smoo: when you really think about it, bro, when you really, really think about it, summer is really overrated, bro. It really is, dog. Unless you got
Big Darrell: I I agree with you on that smoke. That shit.
smoo: unless you got some pens or you got a clique of friends and y'all got a plan, nigga, summer is really overrated, dog.
Big Darrell: But you why though it
Wills On The Tank: that's fair.
Big Darrell: probably was overrated when we was growing up, especially because we were coming in that new phone era, right? But now I imagine all the kids probably got a group, they probably got social medias, everybody got their shit connected now. When we was growing up, we was right on the edge of that, right? so I remember going out some summers, I ain't had no cell phone. You had to wait on the house phone and shit. you know what I'm saying? So it wasn't really
Wills On The Tank: Yeah. Ooh, that's a different era right there.
Big Darrell: like you had my space and shit, but you had to get on the family computer. computer and shit, So
smoo: Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Eric: Yeah, for sure. For sure.
smoo: yeah.
Eric: Hey, but it just depends on
Wills On The Tank: Lama.
Eric: what stage you in though. if you're in high school, then life a little different. But if you're in elementary, then yeah, for sure. but if you're in high school you got a car and you can be mobile and go to parties. High school summers are lit. I don't know.
Big Darrell: And if
Wills On The Tank: Man, we used to go to the wreck the wreck used to be fun.
Big Darrell: you got I bet I bet they even know Lil and though, since they got
Eric: Yeah.
Big Darrell: social media and phones and shit, cause everybody know everybody. even if you ain't even cool with nobody, you gonna know somebody post on their story, we gonna be here or something,
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
smoo: Yeah. I just think, man, I just think it's just it was just a lot more activities when you think about, football, the games, you think about basketball,
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. That makes sense.
smoo: the parties that come with basketball, the rivalries and, stuff like that. School, I think school really is in a way, summers are overrated and school is really underrated.

Big Darrell: I ain't I ain't really socializing, I ain't really meeting people like I would in college and high school. And so that shit is like that shit go unnoticed. And it's
smoo: Yeah.
Big Darrell: like I can see. See why we respect it more than as we were kids growing up in it. Cause it's like when you get an adult, hey, you be on your own for real, for real. Ain't shit. It ain't
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: really shit.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: you be having to go out and socialize and shit. that's it. For real, though, say for instance, everybody move

'Cause me and Bill, we Daryl, you ain't played no football, did you in college did?

Eric: You know

I literally thought that about every athlete. I thought every nigga would understand business. I thought every nigga would understand how to make it out. They scenarios and that's that's not the case. You
3eezy bih: Okay.
smoo: still it's still 1 % of people who understand how to do that. And It goes to your point sports you got to think about it though. bro, if you're not trying to be that nigga, why are you playing? You know what saying? you have to put all your eggs in one basket. Everybody
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, okay.
smoo: in your family, everybody believes that you gonna, like you said, you don't even gotta be that nigga. But nigga, in your hometown, they think you that nigga. They think
3eezy bih: Yeah, no.
smoo: you gonna go be somebody. You know what I'm saying? And then a lot
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
smoo: of times when you come back and you'll be somebody like, what happened? You know what saying?

Wills On The Tank: And what happened to you? Yeah. Yeah. we.
Eric: Yeah.
3eezy bih: true. I ain't gonna say no name. I ain't gonna say
Eric: Hey, that's what.

Big big college, one of the blues and he was just telling me yeah, even though he's still playing professional, even though he he makes it to the NBA, he felt like he disappointed
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.

Wills On The Tank: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
smoo: Yeah,
3eezy bih: And series, Lanny.

