Episode 343: We Debate This Generation: What I Find Troubling

We assert at the outset that the principal contention of our discourse is that the emergent generation exhibits a bifurcated character: on one hand pronounced fragility, diminished accountability, and an unsettling propensity to commodify imprudence via social media; on the other hand a salutary openness concerning mental health and an energetic readiness to mobilize for sociopolitical causes. I delineate the criticisms we advanced with specificity, noting that children frequently crumble under critique, that parental complicity in viralizing foolishness exacerbates the problem, and that institutional overprotection has distorted consequences. We likewise acknowledge and commend the virtues we observed, including broader social acceptance, increased advocacy for mental wellness, and an uncommon willingness among youths to commit fervently to convictions. I emphasise practical admonitions offered in the dialogue: guardians should protect their progeny from self-inflicted reputational harm and citizens should cultivate self-reliance skills such as cooking to mitigate needless expense. We close by reaffirming our perspective that the generation under scrutiny is neither monolithically failing nor wholly exemplary, and that judicious guidance combined with measured accountability constitutes the prudent path forward.

You never ever grinder before?

Speaker A:

I think so, but I don't know really what it is.

Speaker B:

I'll just say it.

Speaker B:

Just.

Speaker B:

Just in general.

Speaker B:

Just call it a hoagie.

Speaker A:

Okay.

Speaker B:

Kind of the same thing.

Speaker A:

All right, that's fair.

Speaker A:

Cool.

Speaker A:

Cool.

Speaker A:

Good stuff.

Speaker A:

Good stuff.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

I made chicken shrimp burritos with rice and mushrooms in it today.

Speaker B:

Nice.

Speaker A:

I haven't made one for tomorrow and I have some leftover for the next day.

Speaker B:

Okay.

Speaker A:

But I have learned that rice doesn't stay long in the refrigerator.

Speaker B:

How do you figure that rice lasts for a week.

Speaker A:

Well, it dries out.

Speaker B:

See, that's where you're making fried rice.

Speaker A:

True that.

Speaker A:

So I may do that tomorrow.

Speaker A:

We'll see how.

Speaker A:

We'll see how things happen.

Speaker A:

Bam.

Speaker A:

But other than that, everything been good.

Speaker A:

Life's beautiful.

Speaker B:

It's a little busy, but, yeah, everything's cool.

Speaker B:

Everything is cool.

Speaker B:

I got a job.

Speaker B:

I am gainfully employed.

Speaker A:

All right, well, that's good.

Speaker B:

I'm able to buy gas and groceries without going into too much debt.

Speaker B:

My wife is a smokehouse and she got nice feet.

Speaker B:

So life is good, bro.

Speaker A:

All right?

Speaker A:

Unless you have the feet thing.

Speaker A:

I'm not about the feet thing.

Speaker B:

There is nothing worse than an ugly feet, sir.

Speaker B:

I'm not, I'm not necessarily.

Speaker B:

You know, the funny thing is I'm not necessarily a foot guy, but it definitely enhances beauty.

Speaker B:

I promise you that.

Speaker B:

If you, if you're a woman, you got ugly feet, you better cook.

Speaker A:

You got to do something to make up for that hundred percent, bro.

Speaker B:

I mean like my, like my mother in law has one foot that's got a, you know, where the, she's been wearing heels so long where the big toe just kind of goes in and then you create a bunion there, bruh.

Speaker B:

Takes away from her beauty.

Speaker B:

I promise you it does.

Speaker A:

Wow, man, I'm mad you just going shaded your mother in law.

Speaker B:

It's not sh.

Speaker B:

She know.

Speaker A:

But you had to call her out like that, man.

Speaker B:

I mean, even though, even though she's a Trump supporter and she's a little tone deaf, she knows that I, I, I rock with her.

Speaker B:

But she's also an example of a Ferrari with a den in the door.

Speaker B:

Just saying.

Speaker A:

Oh, damn.

Speaker B:

So, so when I look at my wife's foot, I'm like, yo, that's what's up.

Speaker A:

Wow.

Speaker A:

Ferrari with a dent in the door.

Speaker A:

God damn.

Speaker B:

You know, you don't trade that in, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker B:

You don't trade a Ferrari just because it's got a dent in the door.

Speaker B:

Get the dent fixed.

Speaker B:

But I'm just saying, you know.

Speaker A:

All right, I think we're gonna move away from that because it sounds like a whole bunch of cash shit about to happen.

Speaker A:

So it ain't gonna happen.

Speaker B:

She don't listen to the show.

Speaker B:

Black people on the show.

Speaker A:

Did you say black people on the show?

Speaker D:

Yes.

Speaker A:

So she don't listen.

Speaker A:

That's fine, man.

Speaker B:

She's definite afraid of black people speak.

Speaker A:

You know what?

Speaker A:

That's a conversation for another day.

Speaker B:

And we can have a conversation right now.

Speaker A:

Nah, I don't want to cuz I want to get into something else.

Speaker A:

Okay, real quick.

Speaker A:

I know it wasn't on the show notes, but it came to my realization that your boy in Florida has got off the truck train.

Speaker B:

My boy?

Speaker B:

Who's that?

Speaker B:

Donald's.

Speaker A:

Donald is off the truck?

Speaker B:

Well, no, no, no, no, no.

Speaker B:

I got to stop you there.

Speaker B:

You know why I'm stopping you?

Speaker B:

Not because it's not true.

Speaker A:

Okay?

Speaker B:

But the reason why I'm going to believe you as though it's true without any inspection or verification, okay, is because him, like all the other Republicans that are that have important things coming up in the midterm, are trying to distance themselves from, from Trump.

Speaker B:

It Means nothing.

Speaker B:

He's still that dude.

Speaker B:

He's still a tap dancing coon.

Speaker B:

However, he's not, he's not a dumb coon, okay?

Speaker B:

He, he understands how to hoof it, but he also understands when the show's over and it's just like, bruh, you need to get away from me.

Speaker B:

You need to get away from everybody.

Speaker B:

But Trump is such a narcissist and has such a God complex.

Speaker B:

None of that is going to happen.

Speaker B:

was a:

Speaker A:

What?

Speaker B:

Bro, that's what he said.

Speaker B:

IQ in history of IQs and it's:

Speaker B:

The scale, to my knowledge, only goes to 200 and it might be even smaller than that.

Speaker B:

So anyway, all the Republicans are distancing themselves from Trump as fast as they can.

Speaker B:

That's how this is the first president to my knowledge in my lifetime and I'm approaching 60 because I turn 57 in a month that has had a approval rate.

Speaker B:

I know we don't go by, you know, ratings and polls on the show necessarily.

Speaker B:

However, the idea that a questionable rating can be approaching the 20s.

Speaker B:

I heard two ratings that were 31 and 32% approval.

Speaker A:

Look, man, who are those?

Speaker A:

That's the question.

Speaker B:

Well, they out there.

Speaker B:

That's why I keep telling people to go vote, because 32, 32% of the people in the world think he's doing a wonderful job.

Speaker A:

Oh, in the country?

Speaker B:

Well, yeah.

Speaker B:

I'm sorry, in the country.

Speaker B:

So I'm like, all of that stuff together lets me know that Byron Donalds is still tap dancing.

Speaker B:

But he understands when the show is over, it's time to move on until things cool down.

Speaker B:

If you steal the Mona Lisa, it's almost something you can't fence.

Speaker A:

Yeah, that's true.

Speaker B:

Good on you that you stole it.

Speaker B:

But what are you gonna do with it?

Speaker B:

Trump is the same thing.

Speaker B:

He is as hot as molten lava right now, bro.

Speaker B:

You can't turn that over.

Speaker B:

I'm just saying.

Speaker B:

So I don't give him too much credit.

Speaker B:

And that's the only reason I said what I said.

Speaker B:

Don't give him too much credit.

Speaker B:

If that's where you're going.

Speaker B:

Please don't do that.

Speaker A:

No, no, I mean, you know, he's.

Speaker A:

You are correct.

Speaker A:

He is still a type.

Speaker A:

Dancing coon, like without question.

Speaker A:

Like, I don't Care if the dude turned Democrat tomorrow.

Speaker A:

I remember him.

Speaker A:

I remember who he was.

Speaker B:

All the receipts or who he is, all the receipts.

Speaker A:

F that guy.

Speaker A:

Like, that guy is the worst.

Speaker A:

And so my.

Speaker A:

My question to you is,.

Speaker C:

Will he.

Speaker A:

Still win governor of Florida?

Speaker B:

Well, he's got a good chance of winning governor of Florida because of everything I usually say on this show.

Speaker B:

Mo says it sometimes too, where there is an enormous amount of value in a black person that is.

Speaker B:

I'm not gonna say tap dance because it needs more explanation than that, that a black person that is fiercely right leaning for almost any reason.

Speaker B:

So he has, in my mind, without understanding what the, you know, what the landscape political.

Speaker B:

The political landscape is, he has a wonderful chance to win this election.

Speaker B:

If he wins, I will not lose any sleep because I figure he could win.

Speaker B:

I'm telling you, man, black people that vote like your average white person is super important to white people because it gives them.

Speaker B:

It gives them a shield and it gives them shelter and it gives them comfort.

Speaker B:

So I'm just letting you know he's got a good chance of that.

Speaker A:

What's going on, Moby?

Speaker C:

Not much, man.

Speaker A:

We were just talking about your boy in Florida.

Speaker C:

I don't have any peoples in Florida.

Speaker C:

I'm not an international connoisseur like that.

Speaker B:

You mean you ain't got a passport to Florida?

Speaker C:

No, I don't.

Speaker C:

I've been there a few times, but it's probably illegal.

Speaker B:

It was.

Speaker B:

You didn't have a passport.

Speaker B:

How did you get past the line, man?

Speaker B:

How'd you get past Georgia?

Speaker B:

I mean, the line in Georgia, I.

Speaker C:

I was a big black guy, so they prob.

Speaker C:

Thought I was coming to play football.

Speaker B:

You know what?

Speaker A:

Now we'll just basically talk about how bright.

Speaker A:

Donald said a whole bunch of other Republicans are trying to do the moonwalk backwards from Trump.

Speaker A:

Maybe too little too late, but, you know, because they trying to win their elections, their midterm elections and things as such.

Speaker A:

And you know, of course you.

Speaker A:

Donald is running for governor of Florida.

Speaker A:

So, you know, well, not gonna.

Speaker A:

L. I mean, we.

Speaker A:

We know he's still a coon and everything, but just watching him try to moonwalk backwards is kind of funny.

Speaker B:

You can't, because I'm telling you, it's like I tell my wife all the time.

Speaker B:

I know you.

Speaker A:

Yeah, yeah, he's fine.

Speaker B:

But you look like the enemy, so you are the enemy when you in the street.

Speaker B:

You a white woman that.

Speaker B:

That tell on a black man so he can go to jail for 30 years or maybe get hung outside A police station.

Speaker B:

That's who you are.

Speaker B:

Whether you like it or not.

Speaker B:

You look like the enemy, so I don't care what he does.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

So, I mean, not, you know, because I just.

Speaker A:

I wanted to bring it up because I thought it was both funny, sad, and just despicable at the same time.

Speaker B:

But it's.

Speaker A:

It's.

Speaker A:

But it's normal.

Speaker C:

Yes.

Speaker C:

Yes, I was about to say yes.

Speaker B:

I mean, it's like there's no news here, sir.

Speaker B:

I'm glad you brought it up because I think it needs to be talked about, but I'm not gonna act like it's brand new.

Speaker B:

It's not.

Speaker B:

So.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I'm not gonna lie, man.

Speaker A:

The sad part about it is I would almost rather anybody else win, other than that guy, just because I hear what you're saying.

Speaker B:

But he's got an incredible amount of value to the party.

Speaker B:

He just does.

Speaker A:

No, he does.

Speaker A:

He does.

Speaker C:

Absolutely.

Speaker A:

I just think it's interesting that the white Democrat's gonna lose that.

Speaker B:

That person.

Speaker B:

That person might.

Speaker B:

Because, you know, a white Democrat and if you, if you juxtapose a white Democrat and a black rep, the black Republican has vastly more value to their respective parties.

Speaker C:

I mean, the crazy thing is if white people didn't hate black people so much, or some of them white people didn't hate black people so much, they'd realize that getting more black people to represent them would be beneficial for them politically because just like Ag said, there's so much more value in them.

Speaker C:

But the problem is they.

Speaker C:

They still can't let it be too many.

Speaker C:

They still like, it's cool to have sprinkle, but you know what I'm saying, you get a little too heavy handed on that seasoning.

Speaker C:

They like, nah, man, we.

Speaker C:

Our palate can't take it, bro.

Speaker B:

Again, racism is expensive.

Speaker A:

Sir, when is the last time we heard from Tim Scott?

Speaker A:

That motherfucker.

Speaker B:

He got banished though, right?

Speaker A:

That.

Speaker A:

No, he's just ghost.

Speaker B:

I mean, but because he got banished, right?

Speaker B:

Didn't he say something against Trump?

Speaker C:

It's not even really about banished.

Speaker C:

Like you're surprised at this.

Speaker C:

Like, no, you didn't hear about Donaldson or Tim Scott until it was close to elections, before war.

Speaker C:

They only bring these up when it gets close to, you know, time for election, you know, hey, we need these.

Speaker C:

Let's bring them up again.

Speaker B:

Yes, sir, boss.

Speaker B:

Yes, sir, boss.

Speaker B:

100.

Speaker C:

100.

Speaker C:

And I'm not even saying that to like to be funny.

Speaker B:

I'm just like, that's the truth.

Speaker C:

It's just an observation.

Speaker B:

It's just a matter of fact.

Speaker A:

You're not.

Speaker A:

You're 100 right on that.

Speaker A:

It's.

Speaker A:

It's funny, I mean, because like, like, literally, man, we hear more about the dude in Minnesot.

Speaker C:

Who?

Speaker A:

What's his name?

Speaker A:

Ah, crap.

Speaker B:

I'm talking about a government.

Speaker A:

Minnesota.

Speaker A:

No, no, the guy running for office.

Speaker A:

And he's a Muslim.

Speaker B:

I think I know you're talking about, but I don't recall his name.

Speaker A:

I don't remember his name either.

Speaker A:

And, like, they try, you know, he's a Democratic candidate and they're trying to obviously get him out, but the people, like, voted him, like, like crazy.

Speaker A:

And, like, hey, man, I don't care who you are.

Speaker A:

This is the dude.

Speaker A:

And, you know, miss me with all the other.

Speaker A:

That's pretty much what they're saying.

Speaker A:

And it looks like he's gonna get elected again.

Speaker A:

And then, of course, I mean, ever since old boy dropped out of the main race, nobody heard from Maine in months.

Speaker B:

There's nothing.

Speaker B:

There's nothing.

Speaker B:

Yeah, because the.

Speaker B:

The woman that he was running against, Platner was running against, was like, the og and he was her only challenge, you know?

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

And once he.

Speaker B:

Boyle, right?

Speaker A:

Not Susan Boyle.

Speaker A:

No, Collins.

Speaker A:

Collins.

Speaker B:

Susan boy is the singer.

Speaker A:

Well, okay.

Speaker B:

Well, no, she sings well.

Speaker B:

Anyway, we're gonna move on, so.

Speaker B:

We're moving on.

Speaker B:

We are moving on.

Speaker A:

You're welcome, sir.

Speaker C:

You're welco.

Speaker B:

We are moving on.

Speaker B:

Anyway, Susan Collins was gonna win without anybody, but Platner kind of gave her a run for her money.

Speaker B:

But then he, you know, he was out here, you know, essaying and abusing women and whatnot, whatever it is, and he finally had to bow out.

Speaker B:

So because of that, they have a new.

Speaker B:

They installed a new person.

Speaker B:

I didn't even hear about this dude until, like, Friday night on the way home.

Speaker A:

I'm like, I don't know who it is.

Speaker B:

And.

Speaker C:

But.

Speaker A:

But apparently, apparently they're throwing money at.

Speaker B:

Him, but I don't think he ain.

Speaker B:

He ain't got a chance against Collins, bro.

Speaker A:

He ain't got a chance.

Speaker B:

And then she's.

Speaker B:

She's the head of Appropriations, so she can.

Speaker B:

She can directly impact how much money Maine gets.

