Pardon the Politics
nWo: News WITHOUT Order
What do Bad Bunny, the government shutdown, and Project 2025 have in common? Everything and nothing. In Episode 39, “nWo: News Without Order,” Jeezy and Chuck dive into the political circus of the week, starting with the uproar over Bad Bunny’s 2025 Super Bowl halftime announcement. Is ICE really going to show up at halftime? The crew doesn’t hold back.
From there, it’s a fiery breakdown of the ongoing government shutdown and why this one isn’t just politics as usual. With nearly a million workers furloughed and $15B in GDP lost per week, Chuck and Jeezy ask the hard questions: who’s really to blame? Is this a fiscal fight, or is Project 2025 quietly taking shape behind the scenes?
Sprinkled with hilarious tangents (Manny’s injury update, anyone?) and deep insights into healthcare policy, this episode mixes political heat with cultural vibes. No matter your side of the aisle, this is one episode you don’t want to miss.

00:02:59.540 --> 00:03:12.790

00:03:26.340 --> 00:03:30.180
Jeezy: Chuck, before we get into the episode, how are you today, brother? How are you?
52
00:03:30.180 --> 00:03:47.359
Chuck: Man, I am… Man, I'm amazing, bruh. My, so, as your listeners may or may not know, my oldest daughter is off to college. She is a freshman in college, and she came home this weekend, they have…
53
00:03:48.100 --> 00:03:48.490
Chuck: For example.
54
00:03:48.490 --> 00:03:48.980
Jeezy: Yay.
55
00:03:49.980 --> 00:03:52.210

56
00:03:52.210 --> 00:03:52.910
Jeezy: Okay, okay.
57
00:03:52.910 --> 00:03:56.699

58
00:03:57.130 --> 00:04:01.150
Chuck: what we traditionally are used to with fall break, you know.
59
00:04:01.220 --> 00:04:11.750
Chuck: getting out, say, Wednesday, have Thursday, Friday off, and the weekend, and return on Monday, theirs is flipped a little bit, so they have Monday and Tuesday off.

00:04:11.760 --> 00:04:29.049
Chuck: for fall break, and return on Wednesday, and as they end the week, they're beginning their homecoming week, starting next Sunday. So, theirs is a little flip from what we traditionally went through with college, but it's been great having her home.

Chuck: Miss my baby, and just glad to have her here. So it's been fantastic, man. Been fantastic.

00:05:03.230 --> 00:05:04.230
Chuck: I'm excited.
71
00:05:04.430 --> 00:05:06.379
Chuck: That excited, anxious.
72
00:05:06.380 --> 00:05:07.050

76
00:05:32.440 --> 00:05:41.810
Chuck: Exactly, exactly. What's wrong? She moaned or grunt, grunt, groaned, and you was like, hold on now, what's up?

87
00:06:19.380 --> 00:06:24.700
Jeezy: I thought… so, brother, I… and again, before we get into it, I had thought about you this week, brother.
88
00:06:24.700 --> 00:06:25.740
Chuck: Okay, yeah.
89
00:06:25.740 --> 00:06:36.059
Jeezy: There was an announcement that was made, that has the world and the internets and the socials going crazy, and it was announced that,
90
00:06:36.330 --> 00:06:37.740
Jeezy: Bad Bunny.
91
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:38.540
Jeezy: Oh.
92
00:06:38.540 --> 00:06:41.020
Chuck: Bye, bunny!
93
00:06:41.020 --> 00:06:42.220
Jeezy: que bonito.
94
00:06:42.390 --> 00:06:43.900
Chuck: Benito!
95
00:06:43.900 --> 00:06:52.000
Jeezy: We were gonna be performing at the Super Bowl, and it set a lot of people up in arms, brother, so I just wanna ask you, man, how you feel about Bad Bunny?
96
00:06:52.110 --> 00:06:52.950
Jeezy: performing.
97
00:06:53.230 --> 00:06:56.460
Chuck: Listen, so… Man.
98
00:06:56.810 --> 00:07:03.699
Chuck: let's see, what year is this? 2025. Had it been maybe 2020, 2019.
99
00:07:03.700 --> 00:07:04.320
Jeezy: Yeah.
100
00:07:04.540 --> 00:07:09.360
Chuck: I might have been like, man, I don't know if I want to see no Bad Bunny at the Super Bowl,
101
00:07:09.870 --> 00:07:12.770
Chuck: But I visited Columbia a few years ago.
102
00:07:13.390 --> 00:07:14.550
Chuck: And…
103
00:07:15.040 --> 00:07:31.190
Chuck: at that point, Bad Bunny was… his album was the theme music of the trip. Like, there was nowhere you could go without hearing his music. The club, the restaurant, the airport, everywhere you went.
104
00:07:31.840 --> 00:07:43.280
Chuck: And so now I'm a Big Bad Bunny fan, bruh, and I can't understand a single thing he says. Well, let me change that. I maybe know 4 or 5 words.
105
00:07:43.280 --> 00:07:45.130
Jeezy: Yeah.
106
00:07:46.200 --> 00:07:51.019
Jeezy: Yeah, you're better than me, because I don't think I… I understand when you say. I…
107
00:07:52.780 --> 00:08:10.240
Chuck: But it's such a vibe, man. Like, his last three albums, I rock with heavy. I went back and listened to some more of his music. I'm a Bad Bunny fan. My daughter is actually fluent in Spanish, and, you know, she's helped me out a little bit with words here and there, but
108
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:16.230
Chuck: Overall, I'm hyped, man. Bad Bunny is… he's a dope artist, he's probably…
109
00:08:16.560 --> 00:08:28.869
Chuck: the second largest music artist in the world. Like I said, we were in Colombia, and I went to Medellin and Cartaina, and his music…
110
00:08:28.960 --> 00:08:41.189
Chuck: was everywhere. Non-stop everywhere. And he's… it's just gonna be dope. And… he just hosted Saturday Night Live for the second time, this past weekend, and…
111
00:08:41.630 --> 00:08:44.379
Chuck: he can speak English, y'all. His albums…
112
00:08:44.850 --> 00:08:47.819
Chuck: He's Puerto Rican. Technically, he's an American.
113
00:08:47.820 --> 00:08:49.220
Jeezy: Right. Get over it.
114
00:08:49.290 --> 00:08:50.280
Chuck: But…
115
00:08:50.520 --> 00:08:59.599
Chuck: His albums and his music he does in all Spanish, he's more comfortable that way. Yeah. I respect it. But, it's dope music. It's dope music.
116
00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:01.620
Jeezy: My thing is that…
117
00:09:02.170 --> 00:09:08.399
Jeezy: where was all the uproar for the rest of the Super Bowl performers that weren't American at all?
118
00:09:10.040 --> 00:09:17.799
Jeezy: Huh? Where was all that… where was all that rain being? And… and my thing is, is there are…
119
00:09:18.340 --> 00:09:20.429
Jeezy: millions of Americans.
120
00:09:20.580 --> 00:09:23.309
Jeezy: millions. You can understand English. I mean, Spanish.
121
00:09:23.310 --> 00:09:24.560
Chuck: Mute.
122
00:09:24.560 --> 00:09:29.290
Jeezy: There is a… you don't become a global artist on the level of Bad Bunny.
123
00:09:29.660 --> 00:09:35.820
Jeezy: Without having a decent-sized fan base in just about every country.
124
00:09:35.820 --> 00:09:39.470
Chuck: Millions. Like, millions.
125
00:09:39.470 --> 00:09:57.909
Jeezy: So when people are like, I've never heard of them, yeah, you might not, but there are millions of Americans that rock with Bad Bunny. Like, get over it. So, I don't understand. You know, they've even said something about that, you know, ICE may be at the Super Bowl, which I was speaking to Manny about this, and I told him.
126
00:09:58.060 --> 00:10:16.339
Jeezy: I feel like this is South Park all over again, that episode they had about ice, and when they raided heaven. I said, man, they… bruh, how crazy would it be watching the halftime Super Bowl, and ICE rolls up at halftime, and, like, stormed the state… like, stormed the field, bruh.
127
00:10:16.340 --> 00:10:18.490
Jeezy: Listen. Bruh, you know how wild that would be?
128
00:10:19.030 --> 00:10:25.829
Chuck: But, and you know, I had that conversation with someone as well, and even online, and they…
129
00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:29.050
Chuck: You have to realize, this is the Super Bowl.
130
00:10:29.050 --> 00:10:29.700
Jeezy: Bruh.
131
00:10:30.160 --> 00:10:36.560
Chuck: This is not a regular game. This is not… even a World Cup game.
132
00:10:36.560 --> 00:10:37.190
Jeezy: Yeah.
133
00:10:38.030 --> 00:10:40.319
Chuck: Who are they gonna raid at the Super Bowl?
134
00:10:41.250 --> 00:10:44.220
Chuck: Because these are $1,500 tickets.
135
00:10:44.220 --> 00:10:45.499
Jeezy: Right, first of all…
136
00:10:45.670 --> 00:10:47.070
Chuck: to touch heaven.
137
00:10:47.330 --> 00:10:49.730
Jeezy: Bruh. If I'm illegal…
138
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:56.830
Jeezy: The last thing I'm about to spend my pesos on is going to the Super Bowl to get hemmed up.
139
00:10:56.830 --> 00:11:00.299
Chuck: Exactly, like, y'all talking about ICE raiding, bruh, who is…
140
00:11:01.670 --> 00:11:02.590
Jeezy: Bruh.
141
00:11:02.800 --> 00:11:03.730
Jeezy: It's crazy, bro.
142
00:11:03.730 --> 00:11:04.550
Chuck: But
143
00:11:04.550 --> 00:11:16.629
Jeezy: Why would they even, even… why is that even an option, of them even saying that? It's just the look of it, like, the Super Bowl is held as one of the biggest things, not just as far as what happens in the world, but just in America. Like, the Super Bowl is an.
144
00:11:16.630 --> 00:11:17.050
Chuck: Yes.
145
00:11:17.050 --> 00:11:25.480
Jeezy: Are you really gonna sit here and damper that with this political stunt to have ICE agents there?
146
00:11:25.590 --> 00:11:28.799
Jeezy: I mean, if I'm an ICE agent, I want to go, because then I get free… that's like free tickets.
147
00:11:28.800 --> 00:11:44.170
Chuck: Listen. Now, granted, there are… there are, several federal agencies that assist in security and are in place from a security standpoint. It's one of the largest global events
148
00:11:44.180 --> 00:11:50.210
Chuck: Ever, and they cannot allow for anything crazy to happen.
149
00:11:50.310 --> 00:12:03.050
Chuck: Because they're protecting the dollar. They gotta protect that dollar. And so, you know, it's gonna be commonplace to have federal agents there, but the notion that ICE is gonna be posted up to snatch up.
150
00:12:03.170 --> 00:12:05.430
Jeezy: Illegals, and as we've seen.
151
00:12:05.430 --> 00:12:07.289
Chuck: They're not snatching up
152
00:12:07.580 --> 00:12:20.079
Chuck: the criminals, misfits, and gang members. They're snatching up superintendents, and workers, and people who are paying into our tax bucket, but that's another subject for another time.
153
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:27.180
Jeezy: Yeah, where all these thugs y'all said that were here? Y'all seem like y'all having a hard time finding the thugs, and y'all just rounded up the regular people, like…
154
00:12:27.490 --> 00:12:29.169
Jeezy: I'm not understanding, bro.
155
00:12:29.170 --> 00:12:32.179
Chuck: But, you know, I thought about it, and I was like, man, look.
156
00:12:32.850 --> 00:12:38.710
Jeezy: Because, you know, Bad Bunny said that he didn't, you know, part of his tour, he did not do in the United States because of…
157
00:12:39.060 --> 00:12:40.639
Jeezy: Give me your advice, and all that.
158
00:12:40.640 --> 00:12:44.989
Chuck: Now that… that… is sensible, because…
159
00:12:44.990 --> 00:12:45.420
Jeezy: Beautiful.
160
00:12:45.420 --> 00:12:48.150
Chuck: For his concerts, Yes.
161
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:49.310
Jeezy: Yep.
162
00:12:49.310 --> 00:12:50.889
Chuck: But the Super Bowl?
163
00:12:51.660 --> 00:12:52.860
Chuck: Absolutely not.
164
00:12:52.860 --> 00:12:54.310
Jeezy: Absolutely not.
165
00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:59.739
Jeezy: Well, I… you know, Bad Bunny said on Saturday Night Live, he said, y'all got 4 months to learn Spanish.
166
00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:03.280
Jeezy: I'm letting y'all know now. But if I were him, you know what I'd do?
167
00:13:03.280 --> 00:13:04.240
Chuck: I idiot.
168
00:13:05.140 --> 00:13:05.889
Jeezy: You know what I do?
169
00:13:05.980 --> 00:13:06.700
Chuck: Go for it.
170
00:13:06.700 --> 00:13:08.040
Jeezy: The very first song?
171
00:13:08.670 --> 00:13:10.489
Jeezy: I'm coming out on that stage.
172
00:13:10.800 --> 00:13:12.069

00:13:23.740 --> 00:13:25.649
Jeezy: Let it fly. Don't throw.
178
00:13:26.170 --> 00:13:28.359
Jeezy: Just to be petty, bruh.
179
00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:40.760
Chuck: Just to be petty. Just to be petty. And I've seen a dude on TikTok, and he, black dude, and he's sitting there, and he's rewinding, trying to learn Bad Buddy songs.
180
00:13:41.520 --> 00:13:50.149
Chuck: He was like, no, I gotta get it right, I gotta get it right. He rewinding, he got the lyrics up. Hilarious. Hilarious. But yeah, you got 4 months, man.
181
00:13:50.150 --> 00:13:57.510
Jeezy: Regardless, look, I want people to understand, you don't have to… if you are a true connoisseur of music.
182
00:13:57.830 --> 00:13:58.880
Chuck: It's a vibe!
183
00:13:58.880 --> 00:14:02.629
Jeezy: You do not have to know the words, bro.
184
00:14:02.630 --> 00:14:03.040
Chuck: Listen.
185
00:14:03.040 --> 00:14:07.849
Jeezy: There are so many songs that I've heard that I don't know what they saying.
186
00:14:07.850 --> 00:14:16.459
Chuck: Not a single lick. But I'm feeling it. Not a single lick. Doggone Marc Anthony has a song that…
187
00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:24.570
Chuck: I can tell you now, I will butcher, chop up, and destroy the words of this song.
188
00:14:24.930 --> 00:14:27.340
Chuck: But I tell you, every time I hear it.
189
00:14:28.540 --> 00:14:39.989
Chuck: Tear it up, tear it up, but I'm there with them, boy. So, yeah, it's gonna be a time.
190
00:14:39.990 --> 00:14:50.000
Jeezy: We didn't care about not knowing, these words in Spanish. We was talking about something… We can eat!
191
00:14:50.020 --> 00:15:00.670
Chuck: Listen, we didn't know the words to Michael Jackson. Mama saying, mama sigh, I'm a mock you sigh. I learned at my big age that that's not what he was saying.
192
00:15:00.670 --> 00:15:02.030
Jeezy: Won't say that at all.
193
00:15:02.270 --> 00:15:07.799
Chuck: But that's what I said, and that's what I… that's what I wrote to. So, what you crying about now?
194
00:15:07.800 --> 00:15:19.790
Jeezy: Now's the problem. Man, we got… there's much more things to be concerned with, bruh, but… Way more. Bad Bunny, do your thing, bro. As for me at my house, yeah, we gonna be vibin', bruh. We gonna be vibin'.
195
00:15:19.790 --> 00:15:24.330
Chuck: La vi… living la vida loca. Right.
196
00:15:24.330 --> 00:15:31.569
Jeezy: I don't know who these people would be satisfied. I guess they won't, during their David Allen code to get up there and start doing halftime shows, I guess.
197
00:15:31.880 --> 00:15:33.280
Chuck: Listen, Garden Drew…
198
00:15:33.280 --> 00:15:33.670
Jeezy: Checking.
199
00:15:33.670 --> 00:15:38.450
Chuck: Garth Brooks had his time. He is old and done. Garth is chillin'.
200
00:15:38.800 --> 00:15:41.909
Chuck: like, the Dixie Chicks already…
201
00:15:41.910 --> 00:15:46.509
Jeezy: Hit y'all across the hill. Like, who do you want? Bruh.
202
00:15:46.890 --> 00:15:52.480
Chuck: Who do you want? Because if they got Taylor… if they got Taylor Swift, they would have been crying and complaining about that.
203
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:53.020
Jeezy: Yep.
204
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:56.889

00:15:59.840 --> 00:16:04.359
Chuck: Yeah, they got, they threw it to the side. You know, they called her a cat lady.
207
00:16:05.270 --> 00:16:06.559
Chuck: You know, so…
208
00:16:06.560 --> 00:16:11.789
Jeezy: You can't please them all, bruh. My grandmothers always said, baby, you can't make everybody happy.
209
00:16:11.790 --> 00:16:12.710
Chuck: You can't.
210
00:16:12.710 --> 00:16:13.409
Jeezy: But for my health.
211
00:16:13.410 --> 00:16:13.950
Chuck: at all.
212
00:16:13.950 --> 00:16:16.370
Jeezy: We'll be very happy. Bad Bunny, do your thing.
213
00:16:16.370 --> 00:16:17.700
Chuck: We lit.

