That one relationship question changes the whole room: “When’s the last time you asked your man what he needs?” We don’t just laugh at it, we dig into why a lot of men hear that and immediately assume there’s a hidden agenda. The honesty gets uncomfortable in the best way, because it points straight at trust, communication, and how often people stop asking for care once they’ve been disappointed enough times.

Then we take a hard left into everyday-life debates that somehow turn into real life lessons: birthdays nobody celebrates, what appreciation actually looks like, and why “I’m good” can be a defense mechanism. We also get into personal finance frustrations like Coinstar fees, cashing checks back in the day, direct deposit stories, and the little ways convenience costs you. Somewhere in there we argue breakfast myths, milk, grits versus oatmeal, and the right way to eat watermelon with salt, because of course we do.

After that it’s full sports and culture mode: the NFL Draft, whether top picks should walk the stage, quarterback money, holdouts, and why speed isn’t the only thing that makes a great player. We close with a passionate take on the Michael Jackson biopic, including what makes the performance feel so close to the real thing and why fans are already planning a second watch. If you like unfiltered barbershop energy with real topics underneath, press play, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave us a review with your take: have you ever heard “What can I do for you?” and actually believed it?

NFL Draft No Show Argument

SPEAKER_03

Hold on, okay, hold on. We on the clock. Oh, never mind. Browns are browns. Oh, hell. Turn around. We traded out of it. Damn it. Oh, we're gonna give a pick to the Browns. Speaking of the draft, what do y'all think about the first number one overall pick not showing up to the draft? He don't want to show up. He don't want to do that. Yeah, he don't have to.

SPEAKER_04

Mendoza. Mendoza. Yeah, he had his own.

Ross Finds Shoe Goo And Gorilla Glue

SPEAKER_03

I was kind of salty about it. So what? Why? The reason why is because all of us have dreamed at some point in our lives about being the number one draft pick and walking across the stage. Never mind. Never mind, Christian. He said all of us. Christian ain't doing nothing. He ain't taking this Kobe shot for a million dollars, so I'm gonna exclude him. But I was salty about it because four of us have dreamed about walking across that straight stage as a number one draft pick. Joe, does this man speak for you?

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_03

What? Joe, you never dreamed about walking across the stage as a number one draft pick.

unknown

No.

SPEAKER_03

Speaking to the mic, Joe.

SPEAKER_02

No, I have not, sir. You're about to make us turn the TV. Because a man got to know his limitations, bro.

SPEAKER_05

We try to turn the TV on and there will be no more TV.

SPEAKER_02

Before you do your limitations. A man got to know his limitations, bro. I know I didn't have it.

SPEAKER_03

But before that, as a kid, before you didn't knew you didn't have it.

SPEAKER_05

They ain't had no draft way back when hell. It wasn't television. It was just on the radio. And they did used to they did used to have like 12. And then like right when I was coming out, I was like, man, sat there and watched the whole thing. Like, damn, my name would have been called if I had gotten up.

SPEAKER_03

That's not to say that I didn't have league trains. Of course I had league trains. But I didn't know. But like the number one drain. You never really cared about that.

SPEAKER_02

They still had the AFL and the NFL.

SPEAKER_03

Like I'm just saying. For me, then uh go ahead and tell us why you disappointed. The opportunity that I don't stage as a number one draft pick and hug whoever, Godell or whoever, Tagley, whoever. I mean, come on. Maybe you just wanted to hug a white man on stage.

SPEAKER_04

Is that what it was? He wanted them to pick. So you probably have like real real football dreams. Trying to get them over the pitch.

SPEAKER_05

Not necessarily real, real football dreams. I really didn't even have real football. Oh, you didn't have nigga. I kept playing because the shit kid kept being free. Yeah, but as a kid. So I'm like, oh, you play here. Oh, it's free. Oh, you can go here. Oh, it's free. Okay. Now you're done.

SPEAKER_03

As a 10-year-old, as a 10, 11, 12-year-old kid, when you watch the draft, you didn't think about okay, how you wouldn't like to be on that stage. I mean you said as a number one pick. No 10, 11-year-old has dreams.

SPEAKER_02

That's not true. That's not true. When you was young, what was your main objective?

SPEAKER_03

When I was young, like what depends on what I'm talking about. To be the number one drive. No, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_02

But your main objective? Get some pussy. High school. Graduate high school. What?

SPEAKER_03

He got it right. No, my main objective was to be successful in life.

SPEAKER_02

Okay, and what's your path for that? Just say, like, being the number one drive school. That's excellent.

SPEAKER_03

You go to college. College.

SPEAKER_02

You ain't gotta do that great. And then we'll tell you something.

SPEAKER_03

So I say, that was my objective. That's what that's what's going on.

SPEAKER_05

I ain't trying to outnigger you.

SPEAKER_02

The only thing they ever preached to us in my day was get a fucking diploma. That was it. You get that shit, you good to go. They ain't saying shit about no college. None of that shit.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

Motherfucker ain't know a college existed.

SPEAKER_03

Man, when I was 10 years old.

SPEAKER_02

I mean, college football. I mean, we watched that shit. But to go to college, nobody even phantom that shit.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, at 10 or 11, 12, that's kind of where you, you know, you kind of start your little sport, right? Right? What did you say about that age? About 10, 11, 12 when you start playing little league or Pee Wee.

SPEAKER_05

But when you get more serious about it. Oh, I was serious at 7 or 8. 7 or 8? Okay.

SPEAKER_04

Cracking motherfuckers' head. You were serious at 7 and 8, too.

