For some clicks . Duh , that's damn insane . And I do have a couple of interesting . Obviously I say on the show .
All the time , you know I like listening to r&b money podcast . Shout out to jay , valentine and tank and shout out to the whole uh , johnny's house crew , you know I love listening to johnny's house . Y'all go ahead and start listening to them . It's like I said basically it .
Like I said basically it's a morning show , it's a morning show , it's a radio show , yeah , and they just , you know , cut it up , cut out the music and turn it into a podcast . So that's my daily listen for about an hour and a half , monday through Friday . So it was a couple of topics .
It was one they were talking about and I was like , oh , you know what , it was , one they were talking about and I was like oh , you know what ? we might have to bring it back up , but you know these dudes ain't here .
So one of the questions was you know once you transition , or once you know once you die , or whatever , if you , if you could know any stat
¶ Life Stats After Death
like in your life , like what would you If you could know any stat like in your life , like anything like any ?
just random Damn that's a tough one , since it's just two of us , we can do a couple .
This is for entertainment purposes only .
Any random stat , so it could be just anything .
No , no , no . Anything Like how many times I was late for school , or oh it's got to be a stat . No , no , I'm just saying .
No , this is for you Okay . So if I could know anything I want to know , like secrets , no , no , oh for me , oh for me , okay .
What it is is like throughout your whole life , like how many cars have I owned my entire life ? Or how many ? Like how many miles have I driven since I've been a driver , you know , since you've been driving since 16 .
Yeah , that'd be interesting .
So you know , obviously , once you pass on , yeah , yeah .
I think I would like to know exactly like how many miles I've walked . Yeah , right , yeah , exactly how many miles I've walked in my lifetime to get my knees to where they're at right now . Bad , he said bad , bad . But yeah , that's what I would like to know .
Listen , I was talking to Chris and I was like now this would be a good one for anybody or , you know , for for , like , let's just say us hoopers . So for any basketball game that you played in pick up , organize , whatever , or no , yeah , just running around , but any game , like I said , a pickup game 21, .
Anything where you kept score , yeah , how many points have you scored ? Oh , in my lifetime That'd be Bro no , I would wonder that . Yeah , I was like , because we was talking about LeBron , yeah , and you know how LeBron got to 50,000 . 50,000 , yeah , and I was like I know I gotta be , I'm 52 , so I know I'm past 10,000 .
So I'm trying to think I'm talking about listen , we've been playing since we were kids , right ? So , like your entire life . From your , I remember entire life being in the driveway , exactly . Pick up games with my folks , dude .
Just stuff like that , like all that Anything minus , like just shooting around , just shoot yeah .
But like a game , to where ?
somebody's going to win 21 .
Yeah , exactly , yeah , no , yeah , That'd be .
I was like I know I'd have to have , Because I mean you can do like oh , how many touchdowns have I scored ? But football is different , because you don't play football all the time , but basketball you can play it in recess .
Yeah , you can play it before school .
After school they said driveway In the driveway , one-on-one against my brother you know friends . So you know it got to be over 10,000 points .
Oh yeah , yeah , it's way more than that .
Exactly that's what I'm saying so if everything was counted as two or three , yeah , it's true , it got to be about 100,000 .
Because you got to think .
No , yeah , that's a lot .
You know what I'm saying ? It is a lot .
Because sometimes you play every single day In school . We played all during recess Because I was like man , I wonder if I had 50,000 points . So then what Chris said . Chris was like just think if you are at 20 , 30 , 40 , or 50,000 , how many you think LeBron is at ? Oh , I know , If he had 50,000 right now , legally .
Yeah , in . The . Nba In the NBA In the NBA , and then you add all his LeBron's been in the NBA what 20 years 22 .
22 years that's crazy . I was like that one .
I'd like to know how many words I've actually talked . Oh , that's a good one , right ? So like how many Just now ? Like just the counter .
Yeah , yeah , what was that movie ?
with Eddie Murphy , A Thousand Words . What was it called A Thousand ? Where , like every time he spoke , a leaf would fall from the tree .

But yeah , so and he had to yeah , Because I only saw that movie one time . Yeah , I saw it a couple times , but yeah , no , that did that because I was walking is good the words like you know how many , just like driving , you just figure how many miles since you had your driver's license .
