Apple Top 100 Album List & Inside The NBA - #94 · The Grounded Show

0:01
Audio, so Quincy sent the Apple Top one hundred albums list right before we
0:08
got disrespectful. Hey, Actually something that I checked out. I checked out
0:14
actually that I heard on the Breakfast Club was DJ Envy and Charlemagne was talking
0:20
about when they did the intro, and somebody, somebody of importance at the
0:25
station that they work at was telling them, like, yo, y'all need
0:28
to say your names every episode, like every time you start the show,
0:32
say your name the same way, a recognizable way, Like that's really important.
0:36
And they're like kind of known for the intro and people always remember their
0:40
names because you think about the intro, like you can't forget who's on the
0:44
show, you know what I mean. Charlemagne the God justs hilarious, like
0:49
it's like etched in your brain. We don't even like introduce ourselves. We
0:56
just get right into it. We just be on here. We don't even
0:59
put the names on the on the thing anymore because it interferes with the captions
1:02
and stuff. So, like, you know, I think we should start
1:06
giving the introductions, man, like we need to. We need to let
1:08
the people know what it is. Facts, all right, facts, yes,
1:15
sir, we back again. It's your boy, Lester Sanchez, artist,
1:21
producer, designer, ex Shorten. There a little bit of everything back
1:26
again for the Grounded Show. I'm here with my dogs. I'm gonna let
1:29
them introduce themselves. Your boy, Quincy jamal Man artists professional get whatever you
1:36
just said. That's kind of cool. I wanted to say it too,
1:38
And yeah, man, we're back at it. Yeah it's your boy.
1:42
I stay greasy, I keep it easy. I'm a mother lover from the
1:46
gutter and you gotta stay buddy. You feel me? Hey, Dad,
1:51
it's like that was hers like he was in the mirror with that one.
1:55
No, I got to introduce myself. It means all the time, bro,
1:57
it's like a week. A good intro is a good icebreaker too,
2:01
you know. Yeah you said the vibe, right, that's one thing that
2:05
I'm trash at that you're great at, Joe. Like just setting like a
2:09
like a comfortable atmosphere, you know what I mean, Like I set like
2:13
a standoff is terrible atmosphere, you know what I mean. Like it's crazy
2:16
because you catch me on a podcast and it's like not and day from like
2:21
real life. But it's also because it's y'all, you know what I'm saying,
2:23
talking to the home means I'm chilling, you know what I'm saying.
2:25
But I swear people probably think I'm an asshole just from like how I be
2:30
looking when I be around, and it's just I don't know, dog,
2:32
I didn't even I wasn't even aware of it until my wife told me,
2:35
like, no, that's what That's just funny, Like let's you're the way
2:40
you are is a lot I have, my boys are I'm probably like the
2:44
one off of all my boys, like you are probably aligned with them more
2:47
than me. So that's why it's so easy for me to understand like your
2:52
personality, Like he's just like that bro, trust me. Yeah, it's
2:55
it's funny, man. But yeah, man Quincy showed us that top one
3:00
hundred lists, So the way I understood that list at first, that Apple
3:07
dropped like for some reason, I don't know, I think I read an
3:08
article or something, but I had thought that it was just like them talking
3:14
about albums specifically that are on Apple Music in the streaming era. I don't
3:20
know why I thought that was the criteria. So when I had seen like
3:23
you know, them like dropping the list little by little and catching it like
3:28
in the news and stuff like that. I wasn't really paying no mind from
3:31
that point of view, because if it's just something that you're basing off of
3:36
your platform, and you know, in the streaming era, like those are
3:39
different, different criteria, you know what I'm saying. But dog, it
3:44
says on the link from Apple Welcome to one hundred Best Albums, our definitive
3:50
list of the greatest albums ever made. That says definitive list, which is
3:55
the greatest albums ever made. So this is telling me, you're saying that
4:00
this album, this list is your what y'all think are the greatest albums from
4:04
one to one hundred? And like I said, who picked that Apple Music
4:08
executives? Who is the one who definitively agree to that? I don't know.
4:14
Usually it's it's a whole bunch of writers. But I'm saying, you
4:16
know what, I would appreciate it if because I saw the disclosure. Well,
4:20
no, I opened that up. I'm at the gym, opened Apple
4:24
Music app, and I see that and it says here's like seventy through one
4:28
hundred and click it. It takes them to a link outside of Apple Music.
4:30
No, that's one thing I hate about anything, don't take me to
4:31
a link outside. So then I was like, as easy as they did
4:35
that, why didn't they put that in all the users in Apple Music?
4:39
Like, hey, where do you put these albums in the top one hundred
4:42
hours of all time? Why didn't they ask their users? They have real
4:45
easy access to the users. Why didn't you use the users who came up
4:48
with this list. Yeah, I don't know. But first of all,
4:55
and I'm not I'm not even going to qualify any of these statements or this
5:00
list because we talking music. You know what I'm saying. It ain't no
5:03
disrespect to anybody nothing, you know what I'm saying. We're just talking candidly
5:09
about this list. Dog. Why is Lauryn Hill the number one album of
5:13
all time? Dog? You know album? But it is a great album.
