TikTok was being a whole hole aboutthis. Like so when I put it

What the so like you just hadthe static photos still with you in the

And I'm just like, y'all don'tsee me just standing there eating banana bread,

(02:17):
drinking all the milk as all thesepeople go ahead. Sorry, like
like it was just like the biggest, the biggest fuck you could have ever
given me I'm still getting comments fromit, Like, I mean, it
was decent. It was, itdid decent, but you know, I

(02:38):
had one hating ass motherfucker was likeit wasn't all that good. I was
just like OK. And then somebodyand then somebody came right, No,
somebody actually got up underneath him,and it was just like, yeah,
well it's better than what you putout. Oh, you didn't put out
anything, damn right. So solet's it's just just for posterities. Let's

(03:01):
get before we go into like talkingabout the last week or so or two,
let's quickly recap what has transpired sinceuh the last since the Kendrick with
mar Drake special, literally the dayafter or two days after I got a
job. Well no, I wasmainly talking about what happened with the Beaf,

(03:24):
But yes, Brian did get ajob and I tried Rittlin for the
first time today. That was aninteresting experience. But I digress. Uh,
it's been quiet, uh well asfar as as far as like drops.
No, so Drake is kind oflike losing his ship a little bit.

(03:47):
So uh please let me please fillme uh please fill in the gaps
for my probably recount. I knowI'm going to miss some stuff. There
was a shooting at Rake's house whereapparently the Weekend's crew was sort of implicated
in that. And then and somebodywas shot one of his drink security guards.

(04:13):
And then it comes out later thatso like if people are losing the
ship, oh my god, oVio and the Weekend are at war and
ship blah blah blah blah blah,and then it comes out two, he
can't but go do that. Nobodywants that. Nobody wants that. No,
nobody, but if they have theseason two they could do it with
the idol god anyho. But apparentlyit was all a setup. Nobody like

(04:43):
it was actually all fake. Nobodyactually shot at Drake's ship. The Toronto
Police verified. And now Drake hasmoved his son overseas uh to live with
his mom. With his mom andand Drake is has sold most of his
American properties. He has one leftin nine o two one. Oh,

(05:10):
why the funk would he keep itin California? That's crazy. They loved
going after rich duge bags. Dude, they love going after rich black people.
But on but on the kenchic sideof right, and on the kenchic
side of things. Not Like Ushas undone a lot of Spotify records that
Drake has said, so in thepast week and a half, Not Like

(05:39):
Us became the fastest and biggest growingstreaming uh single for a rap for a
rapper in history. A dude justalso want to add there were a few
more intruder attempts at Drake's property.I think it was like two or three
total. I think there was avandalism people people like, yeah, I

(06:05):
think they're outside of that. Thereare some just a couple other bad pr
things on Drake's side. There's aTikToker you slash YouTuber who was like reacting
and breaking down his Drake's lyrics andstuff, and he was sent a cease
and desist, like not just likea not just like a copyright takedown,

(06:25):
but like just a straight up likeOBO sent him with their lawyers a legit
saying stop pointing out that Drake keepstalking about him wanting to bar Kelly girls
and ship. There was the factthat I forget the ring name of the
rapper, but like Drake paid likea rapper, like quarter million dollars to

(06:46):
get some beef on Drake and themotherfucker was like, here's a bunch of
fake ship and ran with the money, which is exactly what I would do
in this situation, and I probablyend up getting Drake. Kendrick could kick
back for the for the courtesy.Oh oh. The wild thing about that
rapper is he wrote for Drake.That's funny. It was Drake because he

(07:12):
was one. He was one ofhe was one of the twenty. The
ops are calling from inside the house. Yeah, pretty much. But I'm
gonna be honest, and we spentanother second talking about Kendrick or Drake.
I am going to eat some gravel. That's what. That's fair. The
last thing I want to say isthat King Yanalius, who wrote the BBL

(07:34):
Drizzy that metro boom and sampled fromhis ship, got taken off of Spotify
two, which is it's so wild. Yeah, that's fucking crazy. Warner
Brothers was working overtime, but asomething I wanted to discuss, go for
it. Have you guys seen thatDiddy video? Yes, I saw yesterday,

(08:01):
and I have no idea what youguys are talking about. Please inform
me, may I of course?Ahead. Okay, So when Cassie brought
up that the lawsuit right earlier thisyear about the abuse that she went through
with Diddy. One of the instancesthat she brought up was the fact that

(08:24):
she was trying to leave a hotelroom. Didd He came out get her
in the heads so hard, realquick. Diddy was drunk asleep in the
hotel room. Cassie sneaks out intothe hallway go ahead, so so as
she's waiting on the elevator, diddHe comes sprinting down the hall wrapped in

(08:48):
a towel and goes on the sideof Cassie's head, docks her down,
knocks her out. This is theman that starts just rate for really listening.
This is the guy who's so obsessedlyin love, allegedly with this woman.
He has hanged grown ass men bytheir ankles over three story buildings.

(09:11):
Yes for talking to them in passing. He's not grown up cars. Also
the same dude who made I'm ComingHome album. No for real, this
motherfucking produced for Biggie. What'sn't Diggylike Biggie like married and ship? Uh

(09:39):
No, I don't. I don'tthink he was married. I think he
had a baby mama, But Idon't think he had a baby mama,
and he his girlfriend was Faith Evansand his you know, side piece was
little Kim. But yeah, Idon't think this is youtubable, meaning the
video. We're not going to reactto it, but it's a horrible,
rotting video. And her husband,I think, said everything perfectly real.

