 It's so stupid, it's positively brilliant. The brilliant idiot's podcast. Yup, shawlamagne the god. Welcome to the brilliant idiot's podcast. We didn't do a podcast last week. We didn't do a podcast last week because it was Thanksgiving. Not to mention, do they know? They don't know, right? Oh, okay. I'll let, I'll let, I'll let. I don't know if he killed anyone. I just know they weren't. All right. Andrew's pregnant. I'll let him. Andrew's pregnant. He's expecting, but he'll be back next week. Next week, I believe, but yo, we had to take a break, man. It was Thanksgiving. And we're going to take another break for New Year's probably. I'll give you all the best stuff show like we do every year. But how are you? What's happening? We can just jump right into it. We're going to do all the usual segments. We're going to do asking idiot, a lot of asking idiot, but we're going to start off with what we saw this week. That was positively brilliant. And we're going to see this week what we thought made us say, what a fucking idiot. First and foremost, um, positively brilliant Django Django on motherfucking Netflix. Let me tell you something. What is that Django Django is a movie on Netflix. It's a Christmas movie. It's a holiday movie. It's a feel good movie. My wife wanted us to watch it as a family on Thanksgiving night. So we sat down and we watched it on Thanksgiving. And I felt like I wanted to cry four times. Now, mind you, I was completely sober. And it's one of those movies where she was like, oh, you know, the kids are going to enjoy this, whatever, whatever. But you end up enjoying it more than the kids do. Just because it's a lot of deeper meanings. My oldest daughter understood it because a lot of these Christmas movies end up being about belief and faith most of the time. Because, you know, Christmas is about Jesus, you know, the reason for the season. So a lot of these movies are about faith and belief. And, you know, Django Django is one of those in a Christmas story starring Ralphie has always been one of my favorite holiday movies. Probably my number one. It's not even close. It is my number one. That is my number one favorite movie. He's in this one. No, I'm just saying what Ralphie, the space that Ralphie holds in my heart journey from Django Django now holds in my heart. Like that movie is that good. I watched it six fucking times. And the second time I watched it, I was like, I gotta watch this while I'm drinking. And I gotta watch this while I'm on an edible. Absolutely balling. And you have like, it takes you through a range of emotions. You know, you got tears of sadness at one moment. And then you got tears of joy, you know, by the end of the movie. And it's a musical. I'm not one of those people that really likes musicals, but it's not like a corny musical. You know what I mean? Because it's Christmas. It's the holidays. It's a really, really good film, man. So Django Django on Netflix is positively motherfucking brilliant. And I too believe that the square root of impossible is possible with me. See, you don't even know what that is because you ain't seen the movie. Okay. But trust me, when you see the movie, you will understand that will, that will become your Hakuna Matata kids. Trust me. All right. What I saw this week that made me say what a fucking idiot. Nate Robinson's team. There's no reason Nate Robinson should have ever been in the ring with Jake Paul. I didn't even think that was a match that was really going to happen. I do remember vaguely, you know, hearing somebody tell me that Nate Robinson and Jake, Jake Paul was going to fight on the undercard of the Mike Tyson and Roy Jones fight. And I said to myself, that's a bad idea. The reason it's a bad idea because any skilled fighter, anybody that does combat fighting for a living will embarrass you. Okay. And people think just because you know how to street fight, you can get in that motherfucking ring and box with people. No, it's not the same. He's calling himself the new Floyd Mayweather. Well, he's doing that because he's trying to bait Floyd Mayweather into fighting him, which is actually smart because if Floyd Mayweather bites that bait, that's a big payday for Jake Paul. You know what I'm saying? Like that'll be a huge payday for Jake Paul and he knows that. So I don't think, I don't think he thinks he can really beat Floyd Mayweather. He just thinks that if he baited Floyd Mayweather into fighting him, you know, he can get Floyd to come out and do a, and he'll get a big payday. But Floyd would be stupid to do that. Like certain things I get fighting Conor McGregor, you know, Conor McGregor was the guy in the UFC at the time, but fighting Jake Paul, nah, you still have a great legacy. My brother, you don't have nothing to prove. Like that's like fighting the guy that runs up on you in the street and thinks they can beat you Floyd Mayweather. It's like a regular guy runs up on you in the street and want to fight because you the champ, you know, and if you the champ and he thinks he can beat you, you wouldn't put your hands on him or let him challenge you to a fight. So don't do that with Jake Paul. Let them know who you want him to fight. I want Jake Paul to challenge Clarissa Shields. That's what I want Jake Paul to challenge Clarissa Shields. Let me pull up Clarissa Shields stats, right? Clarissa Shields and Salute to Clarissa. That's the homie. Clarissa is, she's held three multiple world, she holds multiple world titles in three weight classes and she ranges the undisputed female middleweight champion. That's who Jake Paul should fight, okay? It would be a great matchup because it's black versus white because it's man versus woman. We have these conversations about equality and you know what women are capable of, what men are capable of. I think Clarissa Shields as skilled as a boxer she is. This is how much I believe in the science of boxing. As skilled of a boxer as she is, I think she will beat Jake Paul in that ring. And the reason I think she'll beat Jake Paul is simply because she has more experience. I really do. I think boxing is a science. Nate Robinson did not know the science. Back in the day, he was like, what's the science, God? Nate Robinson didn't know the science. The science is not leading with your fucking face. Did they not beat before? That's why they went into it? I think it started with some Twitter talk. And everybody's giving Nate Robinson credit and saying, yo, it takes real heart to get in the ring. Yes, it does, but it takes real brains to not get in the ring. Somebody like Floyd Mayweather was super smart. Floyd Mayweather was super smart because he picked his opponents. And he fought when he wanted to fight. And he fought who he wanted to fight. And he fought them how he wanted to fight them. Nate Robinson training for that little bit of time, getting in the ring with somebody who's been training the past four years, somebody who I've watched on pay-per-view before, somebody who actually boxes. That was just a terrible idea. A terrible idea. He needs to fire every single person around him. I don't give a fuck. Certain things aren't worth the money, man. Because now you got to be a fucking meme for the rest of your goddamn life. How do you ruin your basketball legacy? And you ain't even had a goddamn basketball in your hand. How you ruin your basketball legacy in the boxing ring? Whenever people think Nate Robinson from now on, they're not thinking three-time dunk champion. They're not thinking his 10-year NBA career. They're thinking about that knockout that he suffered in the ring against Jake Paul. And I don't even blame Nate Robinson. I don't think it's Nate Robinson's fault. I mean, it is kind of his fault because he's a grown man. He makes his own decisions. But whoever he had around him advised him wrong. Or maybe he just wasn't listening. I don't motherfucking know. But either way, it wasn't a good look for him. Y'all all saw him getting knocked out. And I want to see Jake Paul fight Clarissa Shields next. That's what you should call out, all right? Clarissa motherfucking Shields. But what? What you thought was worth the money was watching Tyson and Roy Jones. Well, I did that because I watched it because of the years of entertainment that Mike Tyson and Roy Jones have provided me. Roy Jones was the greatest fighter of the 90s. Hands down. There's nobody that knows boxing that'll tell you different. I know Mike Tyson was exciting. Mike Tyson had the video games. Mike Tyson had the reputation. Baddest man on the planet. Yes. He was he was all of that. But when it comes to pure boxing, just who's who's a better skilled boxer? Who was the best boxer, the greatest boxer? Roy fucking Jones. Roy Jones. When he was boxing, dude, who do you think really showed one? Do you think it was Tyson? Who the fuck cared? It literally like it literally was just watching two old men in there tussling. It was a guy. You ever seen two old men fight for real? Like at a cookout or something? No. When they really fight it to cook out, you know they're not really going to hurt each other until one of them go grab a weapon. Now you got to keep, you got to keep them from going to get the gun. I'll keep them from pulling out a knife or some shit like that. I'll keep them from cracking a bottle and then trying to cut the person with the bottle. Other than that, all they going to do is wrestle until they out of breath. That's the point where I thought Mike Tyson was starting to like see that or feel that demon or whatever he says he has. I don't think so. I think that fight did exactly what it was supposed to do. I think that, you know, you were watching two guys who, they know how to put on a show and they know how not to hurt each other. And I think that they sold the fight well. I think Mike Tyson was made to look aggressive, you know, leaning into the reputation that he has and he looked aggressive and he looked tough I guess for a 50-something-year-old man. Roy was claiming he was hurt and that's going to open the door for Mike Tyson's new Legends League. And people are going to continue to pay money to see Mike Tyson fighting in the future. They did like 1.5 million pay-per-view buys at $50 a pop. You do the fucking math. You know what I'm saying? 