[Assistant] To be quite frank, I was never really a fan of the launcher name. Like, like, when you see me up here at podcasts, when you see me at Good Morning America, you know, when I appeared, uh, the other week for The Last of Us, I didn't put, submit my name as Gene Park of launcher. I submitted my name as Gene Park of the Washington Post because I recognized the power of the branding of the Washington Post.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was just told that they want that innovation within the core product, so I guess that's just me, and I think the rest of the team was also innovated to, and I wish that they were brought along, and there's so many things, voices in my head, telling me why I was kept, and others were, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's absolute survivor skills coupled with the fact that I'm just recovering from cancer. So I'm just like, man, like, did you just not do that because I just got done with cancer? I don't know. I don't know. It's awful. It feels so, it feels so awful to be down on myself like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and like, and I hate to sound selfish, but because obviously, you know, the rest of my team is suffering, uh, a lot more than I am, uh, at least in terms of work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, yeaah, it's just, but, going back to your question, Ralph.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Our traffic was good. It was, it was, it was not bad. Like it took a hit because I was gone for a year, right? Uhm, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if, I don't know if you looked at the numbers or anything like that. Like my guess is, is that like we were, you know, because again, the, the, it was initially thought that they were going to get rid of up to two, almost 200 people. And then now we only lost 20. That's only 2% of the Washington coast, not the 9% that we feared, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My guess is that cutting off video game coverage was an easy, nice, light item that you can just slice off the budget.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, without angering, you know, the, the, the, the powerful, uh, you know, the feature section, you know, which, which is historic and, and has a huge legacy. There's also the local section, which a lot of people were afraid of, of seeing cuts because, you know, national news is the stuff that brings in the big bucks, right? But we are still.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The newspaper of Washington DC, and for me personally, I would love to have a lot more local coverage in the paper, instead of like relying on the local radio station all the time, which kind of does provide better coverage, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But my guess is that like in terms of just cutting something off and just cutting off a nice slice of the budget, we were just the easiest to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and, you know, going back to Ralph's point about whether people would come, I do agree that there is a sense that, you know, people don't go to the Washington Post for gaming news, right? Like, we're not like, they'll go to Skill Up, they'll go to Before You Buy, you know, they'll go to, like, I wanna hear what Gerard thinks about the latest Mega Man game or whatever, you know, and of course GameSpot, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, there's so much well established publications already. And, you know, I think...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But there was a good opportunity because we were the only mainstream outlet doing it, other than Bloomberg now, right? Obviously with Jason. Uhm, but before Jason got hired, we were kind of first. And then New York Times still doesn't do it at all, you know? And of course there was the coincidence and irony of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, like, what year is this? What year is this, you know? Uhm, and that is how the New York Times thinks of video games. That is exact. I'm telling you right now, like, everything you expect about what the New York Times thinks about video games is correct. Correct. You know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, here's stuff like that. I think Shannon was the one who said that a lot of people kind of, uh, my colleague Shannon Liao, who covered a lot of unionization stuff, uh, she got laid off too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She said that I think a lot of people kind of shared her sentiment, right? And, uh, that breaks my heart, you know? Uhm, I'm older.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I'm 41, and for me, for most, I've been a journalist since I was 21, so I've been, god, I've been a journalist, a newspaper journalist for 20 years now. And for that entire time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I have always also thought that my dream job doesn't exist anymore. Because I got into journalism because I wanted to cover music. I wanted to be a music critic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was never really that interested in covering video games, ever. You know? Uh, it was- it was music. I wanted to- I wanted to be Kevin Crowe in Almost Famous, hanging out with like the latest hi-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hip hop, hip hop, hip hop, uh, groups, right? And that kind of job is only, again, going back to our original point, or what we discussed earlier, that kind of job is only, there's the one guy or the one girl doing it, you know, at each newspaper. And if you, if that person doesn't retire or die,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then you're not, then you're not getting that job. That's so that was, that was really the only way you can wait.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I think someone made this point on Twitter, but like back in like 2008, there was a lot of, there was a great recession and there were a lot of layoffs. But then from that, a lot of websites popped up and, uh, and you know, there were jobs for a few good years. And so I'm wondering if that's going to happen too, but, uh, I don't know, man, like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, people think about like, oh, there should be a games journalism defector, but like, have you really thought about the, the, the, the overhead costs, the human costs of that, you know, cause that's easily going to be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, uh, seven figures, uh, in the millions, multiple millions, you know, just to, just to provide a salary, insurance, and if you do want to hire a lawyer, then obviously that's going to be even worse, you know, so that's, we're talking for anywhere from one to three million dollars a year, you know, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just for a small newsroom of like 10 or 15 people, you know? That's not gonna work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gerardo and Lucy, you both hit something that, that, that is interesting and something that I've seen a lot of in terms of like, you know, I've, I love reading comments. So I'm under the comments of all this, all this, every piece of content that talks about these layoffs, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the most prevailing, uh, things I've seen, and it is, it'll be disheartening to hear, but, uh, a lot of people feel that, you know, I see articles about unionization, I see articles about crunch, those are not things I want to pay for.