Ain’t nothing better than listening to this during work
Listening to at work while getting high
Both of y’all should be fired.
@@KataWolf89DOING THAT 💩 RN!!!!!
@@outofcontext3982or promoted 😂
Same
Taylor really uses twitter as a search engine?? LMAO.. Yea she deserves to get roasted by Andrew and Charla every week
Don’t sleep o Taylor she got some good comebacks too.
Twitter should be as easy to use everything as google
LMAO!!! Yeah, that's wild AF. Mann
This comment still relevant asf 😂
I could listen to Andrew, Charla and Alex speculate and come up with ideas for Marvel and DC movies for hours.
Charla not knowing that Batman is from DC Comics has ruined all his credibility on comic book movies for me, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about lol
@@pr0l0gue he said the dark knight wasn't part of the dcu not that batman isnt dc.
@@pr0l0gue your lack of comprehension is confusing
@@justingomez7987 He’s made this stance before and said he’s explicitly against the DC Comics brand, bringing up DC Universe specifically was a last minute goalpost pivot to avoid looking silly. He’s slippery like that but I know the tactics lol
@@xTPTxDraMaTiXz Average water breather response
The execution of that George Strait joke is top 10 brilliant idiots joke of all time😂😂😂
+1
I've never gotten dizzy out of laughing before
Word has it that 30% of CTG's ex's live in Texas
@@cuchiecrook1985I can't believe yall really found that funny. For 1, it was super obvious what he was setting up if you heard him all week long.
But either way it's cringey AF. IJS
Perfect
I just love the combination of Charla and Andrew. I wish I had best friends and we talked like this.
I’m tryna start a pod similar to this
Gayyyy!!!
they’re actually gay lovers
Me too
When Andrew Rapped Shoop ! Made me smile
Charla saying “ screaming” services brought me back to the let go and let SOULJAH episode
😂😂
hands down the absolute best episode of Brilliant Idiots 😂
I don't why this annoyed me. Oh well can't help it.
I already knew CTG was going to do his daily dose of Jay Z D riding
Word his favorite time to do it is 4:44
Them takin so long to get to George Strait was hilarious 😂😂😂
CTG is sooo funny.
Y'all were so behind the George joke; the second he said it I knew. Y'all being lost made it 10X'S BETTER 💀🤣
Wasn't even that funny.
And yeah, it was hella obvious. I don't know who's more cringe nowadays...Charlamagne or Sukianna. IJS
@@dc_amp8843Really?? WOW!!!
This episode was perfect for me, i literally have been super productive and had a week where i should of been stress free and ended up having one of the worst panic attacks ever
imma send u healing energy brother
I hope youre feeling better. Take some time for yourself and relax.
Grow up
God bless brudda 🙏🏾
Felt this my guy we keep moving tho
As someone who has anxiety and deals with the shallow breathing feeling that shultz talked about, i just want to say thank you. I deal with this feeling almost every day (even now as i type this) and this is the first time I’ve ever heard someone explain that feeling. Its a daily struggle for me and im very thankful to have clicked this podcast today
It's like standing neck deep in a pool.
I had the same thing, it got better when i stopped drinking coffee and tea with caffeine. Deep breathing and shoulder rolling helps.
Facts
I would have kicked Charla out the room for that George Straight joke LMFAO
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
When was that?
Not even funny...just cringey tbh. Somebody needs to tell him that 2 wrongs don't make a right. But Whatever.
Love how you talked about breathing and anxiety because last night I actually got an anxiety attack before going to bed. I was feeling so much pressure/numbness in my chest and trouble breathing. Crazy how you mentioned this after it happening to me after so many years. It will be better.
Ctgod will diminish LBJ in every sports conversation & casually end it with "idk why ppl think I hate Lebron"....
Listening to this after the 2022 unreleased Nelk pod with Schultz just dropped is like night and day, this is how you do it!!
Shulz talking bout not being able to breathe from the air quality and fires, but so out of the loop he just thinks it's anxiety lmfao
Jesus the difference in critical thinking between Andrew and CTG is miles. Andrew has this ability to analyze and synthesize information, while CTG is just regurgitating what he reads void of any critical thinking.
It's called intelligence
Charla leans into it for comedy relief
1:34:39 I feel you Andrew, I’m tire of him forcing his female rapper friend onto us. 😂😂😂
They really cleared up the Hollywood strike for me thanks for that lol
crazy these guys started the pod with talking about box breathing. just talked with my wife about it for her anxiety. keeep spreading the gospel of mental health young kings!
