Transcript

[Mal]

If you're a man and a dude says, yo, give me some head.

[Rory]

Oh, even with the gun, I don't think you can get me to do it.

[Mal]

I'm dead, Roy.

[Damaris]

If you want to die, you gotta kill me. Take me out of misery.

[Rory]

Cuz the moment like I would put my mouth on the dick, I would look up and be like, just pull the trigger.

[Mal]

At this point, bro, you gotta kill me.

[Julian]

Getting shot with a dick in your mouth is crazy.

[Mal]

No worry.

[Rory]

Cuz it's all in my head.

[Damaris]

I think about it over and over again.

[Rory]

I can't keep it. True music and it hurts so bad.

[Julian]

Yeah, cuz it's all in my head.

[Rory]

Guys, I have something to tell you.

[Mal]

Great.

[Rory]

Maul and I hung out outside of the podcast.

[Damaris]

Really?

[Rory]

Yeah. So we're deading all the rumors that we don't hang out.

[Mal]

What?

[Julian]

You saw each other a block away from the studio and walked over together.

[Rory]

We went to Brooklyn together.

[Mal]

Something like that.

[Rory]

We're pretty much married at that.

[Julian]

When the Brooklyn Chop House.

[Mal]

No, I would never go to Brooklyn Shop house.

[Julian]

You split a porterhouse.

[Rory]

Oh, yeah, Because. Because of the vegan thing.

[Mal]

Exactly. Yeah.

[Rory]

But they'd be in. They'd be in there though.

[Mal]

I don't want to go with Ab at. Let me start. How's that? Cap, tell me why that's Cap, tell me why me saying that is Cap.

[Damaris]

Why would you not want to go where the bad.

[Julian]

Yeah, that's weird.

[Rory]

Bleep that.

[Mal]

First of all, where I be at, it be some pretty women there.

[Julian]

Not chop outs.

[Mal]

It just ain't the women. That's Instagram and shit. TikTok and shit. I don't want to go with none of them bitches. Is that taking pictures in front of neon lights and get. I don't want to know.

[Rory]

But the plate says the name of the restaurant.

[Mal]

I don't want to know. I don't want to be nowhere near that.

[Rory]

That was. Whoever came up with that idea first was a genius.

[Julian]

Oh, yeah.

[Mal]

Putting the name at a restaurant, they.

[Rory]

They understand IG chicks more than any human being ever.

[Mal]

No, it's been name of restaurants on plates since way before social media.

[Rory]

But like, recently, I feel like the ones that the girls go to all added the name to the plate.

[Mal]

Yeah, well, I mean, that helps the specific restaurant, but does it help that specific restaurant though?

[Damaris]

Yes, because I feel like.

[Mal]

I feel like it's certain people you don't want to your establishment. Like if you have a restaurant, when.

[Julian]

It gets to that point, that's when you know, you're successful though.

[Mal]

Yeah, but just. There is a such thing as having the wrong type of people in your establishment. This.

[Rory]

We'll go on cook a little bit more.

[Mal]

Yeah, like if you have.

[Rory]

Like when Tommy Hilfiger didn't want a certain group of people wearing clothes.

[Mal]

Tommy Hilfiger never said that. Oh, that's a rumor that they need to. To bury and never.

[Rory]

That wasn't true.

[Mal]

No, that wasn't true. Tommy Hilfiger never said that.

[Rory]

Look how easy we can put racism. Exactly.

[Mal]

Exactly.

[Rory]

What did Crystal really, like, love black people?

[Mal]

I mean, I didn't go down that, that, that, that hole.

[Rory]

But they're French though, right?

[Mal]

I believe so.

[Rory]

Oh, yeah. Then they said that.

[Mal]

Shit. Yeah, I believe, I believe they are 100%. But yeah, it's just certain.

[Rory]

100% said that when you have an.

[Mal]

Establishment, like you're open, say you're opening a restaurant and you have an idea of the type of restaurant, the type of decor, the ambiance that you're setting for your restaurant, there is a certain type of people that you hope to attract and a certain type of people that you hope will continue to visit your establishment.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Now if you know Instagram models or whoever frequent your spot and they ig it and TikTok it and the business is flooded, that's great. But if that attracts a certain aesthetic, like now the baddies from Bad Girls Club is in there and they start fighting in your establishment.

[Rory]

It's a good promo.

[Mal]

No, it's not. You don't want that in your establishment.

[Damaris]

If that's the, if that's who you're creating. I get what you're saying completely. But if that's who you're creating that establishment for Brooklyn Shop House is created for, for the Instagram models. Say less is created for the Instagram models and the rappers. That's the, that's who they want in there.

[Mal]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But if going into it, if you building an establishment and that's not your business model.

[Rory]

Well, I think, yeah.

[Julian]

Cause that happens.

[Mal]

It could be packed and you know it. But if it's not the right people frequenting your spot and people are fighting and shit is popping off outside, you don't want that in your place of business.

[Damaris]

Yeah, no, for sure.

[Mal]

I don't give a fuck how much money they spending.

[Rory]

Not to make it too local, but like Julon, which is a restaurant in New York that became a very industry, music industry spot, plus Instagram model spot, same people that are now say less. I don't think they set out to have that esthetic, but just leaned into it once it became that.

[Mal]

But every.

[Rory]

Because every spot made them successful.

[Mal]

Every spot becomes an Instagram vixen spot. Once one goes there, all it takes is one to go and take a picture or video that she was there.

[Rory]

But say less. Like that was their goal.

[Mal]

Because people don't even know what they like. No more. People just following who they following. And if they see somebody go to a restaurant, I want to go there. I want to try to go chicken wings.

[Julian]

Well, then you're you talking about. You're also drawing from the. And especially in a city like New York that's heavily, like touristy. So when the people come and visit, they want to go to these spots and the three nights they're here. So you're drawing like from all over the place. Don't fuck with those places. I feel like it's all the people that see it and hear about it and like, I gotta go there.

[Mal]

People on social media that are following people that some of them don't live in these cities. And when they go, they're like, oh, I want to go there. But me, I talk to the people that's from the city that locals like, yo, where's the real good food at? Not the social media, good food.

[Julian]

Come cow.

[Damaris]

Because my little sisters told me they wanted to go to Brooklyn Chop House and I said I would rather cut my own foot off.

[Mal]

Why they want to go to Brooklyn Chop House?

[Damaris]

Because the baddies go there. That's why they want to go.

[Julian]

Because they ate boys.

[Mal]

They want to run in. They want to hopefully run in the Fab. They want to run in the Fab.

[Damaris]

We can go to Pergola. You want to run in the Fab? We can go to Pergola on a.

[Rory]

Wednesday at Go to Target in Jersey or into him.

[Mal]

Running. Running in the Fab at Target might be cool though. Beyonce, like running into a rapper at Target.

[Julian]

A well lit.

[Rory]

Just go on River Road in Edgewater. You'll run into your top five.

[Damaris]

Beyonce says that she loves going into Target in Jersey. Like in like masked up and like with a hat on. And I'm like, girl, you can hide. You. You can't. We all know who your security is. Like, you can't hide your security.

[Julian]

Yeah, I feel like comedy Julius is.

[Rory]

More famous than most entertainers, bro.

[Damaris]

If I see Julius, I will have a panic attack. I know Beyonce is somewhere in the vicinity.

[Julian]

Yeah, Back to the plate thing to the point of instagram models just wanting to take the photo of the plate with the name on it. I feel like if I owned a restaurant like that, I would just fuck with all these women and put like a clock that's permanently on 11 11. So every girl's like, oh my God, my angel number. And she's like, I would just like with them like that.

[Rory]

But that's it.

[Mal]

Just have a clock on 11.

[Julian]

You're just always on. Permanently on a left. But it's not like, for like a neon sign. Like it's a gimmick. It literally just looks like a clock. So when they look over to it, they're like, oh, my God, this is moment.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Or just get nine different versions of plates where you can have 1111, 222, 333.

[Julian]

Because it's so rare to see those. They don't happen twice a day.

[Rory]

No, not at all.

[Julian]

It's just extremely rare to catch an 1111 on your wrist.

[Rory]

If you want to make money though, why wouldn't you do that? Like, restaurants are taking advantage of the social media dating scene where you need to spend a whole bunch of money to go date a bad chick, so their restaurants can over charge for everything. It's a beautiful business model.

[Damaris]

Yeah. But the food is suffering now. It's like so many Instagramable restaurants. There's the neon cool sign and there's all these.

[Mal]

And the food is frozen and they throw that in the air fryer, put some peanut sauce on it, and you slop it up like a.

[Damaris]

What Philippe do to you?

[Mal]

Philippe is terrible.

[Rory]

I've always thought that.

[Mal]

I always thought that food was terrible. That food is terrible. I never liked Philippe. Never.

[Rory]

Philippe is Julong without a neon sign.

[Mal]

Without the wings on the wall. Take pictures in front of girls, see wings on the wall, and they got.

[Julian]

To take a picture like. Like the entrance with just fake plants. And you know, those things just collect dust.

[Mal]

Speaking of plants collecting dust, take that plant that's in the front and roll that down in front of you. Lon, get that out of here.

[Rory]

We do need to put that somewhere. It's taking up.

[Mal]

I know, we know. I know exactly where we could put.

[Damaris]

Insert photo.

[Mal]

I got. I got a. I got a great place where we could put it. We have to take that pot.

[Julian]

Yeah, that pot. That pot is nice.

[Mal]

What you gonna do with that pot?

[Julian]

But like, like a reasonable sized plant. You could probably fit two plants in there.

[Mal]

You can take that pot and put it in your living room. How about that?

[Julian]

I would, but I Think we could do it something nice with it here?

[Mal]

Looks terrible.

[Rory]

I saw moles like studio swag yesterday. That was cool.

[Damaris]

Oh, so that's where you guys were, was the studio.

[Rory]

We were in the stew, yeah.

[Damaris]

Oh, nothing.

[Rory]

I don't call the studios.

[Damaris]

I thought, like, it maybe was something, like, fun.

[Julian]

So what? Okay, so you coordinated a studio session and then you ordered Chop House to the studio?

[Mal]

God, no.

[Rory]

That should come with an A Boogie feature for sure.

[Mal]

Yeah. Hey, Boogie should bring the food. He should bring the chop House to you and be, like, with a hook. Yeah. Like, I got a hook for you. Like. Yeah.

[Damaris]

Who are y'all in the studio with? Like, y'all being real mysterious. The.

[Rory]

I'm not sure if I signed a moneybag Mall NDA. I'm not sure what I can talk about. It was mall sessions, so I.

[Mal]

People, they'll know about it sooner or later.

[Rory]

Well, yeah, it was some fun bucket list stuff that happened in the studio that, you know, Mall will be putting out soon. But, you know, it was nice to see your studio swag. How do you feel about my studio swag?

[Mal]

I don't. What was your. I don't. I was so, like, in my phone shit and going through emails and shit. What was your studio swag? You have your laptop. You have.

[Rory]

Well, I mean, you saw how I command a room, I believe.

[Mal]

Command a room?

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

I don't know if I saw how you command a room.

[Rory]

You saw my productions wag.

[Julian]

Well, you pulled out the sauvignon blanc.

[Rory]

No, rose. There was rose in the studio.

[Mal]

Rory does that, though. Rory hit me. It was like, yeah, I'll come be a fly on the wall. Right?

[Julian]

Then you just hear the.

[Mal]

He's not a fly on the wall. No. Yeah, definitely not a fly on the wall. He's a mosquito in your ear. There's a different. When I say I'm gonna come be a fly on the wall, you won't even know I'm in the room. Like, I'll be in the corner chilling in the cut on the couch. Roy's like, yeah, can you slide that over? I'm like, yo, fam, what happened to you being a fly on the wall? Yeah, slide that over right there. Then bring that. Then double act. She can lay. I'm like. I'm like, yo, what are you doing? I thought she was gonna be a fly on the wall. That's the same thing he did at his album thing. Like, nah, I don't wanna give a speech. I don't wanna talk about it. But this next Song. What we did was we flew out to Morocco and, you know, there was this old. There was this old ancient man in the town that played the Congo.

[Rory]

Ancient man is.

[Mal]

And we found him and we brought him in, and, you know, we flew him out for the day, and it was his first time on a plane. And we had him play the Congos right here just for these four bars, and then get out to his village. It's like, yo, what are you talking about?

[Rory]

I'm glad that the story was entertaining, so I let it rock. Now can we tell the truth?

[Mal]

That. That was. That was my truth.

[Rory]

You got there three hours later than me. Okay, I was a fly on the wall in the beginning, and then I was asked my opinion, and then from there continued to be asked my opinion. And the ideas I had, they wanted me to do, so I did them.

[Mal]

Okay, I'll double check on that theory.

[Rory]

Oh, ask both of them, because Rory has.

[Mal]

He has a habit of doing that. That's what happened. Is somebody like, well, no, that's not exactly what happened. Like, I asked him what he thought about the verse, and then he was like, well, I mean, I would take this and double lay it over here, and then, like, pan it out that way, and it.

[Rory]

Okay, so. But what if I'm right? And what if everyone loves it, loves my idea and goes, yeah, we should do that. Matter of fact, help me do that.

[Mal]

It's not. It's not about being right or wrong. It's just that you initially said you'll come be a fly on the wall, and I was.

[Rory]

And then people started asking me for shit.

[Mal]

No, you were not.

[Rory]

You were that. You came three hours late.

[Mal]

Rory, you're never a fly on the wall in the studio. It's okay. You're never a fly on the wall. Yeah, cool.

[Rory]

I agree with you.

[Mal]

So don't tell. Don't call me and tell me you'll come be a fly on the wall. That's all I'm saying. Whether you're right or you're wrong in your ideas, that's not questionable here. I'm never questioning that. I'm just saying don't be like, yeah, I'll come here to fly on the wall. It's like, bro, you ain't got to do that with me. You're never gonna be a fly on the wall in the studio. It's never gonna happen.

[Rory]

Okay, well, I tried, and then.

[Mal]

No, you didn't.

[Rory]

Yes, I. You weren't even there.

[Mal]

I don't have to be there. I know you. I Know you. I don't have to.

[Rory]

I don't have to. You know me as a phenomenal fucking producer. No matter what room I'm in. Legends asked me what to do.

[Mal]

I know, I. I know you as somebody that if you're in the studio, you're not going to be a fly on the wall. That's what I know.

[Rory]

In that setting, in any setting in.

[Mal]

The studio, you're not going to be a fly.

[Rory]

I definitely have before.

[Mal]

No, you have.

[Damaris]

Did he make the songs better?

[Mal]

This. I mean, the song was cool. It's not like it's not even done yet, though. It's just ideas. It's like it's not a. A complete song yet because you gotta finish it. It's just, you know, it's just. The shell is great, though. Like, the shell of it is there, but, you know, still gotta tweak some shit and change verses and add shit. Like, it's. But it's gonna be a good record, though, for sure.

[Rory]

Nas and Hit Boy, I was a fly on the wall. I didn't say a fucking word. I was terrified.

[Damaris]

You didn't tell Nas he changed your life?

[Mal]

No.

[Rory]

Remember? Cause I like, he knows that, but.

[Mal]

See, but that's different because you wouldn't do that with Nas, though. You wouldn't just start trying to, like, produce a Nas record.

[Rory]

Whoa. The people we were with yesterday are of the caliber they are. Nas in their.

[Mal]

Oh, the producers, for sure.

[Rory]

To me, that's even crazier to tell the legendary producers like that how to produce, let alone a rapper.

[Mal]

I'm just. I'm just.

[Rory]

Nas isn't a producer, so he could.

[Mal]

I'm just taking some production, calling me and saying he's gonna be a fly on the wall in the studio. That's never happened in the history of Rorydom. Has Rory ever been a fly on the wall in a studio? Never happened.

[Rory]

They laid the first NASA hit.

[Mal]

Boy, I could believe that, but I would have to. I would have to ask Hit. I would have to ask him. Boy.

[Rory]

No, he. I was dead quite.

[Mal]

I was.

[Rory]

I was terrified.

[Damaris]

He was starstruck.

[Rory]

Yeah, absolutely.

[Damaris]

So are you getting points on the record?

[Rory]

No.

[Damaris]

Like you.

[Mal]

I do.

[Damaris]

I do.

[Rory]

I do it for the love.

[Mal]

For the.

[Julian]

You said give me a smooth eight.

[Mal]

For the love is crazy. I do it for the love of the game.

[Rory]

I was a fly on the wall. When they laid the first verse, I was asked an opinion. I gave a suggestion of how to structure it going into the. To create a bridge and to create a hook. They Loved it.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

And then asked me to help out in creating it.

[Mal]

Okay.

[Rory]

And then. And then from there, it became my record. I'm joking.

[Mal]

I'm just laughing at the fly on the wall. Shit, he's the loudest fly on the wall you'll ever see in the history of flies on the wall. Let me just tell y'all that.

[Rory]

But this.

[Julian]

This is a horse fly.

[Mal]

Oh, no, he's a fucking. He's one of those hornets you notice in the cr. Hornet out the nest. That's what he is.

[Rory]

Okay, but this goes. This is a call back to a great conversation we had about opportunities and taking them rather than just being the quiet.

[Mal]

See, that's why. That's why they told him to stay away from D'Angelo's door. Remember? Remember when his ass was walking back and forth acting like he had to use the bathroom and kept playing instrumentals like this in his ear? They like your fam. Do me a favor, don't walk past this door again. Like. See, that's why.

[Julian]

Fly on the wall tapping, snapping and humming.

[Mal]

Yeah, Fly on the wall, like. What are you doing? Sit your ass down. Stop walking past this D'Angelo room.

[Rory]

Okay, but you remember the conversation that we were having in that regard, right? For those that don't know, we were discussing. If you have the opportunity to work with certain people or be in studio sessions, would you not respectfully shoot your shot when the time makes?

[Mal]

But that's not an opportunity to work with D'Angelo.

[Rory]

I know. I'm talking about last night.

[Damaris]

Last night we already know.

[Rory]

I would have fucked up that D'Angelo situation, but I still would have tried. Yesterday was a bucket list thing for me. I didn't overstep. I was asked and I thought it went great. And now I have a different relationship with those guys. Outside of just some media pod shit. Now there's a musical relationship.

[Damaris]

Ma, if he was a real friend, you would be happy for him.

[Mal]

I'm mad for him.

[Julian]

Yes.

[Rory]

Mad for him is crazy.

[Damaris]

I didn't say you were mad for him.

