Queen Carvania stood haloed by the morning sun. An army hung on her every word. My champions! I! Have sold my chariot on Carvana! T'was a lovely SUV, an inexplicably queenly offer. They're even coming to the castle to collect it! Tonight, we feast! An offer you can feast on. Sell your car today on Carvana. Pick up fees may apply. Yep, Charlemagne the guy. Andrew Shaw! We are the brilliant idiots. Hung out with my family, bro. In New York City? No, out in Hamptons. Out in the Hamptons? And it was just lovely. And like. I'm experiencing a weird. It's not even weird. I don't even know why I think it's weird to even say it. But I, like. I. There's these amazing events that are happening that I recognize are amazing cultural events. And when my friends are at them and texting me, like, I am excited for them. But I don't feel the FOMO of it because I'm where I want to be. Welcome to fatherhood, my boy. Yeah, yeah. Welcome to fatherhood. I'm with you, 100%. But I also think it's connected with the fact that, like, I got to go away for 10 days to shoot this movie. I'm not going to see them. I got to come into the city for a few days and do pods and stuff. So I already know my time is more limited with them than most. So I'm like, to leave them to go see a World Cup match or a concert, I got to love that thing. I love it. By the way, that's where you're supposed to be. I feel very grateful that I'm experiencing this. That's right. It's a beautiful thing. I feel. I mean, I'm FaceTiming my daughter. And she's in the car. She's like, will you come home, Dad? Damn. Damn. Damn. Damn. That shit will make you shut the whole movie down. The whole thing. You know what I'm saying? Like, fuck all that shit, yo. I'll fly him out tomorrow. Come out here tomorrow. I need y'all out here tomorrow, bro. I know. Nah. They came with me the first time because it was a couple weeks. And now it's like, do they just come all the time? I don't fucking know. My kids don't like me to go nowhere. That's beautiful. Every time before I leave, they're like, why are you going? What you got to go in the city for? Like, somebody got to pay for this shit. Yeah. That's the balance. Yeah. And then they find out you made $200 million. They're like, why? You can pay for it. I don't know what you're talking about. They're like, you can pay for it already. But that's why. That's why retirement is not an age. It's an income. That is true. And you should not let anything consume your life so much that you just feel like you have to keep doing it, keep doing it, keep doing it, just because that's what you're used to doing. Amen. You should be able to get to a certain point that if you feel comfortable and financially you know that you can. And mind your business and sit back. Mind your business, sit back, and I'd much rather be a family man all day long. Yeah. Or you choose to do the things that you want. That's it. I've been there. I promise you. I've been there for at least close to a decade now. Probably, probably. No, I say about from 2019 to now. Yeah. No, no, no. I'm lying. After COVID. After COVID, I'm like, I'm not doing nothing I don't want to do. Yeah. Because I don't have to. Like, I'm not money hungry like that. Because, you know, we make a lot of money just doing extracurricular shit. Like, you can be like, yo, go host this here, or go show up here, or go up here on this show. It's like, nah, I'm cool. Yeah. You're like, nah, I'm cool. I don't want to host a game show. I don't. Yeah. Bro, I do. I get it. I mean, yeah. It is crazy when you get thrown opportunities. But also, that is what you're. I don't know. That is what you're supposed to do. Sometimes I see people who are like almost professional celebrities. Like, they're at the opening of everything. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And as I experience it, and I'm early with my family, don't get me wrong. Like, I imagine when your kids start getting into, like, their late teens, they don't even want to hang out with you. They got birthdays with their friends and things that they're doing. They're going to camp, and they're going on a trip or whatever. Maybe you have a little bit more free time to go to these different things. But every single person that's had kids that I've spoken to has told me about these young stages. That's right. And every one of them. Goes by like that. Says that, and they're like, oh, what I would do to be back in that stage. It goes by like that. And they're not sleeping, and you don't get to sleep, and you're exhausted the whole time. I get it. But that shit resonates with me every single time an older person sees me with my young kid. They have the exact same. Oh, it goes by fast. What I would do to have them at that age again. And it's wild, because I got both dynamics at the house, right? I got, like, the whole dynamic. I got 18, 10, 7, 4. That's right. I got leaving the house, and then I got the youngest is 4 years old. Yeah. And you're looking at the 4-year-old, and you remember when the 18-year-old used to be that. Yeah. But now you're trying to figure out, why does the 4-year-old sound like the 18-year-old? Yeah. What the hell is going on in the world if these kids are so goddamn advanced? Yeah. Like, and the 4-year-old and the 18-year-old are, like, super close. Yeah. It's the wildest shit in the world, yo, to see that. Because when I tell you it goes by like that, it goes by like that. And I get caught up in these Instagram scrolls. Like, I hit one emotional video, and then if you keep on scrolling, it, like, suggests. You know what I'm talking about? Oh, man. And it's all parenting shit. I was watching some, like, clip from a Korean zombie movie, and the dad was trying to save his wife and daughter, and then got bit, and he leaves the train and locks them in the train, and the daughter is crying. Oh, that's what that was? You seen that one? I seen that shit. I don't know what the fuck was going on. Son, I'm crying. So he's outside the train, and as he's turning into a zombie, his life. I'll get emotional talking about it. You know, it's like, he's dying. Like, the zombie, whatever, but, like, lives. But, like, he's dying, and the last moments he has. Right? I saw that shit. I didn't know what it was. He's seeing his daughter for the first time, having his daughter's little hand grab his, and as he's turning into the zombie, it's so beautifully done, he's smiling. Like, he's at peace with his life. And, uh. I didn't know what that was, because I was going to send that to Chris, because I always find, like, Asian videos that send to Chris that are. I do all the time, but I didn't. I couldn't tell what the fuck was going on. Oh, man. I got, like. Yeah, they just. You get one after another, like. I saw one. Not like that, but it was. A woman, like, this stalker person was, like, trying to get the child, and instead, the mom took her life for the child, but the mom comes back, and you just. And, like, it was a horror movie where you had to hold up a phone, and then you see ghosts or something like that. Yeah. So, the dad. Pokemon? No. Remember how the Pokemon shit used to be, where you had to hold up the phone, and you see Pokemons all throughout the room? Oh, the Pokemon Go. I guess, but, I mean, that's how the movie was, and, like, the dad. The dad sees his son at night, like, twirling around, and nothing's holding him up, and then he holds the camera. So, a gay ghost? What? Is the ghost. It was a gay ghost? No. Listen to what I'm saying. He came to get emotional. I got it. Well, don't try to get emotional, man. This guy is a roadblock. He's a speed bump. Every time you're about to get into a crying situation, he's gonna be there, ba-boom, and fuck your whole shit up. Well, he's like, the ghost was twirling. Don't even try to do it. Let me finish what I have to say. Can I be honest with you? I got no fucking clue what you're saying right now. Zero clue! Basically, in the movie, they had to hold up a phone to see the ghost, right? Yeah. So, the ghost was trying to take the child. The mom took her life instead, like, because the ghost, I guess, was lonelier. It was some dumb shit. But, so then, the dad, one night, sees. The mom's gone already, right? So, one night, the dad sees his son just twirling around, nothing's holding him, and then he puts the phone up, and he sees his. It was the mom. It was the mom, like, playing with the kid. Playing with him, yeah. Oh, shit. Damn. So, the mom was dead. Yes. Yeah. And then that was her playing with the kid. God damn. You had to lead with that, Taylor. She did. She did? She did. It's all good. I know. I know you stopped paying attention to me. I need to stop paying attention. I just gotta stop paying attention to me. You can see when he glazes over. I do. Bro, you were actually one of the best. Can I give you a compliment? You were one of the best at making direct eye contact with somebody. And not hearing a word. Not listening to a single thing they're saying, bro. He did it. He did it all the time. Not a single. And he'll even do facial expressions. He'll be like this. Like, I can see him stop paying attention. And he'll be like, eh? Oh, wow. And you can see his hand reaching for his phone. Like, the fact that he doesn't have a phone in his hand is burning him. It's like, what the fuck is this person saying right now? Yeah, because you never listen. I'm listening. I'm listening. You buried the lead. I didn't hear you say the mom was dead. I heard you say that the ghost was gay. I never said nothing about gay. Somebody's son was gay. And was twirling around the room. And he could only see his dick through his phone. I literally was just having this conversation about how cancers literally do this. Like, you have an issue. Yo, what do we do but be great? No, y'all got issues. Your future husband is a cancer. I know. And I tell him the same thing. Shout out to Big P. Oh, I got scared for a second. I thought you were getting broken up with. Nah, Big P is a cancer, man. And your son's a cancer too, right? That's right. My mom's a cancer. I cannot escape him. Big P, Little P, Mama G, all cancers, baby. Let's go. cancers in your life? She needs that. No, no, no. Y'all need me because y'all need