• 0:50
  Speaker 3: And everybody always.
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: Says to me like, oh, you must be used to
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: it by now. I'm like, no, I have a freaking
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: mini tant from every morning when the alarm rings, like
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: I have to convince myself that this is the life
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: that I want, and I will get up and I
• 1:02
  Speaker 4: can go outside even though the sun has not come
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: up yet.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Positive information, Yeah, driving in in silence some ways, like
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: name five good things about what you're about to do,
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: and that's that's all that pulls me through.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Well, how are things in America, because obviously there's a
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: massive election coming up later in the year, Trump Biden.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: It's while they're a country so big, so many people.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: You've got these two I to age shame anyone, but
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: these people, they are a little bit older.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: I mean, let's call spe to speak. We have really
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: crappy options. They both kind of suck. They're both not ideal.
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: One is like senile and one's like a sociopath, so
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: they're both really not good. And then the sociopath was
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: just convicted.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: Of some felonies.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: So I'm pretty sure you can't even work at McDonald
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: if you have a felony, let alone be the president.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: But clearly maybe we'll change.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: That there like a third option, Like we were only
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: here about two options.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: I'm going with Taylor Swift. I feel like at this point,
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: Taylor Swift, I mean, I feel like we all kind
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: of agree that she could ring us all together.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: She could fix the world.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Now. And you're been doing your job for eighteen years,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: you must have come across Trump.
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he's been up a serious I've never interviewed him,
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: but yeah, he was up there when he was promoting
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: his reality shows and you know, running around and saying
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: you're fired. But yeah, Like I mean, he just used
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: to be like this cool, rich business guy that yeah,
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: you'd see at parties or at events, and you didn't
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: really think too much of him.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: He was just a rich dude.
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: And then when I heard that he was running for president,
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: I was like, no, he's not.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: This is BS. There's no way this is true.
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: And I ended up eating my words because it was
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: quite true.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: He's very good at turning stuff around. You know, like,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: for a lot of people, a controversy like this, being
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: convicted would be the end. You'd be off and canceled.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: But for some reason, it feels like he will make
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: this kind of work and even get more popular out
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: of it.
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, because he kind of appeals to like the
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: everyday moron, and we have a lot of in the US,
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: and like he says things that people wouldn't normally say,
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: and I think some people kind of like that, like
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: he's not super presidential. And also he's good at just
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: like talking in circles. Like he just says a lot
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: of words and then you're just like, oh, oh yeah, okay,
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: oh yeah, that sounds good.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: So, I mean he's got a lot of.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: People fought he'd make the perfect radio host just saying
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: some words. Hopefully they make seeds somewhere along the line.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: And the other thing I wanted to ask you two
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: about to Donald Trump, No one's really worried about the
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: fact that he's clearly cheated on his wife. How's Millennia
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: feeling about all of that?
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: I don't know. She doesn't speak.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: She's sort of I mean, she might be like a
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: wax figure or we can a Bernie. I'm not sure
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: she's even still with us. It's very bizarre. I do
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: feel bad for her. She's very stoic, but she literally
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: is like a frozen woman that just kind of is
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: there and I don't think she wants to be there,
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: but doesn't really have a choice.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: She's I mean, as every day passes, she's the day
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: closer to the big payout.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Our guess is maybe, Yeah, you have to hope that's
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: what's gonna happen.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: You have to hope that she's going to get a
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: large sum of money and then run away and sail
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: off into the sunset laka after it was.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: All worth it in the end.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: During a prediction for us, you know, like the early stages,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: A lot can change over the next couple of months.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: But who do you see, Like, who take this out?
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: I have a bad feeling it's gonna be Trump, even
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: though I feel like, even though like that's scary, I
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: just have the feeling that ever since he got convicted,
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: more and more people are like, no, this was wrong.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: They want to prove it wrong, and that somehow he's
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: gonna end up in office.
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: And I'm moving to another country. Can I come move there,
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: come do the show with us?
