I wasn’t expecting that drop

[@nettycharice6254]

@@therealchiefa1 That's a nasty drop for a woman soon 2 be 50. Like she hasn't grown over 30 years in the game. In my opinion that drop was shady 😂

[@ironlung_era]

All heroes don't need a cape Yu'hurR 😅

[@joserodriguez1816]

this drop is crazy work 😭🤣

[@brumfeldo]

As a man living in LA, I can tell you that a lot of people have only teaspoons of sympathy for the people who live in that area. There is such an open hostility towards the obscenely wealthy that sympathy can only go so far even in a case like this.

😂😂😂 you see it

[@cidfranklin6368]

Insane 🤦🏾

[@MJofBlockrytes]

Ice starts with a perfectly timed “Ayoo”😂😂😂😂 this is gonna be a good pod🤣🤣

[@thebreakroompodcast4]

Great way to start my Sunday! Much love fellas and mel.

[@asantewa3]

It's clear from the Jackal argument that Ish has no idea what MI6 is. If he thinks that any means necessary is "too far" he's sorely mistaken. ETA: I think this is the discussion the writers wanted to evoke. What is morality and what is the measure of it.

[@bcuz30]

Ish is stupid. I can't stand when he thinks he's cooking. He doesn't even know what mic check means as a Podcaster.

[@isaiahsavoie3332]

this might be just me but i love your guys’ media breakdowns way more than random drama. i never even watched the jackal but that segment was really engaging

[@Yusuf2.Isl.444]

The looting was not as big as they made it. It was a black family helping a family member, and you guessed it they were seen as looters. Don't believe everything on social media and the news right now. Just pray for the victims 🙏🏿

[@samwilliams9874]

I was hoping Ish would tell the people how homes get water. (Pumping stations that run on electricity) No electricity no water pump, low pressure.

[@Kreid5]

That was literally one incident, yes the looting is bad right now. Illegals are driving around several cars deep entering right after evacuations are handed out. My 2 cousins work private security and was hired in Brentwood after a couple Encino neighborhoods got hit during evacuations...Grocery stores running out of water, gas stations running out of gas shits insane

[@Yusuf2.Isl.444]

@Kreid5 you are not getting into the area. Stores near the fire are running out of supplies. But it's not in the other areas.

[@Yusuf2.Isl.444]

@Kreid5 and if you know anything about the Nation Brothers, secure many celebrities. Don't believe everything on the news, and if it's happening it's not at the magnitude of how they are reporting on it

[@Kreid5]

@Yusuf2.Isl.444 lol I don't watch Mainstream News it's all lies. I have family and friends with boots on the ground in LA. You're referencing one instance that was on social Media, I saw it. That one fake post doesn't disregard tons of other instances where people I know have seen it with their own eyes. You sound upset because that one post blamed black people as looters, that was one post bruh. My family is here in SoCal I don't need to watch the news to know what's going on. I am a truther/critical thinker, I don't watch mainstream media. You should stop watching it as well it's all lies...

[@gunnyo50]

That Mel drop in the intro sounded crazy, wtf is that 😂. Joe is a mad man at times.

[@sanyatesGRIA]

Nah this shtt is constant 😂😂😂

Yes to the nostalgic phone talk! My abuse of 3 way calling lead to punishment and the phone being locked up in my dads room😂 I just used the hallway phone jack instead 😂😂

[@robwiththamob]

to not understanding the magnitude of manners is incredible its literally how we interact with each other like a code on conduct to not understand that its like a mental disease

[@sthope3]

I have been waiting for another episode since forever. What's up Joe! I need like 7 episodes a week!

[@kamys6133]

Crazy nobody's talking about Cali having the largest already homeless population. Luckily, most of these celebrities can take up the hotels and probably rebuild/relocate. I wonder how the already homeless people are looking at this smh!!!

[@hellokittyshitt]

Its waay more regular people than celebrities. Yall gotta stop listening to the internet….

[@MannyTwice]

They also aren't talking about how 1 couple owns 60 percent of L.A.s water supply.....but that's another story

[@barbaracooper3918]

First, it wasn't only wealthy that lost home in fires. Those who don't live here don't know. There is so much misinformation going around. Second, what does the homeless population have to do with the fires?????

[@aron.michael]

No one was looting that video was clarified! Those people were helping their neighbors and themselves take things out before the fires made it there! Some people unfortunately didn’t have insurance and some people will not receive the same assistance the rich and powerful have been receiving since they lost their homes

[@aron.michael]

@ not true some people don’t have insurance , some people insurance cap at 3million , if you felt the need to get a group of people together and move your belongings out I’m sure you simply can’t afford to lose the stuff you have

[@MrKingRoyalty]

When they cut off flip at 21:17 I was dyin lmaoo flip too funny dawg

[@Tshala292]

I was genuinely confused. Were they purposely cutting him off as a joke knowing how sensitive he is?

[@mbembaleba]

Just watched the Jackal. Absolutely terrific!

[@papiiworks4256]

"This guy is nuts B!" 😂 Take a shot whenever you hear it. Sometimes it's very quiet.... But its a nice cup of whiskey.

14:42 Mel’s ability to dance around answering questions continuously, standing on absolutely nothing and never giving clear answers is exactly why many JBP fans don’t fw her.

[@Silver_Joystix]

Blame the fellas for not pressing her. She’s not that good of a dancer.

[@laurenjackson2810]

She answers what she wants to & doesn’t answer what she wants to. Same as Ish & Ice. Y’all just don’t like her

I’m sorry for your losses and hope your doing well currently stay strong 💪🏽

[@obedofficial.]

And to that…let’s see how they handle this situation in comparison to how they mishandled the victims and the city of Katrina. It’s sad.

[@Neilz28]

Yup whatever my mom didn’t grab its gone i have very few baby pics

[@kristain52]

@@obedofficial. it really don’t matter how it happened because like 9/11, Katrina, The crash on 08, Covid, what happened in the Carolina’s, what keeps happening to Florida and Puerto Rico, and now this. These things change life on our timeline forever. With only theories and quiet truths being known. SAD AS FUCK THE PLACE WE LIVE & How much bullshit we really encounter day to day.

If you can find shelter for the recent wave of unfortunate immigrants, im sure we can provide the necessary services for displaced Californians!

[@clarkkent52]

Say what you want about Mel..1 thing she does well is show her appreciation to those who helped her come up..she unashamedly gives Joe his due when its due..puts ego aside to do so..something the rest of the group can learn from…appreciation really does open up blessings..the more appreciative you are of a person gifts ..efforts..talent..advice…that same energy will fall back to you..probably go over a lot of people heads…

[@denaira4479]

I remember free after nine I also remember when they added the area code too the phone number 👏🏾😂

1.55.10 Flip said to ICE... You stand in your CIVILIANISM 😅😅😅

[@chellebelles1536]

a quick fact check, the mayor Karen put 50mil to the fire dept she did not take away. The water resources in CALI are owned by 3 mega rich families. So, there is levels to this, major levels. I am sending prayers to families affected. rich or not, its their home and I pray they recover what they can and build a new. Keep podding

[@Eminence24Kt]

14:09 that’s a pretty accurate Quote. I’m a man & I’ve seen literally so much cases on the national news, of men who turned their wife’s tv off for whatever reason. But we live in a day n age where more men can’t control emotions & are insecure. & those are the older people, I can’t imagine what our Next generations will look like.

[@ArnoldPswagga]

The pod on Patreon sounds way more clean and crisp

These fires have nothing to do with times that were living in. These types of disasters have been happening in the world, it's just that we as Americans only pay attention when it comes to our doorstep. We live in a bubble and have a narrow view of world events
