Speaker 1:
[00:00] Just don't call it a podcast. Yo, man. Ebro and Laura and Rosenberg.

Speaker 2:
[00:17] Good morning, good morning.

Speaker 1:
[00:18] The main request is, can we go a day without talking about Drake? That's the main request I get. Can't you guys go a day without talking about Drake?

Speaker 3:
[00:29] You mean that's the main request you get from Drake fans? Or from Drake fans who are like internet weirdos?

Speaker 1:
[00:34] I just said the main request I get. That's the most of the requests I get.

Speaker 3:
[00:38] The answer is no, because especially now, we're entering Iceman season, baby.

Speaker 1:
[00:41] How do we even do that? How do we even do it?

Speaker 3:
[00:45] We got a date. We got a... We're all set. The ice has been broken. How do we do it?

Speaker 1:
[00:52] The Iceman cometh. Hey, yo. No, that's not what I wanted.

Speaker 3:
[00:58] Damn, he already coming for him. Second the show starts.

Speaker 1:
[01:01] You played yourself. That's not what I wanted. That wasn't the right button. That wasn't the right button. But yeah, no, the Drake Iceman update. So there was, for anybody out there that wasn't paying attention, there was a mound of ice placed in Toronto at a parking lot, so it seems. And all of the Drake fans gathered to try to break into the ice in some way, shape, or form.

Speaker 3:
[01:30] Totally.

Speaker 1:
[01:31] And then there was something in the ice.

Speaker 3:
[01:33] Right.

Speaker 1:
[01:35] Well, here's the winner. Do we have the stunt, the Iceman update? Number 10, let's see this. Yeah, let's go to number 10 first. Here we go. So, here's the ice. Then they closed it down, because people were taking axes and hammers and climbing and trying to set it on fire. Drake was even there, but he didn't count.

Speaker 3:
[02:01] Drake was there.

Speaker 1:
[02:02] Someone stole the ice. Now, there were some university specialists that said the ice is gonna take like two weeks to actually melt.

Speaker 3:
[02:15] Okay.

Speaker 1:
[02:17] But before it actually melted, we have number 15 here. This is the guy who actually figured out how to get into the ice and find out what was in the ice. He was a streamer, I think. Yeah. There he is. And now he's at Drake's house. This is him. Oh, this is what's in the ice. That was what was in the ice.

Speaker 4:
[02:36] May 15th.

Speaker 5:
[02:38] May 15th. Wow.

Speaker 3:
[02:42] Wow, you got the date.

Speaker 1:
[02:43] That's what was in the ice.

Speaker 3:
[02:45] Wow. The date is here. Is that what day of the week is May 15th?

Speaker 1:
[02:52] Haven't looked.

Speaker 3:
[02:55] I wonder if it's a... It is a Friday. The old Friday vibes. All right. You think there will be a single before then or he just drops the whole thing you think on that day?

Speaker 1:
[03:05] I have no idea. I'm excited for all of it. But I just want to say we couldn't go a day without talking about Drake.

Speaker 3:
[03:12] I saw you guys pointed out, you know, I was trying to avoid...

Speaker 1:
[03:17] And you know, 15, one plus five is...

Speaker 3:
[03:20] Six, God, baby. So they were... What was the blogger lady saying about me being a liar yesterday?

Speaker 1:
[03:27] I don't know. Laura forwarded it. I didn't watch the whole thing.

Speaker 3:
[03:29] Did you watch it? What did they say? How was I a liar?

Speaker 2:
[03:31] People are just reposting clips. And I don't know. I didn't really look into it. But that woman, Milagro Graham, is the one who was sued by Megan. And they've been going back and forth in court.

Speaker 3:
[03:43] She called me a liar when I said yesterday I felt like I went too hard or something.

Speaker 5:
[03:46] Like I was something.

Speaker 2:
[03:47] I think it was spineless, spineless, spineless.

Speaker 3:
[03:50] I love I love spineless. They get the throw. Yeah. If you have a backbone, if you ever look back at anything and go, I don't know if I was the best thing I've ever done. They're like gutless, spineless loser.

Speaker 1:
[04:01] Well, I wonder what they're saying about these clips that surfaced on my algo yesterday. Can you go to let's see here? Number 12, please.

Speaker 3:
[04:11] Number 12.

Speaker 1:
[04:13] Is Drake scared of Kendrick?

Speaker 3:
[04:14] Let me get my direct question. yes.

Speaker 5:
[04:18] I think he'll be considered a classic. I'm not considering that Drake has any unilateral classics that will be seen by the culture. No, no, yeah.

Speaker 3:
[04:26] Like, you guys think Kendrick Lamar gives a?

Speaker 1:
[04:30] drop, Good Kid, Mad City, Damn.

Speaker 5:
[04:33] All sorts of classics, bro.

Speaker 3:
[04:36] Not trying and not giving a, bro.

Speaker 1:
[04:37] Yep. So either that's AI or that's academics. And what's that streamer's name?

Speaker 3:
[04:43] Aiden Ross?

Speaker 1:
[04:44] Aiden Ross.

Speaker 5:
[04:45] All sorts of classics, bro.

Speaker 3:
[04:47] Yeah, but that's before they were they were Team Six God.

Speaker 1:
[04:50] Well, I'm just saying if we're bringing up all of them, there's more.

Speaker 5:
[04:52] Is there some, his shit is amazing. Like, I get three and count. Three. And I'm not counting, I think all of these are classics. Like, is there some, his shit is amazing. Like, I get three and count. Tapeenba Butterfly. Even though, as a classic album? Yeah. I thought, I thought, like, by far, actually, I think the rapping on Tapeenba Butterfly is better than Good Kid Mad City. The songs, the songs on Good Kid Mad City, and some of the concepts that he kind of get into. And also, it's a first look on a big scale. So like, we see it differently. But if we just go by rapping, I think-

Speaker 3:
[05:29] Breaking down Tapeenba Butterfly, we didn't expect it.

Speaker 5:
[05:32] If we just told them on three albums-

Speaker 3:
[05:33] Wow. You didn't think you'd see that.

Speaker 1:
[05:35] Well, so like I said, either that's AI, and if you're spineless, what is that?

Speaker 3:
[05:41] Well, no. Listen, people's opinions evolve.

Speaker 1:
[05:43] People change.

Speaker 3:
[05:44] And also, people become friendly with people, and then all of a sudden, things change.

Speaker 1:
[05:47] There you go.

Speaker 3:
[05:48] You know what I'm saying? But when we've pointed out, hey, sometimes you become less friendly with people, and you're less likely to give them the benefit of the doubt because human beings are human beings, and those things evolve, then you get called gutless and spineless. So here you are, you spent the whole first six minutes of the show just talking about Drake. You can't keep Drake's name out your mouth.

Speaker 1:
[06:07] I can't.

Speaker 3:
[06:08] Yo, you're going to do this for the next three weeks till Iceman cometh?

Speaker 1:
[06:12] I was hoping it was coming sooner.

Speaker 2:
[06:15] You're stupid. You're stupid. Anyway.

Speaker 1:
[06:19] I was really looking forward to Drake's album this week, man. I don't know. Like May 15th. I'm here for it.

Speaker 3:
[06:25] It's kind of, I know this sounds insane, but given the era we live in, it's actually kind of a long rollout. Like announcing it and there being three weeks of waiting, it's actually kind of a long time, I think, for these days.

Speaker 1:
[06:39] It is. It is. But maybe to your point, maybe there will be more music. There will be more content. There will just be more. And so that will be more opportunity for us to talk about the great Drake.

Speaker 3:
[06:52] I think you're catching a stray on this album. Not even a stray. I think you may catch a direct bullet straight to the dome piece on this album.

Speaker 1:
[06:59] I mean, would that be good or bad?

Speaker 3:
[07:01] It would be hot out here. Iceman Cometh, right in your face. That's what the fans are gonna hit you with.

Speaker 1:
[07:14] Ladies and gentlemen, here in New York City, we have a mayor that's pretty popular. You might have heard of him.

Speaker 3:
[07:19] By the way, pretty popular. He's popular with some. He's pretty unpopular also.

Speaker 1:
[07:23] You seeing that? I mean, his poll numbers are incredible.

Speaker 3:
[07:27] Yeah, he's popular with people like us, and he's unpopular with people not like us. That's how this works.

Speaker 1:
[07:32] But I mean, generally speaking, like for New York City, that's very popular.

Speaker 3:
[07:39] Okay.

Speaker 1:
[07:39] Who's been more popular out the gate than Mamdani? And I don't know the answer. I'm really... I don't know either.

Speaker 3:
[07:45] I know it wasn't Adam. We know it wasn't Adam.

Speaker 2:
[07:47] It was not.

Speaker 3:
[07:48] He was not popular.

Speaker 2:
[07:49] de Blasio was not popular.

Speaker 3:
[07:51] But I don't remember if de Blasio out the gate was hated or if that came over time.

Speaker 1:
[07:55] What about Bloomberg?

Speaker 2:
[07:56] It became.

Speaker 1:
[07:56] Miguel Blumbito.

Speaker 3:
[07:58] I don't remember Blumbito, how they felt about Blumbito.

Speaker 2:
[08:01] But I agree with you. I think he is the most popular.

Speaker 1:
[08:03] Well, and on an international level, he's very popular.

Speaker 2:
[08:06] People are obsessed with talking about New York City mayors and then you click on their profile and they're from like Ohio.

Speaker 3:
[08:12] Well, I don't understand. What do you mean? Like people are just celebrating him in other places?