Speaker B:

It's hard to let that go.

Speaker A:

The crazy part about it is the people in Maine absolutely hate her.

Speaker B:

Doesn't matter.

Speaker A:

But.

Speaker A:

But they can't get her out.

Speaker B:

Exactly.

Speaker B:

Because enough people understand what time it is.

Speaker A:

Yes.

Speaker A:

Wow.

Speaker B:

It's just like, you know, it's just like Con Harris and I, you know, personal.

Speaker B:

We probably Wouldn't get along.

Speaker B:

But it's just like, I'm still gonna vote for her.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Yo, man, that's why so many people are upset with Tom Morello right now.

Speaker B:

So it's just like, it's the same thing.

Speaker B:

It's just like, I don't like you, but I know that you can do something for me.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

So here we are.

Speaker A:

I mean, yo, man, it's just.

Speaker A:

It's just crazy how man was like, I mean, he did some stuff for some women.

Speaker A:

He's still better than Susan Cops.

Speaker B:

I was like, but see, it got to be too much.

Speaker B:

And then it looked like he was lying about it and.

Speaker B:

Okay, this is something I wanted to ask y', like 6 months ago when all this came out.

Speaker B:

What is going on with wives nowadays, man?

Speaker C:

It's like they can't keep.

Speaker A:

No, they can't.

Speaker B:

Like they out here telling us that, telling the game, you're it.

Speaker B:

It would be different if you weren't married to them.

Speaker B:

I could see where you had an ax to grind.

Speaker B:

But have you noticed the pattern in.

Speaker B:

In like political wives now where they like, oh, he did that.

Speaker B:

He showed up, did that.

Speaker B:

Oh, he did that too.

Speaker B:

Oh, I got some stuff.

Speaker B:

I got some receipts too.

Speaker B:

I'm like, oh, y' all telling on people like that.

Speaker A:

I mean, what's.

Speaker A:

I mean, I guess it followed up with a divorce because, I mean, I mean, me out like that, we can't be together.

Speaker B:

I just thought it was me.

Speaker B:

I was like, these women out here telling it, they are like, I don't way say I don't like you, but the behavior lets me know everything I need to know.

Speaker C:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker C:

They don't, they don't.

Speaker C:

They don't with them,.

Speaker B:

But they do.

Speaker A:

With them because they still married.

Speaker B:

Because there's, there's a financial.

Speaker B:

There's a financial thing.

Speaker B:

Exactly.

Speaker C:

That don't mean they with you.

Speaker C:

That, that means they're still using, right?

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

But then like, if you.

Speaker C:

I mean, does anybody think like Donald Trump's wife with him?

Speaker A:

No.

Speaker C:

No.

Speaker A:

But I mean, I guess my thing is it's like, hey, man, your man, you, you, you have a shitty husband, but he about to make a shitload more money and you gonna that up for him.

Speaker A:

Like what?

Speaker C:

That's the thing.

Speaker C:

It's not it up for them though, because Reuben.

Speaker C:

All right, so let's play this out.

Speaker C:

Let's play the long game because I see what you're saying, but I think, I think your vision is short sighted.

Speaker C:

Okay, so you're like, all right, you're with this guy, you're trying to use him financially, and then you're gonna say something that could have ramifications on him making money, right?

Speaker A:

Correct.

Speaker C:

All right.

Speaker C:

It's not gonna make him not have money.

Speaker C:

It's gonna keep him from making more money.

Speaker A:

Cool.

Speaker C:

Worst case scenario, like you said, hey, he's gonna get mad divorce, she's gonna get half of what he has, and because she aired out his dirty laundry, she's now a victim.

Speaker C:

And that's profitable because now she can write a book, now she can do for profit.

Speaker C:

So the long game is to say he sucks, become a victim, take half his and make some money because of it.

Speaker A:

I mean, it's super logical.

Speaker B:

No, it's super real.

Speaker A:

Real?

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

I mean, that's.

Speaker B:

Yeah, that's our logic is not like, you know, matter of fact, that's super real.

Speaker A:

I feel like, man, I feel like every other day, man, just.

Speaker A:

I get another reason not to get married.

Speaker B:

No, there are plenty of reasons.

Speaker B:

We've tried to tell you a lot of those reasons, sir.

Speaker A:

Jesus.

Speaker A:

But, I mean, yeah, man, it's like.

Speaker A:

Like, especially like, for guaranteed, man, if I get married.

Speaker A:

Prenup, bro.

Speaker A:

Prenup.

Speaker A:

Yeah, what's that?

Speaker A:

What's the other thing?

Speaker A:

Like, you can't say, like, at all.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I need it all, baby.

Speaker A:

Like, you.

Speaker A:

Like, I need to.

Speaker A:

J.J. reddick, that for real.

Speaker A:

Like, hey, baby, as long as we married, you can't say about nothing about.

Speaker B:

What we do, they might want to put in there.

Speaker B:

As long as we're married, you gotta have sex with me, that goes away, too.

Speaker A:

Yeah, man.

Speaker A:

Hell yeah.

Speaker A:

We gotta do all that.

Speaker A:

Like, I mean, damn if I'm gonna do all that.

Speaker A:

Just move in and we can just be together and not get married.

Speaker A:

Shit.

Speaker A:

And then you get the cow.

Speaker B:

No, stop that.

Speaker B:

That's dangerous, too, sir.

Speaker A:

I'm not saying it's not.

Speaker A:

I'm just saying.

Speaker B:

No, don't.

Speaker B:

Stop protecting yourself.

Speaker B:

I don't care what you do.

Speaker B:

If it's with a woman, you can't protest it.

Speaker A:

Oh, no, no.

Speaker A:

I'm not saying.

Speaker A:

I'm not protecting myself.

Speaker A:

What I'm saying is, you know, instead of being married, you just have a girlfriend forever.

Speaker B:

What I'm telling me is she.

Speaker C:

I'm just saying.

Speaker C:

I see what AG's saying.

Speaker C:

Because what you have to do is you have to see be when your common law statute is in your estate.

Speaker C:

And then when you get about six months before you get there, you gotta kick the out for at least that you got at Least kick her out for like 30 days and then that clock resets.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I don't know if that's legally.

Speaker C:

How it works, but if it is, I'm surprised somebody ain't done it before.

Speaker A:

Because it's too much, man.

Speaker A:

That's too much.

Speaker B:

It's not too much.

Speaker B:

You can take everything that you own.

Speaker A:

Well, no, I'm just saying like, actually.

Speaker B:

You don't own anything.

Speaker B:

You're paying.

Speaker A:

Well, I'm saying it's almost easier to marry than divorce and go by whatever the terms of the prenup is than it is to not get married.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

I live together in common law because trying to kick somebody out, especially in a commonwealth, Virginia, is difficult.

Speaker C:

Like out of baby.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

I mean, between that.

Speaker A:

Yeah, it's, it's hard, man.

Speaker A:

So it's like.

Speaker A:

But yeah, man.

Speaker A:

I mean, hey, man, got Tom Cruise that man.

Speaker A:

Oh, what we have six months.

Speaker A:

Nicole, Deuces, Chick.

Speaker A:

Like before that hits.

Speaker A:

I mean we could be, we can sit here and say whatever, but we know that was, that was the plan because that, that 10 year mark was about to hit.

Speaker A:

Time to go.

Speaker A:

And I mean we can all be mad about it or we can congratulate him for doing the.

Speaker A:

Doing the.

Speaker C:

Or we can do neither and just be like, respect the game.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

I respect the game.

Speaker C:

I ain't gotta like the rules.

Speaker C:

I ain't gotta like the way it's played, but I respect the game.

Speaker A:

Ah, Moko Cowboys doing that.

Speaker A:

Doing, doing that research for us.

Speaker A:

Virginia does not allow couples to create a new common law marriage within the state.

Speaker A:

But that is AI, he says so I know in sir, I think Ohio is eight years.

Speaker A:

Is eight years.

Speaker A:

You live together for eight years, you get a marriage certificate sent to your house.

Speaker A:

Which is crazy that they watch it like that.

Speaker A:

Like they're watching that.

Speaker A:

And I guess in North Carolina is like, as long as she's 13, you know, she's good to go.

Speaker C:

Go.

Speaker C:

You'll never let that go, man.

Speaker C:

You'll never let that go.

Speaker A:

Never let that go between that Kentucky, man.

Speaker A:

Like, I can't let either one of those go.

Speaker A:

It's hard.

Speaker A:

But you know, I be the truth is the truth, man.

Speaker A:

Sorry for all you people who live in North Carolina.

Speaker A:

Don't be them.

Speaker C:

I'm going say it ain't all the people in North Carolina.

Speaker C:

It's just the fact that that rule is still in place.

Speaker C:

That's still in place.

Speaker A:

I wish I, you know, still a thing.

Speaker A:

I kind of wish I knew what episode that was just to go back and listen.

Speaker B:

That was years ago, man.

Speaker B:

Years ago.

Speaker A:

That, that might have been a two hour episode or two.

Speaker A:

Because we were just like, what the.

Speaker C:

Yeah.

Speaker C:

For anybody who doesn't know, we had an episode a long time ago in which somebody did research on what is the age that women have can consent to being married.

Speaker C:

And we found out that was much lower than we had actually thought.

Speaker B:

14.

Speaker A:

So the reason why is because an article came up about somebody marrying like a 14 year old.

Speaker A:

And I was just like, what the fuck?

Speaker A:

And doing my research.

Speaker A:

That is very legal in the state of.

Speaker A:

The state of North Carolina.

Speaker A:

And a lot of people apparently will go take their teenage brides to North Carolina and get married and then go back to their state and be like, we married.

Speaker A:

Well, the state's like, well, you're not.

Speaker A:

Well, we're married in North Carolina and like that.

Speaker A:

AKA the, the other basis of human trafficking.

Speaker A:

So.

Speaker A:

Yeah, but I, I'm gonna, I gotta find the episode because that was a very interesting episode.

Speaker A:

I was a whole bunch of sad and mad at the same time time.

Speaker A:

And yeah, just.

Speaker A:

I'm not saying bomb should happen in certain places.

Speaker A:

I'm just saying some needs to be erased off the map.

Speaker C:

Once again, it's not the location's fault.

Speaker C:

It's simply, it's simply an issue of legislation.

Speaker A:

It's definitely.

Speaker A:

Well, the legislators need to at least do like.

Speaker A:

I get it, man.

Speaker C:

Because I imagine Reuben, if somebody were to present that.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker C:

On, on a vote in North Carolina, I feel like now I could be wrong here.

Speaker C:

Feel like that thing could get voted up.

Speaker C:

Like if they were like, hey man, can we raise the legal consenting age for marriage for a woman?

Speaker C:

I feel like most people would be like, yeah.

Speaker C:

Or most people would be like us and be like, what you mean it's 14.

Speaker C:

Now granted, people be.

Speaker C:

Might be a lot of discrepancy in how people are saying that.

Speaker C:

That might be a whole bunch of people is like, yo, it's only 14.

Speaker C:

And there'll be other people like, yo, it's only 14.

Speaker C:

Like, you know, like, like two different reasons, same sentence.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

Telling yourself by inflection.

Speaker B:

Yes, you're right.

Speaker C:

Once again, like, like I said, we all say the same thing, but we wouldn't be saying the same thing 100%.

Speaker A:

Jesus.

Speaker A:

I mean, hey, all that goes to show is every state and commonwealth in this country is different.

Speaker A:

I don't know if it should be that different, but it is.

Speaker A:

You know, it's one thing to have abortion laws.

Speaker A:

It's another Thing to have marriage laws.

Speaker A:

I think we're talking two different things, but it's still sad on both counts.

Speaker B:

So.

Speaker A:

All right, so the question of the day, I think it's a pretty simple question.

Speaker A:

It's actually a two parter.

Speaker A:

So what about this generation bothers you the most?

Speaker A:

And what about this generation?

Speaker A:

Do you envy ag Talk to us.

Speaker B:

Well, you know, I thought it was a great question because it's something we sit around and complain about constantly.

Speaker B:

Usually it's negative, like I said, complaining, but no one ever asked, like, you know, do we look at these people and go mad?

Speaker B:

Respect.

Speaker B:

That's the part that's always missing.

Speaker B:

We're not, we don't really balance it out.

Speaker B:

We always complain about young people and that's all we do.

Speaker B:

Same thing I experienced when I was young.

Speaker B:

Same thing all of us experienced when we're young.

Speaker B:

We're all bad and none of us are good.

Speaker B:

We'll never amount to anything.

Speaker B:

Well, that's not true.

Speaker B:

But you know, I will start out with the complaining so I can get to the good part, the biggest complaint.

Speaker B:

And I, and I have a direct line of this stuff because I don't know what the kids are going to be called that are in my wife's second grade class, that she's a teacher, teacher's aide.

Speaker C:

But.

Speaker B:

These kids are soft.

Speaker B:

Now.

Speaker B:

I'm not.

Speaker B:

It's kind of pots and kettles because I'm soft too.

Speaker B:

The reason why is because I grew up in the suburbs.

Speaker B:

So would I like, am I savage?

Speaker B:

No.

Speaker B:

If you push me, yes.

Speaker B:

But am I like naturally savage?

Speaker B:

And can I take a punch?

Speaker B:

Probably not.

Speaker B:

I can if I have to.

Speaker B:

But now.

Speaker B:

But these kids now, when I'm looking, I'm looking at myself and I'm looking at them and I'm going, bro, you are not gonna make it.

Speaker B:

You're just not.

Speaker B:

You're handing out meanness, but you can't handle meanness coming back to you.

Speaker B:

Now that's a human thing.

Speaker B:

I do want to put that out there.

Speaker B:

But you can make a child crumble by saying you didn't do a good.

Speaker A:

Job,.

Speaker B:

You failed a test or whatever.

Speaker B:

And it's like, no, you didn't do a good job.

Speaker B:

Whether you say it or whether you write it down as F or E, whatever they're doing now, these kids crumble.

Speaker A:

The fuck is an E?

Speaker B:

You never had to eat before?

Speaker A:

No.

Speaker B:

What did you get when you fail something?

Speaker B:

What was the letter they used?

Speaker A:

A, B, C, D, F, like, okay,.

Speaker B:

Well, some people, like, you need to Finish that shit.

Speaker B:

Well, some, some.

Speaker B:

Some areas used E as opposed to F. I never had an F because an E was our failing.

Speaker B:

Anyway, as we digress, what I'm saying to you is.

Speaker B:

What are you talking about?

Speaker A:

I'm still.

Speaker A:

I'm sorry, man.

Speaker A:

This E thing, I mean, it just.

Speaker B:

Depended on the district you're in, sir.

Speaker B:

Some people had Fs, some people had.

Speaker B:

And then we're.

Speaker B:

You're younger than me and it could have changed by the time I graduated.

Speaker B:

Or it could have changed or whatever.

Speaker B:

I'm.

Speaker B:

All I'm saying, I'm saying is different districts use different letters.

Speaker C:

Is that where the, the whole phrase E for effort came from?

Speaker B:

Yeah, because you tried to make that E look good.

Speaker B:

That was, that was jokes.

Speaker B:

That was jokes.

Speaker B:

Like if you did have an ethic.

Speaker B:

My school, we always had jokes.

Speaker B:

I said, I know these kids soft.

Speaker B:

But anyway, in my school, be like, you got a F. F A.

Speaker B:

Fantastic.

Speaker B:

You know, you was dumb.

Speaker B:

You was dumb.

Speaker A:

I mean, so you got E for elongated failure.

Speaker A:

Like, what the.

Speaker B:

Exactly.

Speaker B:

Now you're using E. First of all,.

Speaker C:

You think the who got to E knows what elongated mean?

Speaker B:

Exactly, Exactly.

Speaker A:

Say that.

Speaker A:

So how about this, aj?

Speaker A:

What?

Speaker A:

Before you continue, let's change it up a little bit.

Speaker A:

Let's go overall.

Speaker A:

Let's each take one, go over the bad things, and then we'll turn around and do all the good things.

Speaker A:

Because back in the day, if you have three negatives, then you have to say a positive.

Speaker A:

So let's do our negatives, then we can do positive.

Speaker C:

I thought you were supposed to do three positives for every negative.

