Welcome to the Heavyweight Podcast.
Speaker 2:The message behind saying the title of the Heavyweight Podcast is to be able to say that we can weigh in on some heavy shit. What we're talking about is important from every aspect of it. It's a heavy weight. It's not just about physical weight, but the weight of things that can weigh our minds. So I think it's dope that we can have this conversation.
Speaker 3:That's good, damn, I'm fucking up all over. I'm tired. My bad y'all.
Speaker 2:I'm tired. What's good? This is episode 214 of the heavyweight podcast. I'm your anti-social host Stutter McFly back again with these two guys. Go ahead and state your name for the beautiful people out here tired of fucking up positivity.
Speaker 1:So you're fucking up positivity. That's angry then.
Speaker 3:I'm trying to be positive, but I'm so tired I keep fucking up, oh shit, I feel that.
Speaker 1:I'm just Mr Wendell, kevin, kevin Mr Wendell.
Speaker 2:How are your weeks Long Pause?
Speaker 1:Yeah, kevin. Mr Wendell, how are your weeks Long Pause? Yeah, that's a pause for sure. Mine was good. Mine was good, nice and relaxing for two weeks and then back to the bullshit at work. So, absolute bullshit.
Speaker 3:Why.
Speaker 2:Because it's like you heard it twice you heard it twice and it was consistent and yours is different yeah, I had to switch it up cause he went this nigga's DJ request don't nobody tell him what to play ah shit, I'm mad about that, my hunting round trip was funny too it's there my week was, uh, it started off just rehearsing and like I felt bad, cause like I would be talking to Mo throughout the week and I was like at some point I was like I have to get off the phone to rehearse, because I had it in mind to make sure that I rehearsed at least a certain amount per day, in small increments because it would make it easier to remember as the week got on. So and I remember it was one time, it was one part I said you were starting to talk and I was like I was going gonna get off the phone and you were like, all right, man, I was like, but what were you gonna? And you hung up.
Speaker 3:I was like, god damn, I feel bad, like I don't feel bad um, but yeah, uh like I probably couldn't remember what I was gonna say uh.
Speaker 2:and then the tail end of the week, I uh saw the scale and it was at the smallest that I've been in a long time and went to the gym and some random nigga asked me to play a game of 21. And he proceeded to get blown out by it. It was 21 to 4 when the game was over.
Speaker 1:I'm going to pause that for you.
Speaker 2:Pause. Yeah, I didn't say I blew a back out, I just said you said you blew him out.
Speaker 1:He proceeded to get blown out. I didn't say I blew a back out, I just said you said you blew him out. He proceeded to get blown out. I'm like ah, I'm going to pause it for you, All right bugger Pause.
Speaker 2:I'm tired, but yeah, it was 21 to 4, and I remember he said man, you whooped my ass. I said I do this. Is that a pause?
Speaker 3:Sure, yeah, that's okay this is I got. I'm tired. I'm sorry people, I'm lying. Well, you want to talk?
Speaker 2:about what you was rehearsing oh, I had a show last night and, um, it started off cool. I did an awesome set, that's what matters. I didn't fit to finish my set. I did an awesome set, that's what matters. I didn't fit to finish my set, but.
Speaker 1:I did an awesome set.
Speaker 2:And it was the best that I had felt in a long time and I, honestly, could have kept rapping for like two hours, but it was. You know, it was a much-needed lesson in realizing that protecting energy and realizing that denying people access to me, because when I was performing I thought to myself nigga, people need to pay for this kind of show. And so I decided I've retired from doing free shows. If I ever do a show again, I'm getting paid for it and I'm denying a lot of people access to me. From this point moving forward Sucks that. I had to realize that at 40. But Dirty Birdie said some real shit when he was up here and I can relate nigga, you should never have access to me. And I was like, when he said that, I felt that so yeah, other than that, I'm about to be 40 on Thursday and um.
Speaker 2:I got to see some people that I, that I really hold dear to my heart, and chop it up with them. And and I, yeah, man, and my hair looks luxurious and um you see my hair bitch.
Speaker 3:What movie is that?
Speaker 2:it was on point, you know so that's Cat Williams. So it's just, it's positivity, it's just, I always see the silver lining in things and even with hiccups, nigga, I keep pushing forward.
