When you 164 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: have problems, you're married, you'll have to work through it. 165 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: It's not like you can say I'm out on one. 166 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: Y'all have to work through it. You're you're married, so 167 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: there's gonna be good times bad time. But if you're 168 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: not married and somebody gets on your nerves, you could 169 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: just be like, you know what, I don't want to 170 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: deal with I'm out. So it doesn't make the relationship 171 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,199 Speaker 1: as strong because there's nothing binding to you, because it's 172 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 1: almost like I could be out when I want to 173 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: be out right. But for a lot of people, they'll 174 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: say that the reason that they don't just want to 175 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,760 Speaker 1: be out is because it's a business agreement. There's paperwork 176 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: between the two of you. So if I get out now, 177 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,719 Speaker 1: I gotta deal with flitting assets or everything like that, 178 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: or dealing with lawyers and paperwork, and people don't want 179 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: to do that. So it's like, is it a union 180 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 1: of love and like Charlotte Magne just said, tell death 181 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: do us part? Or is it a piece of paper 182 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 1: that's binding to people. I always say marriage is really 183 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 1: easy to get in and really hard to get out. 184 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,599 Speaker 1: It's hard to get out, and people don't really understand that. 185 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 1: When you're dealing with lawyers and what you have to 186 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 1: pay and things like that, it's really hard to get out. 187 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,120 Speaker 1: I wonder if this is more of a product of 188 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: us being disconnected because of technology and social media, Like 189 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: folks don't have real connections anymore, and they aren't making 190 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,599 Speaker 1: real connections anymore, you know what I'm saying. So I 191 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: wonder if this is just a by product of that, 192 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: like people not being able to establish real connections anymore. 193 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: So there is no there is no goal to be married, 194 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: but there's no goal to even make a real connection. 195 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: But it was always a goal because my parents are married, 196 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,559 Speaker 1: right and they're still married to this day, fifty sixty 197 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: years married, whatever it is. But for me, it's like, yeah, 198 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,200 Speaker 1: every marriage, we have our problems, right that. You get 199 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: into arguments, you get into fights. It takes communication, it 200 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: takes work. But the happiest days in my life is 201 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: being married. My wife comes home today and I'm excited. 202 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 1: I'm happy, she's happy, Like we can't wait to see 203 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: each other, because I get it. It's it's you know, 204 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: laying next to my wife. But it's also I met 205 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: it at fifteen. That's washing. There was nothing. I had glasses, 206 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: embraces and act. He was a nerd than you, a nerd. 207 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: Now she loved that nerd the whole way through. Yes, 208 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 1: I'm not a nerd now I get what you're saying. 209 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: I love being married. I've been bluffed to be with 210 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: the same protaphono twenty five years. So that's my best friend. 211 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: I was able to marry my best friend. But that's 212 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: when I go back to, we were able to establish 213 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 1: a real connection in a time where you weren't dealing 214 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: with social media and the way people people even talking 215 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 1: to each other anymore. It's it's d MS, it's it's apps, 216 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: it's all these other things. But that connection of like 217 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: talking to someone again, that's not happening anymore. So what 218 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying is this conversation that you guys just share 219 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: me about both of your marriages. I'm saying people are 220 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: hearing that less and less and less and marriage. Imagine 221 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: young people dating are saying dating is no longer priority 222 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: because they have better things to do. But the people 223 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 1: getting married because they're actually best friends, like they really 224 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: are friends or is it she looked good, he looked 225 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: goods taking the time to connect with someone enough to 226 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: call them their best friend. So what a couple of goals? 227 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 1: Then would everybody be online and they'd be like a 228 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: couple of goals? Who this person is a couple of goals? 