Chuck: partying with them, bruh. That's my goal. That's my goal. This is gonna be a vibe.

225
00:17:02.430 --> 00:17:04.800
Jeezy: We all gave our prediction.
226
00:17:05.270 --> 00:17:08.550
Jeezy: Brother Chuck saying that he's giving it to the week of the 24th?
227

Chuck: Hold on, hold on, hold on, make a wish. 11-11, make a wish. I hate them, but I'm sorry.
232
00:17:36.890 --> 00:17:41.760
Jeezy: Bruh, and I can't even remember the logic behind how I got there, bruh, but it was something… it was something that deserved.

Chuck: Yeah.
237
00:17:51.130 --> 00:17:59.079
Jeezy: But, yeah, man, the government's in a shutdown with roughly 800,000 federal workers that have been furloughed.
238
00:17:59.250 --> 00:18:01.050
Jeezy: They're talking about…
239
00:18:01.530 --> 00:18:09.170
Jeezy: The, the economic estimate ranges up to $15 billion in lost GDP per week as this goes on.
240
00:18:09.490 --> 00:18:14.709

Chuck: I blame… the Democrats?
260
00:18:47.840 --> 00:18:48.520
Jeezy: Okay.
261
00:18:49.520 --> 00:18:51.969
Chuck: I blame the Republicans.
262
00:18:51.970 --> 00:18:52.650
Jeezy: Okay.
263
00:18:53.130 --> 00:18:55.330
Chuck: I blame the Trump administration.
264
00:18:55.330 --> 00:18:56.840
Jeezy: Everybody getting a piece of the pie.
265
00:18:56.840 --> 00:19:08.100
Chuck: Everybody getting a piece of the pie. So, here's why. So, the Democrats, as we stated before, have shown some gall to stand up.
266
00:19:08.590 --> 00:19:12.020
Chuck: finally to the Republicans and fight for…
267
00:19:12.510 --> 00:19:25.029
Chuck: that political leverage in regards to their fight for healthcare and the subsidies, of ACA and,
268
00:19:25.160 --> 00:19:29.210
Chuck: Give pushback in regards to the rising healthcare costs.
269
00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:35.329
Chuck: However, Had the Democrats not played…
270
00:19:35.790 --> 00:19:41.909
Chuck: what do I want to call it? Roulette, baccarat, blackjack.
271
00:19:42.260 --> 00:19:45.510
Chuck: Whatever, back in… was it 2018?
272
00:19:45.510 --> 00:19:46.920
Jeezy: when…
273
00:19:46.920 --> 00:19:53.339
Chuck: they could have locked these things in and not made them temporary, hoping that
274
00:19:53.560 --> 00:20:02.279
Chuck: by this time, it rolls around, and they… and they did it where, it wasn't 2010, 2020, I'm… my days, whatever. Who cares?
275
00:20:02.280 --> 00:20:02.740
Jeezy: Series about it.
276
00:20:02.910 --> 00:20:12.560
Chuck: Yes, and if you don't, you read something. Yeah, Sherry will you? But what they did was, they tried to align it with the Trump tax cuts.
277
00:20:12.560 --> 00:20:13.160
Jeezy: Yeah.
278
00:20:13.160 --> 00:20:25.009
Chuck: And they wanted to use that as a bargaining chip in negotiating the extension and making these subsidies more permanent.
279
00:20:25.530 --> 00:20:36.220
Chuck: Not banking on… the Republicans running the House, Running the Senate, Running the executive branch.
280
00:20:36.850 --> 00:20:41.759
Chuck: And even running the judicial branch, because they have everything.
281
00:20:41.760 --> 00:20:42.280
Jeezy: Yep.
282
00:20:42.950 --> 00:20:43.970
Chuck: So…
283
00:20:44.520 --> 00:20:51.110
Chuck: with them making this move, I can tell, and we talked about this last pod, they don't know how to play spades.
284
00:20:51.340 --> 00:20:51.920
Jeezy: Yep.
285
00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:55.990
Chuck: They don't know how to play spades. So, that's where they get the blame for me.
286
00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:57.480
Chuck: In that regard.
287
00:20:57.480 --> 00:20:59.700
Jeezy: Okay. Now we move to the Republicans.
288
00:20:59.700 --> 00:21:06.559
Chuck: and… Your big, beautiful bill… Is the catalyst for this shutdown.
289
00:21:06.730 --> 00:21:07.290
Jeezy: Yep.
290
00:21:07.290 --> 00:21:21.940
Chuck: and you want to stand on business and move forward. And my good… not my… our good brother, Brother Reverend Raphael Warnock, one of the senators from Georgia.
291
00:21:22.310 --> 00:21:31.700
Chuck: released… A video on social media showing… The drastic difference
292
00:21:31.820 --> 00:21:39.300
Chuck: in healthcare costs for a family of four, and this particularly pertains to me, because I have a family of four.
293
00:21:39.430 --> 00:21:46.789
Chuck: where under… if they chose the lowest level of coverage for ACA last year.
294
00:21:46.790 --> 00:21:47.410
Jeezy: Yeah.
295
00:21:47.410 --> 00:21:49.110
Chuck: Not 3 years ago.
296
00:21:49.250 --> 00:21:57.059
Chuck: Not 5 years ago. Last year, it was $559 a month for the family.
297
00:21:57.740 --> 00:22:02.870
Chuck: With the, stripping down of…
298
00:22:03.260 --> 00:22:13.239
Chuck: subsidies and different things. Now, that same family, same coverage, would be paying almost $2,200 a month.
299
00:22:13.350 --> 00:22:14.580
Chuck: for healthcare.
300
00:22:14.830 --> 00:22:15.370
Jeezy: Yep.
301
00:22:15.880 --> 00:22:17.460
Chuck: Which is incredible.
302
00:22:17.460 --> 00:22:18.020
Jeezy: Insane, bro.
303
00:22:18.020 --> 00:22:19.180
Chuck: Insane!
304
00:22:19.910 --> 00:22:29.290
Chuck: Insane! Like, why would you be paying the mortgage… a mortgage for a substantially sized house
305
00:22:29.840 --> 00:22:35.930
Chuck: just to be able to go to the doctor at a reduced rate. And you don't need… you gotta pay that even if you don't go to the doctor.
306
00:22:35.930 --> 00:22:38.770
Jeezy: Bruh, that's the crazy thing. Even if you don't go…
307
00:22:38.990 --> 00:22:39.820
Chuck: If you don't go.
308
00:22:39.820 --> 00:22:41.400
Jeezy: What's the half coverage, bruh?
309
00:22:41.400 --> 00:22:42.010
Chuck: Just to have…
310
00:22:42.010 --> 00:22:42.790
Jeezy: saying, when I
311
00:22:43.130 --> 00:22:56.710
Jeezy: video that he posted, I was really hoping that a lot of Americans… that that video circulated and was made viral on social media, because that is what Democrats are, in essence, fighting for.
312
00:22:56.710 --> 00:22:57.550
Chuck: Yes.
313
00:22:58.580 --> 00:23:01.710
Chuck: And so… so from that standpoint.
314
00:23:03.370 --> 00:23:08.070
Chuck: I applaud them for taking that fight.
315
00:23:08.070 --> 00:23:09.680
Jeezy: Yeah. Because…
316
00:23:09.850 --> 00:23:18.149
Chuck: It's… it's… it's mind-boggling that… You would have to be faced with the decision of…
317
00:23:18.760 --> 00:23:20.720
Chuck: Do I get healthcare coverage?
318
00:23:21.890 --> 00:23:23.079
Chuck: Or do we live?
319
00:23:23.260 --> 00:23:24.940
Chuck: Because that's what it boils down to.
320
00:23:25.450 --> 00:23:26.160
Jeezy: Facts.
321
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:38.990
Chuck: Like, you're making that choice about life, not do we go out this weekend, or go to the movies, because going to the movies is an expensive adventure, like, it doesn't make any sense.
322
00:23:39.220 --> 00:23:44.989
Chuck: You know, nothing leisure. You're… you're talking about livelihood at this point.
323
00:23:45.540 --> 00:23:47.730
Chuck: Now let's get to the Trump administration.
324
00:23:48.770 --> 00:23:52.130
Chuck: Now… Actually.
325
00:23:52.940 --> 00:24:01.060
Chuck: You could couple the Trump administration with the Republicans, because essentially the Republicans are just the Trump administration puppets.
326
00:24:01.060 --> 00:24:01.630
Jeezy: Yeah.
327
00:24:02.030 --> 00:24:03.700
Chuck: You are doing and moving.
328
00:24:03.700 --> 00:24:15.610
Jeezy: Except for Brother Rand Paul, bro. We gotta shout out Rand Paul on the pod. Yes, yes. He wanted a few that he, he, I believe when the vote came down to it, he was the… maybe the only Republican that did not vote.
329
00:24:15.730 --> 00:24:17.769
Jeezy: To keep the government open.
330
00:24:17.950 --> 00:24:24.679
Chuck: Yes, yes, Rand… I do tip my head at Rand Paul, because he stands on what he believes.
331
00:24:24.680 --> 00:24:25.270
Jeezy: Yep.
332
00:24:25.510 --> 00:24:29.289
Chuck: He does not, fold or crumble.
333
00:24:29.290 --> 00:24:29.690
Jeezy: Yep.
334
00:24:29.690 --> 00:24:44.350
Chuck: to be in the flock. He stands on what he believes, and I can do nothing but respect that, and definitely tip my hat to him. And he's consistent in that.
335
00:24:44.350 --> 00:24:45.330
Jeezy: Yep, yep.
336
00:24:45.330 --> 00:24:46.020
Chuck: It's not a…
337
00:24:46.020 --> 00:24:52.910
Jeezy: It's not a here-there thing. He's very consistent in that, and I respect that a thousand percent.
338
00:24:52.910 --> 00:24:57.009
Chuck: But yeah, the Trump administration… This is… this is your doing.
339
00:24:57.290 --> 00:25:01.360
Chuck: This is… this is… the big, beautiful bill was your baby. This is…
340
00:25:01.700 --> 00:25:09.730
Chuck: This is you. So, yeah, that's where I throw, but the Democrats are not absorbed at all in this.
341
00:25:09.730 --> 00:25:12.769
Jeezy: And I even told, when I was talking to Manny.
342
00:25:13.670 --> 00:25:20.389
Jeezy: Earlier, I was telling him about how, you know, I feel like the fight that the Democrats are putting out now.
343
00:25:20.650 --> 00:25:26.239
Jeezy: I wish they had that type of fight when they let that big, beautiful bill slide across the desk and didn't fight back.
344
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:26.690
Chuck: Facts.
345
00:25:26.690 --> 00:25:27.230
Jeezy: thing will be.
346
00:25:27.230 --> 00:25:27.930
Audio shared by Jeezy: Message!
347
00:25:27.930 --> 00:25:29.370
Chuck: respects.
348
00:25:30.560 --> 00:25:32.090
Chuck: Fags.
349
00:25:32.090 --> 00:25:35.809
Jeezy: So now you kinda… Gotta put up a fight with this, right?
350
00:25:36.280 --> 00:25:41.840
Jeezy: You kinda are backed in a corner where you gotta fight, but this is probably the Probably…
351
00:25:41.970 --> 00:25:47.839
Jeezy: The worst fight that you could have picked, because you're not gonna be… Blameless in this…
352
00:25:47.840 --> 00:25:48.180
Chuck: Yes.
353
00:25:48.180 --> 00:25:55.850
Jeezy: situation at all, because of what you've done before now. Well, I do applaud them for trying to have a backbone. I do.
354
00:25:56.100 --> 00:25:58.769
Jeezy: Because, good for you, finally.
355
00:25:59.220 --> 00:26:01.850
Jeezy: But it's a little too late, and…
356
00:26:02.430 --> 00:26:08.589
Jeezy: I had a problem, and I was speaking to someone I know that actually works in the federal government up in DC,
357
00:26:10.090 --> 00:26:13.260
Jeezy: I had a problem at how the administration
358
00:26:13.860 --> 00:26:21.689
Jeezy: Play this, where you go on the, government… government websites, and there is plasters.
359
00:26:22.140 --> 00:26:30.869
Jeezy: of how this is the Democrats' fault, and this, that, and the third, and even now, too, how the… they're going about doing it with
360
00:26:31.030 --> 00:26:32.689
Jeezy: Some of the…
361
00:26:33.030 --> 00:26:42.059
Jeezy: the funds that they are cutting back on because of the shutdown is democratic targeted as far as where they're going with that.
362
00:26:42.490 --> 00:26:48.329
Jeezy: to me, This is not a time to try to…
363
00:26:48.530 --> 00:26:53.069
Jeezy: point fingers, but try to get to a resolution if you truly care about the American people.
364
00:26:53.460 --> 00:27:06.370
Jeezy: Which I don't believe that this, administration is trying to do whatsoever. Trump claims to be the art of the deal, the main guy that can get the deals done, but, you know, he's…
365
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:15.569
Jeezy: sat down with… well, he had meetings where he was gonna sit down with Democrats, and he didn't want to sit down with him, then he sat down with them, and I think even when Chuck Schumer was talking about
366
00:27:15.970 --> 00:27:25.280
Jeezy: how, this was going to affect, from a healthcare perspective, the average American family. It was almost… it was reported that Trump was like, oh, I didn't know that.
367
00:27:25.280 --> 00:27:38.770
Jeezy: But… so we're still not gonna do anything about it? Like, you still don't want to hear what the Democrats are essentially fighting for when it comes to this healthcare coverage? And I was telling someone this week that…
368
00:27:38.930 --> 00:27:46.280
Jeezy: You know, this is a very critical time, because a lot of the aspects of the big, beautiful bill are going to start taking effect.
369
00:27:46.730 --> 00:28:04.890
Jeezy: within this period of time that we're in right now, with, with SNAP, food, food stamps, a lot of those things are about to start happening, and now you have this government shutdown, and it's being blamed that it's the Democrats' fault, but again, I don't believe that they are entirely, left to blame.
370
00:28:05.310 --> 00:28:13.140
Jeezy: And even the way… That it's being used, rather than some short-term furloughs.
371
00:28:13.340 --> 00:28:23.969
Jeezy: The administration is looking at this as, like, permanent job cuts, which is different than any government shutdown that we… this is not a norm when it's come to shutdowns before.
372
00:28:24.120 --> 00:28:27.209
Jeezy: So with this, this is telling me that this is more than just…
373
00:28:28.280 --> 00:28:38.450
