So happy back in this country, bro.

[Lauren Schlossman]

That's so offensive.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yo, Kigali. Rwanda is nicer than New York City in a lot of ways.

[Lauren Schlossman]

It was. Name them.

[Benny the Butcher]

I don't know. It's cleaner.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Damn.

[Benny the Butcher]

For real cleaner.

[Lauren Schlossman]

You know, that's like what people always say about, like, how New York is, like, filthy and dirty and it's like, yeah, I feel like saying that as a New Yorker, like, yeah, I wish my. My taxes were being better well spent.

[Benny the Butcher]

But, like, the mayor of Kigali is less corrupt than Eric Adams.

[Lauren Schlossman]

That' Eric Adams sets the bar very high.

[Benny the Butcher]

In terms of my dinner companion, Eric.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Adams, did you see him in Istanbul?

[Benny the Butcher]

I did not know. I did not see about Turkish Airlines. I legit. Well, we're going to talk about. It was like, yo, this is the. Yeah, this is the airline that Eric Adams takes. It is a very shitty airline. Really horrendous.

[Lauren Schlossman]

We'll talk about it.

[Benny the Butcher]

We'll talk about it next week. So you're listening to this on A Friday, possibly, as you're scrambling around googling where to buy flowers.

[Lauren Schlossman]

I mean, shit, dude.

[Benny the Butcher]

Or you're. I don't know, maybe you're a fucking little single slut and going off to a little singles party.

[Lauren Schlossman]

A mixer. Yeah. Is that a big thing that happens on Valentine's Day? Mixers?

[Benny the Butcher]

I don't know, man. Everyone's trying to mash meat. Mash meat on V Day.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Okay.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah. So happy Valentine's Day, if you're listening, on Friday, the day this comes out. Because next week we are dropping. We're back to regularly scheduled programming with the boys. Only episode dropping on Tuesday, in which I'll go through my entire trip to the motherland.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Thanks for bearing with us.

[Benny the Butcher]

The best was when I come. When I came back through customs last night, like midnight. The customs agent, JFK is like, why are in Uganda seeing family?

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yo, you got the hood pass from csa?

[Benny the Butcher]

I wish.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Damn. So right now on uganda time, it's 10:30 at night.

[Benny the Butcher]

Either 9:30 or 10:30. But it's not even that. It's that like the whole week I slept maybe an average of like three and a half hours a night, bro.

[Lauren Schlossman]

While doing strenuous physical labor and activities.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah, that's actually what kept me going.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Oh, the.

[Benny the Butcher]

The tracking and the half marathon.

[Lauren Schlossman]

I was going to say the filling your soul with good deeds. Yeah. Necessary.

[Benny the Butcher]

We didn't really do. We didn't really do any deeds. We're just kind of exposed to the good deeds being done.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Ah.

[Benny the Butcher]

But we'll talk about all that.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Sorry.

[Benny the Butcher]

Next week.

[Lauren Schlossman]

So you're not jet lagged?

[Benny the Butcher]

I'm jet lagged as boy. Okay.

[Lauren Schlossman]

All right, Gotcha.

[Benny the Butcher]

But again, maybe for. Mainly from sleep deprivation.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah, yeah. Mainly for being tortured.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah. There's a reason why it works. It works.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah. 100.

[Benny the Butcher]

What do you want to know? Ask me right now. I'm truth serum right now.

[Lauren Schlossman]

How much money do you make?

[Benny the Butcher]

Same as you, buddy. Yeah, actually probably less since you get the marriage tax breaks, which is. I mean. Yeah, that's just, you know, that doesn't happen. Africa.

[Lauren Schlossman]

The wife gets nothing.

[Benny the Butcher]

What?

[Lauren Schlossman]

What?

[Benny the Butcher]

The wife gets nothing.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah. Because it's like a very patriarchal society.

[Benny the Butcher]

No, it's a continent, not a society.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Well, I'm speaking culturally, not speaking geographically.

[Benny the Butcher]

Not necessarily. I think actually women are more employed than the men there. Typically in a lot of places.

[Lauren Schlossman]

We got an unemployment problem in this country. Regardless, my friend. Regardless of gender.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah. What I miss this week? We're gonna get into it. We're gonna get into it. First, let's get into a fiction.

[Lauren Schlossman]

You missed that. So I'm dressing like Leonardo D on the Departed now. You missed that.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah, you are.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Which is was not intentional.

[Benny the Butcher]

But one week in Fashion Week, I'll take a gun to my head.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Oh, yeah, Kanye's a Nazi. Again, you missed that. Okay, flare jeans are back.

[Benny the Butcher]

We're gonna get into it.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Well, I said again. I said again. Oh, to be clear, have you.

[Benny the Butcher]

Okay, real quick, because you have been a con. A yay apologist for a long time.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Not recently at all.

[Benny the Butcher]

For a long time you were like, oh, come on. It's just he's having an episode. All the. The maga hat, sucking Trump's dick, all that shit, all the accusations. Are you still on? No, still on Ye's dick.

[Lauren Schlossman]

No it all with anybody. I am able to separate the art from the artist, but the art has not been good for a very long time. So I could care.

[Benny the Butcher]

Wait, even now you'd be able to separate the art from the artist? Even if the art was good right now, you'd still be listening to Kanye.

[Lauren Schlossman]

I'm not buying a swastika T shirt, but if he's putting out fucking slappers, you'd be listening.

[James Harris]

[Lauren Schlossman]

Well, yo, you know what really is really bothering me? There's this. I've been seeing a Jew. No. Just as a person.

[Benny the Butcher]

As a yeast dick dick choker.