You be like man the steps walk Because I don't want to see like , oh , how much money have I wasted .
That'd be depressing . That'd be depressing . I'd be like I'd have made two million dollars of my lifetime and I got five hundred dollars in the bank exactly that's why I said I'm sitting up here looking like man .
I got twenty seven dollars and thirteen cents and then it's like oh , oh , you just spent like $1.8 million , right .
You got a nice house , you got a nice car , but damn , but that ain't even wasted .

Yeah , yeah , boy , I tell you . No that's I'm trying to think what else ? So you got that , you have . Yeah , I wouldn't want to know that , though that's no . No , I don't know .
That's why I just want something like like basketball , just because something where , yeah , how many like any league , yeah , that that'd be , that'd be real good something I'm trying to think what else would be and and I know somebody thinking and then y'all's crazy here and no , we're not sitting up here talking about like women .
No , no , no , no .
I'm sure somebody probably sitting up here thinking and I know probably it's probably a couple of you women out there that probably had like a hundred dudes . And I'm messing around with y'all .
Yeah , I see .
But I'm telling you no , your body count the buckets , I was like , ah yeah , I got to be over 52 . We hoop every Sunday .
I mean , granted , we ain't playing no 82-game season , but dude from when you a kid A kid ?
yeah , because I remember Recess real games you played in 101 , anytime you touched the ball and it was alright 101 . And you had a brother to play with .
Oh yeah , so yeah , we'd be out in the driveway all the time , exactly . So all them buckets is going in Two four dog Go down to my cousin's house hoop in . The red dirt hands be dirty as hell .
Dog . I'm telling you man See that's how many ?
you know what , how many miles I've ridden like a bicycle just from a kid to now , because you know when you was a kid you'd be on your bike all the time . All the time Lived on that mud . I'd like to know that .
Yeah , no , that's . That's some interesting stuff right there . I just thought about that when they they be bringing up some , you know , that's some interesting stuff right there .
I just thought about that when they , I was like man they be bringing up some interesting topics .
boy and I was like you know what we're going to talk about . That you know Joe . Would I want to know how much alcohol has Joe consumed A lot . How much
¶ Basketball Points and Scoring
alcohol has he consumed in his lifetime up to his current age ?
As he's drinking his flask . He'd be like you know you're probably drinking right now , right .
Watching the game . Shout out , Joe .
Yeah , that's Congrats on your Bama , oh yeah .
Oh listen , they on your Bama . Oh yeah , oh listen . They shot 51 threes .
I know More threes than they took Two-pointer . Really , yes , they made 25 . They made 25 , but they took more three-point shots than they did .
Hey , we talking about March Madness , the NCAA tournament . Right now that's nuts 51 . I'm telling you , we already know the game has changed , so so much it affect us playing pickup . Since we are talking about it , just come down . I'm like man , I'm jacking up a three Fast break , nah .
Since we are talking about March Madness and just kind of hoops in general , dan Patrick , shout out to Dan Patrick . I heard this on the Dan Patrick show yesterday . They was talking about errors , right , and how LeBron James went on Pat McAfee , and they were just saying how you know , like you know players playing in different errors , right .
And LeBron James was like , yeah , you know , you can't compare the two because they are different areas , right , and how players evolve , right . And yeah , he said Giannis can go back in Dr J's era and score 250 a night . So , dan Patrick , so this is what Dan Patrick said . He said he would score 250 . 250 a night .
But this is what Dan Patrick said you can't do that because back then Giannis wouldn't be playing the way he does now . He'd be playing with his back to the basket like a big man used to play Dude . That's exactly what I'm saying Exactly If Larry Bird .
Reggie Miller , if all them cats played like right now , they would be playing they would be playing .
With their talents , they shoot the ball we talk about it all the time .
Now , mind you , we're recreational hoopers , not ex-college basketball players , not ex-NBA players , just recreational players . But we even said the way that we play me and Chris , we talk about this all the time . We talk about the Euro step . I think I did it , maybe once or twice and I did it Exactly by accident . Yep , I made the bucket .
