eye eye patch.
I said, well, that's fucked up,man, that's a nightmare.
He said, but I'm not done.
He said, I'm not done, I'mgonna take kelly kapowski from
the early 90s, I'm gonna put herin there too.
She will have the same thing noarm, no leg, one eye with an
eye patch.
I said now see, now, this isjust totally wrong, it's totally
(06:27):
fucked up.
This is a nightmare.
He said, but I'm not done, I'mputting J-Lo in there and J-Lo
gonna be in the corner.
She's gonna be doing theTootsie Roll the whole time.
So you fucking around, man,that's not cool and that's what
I'm going to have to watch atthe NBA Finals.
Man, shit, that's not cool andit's going to be boring and it's
a fucking nightmare, man, andI'm not watching that shit.
Man, I'm not watching that shitman.
(06:51):
And I got to be quiet becauseI'm listening for a package from
FedEx, because I ordered someperfume and it's coming from
South Korea and they're supposedto be getting delivered today.
I know I'm fly.
I ordered some shit from SouthKorea.
Y'all don't order shit fromSouth Korea.
It ain't from North Korea, itain't from Kim Jong and the boys
, it's from South Korea.
The place is all right.
I think it's safe for me toorder some shit without
(07:13):
potentially getting some poisonin it.
I ordered it from South Korea.
It's supposed to be here today.
I'm waiting on FedEx Monday.
I think I ordered it Monday,tuesday, tuesday, right, I
ordered it Tuesday and it's here.
So it's shocking because I canorder shit in the States and
won't get it from UPS.
Usps order it on Tuesday, won'tget it till next Wednesday.
(07:33):
That's the skill.
But FedEx South Korea, shit'sgoing to be here about today.
I'm amazed and blown away thata guy packing in South Korea is
going to be here.
But I ordered in the States.
Shit won't be here until nextWednesday.
Shit's crazy.
But nobody's happy about thatshit.
Nobody wants to fucking watchthat NBA Finals man, even Adam
(07:55):
Silver, the commissioner of theNBA, tch, tch.
You know what I'm saying.
He feel me know what it is.
But anyway, this is Daddy Shay.
You're listening to SeasonableClout, fucking Weak ass.
(08:20):
Nba Finals is coming up, butbasketball is still basketball.
Like I said, I'm still.
I'm going to take a peek.
There's going to be some times.
I'm going to watch some minutesthroughout the game Because I'm
chilling.
I'm going to see what's goingon.
Now they give me some good boxoffice scores or some close
games, about two close games.
I might you know what I'msaying.
I might, but I doubt I will.
(08:44):
I expect it to be slow and lowscoring.
Hmm, mm-hmm, but I doubt I will.
I expect it to be slow and lowscoring and blah, blah, blah.
Anyway, you know what'sinteresting to me is I've been
vegan now for five years.
I've talked about this multipletimes in different episodes and
just being vegan doesn't makeme special.
I'm not better than anybody.
You know what I'm saying.
I'm not better than nobodybeing vegan.
(09:04):
Do I hold my head up like I ambetter than everybody?
A little bit because I am vegan, but I don't think that I'm in
my head.
I don't think that I'm betterthan you.
I don't think that that's nothow I roll right, been vegan
five years but it never fails to.
(09:28):
You know people.
You know I do a taco tuesday,right, I'm, remember, I'm a
promoter.
I do a taco tuesday, I do awing wednesday.
And so people come to therestaurant and they're hanging
out with me.
They'll ask me hey, what'swhat's good on the menu?
Right, taco tuesdays at wellseasoned restaurants, costa,
arizona I guess I gotta do thatbecause I got a puppet, right.
Maybe somebody listening.
They want to come in town, youwell seasonedseasoned Scottsdale
, arizona, soul food, bunch ofshit, right.
And they'll ask me hey, man,what tacos are good?
(09:52):
And I'm like I don't know, man,I'm vegan, I don't eat here.
But I mean I've heard this taco, the chicken and the salad, you
know, I've heard, right.
And then we have a soul fish, asoul food taco with greens and
macaroni and catfish, right.
So I've heard these things aregood, they be like.
But they don't listen.
Once I say that I'm vegan,everything else is out the
(10:14):
window.
They don't listen to shit else.
Oh, negro, you're vegan.
Get a load of this guy here.
He's a black vegan, a blackvegan.
There's no way.
It's no way.
(10:34):
It's like finding out that aleprechaun writes Trump's
speeches.
There's no way.
Maybe a leprechaun does.
Maybe there's like a littlesmall leprechaun somewhere in
the White House who just gigglesabout, who skips around in the
White House and he takes five to10 minutes out of his day to
(10:55):
write Trump's speeches and thenhe hands them over to one of his
people and he runs off gigglingand he go, finds his own pot of
gold that he hid somewhere.
He knows exactly where he hidit, but he just goes off into an
adventure inside the WhiteHouse, giggling, skipping and
dancing, and he finds his pot ofgold and he sleeps in it till
the next day.
Then he wakes back up and hedoes the same thing again.
(11:16):
Maybe that's, maybe that's whowrites Trump's speeches.
You know, maybe, maybe, but I'msorry, but people don't.
They lose focus because they'relike oh shit, you're vegan.
(11:41):
And I'm like, yeah, I'm vegan.
Like, are you serious?
People always double down, areyou serious?
I'm like, yeah, I'm vegan.
Like, are you serious?
People always double down, youserious?
I'm like yeah, I'm vegan man.
So I don't know what to gethere, but it doesn't matter, I
don't care about what yourecommend.
Let's dive into your veganismsome more.
And I'm like well, I don't do itfor the animals.
You know what I'm saying.
Y'all good, if I need to goahead and kill them to eat, go
(12:03):
ahead and eat.
I understand I don't do it foranimals.
I do it just for my body andhow I want to live and how I
want to feel and what I think isbest for me, right?
I don't do it for the animals.
So if you got to go out thereand you got to pop Bambi's
mother for some deer meat,that's what you got to do and I
don't say do that.
You know what I?
And if you know that that'sBambi's mama, I wouldn't say
(12:23):
shoot it.
But if there's another deernext to her, named Cheryl, you
can shoot Cheryl.
I would prefer you to shootCheryl than you can do your
thing and eat some deer meat ifyou want.
I don't, I ain't for theanimals when they come to me.
I just do it for my body andwhat's good, what I think is
good for me, right.
But people, they really areconfused by it.
(12:45):
A Negro, vegan and five yearsand I remember Craig Visions but
he was a roommate at the timebusting out of his room talking
about hey man, why don't you dothis seven-day challenge with me
?
Because he's watching somedocumentary on Netflix and
(13:09):
that'll do that.
And I'm like, all right, coolman.
No, I don't think I can do it.
I didn't think I could do it,so, no, I'm not going to do it.
And he was like, come on, man,let's do it.
And then he told me, like abenefit he said it'd make your
dick harder.
I know you ain't supposed tosay that between two men.
(13:30):
I prefer he had emailed it orhad texted it.
Now the text is a little, emailis a little bit more
professional.
So if you were to email thatinformation and then at the very
bottom say, hey, eat vegan thisway, make your dick harder, I
say, oh shit, that's where I'msold at.
But he was, it was aconversation in the kitchen and
it might've been some jazzplaying in the background.
(13:50):
That's a little weird and thatwasn't a good time to say that.
But I understood what he wastelling me so I accepted.
I said, oh shit, you got mesold Seven days.
Let's run, let's see whathappens.
You know, and because men doanything for the dick to perform
fantastically, you'll doanything for that motherfucker.
Listen, the right amount ofdoctors come out and say man, if
(14:14):
you do this, not only will yourdick grow, you will last longer
, you'll be harder, and then allthe men will like, lean in,
like, oh shit, what you got todo.
And they'd be like you got togo find bigfoot.
Nigga and the whole world ofmen, just go try to find bigfoot
(14:36):
, because they find out.
If you find bigfoot and you rubhis back, all of a sudden your
shit is stronger, longer and youcan.