229 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: What it olds? What does that mean? They just want 230 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 1: to be booed up. Well, here's the thing, Like, obviously, 231 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: Sierra is one of my best friends, and she has 232 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 1: an incredible marriage, and Russell's an incredible guy in an 233 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: incredible relationship. I will just say that to me, I'm 234 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 1: happy that I'm able to see that because that's not 235 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: the norm of what I see. That's not the normal 236 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: of what I see. So I'm happy that I'm able 237 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: to have that example, to still have that hope that 238 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: that kind of love and connection really does exist. But 239 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: that's not the normal. That's good because what she's saying 240 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,959 Speaker 1: is true, because the normal what we see is the 241 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: guy cheating and then the woman expected to always be there. 242 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. We got to think about 243 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: like this. If you take care of your wife or 244 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: your girl and you do too much, they call your 245 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: sim You're a sucker, You're doing too much. You you 246 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: but that's your queen. Aren't you supposed to take care 247 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: of your best friend, your queen, your girl, you love 248 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: your I'm supposed to get flowers. Aren't supposed to do 249 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: with That's what my dad taught me. That's what my 250 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: dad did to my mom. Right, Yeah, But I'm just 251 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: saying again, it goes back in this day and age. 252 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: That's not how it's looked at. Last question before we 253 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 1: go to the phone line, what do you tell your 254 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: son about marriage? It's it's a it's an interesting and 255 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: sometimes difficult conversation because we're all products of what we 256 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: saw growing up. So unfortunately, my son saw a failed marriage. 257 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: He does still see two people that genuinely love and 258 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: care about each other and are amazing parents to him, 259 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: and we work collectively as a unit. But he did 260 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,599 Speaker 1: see a broken marriage. So I don't expect him to 261 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: view marriage as this incredible thing because I saw my 262 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: parents not be married anymore. That's his view on it. 263 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 1: So I have to tell him, like, that's not you. 264 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,839 Speaker 1: You can meet someone and love them and fall in 265 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: love and want to get married and it's a beautiful thing. 266 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: And that's like my mom, gotcha. I don't like that 267 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: failed marriage talk. Though. I don't think that the marriage 268 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: failed just because two people you know, grew apart or whatever. 269 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: You know, they don't mean to fail. Did that. We 270 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: did it, and we did time. I'm saying I was 271 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: when it when it was good, it was good, that's right. Hello, 272 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: who's this Evan? That's a good morning. We're saying this 273 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 1: marriage still a goal, Vanessa.

Everybody 280 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: says sometimes I need to lower my standards. I refused it. 281 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: At anybody short, that's disrespectful, disrespect My assistant is six three, 282 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: and I tell her the same thing. I'm like, you're 283 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: not gonna find somebody taller like the it's not as 284 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: many people. Have you seen your assistant bangs me sades 285 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: very pretty girl. Somebody needs to draw them bangs back 286 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: like blind. But the thing about it is, it's like 287 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: I have friends and like friends who are married, friends 288 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: who are single, and we all talk um and I've 289 00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 1: really listened to my married friends about like their marriage 290 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. Sometimes it does turn me off 291 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: when I hear things about men cheating, women cheating, and 292 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 1: I'm just like, what is the purpose. But then I'm 293 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: feel like, very very hopeful that you know. I don't 294 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: think every like Charlie Mayne say all men, all black 295 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: men don't cheat. I don't think all black men do cheat. 296 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: But I do think at some point in time men 297 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: have cheated. At one point time. They're live Queen God, 298 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: God is telling me to tell you this right now. 299 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: I just got this dollar.

You gotta want 342 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: to put it in the work. You know, this, this 343 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: is a work. This is another job. You have to 344 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: want to do it. You know, if you don't want 345 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: to do it, you know, most people stay single or 346 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: or Instagram. You know, Hello, who's this? This is Ebony? 