Wow. Wow. Happy, happy, happy. Thirsty Thursdays. Came in here the very last second. Almost forgot my water. Y'all know on Thirsty Thursdays, we always remind each and everybody to drink their water like my parents used to do and my grandparents used to do when I was little. So I take a nice swig to start this little thirsty Thursday off. Hey, Yari. I think it's Yari. You know, if I mess up your names, all y'all got to do is DM me and I will correct it. I believe in pronouncing names right, but if I don't know it, I kind of got to wing it on the fly. Yari said, good morning, Flo and all the beautiful people. I finally get to watch you live. Excited as food. Always listen to you on Apple. I'm ready to hear who's getting cooked today and who's copying. I got you. Thanks for joining the breakfast crew. Good morning to all the breakfast crew in the building. Good morning, afternoon, evening, late night creep. Whenever you listening to this on Apple and Spotify and all the other podcasts and sites, you know I love y'all. The community, my Facebook community. You know I love y'all. Instagram, TikTok, always got a special place in my heart. I'm feeling good today. Got some. Got some stuff to catch up on with Diddy. We got some stories. I got some explanations on what's going on. Starting to get to the point where we. We kind of understanding what's going on now. Let me adjust my camera a little bit. I'm starting to understand what's going on. We got to talk about that. So we got another actor that's coming out with a Diddy story we gonna have to talk about. If you watching me, you see Kid Cudi behind me and Diddy, I'mma talk about, go more into detail what. What went on with them and how this applies to the case. Anything else I had time for, I would, you know, you know how we do. I'mma squeeze it in there. No Diddy. And you know we going to cook today. I got my. I got my apron on, my, My, My. My stove mitten. We about to cook. Somebody crock pot them. Whatever we gotta do. Thank y'all for joining me. I got announcements to make. It's a lot going on. Don't let me forget none of that. But I'm feeling good, y'all. And one thing about this, this job is if you want to be good at it, you can't give a shit about nobody feelings. Because if you watch, if you, if you worried about everybody feelings, you won't never talk about nothing, you will never say nothing that means anything because you'd be handling everybody with kid gloves. So this is, this is a job that you gotta, you gotta be built for this. I remember not, not too long ago. What was it about? Oh, his last birthday. It was my last birthday. So was it about a year from today? A year from today is when I really, really, I mean I was already, you know, telling my truth and all that. But I think a year ago today is as far as in the content world where I took a big step and I started telling my story about when I was with Floyd Mayweather Jr. Y'all know I was a rapper running around with Floyd and 50 Cent at in their primes. So you can imagine why I am the way I am. Meaning, you know I've seen a lot at an early on in my life and 50 employed is two people. If you had a chance to be around them in their prime and running around, you got some stories. But last year I started so that was over, over 15, 16 years ago and or longer it might be 18, 20, I don't know. You know time when you get old, everything is just 20 and 30 years. You know when you was a kid and people used to say I remember you old man. Be like, you'd be like will you get them how long you had them shoes? I had these shoes for 20 years. So you know when you get old every the time, just a long time ago, right. Stuff happened in Vegas and you know I went through a lot, you know I went through a lot with Floyd. I, I ain't never gonna bash nobody. I had good times, I had bad times. If you know the story I, I put it for the subscribers only. My mom was in a horrific fire. Was caught on fire out in Vegas. She had just moved out there to come support me on my music dreams and she wasn't even there a week and was in a full bledge fire. Broker lay arms. All kind of stuff happened. I don't want to go through that right now. If you want to check it out, it's on my subscriber only. I'm saying all that to say when I started I didn't tell any of my Vegas stories for a long time. I really didn't tell them until last year cuz my fans that I had built up and you Know, I had a, My following was getting so big and people wanted to know my story. And I said, well, I'm talking about everybody else story. I got to tell my people about my story. And so I started talking about my story. I said how I survived. The name of the series is How I survived Floyd Mayweather and Las Vegas. Meaning being young and being, going out to Vegas and being with Floyd Mayweather. It was a, it was an experience. So as I start going chapter one, chapter two, Floyd team reached out to me, his right hand man, and tried to, you know, was like, well, Floyd, he want to know what you talking about or, you know, he got, you know, he worried about what you're saying and this and that. Long story short, he reached out to me thinking that I was on some campaign to try to sue him or because this is like around the Cassie and you know, the situation with Cassie and just a lot of celebrities was getting sued. So Floyd thought I was building up some type of case or building something to so I could sue him and get millions for that. Happened to me back then, which wasn't even the case. I ain't built like that. I tell my story, I don't want, I don't need nothing from no man none. I get it, I get it from the mud myself. Anyway, he reached out to me, Mac, and I said, first of all, I could tell my story. And second of all, no, I'm not building up to try to sue or do no Cassie. I'm just telling my story, which I'm allowed to tell my story. If you're in my story, then you, then you're getting told, you know, I'm telling my story. Bottom line, you know, I, I, you know, I respect Floyd, I respect everybody. But we all, hey, Floyd say would say stuff where I was in his story. I mean, this is how it go. And we had a little back and forth, but at the end of the day, you know, I'm stand up guy. They stand up guys. And then once he found out that it wasn't no malicious intent behind me telling my story or I wasn't gonna come out saying nothing crazy or whatever, you know, been cool ever since then. We