He ain't get that man of the year for sure. Yeah, we're sure. Damien Wayne is one of my favorite comedians and I like to model my father Style kind of after him. Yeah, he psychologically tortured the kids more than like whooping they ass but fucking in a bed though.

Speaker 1:

Mama saved him. Don't know what about how. I just think it go Blow the horn loudest fucking way, good man.

Speaker 1:

So, tell me this man, what do you? What do you? What father style Do you use? It's a blend. I actually already have this. It's a blend between three Sikon fathers. Um, not that I think about it for, but I'm gonna just let me just go with my three and I'll give an honorable mention. It's the perfect blend between Uncle Phil Philip Banks Rest in peace James Avery um and Bernie Mac, because I don't give a fuck, but I do for sure but I do um.

Speaker 1:

I Remember when my first daughter was on the way. She'd be four soon, great. But yeah, it's like two months She'd be four. Like mother Um shout out to Nisi poop, yeah, she should be four. But I remember she was in ways like she gone, she gone soft. And you look, she don't watch. Use my mother-in-law to shout to mama rock, she gone soft. And you what? You gonna be good cuz you got the boys. Now you had a girl. Oh, yeah, she gonna change. Oh, I still don't give a fuck, I still. You can get it to, you can get it to. She begins smart with her mama. She's got this thing. Now you have to do some. Linus, go finish your sandwich.

Speaker 1:

So no, you ain't, you ain't take a moment. So let's keep in mind these are. You don't have to be that father to be in that row. Yeah, so Mine was definitely will be Michael J Kyle. Yeah, he's like he the point you run in the point of these teams, especially cuz he's such a big-ass fan of Jordan as well. Yeah, so, and LeBron Lebanon. Jane Fina, the Fina. So it would be Damien Wayne as Michael Kyle from my father and kids, my wife and kids, that I'm gonna make a show called my father and kids. It's gonna be mine. You heard it. You heard it here first, people from from chief Ali my father and kids show coming soon. All right, so it would. The next would be Damien Wayne, again, but as major, get the.

Speaker 1:

Winner fuck pain. Just one of those like I Love your boy and it's gonna be tough, cuz I'm gonna be on where I'm gonna be on your ass, like why don't rice and the paper plate and the glass of milk in the snow?

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

Fuck them kids, but hey, I love, I love them so much that is fuck them.

Speaker 1:

Hey, that makes perfect, sense to me, makes perfect like that sentence right there Did like I understand how some people go goddamn, that made so much sense because that's something that we live by here after mission to speak for it. Fuck them kids, especially if you take care them. That's the only way it work. That's the old, that's the key to get in. Yeah, you can't say fuck them kids and really like you don't do shit for oh, yeah. So usually fuck them kids is followed by Let me get my ass up and cook so they can get something on exactly. Give me a scenario of where the phrase or the Fucking mantra sometimes don't fuck them kids, comes into play. Give me, give me a real life scenario to where you go oh, fuck them. Give give me one, I'll give you a current. When people so listen in In our world. Today it is Friday and most Fridays it's. We wake up on a good note with a healthy level of fucked them kids, only because we made it to the end of the week. Friday is a is a universal date. It was both of. We made it is.

Speaker 1:

When we was at his open house and the teachers are showing, hey, yeah, he started at the scene and he Made some gains. Now he's at an A or you know, and he has some tests. He redid it, but he was able to kind of level his self up boom, boom, boom. On the academic side, I'm extremely proud, 100%. When it comes to the social side, I Was sitting back listening to the teachers in a gentle way, like hey, he's a little bit of a class clown.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he's a kidder, he's a jokester. Um, he can. His grades can be better if he actually focused a little bit more. Yeah, and in the brief moment of me hearing this Fuck them kids, it was this motherfucker doing good man. He kind of almost might be bored. Yeah, he might need to be challenged just a little bit more. For sure they didn't. Yeah, they've been eating that sometimes, so I'm okay with that that. Fuck them kids kicked in of like man. I want to hear that. Shit. This nigga passing me, but I but it still was it. I wanted, it still was a. Hey man, this is the teacher's room, this is their arena. Don't heck with the teachers. You have an arena yourself which is here at permission to speak freely.

So me having that moment with the teacher and I'm kind of just saying to him I'm at fuck that the kids moment. I felt good as a parent to be like, okay, he's doing good academically, but I gotta check myself because his personality is mine, yeah, it is mine, so hey.

Speaker 2:

When that long ago your ass was sitting in that second grade class Talking shit. Talking shit, done with my work, a little bit Fuckin' with you. You can't finish yours. No, you ain't done yet, bruh. No, that's wrong yeah.

