(00:00):
Listen, that's what I'm saying.
(00:05):
I mean, you know, I was trying to, I'm looking through my phone.
I was, cause I used to be, I was skinny at one point in life and I was like, damn, like,
yeah, in my early twenties.
Yeah.
That's uh, that's when God has your body.
Cause you can do anything to it and it'll bounce right back.
Look at how bony this dude is. Ok collarbone.
(00:26):
I was a stick, 150 pounds.
Yeah.
At my height.
Wow. A needle!
So, so when I went to Jamaica, this guy said it the best.
And like, this has been like screaming out at the back of my mind.
Like I didn't understand it at the time, but I thought he was being a jerk.
Cause like, I know that, cause I was going through my fitness journey and things like that.
(00:49):
This is back like four or five years ago when I, right.
Right before I turned 30, so I went to Jamaica for my 30th birthday.
And I seen this guy, he was ripped.
He was jacked.
And I was like, Oh, I was like, dang bro.
I was like, I'm like, yo, like, you know, like how do I, how do I get jacked and ripped like you?
Like, what do I need to eat?
Or like, what, what type of recommendations would you give me?
(01:10):
And this guy, as he walked away from me, he just said, go eat them weights.
So my advice to the brother is go eat some weights, a/k/a hit that gym.
And then hitting the gym is going to increase your metabolism.
If you want to bulk up, you have to eat.
If you're somebody like me who doesn't like to eat, then you're going to be, that's going to be your hardest struggle because you got to make sure that your intake is matching the work that you're doing to create muscle.
(01:34):
Cause I'm assuming that you don't want to be skinny, but you don't want to be fat because being fat is not what you're looking for either.
You want to be muscular.
To get muscles.
You have to build muscles to build muscles.
You need high protein intake.
I don't know all the signs, but you need a certain intake of food that is going to allow your muscles to grow to then, because the same way that fat people get jacked is the same way a skinny person will get jacked also.
(01:57):
So if you're too skinny and you feel that way, one, you definitely need to see what you're eating.
What is your diet look like?
And then go and get, go eat some weights.
And at first I thought he was a jerk, but that was actually, I hope that brother's doing good.
I hope he's doing good because that was some of the best advice I ever got.
Go in the gym and hit those weights as hard as you can.
I mean, you know, he might've been a jerk, but you know, you thought that you were going to get like him eating jerk.
(02:21):
Yes. He was going to tell me, I thought he was going to give me the Holy grail of like, yeah, you need to eat strawberries in the morning and kale at night.
No, he said, go get some weights. Go do that. Go hit the gym.
No, I mean, that's probably, you know, Jamaicans, you know, shout out to all the Jamaicans.
You know, they're very blunt like that.
Listen to your uncles, don't do anything to your body that you'll live to regret.
(02:44):
You know, I know it's difficult, you know, when you see all of these big buff dudes on social media and they be lying about how they got their bodies.
But listen, that's another show for another day.
Yeah, no gear. Stay off the gear.
I mean, they be lying hard.
But listen, you need to appreciate what you have.
Like how's your personality, Jae? Do you got the rizz?
(03:06):
I saw your IG and you know, Jae, I saw your IG, because you DMed this question to us.
And you're a very talented artist.
But I mean, when you invest in yourself, no one can underestimate that.
All right. Your value lies within.
Don't place your value in what someone else has because that isn't your path.
(03:27):
I mean, look, look at the three of us. Look at the three of us.
We're all built differently, but we're all decent brothers.
Even if one of us was built like the other, we're still worthy of respect and love and grace and kindness.
Oven still cooks.
But Jae, good luck to you. If anybody out there, you know, you might be dealing with some type of body issues.
(03:48):
I mentioned this earlier, but you can text your zip code to 435748.
And they have people on standby with resources, you know, waiting to help you.
And you know, I got a resource too.
Stay off of social media.
That's it. That's my resource.
And that makes me sad. You know, it just that makes me sad because he's young.
He's 24 years younger than all of us. That’s real.
(04:11):
We got another one. Got another one.
And this one is this one is a lighter one.
And yall are going to like this one.
So this was from a guy named Wayne.
Wayne is 37 he’s from Jersey.
And Wayne asks the guys. Oh, boy.
Let's go. Yeah.
I've been getting these messages from this lady on LinkedIn. Ooh.
(04:33):
Telling me she wants to hook up with me.
Nice. That's not the place you do that. But OK.
Especially not on LinkedIn.
That's the wrong job you're looking for brother. LinkedIn is the club now.
At first, I thought she was a catfish, but I went to her page and she's real.
She works for my company, but at another location in the city close by, she's attractive and I'm interested.
(04:54):
She said she saw me in one of our Zoom meetings and wanted to get to know me.
Should I link up with the lady from LinkedIn?
You take this, Joey.
You're ready to go in.
Shoot yo shot, brother.
Shoot yo shot. I would say shoot yo shot because obviously she it’s not.
If it's confirmed, not a catfish situation.
(05:17):
She says that you've seen you guys do work together.
That is true. And she's seen you. So it's not like it's a random event type of thing.
And assuming that this is not any foul play type of thing, like she's trying to set you up, obviously.
Shoot your shot, brother. Go for that. I'll go for it. Why not?
Not too often do you have a woman that shows interest and is willing to go outside of their comfort zone to do something like that.
(05:41):
That's a very bold move.
Maybe you might like a bold move like that.
Maybe right now you're sounding like you're intrigued enough to want to see if this can be something.
So you only live once. Go for it. I'll say shoot your shot.
So Khai, I can't get rizz her up out of my head from last time.
You were like, yeah, rizz her up.
(06:02):
Like I had a meeting. So this is what happened. This is what happened.
I had a meeting and I showed up like extra early and I'm like, man, they're not going to let me back because I'm not on the schedule until 10.
So I go in and the secretary's there and she looks over and she looks like she's ready to go.
So Khai starts playing in my head. This guy over here, he starts playing in my head.
(06:23):
He's like, you got to rizz her up. And so that's what I did.
And she let me go early. Khai, what do you think of the LinkedIn linkup?
Relationships at work, right? I think for anything. We all love to thrill of.
What's the taboo about this is so great. We work at the same time.
It might say that brings similarities. Like, oh, you get what I'm talking from. You get this.
(06:47):
And it's an opportunity. But I'm one of those where I have to think about how does what I do now impacts me later on.
Now we can say it's an opportunity. But what if it doesn't go right?
Yeah, but they're not at the same location. So I see what you're saying.
But she's saying that because they're they only seen each other through a Zoom from what he just told me.
They only seen each other do a Zoom call. And it's not like we're in the same work like environment.
(07:13):
They have to say he works at a location in Jersey City and she's in a location in Manhattan, I'm assuming, because he said a city nearby.
OK, so it's so quick. But I was going to say, for example, in two or three years, we change our roles or positions.
Things change. Maybe you're my boss now and it didn’t end well for us.
And now you're not supposed to harbor those feelings that it comes in to play later on or, you know, it can impact.
(07:35):
That's why I say it's all hypothetical. Right. But you never know who someone holds that grudge later on,
because I've been in a position where it's like, yo, we good.
But now somehow you're… off where I am, where I'm not.
And now I report into you somehow because HR don't know what happened.
Yeah, but it can go the opposite way then also, because you might be like, we hit it off and nepotism is real.
(07:57):
Tell me, get some I'm a CEO because she got me up there. I don't know where I go to advise. I don't shit where I eat and no matter how much it needs to be.
Because I always say we all say, let's be adults about this. We all know that never happens.
No one else had to keep that group because they did. What if what it turns into?
Are we just we dating or we just talking?
Because now when we go to all the other office parties, you hear somebody see something.
(08:18):
How you not get your feelings because we're bringing those outside interactions into the workplace?
You know, I'm one of those people where I say to my friends, for example, don't hook up with any of my coworkers.
We out at a party or something because I don't be on teams.
Get a message like someone's with your boy. No, not my problem.
That's the worst.
Always like I try to avoid it.
(08:41):
They could be the baddest is like because I was like, it could go right.
But also what could go wrong? But at the same time, we're adults.
You know, I say we're adults, but you want to try it.
Right? It's just you be prepared for what potential consequences to come.
You know, it could go one way, but same time you could.
It's been like, how do you know what women are? You decide you're trying to smash and dash? Because that's going to come up very different with someone at work.
(09:06):
You get out. But it could be the love of my life.
We have the same ministry and next, you know, look at us. We're a love story.
So, you know, there's it's how intriguing is she?
If she's that intriguing, I would say go for it. If it's something that comes with more flags, then yeah, if it comes more flags than anything, then I probably wouldn't either.
But like I said, if she's beautiful, I think she's attractive. I think this is like a good this could actually be something real quick, even if it doesn't.
(09:32):
She doesn't have to be my forever person. But for the stage I am in my life right now that this can work.
I'd say go for it.
And it's like I would say inverse. She's being bold to reach out. So that's where that is. So she's clearly what she likes.
So, you know, go for it. But at the same time, yeah, be careful because HR is a real thing.
Like, yeah, like he he's harassing me now. Like whoa.
(09:57):
This is this is my thing, because I think, you know, as far as attraction, I think they're both attracted to each other.
I mean, he sounds like, you know, this kind of you know, Joey said it, women usually don't do that.
So like, this is a big deal. I think he's attracted to her physically.
I think he's also attracted to the fact that she hollered at him. And I think, you know, she's attracted to him to even do that.
(10:21):
So, Wayne, this is what I think you should do. This is what I want you to do. Meet up with her at a neutral location.
Now, you're in Jersey City. I'm assuming you work there, too.
You work in Jersey City. So and she's in Manhattan. How about this? You take the PATH, right?
Go to Journal Square. You take the PATH. Meet up somewhere in Midtown for drinks after work.
(10:45):
And this is what you do. Have one drink, just one.
Don't get trashed because HR comes into play before you start getting trashed like Joey said.
But just get a little something that will take the edge off so you can see where her head is.
And if her head is right, you know, invite her to an actual date, like not a restaurant or a bar, but like somewhere fun where you can engage in like, you know, some type of activity.
(11:09):
Now, I'm not saying you got to go rock climbing or kayaking, you know, but do something that involves, you know, an activity, you know, other than sitting and, you know, just rizz her up, like Khai says rizz her up.
So, yo, but the LinkedIn linkup is real though.
I've never seen that. I've never.
The LinkedIn linkup. I mean, wow.
(11:33):
We're all professionals. Settle down, guys.
But this is what I want to know. This is what I want to know. See, this is where we did all the advice stuff. Those were really good by the way.
We have more, we'll do them on another show.
So thank you everybody for that.
What's one of the wildest dates you've ever had, Khai?
So when I was on the apps and cruising around.
(11:57):
You had your Kool-Aid chain on, right? Did you have the Kool-Aid chain on?
No Kool-Aid chain, but you know, we only got a little something something for to catch your eye.
I was on...
