A 25-year music milestone sets the stage for a spirited, unfiltered year-end session that swings from global gratitude to personal growth and right back into the culture. We kick off with Red Dot Music’s anniversary, holiday check-ins, and a surprising listener map that stretches from New York to Singapore, turning download stats into a reminder that patience and consistency pay off. That momentum fuels a frank look at the past year—jobs chased, boundaries enforced, and the simple discipline of picking a word to live by.

The mood shifts as we grapple with stories that test empathy and judgment. A report on religious persecution in North Korea opens hard questions about faith, freedom, and what it means to hold on to hope under pressure. A decades-old parental kidnapping case—mother, daughter, new identity—forces us to weigh punishment against restoration when motive and safety blur the lines. Between these heavy beats, we come up for air with light roast and quick laughs, because sometimes the only way to carry the weight is together.

Culture and tech fire up the second half. We salute Venus Williams’ wedding and the Williams sisters’ lasting impact, then argue a fan-favorite: who had the stronger three-album run—Brandy, Monica, or Aaliyah? Expect receipts, harmonies, and friendly bias. From there, we dig into China’s AI-only clinics. Faster triage and 24/7 access sound incredible, but what about misdiagnosis, data privacy, and oversight? We pry into the tradeoffs and sketch a practical middle ground: guardrails, second opinions, and better health literacy. We land with a pocketful of “gems” for the new year—be someone’s peace, tell the truth kindly, journal when voices fail you, and keep your standards high.

If this mix of heart, humor, and hard questions hits home, tap follow, share it with a friend, and drop a review telling us your pick for the greatest R&B three-album run. Your voice helps this table grow.

With your support Table 4 Three can improve.  We are looking for donations to reach our goal of a thousand dollars.  But let's make this fun!!!  Whenever someone donates $10 or more, they will receive a shoutout on our next episode.  The person who has the highest donation can choose which Table 4 Three member gets a pie to the face...to which will be aired on our first video podcast.  As always, we love and appreciate your support.

This year was it was decent, eye-opening for a lot of things, especially um work-related, um, and some personal relationships, especially with family. Um, very eye-opening. So moving into the next year, I just have a clearer view of how I'm moving, who I'm moving with, and buckle up bitches and get out the way.

SPEAKER_08

Move, bitch. No, I absolutely hear that. This year for me has been a healing journey that it will probably carry into 2026, but um, like Shonet said, it definitely is an eye-opener. Um I've managed to not slap the shit out of people that I want to slap the shit out of.

SPEAKER_10

That's very, very good.

SPEAKER_08

Um theory works. It works, but I also realize that I need to go back. Um, yeah, like like Shawnee said, you your growth allows you to move in different areas. There's certain areas that don't serve you no purpose. So if like you're around people who want to stay stagnant, then you need to leave those people behind. And it's a hard thing sometimes, like you said, it's family, it's friends, it's you know, people around you, and sometimes you just gotta be like, boo, bitch, get out the way.

SPEAKER_09

There you go.

SPEAKER_08

Because I'm trying to do bigger and better things next year.

SPEAKER_11

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_09

I always do this thing where I create I have this word that I have to live by through the year. And uh I think my word with last year was no. I think it was I think it was patience.

SPEAKER_04

And the family's two-year-old child was sentenced to life imprisonment with their parents and being sent to a political prison.

So possession of the Bible, participation in prayer, or any form of Christian worship is treated as a crime against the state. Um and the North Korean regime views any allegiance to Christ as a threat and demands, you know, uh full support of their leadership. And this poor baby just happened to be attached to a family that owned a Bible. We gonna get a prison tattoo at three years old. They they like don't care if you're a child.

The 40-Year Parental Kidnapping Case

SPEAKER_09

So Deborah Newton was arrested.

SPEAKER_11

Who the fuck is Deborah Newton?

SPEAKER_08

He's about to tell you.

SPEAKER_11

Oh. She he said it like it was like somebody.

SPEAKER_08

I like how I skipped over that one though. I wanted that for you because I understand it. Oh my god. Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

So Debbie. Little Debbie. She uh went viral. Um after getting arrested for finally being located after 40 years from allegedly kidnapping her own daughter and moving from Kentucky to Georgia. So, and she was excuse me. She was using the alias Sharon.

SPEAKER_10

Let's try to escape. Yo.

SPEAKER_09

You need help. That's my last one for the new year, I swear. So back in 1983, Deborah disappeared with her daughter Michelle. She left her husband at the time, Joseph Newton, without a trace. So according to her husband, they had planned to move to Georgia as a family. Deborah decided to take the daughter down early, and Joseph was going to meet them down in Georgia. By the time he arrived in Georgia, she was gone. And so was his daughter. She ended up on the FBI's top eight most wanted list for parental kidnappings. Wait, is a thing called parental kidnapping?

SPEAKER_08

Yes. Oh shit. When you marry, y'all automatically have joint custody. You can't just decide to take your kids and go. Wow. Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, okay. And um Michelle was a missing person's case, and they ended up dropping it in 2000 after not finding her. Um, and then they no longer was able to reach the dad anymore either. So somehow, Crime Stoppers um they received a tip that led to Deborah's arrest after comparing the woman that identified in the tip to pictures from 1983.

SPEAKER_11

Who was keeping track since 1983? FBI. No, they said somebody called in the tip. Who remembers that?

SPEAKER_08

Like, is that that bitch from 1983? Double crime um warriors who be set focused on finding anything.

SPEAKER_09

And it came back to a 99.9% match, which that's how they proved that she was Deborah because she was gone by the name Sharon. Um and police ended up having to break the news to the daughter, Michelle, who's now a full-blown adult, um, and revealed that she was actually a missing person who was living under a different identity all those years. Um she don't know her real name. She do now. They finally was able to reunite her with her father. Oh, wow.

SPEAKER_08

So can I dig deeper into that? Because these are the questions. You got more to say? Why'd she leave? Husband was beating her ass. That's what that's what I was thinking. Because back in them days, that's how that shit was. And and it's like, what was the reason for leaving?

SPEAKER_09

Right. If y'all supposedly planned as a family to move from she said, this is my opportunity to get the hell up out of here. She gotta fuck out of there. That's that's all I thought about. And release that lady. The thing I find very interesting is how she managed to stay hidden for daughter for 40 years.

SPEAKER_11

Like Well, this is before technology and people could actually track you down. Not even. I think it's more so it wasn't a big crime, really. Um yeah, I mean, and then all she had to, it wasn't hard to change.

SPEAKER_08

Nobody gave a fuck except for that nosy ass goddamn kids. And their dog. Yes.

SPEAKER_09

So yeah, I mean, you know, just thinking about it, it took all the way until 2025 to find this woman. She, you know, she was probably seen out of the state.

SPEAKER_08

They didn't, they didn't, but that's my point.

SPEAKER_11

Like, she probably told somebody who was like, really?

SPEAKER_08

Whoever snitched thought they was getting a award a reward. Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Surprise, bitch, you got nothing.

SPEAKER_09

And so I guess my thoughts about it, because I think that that I don't know what the situation was. Right. So I don't know what the scenario was, why she left. She could have been completely out of her mind.

SPEAKER_08

Or maybe the daddy needed DNA test.

SPEAKER_09

Um, so I don't know. At that point now, does she go to jail? Like, I don't think she should. Go into jail for? Don't that or if you're the father and you missed out on 40 years of your child, or you like locked that bitch up? Is that justified?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

I mean Unless that's not his kid and that's why she ran.

SPEAKER_11

She gotta be pushing 90 at this point, right?