Speaker 1:

It's clearly be you a dummy, you a dummy, dumb. And you had them clothes on yesterday. You had flame hot Cheeto stand in your pants, I could tell. So I'm having to just still realize myself like in my career I can't 100% be serious. Yeah, and I run a company man. So I'm in orientation, I'm interviewing people. I'm coming in asking goofy shit Like do you put the peanut butter on your bread first? Or the jelly, tell me. And he's like, oh yeah, it determines your future.

Speaker 1:

This nigga, this nigga this nigga choked the staff and roleplay Like we was giving like real scenarios on what things that may occur on a job. This nigga choked diamond rose.

Speaker 2:

Chick had it come.

Speaker 1:

She was doing good, she was not prepared for she was not prepared and anything can happen. Protect yourself at all times.

Speaker 2:

Protect yourself at all times Protect yourself.

Speaker 1:

So she broke the rule. So I get it. Man, I'm a comical person, I'm a comedian. Okay, I have to identify with that and it protects me for what I say. Hey, I'm a comic, hey he was leaving me alone.

Speaker 2:

That was a comedian. That's the shio right.

Speaker 1:

Hey, he was leaving me alone. I'm supposed to make shit funny, right, right too far Little bit. So I'm just getting to see him like, be himself, his personality. I don't wanna, I don't wanna knock that light out of him. It's not necessary, but it should be controlled and mannered. So me just expressing to him in front of the teachers like hey, man, this is their arena, allow them to do theirs. You got your place to do yours, right, you're not even right. All right, let's continue to keep it growing. Man, give them the space They've earned it. Man, do not disrupt me. Yes, dad, I got you. Dad, you write that. I gotta get that, gotta get that girl, yeah.

Speaker 1:

So I would like to end on that segment of fuck them kids brought to you by chief Ali, and lay low the most. Salute, salute. I don't wanna tap your little chair. What we trying to get to work. Blessings, yeah, bluh, shout out for the people. So, moving into the next segment of things, man, research and development. We like to call this our R&D segment. Tell me and speak freely, man, what have you researched about yourself that pushed you into a place that now you gotta develop? Oh, you damn near snatched the words like out my mouth sorter. I was in your notes, my bag no.

Speaker 1:

But it gets to a point just like on the business side of the thing, where it's like, well, if not meeting who, If not now, then when? Yeah, like that's become a theme Just in my own. It's nothing that I say to anybody or talking to anybody about, but it comes now to it and it's like, well, if I don't do this, then who? You know what I'm saying? Who should it fall off? Who can it fall on? Nobody, it's me. It just needs to be addressed, it needs to be taken care of. It gotta be handled. When it comes down to the tough conversations, when it comes down to the tough decisions, shit gotta be handled. I ran into somebody who I fired yesterday. It's not comfortable. You were at that place. Huh, yeah, I was. You were at that place huh.

Speaker 1:

Yes, it's not comfortable, but I knew that it was uncomfortable for her, so I had to make it. Hey, justin, you ain't gotta do that. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2:

Oh, hey, you saw me.

Speaker 1:

You fucking know who I am, you saw me, you know what I'm saying. But kind of tapping into that as well, like, hang on, I need to be the Almost like an authoritative figure, if you will. And we ain't talking about the kids, no more. But just on the aspect of, hey, I'm a leader Lead Period. So that's some research and development for your ass. That I've been kind of chatting, still working on it, like I ain't got it. I ain't got it. But the conversations with myself I talk to myself but I don't speak back. I ask the questions but I don't answer them out loud. That's when something's going on. I know you, we're gonna get you some help, but, uh, people, please help me out, please. But, um, but that's definitely something that's been going on with me and just sitting by myself and it's like I gotta take care of this, gotta address this. Let's go get it done, let's go get it done.

Speaker 1:

What about you, man? You got any research and development going on lately. Oh yeah, often man, often often man. So one of the um, the ones that has surfaced for me on the research and development is, um, family, and how much family is very important to me, how large of a family I would love to have, and just kind of, and what I developed to be able to sustain that and have that. But I also researched in myself of knowing when I do have these beautiful things that I want and I can obtain, uh, I wanna I had to, I wanna be able to speak about which the sacrifices that come inside to be able to keep it and maintain it, and how targets come on you when you are working towards those goals that you do obtain and you do achieve.

Speaker 1:

As you just mentioned, man, um, you sitting at leadership position and you had to make a leadership call and just on your day to day you've seen someone that you had that you cross paths with. Y'all Y'all. We were just passing through type of thing with each other. Now you see this person with no ties in his and it's fresh too. This didn't happen like a year ago. This is all your vibe, you like? Matter of fact, two weeks ago to the day Today, extremely awkward 13 days like you.

Speaker 1:

all right, it's like a breakup. I miss you. I miss you. We'll go on to that story another time.

Speaker 2:

Man man.

Speaker 1:

So I've had to re, I've had to In my research of myself, I had to understand what I would have, the sacrifice that comes with obtaining these things, maintaining these things in defendant. So freedom speakers man, I am a huge, huge family person. Okay, huge own family I'm huge on love.