[Mal]

I'm just laughing at the fact he said he was gonna be a fl. Flying a wall to me. And I know he's never going to be a fly on the wall in the studio. That's all. That's all I'm talking about. But.

[Damaris]

Well, are you happy for him that you helped further his musical relationship?

[Mal]

Sure. I'm not. I'm not here to. I'm here to always further anybody's situation.

[Rory]

Wait, so white Poindexter me you Simba, ATL Jacob. Sorry, I dropped a lot of names in Atlanta. We were both slides in the wall. There's been JD there's been JD Sessions where I haven't been, and I haven't.

[Mal]

I don't know how much of a fly on the wall you were after I left. I left that session.

[Rory]

Oh, we didn't. We didn't do.

[Mal]

I don't need that. I don't know.

[Rory]

I think we smoked hookah and drank Doucet.

[Mal]

All I'm saying is if a cop asked me what happened after I left, I. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

[Rory]

You're still an accessory.

[Mal]

I would have to ask ATL Jacob, like, yo, how did the session go? If he'd be like, yo, nah. You know, Rory through some ideas, at them, like, okay, he wasn't a fly on the wall. Like, that's all I'm saying.

[Rory]

Actually, the only thing we did do was listen to ATL Jacobs, like, his personal music, and he was doing for other people, where my only response was, that's fire. I didn't make any suggestions. I didn't say, yo, you should get this person on the. I just enjoyed the music he was playing because it was great. Okay, JD sessions. I've been a fly. Sometimes I haven't, but we've been in with JD Division, chilling. I've been a fly on the wall.

[Julian]

Rory's just. Yeah, I was gonna say he's just combing through moments where he's been a fly on the wall.

[Damaris]

Every studio session he's been burning past 10 years.

[Mal]

You know how much his feet was like this the whole time in his sneakers when he was just trying to be a fly on the wall. Like, I just want them to stack that one part right there. But I don't want to say it. It's okay to say. It's okay to offer some outside air. Sometimes that's great for a studio that's part of a studio. That's why I love what Kanye does. Like, people that are in sessions with him. If he gets inspired by what you're wearing or something. You said, like. And he says it on. Like, he'll give you credit on the song. Like, sometimes you need that in the studio. You need other ears and other ideas and other, you know, points of views on a song. What does somebody hear? Cause it may be a great reference, a great recommendation.

[Damaris]

So when I was growing up, I always seen studio sessions, like, they always painted them like it was mad bitches in there. Like, just, like, bitches in the studio half naked. Is it still like that? Like, are bitches still giving each other head like, in that one Jay Z interview, or. No?

[Mal]

Well, that was Uncle Luke's interview with Jay Z, and if Uncle Luke was doing an interview, I'm sure there's gonna be naked women around.

[Rory]

That was in a studio. I thought that was, like, in a strip club.

[Mal]

Oh, it was somewhere.

[Rory]

Oh, it was in the booth.

[Mal]

Sofas. No, it was like, sofas. They was. I don't know where they was at. It probably was in a lounge area or something like that. I don't think it was a recording studio.

[Rory]

She ate pussy for a while.

[Mal]

Well, you know, when you want to be thorough in your investigation of the box.

[Rory]

Do you think she, like, tuned out the interview and was just tunnel vision, uneaten pussy? Or do you think she was, like, trying to hear what. What hove had to say?

[Damaris]

Like, yeah, you know, I just wrote that one take off the top. She's probably like, that's fire.

[Mal]

You know, that they didn't care nothing about what Jay Uncle Luke was talking about.

[Rory]

All right, this is, like, another $500,000 or lunch with Jay Z. Listen to a Jay Z interview in person. Or eat pussy.

[Mal]

Me?

[Julian]

Oh, I'm eating pussy.

[Rory]

One that you like.

[Julian]

I'll catch that on YouTube the next day.

[Mal]

But, like, in front of.

[Rory]

No, you don't have to eat pussy in front of Jay. You eating pussy in front of Jay?

[Mal]

Yeah, I'm about to say who's doing that?

[Rory]

And with y'all history, he would. He would steal the chick.

[Mal]

Yeah, yeah.

[Julian]

Probably during the interview.

[Mal]

At the same time, I'd just be.

[Rory]

A fly on the wall.

[Mal]

That's somebody's mom now.

[Rory]

And this is how I know that, like, I am kind of prude. I'd be very uncomfortable being thigh to thigh with that woman that's getting her pussy ate when I'm doing an interview.

[Julian]

That's pre Covid. Damn. This is pre 9 11. The world was so lit.

[Mal]

It's just fun, yo. You know what's funny about seeing Jay in a situation like this? This is so, like, not who he is today.

[Julian]

Well, yeah.

[Rory]

Was that even him then?

[Julian]

No.

[Mal]

Like, that's probably. That was the first and only time he's ever done an interview like that. But it's Uncle Luke.

[Damaris]

He is probably so uncomfortable.

[Mal]

That's Uncle Luke. So what you gonna do, man? That's part of his aesthetic. Have some. To have some women around that are, you know, enjoying each other's bodies.

[Julian]

So this was what the studio looked like last night.

[Damaris]

I'm sure life was. Yeah.

[Mal]

No, the studio last night looked nothing like that. I could promise you that. Looked nothing like that.

[Rory]

Yeah, there was one girl there and she was there to lay vocals.

[Mal]

It was nothing. There was nothing like this. This is a whole different type of session.

[Rory]

I live in the R B world where that, that doesn't happen. Like the rap world is where they just have. Because it takes them five minutes to lay a verse and then they have a six hour studio session. So it becomes a party. R B takes longer and it's less distracting. So I don't know.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that. I mean, I get it. It just seems like it would be fun to watch.

[Mal]

Women always think that men is somewhere and it's just like a Hype Williams video shoot. I promise you it's not.

[Rory]

I mean, I think it's important for artists to like dedicate a session to inviting a bunch of women and like casual fans to hear because you need the opinion of the cast.

[Mal]

Am I a listening session?

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

I feel like women should be in every studio session. Not like there to. But like women shot. You should always.

[Mal]

So what are you doing? I'm joking.

[Rory]

To cook.

[Mal]

Yes, I agree. You should have.

[Damaris]

You should always be making music to clean up.

[Mal]

We spilled Hennessy.

[Rory]

Yeah, yeah. Fold my hoodie.

[Damaris]

Roll my blunt for women's ear.

[Julian]

The lady referee.

[Mal]

Yeah. No, but I get it though. I agree with what you're saying. Like, you need a woman. Like, I would love to have women around when you're creating music because women tend to be honest with their reaction to music.

[Rory]

But then you. Sometimes you run into like the woman that's actually like a music fan for real, and she has no idea, like, how to actually contribute to the studio. But she's one of those that's like, you know, I listen to Wiz Khalifa before anyone. One of those.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

And she will just not shut the fuck up during the session with suggestions, but has no idea what she's talking about, has never seen Pro Tools and is just saying shit.

[Mal]

She's just a curator of vibes. Exactly.

[Julian]

Rory's describing the Rory of women.

[Rory]

It's not me at all. We can, we can try to make that. That, that narrative.

[Julian]

Would you not call her a fly on the wall?

[Mal]

That woman is definitely not a fly on the wall. But yeah, so she's a mosquito at night, buzzing around.

[Rory]

I'm talking about the girl that, when you're doing the verse is like, you guys should think about putting a hook on It. It's like, yeah, no, we were going to get that.

[Damaris]

That's fucking annoying.

[Mal]

No, that's the girl that can leave now.

[Rory]

Or, like, the most annoying girl that, like, shouts out features that are so astronomically impossible. Like, I think J. Cole would sound great on this. All right, fucking call him then. Yeah, I'd love to have him on this, too.

[Mal]

We all do. You don't say. You don't say. J. Cole would kill this.

[Rory]

Drake should do this hook. Cool.

[Julian]

She probably knows him. Those kind of sick Taylor Swift would.

[Mal]

Sound great on it. You don't say.

[Damaris]

I'm quiet in studio sessions because I'm so. Like, I'm so terrified. And I never want to be that girl. But sometimes I do think, like, oh, this would be. Like, this doesn't sound right. I can't say what's wrong with it, but something's wrong. Because I don't have the term in my brain of what's wrong, but something's wrong. Something's missing. And I just know that that's not helpful. Somebody probably look at me like they want to punch me in the face, so I just shut up.

[Mal]

But you know what? This. This. You shouldn't be afraid of that, though, because Shout out. My guy Mez. He. He directed J. Cole's video. I forgot the name of it, but it's probably still J. Cole's most viewed video on YouTube. That was his first time he did role models. Was that the video where they were driving, like, the Maybach truck through the mud and like that?

[Julian]

Oh, no, I don't think it's that one. He met, he. When we were in la, he told us this. This story, like.

[Mal]

And he, like, that story is phenomenal. He didn't know any terms. He didn't know equipment. He didn't know anything. He was just saying, like, yo, just pull a camera out. I want it to look like this. Like, what was it? Middle Child, which was huge. So Mez, shout out to my guy. Mez. Mez directed that. That was the first video he ever directed. He didn't know what equipment was, what. He didn't know how to, you know, certain terminology when it came to videography and things like that. He just had an idea. I think he had. I think he had the lighting, some of the lighting. Cause I think he was trying to shoot a video for himself. He's an artist as well, and I think that was it. And it just turned into him just shooting. And Cole and Cole was dope enough to give him a shot and be like, yo, Bro, direct my shit. Which I think is absolutely speaks to just the person that J. Cole is to just trust somebody that had never directed a video before, but just trust their creative mind and their creative genius and give him an opportunity to create. Which was what became J. Cole's. I don't know if it still is, but at the time it was his most. Most watched video on YouTube.

[Rory]

Yeah, that's. That song broke like a shit ton of records.

[Julian]

That's his biggest, his highest performing record.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Crazy.

[Damaris]

I just listened to that song in the morning. It's an amazing song.

[Mal]

So, yeah, when you say. When you say stuff like that, like, you don't know how to. Don't be scared. Like, you still have creative energy and creative, you know, thought. Like, just because you don't know how to say it and verbalize what you're trying to say, that doesn't mean that what you have to offer is not something of substance and something that's dope.

[Rory]

I was. When I was watching the Murder Inc. Doc, I forgot the entire story, but Irv, like, got his first shot to produce. I forgot what artist it was, had no idea how to make beats, and was like, yeah, I'll meet you at the studio tomorrow. And then, like, called his friend and was like, yo, what's an mpc? Where do I get one? Can you show me how to work it in three hours?

[Mal]

Right.

[Rory]

And spent the whole night practicing and went the next day. Was like, I'm your producer. Yeah. Sometimes not fake it till you make it, but you have to see opportunities.

[Mal]

And just go after it sometimes, you know, know when to take your. Take your shot, you know what I'm saying? But also be prepared as well, you know, I mean, as best you can. Like, I think that Mez story is phenomenal and just, you know, speaks to somebody that's just a creative genius and just was like, fuck it. I'll try it.

[Damaris]

Has he gotten more work since then? Like, more big work since then?

[Mal]

I think Mez has directed some videos. I know. I think he directs most of his. His own shit because he's an artist as well. But I'm not sure how many other other artists he's directed for after that.

[Rory]

Yeah, Mez is super talented.

[Mal]

No, Mez is one of the, you know, if you don't. If you're not familiar with. With Mez, he's one of the most creative and, you know, talented people that I've ever had the opportunity to kick it with and get to know. Like, his. His creative mind is just amazing.

[Julian]

Like, I believe he did a. He did a Miri for Cole as well in 2021.

[Mal]

So he's Miri.

[Julian]

Yeah, he's got a couple records with Cole alone.

[Rory]

That was when they were, like, on the fdr and was that in New York? It's not that important. Or maybe Felton directed that one. I don't know. We're kind of going on. On tangents here.

[Damaris]

But that was. I think that was really good advice, Malt, for you to give just to the listeners, Amari, because there's a lot of people who. Who probably feel the same way that I feel when they. They feel like they will be good at something, but they might not have the technical background for it or things like that. And, you know, you freeze up, you get scared. You get imposter syndrome.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Because you don't. You think that. You know, a lot of times we put these obstacles in front of ourselves that are not even there. Like, we think things are a lot more difficult than they are and a lot tougher than they are. And then it's like, you gotta start sometime. You gotta start somewhere. You know what I mean? Like, just start. And a lot of the times, you'll figure it out on the way. Like, it's. A lot of our favorite executive producers and songwriters, they didn't know how to structure a hook and a bridge and things like that. They just know that they've had ideas and they've had lyrics and, you know, they just was like, I just want to put this out. And some of these people are now in the Songwriting hall of Fame, you know, musical geniuses that just didn't, you know, they didn't know at first what they wanted to do, but they know they had creative energy and they wanted to put it out into the world.

[Rory]

So that's what's so interesting, just about creative in general. Like, you could have someone that goes through all the steps of. And why you. Film school and like, all the technical, you know, they get the mentor and they do everything, and then just some kid that picks up a camera ends up having a better creative mind and goes much further. Same with trained musicians. Out the ass with every school you could think of. And then you get some kid that literally just has a vision and a MacBook, right. And outdoes that person, you know, which I think is great. Some people hate that.

[Mal]

But, yeah, as long as you have that creative passion, man, just create. Like, don't. The technical terms and all that other. In the. The legal jargon and all that, all that just Create and you'll figure that out along the way.

[Rory]

Music theory.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

What key we're in.

[Mal]

Yeah, who gives a. Let's just go. Just auto tune that. Don't worry about it. Just getting.

[Rory]

Put some verb on my.

[Mal]

Just shut up and say some and then hit the auto tune and we got a hit. And that's just how goes.

[Rory]

No, I don't know what I said. Yeah, Sounds good though.

[Mal]

Yeah, fuck that.

[Rory]

I like the strategy we did a few episodes ago of throwing a voicemail in early. Do we want to do that today?

[Mal]

You've got mail.

[Julian]

I was going to do a classic relationship one, but going off the current conversation we're having, I'm going to switch it. This one is directed at Damaris, but it applies to everybody here, so.

[Michelle]

Hey, everyone, my name is Michelle, I'm calling from Chicago.

[Mal]

Hey, Michelle from Chicago.

[Michelle]

I have a question for everybody, but more specifically Damaris. I know that she has a 30th birthday coming up and it had me reflecting on the big 30s experiences that I wanted to have before I turned 30 a couple years ago.

[Mal]

The big 3, 0 ones.

[Michelle]

The first one was to visit all seven continents. I ended up making it to five. So I'm pushing that goal now to before I turn 35 and the other to have a threesome. And I knocked that shit off my list two days before my birthday. It was incredible. Crazy ass story, but great experience.

[Rory]

Tell it.

[Michelle]

So my question is, before turning 30, Damaris, is there anything that you had wanted to accomplish for yourself? And check off your free 30 list or for anybody. Is there any silly little goals like that that you had before a big milestone birthday? Rory, I really hope to hear new music from you this year. Stays on repeat.

[Rory]

Wow, so you guys make it back.

[Michelle]

To Chicago this year.

[Rory]

It's never not playing in her house.

[Mal]

Stays on repeat. Michelle, stop lying. You listening to drill music and them Chicago all day in your house.

[Rory]

You think she played Chief Keef in her threesome?

[Mal]

100.

[Damaris]

Oh, wow.

[Rory]

Not my album.

[Julian]

Bang Bang.

[Mal]

Hell yeah.

[Julian]

Bang bang to a threesome is crazy.

[Mal]

Exactly.

[Julian]

Two people are coming.

[Mal]

So Damaris, you're halfway to 50. So what we're gonna do is we wanna know exactly what are your goals for turning 34?

[Rory]

Some.

[Damaris]

Oh, wow.

[Rory]

Six'em.

[Damaris]

I'm like, yeah, I'm over halfway. Thanks, Michelle, for calling in. Honestly, I gotta, I gotta. I have to. To be honest, I had a bunch of little goals, you know, in my 20s that I wanted to hit before 30. I wanted to definitely be married or.

[Julian]

At least think Next decade, we'll give another shot.

[Mal]

All right, Stay in the game, baby. Stay in the game. Keep your head up, keep your eye on the ball. All right?

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Julian]

All right, what's next? Where else have you.

[Damaris]

I wanted to be married. I wanted to be on my way to having children. I wanted to own a business. There were so many things that in my 20s, I was just like, oh, like, these are things that I. I'm going to accomplish before I hit 30. And then my 20s came, and all the things that I thought I should be working towards were actually not the things I were working I was working towards, but before 30. Currently, I'm really close, but I just want to get my head right. I just want to be close to.

[Mal]

Getting your head right.

[Julian]

You want to get some head.

[Rory]

Can you guys take anything seriously?

[Mal]

No.

[Rory]

Good.

[Damaris]

No, I'm letting them get there.

[Rory]

Like they're on the same.

[Damaris]

Like, you know.

[Julian]

All right, but okay, but let's be serious. I just actually want good head before your 30s.

[Damaris]

I would. That would be night. If you haven't gotten good head before you're 30.

[Rory]

No, you shouldn't be focusing on all seven continents. Go get some head.

[Julian]

You.

[Mal]

Yeah, I would.

[Damaris]

I mean, going to see all seven continents would have been dope.

[Mal]

She's at five, so that's fine.

[Julian]

You think she had a threesome on. On one of those trips or a local.

[Rory]

The Antarctica trip.

[Damaris]

She was a little late on the threesome. My threesome was like my 21st birthday.

[Mal]

Well, I've never had a threesome, so.

[Rory]

I'm extremely late, so maybe for 50, that could be one of your goals.

[Julian]

Yeah, but you did the train.

[Rory]

You don't want to be having threesomes in your 50s or 40s.

[Mal]

Oh, this nigga's having threesomes and five Sims in their 50s.

[Julian]

Yeah, yeah, we just saw the Diddy stuff.

[Rory]

True.

[Mal]

I can't wait till you see Diddy outside. I hope I'm standing right. I hope I'm standing right there.

[Julian]

What?

[Rory]

It's going to be Russell. It's gonna be Russell Simmons, Diddy and Julian in Bali.

[Mal]

I'm standing right there.

[Damaris]

You ain't gonna help him?

[Julian]

No.

[Damaris]

Fuck you.

[Rory]

Me?

[Julian]

That's a Diddy side.

[Mal]

I'm not taking. No, it's a one on one.

[Julian]

No how? I don't know. You're there. You should be involved.

[Mal]

Out of here.

[Rory]

Hey, man, I'm just a fly on.