(10:03):
Men do not attack women, donot put hands on women, do not
even think about it. And don'tget me wrong, I'm a rage for
a little fuck, but there's oneboundary that I will never cross, and
that's putting hands on a woman forany fucking reason. Like I'm just gonna
defend myself, meaning that I'm I'mgonna get away from you. I'm gonna
push you away. Brian has hislid for anger is so much shorter than

(10:31):
mine, and his in his abilityto just reach heights of of desibel and
anger at like however, like howlike it would justify like it's insane,
but he but I can prefer hedoesn't. I'm i walk out like I've
walked. You have to, youhave you have to. You cannot put

(10:52):
your hands on another human being,period, You cannot. You can't.
I don't care how angry you are. I like I like, like I
have to I'm not gonna say that. I let's just say that when my
when someone in my life has isto interact with certain members of their family,

(11:16):
that I have to carry myself ina way that I that I know
that if I do something different,it's not going to end well for anybody.
So I will also like to addthat, as of yesterday, the
LAPD has said, although we've seenthe video, although we've known that this

(11:39):
has happened, unfortunately it is outsidethe stature of limit statute of limitations,
which was three years from the incident. Three years. Yeah, I think
it took place, what twenty sixteenor twenty sixteen sixteen. That is the
thing. We have all the evidence. No fms are about who it is,

(12:03):
No offms are about who the victimis. But because it happened a
little too long ago, it doesn'tmatter. YO. You'd be you'd be
amazed how much sexual assault and harassmentcases get thrown under the rug because the
statue of limitations. The only thingthat doesn't have statue of limitations is murder.
Apologies. I just want to say, I just want to say sexual

(12:26):
assault shouldn't have a statute of limitations. I agree, Nope, Like,
like I would say that specific likespecifically said, like if you like,
here's the thing, if I ifI sucker punch you, and like fucking
if I sucker punch you because youlike if like you said something slick to

(12:48):
me, and when I was youngand stupid and I sucker punch you at
like eighteen and you come after meat like forty five, that's kind that's
like what the fuck, dude,are you fucking kidding me? Like,
but like you know, sexual assaultis just people live with that for the
rest of their lives. It's it'sI don't give a ship like that that
needs to that needs to not havea substatute of limitations. I'll say this

(13:13):
though. I'll say this though regardlessI think I said, I think I
said it needs to have needs tonot have my body. Yeah. So
regardless if this if did he getscharged for it or not, which he
won't, it still looks very verybad for him. Passed. Look no,
no, no, see very quickly. I'm sorry to answer up,

(13:35):
but this, this is what Iwanted to say in every other high value
case. Right, I'm just gonnathrow out the ones that I can fucking
remember Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby.I know that's not exactly the same realm,
but there was no physical evidence thatshowed what actually happened. It was
always testimony. You have evidence,recorded evidence of this motherfuck it brutalizing women

(14:01):
a woman, but we know itgoes further than just one. So here's
the thing. I think this isthe time. This is like the r
Kelly moment, right, this iswhere people are either gonna be okay with
the fact that he pissed on agirl or the fact that that's too far
for people. But this this isn'ttwo thousand, This isn't two thousand and

(14:22):
four. No, like yeah,but twenty twenty four, I'm still seeing
comments about how they want to tryand take a black man down. So
that's why we ask you can't blamemen for being fucking stupid women too,

(14:43):
because they were also the ones sayingit can one girl like you can know
for for being fucking stupid. Iknow, like, like here's my thing,
Like I mm, I like,like my partner sometimes says in her

(15:05):
own anger, some heinous ship tome. But you know what, like
not never in a million years didwhat I think about running half naked down
the hallway to soccer and retaliation forthat, let alone put her hit my

(15:26):
hands on her at all in thefirst place and kick her on the ground
while she was on the floor.Yeah, like he did that twice and
then dragged her back into the room. Yes, I don't. I don't
think here's the thing. I don'tthink there is anyone at present short of

(15:52):
red Pill, Man of Sphere,morons and pick mees, who is actually
pressed about did he going to prisonfor this? Ship? Oh yeah,
no, that's not what I wastrying to claim a bitch about it on
his streen and I was just goingto make some kind of like bullshit Twitter

(16:12):
rant, you know, like justpearly things is going to like like like
Victim Blaine, Cassie, we allknow this is what's gonna happen. But
pragmatically this isn't no for anymore,you know, if our like there's a
reason R Kelly went to fucking prison, but there was alt took fifteen years

(16:33):
longer than it should have. Butevan, alternatively, there is that I
don't even want to say strictly black, but like celebrity association that regardless of
what he may or may not havedone. He is still going to be
idolized in the eyes of idiots,right, And I'm just saying, but

(16:56):
R Kelly, in today's dandage,I'm not saying that. I'm not saying
that there aren't going to be peoplethat idolize Diddy, But a Dinny was
not as big as R. Kelly, Right, and R Kelly like like,
what what what has happened with thisis is that there is now a

(17:18):
clock on Ditty's relevancy, just likehow the clock on Suge Knights, Just
like how like should Knight going toprison and getting nailed and all that ship
started? The clock on is relevancy. And now we're very quickly I think
we're traveling to a conversation that Iwasn't trying. All I was trying to