balance. No, y'all need balance. Y'all are. It takes one to know one. No, no, no. Taylor really has no empathy, okay? You don't have any empathy. What do you mean? Come on. We don't have any empathy. I seen Taylor walk up to one of Diddy's potential victims. Oh my God, get over it. When Breakfast Club used to be on remote television, one of Diddy's potential victims. A man. Wasn't anybody a potential victim of Diddy? Well, I'm just saying. A potential victim of Diddy, okay, who was a man, was just minding his business. You know, clearly on his Instagram, he was having a good night out with Sean Combs, having a ball. And this girl right here walks in the room, walks up to him and goes, so, how did it taste? Homie goes, how did what taste? And she goes, how did it taste? He goes, what? What do you mean, how did it taste? What are you talking about? Taylor goes, Diddy's dick. He didn't deny it, though. That's crazy. Crazy. He never denied it. When there's something that happened to him. Nah. We don't know. Imagine action. That's sexual assault. That's what I'm saying, Taylor. First of all. That's sexual harassment. Hold on, time out, time out. Imagine me doing that to a woman. Time out, time out. Let's be very clear. Unbelievably entertaining. Turns out, turns out it's going to make you worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Keep it up, Taylor. Let's be very clear. The person that we're talking about, he's still supportive. Yo, this guy's crazy. Imagine me saying wild shit to people. Imagine me showing up in front of God, saying in front of people, saying wild shit. Imagine me saying that specifically. To a man? That's what I'm saying. I know, but that was just crazy. That's what we do. I had to say, Taylor, come on, let's leave it. Taylor, come on, Taylor. He also, I sent you a really nice message on your birthday. Don't act like I'm not empathetic. You're ridiculous. You're ridiculous. You sent me a message on my birthday? You only sent that because you used to be surrounded by cancers. What? That's all. So now that you're surrounded by cancers, you know what we need. That's all. She would have never sent that before. That's all. That's all that is. She's used to being around cancers now. She know that we need to hear these things. But that's a good thing. That's a good thing, though. That is good. It's good they're giving you empathy. Round of applause to the cancers in your life. First of all, it's not the cancers didn't give me that. It's been me. Yes, it is. I've known you for a long time, y'all. Yeah. I've known you when you was a thug. I'm not a thug no more? No, you're not a thug no more. You're a mommy. Yeah. Okay? Big Bob and Tina. Because my baby's going to be one this summer. Oh, legend. God bless. God bless. I mean, isn't it crazy? That makes me so sad. No. I'm big. Motherhood hasn't changed Taylor, though, because Taylor was high off shrooms at the concert. I was like, oh, no. She picked the craziest night to be high off shrooms. Did you really have a panic attack? I thought that it was about to be a setup. Like, I was just looking at all the people in the stadium, and I was like, if people start rioting, like, I need to get home to my son. Like, I was getting very, very, like, anxious. You know what's so crazy? I was so. On a high from the weekend, and it was such a weekend filled with joy that I never thought that. Never thought what? I never thought about it being a riot or anything like that. You said that you were there. I was like, okay, if Charlamagne's not freaking out, then I'm. Like, what? For real? Literally, on Sunday, because I don't know how. Let me just tell you something. Charlamagne almost started a crazy rumor. What? What you want? What you want? Charlamagne, without even knowing, he almost started a crazy rumor. Wow. Okay? Because everybody that saw me Sunday. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't bear the lead. Don't bear the lead. Okay. He almost started crazy without even realizing it, right? It's hours. Dove is at the concert, too. It's hours where the shit hasn't started. People start texting me because they think I'm there, and they're like, yo, when is it going to start? Are you hearing anything? Dove texts me. He goes, yo, Charlamagne said Dame Dash called in a bomb threat. Wait, you? Wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, wait for it, right? I go, oh, shit. My boy, Eagle Witt, comedian, hilarious, texts me. He goes, yo, you know what's going on here? What the hell is happening? And I almost texted him, and then I go, you know what? Let me hit Charla to see what's up. I hit Charla. I go, yo, what the hell is causing this? Is there a problem? They can shut it down. He goes, he says verbatim, nah, Dame Dash called in a bomb threat. I said, I heard it. I guess it's real, right? And then I literally type it in to the text to Eagle. I type it in. Let me tell you something. Once it goes to Eagle, the whole world thinks Dame Dash called in a bomb threat, okay? Once it goes out there, I'm telling you, because he's going to text everybody else who's there, et cetera. I do one callback. Oh, man. I do one callback to Charla. I send one more text back to Charla, which we will not say on this pod, which we will not say. You remember? Is that back to you? I don't remember. Remember when I said who was opening? Oh, my gosh. Hold on. Let me look. Let me look. Let me look. Let me look. Let me look. Let me look. You guys are crazy, bro. I heard more than one person say that. So I do one. So I send one funny text back to him. Send one funny text back to him. Oh, my God. He laughed. He laughed. It was funny. And then I go, oh, my God. So, nah, but seriously, did Dame call it a bomb threat? And then Charla just laughs at what I said, which I interpret as not real. I don't send it out to Eagle and everybody else that's messaging me. Yeah. I first told that joke when we was online, right? Online? Oh, going in. Going in. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right? So everybody's laughing. After a while, after I said it to a couple more people. Yeah. People. People were believing me. Oh, so you. That's how crazy. Why are you acting so surprised? That's how crazy people think he is. Why are you acting? That they think he would really do that shit. And I'm like, bro, I'm joking. And they was like, nah, I can see him doing some shit. I'm like, oh, my God. Which made me not even want to say it no more. But then you did say it immediately to as many people that asked you. Exactly. I couldn't help it. It took me back to when I was like 20-something years old and before the internet and before social media, growing up in a small town, and you would say a rumor about somebody that was hilarious, but it sounded true. Yeah. And everybody would run with it. Yeah. Oh, my God. I heard a lot of good ones. First of all, it's still happening now. And you know it's good when it comes back to you. So you be somewhere and you be like, yo, did you hear that such and such? This happened to someone. I'm like, no, for real? He's like, who told you that shit? And look how happy he gets. Like, oh, my gosh. Nice. Listen, this guy's crazy. He really is. He really is. This guy's really crazy. We're taping this on a Wednesday. Yeah. We went to a con. The last concert we went to was on Monday. Okay. Yeah. All right. Technically. Yeah. There's nothing like real life events. Yep. Yes. And I know that, you know, everybody says real life events are coming back. I'm here to tell y'all that real life events never went anywhere. No. I just think that people now are appreciating those real life events and that real can connection more than ever because the dopamine hit that I felt all weekend. I'm still on a high from the weekend. Mind you, I had no plans to go all weekend. So you went Friday. Friday was the night. Friday I had a plan to go on. I'm like, yo, we got a suite for Friday night. We'll be in the suite. Got my folks in the suite. You know, we're going to have a good time. I wanted to see Reasonable Doubt. I'm like, yo, Reasonable Doubt, that's Hov's first album. That's the album that laid the foundation for everything. I just knew he was going to pour his all. I just knew he was going to pour his all into that show, right? I couldn't wait to see it. But the high I got, Friday night. But it wasn't just Reasonable Doubt. He played other stuff, too. He did it the right way. Because one thing that he realized is that, damn, she did that shit like we in fucking jail. Like, she did, like, who, that was crazy. What the fuck was that just now? But I went on Friday. I went on Friday because I wanted to hear Reasonable Doubt. But the way Jay did his set, he knew that Reasonable Doubt was for the core fans. He's fully aware Reasonable Doubt is an album that sold 40-something thousand the first week. He's fully aware that Reasonable Doubt was for the hip-hop fans. Because it's not like that crowd was singing every word to those songs. But the show was so well put together. The show was so cinematic that it was like watching a movie. It was like watching a story. I liken it to, this is like when the bad guy actually wins at the end of the movie, doesn't get caught up, doesn't get locked up, doesn't die, and then lives long enough to even change his life. But he's just showing you his origin story. And the shit was just exciting to watch. But in between those Reasonable Doubt songs, he would do something that was a little bit more palatable to the audience. to the mainstream audience. Or just something people knew. So it just kept you engaged the whole fucking time. But I had such a high from Friday night down. I was like, damn, I'm good. I'm good. I'm not, you know, somebody just asked me, are you coming tomorrow? I'm like, no, I'm not coming tomorrow. No, you're coming tomorrow. You're going to be here tomorrow. Who said that? You work for us. You will be here. Right? Okay. That's why my direct supervisor at Roc Nation said you have to be there. That's where he said you have to be there. Company outing. You have to be here tomorrow. And I wanted to be there for Saturday anyway because it was the Blueprint. See, I like when artists do specific albums. I like when they