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I see people just stay up straight up. That does not have any real value for me. I think it's, those are important stories, but those aren't things I want to pay for. What I do want to pay for is people I like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, you know, that is something that like Taylor Lorentz has called a long time ago and I called a long time ago in terms of like personality-based journalism. Uhm, that is something that hasn't gone away. It's only gotten stronger, you know, over the years. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, that sucks because that, you know, that, that, that car's all, uh, that, that, that's a big gatekeep for people who aren't, you know, like, like just outgoing or like, like just have built-in personalities or trait or, or well-media trained. Like I'm not even, I don't think I'm even that medium trained. You know, I'm trying to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly, because a lot of it, like you said, is aggregation, that you're pulling stories from GameSpot, from IGN, from Bloomberg, from the Washington Post, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I was an intern at the San Gabriel Valley Tribune in 2003, uh, my editor told me, don't become a journalist. He said, like, in general, he was like, are you kidding me? I remember distinctly what he said. He said, my wife hates me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My health is, my health is terrible. I only earn 60, $60,000 a year and I've been in this job for like 30 years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, uh, like, like, look at my fingers, they're broken and they're, they're gray. He was like, don't do this. And that, that scared me. That scared me away from journalism. And I actually did not, my first job when I applied out of college was not in journalism. Fun fact, it was actually with Golan Harris, the PR firm for Nintendo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I did, I did not get the job because I got into a car accident right before the interview. So yeah, so I showed up completely disheveled and scared and nervous and they were like, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Find, like, it's kinda like what Lucy said, like, history of man stuff, you know, find a good...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like to go to different audiences, you know, like I think a lot of my audience discovered me through the podcast Castle Superbeast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It helps to really find your angle of coverage. Focus on one thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you can see that, yeaah, for sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And uh, yeaah, just find your angle, specialize in one thing, that's probably, that's probably, and you can grow from there, right? That's true, that's true. I mean, look at what Gerard has done, he's the completionist, man, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To, to, to, to, to get people to subscribe, man. Because there are kids out there paying $5 a month for a Twitch streamer, and they are getting one service, which is enjoying the content and entertainment from that streamer. That's it, right? Hot tubs. You know, hot tubs maybe, whatever, you know, ASMR, whatever, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Investigative journalism into the government. You get food recipes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The reviews of the latest tech, you know. You don't get wordled. That's one thing, man. No word.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no, I slacked off the New York Times earlier, uh, and, but like that was a very, very smart acquisition for them and I wish we were, we were as aggressive and smart as the Washington Post.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But still, we are still the second most subscribed newspaper in the United States, and we are still far behind the New York Times, which has kind of become like the Netflix or like the essential, like the Xbox Game Pass, I guess, of, of, of, of regular journalism, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And everything else would be supplemental, you know, so if you want, if you're really that interested in coverage of the federal government, then The Washington Post would be a great thing. Or if you're into business, then The Wall Street Journal. Those are the only three papers really that are having any kind of success right now in subscriptions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Going back to your original point Jake, I don't know man, like there's so much, there's so much content going around asking for money and there's only so little of your money to spend, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, so, again, to what Gerard said, like, you know, yeaah, I might have praised Gerard for being completionist, but he reminded me, and it's true, that he had to fight for every single viewer, every step of the way, and it wasn't easy, and he's still doing it, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listen, I have, I have been responsible for the foundation of teams before the Washington Post, you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, you know, to give myself a little credit, I do have a lot, I've been there at the Washington Post for almost eight years now at this point. I have a lot of institutional knowledge of how that paper works, how the company works, uh, how people operate there, the different managers and the politics of the place, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, you know, I was the person who started the live streaming coverage of news at the Washington Post. And because of, because I was doing all that by myself, I had a tripod and a camera and everything like that, I was just running around the newsroom filming different reporters who were super nervous to be on camera.