5:23
I've never thought to myself, Dang, if I never listened to that
5:26
Lauryn Hill album ever again, my life would just never be the same.
5:30
Like, it's a great album. But to say the number one album of
5:34
all time? Yeah, and then you're gonna disrespect Thriller by putting it behind
5:40
it? Yeah, that's crazy. Like, if you're gonna put Lauryn Hill
5:43
at number one. Just go all the way with it and put Thriller at
5:46
like seventy three. You know what I'm saying, Like, if you're gonna
5:49
not put Thriller number one, you know, based off of the albums that
5:53
are on this list, you already lost, like in my opinion, because
5:57
Dog, what are we talking about right now? And that was the same
6:00
thing I felt. If I'm thinking of the number one greatest album of all
6:05
time, it has to be one of the greatest artists of all time.
6:11
Not taking away from Laura Hill. She's an amazing artist, one of my
6:14
favorite not just female, not just rap, not just R and B,
6:17
just one of my favorite artists in general, but not the greatest album of
6:24
all time favorite artists. Dog, I'm gonna run this. I'm gonna run
6:29
this Thriller track list real quick, and then Quincy, I want to hear
6:32
your thoughts, but let me run through this track list real quick, all
6:34
right. The track list to Thriller, Oh my God, bro number one.
6:42
The album starts with want to Be Starting. That's the first song,
6:47
bro. Like that song is just a banger, period, but as the
6:50
first song on the album, like, it just makes so much sense and
6:55
it's like such a fire intro song. But all right, I'm not gonna
6:59
describe all of them, but number two Baby Be Mine a banger, The
7:03
Girl Is Mine, number three featuring like Come On. Number four Thriller,
7:10
one of the greatest songs of all time, one of the most recognizable songs
7:13
of all time. Number five beat It one of the most infectious songs of
7:16
all time. Like that's just like you can't help but feel that joint fact.
7:20
Billy Jean, the classic just Slider of your childhood, Like everybody just
7:26
Billy Jean hits and everybody feels the same way. Human Nature number seven one
7:31
of the most beautiful songs of all time. Just just a feeling that you
7:36
don't even get from a song dog Like that's that song is crazy p yt
7:42
number eight, Come On. Number nine Lady in My Life, probably my
7:46
favorite ballad of all time. Do so, so, what's up? What
7:54
do you feel about? The start of one and two of this list.
7:59
It's a tone for the rest of the list, because for you to put
8:03
D'Angelo Voodoo at fifty seven and Usher Confession at ninety five, that's crazy,
8:11
like absolutely insane. Usher Confession is probably his best album ever, it's one
8:18
of the main albums ever period period. And don't get me wrong, I
8:24
enjoy Voodoo. It got some songs on there. But when it comes to
8:28
bodies of work, bro, come on, it's not even in the same
8:31
conversation. Bro, it don't even make any sense. Like I feel like
8:35
they just put albums in and shuffled it. I will say this one that
8:41
caught me by surprise. But when I thought about it, I was like,
8:46
dang, I really could argue it might belong in this spot. Is
8:52
good Kid, Mad City? Yeah No, that's a body of that's a
8:54
great body of wars. When I saw it, I was like, good
8:56
Kid, Mad City. But then I really thought about that album and honestly,
9:01
it also dropped that like a time where I was like peak, like
9:05
into music, you know what I mean. Like it caught me at the
9:07
right time as well. But like just that album period is like that that's
9:11
that's a slide or that's exactly like that was, And just as an album,
9:18
like when you think about actually an album, like it really is like
9:22
like you said, Joe, no skips, because it's just really a body
9:24
of work. This is the way I look at it. Thriller. You
9:26
got nine tracks easily easily six of those tracks you could play to almost anybody
9:35
in this world and they know that song. Dang y'all want to know?
9:39
Go ahead, bro, I'm sorry, no, no, no, no,
9:41
go ahead, keep no no. I'm going to a different point,
9:43
bro, going to a different thing. I want to be starting some thriller.
9:46
Beat It, Billy Jane, Human Nature, pyt To this day,
9:50
you can play those six tracks and that's more than that's like seventy percent of
9:54
that album. Fact, Lauren Hill sixteen tracks, I Think and You Got
9:58
Me? We Lost One's X factor is Zion do wop, everything is everything.
10:05
It can't take my eyes of you. Six out of sixteen, less
10:09
than fifty percent of that track that you could play to anybody in this world
10:13
and they probably recognize and something might even you might even get down the four
10:18
broo. Bro, there's people that wouldn't recognize any Laura Hill song, You
10:20
see what I mean? And that's why it's like the power of those songs
10:24
today and how long ago was that. That's nineteen eighty two compared to nineteen
10:31
ninety eight, and those songs still resonate more than a lot of songs on
10:35
that Laurence Hill, I do not see that justification. So what I was
10:41
gonna say, really quick, go ahead. I think we had an episode
10:43
I can't remember what episode it was where we discuss Drake's albums and which one
10:48
was like the best body of work. And I don't know if this was
10:50
a consensus that we all came to, but I do recall nothing was the
10:56
same being that body of work? Am I incorrect? Or Joe was taking
10:58
Care? Okay, it was take Care? What about you guys? For
11:03
me, I would say nothing was if you if I picked him, that
11:05
one has a hold on your going home and find your loving both Kanye produced.
