The Joe Budden Podcast Episode 586 | The Side Main feat. Akademiks

[@Nifty.Visuals]

Ak and joes chemistry is unmatched. Wish everyday struggle was still on

[@DJJayWhit]

They really love each other

Same wavelength. Ak is formal education intelligent, Joe is dropout, informal intelligent. It works.

Joe was the reason people watched it

Damn joe budden podcast lowkey fell off ? Not even a million views in a week

[@DJLITRAVE]

it flows too good...they better get a 50 million dollar deal some where

[@mistamycall]

@HellSeventeen Podcasts are generally slowly dwindling. The game is saturated and people are talking about the same stuff.

[@FreePlayMode]

I feel that Joe is the only person in the podcast space that truly respects Ak, because he saw something that he didn't understand, and was made into a believer. Not only that, he witnessed the come up.

[@daniellegibson5612]

Agreed! No matter how folks feel about AK, he has come a very long way since everyday struggle.

[@leemitchell5876]

Not only witnessed it, but saw first hand what decisions produced certain results / consequences. Like having a Pod-son 😂

[@yaboyj3]

That Charlemagne/Adam analogy Joe gave was top tier! 🤣🤣🤣

[@CreativeTakeover-f4i]

Facts!

[@fatmanjam]

We need Ak on every episode while this Meg and Tory case is going on at least. Another classic in the books!

[@Pikachuvs50Cent]

Joe and AK was my teenage and younger 20 years to now. Insane how they shaped modern hip hop media

[@mistamycall]

This ain't media, its gossip.

[@lesliebuabasah8623]

Lowkey Joe and AK should start a podcast. Missed that everyday struggle energy

[@TrvisXXIII]

I listened to this on weds and I gotta say this is one of the best episodes Joe has had since Rory and Mal, hands down.

[@alixmilfort3647]

Naaaw you ain’t been listening then

[@airysm]

Nah the kevin samuels ep was

[@TrvisXXIII]

@@alixmilfort3647 I have lol it’s been a lot of the same, ish holds it down, but the synergy was unmatched this episode

[@jadesalman9603]

Totally agree and I haven’t even watched it all yet

[@Olmikelaaawry]

Joe and Akademiks def could’ve had a successful show or podcast. There’s obvious chemistry

[@MICHAEL-uz6zt]

Everyday Struggle?

[@Xeno1798]

But if it could have ended like Joe and Mal then i'm glad not.

[@talltayls21]

They did have a successful show though…?🤔 And, had a successful show before a single Hip-Hop podcast ever existed if I’m not mistaken. MAYBE Drink Champs..? But Im pretty sure Joe & Ak opened the door for hip-hop based podcasts

[@disispeter]

Yea they star players that need there own show/team

[@willsmith4575]

Now that ak ain’t scared to stand up for himself it works better than before. Back when they were on the Same show it was rlly just joe bullying ak and shitting on his opinions.

[@therealestrarebreed]

AK n Joe gotta combine forces at least bi-weekly on a 2 hr pod. And Ish is really killing ish💯

[@ProfilePranks]

In the beginning of the podcast when the topic came up about getting older, I literally felt like god was talking to me. I have been struggling with grief and getting older, and how precious time really is. I have had these obsessive thoughts about dying and I have legitimate panic attacks over these thoughts. I think it’s a combination of losing loved ones, and going through the grieving process. As well as, becoming of an age that I believe is mind and life altering(my mid thirties.) it gave me a little comfort knowing that there are other people who are going through a similar experience as I am. Even if it was just for a moment, it gave me a little relief knowing that I’m not alone.

[@andremccalla279]

Going through the same thing..keep your head up fam!

[@CaliCrook83]

Same. Head up and ten toes down, you got this 💪🏽🙌🏽🤲🏽

[@ribs1106]

Your not alone .. peace & blessings

[@MB-mz8ts]

I went through the same last year. You have to find solace with it. What helped me is thinking about what could be after. Also reading stories from people in their 100s. Very possible you could live for another 50 yrs or so. Stop thinking you’ll drop dead tomorrow and plan for living until you can’t anymore. I’m intentional when I speak. I will live until 100. Once I pass I look forward to a whole new life, as a whole new person who won’t even remember being here. It’s kind of exciting that way.