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And because of that success, uh, I was able to make an argument to hire an entire team of live stream coverage. And we still have that there. And that eventually, those hires eventually led to the Washington Put TikTok, which is very successful right now too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I'm gonna try my best to do that again. Again, I'm getting older, I'm a lot more tired. But, uh, yeaah, I definitely want to prove out that there can be some high interest in Washington Post for games coverage. And people would want to pay for that and so many other things that we offer. Well, we're glad you're back out on the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was Q1 of next year and I got pushed to just a date. So I don't know how that happened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very weird. That, uh, there you go. That sucks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I almost did it for Nintendo one time and it was the, it was the most heartbreaking moment of my life. I'm so glad I was paying attention. And I think I told this story to you guys privately one time, but it was one of our, on our, our rehearsal podcasts. Um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was working on a project and I had to be on the road, so I said it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm driving up the freeway, and because I'm an irresponsible human being, I have YouTube on my phone with, uh, direct ready to go thinking, okay, two o'clock's when it's gonna start, uh, that's when it should start, uh, I'm at two o'clock and it hadn't started yet, right? It's because, it's because it's supposed to be later on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was like, Oh, okay. I did the math check. I was about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe 45 minutes away from, from leaking cloud to the whole entire world.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I pulled off the freeway, almost crashed my car, and I was in the area where there was no reception, and I couldn't call or use my phone, I was struggling to get it to work, I got in my car and just kept driving on the freeway, eventually got enough reception, pulled over,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ralph, Ralph, can I ask you a question? Please. Not that I, not that I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think anyone should ever receive unsolicited harassment or anything like that. You should be responsible everyone, don't do that kind of stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not cool. If you wouldn't want to be treated that way, why'd you do it to others?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But did, did Bungie do anything recently that would warrant this kind of behavior that, or is this always kind of, this is me asking ignorantly, cause I'm not a, I'm not an original Halo guy, I'm not a Destiny guy, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm curious too though, cause I think that the biggest elephant in this room is social media and the ability to be so accessible, right? I think all of us are in this industry, have been in this for a while. We have large followings online and people watch our content and they dig what we put out. But you know, it's not like suddenly,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And those outlets to express yourself existed when we were 10, 11, 12, 13 years old. Club Penguin maybe. Haba Hotel. RuneScape. Club Penguin. RuneScape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whereas there are people now who have lived their whole life with social media and they don't know a world without it. And that ability...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For understanding how important social media is, is obviously important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To the business. There is value in paying a maze to make a commercial for, in conjunction with Bungie and Destiny. There is value in me appearing in Nintendo commercials to promote, you know, a Zelda game, right? There's value there. At the same time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There also is the value aspect that everyone thinks is that I have a voice and my voice means something. And how loud I bark, how-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How loud I use that voice determines the effectiveness of it and I think that's the scariest part because then it's just a bunch of people yelling and screaming and making noise and no one, it's not about listening anymore, it's just about attacking and exploding and that's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I was gonna say, there are game companies that learn those lessons hard ways as well with their community, right? We saw what happened with No Man's Sky, and, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How that evolved and now that game is in an incredible spot and people will love to be like, I was playing no man's sky in 2022. You pick it up and you're like, Oh God, there, there's a insane amount of quality of life updates and it works and it feels like the game they promised. And that's crazy. Um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then there's cyberpunk where.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They really messed up. They deserve the criticism. Uhm, and they're- Talked too much. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It just feels like with this medium of technology where we're always plugged in 24-7, there is no way to win anymore. It's just, it's either it works or it doesn't, and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the hardest part, cause it's again, nothing instigated this, right? Like nothing instigated this whole bungee thing. And yet it became such a vitriol thing that we're talking about and it sucks. Like it should just be like, I went to work today, nine to five, and I had a good day instead of, oh, my entire life was ruined because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some guy online was attacking me and that sucks cause we've been through that multiple times. I definitely have, but I just don't talk about it because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It happens every day and talking about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like the game is seven years old and they're still...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Releasing updates, putting characters, balancing the game, taking away features, doing weekly or monthly events, quarterly events, like they're-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the community is still growing. There are content creators who focus specifically on competitive Day by Daylight and stream only that game. And the community, the people who make the game, the developers are streaming it themselves because they love their product. Like it's a through and through.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thing, is the community perfect? Absolutely not. But...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're very aware of their community, they're very in tune, and I think they've used their feedback from their, their, I think they're called the Whisperers, is their, is their ambassador program where they basically have content creators and streamers in the highest quality, uh, that they trust to basically give them