11:13
Yep, Yeah, he has some good singing on the album. So
11:16
they have take Care. First off, they have take Care. Drake's only
11:20
album on this list is take Care and it's at number forty seven. Nothing
11:26
was the same didn't even make the list. Take Care. It was like
11:31
Trouble. Double the track length, I mean double the track list length of
11:35
Nothing was the same too, and Dog number five in between Prince and Stevie,
11:41
Wonder Blonde by Frank Ocean. Ah, yeah, I would rather put
11:48
your ultra, I put in ultra any Frank even Channel Orange. I'm about
11:54
to say, I feel like Channel Orange is better than Blonde. Yeah,
11:56
I put but yeah, nostalag is more like a mixtape. But Channel Orange
12:01
critical acclaim for Blonde has always confused the whole overrated For me, these people
12:09
think that album is like the touch of God. Bro, Like, what
12:13
what am I missing? Dog? Like? I get mad sometimes, like,
12:16
Bro, what am I missing when I'm listening to this that I'm not
12:18
hearing what these people are hearing? Because Dog, they talk about this album
12:24
like it's something like yo to me, like this is random as hell,
12:28
But I'll take Teaso Touchdown every day over Frank Ocean. Dogs. That's why
12:33
every day, dog, Yo, I'm telling you check out Teaso Touchdown and
12:37
his whole body of work. But did you listen to No No, I
12:41
listened to all Frank Ocean. I'm I'm a Frank Ocean fan. And so
12:46
you can match up soft a song on both of those to everything Got Today.
12:50
I agree with that. It's just the sound that Teaso Touched Down got
12:54
like. It's just crazy, like it's definitely not for everyone because it's like
12:58
a mix of sound. No, but can you match him song for song
13:01
I can. I can for sure see my introduction to t though was him
13:05
live and it just was not for me. I saw him and I was
13:09
the first time I ever heard him at all, and it just was not
13:13
for me at all. Yeah, but I've seen artists that I like that
13:16
I saw them live and I didn't even finish the show, you know what
13:20
I mean, Like I couldn't even watch it, and they're like my favorite
13:22
artists, you know what I'm saying. So I wouldn't judg. I definitely
13:24
would would check him out again, but I still wouldn't be surprised if you
13:28
didn't like him anyway if you heard him again. Yeah, just for me,
13:31
Like that's like and this kind of goes back to my feelings about Blonde.
13:35
Like to me, when I heard Teazo Touchdown, it was like I
13:39
heard something new, Like I remember like hearing his songs because it was like,
13:45
damn, this is different, but it's so fire, you know what
13:48
I'm saying. Even though Frank Ocean is dope and I'm a fan of Frank
13:52
Ocean, I never heard any of his music and was like, what is
13:56
this He's this is something different, you know what I'm saying I have I'm
14:00
not gonna lie. I have, bro, I'm not gonna lie. His
14:03
music there's there's no loops, there's no repetitiveness. Every single song is like
14:09
an orchestra of R and B. I got you, Like, That's how
14:15
I feel about when you're talking about R and B. That's how I feel
14:18
about Craig David. I mean, like I hear like Craig. When I
14:24
first heard Craig David, it was like a life changing sound, you know
14:26
what I mean? Like I was like, bro, what this is so
14:28
fire? Like? The way like Craig David to me was like one of
14:33
the first ones that I was really like flowing and getting on like dope beats
14:37
for R and B artists, Like I always hate That's one thing I always
14:41
hate about R and B that everything on the albums was so slow. It's
14:45
like everything was slow, like just a whole bunch of slow songs, one
14:48
right after another. And it's like, dog, I like, I like
14:52
hearing these guys when they own the rap songs, you know what I mean.
14:54
I like hearing them when they're like on the singles and stuff. But
14:56
then you go to the album and everything is just like super slow, super
15:00
slow, super impressing. I'm like, bro, I'm not trying to listen
15:03
to this. I want to keep going R and B, but let's not
15:05
get too d Yeah, I keep on this list. Yeah, dog.
15:09
And then Beyonce Lemonade number ten like that around out that that was a good
15:16
body of work, though, Bro, that was a revolution. Especially Twitter
15:20
was Twitter was at this time. This is my other thing with these with
15:24
this list as well. Though. I'm glad y'all said that, because it
15:26
reminded me of a point that I wanted to make that I didn't write down
15:31
these albums on this list. Some of them don't even make the time cut
15:35
off to even be talked about, to even be put on this list.
15:41
Frank Ocean Blonde, like just looking at it off the top of my head,
15:45
like bok bruh. These albums are twenty one by Adell, nineteen eighty
15:50
nine Taylor Swift like Dog, these albums ain't even old enough to be considered
15:54
on these on these lists, Dogs like I feel like you got it,
15:58
Like you can't be putting these albums in the same like, respectfully, they're
16:03
good, but that's like putting Antwards in the top ten exactly like this whole
16:07
Like, oh, he's like Jordan bro. He hasn't even done it.