[Mal]

The wolf head up. I'm like, yo, listen, you gotta fight. What you gonna do? I'm not. I'm not in that.

[Julian]

I don't know.

[Mal]

Square up. Square up and fight like a man.

[Julian]

Just offer him some head. He'll feel like that's his bag.

[Damaris]

But when I said it, I just.

[Mal]

I just can't wait to be there. I just can't wait to be there. But, yes, Damaris, you want to get your head right before Michelle.

[Damaris]

Yes, I just want to. I want to get my head right. But to be fair, going into 30, I feel like I'm getting older, so there's a bunch of things I can't do. Like, I feel like I'm getting too old to wear crop tops. I feel like I'm getting too old to have certain piercings or, like, I'm getting too old to dye my hair certain colors. Like, I feel like I have to enter into, like, my grown woman business girl with a bob era.

[Mal]

So dress for the job.

[Julian]

Dress like a teacher.

[Damaris]

Well, to y'all see, I got this fucking pantsuit on. I don't want to have this shit on. I want to have a bathing suit top and some cargo pants on with some heels. But I feel like I'm getting going.

[Julian]

Weird in this current environment.

[Mal]

Yeah, where are you going with that on?

[Rory]

Like, that's how Glorilla dresses every day.

[Mal]

But that's why I want to go.

[Damaris]

Back to, like, how, like, loud. I used to dress on MTV in, like, 2000.

[Mal]

Yeah, but she was at the beach house.

[Rory]

Yeah, she was at.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Mal]

Yeah, she was at work.

[Julian]

Not a soundproof room.

[Mal]

Yeah, she had the MTV beach with.

[Julian]

Controlled lighting and no windows.

[Mal]

Maris want to wear bikini top and cargo pants.

[Julian]

Here, there's no windows.

[Rory]

She wants to be a VJ in 2024. Remember, VJs a VJ.

[Mal]

Yeah, they're all podcasters now.

[Rory]

Yeah, pretty much that's all it is.

[Damaris]

See, I'm going backwards. All right, well, so anything y'all wanted to hit before y'all hit 30 or a major milestone age?

[Mal]

I just wanted to be alive. That was it.

[Rory]

That's deep.

[Mal]

Yeah, of course I. 30. Because you, you know, so when you think about 30, when you're, like, 15, growing up in a certain environment, seeing people, you know, die, go to jail for, it's like, damn, 30. Like, don't make it to 30.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

So I was just like, man, listen, I just want to be healthy. I don't want to be in jail. I want to be alive. And that was enough for me. I think sometimes it's great to have goals, but sometimes you just gotta just have some. Just bottom line, shit. Cause then if you don't hit those big goals, you start feeling depressed like my life is. And then somebody on your timeline will save your day and they'll say, well, Oprah didn't start her show until she was 42. You're like, all right, I got some time.

[Rory]

Then you'll scroll to the next page. It'll be someone your age that has hit every goal you were trying to do.

[Mal]

Exactly.

[Rory]

Or no, they just, they just bought a house. They just had their third kid.

[Damaris]

Yeah, you know, it's me now. The fudgeing. The 19, 20 year old girls on Twitter who fudgeing own hair salon. Multiple hair salons in multiple cities and drive around and fucking G wagons. And they're like 20 years old.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

I'm like, yeah, I always said my 20s fudgeing.

[Mal]

So those all the Trump supporters mall.

[Julian]

We're talking about 30. But when's your. Is your next milestone? Would you say it's 45 or 50? Like what, what do you look at now time wise?

[Mal]

I don't, I don't, I've, I've, I said like monthly. Like it's not like yearly or, or.

[Rory]

You'Re more of like a Tuesday guy.

[Mal]

No, I just said like monthly. I just want to have an hour done and knocked off. Like, I'm not, I don't, I don't that yearly, you know, that's all. Birthdays is cool, but I'm, I'm more like realistic. I'm like, all right, I need to get this done before March, April. Like, I'm doing like that now.

[Rory]

Tomorrow's earlier point. I would say my goals now is to actually put less pressure on myself about goals and enjoy the time I'm in.

[Mal]

Enjoy right now as much as I can enjoy right now.

[Rory]

That's a big thing in my 30s that I've been failing miserably at, by the way.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

But at least you know, I'm aware.

[Mal]

Yeah. Sometimes you got to just enjoy where you at, enjoy the moment, enjoy the process and just know that, you know, it was times where you didn't know think you will be where you are right now. Definitely was times where I didn't think I would be where I'm at right now.

[Damaris]

So if, if that, that would that be the advice you guys would give me going into 30 because I didn't want to ask you guys. It's funny that this voice more came up if you had any advice for me going into 30, I'll be 30.

[Mal]

And my advice for you going into 30 would be be open and willing to try and accept things that you never even thought about.

[Julian]

Anal.

[Mal]

I don't know where that falls on the list, but hey.

[Julian]

Well, based on that reaction, it sounds like it hasn't been done yet.

[Rory]

Mine's gonna be kind of, kind of corny. You have to get to know yourself again. Like, learn to get to know yourself in your 30s because it's not the same as your 20s. Yeah, re. Get to know yourself, find out things that you may have disliked at one point. May, like now, like, dude, do the.

[Mal]

Things that you like to do in your 30s. You know, not what you think you're supposed to be doing in your 30s. Do the things that you genuinely just like to do.

[Damaris]

But I never want to be like that. I never want somebody to be like, her old ass. She need to go sit down some. Like, I can't be the old bitch.

[Rory]

30 is not old.

[Damaris]

Trying to look young.

[Mal]

30 is not old, but to the.

[Damaris]

Young girls it's old. Because I remember looking at 30 year olds like, she didn't sit her ass the fuck down. She's old as Fuck.

[Rory]

As a 30 year old, you shouldn't feel old. Any pressure or judgment from people in their twenties that don't you measure yourself.

[Julian]

To someone that was born in 2002. Shut up.

[Rory]

Like, because you have to remember you. We were all that same ignorant 22 year old. Thinking we knew everything and looked at 30 year olds is like, oh my God. Now I know I was wrong. But that doesn't mean I'm Gonna Judge the 22 year olds acting the same way I did. As far as viewing people in their 30s, the only thing, same thing.

[Mal]

The only thing I would say for you is you still are young enough to still be in the clubs. Yeah, but it's, it's, it's how you acting in the club now though, that's, that's the only difference.

[Rory]

You could definitely be 30 in the club. These are old.

[Mal]

There's no. You can.

[Rory]

49 year olds in the club.

[Julian]

You can't throw ass like you're in your early 20s.

[Damaris]

See, I stopped. Excuse me, I stopped doing that a long time. I don't. Being in the club and throwing ass is just not. I'm a very like how Rihanna champagne in my hand.

[Julian]

Rihanna in India when she like half pump faked it. Like you gotta do it like that. You can't like huh.

[Mal]

At 30.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Mal]

No, at 30 you can still throw that ass.

[Rory]

You can throw ass at 30.

[Mal]

Yeah. Hell yeah.

[Rory]

You can throw assets. 60.

[Mal]

Well, where are you church. Okay, that's cool. That's cool. As long as you're in church, you're.

[Rory]

In the deacon's chamber.

[Mal]

That's cool. Throw that ass. Throw that ass, Ms. Mary. But no, you can't at 30. You could be in a club throwing ass for sure.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Okay, so what's the. What's the cutoff for that? 34?

[Mal]

No, I would say like 37.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Rory]

There's never a cutoff. It's. The cutoff is to the consistency. If you're 37 and doing that every Saturday and Sunday, then we have an issue.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

But if you want to go to the club every now and then and throw some ass with your friends, I don't think there's an age limit.

[Julian]

Yeah, I agree.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Rory]

For women, I think for men, it's a little creepier when you're the old guy in the club.

[Julian]

But if you're going with other old guy. Like if you're just going with your older friends to just have a fun.

[Rory]

That sounds like the police need to be called.

[Julian]

I'm not a whole group if you're not.

[Rory]

Yeah, but if you're intense, where is security?

[Julian]

If you're intense or 10, like, say you're going with your wives. My wife. And you bring your wife to the club and it's you, your two best friends, and their wives as well. There's six of you and you have a table. You're doing the night out. That's your night. Yes. It's creepy if it's like the single dude in his, like 50s that just has him at the table and then like every bitch half his age. Yeah, that's weird. That. Yes, that's a no go. No.

[Mal]

I can't wait to run into Leonardo.

[Julian]

See, now why are you trying to line me up against every A list celebrity?

[Mal]

I just can't wait. I can't wait till you see him.

[Julian]

He moves differently because I feel like that's someone I would have seen in those months. But he moves on a hole. He'll just bring him to the yacht.

[Mal]

I was in the club.

[Julian]

Give me your phone.

[Mal]

One night, though.

[Damaris]

Oh, did you take it?

[Julian]

I would love to go out with a patrol.

[Rory]

Was that wasn't their names, was it? Yeah, yeah, it was patrol.

[Julian]

Yeah, it was David Blaine, Leonardo, Tobey Maguire, E from E from Entourage.

[Rory]

I forgot his name.

[Julian]

That's a sick crew.

[Damaris]

Yeah, and none of them are hot, but Leonardo. So I know Leonardo was just pulling all the. And whoever he didn't want, he was passing back to the Other ones.

[Rory]

First of all, David Blaine.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Rory]

David, I feel like could probably just off sheer creepiness and mystery could compete with Leo at that time in the club. Sure. I think was definitely trying to go over to David Blaine to see the posse. Pussy posse. See, that's what I thought they were.

[Julian]

Come on.

[Rory]

Matching robes is crazy.

[Julian]

Killing them.

[Mal]

You know what they was doing? Matching rose. That's the morning after the hang. Hangover night, everybody. Like, we gotta drink green tea. Drink a lot of green tea. I heard it helps. And wear this robe.

[Julian]

Kevin Connolly was in it as well.

[Rory]

Yeah, it's Eve from Entourage.

[Julian]

Oh, that's his name. I never knew his actual name.

[Rory]

It must have been really interesting when, like, one of them was method acting at the time. Like, really getting into a role when they were at the club. That would have been kind of creepy. But David Blaine, I feel like was doing that at all times.

[Julian]

So, you know, he went out with a deck of cards.

[Mal]

Oh, for sure.

[Julian]

He was making panties disappear in like 12 Rolexes.

[Damaris]

Making bitches panties disappear is. You're serious?

[Rory]

Probably. I was making. I was. I was 10 when they were doing.

[Damaris]

If a nigga make your panties disappear, you gotta fuck.

[Julian]

Do you?

[Rory]

I kind of feel like.

[Mal]

Or you've already been fucked and don't know.

[Rory]

It's crazy. It sounds like a Rick Ross line.

[Mal]

I'm just saying. I'm just saying, if you don't know.

[Julian]

Where your panties are, insert out of here.

[Mal]

What else don't you know?

[Rory]

And you know.

[Mal]

You know now word for my sponsor.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

And you know, at times he wasn't even. He wasn't even doing tricks or magic. He was just hiding behind his allure and just staring them in the eyes like. You're wet now.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Aren't you?

[Mal]

Aren't you?

[Julian]

They used to beat up people. They used to, like, get in like gang fights and shit, which is pretty funny.

[Damaris]

Gangs of white men. Do you leave them alone long enough?

[Julian]

Yeah, they were.

[Mal]

That's a sick crew, though.

[Julian]

They said they were highly offensive and misogynistic. No, they were a list actors in their early 20s in New York.

[Rory]

And if you like, look at that squad. I think Kevin is from Long Island. Terrible drinkers.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

David Blaine's from Brooklyn and Leo is like an actual LA kid. Right?

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

That's. Add in some Jaeger. That's a scary group.

[Julian]

Jaeger.

[Rory]

Add some cran teenies in there and they're punching somebody.

[Mal]

I think having a magician as part of your, like, crew is fire. Fire. That's fire.

[Julian]

Especially when you're not him. Like, to be the magician's whack, but to have him around is fire, I think.

[Rory]

I think the hating friend would be the funniest to observe. Like, let me show you how. That's not even a real magic trick.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Whispering the chicks, like, giving them the secret. Like, yo, you know he's not even magic, right?

[Julian]

That was definitely.

[Rory]

Imagine going, yo, you know, magic doesn't exist.

[Damaris]

That's od.

[Mal]

Hate.

[Damaris]

That's od.

[Rory]

I would hate on David Blaine for fun.

[Mal]

Absolutely.

[Rory]

If there was a group of girls.

[Mal]

There, I would tell every girl like, yo, you know he has. It's three coins, it's in his back pocket. Yeah, yeah, I'm definitely doing it.

[Damaris]

Like, nah, but see, I wouldn't like that, dude. Like, why you being a fucking hater?

[Rory]

Like, nah, I would hate, like, yo, you brought a dove to the club. Like, did you have that in your. Yeah, your jacket the whole time?

[Mal]

How'd you get that in? Frogs coming.

[Rory]

No one patted him down. How did you get that in?

[Julian]

Just spit up an aquarium the fuck out of here.

[Mal]

You're having a friend that could just spit up frogs on demand.

[Julian]

You just like spit a koi fish.

[Rory]

That got to be fire financially. That's great though, because you don't have to buy bottles in the club. Yeah, just have him drink like three bottles of vodka and he can just spit it into everyone's drink.

[Mal]

You want a drink?

[Julian]

42.

[Damaris]

Is that 42? It's filtered.

[Mal]

Casamigo. Warm.

[Rory]

Call me nasty though, but when it comes to club bottle prices, I may. I may take.

[Julian]

You would drink the Blaine?

[Rory]

I would take the Blaine. 42. Instead of paying. Instead of taking a $1500 tab to get a 40 bottle. Yeah, I might do that.

[Mal]

Nah, give me a bottle of water. Fuck that. I'm on water on that.

[Damaris]

Being in the club on water is awful. That sounds like the seventh circle of hell.

[Mal]

That's when I found out that the clubs was really terrible.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

That's why when I stopped drinking, I said, oh, the clubs. Clubs are trash.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Like, this shit is just loud and they want you to just get drunk. But this shit is really tr. Everybody's on their phone. Everybody's just standing around. Chicks just making videos of themselves, acting like they like the chicks they sit next to. They don't even. They don't even know these girls. They don't like these girls.

[Rory]

Nah. It's their bestie they just met on ig.

[Mal]

Like get. Be sober and just sit back in the club and look at everything. Tell me if you'll ever go there.

[Damaris]

I can't. I can't. I die.

[Mal]

It's the worst. Yo. Whoever came up with the idea of club, they had to be like, out of their mind.

[Damaris]

Well, clubs didn't used to be like that, though.

[Julian]

Though.

[Damaris]

Clubs used to be fun places. Everyone was dancing.

[Julian]

Everybody was off that good coat.

[Mal]

Yes.

[Rory]

It was the coke.

[Julian]

Yeah. There was no sections. It was just cocaine and a dance floor.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Sounds like a simpler time.

[Julian]

Which is lit with the light up floor.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Julian]

There's a place in Chicago used to go that like, born to had that essence. It was a club with just open, all light up floor. And it was just that everyone was coked out.

[Damaris]

Yeah. I was in there square. I'm talking love. Y'all going crazy.

[Julian]

I loved it.

[Rory]

If they did like a Studio 54, like, anniversary, I would do coke.

[Julian]

Why do shrooms there?

[Rory]

Just. I don't know. I want to feel part of it, but it's not. That's the only. Only time I think I would do cocaine. But it's not outside of. If Rihanna wanted to do coke with me, then I would do coke.

[Mal]

Why Rihanna?

[Rory]

I'm just trying to think of someone that I would do anything for.

[Damaris]

Someone I would do anything for.

[Mal]

Rihanna could get you.

[Rory]

Respectfully, Rocky, I'm sorry.

[Mal]

Yeah. Rihanna could get you to do coke.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

I'm pretty easy.

[Mal]

That's what I was getting to next. Like, I think that any girl could get you to do coke. No.

[Rory]

What? You know me, girls. I've hung out with that do coke in front of me, and I'm like, no, I'm cool.

[Mal]

Okay. Why did you say you was cool?

[Rory]

Because I don't like cocaine.

[Mal]

Oh.

[Julian]

It wasn't trying to be.

[Mal]

It's not. Julian. Julian would have been like. Thought you'd never ask.

[Julian]

That is so not true. What used to be. Yeah, of course.

[Mal]

Oh, no.

[Damaris]

Julian really doesn't, like, he's like, really separated from coke.

[Julian]

I'm not separate. I hang out. Everyone I know does coke.

[Damaris]

I mean, like, you don't. Yeah. You really know anymore.

[Rory]

You know who would kind of be like a downer to club with?

[Mal]

Who's that?

[Rory]

Ryan Garcia.

[Mal]

A downer. Yeah.

[Rory]

I just feel like, you know, the vibe.

[Mal]

I think he would have had a club lit right now.

[Rory]

You.

[Mal]

You think put him in the DJ booth to host. Yeah.

[Rory]

And tell stories.

[Mal]

Exactly. Imagine story time at. At the club if somebody just gets on the mic and tells a story.

[Julian]

Imagine thinking you're going to the club with Him. But then he takes you to, like, one of these satanic rituals, and you just see little boys get stretched out.

[Rory]

I don't think he's gonna go back to those.

[Julian]

I don't think he's a choice.

[Rory]

Well, he's an adult now, and he can fight.

[Julian]

Didn't this just happen?

[Damaris]

Yeah, I think he was recently.

[Rory]

Oh, I thought this happened, like, when he was a kid.

[Julian]

No, he wasn't reminiscing.

[Rory]

Oh.

[Mal]

All right.

[Rory]

Well, please show me the clip for those that don't know.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Hey, bro.

[Julian]

All right, talk to us, bro.

[Mal]

I don't give a bro. They held me down. They made me watch little kids get raped. I don't give a. Anymore.

[Julian]

Where.

[Rory]

Wild question valid, bro. They took me to the woods, bro.

[Mal]

And they type. I'm not joking, bro. I have proof, bro. I don't give a bro. I will show you every video you could ever believe. Bohemian Grove is real. They tied me down and they made me watch, dog. I absolutely don't give a.

[Rory]

Here's my thing. I mean, I'm Tinfoil Hat man and do believe that there is satanic rituals and, like, they are kids and trafficking them. Where I'm not following is that they brought him there against his will, tied him down. But he was still able to keep his phone to get video footage.

[Julian]

Yeah, yeah, that seems.

[Rory]

Yeah, like, I feel him. But I'd love to see the proof and how you were able to. To do that.

