Better version of play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Yes.
Which, by the way, wasn't Taylor Swift who said that for the first time. I actually, I thought it was. I got that wrong. But hey, no one's perfect. We're pretty close, though. Listen to the Nick Dick and Paul show on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
You got Tevin Campbell queued up.
That was for sound check. I just wanted to play so Jerrica hears music. Can we talk? Hold on. Are you shitting on Tevin Campbell? I wasn't going to play Can We Talk. Listen, first of all, never shitting on the legend Tevin Campbell. The young legend. He's still young to me. He's a grown man. He's older than everybody here. I just was like, I don't want to.
I mean, we're going to talk, so we don't have to ask, can we talk? We're going to talk. That's what we do for a living. But it was a little like, Tevin? I don't want to start with Tevin. I wasn't.

Chapter 2: What happens when Rory goes to a strip club?
Just close this shit now. We got it wrong. The South is where you want to go. Yeah, L.A. is similar to New York. It's kind of what you make it and who you go with. Yeah, who you go with. You might see some really pretty girls at the strip clubs in L.A., and then some of them are cool, so you might have a good time, like how he had a good time with the strippers. But it's not...
In comparison to Atlanta, Houston, it's not the same. Atlanta and Houston is. I remember the first time I went to a strip club in Atlanta, I sounded like the opps. I walk in, I said, she's naked. Because I'm from New York. Her pussy is in my face. She spread her asshole and winked at me just now. That's how they give it up in the South. In New York, you could barely get toppers.
She picked up the chicken wing with her ass and put it in my mouth. I didn't know what to expect the first time I went to a strip club in the South. It was a whole new experience. We're seasoned well. I don't even want to know what y'all talking about. Nothing, man. This is nothing. But L.A. strip clubs can be fucking dangerous, though. When I was at Sam's, this was like four or five years ago.
They were shooting, right? Yeah, he was with me, right? Yeah, I was with you. Yo, somebody cracked a fucking Ciroc bottle over somebody's head in the section next to us. I'm saying it was so loud it shut the music off. Like, you know when your Walkman used to skip if you stepped too hard off the bus? Yeah. That Ciroc bottle, which also didn't crack, went right over his head and the music stopped.
Yeah. He skipped the CDJs with his head trauma. It was dead quiet. That Ciroc bottle was heavy, too. The bottom of that shit is like marble. Those and Grey Goose bottles don't break. Oh, you tried? That's like marble.
god you heard that i don't even want to know what the matter is i don't want to know and we exited through the fire exit at that point because we knew after this rock bottle was happening shots and we were right and not tequila no yeah i like sam sam's is uh it's one of those strip clubs too like you shouldn't know a dancer that's there or one of the bartenders yeah you shouldn't just go there trying to wing it like know some girls that's there before you go we knew a bartender that's why we were there but it was it was interesting
And I think Fat Joe and Remy Ma were hosting. Oh, that's a night. Oh, no. See, you got to lead with that, Rory. If Fat Joe and Remy Ma's in a strip club, you know it's going to be violence. Yeah. These are two of the Bronx's finest. I think all the way up, it just dropped. I think the Ciroc bottle was broken too all the way up. That was part of the aesthetic. People were hyped. Great song.
The energy was up. It makes sense to me. Somebody has to get cracked over the head with a bottle. That's how you know it's a great night. His skull was all the way up. I will tell you that much. Yeah. Ma, what did you do? Uh, I didn't do much. I went, I got some, some more stuff together in the crib. Uh, I went to a birthday dinner and that was it. You didn't pay for it? No, I didn't pay for it.
Although that's a topic we just fell into. I don't, I don't like when people invite you out to a birthday dinner and expect you to pay for your meal. Why? Well, that's why I don't do birthdays. I didn't plan on, I didn't really care to come here. Like you're going to make me leave my house, get dressed, come to your birthday dinner and I have to pay for my meal. I have food in the house.

