Episode Overview

This episode dives into the aftermath of Zoran Mamdani’s historic mayoral win in New York City, the ripple effects on NYC’s cultural and political landscape, and speculation on Donald Trump's potential new strategies (“Trump’s New War”). The Flagrant crew—Andrew Schulz, Akaash Singh, AlexxMedia (Al), Mark Gagnon, and Miles—deliver their trademark irreverence, unpacking the significance of New York’s “Muslim Makeover,” left vs. right culture wars, and the migration of generational, racial, and immigrant identities in the city. The show also detours into pop-culture, social identity debates, museum heists, and comedic hot takes on global politics.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Flagrant's (Satirical) "Political Power"

• The hosts open by jokingly claiming credit for “getting dictators and communists elected” through their podcast influence, referencing previous guests like Andrew Yang (00:00–00:57).
  • Quote:

    "We getting dictators elected. We getting communists elected. Whoever the fuck we want." – Andrew Schulz (00:00)

• They playfully switch blame and credit between political factions for outcomes, highlighting the absurdity of online scapegoating.
  • Quote:

    "If we got all the credit for getting Trump elected, you better keep that same energy." – Schulz (00:39)

2. Zoran Mamdani’s Win: NYC's Identity Shift & "Muslim Makeover"

• The group riffs on the election of Zoran Mamdani as NYC’s mayor—a brown, African, Muslim immigrant—and the symbolic impact for New Yorkers.
• Major satire of the political climate: free buses, rent, food, “prostitutes”—all jokes about left-leaning policies (02:44).
• Akaash highlights support for “everyone brown,” but jokes about “brown points” deductions for marrying white (03:24–03:56).
  • Quote:

    "Do you lose brown points if you got a white wife?" – Akaash (03:43)
    "Yeah, 100%." – Schulz (03:47)

• They discuss the performative/rebellious aspect of progressive politics and immigrant voting blocs (27:54–29:20).

3. Satire & Identity: Sharia Law, Taxes & Cultural Anxiety

• Ongoing bits about the imposition of Sharia Law, hijab mandates, and religious jizya taxes in NYC, poking fun at right-wing panic over “Islamification” (05:03–06:56).
  • Quote:

    "We need religious police if we have sharia law… You gotta pay the jizya, too." – Schulz (05:09)

  • Dive into misconceptions about Islamic taxes versus charity, arguing 2.5% is a “sweet deal” (05:48–06:18).
• Taqiyah is lampooned as a “Muslim sneak-in” policy (07:10–07:23).

4. Political Culture: Power, Irreverence, and Comedy

• Schulz and Akaash argue NYC mayor is the "only other real government position" besides President (09:01–09:51), mocking lesser officials as "feckless."
• They riff on both the burden and fun of “having so much power as a podcast”—and satirically “swear off” interfering with elections (09:55–22:04).
  • Quote:

    "With great power comes great responsibility. Put the rice in the microwave." – Schulz (10:18)

5. Can Mamdani Deliver? Practical Doubts vs. Symbolic Victories

• Pragmatic questions about what Mayor Mamdani can actually achieve (e.g. taxes, free buses, grocery competition)—and skepticism about how much these impact voters' real lives (22:15–28:30).
  • Quote:

    "I don't think being able to take the bus for free is going to change their life." – Schulz (27:15)

• Discusses the symbolic value for progressives: “Who’s going to piss off Trump the most?” (28:42–29:20).

6. Voting Demographics: Who Actually Wanted Change?

• Detailed breakdown of voting stats: recent NYC arrivals overwhelmingly voted for Zoran, while long-time and native New Yorkers leaned more conservative or for the familiar Cuomo (35:01–38:06).
  • Quote:

    "If you're here less than five years, you voted for Zora… There's no cost to this not working out to you, because you'll go home." – Schulz (35:31)

• Clashes over what makes someone a “real New Yorker”—longevity, roots, or cultural identity (34:11–37:56).

7. Trump's Next Moves: Collaboration or Combat?

• Deep speculation on Trump’s possible response as president, with both strategic and egocentric possibilities raised:
  • Should Trump “go to war” with NYC or prove he “gave a fair shot” by not interfering? (23:40–25:00)
  • Consensus: Trump won’t be able to resist making Mamdani his “boogeyman” (24:53, 25:03).
• Comparison of the left’s reaction to Trump winning in 2016 with the right’s response to Mamdani (25:04–26:07).

8. Museum Heists, Stolen Jewels, and Cultural Ownership

• Entertaining segment about the Louvre jewelry heist by a gang of “hot North Africans” (52:01–54:04), segueing into a philosophical debate about whether looted artifacts should be returned to their original countries.
• Parallels drawn with the Mona Lisa’s history—how theft elevated its fame (59:47–60:16).
  • Quote:

    "Robin Museums is kind of fire... It's guilt free because y'all stole that shit." – Schulz (59:20)

• The group generally roots for “Robin Hood” crimes against European museums.

9. Artifacts, Colonialism, and Who Really Cares

• Intense discussion: should Western nations return artifacts if the original countries didn’t value them at the time? Do Westerners retroactively confer value? (64:23–66:41)
• The 'Kohinoor' diamond controversy prompts jokes about Indian vs. British cultural theft and restitution (67:17–69:05).

10. Wild Tangents: James Bond’s Car Choices & Product Placement

• Comedic debate about whether James Bond would (or could) ever drive a Toyota, jumping off British identity and marketing in movies (70:30–74:51).

11. Viral Whitney Houston Challenge

• The group takes on the “Whitney Houston Drum Challenge” in studio, with comically disastrous results (77:13–80:33).

You gotta pay like 2.5%. Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait, wait. Hear me out, my boy. Just hear me out.

[C]

There's a little coincidence.

[A]

Just hear me out, my boy. Just hear me out, my boy. Muzzies. They got to give 10% of their wealth to charity or whatever. Okay?

[D]

Charity, okay.

[A]

But they don't have to pay that jizzy of 2.5. You don't have to give 10% of your wealth to charity.

[D]

Oh.

[A]

You pay 2.5 and you don't even gotta fight in the wars. You get to live in the Muzi country.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

2.5% tax rate, light work, and you don't even gotta defend yourself. They're gonna defend you.

[C]

That's awesome.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And you get to yell at your wife. Everyone wins.

[A]

This is why I think that the other religions don't last in Muslim countries' cause they're jealous.

[B]

Oh, they just switch up.

[A]

So these motherfuckers don't gotta die. They only gotta pay the jizya. So we're coughing up 10%. These Muslim countries, like, we need shit to be More affordable. It's Zoran's. Zoran's policies. Isn't that crazy?

[C]

Is Jizya taxes 2%. How much Zoron taxing millionaires 2%.

[A]

He just hit us with the jizya. Sonny hit us with the jizya. He hit us with the jizzy. It's happening. It's getting us the Taquiya. This is the first step to Taquiya.

[B]

Yeah, the Taquiya is fired.

[A]

I just had some taquillas at seven.

[D]

What's the key? What's that?

[A]

Taqiyah, man.

[D]

What's that?

[A]

That's how the Muslims sneak in Islam with an openly Muslim cop. They sneaking it in.

[D]

They're allowed to lie in order to convert people or some shit like that.

[B]

To save their lives.

[C]

Why would you say that about Muslims, dog? What a crazy thing to say about Muslims.

[A]

You're a cannibal, dude. You're a cannibal. That's the opposite. You're a cannibal. You're a cannibal. You're a fucking cannibal.

[D]

No, that's true.

[A]

Makami.

[B]

No, no, no, no.

[D]

I'm a commie.

[A]

Nah, bro.

[D]

I'm on board, man. Enjoy the team, guys.

[B]

Yeah, I was way too happy about Zone, bro.

[A]

You're right. You're happy.

[C]

Hey, you've seen the wtf. Time change policy, Refund policy this capitalist as it gets, boy. Getting your money back from wtf.

[A]

Wait, what's the. What's the time change? I don't. I don't know.

[C]

What is it? You try to change your time. Hey, can I record an hour later? Yeah, I just got to charge you for that hour. What happens?

[A]

[D]

Yeah, whenever Indians book.

[A]

So there is a little bit of a lateness issue at the studio.

[C]

Yes.

[D]

From certain clients.

[A]

From certain clients.

[C]

Oh really? You putting that all on us?

[A]

Certain class. You're putting that all on of the.

[D]

Zoron descent, Uganda.

[C]

African American. That's what you're talking about when you talk about Zoron?

[D]

That made nothing too.

[A]

All right, so do you think people stop pretending to give a fuck about New York now? Is this the new Riyadh comedy festival where like everybody's talking about it and now two weeks from now nobody will care who the mayor of New York is? Or do you think that they're just going to go non stop?

[C]

They're Going to go nonstop, every bad thing as it happens. It's just the same thing that it's so funny watching them complain. Just like the left complain about Trump.

[A]

I actually, I think I was telling you all this. I like, we need. You can't just have one party in power. Yeah, you need. Because, like, when it was only Republicans in power, it's like the Dems can be so whiny because they're not responsible for anything. They just get to point the finger and whine.

[D]

Yes.

[A]

When at least, like the Dems run Congress and nothing happens. They point the finger at the President, but then they're also responsible for nothing happening. So the fingers. You want to leave a game of whining. Exactly right. Because they're all full of shit. But when you have no power at all, you just get the point of finger. So it's nice that there is, like super lefty that is running New York, which is really just the only other real position of government. There's president and there's mayor of New York. If you are in government in any other capacity, you are a feckless.

[B]

You can say that now. You can say that.

[A]

Your position means nothing.

[B]

And you need a podcast to get both of them elected. Low key. Honestly, you need both.

[A]

I hate how powerful we are.

