And then suddenly it's like on the meet when you look at the meatets or whatever on the section on the menu Or sometimes they put a menu like up in the air at a like at a u restestaurant or whatever. If you're over at a u that a You know, you stop in a little restaurant, a little Mexican restaurant or you're at an u Oh or bees or so. They'll have on the menu, they have a menu up in the Air where everybody can read it at the same time Because some places if it's somepl they give you your own menu In some placays they want everybody to read it together Oh, like group reading or something You know, my family and stuff sometimes we'd go after a church and we'd all hold hands and read the menu together And people would yell fs or whatever at us, But that doesn't matter. Anyway, what am I talking about? Oh, so I was saying, dude, so the guy he I'll order the food the Al Pastor 'a I'minking oh, the pastor, right?

The rodeo originated in the sixteenth century cattle culture of Mexico. It evolved from the livestock roundup and branding practices of Spanish settlers and their Mexican ranch hands known as Vacqueros B meero The term itself comes from the Spanish verb roder meananing to encircle or round up. The transition from ranch work to competitive sport place in the American West following the Civil War during cattle drives and roundups Cowboys and Vaceros, Vaceros U again gathering informally to test their riding and roping skills impromptu contest between different ranchers And ranches started to spring up, many historians point to Der Trail, Colorado, hosting one of the earliest competitive cowboy contests in eighteen sixty four Garal. And shut out CJ Vacari I went to school with growing up. I don't know if it's similar, close, I don't know. But he was a cowboy. I do remember that I don't know if you roote or not But but he had it in his blood. Brother praise God, ammen But yeah I would like to learn about the rodeo. I need to get like a rodeo special. someomebody knows the history of it. I needed to search for that. Yeah, there's a lot of Latinos in there, a lot of Mexican guys, a lot of Brazilians Um, A lot of Canadians, a lot of Australians When you see the line upps at these these rodeos. a lot of guys from Utah, Wyoming, Alberta. different places over there. You ever think about how something got its start? Like Mountain Dew, for example. I always thought it just kind of appeared one day, you know Just like a stork brought it from a beverage universe or something And then somebody saw it just sitting in a cooler just glistening Just glistening But no, it's it's actually straight out of Tennessee.

And if I did the thing where you close the so you don't get any outside air conditioning You know, just like the smell myself type of whatever that setting is bro and you just put dude, it was Cut that on, I'd be awake for one month n couldn't close my.

I was turt Penny we freking turn Sh out small boy Diego Pavo over there in Baltimore, man Blessings to him bro Yeah What else is going on, bro Let's take some calls, as always hotline, nine eight five six six four nine five zero three. I got this one right here CO Yeah Dw What's sub big Mic. a Mic Oward U I've been with my girlfriend for about You know, I'm going be eight months now and u I love her. I love her man. and she loves me and But the whole time we've been together, I've been I've just been overtaken by all this jealousy, man of kind of her past and she's told some things that you know, she did before we met that you know,'t don't exactly align with you know, where I'm at or where I've been at, you know, and I've struggled to not hold it against her. you know, I've struggled to forgive and forget and just accept and love unconditionally, you know and I don't know, man. things just keep coming up and keep hearing things and kindind of just hurts and I know I'd probably do it to myself, but I'm just asking for maybe a little bit of your advice, M. what do you think You know, maybe what can I do to out of myself, you know, to stop Stop putting myself in the center of the unise, you know? I just love Dude, that's a great question, man. Wow, what can I do to dis love Bh Man, if every if we if that was our national anthem Man that we would all be in a different place or especially our international anthem as well Um Yeah, I think, you know There's some things like it's easy for me to say, right? Like I I've made some mistakes in this realm, man. I was jealous You know, I kind of created unrealistic expectations for people that they could never live up to. you know And and I would hold like old stuff against girlfriends. Yeah, I've done that. L stuff they can't even like, you know, how people don't can't do time travel. They can't go change something And so if I'm holding something like that against somebody, It's and I know that they can't change it then That's it really says something about me, you know And I need to make a choice do I either want to Can I not can I really not live with it? Or am I just afraid? of like what other people will think. You know, if I date somebody that's had like different like u past ris partners or this or that What are they going to think? I was always like, what would other people think of this U girl I'm dating. what would other people think of her I lost some good opportunities because of that Now instead of what would I think What do I think And maybe she N Bra, maybe What if it's like, hey, I'm going I'm going to be the person. so you don't have to like I wonder does she did she even want to like live in someone like if she was like out and about or or if a girl and a guy was out and about, like maybe they didn't even really want to be living that way And maybe now you're like this thing, you're this person, you're finally this person that's going to be like, I'm going to make sure they don't like I'm going to be there for them no matter what's so. They don't have They they