For Steppers Only: Raw, Uncut, and Unedited
Welcome To Death Row
Ever found yourself trick-or-treating with a drink in hand, transforming a chilly Halloween night into a warm social gathering? That’s exactly what happened to us, and it was a revelation! We recount our unexpectedly boozy journey through the neighborhood, where parents joining in on the festivities with a beverage or two turned an ordinary evening into a lively event. Listen as we reflect on how such spontaneous experiences can open our eyes to new traditions and bring unexpected joy to familiar occasions.
Is the freedom we experience merely an illusion shaped by financial burdens and societal expectations? Join us as we peel back the layers on this complex issue, examining how economic pressures trap individuals, especially the older generation, in cycles of hardship despite property ownership. We explore the effects of greed and systemic exploitation, drawing startling parallels between current financial structures and historical forms of oppression. This conversation aims to shed light on the realities behind perceived freedom, urging a critical look at the systems that shape our lives.
Facing the struggles of single parenthood and the demand for dual incomes, we question why capable individuals aren't compensated fairly. The emotional toll of financial stress is immense, yet amidst the challenges, there are stories of resilience and recent successes in worker unity through strikes. We highlight the importance of solidarity among workers and emphasize the need for fair recognition and compensation. As we share personal experiences about setting clear boundaries in relationships, both at work and home, we express our gratitude for the unwavering support of our audience, promising to keep these conversations going in meaningful ways.

Dog, I'm talking, bro, listen, I appreciate it, listen, it ain't the knock, listen, listen, it ain't the knock, listen. Now y'all got me not even wanting to say this shit no more, because I ain't knocking nobody's shit, though, even where I come from and shit like that. Bro, I ain't going to lie to you. They do it different. They do it different other places, bro. Bro, I was drunk as fuck out there going to them houses. I knew it was going to be something, though, because the second street I hit that was before I hit the street that I got drunk on. Yes, I got drunk with some people I ain't even know. Yes, I did, but before that, motherfucker just happy. It's like, hey, I look down, this motherfucker got a big ass jug of beer. I was like, oh yeah. I was like, yeah, these, motherfuckers ain't having that time.
Speaker 1:So, bro, this is what I've come to realize. I never, until I moved out here, realized why certain races walk around with a cup while kids go trick-or-treating right.
Speaker 2:Listen, I found out. I found out last night, bro, I became one.
Speaker 1:To be honest with you, bro, that shit make you not want to go to your own hood, no more, and go to that I don't want to.
Speaker 2:I don't want to. You know what I'm saying, but listen. That was I told him listen. Same time next year. I literally said that shit, because I'm coming back. I told him that's just.
Speaker 1:I'm coming back like don't leave, just, bro me bro, we were goddamn tripping about the shit, we were laughing and joking about the shit, because the first time I ever walked I said why the fuck they got tables at the end of the driveway instead of? You know the? I'm used, bro, I'm hear me bro, I'm used to doing I. I I'm gonna say this wrong, but I don't care what y'all think, bro, I'm doing. I'm used to doing some hood shit. Like you leave the bucket outside on the on the doorstep, and your whole bucket gone by the time you come back in the morning some of that shit was happening too.
Speaker 2:I ain't gonna lie to you, but listen where I went to. I don't think nobody knew to even go back there, bro. I went, I took a back street and did another back street. Cause the person who I went? Okay, cause this, my uh, my, uh, god, okay, my girls. Because the person who I went, okay, because this is my, my god, okay, my girl's, my god damn, my baby's god mom's house. She ain't even know where the fuck to go. I was like she was like, yeah, like it's behind some house. I said, damn. So yeah, we had a fucking hell of a time last night.
Speaker 1:Bro, but my whole thing is it. It shows you different experiences. You do, though, but it also means but you better be able to hold your liquor while you got down trick-or-treating and enjoying time with your kids hell yeah, but it also makes it more bearable when parents go and say like, hey, trick-or-treat what you got and like it made it like to where, like well, I was having fun regardless, but that just made it.
