[Mal]

I just wanted to talk to you. You always complain that I don't answer your phone calls, and then when I call you, you never answer.

[Rory]

Well, I was doing bedtime routine. I was making sure there wasn't, like, an emergency, because usually if I was an emergency, I stayed up late on Friday thinking that you were coming to crib.

[Mal]

Nah, man.

[Rory]

Meanwhile, you out getting hookah.

[Mal]

My homegirl was also. My homegirl was in town. So we went and tried to get into Mirror.

[Rory]

I changed the sheets, washed the towels. Like, I thought we were gonna have a girls night. I was. I was waiting for the tea.

[Mal]

Nah, I'm sorry.

[Damaris]

Damn, you still roll you up for girls nights?

[Mal]

Nadia came into town, so we was outside.

[Damaris]

Nadia?

[Mal]

You met Nadia? She was here from Atlanta. She came here.

[Damaris]

Okay. Nadia, Nadia.

[Mal]

She came into town to see Melissa Jefferson. That's her cousin. Run in the finals or the championships or whatever track meet was here.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Mal]

So we went out. We went out to. They were like, we want to go to Mirror. I'm like, on a Friday, late night.

[Rory]

Ah, unlike homie on Vlad, I found out I'm not one of the girls. I was not invited. I thought we was. I thought we was gonna have a night in.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Nah, they went out.

[Damaris]

Did wash the linens. Rory. Wash the linens and everything. Only for baby D to stay.

[Rory]

Peppermint. Peppermint tea, ready to go.

[Damaris]

Oh, my gosh. That was a perfect girls night right there.

[Mal]

Yeah, man. So I'm so sorry.

[Damaris]

That's how you got. Look at it.

[Rory]

Oh, no. Amara destroyed it shortly after. Yeah. This was Friday night. She was at Summer Jam, which was in Jersey. So she was like, I'm either going to come to your crib before or after. She's like, I'm running late for my brand pregame. Like, where she had to be. She was the toast of the town or something. Okay, so she was late for that. So I'm thinking like, oh, all right, cool. So around 11, you know, you start to worry, like, hey, not to be a nagging mom, but everything okay. I'll leave the door open. And she's like, oh, I just ordered blue Mist. I was like, all right.

[Mal]

I was like, yeah, we outside. Sorry, I gotta go.

[Damaris]

I just love the fact that Baby D said she wasn't drinking, and then two weeks later, all she's been doing is drinking.

[Mal]

Yeah, I know. I. No real, though. You know, I'm not even gonna say. I'm just gonna do it, please, because

[Damaris]

I'm sick of you.

[Dom]

And.

[Damaris]

And, yeah, you know what? I'm having a dry August, a dry September. I don't want to hear nothing.

[Mal]

That's why I said I'm not even gonna talk about it.

[Damaris]

You are a lush. Accepted.

[Dom]

All right.

[Rory]

She pushing the release date back.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You like Cal at the J show. She saw that.

[Rory]

Inspired to drink.

[Damaris]

She saw that do Say, you know what? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, I'll push this dry August back a little bit.

[Rory]

Well, this isn't like a shot at Summer Jam. I. I've had fond memories there. Going to Summer Jam sober would be crazy.

[Damaris]

Why?

[Rory]

That's nuts. Prudential Center, Friday night. Now you gotta be like. You have to be drunk.

[Damaris]

You have to be drunk to go to any concert.

[Rory]

I said summer Jam.

[Damaris]

What's the difference?

[Rory]

I did two days. I did two days at the whole show completely sober and was fine.

[Damaris]

That's what I'm saying, as a former

[Rory]

alcoholic, that you think I would need it. I was cool. Summer Jam.

[Damaris]

No, but what's the difference in being sober at Summer Jam versus.

[Mal]

I don't know what he trying to say. What are you trying to say?

[Damaris]

It's the lineup. The lineup is a little slow.

[Rory]

Listen, it's just dependency. That's all it is.

[Damaris]

Now, Baby D came in here and says something, and I'm ready to argue what I said. Yeah, what did you say? First of all, before we get into that, we are back sponsored by Boost. Unlimited talk, text and data.

[Mal]

What I. What I said was that I enjoyed the Prudential Center Summer Jam experience more than MetLife. It felt more lit to me, more than the ones I had been to at MetLife.

[Damaris]

Why is that?

[Mal]

I think because the venue was smaller. Everyone is closer.

[Damaris]

Okay, okay.

[Mal]

It's easier for.

[Damaris]

More intimate.

[Mal]

Yes. It's easier for the artist to go into the crowd. Like, I'm not gonna lie. Like, Zetti will shout out to him. He had an amazing set. He had the crowd turned up. Him and Dababy went into the crowd and had, like. They were, like, standing on the crowd's chairs and had, like, the crowd twerking like it was a lot of fun.

[Rory]

Oh, my party, when I went unit through those chairs.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's the era I come from.

[Mal]

Oh, okay. That's what's up. I mean, that's. That's dope. But, yeah, I. I enjoy.

[Damaris]

Remember when they started, like, bolting the chairs down? Like, I know why they started doing that. Like, I was there the year before they bolted the chairs to the ground.

[Mal]

Also, the crowd at the Prudential center is always a good time. Like, me and Rory have expressed that we like going. Like, if I can go choose between going to a concert at Barclays and going at the Prudential center, for certain artists, I'd rather go to the Prudential center because of who the crowd is.

[Damaris]

A lot of people like the. A lot of people say they don't like the sound system at Barclays. I've seen a lot of people.

[Mal]

I'm not the biggest fan of it either. Honestly.

[Rory]

They raise a pretty good point. Yeah, I'm. I'm with you. Compared to the three in the Tri State, yes. Barclays would be the lowest with sound, for sure.

[Dom]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Which is weird to me because it's the newest.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

But it's not always the greatest. But yeah, Like, Zetty Will had the. Like, it was lit. Like, he's in the middle of the crowd, by the way. Like, it was. It felt like a party.

[Rory]

Yeah. Ironically, Jersey is the perfect place for Summer Jam.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Yeah. Would be way more fun than Barclays.

[Damaris]

All right, so maybe do you make a point? It's more intimate.

[Mal]

It was more intimate. Like, I'm not talking about, like, the line. Obviously, the line knows Summer Jam has had fudgeing. Incredible line.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Mal]

You know I'm saying. But this one was good. It was about. Yeah, it was about the energy in the room. Like, it was. It was good.

[Rory]

Was it the livest party that's ever hit an arena? Those are my words. Those were the flyers words.

[Mal]

That's what the flyer said. I mean, it was. It was lit. It was a good party. Shout out to. Shout out to Hot 97. They did their thing. Like, you know, it was good. I showed up. Whatever. It was fine. I was up in a suite. But even I felt, like, the energy. I miss Natalie. I missed a lot of it. I miss Natalie.

[Damaris]

You missed the baddies.

[Mal]

I missed the baddies.

[Rory]

I even go, yeah.

[Mal]

Like, I came right after them. Yeah. Like, when I was walking in, Caresha was walking in to go straight on stage.

[Damaris]

Like, so I. Oh, so you saw Caresha.

[Mal]

I saw Caresha pull Out the goyard bags and start throwing money out into the front, into the audience.

[Rory]

Instead of, like, choreography or dancer, she should really just have people scrapping behind her.

[Damaris]

Natalie.

[Rory]

Even if it's fake, like, even how, like, big did the. The party and where, like, the whole crew would fake fight. Yeah, like, she should fight like. Like some real, like, Kill Bill choreography fighting scenes behind her while she performed.

[Damaris]

Or just take a page out of Westside guns book and have wrestlers.

[Rory]

That, too.

[Damaris]

That's some female wrestlers on stage as well. You have Jade up there. You know, I mean, let Jade body slam a few people. Like, you know, that'll be fun. Get it lit. Yeah.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

All right. So you had a good time at Summer Jam?

[Mal]

I did. I did have a. I had a very random Summer Jam, but I had a good time at Summer Jam. I was like. I was. First of all, I was shout out to. To Dream Doll and pit Bully and the Streamer University kids. They were some of the people that were with the brand that I was with, and I ended up in the car with them. And we got into Summer Jam, like, through the artist entrance, because Dream was like, I'm performing there.

[Damaris]

Go.

[Mal]

My security. Dream was not. She was like, I'm performing. They call my security guy right there. Like, but they're streaming all of this, like, at the same time. So they streaming. Sneaking.

[Mal]

I didn't know what he was gonna do. What did he do? Diss Jadakiss.

[Damaris]

He dissed. Well, it was more so a Jim Jones diss. But he had a couple bars in there for Kiss and Fat Joe. But, yeah, a lot of that energy was direct to it, which was weird because he put out, you know, when he was on. He went back on Bag Fuel, and then he said that he didn't feel like Jim had a place to speak on. I guess lyricism and rappers that really can rap. So then when he put out Fool's Mate, we all thought it was gonna be in response to Kiss. Yeah, he got me saying it's just about a verse. It's about a career. We thought it was gonna be that. But a lot of the energy was directed at Jim Jones, which surprised. I don't know if it surprised anybody else, but I was kind of like, oh, I didn't think he would give Jim this much energy. Especially, like I said when he was on Bag Fuel and said he didn't feel like Jim was qualified to talk about bars and things like that. So I just didn't understand why he Would give Jim so many bars if Jim isn't qualified to talk about bars or to rap with or against Spet. So kind of threw me off. But, you know, nonetheless, the beef is on. Rap Beef is back alive and well. 38 Special made that very clear with Fool's Mate.

[Rory]

Yeah, I. I was with you. I mean, not to say I was super invested in this, but I thought when he posted that on Friday at midnight, we were getting a Jadakiss this. I. Jim Jones didn't even cross my mind. But then after this happened, I did go back and like, refresh my own memory. Jim has barely say anything. And Jim did do a full video about it. Yeah, it would have been weirder if it was the other way around, now that I think about it. Well, because Kiss really didn't say much. Kiss didn't say much. Had a whole video. I'm assigned my man's. If you go out, like, it kind of would have looked weirder if he would have just done a whole Kiss this and then gave Jim one more.

[Damaris]

Yeah, Kiss didn't say much. So it makes. When you look at it, it makes sense that he didn't go at Kiss crazy.

[Rory]

We were just disappointed because that's what we.

[Damaris]

We anticipated it. We expected that a lot of that energy was going to be directed towards Kiss. It wasn't. But now, to the record, Fool's Mate, gotta be honest, you know, Special is my guy. Fuck with Special. I just think he may have went a little too far with, you know, putting Jim's. Jim's lady in it. Like, I don't think that that was. Was necessary.

[Rory]

It felt round 2ish to me. Like, this is after a back and forth and somebody. No, no, no. Coming out the gate going at someone's dog.

[Damaris]

So you looking. I'm looking at it like, this is not even about rapping anymore. This is personal.

[Rory]

Oh, now it is.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, I thought it was rap. I thought it was just, you know, just sport. But this, you know, Special going at Jim's lady the way he did. This is not. This is not rap anymore. This is going to a whole nother place, whether or not it's warranted. You know, maybe spech may have heard Jim say something that he felt like, you know, I want to take it there. You know what I'm saying? And I feel like there's enough things out on the Internet about Jim that Spetz probably could have written to about where he didn't have to put.

[Rory]

Didn't have to focus on.

[Damaris]

He didn't have to focus on, you know, his relationship with his lady and things like that. Like, because again, when you do that, that's basically saying, like, you know, we could take it to wherever you want to take it. And I didn't want it to go

[Rory]

there, but I thought this was gonna be fun. Rap.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I thought this was gonna be fun. Little sparring back and forth. But, you know, I just can't see it being that energy anymore, unfortunately. Again, I hate to see rappers get into like this, but, you know, it is what it is. The song is out. The telling part for me was that Jim Jones hasn't. And I don't. I didn't check the timeline. Yes. Yesterday still hasn't responded to. Said anything.