SPEAKER_08

No.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_11

When did she have? I mean, she didn't have the baby in 83, right? They don't say how old the daughter was, do it.

SPEAKER_09

No, it didn't say how old the baby the the daughter was at the time. Um so I'm not sure, but had to be enough.

SPEAKER_08

She didn't remember her damn daddy.

SPEAKER_09

I don't think she's 90. Yeah. I mean 80 or something. Maybe 60 something.

SPEAKER_08

Probably like our parents' age. Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

60, 70. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Yeah. I mean, what, five years in jail?

SPEAKER_08

She I don't even think she needs to go to jail. It's not even that damn serious. I mean, it is a serious, it is a serious crime, kidnapping. But I mean, if y'all ain't found her in 40 years, time served. Like look.

SPEAKER_10

Very true.

Swingers Site Meetup Turned Homicide

SPEAKER_08

All she has to deal with is the consequences of dealing with her daughter at this point. That's her, that's her punishment. Her daughter's gonna be mad as hell. Like, you kidnapped me. I didn't grow up with my dad, and now she can learn her father now before he croaks and find out he's probably a piece of shit anyway. Or maybe not. We never know.

SPEAKER_09

What if your husband took your baby and left and you didn't find them for 40 years?

SPEAKER_08

Would you just be like, I'd probably die of heartbreak. I ain't even gonna hold you. It's my babies.

SPEAKER_11

I was gonna actually use the same scenario, but what what if it you as a child to find out how that's not your real name? That's like what's deal.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, that's devastating. Well, for me it would be depending on how the life was going. If it was a shitty life and then I found out like, oh, this shit is fucking fake.

SPEAKER_09

Bitch. Then you reunite reunited with your father who's a billionaire and living this luxury lifestyle with a new family.

SPEAKER_08

And my life still ain't over. I'm gonna be like, insert now. Be the best child he ever had. Or it could be a worse, worse scenario. Yeah, I'm that's what I'm saying. I was saying, well, she could go find her dad and find out he was a piece of shit. That's why the mother left in the first place. Yeah. Or that's not her dad. True. And that's why the mom left. Because she she's like, damn it, he's gonna kill me. We gotta go.

SPEAKER_09

That's wild though. It sounds like like one of those lifetime movies.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. Yeah. Well, good luck. Yeah. That's crazy. That's sad, that's fucked up, but did y'all ever ask why? I just want to know why. Yeah. Why she did it.

SPEAKER_04

Why?

SPEAKER_08

If you did it just to do it.

SPEAKER_11

I don't know if that's the daughter saying that shit now.

SPEAKER_08

Like, why did you take me? The mother, the daughter probably the one that turned that ass in.

SPEAKER_11

Right. Yeah, because she probably had as hell.

SPEAKER_08

Like, bitch, this is my dad.

SPEAKER_11

What the f. She had a come to God moment. Let me tell you the truth. Yo, he she probably asked about her father for like 40 years.

SPEAKER_09

Where's dad? He's still at the milk. She probably just told her that her father was dead.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, he's at he's still getting milk, baby.

SPEAKER_08

She wanted to do a DNA test or something and found out that he was still alive and who her daddy was, and her name wasn't what it was.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah. I'd be really conflicted if I was the kid. I'd be really conflicted as an adult now. Like, damn. Depending on how your life was when you grew up.

SPEAKER_08

The crazy part is the mom probably always had intentions to tell her and just forgot.

SPEAKER_11

It just wasn't a priority. How you forget some shit like that? I stole you, bitch. And I just all right. Well.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. Good luck to them. Not good luck. Let that lady go. Let her deal with the consequences of dealing with the husband and daughter.

SPEAKER_11

Alright, what's next?

SPEAKER_08

Very interesting story. So a man was fatally shot after having a threesome with his gun. He was what? Fatally shot. Why every time I didn't understand? I'm gonna just start passing the shit through. No, I didn't know.

SPEAKER_11

I didn't know what you said. So that's I just wanted to clarify. So I could follow you.

SPEAKER_08

Stop Latin the devil use you.

SPEAKER_11

I just wanted to know what you said.

SPEAKER_08

I just what? A man. A man was fatally shocked after having a theresim with his girlfriend and another mayon. So the shooting occurred on November 29th at the MAA Benton Department complex. During a court hearing Wednesday, investigators testified that a woman, her boyfriend, and another man identified. Wait, what? It was not a threesome.

SPEAKER_09

You missed the whole headline she read.

SPEAKER_08

That's not a threesome. Yes.

SPEAKER_11

That's not a threesome.

SPEAKER_08

That's a train. He don't listen. That's why he keeps interrupting me, talking about what happened. Wait, wait.

SPEAKER_11

No, I I didn't I didn't hear the word fatally. So I just wanted you to clarify. But that is not a threesome. That is a train. Shut up.

SPEAKER_08

We're not gonna go on. Yeah. You sound crazy. Um, you made me lose my spot. My God. Oh. Um, testified that a woman, her boyfriend, and another man identified as 40 year old Alfonso Warner had agreed to meet after connecting on the website SDC Swingers Lifestyle. Hello, what's that website? So you can get shot? Mm-hmm. It's in Georgia. An investigator told the court the woman had previously communicated with Warner through the site and knew him by name. She reportedly asked Warner if she could bring her boyfriend, 48-year-old Arthur Gaynor, to the meetup and he agreed. So they get they met up, and I guess Warner felt some type of way. Like he was being disrespected, but they don't say what. So I'm like, did he just do that just to shoot them? Because what was the disrespect? I'm confused. Um, and that's why he shot her boyfriend in the stomach that later died of his injuries. Like it's so weird. Like you shoot him and not her.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

And you just don't even really do anything. You just like waiting around wherever to get caught.

SPEAKER_09

Instead of running into Georgia.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, like they they went and found him at a Red Roof Inn. So you just stayed there. You just stayed at a hotel, like, yeah, whatever. Come get me. Even Deborah.

SPEAKER_11

This shit real. This is a real fucking sight. But clearly, they motherfuckers got a bliss cruise.

SPEAKER_07

This is a real story.

SPEAKER_11

They got a bliss cruise. A what? SDC. They got a bliss cruise you could go on. Oh, a swingers cruise. Yeah, this is crazy. Those exist.

SPEAKER_08

Those aren't. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Swinger cruises exist.

SPEAKER_06

I've done them.

SPEAKER_08

I would say me too, but I've never been on a cruise. Um, you don't gotta be on a cruise. But it was a wild ride.

Florida Tragedy Over An NFL Game

SPEAKER_09

That's like this theme or fucking SD scene.

SPEAKER_11

You ain't gotta be on a cruise for a brow. So uh wild ride. Wow. Y'all always had troubles with my R's and W's.

SPEAKER_08

Let me let me live. So Warner was charged with murder and aggravated assault, but it's so many unanswered questions.

SPEAKER_09

Maybe he's fingering his back.

SPEAKER_08

But clearly, she said, Do you mind if my man comes? He was okay with it.

SPEAKER_11

Well, it's a swinger.

SPEAKER_09

Well, maybe when it started happening, he was like, She enjoying this a little too much. His dick is picking the mind.

SPEAKER_08

What, the add-on? Because the add-on, he got jealous of the boyfriend. Yeah. He wasn't even her being. That's true. Do say she knew his name.

SPEAKER_10

It's all a ploy. They didn't really use SDC.

SPEAKER_08

Right. They just came up with that shit.

SPEAKER_06

It's like, oh, I was on this site.

SPEAKER_08

I bet her boyfriend. She set her boyfriend up. That's crazy, though. Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

Why he fit so good?