16:10
He hasn't done a damn thing like Jordan's. Come on now, I am
16:15
a big, big Amy White House fan. I can't wait to watch your
16:18
movie Back to Black. Yeah, it's just one of my favorite albums of
16:22
probably the favorite album of her of all time. I bought it for my
16:25
sister for her birthday. But same, yeah, my top ten Yeah facts,
16:33
and it's a dope album that that one. She got some sliders,
16:37
Man, she got some sliders. I'm usually not a fan of like female
16:40
R and B and stuff, but maybe One House is dope, super dope.
16:45
What's your thoughts about Doctor dre At nineteen with the Chronic Doctor The Chronic
16:52
to me is one of those things where it's like I could, I always
16:56
could give it the past, you know what I mean, because like it
17:00
was another thing that changed the sound, like even though like to me,
17:04
when you look back on it, it's dope, but it's not like that
17:08
I will put it like no, you know what I'm saying, like top
17:11
twenty all time, maybe like maybe a round out the thirty for me,
17:15
you know what I'm saying, but top twenty here, Richard Dyke Trying at
17:21
eighty two, Marshall Mathers a eighty Broeah, Richard I Try and arguably should
17:26
have been the second best rap album at least behind Illmatic. It should have
17:33
been like that is before him. They put Nwa before, I mean,
17:37
I could be bad Bunny before it. Oh, I don't get it.
17:41
They put Enter the Wu Tang two spots ahead of Illmatic. Dog that's crazy,
17:48
that's wild, and then they're both behind Beyonce is Beyonce album Yo,
17:55
Janny Jackson Control at forty two, Equim and I Are forty one. The
18:00
fact that Bob Marley's album is at forty six and all of these albums before
18:04
it, it's crazy to me. That was a big project. Billy El
18:14
at thirty. I won't be I'm not I'm not too man. At least
18:18
my beautiful Dark Twiss and Fantasy was in the top thirty. I put that
18:22
one a little high. That was a masterpiece. Up with the chronic I
18:27
think they got to entertain the masses, you know, the people who make
18:32
Billboard charts, the people who have subscribed to Apple Music, the people.
18:37
It definitely gets tricky as well, when you're when you're merging all the genres,
18:41
you know what I mean. That's why it's like, it's kind of
18:45
hard to stay unbuying number seventy three, Who the Boys, Steely Dad,
18:53
uh Boys? I like the Blueprint at thirteen. I don't mind that top
19:00
fifteen, but yeah, I can't. I can't get with at all.
19:07
Yeah, bro, I'm at that. I'm in the nineties and no Maxwell.
19:12
Yeah wow, that's crazy. That's well not even at the top one
19:18
hundred. Astra World at ninety eight that that album is from twenty eighteen.
19:26
Kate Busch is Kate Bush. The album is six years old. Kate Bush
19:33
is the chick from the eighties that had that song that they ended up using
19:37
it for Stranger Things and it got popular again. It went back to number
19:40
one. What is it? What was it called? The It was like
19:45
right that hell yeah, yeah, yep yeah. The overall thoughts on that,
19:52
man, that's that's terrible, dog, it's a terrible list. It's
19:56
hard when you mix the genres. I'll give him that that is that's the
20:00
only out they get. They get it. So you can't make a percentage
20:06
of hip hop a percentage of this, but I would take overall album sales,
20:11
overall tour sales, overall singles on the album, overall impact to the
20:17
culture, and how it still resonates today as a factor for all of these
20:22
and a lot of these top fifties do not fit the fit the bill for
20:26
me. No, that's a fact. That is a fact that list man.
20:33
To quote Dave Chappelle, I wish I had four hands so I could
20:36
get that list four thumbs down. Oh man, I feel like they couldn't
20:45
run about it a little better if they just did graenres and probably let the
20:47
people kind of figure it out from there. You know what I'm saying,
20:49
Like Dores, you know what I mean, because right now, this list
20:52
to me, even even if you organize it by genre, I don't agree
20:56
with the list like exactly. That's only yeah, even if I only looked
21:00
at hip hop in R and B, personally, I still feel like this
21:04
list is not where it needs to be. The top ten gotta be somebody
21:10
that influenced so many people, Like you know what I'm saying, Like it
21:14
has to be like an originator of sound like yo, college dropouts not even
21:18
on here, crazy bro, No, I didn't see no cooling the gang.
21:26
I ain't seen no gap band, I ain't see no beg's like nothing
21:30
like that, Like if we do it ourselves for hip hop and rap.
21:36
They're saying the greatest hip hop and rap albums of all time is Good Kids,
21:38
Mass City at number one, blue Printing number two, Chronic at number
21:45
three, My Beautiful Dark at number four, Low End Theory number five,
21:53
Ready to Die number six? Are you green so far into the wu?
