Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh dissect Elon Musk's SNL controversy, debating NBC's corporate constraints versus internet freedom. They analyze gender hierarchies, citing studies on women's multitasking and IQ while discussing Caitlin Jenner's impact on transgender sports eligibility. The conversation shifts to Adele's weight loss backlash, Billie Eilish's Vogue cover, and Van Lathan's Oscar win amidst plagiarism accusations regarding "Two Distant Strangers." Finally, the hosts confront legal nuances of child pornography possession, consent definitions, and Liverpool fans' protests against Glazer ownership, ultimately questioning state sovereignty over cultural restrictions.

Shane's Muscle Car Context00:14:36
If your ancestors knew what good dick was, I would be better looking.
You show a little top of your titty and the whole world is having conversations about you.
Steph Curry by himself could beat in WMBC.
Go to Anthony Pizza.
The one is business.
What's up, everybody?
Welcome to Flagrant Sue.
It's your boy Sheltie.
I'm here with Akash Singh, Alex Media, Mark Gagnon.
We got the Truffle in the fucking building.
We got that colorblind bat Miles over there editing some shit.
He doesn't even get a mic.
Okay?
You don't get a mic, Miles, but you do have a name on the podcast.
We're here.
We're talking about whatever the fuck has happened this week.
Let's talk about the SNL situation.
I don't understand it.
I don't understand it.
I've been asking people about this for the last seven days.
Nobody can explain it to me.
What's the issue?
Why do they not like...
Apparently, some of the cast members don't want to perform on the show because Elon Musk is there because he's rich.
They're upset that he's rich.
Who do you work for?
Do you think the person you work for is that much less rich than Elon Musk?
The head of NBC Universal, who I'm pretty sure owns like GE or some shit like that.
Yeah, everybody works for billionaires.
Cut this shit out.
It's unbelievable.
You don't want to support billionaires.
Every single person with a job is working for a billionaire.
I prefer my billionaires to have visibility so they can have some level of accountability.
The guy who's the head of NBC, I don't know who the fuck he is.
He's doing whatever he wants on whatever Epstein's Island exists.
And none of us know his name, so we can't hold him accountable.
Yeah.
Give me that billionaire, Elon Musk, over that other guy that you never heard of.
Imagine being a comic that's like, I don't want to do jokes with that guy.
But what a monumental pussy, though.
Oh, God.
Yeah, dude.
But who is it?
It's the Bowen Yang.
Bowen Yang tweeted something, and then another guy tweeted something.
And I know Bowen's Yang's names because Stop Agent Hate, but I don't know the other guy's name because it's SNL.
So if you didn't get fired for SNL, I don't know who you are.
Yeah.
Do they fire the minorities?
No, they fired Shane.
They fired Shane.
That's why I know who Shane is.
Yeah, Shout out to Shane, who has by far the best sketch comedy show on the internet or TV.
Gilly and Keeves, go right now.
Everybody listening to this podcast right now, go to Google, YouTube, whatever the fuck you want, Gilly and Keeves, G-I-L-L-Y, and Keeves is K-E-E-V-E-S.
I'm telling you, it is the most unique, funny, beautifully produced.
It's not like some shitty little Instagram sketch.
It's literally like they're tiny little movies that are absolutely fucking hysterical.
Go watch them.
He's doing a new one every single week, or they're doing a new one every single week.
Like full production valve.
They put all their money into this.
He puts his Philly guys on.
He's from Philly.
It's unbelievable.
Reggie's always in every sketch.
Yeah, Reggie's really funny in it.
He's so funny.
Yeah, so just go check it out.
And this guy, McKeever, is like a really brilliant director.
He directs them all and him and Shane write them.
And then Shane stars in them all.
But like, he's a brilliant fucking director, man.
You got to give that guy some flour.
So go check that out.
SNL.
I mean, like, listen, obviously we all know they fucked up by not having Shane on, but they did want to have Shane on.
Yes.
But they're also a public company that has to succumb to whatever the fucking internet tells them to do.
So of course they're going to fire Shane, but it's not like they didn't also think he's funny.
You know what I mean?
Like they're looking at Shane.
They're going, yeah, that's why we wanted him.
They just have to be pussies because that's the nature of the game.
It is, I get it.
It is the nature of the game.
I very reluctantly agree with that.
You're right.
I just hate.
I would love to see one company be like, guys, handle it with a gray.
We would like to.
But all I'm saying is like, I'm trying to, I'm trying to, I'm trying to, like, we're asking, like, NBC to be like a revolutionary brand.
Like, they've built their money not being revolutionary.
They build their money by literally going along with the rules.
Maybe the difference is.
What are the rules?
Hey, what is it called?
FCC?
Yeah.
What can we not say?
Okay, we don't say it.
Let's make the funniest thing within the confines.
What they are is like a Honda Civic or a Toyota Camry.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
They're the car that's built within the specifications of gas allowed, like what is it, miles per gallon allowed.
You know, they have to have a certain amount of aerodynamics so they don't use too much gas, etc.
Like, that's what the show is supposed to be.
Honda Civic, Toyota Camry.
They're not a muscle car that just wastes fucking gas but goes fast and sounds awesome.
Yes.
So I don't expect them to operate like a muscle car.
The internet is a muscle car.
The internet's the fucking muscle car.
Creator on the internet who's not beholden to anybody is a muscle car.
Now, maybe the difference is it's not a publicly traded company, but I love that the Oakland Raiders had that tweet where they fucked up with the.
No, no, I'm giving you an example of one that I like, of a company standing for the Oakland Raiders.
Yeah, yeah.
I liked what they did when they had that I can breathe tweet after the Derek Chauvin verdict.
We were all like, what the fuck are you doing?
That's a crazy tweet.
And then they're like, yo, you're right.
We didn't know the history of this.
Tweet stays up.
No, no, that's not what they said.
They said, this is what Eric Garner's family said, or something like that.
Yeah, well, they said we didn't.
Maybe they didn't say you're right.
They said, okay, I understand.
They said we do know the history of this.
You misinterpret it because you don't know the history.
We're not taking it down.
Al Davis's son, whatever the fuck his name is, said, I didn't know cops put out these shirts after Eric Garner's death that were I can breathe.
A bunch of cops were wearing that.
And that's where people were offended.
And they were like, oh, okay, I didn't know that.
That gives some context to it.
I understand why you're upset.
But they didn't take the tweet down.
People were upset.
And they were just like, are you sure that's the history of it?
I mean, I read one article because it's like multiple things.
Like, cops did it in a negative way, and then like the family of George Floyd did it in like a positive way.
And like activists.
Yeah, sorry, not Eric Connor.
Garner.
So like the family of George Floyd did it, and they were quoting the family.
Like a cousin or something said, like, I can breathe or something like that.
Exactly.
We can breathe.
Yeah, something like that.
They're quoting somebody who they're on the right side with.
They're not taking the side of the cops in that situation.
It was misinterpreted by other people.
That's fine.
But at least they know who they're quoting.
And then they just go, yo, that's not on us.
That's on the Floyds.
You're going to take it up with the Floyds?
They're not being brave.
They're not going out.
He said he said some shit like, I didn't understand the history of it, whatever.
Like with the, again, post-Eric Garner, Cops Without Shirts, that said, I can't breathe.
I can breathe.
Which is after Eric Garner, that's fucked up.
He was like, I didn't know that.
This is what George Floyd's brother said.
And then I stick with it.
Yeah, because I stick with George Floyd's brother.
I don't want to belabor the point too long, but the general point is that was maybe a not one-to-one example, but that was an example of somebody public saying, Hey, guys, I understand you're upset about this.
I'm sticking with it.
Now, maybe it's not one-to-one, but I would love to see more of that from companies that are closer to SNL.
I would love to start trending in that direction.
I doubt that.
You don't want to see that.
Not at all.
Why is that?
Because I'm burying you.
Okay.
I'm grateful for your ineptitude.
Right.
Fair enough.
Okay.
I was having this conversation with Ben Uyeda, who's going to be on Flagrant You this week.
He's our smartest friend by far.
You hear us talking about him all the time.
He's just a genius.
And he was talking about like the thing that annoys me most in life are people who are like incompetent.
And I've chosen to be grateful for them because that's the only reason I can make money because they're incompetent people.
So instead of being annoyed by the thing that's most in life, that's the thing I'm most grateful for.
Oh, shit.
So he like flipped his own annoyance, if you will.
I thought it was like a real, a real good foot.
So I'm grateful that they have all these rules.
Grateful that they have the FCC.
I'm grateful that they can't say anything funny and it's so hard for them to be funny because it allows us to have this.
We've literally built this entire thing on the fact that comedy on TV sucks.
If comedy on TV could do everything that we could do, it would be hard to compete.
We can't be flagrant if everything's flagrant.
I understand your point.
And that ties into the business.
No, no, no, no, not even flag.
Yeah, okay.
That ties into what you said to Jordan Peterson, the Duval thing, which is basically just change your perspective.
You can change the situation.
So we just, yeah, that's a great perspective.
Oh, these guys exist, but they allow us to win.
So I'm grateful for them.
I love the fact that these rules are here.
I just think it's so interesting.
Like, these are the people you're going to go out on a limb on.
Like, Elon is the one that you don't want to deal with.
I don't understand it.
I completely understand why Elon has to go on there because this guy has realized that he can save millions and millions and millions of dollars in marketing if he's the marketing.
Yes.
Like, he's tweeting because that saves him millions of dollars in buying a fucking Super Bowl commercial.
Yeah.
Do I spend 10 million buying a Super Bowl commercial or do I talk about Dogecoin until everybody keeps saying my name and then they buy my car?
And to your point, how many Tesla commercials have we seen?
None.
They don't do it.
They're the most valuable car company in the history of the United States.
Tesla Rifle.
Yeah, this is the new thing, right?
It's like, so Ford 1 F-150, whatever, is going to have a car in the desert.
There's going to be fire and it's going to drive up the fucking spiral, right?
It's going to do all that shit.
You don't need it as long as you're the head of the brand.
A lot of people don't want to take the smoke and he gets a lot of smoke for it.
But what I think is brilliant about him, specifically, and maybe I'm only saying this because I'm invested in the company now.
He was annoying before I invested in the company, but now that I'm invested, the guy's a fucking genius.
But I think it's brilliant is he's willing to like stir up the water, cause some controversy, cause some gravity, and then also create these amazing projects, which you want to be tied to.
Like back in the day, like the Formula One thing, right?
You wanted to win Formula One or Le Mans.
Like you want to win these really powerful car races because it gave so much equity and value to your car company.
And then the average person, like me or you goes, well, shit, I want a Porsche.
Yep.
Well, McLaren or something.
I want a McLaren.
I want a Williams, right?
I want a BMW.
Right now, what is it?
Mercedes wins.
So it's like, ooh, well, I want a Mercedes because then I can drive the same type of car that Lewis Hamilton drives.
They must have good cars.
They must be the best cars.
Exactly.
They're the fastest of all the Formula One cars.
Exactly.
100%.
So now, I think Elon found a way to go even further with that.
I think he does want to go to Mars.
There's no question.
He does want to do all these things.
But like, I don't want to buy the car from the fast car maker.
I want to buy the car from the spaceship maker.
That's a good point.
I want the guy who makes my car to make spaceships.
That's cute.
Did you have a little Formula One car goes vroom, vroom?
You could take off the tires quick and put it back on.
That's adorable.
This guy takes off the rocket and then puts it back on.
It's similar to the Corvette thing Moz was telling us.
What's that?
Remember how they were taking, like, Corvette was basically sponsoring all the astronauts and giving them all Corvettes.
So basically, anytime an astronaut came back, it was like, you know, when they win the Super Bowl, where are you going?
We're going to Disney World.
Corvette was just like, yo, here's a Corvette.
And that's how they basically leeched on to the equity of an astronaut because those were the coolest people in the world at that time.
We still underrate how cool a fucking astronaut is.
They've become a little bit more nerdy.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, like they're flying to fucking space.
Here's the thing.
You got to put up with to go there.
But here's the thing about astronauts.
A lot of people don't realize, like, in the movies, they're 6'2.
They're jocks that are brilliant.
Yeah.
Right?
In real life, they're 5'6.
And they're nerds because you can't be too tall to fit in the cockpit.
You're an astronaut.
You are an astronaut.
Like I said, we sleep on how cool they are.
I know his mav skills are up there to be an astronaut.
That's true.
Yeah, he doesn't have nice enough maths.
He's not white or Asian.
Well, no, Asian.
If he was white or Asian, India's going to space.
Suck my dick.
How you go to space, but you can't even get corona vaccines, bro.
You got your priorities so fucked up.
Also, the Scottish people are on our own money.
I did some research, okay?
We got our own fucking people on our money.
Who?
Not all of them.
No, we deliver.
We have our own bank.
The Bank of Scotland puts out our notes.
And I guess because we're part of the Commonwealth, we can put our thing there.
But man, that was fucking debilitating, man.
I had all these Scottish people hit me up, like tell me all the cool shit we do, et cetera.
I want to get into the India thing in a second.
But just with the Elon thing, so he has to go on SNL and cause all this fucking stir.
And he doesn't have any pressure to be funny because the show's already not funny.
Yes.
Like, now is the time to do SNL.
Like, if you're a not funny person, now's the time because nobody's going to go, man, it wasn't funny this week.
The reaction to SNL is, yo, it was actually funny.
Like, if a good SNL sketch goes out, it's like, 100%.
It's actually funny.
100%.
Now, I'll be honest, I don't watch the show.
I only watch the sketches that come out and are funny.
And some of them, or people say are funny.
Some of them are funny.
Some of them are not funny.
I don't watch enough to actually make a real statement about it.
I think a lot of comics hate on SNL because it seems like a convenient source of frustration.
And it's a time of revolution.
Before they kept us out, but we couldn't say shit because they were gatekeepers.
Yeah.
Now, and you're a big part of this, people are realizing there aren't gatekeepers.
Right.
So now that they lost their power and they were kind of mean to you, it's like watching a bully lose his power.
And they're like, you know what?
Fuck you, buddy.
This whole time I've wanted to say fuck you.
Now I can say it.
Yeah, exactly.
It's like we want to say fuck you.
Other people said no to us.
And now that this thing no longer has the same power, it's like safe to say fuck you too.
Exactly.
There's no risk involved.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I get it.
I get it 100% being like, yeah, man, I want to shit on this show, but if I do, I'll never get on it.
If I got on it, that's a career.
It's like the nightclub that starts to fall off.
Yeah.
And now all of a sudden they're handing out flyers in the street asking you to come in.
You're like, yo, suck up my dick haven't you?
Yeah.
I never wanted to come in there anyway.
Well, you did originally.
Suck my dick every club.
You know what I mean?
Anyway, so it's just interesting what's happening with them, man.
I see SNL and I see like it's still for whatever reason a conversation topic.
Yes.
Like who's on SNL?
It's a staple of our culture, man.
40 plus years, 45 years at this point, probably.
It's fucking nuts.
But there's no one who goes, I love SNL.
Yeah, I actually have not met.
I truly have not met people that say I love SNL.
Truly.
So I guess what I'm curious about is like, how is it still this conversation topic if the unanimous feeling about the show is it wasn't as funny as it used to be?
Yeah, because I think there's also some frustration because before it was such a cultural driving force.
And this isn't entirely their fault.
Communication or entertainment just spreads so thin now.
But back when there was 10 channels, 20 channels, even just we just had cable and we started getting satellites.
SNL was still like driving culture.
It still had fucking superstars.
Will Farrell, Eddie Murphy, even later, like even Jason Sudekis and who's the girl, Kristen Wig.
Like they had fucking people even toward the end as it wasn't that funny.
But they just, oh, Adam Sandler, like Chris Rock, they just drove everything, dude.
What the fuck do they hate about Elon?
So like apparently no one from the cast officially said anything.
Yeah.
But they all sort of like kind of sub-tweeted him or whatever.
Yeah.
Specific people on the cast.
So like Boen Yang retweeted something.
Sanders And Trans Athletes00:08:07
He said, what the fuck does that even mean or something like that?
Yeah.
So basically Elon Musk goes, yo, we'll see how live Saturday night, Saturday Night Live really is with like the devil emoji.
And so I was, I assumed that that was like, oh yeah, like we're going to see how crazy we can make it.
Let's like really push the envelope and do something wild.
And then Boen Yang retweets it and goes, what the fuck does this even mean?
I think he pulled down the tweet.
And then another cast member like shared a story the day that Elon was announced that was like a Bernie Sanders critique on billionaires.
And again, Bernie Sanders is basically like Chris Reed.
Like the three billionaires in this country have more money than 50% of Americans like just illustrating the wealth disparity or whatever.
And then that person shared it.
And then another cast member posted like a horrified meme face.
And so they're like, it's not even that bad.
They're pulling all that in to say, what exactly is the outlash or like the backlash?
We don't exactly know.
But like, so I'm assuming it's the billionaire thing.
Fans are saying it's like the anti-union stuff and like the COVID, quote unquote, COVID denial.
Yeah.
He was denying the fuck out of COVID, bro.
He was not feeling that COVID.
But what makes it funny is that SNL now is able to do full shows with audiences still in like the quote-unquote pandemic in New York.
Dude, it was so funny.
I was talking to Ben about this yesterday, actually.
Like, if you cared that much about COVID, you wouldn't have any audience members at the show.
And apparently, the way that they're getting, yeah, exactly.
Right?
Like, you just wouldn't do it.
If you really cared about sharing COVID, you wouldn't bring these people into an enclosed space and then have them laugh with their mouths open and just shoot COVID all over the production of the public.
They're masked up and spaced out.
Masked up and spaced out, whatever.
I mean, like, look, I'm all for having people at the show, but I don't bitch about it.
I'm a bit of a siddh.
I'm pretty sure that all this Elon hate is just to draw up attention so people watch this.
That's kind of what I felt.
That would be smart.
I respect that.
Everybody, just do some little social media.
Because Elon, Elon, Alec Baldwin.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like, Alec Baldwin got way worse shit.
Like, you could listen to phone calls with him berating his daughter.
Yeah.
He's like physically assaulted people, right?
Like, so if your limit for having a guest on is how they treat other human beings, start with your own house, whatever Jordan Peterson said.
Make your bed.
You know what I mean?
Like, if that's where your moral compass starts to get a little out of whack, then talk to the dude who's playing Trump every single week.
But they don't really have a problem with that.
I think it is that.
I think they're like stirring up the water to catch a fish.
And it's what it is.
That would be very smart.
Has he been on this entire season?
I think this is the first episode we spoke about.
Yeah.
Yeah, but Alan is like hypersensitive.
He doesn't like when people come at him at all.
Like he gets in Twitter.
