1
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: I think there's probably a lot of laws about how

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: far a school nurse is allowed to dig in a

3
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 1: child's body. That's my expectation, is that, like, if you're

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:13,520
Speaker 1: beyond like an inch and a half, all right, now,

5
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 1: this isn't far. It's the tips, the tip you might

6
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,960
Speaker 1: be into this, we gotta call a professional that can

7
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,480
Speaker 1: come back and take care of them. I don't know, baby,

8
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 1: that's bad child. We love to but can you're trying

9
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: to get me fired. Hold on, let me call the police.

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: Get out of here, like some chips in your racist

Speaker 1: My Mama Told Me, the podcast where we dive deep

14
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 1: into the world of black conspiracy theories. And we do

15
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: it for our granddaddy's, we do it for our big mama's,

00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,399
Speaker 1: we do it and we put our backs into it.

18
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,119
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, I am your host, Lankston Kerman. As always,

19
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: I am so happy to be here with you. What

20
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: a treat of an episode we have. I'm doing well.

21
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm drinking a new flavor of Lacroix today. It's called

22
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: lemon Cello. It tastes like all the other Lacroix, but

23
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: this one feels exciting. It's new, it's dangerous and I

24
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: can't wait for you kids to have it. I'm not

25
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: sponsored by Lacroix. I just funk with it and I

26
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: want to talk about it on here. But you know

27
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: what's more exciting than new flavors of Lacroix. It's my

28
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: guest today. She is wonderful. Do you know her from

29
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,919
Speaker 1: a Black Lady sketch show? You know her from Laser Wolf,

30
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: you know her from most of the memes on the internet.

31
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: She is so funny. Give it up for the great

32
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: Quinto Brunson and what's up continuing to be a rich

33
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 1: white auntie talking about boy? It's the only way to

34
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,399
Speaker 1: do it. Yeah. I like to put gin in there

35
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: and then I'm a London lady. It's beautiful. You need

36
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: to just try white clothes or truly they're good. I

37
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: drink them religiously. Now that's what I've become in quarantine.

38
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: Nice drink. Yeah. Is there a preferred white cloth flavor?

39
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,960
Speaker 1: Is there? I hate to say it, but I just

40
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:53,239
Speaker 1: tried the watermelon. I know, with an e er like,

41
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: I know, but it's really good. Why do we do

42
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: that to ourselves? Can you look into that on another

43
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: I do. It's an unfair thing we put on ourselves

44
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: to pretend as if watermelon flavor isn't the best flavor

45
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: and everything. Yeah, Dolly Ranchers, like, it's really good. I

46
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: don't know go through that. So I'm just trying to

47
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: give myself freedom, and I want to say that I

48
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: enjoyed the watermelon. That's right. Good for you. In quarantine,

49
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: you are liberating yourself in a different way. Sure you're

50
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:29,080
Speaker 1: stuck inside, but you can eat a watermelon. I didn't

51
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: eat a watermelon. You men eat a watermelon in your

52
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: window while your white neighbors watch. It's fine, it's delicious

53
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: for you. They're not judging. And once I get to

54
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: the center of the watermelon mayonade and you just keep going,

55
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: it's so yeah, I get what you're doing. I'm very

56
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 1: excited for your topic. Most of the topics that we

57
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: get on this show so far have been about murdering mayhem.

58
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: They've been very heavy sub objects that's in some way

59
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 1: lend themselves to sort of like scary, big conspiracies, and

60
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: I think your conspiracy theory plays itself into a lighter space.

61
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: There's certainly a less dramatic space. The topic you came

62
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: up with this conspiracy theory that you sent us was

63
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: my mama told me, if you put your purse on

64
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: the ground, you'll go broke. Yeah, yeah, I had. I've

65
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: heard it before, but I don't carry your purse, so

66
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: it it didn't mean anything. So I want to know

67
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: what it meant to you. Why is this important? Okay? Yeah,

68
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: So I remember when I started carrying my own purse,

69
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 1: maybe when I was about like twelve or thirteen years old,

70
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: just as a little cute limited to fashion statement. Um,

71
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: I used to like carried around and I have my

72
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: little dollars or whatever in there for getting water, ice

73
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: or like getting chips. So whenever I was about taking

74
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: from the corner store and I would put my purse

75
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: on the floor, like I'm saying it to you, like

76
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: put my person on the floor. But at the time

77
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: it didn't matter. But then yeah, you're like, in retrospect,

78
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: I was committing the greatest defend the greatest thing in

79
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: my mom, who isn't a big like superstitious person, especially

80
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: because they're like very religious and stay away from those

81
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: kinds of notions. She was just like, pick your purse

82
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: up off the floor. If you put your purse on

83
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 1: the floor, you'll go broke. You always have to hang

84
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: it off the back of your chair or keep it

85
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:36,480
Speaker 1: on your arm. Out little teeny capitalist me just like,

86
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: was that was the worst? Talking money? All right, you're

87
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 1: talking money. I'm listening. So I was like, let me

88
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: pick my purse up off the and it just always

89
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: stuck with me, and now to this very day. You

90
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: can ask anybody I carry my purse on me at

91
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: all times. I have a bad habit of caring you

92
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: on the stages with me, like I'm doing stand up

93
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: and all because I just never wanted to touch the

94
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 1: floor because is it's a superstition that's now embedded in

95
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: meow Okay, So I have so many questions, primarily you're

96
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: saying that your mother is not a superstitious person, that

97
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: in general she shies away from superstition. But that's when

98
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 1: she committed to Why do you think that is? You know,

99
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I never asked her that, but I

100
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 1: would assume it was just because money was tight, anderstitious

101
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: about anything. It was going to be about money. I'm

102
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 1: gonna play about my money, yeah, because like we don't

103
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: she doesn't believe in magic. We didn't celebrate Christmas, No Sanda, no,

104
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 1: none of that ship. So that's why, Yeah, I think

105
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: it's stuck with me even more because she didn't have

106
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: a bunch of like sayings like that floating around our house.

107
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: That was pretty much the only one. I was just like,

108
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,560
Speaker 1: all right, I better not you know, right, Yeah, I

109
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: feel like money for black people, and money especially for

110
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 1: people who are sort of like the head of I

111
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: imagine your mom in this space was like the head

112
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: of the household, sort of like a person needing to

113
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: manage a lot of people. It's not something you want

114
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,239
Speaker 1: to joke about or even run the risk of, like

115
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: doing something playful with money. It's like, not, this is essential.

116
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: So if there's some saying out there, even if it's

117
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: not necessarily something I normally subscribe to, I'm gonna buy

118
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: into it right now because definitely, And there were five

119
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: of us, five kids. My parents were Yeah, my parents

120
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: are you know, are together, they're married and stuff, and

121
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: we had a dual income household. But I just imagine

122
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: when you're taking care of five kids of varying ages

123
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: and trying to send in the college and stuff. Money

124
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: is important to hold onto no matter what name. And

125
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: still you know the being conscious about money into us too.

