The news about Jake Paul fighting Mike Tyson live on Netflix surprised us, and we definitely have thoughts on how this is all gonna play out, but what do you think?

Transcript

Sonic cast time with people that you girl sona what's that? Hey? Hey, you play a fight in the GEP biz. So let's talk about this fight, right, because it just dropped down that there is a planned fight at at and T Stadium nonetheless in Arlington, Texas, where it's the home of the Dallas Cowboys. This fight is going to go down between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, and the debates have been going crazy on social media and

in person since this announcement was made. I mean, the simple statement of Jake Paul and Mike Tyson in a ring shouldn't even go together, Like, there's no way you should be able to say those two names in the same sentence. But apparently live on Netflix July twentieth, it's about up a spectacle. Rah. I'm laughing at the comments already. Somebody said, Jake Paul ain't even worthy. Whooped that ass trick? Whoa who that trick? That's I mean, come on, bro, Mike Tyson maybe old what fifty eight

years now? You're fifty eight years old, you know, still doing some small boxing here and there. Jake Paul twenty seven, still been trying to do his thing, but it's it feels like all his fights are just like gimmicks. I don't I can't say I necessarily take him serious. Yeah, I mean, here's my theory. Obviously, I feel like Tyson is behind

this entire thing. I don't know how many people can really convince. I mean, Jerry's not desperate for money, but you got to be a homie for him to be like, yeah, you want to use Cowboys standio, no problem. So somebody really big is tied into this whole thing, and I'm guessing it's Tyson, and he's probably gonna take an ill because he's making big bag on it. Anyway, Like that thing is gonna be full. People aren't gonna want to see Mike Tyson again. It's really gonna boil down

to that. You know, is he older? Yes? Does he train? Yes? Is Jake Paul like pretty good as a fighter surprisingly to everyone? Yes? All right, see how it goes. But what I know is, even if it is a setup, and we know a lot of sports are entertainment, wrestling, boxing, I feel like it is if one accidental two piece that's all we need lands correctly shoot a one piece A drumstick

lands on Jake Paul's face. I don't know if he's gonna make it out of their lives, like it's gonna have to be, you know, dancing on eggshells in there, because Tysan's gonna probably have to hold back some of that power. He might get winded. A lot of people feel like Jake Paul's gonna wind him out and you know whatever. Sure that might be part of the plan, but again, an accidental boom that might be a problem.

That's all you need and to think, okay, well, yeah, Mike Tyson's older again, like you said, there sonag the man is still training religiously. If you haven't seen him in action lately, I mean his training videos make me a little a little sweamish. Mike is in there, stand trading partner up now, I'm gonna give you some stats. Jake Paul height six' one, reach seven to six, so he definitely has the height advantage on Mike. And yes, thirty years younger. But Mike Tyson

is an animal, still just wild. The man sits down and has a podcast every daymn week and you can see the fire still burning in his eyes. That's iron Mike bruh. Yeah, period, And let's not forget the almighty earbindings. Don't let him get lost in the sauce and start having flashbacks, cause it might be a problem matter. I got a whole full bag of them gummies that he put out with the half bitten ear at the crypt. They're good. I'm not mad at So we'll see what happens with the

fight. I definitely wish I could be in the building. I don't know, you know these promoters out here. If y'all are tapped in, please let us know. We will take a flight hopefully that you pay for Man, and we will be in the building covering it with media, making sure you get more people to tune in, because it's gonna be pretty epic, regardless of whether it's a you know what, do they call him exhibition fight or not or whatever, which it absolutely has to be Man for sure.

Hell, even if it might take a dive, its gonna be a big fight period. Let's not play with it. Y I'm talking about though, and huge for Netflix. I mean what this is what their third third time doing actual a live sporting event. First time they're diving into the world of boxing, So that's humongous for streaming sites. This is gonna be pretty. It's gonna be an epic night. Man for real, for real. I just want to be at the Cowboys stadium. I haven't been there yet.

How the hell has our producer been inside that stadium. He ain't even a Cowboy fan. You know, you're not even a sports fan, period. Come on. So it's kind of disappointing, but I'd go for this. Yeah, man, So again July twentieth, everybody's gonna be locked and loaded on Netflix and see what's popping. Team Tyson. Let's go so locally here in the Bay Area, and I know people you know across the globe deal with different types of crime and whatever might be suppressing your people. And here

it's like the jobs keep disappearing. I guess food stamps running out or not enough for y'all selling them all for cash and doing other things. A big thing for us here is just people looting these stores, just walking into either clothing stores and grocery stores. I talked to my homegirl, Donna, shout out to her. She works at my Safeway. And there is no age, shape, color, gender to these people that walk into the grocery store, fill up a bag or eat inside. And just dump it and leave.