[C]

It's a burden.

[A]

It's a burden.

[C]

I hate it.

[A]

I hate how important we are. Yeah, I'm really hating.

[B]

But it's a responsibility we have to take on, bro. We have to put balance in the universe, son.

[A]

What did Uncle Ben say?

[C]

With great power comes great responsibility.

[A]

Put the rice in the microwave. 90 seconds. What the fuck? Yo. Two or three minutes. Cut it off. Uncle Ben's man.

[B]

Can we get Uncle Ben back? How do we get him back?

[A]

Which Uncle Ben?

[B]

The black one. They took him off the rice.

[C]

Nice zoron, bro. He's coming. He could be coming wearing one of them. What do you call that? What's Miles wearing?

[A]

Miles has on racist garb. We were telling him before the pod. We're like, yo, whatever. Don't wear that. The muzzies are gonna be upset.

[B]

Yes.

[E]

You guys, I had a full. I had the burqa. You guys had to talk me.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[E]

No.

[A]

Miles was like, listen, they have sense of humor. They've come to the west so they can embrace Western values. And they would never get upset at us making fun of their garbage. They understand the place that they came to for salvation.

[C]

And then what did we say?

[A]

And we were like.

[D]

Nah, Ben.

[A]

Miles was like, nah, they gotta go home.

[D]

Then go home.

[A]

If you can't take these jokes, you gotta go home.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

And then we'll get paid crazy amounts of money to go there.

[B]

See, that's a good point. If they all come here, then where are we gonna go?

[A]

That's a great point that you're making. Click your heels twice for that.

[B]

Yeah. Thank you.

[A]

Okay, this is what's happening in Zoe's world.

[B]

Put Miles in a burka right now. Dude, if only we had one in the studio.

[A]

Dude, if we had a fucking burqa, we could just put Miles in that shit.

[B]

Is that offensive?

[A]

No. Fuck is offensive about a little burqa?

[B]

I don't know.

[A]

I think we should. I think we should throw you in a little burkini and let your nipples pop out. I want to see some hard nips in that little burkini.

[B]

I don't like that.

[A]

He's trying to be cute with the kufi.

[D]

Sorry.

[C]

Hey, hey.

[A]

Put your hair up.

[C]

I don't think you're allowed to have your hair up.

[B]

Thank you, bro.

[C]

There you go.

[A]

There it is.

[C]

That'd be like Chia.

[E]

That's a deep cut.

[B]

What?

[D]

That's Dragon Ball Z, right?

[A]

Does he look like that?

[B]

Yeah, he does.

[E]

He really does.

[A]

Pull it up.

[B]

Pull it up. In three to five hours.

[A]

Amazon pr. There you go, Joey. Joey did it. There you go, Joey. That should look racist in reverse.

[B]

Do a white face, right?

[A]

Doesn't it look like a bro?

[E]

Don't pull up. Don't pull up. Mr. Popo.

[D]

Oh, yeah, Mr. Popo.

[A]

Crazy.

[E]

Crazy.

[A]

Yeah, that's a little bit crazy.

[C]

How does Chowu die?

[E]

I think he blows himself up.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

I legitimately think he.

[E]

His superpower is that he blows himself up.

[C]

He does.

[A]

I'm almost certain that's, like, most powerful. There's no way he does his superpowers. He blows himself up.

[B]

That is a superpower, though.

[C]

Al, why you dress like me? What's going on here?

[A]

Damn.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

Wow.

[C]

I thought that would be racist for both of us.

[A]

You thought it was real?

[C]

That's what you're racist. You thought that's really how I dress?

[A]

Nah, nah. You're not wiggling out of this one, bro. I wiggle.

[C]

I flipped it.

[D]

And you wish it was that skinny.

[A]

See how much more fun it is when the Dems have some power and shit is naughty again? We need shit to be naughty. You don't realize how valuable the Dems are. They make shit naughty. And being naughty is fun. Republicans want nothing to be naughty. That's boring.

[C]

No, no, no, because in the 80s, that's why all these comics were like anti religious. Because the Republicans back then hated any religion talk.

[E]

True.

[C]

So that was how you would be naughty as a comic in the 80s.

[A]

Damn, bro, you're right about that. No, no, no, you are right about that. That is crazy. What was so crazy about it then? I cinched it. I saved a little for later.

[B]

Turned into an F sharp.

[A]

I was 42 years old.

[B]

Made it an F. Super.

[A]

Yeah. I just did a reverse. What was the guy name? I just didn't choose Sui. I just choose. There's nothing you could do about it. You got pink eye. That's why your eyes right now. I threw pink eye in your left eye. Right.

[C]

I've known him so long I didn't even flinch. I wouldn't even react.

[A]

He knows cuz it was going to.

[B]

Be no sound and he had to make it go higher.

[A]

We're Muslims now. That right there is okay. That's a sign of gratitude.

[D]

Really.

[A]

That is halal. That right there was halal.

[B]

It smells like halal. That was wild.

[A]

All right. That was up Mark. I don't like. I don't like that. I don't like. You try to say they smell, bro.

[B]

No.

[A]

You were eating and literally washed their hands and feet five times a day.

[B]

And a bidet. And they got those.

[A]

And they got the bidet. How could they smell?

[B]

I agree. Cleanest browns probably, but a little bit of white sauce goes a long way.

[A]

Oh my God. How about that? Put that in your caffeine and smoke it. Okay, why don't you take that? Okay, why don't you take that? This is New York. New York is back. New York is back on.

[C]

I love it.

[A]

As much as you didn't want it. As much as you didn't want it. You want to be the only brown guy selling out shows everywhere.

[C]

No, you're right. I. I was.

[A]

But no. There's going to be more than one brown here, bro. Amit, it's more than one brown in this town.

[B]

Z's moving tickets, dude.

[A]

Peace. Charlamagne is so funny. He's like. Cuz Charlamagne calls out and it's just the most hilarious. He's like, yo, when anybody, when everybody is, when someone is likable, whatever they do is like, it's just the most fly. And he's like, yo, if Kamala. The night before the election was like at a gay bar in Brooklyn. People like, what the fuck is this doing out there on the road if Cuomo's had some like late night party? But when Zoe does it, it's the flyest shit ever.

[C]

He hits everybody. He gets you with the rap shit. He goes to the gay club. He just in touch. He's likable because that's part of what makes him likable. He's in touch with every, like, little group.

[A]

Yes, he ran a fantastic campaign. I'm just saying, when you do whatever you do is the hot shit.

[C]

Yeah, yeah.

[B]

Being young goes a long way too, though. Remember when Hillary went to the bar and she was, like, pouring up beers and shit, and everyone's like, what the.

[C]

Fuck are you doing?

[B]

She tried to make a Pokemon go.

[A]

To the tits out and slap them together. Science experiment.

[B]

Exactly. That would go a long way.

[A]

That's what we want to see.

[B]

That would go far.

[A]

We want to see a little CLC world with your tits. Is it that hard to ask? You've been Secretary of State, but I haven't seen your tits slapped together like a Seal sequel. Okay, you're running The Clinton Foundation. $50 million a year in donations. But I haven't seen. Okay. Is it that much to ask as an American, as a citizen of the United States of America, someone who was born here, I gotta look at your tits in a pantsuit. Not slapping pants, farts, crying.

[B]

He sounds like he's crying right now.

[A]

How do we even call this a country anym. How do we even call the country? Who would call the country? Of course we don't got no borders. Of course there's no fucking borders. I put her right on the wall myself. Like Humpty Dumpity just sitting on that wall. You know what she would be doing? What would she be doing?

[E]

I'll do it.

[A]

What would she be doing, Al? How would she be telling the Mexicans go the back? Why would she be doing that disgusting act? That was id. Why the hell was she doing that? If she was out there doing that, there'd be a line of 40 million Mexicans thinking it was an horchata parade.

[B]

That's haram, bro. That's haram.

[A]

America is finally back.

[C]

Yeah, it really is, dude.

[A]

It feels back. Vibes are up. It was. We. We got too much. Right? And there wasn't enough fun. You need like, the. The hall monitors. Yeah, that's the Dems of the hall monitors. And it's no much, no fun in the hallway without a mon. Somewhere. So we need them to have a little power. And, you know, being mayor of New York is the only other position of government that matters.

[C]

What is everybody else? What you call them?

[A]

Feckless.

[B]

Per.

[A]

People.

[B]

Yeah, I remember that.

[A]

Feckless people.

[C]

People.

[A]

But do they.

[C]

Do.

[A]

Does Ted Cruz do anything goes.

[B]

It goes To Mexico. Goes on vacations. Takes a nice little vacation every now and again.

[C]

Him?

[B]

No, he doesn't do much. What about Gavin Newsome?

[C]

Nothing.

[A]

What does Gavin Newsome want?

[D]

Sponsors.

[C]

Being president.

[A]

Yeah. Does he ask him for sponsors?

[B]

I mean, he's running a pod. He probably wants.

[C]

Nobody elect.

[B]

Wants abuse.

[C]

So you know what's crazy?

[D]

Maybe a little blue chew.

[C]

Yo, the governor of California does a podcast. We got more political power than him. Ain't that crazy?

[A]

It is crazy.

[C]

I mean, look at us, dude, right?

[A]

It is crazy. I don't like the amount of power.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

I wake up in the morning and I feel uncomfortable.

[C]

That's one thing I know about Schultz. He don't like.

[A]

I don't like it. I don't wanna. I don't wanna put my sword on someone's shoulders and then ignite them immediately.

[C]

Yeah, I know, I know.

[A]

Do you want to do that?

[C]

No, I don't. Oh, God.

[A]

I don't want to do that.

[B]

What do we do? How do we get rid of this?

