"PRESSURE PICKS" - The Grove 1-29 Podcast: Ep 18 (Season 4)

[@AcedOnez]

The grove cast getting old and mature i see 😭 they dont like to argue no more on no topics😭 where the ningen vibes at😭

[@AlehhTooNice]

@@kingkong-vw6dxit’s a hard spot to be in tbh, you wanna say certain things but you also can’t knowing where you wanna be. I miss season 1 as much as you do but season 1 was before cancel culture was a thing. Now are we big enough to get canceled? No, not right now but we tryna get there and by there I don’t mean canceled😂

[@R2XC]

​@@AlehhTooNicey'all giving us hourly workers content on our commutes/shift man and that alone is enough. Can't please everyone 🤙🏿

[@henrykasenburg1115]

Matt and Froob aren’t there that’s why. Both of them were never afraid of taking things too far 😂

[@ArdentTake]

I mainly just listen to these while I work on something else, but everyone having cams on makes some moments better or funnier 😂 And right on for the streams, y’all been more consistent this year.

[@AcedOnez]

Matt different 😭 he said ”hoes you have fun with” that man preaching that underground gospel

[@chineychin8514]

I hope Alehh sees this but it goes for everyone. Don't waste your time reading the TYBW manga, the anime started diverting a bit as well to add more story and provide that context we all need. Kubo has been cooking in the anime. I loved reading Bleach when I tell you...TYBW anime GOATED.

[@AlehhTooNice]

Preciate it, I’ll give it another chance.

Castor killed me at the end😂

[@WorkDayDreaming]

Broooooo I’m literally watching him on twitch rn. Imma spin back when the session is over 🙏🏾 🙏🏾

[@AcedOnez]

I think aleeh is backpedaling a lil bit because i remember the episode when they were arguing about the angel reese and caitlin clark feud and aleeh said that the major component of why it was blowing up as much was because of this race component that was pushing the publicity if caitlin was black that feud between her and angel is not getting pushed as hard as it was the fact that she’s a phenomenal WHITE BASKETBALL player definitely gives her the edge in terms if stardom lets be frl

[@AlehhTooNice]

It’s hard to say now with just how much of an impact she has had on the WNBA. Does the racial factor play a part in the feud being as big as it has, yes. But I would also argue that she doesn’t need it. She’s single handedly changing the WNBA narrative by herself. Example, we ain’t ever gave a women a shot to beat a man in their respect sports 1v1 until now. I wouldn’t even be mad if someone were to say she could beat some g league players. Do I agree, no but I can see why they would think that. My point being I’ve grown to respect Caitlyn based off her game not the media attention/narrative and that’s where I can come off as super anti Angel because I don’t believe her game is comparable to the media attention she gets. Even as I’m tying it, it comes off super hater like😂. End of the day they both stepping stops for JuJu, who I think will have the biggest impact on the WNBA

[@R2XC]

​@@AlehhTooNice If the off court stuff was hypothetically taken out her coverage, she'd still be an all-star caliber player and probably still top 5 rookie season arguably I'm a Chicago sky homer so it was frustrating seeing all the discourse stemming from essentially her envy of Cait, but I don't knock her personally for maximizing opportunities/bag in her own way

[@R2XC]

She decides her own ceiling as a player with obvious weaknesses offensively, but her floor which is what we got this year still keeps her in the league and a B tier big at worst for 10+ years

[@ScattaBrained]

Bruno mars isn’t in Debt btw, that was just a rumor

[@slimeballdae]

thats why you gotta do your own research. niggas believe anythinggg 😭

Wild ending but a good ass episode yall boys 🙌🏾

[@hoodie7257]

The talking over each other was OD this episode

[@R2XC]

Fun topics today. Y'all know ball fr damn near all the films brago named I ended up binging on deployment two years ago. And alehh a real one for always shouting out ex machina. Girl with dragon tattoo prob my favorite thriller (same director as gone girl), but some joints I'd also throw out off the binge are zodiac, Dunkirk, the prestige, carol, imitation game, Irishman, orphan black, and winning time HBO

[@carmelosmith8782]

I still have Jack Nickleson Over Heaths Joker. Jacks joker is spot on to the joker in the comics and animated series.

[@jammaroni]

That was the worst Rapper Draft I have ever heard❤ (Matt had the best team I fear though)

[@durane7883]

Who would you have drafted?

[@ScattaBrained]

Its sad how people right Joker 2 off bc off it being a musical bc if u accept that, its a great film and story, especially the end imo. Joaquin phoenix An Amazing diff take on joker, but ofc Heath is still my Goat. Heath 1, Phoenix 2nd

[@WzDk13]

Great story. Did we watch the same story because all I saw was everything that happened to Arthur's character be completely meaningless and reverted through this movie. Then that garbage retcon ending was just insult to injury on an already bad movie.

[@ScattaBrained]

@@WzDk13 No we didn’t see the same movie l, bc if you thought it was meaningless then you clearly didn’t watch or don’t get it, He was even more fleshed in this movie and it even expanded on how other view him more, and it tied the events of last movie and his past well., I’d talk about it more but i’m not gonna spoil in the comments. And what are you talkin about retcon, nothing was retconed that’s just what people think but imo it was the plan all along

[@ScattaBrained]

@@WzDk13and tbh if the ending was retconned, it’s good still, but like i said i believe this is what they intended from the start.

[@WzDk13]

@@ScattaBrained No Arthur's character was just reverted from the 1st. The end of 1 was meant to be him coming out of his cocoon and becoming the joker. And you could clearly care Todd Phillips didn't like that people like and was sympathetic for Arthur so just removed that whole character arc he had to make him a loser again. I didnt even get to the musical parts but wow were they pointless and boring. And the ending is without a doubt a retcon i mean in the actual script of the 1st one it legit says Arthur is now the joker lol and to have some random character that you barely saw was meant to be joker all along... what an actual joke of a movie, so glad it flopped.

[@ScattaBrained]

@@WzDk13 lol so all im seeing is you believing your opinions to be fact. Feel how u want on the music, but you are not the writers or directors lol, but His character was def more fleshed out in this and the ending is dope imo bc of how they fleshed out the character was made and the end theory possibility imo of the the Guy who killed arthur being heath ledger's joker or a diff timeline of him is fire to me, bc in the end you see him Cut the sides of his mouth, Like heath said his dad did in "The Dark Knight", and i thought that didn't make sense bc Heath told a diff story, but realizing its joker it could be easily written off as he isn't telling a real story and just made it up, which would be in line with jokers character, making it cool and good imo, but ik thats just a theory, Like i said to you tho, you're not the writer or directors so it being "retconned" is just a belief yall mfs have. But we'll agree to disagree

[@Clown_Syndrome]

Aleh be having the worst takes on everything.
