Chapter 2: What are the implications of Bruno Mars' new song?
It's a sexy red song. So you wasn't... This is not going on Bruno's album.
So you're saying... I'm with you too. I don't think it will. But if it's not going on his album, then... Well, he has two records already in the top 10 Billboard right now. Well, yeah. I mean, he doesn't need this on his album. But I'm just saying, I just, I don't know. I'm just disappointed in this record.
But then again, this is coming from somebody that, like I told you, I don't really, I recognize the talent that Bruno Mars is. He's talented. He's a great performer. He has smashed records, smashed songs. Like he's, I'm not speaking against that. Me personally, I just don't play Bruno Mars. And that's fine. Like I don't go to his albums. I don't play his albums.
I recognize that he has some big songs right now. Like one of the songs I really like with Lady Gaga.
Number one song. Yeah. Like I recognize that.
I like that song too. But I will never play that song.
No. I wouldn't change it.
If it came on a playlist or something, I'd leave it. I like the song. Yeah, I would leave it if it came on a playlist or something. But you're not going to it. But I'm not going to that song and saying, yo, I need to hear that. I got moms in the car. I don't know. That's what Bruno's great when moms is in the car.
Yeah.

Chapter 3: How do the hosts feel about the collaboration between Bruno Mars and Sexy Red?
But I think that with Bruno, I thought that she would kind of... Let me clean it up a little bit because I maybe told you a year ago, two years ago, that I'm waiting for the sexy red rebrand. Once she completely changes her image, not so... you know, ratchet. Like, I could see the aesthetic.
Like, when she decides to clean her image up and go a different way, I think she's going to be a bigger artist than she is now.
So, I mean, and I remember disagreeing with you on that and I do still disagree with you on that. Thank you. Stay consistent. I like that. The only reason why, yeah, I stay in our business. The reason why I believe that, I think, maybe clothes wise. Cause in this video, she had on more clothes than usual. Um, but what I will say is as far as what she talks about and sexy red, not sexy.
Red's whole brand is relatability. If she gets rid of relate of her relatability, then as far as what she, her brand is relatability.
Yeah. What do you mean by that?
Hood relatability. Ratchet relatability.
Oh, just say ratchet. Don't try to put nice words on it. No, ratchet is her brand.
No, but ratchet girls relate to her. That's what I'm saying. She doesn't wear a lot of makeup. She doesn't do over-the-top dressing. That's what makes her special. If she takes away what makes her special, it might be harder for her. That's why I just don't see her ever doing that. Her whole brand is, this is who I am, I'm sticking to it.
So like I told you before, if she changes that, now would have been the time on the Bruno record, and even then, she didn't change it. She's on the couch, more clothes than usual, but doing a split barefoot.

Chapter 4: What are the reactions to new music shared by the hosts?
So in the Twitter community, they like pinned...
Yeah, I saw that. I still check in on the Twitter community every once in a while. The Twitter community and the Discord just to make sure I know what's going on. Y'all aren't getting killed for anything. But yeah, I saw it.
So I appreciate it. You don't need to check. I can't do what you did, but what is that for?
It's been a long weekend.
It has been a long weekend. My phone wouldn't stop ringing, texting. Really? I was on Discord with our listeners playing my album. I had a great fucking weekend. Shout out to the listeners on Discord. Did they enjoy it? Yeah, I played some snippets. I'm getting sort of close. Okay. And a new record will be coming out relatively soon, depending on this post-fire thing.
But yeah, it was fun to get some feedback, especially from people like... A lot of our Discord listeners are just straight hip-hop heads. Yeah. So I do like playing...
r&b or more you know alternative pop shit with them to get their feedback um so it was a good time we were there it was saturday night around like midnight and then a bunch of people missed it so i came back in on sunday at 3 p.m and replayed some of the stuff it was a good time though they gave good feedback some people was hating but they bruno mars fans yeah i mean you know that's that's we listen we love to hate who you think will have a better album me or bruno
I'm going to go on a limb and say Bruno. What? Yeah, that's a limb.
I'm on a limb.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of the recent rap feud?
I mean, you throw a shot like that, some guy called H or a guy called H... You got to understand that as a rapper, you have to protect your skill set and you have to be willing to put your skill set on the table when the MC does something like that. So I think that Central C knows that H was going to respond and obviously knows that. But I like it if it's going to stay just as a sparring.
If they're going to just go at each other on wax and, you know, that's cool. I mean, C commented on his Instagram. I think this is friendlier than we think it is. He commented with a laughing emoji, a fire emoji, and then said, fair enough. Yeah. To me, I was like, all right, cool. You had the right to reply. I respect that. But C can't just, he's too good of a rapper with the new generation.
He can't just do the Instagram comment shit. You can't say fair enough unless you're replying. Either ignore it outright. You can't just do the LOLs. No, but hold on. Does he have, no, but because he said what he said on his record, H responded. It could stay there. I said what I said. A guy called H, that's a shot.
I'm cool with that as well.
It can stay there.
Rory doesn't like that. Since you see, you don't have to respond to that.
He don't have to respond. Because it's healthy. They don't have no real fucking beef. I think they're both very talented rappers. Yeah, I would want to see this go. Y'all wouldn't? But I did say that before Drake and Kendrick. I was like, oh, finally, we're getting a rap beef that's not street shit at all. It's going to be so much fun, so wholesome. Yeah, I was wrong with my 2024 prediction.
As long as H don't delete the song. Let it stay here.

