[00:00:00] Speaker A: The views and opinions expressed by the no nonsense show and its hosts do not necessarily reflect views consistent with political correctness or the Rare Sonnets podcast network. So to get the show started right, we want to wish any officers of the sensitivity police a heartfelt fuck you. [00:00:13] Speaker B: Did you say you had a fucking intro? [00:00:15] Speaker A: No, I didn't say. It's supposed to just happen. You ain't supposed to say anything. He's supposed to just pop. Somebody wrote an intro. What do they write? The holidays? Merry Christmas. So. But that doesn't mean that's a topic that you can't. You know, I was thinking such and such, such and such, but I thought one of you guys, when we got. [00:00:35] Speaker B: Out the truck, I could have swore you said I got a dope intro. [00:00:37] Speaker A: I didn't say that at all. I just said, what's up? I see right now, French Reggie can't be the killer. No, because killer want to kill. [00:00:44] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:00:45] Speaker A: French Reggie want to take the back. He want to just watch it. [00:00:48] Speaker B: He's the dude. [00:00:49] Speaker A: I'll be the driver. [00:01:07] Speaker B: You are listening to the no nonsense show. 10% less bullshit than any other podcast, guaranteed. That's where I was just watched fucking Iron man. And when he was in the cave. When he was in the cave with the indian dude and the indian dude was buying him time, the indian dude was chasing people, but he was shooting in the air. He didn't want to hit nobody for real, I guess that stain on his soul. So he's shooting like he's coming after you, but he's just shooting it in the air, right? I'm like, yeah, I don't know. That kind of. I mean, again, if you're shooting, you got to shoot at somebody, right? Because they're going to start shooting back, and if you're not plucking them off, you might get plucked. You might get Christmas. [00:01:49] Speaker A: Yes. [00:01:49] Speaker B: Yeah, man, listen, we still celebrating Jesus's birth? Yeah. [00:01:52] Speaker A: Okay. I don't think we even talk about Jesus anymore when it comes to Christmas. I think it's just about gift exchange, man. [00:01:58] Speaker B: You know, Jesus is the reason for the season. [00:02:00] Speaker A: That's what they used to. [00:02:01] Speaker C: I think Santa get all the props. [00:02:02] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:02:03] Speaker A: I didn't get anybody anything. [00:02:06] Speaker C: I didn't seen a lot of people dressed up like a fat, old white dude with a beard. And I didn't see no Jesus Christ. [00:02:11] Speaker A: As Jesus for Christmas. I don't think you go to the mall and throw. [00:02:19] Speaker B: That's Halloween. [00:02:21] Speaker C: But why not, though? [00:02:22] Speaker A: Yeah, because that's weird. [00:02:25] Speaker C: We're supposed to be celebrating his birth. [00:02:26] Speaker A: Jesus. [00:02:27] Speaker C: We're supposed to be celebrating his birth, but we're dressing up like a big white dude that's supposed to deliver presents to every kid on earth in one night somehow. [00:02:34] Speaker A: St. Nick. [00:02:35] Speaker B: Well, I watched the grinch that stole Christmas, the one with Jim Carrey. And in the beginning, that was the whole thing. Like, that. I think they were making note of, is that it's all about capitalism. Like, dude, register was overflowing. He's just taking money, money, money, and she's like something. He's like, no, this is. This is the reason for the season. We're just spinning. And this is what we know. You buy shit and you decorate. You do all that other shit. This is what makes Christmas Christmas low. Keto. Yeah. Candy cane Lane with Eddie Murphy? [00:03:08] Speaker A: No, that Christmas movie. [00:03:09] Speaker B: Yeah, on prime. [00:03:10] Speaker A: It's a new movie. [00:03:11] Speaker B: Yeah, it's pretty good. [00:03:12] Speaker A: Okay. [00:03:12] Speaker B: Pretty good? [00:03:13] Speaker A: Like, good like as in funny? [00:03:15] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean good as in good. I don't know what you mean. [00:03:17] Speaker C: Is it good? Taking into exception that it's like a PG kid movie, or is it like. [00:03:22] Speaker A: No, it's a kid movie. [00:03:24] Speaker B: It's a Christmas movie. What do you mean? What Christmas movies besides diehard, aren't, like, bad Santa? [00:03:32] Speaker C: Is it Christmas vacation good? [00:03:33] Speaker A: That's a good one. [00:03:34] Speaker B: Listen, have you seen Bad Santa? Two. [00:03:37] Speaker A: I have not. [00:03:37] Speaker B: I just watched it for the very first time. It fucks bad Santa up. Like, if you thought Bad Santa was bad, bad Santa, too, with fucking Kathy Bates worst Santa. Kathy Bates is weird because she's his mom and you get why now he's fucked up. [00:03:55] Speaker A: And iconically, Kathy Bates was what? Misery in the movie. Like, that's the only movie I remember. I know she was in tons of movies, but she can't ever grow out of that crazy misery chick. [00:04:05] Speaker B: Yeah, misery was the one. [00:04:07] Speaker A: Prince Reggie has no idea what we're talking about. [00:04:09] Speaker B: Yes. It's when you love somebody too much. [00:04:12] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:04:14] Speaker B: It's when you love something too much. [00:04:15] Speaker A: She was, like, the fan of a writer, and he ended up having an accident out near her house in the middle of nowhere. And she basically saved him, but then took him hostage as part of the saving and wouldn't let anybody come get him and kept him injured so that he couldn't. [00:04:29] Speaker B: She created this unrealistic. [00:04:31] Speaker C: Write a book, too. [00:04:32] Speaker A: Yeah, finish his book, because he didn't write it right. [00:04:35] Speaker B: And she created this unrealistic relationship between them. Like, in her head, they were cool. And this nigga is scared of shit, and he wants to go home and not in her world, he just had. [00:04:45] Speaker A: A leg injury and she broke it. [00:04:47] Speaker C: This bitch took the sledgehammer and broke. [00:04:50] Speaker B: This nigga's knees and his ankles on the blocks. That was the. Like, you're not walking. [00:04:55] Speaker A: Was that a. Anyway, France, I'm sorry that you're so young that you don't know this, but that's one reference we have to talk about, because that movie was iconic. [00:05:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:05:05] Speaker A: And I don't see her as anything but that villain, even if she's been in good movies. [00:05:08] Speaker B: They're like, no, she's hardcore biker mom, gangster thief. Like, cussing and fucking and talking shit. One of the things she said her pussy was, don't see no color. Some shit like that about. Because the midget, dude. [00:05:25] Speaker A: Nice. So that's at least three. [00:05:28] Speaker C: Was she getting slammed in the ass like Laura Graham in the first one, though? [00:05:31] Speaker B: No, but there's a lot of that going on because, again, that's his bad Santa. [00:05:35] Speaker C: That's what he likes to do. That's what I'm saying. [00:05:36] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:05:37] Speaker B: In one of the scenes, he was in the bathroom and he grabbed some soap out of the dispenser, and old girl said, are you washing your hands? He said, not yet. She said, I was like, that can't be good. You can't put peril in the booty, man. I know. It's like, in theory, it sounds like it would work, right? Because you got all these germs. [00:05:59] Speaker A: So when you wash your ass, what are you putting in your booty? [00:06:01] Speaker B: You're not putting it in the booty, though. [00:06:03] Speaker A: I mean, you could. [00:06:04] Speaker B: You're not supposed to. [00:06:05] Speaker C: There's alcohol in that shit. [00:06:07] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:06:07] Speaker B: You're not supposed to put. I don't know. [00:06:11] Speaker A: So when you get a booty, when you take medical form, when you do an enema, are you putting something in there? [00:06:15] Speaker B: Yeah, something's in the enema. [00:06:17] Speaker A: I would say that it's probably not too far off from Purell. [00:06:20] Speaker B: No, man, that was like a gel. That was a straight lube action thing. [00:06:24] Speaker A: I don't know that there's a rule. [00:06:25] Speaker C: Isn't that like salt water or something? [00:06:27] Speaker A: What? An enema? Enemas are many different things. Vinegar. I don't know. But, I mean, next time I take. Have an enema, I'll see what the. [00:06:37] Speaker C: Ingredients, what you're shooting in there. [00:06:39] Speaker B: Right. [00:06:39] Speaker A: I'll look at what the ingredients are. But that's at least three bad movies that aren't for kids. What about best man Christmas? That wasn't for kids. [00:06:47] Speaker B: Yeah, you're right. [00:06:48] Speaker A: Christmas is not for fucking kids. [00:06:50] Speaker B: Oh, it is. [00:06:51] Speaker A: It's not. [00:06:51] Speaker C: Well, it's a new day now. Back in the day, all Christmas movies were freaking mean. I remember as a kid, even I thought Christmas vacation was out there just because the fact that Chevy Chase said, motherfucker. I was like, holy shit. [00:07:04] Speaker B: He said that shit? [00:07:08] Speaker C: Yeah, I was tripping about that back then. A few weeks ago, we went to one of those mystery Monday movie things or whatnot, where you just pay like $5. You have no idea what you're going to go see, but it's supposed to be something that's coming out later or something like that. [00:07:23] Speaker A: Okay. [00:07:24] Speaker C: And it was a Christmas film. That was a slasher film, and it was called Thanksgiving. It was called it's a wonderful knife. It was so horrible. [00:07:35] Speaker A: It's a wonderful knife. [00:07:36] Speaker C: It's a wonderful knife. [00:07:37] Speaker A: Yes. And it cost you $5 a person. [00:07:39] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, it was a $5 ticket. [00:07:40] Speaker B: That's a good movie, though. It wasn't bad. [00:07:43] Speaker C: Look, and the funny part was that there was a lot of people there, right? [00:07:47] Speaker A: Of course you can't go. [00:07:48] Speaker C: You had a lot of old people walk out. [00:07:50] Speaker B: This is horrible. [00:07:51] Speaker C: I didn't pay to see this type of thing. Type of walking out sort of thing. But then those of us who stayed, we were dying, cracking up because of how horrible it was. Like when the old dude got his throat cut and the knife wasn't even touching his neck type shit and whatnot, and we were all in there cracking jokes like it was hella funny. So, I mean, it was fun. [00:08:09] Speaker B: I think that's my thing, even though I did. Was it violent? Night, I think was on. [00:08:14] Speaker C: That was good. [00:08:14] Speaker B: Yeah. And I normally don't dig Halloween or not Halloween, but like Christmas slasher movies, they just don't seem to go, Krampus, maybe. I don't know. Krampus. Was it Krampus or Krampus where that motherfucker was? [00:08:30] Speaker A: I don't waste that kind of time. I think it's. No too many movies. [00:08:33] Speaker B: No, listen, you don't know enough. [00:08:35] Speaker C: You don't know enough. [00:08:36] Speaker A: Yeah, it could be. Yeah. I'm not a big movie. I don't know any bad movies. I'm not a big movie. I only watch good shit. Like last night, I watched. [00:08:45] Speaker B: How do you know? [00:08:45] Speaker C: How does he know before he puts it on? [00:08:47] Speaker A: I just stop. Oh, you don't finish the movies when you realize it's no or. I know that it's bad, and I never trust the person who recommended that movie again. For instance, Jamie Mack I refuse to watch anything he recommends. [00:08:57] Speaker B: That's bullshit. Because the last one I recommended, you said was good. [00:09:00] Speaker A: Well, I can't remember now. [00:09:01] Speaker B: What was it? The follow of the house of Usher. You said it had too many uvs in it. [00:09:04] Speaker A: Yeah, too many of them. But again, though, that was a rework, though. [00:09:13] Speaker C: That was a remake of something else. [00:09:14] Speaker A: Well, it's Edgar Allan Poe. [00:09:17] Speaker C: It was like a movie of one of his poems or something. [00:09:19] Speaker A: Edgar Allan Poe had one of his poems. Excuse me, was this story. [00:09:26] Speaker C: Oh, that's not new. I mean, how many movies are made out of books? [00:09:29] Speaker A: Yeah, I didn't say it was new. [00:09:32] Speaker C: When you said it was a redo, I thought you meant, like it was a remake. Like, we make movies again all the time. [00:09:36] Speaker A: Well, I'm just saying it wasn't created. [00:09:39] Speaker C: It wasn't an original idea. [00:09:40] Speaker A: Yeah, it was from a book. [00:09:41] Speaker B: So, anybody going to watch that new color purple? [00:09:43] Speaker A: No, it's a musical. Right. [00:09:45] Speaker B: I am. Is it a musical? [00:09:47] Speaker C: I'm going to watch it just so I can compare. [00:09:50] Speaker A: But it's not even like the same. [00:09:51] Speaker C: No, they admitted that, and I give them credit for that. [00:09:54] Speaker B: Give it a new name, then. [00:09:56] Speaker A: Look, it's not about the same thing. I mean, it's the storyline, but in a singing version. [00:10:02] Speaker C: No, they got that. Yes, but it's not that. It's the same story, but it's a musical. It's a revision of the original story, which means that the basis of the movie, the point of the movie, the main plot of the movie is the same. How they get there may be different. [00:10:21] Speaker A: Mr. A paw who liked color purple. I didn't. I'll never watch that again. [00:10:26] Speaker B: Color purple was good. [00:10:27] Speaker A: No, it wasn't. [00:10:28] Speaker C: It's a good film. It's fucked up, but it's a good film. [00:10:31] Speaker A: That was the most boring. You should see this because you're a black movie I've ever seen in my life. [00:10:35] Speaker B: No, that was fucking Black Panther. [00:10:39] Speaker A: No, Black Panther wasn't boring. [00:10:41] Speaker B: Black Panther was the worst boring. You should go see. This is the best thing ever because it's black. [00:10:47] Speaker C: Black Panther felt like bet to me. [00:10:49] Speaker A: Yeah, it was just a lot of hype. Did anybody see number two? [00:10:53] Speaker B: Yeah, I didn't see Black Panther. [00:10:54] Speaker A: Yeah, that was for the Mexicans, number two. [00:10:57] Speaker C: But I got to give them credit, though, because at least the second one was a quick fix. They put a Band aid on the situation because, bro, for the Mexicans. What do you mean all for the Mexicans? [00:11:09] Speaker A: The water guy in the Black Panther, too. The guy they had to fight was pretty much a latino family. [00:11:16] Speaker C: He was aztec. [00:11:19] Speaker A: Aztec, okay. But the first black, like, what Jimmy Mac was saying earlier, they made Black Panther that every black people have to see. So Black Panther two come around. It's not really for all black people. [00:11:29] Speaker B: Black Panther two was for black women, too. [00:11:31] Speaker C: Black Panther two was for black women and Mexicans. Well, Mexicans, probably. Later on it's for black women. [00:11:37] Speaker A: I guess. I got to see it. [00:11:39] Speaker B: I guess. The antagonist. [00:11:43] Speaker A: And that's not for Mexicans. [00:11:44] Speaker C: No, the bad guy was the antagonist, but it was a way that they did it to make you feel like this dude was real. Like, he felt bad for him. He was the victim type thing. [00:11:53] Speaker B: You know what I mean? Like Killmonger. Exactly. Because Killmonger was the bad guy, but. [00:11:57] Speaker C: You still felt bad, you know what I mean? And he was. Honestly, and he wasn't wrong in his theories. [00:12:04] Speaker B: He wasn't. [00:12:05] Speaker C: He was not wrong. [00:12:06] Speaker B: Listen, he was my guy. Like, I was rooting for kill. Yeah, dude. Because, again, I think that he was right. Like, you've been hoarding all this shit. You ain't sharing this with the rest of the black folks. [00:12:17] Speaker C: I was hoping they brought him back. And what if, though, for real, I was hoping they brought him back. [00:12:21] Speaker B: Yeah. But you didn't buy anybody any presents. [00:12:24] Speaker A: No. Damn. [00:12:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:12:27] Speaker A: You did not even like your wife. [00:12:28] Speaker B: No. Because I just watched Christmas with the cranks. [00:12:31] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:12:31] Speaker B: And it was that. And they were like, listen, we're not buying anybody else anything. Right. He said, but don't get us anything either. Right. Like, that was the thing. [00:12:38] Speaker A: I got one thing. I didn't ask for it. [00:12:40] Speaker B: You really were Christmas with the cranks this year. You went to tropical. Like, did you guys get tan before you went or you got tan out there? [00:12:46] Speaker A: I don't know what you mean about before he went. [00:12:48] Speaker B: Like, you go get a tan so that you don't look out of place when you get there. You kind of get pre tan. [00:12:53] Speaker A: He's not a white man. Yeah, I don't think that works that way. I don't know if light skinned people get pains before they do stuff. I could be wrong. I don't think most light skinned people. I could see a white person doing pasty. [00:13:05] Speaker C: White people do that so that way they don't feel embarrassed when they take off their shirt at the beach. [00:13:09] Speaker B: Right. [00:13:10] Speaker A: I can understand that. [00:13:11] Speaker B: It's like pregaming. [00:13:12] Speaker C: That's exactly what it is. [00:13:14] Speaker B: It's pre vacation. [00:13:14] Speaker A: So did you have a conversation with your people? Hey, I'm not getting your shit. No. [00:13:19] Speaker B: Nice. [00:13:19] Speaker C: No, I feel the fuck out of that. [00:13:21] Speaker A: You just walked that energy all December. I didn't buy anything. You're thinking too much. [00:13:28] Speaker C: Wait, so it's zero presents for nobody? Like, nothing for your kids or nothing? [00:13:32] Speaker A: I couldn't understand. The kids are old. [00:13:36] Speaker C: I gave my kids money type. [00:13:39] Speaker A: I didn't buy presents for anybody. I'm surprised. [00:13:41] Speaker B: No, but you've been saying this for a while, though, that this was coming. [00:13:45] Speaker A: Well, here's the thing, right? It's part of my evolution, my Mexico evolution, bro. And now that I'm. Okay, just listen. There's a reason why we haven't been on here for a couple of weeks. Jimmy Mack got a different job, and he was doing his training. And then I went to Mexico for the week. Me and my wife took our parents with us to see if they were down with maybe getting down there. And part of my evolution, man, it's like the details are starting to not matter and stuff like presents, I'm like, that's complicated. I'm not asking you. I'm not going to tell you not to buy me anything, but I'm not getting anything and I'm not even going to explain it. You know me and you didn't get anything last year. You're going to get the same thing you got last year. [00:14:24] Speaker B: You should know me, right? If you don't know, it's just