Speaker B:

Yeah, you're supposed to get.

Speaker B:

You actually supposed to start out with the positive before you do anything to soften the blow of the negative.

Speaker B:

Now we're being soft.

Speaker B:

So what are we doing?

Speaker A:

Doing that.

Speaker A:

That's why I was trying to go.

Speaker C:

Based on what he was saying because he, you know, he said it incorrectly.

Speaker C:

I mean, I.

Speaker C:

These kids.

Speaker B:

I'm just saying he's not wrong.

Speaker B:

I'm like, why are we being soft out here?

Speaker A:

No, I'm just saying, like, let's get all the negatives out first.

Speaker A:

Because we're cuz.

Speaker A:

What I'm saying is it make.

Speaker A:

We all may have the same negative that matters.

Speaker A:

I mean, I would just say it.

Speaker A:

I mean, we can do it.

Speaker B:

I've said my negative.

Speaker B:

I think these kids are soft.

Speaker B:

And you know, in.

Speaker B:

The main reason why they're soft is because they don't have any consequences.

Speaker B:

That's why they can't handle the Response because you have a lot of kids out here that I see will say horrible things and if you say something back to them, like, don't ever say that again, they're crushed.

Speaker B:

You have a bully and he get his behind whip, then all of a sudden he's the victim.

Speaker B:

They start off, they soft.

Speaker B:

So anyway, that's my, that's my one negative.

Speaker B:

I only had one, so you know.

Speaker B:

Oh, for real?

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

You didn't, you didn't tell me.

Speaker A:

I had to have a list.

Speaker A:

Oh, I'm sorry.

Speaker A:

I just.

Speaker A:

I got three.

Speaker B:

Okay, go ahead.

Speaker A:

So.

Speaker A:

I mean, yo, man, they like the worst music ever.

Speaker A:

Like this is terrible.

Speaker A:

I mean, mumble rap has to be the most.

Speaker A:

The worst non piece of music ever created.

Speaker A:

I know that's.

Speaker A:

I man, I know that's petty, man.

Speaker A:

But I mean, bro, we had a conversation a couple weeks ago about Lil Yachty.

Speaker A:

Like that guy.

Speaker A:

No shade on Lil Yachty, man.

Speaker A:

You got paid.

Speaker A:

You do you.

Speaker A:

But.

Speaker B:

How can you say no shade, man?

Speaker A:

He.

Speaker A:

He know he can't rap.

Speaker A:

Like, let's just be real.

Speaker A:

But he.

Speaker B:

You said you're talking about a whole genre of music.

Speaker A:

I mean, I am, cuz some of that sucks.

Speaker A:

What the did I just say?

Speaker A:

Nothing.

Speaker A:

I'm just saying like.

Speaker C:

And.

Speaker C:

And older people thought the same thing about the music you listen.

Speaker B:

Exactly.

Speaker B:

I just finished saying.

Speaker B:

I just finished saying that.

Speaker A:

I mean, that's fair.

Speaker A:

They also have a lack of creativity.

Speaker A:

They're not creative about it much, as far as I could tell.

Speaker A:

Unless there's some I ain't seen.

Speaker B:

You gotta give examples with these, these opinions.

Speaker A:

Well, so like for instance, and a lot of the, A lot of the new directors and stuff.

Speaker A:

Hey man, let's keep reaction these old movies and try to do it better.

Speaker A:

How about you just come up with some original.

Speaker B:

That's not fair.

Speaker B:

Every generation does that.

Speaker C:

And not only that, Reuben, the people who are making those are older people.

Speaker B:

Yeah, they old, man.

Speaker D:

So.

Speaker C:

So you're not talking about the next generation.

Speaker C:

So you mad at the next generation for not knowing what the original ones were and watching these remakes or prequels that nobody asked for?

Speaker A:

Well, I want to talk about.

Speaker A:

Yeah, you're right.

Speaker A:

No way.

Speaker A:

That's for that.

Speaker A:

I really want to talk about the prequels per se, but I was like, how many times are we gonna remake it, bro?

Speaker C:

The same amount of times we're gonna remake Spider man and Batman and Superman.

Speaker A:

That's true.

Speaker A:

We need to stop that.

Speaker A:

Okay, so they are also disillusioned by history.

Speaker A:

Like they're they're pretty much like, well, that didn't work for y', all, but it'll work for us.

Speaker A:

I'm like, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker A:

I'm just like, you know, because when they say, if you don't understand your history, you're doomed to repeat it, they're just like, man, that we're gonna do it better.

Speaker A:

And I'm just like.

Speaker B:

But I remember being in a generation that felt that way.

Speaker C:

I was about to say, that's every generation.

Speaker C:

You're just describing.

Speaker C:

I mean, that's.

Speaker C:

That's why old folks just made all them sayings, like, nothing new under the sun.

Speaker C:

Because, you know, teenagers act like they know everything.

Speaker C:

They're the first to do everything.

Speaker C:

It's like, no, man, you just.

Speaker C:

Y' all just repackage that.

Speaker C:

All y' all did was repackage it.

Speaker A:

Yeah, man, take that.

Speaker A:

Take that.

Speaker A:

Like, Jesus.

Speaker A:

I mean, you're right, because somebody in 20 years is going to have a whole bunch of baby oil, just like your boy did.

Speaker A:

Oh, man, this is great.

Speaker A:

I'm just like, bro, they did this shit 20 years ago.

Speaker C:

I'm pretty.

Speaker C:

I'm pretty sure that's been going on forever.

Speaker C:

You just.

Speaker C:

We just didn't make a big deal out of it because we didn't know about it, which we shouldn't know about it, in all fairness.

Speaker C:

Like, we don't need to know about.

Speaker B:

We do now.

Speaker B:

Yeah, I agree.

Speaker B:

But we do now.

Speaker A:

So that's.

Speaker A:

That's all I got.

Speaker A:

Moby, what you got?

Speaker C:

What I don't like about it is the.

Speaker C:

The amount of success stupidity can bring you that I feel like that is exclusive to this generation.

Speaker C:

I mean, because we.

Speaker C:

We always see all these clips of people just, like, having no basic knowledge of anything.

Speaker C:

Like, I know, Reuben, you talked about kids don't write in cursive.

Speaker C:

And, you know, part of me is like, hey, you know, they can't read cursive.

Speaker C:

That's an issue.

Speaker C:

But then the.

Speaker C:

The practical, reasonable part of me goes, yeah, man, because we're really going from a.

Speaker C:

We'll really kind of move from a society where people write things anyway, because so it might.

Speaker C:

Hey, I can get that.

Speaker C:

We've seen a clip where people don't know how to, you know, tell time with an analog clock.

Speaker C:

And I'm just like, nah, man, I can't ride with you on that.

Speaker C:

I can't ride with you on, like, hey, everything's digital now.

Speaker C:

So now nobody needs to learn how to read analog clock.

Speaker D:

We.

Speaker C:

We've had Clips up here where people don't know a decade is ten years and the century is a hundred twelve.

Speaker C:

So, so, so, so it's like.

Speaker C:

And the thing is, all of these things I'm saying to our generation sounds like, oh, this is just basic information.

Speaker C:

But them, they're like, why would I ever need to know that?

Speaker C:

Because.

Speaker C:

And I'm like, yes, we've managed to breed and raise a generation that can be successfully stupid.

Speaker A:

Oh, don't forget the new math once.

Speaker C:

I'm not even going to go to the new math because here I'm not.

Speaker C:

If they do the new math math, I'm actually like, hey, I don't understand that.

Speaker C:

But hey, they're getting to the right answer and they're having to do.

Speaker C:

They haven't do work.

Speaker C:

But the truth of the matter is most, there are a lot of people my daughter's age that can't do basic timetables with single digit numbers because they've never had to.

Speaker C:

They have calculators, they have their phone.

Speaker C:

Or like, I don't need to know what 9 times 7 is.

Speaker C:

I can just plug it in and out ask.

Speaker C:

We, we, we've created an environment for the youth to be stupid and still be able to succeed somehow.

Speaker C:

Because hell, they're looking at people who can be influencers and reaction people on YouTube like, it's just content creators in general.

Speaker C:

Like, nothing about the majority of what my daughter's generation thinks of as like success has anything to do with intellect.

Speaker C:

And don't get me wrong, we had, my generation had rappers and basketball and football players, but we also didn't shit on doctors.

Speaker C:

We also didn't like, hey, think like being an engineer was lame, you know,.

Speaker A:

So we kind of did though.

Speaker C:

We thought it was lame, but we also respected it as, hey, this is a good money hustle.

Speaker C:

Like that got money.

Speaker B:

Yeah, true.

Speaker C:

Don't even look at it that way.

Speaker B:

True, true.

Speaker C:

They're like, oh, this out here doing work for money,.

Speaker A:

Bro.

Speaker C:

You could.

Speaker C:

I'm not trying to do no work, bro.

Speaker C:

I'm just gonna log everything I do on the world wide web and have people subscribe to my channel.

Speaker C:

And if I get a whole bunch of likes, I can make money, man.

Speaker C:

Once again, you're right.

Speaker C:

We thought some of the professions were lame, but we also thought of them as, as, hey, that's success though.

Speaker C:

Like you might think like, hey, being that doctor might be lame, but we didn't think he was broke.

Speaker C:

That money he making sure ain't lame.

Speaker C:

But now and, and then we got all These broke people.

Speaker C:

This is successfully stupid.

Speaker C:

We got all these broke people that have no concept of, like, what not being broke is.

Speaker C:

So they assume, like, people who aren't broke are broke because they're not as good at lying about not being broke as the people that they celebrate.

Speaker C:

You know, talking about, like, oh, this only make $90,000.

Speaker C:

Yeah, I can't be with no broke.

Speaker C:

You make less than 15,000 a year.

Speaker A:

You work at Wendy's.

Speaker A:

What the.

Speaker A:

Like, what we doing?

Speaker C:

Like, yo, I'm not.

Speaker C:

Look, I get it economy and everything.

Speaker C:

$90,000 Ain't balling like it used to be.

Speaker C:

But most people, like, we look at 9,000, be like, hey, you can live off 90.

Speaker C:

Like, if you can't live off 90, that's kind of a you problem.

Speaker C:

Unless you live in, like, New York City or la, where, you know, I can.

Speaker C:

I can ride with you on there.

Speaker C:

Like, hey, you.

Speaker C:

You are successfully broke.

Speaker C:

If you only make 90,000 in New York City just because the cost of living and everything.

Speaker A:

But, like, oh, yeah, yeah.

Speaker C:

90% Of the country, you make 90,000, you should be all right, bro.

Speaker C:

You got stupid people, people who don't know a decade is 10 years saying, I can't with no broke and celebrating songs like, where all my scamming ass at?

Speaker C:

They're in jail.

Speaker C:

That's where they at.

Speaker C:

Or.

Speaker C:

Or if they not, they scamming you.

Speaker A:

Ah, yeah, man.

Speaker B:

San Francisco 49ers.

Speaker B:

And once I bought that, dude.

Speaker A:

Yo, can I.

Speaker A:

Can I give a shout out?

Speaker A:

Normally, I don't do this because they ain't paying us, but that new progressive commercial with the influencer, and they're trying to understand what the he doing, that might be one of the greatest commercials ever.

Speaker A:

And I think that really just so you make hats.

Speaker C:

No, I'm just unboxing it.

Speaker C:

People watch you.

Speaker C:

You must be really good at reacting.

Speaker B:

Oh, you didn't see the one, y'.

Speaker A:

All.

Speaker B:

I thought y' all was talking about the new one.

Speaker B:

I saw where the woman is doing the influencer thing on the progressive commercial.

Speaker C:

Oh, yeah.

Speaker B:

Don't you have that?

Speaker B:

He said, I'm a. I'm a mom influencer.

Speaker C:

She's the dry one that's always, like, easy, lame.

Speaker C:

But as soon as she clicks them on, she's, like, super hyper.

Speaker B:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker A:

She ain't got no kids.

Speaker B:

Yeah, that's like me.

Speaker B:

He said, because lady was like, well, don't you have to have a child for that?

Speaker B:

She's like, nah, I'm just.

Speaker A:

I guess not.

Speaker B:

I'm like, what but it's satire because it's real.

Speaker B:

So I'm just saying.

Speaker A:

Ah, hilarious.

Speaker C:

Like, yo, my daughter, well, my daughter Kira was like 4.

Speaker C:

She would get on the phone or my wife would have the phone up and be recording her.

Speaker C:

And Kira, who knew nothing about, you know, anything at 4, you know how she would end every video like, or subscribe.

Speaker C:

Like, or subscribe.

Speaker C:

Because she couldn't even say it.

Speaker C:

I'm like, you got no channel.

Speaker C:

Right?

Speaker C:

But, but she, she knew what an influencer was.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Shit's crazy.

Speaker A:

Shit's crazy.

Speaker A:

Awesome.

Speaker A:

Did you have any other bad ones?

Speaker C:

I mean, that was just all one.

Speaker C:

Like, yo, man, we, we bred a generation where they can be, they're, they're celebrated to be stupid.

Speaker C:

Like, look, man, we can say what we want about my generation generation and Yalls generation.

Speaker C:

Like, we wouldn't celebrate stupid.

Speaker B:

We did.

Speaker B:

We had a lot of fun talking about it though.

Speaker B:

Thank you.

Speaker C:

We joked about it and there was plenty of stupid around.

Speaker B:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

Because stupid ain't going nowhere.

Speaker A:

You read about that.

Speaker B:

Because the goal wasn't to be in special ed, I promise.

Speaker C:

But we didn't celebrate stupidity.

Speaker C:

Like, yeah, I watched a clip today.

Speaker C:

It was this, it was this lady and she said, said when I graduated high school, I was 23 years old.

Speaker C:

And the guy was like, what?

Speaker C:

He was like, Yeah, I was 23 old.

Speaker C:

And she said I had a 0.7 GPA.

Speaker C:

And she said, I wish I had my transcript so I could show you.

Speaker C:

And he was like, how you graduate with a 0.7.

Speaker C:

I lied to you.

Speaker C:

Not.

Speaker C:

This is what she said.

Speaker C:

Because I outsmarted the system.

Speaker C:

That was her response.

Speaker C:

Bitch, you were 23 when you graduated.

Speaker C:

I don't think you outsmarted harder.

Speaker A:

They just said, get the out of high school.

Speaker C:

Basically.

Speaker C:

Basically they made some, some type of rule where you couldn't be there no more.

Speaker C:

They was like, we gotta get rid of you.

Speaker B:

You, you, you.

Speaker B:

You were one of the only people in America to exercise this.

Speaker B:

You've been here long enough, you're good.

Speaker A:

I go.

Speaker C:

Her gpo, GPA was even a skunk rule.

Speaker C:

Cuz you playing a game.

Speaker C:

Sixteen, somebody go up seven nothing.

Speaker C:

Hey, that's skunk, man.

Speaker C:

We next, next team, next game.

Speaker C:

We ain't about to do this, so.

Speaker B:

Wow.

Speaker B:

And again, that's what I was saying.

Speaker C:

Straight face to ag.

Speaker C:

She said I outsmarted the system.

Speaker C:

You ain't outsmart.

Speaker C:

First of all,.

Speaker B:

It took you five more years to pass.

Speaker B:

Basic stuff.

Speaker B:

Okay?

Speaker C:

No, she never passed.

Speaker C:

You got a 0.7 GPO.

Speaker B:

I keep thinking the graduation means you passed eventually.

Speaker B:

You've never even.

Speaker A:

That she passed.

Speaker A:

She passed, Jim.

Speaker B:

Did she though?

Speaker A:

What a D?

Speaker A:

She had to get some points.

Speaker A:

.:

Speaker A:

I mean, you got a D somewhere.

Speaker B:

But you know, I'm not willing to make a whole generation of few people, though.

Speaker A:

But you know what?

Speaker C:

I'd like to respond to this comment.

Speaker C:

I'm saying, I guess this is.

Speaker C:

We didn't celebrate stupid.

Speaker C:

We celebrate jackass.

Speaker C:

And we ain't celebrate.

Speaker C:

We laughed at it, but it was.

Speaker B:

A whole TV show when there were younger kids watching this.

Speaker B:

And to them,.

Speaker C:

Here's the thing.

Speaker C:

We were.