Speaker 1:

Yeah man, I love the kids. I protect the kids. Chief, love the kids. Hey man, if your kids is at our house and one kid get ass whooping, by right, just unanimously fair they all gonna get ass whooping. I don't like that rule. It's a team effort. If they at our house and we and we buy a bike for one, they all get a bike. I like that rule. It's unanimous. I like that rule, it's unanimous. Y'all a team, so it's a team effort. You gotta hold the next man to you accountable.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

You know what I'm saying? It's one of those like who gonna get the ass whooping first. Whoever didn't deserve it gonna get to go last because he tired now.

Speaker 2:

I remember he might not get the ass whooping.

Speaker 1:

This is so crazy man, I gotta share this story. It's kind of a two-in-one sort of story. Man, when I was a kid, my brother and my sister and I went to a babysitter, miss Nisha. We on the 114th, miss Nisha on like 112, 111.

Speaker 1:

Coming up, man, I did not like eating my vegetables. You know what I'm saying. Typical kid Didn't not like eating my vegetables. Man, especially spinach. To this day I eat just about every vegetable. Now Spinach I still can't get with cooked spinach. Let me be clear, because I'll fuck with some raw spinach and the salad. My wife puts the shit in the soup that she making. It's kind of in there mixed in with the rest of the good shit. I cannot just pop hot as shit. I can't do it. I have yet to meet anybody who made some good. I'm gonna do spinach. Good as fuck has not happened. I fucking love greens. I fucking love green beans. Broccoli is my favorite vegetable. Carrots I do some succotage. Mixed that shit together, niggapese, all the shit I don't really get into. Like motherfucking. What's that shit called? Fucking Brussels sprouts? Ocra my grandma used to do ocra. I didn't even fuck with that shit. She get all slimy and you cook it too long.

Speaker 2:

I do some fried.

Speaker 1:

That'sparagus. You gotta cook it, right. Yeah, I do a spare. I fuck with a spare. You know what I'm saying, but not so, man. She left me and a baby in the kitchen for a second. I take my plate of spinach and I put that shit between the refrigerator and the couch, sat back down like this I ate it, I ate it, I ate it. This is how I ate it, though Y'all like, a week later, that shit starts stinking like a. That shit starts stinking like a motherfucking man. She pulled her refrigerator out. Who put this spinach Bitter refrigerator?

Speaker 1:

I've always been an accountable, even from a kid. You know what I'm saying. Mommy coming to house, Y'all had company in here. My sister, no, y'all had company in here. My brother no, mom, y'all had people in my house, yeah, but it's never been like a. See, now, that proved my point. Keep your pace and do it. Because one didn't stick to the rule. Everybody gotta get asked for it, and we did, because it wasn't like a me snitching on them thing. It was like yeah, mom, we did, we was us. You know what I'm saying. Zayn Juice was here too. My friends were here.

Speaker 2:

You'd have made everybody get asked for it, we all in here.

Speaker 1:

But I was always kind of accountable like that. So when Ms Nisha asked me who put the spinach in the refrigerator, it's kind of like Me. You know what I'm saying. It was me. You know, she chest ties me with her before and I don't know if my mom assigned this part of the paperwork, but she whooped us, hey, mama.

Speaker 2:

Nisha, you gotta say something about that now she fucking whooped us.

Speaker 1:

She fucking whooped us. And what's crazy is man? You get to a point and man, she was my babysitter from kindergarten to Not like first to third grade, some shit like that. And I get to the point in my childhood to where it's almost like these whoopings don't hurt, but I know you want me to cry, you know what I'm saying. So they start whooping your ass with some effort now.

Speaker 2:

It had to get some shit.

Speaker 1:

It's kind of like you used to be like put your pants down. Now it's like put your pants down and lift the shirt up. So it's like pull your drawers down, bend over the edge of the couch.

Speaker 2:

Don't look at me.

Speaker 1:

It's like Shit, like that man. So she had us, like I won't say, lined up in the room, but I happened to come up when the ass whooping circus was going on. She had like six kids and then come in, you two go on back Next and you'll come back and get like three sets of three. You're like nine lashes.

Speaker 1:

That's how I was having to come up the stairs while the ass whooping rink is happening and she oh yeah, you two. I'm like fuck, I should have stayed downstairs. Shit, she forgot about me in this penance incident three fucking days ago. You know, I come up there. She Look at me. I'm like, yeah, you don't say it, but like she's, my Mama needs you guys. You got 24 hours to respond.

Speaker 2:

It went bad I wouldn't dare say.

Speaker 1:

it was on the lines of like people should not like that and you guys would. You know, we from a time where it's like it takes a village, you know what I mean. I gotta say I didn't get like. My older brother was the one who got the ass whooping by the time she was tired of whooping by the time she got done with his ass. You know what I'm saying, out of breath and shit.