I said damn damn , my bad if I thought I traveled . I said y'all's ball there's . I know that's cool a euro .
I was like what , if I've done it , like you said , it's by accident and , like you said , thought I traveled or I got caught up in a , I'm like yeah , oh damn , was that a euro stamp ? I can't replicate it because I don't do it . No , exactly .
But yeah , no , I don't . I do not know how to Eurostep . I'm sure I could look and learn , but first I don't need a Eurostep because I'm not driving to the hole , I'm just going to stay at the three-point line .
I try to drive to the home . I'm like I can't get there no more . Let me go ahead and take this outside .
As soon as I do . I wake up on Monday like damn , this , damn jumper's next , Because then I start getting ahead of myself . Oh shit , I still got it a little bit , For real . And then you wake up . This is what you pay for trying to have it my right shoulder .
So I got a question for you . We're going to talk about all our pains today , so if you can have one part of your body not be injured , what part of it ? Would it be Like if you just woke up Knees ?
Knees . Yes , yep , yeah .
I think that's probably consensus right there .
And then now see , you had a blown out knee right . Yep , yep , Told my ACL . Yeah , my knees are absolutely fine . I have a jumper's knee . Okay , I'm a one leg jumper . That's all mine is is just overuse . Overuse , like when I'm fine , I'm like , ooh , I still squat , do everything , everything is fine .
But once you know when we do play and I call myself getting aggressive or start getting a bunch of fast breaks , you're like oh hell , or I might take off one good time and kind of take off on that left leg man . But when I go off both legs I'm fine , that one leg , then that left knee start flaring up Like that's a wrap .
Yeah .
I'm done until next Sunday .
So for me it's like a confidence thing , right ? So , like I know my right knee , that's the one I blew out . Well , I have no meniscus in this knee whatsoever , so it's basically bone on bone .
Has knee whatsoever , so it was basically bone on bone , has it just ?
been blown out just one time . Yeah , so I tore my ACL , had that repaired partially , tore my MCL and my meniscus was repaired . Well , I had an MRI a few years ago . They said the meniscus is gone , gone .
I think that's what .
If he's bone on bone gone . I think , steve , bone on bone , yeah . So so it's more of a confidence thing . Like you go to make that step , you just like man , you just don't want to don't you ?
you wear , I do wear . You wear knee sleeves .
I started wearing knee sleeves . How do they feel ?
they feel pretty good , but it's still like keep them like worn . Yeah , I feel you . Though when you talk about the confidence thing and all that , it's still like cause .
When you know you feel if I keep moving right , I'm fine , but it's as soon as I sit down . If I'm down for 10 minutes and I try to get back up , that's when it's a wrap and I'm like some people be like are you okay ? I'm like yeah but this might be it . You know you ain't getting , you get about 60% now Father time is undefeated man , man , that's .
But yeah now , if I can wake up every day and one thing on my body feel good , it would be my .
Yeah , cause my , I told you my shoulder like okay , well , shoulder , slash back . I think what it is . I think it's from overuse . Oh yeah , it is Like you know you're a bench Then I go do dips . I was like man , I need to just kind of slow it down .
See , I've never really had any major back injuries too . I heard those are the worst . Oh , back injuries ?
Yeah , like the lower back . Oh yeah , see , no me , neither . I haven't had any . I'll tell you . The craziest thing is y'all can see a picture of my finger on Nobody's Talking . Yeah , that's our IG . Follow us . Nobody's Talking podcast .
I ain't going to talk about Twitter Because I don't gonna need to talk about Twitter , cause I don't X yeah me neither X Twitter . But yeah , no , I think it'll be , yeah , it'll be knees . Cause man that man .
I'm just waiting for this new technology to come . You know cause ? You know we watch Star Trek and all that you know how in Star Trek . They beam them up and they put them on the bed and they just run something over , like you got a fracture . They just put something , run something over and they good it starts healing .
Hey , just think how we talking about our little pains . And hey , y'all old people out there , y'all know exactly what we talking about too , especially if you still , you know , semi , I mean active , yeah , we're , we're still pretty active .