126
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: So yeah, I also come from five, although ain't no

127
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: two parent combination for me that we all over the place. Uh,

128
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: but a little bit of this, a little d of that.

129
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: We're all got to have the same daddy. We we

130
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: know each other. But that being said, I it blows

131
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 1: my mind all the time that at some point my

132
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: mom was having to feed four people, including herself and

133
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: then including her husband, yes, to make ends meet. Like

134
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: that's insane, links and it blows my mind. I have

135
00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: straight up just called my mom out the blue in

136
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: the middle of the night and she's like, what's wrong.

137
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,120
Speaker 1: Are you dying? I'm like, no, I need to know

138
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: how you took care of I need to know how

139
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: you made that math math because this don't work in mind,

140
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense. I'm trying to take the cat to

141
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: the vet, and I don't understand how you didn't that

142
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: with five human beings you loved and cared about, like

143
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: you had to keep us alive. I cannot I still

144
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: can't wrap my head. And that's the craziest thing. Like

145
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: you're talking about taking your cat to the vet. That's

146
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: an expense that you probably didn't prepare for, right, and

147
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: you have the means, hopefully to be able to keep

148
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: your head alive and do what you need to do

149
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: for that can But the idea that a child get

150
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: something in their body that they then have to go

151
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: to the hospital for and you just have to come

152
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 1: up with the money to make it work, it's insane,

153
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: Like you have to keep that human being alive. And yeah,

154
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: it's not the kind of cool to let them die,

155
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: even like you cannot joke about it at a party.

156
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: Have to do that. So I don't know how she

157
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 1: did it, So yeah, I mean, I guess that could

158
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 1: have gone into their money superstition. I remember one year

159
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 1: when I was a kid. I uh, I think I

160
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: was in kindergarten and my friends and I dare at

161
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: each other to stick legos up our noses as one

162
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: as ought to do. And uh, at age five, we

163
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: were sticking legos up our noses and I stuck one

164
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: up my nose too far I could not get it out, yes,

165
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: and then had to go to the nurse, who then

166
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 1: was like, I'm not legally allowed to get this out

167
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 1: or try to get this out, who then had to

168
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: call my mother, who then had to meet me at

169
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 1: the hospital so that they could remove this thing from

170
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: my nose, you know, through a surgery essentially, and the

171
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 1: amount of money that that probably costs my mom and

172
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: having to leave her job and pay for a hospital

173
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 1: visit because I'm an idiot, So your parents are worried

174
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: about money, which subsequently makes them believe in this potential

175
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory. And then you said something that's even more

176
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: interesting to me. You said that that you come from

177
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 1: a religious household. So they're pretty stringent. They're like hyper

178
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: religious or they're just like we go to church every Sunday,

179
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: kind of vibe very very very religious. You know, both

180
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: of my parents were in our still Jehoa's Witness And

181
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: it's a pretty strict. Uh. It's it's kind of the

182
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: meeting of like the Quakers and the Christians, a Baptist Christian.

183
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 1: So people don't know much about the religion, but to

184
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: give like a short answer, it's just pretty it's pretty strict.

185
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,920
Speaker 1: They don't celebrate any holidays. They do believe in the Bible,

186
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 1: which is interesting to me because if you look at

187
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: the Bible from a different lens, it's really just folklore,

188
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 1: entails and magical believing. You know, sorry, America, you heard

189
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 1: it here first, folks, Quintus said the Bible is made up.

190
00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:33,439
Speaker 1: You don't think it's true at all. If it weren't

191
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: for you, if it weren't your I just feel like

192
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 1: I need to and you're fine, But I do think

193
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: I think to your point that there is something really

194
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: fascinating about people who are religious saying I don't believe

195
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 1: in superstition, when in essence, we don't have any definitive

196
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: proof of any of these things, and they're allegories that

197
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: were that are meant to lead our lives and hopefully

198
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: make us become better people. But it's not rooted in truth.

199
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: I don't truly believe that. Like a bush lit itself

200
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 1: on fire and then talk to Moses, I think my

201
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 1: man got high and he thought about it. Maybe a

202
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: bush was a boy was huffing on some bush. And

203
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: then he was like, all right, I got some ideas,

204
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 1: maybe we shouldn't kill people. And everybody was like just

205
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: talking about loud, trying to say he has some good

206
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: weed that bush was sucking lit and talk to me. Um. Yeah,

207
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: they're they're pretty religious people, so they don't believe in

208
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: many um, you know, just superstitions. So it was strange

209
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:39,560
Speaker 1: to me that my mom believed in that one and

210
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 1: that it was put on to me. Yeah. I have

211
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: a cousin who was a former Jehovah's Witness and was

212
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 1: excommunicated because she got a divorce, and like that was

213
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: a big thing at least in that community for her. Um.

214
00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 1: But you know, the things that I've learned is sort

215
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 1: of that like, you don't get to make this about you, right,

216
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: Like a big part of Jehovah's Witness lifestyle is that

217
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: we're all trying to get ourselves into heaven and do

218
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: the work to get yourself into heaven because there are

219
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: limited seats, right, Like, yeah, there's like a thing it's

220
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 1: like there'll only be a hundred and forty four thousand

221
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: that will go to heaven. So at some point you

222
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,719
Speaker 1: just accept like you're not one of them, Like you

223
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: just settled for paradise on Earth after Armageddon and you're

224
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: trying to get there, right. So yeah, that's what it's

225
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: kind of built off. Of which is a whole other podcast.

226
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: Doesn't what's that guy's name, what's his name? He's he

227
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: had the show on the show about stand up on

228
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 1: HBO whatever. He has a whole religion podcast. I need

229
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 1: to go get on that and talk about being a

230
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: Jehovah's witness. You and Prince y'all doing it. Yeah, a

231
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 1: lot of us. Prince did untill the day he died. Right.

232
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: He joined later, which was so unique. It's fascinating me

233
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: when people joined later in their lives. Uh, Michael Jackson

234
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 1: started out as one, stop being one and then return

235
00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: to the faith. Prince became one later. Both Venus and

236
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 1: Serena had grown up Jehoah's witnesses, Donald Glover, it's unique.

237
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: It's a weird, yeah, weird place. I will say that

238
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: as far as religions go, I respect the way that

239
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 1: Jehovah's Witnesses move like it's a it's a commitment to

240
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: a thing that is often sort of like not demonstrated

241
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: in other forms of Christianity or even other religions where

242
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: it's like, no, I'm gonna go knock on doors, right

243
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: to go have these conversations with my My mom used

244
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: to sit down with some Jehovah's witnesses just to like

245
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: talk about the Bible, because they would show up every week.