say, hey, we're going to do one night of this album. I went to go see Jill Scott at the Hollywood Bowl. Oh, I didn't realize it was like that. I thought the whole weekend. No. So the first night was Reasonable Doubt. Second night was Blueprint. Blueprint. Third night was Compilation of Heaven. Third night was Extra Interest. It was just a little bit of everything. So I was like, you know what? I do want to go see the Blueprint because I love Reasonable Doubt, but I actually like Blueprint better. And it just makes, it's like Reasonable Doubt is his first album, the one that laid the foundation, but Blueprint is arguably his best album, even though now I love 444. But I'm like, yo, all right, I'm going to go see the Blueprint. That night was amazing too. But the Blueprint night was just all about the music. But I do have one critique of the Blueprint night. The Reasonable Doubt night, we know the story of Reasonable Doubt. Reasonable Doubt. After seeing it Friday, do you feel like you know the story of Reasonable Doubt? Yeah. We still don't know the story of the Blueprint. Why not? Because the backdrop of the Blueprint, the thing that overshadows the Blueprint is 9-11. Because it dropped on September 11th, 2001. So when Hov starts the show, which by the way, I don't even know if, I'm sure people caught it, but the show started on Saturday at exactly 9-11. By the time he got, by the time he was doing the World Trade Freestyle, he's like, I dropped the same days as the World Trade. It was 9-11. So the whole backdrop of the Blueprint is 9-11. And Hov even said on stage about how this album brought a lot of healing to people and it was kind of like an escape. But we know that's not why he made that album. Of course, yeah. So when somebody gets five mics in the source at the time when mics actually meant something, and at the time when you hear this album, you was like, yo, this is probably Hov's best work. And we still look at it as this might be Hov's best work. I want to know what the story was. Especially when they said it took them a. They said a week or two to record the fucking Blueprint? Really? And you got songs on there like Takeover, right? So think about what his mindset was. Did he play that? Nah. He played the instrumental, but he didn't do the song. But you got songs on there like Takeover. You got songs on there like Ain't No Love in the Heart of the City, where he's addressing a bunch of critics. You got songs like Renegade, where he's addressing a bunch of critics. Like what was going on in his mind during that time that he said, I'm going to record arguably my best body of work. You don't know what's on that album. Like Hov, Song Cry is on that album, Never Changed is on that. He talking filthy. The rule is back. He talking filthy on Blueprint. I want to know what his mindset was. What's the story behind that actual album? I thought I was going to get that Saturday. I didn't necessarily get that. I got the overarching theme is always 9/11, but we know that's not what that album was about. But went to that, and I'm like, all right, boom, I'm on a high. Yeah. It's like, no, you're coming back on Sunday. You're coming back on Sunday, because this is history, okay, and you don't know if this is ever going to happen again. Like, you know what, you're right. I'm going to be there. So I come back Sunday, and I want to see how you stick to Landon. And everybody's saying Sunday was the best show. Not to me, but people are saying Sunday was the best show. You thought Sunday was the best show? Yeah. Why? Because it just, it had everything, and all the people he brought out, it was just like, there were a couple of verses on Reasonable Doubt that I didn't remember. Sunday, I knew every song word for word. Everything, like, it was just phenomenal. Yeah, for me, if I had to rank the shows, I got two different perspectives, right? I rank the show and my experience, and I think that's what we do when we go to concerts. You rank the actual production, but then you rank your experience, and this is different because I never thought I'd be going to a concert. I never thought I'd be going to a concert three nights in a row. I've never done this in my life. At 48, I'm not built for this shit. I'm letting you know that. I love your post. My lower back has been hurting all motherfucking week. From wearing the Timbs? That was funny. I don't know why I wore them again today. I'm just bugging the fuck out, right? That was funny. I'm just bugging the fuck out. Like, I'm not built for this. I couldn't imagine sitting on that floor three days in a row in Timberland, especially on Sunday. I had to do this Sunday. I don't know if I wore Timbs. I did wear Timbs Sunday. But, what the fuck was I talking about? Oh. The difference between the show and your experience. Production. For me, if I had to rank it production-wise, it goes one, two, three. To me. One. The best production was one. Reasonable Doubt was the best show production-wise to me. Two was Blueprint. Three was the Extra Innings Night. But, if I had to rank it by experience, one is Reasonable Doubt. Two is Extra Innings. Three is the Blueprint. Because, like I said, I was in a sweet Friday and Saturday, which I was happy to be because I could act. I could actually watch the production. Just sitting back, observing, watching the production. But, I wanted to be on the floor Sunday night because I wanted to feel that energy from the people. That's a completely different experience when you're on that floor with the people. Did you feel safe there? You don't like crowds? That was the thing. I didn't feel like everybody's there for. That's a great question, Andrew. Everybody's there for the same thing. Yeah. So, it's like the same energy. Everybody, for one night. Not only is on the same type of energy. It's like going to a football game. Is it possible? And all of y'all rooting for the same team. That, like, the tickets were too expensive for you to feel concerned? Okay. Think about it like this. You're right. But, think about the people. Think about the people. Not really, though. Think about the people who bum-rushed into the show. No, I know. I'm just. And, that's why what they did on Sunday made all the sense in the world. I know people were afraid of the delay. Well, they were mad about the delay. People were frightened, though, in there. Yeah, but they were. You wouldn't even notice. They were right next to me. We had to stop it. That shit was all up. We'll get better seats next time. Shut up. But, if you get. If you get a delay, there was. Has she been in the bleachers, though? No. I mean, I was just one row from the ground. Okay. Taylor mad at me because I didn't want her in the suite with me. Why not? Because she don't know nothing about Jay-Z. But, yeah, I'm not empathetic. Look at him. She texted me. But, I was honest. She texted me and was like, y'all want to come to the Jay-Z show? And, I rolled my eyes. I said, do you even like Jay-Z? I said, I'm not a fan like you. But, she. But, I. I might respect him. No, that's not what she said. She said the hype got her. I never. She said all the marketing. Read the message. She said that. Read the message. I never said that. I never said that. And, all the photos around it got her wanting to go. That was her exact word. Yeah, but isn't that a good thing? Why are you getting mad at me about that? Nah. It's not a good thing. Nah, you need to be surrounded by real energy. It's different. It's different. We weren't all surrounded by just that. So, let's be very clear about that. It's like watching. It's like. It's like watching sports with women that don't know sports. Yeah. That's not true, though. And, you're watching basketball. Because, I knew his songs. And, I didn't even know they. And, they asked me, they're like, yo, the guy goes to the. You go to the free throw line. It's like, yo, is that a field goal? Yeah. Yeah. Is that a. That's a different sport. So, you just wanted to rap with everybody. Yes. Yeah, that's exactly. That's reasonable. What the fuck I wanted to. What's the point of going to a concert? I wanted to look around and be like, while I'm watching every nigga, watching me close plan. My brothers bought it for the. They want a toast, man. Yes. Yes. Yes. But, you had enough people to do that. I keep my head above them where they supposed to be. Yes. But, you had enough people to do that, though. Man, but, Taylor, you don't understand. Because, you weren't there. Like, day three, I'm surrounded by strangers, and by the end of the night, I'm best friends with three people, because we rapping every single song, dapping each other up, going crazy. Our girls are just like, a little bit bored on their phones and shit like that. No, it's not gay. See what I'm saying? Any male joy. Come on. You see how male joy can be the gay? Male joy is gay. Male joy is gay. We have to do that. They don't want us to be happy. That's why gay means happy right there. Whoever made gay, made it because they know it meant happy. Any male joy, they want to call gay. No, you're right. You're 100% right. This is the. And what Alex is saying is so true, because think about this, right? People bum-rushed the doors. People got in that wasn't supposed to. They got to shut everything down. They got to make sure everything's good. They got to make sure there ain't no bombs in there, no guns, whatever, whatever, because that could be a bad situation. They got to find each of those people. But, think about this. Even the people that probably got in that they couldn't find, they wasn't in there for no trouble. They just wanted to hear motherfucking heart of the city, man. I don't know if we know that. They just wanted to hear H to the Izzo. You could hear it from outside. Nah. That's what the Bronx is for. You don't just sit outside in the Bronx. The people that got to enjoy it from outside are Bronx residents. Okay, the rest of y'all better buy a ticket or y'all get robbed. They're not going to be on our fucking sidewalk sitting in our fucking launch ass eating our motherfucking roasted chicken. Were there people outside just listening to you? It was beautiful. It was so many people. I rode through High Bridge twice just to see the energy, yo. People