Speaker 2: I try to give you all some ambiance. Man, it's
Speaker 2: the end of the Year special. I like it, you know,
Speaker 2: sex it up a little bit.
Speaker 3: I feel like you're doing some like DNA fingerprinting off
Speaker 3: to the side or something.
Speaker 4: Nah, I'm actually just opening logic.
Speaker 1: Or some handwriting analysis. Either way, the right lighting for it. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm really happy to see you guys. Just been a while.

Speaker 1: the year in Special shouldn't be a shock to you.
Speaker 1: Where we just uh we keep it casual. Now grandiose introduction.
Speaker 1: You know, we're just talking. So it's like you guys
Speaker 1: are just eves dropping into our conversation when we kind
Speaker 1: of just open the door of what Unpaid Bill has
Speaker 1: been doing lately. You know you've been the one going
Speaker 1: out and getting cigarettes. Unpaid Bill, did I bought a
Speaker 1: whole carton? Yeah, it's been a minute, so talk about
Speaker 1: what you're doing. I saw a little preview of it
Speaker 1: when you guys came to visit the Tonight Show. Can
Speaker 1: I assume that when and Juliette, which is the name
Speaker 1: of your Broadway play? Am I assuming that it's the
Speaker 1: Romeo and juliet told through the music of Max Martin.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a retelling of Romeo and juliet So
Speaker 3: Romeo doesn't die and Julia. I'm not gonna spoil or
Speaker 3: alert it. Juliete doesn't die. Nobody dies and they come
Speaker 3: back and Romeo comes back to life, and uh yeah,
Speaker 3: and it's all the music of Max Martin.
Speaker 6: So it's like The.
Speaker 1: Weekend and Backstreet Boys and and sank.
Speaker 7: And everybody dies, they get married and they live happily
Speaker 7: ever after.
Speaker 4: That's what all.
Speaker 1: I don't want to ruin at all.
Speaker 7: You got to say, Okay, still drama.
Speaker 3: Okay, still drama, which reminds me we should have a
Speaker 3: quest of Supreme visits the Broadway because that's never happened
Speaker 3: and would be hilarious at some point. Whenever Fonte decides
Speaker 3: to leave the house.
Speaker 7: You know what, Bill, you know what it is.
Speaker 4: I left the house. I left I came for, I
Speaker 4: came for. I'm down to do always.
Speaker 1: I saw it well.
Speaker 7: Yes, New York Trip twenty twenty two was a better
Speaker 7: year because Fante came out the house. I had a
Speaker 7: whole conversation with somebody this weekend about Fonte coming out
Speaker 7: the house man the things that changed. I gotta tell you.
Speaker 1: I see so, Sugar, Steve, how was your twenty twenty two?
Speaker 8: It was just it was pretty good, you know, getting
Speaker 8: back to normal. Did a lot of records for JM.
Speaker 3: I uh.
Speaker 8: We just dropped Sasha Berliner. She's a vibrantphone player. And
Speaker 8: we got David Murray album coming out, and Laggie lund
Speaker 8: is coming out. He's a Norwegian guitar player. We got
Speaker 8: a replier solo piano Ray Angry Box Sat coming out soon. Wow,
Speaker 8: We've got a Mike Mitchell album coming out, solo drums,
Speaker 8: Mike Mitchell, you.
Speaker 1: Know what I want from Ray Angry? Can you challenge
Speaker 1: Very Angry to do one album with just his right hand,
Speaker 1: like Ravel, but with the right hand not the left. Yeah,
Speaker 1: basically I want to see if Ray can actually I
Speaker 1: want to see how creative Ray gets.
Speaker 6: When you put a.
Speaker 1: Handicap boarder.
Speaker 8: You know, yeah, we'll call it righty.
Speaker 1: What about the what's the project called three Guys Walk
Speaker 1: into a Yeah, and.
Speaker 8: We recorded an album with Quest and Ray and David Murray.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and.
Speaker 8: We're actually calling that plumb p l U m B,
Speaker 8: which means to dig deep. And it's going to be
Speaker 8: another four platter box set. Actually the box is going
Speaker 8: to be plum colored velvet.
Speaker 1: Is it just like free and groovy or is there charts?
Speaker 5: Like? What is it?
Speaker 1: What are way to find out? What my projects called?
Speaker 8: Well, one of the what we called one of the songs, uh,
Speaker 8: pleading pleadings?
Speaker 6: Is that what Pleaadians? Yeah? That was I Yeah, I
Speaker 6: suggested we call.
Speaker 1: It Three Pleaadians Walk into a Bar. But then yeah,
Speaker 1: this this makes sense. Yeah, but I wanted I wanted
Speaker 1: a Padian angle only because I feel like David Murray
Speaker 1: and Ray angry.
Speaker 4: Are you out of space? Probably?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Really the only two figures.
Speaker 8: Well, I don't know, Uh, Pleaadians is a it's a galaxy, right, yeah,
Speaker 8: you take the highest level of the galaxy.
Speaker 1: It's it's said that they're watching us, like when you
Speaker 1: get inspiration or ideas like oh I should do that,
Speaker 1: like that's.
Speaker 6: That's your antennae.
Speaker 8: They're they're suggesting it to you, so and answering Bill's question,
Speaker 8: I think it was Bill. It was mostly improvised. It's
Speaker 8: one or two songs that came in with charts, but
Speaker 8: the rest of it was was wholly improvised.
Speaker 1: That's cool.
Speaker 6: The last four songs we did were kind of amazing.
Speaker 5: I like this.
Speaker 1: I kind of hope that you sequence it backwards, like
Speaker 1: the last song we did was awesome, and you know,
Speaker 1: work your way backwards. That's my suggestion.
Speaker 4: But yah, yeah, what's up?
Speaker 1: I was your twenty twenty two? You look glowey right now.
Speaker 1: This is because we know that we're I mean, there's
Speaker 1: there's no len lenkra.
Speaker 7: But I know, we know at twenty twenty two brought
Speaker 7: us to the screen, you know, so people to watch
Speaker 7: it and yours. Your shit always looks so, you know,
Speaker 7: moist and glowy.
Speaker 6: Some people, Well I just got off stage, so whenever.
Speaker 1: You know, I literally just got done the tonight show.
Speaker 7: But oh okay, oh that oh that's makeup. Okay, Well, no,
Speaker 7: twenty twenty two was good for me.
Speaker 1: Actually it's not makeup. I mean I washed my face.
Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying that you eat the good vegetables,
Speaker 7: you do the right things, you drink the.
Speaker 1: Water, well that too, But I mean, like, you know,
Speaker 1: we we have the our barber and our you know,
Speaker 1: you get cuts every day.
Speaker 6: Like there's there's the fun.
Speaker 1: Part of doing late night television where you get fresh
Speaker 1: cuts and you know, yeah yeah, yeah, get shaped up
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. So anyway, how is you? How
Speaker 1: is your year? Like, you've not talked about comedy? Are
Speaker 1: you still having a dream of comedy?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 7: Don't do that. Somebody just did that to me the
Speaker 7: other day because they were listening to like a classic
Speaker 7: QLs episode and they were like, why, how's your comedy doing.
Speaker 7: I was like, oh, I started work. I was going
Speaker 7: to talk about how happy I was about twenty twenty two.
Speaker 7: So you brought that up. But I'm sorry, that's all right, No, no, no,
Speaker 7: I do need to work on that. And that's what
Speaker 7: it is. I just have three amazing podcasts and time
Speaker 7: and they've been great this year. This year bro and
Speaker 7: also to this year was the first time I did
Speaker 7: my own voicing an animated series thanks to Bill Sherman
Speaker 7: over there. That was pretty cool. The Lookout, Yes, and
Speaker 7: this was the year that I had my first surgery
Speaker 7: and my whole damn life and got twenty eight damn
Speaker 7: objects taking out my body and now my stomach is flattering.
Speaker 7: I am healthier because of it.
Speaker 1: Gratulations, Wow, gratulations bro y'all y'all have been killing, aren't
Speaker 1: they busy? I don't think we've done a proper episode
Speaker 1: since the return of Sherman Showcase.