You know you good to go, butthat's how it is.
So he came to me, told methat's all right is so.
He came to me and told me and Isaid, all right, seven days,
vegan, fuck it.
It wasn't even about the healthat the time.
It wasn't about my jointsfeeling better or my skin being
clearer or even my body odorsmelling different.
At the time, it was just aboutfuck it.
He said something about my dickbeing harder.
(14:57):
I'm going to do it.
I did it Seven days.
I did it Seven days, man, andit was difficult, it was
difficult, it was very difficult.
(15:18):
I'm not playing man.
It was real difficult.
I didn't think I was going tomake it.
I was used to eating, eatinglike shit, not you know shit.
You know, even if I was, youknow, I think at the time I was
(15:38):
listen still in the gym.
I'm just saying at the time Iwas heavy in the gym, right.
I was doing my thangs, eatingchicken steak and shit and now
burgers and shit and, you know,occasionally some shakes and
shit and some fries and shit.
So I was eating some shit,right, I was accustomed to
eating that type of shit and itwasn't like a slow roll.
We didn't.
We didn't wean, what's that?
(15:59):
Is it wean, wane, weanourselves over that, whatever
the word.
You know what I'm saying.
We didn't do that, we just wentcold turkey.
We just said, fuck it, we'regoing to do it for seven days.
We did it for seven days andthen I realized, as I was going
through this very difficultseven day process by like the
actual like sixth day, I waslike, oh shit, I'm like one day
away from doing this, likefinishing it.
(16:20):
I was like, okay, cool man.
And then the seventh day, youknow.
And I was like, okay, cool man.
And then the seventh day, youknow, we got through it.
And on the eighth day we wastalking and like early in the
morning I was like you want todo it again for another seven
days I said, all right, fuck it.
I mean, you know, wasn't noimmediate, there wasn't no
crazy-ass results for me.
You know what I'm saying, I'm areal G Wasn't no crazy-ass
(16:45):
results for me.
Now, after that second week,whoo-wee I got to give you that
old man down south whoo-wee,whoo-wee man.
My system was processing stuffdifferent.
I was shitting, I was, you know, the energy was up, my joints
was feeling different.
These are just small thingsthat I had noticed immediately,
(17:06):
right.
And then, man, 60 days in, Iwas like, officially sold,
probably wasn't even 60.
It's probably like a good monthin.
I was like, yeah, I'll never goback to meat eating.
Nothing was heavy again.
You know, my poopity poopsmelled different.
(17:44):
You know, it was just.
Even my gym sweat smelleddifferent.
That's crazy, right.
My breath smelled different.
Everything was just differentand it was for the good.
So I was like, all right, f it.
And you know, you know, asyou're doing it, you got to, of
course, do more research and I'mnot a great cooker, I'm a
professional microwave pusher,like button pusher.
You put me in front of microwaveand I can turn that shit into
one of the best pornographicthings ever in life.
I can tell you I can make thatshit look sexy, lexi.
(18:04):
Three minutes, three minutes.
I don't just hit three, I don'tlike to just hit three.
I like to make it dramatic.
I like to hit three, zero, zero, and then I spin, I holler and
then I hit the start button.
I watch my shit rotate Threeminutes.
I don't play about my microwaveskills.
I ain't a great cook.
I eat to survive.
I can't.
(18:25):
I have no skills in the kitchen.
I love watching people makefood.
I love watching people makefood, but I can't do it.
So I stick to the basics and,you know, a little something in
the pan every now and then, youknow, sometimes I'll do
spaghetti and I, you know, Ifeel very, very Italian.
(18:47):
It ain't Italian.
You know what I'm saying.
I just feel it.
Sometimes I do a little worklike that and sometimes I do
take risks and I try to putsomething together that me and
Chad GPT put together and itdon't come out the way it's
supposed to.
I'm sure if Chad GPT was anactual robot that was standing
next to me, he would just belike I'm disappointed, nigga,
(19:07):
and then I would be ashamed andI would never try to cook again.
But I don't push my veganism onto nobody.
If you want to be vegan, bevegan.
But I don't ever push it.
But people be so blown away andthey ask so many questions about
it.
Now I feel like I'm overtalking about it and I'm trying
to put you on.
And people hear me talk aboutit Now they're like, oh, don't
be trying to put him, I'm goingto try to push your vegan on
(19:29):
somebody.
I ain't do that.
He asked me about it.
I'm just trying to share myresults.
He asked me about my veganism.
I'm just trying to share myresults.
Come over here.
I don't do that shit.
I don't knock on people's doorsat six o'clock in the morning.
Are you prepared to be a vegan?
I don't do that shit.
I ain't a Jehovah's Witness.
(19:50):
I don't be out here with bagsand pamphlets of shit trying to
sell people on vegan.
That's not what I do.
It's not what I do.
Hold on, let me get a sip.

dairy in it, winston's justgoing to have to suffer then,
because I'm going to let it outof my ass, but I'm going to
drink that coffee Because ifit's good, I'm going to get it

of massive travel centers thathas garnered a cult-like
following for transforming atypical gas station experience
(30:25):
into a full-blown, a wide arrayof merchandise featuring its
beaver mascot.
Huh, it's coming to Arizona.

Goodyear, so it opens June 2026next year.

As much as people talk aboutPhoenix, it ain't like that.

God, it was crazy.
Memorial Day weekend Last yearwasn't the same.
It wasn't like that.
It didn't feel as busy.
This year.
You could definitely feel.
Folks got a little money andcame on out here, you know, and
(32:41):
it was nice to see.
It was really nice to see.
Now I'm going to talk aboutsomething and I'm pivoting.
You know I'm pivoting and I doa lot of work on my phone, right
, everything I do is on my phone.
It's how I make my money.
I'm on social media on my phone.
(33:01):
It's how I make my money.
I'm on social media all thetime.
It's how I eat, it's how I feedmy dog, it's how I feed me All
through the phone, which isfantastic, because I never
thought that would be possibleJust for me to eat from my phone
, right.
But there's like a big negativeto it.
(33:22):
It's hard for me to not to liketo like zone in on my shows.
Now I noticed that it's hardfor me to zone in on my shows,
even when I'm in the movies.
And those are my things, like,I love watching my TV shows, I
love watching.
You know, going to the moviesor watching classic movies,
those are my things.
(33:42):
Even then I can feel the urge,just a weird urge in my hand and
just in my body, just to pickup my phone and check.
You know they call it anincreased anxiety and FOMO.
I guess you get increasedanxiety and the FOMO, the fear
of missing out.
These are things I had to learnfrom the young youth.
I didn't know what FOMO was atfirst.
(34:03):
A long time ago I was like whatthe fuck is FOMO?
And I had to look it up, I hadto Google it.
I don't feel good aboutGoogling shit.
When I had to look up ASL, Ididn't feel good about that.
That's not cool, it's notfantastic, it's not jiggy, you
know.
But I did and I could tell thatI had I do.
(34:28):
I was like damn man.
The minute, even in my owncareer, I'd be like, oh shit,
where my phone at I don't knowwhere I put it at, you know what
I'm saying?
And I'd be like, oh shit, it'sright here, it's tucked under
some covers.
Oh shit, it's right here, it'stucking in some covers.
The panic happens.
It's a real panic and it sucksbecause I'm so on it that I
(34:51):
could be on a phone conversationand I have to tell the person
hold on.
I got to like, post this up, orI got to do this, or I got to
do that.
I'm always on my phone and I'mafraid that I won't be able to
break it.
Do you know what that feelslike to know?
You have this issue and you'dbe like I don't think I'm going
to be able to snap that.
That's how much I'm on my phone.
I have two of them Now.
(35:11):
The personal one it just betucked away.
It's my rape whistle.
You know, maybe I'm in a, maybeI'm in a in a in a garage
somewhere and somebody want totry to rob me and get some of my
booty hole and I'm like I don'twant nobody around my booty
hole and they trying to rob me.
