Things Change Fast
from OutsideLooKINGinPOD · host Jaiquil Marshall
Chris Johnson has ALS at 39 and did the interview with his eyes. Plus the BET Awards, why Drake got robbed again, and what LaVar Ball's spoon video tells you about the Tina split.(08:05) Stop rewriting history. A conversation with an old friend who kept revising events we were both there for — and admitted mid-conversation that he doesn't mean what he says. We're at the age where we just look things up now.(10:45) New music. KWN's album All Pride Aside — going to be a conversation in two or three months, trust us. Plus Lo Shimmy, Benny the Butcher's Plugs I Met 2.5, and T.I.'s new project with the Jeezy verse on it.(15:06) BET Awards 2026: Druski ran it. The Christian Louboutin bit, the Ray J moment, the Jay-Z lean, and getting a room to laugh at Hov without glazing. He dropped two skits mid-show. Keke Palmer, respectfully, we're not going to agree.(22:01) Kendrick Lamar won Best Male Hip Hop Artist without an album since GNX. Going down the nominee list — ASAP Rocky, Baby Keem, BigXthaPlug, Don Toliver, Drake, J. Cole, T.I. Drake dropped Iceman. Drake hasn't won in six years. Do the math.(25:05) Every other category. Cardi B, Clipse taking Best Group and Album of the Year, Chains & Whips with Kendrick for Best Collaboration, Leon Thomas over Usher and Bruno Mars and Chris Brown, Kehlani for Best Female R&B, Olivia Dean for Best New Artist, Teyana Taylor twice. Our disagreement: Album of the Year should have been Leon Thomas.(29:55) Yung Miami's song, and India.Arie's problem with it. The crowd sang every word when Caresha walked out. India.Arie posted that the song's mass acceptance points to something bigger. Rate it one to ten. Chris says three. Quill says nine. Neither of us moves.(38:36) Daphne Joy and Akademiks. He picked her up on a PJ. Say what you want — that's a step.(43:55) Chris Johnson has ALS. CJ2K, one of the fastest men to ever touch a field, diagnosed at 39 and now speaking through his eyes. His interview with Michael Strahan, his wife Brittany, and the doctor who was willing to try something experimental after the first team told them to get their affairs in order.(48:30) They came for Strahan and they were wrong. Football players carry a significantly higher risk of this. Also: the device is running his actual voice, and it's the best use of AI either of us has seen.(55:45) LaVar Ball and Tina. He lost his leg. She had a stroke years back. Now they've split, and LaVar says she wanted to do something else. Our read: nobody left anybody — she came to him with a change of program, and he took it. Then we play the spoon video, and the question becomes how he was talking when he still had two feet.(01:14:16) The World Cup fans. We're not here for the football.(01:17:00) House of the Dragon — full spoilers. Episodes one and two are in a flow state. R.I.P. Jace. Sheepstealer going wild, Rhaenyra, Daemon, Baela and Rhaena, Corlys and the storyline that needs to move to his kids, Aegon fleeing, Alicent Hightower and Helaena getting caught, Aemond looking like he only fights people who don't want to fight, and Larys doing what a Varys always does.(01:30:20) Raising Kanan. Lou died in the first two minutes and nothing's happened since. Juke going to the police, Breeze, and when Ghost finally shows up.TAP IN AND DOWNLOAD!! FOLLOW!!!