had tents out. Yo, there was Puerto Ricans sitting outside with their bottles of liquor. Well, I guess they were Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, Spanish. I don't know. They would- Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like ice would have a feel in it. But, they were fucking- Puerto Ricans are illegal here. That's right. They're American citizens, yeah. But, they're fucking out there with their liquor. They got their chicken. You know, they got tents. They having a ball. Playing dominoes. Playing dominoes. No, dead ass. Like, that shit was beautiful to see. I have a question. So- So, I don't get any respect for being like, oh wow, I see why so many people really fuck with you. jay-z because i've never again i never not not liked him but i didn't know the history as much tell me what you think you're 35 now yes as a 35 year old young woman and watching jay-z this weekend what did you see i was seeing about oh so so on sunday right i was like there's two ways to look at it like when we were waiting for it to start i was like it's like damn like this is ridiculous but at the same time like wow look at the impact that jay-z has has on so many people the all different generations what superstars will make you wait five hours that's what i'm saying that's not lauren hill that's not beyonce and you're gonna actually stay like nobody moves nobody left that concert what i left at 1 30 we know someone who left who we know someone who left oh yeah yeah yeah he was wild enough and he left like 10 minutes before that that didn't make no really that was crazy imagine four hours and then leaving 10 minutes before it started d-block d-block imagine imagine waiting four or five hours i can't remember how long it was but imagine waiting that long the show starts nobody leave but more importantly nobody was disappointed well i think the opposite thing usually happens from when you go and you start to think this could not happen and then it does there's this immense gratitude because you feel like you almost got something for free even though you pay for your tickets whatever it's the opposite it's not like the entitlement not i mean i once had a show and like the the the electricity went out in the venue in philadelphia helium philadelphia oh wow and instead of canceling the show we literally just used a phone light and we just did the whole show the energy in the room was like oh we thought that this was going to get canceled our plans were going to be done this is going to be awesome i can't imagine what that must have felt when you build your entire last few months thinking about what it's going to be like for this night you're there one hour and it's not happened two hours three hours but you're hearing a little whispers and you're going fuck of course it would be our night of course it'd be our night yeah but that's all to me that's all the reason not to leave like to me like to me the whole movie i mean the whole weekend felt like a movie right when you got a kid that got school the next day it's not in summertime yeah you shouldn't have you shouldn't have laughed yeah you have worked in summertime you had work and made late i was late but i was there all weekend i'm 48 give me some grace okay 48 40 fucking eight exactly you're still arguing on the internet exactly not even a little bit friday saturday monday there's no way i was i'm like you know i got a how this shit plays out so and i thought about leaving like now i gotta see how this shit plays i just gotta see how it goes yeah and for him to for him to come out on sunday monday actually and bring all of those artists give you another show within a show not one person complained about the delay if that was if that was if that was saturday night i think people would complain why they don't got work in the next because that people was already complaining because they felt like the blueprint was too short yeah that's what i was saying i thought people how that concert saturday i didn't go it was the shortest it was definitely the shortest like how long oh i don't even think it was three hours because the nights went on at eight he started at 9 11 the show might have been over by like 11 yeah got it so under two hours i get it you're like okay i'm sure you can look up the time but it probably was under two hours that's my no my friend said it was 11 it was 11 yeah friday he did like three and a half or something like that right or three hours friday was long yeah friday was long friday was friday was friday was the best and honestly seeing friday i uh you went to all three no no i streamed friday i couldn't i didn't have a babysitter so i couldn't go anywhere ticket in my suite this guy this guy i don't know why are you

All right. Are y'all ready for it? Yo, question though. Does that happen at Yankee Stadium a lot? Uh, the people trying to break in? People say that. They don't have too many concerts like that. They have 81 home games a year. Not one home game is delayed four hours. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So this is a. Insecurity is bad when security's not used to something. Yeah, like. You know what I mean? Like, that's not what we do. We're used to old people coming in to watch the games with their kids, grandparents. Yeah, yeah, I get what you're saying. Come on. Baseball game is relaxing. It's just being outside. So there's no real urgency. So look at Eminem, too. Boy, they went crazy when Eminem came out there. Oh, Eminem's the truth, man. Oh, why Em don't tour? Like, Em got a cult-like following of, like, -Everyone on the planet. -Everybody on the planet. But no, seriously, like, especially, there's a generation of white males who grew up on Eminem who would probably love to take their kids to an Eminem show. Like, I wonder why Eminem don't do shit like this. He likes his peace. He will. Do you think it's because his. I'm just asking. Do you think Eminem's music has aged well? I think that you're not trying to age the music. Yeah. You want people to feel what they felt. Yeah. Like, I think you, I think it's almost like you, when you go to something like this, you hope it doesn't age, because you're trying to feel that nostalgia. You're trying to get back to that moment when you were a teenager before a fucking high school basketball game, and you're putting in Eminem's crazy shit. Yeah. And, like, getting into the mood and excited for the game, whatever. Like, you want to relive those emotions you had as a young person. So, I don't want it to age well. Yeah, you want it to be. "Hi, my name is. " And I want to be a kid again for a second. Listen to that shit. He did the right song, though. He did "Renegade," right? He did "Renegade," and then Jay left the stage, and he did "Lose Yourself." Oh, forget it. But that's a generational. All right, you guys. You see how I. That's a generational. You gotta hype. I'm telling you. That's why people's dreams are nightmares. No, dreams and nightmares came second. No, I know, but I mean, the way I get hyped for that. Yeah. They're like, "Why are y'all acting like y'all don't get hyped? This is the shit that I hate." Like, we do, but not the way y'all get it. Yeah. But "Lose Yourself," like, y'all be like. I hate this shit. Y'all be going crazy. It's okay, though. I hate this shit. Y'all acting like you're not excited by it. That is like white people's "Knuck If You Buck." I think "Dreams and Nightmares" is a good comparison. It is! Or "PSA." Nah. "PSA" is different. Yeah, I don't think so either. "PSA" is just a different type of song. It's not the. "Lose Yourself" literally is like. It's like when white people are sitting around like, "Yeah, I'm gonna show mom tonight. I'm gonna show you, mom." No, it's not "show mom tonight." This is what I think non-white people can't imagine about white people. Talk to me. Non-white people don't think white people see themselves as the underdogs ever. So when you see white people getting excited for "Lose Yourself," if you're positioning white people as the overdogs, not the underdogs, you're like, "What is this connection to this?" Most white people think they're the underdogs. So when they're watching "Rocky," or they're watching any comeback moment in a movie, it's no different than y'all, right? Where it's just like, "Oh, we're up against all odds. It's David vs. Goliath, and this is gonna be the moment where everything turns." It's a wrestling match. When Hulk is hulking up and the crowd is getting them back into it. It's not a colored thing. It's literally everybody viewing themselves as having an impossible task in front of them, and this is the thing that's gonna get you excited. You guys also have the same connection to it. What do you mean, colored? It's not a color thing. Oh, color. I thought he said color. I just want to clear that up, because people will be like, "What?" You chose the same color. He just said this beautiful explanation. I can't even talk. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. I know we talk about nostalgia, but goddamn, you know what's so funny? Before Birdman walked in, and you can go back and watch it, you can watch me tell this story from way back in the day. I've told it. When he was in the lobby. He was listening to "Lose Yourself." "Lose Yourself" was playing. I'm looking at him through the glass and "Lose Yourself" was playing. I do not remember that. That's what's going on in us. I'm trying to tell you. I've told this story before. Eminem's "Lose Yourself" was playing. Before "Lose Yourself" ever came out. Before the song ever existed. His palms are sweating. That's every white boy playing in a pick-up game with majority black people. Before that song ever existed. He's like, "I got next." And then it starts. Hold on. That's everything going through their minds. Let me see, man. If you give a white person a task that they could possibly fail at, that's what's going through their minds. Damn. Yes. Oh, that shit. That's where they fucked up with Biden. If they played that shit. The way it comes in, it's like one of them ones, though. Thank you! It's like "Dreams of Nightmares." You can't liken some shit to some shit that came after. It does do it, though. They let this whole piano shit play the other night. They let that shit play. The band was playing that shit. It was like. It's the guitar. The whole arena was like, "Ohhhhhhh!" Was this before "Renegade" or after? No, after. Jay left the stage. No, after. Jay left the stage. Yo, this is a little embarrassing. If you had one opportunity. I got goosebumps right now. It's a little embarrassing, but I got goosebumps right now. My fucking hair's standing on end. Have you seen Eminem one concert? I said it already. "Forget it." How you see them in costume? "Bloody keeps on forgetting." "When he broke down the whole crowd goes so loud." "He opened his mouth but the words won't come out." "He's joking now. Everybody's joking now." "Top of the mountain." "Over." Go, Brad! Brad. Nah, that shit's fire. That shit's fire! Fire! The generational record! Just imagine. Sit back and imagine. Imagine Eminem was black and made this. I mean, it'll be like "Dreams and Nightmares." I mean, it'll be like "Dreams and Nightmares." It's not a race record. Now it's not a race record. Now it's not. I'm gonna go outside. I'm gonna come back in. Nothing will have changed. It's not a race record. What the fuck am I even saying? It depends who made the record. That's what I think every single time I walk into this room. The reason that record went so hard. What are we doing now? What are we fucking doing here? This is really a 30-minute podcast that we just say the same thing over and over again four times so it becomes two hours. That's what happens every single week on this podcast. How nobody has figured this out in the past. You have to say it in an entertaining way. The reason that this record took off the way it did is because Eminem had success. Play the song. Play the song. Play the song. Play the song. You ever came out to a stand-up special with this? Nah, PSA. PSA and Hustler's Ambition. How come you never came out to this? Typecast. Two on the nose. Yeah, two on the nose. Two on the nose. But it's non-racial. Say again? And it's non-racial. To y'all it is. Like, a white boy being really into this song? Yeah. So you guys are like, ah, you guys would really like that song. I wonder what Dr. Umar would do if he was about to come out somewhere and somebody played that song for him. You think he would walk out? Nah, he would love it. He would feel it. You would feel it. You know who killed the night too? Jeezy. Yeah. He killed it. Yeah, that was good. That was good. Jeezy came out and did Scene It All, and then they did Dope Boys Go Crazy. Oh, my God. That's my second big concert of the summer. I'm going to see Jeezy in Vegas, man. You know, Jeezy does a residency in Vegas, and there's black ties, and you got to wear, you know, black. You got to wear a suit. Wife got to wear the black cocktail dress or whatever, and it's a band. That's the next thing I'm going to see. This is a great summer. Unks is outside, baby. Maybe it's just because we're old now, but doesn't everything feel unkified? What do you mean? We're unks. No, I mean culture. That's good. I'm not getting banned. I was going to say that, though. It seems like y'all generation is still conquering over. It's dominating. It's like even the way people are dressing, shit is back to the 90s, which was our generation, or it's baggy clothes. People are wearing the sneakers that are fat at the bottom, like the hokas and shit. It's like they're wearing sneakers that are literally made for people over 40 whose feet hurt. Like even the cool shit feels unkified. Now, it could be just us seeing this because we're unks. So you know how you get a new car, and now you see your car every time you walk down the street before you got the car, you don't notice it ever? So it could be that, but yeah, it just feels like culture is. You do know that the age demographic, the highest spending consumers in America are generally 45 to 54, with 35 to 44 and 55 to 64 close behind. Yeah, but you know the reason for that. Because those are 45 to 54 is the peak earning years. Yeah, disposable income. They got disposable income. They often support children in our college expenses. You know, and we spend more on travel, entertainment. Like, that's the demo. So, you know, I understand why people, you know. No, I don't understand. Why do you want to cater to kids if you're not a kid? Because kids will dictate culture. Do they anymore? To their demo, for sure. But the thing about kids, which is so funny, is that there are all these like Gen Z young kids right now that are dressing like we dressed back in the day. And telling us we shouldn't dress like that. And not even that. They're not telling us we shouldn't dress like that. But there is a version where they're like, oh, you're trying to dress young. Or, oh, you're trying to dress cool. And it's like, you're wearing our clothes. Well, that's all I know what to do. Yeah. Yeah. Like, dressing gay is new for us. Yeah. That was an adjustment. It was an adjustment. Word up. You know how hard it was to get into these? You see what I'm saying? But these shits are comfy. But you look comfortable. You look comfortable. You want to try that on, bro? Nah. That's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy. I'm being so honest with you. But it looks comfortable. What it's called? Oh, these are, I don't know. I got a Viva, maybe? Viva? Like, you dead ass are just wearing pajamas. But. Son of a bitch. You're like, you're going to slip in pajamas. Because when you have kids. By the way, that's young shit. Anyway, so you got to be ready to sleep whenever. But that's young shit. That's young shit. I've been watching that in my daughter's high school for the last four years. These kids, they go to school dressed like that. Yeah. Yeah, but this is how we. Especially during the Yeezy era. No, but we did pajamas. That's Adam Sandler. We did pajamas. Adam Sandler always in some shorts and house clothes. Yes, we did. I mean, for not my era. My era was Dope Boy Fresh. Like, we had to put that shit on. Like what? Like, we at least put on clothes. You didn't come to school looking comfortable back then. There was like a period where pajamas was in. I'm 48. Yeah. Oh. You. What the fuck are you talking about? I understand what he's saying. Yeah. Like, girls are wearing. They look like underwear, but they wear them as shorts. Huh? Young people. Mm-hmm. It's like. Like boxers. Linen. Boxers. Boxers. Boxers. They're wearing like boxers and that kind of shit. So maybe we never did that. But like, when we were growing. When I was young, you were a little bit older. I don't know if it was popular down south, but like the Gap sweatsuit, which is like casual as fuck. Like you're wearing a. That was the cool thing to wear. You weren't even doing exercise or nothing. It was just, I'm going to wear a Gap sweatsuit. That was regular. So yeah. All I'm simply saying is. Do whatever we do. That demo. Not only is it the highest spending demo, it's a demo that for whatever reason people aren't afraid of. They're not afraid to embrace anymore. And I think the only reason people aren't afraid to embrace it anymore is because of exactly what you're saying. Nostalgia is back in, but it's not just nostalgia. It's just people want what's actually good. When you have money, you want to make sure what you're spending your money on is going to satisfy you. You know, if you go to a Mary J. Blige concert, you're going to be satisfied. You know, if you go see Eminem, you're going to be satisfied. You know, if you go to see Jay-Z, you're going to be satisfied. You'll spend all your money on Jay-Z merch because all. All of this shit is nostalgia. I think that there's another component. Talk to me. I think that. And we just need something to do sometimes. Okay. So there's two more components. One, older people, they like activities. Yes. Because we don't just go, yo, what are we doing Friday? There ain't no like no plans. Yeah, we can't wing it. Ain't no winging it. Winging it is over, buddy. We got to call babysitters. We got to get the family over. The kids got to get fed. That's right. So it's like if we're going to do a thing, it's got to be an event. That's right. The other thing is we're not really in touch with the new artists. So we don't have new artists to be excited to go see. So we really are relegated to going to watch the people that have impacted us in our lives. Yeah. And that is the artists having these nostalgic moments. Yeah. And when it becomes the super saiyan moment like this was, it's when the next generation is curious about the old heads because those artists have managed to remain relevant. That's right. And the old heads are all like, I need to go experience. Every young artist that was there this weekend, the ones that I saw, and not even, I don't want to just say young, like even the ones like the Wale's and the Fabulouses, but the young ones like the Ruben Vincents and all of them, they were all saying, that's what I want. Yes. They were like, I want that. There was aspiration. Yes. They're like, that's the greatest show I ever seen, but I want that. I want that type of reverence. I want to make that type of music. I want to be beloved in that way. They wanted that. Yeah. And that's what you should, that's what that, that's what the OGs are for, to provide that type of inspiration. That's how I felt. Like, I'm not a rapper, but just looking at the business and infrastructure of something like A Rock Nation. Yo, shout out to Emery Jones. Emery is, you know, Jay's guy. I remember being in the office, watching Emery, throwing the paper plane around and just asking him like, yo, what's that? And he was like, that's the next, that's the next iteration of where we going with the clothing. And to see everybody, literally everybody, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. All his merch. Walking around with paper plane merchandise. Like, it's not, it's not merch in the sense of, oh, I got to get this merch because, you know, that's my favorite artist. And it's not, you know, clothes in the sense of, oh, I'm rocking this because it's fashion. That paper plane means something to people. People wear that paper plane in their everyday life. So watching people walk around for three