21:56
I gotta hear the I gotta hear the ten, Elematic number eight, Equipment
22:03
nine, number nine, and then we're not gonna put Drake, uh Drake
22:08
will be the tenth one. We're not. I won't put it all eyes
22:12
on me number ten. No, there's too much R and B on I
22:18
said, this is hip hop and rap. I'm not doing this. These
22:21
aren't R and B albums. You wouldn't You wouldn't put that. It's a
22:26
lot of R and B on take care. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
22:29
I agree. I agree. So yeah, then Tupac would be the ten.
22:33
Yeah yeah, I wouldn't be mad at that. Like the order,
22:34
obviously I would switch it up, but the names and the importance of those
22:40
people that you named in that top ten. I wouldn't be mad at that
22:42
list. I think that's what they went wrong. Combining these takes a lot
22:48
of it, because then you're skipping all the people you don't know, and
22:51
you're like, who the fuck these people? Yeah? Back up, Yeah,
22:59
well there you have it, folks. Yeah, facts, you heard
23:03
it here. First, it's trash, yo, speaking of trash, speaking
23:10
of speaking of it is terrible inside the NBA dogs, it's looking like next
23:15
year the last NBA. Man, it's staple. No, it's not looking
23:18
it's officially official. Well, the show itself in the iteration is it's for
23:26
sure not coming back. They could still all go to another, you know,
23:30
another company together, whether it be ESPN, Disney. I mean Disney
23:33
is ESPN at this point, but you know, whether it's Amazon, whether
23:37
it's another cable. It will never be the same as is the end of
23:41
an era. It could be the same if they're able to keep the producers.
23:48
Yeah, so if the producers go to it could it would be a
23:52
different name, and it'll obviously, like you know, it'll literally not be
23:56
the same. But if they can keep the producers, it could be pretty
24:00
much the same. If they keep the talent and the producers. Well the
24:04
show started in nineteen eighty nine. Yeah, that's I don't know. I
24:07
feel like that's highly unlikely because the money they're gonna want is gonna be too
24:12
crazy. That's what I was just going to say, that we know about
24:15
the money grabbing the industry and the executives and how they want to flip shit
24:19
the people in power, the people in control. I feel like I've never
24:22
seen successfully a show transition from one contract to another and still be the same
24:27
as what it used to be. That's how you know business is just shisty
24:33
and just be stupid. Because I feel like, in simple terms, obviously
24:37
I'm saying this from the point of view of ADO that ain't got none to
24:41
do with these companies, but like, in simple terms, I would want
24:45
to kind of help keep that going just because it adds so much to the
24:48
NBA dog. You know what I'm saying, Like, you let somebody else
24:52
pay some guys to run a show that's boosting your product, you know what
24:56
I'm saying, Like it sounds like a win win for everybody. So I
25:02
don't know, bro, I just hope, I don't know. I hope
25:06
it stays somewhat intact if it has to be on ESPN or whatever. I
25:11
just hope it it don't just die completely. A lot of people were saying
25:18
that, you know, Ernie Johnson been at TNT since before that show,
25:22
I believe, So, yeah, he was there work on the timeline and
25:26
exactly he ain't leaving TNT like he's been there for so many years, and
25:32
more than likely he ain't going nowhere if everybody leaves or whatever. So that'll
25:37
definitely suck just not seeing Ernie without Charles, you know what I mean?
25:41
Yeah, I think he was the best balance of those characters on there.
25:47
It's crazy for me because like it was, it started in eighty nine,
25:51
like that was when I was born dog eighty nine. So the show's literally
25:55
been what I've been watching the NBA for Like, you know what I'm saying,
25:57
Like I give priority to the TNT game since a kid, dog,
26:02
you know what I'm saying, Like I remember who the original members were,
26:04
because I probably didn't start watching until Shaq and Chuck around there. For sure,
26:07
they had different people along there, but it was uh EJ and Kenny
26:14
and then Charles came and then but they used to have different people randing me
26:18
on there, like different players and different personalities and stuff they would be on
26:22
the show. But dog, it's just it's been it's been such a staple
26:29
for every NBA fan and just always hearing the It was just like you always
26:34
felt like they were they were talking about it from the point of view that
26:38
you would talk about it, you know what I mean, Like you watched
26:41
first Take and things like that, where they're just coming up with arguments that
26:45
don't even make sense, just because they gotta you know, they're just there
26:48
to argue, and they always got to have topics, you know what I'm
26:51
saying, and it eventually becomes the caricature of itself. But inside the NBA,
26:55
you always felt like they were just looking at it like how the game
26:59
should be looking that, And you know, they were credible guys, so
27:02
you know what they was talking about. And I just as a kid,
27:03
you're like, dang, bro, you're hearing these NBA greats talk about like,
27:07
oh, like when you're in a game like that, you know they
27:11
always give you the behind the scenes, like you know, when you're away,
27:15
you know, you're not in your stadium, so you don't get the
27:17
same kind of car service. You know, you don't get the same kind
27:19
of treatment in the stadium, so like you don't feel as good before the
27:22
game, like you're not as lose, you're not as warmed up. This
27:26
is like just giving you the inside of why like certain things are important and
27:30
certain things that they expect from people. And honestly, like I feel like
27:33
that's what gave me all my NBA knowledge, just really hearing them talk and
27:37
just really watching the game and understanding where they're talking about it from. And
27:41
you could always see where the game is going just from analyzing what was already
27:45
happening because of what they was telling you, you know what I mean.
