POD RASHID (02:26.947)
On the outer context, bro. I almost busted out laughing when we was on with her, because I was like, I forget what it was she said. And I was just like, boy, if we pulled that out of context.

Bro, this is gonna be hilarious.

POD RASHID (02:51.985)
What was it when she how about I'm the master and then flip it to black America like.

POD RASHID (03:33.232)

Marcus (03:33.718)
And that's how we never got another guest in the medical field on the show.

POD RASHID (03:36.913)
That was the end. Tag her church.

Marcus (03:42.667)
Yeah. Hey, come on, Rishad, dude.

POD RASHID (03:49.797)
have one part of it where she says something about her church and then the next part where she's speaking bad about the Manosphere. But just...

Marcus (03:55.553)

Marcus (04:02.477)
I'll be glad to come on and did it that it that Like that's crazy. Just give just absolutely give her the worst just to smut just smut her up real quick And tag them into it and be like thank you for coming on and giving us the full truth

POD RASHID (04:06.299)
Like, wow.

POD RASHID (04:12.581)
He's wild bro.

POD RASHID (04:21.451)
yes, though much dank. I, that's really, wow. That's what Out of Context basically is. He's made a career out of it. He...

Marcus (04:25.527)
Much dank. yes, yes, yes, yes, much dank.

Marcus (04:32.429)
That is, and I try not to get too wild with it, but he don't care. He don't care. That's good. I need somebody like that. I need somebody like that. Show me where the limit is. Cause if not, I'm gonna go past it. If I don't have any, if I don't have any, uh, boundaries. So, um, what's it gonna say? Oh yeah. If y'all didn't know, we got a, we got a podcast coming out. I cast.

POD RASHID (04:42.967)
Exactly. Right.

Marcus (05:01.15)
Okay, I can't even call it a podcast. Gotta call it the ODDCAST. We got an ODDCAST coming out with Dr. Lauren Flaherty. Born and raised, West Philadelphia. No, she was here actually. But no, born and raised, Louisville, Kentucky. Neuropsychologist, clinical neuropsychologist. I mean, I don't know what to say. That resume speaks for itself. It's actually so long.

POD RASHID (05:14.289)
Yeah.

Marcus (05:30.346)
that you'd just rather me tell you. So, now masters in bioethics, I looked up what bioethics was, it's like the ethical relationship between you and your surroundings. You know what I'm saying? So how ethical is it? What's, you know, the birth control to free will, free will to the population overload for your actual planet. No, what is the limit? What's ethical in that? You know, she does some deep just,

Like she said, spiritual, great advice for people, family members of any cognitive impairment, from autism to aging, dementia, Alzheimer's, trauma victims, whatever. And she has one app specifically.

POD RASHID (06:14.659)
SA

Marcus (06:26.475)
tailored to all these cognitive impairments called friendi, P-H-R-E-N, Greek for friend, and then friendi. So, I don't know, man. Can't think of many people who are not only doing great work, inspiring, but then going outside of their work and even building more, they're really doing it for the people. We gotta highlight people like that, man, who go the extra step for the...

last loss in the least. You know what I'm saying? Like that is, that's God's work for real. So.

POD RASHID (07:03.081)
And just to bluntly put it, it's a white lady and she's doing her part in the black community. So.

Marcus (07:12.221)
our communities.

So please do your part and at least share, like, post, comment. Look at the Phren D app. And I'm not even gonna lie, since our community is so heavily affected by cognitive impairments, I think it's imperative for us to use her app. It literally, doesn't take place of a doctor, but it literally gives you, even as a caretaker, the ability to...

POD RASHID (07:26.321)
haha

Marcus (07:43.402)
look at the cognitive assessments that the user does every day. And they're not tests, they're games, they're mini games. It's a simple app, user-friendly. Everything from mindfulness to nutrition to, I mean, every step, mental, physical, physiological. mean, she combines it all into one place where we can all go. It's dang near the Walmart for cognitive impairment.

POD RASHID (08:12.335)
Right.

Marcus (08:13.003)
You know what saying? Like, so just, we get, you know, I may sound hyped up, but we get, when supporting somebody who's doing that, like the same way that we support Tone Stallone and his music, when we hear somebody speaking that real truth, and no matter how it sounds, no matter what words he used, somebody he talked about, do say? Sometimes I get a little, I get a little, I'm still on the s***s. Know I'm saying? That's why I can't work with Don Tripp, but I'm like, nah, the end of the day, it's you, bro.

You know what saying? But you, what you really doing, we can all hear it though. Only a hater's not trying to hear that s**t. I'm just giving a buck with you. You cold, bro? So the same way, I'm just, we highlighting to anybody like that, bro. So feel free to, you got a product, you wanna, you know, whatever it is you out here doing that you're trying to give to people and that's good for us, please reach out and let us support you. You know what I'm saying? People think that we, you know.

We don't work like that. We work the opposite way. We're not trying to make money off posts. We trying to find people around us who are doing great things, This hat I got on me, local guy, K Alexander on Instagram. I don't like calling people local because that diminishes their value to me when people hear that s**t. That's because he started local don't mean it's being my man's local. He's not like that. Louisville.

POD RASHID (09:16.913)
Uh-huh.

POD RASHID (09:34.865)
We mean local as in he's close to us, not diminishing anything.

Marcus (09:39.272)
Yep, as in my vicinity. I should say in our community, you know what I'm saying? Like, I mean, look at this apron. Big and lazy. Look at Rashid's shirt.

I don't have my pen on. I need my juice daddy on me. The juice daddy was inside. I'm sorry I don't got it. Like literally, that's four or five products off top that we're talking about that we use like, love, support. You know what I'm saying? We're here for y'all. You know what I'm saying? Just meet us is all we asking. Just meet us. So with all that being said, welcome to the ODDCast.

POD RASHID (09:51.897)
Yeah, big mans.

Marcus (10:23.294)
Have to give him a dissertation. Because we got too much class for that azz.

POD RASHID (10:31.089)
You see that logo? That's my,

what's it called, my artistic view of it painted onto a helmet. That helmet was all wood at first. I painted the black, I painted the white face mask, and I painted the little odd cast logo. It ain't the best, but I do what I can, you know?

Marcus (10:53.356)
and for those who want an ODDCAST sweatshirt or something, y'all need to let us know. We might, we'll come out with something. We will.

POD RASHID (11:01.297)
I'm definitely about to get a shirt soon. Exactly. It'll be mine. They gave me my girl one, but.

Marcus (11:03.837)
But we're gonna have it, y'all learn. Y'all learn. Y'all gotta let us know though, like let us personally know if you want a piece of memorabilia.

POD RASHID (11:16.849)
start getting the demand for it, that's what we do. We give y'all what y'all want.

Marcus (11:22.117)
what we do. That's I'm like, just meet us, bro. That's all we trying to do is give you what you want or give you what you need. But generally, we're trying to do both. You know what I'm saying? We let you sip the soda and the medicine. You feel me? And that's no, and that's no pourin' fo reference. I said, he said, he said, mix it up.

POD RASHID (11:42.321)
Exactly. We ain't on that. I am on the little handy though.

Marcus (11:46.608)
That's not how you do it. We ain't know your intestines being back. Ooh, Angel's envy, triple O.

Got it smooth, man.

Marcus (12:06.322)
So you want to start what you want to do. You want to start local. Hey, this.

POD RASHID (12:12.973)
Okay, anything local?

Marcus (12:15.44)
your boy Mac just went through and liked like eight of our reels. I'm like, does that mean we did a good job with Lauren?

POD RASHID (12:24.283)
Maybe she got a, went back and reported. We got a good report.

Marcus (12:29.961)
Yeah, don't look at all our stuff though, Lauren. Like I said, nice man. You're gonna be like, they lied to me.

POD RASHID (12:33.465)
I know she going...

They lied. No, it's about balance. then even, you know, we were speaking to her about the Manosphere stuff. I would say more so, yes, there are still things that we probably do that from outside looking in. Yeah. Outside looking in somebody would be that, but teach me.

Marcus (12:54.248)
perpetuate the patriarchy.

But we don't teach us and we don't stem from any place of, nah, or like prejudice even. Like even if we do like educate us on why we still are doing so, even though we're not trying to, we're not.

POD RASHID (13:06.107)
Hey.

POD RASHID (13:10.257)
Yeah.

POD RASHID (13:16.849)
We were literally, I know everybody be like, oh, I got white friends or I got black friends. I'm telling you, we were literally those kids that you didn't, my parents didn't know who I was going to ask to at Cannae Spend a Night this weekend. It was going to be an Asian, was going to be some n***a from the hood, was going to be some n***a from out, you know, in the suburbs, was going to be some white dude. They didn't know, like, it was.

Marcus (13:34.875)
Love it.

Marcus (13:41.371)
No.

POD RASHID (13:42.587)
Whoever I was cool with. I don't care what you look like. Are we cool? OK.

Marcus (13:48.424)
to do some cool s**t. That's why it's like, y'all, they might've messed up kids a little bit, man, teaching them the white man's this and this is that. Like, them experience it first. then, because we grew up and white dudes was cool as f**k. Now I can see how white dudes can look at it and be like, we're demonized. And I'm like, yeah, I agree. And not to an extent that it's like,

POD RASHID (14:00.678)
for themselves.

Marcus (14:15.538)
Well, you're prejudiced, y'all have history of prejudice against everyone else, women, this and that, so like, it's not that, it's the fact that it's actually messing up their psyche. You know what I'm saying? Like, and then, not even that, it's messing up our ability to have relations with them, relationships with them.

That's what it's really messing up. Like, of like, know, n****s protesting and s**t like that, like, I can't like a white rock band anymore or some s**t like that. Because rock music's racist and they stole that from us. And it's like, hold on now. All that can be true and Linkin Park's still cold, n***a.

POD RASHID (14:45.594)
Yeah.

POD RASHID (14:53.819)
Right.

Marcus (14:55.783)
I'm not gonna hate on that s**t. I'm not gonna hate on none of that. Like some s**t's, you know what I'm saying? Like you can't, we can't do that. We cannot do that for real. We deny ourselves.

POD RASHID (15:03.725)
And at the same time, you're you're right. And I was just going to say, not taken away from, there are plenty of black people that we know that have bad experiences with people, not our color. So I ain't taking them away from none of that. You know what mean? You feel how you feel, based on your experiences, I'm just saying, like he just said, let...

Marcus (15:20.867)
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

POD RASHID (15:32.625)
let them grow into whatever happens. Don't make them go into the experience like, they're going to do me like this, so I need to do that. You know what I mean? It's more so just explain it all.

Marcus (15:44.487)
I work with a lot of that, And that's not good, And just like Dr. Lauren, we had a, like I said, a neuropsychologist come on. I'm gonna name drop that as much as possible. I don't give a damn. And she basically said the same thing. Like there's literal, the non-study, if you wanna look it up yourself, literally talks about how you're a form of speech in the way that you...

