New Rory & MAL

Well the day has finally come…and no we’re not talking about Rory’s album (yet). Today we can congratulate Rory on the sex. Our guy is a father to a beautiful baby daughter. The bare minimum team continues to grow. Somehow we bring Spreadie Gibbs into this conversation. Rory shares his new perspective on life and how being a girl dad has changed him. We all reflect on moments from our childhood. From celebrating new life to birthing an album. Everyone go stream/download Rory’s debut album ‘I Thought It’d Be Different’. Rory can freely speak with us in the last press run conversation he’ll have in the coming weeks. Rory shares his perspective on creating the album and even invites an album critic on to the pod. We end today with another great slate of voicemails. Today’s theme is relationship advice. Tune in as the guys discuss all of the above, as well as offer some of the realest advice to today’s three lucky callers!

***IMPORTANT NOTICE***We previously recorded this week's episodes so we could all celebrate Rory's album in LA. That being said, this episode doesn't mention his daughter. We did however talk about Fatherhood Rory on this week's Patreon (available now) This Friday is when we'll discuss Rory's daughter and his album! Today we start with a classic controversial Mal  take which leads to us discussing generational differences and how our childhoods are drastically different from the kids today. Should we bring back bullying? We age out of grade school and share stories from middle and high school. Mal reflects on a guy with a nub leg that ended up being a legend. Meanwhile, Rory, aka Snow Cone, shares a gang story. Then Rory and Julian offer some insight on Greek Life. Is puberty only respected from the women’s side? The guys discuss how difficult it is to be bricked up all day with no out. Should men be allowed to become a gynecologist? This question splits the room and causes a heated debate to close out the episode. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as TI's character in ATL, parents on Only Fans, + more!

Gotta start off with letting you know that the opening track is "My Phone Can Die" ft. Ari Lennox & James Fauntleroy, the latest single out of Rory's album that officially drops next week! This episode the crew talks about Jay-Z wanting to open a whole casino in the middle of Times Sq, and why Rick Ross doesn't care about permits for his future car show. Then we get into Charlamagne finally paying his d*ck debt after Adidas and Kanye start business back together. Meanwhile, J Prince meets up with NBA Young Boy while also giving him a fair warning about Drake. Timbaland is making a new program that features and highlights the use of A.I bringing back the voices of your favorite artists that have passed. As always we go through your voicemails & Mal goes through Ray Allen's starting five and unpacks the fact that he set Lebron as his sixth man. We also got a NEW SHOW on Patreon called "RAM RADIO", so don't forget to check that out over at Patreon.com/NEWRORYNMAL. 

We hope all of our mom listeners had a wonderful Mother’s Day! Now let's get to what happens when your kid doesn’t listen. Ja Morant is doing his best to ruin his career. We react to his second suspension. Meanwhile, Lil Durk is doing his best to escape a lifestyle that Ja seems to be running towards. J Cole has a line that sparks a conversation about rappers that passed. We then discuss the difficulty of bringing people up with you. Speaking of uplifting people, Lil Wayne left a show because of how people were treating his new artists. In good news, Jamie Foxx is in good health despite what many outlets were publishing. We’re back with our second installment of voicemails and these are some good ones. Tune in to hear our advice, as well as discussions on the Knicks season, our Finals predictions, Brittney Griner’s return, + more!

Happy Friday…now give us our flowers. Recently we’ve been predicting a lot in the culture and to no surprise the streak continues. Mal was right about Kanye and Adidas coming together, while Julian predicted Tucker Carlson’s next career move. Meanwhile, Tory Lanez was denied a new trial. Staying in music (kind of) does Jay Z have an unclaimed son? Speaking of sons, Robert De Niro at the young age of 79 is having another child…this leads to a wild one-liner from Demaris. We react to Doja Cat’s recent tweets and give props to the Knicks for fighting for another game. Stay till the end as we introduce our new VOICEMAIL segment. If you’d like to have your question answered on air and hear your voice on the pod please subscribe to Patreon!