347 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: From whom? He even Connecticut? How are you guys? La? 348 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 1: La hey? Um. I personally feel like it has to 349 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 1: do everything with music and who people are listening to now. 350 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: A lot of the music out now is portraying a 351 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 1: lot of no love. Uh, get a whole bunch of holes. Um, 352 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 1: it's it's just a whole lot of talk about no love, 353 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: even though people are actually looking for love. Like, nobody 354 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: wants to be alone. Everybody wants to have somebody, but 355 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: everyone's going to get numerous that people just one and settling, 356 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: but but does not wanting to be alone me and 357 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: you have to be married. You can get a dog. 358 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 1: That's true. That's true, you can. But what I'm saying 359 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: is that the view of music now is what is 360 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: making people feel like they don't want to go and 361 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: actually find love, fall in love, and then allow themselves 362 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 1: to settle down. But I also would say this, you know, 363 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: growing up, how old are you so? Growing up, you 364 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: heard music the same way. You know, you could go 365 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: back to jay Z, whether it was Big Pimping a Girls, 366 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: Girls Girls, or some of those other songs that we 367 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 1: grew up to as well, was kind of the same thing. 368 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: R and B has changed a lot, but we grew 369 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: up to songs like that as well. That's true, that 370 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: is true. But I think it's a lot like the music. 371 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 1: Videos are just a little bit more graphical now, and 372 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,479 Speaker 1: I guess people are able to express themselves a lot more. 373 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 1: I agree with that, and I think there was more 374 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: of a balance back then. It was of a little 375 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 1: bit of both. Now it's it's not so much of that. 376 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: I agree. Even in R and B. Hello, who's this? Hi? 377 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: This is Michelle, Michelle, Michelle, what are you calling from Jersey? Okay, 378 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: talk to us. I definitely believe that marriage in the 379 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: sense that we have been indoctrinated to believe in, might 380 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,920 Speaker 1: be played out not necessarily a goal. I think you 381 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 1: have to understand what people you married as, because a 382 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: lot of people don't think that it takes standing in 383 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: front of a judge, a preacher, or signing paper that 384 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: you pay the state bore to be married. Marriage is 385 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: largely about commitment, because honestly, if it takes a piece 386 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: of paper for you to be faithful to me, I 387 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 1: don't know if I want you anyway. You don't need 388 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: a ring to be my wife, won't I say? Yeah? Y'all? 389 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: Even for the Bible thumpers, if you mook at in 390 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,399 Speaker 1: the Bible and the Old Testament, all it took for 391 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: marriage was sex and a commitment. Well that's what the 392 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: commitment was, what made the difference between your wife and 393 00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: your concubine. You're right, but you know the problem the 394 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: Bible dumpling somebody putting there that you can't have sex 395 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 1: before marriage, so a lot of people started getting married. 396 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,239 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody put in there that you can 397 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,959 Speaker 1: have sex before marriage. People really got to read their Bible, 398 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: because that's not in the Bible. That's the thing that 399 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 1: man has begun to about because six is the marriage. Actually, 400 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:22,400 Speaker 1: so all of this about shafting, all of this about 401 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,439 Speaker 1: fornication if you really understand the transmitteration of the word fornication, 402 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: if you are a real Hebrew Greek scholar and you 403 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 1: go and look into the meaning of these words, fornication 404 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 1: is not about sex. Fornication is idolatry, idolizing other gods. 405 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 1: So you telling me that everybody that we've had sex 406 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: with we've been married, though, no, not if you didn't 407 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: make a commitment to be with that person. Remember, there 408 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: is a clear delineation you have to make that commitment. 409 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 1: You have to decide, because honestly, marriage is a contract 410 00:20:55,680 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: between people. But whether that requires a signature from somebody 411 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 1: at the state and a license where you're literally paid 412 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 1: to be committed to someone, I think that's really the question. Yeah, 413 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 1: I say our point on that part. Yeah, I com 414 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 1: on that part. That's why the new the Lebron James 415 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: version of the Bible said I don't let them holstcase. 416 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: You got very clear about not being committed to people 417 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: most of the story. What's the moral of the storyline. 418 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,959 Speaker 1: The moral of the story to me is that times 419 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 1: have definitely changed. It actually saddens me a little bit 420 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: that that's not the goal anymore for a lot of people. 