Speaker 3:So I'm going to say this publicly nigga, I caught the freestyle which part? You know what part? Last night. When, which part, you know what part? Last night, when you freestyled, I said, nigga, they ain't the line. But okay, which song? The second song, you did.
Speaker 2:Alone.
Speaker 3:No, not Alone Self-worth. Yeah, I always freestyle at the end of it. Okay, I do that.
Speaker 2:All right, it's kind of like it's a, it's a like a ongoing thing, and I always try to see who's paying attention, but I do that at the end on purpose I think that's not the line.
Speaker 3:What's up?
Speaker 2:that's what we're doing yeah, okay, I'll probably stand by that, if you, if you ever see me performing that song, I I never finish it the same way, which makes it special to me.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'll be deep dicking, but it's kind of like a gym. If you pay attention to it, then you know hey, this is something different every time. So, yeah, other than that, about to be 40, oh, another thing. Uh, I guess ava tried to stay up and wait for me because she was like this is a big deal for my dad, so she wanted to stay up, but she, when I got home, she was out cold but she tried to stay up as long as she could.
Speaker 3:That's what's up. Yeah, my daughter just asked for food, damn.
Speaker 1:I'm afraid I did have that old man moment that pissed me off with them little ass kids in the bathroom telling me if I was a dad on the fucking player on a football team. I was like nigga, fuck you.
Speaker 3:I mean it could have been possible.
Speaker 1:I know I thought about it too and I was like, fuck yeah, I could yeah it might be possible.
Speaker 3:You said you had some scares out there not up there, hell nah, you never know.
Speaker 2:I mean you did say there was someone from anyway. I mean they could have moved, they wouldn't move there all right, uh, I guess we'll get into some shenanigans, but before we do we always have like rapid fire shit. So since today I'm gonna say it's birthday themed um, fuck it. So I'm gonna have you guys tell you tell their wildest birthday story and the weirdest gift they ever got oh, okay, birthday I did some things, I guess, uh wildest.
Speaker 1:I don't know which one, it would be 21st or 30th, 30th, I think that was the jumping off the stratosphere crazy nigga that shit was funny. But 21 was kinda dope cause we went to Havasu with no boat and just smoked like 2 ounces of weed in the weekend that sounds like the premise to a movie I've watched.
Speaker 1:He was turnt up one nigga went to jail cause he swam. He got arrested and taken away for a little bit. That sounds like the premise to a movie I've watched. He was turned out. One nigga went to jail because he swam or not jail. He got arrested and taken away for a little bit. He was detained because he swam across the channel.
Speaker 3:I was like he can't do that.
Speaker 1:Weirdest gift you said weirdest, right, yeah, weirdest, I don't know Damn. Can I tell somebody else's gift? Sure, because the weirdest one I ever heard was uh, uh, this. He broke up with her immediately after this gift. She gave him a box of chocolates, but it wasn't chocolate, it was her shit like little. She made him little balls. They were no longer together after that. I need the backstory. I don't know what the backstory was. He was like I don't know why she gave this to me, like if she thinks this is funny or like that's disturbing, like he was just like confused as fuck like that's disturbing.
Speaker 2:She took the time to make them balls, yeah, so she touched her own shit she was just like.
Speaker 1:We were all like oh, I didn't, I never saw that coming. I never saw that coming. Wow, she was so cool, that's crazy.
Speaker 3:No longer is that's crazy. She should have been committed. Fuck. She might be a nurse now.
Speaker 2:People never cease to fucking amaze me with the crazy shit that they're going to do in this world how does that make you feel she's either a nurse or a teacher?
Speaker 3:I mean, if she's a CNA, it makes sense um shit, literally fuck I don't have any crazy birthday stories. I haven't done anything crazy um Woo shit Literally Fuck. I don't have any crazy birthday stories I haven't done anything crazy. I guess the craziest was my 36th, apparently, when I was trying to fight everybody, I was drunk. Oh yeah, I was there. My best birthday was when my wife took me to Langer Tag. I was fucking them, kids up.
Speaker 2:So you were Barney Stinson. Yeah, it's pretty fun, the Laser Tag or fucking the kids up, both Positivity, huh. That's probably why it is Right. Okay, that's peace.
Speaker 3:I always used to get weird gifts from my mother-in-law. I never understood. I was like she would. It's not weird as far as like she would buy me like random clothes items that she thought I would like, but I never liked none of them. So I was like, oh, thank you, and just put them in the closet and just.
