Nobody told katt to wear a perm that was straighter than brazillian women hair but he is the guy to say who has giving up their manhood. Katt said himself he all over netflix well last time i checked netflix aint no black owned company netflix owned by the same type of mf as epstein as a matter of fact netflix has more men kissing men than any other platform out.

[@donp380]

The Part of the Show about Mel meandering around topics, intentionally misunderstanding black men & ducking accountability kept it 💯 and the fact that Mel got triggered shows how delusional she really is & her lack of self-awareness. In the Katt topic the guys were explaining how Hollywood emasculates black men & she immediately brings up white actors & black women, completely undermining the main issue. Then the very next topic discussing Epstein Island she caped for Beyoncé & others saying they weren't directly involved, but had the opposite energy for Cam & Mase? Smh funny thing is they all wanted to agree with the part of the show chick (especially Ish) but they had to cape for their "sister" 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@ApoetsPoet]

It's gender wars on the pod. I don't need Mel to fall in line with my point of view if I'm Joe. They need to get past trying to trap her into saying certain things and being unhappy if she has her own point of view. It's cringy to almost see him force his opinion or views onto her. Do we really want all of them to think exactly alike? I, we, they may not agree with her approach, but ok you're smarter than most and that's where your mind took you, disagree, but no need to try to coax someone into what you wanna hear imo

[@CeeP211]

​@@ApoetsPoetI was just about the same thing. Not that I always agree with her, but I don't listen to this pod for everyone to have the same view.

[@jeromejenkins151]

The sooner you accept the fact that Mel sees herself as a wyte woman the easier it'll be for you to digest what she says.

[@PeriseanBaltimore]

@@ApoetsPoet I don't know if it's coaxing when you have a person in mel that is able to wax poetic when she wants but when it's something that involves where a woman could be at fault then the meandering begins, there isn't the same level of nuance when it comes to men and that's what joe and crew highlights at time

[@kayavi-fz6ye]

I’ve noticed that hot topics (like black men in dresses) they tend to throw it in Mel’s lap. What I like about Mel is her opinion is different and it pushes the conversation. They do it to Ish too. I think that’s needed on a Pod, pods are boring when everyone agrees on the same things. Parks, Flip and Ice get to sit there and agree with the strongest opinion.

3:08:45 Mel’s immediate reaction to a female asking the MEN (not her) a completely fair question about her, with mad respect and deference to her place on the pod, is EXACTLY why the question was asked and people don’t like her and think she has MILES to grow in maturity. As a fellow female day-one listener, the viewer took the words right out of my mouth. To be almost 50 years old, pride yourself on being well read and worldly, yet you cannot sit down and let other people ask a question about some of the things that bother everyone about you on a podcast that you admitted during your interview with Angie that you were not prepared to join proves everyone’s point. I learned a lot about Mel from that interview and shot her a LOT of bail, but people who don’t want to be helped can’t be helped. I don’t think anyone watches this pod FOR Mel. I certainly don’t like dogpiling, but she is one of those people who can’t admit they’re wrong or just sit down and BE QUIET

I don't think that Mel has the historical chops for the black man dress conversation. Lets not forget that she isn't American, she's canadian. While she is a black woman working in hollywood, I doubt that as an outsider-a canadian-she has the american historical context necessary to correctly identify when something is systemic or not. In this case, the black male in a dress being a systemic entertainment issue not just a choice that individual actors/comedians make. While some actors make the conscious decision to put on the dress, the greater majority understands it as "put on the dress, or be underpaid/under recognized". The consistent issue of figures being exiled/ outcast because they refuse to cater to a certain audience is not entirely exclusive to a single gender, however in this case, it absolutely is an issue faced by Black men and requires a basic understanding of black american hollywood history to understand.

