Chapter 2: What are the hosts' thoughts on Valentine's Day?
But it's funny to see people like try to create that. Like, yo, I knew they was, I'm like, word, did you know? Did you know that? How did you know that?
How?
And this is the way we tell y'all?
No, this is what pisses me off. The, oh, they fucking narrative, whatever. That's what, when niggas be like, Maul playing around, but Damaris serious. Like Damaris so thirsty for Maul, he just won't give her no play. That pisses me off. If you want to say we mutually fucking, that's fine. Don't try to make it seem like I'm thirsty for more.
You mean consensually?
What's not mutually fucking?
There's a word for that. It rhymes with grape.
If y'all want to say that we're mutually intimate, that's whatever. But don't go and make it seem like I'm thirsty for more. Yeah, I don't like that. I don't like that. Get the fuck out of here.
I can respect that.

Chapter 3: What are the key takeaways from LaRussel's critique of Lil Wayne?
You can have your own ideas. You can think what you want to think about people. But just sprinkle in a little bit of common sense. And listen, I'm with y'all with Kelsey's bodyguard that wasn't there coming to the stand. Because that's where that came from. First of all, that's an old clip. Very old. That's the funniest part. That clip is old as fuck.
Vlad said something about it, telling people like it's old and he wasn't.
Chapter 4: How does social media influence public perception?
It was like her bodyguard that wasn't bodyguarding her at the time. And that's when they started saying like, oh, Roc Nation is paying you. And that's where this tweet came from.
But it really is scary to know that. you are on a platform with people who think like that. And then you wonder why, you know, again, to what LaRussell said, even that is kind of in this too. It's like, You know what Lil Russell may have been saying. He wasn't trying to throw shade at Wayne.
They missed the whole part where he was praising Wayne and saying Wayne is dope and one of the greatest rappers ever. They missed all of that. But this is essentially what social media is. It's people that just want to find... And clip whatever it is that may give validity to their narratives that they create. And that's what this is.
Chapter 5: What are the highlights of Brent's album 'Icon'?
It's like no matter what, like you said, even though now everybody knows that Vlad was just, you know, making people look stupid. Two things can be true. Vlad is just saying that because now they're going to say Jay called Vlad and made him say that he was just joking. Like then it turns into that. Oh, nah, he wasn't joking.
They, Roc Nation reached out to him and they threatened him and this, that, and the third.
Why do people think Jay is so involved in Roc Nation? I don't know.
That nigga is over there being a stay-at-home dad to three. I keep saying, people give Jay too much credit.
They give him way too much. We are definitely biased.
Not saying Jay-Z doesn't have power. God damn it.
and doesn't have influence yeah it's just like come on man like it's not what you people think it is it's really not some things are just exactly what they are there's no conspiracy behind a lot of things there is conspiracy is real but a lot of the times it's not a part of which i think it is um do we even want to get into all-star weekend we can yeah let's do it uh the new format cool i guess whatever um get rid of the dunk contest you know bring it to youtube
bring the dunk contest to youtube yeah youtube dunkers come on let's get oh youtube dunkers let's let's get some i don't need to watch nba players do this shit anymore and i also don't want to see someone almost break their fucking back live on tv just go to the youtubers man they brought homie up from the magic and made him a player just for one week do that again Yeah.
We're here for entertainment. I don't need to see. But it's been trending this way for a few years, though, with All-Star Saturday, the three-point contest. Three-point contest has become the highlight of All-Star Saturday. People don't even care about the dunk contest. At least they had an All-Star. But this year, even the three-point contest was a little bit lacking.

Chapter 6: What should one consider when discussing kinks in relationships?
of the NFL Pro Bowl. I don't know anybody that's ever said, yo, I'm going to see if the Pro Bowl is on. I've never heard that. I've never heard anybody say they're going to watch the Pro Bowl. I used to like their version of skills challenges.
Like the Pro Bowl, when they would do quarterbacks throwing how far they could throw the ball, receivers would catch, like there used to be fun skills day shit with the Pro Bowl, but nobody's trying to watch that. Nobody watched the Pro Bowl. And they even tried to put it at, was it the week before the Super Bowl? And then they moved it to the end so more players could be in it still tanked.
But that's different because that's such a physical sport. Like I'm not about to just go outside for play play with football. Cause we saw what like Sean Taylor did to a punter that was just, he's playing around. He was about to punt. He's like, no, it's a fake. And then Sean Taylor came in at a four to 40 speed and took his fucking head off. Yeah.
Um, yeah, I just don't know if that's the same way, but I don't know. I could do without all-star weekend now, which is, it's very sad to say. It is, man. I, you know, I think, The NBA got to find something. The format of the actual All-Star game wasn't too mad at. I wasn't mad at that either.
Different team world versus Team USA and then Team USA being split into, you know, the veterans and then a lot of the younger guys. As an American, though. Wasn't mad at that. Did you feel a little out? As an American? No, I felt proud. I cried. No, I'm glad that Stars and Stripes were in the finals. Yeah. This is getting a little ridiculous.
The fact that we even can have this many international players, that there's a squad. Nobody's a little mad that the whites are infiltrating the way they are? I'm the only one. Yeah, we sent the whites packing, though. Get them the fuck out of here. Send y'all right back to the lot. Luka, Jokic, all y'all get the fuck out of here.
Yeah.
Nah, Wim and Yana was punting fucking basketball. Wimby is clearly trying to make a claim to be the best player in the league once, you know. That international squad look, I'm actually, I cannot believe they lost. And to be fair, Luka didn't play much. Jokic didn't play much. Jokic don't give a fuck. Yeah, Giannis didn't play at all. Like, so, you know, their guys were not really playing.
But if you put that four, if you put that five and they really play, I think the international team is winning. Luka don't guard, man. Luka don't play no defense. Look who you have next to him. He doesn't need to play defense. He don't guard nobody, man. Great game. I love his game, but he don't guard nobody. I'm always going to take the best in Team USA.