Chapter 3: What are the rules for women entering strip clubs?
I'm paying for everything. I'm not expecting her home girls to be trying to see what they ate and divvy. That's crazy to me. I know people say I'm weird and whatever. That's crazy to me. I'm not having my girl's friends divvy up money for her birthday dinner to pay for their meal. I'm not doing that. I agree. And I'm not letting another man, even if it is just her man friend-
pay for any part of this motherfucking dinner. And that's another thing. Which is why you're a hypocrite, though. No, no, no. I was about to say, that's another thing. I started to pay for it, but I was like, I know he might feel some type of way. I would feel a way.
You see what I'm saying? What if it's like 15 of our friends, though?
You paying for all of them? I mean, if it's my homegirl's birthday dinner, like, it is what it is. You see, Maul, this is the thing. You have money. But even if I... It's not even about that. It's just certain things. It's just about having, like, You just got to have certain etiquette. It's your girl's birthday. Pay for your girl's birthday.
Don't have your girl's homegirls all pulling out eight different credit cards to slap on the table. I don't blame. I don't blame. And I completely agree with you because I don't even go to people's birthday dinners because I hate that shit. Exactly. And I only have birthday dinners when I know that there will be somebody there paying for the entire thing. Right. Completely what you're saying.
What I'm saying is I don't blame him. I blame her because she brought the wrong nigga to her birthday dinner. And that is something you be playing all year. No, she's with the wrong nigga. She didn't just bring him to the birthday dinner. Yeah, she's with the wrong nigga. Oh, well, if you know your boyfriend don't got it like that, then you don't even have a birthday dinner.
Don't have a birthday dinner. Exactly.
Yeah.
Exactly. So I was... This is all tied in. Maybe I did have an interesting weekend. Maybe. I went to another spot and I saw a homegirl of mine on a double date with her friend. So I just said, I said, hello. Like, hey, what you doing? Good to see you. Been a minute, whatever. She then texts me like 30 minutes later, like, hey, let's have a shot or whatever. I'm like, all right, cool.

Chapter 4: What age does Rory think the young man was?
I thought he was 30.
I thought he was at least 31. I think that Worldstar clip that went viral from how he got found was he was like 15 or 16. And then 1999 came out, I think he was 17. Or 18. But no, I like the way he moves. He definitely moves correctly. And a great actor. Yeah. Yeah, I kind of wish he would have stayed Inspector Deck too, but. Yeah. You know, what can you do? He had to raise Kanan.
So the, speaking of Raising Canaan, the Power Boys and the Snowfall Boys, Michael Rainey Jr. and Damson Idris are fighting over which one of them has the best show on television. When really Zendaya has the best show on television, but whatever. Power versus Snowfall. Snowfall? Yes. Power right now? Cut it off. Cut it out, man. That's not even.
From what I've seen, I'm not fully caught up on Snowfall or Power, but. Snowfall is better than Power.
Chapter 5: What shows are being compared in the Power vs. Snowfall debate?
Snowfall is better. No, the power book shit. Not... No, yeah, no. That's why I said Michael Rainey Jr., who is Tariq. He is saying... Oh, Snowfall might be better than Power, too, though.
I think people could make a case.
You said that before, but we... No, he said The Wire. That's where he was being, you know, Trump-mal. Yeah, Snowfall is better than The Wire. I'm still standing. I'm not going to go through this video. Okay, but we're talking about Snowfall versus Power, and we're talking about Power book. Tariq be saying dumb shit all the time, though.
Tariq.
What's his name, man? Michael Rainey Jr. Okay, Michael Rainey Jr. I'm not saying that gentleman says stupid shit. I say Tariq be saying stupid shit. But Tariq didn't say that.