421 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: But we're living in a new day and age, a 422 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: new way of meeting people, a new way of socializing, 423 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: a new way of communicating with each other. And I 424 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: do feel like you can have an amazing commitment with 425 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 1: somebody without necessarily that piece of paper that binds you 426 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: to that. But you did catch the bouquet at the 427 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: last weather you were at, So she catched the bouquet 428 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: everywhere a lot of wide receiver the right at my face. 429 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 1: I can do. It's going right towards me. Well, if 430 00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 1: you decide to do it again, lot, there's no short 431 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: men better husbands. These are statistical facts. Okay, you can 432 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: google it, all right. We make up and with them 433 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: what we lack in stature. Short guys make better partners, okay. 434 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: And if you marry one, your relationship is more likely 435 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 1: to last. And you can carry on your back if 436 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: you need to walk around. Fact, I'm not even making 437 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 1: this up due to research. It seems short of men 438 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: make more faithful partners. A survey done by Ashley Madison, 439 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: which is the dating site for married people. Yes, it 440 00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,199 Speaker 1: says taller men are twice more likely to cheat than 441 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 1: the ones whose height is left than five peet ten inches. 442 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: Your blessing, ladies, is five foot six all right? Five five? 443 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: And you know what else you think about when you're tall. 444 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:46,479 Speaker 1: When you're tall, you see everything correct when you shomen goodness, 445 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: I can don't see my eye.

We never hear 583 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: about your personal so many stories that I've been hearing, 584 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: I was like, really had no idea, So why do 585 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: you decide to talk to go so in depth about 586 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: your personal Well, first of all, the seat that I 587 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: sit in every day doing first take on the ESPN. 588 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 1: You know, I pride myself and my character assassinated people. 589 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 1: I talk about what you do, know what your perspective is, 590 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera. And I got to give both 591 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: of y'all props, actually all three of y'all props, because 592 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: all of y'all have been authors, and the fact that 593 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: the matter is the kind of line light that y'all 594 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: have been in the seat that y'all sit in. When 595 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: you start writing about something you know, you you ultimately 596 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: feel an obligation to let people know who you are, 597 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 1: what you're all about, what your perspectives are. And so 598 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: to me to see people do that, I knew that 599 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: it was. If I was going to write a book, 600 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 1: there was only one way I could go about doing it. 601 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: Ain't do some damn sports. Book has got to be 602 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: about me, who I am, how I think, why I 603 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: came to be, how I am, the way that I think, execta, 604 00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: et cetera. I thought I owed that to the audience, 605 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,479 Speaker 1: and the only reason I hesitated it once I got 606 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: left Go Let Go by Hispim two thousand and nine. 607 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: In two thousand and eleven, people were coming to me 608 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: to write a book, and I knew I wanted it 609 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: to be about, you know, my life, et cetera, et cetera. 610 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: And my mother at the time, who had just gotten 611 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,160 Speaker 1: diagnosed with cancer, one that she lost in twenty seventeen, 612 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: got rested soul. She said. She made me swear you 613 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,960 Speaker 1: will never write this book while I'm alive. I understand 614 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: why after we reading it, because I'm sure it had 615 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: to do with your relationship with your father, yes, which 616 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: I felt like exactly why. Yeah, you addressed the topic 617 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: most men don't discuss enough, and that is our relationship 618 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: with our fathers. How difficult was it to explore that topic? 619 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 1: It was hard. And the reason why it was hard 620 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 1: it wasn't the writing process. It was the editing process, 621 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: which y'all all know. You know, you write it, but 622 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: they look at it. The editing processes. So when they're editing, 623 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: it's calling upon you to revisit and revisit over and 624 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: over and over again. And I didn't wait until a 625 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: book was finished to like show it to my sisters. 626 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 1: I got four older sisters, and I didn't wait until 627 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: the book was finished. When I wrote those specific chapters, 628 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: I sent it to them and they didn't talk to 629 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 1: me for two weeks. And I thought they were originally upset. 