Speaker 5: Welcome to Mama's and Gentiles like to another phenomenal episode
Speaker 5: of My Mama Told Me.
Speaker 2: Got that Ship out.
Speaker 3: The podcast where we died deep deep into the pockets
Speaker 3: of black conspiracy theory and we don't try to prove
Speaker 3: a motherfucking thing anymore?
Speaker 6: Do you want us to you don't. You have a
Speaker 6: lot of podcasts you can listen to where you learn.
Speaker 6: If you want for daily yeah, you get your stuff.
Speaker 6: You got to go to about two sources.
Speaker 1: If you want some guys to talk about a movie
Speaker 1: they saw and recall it poorly, yeah, and then be
Speaker 1: dragged in the comments, this is where you need to be.
Speaker 1: This is the exact correct space they be coming at
Speaker 1: us about those movies.
Speaker 3: And I just say, it's not if we didn't rehearse
Speaker 3: this everyone, No, So if we get it wrong, treat
Speaker 3: it like when your friend is talking. You're like that
Speaker 3: motherfucker wrong. But yeah, like move on, Yeah.
Speaker 5: It does actually, yeah, it's all well actually.
Speaker 3: And frankly, frankly, I don't mind the well actually, I
Speaker 3: actually don't mind it. What makes me sick to my
Speaker 3: stomach is when somebody says, well, actually, and then a
Speaker 3: motherfucker right below them says the exact same ship.
Speaker 5: Yeah, established, how many well actually are we going to get?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Hey, we know that some Transformers works all right.
Speaker 3: Now, we know I'm on drugs, I'm high on drugs.

Speaker 1: You don't work, What's what's gonna happen?
Speaker 3: O get with my friend?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I can barely read I have one before we get
Speaker 5: into it. Here's what I think, man. I think that
Speaker 5: these companies who offer to erase all your data, I
Speaker 5: think that's the newest major financial scam.
Speaker 1: I don't believe in it at all. I don't believe
Speaker 1: in it at all. I think that if selling interpersonal
Speaker 1: data is the current currency on which the world is
Speaker 1: like running, right, they're not giving that up because I
Speaker 1: gave some guy eighty nine to ninety five. I don't
Speaker 1: believe it. I don't believe it.
Speaker 3: I fully agree with it.
Speaker 5: It's like when you would pay those credit not the consolidations,
Speaker 5: but basically the credit trackers, and then they would just
Speaker 5: do some shit you could have done yourself. He think
Speaker 5: it's like that type of thing.
Speaker 2: But that's most things, most things we're paying for.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 2: We don't feel like doing That's what I'm saying. I
Speaker 2: think it's just so like, yeah, they probably are cleaning
Speaker 2: up your whatever, but you could just do that. You
Speaker 2: just don't want to do.
Speaker 1: You think you can do you think you can erase
Speaker 1: your data, and I don't think way outside of deleting
Speaker 1: these platforms, is there an you can't fully I even
Speaker 1: think it doesn't make sense.
Speaker 3: I even think now we've reached a point where we
Speaker 3: are under so much constant surveillance from other people that
Speaker 3: even in erasing your own data, it doesn't matter. We
Speaker 3: have We have every person in your life, we have
Speaker 3: every person you cross paths with in your day. We
Speaker 3: know where you are even when.
Speaker 2: You let's say I get all social media were pictures.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You know what triangulate, triangulate
Speaker 1: the right it is it is, and don't doubt yourself.
Speaker 1: Won't you did?
Speaker 3: You did the right?
Speaker 1: They can triangulate, they could, but.
Speaker 2: Like even they could just be look at I look
Speaker 2: at the government like like a woman trying to find
Speaker 2: a man cheap. You feel me like they gonna find
Speaker 2: with him. These women got this shipped down to a
Speaker 2: sign you can get also they I've watched my wife
Speaker 2: and her friends be detectives off the most minor shit.
Speaker 2: You see who she They will go on Facebook, every
Speaker 2: social media find articles to narrow down who this nigga
Speaker 2: might be.
Speaker 7: Fucking like it's crazy. And that's for hobby, that's for fun,

Speaker 7: Time out, I'm doing research. Were nosy. Yeah, off, her
Speaker 7: friend's friends talk of that bitch like that they never
Speaker 7: go out with her or nothing.

Speaker 3: is third party enough that I can like remove my
Speaker 3: human sort of nature and just be like, I am
Speaker 3: an animal. I want to find out everything about you.
Speaker 3: Because you don't know it don't matter to me because I've.
Speaker 1: Said a lot of salacious things in this room.

Speaker 3: few episodes in the podcast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, my girl's aunt told me she listens.

Speaker 2: be like, but then I'd be like, I'm forty one.
Speaker 2: Well it is what you raise an animal yes, you
Speaker 2: know it is.
Speaker 1: It is, but I just don't like that level of
Speaker 1: exposure at family gathering.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying. You can't know
Speaker 3: everything I say.
Speaker 1: Now you know what I think about and then we
Speaker 1: just got to have dinner. That's tough.
Speaker 2: And what's crazy is this is me actually being censored
Speaker 2: because I know they're listening.
Speaker 3: That's also true stuff.
Speaker 2: I don't say like you usually be like, you're pretty
Speaker 2: transparent on his person. I'm like, shit, I don't say
Speaker 2: you're saying, ok, you.
Speaker 1: Ever let it leak sometimes and somebody hears what you
Speaker 1: think and then you have to be like, no, it
Speaker 1: is good.
Speaker 2: I let it leak with That's that's the best part
Speaker 2: of our marriage.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Sure she knows that.
Speaker 2: With you the most just heinous jokes, thoughts or whatever.
Speaker 2: Shed that is hilarious. I'm doing, Oh, I'm all kind
Speaker 2: of accents at home.
Speaker 8: Man.
Speaker 3: Here's what this is making me feel. It really speaks
Speaker 3: to the unreasonable nature of the white man like this,
Speaker 3: that we can find so much pleasure in in the
Speaker 3: in the making fun of different types of people, which
Speaker 3: is it's nature. It is a part of who the
Speaker 3: fuck we are as human beings is to be like,
Speaker 3: you're different than me. I see that. That's funny to me,
Speaker 3: it's very normal. But the white man in his devildom
Speaker 3: demands that you have to do it out loud.
Speaker 2: That's to be out in the streets time the people
Speaker 2: talk funny. It's so different than here. That's crazy, that's insane.
Speaker 5: I just think people from that country where funny pants,
Speaker 5: and that's fine, that's okay, and that doesn't need to
Speaker 5: be anything.
Speaker 1: It doesn't make me feel any better.
Speaker 2: They have jobs.
Speaker 3: They don't want to take it. You know, maybe they
Speaker 3: can live on my block. Men in Beijing roll their
Speaker 3: tank tops up and rest them on their bellies. I
Speaker 3: see they can stay cool during the summer. That's funny.
Speaker 3: It's really funny. I don't think walk around in front
Speaker 3: of them and do it. Yeah whatever, let's go to dinner.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's what I don't. You are a good man
Speaker 3: to be Yeah, you just look funny. Your devils.
Speaker 5: I've been saying this too. They're they fucked it up
Speaker 5: for us being able to make fun of other.
Speaker 2: Types reverse But what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: I hate talking about comedy.
Speaker 5: I've been doing a bit about it though, where it's
Speaker 5: like white guys made it, so we can't do the accent.
Speaker 1: Because everybody else likes do an accent. And you go
Speaker 1: to any other country, that's the first thing they do.
Speaker 1: Let's go, oh, here a cool American guy or whatever
Speaker 1: their other accent, and we have to pretend to be
Speaker 1: offended by that because white people made it hot.
Speaker 2: Bro, I don't you know it is funny when they do.
Speaker 1: It is funny when they do my acts.
Speaker 2: It's so funny that you tried it.
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying face. I don't want to dress
Speaker 1: up like them, but I.
Speaker 2: Do know outfits. I just want to have fun.
Speaker 5: I just want to have at anybody with the woman
Speaker 5: I love. I agree at a Japanese restaurant.
