YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT WOULDA BEEN EPIC! Swaggy is playing too much, and Jared is too cool. Channing woulda said what needed to get said! Fred woulda supported and Ocho woulda chilled AB out while they goin in.
This was a conversation for the original cast. No disrespect to the other host but the emotion of Brandon, Chad’s insight and intelligence, Fred’s wisdom, and Channing being Channing would have took this to new heights…felt empty.
I respect Ab more being Man Coach disrespect him told him gtfo here Ab took equiment off an left Marshall being uncle tom talking about coperate america Ab said fuck that Guys from hood nfl try own them Ab was hurt didnt want play Coach who is European told him gtfo here told him leave ab left Media who run by racist betrayed this guy mental saying got Cte brady throwing ipads,curse out other team coach not saying he need help Ab leave after being disrespected an cut during game Espn,Fs1 racist network Kristas Porzingis accused rape never espn Connor Mcgregor accused rape 3time not espn Watson case espn everyday Ab case females after Porzingis rape case Espn racist Usa media structure sameway
Brandon hasn't learned yet that you can't convince others of your point of view. Particularly with someone like AB it's best to just *listen* because the more you push him to explain his position the more he doubles down. I've saved so much time and energy with this new approach to people, particularly difficult people.
B didn't try to convince AB that his way is the best way. I felt that he tried show AB a broader view of it. Doesn't say that AB handle it wrong, like he said it was the way he felt in his heart he would handle it. My personal opinion is that media listing him as the crazy person after the way he handle it. Im more on B's side. Take it to the press conference and let the org take the bad lights.
Brandon also was doubling Down on his opinion.. AB did the exact same thing with his opinion.. Crazy How It's, An AB problem lol. I see 2 Men that are cool with each other,But They just don't agree on some things...
Fred and Ocho really needed to be in this conversation. Their intelligence and wisdom is much much needed even Channing to hit AB upside the head an call him out on BS
Exactly they were stars for there team. No respect to B, he had some great years but he ain’t that guy and Channing needed to be there to say shit like “ But AB, you just had to stay at the Raider for 4days you would of got 11MIL??? You crazy dog” 😂😂😂 ps I can’t remember the actual amount but it was only 4days
Maybe someone need to call you out on your BS because you can’t take it when someone speak their mind and when someone stand up for them selves, if you’re clearly able to look in the mirror and not see any flaws with yourself then your statement is good
I agree with you. yet, AB would probably walk off because i dont think he would be able to sit and just listen/take in their wisdom, blessings. Notice the Pivot wasnt given "Flowers" but other podcast were. Hmmmm....
this interview is the prime example of why pivot was created. all the problems we had with the previous season is still here. Brandon doesn't let anyone get their stuff off but can't answer a yes or no direct question in less than 3 sentences.
Ugh, please don’t praise him. He has terrible judgment. If you don’t understand that, you are far from intelligent. He also listens to talk, he does not really entertain differing viewpoints. That’s worth doing in a multitude of scenarios.
For what? AB is 33 calling B. Marsh (37) an old head. Fred Taylor is 45, he wouldn't listen. He doesn't care about that green jacket. Fred & B do, so the wisdom would be a waste.
AB is a grown ass man. He articulated exactly what he meant. He wasn’t willing to compromise his mental health to comply with a coach who had bottled up animosity towards him & then disrespected him. Fred couldn’t have changed AB’s perspective.
He's not being authentic when he says that. He ran off the field because the way he was being treated that day made him feel worthless. He was literally running away from the feeling. He's very affected by others opinions of him. Not to mention it was compounded by a year of feeling unwanted by everyone on the team. If you listen carefully to him you will see the cracks in his ego. AB feels a lot...his problem is he can't own those feelings so he runs away instead.
@@lisabrightly How did he run away? He was cut from the team during a game. If you get fired from your job while you’re on the clock are you going to leave or are you going to finish your shift and then leave?
Muhammed Ali once said "The price of freedom is high" what he was referring to was the act or acts of expressing your integrity in ways that free you to be who you are, will sometimes cost you. And that cost will be huge. AB chose to express himself as opposed to be silent or compromising his pride. He was willing to pay the high price of expressing his freedom therefore he went to the next level instead of acquiescing to others behavior. Of course, he was emotional in the moment but he seems to be willing to pay the high price of being free to express himself freely. Bravo
I needed Chad , Channing , & Fred for this . It should’ve definitely been in Miami so AB could be a little more comfortable. He appeared to be guarded .
it didnt help that B Marsh kept getting into his space and then when AB would make a statement, his body posture would lean forward into his space, almost challenging him. He just isnt the guy for this.
He was being hella guarded. He was asking about Kanye and mondona and fun shyt and this guy AB was just being dull asf. “Yea be a icon” duh! We know that just talk about the shyt and have fun bro
It didn’t feel like it ALMOST ALL OF IT WAS LEFT OUT . They didn’t contradict him once ! Didn’t compare his version of events with other people just took all he said as gospel 🤣🤣🤣. They were even scared to ask him about Brady and how he did him dirty …
Exactly! Chad & Channing wouldn’t bit their tongue at all. AB was talking in circles saying a lot & never really said a word. Low key waste if a interview without the original crew.
Love Jared’s input in all these conversations! He well spoken and puts thought into his questions. He even got AB to shut up and listen while he was talking!
It's over they moved on Fred an channing didn't like his direction you can't force anyone to see your vision they didn't like having guess appearances they thought it was just gonna be them it's. Cool they still friends😁
It was very telling during the whole "Giving Flowers" discussion how Brandon shouted out Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson's pod, NORE'S pod, but not his day 1 dudes that helped him grow this platform, Fred and Channing and what they are doing with Ryan Clark on the Pivot.
He’s went the financial route. I just don’t understand how you can make millions upon millions playing and still be so money hungry. Barnes is a straight clown per Kwame Brown. I went to the same school as his kids and I swear he kisses up to white ppl but will not acknowledge u if ur black and walk past u.
If you actually listened to what he said he was s/o those he was learning from people who have been doing this podcasting before him who he probably reached out to as he got started…stop raving looking for conflict smh
B Marsh might as well have a show by Hisself cause can’t nobody else talk except him damn. Everytime somebody else make a point he take the floor back 🤣🤣😂
Big fan of B Marshall and the show. I've noticed he always talks about having a real conversation and being honest but he can't handle it unless its on his terms.
He’s a total narcissist! He makes everything about him. Why even have guest cohosts at this point? We learned absolutely nothing new from this sham of an interview….because Brandon couldn’t take the focus off him.
@@AprilLashon yes and I was excited to hear ABs story. But this interview I just learned how B Marshall felt about ABs situation. This interview was a Total fail!
True and he even try to make look like he had shit to do about how AB became great and impose himself as his OG hahaha!!! And he even made OBJ hahaha He trying too hard to look educated and part of corporate america smfh
I can truly respect AB. He’s choosing his worth over money and disrespect and people don’t realize everything ain’t always about money especially when that means you have to belittle yourself for it.
All I’ve ever seen was this dude disrespect other people, then play the victim. His last podcast with Bob Menery was all about his money in his “prove it” contract. I have yet to see a hint of sincerity out of AB.
What he said towards the end made perfect sense and honestly put everything in perspective about his decision. All he did was walk off a job like a normal employee, his job just has tons of media coverage. I've walked off jobs before when i no longer felt appreciated or respected. So to that point, i respect it
@@Ramses_VII that’s the point. He’s not working at Subway. He’s supposed to be a “superstar” NFL player worthy of a hefty contract. That should require some professionalism. What if Biden said fuc$ it, and walked away like that?
@@ttooooll24 I personally haven’t seen the podcast with Bob Menery but in this one I’m just pointing out exactly what he’s saying. I mean the proof Is in the pudding.. he’s going to put him first and as he should doesn’t matter when your title is. If you’re unhappy with your Job, leave! The problem is people think because these people are in the spotlight that they aren’t human beings. “Superstars” make mistakes, hate their jobs, etc. They’re humans .
This is a conversation that Channing and Fred would have definitely made this....... a bigger conversation. Y'al need that fluidity with the personalities and the jokingly Channing and the OG Fred would have pushed the convo. They were definitely needed in this one. The dynamic was off. A.B. needed that channing ice breaker joke
Channing was entertaining when he was on here but that shid is dead cuz they let the genie out the bottle and made the landscape open to better personalities.
And even trying to watch poor Jared try to step in and add some depth to the conversation was painful to watch. Not even sure why they keep asking him back because Brandon doesn’t allow him to shine. I think Jared is very wise. He was trying to reel in the conversation but he played his position.
AB probably said he wouldn't do it if Channing and Ocho was there. AB is a fool but he isn't stupid. He is not trying to be held accountable. He knows Channing would've took his butt to task
@@asundelgun3487 I think he would have did it. Alpha males don't bow down or run from anyone. I just think this conversation could have pushed forward more with the original cast because this was a touchy topic that they have handled well in the past like cam newton, deion sanders, etc. Channing also recognized that he was poodle amongst pits. He humbled himself because he knew everyone in that room was hall of fame.
Brandon this was probably the most highly anticipated interview to date. You should have let AB speak more. His perspective is his truth. We know how you would have reacted. It would have been more impactful to see you give flowers
AB already did a podcast and they just let him run the show without tuff questions. It was kind of stupid and pointless. So of course this podcast was meant to be more of a teaching moment, Not to just let AB continue to ramble on about his mindset
What insightful info did AB really have to say? In both podcast interviews he’s done since the incident he’s either been defensive or not interested in directly addressing anything, a lot of deflection from the point at hand In this one it looked like he didn’t want to speak at all How do you come on a podcast and look like your being forced to speak, questions asked with 1 word answers knowing they want you to expand.
Yes.. when Brandon get on his soap box and start talking about his career or or his stint at McClain hospital...... everyone get out if his way...it's Oscar time! Not being insensitive...he need to learn timing....
Great interview! AB is unique. When you from Florida you stand out. He shared his side. Bucs coach said his side. Fans of the sport are gonna have there opinions. But AB said it best. “Anyone at a job where the boss says to you get the fuck out of here, that’s what I did!” Professionalism out the door! I felt that, gotta respect it. When you at a job and you don’t feel appreciated how do you act??
Professionalism should always be there because you have to worry about future employers especially when it’s on film. Made himself look unstable when he already has a history that goes back to college. Imagine a job that’s thinking about hiring you having video of taking of your shirt, knocking over your desk, kicking over the water cooler on your way out of your last job. They probably won’t hire you.
@@Crjeff someone who realizes respect is earned. This fool has acted like a child way before this last incident. Surrounding himself with yes men isn't going to help.
@Erimias G Yeah, he sounded drunk and/or like he was on something too. Who talks like that Sober. Especially after what has happened why would you do that To yourself?! You are either delusional, or just not a good person if you side with this POS-who knows who cares.
Don't miss it!!! AB just brought the NFL into the everyday job!! He don't stand for the NFL; he stand on his very own principles. Recognize young men!!
Nah fr explain what that means cuz it just sounds like he’s preaching if you make a scene/situation rather than handling your business like an adult, you should be entitled to get what you want🤦🏿♂️