Speaker 2:Never wear them.
Speaker 3:Yeah, she ever asked about it after Like so did you ever? No, no, she probably didn't want you to.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I appreciate it. Thank you, you're right. Where is she Like? Oh, that's nice, where do you get that from you?
Speaker 1:Thanks.
Speaker 3:I think the one item I have of hers that she bought me that I wear, is that my good vibes hat. She bought that.
Speaker 2:Oh, that's what's up, cra, she bought that, all right. So what's up? Uh, craziest birthday story I have? I guess it would have to be a combination. Um, it was the strip club one which I've told before where I ended up at the strip club and somehow paid for myself for my birthday uh, my 18th birthday. Yeah, that's wrong. And then, uh, the fact that the, the chick that just got done with, uh, maternity leave, came back to the strip club, looked me in the depths of my soul and asked me if I wanted to lap dance and I said no. And then she was like you can at least look me in the eye. And I looked her in the eyes and said no, I don't want a lap dance from you.
Speaker 2:Then it would also be fucking, I think me and birthdays just don't. I believe it was also my 18th birthday. It was at the good like JC threw a birthday party and I invited some people from RCC and one of the chicks that the homie Steven knew was there. Like this she said something to like the effect that my birthday was lame or whoever, and I said bitch, and they had to catch me from finishing that statement. He had to like stop, he's like oh no, that's the homie. Yeah, I said bitch to her, that's probably openly. You said it, I said it. I looked at her in the depth of her soul and I said bitch to her, that's probably openly.
Speaker 2:You said it, I said it, I looked at her in the depths of her soul and I said, bitch, you said that. Though I said it, I was mad as fuck. I was like who the fuck?
Speaker 2:tell her let's go home yeah, that's exactly what happened, craziest gift I ever got. I won't say it was crazy, it it just it's be hell. So he got me the the lesbian porno for my 18th birthday too. It was all in the same year. It was mary carrie. I remember it was mary carrie and some other chicks, but I was like so you thought of me and said, hey, lesbian porn is the best thing for him he loves scissors ah shit.
Speaker 2:And then it was a trip because, like like a year later or so, I think, mary carrie went into politics and I was like I've seen this bitch in a double-sided dildo.
Speaker 3:Um, so it's clear you watched it oh yeah, yeah, I watched it.
Speaker 2:I'm not going to waste a gift, naturally. You got to be thoughtful. I didn't put it away. It's art, you know. I used it. I had to make sure. Why did he want me to have this gift?
Speaker 3:I watched it like 60 times within a week to make sure that the quality was good. It was.
Speaker 2:HD All right, so I had to just do my part. Thank you, vihel, for that gift. It probably cost you a good amount of money you know, I'm just being thoughtful. Alright, um, what advice would you guys have for me, since you guys have known me a while and my younger self as I get? What advice would you give me, younger McFly, on how to navigate life from what you've seen? You give you current you or younger, you Younger?
Speaker 3:me. Oh, I can't say what I'm going to say on camera.
Speaker 1:Fuck them niggas. Yeah, I'll say that that's what my advice would be. Fuck them, sorry ass niggas. Yeah, I'll say that that's what my advice would be. Fuck them, sorry ass niggas.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm gonna say that so he's just stealing my shit, ain't he? Yeah, yeah, he just piggyback off of.
Speaker 1:Oh, don't say that I used to hate that shit. Oh, I used to hate that shit you don't like piggybacking yeah, they would every time in the name. I'm going to piggyback off of what he said.
Speaker 3:Like stop saying it. So you prefer double down or Just say it. Oh shit, don't say nothing.

Speaker 2:I like that, that shit. Like every time I hear it I get very amped I can't drive when that song's on.
Speaker 3:I'm pretty sure uh desert's answer would be uh ambitious of a rider by tupac or that's accurate, whole discographyography.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, I can agree to that.
Speaker 1:So on your birthday would you have a particular song, or would it be the same?
Speaker 2:one. Oh no, that's my birthday theme song, so just your regular song. Oh, my regular song is something stupid.