[A]

I think we have to relinquish it.

[B]

Oh, okay.

[A]

From this day forth.

[D]

All right.

[A]

I think we have to say way we're not getting any more people elected.

[C]

I think that's a great stance.

[A]

No, stamped.

[C]

That's the stamp. That means this decision is final.

[A]

That's the gavel now. I'm just kidding. We gonna up elections forever. Yes, up elections. As long as there's elections.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

What do you guys think will actually happen, though?

[D]

In all seriousness?

[C]

Nothing really. I pay a little bit more in taxes. You pay a little bit more in taxes. Maybe we get free buses.

[A]

Do you think he'll even be able to raise the taxes? I don't know.

[C]

But, dude, 1% is not, like, what do we. Or 2%, it's, what, $40,000 for every million you make? That's a chance that's worth taking to not be the exact same.

[D]

There you go.

[C]

You know what I mean?

[B]

Al's corporate in Puerto Rico, bro. He's not. Al's not tripping off any.

[D]

It's a little bit away from there.

[E]

Florida.

[A]

But, you know, I just gotta check on. Go check on Alex, man.

[D]

Headquarters in Florida, bro.

[A]

Go check on Alex. Don't do that. No. Like, what do you think he'll be able to do? I think that's the big question. And we asked him that on the pod. But, like, what do you think he'll be able to. To actually get done? And what will.

[C]

If he can cut government waste. Waste, I'm happy. If he can get Some of these consultants out of there, which he might have the power to do. How much do you say it costs to design those trash cans? Which, by the way, they look pretty good, but he said it was like 20 million or something just to design it. You save us that 20 million, I'm good.

[A]

I'm happy.

[E]

Yeah.

[B]

I think Trump goes to war with them, so I think national government, the.

[C]

White House up, Doug.

[B]

We might need to storm it, dude.

[A]

All right, so here's the question. Question. Don't you think that it would be smarter for Trump for him to not go to war at all?

[C]

Yep.

[A]

Like, I think that Trump should just, like, keep giving whatever funding he's already given, because if he doesn't go to war at all, if he goes to war, then he's created a boogeyman for Mamdani supporters.

[C]

Yep.

[A]

So if Mum couldn't get anything done.

[C]

Trump got in the way.

[A]

Exactly. If Trump doesn't get in the way at all and things don't go well, well, then Trump just goes to go, hey, I gave you a fair shot. They didn't go well. Like, will you change your policies? Like, don't put your ego in this at all. Like, if you actually care about the people, why don't you do something that will help them? That's not working out.

[B]

That's not Trump, though.

[A]

Oh, I know, I know. I'm just saying, like, the thing that would be the most beneficial. And then if things actually work out for New York City, Trump just gets to go. I love New York and it's an important city, and I wanted the people of New York to have the best chance again. I didn't want politics to get in the way. I hate how politicians get in the way.

[B]

That would be fire.

[A]

You know, you could win.

[C]

Win.

[A]

If you're Trump in this situation, that's zero chance.

[D]

It happens.

[A]

I think I put a bet that doesn't. Yeah, come on.

[D]

Trump, he wants all the credit for everything. And you know he's going to try to make New York's life miserable.

[B]

Yeah, yeah.

[D]

Because they need a boogeyman, too.

[A]

Who is they?

[C]

The right.

[D]

The right.

[C]

And so now this is $20,000 for every million you make. Gonna break you, dog. That's gonna break you. How are you gonna survive? Oh, watch this thing fall apart. It's the exact. Remember how sad New York was after Trump won in 2016? Do you remember everybody?

[A]

Oh, no, man, we was popping. That shit was crazy.

[C]

No, no, no. But once I left your house.

[A]

Once you left the party.

[C]

No, you got so sad. And that's how people.

[A]

There were people sad. That was kind of funny. It was only because of the arrogance that they had going into it.

[C]

It was funny. Dude, you have to book the Javit center with the glass ceiling because we're.

[A]

Gonna break through it. Hillary, you loser. I know.

[C]

Unbelievable, dude. And then just watching them go home, it was unbelievable.

[B]

That would have been a fun party to go to though. That would have been kind of fun to dj. That party would be awesome. Oh my God. Just mad world non stop. It'd be unreal real.

[C]

But yeah, once the right is doing the same thing now.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

And they're acting like they're so different. Oh, this country is going to. This city's going to slide into. Bunch of people who don't live here texting me.

[A]

Yeah, they're obsessed, bro. The city's going to. What, is it going to fall apart?

[D]

I think he'll get the buses done and the rent freeze.

[A]

What makes you think he'll get the buses done?

[D]

Because it's not that costly. And they. They've already figured out ways to get the funding for that one.

[A]

Interesting.

[D]

That doesn't involve raising taxes. So that's like the first thing he's gonna do.

[C]

He's done it. Everybody's happy. Yeah. I'm not saying that will make him the best mayor.

[A]

I don't think so.

[C]

I think he's. I think his base will be happy enough if he does that.

[A]

So the question is, does his base. The question is, does his base actually want these things and need these things to survive or these things somewhat performative and acts of rebellion against the status quo?

[C]

Former than the latter.

[A]

Okay. So if they need them to survive, then like there's. I've seen like the Zoran supporters. Right. Like most of these people I would imagine are like people who have moved to New York City. They're coming here to try to achieve their dreams in a lot of ways. Kind of like you guys. Right. And it's like coming here to achieve their dreams. They're not only in creative fields, but they can be in other fields. And maybe things haven't worked out for them just yet. And they're looking for a little bit of an extension on the time that they can go after it.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Right. They have $200,000 worth of student loans. They got all this other stuff that's like really getting in the way of them potentially achieving these dreams. And so I don't think being able to take the bus for free is going to change their life.

[C]

No.

[A]

So that's why I don't think that the bus thing, I actually think the buses helps like real New Yorkers who are poor people who are living like check to check and government assistance, like that helps actual poor people. But like the 20 to 29 or the 20 to 34 year olds that are like pseudo creative directors and these types of like kind of pseudo artist people, they don't ride the bus like that.

[D]

Yes. But he needed to do something to hit each group. So the buses are for the poor people.

[A]

Right.

[D]

The rent freeze and the. I think even the supermarkets are going to be for middle class. Because imagine if I can have my choice of a Trader Joe's or government run supermarket. They sell the same eggs, but these eggs are $4 cheaper. I'm to going there.

[A]

Yeah.

[D]

And then there's going to be around the block and then everybody has to drop their prices in order to compete.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I think we're in a place where the expectation for politicians or the hope for a politician is not even that you help us anymore. It's just stop helping only the rich people.

[A]

Yeah. I think that's a great way.

[C]

And I think if I'm a guy who looks at people who are struggling, I'm like, you know what? They got free buses even if I don't need them. That's. Oh my God, somebody finally fucking did that for those people.

[B]

I think it's kind of symbolic. They're just like, who's going to piss off Trump the most?

[A]

Can you speak on that a little bit?

[B]

I feel like there's a sentiment of like, okay, Trump. Like there's people in New York that like, Trump is a dictator, he's going to take over the country.

[D]

Da, da, da.

[B]

Who can we elect that's going to like actively aggravate that?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And Zoran's made it very clear, like I'm going to go against it. Cuomo gets endorsed by him, it's like, oh, he's not going to do it. And Sliwa people don't know he's still battling the mob. So no one knows exactly what's happening, but they're like, this guy is going to just make his life hell. And symbolically he represents everything. The MAGA hates states.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

I think there's a lot of people that are like, yeah, the buses are cool. It feels like it's symbolically helping like the poor working class, but more so it's like Trump.

[A]

I think that this is a component that is not spoken about enough. I think New York has Always been unaffordable. And that's one of the things about New York. Like New York didn't become too expensive this year or the year before. Like, we've always talked about how expensive New York is. Maybe it's become disproportionately so over the last six years. Right. Like we talked to Zarn about that. It's like, I think two bedrooms are up 90 in six years. Something crazy. But I do think, think that there is to what you're talking about. Like, let's say, let's call like the identity politics bubble that was like really just mushed into the grounds by maga. Right. Like the, the MAGA victory and like every single swing state and like the absolute dominance in the election was this message like, yo, the pronouns are gone. You're not doing any of that. It's kind of dead. Right. And I think those people have been incredibly upset, angry and aggravated and they like standing for someone who seems like is going to have their back. And what's very interesting is that Mamdani didn't even really talk about identity politics on the issue. He kind of like really ran a Bernie campaign. Like, Bernie don't give a fuck about if you're gay or not. He said as much on the podcast. Who cares if you're gay, You're a good person or not. But Zoron already checks off multiple of the identity politics. Immigrant, brown, African, Muslim. Muslim. Right. Like, so he's already part of the community and his politics reflect the community. So it's a very interesting. Like simply by subscribing to him, you are rejecting maga. And I think that that's not talked about enough. I think people made it just about affordability. But there's a lot of people, like the people kind of queening out about it. Yeah, Like, I never met a broke gay guy. I don't, I never met one. I don't even think they exist. I really don't know. They're not spending money trying to get pussy.

[C]

Here's what I would say to that.

[A]

I think so. Just like, so I really feel, just to button it up, like, I really do feel like he was able to galvanize that community as well.

[C]

Yeah, as well as what I said as well.

[A]

It's only, yeah.

[C]

2008 to 2016 conservatives got fucking mushed into the ground. PC politics went up, went up, went up. And part of Trump's appeal was the absolute, absolute rejection of that. And it will piss off these left wing people who are telling us we can't say xyz. So that exists.

[A]

Who are making fun of us for being dumb every single night on tv.

[C]

Oh, yeah, you don't.

[A]

And then Trump starts to make fun of them and it's like, ooh, that revenge feels great, feels nice. Who cares about that other stuff?