Chapter 6: What are the key points made about the upcoming Game album?
Michael Rainey said that. He was character acting. It's called method acting. He was still Tariq. Watching Snowfall as Tariq. I got you. It might be our personal preference that Snowfall is better than Power, but Power is a very, very, very popular show. It's always our personal preference. So when people kill me for saying that, it's like, yes, it's my personal preference.
I think that the first four seasons of Snowfall were better than the first four of The Wired. Oh, look, he's starting to cop more, please. Wow. Changing the chain in the story, yeah. No, it was. I always said that. No, you didn't, mom. Because people were saying, oh, but Snowfall is only three or four seasons. And I'm like, yeah, so based off this first four...
Versus the first four of The Wire, I think the first four of Snowfall is better. This is going into five? It's only fifth now. Yeah, this is five. Nah. Okay. You only have season two. You win in season two. I think every other season was just as good, if not better, than The Wire. That was just as good. I have not caught up.
But season two is definitely... Season two of Snowfall is definitely better than season two of The Wire.
I agree with you there.
I'm not caught up too... I'm not fully done with four, but season four of The Wire is... Like Gears better. No, listen, they're both classic shows. So I don't want to seem like I'm shitting the white. Classic shows. But Snowfall, I watched the first three episodes and it kind of threw me off when it started. The first episode started because I didn't watch it when it first aired.
I let a couple episodes pile up and then I watched them. And it started with Franklin flying a plane. And I was like, all right, this is where they're about to lose me. You could tell when the show was about to go to a whole nother thing and you're like, all right, I'm done. That was your Kevin Hart headshot. Absolutely. I was like, all right.
And then it's like he flew over a part in Malibu, saw some land from out of the plane. And then once he landed, he called his boy and was like, yo, it's a land over there. It's a piece of land over there. I want that. I'm like, all right, fam. Y'all not going to do this to me. It's what they did in Fyre Fest. But... That's true. Billy did the same thing.

Chapter 7: What insights do they share about Lucky Day's new album?
Yeah, absolutely right. But then I think one of the producers or something from Snowfall came out and said, because everybody was like, who's this girl? Who's this girlfriend? Where did she come from? Whatever. And she's pregnant. And so everybody was like, what is this? And one of the producers said that there was a time jump in the writing.
So that's why it was like, because I was like, I'm not mad because people are like, oh, a black man can't fly a plane. And I'm just like, see, that's not where my head. That's not I wasn't even thinking like that. I'm just like, that's not where this thing left off at. So how are we starting with this now?
So when the producer said it was a time jump with everything in context and perspective, I was like, OK, cool. And I'm totally on board now. But when it comes to transportation, I think Tariq may have them beat. Tariq could be in Connecticut and then the Lower East Side in one hour with no car, no train, no nothing. He'll walk there. Find parking. It's like you're not from New York City.
You can't find parking that quick. Power beats snowfall and transportation. Without question. Easily. Different time. Absolutely. What else happened over the weekend? Were you able to watch the entire game? I think I have 45 minutes left.
I had to break it up a lot.
I got like an hour left. But it was really, really good though. I think this is probably one of the best Drink Champ episodes that I've seen. Did you have a lie counter? Like the little thing that every time games have a lie, it's go ding, ding. I didn't have a counter, but I laughed at a lot of this shit. I was disappointed in, not the episode. I thoroughly enjoyed the episode.
I was let down on some of the lies. You wanted them to be like crazier? I wanted them to go a little crazier. I mean, granted, Saying that the gentleman that killed Osama was listening to Red Nation while he was shooting Osama is a pretty amazing lie. That's one of the top lies I've ever heard.
Now, I think what they were trying to say is that while he was maybe getting ready at base, he was listening to it to get excited. But to say that when you're going on a covert op mission as a Navy SEAL...
to kill the highest person on the most wanted list that you just got your iPod no you I believe the radio y'all would be communicating like yo he's in here go left nobody's listening to game this room is clear yeah like I mean But I understand it. It's entertainment. I'm sure there is some truth to that guy listening to the- Of course. He's a game fan.