3eezy bih: you yeah.
smoo: what saying? And they don't understand that pressure that they really do put on you for real, for real.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah,
Big Darrell: Wanks.
Wills On The Tank: yeah.
Eric: Yeah. But that's a them guys go through a form of grief though.
3eezy bih: Yeah.
Eric: They got that it's it's you grieving a life that you really had and that you thought you were gonna have. And that's
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
Eric: the body doesn't know any difference. It's just like losing a spouse or losing somebody, right? the the the body is just like, yo, what's happening? So a lot of
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
Eric: them guys look like they kinda hit a downward turn after that. And but that's a common thing. It's like, man.
smoo: I don't think you can't be no other way though. If you really think about it, shit, how could it be something different? if you really want something, you know what saying?
Eric: Hey, do y'all ever hear them stories on ESPN and Saturday mornings they have a dude who's like a quarterback but then he's like an engineer or astrophysicist or something? I be like, How
smoo: Mm-hmm.
Eric: is he doing that? what
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
smoo: I think those are special, those are special individuals. that's like,
Eric: what's in existence? Yeah, true, true, but
smoo: my boy right here, my boy right here. Never read the book by the way, but this nigga right here, you know what saying?
Eric: Yeah.
smoo: He, he, he, he, he, the 1 % of the 1%, you
3eezy bih: yeah, I know him. Yeah.
Eric: Yeah. Dude, dude special.
smoo: know what I'm saying? This nigga was a first round draft pick and said, nah, I want to be a neurosurgeon. You know what I'm saying? Never read the book,
3eezy bih: Or is it?
Eric: Well hey what's his name?
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
smoo: but hey, but shout out, shout out to him.
3eezy bih: it's just like Jalen Brown.
Wills On The Tank: But
3eezy bih: It's just like Jalen Brown. he w that one percent that smooth talking about super smart but can do all that. I w I would say this too though, just it's just they just is like who was that Booby Miles. Booby Miles, even though he didn't turn out to be a he was getting locked up and stuff too, but he really had advantage in life about getting hurt earlier than somebody else that thought they were gonna make it. he really like if you look back at
smoo: then got hurt late. Right.
3eezy bih: Yeah, 'cause it's like, damn, well shit, let me I'm eighteen or whatever, holy wool. Shit. All right, well this shit over with.
smoo: Yeah, but see, but you think about booby mouths though, it's still in the way worse because the talent,
3eezy bih: Yeah, he did. no I would
smoo: your mind, you're not even prepared to think about life in a different aspect. You know what saying? your brain is telling me, hey, this is who I'm gonna be. You know
Eric: Sure.
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
smoo: what saying? And before reality,
3eezy bih: Okay, everybody else too.
smoo: you know what saying? and we know individuals like that. You know what saying? this is who I'm gonna be. and Kate, changed the trajectory. You know what saying? you won't even get the proper education. You know what I'm saying? Because everything is catered to you.
3eezy bih: Yeah.
smoo: and then boom, that's.
3eezy bih: Half of it out is coaching. It's it's coaches too.
Wills On The Tank: I can see why it's depressing. It can be yeah.
smoo: So what do you
3eezy bih: It's coaches too. I say it's coaches too, cause I know I'll be like, with my high school kids, they are kinda smart. So someone like, Man, nah, I ain't I'm not going hard cause, see they know they ain't gonna make it, but then I'll be like, nigga, but you still just wanna get better but then back in my head I'm like, shit, I can I fault you? You know what I'm saying? In a way it's like, damn.
smoo: shit, we talk about it all the time on the podcast though, sacrifices.
3eezy bih: There you go.
smoo: what are you gonna sacrifice,
Eric: I think that's instilled in you young though. It's like 'cause I think man, I think I sent the use movie. It was a little kid on the bench, pee we football, pee wee basketball. He just laid out on the bench. Just
smoo: Mm-hmm.
Eric: laying on the bench. Other kids out there playing. Man, do you know what my daddy would have did to me if that would So
Wills On The Tank: he wouldn't have had that. He wouldn't have had that.
Eric: I think I think that's
3eezy bih: We we know it's he will
smoo: What's she?
Wills On The Tank: Ain't no doubt about it, man. Ain't no doubt about it. Hey. Hey man. Look, man.
3eezy bih: No cowboy. I might get old be I might get there investigated for y'all boy. Wait, that nigga wait nigga.
Eric: Yeah. Hey.
smoo: You would have turned into Joe Jackson.
Eric: Well
Wills On The Tank: I'm glad I had a dad that put hands on me for real, bruh.
Eric: Yeah, look. Hey, but I'm just saying though, you know how that's gotta be instilled in you young to wanna excel in everything you do. Or not even
3eezy bih: Yeah.
Eric: just everything, but in sports, right? Because some houses are like, yo, you're gonna do a care extracurricular activity. I don't care what it is, saxophone, drums, basketball, you're gonna do something. Or And school, right? So some houses and some some don't. So it's it's it's kinda I guess individual basis nowadays.
smoo: But I think to me though, the caveat to that Bill, like you saying it's instilled in us, but I think the other side to that is like, nigga, if you're not gonna be great, I'm not taking my ass to this motherfucking practice.
Eric: Why don't Yeah. Because a a
3eezy bih: That's too much. it's a lot of the air, but
Eric: at so at one point in the parents life, they gotta start making sacrifices if them kids gonna be out there. So it's like all right, bro.
Wills On The Tank: Right, right. That's true. That is true. That
smoo: If you
Wills On The Tank: is true.
smoo: don't do like that little nigga on the bench, nigga, you do that on the couch.
3eezy bih: Mm-hmm.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Big Darrell: Yeah.
3eezy bih: No captain.
smoo: So nigga, it gotta be an even exchange, bro.
Eric: Right, right.
smoo: I'm not asking you to be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but nigga,
Eric: You're gonna put some effort.
smoo: do not waste my motherfucking time and money
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
smoo: if you gonna be out here bullshitting.
Wills On The Tank: Especially hey, look, especially when you when you start getting on them traveling teams and stuff like that, hey, that it that's a lot of time and effort and money for parents. That's a lot. That's a lot.
smoo: But if I had
Big Darrell: That's
smoo: to realize that, I used
Big Darrell: facts. That's facts though.
smoo: to go on them damn traveling basketball shit. I'm sitting on the beach. My mama driving all around the country. Don't worry
Big Darrell: Ha ha.
smoo: about it. I ain't playing next year. It's over. You good.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.
Eric: All right. We we don't get us.
3eezy bih: Hey, that that is crazy though, 'cause I wonder how much
Wills On The Tank: It's a lot it's a lot, bro.
3eezy bih: like with Ayla growing up, I wanna play basketball, volleyball, but I'm trying to figure out what would be the point, if she, let's say ten, twelve on that bench and I'm like, Yeah.
smoo: I don't think, I think, if she love it, keep doing it. Regardless if she on a bitch or not, I would say.
3eezy bih: Shit, for
Eric: support
3eezy bih: for ten grand ten grand for three months? Shit.
Eric: you show up I think yeah yeah nah yeah that's different if the kid love it now if a kid if the kid
Wills On The Tank: And
smoo: Right.
Eric: if the kid's effort is there and
smoo: Right.
Eric: you
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, that yeah.
Eric: and you like nah nah I'ma be there every day I'm gonna be there every practice if the effort is there
smoo: Right,
Wills On The Tank: Right.
smoo: right. That might be the answer right there.
Eric: Yeah, for sure.
Big Darrell: 'Cause if you put in the effort, you can't do nothing but get better.
Wills On The Tank: No, it's you got
3eezy bih: Hey Lussa, we done.
Wills On The Tank: Right. Look at Michael Jordan, you know what I'm saying? He didn't even make the first his first high school squad. I suppose his parents been like, he ain't doing nothing, you know what I'm saying? But
3eezy bih: I don't but hey, that's a good point though T we but I don't believe that story.
Wills On The Tank: What you mean?
3eezy bih: that bro, hey look, I get it. Ain't no way w
Wills On The Tank: Hey, sometimes people don't be as good as you think they be when they first starting out.
Big Darrell: Fancy, people work
3eezy bih: Give a
Big Darrell: work hard to get where they at and I believe that.
3eezy bih: fuck. Ain't no Michael Jordan not making the ninth grade team, bro. Like that that
Wills On The Tank: Bro, you think about Michael Jordan as Michael Jordan though.
smoo: Hey, what shit, you don't believe that story? I don't believe Lil Baby wrote his rap.
3eezy bih: That's fair too. I'm just saying I think the Michael Jordan story, I don't believe in conspiracy, I'm like, I ain't there, but I it's it's hard
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
3eezy bih: for me to believe that a nigga that's the f considered the GOAT by many and by far. And you tell me that nigga then make a hot topic.
Wills On The Tank: But you you
Big Darrell: But
Wills On The Tank: also gotta think that's that's a
smoo: Hey, you know what, you right,
Big Darrell: but I I feel like I feel like he worked harder than anybody though.
smoo: you right. Cause I went out there and I did the same shit when I didn't make the basketball team and I didn't turn into my controller. How the fuck
Wills On The Tank: Hey man, listen, some people
smoo: he turning into my controller?
3eezy bih: No, it's okay.
Wills On The Tank: Hey, that just make the that make his story. Go ahead, go my bad.
3eezy bih: No, you were talking to good.
Wills On The Tank: I'm just saying like i I I think it's believable, He he i it just Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Big Darrell: But I I just feel like even I believe you that.
3eezy bih: I didn't say it wasn't believable. I didn't say it was believable. I say
Big Darrell: But and that goes the smooth
3eezy bih: I I
