How you doing, Sar? I'm doing well. Thanks for having me. I know that when you get called the goat, that means I always think the O and that stands for old, So I will accept it only for that reason. Oh you're still young. Try So okay, let's just start here. Big scandal in the NBA for people who aren't aware or don't know all the details, what the hell just happened? Yeah, you know, I mean, you wake up this morning and and you know, so often in the NBA we're shocked with things, right, I mean February Luka Don should just traded, you know, But it's usually that kind of stuff where a guy is traded or years ago Kevin Durant signs with the Warriors, you know what I mean. So it's always related to positive things, really, I mean things that are related to basketball. Where this obviously with Chauncey Billups and Terry Rosier from from Shaker Heights and and Damon Jones previously of the Cavaliers, and you know, a federal gambling probe which we had heard Terry Rogier linked to it before, but it seemed like he was, you know, just kind of a subject of the investigation and not like the key guy in it. It was stunning, you know, and what a terrible look for the league, you know, after everybody opened. Obviously, we had the small openers the other night with four teams playing, and then last night was the big opening game for everybody. Everybody played, and then the next morning this comes out with a federal investigation and arrests made and you know, links to the mafia. It's just it's just a bad, a bad look. And obviously, you know, as far as we know, there's only a couple of people involved. But I mean you're talking about a head coach of one of your teams, right, Chauncey Billups, a legend in the game, a guy who's you know, has a reputation for being in a league full of great guys, one of the really most rounded, nice people in the league. So you know this, this obviously really hurts when you're going into twenty five twenty six season and guys you think about, you know, they just got a new media rights deal, right, I mean, NBC and Amazon are probably like, what's going on here? Right? You know, So beyond that, it's hard to tell now, you know, I'm not trying to make excuses, but these are allegations, right, and until this is proven, you know, you still have some ability to say face. But social media, of course, we know that nobody gets a fair trial, right as soon as soon as something like this comes out, you're guilty is charged, right, So that narrative is a bad look for the league. And you know, the if this were local law enforcement or something, I think I might be a little more like, well, let's see how it plays out. But you know, the FBI rarely rarely misses, right, I mean you're talking about federal investigation. So you know how if you're obviously fans of the NBA are thinking, well, what about the integrity of the game. Maybe these are just the guys who got caught, you know, fair or not. Those are the questions that are people are asking, and it it just it hurts the integrity of the league, whether it was just these two or three individuals that have been arrested, you know, and really hope it ends there and I suspect it will, but it just, you know, it makes you wonder about some things about the league, especially, you know, especially Chauncey Billups. It's like, gosh, head coach one game into the season, coach one game, Yeah, he got arrested. It's just, you know, it's it's hard to explain how obviously I read the headline the NBA rocked by these arrests, and that's exactly what That's the right word rocked, because that's that's where it is right now. Yeah. Absolutely, We're talking with Sam Anko from mooswire dot com. So there's two kind of separate but linked cases because some of the the people involved are connected to. So you have the Chauncey Billups. Situation where it is alleged that he and I believe Damon Jones was involved in that as. Well, allegedly. Were involved in a poker game rigging scandal that involved four of the five families of the mobs. Like this is like some movie stuff, right, And then you have the Terry Roseier alleged situation. And to me, and I'd love your thoughts, Sam, I think it's all bad and dangerous and damning for the league. But to me, the. Terry Roseier allegation and the Damon Jones part about him allegedly leaking injury information, and Chauncey is alleged to do to have done the same thing. I think for the league directly, those two things, in particular, Terry Rose, you're allegedly faking an injury to cover her the under and Damon Jones and Chauncy Billips allegedly providing inside information for people to be able to bet on. I think those are the things. The poker thing is bad and doing stuff with the mob is real. Real bad. Yeah, I think those. Two when it comes to the league itself, those are probably the most damning and damaging to the image of the league. What you're what are you saying that? Absolutely? Yeah, And when you're talking about the NBA itself, right, that's that's where the league itself would be particularly concerned, Which is, you know, and it's easy to do in one hand, you don't think about it, where like say, you know, there are top times where I get information about who's starting tonight or who's hurt, and not as often now. But when I was really like headfirst into the Cavs beat, the PR would say, you know, here these five guys are starting, you know, to kind of let you tweet it out before the game. Well, if they're telling