— [101:09.740 --> 101:17.800] up. I pay for it and show up. Tell that nigga, Freeze. Kind of, but yeah, kind of, but it's for you 2. Yeah, me and Lex is coming to that,

— [101:17.800 --> 101:25.800] too. I dare you put Lex out your wedding. He's going to put Lex out. Some people really bring their kids. People be mad. Some people really bring kids

— [101:25.800 --> 101:34.000] when you ask them not to. OK. You going to turn them around? It's going to be joints there. That's going to let me know if I want the kids there. It's gonna be joints there? Yeah, so it'll be joints there,

— [101:34.000 --> 101:43.160] sir. Let's go, Freese. Leave Malcolm home. Leave Malcolm in the house. It's time to hit that toso loco. After

— [101:43.160 --> 101:51.340] that ice wedding, boy. Yeah. We in that toso loco. You come in here, you should deep freeze. Toso loco. Toso

— [101:51.340 --> 101:59.340] loco. Just like stupid, yo. Your arse gonna do the toast at Free's wedding. Oh, for sure. It wrapped for you, dog. I got this exclusive verse that

— [101:59.340 --> 102:07.560] I wrote. I said, yo. I said. Yo, shit, man. Oh, man. All right. On to more, speaking

— [102:07.560 --> 102:15.640] of weddings, speaking of weddings, speaking of weddings, on to more social injustice. Yes, yes. There was a lady in Florida who booked an event

— [102:15.640 --> 102:23.780] space to get married. Okay, congrats. She paid 7, 600 deposit. She paid a deposit, paid her money, had the wedding

— [102:23.780 --> 102:32.200] date. Unfortunately, her groom passed away. Oh, man. Had a heart attack, 42 years old, may rest in peace,

— [102:32.200 --> 102:40.300] Super young, super young. Again, get all that shit checked out. Health is wealth, check on it, it is important. When the lady called the event space to try and get

— [102:40.300 --> 102:48.380] a refund on her money, the event space told her, no, we are not refunding this money. And why don't you throw a

— [102:48.380 --> 102:56.560] memorial. Oh shit. Memorial. Nah, I didn't say that. I mean you got the space already. You gonna let it go to waste. That's cruel.

— [102:56.820 --> 103:05.100] Maybe here's 1 the room would be a little more divided on. Let's see how we all feel. I mean, this

— [103:05.100 --> 103:13.220] is why you need, this is why people need insurance, right? If you don't have insurance, I mean, these companies in the contract that you sign, they tell you that

— [103:13.220 --> 103:21.260] in case of any event, anything covered, we're not responsible for, you know. They sign that. Giving you your refund. You sign that, because

— [103:21.260 --> 103:29.420] now, Uh-oh. Come on, Ish. It's unfortunate that, he could miss the Ish. Nah, it's unfortunate that home, He put a deep breath before

— [103:29.420 --> 103:37.460] everything. Nah, It's unfortunate that Homeboy passed away. He's like, you know them. No. This is mad. You're in the business side? I think I know where you're going. It's

— [103:37.460 --> 103:45.940] unfortunate that Homeboy passed away, but we could have had, man, other people want to book that date. And we gave that date away exclusively

— [103:46.100 --> 103:54.100] to you. We might can't never recoup that bread. So from- And on top of that, they start to pay for flowers. From a business perspective, we might

— [103:54.100 --> 104:02.140] have already allocated certain resources for that particular date. Do we know how close the wedding was to the untimely passing? May. It's going to be

— [104:02.140 --> 104:10.160] in May this year. But when will he pass? A couple of days last week. Oh, OK. So 6 months out, basically. I think that the venue could be, listen,

— [104:10.160 --> 104:18.260] we're going to try to rent this out, but the event that we don't rent this out, the deposit, unfortunately, we have to. That's what they should do. That's what I think a

— [104:18.260 --> 104:26.420] good way to do it. I think whatever they spent on the third party vendors. A lot of words for what you're saying. What it sounds like, I could be wrong, is that y'all are on the side of the event

— [104:26.420 --> 104:34.540] space. No, I'm just trying to find a happy medium. So being that the event is 5 months away, I think the

— [104:34.540 --> 104:42.780] particular venue might be able to find somebody else for that date. Now, if it was a month from now, and again, we've already allocated all our shit, yo, we both runnin'

— [104:42.780 --> 104:50.880] a business, and let's be clear, motherfuckers lie nowadays and be like, yo, this happened, that happened. We've all been like, yo, my grandma was a... But you can prove them off of your dad. You can provide

— [104:50.880 --> 104:59.240] a death certificate. You can prove it to my dad. I know. You can provide a what? A death certificate. You're not good with these niggas. Stop. This is the tech age, nigga. Nigga can

— [104:59.240 --> 105:07.640] play home, pamphlet, fly, and all that shit for $7, 600. And for $7, 600, I'll bring you to the funeral home and show them to you. Like, look, here he is. You know what I'm saying?

— [105:07.740 --> 105:17.020] So I'm on the side of just doing good business, and I think that there's a way to conduct. What if the event space ain't that popular? And

— [105:17.020 --> 105:25.040] y'all saying, I got 5 months, I could book it, but what if ain't nobody booked in a minute anyway? I think human decency has to play in here a little

— [105:25.040 --> 105:33.340] bit. But I also understand the business side. So to me, to your happy medium point, if as

— [105:33.340 --> 105:41.400] a business, it's very rare if you rent out wedding space that the groom's gonna die. So I don't think it's crazy to have a policy that if the groom dies or the bride dies, you get

— [105:41.400 --> 105:49.500] your money back. I think that's a good humane policy to have. It's not gonna hurt your business that often if the person dies. I do think though that any

— [105:49.500 --> 105:57.600] cost that gets spent out, you can deduct from that. So you shouldn't be able to profit off the death. But yeah, if I already spent money for a cater, because the problem

— [105:57.600 --> 106:05.660] is wedding venues do different things. Some are just a hall. Sometimes they're like the contractor and they take care of other things. So I may have already spent money on food

— [106:05.800 --> 106:13.900] or flowers or some other thing. I shouldn't lose money because your groom died. So I think, but I shouldn't make money off of it. Let me ask you a question. Every other vendor returned the money with

— [106:13.900 --> 106:22.160] the exception of the event space. Right, and that's what I'm saying, but I don't know if also that kind of know huh the the event space is unique

— [106:22.840 --> 106:31.120] Because all the other vendors like if you do on flowers, they don't start the flowers For a wedding in May in January, right? Right if you starting to cook the food

— [106:31.120 --> 106:40.380] We don't cook the food in January for a wedding in May. So the photographer, all those other vendors, they might not be time sensitive.

— [106:40.480 --> 106:48.580] The space might have turned down 17 other motherfuckers that wanted to rent the space. Well if that's the case, then I think that you could find someone else to take that. And I said that unless

— [106:48.580 --> 106:56.640] you do weddings and nobody's booking a wedding 3 months out. If you have a thriving event space business, it would behoove you to give me my

— [106:56.640 --> 107:04.740] little bit of money so I'm asking for it back because it's not going to be no event space. It's going to be a vision in your space.

— [107:04.940 --> 107:13.100] That's it. That's it. This will be the last event thrown. Well, the owner put $500 in her GoFundMe. The

— [107:13.100 --> 107:21.280] owner did that. You know, he just said that he did that on behalf of his business, he did that, you know. That was kind of him. Out of his business. Out of the 76 that he don't ask

— [107:21.280 --> 107:29.280] for the money. And the guy passed away in November. Thank you, Shaddy, for correcting me. November, the guy passed away. So you got a six-month leave. I was gonna tell you that. That's almost antagonizing when you do that now, yeah, don't tell me

— [107:31.100 --> 107:39.200] Now let me just ask you 1 question If the event space offered some level of an insurance and you didn't take it,

— [107:40.680 --> 107:48.860] which a lot of places do. Hey, you wanna take this additional insurance, but again, people wanna save money. So we're gonna

— [107:48.860 --> 107:56.980] offer you this additional insurance. You choose not to take it. You click off, you know, I deny, I don't want this. And this happens. You always tell when

— [107:56.980 --> 108:04.980] a nigga worked at an insurance company, right? Damn, Skippy. Yeah, yeah. Can't you always tell when a nigga put his, I used to work in insurance company insurance. All that

— [108:04.980 --> 108:13.020] shit though, fucking tickets. You go buy, you buy something off Ticketmaster. There's that box at the bottom that say, do you want to purchase insurance for these tickets? You buy flight tickets, same

— [108:13.020 --> 108:21.400] thing. It's true. So now I'm asking y'all, do y'all, if that were an option and that person said no, do we still feel the same way or some morally

— [108:21.400 --> 108:29.420] shit? I feel the same way. I think it's bad business to profit off somebody's death. I think again, if I took a loss, I should be able

— [108:29.420 --> 108:37.740] to reimburse myself to the extent of my loss but I'm not gonna sit there and just keep your 7, 600, all of it, just because you didn't check a box when your husband died and I'm in the wedding

— [108:37.740 --> 108:45.920] business. I also think just as a, what do you call it, like a branding or reputational thing is bad. You don't wanna be known as the people who didn't give a refund

— [108:45.920 --> 108:53.940] back when they had a heart attack. You look crazy. It's not worth it. I thought it was 7600. It's funny business, but it's sticky. I think

— [108:53.940 --> 109:02.080] just the time plays a major factor for me. So if my shit was booming, I know I could re-rent the space for that particular weekend. I'll give them their money

— [109:02.080 --> 109:10.280] back. But if it was a shorter time I would have some reservations I might give them half the money back. And the problem with the end of the- Cause

— [109:10.280 --> 109:18.640] my bad to your point you are essentially losing at that point. If I turned down other people I lost money. So that is a thing. And I think opportunity

— [109:18.660 --> 109:26.880] cost is a real thing, but somebody just died, you gotta eat that. But if I paid the vendor for you, if I paid a vendor for you, I'm not eating that.