Speaker 1:
[08:16] Yeah. And he gets a lot of news coverage about what he's doing.

Speaker 3:
[08:20] Yeah. Well, he represents a lot of different ideals that people really like.

Speaker 1:
[08:25] But I think also because he's also Muslim and I think he's also just kind of an international person, right? Like he's born somewhere else. He looks different. His name is different. And I think these are all things that he also has.

Speaker 2:
[08:38] And his messaging is very clear.

Speaker 3:
[08:40] But he also has this charisma and this thing about it. Bro, it's politics, man. He's got the extra stuff. They don't know what he's doing or not doing. They like him. He's just likable. He's a character that you can grab on to and like.

Speaker 1:
[08:53] Go to clip one for me, Ruslan. Let me see if Laura still likes him after this.

Speaker 2:
[08:56] Let's see.

Speaker 1:
[08:58] Zora and Mamdani not going to that Met Gala, though.

Speaker 2:
[09:01] I saw this. What do you mean?

Speaker 1:
[09:04] Snubbing Laura's event.

Speaker 2:
[09:07] The Met Gala.

Speaker 1:
[09:08] You know Laura can't go a year without talking about the Met Gala.

Speaker 3:
[09:12] Everyone does. We all got to discuss it. Will you play along? That was years ago. Now we're all in on the Gala.

Speaker 1:
[09:19] You're not. I don't think you're in on the Gala.

Speaker 3:
[09:20] I don't know. I've gotten more into seeing the stupid outfits from the Gala.

Speaker 1:
[09:25] Have you? Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[09:26] I'm more in than I used to be.

Speaker 1:
[09:28] You're in to hating. You've always been in to hating. It's just fun to watch.

Speaker 3:
[09:33] I used to hate it more. And then when I understood that it's themed, I think it's stupid, but I can like wrap my head around the theme more. At first, when I just thought they were dressing like this by choice, I was like, what are y'all doing? But then when she explained the theme that they're trying to do, which of course is the theme every year is Illuminati, I'm trying to get to Epstein Island.

Speaker 1:
[09:54] Shut up.

Speaker 3:
[09:56] The theme is, who wins the golden ticket to Epstein Island? Now I understand. No, I don't hate it as much as I used to, but I respect him doing that because politicians get dragged for going.

Speaker 2:
[10:07] Of course.

Speaker 3:
[10:08] There's no, he would have gotten absolutely, yo, he might want to go, he might be like, yo, it would be kind of fun to go to the, he'd be the belle of the ball.

Speaker 1:
[10:15] Well, remember they came for his wife for her expensive boots.

Speaker 2:
[10:18] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[10:18] They came for AOC when she went.

Speaker 1:
[10:20] Yep.

Speaker 2:
[10:21] They come for all of them.

Speaker 3:
[10:22] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[10:22] Well, because they're socialists, so they're not supposed to do anything fun. Everything's supposed to be low budget, not fun, can't have any fun, you can't show up anywhere expensive.

Speaker 3:
[10:32] You definitely, it's definitely tough to go sit around or to take like a party with billionaires in it. It's not the brand you want probably.

Speaker 1:
[10:39] I honestly don't think he gives a damn.

Speaker 3:
[10:41] No, I bet he sincerely thinks it's, but he's the kind of person who would think that. So it's not that hard for him to not go. He would be among the people like, yo, why are you going to hang out with all? You have work to do for the city. Go do your work.

Speaker 2:
[10:54] It's actually on brand for him.

Speaker 3:
[10:54] It's on brand for him to not go.

Speaker 1:
[10:55] Now, there is the charity side that you always bring up, Brian Marshall.

Speaker 2:
[10:58] Yeah. But I'm sure he's confident that they're going to raise enough money.

Speaker 3:
[11:01] Yeah, without him.

Speaker 2:
[11:02] For the Costume Institute.

Speaker 1:
[11:04] He was recently in an interview and asked about Palestinian presidential candidates.

Speaker 6:
[11:11] Um, number six was some former vice president Kamala Harris said just last week, she is thinking about running for president again. Would you like to see former vice president Kamala Harris run for president again?

Speaker 4:
[11:26] I have to be honest, I haven't thought about the candidacies for president this time. My focus is 2026.

Speaker 6:
[11:31] You're the only Democrat who hasn't thought about that.

Speaker 4:
[11:34] And I'm proud to say that I am not and will never be running for president. And here in 2026, I want to be delivering for New Yorkers. And when it comes to the national level, I want to make sure that we win these midterms and actually have a vision that we're fighting for, not just one that we're fighting against.

Speaker 6:
[11:49] Given that former vice president Kamala Harris was the nominee in 2024, do you think she would be the strongest person to represent Democrats in 2020?

Speaker 4:
[11:59] I know you're trying to get me to answer the previous question again. But I have to be honest with you, I think that New Yorkers are tired of politicians notifying about other politicians what they want to see our results, and that's why my focus has been more on potholes than on politics.

Speaker 3:
[12:13] She missed the... Kristen missed the big spot, though, there.

Speaker 1:
[12:16] Which is?

Speaker 3:
[12:17] I am not and will never be running for president. That's the stop and go. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Never will be.

Speaker 1:
[12:23] Can he?

Speaker 2:
[12:24] He can. He wasn't born in the United States.

Speaker 3:
[12:26] He wasn't born here.

Speaker 2:
[12:27] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[12:28] Change the rules. That's what the Republicans do.

Speaker 1:
[12:29] True.

Speaker 3:
[12:30] If you're popular enough, change it.

Speaker 1:
[12:32] And maybe that'll happen.

Speaker 3:
[12:33] Damn, I forgot. I forgot he wasn't born here. Yeah. That's a drag, that rule.

Speaker 1:
[12:38] You don't like the rules, huh?

Speaker 3:
[12:39] Change it. I'm not at this moment because he's the most popular Democrat. And he's one who actually stands for something.

Speaker 1:
[12:45] Well, he's the most popular Democrat who can run, because Obama is the most popular Democrat.

Speaker 3:
[12:50] I think there's a chance that in relatively short order, Mamdani will be more popular than Obama.

Speaker 1:
[12:56] Soon come.

Speaker 3:
[12:57] Yeah, maybe even already amongst young people. Okay. Because young people who are truly progressive don't think Obama stands for anything.

Speaker 1:
[13:03] Right, because he was...

Speaker 3:
[13:04] He's a centrist Democrat.

Speaker 1:
[13:06] Well, and out of context, when you look at Obama now, he wasn't, you know, what did he really stand for? A lot is the answer. But at the time, it was great.

Speaker 3:
[13:17] Politically, he didn't stand for that much as far as progressive ideals. You know what I mean? Like, he was a good man. That's it. He was a good man, a great front-facing leader for us to have who made the right decisions for the most part. Mamdani is a man of true progressive principle. It's a different sort of thing.

Speaker 1:
[13:38] Yeah, it's a different thing.

Speaker 3:
[13:39] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[13:40] But I often think that there's a lot of young people who are politically active now who look back at things and go, why did you guys think this was so great? Like when you look back at an Obama or even you look back at a Clinton, why did you think this was so great? But it's out of context. It's relative to what else was going on at the time.

Speaker 3:
[13:59] Yeah.

Speaker 2:
[14:00] People forget that all the time.

Speaker 1:
[14:02] Especially at the presidential level. Because at the presidential level, I would love to get somebody like a Mamdani at the presidential. I mean, we had a chance with Bernie. I mean, that's what Mamdani is. But it didn't get done because of the Democratic establishment more than likely.

Speaker 3:
[14:19] Kills me. If Bernie is like, I was just saying to Laura the other day, if Bernie was like six years younger right now, that's it. Honestly, if he was in his mid-70s, I think you could run him. He's literally in his 80s.

Speaker 1:
[14:32] But there's another piece of this. When you look at Bernie, remember Bernie is Jewish. We've never had a Jewish president. We just got our first, our second Catholic president was Biden after Kennedy. I don't think people really, and so when you see all the religious goings on being discussed right now from Christian nationalism, verse Catholicism, Judaism, all of it, that stuff comes into play on a national level.

Speaker 3:
[15:00] Yeah, true.

Speaker 1:
[15:02] And they tried to, just because Barack has a Arabic name, but is Christian, they tried to call him a Muslim.

Speaker 3:
[15:12] Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2:
[15:12] They always bring up Hussein.

Speaker 1:
[15:15] Oh, they loved throwing that Hussein in there.

Speaker 3:
[15:16] Well, that's Trump's thing. Trump went, Trump's gone hard with the Hussein. It's insane how much he says it. It's actually, and it doesn't work. No matter how much he says Barack Hussein Obama over and over, like, bro, you're not convincing people he's a terrorist. We know what you're trying to do. We think if you think if you say Hussein over and over again, they'll be like, yo, is he Saddam Hussein? I don't think he's still more popular than you, buddy. It ain't gonna happen.

Speaker 1:
[15:43] Did we send over the CNN clip that Laura sent? Did that get placed in today?

Speaker 2:
[15:48] He literally asked me, do you want it? I was like, no, we'll pass it. It's fine.

Speaker 1:
[15:51] About the lawsuit that the Department of Justice has against the Southern Poverty Law Center?

Speaker 3:
[15:56] I saw, I just saw the clip, yeah.

Speaker 1:
[15:58] Well, it's going to probably get on your algo a little bit more today. It's a peculiar lawsuit. Maybe we'll get into it later on the show or maybe tomorrow. We'll get into a tomorrow show. But while we're on Trump, bring up clip 16 there, Resan. Are you guys falling for the Tucker Carlson 180 here?