I ain't got no money on meanyway.
And they trying to rob me andthey run up on me and then my
(35:32):
phone drop, my business phonedrop, and they fly.
They like, aha, I'm about toget your booty.
I'm like no, you not.
And I elbow him in the face andI pull out my personal phone
that's my rape whistle and Iblow that motherfucker.
You know what I'm saying.
That's the 911 call.
Then I call the homies.
You know the homies roll up andthey save my life and the cops
roll up and they save my lifeand I'm good to go, cause that's
my rape whistle phone.
That's my phone.
I don't ever use, but the onlyway I know I got a personal
(35:54):
phone Is about five people hadthat number, six people, maybe
seven.
If you clue, sarah Sarah, comeon home, baby Sarah, don't do
this.
Sarah, sarah, come on, baby,come on home.
But I it's.
(36:16):
It's something I don't know ifa lot, I think a lot of people
deal with it.
It's something I don't know ifa lot, I think a lot of people
deal with it.
If you do, if you are contentbuilding, social media marketing
, if you, I'm sure, if you intothat, which are big things,
these are things people making aliving off of.
I make a living off of it.
My eyes I get eye strainheadaches.
You know, I got blue lightglasses.
(36:38):
I don't ever wear them joints.
I got to get.
You know what I got to get.
I got blue light glasses.
I don't ever wear them joints.
I got to get a.
You know what I got to get?
I got to get a blue lightscreen protector.
I'm disconnected from realmoments.
I'm sure that if I was layingon a table bleeding out and the
doctors were around me, I wouldask hey, can you get my phone
real quick so I could post aboutthis?
(36:59):
I got to post about how I'mbleeding in the hospital and I
might die.
Disconnection from real lifemoments that's shade.
Posture problems slash techneck that's shade.
Less focus slash productivityin the real world that's shade.
(37:23):
I don't really live in the realworld, partly because I'm a big
ass kid part, you know, kid part, willy Wonka but hard to truly
rest.
Look, I don't sleep, I don'tsleep, I don't sleep.
(37:48):
So let's just say example I'mwatching a comfort show and I
have a couple of comfort shows.
I've been watching Teen Wolflate night because I watched
Teen Wolf back in the day.
I love Teen Wolf.
So I was like I'm going tostart watching Teen Wolf again
because I need some shit to fallasleep to, because my brain be
going all the time Right, so Ineed something to fall asleep to
, right.
So it's either that it used tobe like Frasier, you know the
Office.
I still watch them occasionally.
Y'all know what Frasier is.
I know y'all listen what thefuck is a Frasier.
So anyway, I used to watchFrasier, or I'd watch the Office
(38:11):
.
You know Martin, you knowLiving Single, you know I have
these shows, I have thesemoments I go through and I smoke
them out.
And now I'm watching ModernFamily.
I'm smoking out seasons ofModern Family, and then I also
have added Teen Wolf in there.
So I need these things tosimmer me down right.
And I also read that's not a badthing to have a comfort show.
(38:32):
It was a good thing.
So don't sit from wherever youlisten to me at and try to judge
me.
I read about it.
Don't believe me.
Google about it.
Having a comfort show is goodfor you.
They even say we're smarterpeople and we're more relaxed
people.
I agree, but even when I'mwatching my shows, I look up.
(38:54):
I'm like let me scroll.
I got to get on the Twitter, Igot to get on the top.
I got to get on the gram.
Did I post this?
Did I do this?
Did I do that?
I wonder if I can ever break it.
I could break habits.
I'm a bad cabinet closer.
I was in a relationship onetime.
She would just tell me I'mreally bad at closing cabinets.
I worked on it.
(39:16):
I got better.
I'm not saying I was perfect atit, but I worked on it.
I got to it.
I leave out of the kitchen.
It would go from being threeminutes before I realized that I
left that cabinet open.
It got down to a minute.
Now I would go back in thekitchen.
I shut the cabinets Right.
I worked on it.
It was a problem, I worked onit.
(39:37):
I can recognize a problem andwork on it and fix it, except
the phone one.
I hope there are so many morepeople that deal with this.
I need to find a community onReddit and see if they got
solutions that they do.
People are going to tell yousolutions all the time.
I don't think they really knowhow bad of a problem it can be
for somebody.
This is my life.
(39:59):
This is how I make my ducats.
For a decade plus, actually,though, since social media,
since Twitter for me.
Early on Twitter, like I'vefigured out, oh shit, you can
market on this, I can make thiswork for me.
Early Twitter, too, we talkingearly Twitter, I can make this
work for me.
So I've always ate off ofsocial media, ate off my phone,
(40:24):
not to mention the thousands ofnumbers that are included.
You know just doing what I'vedone for so long Text messages
nonstop that come through whenwe have special events.
I'm always on this shit, evenwhen I'm out.
Just say, I'm out with abeautiful, fantastic, hot woman
and I have to turn my phonesdown.
(40:44):
I don't turn my phones downbecause there's a ton of hoes
texting me.
I got a few hoes texting me.
I'm not saying I ain't got, Igot a few.
You know I got a few hoestexting me.
I'm not saying hoes in a badway, I'm saying hoes in a funny
way.
So please don't take that.
I got a few women.
How about that a little bitbetter?
I got a few women text me.
You know what I'm saying.
But I'm not turning my phoneover because I got my few women.
(41:04):
I got a lot of women text me.
I got a few.
Now I ain't gonna brag, I got afew.
I'm gonna keep saying itbecause I got a few.
I don't want you thinking Iain't got none and you're like I
don't want to be with nobodyain't got no hoes.
I got a few hoes.
You know what I'm saying.
I ain't got a lot of ho.
I got a few ho.
You know what I'm saying.
But I turn my phone over Becauseif it's up and it's going off,
(41:27):
I will then block Her out.
I block her out and then Igotta get to my phone, or at
least I gotta look at it, or ifthe phone ring, I'll be like
hold on.
I got to get this Cause I don'tyou know what I'm saying or a
message come through on thegrizzy gram, I'll be like, hold
on, I got to get to this.
(41:47):
Oh like, oh, hold on, I got to,I got to, I got to post this.
These are real things that haveplagued me in relationships.
You know what that means toknow that you have a problem and
it plagues you in relationships.
They'd be like and the peoplearound you learn you and they
just they see you pick up yourphone and they stop talking to
(42:09):
you because they know that youhave now launched yourself into
the phone and you can no longerparticipate in real world
activities.
It's crazy.
World activities it's crazy.
I hope when I retire you knowwhat I'm saying.
I wish I could do the deletethe weapon saxophone.
I'm actually probably going toput that as a drop Delete the
(42:32):
weapon saxophone as a drop andI'm going to play it whenever I
have moments like this.
But I'm hoping when I retirethere will be this release where
I just don't ever look at myphone again, because I have
(42:57):
looked at my phone and used myphones like man.
I put my phones through hell.
I don't charge well.
That's why I think Apple shouldlet me.
Let me Look.
I just did it right now becausemy phone was popping off,
because I'm a busy motherfucker,my shit's popping off.
I looked at it and you can tellwhen I do it because, look,
I'll be like yeah, blah, blah,blah, blah, blah, blah.
(43:20):
Look, I'll be like yeah, andthen my voice go and I come back
because I was looking at myphone.
That's what I'm saying.
But I'm hoping one day I couldjust, you know, be done with
that thing.
Never look at my phone again.
You want to get a hold of me?
Find a pigeon bitch.
Write a note, strap it to thepigeon bitch.
(43:47):
Send a pigeon my way.
Wouldn't get a hold of me.
Get a fax machine.
Wouldn't get a hold of me.
Send it through Uber, becauseUber delivers stuff, so you can
write a letter.
You can write a letter, a reallysincere letter.
You know what I'm saying.
Maybe add it and put it insidea Hallmark card.
Put the Hallmark card in theenvelope with the letter in the
(44:08):
envelope, and then have Uberdeliver it to me.
That's pretty cool.
If you want to do that, youcould do that too.
