1. Transition Announcement

In what marks a significant turning point for the beloved podcast Black and White Advice, hosts Turner Sparks and Phil Duckett announce that this episode will serve as the final installment of the weekly podcast format. However, they reassure their dedicated listeners that the essence of the show will live on through a new live format.

"We are transitioning the show. It is not goodbye. It's see you. It's see you later." [01:45] – Turner Sparks

"We did the live podcast or the live version of this podcast two or three weeks ago, and it was just better." [02:25] – Phil Duckett

2. Rationale Behind the Transition

The decision to sunset the weekly podcast stems from the overwhelmingly positive response to their recent live show. Turner and Phil highlight the superior engagement and immediate interaction that live performances offer compared to the traditional podcast setup. They emphasize the dynamic nature of live shows, where spontaneity and real-time feedback enrich the content.

"It's gonna be in New York City. But listen, here's what we want you to know. We're Going to do these live shows, and then we're gonna clip it and then post it for y' all, like, share those shits." [06:33] – Phil Duckett

"We did the live podcast or the live version of this podcast two or three weeks ago, and it was just better. It was so much better." [02:25] – Turner Sparks

3. Future Plans

Looking ahead, Turner and Phil outline their ambitious plans to expand the show's reach. They intend to establish a monthly live show schedule, primarily based in New York City, with aspirations to tour and participate in comedy festivals. Additionally, they contemplate corporate events, leveraging their platform to facilitate conversations around race in professional settings.

"They get to interact with the people who ask the question because we thought a lot of people are going to go anonymous." [02:49] – Phil Duckett

"We want to get into some festivals and things like that. It's like, I don't want to limit myself to core." [06:53] – Phil Duckett

4. Highlights from the Q&A Session

The core of this final episode centers around a lively Q&A session, where Turner, Phil, and guest Joe Russell delve into various questions submitted by listeners. The discussions are candid, humorous, and sometimes provocative, staying true to the show's mission of addressing all questions on race, even the most challenging ones.

---

a. Who Makes the Best Fried Chicken: Koreans or Blacks?

One of the standout questions sparks a spirited debate over the culinary prowess of different communities. Phil defends the rich history of Black Southern fried chicken, while acknowledging the growing popularity and unique flavors of Korean fried chicken.

"Korean fried chicken's so good. It is very good. Yeah, it's very good. It's crispy." [17:10] – Phil Duckett

"Korean fried chicken is a spin-off of Southern fried chicken... don't ever fucking play with me." [17:15] – Phil Duckett

b. What Cocktails Do Black People Avoid at All Costs?

The hosts humorously explore the cultural implications of certain cocktail names, touching upon historical contexts and contemporary preferences within the Black community.

"Anything with white people names. Tom Collins. Arnold Palmer's Arnie Peas." [22:14] – Phil Duckett

"I would drink a John Daly. I would drink one. You drink a John Daily." [22:17] – Phil Duckett

c. Explaining the N-Word to a Child

Addressing a more sensitive topic, the hosts provide advice on how to communicate the gravity and historical weight of the N-word to young children. They emphasize education through media such as the film Roots, combined with real-life context to foster understanding and respect.

"Tell them that. Look at where you live. I will drop you off in the projects for a week. If I come back in a week, you're still alive. You can say every day." [33:19] – Phil Duckett

"How do you explain it? Show him the movie Roots." [33:02] – Turner Sparks

d. Socioeconomic Factors Affecting Home Safety Practices

A listener’s inquiry about why some Black individuals might neglect replacing batteries in smoke alarms opens a dialogue on socioeconomic challenges and cultural attitudes towards safety practices. The hosts discuss how financial constraints and communal behaviors influence such decisions.

"Because what are the chances we're actually gonna have a house fire?... no, nobody leave the stove home." [29:44] – Phil Duckett

"But is that also a socioeconomic thing?" [29:30] – Turner Sparks

e. Athletic Performance and Physical Fitness

The discussion veers into the realm of sports, with references to historical athletic figures and the intersection of physical fitness with racial identity. The hosts reflect on how certain athletes defied expectations and stereotypes through their unique approaches to sports and fitness.

"I always think that the most highly skilled athletes of all time are the ones who are wildly out of shape, but could still compete." [24:23] – Turner Sparks

"Hot Plate Williams played for the Harlem Globetrotters... he could smoke cigarettes during halftime." [25:02] – Both Hosts

---

5. Engaging Listener Interactions

Throughout the Q&A, the inclusion of humor and personal anecdotes keeps the conversation engaging. For instance, Phil shares his experience of performing at a comedy club in the Bronx, highlighting the camaraderie and unique challenges of live performances.

"He was like, he was a comedian. I did a show there... Got paid 250 bucks." [11:44] – Phil Duckett

"And then you have to get back in the regular line, which by now is almost out the door, because it's the Bronx. People love chicken." [09:45] – Turner Sparks

6. Conclusion and Farewell

As the episode draws to a close, Turner and Phil extend heartfelt thanks to their Patreon subscribers and loyal listeners. They reiterate their commitment to the upcoming live shows and express optimism about the show's future direction. The hosts leave their audience with a blend of humor and sincerity, ensuring that the spirit of Black and White Advice will continue to educate and entertain.

"Next time we talk to you guys, it will be an announcement right here for the start of our monthly live show." [37:16] – Turner Sparks

"They're all in the dice? They ain't always nice? But you can't think twice and give it black and white advice?" [37:43] – Phil Duckett

---

[Joe Russell]

There's a lot of flies.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh, my God. You think there's a body in here?

[Turner Sparks]

[Phil Duckett]

There could be a dead dog.

[Turner Sparks]

We haven't looked in the. In the other rooms.

[Joe Russell]

They're here because the pod's dead.

[Phil Duckett]

[Phil Duckett]

But we answer all your questions about race, even the scary ones.