Yeah, this one's I won’t tell.
It was one of those dates where we met through the apps and it was just, you know, all cool calm collective.
Everything's fine. But then after a while, we decided to meet up.
(12:22):
We're having a good time. You know, we go get brunch.
It was one of those Sunday fundays that turned into, holy shit, like, who's the adult here?
Who's gonna be the responsible one?
So we go for a boozy brunch and it's like, I can have one more.
But I'm like, we just had five crafts of mimosas, but let's just keep going because it's fun. It's all good.
(12:46):
Then, you know, for some of the spots I have in Brooklyn I like to go to, it's like, oh, I know the bartenders here is a little, you know, hey, so now we're getting free shots.
We're getting free drinks.
And it's just going from there and we keep, you know, bar hopping.
And it's about probably now seven or eight.
Now, mind you, she lives in Jersey City and doesn't drive.
So she has some out get from that to the PATH back over there in some way, shit before.
(13:09):
And I'm like, I ain't paying no...
But we get to my place. I'm like, well, you want to come kick it for a little bit, you know, like wind down, whatever.
We get to my place and I don't know where she just starts attacking me like, body on body. I'm like, all right, cool.
And then I'm like, you know, we have our fun, you know, gentlemen never tells.
(13:33):
We have fun. Yeah, I mean, we're going to keep it PG today.
It's a family show this morning. Yes.
But you know, after I hit this, Khai you can tell us everything.
You know, we can go for hours, but then it's like, OK, it's like 11, 12.
And I’m like how are you getting home? It's like, I'm not leaving.
(13:55):
I'm like, wait, what? Like, no.
I mean, I'm going to work. I got work in the morning. But no, I'll just do whatever I need to.
Blah, blah, blah. I'm like, no, no, no. Like, I need you to leave.
But that's when I didn’t have a voice on understanding of how to ask someone to leave after this point.
So now you were just being you're like, I'm hostage, my own apartment with this person.
I literally just could we talk a few days and now we're out here and the deed's done.
(14:19):
I'm good. I got what I wanted from this.
And so now it's like I'm wide awake because again, I can't fall asleep. I don't know this person. Are they going to rob me?
Like and the cat's no help. He's looking at me like, who the fuck is this person?
Literally, I had to stay awake till like 6:45 and be like like, hey, you going to go?
Yeah, I think I'll go home now. I'm like, OK, cool.
(14:42):
But like I'm now like tired as fuck. Wide eyed? And I'm like, did she still rob me?
Like, I don't know. Was there a moment?
You went into the bathroom. She got you for everything.
Oh, man. She took all your nice smelling conditioner. All your shampoos.
Yeah. You try to steal a whole lot of my colognes.
All I can say is she was a cousin of an infamous podcaster.
(15:06):
Nice. Oh, I know exactly who you're talking about.
Shout out to Communipaw Avenue. Joey, share with us one of your wildest dates.
I'm pretty I'm not going to lie. Like I don't have have wild dates.
A lot of like my my thing is man vanilla.
Like I'm I'm we're just going to dinner.
(15:27):
I'm a dinner specialist. Call me food bae if you want to.
Right. That's what I do. Like if I'm we're going to get some good food.
And then if I can't wine and dine you enough, then I guess I wasn't doing my job.
But usually one and I usually can't go wrong with a wine and dine situation so
Listen, let me tell you, Joey wined and dined, Joey and Britney wined and dined me! And it was good.
(15:48):
Yeah, that's the point. You got to want to get one and dine them.
And yeah, that's the battle right there. And I’m the homie.
You always find somewhere good to eat and then have wonderful conversation.
And then after wonderful conversation, then whatever leads into that.
After that, I've had more crazy times with like my friends and ending up in the wrong place in Brooklyn
because I was so drunk that I was in Manhattan and I thought I was on the on the E train to Queens.
(16:14):
But I'm on the M train to Brooklyn and yeah, it was crazy.
You want a crazy story?
You know what? We're not going to share that.
Yeah. Because you told me a crazy story when I was out with you.
That story. Yeah, that one was insane. I was like how in the world?
Yeah, well, you can you'll share that after the show.
That was wild. I was like yo son. Yeah, that's crazy. We were. Yeah. OK, so I have two.
(16:38):
I have tow because you all know me. I’m for everybody. So I have two.
So the first one was on Fourth of July.
It happened on the Fourth of July, not this Fourth of July, but it was Fourth of July one year.
And this young lady I was dating, she said, Hey, do you want to go see John Legend on the Parkway?
Everybody knows I went to school in Philly. I went to Temple. Shout out to Temple.
(17:01):
Temple! And I said, Oh, yeah, but, you know, like, are you ready?
Because she needs to take long to get ready.
Like, easily, this girl would take like two hours and 25 minutes to get ready.
Like, easily, easily. And I mean, this is in the mid 2000s.
So, I mean, you know, this is before lashes and weave and BBLs and everything.
(17:24):
So anyway, I said, yeah, sure.
So I go up to her crib and she's not ready. And I'm like, you know, we should have probably been inside the, you know, the gates three hours ago.
And she's just like, OK, well, what do you want to do? I'm like, have you ever been to Atlantic City?
No, she hadn't been to Atlantic City because she was from the Midwest.
(17:46):
She said, you know, no, I've never been. So I'm like, all right, cool. So we're going to go to Atlantic City.
So we get in the car and I really liked her. I liked her a lot.
I'll tell you more about her after this goes off because I'm trying to keep this clean.
But we took the scenic route down Atlantic City.
We didn't take Atlantic City Expressway, we went down Route 30, like we took the scenic route.
(18:08):
We talked. It took us like three hours to get there. So I said, yo, I have this card.
Because whenever you go to the casinos, they give you a card and you swipe it and put your points on whatever.
I said, we're going to go to Borgata. So she's like, OK, whatever.
I don't know what a casino is. Like, let's just do it.
So we get there and there's this slot machine there.
(18:31):
And Khai, it's called the hundred dollar slot machine.
Meaning you have to put a hundred dollars in the slot machine for one spin. For one chance one go.
For one spin. For one spin. Buffalo! Buffalo!
So Joe, that's like if exactly. So it's like if you win, if you win, you win.
Yes. But if you lose, you’re pissed because you lost a hundred dollars.
(18:54):
That's the hundred I needed for the whole date. Exactly.
I'm like, all right, look, I'm going to show you how to play the machine.
So something told me, don't let her play this machine.
Give her another machine to play. So I put some money in the machine or whatever.
And, you know, she played and she didn't win anything.
So then I go and I put my hundred dollars in the machine.
(19:17):
I fucking win. That thing lights up like ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Let's goooo. Now, I'm not going to say how much I won because I don't need you.
Well, I can say how much I won. That money's long gone. Yeah because the Feds be watching.
That money's long gone. No, I mean, it's long gone.
But I'll just tell you guys. So I won like…
(19:39):
Whaaaat? Off of that one fucking spin.
Off of that one fucking spin. That is insane. She was pissed.
Because that was the machine that she.
You took her. Exactly.
That was the machine that she was going to play. You were supposed to split that.
So I'm like, yo, I just hit. I went to the cage, you know, to get my get my check or whatever.
(20:00):
I'm like, I’m young, I just hit. Like, this is going to be lovely.
Like, we're going to stay here. She wouldn't speak to me.
We get back on the AC Expressway, way, mind you, it's Fourth of July. It's traffic.
We sat in traffic another three hours going back up to Philly.
I say, yo, you want something? You know, she wouldn't say anything.
So I stopped at Melrose Diner. So I got a food or whatever.
(20:24):
You know, I call her the next day. Her roommate picks up the phone.
This is back when people still had land lines.
Her roommate's like, I'm like, yo, you know, what's up? Like, what's going on with her?
She won't come out of her room. I'm like, well, did she eat?
Nah, the food's still on the counter. I said, well, do me a favor.
You know, heat it up, give it to her or something. Oh, she doesn't want to eat.
(20:45):
I'm just like, but I mean, what did I do? I didn't do anything wrong.
Like, I was really like smitten, like I was in love over this with this young lady.
Like, I was in love. So anyway, long story short.
So fast forwarding, my sister, God rest her soul, my sister passed away.
I was telling my sister about this, what happened.
(21:07):
And she said, you know, it wasn't meant for her to put that money in that machine.
It was meant for you.
Because if she put that money in the machine, she would have stopped talking to you anyway.
I said, you know what, sis? You're right. You're right.
And then, so, okay, so another crazy wild date.
We went to some restaurant in the village or something.
(21:30):
Like the food was nasty. He's like, yo, you don't like the food?
Like we could go to this spot on Long Island I know about.
He was from Long Island. He wasn't from your part of Long Island, Joey.
He was from like, Suffolk.
So he's like, yo, I know this restaurant.
I'm like, but how are we going to get there?
Like, I'm not riding L-I-R-R like you're smoking crack.
Like how are we going to go?
Ronkonkoma line.
He's like, yo, let's just, exactly.
(21:51):
See, this is why we have Joey and Khai on here.
Because they just be knowing things.
So I don't have to be here alone, like all in my own head.
So, so yo, so he's like, yo, we could take my dad's car.
I'm like, so you've been driving this whole time
and you've had me up and down on the subway like all day.
(22:12):
And you didn't say shit to me?
So anyway, so we go, so I'm like, where's your dad's car?
Oh, he works for NYPD.
You know, he parked over on such and such street.
So I'm like, all right, is he going to be okay with this?
Like, you know, his dad's NYPD.
I'm like, I'm not trying to, you know, get on anybody's bad side.
Exactly.
So he's like, nah, it's no problem.
So we go over, you know, we go over to his dad's, you know, where he parked at.
(22:36):
And you know, I meet his dad or whatever, dad's cool.
We get in the car.
The car is like this mid 90s, like big body Benz.
You know, the old chrome, you know, big body joints.
That's my favorite word, by the way.
Big body Benz.
Yes, big body Benz.
You can use that for people, places and things.
(22:58):
You can use it for everything.
It's amazing.
Yo, that pizza was a big body Benz.
It's just, you can use it for anything.
So we get in the car and we're just like riding around like joy riding in this pop’s
whip.
And so I'm like, yo, so what do you want to do?
Like, I mean, you know, it's like, well, you know, my dad, my mom and my dad, they're going
(23:22):
out of town.
Like, you know, my dad's going to I think Grenada.
My mom's going to Trinidad.
Like, you know, I'm going to be home alone.
So we're blasting music, whipping in and out of lanes on 495, just going
just reckless, reckless.
So we get out there and he stops at CVS and I'm like, what are you stopping at CVS for?
(23:43):
He's like, yo, you know, I want to I think we should hang out tonight.
We should go to club or something.
But, you know, can you dye my hair?
I'm like, cool, I can dye your hair.
We get the dye.
We get back to his house or whatever.
What do yall want me to tell you?
Because I don't...
Just keep on going.
(24:05):
You get to the house and what?
So we get to the crib.