had a couple, couple times he had, he reached out. But I'm telling y'all, I say all that to say that's the biggest difference between me and a lot of these other people doing what I do. I'm really in these trenches. I really, these people that I'm talking about really will call me or get in contact with me and Want to question me, because they really know me. I really know them. So I'm letting y'all know, like, it's a different level when I'm speaking. I'm not speaking from behind a computer. And don't none of these people know me or. I don't know them. My. They know my mama. I know them. They. I know they mama. I know they sister, you know, so it's a whole different dynamic. So when you listen to my podcast, it's sort of like when you're watching the NBA or you're watching the NFL and you got like a Shannon Sharp, where you got players who used to play talking about the game, and they could give you a little more insight because they was there. So I was really in the game. So I'm just letting y'all know your boy be going through some shit when I'm up here using this, you know, talking on his mic. But it's all good, because you know what? Even Floyd or anybody, they all respect me because I'm not up in there. I'm not up here being malicious. I'm up here covering stories, covering facts, and leaving it at that. I don't have no agenda. I'm not out to get nobody. I'm here to do my thing. So let's get started to give y'all a little, little, little, little. A little intro to what I'm really doing. So, like, when I asked y'all to subscribe, that's why I'm saying subscribe. I'm up here. I'm up here standing 10 toes, and these people really hitting me up and asking me about it, and I gotta stand up and. And tell them what the real is. So we gonna continue, and let's get into this Diddy mess. So we all know Diddy is cooked. He's in the. In prison right now, waiting on his court date. We all waiting. We almost getting there. Seemed like this court date was never gonna come. And so now I'm getting a chance to really dig into the indictment, kind of reflect on old stories, bring them up so we can discuss them. And the more I was reading it, I said, why ain't more people really digging in on this one particular story? And this one particular allegation, which is in. It was in Cassie's lawsuit. We all know Cassie sued Diddy, and we know the outcome of that for 30 million, for all type of crazy stuff that went on. Well, it's a. It's a story and an allegation and an indictment which is in the federal Indictment that I think needs to be. They need more attention on it. And what am I talking about? I'm talking about this gentleman behind me. If you watching me, Kid Cudi and Diddy. Now, before I get into the actual story and article about it, let me give you a little context. During Diddy and Cassie had a rough patch at. In. During that rough patch, Cassie started talking to and dealing with Kid Cudi. Kid Diddy ended up allegedly blowing up Kid Cudi's car over Cassie. And then there was kidnapping and gunpoint and all type of stuff in this story. But let's break this down, because I don't think people paying enough attention to this one, because this ain't no rumor. This was known. And also, let me give y'all some more context. Remember, I told y'all about Shaker High as a kind of famous school or just known, and we pumped out a lot of talent out of Shaker High School. Shout out Shaker High School to Red Raiders, where I went. One of those people that. That you might know that we also went to Shaker was Kid Cudi. Kid Cudi was up there. And so this is a. He blew this man's car. So when people ask me and see, I don't get into too much, I tell y'all what we talk about, but I don't sit up here and tell you every single thing. I don't have time. But when it comes up, I'll let you know what's going on. Kid Cudi is. Is. Is. Is my. Is went to. Went to the same high school as me. Shaker Heights High School. Good dude. Kid Cudi is a diver just like me. Diverse. Hangs with all kind of different people. It don't matter your race, it don't matter your religion, it don't matter nothing. Kid Cudi will hang with you. Kid Cudi always was cool. He was quiet in school, but just a cool dude, right? And he from where I'm from. So Diddy blows his car up. You think I don't. You. You don't think I got some animosity towards Diddy? So when I tell people when they like, man, why you bringing the black man? Well, what about him bringing down Kid Cudi and setting his car on fire and exploding it? And that's my dog. You know, if you went to Shaker or you from Cleveland, you know, I'm a rock with you. So I tell people I got all type of incentives outside of just covering it. On this particular case, Diddy has done foul stuff to people who I know are cool. Kid Cudi don't bother nobody. And Diddy, what did I tell y'all? I hate bullies. He gonna blow his car. He gonna. He gonna blow his car up. He wouldn't blow up 50 cent car, though. See, that's why I'm saying the true definition of a bully, Kid Cudi don't bother anybody. I know this for fact. Cool dude. You love Kid Cudi. He one of us and didn't do nothing wrong. Cassie wanted to talk to whoever she. She had a right to talk to whoever she wanted to talk to. But you a bully, Diddy. So you blew his car up. And now it was at a time where Diddy thought he was untouchable. But now the feds is digging in and it's so much went on in this incident that Diddy is cooked for real. Spoiler alert. Even Kid Cudi said it happened. He ain't got no reason to lie. Kid Cudi is straight. He's set for life. His name is etched. And he, like me, he in his own lane. He don't give a damn about being the biggest star or whatever. Like he care about his life and what he doing. That's why I respect and I like Kid Cudi. And. And for Diddy to be bullying him and doing. Doing what he did to him, especially being somebody from my own area, it's just one more reason why I don't fuck with Diddy. And anybody mad about it can kick rocks with flip flops. So let's continue. I got this from Forbes. I told you, I always try to spread it around on the publications. Sean Diddy Combs may have firebombed Kid Cudi's car according to charges. Now, if you know about the indictment, it says in there, it doesn't say Kid Cudi name, but everybody knows it lines totally up to what happened with Kid Cudi. And in the indictment, it says Diddy is going being charged with arson, kidnapping, etc. This