  • Ye

    You should interview Kanye, he hasn’t been on a podcast with you since like Jesus Is King. Every time you do an interview with him, it’s entertaining, clips galore, and your ability to be patient when ye would go one a rant ( not a antisemitic one ) it’s good to have both of you together. Talk about his life, vultures era, nitrous era, Dave blunts colab, ai usage in songs, and the bully album and what he plans to do in the future.