— [109:26.880 --> 109:34.940] Humanity matters. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but you gotta, and again, that is just good business. I think the problem with the internet is, you don't get encouraged to think about the business side of it. And as a business owner, I

— [109:34.940 --> 109:43.060] do understand that. We just make the wedding venue the monster. Like look at these fucked up people that wouldn't get his lady of money back. And most people who are cosigning that have never

— [109:43.060 --> 109:51.180] had to run a business or put any money out for anything. In their lives. Yeah. Yeah, rest in peace, homeboy. That's absolutely hard. And my

— [109:51.180 --> 109:59.240] prayers, my prayers are with the, the, the with the for sure. Yeah. That's hard. Who wants to go through that? Speaking of

— [109:59.240 --> 110:07.260] when big freeze booked the day, they ain't asking for no refund. Freeze. I'm letting you know that when, when, When Big Freeze say this

— [110:07.260 --> 110:15.680] is the date and he go get the event space and hit Arsenal. That's the date that it's happening. When Big Joe get in this event space?

— [110:17.460 --> 110:25.860] Reverse, reverse. He keeps Big Freeze in, Big Freeze in. When Big Joe get in event space? When Big Freeze get that space? Yeah. That's when it's happening.

— [110:25.860 --> 110:34.020] Look at my side. When Big Joe getting event space? I don't think I'm doing an event space. What are you doing with that? Where

— [110:34.020 --> 110:42.180] are you doing it? There ain't a lot of questions. We'll just answer the win part then, I don't want us to get all confused. For the audience, if you're

— [110:42.180 --> 110:51.280] wondering why I'm not answering, my lady is sitting right behind me. I want that to be the most special day in her entire life. I don't want it to just be blown on some podcast. Right?

— [110:51.280 --> 110:59.460] I don't want that. I mean, on some podcast. For a guy with bad memories. I don't want that to just be fucking. You bought it at just now. Yeah. That was well done. That was

— [110:59.460 --> 111:07.580] well done. What the fuck was it? You wanted to be successful. That's all he could do. That was well done. That's the best move you could make. That shit was rare. Audie, it's my lady sitting behind

— [111:07.580 --> 111:15.600] me. That should be 1 of the best days of her life, man. I agree. I'm not making content. So you should be more inclined to say when that day is going to come true. I mean, you're going to be more

— [111:15.600 --> 111:23.920] inclined to let us know if you marry now or not, nigga. I'm not. The streets keep saying things. And what are the streets? The streets are saying things.

— [111:23.920 --> 111:32.360] That's not in my top 15. Oh shit. There you go. So what that mean? Don't believe the streets? Wanna come to you? I wouldn't. I

— [111:32.360 --> 112:03.920] do. You would, Messy Marvin. So you're saying you're not married yet? No, I'm not married. All right, then you heard it If

— [112:03.920 --> 112:12.040] I was married, He wouldn't know I was married? No! I believe that. How would we know? He'll tell y'all, nigga. He ain't hot and niggas don't know. You don't even share your heads. I

— [112:12.040 --> 112:20.740] got a real question for you. That adds on this point. So when you get married, you going to come here and say, yo, guys, I want to share something with y'all that got married? He would have to. We ain't going to see the bride. Of

— [112:20.740 --> 112:29.420] course. He'll say that shit on some chill shit. You and your wedding, right? I'd be like, yo, I got married. Yeah, like. He said, yo, we like, yo, what y'all doing this weekend? I'm doing some

— [117:37.500 --> 117:45.640] scoundrels. I'm running into you. You're a scoundrel. Are you crazy? What? You're a scoundrel, bro. My girl, she asked me. I believe you. She asked me, I'm

— [117:45.640 --> 117:53.720] answering. So did you ask your? No. Okay. And Mark, did you? No, I asked my pops. Got you. Mark, the answer's yes. Okay. Mothers and

— [117:53.720 --> 118:01.720] brothers. To your question. Thank you. I love you guys. It's a time you only want to understand. I got you bro so Right time

— [118:01.720 --> 118:10.240] to move on Nike just released a new sneaker. Did y'all see this? I did not. Oh my God, yes. Is this the 1 you get for Joe? No,

— [118:10.520 --> 118:18.720] hell no. Ain't Nike stocking the trash? It's over, Nike. Niggas is wearing the Walmart Avias. And I'm sure this ain't bad. The $20 Avias? I'm not going

— [118:18.720 --> 118:26.880] with you. I thought about it too. It ain't not bad. I thought about it. We can do that. After 45, you can do it. You could. Of course. You can do that with shit. It's not bad.

— [118:26.880 --> 118:34.980] Before 45, be honest with you. The $20 Avias. Do you remember Avias mark? Yeah So Walmart Walmart has a pair of Avias that... They not bad. They look, they resemble like all of the

— [118:34.980 --> 118:43.220] Asics and Salkanese that have been out. The shit's not bad. And the kids is rocking them now. But anyway. I love when they rock styles that don't cost a lot. So Nike, who knows what Nike's

— [118:43.220 --> 118:51.400] doing? I didn't see any Nike sneakers. So LeBron has a new sneaker out. What is it called? I'll go find a name. Go ahead. I'll find a name. But they have a new sneaker out. The color's

— [118:51.400 --> 118:59.440] turquoise. The flop sevens? It's in honor of Martin Luther King Day. They made a sneaker that is the color turquoise. It's the

— [118:59.440 --> 119:07.620] honor of the king. It's called the honor of the king and basically it's the color of the sign of the Lorraine motel, huh? Which is this hotel where Martin Luther King

— [119:07.620 --> 119:15.660] was assassinated? No, he's dead serious so they Yeah, so that's what they So the idea

— [119:15.660 --> 119:23.920] was they want to commemorate Dr. King in a special way. So they made a sneaker that was the color of the hotel where he was killed. This is disgusting. And, you know, LeBron's on

— [119:23.920 --> 119:31.940] it. His team, I don't know if his team was involved in the design of it, but they obviously supported it and advanced it. This is

— [119:32.620 --> 119:40.660] causing some outrage on the internet. I've seen some people say they're doing their best to honor Dr. King and they're trying to be creative, or other people say, which is my

— [119:40.660 --> 119:48.720] position, this is fucked up and inconsiderate, and it's the wrong way to honor Dr. King, even if you have good intentions. Did they include that like in the

— [119:48.720 --> 119:56.880] marketing? Like this is why we picked this color? Yeah, the color is literally, I mean if you look at the Lorraine Motel- It literally says

— [119:56.880 --> 120:05.200] the pair resembles Martin Luther King Jr. And draws inspiration from the historic Lorraine Motel, the site of the important civil rights activist assassination.

— [120:05.280 --> 120:13.660] The location is now home to the National Civil Rights Museum. But yeah. Wow. They let it be known in the press. This is horrible.

— [120:15.200 --> 120:23.320] This is part of what I think about why Nike is just kind of Fast-tracking themselves to a level

— [120:23.320 --> 120:31.400] of obsolete that I've never seen in my lifetime They I never thought it would happen and losing the fat of course growing up, right? How good you you you but I've never imagined

— [120:31.400 --> 120:39.960] But a big part of that is what they do for themselves branding-wise outside of the star athlete. I

— [120:39.960 --> 120:48.260] agree with you, 1000 percent. Like, they don't do themselves anything. Like, the Nike commercials are great with all the athletes and Olympics and

— [120:48.260 --> 120:56.500] those shits are great. And their brand deals when they are paired with LeBron or Jordan, anything outside of

— [120:56.820 --> 121:06.180] that large sports personality, it's like really soulless, like bland, like no

— [121:06.180 --> 121:14.380] frills almost level it's becoming. Cause it'd be looking like, they'd be on the right side of a lot of shit. Like when something go on, they

— [121:14.380 --> 121:23.600] jump on with, I remember, you know, the Asia Wilson thing, you know, They jumped on right away. It always looks like Nike make

— [121:23.600 --> 121:31.620] the right decision or some, with their athletes though, with their athletes. Or what they're- I think that's falling. Same. If you really wanna

— [121:31.620 --> 121:40.000] be honest, Nike has not popped. It hasn't been a Nike that had us like oh shit In a very very long time.