Jeezy: a routine budget sh… like, standoff. This ain't about that at all. And you have Vault, which came into… He was the architect of Project 2025,
374
00:28:38.650 --> 00:28:58.130
Jeezy: come in, and I believe he works on either the Budget Committee or something like that, but he's, like, working on, you know, him and Trump met this past week about, okay, what jobs they're going to cut, and that was the whole… one of the aspects of Project 2025, but this administration told us that that president knew absolutely nothing about it, never heard of it, don't know.
375
00:28:58.130 --> 00:28:59.129
Chuck: He told us.
376
00:28:59.130 --> 00:29:04.359
Jeezy: He told us that, yeah. And he's literally walking down Project 2025.
377
00:29:04.620 --> 00:29:05.130
Chuck: Yes, sir.
378
00:29:05.700 --> 00:29:16.489
Jeezy: This is exactly what it was. He's using this to permanently cut jobs, because if they… and if they are doing that, which it sounds like there are Republicans that have very… they have reserves about that.
379
00:29:16.490 --> 00:29:16.810
Chuck: Yes.
380
00:29:16.810 --> 00:29:19.010
Jeezy: They don't think that that should be the case at all.
381
00:29:19.730 --> 00:29:27.480
Jeezy: But the problem I have is, why ain't more of y'all like Rand Paul then? You know what this man's idea is, you know where he's going with it, like… Yep.
382
00:29:27.480 --> 00:29:40.599
Jeezy: Y'all are essentially trading the devil for the witch. Like, you cannot play those games when it comes to the American people, so I applaud that the Democrats are standing up for this healthcare, for what they're fighting for, because they understand the real-life implications
383
00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:44.869
Jeezy: for, the American people, but this is…
384
00:29:45.530 --> 00:29:50.319
Jeezy: This is… I want our listeners to understand, this is not your typical government shut, shuttle.
385
00:29:50.320 --> 00:29:51.200
Chuck: At all.
386
00:29:51.200 --> 00:29:51.820
Jeezy: At all.
387
00:29:52.300 --> 00:29:59.010
Jeezy: What happens after this, or within this, is going to have real-life implications.
388
00:29:59.270 --> 00:30:14.139
Jeezy: to how we go moving forward, because even if there becomes a resolve, which I don't… I don't honestly know, Chuck, if there is one, because essentially, it looks like the only thing that's gonna happen is that the only thing that looks like it's gonna happen is Democrats gonna have to fold.
389
00:30:14.510 --> 00:30:15.520
Chuck: Somebody gonna have to fold.
390
00:30:15.520 --> 00:30:20.480
Jeezy: Somebody's gonna have… either side's gonna have to fold, but Democrats know what they have at stake if they fold.
391
00:30:20.700 --> 00:30:22.430
Chuck: Yes. Oh, God, it's ugly.
392
00:30:22.660 --> 00:30:23.270
Jeezy: If…
393
00:30:23.270 --> 00:30:24.040
Chuck: It's ugly.
394
00:30:24.340 --> 00:30:27.249
Chuck: ugly, and I think a poll came out this week that…
395
00:30:27.510 --> 00:30:31.280
Jeezy: Most of the… a majority of the country
396
00:30:31.810 --> 00:30:35.389
Jeezy: Is… is on board with extending those, those subsidies.
397
00:30:35.660 --> 00:30:41.050
Chuck: I think I may have seen the same poll that you saw, I think it was, like, 57, 58%.
398
00:30:41.050 --> 00:30:41.709
Jeezy: Yeah, it was close.
399
00:30:41.710 --> 00:30:42.230
Chuck: 11.
400
00:30:42.770 --> 00:30:46.300
Chuck: Yeah, we're like, yes, please. And it, it…
401
00:30:46.410 --> 00:31:04.079
Chuck: it turns out a good portion of them, and if I'm not mistaken, it was a poll, directed toward the MAGA constituents. Yeah. Because… and a lot of them, were like, yeah, because they use it.
402
00:31:04.520 --> 00:31:05.460
Chuck: Which…
403
00:31:05.460 --> 00:31:13.940
Jeezy: if I'm not… correct me if I'm wrong, but a lot of what he is… what he doesn't want from this healthcare perspective is essentially trying to…
404
00:31:14.410 --> 00:31:21.100
Jeezy: Is it to dismantle and basically turn that direction of getting rid of the Affordable Care Act?
405
00:31:21.260 --> 00:31:22.629
Chuck: Here's what it is.
406
00:31:22.630 --> 00:31:23.250
Jeezy: Okay.
407
00:31:23.250 --> 00:31:24.960
Chuck: What it boils down to.
408
00:31:25.360 --> 00:31:27.040
Chuck: He wants to put his name on it.
409
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:36.979
Chuck: He wants it to make it look like he has done something. It's very similar to, what act was that that Obama did?
410
00:31:37.550 --> 00:31:43.520
Chuck: Oh, man, I watched this video, and the guy with… broke it down, but it was a,
411
00:31:43.670 --> 00:31:52.550
Chuck: an act that Obama had done for veterans to increase their pay and increase,
412
00:31:52.820 --> 00:32:07.439
Chuck: benefits for… healthcare benefits for them. He did it, went into effect. Trump came in, essentially erased… erased the name of it, put his name on it, and it was the exact same thing that Obama had already done.
413
00:32:07.530 --> 00:32:19.769
Chuck: So what it boils down to is… because even during the campaign, it was… when they asked him, do you have a plan
414
00:32:20.320 --> 00:32:24.149
Chuck: in place if you were able to repeal Obamacare.
415
00:32:25.190 --> 00:32:29.660
Chuck: We got… What did he say? Concepts. Concepts of a plan.
416
00:32:30.530 --> 00:32:34.740
Chuck: What do you mean? You were trying to repeal Obamacare on your first term.
417
00:32:35.930 --> 00:32:38.400
Jeezy: If you were trying to repel it then, you should've known what you was gonna replace it.
418
00:32:38.400 --> 00:32:44.640
Chuck: You should have already had it laid out, but… and that's actually what helped the Democrats.
419
00:32:45.090 --> 00:32:46.409
Chuck: In that first term.
420
00:32:46.830 --> 00:32:50.540
Chuck: On the second half of his term, they ran on healthcare.
421
00:32:50.540 --> 00:32:51.140
Jeezy: Yep.
422
00:32:51.600 --> 00:32:58.750
Chuck: That was their… their staunch… Messaging across the board and allowed them to flip
423
00:32:59.010 --> 00:33:09.480
Chuck: the House, and give them that power so that they could, give pushback on those last two years of Trump's first term.
424
00:33:09.480 --> 00:33:17.320
Jeezy: That's very interesting that you bring that up, because it seems like they're following… they're adding… bringing that back up into their playbook going into the 2026 midterm elections.
425
00:33:17.320 --> 00:33:21.079
Chuck: Yes, sir. And… but here's the only problem with that.
426
00:33:21.870 --> 00:33:26.319
Chuck: It's so long until the 2020 midterm… 2026 midterm elections.
427
00:33:26.450 --> 00:33:33.950
Chuck: So, what are you going to do from… October of 25.
428
00:33:34.540 --> 00:33:37.020
Jeezy: To… That's a long time.
429
00:33:37.020 --> 00:33:39.489
Chuck: You know, to… to what?
430
00:33:39.820 --> 00:33:45.909
Chuck: October of 26, ramping into that final stretch of those elections.
431
00:33:45.910 --> 00:33:51.020
Jeezy: Yeah, because that does put you in a sticky situation with it being that far away, because if you give in.
432
00:33:51.180 --> 00:33:53.350
Jeezy: And you let the administration do what they want.
433
00:33:53.350 --> 00:33:54.540
Chuck: Oh my god.
434
00:33:54.710 --> 00:33:55.739
Jeezy: That's a blow.
435
00:33:56.190 --> 00:34:02.329
Jeezy: Because once all of that takes effect, then they point the finger and say, well, you voted to let it happen.
436
00:34:02.560 --> 00:34:03.530
Chuck: Exactly.
437
00:34:03.840 --> 00:34:15.800
Jeezy: Exactly. But if you hold out until then, bro, we're talking… this has to be… if it holds out… if this rolls out into 2026, this has to be the longest government shutdown.
438
00:34:16.570 --> 00:34:21.239
Chuck: Well, you know, now that… being that you said that, guess who has the longest government shutdown?
439
00:34:21.679 --> 00:34:26.240
Chuck: The longest government shutdown happened under what administration?
440
00:34:26.469 --> 00:34:29.099
Jeezy: I have to say it either gotta be Trump or Reagan.
441
00:34:30.010 --> 00:34:30.810
Chuck: Trump.
442
00:34:31.770 --> 00:34:33.110
Chuck: 35 days.
443
00:34:33.780 --> 00:34:34.190
Jeezy: Mmm.
444
00:34:34.199 --> 00:34:36.989
Chuck: 35 days.
445
00:34:36.989 --> 00:34:39.059
Jeezy: And I think he's had close to the most.
446
00:34:40.009 --> 00:34:42.519
Chuck: shutdowns, if I'm not…
447
00:34:42.520 --> 00:34:47.520
Jeezy: Reagan had more, but I think Reagan had, like, shorter shutdowns.
448
00:34:47.520 --> 00:34:48.879
Chuck: It was short of bursts.
449
00:34:48.889 --> 00:34:50.469
Jeezy: Like, hours or day, like.
450
00:34:50.469 --> 00:34:51.920
Chuck: what they… Yes.
451
00:34:51.929 --> 00:34:52.469
Jeezy: Okay.
452
00:34:52.469 --> 00:34:57.139
Chuck: But… but from… and I actually saw…
453
00:34:58.259 --> 00:35:08.619
Chuck: was it yesterday or earlier today? If this shutdown lasts 5 more days, Trump administration will have 50%
454
00:35:08.809 --> 00:35:13.209
Chuck: of the total shutdowns in U.S. history.
455
00:35:13.210 --> 00:35:26.739
Jeezy: Bro, but this is a thing that I have a problem with, because they even have it on, like, the agency's out-of-office replies, how it's the Democrats' fault. If I looked at the voting program… I was gonna get to that. Yes, sir.
456
00:35:26.740 --> 00:35:27.600
Chuck: Yes, sir.
457
00:35:27.890 --> 00:35:30.020
Jeezy: You, you were only short 3 votes.
458
00:35:31.580 --> 00:35:35.949
Jeezy: And you gonna blame a whole side? A whole side.
459
00:35:36.150 --> 00:35:37.370
Chuck: Go ahead, go ahead, I'm sorry.
460
00:35:37.370 --> 00:35:44.050
Jeezy: No, that's why I was just… you have the majority of the control. If I'm not mistaken, they only needed maybe, what, one or two?
461
00:35:44.290 --> 00:35:45.080
Chuck: Yeah.
462
00:35:45.080 --> 00:35:53.329
Jeezy: How is it the whole party, when you didn't even have all… I can see if 100% of your side voted yes, but they didn't.
463
00:35:53.690 --> 00:35:54.020
Chuck: Yeah.
464
00:35:54.020 --> 00:35:55.240
Jeezy: So how was it our fault?
465
00:35:56.040 --> 00:35:59.450
Chuck: And furthermore, it's illegal.
466
00:36:00.060 --> 00:36:00.640
Jeezy: Bruh.
467
00:36:00.850 --> 00:36:07.319
Chuck: It is illegal, according to the Hatch Act of 1939,
468
00:36:07.530 --> 00:36:17.719
Chuck: It limits the political activity of federal executive branch employees to ensure nonpartisan workforce and to protect employees from political coercion.
469
00:36:18.030 --> 00:36:26.150
Chuck: So, going on government websites, and it popping up saying, This is the radical left.
470
00:36:26.150 --> 00:36:29.420
Jeezy: It's illegal! And ain't nobody saying nothing, bro.
471
00:36:29.420 --> 00:36:40.309
Chuck: Nobody said nothing! There's no repercussion for these actions. Now, of course, back then, there was no internet for them to talk about, but it says government property.
472
00:36:40.310 --> 00:36:41.020
Jeezy: Yep.
473
00:36:41.020 --> 00:36:42.660
Chuck: And your website is your property.
474
00:36:42.660 --> 00:36:44.270
Jeezy: If it ain' a G-O-V.
475
00:36:44.380 --> 00:36:48.440
Chuck: If I try to go and hijack it and say it's mine, guess what? I'm getting locked up.
476
00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:50.349
Jeezy: Get… bruh, they at your door.
477
00:36:51.420 --> 00:36:57.009
Jeezy: How is this even… and bruh, this… let me take it even a step further.
478
00:36:57.790 --> 00:37:03.150
Jeezy: Weren't y'all the ones that were talking about how radical the message is from Democrats?
479
00:37:03.620 --> 00:37:10.070
Jeezy: We're… we're invoking people to political violence when we talked about Charlie Kirk.
480
00:37:11.100 --> 00:37:15.959
Jeezy: What are you doing by plastering on these government agencies? First of all, let me tell you this.
481
00:37:16.610 --> 00:37:17.220
Chuck: people did.
482
00:37:17.220 --> 00:37:19.430
Jeezy: I don't even look at these websites, so you…
483
00:37:19.430 --> 00:37:21.420
Chuck: Not at all.
484
00:37:21.420 --> 00:37:29.670
Jeezy: Somebody, bruh, I know, bruh, I could tell… I could say, hey, Sir MAGA.
485
00:37:30.100 --> 00:37:33.669
Jeezy: You, you individual who supports Trump, can you please pull up…
486
00:37:33.780 --> 00:37:35.959
Jeezy: the Health and Human Services government.
487
00:37:35.960 --> 00:37:38.620
Chuck: It's like… Listen.
488
00:37:38.620 --> 00:37:46.410
Jeezy: They'd have to take me downtown to the local library, the rent, to get… they… Library.
489
00:37:46.410 --> 00:37:50.649
Chuck: We could sign up for 30 minutes on the computer.
490
00:37:51.340 --> 00:38:03.409
Chuck: Exactly. It's only two government… it's only two government sites I could tell you about without… with my eyes closed, with my eyes open, and that's studentaid.gov.
491
00:38:03.410 --> 00:38:15.270
Chuck: No, I don't even like to go to their page. And USAJobs.gov, and that was before all this foolishness, you know, looking for a federal job when it was
492
00:38:15.430 --> 00:38:22.819
Chuck: sweet to be a federal worker, but that's it. Don't nobody know White House doctrine. Ain't nobody.
493
00:38:22.820 --> 00:38:24.350
Jeezy: Hold up the White House, bruh.
494
00:38:24.630 --> 00:38:29.560