is where a lot of that comes from. So let's dig into this. And another thing. You know how the witnesses, they want to testify anonymous. A lot of witnesses. And Diddy is fighting for those witnesses not to be testified. I mean, not to be anonymous. If you look, if you. Kid Cudi could possibly be one of those people. I'm starting to think about it. It ain't the regular people that's probably really, really paranoid about showing who they are. The more I think about it, it's these celebrities probably. And think about it. Diddy wants them to have to reveal themselves. He don't want Kid Cudi, for example, to be able to testify under an anonymous testimony and bring all type of evidence and all type of condemning to Diddy. He wants to be exposed. He wants everybody to know who they are. And so you blow my car up, I'm testifying. So I'm pretty sure Kid Cudi is on that list. But let's dig into this because the devil is in the details and I didn't realize so much more went on at this time than the car bombing. So let's get into this. You're going to be surprised. Unless you know about some of this stuff already, you're going to be surprised. But check this out. So prosecutors alleged the in bat the embattled music mogul Sean Diddy Combs set fire to a car owned by a unnamed victim between December 2011 and January 2012. Now this mirrors the allegation that Cassie said in her lawsuit where she said Kid Cudi's car was blown up by Diddy. So let's get into this. Let's go, let's, let's, let's, let's go over the facts, key facts in this situation. Prosecutors accused Combs in a memo filed with the New York judge of kidnapping an unarmed individual with a co conspirator to break into the residence of another unnamed individual referred to as Individual one. That's Kid Cudi. Now prosecutors allege Combs co conspirators set fire to Kid Cudi's vehicle about two weeks later in which the co conspirators allegedly cut open the top of the convertible and dropped a Molotov cocktail inside. Prosecutors say police and fire department officials concluded the fire was intentionally set. And multiple witnesses allegedly testified Combs had bragged about some setting fire to the car. And he sure was bragging back in these times. I remember 2011, 2012, I thought it was the craziest thing ever. And I couldn't believe Diddy was able to get away with it at that time. I didn't know it would come back to bite him 1512 years later, whatever the math is. Another thing. In Cassie's November lawsuit, Ventura says she had brief. She had a brief relationship with rapper Kid Cudi, whose real name is Scott Muscutti, during a rough patch in her relationship with Combs in 2011, allegedly causing Combs to become enraged. Let me tell you. And he came at Ventura with a corkscrew in his hand about Diddy. Tell me this guy got a bully tendencies like crazy, Ventura alleged. Combs said in February, several weeks after the incident, prosecutors detailed in their memo he was going to blow up Kid Cudi's car, stating his car exploded in his driveway right around that time. And you got some talking about ain't no evidence. Okay? Representatives for Kid Cudi confirmed. Listen up. Open up your ears on this one, y'all. Representatives for Kid Cuddies confirm Cassie's account of the incident with a simple quote. This is all true. A spokesperson for the rapper Kid Cudi commented. Now let's go back. Didn't Terrence Howard had a crazy Diddy story talking about Diddy tried to him for disguised as acting lessons. We got another actor that we gonna get to after Kid Cudi that has allegations, nasty allegations when it comes to the diddler. And so I'm starting to line up these people because I said, you know what? It's a lot of people that kept talking about people want money and they just doing it for clout. I said, let me, let's start focusing on some of these witnesses that don't need no clout, that don't need no money. Like a Terrence Howard, like a Kid Cudi. So now you tell me why they lying for all the people out there that's saying, you know, when it was these vic, when it was the victims were no names and people who were regular people who check the check, they would scream they want money and clout. But when Kid Cudi says it happened, or Columbus short, who we're gonna get to later, from stump to yard when they say it happened, it's just silence. It's crickets. Because you can't use that lazy ass excuse on these people. Which is why this episode, in these couple episodes, I wanted to focus on it because I want. I'm tired of that same old tired ass excuse of people want clout and money. Nah, people just want to be left the fuck alone and people want you to keep your hands to yourself. That's what people want. You the one want money. So talking about Diddy. So check it out. This is what else Cassie alleged. So this is what happened. Kick. Cassie says in her lawsuit Combs had discovered her brief relationship with Kid Cudi during a freak off in which prosecutors describe in their indictment as coerced. So during a coerced freak off, this is when Diddy found out about Kid Cudi. So it's a freak off going on baby oil everywhere, dirty liquor everywhere. And they find out about Kid Cudi. She said, in this particular freak off, did he use elaborate force, threats of force and coercion to cause all the victims engaged in this freak off to extend sex acts with male sex workers. Ventura alleged Combs had demanded she participate in this particular freak off after he returned from a trip and she acquiesced it. During the freak off, Ventura alleged Combs found her phone and discovered emails that had been shared between Cassie and Kid Cudi. I don't even have to tell you what went on next, but I will because this is the flow show. No filter. After discovering these emails, it prompted Diddy to lunge at Cassie with a corkscrew. Cassie escaped. Guess where she headed? To Kid Cudi's house. Combs staff contacted Cassie who then told her that Combs needed to talk to her immediately and she acquiesced. She returned homes home to Combs feeling like she could not escape his network of enforcers. She felt like, I gotta go back now. Then Cassie alleged Combs hit her several times and kicked her in the back as she attempted to run out the door after she returned home. So you got workers harassing Cassie while she was gone. With Kid Cudi living their best life. They tell her that. They tell her Puff needs to talk