[Mal]

This is the wildest promo for any boxing fight I've ever seen in my life.

[Rory]

And also, like, why didn't you just close your eyes?

[Julian]

Well, I mean, if you're there, you gotta watch.

[Mal]

Do you.

[Rory]

I mean, at least to get your bearings of, like, what is about to happen. And then once you get some context clues and start adding things up, I'd probably start closing my eyes.

[Mal]

Listen, those places to me, definitely exist. I'm not saying they don't. It's just something about Ryan Garcia that I just can't. I Not saying I don't believe him, but I'm not saying that I do believe him. I'm kind of, like, indifferent about this. Here's a guy that's had 230amateur fights.

[Julian]

Yeah, his head is.

[Mal]

That's a lot of boxing. That's a lot of hits. That's a lot of, you know, possible, you know, brain damage and cte, things like that. But I don't want to. I don't want to step on, you know, Like I said, I'm not dismissing it and saying I Don't believe him. But I'm not saying that I fully believe everything that he's saying either. Now, I do love the fact that he spoke about, you know, Tank whooping Devin Haney's ass in a sparring match and they called him out about it and he said he had the footage and he put the footage on his YouTube, like to prove to people that he wasn't lying. So, you know, he has good. He has good credit with saying I have footage and actually providing the footage. Let's say that.

[Rory]

But why? Because I did watch the rest of the clip and I even was going through articles, I couldn't figure out why he was brought. Like, who was he hanging out with. You're like, why, like, was he kidnapped? Like, it just. There wasn't a lot of information that was given for me to be on board, even though I'm usually on board with these type of conspiracies.

[Mal]

Yeah, like, Ryan Garcia to me, is not the A list boxer.

[Rory]

Like, the fact they didn't bring Floyd.

[Mal]

There, like, Tank never been there. It's like, it's so many boxes that's bigger than him. That's, you know, I would think that they would probably try to pull those guys into.

[Rory]

Maybe De La Hoya brought him. Ah, he's not a De La Hoya.

[Mal]

I mean, he looks like him.

[Rory]

Didn't De La Hoya get caught up in some.

[Mal]

He was found cross dressing in the hotel room. You know, getting, getting Hank. Little hanky panky. Yeah, man, get a little, little hanky panky.

[Julian]

The.

[Rory]

Just cross dressing in your hotel room is hilarious.

[Julian]

Dolo.

[Mal]

Okay, try them Cavalli's on kids.

[Julian]

The, the Bohemian Grove. The, the place he said he was taken TO is a 2700 private acre acre campground. It's a gentleman's club. And it's, you know, or the Reagan's, the Nixons, all the, you know, all those people that you would expect very.

[Rory]

Trust, trustworthy people the most.

[Julian]

I mean, trustworthy. They ran our country pretty trustworthy. And you know, it's. Of course, when you're looking at people of this stature, of this caliber, especially in a private land way off in Northern California, they just. There's always been allegations over time of nasty going on with, with children. So that's kind of the basis of the, the location that we're looking at.

[Rory]

Or did he just like, was he going to the gentleman's club just like on his own type of shit and like took a wrong left?

[Julian]

I don't think you can stumble your.

[Rory]

Way he missed the grown woman area.

[Mal]

I don't know, man. I don't. This type of shit, like I said, I believe it. I know it exists, but. Well, I don't know. Like, I've never been. But I'm just saying, I. I'm pretty sure places like this exist. But I just don't understand why Ryan Garcia is choosing now to disclose all of this and why he's doing it. He's saying that he doesn't have his credit cards, he doesn't have access to his Instagram account, but yet he keeps uploading and tweeting from his account. Like, I just don't. I don't know. I don't know. I don't. I don't. I don't know. I think this is. It's great promotion for the fight.

[Rory]

CTE is also a real thing.

[Mal]

CTE's.

[Julian]

He's been boxing since he was seven years old.

[Mal]

Yeah, yeah.

[Julian]

And he looks. Look, I don't want to put drugs on his jacket, but in these, he's doing. It looks like he's got classic signs of someone that's, you know, sniffling, itching, like, twitchy, fidgety, all that shit could be the cte, but.

[Damaris]

But one could say that the CTE or the drugs is what's making him not be so afraid to. To tell the truth. Because you. If something like this happens to you on some elitist shit, usually you keep your mouth closed because you know the dangers that can come with you exposing things like that. But if your brain is fucked up or you're on drugs, then maybe you can forget to not tell the truth.

[Rory]

I mean, I'm going to give the elites more credit than trusting a possible boxer. With CTE and a drug problem into their inner circle. I just think they have better judgment. I don't know if they're picking Ryan Garcia.

[Mal]

And another reason I don't understand, Hunch.

[Rory]

I don't know.

[Mal]

Because now all of a sudden, he's saying he's only talking about boxing from now on. He's only talking about his upcoming fight.

[Rory]

It's a wild thing to say after you say a statement before it's like, bro.

[Mal]

Aight, man, like, so what was all of this shit for?

[Julian]

They were raping children in the ass. But this fight Sunday.

[Mal]

Yeah, but now I'm only talking about my fight. Fuck that fight, man. What is this rape you talking about? Like, talk about that like. I don't give a fuck about a fight. So this is why I can't really, you know, I'm trying to, you know, understand Ryan through this, but it's just like a lot of things is pointing to just 230amateur fights, you know?

[Julian]

Jesus.

[Mal]

I just. I'm just like, all right, maybe now, but now here's the interesting part. The fight with Devin Haney. If he goes on and performs well and wins this fight, then we gotta get back to the shits, Ryan.

[Rory]

But you have to.

[Mal]

You gotta get back to the Grove.

[Julian]

Celebrating the Grove.

[Mal]

Tell us what happened. Show us the. Show us the footage.

[Julian]

Pop bottles.

[Mal]

And don't just show me in, in, in, in, in. In capes and masks and shit. I want to see who's underneath the capes and masks.

[Rory]

I think the more pressure is on whoever is hired for that fight to do post game fight commentary and interviews with each of the fighters in the ring afterwards. Because I don't really particularly care about a right hook after Ryan Garcia said, if I'm in the ring with him and a mic, post game, who's it?

[Mal]

Jim Lampley? Is that his name?

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Julian]

He does the post game, post fight.

[Mal]

I think it's him, right?

[Rory]

He still does it?

[Mal]

I think so, yeah. Jim Lampley still does it, right?

[Rory]

Like, I'm not. I'm not asking about the third round. I'm asking about the children you saw raped. I don't care about this Takate ad below us. What. What about the kids, Ryan?

[Mal]

See, Max Kellerman is the guy for this.

[Julian]

The. God, I miss Max.

[Rory]

Max, yeah.

[Mal]

Max Kellerman is the guy for this.

[Julian]

Joe Rogan would be good at that, too.

[Mal]

Yeah, but Rogan. Rogan. But see you. But see. Cause Rogan is so smart and separate, educated. Like, as soon as Ryan starts talking and you can't. You can't whip Joe Rogan's ass. I see. That's the other part. A lot of these, A lot of these guys that are doing, like, commenting.

[Rory]

Well, the rest of us can't whoop Joe Rogan's ass.

[Mal]

Ryan Garcia cannot interviews. Ryan Garcia cannot whoop Joe Rogan's ass. Let's just put that out there. I'm just letting y'all know that right now, Ryan Garcia cannot whoop Joe Rogan's ass.

[Rory]

He can outbox him.

[Mal]

Whoop his ass. I'm saying. I'm being very specific with my words.

[Rory]

I'm with you. Okay.

[Mal]

Ryan Garcia. Now, Joe Rogan walked up to Ryan Garcia and starts talking to him and starts trying to figure out all of this shit that he's talking about. And then Joe Rogan starts to smell bullshit and he says, ah, I think you're lying. I think. And then Ryan starts talking spicy.

[Julian]

Yeah, he's gonna put the short temper, Ryan.

[Mal]

He could have as short as the tempers. He won. But Joe let me Joe Rogan to kick that nigga in the next Thursday. You ever see Joe Rogan kick?

[Rory]

Like, I've seen Joe Rogan do a comedy set, chug a Bud Light, and then do a crane kick.

[Mal]

So yeah, bro, have you seen Joe Rogan kick? Pull up Joe Rogan kicking a punching bag.

[Rory]

Oh, it's wild.

[Julian]

They said it sounds like gun.

[Mal]

That just sounds like bro.

[Rory]

Every rib is shattered.

[Mal]

Somebody kicking you like that. Like, look at Joe Rogan, bro. Are you kidding me? Somebody kick you like that, you're gonna be for three summers, man, straight.

[Rory]

I don't think you'll ever again.

[Mal]

Yeah, like blood. It's gonna be blood in the toilet bowl.

[Julian]

He and I think financially would probably be better. Not that Joe needs the money, but a better look for him to not have that moment ringside and just have the podcast. Just do that shit in your podcast. Like, yeah.

[Mal]

Oh, I think Rogan definitely already reached out and set it up. Whatever you do, Ryan, don't go to Club Shay.

[Rory]

Shay, with what I was about to say. I was about to say Shannon Sharp might be the best to put in that ring. What about them kids? What about the kids?

[Mal]

What do you mean?

[Damaris]

Shan Sharp is not that great of an interviewer.

[Mal]

I love sh.

[Rory]

Were they being raped in their booty?

[Mal]

Now, Skip, where's Bohemian Grove?

[Damaris]

That was anti black.

[Julian]

That's Shannon Sharp.

[Mal]

I love Shannon Sharp. But Ryan, stay. Don't go. Don't take your ass to Club Shay. Please don't.

[Julian]

Staying on the conspiracy train within the industry. Did you guys see this clip from this comedian, Nima Yamini? He was. He took this video pretty much saying that he was proposed Internet fame and it was. He was in a room with two Hollywood executives and the fellow comedian Matt Rife. And he said that they both had to suck off the executives in order to get the contract.

[Mal]

Nice.

[Julian]

And they had to suck them off simultaneously in that room. Yamini claims that he left the room and Matt stayed well in Matt state. And now you've seen where Matt's right career has gone. So now people are speculating that not only did Matt get his whole face redone, but he also de throated a couple executives in the process.

[Rory]

Again, I'm the conspiracy guy, but I don't believe this. I just.

[Damaris]

Well, why wouldn't you believe it?

[Rory]

It's Too trusting. Like, to just have two regular comics come into your office and you'd be like, yo, suck my dick to get this contract.

[Julian]

I just.

[Rory]

People that are.

[Mal]

Yeah, I don't go like that.

[Rory]

I'm not saying not that trusting.

[Mal]

Now, listen. I'm not saying that some executives don't.

[Rory]

Oh, it happens.

[Mal]

Hang that over people's heads.

[Damaris]

I heard of the whole me too move.

[Mal]

No, no, listen, listen. I get. I'm not saying. I'm just saying I don't think it happens like that.

[Rory]

Yes.

[Mal]

That's all I'm saying. I don't think it goes that way. The way he's saying it went. I don't think that's how it. That's how it goes. That's all I'm saying. It happens for sure. 100. I'm not that we. We don't have any room to. To debate that anymore. We know that it happens, but I just don't think it happens like that.

[Damaris]

So y'all think he a hater?

[Mal]

No, I just think that, you know, I think this is a moment and, you know, metaphor. People are. Metaphor is crazy. And people are just jumping in on for what Rory trying to.

[Rory]

It's the same way Cat Williams said him and Ludacris walked into the same office and. And Luda. Luda sucked the dick and Cat walked out.

[Mal]

Yeah, see that?

[Rory]

It was a metaphor to say that he was with going full industry.

[Mal]

So I saw fast. I saw fast seven. Luda ain't suck no dick to get that role.

[Rory]

Definitely didn't. And if he did, he did a bad, bad job.

[Mal]

We're not gonna put that on.

[Rory]

Head game is whack.

[Mal]

We're not putting that on.

[Julian]

They almost assume, like in. In if these are true.

[Mal]

True.

[Julian]

Let's carry this through. If it's true. Matt Rife went on to sell out an arena tour, which means he must give the firestop of all time. And then Luda Fast Furious series. You're making like 50 million a pop, Firehead. What if you're a guy and you got this proposal and you should. You just give trash head. Do you still get blessed with the career?

[Rory]

But that's another thing too. Like, look.

[Mal]

What Julian's mind.

[Rory]

No, I'm with him, though, because even as the exec, like, I'm pro. I'm asking two straight comedians to suck my dick. They're probably gonna be bad at it. Like, they don't suck dick. What? Like, what's. Where's the fun in that?

[Damaris]

Well, to be fair, they said that men Give the best head because y'all got stronger jaws than us.

[Mal]

Yeah, gay men.

[Rory]

Men that like sucking dick.

[Damaris]

No, all men have stronger jaws than women.

[Mal]

Okay. No, that statement is true.

[Damaris]

That's what I'm saying. They say that men are better at sucking dick whether they're gay or whatever. Whoever's sucking the dicks are better at sucking dick than women because of this jaw structure.

[Julian]

I mean, look at Matt's jaw.

[Rory]

He looks like he probably gets fired.

[Julian]

He probably took both execs at once. Left pocket, right pocket.

[Mal]

He looks like he said, that's it. More.

[Rory]

Give me more.

[Mal]

Who else has a dick in the.

[Julian]

Hallway sucking off the assistance.

[Rory]

I just don't know if an exec is going to put it all on the line to ask a kid that was like, just on Wild N Out to suck his dick to get a contract.

[Mal]

Yeah, that's like.

[Rory]

To what you were saying with the Me too shit. Of course. I think, like, execs sexually harass their secretaries. Like, that's just common, unfortunately, in the workplace. Drastically different. To ask a sort of known comedian to suck my dick to get a contract, like, that's crazy. Like, I just don't see that happening.

[Mal]

Yeah, I. This. This. I know we're in the Ex. What they calling us? The Expose Movement. Exposed Year. Year of Exposing. I don't know. Whatever they're calling it now.

[Rory]

Hell no.

[Mal]

I get it. But a lot of. Like I said, a lot of this that's gonna be coming out is like, y'all it up. Because there's real stories mixed in with a lot of this.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Mal]

And that's the up part.

[Rory]

Didn't we do our London show the same weekend as him?

[Julian]

No, wasn't it was Chappelle. I don't think Matt was out there with us.

[Rory]

His poster was, like, right next to ours in the.

[Julian]

Oh, yes, he was. Yes.

[Rory]

Ah, Accusations on us. How did we get that gig?

[Mal]

Ain't no accusations on us. We know how we got there.

[Julian]

They would have to bring in four execs.

[Mal]

We know how he got that. Now, y'all can go ask somebody. But uta, what they did for us.

[Rory]

To get that gig, I can guarantee you Rich Paul never asked Maul and I to do anything in a meeting or on a Zoom call.

[Mal]

Hell no, we don't. Ain't playing that game over here will die.

[Rory]

Except for when they were like, you guys should do three pods a week. And I said, you can suck my dick.

[Julian]

Reverse head.

[Mal]

Reverse head.

[Rory]

Suck my dick for that third episode.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Higher than a patreon tier. But yeah, I. I don't believe that. And also, like, if you left the room, how do you know what Matt did?

[Mal]

Just because he has a successful career now?

[Rory]

What if. What if he walked out of the room and then the execs were like, joking. You guys are comedians. Haha. Well, he left.

[Damaris]

Well, he left. He's not really down.

[Rory]

No, we don't want you to suck our dick. Here, here's some money. Like, let's.

[Mal]

Let's do the joking. Haha. Lol.

[Julian]

Here's three dates at msg, right?

[Mal]

Sold out already.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

And as someone that like, does believe that there are quote unquote machines that can push a button and get people to superstardom just for some head. And it's like, I'll get you the garden. Like, who is this guy? Yeah, I'd love to meet him.

[Damaris]

It's mad head around.

[Julian]

Honestly, I was gonna say like, his head worth the garden.

[Rory]

And like, is that guy gonna use his MSG favor just for, just for.

[Julian]

Like, for some guy head?

[Rory]

Yeah, guy head.

[Julian]

Not even just like a straight guy guy head.

[Rory]

And I feel like guy head. I feel like the exec that wants head from comedians to then push the button and get them sold out weeks in. MSG isn't like scouring through wild n out footage to find talent.

[Mal]

You know how trusting you got to be to put your dick in a mouth that doesn't really want to suck it?

[Rory]

You make a very fair point.

[Mal]

You know how crazy that is?

[Rory]

You make a fair point.

[Mal]

You want this role. Yo, give me head. And he's like, all right, you. And you actually back it out. I wish one of you would. I'll come out that office with two dicks in my hand. Wait, all you execs? Hell yeah.

[Rory]

So that means you'd put a dick in your mouth.

[Julian]

You're mad gay and you didn't get the role.

[Mal]

That. Imagine that though. But imagine, imagine when a be like, yo, he made me suck his dick. What? What you mean he made you suck?

[Rory]

It called raping.

[Mal]

That don't even sound without a gun. Nobody can't make you suck their dick without a gun, bro.

[Damaris]

Who can make you a man if you're a man? Please leave.

[Mal]

If you're a man. If you're a man. If you're a man and a dude says, yo, give me some head.

[Rory]

Oh, even with the gun, I don't think you can get me to do it.

[Mal]

I'm dead.

[Damaris]

If you want to die, you gotta kill me.

[Rory]

Because the moment, like, I would put My mouth on the dick. I would look up, be like, just pull the trigger.

[Mal]

At this point, bro, you gotta kill me.

[Julian]

Getting shot with a dick in your mouth is crazy.

[Rory]

Because what if the bullet goes through and I shoot my dickhead?

[Mal]

Hey, if I die with a dick in my mouth, y'all don't gotta cut in my feelings.

[Damaris]

No, I didn't plan on it.

[Mal]

Yeah. Y ain't got to come. Y'all could just stay home and just laugh like, yo, this mall went out crazy. He had a dick in his mouth. Like, what the.

[Damaris]

Cuz, you know they gotta leave you there until forensics come.

[Mal]

That's cra. And the niggas got the photos. You know for sure one of these podcast that don't like me gonna get a hand on them photos.

[Rory]

I'm gonna get a hand on them.

[Mal]

They can't wait.

[Rory]

That'll be a whole separate tier.

[Mal]

Patreon. My forensic crime scene.

[Julian]

Yeah. Dinner with Jay and then forensics with mall.

[Mal]

That's the. Look where his head is at. That's crazy. I wish somebody would try to force me to give them head, though.