don't ever have to like put themselves out there like that again. They're going to be fulfilled, right Um They're going to know that I'm here for them. You know, I don't know. mayaybe, I don't know. I don't know if that's crazy to say. I can't. I haven't had success doing that But I'm just thinking, man, what if what if we were like What if we were the kind of boyfriends that was like, Oh, I'm not gonna be like that to hold your passing at you. I'm going I'm going to I'm going to make sure that you have somebody that's going to be right there You know I'm going to make sure you don't ever have to live that way again if you don't want to. that you don't have to operate in these certain circles if you don't want to You know I don't know,'s tough, dude. I was, yeah. I wasn't good at him. I would just be like because it gave me something always this little like this little extra card of like, o wow, I can be upset Right It gave me a chance to have one foot out of the relationship That's the truth. That's the truth, Buram But imagine if you could be like, I'm going to be the person this girl doesn't ever have to worry again They don't ever have to worry if they're going to have somebody's going to be there for them. They don't ever have to like give themselves away to an environment they're not sure about. don't you know what I'm saying? L like I'm to be I'm gonna to be This man that they've been needing I don't know, man. I'm not preaching.'m thinking out loud What if the calendar did that to us, right What if the calendar And I don't know who owns the calendar or whatever. probably Bezos or Lutnik or whatever. But what if the calendar Like you'd had a day years ago that wasn't good, right? or you'd had a week years ago that wasn't even that good, right And what if the calendar just suddenly like made you relive it like Life's going a certain way and now the counter is like, Oh I'm throwing in. twenty eleven at you. It's a Wednesday, remember that? Bam And you're like, what the fuck This is so long, I gotta do this. So that's kind of like kind of what I was doing when I was acting like that. I was like, what about this old thing, this old day, this whole relationship? You know, why don't we live that shit again? Why don't we go through that shit again? 'cause I didn't want I really didn't want there to be enough I wanted a reason that this one't going to work, That's what I wanted. But it's not really what I wanted What I really wanted was I wanted it to work. I was afraid. commommit to it I was afraid to commit to it So let me keep bringing these all old things alone Let me keep bringing these old hurdles But one day somebody you gets tired of jumping over those with you, bro, and then you' just standing there with a bunch of old hurdles and shit Like just like a PE coach that's out of work that's been, you know, just using in their car at lunch or whatever. And that's shit. So anyway, I don't know if that helps or Nabra But man, yeah what if we could all be brave enough? you know, to love the person that we that we love Like we know they should be loved, right? I think that's what I mean, but what if we could all be brave enough to do that Praise guy bro, let's get another one man what we got here APO. This is Jared from Indiana What's up, Jared, and congratulations on your new Indiana bear homeward? Love your son U I was just wondering If you've got any advice or a man who never had a father Now he's trying to raise three boys The youngest ones one and I named them after you. I love everything you do I just I don't know. I want to be the probleather that I never have But sometimes A gates are m you probably hear them in the background, but If you got any advice or me, let your know. Oh, yeah that allowd when that must be me That must be me, brother loud when a chatty one back there The one back there selling dime bags or whatever, b Sound like QP b. You know what I'm saying pushing weight, that was that's me Um, where it's it's an awful call to think about this, especially around Father's Day just to think, like You know, I think What I would do, I would write down the stuff maybe that you felt like you didn't get And then You'll kind of have your answers, I think Um For me, I think some of it would have just been direction. It would have been like U Maybe if my father were have put his hand on the back of my neck more, that's like a very u fatherly son or parental type of thing the back of the neck Mm And not even not looking at your children with judgment You know, I was I was looked at with judgment a lot. Mostly judgment, in fact, probably two hundred and fifty percent judgment So that's how I learned that the only way to operate in the world was judgment That was like the currency. You know? It was like, I'm going to judge you That's kind of how I showed affection was through I'm gonna judge you less If that sounds I mean, I don't know if that sounds real to anybody or not. You think that's real Haluston actually really interesting But yeah Why do you think that is Oh, I think it makes perfect sense because if somebody judges if all I know, if I look if only the only look I see in a parent's eyes is judgment Th I' all I'm to do of myself And it's all Madoo probably of others, especially if it's like an inimate If there's like intimacy or just communication So Yeah, that's what I did. And it's a survival skill that can help you a lot because you're judging things, you get really good Judging this judging outot you know what I'm saying? You really good But it'll keep you alone too canan anyway So But blessings to you, bro, happappy Father's Day to you And I'm just thinking out loud, toora, I don't know any of this. I'm not a scientist Um You know, But u But yeah Blessons to you, bro Tello theos said, what's up b? Type shit, BLM. I'll see him in the streets, boy gang Let me see what else we got here it's Mason. I just had a What's up Mason? Thankk you for