[Rory]

Yeah. And usually, like, even when that.

[Damaris]

And usually Jim goes right back, it says something. He'll respond. He'll post something. So, you know, I don't. I don't know if that's saying something

[Rory]

because remember, Whipston said the original version of Whips and Chains leaked with the clips at the Louis Vuitton was right back. He had the microphone hanging in Harlem that night.

[Damaris]

Yeah, right back. So again, that. That. That says to me that, you know, this is. This is unfortunately not just about rapping anymore, that this is more personal. It's going to a place where it's just, you know. You know, it's. Unfortunately, again, you talk about somebody's wife or, you know, lady, the relationship that. That to some, to many, is crossing a line where it's like, okay, it's not about music and skill anymore. Like, this is personal. So it is what it is, but,

[Rory]

you know, see where that one goes. But, I mean, luckily, Damaris is there to, you know, diffuse any. Any upstate versus the city type of vibe.

[Mal]

She was there out of men's business.

[Damaris]

No, you don't.

[Rory]

No, you don't.

[Damaris]

You love getting in men's business. You love. You love getting in men's business.

[Mal]

How do I stay my men's.

[Damaris]

Yeah, exactly.

[Mal]

Or y'. All.

[Damaris]

Exactly, Exactly. Men's business, no matter what.

[Mal]

Y' all ain't even got no business.

[Dom]

Who.

[Mal]

What business?

[Rory]

We used to.

[Mal]

Y' all ain't got no business.

[Damaris]

I got a lot of business.

[Dom]

Really?

[Mal]

A lot of business.

[Dom]

Oh, yeah.

[Mal]

That ain't really no fun, though.

[Rory]

Yeah, like, fun business. Like.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Not like healthy dating. I don't want to hear that.

[Damaris]

No, I'm. I'm always healthy dating, though. I don't have no toxic shit.

[Mal]

If you're always healthy dating, then is it really healthy.

[Damaris]

Yeah. Why? Why is it not?

[Mal]

Because what are you dating for? Like, what's the end goal?

[Damaris]

But sometimes the relationship just ends.

[Mal]

Well, it seems like it always. It just ends.

[Damaris]

Yeah. So far.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

One day it won't. One day I'll come in here and y' all know that I'm engaged, and

[Mal]

we will never know that. You would never tell us that.

[Damaris]

I would never tell y' all I'm engaged.

[Rory]

No, I don't think so.

[Damaris]

You don't think I would tell you I'm engaged? Are you just.

[Rory]

I think. I think. I think on a Thursday.

[Damaris]

Thursday, there's no way Rory thinks that I would ever be engaged and he wouldn't know.

[Mal]

I don't think you would come in here and tell us you're engaged. You might text.

[Damaris]

How else would you find out?

[Mal]

You might text royal. Don't say nothing about this, this, and that. Because, like, I just asked this girl to marry me, and I would text.

[Damaris]

Don't say nothing about me being engaged.

[Rory]

I don't know. You do that. I think you'd come here after a Patreon recording on Thursday and say, oh, guys, I.

[Damaris]

Can.

[Rory]

You guys do Monday without me? I have to go to my wedding. Like, that's what I think. That's what I think.

[Mal]

Monday without me.

[Rory]

All right, you'd be like, damn, damn. Yo, you free Mondays. You could rock with them.

[Damaris]

Yeah, get your. All right.

[Rory]

You can rock with them. Funny as.

[Damaris]

All right, that's what y' all think.

[Mal]

You not walking in here and telling us like, y'.

[Damaris]

All.

[Mal]

Like, I proposed last. Like, you not gonna. You're not gonna do it like that.

[Damaris]

You don't think. How do you think I would do it? You don't think I would tell you that I'm engaged?

[Mal]

How would you tell us?

[Rory]

Like, how would you.

[Damaris]

I would probably send a. A college, like, a Call y' all individually or send a message to the chat.

[Rory]

Like, calling people individually is funny.

[Mal]

You ain't gotta call me if you

[Damaris]

get engaged or just text the group chat like, yo, I got engaged today, or whatever. Like.

[Mal]

But I feel like there's so many steps. Like, you would have to tell us you had a girlfriend first, and you don't do that part. So that's why I'm confused. How you just gonna tell us.

[Rory]

Debatable.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Like, I don't. That's debatable.

[Damaris]

I don't think I have to tell you I have a girlfriend.

[Mal]

Like, you were just gonna tell us you're engaged, but not tell us that you Had a girlfriend that you felt.

[Rory]

Sometimes we don't know we have a girlfriend.

[Damaris]

Yeah. And then sometimes your girlfriend be like, she got a boyfriend, so why would

[Mal]

you be getting engaged to her?

[Damaris]

Because you got to find out she don't got a boyfriend. See what I'm saying? Like, once you know she ain't got a boyfriend, it's like, okay, we might as well get engaged.

[Rory]

And even sometimes they got a boyfriend.

[Damaris]

Yeah, but if I get engaged, when

[Mal]

I get engaged, I'll probably have a boyfriend, too.

[Rory]

It's crazy.

[Damaris]

That's what I'm saying. So, I mean, but if I say

[Mal]

yes, then that negates my other relationship. No.

[Damaris]

A man proposing to you.

[Rory]

Are you playing in the wnba?

[Mal]

He might not know. Cause you technically single till you married.

[Damaris]

No, you not.

[Mal]

Would you file on your tax.

[Damaris]

Which one of these hoes posted that and you ran with it? No, that's how. That's out of the whole relationship. That's out of the whole relations book

[Mal]

one, like the irs, the hospital, when I go, yo, unplug him. You ain't his wife. Nah, don't matter. It don't mean.

[Damaris]

I don't mean you single. Who you talking about? You just don't have a contract that says you can make certain decisions. But that'll mean you're single. Like, that's crazy to say you're basically single if you ain't basically single.

[Mal]

Yeah, everybody is technically single.

[Damaris]

We not doing that, baby D. We not doing that.

[Mal]

Listen. I'm not listening. I'm saying legally. Legally, technically, I'm not saying that I abide by those rules, but I'm saying that one could. One could argue.

[Damaris]

One could argue that you're single if you're married.

[Mal]

One could argue that according to the irs, you're single until you marry. Okay, if you single at any. I mean, if you in a relationship, oh, that's my boyfriend. That's my girlfriend. I feel like after 30, it's like at any point you could wake up and she's like, yeah, I don't want nothing to do with you no more. Like, that person can get rid of you. So you do that even when you're married. You can, but there's a little piece of paper, and if you do piece

[Damaris]

of paper, now we just got to go back to court and this, that, and the third.

[Mal]

And you can't just wake up and say that you're done with me. We got a lot of shit to do before you can be done with you.

[Damaris]

I know I can still be done with You.

[Mal]

It's a lot of we got to

[Damaris]

go through, just legally, just paperwork. I could be done with you, though.

[Dom]

Okay.

[Damaris]

I just gotta go. You can be, but I gotta go reverse some. That's all. Yeah, but I'm done with you. That's fine. I could have a whole new girlfriend. Everything.

[Mal]

That's fine.

[Damaris]

Whole new relationship, living with somebody else. Technically, it's just certain things I can't do until this paperwork is a no.

[Mal]

There's a level of commitment in it.

[Damaris]

Yeah. That's all. But it's just paperwork. It's just the government. You can't say the government can't come. The government can't come between this thing called love, though.

[Rory]

They can see what I'm saying.

[Damaris]

No, they can't. You put them between the thing called love. The government can't just jump into your thing called love. You make them a part of that.

[Rory]

Talk to the gays about it.

[Damaris]

That's for another episode. That's Patreon.

[Rory]

We wouldn't know Ma was married. We know he's divorced, though. That we would definitely know.

[Damaris]

Y' all would know. I'm engaged, man. Cut this.

[Rory]

No, I feel like me and Damaris wouldn't, but I feel. Feel like the After Hours crew. Peach and Ryan would definitely know before me.

[Mal]

And Domestic. I will find out about mall wedding because Hop would, like, post something, and

[Damaris]

I would know if I was engaged, bro. Okay.

[Mal]

Well, I mean, thank you.

[Damaris]

I'm just, like, a bad friend. Like, I'm not.

[Rory]

It's a private one, which is fine. It's. That's your choice.

[Damaris]

If I get engaged and don't tell y', all. That's a bad friend. That's a. That's an insane friend. Like, what friend doesn't tell you that he's engaged? Like, yeah, I would tell you I'm engaged. Don't do that.

[Mal]

I don't know if I would tell

[Damaris]

you I was engaged, but we know why you wouldn't tell us. Why we would think you full of shit.

[Dom]

Yeah. You believe.

[Mal]

You wouldn't believe me.

[Damaris]

Yeah. I'm like, she full of shit, man.

[Mal]

I could come with the ring and everything. Y' all see, I would like.

[Damaris]

She full of shit. She done met some and this done bought her a ring, and she just won't take it off. But she ain't in here. Get that man his ring back. Take that ring off, baby. You ain't. That's up.

[Rory]

Oh, I thought about what I want to do for my bachelor party.

[Damaris]

Tell us what you want to do.

[Rory]

That Conversation.

[Mal]

What?

[Rory]

Yo. Professional paintballing hit my algorithms over the weekend. A bachelor paintball tournament. I almost want to, like, feel like we should call out another podcast and, like, take it to the paintball course.

[Mal]

It's a couple niggas I wouldn't mind shooting in podcast.

[Rory]

Yeah, I was. I was watching those warriors. Those are soldiers on that paintball field. That looks like so much fun.

[Mal]

Okay, I'm gonna have to.

[Damaris]

Professional paintballing? Yeah.

[Rory]

I mean, we'd have to start out as amateurs, but I feel like we go up the ranks.

[Damaris]

But what's the difference between professional paintballing and us just going to those mo.

[Rory]

Those are warriors.

[Damaris]

What do you mean?

[Rory]

They storm Coney island like fucking Normandy. Like, no, there's warriors there. Chief Keef is a professional paintballer. I mean, you know, he's had a lot of practice. I didn't say it was going to take me some years to get there.

[Mal]

Chief.

[Rory]

You got to throw me in a certain neighborhood.

[Damaris]

Fortunately, Chief Keef has had a lot of practice to get to with way higher risk.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

A lot more on the line.

[Damaris]

Way higher rifle power, too. Professional paintball. Okay.

[Rory]

No, it looks like a lot of fun. And even if, like, we don't, you know, have, like, a full, full squad, like, we could recruit and just meet, like, other paintballers and, like, start our avengers.

[Mal]

I've always.

[Rory]

But, like, all the WTF media. Like, what's good? Like, I'll see y' all on. On the court tomorrow, man. Like, where's Ednette?

[Mal]

You gotta. You really want some problems? Go up. Go do that with them. From. What's the white podcast company Bar stool. Go.

[Rory]

Go play paintball. But they got power in numbers, too.

[Mal]

That's what I said. Go play paintball with them. Talking about wtf.

[Damaris]

Yeah, we could set up a. We could set up a paintball tournament.

[Rory]

I talked to kfc.

[Damaris]

Kfc.

[Rory]

I'm sure he knows a quality like one in Westchester that we could do.

[Damaris]

Of course. Yeah, definitely.

[Rory]

But, like, I'm down to training. Like, if y' all want.

[Damaris]

How do you train for paintball? Like, don't you just.

[Rory]

Anyway you train for war? Like, we hire some.

[Damaris]

They just send you to water seal. He used to be a tower.

[Rory]

I told you, my cousin is a marine. He could train us to what? Like, he's seen. He's seen battle, the duck. All one in the leg, everything.

[Mal]

Shoot, teach me how to duck.

[Damaris]

But how did. You could hide behind, like, just paint. I don't think that you need to be trained for paintball, there's a course. There's things you could hide behind.

[Rory]

Is like, I actually want to see Maul get lit up with no training. I'm telling you, these guys take. They're curving paintballs and curving. It's Angelina Jolie out there with Morgan Freeman. Look, they got tanks.

