None of it feels right, 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:37.160 and I hate saying it out loud. That said, I 0:02:37.200 --> 0:02:41.640 do like what you wrote here, Goff. You wrote us 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:45.680 a letter that says, dear Langston, David, and you start hot. 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:48.919 You come in very hot with this ship. You say, 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:57.840 hypothesis Steve Harvey is an energy vampire. Yeah, and that 0:02:57.840 --> 0:02:58.760 that piqued my interest. 0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:02.919 I was already in. I was already had a hypothesis, Steve, 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.760 I was always gonna hear you out. I was always 0:03:07.800 --> 0:03:08.600 gonna hear you out. 0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:12.040 If your hypothesizing about Steve Harvey, You've got my ear 0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:12.760 for sure. 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:13.320 Come in. 0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:16.080 He goes on to say, I had been thinking about 0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.760 this for a while. We know you had, and wanted 0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:22.920 to know what you thought. Is it possible that Steve Harvey, 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:27.200 early in his career met upon meeting Richard Pryor, attempting 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:31.120 to absorb and replace him, but was caught in the act, 0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:36.480 thus leaving Prior in an ailing state. Holy shit. Harvey 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:39.440 then would go on to feed off of Prior in 0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:45.320 a tracula type fashion, gaining a familiar mustache and eyebrows 0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:50.520 and even similar comedy beats, but never truly completing the process, 0:03:50.600 --> 0:03:54.880 despite self proclaiming himself as an original king of comedy. 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:59.120 After Prior's passing, Harvey didn't have anyone left to absorb 0:03:59.240 --> 0:04:03.120 powers from, lost his hair and turned to a daytime 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:08.200 network television working multiple turn two daytime network television, working 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:12.160 multiple shows at living and living off the energy his 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:17.119 live studio audiences and family feud contestants just to stay 0:04:17.160 --> 0:04:21.000 alive again. Just the theory, g Off. 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.320 So I want to say, first of all, I love 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:27.840 this theory. Second of all, g Off gotta leave the house. 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:30.880 Dog gotta yeah, yeah, you gotta very alone. 0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:31.080 Bit. 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.839 You gotta get out of the basement. This is not 0:04:34.200 --> 0:04:38.560 a good look. Your mom pissed. You still live there, bro, 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:40.520 you gotta go out and live live. 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:44.280 Them on man. Just because you write hypothesis and the email, 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:45.800 don't mean you ain't in your basement. 0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:48.720 No, I could feel I could feel the cheeto dust 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:54.840 from here. It's like a hoof. But it's this took work. Yeah, No, 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:57.360 that's what I mean. Like most emails are like something 0:04:57.560 --> 0:04:59.240 you could tell somebody like wrote it on their lunch 0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:02.640 hower or something like that. This was this was This 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:04.039 is a fully formed idea. 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:08.040 This was weighing heavy on Geoff's heart in a way that, uh, 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:10.800 that is a little unnerving. But I also think it 0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:13.400 leaves us with a little bit of responsibility to keep 0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:17.039 g Off happy so that he doesn't become, uh, something 0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:19.400 far more sinister out in society. 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:25.919 No, there's definitely a possibility he could kill us and him. 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:28.919 This is one of the first people I've been genuinely 0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:31.760 afraid of that's ever written us speaking. 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.400 Can I tell you something funny.

Here's what I love. 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:13.840 I love the the the basic framing of the hypothesis 0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:17.679 of Steve Harvey is an energy vampire, and it does 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.760 that rings sort of true, like he is a person 0:07:21.760 --> 0:07:25.679 who has sort of built a career on a very 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:29.280 specific type of hosting that is exceptional. 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:31.160 I don't want to even begin for. 0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:33.320 A second to suggest that he is not good at 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:36.120 what he's doing, but it does feel like he is 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:41.040 almost using the power of these unsuspecting white people to 0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:45.600 sort of like build up more of his his own essence. 0:07:46.120 --> 0:07:49.880 And it even the transitions we've seen of the big 0:07:49.880 --> 0:07:55.040 ass suits into becoming almost like this weird old nigga model. 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.200 Yeah, he's like, it's sexy.