We get to the crib.
I'm reading the box for the dye.
I'm doing all the stuff.
I've dyed my hair before.
Like, it's no big deal.
I've dyed my hair, dyed my beard.
I've done all of it.
So I'm putting, you know, the stuff in his hair.
And I’m like, yo, do you have anything in your head?
Do you have a texturizer or something like that?
(24:27):
And he's like, nah, you know, this is my natural curl.
And so I'm like, all right, man, you know, this is your natural curl.
I trust you.
The dye is going.
The clock is ticking.
Tick tock, tick tock.
You start seeing smoke above his head?
Start going crazy?
Ah, like the color starts turning like this weird color Joe, like it's like...
(24:51):
The color was supposed to be red, but it starts turning like this, acid orange or something.
It just looks crazy.
That's wild.
So I'm like, all right, listen, I think we need to wash this out early.
ASAP Rocky for sure. I think we need to do this.
Let's just do this.
So I'm washing his hair and it's coming out in like clumps.
(25:12):
Oh no, you burned through it.
I'm like, son.
Not the whole...
He knocked the toupee off.
He burned the toupee off.
So I said to him, I said, man, you know, it's okay if you had a texturizer, right?
He's like, nah, I didn't.
I think it was the dye.
It was something wrong with the dye.
And he's like, but can you give me a fade?
(25:34):
I'm like, so this happened before.
This has happened before.
Exactly.
Now I'm the barber.
I mean, you know, I can't help it.
Like I've always had a fly line up.
Okay.
We lining it up.
He wasn't upset because I mean, this is probably something that has happened in the past.
Okay.
You know what I mean?
Like it is.
(25:56):
Anyway, Joey.
Joey is our designated TV guy.
All right.
So Joey, what have you been watching lately?
So Netflix, I go through my Hulu Netflix.
I've seen Freaknik.
Freaknik was a good documentary.
I think it was the one about Georgia.
(26:17):
Yeah.
Yeah.
It started with a picnic and then it turned into something.
Cause you know, Uncle Luke had to.
Turned into a Freaknik.
Yeah.
And then it got a little predatory.
So Freaknik is a good little documentary.
A nice little quick watch on Hulu.
And then people who watch Netflix.
The Program is a good one right now.
(26:38):
It's about locking kids up because they were bad.
But of course the parents of these bad kids have money to afford to send these kids to
specialized schools where if you want it, you could have gave us the money.
If you wanted us to traumatize your kids, you would have just paid me 80,000 to traumatize your kids.
Did you see that?
Did you see the program?
I haven't seen it yet by me.
It's like being in upstate New York, you have friends that went away for a little bit.
(27:02):
It came back and you're like, what happened to like, yo, it's just my parents.
It's the only way to parents was like, you were doing the behavior, but what they were
doing to these kids, man, that's trauma.
Yeah.
I mean, they rather.
I watched it.
They said being locked up was being like they were in heaven being locked up like in juvenile
detention was better than conditions, which is insane.
(27:24):
It was crazy.
That was crazy.
Man.
You know, the thing about it is that really bothered me is that New York State knew about
this since ‘06.
So that's like 18 years at this point that they knew about this.
They knew what was going on.
And I'm just saying, like, typically we talk about like public schools being bad and all
(27:45):
these things going on, but you need to vet private schools too.
Yeah.
Because who knew that this was going on?
And I mean, there was a movie I saw on Lifetime.
It was called Cruel Instruction and they were girls.
It was a girls school and they were forced into this treatment facility being abused
and it's just it's crazy.
(28:06):
I mean, but that county upstate is called St. Lawrence County.
They're investigating the abuse allegations at the former Academy at Ivy Ridge and Attorney
General Tish James' office is now aware of the investigation and they're looking into
this as well.
So that's that's really good.
But Khai, what about you?
What’ve you been watching?
Well, I am a Law & Order stan than the Tubi movies I told you to watch.
(28:31):
Those two people, I still got to do it.
I haven't had a Tubi ratchet night in a minute.
Other than the Bag Girls, classic.
Right now, what I've been doing, get back into my Law and Order.
Right. I love me some Olivia Benson.
She's my she-ro. Catch up on that…
But actually, you know, I think I forget sometimes I don't use Amazon the way I need to.
(28:53):
Outside of just ordering stuff.
So Amazon, you know, Prime the videos there outside your typical shows like The Boys,
you know, some other stuff, you know, Invincible is back.
That's a great show.
This season it’s hitting hard already.
It's like, all right, let's get to the good stuff.
Also, just like the movie they put out because I'm like, where are you getting all this?
(29:14):
I mean, I know we're getting money Amazon for these big budget.
But like saw the Ricky Stanicky movie with John Cena.
What's his name from High School Musical?
Oh, Zac Efron and stuff.
That was actually pretty funny.
It actually worked. But actually, I just saw Roadhouse and it's my movie of 2024.
Roadhouse.
Jake Gyllenhaal. We like Jakey? Jake the snake.
(29:36):
It is. It has your action. It has your romance. It has your comedy. It has your serious.
Like, it's a feel good.
Like, this is like you're tuned in.
That's everything you need.
And is it kind of insane at times? Yes, because it's Roadhouse.
But that's like John Wick. John Wick gets insane also.
(29:57):
Exactly. So that’s what I’ll do I’ll just watch a movie.
So I get to spend a couple hours and then, yeah, that's it.
And then whatever game I'm watching on TV, you know, NBA season playoffs are coming soon.
March Madness Tournament. It's just weird as the older I get.
I stop watching because I'm like, I don't know any of these kids.
And I'll be damned if I let 19-year-olds predicate my happiness.
(30:19):
Nah those kids are good.
So I want to do a quick little shout out. We're talking about March Madness.
So my soon to be father-in-law, he took us to a Villanova game.
So we had nice court side seats and it was Villanova versus Creighton from Omaha, Nebraska.
Creighton? Yeah, I think it's Creightonton. Creighton, something like that.
(30:41):
Yeah, the Jays or something like that.
So number 23, number 55 and number 23. Them boys are good.
Number 23 is like, he looks like a mixed kid or something like that.
All of them do.
He threw that buzzer beater.
They had them by 20 in the beginning of the game. They kind of put the foot off, let them come back a little bit.
(31:04):
Last like 10 seconds of the game, it's tied up. Looks like it's about to go to overtime.
Everybody's holding each other and we're like, oh, what's going on?
Number 23 hits it. Money. Ends the game. Ends the game.
That's why they're number three. They were ranked number three. Those boys are good though.
Shout out to number 23.
Khai, me and you got beef real quick. We got beef real quick.
(31:25):
Even though Joey is our designated TV and movie guy, I blame you for my Tubi addiction.
It’s all your fault. Because on our last panel, you mentioned Tubi.
While we were on hiatus, I started watching Tubi and I'm addicted.
I mean, Joey, the other night Khai had me watching the Bag Girls and Bad Girls 2.
(31:50):
So like, let me set it up for you. Let me set it up for you.
It's pretty much Set It Off, right? But if they had BBLs and they lived in Miami.
Okay. I bet.
So like there's this scene.
It's a cheer competition?
No, that Set It Off like.
No, Set It Off with Queen Latifah.
Oh, you mean like a heist movie with chicks with BBLs.
(32:13):
Yeah.
I thought it was Bring It On, not Set It Off.
Not Bring It On. Where did you get Bring It On from?
I don't know. I deserve that.
Only Joey. Only Joey. Listen, let's clap it up for Joey.
So listen. Shorty's doing yoga in the park, right? There's this scene.
She's doing yoga in the park like Namaste and her sister's getting set up and her grandmom's getting murked.
(32:37):
And I'm like?
How’s she so calm right now?
So then she beats dude to death. Dudes all bloody.
And then she gives him a lap dance.
And I'm like?
The math ain't mathing.
And so they got these bedazzled shysties on and everything.
(32:59):
Yeah. Like.
Oh wow. Let's go.
Bedazzled.
Yo, shout out to the rapper Maino because Maino is in that.
You said Bad Girls Club?
Bag. B-A-G.
Bag Girls Club.
And Bag Girls 2.
There's two of them.
Yeah. Bag Girls. Part one and part two.
And now here's the hack though. Here's the hack.
(33:22):
Khai taught me the hack.
If you're watching on Tubi, you're going to get all of the ads.
You don't want to get all of the ads.
So you got to watch it on Prime.
If you go to Amazon Prime, you can watch it without the ads.
That's the way to do it.
That's the way to do it.
But see, here's the deal with Tubi.
I'm going to tell you all real quick.
I'm selective with my Tubi films.
(33:44):
I get bougie with the Tubi.
I want all the smoke.
All right.
I need bad lighting.
I need bad sound.
And there's a picture that's going to come up on the screen.
I need to see this brother right here.
All right.
This brother right here.
Lemastor Sprating.
And I need to see this hood Asian chick right here.
See this hood Asian sister?
(34:05):
He's in all the movies.
Sarah Evalt.
So if these two aren't in your Tubi movie, guess what?
We're not watching.
They're A-list Tubi stars?
A-list Tubi stars, Joe.
A-list.
So as long as I see at least one of them in the movie,
I got to see at least one of them.
As long as I see at least one,
I know it's going to be a memorable key.
(34:26):
A quality Tubi movie.
Exactly.
Also the actresses need to be going by their stage name
or Instagram name like Sarah The Body.
Exactly, Khai.
Exactly.
And you know what?
I got to see that white horse in the opening.
You know that white horse.
So wait, so wait, so wait, so wait.
So I jumped into the Tubi rabbit hole.
So there's this one, Joe.
(34:49):
It's called The Affair.
So now both of them are in this movie.
Both of them.
And so is the guy Don from Black Ink, from Black Ink, Chicago.
So this is the one where the pastor cheats on his wife
and he gets the side piece pregnant.
Classic.
And she names the baby after him.
Oh, classic.
Then she goes crazy and she starts talking to herself.
(35:11):
And then there's Please.
Then there's another one called Please.
And shout out to my nurse, Nicole, down at Penn.
Nicole, this is the one I was telling you about.
So Sarah's out there and she's torturing the men who did her wrong.
She got them tied up in the basement and everything.
And then there's Toxic Traits.
Now this one sounds like the chick that Khai was talking about earlier.
(35:33):
So it's this crazy, it's this Jill Scott looking chick.
And she has this thing called Othello Syndrome,
where she gets all obsessed with her partner.
And so she starts killing people with bleach injections.
She's nuts.
She's nuts!
Then there's, what else did I wee?
A Party To Die For.
And this was actually on Lifetime.
(35:55):
This was a Lifetime movie.
Shorty's out here clout chasing and she frames her friend for murder.
And then First Lady, one, two, and three.
That’s with Hoopz from Flavor Of Love.
Brigitte Nielsen?
No, Hoopz.
I can't remember her name, her real name.
But Hoopz, she was like the real pretty mixed girl.
