Comedians Derek Humphrey and Meka Mo join the show for a deep dive into New York City history, personal heritage, and the chaos of modern culture. From Derek’s stories about growing up in Brooklyn and moving back to his old neighborhood to Meka’s hilarious "hair reveal" and perspective on systemic issues, this episode covers it all. We discuss everything from the corruption of the 70s-era NYPD and the documentary "The 75," to the evolution of Bushwick, gentrification, and why everyone is on OnlyFans today. Plus, we get into the Afroman legal case, a heated debate on whether Queens is actually better than Brooklyn, and much more. ON THE GATE! ENJOY!