— [121:40.100 --> 121:48.680] That's why they keep recreating Jordans and Air Max's and Air Force ones. They just basically keep running to the well They come down

— [121:48.680 --> 121:56.680] the same mistake their treatment of Kyrie. Yeah No, do you know Phil Knight is 1 of the biggest Republican donors of all that shit? Like, even on the

— [121:56.680 --> 122:05.000] political side, they might not be as vocal, but they have not been the most us-friendly. They haven't been on the right side of culture

— [122:05.260 --> 122:13.380] in recent years. If we can make some money off you niggas, we with it, but I don't think they are parties to the people. See, I don't even think it's about that.

— [122:13.380 --> 122:21.480] Cause I think there's a tone deafness to this. Cause Republicans love him so Martin Luther King. Everybody loves Martin Luther King. Nobody doesn't fuck with him. So I think Republicans would

— [122:21.480 --> 122:29.620] be embarrassed to have a sneaker that makes fun or mocks or disrespects Dr. King's legacy. I think they just were tone deaf. I don't think they thought about it. I don't think they

— [122:29.620 --> 122:37.800] mocked him. But there's another piece to this. Unlike a lot of companies where there's not diversity in the boardroom, there's a lot of diversity in Nike design. There's a lot of diversity in the

— [122:37.800 --> 122:45.920] people who made this decision, these are probably black people who had a big voice in this. I think they just got this shit wrong. I think so too. I think because even now the spot is

— [122:45.920 --> 122:53.980] a civil rights museum now. So in their minds, even though it's known for this, it's still something positive

— [122:54.060 --> 123:02.100] today. That's what I'm saying. So yeah, let's honor that. I think they're proud of it. They put a press release out, like look at this shit. They rolled it out bad. If that's the

— [123:02.100 --> 123:10.460] case, they rolled that out horribly. I think of all the things you can celebrate Martin Luther King for all the moments you could commemorate commemorate of him Pick

— [123:10.460 --> 123:18.480] 1 where he get out have a dream speech pick 1 where he let a bus boycott Don't pick the moment where his assassins yes It's just weird and if you

— [123:18.480 --> 123:27.300] and for someone who died remember he's in it's a good point Memphis fighting for sanitation workers, fighting

— [123:27.340 --> 123:35.580] for workers' rights. I mean, it's a weird thing to make money off of the death of a moment like that. To me, it's just a very weird, very,

— [123:35.580 --> 123:44.280] very weird thing. Listen, I always challenged white people in these positions of power to just run it by black. Yeah,

— [123:44.280 --> 123:52.600] and that's what I'm saying. I think the blacks decided this. Yeah, but I would need confirmation on that before I spoke to it. 1 and 2, oftentimes

— [123:52.900 --> 124:01.000] black people are in these situations without a voice. Which black? And number 3, which black people? And dog,

— [124:01.000 --> 124:09.240] LeBron is a lot of black people that are disconnected from black culture, dog. It is, that don't necessarily make you home team. And LeBron is a black.

— [124:09.240 --> 124:17.300] LeBron is a brand conscious black. So you think that he's not gonna sit there and have a team of people, somebody, some blacks was okay with this. And thought

— [124:17.300 --> 124:25.340] this was the move. It ain't like, I don't think this is as tone deaf as y'all try to paint it out to be. The LeBron part of it is interesting, and I don't blame LeBron for the design or the idea. I'm sure some

— [124:25.340 --> 124:33.480] of his team said, this is great, to your point. But like you said, for somebody who wants to be the international superstar and

— [124:33.480 --> 124:41.480] beloved by everybody. This is a bizarre move. If I'm him, I'm pissed at somebody on my team who said, this is the 1. If I'm LeBron, I will be pissed. 1, 2, I'm

— [124:41.480 --> 124:49.580] not gonna fall for the brand pitch of LeBron is involved in every decision made. Like, I don't know that. I'm not even saying that he's involved in it, but the

— [124:49.580 --> 124:57.620] fact that he puts these sneakers on and they say, yo, this is what we doing. They calling him the king. Yeah, this is your sneaker. LeBron has also been seen in public reading the

— [124:57.620 --> 125:05.660] first page of 11 different books. I understand. Yes. That's different from selling a product. It's odd. It's something

— [125:05.660 --> 125:14.120] being like if you signed a sneaker deal and they said, do you hear the Air Autobots? Right? We're going to show you the room where Malcolm X was killed in the Autobot bomb. Instinctively, you would say something that would be a

— [125:14.700 --> 125:22.740] no. Or if they signed you, assigned you, gave you a sneaker and said this is the Air Autobahn, it don't even say about where he was killed or nothing. We doing this to

— [125:22.740 --> 125:30.760] honor Malcolm X. You would ask, you would look at, just get some more information on that before you just threw a sneaker on your foot. LeBron's car

— [125:30.760 --> 125:38.860] facts in terms of using his voice in pro-black situations, he has enough of it for me. So I

— [125:38.860 --> 125:46.920] just can't rush to put this on him or anybody that he has in place. I'm gonna assume that if he heard it or If he saw it and saw the correlation

— [125:46.920 --> 125:55.040] that was going on that he would stop it. I'm just assuming that I don't know I Would think sir. That's fair. Yeah bad move I'm I

— [125:55.040 --> 126:03.960] was a little irritated at some of the some NBA players were speaking out against those of us who? Voiced our dis dismay I saw Nick

— [126:03.960 --> 126:12.000] young Nick Nick young Swaggy P say shut the f up to Dave Dennis jr. Who said this is wrong. This is wrong He just said shut the f

— [126:12.000 --> 126:20.340] up Dave Dennis Jr. Is the son of Dave Dennis Sr. Who was the organizer of CORE, 1 of the freedom writers, basically, somebody

— [126:20.340 --> 126:28.380] who damn near died for civil rights, marched through the South and organized. So there's a tone, I think part of it is just us not having a sense of history. Because to even tell

— [126:28.380 --> 126:36.780] people to be quiet, who have every right to be speaking, says a lot about the disconnect. I don't think they were like, forget Dr. King, I just think we need to know more about our history. I agree with

— [126:37.060 --> 126:46.240] that. Yeah, I agree. I agree. You wanna talk about Mr. Tendonism? Who now? That's the dude with the ribs, right? Mr. Tendonism is

— [126:46.240 --> 126:54.300] the older black gentleman who is online and has been viral recently for showcasing the meat

— [126:54.300 --> 127:02.940] falling off the bone. Oh, okay. On the IG and the live show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Tenderism. Thought you renamed yourself. Oh, shit. All

— [127:02.940 --> 127:11.080] right, that was funny. You could be Mr. Gidget. No, no, no, That was funny. You could be Mr. Goodjune's kid. No, no, no, that was funny. You could be Mr. Goodjune's kid. That was a good 1. Yo, Ish. Yo, Ish. Yo, Ish. He got that 1.

— [127:11.080 --> 127:19.120] It was a good 1. It was a good shot. It was a great shot. Don't spread the next 3 out. I'm telling you, it was a great shot. No, You gotta acknowledge a great shot when it's there. I thought

— [127:19.120 --> 127:27.340] you renamed yourself. I want no problems. Tenderism. You are a tenderist. You good, dog. No,

— [127:27.340 --> 127:35.580] no, no. No, I'm on your ass. I know. That's all right, let go. No, no, no, no, I'm on your ass. That was too good of a joke. I want to keep my joke to myself. Now I'm on your ass. That was too good of a joke. I want to keep my joke to myself, bro. You never heard of Mr.

— [127:35.580 --> 127:45.640] Tenderism? No. Mr. Tenderism, that is his name. He's coined this phrase. He's all over the place. The meat does look good. It

— [127:45.640 --> 127:54.880] does fall off the bone. Oh. 0. This story began getting traction. Well, it's all over the place now. But. Keith

— [127:54.880 --> 128:02.880] Lee. Jordan first. Jordan went over there first. Michael Jordan. No, Jordan. Yeah.

— [128:04.020 --> 128:13.840] Who? No, I'm asking. What the hell happened? Michael Jordan, he just threw me off, Michael Jordan, I said, Jordan went over there? Who the fuck is Jordan? Jordan,

— [128:14.160 --> 128:22.180] the food taster dude that is online. He's so cool, obviously, I don't know him. The younger dude, he's got skits with Method Man and Michael D. Jordan and just

— [128:22.180 --> 128:30.260] anybody. But he went over there first, TastetheFool. Keith Lee then went over there, rated the fool. That's when the game trashed him. Keith

— [128:30.260 --> 128:38.720] Lee was trying to leave a tip for the older black man. $4, 000. $4, 000 or $5, 000. I thought it was $5, 000. But $4, 000 or $5, 000, he tried to leave a tip. He went

— [128:40.160 --> 128:48.280] to the front. They told him that the dude was unavailable. He was doing a podcast. You can't leave a tip for him. Keith Lee then offered to leave the tip for

— [128:48.280 --> 128:56.400] them to spread it throughout the employers. Homeboy said no. Homeboy's a white dude, by the way. Okay. Tender on it. No.