We’re back from our BRAND NEW STUDIO! Everyone, including Baisely, has a mic stand. We figured Rory deserved his house back so we agreed to surprise him for his birthday. Admittedly this was a big weekend for the team. Not only did we get a new studio, but Demaris is now Cardi B’s family. We react to the clip from Cardi’s IG Live of her shouting out Demaris for support. Cardi also has some words directed at Mal. The beef continues (pause) but with the whites. MGK responds to Jack Harlow and Rory is forced to choose a side. Chris Brown and Usher allegedly had an altercation over the weekend in Vegas, while Diddy and Jermaine Dupree may have agreed to terms for a Verzuz. We discuss A.I. technology and how much we would hate the A.I. versions of ourselves. Spreadie Gibbs was the best thing trending over the weekend. We react to that interesting situation. We end with music and discuss Ed’s big win for the whites, Armani White’s album, and Conway’s album. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as the NBA playoffs. Are the Knicks a lost cause? And will Anthony Davis stay healthy?

First things first…everyone go wish Rory a.k.a. The Ginger King, Roaring Ror’s, Young Train Conductor, one third of the Chew Live Crew, and the son of Jake, a happy May the 4th be with you/birthday. NY had a big week with the Met Gala so we took it upon ourselves to review the cat-themed fits. Somehow this turned into us reminiscing on our favorite old cartoons. We come back to current events and discuss the writer's strike, Roy Woods Jr. White House Correspondent speech and Ed Sheeran’s bold move if he doesn’t win. Staying on lawsuits, Frank Ocean is not happy with one fan in particular. Meanwhile, Brent Faiyaz inks a big pay day. Demaris claims Ice Spice has no talent which leads to a debate. What is an instant classic? Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as, J Cole’s Finsta?, Billy McFarland vs. Ja Rule boxing match, Smokey Robinson and Diana Ross, and an update on the NBA Playoffs + more!

It's big Taurus season. Last week we celebrated Baisley’s b-day and this Friday we’ll celebrate Rory turning the year Jesus died/Larry Bird year. Rory doesn’t know it yet, but we have a surprise party planned for him (it’s okay, he doesn’t read the descriptions). Anyway, Mal was bumping knees court-side with Jack Harlow at the Knicks game. Sadly, only Jack was fortunate enough to have Kyle Lowry jump on his lap. Let’s stay on Jack (pause) we give our review of his album and then discuss him self-proclaiming as the “hardest whiteboy in rap.” Mal reverts back to last week’s episode and calls Rory out for his Doja/J Cole take. In other music news, Ed Sheeran is facing a lawsuit against Marvin Gaye’s estate. Meanwhile false rumors about Coi Leray and Latto surface over the weekend from the Something in The Water Festival. This leads to a heated discussion about Cardi B and her Grammy win / her career as an artist. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as, DaBaby remaining canceled, the NBA Playoffs (we rank our top 5) + more!

Happy Friday to all you ghetto superstars. We start by discussing the deeper, darker criminal link between The Fugees and our government. Staying on music, we speculate why Jack Harlow is deciding to put an album out now with no promo. This leads to a deeper discussion about Doja Cat’s speculative rap album. While they figure out how to shape their careers, Kendrick is in full stride after grossing the highest rap tour. Then we put our conspiracy cap on after Tucker Carlson’s response video. Is he still working with Fox? In sad news we lost a daytime tv legend, Jerry Springer. We reminisce on some of the craziest moments in his show’s history. Like setting up the KKK to get in a fight. Speaking of a set up, Vlad has a new show with Compton Cops and Rory offers an interesting take. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as, Emmett Till’s accuser finally taking a dirt nap, the Knicks advancing to the second round, + more!

Well it’s the beginning of the week, and this podcast is now your only source for accurate news after both Don Lemon and Tucker Carlson have been fired. Over the weekend Demaris had a non-vip concert experience with a bumpy bathroom experience. Speaking of bumps, we react to Usher saying he’d do a Super Bowl Halftime show. Weekend 2 at Coachella has finally come to a close (sans Frank) and Latto used her performance to address some beef. Staying on beef, Jim Jones continues to pester Pusha T in a recent interview which prompts a subtle response from Pusha. We continue to reminisce about past beef which moves Rory (pause). Julian drops another random celebrity interaction, while 11-year-old Rory annoyed Benzino at a Miami Heat game. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as the Knicks moving one game closer to the second round, Tank vs. Ryan Garcia, + more!