the. [00:14:29] Speaker A: Complications that we put in our own lives. [00:14:31] Speaker C: Yes, I'm with that, though. I'm with that so much. Because that's the reason why I don't buy nobody's shit. [00:14:36] Speaker B: Yes. [00:14:38] Speaker A: Because here's the thing, right? When you even enter into the realm of gifts, right? [00:14:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:14:43] Speaker A: Now you got to try to figure out what they might want. And you see how we're already starting out opening the can of worms. Yeah, I got to figure out. And then I have to deal with whatever your criticisms or complaints may be after you get it and gift receipts and all that shit. If I know you need something, I'll get you something. It don't got to be on December 25. [00:15:02] Speaker B: It can be whenever. [00:15:03] Speaker A: And then you know what I'm saying? In that way, it's more utilitarian anyway, because it's something that you need as opposed to me trying to fit a gift into the scope of this day. Like, well, I got to get everybody something. So the people that have no idea, I'm just going to get them something. And of course they don't want that. It's whatever. [00:15:20] Speaker C: And then it makes an asshole out of them, too. [00:15:21] Speaker A: I didn't get my grandkids anything, and I spent no money on gifts. [00:15:26] Speaker B: Check it out. He pointed at me like he thought he had you. He like, watch. Watch this, this, watch this, watch this. I got to watch this. [00:15:31] Speaker A: I didn't get my granddaughter anything. And I have a new granddaughter on the way. [00:15:36] Speaker B: We both do. Is it march for you? [00:15:42] Speaker A: End of May, maybe. [00:15:43] Speaker B: Okay. [00:15:43] Speaker A: Yeah. But I got no one anything. No one got anything from me. We took my mom to Mexico. So, I mean, that was kind of. [00:15:53] Speaker B: That's a gift. [00:15:54] Speaker A: That's a memory gift, too. [00:15:56] Speaker B: That's like home alone gifts where he always taking the whole family that Uncle Frank is getting treated. [00:16:02] Speaker A: And when we would have done that for my wife's parents as well, but we took them to Miami the year before for their birthday. So it was was this time we gave my mom the gift of travel and we helped out on the entire thing but know footed some of their own. But, um. Yeah, man, I've just. It's part of my evolution that the details are starting out to matter. In fact, the details are annoying to me. [00:16:24] Speaker B: Yeah. Amen. Preach, brother. So when you say I'm ready to take a shot to that, that makes me want to take a shot, I'm down with that. [00:16:31] Speaker A: Let's take a shot to details. [00:16:32] Speaker B: Not mattering. [00:16:33] Speaker C: Not mattering. [00:16:34] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:34] Speaker C: I'm about to say to fuck the details. [00:16:36] Speaker B: Right? [00:16:38] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:16:39] Speaker B: We did it poor people style. [00:16:41] Speaker A: Sure did. That's okay. [00:16:43] Speaker C: No, it's funny, though, is after I heard that show where you were talking about that, I think I do it more now, actually. [00:16:50] Speaker A: You click classes more. [00:16:51] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:51] Speaker C: And actually I'm less poor than when I started doing that, actually. [00:16:54] Speaker A: Well, have you paid attention to other people who are not poor and how they toast? [00:16:58] Speaker C: I don't like the way that people who are not poor do you think? [00:17:00] Speaker A: Okay. [00:17:01] Speaker C: It's kind of like we were talking about earlier in the car. I like the hood about certain shit. [00:17:06] Speaker A: Yeah. Right. I'm seeing right now that you and. [00:17:10] Speaker C: I, class type thing, we're not going. [00:17:11] Speaker A: To be able to fuck around very much longer. There's going to be a point where we get to a crossroads and you go like, oh, this hood shit. Yeah. I'm like, oh, no, I can't do hood shit. I'm going this way. [00:17:22] Speaker B: It's just that their tables are usually bigger. Right. So rich people's tables are not conducive to toasting. Clicking. So that's just kind of how that. [00:17:31] Speaker C: Works for me, though. It's just more like shit that they just do just for the sake of just doing it that way. It seems like shit that just don't matter. It kind of like the details you talk about. Like, screw the details. It's kind of like that. [00:17:44] Speaker A: Well, that's why I'm not upset that you all click glasses, because the details don't matter to me anymore if you all want to be poor and toast poorly. Hey. [00:17:50] Speaker B: So to me, it's like, even if you weren't toasting, like, we just have some of this woodford of Rye, but if it wasn't that and we just had beers. You know how you just have a beer and you just knock the tip? [00:18:02] Speaker A: I put it towards your direction. [00:18:06] Speaker B: No, I'm used to that. Just cheers. [00:18:10] Speaker A: Do what you do. [00:18:11] Speaker B: Oh, no, for sure. [00:18:12] Speaker A: Yeah, do what you do. [00:18:13] Speaker B: Right. [00:18:13] Speaker A: So I can only give you the information. [00:18:14] Speaker B: Right. [00:18:14] Speaker A: So you're saying the details don't matter. I can see how you're saying it with the holidays, but is it with everything else in life? Well, I don't know. Maybe I misrepresented. Details matter, but the details start to fall away and becoming less important. So by details, are you meaning the little things? The little things? Yeah, like the things that sum up to make the whole. A lot of times we pay a lot of attention to those small things, but believe it or not, if you don't pay so much attention to it, it still kind of works out. [00:18:43] Speaker B: It's funny because that's a scale type of thing. No, it's weird because I can't remember his name now. Dude we used to work with back at the one spot out in no Grove, and he was my area manager and he saw me when I first became a manager, just doing too much. And he's like, listen, bro, you're going to kill yourself. He's like, you're going to kill yourself doing this, man. Sometimes it's better to be good than great. It takes so much to be great. You're trying to do everything perfectly when good will work just as well. Like, the difference that you're going to get when you go from here to great, the effect that you're going to have on your people ain't that much as far as the work that you're having to put in the effort versus the returns, right? [00:19:37] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:19:37] Speaker B: Your effort versus effect. Right. All this effort you're putting in and the effect that it has is not relative to the amount of work you're doing. So just do good and you can still have a very similar effect, but you're not going to kill yourself. You're not going to be here 3 hours after you supposed to be off printing shit out and doing shit, putting shit on people's desk and all of this shit. Like, fuck all of that, bro. Stop all of this. And I was like, that makes sense because again, I don't want to do this. I just felt like I needed to do this because again, I was my first managing job and shit like that. So I'm trying to fucking be the fucking perfect in everything and kill them all. [00:20:18] Speaker A: Let me tell you how far I've come, okay? Let me tell you about. God. [00:20:21] Speaker B: Oh, shit. [00:20:22] Speaker A: Psych. Anyway, no, let me tell you about this. So Saturday we went to a. [00:20:29] Speaker B: Came home. [00:20:29] Speaker A: Saturday we went to a water park there in Mexico called Chelha, right? And it's like huge as hell, right? The lazy river is actually a river. It's not like some shit they built. It's a river that you start up at the top, towards the top of the mountain area, and you come down not fast, right? And it opens up into a place, a big lake that empties out into the ocean. [00:20:51] Speaker B: Damn. [00:20:51] Speaker A: So I'm in that. And the day before, I had gone to the beach and I didn't have any sunblock or anything, and I was there for a really long time, and I got like some sunburn, like, sun poison rash on my neck. So my neck is real burning. The next day when we're at this water park, or two days later, we're at this water park. So the little phone thing you put over your neck and it seals and you know what I'm saying? The little phone case, right? Talking about, you see those things? So I had one of those, but I didn't want to put on my neck because my neck was fucking on fire from the heat. So I put it in my pocket, get on the inner tube going down, I lose my phone in the middle of the fucking ocean, basically. And I wasn't stressed. I was like, who's to say what's good and what's bad? I seriously was not stressed. And I just got the iPhone four. Yeah, I just got it a month or two ago, maybe not that long. I lost it and I was like, I was good, whatever, yeah, we'll figure it out. Everybody's like, well, should we go back? Nah, it's good. It'll float back over to me if it's supposed to be otherwise, I'll just get another one. We get back, and if I can't afford it when I get back, I'll wait till I can. It's no big deal. Y'all stop worrying about. Everybody was all stressed out because more than you normally, I'm Mr. Perfect. I don't make mistakes. I don't like making mistakes. Now here it is, a catastrophic mistake, right? My entire connection to the world, I lost. But I'm cool. My spirit is light. You know what I'm saying? Wow, that's crazy. [00:22:10] Speaker B: That's good shit. [00:22:11] Speaker C: That is good shit. [00:22:12] Speaker A: That's good shit. But that's crazy that he just made a. I'm not done. [00:22:19] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't know if it's been true. [00:22:20] Speaker A: I'm not done. Because as you see. Oh, that's true. Yeah, no, hold on. No, I don't have another phone. I have my phone. So check this out, right? So we said, look, God. In the beginning, he said, psych. So he lied about the psych. [00:22:32] Speaker B: Yeah, because it's just a number of God. [00:22:33] Speaker A: So hold on. We go back up another time, and this time I'm going to do the lazy river. It's about an hour and a half thing, because it's long as fucking. It's a real river. And they have snorkeling equipment if you want it. I was like, everybody's like, yeah, I get it. Because you can look at the bottom and see if the phone is like, it's okay if it comes back, it comes back. If not, it doesn't. You know what I'm saying? We'll figure it out. Don't need to be looking for it, right? I don't want to invest that kind of energy into this. I want to enjoy this river because this shit is magical. It's like paradise. [00:23:02] Speaker B: Fuck, yeah. [00:23:02] Speaker A: And I want to do that more than I want to look for a phone. So if I'm sitting here looking at the phone, I'm missing all the beauty around me. You know what I'm saying? [00:23:08] Speaker C: And if you don't find the phone, that's just going to fuck up the whole rest of the trip. [00:23:12] Speaker A: Everybody's focused. Hey, did you get it? [00:23:13] Speaker B: What happened? [00:23:14] Speaker A: So I made sure everybody knew I was cool. Like, no, listen to me. Fuck that phone. It'll come back if it's supposed to. If not, I'll get another one. You know what I'm saying? Set it free. So we go down, and we had an even better time this time. We didn't even get on the inner tubes. This time. We got fins. We didn't get the snorkel masks. We had fins. They make you wear a life vest. So we were just in fins and a life vest. I'm just in the middle of this river, just enjoying life. [00:23:33] Speaker B: Float. [00:23:34] Speaker A: Laying back. The sun is hitting my face. You know what I'm saying? I'm floating backwards down to this lazy river. Best experience the entire time in Mexico. This time we did this, like, ten stories water slide that goes around in a circle around this lighthouse and then comes out in water. All this is happening after I lose my phone, right? Had I been thinking about that damn phone, I would have hated the rest of the day. Whatever, right? [00:23:53] Speaker C: You wouldn't have done half that shit. [00:23:55] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:23:56] Speaker B: Were you ever concerned about your dick pics hitting the Internet? [00:23:58] Speaker A: I don't have dick pics. Okay. I don't do that. [00:24:00] Speaker B: Okay. [00:24:00] Speaker A: I don't do nudes. Okay. [00:24:02] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:24:02] Speaker A: I don't do nudes. I don't do nudes. While we're at the park, I go to that Lawson found. Hey, this is a long shot here, but I lost my phone. If anybody turns it in, is this where I would look? Yeah, let me check and see if anybody turned the iPhone. Nobody did. But let me get your phone number and your email, and if they turn it in, then I'll call you guys. Like, yeah, we're leaving Mexico tomorrow. No, it's a long shot. [00:24:26] Speaker B: That's a perfect mexican accent, so it's a long shot. [00:24:29] Speaker A: I was like, okay, whatever. So we finally get back to. It's like a 45 minutes drive back to our Airbnb. And on the bus, I'm on Kit's iPhone trying to find mine so I can erase it. Because at this point now I don't know what's going on, but it's having trouble locating it or whatever, right? So finally get back to our Airbnb, I go to my iPad, and the motherfucker pops up at the park. I'm like, oh, fuck. This shit is logged in at 01:00. I lost my phone. Probably, like, noon, 11:00 a.m.. Noon. At 01:00 it checked in at the park. So I'm like, okay, well, let me put this message. Hey, I lost my phone. Here's the number. I have friends here in Playa, so if you find it, call this number, and I'll set up so they can come pick it up or whatever. And so I'm just sitting there. I'm like, okay, that's a long shot. But then it moves, and now it's in Cancun at the Westin. And so I'm like, wait a minute. So a Mexican to get my shit. It's a white call. So we call the phone, this guy named David answer, scared as fuck. Because kid is like, hey, this is my husband's phone. And blah, blah, blah, blah. So his dude, she's like, well, would you just take it down to the security desk downstairs? He's like, oh, yeah, I'll do that. Because we were trying to figure out how we're going to get it back at this point. He took it down to the fucking desk and we took a cab to Cancun. It was a 45 minutes ride each way. It took. Cost like $125. But that's not the point, right? The point is that I got my phone back without stressing about it. I did have to do some work. [00:25:54] Speaker B: Yeah, but it wasn't the stress, really. [00:25:58] Speaker C: What you just did was just take a look. [00:26:01] Speaker A: He did. Any sane person would do, just in case. No, see, most people would have stressed the fuck out. They would have sane. They would have got back in the snorkel and they would have looked at the bottom of the ocean. Hey, you guys get snorkels too? Let's all look and let's do, man, ruining everybody's history. Everybody's day is ruined. [00:26:15] Speaker B: It's about his phone, right? [00:26:17] Speaker A: The whole second half of the day. Yeah, but we didn't think about the phone. I was like, I can call my insurance and see if I can figure out how to do this, where they may give me like $700 or something and I have to fork over the 500 that I'm short or whatever. Turns out, though, I got my shit back. David, whoever you are, I know you was trying to steal it at first, but I'm glad you didn't and appreciate you taking it down to the kit. [00:26:39] Speaker B: Telled him he part of the. [00:26:40] Speaker A: Huh? No, seriously. She was just like, it was very awkward at first because he wasn't sure if he wanted to give her the information. But I'm sitting there saying, no, he's in Cancun at the Weston. I'm looking at my find my iPhone right on my iPad. So every time he's like, no, no, he's in Cancun. Not in playa, not in Tulum, not near the park. You're up in Cancun. You know what I'm saying? So I wish I called the shit while we're at the park because maybe he would have gave me it back then I wouldn't have drive so far, but nonetheless, it saved me all that money. Because the iPhone 15 is $1,100 phone, right? And I paid 125 to go to the cab to get up there and back real quick. [00:27:16] Speaker B: That's dope. [00:27:16] Speaker A: So the reason why you wasn't tripping about the phone, is it because you just detach yourself from materialistic things or you just was like, you know what? I'm in Mexico. Fuck it, I can get another phone. No, it's part of the evolution of it all. And I think it's closer to the first thing. I don't know if the first thing you said was accurate, but it's closer to that. It's more along the lines of, am I really fucked up about a phone? And is it really something that requires me to mess up the rest of my vacation or day or whatever? Or could I just not really care so much about this shit and let it work itself out, which it ended up doing? So did the thought process happen automatically or did you make a conscious moment at that time? You know what? I'm not going to give a fuck. [00:27:54] Speaker C: You said solutions. That means it was a process to get here. It sounds like when you got to this point where this phone came out your pocket, it was kind of just like, fuck it. [00:28:01] Speaker A: It'd be like, this is your phone. [00:28:03] Speaker C: It took a while to get here because I'm imagining that's not how you may have been before. [00:28:06] Speaker B: It's almost like you're a weed smoker now. [00:28:08] Speaker A: No, I mean, kind of. No, weed smokers get. [00:28:14] Speaker B: Fuck it. [00:28:15] Speaker C: No, I can't agree with that statement. [00:28:17] Speaker A: Yeah, their fucking is different. [00:28:19] Speaker C: I'm trying to get to where you are right now, where I'm not so held down by things like that because I'm thinking about myself. If I had lost my phone like that, that would have fucked my shit up. Like all the way up. [00:28:32] Speaker A: Even though, you know, when you get back home, you can get. But even that's a like, like, he. [00:28:38] Speaker B: Like, that shit is pricey, bro. [00:28:41] Speaker A: All the things that you're like, your passwords aren't going to be all right. Putting all your apple face stuff. There's still a big process that you have to do. And if you don't have the old phone, that means you got to remember all the shit that you haven't thought of in years. So I didn't have the old phone. I had a backup, but I didn't have the old phone to compare. So not just the money, but also the process of it. What I'm saying, though, is that when it happened, when I realized that it was gone immediately, I was already past it. There was never a point where what Pac was saying where I had to decide whether I was going to be fucked up about it or be okay about it. I immediately was just okay about it. It never touched my spirit to be fucked up about it, not even once. So that means you already kind of like half evolved. [00:29:22] Speaker C: Well, he said, this is how far I've come. [00:29:24] Speaker A: That's what evolution is. [00:29:25] Speaker C: He said, this is showing how far I've come. [00:29:28] Speaker