1.5 million pay-per-view buys at $50 a pop. Yes, they going to keep selling us these geriatric motherfucking fights, okay? You going to see Amanda Holyfield in there. You going to see, you might see Buster Douglas in there. You might see all, who knows? I don't even know. Is Buster Douglas still alive? I don't know. Lennox Lewis. I think he died. Buster Douglas died? I got a double check. See? That's how you know motherfuckers is old. When you have to check to see if they're still alive. And by the way, these guys ain't that old. I mean, they 50-something. Like, I don't know if Buster should be, Buster, if he's alive, he should have been in the 50s. He what? He's still alive. Yeah, apologies. He's alive. He's carrying them on, Chris. But that's how it is when you get older. When you get older and people ain't seen you or why they got to ask, are you motherfucking dead? But I thought it was brilliant. I thought that fight was politically brilliant, not because of the fight, but just because the way they sold it. 1.5 million paper review buys. The concerts in between. The great undercard, which I knew was going to be the most entertaining part of the night between Jake Paul and Nate Robinson. I thought it was great. What else did I see this week that made me say, what a fucking idiot? Democrats. And I want y'all to add this. Because I always talk about Democrats being terrible at messaging. And I saw Barack Obama, I think he was on, I think it's called Good Morning America, Snapchat or Snapchat America. Something like that. And he was having a conversation about defunding the police. If you watched the whole four minutes and 55 seconds, there's no way that you couldn't understand what he was saying. He totally agrees with the why of what defunding the police is. The why of what defunding the police is, is you want to take money from these inflated police budgets and reinvest it back into the community, reinvest it back into the school system, reinvest it into proper mental health care, reinvest it into just health care periods, create job training programs, just reinvest the money into the hood to the people that actually need it, provide opportunities for these folks. And he agrees with all that. He agrees with reimagining how people police in America. He agrees with police reform, all of that stuff. He just simply said, from a politician's perspective, once you hear defunding the police, motherfuckers ain't hearing shit else you got to say. It's interesting. We take for granted, if you want people to buy your sneakers, that you're going to market it to your audience. If a musician drops a record, there's going to try to reach certain audiences speaking to folks where they are. It's no different in terms of ideas. If you believe, as I do, that we should be able to reform the criminal justice system so that it's not biased and treats everybody fairly, I guess you can use a snappy slogan like defund the police, but you know you've lost a big audience the minute you say it, which makes it a lot less likely that you're actually going to get the changes you want done. But if you instead say, let's reform the police department so that everybody's being treated fairly, divert young people from getting into crime and if there's a homeless guy, maybe we send a mental health worker there instead of an armed unit that could end up resulting in a tragedy, suddenly a whole bunch of folks who might not otherwise listen to you are listening to you. And the reason he's right is because Democrats are so bad at messaging that they let the conservatives, they let the Republicans co-op the defund the police slogan or whatever you want to call it and turn it into something that is not. So when people hear defund the police they hear abolish the police, they hear get rid of the police and not actually focusing on what the why is, which is taking money out of these inflated police budgets and reinvesting that money back into communities that need it. There's no way anybody can flip that narrative if you just constantly talk about the why. And all I saw all day yesterday was motherfuckers arguing about the slogan. Police reform don't need a fucking slogan. It just needs to be explained. That's it. And by the way, there's nothing wrong with defund the police. It's just that the Democrats are so bad at fucking messaging that, like I said, they let the Republicans co-opt it and change the motherfucking narrative. And there's one thing that Barack Obama said, two things that he said I thought was brilliant. One, he said that Democrats need to stop leaning on all the old establishment Democrats and start leaning into people like AOC. If you want to move people, they are moved by stories that connect with their own lives. They're not moved by ideology. Now, one thing I will say about the Democratic Party, promoting young people is really important. We stick so long with the same old folks and don't make room for new voices. You know, the Democratic National Convention I thought was really successful considering the pandemic. But, you know, the fact that an AOC only got, what, three minutes or five minutes when, you know, she speaks to a broad section of young people who are interested in what she has to say, even if they don't agree with everything she says. New blood's always good. And he's absolutely right. And the reason he's absolutely right is because AOC knows how to message and communicate to those people that they possibly could be losing. But it's this line right here. This line right here that Barack Obama said sums up so much shit in regards to everything that's going on in this world, especially on social media. Barack Obama said... The key is deciding, do you want to actually get something done or do you want to feel good among the people you already agree with? And if you want to get something done in a democracy, in a country as big and diverse as ours, then you've got to be able to meet people where they are and play a game of addition and not subtraction. That's all social media is. It's groupthink. It's you get on there and it's constant reinforcement from people that already fucking agree with you. But that's echo chamber shit. How are you bringing anybody in new? Chris, am I saying anything wrong? Stop me if I am. No, no, I agree with you. And I agree with him on that. I think the area where he's kind of playing both sides of the fence though is when he talks about we have to listen to new voices, which I agree with him. I think AOC is the future of the Democratic Party. I think Katie Porter is the future of the Democratic Party. But who's really responsible for Joe Biden being the candidate, the president-elect right now? Jim Clyburn. Obama. It's Obama. Jim Clyburn. You think it's that? Well, a combination because Jim Clyburn is the one who got him over in the primaries. True. But it was with Obama's push and co-sign. You know what I mean? So you could look at that as being hypocritical or you could look at that as an example of what he's talking about, which is saying things is great, but there's practicality. You got to be pragmatist. And Biden, I guess, was the pragmatic choice in their opinion. And I think that's what people get fucked up with Barack Obama, right? Like, I think we look at Barack Obama in the symbol. The symbol of Barack Obama is revolutionary, right? Black president of America. Black president of America. He's revolutionary. Like, oh, shit, America got a black president. The symbol of Barack is revolutionary. But that's it. He's a politician at the end of the day. He's a centrist Democrat. Like, he's... And he was explaining... Barely. Barely, yeah. He actually leaves a little bit more conservative in some ways, would you say? Yeah. I mean, another thought I had, and I don't know if you've heard that, has there been pushback? I mean, he's being very vocal right now. He's being very out in front right now because he has a book to promote, right? Should he have been this outspoken before the election? Yes. Barack Obama should have been this outspoken two years ago, three years ago. And that's what I've always said. Once again, Democrats' messaging is terrible. The reason it's terrible is because everything that Donald Trump was doing was not normal. It was... It was teetering on fascism. And it was... We were really headed into, you know, really being under a fascist regime in a real way. They didn't do a good enough job of bringing the alarm about that. They made it seem like he was just another Republican. I have a question about that, though. Because aren't you... Because people will argue they're happy that Donald Trump was the president because it brings out the racism. Like on the Democratic side, I hear people say that it brought out racism and that it's another perspective, like a real perspective instead of a politician perspective and everything. Well, one thing America's good at doing is looking at the bright side. That's just the truth to the matter. Anything that's fucked up, anything that's negative, you can find something positive in it if you want to. And it might be some bullshit, you know what I mean? But you can spend anything to make it seem like, oh, well, you know, let's look at the bright side, guys. It's a lesson in everything. There's a lesson in this. Yeah, sometimes the lesson is, motherfuckers are stupid. That's just the truth to the matter. But motherfuckers were stupid when they voted for Donald Trump. We took the presidency for granted. And I can understand why people felt that way because in our minds, some of us felt like we never felt the trickle-down effects of what a president was doing in the White House, you know? But for whatever reason, it feel like everybody felt Trump. Everybody. All walks of life. Black, white, rich, poor, everyone. It just feel like everybody felt that. And I was reading, I read Barack Obama's book, because, you know, we interviewed Barack Obama last week. And, you know, David Axelrod has a line in the book that made me think about, you know, what a second Trump administration could have looked like. And, you know, I'm on record as saying, you know, the reason you can't connect with these brothers and sisters in the hood or connect with these brothers and sisters in these poor and disenfranchised areas is because they're already in hell. And that's very true. But David Axelrod said, when people already have it bad, they don't possibly think it can get worse. But it can. You know what I'm saying? Like, so I was just like, that is what a second Trump administration would have looked like for America. Like, yeah, you live in hell right now. But shit could get way worse. Whatever that would have looked like. But luckily, we avoided