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll fill out the immigration forms for your mates.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: The hits that Jona Wan Ben Podcast.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Daddy or Pete Diddy. It's been in the news quite
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: a lot recently, subject of several lawsuits, including for sixual assault,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: a whole lot of very serious allegations against Puff Daddy.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we hit to New York Now Entertainment reporter Nicole
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Ryan from serious radio over there in the States, is
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: did he done?
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: Did he is done? He is done?
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: And he better keep himself very very quiet because I
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: don't know. I mean, I'm hoping that he's gonna convicted
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: of some things, but like there's just so much just accusations.
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: I mean, now that we have the video of Cassie,
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: which is horrific and like broke.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: My heart, and I think everybody's heart. I just don't
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: know if that.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: I think like the statute of limitations is too too long.
• 5:06
  Speaker 4: I don't know how they're gonna convict him, but there's
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: no way they're not building a whole case against him
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: because he's an animal.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: What happens with the station like yours, I measure you
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: would have played a lot of Puff Daddy P Diddy
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: songs over the years.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: What happens now, Yeah, back in the day, and I
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: mean if I mean he came up.
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: I have a very vivid memory. I was telling this
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: story recently of him coming up.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: So he opened up the studio door, he looked at
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: me and my co host, and he went oh hell no,
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: and then he turned around and walked out. I don't
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: know what we did, maybe we didn't look cool, But
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: guess what, I'm pleased at present day that we never
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: had to interview them and that nothing ever came out,
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: because god knows, we probably would have said something that
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: would have like sounded incriminating.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: So so what you would mean to interview him and
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: he just walked into We.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: Were yep, yes, and no one ever told us why
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: or what. But I mean, like, I'm okay with it.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: So we just laughed about it. It was like, you know,
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: you guys have probably crazy stories about liberties. That was
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: one of our crazy stories, and we were like, okay,
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: guess we're not doing Diddy, But I'm fine with that now.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, people did he did do a lot of people
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: didn't he did?
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: He did?
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And so you feel like all the rumors that
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: we are hearing, which are just rumors at the moment,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: there's there's probably a lot of truth to them.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: I mean I've been hearing rumors all sorts of things
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: regarding him and not great stories for years now, but
• 6:17
  Speaker 4: I mean I feel like you hear a lot of
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: these things with like rappers, like the Illuminati, and they've
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: all in this, like, I mean, you hear all this
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: crazy stuff and you chalk it up just the like, Okay,
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: it's like legend, like an old wives tale. But yeah,
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: I've heard these things for a long long time. Stories
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: go and then you and then you realize what happened.
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: I think he either killed people because those things were
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: gonna come out, because that's a rumor that all the
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: people that started Bad Boy with him back in the day,
• 6:40
  Speaker 4: that were there from the beginning, there's only one person
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: that's still alive, yes has Yeah. I mean again, this
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: is all a legend that he kind of took out
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: the people that could come out and say anything bad
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: about him.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: Well, and it's amazing that people can get away with
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: it for so long. You know, Weinstein was the same.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that there's been a lot of I
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: don't think those types of things or people can exist
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: that much anymore because of social media and like people
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: are like and they're they're willing to talk now, they're
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: willing to come out and be like, this is not.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: Okay that this happened to me, and this is not okay.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: That this person in power did this, And I think
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: that's becoming a bit of a trend and probably for
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: the good.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Oh we'll throw one more.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this guy Eminem because he's he's caught it back
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: now with an album that kind of throws back to
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: some original sort of slim shady Marshall mathis sounding songs well,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: the Stork bron Play, Little Baby Devil with the four
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: times can like a swum with a forehand? Did it
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: prove no one's from Jersey? Seems like he's He's always
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: been one to kind it almost quote controversy. What do
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: you think of his new album? Do you think he's
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: gonna be canceled or is it just kind of Eminem?
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: No one's canceling him, and I don't know why anybody's
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: like surprised that this new song came out and that
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: the rest of the album's probably probably going to be
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: exactly the same. He is him, this is what he does.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: No one's canceling him. He's very used to quote unquote backlash.
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: But again that's who he is.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: And guess what all like the kids now, they like
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: they could care less about him. It's all the like
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: the forty and fifty year olds are like, he's back.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: Well, have you seen have you seen? beIN's here?
• 8:09