to her, AKA Diddy needs to talk to her. She gets back to the house and his he don't do his talking. He talks with his fists and his feet and his knees and any other trifling thing he can do. Kicked in the back. She attempted to run out the door, kicked her again. Then Cassie fled to her parents home in Connecticut where her mother took pictures of the bruises Combs had allegedly inflict on her. That is when Combs told Cassie why they attended Paris fashion week in February 2012 that he wanted to blow up Kid Cudi's car. Now stop one second. Had we not seen, did he do exactly what's described here? We saw him do it in 4k. We saw him do it on that infamous hotel footage that was leaked or whatever. We saw it, you saw it. Had we not seen that video, the same Mohawk Diddy Little would have been saying she just lying and she just making it up. It's just a money grab. But since we got that video, we know this true. But this is what I'm trying to tell these little jerks. You seen the proof, you've seen it in real time. And that's the same thing with a lot of these other allegations. The only difference is what no camera rolling. And Diddy said this whole lawsuit that Cassie was had set, had put forth was all a money grab. He didn't know the video was about to get leaked. He said nothing in her lawsuit was true. He never put hands on her, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then the videotape came out, and then he came with that old sad puppy, fake ass, crocodile tear apology. So, like, that is when makes me look at you hard. Like when you already caught in a bold face lie. I'ma start assuming all that. You lying about a lot of stuff. So let's go back to this Paris fashion week when he told Cassie he wanted to blow up Kid Cudi's car. And he also said he hoped that the rapper and his friends would be home to see the incident. So after the car allegedly exploded, Cassie said she was terrified as she began to fully comprehend what Mr. Combs was both willing and able to do to those he believed had slighted him. Did he? Did he? Did he? Now, another thing that went on in order for this to happen, there were, there were they kidnapped and held someone at gunpoint in order to even gain access into Kid Cudi's home to set this whole blowing up the car gate, this whole blowing up the car situation was all plotted out. It was planned out, it took weeks to carry out. But it all started the whole start to even getting to the point to putting the stuff and setting the car on fire. They had to hold someone at gunpoint and have them let them into the residence and set this whole, in just crazy episode to set this whole crazy episode up. They went through all that. And all of that is in the indictment. Now you tell me these feds, they got the co conspirators, which is why they not naming them. They don't flipped on Diddy. You got Kid Cudi saying it happened. You got Cassie saying it happened. How the hell you beat that? Because the only person in this whole scenario that got a motive to lies, Diddy, Kid Cudi. Free Cassie free. The co conspirators are free. So when people start when they say they didn't got no evidence, I wonder, are they able to read? Because it's all in the indictment. I ain't doing nothing special. I'm just reading. I'm just reading the indictment. That's all. Nothing spectacular, but it's so much evidence just in the, in the indictment alone. It's just sick. And then that brings us to another actor. Even though Kid Cudi is a rapper and an actor, mainly a rapper. But we're gonna get to this other actor that told a story that shows us he will. And I say he, I mean Mohawk Diddy will put something in your drink also this next Story will detail and confirm what Terrence Howard said about him using acting lessons and. And trying to put the moves. I don't know what. Diddy has a thing for actors. I'm starting to find out. I don't know what it is. He might have a fetish. I don't freaking know. But now as we get more and more evidence, you got to dig back and go back to previous evidence that we long forgot about. This is stories that I already told that went viral that kind of got lost in the sauce because so much happened since a year ago. So check this out. This guy, actor, Columbus Short, you know him from Stomp the Yard, he's going to talk about how did he tried to. Had. Had tried to groom him and how did he slip something in his drink? So let's check this out and let's break this down.
- [31:57]
Columbus Short
So this went on for about a year. Any parties he had, he would go. I didn't know that there was other parties. I wasn't at the party. Okay. I was at the, you know, the big part. And then Diddy called me one day after I did Cadillac Records. He came to the premiere of Cadillac Records in New York and he was like, man, you killed that. He said, I'm up for this movie artist show. It was a movie. Raising in the Sun.
- [32:21]
Flo
Yeah, yeah.
- [32:22]
Columbus Short
He's like, I need an acting coach, man. So I put him with my acting coach since I was kid.
- [32:28]
Flo
Yeah.
- [32:28]
Columbus Short
And he. He might. Big shout out. Josh Baton, wonderful, phenomenal acting coach. And he started working with him. You know, he. Then Diddy was on a series for a little bit and he was working, so he was always looking out. So I think it was just now looking back, like the groomage, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I was. I was. The BET Awards were happening in town. I didn't go because I wasn't nominated. So I'm like, I got. I'm not going. I'm not nominated. You know, I'm just sitting my black behind at the crib. So about two something 30 in the morning, 2:15. 2:30, phone ring, unknown number. I don't answer unknown numbers. But, you know, my wife looking at me like, yeah, yeah, like, who is that? Yeah, pick that up. I want to know about this.
- [33:16]
Flo
So Diddy, this actor, Diddy, been trying to put the moves on him a little bit. He says he got home. He was at home one night, laid up in the bed with his wife, not a care in the world. 2:30 in the morning, he gets an unknown call. He say he normally don't answer unknown calls. But when you get an unknown call at 2:30 in the morning, he and you laying there with your wife, your ass better answer or, or, or your ass might as well get the hell out the house. And so this is what happened if the unknown call happened to be the diddler. Put it on speaker, he said, he.
