Another weekend passed, another time Mal flakes on Demaris like 3 month old box braids and Rory gets into podcast beef. There was a debate on twitter stemming from Mal's take that Drake is a better songwriter than Mariah Carey, and Demaris doubles down on her take while Rory & Mal cast doubt (11:43). Speaking of comparing two greats, Tank said that Chris Brown is better than Michael Jackson in every aspect of talent - spoiler alert, the crew does not agree (29:00). Kanye's viral rant at 1Oak has resurfaced and we react to Chris Brown's version of the story (45:26). Meanwhile, Mandii from 'Whoreible Decisions' had some choice words for Melyssa Ford, and this makes us beg the question - Should media publicly critique other media platforms, especially in similar genres (55:55)? We discuss and come to an understanding. Julian catches the crew up on why the word 'demure' is suddenly inescapable if you're online (1:17:00), and Rory gets vulnerable, sharing a story with us of the last time he was hit on (1:29:44). We have voicemails! The first is from a guy asking about trendy words/phrases that we really hate (1:34:55), and the second is about etiquette for following/unfollowing after a breakup (1:46:30).

Yerrrrrr. Happy Friday! You guys outside this weekend? Rory was this week, and ended up in a crazy situation with an equally crazy woman (3:38). Meanwhile the internet was in a frenzy over Michael Rubin’s comments regarding Meek Mill and his sexuality (13:55). Tyler The Creator is also under fire for his comments regarding the current state of hip-hop and the team addresses why some might think he’s a hypocrite (33:01). Mal promises us that Kevin Hart was NOT coerced into cheating on his wife while on molly, no matter what his lawyers insisted he say (47:01). Oscar De La Hoya’s newly found freedom has us open a discussion about who on the team has tried on their mother’s clothes (55:13). There’s some predictions made about the new season of Emily In Paris, and some light banter and debate over South Park vs. The Simpsons vs. Family Guy (1:00:07). Then we get into voicemails! The first is about a man who wants advice about how to be less thirsty (1:17:39). The second one is from a woman who wants Mal’s opinion on using sperm donors (this might be a proposition, hold for clarity) (1:35:08).

No, but seriously - what the hell is going on? Rory takes Demaris to trial over her allegedly standing him up on a night out (2:25), and she gives some insight into how she got kicked out of an Ice Spice concert in NY (12:19) . It was apparently a pretty wild week according to the internet, but Rory insists he went to (and left) the Lucky Daye show in peace (26:43). Unfortunately, the Olympics aren’t going on anymore to distract us from stupid sh*t, but we do cover the men’s basketball win and who the true MVP of the team was (31:51). Speaking of the Olympics, does Noah Lyles deserve his own shoe? We speak on his comments towards Anthony Edwards (44:26). Tyrese decided to cosplay as Marvin Gaye while singing the National Anthem at a pre-season football game (53:08). We want a wellness check done on our brother. Soon. Was Rory right about Drake’s terms with UMG (1:05:19)? Are we psychic? And is Latto the new Hov? We discuss her new album and Ebro’s comments about her recent style of music (1:12:21). We have voicemails! The first caller wants us to design a movie for us to star in (1:24:15), and the second wants our opinion on women stealing women from men (1:37:15).

U S A ! That red, white and blue is out here dominating in the Olympics! So much so that the Men's 200m Track final interrupted our intro and we watched in agony as our hero Noah Lyles came in third to win bronze. Speaking of Noah Lyles - why is it that everyone groans at the mention of his name? We discuss our own perspectives on why he gets under the skin of so many people. Rory shares with us his latest substance of choice. In more important news, Drake dropped 100GB's of unreleased footage, music, and memes - causing discussion on his relationship with Serena Williams, and before we can even truly dive into the lyrics, Mal has an unexpected interruption. When we come back, we get into our thoughts on Drake's current relationship with J Cole and why it might not be in the best place, as well as how we expect UMG reacted to the news of these releases. Kanye's former employee accuses him of being addicted to laughing gas, causing Rory's tinfoil hat to enter the room and suggest Kanye's dentist might've been sent by the CIA. We have voicemails - The first being a call back (and a call out, apparently), and the other a teacher who needs advice on work/life balancing.

The reformed whores unite in this episode featuring the legendary Vinny from reality tv show Jersey Shore. We get immediately to the important questions with him - his performance residency at Las Vegas’ esteemed establishment ‘Chippendales’ (05:55), and just how much raunchier women can be than men. Vinny is currently in these online dating streets with Julian and they give us the rundown on why it's so hard for them to find love and family (11:28). Our guest also takes time to address the backlash he received from a viral clip about him preferring to date black women, even doing as much as explaining the term ‘PAWG’ to a very lost Rory (27:54). We then get into some voicemails with him and give our listeners some well needed advice (48:04).