Jeezy: But I… again, to what you said, it's dangerous, and it's illegal.
495
00:38:30.990 --> 00:38:37.659
Jeezy: We're seeing now that that's… that's okay. That is perfectly fine. Bruh, even on Trump's social media.
496
00:38:37.790 --> 00:38:43.740
Jeezy: He had a AI-generated video with the Reaper song.
497
00:38:43.740 --> 00:38:44.520
Chuck: Yes.
498
00:38:44.520 --> 00:38:51.149
Jeezy: with Vought, who is the architect of Project 2025, coming through… Clean it all down.
499
00:38:51.150 --> 00:38:52.250
Chuck: Oh, bruh.
500
00:38:52.630 --> 00:38:55.910
Jeezy: Coming through, like, the Grim Reaper, getting all this stuff.
501
00:38:56.400 --> 00:38:57.310
Chuck: All of it.
502
00:38:58.780 --> 00:38:59.600
Jeezy: People.
503
00:39:00.350 --> 00:39:03.360
Jeezy: You ain't, you ain't gotta dig for this stuff.
504
00:39:03.360 --> 00:39:04.389
Chuck: They see their face!
505
00:39:04.730 --> 00:39:12.619
Jeezy: It's in your face. Like my dad used to say, y'all… my dad used to say this all the time, stop pissing on my leg and telling me it's raining.
506
00:39:12.620 --> 00:39:19.120
Chuck: Bruh, it's right in front of you, like… I think of coming to America. Indy face!
507
00:39:21.410 --> 00:39:30.070
Chuck: what? Come on, y'all. And it's not that hard. And for me, the frustration is… again.
508
00:39:30.460 --> 00:39:32.480
Chuck: This is common sense stuff.
509
00:39:32.480 --> 00:39:33.300
Jeezy: It is.
510
00:39:33.650 --> 00:39:34.269
Chuck: Should be out.
511
00:39:34.270 --> 00:39:35.290
Jeezy: Be offended, bro.
512
00:39:35.700 --> 00:39:36.720
Jeezy: I'm highly offended.
513
00:39:36.720 --> 00:39:38.310
Chuck: Highly offended, because you…
514
00:39:38.310 --> 00:39:38.889
Jeezy: I'm that stupid.
515
00:39:39.240 --> 00:39:41.740
Chuck: You're questioning my intelligence.
516
00:39:41.740 --> 00:39:47.180
Jeezy: Bruh, and I feel like… and that has always been my problem when it comes to…
517
00:39:47.780 --> 00:39:56.540
Jeezy: normal people in politics. First of all, the stuff that is going on around you is… you can… you can get on… if you don't have internet.
518
00:39:56.720 --> 00:40:01.810
Jeezy: If you got a local library, there is a book that you can learn how the government works.
519
00:40:01.950 --> 00:40:06.689
Jeezy: And how all these things take place. You ain't gotta listen to a man tell you.
520
00:40:06.690 --> 00:40:07.260
Chuck: Nope.
521
00:40:07.260 --> 00:40:11.829
Jeezy: You can go… Get this info… well, if you paid attention in school…
522
00:40:12.090 --> 00:40:13.670
Chuck: That too. That too.
523
00:40:14.280 --> 00:40:14.730
Jeezy: If you pay.
524
00:40:14.730 --> 00:40:17.679
Chuck: And you know half of this stuff.
525
00:40:17.680 --> 00:40:18.620
Jeezy: But he, he…
526
00:40:18.620 --> 00:40:21.110
Chuck: If you paid attention to Schoolhouse Rocks.
527
00:40:21.110 --> 00:40:21.980
Jeezy: Oh, bruh.
528
00:40:22.330 --> 00:40:23.980
Chuck: Blue House Rock told you about this?
529
00:40:23.980 --> 00:40:26.779
Jeezy: Well, then, bruh, if you ain't get up at a certain time, though, brother.
530
00:40:26.890 --> 00:40:29.710
Chuck: You had to get, you had to get up out of that bed.
531
00:40:29.710 --> 00:40:30.350
Jeezy: You had to get up.
532
00:40:30.350 --> 00:40:32.489
Chuck: If you don't see that family…
533
00:40:32.490 --> 00:40:37.970
Jeezy: Did they let you sleep all day? Say, yeah, we got up on the weekends like we were going to school still.
534
00:40:37.970 --> 00:40:49.869
Chuck: Had to. Had to. So, of course, I'm up at 7.30 on a Saturday, what you mean? Now, I did have at least until 8.30, almost 9, but… Man, you still had to get up, you had to get her tail up.
535
00:40:49.870 --> 00:40:55.950
Jeezy: My girlfriend used to make us get fully dressed on a Saturday. I was like, bro, we ain't going nowhere today. Why I got jeans on at 8 o'clock?
536
00:40:55.950 --> 00:41:03.009
Chuck: Listen, I used to hate… Put some clothes on. Why we ain't going nowhere? We ain't going nowhere.
537
00:41:03.010 --> 00:41:07.229
Jeezy: I got jeans. Look like something. I got jeans with starch on them.
538
00:41:07.460 --> 00:41:12.149
Jeezy: in tennis shoes, laced up at 8.15 in the morning on a Saturday.
539
00:41:12.150 --> 00:41:13.679
Chuck: Under the couch.
540
00:41:13.820 --> 00:41:16.279
Jeezy: Sitting on the couch, looking goofy.
541
00:41:17.670 --> 00:41:18.430
Chuck: Yeah, man.
542
00:41:18.430 --> 00:41:22.830
Jeezy: But bruh, this information to y'all, that has always been my issue.
543
00:41:23.140 --> 00:41:35.889
Jeezy: is that, okay, Trump can tell us whatever. Both sides can tell us. I'm not even gonna put this on one side. Democrats can tell us whatever, Republicans can tell us whatever, but you, as an individual with a mind.
544
00:41:36.150 --> 00:41:44.579
Jeezy: can go and decipher what truth is. And if you can't, if you got the Holy Ghost, just let it discern.
545
00:41:47.160 --> 00:41:49.859
Jeezy: Let it discern for you what's true.
546
00:41:49.860 --> 00:41:50.400
Chuck: Yes.
547
00:41:50.400 --> 00:41:53.359
Jeezy: But don't let these people play in your face.
548
00:41:53.580 --> 00:42:04.409
Jeezy: as if you're just that stupid, and believe that this is this person's fault, or that person's fault. You can even look up how your fellow congressmen and women voted.
549
00:42:04.410 --> 00:42:05.309
Chuck: Voted, yes.
550
00:42:05.310 --> 00:42:23.259
Jeezy: towards this, so you know, when they come back telling you they need you to re-elect them to go back to Washington again, you know whether they fell or not. So when your family, as that video that Senator Warnock posted, when you went from paying $500 to $2,500 on your healthcare, you know who in your state voted for what.
551
00:42:23.710 --> 00:42:27.420
Chuck: And for me, $500 is too much for healthcare.
552
00:42:27.420 --> 00:42:28.260
Jeezy: Too much, bro.
553
00:42:28.260 --> 00:42:37.279
Chuck: It's insane, but let me… for the listeners, I want to break it down for you, and give you an idea.
554
00:42:37.950 --> 00:42:50.290
Chuck: how this works. So, in the shutdown, as Jeezy mentioned earlier, the furlough, when people are furloughed, it's a mandatory, temporary, unpaid leave of absence.
555
00:42:50.650 --> 00:42:56.849
Chuck: It's kind of like a layoff, where they can bring you back,
556
00:42:57.060 --> 00:43:05.190
Chuck: Trump had threatened to have people just fired. I did read a report that some agencies are telling their employees just to come to work.
557
00:43:05.440 --> 00:43:13.019
Chuck: Still come to work, and give… they have the burden of still coming to work, and not get paid.
558
00:43:13.270 --> 00:43:20.570
Chuck: Still gotta pay… still gotta pay for gas, still gotta pay for your lunch, still gotta pay for healthcare, but you still gotta come to work.
559
00:43:20.570 --> 00:43:22.430
Jeezy: Oh, I'ma make y'all send me home.
560
00:43:24.760 --> 00:43:28.760
Chuck: Getting that cut up. I'm knocking something off somebody's desk.
561
00:43:28.760 --> 00:43:35.539
Jeezy: Bruh, what? You… not… Somebody told a lie one day. If you think I'm coming in…
562
00:43:35.800 --> 00:43:37.259
Jeezy: And not getting paid.
563
00:43:37.400 --> 00:43:37.910
Chuck: It's.
564
00:43:37.910 --> 00:43:40.299
Jeezy: still give you quality work? Oh, no.
565
00:43:40.300 --> 00:43:57.630
Chuck: Sure. So, speaking to that, so some of the places that are closed or shut down, you got your federal museums, your federal research projects, processing of certain government benefits, national parks and monuments, and IRS taxpayer services.
566
00:43:57.890 --> 00:44:04.160
Chuck: But here are some services that are still active and have to… listen to me.
567
00:44:04.580 --> 00:44:06.419
Chuck: HAVE to report to work.
568
00:44:07.390 --> 00:44:08.150
Chuck: Matt?
569
00:44:08.320 --> 00:44:13.820
Chuck: Maybe you come, maybe you don't. You have to report to work. And you're not getting paid.
570
00:44:14.790 --> 00:44:18.290
Chuck: Social Security and Medicare benefit workers.
571
00:44:19.580 --> 00:44:22.130
Chuck: The military and federal law enforcement.
572
00:44:23.720 --> 00:44:27.580
Chuck: U.S. Postal Service, who'll already be struggling to get the job done, right?
573
00:44:27.580 --> 00:44:28.789
Jeezy: God knows, yeah.
574
00:44:29.930 --> 00:44:37.800
Chuck: this one has me hesitant to go anywhere, because you have air traffic control and TSA.
575
00:44:37.920 --> 00:44:40.520
Jeezy: Oh, yeah, no. Do you have to report to work.
576
00:44:40.600 --> 00:44:42.040
Chuck: And they're not getting paid.
577
00:44:42.240 --> 00:44:44.039
Jeezy: And they already be having bad attitudes.
578
00:44:44.040 --> 00:44:45.300
Chuck: Already got bad attitude.
579
00:44:45.300 --> 00:44:52.760
Jeezy: And they always short-headed. They short-staffed already. Bruh, they're not… no, it ain't… yeah. Glad I ain't got no flight coming up no time soon.
580
00:44:53.600 --> 00:45:00.000
Chuck: So, and then you have your U.S. passport agencies, and I have a story about that, but…
581
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:00.390
Jeezy: Bruh.
582
00:45:00.600 --> 00:45:05.660
Jeezy: In fact, my story about that involves Puerto Rico.
583
00:45:05.660 --> 00:45:06.630
Chuck: Bye Bunny!
584
00:45:06.630 --> 00:45:08.310
Jeezy: Bonito.
585
00:45:08.310 --> 00:45:17.029
Chuck: But yeah, so those are some, some workers, who are deemed essential and still have to work.
586
00:45:17.370 --> 00:45:19.009
Chuck: But not get paid.
587
00:45:19.200 --> 00:45:20.080
Jeezy: Yikes.
588
00:45:20.080 --> 00:45:24.680
Chuck: how do you all feel about that? Because how… go to your job, and they tell you.
589
00:45:24.860 --> 00:45:31.150
Chuck: Hey, you know, I need you to come to work, but… You can't get no… we…
590
00:45:31.230 --> 00:45:32.650
Jeezy: We'll pay you…
591
00:45:32.850 --> 00:45:33.970
Chuck: Eventually.
592
00:45:34.420 --> 00:45:37.629
Jeezy: Right. This is what it boils down to, because these folks will get paid.
593
00:45:38.220 --> 00:45:48.539
Jeezy: Can you imagine having to go to work not getting paid, and your supervisor somehow write you up for something silly? Bruh, I flipped that whole place outside there. We ain't even getting paid in here, you gonna write this?
594
00:45:49.130 --> 00:45:56.010
Chuck: I had a situation, I used to work in the banking industry, and I had a situation where…
595
00:45:56.270 --> 00:46:00.639
Chuck: I'm gonna be honest, full disclosure, it was my fault. I didn't submit my time.
596
00:46:01.400 --> 00:46:06.020
Chuck: But, so when payday came, My check didn't hit.
597
00:46:06.770 --> 00:46:11.869
Chuck: And I'm like, what's going on? And he was like, well, your time was submitted.
598
00:46:12.040 --> 00:46:15.009
Chuck: Well, y'all had access to it, why y'all ain't do it?
599
00:46:15.940 --> 00:46:16.380
Jeezy: Bruh.
600
00:46:16.380 --> 00:46:18.269
Chuck: Fully, it's my responsibility.
601
00:46:19.010 --> 00:46:22.860
Chuck: But I told them, if I don't get paid, I ain't coming to work.
602
00:46:23.020 --> 00:46:25.380
Jeezy: Bruh. Thanks.
603
00:46:25.380 --> 00:46:29.950
Chuck: Okay, it's my fault, but I'm not about to be here working for free.
604
00:46:30.930 --> 00:46:45.269
Chuck: I need my money. Now, granted, thankfully, I had my money on, as the kids say, before I left that day, you know? So, that problem was resolved, but that's not the case here.
605
00:46:46.170 --> 00:46:47.700
Chuck: And you know what's crazy?
606
00:46:49.480 --> 00:46:51.180
Chuck: Trump still gets his check.
607
00:46:51.180 --> 00:46:51.920
Jeezy: Bruh.
608
00:46:52.560 --> 00:46:54.170
Chuck: Members of Congress still get their checks?
609
00:46:56.350 --> 00:46:58.289
Chuck: Why y'all still getting paid?
610
00:46:58.290 --> 00:46:58.830
Jeezy: Yep.
611
00:46:59.550 --> 00:47:04.419
Jeezy: Why don't y'all… yup. Put that money in the bucket, y'all can pay these people. You'll need it what you need your.
612
00:47:04.420 --> 00:47:05.610
Chuck: You don't need it!
613
00:47:07.520 --> 00:47:14.189
Chuck: You don't need it. Why you still getting paid, but these folks can't get paid, and they gotta go to work. And… and y'all not at work!
614
00:47:14.190 --> 00:47:15.489
Jeezy: Not even at work, bruh.
615
00:47:16.720 --> 00:47:31.049
Chuck: Not even that word, and I seen the video, I think it's the video that Manny shared with us, that, or maybe not, I think I shared it in the group chat, that Mike Johnson is talking about not bringing, calling them into session next week.
616
00:47:32.100 --> 00:47:32.630
Chuck: And if
617
00:47:33.160 --> 00:47:42.380
Chuck: the reason he's not… part of the reason he's not is because if he does, they have to swear in, old girl from Arizona.
618
00:47:42.380 --> 00:47:45.129
Jeezy: Yup, and remember, I was talking to Mandy about that, which is…
619
00:47:45.130 --> 00:47:51.409
Chuck: Did they swear her in? That's 218. The 218 says Epstein.
620
00:47:51.960 --> 00:47:55.400
Jeezy: If we get to 218, we gotta drop the Epstein, bruh.
621
00:47:55.400 --> 00:47:56.460
Chuck: Guys are dropped dead sneakers.
622
00:47:56.460 --> 00:48:02.050
Jeezy: And I was actually talking, because I can't understand for the life of me, how is that even…