But you can have it deliveredto me and I can get it when I'm
on my own place and by myselfwith my dog, and it's just me,
my dog and some television, andthat's it.
That's how you got to get a holdof me.
You got to get a Hallmark card.
You got to write a letter, putthe letter inside the Hallmark
(44:29):
card, put the letter in theHallmark card inside the
envelope, and you got to pick upthe phone.
And you got to hit Uber upbecause Uber could deliver it to
me and then Uber to me.
I don't want it through themail, I don't want to send
nothing through the USPS.
I just got done complainingabout these motherfuckers.
They don't do shit well, theydon't deliver shit on time.
That's how you got to get ahold of me.
I can retire myself from thephone because it's insanity, a
(44:52):
bit scary, because I don't wantto look up.
I still plan to be a pops.
I don't care about being an oldpops.
Ain't nobody going to fuckingmake fun of me?
I don't give a fuck.
Al Pacino got a kid right now,81 years old, just had a baby 81
.
You see, I just talked about it.
What's Belichick?
Got him a hot one 74.
(45:14):
Got him a hot 24.
You think he about to have akid.
He about to pop a few pills,about to have him a good time.
Oops, it's an accident.
Take it with you.
You know what I'm saying.
Take it with you.
I like the name Billy.
I won't be here much longer,but I like the name Billy.
And if I'm dead and I find outyou didn't name my child Billy,
(45:37):
you ain't getting none of mymoney.
I got it in the wheel that mychild Billy, you ain't getting
none of my money.
I got it in the wheel that mychild need to be named Billy
because Bill Belichick and myson need to be named Billy.
I don't even know how I come upwith this shit.
She just pops in my head and itjust goes.
But you understand what I'msaying.
I'm being old pops.
I don't care about that, but Ifeel like if I'm at my child's
birth and my phone vibrate, notonly that.
(46:00):
First of all, let me just say Idon't think I got the stomach
for that.
I like to consider myself areally good dude and I'd be a
fantastic pops, but I get queasyeasy and I ain't built for that
.
(46:22):
Now you can record it it I'llnever watch it.
You need to have the right typeof support system in the
delivering room and that ain'tshade cause I don't want you to
need my support and I'mprojectile vomiting.
(46:48):
Now the nurses have turnedtheir focus to me the doctor
trying to do his job, but thenurse is concerned about me
because I sound like theexorcist.
But the nurse is concernedabout me because I sound like
the exorcist.
And if I got enough, just say,just for example, maybe I had a
little dairy that day.
(47:08):
Maybe I had a little dairy thatday.
Now I got it coming out of bothends.
Now the nurses are dizzy, theycan't focus, they smelling, they
might start throwing up.
Then the main doctor who needssome assistance Getting my baby
out.
He ain't got no help Cause thenurses done smelled my ass gas.
Now they dizzy, they throwingup.
They see my throw up, my shithot With the milk coming out, my
(47:31):
ass gas, the milk in my throwup.
Everybody in the motherfuckingdelivery room.
We all fucked up.
The doctor, the onlyprofessional in there, and he
gonna need some help.
So I don't want to puteverybody through that.
That ain't what I want to do.
That ain't what I'm about now.
(47:52):
I don't want to miss thatmoment.
I think I could tough it out.
I talk a lot of shit, but Ithink I could tough it out as
long as I get like a cigar Idon't even smoke, but as long as
I get like a victory cigar formaking it through that situation
.
But that's how bad it is whenit comes to me being on my phone
.
I'm attached to it at all times, both phones, all times, every
(48:17):
time and you're not supposed tothey tell you hey, man, when
you're charging your phone, takeyour phone out your room, take
it out the room.
My phone's being on my bed,tucked under my pillow, under my
feet Shit.
Sometimes they end up on thecharger.
Most of the time they don't.
The motherfucker's as close ashell.
So I can reach over.
You would think I'm a damndetective, like my phone going
(48:42):
to bust off at four o'clock inthe morning and they gonna say
hey, you up.
I'm gonna be like mad becauseI'm like one of those fears,
like those little angrydetectives.
Do you think I'm up?
It's 4.30 in the morning.
What do you want?
Well, we need you down here.
We got us a body All right.
And I you down here.
(49:05):
We got us a body all right.
And I roll over and I tell mywife I gotta go.
She's like what's going on?
I'm like, yo, your nighttimebreath is bad, but I gotta go.
They got a body.
She's like okay, baby, don'ttalk to me no more, get some
(49:25):
sleep.
I'm not a detective, just adude who makes his living
marketing being a promoter,sometimes being an influencer,
but it's driven me up a wall,man, and I've never really
looked for people.
There's like a bunch of stuffout there where you can look at
but, hey, you can try this, youcan try that, but it's got a
(49:47):
hold of me and hopefully one dayI'll be able to change it.
Now to the more uppity side ofthe podcast.
As I finish up, I see MissionImpossible last week, and y'all
know I stay inside the theateras I finish up.
I see Mission Impossible lastweek, and y'all know I stay
inside the theater.
It's summertime, so I stayinside the theater now and hold

(50:55):
This is what I'm talking about.
I was listening because Iwanted to make sure, oh, that's,
oh, that is trash.
(51:15):
I was here.
Nobody even knocked on the door.
My dog would have barked,anyway, I see Mission Impossible
.
Oh, I'm so upset right now.
Nobody even knocked on the door.
My dog would have barked anyway.
Uh, I see mission impossible.
Oh, I'm so upset right now.
Oh that's.
Oh, I see mission impossible.
Um, final reckoning.
And they were really glazing, uh, tom cruise, in the first hour,
(51:40):
that movie movie it's very,very, very slow because it was a
lot of professional glazing ofTom Cruise, and rightfully so,
because he's done so many movies.
I mean it started in 1996.
He's done so many MissionImpossibles right and so they
were really giving him thegreatest.
You know they could give himright.
And then that that hours twoand three, it becomes just like,
(52:05):
oh shit, this dude and he andhe gets away without getting
shot.
Can I say that?
I can say that all right,because there's a spoiler.
Is that enough time?
I won't spoil like that.
But the stunts that he does, hedoes these things are
incredible.
The sounds of the stunts,because he's actually doing them
(52:27):
.
They really went hard withshowing his face and a lot of
these crazy things that he'sdoing, and the sounds of a lot
of these crazy things that he'sdoing is real crisp, clear and
impactful to what you'rewatching.
So it was phenomenal to seethat I don't like the way they
did Vim Reigns.
I don't like all that.
You know I already talked aboutit before.
They be playing my boy.
They don't really give himnothing to do for real and then
(52:50):
he do some stuff in here whereI'm like, man, you ain't got to
do that, don't do that.
That's horrible.
I really hate the really,really, really, really, really,
really hate it.
Really, I'm really mad at FedExman.
I'm here.
I can hear that's trash, bro.
(53:11):

Man, I don't want to.
You know I put my hard-earnedmoney into FanDuel because I'm
thinking like there's no wayAnt's going to give me 25.
It's do or die.
He's the guy you know went tothe Olympics, played around.

(03:47):
And I listen, you know, happyfor OKC.
Small town man, small townmarket.
Nba finals I mean, I'd ratherwatch a four-year-old draw on a
white wall than to watch OKC.
But they all talented, they allplay hard.
They're young.
Caruso's a vet, you know,harnstein's a little bit of a
(04:09):
vet in there, but that's really,really boring and you need that
, man.
You want some excitement whenyou're watching your sports.
You want some excitement whenyou're watching your sports.
You want some excitement.
Come on, man, I put my moneydown on Ant to get 25.
(04:31):
Man, you want to do or die?
Man, you can't give me 25.
I want to do or die.
God damn you.
Man, god damn you.
I didn't put the D on there, Iput the God.
I put my money down, man, 25.
I did some other things onthere, but I put the 25 on Ant
(04:55):
because he Ant man.
I saw something this morningthat said he, the Can't man,
shit.
I had to watch fucking Sheashoot jump shots with a straight
face.
