World War PsyOps

The podcast features a lively, conversational exploration of food culture, particularly pizza, with a focus on Nashville’s Slim and Husky, which is celebrated for its vegan and hot chicken options. The host contrasts this with New York’s pizza traditions, arguing that the plain slice is the true benchmark of authentic, unadorned pizza. A central theme emerges in the discussion of Drew Skate’s viral comedy sketch, which satirizes how conservative women are perceived online. The sketch goes viral not because of political messaging but because it mirrors real cultural dynamics in a humorous, exaggerated way—triggering strong emotional reactions from viewers, even though it lacks direct political claims. This moment exemplifies how comedy can provoke genuine public engagement, highlighting the power of satire to reflect and amplify societal perceptions. The conversation extends to broader topics like authenticity in art, the value of vulnerability in interviews, and the appeal of mystery in celebrity narratives. The host concludes by expressing admiration for deep, thoughtful conversations—such as one between Kendrick Lamar and Debbie Brown—where personal insight and psychological depth are revealed, contrasting with superficial online personas. Ultimately, the episode blends humor, cultural critique, and personal reflection to explore how authenticity, both in food and in personal expression, resonates with audiences.

Brr, brr, brr, brr, brr, brr, brr, brr. - Hello, Kyle Walker. - Hello, good sir. - Back for another week of brilliant, idiot-ness, man. I just actually flew in. I just got back from Nashville. White in Atlanta, okay? - Ooh. - I love Nashville, by the way. - That's great city. - That's a great city. - Great city, great people. - Hope, there is hope in that city. - Some of the best pizza on the planet. Existant Nashville. - You need to, listen, you're great at your hot takes. - Listen to me. - You need to just some of the best pizza on the planet exist in Nashville, too. - You are a brilliantly successful man. You have great takes, you're smart, you're all the things. You're from Monks Corner, South Carolina. I don't need you to fix your face and tell me what fucking good pizza is. - Listen to me. - Some of the best pizza on the planet exist in Nashville, Tennessee. - It got babies on it? - Spot-cutting, no babies on the pizza. Maybe, I don't know. But there's something about the crust. Maybe there's a little baby flesh in the crust. Well, listen, there's something called, there's a spot called Slim and Husky. In Nashville, Tennessee, man. As, I wouldn't know if Jelly Roll never had Slim and Husky. And if not, they need to sponsor some pizza for them. - Nah, skinny now. - No, skinny now. - Jelly skinny. - That's why it's called Slim and Husky. So, both parties get-- - Oh, they're cute. - Deep dish and thin crusts. Is that the idea? - Yeah. - Oh, you had Slim and Husky before? - What the fuck you had? - No, I didn't. - Oh, yeah. You didn't have the iconic, what is it? Princess hot chicken or something like that? - They got the hot chicken pizza that Slim and Husky's in. I'm trying to tell you, I didn't get that though. I like the nothing but a vegan, which is all vegan. So, they got the vegan pepperoni with the vegan sauce. - What about cheese? - Vegan cheese, non-dairy. - That's why it's like, you call me in front of me. - Well, I'm just telling you what I like. - It sounds like-- - No? - I didn't get, that was, they got something else, but I get the vegan. I like it, that's just, that's just slaps. I give vegan, even when I'm in New York, if they got a vegan, that's-- - I apologize. - That's vegan cheese. I give vegan cheese. - I apologize, everybody from New York listen to this right now. I apologize, everybody from Chicago listen to this right now. - What do you mean? - They're all lactose intolerant. - Whoo! - Whoo! - They're so happy that pizza places got vegan cheese off of us. - Oh, yes. - Everybody in Chicago and New York City. - No. - Yes. - That's lactose tolerance city on the planet. - No. - Look at that. Ooh, look at that menu. - No, you know, shout out to Slim and Huskies. I want you all to kill it, you're great. - Slim and Husky hot chicken pizza. What next time you're in Nashville? - I was just there, man, so probably not for a little bit. - Damn, I shoulda had them pull up and give you some. - You shoulda had them pull up, man. - I'm sure it's great, I'm just saying. - What is? - Listening to someone who's not from New York talking about pizzas and saying it. - Oh, it's so good, man. And I-- - Vegan, so are you going to vegan slice out there? - Yes, you're not even supposed to put nothing on pizza. If your plain slice doesn't rock, you don't make good pizza. - That's good, man. - No, I can't. - That's boring, no. - I'm just telling you, it doesn't know. The plain slice has got to be so nice and it's not boring. - Isn't an ox tail slice one of the most New York things ever, though? - So it's like, my brain can't comprehend the things you're saying. I don't know if you're told. - You've never had an ox tail slice from cut to slice. - You have an ox tail before? - Yes, I've had an ox tail. Listen, I have to have an ox tail before you. - I've probably had an ox tail before you. - You're probably right. Would you ever had it on a slice of pizza, though? - No, Charlotte, man. - Have you ever had a cut to slice this New York, baby? You have the slices in Brooklyn. They got one of those. - No, put ox tail on pizza. We don't, you could put pepperoni on pizza. - See that? - So you fight into it. - Don't, don't not. - It might be great, but we don't lead with the pizza, with stuff on it. You lead just with the brand of pizza. - You've done that. - So you've had the basics. - Well, what about when you get that ox tail slice? - That lobster and shrimp Alfredo slice. - What do we do? - What do we do? - What do we do? - This is ridiculous. - You know how many cut to slice this? - Yeah. - You know how I like it? - No, I like it. - I'm sure it's great. Shout out cuts to slices. I'm sure it's great. But even there looking at this like, oh, Charlotte, you got to lead with the plain slice. You got to tell us why that's great, because that's what defines New York. - What's your favorite pizza? - Now, are we going by slice or are we going by pie? - By slice. - Ooh, it's a good point. Because if we're going by pie, I mean, obviously, Joseph's phenomenal. If we're going by pie, there's a great spot over here, Ruby Roses phenomenal over here. Princess is great. - What's on it? - Pepperoni? - Ah, bro. - Lobster and shrimp Alfredo. - That's just how the boss does. - I mean, Chile, you said you had it. - Chile, you have it. - What are we talking about? - What did you have? - What did you have? - What did you have? - What did you have? - What did I fucking pizza? - What did not fire? - It was. - Oh, can't it. - You don't want to be basic. They hold lives. - It's what it's like when white people talk about rap. Now I get it. - Yeah. - I get it. - Do you just like vanilla ice cream? - I understand it. - Yes. - Yes. - With no sprinkles. - This is crazy. - This is so pretty. - No. - No. - Why do you want everything so plain? - You would get a vanilla ice cream. - You put some whipped cream. - You put a little sea salt. - And then you put some. - That's a lot. - That's a lot. - Can I put? - Can I put you guys on games? Can I share the finer things in life? Or can I not get a fun thing? - I am here. - I am here. - I am here. - Just share information with the world. - You just gave us an Italian ice cream. You put four seasons on ice cream, bro. You put a hotel on ice cream. - Cafe Pana. - You go to Cafe Pana. You get the cookies in Pana. That's the best ice cream in New York City right there. You don't need anything else on it. Cafe Pana cookies in Pana. It's the best ice cream in New York City. That is the best. That's it. It's just cookies in cream. But it's cookies in Pana. Other ice creams, phenomenal. But if you want to get the fire one, you get vanilla with the whipped cream, a little bit of olive oil on it. They might even put a little sea sauce. It will knock your socks off and it doesn't need fucking lobster, and that can cheese and salmon or whatever. - Out of the cuts and slices in New York City, baby. Shout out to Slim and Husky in Nashville and shout out to Pizza Hut. Ooh, best pizza on the planet. Best places from Pizza on the planet. - Now you know, like Pizza Hut. - Best bread sticks. - Pizza Hut, right? - Yeah. - With bread, with bread, with bread, with bread, with bread. - Yeah, yeah. - By the way, Domino's is way better. - No, no, no. - No, no, no, no. - Domino's thin crust is, it is an elite. - No, but the bread sticks at Pizza is. - Yeah, but we're not talking about the guys, guys, guys, guys. I'm gonna, I'm gonna blow my head off here. Are we talking about pizza? Are we talking about bread sticks? These are different things. - Can you blow your head off? Can we use it for the sauce? - Yeah. (laughing) - I just ate them. The brain love us pizza. (laughing) - I saved it. - I saved it. - I saved it. - I saved it. - I saved it. (laughing) - Salute, Drew Skate. - Drew Skate. - Drew Skate. - Drew Skate got everybody up in arms and didn't even say shit. Let me tell you why Drew Skate is such a good guy at what he does. Drew Skate don't even got a say shit. - Nothing. - Nothing. - There are videos of him like responding though. - But there were AI at the end. - And this was me. - That's why, I don't like that shit. - I'm gonna do something about that. I'm not gonna go like all the AI tweets, the AI videos. This should be having me going. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Like I'm getting caught. - Yo, less than right. - No, it's bad bro. It's bad. Like this shit is getting too good, too fast bro. Like no, I don't like that shit at all. Cause I thought Drew Skate's, by the way, and when I saw Drew Skate, I'm like this, the only reason I was like this is not Drew Skate. It's cause Drew Skate don't talk this much. But he did the whole thing when he was like, Eric Kirk's doing me and if he knew something like this, I'm like this can't reach. There's no way Drew Skate, you just can't even talk like this. - Yeah. - And he don't talk this much. - Yeah. - And then I, when I saw Eric Kirk's alleged tweet, cause she never really responded either, right? - No, I don't think so. - When I saw her alleged tweet, I said to myself, why would you claim this? - I mean, why would you say this is you? I don't know if you, I don't know if you can't claim it bro. - I don't know bro. - The sparklers and then the staring into the camera. - You guys don't like it. - I saw three other conservative women that Drew Skate could have been in my team. But I didn't find out about them until after this sketch. And then people started sending me videos of these women speaking at CPAC and stuff like that. They are way more this sketch than Eric Kirk. - Okay, okay. - But he did name it conservative women. - Women, yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - But I think what's, so this to me like, what's fun about this is that I like when comedy riles shit up. - Of course. - I like when there's something that's put out with the intention of laughter and people take it seriously and get all angry about it. And I haven't seen comedy do that in a minute. There are people who make like political statements that rile people up, but they're not really funny. A pure comedy sketch got the internet going crazy. How long has it been? - What, 10 days? - When did it come out last week? - No, no, I mean, how long has it been since you seen it? - Since I've seen somebody rob people up with comedies. - That's when the comedy sketch, or even a stand-up bit. - I think it seems like I don't really. - What does Chappelle do? - Chappelle's not political though. They're more, they're social. - But like, what did he do? Like, he just said Israel or something? - I mean, but don't even count on the funny, some people. - I think it was, I think it was, this is like, this is silly the whole time and trying to make people laugh the whole time. It wasn't like, here is a political statement that large swath of the internet agrees with. And then there's a part of the internet that doesn't agree with it. It doesn't agree with it, right? This is just, I'm gonna be silly and people are angry at silly. - If I were there, I'd be offended at all the conservatives. - Why would they say it? - 'Cause y'all think I look like this? - That's what they say. - This man did not say anything. This man did not say my name. Okay. - That's right. - This is how y'all think I look. This is how y'all think I act. Y'all coming to my defense saying how fucked up it is and he's doing this to a widow. Why the fuck y'all think this is me? - Yeah, that's right. - No one else said that. - That's right. - I'm just doing those didn't pick immediately. - Good luck. - Good luck, good luck. I was like, I'm by the way. promise you when I saw the other two videos who are the other women Chris and there's another woman I saw acting just like Drew Ski bro and she's a conservative woman same size built in everything there she go what's her name cat come at can't believe this guy the AI bro no I never heard of this woman this I thought this was Drew Ski bro and she's talking at what is this what is the why are what is young republic young republic cat come back she barefoot that's who I think Drew Ski saw bro they said that's who I think Drew Ski saw bro and it's a another one that's real what do you say Chris I did double check that's real how do you know if it's real I found it through legitimate sources no it's not her that's the girl that said the viewer it's another one I promise you it's another lady that I saw that wasn't the cat lady and I'm like that's who Drew Ski saw Drew Ski saw a couple in him now he might have saw the Erica speech isn't it fun to have the internet riled up off comedy and they're not off of some fucking political agenda or political opinions I love it this is the place that we should be operating in but this is a it's technically a political opinion now that's not well I guess it is conservative women be acting but he's not talking about their opinions that they have he's just saying what they look like and how they behave and you can't say that he's wrong when you look at the video or the chick cat right you can say whatever you want but now you get an angry at comedy like when people get angry at comedy or angry at any form of art yeah it's just kind of silly right because it's like you're it's like being angry at a painting listen I told you know what do we do over here it's like clearly not being serious I told y'all last year and everybody got I'm like I say everybody I hate when I don't know why I gotta stop doing these broad generalizations but there was some people who got mad at me when I just said I think Druski is the best is one of the is the best sketch actor since shepal you had said all time I didn't say all time you did you did that's why people was okay you did say better than key in if I didn't say all time I think shepal and the limit color the best all time I think I think what he does isn't sketch and I think that's where he gets yeah he that is character act you're right and like impressions and like that's that like a sketch has like a framework there's a beginning of middle and an end and in this it's like a conglomeration of the internet yes you know and he's yeah yeah you know he's satirizing a cultural trend and it is more like he said it's character down else said that to me down I was like what he does isn't necessarily sketch is character acting yes and and I he character acting man he's phenomenal who else is doing it and the internet react to like this in the way he captures culture like whenever Druski decides to do one of these he captures it perfectly whether it's NASCAR whether it's football whether it's pastors pastors whether the white boy who grew up around the black dudes in the hood like like because you can always like when I see the white boy that grew up in the hood I'm like oh that's belly gang cushioned yeah you meet belly gang you like oh this is Druski yeah yeah then be like there's always somebody you can look at this sketch and point this three different people who you think Druski pretends to be interesting when he did the passive catch he was like oh that's oh that's that was supposed to be Mike Todd like right even I don't know if that was supposed to be Mike Todd but that's what people start saying yeah that's how you know you're good when people can actually point the folks and be like oh this who he pretended to be yeah the only I mean listen Druski's doing a phenomenal job I I think that it is character work so what you're saying it is character work I mean man can you imagine if you had like actual writers and then you're saying put it into like a scripted sketch format can you actually don't know if I think like part of the benefit of this is that it's made for the internet attention span which is just like here's a new character here's another thing here's another thing here's another thing instead of hey here's a two-minute story arc where some people are going to go I'm going to tap out because I just want you to give me to juice immediately give me the protein protein protein it makes sense especially for this one right like look at this the white boy yeah so that sounds great because he's on life so it's not like it would be a story going on on alive you know I'm saying it's I'm confused though why don't you consider this sketch because it is sketch he's scripting like he's saying scripted planned out I thought it was sketch until actual sketch people told me it wasn't he's a more like vignettes strong together so like again we're like what is it called a splitting hairs here but like the idea with the sketches that it's usually like premise executed yeah misdirect so it's like here's the premise here's the what it's that a great example is the key MPL sketch sketch it's like a guy goes in and he's going to talk to a doctor the doctor's like I'm sorry I have to deliver some bad news it's a your mom has like three months to live and the guy goes well your mom is so fat that's sketch right it's just like this character doesn't realize that he's giving a medical diagnosis he's actually doing he thinks it's a your mama this thing and then there's some kind of misdirect so what about like the shepelle and the archailly pieced up oh that's a big sketch like that's just super sketch Harry so well what I would argument I would make is that the things the argument I would make is that the things from shepelle show that were the biggest word character work of not sketches like oh yeah like people remember I'm rich bitch they don't remember what this I don't I don't remember the storyline of that it's this is what humans connect to right they they love we love impressions we love character work if you even think about SNL what are the things you really remember do you remember the arc of the sketch any Murphy book we you just remember the character and them living in that character that's what that's what tends to work now if if you do sketch it's because you love sketch and you want to write this tiny little story arc that kind of buttons up at the end but you're doing it for yourself you know and this type of content couldn't exist on TV back in the day because you couldn't pitch an executive no no I'm going to do a bunch of little vignettes of character work and it's going to take 30 minutes they'd be like well what what story are you telling or what is the ride we're going on but for the internet this is perfect because this is actually the part to the sketch that resonate the most with us. Druski is one of the greatest success stories the internet has ever produced yeah facts great he's one of the greatest stories the internet has ever produced and the reason I I really salute Druski is because he clearly invest in himself because he don't have to do this shit to this level for vignettes you know what I'm saying he can be like other people who just do the bare minimum like he literally does full fledged productions for these sketches and it pays off like it may not even pay off you know monetization wise on social media but man think about all the endorsements and everything I guess I think what it is is like it keeps the base engaged you can never say oh he went Hollywood yeah yeah yeah yeah you know I mean you can never say oh he left us like this is him delivering content to his people online yeah when he really doesn't have to and I think risks say again this is just like this could stop him from getting a T-Mobile ad this could stop him from getting a movie this could stop him from getting a movie yeah yes why because conservatives got phones too yeah and T-Mobile and T-Mobile is gonna go well shit am I gonna deal with this lobby saying we're not gonna we're not gonna you know buy your phones we're gonna cancel your service it's just a potential headache but people like that people like when they see artists that have something to lose continue to make their art I'll say this I haven't seen a conservative woman actually be mad at this sketch I've seen conservative women be mad about what people are telling them the sketch is about if they say hey this sketch is about Eric or Kirk I see people reacting to that but when you actually watch the sketch if you're a conservative woman whatever the fuck that means if you're a conservative woman and you watch the sketch are you really upset about this some when you actually see how these conservative women act