Speaker 2:Like it made adults have fun. You feel me like. That was like the adult trick or treating type of shit, like oh shit, we found a house to lick at, let's do it but I mean it makes.
Speaker 1:It makes things more bearable. It's cold and this kind of thing. We still enjoying ourselves just as much as our kids are. Um, even though I had to work last night yeah, nigga, I had to work, but it just makes things more bearable. You know, I'm saying because a lot of people don't understand and will never experience that, that side of a different lifestyle. Because if he growing up man, I ain't never see that shit. I don't know I ain't see that shit till I moved out this way.
Speaker 2:And when you? That's what. When I called you yesterday and told you you was like yeah, like you was like yeah, like you already understood what was going on. That's why I said, bro, I didn't even know what the fuck I was getting myself into. Motherfucker said listen, drink everything. We don't want nothing going back in the house. I said nothing. I said nothing. He was already drunk. I said, oh okay.
Speaker 1:But that shows you, but that's good hospitality, bro, you understand. But that tells you that you got to get out of your element sometimes and explore Yep. And a lot of people think that it's against the grain to go against your element, to explore a lot of times it's a bad thing.
Speaker 2:It ain't never a bad thing just to see what's out there. That's why I went across that water and that's why I really feel like every vacation, I feel well, just for like a couple years. For me, I really just want to go across the water like just to different places for like just like five years every like every year, go somewhere different across the water first, and then I'll start back going like having like sit down, like flights and all that, but going across that water to get to where the fuck we had to go to, I mean that shit was actually kind of dope, though, like I really had fun, type shit.
Speaker 1:But it's like I was expressing to one of my partners the other day. I said I'm so, my mindset is so on exploring. Now it's like, bro, I want to go to the DR, I want to go to Columbia, yeah, but I don't want to go by myself, I want to go with my partners, nigga nigga, you know I'm going nigga, you sure you're allowed to go to DO bruh, or is she a practice? Nigga, you gonna come back with a BBL, bro me oh hell no hey, I might come, hey, y'all don't know, but I'm about.
Speaker 1:I'm about like 5'6. You're gonna come back 6 foot. You're gonna come back six foot. Like what the hell jack done did over there? Nigga, I got my knees done, nigga. What you got done, jack shit. I got my knees and my ankles done, like shit. I mean shit. I want to be like bro. I'll tell you some ignorant ass shit. This female told me one time, bro, I wanted to cuss out. So motherfucking bad bro. This motherfucker told me I'd be attractive if I was taller. Damn bro, I said. I said, bitch, if you take that lace front off, you still look like Freddy Kugel.
Speaker 2:I don't know what's going on damn so, bro.
Speaker 1:yeah, man, it's just life experiences, mhm. Life experiences make you grow, make you see shit different, make you experience shit different, make you talk different. And a lot of people fail to realize they are so afraid of change than anything, oh shit. And a lot of people fail to realize they are so afraid of change than anything, oh shit. Speaking of change, hey, thug's free Thug is free, hey, man.
Speaker 2:Salute to Thug. Hey, I'm glad that boy is free and now, that shit is backwards. You know Saying Thug free, not free Thug. Yeah, I know that's right, yeah, but I just hate that he can't. Well, I know he wasn't living here, but I just hate he got them got to leave the city so abruptly. They only gave him 48 hours here so he'll probably be gone by the day. If he did stay here, bro, he said because, like what was it?
Speaker 1:two weeks ago? He said that, um, I saw where his, his, uh house here was put up for Zillow. Oh, I already knew that was coming. He getting the fuck out of Dodge.
Speaker 2:But I don't feel like that was his doing, though I feel like that was more so like the state-type doing type shit.
Speaker 1:Nah, the state tried to railroad his head, bro, no that's what I'm saying, like exhaust his funds, type shit. To where he couldn't represent himself no more.
