I’m sorry Gene, what a terrible loss

Cyprus Davis

Aw man what a great combination of guys this week. Gene, Colin, Cog, and the Daegster.

inlovewiththecoco

That’s what happens when people get too comfortable

The Central Long Islander

Respect my guy!!

Daddy T

Colin lives in Suburban Virginia, I think he’ll be fine. Cog literally commented here that’s it’s all good, context

The Iron Lords Podcast

All love, brother. I know where you are coming from! In your example, you are correct about a random guy pulling up to the P's. That would be a sensitive and potentially dangerous situation for an individual of another ethnicity. lol However, this was an intellectual discussion among friends, where we were having a deep-dive conversation about a rap artist and the exact title of the rap song that the artist named himself. - All love brother

The Central Long Islander

True story. I know you can’t have a deep convo on these threads. But I know if we talked, you would know and understand exactly where I’m coming from. I think you do know, but just trying to keep the peace. If a white guy pulled up to Pelham housing projects, the convo might go a lil different regardless of intent. But thanks for the response Cog. Always a real one.

The Iron Lords Podcast

and keeping it real to your point....if my boss said the hard "r" (which didn't happen here), regardless of a song playing, and directed at me with malicious/hurtful intent....then I have to pull them to the side & we need to have a conversation lol

The Central Long Islander

Cog, let’s be serious. If I walked into my job and my boss said that, there would be problems. No matter the context. Ain’t tryna stir the pot. But we gonna keep it real.

The Central Long Islander

Did you hear the part where he said it’s he thinks it’s ok because he married a black woman.? Truest and believe a dude on the street don’t care about that.

The Iron Lords Podcast

Non issue guys.... remember....."context" & "intent" . Colin & Dagan are the homies & LOVE hip hop. 🤜🏾🤛🏻

Daddy T

Nothing, it’s the title of the song lol

inlovewiththecoco

Yup. That and his ignorant takes on hip hop + black culture let me know he’s willing to speak confidently on things he knows nothing about. Unsubscribed

Daddy T

Wakes are some session aren’t they, the stories do be something else

Daddy T

It’s the name of the song man, relax

[ Enrique ]

Thank you for the breakdown some people dont get it.

Derrick wears Vaseline-filled socks

Gene, just wanted to say we love it when you’re on anything. Appreciate you!

The Central Long Islander

Home pass is cool. Go to a black neighborhood park and say it tho. He will get his head punched off. Just disappointed Cog didn’t respectfully educate him. Because Cog from the BX. So I know for a fact he felt some type of way about that.

Mike Held

Gene modeling his entire personality after Kanye West certainly explains a lot. The dude is so out of touch and full of himself. Between him and Jaffe I often think about canceling my patreon or just subscribing to the lowest tier for Sacred Symbols.

Markeus

Fax, you right🤣 just wanted to rub it in others faces . Stir a pot 😭. Micah may give him a home pass🤷🏻

The Central Long Islander

A true learning lesson for Colin. Keep shit like that between him and Micah. That’s all. Nothing more, nothing less. He shouldn’t be canceled, and I still like the guy. But as a listener, he should be educated, on not publicly announcing that word as a white guy.

The Central Long Islander

I didn’t say he should be canceled. I said he shouldn’t publicly say shit like that. Doesn’t matter intent. I’m telling you as a black man. The word, is the word. Especially coming from a white person. the word was “nigger”, what us black people did was revolutionize the word dropped the hard “er” and transform it to a “A”, as a term of endearment being that white folk decades ago referred to us as that in a demeaning way. not sure why I have to explain this to you. But odds are, if you wouldn’t walk down the block and say that to a random black person, odds are you shouldn’t be saying the word. Stick to saying whatever in the privacy in your home. Why exactly did we need to know he says that? That was literally the most idiotic thing I’ve heard come out of Colin’s mouth since LSM started. please dont tell a black man how the word should or shouldn’t matter, because of “intent”

Ryan

As a Knockback fan first and foremost, Dagan was always mad ahead of the curb on the good stuff.

Ryan

I skip when he’s on now tbh

Ryan

Biggest liar guy energy of all time. I don’t not believe all of it but def heavily exaggerated.

Jose Velez

Lol

Jose Velez

Intent doesn’t matter? lol okay. I guess Colin should be canceled context be dammed.

The Central Long Islander

So why “brag” about saying it. Clearly the issue is white people saying it.

Frank G.

What's wrong with saying niggas in Paris.

Derrick wears Vaseline-filled socks

You guys are now contractually obligated to have a DagsterXSnarkTank episode since the gamer word has been uttered.