[Turner Sparks]

This is black and white advice.

[Phil Duckett]

You got a question but you're scared to ask. Just drop the boys a message. They're up to the task. They're rolling the dice. They ain't always nice, but you can't think twice when giving black and white advice. Black and white advice.

[Turner Sparks]

All right, everybody. Welcome to the show. My name is Turner Sparks. Feel the thrill behind the glass. On the ones and twos, we got Joe the Muscle Russell. Joe, how you doing?

[Phil Duckett]

Hello, everybody.

[Turner Sparks]

It's Russell Slimball.

[Phil Duckett]

Hey. He's back.

[Turner Sparks]

The EIB Network. One final time.

[Phil Duckett]

My fellow Americans. A day that will live in infamy.

[Turner Sparks]

Folks, we.

[Phil Duckett]

I'm Berliner. I believe that's what Kennedy said on his last podium speech. We have some sad but happy news. Okay. I love being your dad, but I don't know if I have what it takes. Your mom has found a better lover. So I'm going to the store to get some cigarettes, and I'm gonna let Turner take it from here.

[Turner Sparks]

We are transitioning the show. It is not goodbye. It's see you. It's see you later.

[Phil Duckett]

See you later. See you soon.

[Turner Sparks]

What we're doing is the podcast as you know it in this weekly podcast form, is going to, as they say in the business, sunset. Hey, we will sunset this show. This will be the final episode.

[Phil Duckett]

And it's not because we don't love you. All right? We love you. The listeners coach stint. When you hear this six weeks from now, because you behind. Thank you for listening, but we are transitioning to a live situation.

[Turner Sparks]

We did the live podcast or the live version of this podcast two or.

[Phil Duckett]

Three weeks ago, and it was just better.

[Turner Sparks]

It was so much better.

[Phil Duckett]

It was not even close. It was like, you know, I get it, but.

[Turner Sparks]

And we don't blame you.

[Phil Duckett]

No, no, no. Could you have liked and sent it to some friends? Possibly? But that wasn't in the cards for Us, we don't.

[Turner Sparks]

Here's what. Yeah, so we. We. It's. It. It works better as a live show because I think it's that it's immediate is that we're right there. It's.

[Phil Duckett]

People are writing questions as they think of them and putting them in the bucket and we get to interact with the people who ask the question because we thought a lot of people are going to go anonymous.

[Turner Sparks]

Wait, wait. Now that you know what I'm realizing right now, we've never. We. This is the first episode we've actually recorded since we did the live show. So we haven't even explained what happened. Yeah, it was great.

[Phil Duckett]

It was amazing.

[Turner Sparks]

It was so good that this show just got canceled.

[Phil Duckett]

That's how good the network was. Like, what are we doing?

[Turner Sparks]

Why are we do. Why are you doing that? You should just do the other thing. So yeah, the live show went so well. What happened? We had. We really had like 25 people.

[Phil Duckett]

25 people.

[Turner Sparks]

But that was enough.

[Phil Duckett]

Felt like Madison Square Garden.

[Turner Sparks]

Us felt like Madison Square Garden.

[Phil Duckett]

Me and Turner were on fire. The riffs were rapping and it will.

[Turner Sparks]

Be Madison Square Garden someday one day.

[Phil Duckett]

But guess what guys? Y' all can also. I'm thinking about we should maybe take it corporate. Go corporate with this shit.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

Like it was that good. Like we. Since DEI dissolved. Turner taught me what that was earlier this season since DEI dissolved, we would be the best situation to like take to HR to break the ice, you know, understand like the questions you want to ask the co workers at work that you would never. You bring us as the mediators.

[Turner Sparks]

Yes.

[Phil Duckett]

And we do the black and white advice show at your job corporate event. Yeah. It's like a team building experience.

[Turner Sparks]

The only issue is everyone now hates dei.

[Phil Duckett]

But no, they.

[Turner Sparks]

I think they hated it in the form it was it. No people. People are very. Every company's like canceling their DE because.

[Phil Duckett]

They really want Trump's funding. But guess what? Let's get into it. The Trump and Elon thing, bro.

[Turner Sparks]

Oh, it's fantastic.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh my God. Could you imagine? I think is. I knew it was going to end but I figured they'd be like professional about it. I'm so wrong. It is so petty.

[Turner Sparks]

It's pretty.

[Phil Duckett]

Did he drops the video of Trump and Epstein island with Epstein with the bitches. Bing, bang, boom, checkmate, bitch.

[Turner Sparks]

But yeah, but I don't. So who do you think is going to win this battle? I think Trump's going to win.

[Phil Duckett]

Well he's the president. If Trump gets out of office Elon would destroy him because he has more money.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, but he has three and a half years left to go. That's how.

[Phil Duckett]

That's how Trump can really make his life difficult. He's going to move back to South Africa and take them.

[Turner Sparks]

Little did Trump really say last night was that a real tweet where he.

[Phil Duckett]

Said that he was going to take.

[Turner Sparks]

His funding where he said what it was. The tweet was like, mediocre musk is high on ketamine. Time to go back to Africa.

[Phil Duckett]

You. You.

[Turner Sparks]

Was that real?

[Phil Duckett]

That was the Onion.

[Turner Sparks]

Was that not real?

[Phil Duckett]

That was. I was like, no, that didn't come from.

[Turner Sparks]

If that was real. I was like, does he have Tony Hinchcliffe writing for him? Who's writing these?

[Joe Russell]

Isn't it funny that we thought that could be real?

[Turner Sparks]

Telling a white guy out of the realm of things, telling a white guy.

[Phil Duckett]

To go back to Africa is insane.

[Turner Sparks]

It was. No, but Trump can cancel. He's already said he's canceling all of his government contracts, which is like, billions of dollars.

[Phil Duckett]

He's like, you want me to make some room for some funding?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

Well, I can't. Yeah. That's like, this is wild.