[C]

That is a factor. I think overall, it was like you said, the past six years, prices have gone up. A box of cereal by my house is $10.

[A]

Yeah. There's no question. The prices are absurd. And he tapped into.

[C]

And this is what I again, I said this before. What people don't understand is your entire policy cannot be that guy bad. Cuomo offered nothing. A single person, people I know who were dying for Cuomo to win, can't name a single policy of his. Yeah, they don't know anything. Yeah, Zoran. Even if they're not achievable, okay, rent, freeze, the grocery stores, government owned grocery stores, the free buses. We know something. This is the same thing that happened with Trump when they ran Hillary against him and when they ran Common against him. Your entire campaign was that guy bad. It just won't work. And that's why I think people are gonna realize they're like, I'm not doing. This guy's bad.

[D]

And that's why I kind of push back on Marx. Cuz I don't think a lot of the people who voted really care to vote in somebody who's gonna battle Trump. They just wanted to vote for somebody who's looking out for them. And I think a lot of the middle, like, Trump gained ground here in New York because he was speaking to, hey, I'm gonna lower cost of food and all this type of shit. So he just spoke to those same people and he was like, yo, we've seen Trump. It's been a year so far. He hadn't done anything to, to bring things in that direction. I'm going to just try on this other guy.

[C]

And to add to that point, that Israel moment was like a watershed moment for Zoron because he was like, now I'm worried about people here. And we were like, oh, look at that. He's worried about us. Yeah, that's cool.

[D]

Because this is the biggest voter turnout since like the 1960s or something like that. Like, he got a lot of people out of the house.

[B]

I guess I'm talking about the symbolic part from like the Bushwick white girl. That's like a creative director whose, like, dad works at some big company and she moved here four ago, years, years ago.

[A]

Like, she's not affected by the price and rent, because her dad pays it. Her rent is always frozen.

[C]

She loves cosplaying, bro.

[A]

You know what I mean? Like. But. Yeah, but yet she is, like, really impassioned about this. Yeah. So, like, understanding why I think is important. I think Mark tapped into it, and.

[B]

I think it's like, yeah, we get to help the poor people, whatever. But it's like.

[A]

Which is part of her identity also.

[B]

Yeah, exactly. But it's as well.

[C]

I think, as well as we. It's part of it.

[A]

They got her in college. They. Mark. Sister up in college.

[B]

Yes, bro. She got liberalized.

[A]

She got liberalized in college.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

You know, came to New York.

[B]

She's gay now.

[A]

She's gay now.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Couldn't make it.

[E]

Is she single?

[A]

Because it is interesting. It's like, I haven't seen a lot of, like, support for. For Zoram from, like, actual New Yorkers. And I'm not saying that to undercut him, but, like, what I mean by like, an actual New Yorker is, like, somebody who was born here. The.

[C]

You.

[A]

Yeah, but you're like, you're performing. You're. This is what we're saying. You want to be at the party. I was Bernie, bro. I like aoc. What's an actual New Yorker for you to you.

[D]

Me.

[A]

You grew up in a beach community. You grew up near the ocean.

[D]

You were barely in New York. New Yorkers are people who grew up in the boroughs, not Manhattan.

[A]

There's only one city.

[C]

When he does win, he wins. I know this kind of. I don't think this is fully fair, but this is kind of what Andrew was saying.

[A]

So what am I saying?

[C]

How long. This is a poll. How long have you lived in New York? How long you lived in New York City? Less than five years. Five to ten. Ten plus. And then I was born in New York City. The blues. How many people voted for Zoron, percentage wise, and the gray is Cuomo. So 45% of people born in New York City voted for Cuomo versus 34 born in New York City voted for Zoron. I also think some of that is just a lot of those people are probably older.

[A]

If you're less than five years in New York City, 83% of them voted for Zora.

[C]

Here's what I would say, because we can go back years, but not born here. 10 plus years, but not born here.

[A]

But this is a. This is a really important point. If you. If you're here less than five years.

[D]

Yeah, yeah.

[A]

You voted for Zora. This is the exact Thing we're saying, there's no cost to this not working out to you because you'll go home. This is really not your home. This is a dream or a rite of passage or It's a beautiful thing. We want the whole world to come here, but I want you guys to come here. I want everybody who has a dream to come to New York. But if it doesn't work out, you'll go home.

[D]

Home.

[A]

So this is a fun little experiment for you, like, yeah, maybe the rent will freeze, blah, blah, blah. And if it doesn't work out and things do happen, which I don't think they will, by the way, but if it was to go horribly wrong, you would just move back to Dallas or you move back to Tennessee and move.

[C]

Back to wherever that makes sense. I think you're right.

[A]

We don't get to do that. So that's why I think you see a lot more New Yorker New Yorkers like, yo, it's New York is rough and that kind of. But like, I'm not rolling the dice on whatever communism, whatever the fuck they say about him because I can't go nowhere else. Here's.

[E]

Here's what.

[D]

I'll push back a little bit.

[C]

I think you're right. What you say? Sorry. I think five to 10 years, you're pretty much here. 10 plus years. You got roots here. You're probably not leaving. And both of those groups still voted heavily in favor.

[A]

But you're not a New Yorker.

[C]

I also think born and raised New Yorker. I will never say I'm a New Yorker, but I'm here. I'm not leaving as much as I keep saying I'm going to.

[B]

I haven't left.

[A]

You got no roots to New York.

[C]

My fuck. My whole in laws are here. Idiots.

[B]

N you want to go to a Muslim country, bro, you're trying to go to London. You're trying to go to London immediately, you know.

[C]

Jesus. Here's my stupid nieces all here.

[B]

You're going to take them to London, bro. You're going to hijab.

[C]

Their parents are idiots for raising hijab.

[B]

In the whole family.

[C]

My niece's stupid parents, I should say.

[A]

I'll be honest, I'm very impressed. I was born in New York City. 34%. That's what I'm saying. Here's the other number is really good.

[C]

The other thing is a lot of those people born in New York City are probably older. And older people just tend to be more conservative and general. So I think the 45% is some of that. That you got to account for.

[D]

And name recognition. You. If you born here, you've heard Cuomo your whole life. So some people just fart.

[A]

Good point.

[D]

So a lot of people just get in the. And they see a name they recognize, and boom.

[C]

Yeah, yeah. And they're easier to scare with.

[D]

Oh, my God, Tommy, squeeze it up.

[A]

No, I think that's. I think that's fair.

[C]

I think what you said is fair. About less than five years, for sure. That's a great point. And it probably still applies at 5 to 10.

[E]

10.

[C]

I think 10 plus, for the most part. You're not. Most of them aren't going anywhere. Most of them are here.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You might not be.

[C]

And then I think born in New York City, 34% is not bad.

[A]

And a lot of that number is very impressive. That number is very impressive. Beat the.

[C]

Out of the. All the. If sli. Every SLA voted. Every SLI voter voted for Cuomo. He still loses.

[A]

Really?

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Where is sl? Right? Does he know it's over? Yeah, I feel like he's still out there.

[C]

He's on the subway looking for vigilant.

[A]

Looking for criminals and. No, but this is.

[D]

This is what he does.

[A]

Every four years, he runs.

[D]

Runs a threat every four years.

[B]

I'll vote for him next time. I will. I'll run it. I'll run it for sleep.

[A]

Did we talk about it?

[B]

No.

[A]

We talk about brilliant idiots, about how, like, I don't think he really wanted to win. Yeah. Talk about it here on Patreon.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, we did. On Patreon.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because he didn't. He refused to. Come on, player. And there's only one way you win.

[A]

Well, he asked the team, reached out, and then I was hitting up his. And again, this is all like. What is the word we use?

[C]

Speculative.

[B]

Allegedly.

[A]

Allegedly. But it's not alleged because I said it.

[C]

Speculative.

[A]

Yeah. I'm. I'm speculating on their decisions. This is not. Facts. Don't sue us. But I reached out trying to get them on, and then the campaign director, whoever it was I'm connected to, is just reading Texas but not sending anything back. It's the biggest platform in New York City. Like, why would you not want to go on a few weeks before the election unless. And this is how I would speculate. I'd be like, maybe he's like, I'm not going to duck out of the election because I already said I won't go anywhere. But what I will do is not do any big press before Tonight, Chip away anymore at Cuomo. I'll kind of like hide the last two weeks. Or someone got right to his campaign guy and said, yo, I'll give you X amount of money. Just don't say yes to any more big interviews before we want to see if we can do this. Because it. To me, there's. Makes zero sense. If you reached out originally, we're reaching out, trying to get you on, and you're not even. You're reading the text and not even responding.

[D]

Yeah, it's crazy.

[A]

What could you possibly do? Like, let's look at the media. He did the last two weeks before the election.

[C]

There was a debate.

[A]

No, it was even after. Oh, no, sorry. It was.

[B]

It was.

[A]

Yeah, it was right. There was one more debate and then nothing else. Like.

[B]

Yeah. Kind of a smart play, though. Every. Every four years, you run and then just get paid to bounce. Yeah, allegedly.

[A]

Allegedly.

[B]

Allegedly.

[A]

Is the whole family working for the campaign? I got a lot of respect for Curtis. Like, yeah. You know, he put the work in on the street. Like, he definitely is protecting people. I don't think people maybe even understand his history, but, you know, girlfriend, like the Guardian Angels, like, if you're a chick walking down the street, you feel unsafe in the neighborhood, they'll just walk you home. Like, it's. It was amazing. It's like. It's like an amazing contribution to the city for nothing. Yeah. You know, and like, what are you laughing at?

[B]

I mean, Schultz said it was impressive that he taught Puerto Ricans not to cat call. Like, that is. That is impressive to do.

