We Have More Thoughts

WHMT #038 | Jay-Z vs Nas: NYC Casino Wars, The Cost of Loyalty, Your Friend Wakes Up From A 15-Year Coma + MORE!


Listen Later

This week on We Have More Thoughts, the crew kicks off with a wild “what if” — what would you tell your best friend if they woke up from a 15-year coma? They break down what’s changed since 2010 — from AI and social media to LeBron still dropping 30 a game in 2025 (02:00). Next, they go deep on the real cost of life support — would you spend your life savings to keep someone on a ventilator? (06:00) They get real about family, loyalty, and how long you’d keep hope alive. From there, the conversation flips to rappers turned moguls — Nas joining a $5 billion casino expansion in Queens, NY and Jay-Z bidding for a Times Square casino (12:30). The crew unpacks capitalism, gentrification, and whether having Black faces at the table makes a difference if the community still loses (15:00). Is it better to gentrify your own block, or does it just keep the cycle going? In the final stretch, the guys open up about greed, legacy, and what “enough” money looks like — $100M or Bezos billions? (29:00) And they close by asking a heavy question: Do you hold yourself to the same standard you expect from others? (42:00) Should you lower your energy to match someone’s bad vibe, or keep your integrity no matter what?

Comedy, big questions, and no filter — We Have More Thoughts always leaves you with more to think about.