(17:40):
say was let me just finish.Is just I don't understand why being provocative
on something like this is the thingpeople choose. That's what I mean,
Internet, Internet, Internet points,no Internet points. But I'm saying there
there's a million different things you couldbe provided one that wouldn't you know,

(18:02):
possibly call your employer into question,your life into question, all these things.
That's all I'm saying that's all.But then I also want to talk
about because for my fellow Apple users, my fellow iPhone users, it's been

(18:22):
a very cold day in hell fora very very long time, and finally
the shutout. Finally we have discoveredwe have gained access to a thing called
an emulator. Now, if you'relike me and you look at Retrogaming,

(18:44):
I'm talking about Game Boy Advance,game Boy Color Color all the way to
the nes and this nests. Okay, if you look at those times and
you say, I wish on mybig flat screen TV one day I could
just play I don't know, uh, Super Mario Bros. Or Pokemon Emerald

(19:04):
or Pokemon Coliseum. You name it, my boy, you name it,
you name it. Go in them, Go fuck yourself. My fault that
Apple takes. That Apple implements featuresthat Samsung's had for at least four years.
By the time y'all get it,y'all talk about me interrupting. Can

(19:29):
we not enjoy this though? Canwe? No? No, I want
to be very clear, I'm buttingy'all shops. I'm happy, y'all guys
have access to this. I'm happy, y'all listen, I'm all for let
me. Let me just tell thefans Delta. If you go into the
app Store and you download Delta,I'm gonna be very honest. I don't
know a good emulator site for allthe ROM hacks that you're gonna have to

(19:52):
figure out yourself. Vimslayer got andwe're not. Vimslayer's got nailed. It's
not good anymore. There's just lookaround on Reddit, look around on stuff.
You'll find some people who will dropsome stuff. Just do yourself a
favor when you do find a goodROM site. Don't blow that ship up,
but let your homies out, letyour hombies. But like you got

(20:15):
cheap and under wraps, because themore people that know about it there it's
going to be I gotta plug whoknows all the good ship, And I
asked him for his recommendations because he'sone of those deep web toor crawling motherfuckers.
I will say, if if youwant to do it the legitimate way,
there's a fifty dollars thing that takesyour game Boy cartridges, turns them

(20:37):
into actual rems, and then youcan fucking put that shit on the phone
through your computer. If you wantto go the full legitimate way, but
you do have to own the fuckinggames and know where they are boys the
cups, uh, thieves and beggars. And that's all I'm gonna say about

(21:10):
that. Oh, can I havea topic? I Flora George, because
as an educator, as someone whohas worked in education for the majority of
his professional career, one of thebiggest things that has been going around this
week was if you have been onTikTok, if you have known about this,

(21:32):
there is a male teacher who recentlygot fired because he decided to go
live and have several of his eighthgrade students unbraid his hair on live.
Now, why is this such abig thing. I don't know. Let's
just take a let's take a let'stake a look at things. If you
have a social media outlet that heis monetized, and you are getting money

(21:56):
from this, and you are puttingsomebody else's children on this live doing something
is intimate. It may not seemlike it's It may seem like it's innocent,
like doing somebody else's hair. Thisis a grown man. These are
children under the age of eighteen.These are children that have to sign a

(22:22):
waiver to their school in case theyhave in case their pictures or videos are
taken for anything for the school's purpose. This man is not under that that
waiver. His social media is notunder that waiver. But the problem is,
shortly after he gets fired for this, he had his students send him

(22:45):
text messages. I'll say that again. These are eighth grade kids sending him
text messages. They have his phonenumber, calling him best d Okay,
very very quickly, here's what Iwant to say in this day and age

(23:06):
twenty twenty four. I don't havea child. I'm twenty four years old.
I don't have no kid. Ihave no stake in the game currently,
right, do you not? BecauseI remember being in high school having
at least a group chat with myteacher in every single one of my classes,
So I could text my teacher atany point, but other students would

(23:29):
see whatever I said. So evenif I said, I think if it
just stopped at bestie that sure,Yeah, it's a little weird. I'm
not going to sit here and saythat I want my child texting their teacher
bestie and anything else like that.But I disagree a little bit with your

(23:51):
position here. I agree with thesentiment that they needed to sign a waiver
for being on live and shit likethat my thing is, And especially because
I saw comments in the under theinitial video. If he was a woman
and didn't record it, this wouldnever be an issue because there are plenty

(24:11):
of black, black women teachers whohave led students, fuck with their hair,
take braids out, put braids in, she puts braids in, takes
braids out of the children. Sowhere are we drawing the line? May
I say something real quick? Ofcourse, go ahead, and then just

(24:33):
I think that each one of theseissues the issue of being on a live
stream, the issue of the issueof them live streaming it, the issue
of the group chats, and theissues of the kids. Uh uh do
like redoing his his his braids andshit are are individually okay in a vacuum.