But uh , yeah , man , you sit up there and you like , it's just like when you wake up you can still move and do stuff , but it's just like man I was thinking about that the other day , right ?
so , like I said , if I sit down for an extended amount of time knees bent , I get up .
It's ginger right .
Man , you know , 10 , 15 , 20 years ago you just hopped right up and I started thinking about that . I'm like damn you know , like how you take stuff for granted . So I see all these young whippersnappers . Yeah , I sound like the old get off your couch guy , but just getting up and just jumping up and going I'm like damn man , what I would give that .
I saw these young kids in the gym this morning with their potty miles . They're playing one-on-one , just going at each other . I don't know they may be , I don't know if they had the day off from school or what . They were 14 , 15 . I hope they weren't older than that , because they look .
They may be 14 , 15 years old , but they were out there playing one-on-one and you just like man , you just saw these kids moving the Euro step . Like every time one of them went to the hoop , it was like a Euro . I'm like what man , me and Steve just down on the other end checking them out .
That brings me up on another topic Last week we was talking about you probably saw in the group chat the kid from Maryland hit the game , winning shot . Oh , that dude traveled , he traveled , right , he traveled . They tried to justify it , but he traveled , he traveled
¶ Today's Changing Basketball Game
. That was a travel that was three steps In our time he took man , look , I'm pulling this up now . He took one .
Because he led with his left . And what is a gather step ?
So Jed was on here . He was kind of trying to talk about it , right , yeah , we got , oh , man it would have been perfect to have JA back on here .
We got to have him back on when Joe ain't here .
Yeah , this is as March Madness we could talk about , but yeah , he basically said so what they say is that step , that initial step , when you don't have full control of the ball , it's technically your gather step . So , with genius territory , we're saying that you can bobble the ball all the way to the damn rim if you want to . So what ?
if I'm running down the court right , we on the fast break , and you pass it to me and I don't quite have the ball yet have control of the ball . Can I gather from half court all the way to the hoop without bouncing it ?
That's what technically genius territory Like if you don't have control , you're bobbling the ball .
You don't have control of the ball . I don't have it . I can just sit there and juggle , yeah , and then right when I get by the hoop , oh okay .
Grab it two steps and then put it out .
That was my gather step Dude these new rules , man .
I don't understand it either . Like I said when I saw it and I was saying it , I'm like he traveled and I know Chris was like , ah no , that was good . Then he went back and looked at it . He's like , yep , he traveled , but that's how we grew up playing right ? So it's one of those it's I don't know .
Man , I listen , I'm all for the game being competitive and all that . it's just a different game now it's way way different so that's why I try not to argue about anything in the gym anymore it ain't no fun .
I don't even know , I was just . I just say it look like a travel . But hey , hey , what do I know ?
I'm not a basketball player , nope , I just sit up there and be like oh okay , all I know is two steps , that's all I know , that's all I like I don't know . One , two no gather .
No , and half the time when these dudes was getting crossed over , I'm like dude . You paused it with the ball on top for like like 12 seconds , see to us , you turned it over .
That's an overhand to us or carry . That's and one style right . So yeah , we used to see that in the and one games all the time , but that's and one you know that's right . Right the harlem or college , no I . And then you cross over , you know . So yeah , it is what it is , get off my lawn . Yeah , exactly .
I know we sound like the get off our lawn guys , but Get off my lawn .
That's all I got to say . But you know , I play for exercise and exercise only .
You know you get good exercise . You mess around , look down , you're like man , I didn't ram 4.2 miles today . Where else you gonna get that exercise ? Because I'm definitely not going outside and running 4.2 miles , just like me , probably running up to maybe 55th Coming back .
Or maybe yeah 55th or 59th , 59th and coming back , or maybe 55th or 59th and coming back nah , I'm cold .
I don't even sound fun nah not running at least , at least playing a sport . You're running , but you're not thinking about it right here we go right here .
I thought that came from the Maryland travel . Now you're you're telling about it . Here we go right here . Who is that ? This is Rich Eisen . This is .
Rich Eisen . You're gathering , you're gathering and stepping , and then you get two steps . After what , if you've gathered ? And then you take your step , and then you take two more steps . If I'm Colorado State , I'm counting three steps .
That's not what he did .
