A Message From The Kings

So yeah, Welcome to Culture Kings. We don't usually open our podcast so formally but shit fuck it shit's different. Yeah, the week has been crazy. It's the last week has felt like a several years.

It's been pretty fucking nuts man. I mean, listen, you know, I I think is no secret to everybody that

since we moved over to Earwolf the the podcast as far as recording and drops have

changed whereas in a past we as far as recording and drops have changed.

Where it's been a past we were able to kind of touch on

current events and it'll be a little bit more topical than we normally are.

and even like you said, like this, the era production,

are usually recorded and I'm not joking one month in advance.

So you know, there's been a lot of shit going on in the past week, you know.

The funny thing about it, dude, is outside of when George Floyd, the George Floyd thing happened, we've had, you know, the

the Maude Aubrey, we've had the Brianna Taylors, and we had the Amy Cooper shit and it just

filled up and piled up and piled up and piled up and

and where almost those things feel like they were ages ago but they were literally

days ago and and it's just been non-fucking stopped bro so it's been a it's been a rough week man. I found myself, you know, angry, sad, upset, frustrated. I find myself hating white people.

I find myself, I find myself wanted to educate and then I find myself not wanting to give it down to educate.

You know, the whole gambit of emotions has been crazy.

To second what you're saying, I mean, I think myself, you know, already kind of having this identity crisis with my blackness has been sent to 100, you know, I found myself at the protest on Saturday

Each week, comedians Jacquis Neal and Edgar Momplaisir dive into topics ranging from sports and music to what's the best way to eat a taco? (Head straight up or askew) WE DO IT FOR THE CULTURE!