[A]

He did.

[B]

He got him in.

[A]

He got him to not cackle. But then they find out where you live.

[B]

When they retire. Yeah, exactly.

[A]

Then when they stop being the Guardian Angels, you know, it is what it is. All right, guys, let's take a break for a second. Is Men's Health Awareness Month.

[A]

That is, I mean, come on. That is up. How we going to let him do it again? How are we going to let him do it again? The guy was 13 years old. He's a mastermind of 911 at 13 years old. These guys truly genius.

[B]

Said Zoron's mom looked at the election results was just like you're only a mayor. That's, that's pretty funny, son.

[C]

Mayor at 34. Somebody said that's like, that's brutal. For all brown kids.

[B]

Mayor of New York city is only 34 years old.

[C]

He's not president.

[B]

Not old enough.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

So what are you doing?

[B]

Yeah, that's a good point. Oh, you think Trump tries to deport him?

[A]

Yeah, N. I can't. You can't deport him.

[C]

You've been here too long.

[A]

I don't like that. Like, I hope he can't mind his business on that. Like, don't get in his way. Let him try to do his things. If the things don't work. There you go. You can campaign on that if you're Trump. Yeah. If the things ain't working. It is what it is.

[C]

It's funny. You said you can campaign. Like, we're just assuming he's running again the third time. Look at the.

[A]

Why wouldn't he run?

[D]

He's not allowed to.

[A]

Nah, you just have JD Run as president. Trump runs his vice, and then JD Steps down.

[C]

Guy who ain't gonna. He'll pretend he's on board with that. And then.

[A]

And Mary Eric, Kirk and yo, that is foul, too. The Internet is nasty.

[B]

It's wild, bro.

[A]

It's nasty.

[B]

A wild place out there.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

They're trying to make Usha Christian all of a sudden.

[A]

That's my hot. Take that. Before JD Runs, Usha converts to Christian.

[C]

Yeah, I can see that.

[A]

See that.

[B]

Would you give it another look?

[D]

But that was kind of foul of him to just, like, what, throw her on the bus like that? No, he. What?

[C]

You said, I hope she converts to Christianity.

[A]

Yeah, I mean, of course he does, bro.

[B]

What was that combo like when they got back in the. Because he says that, and then the next day he's like, usha has no plans to convert to any other religion. He said that, like, the next day, Like, I'm pretty sure, like, his office put out a statement, bro, telling you.

[C]

You think Indian women's a game. Yeah. This guy said, being president, dude, I.

[A]

Just wanted to listen like a baby.

[B]

I know I just said it. I didn't know. I was just in the moment. Like, I'll tell. I'll tweet it.

[D]

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

[B]

To him, trying to cap with this girl in the back of an SUV is the funniest thing in the world. Vice President, United States of America, getting bitched at by his wife. Like, I know, I know.

[C]

I fucked up.

[B]

One is.

[D]

You saw that.

[A]

Hugs. He's like, yo, why the.

[D]

This hand was in your hair?

[B]

It's an accident. She's shorter than.

[E]

I didn't know it's also their Secret Service. So it's not like an Uber driver you're never going to see again.

[B]

Oh, yeah, dude.

[C]

I would love to get a Secret Service guy to just tell us all the tea on whoever president they do.

[B]

They sign an oath. They sign an NDA.

[A]

Probably.

[C]

Yeah, they must.

[B]

Must, right?

[D]

Probably some hipaa.

[B]

You think Trump should take over the Knicks?

[E]

Take over the Knicks?

[B]

I feel like that's what he's saying with this. He's saying he wants the Knicks.

[A]

Dude, what is he saying right here?

[C]

Don't forget who's daddy.

[A]

Who. Daddy is New York.

[C]

Don't forget who's daddy.

[A]

See, this is what we need. We need a little parody.

[C]

It's like the NFL. It's like a salary cap.

[A]

Yes, yeah, yes.

[C]

Parody.

[A]

That's the problem. Like Democrats. Like, get your fucking shit together, you losers. We actually want you guys to be in power. At least have some power so there can be like a fun little balance and then nothing really gets done. But every. Everybody eats. That's. This is the American way.

[C]

It's true.

[D]

Yeah, we coming.

[A]

Who you got? What's gonna happen?

[D]

AOC is going to take Schuma out of there.

[A]

I don't know, dude.

[C]

What is it? For what position? I don't even know.

[A]

Oh, Jeffries is gone.

[C]

Okay.

[D]

I don't know when his. When he. When his reelection is, but still, like.

[A]

He'S out of here, right?

[D]

Probably. But he's. He got some strong allies that might be.

[A]

Nick Fuente's getting out of the PA. They not playing games. Oh, my God.

[B]

Little 7,000 here, 7,000 there.

[A]

Yo, it is true or no? You get paid a little seven grand.

[B]

We should find out.

[A]

I ain't got no seven grand.

[B]

Yeah, let's look into it. Let's just see.

[A]

Seven is kind of light.

[C]

That's light, dog. Come we get people elected over here.

[B]

Yeah, that's a good point.

[C]

Yeah, but this for sale. But like he's got the number.

[A]

Got to be, right?

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Seven figures come each thing good. You say you can rack them up.

[B]

Yeah.

[D]

Or it's just per episode.

[B]

I think it's per post is what they were saying.

[A]

So every time you post, it's seven grand.

[C]

That's. Come on, step it up. Yeah, step it up.

[A]

Seven is light.

[D]

Tweeting a lot, though. Yeah, Between a lot in one day. You print.

[A]

All right. What's cow saying? Who will be the next speaker of the House?

[C]

Right now they're saying Hakeem Jeffries.

[A]

Ain't no way he's out of here, bro. That guy's.

[C]

That's Charlemagne's fault.

[A]

Charlemagne cooked him with the apac. Shakur. Yeah, he's. He is.

[D]

That's his fault. You saw when he was hiding behind him when he was in a picture with Bibi, but he's.

[E]

No.

[D]

Yeah.

[A]

Oh, really?

[D]

Yeah. So it's like a group of Dems and Republicans, and he's just, like, hiding in the back.

[A]

No.

[B]

Oh, that's hilarious.

[D]

Hilarious.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Why does Trump keep giving press conferences? Stepping out of the bathroom.

[A]

That's fire.

[B]

Like, why? Like, he's, like, in a doorway. Every time I see a clip he's.

[A]

Talking about on the plane, he's just, like, popping out.

[B]

It's like, all right, because he loves chopping up.

[C]

Like.

[A]

But why he loves chopping up.

[B]

Yo, we invaded Nigeria. Anyway, have a safe flight. And bounces.

[E]

Yeah, that's out of Schultz's book. You ever see someone look down the hallway to the bathroom and someone's talking to Schultz through the door? Yeah, I saw his buddy come in to hang with him, and Schultz is like, yo, talk to me, bro.

[A]

He's standing outside the door.

[E]

Door of the bathroom.

[A]

Love this.

[B]

Just leaning outside the door frame. This is kind of where the best combos happen, though. You know, you're trying to leave, and you're like, all right, one more thing, by the way. Grab the frame a little bit.

[A]

I. It's just fire.

[B]

Wait, are they flying? Yeah, they're flying.

[E]

Press flies.

[B]

They're in the air. Wait, the press is with them?

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

Come on. Air Force One.

[C]

I didn't know that.

[D]

It's a quiet plane.

[A]

I mean, that's.

[E]

Y' all got to watch West Wing.

[B]

I didn't know they fly with them.

[C]

I didn't know.

[E]

Set of press flies to all the places he goes, people that he chooses or just any old press secretary and a bunch. A bunch of press. Yeah, every time.

[B]

That's so funny.

[E]

And then they do pressers on the plane, and then they ask questions. Like, the press secretary will ask answer questions.

[B]

I feel like that. That tilts the balance of power a little bit.

[E]

They get itineraries of, like, what's going on that day.

[D]

In what way?

[B]

You ever been on someone's plane and they're talking to. You're like, yeah, whatever. You.

[C]

I agree.

[B]

Like, if I'm on someone's plane, I'll be like, yeah, whatever you say, bro. Nigeria needs it.

[D]

Is this the plane from the Qataris?

[A]

No, they didn't. They didn't fit that one just yet.

[B]

What is that one doing it's getting.

[C]

The World cup in 2042, probably.

[A]

Oh, really? But what does America decide that?

[C]

No, I'm guessing. I was throwing out some.

[B]

I mean, that's. I mean, it's just fire. Giving press conference on your own planes.

[A]

Qatar already had the World Cup.

[C]

I know.

[B]

Oh, yeah. All right.

[C]

Saying it was a bribe.

[B]

It'll be fun to see. Yo, you seen Baron Trump making crazy money? Allegedly. Doing what on the crowd crypto.

[D]

You mean all the. Trump's making great.

[B]

Allegedly. That, like, bro. I mean, Coffeezilla just did something about. But basically it was like, the day before Trump announced, like, some tariff stuff. There was, like, a crazy position put on bitcoin, and it, like, tanked. And that account made, like, 150mil in a day.

[A]

Could you slide back a little bit, my boy?

[B]

And then he did another tariff thing, like, right after it made another crazy amount. And people are speculating that's Barron Trump, allegedly.

[C]

I mean, look, you. You got to be mad at both him and Pelosi. You can't just choose one.

[A]

Oh, 100%. Yeah, yeah.

[C]

You know what I mean?

[D]

Politicians need to start waving different because Zoron was doing that yesterday, and I was like, yo, move the hand.

[A]

He was doing. He was doing.

[D]

Yeah, he kept doing it.

[A]

I'm like, yo, just move it a little bit more. You like somebody. It's all right. Yeah, like somebody is way more.