- [34:06]
Columbus Short
Put it on speaker and say, who's this? I'm like, sean. I'm like, oh, what's good?
- [34:13]
Flo
Talking low like that.
- [34:13]
Columbus Short
Talking low. So I was so I was like, hey, what's good? I said, what's crying? He said, ah, we didn't see you, we didn't see you tonight at the BET Awards. We didn't see you tonight. He said, he checking in. He said wait, what you, what you doing? I was like oh man, I'm at the crib. He said oh yeah, we over here at the, he said I'm over here at the, the Beverly Hills Hotel. I said oh, for real? So who over there? Just me. What?
- [34:40]
Flo
Come on man, it man, is you serious?
- [34:43]
Columbus Short
Said just me. So my wife, she, I'm over here on the suspect list.
- [34:51]
C
What the hell?
- [34:52]
Columbus Short
I'm like nah man, I'm in bed bro. I'm, I'm good. He's like, I, I, I just hung up. Did he ever give you sign? Did you ever give him any sign, any reason? No, no, nothing whatsoever. So, so I'm like man, and I, but now I got smoke in my house. So my wife looking at me, what's up? You know what I'm saying? I'm like, I don't know. This man just called me like. And I don't know, I don't know what going on. So anyway, so you know, people when I posted that on ig, people was like, I, you know, the comments was like, but did you go you did, you did.
- [35:32]
Flo
So that's part one of that clip. We gonna break this whole, you know, we, I'm hold your hand, we about to go on a little walk. But look, so what man calls another man three in the morning and tell him he at the hotel did. He said Diddy called him and said he at the hotel come through and do. And Columbus Short said oh okay, all right. Who there? Diddy says, just me, not the Cumberland. Short says, wife looking at him crazy. He looking at, he, he think he, he tell Diddy, you know, hell dog or I don't know if he said hell no, but he played it off. But the crazy part is now he was, he was trying to put the moves on him Just like Terence Howard ain't no dude. Any dude. No, no. Ain't no dude calling another guy. And no 3 in the morning, talking about, come through to the hotel. And it's just me. It just. I don't even got to go into details on that. I, I, Everybody just need to use common sense on that. But this is the crazy part. He then went to a party, one of Diddy's parties. And it was almost like since Diddy wasn't able to get him, then he figured out a way to get him. Check this out.
- [37:11]
Columbus Short
So this went on for about a year one time. And I did not. I escaped. Well, it's not. That sounds dramatic, but, yeah, but I was, you know, I thought, you know, I'm an arts kid, so let me give some content context. You know, growing up in art school, you know, in high school, it was the first time I saw, like, men like boys. Like, it was like we was in junior year, like, going, going together, like, holding hands in school and kissing and stuff up. It's like. But I, I didn't want to judge them. They were talented. You know what I mean? And so there was this understanding and what is it called? Called, you know, just not judgment about it.
- [37:50]
Flo
Yeah.
- [37:50]
Columbus Short
So I was always been, you know, non judgment about people's sexuality, but, you know, people that you've seen that you would not assume, you know, doing compromising things.
- [38:00]
Flo
Right?
- [38:01]
D
Yeah.
- [38:01]
Columbus Short
You know what I'm saying? Booed up, you know, I'm, you know, you my brother. I ain't gonna boo up with you, bro. You know what I'm saying? We ain't never gonna be sitting too close on the couch. If me and you just want to go catch a Marvel movie. We gotta have a seat in the middle.
- [38:21]
Flo
We're not sharing popcorn.

Columbus Short
We gonna have to have a seat. Okay, Give me some spice. Okay. So. So I'm seeing some things. And I was like, man. And, you know, so I used to drink a lot. Like, a lot. Like, I would drink. I could drink a bottle of tequila by myself. And I had got invited to this thing, but I hadn't drank all day. And so this is. Now it's night. It's like 11, 30, 12. There was only about 14, 15 people in there, but some people. And it was like, Columbus, what you drink at Columbus? Like, I only drink one thing, Tequila. And they were like, oh, get him, get him. Oh, we got the smoothest, smoothest, smooth tequila. So I was like, all right, let me get a shot. So I'm over here. Like, we Chopping it up. I take my shot. I'm left. Pretty smooth. So we chopping it up. Five minutes go by, seven minutes go by. Something wrong? Something wrong.

Flo
So he's at Diddy's party. It's about 12, 15 people there. A little pre. Little private party or whatever. Somebody asked him. One of Diddy's people asked him, what you drinking? He say, tequila. Now, mind you, he wasn't able to get Diddy before. I mean, Diddy wasn't able to get him before. Now he got him on his turf. And we all know about what happened when Diddy pass you a drink. We've heard lawsuit after lawsuit, even in the indictment. So now he takes a sip. Now, he a drinker. That's why he letting you know he a drinker. So for him, he say when he took a drink, and immediately. First drink, he started feeling crazy. He knew something wasn't right. I'm a. Shut up.