[Damaris]

Yeah, but he's out in the middle of the. Look, see, he had. Yeah, I would have been. I would have been hit reverse. Yeah, I don't gotta. I don't gotta like you. I mean, like. Yeah, I don't know if that. Those are too slow. I wouldn't want to be in that.

[Rory]

Well, we could put Ryan, like, in that and just hide behind the tank as he goes, like, forward.

[Damaris]

Yeah, because low payback, little payback.

[Mal]

That would be fun to stream.

[Rory]

And he's, like, used to kamikaze with, like, a GoPro.

[Damaris]

We'll never forget Ryan. Never forget.

[Rory]

Look at the video he pulls up.

[Damaris]

That's sick.

[Rory]

Yo, Ryan. What the.

[Mal]

What was that?

[Rory]

It was Charlie Kirk. What did you Google? I said paintball.

[Mal]

Jesus Christ. I think that that would be fun. Rory, I'm down to do that.

[Rory]

Like, I'm almost down this weekend to, like, maybe test it myself if y' all aren't taking it too seriously. I'm golfing by myself now. Don't think I won't go paintball.

[Mal]

You really. You need to start streaming.

[Rory]

Like, don't let me hit an Outdoor World. I'll get the whole get up. Like, you won't even be able to see me in the bushes.

[Damaris]

Yeah, we gotta get the whole, like, the suits.

[Rory]

Oh, yeah.

[Damaris]

You know what I'm saying? Get the body armor down.

[Rory]

Body armor is crazy. Paintball. I've been hit with paintball. No, they hurt a little bit.

[Damaris]

Yeah, you need the body armor. You need the vest. You need the knee pads.

[Rory]

But, like, I don't want to do it unless you guys really take it seriously. Like, we need radios. We need our own, like, signals, our own calls. Like. Like, if I do this,

[Mal]

I.

[Rory]

Like, you need to know that that means breach the door.

[Damaris]

Preach the door.

[Rory]

I need y' all to take this as seriously. Like, the way. All right? You know how people go through midlife crisis and start doing marathons? My heart legally can't take that.

[Damaris]

Right. So you need.

[Rory]

So I need to do this.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Rory]

And, like, if. If I get a little winded, I could be a sniper. I feel like I know the wind. I could do the clicks.

[Damaris]

Okay, I'm down. I'm definitely down. I'm with you. That's a paintball. That's not a paintball course.

[Rory]

Yes.

[Damaris]

That's not a paintball. Yeah, that's like. That's Ukraine.

[Rory]

That's real war footage. No, but they have set up like that.

[Damaris]

Oh, yeah. I don't want to do that, though. That I'm not doing. But, yeah, I'm down for paintball. Let's set it up. Let's definitely do that.

[Rory]

I think it'd be a lot of fun.

[Damaris]

Hell, yeah.

[Rory]

And we go deep in our. Like, something tells me Biggs knows how to brandish a firearm. Like, I feel like Biggs would be a good person to add to the squad.

[Damaris]

Yeah, we could definitely do it. I'm down with that.

[Mal]

Tell Biggs he can't do paintball with his shirt off, though. Or, like, his little muscle shirt he be wearing.

[Rory]

Yo, doing paintball with shirt off.

[Damaris]

Wait, you think that's an option? Like, what made you. What made you say that?

[Rory]

It's definitely like, no shirt, no shoes, no service, no shoes, put a shirt on, red paintball. But, yeah, that's what I meant to tell you guys over the weekend. Like, if it's not a bachelor party, this may be my new midlife crisis event.

[Damaris]

You want to paintball as a bachelor party? Strippers. Or you paintball against strippers?

[Dom]

Right.

[Rory]

That would be fun.

[Damaris]

And whoever you hit, that's who you get to hit. Like, is it. It's like, no. Okay, never mind. Whatever.

[Mal]

Why you make everything freaky?

[Rory]

It's a bachelor party.

[Damaris]

Strippers at a bachelor party. You think they don't know what they're there for? You think they're there to, like, cook?

[Mal]

You know, the fact that he couldn't think of anything else for women to do.

[Damaris]

Like, what would. What else would a stripper be at a bachelor party for? Just somebody tell me. Give me some options.

[Rory]

Moral support.

[Damaris]

Moral support. Okay.

[Mal]

Talking, mingling.

[Damaris]

Life. I want life advice from a stripper. Okay.

[Mal]

What you trying to say? I don't think strippers have, like, valuable

[Damaris]

life advice for me. I don't think there's anything a stripper could give me advice about. Okay, maybe another woman, you know, trying to figure out her life, but I don't think there's anything a stripper could.

[Rory]

All strippers are doing that to pay their way through college, so they obviously have. Just ask her major, I'm sure.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I'm way past that college threshold, though. I don't.

[Rory]

She'll be a psych major.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I'm cool. Never know, I might be able to help her out, though, show her the ropes. Like, yo, you know this is, you know what's after this, right?

[Rory]

Hiding an engagement just to.

[Damaris]

Just by the sheer numbers. You know what's after this if you don't get out now, right, okay, I've seen it. I'm just saying. I've seen it. I can help the young strippers. Like, listen, if you don't get out now, you know what's after this.

[Rory]

All right, maybe it's a Patreon conversation, but I'll ask you, what do you think the cutoff is of if you don't get out now, you will be selling pussy. I know you're against it now, and you just strip. And that's what you tell your boyfriend as well. Like, what year into the game do you think that they're like, well, all right, I might as well do it.

[Damaris]

If you're, if you're like 23, 24,

[Rory]

still stripping six months into the back room game.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like once you start showing up at

[Dom]

noon,

[Damaris]

like once you're part of the noon shift. Yeah, like when the truck, like when the real truck drivers are there, like,

[Rory]

yeah, like they're in their siesta.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah, you on your way. You about to. You, you on your way. If you part of the nude shift at any strip club. Yeah, yeah, you on your way.

[Rory]

It's coming.

[Damaris]

It's time to get out.

[Mal]

But I think they start you off at noon. Like when you knew. Like, you can't just automatically get the. The.

[Damaris]

Yes, you can.

[Mal]

Really?

[Damaris]

I know plenty of women that started stripping and they was not there at noon. It was there at night. All you do is pay the house fee.

[Rory]

Well, in New York, for sure, it's not like they're doing tricks on the pole. You just gotta show up.

[Damaris]

You just pay your house, you can dance.

[Rory]

Maybe in other cities, yeah, they'd start

[Damaris]

out the noon, like 11:30am Noon.

[Rory]

Somebody's getting.

[Damaris]

And they watching like Judge Judy on the TVs. Yeah, you on your way. You on your way. You don't even know you are now in the queue.

[Rory]

Holy.

[Damaris]

Any moment now, you're going to be right there in that parking lot, going in that, going in that truck with one of them.

[Rory]

It's got to be weird, you know, to be the last person to know you're about to sell.

[Damaris]

Yeah. If you that noon. If you working in the strip club and it's noon, you're on your way. Damn, you in the queue. That's a fact.

[Rory]

Well, Godspeed, man.

[Damaris]

Godspeed.

[Rory]

Do whatever works for you.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I agree.

[Rory]

Mall Are you like me? Do you hate overpaying for great wireless?

[Damaris]

Absolutely.

[Rory]

I was scrolling through the Sprite Living track list the other day and immediately started arguing with myself because certain records like California Love still not a player back then. Of course they are songs, but they're also moments. They're memories. They are in the timeline of hip hop and what was going on at that moment. And that's where Sprite gets into the debate. They've spent over 40 years celebrating artists who define the culture and now they're turning the conversation over to the fans so we can debate in the comments, on pods anywhere we want. We can debate. And if you're like me, the real fun is getting into the why. Why did that song matter? Why did this line hit? Why did it change hip hop forever?

When things move fast, you don't always get a second shot at it. That's why being able to move with it matters. A show guest locks in at the last minute and you want to be ready to record. Or you head out to capture something in the city for a big game and need the right setup to actually get it. That's where Amazon prime comes through. When something comes together quickly, you can get what you need, like an extra mic cord or a portable recorder, or even a jersey to wear for a

[Damaris]

game you're heading to with the same day delivery. Those items show up in time to still make it happen so you can be part of it and capture it while it's going on. Because at that point, it's not just about being there, it's about what you're able to do with the moment. That's what I like about Prime. It makes it easy to say yes when the moment shows up. Same day delivery, it's on Prime. Available in select areas. Terms apply. Visit Amazon.comprime to find millions of items delivered fast.

Hi, Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile. Are you looking for a beach read this summer? May I suggest your big wireless bill?

[Dom]

That's it.

[Rory]

Happy ending, zero tears. Give it a [e-mail] Switch upfront payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months or $180 for a 12 month plan.

We gotta ask Bleak this week. Man, how did this get here? I thought the Bleak versus Yayo Shout

[Damaris]

out to our brothers Yay Yo Uncle Murder. They sat down with million dollars worth of game Shout out to Gillian Wallow and I was confused about this rant that Murder went on only because I think the last time again I could have missed something. I could be wrong, but the last time I think I saw Bleak talking, I know him and Yayo have had their back and forth, and he says some things about G Unit and things like that. But the last one I could remember, I think Bleak said him and Murder was good. They was cool. Thought he said they was cool. He didn't have an issue with Murder. But then Murder, on this last episode of Million Dollars Worth of Game, he felt a different way about it. And. And, you know, he said the only song he ever liked from Bleak is the one that Jay wrote for him.

[Rory]

You're underselling how loud he's yelling this.

[Damaris]

Yeah. No, he was. No, Murder felt away about this. He said Bleak ain't got no fans. He wanted to go bitcoin for bitcoin with Bleak. He wanted to go house for house, bank account for bank account. Murder said he took 15 kids to Disney World. If you've ever done the math on how much it cost to get in

[Rory]

Disney World, it's a lot of money.

[Damaris]

It's a lot of money.

[Rory]

FastPass.

[Damaris]

I don't know. He didn't mention the Fast Pass, but, you know, so I don't know, you know, where this. Why this made the left. But I thought that Bleak said him and Murder was. Was cool. I thought he said they was good. But, you know, obviously Murder felt the way about it, I guess, whatever Bleak had to say about his man Yayo. So, you know, well, hopefully we can ask Bleak this.

[Rory]

This week and figure out and get to the bottom of this. This internal Brooklyn beef.

[Damaris]

Yeah, man.

[Rory]

Cause I mean, I even thought the. And I don't know if it was more. No, I'm not gonna put that on Breakfast Club because they asked a grown man a question. He answered it. I. I thought it was a little corny with Bleak and Yayo going back, to be honest, like, back and forth of. I understand both y' all mans are a list superstar rappers. And I.

[Dom]

Yes.

[Rory]

Didn't like. I just didn't like it. As I said, that's a nasty back and forth to me.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

I was like, oh, we're the friends of the. No, I don't do that back and forth.

[Damaris]

Yeah. I don't.

[Rory]

Yayo ass joints. Bleak has joints.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

I both have good albums.

[Damaris]

Like, yeah, man.

[Dom]

I.

[Damaris]

This is just a very awkward. I don't like necessary.

[Rory]

Makes my skin crawl.

[Damaris]

Like. Yeah, man. I don't know. Shout out. Shout out to our guy J on Murder.

[Rory]

Murder doesn't. Murder doesn't believe that, though. There's no way Uncle Murder doesn't like Bleak's verse on 1 900, hustler. There's no way he said he doesn't like one Bleak verse.

[Damaris]

Maybe he's. Oh, yeah, well, he did say that. I'm about to say. Maybe he thinks that Jay wrote that for him because he said the only song he like for Bleak is the one Jay wrote.

[Rory]

I assumed he was talking about coming of age. Yeah, that's what I was assuming because that's on record. That's that Jay wrote that.

[Dom]

I don't know.

[Rory]

Either way, I. I'm curious to talk to Bleak about this.