Speaker 3:
[16:15] Laura is, she's in, she loves Tucker.

Speaker 1:
[16:17] What?

Speaker 3:
[16:18] I'm just kidding. No, no, but I'm watching it. I'm seeing it's big out here. He's going to run for president.

Speaker 1:
[16:25] Tucker Carlson, oh yeah.

Speaker 7:
[16:26] You and I and everyone else who supported him, you wrote speeches for him, I campaigned for him. I mean, we're implicated in this for sure. Yes. It's not enough to say, well, I changed my mind or like, oh, this is bad, I'm out. It's like in very small ways, but in real ways, you and me and millions of people like us are the reason this is happening right now. Yes. So, I do think it's like a moment to wrestle with our own consciences. You know, we'll be tormented by it for a long time. I will be. And I want to say I'm sorry for misleading people. It was not intentional. That's all I'll say.

Speaker 1:
[17:06] It was intentional. You're a liar, sir.

Speaker 2:
[17:08] Yeah, bro.

Speaker 1:
[17:09] You are a liar, sir.

Speaker 2:
[17:10] I am so sick of people sending me clips like that and Marjorie Taylor Greene. Guys, at the end of the day, they're still white supremacists.

Speaker 1:
[17:17] Well, and you have to remember that all of this happened with Trump because of Barack Obama. We talked about this. Tucker Carlson was going hard at Barack Obama.

Speaker 3:
[17:30] This was the early day. I'm trying to think of when his show, that was his-

Speaker 1:
[17:35] He was on, those were his Fox days.

Speaker 3:
[17:38] What was it called? Crossfire?

Speaker 1:
[17:40] I don't remember what the show was called.

Speaker 3:
[17:41] What?

Speaker 1:
[17:42] No, that's CNN.

Speaker 3:
[17:42] What was his show? He wasn't on CNN?

Speaker 1:
[17:44] He was before.

Speaker 3:
[17:46] Yeah, before. Right. First, he was on CNN, Ebro, on Crossfire. I think that's the beginning of Obama administration. Or was it even before that? Like 20 years ago. And when he was the bowtied nerd fighting with the so-called Democrat, and the two of them would argue with each other. That was the beginning. That's why y'all are too young to remember. It wasn't that long ago that Tucker Carlson just was the Republican half of the Democrat and Republican show where they argue with each other like Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless, but of politics. And then he's going further and further and further right. And now he's doing this weird grift where he made you go all the way to Trump, and now he's trying to come back and be like, no, but I'm not Trump. I'm anti-Israel. That's my...

Speaker 1:
[18:30] Now does his father's under-adv people have the right to change, like we said in the beginning with academics and Kendrick? Academics is love for Kendrick and him flip-flopping to Drake now.

Speaker 3:
[18:41] If that's what you choose to believe.

Speaker 2:
[18:43] Yeah, because I know I don't believe any of these people.

Speaker 1:
[18:46] Well, so in 2023, Tucker Carlson, after leaving Fox News, interviewed Larry Sinclair. Sinclair alleged that he had a drug-fueled sexual encounters with Barack Obama in 1999.

Speaker 3:
[18:58] Oh, I remember that. I remember that story. Of course I do.

Speaker 1:
[19:00] The interview was widely criticized as ridiculous and embarrassing.

Speaker 3:
[19:03] I remember it.

Speaker 1:
[19:05] Even Elon Musk questioned the validity of the claim.

Speaker 3:
[19:10] Everyone did. It was the most absurd claim of all time. It wasn't even remotely believable.

Speaker 1:
[19:18] Tucker Carlson came after Barack and Michelle's marriage. Yes. Just as recently as 2025.

Speaker 3:
[19:24] Oh.

Speaker 1:
[19:25] Disparaging remarks about calling it miserable and describing Michelle Obama as a freak show. This is Tucker Carlson.

Speaker 3:
[19:33] That's an interesting way to describe the first show.

Speaker 1:
[19:34] Along with her husband wrecking our society.

Speaker 3:
[19:37] Oh.

Speaker 2:
[19:37] Right, right, right. Okay.

Speaker 3:
[19:39] I saw an interesting video recently with Mehdi Hassan arguing with that other guy. You know the other guy who's Mehdi Hassan Ajaisque? He's that other dude.

Speaker 1:
[19:50] Kassim?

Speaker 3:
[19:52] Is that his name?

Speaker 1:
[19:52] Kassim Rashid?

Speaker 3:
[19:53] The dude who goes on a lot of places and argues the, argues anti-Israel, like he's very pro-Palestine.

Speaker 1:
[20:00] I don't know.

Speaker 3:
[20:01] Anyways, I can't remember that guy's name. He does a lot of stuff. He goes on Piers Morgan, whatever. But Mehdi Hassan and him did a show together.

Speaker 1:
[20:08] Okay.

Speaker 3:
[20:09] And that guy said to Mehdi Hassan, and I wish I had the clip and could remember his name. If either of you could find it, it would be amazing. You'll know who I'm talking about when you see him. He said to Mehdi, he's like, yeah, I see that you're like you like don't like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens. And he was like, why not? And Mehdi Hassan's like, because they're terrible. And just because they found themselves on the right side of the Israel-Palestine issue does not mean that they're people that we need to consider on the right side of everything because they're not.

Speaker 1:
[20:41] Right.

Speaker 3:
[20:42] And it's crazy, you know, my dad used to have this phrase that may have lost him a job before. Israel-Furster. That was the phrase he gave to people who he viewed as seeing Israel ahead of everything else, including the US. But now these people like Tucker Carlson, they're almost becoming like anti-Israel-Fursters. Like that is their be-all end-all issue. And there are people who will follow them only if you are on that issue on the same side as them. Yes. So because you're as angry as you are about the genocide, or you hate the Israeli government as much, whatever the reasoning is for you, you will give someone a pass for every other awful take they have as long as they hate Israel. That is not smart. That is not a smart way to govern yourself.

Speaker 1:
[21:32] A single-issue person is always a little bit, you know.

Speaker 3:
[21:37] A single-issue person about an issue that is, A, frankly very easy to agree on at this point if you have eyes and can see, right? So more and more people are seeing that issue the right way every single day. And it's also an issue that's not here. So a lot of times in the case of Tucker Carlson, you're like, oh, I like that he's on the right side of Israel-Palestine. Have you listened to anything else to say about people of color in America?

Speaker 1:
[22:03] Black people specifically.

Speaker 2:
[22:04] Yes.

Speaker 3:
[22:05] You don't care about that at all. You're just going with, okay.

Speaker 2:
[22:08] Our women's rights, I like less immigration, let's go.

Speaker 3:
[22:10] He's hard. LGBTQ, any issue, he's been bad on all of it. And he is using this as a way to turn people. It is working.

Speaker 2:
[22:19] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[22:20] I mean, we are seeing it.

Speaker 1:
[22:21] Well, and in some regard, this is controlled opposition.

Speaker 3:
[22:25] You said that a couple of weeks ago.

Speaker 1:
[22:27] Because it's not as if he's going to ever, he said he's going to be tormented, Tucker Carlson did. Tormented forever about his support for.

Speaker 3:
[22:35] Well, it's a great line.

Speaker 1:
[22:36] Donald Trump. But are you tormented enough to examine the reason that you and other supported Donald Trump is because you were pissed about a black president, a Democratic candidate that was a one, two Democratic candidates that were women, one was black, right? Did that torment you enough?

Speaker 3:
[22:56] Torment?

Speaker 1:
[22:57] To actually look yourself in the mirror and understand that that's you signed up for the person we have now. We all knew. Matter of fact, in that interview or that conversation that Tucker Carlson's having, they admit knowing that he had character flaws, that they saw the character flaws. And he was like, but sometimes people perform above, better than their character flaws when they get opportunities. How come I knew, how come so many people knew that this was going to be terrible?

Speaker 3:
[23:28] But they proudly were Trump supporters because they knew what he stood for at the core, what his people stood for at the core.

Speaker 1:
[23:36] Yeah, white supremacy.

Speaker 3:
[23:37] And he was-

Speaker 1:
[23:37] Project 2025.

Speaker 3:
[23:39] And he's all- He's all for that.

Speaker 1:
[23:40] That's right.

Speaker 3:
[23:42] He now has seen the Israel issue as a way to distance himself, win over his own people. I'm telling you, he has his own political aspirations. This is all just a play for him.

Speaker 1:
[23:57] Well, no, and I believe you, I think I'm just making sure that I put a flag in the ground, that this is once again a ruse, right? The controlled opposition, the reason I keep bringing that up is because-

Speaker 3:
[24:10] I don't understand the phrasing of it in this case. Controlled opposition to who? To Trump?

Speaker 1:
[24:14] For the Republican Party.

Speaker 3:
[24:16] Within their own?

Speaker 1:
[24:17] Well, within their own. Meaning we'll attack ourselves.

Speaker 3:
[24:19] But you'll stay here.

Speaker 1:
[24:20] But we're still going to make sure we stay in this zone.

Speaker 3:
[24:23] Right. And there are people maybe thinking, we got to get out of this Trump thing at some point.

Speaker 1:
[24:27] Yeah, at some point, right now.

Speaker 3:
[24:30] Or now.

Speaker 1:
[24:30] The NRA was like, they were as an NRA convention, it was video floating around of people at an NRA convention and people with the NRA saying this Trump thing is terrible.