Big Darrell: point. if La Baby never wrote his raps and gonna wrote his rap, the baby became bigger than gunner because I feel like he put more work in.
smoo: Nah, nah, that's a whole different story. I I think, I think, I think, I
3eezy bih: I mean what I no, I think that's a difference though.
Wills On The Tank: Nah.
Big Darrell: I don't think so, I don't think so.
smoo: think, I think QC, I think QC sold us that story really, really well.
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
Big Darrell: I just think look, baby, put that work in because he still made that that new song is a hit.
smoo: he did, when he got the light, he put the work in.
Wills On The Tank: He couldn't miss one time, boy.
Big Darrell: I'm gonna give you a better example. I'm gonna give you a better example. Remember Gilly the kid, quote unquote, I don't care if it's true or not, wrote for Lil Wayne, right? After the Hot Boys shit, Gilly wrote for Lil Wayne. Lil Wayne stayed in that booth, worked hard, and that nigga became better than BG. He became better than Juvenile. He became better than all the motherfucking hot boys. But initially he wasn't better than the Hot Boys.
3eezy bih: Mm so there, my only push
smoo: I heard that. I heard that too. And I heard that story and it made sense to me, honestly. I heard,
3eezy bih: But but I got feedback for that.
Wills On The Tank: Time with Gaeli.
smoo: yeah, Wayne being a little kid.
3eezy bih: They say Birdman wrote his shit too. So but but I get that. That's what
Wills On The Tank: But he was a child. it like
3eezy bih: I'm saying. So my my pushback to that to compare it to sports though, rap is yeah, you have to be talented. But it also more of if people like you. I
smoo: or law, right.
3eezy bih: like I believe Smooth was better than a lot of niggas. But it's also about who who people can gravitate to. I can't deny nigga averaging thirty.
Big Darrell: Well well that that that that's marketing, but but what we what we're saying is becoming great at something like so you can still be a great rapper and not be famous. That's that's totally different. In sports, it equates to being famous because if you're great at a certain sport and you practice, you're gonna be famous essentially, right? So with rap, it's not the same thing. So you could be well okay.
3eezy bih: That's why I say that's why I said my pushback, right? So cause even though even the even even though it's like it's it's it's a lot of shit that come in the rap. Like me, for instance, some people think J Z the greatest, some think people think Wayne the greatest, some people think these niggas like Larry June. I tried to do listen to that shit that damn near died. Anyway. But anyway, I try to get that shit a chance. Me, hey, me, hey,
Big Darrell: Yeah.
Wills On The Tank: But he's not the greatest rapper ever though. he's not in that conversation.
Big Darrell: Nah he not the greatest.
3eezy bih: nigga were listening to Larry June couldn't wait till July. That shit's right. Gabriel.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: But but when you think of somebody like Wayne, right? Wayne was never the popular artist. He was never number one until that nigga put in hard fucking work and became number one. he he
3eezy bih: No, I'm not I'm I'm not disagreeing with you that it takes part. No. No.
Wills On The Tank: That's true. Now that's a great that's a great that's a great take. He basically was Michael Jordan, br pri who didn't make the team, basically.
3eezy bih: No, Daryl, so what no
Big Darrell: Right. That's that's Wayne.
3eezy bih: no Daryl, what I'm saying is this the difference between basket sports and rap. At the end of the day, yeah, you work hard at your craft, but people still gotta like it. Rihanna ain't did shitting forever and she still got, the people by the d you know what I'm saying? I'm just saying, it's still it just singing, rapping, entertainment still costs like Stephen A, for instance, he may not be the best analyst, but he draws people, just his personality, right? But he still was
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. That's a good point.
3eezy bih: a hard worker. But he may not be a even a better analyst than Ryan Ryan. You know what I'm saying? You never know. But I'm just saying it's about
Big Darrell: Right, right, right, right.
3eezy bih: that's more about drawing. I can give you an example, for instance, Jokic. Jokic. He great, but he ain't polarized as far as personality. But since he's still so great, he still get that fame. he's just like, shit, the nigga's still hooping. You see what I'm saying? That's what
Big Darrell: Right, right, right.
3eezy bih: we're talking about with Michael Jordan. I just can't believe a nigga that's considered the greatest ever. And then he changed that bitch around changed that bitch around in one year.
Big Darrell: But but but okay, so so so Ding, what you what you arguing is, okay, so so I'm a firm believer
smoo: Bill, you got next.
Big Darrell: a nigga can be right, a nigga be the greatest motherfucker naturally talented. But if a nigga is is is like okay, he good, he understands the fundamentals, and he worked, let's just say he worked three times as
Wills On The Tank: Work he'll beat every time.
Big Darrell: hard as a nigga with natural talent, eventually
Wills On The Tank: Every time.
Big Darrell: that hard work gonna over over shoot that that natural talent. I'm a firm believer in that.
Wills On The Tank: I agree with that.
3eezy bih: Terror. But but that's yeah,
Wills On The Tank: I agree with that one hundred percent.
3eezy bih: that's true. But we talking about you gotta realize these nigg this is one percent of one percent in NBA. all them niggas was working hard with talent. they didn't like
Big Darrell: But but you gotta think, well, Michael Jordan did, Michael Jordan, but they weren't working as hard as Michael Jordan. All them niggas said that. All them niggas
3eezy bih: No, no, no.
Big Darrell: used to go, even when Scotty trained with Jordan, the nigga was saying don't nobody train like that nigga.
3eezy bih: understand it but you can't my let's go with
Wills On The Tank: Right.
3eezy bih: my skill set right
Big Darrell: Uh-huh.
3eezy bih: I don't care how fucking great I work hard I'm never gonna be that one percent that's what I'm saying so Jordan Jordan was it what I'm
Big Darrell: You okay, okay, I'm gonna give you an example. I'm gonna give you an example, then
3eezy bih: saying no hold on let me finish
smoo: That's I was. That's my my the joke I made about. Me not making a team and then trying to go be Michael Jordan. It didn't happen.
3eezy bih: Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Big Darrell: But D I disagree with that.
3eezy bih: I understand he what I'm saying there, there, listen. What I'm saying is Michael Jordan in ninth grade might not been that one percent, but he damn sure won twenty. Probably three. So he'll that three percent of not making it in ninth grade is crazy.
Big Darrell: Believe he probably was. No, Dean, Dean. It is okay, so it's just like this right here, right? that nigga, lethal shooter, right? That nigga shoot every day. That nigga is probably the top 1% of shooters all the time. And nigga. But it don't matter. He
Wills On The Tank: Crazy. Crazy.
3eezy bih: And guess what? He not in no fucking league! That's what I'm trying to tell you!
Big Darrell: can't go because he had a heart condition.
Wills On The Tank: But niggas know who he is though.
3eezy bih: Can't go work.
Big Darrell: He had a
smoo: Bill, you about to say, Bill?
Eric: I just wanna I wanna have a conversation with Michael Jordan, ninth grade coach. what the fuck did you see? Why did what what what was you missing, bro? Or what was Jordan missing? Hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up, hold
3eezy bih: That's what I'm saying.
Big Darrell: He he probably went good.
Wills On The Tank: I but look it it c it could have been look think about this, it could have been other variables. It could have been other variables. He could have been he could have been
smoo: Could have been politics. Could have been politics. Could have been politics.
Eric: up. chat GPT says this nigga name was Clifton Pop Hearing, the varsity basketball coach. At Emsley A. Laney High School in wa in Wilmington, North Carolina. Jordan didn't make the varsity team as a sophomore. Instead, Harry placed him on the junior varsity team where he much so he didn't get cut. He just didn't make varsity. That's all. Right. Let me see. Man, he so that's so that narrative.
Big Darrell: Right. As a sophomore though, that's still great. Sophomore don't
Wills On The Tank: I was just about to say I was just about to say it could be other variables.
Big Darrell: I think that's a I think that's a a a a a hierarchy status that high schoolers do.
Eric: Right, that's what smooth said.
Big Darrell: I don't like they no sophomore really. You might be on but you always gonna be on the bench. You ain't finna go start over no scene. I don't give a fuck
Eric: Unless you billy Joe Johnson.
Big Darrell: how good you is. Cause it's like that learns that builds character.
Eric: Yeah. but it talents so deni undeniable Billy Joe Johnson, you got to play this man as a eighth grader. You know what I mean? Shout out to Billy Joe. RP to that boy.
3eezy bih: Okay, see all right, there we go. So there we go. All right, right, Bill. Michael Jordan Michael
Big Darrell: See yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
3eezy bih: Jordan was not entirely cut from Lang Okay, see now this makes sense. Michael Jordan was not entirely cut from Langley High School basketball program, but he was passed over for varsity day. I get
Eric: Yeah. He wasn't cut out of the way. He he was put on TV.
Big Darrell: He just cut from the varsity team.
smoo: But they got to, they got to,
3eezy bih: that.
smoo: make the story. Yeah.
Big Darrell: Make make it Hollywood. They gotta make a
Wills On The Tank: It's for the story.
Eric: Hey Smooth, Smoo, you remember them JV days
Big Darrell: story out of it.
Eric: where we on that bus? And then
smoo: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Eric: my dog got promoted to to varsity and bussing head. Hey, that was crazy. I'd be like
Big Darrell: But look, but look, that probably made his ass work harder. That probably him
smoo: Word.
Big Darrell: s but hold
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: on. Michael Jordan could've felt like that. He could've felt like he got cut from the team because the nigga ain't make varsity. So he gonna go