Speaker 2: An Indian restaurant, Comodi restaurants, sometimes black restaurants. Sometime you
Speaker 2: know what, it's a nice lady named Ashley, but in
Speaker 2: my mind it's Lakeisha Jenkins and were about to go
Speaker 2: in at the table. Funny, It's funny. Life's funny.
Speaker 3: Life is funny, and I'm giving you my money. I'm
Speaker 3: eating here. Yeah, no, I'm That's where I get nervous.
Speaker 1: Oh, you don't like the transaction enough.
Speaker 3: It become transaction. Then I need a little worry.
Speaker 1: You don't want me to pay them to talk like that.
Speaker 3: Now, it's a service that they're providing listening to you
Speaker 3: do that, you know what I mean?
Speaker 5: Like that's violence, and I have a mom who loves me.
Speaker 5: I'm not doing it to them, I you know what
Speaker 5: I mean. I was raised indoors, not a monster. Yeah,
Speaker 5: this is just one thing I'm trying.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like doing it to them is also a crazy
Speaker 1: thing that white people will do. Yeah, I think that's
Speaker 1: why they funk it up to like what man I seen.
Speaker 1: I think Asian people the most. I've seen a lot
Speaker 1: of Asian people catch it from white guys directly, and
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, they're hanging up on you in like
Speaker 1: a mean, mean way.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're they're looking at rush Hour and learning nothing
Speaker 3: from Chris Tucker.
Speaker 1: That's so funny.
Speaker 3: Rush Hour. That really taught us a lot about race
Speaker 3: relations because that was in some ways a bigoted man. Yeah.
Speaker 3: And then yeah, the whole movie is he's a pretty
Speaker 3: bigoted guy.
Speaker 1: When you watch that movie, he's just like, I don't
Speaker 1: know what you're saying.
Speaker 2: He's been pretty hard what he did he was talking
Speaker 2: about he said greasy, say this greasy ship.
Speaker 8: And look how happy we are now remembering funny so
Speaker 8: good friends, they become best friends.
Speaker 2: They truly could not be closer. English.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he was never not funny about his bigotry.
Speaker 3: And that's where the white man fails.
Speaker 5: You know what I think. Okay, here's a conspiracy. I'm
Speaker 5: talking out right now.
Speaker 1: You know why we didn't get a rush hour for
Speaker 1: that's the white man's biggest fear. Us and the Asians
Speaker 1: get together. That truly is See, white man, why are
Speaker 1: you mad at me?
Speaker 5: Why are you mad at me? How big is Asia?
Speaker 5: How big is Africa? It just makes sense, Langston, Why
Speaker 5: are you doing it like that? See, I didn't think
Speaker 5: I said anything.
Speaker 3: It's so funny to me that it took until the
Speaker 3: fourth movie for them to finally.
Speaker 2: Laughing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they were like, oh this is so good. They're like, wait,
Speaker 1: something's happening, Like.
Speaker 2: The two best makers of Fried Chicken together, KFC is
Speaker 2: done exactly, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: And they saw and they saw little things start to happen. Oh,
Speaker 1: Drew Hill has an album called You're the Dragon Interesting,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: With Chinese symbols on him.
Speaker 2: People that are getting tatted up.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they didn't like it, because that's the only way
Speaker 1: we topple what I.
Speaker 2: Believe and AI codes I'm reading, yeah, reading beautifully.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, Trump just forced Paramount to make rush
Speaker 3: hour for right?
Speaker 1: Trump did.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Some some of the stuff he does I'm on board with.
Speaker 5: Sometimes he makes I don't I don't do you have
Speaker 5: to explain that.
Speaker 3: I don't know that I've ever thought I would say this,
Speaker 3: but thank you, mister president.
Speaker 2: That's what do you mean he forced in to make
Speaker 2: I knew it was coming out.
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it sounds like some ship he
Speaker 3: would do.
Speaker 2: That is just random.
Speaker 3: It does seem like something that he would wake up
Speaker 3: in the middle of the night and demand of a
Speaker 3: of a of a company, just make me rush hour four?
Speaker 1: Is it?
Speaker 2: All the things?
Speaker 3: Yeah, in the world, that's fucking is it?
Speaker 1: Jackie and Chris?
Speaker 2: I don't think you get to do rush Hour? No,
Speaker 2: you know, I actually saw a thing on it that
Speaker 2: said they were doing a fourth one though really I
Speaker 2: just didn't know that. Never saw Trump. Was it the
Speaker 2: president was?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: He was EP and the ship, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: If he's EP on it, that's gonna suck.
Speaker 1: You know what's crazy, because then that's when that third
Speaker 1: term comes. He says, I gave you four rush give
Speaker 1: me three turns.
Speaker 3: Give me three.
Speaker 2: That's a while. But I'm not gonna know how to feel.
Speaker 1: Because you're gonna watch Rush Hour four.
Speaker 2: No other president has gotten me a rush hour.
Speaker 1: That's I don't think Clinton stopped it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he didn't do it.
Speaker 2: Do you know what I mean that he this is
Speaker 2: the president, but we never I never heard that Trump.
Speaker 3: I just dropped o Veriety link in the group chat.
Speaker 3: Thank god, Oh my gosh, this this is wild.
Speaker 1: This is a great podcast.
Speaker 3: Rush Hour four in the works that Paramount at Trump's requests.
Speaker 3: Rush Hour four is in the works with Paramount on
Speaker 3: board to distribute the newest installment in the Buddy Cop series.
Speaker 3: The long, jest stating sequel is reportedly the beneficiary of
Speaker 3: some Oval office intervention. President Donald Trump had personally requested
Speaker 3: that the studio revived the franchise, as first reported by Semaphore,
Speaker 3: God damn it.
Speaker 2: This is one of those things though, where like somebody
Speaker 2: just you know, he likes credit for everything, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean? I think it was already in the
Speaker 2: words he was like, I actually, but you know what
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 5: I think what he's good at is a diversion, and
Speaker 5: I think he's good at understanding the hearts of people,
Speaker 5: for better or worse.
Speaker 1: I could imagine him knowing that's a good play.
Speaker 3: I bet it's simpler than they're pitching it. And I
Speaker 3: bet he was hanging out with Jackie Chan some shit,
Speaker 3: not Chris Tucker. I maybe both.
Speaker 1: Chris Tucker pops up often everywhere.
Speaker 3: And he's got a he's got a lot of big,
Speaker 3: wealthy friends, and that's Chris. Hey, hey, come on, man,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. I'm a big fan. Come on, bro,
Speaker 3: all right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Chris Tucker's like, can we talk about
Speaker 1: via sent of Chris Tucker. I don't think people give
Speaker 1: credit for how far he really He was hanging out
Speaker 1: with the president.
Speaker 2: From fifteen minutes, bro, That's what. I don't think people
Speaker 2: know his start. But it was like people don't understand,
Speaker 2: Like everybody, yeah, everybody knows. Eddie was like, that's unheard of,
Speaker 2: that'll never happen again. Yeah, people don't know. Chris Tucker
Speaker 2: was like a small version of that. He only had
Speaker 2: fifteen I don't know that hot five and he just
Speaker 2: took the funk off.
Speaker 3: I don't know if he says small as as Eddie.
Speaker 3: I think his ascension never hit the same height asn't right,
Speaker 3: But the speed which he went up was faster from nothing.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 1: And that's like, and that's a credit that they.
Speaker 2: Started giving them movies. They just started giving them like
Speaker 2: from fifteen minutes, he's on one set, we Want Everything
Speaker 2: for You, and he did Deaf Jam and then he
Speaker 2: was in Money Talk.
Speaker 3: That was it. That's crazy, yeah, I mean, and that's
Speaker 3: a perfect film.
Speaker 5: Do you think that's like just him being really savvy,
Speaker 5: Like what is that a testament to bro?
Speaker 2: I think what I mean, he had a voice.
Speaker 3: He had never seen a man like that before.
Speaker 2: I mean he killed Friday. He killed Friday.