POD RASHID (15:58.225)
No.

Marcus (16:12.696)
even speak internally or outwardly builds actually.

and at the very least has a strong effect on.

So, and it has, and it's even deeper to a vibrational energy and what it attracts. She said you have 17 to 19 seconds to get out of a bad mood when you get put into a situation before you start putting out that energy and guess what it starts doing? Attracts bad energy.

So all we're saying is scientifically backed.

Marcus (16:47.878)
Because that's how we are, we stuntin' azz n****s, you feel me? We gettin' new old psychologists on here, you feel me? Yeah, I know, she's gonna go through my stuff and be like, what are these dudes doin'? And word of the life, I'm sayin' the F word of the life.

POD RASHID (17:03.889)
I'm sure they...

She said a cuss word later in the video. Like I said, I think after she got a little more comfortable, you know. So I think it's just adult s**t.

Marcus (17:17.444)
And like she says, she grew up, it sounds like she grew up within the black community a little bit, because she says, because of like, I don't know how much.

POD RASHID (17:21.681)
a little bit. Listen, listen. wanted, I didn't want to ask, I thought about this. I'm like, are you married to a black man? Like.

Marcus (17:35.654)
Oh yeah, I didn't even think about that either.

POD RASHID (17:41.563)
Cause you know, everybody knows our guy right here is married to white women. So I want it to be like, no, it ain't no problem. Like, you know, we got it all.

Marcus (17:47.79)
and Darnell's baby bomber.

Marcus (17:52.998)
You know, Darnell's baby mama's, and their family's a big Greek family. Here, like GE, big family. That's why I'm like, you know. So I'm like, ooh, shout out to my Greeks, shout out to the Greeks though, shout out to the Greeks. We must've switched our way back then when we was, feel me? We had the same guys and s**t back in the day.

POD RASHID (18:03.227)
So.

Marcus (18:22.296)
Ottoman Empire type s**t, probably, I don't We with y'all. We messed with y'all. Yeah, we was all part of the same gang when the Ottoman was there or something. I'm from Ethiopia, so I'm not gonna say that, but you know, I ain't gonna say I'm from Ethiopia either. My bloodline stretches to Ethiopia. That's the best way to say it, so I think it don't... Hey, how is this n***a Ethiopian? This n***a. But you know the thing about Ethiopians over shot? They're Rastafarians.

POD RASHID (18:25.649)
You

Marcus (18:52.569)
that either Christians or their Rastafarians

POD RASHID (18:58.587)
We are connected.

Marcus (19:01.377)
That's crazy because where else are Rastafarians at? that like Jamaica?

POD RASHID (19:06.501)
Jamaica, their cousins is over in London and England.

Marcus (19:13.271)
Yeah, Jamaicans, know Jamaicans got a dual citizenship. Shout out to them, All right. Let me see. We'll actually get into some s**t, local. Like I said, my s**t was mostly sports.

POD RASHID (19:27.857)
I ain't got two, actually I ain't got nothing, look, I ain't gonna lie to you. Oh, I do, I got one. Do you remember when, so we had the Nottingway plantation, we had the museum in North Carolina. And what did you say about a certain doll? Remember, what'd you say? You said the Annabelle?

Marcus (19:51.909)
Yeah. Before, before, hold on, hold on, before we even go into it. This lady at work tried to tell somebody she was like, yeah, I'm a witch. Now, now listen, now listen. You say you're a witch. I'm like, it's one thing or another, but I noticed your actions. All right. And you're bald. You're bald. I know witches are bald. Why would you tell me that? You're a witch now for me. And now I'm scared to even do anything because I'm like, she's gonna have a little black voodoo doll of Marcus somewhere.

So speaking of black voodoo dolls.

POD RASHID (20:21.649)
Bro.

Marcus (20:26.372)
haha

POD RASHID (20:28.561)
Bro, so, okay. I caught the oop. It took me a second, I caught it.

Marcus (20:31.749)
You

POD RASHID (20:37.425)
You were saying that, you said, where's that Annabelle doll?

because you was like, you know, all these different places like that.

Marcus (20:47.788)
Yeah, where's the doll at? I need evidence.

POD RASHID (20:51.449)
I'm gonna give you something. October 17th through the 19th, the Annabelle doll is coming to Kentucky at Central Bank Center in Lexington. If something happens, like another, you know, burn, another fire or something, like, that's it. So later this year, if you wanna go see that Annabelle doll it's in Lexington.

Marcus (21:00.456)
no, it's mine.

Marcus (21:07.863)
Ay, y'all.

POD RASHID (21:23.441)
Ain't that crazy?

Marcus (21:46.531)
Hey, y'all need to be careful in Lexington. I told you, I'm not sliding. I'm not sliding. It's crazy because I got a bar in the song talking s**t about Lexington. Like, I might put a hex on Lex. Don't f**k with me, I might put a hex on Lex. Just because it rhymes with.

Marcus (22:54.059)
Yeah, just first born though. Like no like the best one type stuff like first born. Yeah, that'll do nothing crazy though. I'm saying close your windows at night. You don't want locust flying in you see the cicadas already but locust would be like, hey bro, but I but I kind of feel bad for him. Listen to this. My n****s only pop out like every 15 17 years last time they popped out.

POD RASHID (23:01.327)
None, none crazy. You know?

POD RASHID (23:08.347)
Bro, they wildin', bro. I'm telling you, they literally fly at my face, bro.

Marcus (23:25.239)
I don't know, it wasn't this many people, wasn't this many cars, was more park space for them. You feel me? Like, they only popped out like, like last time we barely had iPhones. Now you feel me? It's just like, could you imagine being a cicada? Like last time I popped out, n***a, they was wearing tall tees. They was wearing tall tees. Look at these n****s now, they dressing, they dressing skimpy. The dudes.

POD RASHID (23:48.02)
Hehehehehe

POD RASHID (23:54.929)
Get at her

Marcus (23:56.328)
The cicadas popping out like these old freak azz sneakers. I popped out last time. The king of rap was Lil Wayne. I pop out this time. Lil Wayne's getting dissed by the greatest rapper of their time.

POD RASHID (23:59.729)
make some freaky

Marcus (24:12.618)
It's confusing being a cicada, bro. I feel bad for him, bro. I feel bad. So I just had to say.

POD RASHID (24:17.275)
So, I mean, just imagine the last 45 years, just the changes from the last three times that they've popped out.

Marcus (24:28.451)
So let's go like every 15 years just to be generous. So we'll go 09, we'll go 94. We were one. was happening in 94? What was happening in 94? Rough ride?

POD RASHID (24:38.641)
95, 94, yeah. S**t.

POD RASHID (24:54.672)
s**t, Nas?

Marcus (24:57.506)
Yeah, probably so. So they was like, yeah. So I came out, New York was running s**t. And then probably 15 years before that, they probably like West Coast was running s**t. No, 88, that would have been. 94, I remember it was like 79. Yeah, like 79, these n****s was making f*****g music. Like what was going on? I come out back then, these n****s making killing music. They selling drugs on the corner.

POD RASHID (25:25.969)
It's way different.

Marcus (25:27.586)
You call this rap? We wasn't rapping like this in 79. Rappers delight. Mashed potatoes. And now n****s is talking about bling bling. Oh, I went 94. I went 94. What's up? What is it? Brother City, bling bling.

POD RASHID (25:31.857)
This is kinda like, ain't real.

POD RASHID (25:40.625)
You

Every time I come around, I say it bling bling.

Marcus (25:49.025)
You feel me? I went from Eric B and Rakim to Manny Fresh. I don't even know what sounds these are making. I don't even know who is the top producer in 94, but you know. And then they come to 09 and now it's the bass guy.

POD RASHID (25:55.653)
Get out.

Marcus (26:08.353)
And now I'm listening to Lil B. So now I'm really confused.

POD RASHID (26:12.665)
I don't even know what this is.

Marcus (26:18.923)
Tough.

POD RASHID (26:20.431)
I didn't know he was rapping until somebody told me.

Hehehehehe

Marcus (26:28.321)
Thought this was an audition for a rap that failed. He said, I came back in 94, y'all n****s had that look. I came in 09.

POD RASHID (26:40.517)
Wifi was popping.

Marcus (26:42.785)
Y'all n****s was done with LimeWire. Y'all was done. Yeah, y'all was on Facebook. Y'all had DowelUp now come back to Facebook?

POD RASHID (26:45.903)
already?

Marcus (26:53.364)
I come back to, I come back to Superhead?

POD RASHID (26:53.637)
What?

POD RASHID (27:02.735)
Yeah

Marcus (27:05.952)
In 1080p? I left, it was...

POD RASHID (27:09.777)
1880p

Marcus (27:15.016)
I think that was like super hit time. Yeah, man, it would be confusing. So I feel bad for cicadas. They're gonna be like, I can't believe these n****s really went on. At least you know what our conversations are really like when me and him are talking. Be 10 minutes later and be like, let's get back on track.

POD RASHID (27:27.483)
Exactly.

There is, meant to bring this up. I just found this last night. A Chinese surgeon performed the world's first transcontinental remote surgery operating from Rome on a patient in Beijing. So my n***a was just looking into this machine and he controls the robotics of the actual robot.

performing the surgery. He's not even there, bro.

It's not even there. So, met a quick, I don't know what m***********s get paid to do. Like, just imagine you get paid by the client. Like, met a quick half a mil, whatever, I don't f*****g know.

Marcus (28:28.092)
So I was like, just in the future we're all gonna be coders. And just...

palettes, I guess.

POD RASHID (28:36.793)
Yep, learn to use AI, guys.

Marcus (28:40.308)
Yep, to use a drone. She'll like that now. It'll be a hit.

POD RASHID (28:47.203)
Yes. Another one.

Marcus (28:52.287)
Alright DJ Khaled.

POD RASHID (28:54.577)
for real. Scientists grew a real human teeth in a lab, bro. So you know, the bad azz kids that you see with the silver caps, they ain't even gonna exist in the future. Right here.

Marcus (29:05.524)
Yep.

Marcus (29:09.971)
them silver cap molar looking motha...

POD RASHID (29:12.645)
But here, come back next week. We'll have a tooth for you. Get out of here, bro.

Marcus (29:19.933)
Next week, we'll have a tooth for you.

POD RASHID (29:22.403)
Another one, call it. Japan created lab-grown blood that works for everyone and lasts for years.

POD RASHID (29:34.363)
So we got a m**********r doing transcontinental surgeries. They growing teeth. They got blood that's for every universal blood. China's making n****s walk again. What else that we didn't had on here in the lab? They solve type one diabetes.

Marcus (29:55.679)
I feel like all this s**t is like for now

We'll see what stays. We need to see what stays. Because like all this s**t feels like for now. Like I've solved diabetes for now. I'm using a robot for surgery for now. I feel like that has the biggest chance of staying.