Speaker 2:To where like like it was hard for him to where he don't want to be here, like, not even to where he don't even want to be here. No more like cause I'm pretty sure he want to be here, type shit. But, like I said, we would like just come visit every time, time and again, cause I know, like I said, he don't even stay here. So that's the matter of fact. Chilling here, just just, I'm just visiting, time being like I don't live here, I just visit, I'm working, so it's like it's just whatever, like. So they just tried to hit his ass with the one two. I know he did some years for that shit, but he came back stronger, bigger. Yeah, get his ass in the gym toning up. His ass. Gonna be big as hell for real, for real because he already like what six, three.
Speaker 1:But I feel like his goddamn, his own first concert gonna be, but his first concert is going to be, but now his first concert is going to be too. I mean, it's going to be the extreme.
Speaker 2:You get what I'm saying, I feel like I feel like a nigga like him. He'll do like a New Year's type thing.
Speaker 1:I think he about to get out there. As soon as he get out, though, bro, I don't feel like that though, bro, it's like a first week.
Speaker 2:I feel like he'll drop an album first. I feel like he'll drop an album first. Nah, I feel like he'll drop an album, well, not even an album like an EP, something, something small, yeah, like a little 4-5.
Speaker 1:Bro, I think he going to get in that lab.
Speaker 2:He going to work but he going to spend time with the family and keep his first. That's what makes me think that he's not going to do no tour or nothing yet. I feel like he's going to spend time. Thanksgiving coming up, we'll probably do Christmas with the family and like yeah, probably working through like December and shit, but I don't know. Like I said, a New Year's concert from Thug.
Speaker 1:Woof Bro, I don't even think it's that, because you got to think about it. He can't even communicate with no gang members.
Speaker 2:I mean. No gang members, that's fine, like I don't, I can do this shit by myself and the people that's out.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but the reason why we brought that up is because a lot of people got to change their mindset. Because once you start getting to a certain age, you start hanging around a certain crowd and it changes your mindset from being so controlled to open, to free and to explore life. A lot of times people fail to realize there's so much more out there than what they can see every day. But I mean, I mean, even with the economy just based on what it is right now, a lot of folks get blindsided because they trying to keep up with their bills and shit, because shit is expensive and you can't do shit other than, goddamn, barely hold your head above water. But a lot of people be like this damn shit, I can't go back.
Speaker 1:I want to go out and party, but I gotta pay these bills that my job ain't paying me. No, it's more so. I gotta pay these bills, but I want to. I want to do this, but I gotta pay these bills. I want to enjoy life. I want to pay these bills, but it's like what the fuck am? I want to do this, but I got to pay these bills. I want to enjoy life, I want to pay these bills, but it's like what the fuck am I supposed to do? Y'all motherfuckers want to throw pennies at me. Then, when I find out, these motherfuckers that just came on making more money than we are now, we got a problem.
Speaker 2:Oh, we do got a problem.
Speaker 1:Oh, we got a big problem.
Speaker 2:A huge problem.
Speaker 1:Yes, sir.
Speaker 2:Nah, I need that.
Speaker 1:I know that.
Speaker 2:Nah, I need that.
Speaker 1:Oh, I need that now. But a lot of people just fail to realize how controlled this perceived freedom is.
Speaker 2:It's very controlled and that's why no, no, listen, I ain't gonna lie to y'all we really just spitballing on this episode because we had a topic in mind and, I ain't gonna lie, we ping pong off each other so good that we just going with it, type shit right now. So, with that being said, nigga, this shit been very controlling. I be feeling like bro, like it be so much shit to be going on, brother, I just be like niggas need to just open their eyes and I feel like motherfuckers is starting to slowly wake up and see shit. But, nigga, y'all doing it too slow. I need y'all, at the snap of a motherfucking finger, wake, the fuck up, look, stop being so naive. And I feel like it's so bad because they got the old folks. They got the old folks in a fucking chokehold, right?
Speaker 2:yeah yeah, and it's like. It's like when you, when you, when you grow up and you talk to listen and respect and you're trying to get your point across, like look like and they're not trying to hear your side, it's like, well, I mean, I mean, at that point it's like where does respect go? Like cause respect is also given. Like respect is earned too. Like so it's like if you not showing me no respect, I'm gonna give you all the respect in the world, like I just will. I mean, I ain't gonna disrespect you. I just won't fucking fuck with you or talk to you, like there's no need for me to even conversate with you. You just won't see me, no more. I'm very good at that. I'm very good at disappearing.