Really?
I would think he wouldn't give a fuck.
I would think he would think, but he gets super sensitive.
I mean, he pushes back.
Remember when he sub-tweet him on Twitter and get his reaction?
I don't think he cares.
I think he understands how it moves Twitter.
He would have to sign marketing to it.
So I think that like, I think that he claps back on people on the internet because he's like, oh, that's cheaper than doing an ad.
If I clap back and I put a fucking eggplant emoji after somebody said something about me, the entire internet's going to talk about it.
Reddit's going to talk about it.
It's going to go viral.
News stations are going to talk about it.
And you know what they're going to say?
Tesla owner Elon Musk.
I wonder if you could even tie Tesla's stock price to every time he insults somebody with a tweet.
So apparently, whenever he wows out on Twitter, this is at least before, the stock would dip for a few days and then come back up.
Interesting.
It just keeps.
Wils out on Twitter means like he's tweeting about companies or going back and forth with another human being.
I don't know about the back and forth.
That's all I care about.
Okay.
I know when he's like said the corona shit and all that.
No, I'm not talking about like actual business stuff.
I'm talking about like when he acts like a SoundCloud rapper on the internet trying to like drum shit up, you know, spark beef.
Yeah.
I don't know, man.
I think it's all.
And I think to his point, I'm not caring.
If they're going to do this, there's no way Elon Musk doesn't know.
There's no way these Bo and Yang or whatever is like, yo, I'm going to do this on my own.
SNL doesn't have to know.
And Elon, nah, they need to know.
Your job is on the line if you say some shit and Elon's like, yo, get this guy the fuck out of here.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
I also think that Elon Musk is a lot of his like personal branding and like trying to get his PR shit right.
So I think a lot of it is marketing, but also like trying to establish himself as like the cool billionaire.
You know what I mean?
Like billionaires are under so much scrutiny from like the government and society, especially as like people like Bernie Sanders are bringing up wealth disparity shit.
He's trying to be like, oh, I'm like a cool guy.
I'm nice.
I'm relatable.
I'm fun.
And I think that's where a lot of it comes from too.
Yeah.
I bet.
I just think he's really savvy and I don't think he cares that much how people feel about him as long as he's successful.
Yeah, I don't think he cares.
I think people that are that smart aren't usually super sensitive.
I don't think he cares how people.
Like he's that smart scientifically, business-wise.
Like they tend to give the least fuck emotionally.
But if public opinion sways policy and legislation, then it affects his money.
Exactly.
Yeah.
So as long as he is cool enough that it helps his businesses, he's good.
And I don't think he needs to be any cooler than that.
And if he dips below it, he's like, oh, I got to do some shit so people think I'm cool again.
Right.
Like, I remember when he sold all the houses and stuff?
Yeah.
It was super smart because now what are people clobbering supposed rich people for having?
Multiple houses.
Right.
Black Lives Matter chick.
How many houses you got?
Bernie Sanders.
How many houses you got?
Yeah.
Well, if you're just the rich guy that rents.
Shit.
Well, we can't talk about all the houses he got.
Yeah.
I don't know how many cars he got.
I mean, he's got plenty.
He's got Teslas.
Yeah.
But he owns a car company.
So he can have all the cars.
The Rockets.
I guess he's doing something with America.
But he's situated it well.
He sees the traps that a lot of these rich people fall into and he's avoided them.
He's got this, you know, kooky girlfriend that like checks him on his pronoun usage on Twitter.
Yeah.
Like, is that on purpose?
Probably.
I wouldn't be surprised.
I'm sure they've discussed it.
You can check me in public.
We have a discussion about it.
He's probably, yeah, that's good.
That makes me that much more likable.
Yeah.
And you know what?
This could also be this could also just be like our respect for his intellect.
Like this shit happens a lot.
Like when people admire what you do, they often assume everything you do is for a smart reason.
Yes.
You know what I mean?
Like anytime I watch one of these like, you know, stupid like YouTube videos that like break down my marketing plan or whatever like that, they always add this crazy like problem-solving ability to everything I'm doing when like half this shit is just luck.
We just try some shit and then it works.
But like the real reason why he made you turn your phone is because it would stop the scroll and all this other shit.
And I was like, yeah, we figured that out afterwards.
You know, so I think that that's what we do.
We like ascribe genius to every action.
Right.
When some people are just, you know, doing shit, half of the tweets might just be, I fucking, I'm bored.
Doge coming to the moon.
Could be.
You know, it could, half of them could be boredom.
Yeah, it could be.
It's way more fun than this.
Dogecoin is up, baby.
Say what?
Dodgecoin is up, baby.
Nobody knows how to pronounce that shit.
I still don't know.
Doge, bro.
Doge, dog, dodge.
It's up.
It's stuck.
I sold it.
What do you guys think about Caitlin Jenner?
What she said about the trans athletes?
It's just so funny her whole approach with all that shit.
Why?
Like, because Republican against same-sex marriage, against trans athletes in sports.
Has she said specifically she's against same-sex marriage?
I believe so, yeah.
Yeah, I think she said that early on.
Yeah, it was a while ago.
I got to see where she said that.
She probably reversed her stance because she got pushback.
No, I think she followed up with I'm a traditional woman or something like that.
I thought that she was against homosexuality because she doesn't see herself as homosexual.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm a traditional woman.
But then didn't she say she's not attracted to men?
I don't know what this bitch is.
But I know that I agree with her when it comes to the trans athletes thing.
I do.
They basically asked her, like, do you think that trans athletes, so for example, a man that becomes a woman should be able to now compete with women in like high school?
I think they were saying.
But I think let's just take this to all sports.
And yeah, of course not.
Why this is an issue is absolutely besides me.
Men and women cannot compete in sports because men are better than women in most sports.
Gender Rules In Sports00:15:15
And the things we're not better at them at, we compete together.
There's no like women's chess and men's chess.
There's just chess.
Women happen to not be very good at it.
Except on Netflix is the only place they're very good at, but they can compete together because there's no difference in the cognitive ability that men and women have, at least when it comes to playing chess, right?
But when it comes to lifting heavy things, men can do that more.
Yes.
We are better at lifting heavy things.
I'm not hiring an all-female moving company.
You can judge me if you want to, but I'm not doing it.
Why not, dude?
I just don't want to pay that hourly rate for so many more hours.
Ah, dude, I would watch that shit every single day.
I'm still going to lift more than you.
I would not know.
If God came looking like me, I'd kick that motherfucker out of my house.
Throwing some food.
That's amazing.
All-female moving company just watching like 30 of them move a couch like ants moving a banana peel, right?
That would be amazing.
Unless you get them on the one week where they're all synced up.
Oh, then they got that super strength.
Yeah, then they're able to go Super Saiyan and just move all the way.
Eat chocolate between moving shit.
Yeah, exactly.
All right, guys, we're going to take a break for a second because you need to get your lives together.

You go do this right now, okay?
Freshly.com slash flagrant.
You're going to have $40 off your first two orders when you go to freshly.com/slash flagrant.
Okay.
Go there right now.
Now let's get back to the show.
Anyway, it seems like such a no-brainer.
I don't understand why.
What if we based it on when you started the gender change?
What about if we don't?
And we just say, you're a guy, and I understand that you want to masquerade as a girl, and that's fine.
And if we have to call you a girl because it makes you feel more comfortable, cool, if you want to wear girls' clothes, that's amazing.
But you don't get to beat up girls that were born as girls because you could fucking hurt them because you have a huge advantage.
This is like no-brainer.
Hypothetical, what if you go the other way?
That never happens.
Tony Hinchcliffe has a great joke about this, so I don't want to like, I don't want to touch on his joke, but he basically does say that there aren't a lot of athletes that go the opposite way.
Yeah.
There's not a lot of trans men that choose to play men's sports because they can't.
Right.
Simple as that.
There is a difference.
Like, why are we acting like there's not a difference?
But that happened, though.
There is like that story.
Mauricia.
She was nice.
There was that story.
So basically, a girl transitions to a guy, gets on testosterone and like all the hormones to transition into a guy.
Yeah.
And then wants to compete in wrestling.
Yeah.
And then like the state athletic commission was like, no, you have to compete against women.
Yeah.
And so now this guy is like, I don't want to compete against women because I'm going to dominate them.
Yeah.
And then he goes in and dominates everyone.
Now, did he get to wrestle the guys?
No.
Because the athletic commission said you have to compete with the gender that you're born with.
And so he goes, well, fuck.
And now he has all this testosterone.
Exactly.
So it's a huge advantage.
And is like lifting crazy, like bone density is going up, muscles going up.
Yeah, you don't get to compete.
Is that the girl in the TikTok that she goes like that?
Somebody out the frame.
No.
That girl is ripped.
That girl's amazing.
I love those TikToks.
But no, in those situations, you don't get to compete.
Sorry, dude.
What if you started whatever the process to whatever you call it at like age three?
So now.
Your parents should be shot in the head.
Your parents should be shot in their fucking head if you're transitioning a kid at three or four years.
So, after we shoot the parents in the head, he's really sucking on that pacifier.
I think it's a girl.
Six, seven, eight, whatever.
Before puberty, before shit really starts to go hormonally one way, what if you start then?
Seven, eight years old, the kid is like, I know what I am.
This is what I want to do.
Your parents should go to prison.
Okay.
How are you not seeing this?
Okay, so now after you send the parents to prison, would you allow that kid to compete in sports?
No.
Okay.
Not at all.
Porque no.
Because you're not allowed to.
That's funny.
I understand what you're saying.
Now, what he's saying is if we transition early enough where you wouldn't have the positive side effects of having extra testosterone in your body, testosterone disparities.
Yeah.
So essentially, you would present like whatever gender you chose in that moment.
Right.
That's what you're saying.
Yeah.
Yes, I guess that should be good.
But nobody should be allowed to transition at eight years old.
I mean, you don't even let your kid choose what food goes in their mouth at eight years old.
You literally go, no candy until after you eat your vegetables.
Right.
You're not going to go, no cock growing out of your body until after you eat your vegetables, right?
Like, so it, I mean, are you supportive of that?
Like kids getting testosterone therapy at eight?
I don't know what the age is, but I don't.
Yeah.
I don't think you support it at 18.
Like, if we're being entirely honest here, I understand the argument.
I didn't say nothing.
Yeah.
No, no, no.
Hey, listen, once you turn 18, do whatever the fuck you want with your body.
If we can send you to war, then you could send you.
I mean, you're losing things in war.
You know what I mean?
Like, people come back from war missing shit.
That's what trans people should really do.
Like, I listen, I was, you know, I was dry humping some dirt in Kabul, and there's a mine went off.
And you know, actually that's my whole point.
What do you fuck out there?
It's not like they got brothels.
When Trump banned trans people from the military, I was like, that's fucked up.
You should just do, encourage trans people to go in the military.
Why?
Just soup them up.
Like, give them all the testosterone, get them fucking jacked.
Captain America.
Yeah, like go full cyborg with it.
Do we allow Roy's in the military?
That's interesting.
I don't know why we don't.
I think we should.
Everyone should just be on PEDs.
Is the next Disney Disney movie just Captain America, but trans?
Yes.
Like they walk in, they take the super serum, goes from a girl to a fucking brolic-ass dude.
That's a good point, yeah.
Killing it.
If you're already transitioning, you're like, yeah, fucking transition me with, you know, cyborg parts.
Give me like a fucking gun on my arm.
I mean, can we look?
It sucks, obviously, if you feel like you're born the wrong body.
I have tons of empathy for that because that must fucking suck.
But you're a douchebag to compete against the new gender.
Like, you're a fucking asshole, dude.
Are you not?
Hit it, Al.
Okay, go.
How many women's sports do you watch right now?
Oh, that's a good point.
You don't watch every woman's sports.
I watch every woman's sport.
I watch any.
Dude, I've been watching the cooking channel non-stop.
That's what I'm saying.
It's like, we don't watch them now.
Let them compete.
It might get good.
Oh, you're saying, like, have.
Actually, Mark has a joke about this: how Dwayne Wade's daughter is going to fucking save the WNBA.
Yeah.
That shit might get good.
It's going to light up.
Yeah, but it's not going to get good because there are women doing it.
It don't matter.
I guess.
I hear what you're saying.
I know you want to be educated.
But I'm still not going to watch a little bit worse dudes do the sports.
It's G-League.
Yeah.
Like, do you watch G-League?
Nah, what if they start shit like that?
I guess I hear what you're saying, but like, we can't have that conversation.
Like, we can't sit down with the trans athlete and just be like, hey, bro, or whatever.
Just be like, yo, yo, you really want to do this to girls, bro?
You really want to do this with your dad?
In their head, they're a girl.
But are they?
But are they, bro?
In their head?
Nah.
When they got to go pee, do they squat behind a fucking Toyota tundra and hope that their friend blocks them?
Every time I see a girl pee, it's behind a Toyota tundra and their friend is blocking them.
Is that what they do?
Or do they just pull that fucking danga lang out and piss like a dude on a brick wall in a fucking alley?
What about postdoc?
Can they compete?
Huh?
If they got the dick chopped off, it's not about the dick or not.
It's really just about the competitive advantage that a man has over a woman.
Because of testosterone.
Yeah.
But you gave a little leeway for if they started the hormone therapy early.
Yo, son, can I just give you a question?
Let me ask you this question.
Would you be fine?
You know them slap competitions where the people just stand in front of each other and slap the shit out of each other?
Would you be fine if a trans woman, so a man that transitioned into a woman, was in that with a bunch of women, bro?
UFC.
That shit would be hilarious.
UFC is a good thing.
I might prefer that.
That would be hilarious.
UFC.
He spoke to Alice Puerto Rican side.
That's his dream.
Motherfucker's about to get some acrylic nails and join that shit himself.
Yeah, I was like, what's the catch?
What is the catch with that, though?
I'm just saying, it doesn't.
I would just like to have like an honest sit-down.
I understand that you care about sports.
I understand that you want to compete.
I understand you're not at a slight disadvantage with the doozies who've been taking this estrogen.
That sucks.
But don't you feel like you kind of cheating being with these girls, bro?
You don't feel like that?
Come on, dude.
Not at all.
I mean, they're not going to care.
Who's not going to care?
The trans person that you're asking this question to, they're not going to care.
They want to play the sport that they love and they feel like they're a woman in their head.
So now, my question is, why can't they play in the men's league?
I just say you asshole.
They can't.
They're just not good enough.
But 100% can't.
I mean, Bruce Jenner did, and she was really good at it.
She's the greatest trans athlete of all time when you think about it.
So it's like she was a trans athlete.
She excelled.
She won all the medals.
All that shit.
You can play with the men.
Nobody's saying you can't play with the men.
Bruce could have done that shit with nails on, with fucking heels, do whatever you want.
There's a player where you can win with wokeness and say, you know what?
We're just taking gender out of this forever.
All leagues are whoever's the best is the best.
And then you got the WNBA.
They don't.
I mean, the NBA again.
There's no WNBA anymore.
It's just all dude.
Smoke, bro.
But you can out-woke it.
You can get in front of the wokeness and be like, you know what, guys?
You're right.
Gender is a social construct.
Gender is a social construct.
We are eliminating the WNBA.
The NBA will be open to all genders.
Whoever's the best can play.
That's it.
And you'll get the fucking giant pat on the back, and then you got the NBA and the WNBAs.
Then you're going to see the reversal of what can we have a women's league?
We wouldn't do that to you.
Gender is a social construct.
Why would we do such a sexist backwards thing?
So that's, you just got to get in front of them because they can't, they woke themselves into a circle, these people.
So you just got to get in front of it and just trap them.
You know what the real issue is that we build sports into this thing of value.
That's really what it comes down to.
Like sports don't have to be the thing of value.
We could create sport, a sport out of anything.
Like if giving birth was a sport and like pushing the baby out as fast as you possibly could, if that was a sport, women dominate.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like absolutely dominate.
And like if for whatever reason we just chose that that was the coolest thing to watch and then we would watch it on Tuesdays and Fridays on TNT and Charles Barkley and fucking Ernie Johnson would be talking that shit every single day and Barbie would be like, damn, you got some strong pussy lips squeezing that baby out real quick.
If that was what society cared about, they would have this huge advantage.
They'd be making millions of dollars and we would be out here like, fuck, we got to find ways to like, I don't know, squeeze eggs out of our asshole or something like that.
Like we'd have like the male version of nobody would watch it.
Nobody would watch it.
Why can we not watch it?
Why don't we get paid the same as the women?
And we'd be subsidizing.
They'd be like, because you're just squeezing eggs out of your asshole.
It's not even a real sport.
You're not even really giving birth.
We've made up what sports are.
It's Bitcoin.
It's crypto.
We've just decided that this thing called sports has value.
And it sucks because women are at a disadvantage in those things that are sports.
But if it was something that women are at advantage of, you know, I don't know, like fucking doing more than one thing at a time or something, whatever they say they're good at.
Multitasking.
Multitasking.
Multitasking was a sport, you know, or if like remembering where I put shit was a sport.
Yeah.
Yo, bro.
That make sports out of that, ladies.
Remember where I put shit.
It's uncanny.
I agree with that.
Babe, where did I put my shoes?
In the drawer.
In the drawer, behind the door.
Bottom left, yeah.
We go back to the back of the drawer in the left corner.
Cooking a meal, cleaning, feeding the dogs.
Babe, where are my glasses?
You left them in the studio on Tuesday.
All right.
They should be here, actually.
How amazing is that?
But if we decided as a society to build things around women's strengths, and I guess the reason we don't is because if what?
It's just what you classify as women's strength is very funny.
That is one of their strengths, remembering everything.
That's very funny.
We talk about it about how they remember everything in fights, but they also remember other shit, like where we leave things around the house, right?
How many girls you fuck between age 20 and 25.
Yeah.
Even though I think they're cheating, though, they know where the shit is.
Just talk over that one.
I ain't getting caught in that game.
My girl always be like, why don't we talk about it, Passive?
Stop.
I see what you're doing, yo.
I know this game, yo.
Chill out, chill out.
Come on, we're not doing this shit.
Nah, they be knowing where everything is because they moved it.
That's because they might have moved it so they know.
But even if I moved her shit to try to like trick her, I would have forgotten about that.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Son, I gotta leave.
I gotta take shit with me.
I can't leave shit in my own house because I'll lose it.
I can't leave in my own, what is it, a little glove compartment in the car?
Purse.
But the car's purse?
The car pockets.
That's a man purse.
That's a car pocket.
But I can't even leave shit there because I know I forget it there and no will be there until we give the car back.
And I'm like, oh, shit, my credit card was in here.
That's how forgetful I am about stuff.
I guess we've created like, how do I say this?
Like, men, we also value the best of the best with women, right?