Speaker 7: That's true.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well, y'all really on the airplane?
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I was watch on airplane.
Speaker 7: Yes, I was watching on an airplane.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, man like this, this is one of the gems. Well,
Speaker 1: first of all, ye know now that we have a visual,
Speaker 1: as you guys can see, I think almost every episode,
Speaker 1: of course Love Supreme always has an episode of Soul
Speaker 1: Train playing around in the background.
Speaker 7: Wow, that's cool. I wish this is the first time
Speaker 7: you showed that.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, you know, I think I was playing ignorant,
Speaker 1: not knowing that we these episodes were actually going on
Speaker 1: the air. How are our numbers looking? Are we like
Speaker 1: in competition with the uh you know, the game now?
Speaker 7: We're still at our soft launch stage. First of all,
Speaker 7: so those who know, no, I mean I would I
Speaker 7: feel like cousin Jakes to say the official words of that.
Speaker 7: But yeah, we're still like, but we've been doing really
Speaker 7: good for our soft launching. Shout out to DJ Drama
Speaker 7: because he's been posting a lot from that episode. Yeah, okay, cool, cool,
Speaker 7: cool cool those Atlanta episodes.
Speaker 6: But that's it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you don't know Sherman Showcase show created by
Speaker 1: a former Tonight Show writers uh By Shir Sally O
Speaker 1: Dean and uh Diallo.
Speaker 7: Riddle guest the Quest Love Supreme.
Speaker 1: Absolute former guests of Quest Love Supreme, but really utilizing
Speaker 1: the versatile talents of our own fonts Tigolo and also
Speaker 1: give it a shout out to Zoe oth y'all did
Speaker 1: most of the music or all the music?
Speaker 6: Like, what's the process for this?
Speaker 2: We did pretty much most of them for this. I
Speaker 2: mean we've done most for the last like two seasons.
Speaker 2: But generally how it goes, they'll send us. Diallo will
Speaker 2: send me like a sheet of just kind of ideas
Speaker 2: or like prompts that they might have or whatever, and
Speaker 2: you know it might be you know, thirty joints and
Speaker 2: of that thirty, you know, me and Zoe sit down
Speaker 2: and we will just kind of figure out the ones
Speaker 2: that are most interesting to us, and Okay, I like
Speaker 2: this one, or Okay, we've never done this kind of
Speaker 2: song before, let's try this, or like we've never done
Speaker 2: an affrobeat song, let's try that, and you know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying. And then we just kind of just sit
Speaker 2: down and just go from there, and we just map
Speaker 2: it out and just do them. And I try to
Speaker 2: do when I do them, I do the vocal. I'll
Speaker 2: do like the demo vocal, but it's really just to
Speaker 2: give the actors an idea of what to do. But
Speaker 2: nine times out of ten they end up keeping my
Speaker 2: demo vocal on the joint.
Speaker 4: So the one that I just put up, YO, keep flowing.
Speaker 1: That was a punk dog dog that I put on
Speaker 1: Zoe's Joy Like I noticed it ninety six, but y'all
Speaker 1: went straight ninety one with that joint, like that is
Speaker 1: my favorite. That's my favorite joy Man.
Speaker 4: Thank you man, thank you.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 9: That one was super.
Speaker 4: That one was fun. That was we started. We did
Speaker 4: that one during COVID.
Speaker 2: Well shit, not that COVID over, but we did it
Speaker 2: early in the pandemic when COVID first hit, and so
Speaker 2: normally when I'm doing the stuff. For Shermans, I have
Speaker 2: the homies come over and just do it. You know,
Speaker 2: if I need female vocals, whatever, I just.
Speaker 4: Have like, you know, the homies pull up. If I
Speaker 4: need crowd, we'll all shot or whatever. But for COVID,
Speaker 4: we you know, everyone.
Speaker 1: Was I thought all those voices, all those voices rhymen, weren't.
Speaker 4: You Yeah they were me?
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, okay, And that's why because I couldn't call nobody.
Speaker 7: But they distorted or were you just doing voices?
Speaker 4: It was it was me just doing different voices.
Speaker 2: So I was just and I would put the mic
Speaker 2: like in the middle of the room and just kind
Speaker 2: of I put Q cards down because I'm imagining, like,
Speaker 2: all right, if it's four dudes in the group, of
Speaker 2: five dudes in the group, they're probably standing around the mic.
Speaker 2: So I just did put Q cards in like a
Speaker 2: semicircle around the joint, and every Q card I just
Speaker 2: did a different voice and then like panned it and
Speaker 2: you know, did all that to make it sound like joint.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I legit thought that, you know, y'all were It
Speaker 1: was so good. I actually started listening to Trends of
Speaker 1: Culture album again.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I walk through the Valley of the Skins.
Speaker 6: Wait, they're from North Carolina, right?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 2: No, no, that was jack food yao. But was the culture
Speaker 2: they were? I don't remember. They were fun but yeah.
Speaker 1: So well they better be from New York right right?
Speaker 4: But nah, but that was it, man. So that's normally
Speaker 4: how it goes.
Speaker 2: It just starts with the idea, will sit down and
Speaker 2: me and zoeld bang it out and I do the
Speaker 2: references and you know kind of you know, write, rearrange
Speaker 2: the songs if I need to whatever, and that's it.
Speaker 7: Shout out to you and Zoe because both of y'all
Speaker 7: two is shit, Like the LB's this year crazy, right,
Speaker 7: That's what I heard that Zoe came down crazy.
Speaker 4: Came crazy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he came down crazy. He's been doing really good.
Speaker 2: Shouts Zoe and and shout out to Sheer and Diello
Speaker 2: man just for letting us.
Speaker 4: Do us, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: They really they really are just guys that you know,
Speaker 2: they cut the check and get out the way, and
Speaker 2: that's like my favorite way to create.
Speaker 1: They really just yes, sir, cut the check, cut the check,
Speaker 1: get out of the way. Ah.
Speaker 7: So boss, how about your twenty twenty two.
Speaker 1: It's too surreal to talk about, man, because.
Speaker 7: It started crazy.
Speaker 1: It really feels like all that happened like three years ago,
Speaker 1: four years ago. It's not even eight months ago. So
Speaker 1: and that you know the fact that something weird happens
Speaker 1: like every five days that I'm just on a Steph
Speaker 1: Curry half court shot streak right now. So I will
Speaker 1: say though that probably of everything that you could imagine
Speaker 1: that happened to me or that could happen to a person,
Speaker 1: has happened to me. But I will probably say that,
Speaker 1: you know, and I'm really guarded and careful on how
Speaker 1: I don't want to be typecast as this guy or whatever.
Speaker 1: But you know, I'll say before that my thing was like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm the guy that's waiting for the light
Speaker 1: at the end of the tunnel. The most important thing
Speaker 1: that happened twenty twenty two is like I found myself,
Speaker 1: you know, and that whole like, yeah, man, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to trying to learn to love myself better
Speaker 1: than whatever it's happening now, like if it really happened
Speaker 1: in September and where like I'm owning the shit. I
Speaker 1: feel like a new person and like I'm generally happy
Speaker 1: and not like I feel guilty about being happy, like
Speaker 1: enthusiastically happy.
Speaker 6: So and I know it's.
Speaker 1: Weird to sort of declare that in some of the
Speaker 1: worst times in recent memory, but I really can't help like,
Speaker 1: I feel optimistic and happy.
Speaker 4: So what brought that about? How did you arrive at
Speaker 4: that place?
Speaker 1: You know, I'll say like a month it was the
Speaker 1: polar opposite of it, maybe three weeks after the oscars,
Speaker 1: and then I got COVID, So there was like a
Speaker 1: five week period where the exact opposite happened. And you know,
Speaker 1: and it's not even it has nothing to do with
Speaker 1: the slap, I think just in general, like this is
Speaker 1: how it was with my prim night. Like like any
Speaker 1: big event that you just you just like have high
Speaker 1: expectations for, it happens, and then when it's over, there's
Speaker 1: going to be a drop, you know, and you know,
Speaker 1: actually shout out to uh, I hope I can share this.