No excitement.
Do interviews with his wholeteam.
No excitement, no flair, nohistory, no history.
(05:22):
And then I got a, which I thinkis going to happen, which I
think the Pacers end up beatingthe Knicks tonight because
obviously looks like Cat's notgoing to play.
Cat's not going to play.
It's really over now.
(05:43):
Watch OKC and Indiana Pacers,it's like a nightmare.
So Freddy Cougars creating anightmare for me.
He's like, oh shit, I'm puttingNia Long in your nightmare.
I said, oh shit, you're puttingNia Long.
That's not a nightmare, that'sa dream.
He said hold on, I'm not done,I'm putting Nia Long in your
(06:04):
nightmare.
And she ain't got no arms, sheain't got no legs, she got one
eye eye patch.
I said, well, that's fucked up,man, that's a nightmare.
He said, but I'm not done.
He said, I'm not done, I'mgonna take kelly kapowski from
the early 90s, I'm gonna put herin there too.
She will have the same thing noarm, no leg, one eye with an
eye patch.
I said now see, now, this isjust totally wrong, it's totally
(06:27):
fucked up.
This is a nightmare.
He said, but I'm not done, I'mputting J-Lo in there and J-Lo
gonna be in the corner.
She's gonna be doing theTootsie Roll the whole time.
So you fucking around, man,that's not cool and that's what
I'm going to have to watch atthe NBA Finals.
Man, shit, that's not cool andit's going to be boring and it's
a fucking nightmare, man, andI'm not watching that shit.
Man, I'm not watching that shitman.
(06:51):
And I got to be quiet becauseI'm listening for a package from
FedEx, because I ordered someperfume and it's coming from
South Korea and they're supposedto be getting delivered today.
I know I'm fly.
I ordered some shit from SouthKorea.
Y'all don't order shit fromSouth Korea.
It ain't from North Korea, itain't from Kim Jong and the boys
, it's from South Korea.
The place is all right.
I think it's safe for me toorder some shit without
(07:13):
potentially getting some poisonin it.
I ordered it from South Korea.
It's supposed to be here today.
I'm waiting on FedEx Monday.
I think I ordered it Monday,tuesday, tuesday, right, I
ordered it Tuesday and it's here.
So it's shocking because I canorder shit in the States and
won't get it from UPS.
Usps order it on Tuesday, won'tget it till next Wednesday.
(07:33):
That's the skill.
But FedEx South Korea, shit'sgoing to be here about today.
I'm amazed and blown away thata guy packing in South Korea is
going to be here.
But I ordered in the States.
Shit won't be here until nextWednesday.
Shit's crazy.
But nobody's happy about thatshit.
Nobody wants to fucking watchthat NBA Finals man, even Adam
(07:55):
Silver, the commissioner of theNBA, tch, tch.
You know what I'm saying.
He feel me know what it is.
But anyway, this is Daddy Shay.
You're listening to SeasonableClout, fucking Weak ass.
(08:20):
Nba Finals is coming up, butbasketball is still basketball.
Like I said, I'm still.
I'm going to take a peek.
There's going to be some times.
I'm going to watch some minutesthroughout the game Because I'm
chilling.
I'm going to see what's goingon.
Now they give me some good boxoffice scores or some close
games, about two close games.
I might you know what I'msaying.
I might, but I doubt I will.
(08:44):
I expect it to be slow and lowscoring.
Hmm, mm-hmm, but I doubt I will.
I expect it to be slow and lowscoring and blah, blah, blah.
Anyway, you know what'sinteresting to me is I've been
vegan now for five years.
I've talked about this multipletimes in different episodes and
just being vegan doesn't makeme special.
I'm not better than anybody.
You know what I'm saying.
I'm not better than nobodybeing vegan.
(09:04):
Do I hold my head up like I ambetter than everybody?
A little bit because I am vegan, but I don't think that I'm in
my head.
I don't think that I'm betterthan you.
I don't think that that's nothow I roll right, been vegan
five years but it never fails to.
(09:28):
You know people.
You know I do a taco tuesday,right, I'm, remember, I'm a
promoter.
I do a taco tuesday, I do awing wednesday.
And so people come to therestaurant and they're hanging
out with me.
They'll ask me hey, what'swhat's good on the menu?
Right, taco tuesdays at wellseasoned restaurants, costa,
arizona I guess I gotta do thatbecause I got a puppet, right.
Maybe somebody listening.
They want to come in town, youwell seasonedseasoned Scottsdale
, arizona, soul food, bunch ofshit, right.
And they'll ask me hey, man,what tacos are good?
(09:52):
And I'm like I don't know, man,I'm vegan, I don't eat here.
But I mean I've heard this taco, the chicken and the salad, you
know, I've heard, right.
And then we have a soul fish, asoul food taco with greens and
macaroni and catfish, right.
So I've heard these things aregood, they be like.
But they don't listen.
Once I say that I'm vegan,everything else is out the
(10:14):
window.
They don't listen to shit else.
Oh, negro, you're vegan.
Get a load of this guy here.
He's a black vegan, a blackvegan.
There's no way.
It's no way.
(10:34):
It's like finding out that aleprechaun writes Trump's
speeches.
There's no way.
Maybe a leprechaun does.
Maybe there's like a littlesmall leprechaun somewhere in
the White House who just gigglesabout, who skips around in the
White House and he takes five to10 minutes out of his day to
(10:55):
write Trump's speeches and thenhe hands them over to one of his
people and he runs off gigglingand he go, finds his own pot of
gold that he hid somewhere.
He knows exactly where he hidit, but he just goes off into an
adventure inside the WhiteHouse, giggling, skipping and
dancing, and he finds his pot ofgold and he sleeps in it till
the next day.
Then he wakes back up and hedoes the same thing again.
(11:16):
Maybe that's, maybe that's whowrites Trump's speeches.
You know, maybe, maybe, but I'msorry, but people don't.
They lose focus because they'relike oh shit, you're vegan.
(11:41):
And I'm like, yeah, I'm vegan.
Like, are you serious?
People always double down, areyou serious?
I'm like, yeah, I'm vegan.
Like, are you serious?
People always double down, youserious?
I'm like yeah, I'm vegan man.
So I don't know what to gethere, but it doesn't matter, I
don't care about what yourecommend.
Let's dive into your veganismsome more.
And I'm like well, I don't do itfor the animals.
You know what I'm saying.
Y'all good, if I need to goahead and kill them to eat, go
(12:03):
ahead and eat.
I understand I don't do it foranimals.
I do it just for my body andhow I want to live and how I
want to feel and what I think isbest for me, right?
I don't do it for the animals.
So if you got to go out thereand you got to pop Bambi's
mother for some deer meat,that's what you got to do and I
don't say do that.
You know what I?
And if you know that that'sBambi's mama, I wouldn't say
(12:23):
shoot it.
But if there's another deernext to her, named Cheryl, you
can shoot Cheryl.
I would prefer you to shootCheryl than you can do your
thing and eat some deer meat ifyou want.
I don't, I ain't for theanimals when they come to me.
I just do it for my body andwhat's good, what I think is
good for me, right.
But people, they really areconfused by it.
(12:45):
A Negro, vegan and five yearsand I remember Craig Visions but
he was a roommate at the timebusting out of his room talking
about hey man, why don't you dothis seven-day challenge with me
?
Because he's watching somedocumentary on Netflix and
(13:09):
that'll do that.
And I'm like, all right, coolman.
No, I don't think I can do it.
I didn't think I could do it,so, no, I'm not going to do it.
And he was like, come on, man,let's do it.
And then he told me, like abenefit he said it'd make your
dick harder.
I know you ain't supposed tosay that between two men.
(13:30):
I prefer he had emailed it orhad texted it.
Now the text is a little, emailis a little bit more
professional.
So if you were to email thatinformation and then at the very
bottom say, hey, eat vegan thisway, make your dick harder, I
say, oh shit, that's where I'msold at.