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's kind of like letting the hardcore players who know what they're talking about ingest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's not necessarily a balance per se, but I definitely think they do a great job at, at listening to their audience that's constantly consuming their product.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Incredible performer. Does a, does a, does a great job as Albert Wesker. He carries the show. The main problem with the show is that he's not in it enough. And I have, it's like someone did their homework and still failed the test.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They, they, they got, they had the study nights. Everyone knew what was going on. And then the test came and they failed and it's so, and that's the, everything's canonical. All the games are canon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And yet, at the same time, nothing is connected to it. Nothing. Wait a minute.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me tell you, it's told in two settings with a third setting at the bottom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it takes place in Resi- in Raccoon City.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm curious, Ralph, the revisionist comments that you said, were they appearing on your videos or the general reviews across the zeitgeist? Both. I saw it a lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, in the early 2010s of YouTube and like mid 2010s of YouTube where content creators would make a video, and I was guilty of this, uh, where you get in the mindset of this game equals this sentence and like the thesis of my


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 30 minute piece on this Sonic game or this, uh, highly contested Assassin's Creed game is the joke and thesis and then you see comment sections after comment sections about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The same statement and it's like, oh, it's a, that's a completionist reference. That's a, that's a peanut butter gamer reference or whatever. And it's like, it kind of takes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It kind of, in a way, it adds to what you're saying, Ralph. It kind of like, invalid, er, it takes away from what the piece is, contextually. It just goes, oh, it's, it's just a comment. It's just a comment that this one creator said that I identify with, and that's the thing I'm going to keep saying. Obviously not the same thing, but I see that often, I see it happen more often now than before, for sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I, and I would looked up IGN, they did an article on


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Arkham Asylum when it first came out and there was some dreaded news about DLC and collector editions and how that whole thing was released.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We all cared for like a whole five minutes, but we moved on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The combat is what sold me. I hate to say that it's like Dark Souls because that's the meme, right? But I definitely...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So interesting. Every, every major boss fight I've had has been just like a, um, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Art wise, they're, they're so interesting, right? Obviously it's a 2D game, but the bosses are, have this like isometric 3D going on with it. And you're like, every time I fought a boss, I just was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This, I don't want to fight this. I want to hang out with it. I wanted to, I want to, I want to own it like a pet. It looks so bad ass. Um, so yeah, I don't know. The combat is just.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here, the truth is, is that I don't know if I've expressed this before with you guys or the audience at large. I don't like sim games. I'm not the Sims guy. I'm not the Animal Crossing guy. I'm not the bear and breakfast guy. You know, that's what everyone else is playing and loving right now. Uh, I don't, I,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I get call to the lamb. Call to lamb is the first game that is like pulled me in to be cool with it. I don't know. Maybe it's because it's just like a, well, everyone loves me in game, so I'm cool with it, but it doesn't, it doesn't


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly. I need my ego as large as it can be. Uh, no, I think it's just there's this thing of, it doesn't feel chore-y.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everything has purpose. Everything feels like the dopamine hit. Everything feels good to, to do. Whereas an Animal Crossing or, or Bear in Breakfast, I always felt like, oh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get this thing to do this thing and then do this thing to get this thing. At least with, with, with Cult of the Lamb, I feel like progress is interwoven throughout my journey and it felt really nice to experience that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It just, it just feels like Xenoblade 2 came out not that long ago. The fact that they were like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And another 100 hour JRPG for the fandom. Enjoy. And it's got all this music and yeah, you're welcome. See you in 18 months for the warriors game that will definitely come out. It's like, I do think they just relax.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I, I was, I am playing Spider-Man, which Ralph talked about. I am, I just started playing Cult of the Lamb, which Lucy, you talked about. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm always, always, always playing Vampire Survivors on my Steam Deck. So no new updates there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've been really trying to like Klonoa. I know I talked about this last episode, but I, I took all the feedback to heart and I tried picking it up again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I just, I just couldn't, I couldn't get into it. I feel like, I feel like the last couple of weeks I've just been like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just did a video on Kingdom Hearts. Well, I did do a video on Kingdom Hearts too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I guess I could talk about that. Uh, I had never played, I never played the final mix version of the game, so this was my first time playing the final mix PS4 edition, the best version of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like all the extra content. If you're a fan of Kingdom Hearts, there are some tough bosses in this game. The whole end game section is like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like a plaza of doors and you walk in and you're having these crazy hard fights and they're all really fun. Um, I love Pirates of the Caribbean. The PS2 version ruined the music and they fixed the music.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now it's like they went in and actually like, let's fix this. Let's, let's give it a little more um, and they did. And it sounds way closer than to he's a pirate from Hans Zimmer and his crew. Um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Immediately 10 out of 10 in my book, uh, in that, in that, uh, respect. But the hard bosses was, I was not expecting to get my ass whipped as hard as I did. I don't know if you guys are familiar with those bosses, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of like, haha, you're dead one hit moves that just require you to change your strategy. But the nice thing about playing a game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That everyone knows and loves online on Twitch is that everyone's like, Hey, I know the strategy. You want me to help you let me know or give you some hints. So that's been really fun about playing some of those older games. It's just Twitch chat. My Twitch chat is kick ass. They're the greatest. They're always just like, Hey, don't give up. Try this thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Movies. I consume movies a lot. It's my passion and drive. It's what I wanted to make and create when I was young and it's what I got into my field for of acting in film. Uh, never, never really pursued making a movie. I made some short films, but yeah, I'm a huge movie buff. I'm watching movies several times a week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you have, besides gaming, any hobbies before you got into games? Or is just always games was your hobby?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, this is, this is one that I think Ralph and I can answer pretty easily, but we'll make it interesting. Matt G asks, I want to know what's that one game that everyone loves, but you just don't. Oh God.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ralph, I struggle like you in that I don't have a lot of hobbies, right? Film is my hobby that I say, but like honestly, consuming content is, is the vibe, right? You kind of nailed it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Animal Crossing is doing chores and designing things and making it perfect for who you are as a person.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get a game that's just that passive. I feel like if Animal Crossing had a narrative or if I cared about being a villager or if there were stakes, I would be so much more invested. And I just, I've tried, I've tried during the pandemic. Believe me, I tried.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a game that I pick up and I kept going, I don't get it. And I, and it's not that I'm like, anyone who plays Animal Crossing is boring and sucks. I just don't, I just don't get it. I've tried and tried and I can't try anymore.

[Assistant] When I came earlier, before we came on set, before we came on live, I told you that why I used to eat very much then is because there was poverty. So I have to eat, when I see it, I will eat it the way I see it, like a ruminant animal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How old were you at this time?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, she was in the university. Teacher and all that, you understand? So that's one, that's part of it. So the village, before I could acclimatize to the village settings, it was serious. Then it was, when I was four, when I was twelve, I traveled, I went on trans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I stop talking to everybody because I want to acclimatize. I think, you know, eleven.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So mom will come, mom will come first year, second year, mom will come second year first, mom, mom was rich, no money again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've always liked love to inspire people. I know. I've trained myself in the village. They trained me how to bear, how to bear pains.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You understand? And I know that everybody, every young chap, what they want is prosperity. How do we make it? How do we make it? How do we get there? How do we, that's, that's not what I have in my mind. What I always have in my mind is that, how do I acquire more knowledge to relate well with human beings? Because human beings are complex.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any house is our house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That man actually taught me more morals. That man taught me how to be contented. That man taught me how to make sure that the man, the training the man gave me is you have to condemn yourself that you are nothing.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is why we are not getting much. We are getting crumbs from people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only help you can do to us all is to make sure you go to school.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My grandma will be telling me that in heaven, if you want me to be happy, make sure that you have that education. So where I won't go do house help, I'll just tell them that if you know I cannot go to school, I cannot work here.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I called all my memory back that the one that suffered me in K2, the one that suffered, that I've forgiven everybody once today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm trying to infuse pain on other people that are innocent, based on what I've gone through. And I've noticed that that is the human error, that's the problem I see in every human. Because somebody don't show you wahala. No means they come to show them wahala, make them go through what you go through. Ababiko, you be like those people be that now.