A: Because you still probably got some. I don't think you ever finish involved, right. [00:29:34] Speaker C: It's kind of like life. You learn every day living anymore. [00:29:39] Speaker A: Of course, my wife is looking at me like, who are the fuck are you, nigga? Because I'm usually very meticulous about everything. There is no way I can lose my phone, right? You know what I'm saying? And this time, it's crazy that it happened. My phone is oversized. My pocket was smaller, so there was no way it could come out. But it did. So because it did. It gave me a chance to apply this evolution that I didn't even know where I was in it, but I knew I felt differently. Whenever I get down there, my shoulders loosen up. [00:30:08] Speaker B: He works in strange, mysterious ways. [00:30:10] Speaker A: Had to do a lot with it. So if you had lost your phone here in the States, you think you would. I don't think so. The same. I don't think if I had lost it before I went again, maybe, but after coming back, I don't think so. I think that basically this episode concretized my resolve in whatever it is that is happening to me. Where details are important, of course, but I'm not going to sweat them like they matter. But like you said, how much effort am I going to put into making sure the details are right and take away from the other shit that I got going on? There's a point of diminishing returns, and the point is a lot higher than it used to be. So when you are in that mindset, how are you going to navigate maintaining certain relationships? Because some other people might need more details or might need more. What's that got to do with me? Somebody you care about. What do you mean? [00:31:02] Speaker B: Say that again. Give an example. What do you mean by some people might need more details? [00:31:09] Speaker A: Some people might need, I guess, more reassurance. What does that got to do with me, bro, I love it. [00:31:14] Speaker C: Because he's basically saying that's not his problem. [00:31:16] Speaker A: Yeah, see, you're complicating it right now. But I'm saying this is somebody you care about. [00:31:23] Speaker C: But he's not wrong. [00:31:25] Speaker A: I'm not saying he's wrong if you want to be in good terms with. [00:31:28] Speaker C: Your people, but I'm still something that you would put on yourself. That's not something that is really your responsibility. [00:31:37] Speaker A: Figure it out. I'm a leader. [00:31:40] Speaker C: I'm me. I'm myself. It's your responsibility whether you like me or not. It's not my responsibility to make you like me. [00:31:46] Speaker B: Oh, but you see, that's where you fuck up, frenchry, because you like to. [00:31:51] Speaker A: I don't know if there's a fuck up. That's just his way. [00:31:53] Speaker C: A lot of people do. [00:31:55] Speaker A: I like to at least hear other people's. [00:31:57] Speaker B: No, you like to conform to what people like or what they need, right? You kind of adapt yourself to what other people need, and that's cool. [00:32:03] Speaker A: But look how complicated that is. [00:32:05] Speaker B: Super complicated. [00:32:08] Speaker C: I would probably say majority of Americans live this way. It's ones that I feel like probably are the more evolved or the ones that are the more probably successful in society that can think. The way that he's explaining this right now, because honestly, what he's talking about is the level of thought I'm trying to get to. Because honestly, I hate the attachments I have to things. [00:32:30] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:32:30] Speaker C: And I feel like life is so much simpler. It's kind of like way of the gun. When Ryan Felipe was talking about how in this life you got to live in a way where you got to be able to drop something and just be able to walk away from it and have it not bother you otherwise. [00:32:47] Speaker B: De Niro said that in heat, too. [00:32:49] Speaker A: And I don't even know if I'm going for that as much as I'm going for. I'm going to just be quiet sometimes and allow the universe to figure it out to do what it's doing right. And I don't need to bother myself or busy myself with that because it's already taken care of. [00:33:04] Speaker B: Man, that sound like God to me. Boy, that sound like God to me. [00:33:08] Speaker C: It sounds like the same thought process, but that sounds like the thought process of someone who doesn't put their reliance in a mystical being. [00:33:15] Speaker A: Basically, if all that requires is money to fix, then it's not really a problem, I don't think. [00:33:20] Speaker B: Yes, that's a great way to think about it. [00:33:23] Speaker A: That's not even really a problem. There are so many more complicated things. [00:33:26] Speaker C: Than a financial great way of putting. [00:33:29] Speaker B: So, like, we were asking about reassurances. You said something about reassurances. French. And to me, I think that it's weird because when you get around some people sometimes. Or they need some reassurance or something of that nature. But again, it's like, well, that's a you problem. I think that's what he keeps saying. [00:33:48] Speaker A: And I think that that also has to do a lot with how confident that person is. If I'm not confident in my resolve, then it might make people need reassurances, but I don't carry myself that way. So you've always said, you've always said I'd be talking shit about stuff that I don't know about. I just know something about I'm confident. So honestly, French, I don't care. And it's not that I don't know that I dislike those people, but I don't care if they don't get it. It's up to them to get it, because that's part of their process. No, I'm with you. I agree with you 100%. Because I know sometimes in certain aspects of dealing with people, I know sometimes I'm like, oh, I don't give a fuck. Because that's like, some, like, you got to figure that shit out. But I realize at times when you have that confidence or you carry yourself a certain way, people look to you to help them, and then if you try to neglect them, they might take it a certain way. But in reality, it's like, but if I start swearing the details, am I helping them really? Because now I'm going against, now I'm going against what I've learned. And it might not work for everybody. Some people may need the details, and that's okay. Me not caring about the details doesn't mean you can't. And we can't still interact. [00:34:53] Speaker B: Right. [00:34:54] Speaker A: It's just that when you start stressing me about details, I'm like, I'm not going to join you out. [00:35:00] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm not going to join you. [00:35:00] Speaker A: Because what happens is with those people that care about the details, they'd be like, because I care about the details. That's why I care. And you don't care about the details? You don't care. They're trying to make it seem like the, but I don't. But that doesn't mean you don't care about the overall. No, I don't. They're right. They're right. I don't control any of this shit. [00:35:18] Speaker B: This is where I think the disconnect comes. It's like, okay, I don't give a fuck about those details, but that doesn't necessarily mean that I don't care about you. [00:35:26] Speaker A: What happens is they put the details with them. Sounds like a them problem. Right? [00:35:30] Speaker B: That's where it comes back to. Yeah. [00:35:33] Speaker C: Basically, you're not going to overcompensate yourself in order to compensate them. [00:35:39] Speaker A: I'm on a journey tonight. Yeah. And I'm not perfect. It's not there yet. I just recognized that because it was. [00:35:44] Speaker B: So sensational working with you. [00:35:46] Speaker A: It was so sensational in the moment that all those things happen and then I end up getting my phone back anyway. So it's like, yeah, strange. I could have been beating that river up trying to find it and the guy could have came right behind me and found it and I'd have been doing that for nothing. [00:36:03] Speaker B: Strange and mysterious way. [00:36:04] Speaker A: Yeah. One of his friends had been snorkeling and found the phone. That's how they found it. They were snorkeling. [00:36:08] Speaker C: Or what if you went and did all that and it was never found? [00:36:11] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:36:11] Speaker B: Right. That means again. So the effort of I got to. [00:36:14] Speaker A: Keep my vacation and I got my phone back. By not caring. [00:36:17] Speaker C: By not caring. Because in that moment that you decided not to care, it wasn't like you saw in the future, like, oh, I'm going to get it back anyway sort of thing. So why am I tripping? Type of thing. You literally dismissed it. [00:36:29] Speaker A: Honestly, I felt like it was going to come back, but I didn't want to say it. I honestly felt like it was going to float back up to me. We were going to be in the middle of nowhere and it was going to float up. I don't know why. I just felt that. [00:36:39] Speaker C: Okay, I'm with you now. You only do it. I'm with you. He talking about the Lord now. [00:36:45] Speaker A: I'm not talking about the Lord. [00:36:47] Speaker B: Okay, we can call it whatever. [00:36:49] Speaker A: We don't not. [00:36:50] Speaker B: Listen, the name is the. [00:36:53] Speaker A: Details. [00:36:55] Speaker B: We're not going to call it. [00:36:56] Speaker A: Let's be very clear. Here in Mexico, they're very catholic, so they're very religious. [00:37:01] Speaker B: Right. [00:37:01] Speaker A: But there's also this other intermediary place. Intermediary place where everyone is just connected more to nature and everyone's connected more to the earth and everyone's connected more to the clouds and everyone's connected more to each other and everyone's connected more to the spirit of humanity. [00:37:17] Speaker B: Of humanity. Right. The real shit. [00:37:18] Speaker A: And that's not Catholic. Because there are some staunch religious people. I want to make sure that you understand that this is not God. Unless you want it to be. If that's what you want to call. [00:37:27] Speaker B: It, fine, so it's not a religion, right? Because again, I think. [00:37:30] Speaker A: But the God thing is silly. It's none of that. It's really just being a part of this thing that I know I'm already a part of and not fighting that. [00:37:38] Speaker C: It's a perspective. [00:37:39] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:37:41] Speaker A: If you need to call that guy, hey, do what you do. [00:37:44] Speaker B: That's a detail that we don't need to sweat. [00:37:47] Speaker A: Now, that's a very complicated detail, too. So when you open that one up now, you got rules, and you got to. Oh, I got to walk this way. I got to talk this. [00:37:55] Speaker B: I got to say this. I got to do that, right? [00:37:56] Speaker A: You don't got to do any of that to be part of this because you're already part of it. You just got to shut up and open up yourself. [00:38:01] Speaker B: Yeah, I get you. I feel you. [00:38:03] Speaker A: Yeah. So that's it. And I'm not there yet. It's still a journey. But that was a surprising one, because normally in those circumstances, I'd have been so upset with myself, and it would. [00:38:11] Speaker B: Have ruined because you had just got that far. That was over a stack that just floated down somewhere. Made some Mexican happy. [00:38:21] Speaker A: Yeah. And it wasn't even a Mexican. Look at that. [00:38:23] Speaker B: And then you have to see, you could not only just the aspect of losing the item itself. It's got so much information on it, right? Again, you're like, gosh damn, what if someone, before I can wipe it, has the ability to access my information, right? And now this is a foreign country where fucking maybe they do identity theft at a higher rate than other places. And all of this shit. And you stress about all this other shit that could be happening, right? Going on with your phone, and you just walked away from that. Well, man, listen, won't he do it? Or she. I mean it. Whatever you want to call it, we don't need to get into the details of. Just say that. Yeah. Won't they do it? They, them. [00:39:10] Speaker A: Call it what you like. I will continue on my journey, and let's see where it gets me. [00:39:14] Speaker B: That's good shit, though. That's good shit. I think a lot of people, if they had a choice, would like to be able to be that way. Right? Because I think there's a lot of us that stress about shit that we don't, especially after fact, after we've done stressing about it, and we realize that that had no effect to the resolution except for making us miserable during the whole process to be like, gosh damn, I wish I didn't do all of that to get to here, because I could have done none of that and still got here. [00:39:47] Speaker A: Yeah. And if I didn't, the idea that, I guess, was powering the fact that I may not find a phone again was just that. What's the big deal? At the end of the day, I may not want it to buy another phone right now, but I would have bought a phone in two years. Why try to decide how long it should be before I have to buy a phone in that way when the money is going to be spent regardless? You know what I'm saying? [00:40:13] Speaker B: You make me think back, because now I just remembered, it's been two decades exactly since I got back on the cell phone game. My first real where I was paying for a cell phone was 2003, and I didn't want to get it. I was anti cell phone at the time. I was like, I don't want one. I don't need one. I got a fucking answer machine, and I got a home phone. You can hit me there and you can leave a message, and I can screen your calls, and I can do all that if you need to get a hold of me. That's how you hit me. Like, I don't need this because I saw it for what it is. It's a noose. I was going to say handcuffed, but it's a noose where you can fucking feel like you can always get at me. There's no reason why I can't be available at 24 7365 because it's on you. I remember the days, and I know that there's probably a lot of people that listen that maybe don't even fucking recall this, where you didn't have to be available all the time. Even if you had a pager, you wasn't available all the damn time, right? Pagers don't get replied. Like, I wasn't near a phone. There was no phone near me. Sure, I got your page, but I couldn't get back to you. And if you left me a message, there was a time where I could actually sit there and hear you talk and pick and choose whether or not I wanted to pick it up. I'm going to listen in that halfway through your message, be like, okay, yeah, you are someone I want to talk to right now, and I'll pick it up. What's good. But if not, keep leaving it, and I'll get back to you whenever. Yeah, I'm not available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. That's just not how the world used to be. And once the cell phones became a deal, because I remember working for at t wireless before we got to GSM and we were just digital. [00:41:53] Speaker A: Was it singular then? [00:41:54] Speaker B: No, it was the. At t wireless. [00:41:57] Speaker C: They were two different companies before. [00:41:59] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:41:59] Speaker B: And then we were going digital. I was part of that pilot group, and they were talking about the future of the phone, right. And that it was going to replace the house phone. And at the time, I was like, are you fucking serious? So everybody in the house is going to have. Because again, I grew up where everybody got calls on the same line. [00:42:20] Speaker A: Right. [00:42:20] Speaker B: You know what I mean? And sometimes you had to get off because someone else was expecting a phone call or whatever the fuck. So you mean that this is going to replace one cell phone? Because again, in my mind, I couldn't conceptualize it. You just can have one cell phone in the house for everybody to use. I didn't know that everybody would. Fucking little kids would have cell phones. Like, everybody would have a cell phone. That didn't make sense. That was economical, feasible at that point. You were still paying fucking nights and weekends, man. It's like, that's when you really wanted to use the phone. Like, you didn't fucking use the phone during the day. It was after seven and on the weekends. And then to go from that to where we are now, and they talked about it then. They were like, you can pay for shit on your phone. You can go to a soda machine or a vending machine or something and just tap it with your phone. Because I guess they were already doing it in Europe and shit, right? [00:43:10] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:43:10] Speaker B: And I was like, in my mind, I'm thinking, that's going to be a fat ass phone bill. Like, if I'm buying shit with my phone, I'm just assuming it's going on my phone bill. I didn't know that you would have a credit card attached or some other billing services attached to it that allowed you to just use this as a conduit. And again, I'm sitting in this room going, this ain't real. And they were talking about the digital divide, right? Like, if you don't get on board now and you want to be like, oh, no, I'm not part of that. You can get left behind. It's coming, and you're going to get left behind. And I was like, I'm good. I don't need a cell phone. Answer machine works great for me. But, yeah, 2003, I was dating somebody and they bought me a cell phone. [00:43:50] Speaker A: So basically you're saying you're ready for the neuroplant or whatever it's called. [00:43:53] Speaker B: Pretty much. [00:43:53] Speaker A: What is it? Called neuroplant. I can't remember what it's called anymore. [00:43:55] Speaker B: Neuralink, for that. Neuralink. Yeah. [00:43:58] Speaker A: You learned from the last time. [00:44:00] Speaker B: Yeah. Because again, you got to get ahead of the curve. [00:44:02] Speaker A: Yeah. Have you all seen that movie? The creator? [00:44:06] Speaker C: Not yet, no. On prime. [00:44:11] Speaker B: With the black dude. [00:44:12] Speaker A: You got to rent it. [00:44:13] Speaker C: Okay. [00:44:14] Speaker A: It's free on stars. [00:44:16] Speaker B: Okay. With the black dude. [00:44:17] Speaker A: The black dude, sure. Denzel's son. [00:44:21] Speaker B: Is that him? [00:44:22] Speaker A: David Washington. [00:44:23] Speaker B: From Tenet? [00:44:24] Speaker A: Yeah, from tenant. That's Denzel Washington's son. [00:44:26] Speaker B: I didn't know that. [00:44:27] Speaker A: Yeah, it's okay. It's pretty good. [00:44:29] Speaker B: Still don't understand Tenet. [00:44:30] Speaker A: No, you shouldn't. I'm not even going to watch it again. I don't care. [00:44:34] Speaker C: I still haven't seen it. [00:44:35] Speaker A: It's not worth it. [00:44:36] Speaker B: It's too much, bro. I've tried to understand it. I really have. I've tried to watch Empire, like, four or five times, and each time I go, I don't get it. I don't understand what's fucking. What I'm supposed to. What's happening. [00:44:46] Speaker A: Forward and backwards. [00:44:47] Speaker B: Yeah, forward and backwards. [00:44:49] Speaker A: That's way too much work. [00:44:50] Speaker C: Is it like an ending you don't understand. That makes you all of it? [00:44:53] Speaker A: You don't understand. [00:44:54] Speaker C: It's a lot of it, but sometimes it's