Lee was in Vegas for a conference and came back with COVID. Kops jumps right into wrapping up Hailey's Olympic experience - she finished in 15th place! Lee then breaks down his trip to Vegas. Part 2 of the conversation with Ali Dee continues from where the boys left off (14:28)… Ali has disbanded his group - this was a new situation for Ali causing him to struggle with depression. Ali, with the help of his friend who becomes his wife, pulls himself out of the funk and starts working on new projects. He develops a punk/hip hop band called The Grand Skeem, signs record deal number four, does a cover of Baby Got Back but is dropped again. Because of this project, Ali meets Master P and does a deal with No Limit. No Limit changes hands so Ali is back on his own. At this time Ali is done with hit and artist making and decides to go into making music for movies and TV. This turns into a career leading him to work on Alvin & The Chipmunks, Hannah Montana, Anna Kendricks' Cups, He-Man and many more. Kops and Lee close this out (53:20).

Episode 53 - Loyalty & Respect: Part 1 - is live with expert Ali Dee.  *The opening and closing music on this week's episode is a song called Who's Da Flava (1992) from our expert, Ali Dee!*There's some noise in the basement so the Idiots had a change in venue. Kops and Lee are recording this week from Hailey's bedroom, aka ‘The Bird Nest'. The Olympic opening ceremonies were a few days earlier, Kops and Lisa are very appreciative of all the messages and well wishes. They are enjoying this experience. Last week's episode had a very good response both in the number of downloads and the reaction the boys have received. There have been texts and calls from people who agree and disagree with Gila. In making this podcast Kops and Lee will always try to talk to different people and create a space to listen to other people's points of view - whether you agree with them or not. This week's expert is Hip Hop, movie, and TV music producer Ali Dee. Kops has known Ali for many years, they worked on some projects together. Ali has always been a hustler and grinder, there is a lot for all of us to learn from Ali's journey. Ali Dee joins Kops and Lee (09:39) and gets right into his early life and how he started in music; his mother was a Broadway choreographer, his father was a US government covert ops inventor (check out this Wall Street Jornal article here), then as a teenager gets involved in the Hip Hop dance & music scene. Ali created strong relationships and was the only white kid in these neighborhoods doing dance and rap battles, he didn't see color (literally and figuratively!). Ali started to write and produce songs then started a group called the Park Ave Rappers and was offered his first record deal - which his mother wouldn't let him sign. In 1989 Ali started the first white and black rap group, The Next School, signed to Chrysalis Records and released the single Profits of Unity. Ali goes on tour, leaves his The Next School partner, decides to take control of his own destiny, works on many different projects as an artist, then settles on being a full time producer.  Kops and Lee close out Part 1 of their conversation with Ali (01:17:00). Thanks for listening, Part 2 will go live next week!Follow Two Idiots and an Expert on… Facebook / Instagram / Twitter#oldschoolhiphop #oldschoorap #bboys #breakdancing #hiphop #rap #bombsquad #publicenemy #ybt #ApplePodcast #SpotifyPodcast #TwoIdiotsandanexpert #2IdiotsandanExpert

Please remember to subscribe to the podcast on your favorite app and share new episodes on your social media when they go live.  Expert Myron Sugarman starts Chapter 1 (12:33) off by telling Kops and Lee about his early life in Newark, NJ, his family and the family business. Myron fills the boys in on who Abner ‘Longie' Zwillman and Joe ‘Doc' Stracher were, the impact they had on organized crime in New Jersey and their relationship with Myron's father, Sugie Sugarman. These men all worked directly with Meyer Lansky for many years. Myron then goes into the relationship between the Italians & the Jews and how the younger generation had to work together to take control. All of this set up the early years of the Syndicate and La Cosa Nostra. Growing up Myron's family never had to wait in lines, ate at all the best restaurants and all of his father's friends were in the ‘business' - stealing, coin operated machines and fixing sporting events. Myron went to college and then after his father passed away, at 26, he went into the family business. At that time he started to travel the world selling slot machines - with the goal to bring slot machines back to NYC.Myron fills Kops and Lee in on how the Jewish gangsters in Newark dealt with the American Nazi Party. The Minutemen, started by Jewish boxers, would go out and fight the Nazi's at a minute's notice. Myron's father and uncle were supports of the Minutemen. His father, and all of the other Jewish gangsters, were integral in supporting the beginning years of the State of Israel with all types of contraband.