3eezy bih: he he apologized to Kyrie Irving. Aaron Rogers went on a rant about Doctor Fauci. It's this it crazy.

Big Darrell: The United States.
smoo: yeah, just taking the, even necessarily the United States, the powers that be. I'm going to just say that. But, it just seems,
Big Darrell: Facts, facts. Okay, okay. That that's even better.

Big Darrell: Cause who else you gonna blame but the
smoo: Right.
Big Darrell: face?
smoo: Right. Right. Right.
Big Darrell: Who gave him the orders? They don't know who gave him the orders though.
smoo: Right, right, right, right, right. And he like on Capitol Hill and they grilling
Big Darrell: Grilling his ass, ain't it?
smoo: that nigga, man. They grilling him. You know what saying? And he was like on, he was on, they had a tape where he was saying he was saying the way you get people to get vaccinated is like, he was saying you mandated at the schools, you mandated at the job. you basically, you're gonna make,
Big Darrell: It was mandated everywhere.
smoo: yeah, you're gonna make the people who don't get the vaccination, you're gonna make them feel like outliers, And so that's yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah,
Big Darrell: Facts. And that's what happened. And and then you know what else even what's even crazy, what's even scarier, right? They was putting up the numbers of how many people were dying with COVID, but they came out and said it wasn't even more than the flu. But then what's even more scary than that, if you had COVID. And you knew how bad it was, then you like you on the fence, damn, should I do, should I get the vaccine since how bad this shit was? Or or is the vaccine bad for me? Cause you had left and right. Both some people saying it's good, some folks like, nah, this shit gonna fuck up your DNA, all that type of shit. You know what I'm saying?
smoo: Man, they had niggas out here trying to give niggas free burgers.
Big Darrell: Yeah.
smoo: They niggas out here trying to give free burgers
Wills On The Tank: Man
smoo: to get you a vaccine.
Big Darrell: That's what I'm saying.
Wills On The Tank: I I just seen something not too long ago on on the I won't say Instagram where they said they was trying to blame juvenile because he came out with that vaxx that thing up. he came out with that that whole thing.
Big Darrell: Yeah.
Eric: Whoa Whoa, that's crazy. I never knew about that.
Wills On The Tank: That was they was they was trying to get I just seen that. I just seen something on that like a few months ago. a few like a few
Big Darrell: That shit's so creepy.
Wills On The Tank: days ago, I just seen that. Man, y'all don't y'all didn't see that commercial
3eezy bih: Yeah.
Wills On The Tank: where juvenile

Wills On The Tank: came on, he was like vaxx that thing up.
Eric: New
Big Darrell: I never vaxxed that thing up. Yeah.
Eric: Jewelry, you didn't.
Wills On The Tank: Man,
Big Darrell: When you
Wills On The Tank: that's crazy. Yeah, you you seen it, Daryl? You seen it? Yeah, you know it. So I ain't crazy.
Big Darrell: said it, it just sparked a memory about that shit, William. I seen him.
Eric: Hey, and that's cold standing. That's cold standing.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah, yeah. They but they I just seen something on the internet, on Instagram. I wish I would have posted it or sent it to y'all. But they
Eric: that's
Wills On The Tank: was trying to say they was trying to come down on juvenile a little bit because he was basically promoting people go get vaccinated or whatever. So yeah. That's crazy. He did yeah, he
Big Darrell: B si boss don't know better.
Wills On The Tank: probably didn't.
Big Darrell: And then and then if you had safe and you had somebody close to you that died from it, so you just really like it's like fear mongering, essentially.
smoo: Yeah.
Big Darrell: cause so you they pumping it in the news, they pumping it on on commercials, they getting artists to promote it, they telling schools, they telling you jobs, you can't work here if you don't show your paperwork. And then
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's true.
Big Darrell: you scared if you did have it and you had that shit for twenty one days or fourteen days, you like, damn, I don't wanna get that shit again. But then they telling you, It ain't gonna stop you from getting it. It's just gonna help your immune system. So you you in a rock in the hard place essentially. And so
smoo: Yeah, for sure. For sure.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.
smoo: And I think, I think during that time too, my, my personal opinion was like, I, I didn't get the vaccine, but at the same time it was like, I understand, I understand that people saying man, it was just like a lot of people saying man, vaccines supposed to take 10, 15 years to be made, man. It was just like a lot of niggas who act like they knew what the fuck they was talking about.
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
smoo: You know what saying? So it was just
Big Darrell: Right.
smoo: like to me, just let whoever do what they want to do. You know what saying? And
Eric: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
smoo: I think that's really what the true problem is, is that people still didn't let people do what they wanted to do. I'm saying?
Eric: What they wanted to do, bro. It's crazy because I was like, Man, I ain't never getting that vaccine. Man, them folk hit hit me with their email, you will not be working here, you will not be paid. Boy, I was first in line. I wouldn't have got that vaccine, I
smoo: Henry!
Big Darrell: Siete see.
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
Eric: would get two more because their check keeps coming, you know what I mean?
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, bruh.
smoo: Yeah!
Eric: Hey, I was like,
Big Darrell: It did.
Eric: bro, I ain't finna play with these folks, and I think that's what people are mad about. They like, yo, bro, man, you I wouldn't

Big Darrell: If they wouldn't force you to, they force you.
Eric: Some people are

Eric: some health symptoms, self symptoms like long term to these vaccines. studies are coming out that people with these vaccines that's like got heart high rate of heart palpitations and some most of and people are like, yo, bro, we got this vaccine and it was mandated and now what what somebody got an answer for that.
Big Darrell: And and the craziest part about it is I had COVID.
smoo: Yeah, and then you think about all the stocks, you think about Moderna.
Wills On The Tank: But who's gonna answer for that? Yeah.
Eric: Yeah.
Big Darrell: I had COVID, man, that shit was so bad. It was like the shit would not go away. It was for 21 days. I I I remember this shit. It was three to four weeks. I was just in this before the vaccine came out. I was like, man, they need to come out with something. I'll I'll take that bitch right now. that shit. But see,
Wills On The Tank: we yeah.
Big Darrell: it's so and it's like it's in a weird spot. I I never got it afterward, because I'm like, man, hey, my immune system after this shit, that bitch oughta be like pumped up.
Eric: Yeah.
Big Darrell: But going through it, I'm like, boy, I'd take whatever the fuck they got, boy, I'd take a any motherfucking shot. that shit a and so
smoo: Right. Right.
Eric: Feeling.
Big Darrell: it's like you're in a hard place. You don't know to take it or not take it or a
smoo: But you know the thing about medicine and all this type of stuff. I seen my boy, what's his name? He a doctor. One of these health doctors. Yeah,
Big Darrell: Uh-uh Y key.
smoo: Dr. Waki, he one of those guys who got really big during COVID. Yeah, that's another topic in itself. That's another topic in itself.
Big Darrell: W with the locks, right? Dude with the locks, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I I forgot his
Wills On The Tank: yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you're talking about I know exactly who you talking about. I know you're talking about
Big Darrell: name, but I know exactly who you're talking about.