No, Yeah, it feels like. 0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:33.840 It feels like it came out of a cryogenic chamber 0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:35.880 before it was ready fully cooked. 0:09:36.000 --> 0:09:41.600 Yeah, it looks like stiff, you know what it looks like. 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:45.080 It looks like somebody who's like not terrible but not 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:49.680 great at clay. Maybe yeah, like you're in clay too, 0:09:49.720 --> 0:09:51.840 but you're not in advanced clay like that's. 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:54.600 Yeah, and you're the best in your class. You still 0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:57.840 are not particularly like you're not. This isn't gonna be 0:09:57.840 --> 0:09:59.800 a career for you in six months. 0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:01.120 You you know what I mean. You're as good as 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:03.440 you can be at that point, and you're just trying 0:10:03.440 --> 0:10:05.760 to get at the house anyways, get ready, get it 0:10:05.760 --> 0:10:08.880 away from these kids. Sometimes this always started as a hobby. 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:12.400 And and you're grateful that you've advanced, and your teacher 0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:13.880 seems impressed by your work. 0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:15.480 Exactly that, exactly that. 0:10:16.160 --> 0:10:19.840 Yeah, No, it's it's fucked up down there, uh for. 0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:27.080 Old Stevie hunder his shirt anywhere but below the collar, 0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:31.480 beneath that big ass suit. Well now it's like it's 0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:33.720 like tight page. I don't like him sexy. I really 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:35.720 don't like him sexy. I don't Oh, you don't like 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:37.200 him sexy? I don't like it at all. 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:42.480 I I actually do like him sexy. I think it's 0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:45.720 funny in a way that I never expected he could 0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:48.360 be funny. I think it was it had become sort 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:50.600 of a hacky trope to make fun of his big 0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:54.600 suits and all the buttons and the shine. And now 0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:58.200 we get to make fun of a different version of 0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:02.080 Steve Harvey where he's like wearing like bell bottoms and 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:04.800 then open belly belly shirt and it's like. 0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:11.640 Huh, what, what the fuck is this? What the fuck 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:19.280 is this? Grandpa? Why are you? Why are you doing that? 0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:22.800 That's very true. I actually really like him sexy. But 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.920 but I get why other people don't. I get it. 0:11:26.200 --> 0:11:29.240 That said, I think I stop. 0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:32.800 I think I start to jump off of this conspiracy, 0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:35.680 or rather I have trouble inside of this conspiracy. When 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:40.679 Richard Pryor is introduced as the source of his strength. 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:46.079 Yeah, because also why only prior, like he spent a 0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:49.320 lot of time around a lot of people. Like if 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:52.680 it was me and I was concocting, I would have 0:11:52.760 --> 0:11:58.000 said that he sucked Merlin Santana to death. WHOA, that's what? 0:11:58.160 --> 0:12:03.520 Because remember Merlin was young when that show started, right, Also, 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.520 somebody in the barbershops said that that's Jewel Santana's little brother, 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:10.440 and at first I got mad, but I was like, 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:14.560 maybe or big brother. But I don't think Jewel Santana's 0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:15.960 real last name is Santana. 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:19.600 Yeah, I was that. I don't think he's Santana legally. 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:23.120 And I'm not even sure Merlin Santana was Santana legally. 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:29.120 I mean, he wasn't Merlin legally. But then, now that 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:31.800 you think about it, they they they do look a 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:34.000 little bit of light. It's like one of those New 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.360 York Speak Spanish too kind of vibe. 0:12:37.280 --> 0:12:43.760 No, they're they're not not Laarn. Luis James is Joelle's 0:12:44.000 --> 0:12:48.600 government name. And what about Ewis, It's probably Lewis Laarn. 