me. You know, at that point, they obviously know who's starting two hours before the game. So somebody like Chauncey Billups, for instance, would know. Damon Jones if he's you know, Lebron innocently saying yeah, I'm out tonight, you know, then then Damon Jones allegedly using that to feed that information to you know, somebody betting on the game or whatever. It starts as innocent, maybe like hey, you know what is Lebron on playing tonight? You know what I mean, can come across as innocent. But if you think about, okay, well there's a lot of money at play here, and I work for the league and work in the league, then it becomes a crime, right, And that's where the NBA, You're exactly right, that's where that is a bad look even worse than the poker thing. Like you said that the gambling or the poker thing is bad, but this when it comes to the NBA, you know, it raises that level of suspicion. And we saw that this year, you know, with the Guardians and and you know, you just hope, you just hope it goes away sooner rather than later. If you're the NBA if you're the Portland Trailblazers. Yeah, I mean as an organization, it's like man, our head coach who we just signed to a contract extension, really had us on the up and up. It's just I'm sure it's difficult for everybody to process and it's it's stunning. We're talking with Sam Amiko from hoopsware dot com. Dante go right ahead. So Sam, a couple of high level questions here for you. What do you think this does for Adam Silver? We talked about the league, but how do you think this reflects on Adam Silver's time as commissioner? And I'm sure you've heard these rumors, but there had been rumors for a while now that maybe even after Adam Silver was done as the commissioner in the NBA, maybe he would want to look at other jobs, like succeeding Bob Iger at Disney, Like, what do you think this How does this taint his tenure and maybe his future? Yeah, that's a great question. You know, I think that anytime something like this happens under your reign or you know, when you're the head of an organization, it's obviously going to reflect poorly on you. Fair or not. I don't. I don't think it's going to taint him too much. You look at you know, years ago, when David Stern was a commissioner and the NBA had the whole Tim Donahey officiating scandal, Right, this was something that David Stern had to fight off and it became part of his legacy, even though you know, he really had nothing to do with it. Here you had officials betting on or at least one official betting on games, and that that became part of his legacy and it probably led to a little bit of an earlier retirement for him. You know. So it's gonna depending on how far this goes and how long this goes. If this is something the worst case scenario for the NBA is this drags on for you know, six months. The best way to get over something like this is for it to be resolved quickly so that people can forget about it. And I think a lot of basketball fans, probably the majority of them, we love the games, right, I mean, we're watching the games and we're gonna view this as nothing more than, oh, these guys really screwed up. Now give me, you know, give me the Pacers and the Thunder tonight in the finals rematch, you know, so I think that we focus more on that, and that could be to answer your question, you know, more of a saving grace for somebody like Adam Silver, who who if I had to take a stab at it, had no prior knowledge of any of this, you know what I mean. And it's really not his job tack this policeman for every head assistant, coach and every player. His jobs to make sure that the league is popular and you know, making money. That's his main job. And to institute help institute rules with the help of the team owners and the basketball operations part of the league office, which now of course is James Jones, former cav Is. So you know, I think that's really what his main goal is. But yeah, something like this, if it drags on fairer not to him, I think it will definitely impact, you know, it could impact the worst case scenario, his future as the commissioner of the league, other positions as you mentioned, you know, like if he was going to replace a Bob Igar at Disney, or replace anybody in any kind of corporate job, in a big position. I certainly think this is something that would impact him if it drags out, If it goes away fairly quickly, you know, it'll be forgotten pretty quickly, do you. Think And this is kind of also about silver, but also the NBA everything now is sponsored by these gambling platforms, right, So I mean we've got fan Duel here and Draft Kings there and Caesar's and MGM. Right, everything is sponsored by this. But also as the NBA we know is looking to expand, right, We've heard about potentially investments into Europe or expansion into Europe or even Middle Eastern wealth funds right within global investments. So like, do you. Think that the maybe now this cloud if it doesn't go quickly then also just the infusion of money to the point where it's like everybody's at least a little complicit because the gambling platforms are everywhere, and now foreign investment, do you think all of this could maybe taint some of that or maybe draw questions like darbyl was saying earlier to like the integrity of the league, or maybe should we hold off on certain expansions even too news like do you think this could halt plans? Yeah? Yeah, certainly. I you know, I almost have no doubt. We could start with