[Assistant] Well, he's not from the east side. I ain't from nowhere. That's true, he ain't. Yeah. Go ahead, Mike. You guys got any more?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My oldest friend is a Steeler fan. He's not a dick, but every other Steeler fan I've met is the worst.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you go to em. So that means you, you gotta, you pay to play. I'm actually going to Pittsburgh this Sunday to see the Cubs and Pirates. Look, see? Pay to play. If you not willing to pay to see your out of town team, you're lame. By the way, I am going to Cincinnati.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The knee-jerk reaction when this case was brought was that since people were incensed about what was happening with the economy, it would be a simple type of prosecution. I think there was that general perception.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We held 19 public hearings. We reviewed millions of pages of documents, uh, corporate documents, regulatory documents, most of which had never seen the light of day. Mr. Bowen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Signaled up the line, all the way up to Robert Rubin, that something was wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they were finding that some 60% of mortgages that they were buying weren't meeting their standards. Mr. Bowen sent you an email.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Excuse at the top was, we didn't know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a pretty poor excuse from people who are hauling down 10, 20, 30, or in Robert Rubin's case, 115 million dollars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, one piece of information that we released were documents from Clayton Holdings, who performed due diligence for two dozen banks.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, who were buying mortgages from the Countrywide, the AmeriQuest, the New Centuries, packaging those loans up and selling them to investors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you look at those documents, what they show is in each of these banks, Clayton Holdings was finding that a substantial portion of the loans did not meet the standards of the bank buying those loans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And bank after bank after bank, they took those loans, they knew they were defective.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, you look at that pattern of behavior, and I think it raises very serious questions about whether this is criminal conduct.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe in a free market that's gonna be truly free. It cannot be designed for just a few people. It must be free of deception. It's gotta be free of conflicts of interest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It needs a cop on the beat and it's got to get back on Wall Street. We stand adjourned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And within 160 pages, that document essentially summed up what looks to be the core of the credit crisis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe so. Based on what we've seen thus far, uh, frankly I think there's some pretty decent evidence that the mortgage securitization industry was rotten to the core. Do you think the government should have brought criminal cases against these players? I would find it difficult to believe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wake up, white people. The pool is too late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We mean don't break our boycott. We're not talking white folks, we're talking Negroes, our folk. We have a right to discipline our people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First Amendment give us the right to peacefully protest anything that we think is wrong. Now we gonna do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you live in a state where, since my brother was killed three years ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He wanted a job to make it better for his wife and five children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How long do you want us to be patient? And then you wonder, what kind of justice are we having? What kind of country is this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was just wild rumors of what was going to happen after the blacks took over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The white people were concerned when they saw the black people carrying guns. They knew about the so-called deacons for defense. It was, uh, I'm sure very frightening to a whole lot of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Having a family department store that was owned by my mother and two uncles, we all wondered why we were, why we were picked on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After the article came out in the paper about the people being sent to parchment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I said, yeah, that's those pictures of, you know, here in Natchez.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] FBI came in and droves. Everybody knew who they were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The cars didn't have FBI on them, but they had so many antennas, you knew who they were, and they're all dressed in suits. It was very strange, uh, to me, uh, that it was all focused right here on, on matches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think he had a good working relationship with the FBI, but he felt like it was not particularly his case as much as it was the FBI's case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As far as people coming in and trying to dredge up and talk about the murders and things that took place, I think a lot of people say, why bring it up again? It's just, it's something that happened in the past and they want to get over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was some clan activity in Natchez, but it looked like a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A bunch of people running around in sheets to me and I didn't think it was that serious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Until they marched downtown and they said, that's E.L. McDaniel there. I said, that's Eddie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Excellent! Now I just need to get this water into the main supply and we'll be done!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That looks like the power console. Up there, at the top of the ladder.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's something I don't guess you ever get over. We were a lost family.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What he's noticed is the twos and the threes, as far as the defensive line go, they're getting to the quarterback within one and a half seconds. And for the DBs, it's making their job a whole lot easier. So I can see why G would feel like, okay,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a dress rehearsal game, quote, unquote. And the Browns defensive line is wrecking havoc already, while Risky and Pat Mahomes hurt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not that I can ever remember. They were always, you know, just pulling pranks on each other. It was nothing with animosity in it. It was just fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What really hurt me about today is hearing y'all's stories, man. To see that y'all still fighting. You know, it should've...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Feels good to hear that man, cause it's a lot of times where...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just feel like you out here by yourself, all alone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, but, but, but, but, I mean, this is like just a moment where we get to hang out. I know you're dying. So we'll do this. Two questions. I'll take one from the side of the audience and one from that side. Something you've always wanted to ask. Don't ask what a favorite color is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love it. Are you kidding me? Uhm, I wanted to know one thing. You are Oprah Winfrey. You have been very wealthy for a long time. You worked hard to get there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I often wonder how much normalcy there still is in your life. Like how many normal random things happen to you? Like does you- when was the last time your phone ran out of battery while you were speaking? Does that ever happen to you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the reason? That's the reason. Oh, my grandmother, my grandmother would say like, so for instance, you know when you put the washing in the basket and everything? And so everyone in the family, so I would do washing, then my cousin would do, everyone would do it, and then sometimes I would throw the underwear, and then my grandmother would come in and she'd be like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, one of the greatest pressures in my opinion of being Oprah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stop flopping around everywhere, bitch. You can't escape your fate. Okay, turn left, bitch. Ah, balls! Stop!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, of that style, that DMV flow, basically kind of punching in at the every line. So I see some people that does the DMV flow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Um, yeaah, like when it started, when people started to focus on that area around was, um, big flop, you know, free big flop, you know, you got people that's in the game a long time in that area, like Ludu. Yeah. Yeah. You got Gunu.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the thriller type thing. You do the wall? Huh? You do the wall? Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, like, I used to go to like ciphers and shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I mean the waves really chose me bro. That's really how it went.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just cut my hair a little low cause I wanted to start over. I had dyed my hair. I was going through a horrible break up and you know, you know how white girls always do something drastic and dye their hair. I was going through my white girlfriend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh no, that's the wrong color. I did like platinum silver. Oh, okay. Type shit. Yeaah. It's anime influenced.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was brushing it, just because my shit was, it stands up and curly and I ain't want that one to lay down. But I now woke up with kinda a little bit of waves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And decide to bless my scalp with, uh, the swell of anointment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, like why wouldn't you do it? It's an enhancement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, it's easy to fuck up too. The thing about waves is you maintaining a look that you only gonna display a couple hours a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause you gotta have your hair lay down. You gotta brush it all the time. Then, if you on the healthy side, you gotta wash your shit condition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I'm saying? Brushing style, it's a lot. It's maintenance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly, if you love yourself, you're into self care and shit like that, and you can get them, get waves.