[D]

If it ain't waved, he was gonna get tomorrow. They looking for anything right now?

[A]

Yeah. All right. What's going on outside of politics, bro?

[B]

You seen the Louvre heist?

[A]

Yeah, I heard they put some woman in charge of security, and then she got jacked immediately. Probably stole him herself. Greedy ass. What was it, jewelry or paintings? Jewelry, jewelry, jewelry. Go to her apart. Go to her house. Go to her house.

[B]

Bro, this story is just awesome. It's just. It's just proof that magic still exists in the world. You know what I mean?

[A]

What do you mean?

[B]

Just a bunch of hot guys, bro.

[A]

Lou, how do you know they're hot?

[B]

They got photos, allegedly, that I seen, and they are hot. Pull them up. Pull them up to pull up the photos. They're legit. So hot. One of the guys is like a.

[C]

Watch your hand, yo.

[D]

He's.

[A]

I know.

[B]

See, it's like, you got hit it like this, bro. It's the communist way. But they showed a video of him. Apparently, he's like a dirt biker is the word. He's like.

[A]

Like a dirt biker.

[B]

He's a dirt biker from, like. He's a dirt biker from his neighborhood, bro. And he snuck in on a cherry picker.

[D]

What race.

[C]

I hate that.

[E]

You don't to want watch movies.

[A]

Please.

[B]

Beyond the Pines. I know. Jake Gyllenhaal. Whatever. Ryan Gosling type.

[A]

I hate this. Scooter and Sydney getting paparazzi while taking perfect pictures on a rock in Central Park. That's what the scooter. Cut that out, bro. Cut that out.

[B]

Scoot. Yeah, bro. They snuck in, stole a bunch of Napoleon's wives exes like jewelry and escaped. Dropped one of them while they were escaping taping.

[A]

No way. Yeah. So they got away with it.

[B]

100 mil. And then they were caught like a week later.

[A]

Where'd they catch them?

[B]

At their apartment, just chilling.

[D]

Well, did they get all the jewels back?

[B]

I think so, yeah. Oh, no. There's still, like, one thing that's gone, and then one of the guys is still at large. One of the dudes. I was a part of it, like, planned it, but, like, they popped in, snuck away on a motorcycle.

[D]

Oh, you got a nice ass.

[B]

It's just like a movie. It's. This is fire.

[C]

Nah, he's handsome, right?

[B]

Why are you not excited about it?

[D]

Is he Arab?

[B]

I think North African or, like. Of North African descent?

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Algerian.

[A]

I mean, if he's committing crime in.

[B]

France.

[A]

Gotta be from a grab.

[B]

Not in Zoran's New York, bro. You can't say that, bro.

[A]

That's. That's.

[C]

No, no. He's getting in here, dude. Amnesty.

[A]

Yeah. Oh, true. What's this right here? Louv Heist. That's how they did it.

[B]

That's them escaping.

[E]

No, that they backed a truck up and they wore safety vest. Look like they knew what they're doing. They had a guy with a clipboard and everything.

[C]

Yeah. This is awesome.

[E]

Back that up.

[B]

It's worth 80 million 100 mil. It's like 100.

[A]

Why were they still at their.

[E]

That's why they stole jewels.

[A]

I know about that.

[C]

Black market. Talk to me.

[A]

Black market.

[C]

You know what? Thank you. I didn't get it until you said that.

[A]

No, it's tricky. It's like buying a dinosaur skull. You got to do it illegally.

[E]

That's why they did jewels.

[A]

But there are people that want dinosaurs skulls. But you shouldn't be able to buy them. They should be in museums and other places. So you got to buy it illegally, and you got to buy it from someone who's not going to say that you bought it. Very difficult to buy a dinosaur skull. Who do you know is buying a.

[B]

Dinosaur this time try. I feel like it's very personal.

[A]

Yeah, I did try. Very difficult and very expensive and highly risky because you have to do your own tests on it to make sure it's an actual dinosaur skull and not something crafted.

[D]

How do you test it?

[A]

Sorry.

[D]

How do you carbon date it?

[A]

I've carbon dated it. I screamed into it.

[B]

Played it like a shell.

[A]

I played like a shell. That often works. The other test that, I don't want to tell you because they'll probably find a workaround for that.

[B]

Yeah, true.

[A]

But I did try to purchase a dinosaur skull. I will not say whether I did or didn't, because it's illegal to own something that powerful. Nicolas Cage blew 150 million pygmy heads in two European castles. See, a lot of smart, dignified people that were not addicted to drugs would do things like that.

[B]

Okay, Pygmy heads and European capital.

[A]

Got to get some pygmy heads, bro.

[B]

I wonder if he threw that in.

[A]

Like, you never stressed out. You just want to roll some pygmy heads around your paw, you know, just.

[B]

A little add on. Like, look, if you take these two skulls, they. While throwing some. Some pygmy skulls on the side.

[A]

I need to see a dinosaur skull anyway. Yeah, you got to find a buyer who's got crazy money and is willing to be discreet. All right, guys, let's take a break for a second. You drink energy? What the hell are you fueling? Okay, Black Rifle's coffee. Energy drinks hit hard, guys. 200 milligrams of naturally sourced caffeine, zero sugar. Sugar. And they give back to veterans, not with tweets, but with real dollars. This Veterans Week, they're teaming up with forgive, co and born primitive to eliminate up to $25 million of medical debt for those who serve. Bravo. We like that. We like that. From November 7th to 11th, 100% of the profits from every product [e-mail] helps fund it. That's real energy, real impact. Free punch.

[B]

That's badass right there, dude.

[A]

Tastes like a roundhouse to communism. Damn right. Hit up blackrifflecoffee.com. use the code flagrant for 30% off. That's flagrant for 30% off. Freedom.

[C]

What's up, noodle dicks? We got to talk about Blue Chew. You know what the blue light means? These are our guys. They have been riding with us longer than any other sponsor. Riding. Get it? Anyway, your dick game is not where it could be most likely. You probably think that shit Is good, but. But it's not. You know what I mean? Just giving mediocre dick. Your dick gets under the bench press, it's not lifting Conor McGregor weights. It's lifting two fives on the side of the bar. You look like a. Now when you get Blue Chew. Hey, man, that's.

Read all the important safety information, all that shit. But if it's good for her, it's good for you. You need to get that shoe. Let's get back to the show. Who. Who do they steal these jewels from?

[A]

Who they steal the jewels from?

[C]

Like, who did they. Where did they get the jewels?

[B]

That was Napoleon's wives.

[C]

And then where did they get the.

[B]

Jewels they stole from India, probably.

[C]

That's what's up. I'm hype about this. I'm h. Hope. I hope the Africa buy them all back. Yo.

[B]

They probably got them from the French diamond mine.

[A]

It was like. It was definitely.

[C]

Wakanda buys all them back.

[A]

Yeah, yeah, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[B]

They just stole the stolen. Really?

[C]

Yeah. Get your back.

[B]

Which is like. What's the law on that?

[C]

Yeah. Why are you even looking for these guys?

[A]

Yeah, right.

[C]

Even Stevens, especially.

[B]

The guy's African. The guy that stole him is. He's taking him home.

[A]

Wow.

[B]

It's magic, bro. God bless. And he's a dirt biker the whole time. Just add that in.

[A]

Exactly.

[B]

Badassery right there. They found him at the airport. That's where he was arrested. With a one way ticket to Algeria.

[C]

I thought they didn't get arrested.

[B]

No, no, no. There's one of them. One guy's at the commando team, as they call it.

[C]

Wow.

[A]

That's crazy. Yeah, Robin, Museums is kind of fire, bro. It's kind of okay.

[C]

It's like guilt free.

[A]

It's kill free because you all stole that shit.

[D]

Yeah.

[B]

Especially because sometimes it helps.

[C]

You ever dinosaur skull? That's not stolen. That's got God's property.

[A]

Yeah, that's true. That's the one thing.

[B]

Unless you steal it from one of us. Allegedly.

[C]

You should really return the dinosaur store.

[B]

There was a Louvre heist back in the 1900s. You know what happened there? A guy came in stolen Mona Lisa.

[C]

Mona Lisa wasn't even a coveted piece of art until it got stolen.

[B]

Gone for two years. Empty frame. People would come and take photographs of empty frame. And then they found it.

[A]

Nocturnal omission. Last night he was saying about Da Vinci Code. Balls deep in the Mona Lisa. It was crazy.

[B]

That would be fire. Honestly, think about it.

[A]

It was crazy.

[D]

Dude.

[B]

Your brain's its own AI.

[D]

Yeah, it is, right?

[A]

It is.

[C]

Is this crazy? The Mona Lisa wasn't even a. It wasn't a hot piece until it got stolen.

[D]

Nobody care mid.

[C]

Yeah, that's to your point. The only reason it's cuz it got stolen.

[A]

Then story somebody stole the Mona Lisa.

[D]

This guy is stupid.

[B]

Can we get Mona Lisa Rule 34.

[A]

Somebody's not. Hey, hey. I'm being serious. Serious right now. Did somebody steal that? Yes, bro.

[C]

1911.

[A]

No.

[E]

That makes you so mad.

[B]

Oh, shows his dream.

[C]

No, to the right.

[A]

Right, There you go. That bro.

[C]

Too many lines on the soles of her feet.

[A]

A little Pixar bubble she got right there.

[D]

Yeah, that's actually a nice one.

[A]

Yeah, go to that one right there. Got golly. Yeah, bro. Golly.

[B]

And they give Da Vinci all this credit when this guy with AI is so much better.

[A]

Yo, go back up. Go back up. Right there. That one right there. With her cheeks full. The left one. The left one right there. That was crazy. Look how full her cheeks are. That's crazy. She huffs and she puffs and she blows. That's bananas.