I thought that was a clear point . No , he didn't travel .
I slow-mo'd watch that , literally 15 times . And he caught it , step , step , step , it was travel For sure he had it on his left hip with his left hand . Kid's incredibly talented . I know Maryland fans are just like can we just finally get a break here ? I'm fine with this play . He took three steps . Dude . Nobody calls traveling , quite honestly , anywhere .
Is it because I'm getting older ? Is that what it is ?
Yes , he sound like us .
Dude .
I need to see you later . Sure three steps .
In my opinion . I mean , I think , a lot of people . Because I saw it live and I said he took three steps .
Yes , I didn't see it live . I had to go back and watch the replay .
I saw it live and I said he took three steps . Yes , I didn't see it live . I had to go back and watch the replay . I saw it live and I said he took three steps . I was like he traveled Bucket good Game over . I'm like you allowed two steps right , two steps with the gatherer , but again I don't . That's why I'm sitting on the couch watching it .
Jed , we need you back on the show to explain this gather step . I can say , man , we might have to have him back on before , Because when is the championship ? April 7th Next week yeah , so next weekend is the Final Four , yep , and then .
Okay , so like the fifth and the sixth , or would it be the fifth because they both play on the same night , right , yeah , so it would be the fifth and the seventh . Okay .
Yeah , so Saturday and Monday night .
Yeah , dog , that's . Hey , I'm going to tell you this . It looked like he traveled to me .
Oh , he 100% traveled . But I'm going to tell you this it looked like he traveled to me . Oh , he 100% traveled .
But I'm sitting up here and you would think well , now that Maryland is in the Big Ten you'd think I'd root for him or something . But I was like no , that's still a travel .
They got their natural ass whooped yesterday .
I didn't see any games . They lost to , was it Alabama ?
Yeah , it was Alabama .
That's when they hit the 25-3 .
I think it was Alabama .
Man , them cats was on fire . Hold on , let me . Where's the ? Hey , I'm going to tell everybody to go . It's the . Uh . Hey , I'm gonna tell everybody to go . Uh , it's this song . When I looked at the comments , everybody kept saying we're here because of TikTok . So I guess I don't have TikTok , so I guess it must be a big thing on TikTok what's that ?
but it's that I Just Want to Be your Girl by well , tidra Moses actually is her lyrics , and I wish I knew dude's name , but shout out to him . He mashed up Tidra Moses , be your Girl with Luxurious from Gwen Stefani , which is obviously sampled from Between the Sheets the Isley .
Brothers , the Isley Brothers , yep .
Now I'm going to tell y'all how I'm going to get my Ohio thing off . If I'm not mistaken , I think the Isley Brothers might be from Ohio . I got to do at least one to show , I think . So I'm about to Google it right now . Somebody's from Ohio that one of the Isley brothers is from Ohio . Man , wouldn't they both have to be .
I mean , I would think they both have to be right One of them could have been born in Kentucky , I don't know .
Oh damn you right again .
They're from Ohio , right ? Yeah , here we go Yep , ronald Vernon and . Rudolph Isley started their music career in Ohio , Cincinnati , Ohio , performing gospel .
Ronald Jasper Isley . I think they were called Isley Jasper Isley because they had somebody know Jasper Isley . I think they were called Isley Jasper Isley Because they had somebody named Jasper . But shout out to them Because it was their beat from Between the Sheets .
And no matter what song you sample Between the Sheets Computer Love , any slow jam that you sample , i'ma like the song . You can be sitting up here talking about me , my family , real real bad . And if it has like a real real nice beat like computer love , I'm like damn they be like man he killing you . I'm like I know , but that's my jam .
Though you got the computer love beat . You know computer love done been on a whole bunch of . Yeah , computer love's been on a lot of yeah .
I like them all .
I wonder what they have to , what the royalties are when they sample .
They say back in the day they ain't used to have to get clearance , and don't hold me to it . But this is just a little knowledge I do have from listening to the R&B Money podcast . Oh yeah , no , now I think you have to get clearance .
Everything sounds like something Like now . Yeah , because it's almost impossible . I would think it's almost impossible to come up with your own beat that hasn't been done , yeah , or something similar to that .
