Baby D is a bit hungover before the holidays, but we're here to lift her up. After discussing holiday plans, Rory and Mal put an end to the rumor that they're being considered for Hot 97 morning show hosts. Jake Paul got his bell rung, but Mal gives him props for even stepping in the ring. Dave Chapelle's new special further solidifies him as the GOAT of this generation. Plus, Mal has an issue with 21 Savage's "F*ck the streets movement, and who's more of a prize between Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on New Rory & Mal, Ebro In The Morning gets cut from Hot 97, Rory and Mal speculate who will take over the morning drive for New York's most storied hip-hop radio station, Nas and DJ Premiere drop a project that was worth the wait, and the guys kick it with Ghostface Killah at Mass Appeal #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s the end of the week, and we got some good news to share. The Knicks won the NBA Cup, but Rory ain’t buying into the hype of the tournament. Mal loved the energy Drake brought to Ebro’s DMs. Young Thug and Mariah The Scientist are engaged, and Demaris is happy for her girl. 50 Cent continues to be the biggest troll of all-time. Mal doesn’t understand why A$AP Rocky would want to make music when he got Rihanna at home. Plus, we put each other on under the radar artists, and discuss when checking somebody goes wrong #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Live from the Mass Appeal pop-up, Rory and Mal check in with Ghostface Killah. Ghostface hits on his confusion about the word "pause", how James Dolan convinced Wu-Tang to make a Kevin Durant recruitment song, and the time he got into a shootout with The Delfonics in the car #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a snowy weekend, we are back! Rory and Mal speculate what’s next for hip-hop radio after “Ebro In The Morning” gets cut from Hot 97. Nas and DJ Premier released their project “Light Years”, but Mal doesn’t think it was worth the wait. Baby D was bed rotting all weekend which had the pod trying to recall the longest they’ve gone without showering. 21 Savage compared ATL to a pdf file. No doubt that’s a wild analogy, but Rory and Mal get what he was saying. Mal salutes Bobby Schmurda for holding his own while getting jumped. Plus, another “Put Me On” segment, and why Demaris cuts non-confrontational people out of her life. #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on New Rory & Mal we examine if Busta Rhymes really does look like Tracy Morgan, give a shoutout to Kai Cenat and the Streamer Awards, try to make sense of Matt Barnes being extorted by A.I., and speculate what's in the unreleased footage of the Diddy documentary #volume All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