Columbus Short
Something was in your dreams. Something wrong. Because I'm getting dizzy. I'm like. I'm trying to. On one shot. On one shot. So I'm like. I'm trying to stay focused, you know, But I'm hearing. But it was. I'm like. I started getting a little sweaty. I was like, oh, something wrong. I gotta find. I was like. But I played it cool. House in Atlanta. So I'm like walking down the hallway, look like the starship Enterprise. I go to the bathroom and I put my finger down my throat. Cat back. Yeah. Cause you knew. And my. My. My. My manager was with me, so he kicked in the door. Boom. Short, you all right? I was like, bro. I don't know, bro. It's like, son. He's like, the driver's still outside. Let's go. So we go out and. And they all met us in, like, the vestibule. And they're like, hey, you good? Show it. Like, chill. Just relax. I'm like, no, I gotta. I just like, no, I'm fine. I'm fine. I gotta be upset early in the morning. Boom. Getting that. Yes. And me just get out of here. Damn right. So who was. Now who was at this part? That was the night that being an alcoholic saved my life and my booty ho.
- [41:13]
Flo
Cause you knew.
- [41:14]
Columbus Short
I get up.
- [41:15]
Flo
So checked it out. He was. He. He was spiked to drink. The only way he said he was able to survive and get out of there is he. He went in the bathroom, put his finger his throat and. And kept choking himself until it made him throw out. Throw up whatever was in that drink and throw that drink up, and he got the hell out of there. And he said, being an alcoholic that night, that night, being an alcoholic actually saved his booty hole. And these was his words, not mine. But I brought that up to say, especially after that Terrence Howard stuff came out. Columbus Short is another person. He ain't sued, he ain't suing. He ain't getting no clout. And news flash, it ain't no more clout. Diddy. The clout days is diff. Is. Is. Is. Is gone. People do not actually even want to be mentioned in the same breath as Diddy. So people admitting or telling stories is really just kind of like when I told my story for the first time last year about all the I went through. Sometimes you just want to get that out. Everybody ain't telling a story for money. I didn't tell my story for money. For when I told my story about Vegas with Floyd, I didn't tell it for no money. I could have said all kind of stuff and, and, and promoted the hell out of it if I was trying to make money off of it. People got to realize everybody don't kiss ass for a dollar or, or, or sell themselves short or sell themselves out for a dollar. And so you listen to that story. This is an actor in movies. We all know this ain't somebody we don't know that's chasing clout. Did he tried to. Did he called him at three in the morning? What are you calling him at three in the morning for? And if you had any reservations about that before, after Terrence Howard, another person who has no reason to lie comes out and tell his story, well, now all these stories start to start to sound like they make some sense. So the more I think about Diddy and his attorneys wanting these witnesses to be revealed, I've always been more in the mindset of thinking about the regular people like you and me who don't. Who maybe just may have been afraid of Diddy. And I was thinking it was more about them. But the more I start digging in and I started looking at what Kid Cudi said, Columbus Short, Terence Howard, and this. I'm sure it's way more people than that. But I started looking at what they saying. I said, you know what? I know what's going on. You know what's going on with this Lord, with the, with the, with the Diddy's lawyers and, and what they're trying to do. They don't want all of these celebrities because the celebrities are the ones mainly that don't want to Put their name in it. Don't want to muddy. Don't want to get mud, but get dirty by playing in the mud. And so it would be much easier for the celebrities that are involved that are going to come and tell their testimony. It will be a lot easier for them if they were anonymous, because then they wouldn't have to worry about backlash or just being involved in the story or even, you know, because people would be like, well, you was there. And they start blaming the people who are speaking out. And then if you go back to Diddy, see, Diddy don't want that. Diddy don't want these celebrities, say, like a Columbus Short or Kid Cudi to just be anonymous and be able to tell everything that went on all of this nasty. Here he is basically saying Diddy spiked his drink. He had to go in the bathroom and make himself throw up to get out of there. Did he need help? Did he need help? Story after story after story, Same pattern. Spike, drinks, intimidation, threats, murder. When they say in the superseding indictment that key witness, some key witnesses are dead, we don't know what they mean exactly by that, but the media, national media, mainstream media, old school media, whatever we want to call them, ain't talking about none of this stuff. I'm reading this. It's so much in the indictment, y'all, that is not being talked about. Like I said, for example, if it's key witnesses in this case that are dead, how the is we not talking about that and inquiring about that? Are they dead from old age? Are they dead mysteriously? Can we get some details? Because it could just be me, but ain't that. Ain't that important info? So, again, which is why we have to support our unbiased media platforms. This is a good reason all type of crazy shit is in this indictment. And if you turn on TMZ and cnn, they talking about the same old gossipy bullshit as if they don't even read the indictments. I don't know. Am I the only one that actually read the paperwork? Because as I'm reading, I'm like, why nobody talking about this? Why nobody talking about that? Why they ain't talking about this? Like it's crazy? Like, I thought it wasn't the real paperwork. I'm like, keep witnesses dead. Don't you think the public should kind of know that and not, like someone should talk about that? So I appreciate everybody who subscribes. Like I told y'all, the this platform wouldn't even exist without our subscribers. And no platform like it will exist without the subscribers. And I've been preaching that for months and months and months now, only because I figured it out. Y'all know we started this podcast October 30, 2024, but by January, February, I had figured it out. I said, you know what, it was like January, New Year's. I said, you only got two options. You either go be supported by your community, by