Speaker 1:So let me ask you a question what you saying? That like they got the old foes in the chokehold and shit. I feel like that's 100 true, because if they didn't own their houses, from before they'll be homeless right now they'll be assed.
Speaker 1:Because how many, how many folks you know In they 60s and 70s, working Like working, working Busting, they ass here, they just to afford Somewhere to live. That y'all don't that? When we, we look back, three, four, five years ago, that shit was costing For eight, we'll say for Three bedroom, we talking about $800.
Speaker 2:Bro, I was looking at Bro, it was. It was some uh, I'm gonna say something else too after this. It was some on this app, right, and baby was like it's crazy. He looked at his little, uh, his walmart. Look at, from like two years ago, the same amount of groceries that he spent today. Today he spent 450 for it. Two years ago he spent 200 flat for that shit.
Speaker 2:Tell me why, just for me to eat, just for me to live, just for me to be okay, just me to support my family, I gotta pay double that. And take away from car insurance, which is going up, rent, which is going up every year, water, which is going up, which is going, which is going up, for I don't know, I use the same exact amount of water like I, I listen, I do this shit so much like I, I do this shit for a reason. So I I don't understand why power that can fluctuate. I understand power going up, cool, cool, cool but I just feel like this greedy shit, this mentality of this greedy shit Like this I don't know we got to do something about this greedy shit Like motherfuckers need to get held accountable for this greedy shit. That's what I really feel like, because like my thing, is you already eating, you already.
Speaker 1:Good yeah, but that's like, that's like me and my that's like me and one of my buddies were talking about it the other day. Bro, oh, they supposed to be doing, they supposed to be cutting this, they supposed to be cutting that. I said, bro, use your fucking logic. Bro, if I'm used to making $2,000 off of you, why the fuck would I cut back the goddamn 800? Yeah, I got this. Yeah, I got these double mouth games all for you.
Speaker 2:that's hustling backwards to me, bro, that's what I'm saying, like, but that's why I feel like all this shit be a fucking game, like just a play in your fucking face, bro, and that's why I just feel same ways about saying shit. You can feel how you want to feel, yeah, but when you look at the grand scheme of things, bro, I mean I don't know, bro, I mean I'm keeping it light, real shit, cause I feel like, cause, once you, once you start really throwing rocks and shit, motherfuckers really start start listening and trying to sabotage shit. You feel me, you're right, you're right, you're absolutely right, like, so I'm really just trying to keep it light Because, like, we're still trying to go, we're still trying to get our face.
Speaker 1:We're still trying to get our name and like.
Speaker 2:So it's just like. Don't try to block our support. This is how we feel it is a free country, correct Shit? Perceive freedom.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm saying. Because, like bro, like pay for somewhere to live, you gotta pay for something to eat, you gotta do all this shit, you gotta go to a job to make that money, and they only pay you enough to come back the next day. But they're, they're for like, just just like in slave times, because that's still what we are, that's how I feel. We're slayed to that dollar exactly. A lot of folks fail to realize yeah, they give you something you pay for somewhere to, but it's close to your plantation. That's what I be saying, bro.
Speaker 2:And real shit, bro, and I be talking to my girl and shit, and I feel like sometimes she don't understand where I be coming from, because I say like this she want me. I feel like this I'm not going to say exactly what she be saying, but I'm going to say like this she want me. I'll put it like this I'm not going to say exactly what she be saying, but I'm going to say like this she want me to go to the store every Monday on the day. But I'm like, why would I go to the store on Monday when I'm already out on Tuesday? I can already just swing by after, on Tuesday, after I get done with what I'm doing on Tuesday, because we still got stuff in here to eat, we're still good. We're still good on everything on Monday, we're still good. You just want extra, you just want what you want for you today, yeah, right now. So I swing through on on Tuesday and get what, get what we need, and everything by the, by the day, because I know we'll still be straight.