And that was just like normal shit. I was just already good at it.

[Assistant] Taking a lot of road trips, going out of town, making a lot of, uh, ridiculous purchases in other people's, uh, on other people's behalf.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would assume that it could get pretty deep from like, uh, apartments and houses. Wow. Up until like, uh, maybe a motherfucker might have went in Home Depot and just had six ovens one day. You know what I'm saying? It's been, it's been things. There's been things.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Man, I was getting money how I was getting it. And then I took a big L. And if you, especially knowing what you was doing, I had Bitcoin before, um, like the whole boom and bust of it. Really? Yeah. Just like dealing with a few business partners of mine in the Ukraine.

[Assistant] You gotta really control the environment, especially with dealing with hella bitches. I like to only pour up two shots maximum and then mix.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then you know what I'm saying, the Henny guys will, uh, bless you with a respawn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The pacing, man. You got to... Slow it down. If any, like even when I do the bottle, I count the rotations. Like if we in the car, we passing around the bottle, I'll count that shit. Just to make sure like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't get too wasted cause all it's gonna take is like the ugly one that don't normally do this or the fine one that don't know she fine to just wanna go home and your night is ruined. Exactly. One friend isn't having a good time, it's over. As soon as that bitch wanna go home, it's a wrap. You got to keep...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, well, I just want to stop you with the way that you phrased it, because this is, I see this as a thing, and that's like people's subconscious reaching out. He didn't have me in anything. I had myself in that costume.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How I became friends with Drake originally, it literally was random.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know how you can click on niggas Instagram story and you just replying at the top?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it was one with pink diamonds, pinky yellow, my favorite color. I'm like, hey, that's hard. And he's like, yeah it is, huh? And I was like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And at first I didn't realize I was talking to Drake. I'm like, yeah man, that shit is clean. And then I'm like, oh shit. This is Drake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know nobody that knows him. It's Drake, the biggest fucking rapper in the world. And uhm, we got to talking and he was just like, yo man, I love you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like, I love you and like all of this shit that you've been doing. I think you fucking hard. I think you funny as fuck. I think you a great rapper. You remind me of this, uh, of this guy from this Netflix documentary called Wild Country.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I don't know if you've seen it, but it's about like the sauciest, most intelligent, most articulate, uh, most ethereal cult leader.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he had tens of thousands of people in this full community and they started a city that got into legislation and he like was trying to make it a utopia.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, cause I had just watched the documentary. Me, uh, uh, Dahomey Benji put me onto it to watch it and me and Juice got obsessed with it immediately. Really? Jig Juice, my little brother, uh, West Oakland, also an amazing rapper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He know everything. Sometimes he would go into the baguan rest like Odin, like Thor's dad, to Odin's sleep and he just wouldn't talk for three months to nobody. He only pull up in the Rolls Royce, big minx, big ass Chanel glasses and just walk everywhere barefooted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was like, that's crazy you say that. I love that documentary. He was like, nah man, you like my spirit animal. And I was like, Drake just told me I'm a spirit animal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I knew if I would run into Drake randomly, he wouldn't know who I was. I mean, he would know who I was. I met Beyonce and she had no idea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it was, I don't want to talk about that event because that's like some, it was some private stuff on like behalf of somebody else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, he was there. And it was something that I was happy to be invited to.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be in that space and that happiness and that moment was wild, but I can't go into detail of that. Back to Drake, we just started DMing and shit and then I get, I make s-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Me and my producer James Delgado, who like, I was starting to build the sound wave at the time, who like does most of all my shit now. Probably one of the hardest niggas ever. We made this song called Red Flags and I was like, god damn it, I'ma send it to Drake. Fuck. Fuck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and I was just like, fuck. And then he responded, and he was like, yo, red flags is fire.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've been listening on the way to the studio like two nights in a row.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Didn't tell him it had an open verse, nothing. I just left it at that because I didn't want it to seem like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like super trying to like use him, you know what I'm saying? I just wanted to know what he felt about it because I felt like it was a song that he would like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that remained true because he just dropped us some money on the grave and the beat sounds like red flags. So I knew I was in a good pocket when I sent him that, like, uh, I don't, I don't know. Call it like a budding A&R year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I just felt like, man, this was it. I mean, not even that. That's giving myself too much credit, cause I be picking weird songs to put people on. But uhm, I was just happy that he fucked with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we just moved on from there. It was, he was like, uh, he was finna shoot a video for, uh, I was gonna be on Scorpion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he asked me to send him something, and I sent it to him, but it was too late. Scorpion would drop Friday, I sent to him on Wednesday because he asked me Tuesday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I went to the studio the next day, recorded it. It just couldn't paper it in time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we didn't, I didn't know, my management didn't know, and it was like a weird thing. It was like a, shit are we on the album or not? And in my mind I was. And you don't want to just ask over and over, right? Yeaah. So I was like, fuck it. But in my mind I was, cause he wasn't telling me I wasn't, and the last time I checked in I was. Right. So I'm like, pssh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup, and I was, and I didn't know what was going on. I didn't like, and then I hit him up about it and he was like, y'all man, I mean, obviously I've been dealing with the rollout stuff and I hadn't dropped that, uh, actual thing yet. Like I dropped a project, Skinboy Color, but,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was like my first project and we was like learning the ropes and my manager was paying for everything cause we didn't have like a budget or none of that type of shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he was just like, yo, my bad man, we just couldn't paper it in time. Like, I wanted to get it, but like, the label just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Push back, he like explained the whole thing to me and I was like, damn man, thank you for that. So I was kinda bummed out and I like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was emo for like two, three days and my manager was like, well fuck it. And he spun it to get me like back in good spirits. And I never broke my bridge with Drake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You start coming out here and throwing parties and shit, inviting me, I start pulling up and we just became friends.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When the time is right, he gon' give it to me and whatever that is. I don't know if, whether if he just like little brawn me or trying to do whatever, it don't matter to me because like, I never reached out to like, sign the OVO or like, you know. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Put myself in the position which is me and amazing management working our wiggle.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was a party in San Francisco, and they needed Drake to pull up. They needed Drake to pull up. Yeaah, they wanted to book him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was originally told it was like a small thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like it was, uh, just gonna be like a small room and the bag was amazing and he was on this, on this like scorpion tour run. So I was, and he was like, uh, yea nah, should I pull up? I'm like yea nah, pull up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, but if you do, I need a certain cut from this because it's an amazing amount of money. And pssh. I was selling tables for like 20, 30 bands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Definitely not what he thought it was gonna be. What, it just wasn't totally lit?