Speaker 2:

Right on, just don't do it like this, but it is one whooping that I remember to this day.

Speaker 1:

I don't know what the fuck I did. Somebody lied on me. I never got an answer for that. I never got a notice in the mail. This is what that whooping was for. You know what I'm saying. I never got the. I know this is gonna hurt you, but it's gonna hurt me more. I didn't get it, but I was in the shower and to this day, when I'm in the shower, I'm locking the door. Now it ain't necessary to keep nobody out. It's a muscle somehow in my mind, kind of like hey, man, lock the door, cause my mama came in when I'm in the shower, start whipping my ass with a switch. I'm wet, so that switch.

Speaker 2:

You sound like the intro of Django.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, man, so the you know what I'm saying, the velocity of these whips to multiply by at least two and a half. That switch then turned into a goddamn mega fire flames and shit. My mama hair fucking spiked up back, yeah, shot. Ahhhh, I'm soaking wet in the fucking shower and I never got an explanation for that whooping. I don't know what the fuck it was for. I didn't never got. I never got too many whoopings coming up, but that one, my she probably remember this shit, but I do, goddamn it. Okay, and you got 24 hours, respectfully, mama Cause I don't wanna, you know, I don't wanna whooping either. Christmas coming up, my, get your shit together. So while I say this, man, as I'm thinking about it, I'm gonna wrap it up first on the R&D, then I'm gonna go into the whooping. Yeah, family is a motherfucker. First, off.

Speaker 1:

That's the defending your family. So in my R&D with that, I got a whooping as a kid and I got a lot of whoopings, bro, I'm like over them, but it was a lot of them. I'm like, no, I don't deserve this. And a few of them I'm like it's fair. It's fair, like it's this one's fair. But as a kid I would be the one who generally would get the ass whooping. For, like the team, it'd be like, hey, man, he's strong enough for all of us. That's kind of how it was. It was like, oh, this is gonna make a man out of you, me beating your ass cause I'm mad at my boss. Oh man, yeah, that's, that's so. That ain't helping. You know what I'm saying. But one of those, um me, I'm not like.

Speaker 1:

I've gotten ass whoopings as a kid that I'm like, oh, this ain't deserve this, I ain't earned this. I also gotten whoopings and chest ties on some things that I did and I also just that gray area then knew I had one coming, yeah, and it was just like, probably so motherfucking, pissed, can't even do nothing, put that bitch in reserve.

But definitely definitely be Coaching, bro. You know, I mean coach them just on the relationship shit, and they, you know they got a spot together. Now you know they moved in yet but they got it. So I like to talk about that. Yeah, that's gonna shagging up. Shagging up, I would let's, let's make sure we note that. Producer, please note that we're gonna call it a segment car Shagging up, and y'all know what shagging up is. If you don't go ask your grandma, go act. Yep, it's a Planned. House is another another term. The next generation generation had, and then I don't know what they call it now, if they moving in together, you know what, I know what us, we was. It was calling it, we was playing house plan.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

I know, behind a cow and it ain't free. Wherever he was saying like Ain't got no milk in them.

Speaker 2:

So why buy a cow when you can get the milk free? There you go.

Speaker 1:

I don't know where you get milk for Freddy's.

Speaker 2:

Go ahead. Well, leave it to your dough. There is one place.

Speaker 1:

So in this segment of shagging up, as it's coming to me now, is pros and cons, people to shagging up, living with each other, and I just give my my experience. I don't. That's the only story I can tell, that's the only one I know the best. All right, so for me, young, I want some shagging up. I've learned a lot of still about myself being outside of my mother's home or my parents home, kind of equivalent to if you go to college and you in the dorm room with somebody that you don't know. Yeah, okay, so shagging up a little bit, we just gonna. I'm gonna keep it vague, but I'm gonna give a lot of examples to make a comparative. All right, so I've learned how to manage bills, cook, clean, wash like, exercise, these domestic things that I was taught at home already In the same like a different domestic capacity, but the same skill. Okay, as you would be in college. You most people don't know how to cook is why they top rum in that shit. I'm a mother, you know I'm saying they don't got the resources or whatever it is. They're still on the tight budget when you moving out on your own, still on the tight budget, you get to learn a lot about the people around you, the people you're trying to connect with, and sometimes you learn to be like, okay, we passing through this. Is we just? We learned enough. We've taken on these courses with each other, mastered what we needed to master, and we graduate on to our careers, now what we really want to settle into.