NBC and Amazon, you know, raising eyebrows already, you know, and here they are a game. Amazon hasn't even broadcast the game yet, but you know, here we are brand new season, brand new media rights deal, brand new partners, you know, and I'm sure that the league has had conversations with them like as hey, you know, you are, for lack of a better word, as all pro sports are. We are now in an era where sports are in bed with gambling companies, right, and betting companies, and and you know, look, I you know the show I'm on with with Booby Gibson's on FanDuel Sports Network, right, I mean, so this really covers everything now with sticking to the NBA. Obviously NFL, MLB hockey whatever, but sticking to the NBA. Yeah, I mean, this is this is a big deal our guys. You know, injury reports now have become a bigger deal because of all this gambling that's that's become legalized, and that the that the leagues are encouraging because they're now benefiting financially from these places. So yeah, to answer your question, certainly, questions among whether you know, expansion European expansion money from other countries involving the NBA, you know, certainly, And guys, let me tell you, I I never realized when I first got into this job, like you know what, I probably should have got a business degree too, because I am learning so much about this stuff as I'm writing writing about it, and it's it really is. It can be all encompassing and really impact the league in many ways, you know. And they always say, you know, a few and a few quote unquote bad apples can ruin the whole thing, you know, And and I don't think this is going to be that case, but worst case scenario, it could. It could really really harm the league financially. Talking with Sam A. Miko from hoops Wired dot com, Dante, I know you had another question go right here. Yeah, you mentioned Sam you mentioned earlier about the cloud that was the Tim Donaghy scandal and how that led to so many more conspiracies that maybe we're rooted in truth we don't know, like unfortunately, we probably never would know. Do you think that this because it's also about like what players are doing in games or what information did Chauncey Billups give or not give? Do you think that this going forward has the potential to hurt the league from a perception perspective, just in that. I mean, as we all know as sports fans, if people if the casual fan thinks the game is rigged, they're out. Do you think that. This has a width on top you know, the Donague scandal twenty years ago. Now this if we don't know how widespread it is, but I'm sure people have can guess like maybe they weren't the only guys that the d o J seems to say that they're will be more arrest coming in this probe. So like, do you think that had this has the potential if it doesn't go quickly and quietly, to sort of ruin maybe the league's credibility long term? Yeah, I think I think it could for for a little bit. It has that potential. You know, to me, it always seems like casual fans of any sport are looking for reasons not to watch, you know what I mean, they're always and then they're always announcing why they don't watch. Yeah, but you know so, and I think that's you know, true of true of anything, but the NBA certainly, I don't know. Maybe it's just because I'm so entrenched in the NBA and have been for so long. I always feel like, you know what, do you care what the ratings are or care what the the uh? You know, Oh, I'm not watching the regular season toil the playoffs, or I'm not watching basketball because all they do is shoot threes. It's like, well, you know what, then don't watch. You know, all I care about is that I watch. I don't care what, you know what I mean? So I think that, yes, let me say this, the NBA, every sport, and particularly the NBA really needs casual fans because Diehard's like us, we're gonna watch anyway, you know, we're not. Hey, you know what. I don't love the idea of the ncit'son tournament, but I'll watch it, you know, and it's basketball. I love basketball. I'm gonna watch it. Whereas I feel like the casual fans are always looking for an excuse and this really gives them another reason to not pay attention. And you know, yes, you need those casual fans. You need those people who are gonna say, you know what. I don't follow the cabs super close, but go into a game on a Friday night with my kids and spending the money and spending the T shirts and then maybe getting into it more. From that standpoint, you need those people because those are the people who are really making you money. You know, the diehards. We're always going to be there. You don't need to keep us. We're going to, you know, if the league, regardless of what happens with the league, because we love the sport, We're going to continuously follow it. So I know I'm kind of talking in circles here, but I do believe that, yes, you know, it has that potential when somebody may view it like, well, this is you know. I remember after Tim Donahey scandal, people were just like, you know, this is just like WWE. It's like almost like it's scripted, you know, and would lose interest. And I'd have friends who would say that, and I never believed that. Whether I was right or wrong, I don't know, but I don't think the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder are going to be the teams that the league would script into the finals. So, you know, I've never really believed that, But you know, people on the outside that are just kind of I almost say, like I'm a casual baseball fan like, you know, and if I when I see stuff like this, I'm kind of like, what's going on there? You know, I don't think I'd lose interest, but it would make me probably second guess. If it were something that was, you know, a lot more arrests than this and a lot bigger scope than than what happened today, then I would probably be like, yeah, that that league's a mess, and I'm not interested. But I think it would have to get bigger for that to happen. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that makes sense. Sam. I know you have you have sources with cash, you have sources across the league. What are they saying about this? What are what are people in the league saying? How are they reacting to this? Uh? You know, the people in the league that I've contacted today and talked with today are like us right there, They're stunned, just no clue, especially you know, with Terry Rogier a little bit only because it's not as shocking it seems like to the people that I've communicated with, because he had already been linked to some stuff, you know, over the summer, this kind of stuff was starting to be brought up about him, so we had heard his name, but the Chauncey Billups stuff. Nobody seemed to know about that, and that that really caught people off guard. The people who do know Damon Jones were also surprised by this. You know, listen on the team planes sometimes, you know, there are some really really intense poker games, and there's been times, not with anybody currently in the NBA that I'm aware of, but you know, ten fifteen years ago, some of these poker games and this is just normal. I mean, this isn't bad, but they were throwing a lot of money on the table and it would get intense. Sometimes, you know, the coaches and the gms would have to say, you know what, no more poker on the plane. It's getting too intense. Guys are getting too heated. So I mean, you know what I mean. Wow, So yeah, this is this has been an ongoing thing when you know, people might see Damon Jones on the team playing playing poker and getting intense and stuff, but nobody pictured this. Nobody envisioned it leading to any kind of federal probe involving games or any of this. So it's really it's really interesting how all of a sudden we've legalized this and it's become such a bigger part of sports, and now now all of a sudden, athletes and coaches are getting arrested, whereas before we didn't hear about any of this. So I don't know if that's connected or not, but I just find it very coincidental that we weren't having these issues until all of a sudden. You know, maybe in college sports, before the college athletes started getting paid, you know, there were the scandals and fifty seventy years ago or whatever. But now it's like, all of a sudden, we're hearing about this and everything. We're hearing about baseball, NBA and you know, NFL who knows? So to me, that's the most interesting part. And I think that, you know, the people around the league that I was able to communicate with or are just as shocked as the rest of us. We're talking with Sam Anko from hohoswired dot com and before we let you go, we've been talking so much about basketball without talking about actual basketball. Correct, Oh, let's transition to that real quick. Tonight at seven point thirty, the Cavaliers play. The Brooklyn Nets. Obviously, they played the Knicks for the season opener. They lost one nineteen to one eleven. I have been seeing some folks that are already like wanting to call you what's coming? I know what's coming ahead, So. What do you what are your thoughts? Man? Like, obviously it's too early for people to be pulling the fire alarm. Correct, absolutely, yes they're gonna anyway, But go ahead. Who was your thoughts? What was your thoughts on the game? What are you in this very very very early assessment? And also to like, the Cavaliers were missing key players, so you can't really like there's. So much more to that, but just your your thoughts on the game. Your thoughts on how the Cavs look good and bad, and also your thoughts on the freak out that some people are having right now. Yeah. Well, first of all, as far as freak outs, I learned to stop trying to control that years ago because I was like, I'm like, you know what, the word fan is short for fanatical, right, so that means not much perspective, right, So I just let him freak out because it's like, listen, this is this is almost like just a small extension of the preseason, right, if not a big extension of it. It's just you've got, we're going to be doing this. Baseball is going to end and start again before we even get to the playoffs. So there's such a long way to go. We're going to be doing this regular season part all the way to the middle of April, and you have all the way until the mid or Earlybruary to make trades and revamp things that you think you need. The Calves did that last year, right, they were rolling and they're like, yeah, well we're going to go out and get DeAndre Hunter because we think we we still need a piece. So so much can and will change between the first game in game eighty two. Now that said, the first game, ninety percent of what I saw I liked from the Calves. Even when they got down, I'm like, look, this is the way it's supposed to go. They don't have their all star point guard. They don't have whether you say DeAndre Hunter or Max Struce is your starter, then you don't have