Speaker C:

It's.

Speaker C:

It's just like the, the North Carolina thing.

Speaker C:

I was saying we were saying the same thing, but we weren't saying it for different reasons.

Speaker C:

Like, Reuben watches that because he said he's admitted I can't turn away from a train wreck.

Speaker A:

Well, I don't watch six years pregnant.

Speaker C:

No, I'm just saying.

Speaker C:

But in, in general, you watch stuff like that.

Speaker C:

I can't turn away from a train train wreck.

Speaker C:

So we were looking at it and going, this is crazy.

Speaker C:

I don't believe these.

Speaker C:

And you're right, there were some people out there that was like, this is crazy.

Speaker C:

I don't believe these can get away with this.

Speaker B:

And now you have ratings.

Speaker B:

Once somebody says that you have ratings because you, like Reuben, you can't turn away.

Speaker C:

But once again, I don't know if that was us celebrating it.

Speaker C:

We weren't celebrating.

Speaker C:

But once again, there was somebody who.

Speaker B:

Was a whole lot of somebody.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I think it was more.

Speaker B:

I think it was more.

Speaker A:

I think it was more.

Speaker A:

You watched it because you couldn't believe what the.

Speaker A:

You were watching once again.

Speaker C:

But that's what stupidity has always been.

Speaker C:

Just like I said, stupidity ain't going to where we joked about it.

Speaker C:

We.

Speaker C:

We call people short bus shorties and all that.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

But we weren't aspiring to be that.

Speaker C:

Yeah, like all these AG is absolutely right.

Speaker C:

There was some young generation out there that was like, yo, I can be famous.

Speaker B:

There it is.

Speaker C:

That's all they would see.

Speaker C:

I can be famous.

Speaker C:

And they didn't realize we weren't really making them famous because it was good.

Speaker C:

But then it is good bad publicity because now it's all about likes.

Speaker C:

It's all about likes and subscribes.

Speaker C:

And people don't like everything they like.

Speaker C:

Sometimes people like what they hate.

Speaker A:

I mean, that's what.

Speaker A:

And that's the thing about parents and kids, man.

Speaker A:

Parents.

Speaker A:

Parents are stupid.

Speaker A:

Parents are up their stupid kids.

Speaker A:

Because, look, man, I can watch videos on Instagram of kids doing dumb to themselves all day, but somebody's got to record that.

Speaker A:

And it's just, yeah, like the kid.

Speaker A:

Like, kids who hit themselves in the nuts.

Speaker A:

I'm like, nobody ever told you should not hit yourself in the nuts.

Speaker A:

Like, what kind of father.

Speaker C:

Can we put a preference on that?

Speaker C:

You mean the white kids you see hitting themselves?

Speaker A:

Oh, definitely the white kid.

Speaker C:

I'm just saying, bro, because, like,.

Speaker B:

I'm.

Speaker C:

Saying maybe this is the racist part of me, but if I saw a clip with some black kids doing that, I would be angry.

Speaker C:

I'd be like, hey, I would be more moved to anger than when I see a.

Speaker C:

When I see a white kid doing it.

Speaker C:

I'm just like, oh, white people.

Speaker C:

Not my business.

Speaker C:

But I see black.

Speaker C:

I'm like, hey, man, where the.

Speaker C:

Your parents.

Speaker B:

And the adults holding the video camera, like, what the.

Speaker A:

Like, yo, man, it's.

Speaker A:

It's.

Speaker A:

Yo, I'm telling you, man.

Speaker A:

I watch that and I laugh because.

Speaker C:

We just all tribal.

Speaker C:

Because I'm.

Speaker C:

I'm sure white people look at some young black people doing things, and they just like, hey, we.

Speaker C:

We don't mind seeing them do it, but we see our own doing it.

Speaker C:

You know, it's kind of like the Eminem effect, man.

Speaker C:

You know, white.

Speaker C:

You know who hated Eminem the most?

Speaker C:

Some of these white people.

Speaker C:

These white parents is like, hey, man,.

Speaker B:

I mean, he's good with them now.

Speaker C:

Exactly.

Speaker C:

But.

Speaker C:

But.

Speaker C:

But then they were like, hey, man, we're cool with these out here doing this, but not.

Speaker B:

Not you.

Speaker C:

Not you.

Speaker A:

Moby's words, man.

Speaker A:

His words get us canceled every day, but we still keep going.

Speaker A:

It's beautiful.

Speaker A:

Oh, yeah, man.

Speaker A:

But yeah, man.

Speaker A:

So, all right, we.

Speaker A:

We've on them enough.

Speaker A:

So.

Speaker B:

Are you sure?

Speaker A:

I mean, look, I can do this for another half hour, but we got time limits.

Speaker C:

All that does is make us old men, because every old generation can.

Speaker C:

On the younger generation.

Speaker C:

Tradition.

Speaker B:

That's exactly what I was saying.

Speaker C:

That is proof concept that you were getting old.

Speaker C:

Because I promise you, 20 years ago, I didn't have as much ammunition for people younger than me because I was.

Speaker C:

I was part of it, man.

Speaker A:

I don't know.

Speaker A:

Like, we built like three years of this show on dumb people.

Speaker C:

Once again, the same.

Speaker C:

The same reason they should.

Speaker C:

Look, we didn't celebrate stupid.

Speaker C:

We laughed at it.

Speaker C:

Yeah, we didn't celebrate.

Speaker A:

Yeah, we.

Speaker A:

We.

Speaker A:

Because we talked we talked about a lot of dumb on this.

Speaker C:

We weren't laughing with them.

Speaker C:

That's the thing.

Speaker C:

Everybody was laughing, laughing, but we weren't laughing with them.

Speaker A:

Oh, hell no.

Speaker A:

We were just like, y' all dumb as like, what is wrong with you?

Speaker C:

Like, when we see them clips when they be asking basic ass questions and the dude be kind of laughing, he ain't laughing with him.

Speaker C:

He laughing at him.

Speaker C:

But they don't know because they dumb.

Speaker B:

K Bianca, did I miss 12?

Speaker A:

Did I miss 12?

Speaker B:

It makes me proud that we came up, we.

Speaker B:

We saw.

Speaker B:

We posted something on this show and talked about it that was so poignant that somebody comes around four years later, later it says, did I miss 12?

Speaker B:

I thought it was just me every time.

Speaker B:

Cuz did you see what most.

Speaker B:

Did most send you that thing?

Speaker B:

He had to.

Speaker B:

Cuz he said, put it on Discord, where the dude was asking about, name, name a letter other than a vow.

Speaker B:

And the woman was like, what's a vow?

Speaker B:

I was like, did she just say that?

Speaker C:

And.

Speaker C:

And then.

Speaker C:

And then one girl was like, hey,.

Speaker B:

Yeah, that was the same girl.

Speaker B:

Because she was upset that she's like a letter.

Speaker C:

Name, name.

Speaker C:

What's a letter?

Speaker C:

That's not a vowel.

Speaker C:

What's it called?

Speaker C:

And she said a.

Speaker C:

My response would have been like, hey, what?

Speaker C:

Because I don't want her to be stupid.

Speaker A:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

So I'm like, I want to give her the chance to finish it like a.

Speaker C:

Just come on, come on, say it with me.

Speaker B:

You think she understands what a consonant is?

Speaker C:

No, I don't, but I want her to ag.

Speaker C:

Once again, I don't celebrate stupid.

Speaker C:

I don't.

Speaker C:

It don't make me feel good when I see somebody stupid.

Speaker C:

I get that you can laugh at it, but it truly doesn't make me feel good because I tell people all the time, like, hey, man, you can say a lot of about me that I won't even fight you about.

Speaker C:

Calling me stupid is the one thing.

Speaker C:

I'm just like, hey, hold on, buddy.

Speaker C:

I am a lot of.

Speaker C:

I have done dumb stuff.

Speaker C:

I can admit that I've done stupid.

Speaker C:

But what I am not is stupid.

Speaker B:

Walking up the wrong tree, pal.

Speaker B:

He said, wait a minute, buddy.

Speaker B:

That was hilarious.

Speaker B:

No, I don't know, man.

Speaker B:

Like I said, it's just like, I hate to use singular examples for an entire community, but it's.

Speaker B:

Sometimes it does.

Speaker B:

Sometimes it does fit.

Speaker C:

There's just so many.

Speaker C:

It's not one singular thing.

Speaker C:

We're just saying singular things.

Speaker B:

Is it so many.

Speaker B:

Or is it that we have access to more people because of social media?

Speaker B:

Because I don't feel like it's more.

Speaker B:

I feel like we have more access.

Speaker D:

You're.

Speaker C:

Once again.

Speaker C:

I. I started by saying stupid's always been here because stupid ain't gold nowhere.

Speaker C:

You're right.

Speaker C:

It was always here.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Stupid web.

Speaker C:

Like we.

Speaker C:

We all went to school with people who were not very smart could.

Speaker B:

Okay, let me ask y' all a question.

Speaker B:

With the knowledge that you have now in the opinions that you have about life at this point, could you go back to high school and survive for a day day like this?

Speaker A:

High school.

Speaker B:

Any high school.

Speaker A:

Oh, yeah, cuz I was feeling this way in high school.

Speaker B:

Okay, There are stupid people in high school, cuz I never thought that.

Speaker B:

But know, knowing what I know now and going back to what these kids are doing now, I would be through.

Speaker B:

I would be like, what did you just say?

Speaker A:

Look, man, like, I've been feeling this way for a very long time in my life.

Speaker B:

He's still thinking about it.

Speaker B:

He's still thinking about.

Speaker B:

He's still thinking about it.

Speaker C:

Hey, look, look.

Speaker C:

You feel the same way, man.

Speaker A:

You feel the same way?

Speaker C:

No, no, I Actually, Ruben, I'm.

Speaker C:

I'm a say, I think I could, I think, but the perception of who I am would be so different from this generation than mine.

Speaker C:

Like, I'm not saying I was the cool kid in high school, but I was pretty, pretty popularly accepted.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

Like, you know, I. I don't think a whole bunch of people thought I was a. I don't think a whole bunch of people thought I was lame.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

I was pretty, pretty accepted because of the way I moved.

Speaker C:

But the way I move today would be frowned upon because I moved.

Speaker C:

It's kind of weird to say it, but like, I move with respect and, and not just like a.

Speaker C:

A respect your elders type way.

Speaker C:

I moved with a respect that was required to exist in a world where somebody might punch you in the face.

Speaker C:

And these kids don't live in that world.

Speaker C:

So, yes, nobody's scared of being punched in the face.

Speaker C:

Everybody.

Speaker C:

Because the schools protect bullies.

Speaker A:

That's fair.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker C:

And nobody can fight because the people who are willing to do, they scared to get their ass whooped.

Speaker C:

So they, they're just willing to bring a gun around.

Speaker C:

So nobody moves with the respectful tone that is required in a world that exists in which, you know, I could say something that a might punch me.

Speaker B:

In the face for Saying if you.

Speaker C:

Listen to our kids talk now, they talk with no fear of somebody slapping.

Speaker B:

The out of them because ain't nobody gonna do it.

Speaker A:

And.

Speaker C:

And that's an.

Speaker A:

Like.

Speaker C:

I'm not.

Speaker C:

I am not advocating for child abuse.

Speaker C:

I'm not.

Speaker C:

What I'm advocating for is smacking the out of somebody who brings disrespect towards you.

Speaker C:

Because disrespect at any level should never be tolerated.

Speaker C:

If he's tolerated now, it's gonna get worse later.

Speaker A:

I agree.

Speaker C:

So I don't think I can survive.

Speaker C:

I like it.

Speaker C:

I would.

Speaker C:

I could survive today, Ag.

Speaker C:

But there'd be a lot of people who would think I was a or like.

Speaker C:

Or I would get kicked out.

Speaker C:

Because there's only so many times you throw these words out before I gotta punch you in the face.

Speaker B:

That part you be counting the moments, man.

Speaker C:

I. I was the dude that.

Speaker C:

I didn't get fights in school for real, because, like, I move cool, respectful.

Speaker C:

I ain't really have a lot of enemies.

Speaker C:

I ain't make no beef like that.

Speaker C:

But, I mean, I was a fairly large guy, and people understood, hey, man, there's things that can happen or be said in which the result could be a consequence of this hitting me.

Speaker B:

Wait a minute.

Speaker B:

Wait a minute.

Speaker B:

Can I ask y' all another question?

Speaker B:

Do black people use real big words when they talk?

Speaker B:

Start talking about fighting?

Speaker A:

Yes.

Speaker A:

But you're not the first.

Speaker C:

People.

Speaker A:

Black people become very intelligent.

Speaker B:

Oh, man.

Speaker B:

They explain, make sure you understand the contract.

Speaker A:

Yeah, they're trying to make sure you understand.

Speaker C:

Not even about that, Reuben.

Speaker C:

I'm going to tell you subconsciously why I do it, because I know the perception of a large black guy getting violent automatically gets the savage unintelligent.

Speaker C:

So I'm just like, hey, I'm going to tell you.

Speaker C:

I'm going to explain to you that there's some intellect involved in this ass whooping.

Speaker C:

You might be about to.

Speaker A:

Yeah, definitely.

Speaker C:

I. I have considered all the ramifications of my actions going forward.

Speaker B:

Ramifications.

Speaker A:

And also I just want to make.

Speaker C:

Sure that you are aware of the consequences that exist with you living dangerously like this and saying this reckless shit.

Speaker C:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

I also think what it does, it gives the person that you about to whoop their ass a chance to really think about, is this really what I want to do today?

Speaker B:

But we're talking about people that don't.

Speaker B:

Don't understand consequences, though, so they'll never think that through like that.

Speaker C:

You're right, Ag.

Speaker C:

But in a world in which people use slang and talking broken English all the time.

Speaker B:

Time.

Speaker C:

As soon as the starts actually using words with three, you know, three syllables, it does get your attention.

Speaker C:

Even, even if I'm not sure that they're aware of what I'm saying because they might not understand the words.

Speaker C:

It might be a thing where they think it's disrespectful just because they don't understand it.

Speaker C:

But either way, it does get your attention.

Speaker B:

We are killing these kids.

Speaker A:

Look, man, all I'm saying is this.

Speaker A:

You know, I almost got in one fight in school and that didn't happen because we both decided they want to move.

Speaker A:

But man, your life changes, man.

Speaker A:

You think about fighting in school, when you see one girl beat up four small girls and send chicks through the air, it makes you think, do I really want to be any of those people right now?

Speaker A:

Knowing full well, like at my height, and I mean I was, I mean I was 175 pounds, but bro, I was like 5 foot 4.

Speaker A:

There's no fight that I'm gonna win in my high school.

Speaker A:

And then once you see the a big girl just throw all these little girls around, I mean, you start thinking, yo, man, how many people in this school do you think you can actually physically beat?

Speaker A:

And that number shrank very low, man, this.

Speaker A:

And like Mo B said, man, look, people knew who I was, but I moved so I didn't have to, like, I didn't, I didn't have enemies and like that.

Speaker A:

Like.

Speaker A:

But I, I, I will go back to the question I was asked, but I think the problem that I would have going back now is now I talk too much.

Speaker A:

I would probably get my ass beat more in high school because I don't.

Speaker C:

Know, man, I think you would fit more in now.

Speaker B:

He's not wrong.

Speaker C:

I think you would fit in more now because that's.

Speaker C:

Yo, look, as somebody who's coached like middle school and high school age kids and I'm around them and social athletes said that's all these know how to do is talk.

Speaker C:

I'm, I'm hearing them talking.

Speaker C:

I'm just thinking, yo, man, 25, 30 years ago, I'd have to break up a fight right now.

Speaker C:

It wouldn't.

Speaker C:

That these, these words would have had too many negative outcomes immediately.

Speaker C:

Yeah, it's why, it's like why I tell you, I don't like, I ain't like playing basketball with younger people, man, because they, they didn't understand trash talking etiquette.

Speaker C:

Like, yo, trash talking etiquette is me and you.

Speaker C:

It's like hey, your game week, you play defense like a, like you want all these things, but when you start bringing in outside sources into your.

Speaker C:

We, we can't do this no more.

Speaker C:

Because now we, we have, we have raised the level of intensity to something that basketball can't fulfill.