Everybody forgets about the TEAM his "BROTHERS!!" They co.e first,and your comment is what's wrong with this situation! It's about team and brotherhood,ab ain't shit without his teammates so fuck him!!
That's why he blows 30 million dollar contracts. His dumbass missed the whole point of Brandon Marshall talking about his goals dictating his behavior. You act like AB's response is the only way to go about it. You telling me if you have a choice between responding with respect for yourself while keeping your money and opportunities vs losing both you gonna choose the latter???? Hell outta here.
@@3323aharris 30 million ain’t shit to him …. Bro made bank in Pitt , bro makes music , does alot of interviews and podcast and guest appearances and I’m pretty sure he had or still has a Nike deal i can be wrong. AB set. Why have a 30 million dollar incentive when you mentally unhappy
Exactly my thoughts they let him slide on the “situations” that led to the tension and swaggy is wild he yes maned AB down the whole episode like a fan no opinion just happy to be there
@@Itsloco314 we don’t know if Ryan failed him he used to plan his kids birthday. Two sides Ryan said he switched up when the money and fame came. AB probably feel like something else
I love how Brandon couldn’t control this interview.. if Fred, Chad, and Channing was there I believe they would’ve been able to All control the interview.. and got down to some serious issues that could truly be exposed in the NFL by AB..
Lmao when I first saw this podcast with that Justin Jefferson episode, I initially thought it was Ocho's show. Brandon don't know jack shyt about having a "show", yet he is obviously dreaming about going mainstream/network, the reason he features racist ass Nascar... All he do is talk about himself, and share his shallow views as if it is a fact. Best thing he ever did was to have Ocho, Fred and Channing, now he done fucked up lol
@@Dreflow18 handling a situation like a professional and not throw a childish tantrum should be the bare minimum. All he needed to do was contact the players union and his lawyers. That's not compromising anything.
The more I hear talking AB, the more I realize he has a vast and better understanding on emotional intelligence, mental health and character than the majority of us. People want to judge him, but I want to see those people to stay cool and not to react in the same situation that AB faced. Like AB said, everybody has different way of reaction and nobody is going to agree with that reaction as the pure definition of reaction is to be in that moment. You are one of the greatest AB, please keep playing football and keep sharing all that magic in your receptions!!!
Jared Odrick should’ve been the host. Brandon has to become a better listener. Tons of pivotal moments he missed because he wanted to be right instead of listen to what AB was saying. Thank you AB for bringing the world into your mental space. I hope all athletes are tuned in. This is needed.
Straight up. The dude is constantly interrupting people when they’re trying to talk, he isn’t even listening to what’s being said because he’s always trying to get his argument off. We want to listen to what people have to say without someone tryna talk over them every 5 seconds
This needed the OG’s Chad for the bond he got with AB, Fred for the wisdom, Channing for his insight understanding and JO also bc the way he carries a convo
All the respect in the world to Brandon for starting up this platform and all his other endeavors but sometimes he needs to be able to properly assess when he isn't the focus. People tuned in to get AB's insight on how things transpired, not how B Marsh would have handled things and all that other ish he was talking about.
I understand that but B Marshall was trying to impart some knowledge onto AB so that he doesn’t waste the twilight of his physical prime being out the league
@@KDubb-ws9zc B Marshall during the height of his career was just as erratic as this brother and although it's no fault of his own as football is a team game, AB has reached heights in the league that Brandon unfortunately didn't get a chance to achieve during his career. I'm not saying it's right, but it's hard to listen to someone who didn't achieve all of the individual and team success that you had. AB broke it down tremendously. He disregarded the 30 Mil because he wanted to be a champion and play on a contender. That's a move that B Marsh probably wouldn't necessarily make because he has chased the bag throughout his entire career and to this day, is still chasing the bag.
There's already a full hour and a half podcast of AB telling his side. He does a horrible job of playing victim so it would be pointless to do another podcast with his insight.
They don’t wanna hear that tho . Just cause he in the nfl they expect him to act a certain way … a job is a job at the end of the day 😂 I would’ve walked out too gmfu
@@trollingfacts3382 I would've showed the team they needed me, but errybody different. I think that's the point AB was trynna make. Nobody's situation or reaction to a situation is gonna be identical.
AB made great points while Brandon wasn't listening and kept trying to get his point about himself and his career across... Would've loved to see the original cast have this interview.
Doubt it would happen with the old crew Fred too real and Channing would get fed up with the conversation. I doubt Ryan could even do it because AB would be trying to run a fade from past remarks. The Brandon take is common which made this unwatchable because it's " I did this, I did that" and he had a great career but is it HOF
@@NickiesNiche you sound dumb he does this every show. For those of us who actually watch this I’m sure we’d all appreciate it if he’d let the guest speak
Bro thank you! Jared was pulling things out of AB like ABs uncle being religous. We coulda got that whole conversation but then he would get cut off by Brandon.
Brandon dropped the ball. He needed to stop talking over AB, and stop trying to push his agenda in his attempt to “teach” AB. IAMATHLETE misses the original cast and it’s glaring in an episode like this.
B marsh let AB talk every time, it AB that kept talking over him not letting him finish his point, then he gets mad n don’t wanna answer questions like some shit a kid would do, like are we watching the same interview???
Yeah AB definitely was on some disrespectful isht! But that's how young n-words act towards the OGs as a whole in life! They don't like to listen they just wanna be heard!
I think they underestimate how much of the show's success was based on the cast that they had. Channing, Chad and Fred are not only very entertaining. But they also come at things from all kinds of (sometimes hilarious or ludicrous) perspectives and with a dose of raw honesty balanced with intelligence and humor. This would have been an entirely different conversation with that cast of people. Missed opportunity imo.
A lot of people dont get it. AB walking away from the Football field in "that manner" did cost him some opportunities. But what ya'll dont realize is it also opened a lot of opportunities. This is what AB is saying. Throughout his career, everyone was telling him to change who he is, and whatever. But his decisions led to Tom Brady personally wanting to team up with him to win the SB. You guys are programmed to think a certain way, but nothing in life is promised. Imagine if he did what everyone else wanted him to do and never got the results that he got after. He's turning into a pop culture icon. I dont even watch football like that, but I pay attention to AB's moves because he's ona different kind of timing. I dont gotta overexplain what I'm saying, if ykyk
This was PERFECT example of how 2 great NFL players view their situations post career. B Marsh won't say it but he realized he was played by the system even though he thought he was going out his "own way" no... You went the way the system planned it to for a player who acts outta character. AB TRULY went out his way and still has access to play and will be done when HE WANTS not when the league says and only some people will realize that's the true peace of mind, being done in YOUR TERMS. Being great has its benefits and they both worked hard for where they are! Great pod!
AB can still give u 1000yards n 10+TDs b marsh slowed down b4 ab and he was hot early in his career AB started actin up when he was arguebly the best WR in the league
This interview completely changed everything I thought about ab and how he handled the last couple years. Much respect to ab. Dudes a beast and I get where he’s coming from. Love is love brother….Bmarsh let that man talk lol
AB is one of the greatest whether he plays again or not. He’s comfortable with the work he’s put in and if this is it it seems he’s at peace with it. The media really will play narratives out here
Yup they He’s crazy as well as Dez Bryant, Ocho cinco, T.O, and others who didn’t just conform. Dez Bryant yells on the side line he’s a distraction..Tom Brady yells he’s just upset. Media controls all thoughts.
@@vonnshort965 lmao nah bro ab put up jerry rice type numbers in his prime came back and won a super bowl he will go down as a top 5 if not top 7 wr of all time
@@EDWARDTHEEAUTHOR Says who? The system got you thinking things should always go how they want it. As long as you can't make your own decisions and your actions is controlled by someone else, you're enslaved.
Roman's 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles (MOST modern day Europeans/Caucasians/ etc) be come in. Part of the blindness is that we would not know who the true Father of Jacob(Israel) was and that we would worship false gods of [wood and stone] partially referring to worship of the cross(wood) and the “idol” of christianity the “jesus” that hangs on the cross tends to be made of (stone). Worship not literally meaning to bow down and speaking in gibberish nonsense tongue waving hands up and down, but rather worshiping meaning “To Submit To/Obey”. The speaking in tongue that some Christians do is nonsense, speaking in tongue only refers to the ability of being able to speak in a language or many languages to spread your message across multiple nations. Smh Deuteronomy 28:36 TMH shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone. Deuteronomy 28:64 And TMH shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone. Just as important as "what's his name," is "what is not his name." However, it is 100% certain that his name was not Esus Crios aka “Jesus Christ”, the idol of the Celtics who the Catholics sing at Easter in the Vatican, aka what all surface level “Holy Bible” readers (Commonly identifies as “Christians”) refer to the Anointed One as.
We have been tricked, deceived as a result of the curses of the law (Deut 28-64)...wake up and stop following the lies of the Gentiles that govern this world. True Israel is awakening. I am no historian but I love researching and proving all truth. It was the so-called "Holy" Roman Catholic Church that banned us from reading certain books. Do not trust the Adversary's agents of deceit and destruction. The Catholic Church is not a good moral compass. Catholic meaning Universal. They literally crusaded all over the world, had TMH’s people murdered, burned women alive, and made laws against poor people (peasants) from having translated Bibles and books of education in the past. Who are they to condemn a book for any of us to read? They are certainly in no position to order us and they are most certainly NOT our Creator nor the Savior. Do not trust those who come in sheep's clothing but are rather ravaging wolves. It has been told of us to be as harmless as doves AND as wise as serpents. For one to be wise, You must research and READ, and educate yourself, AND prove ALL TRUTH. The only one to lead you is The Most High. Pray for insight but don't trust when LIARS tell you NOT to read something but approve of what you “Should”! It is good that we pray for you, and I do hope you pray for me as well. However, the decision is ours as to whether or not we fully submit to his will. The Most High wants us to submit to his will through our own decisions. That is why the Messiah says if any man comes to me, let him deny HIMSELF. That is why the word also says to be transformed by the renewing of OUR minds. That’s why it says every man will have to give an account for what he hath done. It is personal accountability and the sooner we accept this, the closer we will become to actually making the decisions that will make us submit fully to his will And for those of you who deny the existence of The Most High or don’t take the ancient scriptures seriously, you need to seriously wake up. Biblical prophecy is literally unfolding right before our eyes. This is not a game. A few notable mentions (Women wearing makeup need to repent and change (Read the testament of reuben) no debate, people who smoke weed (sorcery) need to repent and change no debate, people who eat upon the flesh of animals aka consumption of death… need to repent and change (one of the huge flaws of the Holy Bible), no debate. Read the Essene Humane Gospel of “Jesus Christ” and the Essene Humane Gospel of Peace, and also the Teaching of the Essenes that go hand in hand with them. These are books that came from the Dead Sea Scrolls, written by ancient israelites however translated by men even around these times.) Read Daniel 12 to understand further why books held in the Vatican are slowly being released now in these end times. Everything is going according to prophecy, even they have to move accordingly. This is indeed a narrow path only for those who truly wish to be saved on the day of Judgment. Go and sin no more and put in work for the kingdom. All Praises To The Most High! Visit Ahayah-Truth.