630 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: They weren't upset. They were just saying, we had buried 631 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: these memories a long time ago, And they said, and 632 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: you brought it back up. We don't. We ain't knocking 633 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: you for it. We understand, but it just hurt a 634 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,800 Speaker 1: lot to revisit some of those experiences because we had 635 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: buried them for the longest time, and the details that 636 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 1: you had, they couldn't believe that I remembered because I 637 00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: reminded them, and they were like, yeah, this happened. That happened. 638 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 1: No hero, Yeah, my dad he wasn't. I feel like 639 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: the things you said about him in the book are 640 00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:40,320 Speaker 1: the things you wanted to say about him at his funeral. 641 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: Yeah that's accurate. Yeah, I told him to his face. 642 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: I didn't say anything in a book that I didn't 643 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: tell him to his face, So let me be clear 644 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:52,320 Speaker 1: about that. In twenty eighteen, he passed away, fourteen months 645 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 1: after my mother passed away. And when he passed away, 646 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,719 Speaker 1: I caught my sister Carmen the morning of his funeral 647 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: and I said, I'm doing the eulogy and Karma was like, God, no, Steve, 648 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: please please, Steve, don't do this. Don't do this. She said, 649 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: what are you gonna say? I said, you'll find out 650 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: when you get to the viewer. And she's like, Steve, 651 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: don't do this. What would mommy want? What would mommy want? 652 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: You know what mommy would say? I said, I got 653 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: it and I was gonna go in and I was 654 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: gonna literally say everything that you see in the book. 655 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: And I called past the ARPERA something told me to 656 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: call him. You know, I've been going to cecc I've 657 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: known Pastor Banar for thirty years, and so I said, 658 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 1: let me call him. And I called him and told 659 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: him what I was feeling. And he was like, you 660 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: right to feel that way. I'm very familiar with your story. 661 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: He said, You're not wrong. He said, but the Bible 662 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: talks about God's grace and God's mercy. And he said, 663 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: and you might want to think about that before you 664 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: decide to speak your truth. And when I eulogized my father, 665 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 1: I went up on this. I went up on the 666 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 1: stage after everybody gave all the portables, all of you know, 667 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: all all the nice things, the pleasant trees they had 668 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: to say about him. And I walked up in. The 669 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 1: first words out of my mouth was, that's she all 670 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: memories of him, memories of my family. We have an 671 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: entirely different story. And I saw my cousin Derek kill 672 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 1: over like, oh no please. And I saw my brother 673 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: in Lay was like, oh lord, he's about to go in. 674 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: And I saw a neighbors that were in the audience 675 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 1: that I hadn't seen in years that just showed up 676 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: for my dad's funeral. And they were like literally lip 677 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 1: syncre to me. Please please don't do this. And I said, 678 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: my father was not a good man, I said. But 679 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: then I brought up my mother. I said, my mother 680 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,839 Speaker 1: knows nothing about sports. I'm Steve and A I work 681 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: for ESPN. World knows the sports world knows who I am. 682 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 1: My mother says EPs and whatever it is, I don't know. 683 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: But she didn't even know the letters, I said, But 684 00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: she knew what a home run was, she knew what 685 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: a no hitter was, she knew what a stolen base was, 686 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 1: and she knew it because of him, because she loved 687 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: my father so much that she knew baseball because of him. 688 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: I said, So there evidently was something very special about 689 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: him to have a woman like my mother. And then 690 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 1: I told about a lot of the happy moments that 691 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 1: he gave us. And then I ended it by saying, 692 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, he's still my dad 693 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: and I love him, and I don't think I would 694 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 1: have gotten to that point if it wasn't for a 695 00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:13,240 Speaker 1: LB or not. Wow, what made you change your perspective 696 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: of how to talk about him for the book was 697 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,919 Speaker 1: because you could add more context, because I could add 698 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: the full context, and not only that, I owe it. 699 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: If I'm gonna write it, you know, well, then you 700 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: know they. I didn't know it was gonna be like 701 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 1: seventy eight to eighty thousand words, but I literally wrote 702 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: ninety thousand words. I wrote the book myself, and when 703 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: a ghostwriter, it was me. I wrote this book, I 704 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 1: did the audio, and when there was another voice, it 705 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: was me. And I just said, if I'm gonna do this, 706 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: then I owe it to everybody. I mean, and you know, 707 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 1: because of the business that I'm in, I imagine talking 708 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 1: to you you or you. I can see the questions, 709 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 1: you know, because I'm experienced enough to know what's coming. 