another starter. And whichever one of those guys isn't starting is your is your six man? Is your best six man, your best guy off the bench. So you're missing three guys that are very valuable and you're playing at Madison Square Garden. You're not even at home, and it's the season opener, and you have have new faces like Lonzo Ball coming in, Larry and anst junior obviously been here before, but you know he hasn't played with this group. And then you have, of course, you're working in your rookie Tyreese Proctor. So when they started to get fall behind him like it's over, and then all of a sudden, Donovan Mitchell goes nuts, which is a credit in the third quarter of credit to his greatness and a credit to obviously the coaching staff as well for making those adjustments, because the Knicks were really throwing a lot of bodies at him in that first half and he wasn't able to score. So I thought there were a lot of promising things, just as promising if they had won. I just kept, guys, I kept sitting there thinking, you know, if this if the if the Knicks came to Cleveland and we're without three of their top players in Cleveland, uh, and gave the Calves this good of a game, as good of the game as the Calves gave the Knicks last night, I'd be like worried about the Calves a little more even if the Calves had won, because I'd be like, they're without three of their guys and they're playing us really tough in our building, and you know we should have blown them out by now. So I thought the Calves looked like the sixty four and eighteen team. You know, it's just you just happened to open the season, as opposed to say at Brooklyn or at you just happened opening your season had a title contender like you are. So one of those teams had to lose. And I thought, for the most part, the fact that the Calves were there with a minute and a half left, missed the three that would have put them down. One I thought that they were for the most part was good. Look Jared Allen, you know he's going to have that cloud over him when you go to you went to a place where you said the lights are too bright two years ago, and then you go in there and you don't. You look like you're not ready. Yeah, you're gonna hear it from the fans. It's fair not you're going to hear it. And you know that's that's chart though, And I don't say that as a negative. He's a guy who's gonnat. I have nights like that. That's just who he is. And I think that he really misses Garland. He works very very well with with Darius Garland. I think that that hurts his productivity. But he's got to and he knows this. We're not saying anything he doesn't know. He's got to do better than four rebounds, and I'm sure he will, you know, I'm sure he'll get those double doubles like he always does. It's just first game, you know, after a year, after team said you weren't physical enough or fan said you weren't physical enough, and then come out and have four points and four rebounds. Yeah, that's it's only human nature. You're gonna hear about it. Yeah, yeah, that's true. That's true. All right, sir.

And I can start with Tony Braxton, Brandy, Jojo, Mario Neo. And Tank. These are all well, I'll say, at least yea three of them. Potentially in my opinion, maybe four are considered in the legends, maybe two of them. So I would say Tony Braxton and Brandy at least two of those at least to get to remix her song. Like she didn't even do it. Everybody said, what's the name of that movie where you collect the Infinity Stones? Oh? Come on, was an Avengers movie? Right, yes, Aures, So that's what everybody is saying, that she has been collecting Infinity stones by collecting all these legends, And I thought that was so dope just thinking about this, if you take a step back and you think about this, darbym never in the history of life that I since I have been on this earth, I have never seen this done. I have never seen this happen where multiple legends have all done a remix to somebody's song. And not only did they all do a remix. It is all being collaborated into a remix. So she's calling it the get Ready for the Homage package includes remixes of the hit song folded and that does have every one of those artists that I did name, And that's that's awesome, man, that's this is her year, This is Kline's year, and I love that for her. So I have to tell y'all a secret. I don't know that song. You know what. I am absolutely upset right now for you to admit that on air, Dario. I don't know that song. I just had to keep it on. And y'all know I love music. I work in music. I'm around music all the time. I love all the people that you said. But I just don't know that song. No chance, you don't know that song. No, I don't. And I know I don't like Colonic, but I don't know that song. You y'all, y'all, y'all, damn, lie, y'all, lie listen. Don't get me upset now. I'm sorry, man, I just had to be honest. Okay, you know what, I cannot believe you know what. It's okay, it's me. I'm I'm I'm slacking in that department. I should have been had y'all hip, So that SA's on me. That's on me. I'm gonna get y'all hip. Though it sounds it sounds like something I would y'all, y'all know what I like. Y'all know what I. Listen, and you will and will like something I would like and will you will most definitely like. Listen. I'm on my way to send it right now. I just don't know it. So so don't don't come for me. Don't come for me, y'all, or my co hosts, don't come for me. Come for them, come for their next All right, listen. Dante already was in the hot seat, and now this is added to it. That I said, I couldn't lie to you. I really don't know it. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I had to be honest, Dante. I had to be honest. I'm like, I don't know the song. Yeah, there's no way you guys did not hear. It has been used multiple times on by so many people on their their pictures, their posts, they use it. You probably have heard it and did not realize it. Here's here's the truth, Robin and Dante. You can say how you feel on this as well. But most of the time when I'm on social I've gotten like people have gotten mad at me before. Sometimes they be like, well, you ain't like my stuff. I didn't see your stuff, because most of the time when I'm on social media, I'm either on social media to promote something or I'm on social media to interact with something, and then I get off like I'm not. I don't really doom scroll all like that. I try not to. Sometimes I do, but I try not to so a lot of times, unless you're someone that I interact with all the time, I'm not. Gonna see it. I'm just not gonna see. It because I don't. I don't use social media like that. So like the way I use it is to eat. To promote something, to say something that I'm thinking and feeling, or to interact with the people I regularly interact with. Sometimes I'll get on social media to say something and get. Off, you know what I mean. So, so Dante, I don't know what your if you have a similar process social people, but something like this may be in a bunch of people's videos that don't mean I saw it. And most of the time I'm going to scroll with the volume down anyway, because. If I'm scrolling on social media, it's probably because I'm like, oh, I'm watching the game or you know, And so most of my timeline is going to be filled with that not you know, Kanie So and I like her, I actually like her music, but I'm not I'm not hip at all. I just want you to know. I've been over here making faces the entire time. My facial expressions were very loud. You just I'll be I'll get y'all hip, though, I'm gonna get yall together. Okay, We're gonna. Move on to the next one. So the next topic is, actually, I don't know if you I mean to me, she is a legend to me, she is a legend. But in this story, ooh, sis down bad. But so Jennifer Lopez, y'all know who Jennifer Lopez is. Don't play with me, of course. Okay, okay, So Jennifer Lopez went to went onto an interview. She was on The Stern Show. So Jennifer Lopez got on there saying that she feels that she has never been loved or capable quote unquote. So her ex husband gets online and he goes in on says, he's saying. Way. He say. This is in reference about the recent interview on the or the Howard. Stern, He said, Stern, not even but anyway Stern show, where my ex wife Jennifer Lopez aka j LO said that she never been loved or capable. Stop putting us down. Stop putting me down with your victim card. The problem. It's not us, not me the problem. It's you. You the one who couldn't keep it in your pants. You have been loved a few times. You've been married four times. He should have put this after that. I don't know, but anyway, and have had countless relationships in between. You have had good relationships me for example. He like, there is actually like at least a solid four more pages, and he like he went on and on and on about her career and oh he went in on her, but to call her out and be like, you've been loved. He basically told her, you are the problem. You are the problem. I mean, yes, I won't. I'm in this situation. I will not disagree. I love j Low her music, Oh my god, I always rocked out to her music and I'll still play it like it just came out but married four times, diabolical, Like that's crazy. It's crazy four times and none of them worked out. I'm gonna let Dante go to this. One first, setting Dante up the. Lad Sir, listen all the old Jesus tell you back in the day, stay out in women's business. I tell you that for a reason, because you gonna be wrong. So my response is, yeah, well, I mean, Jayla's been married four times, a lot of public relationships. Mm hmm, that's her business. She probably, I mean, obviously there's she's either picking the wrong guy or something is wrong with her. You know what I'm saying, Like you always. Right here said you decided to lie, to cheat on me, and even though I stayed, I even tried to keep the marriage going and alive. Mm hmm. Maybe that's tough. I you know, bel is a that's an interesting that's she she's an interesting one because like she. It's gonna be another guy that's gonna take a chance. Yeah, because she's jail, it's gonna. Be another guy that's gonna take that chance. So you know, I that's tough, man. I thought I actually thought that it was gonna. Work with her. Alex Rodriguez. Man, I just kind of thought like, oh, they're kind of perfect for each other a little bit so. Well, and then she got back with Matt Damon. Uh that was Matt Damon, right. I can't keep putting, see what I'm saying, Like, I can't keep up. So she's she went back. She suckled the block. Thought that would work, but you know, hey, it'd be like that sometimes. Man. She just got to keep trying. Yeah, keep trying is crazy. Keep trying, it's crazy. Shoul should give up on finding love. I think she should begin learning to love herself. You're not going to find love unless you love yourself. And you can't just be like I do love me. You don't if you keep like if there's something