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh no, it was ridiculously lit. It was the only Drake party he had agreed to do in a separate city outside of his own private parties on the whole Scorpion tour.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's what that was. I mean, but we were still, he didn't mind it. Okay, well that's good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was actually his idea for me to tell people. Ah. Cause he was like, damn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You finesse me, you need to tell people that. Right. Cause Drake don't get finesse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And luckily it wasn't a sheisty finesse so I didn't like burn the bridge. Right. But it was Drake's idea for me to like tell people so I was like alright nigga, let's make a video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you win you gotta tell everybody to go watch my new video for my song Flossing and it's the best video of the year. Okay. He said, done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But your sign has to say, Kawhi and Drake beat the Bay. I said, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only if telling everybody to go watch my video consists of a IG post, a story post, and a tweet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He a normal nigga when it come to that aspect. He on his own phone, like answering his own DMs. He just can't sort through like the hundreds, thousands of fans shit, but if he know you...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just cause like, people send me nudes all the time and that's, and I feel like that's a break of uh, confidentiality and agreement and consent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who only was supposed to send stuff to me. Well that's interesting. I feel like legally that also counts as, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The revenge porn thing, like when you leak people's nudes out of spite or like- Right. Unbeknownst to that party.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where women of all shapes and sizes come in, pull out their titties and I praise them, let them know what I like about them, and then I move on to the next person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I used to be in the task force, you know what I'm saying?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Protecting Lil B at all times in every way, shape, or form. But now, as the lead, as a Farragamo Falcon leader of the Armani Army, with my fan base is, I need protection myself. So I gotta oversee my own production and, uhm, tap in with the Armani Army and see what they're doing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I had to step back from being a member of the task force in order to, uhm, cultivate the arm money on me to grow into something bigger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I live a bass mentality too. I freestyle all my music for the most part. I'm top lining melodies. I just happen to be hella good at it so people don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, I, I had no idea that he was gonna post it. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the back, it was in the back of everybody's mind, but in my mind, I just wanted to like, let him know that I'm a man of my word and like, I took his end of the bet serious. Like, I would expect him to fucking promo my shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because he lost, so like, I gotta do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, and I was like, if I lose, I'll fly to the bay tomorrow and get it done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was really waiting. And I was, and then I finally went to the bridge and I was like, man, don't ever say I don't keep my word. And then he flexed on me. Look, he's like, uh, why the shit taking so long? Download LOL. I'm on the plane. Meaning he's on his plane. And then he called me and laughed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought I'd get shit for free. Like uh, select alcohol things who I love to drink.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Couldn't sand it, couldn't sand it, then I had like nine on Friday. I seen that ascent.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're not connected to wifi. Obviously he had landed. And he didn't even respond in a text message. He just went on Instagram and commented.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On my video, and then it posted on his in like the same two minutes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I text him like, man, you didn't even have to post it. I didn't expect that. And then, it was just love.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Literally, Air Drake, the plane was doing laps around the city of Toronto, meaning they, they got cleared. Right. For all that airspace. Wow. Yesterday for like hours. That's crazy. What? You know how much it costs to fuel a 747?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was thinking like 50, but yeah, whatever. Sometimes. Thousands. Yes. To just fly in circles, my nigga.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they now practice at the OVO, uh, athletics facility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's my nigga, man. Shout out to Drake. I'm like the only nigga from the Bay who he done did some shit with.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he didn't even have to shout it out. He was like, man, everybody go watch Floss and the shit is actually hard. Like, I know this nigga in the dinosaurs costume or whatever. We potters fucked that shit. Go watch the video. And I was like, what? Scroll down his Instagram since he started it. You can't see a post like that ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ever. Super rare. And I got a lot of love for him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh man, I finessed Chance the Rapper. Really? For a feature. How? I tweeted him. Uh huh. And I said, let me finesse you for some music.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even, oh no, cause when we first applied for it, uh, they wasn't verifying people at the time. Because all that alt-right shit was happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Riley Rea- I heard a song with Riley Rea rapping.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] B'Nasty actually performed at one of the Project X parties, like years, years ago. I'm cool with Debbie and, uh, Craig Sean's a homie, great person. Right. I love them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lil Debbie always been hella fucking fine to me. So I was like, I'm fucking with this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Lil Debbie, I found myself on her Instagram the other day, she's still going. Yea, nah, she's doing her thing. She's still doing her thing. Uh, shout out Lil Debbie, shout out Crayshon. I don't know where Vy Nasty at. Vy Nasty. But like, uh, I never cared about that shit. In the Bay, and I will say this, cause I don't want to seem insensitive to my people who like know me on Twitter cause I really do champion for like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] White people not saying nigga. But in the Bay, it's harder to approach because it's such a mixing pot and we always broke. We always broke. Literally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got Cambodian and Asian and like just other POC.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I never stopped him. I never even think that it was wrong. I was just, I was just raised by my parents and even my Filipino grandma.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who was just like, yea, if a white person says that it's a problem, hit them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or tell an adult who can hit them. It was always like we need to be physical. So you knew it was a serious thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the importance of, uh, combating, it was always physical. Cause West Oakland is-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My grandma used to date Huey P. Minutin. Wow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like, on my end, it was always radical, uh, protection.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of blackness. Okay. That's where I come from. So, to combat that mentally,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was raised around all these other races and they were just as broke as me. We shoppin', we sharein' food, we- we-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Putting two dollars together so we could put the cheese on the Doritos.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the corner store, you know what I'm sayin'? Like, I get the motherfuckin', uh, the Arizona, you get the honey bun, we microwave that shit, split it in half type shit. Like, just like, broke kid shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't compare it to the hardships of the world. It's so easy to get encapsulated in, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The hood that you know, and if the hood that you know is recognizing that, uh, as something that's okay, then why would you disagree?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any type of classes on uh, current events?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're not clued into what people are getting offended by on the internet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't want to say oversensitive because I do feel like the approach on masculinity and toxic masculinity in that case is a good revamp.