Lean on Me

Oh, um, movies.

Um, When I was a kid, my favorite movie of all time was Lean On Me.

Wow, with Morgan Freeman.

Morgan Freeman.

I can't believe you just breezed past it.

You're not even going to try it now.

look see this prick he knows me so well all right i'm gonna say lean on me 86

oh i would it's i thought it was somebody i wouldn't even know

You know, did you have good teachers? [laughs]

I, I, I had a few good teachers because they genuinely cared, but by and large, you know, if you, if you saw the movie Lean On Me with Morgan Freeman in it, that, that really de- described, that was very similar to my schools except they weren't high schools.

You know, my middle school, uh, the, the wire, I'm sorry, the lockers were welded shut because they had 11, 12-year-old drug dealers in the schools.

And so to try to put the kibosh on drug trafficking in my middle school, wow, I, I remember seeing drug dogs being brought into the school sniffing around, and after that, the lockers being welded shut because they wanted to put a, put a stop to drug dealing in my schools.

It's legendary.

Uh, also, he's in Lean on Me with Morgan Freeman.

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

The Crow with Brandon Lee.

We find a joke in it.

And Lean on Me has moments to where if you showed...

I saw Lean on Me when I was in elementary school.

If that motherfucker yeeted himself off the roof, do you know us kids would've laughed a little bit? Like, you gotta understand that you can't show this to a kid, right? But you know, you know the elders always like, "Yeah, that ain't a laughing matter." I'm like-

Oh, shit

But, but, but, but welcome, ladies and gentlemen-

Yes

... to the 3BG Podcast where, um, we talk, we're talking about Lean on Me.

Here's this Jim Beam.

Cut to the kids watching Lean on Me in class.

[laughs]

Morgan Freeman.

It's the HNIC scene from Lean On Me.

Yeah.

Great fucking scene.

Why Juju? Why did you go-

... from Lean on Me.

Why write Juju and why not ...

Well, Chris is next to him.

This was kind of like street style approach because this guy went hard, and that's kind of what he was known for.

But number three is portrayed by Morgan Freeman in the movie Lean on Me, Principal Joe Clark.

And there's a scene in the quote where he says, you used to call me Crazy Joe.

Now you can call me Batman.

What?

She walked into Lean on Me and was like, "Can you do something about the...

Mr. Clark? Mr.

Clark?"

This is, this is so bizarre.

[laughs]

Why would you, why would you take it back to Brown versus the Board of Education, and then set a scene from Lean on Me-

[laughs]

Do my version.

No one ever, no one ever does the Morgan Freeman from, uh, Lean on Me.

You know, they never do that Morgan Freeman.

The, "Kills your brain cells, son.

... being the I'm just gonna talk slow guy.

Yeah, yeah.

Morgan Freeman from Lean on Me is maybe my favorite Morgan Freeman.

I mean, I love that movie.