SPEAKER_08

Hey, yo. I'm leaving. I wonder if they lost uh clients off of that uh site after this.

SPEAKER_11

Should call them.

SPEAKER_08

What?

SPEAKER_11

You should call them. Probably not.

SPEAKER_08

Why would I call them like, hey guys, requiring uh how many people you lost after this uh murder?

SPEAKER_11

None. People love swinging.

SPEAKER_08

Ain't nobody lost shit. Nixon pussy, they loving it. Oh. It's amazing. That's not McDonald's. Shut up. Oh my god. Take a pussy.

SPEAKER_09

Oh shit. That's nasty. Yuck. So I think it's only right that we, you know, end out the new year going back to Florida.

SPEAKER_08

We never left. So wait. Shout out to Florida though, because you have been table for three biggest topics.

SPEAKER_06

Keep them coming.

SPEAKER_11

Yo, that makes that makes me want to think. Go ahead. It makes you want to think. Makes me want to think of some um how many they actually listen down in Florida.

SPEAKER_09

Oh. So 47-year-old Jason Kenny ended his life hours after killing his wife and his stepdaughter Crystal on December 22nd. So they it turns out that there was an altercation between um Crystal and Jason about turning off the NFL game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Indianapolis Colts. So they had been drinking, things escalated, leading to Crystal to instruct her 12-year-old son to call 911. The boy ran to the neighbor's house after he heard the gunfire. And they found Crystal dead with the 13-year-old um girl who had been shot in the shoulder and face. But she's recovering in the hospital. Unfortunately, Crystal didn't make it. But all of this over oh, and then he ended up taking his life after um after killing her, all because of football. I think is it ever really that serious?

SPEAKER_08

Who don't go with their brother to call the police though? You just stand in there.

SPEAKER_09

Well she was shot. She was shot in the face.

SPEAKER_08

No, she wasn't shot yet when he said when she told the boy to go call the police.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, well, I mean like she didn't want to leave her mother.

SPEAKER_08

She was nosy.

SPEAKER_09

Not nosy. That's horrible.

SPEAKER_08

You would think the boy would go. I mean the girl would go on a boy stay to protect his mom.

SPEAKER_11

He was younger. By a year. So we got about eight places that listen to us in Florida. Really? Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

You really looked.

SPEAKER_04

I did. Wow.

SPEAKER_08

Tell your friends. Um that's crazy though. But how how do you think that's what I'm saying? Because I'm just thinking, like, how do you shoot a kid in the face is crazy to me?

SPEAKER_09

Well, one, they was drunk.

SPEAKER_08

That, yeah. But still.

SPEAKER_09

And emotions was raised, and he probably had money.

SPEAKER_11

He probably I was gonna say betting was probably involved. Because you you you're so emotionally invested, especially when you bet on a game.

SPEAKER_09

And then he probably followed Mr.'s Parlay picks.

SPEAKER_11

And sorry, got shot in fixed. Wait, did he survive?

SPEAKER_09

No, he killed himself.

SPEAKER_11

He killed himself?

SPEAKER_09

Yeah. It was a murder suicide. Wow.

SPEAKER_08

Because he realized what the fuck he did in that moment. Yeah. Out of rage. Yeah, we gotta do better, Florida. He probably was losing. I'm surprised he wasn't a Jaguar fan.

SPEAKER_11

Why the fuck are they watching 49ers?

SPEAKER_08

They didn't say that was his team. He could have just betted on it.

SPEAKER_11

Jaguars in the playoffs.

SPEAKER_08

Disrespect. Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_11

49ers. Fuck that team. With old ass Philip Rivers.

SPEAKER_09

Right. Could have took a bullet for more.

unknown

Right?

SPEAKER_11

Killed yourself for the 49ers. I know.

SPEAKER_08

Should have died.

SPEAKER_11

They call them bang bang gang for a reason.

SPEAKER_08

Stop. Why are you agreeing with us?

SPEAKER_11

I mean, that's what they call them. They do.

SPEAKER_08

No, the shit that we're saying, you're not denying it.

SPEAKER_11

Oh.

SPEAKER_07

Turn your mic off. Oops. What the hell? What's wrong with you? Only person I know we go with in, and he's like, that nigga, who should have fucking took a shotgun. Like, okay.

SPEAKER_09

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_10

It's the end of the year.

SPEAKER_08

Stop it. Now she's trying to get your shit off. I can let it all out now.

SPEAKER_11

Yo, next year. I'ma be different.

SPEAKER_09

I'm going into 2026 with no regrets. Regrets.

SPEAKER_07

Give you a little taste of what I got to offer.

SPEAKER_08

Why I keep giving you that voice? I don't know. That's crazy. You're drunk. I just heard it.

SPEAKER_09

It should have been like James Dean or something.

SPEAKER_06

James Dean.

SPEAKER_08

Sounded more like Jimmy. Oh. Yeah. You don't care. Jimmy Dean sausage. I knew it.

SPEAKER_11

Some good ass sausage, man.

SPEAKER_08

It is. Jimmy Dean's. Yeah, I'm talking about the ones you buy in the store, though.

SPEAKER_11

Oh, you did my you did my thing.

SPEAKER_04

Oh.

SPEAKER_11

Somebody's learning.

SPEAKER_09

That's good. That's good.

SPEAKER_11

Y'all been waiting all goddamn year. To say. It was coming. It was coming.

SPEAKER_08

Oh my God. So back into the AI conversations that we've been having throughout the year. Let's go, AI. China just opened hospitals with no doctors inside, no physicians. Oh no. Why they say doctors and physicians, it's the same thing. Um, no nurses, no human diagnosis. You walk into a booth, get scanned, and an AI tells you what's wrong. It prescribes you medicine or sends you to the hospital in minutes. This isn't this isn't a pilot. They actually are doing this like right now. That's crazy. What do you think about that?

SPEAKER_09

What is it like an urgent care or like a walk-in?

SPEAKER_08

Is it a hospital?

SPEAKER_09

Basically. Yeah. I mean, it's like going to TSA.

SPEAKER_08

Like, no, so it's b yeah, so it's basically like a um So you good going. You know, you go to the emergency room and then you gotta um check you to see what triage. Yeah. So it's an AI triage, basically, yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Hell that sounds great. You know how fast things will move when you're in an emergency and you ain't gotta sit there for 18 fucking hours waiting for somebody to come see you, you just go in there and get scanned, and you find out what the fuck's wrong?

SPEAKER_09

That sounds wonderful. But then you go to the hospital if they send you to the hospital for something that they can't treat you with, and now you still gotta wait.

SPEAKER_11

Hey, at least I know what the fuck. I'm not dying at the I'm not dying at the moment.

SPEAKER_09

Depending that the AI diagnosed you correctly. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

You go and they'd be like, the AI told me. And they'd be like, Where'd you get this information? They'd be like, WebMD, like what?

SPEAKER_11

Like, I sprained my ankle, you got colon cancer.

SPEAKER_08

Like, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_11

I I just wanted you to check my ankle, bitch.

SPEAKER_08

Because no, seriously, like, even when you go to the doctor's and they scan you, they still don't even know what the scan really means. Go in, you got gout.

SPEAKER_11

You're going blind in your left eye.

SPEAKER_06

Like, what? They told me I ain't had them out there.

SPEAKER_11

Right. And you're white. Like, what? My pigment's wrong.

SPEAKER_08

You're white.

SPEAKER_11

Like this is just dirt. Like, what the fuck?

SPEAKER_08

Yo. Damn. I don't know how I feel about that though. You wouldn't use it though?

SPEAKER_09

I don't know. All this doing is taking jobs away from people now.

