 It's so stupid, it's positively brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. The brilliant. Yep, shawlamain the god. Andrew Shultz. We are the brilliant idiots. Wax is here. Back for another week of the real verses that's happening in these streets. The vaccinated versus the unvaccinated. Ooh, I got one today. You got another one? Yes, some lady in my building, she came down here. She came down to the gym. What? I think you need to set up a free light there. The lady in the building is giving out boosters. Nah, she came down to the gym and then she got in the treadmill and she looked at me and the guy who trains me and she's like, uh, just so I know, like, are you guys vaccinated or not? Like, if not, I'll just leave. You sound just like that. Right? Yeah. And then I was like, oh no, we're both vaccinated. And then she gets on the treadmill and then she starts coughing the whole fucking time. See, that's the other fucked up shit about this era we in. Why can't I cough? It's not a thing that make you cough other than coughing. No, no coughing right now. Stop! Don't be coughing now. What do you need to cough for? You know how to breathe? It's fluids, colds, bronchitis, allergies. Go to the doctor. You do. Bro, if you can't breathe, breathing is the most simple shit, right? In, out. And if that is a struggle for you, then you need to be inside, right? Every time I'm about to cough, it's like, I'm about to, you know how people run to go to the bathroom? Like, I run to go somewhere to cough because I don't want people to think I don't want to cough. You think everybody's judging you? You got to scream some shit like, oh, I just took a COVID test. I just judged you just now when you coughed. Me? Yeah. I was just playing the whole time. I was like, did this bitch ask me if I'm vaccinated? She was coughing Delta and Lambda all over the Peloton screen. I can't even use the goddamn treadmill for 24 hours. You're like, I just took a COVID test. I'm good. You did. Oh, I did. I did actually just take one. I got to take one every two days. Skin looks good, man. Dr. Natasha Sandy, baby. Did you get a thing recently? A chemical pill? No, I haven't had a chemical pill in a minute. Skin looks good. Dr. Natasha Sandy, man. I don't know, bro. That could be that Lambda. You know what, though? I won't say. People are being ridiculous. You saw the shit Jimmy Kimmel said? What did he say? Damn, I wish we had the audio to play, man. They got it. They got a video of it somewhere. You got it? It was on my feed. You saw it? I didn't see it, though. Did you ever lie, though? When people asked you? I lied a couple of times. You would say, you got the vaccine. I'd say, yeah. Black trucks. Black trucks. They know you didn't get it. You fit the profile of somebody. Who's gonna get vaccinated? You don't even use lotion. Why would you get vaccinated? You don't do anything that helps you. I'm gonna fuck Johnson and Johnson. Fuck Johnson and Johnson. Guys thought of wearing condoms after he had two kids. You know what I mean? I got to start wearing condoms now. What did Jimmy Kimmel say? Listen, listen, listen. I want you to hear it. I want you to hear it. Maybe I'm misreading it. Pause, pause, pause. So many things wrong. Okay. First of all, there's ivermectin for horses. And there's ivermectin for human beings. I don't know. It won a Nobel Peace Prize. Really? And it's used for human beings. It's an American drug. It is prescribed by doctors. This is a false story that happened once... Like a fake news story that happened once Rogan said that he took it. It was just like a hit piece on Rogan. Like, look at this guy. What a piece of shit. Is it possible to overdose? Like fentanyl? I don't know. I mean, look, if you're taking the horse version, then that's bad. But why are people taking the horse version? Because every media outlet is calling it the horse medication. So you go out and ask for the fucking horse one instead of the human one, that is the one that Rogan is taking and other people is taking as well. All I know is ivermectin is my new alias from now on. You call yourself ivermectin? Ivermectin. Yes. Okay. I like it. I fucks with it. And then the ICU bed thing is interesting though. Yeah, I think people just explain who got it. I mean, I don't know. Like, I got Vax. And if I got to go to the ICU for the same reason the motherfucker didn't get Vax and I'm the guinea pig, I'm the fucking social experiment for everybody. That's why people mad. I'm in first class. Like, I'm premium. Yeah, but that's unethical. I think, I think honestly, if they find out doctors are doing that, they should take their license away. Oh, I don't think doctors are doing that. Human life is human life. Yeah, they are. They're not prioritizing. No, I heard they're turning people away if you're not vaccinated, which is insane. No, no, no, no. Yes. That's illegal. You have to help. That's what I thought. Is there still something as the hero? No, because last time I checked, today actually, New York City, all 62 counties are in the red in New York and they said everybody vaccinated or unvaccinated should wear a mask because you still get it and you still transmit it to people. The only reason why y'all mad, like this guy right here just pissed off that we didn't get Vax because he got it. He like, man, fuck that. Something happened to me. Y'all ain't got it. It's a little pushy. Pushy don't work, guys. Yeah, come on, man. Pushy don't work. You got to make it cool. Yeah. Like if you make it, it should be the opposite. Like if it was like, remember back in the day, like when there were no vaccines and then people like, how do I get that shit? Yeah. I'm going to go down to like people going to like the hood because they know black people weren't going to get it. And there was all these white people driving fucking Bentley's. And I was like, what? And they were just lined up to see if there was any vaccines. For which voices? They just saw these nice ass cars pulling up. What the fuck are these guys doing here? Wow. All Greens and Watts was fucking vacant. Yo, what's going on? Yo, what's popping in there? Yo, getting the VACs. Yo, getting these shots. Yeah, man. And they should have acted. Get Lil' John into commercial. Shot, shot, shot, shot, shot. Yeah, they had too many at first. They should have acted like it was always not so hard. It was too hard to get. Got to be like Jordan. They had all, everybody can get it. They're like, man, I want that shot. And they were just being too pushy. We'll give you tacos for it. We'll give you weed for it. We'll pay you. Money, yeah. You never give us nothing. You never give us nothing. That's what I'm saying. You're giving me free Ben and Jerry's. There's no way I get that. Now mind you, I've never lived through a pandemic. Or I guess we kind of did with, you know, we didn't kind of, we did with the swine flu. But for whatever reason, it didn't cause the hysteria that this did. Swine flu was infected 62 million people. Just in America, killed 12,000. Hospitalized a quarter million. That's like one for it. Compared to this, bro. Like this is 600,000 people died from this shit. Allegedly. Oh, come on. Come on, conspiracy shot. I'm not saying it wasn't 200. Yo, he really hasn't gotten it yet. You got to believe that you're just immune or something. Nah, I'm hardheaded. It's not even that I'm hardheaded. I'm not going to get it. I'm going to get it. Here's the thing. I'm going to get it. But I'm going to get it when I fucking want to get it. I would have gotten it already if people stopped being so fucking pushing. The vaccine or the virus? The vaccine. Oh, that's what I'm saying. No, I think I had the virus. I think I had it. You did. I think I had it last year when we all came back from Anguilla. Because literally it was so, everybody was sick. And now that we know more about the symptoms and everything. I'm like, everybody had cold. But were you sick? Yeah, hell yeah. When I say everybody was sick, everybody in the house, except for the kids, was sick. Like everybody. That makes sense. Everybody. Like everybody that was on that Anguilla trip with us was sick. Everybody. And I didn't get over my cough to late February. But I'm going to probably get the vaccine. You know what I mean? But people are being very pushy about it. Who is? Who is? What do you mean who is? I'm just saying who is. DC, the media, everybody man. They wild. And they scare me. That's what I'm saying. Why? Now he's scared me even more. It's like when you're trying to surprise your girl. But you keep talking about the place that you're going. Oh yeah. Fuck that. You know what I mean? I can't surprise my girl for shit. I was telling her shit that I'm going to get for her. Before I even get it. I'm going to do it. I was so excited. I actually had one thoughtful thing fast through my brain. I need to share it. Let me tell you something. My wife turned 40 this year. And I'm planning something for her. And my stupid ass is talking to her. Because that's my best friend. So it's just to happen. So I'm just like, yeah, you know, such and such and such. She's like, why is such and such and such and such doing what? And I'm like, I just sit there stupid like. I'm like, huh? What happened? I'm tired. Why can't we surprise our girls, man? I'm not good at it. And I forget. No. I forget the days and days. Word is bonk. I just get too excited. I'm like, oh, I can make her feel good. And I really need her to help me do everything. I really need her to help me do everything. You need her to help you surprise her. Exactly. That's why you got to get in good with her friends. You got to know who her friends are. But you do. You let the best friend handle everything and just shut the fuck up. I want to shut the fuck up, but it's hard. Like you said. It's definitely hard, especially if you're trying to do a surprise and then you think she'll know because she'll be like, you know what I want to do on my birthday? Like, what the fuck do you mean what you want to