your subscribers, or you're not going to be able to talk about this shit as a podcaster if you want to make a living. And so that day is when I started letting y'all know, because I didn't even ask for subscribers, because I, I, I'm the type of person, I'm not asking for no money until I got a plan and it's needed. I don't need nobody's, I'm not asking nobody for extras at all. So January 1st, I said, okay, we got to subscribe and people start subscribing and, and, and, and we on our way. We got a long way to go on the subscriptions, but we, y'all are doing an amazing job. So then fast forward to now. The other day I broke the news that you got huge podcasts, been around for 10 plus years, millions and millions of followers and listeners way bigger than me. They're just now finding out what I found out January 1st after only being in this game two months. And so if you know, Joe Budden podcast, Joe Buttons podcast, and Adam Adam no Jumper podcast, they spoke out on this. And it was, and I like it because it doesn't do anything but explain the same thing that I was trying, that I was explaining to you guys. And I'm glad most of y'all understood what I was getting at and stepped up right to the plate and started subscribing and understood this ain't no sales pitch. This ain't no, I'm trying to get squeeze nobody for money. That ain't even my style. But this is what's needed if we want to continue to cover this news and talk about this news candidly. So I'm looking for the, the clip right now that I want to play y'all. That explains kind of what, what I was, what I was talking about having trouble pulling up. But anyway, let me, let me thank, while I'm looking for it, let me thank today's subscriber of the day, who we appreciate and we owe it to this subscriber for stepping up and coming to the plate and supporting the movement. So subscriber of the day is phone Acting a little, little crazy today. Y'all don't mind me, but this is the favorite part of the show to me, because this is the whole reason. Anybody, anybody that hasn't subscribed, but you're listening and enjoying it, thank these people because without these people, we wouldn't be able to have as good time we have every morning and cover these important cases. So subscriber of the day today with a five dollar donation as a subscription. This person subscribed for five dollars when we only asked for three. So we really appreciate you, Jamie Ram. Ram Cassoon, AKA Just. Just J. So clap it up. Clap it up for Just J. Just J. We appreciate you at the Flow show, no filter. For understanding that we need you, we need all our subscribers so that we are able to continue on this path and continue giving you the news, keeping truth alive, whatever you can. This is, this is amazing. And like I said, I like when, like I told you, I don't like to be a salesman. I don't like used car salesman. I don't do none of that. I don't want to come up with a creative way to trick you and come up with a great commercial to trick you out of subscribing or just, you know, make you spend your money. I like to just give you the facts because it feels better when I give you the facts. And people subscribe, it feels better because they understand what I'm saying and they, they appreciate my content and they understand that this is what it's going to take for us to have a platform like this so that we can talk about what's really going on. And when I play you what other blogs or other podcasts are saying, it's only to co sign what I'm saying. And it's receipts. Y'all know I like receipts. So, as you know, Joe Budden is the godfather of the podcast game. He's been in the podcast. He was one of the first ones, one of the most successful ones. Well, he just recently dropped the same knowledge that I dropped. I want y'all to hear from these people. And the person who's covering it is also another person that they pulling in probably millions and millions of views, a huge YouTube channel. His name is Poetic Flaco. But they all are understanding what I've already understood and what we already are doing. But I want you to hear it from them. And check this out. If this don't tell you how important subscribers are to podcast, ain't nothing gonna tell you. Check this out.

Like, I'm no, like I really took this advice to heart, so I want y'all to hear this.

We started talking about the Snapchat and YouTube and Instagram checks. Yo, I check out when start talking like that too. We've built this thing in a way where the paranoia and trauma from leaving our fate in somebody hands won't allow us to leave it in somebody's hands. So clap to you if you're leaving it in somebody's hands and it's going great for you. But one day Facebook wake up and say, hey, our metavision, we're not doing it no more. That money you was making is out of you. So we're finished. One day, YouTube wake up and say, hey, you're not in our little creator fund program where we're sending your way. You're done. We're not even putting you in the algorithm. One day, Snapchat, tick tock. One day they all wake up and say, you can't plan that way.
- [55:21]
Flo
That's true.

It's tough to look the estate people in the face, the tax people in the face and say, hey, I don't know that I'll make that next year. I don't know that five years from now these companies will still hold me in such high regards. They leave fast.
- [55:45]

I really hope y'all held on to every word Joe just said, because this right here to me will probably be the difference between the content creators who you see still doing content in five to ten years, and the content creators who are not doing content in five to 10 years. When we put our lives on YouTube, on Instagram, on these platforms, man, and, and to think that they can just take it away like this is absurd. So what Joe is speaking towards is, is building a direct to consumer model, taking away the middleman like YouTube, et cetera, et cetera. Right now, Joe got a deal with Patreon. So where Joe was actually like creative director, so he's actually on Patreon. But in terms of being paid, right, Joe is saying, yo, half the consumers pay you directly, right? Instead of getting paid off of ad revenue, have them give you their five bucks a month. Instead of taking the money from, let's say the Snapchat show, have your own website and have them pay you directly for your shorts. And to me, that's a model that makes sense. And essentially what Joe is saying is use this YouTube, use the Snapchat, use the Instagram, use the algorithm essentially as ads. Use it as ads, but the ads should be for something that you own.