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of the current mentality in like the black community and the culture in general, but they don't know that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's the direct shit? Like niggas is dying. That's when I wash a nude cause my niggas is dying. And other than that nigga, I'm in the field.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And my daddy was letting the white bitch say nigga because she just as broke as us and her mama was like buying crack from us, you know what I'm saying, or her daddy was selling it with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's all just mud talk. So when it comes to specifics like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't really be nitpicky. It would, it's just something that I need to maybe have a talk with somebody else or approach it because like now, ooh, I just bit that. Can I get a napkin?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you. Uh, I just don't like to be around no type of filth, especially in this type of environment.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so it get tricky with that sort of shit. And I'm learning how to navigate that. And maybe I need to talk with people to better educate myself to how to, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Approach that when I come around it. But as of now, when it comes to people from the Bay who I know specifically was for some struggle, I still don't know how to approach it, but I'm learning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ain't perfect, I'm hella smart, you know what I'm sayin'? I'm actually probably one of the smartest things ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nuh-uh. I'm flossing like Mike Jones. And Big Mo flossing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Slim Tug. Lil Flip tried to do it after Slim Tug didn't work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Slim Thug was the first one and Lil Flip tried to imitate his. Lil Flip was like, being hella combative.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, Cardi definitely did it before me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got another angle, hold on, you finna see nigga because I'm literally getting my dick sucked in a parking lot downtown LA and I'm right in front of Bank of America chasing all the things that the scam gods, uh, would consider homage. Wow. That's why you chose that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, I mean, it's only right. It's only right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's only right. Damn, do I? Where's this video at?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me find this shit, hold on, because... ain't nobody did this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yea, Cardi did it, uh, yeaah. I can't take away from that, but.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm the only person ever in the history of rap that got his dick sucked in a music video. Actually, by two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so first of all, how this shit even worked was we shot it in a random parking lot and there was people in that parking lot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Somebody sent me the porn hub link, and Hakeem originally tweeted it out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My homie and my manager and we do stuff like that. So I'm trying to figure out where the fuck this red...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, nah, because, oh, I mean, I did put it on Twitter, but I don't feel like looking through. No, that'll take forever. It'll take forever. I was just thinking about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I support her in all her endeavors. She actually wanted to pull up today, but, uh, something happened in her family that she had to take care of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An anime mecha is probably one of the most famous ones outside of like, Evangelion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I was gonna have her bring something, we was gonna build something live, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you want OnlyFans or Micam or whatever she's on, you can just follow her on Instagram. Go ahead and support her. Shout out to all my sex workers, I support y'all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then the other girl is the homegirl Tasia and she was just like, I'm down to fuck with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and it's so crazy because I had to warm up. I'd never done porn. I obviously fucked a lot of bitches and I'm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tweeted out, I wanna get my dick sucked in a music video. Right. I need a lady to do it in a Los Angeles area.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Three hours, four hours passed, we had like 150 submissions and I was just going through it with me and my niggas like, hey, who should suck my dick in this video? I was trying to pick one girl and then I narrowed it down to three. Unfortunately, the third girl couldn't arrive due to transportation issues and I had already ubered the other two girls from so far.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As soon as they came, uh, they signed the waivers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that's a good idea. Yeah, they signed the waivers and we moved forward. Dave was ready to suck dick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was kind of, it was, it was kind of awkward at first and then like we warmed up throughout shooting the other scenes and you know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was beautiful. Nikki was doing her thing, Teja was shy at first, and then she kinda dove in, started getting the balls, like, ah, ah, ah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I took him off. I took him off. I had a one of a kind outfit. I had a one of a kind outfit from Nahomi. Sean, he owns a brand called Flowers. And that's who that whole outfit was by. And he had no idea I was finna do some out of pocket shit like that. He probably wouldn't have proved it cause he's a more conserved guy and he's got a fiance or girlfriend. I don't know how far they, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Their legal commitment is what they love, but they're together. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From a brand called Flowers, I'm still down with him. He'll still let me pull stuff for other music videos. Very talented dude. I met him through my cousin Christian who like, has always been helping me creatively.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's how that shit worked out, and it was amazing. First, you know they was sucking a nigga and I was on gummy worm for a while, then I upgraded to sour gummy worm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we got from sour gummy worm to stale gummy worm. And then I was just full of- Like a real snake. Yeah, I was not even snake, man. I was got, I was fucking Statue of Liberty. The original one, the black one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, I know white news is that's like 18 and they look 60 years old already.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you don't look, you don't look hella old. You're just a big nigga.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I can understand why mentally deficient members of the white race end up hating.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People of color. Cause there's so many benefits that they don't have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Naturally. So subconsciously, they hate that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imbued in hate comes from either, uhm, insecurity or, uh, ignorance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Fight or flight is a genetic response imbued in DNA. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course when people are faced with something that is completely different.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The antithesis of anything that is their reality, I can see why it could be combative, but it's up to you as a human.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And as somebody who is, uh, possible of greater cognitive thought than just animalistic impulses to move beyond that and say, well, why? Why?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everybody on the news till this day is talking about the fucking constitution and all these things that like white niggas who didn't even have dentists made. And that's what this whole country is based on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like it's this, that's why they say the system is set up to fail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Regardless if it's set up for black people to fail or other people to fail, it's set up for really everybody to fail.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The only people who managed to remain afloat is white people because they had the biggest head start. But either way, it's a stupid system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's just how I feel about everything. So when I meet people who are blatantly racist, I gotta approach them with an understanding that they are mentally inferior or raised in a way where they don't know anything else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ignorance is not something that I'm willing to forgive but it's something that I'm willing to understand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nah, it's, uh, I'm good at manipulation, cause I come from pimping.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The most thing that I, the most important thing that I ever learned in pimping.