do? I've been planning all this shit for months. Our boy, you know, Mark, the white dude with the fat ass? Of course we know, Mark. Okay, Mark. How can you forget him? Of course. Dreamy. How can we forget that? That's dreamy. So Mark, his wife is on Pinterest, you know that Pinterest where girls basically pin all the shit that they like. So he secretly follows her on Pinterest and then finds all the shit that she likes for the crib, the shit that she wants to wear. Smart, though. I should do that for Amazon then because she's always on Amazon. You find out the shit that she got in her cart but she hasn't bought, you go in there and it's like, oh, you actually wanted this? Thanks, smart guy. Pinterest is this cheat code, huh? These kids know everything now, right? Don't put that out there. Don't put that out there. Listen to conversations. You're supposed to tell us that off this shit. My bad, my bad, my bad. I didn't even know Pinterest was a social media app. Say what? I didn't know Pinterest was a social media app. It is social media, isn't it? I think Zuckerberg- I thought it was like Google. Shit, I don't know what the fuck is. You do? Can you buy things from Google? Yeah. Yeah, you can. Pinterest works. Smart. So that's a vibe. Listen, these kids hacked everything. They know how to be thoughtful. Back in the day, we had to learn how to be thoughtful. We had to listen to for a year and then we had to sit there by ourselves while we were taking a shit for an hour and be like, what is she like? Nah, I've always been thoughtful, bro. I've always been thoughtful. I'm not going to lie. I've always had a little drink in me, bro. I'm not going to lie, man. Because I think we grew up on writing letters. You know what I mean? Aliyah told you to write a full page letter, seal it with a kiss. You write the, do you want to go with me? Yes, no, maybe. Y'all used to be fine with letters because that's all I had. I had no money. I had no car. I got money too quick. You know when you was young? I thought about a kid, bro, like a kid. No, no, no. I get her teddy bear assumption. Ooh, teddy bears used to be fine. I remember the first girl I ever made out with, bro. I bought her chocolates, teddy bears, and a rose. Your boy was getting full-tongued that night. Certified lover boy. Yeah. How old were you then? What? Yo, relax. Did Taylor just break the chair? No. Taylor, come on, Taylor. Chill out, yo. That's our director chair. This guy is so crazy. That's our director chair. You got to chill the fuck out. Yo. This guy is crazy, man. This guy's crazy. This guy's crazy, yo. He's like, bro, I'm too close to her for you to say anything. Get your balance right, too. This guy is crazy. What you going to ask her age next? Jesus Christ. 40s. Damn, bro. This guy is crazy. But now I always had, like, a shriek in me where I was just, like, very thoughtful, man. Really? Because I was broke. When you broke, you come up with some amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing ideas. That is true. That is true. That's why you got to keep the essence of brokenness with the money. I know, but this is just so hard when you realize that, like, a gift that's expensive is so much easier. There's way less time. But the thoughtfulness is the shit. No, no, no. The thoughtfulness stays with them. It's way more impactful. But if you want to look for, like, efficiency and time, I'm not proud of this. Yeah. But, like, the longer I wait to get my girl a gift, the more expensive that shit gets. If I plan a gift for her a month in advance, I'll get something that's, like, exactly what she wants. She loves its thoughtful card. If it's three days before and I'm scrambling, it's usually a voice. It's a voice. Oh, your voice. I got to call the account. Yeah, we'll open up the app. It's always last minute, though. Yeah, last minute's bad. I don't know why we do that. It's so dumb. Because we got to make up for how unthoughtful the gift is with how expensive it is. Because, you know what I mean? And then it depends what kind of taste your woman got. Your woman might not even want that expensive shit. She doesn't even want that shit. She might not even want it. Like, why are you giving me this? But the way New York... The way New York set up right now, I wouldn't buy my woman nothing expensive. New York is nuts. Unemployment is over. She's got flashlights and fucking mace. Oh, this motherfucker. Yeah, that's what she really needs. You have to get real, huh? Bow to. Yeah, it's already being real. It is disgusting out here. You ain't seen it doing... You're gonna put a chain on and all that type of shit. Dude, and Brooklyn dressed up like a Hasidic Jew. The video is so crazy. He dressed up like an Hasidic Jew. He's acting like he's in the hood of his car, like under the engine, right? And he's working. Guy comes out. Guy gets in his truck. Dude just runs up behind him. Bow, bow, bow. Smokes him. Jumps in like a Nissan Centra or Maximum and just drives off. Puts the hood of the car down and just drives off. Doesn't want anything from the guy? He didn't do it. Nothing. Just a straight... Probably was a hit. Probably got paid to do a hit. Saw this other video in the Bronx just now. They just made the guy run everything. That was surprising, though. Pick your sneakers. Give me your watch. Give me everything. Like, yo, it's... New York is bad. I saw this in... Right there on Melrose, like the shopping district in Melrose. We're talking about like a nice area in LA. These people are just at a cafe, outside eating. And two dudes walk up with pistols, pull them out, take all their shit, take all the bags, right, walk right the fuck off. Listen, you all got hit up right out here, too. Yeah, but that was way before PPP and way before COVID. That was years ago. All the PPP loans and all that stuff is gone now. Unemployment gone. They spent that money up. People starving. Strip clubs and big cars. I wouldn't buy my girls nothing now. My girls are nothing nice. I don't want to wear nothing nice. Yeah, I'm chill. I'm getting nothing nice. Really? You may stay out the way. Yeah. It's bad out here right now. You think? Yes. Too much. It's like you either got it or you didn't got shit. It doesn't matter what race you are. They coming for it. Hey, it's about the haves and the have nots right now. Period. That's it. Well, maybe people get back to work. They need to. No, because for real, there's so many restaurants that couldn't open because they don't have enough employees. Listen, man. They were in a mode of not working. They're in a mode of scamming. They learned how to survive without work. That's right. People think that's a myth. That's fucked up. That's really true. I got a homeboy. I don't want to say his name because I don't know if I'm putting business out there like that. Maybe not if it's illegal. No, it's not illegal. But he owns a bunch of franchises. He owns a bunch of restaurants that everybody knows. And he was saying like, yo, he can't even get people to come back to work. Is everybody so busy collecting unemployment? Exactly. But now that unemployment is cut off, maybe people will go back to work. Go get that $10 an hour, $15 an hour, whoever it's at. And don't be too proud. The work at a fucking McDonald's are of Buffalo Wild Wings. I used to work at a Buffalo Wild Wings, but you weren't too proud to accept money from the government. That makes no sense. Because I used to sleep late. I used to smoke. I used to buy weed from the government. Government buy me weed and all that type of shit. They already used to know how to survive without jobs. I wonder if you practice bad habits like that. Can you even get back into mode? Like after a year of some change and not working out? Yes. So hard to get back. That first day of work, I quit. Fuck you. That's why your stomach was like that? You bug it. I'm early. Yesterday Jazz looted Jazz, man. Jazz said the funniest shit. Jazz said, our homegirl Jazz from New Orleans. Jazz look at Wax and Jazz said, he got a big ass stomach on the low. Don't let him fool you. Like what? No, she said when you're not looking. Yeah, when you're not looking. He got a big ass stomach when you're not looking. That means when people are looking, Wax sucks it in. She said that because I was eating a bunch of gummies and I was like, yo, what the fuck is going on? I'm wilding. Crafty service always do that to me. Oh, craft service? Sucks. Bro. It's a stupid idea. Tell people what craft service is. Okay, so for shows, obviously I'm assuming that you guys are doing this for your show. Yeah. Do you film me a TV show or anything like that where people aren't set for 10, 12 hours a day? Yeah. They just have a section where there's a few tables and they just have it full of food, sweets, candy, chocolate. All the worst stuff in the world. And it's just right there and accessible. And if anybody's ever been around a TV set, you know it's the most boring thing on the fucking planet. Hurry up and wait. Oh, exactly. Hurry up and wait. So you just stand there all day. So I'm like, should I stand here and not have a Hershey's? Or should I just stand here and have a Hershey's? Or a gummy bear? Or a Sour Patch Kids? And it's a bad idea because if you film in a show for a few months, you will gain weight. Just by looking at it. Just by being around it, bro. 12 fucking hours a lot of times. So it's not like you're working out. You need some type of something, man. And that's the point. You're just bored. Yeah. That's literally what it is. So pick up a book, read a book, drink some water. That's the other thing, too. When you're hungry, a lot of times you're thirsty. Yeah. You know what I mean? Just drink water. Just drink water. If you actually drink the amount of water you're supposed to drink during the day, you won't get hungry like that. Bro, if I started reading, I'd probably get more hungry. What? Not much energy that's going to take from me. Well, reading? Turning the pages, keeping the book on your lap. Hold on. Actually, I have to