Yeah but it's like frat boy-ish....u know like college humor

It's not edgy to me...it's actually more of the same. Like he's always eager to dive into race even when it's not relevant

He's always trying to mine the edgy stuff

Good hot takes aren't manufactured. They're like random moments that's kinda eye opening like listeners never thought about something that way before

But he'll dig when the topic is still kinda stale and drag it
I respect the opinion, humor is subjective.

Yeah well that went down hill too
Word

All Angela talked about were relationships and gossip

Envy wants to know how so and so made money and is quiet most times for better reason

CTG carried that show but once he got his side hustles all the way up it's like just coast on the day job and collect the benefits lol

oh no don't get me wrong

He's got funny moments and is obviously getting way better in his stand up

But in the podcasts it's like I'm too privy to the joke making formula while it's still raw and unfiltered and clunky

It just sounds like a guy who's been in a bubble trying to speak on other experiences and lowkey seeking pats on the back for being right

In fact I like it more when the cohosts have to retort and are like Andrew wtf?:childplease::rudy:

Then he quickly realizes what he just said is not even edgy it's just wrong:pachaha:

Don't know if yall remember but the Brilliant Idiots youtube channel changed the name to Andrew Schulz youtube channel. CthaGod really looked out for Andrew, all those subs.
Probably trying to clean up the image and pass it off to Andrew's brand of NON-PC

It's a 2 for 1 special

I think the plan at the time was for Charla to move to HBO and let Andrew take over that channel. But once his HBO show got cancelled, he was back to square one. I know that shyt still has to sting him today. If that show went ahead, he would’ve left TBC now... that show has been ass for years now.

Honestly I think it's too hard to have a multi year podcast remain interesting :yeshrug:
Earlier today I was just thinking about how trash JBP is now compared to before it was on Spotify
The problem for Brilliant Idiot is it's becoming an after thought to both of the hosts. When it first started Charlemagne mainly only had BC and Andrew was a nobody
Now Charlemagne has 30 different business ventures and Andrew has a buzz, the episodes seem like they just trying fulfill a quota , especially Charlemagne. He literally be on some "aight how much more time this podcast got" tip :mjlol:

Whole 30 minute segments on Summer Walker or Party Next Door. Podcast way to industry now, I prefer Gillie & Wallo podcast.
Word Idk how many times I fast forwarded when I heard

"...ok...so we all know so-and-so just dropped the album....react! what'd yall think?"

Mal: I haven't heard it yet......or it was cool...u know it was a good vibe
Rory: yea I still gotta listen to it more ...let it sit ... (never speaks about it again)
Parks: it was good..i liked a couple of the records.....
Joe: ..blah blah blah..blah blah......

I'd rather just hear the stories about the artists versus their "reviews"

Everytime he might get a big break to do that talk show he wants, this story comes back up

I initially felt bad for Charla because I think cancel culture has been abused and disproportionately affects black celebrities. But fukk Charla for enabling Schulz and his racist views. Also fukk Charla for his soft shoe c00ning and always trying to make Angela Rye and Amanda Seales happen. For those things alone, I can’t feel any sympathy for him.

LOl wait what?

Um ever since he got the battery pack from Joe Rogan and views from posting his jokes online....he went uber frat boy mode




Lol I hear ya'll, I really do. I just think he pushes boundaries for comedic effect. Sometimes it hits, sometimes it misses. He says too much on the serious tip in support of black people for me to think he's racist.

But let me listen to this clip too because I don't hear or watch everything he says either.