[Turner Sparks]

The other thing that's crazy.

[Phil Duckett]

I pray we don't get bombed soon, because this, I mean, what better time to come for America than this? We look so weak. We look. We're a joke. I honestly, somebody said they're like, I think, like, the rest of the world actually feels bad for us. I said, do you think that's how the world knows they will come and take over America?

[Turner Sparks]

Oh, no.

[Phil Duckett]

Like, dude, they don't.

[Turner Sparks]

Do you feel bad for, like, the Lakers when they're losing?

[Phil Duckett]

No. No one does feel bad for India.

[Turner Sparks]

We're the Lakers of America.

[Phil Duckett]

Okay, that was too far. But everyone hates, like, I don't care. Like, you know, problems outside of the U.S. i'm like, sorry, I don't really have the capacity for it. I know. It's so up to say that.

[Turner Sparks]

No, that's my point. You ever talk to people in LA who claim to be Lakers fans, and you're like, what do you think about what the Dallas Mavericks are doing? They're like, who? Yeah, I don't even. Never even heard of them.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah, no, it's. It's gotten. It's gotten crazy.

[Turner Sparks]

Anyway, point is, we're gonna do a monthly live show. We don't know where yet.

[Phil Duckett]

It's gonna be in New York City. But listen, here's what we want you to know. We're Going to do these live shows, and then we're gonna clip it and then post it for y' all, like, share those shits. Because I think when you see what the live is versus the podcast, you're going to be like, holy shit, they're right.

[Turner Sparks]

You're going to fly in.

[Phil Duckett]

And then if you don't fly in, we get big enough, we can start touring this thing. We want to get into some. You know, we want to get into some festivals and things like that.

[Turner Sparks]

Corporate's a good idea, but comedy festivals, this is.

[Phil Duckett]

It's like, I don't want to limit myself to core. I'm just saying that'd be a lane that we would look at. We could do everything. I'm all about the money, y' all. If y' all don't know this, you guys could tell over these last couple of weeks, my life is in shambles. This is a cry for help.

[Turner Sparks]

We're getting real. Episode 35.

[Phil Duckett]

Episode 35. All right, I'm fighting for my fucking life, but we got to make money.

[Turner Sparks]

I would. I would. It would be the, like, number one thing I've ever done in my life. If I could be a DEI hire, that would be really. If I could be the one they bring in for DEI training.

[Phil Duckett]

The straight white man. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's a Hail Mary, to say the least.

[Turner Sparks]

No, I'm saying it could have happened if this show. What I want to do. I'm going through our list here because I want to shout out our Patreons subscribers.

[Joe Russell]

Isn't it funny to think that if the audience was bad at the live show, the podcast would still be going on?

[Phil Duckett]

Well, we gotta be doing better than that. Yeah, but that's the thing. It was such a good first show. It's like, what mean?

[Joe Russell]

That's where it's at. Yeah, I agree.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. It was Turner. I was like, I had more fun doing the live show than I've ever had doing the podcast. No offense, you know?

[Joe Russell]

Yeah. I have to set up three cameras.

[Phil Duckett]

And I don't have to travel two days by mule and train to get here. Turner came to my house in the Bronx yesterday.

[Turner Sparks]

Oh, my God.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. Yeah. He took the adventure. How long did it take you to get an hour and 20.

[Turner Sparks]

Hour and 20 minutes in an Uber? It said that. Said it would be 44 minutes.

[Phil Duckett]

Right.

[Turner Sparks]

And then it was one of those things you get in and it just keeps getting longer and.

[Phil Duckett]

Bro. And that's why I was like. When you were like, I'm in the Uber, I'M like, why wouldn't you just taking the train at this.

[Turner Sparks]

The train said an hour, five minutes, 44.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

So I'm like, I'll do the Uber and is an hour and 20 minutes to get there. By the time I got there, I was like, I'm quitting.

[Phil Duckett]

And then my air conditioning doesn't really. It works. But, like, I live in a greenhouse, so it was so hot in there. I felt bad for turn. I gave him a glass of water spot I could do.

[Turner Sparks]

He gave me water. It was great water. And then on the way out, I went. I was like, hey, can I get some to eat? So I go, he's.

[Phil Duckett]

I was like, there's a Popeyes down the street by the train.

[Turner Sparks]

There's a Popeyes down the street. I go into the Popeyes. I go, this is in the Bronx. First of all, bulletproof glass. All like, who's.

[Phil Duckett]

We protect our chicken.

[Turner Sparks]

People are shooting up the place for chicken, I guess on a regular basis. The Indian guy behind the. Behind the glass is scared for his life. And.

[Phil Duckett]

Nah. First of all, my boob definitely. He definitely was not for. He's a real. The guy works the Indian guys. The Indian people work at the Bronx. Popeyes are so cold.

[Turner Sparks]

Okay. So I go in there, and it's. It's. They have one of those, like, machines you order from. So I go put on all my information machine, go all the way through it. It takes five minutes because there's a line to even get to the front of the machine. Get to the front of the machine. Once you put in what you want, what drinks you want, what food you want, you get to the end, you put in your credit card, and it goes, oh, the machine's broken. But then tell you till the very end. So then you have to get back in the regular line, which by now.

[Phil Duckett]

Is almost out the door, because it's the Bronx. People love chicken.

[Turner Sparks]

10 or 15 people waiting, and the lady at the front waits for 10. Eight minutes. I'm gonna say eight minutes. And then.

[Phil Duckett]

Which. Eight minutes is a long time. We wait in line, by the way. Like, eight minutes. You don't realize how long 10 minutes is until you're, like, doing nothing. Eight minutes. Standing in line is out. Is out.

[Turner Sparks]

And she's in the front.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

There's 14.