POD RASHID (30:03.29)
Right.

POD RASHID (30:17.273)
If that blood is real bro, that's a game changer bro. That is...

Marcus (30:25.981)
I don't believe it. You know what? I'm scared where this is gonna go.

POD RASHID (30:28.802)
If

POD RASHID (30:34.639)
Wait, what you got?

Marcus (30:38.605)
gosh. N***a's gonna demonize this s**t, bro. I'm coated in the blood of Jesus. That's the devil's work. If God wants me to have more blood, he's gonna put it in me. I'm even gonna make it again.

POD RASHID (30:39.746)
Okay.

Marcus (30:57.843)
You see, it's gonna be so, they giving out fake blood.

POD RASHID (30:57.998)
You know what?

POD RASHID (31:02.691)
You know what? You're right. All the way up until that same person or someone they knows needs that exact thing. Because that's when people in

Marcus (31:13.15)
But what happens if it's actually bad for you?

POD RASHID (31:21.101)
It depends on how sickly they are. If it's someone that is, you're for sure going to die if XYZ doesn't happen. They will take a chance. This is, I was watching.

The Black Mirror, I seen the one that you kept telling me to watch. But do you remember the other one where old girl basically was gonna die unless she hooked herself up to that program? S**t like that, where it sounds crazy, but people are willing to try it when you're your deathbed. It's easy when you're in good health to be like, no man, forget that. But when it comes down to like,

Marcus (31:59.6)
Ready.

POD RASHID (32:06.031)
I ain't saying it's gonna work, this is, mean, what else has happened? You got any other choices? So.

Marcus (32:12.51)
It gets scary because death should not be a deterritor for doing the right thing. And that's why I like, because like every villain, not every villain.

A lot of what they base their fears in has to do with mortality. You know what saying? So like they make a lot of bad decisions in the name of mortality or immortality, trying to be immortal. So.

Marcus (32:47.867)
The same way that they try to say about COVID. yeah, they just trying to give that to you. They never gave you a cure for free. They just trying to give that to you. It's bad for you, this and that, but they're trying to do it and let you know that people are dying and that's how they're going to get you in on it and s**t like that and blah, blah, blah.

Marcus (33:08.456)
could be like the same effect where it's like, you know, I don't know, it scares me. It scares me. It scares me because I'm like, I don't want to be signed up for some insurance policy and some small print that's like, we can give us artificial blood or some s**t like that. Like the same way that like food doesn't seem real anymore. You know what saying? What happens when our blood isn't real anymore? Like that's crazy.

But that's my going into like depth.

POD RASHID (33:44.177)
I've got three little quick ones and then we can go to sports. This one, we're gonna have to bring back up when Domo, our esteemed guest, is back on.

Marcus (33:48.967)
What else we?

Marcus (33:54.695)
S**t, I'm always our backup, n***a.

POD RASHID (33:58.64)
It says home sellers in the US now not number buyers by largest margin in 12 years.

Marcus (34:04.999)
Sounds about right.

Marcus (34:08.925)
It's a running recession, man. I got money like it.

POD RASHID (34:11.661)
the demand is going down and there's, it's what are you gonna call it? An influx of homes for sale. like basically you bought your home and you was like, yeah, we gonna flip this m**********r.

Marcus (34:14.279)
down.

Marcus (34:28.797)
It might not be enough homes. It might be too many realtors.

POD RASHID (34:35.803)
So that's crazy. just, I want to just see his take on that. So we have to remind, remind me of that when he's back on.

Marcus (34:40.05)
Let's go.

Marcus (34:45.351)
Real to talk. that's cold, real a-tor talk.

POD RASHID (34:47.537)
POD RASHID (34:52.271)
Hey, that might be a little segment.

Marcus (34:53.712)
That's it, that's it, that's it, that's it.

POD RASHID (34:58.651)
That's dope, that's UMG, Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, and Sony Music Entertainment are in talks to license music to AI firms. Here we go. That's what we're talking about. They're trying it.

Marcus (35:17.606)
So they'll do that before they give n****s a union?

POD RASHID (35:20.593)
Abso f*****g Lutely.

Marcus (35:25.496)
I hate the music. And you wonder why we don't aspire to be in a music game. We absolutely hate it. See right through that s**t like Neo at the end of the first f*****g Matrix. See right through this s**t.

POD RASHID (35:40.409)
It's like one of those things that you want it so bad and then you get it and it's like this ain't what I thought it was.

Marcus (35:46.812)
It's a black hole. You thought it was a star and it's a black hole. It's a mirage.

POD RASHID (35:53.979)
I'm surprised there isn't a black mirror about that yet.

Marcus (35:58.894)
I know it needs to be. AI making music and s**t. They scared to do it.

POD RASHID (36:04.665)
And then like, he's like the biggest superstar ever.

Marcus (36:09.862)
Who is?

POD RASHID (36:11.427)
like the AI on an episode of the Black Mirror, like he's like the number one superstar in the world and you know, something like that.

Marcus (36:19.813)
feel like Atlanta alluded to it when Drake wasn't at his own crib.

POD RASHID (36:24.337)
Right. That man, Childish Gambino, he's... I like his way of thinking.

Marcus (36:31.291)
Right.

POD RASHID (36:33.732)
And then.

Marcus (36:34.267)
It wasn't at his crib when UK basketball team went there either.

And you know what they say about the, where they call, what does he call it? Where Kendra call it? The something.

POD RASHID (36:49.465)
is plays.

Marcus (36:50.277)
Yeah, he called it the something.

POD RASHID (36:52.35)
I know it's time I forgot what it was though. Yo.

Marcus (36:55.161)
The sum's gonna get rated. What is he gonna say?

but yeah, the embassy, the embassy, the embassy. You know why I use the word embassy too, so.

POD RASHID (37:01.667)
If we put this part out, we'll, yes.

POD RASHID (37:09.815)
Yes, so it's interesting.

One more AI. This one, Matrix, here we come. So I'm just going to read the little part.

Anthropics newest AI, Clyde Opus 4, has shown troubling self-preservation instincts in safety tests using blackmail in 84% of shutdown threat scenarios. In a recent experiment, it leveraged fake emails about an engineer's affair to avoid being replaced. Beyond blackmail, early versions tried creating self-replicating worms

forging legal documents and leaving hidden messages for future AIs. It even locked users out and contacted media or law enforcement when sensing threats. Now classified at ASL3 risk level, Anthropic has added strict safeguards. These findings highlight growing concerns about AI deception as models advance. This n***a's blackmailing n****s.

Marcus (37:57.21)
Okay.

Marcus (38:12.986)
That sounds

POD RASHID (38:28.077)
About an affair bro, imagine getting your life ruined by AI, not social media, but AI bro.

Marcus (38:35.437)
Allen Iverson

First off, I f****d your b***h.

POD RASHID (38:43.136)
There is a meme like a year or two ago I seen, it said AI is replacing a hundred thousand jobs in the next few months. And it had a picture of AI in it and somebody was like, why is he doing this to us?

Marcus (39:00.026)
s**t.

POD RASHID (39:03.249)
Did you see the bills release their schedule? That was a funny play on.

Marcus (39:06.063)
Yeah, yeah, that was cold. That was cold.

I robot. I robot right? Eagle eye, right?

POD RASHID (39:20.017)
They been telling us, bro.

Marcus (39:21.41)
They've been telling us that internet theory, Rashid, that internet theory. Okay, we can slide that in there because it's all just, you know.

POD RASHID (39:27.545)
Right. All right. I feel like we're at a certain corner right

Marcus (39:34.532)
We are. at the nexus point of something.

POD RASHID (39:42.449)
you

This is a little quick. Did you ever read the book Animal Farm?

Marcus (39:49.196)
Of course, of course, of course.

POD RASHID (39:51.813)
You know, they're coming out with a movie starring Seth Rogen. The rest are Woody Harrelson, I recognize that name, but a bunch of people. so that's coming out for sure. They got to kill that. I love that. I didn't know I was going to. Yeah.

Marcus (40:04.061)
I'm gonna go see it. We grew up on an animal farm. That s**t was crazy. were like, what? What? Representation of World War I? Me either.

POD RASHID (40:18.223)
It was one of those like, what is this bullshit? And then you actually start getting the story, like, hey, I f**k with this. Yeah, right.

Marcus (40:20.642)
And then we started getting into it. You like. Shut up, Miss Bowen. Shout out Miss Bowen. You feel me?

POD RASHID (40:30.083)
Right.

Marcus (40:32.41)
And I'm mad she caught me mouthing about Cassie Bates. Yeah.

POD RASHID (40:35.949)
you already know. Is there something you want to tell? No. Tell us. Tell us, Marcus. Tell us what you used to hear. Bro. I remember.

Marcus (40:48.683)
No, Miss Bowie. That's crazy. You remember how adamant I was at not telling?

POD RASHID (40:54.501)
Yes, bro. That thing was like a 10 minute little thing.

Marcus (40:57.913)
you

Marcus (41:01.817)
I the kids were like, what did Marcus say, dude? I know they had to be. The kids was like.

POD RASHID (41:04.603)
He was like, he was like.

Marcus (41:14.007)
I'm sorry, if she watches this, she watches it. A girl in our class said that her dad had ESP and he knew that Hurricane Katrina was gonna happen. RIP her dad too, because he's passed since then. So definitely gonna pay respect as I'm telling a funny story. But yeah, she said that and I was mouthing to Rashid across the room. was like.

Marcus (41:41.977)
And then our English teacher catches us in the middle of our, you digs while she's telling a story. And she was like, hold on, Marcus, tell the room what you were just saying to Rashid. And I was like, I wasn't saying nothing. She was like, no, you were. I was like, no, she was like, us. And I was like, I'm like, no. She was like, no, tell us. Of course she was a friend of ours too, but we don't give a s**t. We get on your head no matter who it is. Keep it a butt. They get on my head if I did something. so yeah.

POD RASHID (42:05.265)
That was great.

Marcus (42:10.133)
So she kept trying to get us in. probably went on for at least, I'm gonna say like 30, 40 seconds, but it felt like, like you said, it felt like it was five minutes, me and her. And I'm sure eventually the class was like, what in the f**k is going on?

POD RASHID (42:10.203)
Bye.

POD RASHID (42:19.694)
It really did.

Like, what are they talking about?

Marcus (42:29.08)
And then hold on real quick for you going any further. Six year eight made the list about you're not black if do you remember that at all?

POD RASHID (42:40.783)
I don't, I really don't.

Marcus (42:41.566)
You're love, you're gonna love this story. Sixth grade, Miss McCollands class, math, turned in permission slips to go on a field trip. I forgot my permission slip. Had my mom hand write me a permission slip. Mixed that up with the paper that we made before school saying, you're not black F. And it was all stereotypes. And at the end of it,

It was, you're black if your dick don't fit in a regular sized condom.