[Damaris]

Yeah, this.

[Rory]

This should be interesting.

[Damaris]

Let's see what's. See. Let's see what the. The issue is, and let's try to kumbaya and bring everyone together and, you know, we need more unity in hip hop, man. We don't need all this divisiven.

[Rory]

Yeah. We need. What YG and Game did on Thursday was a great example.

[Damaris]

Yeah. Shout out to Gaming yg, man.

[Rory]

Shout out. Shout out to Don Julio.

[Damaris]

Shout out to yg.

[Rory]

Shout out to Don Patron, whoever it was.

[Damaris]

Yeah, man. Shout out to Gaming yg. I love the fact that they used that moment, that platform to show unity between the city, between Compton. YG gave Game his flowers. Game saluted yg.

[Rory]

He attempted to do the best he could.

[Damaris]

Yeah. I mean, YG let us know that Game was faded. You know what I'm saying? He was a little. He was feeling nice after he took a whole bottle of Don Julio to the face.

[Rory]

The front hump was my favorite with the girl on stage.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

He wasn't from the bahi. He did the front hump. That. That takes dedication.

[Damaris]

Yeah. Yeah. But it was good to see those two guys on stage just celebrating each other and showing respect for each other's contributions to hip hop.

[Rory]

Yeah. No, it was a fun, Fun night to watch.

[Damaris]

Now, I see that. I see that they had YG. The official tally was YG went in 19, 3.

[Rory]

Some shit like that.

[Damaris]

Yeah, I don't know if it was that. Like, I don't. I'm not gonna say bring up. YG won, but 19 to 3 was. That's kind of crazy. Like, come on, man. He definitely won the first round. When he. When YG started with bpt, I was like, yeah, that's. That's a win. I've seen. I've seen what that does in the club in LA when it comes on. So.

[Rory]

And this. This was the voting system that I guess that Apple had. I don't know, man. One Blood versus just Big and Back being blessed. I mean, to me that's just a blood draw at that point.

[Damaris]

Like that's drawn blood.

[Rory]

I mean, One Blood. I get it. I love that. That whole YG album is a classic. Front to back, no skips. But One Blood. Yeah, that's like iconic record.

[Damaris]

YG basically did his My Crazy Life album, right? Was it like.

[Rory]

Yeah, I mean there was some other stuff in there, but he did the entire. But let's not act like Game doesn't have all of documentary that he should have done as well. Yeah, yeah, but it was a fun back and forth and we kind of knew Game was going to make it hilarious, entertaining throughout the entire time.

[Damaris]

Absolutely.

[Rory]

But not while I was watching. I wasn't even thinking about like scoring it.

[Damaris]

No, it was, it was more so like, okay, they just up there having fun, having a party. That's all it was. It was a party, man.

[Rory]

It was cool to watch YG as well. Cuz YG and I are the same age and you know, Documentary came out when we were 15. He was rapping every word to every documentary.

[Damaris]

Oh man, you had.

[Rory]

That was cool to watch because you know yg, I'm sure that was his favorite album.

[Damaris]

Absolutely.

[Rory]

Like so that was kind of cool just to watch. Anytime Game could not get through a verse. YG was right there to wrap everything.

[Damaris]

Yeah, he helped him out after that. Don Julio. I was like, yes. It's gonna, it's gonna get kind of difficult to hear game in about 15 minutes once that shit start warming your body up. I'm like, yeah, they got about, they got about 20 minutes left before this shit might go left.

[Rory]

My favorite part was like LA time. I think it ended at like 7pm and game was that faded and still had to do post game interviews.

[Damaris]

Still had to do some inter at Apple. But you know, he. Listen, man, he was having a good time, he was having fun. And like I said, it wasn't a. It wasn't a battle. It was more so of just, you know, a party with him and YG and you know, the city of Compton being represented from two different generations and both of them showing love and appreciation for what they've accomplished. So shout out to Apple music, shout out to versus shout out to Game, shout out to YG and shout out to the, you know, the audience, man. Cause it was, it was a party in there.

[Rory]

19 to three is crazy.

[Damaris]

Yeah, but 19 three, I don't know if I'm scoring it. That's. That's crazy. Not and not 19 3. It wasn't. It wasn't that, but it was. It was good, though. They played. It was a lot of good records. I forgot how many. I actually didn't. But hearing that many YG records got joints. You really realize how many records YG has. Like, he has a lot of records.

[Rory]

Just go to a club in LA on any night. Yeah. You'll remember how many. And they put out a record with Timberland and Swizz produced same day. They did the complex cover. It was cool. I like. I liked this version of it.

[Damaris]

Yeah, this.

[Rory]

This made. This gave some hope to Versus, in my opinion. But, I mean, I don't know how often you're gonna get this type of scenario.

[Damaris]

Yeah, no, this is.

[Rory]

This.

[Damaris]

Yes. This is not something that can happen much. But it was dope. Like, when we. It was first announced, I don't think any of us ever thought about Game and YG doing a version.

[Rory]

Never crossed my mind.

[Damaris]

But once they did it and you saw what it was, it was like, okay, this makes. This makes a lot of sense.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

And they got it done right. They did it the right way.

[Rory]

Were you surprised by the name of the record they put out?

[Damaris]

No. Red People. No, that's on Brand. That's on Brand.

[Rory]

What are we gonna do for the artwork?

[Damaris]

Fits the aesthetic of these two gentlemen. And the record is hard. This is a sample that we know. We used to. But, you know, they was on there talking they shit. They got their shit off on there.

[Rory]

Yeah, I fucked with it. Oh, you Philly fans, I'd love to see it.

[Damaris]

Oh, man, the barbershops is packed.

[Rory]

Oh, you Philly fans. Oh, my God.

[Damaris]

Ye.

[Rory]

I was actually a little nervous about the Philadelphia 76ers even before Bron got there. I said, wow's the squad. If they can stay healthy, Bron goes there. Oh, Nick's definitely got some comp. That's a squad now. With all these moves you guys are making, I'm not worried at all. Governor Shapiro deemed it LeBron James Day in Pennsylvania. He hasn't even played a game.

[Damaris]

He hasn't even got there yet. He hasn't even stepped in for me.

[Rory]

Does Allen Iverson have a day? No. He doesn't answer. No. Does Dr. J have a day?

[Damaris]

Probably not.

[Rory]

He does not.

[Damaris]

But LeBron James, though, even though he hasn't played one minute, the way y'

[Rory]

all are acting makes me the most unscared Nick fan of all time. You guys are getting so far ahead of yourselves. LeBron is in New York Right now, he's not even in fucking Philly.

[Mal]

Really.

[Damaris]

Right.

[Rory]

I was nervous about the squad. And I guarantee you, knowing Philadelphia fans, game one, opening day in South Philadelphia, they're going to treat that day like they just won the. The NBA championship. They're gonna act that way. They're gonna run around the court with a flag. LeBron's. They'll probably retire his number. They'll probably. They'll probably put a banner up there on game one, like, they just won last year. That's how they're acting right now.

[Damaris]

They should have the Knicks play the Sixes first game.

[Rory]

That'd be incredible.

[Damaris]

Season open at the Garden. Let the Knicks get their rings in front of LeBron and the Sixers. Yeah, I like it. I like it, I like it.

[Rory]

If the Sixers were stage, if they

[Damaris]

were acting sets the tone. I like it.

[Rory]

If they were acting just a little bit humble and, like, knowing that the squad that they have, I'd be scared of the Sixers. This is. This is embarrassing, how they're acting.

[Damaris]

I mean, it's a big. It's, you know, it's one of the greatest players ever going to a city that is a very big basketball city, big sports town, you know, I understand it.

[Rory]

Does Donovan McNabb have a day?

[Damaris]

He needs one. No, he does not, but he definitely needs one. But this is probably the team that. I think me and Pete spoke about it, that this was the team that probably made the most sense for LeBron. Like, looking at the roster, looking at the lineup that they had. Once Jaylen Brown went there, it made the most sense for LeBron to go there as far as just fitting into a team. But if I'm being honest, I think it's nasty, though.

[Rory]

It's nasty.

[Damaris]

I think seeing, like, all of the, you know, the AI generated pictures of him in the Sixers jersey already. Like, just seeing The Sixers on LeBron, it's just. It looks nasty. I'm gonna just be honest. It looks nasty. You know, not speaking about whether it works, whether they win or not, you know, that's to be determined. You know, a lot of variables that go into that. Can they stay healthy? Can they. They, you know, develop chemistry and all of those things, but just the aesthetic of seeing LeBron and the Sixers jersey, something just doesn't feel right about that.

[Mal]

They gonna call you a hater?

[Damaris]

No, I'm not hating. I'm just saying, looking at the pictures, it's like I'm hating. It just doesn't. It doesn't look. It doesn't look right.

[Rory]

It just.

[Damaris]

It just takes. It takes some time. I mean, he didn't look right look in a Lakers jersey either, as far as I'm concerned. So, I mean, that took time to get used to, but just seeing them in the Sixes, it's just something about it is just like. It just doesn't feel right.

[Rory]

And again, I wasn't hating until I saw how Philly fans were acting. But that's on par for Philly fans. Individually, they're great human beings. Together, they're the worst group of people I've ever been around in my life. So it doesn't shock me that they're acting the way they're acting. I just think they're setting themselves up for failure. And I'm not really a LeBron legacy guy, because I really feel like LeBron is already one of the goats solidified. He had one of the most amazing careers. But this would hurt more than help in the scenarios. If he wins a championship, of course, tied with Kobe, tied with Tim Duncan, it definitely helps his career no matter what. But if he loses, I think it hurts more than it would have helped if he won. Because if you go to the. On paper, one of the best teams in the east to ring chase, which I also hate that term because who isn't ring chasing? But it's. Yeah, I think it hurts more than helps.

[Damaris]

If he does win the championship, then it's very interesting because he would have won in every Jersey, every city he played in.

[Rory]

Fire.

[Damaris]

Y' all know how I feel about the bubble ring, but whatever.

[Rory]

It counts.

[Damaris]

Yeah, to some. To some, I don't think. To the, you know, the legends of the game, I don't think that ring counts, but to some accounts. Right. But if he wins in Philly, it adds to his legacy for sure.

[Rory]

Yeah, no, it definitely does, but.

[Damaris]

But I'm on the same side. If he loses and doesn't win in Philly with hurts with this team, with this starting five, then it definitely hurts his legacy as well. I don't want to hear a guy, oh, he's 42. He's 43. What do you want him to do? No, no, no, no, no. Know, because if they pop champagne and win it all, y' all gonna claim. No, he's 43. He was still won a ring. So it gotta be the same to going the other way. If they lose and they don't win a ring, it has to be the same energy. So either way, LeBron James is officially a Philadelphia 76er.

[Rory]

Yo, na naaman, and we don't know if it's true, if he's gonna live in New York, but naming LeBron James day. And then the very next day, LeBron James decides to commute from New York.

[Dom]

Work.

[Rory]

Is he. He's only paying entertainment tax in your state at that point.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

He doesn't get a day. What is he contributing to this thing?

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's a little nasty. Give him a day.

[Rory]

That's. That's disgusting.

[Damaris]

He hasn't even ran out the tunnel yet. Like, come on.

[Rory]

Yeah, he's giving. He's giving Mandami and Brunson more money than he's giving you.

[Damaris]

Yeah, like that's, that's just a little. It's a little nasty. But I understand the excitement behind it. Anytime you get a player that has had the career that LeBron has had, that get a chance to see them in your city and on your team, you get excited about it. So I understand it.

[Dom]

Why.

[Rory]

Why would.

[Damaris]

They still got to go out and play though? They got a mesh. They got to stay healthy. You know, they. It's still. Still a lot that has to be done, so.

[Rory]

Still need Jaylen Brown Day

[Damaris]

you do in Philly?

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Dom]

Why?

[Rory]

It's for the chemistry purposes.