Speaker 1: Ezra Elderman, who is currently right now directing the Mammoth
Speaker 1: Prince documentary, he's the he's the gentleman that did the
Speaker 1: OJ documentary, The Firepark.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the five points, Oh wow, right, he.
Speaker 1: Won an Oscar for OJ in twenty fifteen, and right now,
Speaker 1: I think when he started. When he started, it was
Speaker 1: supposed to be like maybe a six to seven hour
Speaker 1: Prince documentary. He's definitely in the double digits of the
Speaker 1: hours right now. Like the Dance Dog. He might have
Speaker 1: Obama gray hair right now. That's how stressful it is,
Speaker 1: like getting the princess world. But he was really really
Speaker 1: there for me to like put it in context, because
Speaker 1: you know, the thing is.
Speaker 4: Is like once you win in context, you mean Gosa
Speaker 4: winning context.
Speaker 1: Well, because the thing was like the drop was so
Speaker 1: low like ten days later.
Speaker 6: That you know, it's it's real depression.
Speaker 1: And I don't want to especially now, especially when we're
Speaker 1: watching the antics of he who gets on my nerves
Speaker 1: right now, I don't like, I don't want to loosely
Speaker 1: like throw around like words like depression or you know
Speaker 1: that sort of thing. But yeah, there were moments where,
Speaker 1: like you know, I was balled up in a corner
Speaker 1: and fetal position, and my loved ones had to like,
Speaker 1: all right, you okay, man, like should I send you somewhere?
Speaker 1: You know, they sent me on my first vacation ever,
Speaker 1: like you know, I had to go to Mexico and
Speaker 1: just do nothing for a couple of weeks. But I
Speaker 1: talked to Ezra, and Ezra's like, you know, you're not
Speaker 1: the only person to go through this, Like literally, he
Speaker 1: just named me a list of other people that went
Speaker 1: through similar experiences. The amount of preparation and the amount
Speaker 1: that you put your body through and this this could
Speaker 1: also maybe explain the Monique situation as well, like anyone
Speaker 1: that dares enter the arena of trying to win an
Speaker 1: oscar and you have to give ten months of your life.
Speaker 1: And this could also explain the wheal thing, like when
Speaker 1: you get to the finish line, there's a level of
Speaker 1: anxiety that I can't I can't really explain.
Speaker 2: Because for the last ten months of your life, that's
Speaker 2: been your life and that was over.
Speaker 6: So yeah, and it's over. So it's and it's like
Speaker 6: what do you do?
Speaker 1: And you're managing expectations, who's happy for you?
Speaker 6: Is not happy and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: So I will say that for three weeks it was bad,
Speaker 1: and then I got it together. Well, once I got COVID,
Speaker 1: then I had other problems to deal with, because it's
Speaker 1: no joke living with like half an air pipe. There
Speaker 1: was one probably the most dangerous part about COVID. I
Speaker 1: know this is weird to say, but I was talking
Speaker 1: to a comedian friend of mine and I started laughing,
Speaker 1: but I was I was like gut laughing hard, and
Speaker 1: then I realized that I couldn't inhale, and that shit
Speaker 1: scared the shit out of me now only because I
Speaker 1: do like deep level. You know, I've been on my
Speaker 1: meditation and breathing exercise join. So there's a there's the
Speaker 1: kind of a breathing exercise called DMT exercise where it's
Speaker 1: like heavy, it's heavy breathing, but it's what Navy seals
Speaker 1: do to learn how to hold their breath for like
Speaker 1: three minutes. Yeah, dog Like I I was hold my
Speaker 1: breath for like fifty seconds before I could slowly in
Speaker 1: hell again. So, you know, once the COVID thing sort
Speaker 1: of replaced whatever anxiety because it's not like you're fighting
Speaker 1: for your life, but you're you're you're treating it seriously.
Speaker 1: And then that was sort of like my reset thing
Speaker 1: where I just stayed in bed for two weeks and
Speaker 1: you know, then it was July and then you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know it, it got way better. So that's
Speaker 1: my long drown drawn out thing. Was it the What was.
Speaker 2: It like going from cause you mentioned about it before,
Speaker 2: going from you know, the level of famous that you
Speaker 2: are to now another level of fame where you got
Speaker 2: people texting.
Speaker 6: It still feels the same, just a lot away.
Speaker 1: A lot of people that were alive during that era
Speaker 1: are just more vocal about it.
Speaker 6: I mean, at its weirdest, it'll be like, you know,
Speaker 6: Elton John.
Speaker 1: Will cold call you or Spielberg will cold call you.
Speaker 1: So I mean I definitely nuanced a lot more friendships
Speaker 1: than I ever have.
Speaker 2: But you know, and when you get those calls from
Speaker 2: those people, what do they say? Is it congratulations? Is
Speaker 2: it you know, more work they're offering?
Speaker 1: Like I meant, some of it is work. Some people
Speaker 1: like want to know, with a lot of pitch meetings.
Speaker 1: So right now, you know, I guess the general rule
Speaker 1: is if there's a press clipping about it, then I
Speaker 1: can talk about it. So right now I can only
Speaker 1: talk about sliding the family stone gotch. I don't necessarily
Speaker 1: talk about the producing things, so like the James Brown
Speaker 1: thing and the Descendant thing and all that stuff. I mean,
Speaker 1: producing isn't rubber stamping, Like I'm still like actively pounding
Speaker 1: the payment and campaigning and all that stuff. So I'm
Speaker 1: not rubber stamping like the producing part like most executive
Speaker 1: producers like, I just slap my name on it and
Speaker 1: we're good. So as far as what I'm doing, I've
Speaker 1: agreed to direct seven other films too, are scripted fiber documentaries.
Speaker 7: Okay, and what's the time period of that, sir?
Speaker 1: Just like a decade. That's a that's a decade.
Speaker 7: It's not not for him.
Speaker 1: It is, okay. So one of the films I have
Speaker 1: a code director, so that that will alleviate some of
Speaker 1: the the work. But I'll say that right now, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to accept anything else until these seven projects
Speaker 1: are done, and i'll say like twenty twenty eight, that'll
Speaker 1: be over.
Speaker 9: So just just.
Speaker 7: Because the fans wanted to know if there is a
Speaker 7: Root album.
Speaker 1: Roots, Okay, that's another shocker. Words I never thought i'd
Speaker 1: say in this lifetime. Shout out to funk Master Flex.
Speaker 1: So so basically, I believe the way that this thing started,
Speaker 1: which I was totally unaware about, was the catch in Griselda.
Speaker 1: Shout to Griselda from Buffalo, New York were sort of
Speaker 1: riffing about, you know, they haven't been feeling the love
Speaker 1: of fump Master Flex, who you know. I guess you
Speaker 1: could say that Griselda is kind of the gen Z
Speaker 1: version of Wu Tang and they you know, they've been
Speaker 1: doing numbers and you know they're they're a thing, but
Speaker 1: they still don't feel that love or whatever. Fum Master
Speaker 1: Flex could have went the normal route, which is, you know,
Speaker 1: start dissing the acts and then be from Broccoli and
Speaker 1: all that stuff and then whatever. It could have easily
Speaker 1: went there like fuck foot Mass, fuck Griselda. Instead, Master
Speaker 1: Flex said, I'll tell you what I heard you, and
Speaker 1: you know I heard your fan base, So tell you what.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you ten days to give me a
Speaker 1: song that I can fuck with and have it to
Speaker 1: me next Thursday.
Speaker 6: And he challenged them.
Speaker 1: They rose to the challenge, and then someone said, yo, Flex,
Speaker 1: you need to do this more often. So what Flex
Speaker 1: does is he calls out someone says, nas, I need
Speaker 1: a new song in ten days, okay, Fusta.
Speaker 6: So for all the older rappers that are like, oh,
Speaker 6: you don't.