27:49
They just always had the game so downpacked. Like shout out to Jamal Crawford,
27:52
Man, I like him on commentary. He's been on those broadcasts in
27:56
the booth and he's been spinning facts and I like, I like what he's
28:00
been saying and he's coming from that. It's always good having a player like
28:04
fresh out the league because they always got that fresh take from a player's point
28:08
of view, and the player's point of view is usually where like the fan
28:11
is too, you know what I mean. Yeah, So you always feel
28:14
like it's one of your guys in there, you know. Yo. While
28:18
we're here on the basketball topic, Bro, did y'all see the Pacers fumble
28:23
the bag last night? What the Pacers? Everybody's asking me, I'm not
28:30
watching the motherfucker. I'm not gonna lie. I have zero interest in that
28:37
series. I don't like Boston and I don't like the Pacers, like I
28:40
don't like the Pacers from the point of view of like they're not winning,
28:42
dog like it's not happening, like they're just everybody said it was a good
28:47
game, though, it was a great game. Yeah, I should have
28:48
taken it. They should have taken it. Jalen Brown hit the last minute
28:52
three like that bought him the overtime and they ended up taking it back.
28:56
But it was a great game. Yeah, it wasn't what I expected.
29:00
I expected him to get stumped out, but it was nothing like that.
29:03
I'm gonna definitely tune into some games because you know, if there's no n
29:07
b A and that game is on, I'm gonna watch it. But it's
29:11
definitely not not a series I'm interested in. Man, Like I'm reading my
29:15
living room, what is that coming out on my soundbar? Not on my
29:29
sound bar. Yeah, got the motherfuckers player, Hey, man, I
29:37
like I like the the future of the next though. Man, I see
29:41
them healthy, healthy. I can honestly see them winning the championship, Dog,
29:45
Liken, the interest is there, It's real. It's not just a
29:51
rumor. Gianni's comes through, goes there, y'all wan, Bro, Yeah,
29:56
it's over if he's healthy, y'all won. So that'll be crazy,
30:02
definitely, Bro. That'll be brother though, Dog, That'll be Fins,
30:10
Minnesota wins, and then New York wins. Bro, It'll just be too
30:14
random, like new franchises, new blood, Like, well, this is
30:17
the first time in uh remember so it's been six years straight where six different
30:22
teams have won and now this year is going to be a brand new team
30:26
again. It's been the longest streak in the NBA that there hasn't been repeats
30:30
in seven years now. Crazy. I saw something set that I think last
30:36
year, the last year or the year before was like the first time that
30:40
it hadn't been Lebron Curry the Rant or Kawhi that won championship in like a
30:48
long ass time, like twenty years or something like. Dang, Bro,
30:51
that's crazy. Why the game that was like the manning Brady Roethlisberger and one
31:00
another. I forgot who the fourth quarterback for like ten years. It was
31:03
either one of those quarterbacks in this room. Yeah, it's all man the
31:08
end of it era for sure. Who y'all going for them? Were also
31:15
going for the Wolves. Yeah, I think I'm pulling the Wolves at this
31:18
point. I think, Bro, my guy nas Reid had me looking like,
31:22
see you see how how you back out my claims? Right clos was
31:27
hooping dog and they was talking about him. I heard him on the Bill
31:32
Simmons podcast. He was talking about nos Read and he's like, Bro,
31:34
if you watch nas Reed for like five minutes and you just never watch basketball,
31:40
you're not hip on the game. You would think he's one of the
31:41
best players in the league. And it's true dog like the way he be
31:45
playing in those minutes of dog like, and he gives them everything they need
31:49
defense, scoring like stops like bro, rebounding like yo. He is the
31:57
sixth man of all six men. Bro, I honestly don't see them losing
32:01
to any team. Like. I like the talent on the Mavericks, but
32:07
I just think Minnesota is too big here. Yo. Yeah, yeah,
32:09
like they said, they're calling at the Wizard of Oz because he gave cat
32:15
courage and a heart. Yo butt Dog, Carl Anthony Towns Dog. He
32:25
had a great game in that Game seven. I was like, damn,
32:29
bro, he literally did everything that he would mess up. He did the
32:32
opposite, like he had a I could not say anything. I'm not a
32:36
big fan of him, but he definitely stepped up in that Game seven in
32:38
a big way. And as soon as they won that game Dog, I
32:44
had a card listed on eBay, Carl Anthony Towns Genesis card. It's like
32:47
a it's a short print, so like it's very hard to get that card.
32:52
But it's Carl Anthony Towns and it's not a rookie, so it's it's
32:55
a random Genesis so it's rare. But it's like it's a player that nobody
33:00
really cares about. It's been sitting on my page for like two years.