Wills On The Tank: Putting your food. Yeah. Man, you know what's so
Big Darrell: Right.
Wills On The Tank: crazy? Me and Bip was we was talking about something like that. how we we we shelter ourselves from all this stuff on the outside. we we we get guns to protect ourselves. We lo we got all these locks, we got security home systems, and we'll go inside and go inside smoke and drink ourselves to death. you know what saying? sometimes you be more harmful to yourself. than
smoo: Ew.
Wills On The Tank: anything in this world,
Big Darrell: Your environment.
Wills On The Tank: but you always pretrana you always trying to protect yourself from everything else. It but sometimes you
smoo: Yeah.
Wills On The Tank: could be your worst you could be your own worst enemy and don't even realize it.
smoo: Yeah, that's like the book I was telling y'all about a few weeks ago, what are the white people, they stayed in Africa and they basically, wanted to keep themselves from, they wanted to stay protected from the blacks. And so they built these fences and they built these barbed wires to keep their kids from going outside. And the little nigga got caught in the barbed wire. You know what
Wills On The Tank: Mm.
smoo: saying? And he had a
Big Darrell: Yeah.
smoo: fatal death. So basically the point is of
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
smoo: what y'all saying, you know what I'm saying? to that whole point.
Big Darrell: You trying to keep them out of you
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: harming yourself.
Wills On The Tank: However, you do more harm to yourself.
3eezy bih: I I also this though, it's just like you said, he the fall guy. He he is everybody was, repping his name when, it was super serious. Now, now that it died down and people getting some, everybody a Sunday a Monday morning quarterback, people get to get a chance to go back to see what was going on. It's like, nigga, you the one told us to do this. And really it was new to him too. And he was just like as a signs matures, that's when you like, shit, well, even if he made the mistake or not. So I d I don't I'm not of course I ain't qualified to make that judgment on him, but it it sounds like everybody just kinda playing Monday morning quarterback,
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
3eezy bih: you throw that, why would you throw that? Well see nigga that were open at the time. Now you look back at it. Yeah nigga were dying of
Big Darrell: And that that that's true. Right, right. He didn't know either. He's just trying to stop motherfuckers from dying.
smoo: What you niggas dying? What you want me to do?
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
3eezy bih: And and I haven't I haven't watched Stephen A Apology. so I ain't Well yes I am. I I haven't seen his apology, I just know he apologized. But I still don't understand why he apologized because his whole pref
Big Darrell: 'Cause he was calling their ass dumb.
3eezy bih: well no, because his whole preference to Kyrie Irvin won the fact that, he understood that he didn't take the the vaccination. He was just saying for y'all, even us. nigga, then no who who who who tested out Ritlin? what's what's a what's a heel what's a drug that can get you back on your
smoo: Yeah, I get your point.
3eezy bih: Yeah, he was like a doctor say, Hey, this get you like ACL tears. You you going automatically in the surgery, right? you don't know what you're going on, you don't know who the doctor you know what I'm
smoo: And you don't know what they putting in your body. Right. Yeah.
3eezy bih: saying? It's like so that's what his point was. So that's why I understand his apology.
smoo: Well, think he just, know, think he just, to me it just feel like he just I don't think he really ever wanted to have beef with Kyrie Irving in the first place. You know what
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
smoo: saying? And I do
3eezy bih: Thanks.
smoo: think Kyrie is selfish still, you know what I'm saying? And he, that's the point he made. Then he said, he looked at it as selfishness and not being courageous. I'm saying? So I think that's why he said he apologized. But
3eezy bih: Okay.
smoo: I still think, Kyrie, is still a self-centered guy, because even after COVID, he still did a lot of stuff that was self-centered, but, that's why he apologized, because he said he didn't feel like he looked at it as, being courageous.
3eezy bih: Well, i but we drink Tylenol. I guarantee most y'all ain't most of us ain't did a deep dive of what Tylenol actually is. We just know mom gave us that shit.
smoo: Yeah. Yeah. Minister Farrakhan
Big Darrell: That's right.
Wills On The Tank: Right.
smoo: said some shit like that before. was just
3eezy bih: Bru.
smoo: like, yeah, he was just, it's the same thing. He was just like, he says something like, you get vaccines and he asked the doctor, he asked somebody like, do you know what they putting in that? And the dude was like, yeah, nah, this is, to help me get better. He was like, nah, but what's in it?
3eezy bih: Right.
Wills On The Tank: You'll know.
3eezy bih: And the thing the thing is though, even if you research it and find out what the hell it is, you don't know what that You don't even know what that is. So that's why I'd be like, What
Wills On The Tank: You still don't know exactly.
smoo: Bro, that's I'ma say this, cause I'ma say this too, because that's just that's just when people get information about off the internet and, and I kinda like, I kinda stop, I just start taking stuff for how it makes me feel. But I remember, I remember you have people who do all this research. And and it's like, bro, do you not know that there are, there are paid entities and paid
3eezy bih: Yeah, yeah.
smoo: individuals who, who purposely put this information out for you to believe it, for, for it to be believed by you and you go take it as facts.
3eezy bih: Right.
Wills On The Tank: Right. As the gospel, you just you just go with it, yeah.
smoo: just imagine when Barack Obama was becoming president and how many probably fake Facebook websites were created to go against him or go for him. You know what saying? It's like, bro, y'all don't, you don't really know.
Eric: Yeah, I can't.
Wills On The Tank: It it is so crazy 'cause we are because we are in the information age, it's so much information that you could almost say that you don't really know what to believe. You know what I'm saying? Because you can find Man, that's that's a hard now because they they Yeah, go ahead, go ahead. Yep, yep.

Wills On The Tank: right, right, right. They didn't have the
3eezy bih: Yeah.
Wills On The Tank: information that we have the a at at their at their fingertips. So they they pro they were at a disadvantage. But now We got so much information that we can still be at a disadvantage because you really don't know what to believe sometimes.
Big Darrell: Right.
smoo: That was a bar. That was a bar for real.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
3eezy bih: I I would say I would say this too. I was just it's just it's it's crazy 'cause we do a lot of shit that we don't like like that we don't know exactly what the fuck going on. y'all supposed to get y'all teeth cleaned every six months, right?