SPEAKER_08

But here's my thing too. Like, I don't trust shit.

SPEAKER_09

Trust shit.

SPEAKER_08

Trust shit. No, I said trust shit. Because think about it. Like, they're scanning your whole everything with that information going.

SPEAKER_09

I'm just nervous about how an artificial intelligence is prescribing you medication. Is it? Or is it just seeing what you have?

SPEAKER_08

No, it says it prescribes you medication. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_11

So yeah, if I have a cough, I can understand if they give me cough medicine, I know it's cough medicine. I'm like, all right, cool. Like, you gotta be have common sense. You don't really have to.

SPEAKER_08

Nah, you have people that is gonna like you saying all that, but if that thing actually tells you, you could be like, well, it says it is, and AI, I trust it, you're gonna be like, yeah, let me pop these deals.

SPEAKER_11

No, like you should know the medicine you're gonna take, right?

SPEAKER_08

Nobody knows the medicine that they're taking.

SPEAKER_11

Then you're an idiot.

SPEAKER_08

You know all your medicine you take in.

SPEAKER_11

No, what I'm saying, like what I'm saying is is like they prescribed you like eye drops or some shit, and you got like a fucking fever over 108, you're not gonna be like, oh, I'm gonna take the eye drops.

SPEAKER_08

You're gonna be like, I think I need something better than this for unless it's you got an eye infection of fever, they're gonna give you the eye drops to clear it out.

SPEAKER_11

That's wait, that you that could cause a fever?

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Oh, see it. So you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_09

You don't gotta let them prescribe the wrong type of drops because it's what I'm saying. Like cereal infections.

SPEAKER_11

You should know, like, hey, these drops don't work with me, or I'm allergic to amoxicillin, or something like that. No, you can't prescribe me amoxicillin. I can't take this. You should know like the type of stuff you could take and can't take.

SPEAKER_09

Well, right? Sometimes, but there could be medications that you've never taken in your life that you don't know. Yeah, but there could be a medication that is prescribed for an eye issue that doesn't actually address your specific eye issue. I'm sure they got your medical charts.

SPEAKER_08

You don't think they got your medical charts? Think about this. There's always different um viruses, bacteria, and all new types of shit that's coming up. So they could diagnose you with one thing, and technically it's not you know, it's not for what your issue is. Well, what I'm saying, the same way with the doctors.

SPEAKER_11

Are you saying they they're gonna do this without ha knowing your medical history? I mean, I'm sure they're not just gonna walk in and scan. They gotta have your medical history or ask you for insurance or try to get your medical history from a doctor.

SPEAKER_08

Like I get that, but what I'm saying is even still, you get diagnosed with something that can't even that's probably they don't even really know because it's something new. Right. So now they're like, oh, go home and take, you know, cough syrup, you'll be fine. But it's a whole different, bigger issue.

SPEAKER_11

You do have an option to get a second opinion. So if you just go home and take the shit.

SPEAKER_08

So my thing is basically just go to the damn doctor. Right. I mean, either or I mean So I don't know. That's why that's the thing with the whole air. Oh, I don't know. I'll give it a try. So it's so to go deeper in it. It says you step inside the booth, the system scans your body, vital signs, temperature, heart rate, blood, oxygen, facial, and visual cues, all in minutes. Um, your input, you input your symptoms. So you're basically telling them what your problems are. Which that's so it's scanning you doesn't mean Google Doctor.

SPEAKER_11

So well, I mean, I got a headache. It's saying like I got a headache, uh I got a f may have a fever, I got a fever.

SPEAKER_08

Well, it's taking your temperature and so you tell them like those type of things, and it would create So it says, so you input your symptoms, the AI analyzes the data, runs diagnostic models, identifies common illnesses, decides the next steps. No human review required.

SPEAKER_04

Oh.

SPEAKER_08

So within minutes, you get a diagnosis, a treatment recommendation, an instant prescription, or a referral to a hospital if needed. Fast, direct, automated. So um, so it says each kiosk includes automated drug dispensers, which is crazy because now you're gonna have all these drug addicts coming in and talking about this is my symptoms to get drugs. I'm sure there's restrictions for over-the-counter medications, not if they sit in there saying what Yeah, if I go in and say that I'm having a severe migraine, I'm sure they're not. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something that I've learned.

SPEAKER_09

Well, if I go in saying I have a severe migraine and they prescribe me this migraine medication that I am addicted to because there's certain medications for migraines that are narcotics and that people are actually addicted to.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

But you're not a you're not a uh because you got insurance, you you can do all that, but I'm saying like nobody just random.

SPEAKER_08

So it says this kiosks aren't in labs, they're placed in metro stations, shopping centers, office hubs, rural and underserved areas. So technically underserved areas, most of these people probably don't even have insurance. Right.

SPEAKER_11

So I gotta see how like I don't know how actually like how the process works as far as if you need insurance, you got insurance. I'm sure it's not going to just deal out drugs to any random person.

SPEAKER_08

I I understand what they're doing. It's cutting out emergency room. Well, not really. It's cutting out urgent care visits and people making like I was just talking about this the other day.

SPEAKER_09

Because that's backwards, because the reason that they created urgent cares was the emergency room usage because people overuse the emergency room as doctors. For small things, yeah. That's not what it's meant for.

SPEAKER_04

Yep.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

I don't know. My last my last uh emergency room visit, I didn't like. I didn't like it. I don't I didn't it it's just it was just a painstaking process, and I was with my child, and I wanted to find out what was wrong if if something serious has to happen, because he had a concussion. I'd never been in a concussion before. I never knew what happens with a concussion. That you're dealing with somebody's brain, you know what I'm saying? And they just had him sitting there. So like if I could get to some, I I need fast answers. I need something we can I can do something with quickly. An emergency room supposed to do that, but I like you said it's overcrowded with minor small stuff, and it's like I don't think that as far as like a concussion protocol, I get it.

SPEAKER_08

I can't hear you. Sorry. As far as a concussion protocol with like, would you really consider going to a AI kiosk though?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. I would uh they can scan you, get all your vital signs, get all the stuff like they did in the hospital immediately, and then and then give you uh uh uh at least uh uh at least some kind of result saying, hey, this is your next step.

SPEAKER_08

Right. So then they send you to the hospital, you go to the hospital and you're still waiting.

SPEAKER_11

I'm not in an emergency room.

SPEAKER_08

You would be, because that's where you would go. You're not gonna go directly to the hospital. Yeah, yeah, they send you to the hospital, you give them what they're gonna do. Yeah, but I don't know if it's and they're gonna make you wait either way. We don't know that. If they're understaffed, they're gonna make you wait.

SPEAKER_11

This is supposed to help move things along, right? So I we don't know if it's gonna you're gonna get there.

SPEAKER_08

It helps to move things along. It's in areas where it's not uh ready available health care. Yes, yeah. That's that's what it is.

SPEAKER_11

Oh, I'm I'm with it. So I'm with it. I I I I I wanna see how the process works. I would rather I you know, I don't really know how it works just by that.

SPEAKER_08

I'm not technically knocking it or nothing. I'm just saying, like, it's just weird to me.

SPEAKER_11

It's new, it's gonna be weird to anybody.

SPEAKER_09

I'm just nervous because healthcare in itself is a very tricky uh realm to be in. And you're automatically a guinea pig anyway when you're dealing with healthcare. Now you're dealing with An artificial healthcare professional. Like if a woman went into that thing because they was having chest pains, that AI is going to now ask whatever questions or do whatever scan and um prescribe them something that it thinks going on.

SPEAKER_11

It may not prescribe them anything.