[@YT561BOI]

Literally. Death has been on my mind heavy this month and I recently had an attack after dwelling on the thought of death and what it means.

[@RAWDramaReport]

They need to do another show the chemistry is still there!

[@DJLITRAVE]

just do everyday struggle type show on a different streaming platform

[@lainalove6149]

I definitely think the energy that AK brings to the room, especially with Joe, is what's missing on the pod. And so many of us love these types of free flowing pods.

[@sonyap8253]

I agree. He brings some uptempo vibes

[@willbongz1065]

So corny energy ? lol

[@Illnamethislater]

Nah I can do Ak every now and then

Ak and Joe together are TV gold. Too many funny moments but 1:12:45 - 1:15:45 Joe’s opinion on Ben Simmons followed straight afterwards with his impersonation of Da Baby taking the stand was hilarious 🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@AfroAmercanXpress]

Joe's question about the importance of hospitals is crucial! Most people really do not even put that into consideration when they relocate. As a healthcare professional, y'all should keep that in mind. Love the pod, keep doing your thing fellas!

[@EarlYorkII]

This was a great pod! I listened to the entire pod on Apple yesterday (you get to hear how dope of a DJ Joe is) and came back here to watch it today. Y’all put names on nggas bruh that’s the next level y’all had some real conversations give us more.

[@choppingitupwithkc75]

I just checked the time stamp to see how much time I got left it says 7 mins , I felt like I’ve been watching from 2 seconds with Joe and ak time stops it’s just pure entertainment . Joe and ak content is unmatched Joe was speaking on he only pocket watch people in position where he wants to be . In my humble opinion reuniting with Ak is a legitimate was to multiply that income . Ak and Joe bond is genuine ain’t nothing like that lil bro - big bro tough love . If ak and Joe want they can’t put an end to all these other platforms by simply uniting . That’s just my opinion though great content !

[@TheAnswerKeyTV]

Joe's take on today's fits was hilarious! Ish said he was jumping like a baddie to get in those jeans... got my day off on the right foot.🤣 Thank you guys!🤗 P.S. I like the daily attendance; keep it up.👍

[@TooMuchBodayInnaPants]

We need the Meg/Tory topic to sit on ice until all evidence is submitted. It’s just annoying hearing passion behind topics that have been disproved the next day in court. It’s too soon to go either way honestly

[@youngblack253]

[@Jeyapollo]

Honestly if Tory is innocent Meg won’t face any backlash for lying. Her fanbase is pretty much Shaderoom followers. I noticed they didn’t post Meg testimony and how it contradicted the prosecutors statements. However they posted Kelsey’s in full detail and those women think she got paid off by Tory

[@koketsok7391]

She will always have followers but her music career will be over even with the machine behind her she only sells 30K first week

[@Jeyapollo]

@@koketsok7391her machine can easily spin her as a influencer and probably make more money doing that then music. She won’t be blackballed like Tory was

None of the blogs is saying Meg was a liar..🤦🏽‍♂️

[@sonyap8253]

@XXV Pollo there are a lot of women like me who knew she was lying from jump. You can't say "protect black women" and "breyonna taylor" "George floyd" and in the next breath lie on a black man in the United States legal system. But you know how birds do...flock together 🤦‍♀️

[@nicolehernandez11]

Joe is right that when you date someone that you know you had no business dating. It gets you in trouble.

[@gunnyo50]

It's one of the dopest things he ever said on the podcast. Joe was right about a man staying home or saying no in the nightclub to a girl that's most likely never batter an eyelid to a guy she definitely not into normally. It's called protection, these girls as well out here are also incredibly predatory.

[@KaeeYoo]

Nonetheless always a legendary episode when you get AK in with the crew and no one holds back. Everything holds others accountable. And it’s just pure comedy and entertainment good shit!! Bring AK back more. Y’all chemistry is dope. Maybe that’s why he’s so cute to you 😂😂😂