[Phil Duckett]

So, you know, you got 38 minutes.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, yeah. I'm doing the math.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

I'm 80 minutes away from getting to the front of this Popeye. Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

Let alone let them cook the chicken.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. And then also, the guy behind the glass just keeps walking back and forth, but not even acknowledging, not only that she's there, that there's other 14 people behind her. And so finally she goes, excuse me. And she taps on the glass, like, excuse me, can I. Can I order? And the guy's like, all right, fine. What do you want?

[Phil Duckett]

What do you want?

[Turner Sparks]

And I left.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

I'm like, I'm. I can hold it.

[Phil Duckett]

He's still mad. He. And get into medical school.

[Turner Sparks]

I took the train back downtown. An hour later, I ate dinner.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh.

[Turner Sparks]

And then I was like, yeah, this is too much.

[Phil Duckett]

Well, while I'm over here, I'm going to go get one of those chop sandwiches. There's this bodega that does the chopped. You ever seen that? Like, they take everything. They make the sandwich before they put in, they chop it. It's almost like confetti. The entire. Then they put it. It is the best sandwich.

[Turner Sparks]

What do they chop up?

[Phil Duckett]

Whatever.

[Turner Sparks]

Vegetables?

[Phil Duckett]

No, whatever you order. So if you order a club, but it's chopped, so everything they put, they make it. And then before they put the bread together, they just take it and they chop it with the fucking cleaver.

[Turner Sparks]

Is it one of those Instagram things?

[Phil Duckett]

It was a TikTok thing I saw. And I walked in, the line was out there. Like, this place been here since the 50s. They've been doing job.

[Turner Sparks]

It's around here.

[Phil Duckett]

It's literally right down the street from your house. When I just did this. I did this comedy club. There's a comedy club.

[Turner Sparks]

Oh, I know.

[Phil Duckett]

75 Park.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, right down.

[Phil Duckett]

I just did a show there.

[Turner Sparks]

Laughaholics or something. Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

It's a Black Club.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

125 people. I went in there and I said, holy shit, it was such a great room.

[Turner Sparks]

It's two blocks away.

[Phil Duckett]

It is that. And so when I was. When I come out, I was starving. I'm. I just type in bodega and I'm walking. I said, this is where Turner lives?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

And so I was like, I had no idea. So when I leave here, I'm going to get the chops.

[Turner Sparks]

I asked you a few months ago if you've heard of that club.

[Phil Duckett]

I never heard about it. And then I. And then I got a text like, hey, just confirming tonight, seven o' clock. I completely forgot. I booked it. And he paid me fucking 250 bucks. Wow.

[Turner Sparks]

How much time did you.

[Phil Duckett]

Hamburger gave me. Hamburger handed me an envelope full of cash. I said, damn, I love black rooms. You know, I mean, so. But no I'm going to leave.

[Turner Sparks]

Because they play the real rate that you're supposed to get paid.

[Phil Duckett]

Well, black rooms. The thing is, black rooms don't. When you first start, they. They do pay, but not that great. But once you're in, like, once you're the headliner.

[Turner Sparks]

[Turner Sparks]

Do it, and we'll give you a shout out on a future episode.

[Phil Duckett]

And I might call you the N word.

[Turner Sparks]

All right, we're back, everybody. First, all these questions, by the way, today come to us. They're from the live show. They're the ones we didn't answer in the live show, and we thought, why not do them here? Do them here on the podcast. First question is. And Joe Russell, by the way, grab a mic.

[Phil Duckett]

This last episode, you chime in, buddy.

[Turner Sparks]

Jump in on all these answers.

[Phil Duckett]

We don't want you to be motherfucking Anne Frank.

[Turner Sparks]

You got to do it as Rush Limbaugh.

[Phil Duckett]

And, Frank, I want you to be quiet.

[Turner Sparks]

Here's the. Is that what you're. Like mom used to say when you were being too quiet, stop being Aunt Franco.

[Phil Duckett]

Did you say something? Yes, ma' am.

[Turner Sparks]

All right, here's the first question. Who makes the best fried chicken, Koreans or blacks?

[Phil Duckett]

Man, don't even disrespect me with no stupid like that.

[Turner Sparks]

That's a great question.

[Phil Duckett]

That's a dumb question. First of all, Koreans just started making fried chicken, and you want to know how they started making good fried chicken? Motherfucker. All right, the fucking Korean War is when. When the. All the expats started fudgeing all y' all's hoes, and they was living over there, and they showed them how to fry chicken because most of them was from the south, and they stayed after the war was over. And Korean fried chicken is a spin off of fucking Southern fried chicken. Don't ever fucking play with me.

[Joe Russell]

But, Phil, these Asian people are working on it with precision for 80 years.

[Phil Duckett]

I will not have this debate with white men on whose chicken is better.

[Turner Sparks]

Korean fried chicken's so good.

[Phil Duckett]

It is very good. Yeah, it's very good. It's crispy. That's why you like it, because that's where they got. They got the crunch, but there's too many of them flavors. Nobody want no bok choy chicken wings. Keep it natural.

[Turner Sparks]

I'm. I don't think they have bok choy.

[Phil Duckett]

They got something vegetable. They have flavorings.

[Turner Sparks]

I know that. I know they have flavors.

[Phil Duckett]

I put my testicle on it. That there's a bok choy chicken wing out there.

[Turner Sparks]

No chances of buck.

[Phil Duckett]

Okay.

[Turner Sparks]

But they got other flavorings. They do have flavorings. Yeah. They're very good. They also got baseball at the same time. They're big into baseball from that war.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh, really?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. So, you know, they're not better than Japan. Not at baseball.

[Phil Duckett]

How did Japan's team get so good after we dropped that bomb on them?

[Turner Sparks]

Well, I think you, you know, we learned them a little bit. And sometimes you just got to be told a thing or two, and then you shape up.

[Phil Duckett]

Hey, shape up.

[Turner Sparks]

And you start swinging, you know, for power or whatever.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh, man, that's so great.

