A Philly legend, hip-hop icon, media personality, and die-hard Eagles fan, Gillie brings his signature energy, humor, and wisdom to the show in a conversation packed with passion, inspiration, and plenty of laughs. Gillie reflects on his journey from rapper to respected entrepreneur, sharing how he and his cousin Wallo built Million Dollaz Worth of Game into one of the hottest podcasts in the game. He dives into his deep-rooted love for the Philadelphia Eagles, detailing what it meant for him to run out of the tunnel with the team and the emotional rush of representing his city on that level. From his relationships with Nick Sirianni, Jeffrey Lurie, and Howie Roseman to his viral Sports livestream, Gillie breaks down why sports unite people like nothing else and how Philly's energy is different when the Eagles are winning. Plus, Gillie hilariously recalls his pregame rituals—including dancing to "Candy" by Cameo and "Blow the Whistle" by Too Short—to hype up the fans and troll opposing teams. With stories about movie roles with Ving Rhames, Philly’s underdog mentality, and the sacrifices he’s made to get where he is today, this episode is filled with raw, unfiltered motivation.

Club Shay Shay - Gillie Da Kid Part 2
Welcome back to part 2! Gillie talks about his dominance in the Big 3 Celebrity Game, where he won MVP three times and jokes about how the NBA celebrity games are political. He’s not holding back when it comes to challenging Jamal Crawford to a one-on-one, and he even gives props to Chris Brown's hooping skills while teasing Bronny James. He reflects on his past—his basketball scholarship, his legal troubles, and the pain of losing a friend—but emphasizes how far he’s come, crediting his wife for showing him a new perspective on life and helping him transform. Through his journey, Gillie highlights the importance of hustle, citing Meek Mill’s rise as a testament to staying focused despite the challenges. He shares raw truths about navigating the entertainment industry, including turning down a deal with Jay-Z and Dame Dash, and dealing with the hate that often comes with success. He talks about second chances, particularly how his podcast has been a platform for redemption for artists like DaBaby and Tory Lanez. As the conversation turns to the topic of rap beefs, Gillie opens up about how they’ve been a natural part of the rap game. He compares rap battles to losing an NBA final—disappointing, but not the end of the world. He reflects on the biggest beefs in hip-hop history, like the ones between Jay-Z and Nas, emphasizing that it’s all part of the culture and shouldn’t be taken too seriously. He stresses that egos often get bruised, but at the end of the day, it’s about the art. He touches on the beefs he’s had, including misunderstandings with artists like Rick Ross and Lil Wayne, but insists he’s focused on the bigger picture—his business and his work. Gillie talks about how rap beefs can be entertaining for fans, but they often don’t know the full story behind the scenes. He reveals that the real challenges come from navigating the music industry itself and the struggles of being successful while dealing with personal and professional pressures. He speaks about how he’s moved past petty beefs and focused on growing his brand, staying true to himself, and supporting others in the industry who are working hard to make their mark. As the conversation turns to personal matters, Gillie opens up about the impact of fame on relationships and how he has evolved as a father and grandfather. He discusses his regrets, including the loss of his son and the life lessons he’s learned along the way. His message is clear: life is precious, and the streets aren't the answer.