Speaker 1: Support us, you don't support us, So I'm sitting on
Speaker 1: the sideline because you know, he's never played us like
Speaker 1: Tariq wasn't even acknowledged until that freestyle five years ago.
Speaker 1: So matter of fact, it was five days into it.
Speaker 1: People were like, y'are gonna have that Flex song ready?
Speaker 1: I'm just like, what Flex song? He's like, you know,
Speaker 1: he called y'all out five days ago and I was like, wait,
Speaker 1: what the thing is you? What you don't want to
Speaker 1: do is not meet his challenge, sou And five days
Speaker 1: we came up with a song that's actually fucking incredible,
Speaker 1: So you know we did. We did a song called
Speaker 1: miss Understood with Erica Badu and t R Whack. Did it.
Speaker 1: Did it in five days, co produced by our guy
Speaker 1: Joe Ron Bombay, And I guess Flex is forcing us
Speaker 1: now to have this album out by March.
Speaker 6: So what a song?
Speaker 7: What a song? Ato?
Speaker 6: I gave a cop?
Speaker 1: Well, not like you live in Philadelphia anymore.
Speaker 6: Friend keV has the has.
Speaker 7: That's all that matters, as long as he rocked.
Speaker 6: So it's it's a soft lunch.
Speaker 1: So we're we actually Steve and I worked on song
Speaker 1: number two today, so we're just we're just taking it
Speaker 1: one song a week and by March you will have
Speaker 1: end game.

Speaker 1: All Right, So this isn't a typical episode where we
Speaker 1: like grill the guests about their career whatever, so we'll
Speaker 1: we'll do an actual proper episode. This is more or
Speaker 1: less about how our twenty twenty two was.
Speaker 5: You know, we at the same time.
Speaker 7: I love that you, but I feel like you had
Speaker 7: a good twenty twenty two. Nobody knows you your personal business,
Speaker 7: but you know, at least work wise, still like things.
Speaker 6: Wait, do we have a bad twenty twenty two?
Speaker 5: Not?
Speaker 10: My twenty twenty two has been career wise great. M
Speaker 10: Like watching everything in the world has been, like I
Speaker 10: was gonna.
Speaker 1: Say, as a Chicago native, how does Chicago feel right now?
Speaker 5: Man?
Speaker 1: The whole town?
Speaker 5: Well, this is this is interesting.
Speaker 7: M hm, talk about it.
Speaker 10: I like the excited about me number one, like they
Speaker 10: like real, thank you, Yay. It's been It's been tough
Speaker 10: watching this spire of a thing because you know what
Speaker 10: it is. It's so weird watching somebody still he hates
Speaker 10: therapy so bad he won't get it for real. And
Speaker 10: I'm like, damn, he really is a person still hurting
Speaker 10: from his mom's death.
Speaker 5: And that's tough watching.
Speaker 10: You know, when I think about my special and I
Speaker 10: do a joke about my therapist asking me, do I
Speaker 10: think the wrong parent died?
Speaker 6: Right?
Speaker 10: I've been dealing with my honesty of what that feels like.
Speaker 5: It's actually tough watching somebody who.
Speaker 7: Hasn't oh oh.
Speaker 10: And man, it's deep because his is a little deeper
Speaker 10: than you know, somebody just passing away from cancer. Yeah,
Speaker 10: it's like, you know, we come out to the Hollywood
Speaker 10: and all this other stuff.
Speaker 5: The one thing I'm always careful about who else I
Speaker 5: expose this to.
Speaker 10: It's my dream, but I have to be careful who
Speaker 10: I exposed this to.
Speaker 4: They may not be equipped to handle it.
Speaker 6: And that could be your kids. Your spouse here.
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, right, and so you have to be very
Speaker 11: careful about where you at with it col you have
Speaker 11: in your environment and because it's just.
Speaker 10: So much, you know, I'm honest about that too, because well, yeah,
Speaker 10: it kind.
Speaker 5: Of hurts a little bit. That's somebody who we are
Speaker 5: from Chicago.
Speaker 10: It was this weird tell where all of us was
Speaker 10: coming up with whatever it feels he was doing right,
Speaker 10: and then he was like the first one to like
Speaker 10: become a light in that generation, a superstar, like superstar
Speaker 10: like comic came out. We talking about like a superstar. Yeah,
Speaker 10: and it was like, okay, cool, and you're doing it
Speaker 10: being yourself.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you still you know game bangers with your nerve,
Speaker 5: you know, like it's just a different and so all.
Speaker 10: Of us is like yes.
Speaker 5: And so for my I had some cards.
Speaker 10: Printed that the Kanye comedy That's what I called myself.
Speaker 5: So it's breaking my heart because I'm watching something spiral
Speaker 5: in a way.
Speaker 12: Well, I'm like, also, I don't listen to crazy ass
Speaker 12: people and that crazy uncle's crazy cuz they're saying all
Speaker 12: types of shit at Thanksgiving at Christmas and I don't
Speaker 12: take a heart to that.
Speaker 5: I'd be like cool anyway.
Speaker 10: Like for me, I haven't like taken it in in
Speaker 10: this way where it's like bothered me, where it affects
Speaker 10: me personally. But it's like, damn dude, like when he
Speaker 10: you know this was and I ain't never talked about this,
Speaker 10: so y'all getting this me talking about it? Said that
Speaker 10: like when he brought up George Floyd and I saw
Speaker 10: the same man cry about being a black dad. And
Speaker 10: they're trying to take away my black children and the
Speaker 10: black dad and the black children and the black black
Speaker 10: black black And you don't think about that little girl
Speaker 10: who lost her father the way she did.
Speaker 5: It's disgusting to me you say all that, and you.
Speaker 12: Don't you like recreating what you said happened just to
Speaker 12: make a point.
Speaker 4: That's weird.
Speaker 7: But how about this one though, too, to add to
Speaker 7: your to your complexities, because this is the last complexity
Speaker 7: for me because I have a lot of relatives that
Speaker 7: are managing bipolar right m So I have to ask
Speaker 7: my relatives, excuse me, cousin, is it am I still
Speaker 7: supposed to be letting that be a reason? Like in
Speaker 7: my head like this, it just seems like it's it's
Speaker 7: so untrend and it's so tailored, and those relatives saying
Speaker 7: to me, yes, you still should be considering that this
Speaker 7: is mental illness, which is like, oh like and this
Speaker 7: is something that you know, we really say. First of all,
Speaker 7: black people don't even talk about mental illness, as you said.
Speaker 7: You literally just said crazy crazy, crazy, And that's been
Speaker 7: the problem with us for the law guess.
Speaker 5: But but here we go.
Speaker 10: You're right, I go to therapy every Tuesday. I've dealt
Speaker 10: with my stuff because I know I'm not perfect. Yeah, like,
Speaker 10: even when you think about them, right, we still think
Speaker 10: about like how money changes everything.
Speaker 7: That too, access power, O God, and.
Speaker 10: Kanye's a male. Yeah, they took Britney spears. They like
Speaker 10: putting the like how to have this man ain't in
Speaker 10: the conservation ship.
Speaker 7: To me, it's not considered mental illness. That's why, because
Speaker 7: I think people are still kind of like, na, he's
Speaker 7: just he does an asshole. He just mean, he just
Speaker 7: does know.
Speaker 2: And everybody when they when they made the voice announcement,
Speaker 2: well you know about everybody was jumping up down over
Speaker 2: two hundred thousand or whatever. I was like, bro, the
Speaker 2: fact that he got joint custody of the kids, Like
Speaker 2: that's right when like, yeah, I mean, bruh, how did.
Speaker 7: You get that?
Speaker 1: I was going to say, yeah, my favorite part of
Speaker 1: your special was the way that you were open and
Speaker 1: transparent and talking about going to therapy, which you know,
Speaker 1: of course, especially for people of color, Like we've been
Speaker 1: really really guarded about that, you know. I mean I've
Speaker 1: been doing it for seriously for like nine to ten years,
Speaker 1: at least on a consistent, everyday basis. I mean I've
Speaker 1: been doing it for almost twenty years, but at least
Speaker 1: on this consistent basis, weekly basis. For you, what was
Speaker 1: the moment that made you feel comfortable and really sharing.