710 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: I know what I would ask, I know what I 711 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: would think about. And I wanted to make sure that 712 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: I left no doubt as to where I stood. And 713 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: you know what I was trying to say, and that's 714 00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 1: what I did. And I have a question. So, even 715 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,800 Speaker 1: even though obviously you know how you felt when you 716 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: were writing the book, because it was your thoughts and feelings, 717 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: was there a sense of like that therapeutic element, like 718 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: you know, and people actually put the words on paper 719 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 1: and write it down and read it and look at it. 720 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 1: A lot of authors say like it's a form of therapy. 721 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 1: It's like I finally got it out my head on 722 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,359 Speaker 1: the paper. Possibly, So I'm I'm not I'm not saying 723 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 1: that I didn't feel that way, but there was a 724 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: bigger emotion coming from it, Lalla. When you know, when 725 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: my mother passed away, to see her in the grave 726 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,720 Speaker 1: before him, and to see her deprived, she was seventy 727 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,839 Speaker 1: six years old. My mother was at a point where 728 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 1: let her go on a couple of cruises a year, 729 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: and she's in heaven. What was unforgivable to me was 730 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: not paying any bills, allowing her to work the hours 731 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 1: you were supposed to be working, to have the obligations 732 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,400 Speaker 1: you were supposed to have supposed to take off. And 733 00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: said you had a conversation with him, when you had 734 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: the conversation before he died, what was his reasoning, Well, 735 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 1: this was years earlier. I would tell you about five 736 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: years earlier. We were in my dining room. Were in 737 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: my mother's dining room. He's in there and his older brother, 738 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 1: my uncle Freddie, was sitting next to him, and my 739 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 1: father was like, you don't know what the hell you're 740 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: talking about. You don't realize what I've done for you. 741 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: I said, you haven't done anything for me, you know. 742 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: He started arguing with me, and my uncle Freddie looked 743 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:19,800 Speaker 1: at him and he said, by Soul that was his 744 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 1: middle name, by Soul, And he said, shut the up. 745 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 1: He said, this is Stephen. He's a journalist for a living. 746 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: You know, he knows what you what you haven't have 747 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: not done? Chapter in verse you have no shot. Just 748 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: be quiet. And my father just sat back and just 749 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: took it, and I just I just left it alone 750 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,160 Speaker 1: from there, all right? We got moreways, Steven A. Smith 751 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: when we come back, do more of it. Was the 752 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Everybody is dj V Charlemagne the guy. We 753 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. We got our guest hosts La 754 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 1: La joining us. Now we have Stephen A Smith in 755 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 1: the building. Charlemagne. Just Skip ever get in trouble for anything, 756 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,240 Speaker 1: he said on first take, because you talk about the times, 757 00:37:58,080 --> 00:37:59,320 Speaker 1: can you talk about the time that you got in 758 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,200 Speaker 1: trouble off for us? Think? And I'm like, well, Skip 759 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: had crazy opinions too, and the opinions you had weren't 760 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:08,919 Speaker 1: necessarily like I never recalled Skip getting in trouble wow 761 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: ever in terms of a suspension or anything like that. 762 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: When I got suspended, I was furious. I did not 763 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,719 Speaker 1: believe I deserved it. I was pissed off to the 764 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,360 Speaker 1: highest degree because I just thought that, you know, it 765 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: was made into something that it wasn't. And so for me, 766 00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: whatever my opinions are, I don't mind anybody coming at 767 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: me about that. This is what we feel about what 768 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: you said. It's when they try to branch it out 769 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: and turn it into something that it was not. That's 770 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,800 Speaker 1: what pisses me off, because what happens is when you 771 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: have Disney Disney. And I'm not knocking Disney for this 772 00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: at all. Listen, man, we got stockholders, got shareholders, You 773 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 1: got people to a piece, and so you got to 774 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,360 Speaker 1: pay