You're so much more sophisticated than we are down here on planet Earth. Do something about it, your little green goblin focks. You got all your flying saucers and you're doing this, and you're hooting and hollering and taking pictures over New Jersey. Why would UFOs in twenty twenty four waste no disrespect to the great state of New Jersey. Why would they waste their time hovering over New Jersey? You don't think they've already figured out that New Jersey ain't got shit, that there's nothing interesting, there's nothing going on in New Jersey. Why the fuck would the UFOs be in New Jersey. Why would't they be in like Brazil or something like that in China? Huh, Tokyo, Hawaii? Why are they fucking around in Jersey? Boom, have no fear of the Iron Rapport stereo podcast. This here, Boom, have no fear of the im Rapaport stereo podcast. Is here. It's done. The NBA All Star Game is finished as we know it. It's over. They've ruined it. The guys can't find a way to figure out a way to participate and play in the NBA All Star Game in a way that is acceptable. They have turned the NBA All Star Game into some sort of wacky mini tournament which I still don't understand what I will try to explain to you. It is so disappointing and so disrespectful to the history and the legacy of the NBA. Plus, I am in Miami Beach. The banana hammock unfortunately hasn't been whipped out. The banana Hammick has hasn't been whipped out. There's a bunch of sick fucks running around all over the world, and your guy Luigi is one of them, and he's gonna pay the price because of you, you adoring fans. All that and more in a high flying, hard hitting, museum quality Iron Rapports Stereo Pockets coming up right now, Miles Jordan Ak The Bleach Brothers aka the Dust Brothers. Start this puppy over for something real nice. Start this puppy over something real loud, but most importantly, start this banging Iron rap Ports Stereo podcast off with something real functions. I am rap Reports Stereo Podcast Liberty. Let's go, Baby Boom, have no fear. The Iron rapp Reports Stereo Podcast is here. Biggy Boom, have no Fear The Iron Rapp Reports Stereo Podcast is in the place to be. Welcome to the Iron Dome of Disruptioncome to the Ziggity Zone of Disruption. My name is Michael Rappaport aka the Inflamed Ashkenazi, aka the Raging Bullshitter, aka the Sultan of Sniff, aka Mister New York aka the Gringo man Dingo. I'm rap Port Stereo Podcast coming live and direct from Miami Beach Banana Hammock season. Although I'm not being that honest. It's a little breezy down here, but the Gringo man Dingo is back on the beaches of Miami, and I would be remiss if I didn't mention that I haven't been able to whip out, whip it out, or whip out my custom made banana hammock because it is a little chili on the beaches here in Miami. I hope everybody's feeling good, Hope everybody's feeling safe. Hope everybody is finding time to enjoy or to start enjoying the holiday season, whatever you celebrate, whatever you're into. I hope you find time to relax, Hope you find time to shut your brain off and do whatever you want to do, just do it safe. Do it safe. Make sure you do not fuck around on these roads driving because this is when terrible accidents take place driving around. I always always get scared of hearing about some tragedies during the holiday season, but I'm wishing everybody a fantastic holiday season. This is the I Am a Rapaport Stereo Podcast, coming live and direct from Florida, Baby Miami, Florida, and we are winding down twenty twenty four. Oh my goodness, what a year. What a year. I'm not gonna do the I might do one. You never know, you never know what the I Am rap Port Stereo Podcast. We don't fact check and I try not to try to keep myself on my toes, try to keep you guys on your toes. The one thing you can count on every episode is that I'm gonna give it my all. I am going to give it my all every single time I pick up the golden disruptive microphone of the im rap Port Stereo Podcast. But I am not going to do today. At least, I'm not going to do the twenty twenty four best of worst of YadA YadA YadA. We've discussed it all. I will tell you that I am so frustrated with the fact that the NBA All Star Game is officially no longer. We might as well say the NBA All Star Game is done. There's no longer an NBA All Star Game because the NBA All Star Game is. It has been so disrespected. It has been so just the word is disrespected. There's been so little regard and respect for what it means to be an NBA All Star participant, what it means to be a Slam Dunk Contest participant. But we can all do without the Slam Dunk Contest. That's gonna do what it do. But the NBA All Star Game is, let's just say it's canceled. It's canceled. The format of the East, West or even mixed teams is done. They've tried every trick in the book and we can't do it. We can't do it anymore. The format is changing into a mini tournament. There's no longer two teams in the NBA All Star Game. There is a mini tournament featuring four teams, three teams of NBA All Stars and the winner of the Rising Stars Challenge. The Rising Stars Challenge itself is a four team tournament which will be held on the Friday night before Saturday night where the Slamdun contest used to take place on Saturday, and that of course features the first year and second year players, plus a handful of G League players. Each team of NBA All Stars will have eight players. There will be a total of twenty four NBA All Stars, the same number as previous seasons, and the tournament I mean, two teams will meet in one semi final game, Game one, and the remaining two teams