(25:00):
And here's what I mean to Brian'spoint, chat with your students makes
sense to me. Granted that's alittle past like granted I'm a little older
than Brian. I graduated about well, we maybe two years apart. I
graduated I was a senior, whilehe I think was a sophomore or like
freshman or June or sophomore. Myparents, my parents were listen, I'm

(25:25):
older than both of you. Iyeah, so, but but I'll have
a point when you finished yours.Yeah yeah, so yeah, like yeah,
my parents were stupid and thought Iwas smart at three and put me
in a pre K whatever. Butand then and then, you know,
I can see at you know,a black teacher, you know, a
bunch of like black girl like blackeighth graders coming up, says mister so

(25:48):
and so your roots are fun.Can we fix your ship at lunch?
Mm hmm, you know, andlike that and that and that that like
that to me, like it issomething that like I think like that's innocent
enough situation. I think all threeof those in a vacuum are okay in
the sense of, like I thinkit's cool of like a teacher live streaming

(26:08):
with his kids and like it isdoing his lesson planned and like talking about
kids, and like I think thatis a cool way of engaging with the
students. Granted probably should okay withthe parents, but like if you're like
the type of teacher where it's likeyou're running a club and it's absolut hours
and like you're in like like youwere this, you were these kids safe
person at the school. I thinkthat's okay. But I think that when

(26:30):
you combine all three of these together, I think that's absolutely I think like
I think it's a shit store waitingto have. Yeah. So so here's
what I so, here's what Isay. Here's what I say. When
it comes down to using cell phonesto communicate with students, I personally believe

(26:52):
that there is a certain boundary thatmust be set in place. Now the
group now, the group chat thing, the group chat thing that you brought
up, that's brilliant. That isbrilliant. I remember I've known I had
to do that several times with myoverbound students. And then we also have
you know, we also in theage of you know, technology, we

(27:12):
had a Facebook group for our overboundstudents and that's how we communicate with our
students. But as far as personalcell phones calling us after hours, all
sources of our sort of night nathat that's where I y'all lined there when
it comes down now, when itcomes down to doing hair, and yes,

(27:33):
I know I'm ball headed. Idon't have a dog in that fight,
but we're not gonna go there.I've seen the pictures when you've had
hair. I know you have hairin the past, you can speak on
it. Just because your head burnswhen you like, when alcohol touched it
doesn't mean it always did an okay, so, but when it comes down

(27:56):
to doing hair now, that allin itself is dodgy to me. And
here's why. Here's definitely do whatI say. We'll dis view that when
it comes if it's a teacher toa student, it definitely depends on the
context. I would I would say, if you're we're talking about a black

(28:19):
woman teaching black girls how to braidhairs, they're dummies for that. There
are literally hair dummies for that purpose. Where you don't, I know,
it probably would make more sense tohave a human, uh, a human
head to work with. But ifthey're all peers, they all can do

(28:42):
each other's hair, and that's fine. My problem is, this is a
grown man with a whole bunch ofgirls around him braiding his hair. That
just feels creepy to me. Itmight be me that's also creepy, but

(29:03):
granny but also granny. I eitherteachers like either, and that's okay.
For like, I don't believe Ibelieve that with certain amounts of context,
something like that could be okay,but like again, intimate, like intimate
contact like that with with between teacherand student of any gender is generally not

(29:26):
super appropriate. Yeah, Like ifI remember, like if it was not
my mom or anybody that was amaternal figure with me, anybody touching my
hair, I'm I'm aroused. That'sthat's just girls playing in my hair was
a whole thing. Who's to sayhe and he didn't feel that same way?

(29:52):
Is that a big reason why?You know, black people get so
upset when white women randomly look,they do it without permission. They do
it without permission. That's a wholenother ship because like, yeah, I'm
going look, I don't like whenpeople touch my ball head. I was

(30:15):
at a club one day, Ihad my hands full. This girl came
out of nowhere and just started dancingin front of me, like and then
started rubbing my hair. Cussed herclean the funck eyes, Like, if
you're gonna get shod as hands,throw both of these drinks on your face.
Have you have you ever? Haveyou ever considered a plunger for you

(30:38):
for somebody has something to grab onto. I hate you, your dollingess just
to funk with him one day,You dude, just gotta buy a new
plunger and just what with me?You're kidding me? I look that ship.
That's some content. Fuck you onthe last, put on my last

(31:00):
part, on my last. Yeah, there are some other things that occurred
with him had involved underage students.There was a girl that had made a
TikTok about how much she likes Emoboys with Emo haircuts, and he stitched
that with a filter with him havingan Emo haircut. This was a teenager.

(31:22):
See, I won't tell you aboutthat. That's fucking weird, you
know anything. Here's the thing,Here's here's the thing. I I think.
I think all of this ship,like I said, I mean saying
that all of the ship could havebeen explainable within a vacuum. Yeah,
and also he's a cree. Myonly position is consistency. If the administration

(31:48):
walks into any room in any classroomacross the country and she's a teacher with
a student physically fucking with their hair, whether it's to the student, to
the teacher, if every if we'resaying that with this guy, it looks
weird, especially with this other contextthat we now now have. Let's just

(32:12):
apply the rule. Let's just applythe rule consistently among all people. Because
my thing is, this is mybiggest pet peeve with everything nowadays is everything
is so middle area of gray.And see I see this, and I'm
kind of like, well, he'sa male, he's automatically kind of seen
as a you know, sexual being. And especially since it's in the context

(32:37):
of school and pre pubescent or rightaround puberty, and men in positions where
they are in charge of taking careof children are already looked at some society
in a pretty leary way by default. And don't get me wrong, don't
get me wrong, like, thereare so many calls for black male teachers

(32:59):
to be but it's not just forthe girls. It's mainly for the boys.
It's mainly for the boys for mensorship. But then, just tell me
something, though, as an eighthgrader, can you really differentiate knowing that
you trust this man, you trustthis woman, this woman plays plays in

