We can explain how AI works, data centers, but there are certain things that we don't necessarily understand.
Better version of play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Yes.

Congrats on the release, Con. For sure. La Machina. What does that mean, Ed? That means the machine. En español. En español. You beat me to it. Okay.

Chapter 2: What are the thoughts on the new album by Conway?
And then we double back next year. Like, oh, wait, remember when we were mad at drill music? It's still a problem. Yeah. Oh, y'all forgot? Like, no, you forgot. You moved on to the next thing. Aside from that record, it was Kodak.
Chapter 3: How do the hosts feel about yoga and weed retreats?
Kodak put out... His album, I don't think we talked about it, did we? No, nor did I listen. I'll be quite honest with you. Well, you know, Kodak, I talk about him a lot. Kodak is one of my favorite artists, probably of the younger artists. He's probably my favorite, him and Stove God. But yeah, he put out Back 4 Everything. Um, Kodak is working, man. So he's going on a press run. Yeah.
He's, you know, he's, he had the incident in LA, unfortunately, where he was shot. Uh, he spoke about that on, on platforms already. Um, hopefully he's recovering. Uh, he looks, he seems to, to be in better spirits and physically doing better. He posted a picture with, uh, he was hanging out with Ed Sheeran over the weekend and said, we got a lot of music on the way.
A lot of label exec put that together. Ed looked like he was comfortable, though, man. He was wearing the chain. He had the jewelry on. Justin Bieber did it, too? You know what I mean? So it's like, you know, once they put the jewelry on, that means they're comfortable. Wait, was it his chain or was he wearing Kodak's chain? No, he was wearing Kodak's chain. No, Kodak gave him a chain. Oh, God.
You know what I mean? He gave him the piece. You know, once he put the piece on him, now Ed Sheeran has the Yak energy. He's a super gremlin now. I don't know anything you just said, but I just don't believe that Ed Sheeran- That's the Yak language. So Ed Sheeran is a super gremlin now. I can't wait to hear his slow jam over the guitars. He's a super gremlin now. Oh my God.
I think we're going to get some great music out of this, honestly. Kodak is one of those artists I think that will surprise people. He can rap on anything. He plays with a lot of melodies. He does a lot of his own hooks. Usually that's what I look at for artists. They do a lot of their own hooks and their melodies and stuff like that.
Linking up with a guy like Ed Sheeran is not awkward to me because it's like, okay, this is a kid that wants to do this type of shit. Is Kodak signed to Atlantic? I believe so. Okay. See how easy I guessed that one? Don't need to fact check that. I mean, listen. Julie, I see the move. But I don't give a fuck. As long as we get some great music out of it. No, I get it. I am fucking around.
I know the game. But sometimes that put Kodak's chain on. And listen, now I may sound like a hater. Maybe they just want to have fucking fun. We always sound like haters. It's okay. For sure. But good for them. I hope good music comes out of it. That's what I want. At the end of the day. Kodak keeps safe and away from all crime. But I will listen to the album. I definitely will.
Back For Everything, Kodak Black, available now. I don't know what other music we got. Robert Glasper, Black Radio 3. If you know anything about that series, I was really looking forward to that. He's got Killer Mike, BJ's Chicago Kid, Q-Tip, Yeba, Her, Music Soulchild. Music Soulchild's been doing a lot lately. Lettucey, Aunt Clemens, Jennifer Hudson, PJ Morton, Ty Dolla, a whole bunch more.
But if you know anything about those Black Radio series, Robert Glasper goes in on that type of shit. Yeah. Definitely enjoyed that album. But I like that we got right into music right away. Damaris looks very bored. She wants to get to the messiness. No, I'm just making sure you guys cover all the music that came out. What'd you listen to over the weekend?