[Assistant] Let's send this really. How do I get to the mission as I was troubled only?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the Reverend Father that was in charge of me was Reverend Father Bernard Agu. So that gave me Bernard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So why my name? I say your name because you are my mentor in spiritual father. So I was baptized after that village.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well yeaah, in the marriage, the marriage issue is like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I noticed that people like to write. There was no, let me say there was more of social media was just coming, shacking people then during that time, like 10 years ago, so they really needed stories.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They needed to write things and if I have to sweep you off your feet now, I will tell you that just like two years ago, I became a computer person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I never saw computer in the village. Remember, I skipped that. So how do I know about internet? Nothing. My Facebook wasn't set up by me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was the one I was dating in London. My, I don't know how to operate, uh, what's it called? Uhm, TikTok, Snapchat. TikTok, Snapchat, all that. That's why you wouldn't see any social media. I don't know how to do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know anything about it. So, she opened the page for me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So who is sending something to who?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you understand? Sending some, somebody's crying that that Babati took money from that person. No. The relationship I had with that person was pure. Was not a relationship of, eh, sugar mommy that I want to get something from the person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it that you like older women that was coming to that path?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That has nothing to do with benefit of maybe you want to live in London or you want to get money from somebody or somebody is getting money from somebody. And I see that it was a manipulative relationship.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, so that's, we don't have anywhere to stay now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So what are we gonna do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So three of us, we were given a room, then we go around, you know, as a new Jambito.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay. Okay, no problem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The person taking us around with her car needs to fill out the car as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we started things were going on, things were going on, things were going on. Then, on a fateful day, I even asked the lady boss like that,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So one night was second to the last day that I would leave London. I entered it. I just came in and the way I met her was surprise. Then I was like, how far? I was surprised how?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How can it be love? Okay. So you had sex before you called it dating.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And sexually. Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The first abuse I got was a big dirty slap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you live there for four years?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The other areas are not there again, so it has to be me and her. That was when I started chopping my...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Voila. So we go home. There was no anything. She kept me to where she was driving. I was like, what happened? What happened?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I got home as it was a resounding slap. Bow. Who was that person that you were hugging?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said, is it jealousy or what? Are you crazy? Who was that person? You don't have to be slapping me. You don't have to do this to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hmmmmm, Africa and China matter. In fact, there was a day she was angry we were driving at Onslo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, I'm a water hamster. She just said get the fuck out of my car.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, obsession like she's tell us like, get the fuck out of my car. So later, the obsession became threat, like I'm going to deal with you, I'm going to show you not come to London again, I will let you know that this is London, where are you, eh, this, this, that, that, that, that, ah, this is toxic, what am I going to do? How do I come out of this? Bondage. I started journalism.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that I didn't walk back. Who is this person's self? Because I don't be social person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, Babs, I didn't mean Ruth's daughter, eh? Ah, a writer, eh?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coming to London on a platter of gold. Yeaah. Just see one person, you just see somebody. Now even my god people where they don't, ah, okay, I don't say, okay, I don't do for nera for myself. How do I get out of it? So I came out of it. Forcefully. So after a year, I came to London. Then the police called me. The path no one has ever had.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hello, here we have been accused of, uh, assault and, uh, threat to life by, uh, somebody here although, you know, I just want to say, ah, I'm not there yet. So I'm not there yet in London. Nah, lie. Nobody, nobody, nobody. I cut off the phone. They called again. I cut off the phone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the British, I would say thank you to them because they were not biased about the issue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that wasn't. No, no, no, that wasn't it. Thank you very much. She wanted to buy a ring for one of our family relatives. She now said, okay, do we look, they look like, that person looks like me. We should size up the ring. So I size up the ring. Then she snaps, she snaps with her own. Then we went to another place to eat it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't really know the real story. So I kept quiet because I'm a journalist as well. Don't worry. Sell what you want to sell. After probably a decade, I will say something and we are saying it now. So we went to a party. So I just see the picture mixed the, uh, uh, see where they know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wonderful, I just say kudos, kudos, kudos.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She was older than you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we started together, she was of age like 35, I'm like 39, you understand, 39 or there about. So, and you know women, when they live somehow,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We did all we could and when we separated I had a boy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, thank you very much. Why she said that I'm still going back to that is women thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's, when a woman is bitter, when a woman is hot, she can say anything and say anything. I've been through it. I know what I'm talking about. So she's just, she's just been pained like, why is it possible? Why is this guy leaving me? Why is it possible? Why is it? Because it's made the only weapon I have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To fight you than to raise my hand on you or to have an altercation with you is abstinence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that was what, no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not that I just get angry on. I'm not a jealous person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm serious, but my fault in any relationship is like when I get angry. I'm a Taurus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When a founder that's, okay, you are, you are taking me for a ride, you are taking me for a fool, my altercation is going to be very bad though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, like that. You understand?