it. But, you know, just to go back to what Barack Obama said, I don't think he's wrong about the premise of the defund the police slogan, as he called it, the snappy slogan. It's a non-starter for some people. But let me ask you a question on that, though, because did the Democrats create the slogan, defund the police? Or did that kind of organically rise out of what was happening on the streets and then they ran with it? Yes, and that's another point I'm trying to make. Thank you for saying that, Chris. Politicians aren't supposed to talk like activists. Activists are supposed to talk like activists. Let the activists be radical. Let the activists talk about calling for defunding the police. Let the activists hit the streets and raise hell about police reform. And then the politicians that agree with them, but no, they can't go sit in Congress and try to get things like defunding the police past as far as the title is concerned. But yes, we can, you know, reallocate resources from these police departments into the communities that need it. You just can't call it defunding the police. But once again, if you approach it with that narrative, if you approach it with that explanation, if you talk about the why, not the what, don't talk about the what to defend the defunding the police the why. Why does this need to happen? Nobody can dispute the why. Nobody. I think it's kind of ridiculous though because when I hear defund, it's what also the definition of defund means though. Why are people not understanding that? Because the Republicans took it and turned it into something it wasn't. Like literally they brainwashed America to make America think defunding the police means abolish. Defunding the police means get rid of. That's why the best person I've seen answer that question was Senator Kamala Harris. Well now Madam Vice President Kamala Harris, and I posted this yesterday on my Instagram when she was on the view because Megan McCain, the way Megan McCain even worded the sentence, she said, what do you think about people wanting to defund the police, abolish the police? There's two different things. Kamala didn't even bite on the defund the police. Kamala said, yes, I do believe in taking away money from these bloated police budgets and giving it to the people that need it and she was breaking down the things that people need. Then Megan McCain doubled down and came back and said, yeah, but what do you think about defunding the police? Kamala said, defund the police. Don't even get caught up in the semantics. That shit is a misnomer. Don't even get caught up in that. We know what defunding the police is. We know the why of defunding the police. Focus on that. Everything else is just going to have you arguing about fucking words. Who gives a shit? That's my thoughts on it. I think that's all I have for positively brilliant. What about you joined our Lucas on the breakfast club? Snoop Dogg getting a deal to be a... We can do that and shit we won't care about next week. We can do that and shit we don't care about next week. Let me do this ad. Salute to Lucy. I want to thank Lucy for being a sponsor of the brilliant idiots this week.

All right, so with Scotty Pippin, Junior, and I'm sorry, it's not even Scotty Pippin, but Lasta Pippin, getting caught holding hands with Malik Beasley. Luther Malik Beasley. Malik Beasley got framed. Black men don't cheat. It's fucked up how... By the way, that's social media in a nutshell. Social media in a nutshell is literally we see something. We're not even fully aware of what we're seeing because we're not seeing the full context of whatever that thing is, and we all form these opinions. I saw Malik Beasley walking in Miami holding hands and the way it was brought to me and the way it was spun to me was he was cheating on his wife. And I was like, yo, this young boy is wild. You know what I mean? I'm like, he's 24 years old. Black men don't cheat, but young black boys do. And I'm like, he's still in his boy phase. He walking around Miami, holding hands with his side chick. I was like, yo, this dude is wild and he clearly wants to divorce. Come to find out him and his wife being separated. But people are coming at Larisa because, you know, he's older or she's younger. She's older than him and dating, you know, someone younger. That's corny. Huh? That's corny because that's a double standard. Don't nobody say that when old men be with younger girls. I know, but I just saw some reactions of people and like they had a picture of, I guess their kids and saying that they would be from that type of way. You know, the sad part about that is we always speak from a perspective of not being in a person's shoes. Because guess what? I don't know how old Larisa Pippen is. How old is she? I don't know. I guess she has to be Kim's age. So I guess 40. Kim who? Kim Kardashian. They were friends. Google her age real quick. Let me see how old Larisa Pippen is. It might be fake too. What, her age? Yeah. It says that she is, yeah, 46. 46 years old. You knocking that woman being 46, fucking a 24 year old until you get 46 and you tired of fucking these niggas that's on Bluetooth. You know what I'm saying? When you get to a certain age and the only thing you can do is fuck these men that's on Bluetooth. They got to get this Bluetooth to do you right. You're going to want some young penis too. All right. So don't knock that woman. I don't like that. That is a double standard I don't approve of. Cause if that man was, if it was a 46 year old man with a 24 year old girl, motherfuckers would be applauding. Okay. And saluting that man. So normalize cougars being with young women. Shit. Taylor mom being my DMs all the time. Say I knew something about the husband. My mom is happily married with a black man. I'm not saying she's not. All I'm saying is she been in my DMs for the past two weeks offering me pie. And what's her, what's her? Asking me over and over has Taylor giving you my pie yet. Why do you make it sound? What's her, what's her IG name? Um, Philly girls. Philly chick. Philly chick two on five. Oh, it's OG. Taylor's mom's IG is OG Philly chick two on five. All right. Anyways, I'm sorry they tried to frame you, my brother. Black men don't cheat. Keep up the good work. Yeah. His wife said that she was unaware of what was going on. Well, I guess it doesn't matter. They separated. Yeah. They don't have to know. You're right. Um, so G Herbo. More shit we won't care about next week. G Herbo. He is charged in Massachusetts with elaborate fraud scheme with designer puppies, private jets and Jamaican villa. Yeah. I'm still trying to figure out what a designer puppy is. I think it's the baby, a baby panda. I feel like the designer puppies are like kind of what, what's that? Oh, a Kylie has. Um, she has these ugly little dogs and they're really, I don't like them. But what if we find out a designer puppy as a baby panda? It's not, though. But these dogs are mad expensive though. Like a couple of thousands. I don't, I don't have an opinion on the G Herbo situation. Just like I don't have an opinion on the cast and Nova situation. Um, because I feel, and I don't think G, I don't know if G Herbo was a Rico case. I think the Rico, I don't, is Rico just in New York? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know if the Rico is a national thing or not. I don't fucking know. Um, but I feel like sometimes they grab these brothers who have a lot to lose and they lump them up in these cases, you know, with people that they may know, may not know people that they may grow up with, have grown up with, whatever, just to try to get them to fold. You know what I mean? Um, just to try to get them to give up information just because they know that these brothers want to be, be on the screen and they just trying to, you know, convict people to build cases. So I don't know. I don't have an opinion because I don't know any of the details of the situation. I mean, I read up on G Herbo situation. I read up on cast and Nova situation. And I just think it's a terrible situation for, you know, both of those brothers to be in. And I truly do wish them the best because I just know them from being a radio personality and, you know, interviewing them and having conversations with them. You know, I met tax. I mean, I met, um, casting over way back in the day. I think he had just came home and he was on house arrest. And, you know, he was, he was, he was doing security to make ends meet. You know, when you, when you on probation or parole, you have to have a job. And at the time that was his job. And, you know, to see him transition from that to becoming a rapper and a personality that people enjoy and people fuck with. I thought that was dope. So to see him in this situation, I think it's, I think it's horrible. So I don't, I don't have an opinion on ease the situation because I'm not, I'm not one of y'all Instagram detectives. You know, I was tripping. Say what? I was going to say, even a former NFL player, um, Carlos Rogers was caught in the scam too. But I didn't read up on this pool. Carlos Rogers, he's from Washington, the former Washington football team in San Francisco 49ers. I think I did read that story. Listen, all of y'all motherfuckers that have been participating in PPP fraud, you're going to fucking prison. There's no if fans are butch about it. If you have participated in PPP fraud in any way, shape or form, you're going to fucking jail. It may not be the day. It may not be tomorrow, but you're going to fucking jail. So God bless. All right. That's what you get that fucking fake ass business, that fake ass business. You put on that application. That shit is as real as Santa Claus. I did hear that from someone who's, uh, involved in improving the loans that they think it's like you said, it's not going to happen today. It's not going to happen tomorrow, but they're going to come looking for this stuff, for the documentation and the proof. And the person who told me was like, give it to maybe three years. A lot of people are going to get caught up in a lot of problems. Yes. A lot of people getting caught up now, but they, well, yeah, they've arrested a lot of people for PPP fraud, but it's going to be worse in the next two or three years because right now they get the big guys, right? The guys that are stupid enough to get a million dollars from PPP hundreds of thousands of dollars, but all you little $10,000 motherfuckers, you all going to jail too? Well, I just heard someone