But he was, it was aconversation in the kitchen and
it might've been some jazzplaying in the background.
(13:50):
That's a little weird and thatwasn't a good time to say that.
But I understood what he wastelling me so I accepted.
I said, oh shit, you got mesold Seven days.
Let's run, let's see whathappens.
You know, and because men doanything for the dick to perform
fantastically, you'll doanything for that motherfucker.
Listen, the right amount ofdoctors come out and say man, if
(14:14):
you do this, not only will yourdick grow, you will last longer
, you'll be harder, and then allthe men will like, lean in,
like, oh shit, what you got todo.
And they'd be like you got togo find bigfoot.
Nigga and the whole world ofmen, just go try to find bigfoot
(14:36):
, because they find out.
If you find bigfoot and you rubhis back, all of a sudden your
shit is stronger, longer and youcan.
You know you good to go, butthat's how it is.
So he came to me, told methat's all right is so.
He came to me and told me and Isaid, all right, seven days,
vegan, fuck it.
It wasn't even about the healthat the time.
It wasn't about my jointsfeeling better or my skin being
clearer or even my body odorsmelling different.
At the time, it was just aboutfuck it.
He said something about my dickbeing harder.
(14:57):
I'm going to do it.
I did it Seven days.
I did it Seven days, man, andit was difficult, it was
difficult, it was very difficult.
(15:18):
I'm not playing man.
It was real difficult.
I didn't think I was going tomake it.
I was used to eating, eatinglike shit, not you know shit.
You know, even if I was, youknow, I think at the time I was
(15:38):
listen still in the gym.
I'm just saying at the time Iwas heavy in the gym, right.
I was doing my thangs, eatingchicken steak and shit and now
burgers and shit and, you know,occasionally some shakes and
shit and some fries and shit.
So I was eating some shit,right, I was accustomed to
eating that type of shit and itwasn't like a slow roll.
We didn't.
We didn't wean, what's that?
(15:59):
Is it wean, wane, weanourselves over that, whatever
the word.
You know what I'm saying.
We didn't do that, we just wentcold turkey.
We just said, fuck it, we'regoing to do it for seven days.
We did it for seven days andthen I realized, as I was going
through this very difficultseven day process by like the
actual like sixth day, I waslike, oh shit, I'm like one day
away from doing this, likefinishing it.
(16:20):
I was like, okay, cool man.
And then the seventh day, youknow.
And I was like, okay, cool man.
And then the seventh day, youknow, we got through it.
And on the eighth day we wastalking and like early in the
morning I was like you want todo it again for another seven
days I said, all right, fuck it.
I mean, you know, wasn't noimmediate, there wasn't no
crazy-ass results for me.
You know what I'm saying, I'm areal G Wasn't no crazy-ass
(16:45):
results for me.
Now, after that second week,whoo-wee I got to give you that
old man down south whoo-wee,whoo-wee man.
My system was processing stuffdifferent.
I was shitting, I was, you know, the energy was up, my joints
was feeling different.
These are just small thingsthat I had noticed immediately,
(17:06):
right.
And then, man, 60 days in, Iwas like, officially sold,
probably wasn't even 60.
It's probably like a good monthin.
I was like, yeah, I'll never goback to meat eating.
Nothing was heavy again.
You know, my poopity poopsmelled different.
(17:44):
You know, it was just.
Even my gym sweat smelleddifferent.
That's crazy, right.
My breath smelled different.
Everything was just differentand it was for the good.
So I was like, all right, f it.
And you know, you know, asyou're doing it, you got to, of
course, do more research and I'mnot a great cooker, I'm a
professional microwave pusher,like button pusher.
You put me in front of microwaveand I can turn that shit into
one of the best pornographicthings ever in life.
I can tell you I can make thatshit look sexy, lexi.
(18:04):
Three minutes, three minutes.
I don't just hit three, I don'tlike to just hit three.
I like to make it dramatic.
I like to hit three, zero, zero, and then I spin, I holler and
then I hit the start button.
I watch my shit rotate Threeminutes.
I don't play about my microwaveskills.
I ain't a great cook.
I eat to survive.
I can't.
(18:25):
I have no skills in the kitchen.
I love watching people makefood.
I love watching people makefood, but I can't do it.
So I stick to the basics and,you know, a little something in
the pan every now and then, youknow, sometimes I'll do
spaghetti and I, you know, Ifeel very, very Italian.
(18:47):
It ain't Italian.
You know what I'm saying.
I just feel it.
Sometimes I do a little worklike that and sometimes I do
take risks and I try to putsomething together that me and
Chad GPT put together and itdon't come out the way it's
supposed to.
I'm sure if Chad GPT was anactual robot that was standing
next to me, he would just belike I'm disappointed, nigga,
(19:07):
and then I would be ashamed andI would never try to cook again.
But I don't push my veganism onto nobody.
If you want to be vegan, bevegan.
But I don't ever push it.
But people be so blown away andthey ask so many questions about
it.
Now I feel like I'm overtalking about it and I'm trying
to put you on.
And people hear me talk aboutit Now they're like, oh, don't
be trying to put him, I'm goingto try to push your vegan on
(19:29):
somebody.
I ain't do that.
He asked me about it.
I'm just trying to share myresults.
He asked me about my veganism.
I'm just trying to share myresults.
Come over here.
I don't do that shit.
I don't knock on people's doorsat six o'clock in the morning.
Are you prepared to be a vegan?
I don't do that shit.
I ain't a Jehovah's Witness.
(19:50):
I don't be out here with bagsand pamphlets of shit trying to
sell people on vegan.
That's not what I do.
It's not what I do.
Hold on, let me get a sip.
I ain't drinking coffee becauseI'm out of my coffee pods, but
I did order the weekend espressopot.
So the weekend.
You know the singer I don'treally care about he and I said

I don't like people having mynumber.
That's why I got my personalnumber.

dairy in it, winston's justgoing to have to suffer then,
because I'm going to let it outof my ass, but I'm going to
drink that coffee Because ifit's good, I'm going to get it

of massive travel centers thathas garnered a cult-like
following for transforming atypical gas station experience
(30:25):
into a full-blown, a wide arrayof merchandise featuring its
beaver mascot.
Huh, it's coming to Arizona.
I think it's expanding toArizona, breaking ground in
Goodyear, so it opens June 2026next year.

As much as people talk aboutPhoenix, it ain't like that.
Listen, man, I don't want togatekeep a good city.
Now I could bitch and be likeyou're turning us into LA and
traffic's starting at 1230.

God, it was crazy.
Memorial Day weekend Last yearwasn't the same.
It wasn't like that.
It didn't feel as busy.
This year.
You could definitely feel.
Folks got a little money andcame on out here, you know, and
(32:41):
it was nice to see.
It was really nice to see.
Now I'm going to talk aboutsomething and I'm pivoting.
You know I'm pivoting and I doa lot of work on my phone, right
, everything I do is on my phone.
It's how I make my money.
I'm on social media on my phone.
(33:01):
It's how I make my money.
I'm on social media all thetime.
It's how I eat, it's how I feedmy dog, it's how I feed me All
through the phone, which isfantastic, because I never
thought that would be possibleJust for me to eat from my phone
, right.
But there's like a big negativeto it.
(33:22):
It's hard for me to not to liketo like zone in on my shows.
Now I noticed that it's hardfor me to zone in on my shows,
even when I'm in the movies.
And those are my things, like,I love watching my TV shows, I
love watching.
You know, going to the moviesor watching classic movies,
those are my things.
(33:42):
Even then I can feel the urge,just a weird urge in my hand and
just in my body, just to pickup my phone and check.
You know they call it anincreased anxiety and FOMO.
I guess you get increasedanxiety and the FOMO, the fear
of missing out.
These are things I had to learnfrom the young youth.
I didn't know what FOMO was atfirst.
(34:03):
A long time ago I was like whatthe fuck is FOMO?
And I had to look it up, I hadto Google it.
I don't feel good aboutGoogling shit.
When I had to look up ASL, Ididn't feel good about that.
