This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

I'm Daniel Alarcon, and this is my friend. This is much more famous than I am. I wouldn't go that far, but I'm John Green. Co-hosted the podcast The Away End with my old friend Daniel. On our podcast, The Away End, we'll share with you the magic of international football, all leading up to the 2026 World Cup.

Together, we'll find out why, of all the unimportant things, football, soccer, is the most important.

Listen to the away end with Daniel Auerkone and John Green on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

All right. You ready, homie? I'm ready. Let's do it. All right, ladies and gentlemen,

Hood Politics with Prop this week.

So happy to have another guest.

This year, like, man.

So look, Ryan, normally we don't do a lot of guests for a number of reasons.

One was after doing enough focus groups got to realize

it like i don't know if that's what the people want um and then secondly for me it was like the

the stress levels and the feelings of rejection when people tell you no or when they don't respond

i just be like i don't want to like be at

the mercy of everybody's schedule you know what i'm saying um but and some of that was just like

you know you got to get your weight up like if your show is like you know what i'm saying like you

actually you know doing something like you get it like if you're doing something it's like you know

people will start making time for you but that being said, the guests we have had over the years have been like my own friends network, extended network, people that I've known doing, you know, dope stuff.

But the hope was always to bring to the table people that are just who

understand what you're doing. You know what I'm saying? So like, this is what I like about what we're

about to talk right now. There's, there's a moment, there's moments that it's necessary for you

to step in front of the camera, be on, you know, be on the stage, take the mic and like, and deliver, you know what I'm saying? Where it's just like, all right, you got to get up there and cook. And then there's other times when you need to go round the back into the kitchen, go behind everybody and be like, y'all don't know what we're working on back here.