in, like someone that I went to school with, she just got caught $400,000 from a small business. That she never had. The business never existed. That's a whole other story with her. Pink pussy lips LLC. It's all for a nigga. What you mean? She's just spent mad bright on him and it was $400,000. Wow. Now he going to be out here dicking down another girl with money that you risked your life for, took a penitentiary chance for. I don't feel sorry for them people, man. I really don't. And the main reason I don't feel sorry for them is because I know a lot of people with small businesses who couldn't get access to that money. That's the other thing that bugs me out though. How is it so easy for the scammers to get loans but people who have actual legitimate small businesses? She used their cards though. They had a business card and she just would run or spend money on that card. How much are you good? I didn't even know what was going on. Don't do that. I was just saying that I know someone and now the guy left it for a white girl. That's all I'm going to say. Wow. Speaking of white, every girl you saw on vacation during the pandemic in a white swimsuit, absolutely was participating in PPP fraud. The white swimsuit is a tell-tale sign of motherfucking PPP fraud. The white swimsuit with a random woman on vacation, tell-tale sign of PPP fraud. Mark my words. I know somebody that's going to jail. Watch. Two years from now, Taylor. Watch. Two years from now, she's going to jail. Mark my motherfucking words. But you know the thing with the PPP, it's not only fraudulent businesses that don't exist. I mean, at the end of the day, these things are loans and I think a lot of people are operating as if it's free money. Yes. You're going to have to pay this back. Now, granted, you're not going to have to pay it back at any sort of significant interest rate, but you're still, so if you get 70, you still got to pay that 70 back. Maybe not this year, maybe not next year, but I think a lot of people just assume it's all going to be forgiven or it's free money. It's not. It's a loan. Well, it's forgiven if you're actually using it to pay employees. If you can prove that you have kept the same people on payroll for an extended period of time, I think they do forgive those. But for people who just kind of fudged it and came out with fake employees, it was like, you got to give that money back and I don't think people are really prepared for that. I mean, because I got a PPP loan, but I actually have employees and I used it for my employees and I didn't get no crazy ass amount of money. I did it because my financial team said I could do it. It was like, why not? You have employees and I kept all my people on payroll. I mean, you see with JT what happened to her. That's why she went to jail in the first place. So with the JT, today's JT born day. God damn it. Y'all going to start showing JT some motherfucking respect. Okay. JT from the city girls. And I was telling Taylor this earlier, JT from the city girls is actually one of the dopest female rappers out. And if COVID had in the hit, the city girls absolutely positively would have been the biggest shit of the summer. Cause that project that they put out the, what was it called? City on Lock? Yeah. I think it was called City on Lock. City on Lock is a phenomenal motherfucking project. Just the records they had on there like, what is pussy talk? That's your favorite song one day. Yo, don't act like JT in young Miami and Doja Cat didn't snap on pussy talk. Show some fucking respect to JT. Fucking broke niggas. Broke niggas don't deserve no pussy. Now that's a slogan. That's a, that's a slogan. She ain't saying that this week clear. No, she ain't saying it like that. How she said it? It was on one of her songs, like her makes tapes and everything. Well, I know one thing, not even a Republican could fucking ruin that slogan. It ain't no remixing broke niggas don't deserve no pussy. That is real clear, cut precise into the point. Young Miami got busy on that JT got busy on that JT. JT said, JT said the only thing. What, what she said? Oh, she said the only thing white is the lies that you telling. And you ain't moving work. That's dreams that you selling. If you really in the kitchen, pay a bitch tuition. She ain't asking for no fucking scams. She don't want no car. She don't want no bucket. She did ask for a bucket in the beginning of it. But on top of the Birkin, if you really in the motherfucking kitchen, pay a bitch tuition. God damn it. That's, yo, by the way, that's how you take a negative and turn it into a positive. You doing something you ain't got no business doing. You in the kitchen, you cooking up dope, you selling dope. Take that money, invest into somebody else. Take that money, pay a girl's tuition. Let her go make something of herself. Cause you just gonna go to jail and guess what might happen? When you go to jail in two or three years, she might be your attorney. Cause you paid her fucking tuition. Y'all gonna show JT some goddamn respect. Happy born day to JT, man. JT, I'm telling you, right now if this, if the COVID had to hit, that album, the city girls put out earlier this summer would have been the biggest fucking shit. Those two young ladies make great music. Amazing music. That ratchet shit that y'all like. So, so anyway, so going on to that cause I think y'all talked about it a couple of weeks ago. No, happened this week when the guy got upset, the owner got upset with people dancing on the furniture. Oh yeah, yeah, I saw that. So if that song came on, would you think that like, okay. Yo, broke niggas don't deserve no brunch. All right. And yo, stop. First of all, that restaurant, I think it's called true kitchen cocktails or something like that. Why do y'all keep talking about the music? Explain that to me. What did the music have to do with that situation? Like you say, like there's some tales or there's some, what do you call it? Some spirit girl spiritual. Yeah. Negro spirit. Does that make you want to, you know, I want to go as far as like, I didn't know they were hopping on furniture, but you know, it makes you want to twerk in every and dance. That man went to those women. Two times. Yeah. I didn't know that. Asked him, asked him nicely to just cool out. You know what I'm saying? Let's enjoy brunch. You know, let's, let's, let's, you know, no twerking or whatever the fuck it was. That young lady as a fuck you intentionally stood on the table, put her hands on the glass and started twerking. What did you expect that man to do? What do you, what do you think the white man would have done in that situation? Call the cop. You think the white man would have been calm and collective and went and had a conversation with them a couple of times. No, the white man would have called the police and had them drag the fuck out. That brother went to them twice, acknowledged them, asked them to please stop. They didn't stop. She did that as a fuck you. Now I don't think he should have stood in front of the restaurant and cursed it everybody. Yeah, that's it. I didn't understand that part. But I didn't mind the speech. I didn't mind the speech. I didn't like him telling them to get the fuck out. Yeah. But I didn't mind the speech because I don't know what context that speech was in. I don't know if those young ladies were still there. I don't know. I don't know what it was. I don't know, you know, why he chose to have that conversation to that room in that way. But I think it's different when you're black and you're talking to a group of black people. He thought that he could connect with his people in a different way. Like it was almost like talking to family. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm a black business owner. So I want to have this, you know, Martin Luther King, I have a brunch speech. You know what I mean? And I want to connect with y'all in a real way. I didn't think he did anything wrong to be totally honest, other than telling them saying, you'll get the fuck out. Like saying that to the whole restaurant. I don't think he should have talked to the whole restaurant in that way based off, you know, what happened with that young lady. But once again, he's a owner. That's his motherfucking spot. You walk in these white people, that should say no shirt, no socks, no shoes, no service. Y'all don't give the white man no lip. You put your goddamn shoes on, you put your motherfucking shirt on, and you go in and you get your service. Treat the black people with the same respect. Yeah, I get that too. But you know what? Back to your other question, well, just doing make sure that's a clip because I saw a meme that was like about based off of that, what happened? And I'll just show it to you because they were saying black people will dance to anything. And it was like a video of a black person dancing to like the ice cream song and everything. Ice cream song? What the fuck is that? Like the ice cream truck song. Huh? I'll show you the video. Don't worry. What does that have to do with what we're talking about? Because you were saying, you were asking the first question, you said why, what was wrong with the music that he was playing or why y'all making the world? I'm telling you, there's nothing wrong with the music. Yes, you walk into an establishment and you know, if I hear motherfucking, you know, boy, that pussy talk. Yeah, I'm a fucking, I'm a, I can't help it. You know what I'm saying? I hear nothing if you buck. It makes me feel the way. I can't help it. Those are Negro spirituals. But she did that as a fuck you. Yeah. She didn't do that because she couldn't. First of all, is throwing that ass in a circle is for a Negro spiritual? I'm feeling it is. It is. I remember that song a lot. Either way, I don't think it had nothing to do with the music. I just think it was a sign. It was, it was disrespected. No, it was a, especially if you're like, he went back to them and she's kept me. Man. Come on. Oh yeah. He serves good food there too. Clearly that shit was packed and ain't nobody in there had on a motherfucking mess. You have to shit y'all should be complaining about. No, but they were sitting down inside. Don't do. Man, it wasn't no social distance. And then people was close. They were, they were, but I'm the same. All right. Give me some more shit. You won't care about that. Drake announces launch of Nike sublabel, which he, I like the name of it. What is it called? I didn't look at the thing. Not, it's