33:04
Bro. As soon as they won that Game seven, I got the notification
33:08
the Genesis Anthony Towns has sold to somebody in Minnie, Minnesota, Bro,
33:14
somebody the home team was feeling froggy dog yo. Fact they won it,
33:20
he went straight to eBay, like, let's go that's it was so fun
33:24
I could have believed it, dog Like, I had to like double take,
33:28
Like really, somebody from Minnesota really bought this card as soon as they
33:32
won Game seven, He's like, I'm all in, is that's the ass
33:39
cat? That was crazy? Man? Well yeah, bro, we pretty
33:46
much hit all the topics that we wanted to talk about. Like, like
33:52
I said, the TikTok been doing this thing, bro, y'all been reading
33:55
the comments on there? Yeah, I read, but I read him too
33:59
late. But I've been read and it's always hitten. Yeah. Yo.
34:01
People are funny, man. People are a funny dog Like. The way
34:06
they react to stuff is funny like and just it's very interesting seeing how people
34:14
interpret what you say, you know what I mean, Like the way that
34:16
their mind understands what you're saying. Like for all the clips, like different
34:20
things we've all said, people have commented on and it's like nobody really said
34:25
that. Sometimes I think people just writing shit just to write shit. It's
34:31
about right, Yeah, I'm going to get into this AI shit with y'all.
34:37
I have some crazy shit to bring in that's going to bring a lot
34:40
in perspective. I think AI is it's going to be shoved down our throats.
34:52
It's already. Have you noticed in your Google searches? Have you noticed
34:55
in the comment boxes and Facebook? Have you noticed? Oh yeah, yeah,
35:00
that is starting to have that option there, Yeah, to search for
35:02
something. So you go to a post, you read a comment, and
35:07
you want to dig deep in it, and they already know you do.
35:09
So they have a button right there. Why what are these people commenting about?
35:13
Click it. You get the whole information, all the context. It's
35:15
gonna be everywhere, bro, and we have to prepare for it. We
35:20
need to use that ship to our advantage. We got to get ahead of
35:22
the curve. Hopefully next we're gonna bring out all the information to y'all.
35:25
Yeah, fact, we're there already, yo. Really like no BS,
35:30
I could I could create a a what's it called a process where it'll just
35:37
do all the editing for the podcast and upload it and send it to open
35:39
clip and do it all by itself. Yeah. No. My point more
35:45
is that people, you're gonna have no choice but to absorb these AI tools.
35:52
If you're going to be on social media, there's no way around it
35:55
anymore. If you're going to use the Internet in general, you're gonna you're
36:00
you're going to have to use AI. I thought I could just avoid it
36:02
and disable it and not use it if I don't want to, but now
36:06
there's no way around. I'm looking at it from the point of view of
36:07
like how much it could help you and save you time. But then like,
36:12
cause I'm like you, Joe, I'm thinking I was thinking about it
36:15
from that point of view, but then you think about it, it's like,
36:16
I'm gonna make stuff harder on myself just because I don't want to accept
36:21
the new technology that's coming, the same way that the generation before me didn't
36:24
want to accept the text thing and stuff like that. And we do that
36:28
like it's nothing, you know what I'm saying, because it was normal to
36:30
us. But then the new stuff is coming and we're like, nah,
36:32
you know what I'm saying, when, like I said, I could probably
36:37
already make a process that makes me not have to do a lot of menial
36:40
tasks that I do, but I'm just being too stubborn to figure it out.
36:45
So that's definitely a kick in to ask to myself right now, like,
36:49
bro, I need to start digging into this stuff AO and figuring out
36:52
how it can help me have a more productive day. Big facts, there's
36:57
so much time that we spend on bs do and if you're telling me you're
37:00
coming up with a way to automate that so you don't even got to do
37:05
it or worry about it, and it's gonna do it as good or better
37:07
than I would do it. Go ahead, bro, Yeah, there is
37:12
a there's a gentleman at my job who wants to automate every single thing we
37:17
do. But at the same time, that means we don't need the people
37:22
who do it anymore. So exactly, yeah, you can't take these people
37:27
out of business. Uh, but it's out there and there's gonna be a
37:30
thin That's what I'm saying. It's gonna be a thin line one day that
37:34
the ship that you do you don't need a person to do it anymore.
37:38
It's already even if it's yourself, it's already happening with the the you know,
37:44
the jobs that require less technical skills, Like look, if you pull
37:46
up to a drive through right now, you know not I wouldn't say nine
37:50
times, probably six times out of ten it's an automated system now yeah,
37:54
real, yeah, they have it now where you can put up to a
37:57
drive through and you say what they want, what you want, and there's
38:00
a machine talking back to you creating the order, and then when you get
38:04
to the window, there's a person there to collect the bread. But yeah,
38:07
I've seen that multiple times for different restaurants. Windy's has it a lot
38:12
of different places having now. And even if you go to like a subway
38:15
with a drive through, that thing has a screen like you drive through like
38:20
you're touching the screen and build touch your sub and everything yourself, like it's
38:22
not like anybody talking to you or nothing. Yeah, and they've had that
38:27
for a lot of years. Bro. Probably like no, lie, at
38:30
least five five, five to ten years, Bro that that subway screen thing
38:35
probably like five robot. I think there's gonna be a lot of people looking
38:40
for work man it already? Is it already? Is? Yeah? The
38:45
fact that that's one thing that really sucks about our generation in particular, that
38:50
we're in the generation where you can't just do one thing and thrive. You
38:52
know what I'm saying. You gotta do multiple things to make what somebody would
39:00
have made doing one thing twenty five years ago. You know, it's better
39:02
to be a Jack of all trades and the master of no exactly. It's
39:08
wild man. We were talking about a little bit in the chat too,
39:10
like how all the all the stuff that we were striving for by the time
39:15
we got to that that ended the finish line. It's like, oh,
39:17
all the rules changed in this world, so it doesn't it doesn't work the
39:22
same way. Like it's like, wait, hold on a second. Now,
39:25
now that I did all the work, you're switching it up on me.