SPEAKER_09

But the AI is not necessarily gonna know that for women when you're having chest pains, it could be gas or it could be a heart attack. It could it's different. AI could probably decipher that. It probably could we don't know AI gonna say you got gas.

SPEAKER_11

It could probably decipher that. If it's gonna go through and and analyze certain symptoms and certain things, because you gotta tell it certain things. You gotta give it information. Right. And it's gonna ask you deeper questions because it's gonna probably ask you questions to kind of get to the bottom, like just like a doctor would do. A doctor, you would you could say you have chest pains to a doctor and they will have follow-up questions to find out what type of chest pains. I'm sure that's what the AI would do.

SPEAKER_08

Okay, but chest pains, they just automatically strap you to a machine. Yes.

unknown

Right.

They don't ask you shit. So they ask you why you're on the machine, but not before. Yeah, but after they they strap you in. I'm not going to no kiosk with no chest pains. I'm gonna say that. That's that would that's just crazy.

SPEAKER_11

Right.

SPEAKER_09

I'm not I would I wouldn't say you should have to, but some people can. If you're in an underserved population and this is the closest. Some people who don't understand that. Right.

SPEAKER_08

It's not saying that AI isn't gonna be efficient with what they're doing. It's just it's a lot of people are uncomfortable with news. It's a lot of shaky stuff. So it's like, okay, just make the awareness of like this isn't because some people will be like, oh, this is great. This is all I have to do. This is not the one-stop shop. Right. Right. Correct. That's that's the thing with me, with the AI thing. And some people don't look at it that way.

SPEAKER_09

Right. People go to school for years for this stuff.

SPEAKER_11

And they still probably are horrible. They're horrible doctors who've been going to school for years. You probably give it away. It's horrible everything. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

You have horrible AI, horrible people, horrible whatever. So the point is.

SPEAKER_11

And there's probably good doctors and probably good AI. No, we know that.

SPEAKER_08

That's my point.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Like they're making it seem like, oh, this is like it. Like, no.

SPEAKER_09

Because some people a lot of people are going to be able to do that.

Who You Got: Brandy, Monica, Aaliyah

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, that's an it's just always everybody needs to be cautious. I'm not denying it. I'm just putting my opinion out there to people who are going to think like, oh, this is like you said, good one-stop shop. No, be aware.

SPEAKER_11

So this is where where is this again?

SPEAKER_08

Is this in China?

SPEAKER_11

And this is actually up open and um functioning.

SPEAKER_08

Yes. They said it is live, this is live healthcare, like right now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

I want to follow that. I want to follow that story.

SPEAKER_09

I was very curious how an AI can prescribe you a prescription.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. And it runs 24-7, they say.

SPEAKER_11

I I'll I'm I'll I want to do some research. I gotta do some research. I want to do some research. And then the next episode I'm I want to get a little bit deeper. I want to see how that works.

SPEAKER_09

Like what mechanisms are in place that approves an artificial intelligence to prescribe medication. You know, surveys that doctors give you, they probably do stuff like that. No, that's not what I mean. There are regulations, there are laws. There you have to be a certain type of provider to be able to prescribe medication.

SPEAKER_11

Or or it's just probably prescribing you something over the counter, something like that.

SPEAKER_09

Something like not like you got which those um That's no different than you going and the nurse prescribing you cough medicine.

SPEAKER_11

Right.

SPEAKER_09

They can't.

SPEAKER_11

A doctor would have to do that.

SPEAKER_09

Correct. So how is an artificial program gonna do it? And that be legal.

SPEAKER_11

It's legal over there.

SPEAKER_09

That's what I'm saying. That's a bit scary. But that's China. They they that's China. They do things. I mean, uh I don't know. Uh that's a bit scary to me.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

I guess it works for them because they overpopulated anyway.

SPEAKER_01

Home rulers.

SPEAKER_08

Yes. What is that supposed to be? Population control? Well, China's been doing population control for years. It's in history. It is.

SPEAKER_11

History stated it they didn't do it the the humane way back then.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, so now it makes so now it makes you wonder about prescribe where the hell you won't.

SPEAKER_11

Oh shit. Not in Ho Xing Ming. Oh my god. Stop it. What they listen.

SPEAKER_08

Into your information. I have been dealing with this chronic pain, and I need to end it. Prescription prescribed.

SPEAKER_11

I'm sure it doesn't work like that. We don't know. Well, you can't assume that way. You can't assume that way either. Like I can. That's putting a narrative out there as if it doesn't work properly. We don't know.

SPEAKER_08

I know that. So like So I'ma still say what I want to say.

SPEAKER_11

And I'm just saying what I'm saying. I'm not either. I'm just saying. You're putting your opinion out there, and I'm just counteracting with my opinion. That's it. That's all I'm doing.

SPEAKER_09

Discretic, man. Well, good luck to them. I'm just saying.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, I just thought that was a good thing.

SPEAKER_09

I think the world is getting a little too comfortable, a little too quickly with this AI shit. Is it quickly? Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

AI's been around for a while.

SPEAKER_09

Not this. Oh, the hospital type. The way that it has progressed into other areas of but you ain't see this coming. You ain't see this coming at all.

SPEAKER_11

Like it's it was it was destined to get there.

SPEAKER_09

Only because people are lazy. Wally. I mean, really. But um can we do a quick uh moment of silence for uh Carl Carlton, RB singer?

SPEAKER_07

Why did you let him finish? I didn't even throw it again.

SPEAKER_11

Like that's crazy a follow-up too. Wait, wait, wait, then it was a crazy follow-up to the AI thing. Like, that's crazy. We get above it. Like the the the the next the next segment is like death. Death right after the that is crazy.

SPEAKER_09

Because he went to an AI machine. So um That's where I went.

SPEAKER_11

That's why I said that.

SPEAKER_09

Carl Carlton recently just passed.

SPEAKER_11

Wait, his name is Carl Carlton.

SPEAKER_09

Just as fine. She can be. I I literally thought that was Stevie.

SPEAKER_10

Nah, get the fuck out of here. That's crazy. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_09

So we gotta.

SPEAKER_11

This is not Stevie. I thought it was.

SPEAKER_09

Maybe Stevie did a instrument.

SPEAKER_11

Yo, he put he probably did.

Maybe he did. Oh, this is a bad man of a demonic.

SPEAKER_11

Oh, he must be the writer. Or he must be the water.

SPEAKER_08

He's a singer.

SPEAKER_11

No, I'm saying, like he wrote he wrote it and sung it. Yeah, yeah. This is the original. He did Stevie did. Stevie did a stuff cover.

SPEAKER_09

Which is funny how you see how that works with the where You don't know the original? The original doesn't make it as big as look at that part.

SPEAKER_11

Get the fuck out of here.

SPEAKER_08

Oh wait. She's a bad manager. I do think Stevie did do a cover. Yes. Yeah. Because he ain't singing like how I heard it. Right.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah. Stevie had a little more um twang. So we got a Who You Got.

SPEAKER_08

Who the fuck you gang? Okay.

SPEAKER_09

So we have three artists.

unknown

Three.

SPEAKER_09

In the RB world. In the RB world. We have Brandy. Brandy. We have Monica. Monica. And we have Aaliyah.

SPEAKER_06

Aliyah.

SPEAKER_09

And we have their first three albums of each artist. And who had the best three album run? So you have Brandy with her um Stevie did not do any of the uh cover for the song.

SPEAKER_08

That was that was on him. Get out of here.

SPEAKER_09

He sounded so close to Stevie.

SPEAKER_08

I know.

SPEAKER_10

Holy shit.

SPEAKER_08

Really? Not a remix with him at all? Nothing?