like an inception on drugs. No country for old men. To me, that ending was brilliant. Is it like that? Or is it like. [00:45:04] Speaker A: No, there were different levels that you could watch that movie on, right? And if you were on a higher level, you saw a different movie than the person who was on the lower level. But both people got the same type of experience, whether they was high brow or low brow. And Tenet, nobody knew what the fuck was going on from the beginning to the end. And when you ask people, they try to explain it like, nah, you didn't get it either, right? I know you didn't get it either. I didn't get it. And now, by what you're saying, I know you didn't fucking get it either. [00:45:30] Speaker B: I had me looking up the definition and shit. I'm like, what the fuck does tenant mean? Maybe that'll help me out. Maybe I can understand the movie through the definition of the word or the title. And I was like, no, still don't get it. [00:45:40] Speaker C: So it's one of those movies that, you know, less coming out than you knew going in. [00:45:44] Speaker A: No, I knew exactly the same. I knew exactly the same when I started and stopped. [00:45:49] Speaker B: And I think the fucking no country for old men. Indy was fucking perfect. Like, you didn't need to know that. Yes, she got murked because he told her he was going to do that. That's what happened. And he just happened. Get caught up in little karma. But he got away too, though. I don't think he got caught either. Everything was everything, right? [00:46:07] Speaker C: But the brilliant part about it, though, is how you said, I think, in front of all those things that you stated, that's the part that is brilliant about it, is because you really don't know. Yeah, she's dead, but there's a chance that maybe not. [00:46:23] Speaker B: He just got nice on her. [00:46:25] Speaker C: You never know. [00:46:27] Speaker B: He wasn't that. [00:46:27] Speaker C: Hey, look, I think it happened too, but I'm just saying they didn't show it. And anybody that knows anything about movies, if they don't show the body, it may not be dead. [00:46:36] Speaker B: Woody Harrell said we could just let me go. I'm a day trader. I'm a day trader, my nigga. I don't even save my life, dude. I fuck with stocks and shit. I'm just out here fucking around like, this ain't me. Let me go. No, but yeah, man, you talk about me being on a fucking training and shit, right? And I think I learned some shit while I was out there besides the shit of my job that I was working. That was. That was part of it. I did learn a lot about driving a truck and whatnot, but being out in America, it wasn't even all of America, right? But I saw quite a bit. I was all over this motherfucker and every day in a new part, right? And before I even got to leave, I realized some things. I remember it was probably about five, maybe five years ago, I remember saying that I was downtown Atlanta and looking at some hood shit. I think they were playing dominoes in the front yard or cards or something. So ogs and shit. And I was just reminiscing back to my childhood and being like, that shit attracts me. Like, that shit is cool. I like fucking being around motherfuckers that are just doing them right, and they're not necessarily stressed about the world. We're just out here playing dominoes, chilling and drinking and barbecuing and doing whatever the fuck we do, right. I got around some new hood shit, like younger generation hood shit when I was out in Tennessee, where the training was and how well, because they put us up in the hood first off. So I had to order an Uber. And my Uber, when she was driving, she's like, well, where are you going? [00:48:17] Speaker C: Over. [00:48:17] Speaker B: I think it's like Trinity Ave. Or some shit, right? And she's like, where are you going? And I told her, and she's like, yeah, I almost canceled it, she said, but since it was a drop off, I went ahead and kept the ride. But if I was picking up if it was a pickup over here, I'm not picking this up from over here. And I was like, oh, wow, okay. [00:48:34] Speaker A: And this is where your hotel is? [00:48:35] Speaker B: The hotel. The hotel was. [00:48:38] Speaker A: So you're, like, scared the whole way. [00:48:39] Speaker B: Like, as soon as I get there, I'm, like, clutching my fucking person shit, right? I'm like, God damn, what the fuck is going on? And when we get there, everybody that's in training looks like they'd just been paroled. And I was like, yo, am I in the right shit? Like, is this the right company? Is this the right everything? Because again, I don't match none of this shit. I feel so out of place right now. Everybody that's here for the same shit that I'm here ain't me. This is not my get down. [00:49:10] Speaker A: Right? They're not going to get your movie references. [00:49:15] Speaker B: They're not going to get nothing, right? I'm afraid to leave my room low key. Like real talk. Motherfuckers was talking about that their shit was getting stolen out of the room by room service. Like the housekeeping and shit. People were in school coming back, like, yo, we've been in training all day. We come back, some of my shit's gone. And I'm like, yo, really? And it only lucked out for me because they made you bunk with someone else. [00:49:37] Speaker A: Right? [00:49:38] Speaker B: So it was double occupancy type shit, right? So I got to share a room with somebody I don't even fucking know. Yeah, it just so happened to be some cool dude from Baltimore, some Indian with the asian Indians with the beard and the turbans and shit. I don't think he had a turban. But he wore something on his head at night. [00:49:55] Speaker A: At night? Like a durag? [00:49:56] Speaker B: Yeah, kind of what it is. Like a bonnet. Like an indian bonnet. [00:50:00] Speaker A: Bonnet, bro. [00:50:02] Speaker B: And it was funny because when I went the first day, he was on a different schedule, so he didn't go. So he was in the room the whole day, which kind of was cool. So whenever housekeeping came, someone was in there. [00:50:14] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:14] Speaker B: And then the next day when he had to go, I was done. So I was in the room. Well, I came back real early before housekeeping got there, and so it wasn't really like no one was ever not in the room. When housekeeping came, right? But that day that we both left and I didn't know I was coming back early, I took everything out with me. I took my backpack with my computer and everything because I'm downstairs and I'm hearing people complaining about their shit getting stolen, right? I'm like, not me, man. Because again, I'll fuck somebody up. I know that. I try to be involved and be like, no, more like you. Like, no, it's just gone. And we'll just see if. No, motherfucker, you stole some shit from me, I'll be like, motherfucker on office space. I'll burn this bitch down. I'll burn you down. I could. I could just burn this bitch down. And how about that? If nobody wants to give me back my shit, if it's fuck me, then, you know, it's fuck you. We can just go to war right here in Tennessee. But anyways, it's not even that part. It was the people that, again, that I was, these young hood motherfuckers that I was around, they were from all over, but I realized that. [00:51:17] Speaker A: I don't. [00:51:17] Speaker B: Even know how to say it. There's a funkiness about young hood people today. Like, they're just so extra and clowny and goofy and. You know what I mean? We go down and you got before, like six in the morning before the shuttle comes to pick everybody up. They're serving breakfast. And you can get waffles and all this other shit down in the lobby of the hotel, right? Motherfuckers out there playing music out their phone, loud as fuck, like, no earbuds, some hood ass rap shit, right? This other motherfucker got. So one dude's in the corner doing this out of his phone. Another dude got one of them JBL clip bluetooth on his hip, playing his own different motherfucking music. And it's 06:00 in the morning. And it's 06:00 in the morning. And we're all sitting here trying to get. Not this early, my dude. Come on, man. First off, you don't see other motherfuckers in here. What the fuck don't you understand that you're not the only person that exists, right? And you're in here acting like this is your own personal space where it is not. [00:52:27] Speaker C: What did you call that main character, bro? [00:52:33] Speaker B: It's wild. And I'm like, I'm a little bit embarrassed, right? And then. [00:52:39] Speaker A: Are there white people there too? [00:52:40] Speaker B: Yes. [00:52:41] Speaker A: And the Indians and all kind of stuff. [00:52:42] Speaker B: Yeah, there's all kind of national. [00:52:43] Speaker A: They're playing, like, cursing music. [00:52:44] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [00:52:48] Speaker C: Your bitches on my dick and all this shit and whatnot. Hell allow. [00:52:52] Speaker A: I have this rule for myself. Like, I can't listen to rap till it's past noon. What? It has to be past noon for me to listen to rap music? You got to let your brain cell solidify with me. If it's before noon, I have to listen to some other shit. So what's the cut off time? No, anything afternoon, plus the cut off time at night when you can't listen to rap after that. [00:53:17] Speaker C: Because if there's an end, there has. [00:53:18] Speaker A: To be a beginning. Until I go to bed, I just can't wake up, right? [00:53:21] Speaker B: That can't be the first thing that you start your day off with. I can't do that. [00:53:25] Speaker A: That gets me going. [00:53:26] Speaker B: And sometimes, listen, what I found out is throughout this whole process, I like house. I got into fucking house music because I was listening to my playlist while I was driving, and it was almost putting me to sleep at times, right? And I'm like, I need to stay up. So what do I do? I put on some fucking house. And it's just a different energy, right? And it's in the beats and all of that shit. It's almost like when we went to that glow party, you saw how I was. That shit gets me going. I don't know. And I was like, I kind of dig this. I don't know where you got the do and then drop it. Boom, boom, boom. All of that shit. Let's go. That fucking makes me think of fucking beach parties or some shit. Like, different vibe. And even the words are different, right? After enough of the same shit, I was just like, I'm done with the rap right now. I can't even. People in Slack shout out to remorseless, what's my guy in Seattle? [00:54:29] Speaker A: Nathan Nice. [00:54:30] Speaker B: Nathan Nice was talking about his prison music. And I'm like, it kind of is because I can imagine that all his. [00:54:35] Speaker A: Prison music, most rap. Oh, yeah, yeah. [00:54:38] Speaker B: And I'm like. And most of these guys either, like I said, looked like they just got on a parole or maybe we're about to go there. And the whole neighborhood, right, that they put us in was bad because they have a 711. And I haven't seen 711 since I've been in the west coast, right? [00:54:53] Speaker C: 711, yeah. [00:54:55] Speaker B: And so I'm walking to the 711. I'm like, oh, shit. 711. Let me go down here and grab me something. Out of 711. I turned down the street that the 711 is on. And it just jumped out of me. I was like, oh, shit, they trapping over here. Motherfuckers looked at me like I was making the block hot. They looked at me like, what the fuck? I'm like, no, this shit is already hot. If I could see that. As soon as I turned the corner, anybody with a fucking that knows anything sees. I don't know if there's hookers, fucking drug addicts, just pimps fucking. It was all of that burning, fucking garbage was. [00:55:29] Speaker A: I'm sorry. Can I give y'all one little tidbit? [00:55:31] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:31] Speaker A: Mexico. Prostitution is legal. Pimping is illegal. Go ahead. We'll go back to that some other time. Go ahead. Oddest shit in the world. Go ahead. I'm sorry. Did you go to 711 or you change? [00:55:43] Speaker B: No, I went to 711. [00:55:45] Speaker C: How do you drop some shit like that? We're going to come back to that later. [00:55:48] Speaker A: We'll come back to that another time. I don't want to forget it, so move on. Yeah. [00:55:53] Speaker C: Remind you about that one? [00:55:54] Speaker B: They are independent workers. [00:55:56] Speaker A: You can't force a bitch to work. But if she want to sell that. [00:55:58] Speaker B: Pussy, does she want to be in your stable? No stable. [00:56:04] Speaker A: She has to work. [00:56:05] Speaker C: She's independent. [00:56:06] Speaker A: It's her decision. Right? She can't have a pimp. Pimping is illegal. [00:56:11] Speaker B: What if she has a boyfriend? [00:56:13] Speaker A: Pimping is illegal. [00:56:14] Speaker B: Okay? [00:56:15] Speaker A: Boyfriend. You just can't get her a pimp. [00:56:17] Speaker B: She can't give me some money. [00:56:18] Speaker A: Pimping is illegal. Daily pimping is illegal. [00:56:20] Speaker B: Because she loved me. [00:56:22] Speaker A: Pimping is illegal. Now you want to interpret? [00:56:24] Speaker C: Just beat on her because you abusive. [00:56:28] Speaker A: Interpret that how you please. Pimping is illegal. That's crazy. [00:56:32] Speaker B: I feel like in Mexico, you can put hands on them a little bit more mean, from what I heard, as. [00:56:38] Speaker A: Long as you got enough pesos in your pocket, you can do anything. [00:56:41] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, that sounds like when they. [00:56:43] Speaker A: Hem you up, like, hey, man, come on, can we make this go away? [00:56:46] Speaker B: See, that's what got Kobe in trouble with Shaq. Kobe tried to get out of that shit with Shaq. [00:56:51] Speaker A: That wasn't in Mexico. [00:56:52] Speaker B: I know, but that's what I'm saying. He probably was thinking Mexican. Mexico. He was thinking mexican. He's married to a Mexican. He's like, look, this is how they do it, right? I got enough money, right? We can make this go away. [00:57:02] Speaker A: Weed is illegal, though. [00:57:04] Speaker B: Weed is illegal. [00:57:05] Speaker A: Weed is illegal. Very od. [00:57:07] Speaker B: But you can get all fucking oxy right at the fucking corner store. Anything like all of that. But weed is illegal. I don't know why people have a gill. [00:57:16] Speaker A: That's an american thing. Trust me, that's an american thing. America has fucked everybody up that surrounds America on that. And it's silly, but anyway, I'm sorry. Please, no. [00:57:25] Speaker B: Okay, so, yeah, and I just realized these young hood niggas, right, in the young hood environment is different than the hood that I think I'm familiar with. I haven't been in the hood like that in a long time. So I'm thinking probably through rose colored glasses about shit that I grew up around. And when I experience these niggas, like this one nigga, there's a shuttle coming. And the shuttle comes up until a certain time after that, then they only sit in this little sprinter van. Yeah, sprinter van. Only going to put like nine of you in there. And it takes trips now it's like 15 minutes both ways. So it's like you're going to have to wait 30 if you don't catch this one, right? Motherfuckers is trying to get to this van, right? And this motherfucker, he screamed on this dude, like, you got to give me some space. And I'm like, nigga, if you don't get the fuck on the damn fucking sprinter bus and quit tripping, what you going to do? You're going to fight a nigga here during training? Is that what you about to do? That's what you're going to do? Like, God damn. And then to the point where the nigga that he yelled at didn't even want to. There was a seat next to him. He didn't want to sit there. There's three of us in the next row. This niggas, like half butt cheeked on between him, the butt cheek on one seat. And then he's leaning up against the door because I guess this dude just shook him to the point that he don't even want to sit next to that nigga like that. [00:58:48] Speaker A: I'm like a hood person also. [00:58:50] Speaker B: No, that's what I'm saying. He wasn't, because crazy, he'd had to scoot the fuck over. If it was me sitting on the edge of the shit like that, I don't give a fuck. I'm not trying to go home, but I'm not going to be sitting like this in the fucking door. Well, because you got a whole fucking ass seat next to you. [00:59:10] Speaker A: Did he get back to the place? [00:59:11] Speaker B: Yeah, he worked out. He didn't say nothing. But again, I just felt like, what are you doing my guy again. This is that young hood shit. Like, it is a youngster. And I'm like, this motherfucker. Everybody's trying to get on this motherfucker because we don't want to fucking wait, right? So just, if someone is close to you behind, so what, they could just get on like, what the fuck are you. Who are you yelling at? This dude, right? Like, you're going to fight him. [00:59:41] Speaker A: And was this happening in the hood, though, or was this further away from. [00:59:44] Speaker B: No, this is right in the fucking parking lot of this hood ass fuck. [00:59:47] Speaker A: Niggas looking at you all like, oh. [00:59:48] Speaker B: Yeah, whoever get left behind. [00:59:51] Speaker A: I'm a holly. [00:59:55] Speaker B: It was wild, man. I knew that when she said what she said when she was dropping me off was one thing. And then when I got in the room and I was like, oh, okay, put it this way. I didn't get underneath the sheets at all the whole time I was there, right? They had this little thin, flannel, gray, prison like blanket. So I heard that they use in prison. [01:00:20] Speaker A: You would imagine that that's what they. [01:00:21] Speaker B: Exactly. That itchy type motherfucking blanket that they would fucking lay. [01:00:26] Speaker A: Normally there's a covering over this, but this is just like straight wool. [01:00:29] Speaker B: Just straight wool, right. And it's thin. And it's thin as fuck. I think they were running a digital antenna for your tv station. [01:00:40] Speaker A: Wow. [01:00:40] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't think they had cable. Nice. No refrigerator, no microwave. [01:00:46] Speaker A: You weren't already looking at this job as, like, maybe this ain't the job. [01:00:49] Speaker B: No, bro, I'm telling you, I was looking at it by the worker, the people in the class. [01:00:53] Speaker C: You was looking at it before then because of the whole situation when it began. [01:00:57] Speaker B: Yeah, there was red flags planted all over the field. All over the field. And as soon as I got there, and what I didn't realize. So they call it a second chance company, right? So, like, if you've gotten in an accident before, come on, bro, right there. [01:01:14] Speaker A: You didn't even get accident. [01:01:15] Speaker B: But again, I didn't know that at the beginning, right? I didn't know that it was a second chance. I don't need a second. [01:01:20] Speaker C: You don't need a second chance, right? [01:01:23] Speaker B: I'm not a second chance nigga. [01:01:24] Speaker A: You need to know your worth. Know your worth, sis. [01:01:29] Speaker B: I didn't know, because again, I'm not a second chance nigga. So I didn't know that this is what it was. Right. But then when we get there, and I'm