you it appears there's something that you're searching for, like you can't find it. There's something you're searching for. Something's missing. Nothing is making you feel happy or like you feel If you feel that you have to go cheat. If you feel or this, you've been in four marriages. That means there is something that you you are missing and that is more than likely you need to find you. You need to love yourself first. Okay, So before we get doctor Robin the Psychiatrist started, I'm just saying we're gonna get out of it here and get ready for Dante's I Take. Stay tuned, you're listening to the. Outlaws, true sir, law, pay up. Welcome back, Welcome back, and listening to the Outlaws. Make sure that you subscribe to the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart, or wherever you get your podcast.

And now the first time in a long time, it's time for Dante's Hot Takes. Tell them the truth. Whether you like it or not, It's Dante's Hot Takes. On the out Laws radio show. Right. So, as the world turns in the NBA, it also, of course turns in Washington, d C. Where President Trump gave a pardon to Jau Japang, the CEO or former CEO of Binance. People just call him CZ it's easier. He's one of the wealthiest men in the world. But Binance is a cryptocurrency trading platform. People go on there and they trade bitcoin, ethereum, alternate coins, whatever, doge coin, whatever meme coined you have. And Binance came under screw me a few years ago because Binance, as the FCC and DOJ and other finance regulatory committees have said they have prioritized growth and profit over regulatory and anti money laundering policies. So CZ, the CEO former CEO, was actually convicted on a money laundering charge. And it has been alleged and Wiley accepted as true that Binance has allowed money laundering by notorious groups such as. Hamas and. Al Qaeda and other terrorist groups in the Middle East, and gun runners and anyone else who you could think of to money launder. Binance has the same turned the other way, and that's why their CEO was convicted. So Trump, President Trump providing Cz a pardon raised some eyebrows because Binance hosted and propped up Trump's mean coin, trump Coin on the site, and so a lot of people have been saying, well, this man is obviously very corrupt, he is allowed money laundering and fraud. Why is the president providing him a pardon. It's it's a it's a weird and uncomfortable situation, to say the least, because it reeks. I don't want to say it reaps a corruption on well it does. It reeks of something just doesn't smell right. Of all people why, And it's the White House's right, it's Trump's right. You can pardon whoever he wants, but it doesn't an administration that seems to kind of get in its own. Way over and over and over again. This isn't the right type of press or headline that you want. Although if you are going to get that kind of press, today is like the perfect day for that, seeing as the NBA dominated the rest of the headline. So if you were going to do this, I guess today would be the right day. The more I think about it, I just talked myself into it. Isn't that crazy. It's like, if you were gonna do this, because think about this, If this happens on a regular Tuesday, it dominates the press. Everybody's looking into it. Nobody's talking about this today. It's nobody. Nobody's concerned about it. I mean in political circles, yes, but you go on Twitter, or you look on social media or you know, whatever is you turn on the news. The primary thing that people are having conversations about our Can you believe what's happened in the NBA, I mean it dominated the majority of our show tonight or yesterday. I'm sorry, So. What is Trump's pardon of maybe a friend, maybe not, somebody who helped prop up his coin. We don't know. Maybe today is the right day to do it. I don't know. I kind of talked myself into it, Dario. We were talking before the show started on this topic. This is one of those things, especially like crypto in general, I've. Never like I've seen a bunch. Of people make a bunch of money from crypto, and people always like, man, you need to invest in crypto. I would if I understood it. I don't understand any of the stuff. I don't understand any of this stuff, man. So I'm just, like we were. Talking before the show started, like I'm kind of lost on the Like I don't know how it works. So I'm just, hey, I know Trump has a meme coin, it's the Trump Coin. I don't know how that works. I don't know how it makes money. I don't know, Like, I don't know what you buy with it. Like I don't know. I don't know anything. I'm like a newborn baby when it comes to this stuff. Bro. Like, it's just hard to because every time I try to understand it, because people are like, oh, once you get it, like you, it'll be fine. But when I try to understand it, it just makes my eyes glaze over. I'm just like, dude, I just I don't get it. I don't get I don't get what this guy did. I understand the money laundering part. I do get how cryptocurrency can be used to the londer money because it's it's harder to trace. I get that part, but I don't I don't get any of this stuff. Bro. Yeah, I would say, don't worry about the meme coins. That would be my non financial financial advice to everyone. Don't worry about the main coins. So so you're saying I shouldn't go and and rush and invest my savings in the hawk tool coin. No, please don't do that. Not do that. Let him know how to follow you, So follow.