Speaker 2:But it's a disconnect there. It's a well, you can go today and tomorrow, type shit. It's like, well, if I do that, who's telling what the fuck is going to go down when I go outside, Bro. I'm not saying that's how the conversation goes. I'm real slick with my words, trust me. So I'm just saying that to say it's just like. Like you said, slay that damn dollar, bro, like that shit just got a chokehold on that. Has a chokehold on everybody the slaves of dollar.
Speaker 1:Has a chokehold on everybody but it's crazy now because, like I was telling you the other day, it's like where I live yeah, they were talking about you gotta have two people in the household. I literally grew up like I'm a single dad. It's just me and my boys. My other kids come over here when I'm off, like, and we spend time.
Speaker 1:But how the fuck, if I'm a single father, am I supposed to provide a comfortable roof over my kid's head if I gotta have another income in my household? I'm no longer single, I'm dependent on somebody. So how the fuck is that single? Because I remember when I was growing up, my mama my mama was a single parent did that shit by herself. She ain't had to have nobody else in that motherfucking household. So why are y'all putting this stipulation on people now? Because a lot of people can't survive out here. Man, I remember a study they were doing tonight, too long ago. They talking about something it's 212 to to support a. To support a husband, a wife and one child was $212,000 a year. Who the fuck? What average.
Speaker 2:What is the average? Thank you. Motherfuckers ain't even making damn near half of that. No, niggas ain't even making half of that. Motherfuckers barely hitting about 70, 80. You feel me? Barely that. And motherfuckers got a hell of a resume and still ain't hitting shit. But motherfuckers got a hell of a resume and still ain't hitting shit. But motherfuckers can also get the job done and don't have that resume and still ain't getting paid, though that's another problem that we have too. Yeah, if I can get that job done, pay me to get that job done, then we won't have no issue. You're mad. You're mad. Motherfuckers be slacking off. Pay a motherfucker, then see what they do.
Speaker 1:But the thing is, bro, shit, you see, okay, so we talk about that. Yeah, y'all still want to pay us pennies, but when we complain we don't show up to work or we go look elsewhere. You have a problem. But then you got these damn workers that just went on strike and just made 30 plus more dollars an hour.
Speaker 2:That be having motherfuckers thinking like I mean shit, what the fuck I mean? Motherfuckers need to get on one page, though that's thinking like I mean shit, what the fuck I mean? I need to get on one page, though that's the only thing. My fucking can't be bullshitting, my fucking can't be half stepping with the shit, and that's the only thing, though I feel like motherfuckers ain't unified like how they say they'll be unified, though people, people, not people not together how they say they'll be together. They're yeah, they quick. They say yeah, yeah, yeah, but they ain't be the main ones to fucking go tell the boss behind your back what the fuck about to happen. Y'all, y'all, y'all. So it's like damn, who the fuck do I really trust? Like we can't get shit accomplished. We can't get no money because we can't come together. If we come together, we can get some money.
Speaker 1:I damn sure that, because like I tell people all the time man.
Speaker 2:Like pay no extra snitch on you. That's what I'm saying, that's why I be bro, listen, that's what I be telling bro. Listen, we, we, we, we unprofessional this episode. I mean, I was drunk yesterday, I'm drunk today and I'm off this weekend. I'm drunk every day this weekend because I feel like we've been going through a lot. It's been a hell of a year. It has been a hell of a year, motherfucker. If you still alive and you, you deserve it put your glass up, put whatever the fuck, put it up, as long as ain't no hard drug. Put it up, god damn it and celebrate. It's been a hard fucking year and you still chugging, you still making it through. So I ain't going, I'm not, I'm not here to judge nobody. I, like you said, I'm not here to snitch on nobody. You do what you do. Just don't try to come harm me, my family or anybody who I fuck with, because we putting you down straight like that. And don't come to our place of work doing that bullshit either, because I promise you.
Speaker 1:That, that, nah, because I get threatened too many times.