How happy is he going to be in 10 years when the money has dried up and he never learned how to handle situations that didnt go his way? He will be on some 30 for 30 type special about the rise and fall of AB. He'll be in prison or dead.... At least he did what made him happy until he was 30. I hope I'm wrong....I wont be
@@cabblero5159 bro this is not church!!! No need to preach. And how many King James versions are out there. What you believe are your faith not everyone else’s!! Just saying!
I think this interview could have gone better if Brandon would just let AB talk, explain what happened, what was his mindset at the time and why he did what he did. Give him all the room to express himself instead of trying so hard to tell him how Brandon would have handled it or how it could have been handled differently. Maybe near the end ask him if it played out the way he wanted and if not, what will he be doing moving forward. Then maybe discussion the corporate game and strategy vs the players and various ways to mesh the two together for a win win of knowing when to end it. Coming off the top trying to tell him another way to handle it is not working.
AB cutting off everyone wym 😂 he just keep saying being in control of your emotions is for his mental health. His mindset is one that is going to burn bridges everywhere he goes, and make people not wanna work with him and he saying Bmarsh tripping for not making a scene every time he gets upset. Every player is their own brand, and people think the AB brand is a crazy and childish player who was a gifted athlete.
Yup that shows his ass in public areas and online posting Tom Brady wife or soon to be ex along with scam cases up to today no changes or accountability you say man I say a NIGGGA who got money based on his physical body and skill sad his son grows up with this
Brandon is a control freak number one! Number two, he has the opportunity to allow AB to explain to the world what happened and why he did what he did. But he won't let him without giving how he would have reacted. Its not about you homie! To have that same Coach recently get fined $50k for slapping a player gives sooo much context to AB's story, but you're to focused on trying to be an OG rather than allow more light onto the situation. Give AB the floor, not spend argumentative time in an attempt to correct the man that doesn't need correcting. I love what he's saying! Too many of us black men are afraid to express ourselves when we're being wronged because we're worried about others reactions. "Controlled," as AB stated. I love that! 'F' being controlled! All Brandon needed to say was, "You know what, as a man, you got the right to show your discuss in any situation however you deem it necessary!" He didn't kill nobody or harm anyone when he did what he did. He already knows people are going to judge him. Fuck it! Man don't want me here, I'll excuse myself out the door. He told him during the game. Who has control? Brandon, the Coach should have been the one to maintain his composure. Based off recent events, it's obvious he can't do it himself. Finally, number three, AB alright with me!
AB is right. You don’t have to hold back your emotional reactions to be corporate, civil or obedient. But those reactions can also have consequences. Everyone has decisions to make on all sides.
Ab i respect him more fighting racist media Espn Fs1 need cancel networks Kristas Porzingis Accused Rape never Espn 3weeks later Ab Case females it espn next day Understand Europeans own Usa media So European Porzingis rape case not Advertise Connor Mcgregor 3 rape cases not Espn same Luke walton Watson case espn everyday So advertise black acusation Europeans not advertise nobody bring this up is Disturbing Espn an Fs1 all mainstream media Structure same way
@@breonmitchell2443 you have a point but look at these white players and compare them to the level of the black players and u will see why one is talked about more. The UFC is filled with assaulters and murders but ESPN dosent even talk about the UFC in general. A couple channels talked about Krisnaps but AB was on his way to being the GOAT and garners a different level of attention. This is like the 20th time he’s acted out. Difference between showing emotion and acting like a 5 year old. Cussing on TV being mad that you played bad= showing emotion. AB committing assault and burglary and faces 25 years+ in Prison = just being a shxt person
When I initially saw the teaser last week, a part of me wasn't exactly sure if I thought Brandon could maximize this moment the way the original crew could, collectively. You know? Those four men together, brought so much invaluable wisdom, perspective, and raw insight to bear from their own individual human experiences...in an unprecedented way, and I was so proud. I'm still proud. But there was some depth missing in this interview. Depth that Channing and Fred would have brought for sure, as many of you have already mentioned. Brandon - shout out to you for the level you were trying to reach in terms of substance for your conversation with AB. It was just leaning a bit too much towards your position(s) and vantage point, versus AB's...which is what I think more time could have been devoted to. As far as AB, I'm torn. We absolutely need to strive to be true to ourselves because as AB said - we have to look ourselves in the mirror at the end of the day. At the same time - there's something to be said about the decision we arrive at, in terms of how we choose to handle something. And the greater the moment, the more consideration that 'how' element deserves. That's just my opinion. Either way, each of us have to do us.
I love those guys but this is still "I AM ATHLETE" this is this Gucci Louis Vuitton Bergen bag of athlete's shows this is the Maybach Rolls-Royce Lamborghini huracan of athlete's shows so while we love Chad Johnson Fred Taylor and CC them guys you have to watch this show if you want to watch top athletes give there input on there life with no pre- narrative that is designed to tear them down in front of social media the world.
AB is half and half he’s right then he’s also wrong because he has a history of having conflicts with coaches and some players and should’ve known this is his last chance in the NFL unless a team calls his jack besides that B Marshall has made several good points in this interview i understand every statement he made because like he said no matter what happens a player has a guaranteed contract to abide by and keep their integrity so they can get paid by the end of the year but on top of that AB made a viable point that if a player voiced their feelings about their own physical well being and the coach don’t like it and thinking your making excuses after you already shown texts and X-rays that an injury is building up in your ankle and your knees and then tell you you’re done get tf out of here then therefore the coach is wrong for not showing no consideration and he can’t talk to players like that.
Coldest shit AB said is “I don’t let what people SAY effect who I am” 40:15 when you don’t gaf the universe gonna have your back even when people don’t, sum real spiritual shit most CANT even comprehend💯 much respect for AB his mindset and heart is in the right place despite what outsiders believe or think I can clearly see that
Glad everyone in the comments is feeling the same way about needing Chad, Channing & Fred for this conversation! Jared’s the only level headed one in this convo but he’s not outspoken enough to compete with B’s rah rah and keep him on pace like the other three
Very true, Brandon's not a good listener and he constantly over talks and interrupts. Plus I think he was very cautious when asking his questions. Jared would be better in the pivot.
Jared was able to articulate what AB was trying to say to people who don’t fully understand like B Marsh. This is AB’s way of telling his side of the story. He’s a trailblazer if you really pay attention. I low key feel like B Marsh felt some type of way that Swaggy P agreed with AB about how he would’ve handled this situation lol. But I say all that to say people love calling other people crazy when they go against the status quo. Football is not the end all be all for everyone. That’s what society has to learn. Just because a profession earns you millions doesn’t mean it should own you as a person. AB said sorry I’m a famous person that did what a regular person Would have done at a regular job. Leave after being disrespected knowing I’m putting my health on the line for you. Knowing y’all didn’t even want me in the first place. He has millions so money doesn’t control him. That’s what y’all need to understand. At some point you have to put yourself first. It wasn’t the most professional but the coach wasn’t professional either. I don’t know not one person on earth who hasn’t lost their cool. And if you worried about the Hall of Fame like most nfl players are that’s understandable but like AB said do you remember who won the Super Bowl in 78? Exactly. The real legacy is making sure your love ones are okay. There’s always a new venture out there to earn more money. I don’t have to sacrifice my manhood or my true self.
@@TheBigmac813 lol you’re entitled to your opinion but let me break it down in everyday terms for you. Let’s say you had a business trip for work that required you to fly a couple hours to another city. Before your trip you tell your boss I’m sick but I’ll try to make it and he says okay. You suck it up and actually feel worse once you land and text your boss you won’t be able to make the presentation with your partners. He gets upset and says you’re fired or I’ll be docking your pay. Should the rest of your team/ coworkers label you as quitting on them because you weren’t able to perform? Also would you stay at the job and allow them to treat you this way?
I completely understood what Brandon was saying when he mentioned that 4 cameras were on him all the time....... its called emotional intelligence. You cant get there over night but you have to get to a place where you are less reactive and more responsive to situations. You have less than 6 seconds to play the scenario out in your head and respond accordingly.
Chad needed to be here for this conversation for sure. This was definitely a conversation for the old crew. It turned intona yelling match at one point with no one to mediate
Actually BM is right. Its all about your ultimate goal. Placing yourself in a position of power is important. AB doesn't care if he ever plays again so he acted in a way where it didn't matter but if he had more football/money goals then he should have handled it more maturely. Right now as far as football is concern his destiny is no longer in his hands. unless someone is willing to give him a chance he's not playing and if that decision is made he will have no negotiating power.
@@fb7881 in a way the decision is out of his hands but I think AB will be ok. When the truth of what happened came out that gave more cause for his reaction. The fault and unprofessionalism actually lied with TB coach. To have someone let go mid game is never right thing to do.
I support both shows but damn this was a missed opportunity. Fred, Chad, Channing should’ve been here for this one. Jared on the other hand is very solid, I like his insight, and how he listens to new perspectives.
The energy in this room was HIGH fs, respect to AB mans did what he had to do to make a point & at the end of the day TO EACH HIS OWN. We can say all we want to influence or provoke someone's thought although if someone is STANDING on how they move how THEY operate regardless...then all we can do is let them do what they do n see how it turns out fr.
He sees the show as him being the boss and his cohost being employees and that’s the problem. He thinks that he’s untouchable and always has to men the center of attention (big accusation)
Brandon is the A mic how yall can't see that smh He is the navigator just like Joe Budden in this podcast space someone has to control the flow of the convo...Now can he do a better job absolutely but it's literally his job
I totally respect AB! Important statement: Everyone will not have the same reaction, but it doesn't make it wrong. Majority are conditioned by corporations, media, etc. Good luck to him!
When AB said he did what anyone would’ve done at their job, I felt that. If my boss told me we never wanted you and to gtfo, I’m outta there. Stay healthy brodie, can’t wait to see you back in the league
This is the true meaning of PTSD (post traumatic slave disorder) I’m glad AB didn’t lose control and actually talked to these guys and help them to understand the meaning of a real king, a real stand up guy also glad Swaggy was there to help provide insight 💯 great content
17:16 I love this part of the conversation about having OGs. Having someone guide you that's in the business and experienced everything is actually pretty important
But you also need to be able to take the advice an take heed to it. AB literally listens to no one. He's a selfish player and that's why no one in the league will touch him
For any young people listening. AB understands BM's POV. There comes a point when you have to stand on your principles if that's what you say you're about and deal with the consequences
No. Ignorance is bliss, but eventually your eyes will open and you will see all the bridges you burned and how your self destruction also hurts others. Now if he REALLY didnt care about playing in the NFL again then his actions make sense. But because he keeps saying he wants to play his actions made zero sense.
I agreed. AB stood on HIS PRINCIPALS and Stood on them. We are in a generation where people would rather do what their told for a gain. Then stand on their morals. Another example, Dave Chappell was once asked to where a dress in a movie and he told them no, they kept asking trying to persuade him. But he stood on his moral. And then you Kevin hart who said he would never wear a dress and then you see him on SNL wearing a dress for personal gain. My point in sayinf that is regardless of what you wanna do and achieve in life if it makes you not feel good or less that that is your higher self speaking to you. Always trust your intuition that’s god the only person opinion that matter speaking to you.
@Curls Of Jordan everytime. People are too scared to be THEMSELVES. You’re 1/1. Your life is priceless. The very people telling you what to do is telling you to do something in their best interest. Regardless if you agree with AB or not. You have to respect any human standing on their principles and beliefs.
To be a good/great journalist is not just about getting your opinion out but it’s being able to listen to other people opinion while they explaining about the situation. Brandon has to learn to listen first then respond
@@TheWeeklyWithKiki technically he is though..Journalist and avocational podcasts follow basically the same principles as traditional community journalism. I’m not 💯% sure though.. Respectfully, Tripp😎
That’s some robotic bullshit. His approach is conversational like actual players do when they offer a look behind the scenes. The standards are set by non athletic cowards and it needs to be broken and disrupted. If for instance white guys dislike it... we gotta say F em and let them dislike it. Most players are Black men and we need their perspective in this space that’s comfortable to them. White male spaces and formats usually aren’t and that’s why he has only explained himself on a couple of platforms that he trusts. Mainstream formats need to be shunned and disrupted for this new more organic style.
I’m sorry but what the heck does Swaggy P have to offer in a platform like this? Between Brandon talking over AB, scrambling through his loaded questions, it would’ve been nice to have Chad and Fred here. JO isn’t bad, he provides thoughts on a higher scale than everyone else, very refreshing. But having AB on here without the old crew is a huge mistake.
Channing and Fred are exactly where they need to be Brandon is terrible good for him for starting the platform but someone else needs to take it to higher heights.
there was something really endearing about season1 with how informal it was. now its a corporate product. everyone trying to out wisdom each other. AND they need to keep the core together every episode. all 4 of them. thats the essence of the show. theyre why we’re here.
B. Marshall is exactly what AB is talking about when it comes to OGs. Bro ruined the whole interview trying to get his point across. I would love to see the TALK TIME broken down.
You must be five years old with this mentality. Please don't have any kids if this is the way you think. Brandon is using his situation to try and help AB with his. That's the purpose of an OG, he would be just another sucka if he just ran with every excuse been using since he started getting into trouble. At some point people gotta stop babying this grown ass man and wipe their hands of him. He'll eventually self-destruct if he keeps on the same path.
@@K1ngHardaway Damn black man, why would you even want that for another black man?? Regardless of how you feel about the situation, which doesn't pay you a dime by the way. And I said what I said, how are you over talking the guest. Go back and look at the interview again, AB barley looked at BM even when responding to his direct question.
@@austinsmith9843 AB was cutting Brandon off a lot as well. I've seen interviews with AB the guy has an excuse for everything. His on the field antics aren't the only thing he needs to answer for. Also as a black man raising black kids I would never let them get away with half of the stuff AB gets away with. We have to hold our black people to a higher standard.
Great show! I disagree with telling someone how they should e handled a situation based on what you feel is acceptable. A successful interview is not trying to convince someone of what they should’ve done, rather than to get an understanding and let the person being interviewed express themselves. AB handled this well. B.Marsh keep growing as you continue on this journey. Salute. 🙏🏾
Man..if ever there was a convo where Fred, Channing and Ocho NEEDED to be there, it was this one.
Agreed! Waited TWO YEARS for AB to come on here and I am extremely disappointed. There was no direction and BM spoke on himself more than on AB 🤦🏾♀️
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT WOULDA BEEN EPIC! Swaggy is playing too much, and Jared is too cool. Channing woulda said what needed to get said! Fred woulda supported and Ocho woulda chilled AB out while they goin in.