Speaker 1: He had a dance that took over the country. He's
Speaker 1: also gorgeous, Like he's a beautiful man, you.
Speaker 3: Know what I mean. Like he's a good looking ass dude,
Speaker 3: and he's funny, and he was like a different kind
Speaker 3: of energy and swag that did not scare white people,
Speaker 3: but at least like rang honest with black people where
Speaker 3: we were like no, we know niggas like this right,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like they're not afraid of
Speaker 3: him because of his voice, but he also still can
Speaker 3: connect with black men. It's a rare fine bro.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's rare. Are I feel like we don't give
Speaker 1: him his flowers in the way.
Speaker 2: That he took off.
Speaker 1: He was crazy.
Speaker 2: It was like he literally went fifteen minutes and twenty
Speaker 2: million dollars a movie. It's crazy and like a year
Speaker 2: or two. Yeah, yeah, that's see and so and so.
Speaker 3: We're we're hoping Rush Out for is a big hit.
Speaker 1: It's how could it not.
Speaker 3: I couldn't be excited. I'm gonna see it. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: go see it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it makes money back on the first round
Speaker 2: even if people see him Like man movie was ass.
Speaker 2: We already saw it.
Speaker 3: Everybody always Yeah, everybody wants.
Speaker 1: To It's like black and Chinese Happy Gilmore Too.
Speaker 2: Which I enjoyed Happy Gilmore Too.
Speaker 1: I didn't get as much as Happy Gilmore, but I
Speaker 1: watched it.
Speaker 2: I like the callbacks, I enjoyed some of the jokes,
Speaker 2: some of the things, the familiarity of it.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 5: Sometimes I do just want to see a movie that
Speaker 5: feels like another movie I've seen.
Speaker 3: We are so far from just introducing our guests.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a good point. That's a good point. That's
Speaker 5: a good point. He's been making points.
Speaker 3: He's been talking the whole time.
Speaker 2: It's natural.
Speaker 3: That's a good, positive, loving energy. But our guests today,
Speaker 3: you've already heard so much from him. He's hilarious. We're
Speaker 3: so happy that he's here. He has a brand new
Speaker 3: special called why Can't I Say That? It's on YouTube.
Speaker 2: Yeah, YouTube, YouTube and Prime.
Speaker 3: YouTube and Prime go watch that ship so funny.
Speaker 2: We love him. Give it up for ke On Poli.
Speaker 1: Everybody be to six.
Speaker 3: My crew is big, and it keeps getting bigger. That's
Speaker 3: because Jesus Christ is manegga.
Speaker 2: I remember that video.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was huge.
Speaker 2: Probably what the hell I bet covid got him.
Speaker 3: I struggle to know if they were in on that joke.
Speaker 2: I don't just how easily Opie Bar scams.
Speaker 5: Well, like, okay, this is a little bit. This is
Speaker 5: my take from it is.
Speaker 3: I believe that.
Speaker 5: Not that it I don't. I believe the intent was
Speaker 5: to connect to the youth. I think that's truly what
Speaker 5: the ball. Yeah, I think that's what happened, Like it was.
Speaker 1: I think it was a really bad idea, But I
Speaker 1: think they they felt like they were doing church outreach,
Speaker 1: and it's just they just blew it.
Speaker 2: Because old people are really you go, it don't even
Speaker 2: take that long. Even if you look at yourself in
Speaker 2: like a twenty eight Once you get past like a
Speaker 2: ten year gap, it is worlds apart, ye like it is.
Speaker 2: So if you go twenty years, thirty of these people
Speaker 2: are in a different space, Like you're watching, like old
Speaker 2: people get scared, how do you fall for the shit?
Speaker 2: But it's like seven to ten years is big, Like.
Speaker 3: I really don't know where they are.
Speaker 5: I watch what twenty year olds do and I don't
Speaker 5: understand it no at all at all, And like my
Speaker 5: whatever my take is on the outside is so far
Speaker 5: removed from what it actually is. So then you think
Speaker 5: of somebody that old just seeing rapping and being like, oh, okay.
Speaker 2: Everybody's saying it. Yeah, yeah, he's saying it's in every
Speaker 2: song on the radio. Yeah, I love Snoop Sippity Box exactly.
Speaker 3: And I think they're they're just trying to connect to
Speaker 3: a group of people. Now, I do think that the
Speaker 3: people that were holding the camera.
Speaker 2: They were back there snicker, that's as they were dying.
Speaker 3: They were because they knew what whoever edited the video
Speaker 3: the devil times, yeah.
Speaker 2: The literal devil, Like bro, we put this ship out.
Speaker 2: It probably was a grandkids. Yeah you know, white people.
Speaker 2: Grand kids be different.
Speaker 3: Now you need to give me my ad.
Speaker 2: Okay, we'll say about that.
Speaker 3: Man, because they know, if nothing else, they know the
Speaker 3: longevity of this video, right, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 3: that's that's the part of it that the old people
Speaker 3: can't fully comprehend. It is that this is what you're
Speaker 3: doing is forever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what this is some reason these young
Speaker 2: kids can't comprehend that. They keep putting it out, like
Speaker 2: you know, this is not going anywhere and everybody's gonna
Speaker 2: see this.
Speaker 3: I don't think that they care about I think they
Speaker 3: have a different perspective because Jenna Alpha and below they're like, well,
Speaker 3: we don't even know what forever means anymore, so we
Speaker 3: don't care about the permanence of things, which is more
Speaker 3: cynical I think than we were. Well, it never even
Speaker 3: occurred to me that things can be old.
Speaker 2: It's the gen z. That's my kids are the alpha.
Speaker 1: You kids are the younger.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: That's Jen Alpha if they're like old, what do you
Speaker 3: mean like behavior?
Speaker 2: Everybody who has like these new kids, they're like my
Speaker 2: kids come home from school and be like Alexa play motown.
Speaker 2: Like these motherfuckers kids are old bro. They like have
Speaker 2: real old souls. They're like they're real compassionate, they're real
Speaker 2: like they're aware of things. They're hell smart, Like they're
Speaker 2: just old as hell and actually not sensitive like the
Speaker 2: gen Z.
Speaker 3: Like you're saying that gen Z is more the same.
Speaker 2: They're the outlying ones because we aligned closer with gen
Speaker 2: X or whatever, and then Jelf was his own thing.
Speaker 2: It's that gen Z that's like, okay, their own all
Speaker 2: the time. Yeah, they're they're they're lost. It feels I
Speaker 2: think they're confused.
Speaker 3: And I think they us. I, personally a member of
Speaker 3: your community, don't feel that way about you.
Speaker 1: Gen Z is an elder millennial talkie.
Speaker 2: I don't say.
Speaker 3: A fellow gen Z.
Speaker 1: They had a whole life before the internet came out.
Speaker 1: Don't listen to them.
Speaker 3: I took a bird scooter here just like you gen Z.
Speaker 2: How offended millennials get when they get lumped in with
Speaker 2: gen Z because they we make fun of them and
Speaker 2: then old people like I said, so far moved the
Speaker 2: whole time. They thought we were gen z, like they
Speaker 2: didn't know where, they didn't know the difference. I made
Speaker 2: a video and happened to go viral, and all these
Speaker 2: old people was like, oh, I apologize. I thought you
Speaker 2: guys were with them, and it's like, no, we don't
Speaker 2: like them either.
Speaker 1: We don't know what they're doing.
Speaker 2: We don't know what they're doing.
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 5: It freaks me out how little, how small the gaps
Speaker 5: are now and how great great the divide is socially,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean? Man, we got a little
Speaker 5: brother's group chat and my littlest brother some ship.
Speaker 3: I don't get. I don't.
Speaker 1: I have to be like I have to be like, man,
Speaker 1: I don't know why this is funny. Yeah, Like he'll
Speaker 1: be like this is so funny, and I'll be like,
Speaker 1: I you have to tell me.
Speaker 2: I don't understand, and I'm on the I'm not like,
Speaker 2: you know what you.