pay attention. That's not energy. I'll be holding myself. What do we think of Drake's album? I'm not entertaining you. What do we think of Drake's album, guys? Yo, can I, I got to say something. When I said on Flagrant, I understand Kanye's genius now. Okay. Bring it down. So we were in OKC. We were doing shows. And after the final show on Saturday, we just started playing some Kanye and some Drake. And we're just going back and forth with CLB and then Donda. Okay. Right? One song for one song. And the production on Kanye is so superior to anything else. And then we started comparing it just to other songs. And you play a Kanye song versus any other song of the same time period. It's just in another fucking galaxy. That's how he does. And I never understood that because I thought producing music was easy. I'll be honest. I'm ignorant. I thought it was just like you get a fucking keyboard and use that couple of things. It's easy. It's nothing, right? I didn't realize that what he was doing was super fucking innovative and different. So now I understand why he believes he's so great because he's like, look how different what I'm doing is from what everyone else is doing. And then when I do it, they all start doing it. I am a great innovator. Kanye was his musical genius. It's not even, it's not, that's never up for the world. I get it. And there's no doubt. I always thought he was a great producer, but I didn't realize how stark a difference there was. I'm going to tell you the ones you listen to. My beautiful doc, Twisted Fantasy. Oh, dude, we started going through everything. I listened to that this weekend. I was like, yo, this is one of the greatest albums of all time. Forgetting rap. Just like everything. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm listening to Donda and I'm realizing like, Donda has higher highs. CLB is more consistent. So Donda will go with these like super, like off the grid. Off the grid. Jesus Lord. Jail. Jail. And Jail part two. Like both of them are fire. The joint with Roddy Rich. Yeah. That's off the grid. I'm bugging. That's off the grid. No, no. Cardi's, I think, on off the grid. I don't remember. But the record with Roddy Rich. One is good. So there's a few that are super high and then there's a few like, there's a bunch that are like regular like mids or just even misses completely. But Drake's is consistent all the way through. That's Drake. It's consistent all the way through. It's like, you know, half eight all the way through. And, but it doesn't reach the fucking high. Like I don't feel compelled to listen to a song on the album. I'm just being honest. And I think his bars are way better than Kanye. Like I think Kanye is like mediocre to bad at rapping. And I think Drake is unbelievable at rapping. I think Drake is on Jay-Z's level of rap. I'm not going to go that far. But Drake should rap his ass off. But let me just say why I say that. I say that because like we were, and we were listening to things back and forth. We were listening to a lot of Watch the Throne. We were listening to, I think when Kanye wraps about his frustration with women, it's the authentic self. Yeah. For me, I'm always looking for authentic self in comedy and music, whatever it is. When he wraps about his frustrations with women, you actually feel like, oh, this is who he is and the lines make sense. Yeah. Everything else, he's trying to like put on an identity and like pretend to be someone. And then when he wraps about it, the lines don't even make sense. I think it was Watch the Throne where you go, I'm beasting off the re-sling. And it's like, it sounds good. And then you think about it. You're like, ain't nobody want to get fucking shit-faced off of white wine. Well, here's the thing. And nobody says beasting when they're drunk. I'm beastie right now. I do that. I don't know. I've never heard that saying before. No, I haven't. So I'm like, I'm looking at all these things and I'm like, oh, a lot of these lines are corny because he's pretending to have this persona. Is he an activist? Oh, no. Is he a man of God? You know, is he a rock? He doesn't really write either though. Well, there you go. Yeah. So now you're not writing from that space, right? When you listen to Jay-Z say a bar and Drake has his ability to, they say something. That sticks with you. And it's fucking aspirational, but it's real like, I'm not a businessman. I'm a businessman. You say that shit and you perk up a little bit. I would like to be that. Let me handle my business. Damn. You know what I mean? Like there's certain things that are just so authentic and Wayne had this as well. We were going back and listening to like Wayne when he was in a pocket. And it was like, oh, there were certain lines where you're just like, holy shit. This is something I would like to experience. I would like to feel. And I think Drake has that ability. So when you look at just like bars on the album, I'm like, I find myself wishing I could relate to this or relating to these things with Kanye. I don't find it as much. But that's because I think his communication isn't through bars. It's through music. Through production. Drake can make you feel something with words. Kanye can make you feel the exact same thing through the production. That's why, you know, I texted you this weekend because I saw what you said and I literally was saying the same thing. I would, I would love to see Drake and Kanye work more together. They've worked together in the past. That makes sense. And I think Drake should write for Kanye. Yeah. And Kanye should produce for Drake. I would rather, I would love to hear a Drake album executive produced by Kanye West. And I would love to hear a Kanye album written by Drake. Yes. Just because I feel like they both study to fuck out each other, right? Say that thing about that. You said something really good about that when you were like Drake knows Kanye. Yeah, Drake knows Kanye intimately because he studied them so much. And Drake, you know, we all sit around, especially when you've got an issue with a person, right? Yeah. When you've got an issue with a person, you start really studying them and picking them apart and seeing what makes them tick, what drives them, what pisses them off. Like, I feel like Drake could really write from the Kanye perspective that we know now in a real way. And I think Kanye could sit with Drake and tell Drake things that he's feeling and Drake could pin it the right way. And for Kanye's production, man, I think Kanye can bring some different things out of Drake. Like, I think about the Andre 3000 verse, right? Totally. Yeah. Which is... I felt that more than anything I heard about either one of them. But it's such an amazing expression of the divine masculine. And that verse is what I thought Donda album was going to be. It's introspective as he was on that verse. You know, dealing with the grief is mom passing. Like, I thought that's what... What are you talking about? Kanye's verse or Andre? No, Drake's verse. Okay, good. You're paying the pension for it. I thought Drake's verse was going to be what that whole album was, right? But think about what that production, that production and whatever story Kanye told Andre bought that verse out. Kanye brings the best out of his feet. That's what I'm saying. And you also know you're not going to waste a verse on a Kanye track because you're experiencing something musically where you're like, I haven't really heard a lot of beats that are this moving. I want to bring it here. If you're just on some regular boom, boom, bap shit, you're like, all right, I can mail this thing in. But you hear a song, like you even on Watch The Throne, you even see Jay, like, pushing. Yeah. Like, really? Yeah. Like, who going to stop me? The last verse of who going to stop me? Murder for excellence. Oh, that's not... No, no, no. The Pablo Picasso, Rothko's, Wilkie's, graduated from the corner. Oh, yeah. I mean, like... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He different. He different. Oh, yeah, Jay different. But I think, I think... You know what I'm saying? Like, he ups the level. Yes. That's what I think, yeah, he could do for Drake because to your point, and this is what I was saying last year when everybody was, you know, jumping down my throat. It's like, Drake is consistently good. We can even say Drake is consistently great. But you know what you're going to get from Drake. That's right. There's not another level. But I think he could get there, but he chooses not to. Sometimes he does, though. Like, there are certain songs that, like, are just memorable and impactful. And I was waiting for, like, one or two of those on Certified Lover Boy. I was like, there's going to be two where I'm like, man, I just got to keep... The closest one for me is... The timestamp record. The timestamp one? Who's that? 7 a.m. in... Bridal path? Bridal path or something like that. 7 a.m. in Bridal Path was dope. Yeah. The first one. Champagne post. Huh? Too sexy or something like that. Left one you find introspective? No, I'm just saying, because when Envy said that earlier this morning, I already knew exactly how Drake flow and how he gonna sound in the words. And I never heard the song before. And that's what I mean. Like, I think Drake is dope, but it's just like, yo, what he does is good, great, and it's always going to be good and great until somebody comes along and shows you better. Like, for the past 11 years, he hasn't had to do anything but be Drake. Okay, but let me say this though. I think that his ability to rap, his actual voice, his voice control... Great voice. I think is Jay-Z level. I know people are gonna shit on me for that. I don't care. But maybe there's another generation, we're a little bit older, maybe the next generation is looking at him in the same way that we looked at Jay-Z or bigger, these guys. Of course. So Jay-Z is Jordan. Is he LeBron? LeBron. LeBron or Kobe or something like that. Kanye's Kobe. Fair enough, fair enough. So