Now. 356 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: I thought this was genius because number one DC Young 357 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: Fly is funny as hell. And I think if you're 358 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: a comedian and you're putting your space, you're putting yourself 359 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: in a space as also a personality or you know, 360 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: a broadcast or like a talking head because now they 361 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: have this podcast and are sitting down or doing interviews. 362 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 1: You don't want to run from the smoke.

But if it makes sense 366 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: for you to address things head on. If you are 367 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,760 Speaker 1: a part of the news, you lean in and you 368 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: being a part of the news, and that's exactly what 369 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 1: he did. But at the same time, and being a comedian, 370 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: it's like, give us the funny, and that's exactly what 371 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: he did. But I also love that he kept it 372 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 1: respectful because at the end of the day he said 373 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: many times he's a fan of Across's music, Brick Ross, 374 00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: he still looks at him as an og but he 375 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: kept it very clear. Don't play with us though not 376 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: on no like we got real beef, but just like, don't 377 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: disrespect or discredit what we've worked on and what we built. 378 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 3: You're not the only person who comes here for free. 379 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: This this show moves and did move with or without you. 380 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: And after you decided to leave, and I thought the 381 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: Gucci jacket thing was funny, let's take a listen to 382 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: that one more time. 383 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 3: And the jacket you owed the jacket for no reason. 384 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 2: We'll let me buy that mother Gucci jacket up off 385 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: you then so I can tell my son I bought 386 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 2: this from it. 387 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 3: Who left? He said that he wore it for no reason. 388 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 5: It was a waste.