— [128:56.400 --> 129:04.620] No, no, no. Tenderism is an older black man. Okay. But the business owner is a white man. Got it.

— [129:04.620 --> 129:12.740] Is a white man. So let's see, let's see, let's see. So then they started doing all these fucking get out type videos saying that the white dude was calling

— [129:12.740 --> 129:21.020] Mr. Tenderism hostage and that he wouldn't let him leave. Then they said that the white man was jealous of

— [129:21.020 --> 129:29.240] all the attention that Mr. Tenderism was getting. And now the latest is that the white man has trademarked Tenderism. Oh

— [129:29.240 --> 129:37.240] shit. The white man and Mr. Tenderism did a, after Keith

— [129:37.240 --> 129:45.580] Lee did that, they spoke out. And Mr. Tenderism was defending the owner, saying that we have our understanding, the

— [129:45.580 --> 129:53.680] business is good. Because a lot of people were upset. They thought that they thought that misatendorism owned all the business belonged to him. So now when

— [129:53.680 --> 130:01.780] they found out that the white man is the owner and when you just, you just the face. It presents like a black owned business. Like when you see, When you see the older gentleman and

— [130:01.780 --> 130:09.920] you see the meat and it's comfort food, you assume that it's a black owned business. Yeah. Like a soul food spot that's owned

— [130:09.920 --> 130:17.920] and you go and patronize it because the older black gentleman, that's how they do. He's added to the business,

— [130:17.920 --> 130:26.300] has been huge, and is very visible to a lot of people. But then at the end of the day, it short changes so many other people who built this business, including

— [130:26.340 --> 130:34.340] this guy, who when I met him had absolutely 0. Wait, you lied. That's

— [130:34.340 --> 130:42.380] not the owner talk. That is the owner. He's in the video with Mr. Tenderism. His business has been huge and is very visible to our people. This video makes it look worse. But then at

— [130:42.380 --> 130:50.460] the end of the day, it shortchanges so many other people who built this business, including this guy, who when I met him had absolutely 0.

— [130:51.300 --> 131:00.060] What he- Okay, so now why this is a big deal is because pre-pandemic, this smokehouse was a coffee shop. Okay. A

— [131:00.060 --> 131:08.080] struggling coffee shop. And Then the older gentleman went near 1 day as a customer and then conversations were had and then

— [131:08.080 --> 131:16.120] it was his idea for them to start selling Smokehouse shit rids. Yeah, so then they started selling and this

— [131:16.120 --> 131:24.660] is now through the pandemic coffee and ribs and shit. The ribs took off. Right.

— [131:25.320 --> 131:33.980] Now it's not a coffee shop anymore. It's solely ribs, smokehouse. That's

— [131:33.980 --> 131:42.300] it. Being promoted by this elder black gentleman who people don't feel like is being fairly compensated

— [131:42.820 --> 131:51.020] because he is the 1 that got this restaurant on and popping. He's the 1 that has lines around the block. This restaurant has lines around the block now. We talked about this, we was like, you know, we go out there, we gotta

— [131:51.020 --> 131:59.280] go check him out because the shit look good on the videos and shit. I just think, I just thought it was important conversation to have

— [132:00.320 --> 132:08.660] when it comes to the protection of IP. Yeah. Yeah, that's what it sound like. But if you don't know what IP is and you're an older gentleman,

— [132:08.660 --> 132:17.000] you don't even know it need to be protected. It ain't even older gentleman. You just don't know what IP is and you come to somebody with an idea and they have a business mind. It happens

— [132:17.380 --> 132:26.140] every day. Every day all day. That person is up getting taken advantage of, unfortunately. Is it any different than the label putting up the money and now they own your masters? The

— [132:26.140 --> 132:34.320] same way Homeboy just clearly said, this gentleman didn't have any money, I bought something to the table, and so now he didn't have a pot to pee in, he's

— [132:34.320 --> 132:42.600] eating now, the gentleman might be getting compensated short term, but maybe not long term. I don't see it as any different. And some people are fine with just being in the position

— [132:42.600 --> 132:50.780] that the old man is in. That's true, especially if you ain't having it. Yeah, you ain't having nothing. I'm not, you know. That's a fact. Yeah. Some people are just comfortable being in that position. You know, let

— [132:50.780 --> 132:58.900] him do all the hard work. I'm not saying that the white man is doing all the hard work but I can do the cooking, I can do the cooking. I'm comfortable, this is what I do. Let

— [132:58.900 --> 133:06.900] him do all the business and whatever he gives me, I'm fine with it. Some people are comfortable in that position. I'm just happy people are marveling at my food. A lot of people don't want to identify that.

— [133:06.900 --> 133:15.000] There's a lot of these TikTok and Instagram lawyers and they want to get involved a lot, but comfortability is something that we have to identify. Yeah, OG

— [133:15.000 --> 133:23.240] might be cool. Like, OG is on all the recent vids looking cool and happy. He's saying, you my man, I love you. We done did this together.

— [133:23.240 --> 133:31.240] We came a long way. That's what OG is saying. But that's what happens is that somebody getting your ear and start telling you what you should be getting and what you should own and what you should do. And then you sitting there

— [133:31.240 --> 133:39.660] like, oh word, I'm getting played, I'm getting robbed. Or that seed get planted, and then next thing you know they done divided y'all. Now you sitting there, and the white man robbed you.

— [133:40.140 --> 133:48.480] We see this shit happen. The white man did rob. The white man might have robbed you. The white man did rob. How do you rob him? You may not know about him. Now trademarking and stuff. No, yo, let's say that,

— [133:49.020 --> 133:57.120] I don't wanna call it a robbery because it could be mutually agreed upon, but. A robbery. When you say robbery, though, do you mean like

— [133:57.120 --> 134:05.340] he cheated him, like he broke the rules or you just said he took advantage of him? I'm saying, and again, I agree with Flip

— [134:05.340 --> 134:14.240] that OG could be the happiest in the world. Now I'm just speaking about me in that position. If I change your entire business, there's

— [134:14.240 --> 134:22.440] a different talk that needs to be had. If your business changes from a coffee shop to a smoke shop, I mean a smokehouse. Yeah, yeah,

— [134:22.440 --> 134:30.560] no, that's a that's a whole new conversation. Before we get to the trademark conversation. But the conversation may have been that to flip's point. And

— [134:30.560 --> 134:38.700] on top of that, when you trademark something, he could put his name down. Well, people have their suspicions because you wouldn't even let Keith Lee give them that money. You

— [134:38.700 --> 134:46.860] wouldn't walk to the back, say, hey, Keith Lee is here. World famous Keith Lee wants to give you 4 or 5 grand. He wouldn't let him. So that's why

— [134:46.860 --> 134:54.960] suspicions are. Conversation probably don't even get had, had he taken the tip. Had he taken the tip and divvied it up

— [134:54.960 --> 135:03.120] amongst all of the workers, then it would have been no reason for suspicion. What if he, oh, yeah, that part. Divvying it up. Yeah, like it was like, what if you really

— [135:03.120 --> 135:11.120] wasn't there? Like you can't give this nigga a tip, he's not here. We got something we doing here, that's some social media. You can tip a nigga when they ain't there. Yeah, you can. And what if

— [135:11.120 --> 135:19.180] you put your white ass face there as the brand person for the smokehouse in Los Angeles? Right, Nobody want that. Yeah, that may work

— [135:19.180 --> 135:28.320] in Texas. Mm-hmm, I agree. I mean. I think it's bullshit. It's a yes. If

— [135:28.320 --> 135:36.760] you sign into a contractual agreement with somebody and that person is not knowledgeable, legal

— [135:36.760 --> 135:44.980] and moral are 2 totally different things. That's why I was asking the question. So you could be on the legal side of things if you sign a contract and says, yo, your name is Parks, we gonna make some shit

— [135:44.980 --> 135:53.240] and I'm giving Parks fucking a dollar off of every thousand dollars. Parks might be happy cause he didn't have a dollar before. That still don't make the shit

— [135:53.240 --> 136:01.240] morally right. Like once we blow up, I think you need to come back to the table and Parks need to start getting 50 cents every dollar or 30 cents every dollar, whatever the

— [136:01.240 --> 136:09.340] case may be, I just think that you should start treating people in a different way. I stand by that all the time. Y'all say I'm crazy when I say that. I'm not saying you

— [136:09.340 --> 136:17.440] crazy, I just say that it's not typically applied in today's business world. Unfortunately. And it never has been. I'm thinking about John Young, I'm thinking

— [136:17.440 --> 136:25.720] about who invented the Buffalo Wing and Mambo and stuff. And suddenly the whole country talks about the Buffalo Wing and where it originates from, but they don't attribute

— [136:25.720 --> 136:34.280] it to him. And he never got the money or the trademark or any other things that come with it. There's like a long history of black people creating shit. Absolutely. And

— [136:34.280 --> 136:42.380] music and art and food everywhere. Everywhere. Everything, right. Technology, all of that shit. So I'm really sympathetic to that, you know? But that's

— [136:42.380 --> 136:50.400] why we have to also do more education right now for people so that this doesn't keep happening because it's disgusting that it's still happening. You gotta be careful.