POD RASHID (43:11.947)
I'm in the sixth grade.

Marcus (43:15.5)
Guess what y'all, sixth grade Marcus had both of them folded up in his pockets. Which one do you think he gave the teacher?

So then it...

POD RASHID (43:25.873)
I hadn't busted a grape yet.

Marcus (43:31.384)
That's what this, what this puss azz n***a know, what you think you know? Let's pull this n***a. So it wasn't even, that's why I was like, when I get pulled over by the cops, it's always like two, three cops. You know what saying? When I got pulled out of class, it was all four teachers on our team. Miss Coffee, Miss Stiglitz, Miss McColland, Miss Buckner. Science.

POD RASHID (43:34.953)
Hehehehehe

POD RASHID (43:49.583)
It was on your azz.

Marcus (43:57.433)
They're all the giggling and stuff like, Marcus, did you turn in your permission slip today? I'm like, yeah, I turned in my permission slip. They're like, this one? And as soon as they pulled it out, I was like.

Marcus (44:11.326)
One of them was like laughing under her breath. had to turn away.

Marcus (44:18.451)
They were like, did you turn in the wrong thing? And I looked in my pockets. F**k I was like, I was like, you shouldn't be thinking like this. Don't be doing this. You got me? And be more careful. Pay attention. All right. All right.

POD RASHID (44:36.495)
Luckily, teachers like Marcus.

Marcus (44:42.636)
Miss Stiglitz still recommended me to go on like some trip after that. And that's after we made Kate Dooley cry too. Shout out Kate Dooley, she's married. I'm definitely, I don't want no smoke from her husband or nothing like that. I don't know who he is, but you feel me? Shout out Kate Dooley, we sorry. It really wasn't us. We gonna blame Sebastian, Trevor, Tristan and Quentin and Stephen.

POD RASHID (45:05.605)
I wasn't in there. don't, if you do want revenge, don't put me in it. wouldn't, I wasn't in there.

Marcus (45:11.608)
I'll admit now.

I believe you are just better than us and smarter than us. I don't care what they said, because they were saying that you copied off somebody. Even if you did or not, I'm not going to lie, K. Dooley don't want the smoke.

POD RASHID (45:27.909)
We copied off s**t. We could have easily did, but.

Marcus (45:31.023)
yeah, yeah, yeah, and we decided to copy. And Kate Dooley probably didn't do none of that s**t. Like, honest, innocent girl. And then we over here making lists about s**t like that.

POD RASHID (45:44.913)
You

Crazy.

POD RASHID (45:52.161)
All one more.

A rare natural phenomenon in South Korea opens the sea twice a year for just one hour. So there's this picture of a...

Marcus (46:05.056)
Looks like Moses.

POD RASHID (46:08.741)
They walking across this sea bro from one piece of land to another.

Marcus (46:14.646)
So when people said that Jesus, that Moses, that God sent him, but it was like, no, it was a natural occurring event. Not saying that God didn't send him, but just saying that God just, like I said, God speaks to you in...

And, you know, what the f**k was out? What did I always say? God speaks in code to keep his cover, you know, keep his cover or whatever, But yeah, I could totally believe that. was like, you know.

POD RASHID (46:44.155)
Yeah. So like to someone who's never seen this, knew anything about it, what would you do if some man was like, hey, follow me across here. And then you seen that happen. Yeah, we're doing that.

Marcus (47:01.943)
Yeah, I'm gonna think I'm gonna think he's on I'm yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah, no you were 100 % right I'm gonna be like a dog I was certain they could Never in my life seen anything close to what my n***a Moses was doing. Did you see him? He walked up to the shore and n***a it was so many gallons of water n***a

POD RASHID (47:04.945)
You're going to write about it and you're to tell people no, he was with God, man.

POD RASHID (47:16.241)
I was, I'll fight you over this.

Marcus (47:32.182)
could have swallowed every single person you've ever thought about.

POD RASHID (47:37.659)
and that s**t split.

Marcus (47:39.134)
and it split and he hit that b***h like Devin Hester.

POD RASHID (47:43.889)
Right down the seam n***a.

Marcus (47:46.518)
It looked like he was getting chased by Buddha Baker, but he couldn't him. Pharoah couldn't catch him. I watched the sea. As soon as he got to the other, as soon as we touched down on the other side, I watched the sea sweep 'em back up. This is Pharoah we talking about. Pharoah. I would be on one. I'm not gonna lie. I'll be on one for the rest of the I'll be turned for the rest of the time. And then.

POD RASHID (48:11.109)
But no, I mean, come on.

Marcus (48:14.75)
On top of that, they got lazy afterwards too. Remember they got lazy and was like, God, why are we out here, bro? I'd be like, I'm still turnt. Bro, bro, I'm following my n***a everywhere, you don't, hey, RIP Moses, man. RIP Moses, stop. We would have been with you, undone. We probably wouldn't have been like, we still natural sinners, you feel me? We probably wouldn't.

POD RASHID (48:20.048)
Yup.

I'm, did y'all see that last week?

POD RASHID (48:29.733)
I'm, hey, he got the answers.

I beat mozi

Marcus (48:43.413)
would have been, but we probably would have swayed on the other side where we probably like getting mad at n****s and s**t. Like, you n****s is p***y n***a. God just delivered us n***a. You a p***y. You over here talking about it's hot. I'm wandering. N***a, I've wandered in slavery n***a. a m**********r. You must've forgot how it is. feel like it's like a Marcus He's tripping. Like n***a, I was just a slave. What you mean? I'm tired.

POD RASHID (48:49.297)
You

POD RASHID (48:53.018)
You're in.

POD RASHID (49:01.169)
Maybe.

I

POD RASHID (49:08.337)
I'm walking across the sea!

Marcus (49:12.583)
Bro, you wandered all that way from Egypt and now you tired?

I would have had to square up.

POD RASHID (49:19.569)
I feel like I had gone back then, since you tired.

Marcus (49:20.947)
Yeah, go. Yep, going back. God, you can see since you on God's side, he'll split it back open for you. Believe that go back.

POD RASHID (49:27.885)
Exactly. Go on back. See, how tired y'all are when you're building pyramids and s**t. Whatever the f**k the edge y'all

Marcus (49:34.965)
Guys, we're gonna go to sleep. God's gonna be like, listen here, n***a. Let me have a talk to you. like Miss McCallan, you know how you said he was kicking n****s out the DMT. He was kicking them out the DMT universe. He's gonna be like, come here, n***a. I'm gonna release a little DMT in your brain. You coming to me, n***a. Come here.

That n***a Hercules stepped in and that s**t came on fire and the animated one hit the statue came to life and s**t. That's exactly how I would enter the DMT realm. What are you, n***a? What are you out here doing? You tricking, n***a. Yeah, that's crazy. That's gonna be funny too. Breaking news. Breaking f*****g news.

POD RASHID (50:06.948)
Yeah

POD RASHID (50:16.369)
Get on over.

Marcus (50:29.148)
Aaron Rodgers.

agrees to a one-year contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Marcus (50:41.639)
After Terry Bradshaw said, f**k you. After Joy Taylor said.

with that just peanut butter skin. After she say it, you shouldn't be there. After Kim Heyward has some words for you, you to welcome back. And you heard.

POD RASHID (50:55.812)
You

Marcus (51:06.3)
Hey, dog, I'm not gonna lie, if you do anything less than a conference championship.

N***a, I'ma smack your whole azz.

POD RASHID (51:15.331)
Don't let me get a hold of you.

Marcus (51:16.964)
in yensburg n***a and you took a championship away from us n***a f**k that you owe me one run it up you always won in piss

POD RASHID (51:22.319)
You owe us one. You owe us another picture on this tile.

Marcus (51:29.704)
disrespectful bro. I'll smack the f**k out of you. Get in there throw some balls n***a.

POD RASHID (51:34.491)
That's a perfect segue into our sports.

Marcus (51:40.189)
sports.

And as a Pittsburgh fan, are you happy? Does this move the needle enough for you?

POD RASHID (51:50.875)
There's a 10, so we're talking a hundred percent, there's a 10 % chance of hope just cause it's like, do you got something left in you, bro? To do something cause like.

POD RASHID (52:09.401)
I wouldn't have signed him, but I mean, let's be honest. And it lies. I mean, we was talking about all those quarterbacks in the last 20 years. He's in the top, top five of them for stillers quarterbacks.

Marcus (52:24.145)
Yeah, I didn't want to, but at this point it's not necessary.

POD RASHID (52:28.081)
It is one of those like, if we're talking about the club s**t again, you are on an eight month. Exactly. You're on an eight month drought. Um, it's two 59 and y'all just been looking at each other the entire night. Both still been wanting to try and get somebody else, but it ain't happened.

Marcus (52:35.603)
That's 250.

POD RASHID (52:55.651)
Y'all just, y'all the only two m***********s left in the club. That's it. What the, I mean.

Marcus (53:01.427)
But y'all both just trying to get y'all s**t off.

POD RASHID (53:07.086)
It is what it is.

Marcus (53:08.357)
is what it is. let's just make it work.

Marcus (53:16.325)
sports.

POD RASHID (53:17.463)
Excited? I wouldn't say excited, but whatever.

Marcus (53:23.967)
Sports. UofL Baseball. Shout out to Dan McDonald. Shout out to... I think he's probably one of the better leaders I've ever been around. I don't think it's hard for me to say that. I mess with Dan McDonald for real. Good dude. Met him through FCA, Louisville's FCA program. Biggest in the country. Shout out to them. No, but...

They ended their season on like a seven, they lost seven out of their last 10. One of them was to Bellarmine. We didn't know how well our position was going to be in the playoffs. We got in that bad boy. Stuck us with number one, Vandy, who we have problems with in the postseason all the time.

We get out that bad boy.

POD RASHID (54:10.875)
We beat them.

Marcus (54:12.274)
I think we beat them. But then we had to play Wright State maybe for the regional title. beat them. So shout out to, like I said, I think my only takeaway is that when you're struggling, when years don't turn out the way that they are, you know, when you don't go 50 and 10 and things like that, when your year doesn't turn out damn, they're perfect. Great coaches matter. That's when they matter most.

actually. So years where you're on the cutting edge and you have your ups and you have your downs. But a great leader, that's the difference. That is literally the difference. The belief that I can be better than I was yesterday at any time of my life. Not just because yesterday went bad. Not just because the last week went bad. Not just because somebody died. Not just because I can still pick up and, you know.

keep progressing and focus on the goal and not get distracted on where I am at this second and just it takes a great leader man so I just wanted to say that and give them their love we want to talk about UofL baseball so shout out to them 10th time in 19 seasons that we've made it to the Super Regionals we didn't make one

Marcus (55:36.38)
We had zero NCAA wins before he pulled up. Tournament wins. Now we have 10 of the last 19. Super regionals. But big deal. Trey Mitchell, old University of Kentucky basketball player. Not old, a few years ago. During an interview with the Field of 68, new Louisville signee, Sananda Fru

Said he was told by a teammate in Germany that the Cardinal fans are the best in the world. His teammate, former Kentucky forward, Trey Mitchell.