[@pelotontherapyy]

If you’re wondering why this interview has gone insanely viral, ranking among the top 3 podcast interviews ever, let me break it down. Think of it as akin to the Avengers Infinity Saga. Its success mirrors the culmination of all the build-ups from previous movies, starting from the Iron Man series through Avengers: Infinity War. Thing is, we (including Shannon) had no clue these vids were building up such hype. Shannon even tried to get Katt on the show over a year ago (thankfully, it didn’t happen then). Everyone else was laying the groundwork with their interviews, setting the stage. Then, boom! Katt comes in, almost like Thanos snapping fingers, tying it all together. Plus, Katt’s got that charm, speaks his mind, sticks to his agenda, and he’s hilarious. That’s why this thing blew up!

She was simply saying there are white men in the industry who also have to put on the dress to get ahead, just because they are white doesn’t mean the powerful men at the studios don’t also want to emasculate them, they just aren’t going to complain like black men.

[@omegasupremetv]

Mel is slow I cant stand her anymore...She's always capping for the powers to be

[@Mrs.SimonifYouNasty]

She didn't want to take a side publicly.

[@Classikh]

The dress bs isn’t unique to black people tho. Plenty of white actors did the same, it’s viewed at as a funny trope, a bit low effort for me but yeah.

[@Message1inthesame]

BINGO

[@troybellowtheprofit]

Melissa Ford I would like you to research and do your homework on the situation. A little more, the dress can really be connected. As far back as to slavery, it's almost what they did to demasculate the strong ones in front of the village. Certain practices have just continued through the years. That doesn't make them right and of course, the good old boys loves the minstrel show. So who cares if they approve of it? So long story the ones that had a wear dress even though they wore it. Believe me when I tell you. Most of them had to be coworked into the situation. Most of them didn't freely wear the dress. It was a pivocal point.

[@MajorFlava516]

I’m seeing more and more stories where,young comedians getting mysterious envelopes with money in it after their sets & saying Katt was in the audience & liked your work.

[@davidrose647]

Mel, been to those Billionaire parties 💰 💰 💵!

[@nenee240]

Wait lmao when they said to Mel- you been in rooms we haven’t, it all made sense.

[@alexandriaobong6753]

Mel not understanding the dress situation is crazy 😭

[@Snoopybest13]

Great way to start the year ! Shoutout to the JBP !

[@NYCisHome]

There’s a video of Melyssa ford where she was at some red carpet event and she specifically spoke on how you have to do shady things to get ahead in this industry and I think she was speaking on the women but if the shoe fits, and in Hollywood it CAN always fit, no pun intended

[@EricMrRareAir]

1:03:54 Mel BEATING AROUND THE BUSH SO SHE DOESN’T BURN ANY BRIDGES 😂

[@Thisthat1234]

Bunch of hypocrites! Mel once insinuated there could possibly be minors during that Cam and Mase story. Now she takes the opposite side and says everyone on the list could possibly not be partaking and the others just jumped on her.

[@jay8142]

this ep was fire 😭 perfect way to start the year ❗️

[@papzonline5502]

As a man who waits for the wrap ups yearly im with Joe being on tour defo took his focus of the wrap up last year

[@clarkkent52]

for 2024 Joe need a masterclass presentation on the art of conversation and how being an emcee has defined helped shaped that on podcast etc..somewhere like a TED...or Elite College type place ..add another gem to his belt

[@rparris27]

Mel really this clueless about the male black comedians being incentives to wear a dresses

[@JodimyJodi]

Joe snapped why we can’t believe black men but we suppose to believe black women he’s spot on

[@itsuknoro]

I don’t like how Joe was doing Mel during that black man in a dress argument.. she was making great points and he was just stepping on all of them

[@joeesparks7]

Not for nothing, Mel had a point bout the Wayans bros and white chicks🤷🏾

[@drewstar8611]

‘Get naked and get to the chalk board’ is diabolical!!!! 😂😂😂

[@rashadpowell8421]

Chuckie cheese pizza pizza good as hell lol the frozen joints even good lmaoooo

[@An_busy]

Not flip rushing Mel to answer questions and he barely disclose anything 😂. Happy 2024