Speaker 3:
[24:41] Well, remember that the NRA came out against what happened in Minneapolis though. They said you should not be able to attack protestors who legally have a gun in their holster. And they would not back down off of that. They tried to villainize Alex Preddy and they're like, no, Alex Preddy is who we literally defend. That's who they defend. So the NRA didn't back off that at all.

Speaker 2:
[25:04] I'm so surprised because they never say anything about anything.

Speaker 3:
[25:07] But remember, they're not, the NRA is not political, really. They are guns. They are about that.

Speaker 1:
[25:14] And it just so happened that the gun obsession aligned with the Republicans for a while. And now it's...

Speaker 3:
[25:20] In that moment.

Speaker 1:
[25:21] In that moment.

Speaker 3:
[25:22] It didn't align with the Republicans. If the Democrats were pro guns, they'd be with Democrats.

Speaker 1:
[25:27] Well, the Democrats are not anti...

Speaker 3:
[25:30] Well, in their eyes, they are, though, because they want any sort of regulation that slows down buying guns. So that's not...

Speaker 1:
[25:37] But that's not anti-gun.

Speaker 2:
[25:38] I don't think that's considered anti, but it's a song.

Speaker 1:
[25:40] No, we know that, but the narrative for people gun, you know, selling mass amounts of...

Speaker 3:
[25:44] They don't like that.

Speaker 1:
[25:46] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[25:46] But that means that so they're off of Trump altogether?

Speaker 1:
[25:49] Well, that's what this clip seemed to say. I don't know if the entire organization is or everybody in the organization, but that's what the narrative shaping seems to be right now, or headed in that direction. And there's a lot of that conversation. Oh, you sent the video over from the NRA? Convention? I don't think he hasn't prepared yet, Lou. Listen, anything in the super chat there, Rosenberg? You got it open on the iGrad?

Speaker 3:
[26:14] I do have it open. Let me see. Chat filter.

Speaker 1:
[26:17] Make sure you like and subscribe and share and all the things. We love your feedback, by the way.

Speaker 3:
[26:22] We do. Well, you know Moreno, the man's always coming through.

Speaker 1:
[26:25] Shout out to Moreno, the man.

Speaker 3:
[26:26] Ebro, hit yourself with the button, because I've heard more about you getting your news info from 1010 wins than what inspired you into cycling and the benefits you've gotten from it.

Speaker 1:
[26:36] Congratulations. You played yourself.

Speaker 3:
[26:39] Didn't we? We did an episode about that.

Speaker 1:
[26:40] I talked about cycling. How much you guys want me to talk about cycling?

Speaker 3:
[26:43] I know.

Speaker 1:
[26:43] And you guys act like I'm a pro cyclist. Like, I'm not still out here struggling. Like, I'm really, I can actually really give you, like, get yourself a bike and start. That's what, you know what I mean?

Speaker 3:
[26:55] The gentleman I was talking about who was doing the conversation with Mehdi Hassan was Bassem Youssef.

Speaker 1:
[27:01] Okay.

Speaker 3:
[27:02] That's who was having the argument. He's a lot of, he's a comedian, but he's been very outspoken.

Speaker 1:
[27:06] Oh, yes, yes, yes. I've seen him.

Speaker 3:
[27:07] But I've never, you know when you have a moment when you're like, you see someone outclassed, when he was next to Mehdi, who's the real deal?

Speaker 1:
[27:16] Well, Mehdi's an actual, I think, professional debater as well.

Speaker 3:
[27:20] Yes, yes. He's a journalist and literally wrote a book on debating. Like, he's not really beatable in the debate. So when you see someone like, why don't you like Candace Owens? Like, to Mehdi Hassan, I was like, oh, this is...

Speaker 1:
[27:30] Well, I think the guy was, he's being funny though, too, right? In some way, too.

Speaker 3:
[27:33] He's kind of...

Speaker 1:
[27:34] Probably, probably a little bit. I think he's an actor-comedian.

Speaker 3:
[27:37] Yeah, he's probably being a little bit funny.

Speaker 1:
[27:38] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[27:40] CellX23 is always there. He said, Pete, did Oba know Brock was passing the torch? That match really caught me by surprise. And Brock put up the X2. Love y'all. I don't know what... Brock essentially lost to Oba Femi.

Speaker 1:
[27:56] So I saw Brock taking his shoes off and crying.

Speaker 3:
[28:00] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[28:00] I didn't know what had taken place.

Speaker 3:
[28:01] So that is seemingly Brock Lesnar retiring. I believe it was the end. He walked up the ramp. All the fans cheered him. He like high-fived everyone, which is not a thing he does. He cried like hugging Paul Heyman in the ring. I believe it was the end. And it was awesome. It was an incredible moment.

Speaker 2:
[28:19] So when will you actually know? Like, this is it.

Speaker 3:
[28:21] If he never comes back. That's it. That's the beauty of wrestling. I mean, listen, SummerSlam's in Minneapolis, where he's from. I suppose there's a world in which he comes back and really ends it there. But it seemed like he's I don't see how it could be better than that. To me, there's no way Brock retiring could be any better than that moment, especially to Oba, who I believe has the highest ceiling of anyone in WWE. It's Oba is a different thing. We got to get him in here sometime soon. He is a special.

Speaker 1:
[28:50] Will he fit in the room?

Speaker 3:
[28:51] Yeah, he'll fit in the room.

Speaker 1:
[28:54] I mean, we have a pretty brawling studio, but I mean, this guy's.

Speaker 3:
[28:57] But we got to treat him right. We got to make some proper jollof rice. We got to do something right.

Speaker 1:
[29:01] We're not making jollof rice. That's not what we'll order from someone who does this. What you don't want to do is that.

Speaker 3:
[29:08] We make an Nigerian man jollof.

Speaker 1:
[29:10] You don't want to do that.

Speaker 3:
[29:11] No, I guess that won't go well. Maybe you should ask him to bring some.

Speaker 1:
[29:15] That would be great and I'm into this.

Speaker 3:
[29:18] JW Always Around. JW. Tatum Miller, What Up? And Celex23 said, Mamdani is really daredevil. They look like twins.

Speaker 2:
[29:29] A little bit. Okay. All right. All right. Oh, Jace. Oh, Rosenberg, shout out to Mona Lisa. Mona Lisa said, can I get a shot of my dog, Uno, past that's way over the weekend. Sending you a big hug, Mona Lisa. Yeah, we all been there.

Speaker 3:
[29:44] I'm sorry to hear that.

Speaker 2:
[29:45] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[29:46] That's a real bummer.

Speaker 2:
[29:47] Sending you love.

Speaker 3:
[29:48] Since we just brought up wrestling real quick, can you get me my CM Punk clip real quick? This is a big thing that's been moving around since WrestleMania, Ebro. I think you'll appreciate this. We stayed at the MGM Grand.

Speaker 1:
[29:59] Okay.

Speaker 3:
[30:00] And fans became aware of that. And every time people would come back to the MGM Grand, there would be just like a certain level of chaos in the lobby.

Speaker 1:
[30:11] That's the last time they're doing that.

Speaker 3:
[30:12] And well, especially after this clip. Take a look. That's Bayley and AJ Lee, CM Punk's wife being hugged by Bayley.

Speaker 6:
[30:44] Now, hang on.

Speaker 1:
[30:47] I like what Sia Punk did. I want to establish something. However, she said stop filming and put her hand up.

Speaker 3:
[30:55] Yes.

Speaker 1:
[30:56] Okay. That was kind of like the only warning to Gaga.

Speaker 3:
[30:59] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[30:59] Pretty much. That escalated really quickly.

Speaker 3:
[31:06] From your filming to hey, keep with that tab.

Speaker 1:
[31:08] Filming, hey, no filming. Camera goes down. Camera had proceeded down.

Speaker 3:
[31:12] Still filming, though.

Speaker 1:
[31:13] Yes.

Speaker 3:
[31:13] But on the way down.

Speaker 1:
[31:14] But proceeded down. And then...

Speaker 3:
[31:16] Punk came through with the slap.

Speaker 1:
[31:18] Which I like. However...

Speaker 3:
[31:21] It could be a...

Speaker 1:
[31:24] Congratulations. You played yourself.

Speaker 3:
[31:26] It could be. I think the guy has come out and said he's not going to press charges. He said he just wants an apology. I would say... Listen. I know Punk pretty well. I would say don't hold your breath for the apology. Like you had a camera in his wife's face. I don't know that he's going to think...

Speaker 2:
[31:45] I know.

Speaker 3:
[31:46] He owes you an apology.

Speaker 1:
[31:47] Well, so I guess here's what I'm struggling with. Y'all are basically in a public place.

Speaker 3:
[31:53] That's the issue.

Speaker 1:
[31:55] And the whole wrestling fandom thing has encouraged this sort of fan interaction in some ways, right? Showing up for autographs, taking photos, taking videos, carrying signs. Like this kind of rabid fandom.

Speaker 3:
[32:11] It's a blurry one.

Speaker 1:
[32:13] Isn't that a part of it?

Speaker 3:
[32:14] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[32:14] So if I'm a fan, if I'm a fan enough to care about CM Punk's wife and her...

Speaker 3:
[32:21] Well, they're both stars, though. His wife had a match at WrestleMania.

Speaker 1:
[32:24] Yeah, two stars hugging in a hallway, and I get that close proximity. Why are you being mean to me?

Speaker 3:
[32:31] Well, yes. I don't disagree. I think all of that's on the table.

Speaker 1:
[32:35] And now, and I, as someone who gets a camera put in their face from time to time, and asked to take photos at times that are inopportune, it is annoying and frustrating. But it's also kind of like...