246
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: And she was like, all right, cool, if y'all are here,

247
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: I may not join the church, but y'all are cool people,

248
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: and you know, you feel it's your obligation to save

249
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: me from you know, my nation. So let's do it.

250
00:14:54,520 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: Let's let's see what happens. Maybe gonna talk. I'm into it. Yeah,

251
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: it's um a religion with strong conviction. Um, But like

252
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 1: you know, it's not for everyone. But I don't have

253
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,600
Speaker 1: any regrets being brought up in it. I think it

254
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: kept me out of a lot of trouble as a

255
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,240
Speaker 1: young girl, but then I got older and decided it

256
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 1: wasn't for me. I think, just the way you can

257
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 1: do with any faith, and this is cool. It'll keep

258
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: you out of trouble. But like most religions, pretty much

259
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: all religions, it has this bullshit as well. Fair enough,

260
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: but so one of the things that I think is

261
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 1: fascinating in relation to your conspiracy theory is this question

262
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: of how money plays a factor in the world of

263
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 1: the Jehovah's witnesses. Right, Like my understanding and correct me

264
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 1: if I'm wrong, I very well could be. Is that

265
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 1: money isn't meant to be a big thing for y'all. Yeah,

266
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: as opposed to like some of the more flamboyant churches

267
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: in the black community. Yeah, um, you know, like there's

268
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: not a pastor who's driving a bents or anything like. Right,

269
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: the religion is really based in keeping things as simple

270
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: as possible. You go to work to get your money

271
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: that you need to feed your family and take care

272
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,400
Speaker 1: of you know, bills and stuff. But uh, it doesn't

273
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: push like people making a ton of money or being greedy.

274
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 1: It's actually the exact opposite. But it's like, don't take

275
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 1: part in like a capitalist society. Don't take part in

276
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: greed and needing to have so much money and the

277
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: most money with that though, you know, the less money

278
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:28,160
Speaker 1: you have, the harder it is to keep everything in order.

279
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: It right. That's and that's the weird like loophole that

280
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: nobody is really loophole isn't even the right word, but

281
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 1: sort of like caveat that nobody's mentioning is like it's

282
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: a lot easier to commit to this god if I

283
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: have at least a little bit of money, Man, I

284
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: love Jesus when I am broken. That's what kills me

285
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: all the time about people like like Kevin Hart, who

286
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: was like, I love Jesus. Like I bet you do.

287
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 1: Think you're rich. Every rich person loves Jesus. It's so

288
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 1: easy for you guys. But that being said, you know,

289
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 1: Jesus is for everyone's faith and religion is for everyone.

290
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 1: So um, you know, I think most Christian people have

291
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 1: this either um old school Jesus approached to money, which

292
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,240
Speaker 1: is like he said, like none of us need anything

293
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: and we want to be simple and help our neighbors,

294
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: or you have like the new school approach to money,

295
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: which is like get your bread because Jesus said. So

296
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: you know, I'm like, what person, just shine and go ahead,

297
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 1: go ahead, look at you. Now you're Jesus looking good baby.

298
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: So my parents subscribed to the former and they keep

299
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 1: it humble with money, but that means that they were

300
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,119
Speaker 1: pretty good about managing their money. That's just like a

301
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 1: practical man. But he's practical, keeps money in the bank,

302
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 1: he always kept the lights on and everything. Same thing

303
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: with my mom. So I think they just were like,

304
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: if we're going to live this lifestyle, we got to

305
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 1: make sure that money is managed. I'll say, yeah, of

306
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: your life siblings, are any of them now like still

307
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,400
Speaker 1: fully committed to the way that your parents were living

308
00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: or is everybody sort of like made concessions and sort

309
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 1: of moved in different directions As you can see, I'm

310
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 1: the complete opposite of what your it should be. But um, yeah,

311
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: I think I have one sibling who's still in the faith,

312
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: but she'll never hear this. She's pretty much made her

313
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: own version of what it means to becoming Jehovah's witness

314
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: to her, which I admire a lot, because I think

315
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 1: the faith could use a little bit of a software upgrade,

316
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 1: Like I think they become lenient on some things and

317
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 1: like coming to the new world. But that's not for

318
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 1: me to say. But you know, um, the rest of us,

319
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: my siblings, we all have gone our own different ways.

320
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 1: But you know, when you grow up that way, you

321
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: carry nuggets of your past and your faith with you.

322
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: You see it in a lot of religions where they're like, hey,

323
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 1: we're not allowed to eat pork or or or shellfish,

324
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: and it's like, okay, well, that's the remnant of a

325
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: time when eating pork was so dangerous that it might

326
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: actually kill you. It's not applicable now. But if that's

327
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: something that you want to carry with you because you

328
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: feel like, okay, well it's a dirtier meat, Like I'm

329
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 1: not here to judge that, go ahead, do your thing,

330
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: just don't rarin my pork sandwich. Speaking of that, being

331
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: from Philly, where the majority of black people are Muslim,

332
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: they don't eat pork, and so pork just isn't served

333
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,160
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia a lot, not even like the white racist areas,

334
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 1: like pork is just not the main expert. So I

335
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: grew up not eating pork and I still carry that

336
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: with me to this day. And that's not even religious,

337
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 1: that's just Philly. I love the idea that a bunch

338
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: of like those Philly assholes are just like they're saying

339
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,360
Speaker 1: the in word and they're keeping hellal the whole time.

340
00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: Both of those things can't be true, Like, fuck, you

341
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: get the funk out of our time. I'm gonna go

342
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: enjoy some nice to allow chicken. I can't work steaks.

343
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: It's true, it's and that that's something that's been carried

344
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,920
Speaker 1: with me. Um not as a religion, not it came

345
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 1: from religion, but it's a cultural practice that or I

346
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: don't really work down. Do you feel like and maybe

347
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: this is a tough question for you to answer, but

348
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: you're a Philly girl, you know Philly. Well, do you

349
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 1: feel like Philly is a superstitious town? Is there a

350
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 1: lot of superstition sort of lingering in the city. That's

351
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: a good question, Thank you. I thought of it myself.

352
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: Did you think of that just now? Just now? I

353
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 1: don't have any paper at all. That's a good question.