— [136:50.900 --> 136:59.220] You gotta, creators out there, you have to be careful sharing ideas with people that can execute them. And sometimes, I don't even like saying creators

— [136:59.220 --> 137:07.420] because that can Box people into 1 image of what a creator is and sometimes the guy that comes up with a fucking amazing river recipe is a creator

— [137:07.480 --> 137:15.620] But they might not look at it that way because we look at creators as people who turn on the phone and talk about Bullshit somebody that got that's nice content or somebody makes videos or

— [137:15.620 --> 137:23.740] something Oh, and this may I might go left with this but even if you say you put together an outfit and you create an outfit, and then somebody that takes the picture of

— [137:23.740 --> 137:31.860] you, they become the owner of that picture, if you know what I'm saying, Pops, right? Yeah, yeah. Even though you put it together, you created it, it belongs to them. So I

— [137:31.860 --> 137:40.040] guess the laws and the rules is a little bit different. Something to be cognizant of moving forward. Also, I mean, there's paperwork that

— [137:40.040 --> 137:48.040] you can establish before you get into the act of sharing ideas. Yeah, we know that. We know that. The

— [137:48.040 --> 137:56.140] world don't typically- And I didn't always know it. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. The world don't typically know that. Like if you sitting in a room and somebody come taste your oatmeal and you

— [137:56.140 --> 138:04.180] like, yo, this is the best oatmeal I ever had, man. Why you in this little thing? We could blow and you just think that you're the world gonna now get to taste my oatmeal. If I'm in

— [138:04.180 --> 138:12.260] that situation, I'm suing the white man and I'm a co-founder of this business. I'm not an employee. I agree with you 1000 percent. Because he can, like I said, the white man can put his name

— [138:12.260 --> 138:20.620] on a trademark. When he went to the trademark, he could put his name on it. He can put his name on it. He can't stop at the trademark. He got the recipe and all that shit just in case that old man passes

— [138:20.620 --> 138:29.120] away. The smoke shop not gonna stop. I know how to make, I was about to say, the rest of the employees here know how to make these. You

— [138:29.120 --> 138:37.180] about to say some like racist shit? Yeah. The rest of these employees here know how to make these wings, bro. Stop this out, bro. These ribs, everybody here know how to make these ribs. Dead ass. And

— [138:37.180 --> 138:45.200] Cory think that the whole tendinism thing is a farce and that they back there actually cutting the meat off the bone. I didn't hear that. And then letting it fall off. There were some cuts in the meat. I

— [138:45.200 --> 138:53.960] did hear that there were some cuts or something in the meat so that when they... You're going to do that to a black, I mean, white business, to a black and white business? Look

— [138:53.960 --> 139:02.140] what you're doing to a black and white business. Listen man, we are in the time of the... Yeah, we in the social media world, bruh. It's not rocket science to make meat that can fall

— [139:02.140 --> 139:10.440] off the bone, Paul. It's not. Let's go, Paul. Tell them. It's not a rare thing that someone would have to create some fucking conspiracy theory about

— [139:10.440 --> 139:18.500] fucking good race. I'm putting my thumb on the scale though. My business motto is the meat fall off the bone.

— [139:18.500 --> 139:26.600] Everybody want to come. Every piece of meat fall off the bone. All my meat dropping. Pause. No pause. It will if you. This is a repeatable thing. This is not a miraculous thing.

— [139:26.600 --> 139:34.620] I'm not taking no chances. It looks great. But I'm not taking no chances. I'm in the kitchen back just in case. Just in case. Somebody go and do the shit and it don't fall. Like, hey, hey, hey,

— [139:34.620 --> 139:42.900] now my business is done because 1 fucking content creator came in here and shot a video and the meat ain't fall off the bone. You know everybody coming in and waiting for your meat not to fall. Of course, they waiting for you to fail. Yeah. They

— [139:42.900 --> 139:50.900] want to be the 1 that catch you. Can I ask y'all a really, really, really, I'm done with Mr? Tenderism, he's got all my

— [139:50.900 --> 139:59.160] love. Can I ask y'all a really stupid question? Please. Of course, my favorite was, this 1 is real dumb. There's no such thing as stupid questions, John. That's a lot.

— [139:59.160 --> 140:07.840] I always hated when people said that. I was gonna fucking lie. My students be asking some dumb ass questions. Kids ask some dumb ass questions. Distinguished panel, please tell me, what

— [140:07.940 --> 140:16.640] does the song YMCA have to do with the YMCA? What's

— [140:16.640 --> 140:24.640] the chorus? I repeat, what does the song YMCA? Are we gonna do a lyrical breakdown now? I have it queued up already. Yeah, play it. Let's

— [140:24.640 --> 140:32.660] get out. Because now, before you rush to your gadgets and your phones. Uh-huh. I just wanted to get the words right. Just, well, I don't, well- In case it's clear. Please don't fall for

— [140:32.660 --> 140:40.720] the propaganda. Please, man. Come on, bro. I'm asking. Don't fall for the shit they be saying. I don't know what they're- Dedicated to gaming. It is. Well, no, that's-

— [140:41.480 --> 140:49.500] the Owner that wrote the song said it's not dedicated to any to anything. It just so happens. He's lying You know, He wrote the song. He said it's dedicated to the

— [140:49.500 --> 140:58.640] YMCA. YMCA, the song is about young boys coming out the closet. That

— [140:58.689 --> 141:06.700] was obvious. Hold on. I need to learn. Press play. Hold on. I thought everybody knew this.

— [141:07.060 --> 141:15.160] Now I can read what it says. I think that the connotation or the reason why it's adopted by the gay culture is because I

— [141:15.160 --> 141:23.760] think at that time people were going to the YMCA to do that. It says, wait,

— [141:23.760 --> 141:32.600] no, don't get him off the hook. That's what it kind of says. He might be wrong. He kind of says that. What? It says, The

— [141:32.600 --> 141:40.800] Village People's YMCA is a layered, on the surface song. It's a joyful celebration of the Young Men's Christian Association as a place

— [141:40.800 --> 141:49.140] for fun, sports, clean meals, and support for young men in the city. Gazebo. Tesla YMCA stand for? Yeah,

— [141:49.140 --> 141:57.380] you didn't know that? What you thought it was? Y'all mean couple of words? The Young Men's

— [141:57.540 --> 142:06.020] Christian Association. Yo, I'm just, I'm reading lyrics. It's like a gay song. It's like a boys club. It's all double entendres. Yeah. Dog,

— [142:06.020 --> 142:14.280] this song is about young men feeling free enough to be themselves and be gay.

— [142:14.280 --> 142:22.620] I think it's just a commercial for YMCA, but it just happens that the YMCA there's some gay shit going on so is that come on Paul. See I thought that was unfair

— [142:22.660 --> 142:30.900] to put that on the YMCA. You can't make the coming out song just be hey we we fucking down here. Young man

— [142:30.900 --> 142:39.120] all right. You don't have to be unhappy you can be gay Not this way it's happening that Vic yo

— [142:39.120 --> 142:48.240] stop Victor Willis denies it was written as we want to we want to listen to the Gay

— [142:48.240 --> 142:56.280] shit on people. Yeah, well no man that wrote the song said it's not about that. But Flip, he said he also acknowledged that the song had double entendres. He acknowledged that there was a- I'm reading it

— [142:56.280 --> 143:04.460] now. I mean, I've read a decent amount about this. He said both. He said it wasn't a gay anthem, But he acknowledged the song had double meanings in was victim gay which is that I don't know

— [143:06.900 --> 143:14.940] This song is about coming out I just don't know why they chose the YMCA. I told you that's what

— [143:14.940 --> 143:22.940] was happening Why that's I think that's what was happening I mean, I know some

— [143:22.940 --> 143:31.070] cities the YMCA is where you play ball and lift weights and shit, like in Philly, they were in the, but in some cities, the YMCA is literally just where people sleep. And a lot of men, especially men who were like doing,

— [143:31.070 --> 143:39.080] who were like in the streets would go there and people who did sex work would go there. Like in places like Boston and New York, like it was real popular for people to go there to hook

— [143:39.080 --> 143:47.160] up too. So it made sense. Also, let's not act like the Village People had a one-off. All this, y'all listen to Village People album? No, no, no.