SPEAKER_03

But I mean, I think at that's the age where, oh, maybe I want to go pro. It's not until you get to high school where you realize, okay, maybe I ain't gonna go pro. I didn't think that in high school. Yeah, I didn't I didn't start thinking about it. I ain't really even start watching football for real until I got to high school. But shit, when I was 10-11, I wanted to be a pro.

SPEAKER_04

I was 10-11 thinking we'd go pro. Yeah. Comparing myself to Walter Payton. Yeah. And Herschel Walker thing.

SPEAKER_03

I wanted to be in the WWF. I wanted to be Earl Campbell. Earl Campbell. Yeah. How about you?

SPEAKER_04

And OJ Simpson. Shit. I was a Jeez. I was all over the place. Okay. I'm gonna be a star running.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_04

SPEAKER_05

SPEAKER_02

I don't give a fuck who he went to.

SPEAKER_03

He went to the Raiders.

SPEAKER_05

So tell us why you're mad that he wasn't at the draft.

SPEAKER_02

I wouldn't have been there either if I was going to the Raiders.

SPEAKER_03

Again, I think there's a reason I wasn't there. I'm not there. A first for your five pick. I think a lot of those guys would rather prefer to fall across the stage. Fuck the raiders.

SPEAKER_05

You know, I know a lot of people that was drafted in some first rounds, and a lot of them didn't go to the draft.

SPEAKER_03

Well, that's I'm just saying. He knew he was a number one draft pick. Everyone knew he was a number one draft pick. Go walk across the stage. Oh well. Get your diploma. So what you said? It was disrespectful? I didn't say it was disrespectful. I was salty about it. Okay. That's all. Well, why does it bother you though? Because never mind.

SPEAKER_04

No, this is what the podcast is for. Didn't I explain to you? Well, you explained it too because you had the asset.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_05

Once the game started, he was like, oh, obviously you're gonna.

SPEAKER_02

I don't know how Jerry Rice did it. He ain't had no dirt nowhere. Jerry Rice was cold. Every game he played, bro, he ain't had no dirt.

SPEAKER_03

Jerry Rice was like he said, it was cold.

SPEAKER_02

Best route right now.

SPEAKER_03

How to get dirty when you ain't getting touched. The greatest route.

SPEAKER_04

He gone.

SPEAKER_03

I'm like he wasn't that fast. Just run out of bounds.

SPEAKER_02

Raise the ball, run out of bounds. He split that motherfucking safety, he gone.

SPEAKER_05

He was fast enough. That's all that count. As long as you're fast enough.

SPEAKER_04

He wasn't the fastest, but he was the best hands in the bitch.

SPEAKER_05

People sit up here and they put too much emphasis on uh on speed. Oh, that's true. And it's good.

SPEAKER_04

Look at Hester. Hester had all the speed as well.

SPEAKER_05

But Hester was a D B though. He's a Hall of Fame. He was a D B. Hester was a D B. He's not a true wide receiver. So I really won't even I won't even hold it against Devin Haster. Because he wasn't a real wide receiver. DB and a kick returner. He was just so Hall of Fame. So fast. So dynamic. And I'm like, how fast was Devin Haster?

SPEAKER_03

I thought it was a 4-3 guy.

SPEAKER_05

Was he? 4-3.

SPEAKER_04

Just beat him. There you go. They led him around the court.

SPEAKER_05

He was just him and like Tyreek Hill, Metcalf, Megat, all them dudes, they were good like in a phone. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Man.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. That's what you gotta do. That's what dude from Kansas City. Uh super fast kid. He's not, he's not fast in a phone booth. He's just fast. Xavier Worthy? Yeah, he's just fast like straight ahead. You can almost neutralize that. But if you like, because they can get you the ball. Like if you go to lineup, you know, point to the ref, make sure you are lined up. I know somebody talked about that one time. Actually, it was on the Dan Patrick show.

SPEAKER_03

I remember that.

SPEAKER_05

They were saying, do the refs even acknowledge when you point to them? Well, I'm here to clarify they actually do. They're not going to line you up, but they're a nod. Like when you go out there and you point at them, and if they kind of give you like a little nod, then you know the you should know to be on the line, right? If well, I was on the line because I was an ex. But if there's a a tight end, then you know when you see them shifting, the tight end comes over, then you step back. You get some jackasses that uh stay on the line, then they take off. Now it's an illegal formation.

SPEAKER_04

Dante Hall.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, that was Dante Hall? Yeah, what uh oh what did it say? What was uh Devin Hester's uh 40?

SPEAKER_02

I don't even want to know. I don't know why I go on the tank.

SPEAKER_03

He got him with the A.

SPEAKER_05

That's Dante Hall. Yeah, that's Dante Hall. Yeah, boy, that man. Yeah, he was nice with it. Oh, yeah, hell yeah, definitely.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_05

SPEAKER_02

Did they get that big dude from Ole Mission? Yeah, the six three.

Uh they got the running back. Love.

SPEAKER_05

No, I know they got love.

SPEAKER_03

I'm saying the lineman, the guard. They got a guard out of um. So who's gonna be the quarterback? I thought it was Jacoby Brissett. If he don't hold out, he wants more money. Oh, he's holding out. Well, that's smart. Yeah, he's a he's he's their starter. No, that's that's smart. Hold out. Minshew is getting paid more than Brissett.

SPEAKER_05

Get get your money. Is Minshew here now?

SPEAKER_03

Minshew's here, yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

So Minshew is the backup.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

And Brissett's gonna be the starter. And Minshew's banking more than him. Oh, yeah. No, you gotta hold out.

SPEAKER_04

Money. Yeah. And they both play for Phoenix.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, for the Cardinals.

SPEAKER_04

For the Cardinals?