days with that paper plane on, that's the, you only see that reverence for sports teams. You only see that type of reverence for sports teams. That, that paper plane means something. People got the pins on. People got t-shirts. People got hats. Like, that paper plane means something to somebody. That's big, man. Salute to Emery. There were people hitting me like, yo, can you cop me merch? They were not at the show and they were asking me to cop it. I'm trying to tell you, that shit, that shit means something. So that's the type of shit I look at and be like, that's what, that's, that's what you want to build. Whatever you're building, you want it to be like that. You want people to, you want people to, you want, you want to, you want to be beloved. Who was I talking to? Oh, Michael Rubin, was saying that. We had him on Breakfast Club last week and he was just talking about how he wants fanatics to be beloved. When I was small, we dreamed about getting big. Now that we're a little bit bigger, I think big is bad. I dream about how do you become beloved? Like, how do you make the most beloved brand in the world? And it's funny, you talk about Fanatics Fest. It's like, that's about how do you be beloved? How do you bring all these incredible, you know, athletes, celebrities, artists, and most importantly, 200,000 sports fans together for four days. And that's like, that's about being beloved. It's about, and I was, I had to think about it for a moment because beloved means emotional attachment. And to me, a company like Fanatics would get that anyway because they're sports. I feel like if you're spelling, if you're selling sports gear, you don't think so? No, because your connection is to the teams. It's not to like, for example, the NBA is not beloved. The teams within it, the game of basketball, but like, nobody cares about FIBA, you know, or like FIFA. They care about the individual teams that are in it because they have connectivity to that. So like doing that with a brand like Fanatics would be very powerful. But like, I need, I need to understand like, what is Fanatics? Yeah. People are more like, that's, that's a good point. Cause you, you'll walk in a store and see a jersey, but you'll look to see if it's Michelin ass or if it's fucking, what other brands is out there? I don't fucking. Yeah. Like, you know, like a champion for me, like I heart is a massive company, but it has properties within it that are beloved. loved by people i don't know if there's someone who's like i love all of the things i heart does yeah because they probably don't even know all the shit that i heart does just like nbc it's like i don't love nbc i might love specific show that comes out on nbc so it's very hard to have you know who got the closest hbo yeah hbo had a small enough catalog and enough bangers that people started to be like i love this brand i think they still got it yeah yeah yeah but like when we were watching sunday you had to watch it whatever came on sunday night yeah yeah yeah whatever came on sunday night eight o'clock nine o'clock ten o'clock you gotta watch it on hbo guaranteed banger they still got it i mean they kind of that dragon this no no no what i would say is and this is something maybe there's like a generational riff here and this is only because of technological changes but like there was a time you know where we watched and then whatever the best show on tv the wires at night yeah like you didn't have to leave the game of thrones yeah you didn't have to

apparently i'm sure y'all saw this but apparently this is ai right yeah i didn't think kevin durant would do no shit but look someone said the reason why is because of his hair um his hairline yeah i didn't think kevin durant would do no shit like this scroll up it said what what's it giving kevin durant poses for his new kd19 candy apple in a new photo but i feel like if it was ai kevin durant would have denounced that already kevin durant would have got on social media and been like nah that shit ain't real bro hold on let me look what's the name of this shit kevin durant candy apple in a new photo but i feel like if it was ai kevin durant would have denounced that already candy apples so i made a really funny post about it though what'd they say i'm gonna bring it out i think katie posted yes it is fake yeah it is fake i was like there's no way kevin durant would never do no shit that's why they this is weird kevin durant like that's not even some shit you could get kevin durant to do you know photographers or have you doing some wildest shit you know you're doing a photo shoot yeah and a photographer would be like bite the apple and look into the camera but turn your head to the left but turn your eyes to the right no he can't kevin durant do no shit like this are those sneakers even real i don't know i think the sneakers are probably real yeah let's not make let's not do that to candy apples man y'all there's no way his mouth could even fit around it he's biting the entire apple that's like god damn you know i'm saying yeah there's no way now you can do that now if you open wide enough but that's the whole point that's what would make it gay i don't think he could open wide like that you don't think so i don't think i've got it like that you don't think i've got the jaw to open wide like that i don't think so man shout out a whole apple shout out the candy could be a small apple i guess we don't know how big the apple is that is true don't bite the apple eve i'll tell you this though man that right there is what's wrong with the internet and i do not want to spend the rest of my life looking at shit asking if it's real because guess what i didn't know it was fake till just now just now till taylor said some people are thinking this is ai yeah so i went to go look at it just now the first thing that popped up was a sports illustrated article that said uh what did it say fake nike ad for kevin durant fooled the internet now how many people gonna see that ad how many people gonna see that nobody cares about the truth when the lie is more entertaining kevin durant eating that candy apple is entertaining yeah like if you stare at it too long isn't this a good thing what even if it's fake all this publicity that's the point of an ad forget not if the shoe ain't real not if the shoe is real the shoe was actually real yeah why it's a shoe it's an all red shoe he's coming out with all the rockets colors red i guess they are in the apple are you sure yo yes the shoe is actually real It's just him biting the apple. Who the fuck wearing candy apples? And what do candy apples got to do with Kevin Durant? I mean, everybody kind of does an all red shoe. Ever since Kanye came out with the Red October. But why you got to call them candy apples? Red October sound hard. Candy apples on your feet make the cypher complete? I mean, Jordan had the grapes. Yeah, but grape can be crip. You think grape, you think crip. You think grape ate. But also candy, you think candy painted. Like, oh, Houston, yeah, yeah, yeah, candy red. You right, yeah, yeah, candy apple. I don't know, man. I don't know. What is this? Who is this? So this guy commented before we found out. That's not this guy. That's Ray Ray. Yeah, he's funny. Okay, well, sorry. Sorry, Ray Ray. But I've never, I've never seen him before. But he commented. Why y'all laughing? I haven't. He's doubling down. Yeah, I know. I mean, I've seen Ray Ray. I've seen him several times. Okay, well, this is what he had to say. I think you're on the radio, too. Dropping sneakers? Or you trying to show the world how wide your mouth open paws? No, no. What the fuck is you selling? What it's giving? Somebody's saying it's giving. You're not even selling the shoe. Kev, what the fuck is you got? What do you? Who's on your marketing team? Okay. Guys, first of all, fuck the shoes. Niggas was going to buy the shoes regardless. You didn't have to come up here doing this. That is true. Yo, bro. You is seven foot one, three, whatever the fuck you is. You're tall. Selling shoes. Eating candy apples? Candy apples? This is how he just walks off to it. You got to watch for the agenda sometimes. Even though this is fake. Because the reality of the situation is if this was real, Ray Ray is right. There's no reason to be eating the candy apple. You're doing that because you want to do it. Because the first thing you said was, yo, I don't think his mouth can get wide open like that. Yeah. It's crazy. Shout out to KD, man. After seeing this, I was like, so is it like an athlete thing? Just wants to be like, yo, I don't think his mouth can get wide open like that. Just wants to be like they're trying to experiment with their sexuality because- Taylor, we've already established it's fake. I know, but then I- Because you know I compared it to Tom Brady with his good nut shit. No, no, no, no. It's different with Brady. Taylor tries to throw gay on everybody. Yeah, Brady- No, I'm not. I think it's weird, though. You don't think that's weird a little bit? No, no, because Brady got a drink called good nut. And I know it's coconut water or whatever like that, but it's just this little- It's funny. It's a little gay, too. Not really. Everybody- Yes. It's funny. It's not just for men. So what? We just got to be miserable? Is that it? It's not just- I'm not saying that. Is that the only way we can be not gay? I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I have no problem with gay. I'm just saying that it's weird. I think you got a problem with gay. I don't. I really don't. It's not called good nut for men. It's good nut- But women don't care that much about- I don't think about men when I think about drinking nut. Whoa. That sounds so crazy when you're saying that. When you think about who drinks the most nut in America- Yes. In the world, historically, come on now. But you're not even saying nut. You're not even saying nut. You're saying coconut. So stop. I think it's gay, bro. Nah. Take it out, bro. Take it out. Oh, man. Can women have something? Nah. Like, no. Women, come on, bro. What are we talking about? Historically? I think historically, I don't know if women have the reputation of like, oh, I want that. I think if they want it, it