Happy Friday gang! The gang went outside last night, and came in hungover with stories and unhashed resentments over more music debates. Julian has a hot take that Nas is overrated and it causes quite the stir in the room (08:31). LL Cool J has a hot take of his own: his ‘Mount Rushmore’ of Def Jam, and the boys give their own (23:04). Lil Yachty is back in the blogs for admitting that he took a back road on getting his sampled song out to the world against the original artists’ wishes (32:27). We also discuss his admission that he recently heard ‘The Black Album’ for the first time, and this turns into a conversation about just how much the new generation owes to the culture (45:05). It’s official: Dame Dash’s ownership in Reasonable Doubt will be auctioned off (56:09), and also official, Mal has ADHD. Mal being neurodivergent doesn't stop him from catching a political stray from a fellow podcaster, and we discuss the history of politics in hip-hop (1:04:45). Cardi B is having a baby and getting rid of her husband, and we predict that this will once again push her album back, causing Demaris and Mal to have a small disagreement about what artists owe casual fans (1:17:23). We have a voicemail from a fan asking for relationship advice for his voyeuristic girlfriend (1:37:21), and also take time to commiserate about how being a podcaster can make dating difficult (1:45:46).

We’re back after a busy weekend. Thank you Philly for kicking off the campaign! After the show the guys linked with Baby D in Philly for Broccoli City. It was a mixy weekend on the festival grounds. Meanwhile, Julian was taking shrooms and binge watching the Olympics back in NY. In Marvel news (our specialty) Robert Downey Jr. gets casted as Dr. Doom (22:35). This leads to us talking about one of our favorite films, Tropic Thunder. Then the guys share what Olympic events they’re been watching (30:26). If you’re watching any sport you’ll most likely see Snoop Dogg. It already feels like the Olympics are in LA. In music news, Tory’s driver submits a testimony that offers no new information (50:35). Did you catch Will Smith’s new song (56:19)? One could only hope to be so lucky. We review his latest single and Ice Spice’s vulnerable and moving album. Soulja Boy & Bow Wow popped out on Shamu and all the sea creatures for an unexpected performance (1:08:28). Speaking of unexpected, Baby D joins us late in the episode and shares her perspective from Broccoli City (1:14:01). It’s time for voicemails (1:28:13)! First we discuss our bad habits. Then we give bachelor party advice. And for the final call we give our hottest takes. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this + more!

This episode was brought to you by an edible. Or two. Julian has appeared at work without his beard (dont worry, Demaris is here, we’re talking about the one on his face) (1:30). He fills us in on his new look, and then we get into some light banter about Mal’s old club habits (9:30). Rihanna is out here starting new fashion trends, and the crew shares how they would participate (18:42). The olympics are coming (32:00), and so are Drake and Yachty with new music (39:10). Mal finds it hard to believe Eminem sold 200k+ his first week (46:50), and we get into a convo about which artists changed the music landscape (51:57). We have voicemails! One guy asks us for some financial advice (1:01:57), and the other needs OnlyFans advice (1:16:59).

Big Tuesday vibes gang! How would you feel about a R&B Vocalist draft, done by the team? Well one will be coming to you via Patreon soon, so sign up here and let us know who you think should be included! While we get you guys' votes on that, Steve Harvey was getting votes from god knows who for a Family Feud category - Who Is The Greatest Rapper Of All Time (10:21)? Of course America disappoints us. We then do our usual weekend recap, and the team finds out that Yomi threw a gathering they knew nothing about (can you blame her? honestly.) (24:42) SPOILER ALERT: ‘The Bear’ | Rory finally starts The Bear and gives us a partial review (31:33), and then we get into a debate of our favorite caucasian actresses of all time (49:01). Lupe Fiasco caused quite the stir on spaces with a conversation about who should be making decisions regarding letting people in The (hip-hop) Culture; with many thinking its just more poorly masked hate for Kendrick Lamar (57:33). Taylor Swift and Scooter Braun were the focus of a documentary focusing on their infamous beef over Swift’s masters, and Rory can understand Scooter’s side (1:18:05). We also give our review on new music (1:26:14), quickly discuss Joe Biden dropping out of the presidential election (1:47:48), a voicemail about 20/20 hindsight (1:55:17), + more!

It's 7 am FRIDAY, it's 95 degrees! Mal gets immediately to pressing Demaris about romantic rules, and he starts working through some more boundaries any woman of his can't cross. On a further well-deserved attack on women, Rory accuses Latto of gaslighting on her latest single, so we get into a lyric breakdown of toxic songs, including some of Rory's (18:11). We address Big Sean's alleged leak and the current state of his career, as well as whether awe believe Kanye is actually responsible for the leak (27:19). Speaking of Kanye, his wife is making the headlines again with her nudity (35:00). Schoolboy Q's Toronto show was cancelled, so the crew puts Mal's feet to the fire (40:00), which progresses into a (fair and peaceful, I promise) disagreement about whether Kendrick and Drake will go to each others cities on tour next year (44:37). Ariana Grande got Brandy and Monica to reunite for the remix to her Boy Is Mine track, and this leads to a debate regarding the three, + Mariah Carey - who is the better vocalist (56:47)? Speaking of nostalgia, Mal tries to tell us we are interpreting 'Love and Basketball' wrong (1:06:30). Trump's ear gauze trend ran through the RNC like Nelly's band-aid (1:12:12), and Amber Rose proves her dedication to the never return to Philly (can't relate, we'll be there next week - tickets available now) . We have voicemails! The first one is from a young man who just wanted to flex his sexual prowess under the guise of needing advice (1:25:44). We let him get his shit off, but became curious about his endeavors and get into a conversation about sex swings that leaves the entire team in tears (1:30:49). The second voicemail is from a dewd from Baltimore who had to chewwse between his current thing and his friend (1:39:16).