[Turner Sparks]

Not. I don't know how they got so good, but maybe because they also. The precision thing, that Joe the muscle.

[Phil Duckett]

There'S a lot of math. And they know velocity is physics. Baseball.

[Turner Sparks]

Yes. Right. Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

They know how to, like, feel the wind. See, the.

[Turner Sparks]

I will say, I went to a Korean baseball game one time, and we were. Last summer, we were in Seoul, Korea, and I'm like, I want to go to a game. The game sold out. It's like 35,000 people there. Right. These guys are like, heroes. And there's one black dude on the.

[Phil Duckett]

Team just from Dominican Republic.

[Turner Sparks]

No, no. American.

[Phil Duckett]

Really?

[Turner Sparks]

American. Black guy hitting dingers just every time. Home run. Home run. The place is going bananas for him. And he lives in Seoul, South Korea. I looked it up. I think he makes, like, 350 grand a year. And then I also looked up his career. I'm like, who is this guy? He had been a career minor league, like, double triple AAA player in America. Got called up once or twice for a couple weeks by a few different teams. And then when he was 30, he was like, screw it. I'm moving to Korea. First off, you're playing double triple A baseball in America. You're making, like, 50 grand.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

So no one knows who you are. You're playing an empty stadium.

[Phil Duckett]

He has a statue now in Korea.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. Or you're making 350 grand a year and you're a hero. Who wouldn' do that? And Soul's a big city. You're not out in the middle of nowhere.

[Phil Duckett]

Right. And they had the Olympics, so, you know, they got to be legit.

[Turner Sparks]

I'm like, why wouldn't everyone be doing this?

[Phil Duckett]

Do you remember what else happened in Seoul when Greg Luganus hit his head on the diving board?

[Turner Sparks]

Is that where he did it?

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah, it was at the 1988 Soul Games.

[Turner Sparks]

And he bled out.

[Phil Duckett]

Bled out. They emptied the pool.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. Because there was an aid scare.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. They were like. He was like, he's gonna. Everybody up.

[Turner Sparks]

It's true. He's a graduate of University of Miami.

[Phil Duckett]

Is he?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, I went to my school.

[Phil Duckett]

He's probably where he got it.

[Turner Sparks]

Come on now, Phil.

[Joe Russell]

I once saw a Korean video of a person who taught a dog how to shoot a bow and arrow, and the dog was hitting targets. Like, if they can do that in.

[Turner Sparks]

Korea, they can make.

[Joe Russell]

They spent 10,000 hours with that dog.

[Phil Duckett]

Frying chicken is like.

[Turner Sparks]

Maybe they do have bok choy for chicken.

[Phil Duckett]

I'm telling you, they do.

[Turner Sparks]

Do you realize what bok choy is?

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah, it's a leafy vegetable.

[Turner Sparks]

It's like saying lettuce fried chicken.

[Phil Duckett]

Turner. I'm not an idiot. I'd eat bokoy. I don't. It is. And this is why. He just tried to white splain bok choy to me.

[Turner Sparks]

You said bok choy fried chicken.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. They season it with bok choy. Be like Italian seasoning, but it's bok choy for Asians.

[Turner Sparks]

Okay, dry.

[Phil Duckett]

They dry it. Grind it out, and then they put a bok choy rub on it.

[Turner Sparks]

I can't think of the other. It's like a sweet rubber. It's like. I think they might have invented, like, the sweet baby rays. You know that?

[Phil Duckett]

You know what? Y' all quit fucking playing with. Stop fucking playing with me. They created sweet baby rays.

[Turner Sparks]

Okay, next question. Yep, that's a fantastic question, by the way. We also should say at these live shows. I don't think we made it clear enough in advance, because everyone was surprised. All the questions are anonymous. People were telling me. Oh, even people.

[Phil Duckett]

They were telling us there are secrets, you know?

[Turner Sparks]

I mean, they were telling us they were scared. People were telling me they were scared to come, and they were, like, relieved when they got there, and then it wasn't. They didn't have to stand up and ask a question if they didn't want to.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

They could do it anonymously. So if you come to these shows, it's all anonymous. Your questions are anonymous. Here we go. Oh, here we go. This is one. Another one from the show. What cocktails do black people avoid at all costs?

[Phil Duckett]

Anything with white people names. Tom Collins.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

You know what I mean?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

Arnold Palmer's Arnie Peas.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

I don't want no old white man's drink because there was a time they wouldn't let us take a sip of.

[Turner Sparks]

That motherfucker so do we know who Tom Collins is?

[Phil Duckett]

I have no idea who Tom's going. I know. It's a gin drink.

[Turner Sparks]

Anyone? I feel like gin.

[Phil Duckett]

I would drink a John Daly. I would drink one. You drink a John Daily. I would drink a John Daly. You know what I mean?

[Turner Sparks]

But Arnold Palmer with vodka.

[Phil Duckett]

Is that. Is that a real drink? Yeah, no.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, it's an Arnold Vodka.

[Phil Duckett]

Now I got to look it. Now I got to look that up. I'm like.

[Turner Sparks]

Because Arnold Palmer is. No, there's no alcohol in it.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

It's just lemonade and iced tea. So then a John Daly is Arnold Palmer. I'm almost.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh, yeah. John Day's cocktails. A Spike version of the Arnold Palmer. Wow.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

John Daly, huh? I would drink a John Daly.

[Turner Sparks]

I don't think he's an old racist, though.

[Phil Duckett]

I don't know. He's from Arkansas, so he might have said a couple times.

[Turner Sparks]

He probably has, but also.

[Joe Russell]

He probably has, but the sentence was I love.

[Turner Sparks]

No, you know what I'm thinking of? I think he's like boys with Barkley. Charles Barkley.

[Phil Duckett]

I can see it doesn't make. Well, he's from Alabama.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. He kind of runs in there.