[Julian]

Can we do that for a skit? That'd be fun.

[Rory]

I just.

[Mal]

That's why I don't believe I didn't.

[Rory]

See the blocking on that sketch.

[Mal]

Small hat.

[Rory]

How do you want to light that?

[Mal]

How do you want to light it? Where are we shooting at? Hey, Ral, where are we shooting that at? That.

[Rory]

And I already don't like my odds in this sketch because the. It's a duo, so there's only one roll left.

[Mal]

Yo, that's crazy.

[Julian]

Yeah, you got to be the.

[Rory]

Yeah, it would be my dick.

[Mal]

What?

[Rory]

Huh?

[Damaris]

Yo, gay.

[Rory]

You aren't gay.

[Damaris]

I've been letting y'all get y off, but y'all are gay. As against.

[Mal]

I'm against it. That make me gay.

[Rory]

And I'm the aggressor. I'm more of the masculine one.

[Mal]

But you're still gay, though. No.

[Rory]

You're good for sucking dick. I'm just getting my dick sucked.

[Mal]

How? I said I wouldn't do that. I would never do no like that. You crazy. Kill me. Give me death. I take death.

[Julian]

Grave heart over here.

[Mal]

Give me death. Kill me.

[Julian]

All right, mel Gibson.

[Rory]

Kill 100.

[Mal]

Give me death. Are you kidding me?

[Rory]

And that's not homophobic. Shouts everyone that can do it. It's just something that I'm just not a. I've never tried and failed. It's just something I know.

[Mal]

I.

[Damaris]

There's my real eaters out there who.

[Julian]

Well, could you imagine if you. If you were a guy, shout out to who?

[Damaris]

All my dick suckers. All the real eaters out there.

[Mal]

Why are you shouting out dick? Because he.

[Damaris]

He shouted them out first.

[Mal]

I don't think Rory did that.

[Rory]

I didn't, but shout out to.

[Mal]

We're not shouting out dick suckers.

[Rory]

You don't like to get your dick sucked by women?

[Mal]

Yes.

[Damaris]

I never said yes. Male and women.

[Mal]

Oh, I thought you. Oh, see, you didn't say that.

[Damaris]

Suckers. I just said all the people who suck dick.

[Mal]

No, you said.

[Rory]

I think it's funny that you keep doing this when you say that.

[Mal]

You said. Okay, well, you did say dick.

[Julian]

I feel like their hand sign should be different for who go to Rory.

[Mal]

That's sick.

[Rory]

No, I'm just doing a dance. That's.

[Julian]

That's good.

[Mal]

What was that dance? What was that dance called? You know what that's called?

[Rory]

Dick sucking dance.

[Mal]

The dick sucking dance.

[Julian]

It's a TikTok challenge.

[Rory]

I love immaturity.

[Mal]

Do we have another voicemail?

[Rory]

Oh, do we want to get into this Nelly topic or do that on Patreon?

[Mal]

Nelly ain't writing none of his raps. I don't want to get into nothing.

[Rory]

Nelly, I'm with you broke my heart once.

[Mal]

You ain't write your raps. What are we talking about?

[Rory]

That came and went. We owe Drake an apology because there was proof that Nelly didn't write anything, and we just moved on to the next day.

[Mal]

Well, because Nelly isn't currently active in putting out music, so that's why people didn't really.

[Damaris]

Was it proof that he didn't write anything or that he didn't write some of his hit songs?

[Rory]

Good majority. A great.

[Julian]

It was like most of country grammar, right?

[Rory]

Pretty much, yeah.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Great album and a lot of Nellyville as well.

[Mal]

That kind of broke my heart. I'm gonna keep it a hundred. Oh, for me, it definitely did because Nelly was. He was like the. He was a. He was a star. So for to hear that he didn't write a lot of those. And then on. And then on the crew the. That was writing it. At least take care of the bros that wrote the yes. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, at least let them be well off and they. Anybody living life comfortable. Like, then it's like, okay, it. It was a collab because then we can call it a collaborative effort, but when you the only still lit and the homies are sitting down with Vlad telling their stories. And I feel.

[Rory]

I mean, he sort of tried because He. He put the Saint lunatics on like kind of immediately. Just the specific guy that was really writing most of it. I don't think he looked out for it the best. Like Murphy Lee was hot for a minute.

[Mal]

Yeah, he was.

[Rory]

He tried.

[Mal]

Yeah, I guess.

[Rory]

But just not giving you a man publishing that wrote everything is fucking nuts.

[Mal]

So that's what I'm speaking to. I'm like in that part of it. That's the wild part. But fuck it. Yes. Let's listen to what Nelly had to say. He was on the episode of the Shop. So let's hear what he was talking about. When I put out songs, I had to go against DMX. True.

[Rory]

Jay Z.

[Mal]

True.

[Rory]

Eminem, Lil Wayne.

[Mal]

True.

[Rory]

50 Cent.

[Mal]

True.

[Rory]

Loda.

[Mal]

True. Nah.

[Rory]

All of us are fighting.

[Mal]

Yeah. For one spot. So in from two, from 99 to like 2008, 10. It's the hardest era ever to give juicing up.

[Rory]

I mean, he didn't have to deal with Taylor Swift though.

[Damaris]

I mean, honestly, that's a fact.

[Rory]

No, he has a. He has a point though. I fully agree with Nelly here. That era, when it came to mainstream rap was the most difficult to compete.

[Mal]

No, Nelly was a bonafide star, a pop star for sure.

[Rory]

He left out Kanye. That was towards the end, but he still had to compete with Kanye.

[Mal]

Yeah, very true. But Nelly, without a doubt, his run, what he was able to do with his first few albums, legendary. We haven't seen many people come from rap and do what Nelly was able to do. Sell amount of records he was able to sell, have the. The hit records that he had. He even had a cool little country.

[Rory]

Record at one point with Tim McGraw.

[Mal]

Yeah, that was a beautiful song. Yeah.

[Rory]

And what's It Ride with Me? What was on Country Grammar. There's another country song in there. That's great.

[Julian]

The over and over was the Tim McGraw record.

[Rory]

That record.

[Julian]

That was a good song.

[Rory]

It's a great song.

[Julian]

I'm thinking about it over and over. That was a suit album.

[Rory]

Pull up rap albums in 1998. I think that was the year of which one? That was just crazy.

[Julian]

I mean. Here you go. Black Star Equamini 400° Volume 2, Capital.

[Mal]

Punishment, Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood and It's Dark and Hell is Hot.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Yeah, this was a tough year.

[Mal]

Capital punishment, miseducation.

[Rory]

Yeah, 98 was a tough year, but obviously doesn't count as like an era. Whereas Nelly had to do that for like seven years. He had to compete with all those guys.

[Mal]

The locks.

[Julian]

Yeah, that that run, that early 2000s run was very difficult for hip hop.

[Rory]

I mean, I, I even like the.

[Mal]

How, you know, outside.

[Julian]

I was a consumer.

[Mal]

It was six.

[Julian]

No.

[Mal]

How were you in 98?

[Rory]

Six and a half.

[Julian]

98. I was. Yes. Six and a half, six and three quarters.

[Mal]

You were not a consumer in 98. Shut the up. See, that's what's wrong with this new generation.

[Rory]

He did his chores and I was a consumer.

[Mal]

No, you were not.

[Julian]

Okay, mall, but I still listen to music.

[Mal]

You were not listening to Capital Punishment.

[Julian]

I was outside.

[Mal]

You was not outside. What the are you talking about?

[Julian]

I'm gonna say that you won.

[Damaris]

Okay, I also was not. I was 4, but I also was not. Yeah, but also I was because my dad was a dj, but I know you weren't listening to that.

[Mal]

I was in high school, trying to avoid the bloods cutting my face every Friday.

[Rory]

I. I stole that. Pain is like my cousin's Volume 2, and he purchased it in like 99.

[Mal]

How old was you?

[Rory]

I was 8.

[Julian]

Where was 8?

[Rory]

I was listening to Volume 2 at 9 years old. I'm positive.

[Mal]

No.

[Rory]

Swear to God.

[Mal]

Hell no.

[Rory]

The first album, I. I didn't buy it. Obviously.

[Mal]

You didn't listen to volume 2 in 98. Maybe I wasn't listening to the 1.

[Rory]

To the B sides, but. But yeah, I was listening to volume two in 99. I'm. I'm positive because I've went through this with my older cousins.

[Mal]

Was I listening to rap at 9 years old?

[Rory]

Rap wasn't as mainstream when you were 9 as it was for me. Yeah, I was listening to more money, more problems on the radio when I was 7. It wasn't by choice, but it was mainstream music.

[Mal]

That's crazy.

[Julian]

The radio we had, I wasn't like.

[Rory]

Dissecting it, like, you know, oh, I really feel what he's saying. The more money you get.

[Mal]

Yeah, you couldn't relate to it.

[Rory]

No, but it was. It was part of my childhood.

[Mal]

I mean, I guess I was. I was listening to. I guess I was listening to rap at 7, 8, 9 years old. For sure. I was. I was listening to Ice Cube, NWA.

[Rory]

Like, you don't think a nine year old was listening to an Annie Sample.

[Mal]

Yeah, I get it. I just had to think about what was I doing at a nine. And I definitely was.

[Rory]

I wasn't like listening to a week ago and was like, damn, he snitched.

[Damaris]

Damn, snitched.

[Rory]

Like, no, I was listening to Hard Knock Life.

[Mal]

It's crazy to think that I've been listening to, like, a part of the culture this long.

[Rory]

Oh, and Money Cash Hoes we loved because it had so much cursing.

[Damaris]

Money Cash Hoes is still one of my favorite Jayz to this day.

[Mal]

Damn, y'all was so young, man.

[Rory]

Oh, money ain't a thing. I was definitely listening to at 9, for sure.

[Julian]

More money volume 3. I went amongst the kids with my mom.

[Mal]

That was everywhere.

[Rory]

That was my birthday presentation present. Like, I went. It was to get Volume three, and then I convinced my dad to get me. And there was.

[Mal]

For your birthday present, you got Volume three.

[Rory]

Yeah, but, like, I asked my mom to go get it.

[Mal]

That's sick.

[Rory]

And convinced my dad to get me. And there was X. Got two CDs.

[Julian]

Damn.

[Mal]

Your parents actually bought that music for you?

[Julian]

White Privilege.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Y'all had to sneak. I keep telling you, I had to sneak. Oh, they were the editor to listen to Doggy Style. The Doggy Style Snoop Source album. I had to sneak. I had to listen to that in my room on my Walkman with the volume on low so I could hear my mom if she was coming to my door. So my mind, this is Snoop I'm talking about.

[Rory]

I still, like, you know, you took your CDs and put them onto your itunes. Like, I still have in my itunes the edited version of Volume three. And there was X. They bought me the edited version. Now, speaking of Nelly, I had my cousin buy me the Country Grammar album Explicit, and my mom caught me listening to the second song. Like, you can find me. I've got jobs, some say. Others just smoke all day. My mom snapped the CD in half in two seconds. Snapped it in half. I was like, I have, like, trauma.

[Mal]

That was banging. Why you do that? That was thumping like he was getting it.

[Rory]

Oh, I was so disappointed.

[Mal]

That's crazy to think that our parents didn't want us to listen to this music. And now Snoop is, like, one of my mom's favorite people in the world.

[Julian]

But it's crazy because, like, if you listen to R and B, like, when I was young, my dad was always, like, playing, like, you know, the Isley Brothers and that kind of, like, the lyrics and that records are just as vulgar. They're just over. Like, they're just over. More peaceful.

[Rory]

Listen, I can totally understand it when you're a kid.

[Mal]

I could play Snoop's whole Doggy Style album right now and play one of these new little Young Drill album right now, and that will make the Doggy Style album sound like it's a peace treat.

[Julian]

Like a.

[Rory]

A peace treat.

[Julian]

Yeah. Sounds like a. I don't know, preschool.

[Mal]

It sounds like a. It would make it sound like a. A. A UN meeting.

[Rory]

Ain't no fun unless the homies have. Something's essentially about gang rape.

[Mal]

Yeah, I get it. But in the way he said it.

[Rory]

He was only 19.

[Mal]

Now these young will say, yo, let my man.

[Rory]

And these girls are like, bet that.

[Mal]

Well, that part too. But it's just a. It's just crazy to think that YouTube.

[Rory]

Had to earn it.

[Mal]

The. The music that had to put parental advisory on. On the. On the cd. Now the content of some of these new artists in their albums is like. Is way worse than that was like. I'm talking about. It's not even close.

[Rory]

I don't know Eminem. I shouldn't have been listening to Slim or Marshall Mathers LP when I was 11. I knew every. Every word.

[Mal]

Well, yeah, that was a different type of content for you young white kids. That was like.

[Rory]

We felt seen.

[Mal]

Yeah, that was y'all leader.

[Rory]

My mom.

[Mal]

Yeah, my mom.

[Rory]

Fucking make me clean my fucking room. It's my room.

[Mal]

Julian, just shut up. Just don't. Just shut up.

[Julian]

I'm not gonna go down that road. Yeah, just shut up. Just empowered. Every white kid that hated their mother.

[Mal]

He went just like this. As soon as I say Eminem is.

[Damaris]

Fist balled up like Arthur.

[Mal]

Like, yo, chill, bro. I understand you don't like Eminem, but.

[Rory]

Julian Kim is a beautiful R B love song, though.

[Damaris]

Yeah, Julian's Julian's point about R and B being, like, worse. Because I remember my dad was a dj. He was obsessed with rap. He played a lot of rap in the house. So I never. I never had to go buy the CDs. I always had them in my house. Like DMX growing up. DMX, Jay Z, they were my favorite artists because they were my dad's favorite artist. He played them so much, but he put me. I remember being obsessed with Britney Spears and he said, oh, no, you're not gonna worship, like, mid white woman. Like, here, here's Janet Jackson. You can go become obsessed with Janet Jackson. But at 7 years old, the shit that I was listening to, listening to Janet talk about, affected me way more than. And then there was X or fucking.

[Rory]

That's why you had a three album, 21.

[Damaris]

Probably like real shit. I had no business listening to that. And I don't think he. You know how when you hear singles from artists, you don't really pay attention to, like, the lyrics like that. He wasn't. I was listening to the B sides and the deep cuts. And I don't think he knew just how vulgar that fucking music was when.

[Rory]

It came to like sexually explicit lyrics. Puberty was way bigger of a factor when it came to me than listening to music about now. Misogyny, yeah, definitely was taught to me through music for sure. Like I was just trying to. Why was I thinking get money at 14? Like, she's just a hoe. She's 14. It's like, why am I viewing a woman that way at 14 years old?

[Julian]

I feel like music for me did last.

[Rory]

I have a minimum wage job and that woman is just discovering her body. Body.

[Julian]

South park was way more of an influence on me in a negative way in terms of like, you know, racial jokes and all that. South park was so much more influential.

[Damaris]

You are a walking south park extra.

[Mal]

Yeah, now that you say that, I can. I could see it.

[Julian]

I still love South Park. Like the new they've been putting. They signed like a billion dollar contract. They're still pumping out content, but it's. It's still great. But yeah, south park was big for me when I was a kid and I couldn't watch it at home for a while. But my older cousin, when we would go to their house, he was allowed to watch it. He's like eight years older than I was and I would just watch it with him and then just repeat every joke and it was just the most fucked up shit.

[Mal]

You are south park, baby.

[Julian]

It's great.

[Mal]

I see it.

[Julian]

Shitty walk.

[Rory]

Like you dressed as Mr. Hankey for Halloween.

[Julian]

That's crazy.

[Mal]

Because you do.

[Julian]

That's racist.

[Rory]

Why I didn't see you dressed as Chef is.

[Julian]

This is Mr. Hanky was a Christmas. Mr. Hanke was a piece of that lived.

[Damaris]

That lived in anti black world.

[Julian]

He lived in a Jewish kid's toilet.

[Rory]

Only black people. Why is this racist?

[Julian]

Rory said I look like a piece of in a racist way. Not like in a dress way.

[Damaris]

Oh.

[Rory]

I mean, if my racism directed just at Julian and him only not to a whole race of people, right?

[Damaris]

Oh, okay.

[Mal]

All right, cool. I mean, I didn't feel like you were talking about my people.

[Rory]

No.

[Julian]

Oh, okay, well, in that case that's fine.

[Rory]

Actually, people in general, I'm not talking about just one person. Mr. Hank, that piece of over there.

[Damaris]

Do you south park or Family Guy?

[Julian]

That's not even close.

[Rory]

South park, seriously?

[Mal]

I don't know, man. Yeah, they.

[Damaris]

They bugging.

[Rory]

I love Family Guy, but.

[Mal]

Yeah, but you answered that too quick. That's like with the marriage. When I said Brent when I Said Brent or. Or Bryson.

[Julian]

Bryson.

[Mal]

Yeah, the marriage answered that way too.

[Damaris]

You know what? I think I honestly was thinking about which one I would honestly. But music wise.

[Rory]

Yeah, it is like you honestly.

[Mal]

I respect that. But why we just can't be just. Just music.

[Damaris]

Oh, okay. I just thought if I go to ask you about two bad bitches. Your first mind. You ain't going to. Oh, who does the better hook?

[Mal]

Do they sing?

[Rory]

Yeah. What are we talking about?

[Mal]

Who wears a better bikini? Dreya. Like, what the fuck you want me to say? Like. But I was talking about Brent or Bryson as far as, like, their music, and you answered that too fast.

[Damaris]

If I say Rihanna or Beyonce, the first thing you gonna think is, damn. Like, who really gets me up and moving? Like, no, that wasn't what the. He was gonna.

[Rory]

If you said Rihanna or Beyonce. Their looks or who. I would honestly is not the first thing I'm thinking of. I'm thinking you're at all music.

[Julian]

Well, because they're also extremely talented.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Julian]

I feel like they've.

[Damaris]

Bryson ain't released the album in years.

[Julian]

Yeah. See Bryce still on tour. Oh, she's been disrespecting this. He's still on tour.

[Damaris]

I love. I picked Bryson and I love his new song. That Whatever She Wants song is literally engraved in my.

[Mal]

Oh, my. Every time I open my Instagram, one of you chicks got that song.

[Rory]

I'm excited for. For Bryson's come back.

[Mal]

Damn, I'm exc.

[Damaris]

Piss me off somehow she still get whatever she want. That was a soliloquy.

[Mal]

That wasn't a soliloquy. That was a trick trying to cover his PTSD of him losing a girl to a. That got more money than him. That's all.