Speaker 3: Need to die? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know what I mean. But I'm just like,
Speaker 1: just that little bit and their humor seems so much darker.
Speaker 1: These they're bad.
Speaker 2: I'm okay, they're going in on Charlie Kirk that's that's
Speaker 2: all they got that song.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they have a have a song where people repeatedly
Speaker 3: do sort of like heroic praise dances to it. It's
Speaker 3: and it's all very ironic. But then there's now a
Speaker 3: conservative I guess, sect of people who take it seriously.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like which is even fun, which makes it
Speaker 5: so much funnier to continue to use it.
Speaker 2: Right, the Internet wasn't supposed to like, we weren't supposed
Speaker 2: to know everybody was just goddamn dumb.
Speaker 3: No, No, it's a problems.
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, I thought, oh, we're just all happen.
Speaker 3: I was like, oh, no, you guys are really.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just said that Tolson yesterday. I was like,
Speaker 5: I think that people are way smarter than they are.
Speaker 5: I think, and I'm not saying that I think I'm
Speaker 5: that smart, but like I didn't know that there were
Speaker 5: people real dumb.
Speaker 3: I don't, yeah, like low function. Yeah, Like in college,
Speaker 3: I lived in a hall with a dude whose family's
Speaker 3: name was on like one of our most like prominent buildings,
Speaker 3: Like they were that that that family and that his
Speaker 3: name was on the fucking building and truly one of
Speaker 3: the dumbest people I've ever engaged with in life, where
Speaker 3: like I was, like, it doesn't even it doesn't even
Speaker 3: fully make sense that you're here.
Speaker 1: Bro. That kind of is how good these systems we
Speaker 1: made as people are that they can carry.
Speaker 2: Root project life. There's some people, honest, how did you
Speaker 2: make it to this age by your lonesome? How did
Speaker 2: you get here? You are dumb ass?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's impressive, really it is.
Speaker 3: Too finesse is still impressive. I don't agree with it,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like, if I really got
Speaker 3: my vote, I would say that it should be far
Speaker 3: more egalitarian. It should be reflective of people's actual like
Speaker 3: skills and resources. But the truth is, if you can
Speaker 3: figure out a way to get your dumb ass boy
Speaker 3: all the way to you know, a relatively prominent university
Speaker 3: and on beyond, you did it. Baby. Yeah, you're you're
Speaker 3: a talented person. What are you gonna do not help
Speaker 3: your dumb ass kid go crazy? Mister? You know what
Speaker 3: I mean?
Speaker 5: Like this, that's like, yeah, man, I pray I don't
Speaker 5: have a kid who's too stupid, because I'm gonna help
Speaker 5: him out a bunch more too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like people will get mad in nepotism, but I'm like,
Speaker 2: as a parent, I get it. I get it. Why
Speaker 2: wouldn't you favorite it's even like, it's even better if
Speaker 2: your kid is talented and your kid is Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, it's just a flex. Yeah, if your kid's
Speaker 2: a dumb ass, you still gotta you're gonna get them
Speaker 2: POSI them. You know, I didn't do all this for me.
Speaker 2: I'm to check out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I die anyways, what I care?
Speaker 2: I get it. And it is a skill to be
Speaker 2: able to pull these strings, although I don't want to
Speaker 2: have to. What are you gonna stay at my house?
Speaker 1: Yeah that's the thing too. You need them to make
Speaker 1: some money.
Speaker 3: You can't stay with you gotta get return on your investment.
Speaker 3: Yeah that's true too, And I do call my children investments.
Speaker 3: I look at you as investment. One investment. To gather
Speaker 3: around the fireplace, Papa wishes to tell you a story.
Speaker 1: Would it hurt your feelings if your kid kids came
Speaker 1: out like dumb for real? Would you be like, man,
Speaker 1: maybe I'm dumber than I thought.
Speaker 2: No, I just blame her.
Speaker 1: That's smart.
Speaker 2: I'm not taking that's the smartest. I excel it everything.
Speaker 2: I'm like, there's no way this is me.
Speaker 3: My god know, we had a hero in the building.
Speaker 9: There's no way, there's no way cool, what a way?
Speaker 3: What a.
Speaker 2: I have the track record to show it can't be me.
Speaker 3: It can't be mean.
Speaker 2: Like I have the track record. This is I have
Speaker 2: my old I'm not bullshit. My dad recently just sent me, like,
Speaker 2: you know, all my shoulders from childhood. He rusted it
Speaker 2: off the charts, uh case to me, first of all,
Speaker 2: like for you this, I know something. I gonna be
Speaker 2: like he's an asshole for his wife. No, I got
Speaker 2: the I got this special.
Speaker 3: This motherfucker said.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, everybody, my core is rotten. You can't
Speaker 2: now that all the way listen. But as far as failure,
Speaker 2: not being smart, not being athletic, any no, that's not me.
Speaker 3: That's really funny.
Speaker 1: That is really funny.
Speaker 3: That's not I can't. Yeah, I'll blame myself. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: got my bad my bad dog.
Speaker 2: Trying to figure out what went wrong. I just know
Speaker 2: what didn't mix right.
Speaker 3: I know how much of what I've succeeded in and
Speaker 3: how much of it I just didn't know what the
Speaker 3: fuck I was doing and got lucky right. So much
Speaker 3: of my life has truly just been me putting full
Speaker 3: going full throttle on some ship that like hit a
Speaker 3: bump that should have made me fucking flip my car,
Speaker 3: and somehow I landed on my feet and now I'm
Speaker 3: that good again.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not like lack of effort. It's just like
Speaker 1: even for me, like.
Speaker 2: What you already said, going boss of the Wall is why.
Speaker 1: I think that has a lot to do with it.
Speaker 2: And stuff is just even when you fall, it's like,
Speaker 2: so what you were going so fast? You just keep rolling?
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 1: It's like but it's like, but there were some poor decisions.
Speaker 1: The wall on stand up comedy not a great decision.
Speaker 2: Poorest decision worked out for me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I've seen people who I thought were funnier than
Speaker 5: me who couldn't make it work out.
Speaker 3: They weren't going Bass of the Wall.
Speaker 2: Yeah they had. I think some were thin and didn't.
Speaker 2: You know, I think some words like that the the
Speaker 2: failures per se, which.
Speaker 1: I don't even want to acknowledge.
Speaker 2: Failures like that, ain't. I was like, I'll have setbacks,
Speaker 2: I'll have stomach and I don't feel as ship. I know,
Speaker 2: like if you keep I'll keep going, I'll keep you know,
Speaker 2: like I might. I took this l but I'm gonna
Speaker 2: win the game, like I'm like, so I don't, I
Speaker 2: don't like not.
Speaker 1: What's your metric for winning?
Speaker 2: You keep going until you're you're satisfied, okay, like you
Speaker 2: until you hit that because you're gonna have setbacks, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean. You're gonna you're gonna have moments. But
Speaker 2: there's no there's no clock that says the game is over,
Speaker 2: and I you keep going until like now I'm winning.
Speaker 3: I think that is that is the the truth and
Speaker 3: the poison of the casino that is longing to continue
Speaker 3: to gamble. You have a shot at winning it all,
Speaker 3: and as long as you continue to gamble, you will
Speaker 3: continue to lose everything. And I think that's the nasty
Speaker 3: nature of our business is that there is no expiration day,
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 10: Ship.
Speaker 2: So there's a bunch of.
Speaker 3: People who objectively are funny people who are gonna continue
Speaker 3: to down a path that is not going to offer
Speaker 3: them a finished a journey. But but despite that, they
Speaker 3: are going to keep convincing themselves this is a worthy
Speaker 3: effort because if.
Speaker 2: Some people are delusional, let's not we're not kind of
Speaker 2: talking about them, right, I mean, I.
Speaker 1: Think it was a delusional thing to even get into it.
Speaker 3: I think the very premise of picking up a microphone
Speaker 3: and demanding the attention of strangers is delusion.
Speaker 1: That's how I feel. So it's like we're already nuts
Speaker 1: all in here anyway.