Right.
Like, I think that we, hmm, I guess they'll compete on certain things that we value, obviously, like, looks.
I have a list of 14 things women are better at than men.
I want to read it in one second.
I just want to get this point out.
But so because male hierarchy dictates what woman we get, right?
And because society was structured around male hierarchies, because our role was, I guess, more important in terms of like the protection of women and the providing for the family for tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, probably, whatever.
Like these things that are kind of based around our ability to like protect and provide, which have become sports, have value.
But if it was the other way around, we'd be doing this exact same thing.
Yes.
Pain Versus Pleasure Debate00:12:07
With the 14 things that women do better than men.
Go.
What are they?
All right.
University of Georgia and Columbia found that women have a better approach at expanding minds, more open-minded.
Boom.
Also, higher IQ tests.
That's true.
I 100%.
Wait, what?
No.
Higher IQ tests.
According to the study of IQ tests from around the world, women have a higher IQ than men on average.
No, no, that.
He's reading for cosmopolitan.
Oh, dude.
Come on.
Check your sources.
Here's the IQ thing.
Here's the IQ.
They could have a higher average.
Average.
I believe that's what we're doing.
And then the outliers tend to be men that are the highest.
But on average, average girl, I do think smarter than the average guy.
Most college universities.
People tend to be guys.
Yeah.
Most women go to college.
Yeah, most costs.
Or more women are going to college.
They're cleaner.
Apparently, their desks are cleaner at most workplaces.
They're better at handling the stress of a diet.
Their desk is cleaner, but their fucking bathroom counter, disaster.
Disaster, bro.
Their bathtub, disaster.
So they just put all their dirt in one little place and we spread it around conveniently throughout our entire space.
So it doesn't overwhelm us.
We have a higher clean average.
That's what it is.
Yeah, we have a higher clean average.
But the cleanest woman is just cleaner than the cleanest guy.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, the cleanest woman, the cleaner, the cleanest guy.
And the cleanest area is going to be a woman's area.
But if you look at overall, we're higher.
Yeah, higher, clean average.
Okay, go.
Women are getting better looking through evolution, whereas men are seeing the same thing.
Without a question.
Without a question.
Because they haven't valued our looks.
So we just stay the same.
And that's our moment.
Anytime women are like, oh, blah, blah, blah, you're ugly or some shit.
It's like, bitch, be shallow, bitch.
Like, I'm this way because your ancestors don't know how to fuck good dick.
I don't know about that.
If your ancestors knew what good dick was, I would be better looking.
My ears would be poached back to my head.
My nose would be regular.
But because you and your fucking stupid ancestors were sucking off sixes, you know what I mean?
You made me this way.
I had to pay for it.
Yeah.
I inherited charisma.
Now I got to be funny as hell.
I'm funny as hell.
High-handed.
Be shy.
You like these jokes, bitch?
It's your fault.
Stupid-ass grandparents can't suck no good dick.
You know what I mean?
Oh, you're good.
Apparently, women are more likely to survive car accidents.
Why?
Because they be in them all the time.
Yeah.
They're used to it.
You know how a skateboarder, when he falls off his board, he knows how to roll real well.
But like someone who's never skateboarded, they just stand on it, flip, and then bust their head.
That's women with car accidents.
They've just been in so many car accidents.
Why I bet?
I actually bet because the man will sacrifice himself to save his girl.
She is fucking sick.
Are we talking the blind soul?
Saints.
Men are saints.
Men are saints.
I got two airbags, the airbag and my girl, bro.
I'm trying to win here.
Come on.
Go, go.
All right.
Women are better at resolving arguments.
Yes.
They're more agreeable in arguments.
Never mind.
I take it.
No, no, they resolve them.
I wouldn't say they're more agreeable, but they know how to get them shits resolved by them being right and us just whittling away.
They're better emotional communicators, according to this.
They can communicate more emotions, yeah?
Yeah, okay.
100%.
Yeah.
53% of women are willing to talk to their friends about what's stressing them out.
She says the same shit three times in a row.
Yeah, no, it's the same stat.
Nah, yeah, that's true.
So there's really 11.
There's 11 things they're better at.
Actually, 12.
They're better at saying the same shit multiple different times.
A woman definitely wrote this.
That's a good point.
Uh-huh.
All right.
80% of women.
What was this?
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 80% of those who have lost their jobs since December have been men.
So women are better retaining their jobs.
That's sexism, yo.
Why aren't they holding on to the men in these workplaces?
That's because they've all owned OnlyFans.
They had no job to work.
Nah, that's because we work outside.
Women don't work outside.
And all the outside jobs got shut down because of corona.
Why would the outside jobs?
Construction.
Why would construction stop?
It's outdoors.
It stopped.
It did stop.
I did.
Initially with Corona.
Yeah.
Everything outside when you're around people, et cetera.
You can't work remote with construction.
Yeah.
Anything where you couldn't work from your own apartment.
Gotcha.
Women eat healthier on average.
100%.
Yeah.
Come on.
100%.
Allegedly have that.
Oh, yeah.
They have stronger immune systems.
I believe that.
And a higher pain tolerance.
I believe that also with the pain tolerance.
But also everything's painful to them.
So we don't know if they got higher pain tolerance.
That's the point.
They say higher pain tolerance, but they're also freezing all the time.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
So it's like you've decided what is painful.
Ah, that's what it is.
We can handle more average.
What is the, yo, but they be giving birth.
That's what I'm saying.
They're the outliers.
They can handle it.
Yo, You've probably spoken about this before, but like, I don't believe it hurts.
I just don't believe it hurts, bro.
Like, you're telling me.
I don't believe it.
I don't believe it.
Cats out the bag.
It don't hurt.
Cats out the bag, bro.
That much.
So it can't hurt that much.
The body's built for it.
You either believe in evolution or you don't believe in evolution.
You make the argument for it and you make the argument for me.
Okay, real quick, real quick, real quick.
Let me just get this out.
Let me just get this out.
I feel y'all did, son.
Let me just get this out, right?
Think about this.
No, no, no.
This is facts.
This is evolution.
This is science.
This is Darwin, bro.
Listen, if I told you, yo, every time I take a breath, that shit hurts.
If I said to you, every time I walk, it hurts, right?
You'd be like, how does just walking hurt for you?
This is something that we've evolved to do over millions of years.
It actually doesn't work.
It might feel good.
It might be a pleasurable experience.
Okay.
It looks from an outside perspective like that shit hurts.
I'm sure.
But it can't hurt that much.
I'm saying when it's wrong, when a baby comes out sideways or whatever, or feet first, you know what I mean?
If you haven't went in that fucking slip and slide babies, maybe it hurts.
But just regular headfirst baby?
How?
Yeah, yeah, the Sparta baby, that shit makes sense.
Sparta baby is bad.
But if it's regular baby, explain to me how it hasn't gotten less painful over time.
Explain to me.
Characteristics.
Go.
If you have like an Andrew nose, that shit might get caught.
That's possible.
That's not painful.
That's possible.
Also, maybe more hormones in the food so the babies are getting bigger inside and the canal's not big enough.
Maybe babies were smaller back in the day.
That's a hot take, bro.
But women are also bigger, so fuck.
And their pussies are bigger, big-ass pussies.
Yeah, so that might, that might be a wash.
You know what I mean?
It can't hurt.
It hurts, but not as much as they say it hurts.
Not as much as it looks like it hurts.
You know how to eat.
I mean, like, look, we're not trying to take away birth.
We're not trying to take the birth of pain.
Listen, I'm not sure.
I don't know how you're going to get there, but I'm very excited.
Listen, I'm not trying to take away the pain of birth, and I'm so grateful that women would go through this and that we have human beings because of it.
I'm grateful of my mom.
Okay.
It's amazing.
But I'm just saying.
I'm just saying that science would show that eventually the body would become accustomed to this behavior.
Right?
Would it not?
It does.
The hips widen out.
The hips widen.
The body gets ready for that act.
Yeah.
It's ready for it.
It's powerful.
And the fucking diagram is completely when it when it's dilated, then it's you're fine.
Yeah.
So you're good.
So what's something you think is the most painful?
How much is eight centimeters, Miles?
Do you know?
Oh, I actually do know this.
That is that.
It's that much.
Nothing.
That's eight centimeters right there, bro.
That's eight centimeters?
Between your middle finger and ring fingers?
Yeah, yeah.
You say a baby can't fit out of that, bro.
You trying to tell me a little ass baby, bro.
If you ever seen a baby, how cute their little hands and feet are, you saying that can't fit out of that, bro.
Look at that.
That's a giant.
I had shits bigger than that.
And I wasn't crying.
I wasn't Lamaz.
I didn't have a Lamaz.
I might have shit of tears.
I might have shut a tear.
I didn't have to go to...
I only do that if it's hot.
You got a Lamaz for them.
I only do it if it's hot.
If I have a hot shit, if for whatever reason I ate spicy food and my ass is on fire, like the shit itself is on fire.
It's burning my butt lips, then I'll do Lamaz.
But if it's just a large poop, I can push that through.
Son, are you kidding me, dude?
Are you kidding me?
I damn near think I could get through that.
I do.
And the head is still soft.
Yeah.
The head's not even hard.
The head can squoosh.
That is true.
It's got a hole in the middle, so it squooshes.
Yeah.
Why we even, yo, how it takes you that long, yo?
How does it take you that long?
Like, if I'm being deadass, I was like, be deadass.
I'm laboring 48 hours.
Get off your phone.
Get off your phone.
You on your phone too much.
I know what happens when I'm in the bathroom for half an hour taking a shit.
I'm on my phone for at least 15, 20 minutes of that half hour.
What do you say to me if we're in a rush and I got to take a shit?
What do I say?
You say, give me your phone.
Oh, yeah, sure.
Yeah, yeah.
You say, give me your phone.
Devil go, give me your phone.
Because they know we're out of there quicker.
You on your phone.
Why are you giving birth, bro?
They probably got the TV going.
You watching Netflix or some shit like that.
And that's why it's so disgusting.
You gotta talk to the real housewife's binge.
You just lost focus.
That's the other thing.
Also, why are you giving birth laying on your back?
If I try to take a shit laying on my back, it's gonna take way longer to take a shit.
Use gravity, fam.
Get a little one of those bouncy things.
That actually is a legit thing.
Bro, what do they put kids in?
They put them in.
Only when they're behaving, misbehaving.
But no, no.
What are those little things they put kids in?
Or the bounce around?
It's a bounce around.
For the bounce around?
Yeah.
It's a bounce around.
They put it in the doorway and they just start bouncing around.
And there's like a little circle to go around there.
They could kind of walk.
It's before they can walk, but it's almost like training them to walk.
I think that we have women give birth like that.
I think they do it over a tub or something like that, and they just bounce up and down like this and then squeeze.
If you bounce up and down like that and squeeze, you could be out of there in 45 minutes, dude.
I don't see a hole in the logic.
I don't see a hole in the logic.
Yeah, I mean, this argument is crazy turn because that's correct.
Wait, what?
Wait a minute.
Your wife gives birth.
No, I mean, eventually, yeah.
She helps give birth.
Yeah, that part.
Yeah, she's a birthgiver.
I mean, in an abstract way, yes.
Okay, so she helps with that.
She's a doctor for birthgiving.
Yeah.
So tell me why I'm right.
So she says they should be twerking in the shower.
That's right.
Exactly.
Yeah.
No, because basically you go on your back so the doctor can see in.
So like the doctor's like, yo, go on your back.
No, Doc, we don't need you, bro.
It is easier to give birth when you crouch down.
He can't do that shit like a mechanic at the little thing that slides down.
That's exactly what I'm doing.
What's that for?
Uh-huh.
You come back up with some oil like that.
I need a wrench.
Exactly.
He should slide under there like that.
Yeah, 100%.
So we're making this just convenient for him because he doesn't want to slide on the ground.
Yo, standing hospital bed, stir-ups like that, put that shit aside, and then he slides under.
He don't even need to slide under.
You just cut the hospital room in half.
So you have her sit on the top half.
Oh.
And then he can walk in at regular height, catch the baby.
Yeah, like some Winnie the Poop shit.
She's sitting there.
You got to have some.
Imagine a floor halfway as a loft bed.
Imagine a loft bed.
You've never been to a broke bitch's house?
Imagine a loft bed, right?
Oh, a milking table.
A milking table.
Exactly.
You guys seen that, man.
So the loft bed is like that.
Legs are hanging here.
She's just bouncing up and down.
The baby's flying through.
We missed something.
For a cow, right?
I was talking about more like the sexual position.
Yeah.
No, I don't know what that is.
I thought for a cow.
Shout out to Dave.
Yeah.
That's where you get a table and you cut a hole in it at the end of, yeah, and then someone goes under there and jerks you off on the table.
Oh, wow.
That's crazy.
I was literally thinking that finally farmers realize they didn't have to bend over to milk the cows if they just build a platform four feet.
No, they still have to be.
And they could just milk at regular height.
No, they still do that.
They're still sitting on a bucket.
Yeah.
These idiots.
I hope Monsanto replaces all you.
You deserve it.
Yeah.
I'm going to start with the farmers, dude.
Yeah, respect.
My bad, my bad, my bad.
I know y'all going through it.
They found a way to shut up the farmer.
Yeah, no, that's just fire.
You put them in the floor, cut it off, put their waist around it.
I mean, it's mind-boggling.
Imagine trying to take a really difficult shit laying on your back.
MMA Chimp Comparisons00:06:18
Yo, I'm going to be honest.
I think you revolutionized birthgiving.
You fixed it.
At the very least, it's easier.
You letting gravity do the work.
Men are better than doing.
We figured out birth.
I'm just saying.
I'm basically a doula, bro.
Yo.
You should be a doula.
I am a doula.
You did that.
Oh, you are?
I just became it.
Andrew.
Andrew.
And Drula.
Andrew.
Oh, yeah.
That could work.
Yeah.
Maybe, maybe just Andrew.
Okay, that's all I'm saying.
So, Caitlin Jenner.
You're right.
Caitlin, you're right.
Okay.
I don't even understand why this ends up becoming this like huge talking point.
Why do we care so much about the trans shit?
Caitlin Jenner.
That's when it started.
That was the tipping point.
Fascinating.
It is fascinating.
Yeah, it creates so many issues with society in terms of how we viewed it for so long.
Yeah.
And then this thing, even though it's such a tiny little anomaly that affects such a small amount of the population, completely fucks with the whole way everything's structured.
And everyone just goes, we don't know what to do.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That question will come, but how do you answer it?
There's what is the way running for office.
How do you answer that question of how do you feel about this?
How do I feel about what?
He just answered it, bro.
Yeah.
You think he's going to be wrong diplomatic?
I'm the diplomatic rule.
This is the rule.
By all means, you want to be called, you know, Gwyneth.
I'll call you Gwyneth.
Whatever you want.
You want your pronouns, this, that, the other, you, whatever.
You're not going to be in an MMA fight against a real woman.
It's just not happening.
Now, what if they're not better?
Still, you're not allowed.
Like, if they're getting hummed, sometimes we got to make rules for everybody.
What if Akash transitions and he's fighting Ronda Rousey?
I would never be so stupid as to go and Akash could beat Rouse.
I understand there's no genetic advantage.
What?
Akash could beat up Akhoshi.
Ronda Rousey.
Guys, I hate to say the obvious thing here.
She's a girl.
It doesn't matter.
Kind of too.
Like, she's.
She's stocked.
Yeah, but he could just say one thing to lose all confidence.
Like, you got kind of big shoulders.
You know, Akash could use that sharp wit.
Yeah, he'll make it.
Take her down.
And then she'll fuck him up.
I honestly don't think that Ronda Rousey could beat you up.
I'm not saying that.
You really don't think so?
No, I don't think.
That's wild.
That's the wildest thing you've said this podcast.
Yeah, that's hilarious.
That's the wildest thing you've said.
I know.
That I think a little bit of offensive.
A little bit of film.
A small amount, given what just happened.
I know his belief is almost as offensive as his belief, bro.
I mean, I just don't think.
But I do generally agree with you.
You know how chimps are small, but they have all this power.
Yeah.
I'm with you.
That's men.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you know how you look at the chimp, you're like, you're not that strong.
You just eat branches.
Like, you're literally a vegan.
Like, all you do is eat leaves all day.
How the fuck can you have protein enough to be strong, right?
That's the disparity between a man and a chimp is the same as the disparity between a woman and a man.
So a weak-looking, pathetic human being like Akash is still a fucking chimpanzee compared to Ronda Rousey.
I love where you're going with this.
I don't think I agree, but I like the idea.
Bro, have you never helped your girl with anything?
Yeah, that's true.
But my girl's not Ronda Rousey.
Like, Ronda Rousey's a big girl.
I'm going to be completely honest with you.
Ronda Rousey cannot open up jam.
I'm going to be completely honest with you when I say that.
Ronda Rousey needs her boyfriend if she wants to make peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
I mean that since I sincerely feel that.
Actually, you might take her.
She's 5'7, 135.
5'7, 135.
What?
Oh, what?
What?
What?
You might be able to take her.
But that's the Google weight.
So she's probably like a good 10-pound head.
Yeah, she's like 145, 150.
Still, 145.
How much do you weigh?
You weigh like 90, 95.
I weigh 110 on a good day.
Thank you.
What is your real weight?
145, 147, whatever.
Oh, so that's a fair.
Oh, that's going to be a fair fight.
I will say this, though.
I will say this.
Straight fight, you beat her.
If it's like some jiu-jitsu type thing, that's what we're saying.
No, we're not.
Jiu-Jitsu's different.
That's a different thing.
Because Jiu-Jitsu works in a jujitsu fight.
I'm talking to MMA.
Yeah, MMA, I don't think it works.
If it's just jiu-jitsu, then they can win.
Do you beat her in MMA?
In MMA, he beats her.
Yeah.
He does.
He beats her.
He beats her actually easily.
I don't know how he wins a single round.
How does he win?
How does he win that?
Because she can't open jam.
She can't open jam.
You're assuming I can always open jam.
I don't think you can.
I can't always open jam.
Between the both of you, she starts it, and you actually crack it open.
She's like, oh, I loosened it.
Like, that's the whole conversation that would go between you.
You can commentate the fight.
Like, how long would the fight go?
I wouldn't do it because it's against my moral code.
Your religion?
I wouldn't commentate the fight unless she identified as male.
But no, because she can't fight in.
Yeah, I thought this.
They can fight in that.
It can only work the other way around.
I've amended my rules.
I've amended my rules.
You can do it if you're at a disadvantage, not at an advantage.
See, I kind of wish they did this with sports in like the 60s.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Why?
Yeah.
Because if they just said, like, yo, like, we let black people play, they're going to fucking destroy us in every sport.