Speaker 3:I like the no, no. A nintendo switch the first one, I don't want it. She's like and, and I couldn't tell her like it was a bad gift, because the look on her face was like I did good this year, right, and I was like you killed it, babe, perfect, perfect, I Perfect, I was like everything I wanted. For some reason, when you tell women you don't want anything, they don't believe it Because at that moment I didn't want anything. There was nothing I wanted.
Speaker 1:But when you tell them what you want, they get something else yeah. Well then, why the fuck did you ask me?
Speaker 3:So she. So she bought me a Nintendo Switch. I didn't, I had to fake, use it for a couple days and and then I just put it on the dock and now my daughter plays with it it's.
Speaker 2:It's a yearly gift, and I don't like every year. I can't say it was from. I'll just say they usually give me like that. They phone it in shit where they go get the body wash combination shit and I like I don't like it, especially because it's the particular smells like it's always like the musk, but and I'm like, and then at the time I'm like you get this every year and then I go. Are you trying to? I'm like you get this every year and then I go. Are you trying to tell me something?
Speaker 3:You get the Uncle Percy package. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Every year. I did get some shoes from Amanda that I tried to pretend but like four days later I was like this is whack. She got me like the Walmart, motherfucking shoes, like you need to work out shoes. I was like not these, not these, these are styrofoam, take them back.
Speaker 3:No, they're still in there, just never wear them, huh.
Speaker 2:So did you take them back, or you never took them back because Because?
Speaker 1:they're good. Well, I'm a cheap ass nigga, so I was just like you know what I? Well, I'm a cheap-ass nigga, so I was just like you know what.
Speaker 3:I'm going to just go ahead and do some yard work in here, oh my God, that's funny because I literally bought $10 shoes off Amazon to do yard work. Look, they just sold the yard.
Speaker 2:I still got them in the garage, all right. So when you were under 10 years old, what mattered more? The cake and candles or the action figures?
Speaker 1:The Oreos. I was a piece of shit. I remember I got like a birthday gift. I got two gifts, it's probably was that. And you know, like the, I guess I used to like shake my shit and be like, oh that's close throw that shit.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that is a pause and like I remember getting money and like after somebody gave me some clothes, that's close, throw that shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that is a pause. He's been shaking that shit and I remember getting money and after somebody gave me some clothes I'm like, ooh, but the answer? I was caked, I was caked in.
Speaker 2:I thought you were going to say you were caked up.
Speaker 1:I was like nah, Nah.
Speaker 3:I mean I won't. My honest answer is neither really matter to me.
Speaker 1:Really Neither like the confetti cake oh shit.
Speaker 3:Neither, because I live in a household where people love to bake, so there's always cakes and shit around, so it wasn't like cake was a special thing.
Speaker 2:And um. So now we live in times where that's a different statement.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I know People like to bake and shit yeah.
Speaker 2:No, the the cake, all the cakes around, oh yeah.
Speaker 1:I mean Doja.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:And um and um. The only action figures I really, really was excited about was when I got the Ninja Turtle set.
Speaker 2:So I was always an action figure. I never.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I always played with. Uh, that's pause. I'll pause it before. I always would play with my homeboys fucking whoa, whoa. Power Rangers and shit whoa, I did like that uh the. Rock'em.
Speaker 3:Sock'em Robot, though, with my homeboys fucking whoa, whoa, power Rangers and shit whoa. I did like that. The rock and soccer robot, though never we never got, one never got one. You can go buy one today. They still got them cool man.
Speaker 1:Them shits is fun. They're probably like $80.
Speaker 2:I was the weird kid that, like my sister, took me to the mall and I got the Ghostbuster proton pack.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, why is?
Speaker 3:that weird. Yeah, I was like that's me and the kid, because I went to school and told everybody I was a Ghostbuster.
Speaker 2:And I walked around like I don't know if you know this, but I'm a fucking Ghostbuster. You protect a girl because I'm a Ghostbuster.
Speaker 1:I was sitting you sound like hating me, I ain't fucked them, niggas should have ghost busted them.
Speaker 2:Hoes, I tried proton pack. Didn't work. Turns out it was plastic. I shot up everything. Nothing came out. Just pause. Uh, slimer. Oh yeah, it was a slime. Um, and it's weird cause after. Nah, I'm not gonna get into it. Uh, I'm not gonna do that when we're black. Ever had a surprise Party that actually shocked you.
Speaker 3:I don't think I've ever had a surprise party, so no.