starting to see, okay, some people have had safety violations or something else that has gone on, or they hire felons. Right. So if you have a felony, they'll give you a shot. This type of shit, right, so you could build your reputation up in the industry. Right. [01:01:52] Speaker A: Which is great. [01:01:53] Speaker B: Yeah, it is. [01:01:53] Speaker C: I'm just wondering, how long into this did you go before you learned this? [01:01:58] Speaker B: Well, I learned that again. I called back, I'm like, I don't know if this is right. Like the first time when I was down and we were all waiting for the bus and I'm looking at the motherfuckers around. [01:02:10] Speaker C: Wait, this is after you got there? [01:02:12] Speaker B: Yeah. So this is after I got there. So I didn't know any of this before I got there. [01:02:15] Speaker C: Okay. [01:02:15] Speaker B: But when I get there, and it's the first morning that we go to class and everybody's down waiting on the bus, and I get in there and these niggas is playing their music all out and doing all this hood shit, right? And I'm just looking at everybody, and it's just like one of these things is not like the other. And I'm not trying to say, yeah, and I'm not trying to prop myself up, right. Because I know that I got a lot of. [01:02:40] Speaker A: What? No, man. [01:02:41] Speaker B: Come on. [01:02:42] Speaker A: Know your worth says. [01:02:44] Speaker B: Know your worth says you a queen. [01:02:47] Speaker A: That's black girl magic. You know what I'm saying? This is how black women taught each other. Know your worth, King. Know your worth, King. [01:02:54] Speaker B: I'm sitting down there like, yo, I'm just peeping the scene, right? And I'm like, yo, even the white people, it ain't just the black people. Even the white people is looking a. [01:03:04] Speaker A: Little third chance, right? [01:03:06] Speaker B: All looking sus, bro. And I'm like, maybe I'm not in the right spot. You know what I mean? But I'm no quitter, right? [01:03:18] Speaker C: This whole time, he was optimistic the whole time because, look, I'm dropping him off at the bus stop, and I'm like, man, this is red flags all over this shit. [01:03:27] Speaker B: Because, see, the bus was different because that was through Greyhound, and Greyhound was fucking up. [01:03:31] Speaker A: But I'm just saying, okay, how did you get to a Greyhound station? Who was the person just come to the Greyhound, make a. [01:03:40] Speaker B: No, it was a bus stop. [01:03:42] Speaker C: It wasn't a Greyhound station. [01:03:43] Speaker B: So it was in Norcross. They don't have a Greyhound facility. [01:03:46] Speaker A: It was a Greyhound ride chair or something. [01:03:48] Speaker B: It was a ride chair. [01:03:49] Speaker A: That poor greyhound. [01:03:50] Speaker C: It was a parking lot that had, like, four covered benches that greyhound buses come through and pick up people. [01:03:57] Speaker A: Where'd you get your ticket online. [01:03:58] Speaker B: Then they sent it to me. [01:04:00] Speaker A: They mailed your ticket. And there was never a point where you're like, you know, I've never had a company send a greyhound ticket for me before. [01:04:07] Speaker B: Listen, I've never been in this industry before. So all of this is, I'm like. And it's weird because once I get there, right, I'm talking to people and he's like, yo, I was at this other. No, no, it wasn't him. I was online and they were like, listen. And I was just looking at reviews of people that had worked for the company that don't anymore, right? And they're like, listen, I've been to these other companies. They flew me out, right? The hotel was cool. He's like, the hotel that they put you up in Tennessee is sus. And I'm like, damn, I'm watching this shit at the hotel. So I'm like, yeah, I know. Now. Like, I'm here. I get all of that. [01:04:43] Speaker C: Watching the shit at the hotel. [01:04:44] Speaker A: If it were me, the camera would have been across the street and I'd have been sent at the bus stop. The Greyhound would have pulled up. [01:04:53] Speaker B: And. [01:04:53] Speaker A: I'd be still standing at the fucking bus stop. I'm getting on this greyhound to go to some hotel in Tennessee. [01:05:02] Speaker B: And the first Greyhound bus too. That should have been my first ref. Like, the first Greyhound bus was hella late, right? Hella late. [01:05:09] Speaker C: Hella late. [01:05:10] Speaker B: So it was supposed to be two and then it was supposed to be four. And then it's supposed to be 412. This bitch showed up at like 445, right? Which automatically fucking fucked me up in Atlanta. I missed my connector, right? Yeah. The one I was supposed to catch in Atlanta to Tennessee. But when it showed up, it looked like half the cars in Atlanta, bumpers, you know, where the shit be dangling and bouncing. [01:05:31] Speaker A: The bus was fucked up. [01:05:32] Speaker B: Like that. The bus was fucked up. [01:05:33] Speaker A: How much does Burke county even cost now? $60. [01:05:35] Speaker B: I have no idea. Because they paid for it for me, right? They emailed me this ticket, right? But again, I didn't get on that bus because again, I was like, nah. They're like, you could get on it, but then you're going to sit in Atlanta until the next bus leaves at midnight. [01:05:49] Speaker A: What? [01:05:50] Speaker B: Yeah. And I'm like, nope, I'm not doing that. Right? I'm not gonna do that. And let's be clear. The Greyhound bus station in Atlanta. [01:05:57] Speaker A: Which one? Downtown, right by Magic Street. Garnett street? [01:06:00] Speaker B: Yeah, man. [01:06:01] Speaker A: It's every kind of shit going on. [01:06:02] Speaker B: Oh, my gosh. There was diseases in the chair, right? [01:06:06] Speaker A: By magic, right? [01:06:07] Speaker B: Yeah. It was a strip club right across from. Yeah. I was so sad. [01:06:11] Speaker A: There's a whole nother layer of life that's happening, bro. Underbelly. [01:06:16] Speaker B: I know that it was cold and shit, so I know that half the people in here sleeping are not waiting for a bus. They're not waiting to go anywhere. They're just getting out of the cold if they can. [01:06:26] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:06:27] Speaker B: And I was in there, and I was like, yo, that smell in here is different. It's different. [01:06:36] Speaker A: Where did it smell? [01:06:38] Speaker B: Project despair? [01:06:42] Speaker A: Purgatory? [01:06:43] Speaker B: Hopelessness? It funked like that. It reeked of, gosh, just take me away, Calgon. Like, fuck. And then the co part is, it's, like, under construction or something. So the bus don't even pull up to where you sitting. You got to come outside and walk down there. Halfway around the block. [01:07:00] Speaker A: It's always like that. [01:07:01] Speaker B: Oh, really? [01:07:02] Speaker A: Yeah. It's always been like that? [01:07:03] Speaker B: Yeah. Always been under construction or like, I felt like there used to be the greyhounds. I know. Like, the bus pulls up to the doors, right? Like, you come out, never pulled up. [01:07:11] Speaker A: To the doors in the back there places where they pull in and park. Like, the bus depot part is in the back, right? The office part is by the street. Yeah. [01:07:19] Speaker B: And then you got to walk. We had to walk around the corner. And the people working, I'm going to just say they were sassy motherfuckers that had questions. Don't have no questions for these motherfuckers. They're like, what did it say when a person came out over the intercom and spoke real fast that one time while everybody else was talking? What did they say? They didn't give a fuck who you were, right? Old people, young people, black, white. They didn't have any patience for anybody. Like, where are your ticket at? And I'm like, gosh damn, bro. He's just trying to figure out. I feel like people was getting put on the wrong buses. It was going to be some home alone shit. Like, you were supposed to be in New York, nigga, or Miami. You ended up in New York. Like, it was bad. [01:07:59] Speaker A: But I'm trying to figure out what I would ride the bus for. Like, what emergency would I get on the bus for? Can't think of one. [01:08:06] Speaker B: I honestly was kind of looking forward to a bus trip, because I haven't. So, again, this goes back to my youth. I used to catch the bus from my mom's house in LA to my dad house up in North Carolina, it. [01:08:17] Speaker A: Was nostalgia for you. [01:08:18] Speaker B: It was, right. I used to was. It was red trails or red trailways. And then the greyhound, I used to catch all them, right? And it was nothing. I mean, doing it by myself as an eight year old, nine year old type kid. Sure. Eight, nine before sounds of freedom was a thing. You know what I mean? [01:08:35] Speaker A: I haven't seen that yet. [01:08:37] Speaker B: That's pretty good. [01:08:38] Speaker A: Where's it showing? [01:08:39] Speaker B: Prime. Okay. [01:08:39] Speaker A: You have to pay for it though, right? [01:08:40] Speaker B: No. [01:08:40] Speaker A: Oh, cool. [01:08:41] Speaker B: It's free on prime right now. [01:08:42] Speaker A: It's sad though, right? [01:08:44] Speaker B: I ended up crying at the end. Of course I cried at the end. [01:08:47] Speaker A: Don't say anything. I want to watch it. [01:08:51] Speaker B: I was like, okay, I ain't been on a bus in fucking years. Let's get it. Let me go ahead and do that. Probably 18 or 19 was the last time I was on a bus. My car broke down in Everett, Washington. I had to catch a bus back to. [01:09:04] Speaker A: Now see, that makes sense, right? You're destitute. You're just trying to get back to where you got to go. I can see jumping on a bus or whatever, right? I can't think of any emergency where I'm here in Atlanta and I'm like, I got to get somewhere and I choose bus. [01:09:18] Speaker B: What about train? [01:09:19] Speaker A: Like Amtrak? [01:09:20] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:09:21] Speaker A: It's kind of difficult. I've never done it like a train. [01:09:24] Speaker B: From here to cross the country, you see, because they advertise it as kind of a scenic type of. [01:09:30] Speaker A: But you got to pay for that. Good seat, though. If you just in a regular. I don't want to sit in a regular Amtrak seat for 16 hours. [01:09:35] Speaker B: No, listen, let me be clear. [01:09:37] Speaker C: Amtrak cool. [01:09:38] Speaker B: I don't know. [01:09:39] Speaker C: No, I'm saying Amtrak cool. I remember when I moved to Shreveport, I took Amtrak down there. It was like a three day trip. [01:09:44] Speaker B: And they give you a room. [01:09:45] Speaker C: Yeah, we had a door that closed. [01:09:49] Speaker A: Yeah, it has to be like that. [01:09:51] Speaker C: Had the little bunk thing or whatnot. Or whatnot. I didn't really spend too much time in there. My girl at the time was he was in the cafe car being bad and shit, but. [01:10:01] Speaker B: Okay. What's happening in the cafe car? [01:10:04] Speaker A: How bad were you? [01:10:05] Speaker C: It wasn't nothing too bad. It was just we. [01:10:07] Speaker B: Is that where the pimples are? [01:10:08] Speaker C: We would just open the door where the cafe car was and we would go in there and we'd be stealing snacks and shit. I was bringing the bag down there and so niggas are smoking. So I was selling tree and winning money, playing chess and it was great. [01:10:25] Speaker B: Okay. Some hood shit. See, again, that's the old school hood shit. That's not what these niggas is on today. [01:10:30] Speaker C: Well, yeah, that's what I was saying earlier. You know what I mean? Like I was saying on the way here, that old school, like late 80s, early 90s, well, everybody sees it as the Southern California thing, but norcal was kind of similar, you know what I mean? But just that lifestyle, that hood shit was cool. [01:10:46] Speaker B: Maybe it's just. You know what it is? [01:10:47] Speaker A: Maybe, Mac, that's just changing it up. Because the whole point of the hood is, and I'm talking about the loud mouths. [01:10:55] Speaker B: Yeah, right. [01:10:56] Speaker A: The loud mouths. Their whole thing is, I got to scare you into being intimidated so that I can kind of get my way. I can manipulate this situation. I don't have shit else going for me, so I'm going to just act real fucking ignorant and loud and tough. And that way, a lot of people will just not want to engage because they're like, I don't need this kind of stress my life. He might really be crazy, right? But the problem comes, though, is how do you one up that if you are already an old school hood nigga who's already loud and crazy, how can you one up that guy? So you got to be louder and crazier. And maybe we just gotten to the point where they're so loud and so crazy now to where you don't even recognize it anymore. And also, it's like, I can't do this. [01:11:32] Speaker B: Yeah, I can't. I really can't. Because Hood has evolved. [01:11:37] Speaker C: I think it's like Max said not too long ago, I believe it was on the show when he was talking about, there ain't no more ogs anymore. [01:11:47] Speaker B: There is a lack of. What's the name? I don't know if it was when I posted on Twitter, but, yeah, I think it was like when that dude just. The girl was talking shit to him and he just stood up and bopped. I mean, he just. In school, he crushed her. And I'm like. And they're like, what would you do? I'm like, see, none of my folks could do that. No dudes that I know that I raise or that I fucking mentor is going to strike and punch a chick like that over some. It wasn't like when she spit on that one we had where the dude. She spit in that dude's face, or she was really loud. She just was saying something, something. And he just jumped up and just clocked her. And I was just like, see, again, that's a lack, to me, of an OG. You don't have anybody teaching you better. It's almost like that one video I posted on our Twitter account where those fucking infants were dancing around at their party with guns. [01:12:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:12:40] Speaker B: You know what I mean? And it's like, who the fuck? But they're surrounded by adults. There's, like, at least adults who didn't have ogs, too. It must not have. [01:12:49] Speaker A: I saw one other day where a dude is coming the stairwell, and a dude's coming up the stairs, and a girl's coming down the stairs. He can't see her until she gets around the corner, but as soon as he sees her, no worry. I'm talking about split Second. He punches her in the face, knocks her down, kicks her twice in the face. She's bloody and everything, these other two dudes. Then he turns around and goes back down the stairs and leaves these other two guys all black. The black guys are coming up the stairs. They see her. They don't even speak to her. She's leaning against the door. They grab the door and move her out of the way with the door and just walk inside. [01:13:18] Speaker B: See, and this is the weird thing, right? [01:13:20] Speaker A: Because I saw that video. I didn't understand that video at all because I was like, you're not talking to the mic. I didn't understand that video at all because it was on site. You didn't even say, oh, there you go, bitch. [01:13:30] Speaker B: It's weird because I remember being in junior high, high school, I used to fight dudes that hit girls, and I didn't even know the girl. I didn't need to, but I just. It was helpful. Kevin Sable. It was helpful. But at the same time, I think that you're a big ass bitch. Like, if this is how you will do a chick, you're not tough, nigga. You're not hard. [01:13:51] Speaker A: I feel the same way about dudes that bully little, like, asian kids and stuff. I feel exactly the same. Like, that dude doesn't have the capacity to fight you back. Not just that. He hasn't have the fight bone in his. [01:14:01] Speaker C: He doesn't want to fight you, and you know that. [01:14:03] Speaker A: Yeah. Like, he's trying to turn away from you and get away from you, and you're still grabbing him and making him come back and punch him in his face. Right, like you deserve. Get your ass whooped, too. [01:14:10] Speaker B: For sure. I'll never forget that happened to me one time. My homeboy Rube said we was about to fight these niggas, right? And there was two of them and two of us. And dude that Ruben was about to fight, he wanted to fight. His homeboy didn't want to smoke. And he's like, get him. I'm like, this nigga don't want it, bro. I don't got that in me. [01:14:30] Speaker A: There's nothing like, player about that. [01:14:32] Speaker B: I don't got that in me, dude. I'm serious. Like, if he don't want it, I don't got nothing for. And that's when I learned that I need to have a certain switch or something that makes me want to fuck you up. It can't just be. I mean, now you wanting to fight me, that could be enough. But it can't be me just beating on people that don't. [01:14:54] Speaker A: And now look how you've moved. Now you want to be a hitman now you don't even need to know the niggas just tell me when balls. Tell me who balls. [01:15:04] Speaker C: I do remember hearing that in episode. [01:15:08] Speaker B: You got to take that into all the whole consideration, too, because we were moving like, we were having our own place. Right? Right. We were going to take all of the black people that wanted to go that were about some shit. And I'm saying, look, somebody got to be this dude. I'm going to take this off of everybody else's plate. Like, this is the burden that I will put on me, so no one else has to feel any sort of way. [01:15:32] Speaker C: He sounds real sad about it, doesn't he? He sounds like it's the last resort. [01:15:38] Speaker A: Sounds like it. [01:15:38] Speaker C: I don't have a choice here. [01:15:40] Speaker A: It's not me, it's you. [01:15:42] Speaker B: I just know what? Listen, that's so altruistic, bro. I'm just sitting here, like, really, everybody else is good because they don't have to do this dirty again. Somebody's got to be a trash man. No, the funny thing is, he didn't. [01:15:59] Speaker C: Volunteer to be the trash man. [01:16:00] Speaker B: No, because again, in this community, he. [01:16:05] Speaker C: Wants to be the hitman. [01:16:06] Speaker B: Listen, the motherfuckers that need to be kicked out or taken out or that want to try to come in and start some shit, your service. Listen, providing the service. Yeah, it's just a service, man. Listen, everybody sleep. Sleep well. Sleep well. And I will, too, because I feel like there's a reason behind it, right? Like, it's not just because, it's because of a reason. Because I don't need anyone else to have to do this. [01:16:31] Speaker A: Well, when you moved to Mexico, hitman shouldn't be your job, because I learned that you can get somebody murdered for about $2,000. What about if it's more high profile? [01:16:42] Speaker B: I mean, that might know. [01:16:44] Speaker A: Listen, it's the worker. What does the worker expect? Yeah, $2,000, you can get somebody murdered. And the crazy part about that is most people can't even afford to get you murdered. [01:16:54] Speaker B: I was going to say, if I could keep steady work, that might be. Do you know what I mean? Like one a week, it sounds like. [01:17:00] Speaker C: You can't keep steady work. [01:17:01] Speaker B: Yeah. If you could get one a week, you know what I