Like man , I hear a song sometimes and like I really consider myself well , you know , I don't really want to say I'm a music head , but then I know I'm a slow jam junkie . I know for sure I'm a slow jam , I absolutely love slow jams . And I hear like a little bit of a song . I'm like oh that's .
And then be like , oh man , that ain't even a song , but you can tell it's not sampled or nothing , but I guess . However , it is like the beat . It just seemed like it's starting to go , and then I was like oh man , I thought this was this song .
You know how sometimes you'd be listening to the radio or whatever streaming platform and something random comes on and you think it's one song , but it's something else . I can't stay so like trying to think what's a good ?
It's a good , it's a key swing , there was a , there was a sampled it or somebody sampled the twist it , yeah , twist it , it was something , yeah , and I was like man , I was about to bump , and it was something else it was something , man , that'd be making me mad as hell be like hey , play the other version .
I'm like , let me get the other version but then you're like oh okay okay , but , uh
¶ Music Royalties and Syndication

Because what baggy starting to come back now ? Oh , like baggy clothes .
Baggy clothes yeah .
Baggy , jeans baggy . Everything is starting to come back . I'm trying to think what else have I seen recently come back ? More like the 90s , early 90s .
I know I see some of the , you know like the old school , kind of like the old school button-up shirts . I mean it seemed like I don't know kind of like with the print . Oh yeah , yeah , yeah , it seemed like I see some of that stuff coming back . Yeah , that stuff , man it is .
You don't think about it and you start thinking like Damn , the few jeans I had I should have just put up . Jordan ass jeans You're like man , I ain't gonna never wear these .

Man , I wish I kept some Carl Caniz and cross-cut .
You be stylish now . Hey , I told you my classic story . I remember my very first credit card . It was at the time . It was Bank One , which is Chase . Now , okay , at a $300 limit . I remember how they be on college , they be on campus . So you sitting up here , I give the card $300 . I'm like , oh damn , $300 . I remember I was on scholarship .
Really couldn't work . But you got to pay $10 a month . I'm like I can afford $10 a month . Come on now , hey , what I tell people with some of these stories . I tell Jody sometimes , Because a lot of times when we look at some of these young kids , we're telling them from a place of like where we are right now .
You got to think , hey , we were at that spot at one point too .
I'm not giving advice but , I'm just saying like okay , well , that's the conversation I have with my kids all the time it's like I was your age . Yes , I understand . Times are different . Access you have a lot more access to things now .
But I was still your age , so like I know , yeah women yeah , like things you're thinking uh-huh , I was right there too , with you and I you know , I know that little it's funny because my parents used to tell me that little breeze .
I'm like , I'm trying to think at what age do your dicks out , getting Like when the wind blow ? Remember a chick used to just talk dirty to you and your dick get hard ?
I think right around puberty , so about 13 , 14 .
Damn . But then you get older and you got to do a little more talking . You be like no you got to touch it . You be like , oh for real , really , really Dysfunction you gotta touch it , you got .
Oh , for real , really here right this function here .
Kiss it . Oh man , that kissing ain't working , then just put the tip in , that's gonna work for sure . All right , I know we got sidetracked , but I don't even know what to tell us . What was we talking about ? We were talking about fashion .
Fashion music Mix-ups , mash-ups , clearing mix .
Oh , you're getting stuff like it . Yeah , dude , I want to know how do these dudes get paid , man ? I don't know how do these dudes get paid , man ? If , so , if , because you can write one line on a song , and I can write one line , you get paid . But how do they determine ? It's a percentage , right , like , you go to work , you know what you did .
Yeah , so I go to work . I know what I did , yeah , but so now let's say you know what you did . Yeah , so I go to work . I know what I did , yeah , but so now let's say you know , since we talk about the R&B money podcast , we got , uh , jay Valentine didn't wrote some stuff , tank didn't wrote some stuff .
I probably did like a little ad lib or him . You did some stuff , your brother , and then steve did something , but how ?
I don't know I got yeah , I never really understood yeah , that's why I never understood that you want credit yeah , right , right listen on a on a track or a song so even if you listen on a , on a track or a song , so even if you like how you were just singing , okay , let's say , key sweat , uh , there's a right and a wrong way to love somebody .