the question is like if people get upset at comedy like they're allowed to get upset at comedy that that's the other thing you can't tell people not to get upset about shit if they want to get upset about the game it's a miracle for your react or whatever you want but it doesn't mean that he shouldn't be allowed to make comedy I agree so like but we also can't tell people to not be upset at things like there's a million things you've said and I've said that just upset people we never said right we never said right we never said nothing this is the most wholesome podcast on the internet for the last 13 years right you right you're right anything to upset any fucking body aren't you just accept people with that gas light and you just do it right now yeah just do oh gas lights you don't even know the fuck gas light means for real me too okay gas light means that fucking sound that comes on before shook ones okay what's that sound one of the greatest intros ever in hip-hop mother fucking history did you go to the airport I went to the airport this weekend how was I was fine that says I think they're exact nine I'm going to the couple say that I'm going miles good and say that first week people were being dramatic because now doesn't see you this you the airport on Friday and you know there was like it was like oh you need to get here early not gonna be able not sure if you can be able to use the greeters blah blah blah all of that type of stuff like that they let me use the greeters and dare I say ice was very nice dare I say these cannot be the same people that were industry raising the holy hell in fact I would bet okay not money but something else, mouth, maybe mouth. Yeah. That these are not the same people that was in the streets. These remember last week when I said it, I said, these these are either people, young kids who were working at Tim's services. Okay. Are older people who were retired and just wanted something to do. You know, sometimes the older person to get a job and get a job. There's no way that those people that were in the airports were the same people that were in the street with a mask on. It's no way. It's impossible. I don't know. I don't see. I don't see how. When I tell you that they were actually nice, inch below chickfully workers. Wow. But you got the greeter. They know you're saying, but I wasn't I was I'm glad you said that. I wasn't paying attention to how they was treating me. I've been to how they treating everybody. Yeah. Well, there's cameras everywhere. There's cameras everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. Yeah, but you don't know for sure. Amen. And they went out, huh? They were helping the TSA. They did everything. TSA workers were in that that was the day they said, I think they said 3500 TSA workers decided to stay home. They did everything. Really? Everything. They ran the everything running the line, scanning our tickets in, putting our stuff in the bins, everything. And I'm telling you, it's a saiyah. It's a saiyah. And guess what President Trump told us it was a saiyah. He literally said an opposed on true social that I'm paraphrasing him, but he said, this is like an image rebrand for ice. He said it. Look it up. He said he said it on a poll. He wants it. And he wants them to ingratiate themselves to the people. Listen, if I put you in the Air Force and I put these people in the Air Force and call them ice and they're actually nice and they're helpful and the Air Force is running efficient and they're getting the lines moving fast. People go, people leave and say, damn, I'll respect in a whole different experience from ice. Ice was actually nice. But then when the midterms come around, okay? And we're sending ice to the polling places. They call those nice guys that help them out. They won't be that bad. Next thing you know the few guys with the mask on, okay? Slamming you to the ground again. Yeah. Oh, it's a saiyah. I know it's a saiyah. He literally said, you found a post? What is a saiyah? Psychological operation. Yeah, I know what to say. Thanks. But what is it? It's exactly what turned Bruce and the Caitlin. He didn't know what to do. He didn't know. Why are you acting like you don't know what this is, bro? Why are you acting like you don't know what this is? Hold on. But then where do you think they got all the nice ones from? What do you mean? They fired them all during those people need a job. Hold on. People need, it's not hard to find people. You think it's hard to find people to just put in the airport for a couple of days? People do this. People was a lot of people that day. But people do need, people do need work right now. The idea that they're hitting up bonuses and they're giving out jobs. That was Mike's point. Give it, I mean, wouldn't we hear that like, yo, get hired to go to the airport, right? No. I don't know. I'm not exactly sure. What are you looking up to? I'm trying to find, I'm trying to find it. Stop acting like you don't follow them. Just go to your followers. Go to your DMs. Go to your DMs. Yeah. Here it goes. I am so proud of our ice patriots. They were unfairly maligned by the lunatic Democrats for years. And now at the airports in addition to what they're supposed to be doing, they're helping with bags, even picking up and cleaning areas. They are so proud to be there. In fact, they shouldn't have to do this, but they are rehabbing a fake image given to them by radical left Democrat politicians. The public is loving ice. So the Democrats unwittingly did us a favor. They are great American patriots. They just happen to have much larger and harder muscles than most, which is what they're supposed to have. Thank you to Ice for the great job you're doing. Very much appreciated President Donald J. Wow. Hey, man. Hey, man. I'm just saying, man, tell me what I saw Friday and it makes perfect sense. This is all a psychological operation for the big terms. This is not the same ice that was on the street. I said it last week on the podcast. I'm sure of it after experiencing it for myself. And they were saying, what's up? They wanted to take pictures. I'm telling you. I know what's happening. I'm just telling you. This is not this damn piece. So I'm trying to get ahead of a picture, bro. What do you mean? So I got a picture of 14 ice agents. He's just like, 14, 14, 14. My boys, 14. Me and the guys, 14. This is one. But the point is, I'm not the only person that felt like and it's on purpose. He, he told us in the truth, so it's on purpose. They're doing psychological operations. So when they put them out there for the midterms, nobody's going to think twice. Then you can turn the way by a backstage and you get the fuck out of here. Okay. What do I need to vote? You're already registered. Shit. Everything. No, you might have to register. You have to save back passage. That's right. Passport to vote. Yeah. No, I don't think you have to re-register. Yes, you do. That's part of the save back. That's one thing in the save back. Do you have to re-register? You got to show about that. Oh, 100%. That's one of the problems. That's one of the issues. You have to re-register all together. This shit is crazy, man. I don't even like carrying my passport. I don't like carrying my passport through the airport, but I, you know, the real ID shit. I'm not going to get that real ID shit, bro. You have to. I just carry my passport. I don't like doing it. I don't like it even. I forget every time and I got to pay $40. Oh, do you make you just pay? Now you got to pay $40. You forget it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But you got clear in all that. I got clear, but when they don't have clear at the airport or it's not accessible, then you got to pay. You say even with the passport. I didn't bring my passport. I always forget it because I I agree with you. It's like, that's the one document I don't want to be traveling with. I thought they're going to get rid of that too though. I thought eventually, probably. What is this? What makes the real ID more real? I have no. Don't because you can gain to government building. I don't need to go to government building. I need to go JFK LaGuardia. That's a government building. What else we got Taylor Gain? Taylor Gain Gain? I don't know. Maybe Chris knows her. Why did he? Why did you pull this up, Taylor? Why are you doing this to Chris Taylor Gain? He got his trending. You want Chris to get bricked up? Miss Grand Thailand contested Dara Thorn Yutong. Goes viral for her dancing moves and shaking her clappers during the swimsuit portion of the competition. What does this have to do with anything? It's trending. That's what I say, all right. Oh, but you didn't see this. What's this one? Let me tell you, direct off to this, Chris. Whoa. Is this, is this trans? What is this? No. No. What's Thailand? I know. Like Thailand, you got to know before you let your brain go there. What you mean? You got to know is she lady boy. Damn. No, that's lady boy. That's lady boy. I mean, I'm sorry. I mean, that's lady boy. Even if it is, I mean, if it's, if it looks cool, like you can't acknowledge that, it looks cool and keep it moving until she flexed her breast. You ain't got to get bricked up. You know what I'm saying? I don't even know if this is a lady boy. I'm gonna say who say, I mean, I can't but I'm just saying. Good work if it is. Yeah, y'all women need to go to Thailand and get your shit done. If that's what they do in Thailand, this is what y'all need to go get done, y'all. Because y'all BBL still be looking crazy. They haven't figured out the BBL yet. Hey, it's too many BEE. They're not going to do. You don't need two BEEs and one L. You need at least a lot of them. I mean, you need a BNL, huh? A lot of them. It's so great. What is this? She got too much energy, man. She got too much energy. No, it's definitely not. How do you figure this is not? Nobody's saying this. I mean, even looking at the comments, nobody's saying this is the guy. Look at the jump. You didn't see a flex her breast. Why not? Have you ever seen a woman? A woman came this time. Well, if you got your, if you got your breast arm, look, look. There we go. Right here. She about to do it. You can get your breast on top of the muscle, bro. Yeah. Hold on. Look at, look at, look at, look at. There's an all the way there. Whoa. From the side. I'm just letting you know if this is a lady boy, we're gay. We watched this for 35 seconds. Look at what she's doing. I don't think she's, I don't know. Taylor, you could do that right there. I said I can't do it, but I don't know. Taylor got the muscles. But I don't think that she relax. I don't think that she's like doing it. How y'all be doing it, though. I feel like she's just pumping her. She's just flexing her neck. Yeah. I don't know. She got the breast over the, she's got her breast done. Chris over the muscle. Chris had his