Mal: “You owe your friends respect.” Joe: “I don’t believe that.” That should basically tell you everything you need to know lmao

[@ThisisStephennn]

Its facts tho. U don't owe anybody anything. I don't respect someone that demands respect or anything from me just cuz we cool

[@yup1992]

@@ThisisStephennn okay Joe

[@DrGameNwatch]

@@ThisisStephennn This is a terrible take. Mal and joe are long term friends, they owe eachother respect. What long term friends do you have that you don't respect? None. Otherwise you wouldn't be friends.

[@TitoBunkN]

@@DrGameNwatch you don't owe anybody anything, you people with this enticement shit are crazy, I choose to respect you if I don't you have the choice to be my friend or not. We all have choices and are not obligated to do anything . Secondly as long term friend mal should've showed up for joe on the pod that's why Joe said he never though mal would've left him hanging like that🤦🏽‍♂️

[@itsfqndave]

@@DrGameNwatch you still owe them nothing. Get out of your feelings. You give them respect because they are your friends. But, first and foremost you give them respect because they're a human. But you owe your friend nothing. Giving respect to your friend or to anyone is part of being courteous and being a good person. How much respect you give varies on the history, interactions and experiences you've had with the person.

[@carsonhayward5903]

My synopsis: Mal - Hard realization that business and friends don’t mix. Roary - Understands business but didn’t think it would come to this because of friendship. Joe - Business is business nothing personal. “So What!?”

[@bbkingme8831]

No. Its thiss. Mal. I was round u when u was broke living with me for years. I joined because u asked me to. And made nd helped the podcast grow. Rory. Nothing to say. Just look at how joe disrespects rory and says shut up rory all the time. And say i wont let a person like u talk to me like that. But when rory responds the same, joe says rorys trippn theyre supposed to be friends. Bjt joe only disrespects rory and tslks down to him. Joe. I want money. I want the status. I wanna be big time. I love this life and i will cut off my friends to keep the money for the moment going. Moral of story. Joe should kno money and things dont last forever. He takes his rap career failure and overshoots everything. I see a fake dude in joe. That want attention and is delusional.

False. Rory and Mal are actually the two insensitive ones and obv they were plotting for a min. it’s easy to lead someone to act a certain way and then “call” them out for the action that you created.

@Joseph Brandon you’re right. He’s literally ALWAYS been this way. Joe Budden pretty much created the love and hiphop culture with all his internet drama. He is literally one of the first to be a celeb and have his drama continuously aired out on social media. We know too much about Joe to ever think one day he’s going to wake up a mentally and emotionally stable man.

@Glen Gaines Joe's been a narcissist since forever though. Glad they went their separate ways and are prospering. Hate the pod broke up still tho. I lean more to Mal and Rory than I do Joe. I knew of Joe first but I also felt I couldn't keep just giving him a pass, so to say 🤷🏿‍♂️ Almost like enabling a alcoholic. I just couldn't keep doing it.

That’s Joe tho. He’s emotional, unstable and arrogant. He’s a joke. Idek why people care to listen to any opinion he has. Dude can’t accept he chose the wrong lane, was a failure compared to his peers (because of his personality) and he’ll always self-destruct.