We was talking about cars on how they make money, how they make money one day. and I don't think we really got to the to the bottom of how they make money. And one of the biggest things is see the fucking service and parts,
Big Darrell: Right.
smoo: service and parts,
Big Darrell: 'Cause as they say the c still need to make more money.
smoo: they gonna tell you, they gonna tell you, it's so crazy bro, cause I used to work at Firestone. Nigga gonna make you pay, if you don't know nothing about an oil change, they gonna tell you to bring your car to Firestone and they gonna make
3eezy bih: Yeah.
smoo: you pay that 115, Bill, they gonna make your ass pay that 115, $30 for that big ass truck.
Eric: Yeah.
smoo: Nigga, my homeboy Billy do that same oil change for $20.
Big Darrell: Damn.
smoo: Hey, and don't it don't gotta be the, it don't gotta be the fucking high mileage. It don't gotta be
3eezy bih: Yeah, I ain't up yet.
smoo: the fucking, the premium oil, the synthetic
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
smoo: oil. It don't gotta be none of that. Bro, that same fucking oil for $20 gonna do the same thing. If you maintain that bitch. Now it might go a little faster. You might not, you might get a little bit more gas. You know what saying? By using the other one, but that bitch gonna stay running with that 20. How haunting!
Eric: Hey, and then when you then
Wills On The Tank: Right, right.
Eric: when you c when they come tell you, yo, we got your car poured up, you but hey, let me talk to you. This is what you're giving
smoo: Yeah! yeah, yeah!
Big Darrell: I feel the
Eric: you a whole
Wills On The Tank: I didn't even ask you for all it.
smoo: But see, but see, but see the problem with that is you don't ask for it. But if they, but if they don't tell you, you gonna bring it back to them and
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
smoo: be like, why the fuck y'all niggas ain't tell me my goddamn angels. You know what I'm They gonna be like deep. They gonna be like deep.
Wills On The Tank: What's the yeah, yeah, that's true, that's true, that's true.
Eric: y'all touched it last. Y'all had y'all hands on the level. What y'all do?
Wills On The Tank: Hey. Hey, the same same even way when I used to work at Canyon's Nissan, that's pretty much what they they'll sell you an a brand new Nissan, but then they'll they'll already plant the seed in your mind. Okay, this is what you get if you come back every five, three thousand, five thousand miles. 'Cause they got the little oil shop, they got the little mechanic shop right there that you can pull. So now you steady seeing these people roll back in, you putting more selling out more money, you know what I'm saying, for the for the car, even going back to houses. You said just like you said, somebody saw the windows and said, Okay, this could be a business. Think about insurance. Like s you think about people on the coast. It's hurricanes galore, you know what I'm saying? Or even a threat of hurricanes. So they're like, okay, you need flood insurance. You you know what I mean, or or
smoo: Yeah.
Eric: It's funny. Willio, just think about this too. It's like, all right, insurance companies see on the coast. It's like, man, a hurricane happened. I bet insurance companies, they really get excited after that because they know I'm finna charge these Negroes double for this insurance that another hurricane ain't gonna hit
3eezy bih: But yeah, that didn't help.
Eric: in another ten, twenty years. And it's like,
Wills On The Tank: And so do.
Eric: bro, they get excited
smoo: is.
Eric: and it's everything is a business. And I think I watch Market Mondays, man, in he said something, he was like, Yo, when you get rich, there's a he said there's a what did he say, there's a million ways to get rich, but he said there's ten million ways that they're gonna try to take it from you. And that's that's something that stuck with me. I'm like, dang, I knew you never thought about that. You never
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Man. Even with
smoo: But,
Wills On The Tank: your phone. You get
smoo: but,
Wills On The Tank: an iPhone, you think you need an iPhone case. Now you need you gotta buy. Just
Eric: Mm-hmm.
Wills On The Tank: like what what's my issue? I think I need more storage. Now you know what I'm saying. you know what I'm saying? It never is.
smoo: Yeah, you need more thought. we got that right here. iCloud iCloud
Big Darrell: So you gotta buy a whole new phone. You need you need the eighteen.
Eric: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Big Darrell: Yeah, you need that two terabyte iCloud storage, Willio.
3eezy bih: Well, they they about to get built again. They about to get built again, T Wheel. And nigga Jay got

3eezy bih: And that bitch don't call number a dollar. They making a hundred percent profit off your air.
Eric: Nigga, how many Nikes you got back in that closet? How many Nikes you got back in that closet? Hey,
3eezy bih: No, I give you another point. I give you another point. That's true. I give you I give you another point, Bill.
Eric: that's the thing with b black folks too. We gon point out one problem, we gon we gonna point out somebody else issues when we got our own issues to the
3eezy bih: no, I'm stating the issue with you. I'm stating the issue. I'm stating I I'm I'm hey I'm stating the issue with you.
Wills On The Tank: I noticed I do too, so I I had to pull back on that. I noticed I be doing that. I definitely I'm one of those people. I had to be dang, you be doing stuff too, bro.
Eric: I I do that too. I do that too. I I'm black people. I'm talking about myself.
3eezy bih: I'm stating the issue with you, because in about three weeks I'm getting I'm about to buy the same game that I done had for a year. 2K.
Eric: Two K.
smoo: Hey, y'all niggas know I got about 10 pound Metcon.
3eezy bih: yeah, the same color. Yeah, so I'm wrong with that nigga. No, that's a serious problem though.
Eric: Hey y'all remember the true life shows true life. I can't stop buying Met Cards.
3eezy bih: Hey.
Wills On The Tank: that show. I remember that show. my goodness. Delta show.
3eezy bih: That that nigga smooth ain't got problems.
Eric: man documentary for this part of roll. man.
smoo: I just bought I just bought three pair in the last month bro. Motherfucker got dirty. I bought another
3eezy bih: Hey, that's crazy.
Eric: That's crazy. That's for s that's crazy. That's insane. But what about some horses?
3eezy bih: And them bitch, hey, and them bitches not even comfortable. Bro, no they not, bro. You ever work you ever worked out
smoo: Bro, yester years, bro. Bro, that's just...
3eezy bih: in them bitches? Man, that bitch had my foot g going
smoo: Yeah, yeah, yeah, all the time.
3eezy bih: stupid. Hey.
Eric: I seen the all white ones, I was like, them kinda clean.
3eezy bih: No, bro, them bitches ain't bad
smoo: Nah, this is my life.
3eezy bih: though, too. Bill, it's just the fact this nigga had a stock X tag on some.
Big Darrell: Ha ha.
smoo: the whole was, well, they was expensive.
Eric: We went to stock exit guys.
smoo: Hahaha!
Big Darrell: Stock eggs be high too, 'cause they gonna put that up charge on them, but
smoo: Right, right, right.
3eezy bih: Bro, who goes to StockX to get some regular Deggler shit? That nigga went