(33:19):
your hair, you play in thiswoman's hair, and that's okay, But
then this guy did it and he'sfired now Like that, That's what I'm
saying. In the context of thechildren, That's why I understand why they
were giving out you know, theoutpouring of support and shit like that.
If it went further like with theStitch video, then I'm like that,
shit's weird. But I do understandwhy they were immediately like mister so and

(33:42):
so, Oh my god, Ican't believe this happened. Da da da
da da. You know. Yeah, But and it also goes into the
fact that they're also It is perfectlyfine to build the relationship with your students.
It is perfectly fine, however,but there needs to be very clear,
very present, very succinct boundary boundariesto where they know that you are

(34:07):
a teacher, you are a mentor. I will never ever be a best
seed with any student. I willhave thee I disagree with that, and
Evan, I don't know if youdo. But the amount of teachers that
I have had a not like friendshipmeaning that I go hang out with them
on the weekend, but a actualfriendship that I feel like I could come

(34:30):
to this person and say anything thatI needed to. I feel like that
part of the bond in a mentorshipis very important. And I think and
I think as as like the studentgrows up, it becomes less nor teacher.

(34:50):
Yeah. Prime example, friend ofthe show j Kwan Jones. Mm
hmm. Still was very close andhung out with and did all this club
work and was part of the likeanimal science track at on my Automotive at
my alma mater, conrad S Fullof Science. He still talks to the

(35:14):
animal science teacher there, the friends. He text with her, like not
regularly, but like you know,like enough like that, like you know
in them. I've seen him afew times we hung out. I saw
him like, I'm like, oh, you're texting about pizza. I'm like,
but you still talking to her.I'm like, yeah, keep up.
Yeah, I'm I'm friends on Facebookwith re English teachers, my choral

(35:38):
music teacher, my advisor in college. Well yeah, very quickly. I
want to bag up. Me andEvan had the ability to text privately to
at least one of our shared teacher. Granted, this was outside of a

(35:58):
school setting and it was much moreheavy on the mentorship aspect of things.
Literally young literally a young men's ensembleof all men, and I was a
guy, and he and he andhe definitely helped me like grow in certain
aspects. Definitely, you fuck you, damn, it's not I'm not I'm

(36:22):
not like he's not wrong, butstill fuck you. I just had to
say now, but I'm not.I'm not trying to create a Fasse equivalency,
but I'm just saying, like,for transparency sake, I have been
on both sides of the issue.I do agree with your you know,
the overview of it, though,I'll say it. Yeah, I'll say

(36:45):
this. I'll say this, andIndia right here, because I've seen so
many different teachers use their social mediawith their students, and most women is
just like, okay, it's innocentand they're promoting other things because I know
there was one teacher that was arapper. Well, no, there were
several teachers that were rappers, butone of them got in trouble because of

(37:07):
lyrics. The other one got introuble because it's some ship and involved students.
But if I want to, ifI want to, if there is
one example of a teacher using socialmedia to better connect with their kids and
all the different, all different things. There is a there is a Instagram

(37:28):
account of a wrestling club where theperson who's running the wrestling club is running
old videos of WWE pay per viewsand aw pay per views and it's just
showing the kids there. I can'tI can't call their ages. I've probably

(37:49):
got to go back and look.But they they're they're young, they're impressionable,
but they're very young wrestling fans.But you can actually see their reactions
and everything, and you just haveto wonder, like, Okay, so
what protocol did you had to gothrough to make this happen? And it's
got so big that Willow Nightingale,who is the current TBS champion in aw

(38:12):
I think, but she stopped byand visited the students herself. That,
in my opinion, is the bestway to use. If you're gonna involve
students in social media in any differentway, that's the best way to do
it. Put it in a waywhere it's more focused on the students,

(38:32):
you know, the students alone.The only thing I'm going to contribute to
this at this point is that Ichoose the bear. I choose the bear
as well. Good show. No, Hey, I got I didn't get
my topic? Fuck you? Whathappened? That tells me is young here?

(38:52):
I got to put band off twitch? Yeah? What was that about?
Yeah? What is that about?Yeah? So apparently so for those
who so I have y'all know aboutthe Hall of Shame, right, Yeah,
yeah, yep, I remember,yep, yep. I uh,
this guy Ryan t underscored t tvO. I'm I'm saying it just for

(39:17):
contents of the story. I'm justI'm letting everybody listen listening, do not
after him, do not. Iam more. He did salty piss baby
shit. He is a salty pissbaby. I expect him to do salty
piss baby shit. What I didn'texpect was twitched to take his report on

(39:39):
me, a report by the wayof reporting me as a bot or automated
account. Wow, you can't likesend them a physical video and be like,
Hi, I'm not a fucking bot. Idiots. I send my appeal.
I named you of him in theappeal and said, hey, this

(40:00):
is like what happened, and yeah, that's that's so Evan. Yeah.
Can I talk too seriously about something? Go for it. I think this
go back to that page very quickly. I think this opens you up,

(40:22):
does it? It does? AndI understand the reason for it. I'm
not criticizing you at all. Itotally would do the same shit. My
thing is, it's going to beway easier and reflect better on you if
you just block these fucking people.Yeah, if you know how to find

(40:44):
their you know, account stuff onall of those different platforms. And I
see that you included all their links, blocked them because this ship is just
going to continuously happen. Yeah,nah, you're right right, But trust
me, Bro, I'm with you. I agree with this sentiment. It
just isn't gonna work in the digitalspace. I just like, I don't