623
00:48:02.910 --> 00:48:10.370
Jeezy: How's that even legal, bruh? Like, you have a person who has been elected, been appointed, and you are holding off doing… for that person?
624
00:48:10.370 --> 00:48:10.760
Chuck: for them.
625
00:48:10.760 --> 00:48:25.150
Jeezy: do what they have been elected to do, because… By their people. By their people. Essentially, you're telling the people of Arizona that elected her, screw you, because I don't want her coming here because she's gonna release the fire. Well, I thought there wasn't nobody in there.
626
00:48:25.830 --> 00:48:27.450
Audio shared by Jeezy: I thought that Trump won it.
627
00:48:30.670 --> 00:48:32.390
Audio shared by Jeezy: Ay.
628
00:48:32.390 --> 00:48:38.250
Jeezy: Maybe Trump is in there, and maybe that's why we've been seeing J.D. Vance on the scene a lot more.
629
00:48:38.520 --> 00:48:40.970
Chuck: Hey, JD Vance has been smiling real hard lately.
630
00:48:40.970 --> 00:48:43.570
Jeezy: Hey, bruh, he smiling a little too hard for me, bruh.
631
00:48:43.730 --> 00:48:49.660
Chuck: J.D. Vance been smart. There's one of three things with J.D. Vance right now.
632
00:48:50.250 --> 00:48:54.779
Chuck: Number one, he knows to what extent Trump is in them Epstein files.
633
00:48:55.680 --> 00:48:57.900
Chuck: Number two, he knew Trump had a stroke.
634
00:48:58.100 --> 00:49:03.679
Chuck: when they were hiding him from the, from the public eye, like Drake was hiding his son.
635
00:49:05.700 --> 00:49:10.799
Chuck: Or number three, His wife is giving him some good love in that home.
636
00:49:10.800 --> 00:49:11.440
Jeezy: Bruh.
637
00:49:11.710 --> 00:49:14.100
Chuck: And he feeling good about himself.
638
00:49:14.760 --> 00:49:15.470
Jeezy: Something.
639
00:49:15.780 --> 00:49:18.219
Chuck: I don't know about this person's life, so I'm gonna go with one or two.
640
00:49:18.220 --> 00:49:30.609
Jeezy: I've been taking door number one, because he's been doing a whole lot of singing out here. He's been talking, he's been saying this, and we know how Trump don't like that spotlight to be taken from him.
641
00:49:30.610 --> 00:49:31.310
Chuck: Listen.
642
00:49:31.400 --> 00:49:41.260
Jeezy: Can't stand it. JD is moving like a man that's getting ready, because he know my time coming, and if all this started to drop, especially government shutdown.
643
00:49:42.000 --> 00:49:49.290
Jeezy: I believe the credit reports for the U.S. is supposed to be coming out pretty soon. Yes. From what we've been told.
644
00:49:49.680 --> 00:49:52.220
Jeezy: The likelihood is that our, our credit.
645
00:49:52.900 --> 00:49:53.830
Chuck: Credit rating.
646
00:49:53.830 --> 00:49:54.700
Jeezy: Going down.
647
00:49:54.900 --> 00:49:55.470
Chuck: Yes, sir.
648
00:49:55.470 --> 00:49:59.450
Jeezy: Globally, we haven't been looking as well as we possibly can.
649
00:49:59.930 --> 00:50:10.209
Chuck: We hadn't looked good… looked good globally since they elected that man in the office. We are a… we are a laughing stock and being clowned by other world leaders.
650
00:50:10.210 --> 00:50:12.500
Jeezy: Was it Albania?
651
00:50:12.500 --> 00:50:16.069
Chuck: They were jumping around… Something with an A, yeah.
652
00:50:16.070 --> 00:50:16.500
Jeezy: around with you.
653
00:50:16.500 --> 00:50:18.399
Chuck: I don't know.
654
00:50:18.400 --> 00:50:20.849
Jeezy: Right, bruh, they were joking, acting like they were Trump.
655
00:50:21.240 --> 00:50:24.150
Chuck: Marco… was it, was it? Yeah.
656
00:50:24.150 --> 00:50:24.780
Jeezy: Bruh.
657
00:50:24.780 --> 00:50:26.210
Chuck: You should apologize to me.
658
00:50:26.210 --> 00:50:26.930
Jeezy: Yep.
659
00:50:28.120 --> 00:50:29.040
Chuck: I go, come on.
660
00:50:29.040 --> 00:50:34.369
Jeezy: Bruh, they clowning you, bruh, they clowning you. So, hey, JD Vance might be getting ready, bruh.
661
00:50:34.370 --> 00:50:39.099
Chuck: JD knows. He knows something, bruh. JD knows something.
662
00:50:39.100 --> 00:50:44.710
Jeezy: man, you know, I'm interested to see how long this lasts, and if Johnson doesn't bring
663
00:50:45.130 --> 00:50:50.109
Jeezy: Bring everything back into session, and it just continues, because if they ain't in session, can't vote.
664
00:50:51.250 --> 00:50:51.940
Chuck: Caleb.
665
00:50:51.940 --> 00:51:04.930
Jeezy: I think they threw a bill out there where the Democrat, threw one out there, it was voted down, GOP threw one out there, it was voted down, we ain't got nowhere. Doesn't look like we're getting anywhere anytime soon, everybody's sitting at home.
666
00:51:05.370 --> 00:51:11.660
Jeezy: And Trump is with Vault, invoking Project 2025, so we'll see how long
667
00:51:11.760 --> 00:51:20.030
Jeezy: It goes on. For our listeners, y'all hit us up on the socials, y'all tell us how long y'all think this is gonna carry on. Are we gonna get somewhere? Are we gonna get a deal?
668
00:51:20.140 --> 00:51:28.880
Jeezy: Are you standing with the Democrats and fighting for the healthcare? Do you believe it's the Democrats' fault? Who do you think is to blame? Just let us know how you feel on this, because,
669
00:51:29.070 --> 00:51:30.519
Jeezy: I think we're gonna be here for a while.
670
00:51:31.170 --> 00:51:39.250
Chuck: So, before we… before we move forward, and you gave everyone our predictions, as far as when it's gonna end.
671
00:51:39.250 --> 00:51:39.820
Jeezy: Yeah.
672
00:51:40.210 --> 00:51:42.089
Chuck: How do you think it's gonna end?
673
00:51:46.540 --> 00:51:51.500
Jeezy: I think… I think the GOP's gonna have to fold, bruh.
674
00:51:52.610 --> 00:51:53.759
Jeezy: I think they're gonna have to fold.
675
00:51:54.140 --> 00:51:57.950
Jeezy: I think that the Democrats… Have the upper hand.
676
00:51:58.770 --> 00:52:13.460
Jeezy: And when they have polling, and there is… there are talks where majority of Americans believe that what you're… what you're holding out for is… is the right thing, and you know the real-life implications, and if you…
677
00:52:13.810 --> 00:52:14.850
Jeezy: do fold.
678
00:52:15.600 --> 00:52:22.390
Jeezy: How you can't go back and fight with your constituents and ask them to re-elect you when you signed off
679
00:52:22.540 --> 00:52:27.959
Jeezy: on something that you knew was going to hurt, you know, the average American families.
680
00:52:28.220 --> 00:52:38.589
Jeezy: I think that they have the leverage to a degree, and I think the GOP gonna have to fold. They got too much going on, man, and it's… things ain't looking good on the home front, prices are up.
681
00:52:38.590 --> 00:52:50.759
Jeezy: things aren't… aren't feeling good, regardless of what Trump is saying, with tariffs, and he's toning stuff, because I seen today, he's saying, hey, you know, we may give a $2,000 tariff check for all the money. He's trying to find something.
682
00:52:51.020 --> 00:53:02.920
Jeezy: to pacify the American people, because people aren't feeling good, and I think that certain Republicans are starting to go… they're gonna start getting a little antsy, and say, hey, look, we need to meet and get a deal done.
683
00:53:04.020 --> 00:53:08.340
Chuck: I agree in the framework of how you have that,
684
00:53:08.490 --> 00:53:15.859
Chuck: Because in regards to that, the check, Those… those farmers are…
685
00:53:15.860 --> 00:53:18.040
Jeezy: Oh, yeah. They, but they…
686
00:53:18.040 --> 00:53:19.050
Chuck: Devastated.
687
00:53:19.050 --> 00:53:19.370
Jeezy: table.
688
00:53:19.370 --> 00:53:20.360
Chuck: Devastated.
689
00:53:20.560 --> 00:53:33.600
Chuck: And so, in that regard, there are things that's gonna have to happen, and for them to get any aid and relief, guess what? Congress has to do that. And how do you do that? You have to be in session.
690
00:53:33.600 --> 00:53:34.200
Jeezy: Yep.
691
00:53:34.930 --> 00:53:38.299
Chuck: So, you know, and a lot of those…
692
00:53:38.300 --> 00:53:41.969
Jeezy: No, you can't talk about us bailing out the farmers, and we can't even get the government open.
693
00:53:42.370 --> 00:53:43.020
Chuck: Yep.
694
00:53:43.260 --> 00:53:46.920
Jeezy: You gotta open that door. Gotta open the door.
695
00:53:47.340 --> 00:53:51.999
Chuck: And a lot of those are… Trump supporters.
696
00:53:52.000 --> 00:53:52.670
Jeezy: Yep.
697
00:53:53.240 --> 00:54:08.690
Chuck: And so, because of the tariff war, the trade war, which this is not the first time in his first administration, they had to give relief to the farmers because of your trade wars and the farmers being negatively impacted.
698
00:54:08.690 --> 00:54:10.840
Jeezy: So, how I see it playing out…
699
00:54:10.880 --> 00:54:16.839
Chuck: He's gonna do something to where it makes it look like he Is the hero.
700
00:54:16.990 --> 00:54:17.580
Jeezy: Yeah.
701
00:54:18.190 --> 00:54:19.739
Chuck: But you're really not the hero.
702
00:54:19.740 --> 00:54:20.320
Jeezy: Yeah.
703
00:54:20.570 --> 00:54:21.710
Chuck: And so…
704
00:54:21.920 --> 00:54:29.209
Chuck: It's just a matter of when, but like you said, for these folks are bleeding out, they need help.
705
00:54:29.210 --> 00:54:29.940
Jeezy: Yep.
706
00:54:29.940 --> 00:54:39.650
Chuck: they need help, and I saw a number floated that they were talking about possibly $10 billion in relief aid coming from tariff revenue.
707
00:54:40.190 --> 00:54:43.090
Chuck: But these folks are struggling because…
708
00:54:43.440 --> 00:54:48.700
Chuck: particularly soybean farmers, because China's not buying a single soybean from them.
709
00:54:49.670 --> 00:55:07.460
Chuck: at where they were buying them heavily before. China was the largest soybean exporter from the U.S, and now they've gone to other countries to get their soybean because of the tariffs and different things that have been put in place by this administration.
710
00:55:07.460 --> 00:55:17.730
Jeezy: And at this time, typically, around this time, they've already, in normal circumstances, they'd be done buying the soybean from us, because.
711
00:55:17.730 --> 00:55:18.080
Chuck: Yeah.
712
00:55:18.080 --> 00:55:20.120
Jeezy: soybean down in Brazil will be ready.
713
00:55:20.310 --> 00:55:20.970
Chuck: Yeah.
714
00:55:20.970 --> 00:55:26.850
Jeezy: So, there is no relief coming for them soybeans, because it's time to start getting from Brazil.
715
00:55:27.090 --> 00:55:27.830
Chuck: Yep.
716
00:55:27.830 --> 00:55:30.229
Jeezy: So… yeah.
717
00:55:30.340 --> 00:55:41.320
Chuck: So, how it plays out, not 100% sure, but I feel like he's gonna try to position it to where it makes it… makes him look good.
718
00:55:41.440 --> 00:55:44.600
Chuck: But you really… Not…
719
00:55:44.770 --> 00:55:51.610
Chuck: not doing it like that. Yeah. But yeah, something's gonna have to shake, because… Go ahead.
720
00:55:51.610 --> 00:55:54.869
Jeezy: To that point you were saying about the farmers, I don't know if you've ever heard of this.
721
00:55:55.890 --> 00:56:04.270
Jeezy: Down the street from me, well, actually, if I'm driving into town, there's a lot of farmland that's on the road going into town.
722
00:56:04.960 --> 00:56:11.370
Jeezy: And I've noticed how last season, with a whole lot of planting, a whole lot of crops going on.
723
00:56:11.790 --> 00:56:21.669
Jeezy: Well, I saw that there was a very large area that used to be, farmer used to till, you know, I can't remember what they actually planted, but…
724
00:56:23.070 --> 00:56:27.629
Jeezy: I saw a bunch of trucks out there a couple of days ago, and a sign put out there.
725
00:56:27.750 --> 00:56:31.689
Jeezy: They have sold the land, because obviously farmer can't do nothing with it.
726
00:56:32.410 --> 00:56:32.750
Chuck: Yeah.
727
00:56:32.750 --> 00:56:38.920
Jeezy: They're now building a neighborhood Subdivision known as a agrihood.
728
00:56:39.690 --> 00:56:42.910
Jeezy: And I've never heard of an agri-hood before.
729
00:56:43.130 --> 00:56:43.970
Chuck: Never.
730
00:56:43.970 --> 00:56:46.910
Jeezy: But basically, it's a… it's a subdivision.
731
00:56:47.260 --> 00:56:54.769
Jeezy: Where they build all these houses, but they have farmland where they grow crops, and the community
732
00:56:55.530 --> 00:56:58.370
Jeezy: Eats off of the… off of what they have grown.
733
00:56:58.950 --> 00:56:59.850
Chuck: Interesting.
734
00:56:59.910 --> 00:57:10.470
Jeezy: Bruh, very interesting. It's apparently a new concept that is coming around, but a lot of these rural areas where they're going to buy the land up, the land is still very rich for growing.
735
00:57:10.470 --> 00:57:11.679
Chuck: Very much so.
736
00:57:11.680 --> 00:57:22.370
Jeezy: You have a lot of people now, it's becoming a trend now where you see a lot of people who are growing their own vegetables and whatnot in their backyards, they're setting up raised beds and growing.
737
00:57:22.370 --> 00:57:34.540
Jeezy: Now they're building a neighborhood where you… they have the land already tilled for you, and the community can, plant and whatever they need, and then they all share off of the crop that comes in that agrihood.
738
00:57:35.680 --> 00:57:41.700
Chuck: You know, and being that you said that, I saw…
739
00:57:42.830 --> 00:58:01.449