[Phil Duckett]

So he might not.

[Turner Sparks]

There's that version of that southern white guy who's.

[Phil Duckett]

Who's just cool as with black people. I know those guys.

[Turner Sparks]

You know what I'm talking about? Their white trash.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. They grew up with black people.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

I love those guys.

[Turner Sparks]

I think he might be that.

[Phil Duckett]

Those are the fun white people.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's great. Because he's also been screwed with by, like, they don't want him in any country clubs either.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh, he's smoking. Ripping six with a Bruski. I love John Daly.

[Joe Russell]

It's just because he doesn't shower. That's why I don't want him in there.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

They want him in the club.

[Phil Duckett]

He goes on benders.

[Turner Sparks]

He doesn't wear shirts. Have you seen him golf? He'll do.

[Phil Duckett]

Is he the Bert Kreischer of pga Pre.

[Turner Sparks]

Bur. Kreischer.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah, he's. Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

Before he's done whole things. Yeah. Where he'll just take his shirt off for, like, the. If he's losing by a lot and it comes down to the end, he'll take a shot. Shirt off for the 18th hole.

[Phil Duckett]

That's gangster.

[Turner Sparks]

And just play.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. I noticed they never cut to that. We never seen.

[Turner Sparks]

He might be the most. I like. I always think that the most highly skilled athletes of all time are the ones who are wildly out of shape, but could still compete at a professional level when everyone else had to be. Yeah, right.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. Remember, you can kill.

[Turner Sparks]

Do you remember Hot Plate Williams, the basketball player? He played for the Harlem Globetrotter. No, he played for the LA Clippers.

[Phil Duckett]

And the Clovers were trash when they had Darius Miles. Probably.

[Turner Sparks]

It was. Yeah. Around that area. And he was like. He was their center. He might have been 400 pounds.

[Phil Duckett]

Mr.

[Turner Sparks]

Fat. Yeah, just full on. And then Pig Miller. Do you remember him? Anthony Pig Miller. Remember that guy? They were all just. There was an era in the 90s where you could just be a fat guy.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

And still make it in the NBA.

[Phil Duckett]

That's when his game was still transitioned into full black.

[Turner Sparks]

They know these are all black guys.

[Phil Duckett]

Shut up.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

Pig Miller.

[Turner Sparks]

Pig Miller.

[Phil Duckett]

I figured Hot Plate was pink.

[Turner Sparks]

Miller played with a toothpick in his mouth.

[Phil Duckett]

What was this, 1973? I think you're thinking of the ABA.

[Turner Sparks]

No, no, no. This is.

[Phil Duckett]

Playing with a toothpick in your mouth is crazy. I don't know if they ever let that happen.

[Turner Sparks]

I'm 100%. 100%.

[Phil Duckett]

Okay, well, that sounds a little. But, you know, that's why I said Harlem Globetrotters, because I'm like that. Yeah. Okay. That's pretty crazy. They also used to smoke cigs at halftime in the NBA, so.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, Vladi Zivak did throughout the 90s.

[Phil Duckett]

Jordan said when he first got to the Bulls, he was like. They were like doing coke on the plane.

[Turner Sparks]

And I remember him saying, yeah, that's good.

[Phil Duckett]

When they were. They lost like almost every game. When he got drafted as a franchise player. Yeah, he was like, oh, dude. He was like.

[Turner Sparks]

He was the rookie and he had to go tell all the old guys to shape up, basically because they were.

[Phil Duckett]

All just drunk coke and smoking cigs at halftime.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

NBA was a different place.

[Turner Sparks]

Amazing. The 1986 Mets, do you ever read about them? Daryl Strawberry and Doc Gooden.

[Phil Duckett]

Well, I know he, Daryl Strawberry, battled with addiction.

[Turner Sparks]

So the whole team. I read there's a book called the Bad Guys. One about the story of when they.

[Phil Duckett]

Won the World Series.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, they were fucked up the whole time, dude. The book's amazing. It's. It's. Basically, it's written by the. Who was the guy who was the beat writer for them at the time. So he went to every single game. He was on the plane with them. Their. Gary Carter was on the team. Kevin Mitchell, remember that outfielder? They said Kevin Mitchell was like a real life gang member and would rob cars in the parking lot during the game.

[Phil Duckett]

Why was he not on the field?

[Turner Sparks]

Like, if he wasn't in that day, if he wasn't playing or when they were in the dugout, he would, at some points during games, he would run out to the parking lot and break into people's cars and then run back in.

[Phil Duckett]

The MLB wasn't paying back then. What the. I have no Aaron Hernandez.

[Turner Sparks]

I have no idea. No. But he wasn't killing people.

[Phil Duckett]

But he didn't start killing people until later.

[Turner Sparks]

The book basically says that these guys would have won. They had the talent to win like five rings in a row. And because they were all just coked out of their mind, drugged out of the mind, they won one.

[Phil Duckett]

It's called the Bad Guys one.

[Turner Sparks]

It's called the Bad Guys one. It's maybe the best book I've ever written. The story of the 86 Mets and the. The manager. The what they call it managers.

[Phil Duckett]

That Basel calls them the coach.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. At the time was his rule was do whatever you want as long as we win. I don't care what you do as long as we win. And so they just destroyed everybody for like one season.

[Phil Duckett]

That's amazing.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. Next question.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

Why do some black people say ax acts instead. Instead of ask. I can barely say it. Oh, and then there's another one in this one, but we'll start with that one. Why do people. Why do black people say accents? Is it. Here's my question. Is it a conscious choice, do you think?

[Phil Duckett]

No, it's how they were taught. That's what they heard. If your parents say it, then you're going to say it. That's what, that's how you. That's how you learn English. Yeah. And like you start talking years before you ever go to school. So by the time you're talking, you say ax.