will meet in another semi final game, Game two. The winning teams from Game one and Game two will advance to face each other in the championship game Game three. For each game, the winner will be the first team to reach or surpass forty points. The voting process remains the same, so ten players will be picked as the starters and there will be twelve players per conference. The fact that they're even I don't understand that this is the second time I'm reading it, first time, I'm reading it out loud. I don't understand it. The fact that there needs to be rules, regulations and a fucking tournament for the NBA players who are voted and chosen to be NBA All Star participants. Is it is a really really sad time for the NBA, I gotta say, And I'm not I'm not over exaggerating it. The fact that these guys can't get out there and haven't been able to get out there and participate in a respectful way year after year after year. And Anthony Edwards, who I like, but he said last year, we don't want to be out here. We don't want to be doing this. And if you ain't into it, why the fuck should we be into it? And there's so much discussion about the ratings this season and the ratings being down, and there's too many three point shots, And this is just really indicative of the majority of the players in the NBA's attitude today. They couldn't go out there and just play a game for three quarters, make it seem like they're playing play for five minutes, sub out, get somebody else to play for five minutes, sub out, mix some other players that will on a play do that for the first half the first two quarters, rinse and repeat the third quarter, and somehow some way act like you give a shit during the fourth quarter that there has to be a tournament, and there's a prize pool of one point eight million dollars in this tournament, where each player on the championship winning team will get one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars, the players on the second place team will get fifty thousand dollars, and I guarantee you it's still going to be a joke. It really makes me concerned that as an NBA fan, a true blue, lifelong NBA fan, will I give a shit in ten years? Will I actually give a shit in ten years when the players only care about playing at the most important time or seemingly important time. You're in the NBA and they just watered down this incredible league. And obviously the NBA All Star Game is the least of importance, but it's indicative of a problem within the league. And you know what's gonna happen, And I hope it does happen. I hope going forward, if these guys don't participate hard, and they don't play hard during the regular season, and they keep having to put incentive after incentive after incentive and people stop watching, you motherfuckers stop getting paid as much, I never know, that's what's gonna happen. It's all about the money. It's all about the money, and it's gonna catch up with the league at some point. And these fucking guys don't have the foresight to see the writing on the wall. But I'm very very disappointed with the way things are, and I'm very very disappointed are with the fact that they had to come up with this complicated, convoluted tournament for the NBA All Star Game. I tell you one thing, I always give a shit. I always give a shit, and I'm gonna be giving a shit. I got some shows plugged in for twenty twenty four. I'll be in San Diego in February performing at the American Comedy Club. I love that club. Been there, spend my fourth time performing the American Comedy Club the sixth, seventh, and eighth in San Diego. The sixth, seventh and eighth in San Diego.

Michael Rapportcomedy dot Com podcast. So much discussion about UFOs, which are now also referred to as UAPs. I think I just call them UFOs. I think they they ungendered. The un gender they're no longer gender identifying UFOs, so maybe they're calling them UAPs. In New Jersey, everybody's freaking out about the drones in Jersey. There's been drones in Jersey. There's been drones over New York there's been drones over Connecticut, there's been drones over upstate New York, and everybody's freaking out. Everybody's worried about what's going on with these drones. I personally don't give a shit. I think that this is some sort of mix between regular people fucking around. I also think it is some mix between some military testing good tests at all, tests it all. I have said once, and I say it a million times. I don't believe in UFOs. I don't believe in UFOs. I was having this conversation with my wife while we were laying on the beach with the wind blowing not as hot as I would have liked it, and she she's like all, She's like, you know how you know how arrogant you are to think that we are the only ones here? You know how uninformed you are? And have you read this? And have you read I've read it all, babe, I have seen it all. I've read it all. We've had this discussion before. I saw E. T saw that shit in the movie theater when I was a kid, so two thousand and one Space Honesty. I saw Will Smith in all those movies fighting saving the World. I've yet to see one of them little motherfuckers come down here and do something. I've seen the crop dusting, I've seen all of it. I've seen all the footage, all the photographs. Now you got every single person in the world. They're shooting footage of these lights, and I have I want to see one of them little motherfuckers get off one of their flying saucers and get it cracking, and get it cracking. I'm not worried about it's twenty twenty four. We're heading into twenty twenty five. We've been hearing about these little