I would have been like, all right, well, you know, I don't want to get destroyed in basketball every single game.
Yeah.
Okay.
That's my point.
Keep going with that.
They did do this in the 60s, Mark.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So now I'm agreeing with you.
Yeah.
The better athletes came into the sport, and now the sports look different.
I don't know if you noticed.
Maybe we learned for the past.
Yeah, we're not trying to let it happen again.
We're protecting female athletics.
Okay?
Exactly.
Because if you really look at basketball the way God intended it to be played by white Christian men, college basketball, yeah.
College basketball by white Christian men.
It's no longer that way.
Yeah.
And it is a tragedy.
Yes, thank you.
It is an absolute tragedy.
So the WNBA, as it was intended, to be played by big fucking ladies.
That will no longer be the case if we let these dudes get in there.
I mean, think about it.
You're going to let Ron Artes join the WNBA.
White Christian Basketball Tragedy00:04:14
Come the fuck on, bruv.
Come on, bruv.
You know, it'd be a good question.
All these girls just getting rinsed, bruv.
If the big three is still a thing, one big three team, retired NBA players, big three.
Versus Testicle.
Versus a WNBA team, five of them.
Yeah.
So who wins that?
Big three.
Really?
Steven Jackson and whoever else.
Nah.
I'm being honest with you.
Steph Curry.
Full court a half.
Steph Curry is not a dominant.
Let's say full.
Steph Curry's not a physically dominant player.
Yeah.
Steph Curry by himself could beat a WNBA team.
The only problem would be inbounding the ball to himself.
But once he inbounded the ball to himself, I mean this sincerely.
You guys think that I'm like being hyperbolic here.
As long as you could, as long as you could get around a full court game, not make it take it.
Not make it take it, full court game.
Full court game, he could beat a WNBA team.
Not even a question.
Blow out.
Blowout.
Oh, man.
Blowout.
Would you fight it?
Would you fight Ronda Rousey?
No.
Would you fight?
Why not?
Because I don't hit women.
What about Nunez?
Amanda Noons?
I don't hit women.
Now, would you go in a powerlifting competition versus Ronda Rousey or Amanda Nunez?
No.
Why not?
I'm not good at power.
That shit is that hard, bro.
Squats and dead lips and all that.
All right, guys, we're going to take a break for a second because it's time to get cushy.
Okay.
Let me crack this open.
We're going to do an unboxing live on air of the Cushy Dreams CBD.
Let me tell you something.
This smells, oh, wow.
Cushy is the best in the business when it comes to CBD, okay?
They have the Leaf.
They have the pre-rolls.
They have absolutely everything.
They've been trying to work with us for a while, and we finally decided that it was time to make it happen.
We really like what they've been doing.
We like what they've been cooking up, and we love the success that we've had with them over on Brilliant Idiots.
And now we're excited to bring them over to Flagrant 2 as well.

We're stoked to be working with them.
So go do that.
Cushy dreams right now.
Let's get back to the show.
Wait, weren't she supposed to spar?
Wasn't Jordan setting up a sparring session?
Shout out to Jordan.
Oh, yeah, Stephanie.
She's like the greatest powerlifter in history.
She's absolutely amazing.
Times her body weight.
It's insane.
I mean, she would destroy me in powerlifting, destroy me, and all those.
It's not even a question.
She'd absolutely body me in that stuff.
Weren't you supposed to spar with her, though?
We were teasing.
We worked out today.
I worked out today with her, and her coach is this bare knuckle guy.
I want to get him on, Jake Boswick.
So we're going to have him on an episode.
He's got amazing stories.
Used to be like a bouncer in the clubs in London, just like crazy fucking stories.
So we're going to have him on, but he's a legend.
But yeah, she could dominate me in any lifting category.
Not even a question.
But I'm sure an average guy who can lift a lot, like maybe Al, could probably be competitive with the best female.
There's some guy, I forget his name, some British guy who was like, I'm identifying as a woman.
And then he's Tubi or something like that.
And then he broke every woman's powerlifting record.
India Poverty Reality Check00:11:14
And he's not even a powerlifter.
Yeah.
He's just black.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy?
That's absolutely crazy.
Really crazy.
So that's why you can't do it.
I mean, I'm shocked.
There's not more pushback from women that are in athletics.
I'm sure.
I'm like mind-boggled that they're not going, yo, This is what we do.
We can't let people in here because then it's going to take away our job.
The entire platform is built on social justice.
If it wasn't for social justice, you'd have no league.
So how can you suddenly come out against social justice?
But at the same time, deep down, they're like, yo, fuck this shit.
You know what I mean?
That's the feeling, but they can't express it.
Yeah, but once they start losing their jobs, they're going to start expressing it.
It's like white landscapers.
Yeah.
Okay, I like this.
The build a wall.
They're like, hey, hey, yeah.
It's like, they're not saying, yeah, of course, the Mexicans are fucking really good at it.
They do it for way cheaper.
So the only way I can combat that is if I create a wall so I can still have a job.
Yeah.
Because I'm not going to do it one that hard and I'm not going to do it for that little money.
So they're like, build a wall.
Use the power structures to stop greatness.
So white landscapers are the reason why they're building a wall.
And white busboys and white dishwashers.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dude, there are white busboys, white dishwashers that are on the streets now, Al.
Yeah, it's a shock.
They are on the streets, bro.
I'm telling you, we're going to go to Phoenix next weekend.
You're going to see dozens of white busboys landscapers on the streets.
Tents, entire tent cities of white busboys, white landscapers, white dishwashers, bro, with not a single other skill in the world.
What is a tragedy?
What happens?
Yo, I bet if they built the wall, the American side, the landscaping would be mad, shoddy, and terrible.
White people just being lazy.
And the Mexican side would be pristine.
What, of the wall?
Yeah.
Yo, that is the same.
Otherwise, there'd be a full-ass garden.
You know what I mean?
Well, manicured.
And the American wall, we'd be like, let that shit go.
Yo, that is a good point.
You should actually ask lawns if you keep them out.
Yeah, but I'm wondering, like, I don't, as great as Mexicans are at landscaping, like, I don't think of Mexico as the most beautifully landscaped.
Because we got the best landscapers.
Yeah, we took the recruit.
Yeah, we got to.
Is that what's happening with India right now and like doctors and shit like that?
Yeah, I mean that sincerely.
That is like a shot.
That's brain drain.
There is a brain drain.
The bright flight.
Wow.
So all the most brilliant, talented Indians get sucked up by like Europe, America.
100%.
Australia.
I have multiple uncles who got paid by American companies.
They were like, come here.
We will pay for your college education.
We'll give you a stipend.
And then after you graduate, you are with us.
Because they know.
They're from the best engineering school.
And then in India, they can't compete because they're like, we can't afford to pay you.
Even the successful companies there cannot afford to pay you what they're going to pay you as well.
And this is America.
Like everything.
The infrastructure is infinitely better.
Everything is better.
Life is easier.
Like, yeah, I'll go to America.
Why would I not?
Oh, fuck.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's tricky.
That is tricky.
That is very, very tricky.
I heard that something similar is kind of happening that in the countries in Europe that have super high taxes.
Like you can go to like Denmark, Sweden, Norway, a lot of their most successful guys will leave because they can make the same amount of money but not get taxed at 70% or whatever the fuck it is.
Yes.
That is the tricky thing about taxes, man, because people are just going to find ways around it.
Yeah.
There's no way around it.
Unless there's a fucking global tax and there's just one global government, none of us want that.
Yeah.
It's all, there's always, you're going to get fucked somehow.
Or, you know what I mean?
There's a downside to everything.
Yeah.
Fucking A.
We should talk about COVID, India, because we were talking about on Patreon and we just got in this huge geopolitical combo.
Geopolitical combo.
Yeah.
It got a little heady.
It was a little highbrow.
Like it was a little bit highbrow.
Yeah.
But yeah, it's just kind of crazy what's happening over there.
Yeah, I don't even think they're last.
I checked, they're at 400,000 new cases a day.
And I heard that that could be underreported.
And this is the thing.
There is no infrastructure.
Which at that point, why underreport that?
You know what I mean?
Like, if the numbers are that high.
Well, they're definitely like going out of their way to underreport deaths.
Like, we cremate bodies, so crematoriums are just non-stop bodies coming in, and then they just write sickness, sickness, sickness.
It's harder to breathe.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
And they're like doing it in the streets.
Yeah, and now they're just doing it on top of buildings because there's no room in crematoriums.
There's videos I couldn't even watch of like a politician like taking some like hospital worker takes an oxygen mask from a poor person like a ventilator and just takes it off of them and you just see that person dying and then they go give it to a politician.
You know what's fucked up?
The UK said something like, you know, we're here to help.
We're here to help India through these hard times.
You know, we always have Indians back and they're like sending like a few ventilators and shit like that.
But they also had a few thousand doses of AstraZeneca produced in India and then sent to Great Britain.
Oh shit.
So it was like it was there.
Yeah.
Had the cure there.
Well, a lot of Indians are upset at the U.S. for not sending their stuff, but I also take care of what to do.
To their point, it was the AstraZeneca shit that we're not even giving out.
But it's like, look, we're going to have to look out for our own people first.
And to be honest, if the Indian government did that, the situation there wouldn't be so bad.
Indian government just tried to profit and be like, hey, well, hey, everybody else, come get this money.
1% of our population is fully vaccinated.
And now you're fucked.
So I don't, you can't.
If I'm going to shit on them, I got to dig up America for being like, yo, y'all looked out for your people.
That's what you're supposed to do.
Oh, here's the water.
That is the tricky thing.
Is like, yeah, we have all this infrastructure, you know, put together.
We have borders and that kind of stuff.
And like, you have the Olympics and you have different rules and regulations, but we all pretend that we're in this together.
We're in the world together, right?
No.
But when push comes to shove and there's actually like lives on the line, you get to see like what a country is.
And a country is essentially my people are more valuable than your people.
Yes.
And that's what everybody's doing right now.
And can you blame them?
No.
Would India do anything different?
I'm sure if they could go back in time, they'd be like, hey, let's do what America did.
Let's keep our vaccines for ourselves, get our people taken care of, and then the rest of y'all can figure your shit out later.
Yeah.
And then America would probably put some crazy pressure on them.
And we would bully them and get some vaccines.
And then we're all okay with that because we're American.
Your tribe is just based on whatever the threat is outside of you.
Like my family over your family at the end of the day.
But if some new motherfucker comes into the studio trying to get, now we're all family against them.
You know what I mean?
If there's a country against country, now the country is my family against your country in a war.
If fucking aliens came, now humans are.
We're the tribe.
All humans versus this alien.
Like this is history.
Yeah.
And like, it's so funny because people can see it now, how like the internal like national tribalism comes up, but then they don't apply it to history.
And like when all these conquests and wars are happening, they're like, oh, man, this tribalism is so fucked up.
And then they see it now.
They're like, oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It has to be tribalism.
It's the only way humans survive.
And again, the Indian government, I think, fucked it.
I'm talking to the funniest comic in India to me, Akash Mita, is keeping me posted on what's happening.
He said the government.
Yeah, I know.
And it's threatening how funny this motherfucker is.
I'm ride with you, bro.
It makes me insecure, but that's my guy.
But he was saying the government sold a bunch of remdesivir and shit to private companies to make money.
Then they're selling it at crazy markups to citizens.
And most of the time, it's not even remdesivir.
It'll just be like fucking Tylenol.
Like that's just fucked at every level.
So what I'm hearing is every level failed everywhere.
You know what's crazy about this, I think, for the average American, is the Indians that we experience in America are either business owners, doctors, dentists, engineers, or tech people.
So you see this community of people that are always in successful positions.
Yeah.
Leadership positions.
Yeah.
Positions that have unbelievable organization.
Yeah.
Okay.
And what is happening in India is completely the opposite.
Yes.
It's complete disorganization.
So I think for a lot of people, the expectations of India are somewhat based on the expectations of Indians in the West.
In the West.
Which is not the fucking case at all.
Indians in America in particular are the most elite Indians who wanted to get out of India, which I understand why.
But like, it's hard to get into America and that benefits America.
We're only taking the best Indians.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, yeah, you see Indians here and you're like, oh, this must be India.
I grew up thinking this must be Indians everywhere.
It's not.
And India Everywhere became a country with all these people.
Like America had such a small population when it was a country, it got to build its infrastructure with its population.
India did not.
We were a country like 70 years ago.
So we're just trying to catch up with everything.
And this is something that it was going to happen.
I was fucking in all.
And you got to give the government credit for a long time.
It didn't blow up.
You have this expectation of India.
And I just wonder if the average American is kind of baffled at what they're seeing.
Because I understand we do have two ideas of India.
We have the poverty that you see in Slumdog Millionaire.
Yeah.
Which to a lot of us was exposed through the movie.
Yep.
Right.
And besides that, you have the tech excellence.
Right.
Even when you watch that show, the Brown dating show, what was it?
Oh.
India Matchmaker.
Indian Matchmaker.
Like, Indian Matchmaker didn't really show poverty in India.
No, no.
These are elites.
Yeah, it felt like the West.
It felt like it could have been Italy or something like that.
Like, it wasn't like super bougie.
I mean, some of them were, but you didn't see the fucking poor, poor.
No, no, no.
Right.
And so I wonder if the average American is seeing what's happening in India and like for the first time in their life, really understanding what it is, what is life experience in India.
Yeah.
And also understanding why we can't just jump ship from China in terms of making things to India that quickly.
Yeah.
Right?
Like I think we've spent on this exact podcast.
We're like, yo, yo, fuck China.
Stop making your shirts in China.
Just make it in India.
India's not there yet.
It's unfortunate.
It is unfortunate, but it's not there yet.
China, we had Sagar, Sagar came to the show this weekend.
Shout out to Sagar.
And he's like, he's like, bro, here's the thing.
China literally, this is the difference between democracy and communism.
Is China literally locked people in the building when COVID happened?
Yeah.
And said if they left, they might not live.
And if all the people in the building had COVID and one of them was running out of oxygen and dying, they just said, that's just what happens in your building.
Maybe we'll bring you food, maybe not.
But the whole building can fucking die.
Democracy, you can't really do that.
And when you can't really do that and you don't have the sophistication of like a Western government and Western organization in there, you have a situation like this.
And it's fucked.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's fucked.
I think a lot of people, I would try to explain like the level of poverty that exists in India.
You truly can't understand it until you see it.
And I think this is the first time people are starting to.
Oh, I think I see what you're saying.
Because I would tell that to people, and they'd be like, nah, man, poverty in America is the same.
And I'm not trying to marginalize anybody's struggle here, but it's not the same.
Vogue Cover Clout Push00:06:58
It's just not.
Like, you see shit there.
You're like, what the fuck is going on?
And I think that's part of why Indians, especially like immigrant Indians, don't have the sensitivity.
Because it's like, dog, I know what real struggle is.
It's not your pronoun.
Fuck you.
Like, I've seen real struggle.
So poverty and relative poverty.
Yes.
And like, you might be in America poor, but you know that relative to how poor you were in India, you are popular.
You made it.
Yeah.
And there's also a thing here where like there's a glimmer of hope to escape poverty.
It's, yeah, there's structures in place.
I'm not downplaying any of that, but I have seen truly inescapable poverty.
There is nothing you can ever do to climb out of this.
And I don't know if in 10 generations down the road, you're probably still going to be doing this.
That's just what it is.
Right.
Unless we fix the infrastructure and all this other shit falls into place.
It's going to take 100 years.
Do you think that we should just feed them Billie Eilish's tits?
We love milk.
We're a milk-drinking people.
Yeah, that's a mango lassie.
Yo, can we talk about Billy?
How old is she?
She's old enough, right?
Yeah, she is.
Find out.
I mean, yeah, she's on the cover of Vogue.
Bro, who knows?
They're putting young girls on the cover of Vogue probably.
She's of age.
She's of age.
Okay.
So this Catholic motherfucker over here.
What?
Yeah, Megan.
She's of age.
The heavies.
She has super heavies and she's dyed her hair.
She's not doing that whole like.
Green.
Yeah, what was the Mortal Kombat character?
Not Scorpion, not Sub-Zero.
Shiva?
Their Green Brother.
That's taking way too long for this joke, Reptile.
Holy shit.
Al, was he in the new movie?
No.
You just knew that from back in the day?
Yeah, that's who I was watching.
Anyway, so she's out here.
And for whatever reason, it's a big fucking deal that she's on the cover of Vogue.
Yeah, I don't get it.
I don't know much about Billie Eilish.
I like the songs I hear.
That's all I know.
Yeah, neither do I.
He seems like an artist, but that's, you know.
I was reading what she said.
It was kind of cool what she said.
What'd she say?
I mean, like, I'm probably going to misquote her, but it was something like: because I didn't wear like super sexy clothes when I was younger, people thought that I was all like for like body positivity and stuff like that.
And now that I'm older and doing it, like they felt like I've kind of like sold out.
Yeah.
And she's like, I just, I want to be desired.
Desire.
I think she kind of said that.
Good for you.
Maybe look at the quote just to make sure.
Mission accomplished.
Maybe she wasn't desired because she was a fucking teenager.
Yeah, that's the way you should do it.
Yeah.
Baggy ass clothes until you're of age and then wear what you want.
Bro, I think we had a podcast where I was literally saying that I get to choose what my daughter wears until she's 18 years old.
Like, this is fine.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You over here want to inject your kids with fucking training hormones.
Okay.
She's going to be wearing some tits.
I can't wait.
Wearing some balls.
But, but yeah, I don't know.
I think it's, I think it's kind of cool.
Let's see what she said.
So she's got this thing.
I don't know.
83.4 million followers.
She's also homeschooled.
So she didn't get that typical high school experience of like being desired, trying to change her looks a billion times.
Like she just learned from her older brother.
And in fairness, I actually thought the photos were like tasteful, I guess.
Yeah.
Like they're not like they're like sexual, but they're not like.
She's like Mary Monroe.
Yeah, they're not overly promoted.
They're tastefully done.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, you know.
It's just a big change from what she's put out in the past.
Like this is the first time she's put out like sexy.
Are people upset about this?
I think people are standing it.
They're like, some people kind of feel like she's switching up on them.
Yo, what happened to her body, her choice?
Why is it that, like, this annoys me about the feminist movement a little bit?
I'm be honest.
Like, they always say, ladies, you can do whatever you want with your body as long as it's what I want you to do with your body.
Yes.
Yes.
Kind of a fair.
Like, yo, if you want to dress like that and show the puppies, then you can show the puppies.
And if you want to cover them with the baggy shirt, cover him with the baggy shirt.
Yeah.
I don't know.