makes them more special. I mean, they're the ones who invented the swallowing. I don't know if they invented it. I'll be honest with you. I think that might have been guys. Nah, bro. Most things that are fun and awesome, guys invent. Is that not true? Nah, bro. Yes. Be honest. Like, most things fun and awesome, guys invent. You know, there's versions of the Bible where it's not an apple. Yeah. It's a nut. It's a what? It's a nut. There's versions of the Bible where it's not an apple. It's a nut. And who eats it? Eve. Exactly. And she was told not to eat the nut. And she just couldn't help herself. What version? But, but, but, but. But she couldn't help herself. What version of the Bible is this? She was told not to do it. Exactly. And she couldn't help herself. Of course. She was different. She wouldn't. No. All the other women were not eating it. No. But she set the tone. So every woman after her just can't resist swallowing that nut. I've got to have it. Even if God tells me no, I've got to put it in my mouth and swallow it. And that's what made her so special. But that's women. No, that's women. That's a special trait. That's women. No, there's two things that Eve did that set the tone for women throughout society. What the fuck? Exactly. This is what y'all wanted to do with the nut? This AI? Listen. This better be AI. There's two things that women did to set the tone for themselves for the rest of their lives. Eve did this. What are the two things Eve did? What am I looking at? You're not listening. I can't by looking at this right here. Do you see this? I don't want to see it. What is that? That looks crazy. Is that real or AI? No, it's real. But what is it? I don't know. Taylor. Taylor. Taylor. You be fucking with Chris. You just be Googling wild Asian shit just to send to Chris. Because that is crazy. It's a facial. There's two things Eve did that set the tone for women for the rest of life. One, she did not listen. Okay? God told her not to do something and she still did it. They just did not listen. Do women listen? No. Okay. Men don't listen. Two. What's that have to do with women? Two. In the original version of the book. In the original version of the Bible. Swallow the night. I tuned out. I don't know what you were talking about. What else we got, Taylor? You were like this. I just want people to know that you should believe me even when I'm lying. Exactly. I don't want any of the listeners to know exactly what I was just lying about. But there will be some Christian website that will clip me and say that I said it in the original version of the Bible. Eve swallowed a nut. And they'll be like, what version of the Bible is this? Charlemagne, the blasphemous God. But, brand new listeners know to trust me even when I'm lying. Believe me even when I'm lying. I think this was fake. Nah, it's got to be. I thought it was fake too. I watched this shit a million times. This was fake. Okay. Comedian viciously booed off stage at Indianapolis Helium Comedy Club. Bottles and objects thrown during performance. Like, play it. I don't even know what he's talking about that made him do this. Yeah. They say he was talking about this. I don't even know what he's talking about. He was talking about some rapper that died. God bless the dead to that brother. He just kept getting this one. Oh, shit. What? That's all I got though. I never. If that was really happening to you, you'd leave the stage. You wouldn't turn around like you were in the Blair Witch Project. Yeah. And post up like that. It looked like he was just giving up cheeks immediately. Like, he just gave up. He was like, it didn't look like that. Like, play the fresh play. You look like, oh, fuck. I'm only going to get out here alive if I give up the cheeks. Cheeks. Watch. Watch. Oh, shit. Watch. He drops the mic. Puts the mic down. And say how he dropped it. Take it. Take it. Take it. But I'm not bending over. What's his name? Comedian Calmer. Calamar. What is it? What's his name? It's right there, Tim. Give him a shout out at least. Comedian. Calamar White. Comedian Calamar White was at the Helium Comedy Club. Somebody tell me. Let's see if this is real. It looks fake. But I want to know if it was real. I've only seen this clip of it. What else we got here? Let's do some asking idiots, man. Okay. Let's do some asking idiots. Underscore MB52 underscore says, if you both got arrested together today, what do you think people would think y'all did? Ooh. That's a good fucking question. What do you think, Schultz? If we both got arrested together today, what do you think people would think y'all did? What do you think people would think y'all did? We both got arrested today. I don't know. I don't think it's anything violent. Yeah, no. Insider trading. Taxes. The fuck would I be doing insider trading for? You got a tip from one of your- I didn't say what you would do. Yeah. It's what they would think that we did. Charlamagne and Andrew Schultz get arrested. It's not like we're robbing a bank. It's not like we're beating someone up. Like, what could it be? Lovers quarrel. Messing disputes amongst each other. But we can't both get arrested for that. Yes, we could. Not if we're fighting each other. We're men. They would arrest both of us. But it's not assault if we're assaulting each other. Huh? If it's a fight, we're both throwing punches. It's not assault. But somebody just saw us and called the police and said two people were fighting. All right, I can see that. They take us to fucking jail. Mug shots. Andrew Schultz, Charlamagne Tha God, got into a fight. They believed something y'all said that was that y'all were playing with and then y'all got arrested. Don't put that out there. Not under this administration. They'd be like, nope, nope, nope. I thought you was an ally. Like, hell no. You never know. Okay. I don't know. I don't know what they would think. I don't know what they would think, but I know they would make some shit up. Yeah. Hey, by the way, fuck with me. we got arrested for just going online, seeing what people said we got arrested for would be more entertaining. Okay? Because these motherfuckers do not care nowadays. Ivea, what is that? Ivea Don said, with half of 2026 past, what movies and albums have stuck with or stood out to you? I don't know if this came out this year, but I just saw Project Hail Mary. Why? Phenomenal. Really? I haven't seen it. Phenomenal. I haven't seen it. I went to go see Supergirl. Oh, yeah. I saw Supergirl yesterday. I don't know. I heard it was not a. What did you think? I thought it was garbage. Really? That bad? Oh, man. Sucks like Kevin Durant with a fucking candy apple. That shit was terrible. Why did you think it was bad? It just wasn't good. I'll tell you this. My daughter, my four-year-old, ten-year-old, and seven-year-old, but they're kids. All of the action and the flying around. My four-year-old was like, that was epic. I didn't even. Couldn't be dad in that moment. I was just like, yeah. What's for my wife? That shit sucked. My wife thought it was alright. It was just everything. The plot. Just when I was getting on the D.C. train, just when I was thinking D.C. had turned a corner, it's like, ugh. The plot, but you know what, though? They set Supergirl up for failure from the beginning. Why? Women should be outraged about how they set up Supergirl. This is how I know women don't even care no more. Superman, right? Pretty good movie. We can say it was a pretty good movie. How did they introduce you to Supergirl? Not her coming in to help Clark defeat some of the bad guys. You know? Not coming in on some super heroic shit where you're like, oh, shit, you see what she just did? Remember when Captain Marvel came through an endgame and fucked up the plane? I mean, fucked up Thanos' ship? Supergirl comes in drunk as shit, don't want to take care of responsibilities, left her fucking dog with Superman. So you're like, why the fuck? Who is this dysfunctional motherfucker? And that's how the Supergirl starts. She's still dysfunctional on some Hancock shit, like don't really feel like she don't really want to be a superhero. Going to planets where they don't have a yellow sun so she can get drunk. Yeah. And then the whole movie kind of revolves around her dog. Like they show you this ill scene in the beginning where there's this young girl who witnesses her family get killed and she wants revenge. So you're thinking that's what's going to motivate Supergirl to really get shit popping. But it's because when the girl comes to try to get somebody to help her and then, you know, her and Supergirl connect at some point one of the bad guys who needs another ship because his ship got destroyed comes to steal Supergirl's ship and shoots fucking the dog with a tranquilizer. You don't even care about your dog. Shoots the dog with a fucking tranquilizer. And in my mind I'm just like, why doesn't Supergirl just take the dog to a fucking planet with a yellow moon? Because when Supergirl's on a yellow moon and she gets poisoned, none of that shit affects her. But instead she goes chasing after the fucking alien. Like the shit is just. The dog has like three days to live and so she has to track down these aliens to get the antidote. So the same guys that shoot with the tranquilizers also carrying the antidote on them. Like the whole plot, it just wasn't enough stakes. And then they kind of jumped around a lot, which I didn't really like. And then you got the backdrop of them trafficking girls. How are all of these guys trafficking girls, but that's like a sea story in the movie. The dog. I gotta go save my dog. There was one point where the other girl, I can't remember her name, the one that had the sword, had to remind Supergirl that the girls were still trapped in the fucking cage. This shit is. This shit's so bad they don't even got a post-credits scene. Really? I don't know what James Gunn was thinking. James Gunn don't use this. But he didn't make it. He didn't? No. That's why. That says me everything I need to fucking know. Yeah, I mean if it's. James Gunn don't miss. That's what I was. I was thoroughly disappointed. He don't miss. That shit. But he's I guess the head of all of DC so maybe he's the one who's like. He's like