Speaker 1:

So for me, I Learned a ton. I learned a ton in those shagging up days. I Promote for you to still live on your own in some capacity. Yeah, even if it's with a roommate, if it's with a potential spouse, even if it's on your own. But I know, financially sometime it is, it is difficult. So shout out. That's normally the nucleus of why people shag up because it's affordable. You know I'm saying it's affordable, but I learned so much shacking up or playing house about how to steal, prepare myself for when I did step into the husband role, the man role, that I know how to lead and handle these things because I did get out here early and do it. I did have that exercise of, oh, I can handle this, I can do this, or this is what this feel like. Okay, oh, damn, I can see what my mom and it was it cut these lights to fuck off. Put on some thick pajamas and cut the heat down.

Speaker 1:

It's that he would us. They kick out my fucking ass. Oh, in the, in this segment of shacking up man, I like to give this information why are you out here and you look into Survive? Because you gonna start off in that phase. People, everyone starts, almost people. I don't want to group everyone into a bunch and I get attacked later. Oh, my god, okay, it's the, it's the nigga, that's more like everybody. They got to speak up always. So. So, when you do step into those roles, you're gonna start.

Speaker 1:

Most of us are gonna start off in a position where you are surviving. This is this hunting phase you have. You are seeking, you are going out into the world Looking for things. You're exploring, your discovering, you're gonna have that. That's, that is a necessary part of your 20s. Okay, man, this is my experience. You're gonna need these things. You're gonna need to exercise yourself. You're gonna need to, as one point time they used to say so.

Speaker 1:

Your royal oats Not as an, always just mean you are here fucking, but it does mean exercise. You skill there, exercise, celebrating. We'll say that. Remember that. So celebrate, exercise, celebrating as you taper into your 30s and you mature. You kind of get tired over the last three, seven, maybe nine years doing repetitive things and really not getting a taste of certain things, but maybe Not knowing how to handle it, fumbling it, whatever the case may be. But you get you kind of find yourself at a place where you are done Exploring externally out into the world, and then you find yourself in your 30s Primarily. That's when it hit, sometimes a little earlier for others, but I know for me it really hit in my early 30s that now I'm starting to Search and explore and discover Internally, and internal is Way more vast Than external.

Speaker 2:

Okay, he's way more vast, way more deep, way more you can harbor so much inside.

Speaker 1:

Externally, you got a cap. Room ain't big enough, house ain't big enough, gotta get a storage place for your shit. But you just put that shit you hold known to, but it's still got a cap. Internally, virginia, alien, guillian, gigabyte, terabyte, the hard drive you can harbor so fucking much. But you start to explore yourself. You start to find what you feel that you need. You start to find what fuck with, what pumps you with, what drives you where we're most of us in our 30s, now that you get to see and keep in mind we're married men, so we're. I'm living by curious through most people that are around me who are Expressive to me about what's out there, what they're doing. And hey, man, I want you in your wife to stay together because it look good.

Speaker 2:

It is good you look happy being there for that woman.

Speaker 1:

I'm kids handling what you do. I couldn't do it. I was smoking crack with your daddy back in the day. I ain't over. You knew that, but I'm just feel comfortable telling you nigga Testimony?

Speaker 1:

yeah, but one of those of like a lay a burn down, yeah, a burn down at the same time, while bigging you up about I couldn't do it, you stronger than me. I turn the drugs. It was easier route and I commend you, my nigga, cuz it couldn't be me. I love you though, and normally that be my granddad, but nigga, stay for that woman, stay from kid, stay for you.

Speaker 2:

What you would say there. I'm proud of you.

Speaker 1:

What I'm proud of you, hey man. They made me believe a man in me to be a father, a man in me to be a chief, hey man. They meant to do this, but you doing them all and you're running laps around the boy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I love you, I'm gonna call you back, but these I Needed. I would need that, yeah. So I would say this of to in my my segment, in my little rant on Shacken up In your 30s is really when that light kickoff and you mature and most people start following on one accord. But for men we have it's a. It's a mental value and a it's a mental value we have to have more than just the Materials, because we get to see a lot of times those come and go, yeah, those come and go, but my knowledge that I've gained to not let this continuously happen comes.

Speaker 1:

My problem-solving skills kick up, being able to critically think you know I'm saying being able to handle pressure, yeah, these are to be able to Mission complete every time a task is is had, regardless of how much time normally is taken, because, remember, some of these things that are freshly happening I ain't never experienced. Let me, let me, let me red, let this register to me. So I say that to you people when you are in this mature phase in your 30s and you are looking internally, take your time, do not rush because you seem to be on one accord or everybody itching to get somebody, because 40 is kicking close and normally if you, it's saying if you not, what you're gonna be by either the 30 or 40, that's what you're gonna possibly be for the rest of your life. Yeah, don't push yourself into something or with somebody just to have somebody.

Speaker 1:

I really tell people Slow down, even for our kids, like man, slow down, don't get to know the person for real, like get to know the person for real. All right, so as the end of my rant, I'm shacking up, but I will segue into this For For relationships, for marriages, remember all of these skills are transferable. When we talked to our son at that place now where he dating girls or not dating because you know we're near dating, dating is like Shit, orchestrated actual court. He just likes somebody for four days.

