This is a podcast where three friends, 8 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:15,360 co-workers, and coffee industry professionals get together every other week. And we explore the 9 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:24,960 beautiful globe that we live upon through the lens of coffee. We talk about anybody and anything. 10 00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:31,280 Sometimes we'll name the person, sometimes we won't. That's a new thing. Sometimes we'll tell you to 11 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:37,600 Google it. We're name dropping today, big time. Or sometimes we have a really fun episode about a 12 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:43,440 really fun person. And that's today. I'm Jenny and I run the operations at a coffee company called 13 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:50,800 Modest Coffee. And I'm Marcus and I am co-founder of Modest Coffee, Good Food Award winning coffee 14 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:59,920 roaster and Santa isn't real. Oh man, we should, we're going to have to insert like a, like a 15 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:04,720 one of those, if you're driving with a kid in the car warnings. No, don't just leave that for them. 16 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:12,480 If you're driving with kids in the car, go back in time three minutes and tell them to close their 17 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:20,400 ears. We never said we were a kid friendly podcast. If anybody like allows their kids to listen to 18 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:29,840 this amount of swearing. Well, I question your parenting decisions. Domino motherfuckers, what's 19 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:35,760 happening? I'm Stephanie. Oh, is this like a new phrase we're going to learn today? Domino 20 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:41,520 motherfucker. This is what I'm doing today. Hell yes. Sugar. Just a little hint about today's episode. 21 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:46,320 I'm excited to learn more about this phrase that I may incorporate into my daily life. I'm just 22 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:55,440 trying to drop as many phrases from his first album as I can into today's episode. That is my 23 00:02:55,440 --> 00:03:02,880 whole plan. I've written an entire episode around just being able to use these ridiculous 24 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:08,640 phrases. Amazing. They're not ridiculous when he says them, but I guarantee when I say them. 25 00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:13,760 And if somebody has picked up on domino motherfuckers reference, you just won the prize. 26 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:19,600 The prize. You won a prize. I assume though that they read the title when they clicked play. 27 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:26,000 That's true. We might've had a spoiler. It's okay. We need to stop putting a title. Just episode 72. 28 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:35,040 That's all it is. No description except for our self-promotions. Right. And then it'll just be, 29 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:40,800 this episode is just the title or the definition. What is it? The description is just going to say 30 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:47,840 domino motherfucker. Oh, can it? Can it say that? We should make that. That'll get the clicks. 31 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:55,040 I'll put it like domino motherfucker and then click to hear more. Yeah. All caps. 32 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:02,880 Today we're talking about world-renowned coffee roaster, Calvin Brodus Jr. Ever heard of him? 33 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:11,680 Oh man. I have not, you know, I'm names to faces. I'm not. I heard he won a good food award. Did he? 34 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:17,600 Really? No. I didn't remember. I saw all of them. No, he didn't. But he is famous though. He is very 35 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:22,480 famous. Is he like Salt Bae of coffee roasters? I don't know what Salt Bae is. I don't know what 36 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:27,680 Salt Bae is either. Oh, okay. That's a reference that, you know, some of you listeners might get. 37 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:33,520 He's the guy that like does this with the salt and like the, nevermind. He's like very, very 38 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:42,720 Instagrammy guys. Look him up. Can you tell me his name again? Calvin Brodus Jr. Okay. I thought that 39 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:50,320 there was three names, but Jr. was the third. Okay. Oh, Calvin Kordazar Brodus Jr. Wow. What a name. 40 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:57,440 If you actually want his full name. Oh. But you may know him as Snoop Dogg. Snoop Dogg in the house. 41 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:05,360 What? His coffee is Indo XYZ. Love it. That's an Indonesia reference unless you're, don't assume 42 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,840 it's drugs. No, sorry. There's a fly. Oh, I thought you were clapping me out. No, I'm sorry. I thought 43 00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:13,840 you were like, shut the fuck up. No, I'm sorry. Marcus is like, we don't talk about drugs on this podcast. 44 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,280 This is inappropriate for the children. 45 00:05:19,280 --> 00:05:28,880 Yeah. So I want to say thank you to Snoop, first of all, because unlike certain 46 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:36,160 pop punk bands that we could mention, he does not hide the fact that someone else roasts his coffee. 47 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,320 He does not make you think that he's getting off the tour bus and walking straight into the roastery. 48 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:44,800 Yeah. Right. Thank you for your honesty and up frontness. Thank you for not making me like 49 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:50,080 dig deep to find the roaster. Good job. Like some people did. Yeah. This is, what do they call that? 50 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:56,480 Like a licensing? They license their image? Is this a licensing deal? You know, supposedly he and this 51 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:03,920 guy are like buddies. Okay. And yeah, the coffee roaster we are going to talk about. His name is 52 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:12,240 Michael Riadi and he's an Indonesian guy and he specializes in Indonesian coffee and he does have 53 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:18,000 his own company. And then this is like his joint venture. So this is like the kids explaining this 54 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:25,040 to me. They call that a collab. Oh, yeah. Yeah. What I read about it briefly when we first, 55 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:30,720 when I first found out about this coffee, I read an article about it. Yeah. It's basically this guy 56 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:37,120 who has the Indonesian connection Snoop Dogg wanted to start an Indo company, coffee company 57 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:41,280 or something. So we found somebody who would fit with that. And then the two of them hit it off as 58 00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:46,240 his pals. I feel like Snoop Dogg kind of hits it off with everyone though. Yeah. That's what I was 59 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,080 going to say. I don't know anyone who doesn't want to hang out with Snoop Dogg. Right. And like, I 60 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:56,880 read a lot about Snoop Dogg over the past couple of weeks and I, like, hardly anybody has anything 61 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:02,880 negative to say about him. It's usually like, yeah, people love this guy. It's like tipper gore going 62 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:08,720 after him. Yeah, tipper gore, right. Only one who doesn't like Snoop Dogg. You know, but that's more 63 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:15,200 about his art and less about who he is as a person. Like nobody's really complaining about who he is 64 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:20,160 as a person. He seems like a very stand-up guy to me. Like he seemed like a genuine, 65 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:30,080 like down to earth, like good values type of guy. Like it just seems like he cares about his family. 66 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:39,120 He cares about his businesses. He just cares about like being chill and smoking weed. I mean, 67 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:44,080 that helps to be chill. It does. I mean, he seems to care about that. That seems to be a core value. 68 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:49,200 It is a core value. Yeah. I mean, I get that. But you know, it's like, I don't know, he just seems 69 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:56,400 like a cool dude. Like despite all of his fame and like he could be very pretentious, but he 70 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:01,840 doesn't be. You really get the feeling that like what you see is what you get with that guy. 71 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:08,480 Did you guys see the MTV Cribs? Oh, you know, I looked up a bunch of videos, but not that one. 72 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:15,440 Very, very same thing, like in very modest housing, you know, he was not like, it wasn't crazy, 73 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:20,720 flashy, showy, like a lot of the other MTV Cribs are. And it was just like him like in his boxers, 74 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:27,120 like just kind of chilling, like not like, you know, his family, his kids, you know, wife, long 75 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,760 time wife. Didn't he have like a like a, didn't he have a reality show for a little while back in 76 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:39,200 like the 2000s? So I watched a little clip of his reality show called. I think I watched a few 77 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:44,960 episodes of that. Oh, gosh. Oh, I didn't even write down the name. It's like, um, 78 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:51,520 I feel like daddy's in the name. I feel like daddy's, I don't know, actually daddy's house 79 00:08:51,520 --> 00:09:00,800 feels like something that I just made up. I was most impressed by if it was the, whatever it was 80 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,200 that I watched, it was like a personal look into his life. And I'm assuming it was the reality show. 81 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:10,800 And I was mostly impressed by the fact that him and his wife, like have been together for so long. 82 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:16,960 And then he's just a really family oriented guy and that he just like, whatever he's doing with 83 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:23,920 like the music and the weed smoking and all that, that's part of like his brand. But like who he 84 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:30,800 actually is, is just this guy, like you said, pretty modest house, not flashy, just trying to 85 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:37,840 like live his life and be a family guy. I don't know about not flashy. Um, I didn't, I didn't, 86 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:42,560 I mean, I just did, you know, compared to like people who are driving these like fancy cars and 87 00:09:42,560 --> 00:09:47,760 have these gigantic houses and it's all about the money and the wealth and like, you know, if you 88 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:54,560 were to go in, there are certain people who have reality TV shows where it's all about their wealth. 89 00:09:54,560 --> 00:10:00,960 And for him, my impression was it's all about his family. That's basically what my impression was. 90 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:09,680 I watched a clip of that show and it seemed very scripted. It like annoyed me how scripted it seemed, 91 00:10:09,680 --> 00:10:14,640 but the kids did go into his closet when he wasn't there to steal money out of his jacket 92 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:22,960 pockets, which I thought was funny. And I was amused by his closet, which looks a lot like my 93 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:28,880 closet in that it was not very big and it was packed so full and it was not, you know, it was 94 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:34,960 so full and it was not, you know, it wasn't like this huge room that you walk into that was well 95 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,920 organized with someone else taking care of his laundry and shit. It was just like a closet. 96 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:45,040 A bunch of shit thrown in it. Oh my God. And it was just like all jerseys and fur coats. It was 97 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:51,120 really funny. Oh, see this is what I love. Snoop Dogg is all of us. 98 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:57,760 Great. All right. Snoop Dogg was born in 1971. He's a couple of years older than me. 99 00:10:58,560 --> 00:11:02,160 He's a pretty young guy. Like 51 now. Yeah. 100 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,240 Wow. Did you think he was older? 101 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:09,680 I thought he was 70 for some reason. I mean like 71. I was surprised. 102 00:11:09,680 --> 00:11:12,240 I thought he was like, you know, peers with Bill Cosby. 103 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,120 Wow. Although I guess 50 is getting kind of old these days. 104 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,720 Hey now. I mean, I'm just messing with you. 105 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:26,080 And all of our 50 year old listeners. Sorry. I'm just being a jerk as I approach 50. 106 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:31,280 Wow. Snoop's a young fellow. I think about where I was in life, 107 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:37,280 like driving around in my car, listening to Doggie Style and what I had accomplished at that point. 108 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,640 And he was like world famous. So young. 109 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,360 He accomplished a lot really young. He would have been like 20. 110 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:47,840 He was, I think he was 22 when Doggie Style came out. 111 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:48,880 Wow. That's what I mean. 112 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:54,160 I thought he was older when that happened because so few people get that level of success at 22. 113 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,480 Right. It was extremely 114 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,200 shockingly successful. Especially outside of the, 115 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:04,560 back in the day when you didn't have YouTube to like get people like Justin Bieber famous. 116 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,160 That's right. I did say Bieber on purpose. 117 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:15,600 1971 is also the year that rap was born. 1971. 118 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:22,880 1971. Did they like, did they retroactively say this is when Snoop Dogg was born. So that's when 119 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:27,280 rap was born. No, his essence coming into the world 120 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,880 brought the essence of rap with him. Heralded in a new era in music. 121 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,280 If you believe in souls or whatever, Snoop Dogg's soul brought that into his life. 122 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:44,320 Rap has arrived in this world. His essence arrived in the form of a 123 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:50,160 Jamaican guy in the South Bronx named Kool Herc. Love it. 124 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:54,160 Kool Herc was like playing turntables and rapping over them. 125 00:12:55,680 --> 00:13:02,480 Hip hop started at like block parties. So the South Bronx in the 70s was kind of a 126 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:08,720 disaster. That's a rabbit hole. We don't have to go down, but like literally they talk about like 127 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:14,800 the Bronx was burning. And that's because the city decided to save money by just like taking all the 128 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:21,120 fire stations out of the poor neighborhoods. So the South Bronx was literally like 70% of the 129 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:26,640 apartments in the South Bronx burned down. Shit. In the 1970s. Like I can't even wrap my head 130 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,360 around that number. It's insane. That's crazy. 131 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,280 So like that's what was going on in the background. It was also like the late 70s. 132 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:38,880 You had those rolling blackouts and that Summer of Sam serial murderer guy. 133 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:47,680 You know, let me say the 70s in New York City were generally a fucking dumpster fire in general. 134 00:13:47,680 --> 00:13:50,720 All over New York. I think even like Manhattan too. 135 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,240 Yeah. The whole city. 136 00:13:52,240 --> 00:14:03,120 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So hip hop, the word hip hop used to refer to the parties. Like we're going 137 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:09,040 to go to a hip hop and they were these like big block parties and you'd have these. 138 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:15,280 Maybe like a sock hop, but hip. But hip. That's right. Far less square. That is correct. 139 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:22,640 Yeah. Sure. So this guy, Kool Herc kind of gets the credit for being the first one to like break 140 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:27,600 out turntables and like sample these songs and just like talk over them. He would use the 141 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:32,080 instrumental part of the song. He'd play it over and over and over and he would just kind of talk 142 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:36,320 over it. He used a lot of funk. Like he really liked James Brown. He didn't think that the 143 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:43,600 American audience would get reggae, which is what he really wanted to do. So he was using funk. 144 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,760 Yeah. I guess Scott had not come to the United States really. I'm thinking back, 145 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:54,400 the other reggae that was associated was with Scott. But that was still, it went to England first. 146 00:14:55,200 --> 00:15:03,920 Remember? Right. Maybe he was right. Break dancers. So the break in the music was the part 147 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,640 where the instrumental part was repeated and no one was rapping and people would dance during 148 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:13,920 the break. And that's where the term break dancing came from. I didn't know that. That's 149 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:22,640 also James Brown and a few songs like Kick It To The Break. Yeah. That's when the musicians 150 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:32,960 go fucking nuts too. The solos or whatever. Yeah. Grandmaster Flash heard Kool Herc and he 151 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:40,400 started doing the same thing, but a little weirder. Like he was playing records backwards. He was 152 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:46,080 scratching them up more. He was just like adding his own twist to it, but he couldn't rap. So he 153 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:54,080 got together with a band, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. They released a song in 1979 154 00:15:54,080 --> 00:16:01,360 called We Rap More Mellow. They were called the Younger Generation at that point. And that is not 155 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:06,400 credited with being the first official rap song. At first they didn't think you could record rap. 156 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:12,320 You can't record it. It's like- So it's like in the moment. It's like part of it is being in this 157 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:18,880 group of people outside at a cookout or a barbecue or whatever, a block party. Yeah. Just rapping. 