like short for nocturnal. And he said, it's for the creative who be up at night. Creative process. Yeah. I like, what's the name of it? What's the actual name of it? Nocturnal creative process. But I thought it was short. I thought it was like not told or something like that. Yeah, not the N O C T A. I love that name. I think that's dope. Hold on. N O C T A. Is that an acronym for something? Let's see. Either way, I like it. I like the whole, I like the branding of the nighttime creative process because that's tapping into, that's tapping into a market. People haven't tapped into it yet. And I used to always like when Drake would tweet out scary hours. Well, I only remember him doing that once. And now it's when back to back dropped. So I could be biased. And the candle he's making. I don't care about that. I don't want a candle that smells like Drake. What if he smells good? I tell you, he should have one called bottom. Why? That should be the first one. Started from the bottom. Would you buy a Drake candle? Called bottom. That should be the first one he puts out called bottom. Now you would look buying a candle. You're like, it always smells like Drake. And that should call bottom. So this is, it smells like Drake's bottom? Drake's ass. Aubrey's ass? Okay, more shit you don't care about. You didn't talk about with like Obama going to take the, what I should call the test, the COVID vaccine and camera on camera. Yeah. I don't know if y'all heard Barack Obama. It was him. George Bush. Yeah. George Bush said they'll all take the vaccine for coronavirus. I don't give a shit. First of all, how do we know that they getting it? And they said they would do it publicly. How do we know they get actually getting the real virus injected into them? I mean, the real vaccine injected into them. We don't fucking know. Like they can show us anything on TV. How do we know that they're actually getting injected with the vaccine? And I'm not an anti-vaccine person, even though I've never gotten the flu vaccine in my life. Clearly when I was younger, we got vaccinated because, you know, you had to be in school and stuff. And, you know, my kids have had shots now to be in school, but I'm not going to be the first person in line for that damn COVID-19 vaccine. Not either. And Barack Obama was talking and he said something like he understands why black people, you know, are leery about taking the vaccine because of the Tuskegee experiment and things of that nature. And it's just like, so I'm going to take it to show y'all. Let's never forget Barack Obama's half white. That's his white side talking. You know what I'm saying? The black side of him is like, you take, stick it in the left arm. The right arm is the black side. We ain't, we cool over here. Like that's his white side talking, telling everybody to go out there and take the vaccine. The black side is like, eh, I don't know, Barry. They also said that healthcare workers and long-term care facilities will be like the first, or suggested to take the first ones. As they should. As they should. Healthcare workers are around. People with coronavirus all the time. You know, people who watch over older folks, they should be, they should be, you know, on the front lines of taking it. Chris, you going to take it? I'm very torn about it, to be perfectly honest. You're not even black or white. You're not even black and white like Barack and Utahans. Imagine how Barack feel. Exactly. I don't actually take the flu vaccine because of Lyme, so I really don't take vaccines anymore. But if you look at what a vaccine is, I think a lot of people make the mistake of thinking like, okay, they say this vaccine has a 93% rate of success. And I think people mean, think that means if you get the shot, there's a 93% chance you don't get COVID. It doesn't work like that. What it really is about is how many people take the vaccine in general. So the thing's only going to be successful if the vast, vast, vast majority of Americans take the vaccine. If not, the percentage could be down like 50 or something because the COVID is still going to be circulating. So on one hand, I know for this thing to go away and for the country to get back to where it needs to be, I need to be part of the overall population that's taking the vaccine. We all do. That's the only way that any of this shit's going to work. On the flip side, I'm like you. I don't want to be the first one. I want somebody else to take it. But the problem is how long is it going... It's not like people are going to take the vaccine and fall down and drop dead or get sick the next day. Any side effects will probably take weeks or months to rise to the surface anyway. So it's a real tricky situation, to be honest. By the way, they don't need us. And by us, I mean black people. Sure they do. White people make up, what, 70% of this fucking country? Let all of them go out there and get the vaccine. That's more than enough. Are you saying, Chris, that a large majority of people have to get the vaccine in order to create some type of herd immunity? I don't understand what you're saying. Essentially, there's two terms. Efficiency versus... I can't remember off the top of my head, but kind of in layman's language, almost everybody has to take it to work. And you can say white people will take it. I can promise you the people who aren't going to take it are all these Republicans who are running around refusing to wear masks and that sort of stuff. So right there you can take all those people off the board. Then you got African Americans who are historically for a reason skeptical about taking vaccines. So as I see it now, you're going to have a large segment of the population who's not going to want to take this thing right off the bat. So people are talking about, they're going to start rolling it out in the next couple weeks and return to normalcy by summer. I don't quite see it, but I hope I'm wrong. You think they'll make it mandatory? I doubt it. If they didn't make math mandatory, I don't think they'll make the vaccine mandatory. The biggest problem I have, man, is you hear certain people talking, they talk about how coronavirus is impacting the black community and you got to make sure that this vaccine gets to the people that need it most. I think it was Governor Cuomo who said, we got to make sure black and brown people have access to this. I don't like shit like that. And the reason I don't like shit like that is because they don't have that sense of urgency when it comes to anything else. Where's the sense of urgency to invest money into the black community? Where's the sense of urgency to make sure our schools are good? Where's the sense of urgency to make sure that police are defunded? Where's the sense of urgency for job training programs? There's no sense of urgency to ever put any great resources in our community any other time. But when it comes to this vaccine, all of a sudden motherfuckers want to be Captain Savin and freaking come through the hood with this. Because we need you right now. That's basically what it is. Well, I'm not with it. But listen, I'm not going to say I'm against it. I'm just saying I'm not going to be on the front lines. I treat it like a fucking PlayStation. Y'all run out there, pay all that money for the new PlayStation 5, and then six months when they got the bugs worked out and they got better updates, that's when I'll go out there and grab one. If I need it, I may not even need it. What else you got, Taylor? Go ahead, Chris. What'd you say? No, everyone's going to have to get it at some point. I think as many people are skeptical like us, they're going to be just as many people maybe who are going to be like, oh, a vaccine, fine, sign me up. And then I can go back to normal. But then the problem is you're going to have those people going back to normal. They're going to be exposed. So long story short, buckle up. I don't see a light at the end of the tunnel, but again, I hope I'm wrong. Really? Nah. It's definitely light at the end of the tunnel. You're going to be back to normal by summertime, Chris. I hope so. Do you think that like no mask, like no one's going to be still? No, no, no, no, I would still wear a mask. I mean, I think the Asians had it right. Yes. I used to walk to the airport and used to see Asians with the mask on and I used to always say to myself, I used to always say to myself and I used to tell my wife, what the fuck do they know that we don't know? Why do you always wear a mask? This is years. They've been wearing masks. Every year when I go to Taiwan, you take the subway, you walk down the street. A lot of people have masks on. And again, the thing to remember is, the mask isn't about protecting you. It's about protecting other people. It's to stop you from spreading your germs to other people. So I think masks are here to stay. I mean, I don't see myself taking a subway without a mask. I might get on the subway next year. I'm going to have a mask on. I can't see myself getting a haircut or anything where I'm in close proximity to somebody without a mask. I mean, I think people are going to be wearing masks going forward. And that's just how it's been in Asia. And I think we're going to adopt that. And, you know, they knew. It's the same way like Asians don't wear shoes inside. The second you come inside, not all Asians, but, you know, my wife's family, a lot of Asians don't wear shoes. You know, when my wife started asking me to take my shoes off, I was like, why am I doing this? This is crazy. I never took my shoes off coming inside. Once you start doing it. I mean, that's a South thing. It's a South thing too. Man, wipe your feet and take your shoes off when you walk in my house. No, no. Take your shoes off and leave them by the door. Yes. My wife said now. White people are late to that, but I'm here to tell you once you start doing it, you realize it makes a lot of sense. You're not tracking dog shit, piss, all that dirt all around your house. We've been doing that since we were kids. Take your shoes. You walk and take them shoes. Don't you bring them dirty ass shoes in my house immediately. Really? Yes. Hell, yeah. I can't get out with today. White people are not washing their legs in the shower. This falls into the same category. No, wash your lace, bro. I keep hearing that. I don't know if that's true or not. I think there's probably some truth to it. Why wouldn't you wash your lace? That's a stretch. You don't wash your jeans like