(36:17):
Yeah she’s in that. I know Hoopz.
Jim Jones is in that one too, and so was Jennifer Williams.
But they only in it for a minute.
It's like, they’re just here to get a check or whatever.
And then there's another one called Lawnmower Man.
And that's where the wife is smashing the gardener.
And he gets obsessed with her.
So are you going on to be finding the title and then going back to Prime to watch it?
You know what it is, they suggest them.
(36:39):
No, they suggest.
So like after you watch one, like something else pops up,
it's like a suggestion.
And then, you know, so this other one right here, this one is crazy.
This one's wild.
It was called Passionate Betrayals.
And it's the singer, I remember her from a group back in the day called The Good Girls.
And then there's this other chick, she's a choreographer.
She's got blonde hair.
(37:00):
She got really nice abs.
So they play downlo lesbians, it's kind.
And they’re in a plot to kill their husbands.
These are their husbands right here.
They in a plot to kill their husbands.
It's crazy.
And then in an ending, it doesn't end how you think it's going to end.
The ending was just like.
I'm not surprised.
(37:21):
It was like whoa
And then there's another one.
It had like the killer sex dolls.
It's called Tiffany The Doll.
A sex doll that kills you.
Nice.
So you kill the sex doll figuratively and she kills you literally.
Yo.
That one ended crazy.
(37:42):
Khai you gotta watch that.
That's going to be the next date night.
You guys want to watch some of my terrible movies?
It could turn into one of those three day date nights.
They're only an hour 20.
They're not long at all.
There's so much plot in such a short time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, listen, I just, I don't know, man.
They're addictive.
I have taken a break from them because I'm on a different wavelength right now.
(38:06):
And rest in peace to Irish from 702 because she's in that movie that Tiffany The Doll.
But what else?
The Marriage Pass, Twisted Marriage Therapist, Twisted Date
Anything with twisted in it.
It's going to be good running that.
Yo, she messed Drake up real bad too.
Like the guy looks like Drake, doesn't he?
(38:28):
He looks like Drake.
She messed him up.
The Drake look.
Anything with twisted in it, like it's just, you got to watch and then Khai.
Immortal City Records, you got to watch that.
It was like Empire on Shrooms.
Oh, I like Empire.
Now on Shrooms?
Yo, Joe, it's like Empire on Shrooms.
Like it was nuts.
(38:49):
It was trippy.
It's crazy.
And again, it doesn't end like you would think it would end.
So the wildest one though, like, and I know all of these sound crazy,
but probably the craziest one was this one called Red Flagz.
And Red Flagz was crazy because the ending comes out of nowhere.
Like all of these, the ending kind of comes out of nowhere.
(39:11):
But this one, like, this movie was a comedy.
And then the ending is just like totally different than what you would expect from a comedy.
Okay.
So I shouldn't know.
Listen, man, I got to blame Khai for this.
I got to blame Khai.
It’s all Khai's fault.
Because I knew Khai would get me addicted to something.
Because you remember what I said about his homies last time out in Brooklyn.
(39:35):
What were trying to do to me.
I tell you, man, that damn Khai, it's always one of these two.
It's always one of these two.
There's always something.
If it's not Joey trying to get me drunk at a comedy show.
That was epic.
Is Khai trying to get me drunk at a, you know, at something else, at a kickback or whatever.
But you know what?
(39:57):
Speaking of Joey, though.
Joey, Joey, you got a doppelganger out there, too.
Lakeith Stanfield is your doppelganger.
You know who Lakeith is.
He played in?
Atlanta.
Darius from Atlanta.
Yeah, Lakeith Stanfield, the actor.
I got to look at that.
I got to see.
I got to double check.
Here's LaKeith right here.
So listen, LaKeith Stanfield is in this show on Apple+, Apple TV.
(40:22):
It's called The Changeling, and it's based on this 2017 book with the same name.
I won't give too much away, but it's like it's really dark and suspenseful.
It's a really good show.
So if you have Apple TV, you guys check it out.
Oh, and our friend to the show, Mugga, is in the show.
She's in the show.
She's in episode three.
So shout out to Mugga.
Hey, Mugga.
(40:43):
There's this surgical procedure out.
It's called keratopigmentation.
Now, it's an outpatient procedure that changes the color of a person's iris.
That's the colored part of your eye.
Now, keratopigmentation is considered to be safer than iris implant surgery, which
was made popular by Tiny Harris, you know, T.I.
by Tiny from Xscape several years ago.
(41:06):
And it's less complicated than this other surgery called iris laser, laser iris pigmentation,
which, you know, has been used clinically for aesthetic purposes.
Why are you throwing lasers?
See, that's going back to the body dysmorphia.
Without receiving official approval.
Why are you throwing lasers in your functioning eyes?
So listen, so wait, so wait, so wait, let me let me let me finish.
Let me finish because I'm going to you first.
Let me finish.
(41:27):
Let me finish.
So while keratopigmentation has been done for over 15 years, it has only been available
in the United States since 2019, locally in the New York City tri-state area.
So it starts around $11,700.
Joey, what's it giving?
It's giving.
(41:49):
It's giving.
Not my it's giving.
Not my not my eyes.
I'd rather be.
And also I wear glasses.
I'd rather be.
I don't even wear contacts.
I don't like to touch my eyes.
So sticking lasers and doing all types of other stuff like that.
I probably wouldn't just because it's close to my brain.
It's too close.
(42:10):
Oh, oh, man.
All right.
Khai what’s it giving?
I was going to say I'm going to say privilege, privilege.
Yeah.
I was going to say privilege.
Like the fact that I'm spending this as an abnormal large amount to do something benign.
(42:31):
I look at it like it's really like, oh, and then there's like five different choices.
I can do something crazy, go red, but will actually stay red the entire time or something
else will happen.
But it's privilege the fact that I can spend this amount of money on something that may
permanently damage me.
But like it's a fun of it like woo.
I'm all for cosmetic enhancements.
But for me, like this just seems excessive.
(42:54):
And I mean, if you look at some of these colors, some of them are actually nice and believable.
And I mean, even up close, but then the other ones are just like straight up demonic.
And so for me, it's giving thriller.
That's what it’s giving.
(43:16):
Physical appearance is what you like it.
Like a lot of people said that to me because I wear like wearing the big Afro mohawk and the gauges and the things like that.
Like they're like me just doing that.
I'm like, well, I like that because it's a little bit more personality, a little bit more style, flair type of thing.
Right. He’s alternative! More rizz!
But people look at you like you're projecting you're projecting an outward appearance that you like.
(43:42):
What do you think when somebody looks at you?
What do you think they're looking at?
And I'm looking at it like, well, I would think that they think that I'm a cool type of hipster, maybe like rock kind of kid type of thing.
One, you're not a kid.
So I don't think a curly mohawk is going to give you rock stars and gauges are not giving like that is not giving all of the things that you might be thinking.
But that's how that's where I'm personifying that's or that's what I'm projecting it as.
(44:07):
But sometimes are the projections that you want are you putting out there are those reflective of what you're really trying to put out there?
Because some people some people want to turn into a tiger.
The guy he literally does everything and now he's a tiger.
He's a human man tiger.
And that's what he wants the world to look at him.
The more things that he can change about him to be closer to what a tiger looks like.
(44:28):
He's the guy. He's a tiger.
He will be a tiger at one point. You know what I mean?
Humans love body modification.
I mean, me and Joey appears for the gods like I have piercings.
You just can't see them. Prince Albert?
I'm not going to show my piercings right now.
But I mean, but here's my question though.
Khai, what are you coming over to the dark side with me and Joey?
(44:50):
When are you getting some piercings?
I mean, I got my ears here.
I mean, you know, that's I'm but I'm talking like, you know, you know, something a little more, you know, edgy.
Yeah, where's the edge?
I always feel like my tattoos are the edge.
That's like where I get my like that.
(45:12):
But honestly, it's I don't know what I would get or where…
I don't know what else I would do like besides my ears, maybe get something up here.
I thought about a nose ring. I thought about a nose ring.
But I'm like, it's all cute and shit.
(45:33):
But like, I'm a thug.
And then I thought about a dermal, you know, right here.
I honestly it's one of the things of the care.
Maybe eyebrow maybe Khai, maybe eyebrow piercing.
I never thought about the aftercare.
I'm terrible because even this right up here, this one got infected.
(45:57):
Because I’d just like leave it in and not really clean it properly.
So I'm like, I don't know if I can handle that pain.
But I thought about it. It's honestly it's on the list.
But it's like I really go more like tattoos get the whole like have body full sleeve on that before I get a long piercing.
I'm going to need the needle for a tattoo before I'll get a simple boop.
(46:20):
Yeah, but I know the more that I'm getting older, the less I want to get a tattoo.
It's like it was fun at 20 whatever.
Like I might want to do it, but it's not like I'm not rushing to do it like I used to.
Like there's no tattoo.
It's a tattoo.
Yeah, the thrill of the needle is gone at this point.
(46:41):
I want it wouldn't it wouldn't tantalize tease me like it used to.
I have any.
I have any tattoos.
Yeah. My body is a canvas and I do what...
So I'm the canvas because I don't have any tattoos.
I can never decide on what I wanted to put on me permanently.
And I mean, they have these new tattoos.
They're called ephemeral.
I don't even know how to pronounce it.
It's right here.
(47:03):
But they're tattoos that they last for probably 12 to 15 months and then they fade.
They fade naturally your body just absorbs it.
And I thought about getting one of those just to see how like something would look.
But piercings for me have always been the thing.
Like I've had like quite a few different piercings.
Like when I was younger, I had this thing in here pierced.
(47:25):
But the aftercare kind of freaked me out because I said to the guy, OK, so how do I clean it?
And he's like, oh, just, you know, some warm water.
I'm like, OK, you mean like warm water on the outside?
It's like, no, you can just water through it.
I'm like, yeah, no.
So that lasted like a week. I got that that taken out.
I mean, but, you know, Aunt Bootsy, guess what?
(47:49):
Khai’s getting his eyebrow pierced. My mom would lose her shit.
Crazy. Yeah. Not accepted in the Black community, maybe. Ok.
But but remember, it's crazy because we're talking about body modification.
You remember guys Star wrote in about her boyfriend, her fiancé coming home from prison with the speed bumps in his penis.
So, I mean, yeah.
(48:13):
How did he get that in prison? That's a lot of so many questions with that speed bumps in prison.
Many questions. Well, she left him. Well, listen, she left him.
They you know, she left him. But, yeah, it was like, did he put him in?
Did somebody else put them in?
Like, did you so many questions that your man is coming out prison with this?
And then my first question was, what was he doing in there?
(48:34):
Was he in South America? And she's like, no, he was in Coxsackie.
And I'm like, we all know Coxsackie. You know, it's upstate.
And I'm like, they're doing this at Coxsackie? Like, what's going on in the prison system?
Ca-sacky. But listen, Khai’s from upstate, some Khai knows how to pronounce all that stuff.