(41:08):
want to stream on kick. I'mnot even saying that. No, no,
no, I'm not even saying no. No. You want to know
why I have to stream on Pickbecause I watch it. I have a
watch box. I have a watchbox. Wow, this is my website.
This is the hub. This iswhere you can come and watch all

(41:29):
my ship. You can get allthe chat commands. You can look at
crowd control and like fuck with mystream. You have you can you know,
you have your like you can donateyou know, specific purchases like this
and I'll give the if you spendthree dollars, I'll give the cat one
of the cats a tree, andif you spend ten dollars, I'll do
a tapeworm shot. But other shiplike that. So how long until you

(41:52):
go to hey, twist, listen, I don't I don't know. I
don't know, like I I Iyou have to wait for the appeal if
it happens, M Like, Iwant to be clear. I have I
stream on average, probably thirty hoursa month on Twitch over the course of

(42:15):
over the course spread out over thecourse of three and a half years.
Now, there were months where Ididn't stream at all, but I'd made
up for that with the times thatI did. But also there's millions of
inconsistent, fucking streamers who only streamonce a year and they're not considered to
fucking buy. And I've hit thepavement threshold for them repeatedly. I've gotten

(42:38):
people to pay me money before theylowered the threshold because not enough people were
getting their payouts. I was inthe top ten percent of Twitch, and
you don't get any customer support,any contact. And I get to submit
one appeal, fuck me man oneappeals and I lost the thirty dollars that

(43:00):
was out that I was gonna usefor groceries this month from Twitch. See
this is the thing about fucking digitalcreatorship that I never understood. And this
is the reason why Rooster teeth is, although they fucking do God destroyed it
was a great fucking business model.I don't know what to tell you,
man, because that's so shitty.If I was, you could find this

(43:22):
guy. But that's me the I'mnot even gonna I'm not ain't gonna hold
you. I probably would have beenlooking to if y'all want to, y'all,
you fuck literally because me and Meadowlike need that money for groceries this
month and shit. So it's like, if y'all want to help me brother
out, I need to get toseventy five followers on twitch so I can

(43:45):
fucking unlock the ability to become anaffiliate and earn subscriptions and ship. So
people, oh wow, you werejust and you are that close? Well
no, this was this here wasat like zero. I did an eight
hour stream today playing Stardoo Valley becausethat's good. I love that fucking game.

(44:07):
It's so good. But yeah,no, it's it's frustrating, you
know, but and it's like andand it hurts also in another way too,
because like, look at this shit, I got ten thousand you know,
subs on YouTube. I got more, so like I've like I've got
more. I have for all ofmy friends that started doing this. We

(44:29):
all started doing this around the sametime all of the associates I've picked up.
You know, I am larger onYouTube than basically everybody, And it's
so frustrating because, like, thething that fucks me with this is that
I'm constantly fighting with the fucking algorithmto the level of just like, if

(44:50):
I can get to three thousand watchhours, I can like have channel memberships
and throw my merch store underneath myvideos and be able to like get a
better sh stream of income, letalone getting to four thousand you know,
watch hours and you know, beingable to like make money off of ad
revenue. But like, but alsothe shittiest fucking part is they take away

(45:10):
part of the demographic that counts storiesthat because shorts don't contribute, right,
they shorts contribute on a separate ona separate line. You need, Yeah,
you need three million views on shortsin ninety days or whoa four thousand

(45:31):
public watch hours over the course ofa year. That's such a difference.
That is the difference you say,thousand versus three million. You need to
start putting twenty seconds of villainus up. Yeah, like if you post it

(45:51):
on YouTube the way you post iton TikTok, you probably would reach it.
Villains Yeah, I'm like three million. Especially for someone like you who
has fifty thousand followers on TikTok,you'd hit it. I think I might

(46:12):
have to go bos Salon now nowgranted to get full partnership, you got
to hit ten mili. Yeah,that's hard, Oulate. But here's the
thing. You could start doing membershipsvillainous. You could open up a merch
store and start having your shit goingunderneath videos and stuff. You could start
live streaming on YouTube. YouTube hasthe collaborative feature. Me and Brian have

(46:37):
done it. You just send amotherfucker a link, they click it,
their YouTube app opens, and lala, You're streaming together on your stream.
That's like pretty cool. I likeit. I don't actually want to
do more mobile streams like that.But me and Brian have such a time
difference. Yeah, I don't know, it just it's it. It remains

(47:00):
frustrating to a level of what areyou doing? Ah, I don't know,
I just I know this has turnedinto the Evan Haggard bitch Hour,
But like, yeah, I getit, though, I honestly get it
though, Like it's not TikTok doesn'tfuck me anywhere near as much as it

(47:23):
does you. Yeah, and it'scompletely unfair that one person's one person's false
report has cost you this much threeyears of my life and and and I've
built, like I built a goodchunk of like my streaming infrastructure into Twitch

(47:45):
and it's just and it's there's nothingreally to replace it. I it and
it sucks. It's just really fuckingunfortunate, and there's nothing really I can
do about it otherwise that shitt isthe situations. Do your best to try
and think about the fact that thisis not you with hundreds of thousands of

(48:07):
subscribers or millions of subscribers, oryou're leaving thousands of dollars on the table,
like thankfully, I think Pilkie Mangetting like banned for like a week
or some shit. It was Pokemarowas one of one of the lady streamers
got banned for like two weeks andand she lost like everything. Yep.

