They gotta talk about go-to hood meals. they put that on the back burner and haven’t returned to it.

Me being from Florida, it sounds weird as hell hearing Joe say none of them have cars when money is not the issue. I know NYC is different, but when you add up the uber/taxi bill, rental cars, you might as well get something of your own.

Nigga Spotify, a lucrative platform, has content of hers that they’re making money on without giving anything to her or having any type of contract with her.

The rest of the pod SOLD that content which mean they all got paid for it, except her. She’s 100% right.

but you can still see those INTPL episodes on soundcloud my g.

I can't watch "Knock Yourself Out" on soundcloud. And that's one of the greatest pod episodes of all time

Bro it does not matter where it is

If soundcloud was making money off those episodes then she’d have a right to complain about them too.

Spotify is still actively making bank off content of hers, she deserve to get paid

they. weren't.

both joe and rory was paying out of pocket for years my g.

The ONLY way they was making money was off ads and joe budden f***ed those bags up MAD times.

Bro im not talking about what they were doing. I’m talking about what they are doing NOW.

Spotify is still making $$$ when you stream those old episodes, that’s why she should be getting paid now.

Also btw the pod niggas made money off those s***s because they also sold their back catalogue (of which she was a part) to Spotify for MONEY. She also should be getting paid for that.

this f.gt really said we byke on his pod smh

Absolutely No One:
Mal: Its Jamaica. That's how they do it over there

Ayo Safaree a sick ass nigga

“Rory wanna go with me”

She was compensated for her work when the podcast wasn't on spotify though, so why should she get another dime from the Spotify contract?

Does anyone here still listen to Brilliant Idiots? Andrew's argument today about America's poverty vs. other countries was infuriating and disingenuous as hell if not just outright misinformed. I feel gross and mad and I'm not even that type of person usually.

I've been listening to Flagrant2 a ton recently just to supplement JBP to give a better idea of the type of person/fan I am

He's had immature political takes plenty of times before but this one just felt crazy out of touch when he thought he was really being introspective about the state of our country

Really didn't expect Charla to counter so many of Andrew's points as well as he did. Only redeeming factor of listening through

Because they're using her voice and her words and her contributions and they get paid off of streams

How does it make sense that Mal gets a share of the revenue generated by episodes from back then instead of her?

Also they sold their back catalog to Spotify, so she should have gotten a portion of that as well.

That's like if we made a song together and put it on band camp on we make 2k that we share

Then we have a dispute and aren't friends anymore, we stop working together

Eventually that song becomes a #1 hit, you're still on it, and you don't get s***.

Unless she relinquished her rights of course but why the f*** would she do such a thing

Haven’t listened to them in ages but they’re such a chaotic combination of personalities like charla is smart in his own right but he lacks any kind of critical thinking & Andrew is like a dumb ass that can use his comedic brain to express what seem like novel & on their surface interesting takes. The result of those two talking about anything remotely serious or nuanced is so woat

He’s made this argument before and it sucks eveytime.

What exactly is his argument? Not in the mood to listen to his BS.

Idk doesn't that depend on how contracts are drawn up though? Whether you get points on the back end or forgo that for a bigger upfront pay check is to be negotiated. But If I paid you up front then that is over with. I think it would be in good faith for them to break her off a piece since she did contribute overall to the podcast, but idk about it being required.

You could say she is owed royalty checks from the back catalog, being streamed I guess but I don't know how that works with podcast tbh. If it's like a TV show running reruns, the actors are entitled to their royalty checks. If episodes with her are getting streamed regularly, then yes I would agree that they owe her something.

Basically using the classic “kids are starving in Africa so why are you mad??” argument to downplay American frustrations.

Dude been using that argument since 2015 lol, glad I stopped listening to that s***

The way they be clowning Mal for still trying to have the cool guy persona when he almost 40 with no girl.

Never watched it because I dislike them both and this just further enforces my opinion on them.

Have their numbers been going down or up? Feel like it fell off in popularity as well anyway.

What was so infuriating about it?