I'm gonna stop it. Right there. And that's the flow. Show no filter. And that's just a breakdown. Like I said, I like to give facts. Ain't no. Ain't no salesman here. Subscribe. Subscribe. Subscribe. Not just to me, I'm saying any podcast that's covering unbiased news that's bringing you information that they don't want us talking about, subscribe to them, man. They need it. We need ain't extra. You hearing it from people who got channels and. And podcasts 100 times bigger than me. But I figured it out early, and I figured it out quick because I'm smart and I always think ahead and I'm always thinking about, how can I do this forever? Because y'all know I told y'all I would never want to wake up in the morning and get on this mic and talk about fluff stuff, and I wouldn't even. It wouldn't be no motivation for me. So I was already thinking, how can I. How in January 1st, I said, how can I make it where I could do this forever? And. And I can keep talking about what I'm talking about without worrying about somebody telling me to shut up or telling me. I can't say that. Only way I could do that is, is if I build a good subscription subscriber base. And we started in January, and y'all have answered the call, and I greatly appreciate it. But like I always tell y'all, I like to bring receipts. I don't want y'all to just hear it from me. I was kind of happy that bigger blogs came out and, and, and, and are coming out and saying how important that is. So I say all that to say thank you to all the subscribers out there. Y'all really making this thing go and allowing me to continue to bring y'all the news and continue to cover and ramp up for this diddy trial. I am going to have the best diddy coverage for the trial. It ain't even going to be close, y'all. I think y'all kind of already know that, but let me just put that in the atmosphere for anybody else out there that think they can touch me because they. They can't. Like I said, 100,000 downloads put me in the top 5% of all podcasts. I did that in four months without one fucking guess. I don't even know if it's any other podcast that could say that, especially new ones. So, again, thank you. And then before we get out of here, I'm gonna add this segment. This is called what Flow Forgot. Because y'all know sometimes I forget. But one thing about I forget. I might forget right now, but I don't forget forever. And it's going to come back to me. And so what, what I forgot about yesterday is this particular subscriber. I jacked her name all up. Like I told y'all, if I say your name wrong, reach out to me through inbox, through fan mail, whatever, and I will correct it because I believe in people. Name my name, everybody names, means, means a lot to them. And I'm not one of those people. Just, just say your name any kind of way and if you correct me, so what no, I'ma come right back on this and I'm gonna say this name correct. So the, the, the, the subscriber that I jacked her name up, that, that, that came in my thing, I'm gonna try to say it right this time because she spelled it, she gave me the little symbol, the little spell out that tell you how to say it. So here, I'm gonna try it again. So this subscriber is Vanessa. I was saying all kind of stuff. So Vanessa, Vanessa, thank you for subscribing and if I said it right, let me know. I'm pretty sure the way you spelled it out for me, that's how you say it. So I apologize to that. And also another thing I want to announce if you're having problem accessing the Apple podcast for the subscription only content, all you have to do is email buzzsproutupport.com they will get back to you and fix it. They fixed it for and showed people how to do it on many other occasions. They are a great company. That's one thing I do like about them. They respond. They're humans, ain't bots, so don't have. If you have any issue with the subscriptions, just email. And the email is also in my, in the notes. So email buzzsproutupport.com and another thing, I'm also going to start trying to read more of my fan mail live since I can't reply to y'all in the fan mail. I won. At the end of every show, I'm gonna try to address some stuff or just, you know, some, some sometimes people just making statements in the fan mail. I'll just read it. But check this out. This is what I love about this community we building because it's, it's people from everywhere and I've been telling y'all that. But none like receipts, right? So check this out. Another subscriber name Was the brat. I said, I don't know what the brat it is, but if you subscribing here, you are the real Debrett. Because whoever you are, you real for subscribing. I said that yesterday. So the brat left a. A voice. I mean, a fan mail. It was kind of cool. And it just shows what type of community we're building and how wonderful it is, and everybody's enjoying it. I enjoy it. I love y'all. I don't mind telling y'all everything that's going on, because I trust y'all. Y'all let me come up here and say everything. Y'all know I'm just giving y'all my raw emotions, my raw thoughts. Sometimes you're gonna disagree with me. Sometimes I'm gonna say some that might rub somebody the wrong way. But at least you know I'm genuine and I ain't never pandering or just saying anything. And I love y'all. Cause y'all let me just do that without judging. And I'm the same way with y'all. But check this out. So guess who the brat is. The brat. And this is her. This is her words, not mine. High flow. The brat is an old white scientist whose last name is Brat. She is, just like you, a Gen Xer that is still fly. And finally. And finally, her best quality is getting the name before the brat on Instagram and all other socials. Exclamation mark, exclamation mark, exclamation mark. And I like it. I like it. I love it. The Brat. And that's what I'm saying. You don't never know who listening to the flow show no filter. We got old white scientists that resonated and feel close to this community because we all cut from the same cloth. Yeah, we them Gen Xers. Yeah, we getting old, but we. It's still a lot of tread left on this tire, baby. It's still a lot of miles left on this engine. I might feel I might be old, but I don't feel old. And I think that's a. The thing, a theme of our whole community. We still got some spunkiness, so I appreciate the brat for leaving that in the fan mail. Never knew an old white scientist. Love the flow show, no filter. And with that, we go ahead. Go ahead and get out of here. I got some more Didi. Another Diddy story to break for you tomorrow that I think y'all gonna enjoy. It's so much going on in the news, I. I pretty much think we're gonna have a really good show tomorrow because there's a couple of things I wanted to talk about, but I'm waiting for some information to come in today so I could really go in on it and cook whoever need to be cooked. And as always, say, look, we gonna do what we do, keep truth alive. Bye. As always, I love y'all, but I'm.