Speaker 10: That, you know, like I talked about it especially, and
Speaker 10: it's so crazy in comedy, you know, you make things funny,
Speaker 10: which is true.
Speaker 5: The funny thing is I do I could be funny
Speaker 5: when I'm serious, right right, People like that.
Speaker 10: That's but I'm like nah, I said, in this house,
Speaker 10: I had a panic attack, and that's why I was
Speaker 10: filming something.
Speaker 5: And I didn't know what. I'd never had one before.
Speaker 4: What happened physically, what, I don't even know it.
Speaker 10: First, I think my assistant, I wish you was here,
Speaker 10: she'd tell you. It was building up it'd be I
Speaker 10: was having a little emotional.
Speaker 5: Thing, but I kept being able to survive. Right, wake up,
Speaker 5: It'll be cool.
Speaker 10: No, I'm just crying as.
Speaker 5: Well as No.
Speaker 10: I was bothered and I didn't know why I was.
Speaker 10: And I was sitting on these stairs crying hysterically, laid forward.
Speaker 10: We told them we were sick. I was sick, and
Speaker 10: I'm like, I'm not sick. I am sick actually because
Speaker 10: I can't work today, I was like, what's wrong with me?
Speaker 10: What's Everything is great, everything's going well, Like why am
Speaker 10: I still having this pain?
Speaker 5: What is this?
Speaker 10: And when I said with my therapist, like she's smart too,
Speaker 10: because she let me and I'm open, I've been I'll
Speaker 10: be in that my therapy session start just with me
Speaker 10: saying you know, it was cool and it's gone, like
Speaker 10: I'll just be going like damn, that's what happened. Because
Speaker 10: and so like we did that, and she kept seeing
Speaker 10: me you have this strain of or be very hesitant
Speaker 10: about mentioning my mom. It was like little stuff I'll
Speaker 10: do like.
Speaker 5: Like she's like.
Speaker 10: And then when she asked me, do I think the
Speaker 10: wrong parent died? M was such a powerful thing, and
Speaker 10: I was like, what you excuse me. My parents are
Speaker 10: a happy black couple. It was together the whole time.
Speaker 10: I have both my parents. That was beautiful. Do you
Speaker 10: think the wrong parent died? And then we got into
Speaker 10: this deep conversation about another thing about my dad has
Speaker 10: been dope the whole time. But then I started realizing
Speaker 10: what he went through, actually through this session about how
Speaker 10: we were all raised as black men and our families
Speaker 10: to not show certain emotions.
Speaker 5: I realized, like at the even.
Speaker 10: Talking to cousins about how my dad was kind of
Speaker 10: picked on for being artsy m come on these other
Speaker 10: doing cocaine and kicking it. This nigga was drawn and
Speaker 10: playing fucking the horn.
Speaker 1: I'm the artist of the family. Yeah, my cousins weren't that.
Speaker 1: You know. I was a bitch ass nigga, Like.
Speaker 10: He was trying to teach me to be a little
Speaker 10: tougher than he was, you know, other arts. Motherfucker too.
Speaker 10: He started playing the drums at church when I was six.
Speaker 10: I was watching the drum and like naturally just learned,
Speaker 10: like I just started playing with that after the church
Speaker 10: and like mom was like, you can play the drums,
Speaker 10: and I started playing for the childrens.
Speaker 5: Squad and like what I understood for my dad was.
Speaker 10: Like damn, damn ah, and he.
Speaker 5: Like when I tell you my dad art wise, we
Speaker 5: to my music.
Speaker 10: One thing the brother would he made these models of
Speaker 10: like war renditions, and sure like he he was so talented.
Speaker 10: We made Christmas on him as every year I poor
Speaker 10: ass family had broker asked Christians think cause we made
Speaker 10: our own order. So for like twenty years in all
Speaker 10: the trade was all the ship we made it. It
Speaker 10: reineddew with one arm and all types of shit in
Speaker 10: therapy in a weird way, when I remember being angry
Speaker 10: at him for a second because he was he used
Speaker 10: to talk killing shit every time I did something different.
Speaker 5: But then it was two things that happened.
Speaker 10: Somebody in his job one day was like, man, your
Speaker 10: dad talk about you all the time, Like no, he don't, no, no,
Speaker 10: he does.
Speaker 5: Actually he passed up your flyers for the comedy shows.
Speaker 4: He's proud.
Speaker 5: He never he never told me talk a me like that.
Speaker 10: And my mama would tell me, like, your dad, he's
Speaker 10: so proud of you, but he never said it.
Speaker 5: That's because he never heard it.
Speaker 10: And I'm like, damn, man, I bad and his father
Speaker 10: is he still alive or is it he is? But
Speaker 10: he's like he's going through like slight dimension and that's tough.
Speaker 10: And so this is the crazy part. I got my
Speaker 10: dad in this amazing facility taking care of him because
Speaker 10: when he was going through it and me and my
Speaker 10: brother ain't know what to do with this. At first,
Speaker 10: he was just like showing up at the old house
Speaker 10: and the police happened to be nice. Actually because he
Speaker 10: showed up at the crib. It's a whole other family.
Speaker 5: Than they rebuilt in. And you know they didn't gentrif neighbor.
Speaker 5: We grew up here. Oh wow, he's like Nancy showing up.
Speaker 10: And then even for like recently, like a year ago,
Speaker 10: we was all at the event for the family and
Speaker 10: he was like waiting for my mother to come get him,
Speaker 10: and I'm like, no, man, she ain't. And that's that shit.
Speaker 5: Is tough, yo.
Speaker 7: That tribe is big. Well, you know that this tribe
Speaker 7: is large of people around our age dealing with parents
Speaker 7: like this, like we need to make sure we continue
Speaker 7: to talk to each other and stuff. It ain't easy.
Speaker 7: It's harder on the caretakers. I took care of Grandma
Speaker 7: with dementia and Alzheimer's, so you got to take care
Speaker 7: of self because it's harder on the cads.
Speaker 10: I love my brother for what he's doing. He's my brother,
Speaker 10: is a baby, and I'm so proud of him. He
Speaker 10: stepped up. We're sibling well right, well, like you know,
Speaker 10: our papers and shit, but that nigga do the day
Speaker 10: today and I think that's where like how many comes
Speaker 10: in at right. I'm already thinking about my next special

Speaker 10: more personal where I talk about.
Speaker 5: All this shit and the Gerard challenged me with that too.

Speaker 2: gives credits to the Black Angels, like vocals by the
Speaker 2: Black Angel that was Dave hol.
Speaker 7: Oh my god, you're not.
Speaker 4: I think that's some moment.
Speaker 2: I know it's gonna keep your head up, but I'm
Speaker 2: almost certain Wikipedia says yes, oh okay, there.

Speaker 10: was like, this is the greatest I always see the people.
Speaker 5: It was in LA.
Speaker 10: If it was any other city like Memphis or Cleveland, dude,
Speaker 10: that would have ended way crazy.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 14: And Lee literally was watching that on stage while they
Speaker 14: all fight like this because there was a bunch of
Speaker 14: young people that all the older people my age that
Speaker 14: know the groups from them because we was on the back,
Speaker 14: the kids is.
Speaker 5: Up front, and they was watching it like it was
Speaker 5: a YouTube video.
Speaker 1: If you want to use this platform right now to
Speaker 1: set it straight because I watched it. I absolutely did
Speaker 1: think that you were saying anything disparaging about three six Mafia.
Speaker 5: You meant need it.
Speaker 1: You made it absolutely explicitly clear that you were a
Speaker 1: fan of theirs, and you know you didn't just them.
Speaker 5: I love that you said that, but we gotta realize, right,
Speaker 5: these are.
Speaker 1: Like right they said in their ways based off the
Speaker 1: fight too.
Speaker 5: The crews don't do what they gonna do.
Speaker 10: This is one of those crews with like only three
Speaker 10: people or four people did something and the.
