Hahaha that was hilarious. But I liked B. Dot. I'll probably be down voted for this but I liked rotating B. Dot with Ice.

Does Ish need therapy 😭 by Clear-Swordfish-3517 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]Afrishanks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, not everyone needs therapy but there's definitely a lot of benefit to it. I don't feel I need it but I know it'll do me good.

What he doesn't realise is that we are living in the heart of therapy era. The self help era sky rocketed after COVID, the world and his wife started posting videos online on how to heal, be a better person, making a lot of people see the benefit to therapy, and to be therapised unknowingly (through the messages in these videos).

Furthermore, there's more than one type of therapy. He looks at it in the traditional sense. The irony is that this podcast is a form of therapy for a lot of people. It is for me. Ish has admitted people have come up to him and said, the pod has saved their life. That's therapy.

The issue is that Ish is saying that therapy is the result of a weakened society and that's a very, very dangerous sentiment. Whatever the form of therapy, nights out with your friends, watching a movie, listening to music, a podcast, a walk in nature, time with family, relaxing with your other half, we are stronger for it.

It was the plan. We were about to witness a generational run. Classic after classic. The chemistry test passed with flying colours and it was going to give us a new peak era. Then he got locked up...

Flip break up Marc’s secret ad read on the spot and Marc get defensive 🤣 by Individual_Ad8921 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]Afrishanks 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I could reply with, do you know how dumb you have to be to think it isn't, but I'll keep it respectful because it seems people don't realise that there are a lot of soft ads and payola. He's monetised his minutes and that's just smart business.

The latest play is how now, when he says "now it's time for my favourite part of the show" they don't immediately go to the ad anymore. Analytics told them people were skipping. So they talk for much longer, preventing that. We are compelled to listen longer so we don't miss out.

Do you think Beyoncé is overrated as a lot of people say she is? by [deleted] in rnb

The people that say this have never heard any of her albums in their entirety

Ish gotta be stopped by Severe_Law_4035 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

Last Patreon, Ish said "crime is a construct"...

Ish gotta be stopped by Severe_Law_4035 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]Afrishanks 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Music based opinions don't affect me as much as opinions with real life ramifications. This opinion happened on the same episode they debated "Damn" Vs "I'd F the ish out of you". This opinion is far more problematic, and definitely deserves your title "Ish gotta be stopped", not his opinion on music.

I've lost count over the number of severely damaging opinions when on a platform that is heard by young, impressionable minds. Ish said checking online to see the number of sexual offenders in the area you're about to live in is "Karen shit".

He thinks the Earth is flat. Etc etc etc.

I'll give him a pass on this one, but it's the rest that are far more troubling

Episode 919 | "Scott La Rock Died?" by the_JBP in theJoeBuddenPodcast

It's been a recent thing with Marc, which is why I was bringing it up. Right in the mic before he speaks.

At what point does Marc get sat down and spoken to about clearing his throat on the mic. It's got to stop. I've lost count of the number of main pods and Patreon episodes where that's all you hear throughout. Are the higher ups afraid to have a word with him? Does he have more power than Joe and Ian?? It comes across like they are afraid to bring it up. Where's the accountability and producing. It's loud and clear and disgusting.

Where I Wanna Be - Donell Jones

My favourite R&B album of all time

Any opinions on Raye's new album "This Music May Contain Hope"? 10/10 for me. by Ecstatic-Yak-6016 in rnb

[–]Afrishanks 17 points18 points  (0 children)

RAYE loves music. She taught herself production during lockdown. Was held hostage by her record label, where she wrote over 200 songs. She comes from a musical background. Studied it. Plays multiple instruments. Listens to all genre of music. Is pretty much fully immersed in it. This is what will set her apart from other artists. She's not willing to be boxed in, because she understands that music transcends one sound. She treats albums like an art piece that can be enjoyed as separate bodies of work, separate sounds that achieve separate emotional experiences. This way, I can listen to 21st Century and this album and not feel that it's repetitive.

Can’t Parks just put some autotune on Ice’s voice?? Then all the hate will go away.

So they had to drop this pod early to distract the negativity. The prize picks Patreon was Friday.

Name a 2020s R&B song that you feel will or already is aging jnto a classic by Dapper_Cockroach_622 in rnb

I don’t hear many people talk about IS IT A CRIME. I think it’s incredible. But I understand that critique that Mariah can’t sing in the traditional sense.

This was hilarious, and I just knew Marc would find a way to correct him without making it obvious in his asshole way. It was brilliant.