[Damaris]

Oh, like Jayla might get mad about that. Yeah. But just nothing. There's nothing Jalen can do about this, though.

[Rory]

Why do you think he would want to live in New York and commute every day?

[Damaris]

I mean, I think that is, you know, it's New York.

[Rory]

He said he's locked in. I loved his speech on Twitter. I believed him. Locked in. Wants to give it one more go. Why wouldn't you just find yourself a nice little compound in Cherry Hill, New Jersey and just focus on basketball now you in Manhattan every day.

[Damaris]

Yeah,

[Rory]

that's. That's rough for non famous people.

[Damaris]

Take the chopper down the turnpike, you know, you'll be there in about 45 minutes.

[Mal]

Every day, though, that, that, that's a.

[Rory]

I think living in the city just is. I think that's rough for, for Knicks. Like, you don't even play in that city.

[Damaris]

I don't know.

[Mal]

Is he gonna stay in Manhattan? Like sometimes people say they gonna live in New York City and they really live in Jersey.

[Damaris]

No, he's not staying in New York.

[Rory]

If you're living in North Jersey, you might as well live in South Jersey and just be in Philadelphia.

[Damaris]

I think that he will be living in Manhattan.

[Rory]

That's the only purpose that you would do that. Doing all that. To live in North Jersey is like for What?

[Damaris]

Yeah, I think he'll be living in Manhattan. I don't think that he's going to be living in Jersey, and I think he'll be living in Manhattan and, you know, take the chopper right on the west side highway every day. Fly down, you know, fly down the turnpike.

[Dom]

Right.

[Damaris]

45 minutes.

[Mal]

There's just so much.

[Damaris]

Sometime it take you 45 minutes to get from the. The west side to the street.

[Rory]

Yeah. If he was playing in the Barclays, it may take longer.

[Mal]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Damaris]

So, I mean, you know, little. Little helicopter ride down.

[Rory]

The man in me is happy for LeBron, though. Got away from his kid. Doesn't bother him at practice. You know, he finally gets, like, maybe two years for himself as a man. Man get his own little man cave. He married his high school sweetheart. I know he's in love. I'm not saying Brown's gonna do anything nasty like a bachelor pad, but I think he deserves, after the dedication he did, two years farther away from his family. Every man deserves to abandon their family for, like a year.

[Damaris]

His family's still gonna be with him. He has his wife, his daughter.

[Rory]

Are they gonna stay in la?

[Damaris]

No.

[Rory]

How's his daughter? Is she in school? She got friends?

[Damaris]

I would assume so, yeah.

[Rory]

Yeah. She might wanna stay in LA then.

[Mal]

Yeah. But I don't see Savannah staying in la.

[Damaris]

Hell, no.

[Mal]

Savannah's coming to New York.

[Damaris]

She will be in New York City.

[Rory]

She ducked it out in Cleveland.

[Mal]

That's probably one of the reasons why he wants to stay in Manhattan. That'll probably be easier for her. She has her own business, her own podcast now.

[Damaris]

Listen, can't podcast in Philadelphia.

[Mal]

I mean, you can, but who the fuck wants to do that?

[Damaris]

Gillian Wallow do.

[Rory]

I'm sure they got a way smaller overhead than us. I'd love to do it.

[Damaris]

Yeah. Why not?

[Mal]

No, you wouldn't.

[Rory]

But now that I think about it, like, yeah, we love. When Melo came here, that was probably because Lala wanted to be back in New York City. We never really give the wives too much credit in that, but. Yeah, that's more of a market decision than anything.

[Damaris]

No, but he said. He said this was a family decision. Yeah, that's what took him so long. Wanted to figure out what his daughter wanted to do, obviously his wife, you know, it's a lot that goes into that decision of picking up and moving. So he made his decision. He would be in Philly. And that. That does feel like a wife thing. Like, I ain't living in Philly, though.

[Dom]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Like, I could definitely Get a wife. Like, I'll go to the east coast. But like, we living in Manhattan, but like the outskirts of Pennsylvania. Even though Philly is nice.

[Rory]

I was about to say, like, of course, there's nothing like Manhattan that.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

In the entire world. I understand that part, but acting like Philly is really just like some third rate city. Like.

[Damaris]

No, but I mean, you could have

[Rory]

a beautiful life in Philly, but in

[Damaris]

comparison to Manhattan, of course, if it just costs us a 45 minute helicopter ride every day, they got it.

[Rory]

I mean, that's his salary. I think he needs it. But are they shooting a dock around this whole thing? That's probably why they need the air time. They need those 45 minutes every day to film.

[Damaris]

They got to get the. The beat, the B roll of Manhattan skyline, you know, they got to get all of that landing in Philadelphia, you know.

[Rory]

Oh, yeah.

[Damaris]

I think the arena has a helipad on the roof. That's fire. I think so. If not flat.

[Rory]

If not have like a flat roof like that.

[Damaris]

They'll make it happen for.

[Rory]

Well, there's that. I mean, they have the whole sports compound. Is there. I'm sure somewhere they could put a helipad. Oh, so they practice in Camden, though.

[Dom]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

And it's a helipad in Camden at the. At the facility. I ain't gonna lie, man. I get it. But that causes a little. Your teammates start looking at you a little like, this nigga's a diva, bro. You flying in every day on a helicopter. Like, come on, fam, you better not miss no free throws. You flying in every day. We down two. You better hit both of these motherfuckers. If I'm on that team, you better knock both of these down. You got the helicopter waiting for you to go back to Manhattan and we down two. You at the free throw line. This better be cash. We better win this fucking game.

[Rory]

Didn't that happen with Barry Bonds and the Giants? If I remember, I was young, but didn't he, like, take another car and not the bus? I felt like there was some big controversy. Like before the steroids that he got on his diva. And there was. There was problems in the locker room. It wasn't feeling buried.

[Damaris]

That. Yeah, I mean, it's natural, man. Like, you know, if we a team, let's be a team. Like, you can't get on a helicopter every day and get up out of here.

[Rory]

But if everyone. Nah, if everyone else is getting in their cars to go home or their car services, there's no big difference there.

[Damaris]

Yeah, but it's just. I'm telling you, man, it's. The ego is fragile when it comes to athletes and all of these players, like, it's fragile egos, man. And this will. This would have been the first time that LeBron would do something like this, you know what I'm saying? Where he's not living. Actually living in the city he plays in. So, you know, just. It's just a lot of different variables to kind of throw in there. But either way it goes, he made the decision. He will be with the Philadelphia 76ers. And, you know, I think the 76ers have quickly become the favorite to win it all.

[Rory]

Yeah. This year, which is crazy, but I heard their third. They're third.

[Damaris]

OKC and San Antonio still got it. Nicks and Sixers are tied.

[Rory]

Okay, well, I was. I was speaking specifically to the Eastern Conference, but. Yeah, I don't know, man. You've seen. You've seen Brunson under the umbrella this weekend. Does he look fazed? No, I don't. I don't even think he knows. Yeah, I think he even knows that Braun went to the Sixers. Like, that's. That's how locked into his own.

[Dom]

Him.

[Damaris]

He doesn't care. He doesn't care. I did see that. I've seen the. The difference between being a Nick, getting into the clubs now and being a net. It's a. It's a big. It's a big difference. They. They tell you right this way, sir. When you're a Nick. When you're a net.

[Rory]

New Yorker. Right there.

[Damaris]

When you're a net, it's. Who you here with? Who sent you? Yeah.

[Rory]

While we're talking about the NBA, I do want to thank the wnba. Because of the All Star Game, Peach was able to provide us with an ice cream social today with his winnings, Peach won a hundred dollars by betting on the WNBA All Star Game. He bet the low.

[Damaris]

Peach is deep in the streets.

[Dom]

Boy.

[Rory]

Well, look at that. We gotta. We gotta ice cream.

[Damaris]

Listen, man. Ice cream social out of it. I'll take it. Peace. Thank you very much.

[Rory]

I appreciate that about Peach, though. Anytime. He wins. He. He's. He's very. He's a socialist. Yeah, man, but see, puts it right back into this.

[Damaris]

Capitalist and a socialist. Yeah.

[Rory]

Yo, who puts it right back in the community for sure.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Who would have thought the WNBA All Star weekend would be crazier than an NBA All Star weekend?

[Damaris]

I could see it, though.

[Rory]

Why?

[Damaris]

You know, listen, man, women get horny, too. That's. That's all it is.

[Rory]

There's a lot. A lot of parties, a lot of alcohol involved in an all star weekend.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah.

[Rory]

Everyone takes a break, you know, relax a little bit.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah.

[Rory]

Everyone sees each other. We're all in the same small city right here.

[Mal]

Chicago.

[Rory]

Yeah, Chicago is a big city. But all stars get very small, though. Same six blocks.

[Damaris]

It's all star weekend. Six blocks, same old city gets very small when it's all star weekend.

[Rory]

Oh, it got messy. It got messy that I don't even know where the mess. Usually you can find out where the mess came from.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

This just sparked out of nowhere. Dijona is how you pronounce it.

[Damaris]

Damaris, Dejanae.

[Mal]

Dijonay.

[Rory]

They was calling it dijon on the timeline.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Mal]

No, Dijonay.

[Rory]

Dijonay. Okay. She went out and tweeted, hey, since we want to get our LOLs off, can you make that a little bit bigger?

[Mal]

My girl says, since won't be funny today, I'm gonna be hilarious. Yes. Melissa cheated on me with deja Kelly and Aaliyah Nye and many more. She said many more. Like, it was like, plus, plus, plus. Yeah. Poor baby.

[Rory]

Were you aware of us at least? A slim iceberg over there. I wasn't familiar with her game.

[Damaris]

I wasn't familiar with her game on and off the court. I wasn't familiar.

[Rory]

Cause that. That's a big three right there.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's a nice little rotation.

[Rory]

That's nothing to cough at.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's a nice little rotation. Pretty women right there.

[Dom]

Yeah.

[Rory]

And two rooks. You already dipping in the rookie pool? Doing a little grooming.

[Damaris]

Get them early. Get them early. They know not what they do.

[Mal]

Stop.

[Damaris]

They know not what's about to happen.

[Rory]

Let me show you the ropes, right?

[Damaris]

Let me show you.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Little rookie hazel rookie hazing, you know, I mean, little rookie glazing. It's all the same. You know what I'm saying? It's all the same. It is what it is.

[Mal]

I just feel like that's so bold, like, to be like.

[Damaris]

And they on the same team.

[Rory]

They do tiktoks together. No one confirmed. Denied if this was all all at one time or separately. But the way they did the TikTok dances, it looks like they have chemistry. And if your girl go to the aces, that's not your girl anymore.

[Dom]

Anymore.

[Damaris]

Right.

[Rory]

That's what I learned through this entire thing after they did the whole family tree of cheating. If your queen go to Vegas, she's not your queen anymore. She belongs to the aces. And To Melissa.

[Damaris]

Yeah. Now listen. Bullshitting. She out there taking them down. I ain't know. I ain't know she was running through the league like that.

[Mal]

Me either. It sucks because they were such a cute couple. Everybody was calling them goals and stuff.

[Damaris]

Well, that always happens, y'.

[Mal]

All.

[Damaris]

Y' all be quick to call a couple goals, and then when they break up and go through some messy shit, y' all be like, ah, that's crazy. They was just goals, though. I did it with Cardi and offset. They was goals for years.

[Rory]

They still are.

[Damaris]

Well, depending on what your goal is. Yes.

[Rory]

Like, all right. I would have traded for the angel of Death for Nalissa if I knew she was putting up these type of numbers off the court. She would be worth trading with Russia.

[Damaris]

And there is. There is something to say about her only averaging 0.8 assists. I mean, she don't pass.

[Rory]

No, that's hers.

[Damaris]

Them. Yeah, that's.

[Mal]

She.

[Damaris]

She hold the balls. I'm just saying. She averaged 0.8 assists per game.

[Rory]

Six boards, though.