It is like you're a role model as long as you do what I tell you.
Yeah.
Or you do what I agree with.
I just want to model what kind of role you play.
Like, I want to, you know what I mean?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's kind of cool to fit.
Maybe they're like pissed that she's like potentially selling out for the male gaze.
Yeah, because she goes, it's just fat girls upset she's not fat.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
That's all.
Once fat girls lose a fat girl, they're pissed.
You ever notice that?
Nah, that's true.
The second.
Yeah, that's a great point.
Yo, fat girls do not like to look at it.
Rebel Wilson suddenly ain't that funny anymore.
All of a sudden, they're hating on Rebel Wilson.
Adele.
Right?
Adele got skinny.
They were hating on her too.
Fat girls don't like to lose one, bro.
Adele needs to put it back on.
She looked better when she had a little bit.
There are some people who look better fat.
Jonah Hill, Adele.
Jonah Hill looked much better fat.
Much better fat.
He's a much better looking fat.
But good for her.
She wants to show it off.
Show that shit off.
Shit.
I think it is unbelievable.
Unbelievable that any girl who has it physically and doesn't use it, like that to me is unbelievable.
Because think of how hard she got to work in order to get likes on her Instagram posts.
Yeah, that part is kind of cool.
I think she gets more respect for it in that regard.
She built this career off of like talent and personality.
And then she did it when she did it on her terms.
It's not like she was falling off and then she started popping her pussy, right?
Yeah.
She's at the height of her career and she's like, okay, I also got the heavies.
That's cool.
I'm with that.
If everything wasn't working out, she's like, let me put out a sex tape or whatever these cornball bitches do.
Then that's whack.
You already made it without using your body at all.
We had to wait for the wind to hit you in a fucking blouse before we knew that you had some big old tits, right?
Like motherfuckers on Reddit were nerding out.
They're like, yo, does she got some sneak titties?
Nobody knew.
Sneak pigs.
And then she fucking made it.
And now that you want to show it, after she made it on her own merit, on her own talent, you're going to hate on her?
No.
That's the way you do it.
Yep.
That's the way you do it.
She won.
She won.
Because low-key, she could throw the sweatshirt back on and still pop because that's how she was popping.
Or now she could live that easy life just showing off the heavies.
The question is, is she going to go back?
Because now she knows how easy it is to get attention.
You show a little top of your titty and the whole world is having conversations about you.
We never talked about her before on this podcast.
That's true.
You show the top of your titty, you get conversational and flagrant too.
Caitlin, step it up.
Keep showing her flagrant too.
She's doing it tastefully, though.
Because I think there are some women that, you know, maybe made it to where they're at, not being all sexual.
Now they're trying to be sexual and it looks kind of corny or forced.
And so the way that she's doing it, at least right now, it's tasteful and it's like, it's not that bad.
But if she starts, if she starts an OnlyFan, for example, I'm going to be like, nah.
Yeah, because the OnlyFans fans is like, yo, I need money.
Yeah.
Like, she's doing this cover of, what is it, Vogue?
You don't get paid.
I think you get paid.
Grand Wizard Chat Shoutouts00:05:53
Nah.
I think when you do the cover for these magazines, you don't get paid.
You don't get paid?
No.
Nah.
It's just a clout push.
Oh, I didn't know that.
Yeah.
So it's like they're tagging you.
This is the old school tag me in a photo.
Right?
So she's doing Vogue for free for clout, which is cool.
I'm okay with.
And when you go do it, you can't go there with the green hair.
The whole thing about Vogue, I imagine this is a fashion magazine.
You got to copy fashion and do something unique.
Do something different.
Like, be different.
Be a different version of yourself.
And we're going to help you be the best version of yourself that's different and then put you on a magazine.
We're going to want the same image of you before.
Right.
Looking like, what is it?
Reptile?
Looking like reptile?
Right?
Evolved.
She evolved.
Why are you mad at her for evolving?
Yeah.
Yo, God bless Billie Eilish.
And if you really like her music, yo, we're going to find out if people really like her music or they like that she was a fat musician.
You know what I'm saying?
I thought she was a fat musician.
Yeah.
Like, if you just stop liking her music now, that she just shows her tits.
That's weird.
Yeah, you're body shaming.
That's body shaming.
Body shaming.
Yo, she's getting body shame right now, bro.
For having a great body.
For having a great body?
Your word?
That is crazy.
That's disgusting.
I hate seeing that.
Yo, did we turn into a feminist podcast?
I'm a feminist podcast.
We're a feminist podcast.
What else we got going on, yo?
Yo, shout out to DJ Academics.
I got a shout out to the fucking GOAT.
That's my guy.
People have been sending me clips from his Twitch stream, man.
And man, this guy is funny.
I think it is underestimated how hard it is to do what he does.
Like, because he could just talk for hours without anybody.
Like, he's just talking to the screen, reacting to things in real time and being fucking entertaining while he does it.
And he shouted me out, man.
He shouted out our podcast.
I just love, I love DJ Academic.
That's where I get all my fucking news from the hip-hop world.
If he don't post about it, it's not important to me.
That is the litmus test for what is important in hip-hop, right?
Yeah.
And I do a podcast with Charlamagne.
I go to Charlamagne for like cultural black stuff.
Yeah.
Right.
But when it comes to hip-hop, it's DJ Academics.
Yeah.
That's what it is.
I'm in there.
Sorry, Elliot Wilson.
What he said.
Shout out to you, Elliot.
But DJ Academics, my guy.
What'd he say?
Nah, he's just saying some funny shit, man.
He's a funny guy.
That's all I got to say.
He's a funny guy.
But we got to have him on a pod.
You know what I'm saying?
When we're back in New York, we got to get you on, man.
We love you.
We're big supporters.
We're big team DJ Academics on the Flagrant 2 podcast.
So shout out to all the chat I cannot finish.
What do they call it?
Alright, well, shout out to Grand Wizard chat nigga.
He's a real one.
Yo, it's so funny, bro.
Oh, yeah.
He's been a fan.
Yeah, cool.
Yo, it's so funny because if you watch his stream, like this is the academics pull.
Like, I'm not even on Twitch.
I signed up to Twitch to watch one of the streams.
Right.
And if you don't know what's going on, he just calls him Grand Wizard.
So he's like, yo, Grand Wizard, pull that up.
Grand Wizard, pull that up.
And like, I only know Grand Wizard of the KKK.
Like, that's what I know, Grand Wizard.
So, like, I knew about Grand Wizard chat, whatever.
But imagine the person that doesn't.
That's just tapping into the stream.
Does he have a Ku Klux Klan doing all this research?
Yo, I bet he does that.
Next level.
Everybody does that on purpose because I'm going to keep tuning in.
This is black excellence.
They're reclaiming the word.
Yeah.
That's a fire name, too.
Grand Wizard.
Yo, Graham Wizard.
Yeah, that shit slaps.
And they're taking it back.
Good for them.
Damn, bro.
Smart.
How do we feel about that, guys?
I'm okay with it, dog.
I think there should be more black wizards.
Yeah.
Get that shit back from me.
More black wizards.
Yeah, it's true.
Generally speaking, I want black wizards.
I think he did it out of ignorance because I believe he's from Australia.
So get out of here.
Yeah, yeah.
No way.
What is he thinking?
There's no way that's out of coincidence, bro.
Nah, I think it was a coincidence.
There's no way.
Ask him.
Really?
Actually.
Come on.
He knows what he's doing, bro.
I'll check it out.
Probably funny with it.
Excellent.

What else we got?
Van Lathan Oscar Win00:14:02
Oh, we got to talk about our man Van Lathan, bro.
Won the Oscar, yo.
Son, so this is tragic, yo.
Our man Van Lathan wins an Oscar for a short film.
The film wins the Oscar.
Oh, sorry.
The film wins the Oscar.
This is Dove Hayton.
Yeah, this is a very LA theme.
Yo, why would you do that, Doug?
I don't even know the difference.
That was some shade.
That's a shade, bro.
That's some shade.
That's his family.
You don't got one yet?
Not yet.
Not yet.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Amazing accomplishment.
So Van Lathan won best pickup.
So Van Lathan was protecting him in case he was the star of the movie that won the Oscars.
He produced it.
He won all the Oscars.
No, he produced.
He produced.
Because that's what makes him the star.
Exactly.
He's a star.
He's a star producer.
100%.
And called Two Distance Rangers.
And then this chick pops up on TikTok, right?
This Asian chick pops up on TikTok, like, yo, I'm not saying anything, but this story and plot line is very similar to a sketch that I put out.
Now, Two Distance Strangers is essentially Groundhog Day for a black dude.
He's trying to avoid getting killed by the cop.
Yeah.
And he's doing all these things different in his life to avoid getting killed by the copy.
The day keeps happening over and over again.
The day keeps happening over and over again.
And a cop keeps getting him.
Right?
Are you smiling?
I mean, you can't not give that the Oscar.
Yeah.
The white people in that room are like, come on, yo.
Come on, yo.
Last year, it's a movie about one guy getting killed by a cop.
They're like, what if this one guy killed him?
This is their groundhog over and over and over.
Their groundhog days.
Every year we got to get the black shit to something.
Next year it's going to be Inception.
It's Black Guy's Inception, where he goes to an alternate universe and then he gets killed by a cop.
It just happens to every universe.
I can't believe it.
Black guy lands on Mars.
Yeah.
He gets killed by a portion cop.
Cop shoots him immediately.
Like, fuck, dude.
All right.
So then this Asian chick puts out, had put out a sketch a while back called like a day in the life of a black guy.
And I guess.
No, it's literally called Groundhog Day for a Black Man.
Oh, which is a worse title.
It is way worse.
Way worse title.
Groundhog Day for a Black Man.
And it's a sketch where, what, over and over again, he gets.
That dude gets killed by a cop.
He gets killed by a book.
She puts it out in like 2017?
Yeah.
A lot of views.
Now this, you've heard of the company now this.
Yes.
Now this comes and asks her if they can post the video on their platforms.
She acquiesces.
They post on the platforms.
Now, an interesting thing that happened with Van's Two Distance Strangers is it was also produced by Now This.
So the Asian chick is like, hey, yo, this is crazy.
She wasn't coming at the creators of the movie, but she was like, now this is involved.
Is now this taking my product and then getting it made, etc.
I hit Van up last night.
I'm like, yo, Van, what's the deal with this?
And he goes, look, bro, we didn't take that from anybody.
We didn't even bring in now this until after we had done it.
So if there's any person here who's a piece of shit or company, it's now this.
And like, now this saw it pop off on their social media and it goes crazy and they're like, oh, this idea is brilliant.
It got all these views.
And then all of a sudden they hear about this movie that's getting made and they go, oh, we know that our fans love this and this thing killed.
Let's attach ourselves to this idea that we know is going to do really well.
That's the most nefarious approach.
I think there is another approach where the social media team is completely separate from the content acquisition team.
And the content acquisition team is, hey, this is a really good thing.
It goes with our like woke strategy.
We definitely think that this is going to be Oscar nominated.
It could look really good for us.
And it just so happened that they reposted a piece of content, which they probably repost thousands of different videos every year.
Maybe.
And because the brand is linear and they all edit in agreement with each other, they're like, yeah, we liked it then.
We like it.
Who did she email?
They didn't even really.
That's what I'm imagining.
I didn't even make the connection to Van because whatever.
But I remember in her video, she said something about hitting up now this and Netflix and saying something like, hey, would you guys like to do something with this short film?
And then, so you, they contacted multiple departments, I assume, and now this.
Yeah.
It's probably not the same social media team handling the Twitter and reposting as opposed to.
And what often happens is when like a comedian, I think she was a comedian.
I think she worked for like College Humor or something like that.
But like when a creator doesn't have a big backing and they ask a network for a special or something like that, they oftentimes get told no.
And then the same exact idea can get made by someone who's a little bit powerful, a little bit bigger.
This is experienced in our professional career and tons of other comics as well, or creatives as well.
For example, there's a movie someone wants to get made, and then every production company is like, not interested.
And then Leonardo Caprio signs on to the movie and every production company's like, that's a great idea for a movie.
This is just how the industry works.
So what I think is, I think this is like a really shitty coincidence.
Like it looks on the surface like, yo, they robbed that shit and went with it.
Yeah.
But I'm believing it's a shitty coincidence.
Also, that's my guy, Van, and that's what he told me.
So I'm going to choose what my guy tells me.
But what is interesting is that Van also said, like, he's like, he's like, in retrospect, like, I wish we did our due diligence on the idea, like, really looking, because there have been a couple other sketches.
There was even another full-length movie that had a similar plot.
And I was like, bro, like, put that out there.
Yeah.
That helps you.
Yeah.
That just makes this idea parallel thinking.
If there's only two made in the world, then it looks tricky.
Right, right, right.
But Groundhog Day things are pitched all the time.
All the time.
Yeah.
Right?
I mean, if anything, y'all ripped off Groundhog Day.
Which is the same thing.
Bill Murray should be pitched.
I didn't.
Yo, these black people are ruining everything.
Stealing my idea.
It's funny.
White people's Groundhog Day is.
I'm going to kill myself every day.
Groundhog's Day.
Groundhog Day is white people going, I need to kill something.
Black people are just killing, bro.
It really made me appreciate Groundhog's Day when I saw how many people stole that idea after.
And that came out in the mid-90s.
And so they probably stole Groundhog Day.
Yeah.
Groundhog Day is probably ripped off from someone else.
Yeah, I'm just trying to have a nice moment about Groundhog's Day.
He just said it.
Why are you looking at me?
Well, because I was looking at you already.
And then you were like, yeah, like I'm a fucking idiot for not knowing.
But I guess what to finish what you're saying.
I was just saying it's a great idea.
You know what I mean?
You see it stolen all the time in everything.
Well, the repeating days, whatever.
And this is the thing about the internet.
We always talked about this with like comedy, with jokes, et cetera.
It was now that everybody is posting their content, there are millions of videos posted every single day, millions of tweets, ideas, et cetera, posted every single day, right?
You're going to see how often parallel thinking exists.
Before when there was like one special put out a year on HBO or eight specials put out a year on Comedy Central or something, if you saw a crossover between those jokes, you're like, yo, these people are stealing.
You had to know.
Exactly.
Now, when you see a topical joke put up, like literally all you need to do is go into the comments section of any like Reddit thread or even Twitter or whatever, YouTube, you'll see the same jokes written over and over again.
Kind of almost like kind of stopped doing it because I would think of these jokes that were like deep-cut, like goofy, like silly one-liners.
I would like search it on Twitter.
Yeah.
And then someone from like 2012 had a similar-ish idea.
Yeah.
And then I wouldn't do the joke.
Yeah.
And then you just do that with every joke.
And they all have been done in some version on Twitter.
Exactly.
And that's what's being exposed.
Sorry to cut you, but that's what's being exposed by everybody's ability to have a voice is that we're going to have similar ideas.
And it's fucking it's really tricky.
And you know what kind of gets fucked over a lot of this?
Like if I'm to make an argument for SNL is like every time SNL has a sketch that's like similar to like what something a comic put out or a Joke of Kind put out or whatever, the first thing we all jump to is, oh my God, the writers on SNL stole that from that comic.
And that could happen.
But the other thing we have to look at is SNL is competing literally with every other comic in the world.
Who can put out a sketch the next day?
They're not going to wait till Saturday.
Not even a sketch.
A stand-up bit, a tweet, an Instagram post, a quick little sketch that they put on Instagram.
Like they're literally competing with every single idea another comic had in the world.
And if there is at all reflected in their show, then that comic calls him out for thievery, which it could be parallel thinking.
I get why they think that.
I get why they think that.
And you also see a company where people are making tons of money.
And usually it's a comic that's not making anything.
So they're really upset.
But there is parallel thinking.
And that comic is a parallel thinking with other comics, et cetera.
I think that when we always look at ideas as a comic, a lot of times it's not as much like the premise.
It's oftentimes like the vocabulary and words used.
Anytime I've seen somebody like what I thought nip something from somebody or even myself, I'm just like, that's a pretty specific word for that premise.
It's pretty hard to steal a premise, I think.
But in order to steal a joke, it's got to be word for word.
And you notice it.
And specifically the punch word.
Or like an act out or something.
Yeah.
You do the same movement with the slap or something.
Yes.
Or like hypothetical scenarios that are kind of like unrealistic.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like we can think of, you know, definitely when Jamie Fox took the prior thing.
Yeah.
Like that hypothetical was just the same.
Yeah.
Right.
So like you just see it and you're like, oh, that's visceral.
These are the same things that are going on here.
But it's tricky and you're going to see a lot more of it.
And I wonder if it like, I wonder if it actually like is a better creative world when we realize how often parallel thinking exists.
Because then you'll go, okay, it's okay that I do this joke, even though a random person on Twitter in 2012 had a similar idea.
It's okay because so did maybe a hundred other people.
And I'm going to build out this joke.
And I thought of this joke myself.
I didn't, you have to police yourself.
Like I didn't go on Twitter and look for it.
This is my idea.
It just so happened that another person thought this was fun.
And if you did nothing wrong, I actually think it's a nice thing to acknowledge it.
You know what I mean?
Like if you didn't steal, like for example, Lil Nas X, his music video, the Montero one.
Oh, yeah, he definitely saw that.
The graphic.
That's not even a question.
But there's a thing, though.
It's the same video.
So the graphics team that worked on his video also worked on FKA Twigs.
And they should have said something because they just made the same fucking video.
In a way, yeah.
So like specifically in like the poor girl getting abused by gay guys at this point.
Like damn, yo.
Yeah, that video is way more fucked up.
Yeah.
No, but like Montero going into hell or whatever.
Down the pole down the poll.
It's like the same.
Like you ever see like the old Disney shit where they take like the old animation and update it new?
Like it's the same thing with this FKA Twigs girl and her music video.
But what he did I actually thought was a good approach, which was like, yo, the graphics team that worked on my video also worked on this one.
I didn't realize it.
So shout out to her.
Check out all her stuff.
She's awesome.
Yeah, it was cool.
I'm sorry that there's that I stepped on toes or whatever.
Yeah.
It's like you already know.
That's the best way to handle it.
You put out the thing already.
Throw them under the bus.
Yeah, yeah.
Throw them under the bus.
Then you recognize what.
Zero accountability for completely stealing that person's work and blame it on the production.
So that's where it gets tricky is people who do know they're stealing, they're still going to steal.
I don't know.
I don't know if he's still.
But hypothetically, if there's a person who's like, yo, I'm just going to steal.
And then if I get caught, I'll just give it up to that person and be like, oh, I bet.
But in the meantime, I'm just going to keep stealing and creating.
Yeah.
So it's tricky.
And maybe if you're that production company, you really want to do that video and you're pitching your best shit.