mean? [01:17:05] Speaker A: Directly for the cartel, that's good pay. [01:17:07] Speaker B: Like one a. [01:17:09] Speaker C: No, man, you may not like their retirement plan. [01:17:12] Speaker B: Yeah, no, for sure. You don't want that Cali. You don't want that cartel, that Cali cartel, that Medellin retirement plan. I don't think anybody. So, yeah, I'd be an independent contractor. Like a ho. You know what I mean? No pimp over here, but just two g's. No. Because again, I think that would be troublesome. Because again, now I don't know why. [01:17:35] Speaker C: I don't know. To me that just seems like that just leads to a lot of problems. [01:17:38] Speaker A: What? [01:17:39] Speaker C: You let the ho be the ho, but she can't have the pimp. The pimp is illegal. So you can't tell me it's not happening, though. She isn't pimped. You can't tell me that's not happening. And one, if you got hypothetically, right. I'm my own person. I'm just doing this here. And niggas aren't robbing her. [01:17:57] Speaker B: Who's her protection? Exactly. Like Bridge Reggie said they need protection. They need men. [01:18:02] Speaker C: Exactly. And that's what saying, like, how does that work? [01:18:05] Speaker A: Maybe other hoes. [01:18:06] Speaker B: Oh, come on, man. [01:18:07] Speaker C: What's the safety of numbers? [01:18:08] Speaker B: What is the city? [01:18:09] Speaker A: Maybe this isn't America and you've been propagandized. What Mexico actually is and there's not rob. [01:18:13] Speaker B: Or maybe we're just thinking about the. [01:18:15] Speaker C: Game in general and how it works here and thinking it works the same way. [01:18:18] Speaker A: Because in Colombia, the holes in Colombia, it might be respected, are technically regular girls. It's not like what I mean by regular girls. They still go to school. They have a future. [01:18:30] Speaker B: The hoes out here go to school, too. [01:18:32] Speaker A: True. But it's not like just some rest. [01:18:34] Speaker C: Differently. The occupation is not seen the same way. [01:18:39] Speaker A: She don't necessarily look dirty, too. [01:18:41] Speaker B: But it doesn't matter if she doesn't have any protection. She's in vulnerable situations. [01:18:45] Speaker A: Right, but the clientele over there is not going to try to rob her. [01:18:50] Speaker C: Have you seen Firefly? [01:18:52] Speaker B: No. [01:18:52] Speaker C: So in Firefly, it's kind of like in that version of the world or whatever it's supposed to be like in the future or whatever, the only powers left are the US and China or whatever. But basically in that time frame or whatnot, the occupation of being a ho is like something that's almost like royalty. Like they're respected figures in the community. Sort of like they're treated like royalty type thing. [01:19:15] Speaker A: No, this ain't that. [01:19:16] Speaker C: No, I'm just saying that's obviously extreme. But what I mean is in different cultures, it could be seen differently. [01:19:24] Speaker B: Exactly. [01:19:24] Speaker A: I think it's just that in the part of Mexico that I'm in, there are police officers everywhere and they're carrying Ar fifteen s and you don't hurt prostitutes or you're going to get hurt. So there's no need for that. [01:19:39] Speaker C: Yeah, I guess that does change the game a little bit. If the police are on your listen. [01:19:43] Speaker B: Oh, for sure. Right. [01:19:44] Speaker A: Well, they're not necessarily on your side, but they're just like, they're not dealing with no bullshit. Nobody's going to try. There's no muggings, no robberies, there's no people breaking in your house. There's none of that shit. Because there are people literally on every fourth or fifth block with Ars like. [01:19:58] Speaker B: The motherfucker in the Philippines. But again, there's no crime. There's. Right. The motherfuckers know that. Right. And because you know that, you act accordingly, I think know it's almost like children, right. It's almost like raising children. They'll get away with whatever you allow them to get away with. And in America, we're allowed to get away with a lot of shit. Murder, in essence. Literally. There's motherfuckers that literally will have murdered motherfuckers and not gone to jail or did very minimal time. Someone else has maybe stole some shit and did way more time than someone who actually murdered somebody. So I think the deterrent that we have as far as that's concerned is not there. Maybe I do, maybe I don't. Maybe I just. [01:20:49] Speaker C: Jail is never, I don't feel. I guess it's a deterrent for a lot of people, I guess because for me it is. [01:20:55] Speaker A: I don't want to go to jail. [01:20:55] Speaker C: Yeah, because this is a deterrent for me. But I'm saying I don't think it's a deterrent for the people who aren't as maybe as mentally sound as us. [01:21:04] Speaker B: In this room or societally, that's not the right word. Or connected to society. If they don't really have a connection to the society that they're in, then jail is nothing, right? [01:21:16] Speaker A: Yeah. If your dad and your older brother have been to prison their whole lives, it's like you're not special. It's like I'm eventually end up there, right? [01:21:24] Speaker B: And then you go there and it's like, listen, I don't even got to do shit. They feed everybody, right? I get taken care of. I have three hots in a cot, I don't have to worry about. I mean, only thing I have to worry about is fighting other motherfuckers, but. [01:21:41] Speaker A: Really getting some boy pussy. [01:21:43] Speaker C: Yeah, listen, I heard literally five plus one. [01:21:47] Speaker B: Listen, five years plus to me, that's the deterrent right there, right? Like if there was coed prisons, like camp, send me to jail, you know I what mean? Like give a fuck. But the fact that there's absence of pussy. Yeah, that's enough right there, man. That's it. That'll do it. Because there's nothing worse, right. To know that, especially if you haven't had it. Now, if you've never had pussy, you've been in jail since you've been twelve and in and out and all of this bullshit. You never got pussy before. But if you've gotten pussy and now you just. It's not there. It's fucked up, man. That's some fucked up shit. [01:22:28] Speaker A: Let me ask you something. Talking about getting pussy, would you rather date a woman with three kids and two baby daddies or three kids and one baby daddy? Three kids and two baby. So she got three kids regardless. Yeah. The difference is she has one baby daddy or two baby daddies. Yeah. Why not three baby daddies? This is not your question. [01:22:49] Speaker B: I think that, to me is a no brainer. [01:22:51] Speaker A: Is it? Yeah. Is it? [01:22:52] Speaker C: Well, to me it is, yeah. [01:22:54] Speaker A: Which one is it? [01:22:55] Speaker B: The lesser of it? Why would I be daddy? [01:22:57] Speaker A: Yeah, I disagree. I disagree too. Because I was like three kids. One Baby daddy is a whole lot different for me than three kids and two baby daddies. [01:23:03] Speaker B: So again, this is a. I got two different issues I got with niggas now, right? Like there's two different says. [01:23:10] Speaker A: I think you have two lesser issues than you would with the one. [01:23:14] Speaker B: So with two baby daddies, there's two different dudes now that have a say so over. [01:23:20] Speaker A: But I would say they have less of a say because there are two of them already. [01:23:25] Speaker B: So they're diluted, right. [01:23:26] Speaker A: As opposed to one dude like, that's my bitch. That's my kids I look at. That's always his girl. You living in my house. But if it's two, what about the other dude? [01:23:33] Speaker B: Oh, you're right. He already in a split time. [01:23:36] Speaker A: Right. Everybody already gets it. The second baby daddy knows he's not the first. And the first baby daddy knows has already been another one. He got kids by her, too. So we know nobody got claims on this woman. [01:23:47] Speaker C: That is an excellent point. [01:23:49] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:23:49] Speaker A: Is that what you were going to say? Yeah, exactly. [01:23:51] Speaker C: That is an excellent point. [01:23:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:23:53] Speaker A: Because again, that niggas basically married to your girl. [01:23:56] Speaker C: I was just thinking about not having to deal with. [01:23:59] Speaker A: That's his girl. [01:24:00] Speaker C: He thinks that's his girl because obviously it ain't. But you're right. That nigga think it is perceived. And in that perception, him thinking that means he going to perceive you in a certain kind of way. You might be right about that one because I wouldn't think about it from. [01:24:15] Speaker A: That age, especially if that third one is like real young. That third baby is like two years old. Are you fucking, I think two years. [01:24:22] Speaker B: Ago, my thought process again, in this is, again, I was thinking her part of it, right? Like, again. Okay, so she ain't been with. You only said two, not three. Right? Because I think that makes a difference too. Right. [01:24:39] Speaker C: Well, that's not necessarily true. That's how many she had kids with. [01:24:44] Speaker B: No. [01:24:45] Speaker A: Right. Spread that pussy out. [01:24:46] Speaker B: No, I get it. I get it. But again, as far as out there, letting niggas drop seeds in it, you know what I mean? Again, she ain't been harvested by hella niggas. [01:24:55] Speaker C: A perception, too. [01:24:57] Speaker A: If it's anybody else's kid but mine, it don't matter how many there are. It's like somebody else is nutted in this woman and has a kid. [01:25:04] Speaker C: Yeah. Whether it was. [01:25:05] Speaker A: Whether it's one or two guys 20 times, I don't give a, like, I'm not parsing the amount of sperm that she's. [01:25:10] Speaker B: You got to just come in like the male lion and just draw all the little ones. [01:25:15] Speaker A: Kill the kids. [01:25:15] Speaker B: Yeah, just get, draw and just start you fresh. [01:25:18] Speaker C: Start all over. [01:25:18] Speaker B: Start fresh. [01:25:21] Speaker A: Just accident after accident. [01:25:22] Speaker B: Sounds of freedom these motherfuckers for a little bit. That's not funny. [01:25:26] Speaker A: I haven't seen the movie, but that can't be funny. That joke can't be funny. So I'm going to save you from. Save from your own destruction on that one. Yeah, I was talking to some people. [01:25:37] Speaker B: Hold up, though. Let's be clear, right? Because we talked about this shit before, right, about everything having a price. [01:25:42] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:25:42] Speaker B: Right? So I was talking to an adult, right? And they were like, would you sell me? And I'm like, everything got a price, right? And I'm like, so if someone said that they would give you $10 million right now for the ability to be with me or whatever the fuck, you wouldn't take it? [01:26:00] Speaker A: No. [01:26:00] Speaker B: They were like, no. And I'm like, that's what I said. I said, you say that now, but. [01:26:06] Speaker A: 10 million to me for they can fuck you. [01:26:09] Speaker B: So, again, not you. You can't give me away. It's like, listen, so the person I'm with right now, they go here, you walk away, $10 million that you get out of this relationship. They're single, so I can have my shot. [01:26:22] Speaker A: No. Okay, so you're talking about you're in a relationship with a girl, right? And somebody offers your girl 10 million. No. [01:26:28] Speaker B: You. No. [01:26:29] Speaker A: Her offers you all 10 million for him to have sex with her. [01:26:32] Speaker B: No. 10 million just to get out of the relationship and be done with her. And then. [01:26:37] Speaker C: So that way he's free to do what he wants. [01:26:39] Speaker B: Right? [01:26:39] Speaker A: He wants to pay you for your girl's. [01:26:41] Speaker B: For your relationship, right? [01:26:43] Speaker A: And that's not what you asked at first, is it? [01:26:45] Speaker B: I don't think it was similar. That's what I was thinking. [01:26:47] Speaker A: Okay. [01:26:48] Speaker B: That's not what he said. That's not what they heard either, because they were pissed off. And I'm like, listen, everything has a price. Like, if someone was going to give you $10 million not to fuck with me, so that, whatever. And you didn't take it, I'd be mad at you. I'd be mad at you for not $10 million. Is life changing. Like, what are you doing? What do you think we're going to do? Right? [01:27:12] Speaker C: We can break up next week over some bullshit, right? [01:27:14] Speaker B: 10 million. You ain't taking it. [01:27:16] Speaker A: I think I'm going to make 10 million without it, right? [01:27:18] Speaker B: So again, maybe that's not your price, but you're the one that said everything's got a price. It does, right? [01:27:25] Speaker C: That's just not his price, I guess, right? [01:27:26] Speaker B: No, he needs more, right? I mean, the rich niggas need more money. That's just how it works. [01:27:32] Speaker C: My middle class has. That is a lot of money. [01:27:34] Speaker B: I'll take that shit. [01:27:35] Speaker A: I don't even get out of bed for 10 million. [01:27:41] Speaker B: Niggas looking for a job, they can say 10 million. Like, shit, I can stop looking. Shit. [01:27:47] Speaker C: That bitch pissed me off last night. Give me that money. [01:27:49] Speaker B: Right? [01:27:50] Speaker A: I mean, I'm always looking at like, yo, we'll break up for a year. Like, wink. That's what. I'll take the 10 million. Take the 10 million with a wink. [01:27:57] Speaker B: That's what I'm saying. [01:27:57] Speaker A: We're going to take a six month break or something. What was the return policy? What was going to ask for a refund for the 10 million? We don't own her. [01:28:04] Speaker C: If she breaks up with the what's in the fine print condition proposal. [01:28:08] Speaker B: It was a million for a night. [01:28:09] Speaker C: Yeah, it was just a million. Just to fuck her type thing. [01:28:12] Speaker B: It was even a fuck, right? She didn't sign up to necessarily say, we going to fuck. [01:28:16] Speaker A: So here's my. If we're talking about indecent proposal, my wife don't even got to ask me. Don't even call, don't even text. Just go do it and come back. You know what I'm saying? I don't know if she does, but I'm sure she probably feels the same way. If we get that proposal, just go ahead. You ain't got to even call. Just like, oh, hey, I got this crazy proposal. Let's just let you know I won't be home tonight, right? That's a privilege. You don't even have to do that. Like, if it's $10 million for a night, man, just go get that 10 million. [01:28:43] Speaker B: Right? [01:28:44] Speaker A: You're talking about I got to break up with her. Now? That's a little different because there's a lot of things we have together that. [01:28:50] Speaker C: Marriage is different than a boyfriend girlfriend. [01:28:52] Speaker B: Yeah, for sure. And I'm not married ever again. [01:28:56] Speaker C: Boyfriend girlfriend thing would be simple. Because literally, you can be, all right, we broke up, and then tomorrow we back together. It's that simple. [01:29:03] Speaker B: Or what if you say no and then we break up a week later? That's exactly what I said. [01:29:09] Speaker C: That's why to me, it's stupid not to take it because we can break up next week over some bullshit, right? And now I ain't got no 10 million, and I still ain't got your ass anyway. [01:29:16] Speaker B: Ass out. [01:29:17] Speaker A: So what's your number, then? Where's the cut off where you say. [01:29:20] Speaker B: You wouldn't do it? [01:29:21] Speaker A: Because 10 million, that's a lot. [01:29:23] Speaker B: Yeah, no 10 million, I would do. [01:29:25] Speaker C: It for a lot less. [01:29:26] Speaker A: Reel it in. [01:29:27] Speaker C: I'm not even going to lie. I do it for a lot less than that, too. [01:29:30] Speaker A: Really? What's your number? [01:29:31] Speaker B: I do it for 100,000. [01:29:33] Speaker A: Okay. Is that the lowest or where are you at? Mac? [01:29:36] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, I think you need six figures for show, honestly. [01:29:40] Speaker C: And also, it depends, too. Is this my wife or is this my girlfriend? [01:29:42] Speaker B: Not just girlfriend, because. [01:29:44] Speaker C: I don't know. I think I'd feel different about wife than girlfriend, for sure. Because I think if it was wife, there's thought process. [01:29:53] Speaker B: God is involved. [01:29:55] Speaker C: If it's girlfriend, I just don't think there's any thought process. [01:30:00] Speaker A: With the wink, wink. We're going to get back together, wink or no wink. [01:30:06] Speaker C: Unless I'm planning on marrying this girl someday or something. [01:30:08] Speaker A: French is lying. [01:30:09] Speaker B: But see, that's the thing. [01:30:10] Speaker A: I got a number. [01:30:11] Speaker C: My thought process is different now, though. [01:30:13] Speaker A: What's your number? French. Oh, we can start at. Okay, we can start there. French. Reggie, that I know, doesn't do that sharing his woman thing. There's not a relationship no more if he got to share her. That's what I remember. French Reggie. That's what I remember, too. But 500k is the number where you change your mind. Well, we breaking up, so she's no longer my girl. [01:30:33] Speaker B: I didn't share her. [01:30:34] Speaker A: I got 500k, so she's no longer my girl. [01:30:36] Speaker C: You wouldn't do that for Les? [01:30:38] Speaker A: I can start 500k. Yeah, we starting at 500k. [01:30:42] Speaker B: She listens. [01:30:43] Speaker A: It's not even because she listens. [01:30:45] Speaker B: That makes sense. [01:30:45] Speaker A: It's going to have to be something that I could really like, even though less. Could be, like, a little bit that. [01:30:51] Speaker B: Makes sense, could be a little bit. [01:30:52] Speaker A: Life changing, but some shit that makes a dramatic shift to lifestyle. I can start with 500k. Your girl's worth 500k? Don't say it like that. [01:31:01] Speaker C: Yeah, don't say that because you'll never get that one. [01:31:03] Speaker A: She's priceless. [01:31:04] Speaker B: But my bad perspectives, right, in foreign countries, man, you just point your soul at, like, I think it's Korea or Vietnam or some shit like that. That's a sign of disrespect. [01:31:16] Speaker A: Yeah, no, I think it's muslim countries. [01:31:18] Speaker B: Oh, is it muslim? [01:31:19] Speaker A: Yeah, I think so. [01:31:20] Speaker B: Don't even point your souls at me. [01:31:21] Speaker A: Right, like, right now. How these guys leg cross. You can't even do that. They'll come talk. They got to tell you that shit. At the airport, you would think so. Some shit like that. You got to let people know. At the airport, you would think so. [01:31:32] Speaker C: Like international flight. [01:31:33] Speaker A: Here's a rulebook, american. There's a shit before you leave the Dubai. Like, I'm going to need to read all the rules before I go there. Americans are so full of shit. [01:31:43] Speaker B: Why? [01:31:44] Speaker A: Because we just think people owe us something. Have you all seen him, like, getting on tyrese about wearing that muslim dress? Yeah, dress. See, you didn't call it a dress, but it's