[B]

That's fire, dude.

[A]

This is bananas, yo.

[B]

Whoa. Simone, Lisa, Hillary Clinton. Mashup.

[A]

Let's go, dude. SeaWorld.

[B]

Oh.

[D]

Oh, this is nice. I like this site.

[B]

So I kind of hope. Okay, this site specifically.

[A]

Yeah, this site is nice.

[B]

So I hope that the one dude stays free. They're also gonna make a movie about this in three years easily. They're in production right now.

[A]

I think I got caught. Yeah. We need to know what happens.

[C]

Need the man to get away.

[A]

Does one guy get away?

[B]

One guy is going to get away. Boofed all the diamonds.

[A]

I mean exactly. The timing on that was unbelievable. And imagine that was just imagine New York, baby.

[B]

A priceless jewel falls out. Just imagine that's how he takes him back to Africa.

[A]

Oh, yeah.

[B]

Oh, that should be fire, man. That got me fired up for real magic still exists.

[E]

A painting got stolen from 98 that they never got back. So this one might not come back.

[A]

What was the pain? Was it a Rembrandt?

[E]

It was a Renoir.

[B]

I think.

[A]

I knew it was a run.

[C]

I.

[E]

Lied to you, John Baptiste. Camille Caro.

[B]

Okay, okay.

[D]

Yeah.

[E]

But a Ren. Was it. Painting was stolen in 1990.

[A]

Oh, that was at the same time.

[D]

12.

[A]

You always got these mixed up.

[B]

You do always get them mixed up.

[D]

It was.

[A]

It was stolen, man.

[E]

Yeah.

[A]

So what happened with this? The female security leader Promoted. She got promoted.

[B]

Promoted. Because now she made these jewels, Val. Invaluable. Now they're so priceless. It's a new Mona Lisa. Everyone's going to go see him. More money for the lose.

[A]

Do you think that they do that on purpose? They should.

[C]

Yeah. They got to be missing for years, though.

[E]

Got to keep it popping someone.

[C]

And they got to be empty. And people got to go take pictures of the case.

[A]

It was empty for a little. Maybe they're trying to entice more robberies. Maybe there hasn't been one for a minute and they're like, like, yo, we're overdue.

[C]

Maybe it's just because now I'm a socialist. But I hope them jewels stay, they go back to whoever they got stolen from in the first place.

[B]

They're doing this with Egypt. Have you heard this? All the Egyptian artifacts impairments back to the Jews, they're going.

[C]

Exactly.

[A]

Why do they have to go back?

[B]

Because they belong to Egypt. Property of.

[C]

Wait, given what back?

[B]

All the Egyptian artifacts around the world got to go to Egypt. Based off one Instagram post I saw. Including the Egyptians. Including the Egyptians. They also got to go back.

[D]

So they built a big ass museum and they just like, hey, can we have all our shit back? But right now the museum's like half empty and they just going to hope that the rest of the world just. Yeah, that's really what it is. It's like the biggest museum in the world.

[A]

I went to the Egyptian Museum.

[D]

No, this is some new.

[A]

Oh, word. The one I went to was ass. I'm not going to lie. Well, that's what they're trying to fix.

[C]

Yo, but they need their shit back. You can't have no Egyptian museum. All that shit somewhere else.

[D]

Doo, doo, doo.

[B]

Well, that shit's kind of embarrassing. You have a whole museum and then you have empty placards of like, this is some shit that we want. This is something like. That's just a wish list.

[C]

A bunch of museum heists. Government project.

[A]

All right, let me ask you guys something. Let me just ask you something. Okay. Some of. Yes, some of. Some of these things only have value because Western society placed value on them.

[C]

You hear the story about the Mona Lisa?

[A]

Now we talking.

[C]

I think it's fitting. I don't know if you've heard it.

[A]

Now we talking. My point is, like, if. If somebody went down there and robbed a museum and took them their museum and put it in the Western Museum, that's fucked up. But if these things were just in the garbage somewhere and somebody went down, they were like, whoa, like the Sphinx. We had to dust that off. They didn't know what to do with that.

[C]

Because he shot his nose off.

[A]

Nah, we had to. Yes, but we also had to dust that bitch off. That was drowning. It was under sand. We had to dust all the sand off of it. We could go in there.

[B]

So maybe they didn't know.

[A]

Say again?

[B]

They didn't know they were paused.

[A]

That's. If they don't know, then what's the point? They just forget. We. We gave it on a value.

[B]

You know how. You know, shifty will grab your phone and do something cool on it? You're like, I didn't know I could do that.

[A]

That's what. That's not his phone, but that's shifty. That's 50. But my point is. My point is, if we took some, like, from the cast castle, if we took some from the museum, if we took some that had value. Yeah, you got to get. Your jewels in India had value, right? Like, you guys knew they were valuable.

[C]

How are you talking to me?

[A]

They took it.

[C]

I'm listening.

[A]

If we took a rickshaw that y' all didn't give a about because you're like, oh, that was what we used to drive around back in the day. We didn't really give a about it. And then it became this, like, ancient relic that was so important to history because the. The west made it special. And then y' all go, oh, but we actually do think that that's important. We want that back. We say, well, why didn't you have that same energy when we was pillaging?

[B]

I see the point here. You know what I mean?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

So we gotta look case by case and see did you guys care about it?

[A]

Did you value this at the time, or was it something thrown in the garbage? We valued it. Now you see that it has value, and you're like, we want that back. Because if we just recycled your garbage, you don't get it back. If we stole something from your castle that you were. That was really important to you, you got it. That's. You gotta give that back. Yeah, I like the logic.

[C]

Kind of, like.

[A]

Kind of, right?

[B]

But also, you don't know what you got till it's gone.

[A]

Sometimes, you know, that's on you. I believe that.

[C]

How about this? Crown jewels. You could give them back, or you could just pay that country the value of the jewels.

[A]

Take your jewels and find a. A suitor, a gentleman caller. Y. Y' all want money? Y' all don't want jewels.

[C]

We want money. Yeah.

[A]

So now you got to find somebody to sell them jewels.

[C]

We can do that.

[A]

Who knows?

[C]

Doug? I know. I know. A guy bought two pygmy heads and a dinosaur.

[B]

What color are the jewels?

[C]

The Kohinoor.

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

I believe it's pink.

[B]

Fact check.

[A]

Let's see.

[B]

Let's see.

[A]

That I'll take. Let's see. Let's see.

[C]

Let's see.

[A]

He might be right.

[C]

K. O h, I missed two months of Joey.

[A]

Don't look that up. So I'm coming in late. I didn't realize. Realized this was an established bro.

[B]

It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable.

[D]

Nah, but there's no way I would have got that. I would have just put some Indian jewels.

[B]

The only way I know is there's an Indian restaurant in my town called this.

[C]

It's not pink.

[B]

Beautiful pink timing.

[C]

It's not pink, I guess.

[A]

What? Why?

[B]

Guys, we go try to rob the jewels and forget which one it was. I didn't know what color it was.

[A]

Hold on.

[B]

I just want to see if you.

[A]

Care about the jewels.

[B]

You got to know what it looks like.

[C]

I just want the money. Let me say. I just want the money. Excuse me.

[A]

Excuse me.

[C]

Yes, sir.

[A]

Full of. Let me ask you a question.

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Full of. Yeah. When you said pick, it was a guest who was going through.

[C]

I thought he was trying to trick me.

[B]

What is the trick? What is the trick?

[A]

Cuz I would have just said clear.

[C]

Now that you're like, you idiot.

[A]

It's not clear. It's not clear either, bro. That is blue.

[B]

That is blue.

[A]

I like that. I like that you went for it, though. That's. That's a fun. The whole Internet. Got to watch him be wrong.

[B]

They could send you in there, be like, pick the crown jewels.

[A]

You'd be like, I think it's big. Have you ever seen Beetlejuice on Howard Stern show when he asks him the math questions, he's like, what is three plus two? And he goes, nine.

[C]

Immediately.

[B]

Doesn't even think about it. That's nine. I think nine.

[A]

That's nine.

[B]

Gonna go with nine. I mean, what are you gonna say if you go back to India and you got a pink. A pink diamond?

[C]

We just want the money. Like I said. Y. Keep the diamond. That's why I propose this whole thing. Keep the dual. Give me the money.

[A]

How much is it even worth?

[B]

Yeah, that's a good. That's a good yawn.

[A]

It's only worth what some will pay for it.

[C]

$300 billion.

[B]

Dr.

[A]

Evil. I think we just give them back, bro.

[C]

Hey, we would take that too because then we can find a suitor.

[A]

I don't think anybody's buying that. People are just a laptop buying that.

[D]

Just make a lab.

[C]

You don't think Jay Z will buy that? Nah, you out of your mind? Who Jay Z will buy it. Little Uzi Vert would buy it, turn it into a grill. Somebody will buy that.

[A]

Dude, no. People need to have money to buy things.

[C]

How much is the value of that diamond?

[B]

That's a good question.

[D]

Oh, that's a replica.

[A]

Oh, the real one could be pink.

[B]

Could be fully pink. Probably pink, dude. Oh, it's. Oh, it's pricelessly considered priceless.

[C]

Value between 500 million and 6 billion. I mean, that's crazy.

[A]

Seems like a big swing.

[C]

The Ambanis could afford that. Zero problems. Zero problems.

[B]

But priceless though, that's. That's a tough leverage point to start a negotiation.

[C]

$6 billion.

[A]

We'll take it.

[B]

It came down to a price really fast.

[C]

$6 billion.

[B]

It's prices or this price of money.

[C]

Thousand percent. You're talking to an Indian.