39:29
No thanks, Like I'll be paying Social Security when I know it ain't
39:32
them for me? What kind of stuff? Crazy? Bro? Crazy?
39:36
Now? Yeah, we're definitely in a in a unique generation and unique timeframe
39:45
of just like the stuff that happened like in the world even you know what
39:50
I'm saying, Like we're gonna have some like just the transitions that we've been
39:54
through, Like when we talk when we're older, we're going to be like
40:00
we're going to be the people that were there through like for example, like
40:04
the people that were there through the first telephones, the first time they had
40:07
electricities TV. You know what I'm saying, first TV, first refrigerators,
40:12
Like like there's people, you know, there's people that grew up in that
40:15
period where they just had the first of stuff. That's like a staple now,
40:19
you know what I'm saying, Like you can't even imagine it not being
40:21
there, And we're going to be part of that generation too, Like yo,
40:24
we was there when the first cell phones came out, Like before that,
40:28
nobody had a cell phone snake on it. I've seen something the other
40:32
day that said no, no, I'm sorry. It was a podcast I
40:36
was listening to. It was like a Spotify Conspiracies podcast. They was talking
40:40
about some some UFO sidings in Phoenix and they were like, oh, you
40:45
know, giving the backstory on it, and they were like, yeah,
40:47
this sounds like something that might have been in like the seventies or the sixties,
40:51
like some old story, but it was merely three decades ago in nineteen
40:57
ninety seven. I was like, what did you just say decades? And
41:01
then they followed the sentence with nineteen ninety seven. I could it was like
41:07
those two things in my head didn't compute at first, and I'm like,
41:10
bro, yeah, it's been twenty seven years, like what times. I
41:15
was like, I was listening to those ceilings and he was Whenne was talking
41:17
about Windows Vista and I ball like Jalen Rose, I was like, this
41:22
was is crazy. It's a long time ago. I feel like I just
41:25
heard this like a couple of years ago. Windows Vista crazy. Yeah,
41:30
yeah, man, definitely was the time. That was the time. Bro.
41:37
Well yeah, man, anything y'all want to leave him with what's what
41:42
games you've been playing? We'll leave him with that. Anybody been on some
41:45
new games, mainly just Madden Bro Madden in two K, I mean and
41:50
duty. Oh what's up with the Madden game? What does Quincy have to
41:54
do to be able to be on camera too? Joe, Oh, let's
41:58
do it. You can stream two here right like the screen. No,
42:04
So what we're gonna do is Quincy is gonna have his own stream. I'm
42:07
gonna have my own stream. You could just mute one of us and watch
42:12
both of us, so you'll hear both of us and just you listen to
42:15
one of our fees, but you'll see both of us on the screen,
42:16
and we'll both be you'll have okay, and then put and then put put
42:21
the game screen as like, share that and then you can stream on stream
42:24
yard you. That's what I'm saying. I'll add the I'll add the the
42:30
window. You know what I mean, share the window. I'll just put
42:34
one of your windows there and have you know everybody's there on the screen.
42:37
You can see him calling his players. You can see me calling my place,
42:39
but we can't see each other calling each other's place. Yeah, we
42:44
gotta set up a test run, dog. Yeah, I'm ready, Bro.
42:47
I'm gonna be be home all day Monday. Chill. Want to be
42:51
in my computer. Oh yeah, that's a that's a good idea of Monday.
42:54
Dog. When we do the actual game, I'm getting dressed up.
42:59
I have I'm gonna have on top. Bro, I'm gonna be clean.
43:04
You definite gotta be holding the mic too. I got a mic right here,
43:07
Dog, I got that. You know I got that mic already.
43:08
Hey Yo, But I'm gonna be official, Dog, I'm gonna be commentating
43:15
my ass off. Bro, let's do it. Let's do it. I
43:16
might. I'm gonna see if I might even get a cold commentator so I
43:20
get you know what I'm saying. We can make an official official get a
43:23
play by play guy. I'll do color and I'll get a play by play
43:25
guy, because then you can capture each of our celebrations each of our disappointments,
43:32
it's gonna be it's gonna be good, each of our reactions. I'm
43:35
downats, Let's try to see that Monday Day, Monday for sure, we're
43:37
gonna run the test, and y'all stay tuned and stay but at Captain at
44:28