354
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 1: I think that it might be. I've never given it

355
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 1: full thought, but now that you've asked me that, Um, well,

356
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: you guys are huge on sports. I was about to

357
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 1: say that, so huge sports town. And then besides that,

358
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: Philadelphia really is so diverse, And I didn't realize it

359
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: until left Philly how many different people were packed into

360
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: one area. I mean as a huge Black, White, Hispanic

361
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 1: and Asian community, like big communities. And uh not only that,

362
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: like Philly had one of the first lgbt Q towns

363
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 1: in the country. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, it's crazy,

364
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 1: and I didn't know that until I got older. But

365
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: like it was just a way of life there, um

366
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 1: and so that and then plus all the different religions,

367
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 1: huge Muslim population, huge Catholic and Christian, huge Jewish population,

368
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: And so I think because of that, just like I

369
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: said with the pork thing, I don't even know how

370
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 1: many things are floating through the air that are superstitions

371
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: from different cultures, Like you know what I mean, I

372
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: definitely have a lot of sports to how much of

373
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: the things that you're growing up with are just something

374
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: that came from your home or because it was like

375
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 1: weirdly connected to like the way that the Phillies were

376
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: gonna win the World Series this year kind of thing. Yeah,

377
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 1: I have no idea, um what I thought it was

378
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: weird when I went to college in Philly. You know,

379
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 1: everybody else came to Temple Um and other black people

380
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: were like eating pork. I just was like, I just

381
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: thought this was the thing that black people didn't do.

382
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 1: But that was the thing that you're just sitting there, like,

383
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: look at all these sellouts really just like the Devil

384
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: Worshipers everything on one of y'allss coons. All right, this

385
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: is great, Well we're gonna take a break. We're gonna

386
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 1: come back with more Quinta Brunson and more. My mama

387
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 1: told me and we are back. Yeah, we're a year

388
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: with more Quinta brun and more of my mama told me,

389
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 1: and we are talking about her crazy, crazy conspiracy theory

390
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: that if you put your purse on the ground, you

391
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:13,479
Speaker 1: will in fact go broke. And so I, Quenta uh,

392
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: did some research regarding your topic, regarding your conspiracy theory,

393
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: and I myself, based on the research that I've gathered,

394
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: have sort of formed my own conspiracy theory that I

395
00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: want us to get into. And I'm gonna throw it

396
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: out here now. I want your initial thoughts and then

397
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 1: we will unpack everything that I'm saying. But I do

398
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,880
Speaker 1: believe based on everything that I've unpacked, and this will

399
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: be jarring for all of us. I truly believe that

400
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: this conspiracy theory is the workings of the white man

401
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: and and capitalism. This is just the white man trying

402
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 1: to steal money out of poor people's pockets. Thoughts I

403
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,640
Speaker 1: could believe, didn't I could believe it, didn't I say

404
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 1: in the beginning, little all capitalistm he was like, oh

405
00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 1: my god, my money. You know, so makes sense? Yeah, okay,

406
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: all right, you're not hating it so far. I'm glad

407
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: to hear it. Because I've got a lot to tell you.

408
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: So apparently the original sort of idea of this came

409
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: out of function. You've heard of function? Yeah, so I

410
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: only knew function. Yeah, that's my cousin. Yes, okay, So

411
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: so functual, you know, is the ancient sort of Chinese

412
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 1: UH practice, I guess, or sort of pseudo science of

413
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 1: the way that you manipulate energy. I always knew it

414
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 1: as like placement of furniture in the room. That's what

415
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,040
Speaker 1: I knew. Yeah. Yeah, so apparently it's more than that

416
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: and figured and we just picked the part that we're like,

417
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,159
Speaker 1: we're like, all right, I'll move my couch so we

418
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 1: can say, ye, right now, you didn't do that. It

419
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 1: actually is super complicated and require tires you to like

420
00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: analyze all these elements and sort of like harmonize all

421
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: these different parts of your environment. But beyond that, a

422
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 1: part of functional uh is this thing where they basically

423
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 1: said a person on the floor is money out the door.

424
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: And part of where that came from for them was

425
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: this idea that if you put your purse on the floor,

426
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 1: if you put your money on the ground, you're not

427
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 1: taking your money your wealth. Seriously, you're treating it as

428
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: like a piece of ship, So you're gonna lose your

429
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: money like a piece of ship. M okay because of

430
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 1: the floor, Like basically it's like the floor represents lack

431
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 1: of caring. Is that okay? Yeah, anything on the floor

432
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:44,960
Speaker 1: is in essence you saying you don't care about it,

433
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: which makes sense, right, Like that's where that's where we

434
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 1: walk with our feet, that's where dark gathers. It's where

435
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: the things that we consider to be the lowest tend

436
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 1: to live. So you put your money down there, you

437
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: obviously don't care about it. And so that evolves right

438
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: into like this thing where it sort of gets passed

439
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 1: down sort of like what you were saying about Philly,

440
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: that like other cultures pick it up in other places

441
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 1: start to take this idea seriously and they carry it

442
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 1: all the way to like you know, Old English people

443
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: who begin to spread it like an old wives tale.

444
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,920
Speaker 1: They're sort of like spreading this legend of like if

445
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: you put your money there, you're a bad person whatever whatever, um.

446
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: And that expands and and obviously it starts off as

447
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: just sort of like a share In Old English, they

448
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: didn't have it written down, so they just said it

449
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 1: out loud and then it later becomes like a written word. Right,

450
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 1: all this to be said that in all the research

451
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: that I did, nearly everything that I uncovered, it all

452
00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 1: starts with function, but then it ends with like advertisements

453
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: for purses or four bags or for resources related to bags,

454
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yeah, okay, so it really

455
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,399
Speaker 1: has led to a ploy to sell a nicer purse,

456
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 1: so that the night on the floor and so all

457
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 1: I'm reading all these things that like I'm asking, you know, Google,

458
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 1: where does this come from? And they're like, well, it

459
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 1: comes from fungi. But it makes sense now because bags,

460
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 1: like as you well know, an expensive bag nowadays sometimes

461
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: can sell for sixty three of its value. Absolutely, and

462
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: you know it's funny. But okay, let me like I

463
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: was gonna say it's funny about that is as I

464
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: got older, I'm not I'm not a big money spender.

465
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,720
Speaker 1: That's not like my thing, you know me. I'm not

466
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: like a big flashy person. But one thing I both

467
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 1: spend money on is a purse. Yes, because I think subconsciously,

468
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,880
Speaker 1: if my purse is very nice, I won't be tempted

469
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 1: to put it on the floor. So if I buy myself.

470
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: I do like one of the first big purchases I

471
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: made when I started like making a good amount of

472
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: money was a Gucci purse And it didn't even go

473
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 1: with anything else I have because I'm just not a

474
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, chuck out as an eye store,

475
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 1: Like why you got a Guccie person a white t on?

476
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: This ain't adding up your shirt. But it helped me

477
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: to not put the purse on the floor. It gave

478
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: me a reminder to be like, this is too nice

479
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: to go on the floor. So no matter what, I

480
00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: would make sure that that purse was was never on

481
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: the floor. So that's interesting exactly, so these purses, these

482
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: valuable items that you're buying are now even if they

483
00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 1: are well kept, they said, you know, an expensive bag,

484
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 1: meaning like a bag from a nice place but not

485
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 1: necessarily one of the highest end bags, is like worth

486
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: up to sixty three percent of its value if you

487
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: were to resell it on all of these places. Right,

488
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: but then this is a crazy part the limited edition bag.