@@chastityhunt6623 Absolute facts
Agreed! I would have loved to have their take on this convo with AB
This was a conversation for the original cast. No disrespect to the other host but the emotion of Brandon, Chad’s insight and intelligence, Fred’s wisdom, and Channing being Channing would have took this to new heights…felt empty.

@@IslamIslam-vj5fz what are you even talking about they did an interview already on the pivot. You really should do research before typing anything
@@rellantoine5184 Research? Your expectations are far too high for dummies with smartphones.
Nick made AB feel comfortable, I’m glad he was there .
He didn't say shit.
Brandon hasn't learned yet that you can't convince others of your point of view. Particularly with someone like AB it's best to just *listen* because the more you push him to explain his position the more he doubles down. I've saved so much time and energy with this new approach to people, particularly difficult people.
Empathy. Brandon needs to learn empathy.
B didn't try to convince AB that his way is the best way. I felt that he tried show AB a broader view of it. Doesn't say that AB handle it wrong, like he said it was the way he felt in his heart he would handle it. My personal opinion is that media listing him as the crazy person after the way he handle it. Im more on B's side. Take it to the press conference and let the org take the bad lights.
Good point. This interview was a fail. And partly because of the host not being observant, asking the right questions etc
@@dejesuswilson_ yes!
Brandon also was doubling Down on his opinion.. AB did the exact same thing with his opinion.. Crazy How It's, An AB problem lol. I see 2 Men that are cool with each other,But They just don't agree on some things...
Fred and Ocho really needed to be in this conversation. Their intelligence and wisdom is much much needed even Channing to hit AB upside the head an call him out on BS
Exactly they were stars for there team. No respect to B, he had some great years but he ain’t that guy and Channing needed to be there to say shit like “ But AB, you just had to stay at the Raider for 4days you would of got 11MIL??? You crazy dog” 😂😂😂 ps I can’t remember the actual amount but it was only 4days
big facts
Maybe someone need to call you out on your BS because you can’t take it when someone speak their mind and when someone stand up for them selves, if you’re clearly able to look in the mirror and not see any flaws with yourself then your statement is good
Honestly its probably why chad and fred werent on. They woulda held ab to account for his shit
I agree with you. yet, AB would probably walk off because i dont think he would be able to sit and just listen/take in their wisdom, blessings. Notice the Pivot wasnt given "Flowers" but other podcast were. Hmmmm....
this interview is the prime example of why pivot was created. all the problems we had with the previous season is still here. Brandon doesn't let anyone get their stuff off but can't answer a yes or no direct question in less than 3 sentences.
Negative