What is your best shit?
The shit that already worked with FK Twix.
100%.
I don't, of course, I can believe they'd be like, let's just do the same shit.
Like, we're trying to think of something new and revolutionary for it.
We already did that.
We're trying to save time on new graphics.
Yeah, maybe.
100%.
Yeah, like it's one scene and one little thing.
Like, who's going to care?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's, exactly.
It wasn't the whole concept of the video, but it was just one thing.
But it was cool to see him go out and talk about it.
And I think you're going to see a lot more of that.
And if it's done, I think you can acknowledge it.
If it's something that's ongoing, you can do it differently, like the way Kevin Hart did with Inside Jokes.
And he's like, yeah, this thing already exists.
My bad for stepping on it.
I realized, should have searched it.
Now I'm going to change the name.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I think it's like, I don't know.
If you're not intentionally stealing, I think it's a good approach to acknowledge it.
That's what I said with Kevin.
I was like, I don't think that this is on you.
I think that your team could have looked.
And I also think this is similar to the now this.
I was like, SiriusXM, like, you know, because it's come to you.
Like, right.
So like, this is where people are so excited.
Like, I'm sure SiriusXM was so excited to do a show with Kevin Hart.
They were just like, yeah, whatever you want to do, we'll do it.
But it was cool of Kevin to do that.
I thought it was great.
Right.
So I think.
If you're that Oscar team, I would just be like, yo, this pre-existing short film came out.
It's a similar concept.
And they do a great job of illustrating Black Strife in America.
Yeah.
Check this out.
And the point was not the Oscar or the credit.
The point was the message.
So check this out.
Check out these other guys that have a similar idea.
Check out these other guys.
Because it's for the greater good for illustrating.
The more this idea is out there, the more people it touches, the better.
So check out all of it.
Yeah.
The worst approach is being defensive saying, like, if they came out with a public statement being like, this woman's clout chasing, blah, blah, blah.
Like, that was the worst thing.
Yeah, it was mad funny, though.
Like, because the reaction to the girl was like, shopping on mine, too.
Stop Asian hates.
Why are you stealing black stories?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Literally, people are like, listen, Asian bitch.
Why are you talking about the black struggle?
Why are you profiting off of the black struggle?
Hell yeah.
But it won't go away because normally with these live action shorts that it won for, that can become the full-length feature.
So it's not done.
But let's see.
That happens all the time.
That's why companies in Hollywood are like, we do not accept unsolicited material.
Don't send it.
Oh, it's that intern that opened up something.
Yeah, so what happens with this?
I mean, they keep the Oscar and I think it just goes away.
I think Van will acknowledge it in some way on his pod.
Can she sue?
Can she get anything?
I mean, how are you going to prove for a fact?
She's like a writer's deal copyright.
That's the thing.
The little advice for any writers out there, register your projects with the WGA.
It's free.
It's quick.
At least you're like, you have a record.
Boom.
Yeah.
But then you'd have to prove that somebody saw that and then chose that.
You have to do it really well.
You can at least say, I did it first, whether they stole it or not.
I didn't steal it.
That's for sure.
Yeah.
Because I had this idea registered then.
It's like having a joke on tape.
Somebody puts out a joke and you have a joke.
You'd be like, yeah, but I got myself doing it in 2015.
Exactly.
That's one of the coolest things about videotaping every set is that we got the timestamp copyright of like when a joke is like the first time we ever did it.
The first time ever.
So it's like, I know, even if anybody puts something out like kind of similar to me, it's like, well, we can go back to the tapes.
Yeah.
When did you start working on it?
Yeah.
Because I'll show you when I was doing it.
So that's a nice thing, but obviously not everybody has that ability.
But it is cool once you have it.
Playoffs And Tanking Strategies00:07:56
Like that was the cool thing about Twitter and Instagram.
You get a copyright.
There's your work.
There's your time stamp.
Yeah.
And yeah, to your point about not stealing ideas and how hard it is, not only does everybody have a voice with Twitter, you have a constant access to that voice.
Like you can just constantly vomit your thoughts thousands of thoughts a day.
Like every thought, you can just put it out there.
Even if we all had a voice back in the day with just TV, you had to wait till motherfuckers say, hey, lights camera action.
Now it is non-stop.
Every person has a voice.
It's like the blockchain, bro.
It's a public ledger.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
And you could just like vomit out all these premises that are half-baked.
Yeah.
They're not even like real jokes.
You're like, oh, this is kind of a connection.
And then if anybody writes a joke that's similar, you're like, yo, I tweeted this one idea.
Yeah.
It was like, yeah, you didn't do anything.
Like, where's the work that's put into it?
Yeah, it's a tricky one, but this is what's going to happen now that everybody's putting their content out all the time.
Yes.
So I apologize.
Why don't you break down this whole LeBron thing?
All right.
So the NBA, I don't know if they're going to do this every year or if it's just this year, but just with COVID and the shortened season and all that, they decided for the playoffs this year, the first six teams in each conference, like the first six seeds, automatically you're in the playoffs.
Seeds seven through 10 are going to have to play into the playoffs.
It's a play-in tournament.
If you're the seventh and eighth seed, you play each other, and then the winner of that game goes to the playoffs.
And if you're the ninth and tenth seed, you have to play, and then the winner of that plays the loser of the other seventh and eighth seeds.
So if you're a seventh and eighth seed, you only got to win one game to get in the playoffs.
If you're a nine and ten seed, you got to win two games to get in the playoffs.
So then now you've eliminated two teams.
So everybody thought this was fine.
Everybody thought it was going to be fun.
I didn't hear any complaining about it until the season started getting close to the end.
And then you were one of the seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth seeds.
The Mavs love Mark Cuban, but he could be a real baby.
The Mavs are like seven, eighth seed the whole season, and now this play-in idea is horrible.
Horrible idea.
Never mind the fact that it's going to drum up more interest and get more ratings and get more money.
So everybody shifts lift.
He's like, nah, terrible idea.
LeBron never said a fucking word about it when the Lakers were first in their conference.
Then he had a high ankle sprain.
He was injured for weeks.
Anthony Davis, the second best player on the team, injured for weeks.
They fell all the way to sixth seed.
Tied for a sixth seed.
Tied for sixth seed.
And if there's a tiebreaker, I think they have to go into the play-in tournament.
And now LeBron says whoever came up with this idea should be fucking fired.
All of a sudden, this great idea becomes bad when you are seven or eight.
LeBron, let me just preface this by saying LeBron is such a fucking amazing player.
Okay.
I can't wait to see.
However much he compliments him is how much he's going to insult him.
So cure is no.
Like it is unbelievable.
And listen, do whatever you want with the activist stuff.
Like I don't think he's saying anything unique.
I think we all kind of support what LeBron is saying.
He was a little goofy when he posted a picture of the guy who shot Makaya Bryant or whatever her name is.
But maybe he went out a little bit too early at that.
He's a little emotional.
But yes, everything you're saying as far as activism, I think most people agree with.
You know what I mean?
Like we're on your don't shoot black people.
Yeah.
You're not saying anything novel, but sure.
If you want to use a platform for that, that's great.
But the fucking incessant crying about shit.
Oh, my God.
It's unbelievable.
And it is.
He's a guy who wants to be liked.
Yeah.
And I wonder if he's starting to realize he's, as he gives more of himself, he's less likable.
Yeah.
Like the more we're seeing him tweet, the more we're seeing him involved, like saying, get rid of this tournament just because you're a sixth seed.
You wouldn't give a flying fuck if you were a two seed.
100% would.
I think it's great for the league.
I think it extends the playoff excitement.
Dude, I love it.
I think it gives more people a chance.
I think that's what I'm talking about about basketball right now.
This could get me interested.
Yeah.
Right?
A nice little bit of momentum right into playoffs.
That could be great.
Tell me which teams are out there, which teams are looking good.
I'm with it.
It hurt the Mavs in every way, and I like it because now teams didn't tank at the trade deadline, which kind of makes things more exciting because they're all like, dude, fuck, there's only 12 seeds.
I just got to get to 10, and then I have a shot at the playoffs.
So unless I'm like, there's probably a couple teams really tanking, but the trade deadline wasn't that crazy because people weren't like, let me just dump whoever we're not going to make a playoffs.
That's a great point.
So it maintains competitive edge as you go out through it.
I think it's a good thing.
I don't love that the Mavs.
If you're a seventh and eighth seed, it sucks, but you still only got to win one game out of the team.
So it lends itself to teams that have an incredible player.
So let's say that you're a bum team, but you have one absolute superstar.
An absolute superstar can get you a victory in 100 games.
One guy getting hot, to be honest, a ridiculous J.J. Reddick shooter getting hot one game, gets you in the playoffs.
You're in the playoffs.
It becomes like college basketball.
Yeah.
One game and you advance.
100%.
I think this is a really interesting, compelling idea.
They should be fired, LeBron.
Why should they be fired?
Because they're making the game more interesting.
Yep.
Because they're stopping tanking, which ruins seasons.
And I get why you tank, but it's not fun to watch for 82 games.
They're going to stop tanking.
Because teams that are like an 11th seed, before we're three seeds away from the playoffs, that's so fucking realistic.
It's not bad.
They look at the numbers.
10 games in a row.
Now there is more.
Now, the smarter move might still be to try to tank and get the best player.
And teams might do that if there's like a generational guy.
But if you're like a 10th seed now, you're like, oh, I'm in the playoffs.
I have a fucking chance.
I'm in.
So less teams would result to tanking.
As opposed to eight teams in the game.
Sorry, go ahead.
As opposed to eight teams in the league just not getting into the playoffs, now only four are not getting in the playoffs.
Gotcha, gotcha.
So that's twice as many teams being like, yo, let's just go for it.
I mean, it's kind of cool.
Yeah.
And you have like those teams that are just out of playoff contention that are going, I'm only one game out.
Yeah.
And we get to play each other.
Yeah.
Might as well be in the fucking playoffs.
100%.
So they should just extend it for every placement so you get rid of tanking altogether.
I think that there has to be some incentive to be in the playoffs.
Yeah, but the further back you are, the more games you have to win to make potentially.
Potentially.
Maybe.
Because if they do that, then tanking's gone on.
But you know, you know what, actually?
Sorry to interrupt, but I just realized this.
You know who's going to be in the playoff play-in tournament right now?
And the playoffs would be considerably worse without them?
Golden State.
Golden State, I'm pretty sure, is a 10th seed.
And you know who could win you a game by himself?
A couple.
A little guy named Steph Curry.
He can win you two games, no problem.
A little guy named Steph Curry.
And if he's in the playoffs, it's that much more entertaining.
I don't give a fuck.
Right.
And they're fighting for their lives in the game.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Steph will go off for 60 on that ass two nights in a row, and it will be the most entertaining basketball that we will watch all year.
And he's already, we talked about this when Kevin Durant left.
Sorry to interrupt.
But keep in mind, he's not playing a one seed.
Once the playoffs start, do you have an eight seed against a one seed?
There's no fucking chance usually.
But a 10 against a nine?
Oh, yeah.
That's a game.
I'm not waiting just to be in.
That's a game you could win by yourself.
Oh, yeah.
Because they're also a bum squad.
Yes.
I like this.
Yes.
I think it is such a cool idea, and it reminds me almost like soccer.
Like the relegation thing that you guys were talking about the past episodes.
We're basically relegating teams.
We're creating like a Syria A or whatever within the playoffs is our version of the Champions League.
Is it Champions League that existed like that?
So like that's our version of it, right?
And then we have teams that can pop in and teams that can pop out if they're not good enough.
I think it's really cool.
So funny.
European soccer is trying to make American sports.
And Americans trying to make Europeans.
Yeah.
I think it's such a great idea.
Why does it disenfranchise LeBron again?
I don't understand.
He's a sixth seed, so he has the opportunity of not being there.
It's the same reason why the European clubs don't like the relegation system.
They're like, yo, I don't want to have to fight to be in it.
Like, just let's create the super league where I'm always in it.
Mac Weldon Underwear Loyalty00:02:33
Yo, it is literally what Jordan Peterson was talking about on the Flagrant U episode.
He goes, like, the powerful always fear the great when the powerful were not put there by greatness.
Right?
Because the great, because greatness challenges their authority.
Right.
Right?
And that's what's happening right now.
If you're a sixth seed and you know you could go against someone who might be greater than you, of course you're like, well, let me use some like league authority or power to make sure that that greatness can't oust me from my position.
Yep.
It's so interesting.
Yeah.
And it's annoying.
You're LeBron James.
You're still the best player in the league in the world.
Yeah, who gives a fuck?
You got to do a play-in game?
You got a pee, Mark?
I got a P so bad.
Mark got a P so bad.

I saw it in his eyes.
You guys all peed, so you're welcome.
Yeah, it did feel better.
Thanks, Doug.
I appreciate it.
I always appreciate the ability to pee.
Always.
Why don't we do some Felix and No Facts before we get out of here, boys?
Yes, sir.
What are we thinking?
All right, Josh Duggar, famous for being one of the children on 19 Kids and Counting.
Oh, yes.
Arrested on child porn charges.
Wow.
People 19 kids.
Yes, one of them could go that way.
Bro, that's what I said.
Yeah, I mean, let's just play the odds.
One in 19 people is looking up at child porn, bro.
Yo, that's funny.
One is probably going to be really rich.
One is probably going to be a criminal.
There's a bell curve.
Yeah, dog.
You got an outlier.
You got 19 kids.
They're going to be outliers all over the place.
Yeah.
So we shouldn't be surprised.
No, this is just a probability.
Should we be celebrating the fact that it's only one of the 19?
Yeah, if it was more than that, then you're like, oh, is this a systemic issue?
Yeah.
Was he the oldest?
I don't know.
If he's the oldest and he didn't touch any of his brothers or sisters, okay, that's credit right there.
Credit work credit is due.
I think there was some abuse within the family.
I think that came out like last year or some shit.
I mean, it's got to be abuse.
Like, how do you take care of 19 kids?
There's no way you could accurately, I don't know, care for them.
That's an entire classroom, yo.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's more than a jury, bro.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's just crazy.
Should that be illegal?
To have 19?
There should be a stopping point for sure.
But the government has to come in and tell you.
Yeah, we're trying to be different.
Somebody should.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
China said you can't have two.
We say you can't have 20.
20 lot of kids, man.
Yep.
I mean, it's kind of crazy.
The child, what is it?
The child porn.
He was watching child porn.
Or possession of it or something.
Or possession of the porn.
What is up with that?
Why not just like watch it?
Yeah, why you got to keep it?
That's weird.
I don't know if you could just stream it.
I don't know if you just Google images.
Well, neither do I. You know, I can't fight you on that one, Mark.
You have to download it from like a torrent or something on the deep web.
Oh, words.
How do you know that?
How do you do it?
Bro, I've done research on how to avoid it.
No research.
Yeah.
On how to avoid it.
Why would you need to avoid it?
Avoid getting it.
It could be on the internet.
It could pop up.
Yeah, but why would it just download it?
What internet are you on?
Bro, the internet.
Pitty porn is deep.
He's going deep.
And Pornhub had to take off a bunch of shit for the same reason.
And what?
Pornhub did a whole schedule where they had to take off mad porn because it was like MasterCard was like, yo, you can't buy a subscription to the porn hut no more because we can't guarantee that there's no youngsters on that shit.
Which is kind of fire.
I dig that.
Yeah.
Like Pornhub shouldn't just be this open source for anybody getting fucked on video.
Yeah.
They do a little bit of vetting.
You can't even see it out here.
Yeah.
But that is a good point.
How do you tricky?
How do we all know we haven't watched underage girls in porn?
Chill out.
How do we know?
Chill out.
That's an extra extra question.
Sun said, how do you know that you weren't jerking off?
You probably, you the most.
No, no, that's the point.
I think Al the most.
It can't be me.
This guy's Googling how to avoid child porn.
Yeah, but you kept it quiet about it.
You locked it in.
You lie, bro.
Yeah.
You lie.
You lie.
That laugh is a little guilty sounding.
You know, exactly, bro.
Not his normal.
Yeah.
My arms ain't going up.
I'm just saying, it is possible that we could have watched child porn because the website did not vet the videos.
That's the whole fucked up porn hook.
Should we be able to sue?
Yo.
I think we should be able to sue.
If it comes out that we did, we should be able to sue.
I don't want to see that shit.
I don't want that shit on my conscience.
Never.
How y'all dealing with that?
That's the thing.
That's the issue with Pornhub.
Is they got mad clean clean clean colours is clear?
You don't even worry about it?
Mad clear.
I see the fucking license plate.
I mean, the ID before everybody.
The license plate.
The license plate before you put them in your mouth.
He's stumbling, dog.
He's stumbling.
This guy is stumbling over his words right now because he knows this is a really tricky topic for him.
Dog, if you're into child porn, it's okay.
Like all the women play.
You know what I think he likes child porn?
Because he's when he's jerking off and looking down, his legs look like kids.
Probably because his dick's probably like a baby arm.
Ooh, that was a compliment and a disc.
Yeah, I think I like to accept it.
He's like, that's the reason why.
I guess I was looking at y'all.
I just, it's such a, it's so weird the idea like you would take it with you.
I figure it just exists on the internet.
No, you have to have it.
Here comes Miles.
Miles hasn't said a single thing on any Flavor 2 podcast.
Out of nowhere, off Mike, he goes, No, you have to have it.
What does that mean?
Truffle, can you give the microphone to Molester Miles over here?
Thank God you shave that mustache, bro.
Bro, he said you have to have it.
Have to.
You must.
You must have child porn.
Why do you have to have it?
I used to.
Hold on.
Can everybody take a look?
Hold on.
Hold on, hold on.
Before you finish the sentence, can everybody take a look at what flavor Gatorade he's drinking today?
Lift it up.
They can't see.
Gray.
Good to me right now.
Dude, Miles has no clue what this looks like.
Yeah, because he did not.
Just fog in a cup, Greg.
Gray haze, dude.
Legitimately thought it was blue.
Did you really think it was blue?
Yeah, hilarious, dude.
That's amazing.
Oh my God.
All right, go.
So, back to what you were saying with the porn.
Hold on.
So, why must you have to have it?
Yo, I've never looked at child porn, possessed child porn.
Let me just start off saying that.
I used to download a lot of movies illegally.
Like, I would like blockbuster films.
I would take them off of what about Hyman Buster or anything like that?
Did you download that?
Nothing like that.
But, like, the thing is, when you download something illegally, you have to hold it.
Like, movie.
I used to download all these movies and watch them because you can't just watch it streaming.
Yeah, you can't stream that.
There's no streaming child porn.
Oh, and on top of that, I think it's harder to prosecute.