SPEAKER_10

Nothing.

SPEAKER_08

Jeez. That's wow.

SPEAKER_10

Okay. Alright, sorry.

SPEAKER_08

Wow.

SPEAKER_10

Alright, so we have a uh That's interesting.

SPEAKER_08

That is very, very interesting. Yeah. Because I could have sworn that was Stevie.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah. That that's wow. It wasn't Stevie. It was Stevie.

SPEAKER_08

It was Carl Stevie Carlton. Alright, back to who the hell you got.

SPEAKER_09

So you got Brandy. I don't know if you was listening, Mr. But um so we got Brandy, Monica, and Aaliyah.

SPEAKER_01

Brandy, Monica, and Aaliyah. Okay.

SPEAKER_09

They're each of them, their first three um albums, who had the greatest three album streak when they um first dropped. So we have Brandy's first album, which was entitled Brandy. And then Never Say Never, and then Full Moon. And then we have Monica's first three, which was Monica. It was um The Boy Is Mine was the second one. And then After the Storm was the third. Yeah, it's not fake out. And then Aaliyah, we have AJ Nothing But a Number. She made it to three albums. One in a Million. Yeah. And Aaliyah was her last album. Yeah, it's always self-named. Aaliyah was the best album.

SPEAKER_08

Who had the best three albums streak coming? That's a hard fucking thing. And and the only reason why for me, because for each artist, I know who y'all. No, no, no, no, no. So two of the albums, I can say, yes, I know them shits front to back on each uh artist. And then one of those albums ain't it for me. So like I'll go with Brandy, right? I know who's not on y'all list. So Brandy, Brandy, um, self-titled in Full Moon, right? And some songs on the middle one. Not all, not the whole album for me. Okay. And then Monica's first album wasn't just some songs on there for me.

SPEAKER_01

That shows fly to me.

SPEAKER_08

I knew age ain't nothing but a number. We all did when Aaliyah first came out. But that wasn't a hot album for me. Um, but Aaliyah and One in a Million was was the album. But if I'm gonna pick anybody and I'm gonna be very, very biased. This album's gonna be by.

SPEAKER_11

Monica. I I knew that was I knew Aaliyah wasn't gonna make it, and Brandy wasn't gonna make it.

SPEAKER_08

I don't don't mess with me because I teetered back and forth between Monica and Brandy because remember, I was a Brandy fan way before I was Monica.

SPEAKER_11

Brandy had a three-year three album. I I liked hers.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, I I'm really torn with this.

SPEAKER_11

Me too. Because I like Brandy and I like Monica's first album.

SPEAKER_09

Brandy's first album for me? Shit was fire. You know that from front to back. Shit is fire.

SPEAKER_08

I could probably do that album with Album.

SPEAKER_09

Shit is fire. Yeah. Now I have to agree with Nene, because Monica's first album, I do know all of the songs, but I like the entire albums of her second and her third album. Yep. Those were both fire for me. So it makes it look difficult. It's a tie between the big thing. If I said you teeter between and I have the two of them. Which one I listen to more?

SPEAKER_01

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_08

And you know it for me? It's Monica. Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

You listen to that way more.

SPEAKER_08

So I I listen to Monica and Brandy equally. I do. And the only reason why is because Brandy's first album is my shit.

SPEAKER_09

From Would you say you listen to every Brandy song on each of those albums? On her album.

SPEAKER_08

The same as Monica? Her self-titled the Brandy, her first album? Yes. Her first album is After the Storm for Me. The uh full moon album? No. No. No.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_08

Like, I've listened to that whole album and I like it, but the only album I will play Brandy's front to back is her first album. Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

I started one with Aaliyah. No, I started I started as a Brandy fan. I listened to Brandy's first album, like front to back. I was I was really into RB back then. Like really. And then Monica came out and I was like, this bitch can sang. Like she could she could blow. Yeah. After those albums, I didn't listen to their album ever again. Uh huh. So to me, it's it's the self-named album, and which one was better to me? Brandy.

SPEAKER_09

Okay.

SPEAKER_11

If I have to compare their first first albums, I'm giving it to Brandy. Okay. If I I I I can't do a three-album run because three album run, full moon is fire. I play a lot of records off that. Uh I think I stopped listening to Monica after The Boy is Mine, and I really didn't listen to the album.

SPEAKER_08

That's when them albums got real fire. Yeah. I'm sorry. After the storm took me.

SPEAKER_11

I can't I can't get on the Monica train because I I stopped listening to Monica albums. I listened to her records.

SPEAKER_09

Monica's Boy is Mine album had so many hits off that album. You had The First Night, you had Cross the Room, you had Um Street Symphony, you had Um Missy was all over that, right? Missy was all over that. Um The one with 112.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. What was the name of that?

SPEAKER_09

Um my God.

SPEAKER_08

What's the name of that one?

SPEAKER_09

Mm-hmm. Then you got For You I Will. You got Um Like She had Bangers. I mean, The Boy's Mind was on that album. That was the Grammy winning song for her.

SPEAKER_08

But that's when it started. Like for me, that's when Monica picked up. I noticed Monica. I was like, oh, who this bitch? Like, okay, okay. But then when after the storm came out, it was a rap. Now, I will say this. If Aaliyah was still alive and the her self-acclaim took off and she kept making shit like this, what? Then it would it would have definitely been uh uh a real questionable thing for me as who who I really fucking rocked with.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, Aaliyah's self-name album. That shit was fire. Yeah, yeah. I still listen to that shit. I do too. I do too. Yeah. That was a hard one for me though.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah. They picked the right three people.

SPEAKER_09

Because I really was leaning towards um heavily on Brandy. Me too.

SPEAKER_08

Me too.

Diddy, Power, And Industry Reckonings

SPEAKER_11

And then I had to think about it like when it when this came out, when this shit came out, I ain't never listened to her albums, but this shit was fire. Four-page letter. Come on now. Anyway.

SPEAKER_08

But if you really think about it though, like that first album of Elias, although it was like new, if you Timbalyn was just if you go back and listen to it. Fire. Nah.

SPEAKER_11

I think so.

SPEAKER_08

Nah.

SPEAKER_11

That's that's when Timbalyn was just st just starting. He came, he was coming out with sounds, never nobody ever heard of.

SPEAKER_08

The AJ Nothing But a Number album or One in a Million.

SPEAKER_11

One in a Million.

SPEAKER_08

Oh no, I'm talking about AJ Nothing But a Number.

SPEAKER_11

Her first one?

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Uh uh.

SPEAKER_08

You go back and listen to that one, you'd be like, This is what I like? Like, it's still cut the main songs that you know off of that album. But no, she kicked up from One in a Million go, and then when she did her self-acclaimed one, that shit was fire. Yeah.

SPEAKER_09

Like, I'm sorry. When Monica redid Misty.

SPEAKER_11

Y'all can't do the Who You Got with Monica. Y'all gotta stop doing Who You Got with Monica.

SPEAKER_09

I didn't do it. I didn't put it together.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, you keep finding the Who You Got with Monica. With Monica and We already know y'all gonna pick Monica.

SPEAKER_08

Not true, because I really was about to pick Brandy because But you didn't. No, because two of your body is. No, two of Monica's album. I honestly was about to go with Aaliyah, but then remembering age ain't nothing but a number threw me off. And I was like, well, I ain't really I know the songs on there, but I wouldn't say that that's my fucking album. So that's why I didn't go with her. But I was literally like, Aaliyah was a shit. Aaliyah was a shit. I was upset when she died.