Speaker 3:
[32:48] You're signing up for it. Just what's...

Speaker 1:
[32:49] Part of the gig. I just think that that escalated quickly. It didn't look like the guy with the camera was like, nah, I'ma film.

Speaker 3:
[32:56] No, he wasn't dangerous, I'm sure. And I'm sure if Punk had walked up and said, if Punk had hit that guy the way Jay-Z hit me, backstage at Glow in the Dark when I was filming him and Beyoncé, and he went like this to me... And I was just like... And this was long, this was 20 years ago. But I'm sure that would have worked.

Speaker 1:
[33:16] Or just hit him with it, yo chill, chill, chill.

Speaker 3:
[33:17] If Punk had been like, hey, hey, let's not film right now. Yes, I think that's probably fair. I think Punk probably might... He might agree with that. The one thing I'd say that's weird is, I mean... The lack of security in those elevator areas was crazy.

Speaker 2:
[33:35] Absolutely.

Speaker 3:
[33:36] The MGM would have like one person maybe floating around. The night after WrestleMania, they shouldn't have let anyone in those areas at all without showing their room key. And then there should have been security being like, if you're in this area, you gotta be going to your room or you can't be here.

Speaker 2:
[33:51] I've been in situations where that exact scenario took place. So why didn't they do it there?

Speaker 1:
[33:56] I've been at situations that are much less chocked full of fans and celebs where you can't get into the elevator banquet.

Speaker 3:
[34:06] Yeah. Well, I did see a person at some point asking, but they just weren't doing it assertively or effectively.

Speaker 1:
[34:14] All I'm saying is...

Speaker 3:
[34:15] But also, here's the one that's irritating about the wrestling fans. And by the way, they are generally sweet and generally, but I would say this is very accurate, not dangerous feeling, okay? This is much closer to a Comic Con crowd than some sort of rowdy sports crowd, okay? Like they are nerdy, nice people for the most part, even if awkward. And I took, and I am no AJ Lee, and I took my share of pictures in that lobby and signed stuff and met a million people and they were all generally sweet. However, WWE superstars give more access than anyone. They were at the Convention Center every day all weekend long. Granted, you have to pay for the most part, not always. Signing pictures, signing pictures, the hotel is a lot, man, and I just, there were people out there at 2 a.m. still in the lobby.

Speaker 1:
[35:11] By the way, two or three things can be true. All of this can be true. You know what I mean? And CM Punk likely won't apologize, like you said, I don't know him like you, but based on his character, I doesn't...

Speaker 3:
[35:24] He doesn't give apology. He doesn't give apology.

Speaker 1:
[35:26] You know what I'm saying? Plus, that goes against the brand. It goes against the brand.

Speaker 3:
[35:29] No, he's a man of principle, not like me, a spineless creep.

Speaker 1:
[35:32] You know what I mean? And by the way, if he just wants to say, listen man, the camera was in my wife's face. I saw that she didn't like it. That's how I reacted.

Speaker 3:
[35:38] Right.

Speaker 1:
[35:41] Nobody got hurt. See you at the next match.

Speaker 2:
[35:42] Yeah. After I heard her telling you to stop filming.

Speaker 3:
[35:46] Yeah. And you were still... People are just weird, bro. Just don't be so weird. I get it. You want to see them. It's super exciting. I get it. I do. They're amazing. But relax.

Speaker 1:
[35:55] Laura, you ready?

Speaker 2:
[35:56] Yeah. Let's do it. Alright. Well, let's kick things off with some positive news. Brianna graced the cover of W Magazine. And at just seven months old, Rocky Irish Myers is also with her. Look at how cute this little girl is.

Speaker 3:
[36:22] Which one's that?

Speaker 2:
[36:23] This is their daughter.

Speaker 3:
[36:24] Baby two?

Speaker 2:
[36:25] This is three.

Speaker 1:
[36:26] Three.

Speaker 3:
[36:26] That's baby three.

Speaker 1:
[36:27] Yes. This is the new baby.

Speaker 2:
[36:28] This is the last one, the new one, yes. Her name is Rocky. Look at those cheeks just dripping on the side.

Speaker 3:
[36:35] So cute.

Speaker 2:
[36:37] So freaking cute.

Speaker 1:
[36:38] Congrats, RiRi.

Speaker 2:
[36:39] Yeah, man.

Speaker 1:
[36:40] Congrats, Rocky too.

Speaker 3:
[36:41] I can't believe they had three already.

Speaker 2:
[36:42] I know.

Speaker 3:
[36:43] That was so, that was so fast.

Speaker 1:
[36:45] Over what, five years?

Speaker 3:
[36:48] The oldest isn't five.

Speaker 2:
[36:51] I don't know.

Speaker 3:
[36:51] I don't think the oldest is five.

Speaker 1:
[36:53] Okay, four.

Speaker 2:
[36:54] Back to back to back.

Speaker 1:
[36:55] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[36:56] Back to back to back. Yes.

Speaker 1:
[36:58] Three. Three in three years.

Speaker 3:
[37:00] It's crazy. And they may not be done. Who knows?

Speaker 1:
[37:03] She said somewhere, I remember she wanted five.

Speaker 2:
[37:07] Oh, really? She put out a number?

Speaker 1:
[37:08] I remember putting out a number.

Speaker 3:
[37:10] So we got May 2022, August 2023, September 2025.

Speaker 2:
[37:16] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[37:18] Back to back.

Speaker 3:
[37:18] I assume RiRi is a good pregnant, like that she doesn't hate. She obviously must not hate pregnant women.

Speaker 1:
[37:25] I'm sure. You know, some women love love love.

Speaker 2:
[37:27] I was discussing this with a couple of my girlfriends. They all loved it. I'm looking at them like-

Speaker 1:
[37:31] Jazz loved it.

Speaker 2:
[37:32] I hated it.

Speaker 7:
[37:33] It was terrible.

Speaker 3:
[37:35] Everyone's experience is different. It's crazy. She has to be in the camp of, this is dope. Let's run it back.

Speaker 2:
[37:40] God bless her. I'm sure. Well, I don't know anything. I'm just assuming.

Speaker 1:
[37:44] And sometimes people have like the rough one and then the second one is smooth and then that sets up the third because the rough one was kind of like, yo, it's bad, but I really want to have another one. Let's have another one.

Speaker 3:
[37:55] Oh, wow.

Speaker 1:
[37:55] This second one. Some people's other way.

Speaker 3:
[37:57] And so the other way.

Speaker 1:
[37:58] Some people's other first one was easy.

Speaker 3:
[37:59] They're like, let's run this back. And they're like, oh my God.

Speaker 2:
[38:04] Mine was horrible. I stood right. That's it. One and done.

Speaker 3:
[38:07] You're like, this is enough.

Speaker 2:
[38:08] One and done.

Speaker 3:
[38:09] I get it.

Speaker 2:
[38:09] Yeah. Yeah. God bless them, though. They seem super happy and the kids are gorgeous. In other news, Kanye West was spotted leaving a Jewish human rights center.

Speaker 3:
[38:18] Of course. Where else would he be?

Speaker 2:
[38:19] Yes. Obviously, TMZ was outside. Everybody's trying to get.

Speaker 3:
[38:22] It's interesting. How do they know? TMZ just waits at the Jewish center?

Speaker 1:
[38:25] It's my sentiments exactly.

Speaker 3:
[38:28] TMZ is always at the Jewish center, is hanging out. Harvey Levin.

Speaker 1:
[38:31] You know me, I got a promo radar. You know what I mean? My alarm bells go off. When I'm like, really, bro?

Speaker 3:
[38:40] I got to tell you, and this will get clipped and mistake in the wrong way because I'm not saying Kanye is unforgivable and I hate Kanye. It's not true. I don't. Even though I was incredibly disturbed and upset by things he's said and done. This ain't going to do it for me, though, bro. Okay, but going to Jewish centers doesn't mean absolutely respectfully.

Speaker 1:
[39:00] Well, no, how about this? How about this? No, no, no, guys, that's a weird thing. How about we don't know this information? How about TMZ wasn't there? How about you went to maybe you did go with some friends and meet and have a discussion or whatever took place and you wanted to learn? Let's say all of that is true. Okay. Why is it on TMZ? That's my biggest problem. You know why? I know why. We know why. I'm saying for whoever's watching, let's not do the whole marketing of the thing.

Speaker 3:
[39:31] It's nonsense. That's the nonsense of it.

Speaker 2:
[39:33] Because if it's not on video, it didn't happen.

Speaker 1:
[39:36] No, no, no. How about just give it time? How about, look, I've thought that the way he's handled these show cancellations and countries not wanting him there has been phenomenal.

Speaker 3:
[39:49] Me too. I was good with that. Hey, I get it.

Speaker 1:
[39:51] I get it. I got a lot of work to do. I'll keep trying.

Speaker 3:
[39:54] That you do that for a few years where we hear that instead of you throwing a tantrum, you accept the repercussions of your actions. And then over time, you know, you start to hear a conversation because eventually he will speak again. And you start to hear things from him that sound sincere. To me, that would go so much further than I see him walking out of a Jew… I'm Jewish. You're not going to see me walking out of a Jewish center. Like, what does that mean? You have to go to a Jewish center to learn that Hitler was bad? Like, what are they teaching you?

Speaker 1:
[40:25] Well, I don't know. And that's why I went with maybe he was meeting with friends at the Jewish center.

Speaker 3:
[40:29] How about Starbucks?