Speaker 1:

That's kind of how that shit, but Giving him game to understand things and to learn how to bounce back through things. And I give, I want to be able to give him an example, as I talked to her and talk to him just about our Relationship, of getting to see our kids see us resolve differences, to know in the household. That's how Issues should happen. I mean, that's how things should be happened. Yeah, hey, if we do have Some issues of certain things that are Kid-friendly because I'm a firm fucking believer of staying a fucking child place, this is not for you as a goddamn child, this grown-up shit, I don't kick it. A party with kids, this ain't for you. You will get there eventually, we'll even slow down.

Speaker 1:

Don't be Bobby Valentino, god dammit, I ain't trying to get to know you like that, but I say that to him. But you know, I say that to him to exercise Certain things in relationship that we may not have seen growing up in our household. We may have heard or seen our parents bigger fight, have issues with their spouse, but we may have never seen them actually resolve it in front of each other, say I'm sorry, hug, kiss it out. Yeah, we we never seen it. We may have seen Turned into substances, turn it to something else or somebody else. I remember seeing something recently in the last couple of weeks that said it can be good to argue in front of your children as long as they're they see the end result.

Speaker 2:

You know I'm saying yeah, yeah, I can't, which I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I don't know where I stand with that. It's kind of like Bitch you will. I'm seeing all laughing, you know, baby. Yeah, I'm sorry, I apologize. You know what I mean. Like, I do think seeing that is important for seeing the, the top side of it, the arguing. I'm gonna let that stand. Somebody else let me know so I get my stand on that man. I actually like that phrase. I still feel like even as an adult where we are mature, like grown-ups, I'm classy as fuck. So I'll say that even in my arguments I'm very tactical. I don't gotta yell. I don't gotta yell, but I don't come to that space to argue. I don't even come into that space now to Be bitching and hoeing and all that. I use that shit for show. I do that shit for. You know, just one of those like I I don't even like to identify will be being like a hood person or neighbor. I came from the inner city, hood nigga, but it's like that is me. So my vernacular sometimes slip out is like Filler.

Speaker 1:

But I digress on that. But I do agree with the the children get a chance to see the parents communicate with each other and get this ex see how you, your mannerisms are, because when we have differences now I'm not at a place where we are arguing it doesn't get there, and if it does, it's like we both didn't lost control. We too deep into marriage, we too deep in our relationship to the conversation. Gotta go to arguing, yeah, it's like, no, no, and I and I and I know I lead, bro, I lead, I lead heavily and I step into it rightfully. And, baby, you know I'm a leader, you a leader, but I'm leading you first, and that's a shout out to come, and that's a common line. That's not me, but I do agree with that of like we a team, but I'm in charge though, like it's my, I'm Captain For us though, but it's us, it is us, it is us, it is us, it is us.

Speaker 2:

It is us it is us and. I have to.

Speaker 1:

And I have to approach it that way because sometimes we, when you do have to even address somebody that you love with an uncomfortable, it can make things uncomfortable, but it had you gotta have no more comfortable conversations to be able to have a comfortable relationship. Yeah, like they are. Yeah, I think that a thousand percent. So our necessary Mm-hmm. So I'm 100% believing um, not 100%, but I believe in having the children around if you are having some differences, and it's especially if it's a minute, if it's like hey they need to do this or do that, or hey, I need you to do this.

Speaker 1:

You didn't handle that. No, I'm sorry, you know. Just you know some, some, some mediocre, but not Some grown up, no, they time and play. They ain't there for that, but just the parents are around when the kids are having some things, especially when the kids are involved Heavily, when they're involved. Hey, did you tell your dad I said this and you did that and it causes for y'all to have Some.

Speaker 2:

Hey, did you, hey, baby I thought we discussed.

Speaker 1:

They can't have you know this for this or we went post to do that.

Speaker 2:

Well, he said, you said baby, maybe I'm gonna check you up. You know, I said not.

Speaker 1:

I'm thinking about it. I know exactly what you mean in one of those like hey, they need to be involved and held accountable and Get to see the Resolve the residents. You know the situation be resolved, so I do. I do feel like it has some pros and it can have some cons, but I do feel like it's a different take on the norm of Get the fuck out of here.

Speaker 1:

You can't see this and and normally I still believe in that on heavy shit, I still believe it out on heavy shit, but on the kid appropriate things, oh yeah, let's, let's get this resolved, let's. Do you learn to see apologies and my dad apologizes to my mom?

Speaker 2:

my mom apologize to my dad.

Speaker 1:

That's important to say. But like, which is the biggest take of it all? You know I'm saying like we can get to. We can have a conversation and discussion and get to a place where we're not arguing and yelling that we need to apologize for other shit, being on with the top of what was doing. You know saying we're arguing because something happened, but we're now we're we're mad just from us arguing what we said during our arguments and now we got that out the way.