Speaker 2:He get threatened damn near every day and I'm just like, what the fuck do you be doing? I be sitting there chilling, jack, be chilling they. I guess they see how big I am. Like, yeah, I'm following the fuck with him, I'm gonna follow him right here. But then like he not even a safe bet to fuck with either. So it's like, bro, like you lose either way, because either way, whichever one you're coming at, the other one coming too. So it's like, either way, it don't even really matter but a lot of times, bro.
Speaker 1:But the thing is like, I feel like they should pay us what we're worth.

If y'all don't understand, like somebody asked me the other day, why do we do this, if y'all didn't know, like, um, I was going through a tough time at one point.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and shit like shit. I still have my hiccups, but this shit is my therapy. I told smiley the first time when I was about to start, this shit did. Bro, this shit is relaxing, this shit is calm and this shit is my therapy. I told Smiley the first time when I was about to start this shit, bro, this shit is relaxing, this shit is calm and this shit is able to release. We enjoy this shit. Y'all got to understand. We actually have fun doing this shit and to us it's like our weekly release, to the point where it's like, hey, smiley, you ready to do one? Our weekly release, yep. To the point where it's like hey, smile, are you ready to do one? And it it it. Lets us get a lot of shit off our chest. Without getting shit off our chest, go ahead, I'm sorry, bro, I'm gonna let you go back in.
Speaker 2:Bro, this, this shit got me goddamn talking today, boy, I got a lot to say, but I will say say this the only reason we won't shoot as much, bro, dead ass jack lived down there like really like about 35, 40 minutes away from me, and it's a legit 35, 40 minutes away from me, like a legit ain't. No, like traffic like it's, it's legit. So if traffic do come in, it's about an hour. So it's like the only thing is, bro, it just be like we real people at the end of the day, like we got shit we got to pay for. So at the end of the day, the only thing is, sometimes we don't shoot as much as cause, nigga, I just ain't got the cash and no shit to spare to get out here.
Speaker 2:Like I still gotta work, I still gotta take care of my baby, I still got a fucking girl that needs shit, I still gotta make sure I can get through, just like how y'all do you feel me? So it's like, if y'all fuck with us, how you like y'all understand that. That's why I said this shit about this mind. Shit like that, shit would change a lot. Like that, like that y'all don't even know what changed. Like y'all would see a whole, like oh shit, tell y'all, but what the fuck? Like the whole type.
Speaker 1:but you feel me like, like bro, I don't understand. I don't think they really understand our growth and this shit, like that's it. That's all we talk about, man, but shit, hey, I mean, we send screenshots to each other to show how much we've grown. If y'all get on our Instagram, that's for Steppers Only, pod and y'all see me post funny memes and shit like that, but y'all will also see our mile markers. Y'all also see us when we like, we're like, we're posting, like god damn bro, I can't believe, like I'll give y'all a perfect example. Y'all don't know how much work that has gone into this shit and us to develop this shit, because when we first started out our first fucking month, we did 148 streams in a month, a month, a month.
Speaker 2:And we're like shit.
Speaker 2:We thought we were doing something, then Like he ain't lying. Listen, I ain't gonna lie to you One thing about it we we never got no. Well, I say this it's only been one moment where we was like kind of not even iffy about it, like kind of just had to be like real meticulous about certain shit, like certain things couldn't happen no more. Like we just started seeing certain shit we couldn't go for. So at that point that's the only time I can really say that I could see that both of our shit wasn't in it, because after that 9 out of 10, if it ain't about work or if it ain't about our kids, bro, the only thing we talking about is the podcast Like this. So, like I said, through the rest of the tangent, fuck with us and we gonna fuck with y'all.
Speaker 1:Hell, yeah, shit, because hey, that's what I live by Fuck with me how I fuck with you, yep, if you fuck with me, don't fuck me, yep, and that's my biggest thing. Like I tell everybody don't fuck me and I won't fuck you. But I want to tell y'all thank y'all for listening to us fold. Step us only we out. Peace.