that, right? White people don't wash their legs and black men don't work out their legs. Biggest hell at the top. And don't do no leg work out. Yeah, I'm going to keep wearing a mask. The mask is tricky. The mask makes you brush your teeth more. That I'll tell you. I walked out of the radio station the other day and I kept saying the page. I'm like, do you smell dog shit? Did we step in something? I kept smelling it. I'm like, what the fuck? Boy, that shit was humbling when you get in the car and realize it's your brother. That shit is humbling. I said that a lot of people weren't going to wash or brush their teeth anymore because of the mask. No, hell no. Ain't no way in hell because whatever your mouth smell like comes right back to you when you got that damn mask on. That's it for shit you won't care about next week. Let's pay some bills. Come back and do some church announcements and ask an idiot. You forgot one thing. You guys don't talk about Dave Chappelle and I go on Netflix. You don't care? Oh, we didn't talk. Oh, we was off last week. Yeah. Dave Chappelle in Netflix. What were my thoughts on Dave Chappelle in Netflix? My thoughts on Dave Chappelle, I think Dave Chappelle summed it up very well. When Dave Chappelle said they didn't do anything wrong because I signed the contract. I signed the contract. No, no. He said what they're doing is perfectly legal because I signed the contract. What is it right? It's a good question. Can you explain what it is? Because I didn't really understand what that story was about. Okay. We can insert some of it. Basically Dave Chappelle was on Netflix. Dave Chappelle doesn't get any money from Netflix to scream in the Chappelle show because of a deal he signed with CBS Viacom or Viacom back in the day and it's that line man, that line that says we own your IP for perpetuity. You know what I mean? Which is a line that I get taken out quite often. That's just in the contract. That's the thing about contracts. You can't even take contracts. You can't even be offended by them. It's nothing to take personal. It's business. And you just have to negotiate your business properly. Dave Chappelle said I was 28 years old. He was young in the game. Right? He had a newborn son. He just wanted to eat. So he signed something. Some people can say he got taken advantage of. Probably did. But he's 28 years old. He's 28 years old. He's young. He didn't know any better. And now that he's older and he has the leverage to deal with that situation. He's using it. That's usually how it goes in the game, right? When you're young, you sign some bullshit. You get got. A lot of people don't get the opportunity to become a Dave Chappelle and can make that corporation right that wrong. By the way, the people who signed Dave Chappelle back in the day, they're not at Viacom no more. So they're long gone. But Viacom still has the rights to that IP. So shouldn't he be having the convo with Viacom then? I'm assuming Netflix is paying Viacom so he should be getting the cut of what Viacom is getting. Well, he is. His energy was directed towards Viacom. He had nothing but love and praise for Netflix because when he went to Netflix and told Netflix the situation, they removed Chappelle's show. So his gripe is with Viacom. But I think I'm pretty sure Viacom is going to make that right. But once again, everybody don't get to be Dave Chappelle. Dave Chappelle is a force of nature. He's a movement unto himself. He's a legend. And I think the way that he broke it down was very accurate. I signed the contract. I signed the contract the way the 28-year-old expecting father broke signs of contract. I was desperate. I needed a way out and it wasn't good money and it wasn't good circumstances. But what else am I going to do, I said. And all these white people sitting at that table told me, trust this, Dave, it's a good contract. And I looked around the table and they all seemed to agree it was a good contract. But what if what if they were all friends and I didn't know it? I'm going to be trying to tell you guys that I believe that Comedy Central gave me a raw deal just because I'm black. I believe that they gave me a raw deal because this fucking industry is a monster. Stuff like that is supposed to happen to you when you green. And then when you evolve and you get older you do what Chappelle is doing now. Some people choose to handle it behind the scenes. Some people choose to use their platform and voice their you know discomfort with the situation. I can't find the the Chappelle show isn't on any platforms now. I don't know if it's not on any platforms. I know it's not on Netflix anymore. I was watching that. I never watched it. I think it's been on HBO Max. But you know, he's 28 years old. Like I said, when I tell people things like it's all about how you negotiate. Yeah. When you get to a certain age when you and your late 30s, early 40s and you done been around the block several times. Yeah. You shouldn't be getting like if I get at this point in my career it's on me because I've been here. You know what I'm saying? Like I've been here. Another thing that Chappelle said that was very sharp was when he talked about you know lawyers and agents and managers and making sure they're not all in cahoots. You know what I'm saying? Because when they're all in cahoots they just trying to get the best deal for themselves. I've been in situations like that with agents. I've been in situations where I thought an agent was looking out for my best interest but the reality is the agent was representing me and representing a whole bunch of other talent and sometimes they negotiate against each other. Like they'll be like well look, I'll get Charlemagne to sign for this I probably should have got way more but I'll get Charlemagne to sign for this you know but you got to give this person over here a little bit more or vice versa I'll get this person to sign for this amount but make sure Charlemagne gets this I don't like that you know that's white but that's just the game and you got to know that and Dave knows that now and Dave also knows who he is and Dave is like run me my motherfucking money let's go back to the table and make this a fair situation for all parties involved you know but I was also wondering too I was wondering if I was wondering if at some point because it's hard for me to believe that Dave did two seasons of Chappelle show about to do a third season clearly it had to be some type of renegotiating going on because they offered him that $50 million deal that he ultimately walked away from so I wonder if you know what he wants now he could have got back then if he hadn't walked away because clearly there was some renegotiations that happened clearly it had to be two seasons of Chappelle show and then they come and offer him this big $50 million check like it had to be some other type of negotiations that were happening in that scenario so I was just wondering if he breached in some way shape or form because he walked away from the contract but you know other than that I think Chappelle is doing what we all should do you live and you learn it's not like Chappelle signed his deal at 40 something years old he was 28 brand new green had a new job he said that himself and you know like he said what they did was perfectly legal but is it right that is the question that is absolutely the question I don't know if it's right or not I just think it's business and I think in business there's no permanent enemies there's no permanent friends that's it so when you see situations like Dave Chappelle all you youngins you know when you don't I can't even sit here and say when you don't have that leverage because I don't think none of y'all are in a position to not have that leverage anymore and what I mean by that is most of these people that are getting deals from these corporations now they're getting deals based off work that they're already doing on their own they're getting you know partnerships now because of the fact that they have all of these social media followers or because they have all of these analytics that corporations can look to and say oh he's got this many views on YouTube or she's got this many views on YouTube or she sold this many records independently or you know she started her own YouTube channel and she's already got a built in audience like they got to approach you a little different when you've already built your own so I can't even sit here and say these kids don't have you know no leverage because they have all the leverage in the world trust me I'm an executive you know what I mean I'm in these rooms you know what I'm saying I'm in these rooms having these conversations about you know this next wave of radio personality, podcasted, TV whatever it is I'm hearing the conversation I'm telling you kids I'm not once again I tell you all this all the time you can either listen to the people who've never done it try to tell you how to do it or listen to the people that are doing it tell you how it's done I'm telling you you people have all the leverage in the world if you're building things on your own they're watching all of this shit they know exactly how much analytics you got they know exactly what your numbers are and make sure you know all of that so when you pull up to the table you can take it or leave it and it's very hard it's been hard for some years it's very hard to negotiate with this era this generation unless you're offering them some real life changing shit because they already good they making money they making millions of dollars doing what they're doing so you got to approach these kids with partnerships they don't fucking need you I think I saw something another day with 85 South show got like 300 million views on YouTube just off their podcast some extraordinary number that major TV shows don't have that major networks who have YouTube pages they don't even got those kind of views so what the fuck can you do with 85 South except approach them as a partner that's it there's nothing else you can do with people like that and they not the only ones is all I'm saying so trust me man you brothers and sisters you got all the motherfucking leverage use it guys like Dave Chappelle they went through that so you don't have to go through that that's it now let's play some bills before that just making it clear we got everything the Snoop Dogg what was your thoughts on him doing the commentary I thought that Snoop Dogg offered a real nigga perspective and I think