who just doesn't really know shit about hip-hop as is painfully obvious whenever he has anyone from that world on with him.
Case in point here with him stating his three greatest rap albums of all-time were Takes A Nation (mentioned only because BDK had just said it), My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy & Check Your Head.

dude ain't funny enough to keep interrupting with the quips nor does he really know anything about the music to keep speaking on artists/eras extemporaneously like he does here.
He's got a level of 'speaking-authoritatively-borderline-condescendingly-while-espousing-fake-facts/theories-on-shit-he-really-doesn't-know' that is just grating at times.
Twenty minutes left & it's kinda hard to get through, for any who haven't heard the Kane Combat Jack you might be better off trying that first.

there is not a doubt in my mind we'd crush these clowns.
Any lurking or trolling venture-capitalists reading this, please.....do the right thing, give Bomb & Orbit a budget to talk to these legends correctly.

O_E: "Acts like an asshole and posts with imperial disdain"
These guys are annoying. Everytime they try to make a point about anything related to race my shoulders tense up and my eyes squint. I respected the constraint that Kane showed here....but eventually I was hoping for him to just let loose on these guys. They're the reason someone made up that term 'whitesplaining'.
8. "It pretty much only works with comedians" In response to Reply # 6
As Bomb said above, the Serch episode was great because ?uest told them what to ask. They're better off playing to their strength. Their episode with Chris Rock is all around awesome.
18. "With Pras it was different; you don't have to go too deep with him" In response to Reply # 10
A lot of the interesting stuff just came from the basic question/situations: Pras talking about knowing 'Pac was inspired by them seeing Suge at dinner the night before. Him talking about the whole Jersey scene with Treach, Redman, and Clef came from the basic "How did you get started in hip-hop?" question. In wasn't like their inside knowledge lead to a particularly unique interviews questions.
19. "The problem with these guys isn't that they're nerds" In response to Reply # 13
The problem is they constantly want to "get in on the act" and shine, because they're comedians and they like the attention. So they keep on interrupting with jokes and non-sequiturs instead of just letting their guests talk. Because they don't have the in-depth knowledge and they want the podcast to ultimately still be about them.
I think that's why these guys are better with comedians, but they're speaking the same shared language and can directly relate to their experiences.

23. "Neal can be a bit condescending" In response to Reply # 13
I don't mind Moshe tho. I don't really need these types of interview podcasts to be funny, my favorite episodes are the more deep and enlightening ones like the Aries Spears ep.