489
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: So a bag like the one you bought, which is

490
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: probably it's Gucci, they're probably not making any more of those,

491
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,640
Speaker 1: which means that like if you decided to sell it today.

492
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: It actually could be sold for like exponentially more than

493
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: you pay for it. Yeah, absolutely, but only if you

494
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 1: keep it pristine and clean and all that stuff. And

495
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: so in unpacking this, I'm like, oh, that's dope. Well

496
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 1: that makes sense because money, you literally are putting money

497
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: on the floor. You're literally risking potential wealth in getting

498
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 1: this thing dirty. But then I'm starting to think, but

499
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: who owns all this ship? You know what I mean?

500
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 1: Who gets paid from Gucci? The White Devil? Oh my god,

501
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 1: that's how they get. The White Devil gets you. And

502
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 1: he comes in and he he owns Gucci, he owns

503
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: Louis Vutton, he owns the other ones that I don't know. Quenta,

504
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 1: is this how most of you? Is? This? Almost conspiracies?

505
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: And well this is where I start. And then I

506
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: stay awake all night in a rage. Got it, gotta

507
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 1: get it? Um, this is not unbelievable to me. I mean,

508
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: I think most things dealing with materialism all lead there.

509
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,080
Speaker 1: So in other areas I'm so like aware of it

510
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: and active against it. But the bad thing is one

511
00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: I can't shape but here, and I don't think you

512
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: have to, because you can still come up in this.

513
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,600
Speaker 1: But I'm starting to see the little signs, right. So

514
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,719
Speaker 1: I looked up all these like resale options for bags,

515
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 1: and so there's places like Rule La La and the

516
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 1: Real Real and re Bag and they all sell your

517
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: bags potentially and you can sell Oh, I did all

518
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: my research. I know about all these places. It's funny

519
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 1: for you to say, like, rude, real this was in

520
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:43,840
Speaker 1: the real real right before. Is a real real good?

521
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: I have no idea real real is good. They Yeah,

522
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 1: they resell very expensive items, that's what they do. So,

523
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: like they resell Gucci and Louis and um, you know

524
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 1: any other crazy brand you can think of. Yeah, and

525
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 1: I assume they take a commission of some kind. Yeah,

526
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, exactly, some super expensive thrift store. Yeah.

527
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: So okay, so let's say you want to sell the

528
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 1: thing on the real reel. But even if you don't

529
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 1: want to sell the thing on the real road, when

530
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: you go to look up how can I resell my bag,

531
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 1: what you end up finding is that like all these

532
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: other different like options for selling stuff pop up. So

533
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 1: like you see things like bag hooks or these non

534
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: alcoholic wipes to keep your leather nice and soft and clean.

535
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: And bags to put around the bag so that your

536
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 1: bag never has to come in contact with the world,

537
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: even though it probably looks ridiculous. Yeah, like, what are

538
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 1: we doing? Nothing kills me more than covers for things

539
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: like rembly. There was a point when people started wearing

540
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:49,120
Speaker 1: shoe covers on their shoes. Yes, we went to six

541
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 1: Flags Great America for our prom after prom thing, I

542
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 1: think most people do some version of that. And literally

543
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: everybody I knew had plastic bag on their new sneakers

544
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,959
Speaker 1: because they rained the night before and they didn't want

545
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 1: to get like their white air force is dirty. It's like, hey, bro,

546
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: we're wearing trash on our feet. It isn't better, Like

547
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: we all look like assholes to protect shoes that you

548
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: can't none of us can see. I don't know if

549
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,240
Speaker 1: you're fresh or not. You're wearing trash. It deeply bothers me.

550
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: For for our people, it deeply bothers me. We'll move on,

551
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 1: and we'll move on, and I'm no better because I tried.

552
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 1: My heart is to keep my bags pristine, so I

553
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: get it. Sure, we're all fighting a hard fight right now.

554
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:38,440
Speaker 1: I think just loving each other and trying to love

555
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 1: our things while simultaneously holding ourselves accountable for our commitment

556
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 1: to capitalism. It's weird. It's too much. Um Okay, So

557
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,760
Speaker 1: things like like uh, like the bags and the purse

558
00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: clips and the wipes, they're all being sold to you

559
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,680
Speaker 1: as a way of keeping this bag clean. And so

560
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 1: a part of me starts to ask, well it, I

561
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 1: asked myself, and now I'm asking you, does it actually

562
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: calculate out to be a fair resale that once I

563
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: give out my commission, once I've spent all this money

564
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: on clips and bags and things to keep my bag precious,

565
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 1: if I am I just breaking even when I give

566
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,480
Speaker 1: Gucci back the bag that they sold to me in

567
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: the first place. To answer your question, I think you

568
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: barely break even. My solution to that is something I'm

569
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: pretty passionate about. I can't believe I have the opportunity

570
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: to talk about this right now. Hold on, I'm excited.

571
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: Hold on, Talk that talk. This is a fun segment

572
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna throw too, called talk that Talk. I'm gonna

573
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: give you thirty seconds to talk that talk. Whatever it

574
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,880
Speaker 1: is you want to talk about, then go crazy. I

575
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 1: want to talk about sustainable fashion and how we should

576
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 1: buy better clothes so that they last us for longer

577
00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: periods in our lives. They should be simple clothing, not

578
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: bad based clothing that you can wear when you turn

579
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 1: in twenty or when you turn forty. The kind of

580
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: clothes you see people like Eric Kabad where you're like,

581
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 1: how does she always look so cool? Well, Eric has

582
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 1: had like the same half for the past twenty years.

583
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: You develop your own style. You buy sustainable clothing that

584
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: can last forever. You don't make a plan to resell it.

585
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: You make a plan to keep it. It saves you

586
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,720
Speaker 1: money in the long run, and it saves the environment.

587
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 1: Talk that talk that compute to the talk that talk

588
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: quin sustainable fashion. Motherfucker's stop buying all these trendy clothes

589
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: and buy some ship you could commit to for twenty years,

590
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:43,600
Speaker 1: like Ericaba do marry it. Yeah, Thankston got married. It

591
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,800
Speaker 1: can be done done. I'm treating your clothes like hose

592
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 1: and stop. I love that. Stop treating your hose like

593
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: no your clothes and vice versa. Treat these homes with

594
00:34:56,680 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: respect to like sustainable. You could call her again and

595
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: again for another twenty years. That's what I did with

596
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: my wife. That's beautiful. I remember when y'all said that

597
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 1: during your vows, I cried, you are a tasteful hat

598
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:23,959
Speaker 1: that will always always be ready to wear. That's great. Um, yeah,

599
00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: that's how I feel about that. And I think sustainable

600
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:29,279
Speaker 1: fashion is like the answer to that and trying to

601
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:35,880
Speaker 1: keep our stuff. Yes, I like that. Man. Here's here's

602
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 1: something that I was thinking about as I was doing

603
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,280
Speaker 1: the research, and this this I guess maybe it aligns

604
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 1: with some of the things that I was talking about.