Listen, that's what I'm saying.
(00:05):
I mean, you know, I was trying to, I'm looking through my phone.
I was, cause I used to be, I was skinny at one point in life and I was like, damn, like,
yeah, in my early twenties.
Yeah.
That's uh, that's when God has your body.
Cause you can do anything to it and it'll bounce right back.
Look at how bony this dude is. Ok collarbone.
(00:26):
I was a stick, 150 pounds.
Yeah.
At my height.
Wow. A needle!
So, so when I went to Jamaica, this guy said it the best.
And like, this has been like screaming out at the back of my mind.
Like I didn't understand it at the time, but I thought he was being a jerk.
Cause like, I know that, cause I was going through my fitness journey and things like that.
(00:49):
This is back like four or five years ago when I, right.
Right before I turned 30, so I went to Jamaica for my 30th birthday.
And I seen this guy, he was ripped.
He was jacked.
And I was like, Oh, I was like, dang bro.
I was like, I'm like, yo, like, you know, like how do I, how do I get jacked and ripped like you?
Like, what do I need to eat?
Or like, what, what type of recommendations would you give me?
(01:10):
And this guy, as he walked away from me, he just said, go eat them weights.
So my advice to the brother is go eat some weights, a/k/a hit that gym.
And then hitting the gym is going to increase your metabolism.
If you want to bulk up, you have to eat.
If you're somebody like me who doesn't like to eat, then you're going to be, that's going to be your hardest struggle because you got to make sure that your intake is matching the work that you're doing to create muscle.
(01:34):
Cause I'm assuming that you don't want to be skinny, but you don't want to be fat because being fat is not what you're looking for either.
You want to be muscular.
To get muscles.
You have to build muscles to build muscles.
You need high protein intake.
I don't know all the signs, but you need a certain intake of food that is going to allow your muscles to grow to then, because the same way that fat people get jacked is the same way a skinny person will get jacked also.
(01:57):
So if you're too skinny and you feel that way, one, you definitely need to see what you're eating.
What is your diet look like?
And then go and get, go eat some weights.
And at first I thought he was a jerk, but that was actually, I hope that brother's doing good.
I hope he's doing good because that was some of the best advice I ever got.
Go in the gym and hit those weights as hard as you can.
I mean, you know, he might've been a jerk, but you know, you thought that you were going to get like him eating jerk.
(02:21):
Yes. He was going to tell me, I thought he was going to give me the Holy grail of like, yeah, you need to eat strawberries in the morning and kale at night.
No, he said, go get some weights. Go do that. Go hit the gym.
No, I mean, that's probably, you know, Jamaicans, you know, shout out to all the Jamaicans.
You know, they're very blunt like that.
Listen to your uncles, don't do anything to your body that you'll live to regret.
(02:44):
You know, I know it's difficult, you know, when you see all of these big buff dudes on social media and they be lying about how they got their bodies.
But listen, that's another show for another day.
Yeah, no gear. Stay off the gear.
I mean, they be lying hard.
But listen, you need to appreciate what you have.
Like how's your personality, Jae? Do you got the rizz?
(03:06):
I saw your IG and you know, Jae, I saw your IG, because you DMed this question to us.
And you're a very talented artist.
But I mean, when you invest in yourself, no one can underestimate that.
All right. Your value lies within.
Don't place your value in what someone else has because that isn't your path.
(03:27):
I mean, look, look at the three of us. Look at the three of us.
We're all built differently, but we're all decent brothers.
Even if one of us was built like the other, we're still worthy of respect and love and grace and kindness.
Oven still cooks.
But Jae, good luck to you. If anybody out there, you know, you might be dealing with some type of body issues.
(03:48):
I mentioned this earlier, but you can text your zip code to 435748.
And they have people on standby with resources, you know, waiting to help you.
And you know, I got a resource too.
Stay off of social media.
That's it. That's my resource.
And that makes me sad. You know, it just that makes me sad because he's young.
He's 24 years younger than all of us. That’s real.
(04:11):
We got another one. Got another one.
And this one is this one is a lighter one.
And yall are going to like this one.
So this was from a guy named Wayne.
Wayne is 37 he’s from Jersey.
And Wayne asks the guys. Oh, boy.
Let's go. Yeah.
I've been getting these messages from this lady on LinkedIn. Ooh.
(04:33):
Telling me she wants to hook up with me.
Nice. That's not the place you do that. But OK.
Especially not on LinkedIn.
That's the wrong job you're looking for brother. LinkedIn is the club now.
At first, I thought she was a catfish, but I went to her page and she's real.
She works for my company, but at another location in the city close by, she's attractive and I'm interested.
(04:54):
She said she saw me in one of our Zoom meetings and wanted to get to know me.
Should I link up with the lady from LinkedIn?
You take this, Joey.
You're ready to go in.
Shoot yo shot, brother.
Shoot yo shot. I would say shoot yo shot because obviously she it’s not.
If it's confirmed, not a catfish situation.
(05:17):
She says that you've seen you guys do work together.
That is true. And she's seen you. So it's not like it's a random event type of thing.
And assuming that this is not any foul play type of thing, like she's trying to set you up, obviously.
Shoot your shot, brother. Go for that. I'll go for it. Why not?
Not too often do you have a woman that shows interest and is willing to go outside of their comfort zone to do something like that.
(05:41):
That's a very bold move.
Maybe you might like a bold move like that.
Maybe right now you're sounding like you're intrigued enough to want to see if this can be something.
So you only live once. Go for it. I'll say shoot your shot.
So Khai, I can't get rizz her up out of my head from last time.
You were like, yeah, rizz her up.
(06:02):
Like I had a meeting. So this is what happened. This is what happened.
I had a meeting and I showed up like extra early and I'm like, man, they're not going to let me back because I'm not on the schedule until 10.
So I go in and the secretary's there and she looks over and she looks like she's ready to go.
So Khai starts playing in my head. This guy over here, he starts playing in my head.
(06:23):
He's like, you got to rizz her up. And so that's what I did.
And she let me go early. Khai, what do you think of the LinkedIn linkup?
Relationships at work, right? I think for anything. We all love to thrill of.
What's the taboo about this is so great. We work at the same time.
It might say that brings similarities. Like, oh, you get what I'm talking from. You get this.
(06:47):
And it's an opportunity. But I'm one of those where I have to think about how does what I do now impacts me later on.
Now we can say it's an opportunity. But what if it doesn't go right?
Yeah, but they're not at the same location. So I see what you're saying.
But she's saying that because they're they only seen each other through a Zoom from what he just told me.
They only seen each other do a Zoom call. And it's not like we're in the same work like environment.
(07:13):
They have to say he works at a location in Jersey City and she's in a location in Manhattan, I'm assuming, because he said a city nearby.
OK, so it's so quick. But I was going to say, for example, in two or three years, we change our roles or positions.
Things change. Maybe you're my boss now and it didn’t end well for us.
And now you're not supposed to harbor those feelings that it comes in to play later on or, you know, it can impact.
(07:35):
That's why I say it's all hypothetical. Right. But you never know who someone holds that grudge later on,
because I've been in a position where it's like, yo, we good.
But now somehow you're… off where I am, where I'm not.
And now I report into you somehow because HR don't know what happened.
Yeah, but it can go the opposite way then also, because you might be like, we hit it off and nepotism is real.
(07:57):
Tell me, get some I'm a CEO because she got me up there. I don't know where I go to advise. I don't shit where I eat and no matter how much it needs to be.
Because I always say we all say, let's be adults about this. We all know that never happens.
No one else had to keep that group because they did. What if what it turns into?
Are we just we dating or we just talking?
Because now when we go to all the other office parties, you hear somebody see something.
(08:18):
How you not get your feelings because we're bringing those outside interactions into the workplace?
You know, I'm one of those people where I say to my friends, for example, don't hook up with any of my coworkers.
We out at a party or something because I don't be on teams.
Get a message like someone's with your boy. No, not my problem.
That's the worst.
Always like I try to avoid it.
(08:41):
They could be the baddest is like because I was like, it could go right.
But also what could go wrong? But at the same time, we're adults.
You know, I say we're adults, but you want to try it.
Right? It's just you be prepared for what potential consequences to come.
You know, it could go one way, but same time you could.
It's been like, how do you know what women are? You decide you're trying to smash and dash? Because that's going to come up very different with someone at work.
(09:06):
You get out. But it could be the love of my life.
We have the same ministry and next, you know, look at us. We're a love story.
So, you know, there's it's how intriguing is she?
If she's that intriguing, I would say go for it. If it's something that comes with more flags, then yeah, if it comes more flags than anything, then I probably wouldn't either.
But like I said, if she's beautiful, I think she's attractive. I think this is like a good this could actually be something real quick, even if it doesn't.
(09:32):
She doesn't have to be my forever person. But for the stage I am in my life right now that this can work.
I'd say go for it.
And it's like I would say inverse. She's being bold to reach out. So that's where that is. So she's clearly what she likes.
So, you know, go for it. But at the same time, yeah, be careful because HR is a real thing.
Like, yeah, like he he's harassing me now. Like whoa.
(09:57):
This is this is my thing, because I think, you know, as far as attraction, I think they're both attracted to each other.
I mean, he sounds like, you know, this kind of you know, Joey said it, women usually don't do that.
So like, this is a big deal. I think he's attracted to her physically.
I think he's also attracted to the fact that she hollered at him. And I think, you know, she's attracted to him to even do that.
(10:21):
So, Wayne, this is what I think you should do. This is what I want you to do. Meet up with her at a neutral location.
Now, you're in Jersey City. I'm assuming you work there, too.
You work in Jersey City. So and she's in Manhattan. How about this? You take the PATH, right?
Go to Journal Square. You take the PATH. Meet up somewhere in Midtown for drinks after work.
(10:45):
And this is what you do. Have one drink, just one.
Don't get trashed because HR comes into play before you start getting trashed like Joey said.
But just get a little something that will take the edge off so you can see where her head is.
And if her head is right, you know, invite her to an actual date, like not a restaurant or a bar, but like somewhere fun where you can engage in like, you know, some type of activity.
(11:09):
Now, I'm not saying you got to go rock climbing or kayaking, you know, but do something that involves, you know, an activity, you know, other than sitting and, you know, just rizz her up, like Khai says rizz her up.
So, yo, but the LinkedIn linkup is real though.
I've never seen that. I've never.
The LinkedIn linkup. I mean, wow.
(11:33):
We're all professionals. Settle down, guys.
But this is what I want to know. This is what I want to know. See, this is where we did all the advice stuff. Those were really good by the way.
We have more, we'll do them on another show.
So thank you everybody for that.
What's one of the wildest dates you've ever had, Khai?
So when I was on the apps and cruising around.
(11:57):
You had your Kool-Aid chain on, right? Did you have the Kool-Aid chain on?
No Kool-Aid chain, but you know, we only got a little something something for to catch your eye.
I was on...