And it's just getting absolutely crazy. Like when I walk in and I'll have a conversation with her. I think she was asking me about some stuff that was going on with her housing situation, because you know, i'd do real estate. Now y'all need me let me know. But you know, she was like, man, she's just evil eyeing the people. It's like she knows who they are when they come in already, either their second to third or fourth or fifth time offenders, or she just recognizes the profile.

And I remember specifically this time, I was a young really young man high school or opening up a big bag and I was like, maybe he's just shopping for his mom, Donna. He was like, she was like, nah, he's about to go fill that bag up and walk out. Watch And I didn't follow it till the end. And he looked well put together, you know, how to fit it at on some jays, you know, windbreaker whatever. He looked fine. So I mean not that it has a look. And he even says old people, old women, old men,

they'll come in. They probably are living on Social Security and they, I guess can't afford it. So we had a girl an employee recently here in the Bay Area that you know, took it upon herself to go ahead and try to intervene a person from stealing. It got a little physical right between her and another employee and this person who was stealing, and they cut her. But there is that law in place that you're not supposed to intervene

with any shoplifters. And I think the saddest part for me is, you know, she got released under misconduct and so because of that, she can't receive any unemployment. So it's just like I care as a shopper, Like I'll say, shit, I'm gonna talk shit to you if I see, oh you gotta do that, huh, all right, don't let that karma come kick you in the ass later, Like I'll say stuff like that.

But I also understand that the prices are so god dang high. Even a loaf of bread's like five something sometimes for the you know whatever, So it's nuts. I just hope that this woman finds a way because she's gotten a turning now, yeah, you know, And it's sad when you see the law protect the criminals more than it does the folks who are here trying to do right. You know, And it's a situation like this that reminds you,

that puts you in your mind. Now, you know, I don't personally know Anternet shout out to you there, baby six filthy original as well. But you know, I'm just like you don't know what her situation. When this woman might have kids at home, you know what I mean, she might have folks and family who depend on her, you know, to get up and go to work every day. And now you're literally just throwing her to the wolves, saying we're gonna take away any and all means of

you being able to bring any money in. You can't even collect unemployment like this is terrible, like literally and for what because somebody wanted to come in and try to walk out with over five hundred dollars worth of groceries. Hell, they're trying to change the law right now, so that would become a felony. So for right, So for folks who are living in this gray area, you know what I mean, how you supposed to number one,

have a moral compass. Number two, do right by the law. Number three, hold on to your damn job and not be frustrated at the system. It's just it's it's it's it's tearing us apart, man, and I understand how hard this, how hard this must be, and how much of m I just tear us apart to her, her family apart as well, because this is its sad bro. And on the other end, it's like these grocery store employees are watching locations closed, yes, because they can't,

you know, make the numbers work. They're like, okay, we're allowing people to walk out with bags of groceries. I think this particular person that she, you know, they ended up getting and so they saw how much they took. It was like five hundred dollars worth of groceries, which you might be joking and be like, oh well that was a thing, a try tip and a loaf of bread. It was five hundred bucks, because that's how the prices feel nowadays. But you know, if they continue to

go through that, they're going to continue to close stores. And what we're gonna do without any grocery stores accessible, We're gonna have to go across town where they call it the good neighborhood, or wherever the case may be, because they haven't initiated all these receipt checking things. In all the locations yet and that probably costs a company more money as well. So sure she was protecting herself, her place of employment, her family, her you know,

job. Like it's just you know, sad that she's being treated this way. The least they could do is change the description of why she was released because misconducts. She's not gonna be able to get any money from the government, and I would hope that at some point he finds another job, because we're tired of paying them unemployments too, telling you that's saxpayer dollars and that's

all it's hurting is the folks who actually pay their take exactly. Yeah, So I mean, I don't know, man, We're in a bad place. I say this to people all the time, like the stuff that we're seeing, the looting, the robbing, the armed robberies. You know, fools is pulling over in front of fools on the road on a freeway, either taking their car, taking their purse out of the car, just a

violence. Shoot. I think one of the saddest things for me was just watching that ice cream man that balleta man just get padded down by a couple of teenagers and it's not getting any better out here and homeless population, like you know, after COVID, we thought COVID was bad. We can't get back on our feet. No, So it's scary to think about. You know. People tell me, oh, I'm going to start a family. I was like, don't have no kids. Are you paying attention to what's

going on right now? Like I'm worried about my teenager and what it's going to look like. Shoot, we might move out state one day, I mean, because California is hitting us over the head as taxpayers, you know, to try to keep things alive, and yet a lot of the issues that we have aren't getting taken care of. So we're shutting down schools, we're shutting down retail stores, and nobody coming down to San Francisco no more.