Speaker 1:No, no, no, I don't think I've had one I had one, and that was.
Speaker 3:I've talked about it before it was.
Speaker 2:Uh, my dad had this old two-tone primer pickup truck. It was a toyota pickup truck and he took me to the riverside plaza. If anybody knows, the Riverside Plaza used to have the warehouse inside. So, um, he took me there to get a gift.
Speaker 2:And then we came back home and I think the telltale sign to turn off all the lights was him driving down the street past the house and me, being a a very, very, very observant kid, I looked to the house and the lights just shut off and I was like they heard this loud-ass truck. They knew to turn off the lights so it shocked me that it was attempted. But I kind of figured it out once the lights went off. And then I walked in and everybody was like surprised. I was like, oh shit, this is the first and last time you niggas ever show love for me. Then I proceeded. My sister bought me a crisscross. It was a crisscross VHS where, like, they show you how they did jump and all that, and all my friends were there and that was the last time I saw most of the niggas in my life. So Thank you and fuck everyone else. This show ain't over.
Speaker 3:Let me keep going.
Speaker 2:I'm stuck on crisscross vhs like god damn. Yes, it was a crisscross vhs, I remember it came in a green that's dope box.
Speaker 2:Sound like bts too yeah, and they showed you how they did jump. And then they had like a video, a couple of videos, at the end of the it was it was jumping, I believe I missed the bus was on there and they had videos for them. And I remember, remember I was a big Chris Cross fan, I even had my hair like them. So I was really offended when I saw Nate profess to me, he said take them shitlots off your head Because mine's got to look like that, because they weren't professing. So anyway, I'm being very vulnerable with you guys. I'm being very vulnerable with you guys. I miss the best song as a grown man. Be honest, do you want a birthday song or not?
Speaker 2:A birthday song, like when they sing birthday to you. Yeah.
Speaker 3:I don't really care.

Speaker 3:I don't, I don't. I'm not particularly fond of it, but I don't really care it's cute.
Speaker 2:It's cute. You know what's funny? My sister and people have done it so often for everyone else that I was expecting certain versions or remixes to the birthday song anytime I hear it. So I didn't hear it. I was like this ain't it.

Speaker 2:And I have confidence, but I shit with the way life goes.
Speaker 1:I was gonna say do you think 40 and all that's kind of it like it's like a conflict.
Speaker 2:One one side is like oh man, you feel amazing physically and you, you show what you're capable of mentally, but then you got life over here going gotcha bitch yeah like so it's a combination. So you're like you're fighting and you're like nigga. If I didn't have this shit, I'd be feeling amazing, but I still gotta deal with this shit like it yeah, I get that yeah, amen.
Speaker 3:I got it. Would you, if you could pick one, would you take a, a verse from J or a beat from Timbaland?
Speaker 2:verse from jay or a beat from timbaland.

Speaker 1:I keep from going to the broken glass everywhere.
Speaker 2:I said man, Tim, if you don't shut, up, he was rapping yeah, oh, no Then yeah, that shouldn't have happened.
Speaker 1:Nah, he just read that the beat and this people pissing on the staircase. Just don't care. Yeah, what would you say? Have your fears changed as you aged?
Speaker 2:it's usually the fear of the providing and, uh, making sure the family's okay. Because you know, when you're young you're thinking about you and and and your limits and your and your possibilities. And you get older and kids come into play and you're like what can I do for them because? And then you have that fear of what if I expire or die too soon before I can get them to where they should be or need to be, I guess that's what I should ask you answered it without me even saying like fears of, like mortality and stuff that they change, and you don't think about the shit, young, you think about.
Speaker 2:If death happens, it happens, but then you're thinking like, no, I need to make sure I'm here so I can get them. Becomes more of a constant as you get a bit older and then when you hear people dying around you, it becomes more reality that you're like there's a possibility. Nigga, don't take it for granted. That's why I hit that fucking Stairmaster and changed my diet.
Speaker 2:This happened last night. I walked past the fucking mirror and had to double take because I was like who the fuck is that? And I was like, oh, that's me.
Speaker 1:Nigga, you was scared of your own shadow.
Speaker 2:Yeah because I wasn't used to seeing me in that light, nigga.
Speaker 3:I bought 40 waist who is this nigga?
Speaker 2:I got to say this. I bought 40-inch waist jeans for yesterday.