Chuck: online that the last, dairy farm in Mecklenburg County, which Mecklenburg County has, the county seat is Charlotte, North Carolina, for those who don't know, the last dairy farm in Mecklenburg County sold and will become a residential neighborhood.
740
00:58:01.770 --> 00:58:02.370
Jeezy: Bruh.
741
00:58:03.100 --> 00:58:03.520
Chuck: So…
742
00:58:03.520 --> 00:58:04.020
Jeezy: Wow, bro.
743
00:58:04.020 --> 00:58:08.960
Chuck: Like, like you said, it… It's…
744
00:58:09.190 --> 00:58:15.130
Chuck: It's tough out here for folks who's, you know, doing agriculture and farming, and…
745
00:58:15.130 --> 00:58:18.250
Jeezy: them are Trump supporters, man, and that's what's sad to see.
746
00:58:18.440 --> 00:58:21.389
Jeezy: That's what's See, I look at the local news.
747
00:58:21.570 --> 00:58:28.259
Jeezy: And, you know, hearing the farmers, man, like, I had to… I had to… Sell my last whatever.
748
00:58:28.420 --> 00:58:34.630
Jeezy: To see if I can just stay afloat, and hopefully some relief or help will come, but if it don't come.
749
00:58:35.390 --> 00:58:41.330
Jeezy: I've lost all I had, and if you don't know any, because I'm from Eastern North Carolina, as well as my brother Chuck.
750
00:58:42.280 --> 00:58:47.930
Jeezy: But I have been born and raised in the area, still live in the area, and…
751
00:58:48.250 --> 00:58:51.899
Jeezy: If you ever met… A farmer. Know a farmer.
752
00:58:52.780 --> 00:58:58.549
Jeezy: Politically, they're not gonna align with you if you're a Democrat or an Independent. They're typically Republican.
753
00:58:59.190 --> 00:59:04.710
Jeezy: But they are some of… they are some very hard-working, Caring, loving family people.
754
00:59:05.020 --> 00:59:11.900
Jeezy: And most of them are only doing this, and this is something that I have just, immense respect for.
755
00:59:12.030 --> 00:59:15.129
Jeezy: Is that most of them are generational farmers.
756
00:59:15.300 --> 00:59:35.040
Jeezy: Yes. They could have done… they could have done something else, but a lot of the land… there was a buddy of mine, shout out to the Flanagan family, rest in peace to Pop Flanagan. But, I was sitting with his son on his farm, last… a year and a half ago before his dad passed away, and he's just as country, and just as white as he could possibly be.
757
00:59:35.730 --> 00:59:37.859
Jeezy: We have nothing alike whatsoever.
758
00:59:37.860 --> 00:59:38.210
Chuck: Yeah.
759
00:59:38.210 --> 00:59:45.600
Jeezy: But man, he… but loving family, sat out there, and his dad and my father-in-law played football together, and…
760
00:59:45.900 --> 00:59:49.980
Jeezy: Pop Flanagan, one thing he wanted to do is to get our families together, so I could, first of all.
761
00:59:49.980 --> 00:59:50.430
Chuck: Okay.
762
00:59:50.430 --> 00:59:51.249
Jeezy: Out of him, because…
763
00:59:51.590 --> 00:59:57.930
Jeezy: I see a lot of people that come from that background, especially with a white family and a black family wanting to get their families together.
764
00:59:57.930 --> 00:59:58.300
Chuck: Yeah.
765
00:59:58.300 --> 01:00:08.669
Jeezy: they can have that bond. And even in his passing, you know, I'm still cool with his son, his wife, we see him, we speak, you know, we check in, and, you know, our kids even have played on the farm together. But, you know.
766
01:00:08.890 --> 01:00:14.250
Jeezy: When you look at what he's done, he had an old tractor out there, and he said this was…
767
01:00:14.390 --> 01:00:18.470
Jeezy: The first tractor that his great-granddaddy had bought him.
768
01:00:18.860 --> 01:00:19.410
Chuck: Man.
769
01:00:19.410 --> 01:00:29.349
Jeezy: when he was a little itty-bitty boy, they went to an auction, he bought it, and he still had it, and he was like, it still runs, and I still use it to take care of my land today.
770
01:00:29.380 --> 01:00:42.400
Jeezy: And you sit and hear those stories with a farmer, and how connected to them. This is family. So this guy is young, he's 37, 38, he went to college, he could have certainly got a job, you know, sitting behind.
771
01:00:42.400 --> 01:00:43.569
Chuck: Moved away, yeah.
772
01:00:43.570 --> 01:01:01.660
Jeezy: pushing a pen, doing something that was so much easier, but for him, this is his connection to his dad, his dad, and the dad before… generations of just history and family ties. And to see that, a lot of them are on the brink of losing that because of what this administration is doing.
773
01:01:01.760 --> 01:01:05.590
Jeezy: It's sad, man. You know, it's bigger than…
774
01:01:05.590 --> 01:01:24.530
Jeezy: playing a political game. This is the livelihood of, as we've said before, this is the livelihood of these families and generations. And I can only imagine from an emotional perspective to know that a land that my great-grandfather or my great-great-grandfather worked and tilled and did all these things to know that I gotta let it go, and it's no longer mines no more.
775
01:01:25.020 --> 01:01:26.620
Jeezy: That's gotta be rough, bruh.
776
01:01:26.620 --> 01:01:30.240
Chuck: Very rough. Yeah, man, that's…
777
01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:39.900
Chuck: That's super tough. Super tough. And it is very sad that these folks are having to make a decision of…
778
01:01:40.120 --> 01:01:45.669
Chuck: Upholding our family tradition, our family, heritage.
779
01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:48.100
Chuck: Or… live.
780
01:01:48.260 --> 01:01:48.850
Jeezy: Yep.
781
01:01:49.300 --> 01:01:51.820
Chuck: It's not even a survive thing, it's live.
782
01:01:51.970 --> 01:01:56.889
Chuck: And, you know, it's very sad. Very, very sad.
783
01:01:56.890 --> 01:01:58.220
Jeezy: Yeah, well…
784
01:01:58.770 --> 01:02:04.320
Jeezy: For us Black folks, if you look for your 40 acres in a mule, you probably don't want it now.
785
01:02:04.320 --> 01:02:07.629
Chuck: You're not winning, and it'll be going back to the government.
786
01:02:12.990 --> 01:02:14.319
Jeezy: Bruh, so…
787
01:02:14.490 --> 01:02:24.890
Jeezy: We'll see what happens with the shutdown. You guys let us know how long you think it's gonna last, and what's your thoughts on it on our socials. And we'll see what happens. We'll keep you updated, so…
788
01:02:25.300 --> 01:02:32.649
Jeezy: With that being said, we're gonna move right along to our next topic, and that is… the Israel-Hamas
789
01:02:33.090 --> 01:02:34.660
Jeezy: war. It was announced…
790
01:02:35.120 --> 01:02:44.140
Jeezy: on September the 29th, that Trump and Big Benny had unveiled a 20-point, plan aimed at ending the conflict.
791
01:02:45.730 --> 01:03:01.519
Jeezy: And the key elements of this was an immediate ceasefire once Hamas accepts the release of all remaining Israeli hostages within 72 hours, a phased Israeli withdrawal to a defined initial withdrawal line.
792
01:03:02.000 --> 01:03:03.650
Jeezy: The disarmament.
793
01:03:03.690 --> 01:03:22.979
Jeezy: of Hamas and demilitarization of Gaza, either diplomatically or by force, governance of Gaza by a technocrat or excuse me, international transitional body before handing over to a reformed Palestinian authority.
794
01:03:23.260 --> 01:03:25.350
Jeezy: Now, Trump gave Hamas a deadline.
795
01:03:26.180 --> 01:03:34.659
Jeezy: to accept the deal by the 5th, or face, escalated military consequences. Now, first of all, before I continue, I just want to say this.
796
01:03:34.960 --> 01:03:36.390
Jeezy: Trump be pissing me off.
797
01:03:36.830 --> 01:03:38.709
Chuck: Trump is the king of the deadline.
798
01:03:39.090 --> 01:03:43.620
Jeezy: Because first of all, he gotta be the worst, he the worst boss in history.
799
01:03:43.790 --> 01:03:49.619
Jeezy: Because, how you gonna give me a deadline and then threaten me with the deadline? Like, bro, you could've just said, hey, look.
800
01:03:50.320 --> 01:03:51.350
Jeezy: Hamas?
801
01:03:51.540 --> 01:03:53.030
Jeezy: Here's our plan.
802
01:03:53.650 --> 01:03:57.840
Jeezy: You have until… October 5th, to accept.
803
01:03:58.200 --> 01:03:59.730
Jeezy: Bam, you can leave it at that.
804
01:04:00.250 --> 01:04:02.380
Jeezy: Why you gotta go and say.
805
01:04:03.610 --> 01:04:07.489
Jeezy: Or to be, completely annihilated.
806
01:04:07.490 --> 01:04:09.310
Chuck: Come on now, grab it.
807
01:04:09.650 --> 01:04:12.679
Jeezy: Trump is that person, but it's like, you just say too much. You could've just.
808
01:04:12.680 --> 01:04:17.850
Chuck: Do you agree to be peaceful, or are we gonna kill you?
809
01:04:17.850 --> 01:04:23.630
Jeezy: Agree to the deal before I come over there and kill all y'all. Bro, what? Because how do I take that? Because now, it's like…
810
01:04:23.630 --> 01:04:26.889
Chuck: It's disrespect. Right, you disrespect me. It's pure disrespect.
811
01:04:26.890 --> 01:04:33.010
Jeezy: You disrespected me, and I won't accept the deal, but you're not gonna talk to me like that.
812
01:04:33.010 --> 01:04:41.240
Chuck: You're not gonna talk to me any kind of way and expect me… You said that last part, you just came over here and punched me in my mouth.
813
01:04:41.240 --> 01:04:41.840
Jeezy: Buh.
814
01:04:41.840 --> 01:04:46.880
Chuck: It said, okay, alright, we gonna make friends now. No, bruh!
815
01:04:46.880 --> 01:04:48.989
Jeezy: We good? No, we… it's up and it's stuck.
816
01:04:48.990 --> 01:04:50.840
Chuck: We're not good. We are not good.
817
01:04:50.840 --> 01:04:52.229
Jeezy: I was surprised.
818
01:04:52.360 --> 01:04:56.460
Jeezy: Because… Hamas has accepted part of the terms.
819
01:04:56.460 --> 01:04:57.210
Chuck: Yes.
820
01:04:57.390 --> 01:05:02.979
Jeezy: They have pleaded, to release the hostages, but not… they have not fully agreed.
821
01:05:03.050 --> 01:05:20.229
Jeezy: On the 20 point… first of all, bruh, 20 points is outrageous. And that's kind of how they be doing bills in Congress, they be pissing us off, bruh. Y'all put 20 different things in one bill, and one of them things I just can't get down with, so then the whole bill just clears. Bruh, can we just go point by point by point?
822
01:05:20.230 --> 01:05:24.230
Chuck: They ain't got 20 points on the Star of David. Why this deal got 20 points?
823
01:05:24.890 --> 01:05:26.620
Chuck: I'll tell you why. It's ridiculous.
824
01:05:26.620 --> 01:05:27.130
Audio shared by Jeezy: Message!
825
01:05:28.680 --> 01:05:40.240
Chuck: It's ridiculous. Like you said, we… you could have 17, 18 excellent points that I can agree to, and the last two is… give me your wife and children.
826
01:05:40.240 --> 01:05:40.710
Jeezy: Bruh.
827
01:05:41.090 --> 01:05:41.620
Chuck: What?
828
01:05:41.620 --> 01:05:42.720
Jeezy: do that.
829
01:05:42.720 --> 01:05:46.289
Chuck: Oh, absolutely not! That was how it would fall apart.
830
01:05:46.290 --> 01:05:50.439
Jeezy: Now I get drugged because I didn't agree to the bill. Would you give up your wife and kids, too?
831
01:05:50.700 --> 01:05:53.410
Chuck: Like, what are y'all talking about, man?
832
01:05:53.410 --> 01:05:58.410
Jeezy: But they have agreed to part of it, so we're getting somewhere, which I will say…
833
01:05:58.810 --> 01:06:07.249
Jeezy: I am surprised, because as we reported in a previous episode, Big Benny was… tried to blow up the hotel room they was up in Qatar.
834
01:06:07.250 --> 01:06:14.450
Chuck: But see, that's the thing. I think they were all… they were approaching this point of saying, okay, we can agree
835
01:06:14.740 --> 01:06:20.580
Chuck: And we have a point where we can have some common ground, and then you shot at us.
836
01:06:20.580 --> 01:06:21.120
Jeezy: Yep.
837
01:06:21.540 --> 01:06:22.330
Jeezy: Yep.
838
01:06:22.330 --> 01:06:23.260
Chuck: No, so…
839
01:06:23.260 --> 01:06:25.290
Jeezy: So how are we trying to really get anywhere?
840
01:06:26.230 --> 01:06:31.149
Jeezy: So, Hamas has said that it will release the hostages according to the exchange formula.
841
01:06:31.310 --> 01:06:36.080
Jeezy: And as the field conditions are met. Because here's the thing.
842
01:06:36.460 --> 01:06:55.659
Jeezy: Which I agree with them on. First of all, let me say this, because I know how y'all twist stuff. I am not in agreeance to Hamas. I am not… I don't want nobody knocking on my door, kicking in with German Shepherds, talking about that I'm a Trump. I am not… I am not a part. I'm just… I'm just commenting on the news. That's it.
843
01:06:55.660 --> 01:06:57.409
Chuck: Why gotta be German Shepherds, though?
844
01:06:58.110 --> 01:06:58.890
Jeezy: Brad.
845
01:06:59.280 --> 01:07:01.019
Chuck: What do you know about that breed?
846
01:07:01.290 --> 01:07:05.509
Jeezy: I ain't never understood, bruh. I got to say this. You see, you done threw me the alley-oop?
847
01:07:06.230 --> 01:07:07.090
Jeezy: Right.
848
01:07:07.360 --> 01:07:17.489
Jeezy: Black folks are looking in a history book, and see their own folks getting beat, sprayed, and bit on by German Shepherds, and then going to get one and have it as a pick.
849
01:07:18.510 --> 01:07:21.969
Jeezy: I ain't no… I ain't never understood, bro.
850
01:07:22.540 --> 01:07:29.349
Jeezy: Hey, don't go chasing German Shepherds. Stick to the Pitbulls and the Rottweilers that you're used to.
851