Speaker 3: Brother, Look look how you responded at the possibility of
Speaker 3: your nut being trashed because.
Speaker 2: Seas but in other seats it would be an asonine
Speaker 2: thing to say. But the really I got them. It
Speaker 2: could not be one one of my ten million sperm.
Speaker 2: It's not got.
Speaker 5: This can't come, you know, just one person of your lineage,
Speaker 5: Like there's all kinds of stuff within within your I have.
Speaker 2: To blame somebody else did I'd have to blame them.
Speaker 3: It was apparently it was even.
Speaker 2: Even in that I like, like, I mean like looking
Speaker 2: at stuff sometimes because I was doing Uh. I just
Speaker 2: met one of my cousins in uh. I was just
Speaker 2: into Homa and we were walking down the family trains.
Speaker 2: Like the amount of when I moved to l A,
Speaker 2: people didn't even know my name for me. They knew
Speaker 2: it because of my cousin, who was like a fucking
Speaker 2: all American, but then his son was like all his
Speaker 2: brother was like my family. You google mind there's all
Speaker 2: these crazy athletes that all did. He went to the lead,
Speaker 2: went to blah blah blah blah, and then the.
Speaker 1: Women who the women that as well.
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, though college degrees and ship like that.
Speaker 2: My family be killing.
Speaker 1: But there's no negative. You don't think there's a dark.
Speaker 2: You know, there's things happening, and.
Speaker 3: Some of them hoopers wouldn't focused on ball the whole time.
Speaker 2: That's why they didn't. That's decision man, genetics.
Speaker 3: But I'm saying that I'm setting out this route that
Speaker 3: might be a genetic level making. It could be like
Speaker 3: there's something in you that just desires this attraction over
Speaker 3: the life. Possibly and maybe maybe one of your many
Speaker 3: many it was singular of your sperm. But man could
Speaker 3: have been got it all right.
Speaker 2: My kids are come on great.
Speaker 1: So it's got smart babies.
Speaker 2: My oldest mine. We had to work on that one.
Speaker 1: I have no comment.
Speaker 2: What if he had an opinion on it.
Speaker 3: With the work.
Speaker 2: Now, he's good, he's good. We had to put him
Speaker 2: in programs, all kinds of stuff. Speech delayed, he was like.
Speaker 2: He honestly made me question like, oh, ship, did we did.
Speaker 1: You think it was your nuts? For a minute.
Speaker 3: Then I didn't know what it was.
Speaker 1: Its crazy.
Speaker 2: We were like were you couldn't figure out? And then
Speaker 2: you know, it all worked out and then now he's
Speaker 2: excelling everything. But there was I was like, this can't
Speaker 2: be right. Okay the man you were maybe, I was like, no,
Speaker 2: this gout it. Maybe he's gonna kick in later, like
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, like maybe it did. That
Speaker 2: is crazy. Later we just got to give him something
Speaker 2: like I was like, it's dormant. It's just laying all
Speaker 2: his talent, all his smart The most beautiful it came
Speaker 2: out was it was there.
Speaker 1: It was there.
Speaker 2: I was like, there's no way that it's impossible.
Speaker 3: It will grow.
Speaker 2: Because when I started having kids, I started, like pamoret
Speaker 2: into two genetics, like just watching people like you watch families.
Speaker 2: You watch families that come in and they all like
Speaker 2: look alike. You're like, genetics are crazy.
Speaker 1: Bro looks like like on some weird ship and all
Speaker 1: got blockheads and you're like, oh, so blocked.
Speaker 3: What becomes even more troubling is once you start seeing
Speaker 3: what you did to another person. Do you know what
Speaker 3: I mean? Where you like you got these are very
Speaker 3: different angles. I don't feel troubled by it per se.
Speaker 3: But it just is fascinating when you're like, oh, both
Speaker 3: my kids just have that, So I had to have
Speaker 3: done that, do you know what I mean? I'm responsible for.
Speaker 2: That is what we what we are.
Speaker 1: That's a Kerman.
Speaker 3: That's a Kerman thing. That fascinating.
Speaker 1: Do you get when you see that within your kids
Speaker 1: where you're like, that's not Nikki, that's one hundred per
Speaker 1: that's me, one hundred per.
Speaker 3: I see that really Like my wife and I met
Speaker 3: one person in her family that does that or behaves
Speaker 3: that way.
Speaker 1: That is that's interesting.
Speaker 5: That is me, see because I always wonder about that
Speaker 5: stuff because I grew up with no family, so I
Speaker 5: feel like I built myself in a vacuum. My mom
Speaker 5: was the only person I knew related to me until
Speaker 5: I was seventeen.
Speaker 2: You have cousin person, I haven't met my life that
Speaker 2: did have cousins.
Speaker 3: I'm from a country with the war.
Speaker 5: We came here and a war started, so then none
Speaker 5: of them could come here either. We just so and
Speaker 5: like most everybody died.
Speaker 3: We just didn't go fund me there shit, we let them.
Speaker 5: No, no, no, That's why I'm like, there's there's wars
Speaker 5: that aren't in vogue.
Speaker 1: I feel like.
Speaker 5: People do this like free whatever shit, like there's not
Speaker 5: other wars happening that aren't equally as devastating, you know
Speaker 5: what I mean, there's wars that are in.
Speaker 2: Vote picks, the tears of what man economics.
Speaker 5: Baby, all we had was we didn't. There were no
Speaker 5: major resource. Nobody's like Cereleon. There is diamonds, but those
Speaker 5: were already controlled even throughout the war. And I think
Speaker 5: it's aesthetics. I think they are the ones that they
Speaker 5: think we can they can garner the most sympathy for. Yeah,
Speaker 5: I think Syria is easier than Sierra Leone.
Speaker 3: Yep, I think.
Speaker 2: I mean it's known though, Yeah, I got no.
Speaker 1: Not when the war was happening, not at all, not
Speaker 1: at all. Because war broke out in.
Speaker 3: Ninety ninety one, it wasn't until it wasn't.
Speaker 5: Diamonds are from ciri Leon came out in three but
Speaker 5: we got legally declared over, and I think NATO said
Speaker 5: it was over in two thousand.
Speaker 1: We went in on one. It was not. It was
Speaker 1: not at all.
Speaker 3: Cover it was not, and we weren't. The song is
Speaker 3: is not like we gotta fix it. No, the song
Speaker 3: is just like yeah, nigga, I got diamonds.
Speaker 11: Yeah yeah, yeah, it's truly nasty mast But the point
Speaker 11: of all that genetic shit is that it's so interesting
Speaker 11: because I felt like I built myself almost in a vacuum.
Speaker 1: And then even like going to Tokyo with my brothers
Speaker 1: last week when my brother will say some ship and
Speaker 1: I'll be like you always you always do that, mm hmm,
Speaker 1: and he's like yeah, and I'm like, oh, I thought
Speaker 1: that was just some shit I liked. I didn't even
Speaker 1: know that that there.
Speaker 2: Was like nexs crazy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't know there was a familial thing.
Speaker 3: Now we are it at all. We are handing down.
Speaker 2: It's crazy, not just your faces, like people still whole faces.
Speaker 2: But then they say your personalities like every yeah, damn
Speaker 2: we all do that shit.
Speaker 3: That's great.
Speaker 2: I like sour stuff. My daughter likes sour stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that's like the most basic, like little shit.
Speaker 2: You watch how your kids sit, and then you like,
Speaker 2: if your wife catches a picture of you and your kid,
Speaker 2: you guys are sitting the exact same way, and you
Speaker 2: guys are and I don't know if it's because you're
Speaker 2: mimicking your dad you're watching Are you watching your mom
Speaker 2: or whatever? Probably it's just my kids. The stuff they're
Speaker 2: saying now is so fucking funny, and I'm like, they
Speaker 2: just have this like are they just is the witty thing?
Speaker 3: Just know they're just.
Speaker 1: Humor is so interesting to me too, because how much
Speaker 1: of humor is like I think some of it might
Speaker 1: be genetic, but how much of it is just like
Speaker 1: environmental and how you processed what happens.