Speaker 1:What's up, nigga?
Speaker 2:Couldn't fit. A year ago I was in size 50. The 40s fit me large on the waist so I had to wear a belt and, like I said, when I walked past the mirror I had to double who. And like I said when I walked past the mirror, I had to double say who the fuck is. Oh, that's me. What's up? Yeah, it kind of threw me I'm like what's wrong?
Speaker 1:no, because you still you still wearing no, I ain't, no, I'm too fucking.
Speaker 1:It's over here. We went to the store trying to buy some clothes and shit for vacation and amanda lost a bunch of weight, so congrats. And you know, she was, you know, re-outfitting. And some old nigga comes up and like I was getting some other stuff when I was walking up and I was like who's this nigga just talking to her? And then they're just talking about their fitness journey. And then I come up and he's like, oh, you got to get him going now.
Speaker 2:And I'm like I was like thanks, I guess I'm a man, fuck you, but thank you and fuck you you're doing great, but this guy.
Speaker 3:Um, my next question would be since you have the honor of being both a boy dad and girl dad, which one is more enjoyable?
Speaker 2:I think they have their equal benefits because there's certain milestones you can share with sons that you understand and connect with and resonate with you, because you were at a point where a son and had those moments. So when you get to reconnect with those moments you're like I.
Speaker 2:I know what that feels like because I was, I've been on both ends of that pause and what the on the, on the, on the, on the on the girl dad side it it's. You get to experience things that you are unfamiliar with and then you realize how different it's, a different type of love. I had to go somewhere and I took Zully somewhere and when I went back to pick up Ava she was like, oh my God, Dad, I thought you'd never come back and she gave me a hug and you realize it's a different feeling because with her she's a lot more emotional. Where, like, Andreas, is a lot more logical, so he's like me and she's the opposite, so like he'll kind of process something and understand in the moment this is what it is when she's more emotional and lets you know her feelings in the moment. So it's like it's two different loves but they're equal, it's just different.
Speaker 1:Different way to explain it, so it's equal to me that's dope, but they're equal.
Speaker 2:It's just different. It's equal to me. That's dope. People don't normally ask for a shoot down. People don't get to see the side of that, but yeah, it's dope. It's dope being able to see both sides.
Speaker 1:I will never See both sides.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'm done you sure about that, you might got one to take. And if I do, I'm going to shoot it in the sink, the accuracy.
Speaker 1:Now we hit 40 coming up. I know you just got here, but what do you? What is your next decade look like in your assessment.
Speaker 2:What are you? Success as far as podcast wise, hopefully preparation to getting the maneuvering out of UPS.
Speaker 1:You can say get the fuck out of here.
Speaker 2:Finding a different avenue to understand happiness, and and, and not let things that that have plagued me for 40 years plague me anymore.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:That that's the goal, and then and seeing how my kids turn out.
Speaker 1:uh, because in 10 years there'll be, it's going to be different.
Speaker 3:You have an 18 year old. That's crazy.
Speaker 2:So that that yeah that's great. I just think that's that's ain't it? Yeah, I remember holding tiny babies and now they're like they're, they have their own personalities. Hold up.
Speaker 3:I just thought about something that means we're getting close. We're getting close to our bad boy moment. Who the fuck is Reggie?
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh yeah. I mean. Oh shit, you just triggered me, god damn it. I was picking up Ava yesterday. I was bringing the kids up there and Ava walked up to me and she goes dad, dad, dad. And then a lark was running around. So she picks up a lark and she's like dad, can you hold him? And then some black kid walks by and she goes bye, ava. She goes bye and I looked at her and I said I look back and she goes what? And then Zulu's like don't mind him.
Speaker 3:I said no, him.
Speaker 2:I said no, fuck that. Who was him? Who was him?
Speaker 3:yeah, who was him?
Speaker 2:and then she was able. It was like he's nobody. Dad said no, I don't know this, saying hated random boys I'm gonna tell y'all guys, uh, you got a long way to go. Oh no, that's one thing I can't like. I was like who the fuck's that?
Speaker 1:I got an 18 year or 17 year old in here and you're just like, yeah, that's. I got an 18-year-old or 17-year-old in here and you're just like, yeah, I hope this nigga could fight. That's what I be looking at, where I'm just like just don't get caught out there sleeping with me, and then they start driving that.