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and just general manipulation in the human psyche is most people are ready to fold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Especially from a mental standpoint, they don't know how to fight, so they'll fly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if you put somebody in a lesser pocket, most of the time, they'll get in that pocket.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So with people who are less knowledgeable,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of that type of thing when it comes to race relations and how they should be dealing with other genuine humans and life, if you really approach them in that way to where you just know that you are superior in your level of thought, they will fold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's how you stop all the chatter when you leave because you're able-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They'll literally sound dumb as fuck if they bring it up again after you sunned them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the most player way. If I be fucking Farrakhan, and like on the, you know what I'm sayin', then it'll come off too intellectual or too pompous.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if I play the player role and let you know like, nah, you shouldn't feel like that because that's actually dumb. And then let me tell you why it's dumb, but like I'm still your partner.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause I'm trying to figure it out and I know you human and I'm human. But that's dumb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I'm saying? It's almost like talking to a child. Yeah. And that's how I approach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People with, uh, racist habits, racist ideals, or things that they may be ignorant of that they don't know is that. Because once you son somebody, they got no choice but to be a teenager and do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I'ma go up to that 4,000 on everything. If you like what I'm talking about and you like everything, I'm dropping an album sometime in the late summer. I don't got the date yet, but it's called Dior Deposits. I got all your favorites. I got all the rap legends on there, except for Drake maybe. But uhm, I've, who you want? I got Chance the Rapper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] J. Cole. Uh, J. Cole is the- that's alleged.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So by the time my album comes out, I'll be on both of those. Really? Yea. I'm on Dreamville album multiple times. That's gotta be our next-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ay, I mean, look, by the time we have another interview, I'ma be on so many people's albums, cause nobody on here knows.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like what I'm actually doing, like I'm on everybody's album cause I'm hella fucking good. Jid, Boz, Ari Lennox's next project, hopefully. Buddy, me and him work all the time. We just do some fire shit over some Pharrell beats.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Homies back from the bay, like, G-Eazy, working with Kehlani now, that's, that's like the little sis, La U.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We, Kehlani, like, you know what I'm saying, she had a little history with my little brother and that's how we got close.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But more importantly, I just used to fuck all the bitches from Berkeley High.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause that's where all the bad bitches is. If you from the Bay, you know all the bad bitches at Berkeley High. Like the rich hoes at Skyline, bad ones at Berkeley High. And that's how we got cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aside from that, I love her, I love her daughter, I love everything that she been through, cause Kehlani really from the mud like me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Making music with her, like, I'm literally, like, everybody on the album. I got some with Bryson Tiller, got some with Wale and the City Girls on his album. We did some shit with D.A., got that dope on his shit. Uhm, on my shit. Man, who am I missing? Oh, Max O'Creams on my shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, I got Max on my shit, uhm, we got some shit with Key in the air. Like, I'm just-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got like six bitches in the bathtub. I bounced out completely naked at one point. It's fun. It's fun. I do wild shit cause I like that type of shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You talking to the nigga that will do. I know. I'll do it. It's just, it's just about the song.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can do part two. This could just be the introduction. I've been waiting to do this, but I know like the timing was always weird, but it's a good time now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then people could really get acquainted with me as an artist and be like, oh man, that shit is hard as opposed to me just like going viral and then popping up here because I go viral by accident.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could make a video about like socks and sandals, which I kinda like brummit. And then, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, nah, I bring you a sample of mines and you can see they hella clean.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean honestly, Gucci slides are pretty uncomfortable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Ferragamo, all of that shit. I am the Ferragamo Falcon. Shout out to Ferragamo even though I really haven't tapped in with him in a while.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sander Boys is just comfortable. And after they like BBC collab, I'm like, I'm tapping in. They tapped in with me, now we doing a collab. It's gonna be fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last time I was here, I facetimed Soulja Boy. Right? Did you see that? Really? Yea, last time, y'all interviewed a group of bitches.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before y'all had some bitches in here, like three bitches. They're not artists. The blackout girl.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Get in contact with Soulja, I'ma give him a hoodie, send it to his estate, so I can be waiting on him, cause he want, this is my hoodie and my durag, and Soulja Boy has put in a request for everything. That's actually so tragic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love Soulja Boy and what was saucy about it is, Soulja Boy really scammed us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the cleanest shit ever. That's the cleanest shit ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that's when, ay, and not, he DM'd me, he like, like shit, then he DM'd me, it was like, huh, big Gucci soldier, fucks with you, is all like, Big Phenom, fucks with you, nigga, let's work.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the current climate today, I would refrain from it unless a girl fully expressed her sober consent that this is what she wanted. I would refrain from it because the environment is too shaky and uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was just a different time. So back then, hell yeaah, we used to run girls. We had girls who were like, wanting to do it and just playing it ahead of time. Like, yo, this is my off day, let's all turn up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To basically gentrification in West Oakland. It's my grandma's house. And that's where a lot of this shit was going on with like, the people that...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You hear about, like I met Kailani at that house. That's where she came to come tap in with me. I met Sweetie at that house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I am Sue Cooljohn, all the like, the Bay factors been through that house. Like, if Dage, one of the biggest DJs and like, tastemakers in the Bay came through, and he was there on the last day, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's something that's still heavy to me, so I don't want to talk about it too much. But like, if y'all ever see me with a face tat, I didn't do it for clout, I did it for love, and it's probably the only thing I ever get on my face really small.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, I send J. Cole music all the time and he'll send me feedback like, in three minutes. Really?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I sw- I kid you not. That's lit. I approve it right now if you want me to call to bluff. I'll let you- I'll believe you. Yea, like that's my guy. So, shout out J. Cole. Just know, I'mma use you for clout on the next one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Set your heading for 220. But there are boats in the way! I don't care what's in the way! Crawl through them!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're definitely going to make s'mores with Jonah Hill. So, let's go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm thinking about joining their league. Their ranks. Might just brag about Atlanta and just fucking date fucking Mark Summers from Double Dare or something. How long you had this later? A while. You've-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was basically just like a clout mountain. It was just like a mountain of clout where you just kinda, Kim, you're disgusting, uhm, where you just had to just