Speaker 1:
[40:30] What are we doing now? Now, to be fair, there is a contingent of Jewish individuals that absolutely want to invite you to places to learn about things. Like, that's a thing. You should come here. Come to this meeting. You know, we're having a Holocaust fundraiser. There's a thing for the thing thing. There's a lot of things.

Speaker 3:
[40:52] Well, that that that is a thing that might make sense as someone who all I'm saying is, is we don't know why he was there. You're right.

Speaker 1:
[40:59] That's all.

Speaker 3:
[41:00] You know what? Fair.

Speaker 1:
[41:03] I just know that TMZ knowing about it is the part that we need to pay attention to. Why did they know?

Speaker 3:
[41:11] Why did they know? Who told them that he would be coming from the Jewish center? It just, I just don't, it just like, it just ends up coming off as so obviously what it's supposed to be.

Speaker 1:
[41:23] It's narrative shaping. It's marketing.

Speaker 3:
[41:26] I just, it doesn't hit me right.

Speaker 2:
[41:28] This is some positive news. Cardi B's The Little Miss Drama Tour grossed over 70 million. So she was celebrating. It's the North American Tour. She was like, man, I'm just so happy. What an accomplishment. I think we're all so proud of her. That's so dope.

Speaker 3:
[41:43] Ebro, you gonna hit her up and get her on the show? I think we should have a Cardi B Little Miss Drama American leg celebration. I don't know Cardi like that.

Speaker 1:
[41:52] You don't?

Speaker 3:
[41:52] Never been in contact with Cardi. Only see her when she comes here.

Speaker 1:
[41:55] Laura's in contact with the whole team right now.

Speaker 2:
[41:57] Yeah, because they're gonna do something special for the EL Army. But because she's so popular, the things that I'm working on are gonna take a little bit of time. So I'm thinking around June.

Speaker 3:
[42:08] All right. I don't understand what you guys are talking about.

Speaker 2:
[42:09] But we still need Cardi, okay?

Speaker 3:
[42:11] Yeah, that doesn't make any sense.

Speaker 1:
[42:13] Maybe that's part of the deal is all I'm saying.

Speaker 2:
[42:15] Yes, yes, yes. It makes sense.

Speaker 1:
[42:16] She comes in some way, shape, or form and kick off the promo.

Speaker 2:
[42:19] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[42:19] But isn't she going out on an international leg of this tour? I don't know. Or was that?

Speaker 1:
[42:24] Is there international dates for Cardi B?

Speaker 2:
[42:26] I haven't seen anything.

Speaker 3:
[42:28] Because that closeout with Missy was fire.

Speaker 2:
[42:32] That was so dope.

Speaker 3:
[42:33] Man, I don't want to say who, but there are certain people who that tour must have made them sick. Boy, sitting home every night watching the universal praise and celebration as every female legend in hip hop came out and celebrated her.

Speaker 2:
[42:50] Producer Grove said she was hitting Canada. Okay.

Speaker 3:
[42:54] 30 in Canada.

Speaker 2:
[42:55] 30 in Canada.

Speaker 1:
[42:57] But we don't have like a Europe or View or anything like that for Cardi B.

Speaker 3:
[43:01] The Canadian dates already happened.

Speaker 2:
[43:03] Oh, no. Okay. Oh, Canadian dates already happened. So I don't know. So she hasn't announced it yet. So let's see.

Speaker 3:
[43:10] But seriously, I just don't think anyone knew. No matter how big a fan you were of Cardi, you may have not known that she had that level of tour in her. You know what I mean? To perform on that level. We've never seen that. I've seen Cardi perform like a club performer before.

Speaker 2:
[43:24] Sure.

Speaker 3:
[43:24] Never knew she had what she had.

Speaker 1:
[43:25] You saw her at Summer Jam.

Speaker 2:
[43:26] And then at Summer Jam.

Speaker 3:
[43:27] Summer Jam wasn't like that.

Speaker 1:
[43:29] No, Summer Jam, she had full choreo, multiple times. Full choreo, 30-minute set, 40-minute set. I mean, I only know because I booked it. But it was like she was at rehearsal nights before.

Speaker 3:
[43:41] I believe you.

Speaker 1:
[43:42] You know what I mean? Like really willing to do the work. And then when you look at the amount of songs and hits.

Speaker 3:
[43:49] But since then, think about how much more she's adding.

Speaker 1:
[43:51] That's what I mean. So I guess in my brain, I was like, yeah, of course, you know, but if you haven't been paying attention.

Speaker 3:
[43:56] But no, not paying attention. You literally booked the show and that was a single. Those are one-offs in New York. She just did the entire country every night, multiple nights in one city.

Speaker 1:
[44:04] Are you saying the ability to do all the cities or the material to do the stage?

Speaker 3:
[44:09] The material was never an issue. Cardi's had hits forever. I mean, to do that level of work, to where you really have a fully-formed tour that you're rocking every single night, I'm not saying I obviously was wrong, but I think my expectation would have been picturing her more like a rapper who can do club dates where they jump out and they're a fun performance, but you don't know how it translates to an arena tour like that. She was just impressive.

Speaker 1:
[44:34] I mean, it was great.

Speaker 3:
[44:35] Not a ton of people can do that, period. That's just-

Speaker 1:
[44:38] No, that's what you're saying is a fact, but I guess, yeah, I-

Speaker 3:
[44:40] You were close to it. I wasn't that close to it.

Speaker 1:
[44:42] Yeah, that's all.

Speaker 2:
[44:43] Yeah, and she put a lot of her own money into that, like the actual set. She was like, this is going to be fantastic. Well, she was focused.

Speaker 1:
[44:50] And that means of that 70 million, she got a lot of it because if she put up the money and fronted the cost-

Speaker 3:
[44:57] Well, I don't know if she fronted all the cost, right?

Speaker 1:
[44:59] Well, I mean, but all of it comes out of a budget, right? So if she's not paying, if somebody else is paying for the set, if somebody else is, but you have more skin in the game, you get more of a percentage of money that is grossed.

Speaker 3:
[45:11] Cardi, man, she rocks.

Speaker 1:
[45:14] Go ahead, Cardi.

Speaker 2:
[45:15] Anyway, that's the rundown.

Speaker 1:
[45:16] Hey, intro for the outro.

Speaker 2:
[45:23] What?

Speaker 1:
[45:26] We still cut up.

Speaker 4:
[45:28] Up, up, up, up, up, up, up.

Speaker 1:
[45:30] Now, Rosenberg, are you watching the NBA playoffs?

Speaker 3:
[45:33] Yeah, sure.

Speaker 1:
[45:33] What do you see?

Speaker 3:
[45:35] I'm seeing the Celtics suck last night.

Speaker 1:
[45:37] Okay.

Speaker 3:
[45:40] I'm seeing a lot. I'm seeing a bunch.

Speaker 1:
[45:41] How do you like this Lakers story?

Speaker 3:
[45:44] Listen, I, oh, yeah, and my wife is reminding me, Cardi had a baby three months before her tour. That's right. Which is pretty crazy. I love the idea of the Lakers going on a run, just because it would be super interesting.

Speaker 1:
[45:57] Yo, the numbers LeBron put up the other night without Luke on, didn't he have 28 assists, bro?

Speaker 5:
[46:03] It's 41 years old.

Speaker 3:
[46:05] First of all, they're up 2-0 on Houston, and they're the higher seed, but they're without Don Cich. So people didn't expect them to necessarily win both games at home.

Speaker 1:
[46:12] And without Austin.

Speaker 3:
[46:14] And Austin Reams.

Speaker 1:
[46:15] Austin, yeah.

Speaker 3:
[46:17] Last night, LeBron had 28-7 in another win. Yo, shout out to my guy Marcus Smart, who came up big last night. 25 points.

Speaker 1:
[46:28] Huge. Well, Marcus Smart, former Celtic.

Speaker 3:
[46:31] That's right. Former. That's.

Speaker 1:
[46:33] Former Celtic. I'm really a Celtics legend, kind of.

Speaker 3:
[46:35] Well, borderline. I mean, I love him.

Speaker 1:
[46:37] You wouldn't give him legend status? I love him.

Speaker 3:
[46:40] Zero.

Speaker 1:
[46:40] He never got the chip? No.

Speaker 3:
[46:42] We traded in the year before. We traded in the year before, which is heartbreaking. But listen, at least he has a song named after him on Real Late by Peter Rosenberg.

Speaker 1:
[46:50] There you go.

Speaker 3:
[46:50] I think that's got to be worse. Yo, him having a song, now that Stove God's become a guy, Marcus Smart should be kind of hyped that there's a song by Stove God named Marcus Smart.

Speaker 1:
[47:01] I think you need to remind people how early he was on Stove God.

Speaker 3:
[47:04] I was looking yesterday because, oh, I announced yesterday that I have a new show coming to Shade 45. That's right.

Speaker 1:
[47:11] You announced it here on this program?

Speaker 3:
[47:13] No, I didn't. I announced it on Sway after our show yesterday.

Speaker 1:
[47:16] After our show, yes.

Speaker 3:
[47:17] Yes, I was doing the business for Shade 45. So I announced that starting Thursday. My show Real Late is back Thursday nights, 10 Eastern on Shade 45. My first guest this Thursday is Stove God Cooks. When I looked at the last time I interviewed him, it was at my house in 2021.

Speaker 1:
[47:36] Oh, wow.

Speaker 3:
[47:37] Yeah, it's five years.

Speaker 1:
[47:38] Pandemic.

Speaker 3:
[47:39] Those five years went. Pandemic messed up time, guys.