Speaker 2:That's scary too, anyway. That's the scary shit, I'm not gonna incriminate myself threatening oh yeah, and I can't.
Speaker 1:I'll do it.
Speaker 3:Boys nigga, don't do that go fuck, we're gonna have to be like more lethal protection, protection. Now he's gonna be gone for three to five protection five months you can't just have no kids protection. Oh, it's my turn.
Speaker 1:My bad, go ahead yeah, no, it is yours, that's right this is.
Speaker 3:This is not a question. I just need you to stop stop coming from my, from my, stop coming from my boy Lark. Okay, he's not, he's not that he's not.
Speaker 2:He's not you know what pisses me off about Lark aka Stitch? You, he's not a Stitch. You know what pisses me off about a Lark aka Stitch? You know, in this health journey we only get few joys.
Speaker 2:And he likes all your snacks he likes all my snacks and one day this week I snuck off because I was like I still got a little bit of calories left. So I had one of those Quest brownies and I always heat it up. So I'm like I'm going to sneak. I always heat it up so I'm like I'm gonna sneak off, heat it up and eat it.
Speaker 2:I go, heat it up you smoke that shit out I see something creep around the corner, dad, I said god damn it, smiling too he. And then, like he sees it, he smiles. He's like all right, he's like we got us a snack. I said god damn it. So I go upstairs and I'm like he's going to forget about it. That motherfucker was like huh, so I can't have nothing of my own. And then he ended up getting damn near almost half the goddamn brownie. I was like there was, there was no point to enjoy this brownie.
Speaker 3:It sounds like to me he was saving you the calories.
Speaker 2:I did lose weight. See, he's more helpful, he's looking out.
Speaker 3:He See, he's more helpful. He's just looking out, he's looking out.
Speaker 2:Looking out.
Speaker 3:Looking out my question it would be is there? Do you feel like it's kind of like I don't know generic, but do you feel like the things you've learned over the last decade, you are in a place now where you can implement them to be twice as good in this next decade?
Speaker 2:I'll say yes, and no only because yes, just because you comprehend, you kind of got the bearings and you're like all right, the gist of it is this this is the job, parenting is this, you know. But then you're like, all right, the gist of it is this this is the job, parenting is this. But then you're like then it's still unfamiliar territory, because now they're going into teen years and it's a different time, and every couple years there's something new and different that we ain't fucking heard of. So it's like you kind of get an idea of what you're supposed to be to a degree, but then you still don't know what the fuck is to come that question was catered towards you, but you went to the father beside you oh, catered towards me as a.
Speaker 2:I think I understand, and as I get older, what my capabilities are and the limiting of my soul seems to kind of disappear with each milestone I reach, health-wise, like. That's why I honestly wanted to perform last night. I wanted to see where I was capable of and when you realize that you could do better than you did in your 20s as a performer. That just gave me another acknowledgement of, and which was a silver lining for me because of how the show ended, was I can do anything, even playing basketball at the gym.
Speaker 2:I remember when I first started I was winded, I was out of shape, overweight, out of shape, overweight, and then now it's to the point that these niggas dread me being on the court with them because they know this nigga's going to rebound like crazy. He's going to fucking play defense and try to lock somebody down or if my shot's on, I'm hitting it. So it's doing things that I haven't been able to do in a long time. But let me know that I was limiting myself as opposed to realizing what I was capable of, so I was thinking more of you can't do this instead of realizing you can do anything you fucking want to, if you just put it in mind. So the next however many years, is just understanding that the only limits I have is what I put on myself. So the next 10 years should be interesting. The only limits I have is what I put on myself.
Speaker 1:So the next 10 years should be interesting. I'm going to ask you something that I would have asked you earlier, since you brought it up when are you going to stop doing my nigga Patrick like?
Speaker 2:that on Instagram. Which part? That's what I'm trying to figure out. What did I do? What did I do?
Speaker 3:Which part that nigga Hold on, that nigga Patrick like that on Instagram? Which part? That's what I'm trying to figure out. What did I do? What did I do? Which part that nigga hold on? Sorry, no, that nigga Patrick was lucky. I was tired last night because I had a line of jokes ready for his ass.
Speaker 2:Are we referring to the Uncle Aaron Every time I?