This brothas far from crazy. More like a gifted human on many levels. It’s only crazy when it’s not basic or you don’t understand it.
Ugh, please don’t praise him. He has terrible judgment. If you don’t understand that, you are far from intelligent. He also listens to talk, he does not really entertain differing viewpoints. That’s worth doing in a multitude of scenarios.

@@19GENESE13 🤷🏾♂️
AB is a grown ass man. He articulated exactly what he meant. He wasn’t willing to compromise his mental health to comply with a coach who had bottled up animosity towards him & then disrespected him. Fred couldn’t have changed AB’s perspective.
Facts!!!
He said "I got mental wealth. You wanna know why? Because I don't let what people say affect who I am." Sheesh. Put some respect on this man!
He's not being authentic when he says that. He ran off the field because the way he was being treated that day made him feel worthless. He was literally running away from the feeling. He's very affected by others opinions of him. Not to mention it was compounded by a year of feeling unwanted by everyone on the team. If you listen carefully to him you will see the cracks in his ego. AB feels a lot...his problem is he can't own those feelings so he runs away instead.
Hes a manipulator that I see has captivated some with his clownery
@@lisabrightly you clearly didn’t listen lol. He clearly stated it was a build up of things throughout the whole year
@@lisabrightly How did he run away? He was cut from the team during a game. If you get fired from your job while you’re on the clock are you going to leave or are you going to finish your shift and then leave?

Muhammed Ali once said "The price of freedom is high" what he was referring to was the act or acts of expressing your integrity in ways that free you to be who you are, will sometimes cost you. And that cost will be huge. AB chose to express himself as opposed to be silent or compromising his pride. He was willing to pay the high price of expressing his freedom therefore he went to the next level instead of acquiescing to others behavior. Of course, he was emotional in the moment but he seems to be willing to pay the high price of being free to express himself freely. Bravo
Man I wish the original cast was there for this one. Especially Chad & Channing, they woulda kept it so real with AB.
Man he always making bout him that’s y they left
I needed Chad , Channing , & Fred for this . It should’ve definitely been in Miami so AB could be a little more comfortable. He appeared to be guarded .
it didnt help that B Marsh kept getting into his space and then when AB would make a statement, his body posture would lean forward into his space, almost challenging him. He just isnt the guy for this.
@@FromTheHipp Facto

This conversation needed Chad Johnson, Channing & Fred insight! Felt like so much was left out.
big facts
It didn’t feel like it ALMOST ALL OF IT WAS LEFT OUT . They didn’t contradict him once !
Didn’t compare his version of events with other people just took all he said as gospel 🤣🤣🤣. They were even scared to ask him about Brady and how he did him dirty …
Exactly! Chad & Channing wouldn’t bit their tongue at all. AB was talking in circles saying a lot & never really said a word. Low key waste if a interview without the original crew.
Lol I don’t even know why swaggy P was in this interview. He was in there kissing ABs ass like a groupie
Love Jared’s input in all these conversations! He well spoken and puts thought into his questions. He even got AB to shut up and listen while he was talking!
Definitely needed Fred and Channing for that conversation.

It was very telling during the whole "Giving Flowers" discussion how Brandon shouted out Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson's pod, NORE'S pod, but not his day 1 dudes that helped him grow this platform, Fred and Channing and what they are doing with Ryan Clark on the Pivot.
He’s went the financial route. I just don’t understand how you can make millions upon millions playing and still be so money hungry. Barnes is a straight clown per Kwame Brown.

Big fan of B Marshall and the show. I've noticed he always talks about having a real conversation and being honest but he can't handle it unless its on his terms.

He’s a total narcissist! He makes everything about him. Why even have guest cohosts at this point? We learned absolutely nothing new from this sham of an interview….because Brandon couldn’t take the focus off him.
@@AprilLashon yes and I was excited to hear ABs story. But this interview I just learned how B Marshall felt about ABs situation. This interview was a Total fail!
True and he even try to make look like he had shit to do about how AB became great and impose himself as his OG hahaha!!!
And he even made OBJ hahaha
He trying too hard to look educated and part of corporate america smfh
Exactly tho
I can truly respect AB. He’s choosing his worth over money and disrespect and people don’t realize everything ain’t always about money especially when that means you have to belittle yourself for it.
All I’ve ever seen was this dude disrespect other people, then play the victim. His last podcast with Bob Menery was all about his money in his “prove it” contract. I have yet to see a hint of sincerity out of AB.
What he said towards the end made perfect sense and honestly put everything in perspective about his decision. All he did was walk off a job like a normal employee, his job just has tons of media coverage. I've walked off jobs before when i no longer felt appreciated or respected. So to that point, i respect it

A.B. needed that channing ice breaker joke
Ryan Clark can’t fw him no more tho but it would be dope bmarsh is ass
Channing was entertaining when he was on here but that shid is dead cuz they let the genie out the bottle and made the landscape open to better personalities.
And even trying to watch poor Jared try to step in and add some depth to the conversation was painful to watch. Not even sure why they keep asking him back because Brandon doesn’t allow him to shine. I think Jared is very wise. He was trying to reel in the conversation but he played his position.
AB probably said he wouldn't do it if Channing and Ocho was there. AB is a fool but he isn't stupid. He is not trying to be held accountable. He knows Channing would've took his butt to task
@@asundelgun3487 I think he would have did it. Alpha males don't bow down or run from anyone.

Brandon this was probably the most highly anticipated interview to date. You should have let AB speak more. His perspective is his truth. We know how you would have reacted. It would have been more impactful to see you give flowers
It's impossible for Brandon to allow anyone to speak more than he does. He can't help himself.
AB already did a podcast and they just let him run the show without tuff questions. It was kind of stupid and pointless. So of course this podcast was meant to be more of a teaching moment, Not to just let AB continue to ramble on about his mindset
He can’t help it bc it’s always about him 🤦🏽♀️ clueless at all times
What insightful info did AB really have to say?
In both podcast interviews he’s done since the incident he’s either been defensive or not interested in directly addressing anything, a lot of deflection from the point at hand
In this one it looked like he didn’t want to speak at all
How do you come on a podcast and look like your being forced to speak, questions asked with 1 word answers knowing they want you to expand.
Yes.. when Brandon get on his soap box and start talking about his career or or his stint at McClain hospital...... everyone get out if his way...it's Oscar time! Not being insensitive...he need to learn timing....
Great interview! AB is unique. When you from Florida you stand out. He shared his side. Bucs coach said his side. Fans of the sport are gonna have there opinions. But AB said it best. “Anyone at a job where the boss says to you get the fuck out of here, that’s what I did!” Professionalism out the door! I felt that, gotta respect it. When you at a job and you don’t feel appreciated how do you act??
Professionalism should always be there because you have to worry about future employers especially when it’s on film. Made himself look unstable when he already has a history that goes back to college. Imagine a job that’s thinking about hiring you having video of taking of your shirt, knocking over your desk, kicking over the water cooler on your way out of your last job. They probably won’t hire you.
It depends on how much your outcome will harm you long term. That's ABs point.

AB needs to go on Pivot. This conversation will take on different energy. Have him sit with Jared and have to think and not just yell.
I think he’s scared to do that. Fred Taylor and Ryan Clark will hold him to a different standard.
Exactly my thoughts they let him slide on the “situations” that led to the tension and swaggy is wild he yes maned AB down the whole episode like a fan no opinion just happy to be there
And swaggy is one of them cats that AB will gravitate to because he's not gone challenge AB if he thinks he wrong. Swaggy is the yes guy. Lol

@@Itsloco314 we don’t know if Ryan failed him he used to plan his kids birthday. Two sides Ryan said he switched up when the money and fame came. AB probably feel like something else
Fred , Channing and 85 is needed in this episode especially since AB and Chad trained and know each other off the field
you got me with that 85 lol i thought you meant 85 South Show.
@@iAmAdriy that'd be dope though
I love how Brandon couldn’t control this interview.. if Fred, Chad, and Channing was there I believe they would’ve been able to All control the interview.. and got down to some serious issues that could truly be exposed in the NFL by AB..
Lmao when I first saw this podcast with that Justin Jefferson episode, I initially thought it was Ocho's show. Brandon don't know jack shyt about having a "show", yet he is obviously dreaming about going mainstream/network, the reason he features racist ass Nascar... All he do is talk about himself, and share his shallow views as if it is a fact. Best thing he ever did was to have Ocho, Fred and Channing, now he done fucked up lol
Bc he is a people pleaser. He tries to be an og when in reality he is not a leader, he is a leach. Anyone can see this
Nobody can replace Fred I miss him 😌
Do u miss Me ? The fuck
Me2
Me three
Check their podcast out “Pivot”
Just go watch The Pivot lol. Last episode was hilarious
The 1st interview to show ABs personality and perspective. He ain't crazy, playing hurt is.
He's always the victim. Handle it like a pro not a damn fool.
@@reggiehil so compromise your own integrity and being true to yourself to accommodate someone else’s perspective of you?
@@Dreflow18 handling a situation like a professional and not throw a childish tantrum should be the bare minimum. All he needed to do was contact the players union and his lawyers. That's not compromising anything.