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you did give head to woman. And woman would be say I take head to serve my head.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Small dick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you are not going to understand. So obsession for women, be conscious of this when you don't love them too much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you don't over love and finish, you will go over hate and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They do have small manhood, but some men


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As excess man would as well. You understand? Some has medium. But I'm telling you women are crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I go out at times, when I look at women at times, some women, they don't like slim guys with your six packs and everything. They like wee babasala.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'm telling you, you'll be surprised. Yes. Some like your skin. Because of skin, women will follow you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because of sweet mouth, woman before. Because of your pocket, woman before. Some women, no matter how rich you are, if you are not good looking, you will not sit their panties. They will not go to sleep with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that depends on the individual differences. That's what you like, what you want.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who is the third person? Uh, who is the third person? I'm of the opinion that it's up to five. Uh, who is, no, no, no. The third person is Mommy David.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mommy David, is she older than you are? No, I call her Mommy David.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why, is she old past you? No, I'm older, she's younger. Very young, she's younger. I met her when she was in mid-twenties. Okay. So like, uhm, we are still together though. So, Mommy David, Mommy David will be first and then complain we met. And we had sex, and that was David.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was she a fan? No, we were in the same estate. Do you understand? We live in the same estate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, so she did talk to us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This guy, this guy, this guy, this guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No go vibrate, no go vibrate, no go vibrate, no go vibrate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The little money we are making, people think it's billions of naira.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's the ability that will make you keep Mommy David?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And she's sound. But my wife knows sound like say speaking English the way because she wasn't raised in Lagos. But get it or not, take it or leave it. She writes powerfully well and she can actually defend herself when it comes to writing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah yeaah. No, I never had girls. Me, I don't have girlfriends like that. Yeaah, if I'm alone, I pay for sex.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay. Yeah, if I'm alone, I'm not in a relationship because I don't know. The relationship that you know will lead to nowhere. You are just winding each other. Okay, how much you go pay? God will help me. Okay, this. I pay for sex.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anybody that I've met, like others, eh, maybe somebody's trying to, I'm alone. How much? Please, woke up. Thank you. Thank you, I beg you. How much? C50? C100? I know. Forget whining. No, I don't take money. I'm like, hm. Conclusion. I beg. Money. Shadrach Ami.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, that's the point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nooo, because I know she's sound. Because she's not a Lagos breed, she can't speak good English. There's a preference English. She speaks good English, preference English like, the way, there are a lot of people that speak English, they can't even write. When you ask them to spell pneumonia, they will start spelling rubbish. They will tell you pneumonia is not spelled from P. It will start from N.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a problem a lot of people make. I know people they know. You guys know I'm real.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, that's why you don't like me. That's why you see me like this, that, that. The actor, whatever, I've noticed one thing. If I'm dating you, and we're in the same guild, and you're telling me to make it secretive between me and you, so that you can go behind to go and fuck Nidu.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How many have told you to do hide and seek?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now we need to give them money chop now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So spiritually, I think it is not good where you walk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's what you're saying. You know what, there's what we call fallacy of irrelevant conclusion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Bakulon and Bekulon, because they say from the premises, lawyers are liars. Bola is a lawyer. So therefore, you are now concluding that all lawyers are liars. That is Falashio's statement. That's not what I'm saying. From my axis, my ratio, the way I've been seeing it while growing up, and those that are anti-medicine, they say, ah,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Why is it very difficult for a celebrity to have genuine love? I'll tell you. To have or to find? To find genuine love. To have and to find, to find and to have or to even imagine it. I'll tell you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imagine a footballer that is coming to ask you out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't know, you don't, everybody don't know saying I miss you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So when they are coming to you, it's for you to capitalize, to start continuity of where, because she can't, Nedu cannot hide himself. You already know Nedu, don't pretend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, you do your profiling before meeting you. So by the time, probably, I don't, I wouldn't know if Nedu is asking me out if I'm a woman.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you go wrong, celebrities are, they are, they are being stigmatized as somebody that has no soul.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, yes. Like this one now. Okay, like the third one I mentioned. The third one I mentioned. The first one. Just relationship, not marriage. You are hearing it from me now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Talk to me. Please, solve it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That you can't trace them. They don't have profiling. They are not on social media.