Good to see you again. What's going on, 2 Chainz?
All right. So the name of this
episode is called "The Most Expensivest
Retirement," right? And so this is
the most upscale, luxurious retirement homes that I've ever seen

newest communities right in downtown
Coral Gables, 10 minutes away
from Coconut Grove. We have Miracle Mile
right behind us. We have a restaurant,
a theater, a cafe/bar. Fine dining, I saw
you have a gym, a pool. The building itself
cost $100 million to build. Damn. The marble, it's from Italy.
It's custom carpet. I see a lot of art.
I see the Versace plates. Yup.
I saw something about
knitting class. A lot of socialization, that's why people move in.
We have a lot of parties. We have happy hour in this room
right here every day. We even have activities
for dogs like Yappy Hour, and exercises
in the pool. Yappy Hour?
Yeah. Come on.
What is Yappy Hour about? Yappy hour.
I have a dog, you know. Our residents are not
only important to us, but their other loved ones,
like their pets, yeah. They come downstairs, and it's
a way for us to gather all the other pets
of the community. Yeah.
We got treats,
you know, toys, things like that
for them, yeah. So somebody can bring their... And all of this is
inclusive, everything? Yes.