[Damaris]

Yeah, six boards. You know, I mean, she gonna grab a rebound. Yeah, okay. Yeah, I get it.

[Rory]

And I knew she was really like that.

[Dom]

That.

[Rory]

Not because of. Of. Clearly her. Her roster, which. Her number should be retired. She got on. On stream and didn't deny a thing. She did the. The best master manipulator thing you could do. Put on a red tie like you're in court to make a mockery of everything.

[Damaris]

Yep.

[Rory]

Start there, because now we're laughing. Now we don't even care. Before, we were like, damn, why would she do that to Dijon? Like, we was feeling bad. But then when we see someone make a mockery of it, now we're laughing at the other girl.

[Dom]

Girl.

[Rory]

And she brought up a great point, which master manipulators do, especially on stream on their chair.

[Damaris]

Yes.

[Rory]

I thought she was in a happy relationship. Why are you bringing up some from a year ago?

[Damaris]

Oh, that's. That's the.

[Rory]

I thought she was in a happy.

[Dom]

Oh.

[Rory]

Then I started sitting. I was like, wait, she's in a happy relationship?

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Why are you bringing this up?

[Mal]

Because the scene.

[Damaris]

And wait, that's master manipulation.

[Rory]

I take it back. She did something even. This is like elite level manipulation. She said whether she cheated on me or I cheated on her. You in a relationship, she even throw the option out that maybe she was the one that cheated and it wasn't me. As a manipulator, you have to throw out both sides in a hypothetical, whether she cheated or I cheated.

[Damaris]

No. Nalissa. She's good. She's good.

[Mal]

She's not good.

[Damaris]

She's. That. She's good. That's some great manipulation right there.

[Mal]

No, it's not.

[Damaris]

Because that. That. That just opens up so much. What ifs?

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

And what's the truth?

[Mal]

If you can point out the manipulation, it's not good. Manipulation.

[Damaris]

No, because we know manipulation.

[Rory]

Those rookies couldn't.

[Damaris]

Those rookies don't know manipulation. They. They don't know what's going on. But Nelissa, that's good, though. That's like, manipulation. Textbook stuff right there. Just create the doubt on the other side, too. I thought you in the happy villa. What? Why are we even doing them? Why are we putting people's business out now? Dijonay looked like she did something wrong, so you just wanna create that doubt, that's all. Manipulating manipulators just need that window of doubt to crack just a little bit for the lies to seep through. Just open that window a little bit.

[Mal]

What stuck out to me is when Dijonay made this tweet and she said, well, since y' all wanna be funny, I'm gonna be hilarious. Which means that something provoked her. It wasn't just, oh, I'm happy in my relationship, and I'm still thinking about myself.

[Damaris]

But we never see that. See, that's manipulating.

[Rory]

That's why the mask manipulator.

[Damaris]

You don't.

[Rory]

True. We didn't know where to start.

[Mal]

You throw the rock and hide your hand, It's a dog whistle. So whatever triggered her was made specifically just for her. And then when she reacts publicly, everybody's like, whoa, where'd that come from? And it's like, oh, you don't see where I was shot at? Like, because the silencer was on. When I take this motherfucking bazooka out, everybody just thinking I'm shooting first.

[Damaris]

I'm wrong.

[Rory]

And then she did. The best way to, like, wrap up everything when you're a manipulator, like, you have to be the more mature, bigger person. Like. Like, at the end of the day, why are we bringing this to the Internet?

[Damaris]

Yeah, this is, like, why it's messy.

[Rory]

Some real immature like this. Why? I don't even, like, mess with people like that.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Like, why are we even doing this? Right? I'm focused on the game.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah, The X's and O's, right? Oh, Melissa's good. She's good.

[Rory]

Who's that? Gm. I feel bad for the GM because the GM has to move a lot of pieces around. Once she gets to the locker room.

[Damaris]

Yeah, you can't sit.

[Rory]

You can't keep a. You can't keep a five person squad.

[Damaris]

That way neither of the rookies on the team anymore.

[Rory]

Yeah, up and out of here. And when she was in a relationship before that, they had got traded. No, that's a sniper. So Dijon was in the locker room.

[Damaris]

Djanay's new girlfriend, Jack, is Jackie Young. And she's on the Aces.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Rory]

And you. Who do you think's in her sights now?

[Damaris]

Okay, listen, man, that's Willie Beeman. Women can get messy too. That's all this is. The women can get messy.

[Mal]

Oh, for sure.

[Damaris]

We talk about all the NBA mess. No, no, let's. Let's eat them each other too though, huh?

[Rory]

Yeah, but not probably. Not at the. I'm sure they probably are, but not at the rate that I think the WNBA is each other. That's got to be the hot sports.

[Mal]

I'd love to be invited to those parties.

[Damaris]

The WNBA parties. Why, Damaris, would you want to talk the X's and O's of the game or.

[Mal]

Yeah, for sure.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Rory]

See how the sausages made.

[Mal]

Just teach me a couple moves, you

[Damaris]

know, couple jab steps, how to box out, hit the glass. Yeah, I'll get it.

[Mal]

It.

[Damaris]

I get it. Makes sense.

[Rory]

Do you have the. The family tree? Because there were some NBA players that were involved in this as well. Because some, yeah, some. Some are switch hitters.

[Mal]

Calling. Calling bisexual women switch hitters is funny as hell.

[Rory]

So. Yeah, some. Some NBA players got involved in this,

[Mal]

allegedly because we don't know who's really who. This is just the Internet.

[Damaris]

Yeah, this is all like, like, like, like Melissa said, you know, this is all just filibuster.

[Rory]

This is trying to distract us from the game.

[Damaris]

Yeah, this is just talk. This is malarkey. Let's focus on the All Star weekend.

[Rory]

But it kind of had me thinking, like in watching some of the highlights of the All Star game, you got. You're into sports. If one of them got like a Kylie Jenner body, would it mess with their efficiency on the court? Like, like. Yeah, like, what if Caitlin Clark just showed up coming out of off season and just had the Kylie Jenner, like, would that affect her three point game, do you think?

[Damaris]

Yeah, because the recovery time is a few months.

[Rory]

But she's doing the off season.

[Damaris]

Yeah, but the off season is not long enough. You need like months of recovery from that.

[Rory]

Hypothetically, like two months.

[Mal]

Not that long.

[Rory]

Well, depends on which is the right wellness.

[Damaris]

One you get your boobs done. You can't take offensive foul once you get your boobs done.

[Rory]

Nah, they take. They do it like this.

[Damaris]

No, that ain't gonna be enough. That's not enough after a boob job. And then if you get a bbl, like you got the faja on, you can't really jab and faja. You can't box. You can box out.

[Rory]

No, but once it's healthy.

[Damaris]

Oh, once you're fully healed.

[Rory]

That's what I'm saying.

[Damaris]

But I'm saying that's not. Two months is not enough time to be fully healed from like a complete three. What they call 360.

[Mal]

Well, lipo 360 or mommy makeover.

[Damaris]

Mommy makeover, whatever you want to call it. They're gay, so I don't know if the mommy thing.

[Rory]

I just. I don't think we're that far away from seeing like a woman come to game one. It's like with a full bbo, I think we're a few ways a few years away from that.

[Damaris]

We haven't seen it yet.

[Rory]

I think she'll be.

[Damaris]

We've seen maybe a boob job maybe.

[Rory]

Definitely some boob jobs here and there. I'm saying like a full on Dr. Miami.

[Damaris]

Like, who is that?

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

There is no official or verified information showing that any WNBA player has undergone a Brazilian butt lift.

[Rory]

I'm. I'm saying full blown, like. And they're in shape. Maybe took fat from like one of her fat homegirls and put it in it. That's the type of video.

[Damaris]

That's how it works. I don't know if that's. You can do that.

[Rory]

They do that in the Bronx.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's. You don't want in private residence.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

In the basement. You don't want to caught all those

[Rory]

people in Queens putting the. They line the bathtubs with in girl's asses.

[Damaris]

Yeah. That's crazy time you want to ask that bad you put anything in this.

[Rory]

But yeah. This is nuts. I can't even keep up with this tree.

[Damaris]

Listen, it's a small circle, man. The NBA and the wnba, very small circles. A lot of these athletes went to the same colleges, same high schools. They know each other. Some of them have the same agents. It's a very small circle when you really get down to it. So I understand how there can be some crossover with dating and things like that. But you know, I mean, it's fun. It's all entertainment. I think this is marketing. It helps to. It helps the league. You Know, I mean, like, people have more eyes on it now. Like, oh, word. I gotta watch these girls now. They dating different women. The same women on the same team. I think it helps the league. I think it's all healthy marketing for the wnba.

[Rory]

I mean, listen, they could do another version of Basketball Wives.

[Damaris]

No, this is the real basketball.

[Rory]

Yes, I'm saying, like some real love island in the locker room. Yeah, that would get crazy ratings.

[Damaris]

Oh, absolutely.

[Rory]

I mean, they tried it with the race war and got ratings, but they gotta. They have to find a new trick.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Dom]

Yeah.

[Damaris]

Is Kayin Clark gay? She's not.

[Mal]

He said no.

[Damaris]

Okay.

[Rory]

She focused on the game, bro.

[Damaris]

Yeah, she's. She got time for dating. You hoop like that, you ain't got time for that.

[Rory]

Can you imagine if she stepped out with a bbl?

[Damaris]

No. Wouldn't want to see that at all. Nah, Nah.

[Rory]

What. What did you guys. You guys put me on the term. What are they called? The white girls?

[Mal]

Pogs.

[Rory]

Yeah, like, what if she came?

[Damaris]

What?

[Mal]

Pogs.

[Damaris]

Oh, pogs. I think you said hogs. I must say, they are not calling white girls with big asses hogs. Like, who is doing that

[Rory]

2027 season? Like, pogged out. Like. Like good Pog. Like, damn, who is that?

[Damaris]

That would take away from the shot. It's too much. The base becomes.

[Rory]

What if she carried it well? Like, what if she had a good trainer?

[Damaris]

Base is too heavy. It's too. It left. You ain't got to have that lift on the shot. It's too heavy. Too heavy on the base. You don't need that. Keep it light.

[Rory]

They couldn't throw around the way they do.

[Damaris]

Keep the frame light. Keep the frame light and tight and, you know, just keep knocking down the J. That's all.

[Rory]

I like Caitlyn Clark, man.

[Damaris]

I love her. I love Caitlyn Clark's game. Love her game.

[Rory]

How did she win? No, she didn't win. Mvp.

[Damaris]

No.

[Rory]

Stewie hometown.

[Mal]

Oh, Juno Jones. Okay.

[Rory]

Peach bet on that. That's how we got the sprinkles. That MVP as well.

[Mal]

Stewie is from upstate too, baby. Know that.

[Damaris]

Brianna Stewart. He's nice. That's Yukon legend. Yeah, that's Syracuse UConn legend, sir. She's from Syracuse.

[Rory]

Oh, then you know she messy.

[Mal]

North Syracuse, baby. Brianna Stewart.

[Damaris]

I remember when she was with the Yukon. That's crazy.

[Mal]

I remember when she was playing.

[Damaris]

How they let. How they let that slip.

[Rory]

Yeah, that is kind of why.

[Damaris]

Yeah, whatever she wanted. They supposed to show up with that duffel bag. The same one Karisha had.

[Rory]

How? I mean, is Syracuse women basketball good?

[Damaris]

Not better than Yukon? Well, of course not, but. Nah, I don't think they're. They're that good.

[Rory]

Okay.

[Mal]

I mean, they had a year or two where they were decent, but yeah,

[Damaris]

Yukon is good every year.

[Rory]

The Orange woman. That sounds weirder. I can see why that didn't work.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Yeah. But yeah. Shout out to Shout out to Syracuse, man.

[Damaris]

Shout out. Brianna Stewart, Lady Liberty.