Speaker 1:

This, what happened, this, how you made me feel right, which happens to me and a lot. You know what I mean. We'll go to bring up a situation that we're Comfortable with or something that we need to address, and then you know a lot of times the way it comes off or the way it's said. That then becomes the top of the conversation and not actually what the fuck we wanted to discuss in the first place. You know that's a skill, yeah, that's a skill to Avoid or to deflect, to micro, manage the conversation of. I'm trying to express, I'm trying to be expressive and I like the way you talking to me. I don't like your tone or taking one word out of the entire sentence. Oh, so now I'm not. You don't feel. This is the.

Speaker 1:

So I don't care, you saying I don't care, you know what yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like your actions are saying you don't care or Then it turns into Use, a whole, so then it turns into a whole Different avenue of something as a deflection and derailment of what the initial, what your initial thing is, and it's like you made it about yourself, yeah, many about you, and it's not necessary because he probably want to feel what was coming up and when we get done Okay, we got past arguing part, I love you. Sorry, hold up, I didn't get the fucking say I really wanted to say, and then it's a no, that's important, man, that's definitely important how they, it's important to know how to navigate. You know those type of instances when they come about, you know. So it's something, man. I forgot what I wanted to ask you. But moving forward, man, had you heard about what's, what's been going on up in Michigan football? No, no, man, bring me up to speed up.

Speaker 2:

So apparently.

Speaker 1:

There's been some, some signs stealing, some signal stealing, and I know that sounds. What the fuck is the problem? You know my big steel signs. All the time I've been trying to do that shit at home Allegedly Michigan, michigan coaches, staff fucking Interns have been future scouting Future, and that's the illegal part. That's the rule break, right, there has been future scouting future opponents To then get a leg up when they actually Play them.

Speaker 1:

So a kin, so like film. They been like watching film, not not watching film. Watching film is totally fine, watching film is totally fine. What they would do is hey, we played Penn State in a few weeks go to their game and record their signal caller and then Bring it back and we were able to study it and know what Means when they caught. So when we're playing them, we know the fucking play you, you on, you on you. You hit a ask Matt, and but yeah, we know that, we know that fucking play. Now, that sort of thing can happen live in the game. However, you're not gonna. You don't have time to be studying somebody's signals five was on the time while in the fucking game but you have an opportunity to get prepared in that way before the game. That gives you quite the leg up on the competition.

Speaker 1:

Apparently, this has been going on for the last last couple seasons, including this season, and this is what. Who did they have the who do them? Make sure I get this with the question right. Yeah, what information or proof did they have that Michigan was doing this and who brought it to the attention? Who's like the lead investment? There have been Venmo transactions. I make sure I say allegedly more than I need to. There have been Venmo transactions because the person they had doing this makes about fifty five thousand dollars a year. You know how much it costs to sit on the fucking 40 yard line at these, these college games. Probably his salary, these have you know like it get up there. Like I remember looking for a nosebleed Ohio State Michigan game For me, you and the boys, this is gonna be about two thousand dollars. I'm talking nosebleed, right, $500. Nosebleed Saturday after Thanksgiving. Rather it was Ann Arbor or Columbus, expensive as a bitch. But they have been Venmo transactions. Like, apparently there was there was a guy spying on Ohio State and Georgia in last years was of the all-state sugar bowl. There's a payment to horse pay for the tickets. I'll give you this one, ohio State, penn State. Just last, a couple weeks ago, there were two tickets purchased under the name Connor stallions is the name of the guy who's apparently the sign stealer. Nobody showed up because by the end the funk had already hit the fan. The funk had already hit the fan, you know. Nobody showed up. Nobody showed up.

Speaker 1:

There is allegedly video of the sign stealer at the central Michigan game with some glasses and apparently a toupee. Cuz he's bald, look just like this motherfucker, and Central Michigan cannot verify who the fuck that is on. They stay With all this AI. No, not at this real video. However, they did go to AI match his actual face With who is on the. Who was on the sideline and they sent it through AI. Ai gave it a 99 percent match. Maybe, maybe, like that's him because he's doing the toupee and, like some, some sunglass. It's a nighttime game. You know shades and nobody else got fucking shades. You know saying these great lights.

Speaker 1:

They'll be out. Could you know that be our does get involved and shit like this NC double-a, but it's a huge rule break. Man, michigan's in trouble and you know, and allegedly they've been cheating these last couple years which, ironically, last couple years they've been good and that's horrible to me, right? Mm-hmm, oh, jimmy, jimmy boy was he? Because I don't want to say kicked out, I don't know what. I don't remember that something happened.

Speaker 1:

man, he was in, he was in NFL, but uh, whatever the Cape land lands at that mission did land at that mission, great fucking job, steel, great pay like they still make coaches.