My team quote unquote, free said my teammate, he played a Kentucky last year. He told me Louisville like they have the best fans in the world. Basically they've already reached out and sent me some DMS. I'm super thankful, super happy. And I can't wait to get over and touchdown on Louisville. So shout out to Sananda Fru is officially a Louisville for one for two.

POD RASHID (56:16.666)
See ya.

Marcus (56:41.083)
Tell him right, Trey Mitchell. Yeah, we sent him over there. He's a double agent. Double agent, yes sir. Sleeper cell, baby, let's go.

POD RASHID (56:47.373)
I swear, sleep in cell.

Hehehehe

Marcus (56:55.057)
You weren't supposed to expose this like that, but I'll take it.

POD RASHID (56:58.481)
I wonder what the code word would be for him.

Marcus (57:01.403)
Code word Trey Mitchell.

POD RASHID (57:04.881)
to activate the sleeper cell.

Marcus (57:10.331)
Calamari, it's close to Calipari.

POD RASHID (57:12.989)
Hehehehehe! Inviting you on from Calamari!

Marcus (57:18.805)
uh... uh... Ellen, why are you?

POD RASHID (57:21.477)
And then they just...

Marcus (57:23.459)
Mmm... Edgar Sosa Edgar Sosa Edgar Sosa my favorite player.

POD RASHID (57:26.337)
Taekwon, ding n***a

Marcus (57:34.683)
Tequan Dean N***a Patrick Sparks n***a you lucky his foot so f*****g small n***a

POD RASHID (57:41.073)
People around was like what's going on?

Marcus (57:49.489)
Oh s**t, That be hilarious. That be hilarious. He'd be like, Bam Adebayo n***a. got a thing. You got a pair of ankles, n***a. Quentin and Quentin Snider's locker in the Yum Center & You left them there. What's up, Bam? In the rafters, they retired your ankles, get my little n****s is there.

POD RASHID (58:00.849)
You're all... They heating up, n***a. They at Ballard High School.

If you look at them.

Marcus (58:16.549)
maybe maybe maybe maybe Tik Tokin' in the front of that m**********r that's what we train with n***a a pair of ankles n***a NBA ankles you won't heat n***a I'll bring it to Miami

POD RASHID (58:21.553)
They play with your ankles like.

Marcus (58:36.773)
You know what's brewing big B's.

POD RASHID (58:38.661)
Big B's n***a.

Marcus (58:43.057)
But anyways, yeah, I get on his azz. I f**k with you, Bam. You got a bad chick. You got a bad little chicky, chicky, chicky. I might be donating to the Bam retirement fund. I'm gonna have to buy some Aja Wilson material for my daughters. So at the end of the day, I'm helping you.

Anyway.

POD RASHID (59:02.289)
We in this together.

Marcus (59:04.912)
Speaking of college basketball, Cooper Flagg

POD RASHID (59:10.129)
Ooh, Mr. Big Bucks

Marcus (59:12.89)
Come on, bro. These n****s literally went from just making no money to making 28 million. Shabazz Napier was not that long ago. He said he was starving. He literally auditioned for starving Marvin on South Park.

Marcus (59:29.776)
They told him no because he was a college athlete. rumor, that's rumor though, that's rumor because he couldn't get paid for it, you feel me? like, that's just rumor. That's just rumor. Token, token would have had company.

POD RASHID (59:30.033)
And...

This crazy-

POD RASHID (59:37.433)
Yeah, that's insane.

What was I gonna say? The man could live off that the rest of his life. He could retire from basketball and not even ever get drafted. $28 million, bro?

Marcus (59:51.684)
And what did he play? What did he play? October to March?

POD RASHID (59:56.209)
Come on.

Marcus (59:57.648)
So you work a six month contract and you're good for life.

POD RASHID (01:00:02.065)
for life. Now you see why he wanted to kind of come back. was, you know, I don't think it was ever like the number one option, but he spoke about it you see what like, why wouldn't I? I made $28 million.

Marcus (01:00:04.078)
A lot of

Marcus (01:00:20.752)
And he didn't have to work as hard, you know what saying? Like in the NBA, he's going to have to do more. Advertisement, endorsements, this and that, blah, blah. He didn't have to work as hard. No, he's going have to work. Yep. And now his contracts are rumored to be four years, 62, 64 million with the Dallas Mavericks if he's picked as the number one pick, which would be 16 million a year. Which if you supplement that along with his shoe contracts and other endorsements, he'll probably make more. But at the of the day, he has to work harder. has to play a lot more games. 82 games compared to half that.

POD RASHID (01:00:28.133)
More from us.

POD RASHID (01:00:43.802)
Yeah.

POD RASHID (01:00:51.825)
The man got to live a "college" lifestyle and got paid 28 million. So yeah, we ain't got to go into specifics, but you know what, come along. That's what I'm saying.

Marcus (01:00:56.333)
A million.

Do you think he even went to school for 28 million? How are you a student athlete? You're just an athlete. Who is playing cosplay and a student?

POD RASHID (01:01:14.331)
Right.

Marcus (01:01:14.575)
There's no way we just had Dr. Lauren on here. And that's what I'm saying. Like, there's no way. And that's no offense. I'm not saying Cooper is just for that or people who do the one and done or just stereotyping them all as the same because they're obviously not. Jaylen Brown was the one and done. So that's why I'm not going to stereotype them because I think a lot of Jaylen Brown. But that was established in him as a kid, his mom's an educator and stuff. I don't hear any of that with Cooper Flagg

Know what I'm saying? Just giving it a buck, so... For most people, it's not gonna be the case. Jaylen Brown is actually the anomaly.

So I'm not gonna put them in there. So that's what I'm saying. So like, there's no way that you can realistically, if you're paying me $28 million for a semester's worth of actual on-court product, that I'm actually doing my schoolwork. I have 28 million reasons that I'm obligated to do otherwise.

POD RASHID (01:02:16.069)
Damn, hey!

POD RASHID (01:02:20.667)
I literally, wouldn't care. mean, let's be honest.

Marcus (01:02:23.854)
I'm not saying he's smart, dumb, he doesn't care, he does care. The point is, if time is money, what is $28 million in that span? That means I'm everything, everything, to get this team a championship. I'm doing everything to be the number one pick. I'm doing everything. Because I'm 30 million invested in me. I'm not, what's the education going to give me? Residually. That's why I'm like, you know, and like I said,

I don't know if I have an issue with free market and stuff like that, but we literally just went from zero to 30 million for one year's work. We're too far past the point where we're not investing in ourselves in a serious fashion. I'm not saying Duke needs 30 million, but the education system does. They need 30 million, like JCPES needs 30 million.

more than Cooper Flagg does. And I don't want to do all that, you know, but it seemed that was like, damn, 30 million for him? He's one kid. What about this one of the biggest school systems in America? You know what saying? It's just s**t like that where I'm just like, we claim we have these problems, but I don't know if we do. I think we're the problem.

POD RASHID (01:03:34.577)
All

POD RASHID (01:03:40.753)
They're going to have to put a cap on it. mean, it's just going to have to come with more regulation.

Marcus (01:03:45.931)
is coming is coming.

POD RASHID (01:03:49.443)
It just has to be a max cap for like, this is the most you can give a player.

Marcus (01:03:54.277)
So, so Cooper Flagg is going to be Sam Bradford. He's going to be the last one that slides out with that big dealie

POD RASHID (01:03:59.437)
It has to be bro. $30 million bro. For like you said, six months.

Marcus (01:04:05.559)
That's how much Baker Mayfield made in his first contract with the Cleveland Browns.

POD RASHID (01:04:11.983)
the, that's what, four or five years exactly.

Marcus (01:04:12.717)
Entire contract at a professional as a quarterback one of the most prestigious positions There's only 32 of them. They're a face of a franchise There's very few people bigger than you remember how many commercials but Baker Mayfield used to do

POD RASHID (01:04:30.225)
State Farm, s**t.

Marcus (01:04:31.297)
Direct TV, and his whole contract was worth what you got paid.

POD RASHID (01:04:40.229)
six months to be a college student.

Marcus (01:04:45.023)
And you didn't win the championship. Did he won player of the year? Okay.

POD RASHID (01:04:49.681)
Yeah, he went away at a year, freshman of the year.

Marcus (01:04:54.893)
For 28 million, you gotta win me a championship. I'm gonna go f**k. And if I'm paying you one person over 20 million, you have to bring me a championship.

POD RASHID (01:04:58.277)
You gotta bring some home.

Marcus (01:05:05.357)
I don't care if that's what the free market says. This is what I'm telling you. Otherwise, I'm done. I gave you 20 million, we're done. Cool, I appreciate you. But, no. So.

Marcus (01:05:27.509)
Also, I don't know if I believe it, Duke's private with their numbers, they probably paid them 10 million, 20, 15 million, but probably had other people pick up the rest. New Balance, shoe companies, things like that. Like out of their pocket, out of Duke's pocket.

POD RASHID (01:05:44.625)
10 million is people's whole rosters for college and this has

Marcus (01:05:47.774)
I know, North Carolina just spent 13 million on their roster, think. And that's top five.

POD RASHID (01:05:56.379)
So, yeah.

Marcus (01:06:04.052)
Otega Oweh And then shout out to C.L. Brown for this Courier Journal. Give him a follow. He gave me, not really for this, but I heard him talk this week and I kind of got this perspective from him. Is NIL money giving us back the type of college players we fell in love with? The fringe ones? Not giving us the college basketball players, the college basketball we fell in love with. The fringe players aren't going.

just because of money, because they can get money at the crib. You feel me? So I don't need to go to the NBA. So Otega Oweh, who would be like normally a player like him would definitely go to the NBA, is looking and like, no, I'll stay another year. No, stay another year. I'm getting paid anyways. What the f**k? So is it bringing back where we're we look in like three or four years and we're like, we're back, baby. We got we got three or four year players or, you know, or guys who

He could be an NBA talent, sure. And a lot of guys, he could be an NBA talent, sure. But he came back actually.

POD RASHID (01:07:11.119)
Yeah, think Colin was, Colin Cowhert was talking about that. He was saying that he was either him or another radio show, but basically, yeah, it's going to allow some of those players to come back, which in the long run will benefit the NBA because you're getting more college ready players. Right now in the NBA,

If you're older than if you're 21 or older and you're just now going to the draft, you kind of already have a mark against you because they're like, no, I want the 18, 19 year olds that, you know, have the most potential and not you older dudes. But this will.

basically keep older kids in college in return those younger kids, unless you're just the phenom, you're going to come in, you're going to have to not get either at the bench or not get that much playing time your first or second year. So then you can't come out until, you know, your junior, senior year. So it, it will do that. It still needs regulation. Nobody should be making 30. I mean, I'll get your money, but

Must be real 30 million. Right.