attention to everybody. You ain't after black white and 775 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,920 Speaker 1: hispanic appeal. You have to mass appeal. You want it all. 776 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 1: And so as a result of that, you have to 777 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 1: pay attention to everything and everybody. And so when that 778 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: noise is made, my boss at the time felt compelled 779 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 1: to respond to the noise. And when he got suspended 780 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,839 Speaker 1: forty eight hours earlier, he told me I wasn't gonna 781 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: be suspected, and then you know, he turned around spid 782 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: to me. And so for me, it was I've learned 783 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: a lot, I'm a lot better and what I try 784 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: to do. And all of y'all can attest to this. 785 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 1: At one time or another, We've all had private conversations. 786 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:24,399 Speaker 1: I whispered something in y'all ear about something to watch 787 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 1: out for. I'm very very big about these are the 788 00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: mind fields. Watch out because what I'm saying is as 789 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 1: a product of corporate America, somebody that's been in corporate 790 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: America for over thirty years, I kind of know where 791 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 1: the mind fields are, and so as a result of that, 792 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,640 Speaker 1: I might see cats on the come up that I 793 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 1: think is going to be in my position or an 794 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 1: even higher position. And I'm saying, come in, let me 795 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,440 Speaker 1: make sure I tip you off to this, watch out 796 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: for this, watch out for this, watch out for that, 797 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 1: because I want y'all to succeed. I don't want y'all 798 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,240 Speaker 1: to field who the hell wants to be successful alone. 799 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:58,720 Speaker 1: Oh LJ. It shocked me too, but he did listened. 800 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: He walked off, So I ain't coming back until my 801 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 1: man comes back on because he knew it was wrong too. 802 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:06,360 Speaker 1: But I was really shocked and he took that position. 803 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: I certainly didn't ask him too, And I'm appreciative of that. 804 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean I mean shot. We still disagree ninety nine 805 00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 1: percent of the time, but I did appreciate the fact 806 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 1: that he took that position on my behalf. Who are 807 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 1: the worst fans? Are they cowboy fans fans or the 808 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: Navy fans? Cowboy fans? Nobody's worse. Nobody's worse, but I 809 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 1: will tell you I would tell the Navy got at 810 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 1: you a little bit. First of all, let me be 811 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:36,320 Speaker 1: very very clear, but I don't give a damn. I 812 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: want to be very very clear about that doesn't phase me, 813 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: It really really doesn't. I'm just after you know, you 814 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,880 Speaker 1: know me for years. I'm just built that way. Rihanna. 815 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: If she had a problem, Dad would have bothered me, 816 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 1: not her fans. I want I challenge anybody to tell 817 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:57,320 Speaker 1: me one negative thing I said about that wonderful performing 818 00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: young lady. Are you excited for this halftime show? I 819 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 1: don't want to say I'm not excited. She's fantastic. That's 820 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 1: not That's not where I'm going with this. Where you going, 821 00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: ladies and ladies and gentlemen. She's a lot of things. 822 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:13,839 Speaker 1: She's spectacular as Yes, and congratulations on new Mamahood. Yes, 823 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 1: I think there's one thing she's not. Huh, she ain't Beyonce. 824 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: You just said, na, you say Rihanna doesn't perform as well. 825 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 1: Let me give you any time, Let me give you, 826 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,879 Speaker 1: let me hook up on the inside. Sherry Shepherd's Team. 827 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: I'm promote my book last Tuesday. Sherry Shepherd's Team comes 828 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,960 Speaker 1: up to me and they said, since you're here, we 829 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: want a debate like format. We want to have fun 830 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 1: with it. I said, okay, bring it, no problem. I 831 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: didn't know what they were gonna ask, right, but let's 832 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:50,120 Speaker 1: show the problem. So I'm expecting a debate, right, Rihanna's great, 833 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: but I'm thinking you got a lot to live up 834 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: to because there's only one Beyonce. Now you agree, fine, 835 00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: you disagree? Fine, how we get to the point why 836 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 1: he got a pit two black women? Again? Really? Well, 837 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: I can't. I can't. I just can't be a fan both. 838 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: But I prefer Beyonce over Rihanna. That's a crime. Now, 839 00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:13,759 Speaker 1: and I didn't know that. In your book you talk 840 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: about learning lessons, Yes, and you have gotten in trouble 841 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: for that before when you pitted you should Curry against sadvantage. 