Speaker C:

After, after so many.

Speaker C:

Your mama's a type.

Speaker C:

Yeah, like there's only, like, there's only like room in one for the chamber.

Speaker C:

Like, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

Like, because now every time you say.

Speaker A:

You playing Russian roulette, I mean, 100.

Speaker A:

Like, I just, I never.

Speaker A:

And which is interesting because like, I never understood like in sports.

Speaker A:

Well, and kids, you know what kids are playing.

Speaker A:

Adults are different.

Speaker A:

Especially.

Speaker A:

Cuz I'm pretty sure on the NFL football field they say just crash, but.

Speaker C:

Whatever, you know, on NFL, I don't know, man.

Speaker C:

Cuz at this point in time, too many of them are rich.

Speaker C:

So that trash talk is probably different, cuz you can tell by the way they be dapping each other up after the game.

Speaker C:

Ain't too much animosity stuff being said.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I mean, you know, they probably say like, yeah, man, your wife was at my crib last night when I came to visit, you know, or some like that.

Speaker C:

That's, that's, that's, that's.

Speaker C:

That's a step too far.

Speaker A:

I don't.

Speaker A:

But I'm just saying.

Speaker A:

It depends who they know.

Speaker A:

I'm just saying.

Speaker A:

But yeah, like back in the day.

Speaker A:

Yeah, man, you can't, you can't talk about nobody's mama on a.

Speaker A:

In a sport.

Speaker A:

Event.

Speaker A:

Yeah, somebody's getting ejected or beat up or both, because that ain't happening.

Speaker A:

But now you're right, these kids are reckless.

Speaker A:

You know, I mean, look, man, I can count on one hand how many times I've been told that my mama's a.

Speaker A:

And.

Speaker A:

And didn't happen on one hand these days, man, every time you turn around, somebody mama's a.

Speaker C:

And not only that, man, like, they just don't like, yo, the, the level of disrespect with, with no consequence.

Speaker C:

Like, I'll give an example, man.

Speaker C:

I, I was coaching a player and he had gotten a fight at school.

Speaker C:

So automatically the responsible adult thing is for me to be like, hey, bro, you can't be doing that, man.

Speaker C:

You, you, you know, you costing the team yourself and all this.

Speaker C:

But that's not how I think originally because.

Speaker C:

Because there's still a part of me that's like, hey man, I just want to know if this was warranted, first of all.

Speaker C:

And I know that's not the adult thing.

Speaker C:

What do you do?

Speaker C:

I'm supposed to be like, violence isn't the answer.

Speaker C:

But sometimes I'm just like, it might not have been the answer, but was it the proper solution for this, you know, problem?

Speaker C:

Like, you know, I just need to know.

Speaker C:

So he explained to me what happened, and he was like, yo, the kid been messing with me for a long time.

Speaker C:

Blah, blah, blah.

Speaker C:

I'm thinking, all right, you giving me the same.

Speaker C:

Same typical teenage jargon.

Speaker C:

Hey, man, you got to control yourself.

Speaker C:

And then he was like, yeah, man.

Speaker C:

So he smacked my girlfriend on the booty and said, I ain't gonna do.

Speaker C:

So I started hitting him until my arms got tired, and I was just like.

Speaker C:

In my head, I'm thinking, that seems like an adequate response to me.

Speaker C:

I like it.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

I'm like, hey, man.

Speaker C:

Like, I couldn't even be mad at him.

Speaker C:

I'm just like.

Speaker C:

I mean, you could hit him once.

Speaker A:

Or twice, maybe three times, but no.

Speaker A:

Until your arms got tired.

Speaker A:

That might be.

Speaker C:

I probably said the worst adult answer you can give in that moment, which.

Speaker A:

Was like, I gave.

Speaker C:

I gave him, like, legal advice.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

I was just.

Speaker C:

I was just like, well, did he stop moving?

Speaker C:

And he was like, yeah.

Speaker C:

And I was like, all right, going forward.

Speaker B:

You going forward.

Speaker C:

And he stops moving.

Speaker B:

You got to stop him.

Speaker C:

Them.

Speaker C:

Because that's involuntary manslaughter, my boy.

Speaker B:

Look, man, what he said going forward.

Speaker A:

But, you know, Mo B's not wrong, man, because, you know, hey, man, because.

Speaker C:

In my head, I'm like.

Speaker C:

I'm like, hey, man, you're right.

Speaker C:

Certain disrespect can't be tolerated.

Speaker C:

In my head, I'm like, that.

Speaker C:

That can't be tolerated.

Speaker A:

Right.

Speaker A:

Well, here's the other thing, man.

Speaker A:

And what we have it.

Speaker A:

We have.

Speaker A:

We probably won't get to it today, but it's worth getting to.

Speaker A:

If that kid is a.

Speaker A:

Their parents are probably bitches.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Maybe the possibility is higher than normal because kids are kid.

Speaker A:

That's a learned thing, man.

Speaker A:

You know, you like real talk.

Speaker A:

I learned.

Speaker A:

I didn't.

Speaker A:

I learned that if I do in school.

Speaker A:

School, I'm gonna get my ass when I get home.

Speaker A:

You know what I didn't do in school?

Speaker A:

Stupid.

Speaker B:

Like, I mean, this is that simple.

Speaker A:

I learned cause and effect.

Speaker C:

It's also gentle, like, you know, because there's just so many.

Speaker C:

So many things you can and can't do anymore as a parent legally.

Speaker C:

And I'm not Saying that's bad because I understand, understand you know, the whole idea of child abuse.

Speaker C:

Like, because some people don't really know the difference between spanking your child, whooping they ass.

Speaker C:

Like there's, there's a distinct difference.

Speaker C:

And some, and some people don't know where that line is.

Speaker C:

So I get it.

Speaker C:

Because people don't know where that line is.

Speaker C:

You kind of got to regulate it all out.

Speaker C:

But yeah, and kids know that they're negative consequences too, to their parent disciplining them.

Speaker C:

So it's like, like, I mean, there's so many factors.

Speaker A:

Like I, I get.

Speaker C:

The easiest thing is like, man, are these parents just letting kids get away with anything?

Speaker C:

And I'm just like, yeah, that's part of the reason.

Speaker C:

But that ain't the whole story.

Speaker C:

The whole story.

Speaker C:

But I think sometimes it is the whole story.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I think that's because sometimes our legal system, the people who run our legal system also are a bunch of bitches.

Speaker C:

No, it's just reactionary.

Speaker C:

Everything's reactionary.

Speaker C:

Same thing I said about like rules and schools are there to protect the bullies.

Speaker C:

And people go, what are you talking about?

Speaker C:

The schools are trying to get rid of bully.

Speaker C:

And I'm like, yeah, but because of their overreaction, you protect bullies because bullies know nobody can punch them in the face.

Speaker C:

And I say it like that, with emphasis because that's what needs to happen.

Speaker C:

Once again, I told you the difference between bullies and our generation and bullies in this generation.

Speaker C:

Generation.

Speaker C:

Bullies in our generation had to know how to fight because at some point in time, somebody was going to call you on it.

Speaker C:

Somebody was going to test it.

Speaker C:

In this generation, you can go your whole life being a bully and never throw a punch.

Speaker C:

In fact, you're waiting for somebody to throw a punch on you because that's the way you can kind of bully them because you know they going to get in trouble for it.

Speaker C:

And if you bullying, you probably don't give a.

Speaker C:

About being in trouble or you have mastered the art of doing things that are up but can't get you in trouble.

Speaker A:

Well, it's just like that.

Speaker A:

It's just like, just like the NFL, man.

Speaker A:

It's always the second person that gets caught.

Speaker B:

Not wrong.

Speaker A:

Not wrong.

Speaker A:

You know, because hey, man, if you.

Speaker A:

I saw it today, man.

Speaker A:

A guy got pushed because the other day did some.

Speaker A:

But the refs is all the push and it was a foul.

Speaker A:

And I was just like, man, we got way too much instant replay for, for like that to continue to get away people to get away with that, man.

Speaker A:

I, I think anything like that we should be able to rewind and be like, how did we get here?

Speaker A:

You know?

Speaker A:

Because once again the bully, the bully was, well, not even a bully.

Speaker A:

The player did some foul shit and the other dude reacted and that dude got a pillow it.

Speaker A:

But through all this instant replay, we can't go back and check to see why he did that.

Speaker C:

Because also in football they've regular, they've regulated like retribution plays.

Speaker C:

And what I mean by that is like when I played football like 3,000 years ago, it feels like when I look at the rules now, like there were certain things that we could do do that actually helped me from not reacting negatively.

Speaker C:

Somebody do some dirty stuff to me.

Speaker C:

I'm thinking, I'm gonna see you later on this game, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

It's gonna be a play on the other side of the field.

Speaker C:

That ain't got to do with either one of us.

Speaker C:

You're gonna be looking at the play and I'm gonna get a 30 yard head start and I'm gonna murder you on this hit and everybody's gonna cheer.

Speaker C:

But now you do that, it's a penalty.

Speaker C:

And I'm just like, wait a minute.

Speaker A:

That.

Speaker C:

But he just blocked him.

Speaker C:

Yeah, but he's nowhere near the play.

Speaker C:

So it's unnecessary block.

Speaker C:

There was no such thing as unnecessary block.

Speaker C:

The place 30 yards away from me right now if you standing there.

Speaker C:

That's why they say keep ahead of the swivel.

Speaker C:

You gotta be, you gotta know your surroundings.

Speaker C:

Like because I was gonna catch a slipping.

Speaker C:

That was, that was my mission.

Speaker C:

Somebody did something dirty to me in the game.

Speaker C:

I was.

Speaker C:

And I'm a nice guy, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

I wasn't the person that wanted to it do do this.

Speaker C:

But like, hey, I found out in football I could always get my get back so I didn't have to break the rule.

Speaker C:

I ain't never get no unsportsman like penalty.

Speaker C:

I ain't never getting no pushing and jostling match in the game.

Speaker C:

Never.

Speaker C:

Somebody do something to me.

Speaker C:

Hands was up.

Speaker C:

I laughed a lot because I was just thinking, I'm just trying to figure out what number you are, figure out where you are.

Speaker C:

I' ma find you.

Speaker C:

You can't do that no more.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

That now you get called a dirty player for stuff like that.

Speaker C:

That because some of the stuff people get called a dirty player for, I'm like, I must have been a dirty Player.

Speaker C:

And I, I never looked at myself as a dirty player, but I mean, in today's game, I'm a dirty player.

Speaker C:

You hit a quarterback, you get a penalty for landing on them.

Speaker C:

We were taught to do that.

Speaker C:

If my 300 pound ass would have hit somebody and tried to roll to the side so he hit the ground, I would have never gotten the game again.

Speaker C:

My couscous.

Speaker C:

What the was that?

Speaker C:

You're supposed to take him through the ground.

Speaker B:

Wow.

Speaker B:

Through the ground.

Speaker A:

Well, just like in baseball, when you, when you hit somebody, you know what's happening next in it.

Speaker A:

So somebody's getting hit.

Speaker A:

Next thing you know, it's a brawl and getting tossed out.

Speaker C:

Baseball rules are stupid.

Speaker C:

I'm just saying the whole unwritten rules of baseball are the reason I can never take the game serious.

Speaker C:

Because I'm gonna let you know, man.

Speaker C:

So my picture hit your player?

Speaker C:

Maybe on accident, maybe for real.

Speaker C:

So two minutes later you gonna hit me?

Speaker C:

Who had to do with this?

Speaker C:

You gonna hit me with a ball 90 miles an hour and you think I'm just gonna draw the first base and we be cool?

Speaker C:

Nah, dog, you're right.

Speaker C:

I probably am going jog the first base because I'm retribution guy.

Speaker C:

I'm like, cool, I'm gonna go to first base.

Speaker C:

I know your goddamn locker room is.

Speaker C:

Is you will see me outside, bro.

Speaker C:

Like we going do this on the lights.

Speaker C:

You going to see me outside.

Speaker C:

And you know what?

Speaker C:

You had a baseball.

Speaker C:

I'm g. Have it back in the locker room.

Speaker C:

But hey, you used your weapon of choice.

Speaker C:

I'mma use my weapon of choice.

Speaker A:

Hey, man, that's.

Speaker C:

But I get it.

Speaker C:

Baseball can't do that because you know that's.

Speaker C:

That's wrong.

Speaker A:

Yeah, but I mean, that's why hockey exists, man.

Speaker A:

And you know, you.

Speaker C:

Hockey exist as one white people.

Speaker A:

Well, well, I'm just saying.

Speaker C:

Stop.

Speaker A:

No, hard stop, Ruben.

Speaker C:

Hard stop.

Speaker C:

Because if they ever allowed fighting in the NBA game like that, what does something.

Speaker C:

You can just start fighting.

Speaker C:

All y' all gotta do is go to the penalty box.

Speaker C:

Never let it happen.

Speaker C:

They never let it happen.

Speaker A:

When's the last time we saw a fight in the NBA?

Speaker C:

Like, once again, because these know it's up their money.

Speaker C:

It don't up the hockey players money.

Speaker A:

Yeah, well, it started to, because hockey players get paid now.

Speaker A:

They get paid decent money.

Speaker D:

Money.

Speaker C:

Okay.

Speaker C:

I mean, does it affect them getting a contract?

Speaker C:

No, they get called the enforcer of their team.

Speaker C:

Well, it gets celebrated for.

Speaker A:

Well, it depends.

Speaker A:

It depends who's doing.

Speaker C:

I get a fine yeah, they might get a fine from the league.

Speaker C:

You find somebody.

Speaker C:

20,000.

Speaker C:

That's making 3.2 million.

Speaker C:

What was me, don't get me wrong.

Speaker C:

20,000.

Speaker C:

Still 20,000.

Speaker C:

But his next contract, his team looks at him as an enforcer.

Speaker C:

We don't look at Draymond Green as an enforcer.

Speaker C:

Call him a dirty player.

Speaker A:

Oh, well.

Speaker C:

For doing nothing.

Speaker C:

No different than what hockey players do.

Speaker C:

Yeah, he kicks a in the nuts.

Speaker C:

Who cares?

Speaker C:

That hockey player swung a stick at a like, Yeah, I mean, like, come on, man,.

Speaker A:

I hear you all stop hockey.

Speaker C:

White people, everything, okay?

Speaker C:

They're just hard nos.

Speaker C:

They're competitive,.

Speaker A:

Play hockey now.

Speaker C:

Just saying, hold on.

Speaker C:

How many of these black people you see out there getting in fights all the time?

Speaker A:

Why would they.

Speaker A:

With the black guy?

Speaker A:

I don't ever see what I'm saying.

Speaker C:

Can't be black guy.

Speaker C:

Can't be the enforcer because the black guy becomes the enforcer.

Speaker C:

They getting rid of that because you know, you know what?

Speaker C:

They not gonna show.

Speaker C:

They're not gonna show a black guy whooping a white dude's ass on the ice hockey ring all the time.

Speaker C:

They're gonna be like, they're gonna regulate that out the gate game quick.

Speaker C:

Let two or three go out there and start whooping white dudes ass on a consistent basis.

Speaker C:

I. I bet you, I bet you they regulate that fighting shift.

Speaker C:

Maki.

Speaker C:

The black people you see up there, they're skilled people or they're defensive guys that don't get in a lot of people's trouble.

Speaker C:

They don't.

Speaker C:

They don't be doing no smoke, no smoke with them black guys.

Speaker C:

If you, if you put some real out there, and I don't say real, that's a bad thing.

Speaker C:

You put some members that just want to fight.

Speaker C:

Different statement.

Speaker C:

You put some that just want to fight out there because there are some white people out there that just want to fight.

Speaker C:

That is their role.

Speaker C:

You can't be black.

Speaker C:

That dude cannot be black.

Speaker C:

Because they would regulate that out of the game.

Speaker C:

They would make sure, Reuben, you get one week of satisfaction.

Speaker C:

They get one game, maybe two games.

Speaker C:

Next thing you know, all the fighting rules come out.

Speaker C:

Hey, bro, you can't be fighting period, point blank in the store.

Speaker C:

You fight, you get ejected and suspended for games, that all of a sudden the fight rules will change.

Speaker C:

But as long, as long as it's white guys with minimal amounts of teeth who ain't from this country for the majority of it, like, cool.