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Push through all these people and these barriers to get through and then finally when you get to the top, you get to stand next to Kanye and the speakers were like right next to our fucking heads so you could barely hear it. And it was still tight though, like I honestly, we were like fighting through the mobs of people, like for the purpose of filming slash like whatever the fuck else you're going to do, but it was cool. We just like filmed everything and we.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know how it looks, but I had nothing to do with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, I was just asking him about the girl. That's all. When I mentioned her being dead, he freaked out. I figured someone had told him. How was I supposed to know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right? I know where he is. My guy says he's holed up at the trip trap. We can go over there right now. The both of us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Beauty! Ah shit. Beast? Big B? How could you do this to me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What the fuck is wrong with you? She's my wife!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know how this goes, the first thing in a visit. You say, how do you do? How do you do? What are you doing here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll snip to the chase for all sakes. A little bird told us that you're fit to go after Crane. And you see, we have an interest in that particular boy. So you leave Crane alone, and we'll leave you alone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, not later. Later's too late.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He hasn't exactly been a good sport about this. Not making our lives any easier.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The man said he'd take care of it. So why don't you take the hint and get out?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And what about your history? All you've done to this fucking town! What do you mean there's no evidence?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I told you, I'm tired of sitting around. I'm not going to be an errand girl for Crane anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We already looked for the key, remember? I don't know where it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What concerns me is you traipsing through possible evidence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Whatever it is, Greenleaf, whatever it is that's keeping you from saying something, you have to forget it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, you know what I think? I think we've been more than patient with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know what this is. I've seen it before. It is not love.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He embezzled millions from Fabletown Bigby. That's what I have to care about. And that's enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just, take him, okay? Take Crane.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have very good reasons for asking you to do that. She was working with Crane and the Crooked Man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Besides, Crane was still deputy mayor when that happened. Right before you decided to kidnap him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is John Conrad the greatest man I ever served with? Well, I dunno.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was this one time in Kabul when he dragged my bleeding carcass half a mile to an evac chopper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So maybe I'm biased. But the facts don't lie. The man's a fucking hero.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, Conrad was leading the damn 33rd out of Afghanistan. Instead of coming home, he volunteered his entire battalion to help with the evac. That all you did was send a check. Rumor is Conrad was ordered to abandon the city. He defied that order, and the 33rd stood with him. Now the official story's still hazy, but what happened next? All we know for sure is that the storms got worse. Much worse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last thing we heard out of Dubai was that Conrad was leading a caravan of survivors out of the city.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Conrad's still alive. I think he is. I know he'd agree with me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All men dream, but not equally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those who dream by night, in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible. This I did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pulled a couple of those punches, Charlie. What do you mean, uh-huh? They touched ya. You head-butted me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, well, Charlie seemed to enjoy himself a little bit too much for my taste. My ears are still ringing. Oh, for God's sake.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you're sure they didn't see you trailing them? Not a chance. So, which door's scary poppin's hiding behind?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sully. Stand right there. You too. Like there and there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Charlie, who the hell are we dealing with here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nicely done, boys. Come on. They must have gone through here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Looks like Tudor. 16th century.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not just any book, Wise S. Belong to T.E. Lawrence. You know, Lawrence of Arabia. Yes, yes, yes, I know who he is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was mailed from Dorset on the day of his motorcycle accident. May 13th, 1935.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They must have killed him once they got their hands on it. They? Yea, they, they, them, whoever these people are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Huh. What is it? Uh, it's... long hidden.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No. No, it's gotta be here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drake didn't screw around in the East Indies for six months. He sailed straight through and headed to Arabia. Right. But here's where it gets interesting. You see this, Mark? This is John Dee's signature.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dean Elizabeth. And Walsingham. Great, but what for? Well, that's the million dollar question, isn't it? And this is where T.E. Lawrence comes in. See, before Lawrence became Lawrence of Arabia- Great film. He was an archaeologist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And even when he was just a kid, he was obsessed with history. Everything to do with knights and the crusades.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It would be to search for this place he called the Atlantis of the Sands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Drake only had half the clues. Lawrence only had half. We have both. And Marlowe has nothing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see these symbols here? Yeaah. Looks like Sabine's script.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, the Crusaders were searching for the same lost city a thousand years ago. But out of all the sites Lawrence documented, only two are marked with these symbols. One in Syria, the other in France.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, you two are going to Syria. We're heading to France. Look, we tracked down these clues. We find Lawrence's lost city. I'm sure of it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How are we going to get across 600 miles of impossible wasteland? It's in the middle of the desert. So technically...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sully. Sully, this is John Dee's lab. All the way out here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In France? Well, he must have traced the clues back to the Crusades, just like Lawrence did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So be in script again. But what are these symbols? Looks like he was trying to work something out. There's some sort of message written here in a Naki script.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The altar guards the entrance to the underworld. Huh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is it. Here, hold this way. Sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, some sort of amulet. Something written here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Could be the name of a city?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh no. What? Cutter and Chloe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This place is crawling with agents. Chloe and Cutter could be in real trouble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're rescuing you? From what? We thought you were captured. Oh, worse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, Talbot ambushed us at the chateau. It was a trap. Yeah, we figured they must have followed you too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We should be able to find our way into the crypts with this clue. The entrance has gotta be hidden here someplace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So we just need to make our way- Get down!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You what? We can't quit now. Yeah, not when we're so close. Come on, we'll find a way around him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, but the right spot for what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well the crusaders would have hidden the entrance to the crypt somewhere in plain sight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, look. The same symbol appears on Drake's map. Right next to this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, now let's see if we can find that entrance. Should be directly below the North Star.