Gabriel Baker

I think he’s a compulsive liar, which makes his stories more entertaining. It’s not all made up, but embellished for sure

Markeus

I’m Black

The Central Long Islander

Don’t matter what the intent is. Some things just shouldn’t be publicly said “Colin knows that”. And I guarantee you cog only didn’t say anything because it would have been awkward. Some things should stay behind closed doors with your wife.

Jose Velez

There’s no mal intent behind it. And cog knows that.

Brendan

I went on an Anne Frank walking tour in Amsterdam last year, not expecting much other than to see the city and kill some time, and when we got to the monument there I broke down crying. Cog is spot on, that shit is real powerful.

Cameron Sturre

Gene, don’t let yourself be exploited by women for your money. There’s no expectation to dish out hundreds on champagne and fine dining. You don’t want to be associated with anyone who would foist that on you.

The Central Long Islander

You’re the exact patreon member people talk about when they go at Colin

The Central Long Islander

Because, you have common sense lol.

The Central Long Islander

That shit don’t matter at all.. if he has to stutter, and wonder if it’s ok to say, chances are, it isn’t. And him even saying that was completely pointless and irrelevant. Why did he feel the need to let us know that’s what he says within his home. Still fuck with Colin, but that was a dumbass 20 second digression.

The Central Long Islander

So surprised cog didn’t check Colin for saying that. That shit ain’t cool, and you’ll get your head punched off saying that too certain people within the black community. Some things should remain behind closed doors. And gene.. it’s ok for you to say it.. lol.. gene you’re Asian or some shit like that. Sit this one out buddy.

Bogey

I don’t think it’s a big deal to sing along to a song or whatever, but when you’re on a podcast with one of your black employees it’s just sorta poor form to say it and ask why you can’t say it. Even if he did have a problem with it, he’s now in that awkward position of not wanting to rock the boat.

Markeus

I say it whenever I want especially during a song.

[ Enrique ]

Smh even worse my brotha🤣

king_ryan_james

I still can’t tell if Gene is telling the truth or if he’s a pathological liar haha

Scott LaFontaine

The original upload it wasn't beeped ☠️

[ Enrique ]

Colin you are brave to admit you sing along to those songs at home (a lot of people do) but you cant be saying it out in public or on the internet, thats too much, i know you beeped it but you are inviting trouble into your life.

Daniel E

Can’t wait to keep hearing him say the N word since he has an apparent pass to say it.

TGBahr

Phenomenal! This format is so true and raw, I love getting to know you guys better and it such a nice change to get to other, more meaningful things apart from games. We all love them but life is so much more obviously. Kudos for being so open and personal with us.

NeO JD

Severance S1 is a classic but I wouldn’t call it better than Lost or Westworld yet. I’d argue both of those shows have a better 2nd season so far but I’m probably in the minority there.

Alec Budge

bro Gene just kept going on and on about himself AGAIN

Deemac

Speaking as an actual Irish person (who unfortunately has been at many wakes in recent years between my own family, and family of friends), I can definitively say I've never seen a fistfight at a wake lmao. There was one where there was some tension regarding who was being left what, but that's it. Maybe this stereotype has just died out in modern years or it's an Irish American thing, but I've never seen it anyway. What is a very true part of the stereotype is the wake being a bit more light hearted after the initial commiserations to family (outside of a particularly tragic wake, like a young person or multiple deaths) - a few drinks are had, funny stories told of the deceased etc. Often you're catching up with old friends. It's like a celebration of their life, which is a nice way for it to be. A tradition is that the body is never left alone for the duration of the wake(and a wake is often 2-3 days long), so the wake typically goes late and a handful of male neighbors/friends stay up throughout the night and talk shit lol

Mark M

I lost both my grandparents over the winter so the funeral topic was definitely well timed for me, and nice to hear.

Russell Robinson

I'm pretty sure that's what he's remembering. Dagan spoke highly of 90's Hip Hop. De La Soul, etc. I remember being annoyed that Colin said that with no knowledge of all the underground or other artist with substance. I think Gene is mistaken.

Michael McCoy

GOATED line up, I wish these four had a weekly show together.

Sween flossing with his own entire body

I’m joking about ‘justifying being a patron.’ I wouldn’t leave Patreon because he’s just referring to a song. However I do hold the wild opinion that white people shouldn’t be saying the n word at all.

Eric Golley

God I love Cog

Joe McPartlin

It's the name of the song. Calm down. 🙄

Nick Shillingford

I can’t tell if this comment is a joke or serious.