3eezy bih: the tag on that bitch. Get the fuck out of here. That nigga was treating
smoo: Hey, man.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
3eezy bih: them bitch like some red rolls, man.
smoo: we got next man the man who lost a 950 million 50 million dollar hard drive and Bitcoin hold on let me rephrase that the man who lost 950 million in Bitcoin stop searching after 12 years he lost his hard drive he just stopped search when John nigga still be search
3eezy bih: For what? I mean what you what you where else
Eric: Fifty million?
3eezy bih: you gonna look?
Big Darrell: But but I I I th I think they made him stop searching because it was like causing a hazard to the 'cause
smoo: What you mean that made him stop looking?
Big Darrell: it was a hazard to the to to the community and the environment 'cause he wanted them to dig up all that trash in the in the landfill and they just told him they couldn't do that.
smoo: and for real.
Big Darrell: Hell yeah. a ax ask ax
Eric: I don't I don't I would have fallen away though.
Big Darrell: a a ax ask Chat
Wills On The Tank: Che
smoo: Chad CPT.
Big Darrell: W T why wh why did they make him stop looking?
Eric: Right.
Big Darrell: I I think I think 'cause he he wanna he was even telling them he was gonna pay the ass a hundred and fifty million he found that hard drive.
smoo: But so what the fuck, how the fuck do you lose $950 million in Bitcoin? What the fuck?
Big Darrell: But
Wills On The Tank: That's
Big Darrell: but he but he lost
Wills On The Tank: wild, boy.
Big Darrell: it before it was a a thing, it was like wasn't even worth a penny. 'Cause he mined it earlier in the earlier days. And what happened was I guess you
smoo: Explain explain the mind and know explain the mind and know because I get it But I don't get the mind enough Bitcoin explain it to me
Big Darrell: Okay, so so the mining at the very beginning, so to mine Bitcoin is is very similar to how gold works, right? to get gold, you have to have physical mining gear and you have to have miners that go into the ground and get the gold, right? And dig for the
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
Big Darrell: gold. And so in the earlier days, it's just like the gold rush with Bitcoin. you can go to a lake and you might find you might look up and find a whole bunch of gold. And so in the earlier days of Bitcoin, you combine it. with just your computer hard drive and you can probably mine a hundred a day. But they wasn't worth anything.
smoo: What the fuck is, what is mining though? What do you mean? how do you
Big Darrell: Mining is
smoo: mine on a computer versus, versus.
3eezy bih: B so what is
Big Darrell: So so
3eezy bih: say, so it's a money
Big Darrell: so so the hard drive on your computer, so so with Bitcoin, instead of having physical gear, you have a hard drive, right? And your hard drive is solving an equation. So it's a cryptographic equation that gets harder over time. And so all your hard drive is doing is solving a math problem, essentially. And then each math problem it solves, you earn a reward. And so the more people that get on the network, and the harder the problem becomes. So the Less you can mine. And so Bitcoin is at a a valuation. It it stays at 21 million Bitcoin. That's that's the most it'll ever be. So it won't be more, it won't be less. And so the more that is mine, I think it's 18 or 19 million have been mined now. So now it's to the point to where it's so hard to mine it, you might have to have a whole warehouse of hard drives just solving one equation. And that whole warehouse may solve. Let's say 10 Bitcoin a year. You know what I'm saying? So your computer where it used to do 100 a day, it is not feasible anymore. So you have to have more and more computer power to solve these equations. And so that's the mining of Bitcoin. It's just your computer solving the equation. So let's say for instance, when Bitcoin first started, your computer probably would have had to solve one plus.
smoo: In such a way, I slo- see!
Big Darrell: You can say it's it's one plus
3eezy bih: I'm reading it. That's what I say right.
Wills On The Tank: Mm.
Big Darrell: one is two, right? But then now that that it's so it's so big and majority of them have been mined, your computer might have to do the square root of infinity. You know what I'm saying? And so they
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
Big Darrell: say the last bitcoin would not be mined into a hundred years, even though it's only two million left to mine. But those two million is it's so hard.
smoo: But it's so crazy, it's so crazy.
Big Darrell: They won't be mine until a hundred and fifty years.
smoo: what's crazy though? I still don't get none of that shit. It's like a fucking foreign language.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.
Big Darrell: So, so but hold on hold on okay, so so so so so
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: so Bitcoin is just digital gold, right? I was watching a
3eezy bih: Yeah.
Big Darrell: documentary, I'm gonna send y'all this document, it's good as fuck.
smoo: He ain't go, he ain't go, he
3eezy bih: No,
smoo: ain't. This nigga didn't, this nigga
3eezy bih: I because I no. No.
smoo: didn't ain't never talked about VidCor and they don't get to talk about it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you right, you right.
3eezy bih: Bro, I'm saying No, there,
Eric: It's tough to
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah.
3eezy bih: Daryl, I'm saying yes. I'm saying yeah, because I I know
Eric: Okay.
3eezy bih: I know the big con as far as the surface level of it. Cause I know because that was part of the training of cause he got so big. So I know exactly what he's saying. Cause it on basically all the thing he's saying is, in simple terms for him, Daryl, basically you just it Once you it's like this this this problem you solve and once you sa it's like Mario basically. That big ass gold star. So one person find that gold star. Now each level, all computers are
smoo: goes harder.
3eezy bih: solving that problem to get that gold star. But the more the the more that's been gotten, or whatever the word would be, the
Big Darrell: Yep.
3eezy bih: harder that equation for each computer to
smoo: It's like the Pokemon car shit. the Pokemon shit.
3eezy bih: I if you wanna look at it that way, yeah, to get the mu first it'd be Pikachu, that was a rare. Now it's harder to get the mu. You know what I'm saying? But
smoo: Right. Right. But this is my, this is my thing though. So I understand the mining part of it, but. the stock of Bitcoin, that's a whole different business, right?
Big Darrell: What what now it is too is because now you have institutional investors and now you have futures and you have margin now. So now you have people that are opening up markets on Wall Street now, and they're betting on the price going up and down. So now it's it it becomes a bigger market because you're not just betting on Bitcoin and it's only 21 million Bitcoin, but now you have people that can come into the market that are just betting on the price going up and down. So that
smoo: Okay.
Big Darrell: that's what's also increasing the valuation, but it's still only gonna be 21 million
smoo: Okay.
Big Darrell: Bitcoin, but instead of owning the Bitcoin, like say for instance, you got a million dollars, you can just bet on the price of Bitcoin going up and down, and you still make money on it now. Yep, yep. And so
smoo: That's what I'm saying, right? It's a whole different business. It's a whole different business to it. So that's where it goes back to what we were saying. You know what I'm saying?
Wills On The Tank: Who's just saying
Big Darrell: It's a deal for everything.
3eezy bih: there you go.
Wills On The Tank: They create they create other stuff for the new for the stuff that just
Eric: Hey hey look, look.
Big Darrell: Yeah, cause cause now cause now first it was just owning a bitcoin because it's only twenty one million so it's rare essentially, right? So if you can own one, you'll essentially be in maybe the one or ten percentile of the whole world. Cause it's if it's eight billion people and it's only twenty one million Bitcoin, if you got one, that would put you in essentially if the price of Bitcoin goes up to a million dollars, right? You'll have one. Essentially. And so it's supposed to be a store of value similar to how gold is, right? gold is hard to mine. And so they try to get give you even the US made everybody give their gold up because they knew how hard it was. And what they did was was devalue the currency. So now they take all the gold and then they can print more money. And so the money devalues, but essentially Bitcoin is not supposed to devalue because it's stuck at a certain level and it only would be this amount. And so the guy he mined it even before Bitcoin I I want to say was even one penny. So he was mining a lot of them. And huh?
Eric: Yeah, look. Here it is. It says around
Wills On The Tank: Right.
Eric: 2009, Howells mined seven hundred seven thousand and five hundred to eight thousand Bitcoin on his personal computer back when Bitcoin was essentially worthless. In two thousand thirteen While cleaning out his home, an old hard drive containing private key to his Bitcoin wallet was accidentally thrown away and ended up in
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Eric: Newport Landfield. The Bitcoin itself isn't stored on the drive. The drive held a cryptographic key needed to access it. As Bitcoin's price
3eezy bih: That crazy.
Eric: skyrocketed over the years, the value of these coins climbed into hundreds of millions of dollars at the And at times has been estimated at more than nine hundred million, depending on Bitcoin's market price. He says, why did he why why did he stop looking? interestingly, he didn't voluntarily give up because he lost hope. Instead, several factors effectively and effectively ended his search. One, the city reportedly refused evacuation. shit, I'm not