(48:28):
So trust me, I'm with youabout how shitty it is. I'm not
trying to do the grass is greeneron the other side bullshit. I'm just
trying to be like, hey,you've been through worse. Yeah, honest
to go through this too. Ifanybody wants to help a brother out,
please consider uh, why didn't thefucking cea? No, it's doing it's

(48:50):
being as weird of course today's Ifanybody wants to help a brother out,
please consider h dropping a tip atof HTI media dot ggs. Did you
know God knows I need the money? And uh uh you get perks in
the discord and oh actually this issomething I actually want to talk to you

(49:13):
guys about it. And this isme just again self stroking, but I'm
really proud of this and I thinkthis is Uh, I don't know if
you guys know this. I've donesome at every once, but I apologize.
Have you guys seen the bounty boardI set up in my discord?
Is that not the thing we werejust talking? Yeah? I did,

(49:35):
I did. Was it the onethat we're talking about? The too hour
the two hour essay? Uh?That was one of them. I was
thinking about that. Well, Iviewed. This is the Himedia dot gg
leaderboard. You the little number withwith a crown next to it is your
crown? Is your crown? Countyou get crowns by doing a a multitude

(50:00):
of different things such as sorry,I'm just sorry for the uh, such
as uh, for example, letme see if I can pull up window
display discord share there we go,such as I and you guys aren't gonna

(50:22):
see the viewers, but I'll justread them off for people so you can
see I had there. I'm inanother discord called the Hub, right,
and the guy runs it's like abig terrarian mode or whatever, and he
has a bounty board and he hasthings like beat dead Cells, Boss Soult
level five and if you do it, you get a unique role. Cool.

(50:46):
And I was like, that's sucha cool core concept. How can
I, uh, how can Itake that and do something more with it?
You know? So what I waskind of thinking, is it doing?

(51:07):
So what I was thinking was isthat let me take the Winston Cup.
Winston Cup being the tournament structure wedo here for mainly you gee,
but I'm slowly gonna be doing aSMAs other games. I'm gonna be doing
a smash tournament at some point soon, things of that nature, you know.
And I say, what if Iconverted points to something called crowns and

(51:29):
the crowns are basically your new pointssystem in this bounty board. So for
example, I have daily challenges,which you know, like touch grass and
it has required it's a daily talent. You can do this every day.
You earned a title if you see, like there's little titles and stuff you
can earn based on the things youcomplete. And you also earn a single

(51:52):
crown and there's rex for it.You post a picture of you touching grass,
Must move more than ten feet fromyour bed, Must be out side,
Must be outside for at least tenminutes so you get vitamin D parenthes
is not applicable if weather it's bad. Must drink water. I have a
separate one called drink water. Youget the title hydrated, a single crown,

(52:15):
and granted this one is listen.I don't need a picture or validation
or anything. It's honor system butwhatever. But it's like, you know,
if you you know, gonna gothrough the effort of like wanting to
get that crown, you might aswell just do it. And like,
these crowns provide basically nothing except braggingBrits. Right, But I thought it'd
be a fun, interesting community wayfor people to like sort of connect and

(52:37):
not only just do daily things thattake care of themselves, but also get
on board with their you know,content creation stuff such as post a video
essay. Both post a video essayof at least two hours in length,
cannot be a live stream, cannotbe a stream, vod must be a
minimum two hours in length, mustbe posted to YouTube, must be an
edited video, must be from achannel you and that you posted yourself.

(53:00):
That just prevents people from posting afucking Sean video or a fucking Bingo video
or something. And then must besubmitted in the form of a YouTube link.
And then you get fifteen crowns inthe title video essayist. You know,
and it's just it's it's bragg it'sit's it's just bragging rights. And
it's a way to you know,commit get people to want to do some

(53:22):
I have things for video games.I have community challenges, which are challenges
that people can do repeatedly or oryou can only do once, but anybody
can do. Like get King ofGames rank and you g o duel links
Eldon Lord in Elden rank, postyou requirements no mods, and you post
a picture of the achievement when acquired. You know, you get the title

(53:44):
Eldon Lord if you see I havethe title Eldon Lord because I beat Elden
Ring forty two times. Tysinat wasdrugging people or he was he but you
know what he did watch it?Fuckat. But I will give credit as

(54:05):
a Souls player. He did thatship with no summons and he did that
ship. So you know what,I'll give credit what credit is due.
He'd be millennia without like without that, I'll give him that, you know,
like six deaths something like that.He is a fuckhead, oh yeah,
but for advice. But he didthat ship and I'll get I'll give

(54:28):
him that respect. Villinus. Iwanted to ask, are you an anime?
Matt? Yes? I am,okay, watch that's all the time?
Am I watching? What? Now? Are you watching My Hero?
I stopped watching My Hero? Uh? I like this season. I gotta

(54:51):
be real. I like how itstarted off. I like how it's going.
It's a pretty solid solid start sofar, and the the animation quality
is definitely stepped up. Right.I'm currently watching that that series on Netflix
that's based off of the Brothers Grim. I know what you're talking about.