Yeah, this one's I won’t tell.
It was one of those dates where we met through the apps and it was just, you know, all cool calm collective.
Everything's fine. But then after a while, we decided to meet up.
(12:22):
We're having a good time. You know, we go get brunch.
It was one of those Sunday fundays that turned into, holy shit, like, who's the adult here?
Who's gonna be the responsible one?
So we go for a boozy brunch and it's like, I can have one more.
But I'm like, we just had five crafts of mimosas, but let's just keep going because it's fun. It's all good.
(12:46):
Then, you know, for some of the spots I have in Brooklyn I like to go to, it's like, oh, I know the bartenders here is a little, you know, hey, so now we're getting free shots.
We're getting free drinks.
And it's just going from there and we keep, you know, bar hopping.
And it's about probably now seven or eight.
Now, mind you, she lives in Jersey City and doesn't drive.
So she has some out get from that to the PATH back over there in some way, shit before.
(13:09):
And I'm like, I ain't paying no...
But we get to my place. I'm like, well, you want to come kick it for a little bit, you know, like wind down, whatever.
We get to my place and I don't know where she just starts attacking me like, body on body. I'm like, all right, cool.
And then I'm like, you know, we have our fun, you know, gentlemen never tells.
(13:33):
We have fun. Yeah, I mean, we're going to keep it PG today.
It's a family show this morning. Yes.
But you know, after I hit this, Khai you can tell us everything.
You know, we can go for hours, but then it's like, OK, it's like 11, 12.
And I’m like how are you getting home? It's like, I'm not leaving.
(13:55):
I'm like, wait, what? Like, no.
I mean, I'm going to work. I got work in the morning. But no, I'll just do whatever I need to.
Blah, blah, blah. I'm like, no, no, no. Like, I need you to leave.
But that's when I didn’t have a voice on understanding of how to ask someone to leave after this point.
So now you were just being you're like, I'm hostage, my own apartment with this person.
I literally just could we talk a few days and now we're out here and the deed's done.
(14:19):
I'm good. I got what I wanted from this.
And so now it's like I'm wide awake because again, I can't fall asleep. I don't know this person. Are they going to rob me?
Like and the cat's no help. He's looking at me like, who the fuck is this person?
Literally, I had to stay awake till like 6:45 and be like like, hey, you going to go?
Yeah, I think I'll go home now. I'm like, OK, cool.
(14:42):
But like I'm now like tired as fuck. Wide eyed? And I'm like, did she still rob me?
Like, I don't know. Was there a moment?
You went into the bathroom. She got you for everything.
Oh, man. She took all your nice smelling conditioner. All your shampoos.
Yeah. You try to steal a whole lot of my colognes.
All I can say is she was a cousin of an infamous podcaster.
(15:06):
Nice. Oh, I know exactly who you're talking about.
Shout out to Communipaw Avenue. Joey, share with us one of your wildest dates.
I'm pretty I'm not going to lie. Like I don't have have wild dates.
A lot of like my my thing is man vanilla.
Like I'm I'm we're just going to dinner.
(15:27):
I'm a dinner specialist. Call me food bae if you want to.
Right. That's what I do. Like if I'm we're going to get some good food.
And then if I can't wine and dine you enough, then I guess I wasn't doing my job.
But usually one and I usually can't go wrong with a wine and dine situation so
Listen, let me tell you, Joey wined and dined, Joey and Britney wined and dined me! And it was good.
(15:48):
Yeah, that's the point. You got to want to get one and dine them.
And yeah, that's the battle right there. And I’m the homie.
You always find somewhere good to eat and then have wonderful conversation.
And then after wonderful conversation, then whatever leads into that.
After that, I've had more crazy times with like my friends and ending up in the wrong place in Brooklyn
because I was so drunk that I was in Manhattan and I thought I was on the on the E train to Queens.
(16:14):
But I'm on the M train to Brooklyn and yeah, it was crazy.
You want a crazy story?
You know what? We're not going to share that.
Yeah. Because you told me a crazy story when I was out with you.
That story. Yeah, that one was insane. I was like how in the world?
Yeah, well, you can you'll share that after the show.
That was wild. I was like yo son. Yeah, that's crazy. We were. Yeah. OK, so I have two.
(16:38):
I have tow because you all know me. I’m for everybody. So I have two.
So the first one was on Fourth of July.
It happened on the Fourth of July, not this Fourth of July, but it was Fourth of July one year.
And this young lady I was dating, she said, Hey, do you want to go see John Legend on the Parkway?
Everybody knows I went to school in Philly. I went to Temple. Shout out to Temple.
(17:01):
Temple! And I said, Oh, yeah, but, you know, like, are you ready?
Because she needs to take long to get ready.
Like, easily, this girl would take like two hours and 25 minutes to get ready.
Like, easily, easily. And I mean, this is in the mid 2000s.
So, I mean, you know, this is before lashes and weave and BBLs and everything.
(17:24):
So anyway, I said, yeah, sure.
So I go up to her crib and she's not ready. And I'm like, you know, we should have probably been inside the, you know, the gates three hours ago.
And she's just like, OK, well, what do you want to do? I'm like, have you ever been to Atlantic City?
No, she hadn't been to Atlantic City because she was from the Midwest.
(17:46):
She said, you know, no, I've never been. So I'm like, all right, cool. So we're going to go to Atlantic City.
So we get in the car and I really liked her. I liked her a lot.
I'll tell you more about her after this goes off because I'm trying to keep this clean.
But we took the scenic route down Atlantic City.
We didn't take Atlantic City Expressway, we went down Route 30, like we took the scenic route.
(18:08):
We talked. It took us like three hours to get there. So I said, yo, I have this card.
Because whenever you go to the casinos, they give you a card and you swipe it and put your points on whatever.
I said, we're going to go to Borgata. So she's like, OK, whatever.
I don't know what a casino is. Like, let's just do it.
So we get there and there's this slot machine there.
(18:31):
And Khai, it's called the hundred dollar slot machine.
Meaning you have to put a hundred dollars in the slot machine for one spin. For one chance one go.
For one spin. For one spin. Buffalo! Buffalo!
So Joe, that's like if exactly. So it's like if you win, if you win, you win.
Yes. But if you lose, you’re pissed because you lost a hundred dollars.
(18:54):
That's the hundred I needed for the whole date. Exactly.
I'm like, all right, look, I'm going to show you how to play the machine.
So something told me, don't let her play this machine.
Give her another machine to play. So I put some money in the machine or whatever.
And, you know, she played and she didn't win anything.
So then I go and I put my hundred dollars in the machine.
(19:17):
I fucking win. That thing lights up like ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Let's goooo. Now, I'm not going to say how much I won because I don't need you.
Well, I can say how much I won. That money's long gone. Yeah because the Feds be watching.
That money's long gone. No, I mean, it's long gone.
But I'll just tell you guys. So I won like…
(19:39):
Whaaaat? Off of that one fucking spin.
Off of that one fucking spin. That is insane. She was pissed.
Because that was the machine that she.
You took her. Exactly.
That was the machine that she was going to play. You were supposed to split that.
So I'm like, yo, I just hit. I went to the cage, you know, to get my get my check or whatever.
(20:00):
I'm like, I’m young, I just hit. Like, this is going to be lovely.
Like, we're going to stay here. She wouldn't speak to me.
We get back on the AC Expressway, way, mind you, it's Fourth of July. It's traffic.
We sat in traffic another three hours going back up to Philly.
I say, yo, you want something? You know, she wouldn't say anything.
So I stopped at Melrose Diner. So I got a food or whatever.
(20:24):
You know, I call her the next day. Her roommate picks up the phone.
This is back when people still had land lines.
Her roommate's like, I'm like, yo, you know, what's up? Like, what's going on with her?
She won't come out of her room. I'm like, well, did she eat?
Nah, the food's still on the counter. I said, well, do me a favor.
You know, heat it up, give it to her or something. Oh, she doesn't want to eat.
(20:45):
I'm just like, but I mean, what did I do? I didn't do anything wrong.
Like, I was really like smitten, like I was in love over this with this young lady.
Like, I was in love. So anyway, long story short.
So fast forwarding, my sister, God rest her soul, my sister passed away.
I was telling my sister about this, what happened.
(21:07):
And she said, you know, it wasn't meant for her to put that money in that machine.
It was meant for you.
Because if she put that money in the machine, she would have stopped talking to you anyway.
I said, you know what, sis? You're right. You're right.
And then, so, okay, so another crazy wild date.
We went to some restaurant in the village or something.
(21:30):
Like the food was nasty. He's like, yo, you don't like the food?
Like we could go to this spot on Long Island I know about.
He was from Long Island. He wasn't from your part of Long Island, Joey.
He was from like, Suffolk.
So he's like, yo, I know this restaurant.
I'm like, but how are we going to get there?
Like, I'm not riding L-I-R-R like you're smoking crack.
Like how are we going to go?
Ronkonkoma line.
He's like, yo, let's just, exactly.
(21:51):
See, this is why we have Joey and Khai on here.
Because they just be knowing things.
So I don't have to be here alone, like all in my own head.
So, so yo, so he's like, yo, we could take my dad's car.
I'm like, so you've been driving this whole time
and you've had me up and down on the subway like all day.
(22:12):
And you didn't say shit to me?
So anyway, so we go, so I'm like, where's your dad's car?
Oh, he works for NYPD.
You know, he parked over on such and such street.
So I'm like, all right, is he going to be okay with this?
Like, you know, his dad's NYPD.
I'm like, I'm not trying to, you know, get on anybody's bad side.
Exactly.
So he's like, nah, it's no problem.
So we go over, you know, we go over to his dad's, you know, where he parked at.
(22:36):
And you know, I meet his dad or whatever, dad's cool.
We get in the car.
The car is like this mid 90s, like big body Benz.
You know, the old chrome, you know, big body joints.
That's my favorite word, by the way.
Big body Benz.
Yes, big body Benz.
You can use that for people, places and things.
(22:58):
You can use it for everything.
It's amazing.
Yo, that pizza was a big body Benz.
It's just, you can use it for anything.
So we get in the car and we're just like riding around like joy riding in this pop’s
whip.
And so I'm like, yo, so what do you want to do?
Like, I mean, you know, it's like, well, you know, my dad, my mom and my dad, they're going
(23:22):
out of town.
Like, you know, my dad's going to I think Grenada.
My mom's going to Trinidad.
Like, you know, I'm going to be home alone.
So we're blasting music, whipping in and out of lanes on 495, just going
just reckless, reckless.
So we get out there and he stops at CVS and I'm like, what are you stopping at CVS for?
(23:43):
He's like, yo, you know, I want to I think we should hang out tonight.
We should go to club or something.
But, you know, can you dye my hair?
I'm like, cool, I can dye your hair.
We get the dye.
We get back to his house or whatever.
What do yall want me to tell you?
Because I don't...
Just keep on going.
(24:05):
You get to the house and what?
So we get to the crib.