calling, brother for you You know, I kind of just wanted to see what you thought about it and what you, you know, Cuddle over Wiscansin there, boy You know Or Illinois maybe onward. Do. The other day, I walked into a gas station. And there was a man who clearly had D syndrome He didn't look the oldest. Oh yeah, the ops And he was trying to buy some beer And I kind of read the situation and knew what was going on But the clerk actually tell he didn't know what to do. And he you know, he kind of looked at it and he actually turned to me S, what do you think of this? And I don't know if I should feel bad clearly underage man with D syndrome of alcohol I'm just wondering if I did the right thing, what you do in that situation Thanks for you, P. Gangang. Yeah. of course of course, dude. If a guy has down syyndrome, give him a fucking drink Give him a break, man. cut his work hours a little bit. Like yeah, dude, I remember when we were growing up if a guy down center, youd give him a beer, you'd bring him. you'd even get some beer from inside if your dad wouldn't give you a whole can, you'd come and just give him and just let them just drink it out ofa your hands, brother. Like You got to support people You know, people with Down syyndrome love to drink beer because I think it has sugar in the it's a lot of it's sugar based Why to down and Oh, it just shows a picture of Ireland. So countounty cork specifically, but dude, it's like think. I don't I believe look, if somebody has D syndrome or if they might have it or whatever I think you gott to let him drink, bro. That's the type of place I'm from You know, I almost had it. I was on the ropes. And gototta let people cook if they have it And yeah, dude, when I was growing up, we would get a we had a guy who had I don't know what he had. He had something Something pretty strong and we'd send him. wed give him fifty sixty dollars go in there, bro. One time, bro, his kid Damen, dude And bro, one time we give him the money to go in there And he fucking went out the back dude, he went out the back and ran up there to a senior center and broke down a bunch of wall art in the windows in there. So You know what I'm saying? we never got our money back, though. But the shit I'm talking about is like, you don't know what's popping, bro You don't know what's popping. so I don't think we should hold somebody back from having a good time I do think the underage thing But If somebody has down syndrome, I say let them cook You know what I'm saying I say letem cook, bro But yeah, I mean, should you feel bad about it? I don't know I mean, as long as y'all are't making fun of the guy or doing something like that, as long as y'all are' you know, u, Plus people want to feel included, buying beer is like kind of like a ritual when you're underage. I'm not saying, you know, I'm not sitting here condon it, Don't do it. I gotta say that for a legal reason. peopleople do it You know, even down center people do it apparently. So Whatever, Bro. You know, he probably he might not even have down syndrome. He might just live too close to a dad of synda, bro. know what I'm saying, he might be all hopped up on dad and shit You know, little Ricky' on their data So Let's take another call here. spepeaking of data centers actually Hi, my name is Amy Hopkins What I would love is the seel v could talk about or even mention The fact that a Georgia company is building an AI data center right next to the Nashville Zoo and right next to an elementary school It's like SmackDab in the middle of these two innocent Beautiful creatures on God's planet D evil ghouls are coming in and destroying the air, the water, the environment you know, the earth, everything that we have I mean, these animals are already in a zoo Okay. And now we're to come in and do this to it. So it's like I'm just trying to do whatever I can to bring attention to this. Amen. than, thank you for calling. I agree, bro. Now the thing is they got data everywhere I'll say this, dude, on behalf of everybody That's human. and has a heart K eye bro I. I don't have any friends. that are ever like, hey, AI, what how's they you know I'm saying? Nobody's doing that shit. We're already fine. We can already order our food fast enough. We can already watch a movie if we want on our phone. We don't need anything else I don't know who else needs more shit I don't want any data, bother. They got too much data Now what happens? the kid, you know, the kids playing at school or whatever and he falls in a and they got a puddle of dad outside of the data center or whatever. And he's got a bunch of data and shit on his shirt or whatever you can', you know, He's got a bunch of like loveve Island episodes that won't come out You know, stained up for sure, especially the new season bit much. but it's like You know, and what how does that even work? They got a data leak at the factory. now he's your kid, you know, L Ricky's got a bunch of data stuck in his leg or something, You know, he's got a bunch of fucking maps of like from the thirteen hundreds or whatever O he's got a bunch of Epstein files of stuck in his spinal column or something because of a you know, the data, He's just got emails stuck in his skin or whatever. you know, it's just like We don't want any data, bro. We don't want any. noobbody wants a data center, Dude, noobbody wants it And the people that want them to me, bro, they seem kind of evil It's like, what's gonna happen You know, you you fall down and you get a bunch, you know A bunch of loose data flies out of the factory or something now and your kids got you know He's got five episodes of all Dutt and ranch or whatever stuck in his neck or something It's gotten crazy We don't want it. Nobody wants the shit And so here's what I think. I really believe this. I think I really believe it. I don't know, but I believed it yesterday. I believe that some people know how to live forever they've cracked the