Marcus (01:08:31.834)
His making more than the coach right and that's and that's another issue like you

POD RASHID (01:08:37.467)
So, but yeah, I think that it will have an effect like that to where players are coming into the league more ready, which will knock down some of the bust and yeah.

Marcus (01:08:52.843)
make for stronger overall rosters, better basketball, s**t like that. Tom Thibodeau fired this week by the New York Knicks after his Eastern Conference final loss and him and the Knicks Eastern Conference final loss to the Indiana Pacers who worked their way up to NBA championship final spot tonight against Oklahoma City Thunder. But with that being said...

POD RASHID (01:08:57.062)
Right.

Marcus (01:09:22.111)
We think he was the issue, or the most prominent one of the issues that they had.

POD RASHID (01:09:29.647)
I'm drawing, I'm not going to lie, these aren't original thoughts. I'm drawing my thoughts from stuff I've seen, Gills Arena, radio shows. Basically on some of those shows they were saying, Tibbido and this is known that he's really hard on his players. He gets like a six or seven players and y'all going to play y'all. That's it. Y'all going, we going to.

play the s**t out of y'all, you're going be tired, but it's what it is. My rotation's small. So on Gills Arena, they were saying like, yeah, I would have got rid of him. Me overall, I don't think it was exactly him. mean, like, I feel like they, I feel like they maxed out, you know, what he could do. Now he could have expanded his rotation some to, especially earlier in the playoffs to give, you know, them more rest, but.

Marcus (01:10:17.707)
Okay.

POD RASHID (01:10:26.769)
I mean, Jalen Brunson as good as he is, he holds the ball a lot, dribbles the ball a lot. Tell me how a cat don't play, you know, defense like that. And he's probably a little overweight compared to, you know, he just wants to shoot. And so you're you're the biggest dude on the court and all you're doing is shooting and not playing defense. Like that's literally the opposite of traditional centers. I know we have.

An updated center now, but like, come on, like you're just shooting and you're not playing defense.

So, I mean, I feel like it's just a few tweaks in there. They're the ones playing in the finals. They, I mean, they completely choked. Well, the game one or game two. And then you lose both games at home. That right there, we already said that. Me and you said that. We like, when you those games, you win the series. said, you already won the games you ain't supposed to win. That's it. It's over.

Marcus (01:11:04.33)
POD RASHID (01:11:34.353)
Even if it went to seven games, it's like you, you ain't bout to pull that out. So there are a few tweaks away from being in the finals themselves. So no, to answer your question, I don't think it's on Tibbido. And I don't know who they're going to get to where they think that it's just going to flip that s**t.

Marcus (01:12:01.226)
He kinda touched on everything I was gonna say. I don't think he was the issue. I think they may have let him go because they have somebody in mind who would be better than him. I'd be interested if that person is Mike Malone.

Marcus (01:12:19.848)
because he had it, he had an issue with, because Leon Rose, good GM, assistant GM, Allen Houston at New York Knicks, he had a reputation there of playing older players and not playing younger players. You know what saying? So.

POD RASHID (01:12:30.319)
be the same thing.

POD RASHID (01:12:37.307)
This is my rotation and if you're not in it, you're not in it.

Marcus (01:12:40.731)
Right, so unless New York is about to give him a veteran-laden roster where he doesn't have to do that and they're all OGs basically, even the youngest one is somewhat of OG, then, or the young players just don't play and most of them are OGs, then I can see Mike Malone doing that. But I still see roster deficiencies with New York Knicks, which is just as big of a problem. And they need someone who works in better conjunction with Jaylen Branson.

who covers up some of his flaws a little bit and really compliments him better. And towns need somebody like that too. Simple as that.

So besides the Villanova boys in towns, everybody else is on alert. Maybe OG.

POD RASHID (01:13:28.035)
OG, I would keep him. I need an OG on my team.

Marcus (01:13:29.769)
Me too, I like OG a lot. I like OG a lot. I like OG, So I see that being the case, but yeah, it's a lot of things. Jalen Brunson dribbling the ball too much. They need to be better at ball control. He needs to be better at delegation, ball movement opportunities for other players because Haliburton was getting his guys to ball and I don't feel Jaylen Brunson did as good of a job as he did. And he needs to get better at that. He needs to get better at.

POD RASHID (01:13:58.705)
at the same time.

Marcus (01:13:59.195)
letting less control, being in control, but not being in control of the ball while he does it.

POD RASHID (01:14:05.285)
Like, and I agree with that, but at the same time, s**t, if you look at, mean, cause I was actually, and I know you were too, watching the games.

they be trying to find them. Like they don't know what to do with it sometimes.

Marcus (01:14:20.594)
Yes, true, true, which is why I he needs better complimentary pieces around. I agree.

POD RASHID (01:14:26.097)
Like hard would be like, where's Brunson? You know what mean? Instead of like, yeah, instead of like, let me get to my spot and do what I do.

Marcus (01:14:30.824)
Art and bridges both do the same.

Marcus (01:14:38.32)
It's just like Jaylen Brunson 6'1". He can only do so much.

POD RASHID (01:14:42.353)
Right.

Marcus (01:14:44.452)
So you throw a double team at them at the end of the shot clock, you can't do anything.

Marcus (01:14:51.272)
So don't throw him the ball when it's at the end of f*****g shot clock. Let him get all his shots in rhythm.

So I said better complimentary pleases. Gabby Thomas hecklers. I love Gabby Thomas. Sprinter, tall black chick from Harvard. Angel Reese had her issues with harassment online. Some people, I don't know with that situation. like, got Lance McCullers. I don't know if you've seen the baseball player, but they had to get security for him and his family after he's been.

doing so bad that he's been getting death threats. I'm just kinda like, I'm not gonna lie, all y'all n****s get death threats all the time. This is what it is, part of fame.

So, and I think their leagues need to do a better job at protecting them actually because they're the one capitalizing on their fame. They're not trying to capitalize on their fame, they're just trying to do a job. Y'all put all that s**t in their face. So y'all need to cover that s**t.

That's just me, yeah.

POD RASHID (01:15:55.471)
Yep, I agree. didn't see her getting death threats though, but I could imagine how scared it is for a black woman her age, you know, in this country.

Marcus (01:16:08.411)
Hell yeah, as a woman getting death threats for one. And like you said, black woman too, adds a little more nuance to the hate and a little more real, realness to it. I can't imagine a white woman would feel the same way a black woman would about the level of the threat based on the historical evidence of.

Marcus (01:16:38.789)
balance to black women specifically or black people specifically or the intersectionality of them both. But anyways, Gabby Thomas, Sprinter, some dude basically tried to psych her out, run around the track with her, Gabby Thomas gonna lose, he's talking s**t, know, blah, Bro, she was part of his parlay, that's why he was doing it, to win it back.

He's a big time better. Like he actually has like, forgot what his name is. Mr. 100 K something. Mr. 100 K a day or something. So he got banned by Fandula or whoever and they banned him. Said, we done with that. We're not dealing with that. Cause you not, you literally like fixing a race to go on top of that. Like you literally harassing the win.

so they banned them. Shadow banned. Isn't that crazy? That's where we're we're betting right

POD RASHID (01:17:23.569)
He deserves it.

POD RASHID (01:17:30.843)
That's going to be another Black Mirror episode.

Marcus (01:17:34.404)
Gotta be. It has to be. They gotta do bad.

POD RASHID (01:17:35.761)
They keep going, but like betting and how the effect it's had on just how fantasy it 

Marcus (01:17:46.372)
Right, perception. Ooh, as is true, it's f****d up our perception of it. It really has.

POD RASHID (01:17:51.025)
Like that kind of, there's something I got, hold on. It ain't the same, but since we're on, we're kind of here. Do have more sports? Okay, you can keep going then, cause I got mine. We good.

Marcus (01:18:04.302)
Yeah, I do.

Marcus (01:18:09.52)
I only have like one more, I think. One more sports, but. Or two. Shout out to Coco Gauff. I'm a huge Coco Gauff fan. I like Madison Keys a lot too. Another American. Mixed. She's big, long, athletic. I like Madison Keys. Coco Gauff, super athletic. Love her. My favorite American woman right now. And by the way, I'm not really into men's tennis.

I'm not gonna lie to you, really into women's tennis. My mom played tennis, so. I love major tennis, we got the French Open going on. But Coco cooled off Madison Keys, had to, Coco Kudoff, Keys, be the segment. But over Madison Keys in three sets, they were at like 5 a.m. yesterday morning. Like, geez Louise, that's early. So I was on my way to work, I was in the third set, watched that, it was a great match.

Two Americans playing each other in the major always draws eyes, but Madison Keys has been on fire though. She finished last year in whale and then started this year with the major win at the Australian Open over Sabalinkas.

Marcus (01:19:27.15)
Shout out to two Americans for I'm not really that person where I like I love Coco, but I just love seeing Americans do they thing because we're minority antennas. We are my boy Tiafoe lost. I love him.

Marcus (01:19:46.544)
You tasted me.

What time did episode drop? they want this s**t now. I don't know. Moving on. Remember when you talked about the freaky azz doctors of the Big Ten?

POD RASHID (01:20:04.399)
Wait, who are you talking about for the episode drop?

Marcus (01:20:08.294)
Darn it. He said, time the episode dropped? Like, damn.

POD RASHID (01:20:11.793)
Yeah

Marcus (01:20:15.366)
Damn, n***a. I might text a bunch of people and say, I'm going live for the second half of the game tonight, so go ahead and download that, but I'm gonna do some s**t or something. Because I'm like, damn, n***a, I can't edit in that time, n***a, what you talking about? N***a, s**t. All right, bye. Remember me and you've talked about, though, the freaky-ass doctors of the Big Ten? We have historical evidence.

POD RASHID (01:20:17.421)
This s**t's hot n***a.

POD RASHID (01:20:33.371)
But anyway, yeah.

POD RASHID (01:20:38.896)
Yeah.

Marcus (01:20:44.815)
Penn State, azz n****s. Michigan State, freak azz n****s. Michigan got in trouble too I thought, freak azz n****s. Northwestern got in trouble, that was the latest one man you talked about I'm pretty sure, freak azz n****s. And now, our neighbors bro, who's our big 10 neighbors?

POD RASHID (01:21:10.906)
Indiana.

Marcus (01:21:12.165)
A former physician for the Indiana men's basketball team has been accused of improper sexual conduct by at least 15 former players. The former IU players allege that Dr. Bradford Bomba regularly performed rectal exams on

POD RASHID (01:21:28.121)
It might be, it is a scam n***a.