Speaker 3: I think it's you.
Speaker 2: Think it's all got to be genetic because they're funny
Speaker 2: at all. They're not even in an environment. But like
Speaker 2: my mom is not my grandpa's. I think it's hilarious.
Speaker 3: I think it's genetic, but I think it's circumstance that
Speaker 3: that advances it, right, right, I think where the people
Speaker 3: who are born funny are born funny, but it requires
Speaker 3: the right combination cocktail of ship around you to really
Speaker 3: activate that power. Ratherwise you're just like a dude.
Speaker 2: Who you meet those people there's nature and nurture, they
Speaker 2: go together.
Speaker 3: You meet those people who like don't see themselves as funny,
Speaker 3: but every time they talk, it's like a little bit.
Speaker 2: Hilarious because nobody who's there telling them.
Speaker 1: You're a very funny person. You should and they don't
Speaker 1: think to monetize it because it's like a thing.
Speaker 2: That's just not even in their willhouse.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, they're like, I got a job.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: Like my kids probably into it because their mom's in
Speaker 2: production that she's a writer. Their dad is it, so
Speaker 2: they're like, yeah, we can, we can act a goddamn
Speaker 2: matter of fact, I have to go up to the school
Speaker 2: until my son time and place because.
Speaker 3: He's at school.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's at school. He's killing though, So he's riding
Speaker 2: the fucking Everybody thinks I'm hilarious and that even the
Speaker 2: principle is working. Like She's like, I have boys. I
Speaker 2: get it. But I had to tell him, like, you
Speaker 2: can't say these because the stuff I let them get
Speaker 2: away with, you do house. No, it's the jokes he's saying.
Speaker 2: I'm like, broyeah, I can't say that at school.
Speaker 3: All we we desperately need to. We're gonna come back.
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk to Chiampo about his conspiracy theory, which
Speaker 3: we haven't even discussed yet. More More, my mama told me,
Speaker 3: get all none of this. Motherfucker.
Speaker 2: I will kick your face off hitch you in your face,
Speaker 2: with your face? Why'd you pick that verseion? The first
Speaker 2: six was fire, the first six in the Glasses, I
Speaker 2: was all in. Then I remember on episode six or seven,
Speaker 2: that's when it went off.
Speaker 5: I think when they introduced the little Man was when
Speaker 5: I was like seven, okay.
Speaker 1: That was when I was like, this is starting rate
Speaker 1: it in.
Speaker 2: It got out of the first five was like, it
Speaker 2: was a good time.
Speaker 1: Which one was the one that ended?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, a rubber rubber, rubber?
Speaker 2: Like it was within the first five that was I
Speaker 2: would tell you the chapters were in the first five,
Speaker 2: you weren't going crazy five I was.
Speaker 1: I think I similarly was excited.
Speaker 3: I was taking it seriously for the first like five
Speaker 3: or six, and then I think as soon as the
Speaker 3: little person.
Speaker 2: Came and then I kept watching for the comedy. I
Speaker 2: want to see how ridiculous this is gonna go and
Speaker 2: that is. But then it became so funny. It is
Speaker 2: very it's so funny.
Speaker 3: And I I'm embarrassed to say this. I think I
Speaker 3: was too self serious in terms of like writing at
Speaker 3: the time that I couldn't enjoy the comedy of trapped
Speaker 3: in comedy.
Speaker 1: It was that poetry at the time.
Speaker 3: I think I was more into poetry when trapped in
Speaker 3: the clauset is happening?
Speaker 1: When you were in poetry, did you feel like it
Speaker 1: was hard to be hilarious?
Speaker 3: And yeah, I've never I've never written a funny poem. Wow,
Speaker 3: I didn't know that. I don't I don't write funny poems.
Speaker 2: I don't know these poems, my niggas. You gonna feel
Speaker 2: it in your soul, Homie. I'm sorry if it came
Speaker 2: off aggressive. I just wanted you to understand I'm telling
Speaker 2: about heartstrings.
Speaker 1: That was crazy energy.
Speaker 3: I really, yeah, I don't know what I truly and
Speaker 3: I wish I had, Like I have friends who are
Speaker 3: like very capable of moving in and out of that.
Speaker 3: But I think I took poetry And it's part of
Speaker 3: why I don't think I was like a phenomenal poet
Speaker 3: is because I took it to only be defined within
Speaker 3: certain parameters, right, And I think to really become like
Speaker 3: a phenomenal motherfucker on the page, you have to be
Speaker 3: able to explode beyond sort of your traditional realms of thinking.
Speaker 5: Because that's what that's what my that's what my question
Speaker 5: is is like when you were folks, because I've never
Speaker 5: had any other creative pursuit other than comedy.
Speaker 1: I wasn't like, I wasn't like in drama in school.
Speaker 5: I was never trying to be like comedy has only
Speaker 5: been That's the only place I've ever like pushed it
Speaker 5: when you were doing something else. You I talk to
Speaker 5: you all the time in your it like, see you're
Speaker 5: so funny. Was it like hard to cut that off?
Speaker 3: I think I still thought of myself as a funny person,
Speaker 3: so I was still getting the funny off talking to
Speaker 3: people and like being silly. But when it came to
Speaker 3: sitting on the down to write the poem, the poem
Speaker 3: was serious.
Speaker 1: That's crazy.
Speaker 2: That's because I agree, I think you are hilarious.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like it's like it's like I can't imagine
Speaker 5: you not rand because it seems you.
Speaker 2: Know, you're an acting role. I'm like, this is just funny.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's appreciated.
Speaker 2: I was a very serious writer.
Speaker 1: I feel like if had I met you juring poetry,
Speaker 1: we wouldn't hung out.
Speaker 3: Probably yeah, because.
Speaker 5: You were like because you would have had this stuff
Speaker 5: that you did, you like stuff it down and you're
Speaker 5: like this, what was your poetry name.
Speaker 3: We don't got to talk about now you're being whatever,
Speaker 3: but you're like, this is this is, this is now,
Speaker 3: you've been a SA tour, this is like.
Speaker 1: Like you weren't like yeah, because I've never met Do
Speaker 1: you remember in the Bay Area doing slim poetry ship
Speaker 1: sometimes I did.
Speaker 2: Used to go to the open mic that printed you.
Speaker 3: To run Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm talking about Yeah.
Speaker 2: He used to run with Berkeley or Oakland Oakland offer
Speaker 2: right off, right off the bar, and I would I
Speaker 2: would go. I would go to that open mic. I
Speaker 2: love that mic though.
Speaker 1: It was good, But do you remember talking to those guys?
Speaker 1: It was like they were just so serious. It was
Speaker 1: not like comics either, don't Yeah, but at least comics.
Speaker 3: Are funny, but they're they're not at that. I think
Speaker 3: there are a lot of I want to be clear.
Speaker 3: I think there are a lot of poets and and
Speaker 3: sort of writers in those spaces that are funny as fun.
Speaker 3: But I think there's a level of sincerity attached to
Speaker 3: it that is a very different balance than what we have,
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like we comedians sort of
Speaker 3: live at this ironic distance from almost everything that allows
Speaker 3: us to just laugh at things that otherwise people don't
Speaker 3: find funny or don't notice. Right, poets are noticing all
Speaker 3: of the things, but instead of judging it, they are
Speaker 3: warm to it. They are open to it. They are
Speaker 3: welcoming that. And that's a different energy.
Speaker 1: Couldn't be me, Yeah, it's knowing you pretty well at
Speaker 1: this point.
Speaker 3: Couldn't be you.
Speaker 2: No, I was in the wrong space. You're a nasty No.
Speaker 2: I was in the wrong space.
Speaker 3: It's why I was ever going to be great, because
Speaker 3: if I said what I really wanted to say, that's
Speaker 3: what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: You shouldn't write that down.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. So were you ever in the
Speaker 1: poetry space with poets like these fucking losers?