0:12:48.760 --> 0:12:51.600 Lewis James is Joel Santana's government name. 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:57.800 Okay, and what about Merlin Santana. That's Olivia Orlando Santana. 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:13.840 Santando is, Oh that's his real name, Santana. 0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:16.760 Fuck yeah, man, I would have never guessed that in 0:13:16.840 --> 0:13:20.760 a million years that Nigga was too magical for this earth. Yeah. 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:23.920 He was also like maybe a little too handsome. 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:25.280 He was gorgeous. 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:29.080 He was really a pretty guy. He was a. 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:32.640 Gorgeous man, and he he could hit them punchlines in 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:34.640 a way that I don't think we give him enough 0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:35.080 credit for. 0:13:35.240 --> 0:13:39.040 Merlin Santana was hilarious. He was really funny. He's also 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:42.160 comedic timing. He was also a child actor. Remember he 0:13:42.280 --> 0:13:43.320 was also like he was on. 0:13:43.320 --> 0:13:48.439 The No, he was a sexy person for a long 0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:52.680 time in media. You know what, Yeah, sorry, go ahead, No, 0:13:52.880 --> 0:13:55.800 I said everything I needed to say. I wanted to 0:13:55.840 --> 0:13:56.960 fuck him for years. 0:13:58.040 --> 0:14:00.839 I just I feel like Merlin Santana, not a lot 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:07.720 of people make the jump from this, yeah, yeah, no, please, 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:10.440 not a lot of people. A lot of people make 0:14:10.520 --> 0:14:12.160 the jump from a sexy boy to. 0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:18.640 Know. 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:23.480 I think that's true. 0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:27.080 But you know, I mean, I just I'm you one bit. 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:31.120 I agree with you. I think Jonathan Taylor Thomas is 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:33.280 a great example of somebody that could not make that 0:14:33.320 --> 0:14:37.240 transitions all of what they empowered him to be. 0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:39.760 I think Macaulay Kulchin. 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:42.760 You know, there's there's a there's a fair amount of 0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:45.440 examples of kids who sort of got positioned as like 0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:50.040 the the teen magazine heart throb that then just become 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:51.840 duds of like adults. 0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:56.720 Oh yeah, that little boy from the Fresh Friends now 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:03.240 Little Nikki. Yeah, he looks like the Little Niki because 0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:04.400 that nigga looks like a devil. 0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:09.280 His head just got wider and wider. 0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:15.200 Shape didn't change though, No, he is. He is gruesome. 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:23.720 And my favorite part of that, my favorite part of 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:27.000 that Fresh Print special is when they bring him back 0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:30.600 out and you can see every member of the cast 0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:33.480 have to like hold back their their. 0:15:33.400 --> 0:15:37.200 Fucking ewes and yucks when he comes from behind the 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:40.320 wall because he's just so hard to look at. They're like, 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:43.520 oh wow, oh hey Nikki, Hey little Nikki. 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:48.760 Hey what you were doing? Oh that's you? Oh good 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:49.200 for you. 0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:51.760 You're still here, Okay. 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:56.520 Man Will Smith didn't want to hug him, No, they 0:15:56.640 --> 0:16:11.440 just tapped him up like a stranger. Fucking Google, Denver, Colorado. 0:16:11.800 --> 0:16:15.800 Are you lucky? Or what my Mama told me? Is 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:19.880 doing a live show this Friday night as part of 0:16:19.920 --> 0:16:23.000 the High Plains Comedy Festival. We're gonna be at the 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:27.040 High Dive at seven South Broadway in Denver Friday night, 0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:30.800 September twenty second, eight to nine thirty. For tickets, go 0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:35.000 ahead and go on to High Claytonscomedyfestival dot com. That's 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:39.600 h I g H P L A I and Ascomedyfestival 0:16:39.760 --> 0:16:44.320 dot Com. 0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:47.360 No, I think to your point, there there are other 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:52.600 people who are likely a source for Steve Harvey's energy 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:56.200 vampire shit, and I don't know him and Richard Pryor 0:16:56.800 --> 0:17:01.000 to have maintained any version of like a d relationship 0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:06.760 to justify that connection. Even Bernie Mack feels like a 0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:10.719 go to then Richer Pryor. 