tongue out. That's all. That was crazy. That was crazy. That's all. Yeah. Chris, what were you looking up? That's a joke. That's the, I see, you know, Chris, Chris, what is happening over there? That's just art, bro. Some other dope art I saw this week. Yeah. Cardi fucking be. What Cardi do? I went to go see Cardi last week at MSG, MSG Legends, Madison Square Garden, sold out shows. She did two sold out shows that metalized, not metalized state in Madison Square Garden. And Cardi has, Cardi's, I think she said she sold out every show except for some date in Canada. And Taylor got this video of me looking and she kept asking me if I was high. I wasn't high. I was actually watching this show and observing. I was in all number one because it was a fantastic phenomenal show. I mean, he was production, right? Like that captured everything love about Cardi B. Everything she's learned in the strip clubs. Everything she's learned just being funny in the streets of the Bronx, right? Being a phenomenal performer because she's been on these stages for the last decade. Like it just captured everything. But I was in awe just looking at the fact that man, this is Cardi B who used to be on Instagram 11 fucking years. Look at me, 11 years ago. Because I'm intrigued. I'm like, that's fucking body. Yo, that's body from fucking Instagram when we all watch grow to be this motherfucking mega star. Do you know how many people I saw used to front on Cardi B back in the day? Still to this day. You know what I mean? People used to tell me, oh, Shaliman, you trolling. Yeah. Always reposting Cardi B playing Cardi B. Do you have trolling, playing this cheap ass weave shit? I remember when Nicki Minaj, somebody said Nicki Minaj should do a song with Cardi B and she retweeted Cardi B and put LMA. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. And mad old and shit. Now she's selling out Madison Square. Fuck twice. Garden. Twice, bro. I was in awe. I'm not going front. I was sitting there like man. That is what dream was amazing. Also, when was the last time she dropped the album? Last year. Oh, so this she's torn the first album and then this album. Last year was her second year. I mean, her second album and what, seven, eight years and shit like that. But when I'm trying to make is like to have that type of connectivity to your fans and you've given them two bodies of work. Yeah, that's a compliment. I'm trying to like, that's a pretty amazing thing to do. But the other thing Cardi was doing throughout that process was features and drop-ins thing. Yeah, she was staying really. Never gave you an album, but she would drop features and she would drop singles and all them shit ring off in the garden. Shit that you shit like press press press press press. Cardi don't need more press. Ring it off in the garden. Features like shit tomorrow from Glorilla. Oh, you like god damn the Bruno Mars, but she got a whole she got a whole part where she don't do nothing but Spanish shit. Really? And they bring a taco out and there's a big taco on stage. That wasn't a that was a taco, right? No, they don't have tacos and Caribbean culture, no? I feel like I have. That wasn't a taco? Well, I mean, I wasn't there, but like I don't think tacos. Oh, I know each time, but it looks like a taco. That looks like a taco, right? What is it? I'm gonna show you. Maybe with just a bridge. It looks like a taco, but they bought it out and everything just goes straight Spanish for like 10 minutes. So like I like it like that. I like it like you know. Oh hell yeah. She's playing just some she got this whole, you know, video montage of all of this salsa and everybody just dancing like this shit is really dope, man. Just to see Cardi at that level. Yeah. Oh, fire. For her. Right. So she's like just had a kid in November. Did just have a great in November. She got all she bring the kids out on stage. Well, she bought them out on stage for the garden. I don't know. She does that every show, but she bought two of her kids out on stage. Oh, yeah. Is that not a taco? Look, you know what I'm saying? You say, I didn't realize. Is that not a taco? Yeah, it's a taco. Yeah. That's the fucking taco, bro. The taco, dude. It's totally a taco or half a bagel you would. You fucking would. I mean, this ain't like a particular baggy break before. Half and everything bagel, right? Oh, bodega baddie. Yes, you did bodega baddie. I like it like that. She did a couple of us. I guess we call it Latin records. Cardi is another one, man, and she's just proof if you are just your true authentic self, the universe will give you exactly what you're supposed to get. Yeah. But you've got to be your true authentic self and nothing else. Like literally nothing else, because you just got to be who you are at all times in the universe where we watch you. And she's never in a rush. Two albums and eight years, nine years, give you a single when she feel like it. I can you imagine trusting the timing of the game that much, especially in this era that tells you you got to constantly every second. Oh, my God. Well, I think that she has the, this is not it. This is the luxury of being an incredibly engaging personality, no matter how she communicates. So if you push out music, it's going to be hot. She has a music video. People are going to want to watch it. If she's on Twitter, they're going to read it. Like it's she is a gravitational force. And not everybody has that. Some people can only put out the music. So they probably need to do that a little bit more often. Yeah. You can't, and I was telling somebody this last week when they were talking about, because you know, Cardi's going to be teaching that how would you, we're not teaching at Howard University, but they're doing courses at Howard University based off Cardi B success. You can't teach that. Yeah. Would it be a star? Yeah, you can't, like you just you can't something. It's something it's in some people, not all of this. There's, there's, you can tell a person every single thing Cardi did. I don't know. It will not work for them. Exactly. It just won't, like it's absolutely won't. What is women wrestling move, Taylor? There's other her name, but she wrestled. And she put it down. Oh, yeah, Fox News journalist Abby Hornichek gets suplexed on live TV by wrestling champion Kennedy blades. I don't know why people are making a big deal about this. She agreed to do this. Yeah. Is this how she can't agree to do it? Yeah. She landed on her head, bro. That's right. She like, she did. She agreed to get suplexed. Oh, that's still cool to see. You can't. Everything. I was Abby. I need to like you. I need to see how often you watch other networks. Explain that to me. If you a person that watches CNN all the time, MS now all the time, right? And then you get the opportunity to slam a Fox News host. Oh, I see. That's one of the old times. I might need to see what you lean politically. She was taking out some first. Yeah. I can't just let you know this bias coverage. Because somebody goes to this young black girl and they're like, I think she's back. I'm assuming she's like, and they're like, look, you want to be on Fox News? She probably like, no, absolutely not. You want to buy the Fox News reporter? Get the body slam of Fox News ain't go really. What is this? This don't even make no sense, bro. Long. Yeah. Hey, he took a chance. And it's on a saltwacking like that with on the floor, bro. That's like a cushion. That's the soft mask. If he's trying to have to stretch afterwards. That shit hurts, bro. Do you have to do shit like that for MTV too? Like what? Remember when we had remember it was the women, the women lingerie. Remember MTV used to do the women lingerie league, women football. It was women's football, but it used to wear lingerie. Yeah. And we had to do this whole segment one time when we had to let the women tackle us. I don't remember that. Yeah, man, I wasn't invited to that one. Yeah. One of the women feared this shit out of you. Like it was like a spear like, and I tried not to move, but she hit something in my abdomen in the right way. She made me shift a little bit, bro. Really? Yeah, man. I remember I did a wrestling thing with a Chrissy D. Like we went to like an indie wrestling spot in New Jersey and they like taught us how to do this shit. For MTV too. That is you to pizza guy. I don't want my boy, Luigi Bremel. What happened? You see that wrestler is a wrestler. He like comes in with a pizza dough and so like he looks exactly like Andrew. And the WWE? No, he's on the indie scene, but like he uses the pizza in the thing. It's like he uses the dough as like part of his moves and shit. It's great. How about you actually trash his pizza for real? By the way, you don't know good pizza. By the way, you don't know by the way, if you're using the same dough that you're using the wrestling ring, that's still disgusting, bro. Well, it's not real dough. Oh, it's not. He doesn't actually make pizza. Who the fuck would be scared of the pizza man anyway? Yeah. How do you come in the ring and pretend to be the fucking pizza? We know one day we're going to understand Charles' imagination and how it works today. It's not that bad. I'm just saying it's not that bad. Man, you got to be intimidating if you were a wrestler. Like you know, the ultimate warrior. Well, don't call Steve Austin was a raging lunatic who came in the ring drink. It depends what the character is. You could also be a comedic character. Who's scared of the pizza man? By the way, nobody's ever scared of the comedic characters. Community characters never become world champ. Who's scared of Rick Flair? Oh, the nature boy. What are you talking about? He's coming out of the like fern like the tassels. Yeah, it's not white. They just want to kick your ass. That's the difference. The pizza man ain't kicking nobody's ass. This pizza man can't. No, no, no. Pull it up. Get up Luigi Primo. I don't believe it. I don't believe it. Never heard him. Luigi never heard of the guy. Never heard him. What else we got Taylor while we're searching for Luigi Primo? Did you see the other Asian. What did you mean? We haven't eaten first Asian. Yeah. Who's Taylor? Teller. Teller. Teller. One of these days, Taylor. Teller, one of these days, we're going to really understand you. Oh, that was that woman from Miss Thailand with Asian. Yes. She was Asian. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So, so who's the other Asian? Yo Chris, why should you be shooting at you to pass? I'm looking at my boy. I get the fuck out. Yeah, you're right there. - You like it? - Yeah, well, he throws the pizza. - No, he punches the pizza into watch. Boom, knock out. - Yeah, fire. - Yo, just send me your phone. - Yeah, I like it. - And we can all get along. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - He's like, "He's stuck to that." (laughing) - How the shit was that? - Yeah. (laughing) - What you think? - That was it. - That was it. - That was real? - Yes, the biggest compliment you're gonna get if you're white from Charlottes and-- (laughing) - I don't know who you ain't on this week. I didn't know who that hate's going to. - I'm hating on nobody. - No, there's gotta be somebody that's doing too well. (laughing) - I don't think I'm hating on anybody this week. I don't, I'm never really hating. - No, I know, I know. - I'm just having conversations. - Okay, who you having conversations about how they're overrated this week? - I don't think anybody's overrated, you know? I'm, I've been enjoying J. Coles press for a while. - Oh, tell me. - I really appreciated the interview that Cairn. I liked the cam interview. I liked all the interviews. I watched them. But the only thing I kept thinking to myself was, what does J. Coles actually believe in? - Ooh. - Like what was he talking about that made you feel that? I don't, I haven't watched any of the interviews. So, play this, Taylor. - But you said some of the beginning how like on songs like how I say I'm the best on songs. It's like, ask me in real life, who I think I'm the best rapper alive. - Do you think you're the best rapper alive? - Bro, it's a nickname black thought that exists. - So? - It's a nickname loop a fiasco that exists. - No. - It's niggas that on any given day, even my peers, a Drake or a Kendrick, where it's like, yo, I know any given day I can show up to the studio and get these niggas 80. But I know they can show up on any day in the studio and give me 80 and I might only have 30. - So. - So, if I'm taking on a rap persona, like when I'm rapping, of course, that's what I like to, that's how I like to rap. And guess what, sometimes I hit the mark and I say shit and I spit a verse that really might how you believe in that shit. But if you ask me in real life, do I walk around like I'm the best rapper alive? No, nigga, like I'm the best ever know, but when I put on that motherfucking cape, like that's how I try to attack shit. And have there been things and moments and verses where I'm writing this shit and I'm like, I know niggas not fucking with this. Absolutely. But in reality, do I walk around this earth like there's no nigga better than me in real life? Like I can't get in the studio with black thought and he just give me 90, you know what I mean? And I'm sitting there like, shh, I got 25 for you. (laughing) He wanted to be amazing rappers. But I think people hear me say it 'cause they don't know me for real. They hear me say it in a verse so much when I have on the cape. - Sounds convincing, like a monster. - I'm gonna be like, yeah, it sounds convincing. 'Cause I'm really doing that shit, that's gonna have a nigga like, man, he think he, yeah, you think it, no, you think it. - But don't rappers lie all the time? - Have you ever got on the stage and say, I'm the best sometime. - No, no, no. Have you ever written a joke and say, you know what? - No, this might be okay. - I also think to me is just saying there are bests as gay. Like I think it's just, it's the different. It's just not a, it's just not cool to do. I think with rap it's a different. There's like a bravado. There's an ego. There's these sorts of things, is it? But he's I just think being truly honest. And I think that a lot of times we don't want that. - How can we say this is honest? When he told us he's the greatest like Muhammad Ali on another record? Which is it? Is it, is it what I mean? - Well, this is why all the time when they're rap. - No, no, this is my, this is my interpretation. He's having a truly honest conversation with people about a dishonest medium, right? Like when you're rapping, you are wearing the cape and you are living up to that persona and you're living that fucking life, right? Like, Tupac is, is I'm Doug Lave. I got it all the way. We're not talking about Tupac taking ballet classes. He's not talking about any of that shit. He's, I am Tupac this character and there's who I am. And I'm living it through and through. - I think it's a different day. - Sure, sure, sure, it's different. I'm sure we can dissect it. My point is it like, so this, like I don't know, I thought it was like a really vulnerable and honest moment. Do I think that there's other rappers out there that some days I think they're better than me? Yeah, do I think I'm really nice and sometimes I'll write a verse and I'm like, I'm nicer than everybody? Yeah, which I think is probably if most rappers were being truly honest with you, they would have that same feeling. - I doubt it. - But you doubt it 'cause they won't have that honest conversation. But to your point, does that honest conversation chip away at the brand? And if the brand is about being the most macho, I'm the biggest guy and I'm untouchable, then that's not. - Kendrick Lamasset. - He says that-- - Mother, fuck the big three. It's just big me and he went out there and proved it. - But you don't think there's moments where Kendrick feels insecure? There's more for it. - No, interesting. - I mean, it's always rapping like the rinse do. At least on, at least in that booth, by the way, the booth is. - That's what he's saying, and the booth, I feel it. - He actually said the opposite. - He said at times when I put on the cape, that's what I feel. - You don't even need to wear a cape, wear just wear tights. Wear tights and going there with some pizza dough, if that's how you're gonna feel. - If you won't just, just don't even, I'm best known if you still don't know it. - Easy, Primo, you get multiple shout outs. I'm just saying, you know, just get multiple shout outs. - To put on the cape at all, if you don't feel like you're the best. - What about someone like Andre 3000, who's always been very introspective and vulnerable? - You know the difference? What? - He had to get in Alex. - He never says he's the best. - He never said he was the best. Jake Cole told us for three years straight, "I'm the best, ain't nobody fucking with me." He said he's Muhammad Ali. God damn. Now to tell us that you'd be feeling like Lil Max from Mike Tyson's bunch out. - When Jay Z says he's the best, I believe he believes he is the best. - But that's what you guys want from your rappers. And there might be people who want vulnerability. - No, I want it from the rapper who told me. - Yeah. - This is what he told me. Jake Cole created, this is the thing that Jake Cole does. He creates these narratives. - And then back to what we're talking about. - He created. - So what you don't like is the perceived flip flopping. What you don't like is he's going, "Hey, I don't know what his real name, what is his name?" - Jermaine. - So I'm Jermaine. These are the motions that I feel is Jermaine. And I feel like I'm incredibly skilled. And sometimes in the booth I'm like, "There's nobody better than me." And sometimes I'm like, "Damn, these guys are really good. They're better than me." You want your rapper to be 10 toes down, 100% of the time the persona that they are and nothing more than that. - By the way, Stan, I'm only making you follow the rules that you create. If you want me to respect this mulatto, then you got to stand, he said it. He said he want me to respect this mulatto. If you want me to respect this mulatto. - When did he say that? Oh no, oh no, last to fall off of him. He said, "You're going to respect this mulatto." To the twice. ♪ So conscious to tect and he's niggas thick ♪ ♪ I'm lesser for my complexion before I'm done ♪ ♪ They all gonna respect the mulatto ♪ ♪ Yeah, I said they all gonna respect the mulatto ♪ If we're songin', y'all don't listen to music. Y'all just came through it. - I don't. - I can't literally say what I respect this mulatto. - That's a wild line. - You've got to give me something to respect. - You lost Charlotte on mulatto. - You lost her, you can't let me tell you something. - You definitely lost her. When you said that, I'm like, "All right, we gotta keep an eye on this guy." (laughing) - We gotta keep an eye on this guy. And then he got another interview coming soon, too. - With whom? - I don't, it's called a Lost in Vegas. It might be out by the time we put this up. By the way, people act like I don't like Jay Cole, I don't dislike Jay Cole. (laughing) - I swear to God. - I don't dislike Jay Cole. Jay Cole's from the Carolina's and he can wrap his ass off. But man, this shit, these interviews have left me with more questions and answers. - You want wrestling, bro. - That's what you want. - You want the, you want Stone Cold? - No, I don't want 'cause he has a thing. I don't even know what this is real. - So now you're starting to question everything. - That's all I'm saying. - Why would you, you're saying that you believe that he's saying these things because it's a more likable position to take? - I think that whenever Jay Cole experiences any type of backlash, he is the type of person that will say what he feels like everybody wants him to say. In order to just feel that acceptance. - Yeah. - In the stand I'm saying. - That's what I think he does. That's my personal opinion. - His next song is going to be just all about showing me. - No, it's not. - Listen, I like Cole. I really do. I've just got a question. God, why can't I question things? Who's saying you can't do these interviews to be questioned? Why can't I? - Would you be mad if Kendrae spoke out and was just like, I did this rap because blah, blah, blah, blah. - If I did what? - I did this or a disrespecter. - You can't take a question. - Nice. - I just said it. - I didn't think it all true. - No, I said he came out with some interview with Apple and discussed his record with Drake. Would you full type of boy? - I don't want to see Kendrae do that with Drake. If Kendrae did any interviews, I already said, I want to see Kendrae sit down with DJ head, you know, glasses below. - Cool. - If Kendrae did any interviews, I want him to do nothing but West Coast interview. - Yeah. - But initially. Like, you see how Cole coals did four different interviews. I don't want to see him do nothing with West Coast interviews initially and then maybe, you know, go outside and do something different. But I want him to sit down and talk to people who actually know him from the beginning because I still think there's a lot of mystery around Kendrae Clemore. - But that's good. - It's great. Mystery is good. - I agree. - In a time where we know everything, about every person and every person has an Instagram, a Twitter, a podcast and they're constantly oversharing, not knowing things about people becomes currency and value. Now, it's hard to get people's attention without them knowing things about you. But if you manage to pierce through and you manage to somehow get their attention and you can pull away, woof. My dream interview for Kendrick, honestly, would be Kendrick