We get to the crib.
I'm reading the box for the dye.
I'm doing all the stuff.
I've dyed my hair before.
Like, it's no big deal.
I've dyed my hair, dyed my beard.
I've done all of it.
So I'm putting, you know, the stuff in his hair.
And I’m like, yo, do you have anything in your head?
Do you have a texturizer or something like that?
(24:27):
And he's like, nah, you know, this is my natural curl.
And so I'm like, all right, man, you know, this is your natural curl.
I trust you.
The dye is going.
The clock is ticking.
Tick tock, tick tock.
You start seeing smoke above his head?
Start going crazy?
Ah, like the color starts turning like this weird color Joe, like it's like...
(24:51):
The color was supposed to be red, but it starts turning like this, acid orange or something.
It just looks crazy.
That's wild.
So I'm like, all right, listen, I think we need to wash this out early.
ASAP Rocky for sure. I think we need to do this.
Let's just do this.
So I'm washing his hair and it's coming out in like clumps.
(25:12):
Oh no, you burned through it.
I'm like, son.
Not the whole...
He knocked the toupee off.
He burned the toupee off.
So I said to him, I said, man, you know, it's okay if you had a texturizer, right?
He's like, nah, I didn't.
I think it was the dye.
It was something wrong with the dye.
And he's like, but can you give me a fade?
(25:34):
I'm like, so this happened before.
This has happened before.
Exactly.
Now I'm the barber.
I mean, you know, I can't help it.
Like I've always had a fly line up.
Okay.
We lining it up.
He wasn't upset because I mean, this is probably something that has happened in the past.
Okay.
You know what I mean?
Like it is.
(25:56):
Anyway, Joey.
Joey is our designated TV guy.
All right.
So Joey, what have you been watching lately?
So Netflix, I go through my Hulu Netflix.
I've seen Freaknik.
Freaknik was a good documentary.
I think it was the one about Georgia.
(26:17):
Yeah.
Yeah.
It started with a picnic and then it turned into something.
Cause you know, Uncle Luke had to.
Turned into a Freaknik.
Yeah.
And then it got a little predatory.
So Freaknik is a good little documentary.
A nice little quick watch on Hulu.
And then people who watch Netflix.
The Program is a good one right now.
(26:38):
It's about locking kids up because they were bad.
But of course the parents of these bad kids have money to afford to send these kids to
specialized schools where if you want it, you could have gave us the money.
If you wanted us to traumatize your kids, you would have just paid me 80,000 to traumatize your kids.
Did you see that?
Did you see the program?
I haven't seen it yet by me.
It's like being in upstate New York, you have friends that went away for a little bit.
(27:02):
It came back and you're like, what happened to like, yo, it's just my parents.
It's the only way to parents was like, you were doing the behavior, but what they were
doing to these kids, man, that's trauma.
Yeah.
I mean, they rather.
I watched it.
They said being locked up was being like they were in heaven being locked up like in juvenile
detention was better than conditions, which is insane.
(27:24):
It was crazy.
That was crazy.
Man.
You know, the thing about it is that really bothered me is that New York State knew about
this since ‘06.
So that's like 18 years at this point that they knew about this.
They knew what was going on.
And I'm just saying, like, typically we talk about like public schools being bad and all
(27:45):
these things going on, but you need to vet private schools too.
Yeah.
Because who knew that this was going on?
And I mean, there was a movie I saw on Lifetime.
It was called Cruel Instruction and they were girls.
It was a girls school and they were forced into this treatment facility being abused
and it's just it's crazy.
(28:06):
I mean, but that county upstate is called St. Lawrence County.
They're investigating the abuse allegations at the former Academy at Ivy Ridge and Attorney
General Tish James' office is now aware of the investigation and they're looking into
this as well.
So that's that's really good.
But Khai, what about you?
What’ve you been watching?
Well, I am a Law & Order stan than the Tubi movies I told you to watch.
(28:31):
Those two people, I still got to do it.
I haven't had a Tubi ratchet night in a minute.
Other than the Bag Girls, classic.
Right now, what I've been doing, get back into my Law and Order.
Right. I love me some Olivia Benson.
She's my she-ro. Catch up on that…
But actually, you know, I think I forget sometimes I don't use Amazon the way I need to.
(28:53):
Outside of just ordering stuff.
So Amazon, you know, Prime the videos there outside your typical shows like The Boys,
you know, some other stuff, you know, Invincible is back.
That's a great show.
This season it’s hitting hard already.
It's like, all right, let's get to the good stuff.
Also, just like the movie they put out because I'm like, where are you getting all this?
(29:14):
I mean, I know we're getting money Amazon for these big budget.
But like saw the Ricky Stanicky movie with John Cena.
What's his name from High School Musical?
Oh, Zac Efron and stuff.
That was actually pretty funny.
It actually worked. But actually, I just saw Roadhouse and it's my movie of 2024.
Roadhouse.
Jake Gyllenhaal. We like Jakey? Jake the snake.
(29:36):
It is. It has your action. It has your romance. It has your comedy. It has your serious.
Like, it's a feel good.
Like, this is like you're tuned in.
That's everything you need.
And is it kind of insane at times? Yes, because it's Roadhouse.
But that's like John Wick. John Wick gets insane also.
(29:57):
Exactly. So that’s what I’ll do I’ll just watch a movie.
So I get to spend a couple hours and then, yeah, that's it.
And then whatever game I'm watching on TV, you know, NBA season playoffs are coming soon.
March Madness Tournament. It's just weird as the older I get.
I stop watching because I'm like, I don't know any of these kids.
And I'll be damned if I let 19-year-olds predicate my happiness.
(30:19):
Nah those kids are good.
So I want to do a quick little shout out. We're talking about March Madness.
So my soon to be father-in-law, he took us to a Villanova game.
So we had nice court side seats and it was Villanova versus Creighton from Omaha, Nebraska.
Creighton? Yeah, I think it's Creightonton. Creighton, something like that.
(30:41):
Yeah, the Jays or something like that.
So number 23, number 55 and number 23. Them boys are good.
Number 23 is like, he looks like a mixed kid or something like that.
All of them do.
He threw that buzzer beater.
They had them by 20 in the beginning of the game. They kind of put the foot off, let them come back a little bit.
(31:04):
Last like 10 seconds of the game, it's tied up. Looks like it's about to go to overtime.
Everybody's holding each other and we're like, oh, what's going on?
Number 23 hits it. Money. Ends the game. Ends the game.
That's why they're number three. They were ranked number three. Those boys are good though.
Shout out to number 23.
Khai, me and you got beef real quick. We got beef real quick.
(31:25):
Even though Joey is our designated TV and movie guy, I blame you for my Tubi addiction.
It’s all your fault. Because on our last panel, you mentioned Tubi.
While we were on hiatus, I started watching Tubi and I'm addicted.
I mean, Joey, the other night Khai had me watching the Bag Girls and Bad Girls 2.
(31:50):
So like, let me set it up for you. Let me set it up for you.
It's pretty much Set It Off, right? But if they had BBLs and they lived in Miami.
Okay. I bet.
So like there's this scene.
It's a cheer competition?
No, that Set It Off like.
No, Set It Off with Queen Latifah.
Oh, you mean like a heist movie with chicks with BBLs.
(32:13):
Yeah.
I thought it was Bring It On, not Set It Off.
Not Bring It On. Where did you get Bring It On from?
I don't know. I deserve that.
Only Joey. Only Joey. Listen, let's clap it up for Joey.
So listen. Shorty's doing yoga in the park, right? There's this scene.
She's doing yoga in the park like Namaste and her sister's getting set up and her grandmom's getting murked.
(32:37):
And I'm like?
How’s she so calm right now?
So then she beats dude to death. Dudes all bloody.
And then she gives him a lap dance.
And I'm like?
The math ain't mathing.
And so they got these bedazzled shysties on and everything.
(32:59):
Yeah. Like.
Oh wow. Let's go.
Bedazzled.
Yo, shout out to the rapper Maino because Maino is in that.
You said Bad Girls Club?
Bag. B-A-G.
Bag Girls Club.
And Bag Girls 2.
There's two of them.
Yeah. Bag Girls. Part one and part two.
And now here's the hack though. Here's the hack.
(33:22):
Khai taught me the hack.
If you're watching on Tubi, you're going to get all of the ads.
You don't want to get all of the ads.
So you got to watch it on Prime.
If you go to Amazon Prime, you can watch it without the ads.
That's the way to do it.
That's the way to do it.
But see, here's the deal with Tubi.
I'm going to tell you all real quick.
I'm selective with my Tubi films.
(33:44):
I get bougie with the Tubi.
I want all the smoke.
All right.
I need bad lighting.
I need bad sound.
And there's a picture that's going to come up on the screen.
I need to see this brother right here.
All right.
This brother right here.
Lemastor Sprating.
And I need to see this hood Asian chick right here.
See this hood Asian sister?
(34:05):
He's in all the movies.
Sarah Evalt.
So if these two aren't in your Tubi movie, guess what?
We're not watching.
They're A-list Tubi stars?
A-list Tubi stars, Joe.
A-list.
So as long as I see at least one of them in the movie,
I got to see at least one of them.
As long as I see at least one,
I know it's going to be a memorable key.
(34:26):
A quality Tubi movie.
Exactly.
Also the actresses need to be going by their stage name
or Instagram name like Sarah The Body.
Exactly, Khai.
Exactly.
And you know what?
I got to see that white horse in the opening.
You know that white horse.
So wait, so wait, so wait, so wait.
So I jumped into the Tubi rabbit hole.
So there's this one, Joe.
(34:49):
It's called The Affair.
So now both of them are in this movie.
Both of them.
And so is the guy Don from Black Ink, from Black Ink, Chicago.
So this is the one where the pastor cheats on his wife
and he gets the side piece pregnant.
Classic.
And she names the baby after him.
Oh, classic.
Then she goes crazy and she starts talking to herself.
(35:11):
And then there's Please.
Then there's another one called Please.
And shout out to my nurse, Nicole, down at Penn.
Nicole, this is the one I was telling you about.
So Sarah's out there and she's torturing the men who did her wrong.
She got them tied up in the basement and everything.
And then there's Toxic Traits.
Now this one sounds like the chick that Khai was talking about earlier.
(35:33):
So it's this crazy, it's this Jill Scott looking chick.
And she has this thing called Othello Syndrome,
where she gets all obsessed with her partner.
And so she starts killing people with bleach injections.
She's nuts.
She's nuts!
Then there's, what else did I wee?
A Party To Die For.
And this was actually on Lifetime.
(35:55):
This was a Lifetime movie.
Shorty's out here clout chasing and she frames her friend for murder.
And then First Lady, one, two, and three.
That’s with Hoopz from Flavor Of Love.
Brigitte Nielsen?
No, Hoopz.
I can't remember her name, her real name.
But Hoopz, she was like the real pretty mixed girl.
(36:17):
Yeah she’s in that. I know Hoopz.