cod And so suddenly They have to put the rest of us They have to lock us down They have to. Because if everybody finds out about it then everybody's going to be able to do it, right? There's got to be some people have to take like have to separate themselves. and I think this is how they're doing it. They're creating these data centers. It's all just going to, it's all, I think going to be I believe this is my Pothy u theory 're going it's all gonna to be locked in with these flock cameras. There's some company like this Palanter, onene of these companies going be owning all of this information. They're going to put it all in It's all going to be we're all going to be locked now Everybody you're not going to be able to live or do anything that feels human There's going to become this kind of score, this sort of like, social and even the emotional sort of credit score And then AI is going to become it w it won't ever really But it's going try to become like our new Godd Right? Because I think people go to God for their feelings for their for help for hope, right? They they lay their They' u Theyir faults at the feet of Jesus for hope, right And they it's all getting. you're going to have to like Kase somehow, you're gonna have to get do well enough. for a data center to grant you whatever you then need, right Do that sound crazy, Austin? That's why they need because what does anybody thought what data do they? We already have like we're sharing pictures, we're sharing phone, we al have video in the cloud. like we all have this stuff. that you know, there's millions of episodes of different movies and all it is in the clan What do they need? It's a they're asking for a lot of suddenly they need It's a lot of space to just need data everywhere So yeah, it's unbelievable, Bro body I could talk more about it. I would love to know more people's thoughts about it. But I don't give a fuck about it. I don't see what it's going to do for us. I don't understand to be human. I think we've let a lot of tarantulas that aren't humans start to take over society And Oh And we're seeing the repercussions of that. And some of us we didn't let it happen. But I believe that, yeah, the devil is alive, bro. The devil is alive, and the devil is al liive,ro anyway, I'm not trying to preachhing it. I think somebody just makes me mad and it's scary it by a zoo It's like they're rubbing in our face, like you know what I'm saying? Because a lot of that is is showing control putting it by a school or whatever Some kids, you know, he's only he's like, He's on the swing set and he just hits his head like there's some dada going through the air or whatever And he hits his head on some dada or whatever Now he's got a concussion And, you know He's just he's just stuck singing Spotify lyrics, you know, just a bunch of data. He's just sitting there, you know, reciting just Larry Fleet and the cast ofos and Luke Bryan and Morgan Wallen deep cuts. It's like, it's just it's, you know I don't know, bro I don't know what's going to happen U And some girl today, she said and when do we stand up? When do we Good question Oh no, there's there must be something attractive in us just watching. O deot like we're w like, I don't know I don't if it makes any sense Um Oh, I do want to get the president of Mexico on here. Miss Claudyia Seinbaum. I will come to Mexico City. I want to come down there Um, So I would love. ye, I would love to get the President of Mexico on. Um, just to learn. I want to learn like about God the Mexican American relationship from the from a Mexican point of view from a leader there point of view notot, you know, I just want to learn more. I think it would be exciting and u So this is my beacon for that You know, I'm trying to speak what I would like. And u Yeah, I would love to know like how how do our laws, like the laws that we make here, how does that affect things that happen in Mexico? What are like the truths about cartel stuff in Mexico? I would love to know about Like what are some of like the big long term goals of Mexico? Just things like that. It's interesting because I't I don't ever learn about it. I probably could But it would be nice to learn in person. Um so that is somethingomet I would like to I'd like to have that opportunity if you would grant it to me Amen Um What else? Oh yeah, eight, bro. Let's talk about Atlanta. Atlanta's got the most flock cameras, bro. Um Yeah, the speaking of spepeaking of also just going back real quick to the u Data center. the company behind The Nashville Zoo Data Center The one that's near there allegedly is DC blocks So let me look at them. who? bes DC blocks primarily owned by Post Road Group and Bane Capital Credit owned by alternative investment Jonathan Levine John Wright Um Firmwide strategic direction is steered by managing partners, David Gross And chairman such as Steve Pagalua. And Josh Beckenstein, Beckenstein Um This is all AI overview. This is from Google AI Atlanta based DC Blocks propose building a twenty four acre two building data center campus at six hundred forty eight Grasmeere Park. That's unbelievable, dude I go drive over there all the time I go to a meeting not far from there Unbelieve the Nashille Council The National Metropolitan Council passed an initial temporary morium that seeks to rest restrict larger scale data centers from being built within a half mile of homes Um Bro, the thing is that most of the most of the flock cameras now I saw one the other day. Just saw one the other day over there I aboutought a donnut shop, bro. I was giving me a couple donns, Bro I was a little depressed at night I pulled up over there And they had some kids over there middling around, but I waited in my car about seven, eleven minutes, Broke. waited til the mom came and picked them up Be how does you want to be embarrassed for And then I walked in there Got me a couple donns bra And and on the way out I saw a flock camer.