0:17:11.320 --> 0:17:13.199 Well, I mean did I and I don't. Maybe I 0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:15.920 don't know my history. Well, no, because Steve Harvey kind 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:19.160 of came up way late. Steve Harvey kind of rose 0:17:19.160 --> 0:17:22.000 the prominence in the nineties right like started in the eighties, 0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:25.120 roaster prominence in the nineties. That's like they probably never 0:17:25.200 --> 0:17:27.000 really interaction. 0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:30.560 But I think I think if I am playing a 0:17:30.560 --> 0:17:32.840 little bit of the game that our boy g offf 0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:37.199 here is playing, I think there is a logic that 0:17:37.359 --> 0:17:40.439 says that if I'm taking his energy, I am taking 0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:45.040 it slowly. And so we're seeing Richard Pryor slowly be 0:17:45.240 --> 0:17:49.240 depleted of sort of the character he started as as 0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:53.600 we're watching Steve Harvey rise to success, you know what 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:56.679 I mean, Like, think about Richard Pryor and Harlem Knights, 0:17:57.119 --> 0:17:59.720 that ain't the Richer Pryor we loved, you know what 0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:02.359 I mean. That's a much more timid sort of like 0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:04.560 ed Richer Pryor. 0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:08.000 I mean I do love that movie. But yeah, it's 0:18:08.040 --> 0:18:09.680 not the toy. 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:16.680 He's never he's never like fun in that movie. He's 0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:19.560 just a serious man kind of doing bits. 0:18:19.800 --> 0:18:24.240 Yeah, low energy, he's sort of slurring. Yeah. You know 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:26.000 what I liked was Brewster's Millions. 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:29.760 Okay, you're a big Richard Pryor film buff. 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:33.639 Don't make it like that. It wasn't shameful. 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.719 I'm just noticing how much you love the the the 0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:38.159 classics of Richard Pryor. 0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:41.480 Well, I like Brewster's Millions because when he got all 0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:44.199 that money, John Candy, who was a catcher on their 0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:48.480 baseball team, bought a chain with a catcher's mid on it. 0:18:48.960 --> 0:18:55.520 Like yeah, right, Okay, I didn't know this movie was 0:18:55.560 --> 0:19:02.479 gonna be relatable. Me and John Candy got the same plans. 0:19:02.520 --> 0:19:09.679 All right, So, g OFFF I guess personally, Well, what 0:19:09.760 --> 0:19:12.760 do you think we have not impacked your your position 0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:13.760 in this No? 0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:19.040 I don't think so. I don't. I I like, you know, 0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:23.200 a for effort. I love the imagination on this one. 0:19:23.680 --> 0:19:26.560 I love the distance that you had at Span. I don't, 0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:30.440 I don't. I just don't think this one has as 0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:35.240 much legs as maybe it could. Mm hmm, yeah, I think. 0:19:35.320 --> 0:19:38.280 I think if Goff, we are unaware of a connection 0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:42.880 between Steve Harvey and Richard Pryor that you know of, 0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:46.399 and clearly you've had time to think about this in 0:19:46.440 --> 0:19:50.640 a depth that we are unable to think about it. Virgins, 0:19:52.560 --> 0:19:57.040 I'm too busy, smash and puss Geoff. That said, if 0:19:57.080 --> 0:20:00.000 you are in fact aware of a connection that exists, 0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:02.080 we'd love to hear about it, because I do think 0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:04.800 maybe there's something to it if that connection is there. 0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:06.840 But without the connection, it's sort of hard to make 0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:09.960 that leap of Richard Pryor other than him just taking 0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:13.440 the mustache. And also, to be clear, Steve Harvey has 0:20:13.480 --> 0:20:16.360 been balled the entire time he was lying to us. 