green motherfuckers, these little flying saucer close encounters. They're so sophisticated. If you're so sophisticated, why don't you come down here and start some shit. And why are they so much more sophisticated than we are collectively in the United States of America and abroad the world wide, just like the worldwide phenomenon. I am rap Port Stereo podcast worldwide. You're so much more sophisticated than we are down here on planet Earth. Do something about it, your little green goblin focks. You got all your flying saucers and you're doing this, and you're hooting and hollering and taking pictures over New Why would UFOs in twenty twenty four waste no disrespect to the great state of New Jersey. Why would they waste their time hovering over New Jersey? You don't think they've already figured out that New Jersey ain't got shit, that there's nothing interesting, There's nothing going on in New Jersey. Why the fuck would the UFOs be in New Jersey. Why would't they be in like Brazil or something like that in China? Huh, Tokyo, Hawaii? Why are they fucking around in Jersey? Everybody knows there's nothing important in New Jersey. If these little green goblin UFOs flying Saucer two thousand and one Space Odyssey motherfuckers are so smart, why are they wasting fuel, gas batteries hovering over in New Jersey? I wait, I fucking wait. There's nothing popping in New Jersey. There's nothing important in New Jersey. Why would these UFOs be wasting everybody's time getting everybody in a frenzy hanging out over New Jersey? Show yourselves, reveal yourself, Got everybody in a frenzy? Joe Rogan. All these reports of UFO sightings just In twenty twenty four, pilots report mysterious UFO sightings in Oregon. What's a drone? What's a UFO? YadA, YadA, YadA. I want to, I want to finally, I want one of these motherfuckers to finally come down here and show us what you got. I don't think they got shit. I don't believe in those flying saucers. Okay, I don't believe in them. Prove me wrong, prove me wrong. I've read the articles. I know the FBI they unsealed this, they've unsealed that, they've unsealed it all. I've yet to see one of these motherfuckers. I'm at the beach, beautiful beach. No one's in the water. Once you land your fucking you're flying saucer in the beach, landed in the water, get out, dance, walk on water, and fly off. You do that. I'll be a believer in until that time. Eh, it's nonsense. I'll tell you one thing I am a believer in is that these people, these Luigi Mangione, this alleged killer. Let's stop saying alleged he shot that guy in cold blood early morning, New York City. Who cares what his reason was. Shot the guy in cold blood. I don't care what his reason was. It's sick. Oh, all his fan boys and fan girls and everybody that thinks Luigi is Billy the Kid, thinks that Luigi is some sort of hero. You're gonna get this motherfucker. You're gonna get him put down like a sick cow. He's gonna get the death penalty because of you guys. They brought him back, extricated him, extra dighted him from Pennsylvania to New York, had him out there like a super villain. He had a fresh cut, clean shave, had his eyebrows threaded. You're gonna get your man a nice shot. They're gonna give him a nice drip in the arm, and they're gonna put him down. I don't care how many documentaries Michael Moore's running around. He's getting ready to do a documentary about him. There's four Luigi mangi own documentaries being made right now. And all this attention, all this adoration, gonna get him the death penalty. And you know what, if that's the rules and regulations, take him down like the sick pig he is, they should also be taking down some of these other sickos, not just Luigi. There's way sicker sick fucks than Luigi. But you want to fall in love with this guy, I think that he's something other than a cold blooded killer. Well, he's gonna get that attention. It's gonna come in the form of a needle with that good drip in it. It's gonna have that good drip in it. But a horrifying story took place the other day in New York City. A woman was falling asleep, I think on the L train. I used to take the L train out to Brownsville. I think it was the L train. She fell asleep or she was sleeping, and a sick fuck set her on fire. The woman died, obviously. I don't know how this thing escalated. Apparently there was alcohol and fire. He poured alcohol on her, like alcohol alcohol like you know that you know that brown that brown liquor or something like that, and set this woman on fire on the train. She lit up terrible. There's footage of it. Horrible. And this guy, as of the recording of the Iron Wrap Wort stereo podcast, is on the loose. This sick fuck is on the loose. There's so many sick fucks out there. I mean, there are so many sick fucks running around just New York City. Now, me personally, I don't fall asleep on the train anymore. When I was a kid, when I was a teenager, I would do that. I wouldn't dare shut my eyes on the train in New York City anymore. But they have a sick fox all over New York City and they're looking for this lunatic. And then they showed a picture of the alleged lunatic running around and of course he looks like a sick fuck. And then you got another sick fuck in California was arrested for beheaded his one year old son. I mean, what how do you get to this this place? How do you get to this place of no humanity? And there's so many sick fucks, so little time, they're all over the place. Before the podcast a sick fuck in Ireland, a radical gie hottist confused sick fuck who used to be down with al Qaida. Allegedly there was a Christmas fair on