What do you mean?
If it's like a stream, it's harder to prosecute because you're like, you're not in possession of it.
So you could just say that.
That's what I'm saying.
What's my point?
It's like, why do these people watching child porn need to have it on their fucking computer?
Why don't they just stream it?
Yeah.
I'm assuming it's like dark web sites because you can't just access the sites on the fucking regular internet.
Well, how do you access it on the dark web?
I don't know really how the dark web works, but I think you have to get research.
You have to get a Tor browser and you got to go through the fucking Tor browser.
It's separate.
Motherfucker says, I don't know how it works, and then explain exactly how it is.
Exactly how it works.
Look at his hand.
Yo, what is consent?
What's grabbing his head?
He's sitting on his palms right now.
What is consent?
Tell me what consent is.
Look at it.
What is consent?
Motherfucker's like this right here.
So I'm going to get into this rock.
Look at that.
Andrew said.
Andrew.
What is consent?
What is consent?
What does it mean?
I'm not raising women.
Look at all this.
What is consent?
No one will tell me what consent is.
All he keeps saying is consent.
Isn't that so crazy?
I'm in a room full of people that don't know what consent is.
How shameful is that?
Crazy.
Now you try to do this.
I'm in a room.
People don't know consent.
They don't.
What is consent?
Of course I don't know.
Exactly.
So what is consent?
You got to stop watching kids, bro.
You got to stop.
You got to stop watching consent.
What is consent?
What is consent?
Okay, so Al doesn't know what consent is.
Our business doesn't know what consent is.
Andrew doesn't know what consent is.
I don't know what consent is.
I do know what a kid is.
You do too.
Intimately.
Well, listen.
That's funny.
You know how to get the porn.
I'm not saying that you've gotten it, but you know how to get it.
Bro, you don't know what consent is.
And you know how to not get caught.
Mark knows what consent is because the kids never give it in the videos.
And he's like, man, it's so much better this way.
How did it go in the beginning?
What?
With consent?
You just have to ask if you want to have sex.
And then if the girl says, the girl says no.
What?
You heard that came from the banks right there?
The girl says no.
What?
The motherfucker's on the teacups right now.
He's trying to stop it from spinning.
That's what consent is.
You have to ask if you want to have sex.
The girl says no.
You don't have to say consent.
Yeah, I know.
I don't even know what that is.
Why are you deflecting, yo?
What is consent?
They're orphan.
What is orphan mean?
What does orphan mean?
Bro, what is consent?
It's a hard knock loss.
It's a hard knock loss for us.
Man.
But yeah, you sound like Al with your adeptness and deflections.
He's deflecting.
Yeah, you have to ask me to have sex before you have sex with him.
But not kids.
But what are you talking about?
They're breaking it.
They're not doing it.
If you're a kid, you should still ask for consent before you have sex.
Mark, what are you talking about?
16 years old, you're going to have sex with another 16-year-old.
You should ask for consent.
I don't understand how this is controversial.
Why are you saying hanging, dog?
Yo, he fucking sweat.
He looks like me right now.
This guy's sweating at his room.
He's like, Mad Cool.
Yo, whatever he's squeezing right in his right hand, that shit has been mushed.
That shit has been mushed into a little.
Yo, get to the why.
That's a baby bell thing.
You motherfucker turn that shit into a fucking pebble, son.
He just created that.
No one knows what consideration is.
Which I think is fucked up.
You have all these grown men sitting in a room not willing to denounce rape.
That's terrible, bro.
We just figure out how to do it.
No one's willing to say this is fair.
It's a good thing.
Because I think everyone should have a lot of people.
It's crazy that you're going to sit here and say that rape is okay.
I think it's sad.
As a man, like all the fun, you stand up for women.
How many points are you serving right now, son?
You guys are a waiter, son.
I love rape, and I think that consent should be asked for every interaction.
It's a sentence, bro.
And no one here is willing to tell me what consent is, bro.
It's crazy.
Hey, we watched your mark breakdown, bro.
I'm not losing.
I'm not losing.
Mark, this is not losing.
Next time, I'm going to be able to get it by moving on to Lansing.
Shout out to me.
And they're not going to make me.
They said the best landscape.
Take it off the wall.
He's still looking at the camera.
He's not talking about the camera.
He's looking at.
Go to Anthony's Pizza.
The one that's the pizza.
They're the best.
You said it, nigga.
You spit it.
You sit it, nigga.
You spit it.
Look at those.
And I'm never, I'm not losing.
That's so crazy.
People look overpowering.
It's all strategy.
He's got to be.
Andrew will try to overpower.
Andrew tries to just talk over you and pelt you and pelt you and pelt you.
And I'm not letting him do it.
I'm not on the ropes.
Bro, he's tugging on the corner of his shorts.
That shit is.
Turned his mic off.
Tell, bro.
There's a podcast full of rapists, man.
This is what rapists would do.
It's because they're taking away my ability to speak for myself.
And that's what rapists do.
And that's why we need the Me Too movie.
Mark knew he entered a battle.
That's how it goes, man.
Because he pelts.
He just keeps on shooting.
And I won't let him get a shot off.
I won't let him get a shot off.
No, that's how it goes.
You got to keep on shooting.
And until the round goes up, I won't.
Why would you talk about it?
I will die before I get beat in this argument, okay?
Because I think consent is important.
Threesomes with molesters, bro.
That's disgusting, dog.
Two 16-year-olds having sex with an adult is still wrong.
Yeah, dog.
I would never say that.
It's still wrong.
It's actually more wrong.
Hit it's the most right.
I would never say that.
He is French.
The age of consent is probably younger than maybe you were in France when you watched this.
And to this day, no one has said what consent is, bro.
Consent is 18.
And how do you know that, bro?
That's so fucked up that Andrew knows the age of consent, dude.
How do you know that?
That is weird, right?
That he would sit here and pretend.
Yo, it's fucked up.
I do doubt.
I know that.
I know.
I would fuck up if he knows that.
I was down to spit it with you.
Like, come on.
Why does he not know the age of consent, bro?
Are you just doing bliss?
What is consent?
And by bliss.
What is consent?
Describe your bliss.
What is consent?
What is consent?
I answered your question.
Consent is what those girls never gave, bro.
Yeah.
Consent is what those girls never gave in the videos you watched.
You stripped their consent from them.
Bro, what is consent?
Consent is.
That's not exactly.
I know.
That's not exactly.
He's malfunctioning right now.
Why did you try just something else?
Just pivot.
You can't give up.
You're asking about pizza or something.
What is math?
Math is not history.
What does that even mean, bro?
You can't just say what something not as something is, bro.
I could be like, we should lose, bro.
This is Rocky, dog.
I'm refusing to lose, okay?
And I'm in my own battle right now.
Mark, you're battling for child fucking.
Yeah, that's no, you're battling for rape, though.
That's the loss.
You said though.
You battle for rape.
You said though, as if, like, I accept what you say.
But no, I never said though.
You're battling for a moment.
You're battling for rape, though.
Yeah, child fucking, but you rape, though.
You're battling for it.
We're just saying you shouldn't watch child porn.
And I'm saying you shouldn't rape.
That's the point.
You guys should not be raping.
Hey, that's also true.
But exactly.
Hey, we agree with you on that one.
You ready to agree you shouldn't watch child porn anymore?
I'll agree with that.
It took a long time to get there.
It did.
It turned into a real Bill Clinton thing.
You're pointing this finger, and then you're like, What is is mean?
Or whatever the fuck you say so much worse for yourself.
Whatever steadfast determines he had to not get spun, you spun yourself the whole time.
Something happened the last time he was in the spiral that he was like, This will never happen to me.
You know how like Asians be training at thousands of years for revenge?
Yes.
Like, that's what he did.
Like, I was in the shower.
I was just like, okay, keep going, keep going, keep going.
Think of something, come up with something else.
I was trying to say, you can't say it's like a thing, my little kids.
But you kept saying the wrong thing.
You kept saying the wrong thing.
Like, you were trying to prove that you don't watch child porn and you just kept repeating over and over, what is consent even?
And you never answered.
That's not what you said over and over again.
We were like, you watch child porn.
I'm like, what is consent?
What is it even?
Like, why do we even have it?
There's no good definition.
There's no good definition.
That's what you're telling me.
But why were you asking me how to find child porn?
I know that's that strategy.
Next time I'm in a suitcase.
God, we asked the one man when you're in the middle of the day.
You literally find it back in.
Andrew, you want to get in the middle of the porch?
You got to find child porn.
How do you find it on the internet?
No, you said how do you use it?
You said how to use the dark vibes.
Surfshark Dark Vibes Promo00:02:15
You said how to use the dark bed.
How do you know how?
Go back, play back.
You said, how do you use the porn?
You're giving us step-by-step of how to access it and avoid it.
It went like this.
He goes, he goes, he goes, I don't know how to use the dark bed, but I mean, you got to go to a torrent and then download.
He's like, you got to get Surfshark.
Surfshark can save you 83% again.
Nah, PBM won't get you there, but this is brought to you by Surfshark.
Y'all couldn't use a competitive VPN, bro.
Y'all couldn't use a different one.
Just ruined our whole relationship.
Nah, but shout out to Surfshark.
Oh, my God.
I was fighting for my life, bro.
Not well.
Yeah.
Nah, that's the thing.
I didn't get the shots off.
Yeah.
That was a strategy.
We were shooting, bro.
That shit was fun.
You kept shooting yourself, quite frankly.
I don't know who worlds you was just in.
You just got bucked.
I was just watching you fold up that wax, bro.
That shit was so funny, dog.
I'm just.
I made art.
I made art.
I was pointing at that shit because his hair was mad clitched.
Super tense.
How do you make diamonds?
How do you make diamonds, though?
Answer that.
How do you make diamonds?
Pressure.
With wheels of cheese, bro.
That's how it's done.
All right.
So rape is bad.
Child porn is bad.
I think we can both agree.
Would you like to suggest another topic, Mark?
The first topic he suggested.
We said, Mark, feelings of facts.
Take us through it.
How do y'all feel about kid fucking?
And you said we've all seen child porn.
I said we made.
He's the most Catholic he ever been, bro.
That's the most Catholic he ever been, bro.
Why is that?
You accuse him of molestation.
You're just like, what?
Who cares?
What about rape?
Are you going to beg for your forgiveness of your sins?
That's what I need to know.
Yeah.
And then you just shuffle me around to a different part of the room.
I mean, just keep on moving.
Yeah.
All right.
What else?
Other topic.
Come on.
Next topic, bro.
Next topic.
I think we got enough.
You think we got it?
Yeah, I think we got it.
Oh, that's a good one.
Let's end on a high.
We could do one more.
In case we caught anything.
Oh, no.
That's all staying there.
Yeah.
What's wrong with that?
Yeah, Miles.
Do you have a problem with the two conclusions we came to?
Child Porn Accusations Explained00:08:03
Do you want to get into a good connection?
You want some smoke, Miles?
Wasn't it Miles who started it?
Yeah.
What did he start with?
You know what Mark gets credit for all Miles' ideas?
That is a good point, actually.
It really backfired on you.
Yeah.
You got your karmic revenge, Miles.
I do admire the determination, bro.
Yeah.
You are not going down.
I'm going to let it happen.
I learned that from you.
I mean, it didn't happen.
That's the strategy.
Yeah, that's the thing.
You just got to talk over them and just walk them down.
Nah, because, but then you could cut it.
Why?
Because it only works if I'm still engaging with you.
But then, if I start talking about you folding the wax, then it undercuts it.
Yeah.
Don't think he doesn't know how to disarm his own strategies.
Don't think he hadn't thought that through.
He almost got me.
I almost existed.
So you did have to disarm it.
I didn't have to do it the wax.
You did have to disarm it or not?
I had to shake things up.
Notice that he did have to disarm it, that the strategy was working.
And he was like, all right, final disarm it.
No, it almost worked on me.
I almost engaged with.
Yeah, I saw you coming in.
Yeah, that's how I pulled out.
He's like, nah, nah, good idea.
We'd idea that.
Got you.
So it was working.
That's great.
I think that was a victory.
No, it did work.
It was great content.
Yeah, it was a victory for the podcast.
A victory for the listeners.
It was very good.
I don't even know if it's listenable, to be honest with you.
No.
It might not be listenable.
It's going to be pretty good.
But somebody has to do somebody, please make a video of the cheese wax slowly becoming the cube.
Because I remember you finishing it.
You finished it.
I saw you take almost your last bite.
Yeah.
And then it became that.
Bro, it's Transformers, dog.
Yeah.
It's all spark right there.
It really is.
All right.
One more topic.
One more topic, Mark.
All right, guys, we got some shows coming up, man.
The tour is in full motion.
We got a big announcement that's going to be coming, I believe, next week or the week after.
Very excited to share that with you guys.
But go check out what we got right now.
I know we're sold out in Phoenix this weekend, in Tampa next weekend, but I think we got a few tickets left in Virginia Beach the weekend after that.
Orlando, I think we added another show.
St. Louis, we might be adding another show because I think that's sold out.
Then San Antonio, go check that out.
Denver sold out.
Shout out to Denver.
We got Omaha.
Go get those tickets.
And then Charlotte, North Carolina, go get those tickets.
And then next week or the week after that, we got a big announcement.
I'm very excited to share with you guys.
DeAndreSchultz.com for those tickets.
Go get them.
Before they're sold out, you got to pay 10 times the fucking price on the internet.
It's crazy with these, what's it called?
Scalpers?
The scalpers are charging us.
It's just fucking insane.
So go get them right now.
Akash, what you got cooking?
Get there early so you don't pay the crazy markup.
You just got to do it.
Buy early.
For my shows, you can buy pretty much up until the week of, but they're starting to sell out.
So you better get your tickets.
Don't fuck around.

And now let's get back.
Morgan Whalen, I invited the Billboard Music Awards due to recent conduct, which is disputable.
It's a tragedy.
It is a tragedy.
Tragedy.
Tragedy.
And he stopped his tour and he took a bunch of time off and put some posts out on Instagram saying he's trying to unlearn bad behavior.
What do you think?
Seems like there's a lot of support.
A lot of people got his back.
Yeah, this is weird.
Again, it's this performative wokeness shit where it's like we're doing it to say we didn't do it.
And this is annoying.
I thought about the Morgan Whalen thing because after he said the M-word, like his music listens skyrocketed.
Yeah.
But I don't think that's a reflection of people going, finally, I found my musician.
I think it's a reflection of people who didn't know who Morgan Whalen was Googling the country singer who said the M-word and then checking out his music.
Right.
Like, I never listened to Morgan Whalen before he said the N-word, and then I listened to a song.
How was it?
Slapped?
Yeah, it was pretty good.
I thought the music was pretty good, to be honest.
I'm sure he's pretty good.
Yeah.
So, like, is that the right strategy to get your streams up?
It's not a bad strategy.
If you can stand in the fire, you will win.
Is it an ethical strategy or is it an effective strategy?
It's unethical.
Yeah.
But is it effective, especially if you know that your fan base will forgive you for that?
Like, if your fan base will forgive you, but now the whole world was talking about it, like, he gets another buzz right now.
People are going to go back, listen, and you actually got good music.
Yep.
I mean, it's a fancy.
And he said all the right things.
He did apologize.
I'll work on myself, but his name is out there.
His name is out there.
There's this rapper that I'm kind of fascinated with, even though I don't listen to music that much.
I did like one song, NLE Choppa.
Yeah.
Did you see recently what happened?
Yeah, he got into a fight at the beat.
Got into a fight on the beats.
Posted by DJ Academics.
Let's go.
They jumped this one kid.
But his friend, the kid's friend is there, and the kid's friend breaks up the fight, but they don't attack the kid's friend at all.
It's really odd.
I'm almost like, is this set up?
Yeah.
I don't know.
I hate that shit.
What is that?
No, I just hate when somebody gets jumped by that many people.
Like, come on, just shoot a fair one if he's by himself.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Al's honorable in his fighting.
That's why he's six and four.
There's honor in that six-year-old.
Two of the losses were jumps.
That's why I don't like the jumps.
Oh, you shouldn't have to count it.
That's not as a lot.
It was two people.
That's still a jump.
Yeah, two-on-one.
But I feel that I had I. You had people I could beat up with one of you.
My record was skyrocketed.
That actually is a great point.
Yeah.
It depends on who the one is.
Exactly.
I just, yeah.
So you're really six and two.
Yeah.
Eight fights.
Yeah.
Any knockout losses?
No.
Never able to drop somebody.
No, losses.
Oh, I never got dropped.
No.
But I got stomped out in my face.
That was pretty bad.
What happened?
No, I mean, one of the jumps.
Yeah, what happened?
You went like that.
Yeah, but they were stomping.
And then how does that end?
I think they just had pity on me because I was just on the ground covering my head.
How did that start?
Probably, I believe that one was over a basketball.
Okay.
Yeah.
Like, I wanted my basketball back and they wouldn't give me my basketball back.
Oh, they stole your basketball.
Yeah, they were trying to stop.
No, but you walked away with some respect off of that, weirdly, probably.
You kept your basketball or you lost your basketball?
No, I still lost my basketball.
Yeah.
But it's the principle, bro.
Yeah, but you stood on principle.
And even if they're getting you and they're ganging up on you and you got jumped, you can still fight.
You know what I mean?
And it matters about the heart that you put into it.
I should have asked for a cassette for that game.
Yeah, that's what it was.
Exactly.
Yes.
But you notice how he just took it and then it ended?
Yeah.
Yeah.
There you go.
I mean, I can't wait till the next time we get Mark.
This is going to be.
He's going to have a whole new strategy.
He's just going to start speaking different languages.
He's going to say, oh, see, can you see?
He just said the anthem.
You're going to have something up your sleeve.
100%.
Yeah.
I thought I had something for this time.
And I think I actually did better than the last time.
I don't know.
No.
Nah, this is more endearing.
This is better.
Yeah.
For you, it's better.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, no.
For you, it's better.
That's part of the reason why I wear hats all the time because when I'm in a spin cycle, I start sweating.
When they catch on to that shit and the lip.
You get the lip, but you get the lip quiver where your top lip just goes up.
I have empathy for people in the spin cycle because I hate when I'm in it.
But this time you really fucked yourself.
Manchester United Ownership Issues00:15:38
Nah.
I'll punch people.
I didn't have any sympathy for you.
Yeah.
That's the thing.
Yeah.
You have sympathy when you just get pitiful.
And you just go, I have mine.
No, no, no, no.
If you're like trying to battle, but you're just like, you would just try to over talk.
It wasn't creative.
And you just kept over talking about saying nothing.
Nah, it was a horrible strategy.
It was a horrible strategy.
The way it was supposed to go is that you're talking about it.
