00:00To someone popping up in Hollywood, we have not seen here in a long time and didn't expect to, Diddy.
00:06He is on the West Coast for the first time since the raids that we know of, he has left Miami.
00:13And we got video of him out and about, very casual, just talking with some, I don't know who this person is,
00:23but this is Diddy on Wednesday morning out in Hollywood.
00:27Yo Diddy, what's up bro, good man, happy Wednesday to you bro, thank you man.
00:33Yeah, it's not dissimilar to videos we've gotten of him walking around his neighborhood in Miami,
00:38the difference is that he is now, he's back on a plane and come back to LA.
00:43We don't know who he's talking to there, but I gotta say, given the, when you take the temperature right now,
00:50of the way people feel having seen the Cassie video, it's bold to go out in public,
00:56It's bold to go out in public, and it makes me feel like it's probably somebody, maybe a staffer,
01:01because we saw them walking around for a few blocks in West Hollywood.
01:06I'm with you Harvey, I was stunned to see him out, I mean he is risking potentially getting yelled at,
01:14you know, made fun of, all sorts of bad things coming his way.
01:18It had to be, I think you're right Charles, a really controlled environment for him to be willing to do this.
01:22It is really interesting that he would venture out this way, and look, the grand jury is meeting right now.
01:29I will be stunned if he's not indicted.
01:32If they don't find something that they're gonna, we don't know what they, we know what they are trying to find.
01:38But given they got a search warrant for it, which means they found probable cause,
01:42and given that the prosecutor has free reign before a grand jury, they're bringing alleged victims in and all,
01:49it is not hard to indict somebody, and so I would be stunned if that doesn't happen.
01:53By the way, as for why he would be out here on the West Coast, it could be for business,
01:57but also his kids, while he has been in Miami all this time, most of his kids have been here in LA,
02:04so it could be that he's out here for a family, some sort of family event as well.
02:10I'm Atlanta in Denver, but for me I'm like, whoo, I'm not familiar with this man,
02:15because I think there's a certain level of behavior that warrants irrelevancy.
02:19I've canceled men in my life for much less, and so I don't know how everyone's gonna see this and be like,
02:24oh my god, I'm such a fan, but we've seen it before, we'll see it again.
02:28And I don't know, money over morals, but I fully would expect my friends to tell me if they saw Diddy as well,
02:34but more in like a you'll never guess who I saw kind of way, versus a oh my god, you'll never guess who I saw.
02:40Yeah, I hear what you're saying. I don't think it's the latter.
02:42I don't think anybody's gonna do the latter these days.
02:44I don't know, I will just harken back to the guy we started the show with.
02:48You know how many videos we saw in Las Vegas, people hanging out with OJ, happily taking photos.
02:54That's a fair point. That is a fair point.