[Turner Sparks]

So he's running around saying ax.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. Cuz that's what they hear their grandma say. Your grandma says or something like that. You know, my mom's an English teacher, so. But I have cousins like in South Carolina who they don't. The color orange. They. They're like, orange, it's earned.

[Turner Sparks]

So it's just. It's just something.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. And I remember I was like, why the. What the is orange. And that's what orange is. And like there's. Oh, eat that orange over there. And so acts the same. People say orange say X. I think.

[Joe Russell]

It'S all Southern just in general.

[Phil Duckett]

I think that's a Southern thing. I think it's slavery talk.

[Turner Sparks]

I've never heard a white person say.

[Phil Duckett]

I have never heard. And I'd be like, first of all, where are you from? I'd be like, all right.

[Turner Sparks]

That would kind of be cool now.

[Phil Duckett]

It would show his. His economic, socio. Economical status.

[Turner Sparks]

If John Daly. Maybe John Daly might say.

[Phil Duckett]

John Daly could possibly say. Can I ask y' all something?

[Turner Sparks]

Did you ever. I knew kids who used to say ambulance instead of ambulance.

[Phil Duckett]

Ambulance. That's how my cousin say ambulance.

[Turner Sparks]

Ambulance.

[Phil Duckett]

Ambulance.

[Turner Sparks]

I knew kids. So there's a part of.

[Phil Duckett]

So you're in California. So they might vote for. I'm from the South.

[Turner Sparks]

Ambulance.

[Phil Duckett]

They're like what? An ambulance called an ambulance.

[Turner Sparks]

I wonder if it's a version of that. There's. I'm from California, but I'm from inland. And there's some hills. There's some like the hills have eyes. The hills out there. There's hill people around where I'm from. And they would. They couldn't. This is like in high school. They're like 17 year olds and they're saying, ambulance.

[Phil Duckett]

Ambulance. I got cousins say ambulance. 100% ambulance. I was like, avalanche.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. So maybe it's just that for Some reason the AX1 is the one that befuddles white people.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. You're not that poor.

[Turner Sparks]

We stick on that one.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah, we're poor. We're not Axe. Poor.

[Turner Sparks]

Yes.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah. It's a different. Yeah, I guess. And then this person had a follow up question. Why. Why don't they. I assume this means black people. Why don't they replace the batteries and smoke alarms? I don't even know that was a thing. Like a racial thing.

[Phil Duckett]

If you watch TikTok or any video, there's normally in a black video, it's a beep.

[Turner Sparks]

There's a beep in the video.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. And honestly, because, let's be honest, what are the chances we're actually gonna have a house fire? Okay. You know how much batteries cost? I can use that little $12 right now. So, yeah, don't nobody leave the stove home. And we probably won't need it.

[Turner Sparks]

But is that also a socioeconomic thing?

[Phil Duckett]

No. Even black people I know with money, they'll. Rich black people, they'll let it beep for like a day or two. Now poor people let it be forever.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

Like people money. It's going to be for a day or two.

[Turner Sparks]

Spike Lee lives down the street. If we went to his house, it'd be a beep.

[Phil Duckett]

It might be a beep.

[Turner Sparks]

We had a beep. We went to China for on that Korea trip last summer, we went to China for, like, 10 days, and then Korea for five or something. And two days into our trip, the neighbors on this floor started texting us that we were. We were beeping our smoke alarm, and we were like. We left.

[Phil Duckett]

White people texted you all that you're beeping?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

That's how you know this is a white neighborhood. And because that's crazy, no black person ever calls them and be like, hey, man, you check your smoke alarm? Like, yeah, bitch, what the fuck is your problem for?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, multiple. Multiple people on the floor, different households. But, like, hey, they didn't call you.

[Phil Duckett]

To say it was a fire. They said there's a beep.

[Turner Sparks]

You think you're annoying us. Yeah, your smoke alarm's going off. But guess what? And, yeah, you're right. So there's a black lady who lives right here behind us, and she didn't say anything. But I will say this. We left keys with her and then with the other white couple. And the other white couple. Three. Three group. Different groups.

[Phil Duckett]

You gave out three sets of keys to start to the neighbors.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, in case. In case you get locked out.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. Okay.

[Turner Sparks]

You got to get back.

[Phil Duckett]

Needs my key. Yeah, well, it didn't work out. A free for all.

[Turner Sparks]

Everyone. Everyone lost our keys. So we. We told them all. We're like, okay, well, you have keys. They have keys. And then the other people have keys. So one of you guys just go in there. You can. You can unplug it.

[Phil Duckett]

You know, the chance of three things. They threw them away. I guess they're like, yeah, okay, Turner.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, but then. Then it's their fault then. So we didn't feel bad about the smart alarm. We're like, we gave you. You had our keys. Joe, what are you doing over there? We told you to be on. You're on this show.

[Phil Duckett]

Hey, man, Joe's over it, man. She says the show's done.

[Turner Sparks]

You're not even paying it. Joe's.

[Joe Russell]

No, I'm looking up Daryl Strawberry's crimes.

[Turner Sparks]

Oh, yeah, I forgot. We got to do a fact check at the end of this thing, so. Okay, so this is from. We didn't get to this question, but I know who it was from, and I'll just say in vague terms it was from an Asian woman in the crowd at our live show. And. But we didn't get to it. But she says, how do you explain to a child that the N word is very bad and why he should never say it's.

[Phil Duckett]

So I'm assuming the Asian lady I.

[Turner Sparks]

Know she has like an eight year old boy.

[Phil Duckett]

Well, she. She was Asian. Her husband was white. So this little half Asian baby turning.

[Turner Sparks]

Around saying, I think she might be from.

[Phil Duckett]

And they're rich. Because she told me that we were at our daughter's violin lesson. So that makes you. Let me tell you something. Let me say. See how much violence? They're not giving those away, Turner. All right? Not to some Asian white baby. They're paying high dollar.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, but if you're Asian, sometimes you put all your money into the violin lessons.