605
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 1: What do you think about Drake buying up all these

606
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:50,800
Speaker 1: Valenciaga bags and then giving them to women as a

607
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 1: precious gift. Drake is such a complicated subject for me. Um,

608
00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 1: I love Drake, big fan, like who Well, a lot

609
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: of people aren't, but I think they're just lying to themselves.

610
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,320
Speaker 1: Drink is like ice cream at this point, Like you

611
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:09,760
Speaker 1: don't you it's ice cream. You like it. Stop pretending

612
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 1: you don't like it. You may not want to eat

613
00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:13,320
Speaker 1: it all the time, but you know, if you go

614
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:15,920
Speaker 1: you want some ice cream, I get it. You. Your

615
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,200
Speaker 1: tummy hurts sometimes afterwards, but it's not because it didn't

616
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,759
Speaker 1: taste good. It's because you got hang ups that you

617
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: gotta lactose in tolerant, but you know it's still good.

618
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,800
Speaker 1: And then talk ful about Drake with him buying the

619
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,959
Speaker 1: women bags. I've always had this thought with Drake where

620
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 1: he treats the woman who he sleeps with with whatever

621
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: they want, and I like that for them. I know

622
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,720
Speaker 1: for a fact I knew like a girl that dated

623
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 1: Drake and he treated her like a princess in that moment,

624
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. No, I think Drake's made

625
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: it like pretty clear like he's not looking to wife

626
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 1: any of these women. And if you're like signing up

627
00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 1: for that and you know what you're getting, then I

628
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 1: don't see a problem with it. Right, If there's an

629
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 1: unfair expectation being said that Drake's like telling all these

630
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,839
Speaker 1: women he's going to marry them, then okay, maybe it's

631
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: a problem. But if he's not saying that and he's

632
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 1: like what do you want and she's like a person,

633
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: he's like I got you, or he's like, here's the

634
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,320
Speaker 1: Valenciaga bag, just period, just because as I got it

635
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: and it's available to you. So while that goes against

636
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 1: everything I just said, well not really. If those girls

637
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 1: keep those they keep those backs, well I think what

638
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 1: he's doing is offering them investment, much like much like

639
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: a parachute package for a person being fired from a

640
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: job that you know, they give you that golden parachute

641
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: where they say like, hey, you know, unfortunately we gotta

642
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: let you go. But here's here's a little severance. Valencia

643
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 1: took in there too. That's the that's the wallet. By

644
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: the way, you can take as many sick days as

645
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 1: you want. Now, every percent yours. But no, I think

646
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 1: Drake is essentially offering people, maybe one of the most

647
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 1: valuable severance packages that you can offer someone in a relationship,

648
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 1: and he gives it to you up front. He's like,

649
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 1: here's a severance package because this is going to end.

650
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking you straight up. I ain't committed to you,

651
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: baby girl, but you don't have to commit to me.

652
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: Commit to this Valenciaga apparently they're like, uh, specially made right.

653
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,759
Speaker 1: I don't know enough. The idea is that most of them,

654
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 1: they're all one of a kind, Like, well, I don't know.

655
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,359
Speaker 1: That's a whole different subject. So why don't we talking

656
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 1: about this stuff? Okay? What Quinta is really trying to

657
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 1: fight the idea of like promoting Valenciaga materials on this

658
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,320
Speaker 1: podcast where I clearly don't know what the funk it is.

659
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: My listeners aren't gonna be hard for me. You've You've

660
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: hit a really deep corner of me that really enjoys

661
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 1: brand names but want to fight against so hard. It's

662
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: this is a conundrum for me. You know, I think

663
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,239
Speaker 1: if we're in agreement, I think we've discovered that the

664
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,359
Speaker 1: white man is behind all of that urge, and uh,

665
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: the only thing we can do is try to identify

666
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,840
Speaker 1: it and fight it at every corner. Thanks Linkston, it

667
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: feels good to always blame it on the way. Listen.

668
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:15,320
Speaker 1: If I've learned anything, and I grew up with a

669
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,439
Speaker 1: white father, and what I learned very quickly was it's

670
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 1: the white man's fault. I would wake up every day

671
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: and I would say, Daddy, I've got shipped to talk

672
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: to you about. And it ain't got nothing to do

673
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,279
Speaker 1: with me. Your poor father. Yeah, he's been through a lot.

674
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,799
Speaker 1: He raised two black boys and uh, both of them

675
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 1: are idiots. He was really nice. It's a beautiful man.

676
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: Not a big talker. He wouldn't do the podcast, but

677
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 1: a beautiful man. All Right, We're gonna take one more

678
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 1: break and We'll be back with more, my mama told me.

679
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 1: And we are back. Yeah, we're back with more, a

680
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: quintum person. We're back with my mama told me. We're

681
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: still talking about persons on the ground and how they

682
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: make you go broke. Did you hear that it would

683
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 1: make you go broke or you won't have any money period,

684
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,919
Speaker 1: make you go broke. I think it was specifically, yeah,

685
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,759
Speaker 1: you'll go broke. That in theory you have money now,

686
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: and then somebody would come in and snatch your ship

687
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 1: away because your person was on the ground. You know,

688
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:31,360
Speaker 1: It's funny. I never looked at it like that. I

689
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,399
Speaker 1: looked at it as your finances would go out of order.

690
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: I looked at it like you'll have financial disaster, like um,

691
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 1: somehow your funds. I'm all about like money management. I

692
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,760
Speaker 1: get that from my dad. So to me, it fred

693
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 1: is like your funds will magically get mismanaged. You won't

694
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: be able to put them back together in in a

695
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:56,880
Speaker 1: in a in a quick order. You know. Yeah, I

696
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,840
Speaker 1: get that. It's not so much of like, oh you

697
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,920
Speaker 1: are immediately about to lose everything, but just sort of

698
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,279
Speaker 1: your life will unwind because you are mismanaging. Yes, yes,

699
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 1: some big on management like, like, I think that's also

700
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:14,240
Speaker 1: my view of money to money. To a lot of people,

701
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:17,600
Speaker 1: there's this view that like you magically have a lot

702
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: of it, or you magically don't. And I just never

703
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,720
Speaker 1: looked at it that way. It was either a saving

704
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 1: thing or you manage what you have to get more

705
00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 1: or manage it to have what you need. So to me,

706
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 1: it always read is like, oh, your management will mess

707
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 1: up your money. That okay, you are responsible for your money,

708
00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 1: do the right thing with it. Yes, hell yeah. I

709
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: think similarly I was taught the same thing that like,

710
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,880
Speaker 1: you can control this. This isn't like some scary monster