it's like, but I'm just saying bars. I'm like, I'm looking. This is as elite as you get. You can't get more elite. So when you're saying, why don't they work together? What I think Drake needs is just production. Production. I don't think Drake needs better bars. I don't think you spit better than him. Because even that sexy song... No, you don't need better bars. I heard that beat before. That beat had to be out before. No, you heard it when we were younger. There was this, I'm too sexy for my shirt. Too sexy for myself. Too sexy. From your dance to that in temporary. It hurts. I was actually dead inside the talent show. The talent show, yeah. You're lying. Oh, you did? Yeah. I was too sexy. Oh, come on. You want to see Wax? I know. You want to see Wax looking too sexy? Chill out. Hold on. I'm going to show y'all Wax looking too sexy, man. Why? Why? It's supposed to go up for real? What is his privacy? I'm going to put that shirt up for him. Is this the way? Is this the way? I... Chap got us. That is not no goddamn way. Chill out. That's him and his boys forming a band again. That's the fucking... You know I play the music. ...the eight heartbeat, the temptations, bro. The fucking pips. I play the beat. Yeah, not one of you fits in a suit. Not one. Look how Wax got his shirt hanging out because it don't fit. What are these shoes? What are the shoes you're wearing? These shoes are crazy. He tried to wear Tim's and they wouldn't let... Yeah, they wouldn't let me listen. Everything came in two outings. Hold on. We got to put it out. Let me send it to you, Taylor. Taylor, let me... No. I'm going to send it to you. How do you do that? Bro, something... I don't know how to get this over there, but get that over there because everybody needs to see that. Everybody needs to see this. No, bro, just preach me to see this. This was on Facebook. No, it's not on Facebook. This was on Facebook. Why? I don't know why. I'm trying. You got it? Please put that up so everybody can look at this. But no. The Andre thing. The Andre, yes. But I think that Connie just brings the best out of people and like I said, I think Drake is consistently good. He's consistently great. But we know what to expect from Drake. And what he does is always going to be good enough and great enough until somebody comes along to show people better. Because LeBron always got higher and you know what I'm saying? And Drake does. Bron and Drake got championships, man. Exactly. No respect, but like I said, I know exactly how it's flowing. Everything is going to be. Bron and Drake are the same because Bron is the best of his era. And he's been the most dominant of his era. Now, have there been other players that have come around? Yes, Steph Curry. We're not going to sit here and act like Steph Curry is not part of this era, bro. Steph Curry revolutionized the game of basketball. Steph Curry got three wings, couple MVPs. Steph is in there just like Kendrick. Yeah, but I'm not building my franchise around the best version of Steph. I'm building my franchise around the best version of LeBron. I mean, you'd have a lot of success. I'm not. You'd have a lot of success now because a lot of things have to fall into place in order for, you know, you to have super success with Steph. You got to get a clay. You got to get a Dreymon. You know what I mean? You got to get a Steve Curry to coach. Like, it's a lot of things that go into play. LeBron, wherever he goes, you can build a franchise around him. Same exact thing with Drake. And Drake has been that consistently good. Drake got rings. You know what I mean? He's been the fucking good at rapping. He's good. He's beyond good at rapping. He's amazing at rapping. He's really good at rapping. He's an elite, bro. You got to give it up. Where's that song that's like song cry? Where's that never changed song to me? That's what I'm saying. I never heard a different Drake to me. That's what I'm saying. But that's what I mean when I say it is, where's the other level? Because people use the word introspective. He does introspective records, but as vulnerable as Drake seems to be, I don't know if you've heard that real vulnerability. You know what I'm saying? I don't even know how you feel about fatherhood. What's in your pocket? A weapon? I don't know. You're taking this unemployment seriously. I've been doing that for years. I've been doing that for years. These are good issues. These are good running shoes. All right. Well, you better run. Good running shoes. I'm prepared. But even on this album, I think Drake's line, Drake got a line like, I had to fuck a bunch of girls to get a son like you. Yeah. That's how you feel about fatherhood? Yeah. I mean, yeah. It's a slick line. Yeah, I like it. But I want to hear something a little deeper. You know what I mean? He was very deep. As deep as you can get. Yeah. I had to get to you to make this happen. Yeah, but now I had to fuck a bunch of girls to get a son like you. Like he was out. I don't know. Maybe it seems like I'm capping, but like he was out there. He was out there fucking everybody. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then he gets, I assume is what he's saying is the most beautiful thing that's ever entered his life. So he's not looking at fucking a bunch of girls. He's like, yeah, I'm on my whole shit. This is fucked up. He's like, look at this beautiful thing that came from fucking all these. Yeah. And I even heard him. I didn't expect it, right? I even heard him mention therapy on now. You didn't hear him mention therapy? No, I did. Oh, yeah. He did. He mentioned therapy on now. And I'm like, y'all want to hear, like I want to hear more about what it feels like to be the biggest thing ever from a city, put a city on a map, the stress that comes with that. Maybe I don't listen to another drink. I don't, I don't, I think I do, but I haven't really captured that. You know what I mean? Like it's like a lot of more money, more problems. Sure. But what are the problems? Even when you complain about your friend group, it's like, bro, if you complaining about your friend group and you complaining about all these women, maybe it's you. Your therapist will tell you that. Yeah. Maybe it's you. I don't want to hear it from my therapist. I'm tired of that shit. It's him reaching these levels of success and the way that that changes people. Yeah. That's what I assume the issue is. How would it change him, though? Well, I'm sure you've gone through this. Like you get more successful and then all of a sudden you notice that people's energy around you changes. And it's not because they hate you or love you or anything like that. It's they just start to feel uncomfortable around you. You haven't changed at all, right? No, I haven't. No, I haven't. I haven't. We all do. Like your 50 cents said at the back, 50 cents said, yo, if you haven't, if you made money and you haven't changed, you haven't made enough. And I don't even think it's just about the money. It's just about the opportunities and things you may be doing, man. Like everybody don't deserve access to your energy. That's just the truth to the matter. Yeah. You got your team. You got a crew of people that you have around you that you feel comfortable with. Yeah. The energy hub. It keeps your energy up. That's important, man. You got to keep the right circle around you, man. That is true. I think that's what he's saying. He's got his crew. He got his crew. And then he's saying to people outside of the crew, they could treat you different. They could want something from you. When you're in a position where you could help people, right? It changes their energy around you. It just doesn't actually, because everybody's looking for their salvation. Yeah. And so you got to be able to, like, have a strong constitution within that so that you can keep being the person you are, even though you know everybody around you actually wants something from you. Yeah. And that probably gives you anxiety, man. That's probably why your anxiety is going up in a lot of ways through your success. That's because you're like, oh, shit. That's why I changed my phone number. You did? Yeah. What do you mean? You got it. I know. Yes, you do. What are you talking about? You texting me today? Text you all the time. What are you talking about? It's a new number? Yeah. It still says Charlotte, man. Oh, that's what you were saying? Yeah. You know what's funny? Is it Neil Brennan hit me? Neil Brennan hit me, and he was like, yo, does Charlotte get a new number? I was like, nah. I was wondering what Neil was talking about. I was wondering what Neil was talking about. Neil was like, yo, me and Schoes was wondering if you got a kid that. I'm like, me and Schoes, that's a show every week. What are you talking about? Yeah, because I texted you. I texted you that shit went green. I was like, I don't know. Maybe he's got a gorilla or something. He's not going to cut you. He's going to play. Yeah. Who's my guy, Neil? Neil. That's a Neil, man. Neil found God, bro. I know. I watched him. I watched him meet him find God, bro. I actually want to sit down and talk with him about that because I have mixed feelings. He's in town. We should have one. He's so flavorant. I told him I want to come up. He's so focused about this show. He found God. That's good. He's in gospel. I watched him meet him find God. He's in gospel. He's in faith medicine. But just to put a button on the Drake thing, man, even in Kanye, I know sometimes it seems like we're overly critical of them. Yeah. But the reason we're overly critical of them because we know they're successful. Like they're breaking all screaming records and they're selling all these records. Both of them have sold a bunch of records. Their status is certified in that department. So now the only thing we're judging them on is music. It's the same thing with Braun every year, right? Like we're only judging Braun on a winning championship. Like that's literally the bar for Braun every year. Like I was