Speaker 3: Yeah? But but also I was like there were a
Speaker 3: lot of people who I was like, Oh, I fuck
Speaker 3: with this dude, I fuck with that person. This is
Speaker 3: really cool. But this collective like let's all hold hands
Speaker 3: in kumbayan, that's like, that's counter to your spirit. It
Speaker 3: was bad for my spirit, and I didn't have the
Speaker 3: strength to recognize it until I got interesting.
Speaker 1: Do you ever think you could dabble?
Speaker 10: Now?
Speaker 3: I do, Like I can go like my homie Sully
Speaker 3: shout out to Sully runs like a slam in Bloomington,
Speaker 3: and like I can go and be a fan now
Speaker 3: in a way that where I can just go like, oh,
Speaker 3: this is great, this is uh, this is really cool
Speaker 3: that people are writing and activating and doing all the
Speaker 3: shit that they're excited about. But if there's any competitive
Speaker 3: nature inside of me, I get I get.
Speaker 1: Vile where you're like, my shit real.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then I'll start saying you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: And that's the thing about this art is I don't
Speaker 1: think like to like focus on humor, man. I think
Speaker 1: it's something that can't be suppressed in a real way. No,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like it's like I like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I just I can't imagine like had I gotten to
Speaker 1: some other form of art, I don't think I would
Speaker 1: have gotten very far, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: had it been like have been a painter, or like
Speaker 1: I write short stories or you rience you.
Speaker 3: Were gonna play basketball in your mind, I'm not saying.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like no, when I got when I got to college,
Speaker 2: you see, like I was like, at best, I'll be overseas,
Speaker 2: but I'm not. I'm not going to the league.
Speaker 3: I'm not saying once once your dreams are becoming or
Speaker 3: hitting their top, I'm saying that when you're in a kid, you.
Speaker 2: Know what's funny. As a kid, it was either going
Speaker 2: to be sports or entertainment. I was held goofy at school.
Speaker 3: People who run to me.
Speaker 2: Now I'll be like, oh man, it just makes so
Speaker 2: much sense, bro, you should have me dying in elementary
Speaker 2: Like it was always I did two things very well,
Speaker 2: sports and being funny. That is it. I mean, I
Speaker 2: have I have other arts stuff that I can do.
Speaker 2: I just didn't want to do them. Like I can sing,
Speaker 2: but I just don't. I was never comfortable with it.
Speaker 2: Say you can sing, yeah, I was never comfortable with it.
Speaker 1: Man, I can't.
Speaker 2: And so I was just like that's like so the
Speaker 2: singing was like poetry. It's like I can do this thing,
Speaker 2: but I don't. Like I don't this saying I was
Speaker 2: always uncomfort like comedy, I'm never uncomfortable when I was singing.
Speaker 2: I was always uncomfortable, never uncomfortable doing comedy.
Speaker 3: I spend the most the time uncomfortable.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm only I'm only uncomfortable when I'm around comics
Speaker 2: because they're weird.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'm uncomfortable. Let it out. I just like,
Speaker 1: like I get uncomfortable. Like if I had my choice
Speaker 1: stand up comedy would not that wouldn't be it.
Speaker 3: I just can't.
Speaker 5: No, you know what I'm saying, Like, I just can't.
Speaker 5: I just I kind of have to. But like, man,
Speaker 5: I'm not I gotta get up here. I don't know
Speaker 5: these people. Oh no, in Detroit or wherever.
Speaker 2: I like, I'm about to say some goofy ship. You

Speaker 2: the wildest thing and you guys can be like, yeah,
Speaker 2: this is a That's the part that is.
Speaker 1: The funnest part. It's like affirming. It's like, Okay, thank god,
Speaker 1: I'm not maybe the psychopath.
Speaker 2: Laughing at this, Like you guys think it to you
Speaker 2: just you'll lose your job.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's true. That's true.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I have so much fun.
Speaker 3: I know I have fun.
Speaker 1: I have fun, But like, comfortable is not what I'm.
Speaker 2: So comfortable on stage, it's off stage wrong uncomfortable.
Speaker 3: Kean, you came to us today with the conspiracy that
Speaker 3: that I'll be honest, you don't give a fuck about
Speaker 3: and we don't give a fuck about. This has been
Speaker 3: a fine conversation regard that we've been having a great time, y'all,
Speaker 3: don't my mama told me.
Speaker 2: To suck a dick, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Let go and we should get that old older woman
Speaker 3: to record or saying suck a dick in the place
Speaker 3: of me saying it, so that it told me. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and either way, we need to take one more break
Speaker 3: and then we're gonna do a voicemail together and then
Speaker 3: that'll wrap the whole thing up.
Speaker 12: Ke or my mama told me, I'm annoyed because I
Speaker 12: know all of these saying that you play.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I know all these of a certain age.
Speaker 1: Man our references are very Yeah, it's all.
Speaker 2: We had some classics, though. I still I show my
Speaker 2: kids afro Endo the other the day. They almost threw up.
Speaker 2: Really from I show my kids all the old stuff.
Speaker 2: They love it. Really, they watch like they watched ninety sitcoms.
Speaker 2: I showed all this stuff from e Bomb's World, like
Speaker 2: all the baby dying. They be like, Dad, this is incredible.
Speaker 2: They actually don't like a lot of their stuff. Whoa
Speaker 2: like when like music I'm telling you they're old. Like
Speaker 2: when I play music, I let them choose because I
Speaker 2: don't want to be like like oh back of my day.
Speaker 2: Introduce it to them and they choose that over like
Speaker 2: they watch Fresh Prints every night, they watch like family matter.
Speaker 2: They watch that makes me feels.
Speaker 1: That makes me feel good because I think as nineties kids,
Speaker 1: we we want to be like no our time kind
Speaker 1: of for pop culture was objectively the best in America, but.
Speaker 2: Even our parents and the everybody then that time was
Speaker 2: like that's how fe reverence. There's so by everybody. There
Speaker 2: was this article seventies and nineties are always like the
Speaker 2: two the everybody's like they didn't miss.
Speaker 5: There was this article where it was talking about there's
Speaker 5: this idea of like in design of everything, there's form
Speaker 5: versus function, and the nineties was when form met function,
Speaker 5: like like on the Perfect Access and then post that
Speaker 5: it's like spun out. But like that's why that's why
Speaker 5: aesthetically like so much of the nineties stuff is so good,
Speaker 5: Like it's not just like it's not.
Speaker 1: Just music, it's cars, it's media, it's like all these things.
Speaker 3: I think there something happened once we started being able
Speaker 3: to like our cameras became so high definition that they
Speaker 3: started to feel they lost some of like the comedic
Speaker 3: distance that you need, right, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: where like everything just feels so sexy and intimate now
Speaker 3: in a way that like makes it not as funny
Speaker 3: as what Family Matters was in nineteen ninety whatever the
Speaker 3: fuck right where it's just like that is the exact
Speaker 3: amount of technology we have, and it's the exactly.
Speaker 2: Those dummies was funny every every time.
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying, because we just.
Speaker 2: We just watched the Family Matter, I mean Fresh Prince
Speaker 2: episode when they went to Vegas. Yeah, when they did
Speaker 2: the Tonto dance, which is still famous today. Right when
Speaker 2: they threw Carlton dummy against my kids, lost it, lost it.
Speaker 1: I love a dummy falling out of.
Speaker 2: It was so obvious. It was so like bringing back
Speaker 2: all that when you could see the stunt double bring
Speaker 2: that back. It was ridiculous.
Speaker 3: That's what technologies to advance, and so now we we've
Speaker 3: lost that.
Speaker 2: Going back, we were watching True Lies.
Speaker 3: We were with.
Speaker 10: Bro.
Speaker 2: They didn't even bother trying when he's riding on the horse.
Speaker 2: If you paused the movie, it's a completely different dude,
Speaker 2: and we only know because we saw it line. We're like,
Speaker 2: that is not arnold and it just who cares? It
Speaker 2: was amazing, hilarious. That's Godfrey. It's hilarious.
Speaker 10: Bro.
Speaker 2: The stunt doubles, amazing dummies and stunt Doubles bring back obvious.