[B]

That's a good point.

[C]

No, this thing's priceless.

[B]

That is a good point.

[C]

Point.

[B]

It is negotiable. Sorry. You guys got to give back Jaguar though. That's all.

[C]

Even the car company?

[A]

Yeah.

[C]

Take that shitty ass car. Want that?

[A]

Wait, what?

[C]

Dota Motors owns Jaguar and they ruined it.

[E]

Did you see that, son?

[C]

That's been dog.

[E]

No. As payback. The rebrand of Jaguar is insane. And I swear to God.

[B]

You think they did that on purpose?

[E]

I swear to God.

[A]

Oh, the gay guy who's like identity politics in it.

[E]

Yeah, he made it look wild.

[C]

That's cracker barrel.

[E]

But I think it was India getting their get back.

[A]

Oh, like let's destroy this British.

[E]

Remember James Bond gay car.

[B]

Damn.

[A]

Wait, but was Jaguar James Bond for.

[B]

He also drove Martin.

[E]

He also drove Jaguar. He drove a. He drove a Toyota at one point too.

[C]

Oh, that's fire.

[B]

Dude.

[A]

Get the out of here, Miles. What are you talking about?

[E]

He used to wear Rolex and now Toyota.

[A]

Drive a fucking Toyota.

[B]

Yes, he did.

[E]

Pull it up.

[A]

Pull that shit up. Dude. Joey, he.

[E]

He used to wear Rolexes and then he wore Omega. After a while he Also at one point wore like there's an off brand I can't think of for his watch. But yeah, he had a Toyota.

[B]

Damn.

[E]

2000 GT in you only Live Twice.

[C]

See that?

[E]

There's a famous scene. He's going up a.

[C]

Sometimes you guess and that shit is right.

[A]

I didn't guess.

[E]

I took a class.

[D]

I did.

[E]

I did take class on James Bond 07.

[B]

Damn, bro.

[A]

Go down. Go down and move it over so I could read the writing.

[D]

There we go.

[A]

Go down. The car was driven by Japanese agent Aki, who used it to drive Bond to meetings and rescue him from various dangerous situations, including a car chase today.

[C]

He didn't drive it.

[B]

So.

[A]

So James Bond didn't drive.

[E]

Drive.

[D]

I don't know. It said somebody drove him. A little shaky. The light right there.

[B]

Oh, I'm start eating this.

[A]

This is all.

[B]

All time fact check. Here we go.

[C]

Oh, there he is driving it.

[A]

Hold on. He wasn't driving it because the steering wheels on the other side. My g. You let the woman driving.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, that's actually a great point. And you literally see him driving it.

[A]

The girl is driving.

[B]

They're honking at pedestrians and saying, the girl is driving.

[A]

She's behind the wheel, dumbass.

[D]

No, you're wrong.

[A]

You're wrong. They would never let him drive the car.

[D]

They're overseas. They drive on the right.

[A]

They drive on the right side in every country. Overseas in Japan.

[C]

Oh, that Japan. I don't know. Maybe you're right.

[A]

Well, yeah, it's a Jap car, a Japanese car. It's a Jewish American princess car. So he wasn't driving it and they would never let him drive it. Wait, wait, wait.

[D]

I got to stick my feet in it first before you start.

[A]

See, look, she's driving it. She said, get in the car, let's go.

[D]

Yeah, See, you're raw, Miles.

[A]

Come on, bro.

[D]

Fired, bro.

[A]

There's no scene where he's driving it, man.

[D]

Bond would never drive a Toyota.

[A]

They would never let Bond drive a Japanese car and find it n. She's driving.

[B]

Whipping it. She's driving crazy too.

[A]

You don't think that there's a like a rule against this in the production of the film? Like Aston Martin spending millions of dollars probably. Say again?

[E]

Not in the 60s. He just drove an Aston Martin because it was written that way.

[B]

Here we go again.

[E]

He also had a Rolex.

[C]

Here we go. The books.

[A]

So you don't think that there was any financial incentive for him to drive specific cars?

[E]

It was just written that way.

[A]

But after the success of the franchise and it becoming, you know, incredibly.

[E]

There was.

[A]

Yeah.

[E]

Of course, later on, I don't think by. I don't think in 67 there was.

[C]

A.

[E]

Like, financial backing.

[D]

That's it.

[A]

I couldn't think of what the term. So then why is the girl driving and not the masculine lead of the movie?

[E]

I'm going to find the scene where he does drive that car.

[D]

Oh, Miles, come on, find it quick.

[A]

Do you really think, Miles, like I want you to ask yourself, just ask yourself this question. Take a moment to ponder it till you ask yourself. Do you think that in 1967, given the nature of, you know, the politics, especially in Great Britain, a war that was fought, you know, not 15 years before against the country there might be 21 years ago.

[C]

How quickly we forget.

[B]

James Bond driving a fucking Japanese.

[A]

Oh, yeah. Maybe. Maybe longer than that.

[E]

Sorry.

[A]

But. But do you think that James Bond will be driving a Japanese car? Or do you think it's more like likely that the guy who always drives a British car because he is the British Superman would be probably driving a British car?

[E]

He drove a British car because it was written that way. There are other cars he's driven.

[A]

Why do you think it was written that way?

[E]

Because Ian Fleming was sort of a brand?

[A]

Or do you think it's like this is supposed to be the most British person, so maybe he should be in the British.

[C]

You're losing and you're trusting Joey to find it on Google.

[E]

So I think Omega's like his watch brand. It's not a British brand.

[C]

Wow, look at this.

[E]

Do you know what I mean?

[C]

Aston Martin does not pay James Barton Bond to exclusively drive their cars, but pays the film production for product placement. But that's the same thing.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[B]

James Bond, it does. Isn't a real person.

[A]

That's what I'm saying. Like that one.

[B]

Check to James Bond, please.

[A]

Yeah, can you ask.

[D]

I don't know.

[A]

So you think it was just pure coincidence that he wasn't driving the Toyota?

[E]

No, but maybe in that exact scene. But I'm saying he's driven other cars. He wears other.

[A]

But do you think that there are.

[E]

Brand limitations for James Bond in modern day, post 2000?

[A]

But no, not back in the day. You don't think there are any brand limitations?

[E]

Watch the old ones. They're like zany, like goofy films. I don't think there's any powers, bro.

[A]

Yeah, Mixing it up.

[E]

But I don't think anyone was like protective of James bond in the 60s and 70s. This is once again one of those Arguments. We've gone too far. And I'd love to talk about Zoran Mamdani's Queen Link program, which is way more boring but way more fun.

[B]

Yeah, we're letting the liberals divide buy us already.

[E]

Also, I got a great video I sent to Joey about Zon's New York City.

[D]

It was. I was a somewhat. Okay, pivot. We'll take it. We'll take it.

[A]

All right.

[B]

What is this?

[D]

Who's this long face?

[C]

This is offensive.

[B]

Why would.

[C]

This is truly so offensive.

[A]

What is this?

[C]

It's just a woman wearing a ni. Like. You guys think that's funny?

[A]

That's up.

[C]

That's offensive, dude.

[A]

All right, what else happening in the world?

[E]

Anything?

[B]

I mean, New York City Marathon was a vibe.

[C]

I've been.

[D]

Oh, I've been wanting to see this Whitney Houston Challenge.

[A]

Oh, yeah. What is this Whitney Houston Challenge?

[D]

Like, I purposely didn't watch it so we could see it here.

[C]

Al, come on.

[D]

I didn't. I swear to God.

[B]

I was trying.

[D]

No idea.

[B]

I was practicing all week.

[C]

Purposely. He was on white.

[A]

Yeah, yeah.

[D]

I don't open Tik Tok Jo.

[A]

Joey, man.

[E]

It's his own note.

[A]

Joey, man.

[B]

Joey.

[A]

It's. It's funny, but it's not at all.

[C]

He's been talking to us about this Whitney Houston Challenge.

[A]

This funny, but it's not at all. You need to get all the links up before the pod. Just have them ready.

[B]

He's using his left hand. That's the problem. You got to go righty. That's true. Yeah.

[C]

I'm left handed, though, unfortunately.

[D]

Oh.

[A]

Oh.

[B]

You got to try to get it with the beat with the drum.

[D]

Oh, and banger.

[B]

Oh, you kind of hit that, bro. With your new voice. I kind of did with my new voice is nice.

[A]

Oh, wow. AR Arch dog brought an actual drum with a micro. Arch dog. Oh, that's fire. Thank you, my little arch dogs. All right, let's do here.

[D]

Recording.

[B]

That sounds funny.

[A]

That sound is fire. All right, go. Hit me. Hit me. Hit me. Hit me.

[B]

Hit me.

[A]

Hit me. Hit me.

[B]

All right.

[C]

Ready?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

No, you can't have a visual aid.

[A]

Show it.

[B]

No visual aid.

[A]

No visual aid. Try it again with no visual aid.

[B]

Right.

[A]

Try to give a. No visual aid.

[B]

Not bad. That was a little earlier. Not bad.

[C]

All right, are you ready? Yeah.

[A]

You are so unbelievable. Jesus. It's unbelievable how.

[D]

Oh, yo, Wendy's turning a grave.

[B]

You put a different song on. That was a different song.

[A]

You sped that up.

[B]

You.

[A]

You gave him more. You right now, whatever you need, it don't matter. I got it. Damn. Almost there. I like this. Damn. It's. It's. It's. It's one more beat past whatever you think it is.

[C]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[A]

And it marks.

[C]

You don't want to be holding it like a.

[A]

No. All right. Ready?

[C]

Yeah.

[A]

Why keep looking at me? Frankie? We did it. We did it. Yeah. I get credit. I get credit for that bar. New York forever.