Speaker 2:

They make good money.

Speaker 1:

You know, I'm saying just coming to. You know the different organization. But, um, we wish Jimmy the best. I wish Not the team. I'm not like a kill miss.

Speaker 1:

you know my thing, I don't wish Jimmy the best, I do wish the kids that that organization, at least those who were involved. I wish the kids who they put at risk for elimination, for forfeit wins, for Having to, you know, sit out of certain ball games. I do wish, I do wish them the best. You know their quarterback, jj. It's having a Great year this year and it's possible that it may all be for not because of Something I don't believe. Any player has knowledge of this. Not one player on that team has knowledge that there's been some science stealing going on. You look at the very first play From Ohio State, michigan, last season. I'm talking very first offensive play. Before CJ Stroud could even give the team the play to relate, relay the signal. Michigan's already calling a defense. They're pointing to going like this. It's like how they matching it up. They may they so it's something going on.

Speaker 1:

There's a picture of Colin kind of stallions who supposed to be an intern. Every time Mr Get on the offense, he's right by the offensive coordinator. Every time there's on defense he's about a defensive coordinator with a laminated sheet of Of signs that they made these ain't coaching plays of sign like there's a lot of proof. And you know the NCAA slash FBI. They gonna come knock on your door till they got proof anyway. Yeah, yeah, they just looking to see how much you gonna cooperate. And that's what's going on, man. So it's not looking good. I'm getting new information on the daily, but it's it's.

Speaker 1:

It's something funky going on up there in Michigan, man, and you know coaches are upset about it. Regardless of what they say in the press, they upset about it. There was a poll taken from 50 coaches in the NCAA and Either 45 or 46 out of 50 those coaches rated this a five out of five on the scale of seriousness. You know like this is serious. Yeah, your peers are saying, yeah, it's serious, you'll talk. You'll talk to a Michigan fan, they've got it. Nothing. The leaders loopholes is. You know, it's not illegal. It happens all the time. Yeah, happens all the time. But future, scouting a team and having an opportunity to Study, study, study their signs. Yeah, that's a leg up on the competition. You may have a few of they signs down pat by halftime, but y'all got the whole fucking pretty much the playbook sitting right in front of you.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, allegedly Ohio State gave TCU coaches the heads up and warned them warned TCU last season about Michigan stealing signs. You know what they did? They changed their signal caller. They changed their signal cuz the TCU see, ohio State called us and said hey, be careful. In their mind, your house, facing the playoff to TCU, could have very much Went on the playoff, ohio State for the championship. So they had. They made dummy signals. Hmm, and guess what happened? Got caught up. What Michigan lost? They beat them. They fucking beat them.

Speaker 1:

You know I'm probably the furthest thing from a Michigan fan. I know we talk about them from time to time, man, but I, you know, I think this shit is interesting, man. I want to see how this turns out. Ohio State had the four-fifth wins over over tattoos and merchandise and shit back in 2011, 2012, hmm, now you talking about something cost us a championship, we're sure, you know, sure. So what is gonna happen with what's gonna happen with this situation? I just want to see, I just want to see. So, people, you have it there. We gonna see what's gonna happen at Michigan. We hope you not the best, because it seems like this is one of them. Niggard, everybody got got to get it now.

Speaker 2:

Oh, shit, hold, tight, hold, tight Hold tight.

Speaker 1:

What is the big ticket right here? So last year Michigan Michigan apparently did not want to play Tennessee in the playoffs because they go too fast, they pace is too fast, they call it, plays quick, they get it out, so they don't have time Allegedly, allegedly, allegedly to steal their signals. Guess what they did. What Guess what Michigan allegedly did? They gave South Carolina their signals. So South Carolina's involved in this shit too. South Carolina beat Tennessee and knocked Tennessee out of the playoff race. Last year Hinden Hooker got injured in that game, quarterback for Tennessee and his draft stock took a huge hit. So this go just with that goes deep, because now let some shit about that come out.

Speaker 1:

Michigan gave South Carolina, tennessee's signals and ultimately they beat them and Hinden Hooker got injured. Because if you, if I know the play, oh, I can fucking go off on y'all ass. Yeah, yeah, I'm about to smack this nigga. He bought to be right here. I'm a smack the fuck out of yeah, yeah, yeah, it's like almost like some targeted yeah, yeah. So, man, what I like to do is, man, when we do talk about the controversy that things that's in sportsman, I like to label this, this segment oh, I just had it in my head but this segment of I don't know we gonna come up with a good name.

Speaker 2:

I just had it.

Speaker 1:

Had a brain for people my bad but, I, Didn't realize, or just even think right now of how deep that it can get, of them targeting them, setting up. That's the name of the segment I wanted to have there go corrupt coaches, because you guys. So one of the things that I wanted to mention about I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I.
