FS1 or Freak Show One? || #TRPE
Monday Jan 13, 2025
Monday Jan 13, 2025
Back again for our second show of 2025 this one is an absolute banger from beginning to end. Today’s show starts with some impromptu food talk around the world of cheesesteaks and how some restaurants have literally gone TOO DAMN FAR!! Shortly after we cover some of the funniest tweets of the new year (Michael Irvin as “Black Panther?”) and RDC’s epic Blade skit as public speculation swirls that Marvel canceled the reboot.
We also get into the Power Universe now that Matt has fully caught up and the EPIC WWE Raw premiere on Netflix this past Monday. This takes us into a conversation about Travis Scott & Kanye’s influence in the modern era and Chad dubs Ronnie Fieg as the only man alive who can save Adidas. But all those topics are just appetizers to the main course of our deep dive on Lil Baby having the best week ever after his classic album “My Turn” was named Billboard’s #1 greatest hip hop album of the 21st century (#8 overall across genres) and his latest album WHAM debuts at #1 on the Billboard 200. The guys break down the root of the now busted internet narratives, Baby’s fanbase, his goodwill with the artist community, issues with Gunna and why he can NEVER fall off.
And for the closer we cover the scandal that literally broke Twitter/X involving Joy Taylor, Emmanuel Acho, Skip Bayless & Charlie Dixon using FS1 like a brothel. We cover the history, allegations, fallout & examine where people like Stephen A. Smiff & Cam “The Hat” Newton completely missed the mark!! All this and more on another brand new episode of The Realest Podcast Ever.

Check out this episode on video NOW: https://youtu.be/Z_dMHLin3GU
Shelton Jackson “Spike” Lee is an institution of American filmmaking & a standard of excellence for which other directors/producers/scriptwriters are measured. His legacy spans 40 plus years and 5 decades of innovative film, television & commercial creation. He is a name and face that almost everyone on earth knows due to his proximity to the New York Knicks, Michael Jordan, Denzel Washington & his iconic film production hub 40 Acres And A Mule.
Spike’s penchant for detailed storytelling and innovative cinematography have landed him in the Library of Congress 5x for preservation in the National Film Registry for being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". In the words of Kendrick Lamar, “he’s what the culture feeling!” We are joined by Spike today for an amazing episode where we discuss him first falling in love with filmmaking, his influences in the genre, being inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, his unwavering support for Kamala Harris, and he tells us a MIND BLOWING 🤯story on the creation of Malcolm X. Spike also provides with an eloquent breakdown of “make up calls” at the Oscars an answers the question “HOW COLD WAS BERNARD KING?” All this and more on The Spike Lee Joint with TRPE!! 🏆

Tyson, Jordan, Jackson || #TRPE Ep. 333
Monday Nov 18, 2024
Monday Nov 18, 2024
This past weekend one of the biggest Premium Live Events of all time took place in Dallas, Texas at Jerry World. Jake "El Gallo" Paul took on the Ghost of Iron Mike Tyson on a loaded card that featured some absolutely entertaining and brutal boxing. From Barrios vs Ramos to an absolute slobberknocker between Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor to the main event, the card was an amazing start to Netflix foray into live-streaming sports events even if the servers were doing the stanky leg.
We get together today to discuss the ups, downs and arounds of the event, discuss the state of boxing and explore why after Amanda Serrano's ROBBERY going to the cards in boxing should be frightening for everyone. We also discuss President Trump pulling up to UFC 309 and why Jon "Bones" Jones is the greatest MMA fighter of all time. We close the show with some hard-hitting journalism exploring Evil Keith Lee (Mr. Chime Time) taking on all the celebrity restaurants in Atlanta, why grits last forever and examine the mental health of people who are still going to THE CLUB. All this and more on the 333rd episode of The Realest Podcast Ever.

Leslie Pridgen, pka, Freeway is a Philadelphia rap legend who solidified his legendary status almost 15 years ago, but coming up on 25 years in the game puts him in rarified air. With close to 20 albums and 30 mixtapes his catalog is not only vast but impressive. He has one of the best feature counts of all time collaborating with icons such as Jay Z, Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Nelly, Mariah Carey, Faith Evans, Jermaine Dupri, Jadakiss, and underground kings like Sauce Walka, Benny The Butcher & The Jacka. He joins us today to discuss his storied career, resilience after losing his 2 children, overcoming kidney failure and battling the duality of being a rap star while being a devout Muslim. He tells us never been told stories about the Nas & D Block beefs, how Jay Z set him up for success and why a partnership with 50 Cent never came into fruition. All this and more on The Philadelphia Freeway Episode of TRPE.
