The thoughts, views, and opinions expressed by this podcast, as well as its hosts, are for entertainment purposes only. I repeat, it is not serious. It is not real. No one is exposing, revealing, indicting, or telling you anything about themselves. Also, we do not encourage you to try this at home. We are trained professionals who do not have your best interests at heart or our own. Enjoy the show.
Ice 0:28
We just gonna say what time it is. Yeah.
Unknown 0:30
Okay.
Ice 0:30
You know what I mean? Yeah, we're here. We're here.
Melyssa Ford 0:34
We're here. Not even used to some type of structure. Niggas not even used to starting at the time you're supposed to start. Look, Mel looks so confused. She's like, wait, what's going on? It's too early for this.
No, well, my question is, is this it?
Joe Budden 0:50
What does that mean?
We are missing two cast members.
Joe Budden 0:53
What time is it? Your focus is in the wrong place.
I understand that.
Joe Budden 0:57
So you're ratting?
I'm not ratting. Actually, I'm kind of surprised that Ish isn't here because he's been making an effort.
Melyssa Ford 1:03
You ratted last part, too, when we was about to start. You said, where's Flatt?
I sure the fuck did because he gets special treatment.
Joe Budden 1:09
Who?
Flip.
Joe Budden 1:11
Oh. You think Flip gets special treatment?
Yes, and I know that I'm not the only one. I just, I'm the one who will speak up.
Joe Budden 1:17
So now you're speaking for other people.
Okay, I'll just speak for myself right now.
Joe Budden 1:21
Do you think that you are allowed to speak for other people?
No, not necessarily.
Joe Budden 1:27
Okay, so speak for you.
But every once in a while, people just do this. Phew, thank God she said it.
Melyssa Ford 1:33
And you think that's what's happening? Tell me why you think Flip gets special treatment.
And then we can start. He comes and goes as he pleases. He decides he wants to stay or he's gonna leave. He shows up when he wants. He never writes on the board. Like, it's endless.
Unknown 1:53
Okay.
It's endless, it's endless. This has nothing, I love him, but it's like.
Melyssa Ford 2:00
I don't know, I don't know. It's a little bit of ratting early in the pot. But let me just tell you why we're here just shooting the shit. You think everyone is beholden to the same rules?
Apparently not.
Melyssa Ford 2:15
Amen. And if it's apparently not, then would he be getting special treatment?
Okay, you're right, it is too early. Connections, synapses are not firing on all cylinders.
Ice 2:26
Have you ever worked corporate before?
Yes.
Parks 2:29
Were there people that was, how can I say it? When you work corporate, you kinda just gotta worry about you.
Okay, this isn't corporate.
Joe Budden 2:38
I think that's where some of the problems lie.
Ish 2:41
I think everywhere you got to kind of worry about you, by the way. Yeah, but it's a mistake I see up here a lot, and it's because everybody's friends with Joe.
Joe Budden 2:48
Well, no. Yeah, that's true. I could not agree more with what Ice is saying. That's true.
That may be true, but in addition to that, the fact that... You're right, worry about you. However... A lot of the chemistry up here depends on the connections that we all make. Like, we rely on the chemistry in order to produce a really, really good fucking show. So in that way, this is not a corporate structure. This is a show. This is a production that is dependent on us being here and us communicating with each other in the way that the audience expects it. Facts.
Joe Budden 3:24
Now, what we also are, we're all professionals.
Yes, and we do well whenever somebody is not here.
Joe Budden 3:30
Exactly.
We adjust. However, nobody's been given a memo that either one of those two is not coming, so they're just not here at the start time.
Joe Budden 3:39
And that's right. So now you work with the people that came to work. That's it.
Okay, y'all, listen, y'all want to win, you got it. After last week, I ain't fighting with y'all motherfuckers.
Joe Budden 3:51
I'm not trying to fight. I'm not trying to fight. You good. You good. I'm never trying to fight with you. You good.
Melyssa Ford 3:55
But I'm not trying to fight on a flip topic. I'm just letting you know that everyone here is not beholden to the same rules and regulations.
Joe Budden 4:07
Expectations also. Yeah, at all. And that's a mistake to think that.
Ish 4:13
We expect Flip to do what the fuck he wants.
Unknown 4:15
Really?
Ish 4:16
You don't?
Unknown 4:17
Kind of.