real nigga perspective always cuts through to the bullshit when you listen to the announcers talk about oh my god he look at that punch oh he got hit oh he's down for the champ that's some old school dumb shit and by the way there was an announcer up there with him like that I can't remember the guy's name but he's that old school announcer when you just sitting there watching Snoop talk like how you and your homies are sitting around talking that shit cuts through I run here Snoop Dogg on every if he was a commentary on any sports thing I'm watching it because you know why? real nigga perspective real nigga perspective always cuts through I tell y'all this shit all the time and on anything when I first started in radio the best thing that ever happened to me was I did not know how to do radio I still don't know how to fucking do radio I still don't know I just used to open the microphone and talk the way that we talking the hood the way that we communicating the hood that's all I knew I didn't have background experience as a journalist as a broadcaster whatever whatever that's why my dumb ass got fired four times but guess what I stuck to that and the reason I stuck to that is because all I know how to do is be me I don't have experiences I mean I have experiences I don't have like education in a certain thing you know what I mean like nobody taught me how to do this like I don't have any other way other than to approach this microphone and be me and that's what Snoop Dogg does everywhere he goes there is nobody better at being Snoop Dogg than Snoop Dogg just like there's nobody better at being you than you and that's why you motherfucking keep losing cause you keep trying to be a second rate version of something else instead of being a first rate version of your motherfucking self and so Loot to Snoop for that performance during like the half time whatever it was and Lil Wayne was supposed to I never enjoyed someone I could not really enjoy rappers solo but I enjoyed Snoop's performance like I could watch them all day that's what you call classic catalog by the way there's not one artist who performed at that I didn't see the other ones well no I take that back French Montana performed YG performed French was with French was with Swae Lee I'm missing somebody French, Swae Lee YG somebody else performed and it's slipping my mind right now I can't oh St. John and I think somebody else but they all fit and the reason they fit is because you had the undercards and you had the Nate Paul I mean the Nate Robinson, Jake Paul fight that all made sense right got the young artists out there whatever whatever the reason Snoop was better than Wayne because Wayne would have ended up being the headliner because I think Snoop performed last minute because Wayne didn't the reason Snoop was better is because Roy Jones is of the 90s Mike Tyson is of the late 80s 90s and as Snoop said during his commentary he came up and that Roy Jones Mike Tyson era his music in death row was providing the soundtrack for that whole wave like we know Tupac the night Tupac got killed he was at a Mike Tyson fight but at night he got shot and then eventually died he was at a Mike Tyson fight so Snoop's music was the perfect soundtrack leading into that Mike Tyson Roy Jones situation and that's just classic catalog like you know Snoop Dog got nuclear weapons bro like that's just a once again man Snoop is a one-on-one like you can't duplicate Snoop Dog if you tried and trust me many people have tried and they have failed he's a one-on-one just like Dave Chappelle is a one-on-one some people are just one-on-ones and all of us and not even just some people every single person on this planet is a one-on-one you just got to be confident enough in yourself to lean into yourself that's it simple as that we get so caught up in seeing other motherfuckers and what they're doing and we see what's working for them and we try to duplicate that and that's how you lose once again don't be a second-rate version of somebody else when you can be a first-rate version of your motherfucking self now can I pay these bills Taylor you still want me to talk about a bunch of shit I don't care about it's fine all right let's pay some

their stories oh shit thank you Dwayne Zory Hall hot happy mess podcast that launched this week as well Zory is the homie that's that's that's one of my loved ones you know Zory I don't know what people notice but Zory when I started Uncommon Sense on MTV too Zory was my original co-host that's why that's why I picked to be my original co-host so like the original cast of Uncommon Sense was you know Zory Hall Deezus and Meryl those were my go-tos you know every week like that's what was on the show with me every week and me and Zory actually shot the pilot of Uncommon Sense together and then Zory was on the first episode but then she got snatched up by E so her MTV 2 deal was up because that's when I I was already at MTV 2 but you know they grabbed Deezus and Meryl and then they grabbed Zory and they weren't using them they knew that they were talented and they had them there and Deezus and Meryl was writing and Zory would do hosting things on MTV and MTV 2 but they weren't using them and then I came with the Uncommon Sense platform and I had Deezus and Meryl doing classical trash and Zory Hall was my original co-host so I've always saw Zory I've always had a love for Zory because she's really dope she's really talented and it was great to see her go to E and be super successful and I think she's hosting what's that show she hosts on NBC now what is that show I don't know what the fuck I keep thinking Ninja Warrior yes American Ninja Warrior Yeah Ninja Warrior Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah and she's on Access Hollywood on NBC like Zory doing her thing but her podcast Hot Happy Mess is available right now on the Black Effect I Heart Radio podcast network so like I said go to the I Heart Radio app type in Black Effect all the podcasts that we got are up

who've already downloaded and subscribed to the various podcasts on the Black Effect I Heart Radio podcast network we appreciate y'all now let's get to some let's do some asking idiots one of my favorite parts of the show because I get to answer y'all questions Taylor was trying to set me up to actually have people zoom in and ask me questions live fuck no right hell no not doing that shit only when the live show happens live event whenever that happens yes well speaking of your church announcements Miss Burner act wants to know I think she meant to say what what makes a great black influencer authenticity authenticity is what makes a great black influencer and the reason authenticity makes a great black influencer is because that person has probably become an influencer because they're authentic you know people see something in them that they can relate to they see something in them that they see in themselves you know that influencer speaks to them in a way that connects so when you're an influencer that authenticity that you being you you know I'm saying that you being the best version of yourself that you being a one on one they're hearing something from you that they don't hear other places and that's where that connection comes right so to me that's what makes a great black influencer or any influencer not even just black just authenticity like it's something about that person that you see that's just authentic and it don't even have to be for the people who you know give their opinions their cultural critics like me that can be the person you see on YouTube that's cooking you might buy into the way they cook and buy into their recipes just because they look like they having a ball they look like they really enjoy what they do they authentically love what they do and I think that's infectious and I think that's what makes a great black influencer that's a great question by the way also did you know that you had a tiktok someone someone made a tiktok for you then and he's like I guess all your dances I don't know that's what someone was saying I don't have a tiktok there's nobody that enjoys my dancing more than you that's you I really enjoy what's the name of the tiktok you're lying I knew it I thought it was about to roll off your tongue so easily it's probably something stupid like some dumb shit like tiktik78 some dumb shit I bet you that's what you put tiktik78 look so cbotch 246 wants to know do you think it's better for your mental health to keep up with the news every day or live in your own bubble wow great fucking question that's a great question I think that Lil Wayne he supposedly was in his own bubble and he seems happy yeah but you know I always ask myself living in a bubble and Lil Wayne is a great example because he always seems oblivious to everything that's going on around him that's not knowing not knowing is like can be considered but not because you don't know but just because you don't know you can say okay you're ignorant to the matter we always look at ignorant as a super negative word but it's not it's just a word it's just a word that means you don't know look up the definition ignorant lacking knowledge our awareness in general uneducated or un sophisticated okay ignorant might be too strong um all I'm saying I'm basically trying to say all that to say if ignorance is bliss why aren't more people happy so I can't sit here and act like isolation being in a bubble is good for you because even in the 48 Law of the Power it talks about how isolation is dangerous because you know you can cut yourself off so much that you're not even aware of um things that may be against you you know what I'm saying like you got to have your ear in the mix just enough to know what the fuck is going on because you got to know what's against you so you can thwart some of these attacks right so what's better for your mental health watching the news or living in a bubble I think I think being aware you're aware don't react yes be aware of everything cheese but acknowledge nothing you know what I'm saying I think that's what Taylor said is very true you know like what drives us crazy is the reaction like if you could just scroll through social media and never reply to anything you see on social media it'd be fine the mental health aspect is the part where these things trigger you things that are said about you are things that you see like you know you're scrolling through and you see somebody getting shot by the police or you