Kevin Feige now. Yes. He still has a say in everything that happens, but he's not the one. Well, they should've scrapped that shit. The same way they scrapped Batgirl. You know they're supposed to do a Batgirl. They filmed it. They filmed it and everything. I did a movie with that girl. Poor girl, man. They should've scrapped Supergirl. That shit was garbage. Not bad. I wanted to like it, but it wasn't. That shit was not good at all. So which. Supergirl? Not even Superwoman? That's very true. I don't know what movies and albums. No, it's Wonder Woman. Supergirl. And she's young. She is young. I think they gotta stop. I think until women prove. Why are you laughing, bro? I didn't even say it. I didn't say it yet, man. I didn't say it yet. Anytime you start a series, they gotta stop women. It's gonna be funny. No, I'm just. Until women prove they care about comic books, they gotta stop trying to make movies for them. I agree. Women care about like housemaids. They want like a hot housemaid. He's right. No. So why you didn't go see Supergirl? I didn't even know it was out. Can I say one thing? Women love like a girl who cleans shit and then a rich guy. We love a man that cleans shit. Can I just get it out? They love a girl who cleans shit and then a rich guy takes interest in them and then makes her rich. That's like the dream movie for women. No matter what the plot is, it's kinda like that. There we have one. Cinderella. No, we have one with Maiden. Pretty Woman. What was they love? Maiden Manhattan? Maiden Manhattan. The other maid, the housemaid, the handmaid. Everything that works for women is a maid. And that's not even on us. That's on y'all. Y'all wanna be maids. I don't know what it is. No, we don't. But according to. That's crazy. According to the data, if we don't have maid in the title, y'all won't see it. Maybe you gotta combine the two. Maybe the superhero's alter ego should be a maid. A maid. Tied it up. Supermaid would be fire. Supermaid. Wonder Maid. Wonder Maid. Iron Maid. Iron Maid. These are all movies that women would love. Spider Maid. The Incredible Maid. There we go. The Mighty Maid. And we're just watching. Captain Maid. What can the girls do? Black Maid. Tell me a movie. Black Maid. They already made that though. It's called The Help. I didn't wanna say it. But you tell me a movie where the woman is a maid and the movie flops. Things that make you safe. You got a point. It doesn't happen. And if you don't, it sound good. That's a good one. That sound fire. I kinda believe them. Every movie where the woman is a maid, the women love it. There's something like. Sexism talk is over. That's not sexism. Tell me this. Tell me this. How is it sexism if that's the only movie y'all watch? That's not the only movie we watch. Shut up. Name a movie that's not. You're not a maid. We do watch Marvel though. Name a movie where you're not a maid, where you watch it. Oh, there's a few. Just name one. Let's start at one. I'm trying to think of certain movies I've seen. Isn't this crazy? Hold on. Hold on. Y'all wanna call me sexist and you can't name one movie where you're not a maid? Sexist. You're talking about women. I've seen a lot more guy movies. Hey, this is kind of crazy. I don't know. I googled. I asked ChadGBT, give me some box office numbers for movies with maids. Maid in the title. The Housemaid with Sidney Sweeney and Amanda Seyfried came out last year. $305 million. They're already making it too. Go on. Keep going. The Help. $213.1 million. Boom. Maid in Manhattan. How much is it? $154.9 million. Thank you. Another one. Give me another one. That's really all it is. No. Oh, that's just with the. That's all you need. That's with the term maid in the title. Oh, shit. You're right. If you wanna talk about the plot having to do something with a maid. How long? It's every movie That's not true. Sex in the City. They weren't no maids in there. That's not a movie. They do have a movie. It started as a TV show. Don't count. Movies that have maids in the movie. That's true. Mrs. Doubtfire was a maid. Thank you. And that's a maid. Can you shut up? It's true though. And they loved it because it's a maid in it. Women will not support a movie unless there's a woman cleaning up. If a woman is not cleaning up. What about Barbie? What about it? There's no maid in Barbie. Gotta get a maid in Barbie. The president was a woman too, by the way. Gotta be a maid in Barbie. No, there wasn't. Yo, this is kind of crazy. There wasn't. Okay, Parasite. Over $260 million. What does the mom do? Housekeeper and domestic workers are central to the plot. Thank you. Shit, I forgot about that. And that rocks the cradle. Come on. $140 million. Whenever I sell sexist it just so happens to be right. The Nanny Diaries. $48 million. Yo, Spanglish. No, that had to have a maid in it. Housekeeper working for a wealthy family. $55 million. Wow. It says Hollywood doesn't make many films centered on domestic workers, but the ones that connect with audiences often do very well because they tap into universal themes. Class differences, racial and social inequality, family dynamics and identity aspirations. That's Chad Chibichi being kind and polite. Suspense from intimate access to wealthy houses. Household. "Women only support a movie where their woman is a maid in it." That's not true! I just told you Barbie! Alright, alright bro. I'ma tell you something Taylor, there's something to this, it says, "While there have only been a handful, roughly ten mainstream theatrical movies with maids or domestic workers at the center of the story, four have become major box office hits, suggesting the premise itself isn't a commercial obstacle." That's your superhero! Damn! Captain Marvel made one… Can I just say one thing? A superhero movie for us, the ideal superhero movie, right, is a regular person that shouldn't be able to do extraordinary shit ends up having superpowers and they can do extraordinary shit, i.e. fucking Captain America, skinny little twink, and then he gets the superpowers and then he gets to do it. Woman's dream is cleaning shit up and then becomes super rich and doesn't have to clean shit no more. That is it! Captain Marvel was the clean up woman in Indy. Thank you, what happened? She did. Everything was a mess, what happened? Everything was a fucking mess and she came through and blew the fucking shit up and she really did though. So you're talking about that type of clean up? Then that's different. I'm just telling you, yo. Well, yeah, I think that women are smart enough to use metaphors, I think so. That's crazy. That's crazy, Taylor. Again, again, I… Taylor, I didn't want to agree with him, but I mean… You think I want to be right? That was crazy. Shut up! You think I want to be right about this shit? That's crazy, yo. No, it's not. Ain't no maids in Supergirl. And then what about… It's actually a mess. What's that movie with Zendaya? Uh… Dune? Oh, Dune? Is that what it is? Dune, yeah. Didn't that make… She wasn't the star of Dune though. She wasn't? Ain't no woman let in. Ain't no woman to see that shit. That's men. Men go to see those types of movies. I'm just telling you, every time men try to make a male movie for women, if not… Mamma Mia wasn't one. Hunger Games. Mamma Mia definitely would have had a male. Hunger Games. Hello, Hunger Games. She was no maid. There was no… The woman was not a lead in the movie. Before she got chosen. That was her thing. She was a maid. Yeah. Come on. She wasn't cleaning the house. Yes, she was. Yeah. She was taking care of her little sister and cleaning the house. I didn't ask you to clean the house. You were taking care of her little sister. She was cleaning the house. And she was hunting. That's what she was doing. She was cleaning up. She was doing a man's work of hunting. She was doing her duties, bro. Listen. I've never seen Hunger Games. You've never seen any of them? No. That's fine. They're making a new one though. Let's do one more. Ryan_Rolia710 says, "How many back shots can you take for peace on the earth but everyone would know?" I did not mean to put that in there. Alex? I did not mean to put that in there. I asked you a question. I don't understand why… He asked you a question. No. You're asking the room. "How many back shots could you take for peace on this earth but everyone would know?" Man. War. That's crazy. You wouldn't give up your butt for some war? No. For peace? Wait, wait, wait. How many back shots would you take for peace? You can't frame the question like that. How many back shots can you take for peace on the earth but everyone would know? Yeah, but they have to frame it like, "Would you take 100 back shots for peace?" He's asking you. He wants to know how gay you are. So he's asking you, "How many would you take?" So I get to dictate how many people's peace? Yes. Yeah. None. So you don't want peace. No, no. I'm dictating that we don't even need a back shot. No, no, no. There has to be back shots for you to get peace. But how many back shots can you take for peace on the earth but everyone would know? One. One. One. One. Gay. It's one little piece. You want to give us a piece for peace? That's great. I think a piece for peace. So what about you? How many would you take? Yes. Um. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I got to see the dick first. What the hell? See, y'all just answered. That's why I know y'all gay, because y'all just answered the question. Y'all don't even give a fuck what the size. What is the world? What is the matter? It's world peace. What is the matter? No, no, no. I got to see his peace. You're going to let your people suffer? You don't care about black empowerment? You wouldn't want to see his peace for peace? To me? Seeing children around the world die, seeing children starve, it's like. But those same kids will tease you when they get older. Okay? Those same kids will grow up and will not recognize the sacrifice that you made for them. Of course. Those same kids will be like, "Yo, that's the homie who took the. " That's not true. You don't think more kids will probably do it then? What? What do you keep saying, right? Yo, get out of here. Because it will. Yo, stop the episode. Hey. All right. Let's start the next one.