158 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:24,800 It's meant to be, yeah, in the moment. It's like you're feeling the moment. A lot of it was 159 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:29,280 freestyle. They weren't coming with written lyrics. They were just saying whatever popped into their 160 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,600 head in the moment. It's like particle physics. As soon as you observe it, you fucking ruin 161 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:41,200 the whole experiment. That's right. It was actually a woman. First time rap has ever been compared to 162 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:47,760 particle physics. See? There you go. You heard it here first. Now I'd like to see a physicist- 163 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:52,720 Just let it flow naturally. I'd like to see a physicist, a cool physicist do a paper on this 164 00:16:52,720 --> 00:17:00,560 now. Yeah. Right? Mm-hmm. Challenge. A challenge. To all of our physicist listeners that are cool. 165 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:07,760 Show how cool you are. All of you. There was another song that also, 1979 was like the year. 166 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:15,520 There was the first song that came out in 1979 in March was called King Tim the Third by the Fat 167 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:21,440 Back Band. That was originally an instrumental song that they had someone rap over at the last 168 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:28,480 minute. That was like maybe officially the first rap song. Then this Grandmaster Flash song came 169 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:37,760 out. Then the Sugar Hill Gang came out with Rapper's Delight. That's considered the first 170 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:42,720 successful rap song. That's the first one they got radio play. That's the one that people heard of. 171 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:49,680 That one is still a fucking jam. It is. Yeah. It's pretty funny. Yeah. There was a woman producer 172 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:57,680 named Sylvia Robinson who insisted on recording the song. She really was instrumental in making rap 173 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:03,680 a thing. Hell yeah. Yeah. Way to go. Sylvia, good job. I wish I knew more about her, but that was 174 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,520 one of those rabbit holes that I didn't go down. It's okay. I'm trying to limit myself. It's okay. 175 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,440 So you know- Marcus says he needs to do less editing. 176 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:18,000 Oh my God. That won't make it in the episode. You should leave it. Leave it. I'm challenging 177 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:24,960 you to leave it. For all those people who listen and are like, you guys sound so good. Yeah. 178 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:29,680 That's because Marcus cuts out all of our bullshit. We are actually here for like four hours every 179 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:35,120 time. You only get an hour. It's all good. It's all good. You know, we're just hanging out. That's 180 00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:39,040 what happens when three friends, coworkers, and coffee industry professionals get together every 181 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:47,680 other week. Yeah. So the 80s were big for rap, but Gangster Rap was just starting to like appear. 182 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:57,360 1984 Run DMC, 1987 Public Enemy and LL Cool J. But it was like, it was actually Ice T in 1986, 183 00:18:57,360 --> 00:19:02,800 who gets a lot of credit for Gangster Rap. He was kind of like the first successful one, 184 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:09,600 heavily influenced by a guy named Schooley D out of Philadelphia. I just think it's so funny that 185 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:16,960 Ice T is like a detective on SVU for so many years now. I just like for some reason it just, 186 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,520 it makes me laugh. It does. Like that juxtaposition. Like I can't even imagine him being a Gangster 187 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,920 rapper because he's just Agent Finn. Yeah. I just think of him as like a cop now. Yeah. That's 188 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:31,760 pretty fucked up Ice T. He ended up in one of my playlists and it was like him like rapping about 189 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:38,320 his like, there was a really rough like upbringing about his mom. And yeah, it was pretty brutal. 190 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:42,800 Yeah. Yeah. When Gangster Rap first came out and people started calling it Gangster Rap, 191 00:19:43,360 --> 00:19:49,360 the actual rappers were like, this is reality rap. We're not trying to pretend to be something 192 00:19:49,360 --> 00:19:54,560 we're not. We're trying to actually tell our story of what it's like to live here and 193 00:19:55,440 --> 00:20:00,480 be young and black and male. And it wasn't easy. I'm sure it's still not. 194 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:05,760 Well, that's what gets me too. Sometimes you'll hear people like probably mostly like old white 195 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:10,480 ladies who are like rap music and blah, blah, blah. They're talking about things like blah, blah, 196 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:15,280 blah. I'm like, but that's the reality of some people. And if you don't like it, like why don't 197 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:22,480 you, why don't we think about how do we help change people's realities as a society rather than just 198 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,720 being like, well, they're blah, blah, blah. No, these are the people, this is how people live. 199 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:32,560 You sound like somebody who's gone woke. Both of you. I've done been woke. 200 00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:37,520 I've been awake for a long time. Well, I mean, that's at least 7am. 201 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:49,520 That's the whole point of it. All right. So rap is born and growing. And so is Snoop. He's actually 202 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:55,280 named after his stepfather, this crazy big name. His dad sort of disappeared right at the beginning 203 00:20:55,280 --> 00:21:01,920 and his stepdad was there pretty much from day one. So he has two brothers. He's the middle, 204 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:06,480 he's in the middle of two brothers. His stepdad wasn't around for too long and actually died 205 00:21:07,120 --> 00:21:14,880 really young. And so Snoop was mostly raised by his mom. Wait a second. He's named after a stepdad. 206 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:23,680 I'm a little confused too by how that all works. Because when did the stepdad come after his dad 207 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:29,200 impregnated his mom? I do not have the details on this whole situation. Unless his mom like maybe 208 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:35,280 got knocked up. Maybe Snoop was his, or maybe they added on. I mean, he could have adopted him. 209 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:41,120 All right. Added on. And changed his name. I guess his dad left when he was just like a couple of 210 00:21:41,120 --> 00:21:47,760 months old and his stepdad was always there. That's all I know. Four names gotta come from 211 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,480 somewhere. You gotta talk to his mom if you want the details on the starting and ending point of 212 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:58,800 each relationship. She's probably still alive. When she sends us an email at hello at nobadreviewspodcast.com 213 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:07,600 we'll be sure to report back. We're looking for her clarification. Snoop was born in Long Beach, 214 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:14,480 grew up there. His mom gave him the nickname Snoopy because he loved the Peanuts character Snoopy. 215 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:21,040 That's like the most wholesome fucking name to get the way to get that name. Can we just stop and 216 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:26,080 say Snoop Dogg's fucking wholesome? Yeah, for real. You know what else I learned this week? 217 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:32,800 Is that Suge Knight has that name because his mom called him Sugar Bear when he was little. 218 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:39,120 Suge Knight is not sweet. I know he's not, but that is a very cute way to get a name. I think 219 00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:43,280 it's really funny that these super tough guys are still going by the names their mommies gave them 220 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:49,360 when they were 18 months old. That's so cute. That's pretty common though in the black community. 221 00:22:49,360 --> 00:22:56,080 I think everybody has a nickname given to them by family. Awesome. They're usually cute because 222 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,280 it's like they pick them up when they're kids and then that's the name they always go by. 223 00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:06,080 Yeah, forever. It's so common. Everybody has a nickname. If my son ever makes it as a big rap 224 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:13,280 star his name's going to be little baby chub chub. I hope he doesn't. I'm going to check. 225 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:19,120 Yeah, that rap name already exists. I'm sorry. I'm just going to Google that one. 226 00:23:19,120 --> 00:23:22,480 Arden could be good. Little R. He's gone platinum. Little R. Oh, that's a good one. 227 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,960 That's a good one. Her rap name? Yeah. Yeah. 228 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:31,440 When Snoop was very, very young he was singing and playing piano at their Baptist church. 229 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,920 So musically inclined from a very young age. In a wholesome fucking way too. Yeah. 230 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:41,040 Can't even with this guy. Next thing you're going to tell me he was like a model for Cheerios. 231 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:49,120 Gerber. I was going to say that he did contribute to the family with like cute little jobs. He sold 232 00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:54,320 candy. He delivered newspapers and he bagged groceries and he gave all the money to his mom 233 00:23:54,320 --> 00:24:00,400 to help raise the family. Can we just stop? Isn't he the sweetest? He is. He deserves it. 234 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:08,400 He was a dedicated student. He was an enthusiastic churchgoer. He was active in choir in high school 235 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:13,520 and he played football. Oh, he's very tall and skinny for a football player. Yeah. Isn't that 236 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:20,720 funny? Yeah. He started rapping in sixth grade. I don't know where he picked it up, but he was 237 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:26,080 really good at freestyle. He would just do it in the school hallways all the time. He'd draw such 238 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:31,040 a big crowd that the principal would come running thinking it was a big brawl. But it was just him, 239 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:35,440 like everybody standing around listening to him rap. That's cool. It gave him a lot of self-confidence. 240 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:41,840 He could see that he had a real talent and it made him feel good about himself. He graduated from high 241 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:51,600 school in 1989. He did get involved with the gangs. He's denied that at some point. Yeah, naturally, 242 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:59,840 like you do. Go on record. I don't know. But at some points, I don't know. You grow up there and 243 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:06,560 you hang out with people, right? And you associate. I don't know how you get out of that. Well, part 244 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:11,440 of it too is like- I think he's wrapped about gang stuff too. He's like, crips or bloods or- 245 00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:17,600 He's a crip. He was a rolling 20s crip. They're on the east side of Long Beach. It's part of it too. 246 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:25,280 Gangs that control blocks in certain neighborhoods. So it's like, if you live in this certain block 247 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:31,280 radius, what are you going to do? You're going to associate with the people that are in your 248 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:36,160 neighborhood. And if you're going to associate with somebody outside of the blocks, then you're 249 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:41,440 going to have some problems where you live. So I mean, it just kind of is what it is. I mean, 250 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:48,720 when you grew up around it, it's normal and not necessarily great, but it is what it is. 251 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:59,440 He's getting by, doing the thing. His first arrest is for possession of crack cocaine in 1989. 252 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:04,720 And for the next three years, he was frequently in and out of jail. How old was he then? So in 1989, 253 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:10,800 he was like 18. Yeah, 18 or- Yeah, he graduated in 89. So yeah, it was right after he graduated, 254 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:19,520 was his first arrest. He's had many, many arrests over the years, even up through 2012. 255 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,880 Stooped drugs getting in trouble that late. Was it him and Martha Stewart? 256 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:30,880 His 2012 arrest was in Norway. He brought a very tiny amount of marijuana. 257 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:36,240 Like a pound or something like that? It was under an ounce. It was well under an ounce. 258 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:44,000 It was probably in a pants pocket in a suitcase that he didn't even realize he had. And then 259 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,120 roughly $30,000 in cash in his carry-on bag. Also not acceptable? 260 00:26:49,120 --> 00:26:58,720 And he got to Norway and they were like, oh, you can't do that. I don't know why that rule exists, 261 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:04,080 something to do with money laundering, I assume. But you can't just carry a briefcase full of cash 262 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:08,800 around into foreign countries. On one hand, it is a little fucking weird 263 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,920 because that's a lot of money. It's Snoop. But I was going to say on the other hand, 264 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:18,160 when you're a multi, multi, multi, multi millionaire, or possibly a billionaire, 265 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,040 who knows what Snoop- I didn't look up his net worth, but I will. 266 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:28,000 $30,000 is probably like 30 bucks. He only had like a third of an ounce of weed on him. 267 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,520 He needed that money as soon as he landed. Right, to get more. 268 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:37,920 I guess like, isn't weed legal in Norway? I thought it was legal in most of Europe. 269 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:41,200 Maybe it's legal once you're there. Maybe it's not legal to bring it in. 270 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,200 Well, look, it's not that big of a deal. Just good thing he wasn't in Russia. 271 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:49,920 Right. Yes, I did have that thought. Jesus Christ. He should be more careful. I don't 272 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:54,480 think he's ever been to Russia. A Norwegian fucking jail? Come on now. 273 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:58,640 I'll go check into a Norwegian jail. I'm sure it's like a vacation. 274 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:05,520 Oh man, there's some guy listening to us in Norway in prison who's really mad at you right now. 275 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:13,600 Most of his arrests have been either like possession of weed or crack, 276 00:28:13,600 --> 00:28:19,120 possession with intent to sell in his early days, and then also a lot of firearm arrest 277 00:28:19,120 --> 00:28:24,240 because he is a felon from the earlier drug charges. He's not allowed to have a gun, 278 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:29,600 but he always does. Why? He always does. I mean, not always. I don't know, but several times. 279 00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:35,760 Maybe after- If you're walking around 30 Gs, you're going to need to be packing heat too. 280 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:40,160 Look, let's just talk about the fact that I don't agree with guns, but maybe after he saw 281 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,640 what happened to Tupac, he's like, I better carry a gun too. You never know when somebody's going 282 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:51,920 to be out for you. Yeah. I mean, if you have a literal car in cash on you, like multiple cars- 283 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:58,240 I'm not going to get Snoop Dogg a pass on guns because I like him and I don't like all the so-called 284 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:06,640 patriots, but I mean, no bad reviews of the American flag, whatever, but guns. I don't 285 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:15,120 think it's a good idea to just carry around a gun. Yeah, or cash, or drugs, if you're in Norway. 286 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,120 I don't think you should carry this stuff around in the United States either. 287 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:24,240 Okay. He was arrested that one time for murder, and we'll get to that in a minute. 288 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,400 Oh, he was? We'll get to that in a minute. I didn't know about that. 289 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,400 Oh, you didn't? No, I thought he was wholesome. I didn't know. 290 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,160 Oh, well, this will be fun then. Oh, okay. Well, you know what? We can all be multifaceted. 291 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,600 I'm sure he's done a lot of changes for himself. There's a lot of gray area, 292 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,480 and especially in Snoop's life, there's a lot of gray area. 293 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,960 Well, it seems like he's come around to try to be a better person though. 294 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:49,440 No. Was the murder charge recent? No. He was acquitted, and we're going to talk about it. 295 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:56,640 He started a band, a group. If you're rappers, are you called a band or are you called a group? 296 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,200 Think a group. All right. So they were called 297 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:04,880 213, because that's the Long Beach area code. It was him and his two cousins, Nate Dogg and 298 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:11,680 Little Half Dead. Wait, they got Nate Dogg? I don't know why that's so funny, that his cousin is 299 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:15,760 Nate Dogg and he's Snoop Dogg. Why is that so funny to me? 300 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,080 And I think there's a few other dogs, and they're like the Dogg Pound. 301 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,040 The Dogg Pound, yeah. Yeah. They were a whole thing for a while. 302 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,880 This is so funny. And then also his friend, War and G. Do you guys remember War and G, 303 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,120 or is that before your time? Yeah, I remember War and G. 304 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:33,200 I remember him personally. We were friends. We went out to coffee once. Old friend. 305 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:40,400 So this is the 213 group, is these guys. And they were making their own tapes and probably- 306 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,560 Little mix tape. Yep. Probably selling them out of the 307 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,960 trunk of the car. Somebody put one of those tapes into Dr. Dre's hands. 308 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,840 Nice. And that is how Dr. Dre found Snoop Dogg. 309 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,360 Man, Dr. Dre, he has gotten so many people famous. 310 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:59,760 He's really something. So we're going to- Wait, does he have a coffee? Because he needs 311 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,320 an episode, I think. That'd be great. Should I not say 312 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:06,480 what I was going to say about Dr. Dre and save it just in case there's a coffee? 313 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,240 No, no. This will be a preview for a future episode. 314 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:19,520 Okay. 1987 NWA. They're like the first really big West Coast- 315 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,880 What does it stand for?