Speaker C:

Let them do this fight.

Speaker A:

Actually, now, I did hear the stat.

Speaker A:

The other day, like 20 of the players in the NHL are not American.

Speaker A:

So 80 are now.

Speaker A:

So that has changed significantly.

Speaker A:

That's, I just want to bring that up once again.

Speaker C:

But I bet the amount of black people are fighting in hockey ain't changed.

Speaker C:

It's, it's very, very small.

Speaker C:

And I bet when they did fight, he didn't start it.

Speaker C:

He was, he was, he was trying to protect himself.

Speaker C:

I could be wrong.

Speaker C:

I'm not a hockey viewer, but I have a very sneaking suspicion and there's some black dudes out there that was enforcers, that was whipping some out ass.

Speaker C:

This will change in a hurry.

Speaker B:

I still can't find a lie.

Speaker A:

I, I, I can't either.

Speaker B:

And now for commercial break.

Speaker A:

How you doing?

Speaker A:

This is Reuben from 5 Minute Warner and I just wanted to sit here and tell you about JTD Creations.

Speaker A:

They're the ones that made our shirts and even sweatshirt shirts.

Speaker A:

They're pretty dope.

Speaker A:

They can put your logo on anything.

Speaker A:

Shirts, jackets, hoodies, even hats.

Speaker A:

They also do Stanley's and all this other stuff.

Speaker A:

Anything you need a logo on, they can put it on.

Speaker A:

They can do it for one or two people or they could do it for a group.

Speaker A:

It's really up to you.

Speaker A:

Hit them up on JTD Creations on Facebook.

Speaker A:

Once again, that's who 5 Minute Warner uses for all of our apparel.

Speaker A:

And trust me, you will not be disappointed.

Speaker A:

Once again, hit up JTD Creations if you need a shirt or you need anything for yourself, a family member or your crew and let them know that Five Minute Warner sent you.

Speaker B:

Have a great one and back to the show.

Speaker A:

All right, so you know what?

Speaker A:

I think we've talked enough about this subject.

Speaker C:

We gotta give him something good, man.

Speaker C:

I know this is your preferred episode where it's all hate.

Speaker B:

That was funny.

Speaker A:

That was funny, but it was not the attention.

Speaker A:

All right, Angie, what do you like about this generation?

Speaker B:

I appreciate this generation bringing to light mental wellness.

Speaker B:

This, they have done a wonderful job at putting pressure on whatever administration, whatever, you know, a state level, federal level, and just making it a little bit more acceptable to take care of yourself.

Speaker B:

I don't remember a generation that did that.

Speaker B:

I know mine did because we were all about, you know, rub some dirt on and walk it off.

Speaker B:

Whatever it was was.

Speaker B:

That's why we have these broken people now.

Speaker B:

But this younger generation, Gen Z and before that, I appreciate that because, you know, sometimes, man, sometimes just need to slow it down and create a work life balance that.

Speaker B:

I didn't know you had a Work, life, balance.

Speaker B:

I thought your balance was whenever you got a day off, so.

Speaker B:

And I still feel that way.

Speaker B:

It doesn't make it the right way, you know, so for that alone, their value is high because they have brought to light and made people pay attention to the limits of humanity.

Speaker B:

You know, at some point you hit a ceiling once you tap your head, tap out, and that's okay.

Speaker B:

So for that, I appreciate him.

Speaker B:

So thank you for that, y'.

Speaker C:

All.

Speaker A:

Okay, Moby, I'm curious, Ruben.

Speaker C:

You made a face when he first announced.

Speaker C:

Initially said it, and I just want to know, what were you thinking initially?

Speaker C:

It sounds like you didn't agree with that, or it looks like you didn't agree with that.

Speaker C:

And I just.

Speaker C:

I'm just like, I just need to see where your head was at.

Speaker B:

Yeah, I'm curious now.

Speaker B:

So what did you think of what I said?

Speaker B:

Did you just.

Speaker B:

Do you disagree with it wholeheartedly or just you hated the fact that you.

Speaker B:

That these people have something good to offer?

Speaker A:

No, I don't disagree with that wholeheartedly.

Speaker A:

I just think it.

Speaker A:

I think the problem.

Speaker A:

My.

Speaker A:

My thoughts on it are, I feel like, one, it was necessary, but two, it's also been abused.

Speaker B:

Right.

Speaker B:

But that doesn't.

Speaker B:

That doesn't erase.

Speaker B:

I know it's been abused, but that's not my point.

Speaker B:

My point.

Speaker A:

I know, and I wasn't making the.

Speaker C:

Same argument people have towards affirmative action.

Speaker C:

Yeah, but I wasn't.

Speaker A:

I wasn't making a face at your comment.

Speaker A:

I was making a face more or less like, well, yeah, you know, it's good that, you know, we.

Speaker A:

That they have brought some attention to people's mental health.

Speaker A:

However, I do feel like that sometimes that is abused more often than not.

Speaker A:

And, you know, we just sat here talking about how these people are a whole bunch of bitches and stuff like.

Speaker A:

Like that.

Speaker A:

And I just think that.

Speaker A:

I think.

Speaker A:

Look, man, I. I think the truth was, yes, we had.

Speaker A:

We have a mental health problem in this country by far.

Speaker A:

However, you know what?

Speaker A:

I don't feel like going to work today.

Speaker A:

I'm gonna take a mental health day, and I'm gonna go do some.

Speaker A:

That I want to do.

Speaker A:

That's.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Up there, a.

Speaker A:

There's abuse.

Speaker A:

But, I mean, some.

Speaker C:

Some would argue that is the point of the mental health day.

Speaker A:

I understand that, but, you know, that's just my personal opinion.

Speaker A:

I mean, I. I think it.

Speaker A:

I think that.

Speaker A:

I think it just depends on what it.

Speaker A:

The overall use of it.

Speaker A:

That's all I'm saying.

Speaker B:

Okay.

Speaker A:

I mean, I'll be that guy.

Speaker A:

I don't have a problem with that.

Speaker A:

But.

Speaker A:

But yeah, I just think that.

Speaker A:

I think it's.

Speaker A:

I think it's good that is available.

Speaker A:

However, you know, I'm gonna take four out of five days of work as a mental health day a week.

Speaker A:

You know, just get a new job.

Speaker A:

Like, really.

Speaker A:

That's all I'm saying.

Speaker A:

Sorry for the face.

Speaker C:

I know.

Speaker C:

I was just.

Speaker C:

I wondering what your logic was.

Speaker C:

I mean, once again, you.

Speaker C:

You made the same argument that everybody makes towards everything that's supposed to help people.

Speaker C:

If you can point out one thing in which somebody might abuse it, then it's.

Speaker C:

It's a fraudulent thing because everybody could.

Speaker C:

Everybody abuses it.

Speaker A:

But I. I don't think it's fraudulent and I don't think a lot of.

Speaker A:

I don't think the world abuses it.

Speaker A:

I mean, it's just served some people and some people is not all the most.

Speaker C:

I must say, anything that can inadvertently make every people's lives better will be abused by someone.

Speaker C:

Yeah, that's just a reality that I don't think some people want to accept about anything.

Speaker C:

It's like anything that can make things better will be abused by somebody.

Speaker A:

And honestly, the face that I made is probably the face that I usually make over everything.

Speaker A:

I don't think it's enough.

Speaker D:

It wasn't.

Speaker C:

It wasn't.

Speaker C:

It was.

Speaker C:

It was almost like you were disgusted by it at first.

Speaker A:

I mean, you know what?

Speaker C:

I challenge you to go back and watch the clip yourself.

Speaker A:

I know what my face look like.

Speaker C:

Because you probably didn't even know you made the face.

Speaker A:

No, I do, because I know how I felt because it was.

Speaker A:

He said it, and it was like five or 10 seconds.

Speaker A:

And then I started thinking about.

Speaker A:

About it and that's when I know my first turn.

Speaker A:

Because everything's up here, bro.

Speaker A:

Was in here.

Speaker A:

Everything.

Speaker A:

Unless I'm on purpose giving you the face.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I can't control that, man.

Speaker A:

It's so.

Speaker A:

I know I have.

Speaker A:

I have a. I know my face look like this here.

Speaker A:

Like, I know that's what my face look like.

Speaker A:

So.

Speaker A:

No.

Speaker A:

Yeah, I don't have to look at it because I know how I. I felt and that's the face that I.

Speaker B:

Use when I feel that way.

Speaker A:

So, you know, that's cool.

Speaker A:

All right, Moby.

Speaker C:

I actually appreciate and celebrate the, like, level of acceptance that younger generation has towards people.

Speaker C:

Like, as much as we.

Speaker C:

As much as there's so many things about, like Asian hate, Jew hate, LGBTQ hate, there's so Much acceptance in the younger generation.

Speaker C:

Like, I, I go to my daughter's game and there's a, there's a male cheerleader, there's a black flag person in the band.

Speaker C:

I mean, there's a, there's a male flag person in the band.

Speaker C:

It's like all these things that were like, like you would never, never got away with like 25, 30 years ago.

Speaker C:

Just common.

Speaker C:

Like nobody even bats an eye at it.

Speaker C:

Like, it's like what it is like.

Speaker C:

And the thing is, it's not like there's more of this than it ever was before.

Speaker C:

It's just now there's a freedom and ability to be more open about it now.

Speaker C:

And that, that is something that, you know, a lot of people in our generation will claim that's the downfall of our society.

Speaker C:

Letting people get away with all these things that aren't in the norm.

Speaker C:

But truly, man, I for one admire even, even when I am joking about certain things.

Speaker C:

Like, because I feel like a lot of people are more open than, than there are people who are closed.

Speaker C:

It's just the people who are closed minded are so much louder.

Speaker C:

Because I firmly believe there's a.

Speaker C:

And this is my only belief, my own belief.

Speaker C:

I believe that more people do not care about your sexuality than actually do.

Speaker C:

Now I do believe that some of the people that don't care about your sexuality also don't necessarily want to be a part of that sexual journey with you.

Speaker C:

Like, hey, just because they not at the pride parade and they don't put the rainbow little icon up during Pride month and they don't do that, I don't think that means they're against you.

Speaker C:

Like Everybody who's not 100% at the parade with you ain't an OP.

Speaker C:

Some people are just like, hey man, do you.

Speaker C:

I feel like, I feel like the majority of people are more like, do you.

Speaker C:

I just feel like the people who are so against everything are just so, so much louder.

Speaker C:

And it's annoying.

Speaker C:

Like it annoys the people who ain't with, who ain't like that.

Speaker C:

Because either we gotta defend them or you gotta defend you.

Speaker C:

And it's like some people just don't.

Speaker C:

Some people just want to mind their business.

Speaker C:

Like, hey man, you gay.

Speaker B:

Cool.

Speaker C:

Don't.

Speaker C:

It don't mess my day up at all.

Speaker C:

It ain't gonna, it ain't gonna butter my bread, ain't gonna fry my chicken.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

Saying like we, I'm good either way.

Speaker B:

I gotta use that one.

Speaker B:

That was pretty good.

Speaker A:

Don't butter my bread, don't fry my chicken.

Speaker C:

I'm just saying, like, mo.

Speaker C:

I feel like most people are like that.

Speaker C:

And, and I feel like my daughter generates, like I go to her school and there's so much this going to almost sound like a slight.

Speaker C:

There's so much open gayness.

Speaker C:

And it's like it's not.

Speaker C:

I don't even mean that in a negative way.

Speaker C:

It's just, just like, hey, man, I see two dudes holding hands.

Speaker C:

I see girls.

Speaker C:

I mean, it's like, whatever, man.

Speaker C:

And, and it's not like it doesn't feel like it's like a big show.

Speaker C:

It feels like they're just another effing couple in high school.

Speaker C:

And probably how it always should be.

Speaker C:

Like, hey, they're just another couple in high school.

Speaker C:

Who cares?

Speaker C:

It's just like when people are like, oh man, you can't have a gay athlete in the locker room.

Speaker C:

Locker room.

Speaker C:

There's always been gay athletes in the locker room.

Speaker C:

And you know what?

Speaker C:

We always knew, we might not known who they were, but the law statistics state if it's like 100, some dudes in this locker room.

Speaker C:

Think college football.

Speaker C:

It's like 100 dudes in this locker room, somebody banging the dude.

Speaker C:

This, it's just essentially speaking somebody probably banging a dude.

Speaker C:

Now do I need to investigate?

Speaker A:

No.

Speaker C:

Do you?

Speaker C:

I don't care.

Speaker C:

Does it make me a bit of difference in this generation?

Speaker C:

I feel like is embracing that more, some might say to detriment, because I don't think.

Speaker C:

But I think with any group that's been disenfranchised and shunned and the seeking of equality, they tend to seek privilege because if you've only experienced the opposite of privilege, that's what you think equality is.

Speaker C:

So I don't even think it's a negative thing.

Speaker C:

But we talk about all these rules that come in place where it's like, if you've been oppressed, you look at what the oppressor does as equality.

Speaker C:

So you want that same privilege or.

Speaker C:

And you know that that's where time and space has to come to right the ship.

Speaker C:

So like any new group that's seeking equality, just understand if that's not the group you're a part of, just understand a lot of that's going to look like you.

Speaker C:

They want preferential treatment.

Speaker C:

Because until it balances out, that's what it is.

Speaker C:

Like, that's what white people have such a problem with the idea of affirmative action, like, oh, you're getting, you know, it's Perfect reference to treatments like, no, no.

Speaker C:

This was built to try to right the ship.

Speaker C:

It wasn't built so we could get more.

Speaker C:

It was built so we get the same amount.

Speaker C:

And this was the only way we could do it.

Speaker A:

So that.

Speaker C:

That's kind of how I look at all.

Speaker C:

All of the.

Speaker C:

The groups, even if it don't feel like that to me.

Speaker C:

So like I said, I look at.

Speaker C:

I look at my daughter's generation, just how comfortable they are with openness and acceptance, and I envy that.

Speaker C:

Like, even though they celebrate stupidity, they at least celebrate openness.

Speaker A:

I mean, that's true.

Speaker A:

So thank you.

Speaker A:

So I'm gonna actually piggyback on that.

Speaker A:

Moby.

Speaker A:

I feel like this generation is very similar.

Speaker A:

I think they're super confident because, man, they, like, they are willing to die on that hill on whatever they believe in.

Speaker A:

They are going to do everything and anything possible.

Speaker A:

And it's not.

Speaker A:

It doesn't.

Speaker C:

Participation trophies bred that.

Speaker C:

I mean, because when you get a participation trophy all the time, you always feel like you've been a winner, even if you were.

Speaker A:

Yeah, but I mean, like, yeah, but just not.

Speaker A:

Just.

Speaker A:

Not in the small things, but even the big things.

Speaker A:

Like, hey, man, like, there's a reason why young Republican groups are growing massively around the country in colleges and stuff.

Speaker A:

And it's just, hey, man, they.

Speaker A:

At least to their positive or their detriment, however you want to categorize it, at least they.

Speaker A:

They are willing to double down and believe and just.

Speaker A:

Just fight for whatever they believe believe in, whether it's good or bad, right or wrong.

Speaker A:

I mean, you know, I. I feel like.

Speaker A:

I feel like this generation is good, but they also could be a problem because they're gonna be the pitbull that ain't letting go.

Speaker A:

Even though they're wrong, as sometimes they're just like, hey, man, we're gonna.

Speaker A:

We're gonna ride this out and whatever happens, and it is what it is.

Speaker A:

But, you know, because they're more willing to do things that I would say at least our generation necessarily didn't do in abundance, because we did.

Speaker A:

We did our things.

Speaker A:

But I feel like these cats are just like, you know what?

Speaker A:

We see y' all do it, but we're gonna do it better than that, and then we're gonna actually make change happen.

Speaker A:

And, I mean, they come.

Speaker A:

Sometimes they come to the same, you know, thing that we came to.

Speaker A:

But, like, like, especially with the whole.

Speaker A:

With the whole the Ice stuff, man.

Speaker A:

Yo, that.

Speaker A:

This generation.

Speaker A:

That's their.

Speaker A:

That's their fight.

Speaker A:

Like, ICE is absolutely their fight.

Speaker A:

And they're.

Speaker A:

I mean, they're doing that.