The entire Gearge Gay part had me dying 🤣 🤣🤣
Andrew rapping salt and pepper just Solidified his New York card
You could tell the way he grew up
Charla out here showing his age thinking the newer generations would ever buy cable lol 😅
Haven’t even listened yet but I already know I want no parts of Charla’s basketball takes
😂😂😂 the shoop breakdown was next level!
Charlamagne is such a shell of his former self hes just not an engaging media personality anymore....I feel bad for Andrew to have to keep this pod alive 😭😭
He matured. Nothing wrong with that. When I first started listening to TBC, I found his lunacy pretty entertaining. A decade later, I have a family. Now, I find value in more introspective and intelligent entertainment (sometimes). I appreciate people that grow up. I don't need controversy to be engaged anymore 😎
That scandal almost ruined him... ever since then he's been on his best behavior. More mental health & less criticism of others. Don't bother them and they won't bother you.
It is a such thing as just enjoying your friends company and making a podcast. If they both eating and enjoying each other then nothing else matters.
@@rodneycooperjr3223nigga bu still he went pc tho bro
@@trollin702 That's part of the maturity. He's not out here trying to be edgy all the time like he used to. Imagine a grown man "trying" to be controversial just for your attention. Old people that still clamour for controversy always look silly like... Skip Bayless 🤦🏾♂️
As soon as he said "Mexican" for the alien question I lost it cause its so fucking true 😂😂😂
Out of all the songs Shultz has claimed to know (both on Brilliant & on Flagrant)... Who would've thought "Shoop" would've been the one he knows 🤣
My favorite podcast. Mixing funny ass shit with intelligence. Thank you Brilliant Idiots ❤️
WAX! We Want Update guys..
He has his own podcast. Bully and the beast.
@@IllLogic1123he has that podcast for years and still appeared in brilliant idiots. Now he hasn't in a while
They not going to tell us anything but if I had to guess. It was cause of that girl he was with cause she a friend of the pod and wax was acting a fool
@dontaysmith9074 Carla? He was acting same on BI's and B&B podcasts so I can't agree with you brother
You'll never get it! Charla is strategic
I've never seen Andrew happier than when he sang Shoop hahaha
Schultz made me proud with the shoop 😂
its friday @ my 9-5. and I left a meeting and got a huge raise. Today is a cool day.
Blessings brother congrats
Andrew doing Shoop 😩😩 I am crying 😭😭😭😭
Andrew ate with that salt and pepper lol 😂
You guys are my spirit animal. So funny, I love watching.
charla pouring his water in a glass now 😂
Such a great episode! Thanks everyone 🙏🏻❤️
nas version of thugs mansions was a great example of story telling.
Ppl always find a way to not give Nas the credit he deserves..
Ima give Charla donkey of the day for that George Straight joke 😂
When charla start talking Lebron I fast forward
Yea he a low-key Lebron hater.
LeBron & Nas. He finds a way to big them up and discredit them @ the same time.
this is one of the most intellectual, insightful and amazing podcasts I've ever heard. I'm glad that TH-cam's algorithm brought me here last week. this is the fucking truth!
Finally and episode where the “Brilliant” part of the show stands out in stellar fashion wayyy more than the “Idiotic” bit. The Hollywood/Streaming business discussion was fantastic. Keep it up !
Charla tried so hard to combat Alexx n Andrew like calm dwn it's ok if yur not rite lol
What Char is talking about at like the 57 minute mark hits home real hard. To have family and friends to see you "make it" is selfish in a way, but also you feel good because you made those people proud of you. I was in a homeless shelter when I was like 15/16 yrs old. I went on to make a music career where I did theaters that were 2-3K people. The thing that was missing was I had no one that was proud of me. I was still a failure because I didn't make a million dollars. The money meant nothing to me. Being on that stage, and showing everyone that ever said I couldn't meant more, but it didn't matter. I showed them and they still thought of me the same way.
One of the best duo podcasts right now
When everyone realized it was George Strait and not gay I laughed so damn hard
Coworkers looking at me thinking I’m crazy the way I crack up laughing 😂
24:22 I’m with Alex good sir. No cable since we moved.
This was a great episode honestly. 🔥
Literally screamed out loud, when Schultz mentioned Blue Streak. It's my favourite movie of all time and it hurts me how few people talk about it 😂❤
I respect these guys just cause they have the basketballs to sing Salt n Peppa!
Thank you for mentioning the breathing symptom of anxiety. I know I have it X10 but didn't know they were related. 😑
Watching this show helps though. Need to laugh my ass off.
Weekly shows help because people get a chance to discuss after each showing. Instead of the finale. That is the biggest thing for me and why TLOU, GoT, Insecure, and a few others worked so well.
I've rewind that straight joke 10x, I like charla saying I stayed with it, almost like I learn this from Andrew
how eminem is not in the top 5 storytellers is criminal.