Speaker 1:see the one-on-one clips I'm like damn nigga, don't put this on. It looks like it's 11 to 1 what are we talking about, the Uncle?
Speaker 3:Aaron are we talking about the? Did he do it? He's talking about the basketball oh yeah, the basketball oh.
Speaker 2:I thought you were talking about the. The cause there was, if you pay attention to the clips from last night. They got anyway, that's on that nigga. I told him. I said you know the camera's on right, you know what he's on right, you know what he signed up, for I just always laugh.
Speaker 3:I'm like, because I looked at it, I said one of them niggas have to take a PT test every year and the other one's just in shape.
Speaker 1:Oh no, it's a mile and a half a year. That's why you joined the Navy For the listeners.
Speaker 2:I post videos every time I play basketball and Patrick just happens to be consistently in videos and possibly the victim in these videos.
Speaker 1:Not possibly.
Speaker 3:It's just wild that the prowler has weak ankles he should have learned something from miles you need to wear a suit next time you play. I can hear patrick right now man, fuck you mo no, but it was.
Speaker 2:I said it's, it's dope about patrick is. Throughout the years he's always been like like this positive guy and like he's seen me at my slow points and high points. So like when he's he makes it, you got quicker. I don't like that shit. I know it's. It's from a place of yeah, it's it's love. Yeah, it's love. Anytime I talk shit about him, he knows it's not from a bad place.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, Fuck no, when I talk shit about him, it's from my own amusement.
Speaker 2:Well, yeah, you just an asshole. I was still trying to see where the positivity came in, because he's been talking shit the whole time.
Speaker 1:Well, he said tired positivity.
Speaker 2:Oh.
Speaker 3:Well, he said tired positively, oh. So it's kind of it's being canceled out.
Speaker 1:It's being tested. How about musically? How are we looking?
Speaker 3:You asked two questions, oh.
Speaker 1:I'm sorry, my bad, I'll retract.
Speaker 3:No, go ahead. I'll save it no go ahead.
Speaker 2:Musically, I plan on releasing songs. Musically, I plan on releasing songs. As far as a project, it's all dependent on timing and feeling. And again I say I will never perform free again. I learned, I thought about it last night and I said nigga, no one's getting this shit for free, it's going to be for a price. I know what my capabilities are and I know I can put on a hell of a show, and I hear how many niggas do use backing tracks or or they rely heavily on on on sounds instead of their, their vocal. That that's your instrument. Your voice is your instrument. Let's go. This is not just anybody, but your voice is your instrument. Utilize it. Make the most of it. Don't try to rely on things to mask something. Take your craft seriously and do it right, Otherwise it doesn't sound right. So yeah, Does that work?
Speaker 3:I said he can do the last question.
Speaker 2:No, you got one more.
Speaker 1:That's cool, I'll answer it quickly he just trying to like. That's not positive.
Speaker 2:Just one more. Just one more question. Come on, man.
Speaker 1:You be silly.
Speaker 3:Did you have a? Did you, did you indulge in a cheat meal for your birthday? I thought about this because I was talking to Pacino and he said he had pozole and cheesecake on his birthday. I said I know that's not in your macros, nigga, so did you partake?
Speaker 2:in anything you mean this year.
Speaker 3:Yeah, do you plan on partaking in anything on your birthday?
Speaker 2:I don't plan on it. I'll probably have a version of it. So like I like pizza, so I'd have a version.
Speaker 3:There's no such thing as healthy pizza.
Speaker 2:Well, there's a less calorie dense pizza.
Speaker 3:Oh, just the toppings Cooking with quiche. Just the toppings Cooking with quiche.
Speaker 1:What about? The cauliflower? Ain't good.
Speaker 3:No no.
Speaker 2:But you can use certain things.
Speaker 3:By the time you put, you put the sauce on.
Speaker 2:There it's a wrap, when a pizza a whole pie could be 700 whatever calories as opposed to 2,000.
Speaker 3:Nigga, when you only got 18 for the day. 700 is a lot.
Speaker 2:That's why you only eat two meals that day and you go out of your way to be on a fast for half the day, just so you can enjoy that pizza.
Speaker 3:Side note nigga those sour. I know you don't like the puff bars, but them sour ones is fucking fire.
Speaker 2:I'm going to get me a drum roll donut now.
Speaker 3:Oh shit's fire too.