Speaker A:

I mean, back in the.

Speaker A:

I mean really.

Speaker A:

I mean, ICE has done everything but pull out water hoses on these people, you know, and spray with that.

Speaker A:

Now they're just spraying it with bullets and they're just like, well, we still gonna stand here and do this?

Speaker A:

So, like, you know, I'm a confident guy, so I can see their confidence even if it's wrong, you know, I. I can appreciate, I can appreciate that with them.

Speaker A:

So that's.

Speaker A:

That's my thing.

Speaker A:

But yeah, I think it was interesting talking about the generation that is below us because now we are the old people in the room.

Speaker A:

So with that being said, and we.

Speaker C:

Did our civic duty too, we talked bad about them because that's.

Speaker C:

That's what.

Speaker C:

As an older person you're supposed to know that, but you don't, do.

Speaker C:

You gotta keep them humble, man.

Speaker A:

Yeah, them kids az or so your mind.

Speaker B:

Learning how to cook will save you money because food is not cheap and delivery is even more expensive.

Speaker B:

Learn how to cook it yourself.

Speaker B:

It's not that hard.

Speaker B:

That is what's on my mind.

Speaker A:

You know, the funny thing about that is at my job, we don't talk about the job too much.

Speaker A:

I've never seen doordash use so much every day, man.

Speaker A:

Every day.

Speaker A:

And I'm just like, hi, I. I'm broke and you're doordashing every day.

Speaker A:

It's amazing.

Speaker A:

But I guess, I guess you budget for what you need, I guess.

Speaker B:

Convenience, man.

Speaker B:

That's what it is.

Speaker B:

It's a.

Speaker B:

Convenience is a powerful thing.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Hey, that damn.

Speaker A:

Not for me.

Speaker A:

Like, I'm with you, man.

Speaker A:

I'd rather cook it if I can do it.

Speaker C:

I mean, you rather.

Speaker C:

Look, man, every, every generation has things that they pay for just out of convenience, not necessarily need.

Speaker C:

Like there's plenty of things that you have no problem paying for that somebody would be like, you don't really need that.

Speaker A:

Oh yeah, I spent a lot of privilege money.

Speaker A:

I mean, yeah, you're right.

Speaker A:

I. I'll give credit, man, the door that whoever came up with that, they paid because.

Speaker A:

Hey man, consistently.

Speaker C:

Do we think.

Speaker C:

Do we think Covid was created by doordash and Uber Eats and all that?

Speaker C:

Because like, nobody benefited more from them.

Speaker C:

Nobody benefited more.

Speaker A:

I couldn't do it.

Speaker C:

I mean, doordash and Ubereats all that, like it was a thing.

Speaker C:

But it won't.

Speaker C:

It won't a thing like this.

Speaker B:

Well, actually, that the COVID put us all in position to have to do it almost.

Speaker C:

Because once again, that's why I'm like, if anybody, if there's ever a conspiracy theory, it's like, hey man, food delivery services, man, that's.

Speaker A:

That's amazing.

Speaker A:

If they did.

Speaker B:

Hey man, I ain't mad at the hustle.

Speaker B:

I'm just saying I don't need it, that's all.

Speaker B:

Once I get this pizza dough right.

Speaker C:

You still ain't got pizza dough right, man.

Speaker B:

Huh?

Speaker C:

You still ain't got the pizza dough right.

Speaker B:

I don't practice it enough.

Speaker B:

I don't.

Speaker B:

And honestly the, the thing that I need that I struggle with is the kneading part.

Speaker B:

Because I don't use a mixer.

Speaker B:

Cuz a mixer kind of mixes it and kneads it for you at the same time.

Speaker B:

Makes it a lot easier.

Speaker B:

But if you're.

Speaker B:

If you're kneading by hand, you got to learn how to knead well and it's.

Speaker C:

Hey, you got to learn how to make the proper dough.

Speaker C:

Like.

Speaker C:

Are you trying to make your own dough?

Speaker B:

Yeah, actually the, the.

Speaker B:

There's plenty of good recipes out there.

Speaker B:

But that needing part, bro, it's.

Speaker A:

So as a person who used to work for pizza company, yes, it's very.

Speaker A:

The cost is very inexpensive.

Speaker A:

The problem is how much you're doing it.

Speaker A:

And for pizza you almost have to either A freeze everything all the time once you get it done, or B, you have to eat that shit like every week in order to be.

Speaker A:

For it really to be.

Speaker A:

Be cost effective.

Speaker A:

Because it's so inexpensive to.

Speaker A:

To.

Speaker A:

For a company to make it.

Speaker A:

I mean the average pizza costs like a dollar and thirty cents, man.

Speaker A:

I mean it goes up like if you get a Supreme, it's more like 215, stuff like that.

Speaker A:

So I mean like it only prop.

Speaker A:

It's only profitable for the person at home actually the more people they have.

Speaker A:

But it's like is you and Boula.

Speaker A:

I mean you could do it, but the problem is you gotta do it and you gotta freeze everything and all that for it to be really profitable and worthwhile.

Speaker B:

No, I realize, but I don't mind, I don't mind any of that.

Speaker B:

Cuz it's like once you.

Speaker B:

Once you let it ferment, just put that dough in the freezer and I know she's good for two.

Speaker B:

Two pieces of pizzas about two pieces of month.

Speaker B:

So if I had like eight doughs frozen, man, I'm good forever.

Speaker B:

So that's.

Speaker B:

That's the only thing I'm saying.

Speaker B:

It's just like.

Speaker B:

But My biggest.

Speaker B:

Like I said, my biggest thing is it's something that you have to practice, and I don't.

Speaker B:

I don't do it enough or I can't eat enough pizza for me to practice as much as I need.

Speaker A:

Which is.

Speaker A:

Which is the other thing.

Speaker A:

Yes.

Speaker B:

Because if you.

Speaker B:

I mean, you worked at a pizza joint, by the time you left there, you really understood what was going on.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

So you.

Speaker B:

You know, so.

Speaker B:

And then, too, I think with y'.

Speaker B:

All.

Speaker B:

Didn't they.

Speaker B:

Didn't they.

Speaker B:

You had a.

Speaker B:

You had a dough ball that was already ready to go.

Speaker B:

You didn't have to need it, did you?

Speaker A:

So for certain, for, like, pan pizzas, yes.

Speaker A:

We mixed it and needed it, and, you know, the machine needed it and stuff like that.

Speaker A:

We just had to pull it out, cut it, boom, boom, boom, Put it where it needs to go, all that, because it's in bulk.

Speaker A:

Right.

Speaker A:

So that.

Speaker A:

That was that thing now, hand toss.

Speaker A:

That shit was frozen, but you had to put it out to let it.

Speaker B:

Go room temperature for that.

Speaker A:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker A:

And I mean, that took.

Speaker A:

Honestly, it took anywhere from 12 to 18 hours, realistically.

Speaker A:

So you would do that the night before, put it in the, walk in, and then by the time you get there in the morning, you're good to go.

Speaker A:

But normal people.

Speaker A:

Yeah, like, it's just.

Speaker A:

It's.

Speaker A:

It's just tedious.

Speaker B:

That's all it is, man.

Speaker B:

I can do tedious, man, because, like, I did.

Speaker B:

I did grinders for her over the.

Speaker B:

This weekend.

Speaker B:

I made enough grinders that it would cost me $80 if I.

Speaker B:

If I would have.

Speaker B:

If I would have grubhub that through Amazon.

Speaker B:

With the amount of grinders we.

Speaker B:

I think we had, like, seven or eight, man.

Speaker B:

You know how much that cost?

Speaker B:

Come on, bro.

Speaker B:

Yeah, that's all I'm saying.

Speaker B:

Now, the initial cost, you know, hurt a little bit because we didn't have all the meats we had to have.

Speaker B:

But honestly, once you get past that, that first one was expensive.

Speaker B:

The next seven were, like pennies on the dollar.

Speaker B:

And that's all I'm saying.

Speaker B:

And it's just like, the other cost that you alleviate is the.

Speaker B:

Can you make your own stand in your house?

Speaker A:

Did you make your own on bread?

Speaker B:

No, but if I did, that'd be even more cheap, so.

Speaker B:

Only thing I'm saying is, y' all learn how to cook this fast.

Speaker B:

Food is not that hard, and there's too much YouTube out there for you not to know, so that's all I'm saying.

Speaker A:

All right, Moby what's on your mind?

Speaker C:

We were talking about the young generation, but what's on my mind is actually the older generation.

Speaker C:

I want to issue y' all an apology because not just y', all, per se, I'll say older.

Speaker C:

You know, I gave my mom and my grandma a lot of back in the day.

Speaker C:

I really did.

Speaker C:

I gave them a bit over some of the transgressions and, like, I don't know, know, insults I felt from, like, people at my grandma's church and the older generation talking about how terrible my generation was and how little respect we had for everything.

Speaker C:

And I just want to apologize because now as I get older, I realize y' all were still wrong, but I feel the exact same way that y' all did about the younger generation.

Speaker B:

Generation.

Speaker C:

Like, I still think y' all were wrong in many ways.

Speaker C:

I'm like, hey, you know, you're pushing young people away while we ever want to follow your lead, when all you do is tell us how terrible we are.

Speaker C:

So I'm trying to caution myself from not being that towards the younger generation, but I really feel the same way they did.

Speaker C:

Like, so.

Speaker C:

So I want to apologize because for a long time, I was acting like I was better, and now I just want to let you.

Speaker C:

I got my hand up, and I'm just like.

Speaker C:

Like, nah, nah, I ain't no better.

Speaker C:

I ain't either.

Speaker C:

Half these kids no respect.

Speaker C:

No.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

So, yeah, I want to take a moment and, like, apologize, because, like, hey, man, a lot of the stuff I was giving y' all flack over, I'm kind of the same way.

Speaker C:

Y' all was complaining about my music, and I'm just like, man, you don't understand, man.

Speaker C:

This is.

Speaker C:

This is just what's going on in my generation, and these are just the way they're artfully expressing it, and they're telling stories about what's going on.

Speaker C:

And I'm listening to my kids music, and I'm just like, the.

Speaker C:

Are y' all listening to.

Speaker C:

Man,.

Speaker A:

Speak on it.

Speaker A:

Speak on it.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

I'm watching sports, and I'm just like, man, you know, in my day, we did this.

Speaker C:

We did this.

Speaker C:

Sports was different.

Speaker C:

And I'm looking at these kids who are better athletes, strong, stronger, faster, like, more educated on the actual game itself.

Speaker C:

And I'm still like, y' all ain't back in my day when we had lesser athletes and less information and we didn't train for this one thing that you do all the time we were better.

Speaker C:

Like, I know that sounds I.

Speaker C:

It does.

Speaker C:

Now I can firmly say I don't know if some of them could have survived the sports we played.

Speaker C:

Like, especially football.

Speaker C:

I'm just like, hey, y' all kids couldn't survive two a day.

Speaker C:

Y' all don't even know what a two a day is like.

Speaker C:

Not, not, not.

Speaker C:

Hey, we had a long practice today.

Speaker C:

I mean like really, we had two full ass practices in one day.

Speaker C:

Like the amount of stuff we were supposed to do in one day at a practice, we did that twice, twice in the heat.

Speaker C:

And there was nobody that was going to tell us it's too hot to be outside like this generation has.

Speaker C:

But at the same time, that's smart.

Speaker C:

I can admit that.

Speaker C:

That's smart.

Speaker C:

But I can also admit I'm now the old person.

Speaker C:

That's just like, I ain't.

Speaker C:

And you ain't never gonna be.

Speaker C:

Now I'm not gonna say the next part.

Speaker C:

I ain't gonna be like, because your mom ain't or your dad daddy ain't or, or I ain't gonna Five Heartbeats this thing and be like, you ain't gonna be.

Speaker C:

Cause I ain't.

Speaker C:

Like, I ain't about to do that.

Speaker C:

Like, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

Like I want them to be better, but like I don't.

Speaker C:

I, I can honestly say, man, I'll be.

Speaker C:

I don't be feeling all that hope though.

Speaker C:

Like I don't, I don't.

Speaker C:

It don't look good to me.

Speaker C:

Like I said, I feel like I celebrate stupidity.

Speaker C:

I'm with you Reuben, on a lot of yalls.

Speaker C:

Music is terrible.

Speaker C:

But I also fully acknowledge, which you don't.

Speaker C:

But I fully acknowledge all the time I ain't supposed to get the music.

Speaker C:

Not supposed to like whatever is popular music in culture.

Speaker C:

That's a young man's game.

Speaker C:

That's what it's supposed to be.

Speaker C:

That's what it's always been.

Speaker C:

Once you hit, you know, honestly, once you hit 40, game over for you.

Speaker C:

Music wise, you, you are officially an oldie station guy.

Speaker C:

Because things that I don't even think of as oldies, my kids are, oh, that's how it was back in the old days.

Speaker C:

I'm like, that was:

Speaker C:

What you talking about?

Speaker C:

Like.

Speaker C:

The olden days.

Speaker C:

I mean, but they not wrong cuz to them they weren't born.

Speaker A:

They don't have to say the olden days.

Speaker A:

That's up.

Speaker B:

I mean, what.

Speaker C:

This is the classical music.

Speaker C:

Reuben, she thinks she's listening to Classical music when she's listening to 90s R& beat.

Speaker C:

I didn't say old school.

Speaker C:

She thinks she's listening to classical music like this.

Speaker C:

Like this is damn near Beethoven to her.

Speaker A:

She, she.

Speaker C:

She's just like, oh, man, the composers of Drew Hill were amazing.

Speaker A:

I'm just like, shut up, man.

Speaker B:

I mean, think about it from her point of view.

Speaker C:

I mean, from her perspective, Reuben.

Speaker C:

Like that.

Speaker C:

That is 30, like almost 30 years ago she said to.

Speaker A:

That's.

Speaker C:

That's too hurt.

Speaker C:

That's two of her ago.

Speaker A:

But does she really say it like that?

Speaker C:

No.

Speaker C:

When I say she approaches it like she's class.

Speaker C:

Like she, she.

Speaker C:

Like, if you say 90s R B, Reuben, are you going to dare call it old school?

Speaker A:

I would call it old school.

Speaker C:

I probably would now because I have kids.

Speaker A:

Well, yeah.

Speaker A:

Well, I would now because it's 30 years.

Speaker C:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

If you, if you're listening to 90s R B, are you thinking, man, I'm listening to all these oldies, you might think, man, these throwbacks.

Speaker C:

Throwbacks are lesser term.

Speaker C:

It's.

Speaker C:

It's a more gentle term.

Speaker C:

No, nobody calls throwback old.

Speaker C:

We just say it's.

Speaker B:

It's vintage.

Speaker C:

It's like selling the difference between you got an old ass beat up car and you got a vintage car.

Speaker C:

Like we really saying the same thing but from two different perspectives.

Speaker C:

Ah, so I'm saying, man, like, I owe the older people an apology, man.

Speaker C:

Like I thought.

Speaker C:

I thought y' all was just bitter old people that was, you know, mad because your ass was old.

Speaker C:

But nah, man, y'.

Speaker C:

All, y' all was just looking at things from yalls perspective.

Speaker C:

And f granted, I'm with you, man.

Speaker C:

I'm.

Speaker C:

I'm kind of there now too, man.

Speaker C:

Like, I kind of miss a world where everybody didn't have a cell phone.

Speaker C:

Like, I miss leaving the house and people not being able to get in contact with me until I get home.

Speaker C:

Like, I miss slight check in the answer machine.

Speaker C:

Hey, did somebody hit me up?

Speaker C:

Cool.

Speaker C:

I'll hit them back one day.

Speaker B:

One day.

Speaker C:

That's funny.

Speaker C:

Y people, these kids don't even check them.

Speaker C:

They create voicemails.

Speaker C:

They're like, who leaves a voicemail message?

Speaker C:

I'll just text them.

Speaker A:

I don't know.

Speaker C:

And here's the thing.

Speaker C:

It's not bad logic.

Speaker C:

It's not bad logic.

Speaker C:

Texas is quicker, more efficient.

Speaker C:

But kids ain't, man, sometimes just.

Speaker C:

Just say a message, man, like.

Speaker C:

Or let me at least set up your own voicemail so I can leave You a message.