Chapter 6: How does gym etiquette impact workout culture?
2025.
Yeah, what happened to this whole passive? That went out in 10 minutes. All I said was as long as he don't delete the song.
We're going to be classy.
I thought we were going to be classy this year. It lasted five fucking minutes. All I said was as long as H doesn't delete the record.
cool leave it there that's all i didn't i'm not saying no names no nothing i'm just saying he just don't delete the record the deflection you know what the matter is all i said was just do not let me tell you let me tell you i'm not arguing with you this year we're not arguing i'm not i'm smiling you know i mean it's everything is love i'm just saying don't delete the record h that's all i'm saying now i'm sorry okay what if what if the label takes it down because because c uh sues for defamation
No, because again, I want this to be a positive thing. Dwight Howard is setting the tone for positive diss records. Oh, God. Yeah. You took the, what do you mean? Is Dwight Howard rapping now? Listen, the Lakers need a center. Dwight or Howard is rapping. I don't know what's real anymore. What is going on?

Chapter 7: What are the latest trends in music and artist collaborations?
I'm telling you, assimilation. We're living it. So Dwight Howard posted a photo of him penning a 16 in the studio with headphones on. That's his baby mother, ex-wife.
No, this is his wife, his current wife that he's in the studio with right now. She's apparently cheering him on.
Nice. Okay. Not doing IG videos exposing what he likes to do with his butt. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. So a positive supportive wife. So are him and his wife like dissing each other in a positive way? What is the hashtags? Inspiration. Inspiration. That's where you're trying to fish for info? Like what's the hashtags there? Pray God heal they hearts. No shade.
About to drop the first positive diss song ever. Yep, me and my wife about to inspire all of our enemies. Okay, so they're shooting at like the other couples.
Shaq, yeah. They're about to shoot at Shaq and probably his baby mother who's been accusing him of being nasty and crazy for a while. So Shaq and his baby mother about to get the most positive diss song in the world.
Shawnee has been accusing Shaq of being nasty and what? No. All right. When it comes to basketball players that could rap, Dwight Howard, who doesn't rap, is going after Hove. I don't know if Shaq is to be played. That's your first opponent, Dwight Howard? You've never even penned a 16. You want to go against a fucking God? Yeah. Dwight, I don't know if you understand.
You want to go against a genie? I don't know if you want to rap with Shaq, though. Shaq is proven. Shaq got classic songs. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think he want to do that. Hey, Dwight, get your ass in the gym. And because the Lakers need a center. Fuck all this rapping, positive disc record shit. We need a center bad. Make a call. Get Rob Palenka. Somebody get some genie bus.
Get somebody on the phone. We need a center and we need a center right now. You think the Lakers stink? Dwight would be the one. Somebody. There's a lot of studios in L.A. No, Dwight don't need a... Dwight, get your ass on the box and rebound, man. That's what you do. Rebound, defend, and fucking... Just do something, because we need something. And the Lakers... You all right? I just hate it.

Chapter 8: How do personal stories shape parenting perspectives?
Look how the tables have turned. The Knicks are amazing. I'm glad you're feeling what I've felt my entire life. Shout out to the Knicks. Shout out to Jalen Brunson and Carl Anthony Townsby. They've been named all-star starters for the East. First time in fucking three generations. They deserve it. The Knicks look good. I ain't going to lie.
Ever since I had not predicted them winning at all, they kind of went on a losing streak.
but hopefully they get that get that out they system now shut up yeah get that out they system now you know right before the all-star break get these losses out the way and then come back after the break and you know run the table but I do like the way the Knicks are looking shout out to um Carl Anthony you know Jalen Brunson yeah absolutely before we get off music um did you hear the Travis Scott single that came out over the weekend with the video oh well I just heard I just yeah I just played it for me today when I walked in the studio when I sat down I watched it um
Again, Travis is one of those artists, the music is always going to be good. I just don't, I can't tell you anything he said on that record. Which is why the music is so important. But the music is great. Tay Keith killed that. It's a great song. It's a fire beat, but because we can never really understand what the fuck he's saying. That makes the music so much more important. And I don't know.
I have this Travis record. I don't know if there's been much growth. I mean, that was kind of our critique of the last Travis project. It was the first one that we felt like was a bit more of the same. This single doesn't give me much hope. I mean, Travis is, I think, safely say, a legendary producer. So I'm not going in doubting that the album is going to be all this. But I mean, I don't know.
The video was better than the song to me. I thought it was a cool visual. I don't know if I'll go back to this. Of course, the moment the album drops, I'll be running to it because it's Travis Scott. But this single, meh. I'll listen to it a couple more times. It might be a good workout playlist. I don't know, playlist working out.
There's like 40 other Travis Scott songs that sound similar to this that I would put when I'm on the bench press before that. That's his sound. He's staying true to his sound. You bench press?
Why she coming out? What's that about? Because he tried to slide that shit in. Like, I wasn't going to notice the condom wasn't on. You bench press?
He tried to slide that shit in like I wasn't going to notice the condom wasn't on. I lay down the towel when I bench press. That's my condom.