SPEAKER_09

I had to think of one who I listened to more in rotation, because I listened to both Brandy and Monica in rotation heavily, but I also had to put in there for me that really decided it was how many of the songs from those albums of each of them. Would you really listen to? And I could actually sing word for word. And I can do that with both of those Monica albums, and I can do that for the majority of the full moon and the majority of the first Brandy. But there's a couple songs I don't know like that word for word.

SPEAKER_08

Let me tell you something. That first brandy album, and I'm surprised I didn't pick Bandy, but only Brandy.

SPEAKER_11

Like if you would crazy if you would have came with like with uh who got who you got with like a male solo group from back then, like a Joe to see Drew Hill or like a 112 or uh I don't know, N Sync or something.

SPEAKER_08

Can InSync even be in that kind of group? It would be for him, it wouldn't be for me.

SPEAKER_09

So NSYNC will be pop though, yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah so Joe Joe to see Drew Hill and whatever other and 112. If you put three albums back to back to back, who would get it? Joe Dice for me. Joe Dicey. Joe Dice had that shit locked down. It'll be Joe Dice for me. Oh my god. All three of the first albums. They knocked it out of the car. And you know. Wait, was it them? Who? What group did Diddy help put on? What male group was it?

SPEAKER_08

It was Jodice, I thought.

SPEAKER_11

Was it Jodice? No, it wasn't Jodice. No, it wasn't Jodice. It wasn't? No, the the the male from the documentary. What group was it?

SPEAKER_08

You sure it wasn't because it wasn't Joe C messes, he did with Mary. That's how he found Mary, ain't it?

SPEAKER_11

It was Jodice.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, because she was their backup singer.

SPEAKER_09

Why I keep confusing them with um What's that other group? No way. I don't remember it being Jodice. Me neither.

SPEAKER_08

In the doc, right? Nah, was it? Now y'all gonna make me second guess myself and go back and look. But I could have sworn it was Jodice. I could have sworn. I could have sworn it was Jodice, but I could be wrong. That was one of their first groups that he signed.

SPEAKER_11

Because we was like, he got married, Mary J, and then we was like, oh, we see why they were so close, because there was it was it had to be Jodice.

SPEAKER_08

Thank you, because he told them how to dress.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Yeah. We wat I I just watched the second episode.

SPEAKER_09

Oh, did you?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, it I gotta take those in like spurts. Yeah. I can't I can't watch all those episodes because that second episode was a lot of it. I I don't mean to go off in a tangent here, but look.

SPEAKER_08

That we a podcast, we do whatever the fuck we want.

SPEAKER_11

Yo the way things was explained. At first I was like, oh, that's an opinion. You can't really say that. That's an opinion. You think you thought all that stuff. Like you saying the shit that you're saying about Diddy back then and the way you're forming it, it's it's it's an opinion. It's not fact. You're not saying any fact. However, when the FBI people got into it, and I don't even know if that was a real FBI agent, and but I remember the hip-hop task force. I remember there was a thing about that. As a matter of fact, Dave Chappelle just talked about it in his new special. But I remember hearing about a hip hop task force that was put into place before uh the East Coast, West Coast, Diddy and Allemagne, and it was looking into Diddy. So when he was talking, and then they had actual film of people's how things was lining up with factual footage and audio, and well, who knows? It could be doctor, I don't know. But just how things just started falling and how he used his death, Biggie's death, to launch his artistry. And and I when I was a kid and I seen him on the stage doing the the the farewell and song about Biggie, and I was like, I I didn't understand it then. Like, why is he doing it? He just died.

SPEAKER_08

Why are you dancing on stage and saying like he was celebrating, like there was no empathy, no, no nothing.

SPEAKER_11

Like and dude, Keefe D was on tape saying that he fucking got paid half a million dollars from Diddy to take them niggas out, yeah. Which everybody speculated, but to hear it from his voice, and then he kind of recanted, whatever, because he tried to because he won't get killed, but he said he knew it. And it was like, holy shit, and just how everything lined up, it was like, now it makes sense. I'm not of course I still don't know what happened, but separating the fact from the opinions, the facts line up. There seemed to be more fact than opinion. Yeah, yeah. Well, yeah, well, what I'm what I mean is by what certain people were saying certain things. I think they did that on purpose to try to drown out a little bit of the fact. But maybe when you when you cipher through all the bullshit and hear the facts and see the facts and kind of see how things line up and then relive the relive what you've been like going through back in the day, like when I was happened, it is like holy shit.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, because listening to a lot of the people that was interviewed, and I was trying to decipher, like, okay, how many of y'all just really talking shit? Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, like your day now because you hate the movie.

SPEAKER_08

Did you feel that way about Tupac Cousin? Because it was almost for me when I watched it, I almost was like, we really didn't need your your input at all. Like you just like not that a not that a lot of people.

SPEAKER_09

He might not be telling the truth and stuff right or or embellished, but I just believe that a lot of that is it's factual.

SPEAKER_11

It was just like y'all, y'all ain't believe us when we were saying it.

SPEAKER_08

I believe the dude, who was the dude that was working with him and he said he got fired because he wouldn't change the document. Yeah, yeah. I believe him. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

He seemed everybody, right?

SPEAKER_11

100%. He's like, he seems like the why would I even have to lie about this shit? Like, I I was a part of it. I had 25% stake in this, and I had to give it up. Right. And it's like, you could have said no, that was your boy, but back then, it's believable that you could go in these record companies with bats.

SPEAKER_08

Did y'all become a big thing? Ice Cube did that shit. Y'all see the body language of everybody, though.

unknown

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_08

When they do the actual footage of Diddy and the people around him and stuff, even Biggie was uncomfortable around him. Yo, there was an interview that was Mary on stage. There was an interview. Yo. You saw how stiff and just uncomfortable everybody looked. Why Mary look like that? Like, just like, no, I don't want to be here, nigga. You made me be here.

SPEAKER_11

Hey, yo, when I first seen, when I seen the original footage of Biggie sitting there saying, yo, I feel like people were out to get me. I feel like, you know, like people are out here trying to kill me. Right? And I'm thinking when I first seen it originally, when I first seen it when I was a kid, I was like, damn, this East Coast, West Coast shit is crazy. Uh-huh. And I just thought it was like because he's in the West, like, why even out in Cali type of shit, to realize he wasn't talking about them.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

He was talking about Diddy.

SPEAKER_08

You know what's funny in that sense. That's my opinion.

SPEAKER_11

That's my opinion. But when they played. He was talking about his circle. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

That's what I was gonna say. When they played that clip back then, I was thinking Diddy.

SPEAKER_09

Really?

SPEAKER_08

It was I remember I told y'all before it was just something about him I just didn't like, something just off. I've never liked Puff Daddy, P. Diddy, Brother Love, nothing. Something about him just was always off. And I just be like, why niggas want to work for this nigga?

SPEAKER_11

Like it was a running joke. It was weird. It was a running joke when I was doing music. It's like, yo, we we'll sign with anybody but Diddy.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

Because it's almost like we already know what that is. Because nobody, we like everybody outside, kind of felt like his artist wasn't getting paid anyway. Like wasn't. So to find out that shit was true, yeah, and how he was changing the game and not and and it makes sense now that Suge Knight goes up there, is like, if you don't want your executive producer all in the videos, and I was like, yo, that's you hating, but now it's like, oh I mean, the simple fact that we had suspicions.

SPEAKER_09

So if you think of like 13. If you think of before back then when we're that age, and we had suspicions of things, but we didn't have an inside look right of things at that time because that just wasn't the thing. Right. But then it was broadcast to a certain extent when making the band came out exactly who the fuck he was and how he treated people, and it was just like, oh, it's Diddy, it's funny. He made him walk to he was putting these motherfuckers too hell. Yeah. Yo, that is crazy.