Speaker C:

What if I don't want to do all this thumb thugging to you there?

Speaker C:

I called you because I wanted to say some, not because I wanted to text you.

Speaker C:

I didn't call you and was like, hey, check your text message.

Speaker C:

Although in all fairness, I have called somebody to be like, did you check the text message?

Speaker C:

So in all fairness, I have done that, but I ain't do that every time.

Speaker C:

So that's it, man.

Speaker C:

I just wanted to.

Speaker C:

I just wanted to give an apology to my mom, my grandma, my uncle, you, my, my uncle Junior, my uncle Benji, who ain't here, who used to talk, Cash, about the younger dudes.

Speaker C:

I kind of feel like y' all did now, man.

Speaker C:

So, like, you know, my bad.

Speaker C:

That's it.

Speaker A:

All right.

Speaker A:

Thank you.

Speaker A:

I'm gonna be honest with you, Moby.

Speaker A:

There's nothing more cash than you said all that, and your screen is frozen, and it's like you like talking and your face ain't changing, and it's just.

Speaker A:

Just that much, much more funnier to watch.

Speaker C:

You know what?

Speaker C:

That's.

Speaker C:

That's even more old school, you know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

Like, hey, man, you don't need access to how I look in this moment.

Speaker B:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker C:

Like, hey, that's what I look like.

Speaker A:

Okay, because you got the face on funny.

Speaker A:

That's why I want to say that, because I'm sitting there watching it, but your face ain't moved.

Speaker A:

But I hear you talking, and the shit's hilarious.

Speaker A:

So if they're watching this on YouTube, they're going to be like, that dude's face ain't moving, but he over there talking cat.

Speaker A:

He was great.

Speaker A:

He could talk, Cash.

Speaker A:

His face don't move.

Speaker A:

So hilarious.

Speaker A:

Nah, man.

Speaker A:

Like, honestly, what's on my minds be very quick.

Speaker A:

Yo, man, it's not even about.

Speaker A:

Normally, I am a proponent of them kids, them parents, man.

Speaker A:

Like, bro, there is nothing more crazy than to sit there and record your.

Speaker A:

Your kid doing absolute dumb.

Speaker A:

Like, literally, your kid literally runs into the glass door and your ass is laughing at your kid, man.

Speaker A:

Like, how about you tell your kid to slow the down?

Speaker A:

Like, how about you tell your kid not to shoot herself in his penis with a toy gun?

Speaker A:

Like, what are we doing?

Speaker A:

And it's just.

Speaker A:

And you know, and we just sat here talking about how stupid this generation is.

Speaker A:

There's a whole another dumbass generation following them, too, and it's the parents fault.

Speaker A:

And it's just, yo, man, you know who you are.

Speaker A:

If you got Some dumbass video of your kids doing dumbass on the Internet, then you are the problem.

Speaker A:

Because I'm.

Speaker A:

I'm gonna tell you, strip.

Speaker A:

I'm laughing at that all day.

Speaker A:

But it also makes me feel sad.

Speaker A:

Not even about this generation.

Speaker A:

What's coming up behind that?

Speaker A:

And it's just like, bruh.

Speaker A:

Like, it's bad enough we sat here for almost two hours, talk cold cash about this current generation.

Speaker A:

We got a whole nother generation coming behind that.

Speaker A:

That might be dumber.

Speaker C:

I mean, well, chances are they will be because we celebrate stupidity.

Speaker D:

So.

Speaker A:

And it's just like.

Speaker A:

Like last week when I said, hey, man, the world can be one thing, or it could be idiosyncrasy or whatever that.

Speaker A:

Is that right?

Speaker B:

Idiocy.

Speaker A:

Idiocracy.

Speaker A:

We're trending to idiocracy.

Speaker B:

We're there.

Speaker C:

We always have been.

Speaker C:

We always have been, though.

Speaker A:

Nah, man, we're not the movie.

Speaker B:

We were discussed that.

Speaker B:

We are there, Reuben.

Speaker B:

We are there.

Speaker A:

We're not.

Speaker A:

We're not doing plants for Gatorade yet.

Speaker A:

We still got hope.

Speaker B:

I mean, Kentucky drinks, Mountain Dew, doesn't go to the dentist.

Speaker A:

I mean, that's true.

Speaker A:

God damn it.

Speaker A:

Like.

Speaker A:

Like, that's true.

Speaker A:

I mean, maybe they're idiocracy, but the.

Speaker B:

Rest of us, this whole country, sir, we're here.

Speaker A:

I mean.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

You know, next thing you know, a wrestler will be president.

Speaker A:

And then.

Speaker C:

I mean, it doesn't have to be a wrestler.

Speaker D:

We.

Speaker C:

We have a celebrity.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker C:

Who's.

Speaker C:

Who.

Speaker C:

Whose only political qualification was that he was famous.

Speaker A:

Really?

Speaker A:

Is that.

Speaker A:

Is that a qualification?

Speaker C:

Qualification was that he was famous.

Speaker A:

I mean, I don't even know if that's even a qualification.

Speaker C:

Yes, it's because it was necessary, because you had to be known to be voted for.

Speaker A:

I don't know.

Speaker A:

We voted for a whole bunch of people nobody knew of for, like, two years.

Speaker C:

Yes.

Speaker C:

Because they.

Speaker C:

They had to be political.

Speaker C:

This dude did not do anything in politics, but we knew who he was.

Speaker C:

Unfortunate to one or the other.

Speaker A:

Why do you.

Speaker C:

You think Stephen A. Smith is trying to do politics?

Speaker C:

Because he knows, hey, I'm famous enough.

Speaker C:

Nobody's gonna care if I don't actually know politics.

Speaker C:

He said he doesn't know politics.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

That's sad.

Speaker A:

But, yeah.

Speaker A:

But, yeah, man.

Speaker A:

I mean, well, if we.

Speaker A:

If we're going down the rabbit hole.

Speaker A:

Slow it down a little bit.

Speaker A:

Don't put your.

Speaker A:

Don't put your kids doing dumb on the Internet.

Speaker A:

That's just.

Speaker A:

I mean, that ain't going to wear, man.

Speaker A:

That kid is going to grow up, try to run for office, and somebody's gonna show a picture of him shooting herself in the penis.

Speaker A:

Like, do you really want this as your politician?

Speaker A:

I mean like, bro, I mean, protect your kids, man.

Speaker A:

This is the same your kids fault.

Speaker A:

Protect your kids, you know, and don't get it twisted.

Speaker A:

We say them kids a lot, but because some of them are actually stupid.

Speaker A:

But like, don't help him.

Speaker A:

That's all I'm saying.

Speaker A:

Don't, don't help stupidity.

Speaker A:

Keep that a secret as long as you can.

Speaker A:

Like, that's all I'm saying, man.

Speaker A:

That's all I'm saying.

Speaker B:

Reuben, that's pretty unreasonable, man.

Speaker B:

It's hard to do.

Speaker C:

Can't hide, man.

Speaker C:

I mean, can't hide.

Speaker A:

I know.

Speaker A:

I guess it goes against everything I believe in.

Speaker A:

But like, right a little bit.

Speaker A:

I'm not saying a lot, just a little bit, you know?

Speaker C:

Know.

Speaker A:

That's all I'm saying, man.

Speaker B:

Okay.

Speaker A:

And also, yeah, man, like that like the comedian said, bro, stop calling your mom.

Speaker A:

Like, what are we doing?

Speaker C:

You know that white dude gets it, man.

Speaker A:

Yeah, he understands, man.

Speaker A:

It's like, yeah, man, don't use the nword.

Speaker A:

But I mean, stop calling your pairs of meats dude.

Speaker C:

Yeah, come here.

Speaker C:

Why is that not enough of a reason?

Speaker A:

Yeah, it's just like, bro, like.

Speaker A:

Cause I feel like if any black parent, any black child were to call their mom outside of her name, once they wake up, they'll realize they probably shouldn't have done that.

Speaker B:

Will they wake up though?

Speaker A:

I mean, look, man, some, some parents have pity on their children.

Speaker A:

I never found out of my DID because I didn't do stupid.

Speaker C:

I'm gonna say ag the first time.

Speaker C:

You probably will wake up because like I, I want to say, no matter how much a mom won't tolerate disrespect, they give you one.

Speaker C:

Now, I don't mean you not gonna wake up with some injuries, but, but they're gonna hope that when you wake up, hey, you got some.

Speaker C:

Now you got some sense now, like, because you.

Speaker C:

I don't know what happened to you earlier, but you.

Speaker C:

I was trying to save you your life by whooping your leg.

Speaker B:

Save your life.

Speaker A:

I mean, but she's not wrong.

Speaker A:

He's not.

Speaker C:

Especially back in the day when we were, we were consistently having two parent households, which, you know, the black community is more prevalent now.

Speaker C:

But like back in the day, if you'd called your mama a and your mama would have whooped your ass, she actually would have been saving your Life.

Speaker C:

Because what you wouldn't have wanted to happen is for her to tell you dad you called her a.

Speaker C:

Cause you might die.

Speaker B:

Yeah.

Speaker B:

He fights you like a man for sure.

Speaker B:

He would beat you with his fist.

Speaker B:

He would beat you like he.

Speaker B:

Yeah, it would be bad because he would start talking to you like if you ever call my wife that again, I'll kill you.

Speaker C:

Because now it ain't your mama no more.

Speaker C:

You talking to my wife?

Speaker B:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker B:

Once he says that you cross the.

Speaker B:

He crossed over to a dark place.

Speaker A:

Just saying, you know, and when I say crazy when I say stuff like, like I love my parents.

Speaker A:

I mean I've gotten some whoopings in my day, but they never hit me in the face, man.

Speaker A:

Like, I appreciate that you call on Shirley.

Speaker C:

Your parents knew the idea between disciplining and whooping your ass.

Speaker C:

There's a difference.

Speaker B:

I don't know, man.

Speaker B:

You call on Shirley, something like that out her name, she might, first of all, she might slap you in the face and dare you do something about it.

Speaker C:

That would have been a warranted ass whooping.

Speaker C:

I wouldn't have called that abuse.

Speaker C:

Me neither.

Speaker C:

I would call that a valuable life less person.

Speaker A:

And honestly I don't, I wouldn't.

Speaker A:

I don't even think about where.

Speaker A:

Cuz I believe my parents have telepathy.

Speaker A:

If you even think about calling them out there non player.

Speaker A:

Never, not in their presence anyway.

Speaker A:

That like I believe my mom can read my mind and that's.

Speaker A:

That's it.

Speaker B:

She was thinking about saying it.

Speaker A:

Pow.

Speaker A:

Yeah, exactly.

Speaker A:

Minority reporter for that.

Speaker B:

Exactly.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker A:

Nah man, I don't even.

Speaker A:

Bruh, we don't think about that.

Speaker A:

We never.

Speaker A:

I never thought about that in that household.

Speaker B:

Gonna him you up for, for something he was about to say.

Speaker A:

I, I could be mad, but never would I be like words like that, man, whatever.

Speaker A:

I ain't got time.

Speaker A:

Look, I didn't get that many ass whoopings, but the ones I got were memorable and we don't need to repeat those.

Speaker A:

So like, you know, hey man, you.

Speaker C:

Learned the first time, the more memorable, the more valuable the lesson.

Speaker A:

Damn straight.

Speaker A:

Like that's the problem these kids don't.

Speaker C:

Get because everybody remembers those ass whoopings.

Speaker C:

But you also remember why you got it.

Speaker C:

Yeah, because that's, that's the important part.

Speaker C:

Not, not the ass whooping happened.

Speaker C:

You remember why you got.

Speaker A:

Got it.

Speaker A:

Yeah.

Speaker C:

Not just enough to be like, hey, that one time my mom whooped my ass like cuz that's that.

Speaker C:

Nobody learns anything from that.

Speaker C:

But it's like, hey, I remember when I did this.

Speaker C:

I'm g. Whoop my ass.

Speaker C:

See, you learned the lesson, bro.

Speaker A:

I could tell you every ass whooping I got and why I got it.

Speaker A:

And that's.

Speaker C:

That means.

Speaker C:

That means they did a good job of doing the discipline thing.

Speaker A:

That's right.

Speaker C:

Like, you can correlate your trans with the ass whooping.

Speaker A:

And see, it was never.

Speaker A:

It was.

Speaker A:

Mom never whooped my ass.

Speaker A:

I'm gonna tell your father.

Speaker A:

And he gets off at 11.

Speaker C:

Hey, same thing I said about like, hey, man, if your mama whoop your ass, if you called her a, she actually saved your life because you wouldn't have wanted your dad to hear it.

Speaker A:

Nah, man.

Speaker A:

That.

Speaker A:

Which switches and belts, man.

Speaker A:

Never the hand.

Speaker A:

It was no fingerprints allowed.

Speaker A:

So even if I was like, first of all, child protective surgeons, what the fuck was that?

Speaker A:

I don't know what that existed.

Speaker A:

I don't know what that was.

Speaker C:

And see, I did know what it was.

Speaker C:

But I always had the realization that they gotta get here first.

Speaker C:

They gotta get here, they gotta get here.

Speaker A:

And if they five minutes away, that's five minutes.

Speaker C:

And once again, in my generation, everybody didn't have cell phones and everything.

Speaker C:

So they ain't like, I could have just gone to my room and call somebody.

Speaker C:

Yeah, I was gonna be able to call.

Speaker C:

Was calling the house phone, and my mama gonna hear me be like, hey, I need y' all to come help me.

Speaker C:

And then I'm gonna get off the phone, and then she's gonna be like, how long you think it's gonna take them to get here?

Speaker C:

And how much you think I can whoop your ass before they get here?

Speaker A:

Man, your mom's cerebral.

Speaker A:

I love it.

Speaker C:

Well, no, she didn't have to say that.

Speaker C:

I thought that she.

Speaker C:

She didn't even have to think that I was thinking for myself, like, hey, I don't know if I trust they gonna get here now.

Speaker C:

I'm like, plus, I don't.

Speaker C:

We don't live in a wide enough neighborhood for me to depend on them getting here quick.

Speaker B:

That's hilarious.

Speaker A:

We did that.

Speaker A:

But still, I won't plan that.

Speaker A:

And the village, man, you know, you think.

Speaker A:

You think your parents got something, then you gotta talk to uncles and aunts and, nah, it's not worth it.

Speaker A:

You just learn it's not worth it.

Speaker B:

This has been another episode of.

Speaker A:

The five Minute Warning.

Speaker D:

Let's talk about the N word real quick.

Speaker D:

Okay, look, so I was arguing with this guy online the other day because I don't use my time wisely, and he asked the annoying question, how come white people can't say the N word?

Speaker D:

It's like, bro, this is a video about a panda going down a slide.

Speaker D:

How did we get here?

Speaker D:

Regardless, I'll answer your question, okay?

Speaker D:

And I used to answer that question with far more words than it needs.

Speaker D:

Now I just say, you know what?

Speaker D:

I don't know.

Speaker D:

Black people ask us not to.

Speaker D:

Why isn't that a good enough reason?

Speaker D:

He's just saying that he thinks he's better than black people because they'll say the N word and he doesn't.

Speaker D:

It's like, you think you're better.

Speaker D:

Sure, black people might say the N word, but you, you know what?

Speaker D:

They don't curse when they're talking to their mothers.

Speaker D:

Right?

Speaker D:

Black people know what I'm talking about.

Speaker D:

I can tell.

Speaker D:

You're looking at me like, what do you mean?

Speaker D:

You can't call your mother a bitch.

Speaker D:

What if she's acting like a bitch?

Speaker D:

And if you need more examples, let's talk music.

Speaker D:

Tupac, he said the N word.

Speaker D:

A bunch.

Speaker D:

He also had a song called Dear Mama, which was about how much he loved his mama.

Speaker D:

Now, let's compare him to a who doesn't use the N word in his music.

Speaker D:

Eminem, for example, he's had songs about his mama, about how he wanted to murder that bitch.

Speaker D:

And they're good songs.

Speaker A:

They're good songs.

Speaker D:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker D:

And they're good songs.

Speaker D:

But honestly, you can never even have an Eminem version of Dear Mama.

Speaker D:

Even though you's a meth fiend, Mama, you'll always be my white queen, mama.