Absolutely let Jared talk.
I wanna know what he know. U can just look at him and tell he’s a book of knowledge
@@simitometi6219 lol, he tried to get B.Marsh seat, Brandon took it back cause he started feeling like he was being interviewed 😂😂
Naw he a lil too poetic justice neil degrasse
Fred a real og baller
The more I hear talking AB, the more I realize he has a vast and better understanding on emotional intelligence, mental health and character than the majority of us. People want to judge him, but I want to see those people to stay cool and not to react in the same situation that AB faced. Like AB said, everybody has different way of reaction and nobody is going to agree with that reaction as the pure definition of reaction is to be in that moment. You are one of the greatest AB, please keep playing football and keep sharing all that magic in your receptions!!!
Are you kidding dude, this is why he is who he is. Because people like you
Seeing AB own BMarsh about compromising his integrity and the “disruptive” point. 👏 👏
Facts!!!! That is the ultimate measure of control.
Big facts
Jared Odrick should’ve been the host. Brandon has to become a better listener. Tons of pivotal moments he missed because he wanted to be right instead of listen to what AB was saying. Thank you AB for bringing the world into your mental space. I hope all athletes are tuned in. This is needed.
Hell na
His massive overinflated ego won’t allow it. He should just interview himself from now on.
Straight up. The dude is constantly interrupting people when they’re trying to talk, he isn’t even listening to what’s being said because he’s always trying to get his argument off. We want to listen to what people have to say without someone tryna talk over them every 5 seconds
Do y’all have y’all own show……….. I guess not let him do wat he want it’s his show if he missed something cool u live and u learn
Agree almost turned it off cause he doesn’t even allow ab to speak another big reason I like what Fred an them are doin on the pivot
This needed the OG’s Chad for the bond he got with AB, Fred for the wisdom, Channing for his insight understanding and JO also bc the way he carries a convo
I really like Jared on the show! He's very humble and laid-back and offers a lot of new experience and perspective!
He goes deep
He’s more mature than them. They be clowning on him everytime he talks
@@Doofyy11 Jared can have his own show!
I hate how nick young was clowning him after he dropped some knowledge. Nick was just d riding AB the whole time
He needs to be on with the other crew as well
I like the authenticity of this conversation. Personally, the conversation I would pay to see is AB and Ryan Clark.
AB don’t fw him
I think Ryan Clark lowkey has something against AB
Fight night?
@@reeldeal2149 def does lmao. That shit comes off as personal
@@reeldeal2149 why do you say that?
All the respect in the world to Brandon for starting up this platform and all his other endeavors but sometimes he needs to be able to properly assess when he isn't the focus. People tuned in to get AB's insight on how things transpired, not how B Marsh would have handled things and all that other ish he was talking about.
I understand that but B Marshall was trying to impart some knowledge onto AB so that he doesn’t waste the twilight of his physical prime being out the league
@@KDubb-ws9zc B Marshall during the height of his career was just as erratic as this brother and although it's no fault of his own as football is a team game, AB has reached heights in the league that Brandon unfortunately didn't get a chance to achieve during his career. I'm not saying it's right, but it's hard to listen to someone who didn't achieve all of the individual and team success that you had.
AB broke it down tremendously. He disregarded the 30 Mil because he wanted to be a champion and play on a contender. That's a move that B Marsh probably wouldn't necessarily make because he has chased the bag throughout his entire career and to this day, is still chasing the bag.
I’m gonna be honest we needed this. It’s too many interviews of AB where he steers the conversation. I get we love him but when you wrong, you wrong.
There's already a full hour and a half podcast of AB telling his side. He does a horrible job of playing victim so it would be pointless to do another podcast with his insight.
@@mikerhem1273 Thank you
When Ab said "You willing to play a game and I'm playing life" I felt that 💯
"I just did what a normal person at work would do." Speaks volume.🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
They don’t wanna hear that tho . Just cause he in the nfl they expect him to act a certain way … a job is a job at the end of the day 😂 I would’ve walked out too gmfu
@@trollingfacts3382 I would've showed the team they needed me, but errybody different. I think that's the point AB was trynna make. Nobody's situation or reaction to a situation is gonna be identical.
Facts! He should've mentioned the girl at walmart who went viral for quitting on the loud speaker! Everyone praised her..
AB made great points while Brandon wasn't listening and kept trying to get his point about himself and his career across... Would've loved to see the original cast have this interview.
I agree
I agree! Swaggy P cool and all but somebody else should of been in his place
Let's go Brandon!
Damn, you just made me not wanna watch it. Brandon gotta stop that .🤦🏿♂️
Doubt it would happen with the old crew Fred too real and Channing would get fed up with the conversation. I doubt Ryan could even do it because AB would be trying to run a fade from past remarks. The Brandon take is common which made this unwatchable because it's " I did this, I did that" and he had a great career but is it HOF
Perfect timing for “if you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything” bruh not letting football be the only thing that define him.
B Marsh just gotta give this platform to let the guests speak. He be competing with everybody to talk!
That just his personality and how he is
As a host, you never allow anyone to “take over” your show. He has to have a voice as well.
I really don’t see the big deal 🤷🏾♂️I just see 2 people having convo they want b marsh to not say nothing at all 😂
Facts. 🤷🏽♂️😃
@@NickiesNiche you sound dumb he does this every show. For those of us who actually watch this I’m sure we’d all appreciate it if he’d let the guest speak
Love for AB. Not everyone has his courage, bravery and conviction to go against the machine.
He's a broke bum
I love that AB said 'No, I have mental WEALTH.'
Jared Is the most rational in any of these episodes he probably gets so frustrated when Brandon cuts him off
Jared was the best part of this episode. Why was nick even there?
Bro thank you! Jared was pulling things out of AB like ABs uncle being religous. We coulda got that whole conversation but then he would get cut off by Brandon.
@dezfmtx Nick was there to fill the seat.
@@Dreamgirl__1 lol he was all congested. Just sat there and twirled his hair.
Yes because BM always cuts him off. It’s a point in this episode we’re you can see Jared’s frustration but he just exhales.
Brandon dropped the ball. He needed to stop talking over AB, and stop trying to push his agenda in his attempt to “teach” AB. IAMATHLETE misses the original cast and it’s glaring in an episode like this.
Right he can teach him something behind the scenes. He dont know how to listen.
I felt like AB kept talking over him
B marsh let AB talk every time, it AB that kept talking over him not letting him finish his point, then he gets mad n don’t wanna answer questions like some shit a kid would do, like are we watching the same interview???
Yeah AB definitely was on some disrespectful isht! But that's how young n-words act towards the OGs as a whole in life! They don't like to listen they just wanna be heard!
Antonio never let B finish his point, Brandon was trying to be respectful of the dude. He wasn't trying to hear anything.
Talk that talk AB! I’m half way thru this and you letting Brandon Marshall have it!!! “You can’t lil boy me”!
I was expecting more from this episode. Wish channing, Fred and ocho would've been there.
Dood came 3hours late, probably defused the energy
When AB said “What OGs? Ain’t no OGs here. You ain’t my OG!” I knew it was over.😂🤣 Brandon, you tried….

@@abdullateef2997 this was so entertaining but not in BM’s favor. 😂
I think they underestimate how much of the show's success was based on the cast that they had. Channing, Chad and Fred are not only very entertaining. But they also come at things from all kinds of (sometimes hilarious or ludicrous) perspectives and with a dose of raw honesty balanced with intelligence and humor. This would have been an entirely different conversation with that cast of people. Missed opportunity imo.
exactly he would’ve got throughly checked an he wouldn’t have been able to talk to Brandon that way frfr
I agree, 4 different personalities to give 4 different aspects. Not really impressed with show now. I really enjoying pivot.
Why did they split up?
I totally agree
A lot of people dont get it. AB walking away from the Football field in "that manner" did cost him some opportunities. But what ya'll dont realize is it also opened a lot of opportunities.
This is what AB is saying. Throughout his career, everyone was telling him to change who he is, and whatever. But his decisions led to Tom Brady personally wanting to team up with him to win the SB. You guys are programmed to think a certain way, but nothing in life is promised. Imagine if he did what everyone else wanted him to do and never got the results that he got after. He's turning into a pop culture icon. I dont even watch football like that, but I pay attention to AB's moves because he's ona different kind of timing. I dont gotta overexplain what I'm saying, if ykyk
This was PERFECT example of how 2 great NFL players view their situations post career. B Marsh won't say it but he realized he was played by the system even though he thought he was going out his "own way" no... You went the way the system planned it to for a player who acts outta character. AB TRULY went out his way and still has access to play and will be done when HE WANTS not when the league says and only some people will realize that's the true peace of mind, being done in YOUR TERMS. Being great has its benefits and they both worked hard for where they are! Great pod!
AB can still give u 1000yards n 10+TDs b marsh slowed down b4 ab and he was hot early in his career AB started actin up when he was arguebly the best WR in the league
Not familiar with Brandon's career in the league. Was he a problem person?
This interview completely changed everything I thought about ab and how he handled the last couple years. Much respect to ab. Dudes a beast and I get where he’s coming from. Love is love brother….Bmarsh let that man talk lol
Brandon is a supplement to the show. He isn’t controlled enough to be a main host.

