Achilles Anus

This week Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz discuss Martin Lawrence’s stand-up show and reflects on Martin’s legendary career. The guys break down why Martin doesn’t always get the GOAT comedian conversation he deserves, discuss the weirdest moments from celebrity scandals, and go deep on NBA drama—Jimmy Butler, Pat Riley, and whether max contracts are worth it. Plus, Diddy’s leaked voice memos? Insane. Did his assistant really expose his high and horny lifestyle? and don’t miss the debate on what really counts as “Black culture” and why New York slang is universal. ************************************ Sponsor Brilliant Idiots: https://public.liveread.io/media-kit/brilliant-idiots The Wind on Her Tongue - Anita Kopacz https://a.co/d/fWDancH Get Honest or Die Lying Why Small Talk Sucks By Charlamagne Tha God https://a.co/d/gpFlOol Check out Andrew Schulz www.theandrewschulz.com Check out all the podcast on Charlamagne's "Black Effect Network" https://blackeffect.com Learn more about your ad choices.