debating, me and Wayno was having a conversation and Wayno was like, you know, he was talking about Kendrick. He was like, you're only as good as your last projects. I said, so Kendrick's only as good as damn it. Like you're still on that. You're still down that high. And then he goes, I'm like, and I don't even believe that logic. Because if you say you're only as good as your last, whatever, we know LeBron's better than a first round playoff loss. Do you know what I'm saying? So that logic don't make no sense. Is he? He's got proof. What do you mean? He could have lost it. He could have lost the step. He could have been getting old. He's still Braun though. I'm saying he could. And then this year, he's going to prove that he's still Braun. But right now we're waiting for him to prove it. Yeah, but nobody, nobody does that except for Michael Jeffery Jordan. You know what I mean? Michael Jeffery Jordan was the only person who got it and didn't stop getting it for six years. Like everybody has peaks and valleys. But one year, one year he didn't. But those guys are always, Braun is still Braun. Like nothing is going to stop LeBron James from being LeBron James. But can he win the championship again? It don't matter. Why does he got... No, you know what? You're right. No, you're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. You're right. I think like... I also think it's... What's up with her? What's that? The girl that ran. She was doing good all this time. She got nice place here. But she was never that fast. We just didn't know anything about track and field. Come on, bro. You think you're fast. You think you're fast, man. You know fast. No, but that was crazy funny. She was never supposed to beat the Jamaican girls. He was not going to beat none of the Jamaican ones. But Americans don't know anything about track and field. So when we saw her beating all the Americans and the trials were like, oh, she's the best. I know enough to know, even if you look at the time, she's the sixth fastest in the world. You know who the top three are? Jameca, Jameca, Jameca! That's right. Even with her fastest time, she would have placed fourth. You really still listen to her about running, bro? You're right. Why we listen to Taylor about running? You're right, Taylor. Taylor, you're right. I don't listen to Taylor about running. You got smoked, bro. Taylor, we don't listen to you about running. Pulled over the hamstring. I made your hamstring give up. Yo, that shit traumatizes Taylor, bro. I made your hamstring quit. That shit traumatizes Taylor. Yeah, you got to. Somebody held that fire to Taylor and she didn't tell us. It's something we ain't seen. Somebody probably back home with Philly. They probably roasted her, y'all. Y'all seen you on that, John. John getting dusted on that, John. Her old track coat. I seen you on that, John, getting dusted, y'all. I seen you getting dusted on that, John. What happened? This what happened. What happened was you disrespected me by thinking you could even come close. That's what happened. You were disrespectful by thinking that you could beat me. I could beat Shikari Richardson. Yo, don't show up. Listen, don't show up. I could beat Shikari. Don't show up to show up to show up to Philly show, yo. I'm telling you, people will be walking by you going, Zoom! Don't do it. Now they are. Don't do it. I'm telling you. They're going to all fight me. Why do you want to fight everybody? Yo, yo, chill out. Because you lost the race you want to fight? How about this? How about this? You catch me, you can fight me. What are you talking about? Love you, Taylor. No, you don't. What are you talking about? I do love Taylor. Wow! Damn, Taylor? Taylor, we love you. Taylor, if you don't shut your cracker eyes. Why are you? What's up? You blame it with Showtime Performance enhancement or something? Damn. Taylor, I swear to God, if you don't say I love you back. We might have to fight. What about to pay some bills? Taylor didn't ruin them. Ooh. Taylor, we might have to fight. What happened? Because she lost and she saw about it. You saw about it. Tell me she went to Iskabibbles this weekend. How are you going to win a race at Iskabibbles? That's true, yo. That's a good-ass point. Let's pay some bills. All right. Salute to Keeps.

Like, you go to like a health expo and it's all about physical health and things that are going on, you know, with people, you know, physically, but this is a mental wealth expo. And it's gonna be a day of mental health and healing education. It's gonna be on World Mental Health Day on 10, 10 at the Marriott Marquis Times Square, New York, okay? You can go to mentalwealthexpo.com for more information on that, man. It's gonna be just a great day of like, you know, we got a, like, like Debbie Brown's gonna do her podcast live, Michelle Williams, dropping gyms, Michelle Williams checking in. She's gonna do her podcast live, which is called Checking In. I got my man, Jason Wilson there. Jay Barnett's gonna be there. Dr. Alfie Breeland Noble. Angela Ryde's actually gonna be in conversation with Resma Menakim. If you haven't read my grandmother's hands, amazing book that discusses racial trauma in America from the black perspective and white perspective. It's incredible. So they'll be in conversation about that book. I'm at David McCullough, who has the mental health gym inception in Farmington, Michigan. He'll be there. And it's from 11 to four on 10, 10, and it's free to the public. You know what I'm saying? Like I don't feel like these information and these resources, you can't charge for anything like this. You know what I mean? So far from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., World Mental Health Day is free. It's open to the public. Marriott Marquis Times Square in New York is gonna be a bunch of different rooms that people can go in and out of and learn how to do yoga and meditate. We got rooms about, you know, plant-based medicine and how to heal through food. We got rooms that you can just go in and talk about anxiety and depression. We got rooms for family members who dealing with, you know, family who's schizophrenic, bipolar, things of that nature. So 10, 10, World Mental Health Day, Marriott Marquis Times Square. And then what happens is like a ticket they buy and they have access to everything Yeah, if you go to MentalWealthExpo.com, you can sign up, let us know you're coming because it's open to the public. And you also, you register to get like exclusive, more and more exclusive things when you're on site. But everybody's gonna get treated with love. Everybody's gonna get treated with respect. Like there's no, like this is just something like, when you doing stuff like this, man, you gotta make it free to the public. Like why wouldn't you give this information away? Why would you charge people to, you know, learn more about mental health? You know what I mean? Learn more about healing. If you truly care about helping people, I don't knock nobody who charges for stuff like this, but it's just like, you know, for me, I'm like, eh, you know, I want to make it free for everybody. I think giving the vaccine after free. I think the tricky thing is like, you can want it to be free for everybody, but that's if you can afford it. Like it's so cost money to like, you have to employ the people that are gonna work there. Get to venue, all of that stuff like that, yeah, absolutely. I don't think there's much wrong with like making money off of, let's say, helping people. Well, you get sponsors. Yeah. So the sponsors that want to attach their name to the event, you let them attach their name to the event and then that way you can take care of the people. You know what I mean? Exactly. That's all. That's it, that's it. I mean, that's a podcast model. That's every model, by the way. But I would knock it like you put out a book that, you know, shine a light on mental health and that book costs money, but it's still help people and I'm sure there are a lot of people that read that book. They're like, wait a minute, for 20 bucks, I got tens of thousands of dollars, maybe hundreds of thousands of dollars of like wisdom that really changed my life. That's a fucking bargain. Listen, I think all mental health care professionals should get top dollar. I think all spiritual advisors should get top dollar. I think all sacred purpose should get top dollar. Like they, what they do is great. At least for me, I pay for what I want. And I pay for what makes me feel better. And I pay for what I like. All of those things make me feel better. So it's like, whatever. You pay for the gym. You pay for the gym. That's right. We pay for all these things. That's right. I don't know. And when I say, you always give your drunk uncle a beer. You always give you a good word. There you go. Yeah. OK. Nah, I understand where he's going. I understand what he's saying. You're going to go grab a beer because you know that after you've given that beer. He's got some words for you, baby. And that's worth a Michelob light or whatever, right? Easy. Corona. Shut up. Invest in your mental health, man. You got some shit, yo. You might got some shit. I give Ron Kitis every year. No, no. Every year, I give Ron Kitis the same way we have to get that cold sore every year. I give Ron Kitis every year. Why do you have to do that? Why do you have to do that? That's crazy. Me and Shoste ain't even saying that. This is the first time saying a bunch of cough. That's crazy. We've been looking at each other. And so he say something, you throw me under the bus. A cold sore. You know, Dan, well, he gets it monthly this time. I see you cold sore like the month. You're going to say once a year, you're going to lie. I ain't getting a cold sore. It says Myrtle Beach, man. You're a liar. You're a liar. It says Myrtle Beach. You're a liar. One last time I got one. You had one, yes, that last year. Where? Right before COVID. Where? On your mouth. Where? You don't know where. It was on the left or right side. I don't