— [143:47.160 --> 143:55.360] Mark, no. I didn't know they had an album. Me neither. I didn't know it was a re-one either. I didn't know it was a re-one either. You're wonder, but you like to say they hit it multiple times. I'm sure y'all heard Macho Man before.

— [143:55.360 --> 144:03.600] I thought this was like, Macho, Macho Man. Macho, Macho Man. Play that. No Man before People yeah, they're so cost of a mora. They also have a song saying Hot

— [144:03.600 --> 144:11.780] Cop. They have a lot of gay songs. How do you know that? You know how? You've done a lot of village people

— [144:11.780 --> 144:20.280] research. That nigga said I don't got to village people. 101 was 1 of those subjects I took on. I'm in tears, yo. They

— [144:20.280 --> 144:28.620] got a song called In the Navy. In the Navy. What you all heard before. Alright, man. I'm a cruiser. So the village people just made hot

— [144:28.620 --> 144:36.900] all the spots that The young gay boys was getting their bag. Yeah. He was very passionate about the Y. No, but that shit about

— [144:36.900 --> 144:44.920] the YMCA. That YMCA changed his fucking life. That shit came from the soul. With the Macho Men. That's crazy. Holy shit. And they say the

— [144:44.920 --> 144:53.040] Macho Men, what was their least gay song? That wasn't the 1 they were intending to be a gay anthem. But YMCA is kind of like that's their in the club. You know what I mean? Yeah!

— [144:53.720 --> 145:01.840] Right, that was the 1. It was the club. No, that was the in the club. Yeah, yeah. To this day. Action man.

— [145:01.860 --> 145:09.960] To this day. Big Mac. To this day. Do you want to spend an, all right. I'm a cruiser. I'm a cru, I have a roommate. Yo. I mean, they got a, I

— [145:09.960 --> 145:18.120] mean. But you know why I gave you so much pushback? I am what I am. You know the, People were saying the electric boogie song was about

— [145:18.120 --> 145:26.520] a vibrator. And I used to get mad about that online too. Like nigga, the nigga that made it. Cuz nigga, Bernie Weiler wrote that song. He's a fucking Rastafarian.

— [145:26.600 --> 145:34.700] He's not talking about vibrators nigga. You think Rastafarians can't talk about vibrators? He's not talking about, nigga, he's part of the fucking Bob Marley shit. He's not talking about that shit. And

— [145:34.700 --> 145:42.860] it's an insult for people to do that. You think Bob Marley ain't never pulled a sex toy out and did it, started playing with Shorty? Are you? I'm just saying,

— [145:42.860 --> 145:51.240] he's above that. That shit's better. Yeah, he's above that. The 60 sex toys must have been crazy. That's like you're plugging a wall. No, but that ain't about that,

— [145:51.280 --> 145:59.460] man. I'm so fucked up about these song titles they got. I won't take no for an answer. Just give me what I want. Whoa. Damn, I'm

— [145:59.460 --> 146:07.460] reading song titles. A lot of song titles can be crazy if you want to like. Yeah. Okay. Well, the name of the group is the village people. And then the 60s and 70s, right. Right, the

— [146:07.460 --> 146:15.760] village people. Again, these are subtle groups. You're kind of tracking a little bit. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But there's a long history of songs being gay. And then the writers often did not, like I mean, Lil Richard

— [146:15.760 --> 146:23.860] didn't, Tutti Frutti was a gay song, right? But like, at the time he didn't say it's gay, but later on, he acknowledged that it was Tutti Frutti, Good Booty, right? And then it changed.

— [146:25.780 --> 146:33.795] That's what it was. Wap ba booba, a wap ba boo. I didn't know that. Yeah, Tutti Frutti, Good Booty, that was what it was. I never heard that. Then he had to change it a little

— [146:33.795 --> 146:43.880] bit, because that was a little too much Well, you're saying that it was tutti frutti Yeah

— [146:43.880 --> 146:53.600] good booty screaming. That's when it got real good. I'm

— [146:53.600 --> 147:02.780] not listening. Oh my God. This a girl? Nah, it wasn't about that. Ask R'Lil Richie, he'll tell you. Alright,

— [147:03.060 --> 147:11.080] y'all answered my question with that old young men of Christians Association. In Jersey City, there was no Christians around that YMCA. There was gangsters in there. There

— [147:11.080 --> 147:24.580] was killers in there. Yeah, yeah. In Queens too. Yeah. I thought it was always like young men that carry arms That

— [147:24.580 --> 147:33.340] was a Christian hood Oh my god, they was fucking in the end of 70s I mean, I

— [147:33.540 --> 147:42.020] don't know why in a long time Oh damn. It may be in our area, maybe in our area. I ain't been to Hawaii in a long time. They still out there? What are you trying to say? You're right, you're out there. I wasn't going to do it. Sorry y'all.

— [147:42.040 --> 147:50.260] Young man. That sounded a little. I walked around. He did, He did. Russia was created in 1844. Oh boy, yeah, exactly.

— [147:50.260 --> 147:58.400] What? Came out in the 70s. Oh. So back then it probably was- They were like hostels. They were like youth hostels and they just grew up.

— [148:01.100 --> 148:09.500] I'm the most controversial podcaster on earth. YMCA's were hostels. Places for people to sleep. Homeless people, homeless kids,

— [148:09.520 --> 148:17.700] and shit like that, runaways. Is that what hostile means? Oh my gosh. Not hostile. Not L-E-E-L. E-L, like hostile. No, that's the 1 I'm talking about.

— [148:17.700 --> 148:25.920] That means that, tell me what that word means. Hostel is like a place when you travel and it's like a room. You just write Really cheap really

— [148:25.920 --> 148:36.500] cheap Yeah, yeah, that's where I am Globally

— [148:36.500 --> 148:44.680] this night, I mean there's lots of hostels where you, it's just like a nice, I stayed in a hostel like 3 or 4 years ago. Mark. Yo, all right. Why did

— [148:44.680 --> 148:52.800] you do that? I was in Palestine. Why did you do that? You got a big palace. God damn it. We came to get you. Fuck. You hit this nigga big. Yeah bro, you was in

— [149:01.020 --> 149:09.060] What the fuck? 3 years ago I asked Mark if he planned on going back over there. He told me, yeah, I'm just watching the clock. He'd

— [149:09.060 --> 149:17.280] have been everywhere but. I'm trying to get over there. He said he was trying to go. I just ain't got the time, because I got to go for weeks. I got a lot of people to see, a lot of stuff to do. But I'll be in the Middle East next

— [149:17.280 --> 149:25.980] month. So yeah. All right there's that. I'm glad my stupid question could- They got you

— [149:34.740 --> 149:43.060] MLK day, and get the speed. You could go to Black History Month. Nah, I ain't going to Saudi, man. I come back here with 1 hand, I be prodding. How many gigs you got going for Black History Month? I know that's when you're about to be in your bags.

— [149:43.060 --> 149:51.660] What? Every day. Actually, I'm glad you asked that, Joseph. Not that many, so if you want to book me for Black History Month, please, marklemonthill.com. Check

— [149:51.660 --> 150:00.720] me out. I could use a few more. But I think I'm in like maybe 4 or 5. Not that many. I'm trying to do bigger events, man. I can't do too much wear and tear on my body. Sounds

— [150:00.720 --> 150:09.280] like it. Yeah, I'm already, I'm worn out from yesterday. From the... My last... Tacos Locos. Tacos

— [150:09.280 --> 150:17.660] Locos. Oh, man. My last stupid question for y'all, and then we can move on to something of substance. If

— [150:17.660 --> 150:25.820] you're arguing with your girl... ...And you need something... No, that's probably the answer. ...And you need something from

— [150:25.820 --> 150:34.060] her... You humble yourself. ...Whether it be information or anything else. Do you time out the argument and pick up the phone and call, or

— [150:34.060 --> 150:42.080] do you thug it out on some G shit? I read a whole psychopedia, Britannica. You fuck off. I'm trying to thug this shit.

— [150:42.080 --> 150:50.260] I can't get information. Thank you, Ish. I don't choice, but I'm going to try my hardest to thug it out, bro. Mark's thugging it out. I'm trying to do anything but call her. Mark, thugging it out.

— [150:50.260 --> 150:58.280] Flip, thug it out. Joe. Same. Same. Now, but sometimes you got to put a pause to it. Hold on. I don't care about any of the pause. I don't care about any of the pause. I said I'm

— [150:58.280 --> 151:06.560] trying my hardest. I don't want to do that. Sometimes you got to put a pause because your wife made no mad shit that you just don't know. I don't time out the beef I only asked because we was laughing

— [151:06.560 --> 151:14.800] about Keno trying to do the ZEP and spilling this shit on the floor And I was like I said something to you, but we was beef and I was standing in my shit She's like you could time out the beef. Yo, that's really

— [151:14.800 --> 151:22.860] important. I would have helped you out with that. I'm like, it's never, it's no such thing as a time out with the beef. Never timing out the beef. Are

— [151:22.860 --> 151:31.320] you crazy? Nah, some of those can jab me here. I can get somebody else to do it. Hey, enough of that. Enough of that. It gotta be an emergency. It was a medical emergency. Y'all gotta be off the cliff.