Speaker 1:
[47:43] It was a time warp. It was a time warp.

Speaker 3:
[47:45] We are in a full on time warp.

Speaker 1:
[47:47] Well, let me ask you this. Did you talk to Stove God about this album?

Speaker 3:
[47:50] I'm talking on Thursday.

Speaker 1:
[47:51] No, but like...

Speaker 3:
[47:52] No, I haven't asked him anything. Saving it all for the air.

Speaker 1:
[47:56] Well, we need to know what's going on with the album.

Speaker 3:
[47:57] I'm going to find out on Thursday. That's why you have to tune in, Ebro. Didn't you just... Wait, hold on. You just interviewed him like three weeks ago.

Speaker 1:
[48:04] He didn't have any details on the album.

Speaker 3:
[48:06] He couldn't tell you anything.

Speaker 1:
[48:07] He gave me the date, but the date passed. That's the whole thing. The date came and went. The label apparently is not putting out the album. Then there was rumors on the Internet that like Swizz and Hove were trying to figure out his deal with... What's the label? What label is he on? Stove God.

Speaker 3:
[48:26] Well, prior to...

Speaker 1:
[48:27] No, he's still on...

Speaker 3:
[48:29] I don't know what his deal was.

Speaker 6:
[48:30] So they're trying to help him out.

Speaker 1:
[48:31] Yeah, but the...

Speaker 3:
[48:32] Baby Grant.

Speaker 1:
[48:33] Baby Grant.

Speaker 3:
[48:34] Oh, he's on Baby Grant. And there's a problem there. I know it didn't come out.

Speaker 1:
[48:37] They haven't put out the album.

Speaker 3:
[48:38] Well, I know the date passed. So what does that mean? And he hasn't given an answer yet.

Speaker 1:
[48:42] I don't know. No one knows what's going on with the Stove God album.

Speaker 3:
[48:45] So in other words, what it's sounding like is a lot of ears on Thursday night, 10 o'clock.

Speaker 1:
[48:49] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[48:49] That's what it sounds like. You better get an answer. And I haven't asked him anything yet. I just, honest, all that happened was I hit him up literally like two weeks after the Hot 97 thing happened. And I said, I'm working on my next situation. I would like for you to be like my first guest. And he was like, done. Tell me when and where. And that's happening Thursday. He just said, yes. So that's Thursday night.

Speaker 1:
[49:10] Nah, man.

Speaker 3:
[49:11] How do we get there? Oh, Marcus Smart.

Speaker 1:
[49:12] Marcus Smart, Soapbox. But so is that all that's going on in the playoffs? I haven't been paying attention.

Speaker 3:
[49:18] Lakers are up 2-0. I think Denver is 1-1. Is that right, Griff?

Speaker 1:
[49:21] Nicks are 1-1.

Speaker 3:
[49:23] Play tomorrow. Nicks are going to Atlanta.

Speaker 1:
[49:26] The way the Nicks lost to Atlanta the other night is crazy.

Speaker 3:
[49:29] They turned CJ McCollum into Trey Curry. I mean, listen, CJ McCollum is a nice player. But he was Trey Halliburton killing the Nicks on Sunday night or whatever that was, Monday night?

Speaker 1:
[49:42] Monday night.

Speaker 3:
[49:43] So Thursday, they're in Atlanta. Nicks cannot lose another game, though. Nicks can't go 6 with Atlanta. That's not the start you want. Although the Celtics now are going at least 5 with Philly, so.

Speaker 1:
[49:53] Well, the Nicks aren't the Celtics or aren't supposed to be.

Speaker 3:
[49:56] Correct. They are not. But there are a lot of high expectations for the Nicks.

Speaker 1:
[50:00] No, but that's what I mean. There aren't for the Celtics.

Speaker 3:
[50:03] But I feel like that's changed. Tatum is clearly back and looks fine to me.

Speaker 1:
[50:08] But it's still.

Speaker 3:
[50:09] So how do you not have high expectations?

Speaker 1:
[50:10] Yeah, but it just feels like it's still new.

Speaker 3:
[50:12] Like it's unfair almost.

Speaker 1:
[50:14] Yeah, like it's just new. I mean, the Nicks are supposed to have momentum here. The Nicks are supposed to deliver here. This is it.

Speaker 3:
[50:20] Well, this Kenny Loggins.

Speaker 1:
[50:22] Am I bugging?

Speaker 3:
[50:23] No. A lot of people feel that way.

Speaker 5:
[50:25] Also, Wemby, one defense player of the year, unanimous again.

Speaker 3:
[50:28] And Wemby.

Speaker 1:
[50:29] I'm fine with that.

Speaker 3:
[50:32] Wemby's the man. He couldn't play yesterday after he landed on his face. I saw that. He left the game and was concussed. So playoffs are going to be interesting, man.

Speaker 1:
[50:42] I like it. I like playoff basketball.

Speaker 3:
[50:44] Oh, by the way, Mets still have not won.

Speaker 1:
[50:46] Yo, the Mets, yo, Griff, yo Mets, bro. Yo, Laura, they've lost 12 games in a row. They was getting booed last night.

Speaker 2:
[50:53] He's like, don't even talk about it.

Speaker 3:
[50:55] No, you know they haven't won since Mamdani hugged Mr. Mets.

Speaker 1:
[50:58] Oh, no, no, no.

Speaker 3:
[51:03] I'm just saying what's happening in Mamdani stand.

Speaker 2:
[51:05] Don't make it a card.

Speaker 1:
[51:07] Yo, is that why his poll numbers are dropping? Mets fans are like, see, we never wanted this guy.

Speaker 2:
[51:15] Look at producer Griff.

Speaker 1:
[51:16] He's like, no. Mamdani is a Queens guy, man.

Speaker 3:
[51:19] He has to.

Speaker 1:
[51:20] He's a Mets fan, right? Mamdani is a Mets fan. Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[51:24] No, he is an actual Mets fan. You didn't see what happened. Do we not talk about Sid Rosenberg quitting the Mets?

Speaker 1:
[51:30] No.

Speaker 3:
[51:30] Oh my God. You didn't talk about that?

Speaker 1:
[51:32] Wait, who's Sid Rosenberg?

Speaker 3:
[51:33] We've talked about him before, man.

Speaker 1:
[51:35] That's a conservative- That's your conservative cousin.

Speaker 6:
[51:37] Yes.

Speaker 3:
[51:38] He's not my cousin. We're not related. He's a weird jacked up-

Speaker 6:
[51:42] Like red?

Speaker 3:
[51:44] Red, bald, muscle-bound, large Jewish man who's a right-wing talk show host.

Speaker 1:
[51:53] Okay.

Speaker 3:
[51:54] And the day after Mamdani hugged Mr. Met, this guy goes on social media and is like at 59 years old for the first time ever, I'm going to the Bronx, I'm now a Yankee fan. Oh, God.

Speaker 1:
[52:12] Well, look, the Yankees did have a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk.

Speaker 2:
[52:17] Never forget that.

Speaker 3:
[52:18] I think he knew he'd be received well there and he was. The Yankees received him quite well.

Speaker 1:
[52:23] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[52:23] They were happy to have Sid Rosenberg come over there. But can you imagine what a fraud you are to say you're leaving your team because Mamdani hugged the mascot?

Speaker 1:
[52:35] And his issue is that he doesn't like Mamdani because of his political values?

Speaker 3:
[52:41] Oh, no, no. He's a complete Islamophobe also.

Speaker 1:
[52:43] There you go. That's what I was trying to figure out.

Speaker 3:
[52:45] Oh, he's led some of the-

Speaker 1:
[52:47] So because a Muslim man hugged Mr. Met and that Muslim man also happens to be the mayor, I cannot be supportive of this team.

Speaker 3:
[52:54] Well, and because to people like Sid Rosenberg, Mamdani is a vicious anti-Semite according to people like him, all of it at- But don't- That's not the Islamophobia.

Speaker 1:
[53:06] No, no, no.

Speaker 3:
[53:07] It's political, I'm sure. Because of all of these things, the perfect storm, I like to sum it up with a thing called racism. He now has to leave the Mets and join the Yankees. Which also, this is a guy, Sid Rosenberg comes from sports. It just shows what a fraud you are. All of us root for teams in which our ownership has done things that we're like, I don't know, but it's your team. The mascot hugged, what do you want the Mr. Met to do? Give Mamdani the middle finger? It's a mascot. It's a walking baseball, bro. He's a walking baseball and his wife is a walking baseball with a wig, and you're mad that they were friendly to the mayors. Yo, go to the Yankees, buddy. Have a good time. Congratulations.

Speaker 1:
[53:52] You played yourself.

Speaker 3:
[53:53] What a joke. Don made me drive with this guy once. I did a whole ride. I drove him home once.

Speaker 5:
[54:01] Why?

Speaker 1:
[54:01] He's your cousin.

Speaker 3:
[54:02] No.

Speaker 5:
[54:03] People in the chat say brother.

Speaker 3:
[54:05] He's not my brother and he's not my cousin.

Speaker 2:
[54:08] No relation.

Speaker 3:
[54:09] Yeah. No. The only other Rosenberg that I'm down with now is Paul officially because I'm at Shade 45. Sid is a rep. Don knows Sid forever from radio.

Speaker 1:
[54:18] Okay.

Speaker 3:
[54:19] Don has a charity softball game every year. A few years ago, Sid and I both played in the game.

Speaker 2:
[54:25] Okay.