Speaker 3: We're gonna we're gonna do a voicemail together. We're gonna
Speaker 3: listen to one of our listeners sweet voices. Can we
Speaker 3: do the food one this time?
Speaker 12: Absolutely?
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 10: It's crazy being called a freak bitch on a Tuesday
Speaker 10: afternoon and I'm just trying to work.
Speaker 2: We didn't tell you fellas.
Speaker 10: I just want to say, y'all podcast is definitely like
Speaker 10: my favorite find of twenty twenty five. YouTube algorithm blessed
Speaker 10: me and I've been rocking ever since, so shout out
Speaker 10: to y'all show. I definitely called the wrong number. First.
Speaker 10: I thought with some black shit like mama, m A
Speaker 10: m A, but it was moms. So there's that. We
Speaker 10: learned something every day anyway.
Speaker 1: I had a theory, you can't be mad that we
Speaker 1: didn't get the exact perfect phone number. It was a
Speaker 1: Google number. It's you want to it's a sex line.
Speaker 3: Mama want we we gotta we got what we got.
Speaker 3: We got what we got. Yeah, don't judge that she
Speaker 3: seems nice. Continue, yeah, please.
Speaker 10: Anyway, I had a theory, y'all, So listen. I am
Speaker 10: a tall person. I'm a tall lady, and when I
Speaker 10: was grown up, no one was really tall with me. Right,
Speaker 10: I'm forty one. I feel like you know, I was
Speaker 10: definitely always ahead of the class, taller than the teacher
Speaker 10: even right, taller than most of the boys in class.
Speaker 10: When you look around, all of these kids are hugh
Speaker 10: mong is. Now we always say like, oh, it's something
Speaker 10: to meat. They're doing something to the food. They're definitely
Speaker 10: doing in the food. They're definitely doing something.
Speaker 2: To the food.
Speaker 10: Absolutely, But what if they're just giving up for the
Speaker 10: second round of slavery in America? So they got to
Speaker 10: make us all big as fuck again. There's gonna be
Speaker 10: like slavery drafts or some ship because otherwise make it
Speaker 10: make sense where with all these tall people when I
Speaker 10: was growing up. AnyWho, I love you guys. Keep doing
Speaker 10: what you're doing. I didn't say my name in the beginning.
Speaker 10: It's Divanna. I love you guys, Thank you so much.
Speaker 1: By thank you First of all, how tall is she?
Speaker 1: That she was taller than the teachers?
Speaker 2: Yeah, six foot or at least at least of people.
Speaker 2: Six foot is like the normals. Like no that that
Speaker 2: normals like five nights.
Speaker 3: Six foot is not even close. It's very it's like two.
Speaker 1: Yeah, people are like stupid about height right now.
Speaker 3: The the the feeling that I the sick feeling I
Speaker 3: had for those little fellow teachers that have Divonna and
Speaker 3: there his class.
Speaker 1: She seems sweet though. Do you think she was like
Speaker 1: going off on them?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 2: I think she seems like just men's ego though.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, a little girl is taller than you.
Speaker 3: I think that's really hard.
Speaker 2: The teachern't male teachers used to be insecure.
Speaker 3: And I think the way that the kids, the kids
Speaker 3: are constantly looking for a weakness in you. And the
Speaker 3: second that the tallest girl in class is bigger than
Speaker 3: you and middle school, we would know we're not doing
Speaker 3: your homework. No, damn, you know what I mean? Like,
Speaker 3: that's a hard life.
Speaker 1: Really are the only people who can make me feel
Speaker 1: bad for a teacher? Yeah, I really don't like them.
Speaker 2: It's a really hard job.
Speaker 5: No, I had a bad run. Those are my cops.
Speaker 5: I didn't experience a lot of police brutality growing up.
Speaker 5: I experienced a lot of teachers being not not great.
Speaker 1: I tend to feel like it's a position of people
Speaker 1: that we deify when a lot of times it's just
Speaker 1: a person with a job or I think that, like, uh,
Speaker 1: I think that the harm that they can cause, Oh,
Speaker 1: it really goes under the radar a lot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that is your experience with the teachers is the
Speaker 3: Atlanta Hawks just just not good the whole.
Speaker 5: Time, the whole I had to run a really really
Speaker 5: bad I'm sure there's some great ones.
Speaker 3: Sure there's some good cops. No, let me see what
Speaker 3: happened to me. Yeah.
Speaker 5: The point is, here's what I think. I like her
Speaker 5: conspiracy theory. I do think that white people are also
Speaker 5: getting bigger.
Speaker 2: They are. That's that's why that's the flaw. And I
Speaker 2: think it's all for the Olympics.
Speaker 1: I would I'm okay with that.
Speaker 2: Oh you think this is just because we're losing an education.
Speaker 2: We're losing, but we keep dominating in sports, and I
Speaker 2: think that's what it's for. It's like we're gonna win
Speaker 2: it something.
Speaker 1: Do you think that we continue to dominate its sports
Speaker 1: if people want to come.
Speaker 3: Here less, Yeah, because we're still going to be the
Speaker 3: major broadcaster of this thing, are we? Uh, China is
Speaker 3: gonna come get that? You don't think Asia is gonna.
Speaker 1: Come get that.
Speaker 3: I don't think they. I don't think they work in
Speaker 3: entertainment the way we do yet. Oh okay, I.
Speaker 1: Don't think it's I don't mean the medals, I mean
Speaker 1: the like running of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think once they start cooking in entertainment the way.
Speaker 2: We're the freedom we have first of all, so how
Speaker 2: can you do it.
Speaker 3: You need to be able to talk a little bit
Speaker 3: of shit and make it provocative.
Speaker 2: And I don't think that they hain't got none of it.
Speaker 1: I have been saying, once we lose entertainment, that's it.
Speaker 3: That's it.
Speaker 1: That's it.
Speaker 5: Like once we stop dictating pop culture for the world,
Speaker 5: I don't think we I'm not saying we become like
Speaker 5: the worst country in the world or anything like that,
Speaker 5: but I think that that's like a gap that doesn't
Speaker 5: get and you see it, and this is.
Speaker 1: Listen, I understand. Make you sound like very conservative or whatever.
Speaker 1: There's never been so much foreign influence in American pop
Speaker 1: culture in my entire life now, the grip is but
Speaker 1: even but even, like the Internet's been around.
Speaker 2: For a while, yeah, and we when the Internet started,
Speaker 2: we were like the catalysts for it, so we still
Speaker 2: had our stuff. These kids are like only Internet their
Speaker 2: whole lives.
Speaker 1: There's also a level of quality that we are not.
Speaker 1: We are not achieving that we used to achieve.
Speaker 3: The biggest the biggest movie hit last year was or
Speaker 3: this past year is K pop demon Hunter, And I
Speaker 3: think that is being served up to kids for a
Speaker 3: specific reason to your point of like, this is a
Speaker 3: mixing of like, hey, we do America is not in charge,
Speaker 3: yep of the media landscape the way that you originally
Speaker 3: thought it was. And now I think that's dope in
Speaker 3: terms of like access as a person who throw I
Speaker 3: fucking love that I can watch whatever anime I want
Speaker 3: now for the first time in my life. But on
Speaker 3: the flip side, I do go, well, fucking you know,
Speaker 3: Demon Slayer, it was the biggest movie last year, right,
Speaker 3: And that's that's weird that that suddenly is like the
Speaker 3: way the game works.
Speaker 1: We're still the funniest country.
Speaker 2: We have the freedom to do so.
Speaker 1: I mean there's free countries that aren't a funny as.
Speaker 2: I know, they didn't grow up with as much like trauma. Yeah,
Speaker 2: British people country trauma. You know what I mean, Like
Speaker 2: we have so much to draw from from our bullshit.
Speaker 2: We're so fucked up that it's like, oh we got
Speaker 2: a lave. It's just to get through our goddamn government. Sorry,
Speaker 2: goddamn you know whatever, like.
Speaker 3: And nobody's coming for us. Yeah, although I mean on