I came up with that . So you came up with , okay , let's say you may be young but you're ready . And then Steve came up with like oh no , no , no , whatever you know how the song goes how in the hell do we all get paid ?
then I've never fully understood how you go to work . You have a project .
Okay , I did a site visit . I go to work . Here's my account . This is what I did . That's visit . I go to work . Here's my account . This is what I did . That's it . I'm like man . Yeah , lebron James , dr J , we know they work , we watching them on TV , yeah , yeah , but like when you a writer , yeah , and I don't know .
And I mean , obviously they making a lot of money because they doing something .
Someone's making a lot of money . Yeah , that's crazy .
I guess is it just built on an honor system .
It must be , they must .
But cats know , because if you knew I did , there's a right and a wrong way , so now that's what I did . There's a right in the wrong way you came up with to love somebody . So now we both getting paid cause I came up with right in the wrong way , to love somebody . Then they come up with some other lyrics .
Joe and Steve , you like man , you like what in the ? Hell . And then let's just say Jess , for instance , make the beat , and so this is what Google AI came up with .
Ah here we go . It says song royalties , encompassing both writers and publishers' shares , are typically split , based on agreements between songwriters , publishers and producers , with percentages negotiated and often outlined in contracts or split sheets . So how do they determine that percentage ? Right ?
so I did hear one of them dudes talk about make sure you keep your sheets or something , so I guess I equate the sheets to being a time card almost . Let's say I punch in at 9 . I punch out at 5 . So them sheets must be like no , this is what I contributed , man , I know somebody Then got dead dirty .
Oh yeah , they talk about it all the time how people get dead dirty , especially when you write , when they yeah . Stop signing these contracts , these music contracts .
And then you , you sit up here you hear the song . You be like Writing the wrong way . Wait , wait , wait . I came up with that . Yeah , I don't get it . So now you got to sue .
So if multiple songwriters are involved , they must agree on how the writers share . Their royalties will be divided , so that has to be an agreement . So me , you , steve Joe , I come up with 70% of the song , you come up with right and wrong way , which is 20% of the song . So , that's 90 , right . And they come up with Love somebody that's 10 , right .
So you know what I'm saying . So We'll break it up like that . Break it up like that . So it's probably based on the majority .
And when it's paid out You'll get like to 70 yeah .
Okay , so that's God .
Yeah , I know that's crazy , I know , so it's .
But then I know that's crazy , I know so . But then how do I wonder how they get paid off of features ?
that see , I think with features you just pay them like so you're .
Bosco , you come in , hey man , I need you to feature on my album and then I'll be like $20,000 .
Yeah , I'm like okay , give me $20,000 .
it's a set feature , but what if that song ? So it must be , because a lot of features go number one are platinum .
I think that might have to be in a contract .
So if that song goes platinum , I'm featuring on it , so I'm getting 30% of that or whatever , because that feature could just be like a because , just like a one-time fee .
I'm just thinking like old town , bro .
What's the name ? Little nazi ?
oh , man , you know what I'm saying .
That was the biggest song for a year and a half that's money for the rest of their life . Exactly that one song , so you got . You got little naz X and Billy Ray Cyrus . Yep , billy Ray Cyrus . So I know Lil Nas X made the majority of it Right right . Billy Ray didn't come on to the remix .
Right .
But it was the remix that really blew it up , even more right ?
Yeah , no , that's true .
So you know that song made him enough money for the rest of his life . Right , I know that one song .
I'm like man , so then billy came on it I just think , if you had a , I'm telling you I'm . I'm just curious , I don't know why would like different professions or different lines of work as far as like , like . Okay , so now we know NBA , they get paid every two weeks , every two weeks . Nfl , every week , every week .
I think baseball is paid twice a month , like I think Furs and 15th , whatever . I think they pay like twice a month or whatever .
But Baseball contracts are all guaranteed . Oh yeah , yeah , yeah , they need to fix that , but no , they don't want to .
That's insane but then you sit up here like how you was just saying . So , let's say , I was on friends , so how do I get ?
paid every couple weeks .
Do I get paid every couple ?
weeks , I think they get paid for an episode . Do I get paid once a month ?