Speaker 3:
[54:26] And at the end, Don comes up to me and is like, Hey, Peter, you're going back to the city. I was like, yeah. He's like, any chance you could give Sid a ride?

Speaker 2:
[54:36] I was like, did he ask you in front of him?

Speaker 3:
[54:39] I don't remember who was in front, but it might have been. I know I was like, just yes. And then I have to tell you, we had a totally.

Speaker 1:
[54:44] That's it.

Speaker 3:
[54:46] That's not my cousin or my brother. We had a totally polite ride home. This was like four years ago.

Speaker 1:
[54:53] Good thing you didn't, you know, bring up anything Muslim.

Speaker 3:
[54:56] Bro, he's been he's been he's been horrible.

Speaker 1:
[54:59] Horrible.

Speaker 3:
[54:59] I've been disgusted by what he's been saying.

Speaker 1:
[55:01] If you had found out who your dad was, how you think that ride would have went?

Speaker 3:
[55:05] I don't think he's knowledgeable enough about the issue to know who my dad is.

Speaker 1:
[55:08] Really?

Speaker 3:
[55:09] No. A lot of these people who think they know about stuff don't. So they wouldn't even, he wouldn't even know what my dad does. That would be my guess. Although, my dad did do a big interview a couple of days ago for Zateo.

Speaker 1:
[55:21] Okay. That's where, you know, that's Mehdi Hassan's flagship.

Speaker 3:
[55:25] I know. I know. He did like a multi-hour interview. It's coming out at some point. I don't want to give the scoop, but it was a big APAC conversation or something. And at the end, he said something about my son being in media, and they guessed that it was me. And apparently, it was quite the commotion in the house when the staff of guys there who were all young realized who his son was, and they were all up on our stuff. And they were like, oh, can we see photos? They were looking at my Bar Mitzvah pictures. Oh, my God. But yeah, all listeners of the program.

Speaker 1:
[56:04] Shout to the listeners of the program and everybody over at Zateo.

Speaker 3:
[56:08] Yeah, they do a great job over there.

Speaker 1:
[56:09] You know what I mean?

Speaker 2:
[56:10] That's dope.

Speaker 1:
[56:10] Let's get to the gurus. Hey, yo, it's time for the gurus, Rosenberg. Laura, you know, you are a beautiful queen. Ebro, don't ever play yourself.

Speaker 2:
[56:19] And then, breathe out. The Original Gurus at gmail.com, theoriginalgurus at gmail.com, where the gurus unite.

Speaker 1:
[56:28] Shout to our guy Ron Stu out there. Oh, yay.

Speaker 3:
[56:32] What's up with Ron Stu?

Speaker 1:
[56:33] He just tuned in, Tex.

Speaker 3:
[56:34] Stu.

Speaker 1:
[56:34] Laughing, he said, you're going to continue this, huh? Until the Iceman coming. I'm excited about the Iceman, man.

Speaker 2:
[56:43] All right. Let's focus. Burn the sage, Ebro, and Rosenberg. Tell us who's out there, who's writing to us, who needs us.

Speaker 3:
[56:53] Theoriginalgurus at gmail.com. Send your emails today. All right, gurus, long time listener and still with you during the move. Love the new format, even though I'm listening to yesterday's podcast, because my commute time is from 6 to 7. But everything is great. One bit of critique, please fix those EQ and compression levels, because the volume on the Apple Podcast is all over the place. Some mics are louder than others, and it doesn't help if Rosenberg is streaming from his 2005 BlackBerry in a dilapidated building that he calls a kitchen, LOL, just kidding.

Speaker 1:
[57:31] Now that's his kitchen office. What did Drake say? Was it a kitchen office living room?

Speaker 3:
[57:35] Yeah, and he was right. And by the way, the funniest part of that whole thing is when you think about it, that was my big apartment. Now I moved to a place that's so small, I don't even have an office anymore. There's not even a kitchen living room office to have. Anyways, he said, speaking of my guy Rosenberg, always good to see a local moco boy come good. Silver Spring represent Parkway, Deli, Terps and all that. Yo, my guy, what up? Love Parkway. Okay, so here we go. I have a coworker whose body odor is what I'd call less than favorable. Yo, this guy.

Speaker 1:
[58:07] The body odor at work.

Speaker 3:
[58:10] This is a guy with words right here. A body odor being less than favorable is not what you want. Long story short, my guy smells like a swamp, like wet leaves after a summer rain on a hot day, just stewing, given off more funk than George Clinton. Sitting in his vicinity is a task to the highest order. I keep a fan blowing and sometimes it's not even facing me, just to create an invisible barrier between my nostrils and his stench. It's really bad and the whole company knows about it, but it still remains. Apparently, he's been told about the situation once in the past, but doesn't seem as if he's actively doing anything about it. And I really don't want to be the guy to tell him because he's a good dude. Cool to work with, funny, but also severely nose-deaf. That's not a thing, bro.

Speaker 1:
[58:58] Nose-deaf?

Speaker 3:
[58:58] No, I never. Yo, is that like most death? Nose-deaf. I was thinking of leaving an anonymous letter on his desk after hours so he can find it, but I'm at a loss here. Any advice? My nose and general well-being thanks you. Steven, photographer, videographer. Oh, with the 301 number, I was actually going to suggest exactly what he was thinking about doing.

Speaker 2:
[59:22] Me too, because especially if somebody already spoke to him and nothing has been done.

Speaker 3:
[59:27] What are you going to do?

Speaker 2:
[59:28] Yeah, I like the anonymous note. I make it a really sweet one. Hey, you're very loved around here. You're a great guy. The only thing is, it's like your body odor is becoming a problem. I would just, here are some products that I suggest.

Speaker 1:
[59:43] I was going to go with the products.

Speaker 2:
[59:45] A lot of people don't know about the antibacterial body soaps. So maybe like, here's some stuff that you can try.

Speaker 1:
[59:51] Antibacterial body soap, maybe an awesome, buying some old school Jocard Noir.

Speaker 2:
[59:58] No, because you know what? I'm scared. Don't hide it.

Speaker 1:
[60:01] Clean it. I mean, with the bacterial soap, for sure. You know, you're throwing that like a gift. And the note could be like, yo, we love you, man. We're not going to let you go out like this.

Speaker 3:
[60:13] Yeah.

Speaker 1:
[60:13] Yeah.

Speaker 3:
[60:14] Because that's the thing. It comes from love. We care about you.

Speaker 1:
[60:16] On some grown man-ish, we got to get your order together, Ma G.

Speaker 3:
[60:21] Order or odor?

Speaker 1:
[60:22] What did I say?

Speaker 3:
[60:22] Order.

Speaker 1:
[60:23] I meant odor.

Speaker 3:
[60:24] Got it.

Speaker 2:
[60:24] Do you think it's mean if he actually buys him the antibacterial soap and leaves it as a little gift?

Speaker 1:
[60:28] No, that's what I thought you meant.

Speaker 2:
[60:29] A little bag?

Speaker 1:
[60:30] No, I thought that's what you meant.

Speaker 2:
[60:31] I was just talking about a little note.

Speaker 1:
[60:32] Oh, no, I was going to put the bag together and leave it with the note. Like, yo, man, here's a gift, man.

Speaker 3:
[60:39] I'm trying to think of how, like, it would feel terrible.

Speaker 1:
[60:41] Yes, but he's already been told.

Speaker 2:
[60:43] I know that's the part because he's already been told and he's doing nothing about it.

Speaker 1:
[60:48] And by the way, a lot of people I've worked with people, we've all worked with people that, you know, are, um...

Speaker 3:
[60:56] Nose death?

Speaker 1:
[60:59] Yeah. Nasally challenged. They don't know what's going on with themselves. And, um, some of it comes from depression, man. Yeah. Some of it comes from some real deep, you know, inability to wake up in the morning and care enough about yourself to get it right. To get it right.

Speaker 3:
[61:19] Well, listen, I live for the funk. I die for the funk. But I think this is a good suggestion. The note and the gift bag, I don't hate.

Speaker 1:
[61:27] Yeah.

Speaker 2:
[61:27] But just make it a really, you know, a really nice note.

Speaker 3:
[61:31] What if you just sent it to his house, by the way, instead of leaving it at work? What if you just got the address and sent it?

Speaker 1:
[61:38] Yeah, that might, I don't know.

Speaker 2:
[61:39] Is that crossing the line a little bit? I don't know.

Speaker 3:
[61:41] I don't know. Leaving it at work, though, could be embarrassing if he feels like other people see it sitting on his desk. I don't know.

Speaker 2:
[61:45] So maybe you, okay, how about this? Get the gift bag, but you put it in another bag. Close it so when he opens it, the gift is in there in the note. That way, the entire world doesn't know there's a gift because imagine if everybody starts coming up to him, happy birthday.

Speaker 3:
[61:57] No, exactly.

Speaker 2:
[62:00] You don't want more attention. So I like that idea, Rosenberg. So get him the gift, write a really thoughtful, caring note, and hopefully the funk will be fixed. So save the groups.

Speaker 1:
[62:18] And maybe he was born in 1971.

Speaker 3:
[62:20] Yo, and he's the funky child?

Speaker 1:
[62:21] And the world witnessed the birth of the funky child. Shout out to Newark, New Jersey, man. They knew what it was.

Speaker 3:
[62:27] Facts.

Speaker 1:
[62:27] They knew about this guy from early.

Speaker 3:
[62:29] Keepers of the funk, right there.

Speaker 1:
[62:31] I get it for the funk. I got it for the funk. Oh, man, it was a great show today, boys and girls.