a Muslim. He's just wearing an outfit that everyone in that country pretty much wears. But they're clowning toy. They got another black man to put on a dress. People just don't know what the fuck they're talking about. [01:32:03] Speaker B: It's not Wu Tang. [01:32:04] Speaker C: They ain't got him acting like they ain't got him, like, cross dressing in a movie. [01:32:07] Speaker B: Right. [01:32:08] Speaker C: He's wearing a men's robe that ain't even related. They were talking about black people having to wear dresses in movies. [01:32:15] Speaker A: I know. And all the cops, like, man, they always trying to get us, man. It's because the picture Hollywood. It's because of the way the picture look. It was Tyrese. [01:32:21] Speaker C: This is that woke crowd. [01:32:22] Speaker A: Yeah. It was Tyrese in that robe with a bunch of white men next to him with suits. [01:32:28] Speaker B: Who did I just see in a motherfucking wig and some shit? It was dude from the wire with the scar. Was that Omar? [01:32:34] Speaker A: Omar? His name is Michael. Yeah. [01:32:35] Speaker B: That scene with some running. He was running like he was the kind of the boss, but he was. [01:32:46] Speaker A: What. [01:32:50] Speaker B: He was like. So he was in charge of these bitches, but he was the top bitch, right? And he was acting like the top bitch. He was very sassy. And a dude was coming for information, like the cop was. And he's like, listen, this is the last time. And this, that. And he was talking like, know. And I was just like. And he had this know. What is that water buffalo wig that kind of, like, comes down and swoops out on. What was this in fuck, I can't remember this shit, man. [01:33:15] Speaker A: Well, I mean, Omar was gay as. [01:33:16] Speaker B: So, yeah, he was gay as hell in the. [01:33:18] Speaker A: So, I mean, I don't know that that guy's gay in real life, but. [01:33:21] Speaker B: Yeah, that's a good point, because he was gay as hell when they killed his know. He took that to heart. [01:33:27] Speaker A: And they talking about Neo was in a dress now, because Neo was on the Internet talking about he's just from a different generation where a boy is a boy and a girl is a girl or whatever. And then I guess that was mass singer. Exactly. They clowned him about being in a dress. He was on mass Singer. You're supposed to throw the people off so they don't know who you are. So when he won, he took his hat off, and the wrestler was like a dress. And it was like an animal. It was an animal in a dress, right. But people like, oh, see, they make you come back around. Once you piss off the wrong crowd, they're going to make you. They're going to force you, they're going to humiliate you. This is not the same. [01:33:59] Speaker B: I'm going to say it like this. If Dave Chappelle and men and tights could do it, I could do like. I'm not trying to be too wong fu. Yeah. [01:34:08] Speaker A: I thought the whole reason why this whole dress shit started is because Dave Chappelle was like, have you seen everybody? They forced them to wear? I haven't seen. [01:34:19] Speaker B: In men in tights. They were trying to sneak into the fucking thing and they were dressed up as maidens and. Yeah, they all were. But all of the men in tights were. It wasn't just a fucking one black guy. It was the whole fucking Robin Hood and the whole crew. So I guess if you don't want to be, it's like we parse out just us. Right? It's like it's us thing. Even though it's just how many white. [01:34:44] Speaker A: People have been in dresses for comedic. [01:34:47] Speaker B: Right. [01:34:50] Speaker A: It's too much, man. They're the details. Again, here we go with those details. [01:34:54] Speaker B: What was his name back in the day? He had the whole alter ego, the comedian guy that fucking. I can't think of his name right now. [01:35:02] Speaker A: Tracy Morgan. [01:35:03] Speaker B: No, it was before Tracy Morgan. This is like in the know. [01:35:08] Speaker A: You tell my camera his name, though. Yeah, Maybelline or something. [01:35:11] Speaker B: Like he had a fucking black Roxanne alter ego. [01:35:15] Speaker A: Part of his act was that. [01:35:16] Speaker B: Right? And I don't know if I thought that he was gay. [01:35:21] Speaker C: Jamie Foxx and Wanda, I mean, for real. [01:35:23] Speaker A: I know you ain't trophy. [01:35:25] Speaker C: Martin and Shanae, man. [01:35:27] Speaker B: And those are two fucking iconic people. That shit is funny as shit. [01:35:31] Speaker A: But they're saying that that is it, though. Like, you have to cross that to get to the money or whatever. You have to do that. Meanwhile, Kanye west apologized. Did you see that? Yeah, he apologized in Hebrew. Yeah. [01:35:44] Speaker B: For what? [01:35:46] Speaker A: About for state upsetting jewish people. He apologizes. He thinks nothing but the best of jewish people. He got an album coming out. He probably stopping his. And he's going to work to make sure they know it. [01:36:00] Speaker B: After all that, you take all that. [01:36:02] Speaker C: Money away, it start to affect him. [01:36:03] Speaker A: Yeah. And he got an album coming out. [01:36:05] Speaker C: And they probably start to affect real talk. [01:36:07] Speaker A: He won't let some samples clear, some stuff like that. [01:36:09] Speaker B: I know this is not even the topic. But I know that video that you sent me about. What was it, the Trinity? What was the ship? What was that ship that had got attacked back in the naval ship? And they fucking covered it up. [01:36:27] Speaker A: Yeah. I can't remember the name of it. [01:36:28] Speaker B: I forget the name. I think it might have been the Trinity or something like that. But they basically got. I mean, they. Israel punked the entire fucking. We think that we're in that. In this video. So the premises there was a naval ship that was just like a spy ship kind of deal, and it was off of the coast and it got attacked by Israel. And they knew it was an american ship. Fucked it up, shooting the lifeboats. I mean, doing all kind of like. They're trying to do their worst to this ship to make sure that everyone. [01:37:04] Speaker A: On it is dead. Everyone on it. [01:37:06] Speaker C: I remember we always talking about. [01:37:09] Speaker B: Know, the survivors are told, hey, don't say nothing. Really, right? And I think it was Johnson at the time was the president. And they're like, telling him like, bro, if you want to reelect, we got that kind of. Don't. You don't kind of make this shit. [01:37:26] Speaker A: A big deal, right? [01:37:27] Speaker B: Don't make this a big deal. And you can have a second term, but if not, I don't know if you'll have the backing that you think you need to get reelected type shit, right? Motherfuckers is getting purple hearts that are survivors, right, right. But not like everybody else. Not even by the president, you know what I mean? Like they're fucking down in some basement getting their fucking purple hearts and shit. [01:37:46] Speaker A: Kind of like Shaq's doctorate, right? [01:37:50] Speaker B: While the president's fucking handing out diplomas on national television, right, to high school kids and shit, right? Making sure that he's not affiliated visually with their accommodations and shit. The fucking survivors families are told, listen, don't say nothing, right? And you think, well, damn, we think of us as Americans as the biggest, baddest bully on the block. I watched this and was like, we got punked. Like, real talk. Like, motherfucker slapped us in our mouth, told us to shut up and don't say nothing about it. And we was like, yes, ma'am. And didn't say shit about it and kind of let it go. We're good. And really, it showed me to. It kind of crystallized the shit, right? I'm like, okay. Everybody asking, like, why are you afraid? Listen, if America in general, like, our government, is that scary, right? And people hate when I say it like that, but no, if you're scary, of them like that to the point where they can intimidate you to not even defend your own fucking people, then I don't know what chance a regular motherfucker has or other countries have, because again, we're that motherfucker. We're the ones that go in and stomp motherfuckers asses. We do that shit. [01:39:09] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:39:09] Speaker B: And they're like, act like this didn't happen or we'll deal with it on the other end. And we're like, okay, it's going to. [01:39:19] Speaker A: Be tough for you if you don't let it fly, right? [01:39:21] Speaker B: And I'm just like, well, goddamn, when you see the bully get bullied, you do have to look at the person that just did that and with a whole different light. Like, goddamn, I don't even know. That motherfucker is only five foot two. You know what I mean? But the bully didn't want none. [01:39:38] Speaker C: There's something. [01:39:39] Speaker B: There's something. [01:39:39] Speaker C: There's something there, right, that I don't. [01:39:42] Speaker B: Want none of, right? Like, again, if the nigga that I was afraid of is afraid of them, there might be something to that, right? And it just put it into more perspective of why they're like, oh, why did Jamie Foxx come out and apologize, right? And why do these people come out and do these and say these things after the fact? And I'm like, yeah, I don't know either, but I can see that there's definitely something there that makes people want to not fuck with them. I don't know what it is, but. [01:40:08] Speaker A: Play that one video. When everything from government to any company in the world, all the members or board members were part of that community. [01:40:16] Speaker B: Did you see what's his name? [01:40:18] Speaker A: That lets you know right there, you can't fuck with them. They connected in every facet of the world. [01:40:22] Speaker B: Do you see what's his name? What was his. [01:40:26] Speaker A: With the guy from House of Rappaport? [01:40:30] Speaker B: He was on. What was that? [01:40:31] Speaker A: Tucker Carson. [01:40:32] Speaker B: He was in the ice Cube movie was higher learning where he played the skin hair. [01:40:36] Speaker A: Talking shit about Kanye. [01:40:37] Speaker B: No, he was talking shit about everybody. He said he's keeping receipts. He didn't say he. He said, we are. We're keeping receipts to everybody out here that ain't saying the right things. And I'm like, bro, how can you say this on social media like this? This is low key. God damn. You are really saying what everybody is accusing you all of saying or being about. You're really just backing it up. Like, listen. And he's like, look, when you come for that money, when you come for this or when you come for that, we're keeping receipts. And I'm like, yo, that is. [01:41:15] Speaker A: But you can talk like that. Even Kanye, when Kanye originally made his rent and that one time, TMZ stopped him, and he pulled out his phone and he showed all the red. He was showing you how every member from Johnson Johnson to Def Jam, whatever, water company, you name it, they're part of it. So it was like, what can you really do if they're connected to everything? [01:41:38] Speaker B: Yeah, you get cut off. I guess that herd mentality is real. Like, we all want to be part of the herd. Real talk. Because, again, outside of the herd is scary. It's dangerous. That's where the fucking lions lurk. And that's where motherfuckers get eaten. And if you're not part of the herd, if you can't get that security inside the herd or be part of it, be connected, that's a fucking cold place to be. And I don't know. Who wants to be that way? I don't know. I don't want to be there. [01:42:06] Speaker C: I was just going to say it's cold outside, bro. [01:42:08] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:42:08] Speaker B: I don't want to be there, but to see our government. Because, again, I grew up thinking America is the fucking biggest, strongest. [01:42:17] Speaker A: I still think that, though. [01:42:19] Speaker B: Did you watch the video? Because he sent it to both of us. I don't know if you watched it. [01:42:23] Speaker A: But I still think that. I think America is just very tactical with how, bro? [01:42:26] Speaker B: Tactical, schmactical, bro. [01:42:29] Speaker A: Because America still needs them for the sake of America. [01:42:32] Speaker B: Well, what do they need us for? Because obviously it didn't seem like anything. They need our money for America. [01:42:36] Speaker C: I see America like training day, like Denzel in training day, all that huff and puff and all this perspective to make him look like he was the big dog, the one that was in charge, running shit or whatnot. But he answered to somebody, right? [01:42:50] Speaker B: And the Russians didn't give a fuck about none of that. [01:42:52] Speaker C: None of that shit. You see what I'm saying? And that's what's going on now. We've been huffing and puffing and making this perspective like we're this top dog, but we've been answering to somebody for a long time, actually. [01:43:06] Speaker A: Again, if we've been answering to them, they're us. [01:43:09] Speaker C: No, they're not. No, they're not. [01:43:11] Speaker B: That doesn't make sense. [01:43:12] Speaker A: If we've been huffing and puffing like we're the big, tough dogs and we thought we were, and the only big tough dog. That's, I guess, ahead of us is them. [01:43:21] Speaker B: They. [01:43:22] Speaker A: Technically. [01:43:23] Speaker B: No. [01:43:24] Speaker A: We are their weapons. [01:43:25] Speaker C: That's like saying, no, we're their bitch. [01:43:26] Speaker B: Okay. That's like saying the puppet is the puppet master. Right. So the guy that has his hand up the puppet's ass, the puppet is him. [01:43:34] Speaker A: Okay. I guess you could say. I guess what I'm trying to say is once you remove America, they don't have the power that they seem to know about that they don't. We're the muscle. We're the muscle. We stabilize that region through them. Yeah. If we were to not back them, them arab countries are fucking Israel up. Yeah. That's why I said America is being tactical about this, because it's like, we could make a big deal about it. But you know what? That could fuck us up in the long. [01:43:59] Speaker B: So. So, really, it's like this, right? I was going to say we're the great white. Right. And they're that little thing that's underneath living. Right. But I think it's probably the other way around. I think they're the great white, and we're that little fish that swims underneath. [01:44:15] Speaker A: I think that the problem is they figure out how to get the one person that matters in the clutches. But if, as a country, we were to stop backing them, those arab countries would eat them alive. Yeah. So they need us, but it seems like they get something on a couple of key people on our side so that those people need them. And the whole country has to go with the people in charge because they're pushing the buttons. [01:44:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:44:42] Speaker A: That's got to be it. Because if we were to pull back, they're getting fucked up. [01:44:47] Speaker C: We create them anyway. [01:44:48] Speaker A: You did. [01:44:49] Speaker B: But it was so weird, though, because, again, like I'm saying, the shit that they block the signal and they just fucking this ship up. Shooting the fucking lifeboats and shit. Dropping napalm on, trying to get off. [01:44:59] Speaker A: The boat on lifeboats. They shooting the lifeboats. [01:45:01] Speaker B: Right. These are war crimes. Right. You can't do this. [01:45:05] Speaker A: They were blocking the distress calls. [01:45:07] Speaker B: Right. All of this shit that you said. [01:45:09] Speaker C: War crimes. [01:45:10] Speaker B: Yeah. And then they were hoping that there would be no survivors to tell a story. [01:45:17] Speaker A: Right. [01:45:18] Speaker B: But that didn't happen. Right. And torpedoed the motherfucker, and it still didn't sink. Right. And I can't even imagine what kind of that experience would be like. Right. You're in a ship that's got a hole in it, in the fucking ocean. [01:45:33] Speaker A: Just barely lasts for the night overnight. [01:45:37] Speaker B: Yeah. And you're fucking just like, gosh damn, what's going on? [01:45:41] Speaker C: Imagine going through all that and then don't tell nobody. [01:45:44] Speaker B: Yes, that's what I'm saying. So then you come back and you're like, listen, I know we're going to get some payback for this. I know somebody's going to have to pay, right, for this fucking. This blood on my fucking lip. [01:45:56] Speaker C: We're going to give you this purple heart, though. But you can't tell nobody, right, bro? [01:46:01] Speaker B: And again, so every year they celebrate, the survivors of this ship celebrates their anniversary. [01:46:07] Speaker C: When did they start celebrating this? When did it become public knowledge? [01:46:10] Speaker A: I don't know. [01:46:10] Speaker B: I don't know. Yeah. [01:46:11] Speaker A: I don't know. Yeah. [01:46:12] Speaker C: Because, honestly, I didn't know about it until y'all was talking about it. [01:46:15] Speaker B: Yeah, it was wild, man. And when I watched, like you said, you used to be in the Navy, and so that kind of resonates that way as well, being on a ship. You know what I mean? And, fuck, I can only imagine their accounts, right? What they're talking about is like, yo, and then what it was like, they were saying, oh, we didn't know. [01:46:37] Speaker A: No, they knew exactly. [01:46:38] Speaker B: No, no. [01:46:38] Speaker A: They said, well, you left a part of it out. Basically, we were just in the water and they were trying to do some sneaky shit. [01:46:43] Speaker B: Right? [01:46:44] Speaker A: And we ended up seeing what they were trying to do. I don't remember exactly what it was. [01:46:48] Speaker B: Well, they were invading Egypt and fucking Iran at the same time. [01:46:53] Speaker A: We just happened to hear it. [01:46:58] Speaker C: So that's like the cop gets shot on the side of the road, and the innocent people drive by and they got to go chase them down type. [01:47:04] Speaker A: Right? And so they were trying to shout out the Fargo. Yeah. Have you watched that show? The show is. [01:47:10] Speaker C: I'm watching the show. I'm about to start season four. That shit is dope. [01:47:13] Speaker A: Season five now, but that shit is dope. [01:47:16] Speaker B: I'm going to have to watch. [01:47:17] Speaker A: I don't watch bad stuff, so I'm not you. [01:47:21] Speaker B: Chris Rock's in it, right? Okay. [01:47:25] Speaker A: Yeah. John Hamm is in this one, and the girl from Ted Lasso. [01:47:29] Speaker C: There's big actors in every season, and it's different cast because it's a different story, but it's all, like, tied into the Fargo universe. [01:47:37] Speaker A: So. Did you know that it's comedy? Yes. That's OD. [01:47:40] Speaker C: And I think it's hilarious how in the beginning of the movie and the beginning of every episode, they talk about, this is a true story, and how the things that happened took place in this place, in this time. But none of it's true, right? None of it's true. [01:47:55] Speaker A: Right. [01:47:56] Speaker B: That's funny. What was it? Your honor, I need to watch second season. [01:48:04] Speaker A: Yeah, that came on network tv, right? [01:48:06] Speaker C: That came on