[Rory]

Isn't he going through, like, a divorce? I don't think it's because I think.

[Damaris]

They might still be together. She posted on Tick Tock, dancing to the song and mouthing it.

[Mal]

The other day, he tore her ass.

[Rory]

Apart on that Keanu Laday album.

[Mal]

Oh, I thought she was about to go somewhere else. I was say, how do you know that?

[Rory]

That I'm sure he his wife, but that's not what I said.

[Mal]

I was like, well, how do you have that.

[Rory]

I think they have a child.

[Mal]

How do you have that information? Like, whoa.

[Rory]

No, his verse on Keanu the Days Quietly was one of my favorite verses last year. And he tore his wife apart on that.

[Mal]

That record.

[Rory]

That must have been an awkward, like, mixing session if she was there.

[Damaris]

I doubt it.

[Mal]

I doubt his new record is. Dope though.

[Damaris]

I love that.

[Rory]

Yeah, I'm excited, but I just.

[Damaris]

I'm excited for him. Everybody was talking about him because in the video, you know, when I first heard the song and then saw the video, he had, like, a ski mask on the entire video. There's strippers all over, and everybody just kind of had the same. Everybody was just like, this isn't you. Like, why are you doing this? Why are you acting like a drill rapper? And then. But the song, though, like, come on now. You never gonna go wrong on Instagram telling bitches they could get whatever they want. That's just the hook. Whatever she want.

[Julian]

That's fucking classic.

[Damaris]

Automatic. Classic.

[Mal]

Whatever she want. Women don't want to do shit. What y'all want to do? Like, what? As women, what do y'all want to do? Like, what is your. What is your goal every day? If you could do something every day of your life, what would it be?

[Rory]

They want children.

[Julian]

Sleep.

[Damaris]

It would literally sleep. Wake up, cook. Have sex with my husband. Sleep. Go out with my friends. Have lemon drop martinis. Sleep. Read a book.

[Julian]

Sounds awful.

[Rory]

Could you do that for more than a month?

[Mal]

No.

[Julian]

No.

[Damaris]

I could do that every day of my life.

[Mal]

No, you cannot.

[Rory]

You'd get bored.

[Mal]

You would fucking kill yourself in two months doing that every day.

[Damaris]

Let's do an experiment.

[Rory]

I can't. I can't go on a vacation for more than four days because I'm like, I want to go home.

[Damaris]

Let's try it out. No, literally.

[Mal]

Well, it depends on where you at. If I'm on a beach, I can stay.

[Damaris]

I'll go away, and I'll go do all of that for three months. Let's see if I can.

[Mal]

You'll get married in three months?

[Julian]

Yes.

[Damaris]

I figure it out now.

[Julian]

Go ahead. What you figure out? What's the sign?

[Mal]

What you need to get paid for. You don't know how to spend no money.

[Damaris]

No.

[Rory]

You have you married now. That's your responsibility, not us.

[Damaris]

See, that's not the experiment. Y'all don't want to put in on the experiment.

[Mal]

So you want to get paid to get fucked? To get fucked and sleep and cook.

[Rory]

It's called an escort.

[Damaris]

Escorts don't cook.

[Julian]

If you pay enough, you pay them to leave.

[Mal]

I'm like, here's 1500. Make me some chicken wings, fried rice. They'd be like, okay, I'll go get it.

[Damaris]

I was like, what escort service you using?

[Julian]

Atlanta.

[Mal]

Instagram. Fuck it.

[Rory]

That's a good one.

[Mal]

That's the best one. Instagram?

[Rory]

Yeah. Link in Bio.

[Damaris]

I think that that's so unfair, because if you guys had the opportunity to. Not. If you didn't have to work, what would you. If you didn't have to work, if money was not an option, what would you do?

[Mal]

Probably find something to work at.

[Rory]

Go be a fly on the wall studio.

[Mal]

You got to find something to do. You can't just spend your every day sleeping, eating. Sleeping, eating.

[Damaris]

I said reading. I said hanging out with my.

[Mal]

Whoa. Okay. Reading. Throw reading in there.

[Damaris]

Yes, Reading, cooking.

[Rory]

I would say do a lot of family.

[Damaris]

Hanging with my friends.

[Rory]

I would still. If I hit the lotto for a billion dollars, I would still podcast.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Probably not the same clip that we do, but I would definitely still podcast.

[Damaris]

You would still podcast if you hit the lotto for a billion dollars.

[Rory]

100.

[Julian]

I would.

[Mal]

I would.

[Julian]

That.

[Rory]

That's when that's, like, voicing my opinion on and talking to people.

[Mal]

That's when podcasting becomes really rid of the edit buttons.

[Rory]

Oh, no. We would. It'd be four red cameras right here. We'd look amazing.

[Mal]

This would be. This would look like the Wire. You kidding me?

[Rory]

I'm, like, even higher.

[Mal]

We'll get six red cameras and two drones in this.

[Rory]

Having a drone above you for a whole pod would be hilarious.

[Mal]

We gonna make. We gonna turn this into a motion.

[Julian]

An aerial angle is.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

I would get James Cameron to direct with Rel.

[Mal]

Man. We'll be shooting at the. At the Taj Mahal, all kind of.

[Damaris]

Y'all wouldn't want to, like, go to Africa, maybe, like, help all of that schools. Go to Cuba, help build hospitals. Like, you wouldn't.

[Mal]

Let's do all of that. Let's sit down and talk about it.

[Rory]

I like the sentiment. I just don't know if I'm the person that should build the hospital hospitals.

[Mal]

Well, I wouldn't be.

[Rory]

I don't have much experience.

[Mal]

Yeah, I would. I would get with a company and try to facilitate that.

[Rory]

Well, yeah, I donate crossing.

[Damaris]

No, I don't need you laying cement.

[Rory]

My judgment is clearly not that good.

[Damaris]

But you would go there and you.

[Rory]

Would, you know, help put my faith in Wyclef.

[Mal]

Oh, yeah. Wycliffe got your money. He bought a new motorcycle with your.

[Rory]

Money and didn't buy pants.

[Mal]

No. Baby oil Speedos, yo.

[Julian]

Find out your money went to baby oil. And speed up. That would be so tight.

[Mal]

That's where it's going.

[Rory]

I'm gonna audit TLC.

[Mal]

The group.

[Rory]

I want my $10 back.

[Mal]

What?

[Rory]

10?

[Mal]

Like, the group Army?

[Julian]

That's a 3% of you talking.

[Mal]

Why?

[Rory]

Because they did a. A GoFundMe for their album and reached like a million dollars and never put it out.

[Mal]

Oh, okay. Yeah, I do remember that.

[Damaris]

No, maybe that. Maybe that wasn't enough.

[Julian]

Why don't we do that strategy for your next project? Start a GoFundMe.

[Mal]

Me, I don't know, because you would.

[Julian]

Put out an album, but you can't do.

[Rory]

Ask listeners for enough. As far as Patreon and merch. I want you to fun. So I'm gonna go take. I'm gonna go take a check from STEM for a recording budget, but ask money from the fans.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Julian]

Have them match it.

[Mal]

Government does it all the time.

[Rory]

I wish I was a scumbag. I wish I had an scumbag because that is really a viable option. Like, I could go. Nobody would know if I really took a full recording budget of a quarter million dollars. And then people would have faith in me to do some type of crowdfunded thing for my album. I feel you not knowing that I just went and grabbed a quarter million for it. Yeah, I wish I was a scumbag. Meanwhile, I'm putting out affordable slides.

[Mal]

That's just not. I can't do shit.

[Rory]

My fleece is $80.

[Mal]

I can't take advantage of people. I just can't. I feel whack.

[Julian]

Like, it's only 3%.

[Mal]

I feel whack. It's just something internal. I'm just like that. That's corny. Yeah, like, taking advantage. It's just. It's. It's corny. That's why when I see people do it, I'm just like. And sometimes I'm like, damn, I wish I had some of that in me, like, to be like that. Because I do think you need a certain level of scumbagism to get to certain levels.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Mal]

But I. I just can't. Like, it's certain shit. I'm just like, nah, I can't do that, bro.

[Julian]

Bro.

[Mal]

Like, I've been offered to do some. Not suck no dick, but to do some crazy to come up on some money. And I'm just like, ah, that's corny. That's. First of all, it catches up to you.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Number one, you might get it off now, two, three years. Like, all right, it's cool. You gonna get an email?

[Rory]

It only. It only catches up to mid level scumbags. Elite scumbags are doing fine. It'll never catch up to them.

[Mal]

Yeah, but I'm not one of the elitists.

[Rory]

I. Well, I think, yeah, like maybe in when they die and go to hell with me. Whatever you think hell is, then it'll catch up with them. But it's only mid level scumbags where that karma really catches you in real time.

[Mal]

I was watching something the scientist was saying that life. Y'all know I always say this is a simulation. And he basically said this is pretty much he's on the side of this life experience being assimilation. Like somebody is controlling all of this.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

We're in somebody else's video game world. Yeah, Bill Gates maybe.

[Rory]

I wish I would scumbag enough to like create a disease because I have stock in a company that's going to create the vaccine.

[Mal]

Oh yeah, that's big scumbag.

[Rory]

Like I wish, I wish that's when.

[Mal]

Others come back look at you. Like, oh, he's on a roll. How he came up with that one.

[Rory]

Like I'm just spitballing here. Like I wish I could fly a plan into a building because I own half of Halliburton. Just a random just throwing out.

[Julian]

It's like what Pelosi did with her. Her husband who's a. He's in construction and he was getting all these covered contracts for these properties because she was feeding them the.

[Rory]

So like government.

[Julian]

Yeah, no, I was just like a. That's like a list.

[Damaris]

Like I don't think that's scumbag.

[Julian]

Yeah, it's illegal. Okay.

[Damaris]

Just because something is illegal doesn't make it. I don't think that scumbag is holding.

[Julian]

A very high office in the government and that's an illegal activity. Like that's illegal.

[Rory]

She put.

[Julian]

And then she got all good high.

[Rory]

Ground because like if I'm Hunter Biden, I'm doing everything under bodies. My dad is Joe Biden. Yeah. I'm gonna go to China and use his name.

[Mal]

Well, they.

[Julian]

They send him there to get him the out of the country because they knew how much of a danger he was here. That's how you know you're that big of a scumbag. If you look what their activity is here is children and like doing all these sacrifice ceremony. You're not even welcome there because that's how crazy you are. Yeah, you can't just chill and kids, bro, you gotta do heroin and like do all this other weird.

[Rory]

Yeah, the crackhead up the vibe at the child. Come on.

[Julian]

The kid. Why are you doing all the crack, yo?

[Mal]

No, how about just do the crack and not the kid?

[Rory]

Yeah, I'm with that.

[Julian]

No, because he's in the circle, dude. You're born into that.

[Mal]

I grew up a lot around a lot of crackheads and Biden access.

[Rory]

It was throwing an intervention for somebody when you children crazy.

[Julian]

But the intervention is. Put the pipe down only fuck kids. Change your ways.

[Rory]

This is getting out of hand, sir. Your behavior is affecting all of us.

[Julian]

Just the kids. Stop doing crap.

[Rory]

The rules that you have to be sober to walk into the kid party is to event stubber.

[Mal]

And if you try not to look, they force you to look.

[Rory]

And you can fight.

[Mal]

And I'm a boxer.

[Rory]

Who held down ryan Garcia?

[Julian]

Mitch McConnell.

[Rory]

Who was. Because I don't think the elites are in shape.

[Mal]

No, it was Rogan. Rogan held him down with one leg.

[Rory]

How did he get that Spotify contrast?

[Mal]

He stood on his back to stay there and look and enjoy.

[Rory]

Take this dmt.

[Mal]

Give it.

[Julian]

Give it.

[Mal]

Ryan Garcia better win this fight. I know that. All this shit he stirred up. If he go in there, Devin Haney, knock his ass out, man. Pack Ryan Garcia up, man. So he gotta win this fight.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Rory]

How did he leave the compound?

[Mal]

The Bahamian Grove?

[Julian]

Yeah, like, how did.

[Rory]

How did he leave?

[Julian]

How do you leave?

[Mal]

Grace called Uber Black.

[Rory]

Like, did he actually check out? Where'd he put his room key?

[Mal]

No, he just left. You never check out.

[Julian]

He nutted.

[Mal]

But.

[Rory]

When did they stop restraining you?

[Mal]

When it was over.

[Rory]

Okay, Go about your day.

[Mal]

Yeah, tell them. They won't believe you. You know that type of. Who's gonna believe you now?

[Rory]

We're in.

[Damaris]

Ma from the New Roma podcast.

[Mal]

I didn't say. See? No, I didn't say I don't believe him. I said I'm not sure if I believe him, but I'm not. I'm also not sure if I don't believe.

[Rory]

Like, they just let him go. Like, hey, there's a ride share on the other side of the compound.

[Mal]

Yeah, you got to call it. Uber there and meet them over there and they'll come pick you up.

[Damaris]

Not.

[Mal]

Not like the shuttle that leaves every three minutes. Imagine the shuttle leaving the Bahamian Grove. Everybody on the shuttle, quiet. After seeing what they just saw, it's like leaving Vegas. And you didn't hit.

[Julian]

No, you hit, but then you still get like that post nut clarity of like. That's. Damn. That was kind of fucked up.

[Mal]

It's terrible. Vegas is. Yo. Vegas is so somebody designed Vegas with the intent to destroy anybody that came to that city.

[Damaris]

I want to go to Vegas before I turn 30.

[Mal]

No, you don't. Trust me.

[Julian]

You want to go this month?

[Rory]

Yeah. It was like Tomorrow.

[Mal]

Trust me.

[Damaris]

Well, that was something I wanted to do. Obviously it's too late, but I do.

[Mal]

Want to go to Vegas. Listen to me.

[Rory]

You're not a Vegas person.

[Mal]

Listen to me. You're not. You do.

[Damaris]

You don't sleep. That's not for me.

[Rory]

I slept great.

[Mal]

Why are you not listening to me?

[Damaris]

Okay, I'm sorry. Go ahead.

[Mal]

You do not want to go to Las Vegas.

[Damaris]

Why not? I want to have a hangover night.

[Mal]

You do not. You can have a hangover in Manhattan.

[Damaris]

No, I mean like a hang. Like I want to, like, have a tiger in the bathroom.

[Mal]

No, you don't.

[Julian]

You get that in Manhattan.

[Rory]

Bronx Zoo, Harlem.

[Mal]

Ming. Ming. The tiger they took out of the project.

[Rory]

That's true. Yeah.

[Mal]

You know, I mean, people thought I was lying about that.

[Julian]

They took the tiger out of the projects.

[Mal]

Yeah. Ming.

[Julian]

Ming.

[Rory]

Racism.

[Mal]

Yeah. Somebody had had it since she was young, and then she obviously started feeding and got too big.

[Rory]

Always taking resources out the hood.

[Damaris]

Yeah, a tiger being the resource in the hood. I mean, they need books and computers for sure.

[Rory]

If you find another tiger and they have tiger babies, like, that's generational wealth.

[Damaris]

Who's setting up the type? Where are the tigers? Not in my apartment. Where are the tigers?

[Mal]

Him.

[Rory]

You. There's crazier things happening in the projects than two tigers. Just.

[Julian]

Yo, Rip. To Ming.

[Damaris]

Oh, he died?

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Julian]

Damn, that's sad.

[Mal]

Had to. Had to kill Ming.

[Julian]

A part time taxi cab owner owned him.

[Rory]

Wait, they have like, memorial in, in St. Nick. Like, where is that? Is that in Hamilton Park?

[Mal]

It's in Ohio, right? No, Minnesota.

[Rory]

Nah, he from Harlem. That's crazy.

[Damaris]

So football back.

[Rory]

He was getting it in Ohio.

[Mal]

Well, you ain't bury him in the Bronx, man.

[Damaris]

But ma, as far as Vegas, like, so you say, I mean, you would never go because you don't drink, but I hear that, like, 48 hours in Vegas is enough.

[Julian]

Way too much.

[Mal]

48. That's saying that says something. That's saying something.

[Julian]

That's more than enough.

[Mal]

If 48 hours in the city, if they say your 48 hours in Vegas is enough, that means that 48 hours is going to feel like a week and a half.

[Julian]

Yeah, it does that.

[Mal]

Vegas is terrible. I'm telling you. Yo, you know what it is to walk to your room and you walk past people at like slot machines and, and, and poker tables and shit like that? You go upstairs, you get eight, nine hours of sleep, get dressed, go back down, and you still see them same niggas sitting there.

[Julian]

Yeah, it's not like the Casino Royale crowd. It's not like a James Bond movie. It's just sad. People that have like piss buckets.

[Mal]

Yeah. You feel like, yo, did I go to sleep? You don't even know what life like, yo, what the. You like. It's like everything is just on. Like a revolving door.

[Julian]

It's like windows. No.

[Mal]

Slots. All of this, like, what the. None of this shuts off. Like, it's these sounds, these lights. Everything is 24. 7 non stop. Like you don't. That's nowhere for you to want. You don't want to be there. Like, I'm from New York City. Being here, as soon as you land in New York, you feel the difference in the energy. Like you feel. You hear the cars, the buses, the trains, the. Like when you go on vacation and come back to New York. Like if you go some. If you go like to an island for like a week and then land in jfk, it's like, why. Why do I live in this?

[Damaris]

This is awful.

[Rory]

I'm a basic. I'm like, finally a deli.

[Mal]

Nah, hell no.

[Rory]

I can walk. I can walk to something.

[Mal]

I can make my own sandwich. When you leave, when you go somewhere where it's just quiet, serene, peaceful, you know, does it stink? It's like, oh man. And then you come back and you like, move out of the way. You fucking. I'm like, yo, dawg, why am I here?

[Rory]

I'm home.

[Julian]

Leave it in.

[Mal]

Why am I here?

[Julian]

It was an impression.

[Mal]

What is this?

[Damaris]

It's awful.

[Rory]

Finally a city with high values.

[Mal]

That's what Vegas feels like, really. And then you leave. If you a gambling person, you know the house always wins.

[Julian]

So nothing more sad.

[Damaris]

My own money in Vegas is insane.

[Mal]

Whoever's money you gambling, I'm gonna learn.

[Rory]

How to count cards.

[Damaris]

Okay, Ray man.

[Mal]

Must ain't seen casino.

[Rory]

I've seen Oceans 11. That was very accurate.

[Mal]

Very true.

[Rory]

Can just. I can just get a machine that takes all the power out.