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You drag us like we want to die. There's some people that are there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To our industry, to people, to relationships, I'm telli- or at some point in time when I had a problem issue with my woman, I noticed she doesn't listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When I talk to her, she believes that I saw you date all those people, and I'm the artist, and I'm this. Listen, do you know why I'm so conscious about your movement, your way, is because if anything happens to you, it's still going, coming back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If anything happens to you, okay, let's say now you travel to Abuja without my knowledge and you are coming back to Lagos and something happened to you and I'm not aware of your movements.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Da babati babati. Unki da ge sololi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And when we talk, they say we are saying too much. So celebrities save us. We are human beings. We are not aliens. We are not terminators. The money I spend every day is more than what I earn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The campaign that I campaigned, there will be people listening, that campaigned for Tinumbu, where you say Tinumbu has given heavy money, nobody gave me cobor, nobody gave me money. But because I benefited from Tinumbu free education, then security during RRS. They used to write letters to us, Generation Z.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But when the new book came, everything was, Lagos was, was reformed. I won't lie to you. We do have live lights. We don't have anything. When we move in the night, we are scared.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In Lagos then, my mum used to sell money then, on the island. They would just come, all the money we made, they ended the money like this. Everybody, you don't even have to argue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yes now. So the AGN, we started that, the way I joined them was during time we were at Winni's and, uh, Tobii and all that. So when we go for auditioning they need like 30 people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then we leave.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So at first act, uh, uh, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ben Adantoni, Ben Adantoni. That's why I go present Ben Adantoni. That guy now said, Siri Jackson.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sidney Jackson, what culture I was, chancel culture, we were all together. They know me, then I know them. So, Sidney Jackson, I said, what's your name then?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are you from Michigan? Are you from U.S.?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was the reaction?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. So that was how we started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I was like, wow. So I can get a platform. Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. So we started.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I started going, I met Uncle Labia, I started going, I have to be behind the shoes, I won't get there. What's happening? I won't get there. Is he laughing? I won't get there. All these people, please, can you help? I won't get there. So I'm a, and my best friend was Shehilo. We were very close.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mike. Mike.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My intellectual property. Ohhhh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, is it true?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would destroy everything. Why can't you be using my imagi- intellectual property?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You understand that I'm done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I start fighting over Shehi now, Shehi is there already, nobody knows me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, let me relax for Sheyi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I was like, how do I start? I will get you. Don't worry. I'm coming. Keep going. Uh, in fact, I had to text him one day. I texted his manager one day that you are there. Let me be your PA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So before the Yoruba comedy,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uhm, I said yes, I'm the comedian in Osuie and I'm from Osu. Great Osuai, thank you very much. They made me a spontaneous comedian on stage. I was the school MC then.

Let me go to the boy. I'm not sure Yoruba people, do they do stand-up comedy like Ayanko? I didn't know they have Aria Efe. Aria Efe!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People, they were, I was even beaten before I got to the hall. Because I said, I am coming to perform, they said, you are coming to perform where?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You like this? You are dressed like this? I went on stage and that was it. Entertainment day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Combination extra. So the Fuji people now accepted the Yoruba people now accepted me through the Fuji family. That's why I love Fuji people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you understand?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that was what happened. But I don't want to say she is bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that people will not say I'm angry or say he's, boy, he did me so bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I've forgiven him. Shout out to Shadelo by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, we are cool now. We met two years ago, like, uh, Yeaah. But that was what happened. But I felt so bad, like, you did not allow me. You would have no, your friend opportunity. You know what I'm saying? You did talk for-

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

[Assistant] But there is love in Nollywood, in the Igbo sector.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The wealthy and the elite that are evil, appreciate them. They enrich them. True. They put them in their parasitas, in their business, they make them so special in their business. They make them their parasitas, yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I go, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you very much. That's where the problem lies and that's why I have to tell you your value today as an entertainer. You see, as an entertainer,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or probably if you are into these podcasts, you are into movies, you are into music, you understand?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Our position and gifts is part of our dividends. Not to turn ourselves to beggars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Appreciation and gifts is part, is our right, part of our dividends. But we should not over-float and turn ourselves to beggars. Why do you rebuy industries like that? Some people when you extend to them, you give them money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are not trying to mourn them, we are not trying to mock them because of death, but it will happen to everyone. When people die, you think, yeaah, they are dying, they are not smart enough to, uh, avoid, uh, what's it called, to conquer death. No, they can, but it's their time. It will come to you one day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are selfish. They are selfish people in the sense that when you were coming, you know what you went through to become who you are today.


[User] Please transcribe this text