Speaker 5: Other eighty niggas.
Speaker 10: Yeah, as a comic, I'm like stop and biting me
Speaker 10: to ship because if I keep seeing these niggas doing
Speaker 10: this weird shit, I don't know how to not say
Speaker 10: shit right right and just being out like look, man, yeah,
Speaker 10: come on now.
Speaker 1: You know I'm fine with trauma, but I also feel
Speaker 1: like there's a responsibility like I can't but so long,
Speaker 1: get on this platform and tell y'all like you know,
Speaker 1: I'm working on myself and da da like I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do it. I'm finna do it. I'm trying, I'm about
Speaker 1: to do it. Like there there has to be a
Speaker 1: point where you just jump in the pool and just.
Speaker 9: Do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, of course.
Speaker 5: Many people scared. So many people are scared to really
Speaker 5: deal with really what hurts them.
Speaker 1: You nailed that because you said emotions and the thing
Speaker 1: you know, and I just I've explained on the show
Speaker 1: that since slavery, African Americans have not been allowed by
Speaker 1: law to express any emotions. If you angry, you're gonna
Speaker 1: get lashes. If you start crying, you better not cry
Speaker 1: if I give you something to cry about em And
Speaker 1: if you're happy, then you just a bitch, asked motherfucker,
Speaker 1: And that's like questioning your manhood. So as a result,
Speaker 1: again we invent it.
Speaker 7: Cool.
Speaker 1: Cool is the idea of holding emotions back. And black
Speaker 1: people invented cool. So we made and just like soul food,
Speaker 1: like we cool, we may not have an emotion sexy.
Speaker 1: Oh he cool man, he's just laid back, you know,
Speaker 1: he's mysterious. Cool is not being happy, not being sad,
Speaker 1: not being angry. It's just laying in the cut. And
Speaker 1: but it affects you. You know it affected me because shit,
Speaker 1: I was struggling with lymphoedema for twenty years, so all
Speaker 1: those tears I didn't cry them. Shit swelled up in
Speaker 1: my legs. So I finally had to do something about
Speaker 1: it this year. But basically that's the thing, like since slavery,
Speaker 1: that's epigenetics. That's what I'm talking about, epigenetics, Like since slavery,
Speaker 1: we have not been able to express ourselves.
Speaker 10: And you know, well think about that with education too,
Speaker 10: right when you're thinking about it, Like I think it
Speaker 10: wout being picked on in school for just knowing a
Speaker 10: little more being smart.
Speaker 5: Well, because we we were it was illegal for us to.
Speaker 4: Read, yes, right, so knowledge it was a liability like
Speaker 4: being and.
Speaker 10: They would beat you for literally having a book in
Speaker 10: your hand.
Speaker 5: We just still we're still literally recovering from things that
Speaker 5: that's traumatically instilled in us. And I feel like I love.
Speaker 10: The fact that we're the first generation to like me
Speaker 10: and my girlfriend were just talking before I got here
Speaker 10: to talk to her, like I give myself for real,
Speaker 10: for real or sometimes like twenty minutes like complain, you
Speaker 10: know what I'm saying, Like for real, I give myself,
Speaker 10: like just a hard twenty and then think about the
Speaker 10: realistic part of okay, brother, you didn't.
Speaker 5: Got through this before orlax, it's gonna be okay.
Speaker 10: Yeah, because I don't want to sit in it no more.
Speaker 10: And I realized a lot of my family, my friends,
Speaker 10: they sitting, They sit in pain just because we wasn't permitted.
Speaker 5: To figure out how to get out of that. We
Speaker 5: were thought to deal with pain, not recover from it.
Speaker 1: Not only that, but you know we're gonna sell sooth
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna need a drink, I need to smoke something,
Speaker 1: I need to funck something. I might need to cut something,
Speaker 1: mutilate something, eat something, you eat something. Yeah, there's there's
Speaker 1: ways to sell soothe, and which is why you know
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't make it to.
Speaker 6: Seventy five eighty.
Speaker 7: Sometimes you need a little sel hey.
Speaker 1: Man, you know what I feel like the most of
Speaker 1: the way of the show is always me like and Fonte,
Speaker 1: But what to say at this moment?
Speaker 6: You know, like like what Steve.
Speaker 1: Bill, let's raising two girls? Bill talk about you raising? Like,
Speaker 1: how do you deal with stress? You you've had some divorces,
Speaker 1: you you're raising an angel on the devil.
Speaker 7: Still you can't say that. They can say that, don't.
Speaker 3: I make them run around the house until they get
Speaker 3: real tired. And I laugh at him it's all my game.
Speaker 3: I don't kidding.
Speaker 1: I don't know they kids, they suck every once in
Speaker 1: a while. Whatever, But like Stephen, Bill, do y'all do
Speaker 1: therapy or like.
Speaker 3: Oh, well there, my mom is a psychoanalyst. I've been
Speaker 3: in therapy for a long time.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, oh but like panic Jamaican, Your Jamaican
Speaker 1: mom is just no, my real mom, not my stepmother,
Speaker 1: my Jamacon step real want to hear a good story.
Speaker 1: So my dad, my parents got.
Speaker 3: My parents got divorced when I was in my mid twenties,
Speaker 3: and my dad married his his like head nurse, my
Speaker 3: dad's doctor, and she's a Jamaican woman. And so my
Speaker 3: stepmother is Jamaican. And to add on to that, uh,
Speaker 3: there really isn't anything else. And that's just a funny
Speaker 3: fucking story. My stepmather is Jamaica. There you go.
Speaker 6: Actually I.
Speaker 1: Don't even properly introduced Reil to everyone in the room.
Speaker 1: So Bill Bill Sherman is, well, maybe have you done
Speaker 1: Sesame Street before? Real, Reil's not been on the show yet.
Speaker 10: Wow, why happened?
Speaker 1: Well, Real, we can fix that. I mean, just so basically,
Speaker 1: you want when you want to go on Sesame Street,
Speaker 1: Bill Sherman's you got amongst amongst other.
Speaker 6: Shows, But that's his calling card.
Speaker 5: He Bill, Bill is a man, But Bill I want
Speaker 5: to be on.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well we'll see what we can do.
Speaker 5: Damn, that's not I wish.
Speaker 15: I wish I had any cloud like at all, because
Speaker 15: I was like, I don't.
Speaker 1: I have none. But I appreciate that you think I do.
Speaker 1: I really appreciate that.
Speaker 7: You say Bill is like real time, just like Steal,
Speaker 7: like Bill you are? You are, aren't your music director
Speaker 7: of Salame Street. I always say that, is that wrong?
Speaker 1: I am, but I'm freelanced, so you know how that goes.
Speaker 7: There's a whole one of his jobs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got jobs, jobs like Questlove got jobs like
Speaker 1: seventeen different jobs.
Speaker 6: It was a second way from me.
Speaker 1: Egot right, you have a Tony, you have a Grammy,
Speaker 1: you have an Emmy I do, and you're working on
Speaker 1: your Oscar.
Speaker 3: I am one day I'll be quest Love Thompson and
Speaker 3: I'll win Emmys for making documentaries about black music vestivals.
Speaker 5: You should have all this stuff in your background.
Speaker 15: I was thinking about that because there's awards behind you,
Speaker 15: I believe, And I was just like, fuck, it the
Speaker 15: next time we do this. I just got to hang
Speaker 15: them from the ceiling and make a necklace or do
Speaker 15: whatever the fuck I do.
Speaker 3: I don't I have them. They're somewhere there.
Speaker 1: You go. See that's the next level ship.
Speaker 6: Look at that MTV movie Popcorn. I see it nice.
Speaker 1: I mean, where's your grammy at you know what it's
Speaker 1: it's in. All the awards are are in my fame corner.
Speaker 1: I had a function way. I had a function way expert.
Speaker 6: After after I saw this thing, I don't.
Speaker 7: Like it when you do that, make me say it again.
Speaker 7: He was an expert.