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, it certainly looks that way. Let me see the scope again. Yeah, sure. Thanks. Hey. Here's that symbol again. Yep, maybe it's not in the sky this time, but down below somewhere. Wait. Yeah, there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, let's get over there and check it out. Yeah, we'll meet up with Sully and Chloe on that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, still in one piece anyway. Come on, I think we're onto something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good to see you're alright. You too. There's the wall. Alright, the crypt entrance should be here someplace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You alright? Take it easy. Take it easy, Charlie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, we're looking for a knight's tomb. Just like we found in France.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, about that, uh, Talbot has it. What? Yeah, I told you how he ambushed us at the chateau. That's when he took it. Well, why did we even bother then? Hold on. Give me a little credit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And with the inscription complete, we know exactly where to go in Yama. Thank you very much.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, we gotta find a quick way in. No hassles. Think I might know someone we could call?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, it's a glamorous life. Come on, admit it. You love all this as much as I do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This city. No, no, no, it's in the middle of the Rubalcali Desert.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These holes must be important. Guess we just have to find the right one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, you think you could remember this? Oh, yeah, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Skip the mind games. You don't know me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, but we have to do this quietly. They catch us sneaking onto that plane, we're dead.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, come on, Nate. Okay, there's... There's a rhino. There's a big dipper in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, no, no. Don't shoot me. Please don't shoot me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god. Wow. Victor Sullivan. Welcome to Uvar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Salim told me that Aram was cursed when Solomon imprisoned the evil spirits of the jinn inside a vessel of brass and then cast it into the depths of the city. A genie in a bottle. I know, it sounds pretty crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Wasn't treasure they were after. It was power. Only once Drake realized what he'd been sent for, he abandoned the mission. He lied to the Queen, told her he didn't find anything, and then hid all traces of his voyage. Rewrote history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We got an open path straight to Ghoul. What about the civilians? We gotta save them. Look, I know it sucks, but Ghoul's vital to our mission. The civies aren't. Our mission is to rescue people. Please, Captain, we need Ghoul. Let me take the shot. We can't let these people die, Walker. You know it's the right call.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once upon a time. Does that help?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Of course you do. I don't have answers. You'll have to find those yourself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean can't. These lips are sealed, discretion is our guarantee.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Everyone who spoke should really be present for this part. She's kind of distraught. You're not leaving yet are you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, uhm, are you okay? You didn't look good last night. I wasn't sure you'd be, you know, around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I mean is I don't want to waste your time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wouldn't have had to make that appointment with you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes, we have to find our way through life on our own, grasping and fumbling in the dark.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I used to have friends to help me find my way. But now, they're gone. And I don't know what to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sorry if I'm wasting your time. I thought I knew how to say it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listen, Sheriff. Can you keep this conversation between us? I could be in a lot of... trouble.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thank you for listening, Sheriff. You should go onto your next business. I don't think you'll be wasting your time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Georgie would have never done anything without his say so. Ever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, yeah, I guess I am. It's not easy to forget. I know it seems like I should be able to. It's just...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Listen, I- I came here because I have to tell you something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then Faith decided to get some leverage. She stole a picture of Crane and Lily together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The minute Faith stole that photo, we had dirt on one of the crooked man's allies. If he found out, I-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had no choice. You have to understand.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Georgie promised he'd smooth things over with the crooked man. But then, oh god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What does it matter? I know the crooked man did it. So what if it wasn't the whole truth?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I tried to warn Lily, but she wasn't with her scheduled appointment. So I did the only thing I could do. I, I left Faith's head at your doorstep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I cut my leg trying to get over the fence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just pointed you in the right direction. People like us get forgotten all the time. The crooked man was counting on that. When we suffer, we do it in silence and the world likes it that way. We just fade like we never existed. I couldn't watch that happen to Faith or Lily. Nobody cares about us. Not really.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is. You've just never seen it before. But now you have. You'll make things right. You and Snow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know it might feel that way, but they need you, Bigby. Both of you. You two make a good team. The way you look out for each other. And look out for us. We don't see that a lot these days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Without you, none of this would have happened. You listened when no one else would.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You protected your friends, no matter the cost. And you brought justice to this town. Finally.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because you brought the crooked man in, everyone saw who he really was. So from where I'm standing, you did the right thing. You've been given this job for a reason.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You've changed this place. For better or worse, Fable Town wouldn't be the same without you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good afternoon folks. We're going to start in about two or three minutes time. Very glad to have you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We just want to know, where does it hurt? And we'll try and do the best we can for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, here we are on a Monday. J is out, Earl is in, G Bush is here as always. We got Mike, Steve and Anthony behind the glass today. You guys gotta get Steve on your behind the glass podcast. I think that would be appropriate. That would be hilarious. For him to make an appearance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was the most aggressive move by Steve in a year and a half on the show. He aggressively went after that mic right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. Alright, we got a lot to get into today, guys. The Browns played their second preseason game last week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Browns are a one and a half point underdog. They opened as a three and a half point underdog.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And obviously Joe Burrow's status still up in the air, although he is expected to play. We're going to talk about the kicking situation, which I think we're all antsy about. We're going to talk about Kyle Brandt's comments last week about covering Deshaun Watson. Of course we'll get to the WKYC softball game that some of us participated in yesterday.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta say, I'm offended that Earl and Mike didn't invite me to the Guardians game. I'm offended that Earl didn't invite me to a fish fry. I get invited to nothing here. I had to find out about the softball game by myself. I guess nobody wants me around, Gene. I don't know what's happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, by the way, I went to, Dustin used to bust my balls all the time on, on the fan about how I would say I'm gonna go to high school football and I don't really go and I've gone to a couple games over the years. But I'm now friendly with the offensive coordinator.