Jim Jones is in that one too, and so was Jennifer Williams.
But they only in it for a minute.
It's like, they’re just here to get a check or whatever.
And then there's another one called Lawnmower Man.
And that's where the wife is smashing the gardener.
And he gets obsessed with her.
So are you going on to be finding the title and then going back to Prime to watch it?
You know what it is, they suggest them.
(36:39):
No, they suggest.
So like after you watch one, like something else pops up,
it's like a suggestion.
And then, you know, so this other one right here, this one is crazy.
This one's wild.
It was called Passionate Betrayals.
And it's the singer, I remember her from a group back in the day called The Good Girls.
And then there's this other chick, she's a choreographer.
She's got blonde hair.
(37:00):
She got really nice abs.
So they play downlo lesbians, it's kind.
And they’re in a plot to kill their husbands.
These are their husbands right here.
They in a plot to kill their husbands.
It's crazy.
And then in an ending, it doesn't end how you think it's going to end.
The ending was just like.
I'm not surprised.
(37:21):
It was like whoa
And then there's another one.
It had like the killer sex dolls.
It's called Tiffany The Doll.
A sex doll that kills you.
Nice.
So you kill the sex doll figuratively and she kills you literally.
Yo.
That one ended crazy.
(37:42):
Khai you gotta watch that.
That's going to be the next date night.
You guys want to watch some of my terrible movies?
It could turn into one of those three day date nights.
They're only an hour 20.
They're not long at all.
There's so much plot in such a short time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, listen, I just, I don't know, man.
They're addictive.
I have taken a break from them because I'm on a different wavelength right now.
(38:06):
And rest in peace to Irish from 702 because she's in that movie that Tiffany The Doll.
But what else?
The Marriage Pass, Twisted Marriage Therapist, Twisted Date
Anything with twisted in it.
It's going to be good running that.
Yo, she messed Drake up real bad too.
Like the guy looks like Drake, doesn't he?
(38:28):
He looks like Drake.
She messed him up.
The Drake look.
Anything with twisted in it, like it's just, you got to watch and then Khai.
Immortal City Records, you got to watch that.
It was like Empire on Shrooms.
Oh, I like Empire.
Now on Shrooms?
Yo, Joe, it's like Empire on Shrooms.
Like it was nuts.
(38:49):
It was trippy.
It's crazy.
And again, it doesn't end like you would think it would end.
So the wildest one though, like, and I know all of these sound crazy,
but probably the craziest one was this one called Red Flagz.
And Red Flagz was crazy because the ending comes out of nowhere.
Like all of these, the ending kind of comes out of nowhere.
(39:11):
But this one, like, this movie was a comedy.
And then the ending is just like totally different than what you would expect from a comedy.
Okay.
So I shouldn't know.
Listen, man, I got to blame Khai for this.
I got to blame Khai.
It’s all Khai's fault.
Because I knew Khai would get me addicted to something.
Because you remember what I said about his homies last time out in Brooklyn.
(39:35):
What were trying to do to me.
I tell you, man, that damn Khai, it's always one of these two.
It's always one of these two.
There's always something.
If it's not Joey trying to get me drunk at a comedy show.
That was epic.
Is Khai trying to get me drunk at a, you know, at something else, at a kickback or whatever.
But you know what?
(39:57):
Speaking of Joey, though.
Joey, Joey, you got a doppelganger out there, too.
Lakeith Stanfield is your doppelganger.
You know who Lakeith is.
He played in?
Atlanta.
Darius from Atlanta.
Yeah, Lakeith Stanfield, the actor.
I got to look at that.
I got to see.
I got to double check.
Here's LaKeith right here.
So listen, LaKeith Stanfield is in this show on Apple+, Apple TV.
(40:22):
It's called The Changeling, and it's based on this 2017 book with the same name.
I won't give too much away, but it's like it's really dark and suspenseful.
It's a really good show.
So if you have Apple TV, you guys check it out.
Oh, and our friend to the show, Mugga, is in the show.
She's in the show.
She's in episode three.
So shout out to Mugga.
Hey, Mugga.
(40:43):
There's this surgical procedure out.
It's called keratopigmentation.
Now, it's an outpatient procedure that changes the color of a person's iris.
That's the colored part of your eye.
Now, keratopigmentation is considered to be safer than iris implant surgery, which
was made popular by Tiny Harris, you know, T.I.
by Tiny from Xscape several years ago.
(41:06):
And it's less complicated than this other surgery called iris laser, laser iris pigmentation,
which, you know, has been used clinically for aesthetic purposes.
Why are you throwing lasers?
See, that's going back to the body dysmorphia.
Without receiving official approval.
Why are you throwing lasers in your functioning eyes?
So listen, so wait, so wait, so wait, let me let me let me finish.
Let me finish because I'm going to you first.
Let me finish.
(41:27):
Let me finish.
So while keratopigmentation has been done for over 15 years, it has only been available
in the United States since 2019, locally in the New York City tri-state area.
So it starts around $11,700.
Joey, what's it giving?
It's giving.
(41:49):
It's giving.
Not my it's giving.
Not my not my eyes.
I'd rather be.
And also I wear glasses.
I'd rather be.
I don't even wear contacts.
I don't like to touch my eyes.
So sticking lasers and doing all types of other stuff like that.
I probably wouldn't just because it's close to my brain.
It's too close.
(42:10):
Oh, oh, man.
All right.
Khai what’s it giving?
I was going to say I'm going to say privilege, privilege.
Yeah.
I was going to say privilege.
Like the fact that I'm spending this as an abnormal large amount to do something benign.
(42:31):
I look at it like it's really like, oh, and then there's like five different choices.
I can do something crazy, go red, but will actually stay red the entire time or something
else will happen.
But it's privilege the fact that I can spend this amount of money on something that may
permanently damage me.
But like it's a fun of it like woo.
I'm all for cosmetic enhancements.
But for me, like this just seems excessive.
(42:54):
And I mean, if you look at some of these colors, some of them are actually nice and believable.
And I mean, even up close, but then the other ones are just like straight up demonic.
And so for me, it's giving thriller.
That's what it’s giving.
(43:16):
Physical appearance is what you like it.
Like a lot of people said that to me because I wear like wearing the big Afro mohawk and the gauges and the things like that.
Like they're like me just doing that.
I'm like, well, I like that because it's a little bit more personality, a little bit more style, flair type of thing.
Right. He’s alternative! More rizz!
But people look at you like you're projecting you're projecting an outward appearance that you like.
(43:42):
What do you think when somebody looks at you?
What do you think they're looking at?
And I'm looking at it like, well, I would think that they think that I'm a cool type of hipster, maybe like rock kind of kid type of thing.
One, you're not a kid.
So I don't think a curly mohawk is going to give you rock stars and gauges are not giving like that is not giving all of the things that you might be thinking.
But that's how that's where I'm personifying that's or that's what I'm projecting it as.
(44:07):
But sometimes are the projections that you want are you putting out there are those reflective of what you're really trying to put out there?
Because some people some people want to turn into a tiger.
The guy he literally does everything and now he's a tiger.
He's a human man tiger.
And that's what he wants the world to look at him.
The more things that he can change about him to be closer to what a tiger looks like.
(44:28):
He's the guy. He's a tiger.
He will be a tiger at one point. You know what I mean?
Humans love body modification.
I mean, me and Joey appears for the gods like I have piercings.
You just can't see them. Prince Albert?
I'm not going to show my piercings right now.
But I mean, but here's my question though.
Khai, what are you coming over to the dark side with me and Joey?
(44:50):
When are you getting some piercings?
I mean, I got my ears here.
I mean, you know, that's I'm but I'm talking like, you know, you know, something a little more, you know, edgy.
Yeah, where's the edge?
I always feel like my tattoos are the edge.
That's like where I get my like that.
(45:12):
But honestly, it's I don't know what I would get or where…
I don't know what else I would do like besides my ears, maybe get something up here.
I thought about a nose ring. I thought about a nose ring.
But I'm like, it's all cute and shit.
(45:33):
But like, I'm a thug.
And then I thought about a dermal, you know, right here.
I honestly it's one of the things of the care.
Maybe eyebrow maybe Khai, maybe eyebrow piercing.
I never thought about the aftercare.
I'm terrible because even this right up here, this one got infected.
(45:57):
Because I’d just like leave it in and not really clean it properly.
So I'm like, I don't know if I can handle that pain.
But I thought about it. It's honestly it's on the list.
But it's like I really go more like tattoos get the whole like have body full sleeve on that before I get a long piercing.
I'm going to need the needle for a tattoo before I'll get a simple boop.
(46:20):
Yeah, but I know the more that I'm getting older, the less I want to get a tattoo.
It's like it was fun at 20 whatever.
Like I might want to do it, but it's not like I'm not rushing to do it like I used to.
Like there's no tattoo.
It's a tattoo.
Yeah, the thrill of the needle is gone at this point.
(46:41):
I want it wouldn't it wouldn't tantalize tease me like it used to.
I have any.
I have any tattoos.
Yeah. My body is a canvas and I do what...
So I'm the canvas because I don't have any tattoos.
I can never decide on what I wanted to put on me permanently.
And I mean, they have these new tattoos.
They're called ephemeral.
I don't even know how to pronounce it.
It's right here.
(47:03):
But they're tattoos that they last for probably 12 to 15 months and then they fade.
They fade naturally your body just absorbs it.
And I thought about getting one of those just to see how like something would look.
But piercings for me have always been the thing.
Like I've had like quite a few different piercings.
Like when I was younger, I had this thing in here pierced.
(47:25):
But the aftercare kind of freaked me out because I said to the guy, OK, so how do I clean it?
And he's like, oh, just, you know, some warm water.
I'm like, OK, you mean like warm water on the outside?
It's like, no, you can just water through it.
I'm like, yeah, no.
So that lasted like a week. I got that that taken out.
I mean, but, you know, Aunt Bootsy, guess what?
(47:49):
Khai’s getting his eyebrow pierced. My mom would lose her shit.
Crazy. Yeah. Not accepted in the Black community, maybe. Ok.
But but remember, it's crazy because we're talking about body modification.
You remember guys Star wrote in about her boyfriend, her fiancé coming home from prison with the speed bumps in his penis.
So, I mean, yeah.
(48:13):
How did he get that in prison? That's a lot of so many questions with that speed bumps in prison.
Many questions. Well, she left him. Well, listen, she left him.
They you know, she left him. But, yeah, it was like, did he put him in?
Did somebody else put them in?
Like, did you so many questions that your man is coming out prison with this?
And then my first question was, what was he doing in there?
(48:34):
Was he in South America? And she's like, no, he was in Coxsackie.
And I'm like, we all know Coxsackie. You know, it's upstate.
And I'm like, they're doing this at Coxsackie? Like, what's going on in the prison system?
Ca-sacky. But listen, Khai’s from upstate, some Khai knows how to pronounce all that stuff.