Birds Aren't Real

Why do you have to justify it? It's not that serious lol

Antonio C.

But you didn’t need to say it! Haha that went nowhere.

Eric Smith the Bartender (not the Sony Employee)

Colin with the N word is WILD. Lockmort is gunna be diabolical with that one.

Derrick wears Vaseline-filled socks

light weight baby

Jordan Falduto

nothin but a peanut

Sween flossing with his own entire body

God dammit. Now I have to justify to myself being a patron because Colin says the n word now. Chris doesn’t even say the n word on Snark Tank and he says real fucked up shit lol.

Derrick wears Vaseline-filled socks

Let’s be honest, no one is topping Ronnie Coleman in a suit.

Bob Spiers

Gene …. We have similar lives man. I reached out before about having colon cancer and your story at the end also happened to me. It’s really tough mentally! No idea how much you sharing helps 🫡. Thanks man.

Ben Haner

Great episode guys

Derrick wears Vaseline-filled socks

Colin has achieved Ultimate Gamer status.

Lemonworld

Shout out to Hold My Liquor. Such a banger of a track

Chris T.

Kanye’s first 5 albums are undeniable CLASSICS.

Steve

I think I might’ve been at the same Kanye show as Gene if it was at MSG

Gene Park

that's probably it. i'm sure i misremembered something.

Birds Aren't Real

Yeah I'm not sure where Gene is getting this from. I remember Colin saying Hip-Hop is fake and one dimensional during the rap beef constellation episode, but i don't remember ever hearing Dagan saying anything like that.

Joe McPartlin

Yeah that's gonna get clipped haha. It's the name of the song though.

Joe McPartlin

College Dropout is genre defining

Mike Held

I don't know what MBDTF is. I'll admit, I've only heard his singles and I'm not the biggest rap fan. I more enjoy rock. That being said, none of his singles has ever made me think "wow, how profound. This guy's a genius". Just sounds like generic rap to me. He's nowhere near the level of Eminem, Jay-Z, Nas, Outkast, and more recently Kendrick Lamar. For me, Eminem is the greatest rapper/hip hop artist of all time. Recently been into Ren, a UK rapper. Good shit.

Mike Held

"You ain't got the answers Sway!"

Caleb Peacock

There’s a massive argument he’s the artist of the 00s. You have shitty taste in music if you think anything up to MBDTF sucks lol.

Billy boob

Yeah seems off for sure Dagon lore has always been how he massively appreciated early hip-hop etc, maybe it was a convo that was more about how he didn’t like that side of it or something but that seems out of character too.

Straith

Crazy that people are still pretending Kanye wasn't always an unhinged moron. South Park made fun of him back in the day for a reason.

Eric the human

no it's too funny

Zack E

Can the description mention who’s on the show for the week?

Diddy’s Dong Quest

Kotaku already got the clip ready 🤣

Diddy’s Dong Quest

His first 7 albums truly shaped the future direction of an entire genre of music and style of celebrity. Yes, he’s a piece of shit. But both are true.

Mattveego

Ya’ll gotta bleep that 😂

Carter Ellis

Agreed. Dagan is an OG! He appreciates good music.

Bogey

I finally got far enough in where this comment made sense lol

Tyler Stafford

Not disagreeing with that, Kanye is a psycho.

Mike Held

Yeah, why am I not surprised that Gene modeled his entire personality after Kanye West... Explains a lot.

Robert Jones-Fields

Not listing the guests actually kinda sucks. Sure I’ll listen to intro and find out who it is in 1-30 minutes but I’d much rather know of i need to add it to playlist or delete it. Kicking ass besides that!

Bogey

Because he’s an important figure in one of the panel’s life and had an impact on him, and he wants to discuss him. Which is what we should want this show to be, them talking about what they feel passionate about, not just what’s in

Pianopower

Music is subjective to a degree. Since it’s also a craft , there’s standards of quality for a reason.

Carter Ellis

3/3/2025. The day it happened. The day it was uttered.

Mike Held

True, music is subjective. I personally don't like his music. However, him being a narcissistic douche bag for over 20 years is an objective fact.

Bogey

I really don’t think Dagan said what Gene says he did about hip hop. The man is a huge fan of De La Soul, of course he wouldn’t think Hip Hop is just about gang banging and gold chains

Markeus

I like just hearing what Colin has to say duplicated or not

Tyler Stafford

Music is subjective.

Mike Held

Kanye West has been a narcissistic douche bag for over 20 years, since he became famous. And his music sucks. Why are we still talking about this guy?