Mall. I was scrolling through the Sprite Living track list the other day and immediately started arguing with myself because certain records like Californ Love still not a player back then. Of course they are songs, but they're also moments, they're memories. They are in the timeline of hip hop and what was going on at that moment. And that's where Sprite gets into the debate. They've spent over 40 years celebrating artists who define the culture, and now they're turning the conversation over to the fans so we can debate in the comments, on pods, anywhere we want, we can debate. And if you're like me, the real fun is getting into the why? Why did that song matter? Why did this line hit? Why did it change hip hop forever?

[Damaris]

Rory, I can't promise you any answers, but with Sprite you'll have a good time figuring it out. Check out the full Sprite Living Track List and break down the stories behind your favorite bars@livingtracklist genius.com this is the Sprite Living Track List. Obey your thirst.

When things move fast, you don't always get a second shot at it. That's why being able to move with it matters. A show guest locks in at the last minute and you want to be ready to record. Or you head out to capture something in the city for a big game and need the right setup to actually get. That's where Amazon prime comes through. When something comes together quickly, you can get what you need, like an extra mic cord or a portable recorder, or even a jersey to wear for a

[Damaris]

game you're heading to with the same day delivery. Those items show up in time to still make it happen so you can be part of it and capture it while it's going on. Because at that point it's not just about being there, it's about what you're able to do with the moment. That's what I like about Prime. It makes it easy to say yes when the moment shows up. Same day delivery, it's on Prime Available in select areas. Terms apply. Visit Amazon.comprime to find millions of items delivered fast this summer.

[Rory]

We've all been there. We've had seasons that have shaken everything. The question is what remains when the shaking stops? Hi, I'm Gary Valenciano and on my podcast Unshaken with Gary Vee, I sit down with amazing personalities and we talk about the seasons that nearly broke them. The lows that carried them to their highs. Listen to Unshaken with Gary Vee on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Did you guys see Jack Harlow's trying to. Trying to dabble. I think he was checking the temperature he put out. He put out some little snippets where it's a good mixture. It's still in. In, you know, the neo soul sound that he created. But he's rapping a little bit more on it. Like he's trying to merge the two fan bases. But he's rapping again. It doesn't sound bad. Can we have low volumes? I don't think we'll get flag.

[Mal]

Why is that hat?

[Rory]

I feel like rollout happened. We can move on to the next look.

[Damaris]

Known as Remy Shan.

[Rory]

Still in the vibe. Maybe you should move on.

[Damaris]

It's time to get you move on.

[Rory]

I guess I am your ex boyfriend.

[Damaris]

I'm not your new one. But you on one of these lanes.

[Rory]

You want someone with some nuance. It's on the level. You want speak it to your flu

[Damaris]

might have to be in that kind of like it. Not bad.

[Rory]

I'm not mad.

[Damaris]

I would like it better if that was wild. But you know that's.

[Rory]

That's gonna be the next rollout. He's gonna.

[Damaris]

While they're gonna be in a remix.

[Rory]

No, he's gonna be.

[Damaris]

Jack Harlow's gonna be Wale. Okay, all right. I get it. I get it.

[Rory]

You're not seeing the vision.

[Damaris]

No, no, I get it.

[Mal]

I get it.

[Damaris]

Yeah. It's not bad though. It's not bad. It's a little more palatable than Monica was. Monica was a little, you know, wasn't terrible music, but it was definitely like way off brand for Jack Harlow. But. But this is a little more. I see what he's doing. Like you said, he's trying to merge the two. Like he know he gotta come back a little further on this side. Like give us more hip hop than that.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

Little samples that have gotten him to the top mall. Since both you and I don't have a college degree and now that Cheyenne Bryant's college is actually registered as of May 2026, you think you and I could like, maybe go get some degrees?

[Damaris]

I mean, if. If Dr. Cheyenne Bryant can get a degree in cap and gown.

[Rory]

120 on Amazon. Are you gonna invest in your future or not?

[Damaris]

I'm down to. Yeah.

[Mal]

I'm down on the couch and your life is passing.

[Damaris]

You By.

[Rory]

Yeah, look at you.

[Damaris]

Look at you.

[Rory]

What you doing?

[Damaris]

This is crazy, though.

[Rory]

Is it?

[Damaris]

Like, this amount of cap is crazy.

[Rory]

Like, cap and gown.

[Damaris]

Yeah, this is. This is like, I. Like, how much further is this going to go? Like, because I don't think she's still. She's doubling down.

[Rory]

Still doubling down. She got the dean of students to create a college.

[Damaris]

Yeah, this is. But why, though? Like, why is it I don't even understand her purpose or reasoning for doing all of this?

[Rory]

You know why? Mark is a great interviewer. Instead of cutting that gentleman off and saying, you are clearly lying. Lying. He let him talk and then gave him confirmation. Like, I just want to make sure you said what you said. Okay, Keep going.

[Damaris]

Yeah,

[Rory]

this is right on brand, though.

[Damaris]

Maris, how do you feel about this? Like, do you feel like she's clearly lying?

[Mal]

I feel like. I feel. What bothers me is I feel like I. It bothers me that so many people care that she's lying. Like, so many people care about. They're making her bigger by this being a thing. Does that make sense?

[Damaris]

Okay, but I think because people are like.

[Rory]

Like.

[Damaris]

Like, cut the people at. At. Cut the level now. Like, cut the. Like, give it up. We know you lying. I don't think people care, but they're like, yo, bro, like, stop. This is like, cut. Cut it out. You're lying. Yeah, I think that's the level that people are going to.

[Mal]

Yeah.

[Rory]

I mean, I think it's hilarious. And I want them to not cut the shit and, like, really double down. Like, I want to see her valedictorian speech. I want to see it all. But, Damaris, you took the time and money to get higher education. Is it not sort of offensive? Like, I don't particularly care because I don't have a college degree. But you took years to do that and money for someone to make a mockery of it. I can see why some people be like, all right, like, what are we

[Mal]

doing for the people who have PhDs? I can understand them being irritated, but, like, her. The people who, like, listen to her and, like, get advice from her is just, like, kind of. I don't expect them to be very smart people. So it's just kind of like it's a dumb person, fraud, and people that are equally not that bright. You know what I'm saying? So it's just like, I.

[Rory]

It's the life cycle.

[Mal]

Yeah. It's just she's. Why are you getting, like, why are you taking a fake therapist seriously on the Internet for life advice? Anyway, so much that you're so mad that she's lying about her degree.

[Damaris]

Cause people are paying her.

[Mal]

Well, that part is crazy. I thought it was just like, her, like, making money off of, like, clips like, socials like that.

[Damaris]

No, I think people are paying her. Her for therapy.

[Mal]

No, no one's paying her for therapy.

[Rory]

You think life coach.

[Mal]

I think life.

[Dom]

Yeah.

[Rory]

She has some paywall.

[Mal]

Yeah, Life coach advice, not therapy.

[Damaris]

Scammer, Fire scammer.

[Mal]

That's good. That's good.

[Rory]

You made that up.

[Damaris]

Scammer for a scammer.

[Rory]

I'm not too fond of scammers, and I don't co sign. And I think it's terrible when people take advantage of maybe the less intelligent. But also, if it's an attempt adult, that's your fault, bro.

[Mal]

That's what I'm saying. That's. That's kind of where I'm at with it. Like, if you.

[Rory]

She's getting. I don't respect it. I don't respect the scamming. But I mean, get it how you live. Like, if people are dumb enough to do it, I'm be mad you scammed an adult.

[Mal]

Like, I feel like at this point, you're trolling. If you went and got the cap and gown from Amazon, like, you're trolling. You knew people would find that. Like, like,

[Damaris]

that's great.

[Mal]

You knew people would find that.

[Damaris]

Has she had a release, a setting thing, host seen? Okay, yeah.

[Rory]

Her entire statement was just moving the tassel to the other side.

[Mal]

And I also think that.

[Damaris]

Oh, that was the video she posted

[Mal]

after all of that, not standing up for her. I also think that she ordered that just to make.

[Rory]

Oh, I think so too.

[Mal]

Like, content. I don't think her point was, this is my cap and gown 100%. I think it's like this. This was for content. And people were like, oh, this is fake. And I'm like, I don't think she wanted y' all to think that it was real. Like, it's just.

[Rory]

There's some smart scammers out there. No, she's leaning into this for sure.

[Mal]

Yeah. Like, but.

[Rory]

But is that like a Halloween costume? Like, can you order? Like, when you got yours, it came from the college, right?

[Mal]

Oh, I didn't. I didn't walk.

[Rory]

Okay.

[Mal]

I didn't feel like walking. I didn't go to my graduation because

[Rory]

high school, they get.

[Mal]

I.

[Rory]

If I remember correctly, just gave it.

[Mal]

They gift it to you.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

Give it to you. Or you might. You might pay for it.

[Rory]

I'm sure college, though. It comes to them, but you have to pay for it.

[Mal]

You have to pay a lot of

[Rory]

money for it, which is crazy. So all of those that should come with the degree.

[Damaris]

All of those degrees on her wall and certifications, all of those are fake. I'm just trying to.

[Mal]

Again, I just think she has every. No, I don't think all of those are fake. But she doesn't have her doctorate.

[Damaris]

Okay, okay.

[Mal]

That's the point. People were like, you have.

[Damaris]

All of.

[Mal]

Everything else is framed except for your doctor doctorate. It's not framed.

[Damaris]

Oh, okay. Got you. I really didn't know the extent of what was happening. I just know that people are probably at the point where they like, caught her in so many lies that they're just like, yo, just stop.

[Rory]

I think some of us have like

[Damaris]

typos and like, oh, on her degrees.

[Rory]

Yeah, yeah. Find out Peach, Photoshop, those four. Peach. You should make some degrees for us. This wall.

[Mal]

If anybody is on the Internet trying to sell you something, it's. It's all a scam, bro. I'm like. I'm not gonna lie to you. Like, it's. It's all a scam, bro.

[Rory]

Well, I mean, one could say college with certain majors. Is that as well. They're selling you a degree? Yeah, for sure. Not all, but yes, Some. Some for sure. But no, we'll get more. Can. You know.

[Mal]

Oh, yeah.

[Rory]

That looked like it came like Tremont University.

[Damaris]

Creston University.

[Mal]

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

[Damaris]

I understand university.

[Mal]

Yeah, I understand people with doctors.

[Rory]

Your doctorate. The.

[Damaris]

I got my doctor.

[Rory]

The school of hard knocks.

[Damaris]

I got my doctorate from Fordham University. For sure.

[Rory]

Just a different. For not the one my uncle got.

[Damaris]

No, my uncle Paul has.

[Rory]

That's the same one.

[Damaris]

Yeah, he was at. No, he was on campus. I was on the concourse. It's just a difference. It's just a difference. There's a few blocks.

[Rory]

You and my uncle Paul are the exact.

[Damaris]

Yeah, he was just a little different. He was on campus, I was on the concourse. That's all. It's a little different. That's all it is.

[Rory]

Before we get out of here, do we have voicemails?

[Damaris]

You've got mail.

[Dom]

Hey, guys, this is Dom from Houston. I just have a quick scenario for you guys. So I recently told my ex that I will never speak to him again because Sound like somebody else disrespecting me and not kinda. He did. So he was out this previous weekend for the World Cup. Of course, as everybody was. He was having a ball. He randomly texted Me and was like, oh, my God, the club is so lit. And I was like, yeah, you know, hope you're having a good time. And I jokingly was like, you know, don't be texting me while you out with bitches or whatever, because, you know, I feel like that's understood. It was a little kiki. He then proceeds to send me a video of the big booty bitch that he is currently with.

[Rory]

Swag.

[Dom]

I watch the video and then all of a sudden you see the message, this has been deleted. And I straight up was like, hey, nigga, just know that you'll never hear from me ever again. He proceeds to laugh at my message and three days later he texts me is like, hi, Dom, hope you're well. I just want to let you know I deleted that video because I knew you would take it the wrong way. Am I in the wrong for never speaking to him again? Let me know.

