ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The fellas come in hot off a run club HBCU tour lap down Jefferson Street. Shute runs through practicing law in four states (and why Florida makes you retake the bar), Starlito shares how 75 Hard keeps humbling him (asleep on page three, back to day one) and meets Nike's Chris Bennett, whose book just named his next album. Then: health is gangster, as Wiz, Jim Jones, Styles P and Larry June make running and juicing the new flex.
ComplexCon turns ten with Ye on stage with Carti, fights in the recaps, and Mitchell & Ness chasing the hypebeasts. Is that culture or just capitalism? Plus creative control vs. a $10M check, Oracle saving the Nashville Symphony after Martha Ingram's passing, New York paying artists up to $10K, and Ultimate Warrior at 15.
Then the big debate: gender roles. Who takes out the trash, who handles the car, who cooks (one of the fellas hasn't since July 26, 2013), and everybody's dating non-negotiables. Shadow Work goes into dreams: snakes, signs, dads who visit, Jimmy's wet dream, and a blue lotus nightcap.