[Mal]

I'm sure they have that on ebay somewhere. You can.

[Rory]

The house is 75 year old in.

[Damaris]

A swat, but I feel like if you are. I feel like gambling is kind of like taking a multiple choice test. You gotta just use common sense. Like don't use your brain so much. Use common sense.

[Mal]

I see the type of woman Damaris is going to be because when you.

[Damaris]

Break it down, just know when to get the people.

[Rory]

You are selling some right now to.

[Mal]

Be a pit boss.

[Rory]

What you're saying is.

[Damaris]

No, but you should know when to get the up because they're gonna let you win a little bit so that they.

[Mal]

No, they're not.

[Julian]

You win, then he'll knock it or let you win. There's no grace.

[Mal]

Put it like this. If you go sit down right now at a poker table, first time ever playing poker, and you hit for 20 grand, right? Firsthand hit. 20 grand, the house. Don't kick the nigga two tables from you just lost a hundred grand and he still did.

[Rory]

They give a.

[Mal]

About that punk ass 20 grand they just gave you. They don't give a fuck about that shit. But the odds of that happening are.

[Rory]

Not a multiple choice test.

[Mal]

37 million to one. Like, that's not gonna happen. You're not gonna win.

[Rory]

Yeah. On a Scantron, I have a in four.

[Damaris]

Like, I could hit. I could hit Vegas on blackjack for a quick little 5k and end it.

[Mal]

But how much are you spending, though, to get hit that five?

[Julian]

No, in Damaris's scenario, it's the one hand. She's.

[Damaris]

No, not the one hand.

[Mal]

No.

[Damaris]

I play blackjack, so probably. I'll probably spend like a thousand, leave with 5,000. I made a 4k, come up, had a fun weekend.

[Rory]

We landed in Vegas and I was like, I have to go to Caesars and play blackjack. Put 200 worth of chips. Within five minutes, it was gone. I was like, that was the dumbest thing I've ever done.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that was stupid.

[Mal]

It's. Yo, I'm telling you that.

[Rory]

To say that I played blackjack and Caesars was not worth that 200.

[Damaris]

I wouldn't go to Caesars. I'd go to one of the little ones in a cut.

[Mal]

You know, those are the worst ones.

[Julian]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mal]

Those are the ones with the. The dice is fake. Them ain't even sanctioned.

[Rory]

And that's where. And that's where 20k will really affect them. So they're not letting you win.

[Mal]

Like, yeah, you not walking out. You like, y'all just hit for 20K. They're like, no, we hit for 20K and they got.

[Rory]

They got people outside if you do win to rob, you just.

[Mal]

Are you kidding me? The off the.

[Rory]

Off the pit boss, like, yo, he walking out now with 20k off brand.

[Mal]

Casinos off the Strip, if you want to, and see what happens. Man, hell no. But I do like driving into Vegas from la, though. That is a nice drive.

[Rory]

It's a fun drive. Yeah.

[Mal]

At night. Got to do that night.

[Damaris]

How long is it? Like two hours?

[Rory]

Three?

[Mal]

A little almost. Closer to three. Closer to three. But I like it because it's like, it reminds you those movies where you see people like in the desert and they're driving and they see like a broke down gas station and like it's really that type of shit on the side of the road.

[Damaris]

You think that that's like cool and.

[Mal]

Like if you to actually see it, I think it's, it's like, oh shit. Like these are real. Like this is really broken down gas stations on the side of it. We don't see that going down the turnpike to fucking Philly. And when there's no broken down gas stations on the turnpike, they all work.

[Rory]

Yeah, when we drove, we stopped in like Barstow, whatever it's called. And it's 115 degrees and you're at a awful gas station. Yeah, that's a fun experience. That's better than 200 at Caesars.

[Mal]

Now I'm not gonna lie, if you start seeing that gas tank, you like, nigga, hold on. Cause the next gas, the next, the next gas station ain't for another 60 something miles. So you better make sure that gas tank before you leave LA is to the brim full. Because it gets scary. Because you want to just a straight road and it's like, bro, it's nothing out here.

[Rory]

What's also funny is like they have a bunch of billboards and the closer you get to Vegas, they have like random hotels that are also casinos. You have a actual problem if you're driving to Vegas but have such an impulse to gamble. You stop at one of the hotels.

[Julian]

No catch a quick lick. Yeah, quick lick, quick leg, get back.

[Rory]

On the road, you have an issue.

[Mal]

It was a, it was a, it was, it's a little motel in Vegas. Like they got actual slot machines in the room.

[Julian]

Room that's sick. In the room is sick.

[Rory]

And probably no condoms.

[Mal]

Nah, no condoms in your room. A slot machine. You know how crazy that is?

[Rory]

They have slot machines in the airport.

[Damaris]

Okay, now, now here is where we say they. Yeah, people are mentally ill. They are taking advantage of people's mental illness in Mall's voice.

[Mal]

But they turn people mentally ill because if you. It's a lot of documentaries and stories about people that like a lot of the homeless population in Vegas are people that went there on vacation and just lost everything.

[Rory]

Sounds about right.

[Mal]

Like literally gambled their life savings, had to call their wife, tell their wife. Wife, you know, obviously hung up, don't want to hear him divorce, whatever. The kids, don't fuck with them and they have no money to leave. They just end up living on the Streets of Las Vegas. But they went there on vacation like they had money. They just sat at the table and just decided, like, it, man, I'm just tap into this life savings and try to hit. To get this money back, I need to get this 50 grand back. When you lose that, that last 50 grand and you got to call wifey, I don't think you should go home.

[Rory]

It's such an interesting concept I have, like, if I've saved 50k in a savings to be like, I'm gonna go gamble this.

[Mal]

But it happened. You know, that happens.

[Rory]

It's happening right now as we're saying.

[Mal]

100.

[Rory]

Yeah, it's just a.

[Mal]

But that's why I say that's the Vegas is just the idea. The concept of that city is insane to me. It's insane. That was designed to suck you dry in other ways. No pun intended, firehead.

[Damaris]

Well, I want to go. So one of y'all got all of that.

[Mal]

This. See you one of them. I know the type of kid you was, Damaris. You got to touch the stove. You got to touch the stove and see that blister on your palm to know never to do that again.

[Rory]

That's the type of kid they said crack is whack. And Damaris was like, is it?

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Is it?

[Rory]

Let me find out for myself.

[Mal]

Look, what's whack about it? That's who. Damaris. What's whack about it? Go ahead and smoke it. Fire it up.

[Rory]

Nancy Reagan. Nancy Reagan. You whack?

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Go ahead and so it must be cool.

[Mal]

Damaris saw the brains on the brains on drug commercial with the egg in the pan. She was like, that's how I cook mine. Over easy.

[Rory]

Yeah. I consider myself Sunnyside.

[Damaris]

I just think it's something that everybody should do. So I'm gonna do it.

[Mal]

Is it life saving? Smoke crack? No, I would go to Vegas.

[Julian]

Go to Vegas and smoke crack.

[Mal]

I just stay out of the pools.

[Damaris]

Oh, God, no. I don't do. And I. I hear they're like, heated.

[Julian]

You want to do Drez?

[Rory]

No, we watch.

[Mal]

Stay out of the pools.

[Rory]

We watch them put on full scuba gear after one of the day parties to go clean the pool. Like. No, full head to toe, like scuba stinky.

[Julian]

Scrape the come off the bottom of the pool.

[Mal]

Because people just putting on bikinis going down, ain't washing their ass.

[Rory]

We watched someone try to eat pussy.

[Mal]

Took his shit and then went right back to the pool. And you in there talking about, I fucking love Vegas. You got all that shit in your Mouth now. Go ahead. Go upstairs, shitty mouth.

[Rory]

And they let us chill for a while instead of kicking us out to watch, like, the whole pool cleaning thing. I thought they put sand at the bottom of the pool. Like, I thought it was an aesthetic. They started to clean. I was like, oh, that's dirt. That's a regular pool bottom. Yeah, I thought it was real sand.

[Mal]

No, it's.

[Rory]

It was dirt.

[Mal]

When you see those day parties, like, empty out and you see the pool, it's insane, the shit that's in there.

[Damaris]

Like, I'm never getting in a pool for a day party, though. I'll sit on the side in a little cabana with, like, my little champagne or whatever. I'm not getting in the pool in a pool party. That shit is gross.

[Rory]

He was doing laughs at the Clevelander in Miami. Don't say that.

[Damaris]

Never in my life.

[Mal]

Doing laps.

[Damaris]

Doing laps.

[Julian]

Laps.

[Mal]

Sick at the Clevelander.

[Rory]

I'm a hoe. I put my feet in the water at the Clevelander.

[Mal]

You definitely had your T shirt on in the pool.

[Julian]

Yeah, Roy left his socks on and shirt.

[Damaris]

I think I put my feet in at the merch. Laundry on.

[Mal]

He had his merch on.

[Rory]

Any moments of the Clevelander? Just a fly on the wall.

[Damaris]

Just merch rolled. And the T shirts.

[Rory]

Was sleeves rolled up with a pack of Marlboros.

[Mal]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's his west side Story swagger.

[Julian]

Public pools are gross. Just capacity. Not just the. The club pools. I just never got behind the shared communal water thing.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Chlorine.

[Mal]

Nah.

[Damaris]

But you shower at the gym.

[Mal]

Nah.

[Julian]

What is it? Yeah, it's a shower.

[Mal]

As long as you got flip flops on.

[Julian]

Yes, I do. People. People are so stupid. And they also just, like, project this, like, version of themselves. Like, who's like, oh, his towels. He brings them on the train. They get dusty and dirty on the train. No, idiot. I walk to and from the gym. It's 10 minutes from my apartment. They never go underground, if that's your rule of cleanliness.

[Rory]

You do know that, Jim.

[Damaris]

Jim. Yes, they wash them, but they still hold the bacteria from everybody else using them in the gym.

[Julian]

No, they don't.

[Mal]

I wouldn't know.

[Rory]

I'm convinced.

[Julian]

Well, I haven't had a bacterial infection of any sign of any kind.

[Rory]

Before we get to the next voicemail, what was the woman's name from the original voicemail?

[Mal]

Michelle.

[Rory]

I want Michelle to call back to tell us about that wild threesome because she said it was a crazy story.

[Mal]

Yeah, Michelle, you gotta call back and give us that threesome, man. Give us that threesome.

[Julian]

I hope it happened not in Chicago, unlike somewhere else.

[Rory]

We should title this episode. Michelle, tell us about your three something.

[Julian]

I live there. I'm just saying I hope it happened on her travels.

[Rory]

I mean, a threesome in Chicago is probably fun.

[Damaris]

I'd have a threesome in Chicago.

[Mal]

I never listen, man. Schoolboy Q album is still really good. Good.

[Rory]

I'd have a threesome in any.

[Damaris]

A week later. It's still really good. Like it's aging well.

[Mal]

Well, you know, a lot of this is the shelf life on a lot of these is two days, which is.

[Rory]

Crazy that we have to say that. I'm still listening a week later.

[Mal]

Yeah, still listening.

[Rory]

Same.

[Mal]

Still sounds good.

[Rory]

Yeah, like a lot. I hope he stops by.

[Damaris]

What's your guys favorite song?

[Mal]

I mean, with Jazzy is dope.

[Damaris]

You love Jazzy.

[Mal]

I love Jazzy.

[Rory]

It was one of the first records he put out. But Blue Slides is still one of my favorite joints that. That was on repeat the most. I feel like the. Thank you joint is fire. I love that beat switch. But no, it's still in rotation at my house.

[Mal]

Shout out to Q, man. Q. Really, it's. It's dope to see, like, dudes that you didn't think would have like a long recording career or like a successful recording career, like, stand the test of time and continue to put out dope shit. And Q is one of those artists for me. Like, I don't think Schoolboy has a whack album. He's like, his projects are really good projects. This one is really good still. Like I said, I'm listening. I like it more and more the more I hear it. I think this is some of his best rapping by far. I think he's. This is his. This is his best rapping. Best rapping. I haven't heard Q rap better than this.

[Rory]

Agreed. We have one more voicemail or.

[Julian]

Yeah, this is the one I was gonna play at the beginning of the episode.

[Michelle]

Hey, y'all, let a pod. My name is Queenie. I'm from California. I just need a little bit of advice. So recently me and my best friend have gotten into it because I told her that I'm tired of hearing about her relationship problems. Now, mind you, she's been on and off with the same guy for, I want to say, like four or five years, but he's never put a title on their relationship. So he's had whole relationships on her and fucked other people. She's caught him fucking other people and she Continues to go back. So recently she was trying to tell me about a problem that they were having, and she was crying about it. And I was like, like, I'm kind of tired of hearing about it because you gonna be crying on the phone to me. And then next week when he call you so he can, you know, I'm saying fuck again. You gonna be right back over there. So am I being a bad friend for telling her I'm done hearing about it, or should I, like, give her some grace? Because, you know, we've all been a sucker for somebody. Just let me know. Because some of my friends are saying that I'm being a bad friend, while others are saying basically like, that it's key for me to also protect my pe. So just let me know what y'all think again. Love the pod. Hey, Damaris, with your beautiful ass.

[Damaris]

Hi, boo.

[Michelle]

I'll see y'all later.

[Rory]

No, I think setting boundaries after a pattern like that is. Is fine. I would do the same thing. Yeah.

[Mal]

As friends, I think it's important to have that.

[Rory]

She gave a lot of chances.

[Mal]

Have that moment. Like, I want my homeboys to tell me, like, yo, bro, you tripping. Like, leave that girl alone. Like, stop calling her. It's over. Move on. You need your homies to say that sometimes.

[Rory]

And you're an adult, so you can make whatever decision you want to, but I have the right to say, don't talk to me about it because this is getting old. And I've already told you it's not good for you. So don't come to me. Don't ask for my advice, and continue not to take it.

[Mal]

Right?

[Rory]

Yeah. I don't think that's wrong at all.

[Damaris]

I've definitely been there where I had a friend, multiple friends who just, like, been with the wrong. And it's just like, all right, girl. Like, this is getting old. What I will say is, as I've gotten older.

[Mal]

You're 29.

[Damaris]

No, but as I've got this, I don't know if you know, but we've been getting played by since we were, like, 12. So, like, it's been a while.

[Mal]

Yo, getting played by since she was 12 is crazy.

[Julian]

Sounds statutory.

[Mal]

You know how crazy that is?

[Damaris]

It's been dirt since, like, dirt.

[Mal]

Like, so supposed to be a stand up at 12 years old. He's supposed to have it all figured out. Like, you don't respect.

[Julian]

What are you expecting to be?

[Rory]

Yeah, like, what did he do?

[Mal]

You know, he didn't bring.

[Julian]

Didn't bring her a juice box.

[Mal]

Yeah, he didn't bring in no cheese puffs that day.

[Damaris]

Yo bought another girl a carnation on Valentine's Day.

[Julian]

Like, swag.

[Mal]

You still ain't recovered from that heartbreak.

[Julian]

A carnation.

[Damaris]

It's just we've been dealing with men for a long time, so you be. You know, shit gets old after a while. But to my point, if you're not comfortable giving her advice anymore because she doesn't listen to the advice, I get that. But if you've already told her how you feel, you've told her you've had that conversation. Like, yo, you being an idiot. He's never gonna love you. He's never gonna do this. He's never gonna act right. If you've had that conversation already and she still wants to, like, keep touching the stove like Mal said, then at this point, just be there just to listen to her vent. That's what I would do. Like, listen to her vent. Be there for your friend and her mental health, because you're not gonna change her mind. She's not. Like, when she.

[Mal]

Let me ask you something. Who have you had better relationships with, men or women?

[Damaris]

What do you mean?

[Mal]

Like, sexual relationship.

[Damaris]

The girl asked for advice.

[Mal]

No, but I'm just. I'm trying to. I'm trying to see something here. What do you mean? Like, who have you had. When you were dating, like, women versus dating men? Like, who did you have better experiences with, men or women?

[Damaris]

I don't. That's not a fair comparison because I don't date women in the same capacity I date men. I don't give women the full Damaris experience to. Let me get it.

[Mal]

Okay, that's fair.

[Damaris]

But, yeah, don't. Don't skip out on your friends. Honestly, just. I know it can get old. I know it can get annoying as fuck. But, like, just.

[Mal]

Man, fuck that. Tell your friend. Listen, you gonna keep hitting your head, bumping your head with this dumb ass, dude, you gonna run yourself into a fucking situation you can't get yourself out of. Just cut your losses short now and move on.

[Damaris]

Yes, you can tell her that. She's not gonna do that.

[Rory]

You're being an enable.

[Julian]

No.

[Damaris]

You're not being an assemblage.

[Mal]

No. But as a friend, let me tell you firsthand, as a friend, would you. As long as you get it off and say that you said it. Whether they take that advice and take heed to it or not, that ain't on.

[Damaris]

But y'all aren't. Listen, she said she did that already.

[Mal]

Okay? So then shut the fuck up. What's her name?

[Julian]

Queenie.

[Mal]

Queenie. That's it.

[Rory]

To that point is why I think she should leave it alone. She was there multiple times for her. It's getting old at this point. Back to the gambling shit. If somebody. If my friend loses 50 grand of his life savings, I'll be there for him and he gets his money back up, up and goes back to the casino, I'll still be there for him. And really tell him, yo, you are up. The third time he goes once he has his money again, I'm not. Don't talk to me.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I can say don't.

[Mal]

Just.

[Damaris]

I would say don't talk to me.

[Rory]

No, I'm not here to support you because you continue to go blow your life savings, Rory.

[Damaris]

That's not fair. Because you have female friends who have gone back to over and over and over and over and over again. And every time I want to vent to you about it, you'll listen, you'll tell me the truth, you'll tell me about myself, but you listen.

[Mal]

Yeah, but it's not how the marriage said. You have female friends that go back to. She raised her head and then say, but then I'll listen. I'll come back to you.

[Damaris]

I'm not the only one.

[Rory]

But, but like when you. When you'll vent and I'm. I'm not telling you business. Like y'all will be separated and he might someone else. This guy is just constantly cheating on this girl non stop. That's not anything you vented to me about. You've been on breaks, ups and downs, and like somebody you're trying to see a whole long term relationship with. This guy's just other every day way different. You've never vented to me in that way.

[Damaris]

No, because it never would.

[Rory]

If the guy he was talking about was just. While y'all were in a committed relationship. Damaris, I would tell you, leave that and stop talking to me about this. Leave like it's done.