711
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: above you that is eating away at your pockets. Like

712
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 1: you're in charge. Take care of that ship, or don't

713
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: and stuffer the consequence. It's kind to do. I think

714
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: that's something I've learned from talking to you in the past,

715
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: just as friends and and not necessarily about money, but

716
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,319
Speaker 1: our careers. How you've always i think looked at your

717
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 1: career is similar to how I look at it, where

718
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 1: we're very much uh in charge of things, and that

719
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 1: things are just happening to us, but that we're in

720
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,799
Speaker 1: charge of how our careers go and how we take

721
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 1: our time to do what we would like to do

722
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:29,479
Speaker 1: in our careers. Yeah, I think and maybe you feel

723
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,560
Speaker 1: the same way. I think part of the reason that

724
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: I tend to lean on that is not because I

725
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 1: actually always feel like I'm in control, but I think

726
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:41,399
Speaker 1: some of it is like an assertion of dominance over

727
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,880
Speaker 1: a thing that otherwise feels like it's just taking you

728
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 1: the funk out. You know what I mean that, Like,

729
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:50,240
Speaker 1: if you sit there and go like the Hollywood Monster

730
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: is in charge of everything that's happening to me, then

731
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: I'm just what am I doing? But if I say, like, no,

732
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: I'm in charge, I'm putting my hands all the wheel

733
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 1: and Terence Tower just saying say it, say it, and

734
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 1: I'm I'm in charge. Yes, I think we kind of

735
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:06,839
Speaker 1: look at it the same way. We know that we're

736
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 1: not in charge. You're not in charge of anything in life,

737
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:11,640
Speaker 1: but I'd like to be able to have to be Like,

738
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 1: just because our careers are crazy, doesn't mean that we

739
00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: don't have any semblance of control over where we stand

740
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:20,480
Speaker 1: in this crazy career. Yeah. I like that. All right,

741
00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,799
Speaker 1: let's play a game. You're down to play a game? Yeah,

742
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 1: I'm excited this is a fun game that I like

743
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:31,239
Speaker 1: to call white lies. You're ugly, You're disgusting. I'm gonna

744
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 1: kill you. Give me two hell yeah, white Lies. It's

745
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 1: a beautiful game. In this game, I'm sorry, but you

746
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 1: need to tell me when dr Fields, I don't do

747
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:48,959
Speaker 1: the actual research. I just find things that people say

748
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:53,759
Speaker 1: and use them for snippets for my own pleasures and enjoyment. Okay,

749
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 1: I'll look that up after. I'm a rascal. So in

750
00:43:57,400 --> 00:43:59,879
Speaker 1: this game White Lies, you and I were gonna You're

751
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:04,839
Speaker 1: specifically going to review a more traditional white conspiracy theory, right,

752
00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 1: a conspiracy theory that is essentially a widely held belief

753
00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 1: in the white community. And then I'm going to ask

754
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 1: you to explore why this conspiracy theory is so important

755
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,320
Speaker 1: to white people. Why do they keep this going, What

756
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:23,919
Speaker 1: are they trying to accomplish? What are those sneaky motherfucker's

757
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 1: up to get it? Okay, Gaalaine Maxwell, She's in the news.

758
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,800
Speaker 1: This feels very poignant. She might be dead by the

759
00:44:31,840 --> 00:44:35,040
Speaker 1: time this podcast comes out, but who knows. But she's

760
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,240
Speaker 1: in the news right now because obviously she's been arrested

761
00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 1: and now they're claiming that she might be on suicide watch,

762
00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,359
Speaker 1: and everybody's going crazy because they want to know if

763
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 1: she's actually on suicide watch or if she is in

764
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,400
Speaker 1: fact being once again sort of taken out by this

765
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 1: you know, higher power. And so my question for you,

766
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: the white lie that I would love for you to unpack,

767
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:02,280
Speaker 1: is why do white people care so much if Jeffrey

768
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:06,840
Speaker 1: Epstein killed himself. I think they care so much because

769
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:13,360
Speaker 1: they need unbridled proof that Trump is a monster, and

770
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,160
Speaker 1: I think we just know, so it's not that important

771
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 1: to us, Like it's more of a of course, of

772
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: course he had them killed, Like it's not really that Also,

773
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:28,000
Speaker 1: who fucking cares? These are all horrible people anyway, Like

774
00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 1: I don't care he's dead, like good written. I understand

775
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 1: that it makes it harder for Trump to get caught,

776
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 1: but I often look at the news and just like

777
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,840
Speaker 1: white liberal Twitter, like you guys are worried about the

778
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:43,640
Speaker 1: wrong things, like people are dying, people are out food

779
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:45,759
Speaker 1: and water right now, I really don't as far as

780
00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:47,759
Speaker 1: I'm concerned. Those are more rich people problems to me.

781
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 1: They don't really affect my day to day Okay, hell yeah, yeah.

782
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: It feels in a lot of ways like they're committed

783
00:45:54,680 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 1: to it. I like what you're saying about. They need

784
00:45:57,000 --> 00:46:01,280
Speaker 1: definitive proof that these people, be Trump or the Clintons

785
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 1: or whoever else that they're accusing of having had him murdered,

786
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,640
Speaker 1: are in fact bad people when black people are just like, no,

787
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 1: we knew, Yeah, but we knew y'all were bad whether

788
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:16,160
Speaker 1: you killed this man or not. This does not offer

789
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 1: definitive proof for us at all. All it offers is

790
00:46:19,239 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 1: like one more notch on your belt of like bad,

791
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,959
Speaker 1: you did right. And I feel like they keep giving

792
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,480
Speaker 1: that to Trump, like it's always like, oh, he did

793
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 1: this again, and it's like how many times does he

794
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 1: have to do things for? You guys? Know, he's pretty

795
00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 1: clear about it, like he's not hiding it. I'm starting

796
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: to think this guy is racist and it's like why,

797
00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:42,440
Speaker 1: But it's even the people who like know he's racist.

798
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 1: It's like the people, you guys, people who suck usually

799
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,319
Speaker 1: suck in every arena. I wouldn't put it past him

800
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:53,399
Speaker 1: to also be dabbling and fucking little kids, Like it's

801
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:57,960
Speaker 1: not right, it doesn't have a cut off. Yeah, I'm

802
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 1: wanting to put a kid in a cage. You're definitely

803
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 1: willing to eat a little kid out. You know, I'm

804
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,920
Speaker 1: just saying annoying, but no, you're right, but true though,

805
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,239
Speaker 1: it's true, like that man is a monster in human form.

806
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 1: So I like don't understand when people are surprised by

807
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 1: new monstrous information about him. But I think they also

808
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:19,839
Speaker 1: just feel like, if you get the pedophile thing, that's

809
00:47:19,880 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 1: what will prove it to the conservatives. And it's like, no,

810
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:25,600
Speaker 1: the conservatives are in a cult, the Trumpers are. You

811
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,279
Speaker 1: can't tell them anything about Trump that will change their minds.