Lamar and Debbie Brown. And the reason they would be Debbie Brown is because my good sister Debbie Brown, she's from LA, you know, she grew up in hip hop radio, right? And she's known guys like Kendrick from the beginning. She's interviewed Kendrick before. She's the one who put me on the Kendrick. When I first went out to LA in 2006, 2007, like she's the one who put me on the Kendrick. And her conversation would be would be high level enough that it would pull the things out of Kendrick that I actually want to hear. Because I want to hear the Kendrick that did Mr. Morale in the big stepper. Because the Kendrick that did Mr. Morale in the big stepper, that level of Kendrick is the Kendrick that was able to psychologically pick apart Drake. Everybody forgets meat to the ground. Go listen to meat to the ground. That's the person that's done a lot of work on themselves. Even you for you, but go back and listen to meat to the ground. That's a person who did a lot of work on himself and was able to psychologically pick apart Drake. Because he can see where Drake needs to do work on himself as a man. You listen to all of them dish records. They all were like that. Where's the boy? I mean, where's the man? Because all I see is, what do you say where's the boy? I see the boy, but where's the man? Cause I ain't seen him yet. Like sit like that. Like, oh, it's like, oh, he's in this motherfucker head. You need to do some ayahuasca to separate yourself from your ego. Like it's like, oh, he's in his head. Debbie and Kendrick can have the conversation that I think I would personally like to hear from Kendrick at this point. Those two guys spent a lot of time thinking about each other. That's great. By the way, you think that when you go to war with somebody, you don't? No, no. Let's do it. Let America put boots on the ground and I ran. Don't let them. Don't let them. But if they did, just who's been preparing for that for the last 20 plus years. Okay. Okay. That's all I'm saying. You gotta be ready for war at all times. You gotta know who your opponent is. Right. That's right. Like right now, Jay calls opponent is microphone when you just got to know who your opponent is. Cause if you don't know who your opponent is, you'll sit down in front of these microphones and be confused and will be like, well, when is this war going to be? Why don't we get a Jay Cole Charlemagne that God break down the black. You do it in black and white. That's my motto. Let's pay some bills. Damn. I didn't show you all the other agents. What is love with you? Tell her, let us see the girls teeth fall out. I don't want us to respect this show us show us the girls. See it falling out. Let's see the Asian Miss Thailand contested teeth fall out live on stage. Oh shit. Cause then this is a cute model. And we get it. You don't got good veneers in Thailand. Wait, you gotta hear her voice out. They don't got good veneers in Thailand, you know. Why you don't got good veneers in Thailand, man? Oh, you know, other shit that focuses on, man. Why do you don't got good veneers in Thailand, man? Cause you're not going there for the teeth, man. Going there for someone else. You're going there to get poked. Oh my god. Let me see. I said it. Oh no. Chris, you got it. Can we pay some bills if we wanted to 10 minutes to go tell her this was crazy. That's crazy. You always talk about why what Chris did to you, yo, but you just just stop Asian hate. All right, charts and announcements. Well, we got another kind of walk up. Yo, Rhode Island. Thank you so much, man. Did you go to your regardless, biscuit? I didn't, man. I didn't, I didn't. You were there. We were there quick, bro. It was it was in and out. But thank you guys so much, man. It felt great to just be back on stage and Nashville. Thank you guys so much. So that was that was really awesome. And I'm going to be putting out. I think we'll be announcing like a few shows soon. I think we'll announce in like a few clubs in the near future. So stay tuned to that. I'll probably post on my Instagram or something about it. And yeah, get on those quick. That was that was fucking awesome. Feels great to be back. Feels great. I want to tell everybody that Arsenio Hall's memoir. Arsenio is available everywhere. You buy books right now. Okay, go out there and grab a copy, man. It is one of the greatest entertainment memoirs I've ever read in my life. If you are a fan of, you know, just 90s Hollywood. If you grew up in the area where you remember what Arsenio Hall meant to culture. Believe me, you have no idea what that man had to do to move this culture that we love forward, man. So go pick up Arsenio Hall's memoir. You buy books right now courtesy of Black privilege publishing Simon and she was the lot of press today. I noticed New York Times profile and New York profile. Listen, it goes back to what we talk about when it comes to being mysterious. Arsenio Hall's 70 years old and he don't really talk a lot. There's not too many long form Arsenio Hall interviews you can find. I can think of a Vlad TV one. He did breakfast club and coming to America. Tool came out. He didn't be a zoom. Other than that, you can't really find too many, you know, long form Arsenio Hall interviews. So the fact that he has a book out and he's really telling us this is a real memoir from start to finish, the beginning, middle and, you know, where he at currently in his life, man. I hope the younger generation takes interest in his life. He will, you know why? Tell me. Because the people who have the platforms now know what he means. So he's doing Rogan. Start, you know what I mean? Arsenio was almost like podcasts before podcasts in that. Absolutely. His show became a incredibly disruptive force for introducing people to the mainstream. 100%. And I don't think it was expected to do that in its inception. I think people were like, oh, this is going to be a cultural thing and just the culture will watch it. But it broke out in this massive, massive way. Well, you know what he did? What do you do? He introduced the culture to the mainstream. Yes. Because the culture was growing at the same time. Yeah. Hip-hop culture was growing at the same time. But it was just this amazing disruptive force. And I hope that our generation has interest in that because of the role that he played. I don't even know if he's credited in a lot of ways. I think we understand it in that impact. But when you look back at the impact of the culture and how it becomes mainstream and how it becomes consumed. And not only becomes mainstream, but like it became, it's very rare that things are mainstream and cool. Yeah. And that's something that like Black American culture has been able to do that is very difficult. Like usually what makes things cool is that they're rebellious and not mainstream. And for a very long period of time in American history, Black culture has maintained being dominant culture without being corny. That's because every single time there's a new rapper that comes out like a new fresh rapper, right? Like you had your snoops and then, you know, later on you have a DMX. Then you have a 50 cent. They're all new iteration. They're rebellious. They're all right. Exactly. Anyway, it's just I've always found them to be like a fascinating figure. And I just hope that young people are curious about it. Well, it's going to be hard to avoid them. As Chris just said, you know, you got to New Yorker. You got to New York polls. New York Times already did a big article. New York Times gave him a great review. He's doing everything. He's doing Conan O'Brien. He's a friend podcast. He's doing good morning America. He's doing, you know, co-bear. He's doing the view. He's doing Rogan. He's doing breakfast. Let me do an investigation. Yeah. That's our senior fucking hall, guys. Yeah. That's our senior fucking hall. Okay. When you are that type of cultural institution, people want to sit down and talk. Oh, so you just want to hear the stories. Oh, my God. Man. Yeah. Wait. I'm not even joking. I know I'm biased because I'm publishing it and because he's, you know, an entertainment idol of mine. This is one of the best entertainment entertainment memoirs I've ever read in my life. And I can't wait for other people to read it. I mean, people I've seen reviewed. I can't wait for other people to read it because I know I'm probably too close to it just because I love Boston, New York Hall and have always loved us in New York. So I'm just so eager to hear his story. So I was so eager to read his story. But I'm telling you this book does not disappoint. I read the Times in the New York article. I think the thing that kind of stood out is he says he's a real introvert, right? He is. Yeah. A really quiet, not confident, you know, he basically says that whoever you saw on TV was me projecting who I wanted to be and the second the cameras are often a much quieter kind of scared, you know, like and it took him a long time to kind of build up that courage. Yeah, which was interesting to me. Because you got to remember the other thing about his legacy is so when he does it, it's all right, but when Cole doesn't, I believe that when Arsignal doesn't because Arsignal never said he was the best. Arsignal ain't running this sit in front of microphones and tell us how I believe. I'm fucking. I'm fucking. I'm fucking. But yeah, that is a cool thing and I think it yeah, I'm very excited just for what is it like sometimes you know entertainers have been in In the business forever and haven't gotten me a job. Well, I think he's gotten his to us I think he's got his just to but I think that there's sometimes a research and slate in their careers Yeah, there's this like reminder you go maybe as we get older we have we feel like a little touch of nostalgia like we want it And then there's this reminder you go. Whoa. Yeah, that guy that was the dude and Yeah, be really cool if that happens. You also got to remember how many other This is all happened to error where the late night talk so was the pre-eminent In every show. Yes, they put a ton of money into magic Johnson. I remember having a late night remember. Yeah after us in you Was it? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Howard Stern. I think had one at that time on our call Don't River like there was a whole slew of like big names that they really hyped up was the one who were gonna like inherit the throne He was the one who kind of he would never would have network I thought he was on he was never would have network like you know how like uh Leno was with uh NBC Carson and Leno's NBC and it was the whole CBS thing and they got in the late night and they had he on was it syndicated He was literally syndicated so you would you could buy him and put him wherever you wanted to put him He wasn't I thought he was but Fox all those years. I thought Fox had really invested into late night Oh, so like in some cities he was in Fox. That's right cities. He was on a different. That's right. That's right Even more interesting that he was able to cut through that's right, but he cut through cut the culture Yeah, yeah, he cut through because the culture because the who he was choosing to put on um to put on his platform But yeah, shout out to our senior go get the book our senior the memoir is available everywhere you buy books now And the fourth annual black effect podcast festival is happening saturday april 25th and uh and landed judge at Pullman Yards Drink champs is going to be on that stage reality with your king with Carlos king uh keep it positive sweetie with Christopher and they has let um Club 520 with Jeff T Uh, who am I missing grits today's podcast with Deontay Kyle and big ice cup cat and don't call me white girl Mono will be on that stage so go get your tickets at blackeffect calm slash podcast festival And if you haven't heard I have a new show.