Happy Friday! We’re back for a tumultuous episode as we head into the weekend. Out the gate we press Demaris about why women get to steal every holiday. We find out how Mal would fare as a step-dad (it’s not good). We’re back to giving Frank Ocean his flowers as the new CEO of the Bare Minumum Boys Club (BMF). While Frank was disappointing his fans, Chance The Rapper was upsetting his household. Did he have a hall pass in Jamaica for Carnival? Mal reacts to Lil Uzi’s alter ego, Leslie (that’s not hip-hop). Meanwhile, we continue to see Jonathan Majors' career spiral towards Tubi. Mal introduces an interesting conspiracy regarding the Ralph Yarl shooting and Shaun King’s involvement. Rory warns of a satellite crashing into Earth (if you’re reading this congrats you dodged the debris). Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as Bud Light's revenue loss (cue Rory and Julian’s redneck voices), a deep analysis of an odd dream Demaris had, why we should encourage the death penalty, + more!

We apologize in advance for Rory’s behavior throughout this episode. We start by supporting the union of Nicki and Ice Spice, but also predict how long it’ll last. This past Sunday, Rory, Mal, and Julian went to the Apollo to see Lil Wayne. Rather quickly we learned that Mal really isn’t a Wayne fan (argument ensues). In other disappointing concert news, Frank Ocean left everyone at Coachella upset after many technical problems and turning his set into karaoke. Speaking of karaoke, is it hip-hop for Usher to give 21 Savage a mic to sing? Even worse, is it hip-hop for Rory to DM Drake laughing emojis and never get a response? Friendships tend to come to a close which is also the case for Ja Rule and Billy McFarland. Did you hear about the woman that claimed to have hooked up with 6 guys a day for a week? This leads into a conversation about the double standard between men and women and of course high school bleachers get involved. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as, $200k in dimes getting stolen, Netflix’s ‘Beef’, Knicks/Lakers playoff wins, + more!

Happy Friday to everyone that joined the Bare Minumum Club. Today is the last day the shirts will be available. Get yours before the sale ends! Now let’s talk about Coachella. Who keeps booking A$AP Rocky as a headliner? Let’s stay on music and discuss the new albums from Daniel Caesar & Rae Sremmurd. Is Daniel Caesar still canceled and why’d he call out Rory like that? and the Dalai Lama still on the loose? Speaking of tongue sucking, Nick Cannon says he should have his next child with Taylor Swift. Since the simulation seems to be simulating let’s talk about how men are getting fake abs (even some of your favorite artists). Meanwhile, Woah Vicky calls out Lil Nas X for faking his sexuality (the irony). *Trigger Warning* we discuss how a man was moved to commit suicide after chatting with an AI bot. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as, the downfall of CNN+, Justin Timberlake making black people music again, new shows to watch, + more!

The Bare Minumum Boys are back to business. Rory and Mal directly address the cat burglar with (once again) the truth. After they set the record straight we get to the funnies. Religion has perfected the tax write off and pedo behavior. Do you, or have you, ever kissed your parents on the mouth? Speaking of predatory spaces, Hulu is making a Freaknik doc and aunties across the country are getting ahead of the footage. We then review Drake’s new track and offer reasoning on why this song isn’t it. The music conversation continues with an interesting discussion around 6lack and Chloe’s low first week numbers. Finally, we end with sports. Telfon Donnie was at UFC 287, which had Mal fired up, while the Knicks playoff run begins next week. Tune in as the BMB’s manage to discuss all of this + more without mic stands!

