Joe: "Contractual you have obligations, friendship aside" Joe 3 minutes later: "I don't give a fuck about contracts" This man will say anything to avoid accountability.

[@Mac_Raymond]

He doesn't give a fuck about a contract when he's bound but wants to go and bind others to the contracts. Joe is the guy who complains about being jerked in his career and will go on to jerk other people the same way. Joe was never principled, he switches his stance on so many things based what is good for him at the moment not what is right or wrong.

You missed what Joe was saying. The shit is about entitlement. You don't owe NOBODY shit unless they ya kids or responsibility. They making a living by being there. They showed that they don't care about the podcast AS MUCH as he does so they can be the WORKERS and he make the boss decisions because it's the joe Budden mf podcast this why friends and family mixed with business never works out.

[@casono]

@@xLamont_ The problem is Joe's brain has been ruined by drugs so he has a hard time grasping the perspective of people who believe that if you both consider yourself to be friends, have a history of knowing each, sharing life moments, know each other's family, events and overall have a fantastic standing then MOST PEOPLE believe that you and they OWE each other honesty and communication. The problem is Joe doesnt feel he owes anyone anything to anybody but he also said he shows respect to strangers in the street. Then Mal asked if they deserve it then Joe didnt answer the question 3 times then admitted no they dont. Joe's brain is kaput. Joe has said before he has "Never lost a friend cus of *some words*." Thats a funny statement cus its both Gaslighting and a completely stupid statement to make if you value your friends outside of monetary gain which he has eluded to that he doesnt. Joe doesnt understand a lot which is fine because hes human but being ignorant isnt the same as being stupid. Joe is stupid.

@@bmike633 on top of that. When he keeps saying "where could you do what you did and just come back" basically saying where can you challenge your boss to hands & expect him not to tell you to stay home.

[@bmike633]

To be honest I haven't heard the podcast in a little while so I didn't hear the whole throwing hands thing but when they brought that up that is ridiculous Rory looks like a cornball You're on a show called the The Joe Budden podcast and you're trying to fight your boss Joe button that would wipe the floor with you is ridiculous so I think the only thing Joe was wrong about was the way he treated Mal and mal was probably just like yo let's all get together the white boy has feelings I don't want to mess up what we got going on it's really not that hard but Rory is definitely an executive Cornwall it's not about what your boss gets it's about what you bring to your bosses workplace now if the podcast was called the three amigos or something stupid then they should all have a piece of pie but Joe is not a dummy he's getting the biggest piece because he is the biggest showman and they let it happen so stop whining and do your job.

[@Quislvl]

@@bmike633 its not even that. Joe put up the capital to talk that talk. And what he said to mal was that exact point. It isnt none of your business contractually.

This proves Mal is the only person on this Pod with self respect and not a kiss ass. This made me respect him so much more.

[@C_The_Guy]

funny cause people used to love calling Mal AND Rory a bunch of Joe yes-men back in the day lol

[@danielcamacho4166]

Nah they were all wrong but rory and mall were pussy for leaving. They should have squared up or just argued until they worked it out. This should have been resolved in 1 week

[@flyguyfee]

ITS BUSINESS... that’s why u don’t do BIG BUSINESS with friends... u can’t expect a man to stop how he eat and put food on the table for his family to just hault production for PERSONAL issues

[@karlsylvain]

nah. joe just went overboard and really dissed mal in that backyard convo. that`s why he left. joe admited that he shouldnt have said what he said. nobody is a kiss ass. sometimes in fights , you go extra hard on the people you know the most ,thinking that they can take it because of your history.

[@flyguyfee]

You wouldn’t expect that from someone that’s not your friend. They record 2-3 times a week, it’s ample time resolve shit but when u dealing with business issues become In reconcilable when friends are involved, due to the personal emotional attachment that not even business related... shudnt have told him it’s non of his business, but niggas still got to eat period

[@mykkePet]

I would love to see a psychological case-study on the group of people here who have listened to Joe through this episode and feel he wasn't in violation in several ways. The support for him is actually intriguing. I need to know more about these people.

[@JM-qn3tf]

You’re just slow

[@KaituoKid]

it's cuz there are narcissists and mentally ill and clout chasers in this world, not saying those are joe budden fans exlusively but people who think he was in the right in this issue, these are the malicious, scammers, narcissists of the world you don't want to run in with IRL. It's not like joe and his personality disorders is unique and not a certain template of a type of person, and you bet alot are successful if we're looking at money as a measure, but then they have multiple baby momas and broken families, so success and happiness is subjective. I digress lol

[@santiagojones5848]

Joe had 2 moments that completely nullified their entire stance. When he explained that their views on how things should be prioritized in regards to it being a job and mending friendships (to them) vs his life's work 41:20-44:00. The nail in the coffin was his poetic justice remark at 1:04:00. It put the entirety of the scenario into context and showed the contradictory nature of their actions in general.

[@patrickm6778]

@@santiagojones5848 rury and mall's point was that they felt there was no transparency. they were allegedly asking Joe for accounting and a xl sheet emailed from his manager wasn't going to be acceptable to them. also with the alleged errors with in the xl spread sheet was a problem for them too. why hasn't Joe ever addressed any of those parts of the disagreement ?

[@FreeBandz658]

The only people who think joe is right are his core fanbase,fellow narcissists and dinner with jay z posse who think they know everything about business

[@MosMoney187]

Mal was repeating himself over and over and the word Respect was said abouy 50 times

[@damianbrowne847]

Mal asks Joe to look at the situation as friends but Joe replies with ‘you are contracted’. However, when he needs to pull on it he expects Mal to consider their 20 year friendship.

[@nasa5700]

Bruh was thinking the samething .. he referred to the 20 year deep relationshipwith mal then doesnt hold that point when it goes against him . Hypocrisy at its finest

How’s Joe gonna say “take time off” and agreed “everyone go to their separate corners” then say they abandoned him. Wild! 🙄

He said they but I think he was singling out mal right there

I think he only talking about Mal. Him and Rory had an agreement, while Mal not showing up blind sided him.

[@TheBigPoobah223]

The amount of times Mal said “respect” in this episode is so important. And I don’t think Joe heard it one time. If someone don’t value respect, it ain’t finna work. As you can see.

[@fawcue5844]

He also said transparency a lot too...meaning he wanted to know details about deals Joe was making and how much money the pod was bringing cuz he felt he wasn't getting enough even tho he said he don't care about money