a Friday night and this sick fuck drove his car. And they still don't know how many people are actually gonna make it out a live there's so many sick funks. This is a Christmas celebration, a Christmas fair, a Christmas outdoor Christmas party. A guy ran his car at the most packed, packed, crowded time. And they got these radical ji hotists all over the world, all over the world. Send them the fuck back, take them down like they're gonna take Luigi down. They should be bringing those guys out. You wanna do this, You wanna allow wack bar this, You wanna ally a whack bar that. Okay, we're gonna arrest you. We're gonna put you in a hot shower, We're gonna put you in an orange jumpsuit. We're gonna get all the cops, all the swat, and we're gonna and this the last time you're gonna breathe fresh air, asshole, just like how they did Luigia. They need to do that with all these sick fucks. So much islench, so much kookie shit going on out here. It's unbelievable. And I don't know what it's from, why it's happening. I don't know if it's the food, the air we breathe, social media, a combination of all but you gotta stay safe, you gotta stay sane. They got superbugs out here that are causing people diarrhea. Okay, to add insult to injury. There's a superbug that if you catch it, you'll be shitting. You'll be shitting things out from the last fourteen fifteen years. They're not sure why or what is causing it. But this super bug, this diarrhea superbug causes violent diarrhea. Now, I, as you guys know, I have a lot of history with a lot of things with the stomach and the stomach not working well. Knock on wood. My ul sort of colitis has been it's been good lately. I mean, I don't even know how. I'm so lucky that it's been good lately. But the researchers at the University of California have identified a bacteria infection that causes quote unquote explosive explosive diarrhea, and it is drug resistant. It's a drug resistant explosive diarrhea superbug that is spreading across major cities. This is no way to end. We've already we've already had enough shit. We have already had enough shit in twenty twenty four. We don't need to end it with a explosive diarrhea causing superbug. Haven't we been through enough? But cities in California Portland are dealing with this, and hopefully they will figure out what it is. I don't need any problems with my stomach, and I don't need any We don't need this, Nobody needs this. We've been through enough. We've had enough shit in twenty twenty four, and I got a report. I mean, you guys know, I'm not a big baseball player, a big baseball fan, sorry, but one of the best baseball players, certainly one of the most exciting baseball players, the great Ricky Henderson. Ricky Henderson passed away at sixty five. Sixty five years old, which is so young man, and Ricky Henderson died of a pneumonia. I don't understand how that happens, and I'm sure he was probably in good shape, but fuck man, without your health, you got nothing but Ricky Henderson, the all time leader in steels who played twenty four seasons. He played twenty four seasons. That's incredible to play twenty four seasons in Major League Baseball. Was most famous with the Oakland A's, and I just remember you know when he was going for those those records stealing bases and hitting home runs, twenty home runs and sixty five stolen bases. He did that three times watching those games, and he was just even for somebody like me that's not a big baseball player. When he was playing, you knew he was just unique. The way he would catch the ball in the outfield. There was a flair style and totally a showman, a true blue showman. The Great Rickey Henderson passed away sadly, a sixty five that is too young for some need to die of a of a pneumonia that is terrible, terrible. Uh so, uh, you know, rip to the Great Ricky Henderson. A few people ask me what do I think of the new Snoop Dogg, Doctor Dre record, And I gotta be honest, I gotta be honest. I haven't listened to all of it. I heard a couple of songs, and thus far, there's one that I like, but I'm not. I'm not as happy about it as I will never disparage either one of them. I was expecting a different sound. I wanted a different sound. I wanted some work. Bat bat bap, you know, it's definitely you know, modern G funk. Like I said, I didn't listen to the whole record yet, I will give it a proper all the way with the headphones on, listen on a walk on a workout, and I do I do, I need shit. I need to get on a walk or a workout because it's one thing that I have been doing, if it's not whipping it out with the banana hammock down here in Miami, one thing that I've been eating like a fucking pig. Holy shit. Everything in sight, Everything in sight. The place that we're staying at, they have a buffet, and man, I walked around, I'm putting things in my pocket, muffins and they got you know, croissants and you know, eggs every style and macaroni and cheese, and I'm just stuffing and eating and it's just too much, too much. But I'll definitely give a full listen to the Snoop Dogg Doctor Dre record Missionary. But does far thus far, my humble, educated, very fair opinion is it isn't what I wanted it to be. Yet. It isn't what I wanted it to be yet. Anyway, I want everybody to enjoy the holiday. I want everybody to find time to chill, totally turn it off. I want everybody to make sure that you subscribe, rate and review and tell a friend to tell a friend about the I Am rap Report Stereo Podcast. And I want everybody to stay safe, stay safe, and stay fully fully disruptive. Miles Joan ak the Bleach Brothers, ak Ate the Diggnity Dust Brothers.