remember. I didn't look that deep. He's got a cold sore. Exactly. Taylor, you ain't never seen Wax with a cold sore? Exactly. You happy they wearing a mask. That's the only reason you still wearing a mask. They cover up that goddamn cold sore. The back seat got me a cold sore. That shit coming. Around this time of year, right after his birthday, that shit come, bro. Man, I ain't listen to you. Right before I cry. Right after the third and before Halloween, that shit coming. That's it. That shit. That's actually a good timing because you were a mask for Halloween, so you covered that shit. That's right. Your cold sore is a great pumpkin, bro. That shit is rising. It never... All right, listen. Y'all listen to this and they're going to get crazy. It's not wrong with this thing. I had that one cold sore and I regret this shit. I shouldn't try to pop it, man. Taylor, what is it? I tried to pop a sore up here on my lip. That mean uncle my fucking... Am I skinned? It wasn't even on my lip. What do you mean? It was all y'all. Now you caught me. See what I'm saying? See what the fuck? See what the fuck? See what the fuck? See what the fuck? All right. Both of y'all got this shit. Taylor, let's do some shit you won't care about next week. Pull it up. My call. Sorry, guys. This is going to have to be a short podcast because... You know. Well, listen. We busy, bro. People making money. Charlotte ain't got a show out. And by the way, how much y'all want to hear from us? A lot. I don't. You talk for five days a week. God damn, it's the breakfast of the flagrant who is stand up. Okay, the talk show's coming next week. Like, all right. Yeah. No, I appreciate it. God forbid they want to listen to you. God forbid. I know. God forbid they want to do the same thing. You know what's so funny? We had to shoot money your whole life. Exactly. You know what's so funny? We had this conversation because there's a level of elitism in the podcast game. There is. There's a level of elitism. Because we've had a lot of success for a long time. And you know, sometimes you don't realize that, like, if you're getting 2,000 listeners a month on your podcast, you're in the top 3% of podcasts. Is that right? That's a fact. I think that's more indicative of how many podcasts there are. Maybe. You know what I mean? Maybe. I thought there was a lot out of there. There's a lot of podcasts out of there. It's a lot. No, for real. It's a lot. If you're getting a podcast, you're doing over 10,000 a month, you cooking. Advertisers coming. You know what I'm saying? But you know, we spoiled over here. I'm sorry. Don't you talk to an elite podcaster like that? Yeah, real talk. You seen our numbers? Yeah. Really? Yeah. What's that? You said what? Oh, my god. What? What? A listener trying to say, like, oh, they're trash anyway, blah, blah, blah. I'm like, well, that's not according to our numbers with Everett. No, that's not true. That's not true. We got to put it on the comments. Yeah, I get it. But that's not true, though. You can be trash with big numbers. You can definitely be trash with big numbers. Everybody, I hate when people use that argument. Like, I hate when people say, like, oh, I sold a bunch of records. So what? The album's wet. You know what I mean? Or like, you had a great stand-up, but the ratings was such a set, but the show was wet. You know what I mean? Like, I don't like that. I don't like that. Yeah. I did that earlier to somebody because they really did hurt my feelings on the radio. What happened? We was doing slanted at Breakfast Club and this woman called and she said, you need to go to college. You need to sit in somebody's classroom. I'm tired of hearing you on the radio asking questions that everybody knows the answer to. I'm like, what the fuck that got to do with everybody else? If I ask a why for something, why can't I ask why? Yeah. You know what I'm saying? How do you get offended off that? And I say, you keep me. No, because she said to me, have you ever heard yourself? I don't know why, but she stung me a little bit. Right? You get back to your own medicine. That's literally how you talk to me. Listen. So I said to her, I flexed on her a little bit. I said, I'm doing better than you. You said that? Yes. You were upset, right? You don't know what she's doing? I don't. That could be Thea. It stung a little bit. Like, tell me to fucking go to college. I don't want to go to no goddamn college. She was like, nobody cares about your honorary degree. Go get a real one. Wow. That's how much somebody you know. Who says, hey, your haters will know everything about you. Yeah. That's how much somebody you know. This is what I should have last night. I'm at this comedy club last night. And this comic, like, OG, wildly successful, will remain nameless, but like, wildly successful. She did it on you? No, he comes up, right? He sees me in a couple of homies hanging out. Ricky, you know Ricky. And Ricky, Ricky just did his HBO spin. Yeah, he did, man. We got to pump that. We got to have him on here. But shots of Ricky, man. Ricky Velez. Julio, Dan Soda, we're just hanging. And this comic comes down. He sees us all hanging out. He says, ah, yeah, it's a, all right. You guys just going to hug all night or something like that. I'm like, ah, come here, man. I'll give you a hug. He's like older guy, OG. Like, white and black. White guy, white guy. I won't say it. And he comes to it and I'm like, ah, come here. I'll give you a hug. He goes, he goes, he goes, oh, oh, hey, hey, Mr. Hip Hop grew up in East Village. And I'm like, OK. He goes, hey, Mr. Hip Hop. I talk hip hop, but I grew up in East Village. And my mom's a ballet dancer. And I'm like, I'm like, ah, when he said the mom's a ballet dancer, I just kind of laughed it because it's OG. His name's Clarence. He went to a private school. He's got real good parents. So I'm like, I'm just laughing because this is like a real, like, you know, this is, like a guy, guy, like, one of the ghosts. No, no, no, no. Not goat. Not goat, but like in success. In success. OK. Sorry, sir. And no, it's not that. And he goes into the room and I'm like talking to a boy. And I'm like, wait, was I getting like passive aggression for him? Right. And I'm so like crazy. Like I'm in my head. So he's coming off stage. So I'm just like, no, I got to talk to him, right. Because I'm going up next. And he comes off and I'm like, what's up, man? He goes, hey, yeah, where'd you go to school? Somebody tried to do it again. And I just go out and I'm like, how'd you know what my mom did? He got to study you. They got to study you. They got to pay attention to that shit. You got to pay attention to the hell I'm about to hate. That's not regular, like you just listen to a podcast. You got my Instagram bar. You went on a deep dive, you know what I mean? Like something triggered you. That's good. It was something bothering. I can tell you what triggered you. What triggered him? Your success. So he's at home. He's like, what the fuck's with this show guy? Why do people like him? Let me go see what it is. I think that's exactly what he is. They didn't come up on their road. I'm not going to lie. I love that. You supposed to. That's why you got to have women around you. It's why I love the fact that my circle is like 90% women. Because women will always get the real intel. I've had women come to me and literally say to me, this person asked, why do people like him so much? Like, what is it? Not in a like, hating way, but like, what's up? What is it with him? Why do people like him so much? And she's like, what do you mean? Like, and they have a real back and forth conversation. That's what that do to you? It was funny. And I asked him, I saw that the host is bringing me on stage, but I'm just talking to him. And like, give it up for Andrew Schultz. But I'm just like, I need to know like why. And he's like, oh, I must watch an interview or something like that. And I was like, all right, have a good day, bro. I'll take that. You ain't give him no bars on stage. You do research, bro. You ain't give him no bars on stage. This is like OG, but it's like that, like you said, it was one of those things like, oh, those guys are seeing something. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's exactly what it is. He's triggered by your success. He's sitting at home. And he's let me see what the fuck is up with this show. Because you know the thing about comedy, which it shouldn't be, but I guess it is, it's always competition. Like the competition is, it's not linear with y'all. Well, no, it is linear. It's like the goats are still competing with everybody that's here. If you're making noise in the comedy space, you end the game. Yeah. Chappelle, I mean, maybe not Chappelle. I don't know. Nah, and I was talking to a buddy of mine about it. And he said an interesting thing. It's like, even though we don't see him is that way, because you might like look up to somebody, like a lot of comics feel like losers. Like that's why they got into this shit. And like, they could justify where they are when they're like selling tickets. But then when they see like a show that we try to put on, like some like cool, like fun, like we want to make it like some rockstar shit, and it's selling the same tickets, I think that's where it starts to eat away from them a little bit. You know what I mean? You went outside the box and still made it happen. Yeah. Time's changed, guys. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, old geez. But it is funny how the research, the research. Of course. They want to know it. They want to think. Dang it, Dems. They're trying to figure out what's in the secret sauce. That's literally what it is. They trying to figure out what's in the secret sauce. And guess what? We don't even know. We're just being us. It's a secret from us. They didn't tell us. I can't even read. Why do you think I wake up every day thinking, God? Because I don't know how this happened. I knew what I wanted, but Lord have mercy. We're really God. I deserve for real. This is what I'm saying. Really? All right. OK. I mean, don't keep trying. God bless. God might hear some questions and be like, yeah, are you all right? I'm worthy. I'm worthy. I got to a December 2019. I realized now I'm worthy. I'm worthy. And you know what? Even if you don't necessarily feel like you're all the way worthy, know that God knows you're worthy. That's it. And he's here for a reason. That's it. And there's no things are bigger than you. Like, I'm just like, I'm walking in my purpose because everything I'm doing is bigger than me. Simple as that. God, God, just steps you up. What we got, Taylor? Oh, man, RIP to Michael K. Williams, man. God, damn. God bless me, damn. I was in for Halloween one year. Really? Yeah. Can you do that? I was Omar for Halloween. Oh, yeah. I didn't blackface. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I blackscarred. Worry, worry, worry, worry. Somebody was me from one year and they got in trouble. But White Guy? Yeah. That's wild. Yeah, it's amazing. Dressed, tubs, everything. Not going to be amigo, though. Rest in peace to Michael K. Williams, man, for real. That was horrible to him, man. People be dealing with things that you don't even know. Bro, and then they, I don't know what exactly it is, so I don't want to speak on the dead like that. But like, there were rumors that it might have been fentanyl. It wasn't a rumor. They reported that. Did they say it's a fact now? They reported that they found drug paraphernalia and drugs. They said it might have been heroin, but there was fentanyl in the heroin. Yeah, because they're in bed. I read this yesterday. They're searching for the dealers. I think they've opened up an investigation. His name in LA. Three comics died. I see all that. It was in ICU. The one that's in ICU? That's actually a, nah, maybe. Donnell's co-host or something like that? I thought that was Darius Rucka's ex-wife. Yeah, it is, right? I think it was like Donnell's friend too, or like it was on Donnell's podcast or something like that. Yeah, I've never met her, but I knew one of the other guys, Foo, and him, and it's crazy. They had a little bit of fentanyl in the batch of Coke that they bought, and then it's just a wrap. He cuttin' these shit with it. So that's the thing like, you gotta be careful, because if it's happened in New York and it's happened in LA, it could be the same name distributor that's puttin' that out there. I think that's what happened to Mac Miller too. God bless the dead. I don't know, man. Fentanyl shit is a problem, man. That's what I'm saying. Like, I don't like... You put fentanyl in weed? I've heard that in edibles. I've read that once. It wasn't like a, I don't think it's a thing thing, but I did read that one time. But it's like, yo, that's why you can't teach people. There's no right way to do the wrong thing. Like, I'm not gonna ever be sitting around here telling people to use drugs. I'm on my Nancy Reagan shit. Just say no, bro. Just say no. And if you are, if you do have an addiction, man, get that person some help, you know what I mean? Like, America got so much resources, and you know, so much dollars that they allocate to certain things. Allocate that to people who have addiction. Addiction is a disease. And we should treat it as such, you know? We only get that, but still, if somebody wanted to kill you, hopefully nobody just wanted to kill them because they could put rat poison in their food and go just as fast. You know what I'm saying? Put some antifreeze in there to drink. Yeah. So they was wanting them dead. That's the tricky thing about the drug use. You understood that, explain it to me. I understand what you're saying. It's like, you just want to kill somebody, just give them a drink. Yeah, you just want to kill them. You don't have to put them in fentanyl. You don't have to do it in the Coke. Well, that's the weird thing about the Coke because I was like, oh yeah, they're just going to go get the drug dealers. And then I thought, the drug dealer, the last thing a drug dealer wants is people to die on his shit. Because they ain't not going, exactly he's going to fuck up the business. So he's like, shit, someone laced my shit. So the drug dealer. Believe me, he don't want to fuck up his business. The last thing. I get what you're saying, but it's not like they're advertising it. Exactly, if somebody tows up after eating a sandwich, nobody's going to come eat the sandwich. It's the same thing. They don't know where they got it from. Bro, that's what we're trying to say. People are going to know who they got it from. Maybe, maybe not the last phone call in the phone. And that person know who you got it from, you know who you got it from. And you're going to have to keep on snitching and the higher you snitch up, the more dangerous it gets for everybody. And if you got that, it's only one or two people. You're not, it's not 30 people. And it's not like they have one connect. They might be going, just like people go buy weed from a bunch of different people. It's still, at the end of the day, it came from that farm, that person to you, or it came from you and that farm. It's not 30 people in that line. I don't think you can trace no cocaine back, bro. I'm not saying you can't, but I don't see it. Money is not death, it's, no. And what if the dealer wasn't the person cutting it? What if the dealer bought it from somebody? That's what we're saying. So who's the blame? You can't, if McDonald's serves you, I don't fucking know a burger that got a roach in it, but it didn't come from that McDonald's. Like the patty was already frozen in from wherever they get the patties. Is McDonald's the blame? Well, McDonald's always, I have to take responsibility, you know what I mean? Because they had a vendor, but in the drug game, I was asking, Al said, as a dealer, it's your responsibility to know if your shit is laced or not. Period. So maybe it should be the person, even if he didn't know his shit was in there, it's his responsibility to know his shit. Well, this should be the vendor's responsibility, especially now, if they're gonna be getting charged with murder and all types of stuff. If I get somebody who's waxing and got fittin' on and the shit, I know exactly where I got this shit from. You gonna tell him? You want to tell him you're discriminative? You think I'm gonna sit there and motherfuckin'? I'm legit. So I'm telling him I'm discriminative. There you go, man. That's what I'm talkin' about. That's what I'm talkin' about. Babe, babe! That's what I'm talkin' about. That's what I'm talkin' about. That's what I'm talkin' about. That's what I'm talkin' about. But that wouldn't happen. But that person wouldn't even fuck up their money flow. It's all shit. All this, at the end of the day, is still a business. I agree with you. It's still a business, man. I hit you. They already found a dude that put the fentanyl in it. I guarantee you by now, the drug... Not the dealer who gave it to them, but not even the police. If I'm the dealer. Like, if I'm the dealer and I'm gonna kill you, you're gonna die off my shit. I'm telling him I'm a drug. If I give you not much money, these motherfuckers come every time they come. I'm mad as hell at you. So it's like, if you're gonna kill my money, bro, you gave it to somebody else who put fentanyl in it, who gave it to that guy who's dealing or that guy put in it, you gotta have a conversation with that guy. Like, yo, you are fuckin' up the business for everybody. Now nobody wanna do dope in this whole town now. This shit is happening, though. Like, they had a... If you're a waiter that don't wash their hands at the restaurant, they get fired, right? Yes. One star. This shit is happening, bro. I just read, this shit I read in Houston. So, I mean, I get what y'all saying, but fentanyl clearly is big business because what was this bus out there? But what the hell? What the big business is? It's big business where they make it. You know what they make it, right? This was Houston two days ago. Shipman headed to Houston, had enough fentanyl to kill hundreds of thousands of people. It had the potential to overdose or kill 1.4 million people. 2.85 kilos of fentanyl hidden in wooden boxes. And they say it goes for $4,000 a kilo. But what is it, though? It's a synthetic opioid. They say it's similar to morphine, but a hundred times more potent. So, it's heroin. It's synthetic heroin. So, all they're doing is overdosing. It's not like if you get in your body, you'll die. It's overdosing. It's used legally. A little speck. You fucked. It's not to overdose. But if it's in a bag of Coke, you're thinking, oh, I could just snort this Coke. It's no big deal. Right to the brain. Boom. Done. And it says it's used legally to treat severe pain. But the DEA says- But like cancer patients and that kind of stuff. Yeah. But DEA says drug traffickers like it because it's cheap. It's $4,000 a kilo. And they mix in with other drugs, they increase the bulk. So, even though I understand what y'all saying, but clearly that shit is already big business. So, somebody don't give a fuck. I wonder who makes most of the fentanyl in the world. Can we look that up? Who makes most of the fentanyl in the world? I have no idea. I wonder who makes most of the fentanyl in the world. Can anybody look that up? Who makes most of the fentanyl in the world? I feel the way Andrew- See, Andrew's doing it. No, no, before you do that, let me say this. Andrew's doing what we do with our girls and we're trying to surprise them. He's leading us. I feel like we're going to China. I don't know. I feel like we're going- It's not what he was saying. And payback is his payback for the opium moors that Great Britain put them through. I mean, like, you know how many people in China who put crack out here? Who put crack out here? Wow. Where crack came from? Yeah. These are- Alex, just scroll back up, Alex. I was right there. Alex just Googled who makes most of the fentanyl. China is the number one supplier of fentanyl in the United States. That's right. It's right there on Google. It's also the main supplier to Canada and Mexico and also the fentanyl gets used to- gets laced in drugs in Mexico and then they get- It's the cartels and the latter usually is from the United States. You could make an argument that this is- Okay, okay, Andrew. Right. It's a drug warfare. That's a nice fun fact. Let's leave it at that. All right, okay? I think we got to edit free podcast. Send the boys out there! Send the motherfucking boys! Okay? Where's Chris and Anita? Oh, say can you see- Chris? By the dawn's early light. What do you know about this? I wanted to- I can't wait for Chris to hear this because I want to hear how Chris- I didn't know I'd be wrong. Oh, he's here! That's what I was thinking, Chris. I'm like, there's nothing wrong! Yo, Chris is Taiwan, bro. I recognize Taiwan, Chris. Chris, I recognize Taiwan. I know Hollywood too pussy, right? I know these rice companies too pussy. I recognize Taiwan. Thank you.