What else we got Taylor Oh, Olympic committee bars transgender athletes from women's events. I don't know how big of a deal this is Right. Whoa because I don't know how many trans into athletes were even participating in these women's events Well, if they were allowed to wouldn't it be all So one No, like If they were allowed to compete in the women's events wouldn't it just be all trans? Oh, I'm saying but they bar transgender athletes from women's events But it was there are influx of transgender athletes For no, these women's events. That's what I'm asking. I think the one is like uh the uh The boxing the girl one for about. Oh, yeah, you got a bit. But technically she's not trans Oh, yeah, my god. What? What? Something about her blood that it has both Jeans or whatever like yeah, XX and that's why yeah, but chrome chromosomes oh, yeah, is it chromosomes? But she was born a woman technically. Mm-hmm. I don't want to talk about this Like practically she's not trans as well. I don't want to talk about it. All right It turns your swims day is coming out and if you know if you watch Avengers dooms day in Avengers dooms day You know the X-Men are in Avengers dooms there Yes, and they're talking about how they're going to make the mutants introduce the mutants to the MCU And so it might have been something because of the snap the snap created some type of Radiation that activated the X gene obvious that exists that's it that already existed within The movie have you guys noticed that the trans conversation doesn't even exist anymore? Huh now they trying to bring it back. Are they really? But like for a while we weren't even talking about it. Yeah, but the midterms are coming up. Oh, so the electors go or not Yeah, Republicans got to get something new. Yeah, the trans boogie Boogie man woman thing ain't gonna work no more man boogie person The boogie day boogie day boogie day the trans boogie They're trans boogie them that ain't gonna work guys. They're gonna work man. Yeah, the trans boogie didn't make all work Got transition us out of this war you gotta cut. Yeah, this is gonna work Transition is out of this fucking war. The trans. Yeah, the trans boogie didn't make all work Let's do some masculinity. It's tail hold on speaking of the war. Okay. Okay. I wanted did you see you got shout out by Professor Zhang? No way. Yeah, get the fuck out of here Charlemagne why are you sending me this Chris? You're an English lit graduate and you're not a professor I know it's your YouTube moniker, but you're a high school teacher. You're not actually a professor Right, so When I went to Yale, I was actually a math and physics major I was declared a math and physics major but the Yale English department was very strong and so I switched majors So I both I have actually both a math background as well as an English background That's why my system of analysis can can seem strange to people because I'm combining a multi-disciplinary approach to my thinking Um Yeah, and I'm not a professor. I'm not a professor But but I never said I was professor. It's the internet who called me Hold on hold on you don't call yourself professor Jiang on your YouTube channel I do now, but when I first started out if you go way back to my Fest started out you do call yourself professor Jiang at your daughter professor Look look. There's a guy on the internet who calls out who calls himself the god? Have you interviewed him yet and ask him why he calls himself the god? I think I'm good friends with the radio has called Charlemagne the god But no one actually thinks he's a god people actually think you're a professor Oh, wow. All right, let's give that some context What would they beef it over? It sounded contentious So that was professor this is what this is what Chris has been saving his I know He's he got a small guess He's ready to know all it all right good to us Chris and by the way, based off the thing where we just did he can Identify whatever he wants. Thank you. Okay. Thank you continue Chris would all right, so professor Jiang If I'm saying it correctly, I'm probably not has been one of these Voices let's say that's really emerged on the internet is Commentator on the war and geopolitical situations and what the he practices the game theory He's a believer in the game. He also predicted this almost exactly. Yeah, there's also a lot of questions as we can tell and that was Many Hassan he was talking to this is Jay Kolba. I don't think that Chris disliked this guy watch watch watch But every time I bring him up he's got a little stuff That's okay, you don't know how right you are you don't know how right you are go go go go Yeah, I see you stuff on him and you always gotta lose I just said I put a little asterisk next to you do you do a little asterisk next to his name. Yeah, so he's in China right now mainland China He had been kicked out of mainland China by the Chinese government for being a spark And then he went to Toronto where he became known for a fact that he was kicked out. He talks about it in this interview and he has a reason Why it happened it was a misunderstanding essentially of course, but This is a very interesting interview because to me a large part of the interview was many Hassan Trying to get Professor Gianni to basically admit that he's a mouthpiece now for the Chinese government that he's pushing the Chinese agenda Because why else would they let you back in? After you've already been kicked out right and now you're free to say whatever you want where everyone else in China is incredibly censored Why all of a sudden do you have this microphone that can't be shut off and what is his response? His response was well the reason they're not censoring me is because I'm not talking to a Chinese audience They only care about what a Chinese audience Ingest I'm speaking to Americans and that's not something that the Chinese government's concerned about Well, what does he say about China? Because I don't think China would censor him saying things about other countries right if they were potentially advantageous So of course many some presses him on that and then his responses like well China just wants peace in the situation That's all that China really wants China really. Oh, no, did many get him? I don't think many got him but he was circling and we start to put him in a Chinese finger track Well, what was that? Well, many also this is what was interesting to me too many comes after him for being anti-Semitic Oh, he's anti-Semitic That was many's point and it got it got very much into the weeds of this And you might be familiar with the term. I can't remember it Pan Judeica, are you familiar? Oh, yeah, yeah, so he was greater Israel, right? So he's trying to pin him on a pan Judeica argument and I thought I thought the professor did a pretty nice job kind of bobbling and weaving and not getting pinned down on anything But I've enjoyed his commentary. I would say that could ask a question What would make him a Chinese spy because the only reason I know him is because he was right About the things that he predicted You are you are not listening just No, no, I'm just saying I was listening But why would people think he's a Chinese spy with all he was kicked out of kicked out for being a spy then let back in so the idea is he would be a double agent But what would what would he be doing to America? He's literally done nothing but predict exactly Well, he's his overall message is that America's entered into a situation that can't get out of and that this is going to be a big problem for America. Yeah, but I mean, who haven't said that? Well, he's predicting that America's going to lose this world. Who haven't said that? I heard nobody said we can win real. I don't know if that's the, I mean, yes, I heard that Trump was going win. Did he be going to choose Vance or? No, his thing is Trump was going to choose. JD Vance. No, no, the woman. No, no, he said either one. He said JD Vance. He said both of the Trump will go away, but it was either or. Oh, call both sides. I didn't have heard that he said we were going to go to worth Iran and that there would be boots on the ground. Yes, those are his big and these all these things. Have come true. Yeah, I mean, that's what I'm saying. What is he done? That's so Chinese, why is this? Well, what I think is interesting about him is that and reason why these galvanized so much support online and that it also could be like. Clip farmed and you know, they could be putting a lot of money and making sure that his messaging is going everywhere. Who is they? I don't know, right, but it just so happens that there are a lot of Americans that also feel the sentiment. They're like, why the hell are we going into this war? How does this advantageous to us? We're just going to lose a lot of money potentially American lives like what the fuck is going on? But to your point, which is like if. If this is to the benefit of China that the American sentiment is this. What is to the detriment of China? Which is probably America having a controlling interest in the oil coming out of Iran, right? The US being in control of the Straits and China having to pay a toll or at least having some sort of impasse. The other thing about this guy is he's very into secret societies, apparently. And that's another thing that people point out. I find it interesting just. He's a black israeli. Yeah. Okay. I know. Okay. A yellow israeli. Don't do it. What? What? And I on that point though, I'll say something interesting. I follow a guy forget his full name Jerry. He's a Nigerian guy who's in China that speaks fluent Mandarin goes around China. And not in the big cities, but in rural areas and people are shocked to see him. They've never seen an African before in person. And they're always coming up to him and asking, or at least this is what he posts, you know, is your skin real or dirty? Like, you know, and not a racist way, but in a purely like inquisitive way. Yeah, I really can't believe it. He says, no, I was born this way. My skin is this color. You know, what color is your skin? And the Chinese people always say they're white, which is interesting to me. And he says, no, no, no, you're yellow. And they're like, no, we're white. That is interesting. We've never heard Asians say that. The only, I think we're the only country that calls people yellow. And I'm not even talking about Asians. I'm talking about even like would like skin people bathe people waffle color. Like, we're the only ones that do that. That's interesting. So, so the Chinese think they're white. But I don't think they think they're white in the American sense. Just skin tone. But to them, it's white. If you were to ask, you know, and he always talks to little kids, which is interesting because they're the most kind of like honest about it. Yeah. And they, they look at their, you know, he says, what's your color? And they look at their hands and they go, I'm white. I mean, they're right. Right. Yeah. And I'm like, they're walking around here looking like canaries. Yeah. You know, it's true. Like they're not yellow. Yeah. Why don't we even say that? But you're also not black. I guess I'm brown. You're brown. You're brown. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm requesting that. So again, I'm not a kid. I remember questioning my mom like, why are they called this black? I'm clearly brown. Oh, my daughter said that now they understand why they get called black. But they're like, but we're brown. Yeah. Yeah. They totally get that. This isn't really white. I mean, it's close to white. But yeah. But the thing that we were rounding up, the thing I don't understand about the professor guy, it's like if he's in mainland China, I thought they're not allowed to use YouTube. So he's talking about VPNs and all this shit. And he has an answer for everything. But what in China? Like as popular as he is. He's a giant Chris. When you get him. Yes. Of course. Of course. He is. I like a president. I'm watching. No, but of course, they're aware of what he's doing and the messaging has to be now. It doesn't mean that the messengers are inauthentic to him. But the government must feel that this messaging also has been their agenda because they take a billionaire tech CEO. They lock him in a fucking basement for a month. They're not going to let him throw up YouTube videos on an app that doesn't exist in China. If they're not okay with it. So the videos that are getting a lot of traction. Huge traction. They're aware of star like absolutely. So of course, there's I and what is he? He doesn't go like obviously they're aware and they like this messaging. He doesn't say that he's trying to say because the audience is Western and not in China. They're only concerned is the type of information that goes out that Chinese people they don't care about Western, which is probably fairly disingenuous to your point. Well, but the interesting thing is Charlemagne. Why not just be honest though. Why not just be like I guess the Chinese government likes what I'm saying. Like it doesn't change the fact that this is what I believe because I think part of the reason his brand is resonating is it because he seems to be an independent thinker. Right. That he's just parroting a storyline that's beneficial to China. But don't we assume that with everything that comes out of China? Like if there's state sponsor media coming out of or not even state sponsored if there's like a Russian YouTuber that's popping off like Putin is not going to let that happen. I'm more concerned about the American people would have be pushing probably into other countries. Oh, talk to us. You don't worry. Oh, it's coming out. Be patient guys. Oh, it's coming out. Be patient. Oh, yeah, like I didn't think that until right now. So now I'm questioning what I think nobody I think you never thought about it. Well, I think you never question things that match what you feel. Like when something meets you at what you're feeling, you're like, oh, yeah, that must be right because I feel it and this person is saying it. When things go against what you feel, you start looking for different ways to discredit that person. No, I had the opposite reaction. Oh, really? I saw this video. I was like, I like what this guy's talking about who's busy. And then I started doing some research and I was like, hmm. Still fuck with them. Let's do some asking idiots, man. Let's do it. Chris is in here. Hey, I don't like to be one smart Asia. It's crazy. It's kind of crazy. Oh, but I will say, well, I will say Chris is the first person to say, I don't think this guy's a real professor. I was sending Chris from clips to him and you're like, I don't think this guy's a real professor. I was like, damn, okay. And Chris was right. Kindle with comedy says, what video game cheat code would y'all want in real life, easy call up, up, down, down, left, right. So let's start a B 99 lives 30. How many lives 30 lives, I believe. What's the Contra one? That's this guy's concert. That was it. What's the kind of 99 lives? That's 30. You get 30 lives. Yeah, the Contra Colt. Yeah, up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B.A. It gives you 30 extra lives that is at the top of the fault three. What a game Contra was. Contra was so far. You wouldn't change much though. If you even if you had more than one life, bro, you wouldn't live reckless. No, no, not even that. Like what is like turbo would be fire. Be able to use turbo. I'm not gassing you like go faster. I'm not gassing you. What game was it? Bad in any NBA. Oh, no, no, I would want to go fast. I don't think life is lived the best fast. No, you don't even know what I'm saying. Just like you can just run this run quicker to a spot. You have a track star. I was telling you, I was telling you, I'm not gassing you. You always want to fast with no reason. Exactly. What reason would I play a paddle? I get there. Oh, see that's different. Okay, okay, okay. No, you'd be better off with like night crawlers, powels to just bang. Yeah. Yeah. All is every single mother. Oh, that would be fire. Be able to disappear and then reappear in another place. Yeah, that's not mine. Cause then you're avoiding the TSA. You're just going to vacation. You're going to meet. That would be amazing. But didn't your whole family without the adults battles. They got to come with me. If you hold them. Yeah, hold them. Yeah, that would be fire. That's great. But that would be fun. Do you think it takes away some of the enjoyment you get when you travel someplace? Cause now you could be anywhere. It does. And I'm fine with that. Yes. I could and we could cut travel travel travel travel. Also expensive. Once you have a family of five, five people, it's like, you. Oh, man. Thank God it says they workers got paid this week. And then I was talking to some of them when I flew in today and they was telling me that they only got two of the paycheck that they were supposed to get. I think they're supposed to get three. So it's just five week period. They got two. So they say two thirds of what they were supposed to get. So the thing I don't get. How can he just make an executive order to pay? So every time we have a government shutdown, why haven't presidents just be like executive boarded my way out of it? I don't know. I don't know why every time we have a government shutdown, the motherfuckers and the government are the ones that shouldn't get paid. The Congress people to law make because they don't want that shouldn't get no motherfucking money. Why don't we keep doing this to every day working people make all world. Go around mind boggling make the law the law makers can't get no money But they wouldn't even give a fuck all the money. They make it on the table. No, but there might be some of them You right there might be some of them and enough of them that it might be influential put some pressure I wonder I have 100% but if if regular everyday workers are getting paid Congress that can shouldn't you pay what do you think you can Congress get paid monthly? I Don't know look that up Monthly by weekly whatever I mean it's just a check at the end of the day How often the government workers get paid it's government. So I often do law makers in Congress Get paid legally right not that under the table money Are you paying twice a month in my monthly and the annual salary is typically 174 grand per year and you know What else 24 pay checks the year no first and 15 for each month no security for them while this is shut down A lot of them don't have it now though. Well, you don't have to pay outside security good even more now You got to pay outside security like that. We got to strip things from them because right now they're playing with other people's lives And I thought it was good last week. I don't know if every airline did it but there was some Airports or maybe it was airlines that wouldn't let law makers You know use the perks they usually use like that to get readers TMZ was saying take pictures of them if they're traveling right up. Fuck all that well to be fair Luzi Graham was photographed at Disney World this week. He didn't have any security. Really. Yeah, I mean he was running up on mr Burns I ain't nobody what he might know and now days in this era Well, would you even know Luzi Graham if you saw him on the screen? It's all over the internet really people are very interested about this Interest who is he there with nobody? It's you. Oh interesting. You know. Oh, he's definitely a Mickey's definitely a Mickey's guy. He wants that Mickey You don't want to be nowhere near mini. Uh-uh, man. Yeah No, he's probably more goofy Goofy's little sweet. You think goofy sweet. Yeah, why do you gotta give the dope? Why you gotta just give the recipe away? Why we can't just just playing. Oh, thank you. I'm so excited. I'm so excited. I'm so excited. Okay, he come like You know me you know what though Lindsey Graham did say he was excited for ice man I bet he is. I bet that's his favorite character Bobby. He can't wait for that ice man movie to come out Real be smooth as you wake up one day missing one since which since would you rather lose and why? smell I could go I could probably go now smell but doesn't smell fuck with your taste, but I'm assuming it doesn't I'm assuming those are separate so I don't have smell, but I still have taste. I could go through life. That might even be an advantage What's since would I at common common Comment that's not common We didn't really need common sense nothing That's not one of his common sense really get you as you wear guys. No, yeah, I ain't nobody cares about common sense Nobody gives a fuck no more. Okay, we've been saying common sense in common. There is no value to common sense Zero is it really?