see somebody I saw today's Tamika actually sent me this she sent me a video of some cops in the Bronx planting something on a on a kid while they were searching them and the kid is sitting there talking shit like I ain't got nothing yada yada yada this and that God was like yes the fuck you do because we already put it on you know what I mean so it's like stuff like that because that's the type of things that get into your brain and get into your mind and you constantly think that those things can happen to you you know but I think being aware and being able to acknowledge a lot of these things and unpack some of these things is good you know I don't think that your mental health like I tell people all the time when I when I go to therapy I'm going to therapy because I'm trying to organize all the shit that's in my mind I always use the closet analogy always talk about how junky the fucking closet is and you walk in the closet and you're folding stuff up that you want to keep and organizing things you want to keep nice and neat and you know putting them away and the things you don't want you're putting in a box and you're shipping off and now you got room to bring new things in like that can only happen with awareness awareness and acknowledgement you know so I don't think you know hiding from your makes them go away um I don't think putting yourself in a bubble is going to make any of these things go away I just think it's going to make it harder to deal with when you finally do pop up and get a dose of what's going on in the world so for your mental health I think it's better to be aware and acknowledge you know what's going on and what's the point of therapy if you don't know nothing you know what I'm saying you're going to therapy to unpack the trauma and things that happen with you you're going to therapy to unpack all of these things that you're seeing and you know experiencing like you have to have experiences in order to get um to get on the right track with your mental health so I think um I think watching the news I don't think there's anything wrong with being aware of I'm going to say too it's the difference between watching the news maybe than social media because you mentioned social media so maybe we just need to delete social media and then I mean I think it's all the same because the news is showing you a lot of these things that are already on social media actually a lot of the news is reacting to social media now you know what I'm saying they're reacting to things that happen on twitter they're reacting to things that happen on instagram I mean shit the president just spent four years on motherfucking twitter you know what I mean like so you know social media is the news nowadays so when you even say news I'm thinking about social media and I'm thinking about watching TV but I think the key is you know like I said being aware acknowledging but also you got to know when to pull back you got to know when to turn shit off you know you got to know when enough is enough like you don't have to torture yourself you don't have to traumatize yourself you don't have to punish yourself that you don't have to you know that's that's really what being mentally healthy is being mentally healthy is knowing when to unplug and um yeah that's just the thing I don't think none of us know how to unplug okay and um Hayes Day's podcast I want to know what advice you have for upcoming podcasters aw Ben same thing I said for the black influence yeah but they have to be like interesting because I think anyone now thinks that they can just hop on and just talk like it has to be some type of you're right but what's more interesting than somebody's authentic story like here's the thing you can't listen to brilliant idiots and say I'ma do what Charlemagne and Andrew do you can't listen to Drink Champ and say I'ma do what Nori and DJ Effing you can't listen to Matt Bonds and Stephen Jackson all the smoke will say I'ma do what they do you know why all of these different podcasters successful because they're all doing them yeah God put you on this motherfucking planet and put you through a set of circumstances and experiences for you to have a story I always tell these people that want to be podcasters radio host tell your story that one's gonna rip don't make me quote Dr. Seuss on you fuck let me quote Dr. Seuss on you let me quote Dr. Seuss on you you just have hold on man let me quote Dr. Seuss on you children's book today you or you there is no one alive who is you or you Dr. Motherfucking Seuss that is my advice to you what's his name? Hayes Day's podcast today you are you that is true it and true there is no one alive who is you or then you I promise you if you pull up at your true authentic self and you're interested and you got a story to motherfucking tell people will gravitate towards you I don't know why I will repeat it again stop trying to be a second rate version of somebody else you can be a first rate version of your motherfucking self authenticity man I'm telling you every I guarantee you any podcast you think of any personality you love they are so unique they have something that nobody else has and that's why it's so much for everybody because there's always somebody that you can relate to it's 340 million motherfuckers in this country who knows how many across the whole world everybody can have an audience everybody what else what by sha mark underscore A what do you think is the biggest secret being held from mankind um probably probably I knew you were going to say this someone also asked too if there's going to be a podcast about aliens and all that on black effect it would be dope it would be hella dope to have a podcast about aliens on black effect I would want to talk to somebody who's like done some real extensive research like one of those UFO hunters who goes out there and studies things like Roswell area 51 and all that shit who's actually had experiences and encounters I saw barack obama and steven cobert asked him about UFOs and barack was like I can't tell you what that told me everything I needed to know by the way I've been on the hill man and that video that came out with a pilot jet was watching that shit shoot by and the pilots were like what the fuck is that yada yada yada when I was on the hill and my guy I'm not going to say who my guy is when I was asking about UFOs he was like come talk to this person the only reason the guy told me anything is because the guy was leaving he was retiring yeah he was retiring and so he was like I'm only telling you this because I'm retiring he was like if I wasn't retiring then you might have to kill you and I started laughing he was like no I'm serious to this day I don't know if he was serious but he said there's a video on YouTube that you can go look up it was classified information but it's going to come out in a minute and we're going to verify that what you saw in that video was an unidentified flying object and I really think they're priming us I think they're priming us to have this conversation about you know not conversation they're priming us for the arrival to let us know yes there's other life forms out here that exist and you'd be a fool to think they don't in America the world needs this humbling especially America what would you do if you seen like face to face I have already face to face I was laying in my bed um I don't remember how old I was but I was laying in my bed and if you've ever seen the movie Science that's why I be thinking that a lot of these movies and shit they have to be late for something these movies are always based on truth because that alien that was in Science was standing over me just like how he was standing over motherfuckers in that movie remember when he was standing over Belle Gibson's daughter and he was like sucking the air out of her I was laying down and I woke up and I had the feeling like the hag was riding me and it looked just like the thing from Science except it was purple and black and as the sun started to rise it started to fade away I don't see that I'm an alien but you know nah you just you show up but you move tall Taylor and I've seen a flying saucer before I saw a flying saucer when I was 8 years old standing in my grandmother's yard playing when you and Shilce we had the conversation before and you was like look it might just be aliens coming like saying well if we rented Earth and they I always think about that and they back like y'all fucking this shit up y'all fucking this shit up man we gotta get these tenets to fuck up out of here y'all fucking up this beautiful ass place this all of this water used to be blue when we left this fucking earth to you fucking humans this whole shit was blue we left you with everything that you needed this land we left you with all the medicine you could just be living naturally holistic we left you with everything y'all fucking needed and y'all ruined it tearing all these goddamn beautiful trees down to fucking build starbucks what the fuck is a starbucks get these dirty ass humans out of my motherfucking property now that's what I truly believe I really believe earth is on the lease and humans is fucked it up and now the aliens are coming back and they gonna tell us we can do this the easy way or the hard way okay straight up alright you want one more yeah give me one more and we get up out of here I guess that was it no well the population well the population of the united states ever come together as one without the influence of an outside threat no not to tell you and even when the aliens come it's not gonna bring people together social media in the last four years have showed me mother fuckers don't really want unity and group operation that whole there's only one race the human race it's complete bullshit human beings are tribal creatures when we all look the same in a way like a little more similar not different colors and all that shit I just feel like you're saying there's not gonna be any unity I don't think there was ever supposed to be really I think we're supposed to the reason why there's different races and everything else we're supposed to try to understand the other side but I think there's always gonna be that it's impossible and by the way you can have all of that all of that variety right but human beings are just wired to be tribal we have our set of beliefs and we believe what we believe and if the other side don't believe it it's fucking and there's no nuance anymore there's no gray areas