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:20.080 That was a wig throughout the entire Steve Harvey Show. 0:20:20.320 --> 0:20:22.840 It was a little final We wanted it to be it. 0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:27.199 He's come forward. We know now it was. That was 0:20:27.240 --> 0:20:31.840 a lie. Yeah, I man, it makes me worry for Martin. 0:20:32.960 --> 0:20:34.800 Oh you think Martin's lying to us too? 0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:37.480 I mean, remember how on point his hair. Nobody ever 0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:39.240 gives them credit for how good his hair was in 0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:39.720 that show. 0:20:39.840 --> 0:20:43.280 Yeah, you're the you're the biggest Martin haircut advocate I've 0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:43.840 ever met. 0:20:43.880 --> 0:20:46.800 If I'm being honest with you, it's it's so odd 0:20:46.800 --> 0:20:50.920 because to me it's so obviously, but people they really 0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:53.080 don't give him a shine for the like not a 0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:56.600 hair out of play, is crazy, perfectly sculpted. 0:20:57.480 --> 0:21:02.600 Yeah, I think Martin's natch hairline was was wider than 0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:05.720 the average black man wants theirs to be, and so 0:21:05.840 --> 0:21:08.159 they don't look to him as a source. 0:21:08.359 --> 0:21:09.720 Even though because it's not. 0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:13.520 It's not just a straight you know what I mean, 0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:17.960 like perfect lineup, but it was perfect for him, like 0:21:18.119 --> 0:21:20.080 he never had a hair out of place. It was 0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:22.879 a great haircut. But I would never go, like, you 0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:26.000 know what, I want my hairline to look like Martin Lawrence. 0:21:26.040 --> 0:21:28.800 Well, it's not just a hairline thing. It's a fade thing. 0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:32.159 It's a length was immaculate, like it's a there's a 0:21:32.240 --> 0:21:34.840 lot to it, you know that. I mean, come on, 0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:37.800 we all understand. Yeah, No, you don't have to convince me. 0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:40.399 I think I'm just saying that, Like when I list 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:44.359 my kings that I'm I'm going to point to and say, 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:46.879 if I had to remake my hair, I wanted to 0:21:46.920 --> 0:21:50.040 look like that. Martin Lawrence would never be that choice. 0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:52.480 Who's your number one? I just out of curiosity? 0:21:52.680 --> 0:21:55.440 Damn, that is a good question, and frankly, I don't 0:21:55.720 --> 0:21:58.240 I don't know that I have a great answer. I 0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:00.399 think there was a period where I thought Will Smith 0:22:00.440 --> 0:22:03.840 had a great haircut, But in retrospect, I don't think 0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:04.880 that that's true at all. 0:22:05.119 --> 0:22:07.360 I don't either. I think I think his I think 0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:09.600 his went further back than you would want it. 0:22:09.920 --> 0:22:14.280 Bad Boys era Will Smith, like the first Bad Boys movie. 0:22:14.640 --> 0:22:16.639 He had a pretty gorgeous haircut. 0:22:16.240 --> 0:22:18.920 In that movie. Was it just a high top fade? 0:22:19.119 --> 0:22:21.400 I don't know, man, it felt like there was more 0:22:21.480 --> 0:22:25.000 to it. You're you're being reductive. 0:22:29.200 --> 0:22:33.320 I celebrated your boy. Now, don't sorry, don't turn on me. 0:22:33.840 --> 0:22:36.600 You know who has a gorgeous haircut? Is uh? 0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:41.080 What's his name? Javonte? What's what's the nigga? F Yeah? 0:22:41.119 --> 0:22:47.879 The motherfucker from Moon Moonlight?

He that is a good fuck? 0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:56.040 What's his name? That is a good haircut. 0:22:56.160 --> 0:23:01.600 Okay, Oh, Travonte Rhodes, that's his name. Yeah, that is 0:23:01.760 --> 0:23:02.600 a good haircut. 0:23:02.720 --> 0:23:03.879 That shit is clean. 0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:06.320 It comes yeah, yeah, he always coming clean. 0:23:06.440 --> 0:23:09.000 Yeah, it's like everywhere it's supposed to be, because I've 0:23:09.000 --> 0:23:12.680 been noticing mine is like the whole thing isn't receding. 0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:15.639 But I got like a weird little chunk over here. 0:23:15.920 --> 0:23:18.040 And as I yeah, and as I get older, it's 0:23:18.040 --> 0:23:20.119 getting more and more prominent, which I don't care. I 0:23:20.440 --> 0:23:22.160 put the Beijing in. I don't give a ship. 0:23:22.280 --> 0:23:25.679 Oh yo, would you would you fly to Dubai and 0:23:25.680 --> 0:23:28.480 get it fits fixed?

It's not that it's like it's 0:23:35.240 --> 0:23:37.159 like because I just you can see it because I 0:23:37.200 --> 0:23:40.960 haven't had a cut. Yeah, yeah, it's it's just one problem. 0:23:41.160 --> 0:23:44.360 Like the other side doesn't have it, so it's like, nah, 0:23:44.400 --> 0:23:45.840 I think it's just like I just got to be 0:23:45.880 --> 0:23:48.400
