I first tapped into JBP when I was 18-19. I'm 25 now and I really appreciate Marc's presence. The rest of the crew can be kind of immature when it comes to real life issues and politics but Marc having a voice gives me the pleasure of the pod maturing along with me. This really is shit we can't ignore anymore.
These conversations are so illuminating on these men ethics and morals and characteristics.
Flip really said 375 million 😂😂
If everything is for sale, nothing is sacred.
She said “they under his Jeans!” 😭😭😭
Joe told Kevin to move, then a Kevin Hart draft kings commercial popped up 😂
I havent known marc long but I like hearing him defend his perspective.
Joe’s face when Flip said “million” 😂😂😂
2:06 they under his jeans 😂😂😂😂😂