As a white person, yes. 323 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:46,160 So the first NWA album was more like a compilation album. 324 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:51,120 There were three NWA songs and then each of these guys, there were five guys in this 325 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:55,440 group who were all really talented and all went on to have solo careers. 326 00:31:56,240 --> 00:32:00,160 So it was kind of a mix of NWA songs and then solo songs. 327 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,720 And this was like Easy E was kind of the one who set the whole thing up and 328 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:11,760 then everyone ended up hating him because there were like disputes about contracts. 329 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,920 Yeah, money. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 330 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:23,600 So Easy E founded NWA and co-founded Ruthless Records who was making the NWA album. 331 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,400 So he just kind of had his hands everywhere. 332 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:26,900 Right. 333 00:32:26,900 --> 00:32:35,140 So 1988 Straight Outta Compton was the first official studio album. 334 00:32:35,700 --> 00:32:37,940 That was the one with Fuck the Police on it. 335 00:32:37,940 --> 00:32:40,340 So everybody got... That was NWA or that was... 336 00:32:40,340 --> 00:32:42,100 That was NWA, yeah. Okay, cool. 337 00:32:42,100 --> 00:32:44,180 And that got everybody all riled up, right? 338 00:32:44,180 --> 00:32:46,660 Right on. That was so huge. 339 00:32:47,780 --> 00:32:50,340 Blue Line. Blue Lines Matter. 340 00:32:50,340 --> 00:32:50,840 That was crossed. 341 00:32:51,700 --> 00:32:53,780 The Blue Line was definitely, yeah. 342 00:32:53,780 --> 00:32:57,380 It went double platinum, so plenty of people liked it just fine. 343 00:32:57,940 --> 00:32:58,440 Right. 344 00:32:58,900 --> 00:33:01,860 Ice Cube left in 89 over royalty disputes. 345 00:33:01,860 --> 00:33:06,340 He wrote over half the lyrics on Straight Outta Compton and didn't get paid appropriately, apparently. 346 00:33:07,460 --> 00:33:10,020 So then there was like a big public feud. 347 00:33:10,020 --> 00:33:18,100 And then Dr. Dre left in 1991 and joined Death Row Records over a contract dispute with Easy E. 348 00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:24,580 So 1991 Death Row Records, the story I read, which I didn't write down, was that Dre got out 349 00:33:24,580 --> 00:33:28,340 of his contract with Easy E because Shugknight showed up and... 350 00:33:28,340 --> 00:33:28,840 Killed him. 351 00:33:33,780 --> 00:33:38,100 That is not the person that Shugknight is currently in prison for murdering. 352 00:33:39,620 --> 00:33:40,660 Easy E is still alive. 353 00:33:40,660 --> 00:33:43,540 Easy E is still alive.