Audio shared by Jeezy: Message!
852
01:07:33.100 --> 01:07:36.289
Jeezy: Bro, but, but Hamas has, has, has agreed.
853
01:07:36.800 --> 01:07:37.690
Jeezy: But…
854
01:07:38.090 --> 01:07:46.230
Jeezy: They have their suspicions, and they have every right to be, because I think that the way that these proceedings have gone…
855
01:07:46.610 --> 01:07:51.460
Jeezy: It definitely probably doesn't feel that… It probably feels very one-sided.
856
01:07:51.860 --> 01:07:57.920
Jeezy: To what they're trying to accomplish. What I'm gonna be honest with you, I really don't know what they're trying to accomplish, per se.
857
01:07:58.940 --> 01:08:14.120
Jeezy: But I know that it's been hard for Israel, especially, I mean, for Hamas, especially when there have been negotiations had, but it seems like every time it happens, there is this escalated strike, there is this resistance of aid. We've seen, I think it was, what, 47?
858
01:08:14.340 --> 01:08:16.430
Jeezy: Of them, flotillas.
859
01:08:16.439 --> 01:08:17.289
Chuck: Yep.
860
01:08:17.290 --> 01:08:20.350
Jeezy: They got… they got hemmed up, bruh, they said… bruh, what's that guy?
861
01:08:20.359 --> 01:08:22.779
Chuck: Before they even got… before they even got there.
862
01:08:22.779 --> 01:08:26.279
Jeezy: What's the, what's the, what's the little girl, the humanitarian girl?
863
01:08:26.419 --> 01:08:28.089
Jeezy: Greta?
864
01:08:29.359 --> 01:08:34.779
Jeezy: Bruh, first of all, bruh, she doing… she's trying her best to do the work of the Lord.
865
01:08:35.349 --> 01:08:36.559
Jeezy: What are her parents?
866
01:08:37.910 --> 01:08:43.459
Jeezy: This girl been international since… this girl been out in countries that I ain't… bruh.
867
01:08:44.090 --> 01:08:45.670
Chuck: And he thought about going to.
868
01:08:45.670 --> 01:08:56.999
Jeezy: She can't even book a hotel room. She just be moving around at an age 11, 12. She just movin' around. They said that she… they had her hemmed up, they… bruh, which I had to… I'm gonna say this is a lot.
869
01:08:57.609 --> 01:09:03.569
Jeezy: I seen on social media, they said that when they had apprehended her, Did they beat her?
870
01:09:04.189 --> 01:09:08.090
Jeezy: May her kissing… May her kiss an Israeli flag.
871
01:09:08.790 --> 01:09:11.429
Jeezy: Threw her into prison, where she is detained.
872
01:09:11.729 --> 01:09:16.470
Jeezy: And the bed that she's sleeping in is infested with bed bugs. I said, alright, now.
873
01:09:16.470 --> 01:09:17.810
Chuck: Come on, now. Come on.
874
01:09:17.810 --> 01:09:18.380
Jeezy: you know.
875
01:09:18.750 --> 01:09:19.350
Jeezy: Just there.
876
01:09:20.170 --> 01:09:21.850
Chuck: Just sir. Just saying.
877
01:09:21.850 --> 01:09:28.720
Jeezy: But they hemmed up all them flotillas, and I thought about that. If they hemmed them all up and they had humanitarian aid on it.
878
01:09:29.279 --> 01:09:42.899
Jeezy: which I said it before on a previous podcast, I think that it's wrong, that this is being denied for the Palestinian people, because we are… there is starvation going on. It was reported, I think, the other day, and one day, 15 kids had died from starvation.
879
01:09:42.950 --> 01:09:51.679
Jeezy: Like, regardless of if you agree with, you know, what is going on, and we have all been very understanding that
880
01:09:51.899 --> 01:09:54.740
Jeezy: Israel has the right to defend itself against Hamas.
881
01:09:54.860 --> 01:09:57.669
Jeezy: But not at the expense of annihilating the Palestinian people.
882
01:09:57.970 --> 01:09:58.840
Chuck: Agreed.
883
01:09:59.200 --> 01:10:00.479
Jeezy: Get the aid to the people.
884
01:10:01.090 --> 01:10:13.939
Jeezy: Get the aid to the people. They need it, they're dying. Innocent people are dying. Whether you're fighting this battle with Hamas or not, you cannot, at some point, let the casualty of these innocent Palestinian people just go on.
885
01:10:14.060 --> 01:10:17.360
Jeezy: Just for the sake of you trying to, obliterate
886
01:10:17.540 --> 01:10:20.279
Jeezy: Hamas. And I told Manny this.
887
01:10:22.800 --> 01:10:28.169
Jeezy: Israel made a statement, and this is what you gotta be careful with, why Big Benny is very dangerous.
888
01:10:28.920 --> 01:10:31.750
Jeezy: Actually, I said it in the group chat. He said that…
889
01:10:32.430 --> 01:10:37.619
Jeezy: Israel will… will not stop until the hostages have been released.
890
01:10:38.080 --> 01:10:40.020
Jeezy: Which of my said that they would.
891
01:10:40.640 --> 01:10:48.649
Jeezy: But then he said… And the secu- and the security of Israel has been, secured.
892
01:10:49.930 --> 01:11:02.490
Jeezy: And I said in the group, that last part right there is what he's gonna use to keep doing what he's doing, even if the hostages, all the hostages, which I think is 37 of them that are left.
893
01:11:02.580 --> 01:11:14.220
Jeezy: until all of them… until all of them have been returned, they're still gonna… he's still gonna do what he's doing. And what Hamas has said in their statement is that when there has been… field conditions are met, well…
894
01:11:14.370 --> 01:11:18.060
Jeezy: the field conditions that need to be met is Israel gotta stop bombing, because we can't
895
01:11:18.400 --> 01:11:37.400
Jeezy: We can't deliver nothing to you if you're still dropping bombs over Baghdad. Like, bruh, we can't do it. So then, that's gonna be used, I swear, as leverage to, well, they're not meeting the exchange schedule or the exchange formula that's been set to release the hostages, so we're still doing this. Bruh, I'm not coming from about that tunnel until these bombs stop dropping.
896
01:11:37.650 --> 01:11:38.360
Jeezy: Period.
897
01:11:38.360 --> 01:11:50.839
Chuck: Period. And I know I saw earlier today on BBC that even Marco Rubio had said, Israel, y'all gotta chill out. Y'all trying to get these hostages out and released.
898
01:11:51.120 --> 01:11:54.929
Chuck: Yeah, I gotta stop. And the report was,
899
01:11:55.180 --> 01:12:00.610
Chuck: up until the early morning hours, that Israel was still bombing, and…
900
01:12:01.170 --> 01:12:14.539
Chuck: I'm not… like you said, I'm not coming up out of my cave, out of my tunnel, out of my hiding spot, until you stop… I know you're not dropping nothing on my head. Like, what sense does that make?
901
01:12:15.650 --> 01:12:20.350
Jeezy: It's… I think that indirect negotiations are set to begin.
902
01:12:20.650 --> 01:12:21.789
Jeezy: in Egypt.
903
01:12:21.970 --> 01:12:32.690
Jeezy: With mediators from the US, Qatar, and Egypt being involved. And really, they're just meeting to talk and focus on the logistics of how this is gonna take place.
904
01:12:33.090 --> 01:12:34.660
Jeezy: So how hostages
905
01:12:34.890 --> 01:12:48.939
Jeezy: will be released, how Israeli withdrawal is phased, and how security guarantees and demilitarization would be enforced. But, to your point, Marco Rubio had even spoken, said that he, warned that the war is not over yet. So…
906
01:12:49.230 --> 01:12:54.670
Jeezy: This is… I don't think that this is a victory yet for Trump.
907
01:12:55.230 --> 01:12:59.799
Jeezy: Because we've seen how ceasefires can go.
908
01:13:00.140 --> 01:13:03.690
Jeezy: All it takes is for somebody to say, alright, we gon' chill.
909
01:13:03.970 --> 01:13:06.399
Jeezy: And Israel already been popping off.
910
01:13:06.650 --> 01:13:11.400
Jeezy: They already done kill some more civilians, because they ain't stopped bombing yet, they still sending airstrikes.
911
01:13:11.810 --> 01:13:14.770
Jeezy: All it's gonna take is that one, and now we back on offense again.
912
01:13:15.440 --> 01:13:16.050
Jeezy: So…
913
01:13:16.050 --> 01:13:21.439
Chuck: Yeah, you want me to give a ceasefire and put my guns down. As soon as I put my guns down, you shoot at me.
914
01:13:21.440 --> 01:13:22.210
Jeezy: Bingo.
915
01:13:22.850 --> 01:13:28.980
Jeezy: So, I think that with… I hope that this is the step in the right direction.
916
01:13:29.980 --> 01:13:33.880
Jeezy: But I don't know if it is yet, because…
917
01:13:34.390 --> 01:13:38.540
Jeezy: I'mma be honest with you, man, and I've been very, adamant about this.
918
01:13:38.900 --> 01:13:43.980
Jeezy: I just do not trust the intentions of what Israel's trying to accomplish.
919
01:13:44.160 --> 01:13:44.590
Chuck: At all.
920
01:13:44.590 --> 01:13:46.200
Jeezy: I really don't, and I.
921
01:13:46.200 --> 01:13:47.929
Chuck: They haven't given us any reason to.
922
01:13:48.180 --> 01:13:51.940
Jeezy: Bruh, and I think that's why globally, and I want people to understand this, it…
923
01:13:52.530 --> 01:13:57.649
Jeezy: You can say that you're in support of what… of Israel, and Israel's right to defend itself.
924
01:13:58.480 --> 01:14:05.509
Jeezy: But if the… if… it ain't just one person or one nation saying this, one country saying this. Globally.
925
01:14:05.680 --> 01:14:08.709
Jeezy: A lot of people don't agree with what Israel's doing.
926
01:14:08.990 --> 01:14:09.480
Chuck: Listen.
927
01:14:09.480 --> 01:14:10.299
Jeezy: Israelis don't.
928
01:14:10.300 --> 01:14:14.200
Chuck: The majority of the global population does not agree with what it is.
929
01:14:14.200 --> 01:14:15.939
Jeezy: Do not agree with what's going on.
930
01:14:16.430 --> 01:14:20.830
Jeezy: and even inside of Israel, there has been,
931
01:14:21.100 --> 01:14:30.950
Jeezy: an uprising of people not agreeing with what Benjamin Netanyahu is doing, even to the fact of pointing out his poll numbers. His poll numbers are trash.
932
01:14:31.300 --> 01:14:34.160
Jeezy: And people are not pleased with the handling.
933
01:14:34.590 --> 01:14:36.990
Jeezy: of this situation. So…
934
01:14:37.880 --> 01:14:44.610
Jeezy: I don't think that we're headed… I think right now, maybe we are in a… we're not moving, the needle's not moving.
935
01:14:45.660 --> 01:14:49.760
Jeezy: right now, but certainly I don't think we're headed towards an end
936
01:14:49.970 --> 01:14:54.949
Jeezy: To the… to the war, because I just don't trust the intentions, and I can't remember what president.
937
01:14:55.850 --> 01:15:06.889
Jeezy: said this. I can't remember if it was George Washington or Abraham Lincoln. I read it, one time in a class that I took that we had to do some study on politics, but…
938
01:15:07.000 --> 01:15:16.680
Jeezy: they were talking about the dangers of having foreign allies, and what the implications of that does for you. And I bring that up because…
939
01:15:17.030 --> 01:15:22.310
Jeezy: You hear a lot of people just say, I support Israel, I support Israel, I support Israel, I support Israel.
940
01:15:22.530 --> 01:15:25.130
Jeezy: But think about what that support means.
941
01:15:25.400 --> 01:15:31.430
Jeezy: Because… if I say, hey, I support Chuck, And Chuck is…
942
01:15:31.770 --> 01:15:36.609
Jeezy: The main person in the community, tearing the community to pieces.
943
01:15:37.260 --> 01:15:38.940
Jeezy: His enemies…
944
01:15:39.720 --> 01:15:41.199
Jeezy: become my enemies.
945
01:15:41.420 --> 01:15:45.820
Jeezy: Because I have pledged my loyalty to Chuck.
946
01:15:46.420 --> 01:15:46.950
Chuck: Yep.
947
01:15:46.950 --> 01:15:48.900
Jeezy: the danger that I feel
948
01:15:49.010 --> 01:16:00.690
Jeezy: is that we can support Israel, but as strong as we say we support Israel, where is that same boldness when Israel is doing things that we say, okay, hey, look, Israel, you gotta chill.
949
01:16:01.120 --> 01:16:04.340
Jeezy: Because Israel is only as tough as America makes them feel.
950
01:16:05.010 --> 01:16:10.149
Jeezy: They are only as tough as America makes them feel. If they… if they knew…
951
01:16:10.260 --> 01:16:16.720
Jeezy: They don't… if they knew that they did not have the backing of the United States in the way in which it has been.
952
01:16:17.080 --> 01:16:20.400
Jeezy: Big Benny would not be as big as he claims it acts to be.
953
01:16:20.650 --> 01:16:21.939
Chuck: And he would not be popping off.
954
01:16:21.940 --> 01:16:24.120
Jeezy: Trump could make one phone call.
955
01:16:25.210 --> 01:16:28.540
Jeezy: And I guarantee you, if he said, look.
956
01:16:28.830 --> 01:16:35.970
Jeezy: Big Benny, that humanitarian aid that's coming, them 47 flotillas, you need to make sure that they get through.
957
01:16:36.520 --> 01:16:42.440
Jeezy: Whether you need to have people there to monitor, to make sure, whatever you gotta do, it needs to be there.
958
01:16:43.460 --> 01:16:47.259
Jeezy: But… We got a government shutdown going on, but ask…
959
01:16:47.910 --> 01:16:50.900
Jeezy: yourself this. Has the money stopped flowing to Israel?
960
01:16:52.820 --> 01:16:54.250
Jeezy: Has the money stopped flowing?
961
01:16:55.570 --> 01:17:00.340
Jeezy: Now, Trump is telling us that he's about to cut all these folks that work in our government
962
01:17:01.170 --> 01:17:03.560
Jeezy: But we are still sending funds
963
01:17:04.060 --> 01:17:09.489
Jeezy: and whatever over to Israel, and they literally, I don't care what you want to call it, they committing genocide.
964
01:17:10.050 --> 01:17:13.210
Jeezy: You can call it whatever you want, I'mma call it a spade, a spade.
965
01:17:13.460 --> 01:17:13.900
Chuck: Take a bit.
966
01:17:13.900 --> 01:17:14.860
Jeezy: genocide.
967
01:17:15.010 --> 01:17:15.830
Chuck: Yes, sir.
968
01:17:16.500 --> 01:17:25.560
Jeezy: We're saying that we're okay with funding that while we are sitting here crippling and politicizing our shutdown, where we're only targeting Democratic
969
01:17:25.930 --> 01:17:33.599
Jeezy: establishments, democratic, states, Democratic, governors, that, that's… we're okay with that.
970
01:17:33.750 --> 01:17:40.349
Jeezy: But we're okay with signing off for the sake of loyalty and support to Israel, we're okay with a genocide.
971
01:17:42.030 --> 01:17:42.630
Chuck: Reaching, brother.
972
01:17:42.630 --> 01:17:47.450
Jeezy: We should be mindful of where we throw our support to, and while it's fine.
973
01:17:47.550 --> 01:18:03.479
Jeezy: I can support Israel, but when Israel's wrong, I should be just as strong in my response and say, Israel, you're wrong. Because if Trump picked up that phone and told… and condemned Benjamin Netanyahu for what he was doing, I guarantee that this genocide wouldn't be nowhere near where it is today.
974
01:18:03.650 --> 01:18:09.079
Chuck: Had he said something in the very beginning, All this would…
975
01:18:09.570 --> 01:18:15.329
Chuck: would be… I ain't gonna say over, but it wouldn't… like you said, it would not be at the level that it is now.
976
01:18:15.690 --> 01:18:16.260
Jeezy: Yep.
977
01:18:16.920 --> 01:18:18.319
Chuck: Not even close.
978
01:18:18.810 --> 01:18:24.429
Jeezy: Bruh, so I really think that at the end of all of this, At best case scenario.
979
01:18:25.280 --> 01:18:26.970
Jeezy: There's a Gaza Reset.
980
01:18:27.470 --> 01:18:29.240
Jeezy: you know, Hamas accepts.
981
01:18:29.730 --> 01:18:35.950
Jeezy: Things are fragile for peace, but the humanitarian aid, comes in, and rebuilding can begin.
982
01:18:36.160 --> 01:18:45.180
Jeezy: There's a mid-ground scenario, the ceasefire happens, but Hamas agrees in principle, freeing some of the hostages and halting the attacks.
983
01:18:45.350 --> 01:18:49.150
Jeezy: And we see what that ceasefire looks at, at worst case scenario.
984
01:18:49.580 --> 01:18:54.829
Jeezy: That deal that happens in Cairo, when they meet, that deal dies, and bro, it's still up until it's stuck.
985
01:18:55.320 --> 01:18:58.730
Jeezy: And I hate it, man, because, you know…
986
01:18:59.210 --> 01:19:08.790
Jeezy: I had to… I had to kind of make sure that I… I kind of, you know, padded my social media, because I couldn't take seeing all that stuff happening in Gaza, bruh.
987
01:19:08.790 --> 01:19:10.480
Chuck: No, man.
988
01:19:10.480 --> 01:19:11.140
Jeezy: Crazy.
989
01:19:11.140 --> 01:19:12.120
Chuck: It's sickening.
990
01:19:12.320 --> 01:19:13.020
Jeezy: He's, it's crazy.
991
01:19:13.380 --> 01:19:17.730
Jeezy: Because I want people to realize, man, We are blessed.
992
01:19:18.190 --> 01:19:22.539
Jeezy: and fortunate, no matter how you look at it, to live in the United States.
993
01:19:23.010 --> 01:19:26.160
Chuck: Because this could be happening to our… this could be happening to us.
994
01:19:27.110 --> 01:19:29.869
Jeezy: That could be happening to others. These are people.
995
01:19:30.230 --> 01:19:32.280
Jeezy: These are lives, these are children.
996
01:19:32.400 --> 01:19:38.700
Jeezy: Whether you agree with them politically, religiously, no matter what, these are people. These are souls.
997
01:19:38.700 --> 01:19:43.790
Chuck: And that's my… that's my… biggest…
998
01:19:44.700 --> 01:19:51.060
Chuck: I don't even want to say gripe. That's my… that's what pisses me off about this, is because…
999
01:19:52.910 --> 01:19:55.860
Chuck: the dehumanizing.
1000
01:19:55.860 --> 01:19:56.700