Eminem created movies with his raps,
- My fault,
- Criminal
- Stan,
- Kim
- 97 Bonnie and CLyde
- 3am
- As tthe world turns
it doesnt stop.
You know he just doesn't like Em bro, no matter what
For some strange reason it's been trendy the last few years not to give Em his credit. It's very weird.
Just a comment in regards to the greatest storytellers in Hip Hop history... Nas - I gave you power, end of discussion. Thanks
Facts! Ppl don't give Nas his credit because somehow it's shading Jay-Z which is weird.
George gay was a classic 😂😂😂
The points made about streaming, paramount been doing that weekly release for people like cable and charla right about that. Especially with Taylor Sheridan. And I literally love the point about Tubi later in the episode.
What’s better than a B.I. Drop on Friday morning and an early Flgrant patreon ???
Secret Invasion is fire. Like this pod. People are missing out if they're not tuning in for Invasion.
Agree on the X-Men. The amount of stories and characters there are incredible.
that shit is ASS
20:30 I'll add that cable began to shoot itself in the foot by removing themselves out of what made them locked into the home.
Back in the day, every television set had a Analog Air and CATV tuner.
This sold the idea to buy up a Cable TV subscription so you can get more than just the basic broadcast air channels, but instead utilize the TV's CATV tuner that would get you at least 99 channels under Cable TV subscription.
VCRs had Air/CATV tuners as well.
But the Cable TV's push in the mid 2000 to "Digital" Cable and forcing their set-top box use on people that came with its own rental fee, killed the need for a CATV tuner being part of TVs.
VCRs were dead but there was TIVOs and TV Tuner card adapters for PCs that were picking up from where VCR did with allowing home recordings of Air/CATV content, but "Digital" Cable doomed the CATV aspect of it.
Worse is the Cable companies forced the use of Cable Cards as the replacement of CATV tuner and that did not catch on.
I think its Cable movement to control content is what ultimately killed them as newer players in the field like Netflix at the time was aiming to put their service into everything and not be exclusive to just their box to use their service.
Let’s gooo!! Gotta clean so this is a perfect listen! 🙌🏼
As a future film director this was an interesting episode to watch.
Haven’t started the episode yet and because of this comment I’m already pressed haha Schulz confused Oliver Stone for Ridley Scott the other day 😂
Praise Jehovah God and his son Jesus Christ!!!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🔥
When Andrew talks about comic you tell he don’t read comics
This is a beautiful set
This pod is 🔥 makes a couple hours at the job fly .
I’m gonna need an 7hr episode one day.
Please no. A good 2 hour episode is good.
Got damn Andrew !! Let Chris talk 🤣🤣
you know tho, Charla does it to Andrew. Andrew just takes a breath most times and let him have the lane! hahaha!
There's definitely plenty of people that add premium channel packages just for specific shows
No f'ing way Archie Bunker was supposed to be 37??? 🤣😭😭😭🤣 I lost it at my desk when he said that.
Sound of freedom just showed everybody they don’t need a big studio budget or backup from a big company and still out sold all of them
Andrew checked out 1/2 way through the EP. great work alex
Good catch, he’s over this show, but he feels like he owes it to Charla.
GUY CODE 2.0
THANKS GUYZ
old friends, great support, amazing humor...
Keeping each other grounded
Bronx Love guyz 😎
That nose joke about Shultz breathing 😂😂😂😂
Marvel/DC talk is my shit when it comes to Brilliant Idiots because they're always right 😂
Man hell naw their takes are always bad 😂 cthagod praises anything marvel so his opinion don’t count. Alex is just a Twitter head and Andrew the only one who is objective but he don’t know comics so he just spit bawling lol
one day yall will realize people outside of the Northeast dont GAF about Jay Z...lol
This is the best discussion about the strike
Love these guys
Guys, I appreciate this discussed about the strikes currently happening in Hollywood. All valid points, what I feel like isn’t being discussed is the enormous salaries these execs get. In what reality should a ceo make 450 million? I’m not saying they shouldn’t be paid well for running a company like Disney. They should be paid millions, sure. But 450 million?! Netflix spent 30 million developing a MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE movie. They announced last week that the movie is cancelled and no longer happening. But thy money was spent. It was lit on fire. This industry (for which I’m a part of) is fucked do to poor money management. They streamers don’t want to reveal their numbers cause they have been lining their pockets for years. The idea that a golden parachute exists for these execs is wild to me. Why do we accept that? If you get fired, it’s cause you were bad at your job, you didn’t do well. So why do they get rewarded with a 70 million golden parachute when they’re fired? Makes no sense. They have been pissing on our head and telling us it’s raining for years. Wish you two would discuss that part as well.