Don’t act like you didn’t listen to Linkin Park. Let’s jump right into music and start with Summer Jam. We discuss the lineup and the danger of the new location. This conversation leads to a deeper analysis of female rappers and what type of artists get pushed. Then we discuss the double-standard surrounding being bi-curious. In political news, Mal’s favorite Big T has officially been indicted. Will he remain ten toes? Or will he snitch? Insert our response to another reddit thread. Eventually, we return to the ongoing LSU saga. Would you go to the white house? Tune in as the guys discuss this, as well as why Eddin eats Shake Shack at the airport, Rory getting gray hair, another Mal c*vid theory + more!

Mal is still committing to Ramadan while Rory just discovered lent is coming to an end, which retroactively means he gave up lent for lent. Meanwhile, Eddin reunited with Whoreible Decisions and shared Demaris’s rose party, while Julian went to another Knicks game. Needless to say, none of us were at Dreamville. In Raleigh, Drake gave J Cole his flowers and dedicated a song to him so we ask which song the guys would sing for each other. If they’re not up to sing they could always use AI. Did you watch the Women’s National Championship game? Such as most conversations go, this great basketball was overshadowed by a media blitz of racial double standards. Rory brings up an interesting angle that points the finger back at the media as the culprit. Is it tricking if you pay for someone’s divorce? And should it be socially acceptable to micro-dose crack? Tune in as the guys discuss all of this + more!

Happy Friday! Do you have a Jazz crew? Julian went to the Blue Note, which led to more jokes from everyone. We stay on music and discuss DJ Drama’s album release. Then Mal shares how he saw Lil Nas X gliding at the airport. Unfortunately, but to no surprise, there has been another mass shooting (129th of the year). The team offers their opinions on this ongoing issue. We transition back to the funnies with Rory’s wild April Fool’s story. Rory continues to share the moment he knew it was time to stop playing basketball. We have a Jonathan Majors update (hint: those texts didn’t help) We end today’s episode with an interesting music conversation that involves LL Cool J, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, and Fab. Tune in as the guys discuss all the above + more!

Happy Ramadan to all who celebrate! Today we celebrate Baby D’s birthday by making fun of her. While she was away the rest of the team went go-karting with Larry June and Alchemist (YouTube Vlog coming soon) TikTok has taken over social media and now our courthouses. We discuss the ongoing congressional hearing, which sparks an informative discussion. Speaking of viral artists, Beyonce and Adidas are parting ways. Mal shares a difference of opinion on why that deal didn’t work. This leads into comparing the Bey Hive vs. The Barbs, which ultimately turns into a commentary on fan cult culture. Have you watched Swarm? Demaris seems like she has cult-fan tendencies (you decide). Tune in as the guys discuss all of this, as well as 6ix9ine’s internet return and Jonathan Majors recent controversy where Mal goes on an interesting tangent that leaves Rory sitting in silence.

Happy Friday everyone, today we’re checking in with the team. It’s time to heal. We’ve had a lot of episodes without guests lately (you’re welcome) Everyone shares personal stories of how their relationships/friendships have evolved over the years, as well as how we’ve grown. Anyway, we’re off that deep shit. The second half of this episode we lighten the mood. Julian asks the rest of the team hip-hop trivia. Rory is on a mission to redeem himself after taking an L on this week’s Patreon trivia (subscribe now). We cover questions ranging from Eminem, Tupac, Biggie, Kanye, etc. Please pay attention to Rory’s competitiveness throughout this segment. Trivia ends on a string of Hov questions that leaves Rory and Mal in a battle for the W. Finally, we end with everyone naming the album that had the biggest impact on them. Tune in as the guys discuss all of this + more!

Well everyone the time has come…We’re really going to miss our Ginger King, but he’s on to whiter pastures. Rory also had a busy nostalgic weekend at a Little Brother show where we all shared our last “fan moment” at a show. Then begins the No Jumper reaction where the guys reminisce in their past experiences. How many times a night do you have s*x? No chance you’re putting up Larsa Pippen numbers. This horny conversation led to Chloe Bailey and eventually Ben Kingsley as Ghandi (google it). Staying in messy relationships, Andrew Wiggins has a decision to make and none of us suggest Mal’s advice. Tune in as we discuss all of this as well as, women with body hair, interesting kinks, and more!