[Assistant] So I'm fully in. You're fully in the cocaine. And he, so they, so I went to the first home game, we couldn't get, uh, my in-laws were leaving the next morning, so we went out for dinner, but I went to the second half with my son, and they won 55 to 40 or something like, I don't remember the exact, I think it was 55.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they put up a ton of points. There, so, Rocky River has traditionally been a team that was, is like a traditional offense, running the ball, you know, old school kind of, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, high school football offense. But they've totally, they've totally changed this year because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're, they're not very deep on the offensive. They really only have like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. I don't even know if they have five solid options. Two that are possible. Yeaah, yeaah, yeaah. And, but, they've got a very smart athletic quarterback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they got a bunch of guys who can catch the ball. So they're running a lot of five wides, some four wides with, with one run. They got, they're running back, did a nice job. I think he had three touchdowns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, DeMarco, I think is his last name. But, uh, the kids played really well. Now, I don't know how good the team name is. It's from Painesville. It's a school name Harvey. So I don't know how good they are. I'm not sure if they're... I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But anyway, so, they got their first victory. It was weird though, cause I got there at halftime and it was packed. And then the band, Rocky Rivers got this huge band, and then the band was done and like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, high school football is so big and obviously in northeast Ohio. Was a lot of people there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was until halftime, it was pretty crowded and then it like emptied out a little bit. We were like, we gotta go. Yeaah, it was enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He says 25 plays, but we don't know. He's not going to be stuck at that exact amount. I think, you know, I've never been a big, you have to play guys in preseason, but in the last year, I guess, I'm sick of this being scared to get guys hurt. Now, the guy, here's a mistake that guys that I think people make.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sean Watson doesn't need to play to prove something to us. That's meaningless. We're not making decisions for the Browns. He needs to play to prove something to himself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because it, it, it appears to me that he doesn't seem like he's ready. That he feels, now again, I don't know, I'm not in Deshaun Watson's head, but that's my impression of the situation. If Deshaun Watson felt like he was 100% ready, I don't think he'd be playing this game. At all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But clearly he doesn't, and clearly Stefanski doesn't. So, he needs to play enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That he's comfortable, you know, if that's possible, that he's comfortable and ready to go week one. And I don't think he has to this point, G.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You've got one of if not the best coaches in the NFL in Kansas City. You've got the best quarterback who just won a Super Bowl, who's won two Super Bowls already in 10 seconds in the league. If he's playing more in the last preseason game,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then Deshaun Watson, who's barely played the last two years, with a coach that's proven nothing, that's a problem to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The bottom line is, in any kind of practice, scrimmage, whatever,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That every play there's a possibility he's going to take a hit that ends his career. I know that's extreme, but to some degree that's what a quarterback has to deal with mentally when he's on the football field. And that doesn't exist in practice. And so it's not the same. It's not, not that you can't get something. I talked on my podcast last week about, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The whole preseason, whether it's, you know, OTAs, minicams, training camp, preseason games, it's all part of one giant puzzle, right? We, as the public, only see


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The games, pretty much, unless you go to practice. But we don't see the film study, we don't see most of the stuff that's part of the puzzle. And you, and, and for, so this part of the puzzle though, the scrimmages, these things are all important.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In terms of the games, there's nothing else that can simulate a game. Nothing. For a quarterback who knows, you know, at least, at least a wide receiver maybe is gonna get hit in practice. Probably not like a game, but you might get, but a quarterback's not getting hit. They're very careful about that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It really is because, and you think about it, we talk about Rust with Deshaun Watson, which he showed. But Rust is really bad timing. Yes. Right? And Deshaun Watson had no timing. His timing was completely off last year. Yep.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, I guess it's harder to bring that back than maybe we, than clearly we all thought. Because none of us thought he would have the rust he had last year. And he still has not played much for two years. So play him in this freaking game a lot. I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Joe Barrow's been running for his life for two years. That's true. Good quarterbacks can overcome that. Good quarterbacks can overcome an offensive line and the Browns have a much better offensive line than the Bengals did. Bengals has gotten better. But still, like the good quarterbacks can deal with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're right, it does seem like there's a lack of effort at times, but G is still right. Even though he blocked for those guys in college, he has not been blocking for a mobile quarterback in the NFL, and he played right tackle in college.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that does make a difference, the little, you know, it's nuance.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, it makes a difference. And, and, uh, you know, in the NFL now though, as an offensive lineman, most quarterbacks now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It used to be there was only a few guys. Statues. But now- There's only two- There's only two guys. I'm looking at- How many statues are left?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't ca- Go- Graduating college is a great accomplishment. Actually going to the graduation, who cares? I wouldn't care. But none of the starters played anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just the general sense of guys being given more than they've earned.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Two things. One, I'm done with, uh, Browns fans are champions at making excuses for why their theme sucks. I'm not listening to any excuses, especially about Rust. I don't want to hear about any of that this year. Deshaun Watson gets no pass, he's got to play well. He gets no pass. I gave him a pass for last year, I'm throwing it out. No pass for this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, and I wanna hear about Russ because Joe Burrow's not gonna play the whole preseason. Nope. He's missing the whole preseason. Now, he plays like crap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, and uh, I forgot my second point. So, oh no, no, no. My second point real quick was, I want to see the defense play against Patrick Mahomes. Oh yeaah. And the Chiefs, who do have a proven, excellent offensive line. I wanna, I wanna, they should not be coming out before Patrick Mahomes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nobody. And final, final thing, the Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce Instagram videos are the best.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very good podcast. There was nothing better. I don't watch the whole podcast, but I see some of those clips on Instagram. They're always hilarious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For me it's just Nick Chubb. Yea, for me it's just Nick Chubb too. Alright, Mikey, what do you got?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright Mike, let's keep it moving here. Joel Petonio, uh, kind of a under the radar story over the weekend, has his contract restructured to cap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Browns will save 8 million dollars worth of cap space. Uh, do you guys think this has anything to do with