SPEAKER_08

It was a power trip, and that brings us back to today when we said he don't fucking got too big for his britches, and somebody said, Let me humble you.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Yo, every interview that they did with Diddy back then, I was I was I was talking to my wife, right? And I was like, yo, there's a thing where when you get um when when people you come in and get questioned, interrogation. Interrogation. When you get interrogations, interrogations look for more than like other things. They look at body language, they look at all the non-verbal cues to kind of figure out you're not kind of telling the truth. It's and and it's you don't never know that you're doing it, but it's stuff stuff like that. And one of the biggest things they said, they said, when you lie, you instinctively look down into the right. And they and they and then when you're looking for the truth, you look up into the left. And he said, the reason why you do that is because when you look to the right, though, and they're saying you're kind of trying to connect to the right side of your brain, which is your creative side, to think of something creative to lie about. And then when you look to your left, it's like you're that's the intelligent side of your brain. So when you're trying to search for the truth, that you're kind of up there, kind of looking for the truth, because that's your intelligent. Every interview with him, he talks soft in his like baby voice. And then we get asked the question, he always looked down into the right. Always. Every last time. Were you responsible for the killing and things? He looked down and just like, no, no. And it's like, oh my god, you don't see his body language.

SPEAKER_08

He doesn't even have to like it. He's he's monotone.

SPEAKER_11

Everything. Like your man just died, and he's nothing. And he he no emotions, no crying, no, that's my man. Which one is it?

SPEAKER_08

Is it psychopath or sociopath or both? Where they fake their emotions. Like they, it is, I thought so. Yeah, sociopath, they will fake, they do their best to fake their emotions, or what they call it, imitate people, people who have real emotions.

SPEAKER_11

Like the FBI said uh Biggie's mom don't fuck with them either. I was like, oh shit.

SPEAKER_08

And then when she came out and said she didn't really like him.

SPEAKER_11

And then he's on stage, like, thank you for Biggie's mom. He gave birth. And she was just like, that's a true island woman, because they'll just give you that fake ass, ha ha ha. Yeah, just because I'm on TV, bitch.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, I after watching, because I watched the whole thing. Oh, I yeah, I got you on. I was like, I believe He did it 97% of this entire documentary. Whereas, I don't know if you guys watched the Irv Gotti one.

SPEAKER_06

No.

SPEAKER_09

Nah. So the Irv Gotti one I don't know, he made me cringe too much for me to even want to watch it. The majority of the interviews for that one, I'm not even talking about Irv's talking. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The people that was interviewed, like the other um singers and whatever in the industry, you could tell this was a formulated attack against Ashanti.

SPEAKER_10

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_09

And like he grabbed everyone in the industry that had some sort of issue with Ashanti to speak negatively about her. And so it was like, okay. So how is this an Irv Gotti documentary if you're just talking about Ashanti? But you could tell this is all designed to make it destroy her. Yeah. And for these people to get their feelings out about what they felt about her. Whereas the Diddy one, I went into it thinking that that's what this was gonna be because these things was behind.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, that first episode didn't. First episode made it seem crazy because the information or what was given was kind of weird.

SPEAKER_11

It was kind of paying a narrative like a little bit.

SPEAKER_08

It was like, but why do why say this and then just skip to something else? Like, where's the in-between? It just it was too skippy for me.

SPEAKER_11

So that's why I was like, The thing that bothered me, I'm not gonna say one of the things that bothered me the most was the fact that all of these people, well-known people in the industry, the fact that they knew all of this stuff was going on and just I mean, okay, to pre to preface that though, if you're in a situation and know this man could pay to get you knocked off, would you? I mean, in that time.

SPEAKER_09

I don't even mean like the killing stuff. But even he was a big asshole. Even just knowing that like these people, some of these people sat around and watched Cassie just get her ass meeting.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, but how but how can you how can you bring down quote unquote a god if nobody believes that a god can do that?

SPEAKER_08

I don't know what I'm saying. Especially back in that time, even still, but it's it's it it depends on people's actual morals. You have people who are gonna have hero tendencies and display.

Year-End Gems And Tough Love

SPEAKER_09

Because even the sex worker, even they kept um that was on regular rotation with them, yeah. And Diddy ended up beating her in front of him, and he jumped up and was like, yo, what the fuck you doing? And Diddy just turned to him and was like, You ain't gonna do nothing. And he didn't.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah. Money and greed, money and greed is always he has the money.

SPEAKER_08

And now he's suing Cassie. Who the the sex worker?

SPEAKER_11

They got to him. Yeah, so I'm trying to tell you. When you when you are when you get that. When you ask powerful as you are, because he he had he had way too much power way too early. He got humbled. Yeah, way too early. Like with that type of power, niggas can't have to be able to do that. How can you how can you even people have tried and yeah, like even the dude who sued him for his 25% stake, the fucking court said he did it too late. And it's like, how is that too late? He ain't go to the right people, like, or he might have had some people in his pocket because he he's he's that's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_08

He ain't go to the right people. Yeah, like you like if it was in the situation now, because I don't know when he went, was it like before all of this shit happened he um tried to sue? Yeah, like when he had to give up his fucking So here's my thing, like so if you got like how this shit playing out, you know there's people in a position to because look what they doing to him now. Yeah, I'd have been like, well, who these people hook me up? So this is what I want, and I'll give you all the information you need.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, if you want me on the document, I need to get my right.

SPEAKER_08

You know what I'm saying? See if I can get my losses. Nah, if you're gonna put your life in danger, make it work for you.

SPEAKER_09

I guess what I mean more is just like why nobody spoke up, really. Yeah. Or more people spoke up. So just the fact of so like even back then, we knew Mary was getting her ass beat. Yeah. And it was just the running thing. Yeah. We knew that um, we knew that uh oh, wait, no.

SPEAKER_08

We ain't going that far back, sir.

SPEAKER_11

Stop it. It was a trend since then.

SPEAKER_08

We talk about people in the Diddy committee.

SPEAKER_09

We knew Aaliyah was a minority. Diddy committee? We knew Aaliyah was a minor and was married to R. Kelly, and that that's not okay. All of these people, powerful people, people in the industry, what have you, all knew these things was going on the same way we knew it was going on and we worked.

SPEAKER_08

We had no proof. Epstein files. We had no proof. We had no proof that uh R. Kelly was married to Aaliyah.

SPEAKER_11

We had no proof. I mean, as far as I'm talking about. Epstein files, people getting their ass beats and shit like that. It was just hearsay because nobody was actually, even if they was trying to come out, right? They'll drop a new record. We'd love the record and forget about everything else. That's just how we was kind of programmed.

SPEAKER_08

But outside of us, though. Yeah. But again, then again, it ain't no different money. But if you think about it, also, it ain't no different than you having a friend or a sibling that's getting their ass whooped. You do try to help, and they like null and void the whole shit. So now you don't did all of that, and they stay sticking with it. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. So that could have been a thing too, but even still, like, I don't know. I don't know if I could be like that.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_11

It's it's wild. I can't wait to get to episode three.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah, yeah, I gotta finish it.

SPEAKER_11

So that's crazy. All right. Uh we got me on your favorite part. Yep. The last gym of the year. We're gonna start this gym with a piece of advice for you fellas. Fellas, going into 2026. Wash a gooch.

Florida, talk to anybody. I don't I don't know if that's gonna help.

SPEAKER_08

Why do people have to go in? Telling other people that something was trash. Like, why bother? Just move on.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, just there's no need to bring up the why are you still thinking about it?