— [151:31.980 --> 151:40.040] Yeah. Somebody had to die. Somebody had to die on a medical emergency. And even then I'm like looking for other options. You have to be

— [151:40.040 --> 151:48.060] literally the last option. Yeah, like. Sorry. Then I'ma do it. Sorry. 1000 is worth it. Sorry. That might be

— [151:48.060 --> 151:56.080] worth it. 1000 is worth it. I'll be proud for 1000. Cause I say if we could time out the beef. Do 1000 on Shannon. If we could time out the beef, we ain't beefing. Oh,

— [151:56.080 --> 152:04.240] that's a good point. If we could time out the beef, it ain't a beef. That's a great point. The beef can stop. Hey, I know we disagree on some things, but listen, where did you put the... No.

— [152:04.240 --> 152:12.320] What the hell, no? You ain't got access to me till we make it up. See, my wife times out the, now I'm thinking about she timed out the beef last week. We know, we can tell.

— [152:13.140 --> 152:21.140] But you said she was in the wrong. Oh, she was totally wrong. Oh no, she timed out, you said? She timed out the beef. Oh. She timed out, oh, she tried to time out. And you bitched up and let her. What am

— [152:21.140 --> 152:29.320] I saying? He did. We still beefing. You know what I mean? You're a hard ass. I'm just in the dominant position then I Feel superior.

— [152:29.980 --> 152:38.140] Yeah, cuz she come to me like I need help with something and I help her and then I go back to being mad. I'm up. Oh. Was that

— [152:38.140 --> 152:46.300] petty? Yes. No. Okay, I'm comfortable with that. No, it's calculated. No, you don't speak petty. I got a petty beef going right now. It's the pettiest shit in the world. I don't even care.

— [152:46.300 --> 152:54.360] Ooh, please share. Please share. I bust my ass yesterday on the ice. Walked out the house, boom! I mean, bust my ass. So I

— [152:54.360 --> 153:02.620] go and I tell her whatever, we cool. You all right? Yeah, fine. Like 3, 4 hours go by, she's gonna tap me out of nowhere and say, do

— [153:02.620 --> 153:10.680] you think the camera caught it? Oh shit. I said, why you think that? You got mad? Yeah, I got mad. Cause now she wants

— [153:10.680 --> 153:18.760] to go check the camera, pull the camera up and is dying laughing. So now we in the beat. Oh, she found it? She found it. Is it possible that she just

— [153:18.760 --> 153:27.760] slurred? Yo, Mr. Beast. Yeah. Yeah. Mr. Beast. This is why I follow people like you. Send that through. You got mad at that? Nigga,

— [153:27.960 --> 153:36.020] why you thinking about that so many hours later? We cool. And she's like, yo, yo, I just wanna ask you, I'm like, what's up? You think the camera caught

— [153:36.020 --> 153:44.160] you falling this morning? She already had it too when she asked you. Right. She probably did. Now I'm more mad. Did you have a hat on? You're trying to say he hit

— [153:44.160 --> 153:52.240] his head? Yeah, that shit flew off his head. I'm just asking, I'm trying to get the visual part. It was a prayer post, the little shape up. It was prayer, I was on my

— [153:52.240 --> 154:00.280] way to the barber shop. Oh shit. Oh, you look great. Now let me ask you. Oh shit. If your girl had fell, would you have cut the video? No,

— [154:00.280 --> 154:08.300] I wouldn't have checked the video. I know Icefall Goofy too. I know it's a good 1.

— [154:08.300 --> 154:16.561] It wasn't. I'm not even going to hold y'all. It wasn't. This was a very uncool fall, bro.

— [154:16.561 --> 154:24.660] It was the unexpected. I ain't even, you know how sometimes you can see some shit slippery? You can do like this, they go whoop, boom. I jumped up, make

— [154:24.660 --> 154:33.100] sure nobody saw me. You broke the ground? No, I was on, fuck nigga. Yeah, It was bad. Well, you're lucky to be all right. That's

— [154:33.100 --> 154:41.280] how niggas crack they spine or some junk shit. That shit hurt. That shit hurt. But, yeah, I was high. And 40-year-old bones. I was high. Like,

— [154:41.280 --> 154:49.500] yo, why you thinking about that still? What year was that? Walk right outside the crib. You ain't put no salt there?

— [154:49.500 --> 154:57.540] I don't do that. They do that. They didn't. No, no, no, they, the way you park at. Who's they, like the migrants? Who is

— [154:57.540 --> 155:05.600] they? Like what you talking about? Mr. Ice. Right, Senor Ice. Yo, do y'all have any thoughts on on on on on On them

— [155:05.600 --> 155:13.760] people saying that citizens of the US will need to Be able to prove. Yeah be able to prove that they are US citizens. I hate this country

— [155:14.160 --> 155:22.240] It's not funny. It's not and we have it. I'm not laughing. No, we haven't a good pile You don't want serious this up at some point. That's what they had to do in Germany. Like the

— [155:22.240 --> 155:30.500] niggas was going door to door like that. Like that shit ain't funny. I seen shit with them going door to door in Minneapolis, bro. That's scary. But also this is, and I agree,

— [155:30.640 --> 155:38.760] I mean, the worst case scenario is like a Nazi Germany situation, but also for black people We we've had to show papers for hundreds of years like this ain't even new for us

— [155:38.760 --> 155:46.780] I'm always fascinated when white people get outraged. They might have to live the way black people did for a long period of time It's awful. I don't know why they have to do that I think it's awful and I hope

— [155:46.780 --> 155:55.140] they can stop it. Because whenever, even with voting, even with having to show paperwork to vote, it was the same thing. It was like, if

— [155:55.140 --> 156:03.520] you didn't do anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about. But that's the wrong mentality. It's a hard road mentality. Yeah, and you keep eroding people's liberties. Not just that, what

— [156:03.520 --> 156:11.580] happens when they just pulled a black dude over in canal. He was cursing them niggas the fuck out. He like, yo, I'm not from

— [156:11.580 --> 156:19.580] here, suck my dick. Now you know I'm from here, right? I'm from Brooklyn. I was born in blah blah blah hospital in Brooklyn. Suck my dick. He said suck my dick like 40 times. They like, oh

— [156:19.580 --> 156:27.720] yeah, he from Brooklyn. They like, yo, he from Brooklyn. Yo, and they walked away. Then they got another 1 in the car with the black dude like fam, you could tell from my voice I'm

— [156:27.720 --> 156:35.780] born here. Even though that's not an indication, but It's like yo, dog, get the fuck, it is, but it's just like yo, fam, I was born and blah, blah, blah. They starting to

— [156:35.780 --> 156:44.240] be like, oh, I think your ID is fake. I think you have fake ID. Like what? So at that

— [156:44.240 --> 156:52.360] point, nobody is safe. Even if you were born here, if they have the privilege to say yo, or discretion to say yo, I think your idea's fake.

— [156:52.860 --> 157:00.960] And you say nobody's safe, the only thing I would add to that, because I know what you mean, is that white men are safe. The whole point of this is to protect white men from everything else. True, you're right, you're right. Because I don't see them

— [157:01.080 --> 157:09.080] going to fuck with, they not fucking with and no disrespect to nobody. I don't see them in the Serbian neighborhoods. I don't see them in the Albanian neighborhoods. I'm not seeing

— [157:09.080 --> 157:17.160] them in the Russian neighborhoods. And them niggas smuggle people like crazy and I'm not seeing it. I don't see them niggas in Chinatown and all of these other communities. They only fucking with

— [157:17.160 --> 157:25.180] the blacks and browns from what I can see. Yeah. And so don't say it's about American safety and liberty because you're saying that the only unsafe

— [157:25.180 --> 157:33.670] people are the blacks and the browns. You know what I'm saying? And that shit is nuts to me. Facts. Well said. Well said, I

— [157:33.820 --> 157:43.430] agree. I didn't mean us to take too much of a happy turn, but good job. Good job, you guys. Well, I've been killing segues today. So speaking of unhappy turns. What

— [157:44.840 --> 157:54.060] the fuck, y'all? This nigga's stupid. This nigga's bad. Sometimes

— [157:54.060 --> 158:02.780] you shock yourself, right? Sometimes. The fuck is stupid sometimes you shock yourself Nicki Minaj and Don Lemon We

— [158:02.780 --> 158:10.900] can't leave this show without at least acknowledging what happened. And by we, you mean you. I could leave here and have the greatest of days. The words

— [158:10.900 --> 158:18.940] sleep like a baby. Oh my God. Perfect day. Oh my Lord. Magnesium sleep. Y'all already leaving me. So now the bar is gonna be like, they ain't even wanna talk about it. Mark Maidum talk about it.