about for a minute, in 2003, he did a tour. 1039 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:36,840 By the way, we talked about his wife recently. 1040 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:38,600 He has been married this whole time. 1041 01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:39,560 He has three kids. 1042 01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:43,720 He has four kids because in between two of his kids, he had another kid 1043 01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:49,080 with another woman who, by the way, was also a previous high school girlfriend. 1044 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:52,760 He's like only into girls he was into in high school. 1045 01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:54,120

something you're trying to tell me? 1049 01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:05,880 No, just kidding. 1050 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,960 You got some high school girls on the side? 1051 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:11,100 No. 1052 01:05:11,100 --> 01:05:13,340 I don't like the way that sounded. 1053 01:05:14,700 --> 01:05:16,300 They're not high school girls. 1054 01:05:16,300 --> 01:05:18,220 They're girls he went to high school with. 1055 01:05:19,180 --> 01:05:20,860 There's a huge difference. 1056 01:05:20,860 --> 01:05:21,660 Huge difference. 1057 01:05:22,620 --> 01:05:23,100 Okay, you're right. 1058 01:05:23,100 --> 01:05:23,900 Several decades. 1059 01:05:23,900 --> 01:05:25,100 That does sound very gross. 1060 01:05:27,420 --> 01:05:31,580 So his wife is obviously like a very, I don't know if they have like an arrangement 1061 01:05:31,580 --> 01:05:36,540 or if she's just extremely forgiving or what the deal is there, but- 1062 01:05:36,540 --> 01:05:37,020 Money. 1063 01:05:37,020 --> 01:05:39,820 Again, I think I said earlier in the episode, but I think money helps. 1064 01:05:39,820 --> 01:05:40,620 With a lot of things. 1065 01:05:40,620 --> 01:05:42,620 I mean, you can get divorced and still have money. 1066 01:05:42,620 --> 01:05:43,980 She could still have plenty of money. 1067 01:05:43,980 --> 01:05:48,140 Yeah, but I'm saying like, but you know, you have to do the math and it's like, 1068 01:05:48,140 --> 01:05:49,740 do we get separated and then we have this? 1069 01:05:49,740 --> 01:05:51,420 And it's like she loves him, you know? 1070 01:05:51,420

01:06:25,020 --> 01:06:30,220 So he gets like a bunch of prostitutes and gets them a separate bus. 1085 01:06:30,220 --> 01:06:31,420 Wait, in 2003. 1086 01:06:31,420 --> 01:06:34,620 So this is like 10 years after he's been famous. 1087 01:06:34,620 --> 01:06:36,220 Yes. 1088 01:06:36,220 --> 01:06:36,720 OK. 1089 01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:37,220 Yes. 1090 01:06:37,220 --> 01:06:43,420 But guys, I'd like to remind you his lesson learned, a pimpin' ain't easy. 1091 01:06:43,420 --> 01:06:45,020 No, he loved it actually. 1092 01:06:45,020 --> 01:06:45,620 Oh, OK. 1093 01:06:45,620 --> 01:06:47,220 He was a natural, he says. 1094 01:06:47,220 --> 01:06:48,220 Oh. 1095 01:06:48,220 --> 01:06:52,520 OK, let's put this in a business perspective. 1096 01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:55,220 Like, let's take Las Vegas, for example. 1097 01:06:55,220 --> 01:06:57,620 They have like places. 1098 01:06:57,620 --> 01:07:00,620 No, actually, it is completely illegal in Las Vegas. 1099 01:07:00,620 --> 01:07:01,620 It's legal in Nevada. 1100 01:07:01,620 --> 01:07:02,920 OK, Nevada, Nevada. 1101 01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:06,920 So like the state of Nevada, that's what I meant to say. 1102 01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:10,720 You know, like you may be a person who says, 1103 01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:15,920 I would like to be a middleman for sex. 1104 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:19,220 And there are women who want to make money. 1105 01:07:19,220 --> 01:07:22,620 And there are men who want to pay them. 1106 01:07:22,620 --> 01:07:25,020 And maybe like, well, let's talk about two. 1107 01:07:25,020 --> 01:07:30,820 Like, I think pimps get a bad rap because so many of them 1108 01:07:30,820 --> 01:07:34,620 are about the control and abuse of women. 1109 01:07:34,620 --> 01:07:36,920 Now, if somebody comes in and is like, 1110 01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:43,020 I would like to be an ethical middle person of sexual transaction. 1111 01:07:43,020 --> 01:07:46,420 Right, between two consenting adults and you're just looking for a demographic. 1112 01:07:46,420 --> 01:07:47,820 You're just a facilitator. 1113 01:07:47,820 --> 01:07:48,620 That's right. 1114 01:07:48,620 --> 01:07:49,220 Exactly. 1115 01:07:49,220 --> 01:07:51,220 It's like a business decision. 1116 01:07:51,220 --> 01:07:53,020 It's still fucking weird. 1117 01:07:53,020 --> 01:07:58,020 It's not on me, on what people want to post on my website. 1118 01:07:58,020 --> 01:08:01,420 It's just I'm facilitating the transaction, 1119 01:08:01,420 --> 01:08:03,420 but I don't care what they're saying to each other. 1120 01:08:03,420 --> 01:08:04,420 Well, I mean, it does. 1121 01:08:04,420 --> 01:08:07,220 It's like, I think one of the jobs of a pimp 1122 01:08:07,220 --> 01:08:14,820 is to protect the women from being like from men. 1123 01:08:14,820 --> 01:08:15,820 Listen, stop. 1124 01:08:15,820 --> 01:08:19,820 From predatory men and predatory clients. 1125 01:08:19,820 --> 01:08:23,620 So if somebody can be an ethical protector of women 1126 01:08:23,620 --> 01:08:28,020 who would like to make money in this fashion, 1127 01:08:28,020 --> 01:08:32,620 then I think there is a place where this is OK. 1128 01:08:32,620 --> 01:08:33,120 OK. 1129 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:33,620 I think that the- 1130 01:08:33,620 --> 01:08:34,520 You're Chinese pro pimp. 1131 01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:35,020 No, I'm- 1132 01:08:35,020 --> 01:08:35,920 I am- 1133 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:36,620 When I'm pro- 1134 01:08:36,620 --> 01:08:37,620 Put that on a t-shirt. 1135 01:08:37,620 --> 01:08:38,120 Yeah. 1136 01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:42,620 I would say what I am is pro women making money in a way 1137 01:08:42,620 --> 01:08:44,820 that they feel comfortable making money. 1138 01:08:44,820 --> 01:08:48,020 And I am pro women doing it in a way that is safe 1139 01:08:48,020 --> 01:08:49,620 and that they are protected. 1140 01:08:49,620 --> 01:08:50,420 It's like a manager. 1141 01:08:50,420 --> 01:08:50,920 I am not- 1142 01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:51,620 Is that really like- 1143 01:08:51,620 --> 01:08:57,220 I am not pro women being taken advantage of or abused 1144 01:08:57,220 --> 01:09:01,820 or harmed, which tends to happen a lot in a pimp sex worker 1145 01:09:01,820 --> 01:09:02,820 situation. 1146 01:09:02,820 --> 01:09:03,320 Right. 1147 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:03,820 OK. 1148 01:09:03,820 --> 01:09:04,620 So that being said- 1149 01:09:04,620 --> 01:09:07,120 So Snoop Dogg offered 401k or benefits or- 1150 01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:11,020 If he's offering a 401k or benefits, I'm about it. 1151 01:09:11,020 --> 01:09:14,820 I mean, with 20 workers, you could get a good group plan. 1152 01:09:14,820 --> 01:09:17,120 I know. 1153 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:19,420 I think they had up to 10 at one time. 1154 01:09:19,420 --> 01:09:20,420 OK. 1155 01:09:20,420 --> 01:09:24,720 They had their own tour bus and they had their own hotel rooms 1156 01:09:24,720 --> 01:09:27,020 next to his suite. 1157 01:09:27,020 --> 01:09:31,420 And this is not like a street prostitute type situation. 1158 01:09:31,420 --> 01:09:34,420 This was like a high end type situation. 1159 01:09:34,420 --> 01:09:34,920 Oh, wait. 1160 01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:36,220 Can I say one thing? 1161 01:09:36,220 --> 01:09:40,120 I do believe that the PC term is sex worker these days, 1162 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:40,820 not prostitute. 1163 01:09:40,820 --> 01:09:43,320 Oh, I got in trouble for this on another episode. 1164 01:09:43,320 --> 01:09:44,320 You're right. 1165 01:09:44,320 --> 01:09:49,320 We are all pro sex

01:10:17,220 --> 01:10:23,020 So what would happen is people, like famous athletes, 1184 01:10:23,020 --> 01:10:26,620 professional athletes and celebrities would come to his 1185 01:10:26,620 --> 01:10:30,520 shows and they'd come backstage and he'd be like, hey, 1186 01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:32,320 why don't you come back to the hotel? 1187 01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:35,020 I've got a girl for you.

01:10:44,620 that he was being paid to do. 1191 01:10:44,620 --> 01:10:47,520 But he didn't take any money from the women at all. 1192 01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:50,620 He was just doing it for fun and he let them keep all the money. 1193 01:10:50,620 --> 01:10:51,820 Wow. 1194 01:10:51,820 --> 01:10:53,220 What did I just say? 1195 01:10:53,220 --> 01:10:54,120 Let's get pimped. 1196 01:10:54,120 -->