Listen though, for real man, thank you man. Thank you to everybody that listens to brilliant idiots on the regular, bully and the beats on the regular, flagrant too on the regular. We really, really do appreciate y'all. That's why we really, we don't like missing weeks of the podcast and everybody's busy, everybody's doing different things, but we come together to do this because I hope in like another year, we can do the garden. A brilliant eighties live podcast. That'd be fire. That's the garden. I think a year from now, I think we have all the weight to do that, bro. That'd be fire. I really do. I really do. I'm not mad at it. I think so. Early. Can we do Ask an Idiot, Taylor? We just talked about being on a time crunching. Here you go. Oh, they on a Reddit? Oh, that's an Ask an Idiot thread on Reddit? Okay. What we got? Do your bet, oh, okay. Oh, did you see Shang-Chi, the new Marvel movie? No, I haven't seen it. Alex said it's one of the best that he's- Phenomenal. You're only saying that because Chinese people own this building. Yo, ready? Banned from China. Why? They won't allow it in China. Correct. Shang-Chi? Yeah. Why? Not sure why, but... They made the movie for China. I know. They made it thinking they were going to get part of that money. You can't say that loud, oh, yeah. You can say China. Just guys, crazy. I appreciate it, but... Now, I want to see it. I haven't gotten a chance to see it. It's the best movie since Emgen. I mean, there's only been two movies. No, but including the shows and all the stuff that came up. No, no, Loki was kind of fired. It's better than Loki. Really? Yeah, it's good. What if it's fire, too, bro? What if it's fire? What if it's fire? What's what if? It's the cartoons, but you know what? At the end of Loki, they killed the King of the Conqueror, basically. And so it created the multiverse. And so it's like, what if just shows you all of these different things that happen in different Marvel multiverses? So it's just random shit. Like, it's really, it's really, really good. Yeah, it's a cartoon. It's on Disney Plus right now. Oh, it's a cartoon. Yeah, it's a cartoon. But Shang-Chi's fired like that? Yeah, probably some of the best action scenes I've seen. That I heard. Yeah. How was Aquafina? She's a superhero? No. Okay, okay. Ronnie Chang killed it? Ronnie Chang. Shout out to my man, Ronnie Chang, hilarious comedian. I got to see it. I want to see it. I want to see it. And it's so interesting because I don't know anything about Shang-Chi, even when I opened up my encyclopedia, my Marvel encyclopedia, he's got like a small paragraph. Like, I don't know nothing about Shang-Chi. Never seen him in a comic book, nothing. I know he's supposed to be an avenger. He wasn't avenger at one point. So, all right, this is a good question. Do your better haves watch the podcast? I know Carla watches yours. Hell yeah. Nah, my job. I got in trouble last time. I ask her not to. I don't want... I get in trouble all the time. Yeah. Never ask your girl not to do something she's going to do. She want to know why you don't want to know. I don't even say nothing. I just don't... My feeling is like I want to create freely. Like I want to say the fucked up shit and then... And it's just a show. Say what? And it's just a show. It's just a show. Absolutely. But for me in my head to have that clarity, it's just like, I just want to say the wildest shit. I don't want to be thinking like, oh my God, how could that be interpreted? What could she think? It's not even me as y'all anyway. So it's not even me as y'all. You've done nothing wrong. Scroll up, Taylor. I like this. What's that question? Shaul and Mayn, this is from Antonio Carabello. Shaul and Mayn, you have always been up front about certain things sexually, like having a finger up your butt. My question to you is that what year after getting the first finger up your butt, did you trade it into two, into three fingers? Fuck. Mayn, I remind you, the butthole is very expendable. So one finger for the last... Expandable? He meant to. Oh, the butthole is very expendable. So for one finger for the last 15 years plus, it's not going to be the same today. I don't even try. Yo, ass inflation is funny as fuck, y'all. Ah! That is hilarious, man. He's trying to say it gets swollen? Nah, he says it's going to be more open. That one finger that he used to take back the day is going to do the same for him. How much is one finger worth now, 15 years later, is what she's saying? Yeah, so what is it? So what is it? I don't know. How long was it before you had two and three? I'm too old for that shit, nah. How long was it before you had two and three? I never did two and three. Never once? Never? Nah. One little right before the knuckle? Little something. And wags? Trying too much. You need to try to crack. But? That's like trying to crack. That's exactly what it is. That's why she put her finger in it. She's going to try that little crack one. Try that little crack. Wow. How many would you have in there for your dream? What would your dream be? My dream date? No. How many fingers would you want in your dream? In your wildest dreams. What would you want? My wildest dream. In your wildest dreams. Probably none. This is not really going to happen. This is just your fantasy, your wildest dream. It's hyper-fingrical. It's not real. How many would I want to put into a girl? I wouldn't want to put my finger in her butt. It's just like doodle come out. No, your butt. Your butt. She puts like one. Why would I put my finger in my butt? Doodle's still going to come out. OK, a half a million are a date with Jay-Z. Which one do you want? A date. Date? Why would I want a date with a guy? By the way, that is a date. Salute to all you guys out there. Because I saw a title, tweet out, Take the 500,000. Which you should have known from the start. Anybody who argues that Jay-Z is wrong about whether or not you should take the money to go out with him, just say you want a date with Beyonce's husband, bro. Yeah. Straight up. It's fine, bro. It's all about what you really call it. Like, what's a date? Nobody cuddle up. Nobody holding hands or nothing like that. That's not a date. If you're just having a meeting with the person, the meeting is not a date. What was the date that made it go? A date, it means you got a kiss after. A lot of things happen when they kind of have a date. A lot of dates don't end in this thing. Yeah, but I'm saying if you want dinner with Jay-Z over the 500,000, even after Jay-Z tells you to take the 500,000, you still want that dinner, you really just want to go out with Blue's Daddy. Yeah, you want to go out with Blue's Daddy. Like, stop, come on. Let me throw a scenario out. We're discussing this on the flagrant. What if you have a business idea that you would want Jay to partner with and that was the only opportunity that you could? I'm taking that half a million dollars in capital and I'm going to launch my business and I'm going to give my business a profit. So hopefully one day hold with somebody in Rocknation and see my business and then want to partner with me. There you go. Jay does it all the time. He partners with people. That's what you're supposed to do. That's a good call. Give me another question, Taylor. I know I don't want to take one more. Let me get one more and then I'm out. One more and then we out. Glad you're keeping me on point, Taylor. Thank you. Thank you, big dog. Big dog, big John. Big John. Big Philly John. Big. Big Philly John. Damn, as soon as you go home and read it, all you see is Taylor, honest, critique of Taylor. It's like, they be on that scene about you, Taylor. They miss you, huh? Let's see, let's pick one good one. Let's pick one good one. Scroll back up, what's that right there? It's like free speeches, never free, is something that CTG likes to say a lot. But there's some episodes of parts that were never published and what was the general reason for that. Don't you worry about it. Motherfuck it up. OK, we'll be breaking in the WTF studios trying to find the lost files. You know what I'm saying? Fuck out of here, OK? Don't worry about it. Get up there. All right. OK. Those episodes taught us how not free speech is. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's the truth, though. Free speech is not free. I don't know why people don't understand that. Nothing's free at the end of the day. There's nothing free. There's a price to everything. There's a price to every word that comes out of your mouth. Everything you do. Everything. Everything you eat wrong is a price to something. There's a price to it. All right, that's it, guys. I think we got it. God bless. Yes. As always, if you've listed as podcast, you think we're smart, you think we're intelligent, you think we're brilliant, you're absolutely right. But if you've listed as podcast, you think we're just a couple of idiots who don't know shit, you're right, too. It's the Brilliant Idiots podcast. Thank you for listening. Peace.