That's not cool, it's notfantastic, it's not jiggy, you
know.
But I did and I could tell thatI had I do.
(34:28):
I was like damn man.
The minute, even in my owncareer, I'd be like, oh shit,
where my phone at I don't knowwhere I put it at, you know what
I'm saying?
And I'd be like, oh shit, it'sright here, it's tucked under
some covers.
Oh shit, it's right here, it'stucking in some covers.
The panic happens.
It's a real panic and it sucksbecause I'm so on it that I
(34:51):
could be on a phone conversationand I have to tell the person
hold on.
I got to like, post this up, orI got to do this, or I got to
do that.
I'm always on my phone and I'mafraid that I won't be able to
break it.
Do you know what that feelslike to know?
You have this issue and you'dbe like I don't think I'm going
to be able to snap that.
That's how much I'm on my phone.
I have two of them Now.
(35:11):
The personal one it just betucked away.
It's my rape whistle.
You know, maybe I'm in a, maybeI'm in a in a in a garage
somewhere and somebody want totry to rob me and get some of my
booty hole and I'm like I don'twant nobody around my booty
hole and they trying to rob me.
I ain't got no money on meanyway.
And they trying to rob me andthey run up on me and then my
(35:32):
phone drop, my business phonedrop, and they fly.
They like, aha, I'm about toget your booty.
I'm like no, you not.
And I elbow him in the face andI pull out my personal phone
that's my rape whistle and Iblow that motherfucker.
You know what I'm saying.
That's the 911 call.
Then I call the homies.
You know the homies roll up andthey save my life and the cops
roll up and they save my lifeand I'm good to go, cause that's
my rape whistle phone.
That's my phone.
I don't ever use, but the onlyway I know I got a personal
(35:54):
phone Is about five people hadthat number, six people, maybe
seven.
If you clue, sarah Sarah, comeon home, baby Sarah, don't do
this.
Sarah, sarah, come on, baby,come on home.
But I it's.
(36:16):
It's something I don't know ifa lot, I think a lot of people
deal with it.
It's something I don't know ifa lot, I think a lot of people
deal with it.
If you do, if you are contentbuilding, social media marketing
, if you, I'm sure, if you intothat, which are big things,
these are things people making aliving off of.
I make a living off of it.
My eyes I get eye strainheadaches.
You know, I got blue lightglasses.
(36:38):
I don't ever wear them joints.
I got to get.
You know what I got to get.
I got blue light glasses.
I don't ever wear them joints.
I got to get a.
You know what I got to get?
I got to get a blue lightscreen protector.
I'm disconnected from realmoments.
I'm sure that if I was layingon a table bleeding out and the
doctors were around me, I wouldask hey, can you get my phone
real quick so I could post aboutthis?
(36:59):
I got to post about how I'mbleeding in the hospital and I
might die.
Disconnection from real lifemoments that's shade.
Posture problems slash techneck that's shade.
Less focus slash productivityin the real world that's shade.
(37:23):
I don't really live in the realworld, partly because I'm a big
ass kid part, you know, kid part, willy Wonka but hard to truly
rest.
Look, I don't sleep, I don'tsleep, I don't sleep.
(37:48):
So let's just say example I'mwatching a comfort show and I
have a couple of comfort shows.
I've been watching Teen Wolflate night because I watched
Teen Wolf back in the day.
I love Teen Wolf.
So I was like I'm going tostart watching Teen Wolf again
because I need some shit to fallasleep to, because my brain be
going all the time Right, so Ineed something to fall asleep to
, right.
So it's either that it used tobe like Frasier, you know the
Office.
I still watch them occasionally.
Y'all know what Frasier is.
I know y'all listen what thefuck is a Frasier.
So anyway, I used to watchFrasier, or I'd watch the Office
(38:11):
.
You know Martin, you knowLiving Single, you know I have
these shows, I have thesemoments I go through and I smoke
them out.
And now I'm watching ModernFamily.
I'm smoking out seasons ofModern Family, and then I also
have added Teen Wolf in there.
So I need these things tosimmer me down right.
And I also read that's not a badthing to have a comfort show.
(38:32):
It was a good thing.
So don't sit from wherever youlisten to me at and try to judge
me.
I read about it.
Don't believe me.
Google about it.
Having a comfort show is goodfor you.
They even say we're smarterpeople and we're more relaxed
people.
I agree, but even when I'mwatching my shows, I look up.
(38:54):
I'm like let me scroll.
I got to get on the Twitter, Igot to get on the top.
I got to get on the gram.
Did I post this?
Did I do this?
Did I do that?
I wonder if I can ever break it.
I could break habits.
I'm a bad cabinet closer.
I was in a relationship onetime.
She would just tell me I'mreally bad at closing cabinets.
I worked on it.
(39:16):
I got better.
I'm not saying I was perfect atit, but I worked on it.
I got to it.
I leave out of the kitchen.
It would go from being threeminutes before I realized that I
left that cabinet open.
It got down to a minute.
Now I would go back in thekitchen.
I shut the cabinets Right.
I worked on it.
It was a problem, I worked onit.
(39:37):
I can recognize a problem andwork on it and fix it, except
the phone one.
I hope there are so many morepeople that deal with this.
I need to find a community onReddit and see if they got
solutions that they do.
People are going to tell yousolutions all the time.
I don't think they really knowhow bad of a problem it can be
for somebody.
This is my life.
(39:59):
This is how I make my ducats.
For a decade plus, actually,though, since social media,
since Twitter for me.
Early on Twitter, like I'vefigured out, oh shit, you can
market on this, I can make thiswork for me.
Early Twitter, too, we talkingearly Twitter, I can make this
work for me.
So I've always ate off ofsocial media, ate off my phone,
(40:24):
not to mention the thousands ofnumbers that are included.
You know just doing what I'vedone for so long Text messages
nonstop that come through whenwe have special events.
I'm always on this shit, evenwhen I'm out.
Just say, I'm out with abeautiful, fantastic, hot woman
and I have to turn my phonesdown.
(40:44):
I don't turn my phones downbecause there's a ton of hoes
texting me.
I got a few hoes texting me.
I'm not saying I ain't got, Igot a few.
You know I got a few hoestexting me.
I'm not saying hoes in a badway, I'm saying hoes in a funny
way.
So please don't take that.
I got a few women.
How about that a little bitbetter?
I got a few women text me.
You know what I'm saying.
But I'm not turning my phoneover because I got my few women.
(41:04):
I got a lot of women text me.
I got a few.
Now I ain't gonna brag, I got afew.
I'm gonna keep saying itbecause I got a few.
I don't want you thinking Iain't got none and you're like I
don't want to be with nobodyain't got no hoes.
I got a few hoes.
You know what I'm saying.
I ain't got a lot of ho.
I got a few ho.
You know what I'm saying.
But I turn my phone over Becauseif it's up and it's going off,
(41:27):
I will then block Her out.
I block her out and then Igotta get to my phone, or at
least I gotta look at it, or ifthe phone ring, I'll be like
hold on.
I got to get this Cause I don'tyou know what I'm saying or a
message come through on thegrizzy gram, I'll be like, hold
on, I got to get to this.
(41:47):
Oh like, oh, hold on, I got to,I got to, I got to post this.
These are real things that haveplagued me in relationships.
You know what that means toknow that you have a problem and
it plagues you in relationships.
They'd be like and the peoplearound you learn you and they
just they see you pick up yourphone and they stop talking to
(42:09):
you because they know that youhave now launched yourself into
the phone and you can no longerparticipate in real world
activities.
It's crazy.
World activities it's crazy.
I hope when I retire you knowwhat I'm saying.
I wish I could do the deletethe weapon saxophone.
I'm actually probably going toput that as a drop Delete the
(42:32):
weapon saxophone as a drop andI'm going to play it whenever I
have moments like this.
But I'm hoping when I retirethere will be this release where
I just don't ever look at myphone again, because I have
(42:57):
looked at my phone and used myphones like man.