812
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:30,600
Speaker 1: They'll make up a used I think I also get

813
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 1: scared that like this sort of conspiracy theory train that

814
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:37,320
Speaker 1: I think a lot of white people have gone on

815
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,640
Speaker 1: has now split where it's not just conservative and liberal,

816
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 1: it's like now different tracks of both that have split

817
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,840
Speaker 1: even more. And so like, even if we get to

818
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 1: the point where we prove that these people are in

819
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 1: fact pedophiles, are are in fact the human garbage that

820
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,839
Speaker 1: they seem to be, it's not like that's gonna bring

821
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 1: us closer together. It's just gonna drive people further into

822
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: the ship. They already think it's true that information is

823
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 1: only useful and maybe um changing the minds of the

824
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:12,480
Speaker 1: Trumpers who are not the Trump people, are not Conservatives,

825
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 1: they're not Republicans, they are different tear of people who

826
00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:21,359
Speaker 1: are in the middle of like the Republican conservative thing,

827
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: and like that information is not going to convince him,

828
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 1: Like his main fan base is going out and voting

829
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: for him in November, is not going to be convinced

830
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:32,239
Speaker 1: by finding out that he's a pedipal, don't They don't care.

831
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,120
Speaker 1: Those are the people who are in the cult, not

832
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 1: the Conservatives, not the Republicans, but them, and then the

833
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 1: other ones who are just still voting for him are

834
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:44,400
Speaker 1: just completely going to hell, you know, because those are

835
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 1: the ones turning a blind eye. And it's just like, okay, well, yeah,

836
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:49,839
Speaker 1: I think you know, at the end of the day,

837
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:53,279
Speaker 1: it's it's people have picked their sides and so it

838
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:56,279
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter what you discover in all of this,

839
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,000
Speaker 1: which is part of why it's so fascinating that people

840
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,240
Speaker 1: are like so pashing it about proving that Jeffrey Epstein

841
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: didn't kill himself. He's like, who are you trying to convince? Bro,

842
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 1: Like nobody's going to become a better person by the

843
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,879
Speaker 1: revelation that comes out of this, and it's not gonna matter.

844
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: It makes no difference. It's not gonna matter. Even if

845
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: they find out the Trump today, He's not going to

846
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: jail for that. He's not He's not gonna allow himself to.

847
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,880
Speaker 1: So it's just like, I don't really know the importance

848
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,960
Speaker 1: in that. Just go go with your gut that he's

849
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 1: just bad and keep moving off of that. I think

850
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,320
Speaker 1: the less attention we give to all of these things,

851
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 1: the that's the best we can do that even you

852
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: know we I'm sure you're tracking the journey of Kanye

853
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:45,439
Speaker 1: and his presidency run. And like I refused to even

854
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,359
Speaker 1: read the article. I was like, I can't go here

855
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: with I was a kid, you know what I mean?

856
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 1: When I fell in love with you. We have to

857
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:58,320
Speaker 1: stop giving him attention. Yes, he can't be a thing anymore.

858
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,320
Speaker 1: We just have to sit and decide that this is

859
00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 1: just you are not a thing. I'm good. We ain't

860
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,600
Speaker 1: it no more. You know what we did with people

861
00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 1: like Chingy or like how we just decided as a culture,

862
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: you were no longer relevant. Your your opinions pull no

863
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:19,400
Speaker 1: weight or anything. Uh, it was good while we knew you.

864
00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 1: We need to do that with he who shall not

865
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 1: be named like, I think we have to stop allowing

866
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 1: that person to have the weight. I love that campaign speech.

867
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:35,480
Speaker 1: Treat Kanye like chingy. Take it to the inner webs.

868
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 1: Kanye is chingy at this point as far as I'm concerned.

869
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:40,799
Speaker 1: You know, what I mean is that I don't care.

870
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:45,600
Speaker 1: I'm here. I hope Hope is thriving, but I'm not.

871
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:48,359
Speaker 1: I am not going to root for him, nor am

872
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,560
Speaker 1: I going to root against him. But I am not

873
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:53,400
Speaker 1: giving Changy attention even if he comes out with a

874
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:58,880
Speaker 1: brand new chicken head. And that's how I feel, and

875
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 1: I feel like we need to do that with that person,

876
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:06,439
Speaker 1: and I just it's good I refew at this point,

877
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 1: I just I just can't even gave him Baltimore. I

878
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:14,680
Speaker 1: love it because that's what he is. Look at this

879
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:19,399
Speaker 1: and look at what's happening right now, Like you can't

880
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 1: summon him. You can't. It's a weird power. I think.

881
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:29,399
Speaker 1: What's fascinating about he who shall not be named uh

882
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: is he's one of the first figures. And this is

883
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 1: a part of him that I do I am fascinated

884
00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:38,240
Speaker 1: with in slightly respect, is he's one of the first

885
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:43,880
Speaker 1: black people in history who have upset almost literally every

886
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:49,920
Speaker 1: faction of white America and still thrives as like he

887
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,239
Speaker 1: didn't become a new thing, you know what I mean,

888
00:51:52,360 --> 00:51:56,560
Speaker 1: Like he's man the crazy he was and just amped

889
00:51:56,600 --> 00:52:00,319
Speaker 1: it up as he went along and somehow has has

890
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:04,319
Speaker 1: not been broken in any way. Well yeah, I mean

891
00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:07,880
Speaker 1: it depends on how you look at the world and entertainment,

892
00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 1: and I include politics and entertainment. It is now. But

893
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:15,719
Speaker 1: I think for people who even quote unquote love him,

894
00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 1: like I watch people talk about him in his legendary

895
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:21,480
Speaker 1: status or like this is cool, blah blah blah. They

896
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: love the spectacle of him, and I think, like that's

897
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:29,280
Speaker 1: the danger in that zone is once you give yourself

898
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:33,800
Speaker 1: up to just be a spectacle to people, you're not

899
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:37,000
Speaker 1: like living a full life anymore. You're not living um

900
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,440
Speaker 1: in connection with the other human beings on on the ground,

901
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,400
Speaker 1: because it's it's not you know, I think you and

902
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,360
Speaker 1: I are pretty much I guess we're I wouldn't consider

903
00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:49,040
Speaker 1: myself liberal. I think I'm more like radical leading liberal,

904
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: and I feel like you're probably in the same boat.

905
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 1: But I don't feel like that person is in touch

906
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,080
Speaker 1: with things, and now they don't have the ability to

907
00:52:59,160 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 1: be anymore. So it's hard for me to give them

908
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,360
Speaker 1: any energy one. I think to your point, it's not human.

909
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 1: It's sort of like and there's no more ability to

910
00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:12,279