[Lauren Schlossman]

As a New Yorker. No. This is what's annoying me. Okay. Obviously there are a lot of people that are fed the fuck up with Kanye west, but this thing that I've seen multiple times on Instagram where people are like, to the 186 people that are mutuals with that I have mutuals with Kanye unf like, and it's like, who do you. I just want to first of all, I want to watch the train wreck.

[Benny the Butcher]

On the front seat to the madness.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah, exactly. So, like, okay, as long as he's not getting. Also talk to fucking Zuck. Get him deplatformed. Why am I. Why am I the problem? But you can't follow someone just because they're bad. We get followers. We're not good people. Maybe you are now, but that to me, that's so crazy. That's the problem is not that unfollow him. I'm not. I'm not giving the man money. I'm not so, like, yo, to the factory.

[Benny the Butcher]

Making these shirts Instagram account is not watching your story, my guy.

[Lauren Schlossman]

People also forget that Dove Charney is a bad person.

[Benny the Butcher]

He was in.

[Lauren Schlossman]

He was Jewish or not. He's not a good guy.

[Benny the Butcher]

He was. He was camped out with Yay. Up in Silver Lake with Milo Yapanopoulos or whatever the like circle. Yeah. Right.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah. A bunch of yeah.

[Benny the Butcher]

And yes, Jules.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah. What does yes, Jules think about all of this? Shopify deplat. That's actually the worst deplatforming because that's how he gets his bread. Also, how does Kanye west, however big Yeezy is, as a business, how do you not just have your own payment processing?

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah, thanks, Aili Banks.

[Lauren Schlossman]

She said that.

[Benny the Butcher]

She was like. That's how you know this is a dumb little man. Is that he doesn't have his own servers, doesn't have his own website. Yeah.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Either die or you live long enough to agree with Azealia Banks.

[Benny the Butcher]

What are you talking about? She's goaded. She's now on Twitter.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah, it's a it. First of all, again, front seat to a train wreck. I'm not, like, supporting anything that she has anything to do with because she's equally as unwell as.

[Benny the Butcher]

I think she's the only. Well, one.

[Lauren Schlossman]

You think she's, like, fully locked in. Every opinion she has is good. You might want to double check that. Dude. I believe she was talking about how she wants to fuck Alex Jones. Okay, so that you agree that Alex or. Or that Alex Jones, if you push back, the fat, has like 4 more inches of dick. I believe that was served up to me.

[Benny the Butcher]

Where's the issue in that? That's just simple math.

[Lauren Schlossman]

I don't know, dude. I guess I've never been that fat. Even at my worst, where I had an extra 4 inches hiding somewhere in my abdomen.

[Benny the Butcher]

You'll get there one day.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Okay, so I'm dressing like Leonardo DiCaprio on the Departed, even though I am neither A rat nor a cop.

[Benny the Butcher]

The defaulted.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah. So I got on ethically laced Timberlands. I am wearing Manresa socks. My jeans are MF Pen. And I wore them because today it was announced that our good friends at MF Pen were nominated for the LVMH Prize as a semi finalist, along with 19 other brands of which I have heard of. One other one. Yeah.

[Benny the Butcher]

Shout out to Gerd.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah. I hope he gets that bread, dog.

[Benny the Butcher]

The music that you put to your IG post about it was very scary.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah, well, that's what. That's who he is.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah, of course.

[Lauren Schlossman]

And he will now.

[Benny the Butcher]

Very surprise. Very scary. I know you're a fan of, I assume, Norwegian death metal or whatever that was. Black metal. Okay. And, yeah, it definitely woke me out of my stupor. Just like, I think actually I was like, maybe in public, and it started, yo, that's crazy.

[Lauren Schlossman]

So you're getting sleep deprivation. Deprivation, and then they're playing black metal. You're, like, in Guantanamo, dude.

[Benny the Butcher]

I am.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Or where. Where did they. Where was Kabul? Where was the. The famous. Where they took pics with the guys and there was the whole Abu Ghraib. Yeah. Damn.

[Benny the Butcher]

And Gitmo.

[Lauren Schlossman]

And Gitmo. Yeah. I mean, it's standard operating procedure. We all saw Sicario, okay. Oh, damn. Are you telling me airplane movies on Monday?

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah, sure.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Do you even remember? You gotta be taking notes, dog, on everything, Every detail.

[Benny the Butcher]

Nah, because the airplane movies suck dick. So it's like.

[Lauren Schlossman]

What is. Turkish Airlines have the Eric Adams story.

[Benny the Butcher]

It did Unchartered, featuring Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Dog. Shit.

[Benny the Butcher]

Not bad. It's just like an action. Rollicking action. You know, I. Walker, I watched on.

[Lauren Schlossman]

A plane maybe, like, two years ago.

[Benny the Butcher]

By the way, you need to match me at my energy down here.

[Lauren Schlossman]

I'm so happy to be back, dude.

[Benny the Butcher]

I can tell. You already blew through half the run a show before we even got to.

[Lauren Schlossman]

The fit check, which is great. Dude, we're just. We're just yapping. I thought it was absolutely horrendous.

[Benny the Butcher]

Okay, cool.

[Lauren Schlossman]

Yeah.

[Benny the Butcher]

Anyway, I hope you letterbox it. Watch that again. Plane movies are not movies you want to necessarily watch at home. Just rocking adventure. I missed the last, I don't know, five minutes because, like, the plane landed. I don't know. I didn't really watch any movies. I don't think. I watched the Tom Green documentary that I had downloaded. So good.

[Lauren Schlossman]

So good, dude.

[Benny the Butcher]

Yeah. You forget. You forgot how, like, huge and influential and kind of how much of a roller coaster his life really was.

[Lauren Schlossman]

This is the T F show, not the FT show. It is our favorite show. He's the man, dude. He literally. What did he predict? Podcasting. He predicted old man shopping. Western wear. Yeah.