Big Darrell: Yep, yep, yep. That's it.
Eric: okay. Newport City Council denied his proposals for years, citing environmental risk, hazardous waste, legal ownership issues, and the disruption that digging through massive landfall would cause. Number two, as a three of them, but his second one. He lost in court. He took it, he said, take me gonna take this trial. After more than a decade
smoo: He he
Eric: of proposal, a decade of proposals. and and legal actions a UK Judge dismissed his case in early twenty twenty five, ruling there was no realistic legal basis to force the city to let him dig up the
Wills On The Tank: Dang, dang, dang.
Eric: landfall. Number three,
smoo: Yeah, that's great.
Eric: the eye
3eezy bih: See anybody go find that bit?
Eric: right, right. Look,
Wills On The Tank: No, somebody gonna find it.
smoo: Somebody already got it.
Eric: the odds of recovery became increasingly slim. Even
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Eric: if even if he had a even if he had permission, the hard drive could have been crushed by garbage trucks.
3eezy bih: Yeah, that's what I about to say here, probably
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
3eezy bih: ain't gonna even matter.
Eric: It may have corroded after years underground. It was buried beneath hundreds of thousands of hundreds of thousands to more than a million tons of waste, making locating it extraordinarily difficult. Wow.
Big Darrell: And it it he probably has a better chance I don't know if you guys seen that new it was like a hack that just happened. I think guy got away with I don't know if 35 million or 350 million people had their Bitcoin on
smoo: I figured it all.
Big Darrell: cold wallets and he used AI to find a a hack to get into those to get the private keys and extract those Bitcoins that was on cold wallets and so a cold wallet means just like a wallet in your in your pocket. It's it's supposed to not be on network. And nobody's supposed to have access to it but you because you have a key to unlock that wallet. And so it's not supposed to be on the internet. you know how you have a wallet on your phone. let's say for
Wills On The Tank: Mm-hmm.
Big Darrell: instance, Cash App, right? You
smoo: Mm-hmm.
Big Darrell: Cash App is on a network. You can access to your phone. But then let's say for you take the money out of Cash App and put in your physical wallet, and then somebody come and pickpocket your wallet. That's essentially what happened.
3eezy bih: Yeah, you can big round.
Big Darrell: So he is better off trying to find someone to hack or possibly find a way to get that private key than find it in that landfill. And so that's what the city essentially like, nah, that's too much. And he waited too long.
smoo: That's a movie for real. That's a movie for real.
Eric: Yeah.
Wills On The Tank: yeah, yeah.
Eric: What I know about Bitcoin, them keys is hard to access. The little I do know about Bitcoin, them keys it's almost impossible. That's why that's why Bitcoin is such it's such a safe coin. Digital crypto it's such a safe crypto because it's so hard to access if you don't have the code.
Big Darrell: And so that's why he he was offering them folks a hundred and fifty million. took that bitch like but that's if he find it. Once you dig
3eezy bih: That they be finding.
Big Darrell: up all this shit and then nigga don't still don't find it. you gonna be pissed.
Eric: Somebody gonna dig it up a hundred years from now. Crypto, his his share gonna be worth a couple billion. Somebody gonna find.
smoo: Man, how y'all fucked about Meek Mill dropping Dreams and Nightmares 2?
Eric: Cool.
3eezy bih: that's real?
Big Darrell: Yeah.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
3eezy bih: Bro, so I heard a snippet.
Eric: Yeah. He should
Big Darrell: Yeah, I I thought it was me.
3eezy bih: What where I heard that shit at? I'm like, damn, did that nigga do a remix or something? I heard it somewhere.
Eric: have left the room. He should have left that song alone.
Big Darrell: You heard on say cheese. Yeah, yeah. It's like a remix thing.
Eric: This is lucky.
3eezy bih: No, I'm saying I na I know it is now y'all saying it, but I'm saying I thought I heard some I thought it was like a it didn't sound DJ-ish, not bad, but I thought it was that was if somebody put a verse on this nigga's song or something, his other verse on that song.
Big Darrell: 'Cause it didn't sound good, huh? It didn't sound like the original, huh?
Eric: Crazy.
3eezy bih: I was like, bro, some shit you just both leave alone. I ain't I ain't heard it well, so
Big Darrell: That's what I think.
3eezy bih: I ain't heard it well so I ain't making a fair judgment, but it's the sequel hardly ever be better than the than the what.
Wills On The Tank: The first one is beyond a classic.
smoo: And not only that, not only that, it's been 14 years. It's been 14 years.
Eric: Leave it alone.
Big Darrell: That's crazy then.
smoo: To me, a part two of that song 14 years later only tells me that your music career is shot.
Big Darrell: Failure.
smoo: It's done.
Eric: That's exactly what they say.
Big Darrell: And you trying to
smoo: It's like...
Big Darrell: rekindle your fans, but
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: it only gonna work if it's better. If it's not better, they're gonna
Wills On The Tank: Which is hard to beat.
smoo: I don't even think it would work. It don't even think it would work if it was better. It's 14 years, brother. know what
Big Darrell: That's true.
smoo: saying? That shit have been in every club. That shit have been in every
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
smoo: wedding, every graduation.
Wills On The Tank: No hook or nothing on it. It's just a flow. that's crazy.
smoo: Yeah, bro. Yeah, you.
Eric: And it's still riding.
smoo: And you ain't you ain't got
Wills On The Tank: Mean still to this day.
smoo: you ain't got the same hunger, your whole your whole image tainted. I'm saying don't even I think you just leave that alone. just like that. Let that be a part of your legacy. I'm saying.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
3eezy bih: That's what I'm
Wills On The Tank: Hey, people
3eezy bih: saying.
Wills On The Tank: sleep on that, Lord knows that he did with Torah Lanez too. That man that sh man but yeah, that's another subject.
3eezy bih: Whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah, no county. We're c I'm about to say that lower nose don't compare it. That's a good song, but they don't compare it to that that
Wills On The Tank: That's I think it's a good
3eezy bih: that's a nigga's
Big Darrell: That's true.
smoo: that might be the best intro of all time.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah.
Big Darrell: That might
3eezy bih: Yeah.
Big Darrell: be his best mixtape of all time too.
Eric: That's his that's his magnum opus for sure.
3eezy bih: That's that may be the best freestyle of all time.
Big Darrell: That's his like his mixtape is his best album. That's funny.
3eezy bih: And I'm you're talking about a Wayne fan, I'm just being honest with you.
Big Darrell: Him and J. Cole really got the same issue though, for real. They
smoo: What you mean?
Big Darrell: mixtapes is their best albums.
3eezy bih: Mm.
Big Darrell: That Dream and Nightmares is Meek Mills' best album.
smoo: I don't think that was...
3eezy bih: You talking about Wayne. You talking about Wayne?
smoo: Dreams and nightmares went on dreams and nightmares.
Big Darrell: Hold on, hold w what it was on? It was on the mixtape though, the blue flame mixtape.
Wills On The Tank: Hold on, wait a minute. That no, that was that was
smoo: That
Wills On The Tank: that was a album. Yeah, that
smoo: was his first album.
3eezy bih: Yeah, that was an Android one.
Wills On The Tank: was the first album. I bought that album. I remember that, yeah. No, it was a album, the album Dreams
Big Darrell: It was on the album it went on the mixtape, that blue flame mix it w what it was called.
smoo: Yeah, nah.
Wills On The Tank: and Nightmares.
smoo: Yeah, nah, that was the intro to his first album.
Big Darrell: Dream the Nightmare was the album. okay, okay, okay.
smoo: Mm-hmm. Yeah,
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, yeah, that was the album.
smoo: yeah, yeah.
Wills On The Tank: Yeah, that was a album. I got it right here.
smoo: Mm-hmm.
Wills On The Tank: Yep, yep.
3eezy bih: I think just some some shit you b you just supposed to not touch. it kinda bam eighty nine point game Dakota, leave that shit alone, homie.
Wills On The Tank: It's it's it's kinda hard to
smoo: Right, don't even, don't even, don't even mind.
Wills On The Tank: tell the artist that made it though. I I would my opinion, I think it's kinda hard to tell the artist who made it that don't touch it, because I think he always gonna feel like I could beat it, you know what I mean? Even though it may not be unbeatable. That's like Michael Jackson Thriller, like what he has some albums like that, but he haven't beat Thriller yet. That's his best selling album all the time. And it is the same because they 'cause
3eezy bih: That's not the same. That's not the same. No, that's not the same. No.
Wills On The Tank: when 'cause hold on, let me say, let me just say this. Because rumor has it that, I watched a lot of documentaries on Mike. That I think that album sold forty million copies. He has set he had set a he set a goal to hit a hundred million for the bad. Yeah, for the yeah, for the
Big Darrell: In the US, I think for the million in the US.
Wills On The Tank: yeah, the US. He said he for the bad album, he set a goal for a hundred million. So he was like harping on like if I don't have a hundred million, if I don't sell a hundred million, if I don't beat thriller, this is it's it's it's almost in I don't want to say impossible, but man,
Big Darrell: It
3eezy bih: No,