(55:14):
How is that? Yeah, it'sit's pretty decent, Like as for somebody
who was very interested in grim fairytales and growing up and studying it in
college for one of my English classes. It's a very creative way to retell
these classic stories. Like I justfinished The Shoemaker in the Elf. The

(55:37):
way they had it set up waslike, very very creative, very different.
It wasn't like it's they're not reallytelling the story. They're telling like
a different version of the story withlike different uh scenarios, but it's still
in the same vein of these arethe elves and they are making the shoes

(55:59):
for the Elf for the shoemaker,and he doesn't know how they're being made.
Is it horror centric or is itlike more action? It's it's more
drama than anything. I know thatthere are some there are some episodes that
are very action centered if you want, if you're talking about uh, the

(56:25):
horror centric ones. Juno has awhole series called Maniac, which is fucking
I was watching that with my sonand we were both screaming, why would
you put on a Jingo thing foryour how old eight year old son?

(56:45):
That's nine? I rest my case, I will say no, but this
is the same. Damn let him. He might love it. You never
know, all right, but he'she's always he's also theo was made for
me. He's into poppies, playtimeand you know what that makes sense?

(57:12):
The Mosca the mascot horror ship withall the kids and stuff like that.
Yeah, perfect for mom. Tenout of ten, big jump. So
and then and also season two ofBlood of Zeus is out now, so
so I know what I'm doing.Have you sted? Have you? Brian

(57:34):
knows that I'm not a big animeguy at this person. Why I'm not
asking you a single question? Ohtoo? What was the question? Sorry?
Kaiju number eight? I've never heardof that. If you like,
did you like Attack on Tying themost part? Yeah, it's kind of
like the same premise, but it'snot nearly as dark and dreary and ship

(57:58):
like that. Like the overtones arepretty fun and casual. But there is
like that Japanese war crime apology.No, it doesn't focus on that.
Actually, Attack on Titan is moreso is your own? It really is?
Yeah, that's what it's meant,That's what it's meant to be.

(58:20):
It is the problem is is thatit's like framed in such a way that
it's like the Jews are like oppressed, but they deserve to be oppressed because
they It's just it's just little noNo attack on does real quick Attack on
Titan does discrimination the right way,I would say, because it shows you,

(58:42):
like, regardless of your reaction toit, whether you're the oppressor or
the oppressed, killing indiscriminately is thewrong fucking answer. And if we really
want to if we really want totalk about animes, when war crimes,
full Metal, Alchemists, Brotherhood,I mean, yes, the ship they
did with that dog and bitch crazyor also I mean I'm also thinking about

(59:04):
his favorite Yeah, but I wouldBut I would also say that, like
I think there's a difference between thecore subject matter talking about war crimes and
stuff and then painting it like itwas a good thing, right, That's
like I will say that, likethe Marlan versus Eldian like kind of dichotomy

(59:25):
and Tackle on Titan gives me kindof sketch vibes. Well, I would
are. I would just say thatthe way that they end that conflict,
everybody, and I mean everyone,Marlians and Eldians are all feeling the effects
of the war. It's not likeone party walks away completely scott free and

(59:49):
the other one does it like fairenough. Yeah, I don't want to
go into spoilers, but like,most of the world is not even on
the fucking planet anymore. It's crazythat much of the rumbling happened in that
short amount of time. Evan.Yeah, when we're off the stream,
I'll go into full detail as muchas you want me to. I just

(01:00:10):
don't want to spoil shit that literallycame out in January, fair enough.
H One thing I will say isis I I'm not a big anime manga
guy anymore. I've just kind oflike lost the alert with it because there's
very few ips that just don't havelike the awful tropes I dislike, and

(01:00:34):
you know, they all kind ofare kind of saying like there's just there's
not I like gems, and therearen't in like I have to have people
recommend me the gems because it's justso much slop. I'm not thirteen anymore
with complete access to Netflix and andno other hobbies. So it's just I
will say that. So I didfinish Fire Force in manga form recently,

(01:00:54):
I've heard that's a really good anime. It is so good. It is
so good the manga mad like thestory of fire Force will make you feel
things and the resolution of it.It is just spoilers. It is the
prequel to Soul Leader. Okay,again, another anime I haven't investigated.

(01:01:17):
I'll be, but it's not worthdoing because of theirs. So that it's
one of those anime that changed alot of things from the manga and did
not get a readaptation, like somethinglike fruits Basket. So like fucking Berserk,
like goddamn berserk, fucking berserk.Why can't they make a good Berserk.

(01:01:37):
I gotta be honest, I kindof I kind of gave up on
the Berserk manga after the booty rapescene. I mean there's a few of
those, the first one as hewas a kid, that one, okay,
Yeah, that one hit a littletoo close to home. Yeah,

(01:01:59):
I see, that's the thing.But like Invincible is a perfect example of
why fucking desserve can be made.It's still fuck Griffith, oh all the
way, Fuck that motherfucker all theway. I will forever will be,
I will forever be show Zucker didnothing wrong, but it's yo. The
people who said Griffith did nothing wrongneed to be institutionalized. No, no,

(01:02:23):
no, that that's the chair.That's not only the chair hit him
with super soakers while the thing isgoing on, just because there's no there's
no there is no excuse. Captured, saved by his best friend, turned

(01:02:44):
around and did the most heinous fuckingacts you could imagine, just for power.
Could you imagine Villa's got the Villa'sgot the type of energy for Griffiths
to PLoP him in the back ofthe head twice while singing. And that's
why you got nerved for nothing.And that's right here. Stay strapped,

(01:03:06):
stay yeah yeah, before before Ibefore me and villains connected. Uh for
the first time, I was afan. I watched this ship so I'm