[Phil Duckett]

Now, she said her husband was in tech. They got money.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, they're doing all right.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah. So your little mixed baby, who has no black descent, shouldn't be saying at all. Especially if they play a fucking classical instrument.

[Turner Sparks]

No, no, I think she knows he shouldn't be saying her thing.

[Phil Duckett]

How do you explain it?

[Turner Sparks]

How do you explain that he should show.

[Phil Duckett]

Show him the movie Roots.

[Turner Sparks]

I would assume he's trying to say it as like a cool way. Yeah, like, I live in Brooklyn, I'm cool.

[Phil Duckett]

You live in a brownstone in Brooklyn. You're not fudgeing. Cool. Tell them that. Look at where you live. I will drop you off in the projects. You make it a week.

[Turner Sparks]

Now that's the answer.

[Phil Duckett]

You.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, you.

[Phil Duckett]

I'll drop you off in the project for a week. If I come back in a week, you're still alive. You can say every day.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah, there you go. But, mom, it rolls off the tongue. What if he just makes it in the project? They love him.

[Phil Duckett]

He just comes a kingpin. Yeah, they take him under his wing.

[Turner Sparks]

Mom, I'm not coming home after a week.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah, that'd be. And then I'd be like, say, nick away.

[Turner Sparks]

There you go. That's the. That's the deal. That's.

[Phil Duckett]

Mom, that chicken is so much better than yours because you've never been to Korea, baby.

[Turner Sparks]

Joe Russell, for the final time, what did we get right? Should we do fact check? Should we add. I was thinking, should that be something we add to the live show?

[Phil Duckett]

No, let's not overcomplicate this.

[Turner Sparks]

Okay.

[Joe Russell]

Okay, so number one, what do we get right?

[Turner Sparks]

What do we get?

[Joe Russell]

You got right, that. Yes, the pod is ending.

[Turner Sparks]

What was our big argument about? Oh, if there's bot. Is there such thing as bok choy fried chicken?

[Joe Russell]

I didn't look it up, but. No, there isn't.

[Phil Duckett]

I'll do my own fact check. We need a second opinion.

[Turner Sparks]

It's not a spice that you would.

[Phil Duckett]

Make it Bach choy fried.

[Turner Sparks]

Can I do one fact Check of my own. By the way, there's been multiple times on this show where I've said something. Phil's told me I'm wrong, convinced me I'm wrong, and then I look it up afterwards and I was right.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

One of them.

[Phil Duckett]

They've only done stir fry, bok choy, fried chicken.

[Turner Sparks]

Oh, well, it's not a flavor. I'm.

[Phil Duckett]

I'm going to make it now.

[Turner Sparks]

Okay, sounds good.

[Phil Duckett]

All right.

[Turner Sparks]

One. You. We were talking with Ari. We were talking about the neighborhood down the street where Jay Z grew up. And I was like, oh, he grew up in a Jewish neighborhood? And you're like, no, the Jews came way later.

[Phil Duckett]

Totally wrong.

[Turner Sparks]

I googled it. The Jews moved there in like the 1920s or something.

[Phil Duckett]

Really?

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

And they let Jay Z live there.

[Turner Sparks]

He grew up in like the 80s.

[Phil Duckett]

They were the landlords.

[Turner Sparks]

No, he's from the. What do they call? Marcy? Projects.

[Phil Duckett]

Yeah.

[Turner Sparks]

And. But all around the project is the Jew is the Hasidic Jew.

[Phil Duckett]

So how did the projects get built if it was Jewish land? They allowed that?

[Turner Sparks]

Well, it's government lands.

[Phil Duckett]

Oh, got you.

[Turner Sparks]

What's the point? I don't know. What's your point?

[Phil Duckett]

I don't either.

[Turner Sparks]

Okay. All right, what else do we got?

[Joe Russell]

Okay. The recipe for a Tom Collins.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Joe Russell]

Is it's a refreshing gin based cocktail. Typically consists of gin, lemon juice, simple syrup and club soda served over ice. A maraschino cherry and lemon slice are often used for garnish.

[Turner Sparks]

And who is Tom Collins? Do we know or not?

[Joe Russell]

In 1874, a practical joke spread where people would claim to know a Tom Collins who is supposedly talking about others, often leading to listeners to seek out the supposed Tom Collins and get served the drink.

[Turner Sparks]

Wait, it's like a can.

[Phil Duckett]

He was like a gossiper.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

And. And they were like, it was some guy who was fucked up on gin and he was gossiping and they're like, oh, Tom Collins over here.

[Turner Sparks]

Yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

And oh, my God, we got to make a Phil Duckett.

[Turner Sparks]

Some chatty patty. Yeah, yeah.

[Phil Duckett]

Telling all Phil Duckett.

[Turner Sparks]

Is that it?

[Joe Russell]

Unless you want to hear Daryl Strawberry's crimes.

If you're a podcast host, listen up. This one's for you. My name is Allie Jackson. I'm the host of Finding Mr. Height, a dating and relationship podcast that I've been doing for four years now, sharing my positive and practical approach to dating that's built on my own life experience. And I wanted to share another experience that I've had, my secret behind monetizing my show. It's called Red Circle, and I was just telling my colleague about how much I love their platform. With Red Circle, not only am I getting a seamless host hosting experience, but I also love the support I receive in ad sales. It's not just typical ad sales either. It's targeted opportunities based on my show and my life. And the platform is super simple. You just set your preferences, and Red Circle matches you with sponsors that align with your show. You can vet every opportunity, and their platform gives you great analytics. More recently, too, my Red Circle team has brought me opportunities outside of my podcast on social media to really augment the podcast partnerships. Bring them full circle. I just can't recommend them enough. If you want to give it a try, go to redcircle.com to get your free trial. That's redcircle.com, for a free trial.