narrated some Planet Earth episodes, 1283 01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:46,820 Plizanet Earth on the Jimmy Kimmel show. 1284 01:13:46,820 --> 01:13:48,980 And there was a change.org petition 1285 01:13:48,980 --> 01:13:52,220 to get him to narrate all of the Planet Earths from now on 1286 01:13:52,220 --> 01:13:54,920 because he's so awesome. 1287 01:13:54,920 --> 01:13:57,220 He's super into NFTs. 1288 01:13:57,220 --> 01:13:57,820 Oh, OK. 1289 01:13:57,820 --> 01:13:59,820 Super into NFTs. 1290 01:13:59,820 --> 01:14:00,820 It's a crypto. 1291 01:14:00,820 --> 01:14:02,220 It's like a visual crypto. 1292 01:14:02,220 --> 01:14:03,220 Yeah. 1293 01:14:03,220 --> 01:14:07,020 Like where you would sell art online 1294 01:14:07,020 --> 01:14:08,820 and it was supposedly worth something. 1295 01:14:08,820 --> 01:14:09,320 Yeah. 1296 01:14:09,320 --> 01:14:10,720 It doesn't make any sense to me. 1297 01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:13,020 I know what it is, but it makes no sense to me. 1298 01:14:13,020 --> 01:14:16,320 He's got some kind of Call of Duty game appearance. 1299 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:17,720 I don't know anything about that. 1300 01:14:17,720 --> 01:14:19,120 He's got an app. 1301 01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:20,420 He's invested in Reddit. 1302 01:14:20,420 --> 01:14:22,320 He's got a weed delivery startup. 1303 01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:24,120 He's got a digital media business, 1304 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:27,520 a brand of cannabis products, an e-sports league. 1305 01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:32,220 And he's part owner of the Ottawa Senators hockey team. 1306 01:14:32,220 --> 01:14:33,520 That's super fucking random. 1307 01:14:36,220 --> 01:14:37,820 Canadian. 1308 01:14:37,820 --> 01:14:41,220 He also owns Death Row Records, like owns it outright. 1309 01:14:41,220 --> 01:14:42,520 You know what? 1310 01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:45,820 We have had a lot of people on this podcast 1311 01:14:45,820 --> 01:14:48,920 that are like the type of guy who's like, I want it, 1312 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:51,420 and he goes out and gets it. 1313 01:14:51,420 --> 01:14:54,720 For example, La Colom guy. 1314 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:58,320 I think Snoop Dogg fucking takes it, 1315 01:14:58,320 --> 01:15:01,760 takes like number one spot for like dude who wants it 1316 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:02,820 and does it. 1317 01:15:02,820 --> 01:15:06,020 And he does it in such like a laid back, mellow way. 1318 01:15:06,020 --> 01:15:08,320 But he's fucking goes, you know? 1319 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,720 I mean, you've got to think, his day, 1320 01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:13,060 just checking up on all of those businesses 1321 01:15:13,060 --> 01:15:15,620 and keeping track and getting reports and shit, 1322 01:15:15,620 --> 01:15:18,020 he's going to spend at least 12 hours a day just 1323 01:15:18,020 --> 01:15:19,620 being a businessman. 1324 01:15:19,620 --> 01:15:21,960 He probably works like crazy. 1325 01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:24,260 You would think he has a laid back lifestyle, 1326 01:15:24,260 --> 01:15:26,420 but like he's probably constantly working. 1327 01:15:26,420 --> 01:15:28,060 He probably doesn't even work, man. 1328 01:15:28,060 --> 01:15:30,220 He probably just gets the checks at the end of the day. 1329 01:15:30,220 --> 01:15:32,220 I think he's probably definitely an investor, 1330 01:15:32,220 --> 01:15:33,960 but I think like there's going to be reports 1331 01:15:33,960 --> 01:15:36,220 that you have to go over and you have to be checking up on. 1332 01:15:36,220 --> 01:15:37,060 But he's not running the companies. 1333 01:15:37,060 --> 01:15:37,660 I know. 1334 01:15:37,660 --> 01:15:39,560 He's just getting the checks and the reports. 1335 01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:42,060 You guys, he smokes 80 blunts a day. 1336 01:15:42,060 --> 01:15:43,060 Right. 1337 01:15:43,060 --> 01:15:44,460 How much work can he possibly do? 1338 01:15:44,460 --> 01:15:45,420 That's what I'm saying. 1339 01:15:45,420 --> 01:15:46,260 He just shows up. 1340 01:15:46,260 --> 01:15:48,260 80. 1341 01:15:48,260 --> 01:15:52,120 I heard that Snoop Dogg has a professional on staff blunt 1342 01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:52,620 roller. 1343 01:15:52,620 --> 01:15:53,860 Yes, he does. 1344 01:15:53,860 --> 01:15:55,220 He's going to get lung cancer. 1345 01:15:55,220 --> 01:15:57,560 He's going to slow down on that. 1346 01:15:57,560 --> 01:16:00,260 Maybe he'll try some addables, mix things up. 1347 01:16:00,260 --> 01:16:02,560 He really needs to think about his lung health. 1348 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,620 A professional on staff roller of blunts. 1349 01:16:05,620 --> 01:16:08,820 Well, if I were Snoop Dogg and I smoked as much weed as he did, 1350 01:16:08,820 --> 01:16:10,960 I would have a professional rolling for me too. 1351 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:11,460 Of course. 1352 01:16:11,460 --> 01:16:12,560 I mean, of course. 1353 01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:14,980 Look, he doesn't have a lot of time. 1354 01:16:14,980 --> 01:16:16,380 There's only 24 hours in the day. 1355 01:16:16,380 --> 01:16:19,620 I promise you, he might be an investor in all of these things, 1356 01:16:19,620 --> 01:16:21,480 but he's not a dumb ass. 1357 01:16:21,480 --> 01:16:25,180 So I'm pretty sure that he's definitely somehow invested 1358 01:16:25,180 --> 01:16:26,960 and definitely takes this shit seriously 1359 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,300 despite his public persona. 1360 01:16:29,300 --> 01:16:31,780 Because you don't get involved in this many businesses, 1361 01:16:31,780 --> 01:16:33,540 and you don't get involved in this much shit 1362 01:16:33,540 --> 01:16:34,940 by just being a slacker. 1363 01:16:34,940 --> 01:16:35,440 Yeah. 1364 01:16:35,440 --> 01:16:36,060 You know? 1365 01:16:36,060 --> 01:16:38,900 It's like, I think, yeah. 1366 01:16:38,900 --> 01:16:40,380 You don't do all this. 1367 01:16:40,380 --> 01:16:41,260 Yeah. 1368 01:16:41,260 --> 01:16:42,880 The last thing I have to say about him 1369 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:45,900 is just about his charitable works, 1370 01:16:45,900 --> 01:16:47,380 which he doesn't talk about. 1371 01:16:47,380 --> 01:16:47,900 He doesn't. 1372 01:16:47,900 --> 01:16:48,380 Oh, god. 1373 01:16:48,380 --> 01:16:49,380 He's super quiet about it. 1374 01:16:49,380 --> 01:16:49,940 You set me up. 1375 01:16:49,940 --> 01:16:51,340 I thought you were going to be like, 1376 01:16:51,340 --> 01:16:52,980 his charitable works, which he doesn't do. 1377 01:16:52,980 --> 01:16:53,740 He doesn't do that. 1378 01:16:53,740 --> 01:16:54,060 No. 1379 01:16:54,060 --> 01:16:55,220 He doesn't believe in charity. 1380 01:16:55,220 --> 01:16:57,300 Pull yourself up by your bootstraps. 1381 01:16:57,300 --> 01:17:03,100 He just like all those other guys that we've had on these 1382 01:17:03,100 --> 01:17:05,260 podcasts, the guys who do it all. 1383 01:17:07,940 --> 01:17:12,500 He feels like if he talks about his charitable donations, 1384 01:17:12,500 --> 01:17:14,100 then he's looking for attention. 1385 01:17:14,100 --> 01:17:15,620 So he doesn't like to talk about it. 1386 01:17:15,620 --> 01:17:18,020 He gives a bunch of money to children's hospitals. 1387 01:17:18,020 --> 01:17:19,360 That's like the number one thing. 1388 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:21,060 Well, that's the number two thing. 1389 01:17:21,060 --> 01:17:24,540 The number one thing is his youth football league. 1390 01:17:24,540 --> 01:17:28,700 He decided in 2005, as soon as he was done pimping, 1391 01:17:28,700 --> 01:17:32,340 he was like, I should do something for the kids now. 1392 01:17:32,340 --> 01:17:34,420 So he started a youth football league 1393 01:17:34,420 --> 01:17:37,540 for underprivileged youth in LA. 1394 01:17:37,540 --> 01:17:39,660 And at first, he just wanted to give money to it 1395 01:17:39,660 --> 01:17:42,180 and not participate because he didn't want to. 1396 01:17:42,180 --> 01:17:43,580 He feels like he's looking. 1397 01:17:43,580 --> 01:17:46,340 He doesn't want people to think he's looking for attention. 1398 01:17:46,340 --> 01:17:49,220 But when he showed up to the games and the practices 1399 01:17:49,220 --> 01:17:51,660 and the kids were so excited to meet him 1400 01:17:51,660 --> 01:17:53,420 and wanted photos with him and everything, 1401 01:17:53,420 --> 01:17:56,340 and he realized there was actually a benefit 1402 01:17:56,340 --> 01:17:59,580 to putting his face with this club. 1403 01:17:59,580 --> 01:18:01,180 This is so adorable. 1404 01:18:01,180 --> 01:18:05,780 This is now the largest youth football league in California. 1405 01:18:05,780 --> 01:18:08,700 And there's also a special needs division 1406 01:18:08,700 --> 01:18:12,860 for kids with physical, mental, and developmental disabilities. 1407 01:18:12,860 --> 01:18:16,060 50 teams, 1,500 players. 1408 01:18:16,060 --> 01:18:17,860 It's enormous. 1409 01:18:17,860 --> 01:18:18,860 That's crazy. 1410 01:18:18,860 --> 01:18:21,220 He's had something like 20 or 30 kids 1411 01:18:21,220 --> 01:18:26,100 go on to professional football players. 1412 01:18:26,100 --> 01:18:27,900 Yeah. 1413 01:18:27,900 --> 01:18:31,020 He also gives away 3,000 turkeys every Thanksgiving. 1414 01:18:31,020 --> 01:18:32,500 Aw. 1415 01:18:32,500 --> 01:18:32,980 I don't know. 1416 01:18:32,980 --> 01:18:34,220 I just thought that was cute. 1417 01:18:34,220 --> 01:18:35,340 That's so cute. 1418 01:18:35,340 --> 01:18:37,980 Through another charity, maybe he is? 1419 01:18:37,980 --> 01:18:40,140 Or he just out of the trunk of his car? 1420 01:18:40,140 --> 01:18:41,260 I'm not sure. 1421 01:18:41,260 --> 01:18:42,300 Crazy. 1422 01:18:42,300 --> 01:18:44,940 Did you enjoy getting a turkey from Montes Coffee? 1423 01:18:44,940 --> 01:18:46,300 Or was that weird? 1424 01:18:46,300 --> 01:18:48,820 Marcus and I wanted to bring back the holiday turkey 1425 01:18:48,820 --> 01:18:50,780 from the 50s. 1426 01:18:50,780 --> 01:18:52,340 You didn't actually buy a turkey. 1427 01:18:52,340 --> 01:18:53,700 I gave her a turkey one year. 1428 01:18:53,700 --> 01:18:56,060 And Theresa, they both got turkey. 1429 01:18:56,060 --> 01:18:57,620 Me and Theresa both got turkeys. 1430 01:18:57,620 --> 01:18:59,820 And me and Theresa both texted each other and were like, 1431 01:18:59,820 --> 01:19:03,900 what the fuck are we going to do with this turkey? 1432 01:19:03,900 --> 01:19:05,180 But we both cooked turkeys. 1433 01:19:05,180 --> 01:19:06,500 And they were delicious. 1434 01:19:06,500 --> 01:19:08,100 Would you like a turkey again? 1435 01:19:08,100 --> 01:19:08,600 No. 1436 01:19:11,340 --> 01:19:14,100 Yeah, that was the year we were like, let's get everyone a turkey. 1437 01:19:14,100 --> 01:19:16,300 I love it in theory. 1438 01:19:16,300 --> 01:19:17,540 I know it's a great idea. 1439 01:19:17,540 --> 01:19:19,980 But then I was like, what do you do with the turkey? 1440 01:19:19,980 --> 01:19:22,620 I was like, in fairness, I was like, whatever we spent. 1441 01:19:22,620 --> 01:19:24,780 I would just do that as a gift card. 1442 01:19:24,780 --> 01:19:26,780 I feel like that's way more useful. 1443 01:19:26,780 --> 01:19:27,580 Just give me $30. 1444 01:19:27,580 --> 01:19:29,780 Yeah, but there's something really fun about driving out 1445 01:19:29,780 --> 01:19:32,620 to the turkey farm and buying a turkey and then giving it away. 1446 01:19:32,620 --> 01:19:33,860 So who is this for? 1447 01:19:33,860 --> 01:19:36,500 Is it for the person giving or is it for the person receiving? 1448 01:19:36,500 --> 01:19:37,660 It's for me. 1449 01:19:37,660 --> 01:19:38,380 It's for me. 1450 01:19:38,380 --> 01:19:40,180 So I can drive to the turkey farm. 1451 01:19:40,180 --> 01:19:42,700 This is not for you, Steph. 1452 01:19:42,700 --> 01:19:45,980 Enjoy my turkey. 1453 01:19:45,980 --> 01:19:48,180 You could just go buy yourself a turkey. 1454 01:19:48,180 --> 01:19:50,100 I think we did buy ourselves a turkey too. 1455 01:19:50,100 --> 01:19:51,100 Right. 1456 01:19:51,100 --> 01:19:53,300 But that box, it's so vintage. 1457 01:19:53,300 --> 01:19:54,420 It felt so 50s. 1458 01:19:54,420 --> 01:19:55,020 You had a hoca. 1459 01:19:55,020 --> 01:19:56,540 Everything about it was 1950s. 1460 01:19:56,540 --> 01:19:57,780 A hoca, fucking real turkey man. 1461 01:19:57,780 --> 01:20:00,020 I feel like we might still have that box in our basement 1462 01:20:00,020 --> 01:20:01,740 somewhere holding some important papers. 1463 01:20:01,740 --> 01:20:03,940 Can I tell you, my mom? 1464 01:20:03,940 --> 01:20:06,220 My mom said my grandma worked at a bank, 1465 01:20:06,220 --> 01:20:09,060 and they gave out hoca turkeys back when my grandma worked 1466 01:20:09,060 --> 01:20:10,060 there. 1467 01:20:10,060 --> 01:20:14,100 So this tradition, it started, and it's not stopping. 1468 01:20:14,100 --> 01:20:15,380 I've only done it once.