[@Mangaseriess]

1:0:04:01, Mel-“if that’s the way that they feel, then that’s the way that they feel”. She truly does not care about black men. Eyes finally opened

[@reelmn3998]

I haven't listened to JBP in a minute, so glad I chose this episode to return. I was dying laughing the whole pod! shining, shining, shining,shining yeahh... alll of this money

[@unlimitedbag]

1:41:20 Flip insinuating Mel has been to a secret room activated by a book on a bookshelf is fucking hilarious 😂😂

[@rachelleb7786]

I love Flip even more after this episode 🤣 had me rolling lol

[@Upstartbro]

😂😂😂 when Diddy was in the headlines joe was ......

[@ddelsur2694]

Yeah...and?

[@carlosangelmorales1323]

I try to watch the pod whenever a new episode drops but when I miss a couple I just binge watch them 😂😂

[@MB-fy8mz]

Joe Spittin everytime he talk is Nasty work...

[@malakai4896]

Hate the way Joe just cuts people off when it doesn’t add to his point. Mel made a good point about it being white people humour, I know many white people that would find dressing up like a woman funny & the only black film that they’ve seen is ‘White Chicks’ I do think that it could be true about it emasculating Black men but I think you’ll find that us as black people are quite homophobic hence why they all still say “pause” well into their 40s, so anything that hints at homosexuality like wearing a dress is just something black people don’t do

[@factzovafiction9240]

Cross dressing is a homosexual act

[@mr.lamaryaz3463]

Yeah Joe annoyed me with that this episode.. Mel was cooking Joe.. He cut her off.

[@Message1inthesame]

Didn’t make any good points

[@crosbywill]

I would love for Joe to explain what he feels Mel brings to the podcast, if he hasn’t already, outside of her just being a beautiful face with a name. It feels like she’s always so stuck on what it is to be a “woman” that it gets in the way of her providing any valuable perspective on a lot of the topics.

[@ashleighr5395]

I'm cool with it being a dude pod. If anything she needs the pod more than we need her on it cuz she seems very clueless and tone deaf on a lot of topics (about men and not) and I don't think she's always jus podding so they school her and it seems very necessary

[@crosbywill]

@@ashleighr5395 I couldn’t agree with you more. I definitely think a woman’s perspective is necessary. She just isn’t the right fit. I would’ve thought, given her experiences, that she would be able to provide more insight and perspective. But you hit the nail on the head when you said “tone deaf.”

[@ashleighr5395]

Ya she's not no sheltered Amish girl so I be so confused listening sometimes. And I'm not even at the Part of the show yet, which judging by these comments is another shining Mel moment lol

[@crosbywill]

@@ashleighr5395 Yeah….she definitely has another signature moment. lol And it was a simple question. How do you feel about Hollywood emasculating prominent black actors by making them wear dresses or play feminine roles? Simple. Her answer is 🥴🥴🥴🥴. lol

[@MissRory662]

Nobody who came forward has said katt was lying tho. Everybody wanna deflect

[@CoreyTillman-xd9dh]

Which person was supposed to say that? Most seemed to just tell their side. Ricky’s version 100% was not deserved. He was originally money mike also confirmed by ice cube.

[@Nunofyabizzzzz]

@@CoreyTillman-xd9dh no he was not and no it was not. He auditioned that is all. This is the problem a lot of people have difficulty comprehending even the most simple things and spread misinformation as a result. Katt told the truth.

[@Abdullah-vg1uc]

someone did say he lied and proved it

[@ramseyebryant]

@@Nunofyabizzzzzyea I can’t believe he just said that wtf … did u not hear what ice cube said

[@Classikh]

Smac from BOF said Katt was a smoker. Truth in the details 🍊 And that boy had big plates ❄️

[@gerardourrutia3704]

I never agree with Melissa about the dress situation . But she is right she got a point

[@jdizzle1779]

Mels point on white humour being different to black humour woth regards to the dress was under rated