EXACTLY, and the crazy part is the 2% in profit both Actors and Writers are asking for is like $75 mill a year... that's like a drop in the buckets in which they blow money with. Hell A24 an indie studio that's been doing well, is paying what SAG/WGA is asking for, if A24 can do it while being like 90% smaller, they big streamers should pay up too. Its Hollywood Accounting, they fudge and lie in the numbers.
In a Capitalist’s Reality. To answer your question. Doesn’t make it right but yeah.
It's not complicated why golden parachutes exists.
I as a successful executive for a successful company would be taking a huge risk transfering to another company. Why would I take that risk? My labor is in demand. I can not control the environment completely. I am reliant on other people to successful convert to my way of management and getting things done. There are a huge amount of other varibles.
WHY WOULD I TAKE THE RISK TO GO TO ANOTHER COMPANY?
It takes a long time to interview and get an offer as an executive. It's not like you walk in and people hand you a job. You need to be interviewed by the entire executive team for integrative reasons... this takes months or even a year +.
Worst case scenario, I have no meaningful income during that time.
Golden parachutes minimize that risk in my life.
If the company wants my labor to work for them instead of who I currently work for... thats the price. It's called leverage... this isn't rocket science.
Executives aren't the only ones who get golden parachutes... anyone whos skills are in demand and who has the ability to think past the present negotiates this.
@@anthonyo7605 that’s valid, I understand that reasoning and where you’re coming from truly. I guess my issue is the AMOUNT. Per my initial comment, I’m not saying execs don’t deserve to be paid millions god running a successful company. What I am saying is they don’t deserve THAT MANY MILLIONS. Take Bob Chapek for example. The Disney CEO before Iger took over recently. By all accounts, he fucked Disney up and ruined the parks. He ostensibly was bad at his job. The job he was hired to do, he did not perform well. It’s that simple. So why is he entitled to that golden parachute when he got ousted. It’s not like that’s the only money he’s ever received for the position. My point is, capitalism is great, but this is what happens when it’s unchecked. Your “labor” isn’t really that is it? It’s your ability to make decisions which truthfully, others can do as well. Labor is the grunt work, the day to day grind. Execs don’t perform labor. They delegate. And simply put, you shouldn’t be paid half a billion for delegating.
@@apollo3jp867both valid points tbh… but yes the numbers combined on their side are stupid large when taking into account maybe one percent would solve a lot of issues we face in the film industry.
Obviously moneys not the only factor regarding the 2023 strikes - but for them to hog their cash and want to see their workers starve is sick
You can tell Charlemagne keep a lot of smart people around him. He is too successful to have dumb takes like he does 😂 Who is buying an actual Cable service like to watch 1 weekly Television show? Imagine buying Cox Cable to watch The Walking Dead once a week💀
I mean if we talking about season 2 -7 Walking Dead, I could have been that person.
They forot the biggest reason why people are leaving cable. PRICE! but they are rich and oblivious...the rest of there point is null and void if people cant afford regular cable anymore
He's successful because of his personality.
1:33:37 I would pay to see Andrew and Charla perform this. Definitely should be a live show open 😂
Iron Man is neither an X-Men nor a mutant
If Nas is just a “good” storyteller, there’s no one great.
Maybe there really isn't anyone great. Maybe anything above "good" is just hyperbole 😎
Charla be shading Nas on the low
Best podcast ever bro love these two together 🙏🏼
Chris ain’t slick with that subtle flex that line disease affects the rich and influential 😂
That's not a flex
Shout to the guys for this episode
J.Cole is also a superb storyteller. He can literally bring you to tears ((She's Mine pt. 2)). He's one of the best for our generation (90s baby) that I can celebrate while an adult. Bc obvi there are the greats from early 90s-00's, we was vibing as kids, but for this current generation he is top tier. All of 4 Your Eyez Only album + Forest Hills Drive goes crazyyyyyyyyy.
Hope is patience and confidence combined.
Didnt have Schultz as a Salt n Pepper fan on my 2023 bingo card
4:04 Alex you gotta chill out bruh 😂😂
HEZZY YOU FOREVER GOT MY RESPECT FOR KNOWING THE WHOLE SALT N PEPA JOINT
lol come on boyzz, The corona with a lime joke was right there!!!!
Greatest story tell rapper of all time. South Park Mexican.
Best episode in years, actual content
Y'all were spot on with the marvel stuff and all the analogies
You guys literally explained the way HBO/Max works
🙏🏽🙏🏽 J really killing it. Glad that he is breaking it down
This is a perfect new school vs old school.