inside a hoca turkey box? 1485 01:20:37,620 --> 01:20:40,660 I thought you were going to say inside a hoca turkey. 1486 01:20:40,660 --> 01:20:42,300 How about putting it inside a turkey? 1487 01:20:42,300 --> 01:20:48,900 Churwiskin or whatever. 1488 01:20:48,900 --> 01:20:51,100 All right, Marcus, I don't know what our time is, 1489 01:20:51,100 --> 01:20:54,300 but I only want to talk about the actual coffee company 1490 01:20:54,300 --> 01:20:56,300 for five minutes, because Snoop is obviously 1491 01:20:56,300 --> 01:20:57,700 not roasting fucking coffee. 1492 01:20:57,700 --> 01:20:59,060 I'd like to see him try. 1493 01:20:59,060 --> 01:21:00,660 So tell me about this coffee company. 1494 01:21:00,660 --> 01:21:03,460 So when you look at the website for this Indo coffee, 1495 01:21:03,460 --> 01:21:08,180 it looks very like Sexy Lifestyle brand. 1496 01:21:08,180 --> 01:21:11,100 There's lots of girls in bikinis with the Indo 1497 01:21:11,100 --> 01:21:13,380 written across their chest and stuff like that. 1498 01:21:13,380 --> 01:21:14,060 Cool. 1499 01:21:14,060 --> 01:21:17,900 Fuel the Dream is the tagline for Indo coffee. 1500 01:21:17,900 --> 01:21:20,700 I expected more from you, Snoop Dogg. 1501 01:21:20,700 --> 01:21:24,260 But they do mention that the roaster is a guy named 1502 01:21:24,260 --> 01:21:28,060 Michael Riadi, who's an Indonesian coffee entrepreneur. 1503 01:21:28,060 --> 01:21:33,180 So I looked up his deal, thinking maybe I'd 1504 01:21:33,180 --> 01:21:36,100 find a really legit coffee roaster. 1505 01:21:36,100 --> 01:21:37,020 They're on a yacht. 1506 01:21:37,020 --> 01:21:38,220 I'm on his website right now. 1507 01:21:38,220 --> 01:21:40,180 Yeah, of course they're on a yacht. 1508 01:21:40,180 --> 01:21:44,940 Yeah, with a DJ, lots of bikinis and dancing, mostly women. 1509 01:21:44,940 --> 01:21:47,380 I didn't know women were into coffee. 1510 01:21:47,380 --> 01:21:49,620 Actually, all women on this boat. 1511 01:21:49,620 --> 01:21:52,700 So they know the power of ownership, 1512 01:21:52,700 --> 01:21:54,340 according to the website. 1513 01:21:54,340 --> 01:21:58,540 All right, so I look up this Michael Riadi guy. 1514 01:21:58,540 --> 01:22:02,940 He has another coffee company that's called Tenterra Coffee. 1515 01:22:02,940 --> 01:22:06,060 This is a surf and coffee roasting company, 1516 01:22:06,060 --> 01:22:09,900 because apparently Michael Riadi is super into surfing. 1517 01:22:09,900 --> 01:22:12,860 1% of the proceeds from this company 1518 01:22:12,860 --> 01:22:16,980 go to buy surfboards for underprivileged kids, 1519 01:22:16,980 --> 01:22:20,460 which is nice, I guess. 1520 01:22:20,460 --> 01:22:23,540 Yeah, I'm sure they still haven't made enough money 1521 01:22:23,540 --> 01:22:26,900 to fucking give one surfboard. 1522 01:22:26,900 --> 01:22:29,260 Who is the underprivileged kid who's like, 1523 01:22:29,260 --> 01:22:31,380 I don't care about having food or shoes 1524 01:22:31,380 --> 01:22:33,260 if only I had a surfboard? 1525 01:22:33,260 --> 01:22:34,500 I mean, maybe. 1526 01:22:34,500 --> 01:22:35,340 It's LA. 1527 01:22:35,340 --> 01:22:36,180 I don't know. 1528 01:22:36,180 --> 01:22:36,740 It's LA. 1529 01:22:36,740 --> 01:22:37,820 You know what? 1530 01:22:37,820 --> 01:22:40,100 We do not live in California. 1531 01:22:40,100 --> 01:22:43,260 Thank God Michael Riadi is there for those kids. 1532 01:22:43,260 --> 01:22:45,580 Maybe he was a poor kid who wanted a surfboard. 1533 01:22:45,580 --> 01:22:46,300 Yeah. 1534 01:22:46,300 --> 01:22:47,660 Maybe he was a poor kid. 1535 01:22:47,660 --> 01:22:48,180 There it is. 1536 01:22:48,180 --> 01:22:49,340 Stick with me. 1537 01:22:49,340 --> 01:22:53,180 So he talks about he was born in Jakarta. 1538 01:22:53,180 --> 01:22:58,580 He spends his time between LA and Bali, Indonesia. 1539 01:22:58,580 --> 01:23:00,900 He comes from a family of entrepreneurs, 1540 01:23:00,900 --> 01:23:03,220 and they have worked so hard for what they have. 1541 01:23:03,220 --> 01:23:06,500 And his family constantly talks about business, apparently. 1542 01:23:06,500 --> 01:23:08,460 When he was a little kid at the dinner table, 1543 01:23:08,460 --> 01:23:10,500 they were just constantly talking about business. 1544 01:23:10,500 --> 01:23:14,020 He learned everything from his family, his grandpa especially. 1545 01:23:14,020 --> 01:23:17,180 He was 22 years old, started up a little bike shop. 1546 01:23:17,180 --> 01:23:21,180 That's how Michael Riadi learned about business. 1547 01:23:21,180 --> 01:23:22,780 He went to college. 1548 01:23:22,780 --> 01:23:25,300 He was in real estate for 13 years. 1549 01:23:25,300 --> 01:23:28,660 And then in 2017, he got into the coffee business. 1550 01:23:28,660 --> 01:23:29,140 Sure. 1551 01:23:29,140 --> 01:23:32,620 He believes in starting small and thinking big. 1552 01:23:32,620 --> 01:23:35,220 And all of his coffee is direct trade. 1553 01:23:35,220 --> 01:23:38,700 He himself handpicks each coffee that he 1554 01:23:38,700 --> 01:23:41,220 sells on the Tentera website. 1555 01:23:41,220 --> 01:23:41,740 Cool. 1556 01:23:41,740 --> 01:23:43,740 And he's just getting it all from Indonesia. 1557 01:23:43,740 --> 01:23:45,380 And he's getting it all from Indonesia. 1558 01:23:45,380 -->

01:23:52,420 --> 01:23:55,660 we got to go back and try one of these coffees from his website, 1562 01:23:55,660 --> 01:23:56,580 I feel like. 1563 01:23:56,580 --> 01:23:58,060 But he works hard. 1564 01:23:58,060 --> 01:23:59,460 He works 18 hours a day. 1565 01:23:59,460 --> 01:24:02,060 He's just really a dedicated person. 1566 01:24:02,060 --> 01:24:06,900 So his grandpa's name is Maktar Riadi. 1567 01:24:06,900 --> 01:24:08,380 He started with a bike shop. 1568 01:24:08,380 --> 01:24:09,900 And then he went into banking. 1569 01:24:09,900 --> 01:24:12,100 And then he opened the Lipo

natural resources, hospitality, and health care. 1576 01:24:26,340 --> 01:24:30,260 His personal net worth is $1.5 billion. 1577 01:24:30,260 --> 01:24:33,660 I would have to guess if I had to guess that his grandpa maybe 1578 01:24:33,660 --> 01:24:35,980 helped him get his coffee business started. 1579 01:24:35,980 --> 01:24:38,580 How dare you? 1580 01:24:38,580 --> 01:24:43,540 I mean, I

this coffee, according to the website, 1678 01:28:07,620 --> 01:28:11,300 the process is called wet hulling. 1679 01:28:11,300 --> 01:28:11,820 OK. 1680 01:28:11,820 --> 01:28:12,500 What is that? 1681 01:28:12,500 --> 01:28:14,140 Describe that. 1682 01:28:14,140 --> 01:28:17,380 I think that's just another name for washed coffee, right? 1683 01:28:17,380 --> 01:28:19,380 OK. 1684 01:28:19,380 --> 01:28:22,020 Where they break the, it's a wet, it's a water process 1685 01:28:22,020 --> 01:28:26,540 where they break the exterior of the bean, like the fruit, off. 1686 01:28:26,540 --> 01:28:28,180 And then they're left with the beans. 1687 01:28:28,180 --> 01:28:29,540 It's not really anything special. 1688 01:28:29,540 --> 01:28:30,340 It's pretty common. 1689 01:28:30,340 --> 01:28:33,860 I just hadn't heard that term before, wet hulling. 1690 01:28:33,860 --> 01:28:34,740 OK. 1691 01:28:34,740 --> 01:28:38,780 Yeah, it's just another name for mechanical separating. 1692 01:28:38,780 --> 01:28:42,340 Sometimes you'll hear it called mechanical separation of coffee. 1693 01:28:42,340 --> 01:28:46,300 They probably got a Panagos wet huller. 1694 01:28:46,300 --> 01:28:47,540 Oh, you know what? 1695 01:28:47,540 --> 01:28:56,500 I snapped a screenshot of this guy's coffee company page. 1696 01:28:56,500 --> 01:28:59,820 This is the Tenterra company, his other company, 1697 01:28:59,820 --> 01:29:03,500 because there's a bunch of guys standing in front of a roaster, 1698 01:29:03,500 --> 01:29:06,420 and it looks pretty small. 1699 01:29:09,620 --> 01:29:10,980 Yeah, I want to see too. 1700 01:29:10,980 --> 01:29:13,900 I'm going to guess that it's probably still a small company. 1701 01:29:13,900 --> 01:29:14,500 Oh, yeah. 1702 01:29:14,500 --> 01:29:15,460 You can make it. 1703 01:29:15,460 --> 01:29:18,500 They've got five dudes standing around. 1704 01:29:18,500 --> 01:29:20,740 Five dudes roasting on a 40 pound roaster. 1705 01:29:20,740 --> 01:29:24,020 It appears to be a 15 kilo would be my guess. 1706 01:29:24,020 --> 01:29:24,900 Let me see. 1707 01:29:24,900 --> 01:29:26,500 Yeah. 1708 01:29:26,500 --> 01:29:28,340 All right,