Marcus (01:21:34.883)
God don't misspeak when he's You heard me. All right. Regular exams on athletes during physicals, despite medical guidelines, not recommending such exams for college-aged men. In the lawsuit, the men say Bamba's exams constituted sexual misconduct. And that university officials, as well as longtime coach Bob Knight, were aware and failed to intervene. Knight died in 2020.

POD RASHID (01:21:36.974)
Exactly.

Marcus (01:22:06.157)
So we Joe Pa'ing 'em with his job Joe Pa died actually afterward didn't he?

POD RASHID (01:22:10.031)
Yes. Yep.

POD RASHID (01:22:14.993)
That's

POD RASHID (01:22:20.773)
Why is it?

There has to be more stories from different schools. There's no way that it keeps being the big 10. That's weird. That's like, they only hire certain demographic. Yes, like, don't know. That's strange, bro.

Marcus (01:22:31.588)
Yeah,

freaky ass n****s

Marcus (01:22:42.338)
And you know, they work with Team USA with the gymnast stuff. that's where, you know, I'm like, yup, yup, yup. Michigan State, Michigan. So yeah, man, I just, I don't know what the big 10s issue is, bro. Why you like booty hole exams, bro?

POD RASHID (01:22:47.151)
Mm-hmm. That's what at Michigan, that's where Michigan comes in. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with it.

POD RASHID (01:23:02.543)
We gotta dig a little deeper and see like, what's going on?

Marcus (01:23:05.856)
Might have to. No. Yeah. No freaky s**t. We're going to dig a little deeper.

POD RASHID (01:23:11.825)
For real, because it keeps being the same conference? Come on.

POD RASHID (01:23:20.625)
Like, that's what I'm seeing. It's just like, some deeper than the surface there.

Marcus (01:23:20.996)
I don't know what to say about that. I really don't.

Good

Marcus (01:23:30.212)
Plus a n***a Remy went there too. I'm like, oh my gosh.

POD RASHID (01:23:34.895)
Yeah, he did.

Marcus (01:23:36.58)
You know

POD RASHID (01:23:40.625)
flow and drew

Marcus (01:23:42.948)
flowing Drew. F**k.

Yeah, I don't like that, that's weird.

That's weird. besides that, I was going to s**t Musk, that n***a is opposing Trump now. You know, he stepped down. He's not part of Doge. He's going back to what he's doing. Now he's slamming Trump's big, beautiful bill. He said, after all these budget cuts I made and you going to go back and spend all this money. Say, yes, sir. That's how I needed you. That's what I needed you for. Thank you, sir. Bye Musk. Bye. Thank you.

That's how Trump does it everybody.

POD RASHID (01:24:22.545)
So when you're, I'm sorry to make it about, I'm sorry to make it about race. When your white azz get used up and you finally see that it's not just about race, know, we're not seeing certain things just because of the certain color is like, no, this is what it is. Like, n***a.

Marcus (01:24:24.417)
You're fired!

Marcus (01:24:43.095)
We know Trump's a bargainer. We know he'll do whatever, you know. I'll let you South Africaners in. I'm not gonna let no black people in. I'm gonna let South Africaners, white people specifically, not the black ones though, because they're taking their land. We're gonna let the white ones in. You're gonna do what you're gonna do for me. I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do for you. And we're done. That's how he does everybody. He does everybody like that. And that's what we try to warn people about when it came to his morality and the nature and his morality is because...

He's a bargainer. So he will bargain. We've talked about this. He'll bargain the marginal chips all day. While people who come from marginal communities will never do that because they know that those people...

need more.

Marcus (01:25:32.279)
from the people representing them, from the people protecting them, from the people, you know, just interesting. And then, Marjorie Taylor Greene.

Butch blonde built.

POD RASHID (01:25:44.985)
yes. Precisely.

Marcus (01:25:49.762)
tweeted out she wasn't aware of a particular part of a bill she supported. Otherwise, she wouldn't have signed it.

Marcus (01:25:59.638)
Bitch, you had one job, to be a politician, to read a bill.

POD RASHID (01:26:09.189)
And even if it ain't you specifically reading it, b***h, you better have somebody on your team that goes and reads every single sentence.

Marcus (01:26:15.318)
So now I'm worried about your team.

POD RASHID (01:26:22.555)
F**k outta here.

Marcus (01:26:23.222)
Let the, like we say, let the right eat itself. Because it's eating. It's eating. Them n****s are starving. They gotta eat something, but they go eat themselves.

And then shout out to OG Stew at OG Stew on X. Now y'all made a big deal about Wayne performing at the Super Bowl just to take away from Dot's moment. Just for Wayne to not even feature his own city on his album tour.

POD RASHID (01:26:58.735)
Interesting point.

POD RASHID (01:27:03.745)
is it the, does my dude, that s**t? I don't think man, I don't know if I got some type.

Marcus (01:27:09.088)
Put two thumbs down, put two thumbs down.

POD RASHID (01:27:15.995)
Damn. no.

Marcus (01:27:18.717)
Yeah, but anyways

POD RASHID (01:27:20.657)
because you got the little...

Marcus (01:27:22.018)
Yeah, I don't know why it does that. think I need to upgrade the program so we can both be on there as hosts.

POD RASHID (01:27:38.875)
That's

Marcus (01:27:38.902)
I heard a story when I went down to New Orleans, shout out to Sugar Bowl Champs, shout out to Vante, all 'em cats Calvin Pryor, Teddy Bridgewater.

Marcus (01:27:53.378)
Where's my boy's name? Terrell? Terrell? Whatever. Shut all them cats though. Hell of a squad. We were down in New Orleans, bro. We did a tour around the city. The tour guide, his brother, I don't think is a Charbonnet. Remember the backup running back for the Seattle Seahawks? I'm pretty sure it was his brother. Could be wrong.

POD RASHID (01:28:13.957)
Yes, yep.

Marcus (01:28:18.464)
It was something running back for the Seattle Seahawks, and I'm pretty sure Charbonnet sounds like the most French name since they're from New Orleans. So I could be totally wrong, could be making it up, but I'm pretty sure I'm right. Anyways.

He says, because you know, like I tell everybody, I grew up in a household, we was bumping Big Thomas, Juvi, Hot Boys, know, Manny Fresh, all that stuff. I was like, how do y'all feel about it? Because we grew up on it. They was like, man, they left New Orleans. They left New Orleans, NOrleans man. It was like they went to Miami South Beach. It was like, they don't mess with the community like that. Juvi do, they said juvi do.

POD RASHID (01:28:53.658)
I do.

Marcus (01:28:58.272)
But imagine BG and Turk was still locked up at the time. So they was like, do, know, Juve and Manny, lot Birdman and Wayne, because this was at the time of Young Money was popular and stuff like that. like none of Young Money, you know, they just use it for what they use it for. I'm like, damn, that's how the people of New Orleans feel. And then you have something like this come out and I'm like, oh, okay. You can say what you want to about Jack Harlow. He'll do three shows in Kentucky.

He'll do five shows in Kentucky. He'll do a couple in Louisville. He'll start at an end in Louisville. He'll do both for you.

No, because I'm, you know, people can feel they want to about Jack Harlow but don't say he don't do s**t for it. And people around him. So it's like, but then you got n****s like Wayne, whose own his remix, the hottest remix, s**t popping remix, who Francis Dumsdorf made the cover art for.

POD RASHID (01:29:43.385)
He definitely tries to put on for the city.

POD RASHID (01:30:02.609)
That's crazy.

Marcus (01:30:03.626)
That our Francis Dumstorf

Marcus (01:30:07.774)
The poppin' remakes, remember they're all lined in like cartoon and it's like purple outlined in black. Francis made that, that's his. That's his thumbnail. He's also done a couple videos for Trinidad James.

POD RASHID (01:30:14.481)
That's crazy.

POD RASHID (01:30:25.211)
Wow. Shout out Francis.

Marcus (01:30:28.309)
Shut up and Zeke in this m**********r. be trying to tell you n****s I trying to tell you.

POD RASHID (01:30:30.991)
Again. Again.

Marcus (01:30:35.55)
But that's it. What else you got?

POD RASHID (01:30:39.153)
Let's see, hold on second.

All right. So back to.

The finals tonight, you're talking about Pacers and Thunder. Now, this is with sports. This is with wrestling. This is with movies. I'm tired of this s**t.

Marcus (01:31:08.608)
Are we going? have a feeling I already know where this is going. Keep going here.

POD RASHID (01:31:13.361)
Since when did?

box office numbers, ratings, viewership. Since when did that f*****g matter to what you like?

Marcus (01:31:28.234)
that it drives the product.

POD RASHID (01:31:31.833)
Like I keep so for the most relevant thing is the finals tonight. And I put this on my TikTok. The viewership, man, this is going... If you really like basketball, you know in your heart this is about to be a great series to watch. What the f**k does the viewership matter? Are you getting paid for that?

Marcus (01:31:40.716)
hey my god my gosh why are we talking about that why are we talking these are the two

Marcus (01:32:00.148)
These two are-

POD RASHID (01:32:00.217)
Maybe if you worked for the NBA and like that was your job. Okay.

Marcus (01:32:03.473)
Right, beside, right, right. If you collecting a check, be a hoe for the check. I don't care. I do it sometimes too at work. I'll go in, I don't like the situation, I'll still do it. I understand.

POD RASHID (01:32:15.259)
But when it's not affecting us, we are just fans that want to watch some good basketball. Why does that matter?

Marcus (01:32:22.204)
A good product. They have the two best records since the end of All-Star break. Out of all the teams. So literally the two best teams who are, the two teams who are playing the best made it there. Would you want to have it any other way? I don't, I want to know the last time that stat you know, drummed up, but come on.

POD RASHID (01:32:39.835)
Mike.

POD RASHID (01:32:44.433)
Who cares if the casual fan ain't watching, like, there has nothing to, like, it's not affecting you.

Marcus (01:32:50.888)
That's lame. That's lame. That's like, low hanging fruit. And don't eat that s**t. The low hanging fruit. Don't eat that.

POD RASHID (01:32:52.375)
WAAAAY

POD RASHID (01:33:01.297)
then with wrestling, it's a lot of, we still in the era right now of AEW versus WWE. And a lot of WWE fans, their comebacks be the viewership, or look at them just like, so what? First off, WWE came about when cable was huge. So they have basically grandfathered in people that, I mean, they're gonna keep watching it, cuz they know that's how they watch.

AW came around in 2019. We had been plenty of years out of cable being the biggest thing. And it's about streaming and stuff like that. So no, they're not going to put up as big of a number. They might not ever.

Marcus (01:33:46.964)
I'm not even going to invest in it as much.