Showtime. [01:48:07] Speaker B: Yeah, I think it's showtime. [01:48:11] Speaker A: So you liked, your honor? [01:48:12] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm in the second season. [01:48:13] Speaker A: It's pretty dope. It was. Okay. [01:48:15] Speaker B: Which season you watched both seasons? [01:48:17] Speaker A: I think so. [01:48:17] Speaker B: Okay. [01:48:19] Speaker A: Sure. I watched one. [01:48:20] Speaker B: I just started. When, again? He is in prison. That's how it starts. In season two. [01:48:26] Speaker A: He's in. Oh, yeah, yeah. Okay. Yeah, I saw it. Yeah, it's okay. [01:48:30] Speaker B: And he's trying to fucking kill himself. [01:48:31] Speaker C: Check out Fargo, though. Okay. [01:48:34] Speaker B: And it's funny because I'm like, y'all can't do Walter White like this to me. And it's funny because he said that he thinks of the middle. In the middle. [01:48:43] Speaker A: Is that what he's from? [01:48:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:48:44] Speaker C: He was the dad. [01:48:45] Speaker B: He was the dad and Malcolm in the middle. [01:48:46] Speaker A: I never watched that show. [01:48:47] Speaker C: That shit was hilarious, bro. [01:48:49] Speaker B: To me, he's always Walter White. [01:48:50] Speaker C: It was hard for me to take him serious in Breaking Bad. [01:48:53] Speaker A: No, but I thought Breaking Bad was good because there's an evolution. You saw how he got there, right? And it was a life changing event that made him like, man, fuck all this. He had that same forget the details shit and just, like, went with it. [01:49:04] Speaker B: It was an evolution. [01:49:05] Speaker C: It was an evolution. But he's a whole different guy at the end. [01:49:11] Speaker B: He's into it. He lead all the way into it, right? And it's like, goddamn. You went from this corny ass motherfucker that started this to this dude right here, right now, making moves like this. I thought that was fucking dope. Better call Saul. [01:49:27] Speaker A: Yeah. I watched the first season completely. And I think I started the second season. Something happened. I got distracted. But I know it's over now, so I'm probably going to start over from season one. [01:49:36] Speaker B: I like it, too, because, again, it's kind of like a prequill to Breaking Bad. [01:49:41] Speaker A: And it's very subtle. Yeah. Nothing is ever super exciting until it happens. And it's real quick and it happens and that goes away. [01:49:51] Speaker B: Right. [01:49:52] Speaker A: But it's never action packed. [01:49:54] Speaker B: Right. How he gets slipped down the slide. [01:49:59] Speaker A: Right. [01:49:59] Speaker B: Like, to be in the motherfucker that he is in Breaking Bad is the fucking attorney for the fucking kingpin drug guys and all of that shit. He just was a guy that was just trying to work out of a fucking strip mall. And next thing you know, you pick up the wrong clientele I love when. [01:50:17] Speaker C: They do that stuff. Like, with X, too. And they did Pearl afterwards. And Pearl is the prequel to how she became the killer. [01:50:23] Speaker A: What are you talking about? [01:50:24] Speaker B: I don't know. [01:50:24] Speaker C: Well, there's a movie called X that came out last year. Mia Goth was the main actress in it, but basically. [01:50:31] Speaker A: Does anybody know what the fuck you talking about? [01:50:33] Speaker C: Probably not. It was a pretty big movie, though. It was called X, but people actually don't even. [01:50:38] Speaker B: Is it Malcolm? [01:50:39] Speaker C: No, it's just called X. [01:50:40] Speaker B: Okay. [01:50:41] Speaker C: But the next one that came after it was the really more popular one that everybody knows about Pearl. [01:50:46] Speaker A: Yeah, everybody. [01:50:52] Speaker C: I guess 25% of the room. [01:50:53] Speaker A: Is this american cinema? Are we talking about american movies? [01:50:56] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [01:50:57] Speaker A: What? I have no idea what you're talking about. Who's a star? Mia Goth. I don't even know the fuck that is. You all know Mia Goth is. [01:51:04] Speaker C: Look, I guess nobody knows what it is. He don't know what it is. [01:51:06] Speaker B: Yeah. Again, what else was she? [01:51:10] Speaker C: I don't know anything, really. [01:51:11] Speaker A: Is this a real. [01:51:13] Speaker B: The girl with the dragon tattoo? [01:51:14] Speaker C: No, she had a phone. That's new me. [01:51:20] Speaker A: Rafa. [01:51:22] Speaker C: She's in something else, too. Newer. That looks dope, though. [01:51:25] Speaker B: Yeah, that's a good one. [01:51:27] Speaker C: No, but X was dope, though. But anyways, the killer in that movie, they made a prequel of it called Pearl, and they showed how she became crazy. [01:51:33] Speaker A: Oh, okay. I never heard either of those. Maybe it's worth checking out. [01:51:36] Speaker C: I was being told Pearl was way better than that. [01:51:38] Speaker A: I'm being told there's a new anime that's pretty good where there's, like, this samurai girl. She's really a girl, but she has to pretend like she's a boy. [01:51:45] Speaker B: I watched it. [01:51:46] Speaker C: Is that the one you were talking? [01:51:47] Speaker A: Is it good? [01:51:48] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:51:48] Speaker A: You liked it a lot? [01:51:49] Speaker B: I liked it, yeah. [01:51:49] Speaker A: A lot of people are into this, so I'm not going to watch it. [01:51:51] Speaker B: But, yeah, no, it's dope. [01:51:53] Speaker A: It is what it is. What's the name of it? Never mind. [01:51:56] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't know. Right off the bat. No, it's like something. [01:51:59] Speaker C: You said it was a blue eyed samurai. [01:52:01] Speaker A: Samurai. Okay. Yeah, there it is. [01:52:03] Speaker B: Did your wife watch it? [01:52:04] Speaker A: No, but I've heard twice now, just being somewhere and somebody starts talking, and that's what they're talking about. So I'm like, okay, two people, random situations, and they're both like, oh, my God, this show. But, you know, I'm not an anime guy. [01:52:14] Speaker B: And this is how I know. I think it's pretty good, is because I prefer my anime in Japanese. This is in English. And I still thought I heard. [01:52:23] Speaker A: It's like Dixon put all kind of shit. [01:52:24] Speaker B: Oh, dude. I told him that. [01:52:26] Speaker C: That's what he was telling. [01:52:26] Speaker B: I told him. I was like, they get it in. [01:52:29] Speaker C: But see, that's like Anime back in the 90s, though, because they used to get down like that. [01:52:33] Speaker B: There's full frontals. There's full dick shit. I mean, she's a part of a concubine at one point. I think it's Netflix. Yeah, I think it's on Netflix. [01:52:44] Speaker C: In the. Used to get down like that. One of my favorite movies was ninja scroll and the one girl with the poison pussy, and she was killing niggas and shit. The demon dude, he grabbed her and he was raping her and shit. And she didn't do shit. And he was, like, wondering why she wasn't, like, hesitate. And the next thing you know, he's. And he just start dying and shit. And come to find out, yeah, she poisons them. [01:53:07] Speaker A: She can turn it on and off, though, right? [01:53:09] Speaker C: No. [01:53:09] Speaker A: So her pussy is always. [01:53:10] Speaker C: Her bodily fluids are poisonous, so she can never. [01:53:13] Speaker A: Oh, damn. [01:53:14] Speaker B: I think that all women should have that ability, though. Like, you said, to turn it on. [01:53:17] Speaker A: Now I'll be like, what that mouth do? [01:53:20] Speaker B: So if you are getting attacked, you could just switch the valve and get that nigga. The cyanide pussy. [01:53:28] Speaker C: So you want her to have that same ability when she just all of a sudden decides she don't like your ass no more? Or you didn't did her wrong? [01:53:34] Speaker A: Oh, no. When you know, you did. [01:53:37] Speaker B: Like he said. Well, I forget. He said perspectives? No, her daddy? No Creole. So daddy, no voodoo or some shit. So I don't fuck with her. Like, yeah, like, you know, you just got to tread differently if you know that. It's almost like the Philippines we were talking about. If you know that there's this possibility, you don't cross them. You don't do her dirty like that. [01:53:56] Speaker C: So Jay Mack is the Highlander. He knows all of. Yeah, he knows exactly which ones ain't crazy and all that shit, I guess. [01:54:05] Speaker A: Wow. Okay, before we get out of here, when was the last time you told somebody, money doesn't grow on trees, and our French doesn't have kids, so he probably has never said this. [01:54:15] Speaker C: Okay, I was about to say the kids count because I probably said that shit, like, an hour ago. [01:54:19] Speaker B: Yeah, it's been a while. [01:54:22] Speaker A: So doesn't money grow on trees, though? [01:54:24] Speaker C: It is a tree. They actually have money trees, but that's. [01:54:27] Speaker A: The physical part, but even figuratively. Doesn't money grow on trees? [01:54:32] Speaker B: Yeah, every crop is a money producer, right? [01:54:37] Speaker A: No, I mean along the lines of, like, there's never a time unless you're a trust fund baby. There's never a time where you don't have to plant something to get money. You always got to plant it. You know what I'm saying? You got to plant your seeds that. Whether that be working at a job or whatever it is that you're doing, investing in the stock market, it kind of does grow on trees. [01:54:56] Speaker C: Even if you are a trust fund baby. Somebody did it for you. [01:54:59] Speaker B: Somebody planted that fucking crop. [01:55:01] Speaker C: Somebody planted that, yeah. [01:55:02] Speaker A: And amazingly enough, I'm starting to see more. The things that I've planted start coming. Growing into trees and starting to get money. When you say grow, they call that compound interest. I just want to call it. I think we've been doing this shit wrong, and I think that somebody along the way wanted us to do it wrong. And we're still living in these crazy cycles where those kind of things like that's something that's ingrained in us. Money doesn't grow on trees. How many times have you heard that? [01:55:35] Speaker C: Well, we've never been taught the secrets of residual income. [01:55:38] Speaker B: Thousands. Or really how to be an astute farmer or planter or. You know what I mean, or whatever, to have your own trees. Right? Again, you don't even know where you would even start to plant a crop, right. Or anything of that nature. So you're just used to just going. [01:55:59] Speaker C: And we're taught to plant other people's trees, right. [01:56:01] Speaker B: Or eat their fruit. Right. Eat the results of someone else's tree. Right. And that's good enough because as long as I got something to eat, I'm good. But really, you need your own trees. [01:56:13] Speaker A: But I say that just to amplify the idea that money absolutely does grow on trees, even if it's not a real tree. [01:56:20] Speaker B: Right. [01:56:20] Speaker A: It's the figurative tree. Like, you're going to have to plant something if you want something. [01:56:25] Speaker B: Yes, for sure. [01:56:25] Speaker A: I was sitting in this presentation. They tricked us again, got us into this presentation for not a timeshare, but like something else. And it's how we heard about this water park. We didn't know about it, but they said, yeah, their tickets are normally $184 a person. We'll give them to you for $50 each if you just come sit in this little presentation. [01:56:42] Speaker B: Damn. [01:56:43] Speaker C: They still charged you for them. [01:56:44] Speaker B: Yeah, but that's still a discount though, right? [01:56:47] Speaker C: But normally when I've gone to them types of things, they just are giving you whatever they've not like, but charging. [01:56:52] Speaker B: You for, usually that's just like a tour around. Alligator tour or something in Vegas, like a show or something like that. I actually did get a little cool crystal thing. [01:57:02] Speaker C: Well, I guess you got to pay the taxes on it, though. Like when they give you the five nights or whatever, you got to pay the taxes on that. [01:57:08] Speaker B: Yeah, you do have to pay the taxes on a cruise ship or something like that. [01:57:11] Speaker A: Anyway, so they hit us with a crazy number. It was like $300,000 for over 30 years, and you have to pay it in four years. Some crazy shit. But the idea that popped in my head during this presentation was, they're going to give me $300. I have to give them $300,000, and then they give us the ability to have a discount on their room. Rooms when we come there. So you don't even get the rooms free? No, you pay $300,000 for the discount. Right. And so in my mind, I'm saying to this guy, like, honestly, do you really think that I'm going to pay you $300,000 to save money when I can just take $300,000 and go out here in playa and buy some land and it can make me money? [01:57:47] Speaker B: Right? [01:57:47] Speaker A: But the idea came in my head is like, well, wait a minute, money does grow on trees, because I could definitely just pay them $300,000 and keep save money. But they're like, well, you're going to take these vacations anyway. You might as well spend this to get a discount. It's saving you money. Yeah, that makes sense. [01:58:01] Speaker C: Most people ain't going to take that many to that place to make that saving. [01:58:05] Speaker A: It makes sense. But even if I did it every year to the t and I got all my value out of it, they're still only allowing me to save money, right? I haven't planted anything. Right? But if I take that same $300,000 and just take it out anywhere in the city and buy some land and put a house on it, or whatever it is, then that gives the ability, even if it. Maybe it doesn't, but potentially you have the money, the ability to grow money there, and it does grow on trees, but it just requires you knowing the difference between doing something that's going to save you money and something that's going to make you money. [01:58:34] Speaker B: And it's funny, because when I was in Tennessee for that training, one of the dudes that I was talking to, a white guy, he had just came down and bought ten acres. But it was all trees, right? So him and his wife and kid are living out of a fifth will right now. So what they're doing is they're clearing the land, but then they're taking that wood and they're reselling it. So it's kind of like you're saying there's trees already here, right? And that was definitely money. And that money is what's going to pay of the house that he's going to build, right? So he's like, yeah, we have to pay to get it cleared. But once we get it cleared, we're selling it to the mill, and the mill is paying us this much, and that's going to take care of the house and the foundation and all of that shit automatically. And I was like, I get that again. Because, again, that wood is valuable. That tree is money in essence. It's been planted and that shit converted. We use wood for everything a lot of times. I know I paid back when I owned the house, I was paying for mufflers to come chop down trees and just take it, right? And then they were taking them trees and making more money after they charged me to chop it down. And I was like, damn, I should have been like, well, where's this going? I mean, I don't know what you could do. I don't know the actual mechanics of it, if that's even possible. But I know I could have maybe got a discount because I know you're going to get something on the back end with my wood, but at the same time, I don't want you to leave it. So again, it's fucked up. It's like, what do I do with it? [02:00:14] Speaker A: I'm no longer interested in discounts and saving money, though. Yeah, if it can't make money, there's no point. Discounts and say, okay, you save me 20%, or that's not interesting to me. [02:00:25] Speaker B: No more. [02:00:25] Speaker A: Yeah, I need something that I can look at and say, well, maybe this does make me money. Maybe it doesn't, but at least I have the potential. Yeah, I can leave with more than I came with the saving thing. That's cool. But that's not really. I think we've been taught. I mean, I remember my wife used to spend her last dollar because there'd be a sales and it's like, well, I got this for on sale and it was on sale and I saved this much money. But if you didn't buy anything, you would have kept all the money. [02:00:51] Speaker C: Right? [02:00:52] Speaker B: I remember you telling me that shit. And it's funny because I used to do that for the buy one get one. Right, or the two for whatever. But I realized now out here, that in certain stores, if it's whatever, they're going to give you the individual price for one anyway, so if it's like three. [02:01:07] Speaker A: No, not always. [02:01:08] Speaker B: I know. Not always. But I think Kroger does that. I think Kroger is one of those places that even if it's like three for five, if you just get one and you're only going to pay. [02:01:17] Speaker A: Well, how many did you want? That's my thing. Yeah, I wanted one. [02:01:19] Speaker C: Right? [02:01:20] Speaker A: Now I see that if you buy two, you get one free. So that means I got to buy another one. And then I get one free. I'm thinking to myself, well, who loses? Me? Because I spent more than I wanted to spend when I came here. I was going to buy one. Yeah, I ended up buying two. Yeah, I got one free. So over the long run, yeah, I've saved some money, but did I really? Because they're just giving me some shit that they arbitrarily put a price on anyway, right. So anyway, nonetheless, I say that. Just say, be mindful of the things that you're planning, because that's your future. Anything else, guys? [02:01:52] Speaker B: No? Happy New Year. So I'm sure that this will be out before the new year. So everybody be safe out there. [02:01:57] Speaker A: Coming out right now. [02:01:58] Speaker B: Yeah, I know. Before the new year, everybody be safe out there. All our listeners, don't be party responsibly, celebrate responsibly. And you know what? It's weird, because I can't wait for 2023 to be over. Right? Really? [02:02:14] Speaker A: Same. [02:02:16] Speaker B: But at the same time, at 2023 has almost got me like Israel had Johnson. I'm a little scared. I don't know. I'm afraid, what if 2024, because I remember we were like, oh, 2020, right? Like, oh, that's some bad shit. In 2020. Weather wasn't the bad shit to me, but 2023 wasn't it for me. [02:02:35] Speaker A: You scared? Leave the world behind. [02:02:37] Speaker B: 2024? I'm like, what if? Because you always be like, okay, can't be worse. Yeah, it could be. [02:02:45] Speaker C: It can always be worse. [02:02:46] Speaker B: It always can be, right? So I don't want it to be. I'm just looking forward to 2024. I'm looking for good things, man. And I hope everybody else does as well in 2024. [02:02:55] Speaker C: I'm with that. Honestly, this shot we got sitting here, I say, let's take it to 2024. [02:02:59] Speaker B: Let's do it. [02:03:02] Speaker A: Hi, guys. Keep supporting us, keep interacting with us, and we'll keep bringing the nonsense because we realize that sometimes people just need to laugh. Till next time. [02:03:10] Speaker B: 10% less bullshit than any other podcast, guaranteed.