I put my phones through hell.
I don't charge well.
That's why I think Apple shouldlet me.
Let me Look.
I just did it right now becausemy phone was popping off,
because I'm a busy motherfucker,my shit's popping off.
I looked at it and you can tellwhen I do it because, look,
I'll be like yeah, blah, blah,blah, blah, blah, blah.
(43:20):
Look, I'll be like yeah, andthen my voice go and I come back
because I was looking at myphone.
That's what I'm saying.
But I'm hoping one day I couldjust, you know, be done with
that thing.
Never look at my phone again.
You want to get a hold of me?
Find a pigeon bitch.
Write a note, strap it to thepigeon bitch.
(43:47):
Send a pigeon my way.
Wouldn't get a hold of me.
Get a fax machine.
Wouldn't get a hold of me.
Send it through Uber, becauseUber delivers stuff, so you can
write a letter.
You can write a letter, a reallysincere letter.
You know what I'm saying.
Maybe add it and put it insidea Hallmark card.
Put the Hallmark card in theenvelope with the letter in the
(44:08):
envelope, and then have Uberdeliver it to me.
That's pretty cool.
If you want to do that, youcould do that too.
But you can have it deliveredto me and I can get it when I'm
on my own place and by myselfwith my dog, and it's just me,
my dog and some television, andthat's it.
That's how you got to get a holdof me.
You got to get a Hallmark card.
You got to write a letter, putthe letter inside the Hallmark
(44:29):
card, put the letter in theHallmark card inside the
envelope, and you got to pick upthe phone.
And you got to hit Uber upbecause Uber could deliver it to
me and then Uber to me.
I don't want it through themail, I don't want to send
nothing through the USPS.
I just got done complainingabout these motherfuckers.
They don't do shit well, theydon't deliver shit on time.
That's how you got to get ahold of me.
I can retire myself from thephone because it's insanity, a
(44:52):
bit scary, because I don't wantto look up.
I still plan to be a pops.
I don't care about being an oldpops.
Ain't nobody going to fuckingmake fun of me?
I don't give a fuck.
Al Pacino got a kid right now,81 years old, just had a baby 81
.
You see, I just talked about it.
What's Belichick?
Got him a hot one 74.
(45:14):
Got him a hot 24.
You think he about to have akid.
He about to pop a few pills,about to have him a good time.
Oops, it's an accident.
Take it with you.
You know what I'm saying.
Take it with you.
I like the name Billy.
I won't be here much longer,but I like the name Billy.
And if I'm dead and I find outyou didn't name my child Billy,
(45:37):
you ain't getting none of mymoney.
I got it in the wheel that mychild Billy, you ain't getting
none of my money.
I got it in the wheel that mychild need to be named Billy
because Bill Belichick and myson need to be named Billy.
I don't even know how I come upwith this shit.
She just pops in my head and itjust goes.
But you understand what I'msaying.
I'm being old pops.
I don't care about that, but Ifeel like if I'm at my child's
birth and my phone vibrate, notonly that.
(46:00):
First of all, let me just say Idon't think I got the stomach
for that.
I like to consider myself areally good dude and I'd be a
fantastic pops, but I get queasyeasy and I ain't built for that
.
(46:22):
Now you can record it it I'llnever watch it.
You need to have the right typeof support system in the
delivering room and that ain'tshade cause I don't want you to
need my support and I'mprojectile vomiting.
(46:48):
Now the nurses have turnedtheir focus to me the doctor
trying to do his job, but thenurse is concerned about me
because I sound like theexorcist.
But the nurse is concernedabout me because I sound like
the exorcist.
And if I got enough, just say,just for example, maybe I had a
little dairy that day.
(47:08):
Maybe I had a little dairy thatday.
Now I got it coming out of bothends.
Now the nurses are dizzy, theycan't focus, they smelling, they
might start throwing up.
Then the main doctor who needssome assistance Getting my baby
out.
He ain't got no help Cause thenurses done smelled my ass gas.
Now they dizzy, they throwingup.
They see my throw up, my shithot With the milk coming out, my
(47:31):
ass gas, the milk in my throwup.
Everybody in the motherfuckingdelivery room.
We all fucked up.
The doctor, the onlyprofessional in there, and he
gonna need some help.
So I don't want to puteverybody through that.
That ain't what I want to do.
That ain't what I'm about now.
(47:52):
I don't want to miss thatmoment.
I think I could tough it out.
I talk a lot of shit, but Ithink I could tough it out as
long as I get like a cigar Idon't even smoke, but as long as
I get like a victory cigar formaking it through that situation
.
But that's how bad it is whenit comes to me being on my phone
.
I'm attached to it at all times, both phones, all times, every
(48:17):
time and you're not supposed tothey tell you hey, man, when
you're charging your phone, takeyour phone out your room, take
it out the room.
My phone's being on my bed,tucked under my pillow, under my
feet Shit.
Sometimes they end up on thecharger.
Most of the time they don't.
The motherfucker's as close ashell.
So I can reach over.
You would think I'm a damndetective, like my phone going
(48:42):
to bust off at four o'clock inthe morning and they gonna say
hey, you up.
I'm gonna be like mad becauseI'm like one of those fears,
like those little angrydetectives.
Do you think I'm up?
It's 4.30 in the morning.
What do you want?
Well, we need you down here.
We got us a body All right.
And I you down here.
(49:05):
We got us a body all right.
And I roll over and I tell mywife I gotta go.
She's like what's going on?
I'm like, yo, your nighttimebreath is bad, but I gotta go.
They got a body.
She's like okay, baby, don'ttalk to me no more, get some
(49:25):
sleep.
I'm not a detective, just adude who makes his living
marketing being a promoter,sometimes being an influencer,
but it's driven me up a wall,man, and I've never really
looked for people.
There's like a bunch of stuffout there where you can look at
but, hey, you can try this, youcan try that, but it's got a
(49:47):
hold of me and hopefully one dayI'll be able to change it.
Now to the more uppity side ofthe podcast.
As I finish up, I see MissionImpossible last week, and y'all
know I stay inside the theateras I finish up.
I see Mission Impossible lastweek, and y'all know I stay
inside the theater.
It's summertime, so I stayinside the theater now and hold

See now, this is hold on, bro.
(50:55):
This is what I'm talking about.
I was listening because Iwanted to make sure, oh, that's,
oh, that is trash.
(51:15):
I was here.
Nobody even knocked on the door.
My dog would have barked,anyway, I see Mission Impossible
.
Oh, I'm so upset right now.
Nobody even knocked on the door.
My dog would have barked anyway.
Uh, I see mission impossible.
Oh, I'm so upset right now.
Oh that's.
Oh, I see mission impossible.
Um, final reckoning.
And they were really glazing, uh, tom cruise, in the first hour,
(51:40):
that movie movie it's very,very, very slow because it was a
lot of professional glazing ofTom Cruise, and rightfully so,
because he's done so many movies.
I mean it started in 1996.
He's done so many MissionImpossibles right and so they
were really giving him thegreatest.
You know they could give himright.
And then that that hours twoand three, it becomes just like,
(52:05):
oh shit, this dude and he andhe gets away without getting
shot.
Can I say that?
I can say that all right,because there's a spoiler.
Is that enough time?
I won't spoil like that.
But the stunts that he does, hedoes these things are
incredible.
The sounds of the stunts,because he's actually doing them
(52:27):
.
They really went hard withshowing his face and a lot of
these crazy things that he'sdoing, and the sounds of a lot
of these crazy things that he'sdoing is real crisp, clear and
impactful to what you'rewatching.
So it was phenomenal to seethat I don't like the way they
did Vim Reigns.
I don't like all that.
You know I already talked aboutit before.
They be playing my boy.
They don't really give himnothing to do for real and then
(52:50):
he do some stuff in here whereI'm like, man, you ain't got to
do that, don't do that.
That's horrible.
I really hate the really,really, really, really, really,
really hate it.
Really, I'm really mad at FedExman.
I'm here.