[Damaris]

No, I don't think she's in the wrong for that.

[Rory]

I feel like they have a interesting relationship and she's leaving that part out. Like, why would he feel comfortable even saying, yo, the club is like, lit. I'm here with, oh, there's a followup.

[Dom]

Okay, So I feel like I need to add an additional piece of information that I forgot about again. After I informed him that he would never be hearing from me again, he replied to that message with laughing emojis. And then he also replied, quote, those are just random people in the club. End quote. Mind you, this big booty was the only person in the video frame. There was nobody else around. Nothing. I didn't see anybody else.

[Rory]

He wasn't even at the club.

[Dom]

So again, I asked, am I being too harsh on this man, telling him that he'll never hear from me again? Because cuz personally, I don't feel like I'm being harsh enough.

[Damaris]

She don't feel like she being harsh enough.

[Mal]

He gonna hear from her ass again.

[Rory]

I mean, yeah, I didn't want to get on my, you know, Cheyenne Bryant graduate degree side, but he's doing that cuz he's gotten away with like that before and she's always came back. And he knows that he could do. He could do whatever.

[Damaris]

He running amok. People know when they could play with you and they could just, you know, you gotta as sooner or later, you gotta really stand on what you're saying and be like, yo, you'll never hear from me again and the person will never hear from you again. But if you said that a few times and keep going back Then when

[Mal]

you tell a he never gonna hear from you again, he already know he gonna hear from you.

[Rory]

That's a fact.

[Mal]

Everybody know when it. When only time she gone is when she just disappeared.

[Rory]

I was about to say, the only time you know you're never gonna hear from her is when you never hear from her.

[Mal]

Like, she just.

[Damaris]

That's my jam. I love that.

[Dom]

What?

[Damaris]

Just like this.

[Mal]

Oh, I know. I know how you get.

[Damaris]

Oh, that's my jam. Ghost my St. Patrick.

[Rory]

She. She never sends you videos from the club when you ghost her.

[Damaris]

Man, listen.

[Rory]

But also, they're clearly not broken up. If, like, if you have an ex and you send that type of stuff, like, well, maybe I'm lost in that whole.

[Mal]

They might have a different type of dynamic. What would piss me off more about it is, why are you sending a video feel of a. Unless you're talking to a bisexual woman who, like, you have the relationship where it's like, ah, damn her ass fat. Like, you know, I want to see the fat ass.

[Rory]

Yeah.

[Mal]

If she seems like she's not like that. You're sitting that. It's like you. You were doing it to, like, it

[Damaris]

sounded like he sent it to the

[Mal]

wrong person to piss me up.

[Rory]

Nah, but he was texting her about the club and it was. He was trying to piss her off.

[Mal]

Yeah, it was like, you were trying to either piss me off or you're just not used to shit.

[Damaris]

He was texting her in the beginning and moving fast. He went to the wrong chat and sent the wrong video.

[Mal]

That's what I thought too. That's why it got deleted immediately.

[Damaris]

Yeah, he said. He said he didn't mean to send that to her.

[Mal]

Or he was drunk, doing stupid and sent it and then unsent it immediately, which I've done before.

[Damaris]

I ain't never been that drunk.

[Mal]

I've done it.

[Damaris]

Never been that drunk.

[Mal]

Like, it wasn't. Like, I sent it on accident, but I sent it and then it didn't. After I thought about it, like, my brain caught up to my fingers and

[Damaris]

was like, why did you say that was wrong?

[Mal]

And unsend. It just some. Just sent, like, where I was at. Like, like before. Like, I've been out at a party and, like, sent like, a video I just recorded, like, for my IG or whatever, and went to send it to a dude and it's like, God damn it, it's a. And some Pradas in the corner. Like, let me hurry up and unset that.

[Damaris]

Like, I've done that a With Some pras in the corner. If that's what. If that's what get you back.

[Rory]

That's her version of a fat ass.

[Damaris]

The Pradas like, yo, who. Whose Pradas is those?

[Mal]

With Pradas.

[Rory]

I have on a deal and a

[Mal]

Goyard back in the corner. Let me hurry up in this, man.

[Damaris]

Yo, if you want to club with a. With some Pradas on, he got a goyard bag. I'm at home not tripping products.

[Rory]

And Goyard is a nasty. I'm like, that's a really nasty.

[Damaris]

Shoot with the girls. How you say girls? That's one of the girls. Not worried about. No. With no Pradas in a goyard bag

[Rory]

at all, I would not find that threatening at all.

[Damaris]

At all. Definitely not worried about that.

[Mal]

All right.

[Damaris]

Pradas in a goyard bag. I'll be like, I'm. I'm dating a combo. That's the type of. She like, get away from me, yo. Like, with pradas and goyard bags. Oh, my God.

[Mal]

No, that's not my type. But there is a connotation that comes with those type of men. And that connotation is.

[Damaris]

It's scammers.

[Mal]

They gonna spend a whole lot of money.

[Damaris]

They gonna spend it like it's coming out the faucet. And then once they get locked up, they snitching on everybody. You going to. You going down, too. You spent some of that money, too. Why? It went to your account.

[Dom]

It's true. Yeah.

[Damaris]

You going down.

[Rory]

You in the RICO.

[Dom]

Mm.

[Rory]

100%.

[Damaris]

You part of scammer for our scammer

[Dom]

girl.

[Mal]

Don't talk to him no more, because obviously what he did, like, bothered you, but it also seems like you still like him, so.

[Damaris]

No, she just said. I feel like I ain't being harsh enough. She just said that she still.

[Rory]

Because she want to go to his crib.

[Mal]

She wants to punish him because he was having fun. She likes him.

[Damaris]

She wants to punish him because.

[Rory]

Because he's having fun, which is typical women.

[Mal]

She likes him.

[Rory]

That's women.

[Mal]

She felt disrespected because she likes. If she didn't like him, she wouldn't care if she didn't really still care about him. Like, like, whatever. She wouldn't care.

[Damaris]

Yeah.

[Rory]

But probably find that corny. Like, why are you sending me? Like.

[Damaris]

Yeah, but we've all been in that situation where we like somebody and they do something that you normally wouldn't like. Of course.

[Mal]

Yeah. This ain't judgment.

[Damaris]

This is. Nobody's judging anyone, but, like, to Rory's point, like, once you not even. Like, once. There's no communication and you not even mad anymore. You just hit that wall where you like, all right, I'm playing myself. I'm allowing myself to be disrespected way too many times. This person is playing with me way too many times. Like, I'm just.

[Rory]

That's what Mary said. She still likes him. That's why. Because if not, she would look at that and be like, why are you sending me a video of Chewing Club? Like, you're corny.

[Damaris]

But her. So her saying, don't ever reach out to me again is like, her saying her way of. Like, she still wants to.

[Rory]

That's still keeping a lot of communication when you say that.

[Mal]

Okay, no, she. I feel like she probably feels like she means it in the moment, but, like, just.

[Rory]

She said, don't ever speak to me. And then two days later, he said, hey, Dom. And she then said, don't speak to me. After saying, don't speak to me. He spoke to her and she replied, they're probably together listening to this right now.

[Damaris]

That would be funny. But. So he sent that video. She said what she said, and he didn't speak to her for three days. He didn't reach out.

[Rory]

I think she said two, three days. Whatever.

[Damaris]

She said two days. Nah, he playing with her. Yeah, he is. He having his way. Way.

[Rory]

Because he has before. I'm not. Just no disrespect to Dom because we've all been on either side of that before, but, yes, he's doing that because he knows he can get away with it.

[Damaris]

Yeah, he playing with you, Dom. I'm a God. I don't know you, Dom, but he playing with you. He playing. As a man, I'm letting you know he playing with you. Let that man go. Send him on the green of pastures. Send him on the green of pastures. That's all. Send him out. Send. Take him out behind the shed and put one in his head. That's all.

[Rory]

Good to see. Nobody around that fat ass. He was not at the club.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah, that was the house. That was the living room.

[Dom]

Room.

[Rory]

He just got lights.

[Damaris]

Yeah, it's just Viby. It's Vibing. It look like a lounge.

[Rory]

He's smoking his own hookah.

[Damaris]

Yeah, he got a couple. You know what I'm saying? Couple. Couple lights. You know what I mean? Couple hookahs and like, you know. Yeah, a couple little end tables and like that. That start looking loungy. That's at the crib. It's A vibe. Just me and shorty. Yeah. Oh, man.

[Rory]

I remember when my crib was a vibe.

[Mal]

You had a vibey crib.

[Damaris]

Now it's just dad fire. You gotta put the little things inside the socket. Nobody can't charge their phones.

[Mal]

That's so accurate.

[Damaris]

Stop. Of all the. All the outlets.

[Rory]

No, literally, all of them have that.

[Damaris]

Yeah, it's all good.

[Rory]

You know, I'm gonna make the master bedroom. Just move all the vibes into that. Yeah, on the door. Yeah, do that. I get the same IG ads that y' all get where it's like that 24 light that'll illuminate your crib.

[Damaris]

Yo, I saw one other night.

[Rory]

And like, they almost got me.

[Damaris]

They almost got me.

[Rory]

No, the one they. They really almost got me with, but they had that little scammer where if you order one, they, like, triple it or something.

[Damaris]

Yeah, yeah.

[Rory]

It was the waterproof one that you could put in your shower or your bath. It was like, have a soothing. I was like, nah, that's for. Yeah, that's what that's for. Yeah, that'll make you reconsider having shower sex. That waterproof one. That's the one.

[Damaris]

Yeah, that's fire. Survive.

[Rory]

[Damaris]

Yes, you do.

[Mal]

Now, I'm trying to take a. I can't find the toilet paper.

[Rory]

It's dark as air in the aquarium bathroom.

[Damaris]

Yeah. Why are you taking in this bathroom? This ain't the. Go to the one in the back of the hallway when nobody go down there. You can't smell that. Yeah, that's the shitter bathroom.

Plum black.

[Rory]

I actually do like the color plum. Plum is pretty good on cars if it's not, like, obnoxious.

[Mal]

I get plum on my toes in the winter time and then white in the summer.

[Damaris]

Plum on your toes in the winter. It got to be the right plum, though.

[Mal]

It's like, it's not.

[Damaris]

You get the wrong plum, your feet, your feet start looking dirty. You got black toenails and like, nah,

[Mal]

it's close enough to black, but without being black.

[Damaris]

Yeah, you got to get the right plum. Like, like brown skinned girls got to. Got to get the right plum on their nails. They got to be the right plum. If not, it's looking like Mallow.

[Mal]

He pick out good nail colors. I'mma hit mar. Oh, I do get my feet in there.

All right, cool.

[Rory]

Yeah, I set you up for those sneakers from you.

Nah, it's cool. He paid for my. My spa day, so.

[Rory]

I'm. I'm in need of a new comforter. Do you guys have any suggestions?

[Damaris]

Oh, my God. Speaking of Instagram, the fucking ad that kept popping up for the brand. What is it? I don't even want to get on that, but it was this brand that kept popping up. Finally ordered it. Okay, amazing.

[Rory]

[Rory]

No, not the brand. But, like, what. What product is it?

[Damaris]

I bought a. Bought sheets.

[Rory]

Okay. Okay.

[Damaris]

I bought pillows, and then I bought a comforter.

[Rory]

Oh, tell me off.

[Damaris]

Oh, my God.

[Rory]

It's great.

[Damaris]

Oh, my God. The sleep last night. Rory.

[Rory]

Okay.

Oh, God.

[Mal]

[Damaris]

It's the. It's the down comforter.

[Rory]

Okay.

[Mal]

[Damaris]

I don't do the duvets.

[Rory]

No. I'm getting. I'm getting too old. My knees. I can't do a duvet.

[Damaris]

Yeah. I'm not. I'm not doing a duvet.

[Rory]

I want to retire, and I'm in need of a new.