We're losing conventions and gatherings. Like it's just insane. So I don't know it's gonna you know, I talked about it with boss Man one time, our boss over here at iHeart, and he was like, it's gonna take at least ten years for us to fix everything that's wrong. Yeah, I mean, it's a shit show. We're living in Grand theft autto It's what it is. And it's again, it's sad that the people who are paying the most are the ones that are sitting right right in the middle,

you know, the hard working the use of the middle class. I'm here, you know, the folks who have sat there like, why, you know, I did everything my family told me, so, I went to school, I did this, I did that. Now I'm still trying to figure out how to rob Peter to pay Paul. And that's where we are, man, And it's you know, it is terrible. And I feel like just kind of echoing what you said around these folks who are working these

hard jobs, and it's like you're just seeing doors closed everywhere. Well, what happens to these folks who are employed over there at the in and out off of Haggenberger. Now they got a hope that they have a job at the Alameter location. The folks who are working at the Denny's over there off of Heggenberger, they got a hope that they'll open their doors for them over there in San Leandro. And it continues to it just continues to happen all

throughout this area. And it's like, you know, amen, can we get a break somewhere, gas going up, rent still high as hell,

mortgage rates ridiculous yet and still my pay ain't seen a bump. And this is the This is the this is the consistent story for too many families out here, and it's like, where is the relief, and don't we don't need it in the form of, you know, a couple of relief checks though, thank you, Gavin, we appreciated those, h but we need a long term, sustainable change to actually happen, to be able to make this area liveable for those fools who are still gonna be out here committing crimes

no matter what. We need. We need some more honestly legal attention, which you would rarely hear me say, but absolutely we need to do some about this damn crime. They can't do anything. I was talking to the homie DJ black Mark out here in the city. They can't chase nobody. They're they're gonna start deploying drones and that because that'll be the answer. I don't know what they're thinking, man, I guess to at least get facial

recognition and also license plate follow them home. They're gonna stop somewhere at some point. True, So you know, shoot, We're gonna have people shooting up in the sky now, shooting at drones so they don't get caught. Like, what's what's gonna happen. So I feel like there's a lot of ideas and theories and whatever that are roaming around out there and the powers that be, and this is just this is a big part of why we need to vote. And we just had primary and nobody showed up for it.

So the tendons for the voting polls was really low astronomically. Yeah, and I don't know how many people mailed in. I did mine last minute and dumped it off in one of the you know, one of the stations. And I know a lot of people are under the impression like our vote doesn't count, it don't matter anyway, Well, it really don't matter if you don't shoot right, like you don't you miss all the shots you don't take

right. So whether it's true or not, still do your part as a US citizen, a resident of California and put your votes in because these people are going to be the ones that are going to be defining how we move forward. I mean, it's honestly, it's your civil duty and for a lot of y'all that might not mean nothing, but that means somebody actually had to go ahead and die and fight for you to be able to vote.

And you know, it's terrible when you look at it, especially because the main I think source that people forget about in these primaries, especially is you're voting on folks who literally have something to do with where you live. Yes, we all looked and just see exactly what's going on with the real election. You might even look as far as to say, well, who could possibly, you know, be the senator coming up here in twenty twenty four,

But how about those local elections. Most of y'all don't even know who your congress person is for your local district. You don't know exactly who sits on the chair or the board of directors for your school board. You don't know these folks who literally have a day to day impact on how your children and your family live. That's why it's important. Voting on a local level should be imperative, especially if you have kids or people that you care about

in your household. Period. So get out and vote. Always say this. People are real good at complaining. Oh for sure, are you an expert you complain every day prices and this and my job and I'm this, and I can't you know landlord and blah blah blah. A lot of the issues that we, you know, have, you can let your voice be heard about it, but you got to read the propositions and you got to know about I mean, we can only know so much about some of these

candidates, true, but you know, just trust your gut. I guess if somebody's really speaking on something that moves you, you might want to step forward and support that person or deny the ones that don't really be talking about what you agree with. Like that's just how it works. But you got to pay attention. Like I said in the mail the other day, for one of these, I think it was a senator. I got a freaking flyer with a freaking pentagon and a fucking or a fuck Oiji pard On,

it are you sing? And I don't know if that was just his form of trying to get attention. He might have been a Christian candidate or something. But I was like that, that's not going to do it for me. I guess I get where you're going, But now I'm scared. And you put this in my mailbox. So nah, I'm not messing with what you're talking about. So we do have to protect ourselves and our families, our kids, because we're gonna leave them all this shit. Yeah, like

you know, we're in the prime, we're watching it. They have to figure out how to dig themselves out of it. Yeah, so it's important to uh, you know, just represent yourself and your family correctly. Just care, man, that's it. Just take a second to care, you know, absolutely, Caring is sharing. Yeah, you know, just just give a damn people and try to be better. Please, Yeah, you know, that's all it's about. And for those of you all like well,