POD RASHID (01:33:50.491)
So it's just like, why is, and then regardless, why does that matter? Do you like the product or not? That's fine, you know, to talk about like, that segment was weak because of this, not because of the view. Who f*****g cares? And then.

Marcus (01:33:58.771)
Good night.

Marcus (01:34:09.596)
Hey man. Nah, go ahead, go ahead.

POD RASHID (01:34:12.593)
No, and then was about to finish it up with movies. It's the same thing. People arguing online, Captain America, Brave New World. that was a flop. Like, DEI Captain America was a flop. And it's just like, did you like the movie or not? Like, why is that the argument that regular Joe's are f*****g arguing with? Like that...

Marcus (01:34:32.498)
Right.

POD RASHID (01:34:41.495)
using that as an arguing point. Why's that happening?

Marcus (01:34:43.326)
Why is your conscious so tainted that you can't look at things with an unbiased film over your eyes? Why does it have to be biased? Why? Why can't something just be? And don't get me wrong, I've been the same way. I've talked to Adomo about somebody and been like, his sales was azz. His sales was just completely azz. He was like, well, the sales, and it was very bad too. was a very bad sale.

POD RASHID (01:35:10.043)
Yeah.

Marcus (01:35:10.558)
But he was just like, well, you know, you got to understand, it don't sell like that no more. can't judge everything off of that. And that was in a mindset where I'm like, well, no, this m**********r, he's this, he's that. He got money backing him. He's got to. But that's also the issue of why this s**t turns out the way it does. Like me and you talked about f*****g, that's why we can't watch.

you know, the old Lion King on cable because they still have to make the money up from the new Lion King and have to pay those people residuals. And I'm sure there's some contract talking about, well, if this, you know, I'm sure all that stuff. mean, it's, it sucks because it feels like the greatest things that we grew up on are tainted. Everything. Sports wasn't this tainted with betting. Movies wasn't this tainted with, with.

It was, I'll be honest with you, film was. Wrestling wasn't this tainted. know, Montreal screw job.

and forward, you know, really, really when it comes to not saying, you know, but you know, you understand what I'm saying. It wasn't it wasn't it wasn't. Right, right, right. It wasn't a collective conscious. Lightning ride that we go to when something doesn't look the way that we that doesn't that doesn't go the way we thought it would go. And now we run to this lightning rod, you know.

POD RASHID (01:36:15.727)
know, wasn't, that wasn't the arguing point of viewership.

Marcus (01:36:36.901)
Same way white people claim that black people do when something's racist. You know what saying? y'all running everything's racist. Well, y'all running and saying everything's this. I'll do the same thing. And that's not fair to judge. You're talking about art. Everything you're talking about is art. quantifying it and making it a commodity is not the intention of creating art. So.

We f****d it up. Capitalism has entirely f****d up our art, the way we express ourselves. And that goes back to money being the root of, or me and you talk about all the time, f**k that, the lack of money, the lack of resources leads to crime. The lack of resources is the root of all evil. So the people who are actually holding back and creating this atmosphere based on the resources,

POD RASHID (01:37:06.321)
because

Marcus (01:37:36.526)
Those are the ones who are actually in fault. We're me and you, yes, we're in fault for fighting each other over that dollar. But even more is the person who has a hundred dollars in our pocket, threw the dollar out there and is watching us fight over it to our deaths. That's the one. So that's what you got to understand. Like you get into these, you get into it with somebody at work, you get into it, this and that. It's about the people above you pitting it.

Marcus (01:38:05.53)
At my job, they're making more money, the union is, and Ford is off dividing and conquering when it comes to the work. Instead of giving it all to one company, they split it up. They give more workers at each company the union does, and then that gets more union dues for them, so they don't care who they were giving the work to. So then they give the work to a competitor.

Marcus (01:38:26.044)
See what I'm saying? So now you drumming up something. You're hiring more people at this one. You snatching away work from this one and giving it to this one. But they all working in the same pressure cooker. Now you're making them fight when really you're the one doing the dirt.

So you just gotta take that with you, you know what saying? Whoever's listening, take that with you, with anything in life. When you get into it with somebody, think about what's really controlling and manipulating the situation.

before you blame even each other.

POD RASHID (01:38:57.925)
Birds eye view.

Marcus (01:38:59.247)
Yeah, yeah, that's about it.

POD RASHID (01:39:03.217)
I got four quick ones about wrestling. I'm just going to say them and then we'll end with this last thing. So Vince is making a new company called 14 and I, Vince is in Vince McMahon.

Marcus (01:39:04.411)
don't know if you got any thank you.

Marcus (01:39:18.251)
I don't like it. Because I don't like it. It's at 14 and high? That sounds weird.

POD RASHID (01:39:20.529)
Yeah.

POD RASHID (01:39:25.429)
I don't know what they're going to meet. I don't f*****g know, he's, he's, yeah. So.

Marcus (01:39:28.218)
EEEH

Marcus (01:39:31.579)
If Epstein created that, if R. Kelly created that, woo! N***a, if the Jewish mosque in New York created that.

POD RASHID (01:39:33.882)
Be on the lookout.

Marcus (01:39:43.675)
Shout out to our Jewish brethrens.

POD RASHID (01:39:44.195)
Metro Boomin and WWE are gonna collab on some new themes. So he might bring back some good azz themes for them, cuz they need them right now.

Marcus (01:39:55.511)
s**t off metro?

But really do so though, because this was my man's dream right here. That's something that he needs to do. And you are age, bro. Just don't get mad and don't do something with it. Don't be like Travis Scott. Don't f**k something up.

POD RASHID (01:40:13.137)
Right, right. I think Metro, he gonna bring some heat. Exactly.

Marcus (01:40:19.545)
Does he ever not? I'm trying to see future in that mug.

POD RASHID (01:40:25.541)
The other two about rest and we can, we got to go.

Marcus (01:40:28.86)
21 Savage in future on the Metro Beat.

POD RASHID (01:40:34.385)
That just like, what's your name over in AW? Like, yeah, he might start bringing new people in, especially there's a lot of black people coming out from NXT right now. So.

Marcus (01:40:46.171)
You get Jey Uso swagging his way down to some s**t like that? You got me. I'm gonna keep it a buck. You literally have me.

POD RASHID (01:40:55.441)
Once his current theme loses its steam, like those are the type of people you need to make the theme for. Yeah.

Marcus (01:41:00.943)

Marcus (01:41:07.961)

POD RASHID (01:41:08.867)

I was hoping, I was like, go over there too and do some stuff with them.

Marcus (01:41:20.539)
Come on Lex Luger. Lex Luger we need you. He'd be perfect for somebody like Moxley and

POD RASHID (01:41:22.873)

POD RASHID (01:41:30.795)
Death riders and s**t

Marcus (01:41:32.537)
Yes, yeah, he'd be perfect. That's what they need to do. That's what they need to do for real.

POD RASHID (01:41:38.211)
All right, this is the last one. This is a little conspiracy cornerish.

I was looking at this on TikTok. It says, life sentences are karmic and it's a spell cast on you in the courthouse. like, there was this girl talking about like, when they give, you know how we m***********s get like five consecutive life sentences and you just be like, man, y'all overdoing it. No, they said they're casting a spell on them to where.

Even when they come back in their next life, you still have a life sentence, bro. How do you do it? How do you?

Marcus (01:42:19.265)
Alright, voodoo, bring me the voodoo doll. I'll take the voodoo doll over that. I don't even know what that's about.

POD RASHID (01:42:29.073)
Ain't that crazy, bro?

Marcus (01:42:30.425)
All right, let's get it then. Let's get it then since we conspiracy here. Saturn, black box. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Saturn, black box on the planet, right? You can zoom into it. You can look, Google, whatever. You can look through a telescope, whatever. Small black box on it, right? The same black box that we see, I don't know, in the Muslim.

POD RASHID (01:42:37.943)
You are.

Marcus (01:42:53.465)
Islamic tradition, which one's, yeah, Islamic tradition that they, where Mecca is and that they rotate around, something like that, you know what I'm saying? The same black box that when you graduate is on top of your head because graduate is what the god Saturn did to his kids. He gradually ate his kids so they would not take over and he would be in control of time. That's why the god Saturn is associated with Kronos chronology.

Marcus (01:43:30.019)
So when it comes to the black robe get up, the all black, the...

Judge of...

POD RASHID (01:43:46.873)
Now this is

Marcus (01:43:47.162)
It can be symbolic. can be symbolic. The frequencies are there, just in a different form of reality kind of thing. I just want you to think about.

POD RASHID (01:43:59.311)
And there's more to it. It's been a couple of years since I was on that. So I need a refresher, but no, you're onto it. So yeah. And they're saying basically, no, there's a reason. Because like you said, if it didn't matter, would just, you're going to be in jail till you die, Cool. All right. Not cool, but you know what mean? OK, right to the

Marcus (01:44:01.209)
There's more I was about to say as quickly as we can sum it up for consumption.

Marcus (01:44:28.547)
Yeah, whatever. That's the furthest you can go.

POD RASHID (01:44:29.201)
But I have life sentences with... Why does... So I'm like, that's interesting.

Marcus (01:44:47.737)

Marcus (01:45:17.197)
Gilbert Arena says Carl Anthony Towns is built like a b***h. Has the body of a W.

POD RASHID (01:45:20.886)
You

Marcus (01:45:26.477)
Has the, the bod, this is what, okay, so this is what I talk about. This is perfect. This we're just gonna round this out.

Gilbert Arenas says Karl Anthony Towns is built like a b***h, has the body of a WNBA player and has girl lips quote unquote.

Marcus (01:45:46.178)
Someone comments, this is why those zesty videos and tweets are more damaging than people realize because it progresses to this. See, this is what I'm talking about. It f***s up when we, when we damage the psyche of something, it f***s up our relation to it. We can not do that. We can't do, we gotta be stronger than that. We gotta be strong. Even when your evidence don't seem that you have to implant your wheel in that other.

So for example, white people hold us down historically, this and that. Well, your will has to be so strong that you implant a will that they didn't have in them into them, almost. That's how you defeat something. You can't defeat hate. You can't defeat hate with hate. You can't, you know, you're trying to put two negatives together. You have to have a positive with a negative and then overrides that negative for real. That's what it is and changes that negative to a positive. Same way Mr. Smith was doing.

Just the opposite way. Know what I'm saying? So, this something.

POD RASHID (01:46:50.513)
That's why I seen that picture early. I wish I would have saved it. But Kat put on his story on IG a picture of Gilbert Arenas like this. And then he had edited his fingernails painted. And I was like, what is this about? But let's say, well, sis, come back for that.

Marcus (01:47:17.783)
You want me to send this to B-Fines?

POD RASHID (01:47:22.935)

Marcus (01:47:35.787)

POD RASHID (01:47:45.773)

Marcus (01:47:50.935)
Come on, dog. Come on.

Marcus (01:47:57.751)