Chapter 4: What insights do they share about psychics and the afterlife?
Give me the mega million numbers. How about that? You think the dead knows the Mega Million numbers? No, the psychic should. Yeah. That's what he's describing as a medium. Yes. And that's someone who can commune with spirits. Like, where they're still in between the real world and, like, the afterlife? Is that it? No, they can just communicate.
Once they completely moved on to another realm, they can still communicate with them? Yes. Did you watch that Dead series on Netflix? I forgot the name of it, but it dealt with mediums. It dealt with people that had near-death experiences. It dealt with recarnation. It was interesting, to say the least.
If they got that many people to lie on camera, then- Do you feel like we die when we sleep a little bit? Do you feel like that's how it is when you die?
Chapter 5: How do they relate dreams to experiences of near-death?
No.
No.
I don't think so. I think that's how it is when we die. You think it's like going to sleep? I think it's like going to sleep and we just wake up if we're still alive. Well, a lot of near-death experiences are based on, this is what they say, a theory, is based off of your brain releasing. When you die, your brain releases all this DMT. DMT is also what our brain produces to dream.
And when you die, it releases the most it ever can. And if you don't die, you just have a near-death experience where people, you're floating above your own body or you can watch you in the ambulance. You can watch you getting operated on. That is all based off of what our brain uses to dream more or less. And this isn't, this is just a theory. It's not a fact by any means.
So yeah, there is aspects I think of death in your dreams and when you're sleeping, but I don't think it's like dying per se. I was looking at something a few weeks ago about the effects of smoking weed that what it has on your sleep and everything like that. And it was saying how, you know, you lose your ability to,
like dream and shit like that and I think Dr. Gad he told us that and that's when I started like really researching that and I have noticed that sometimes when I don't smoke for like a week yeah my dreams are a lot more vivid and intense and but when I'm high I just like pass out and then forgot I even fell asleep numbs your brain the same thing with alcohol you don't
When you get drunk, you rarely have dreams. And if you do, you can't remember them.

Chapter 6: What are their thoughts on the finale of 'Euphoria'?
Well, you have dreams because you tell God that I'm never going to do this again. Take this pain away and this feeling and this alcohol out of my system. I promise I won't drink anymore. And then like great American people, we lie to God all the time and we drink for the next two days. And to our doctors. Yeah. About our STDs and drug habits. But I microdose a little bit on the lithium.
And I will say my dreams... were super vivid and intense. Yeah, you've been telling me about the lithium thing, like you've been microdosing it. The dreams are not crazy per se. The first week, yes, they weren't like the happiest of dreams. They were super fucking intense. But when I say nighttime is a fucking... Like the movie for real off that shit.
Because again, it's not shutting your brain down. And as he was saying, you need REM sleep and alcohol and weed can stop from REM sleep because it's not letting your fucking brain have it. And you dream the most during REM.
Chapter 7: What predictions do they make about the future of 'Euphoria'?
Them shit is kind of crazy. That might be a whole nother world, lithium and dreaming. I want to try that. I want to do the micro dose of lithium. I think you should. Yeah, I'm going to try it.
I think you should.
Do you guys believe that your life flashes before your eyes when you die? When you die? Yeah. I hope not. I'm trying to escape that shit and not relive it. My life flashed before my eyes when the cops pulled up behind me. That's part of being black in America, Eddie. But I do think that at some point, if you feel like you're dying...
I think that your brain is so powerful that you can definitely, you know, relive a lot of moments, start to just flash in your head and things like that. Because I think in a weird way, not that I ever had a near death experience, but I think that when you feel like you're dying, I feel like your brain is just like on overload.
Like it's so much you're thinking about and, oh my God, I'm never going to be able to see this person again. I'm never going to experience this. Like, this is it. I'm dying. Like, so your brain is just all, so I do think that, When I say life flashes, I do think you're getting like a flash of like everything you've ever seen and experienced in your life at one time.
It's just like running through your mind because you feel like this is it. This is everything that I experienced and this is it. Like it's over. So I do think so. I mean, thankfully I've never had a near death experience. Well, I mean, your body naturally protects you in traumatic moments, whether that be blacking out or going into shock where you can't feel shit, physical pain.
So I'm sure when you're dying, your brain is protecting you more or less from the death that's currently happening. So yeah, I think that might be a distraction. Like, hey, check out this reel. Check out this TikTok of your life. I remember one time my mom was beating my ass and I had like an out-of-body experience. I really thought my mom was trying to kill me. Beat the DMT out of you?
Oh my God. She was letting me have it this day. I forgot what I... I think I was supposed to have a... I was like... I might have been about 11 or 10 years old. And I think I was having a birthday party that day. So I remember three of my friends from school had spent the night and everybody was getting dressed. And I think I was doing something.
I was acting up because my friends were over, kind of showing out. And my mom kept talking to me, repeating to me, hurry up, do this, do this. We got to go, we got to go. I'm bullshitting. And my mom just came in the room and just started fucking going to town on my ass. And I was trying to get under the bed to get away from her. And it's the bed scene.