Chuck: And, you know, you lucky charming it up, but you sit here and talk down on and ridicule, like, bruh.
1151
01:31:03.220 --> 01:31:04.179
Jeezy: I can't do that.
1152
01:31:04.320 --> 01:31:07.090
Chuck: That's nasty work. Nasty work.
1153
01:31:07.090 --> 01:31:09.039
Jeezy: For your pride.
1154
01:31:11.630 --> 01:31:13.000
Jeezy: Just be who you are, bruh.
1155
01:31:13.000 --> 01:31:15.139
Chuck: Here you are, bro.
1156
01:31:15.330 --> 01:31:20.660
Chuck: Yeah, that's… come on, man. Yeah, you deserve to… you deserve to be in the brine.
1157
01:31:20.660 --> 01:31:22.079
Jeezy: Bruh, you got to, bruh.
1158
01:31:22.340 --> 01:31:25.810
Jeezy: I bet he ain't unfollowed that page, though.
1159
01:31:25.810 --> 01:31:26.960
Audio shared by Jeezy: He a fan.
1160
01:31:28.850 --> 01:31:33.430
Chuck: Oh, he done… he done… he done dove in head first, all the way.
1161
01:31:33.430 --> 01:31:34.369
Jeezy: He ain't.
1162
01:31:34.370 --> 01:31:34.860
Chuck: Which.
1163
01:31:34.860 --> 01:31:36.170
Jeezy: I'm talking about eating!
1164
01:31:36.170 --> 01:31:41.639
Chuck: Take me through the… take me through the… where we going?
1165
01:31:43.250 --> 01:31:44.919
Chuck: But you know what's crazy?
1166
01:31:45.590 --> 01:31:48.219
Chuck: Somebody in his own party.
1167
01:31:48.220 --> 01:31:49.309
Jeezy: Oh, you know it, bruh.
1168
01:31:49.310 --> 01:31:50.760
Chuck: Went looking for this.
1169
01:31:50.890 --> 01:31:51.550
Jeezy: Bruh.
1170
01:31:52.080 --> 01:31:53.340
Jeezy: Bruh, yeah, bruh, who…
1171
01:31:53.340 --> 01:31:55.670
Chuck: Who found us out?
1172
01:31:56.120 --> 01:31:57.890
Chuck: How'd you know where to look?
1173
01:31:57.890 --> 01:31:58.470
Jeezy: Yup.
1174
01:31:59.270 --> 01:32:00.220
Chuck: Bjour!
1175
01:32:00.640 --> 01:32:02.499
Chuck: You're probably rolling with it, too.
1176
01:32:02.660 --> 01:32:05.020
Jeezy: You're a little nasty, you're a little nasty.
1177
01:32:05.220 --> 01:32:05.930
Chuck: It,
1178
01:32:06.480 --> 01:32:12.740
Chuck: If Manny was with us on today… hold on, let me not say it like that, that sounds like he went on the glory.
1179
01:32:12.740 --> 01:32:14.980
Jeezy: How do I?
1180
01:32:17.300 --> 01:32:20.350
Chuck: Well, Manny would make some Mark Robinson comparison.
1181
01:32:20.350 --> 01:32:21.290
Jeezy: Yep.
1182
01:32:23.410 --> 01:32:26.719
Chuck: Of the hypocrisy, but yeah, that, bruh.
1183
01:32:27.080 --> 01:32:28.129
Jeezy: Wow. And for that.
1184
01:32:28.130 --> 01:32:28.780
Chuck: Yeah.
1185
01:32:28.780 --> 01:32:32.290
Jeezy: You two individuals are pickles of the week.
1186
01:32:33.200 --> 01:32:35.730
Jeezy: So, with that being said.
1187
01:32:36.130 --> 01:32:55.410
Jeezy: conclusion of our episode, and as you guys always know at the end, we give you our spotlights of the week. So, our spotlights are things that we're looking at, looking forward to, coming up, things that, seem to be coming down the pipeline that we want to make you guys aware of. So, my brother, what are your spotlight or spotlights for the week?
1188
01:32:55.960 --> 01:33:09.820
Chuck: My spotlight for the week, excuse me, is something that has already happened, but there's a lot more than the eye can see. That sounds like a Transformer episode.
1189
01:33:09.820 --> 01:33:10.560
Jeezy: Bruh.
1190
01:33:10.730 --> 01:33:21.770
Chuck: But, this raid in Chicago at 5700 South South Shore, Drive, I think that's the address, South Shore Drive.
1191
01:33:21.940 --> 01:33:30.749
Chuck: They raided ICE, and federal agents raided this apartment building. Excuse me.
1192
01:33:31.100 --> 01:33:41.840
Chuck: in Chicago, detaining American citizens, amongst others. I think it was, like, 37 people were arrested at this apartment building.
1193
01:33:42.150 --> 01:33:51.099
Chuck: And… Bust into their apartments and homes in odd hours, pointing guns on men, women, and children.
1194
01:33:51.510 --> 01:33:53.669
Chuck: That in itself is disturbing.
1195
01:33:53.830 --> 01:33:56.200
Chuck: Although they claimed they were going at the…
1196
01:33:56.360 --> 01:34:00.409
Chuck: Alleged gang members. No gang members were arrested.
1197
01:34:00.890 --> 01:34:03.810
Chuck: But, hey, that's been the rhetoric the whole time.
1198
01:34:04.220 --> 01:34:09.150
Chuck: But what gets me… Yes, you want to keep an eye on…
1199
01:34:09.520 --> 01:34:19.069
Chuck: Them running up in these type of settings and homes without a warrant and without any substantial evidence of gang activity.
1200
01:34:20.880 --> 01:34:27.909
Chuck: But if you dig a little deeper, and as… Chris Tucker told Jackie Chan, Follow the money.
1201
01:34:27.910 --> 01:34:30.620
Jeezy: Something doesn't sit right in this situation.
1202
01:34:31.140 --> 01:34:40.580
Chuck: So the building… that was raided… Had a, little legal issue going on.
1203
01:34:42.210 --> 01:34:47.729
Chuck: the, the owner was being sued
1204
01:34:48.060 --> 01:34:53.229
Chuck: By Wells Fargo, because the building was coming up for foreclosure.
1205
01:34:53.810 --> 01:34:56.880
Chuck: And there were already a bunch of complaints
1206
01:34:57.050 --> 01:35:08.359
Chuck: From the residents about the building owner essentially being a slumlord and not having the building in acceptable working conditions.
1207
01:35:08.530 --> 01:35:15.559
Chuck: So for this particular building to be raided at the same time that
1208
01:35:16.650 --> 01:35:25.179
Chuck: you know, you're up in a lawsuit. I want to say it was a $27 million foreclosure lawsuit.
1209
01:35:27.220 --> 01:35:29.129
Chuck: Due to missed loan payments.
1210
01:35:30.450 --> 01:35:35.589
Chuck: But all of a sudden, you're raiding it and snatching people out, and…
1211
01:35:36.070 --> 01:35:39.690
Chuck: You know, taking… displacing families, and…
1212
01:35:40.060 --> 01:35:44.649
Chuck: It just… you gotta follow the money. Yeah. You have to follow…
1213
01:35:45.050 --> 01:35:46.400
Chuck: You have to follow the money.
1214
01:35:46.400 --> 01:35:47.160
Jeezy: They deserve a little…
1215
01:35:48.920 --> 01:35:51.979
Audio shared by Jeezy: Yes, yeah, you're right, you're right, you're right.
1216
01:35:52.850 --> 01:36:02.109
Chuck: And so, you know, again, the… the mask of… immigration rate…
1217
01:36:02.230 --> 01:36:15.069
Chuck: as it continues throughout this country, it becomes more and more disgusting. The report… I won't go into depth on the reports that came out of this raid, but, you know, there was reports of…
1218
01:36:15.330 --> 01:36:34.929
Chuck: you know, guns being pointed at children. There were even reports that, there were naked kids being drug out of the building and, excuse me, and detained. And people would, you know, very little clothing on, being zip-tied and handcuffed and detained.
1219
01:36:35.150 --> 01:36:38.489
Chuck: As they were being pulled out of this building, so…
1220
01:36:38.590 --> 01:36:43.640
Chuck: That in itself is very disturbing.
1221
01:36:43.910 --> 01:36:47.499
Chuck: And as you hear more and more stories about these raids.
1222
01:36:47.760 --> 01:36:53.279
Chuck: They are treating… these agents are treating these individuals as… as…
1223
01:36:53.490 --> 01:36:59.729
Chuck: Not a human. And I think that's been our theme for the past 30 minutes or so.
1224
01:36:59.730 --> 01:37:00.370
Jeezy: Yeah.
1225
01:37:00.560 --> 01:37:13.480
Chuck: treat people like humans. And… but, like I said, the… the underlying nature of this building and what has already been going on, and at $27 million, that's not no little piece of change.
1226
01:37:13.480 --> 01:37:14.680
Jeezy: No, I sure ain't.
1227
01:37:15.240 --> 01:37:20.120
Chuck: So, that's my spotlight. Yeah.
1228
01:37:20.620 --> 01:37:21.410
Jeezy: Alright.
1229
01:37:21.660 --> 01:37:27.480
Jeezy: Whoa… My spotlight is, going over, going over the waters.
1230
01:37:27.730 --> 01:37:31.189
Jeezy: Japan… Has made history.
1231
01:37:32.290 --> 01:37:33.950
Jeezy: Sanai?
1232
01:37:34.670 --> 01:37:37.940
Jeezy: Tekachi, Shout out to Sinati.
1233
01:37:38.200 --> 01:37:40.910
Chuck: Well, you hit that Takachi kind of…
1234
01:37:40.910 --> 01:37:41.280
Jeezy: Yay!
1235
01:37:41.280 --> 01:37:43.280
Chuck: Legit one, you're kind of legit one.
1236
01:37:43.280 --> 01:37:47.600
Jeezy: Hey, look, let me tell you, you know, hey, I gotta… you gotta be versatile, brother.
1237
01:37:47.980 --> 01:37:57.229
Jeezy: But, she has won the leadership of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, putting her on track to become the country's first female…
1238
01:37:57.390 --> 01:37:58.410
Jeezy: Prime Minister.
1239
01:37:58.730 --> 01:37:59.670
Chuck: Oh, dope.
1240
01:37:59.670 --> 01:38:17.320
Jeezy: So she has to go through one more vote, which, likely, she will pass. Typically, whoever is the leader of the liberal, Democratic Party in Japan is the prime minister. There's another group, I believe they're… I forgot, I think they're, like, the Diet Party or something like that.
1241
01:38:17.480 --> 01:38:18.570
Jeezy: But…
1242
01:38:18.950 --> 01:38:33.059
Jeezy: She is coming in and could potentially be confirmed by Japan's parliament, but she's gonna face some massive challenges. They have a sluggish economy, they have a tense relationship with China.
1243
01:38:33.060 --> 01:38:42.070
Jeezy: And high, there'll be obviously high public expectations as the nation's first woman. So, I made that as a spotlight, because first of all, that's just dope.
1244
01:38:42.660 --> 01:38:43.499
Chuck: Very much so.
1245
01:38:43.500 --> 01:38:45.160
Jeezy: So shout out to Sanaa.
1246
01:38:45.290 --> 01:39:02.889
Jeezy: For potentially becoming, which it looks likely that she'll be the first female prime minister. And it'll be interesting as far as what her cabinet will look like, her early economic moves, and how, Japan's, allies react to her rise, especially with some of the tension, again, that she has with
1247
01:39:02.890 --> 01:39:05.900
Jeezy: That the country has with Japan.
1248
01:39:06.030 --> 01:39:18.570
Jeezy: Excuse me, China, sorry, with China, and I thought that was pretty dope, man. So, you know, shout out to her, shout out to Japan, anytime y'all want the boys to come over, and do a little international pod,
1249
01:39:18.570 --> 01:39:20.320
Chuck: My passport is ready.
1250
01:39:20.320 --> 01:39:24.080
Jeezy: Bruh, as long as… ain't that where they got the Mario Kart, joining?
1251
01:39:24.080 --> 01:39:25.010
Chuck: Yes, sir.
1252
01:39:25.010 --> 01:39:30.370
Jeezy: Look, y'all just make sure y'all got a safe passage.
1253
01:39:30.730 --> 01:39:38.289
Jeezy: And, safe lodging, and the boys are coming, and we'll sit down with you, Mr. Nye, and, chop it up with you, get you going.
1254
01:39:38.290 --> 01:39:38.770
Chuck: And we'll…
1255
01:39:38.770 --> 01:39:40.140
Jeezy: People are right with the boys?
1256
01:39:40.140 --> 01:39:42.479
Chuck: And we'll get Mandy's permission slips on.
1257
01:39:42.890 --> 01:39:45.750
Chuck: We'll make sure Manny put an extra slip and sign, so he can…
1258
01:39:45.750 --> 01:39:47.070
Jeezy: He can come on a trip.
1259
01:39:47.470 --> 01:39:56.800
Jeezy: So yeah, that is my spotlight of the week. So that reaches our conclusion of Season 2, Episode 39. Our brother, again, is last week.
1260
01:39:56.970 --> 01:40:01.700
Jeezy: I appreciate you standing in the gap, as Manny has been downgraded.
1261
01:40:02.240 --> 01:40:02.770
Chuck: Awesome.
1262
01:40:02.770 --> 01:40:09.720
Jeezy: And it's been a joy and a pleasure, and I think, as we joke in our podcast group chat.
1263
01:40:09.980 --> 01:40:16.560
Jeezy: We're gonna try our best to tote the line of comfortability for the podcast.
1264
01:40:17.190 --> 01:40:22.860
Jeezy: So you, you may notice that we, we may be a little, a little more… .
1265
01:40:23.660 --> 01:40:26.869
Chuck: I don't know what word to even use, bruh.
1266
01:40:27.140 --> 01:40:28.410
Jeezy: We're a little more something.
1267
01:40:28.720 --> 01:40:31.040
Chuck: That fit, give you a little more something.
1268
01:40:31.040 --> 01:40:31.580
Jeezy: A little more.
1269
01:40:31.580 --> 01:40:33.099
Chuck: They sell nails. They sell something else.
1270
01:40:33.100 --> 01:40:41.690
Jeezy: But as I say, when the cat's away, the mice shall play, so we're gonna, try to give as much stress to Manny as he hear these episodes that,
1271
01:40:41.690 --> 01:40:42.260
Chuck: Yeah, hopefully by.
1272
01:40:42.260 --> 01:41:00.050
Jeezy: By the time he returns, we haven't burned the podcast down, but it's a pleasure, brother, to do this with you. As always, I want to thank the listeners for tuning in. Yes, yes. Hope this episode finds you at peace, at ease, and if not, may peace find you as soon as it possibly can.
1273
01:41:00.080 --> 01:41:02.030
Chuck: Brother, you got anything?
1274
01:41:02.200 --> 01:41:04.089
Chuck: Yes, I have two words.
1275
01:41:04.090 --> 01:41:04.900
Jeezy: Okay.
1276
01:41:05.160 --> 01:41:07.070
Chuck: that start with the letter N.
1277
01:41:07.070 --> 01:41:08.189
Jeezy: Okay. Wait, hold on.
1278
01:41:08.190 --> 01:41:11.979
Chuck: You can't say those… you can't say those two N-words.
1279
01:41:11.980 --> 01:41:13.579
Jeezy: I was about to say this.
1280
01:41:13.730 --> 01:41:18.009
Jeezy: They sound like… bruh, Trump be wanting to say it so bad, too, bruh.
1281
01:41:18.010 --> 01:41:34.660
Chuck: Trump… listen, and I'm glad we really didn't even waste our time talking about that mess. I know it was my spotlight, and it… I had an attitude about it, because I had an attitude in regard… for those individuals, but I had to bring up that point, because that was just the funniest point.
1282
01:41:34.660 --> 01:41:36.010
Jeezy: Can't say them two ends, bruh.
1283
01:41:36.010 --> 01:41:51.320
Chuck: Can't say them two ends, so… But no, outside of that, man, it's… as always, it's a pleasure, to be in this space with you, and, Phil, you know, yeah, stepping in for my brother Manny, who…
1284
01:41:51.320 --> 01:42:08.069
Chuck: you know, get well, brother, you know, I got your back no matter what. Check out my podcast, Encompass Podcast, N-C-O-M-P-A-S-S-D. Outside of that, man, I thank y'all for listening, and thank you, Jeezy. I appreciate you, brother.
1285
01:42:08.070 --> 01:42:13.679
Jeezy: Yes, sir, indeed, indeed. We will catch you all at the next episode.