even a 15? 1712 01:29:32,580 --> 01:29:34,300 It does look tiny. 1713 01:29:34,300 --> 01:29:36,540 15 pound, maybe? 1714 01:29:36,540 --> 01:29:38,700 Looks like a tiny little roaster. 1715 01:29:38,700 --> 01:29:39,980 Isn't that funny? 1716 01:29:39,980 --> 01:29:41,580 You said these are on their website? 1717 01:29:41,580 --> 01:29:43,900 Yeah, this is the Tenterra website. 1718 01:29:43,900 --> 01:29:45,900 Maybe this was back in the day. 1719 01:29:45,900 --> 01:29:48,340 These are old photos. 1720 01:29:48,340 --> 01:29:50,740 Company started in 2019, right? 1721

that's a super tiny roaster. 1725 01:29:59,820 --> 01:30:02,700 Why, how do they employ five people on their tiny ass 1726 01:30:02,700 --> 01:30:03,220 roaster? 1727 01:30:03,220 --> 01:30:04,460 That's what I was looking at, right. 1728 01:30:04,460 --> 01:30:05,620 Maybe they're just buddies. 1729 01:30:07,900 --> 01:30:09,940 I just looked up Snoop Dogg's net worth, finally. 1730 01:30:09,940 --> 01:30:11,220 Does anybody want to guess? 1731 01:30:11,220 --> 01:30:12,500 1.2 billion. 1732 01:30:12,500 --> 01:30:14,340 400 million. 1733 01:30:14,340 --> 01:30:16,580 You guys

01:30:21,820 10 million. 1738 01:30:21,820 --> 01:30:22,940 Well, he's richer than that. 1739 01:30:22,940 --> 01:30:24,620 I think he's pulling a sugar night. 1740 01:30:27,940 --> 01:30:31,820 150 million is his net worth, which is very respectable. 1741 01:30:31,820 --> 01:30:33,300 Very respectable. 1742 01:30:33,300 --> 01:30:34,780 Very. 1743 01:30:34,780 --> 01:30:36,580 OK, 10 teracoffee.

01:30:40,460 --> 01:30:41,540 That's pretty funny. 1748 01:30:41,540 --> 01:30:42,700 110. 1749 01:30:42,700 --> 01:30:45,860 I'm giving him genius status, 124. 1750 01:30:45,860 --> 01:30:48,380 You guys are both low on this one. 1751 01:30:48,380 --> 01:30:53,220 It's allegedly 147, according to someone on Twitter. 1752 01:30:53,220 --> 01:30:56,460 That's higher than Albert Einstein. 1753 01:30:56,460 --> 01:30:58,940 Really? 1754 01:30:58,940 --> 01:31:00,900 Just so you know. 1755 01:31:00,900 --> 01:31:02,540 Imagine how brilliant he would be 1756 01:31:02,540 --> 01:31:04,180 if he wasn't stoned all the time. 1757 01:31:04,180 --> 01:31:05,780 He'd be doing the quantum. 1758 01:31:05,780 --> 01:31:06,500 Particle physics. 1759 01:31:06,500 --> 01:31:07,000 Yes. 1760 01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:12,240 10 teracoffee has no pictures of themselves. 1761 01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:13,560 It's all marketing. 1762 01:31:13,560 --> 01:31:14,960 OK, and titties? 1763 01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:17,160 You got titties? 1764 01:31:17,160 --> 01:31:20,560 Or is that they just saved that for Indo? 1765 01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:24,920 I mean, there are some kind of sexy surfer type women. 1766 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:26,160 Those are athletes. 1767 01:31:26,160 --> 01:31:27,760 No, no, they're not actually surfing. 1768 01:31:27,760 --> 01:31:30,200 They're just like the type of women I would imagine hanging 1769 01:31:30,200 --> 01:31:30,760 out with surfers. 1770 01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:32,880 I'm sure Snoop was responsible for all those ladies. 1771 01:31:32,880 --> 01:31:35,960 But this was a long time ago, 182 weeks ago. 1772 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:39,280 So they have seemed to have remodeled their image. 1773 01:31:39,280 --> 01:31:42,080 Should we do the olfactory reveal? 1774 01:31:42,080 --> 01:31:43,320 Oh, we kind of did a little bit. 1775 01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:43,820 We did. 1776 01:31:43,820 --> 01:31:44,680 Now we can do the actual. 1777 01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:47,880 Maybe he just has a babe for a girlfriend, 1778 01:31:47,880 --> 01:31:51,440 because maybe it's just a bunch of pictures of her and her 1779 01:31:51,440 --> 01:31:53,200 on 10 Tara's website. 1780 01:31:53,200 --> 01:31:56,600 If his family is worth $150 billion or whatever, 1781 01:31:56,600 --> 01:31:59,040 then I would hope that he did have a hot girlfriend. 1782 01:31:59,040 --> 01:32:00,880 It's only $1.5 billion. 1783 01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:03,400 Maybe it's one of Snoop's ladies. 1784 01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:05,080 Old favors. 1785 01:32:05,080 --> 01:32:09,040 I would love to be married to someone worth $1.5 billion. 1786 01:32:09,040 --> 01:32:10,200 That makes me feel great. 1787 01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:12,680 I'm just messing with you. 1788 01:32:12,680 --> 01:32:13,840 She would hate it. 1789 01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:17,280 I'm perfectly fine being married to someone worth $1.5 1790 01:32:17,280 --> 01:32:19,000 thousands. 1791 01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,160 I would love to be divorced from somebody 1792 01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:23,720 who is worth $1.5 billion. 1793 01:32:23,720 --> 01:32:24,800 That'd be nice. 1794 01:32:24,800 --> 01:32:27,360 Little alimony? 1795 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:28,840 Yeah. 1796 01:32:28,840 --> 01:32:30,120 Oh, yeah, you're right. 1797 01:32:30,120 --> 01:32:30,620 Mm-hmm. 1798 01:32:34,120 --> 01:32:34,880 It's not bad. 1799 01:32:34,880 --> 01:32:38,440 I predict that it's going to require Uncle Nearest Whiskey. 1800 01:32:38,440 --> 01:32:40,920 You know, it's not bad. 1801 01:32:40,920 --> 01:32:41,600 It's not bad? 1802 01:32:41,600 --> 01:32:43,720 It's not bad. 1803 01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:47,120 Is it the schiznit, or is it just the schiznit? 1804 01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:53,040 It's got a robust roast on this guy. 1805 01:32:53,040 --> 01:32:53,680 Yeah. 1806 01:32:53,680 --> 01:32:54,180 Yeah. 1807 01:32:54,180 --> 01:32:55,520 Definitely has dark rose vibes. 1808 01:32:55,520 --> 01:32:56,020 Yeah. 1809 01:32:56,020 --> 01:32:59,040 Do you know Sumatran coffees have a very unique flavor? 1810 01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:02,480 Typically, they're really heavy on tobacco and vanilla. 1811 01:33:02,480 --> 01:33:06,680 And I find that this does not shy away from that. 1812 01:33:06,680 --> 01:33:07,200 OK, good. 1813 01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:09,000 Sumatran coffees are typically what 1814 01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:14,240 are used as an ingredient or a base for espresso coffee. 1815 01:33:14,240 --> 01:33:16,600 That's a pretty common base for an espresso blend. 1816 01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:17,200 Add in, yeah. 1817 01:33:17,200 --> 01:33:21,960 It usually doesn't take a lot, like 10%, 20% of an espresso 1818 01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:23,880 blend. 1819 01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:30,080 Because this little tobacco-y funk goes a long way. 1820 01:33:30,080 --> 01:33:30,840 Not a bad way. 1821 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:31,360 Uh-huh. 1822 01:33:31,360 --> 01:33:32,240 But it is. 1823 01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:35,440 One of my favorite genres. 1824 01:33:35,440 --> 01:33:38,840 It's a little dark for my general preferences. 1825 01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:40,280 So I'm going to get some milk. 1826 01:33:40,280 --> 01:33:41,640 Yeah, I think I'll join you in. 1827 01:33:41,640 --> 01:33:42,400 But it's not bad. 1828 01:33:42,400 --> 01:33:43,040