@@EDWARDTHEEAUTHOR Says who? The system got you thinking things should always go how they want it. As long as you can't make your own decisions and your actions is controlled by someone else, you're enslaved.
Roman's 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles (MOST modern day Europeans/Caucasians/ etc) be come in.
Part of the blindness is that we would not know who the true Father of Jacob(Israel) was and that we would worship false gods of [wood and stone] partially referring to worship of the cross(wood) and the “idol” of christianity the “jesus” that hangs on the cross tends to be made of (stone). Worship not literally meaning to bow down and speaking in gibberish nonsense tongue waving hands up and down, but rather worshiping meaning “To Submit To/Obey”. The speaking in tongue that some Christians do is nonsense, speaking in tongue only refers to the ability of being able to speak in a language or many languages to spread your message across multiple nations. Smh
Deuteronomy 28:36 TMH shall bring thee, and thy king which thou shalt set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known; and there shalt thou serve other gods, wood and stone.
Deuteronomy 28:64
And TMH shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.
Just as important as "what's his name," is "what is not his name."
However, it is 100% certain that his name was not Esus Crios aka “Jesus Christ”, the idol of the Celtics who the Catholics sing at Easter in the Vatican, aka what all surface level “Holy Bible” readers (Commonly identifies as “Christians”) refer to the Anointed One as.
We have been tricked, deceived as a result of the curses of the law (Deut 28-64)...wake up and stop following the lies of the Gentiles that govern this world. True Israel is awakening.
I am no historian but I love researching and proving all truth. It was the so-called "Holy" Roman Catholic Church that banned us from reading certain books. Do not trust the Adversary's agents of deceit and destruction. The Catholic Church is not a good moral compass. Catholic meaning Universal.
They literally crusaded all over the world, had TMH’s people murdered, burned women alive, and made laws against poor people (peasants) from having translated Bibles and books of education in the past.
Who are they to condemn a book for any of us to read? They are certainly in no position to order us and they are most certainly NOT our Creator nor the Savior.
Do not trust those who come in sheep's clothing but are rather ravaging wolves. It has been told of us to be as harmless as doves AND as wise as serpents. For one to be wise, You must research and READ, and educate yourself, AND prove ALL TRUTH. The only one to lead you is The Most High. Pray for insight but don't trust when LIARS tell you NOT to read something but approve of what you “Should”!
It is good that we pray for you, and I do hope you pray for me as well. However, the decision is ours as to whether or not we fully submit to his will.
The Most High wants us to submit to his will through our own decisions. That is why the Messiah says if any man comes to me, let him deny HIMSELF. That is why the word also says to be transformed by the renewing of OUR minds. That’s why it says every man will have to give an account for what he hath done.
It is personal accountability and the sooner we accept this, the closer we will become to actually making the decisions that will make us submit fully to his will
And for those of you who deny the existence of The Most High or don’t take the ancient scriptures seriously, you need to seriously wake up. Biblical prophecy is literally unfolding right before our eyes. This is not a game.
A few notable mentions (Women wearing makeup need to repent and change (Read the testament of reuben) no debate, people who smoke weed (sorcery) need to repent and change no debate, people who eat upon the flesh of animals aka consumption of death… need to repent and change (one of the huge flaws of the Holy Bible), no debate. Read the Essene Humane Gospel of “Jesus Christ” and the Essene Humane Gospel of Peace, and also the Teaching of the Essenes that go hand in hand with them. These are books that came from the Dead Sea Scrolls, written by ancient israelites however translated by men even around these times.) Read Daniel 12 to understand further why books held in the Vatican are slowly being released now in these end times. Everything is going according to prophecy, even they have to move accordingly. This is indeed a narrow path only for those who truly wish to be saved on the day of Judgment. Go and sin no more and put in work for the kingdom. All Praises To The Most High!

I think this interview could have gone better if Brandon would just let AB talk, explain what happened, what was his mindset at the time and why he did what he did. Give him all the room to express himself instead of trying so hard to tell him how Brandon would have handled it or how it could have been handled differently. Maybe near the end ask him if it played out the way he wanted and if not, what will he be doing moving forward. Then maybe discussion the corporate game and strategy vs the players and various ways to mesh the two together for a win win of knowing when to end it. Coming off the top trying to tell him another way to handle it is not working.
Shit do he let anyone talk
AB cutting off everyone wym 😂 he just keep saying being in control of your emotions is for his mental health. His mindset is one that is going to burn bridges everywhere he goes, and make people not wanna work with him and he saying Bmarsh tripping for not making a scene every time he gets upset. Every player is their own brand, and people think the AB brand is a crazy and childish player who was a gifted athlete.
He always thinks He has the best opinion.
Brandon has never been a good interviewer... Fred taylor Chad and the other light skinned carry the show
Nothing wrong about taking time to tell other about self care and Mental health but wait for the right opportunity to do do. Stop cutting people off.
AB is one of a kind man 😭😭👏🏿👏🏿
Yup that shows his ass in public areas and online posting Tom Brady wife or soon to be ex along with scam cases up to today no changes or accountability you say man I say a NIGGGA who got money based on his physical body and skill sad his son grows up with this
Brandon is a control freak number one! Number two, he has the opportunity to allow AB to explain to the world what happened and why he did what he did. But he won't let him without giving how he would have reacted. Its not about you homie! To have that same Coach recently get fined $50k for slapping a player gives sooo much context to AB's story, but you're to focused on trying to be an OG rather than allow more light onto the situation. Give AB the floor, not spend argumentative time in an attempt to correct the man that doesn't need correcting. I love what he's saying! Too many of us black men are afraid to express ourselves when we're being wronged because we're worried about others reactions. "Controlled," as AB stated. I love that! 'F' being controlled! All Brandon needed to say was, "You know what, as a man, you got the right to show your discuss in any situation however you deem it necessary!" He didn't kill nobody or harm anyone when he did what he did. He already knows people are going to judge him. Fuck it! Man don't want me here, I'll excuse myself out the door. He told him during the game. Who has control? Brandon, the Coach should have been the one to maintain his composure. Based off recent events, it's obvious he can't do it himself. Finally, number three, AB alright with me!
I agree with what you’ve said here.
AB is right. You don’t have to hold back your emotional reactions to be corporate, civil or obedient. But those reactions can also have consequences. Everyone has decisions to make on all sides.
Well said.

@@breonmitchell2443 you have a point but look at these white players and compare them to the level of the black players and u will see why one is talked about more. The UFC is filled with assaulters and murders but ESPN dosent even talk about the UFC in general. A couple channels talked about Krisnaps but AB was on his way to being the GOAT and garners a different level of attention. This is like the 20th time he’s acted out. Difference between showing emotion and acting like a 5 year old. Cussing on TV being mad that you played bad= showing emotion. AB committing assault and burglary and faces 25 years+ in Prison = just being a shxt person
AB is wrong
It can only have consequences if you care.
When I initially saw the teaser last week, a part of me wasn't exactly sure if I thought Brandon could maximize this moment the way the original crew could, collectively. You know? Those four men together, brought so much invaluable wisdom, perspective, and raw insight to bear from their own individual human experiences...in an unprecedented way, and I was so proud. I'm still proud. But there was some depth missing in this interview. Depth that Channing and Fred would have brought for sure, as many of you have already mentioned. Brandon - shout out to you for the level you were trying to reach in terms of substance for your conversation with AB. It was just leaning a bit too much towards your position(s) and vantage point, versus AB's...which is what I think more time could have been devoted to. As far as AB, I'm torn. We absolutely need to strive to be true to ourselves because as AB said - we have to look ourselves in the mirror at the end of the day. At the same time - there's something to be said about the decision we arrive at, in terms of how we choose to handle something. And the greater the moment, the more consideration that 'how' element deserves. That's just my opinion. Either way, each of us have to do us.
Fuck the NFL
If AB crazy like the media portray him to be, then I question the sanity of the media because this man speaks from a knowledgeable perspective.
"LEGACY IS WHAT YOU LEAVE BEHIND AND HOW THAT MAKES YOU FEEL" Truth beautifully spoken from his higher self.
Ppl re-write & white wash history all the time. He should write a book to prevent that. The NFL commentators control the narrative until then.

Grateful to hear this young man's response and conversation from his unadulterated POV, much respect to AB
AB is half and half he’s right then he’s also wrong because he has a history of having conflicts with coaches and some players and should’ve known this is his last chance in the NFL unless a team calls his jack besides that B Marshall has made several good points in this interview i understand every statement he made because like he said no matter what happens a player has a guaranteed contract to abide by and keep their integrity so they can get paid by the end of the year but on top of that AB made a viable point that if a player voiced their feelings about their own physical well being and the coach don’t like it and thinking your making excuses after you already shown texts and X-rays that an injury is building up in your ankle and your knees and then tell you you’re done get tf out of here then therefore the coach is wrong for not showing no consideration and he can’t talk to players like that.
Coldest shit AB said is “I don’t let what people SAY effect who I am” 40:15 when you don’t gaf the universe gonna have your back even when people don’t, sum real spiritual shit most CANT even comprehend💯 much respect for AB his mindset and heart is in the right place despite what outsiders believe or think I can clearly see that

Jared was able to articulate what AB was trying to say to people who don’t fully understand like B Marsh. This is AB’s way of telling his side of the story. He’s a trailblazer if you really pay attention. I low key feel like B Marsh felt some type of way that Swaggy P agreed with AB about how he would’ve handled this situation lol. But I say all that to say people love calling other people crazy when they go against the status quo. Football is not the end all be all for everyone. That’s what society has to learn. Just because a profession earns you millions doesn’t mean it should own you as a person. AB said sorry I’m a famous person that did what a regular person Would have done at a regular job. Leave after being disrespected knowing I’m putting my health on the line for you. Knowing y’all didn’t even want me in the first place. He has millions so money doesn’t control him. That’s what y’all need to understand. At some point you have to put yourself first. It wasn’t the most professional but the coach wasn’t professional either. I don’t know not one person on earth who hasn’t lost their cool. And if you worried about the Hall of Fame like most nfl players are that’s understandable but like AB said do you remember who won the Super Bowl in 78? Exactly. The real legacy is making sure your love ones are okay. There’s always a new venture out there to earn more money. I don’t have to sacrifice my manhood or my true self.