[Damaris]

I mean, I don't. I get to a point, I've gotten to a point where it's just like, yo, shorty, if that's what you want to deal with, you must like that. Then that's the. And I'll say that like when you're venting like, well, you must like it because you won't leave one day you'll get tired of it. Like, like. And that's that. And then eventually the friend will probably stop talking to you about it because you're making her feel stupid. But I never want a Man, to be able to isolate my friends away from me. Because once he has you like that, then you're. You're cooked. Once you can't vent to your friends or your family and everybody's tired of you. Now you alone and this nigga is all that you have. I never want to put my friends in that predicament. So it might be tough for me, like, watching her be a dumb bitch over and over and over again and telling her she's being a dumb bitch over and over and over again.

[Rory]

But, but, but I mean, if she want to go vent about work, to her, great. I was going to say don't vent about this guy.

[Julian]

Compartmentalize it.

[Rory]

Come about anything else in your life.

[Julian]

I gave you my piece on that. Don't come to me with that topic. I'll talk to you about the rest of your life because we're still friends. Leave all that to someone else that wants to listen.

[Mal]

And if your friend keep asking you for advice on relationships and you keep giving them advice and they're not listening, they don't want your advice.

[Rory]

Some people just want to vent. Yeah.

[Damaris]

Some people just want to.

[Julian]

Well, they just want to hear what they should do and then know that it's just like actively. Still not. They're like, oh, I should.

[Mal]

Yeah, but I can't deal with that.

[Julian]

I have friends cut a couple people out.

[Damaris]

That's not really. But people are never really asking for advice when it comes to love. They're. They're looking for you to give them permission to do what they want to do.

[Rory]

Anyway, after the third venting to. To Queenie, at that point, she just want to hear herself talk. Like, there's not much advice that you could even offer if somebody is continually cheating on you. Like, we. This isn't going to be some long, deep conversation after the third time you called him cheating.

[Mal]

All right?

[Rory]

This is a five minute conversation. Like, hey, it's time to move on.

[Mal]

Well, Queenie, hopefully we gave you some. Some solid advice. Not like you going take it. But.

[Damaris]

I mean, no, but Queenie isn't the one.

[Mal]

No, I'm saying she's probably, you know, she just wants to hear our thoughts on it.

[Rory]

But yeah, and if you care about your friend, that is. That could be a kick in the ass to her. Like, all right, my friend won't even talk to me about this whole shit. Like, it must be bad now.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

So. Yeah.

[Mal]

Well, Queenie, if y'all not doing anything, March 23rd, come on down to Washington D.C. we'll be at The Howard Theater. We got plenty more advice for you. It'll be a good time. Tickets available now newroarimal.com and we'll see everybody down there soon.

[Rory]

Yep.

[Mal]

What you got going on this weekend? Fly on the Wall?

[Rory]

I don't know. Yeah, I don't think I have anything.

[Mal]

I think I'm gonna go see the One Love Movie. Still haven't seen it yet.

[Damaris]

You always say you can go see a movie and never go see it.

[Mal]

But I know I've been doing pretty good, though. Like, I've. I've gone to see most of the movies that I wanted to see, but I haven't gone to see the Bob Marley movie. I think I'm gonna go see it this weekend. Know, maybe.

[Rory]

Maybe we all go together and, like, do it at a theater that's by your new crib. And then after we just like, oh, horrible idea. We all chill.

[Mal]

Actually, there's no theater. There's no theaters.

[Damaris]

You already.

[Julian]

Oh, no, it's in the building.

[Damaris]

I was about to say the other one was across the street.

[Mal]

Building.

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Do I live at. In the Time Warner building?

[Julian]

Yeah.

[Mal]

No, I do not. Yeah, I'm go see that this weekend.

[Rory]

Or I could bring my projector to your new crib and we could just. Just find, like, an illegal download and watch it all together or.

[Damaris]

This is sad.

[Mal]

A terrible idea.

[Julian]

I watched American Fiction and Past Lives earlier this week, and they are both fantastic films. Both American Fiction.

[Mal]

What's that about?

[Julian]

It's the. It's. You guys would love it. It's with. Damn, what's his name? It's actually gonna bother me. Jesse Jeffrey Wright. Jeffrey Wright.

[Mal]

Oh, that's one of my favorite actors.

[Julian]

He's incredible. The. The whole.

[Mal]

Oh, is this the one where he wrote the movie?

[Julian]

The book he wrote? Like, he's a. He's a scholar, writer, author. But none of his was selling. And the that was selling is like the black experience through, you know, the. That white people want to see. Like, oh, I made it out the ghetto. It's like that kind of.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Julian]

So Issa Rae plays this other author who wrote one of those kind of books.

[Mal]

It's like, of course you do.

[Julian]

You know, Tyrone made it out the trap, and now he's, you know, he's freedom writers. It's like one of those. So then. So that he, as a joke, like, like, comes up with a pseudonym and writes one of those books, and it immediately becomes, like, a prized piece. And it's. It's a really, really well done film. But you Guys should watch it. It's my favorite of the year, to be honest. It's really great. And check that out. Covers on a lot of cool. And then Past Lives is a beautiful love story. I cried before going to bed last night, so that was fun.

[Mal]

Wait. What? Did you call your mom?

[Rory]

No, she's asleep in the morning. He did, though.

[Mal]

Definitely the mom. I cried last night.

[Julian]

You guys should see it takes place in New York. It's a lot. A lot of good shots.

[Mal]

Oh, Jules, why did you cry?

[Rory]

There we go.

[Mal]

What happened? Do you need your blankie?

[Rory]

You know he has his blankie.

[Mal]

Oh, he has his blankie.

[Rory]

Yeah. Mom doesn't have.

[Mal]

Oh, man. Yeah, Mom. Mom doesn't have a blankie, but Jules does.

[Julian]

D. Yes.

[Mal]

I'm sorry.

[Julian]

All right, today, 24 films. Really well done. Great love story. It's about this, like, Korean.

[Mal]

All right. Can you tell me why you cried, though? You don't tell me the movie.

[Julian]

See the ending.

[Mal]

Okay. All right, cool.

[Julian]

I don't want to spoil it, because.

[Mal]

No, yeah. Did you see this? You went to the theater to see this?

[Julian]

No. This is on Amazon Prime.

[Mal]

Okay, got you copy. All right.

[Julian]

Yeah. I was at the crib.

[Mal]

I watched that. I might watch that and then not cry.

[Rory]

I'm starting to notice the pattern with you. All Asian casts make you cry.

[Damaris]

Yeah, he loves that.

[Julian]

They write good stuff. What do you mean, all Asian? Oh, everything. Everywhere.

[Rory]

Yeah. Anytime. There's just a lot of. They're good writers on the cast. Julian's gonna cry.

[Julian]

That's a weird.

[Rory]

Like, is it a fact, though? Point out the lie.

[Mal]

All Asian movies make Julia cry.

[Julian]

Makes no sense.

[Mal]

That's insane. That would be insane. If you put on a movie and it's just age people, your man just start crying. You're like, yo, why you cry?

[Damaris]

I already know this one's gonna.

[Julian]

It's like Red Dragon.

[Mal]

What? You crying?

[Julian]

Jet Li film.

[Rory]

I was gonna go. I was gonna go with Last Samurai with Asian comic Rush Hour.

[Mal]

What's the one where he was a dog and they had, like, a collar on Jet Li?

[Julian]

What.

[Mal]

What movie was that? Was DMX in that one with him?

[Rory]

Oh, Cradle to the Grave.

[Julian]

Unleashed.

[Mal]

Unleashed the Grave is a really good movie, though.

[Rory]

It is a great movie. First of all, Jet Li having a collar on. Movie called Unleashed is hilarious.

[Mal]

Julian definitely cried watching Unleashed.

[Damaris]

Did you cry on Crazy Witch Asians?

[Julian]

No, no.

[Mal]

Karate Kid. He definitely cried. It was only one Asian. The Karate Kid, Mr. Mc Yagi. That was it.

[Damaris]

Yo.

[Rory]

Wax on scene. So powerful.

[Mal]

Yo, yo. He was on the beach practicing his crane kick. Get the out of here. That crane kick could get you knocked the out in 20, 24. You try that right now, Rory. See what happened.

[Julian]

A slow wind kick.

[Mal]

Imagine. Imagine a do this now. He going to fight you. I'm like, man, I see. I saw the movie. I know what's going to happen. I'mma you up soon as you throw that slow ass.

[Rory]

Crackheads love that move. And it's effective for them.

[Mal]

Them crackheads?

[Rory]

Crackheads definitely do this before they're gonna fight.

[Julian]

Wouldn't you just sweep the leg? Also, look at his arms aren't in a defensive stance. Like, he's so exposed.

[Rory]

So exposed.

[Mal]

He's so. This was.

[Rory]

His chin is so available.

[Mal]

Yo. This movie is proof that back in the 80s you could have wrote anything and it was a hit. Like, who thought like, we're gonna do the crane kick and that's gonna be like the way he wins the tournament. And that crane kick could get your jaw broke.

[Damaris]

Mal, did you cry on the Pursuit of Happiness movie?

[Mal]

All right, let me be honest.

[Julian]

All right, here we go.

[Mal]

Let me be honest.

[Julian]

Takes Will Smith for you to cry.

[Mal]

I didn't cry. I didn't cry. But I felt something in my nose and eye area right here.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Mal]

I felt something.

[Rory]

It made me resent women more.

[Julian]

Yeah, fuck bitches.

[Mal]

How did you get that from that movie?

[Rory]

That mom was a piece of shit?

[Damaris]

Or was she a stressed out woman.

[Rory]

Overworked and her husband so she should abandon her family?

[Mal]

She didn't have a soft life wife, you know, she shouldn't have been. Her family only.

[Rory]

Only women bodies.

[Mal]

Drink a latte.

[Rory]

Only women will be forgiven for abandoning their family and forcing them to live in a public bathroom. Only women could get away.

[Damaris]

Did not forgive her.

[Mal]

Yeah, I'm sorry.

[Rory]

Get understanding.

[Damaris]

She was a shitty.

[Rory]

She was a shitty person. Yes.

[Damaris]

She will give men understanding all the time.

[Rory]

Abandoning your children. You're a shitty person. First ballot hall of Famer. Yeah, there's no debate here, of course.

[Damaris]

But what I'm saying is you can't.

[Mal]

Be that girl if you're not that mom.

[Damaris]

I can't.

[Rory]

I hate you so much.

[Julian]

That's a thing people say.

[Damaris]

No, it's not real.

[Mal]

It sounds like something girls would say. You can't be that girl if you're not that mom.

[Julian]

Some single mother would have is like a bumper sticker.

[Mal]

Yeah, like get the.

[Damaris]

I was just saying that extremely poor people have different ways of surviving and trying to stay afloat. So that's all I'm saying, I'm not sticking up for her or anybody. Yeah, the dad had it, but they were extremely.

[Mal]

Dad had a very, very different way of dealing with that.

[Rory]

Yeah, it's not like she. She left home to go get some money to then come back. She just left.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

You know, Rory, out of this whole entire beautiful movie and all the things that happen, you hating the mom is just like, that's being the one thing that you remember out of the whole movie.

[Rory]

Is it not a significant part of the.

[Damaris]

No, it's not. It's literally not a significant part of the movie. I think she left within the first 20 minutes.

[Mal]

Minutes.

[Rory]

He.

[Mal]

Yeah, I mean, it's still a significant problem.

[Rory]

He stops selling computers.

[Mal]

And it was the dad and the son together because the mom left him.

[Julian]

He didn't have a pen or paper.

[Rory]

It actually sets up the entire movie because now he's trying to run around and do daycare because she's like. She left.

[Mal]

He got to go sleep in the, you know, shelter and bathroom, wash clothes in the sink.

[Damaris]

You know, they would have still been doing all that had she stayed. They just would have been doing it together.

[Mal]

And she was like a housekeeper, wasn't she? Like a hotel.

[Damaris]

Hotel, yeah, I think she was like a housekeeper.

[Mal]

She couldn't get us a discount at the hotel so we could go.

[Damaris]

They were poor.

[Mal]

Poor.

[Damaris]

They still would have been able to afford that hotel.

[Mal]

If you work there, I'm guessing you.

[Rory]

Can get a room and, you know, when.

[Mal]

If she was housekeepers, yeah, you get a discount.

[Damaris]

If you work, you get a discount. But they still probably wouldn't have been able to afford it with the discount.

[Rory]

Is what I'm saying.

[Mal]

I see what you're saying.

[Rory]

If she stayed, she still would have given them shit. Like, you weren't working. You were at a baseball game. You was at the Giants game. I could see it.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

It was a beautiful movie.

[Mal]

Great movie. I didn't cry, but I definitely. I definitely felt something right here.

[Rory]

I was more of a £7 crier when it came to Will Smith movies. £7 got me.

[Damaris]

I think I cried or. So I'm gonna go home and watch it. I haven't watched it in, like, 10 years.

[Rory]

I am legend. When he strangles the dog. Choked up a bit.

[Mal]

Bad Boys 40 just rapped.

[Damaris]

Yes. I'm excited.

[Mal]

I'm not.

[Damaris]

But, you know, y'all didn't like Bad Boys 3.

[Rory]

Still.

[Mal]

I just don't want to see Martin. I don't want to see Martin trying to do his own running scenes. No more.

[Rory]

Why?

[Mal]

Because Martin can't run.

[Rory]

He could barely run in Bad Boys, too.

[Mal]

Yeah, I was like, yeah, like, exactly. So imagine three is how many years after Bad Boy.

[Damaris]

Well, he was. He was hurt the majority of Bad Boys 3, but Bad Boys 3 was still. Obviously, it's not as good as 2 and 1, but Bad Boys 3 was not a bad movie.

[Mal]

It wasn't a bad movie, but I just. I don't want to see Will and. Well, Will's kind of still sort of in shape, but I don't want to.

[Damaris]

See very much in shape.

[Mal]

I don't want to see Martin trying to, like, fall out of windows and get up and run. Just, like, let Martin just be, like, the dude, the dispatch guy now. Let him be funny, like, as a dispatcher, like, Mike, get your ass over there. Mike. You know, let him do that shit from. Don't show Martin out there running around, jumping through shit. Don't do that. It. I.

[Damaris]

Well, give it a try. I say you haven't seen three, Rory.

[Rory]

No, see, I thought about it on a plane. I'm clicking it, but I was like.

[Damaris]

I'm forcing you to watch it. I'm coming over this week.

[Mal]

Mar need glasses now. He can't shoot without his glasses. It's like, what are we doing?

[Rory]

At least it's accurate.

[Mal]

Yeah, but come on, man. It's time to go. Sit down. It's time. Not for life. For real. One of you is going to die trying to do the next five. For now, he had never seen Bad Boys.

[Julian]

Bad Boys for now.

[Rory]

Wait, Wasn't Bad Boys 3 called for life? They're still lifing. Wasn't it Bad Boys 3?

[Mal]

Well, that's.

[Julian]

I feel like that's been the catchphrase.

[Mal]

This whole life before.

[Rory]

I get.

[Mal]

But see, you know why I'm scared for this one. And be honest.

[Rory]

No, ludicrous.

[Mal]

No. The total opposite.

[Damaris]

He got the mumps.

[Mal]

I feel like this is that. Don't do that. I feel like this is Scout, yo. Yeah, That's a legend. Don't do that.

[Rory]

I agree.

[Mal]

I feel like Bad Boys is headed to the Fast and furious route.

[Damaris]

I don't think they're gonna make it to 10. Them two are not gonna survive the 10.

[Mal]

Like, no way. Because the stunts that they was trying to do in three, I was like, all right, all right. I seen where this turned to fast and furious.

[Rory]

I see where it went with the Irishman.

[Mal]

Yeah. Chill out. You know what I'm saying? Let's keep it more like, you know, it don't Gotta be so much action. I understand you're trying to keep it. It an action film, but let's. Let's keep it more comedy now.

[Damaris]

The best thing about those movies, I mean it. The action has always been good, especially, like, the driving scenes in Miami and all of that. But the comedy, the banter is what makes those movies.

[Mal]

We need more of that as these get older, is what I'm saying.

[Rory]

Just.

[Damaris]

They can start a podcast.

[Julian]

Yeah, yeah.

[Mal]

These.

[Julian]

The podcast.

[Mal]

Yeah, These just like. All right, fam.

[Julian]

They can podcast with guns.

[Mal]

Yeah. Bad Boys 3. They Shot Homie and he survived it miraculously and all. Kind of don't tell. He ain't gonna watch this movie.

[Rory]

You know, somebody already spoiled it for him. Isn't, like, his son in it or something?

[Damaris]

We'll watch it.

[Rory]

Somebody spoiled it for me already.

[Julian]

Jaden's in it.

[Mal]

Yeah. Yes, he's in it.

[Damaris]

Shout out to the Karate Kid.

[Rory]

Kia had never seen the Patriot before, so we watched it yesterday. And I love Gibson.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

I love that movie. And I hadn't seen in a long time, but I started to get judgy in the beginning of, like, Mel Gibson. Trying to be. Get sympathy for being this widower was some of the most selfish I've ever seen in my life. Of course your wife is gonna die when you make her have seven kids in the 1700s. What the is wrong with you? Seven? It's. Having seven kids in 2024 might kill a woman. You made your wife have seven kids in the 1700s, and now is like, how'd she die?

[Mal]

And all she had was a. A bowl of hot water by the bed and some towels.

[Rory]

Can you imagine the 1700s making your. That's all they do have, seven kids.

[Mal]

They just rinse out the. The towel and a bowl of hot water and just put it on. It's like, she's hemorrhaging. She's gonna need more.

[Julian]

That must have looked crazy.

[Rory]

And what's funny is Kia asked like, well, how'd the wife die? I was like, they never address it. And I finally realized, because it's obvious she had seven kids, she definitely died on the last one.

[Mal]

Yeah, she died trying to. Trying to give birth.

[Rory]

Like, if she made it to five, you have to feel like, wow, I can't believe we did that. We should chill.

[Mal]

And, you know, she was only 24.

[Rory]

Oh, I was gonna go with, like, 14.

[Mal]

That's crazy. That's sick.

[Rory]

They started having kids at, like, 14 back then, right? Yeah, right after the period.

[Julian]

They try it now?

[Mal]

Yeah, they do it now. Yeah, sick times. All right, well, enjoy your weekend. Be safe. We'll talk to y'all soon. I'm that nigga. He's just Ginger. Peace. No worrying now.