Speaker 1: This this is what I saw the design. I saw
Speaker 1: the design of David Geffen's crib and successful people. I'm
Speaker 1: a person that I need good energy. I need to
Speaker 1: wake up in the morning feeling good about myself. And
Speaker 1: you know previously, I mean like you've been in many
Speaker 1: houses of mine and you see how cluttered and fucked
Speaker 1: up my house has been.
Speaker 5: I have.
Speaker 1: Congratulations. That is that is reflective of a person's life.
Speaker 1: So yes, I I there's there's there's a woman who
Speaker 1: is like she is like one of the top world
Speaker 1: function way experts. She travels the globe, travels she travels
Speaker 1: all right, it's shaking it all right. No, but that's
Speaker 1: she basically travels to offices too, you know, and basically
Speaker 1: reads the energy of the room and says, okay, you
Speaker 1: know various quarters of degrees and you know I had
Speaker 1: to do it.
Speaker 5: So is that the same?
Speaker 10: So I had a person that's like a clutter specialist, Like, yeah,
Speaker 10: that's different to organize.
Speaker 1: She's not a clutter specialist, but I mean she deals
Speaker 1: with functual energy, and I'm just that feels so different.
Speaker 1: The clutter specialists like somebody's like hold on, hold on.
Speaker 15: The cutter specialist goes to the container store and gets
Speaker 15: you the right goddam containers. The factual person like fucking
Speaker 15: like goes like criss cross apple sauce, reads the room,
Speaker 15: gets in the vibe, and then moves the piece of
Speaker 15: furniture and collects her money, goes tou home.
Speaker 1: Not this is what those CDs?
Speaker 5: Yes, everything perfectly?
Speaker 1: Is it alphabetical or autobiographical?
Speaker 7: That don't make no sense?
Speaker 9: What you just said?
Speaker 5: Yeah, why did you even that?
Speaker 1: Was a long silen All right, Look, can we just
Speaker 1: go in the circle and just say what we would
Speaker 1: like our twenty twenty three to be like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: skip the albums and it's a shame we didn't get
Speaker 1: to talk about renaissance or I don't even know was
Speaker 1: there was there a movie that was was amazing? What
Speaker 1: was kind of shed a tear?
Speaker 6: I shed a tear at Black Panther.
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, no spoilers, Okay, I'm.
Speaker 5: Like, I like Woman King too, Leman King, Thank.
Speaker 4: You, Woman King. I gotta watch that.
Speaker 7: Woman King was amazing. Black women have nether skins never
Speaker 7: looked so glowing. It was more to the movie. But
Speaker 7: I'm just saying, no light, no lighting has ever lit
Speaker 7: up brown skin people like Woman King.
Speaker 4: I'm just I finally watched I frod watch Everything Everywhere
Speaker 4: all at once. Other night, I liked it.
Speaker 5: It was.
Speaker 6: How'd you feel like?
Speaker 1: That's my favorite movie of the year? Now I did
Speaker 1: the opposite of Fante. I've watched it fifteen times.
Speaker 2: Michelle william Shelle No, No, no, No, Michelle Yo is
Speaker 2: upseting on Michelle Yo.
Speaker 6: I predict that it's going when the Oscar it's I
Speaker 6: bet she.
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna win, probably win Best Picture, but
Speaker 2: I think your girl gonna get it.
Speaker 6: Jamie Lee Curtis will win Best Supporting Actors.
Speaker 2: J okay, yeah, she's in it, and I think your girl,
Speaker 2: uh Kate Blanchet is gonna win Fatar for Best Actress.
Speaker 1: I will say, what what fan take was for me
Speaker 1: last year? Everything all at once was for me this year.
Speaker 1: But you know I already told you a microdos.
Speaker 3: So I mean, what's the between your microdosing and and
Speaker 3: your fang shwingg what's the correlation between your microdosing and
Speaker 3: your fang shwing?
Speaker 1: Because I you know, I didn't I didn't know how
Speaker 1: to cry. And like, seriously, when I talk about lymphidema
Speaker 1: to be I'll say a typical moment between between nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety seven and June of this year, I'm basically when
Speaker 1: I wake up in the morning, I might have forty
Speaker 1: pounds of extra water weight on me. I might have
Speaker 1: eight pounds of extra water, like depending on what the
Speaker 1: day is, what the emotional thing is, what the what
Speaker 1: the air air the flight is. But you know, some
Speaker 1: days I will look like the michelin man. That's why
Speaker 1: when you google photos, like you're like, oh man, meer
Speaker 1: put a lot of weight on it. And then some
Speaker 1: days I'm skinny and some days I'm big and some
Speaker 1: day that's LYMPHI deema and that's because at that I
Speaker 1: got it. I got it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's time what it is?
Speaker 1: I think I definitely lived in a you better not
Speaker 1: cry before I give you someone to cry about, Like
Speaker 1: I was really sensitive about when I was talking about
Speaker 1: the bitch ass niggas shit, you know, always crying to
Speaker 1: your mom, mama's boy.
Speaker 6: That sort of thing.
Speaker 1: So I learned, kind of like at fourteen, never cry.
Speaker 1: So I'll say that when I started heavy in therapy
Speaker 1: and I said, you know, someone asked like, when was
Speaker 1: the last time I cried? I was like, well, maybe
Speaker 1: I cried like ten or eleven times in the last decade.
Speaker 1: I thought that was some normal shit. And the person
Speaker 1: was like, that's basically like you telling this that you
Speaker 1: only urinated ten times in the last ten years. That's
Speaker 1: what that feels like. And I didn't realize that was
Speaker 1: such an odd thing. I thought the average person maybe
Speaker 1: cries like once a year. And so once I decided
Speaker 1: I'm gonna learn how to get angry. I don't you
Speaker 1: know me. I want everybody to love me. I'm agreeable,
Speaker 1: Like my last fistfight, my only fist fight, in life
Speaker 1: was like with Tarik back in ninety four. I'm fifty
Speaker 1: one years old. I only had one fist fight in
Speaker 1: my life.
Speaker 6: Aw, that's because I'd.
Speaker 1: Rather be agreeable, so I get angry by a lot
Speaker 1: of things. But you guys also know there's another side
Speaker 1: of me where I might be passive aggressive, you know,
Speaker 1: and no, like, there's nothing worse in the world than
Speaker 1: a passive aggressive person. I'd rather you just directly say
Speaker 1: what's wrong with you? Like, I hate passive aggressive people.
Speaker 1: But I also know that because I'm afraid to show emotion, anger, sadness,
Speaker 1: all that stuff. So when I started microdosing that instantly
Speaker 1: water just comes out. I won't even say it's not
Speaker 1: even like I'm sad, Like basically I'll say, like maybe
Speaker 1: half a pint of water just comes out automatically. So
Speaker 1: it's almost like another version of water pills, you like
Speaker 1: when you have water pills and you just urinated away
Speaker 1: or whatever. That's kind of what it is. It's not
Speaker 1: as extreme as it was when I was first doing it,
Speaker 1: like I started like early twenty twenty. Now I'm you know,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm in touch with my emotions. I can I've
Speaker 1: expressed anger. I've cried without you know, so that's why
Speaker 1: I do it.
Speaker 4: I feel you brother.
Speaker 5: Do you you smoke?
Speaker 4: You do shrooms? Like, what's what's your want?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 4: You drink? Drink a little bit.
Speaker 5: I'm a simper, but no I couldn't.
Speaker 10: I'm gonna tell you some funny like only on vacation
Speaker 10: is when I do like edibles mm hm, because when
Speaker 10: I do that, I don't know any better about how
Speaker 10: much dosage I should take.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's hard sometimes, man.
Speaker 5: So I remember like we wasn Tego. You know, I
Speaker 5: was either the hot tails the night before. I'm just
Speaker 5: eating all the candy, like give it a boat. Oh no, man,
Speaker 5: and I woke up. It is the crazy th I
Speaker 5: sold a show that day on Zoom. I was so
Speaker 5: fucking hot. Nobody ship, you know. I felt like the
Speaker 5: floor kept going up and down, but I was so entertaining.