Yeah. 1832 01:33:46,780 --> 01:33:49,320 Like a latte, cappuccino, this would be really tasty with. 1833 01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:50,400 You know what this is? 1834 01:33:50,400 --> 01:33:51,440 Traditional. 1835 01:33:51,440 --> 01:33:51,940 Mm-hmm. 1836 01:33:51,940 --> 01:33:52,440 Yeah. 1837 01:33:55,200 --> 01:33:58,800 We like to taste the coffee black. 1838 01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:01,160 If we're not ready to give it a no bad review, 1839 01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:04,000 then we might add some cream, some sugar, some whiskey, 1840 01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:06,560 some whipped cream, whatever it takes 1841 01:34:06,560 --> 01:34:09,960 to get to the point where we can give it a no bad review. 1842 01:34:09,960 --> 01:34:12,840 So that's our grating system, which is great. 1843 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:14,280 You know, we've got a process. 1844 01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:16,000 Right now, kind of working our way through it. 1845 01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:17,800 Right now, working our way through this process. 1846 01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:18,300 Yes. 1847 01:34:18,300 --> 01:34:19,840 You know, getting a little milk. 1848 01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:21,820 Ooh, heavy whipping cream. 1849 01:34:21,820 --> 01:34:23,360 You've got heavy whipping cream. 1850 01:34:23,360 --> 01:34:24,360 Only for you. 1851 01:34:24,360 --> 01:34:25,880 Thank you. 1852 01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:29,040 So I added some milk, cream, whatever. 1853 01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:31,440 Milk with 1% cream. 1854 01:34:31,440 --> 01:34:32,960 Mostly water. 1855 01:34:32,960 --> 01:34:35,320 That's true. 1856 01:34:35,320 --> 01:34:37,440 Did you know that whole milk is only 3%? 1857 01:34:37,440 --> 01:34:42,680 So this is like the difference between 1% and whole milk 1858 01:34:42,680 --> 01:34:44,120 is like hardly anything. 1859 01:34:44,120 --> 01:34:46,920 Or it's 200%, depending on how you look at it. 1860 01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:52,000 I mean, if we're going on a scale of 100% no. 1861 01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:55,240 If you're 100% is what you've got in your hand right now. 1862 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:55,880 I love it. 1863 01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:59,480 Versus 1% to 3%? 1864 01:34:59,480 --> 01:35:00,160 Come on. 1865 01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:04,960 We're talking a 2% difference between whole milk and 1%. 1866 01:35:04,960 --> 01:35:08,600 We are talking a 99% difference, though, between. 1867 01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:11,880 The milk that I added to it, you know, 1868 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:13,080 needs a little extra help. 1869 01:35:13,080 --> 01:35:15,040 I feel like it could use a little sugar. 1870 01:35:15,040 --> 01:35:18,560 It's just like a little robust for me. 1871 01:35:18,560 --> 01:35:19,720 Yeah. 1872 01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:23,640 It's like throwing an ice cube at a house fire. 1873 01:35:23,640 --> 01:35:24,800 You know? 1874 01:35:24,800 --> 01:35:26,760 It's really not going to do much to it. 1875 01:35:26,760 --> 01:35:28,080 That house is burning. 1876 01:35:28,080 --> 01:35:33,520 I feel like if I had, you know what I would really like is like, 1877 01:35:33,520 --> 01:35:36,760 I feel like I would like some whipped cream. 1878 01:35:36,760 --> 01:35:38,000 You have whipped cream, too? 1879 01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:38,520 Holy cow. 1880 01:35:38,520 --> 01:35:41,160 You've got all the big guns today. 1881 01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:43,880 I'm just going to have, I'm going to start out with sugar. 1882 01:35:43,880 --> 01:35:44,920 I tried it black. 1883 01:35:44,920 --> 01:35:48,440 I didn't love it. 1884 01:35:48,440 --> 01:35:52,520 As someone who enjoys a darker roast, it was too dark for me. 1885 01:35:52,520 --> 01:35:57,760 So I added some heavy whipping cream, and this is not bad. 1886 01:35:57,760 --> 01:35:58,280 OK. 1887 01:35:58,280 --> 01:36:01,880 I think it is like a good base for a cappuccino or something, 1888 01:36:01,880 --> 01:36:04,120 but not something you want to drink on your own. 1889 01:36:04,120 --> 01:36:06,760 It's some whipping cream, because the milk itself, you know, 1890 01:36:06,760 --> 01:36:07,600 just wasn't enough. 1891 01:36:07,600 --> 01:36:09,960 Didn't stand up enough. 1892 01:36:09,960 --> 01:36:11,680 I do have vanilla. 1893 01:36:11,680 --> 01:36:14,320 You know, I'm good here. 1894 01:36:14,320 --> 01:36:16,680 I kind of want to go back to the gin and juice 1895 01:36:16,680 --> 01:36:18,720 that I was having earlier today, though. 1896 01:36:18,720 --> 01:36:19,600 You know? 1897 01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:22,160 Does he have his own gin line? 1898 01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:23,240 Not that I'm aware of. 1899 01:36:23,240 --> 01:36:24,280 I didn't come across that. 1900 01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:25,720 Shockingly. 1901 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:28,120 How is that not like the first thing he started? 1902 01:36:28,120 --> 01:36:29,240 It's crazy. 1903 01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:31,760 There should be a juice line and a gizz line. 1904 01:36:31,760 --> 01:36:34,760 And a gizz line? 1905 01:36:34,760 --> 01:36:35,280 All right. 1906 01:36:35,280 --> 01:36:39,720 This just took a turn that we never take on this podcast. 1907 01:36:39,720 --> 01:36:42,480 Snoop Dogg and Uncle Nearest Whiskey together, 1908 01:36:42,480 --> 01:36:44,440 is that a thing that we're trying? 1909 01:36:44,440 --> 01:36:45,520 Yes, we could try it. 1910 01:36:45,520 --> 01:36:47,040 Sure. 1911 01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:49,320 I think that's an appropriate combo. 1912 01:36:49,320 --> 01:36:50,680 I know he's into cognac. 1913 01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:52,440 I don't know if he's into whiskey. 1914 01:36:52,440 --> 01:36:54,240 I feel like he'd be OK with it. 1915 01:36:54,240 --> 01:36:56,120 I think because it's Uncle Nearest, yes. 1916 01:36:56,120 --> 01:36:56,760 Yes. 1917 01:36:56,760 --> 01:36:59,920 I think that's why he'd be OK with it. 1918 01:36:59,920 --> 01:37:02,560 But maybe he's into Jack Daniels or whatever, too. 1919 01:37:02,560 --> 01:37:05,440 I don't know. 1920 01:37:05,440 --> 01:37:06,880 Oh, thank you. 1921 01:37:06,880 --> 01:37:10,960 A lot of cream and a healthy shot of Uncle Nearest. 1922 01:37:10,960 --> 01:37:12,160 Mm. 1923 01:37:12,160 --> 01:37:12,680 Is that good? 1924 01:37:12,680 --> 01:37:13,240 So good. 1925 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:14,320 It is a lot of whiskey. 1926 01:37:14,320 --> 01:37:15,720 Thank you. 1927 01:37:15,720 --> 01:37:17,720 I feel like Marcus always puts a lot in. 1928 01:37:17,720 --> 01:37:18,520 I do, too, though. 1929 01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:21,840 I think he was just matching what I normally do. 1930 01:37:21,840 --> 01:37:24,440 Yeah, so who is this coffee for, guys? 1931 01:37:24,440 --> 01:37:26,760 This coffee is, I mean, if you want it really dark, 1932 01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:28,200 it is really dark. 1933 01:37:28,200 --> 01:37:30,400 They only had one option on the website, right? 1934 01:37:30,400 --> 01:37:33,400 It was one dark roast, or you could get a cold brew. 1935 01:37:33,400 --> 01:37:34,600 I'm ready to drink. 1936 01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:35,800 Right? 1937 01:37:35,800 --> 01:37:36,320 I don't know. 1938 01:37:36,320 --> 01:37:36,880 It's not bad. 1939 01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:38,240 It's just extremely dark. 1940 01:37:38,240 --> 01:37:40,920 So you need to mix. 1941 01:37:40,920 --> 01:37:46,160 You need to make a cappuccino or mix a lot of cream with it. 1942 01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:46,880 It's fine. 1943 01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:50,840 I think it's the perfect coffee for after a yacht party. 1944 01:37:50,840 --> 01:37:51,800 Oh. 1945 01:37:51,800 --> 01:37:52,400 Next day. 1946 01:37:52,400 --> 01:37:53,000 Next morning. 1947 01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:53,920 Yeah. 1948 01:37:53,920 --> 01:37:55,040 Yeah, a little pick me up. 1949 01:37:55,040 --> 01:37:55,680 You need something serious. 1950 01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:56,440 You're still in the boat. 1951 01:37:56,440 --> 01:37:57,720 You're still in the fucking dock. 1952 01:37:57,720 --> 01:37:58,760 You haven't left. 1953 01:37:58,760 --> 01:38:00,240 Thought about leaving last night. 1954 01:38:00,240 --> 01:38:01,080 Am I seasick? 1955 01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:01,960 Am I hungover? 1956 01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:02,720 Is it both? 1957 01:38:02,720 --> 01:38:03,560 Right. 1958 01:38:03,560 --> 01:38:06,920 It's me and 17 ladies on a yacht. 1959 01:38:06,920 --> 01:38:10,280 I think I might owe them $1,500. 1960 01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:11,240 For their time. 1961 01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:22,040 I think this coffee's for Heria when you need to run shit. 1962 01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:22,880 Yeah. 1963 01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:25,160 So really is. 1964 01:38:25,160 --> 01:38:27,440 It's building dreams. 1965 01:38:27,440 --> 01:38:28,880 You're going after them. 1966 01:38:28,880 --> 01:38:29,640 I get it. 1967 01:38:29,640 --> 01:38:31,560 I get why it's for building dreams. 1968 01:38:31,560 --> 01:38:34,800 You just need to stay awake for like 18 hours 1969 01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:38,080 and move a shit ton of crack. 1970 01:38:38,080 --> 01:38:39,760 I think when you have a shit ton of crack, 1971 01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:41,480 you don't need coffee to stay up. 1972 01:38:41,480 --> 01:38:43,280 Oh. 1973 01:38:43,280 --> 01:38:43,800 OK. 1974 01:38:43,800 --> 01:38:45,800 Well, that's our episode, guys. 1975 01:38:45,800 --> 01:38:46,800 Yeah, I'm sorry. 1976 01:38:46,800 --> 01:38:48,920 I wish I had something nicer to say about the coffee. 1977 01:38:48,920 --> 01:38:49,840 Yeah. 1978 01:38:49,840 --> 01:38:51,200 You know what? 1979 01:38:51,200 --> 01:38:54,200 I think that there's a time and place for dark roasted coffee. 1980 01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:56,520 Like I said, I think this coffee is great with milk, 1981 01:38:56,520 --> 01:38:59,800 and I think it'd be really good with some vanilla. 1982 01:38:59,800 --> 01:39:03,480 Sumatran coffee has a very distinct flavor. 1983 01:39:03,480 --> 01:39:04,400 So it's kind of tough. 1984 01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:08,080 You either really like it, or you really don't. 1985 01:39:08,080 --> 01:39:10,320 So it's a divisive coffee. 1986 01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:12,680 There's a coffee out there for everything, though. 1987 01:39:12,680 --> 01:39:16,680 I'm not going to be able to use that say that Goshen GFA 1988 01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:21,280 coffee if I want a latte or an iced vanilla coffee. 1989 01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:22,280 That's not going to work. 1990 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:23,560 That would be terrible. 1991 01:39:23,560 --> 01:39:25,680 I mean, Sumatra is a really important ingredient 1992 01:39:25,680 --> 01:39:28,840 in Starbucks' repertoire. 1993 01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:31,920 I actually used to drink the Sumatra in Starbucks 1994 01:39:31,920 --> 01:39:32,760 all the time. 1995 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:33,280 I loved it. 1996 01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:35,440 It was as black as the night. 1997 01:39:35,440 --> 01:39:35,960 Yeah. 1998 01:39:35,960 --> 01:39:36,440 Yeah. 1999 01:39:36,440 --> 01:39:38,240 So that's a time and a place. 2000 01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:39,400 That's for a lot of people. 2001 01:39:39,400 --> 01:39:41,360 So this is great if you like a darker roast. 2002 01:39:41,360 --> 01:39:42,280 Awesome. 2003 01:39:42,280 --> 01:39:45,000 And you get to support Snoop