The spin cycle is funny.
Like, Akach had me in a spin cycle last week about the fucking people on the money, and I was crushed.
There's nothing I could say.
Yeah, we got other people's money.
I did let them.
So, do you know how many of them reached out to me?
So many of them reached out to me with facts, bro.
They just hit me with bullet point facts.
People reach out to me.
Yo, help your man.
I was like, who's on the money then?
This guy's making jokes about my people dying.
So I went to the bottom.
We got to go.
We got to go.
I was spinning, bro.
I had nothing to do.
And then when he started doing a little boy voice to me, that shit fucking drove me crazy, bro.
Come on.
I should have used that.
You probably would have got your dick card talking.
Jesus gracious.
Yo, do you want to?
I don't know if we care about that last topic.
Do you want to talk about the fans storming Liverpool versus Manchester United?
Oh, yeah.
What is that?
That seems wild.
Yeah.
So basically, Liverpool's playing Manchester United, their arch rival, and they're playing at Old Traverse, which is Manchester United Stadium.
Okay.
And before the game, protesters came out on the field, started going crazy and lighting off like smoke bombs and like protesting with big signs against the Glazer family, which is an American family that owns Liver or owns Manchester United.
Okay.
And basically, they're protesting for a slew of grievances that the Glazer family has done to Manchester United, as well as the whole Super League nonsense that happened.
So they're protesting the ownership?
Yes.
Whoa.
That's pretty effective, to be honest.
And so they postponed the game.
They're like, the circumstances are too.
Is this common?
I felt like the city loves the team.
They love the team, but they don't like the ownership.
Because even when the owners took on the team, when they bought Manchester United, I don't even remember when, they did it through like this shitty financial strategy con where basically they took out loans against the team in order to buy the team in the first place.
So it was like financials.
Yeah, they bought out the shareholders between 2003 and 2005.
Yeah.
So they slowly bought out the people who owned it.
So they illegally got it.
By taking loans out against the team.
It's like, oh, fuck.
They bought the Eiffel Tower by being like, hey, you want to take a loan against the Eiffel Tower?
And they're going, yeah, they'll win.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
So, like, that's a simplified version.
And so they started with that.
Then they started losing records after Alex Ferguson retires.
And then just slowly, slowly, the essence and the core of the team went from amazing and like winning the Premier League to now being like good and competitive.
See, when I first heard it, I thought it was just like spoiled fans.
Like, man, you, I always remembered hearing they were so dominant and now they're not.
Not that they were just mad about that.
But having shitty ownership just ruins everything.
It just trickles down into everything.
There's nothing you can do.
This is actually the only way fans can fight back.
It's fascinating.
Because if you think James Dolan, James Dolan fans going to MSG and saying, fuck this.
We don't want to see the game.
We don't support the team.
That's fired.
But let's do it.
That family also owns the Buccaneers and they just want a Super Bowl.
Yeah, so they're kind of like, shut your mouth.
We're going to figure it out.
I think it's an easy way.
It's just like Americans coming in our turf with such an iconic sports club.
But you think it's an American thing.
My understanding is: was it Manchester United was owned by the Russian oligarch?
One of them got bought by a Russian oligarch.
Kai Bromovich.
By Ibramovich, yeah.
Maybe.
I don't know what team that is.
Huh, okay.
But yeah, this is interesting.
I wonder if this keeps happening.
I'm sure it does bother you more that it's American, though, because it's like, first of all, you kind of got the team through ill-gotten means.
Second of all, cool, y'all are great in America, but you don't know how this shit works.
And then that's in the back of your mind with every grievance you have: you don't understand this game.
And then at a certain point, it's like, all right, fine.
You can do American sports, but you don't understand how the fuck this works over here at all.
You have no clue.
That's interesting about like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like all the American owners are the ones that were like, let's just form a Super League.
Who gives a fuck?
And then they're going to be like, yo, y'all don't fucking get it.
Like, this is not for you.
They say, what is it?
Winning cures all.
Yeah, winning cures everything.
I think.
Winning cures everything, whatever, but losing exposes everything.
Yeah, that makes sense.
So it's like, if they were winning, I think everybody would be cool with this like American owner.
Maybe they did some shitty things.
They're just bringing over innovative styles from America.
They have techniques that work in the NFL that they brought here.
It's brilliant.
Yeah, but the second you're losing, it's how dare you change the culture.
Yeah.
And do you think this will start happening with all the other teams around the world that also have foreign ownership?
Maybe so long as the foreign ownership is fucking up the culture of the team as the fans see it.
As the what?
As the fans see the culture of the team, if the ownership comes in and starts influencing the culture in a negative way.
Right.
But they never do it in a positive way.
Like if Saudi money buys Manchester City and they start winning the Premier League.
They're not like Saudi Roman sucks.
Our culture is losing.
I'm fine with that.
If Saudi money bought the Dallas Cowboys and started winning Super Bowls, I'm so okay with it.
Dude, that's how badly you would.
I don't know how you put that genie back in the bottle, but if this becomes a thing.
It's a weird dude.
Because they're sad.
Yo, I could say that.
I'm close enough.
Yeah, you're right.
You're right.
But if it becomes like, yo, we don't like our ownership.
We're going to protest and raise fucking hell and calls mayhem until they sell.
That's cool if you got shitty ownership.
But then at a certain point, it might get to be like, we're protesting for nothing at a certain point.
You know what I mean?
If every team, like if Knicks fans are like, oh, fuck that, storm the court, whatever.
Bet.
I get why you want to get rid of Dolan.
But at a certain point, I don't like this one season.
I'm fucking up everything.
Sell the team.
It's like, you know what I mean?
Okay, here's a question.
If the team is tied to the city and it leeches off the identity of the city, is it weird to say that the owner should have to be from the city?
Interesting.
Like, you are representative of the city.
The players are no longer representative of that city.
I'm sure, like, at some point in time in history, the majority of the players from the team probably were from that local area.
And then obviously, as this game becomes a global game, you're going to want the best teams.
The teams with the most money are going to be able to buy the best players, blah, blah, blah.
I'm fine with it.
But I wonder if you just make it, if you really like drive in the identity of the city, why the richest person in that city or the person that can't afford it has to be the one who owns it.
I wonder if that makes sense.
And maybe that'd be kind of cool.
Or maybe you can own the team, but there's still a local board that has some say in it.
The board thing is always curious to me because now you have these people that potentially are pointed, but they're not pointed based on their investment in the game or their merit.
Like who is the board?
And who decides who's the board and how much decision-making power do they have?
And if I'm the average billionaire, I don't want a board telling me what the fuck I can do.
But it would be cool if the richest person in the city just owned the Knicks, which is Dolan, and it sucks.
But it's like, I think he's a New Yorker.
Is he not?
I don't know.
I think so.
I'm saying, like, as the Cowboys, I know you're saying right now, yo, if Saudi money wants to win this, it'd be great.
But you know what would be really great?
If a fucking Dallas native won the Cowboys.
New Yorker owns the Knicks.
Fire.
Right?
Yeah, I guess Dolan is.
There's so cool about that.
I guess Dolan would be a New Yorker, but then he wouldn't have been able to buy in the first place.
Yeah.
Whatever the phase is.
But would that be weird?
Would that be a shitty requirement?
I guess because now it's suddenly not a private thing anymore.
Now it belongs to the citizens of the.
And is that just what happens if a team gets big enough, if a support gets popular enough?
Like, now it's suddenly not private.
Now you belong to the citizens.
And the price of the teams would go way down.
It would plump because there's so few people.
You kill a free market, too.
You would destroy the free market.
I mean, there's no way the teams would actually go with it.
Yeah.
But there is something interesting.
He was born in Massapequa.
Massapica Long Island.
Yeah.
Wow.
I don't know if he grew up there, but it's like where his parents are from.
It's usually like if there's that, their business is within that city.
Like Juventus is probably owned by like the Elkin family that are part of Fiat and Ferrari.
But then like Milan just won or Inter Milan just won Syria yesterday.
Chinese owner, Zhang came in, probably owns 0.37%.
But to answer the point, if you're winning, hey, that's great.
They're not complaining.
But if you're losing, then fuck that.
I don't want China to own the Knicks.
No, I agree.
Fuck that.
Even if they won, every year they won.
I wouldn't want Great Britain to own the Knicks.
I wouldn't want any other country to own the Knicks.
I mean that sincerely.
I would be upset.
So you're okay with American owners not owning soccer teams internationally?
Yeah, I'm fine.
And I'm totally fine with them being upset about it, especially if it looks like these American owners don't give a flying fuck about the sport.
They just want to make money.
If I were you guys, I'd say, fuck you, get the fuck out of our sport.
I'm in favor of the protest.
I think we're all in agreement here.
I thought they were just spoiled, but that makes a lot of sense.
Yeah.
Especially the way they bought the team is fucked.
Son, I don't even like foreigners to be able to own apartments in America.
I mean that sincerely.
I'm against it.
You mean foreigners like they don't live here, foreigners?
Yeah, like there's value.
You're just driving prices.
They're living in China.
Well, because of that, they put taxes on if you don't have residences.
Real quick, in foreign countries, oftentimes poor foreign countries, they don't allow non-nationals to own property.
Like, I think, in order for you to buy a place, maybe it's not Bali, but like in Bermuda, for example, you have to be a national to own a place there.
And I get it because Singapore, you said, I think.
I think Singapore.
And so they have these.
Hawaii has that rule, I believe.
I think you have to live.
Oh, is that right?
And what they're doing is they're protecting the people that live there to a certain extent so that they don't make that land too expensive for them to actually own.
In New York, too bad.
The average New Yorker won't be able to own their fucking apartment.
Never.
I think Costa Rica even has like, they have a heritage thing.
Yeah.
Like you have to have like a certain amount of Costa Rican blood just to own specific land.
And I think initially you didn't.
And they had these like crazy squatters' rights down there where like people would like buy places and then all of a sudden they go back there in six months when the rainy season was over and there'd just be like families living there.
And I think they have some rights there where they can if you just don't show up at the place.
But I like the idea of heritage.
I like that because you're not inflating this market because a lot of these people, like especially in China, Russia, they're just taking their money out of China or Russia because they don't know if it'll be valuable.
And they're just dumping it in New York real estate.
And then the realtors make tons of money and the developers make tons of money.
But the average New Yorker can't live in the fucking neighborhood they grew up in.
Yeah.
And I'm not talking about like there's a difference between free market and the free market globally.
Like you can have the free market within your country.
But let's not act like we abide by what is it, not the word, abide by the same rules.
It's like tariffs and shit.
No, they're tariffs.
Like you want the free market, but you don't want to pay free market prices in other countries, right?
Like we got the minimum wage over here.
You're not paying that for the Nikes to be made.
Right.
So you are totally okay taking advantage of other countries' labor practices.
That's right.
But when we go, hey, we don't want them to take advantage of our real estate market, you're like, oh, no, that benefits me.
Yeah.
Maybe I'm missing something here.
I don't know.
Like, how do you prevent that from becoming like just discrimination?
It is discrimination.
Discrimination.
I want to discriminate towards us.
In the same way, I want us to have vaccines.
I want us to be able to buy property.
I want every American to have the American dream.
No, in real estate, storage of wealth of some rich Russian oligarch or rich Chinese oligarch.
It is irrespective of race or even where you're born.
It is respective of where you live and spend your time.
If a Chinese person moved from China, immigrated, lived in New York, bought property, I don't think he'd have a problem with it.
Nope.
I think he has a problem with people who live in China, have money they don't know what to do with, buy an apartment in America, in New York, raise the rent, and then stay in China.
And that's just happened in when we put in Vancouver.
Put a tax.
So in exchange, you can do that, but then you can put a tax on those folks for not being there.
100%.
And I know there's people probably looking at this right now, like, well, what do you think New Yorkers do with the real estate in Florida?
They probably price it up super high because we buy places to be there for a couple months.
And I understand if you're frustrated with that.
I get that totally.
I just think that maybe I'm sounding like some fucking Bernie Democrat right now, but like, you should be able to afford to live in the place you fucking grow up in without any market manipulation from outside sources.
So if there was legislation against it, you'd be like, yeah.
I don't want the legislation.
It's weird.
I guess you need to.
I don't want to have to do that big tax or whatever like that.
I don't want that, but I understand places that protect themselves.
I understand the Costa Ricans going, yo, chill, chill, chill, chill.
We're not going to let all these fucking Americans and like Europeans go and buy up all this fucking land and then make these resorts and the people have no place to even potentially gain wealth.
Right.
Like you buy up all the land.
Like what do they say the biggest issue with the black wealth disparity in America was?
The inability to get loans, the redlining.
So you couldn't build up that wealth.
So what do we do?
We just run to all these other countries and then we just buy up their land and then they don't have the ability to increase their wealth as their value of their land increases.
I don't mind it nationally.
If you live in another state, you want to buy property, maybe it's because I was looking to do it a while ago.
But I didn't mind that.
Internationally, I see how it's like, what are you doing?
I mind it less.
Yeah.
It's one country to me.
But if it's somebody from Brazil coming here and buying a spot and it's just empty and then it just raises the property of everything else, it's like, what, who is this benefiting in our country outside of that one transaction?
But the states thing is interesting, though.
Go, go.
Like, just to your point, like, states doing it, like, if different states were to do it, either in America or in other countries, would it be the same?
Would you feel the same way?
I'd be honest, it depends on the state.
Hawaii, I really empathize.
Hawaii, I get it.
Finite amount of land, a specific, unique culture.
These people want to be with not only the culture, like their family.
And then you just have Westerners who literally want to be there for a couple months, maybe.
If they want to go live there and like dedicate time, okay, I get that.
But if you want to be there for a couple months, you just have this lavish pad, and then you basically destroyed a whole housing project that would have housed 300 people to build your one home.
I can understand where they get pushback for that.
Yeah.
I know there are holes I'm missing in this, but I do empathize with that.
And that did annoy me.
When I was in Vancouver, like hearing them talk about it, they're like, yeah, it sucks, dude.
We can't even live in the city.
Like, we're from here, and we have to move out of our city when we get older because they're vacant apartments.
That's exactly what happens in New York.
It's exactly what happens.
Yeah.
If you don't own and you didn't own for a long time through the 70s when property value was low and now it's astronomical, you have to move out.
Yeah.
I don't know.
It just seems interesting, like interstate.
Like if it's the same rules out by, because I'm trying to think, like, what is the difference between a different country versus just like a different state if they wanted to impose the same laws and stuff?
I wonder if like that's the idea with statehood, right?
Each state has their rules.
And if one state wants to build up a whole lot of, you know, travel and they want to build up a lot of, what are they called, snowbirds or whatever like that, they want to incentivize New Yorkers to come down to Alabama or whatever.
Just increase population or whatever.
Literally that.
They just go, yo, please come.
And everybody in Alabama, if you already own a home, sell it, sell it to New Yorker, make tons of money off your shit.
You got it.
We want to get more people down here so the economy can be better.
And then when the economy is better, if they want to switch it up and they go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, who's getting a little out of hand?
Shut it down.
You have the right to do that as a state.
Bro, I'm maybe like an extremist with this statehood shit.
Like, I think if a state doesn't want abortion, they should not, they should be able to not have an abortion.
Another one does, they should just be able to have it.
And it sucks because there are like young women that don't have the ability to go get it.
And that is the tricky thing with a thing like abortion specifically.
Statehood Abortion Rights Debate00:03:31
But I'm using the most extreme example.
Obviously, there's hiccups in it, but I'm almost like you could create your idea of the world.
And if more than half of the people in that state want that idea of the world, you should have the freedom to do it within the confines of the law.
You can't strip people of their rights.
You can't just have a state where like, okay, India, being Indian is illegal.
We're going to kick them all out.
Right.
But if you want to have a state that you say like everybody can have a gun, we have that, right?
Right.
And then New York, it's tough to have a gun.
I kind of like this idea.
Yeah, it just gets so tricky.
It's got to be so case-by-case with that.
Because then, like, you don't ban like the people, you ban the culture.
This is like what France did with like hijabs, where they're like, you can't wear a hijab in public.
Did we do that already?
Kind of.
Ban the culture.
Like, how many clubs you go to?
They're like, yo, no durag, no tombs, no hat.
And it's like, you're basically saying you can't culturally dress black in this place.
Yeah, but then from the establishment to the state, it's just a much bigger thing to do.
You're right.
And then that's a problem.
And you're referencing an actual state law that would inhibit culture.
Right.
And then it's like, what parts of culture do you want to bring over?
Like, cockfighting is illegal in America.
You go to Mexico, it's just happening on every corner.
Why is that illegal?
If we're going to eat the chickens after, why is that illegal?
Yeah.
Why is it entertaining also?
There's something I'm missing.
No, it's entertaining.
You've been?
Yeah.
You've never been more Puerto Rican than right now.
I'm just saying.
I've been into them.
And why is it?
Like, they go at it.
These motherfuckers are vicious.
Yeah, More vicious than you would think a fucking rooster.
Chicken is, yeah.
Yeah, I guess that's what I don't understand.
As long as they're like using the chicken for food afterwards, why is it bad?
You're not wasting the chicken.
We're going to kill it anyway and eat it.
Like, what does it matter if it kills its buddy and then we eat it?
I think it's like cruelty and torture and shit.
What is more cruel than twisting a chicken's head off and letting it run for a little?
Letting it like bleed out.
Oh, do they bleed it out?
Yeah.
It's like they are fighting and they're like eyes falling out and like their heads chopped off.
I assume if you kill a chicken to eat it, you try to kill it in the least painful way.
Which I don't know if they do.
If you're cockfighting or not.
You're cool farming is probably not the most ethical thing.
You don't have that energy inside you.
But that would be the argument, though.
Yeah, I guess somebody would say like, well, if we're going to euthanize the dogs, why don't we just let them fight first?
We would disagree with that.
Right.
Which kind of goes back to the business that we were talking about, that if you're going to commit euthanasia and you want to pass away, you could let somebody kill you that loves killing.
Yes.
Yes.
Or donate.
Speak into your house, do the whole thing like a kill fantasy.
Or donate your body to killing yourself in a way to spite someone else in order to teach them a lesson.
Like, if you're really mad at like...
Jump in front of a subway.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, you're really mad at your kids because they were like being annoying and like they're distracting you because the light's on at the back of the car.
And then you hit a guy and kill him.
And then you teach your kids a lesson.
Always keep the lights off.
You hit a guy and kill them.
Yeah.
But the guy wanted to kill him.
Oh, my God.
So he gets to donate his life in order for the kid to learn lessons.
Oh, that's great.
And then you might traumatize the kids, but they can deal with that.
And they don't have the light on anymore.
And the light's never on again.
Whoa.
