Episode notes
Polished Public Persona Vs. Raw Channel
- The podcast hosts keep a polished public persona but reserve a raw channel for unfiltered thoughts and authenticity.
- Joe Budden says he uses the show as a curated version of himself while wanting a separate space to speak freely.

- Parks and Joe agree hustles that harm families or children cross an ethical boundary and should be avoided.
Understand Context Around Underground Hustles
- There's a cultural tolerance for underground hustles in some communities, but the hosts differentiate sympathy from endorsement.