— [158:18.940 --> 158:27.060] I get it, I get it. It's on the board and I ain't write it, but we'll do it. I'ma do it, because I think it's worth doing. Nicki Minaj wrote a tweet about

— [158:27.060 --> 158:35.480] Don Lemon, the former CNN host, respected journalist, revered member of the black community. She wrote,

— [158:35.620 --> 158:43.620] Don cocksucking Lemon is disgusting. How dare you? I want that thug in jail. He would never do that to any other religion. Lock

— [158:43.620 --> 158:51.860] him up. What was this in regard to? And has the image of the Chucky doll. This was in

— [158:51.860 --> 159:00.100] response to Don Lemon reporting on what happened in that church, right? Yeah, Don Lemon met up with some people who went into the church

— [159:00.100 --> 159:08.300] who said that the pastor or somebody in the congregation was an ICE member. So they popped up in the church and they interrupted the service and they started

— [159:08.300 --> 159:16.620] calling the person named that got killed in Minneapolis and everything like that. So that's what happened. So you can

— [159:16.800 --> 159:24.940] have a criticism of ICE or of Don Lemon or of either political side. You can say, hey, the Christian church is being attacked, Christianity is being attacked in ways that no

— [159:24.940 --> 159:32.980] 1 else is. We can agree, disagree, whatever. I don't have a nickel in that quarter. I don't have a thought on that particular thing. You do, but that's fine. I

— [159:32.980 --> 159:41.080] mean, I do, but I haven't thought about it enough to flesh out my opinion on it. Because to me, no matter who's right or who's wrong, you can't

— [159:41.080 --> 159:49.120] throw homophobic slurs against people. And watching Nikki do that, it feels

— [159:49.120 --> 159:57.860] like an unraveling again that I'm worried about. And I'm curious to know how, again, so many of the Barb's Nation who

— [159:57.940 --> 160:05.980] identify as LGBTQ are able to hold steady when you hear stuff like that. When she was going anti-trans, people say, oh, you know, there

— [160:05.980 --> 160:14.080] are a lot of queer people who don't care about trans folk or who have issue with trans folk. But now she's calling them a cocksucker for no reason. And then she kind of doubled down on it

— [160:15.060 --> 160:23.220] and responded to it by saying, I purposely wrote it that way because I knew that would be the only way to get the cocksuckers to post about it. They

— [160:23.220 --> 160:31.360] would have all collectively ignored the despicable behavior displayed by Lemonhead. I'm glad they're angry. They're about to get angrier. And then the Chucky doll with the middle finger

— [160:31.360 --> 160:39.540] up. Again, to me, that's not a good enough response. You're Nicki Minaj, you can put a spotlight on any issue you want without

— [160:39.540 --> 160:47.560] revering the homophobia. And just to use a comparable example, that would be like somebody saying, a white person taking the same issue and calling Don a nigger. And then

— [160:47.560 --> 160:55.760] saying, well, I had to use the n-word for people to pay attention to what was happening in this church. We'd all say that's not okay. So why would it be okay to do that to Don Lemon? Of course, Don responded in his own way. He called

— [160:55.760 --> 161:03.860] her a pick me, said that she's not, doesn't have a bandwidth for this conversation, said that she might be an illegal citizen, that she's a pick me

— [161:03.860 --> 161:11.980] for Donald Trump in particular. He gave his own response and shout out to Don for responding the way he wanted to. I don't know how he should have responded,

— [161:11.980 --> 161:20.100] I don't have a thought on that, but the whole conversation is disgusting to me And I don't wanna keep giving this light, but I also feel like ignoring it with someone who is that big of a platform is

— [161:20.100 --> 161:28.540] also irresponsible. So I'm conflicted about how we even talk about this. I mean, well, if you're asking me,

— [161:28.540 --> 161:37.320] I'm not. Like talking about it as much as it will come up makes me feel like I'm complicit in some way. And

— [161:37.780 --> 161:45.860] I said I'm not talking no more about none of this Nicky shit. I ain't, that's me. That's me. But I do get your

— [161:45.860 --> 161:54.320] point about how even that could be dangerous. That's the problem. But I don't want to magnify that. Whatever the audience is that that has, I

— [161:54.320 --> 162:02.380] don't want to plus it by even 1. And see, my thing on it, you said something. You said, she worded it this way because this will make

— [162:02.380 --> 162:10.840] people respond. Mm-hmm. See, when I hear that, it's almost like addressing it or covering it, playing in, I'm giving you what you want.

— [162:10.860 --> 162:19.320] Yeah. So that's what, just me, when I, it's like if I could see you trying to get the response out of somebody or whatever I

— [162:19.320 --> 162:27.340] don't want to I don't want to do that. Y'all convinced me of that with Kanye and that's why I stopped commenting on Kanye. Y'all convinced me that that was not the right way to engage him because but

— [162:27.340 --> 162:35.540] to me Kanye at some point was yelling from the cheap seats he was yelling from the margins and it seemed different. Nikki is still very much, I mean she's a turn- It didn't start that way with Tom.

— [162:35.540 --> 162:43.780] Yeah, exactly. It took a while to get there though. That's true. And so I don't know if that means we should get to this faster or we should ignore it sooner. I don't know the answer, because I don't have the right answer

— [162:43.780 --> 162:51.900] here, but I feel really, and maybe because I know Don as well, I care more, But I just genuinely feel weird to watch someone so talented, so

— [162:51.900 --> 162:59.920] powerful, so popular, punch down like this. You know, it feels very, I don't know. I feel like I need

— [162:59.920 --> 163:08.000] to do something. Yeah, but my thing is, once I've, like, I've addressed this when it, the first time it came up. And once I do, like, my position has been made clear.

— [163:08.000 --> 163:16.080] Yeah. Like even that I've heard you say that before so it's like okay every time somebody does something like not somebody but Nikki Like are we gonna come

— [163:16.080 --> 163:24.380] back to say, hey, this is what's happening with her, this is what it feels like, and this is how I feel on the matter. Like, you know how I feel, I've made it clear and

— [163:24.460 --> 163:32.580] how I'm done over there. I think y'all have convinced me again. So this, unless something unusual happens, the next commentary I make about Nicki Minaj is gonna be about music.

— [163:33.060 --> 163:41.080] That's where I'm at. That's fair. And I'm not sure I'm gonna do that. We gotta do that. Shit. I ain't sure. I

— [163:41.080 --> 163:49.080] ain't sure about that. Really? I'm just not sure. I'm gonna sleep on it, but I'm not certain. All new music don't just guarantee

— [163:49.140 --> 163:57.380] you come up here and just get to kicking it about some music. Like, I don't, I just don't know. She 1 of the biggest rappers in the world. Some people just can't ignore that. Awesome.

— [163:58.160 --> 164:06.300] Awesome. We ain't talking about the last 3 Kanye projects. Yeah, word. Happy for her, Congratulations to her. She's earned it as well-deserved. That

— [164:06.300 --> 164:14.760] don't mean that you have to talk about anything. That's 1 of my favorite artists ever. Yeah, that's all I'm saying. What else? What else? What else? What else?

— [164:14.760 --> 164:22.780] What else? What else? Anything else? We did it? We did it, we did it, we did it, we did it. We did it. I think we did it. I think we did it. I think we did too,

— [164:22.780 --> 164:31.080] man. I enjoyed today. Today was great. Good vibes. Never thought we'd break down the lyrics to YMCA.

— [164:31.480 --> 164:39.700] Never thought you'd fuck me up. Fuck was on this nigga mind this weekend. Fucking thought about the YMCA. No,

— [164:39.700 --> 164:48.220] you know why? That shit came on when I was eating breakfast or some shit somewhere. And I always thought they were saying yummy.

— [164:49.660 --> 164:57.700] Yummy? What? I thought they was yummy. Come and get you a treat. I said yummy. Like I never paid

— [164:57.700 --> 165:05.900] too much attention. That makes it worse. I was just gonna say that's not better. But that's why I thought the rumor was always there. Oh. Because

— [165:05.900 --> 165:13.900] of yummy. Because yummy, because they were. Got it, got it, got it. But then she was like, no, that's saying young man. I'm like, oh, well then why is the

— [165:13.900 --> 165:22.080] rumor there? Right, like this should be obvious. If they are directly saying, hey, young man, come here and get fucked. No.

— [165:22.120 --> 165:30.260] All right, come on. Let's move on. Let's move on. All right. Young man, come here. Sorry, I don't know what you are and why. That's exactly what they were saying. That's exactly what

— [165:30.260 --> 165:38.940] we were saying. Passionately, too. That niggas is sick. He was singing that shit from the bottom of his heart. That niggas is sick. It's like a real

— [165:38.940 --> 165:47.300] song. It might have been another organ. The bottom of his bottom. Listen man, really good episode today. Hope you all enjoyed it. Hope