No , I'm saying remember it's over now , yeah yeah .
So how am I paying right now ? Oh now , based off the royalties that they're making from those . So it's probably , I bet you , they probably get like a monthly check , duh , so they're probably getting something monthly , Whereas you probably get like a monthly check , duh , so they're probably getting something monthly , whereas you know if it airs so many times ?
Yeah , you know . They keep track of how many times it airs . Friends , probably airs a hundred times a month , right , probably ?
so you can you can probably find it right now .
Yeah , on something so if they , and then they probably get a percentage of how many , how much that airs . So if it's you , cents a show , ten cents a show a dollar , a show , whatever then they probably .
Hey , I'm telling you , man listen .
That's why they say that .
I'm going to come out the box right now and y'all can call me an underachiever , because if you sit up here and and you give me , let's just say I get a a hundred , a hundred fifty thousand a month , I'm not doing anything else , I'm not doing anything else . I'm not doing nothing else , no .
Nothing , not a Sitting on my Black ass .
No , I'm not sitting up here like I mean , besides , you know , the regular stuff you normally do . I'm not trying to Double my money . I'm sitting up here like I'm gonna get A hundred and fifty thousand dollars A month For the rest of my life , all right .
So this is what Google AI says the Friends cast members reportedly earn each earn around oh , I'm going to give you a guess Annually .
Oh , like now Annual yeah , Five million .
You're a little off . Each earn around $20 million annually in syndication income , or 2% of the show's $1 million annual revenue . They're making $20 million a year . Show in syndication .
Listen , I'm not doing anything . Hold on , I want to know how much Martin makes . Listen , I'm not even . You know , I'm not even a lazy person . But that's why I said I'm going to let y'all know right now . Call me an underachiever , because and I'm not talking about volunteering , I'm not , we're not talking about . I'm talking about anything else to make money .
I'm not going to get another job . They be like oh , denzel , I want you to be in training day , part six . No , I'm straight , I'm straight , I'm getting $20 million to chill . Nah , I'm straight , I'm straight , I'm getting $20 million to chill .

It just doesn't relate to us .
But I do also know that they took from what Single Ladies ? Well , what was it called ? Living Single , living Single , yeah , yeah , I agree About the same exact thing . Now , I did watch that .
They don't .
Yeah , I don't know what it is . I heard Friends was cool , but it just really wasn't .
It's $100,000 per episode , but it doesn't say nothing about it .
And it can't say nothing about white shows , because , shit , I watch Facts of Life , Even though I know Tootie was on there .
But Sheena Arnold only made $25,000 a show .
That's how much she made .
I mean , that's good money but it's that Tisha made $40,000 a show and Martin made $100,000 .
Hey , didn't wasn't .
Tommy and Oak Cole . Brown Cole . Carl Pan only made $15,000 per episode . Did he how much did Tommy make ? Tommy made $25,000 .
But I think Martin was some other character than his name . Yeah , but it was Martin too , yeah .
Damn , they did get the shower . I don't think they get syndication money either . Damn , Because it says something about she's trying to buy back her royalties or Damn . They did get the shit out of her . I don't think they get syndication money either . Damn , because it says something about she's trying to buy back her royalties , or something like that .

The fact that Marvel and Disney got rid of him because he was supposed to play Kang yeah , which was a big role in the MCU .

So you like the cop shows , so like you like .
Like it started way back with FBI and all those types of all those and it's so funny because I haven't watched none of the new ones I should have . But so you know I watched SWAT . It started way back when I was a kid . I watched Chips . I used to watch Hawaii Five-0 .
Okay , I'm just saying you know they were , but you think about it like everything was either a cop show , a crime scene show or like a crime starsky and hutch or a doctor show . Yeah , right so like er something like that you know so everything was you know .
Then you had your sitcoms , which were the comedy shows yeah yeah , but all your dramas were you were like cop shows or medical shows , right ? So that's all you had to watch . Everything else wasn't yeah . Yeah , because I mean they had like to watch it you're like office .
Yeah , yeah , like yo yo yo nighttime yeah nighttime soap opera like falconrest and Dynasty and all that .