Speaker 5: It's like they bought it in the real Yeah. I
Speaker 5: was like, yeah, what matter? It's like, yo, you're okay?
Speaker 5: Like I mean they bone it, doe, you lose your ship? Yeah,
Speaker 5: Like like dude, I'm high as fuck. I like forty
Speaker 5: gummy bears. I don't think I them all like it.
Speaker 5: Like I was like hot. It's like I was Jesus,
Speaker 5: but I was vacation, so it wasn't terrible, you know
Speaker 5: what I mean.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not that extreme. The keyword is microdoes, so
Speaker 1: like I'm I'm talking like I'm talking like five to
Speaker 1: ten like Cypress sill levels like they do two hundred
Speaker 1: milligrams and yeah, sure, Like well, I'm just saying.
Speaker 7: Like have we like Okay, when you say micro doves,
Speaker 7: you just mean it could be a variety. I got in.
Speaker 10: General the second time I happened real quick last year,
Speaker 10: shut up, yes, go ahead, I was.
Speaker 5: I was at Eric and so we had once again
Speaker 5: the edibles.
Speaker 10: Yo, I did like six comedy clubs, just showed the
Speaker 10: fuck up, went on stage, rocked all that ship, showed
Speaker 10: up at somebody's birthday party, kept that ship whatever it was.
Speaker 5: And next everybody's like, dude, like fucking amazing last night.
Speaker 5: And I remember fully dressed, sitting on my couch like
Speaker 5: sitting up like what the funk happened last crushing?
Speaker 10: Right, You're like, yo, you was like free step and
Speaker 10: you left like you didn't even when you said that's
Speaker 10: my time, you walked out and just walked out the building.
Speaker 5: You didn't like see bad of nobody. You just kept going.
Speaker 10: I went to like six comedy clubs randomly, Wow, and
Speaker 10: just kept fucking performing.
Speaker 5: Like the Lunacuite.
Speaker 6: You don't have any defenses up.
Speaker 1: He was living in your heart.
Speaker 6: Look the last question, what do we want?
Speaker 1: For twenty twenty three?
Speaker 7: They added rabbit holes on quest Suppress.
Speaker 6: But that's what makes it fun.
Speaker 5: It is.
Speaker 6: Apologies, said Jake Man. Jake, I really appreciate cousin.
Speaker 5: Y'all.
Speaker 7: Jake put together this nice little prep. She not but
Speaker 7: you railed. But you were just supposed to be hearing
Speaker 7: it and enjoy all the things. We was gonna say two,
Speaker 7: but you.
Speaker 1: Know, we could do a post mortem in January.
Speaker 7: Bill said it. Bill already said it was ambitious anyway,
Speaker 7: So it was.
Speaker 1: I felt like it had some politics on it. It's
Speaker 1: non politics. It's amazing. A lot happened in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 7: At some point I wanted to go. Atlanta was a
Speaker 7: great show this year, y'all, Like the best you want TV.
Speaker 1: That I feel like was we finally got back together
Speaker 1: in person, so we we got outside.
Speaker 4: That was we came outside.
Speaker 7: Yeah, oh you're talking about us Atlanta I met, I
Speaker 7: actually met. The TV show.
Speaker 5: I Love Yeah Chocolate episode is one of my favorite. Man.
Speaker 7: Listen, mister Jacqueline, you know the Goofy episode, like you
Speaker 7: ain't gonna tell me.
Speaker 10: That wasn't real?
Speaker 5: That was I just stopped. I had to pause it
Speaker 5: maybe and look it up. All right, man, it happened.
Speaker 4: They bodied that ship for real.
Speaker 7: I'm sorry, mirror, but no, I was.
Speaker 5: It was brilliant.
Speaker 7: They did a mockumentary on Goofy and his relation to
Speaker 7: being a black man that it was like, what the
Speaker 7: fuck is going on?
Speaker 5: But it was.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was hilarious. I like the way they ended
Speaker 4: the show. I thought they ended it well.
Speaker 7: It's very I felt kind of soprano asque, but yeah,
Speaker 7: they always want more. It's a wrap.
Speaker 5: Nothing nothing in this perfect that's true? Is it true?
Speaker 4: The only the only show it ended perfectly? I think.
Speaker 4: I think six Feet under ended perfectly.
Speaker 7: That he took it back, I got it the ending
Speaker 7: of series.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, six feet Underdogs, I hate I hate to
Speaker 1: leave it on their finger like this what I and
Speaker 1: I wrote about this in my last book. I have
Speaker 1: a problem with penultimates in the final chapter. Thus, there's
Speaker 1: probably every series with the exception of the Wire in
Speaker 1: the Sopranos, every major cities, I will not watch the
Speaker 1: last two episodes because I don't like Goodbye.
Speaker 7: So I understand as I felt with Atlanta. Atlanta felt
Speaker 7: like that it was like, fuck, this is it. I mean,
Speaker 7: I mean, I appreciate, thank y'all for y'all service.
Speaker 1: Only watched it by accident because other people were in
Speaker 1: the room watching it, So I like watched it. But
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have watched the last episode of Atlanta just
Speaker 1: because you know, I don't.
Speaker 5: It's so funny, you say, because it is. It's weird.
Speaker 5: But one thing I'll be scared of with with black
Speaker 5: shows is they always leave with an empty house, right,
Speaker 5: there's always something just looking around it's like what the fuck?
Speaker 7: And then walking off stage and then you never know that.
Speaker 1: Was actually the Carmichael Show. I know, I see the
Speaker 1: the DC words, the textables. But even with the Carmichael Show,
Speaker 1: like because I didn't want to watch, I still even
Speaker 1: watched the last episode of The Carmichael Show.
Speaker 5: You should, but we didn't know we was ending. So
Speaker 5: that's the thing, is thatactly still an open book. I
Speaker 5: tell Gerond all the time. We should do one of
Speaker 5: those weird Saved by the Bill movie.
Speaker 7: Y y'all gotta do something that couldn't have been the
Speaker 7: final chapter, especially now I love this now that y'all
Speaker 7: have both like evolved and so.
Speaker 5: Like, y'all gotta get we should we should do a movie.
Speaker 5: And Bobby and Keisha is getting remarried and this is
Speaker 5: what the fuck.
Speaker 7: But it's been interrupt with her schedule on her that show,
Speaker 7: because I like, I watched her on her other show,
Speaker 7: the actress from the Carmichael Show that oh yeah, she's
Speaker 7: she's on another dope show. So I was like, don't
Speaker 7: take away from her schedule on other four Black Girls show.
Speaker 5: I thought, it's Harlem, run the Worst, run the world
Speaker 5: the World.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, run the world.
Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, I forgot all right, So nobody wants to
Speaker 6: do it.
Speaker 1: Let's do it.
Speaker 7: No, let's do it, let's do it.
Speaker 6: What's your twenty twenty three?
Speaker 7: Like, No, I didn't mean I wanted to start first.
Speaker 7: I just meant we should do it my twenty twenty three.
Speaker 6: Okay, so it's almost like we never did this podcast before.
Speaker 7: What does my twenty twenty three look like? Probably going
Speaker 7: back to that question that you asked me about and
Speaker 7: what I should have been doing in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 7: I got to work on my own projects and I'm yeah, yeah,
Speaker 7: step into.
Speaker 6: Your comedy do it? Yeah, all right on paid bill.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think, just trying to push the envelope, trying
Speaker 1: to do something different. I don't know, is there anything after?
Speaker 1: I mean, you did and Juliet did, which is great.
Speaker 1: Uh is there a Hamilton sequel Hamoton? That's terrible? You done?
Speaker 7: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see. I don't know.

Speaker 2: Oh twenty twenty three. I think just uh we'll finish
Speaker 2: it up and getting out this Little Brother documentary and
Speaker 2: uh yeah, trying to find more time to sit still.
Speaker 2: That's kind of what this last month has been. Yeah,
Speaker 2: just like just being still. So I try to just
Speaker 2: sit in that and so definitely make you more time
Speaker 2: for that for myself every day.