I completely understood what Brandon was saying when he mentioned that 4 cameras were on him all the time....... its called emotional intelligence. You cant get there over night but you have to get to a place where you are less reactive and more responsive to situations. You have less than 6 seconds to play the scenario out in your head and respond accordingly.
Jared was lowkey the MVP of this episode. His ability to see both sides kept AB & Brandon from totally losing the points being made
Chad needed to be here for this conversation for sure. This was definitely a conversation for the old crew. It turned intona yelling match at one point with no one to mediate
Not always true, have you heard about reflexes?‽? But I get the point
Brandon just missing the underlying conversation of integrity that AB is having with me.
Exactly! Brandon is always waiting to talk and not listening.

Actually BM is right. Its all about your ultimate goal. Placing yourself in a position of power is important. AB doesn't care if he ever plays again so he acted in a way where it didn't matter but if he had more football/money goals then he should have handled it more maturely. Right now as far as football is concern his destiny is no longer in his hands. unless someone is willing to give him a chance he's not playing and if that decision is made he will have no negotiating power.
Bro I felt like this was a Kodak interview 😆
@@fb7881 in a way the decision is out of his hands but I think AB will be ok. When the truth of what happened came out that gave more cause for his reaction. The fault and unprofessionalism actually lied with TB coach. To have someone let go mid game is never right thing to do.
I support both shows but damn this was a missed opportunity. Fred, Chad, Channing should’ve been here for this one. Jared on the other hand is very solid, I like his insight, and how he listens to new perspectives.
Support The Pivot Podcast and IAA 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Wow Brandon had the opportunity to shout out The Pivot…
Just not the nascar episodes lol
I am athlete come first fam
Facts
Both enough room for both
@@MrCantrell14 not when I’m trying to support The Pivot which is something Brandon should be doing…js
The energy in this room was HIGH fs, respect to AB mans did what he had to do to make a point & at the end of the day TO EACH HIS OWN. We can say all we want to influence or provoke someone's thought although if someone is STANDING on how they move how THEY operate regardless...then all we can do is let them do what they do n see how it turns out fr.
Brandon gotta learn he doesn’t have to be the one to control the conversation
He sees the show as him being the boss and his cohost being employees and that’s the problem. He thinks that he’s untouchable and always has to men the center of attention (big accusation)
I think that’s literally his role
I see a little Joe Budden in him
Brandon is the A mic how yall can't see that smh He is the navigator just like Joe Budden in this podcast space someone has to control the flow of the convo...Now can he do a better job absolutely but it's literally his job
He’s learning when toLet it Flow and when to be in Control 💯
Salute to AB, he controlled this whole interview 😂😂😂🤙🏾
I totally respect AB! Important statement: Everyone will not have the same reaction, but it doesn't make it wrong. Majority are conditioned by corporations, media, etc. Good luck to him!
When he sitting at home broke it’s gone matter greatly then I promise you
He, AB is missing the memo!
@@Controversypodcast weak ass dude speaking on another man pockets. yuck
@@Controversypodcast how can u be broke sittin at home… 😂 nigga got more money then God
@@Controversypodcast you really think he’ll end up broke? Really?
"I did what anyone would in a workplace if they were told to get the fuck out." - AB
Dam kinda hard to argue that. Goodspeed AB
@Sng1 right, I thought it was beautiful! Tampa you played yourself lol
@@ms.carpenter7793 actually ab played himself lol
@@jam3152 I don’t agree…I feel he knows his talents and is too valuable to be mistreated. They should have respected him in the beginning.
Deadass that was me on my very first job😂😂😂😂
Right. Many of us would love to walk off our jobs but we can’t afford to.
When AB said he did what anyone would’ve done at their job, I felt that. If my boss told me we never wanted you and to gtfo, I’m outta there. Stay healthy brodie, can’t wait to see you back in the league
AB made the same exact excuse when he left Pittsburgh. He claimed Tomlin wanted to force him to play injured
@@thadifferenc33 ok thats not an excuse lol tf have you ever played an nfl game hurt??
@@theoo149 it shows you that he's lying. What are the chances that 2 different NFL coaches would tell him to play while hurt? Be serious here.
This is the true meaning of PTSD (post traumatic slave disorder) I’m glad AB didn’t lose control and actually talked to these guys and help them to understand the meaning of a real king, a real stand up guy also glad Swaggy was there to help provide insight 💯 great content
King clown
Think he lost control in the pool 😂📸
17:16 I love this part of the conversation about having OGs. Having someone guide you that's in the business and experienced everything is actually pretty important
But you also need to be able to take the advice an take heed to it. AB literally listens to no one. He's a selfish player and that's why no one in the league will touch him
For any young people listening. AB understands BM's POV. There comes a point when you have to stand on your principles if that's what you say you're about and deal with the consequences
No. Ignorance is bliss, but eventually your eyes will open and you will see all the bridges you burned and how your self destruction also hurts others. Now if he REALLY didnt care about playing in the NFL again then his actions make sense. But because he keeps saying he wants to play his actions made zero sense.
I agreed. AB stood on HIS PRINCIPALS and Stood on them. We are in a generation where people would rather do what their told for a gain. Then stand on their morals. Another example, Dave Chappell was once asked to where a dress in a movie and he told them no, they kept asking trying to persuade him. But he stood on his moral. And then you Kevin hart who said he would never wear a dress and then you see him on SNL wearing a dress for personal gain. My point in sayinf that is regardless of what you wanna do and achieve in life if it makes you not feel good or less that that is your higher self speaking to you. Always trust your intuition that’s god the only person opinion that matter speaking to you.
@Curls Of Jordan everytime. People are too scared to be THEMSELVES. You’re 1/1. Your life is priceless. The very people telling you what to do is telling you to do something in their best interest. Regardless if you agree with AB or not. You have to respect any human standing on their principles and beliefs.
To be a good/great journalist is not just about getting your opinion out but it’s being able to listen to other people opinion while they explaining about the situation. Brandon has to learn to listen first then respond
Facts
@@TheWeeklyWithKiki technically he is though..Journalist and avocational podcasts follow basically the same principles as traditional community journalism.
I’m not 💯% sure though..
Respectfully, Tripp😎
That’s some robotic bullshit. His approach is conversational like actual players do when they offer a look behind the scenes. The standards are set by non athletic cowards and it needs to be broken and disrupted. If for instance white guys dislike it... we gotta say F em and let them dislike it. Most players are Black men and we need their perspective in this space that’s comfortable to them. White male spaces and formats usually aren’t and that’s why he has only explained himself on a couple of platforms that he trusts. Mainstream formats need to be shunned and disrupted for this new more organic style.
Only here for AB show isn't the same at all. AB I respect you bro
I’m sorry but what the heck does Swaggy P have to offer in a platform like this? Between Brandon talking over AB, scrambling through his loaded questions, it would’ve been nice to have Chad and Fred here. JO isn’t bad, he provides thoughts on a higher scale than everyone else, very refreshing. But having AB on here without the old crew is a huge mistake.
Channing and Fred are exactly where they need to be Brandon is terrible good for him for starting the platform but someone else needs to take it to higher heights.
there was something really endearing about season1 with how informal it was. now its a corporate product. everyone trying to out wisdom each other.
AND they need to keep the core together every episode. all 4 of them. thats the essence of the show. theyre why we’re here.
Channing and Fred started another show
B. Marshall is exactly what AB is talking about when it comes to OGs. Bro ruined the whole interview trying to get his point across. I would love to see the TALK TIME broken down.
Facts
You must be five years old with this mentality. Please don't have any kids if this is the way you think. Brandon is using his situation to try and help AB with his. That's the purpose of an OG, he would be just another sucka if he just ran with every excuse been using since he started getting into trouble. At some point people gotta stop babying this grown ass man and wipe their hands of him. He'll eventually self-destruct if he keeps on the same path.
@@K1ngHardaway Damn black man, why would you even want that for another black man?? Regardless of how you feel about the situation, which doesn't pay you a dime by the way. And I said what I said, how are you over talking the guest. Go back and look at the interview again, AB barley looked at BM even when responding to his direct question.
@@austinsmith9843 AB was cutting Brandon off a lot as well. I've seen interviews with AB the guy has an excuse for everything. His on the field antics aren't the only thing he needs to answer for. Also as a black man raising black kids I would never let them get away with half of the stuff AB gets away with. We have to hold our black people to a higher standard.
@@K1ngHardaway Preach!
Great show! I disagree with telling someone how they should e handled a situation based on what you feel is acceptable. A successful interview is not trying to convince someone of what they should’ve done, rather than to get an understanding and let the person being interviewed express themselves. AB handled this well. B.Marsh keep growing as you continue on this journey. Salute. 🙏🏾