842 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 1: That's right. Listen first of all, this yeah, yeah, fair question, 843 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 1: la la, And I'm gonna talk. I'm gonna I'm I 844 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 1: didn't know. I didn't know that. Yes, yes, let me 845 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: explain what happened. So Steph Curry is in Game six 846 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: of the NBA Finals. Lebron and Kyrie are coming. They 847 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: won Game five after Draymond got suspriended, bow getting Egua 848 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: Dollar got hurt. They win Game five. Game six, they 849 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: coming at Golden State. They down twelve with about four minutes, 850 00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: leapt and Steph Curry fouls out. Steph curR pulls out 851 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 1: his mouthpiece, tries to throw head the official. But missus 852 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:07,280 Speaker 1: it's a fan by accident. Blah blah blah. I Issia 853 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:11,120 Speaker 1: Curry goes ballistic. What y'all may not have known was that, 854 00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 1: And I love i Usia Curry, I mean, and no 855 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 1: problem throwing no shade on her whatsoever. I'm just telling 856 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 1: what happened. Prior to the game, she had tweeted that 857 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,320 Speaker 1: she was upset because they were backed up in traffic. 858 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: Now jay Z and Beyonce were coming to the game, 859 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 1: but nobody knew. So the Cleveland Reader and the gunder 860 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 1: or whatever it was, right the quickest loans a reader, 861 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: they held up the traffic. So she was mad about 862 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: that and was talking about how the wives and the 863 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: family or the players were Golden State would be inconvenience. 864 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,399 Speaker 1: She complained something else about the officiating blah blah blah, 865 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 1: so crazy but stop so so. So what happened is 866 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 1: that she did that and then she went off after 867 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 1: Steph Curry, you know, fouled out all of that other stuff. 868 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 1: What I said was, you are representing your man at 869 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: that particular moment in time. Anything that you do, it's 870 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: not you, it's the wife of him. And so because 871 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,760 Speaker 1: of that you have to guard yourself and be careful. 872 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: But now that they've lost too straight and Lebron and 873 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 1: the Calves have been given it to them, suddenly stuff 874 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 1: is rigged. She's an adorable young lady with an incredibly 875 00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 1: promising future. I wish in nothing but love, respect and happiness. 876 00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: But you can't do that. You just can't do that. 877 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: And I'm quite sure somebody got to her, which is 878 00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 1: why she ultimately deleted the tween. My other point that 879 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,840 Speaker 1: I would like to make, which will be deemed somewhat controversial, 880 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 1: but I don't particularly give it damn. I will present 881 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 1: in question form, rhetorical or otherwise. If that was Savannah 882 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: Lebron's wife, what would we be saying? And I got 883 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 1: news for you. As beautiful as everybody wants to say, 884 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:04,320 Speaker 1: Aisha Curry is and she is, Savannah is something special. 885 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:08,320 Speaker 1: Skip comes back at me and says, oh, please, you 886 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 1: know what are you talking about blah blah blah blah, 887 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 1: and I'm jumping in like, wait a minute, you will 888 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 1: get on Lebron about anything. How all of a sudden 889 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 1: this escapes you. You know what I'm saying. So that's 890 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:24,279 Speaker 1: how the whole Savannah Asia thing came up, because what 891 00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 1: I was saying was if this with Lebron, you would 892 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 1: have found an excuse to jump on him. And we 893 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: all know that Savannah, it's phenomenal. So when are you 894 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 1: talking about? That's all I was saying. If La La 895 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 1: is in a public position, if you or you are 896 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 1: in a public situation in the moment and there's a 897 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 1: tension that some your spouse or your significant other could 898 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: potentially bring to you that could detrimental that that can 899 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: make a detrimental to what you're trying to accomplish. They 900 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 1: can't get in the way of that. That's all I 901 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:56,400 Speaker 1: was trying to say. I've been in a position. The 902 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 1: thing is that also nobody in this room has been 903 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 1: married to an NBA player before. Day in and day out, 904 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 1: you're hearing about things that are going on. You're getting 905 00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 1: invented to about everything. You have emotions, You act off 906 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 1: emotions sometimes, so every night you're hearing about this whatever's 907 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 1: being said, and it's just building up and you get 908 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 1: protective and then something just set you off and you 909 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 1: want to say something because you realize your spouse has 910 00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 1: continuously taken the high road. I said earlier, I remember 911 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,520 Speaker 1: a time we talked about it before you came, when 912 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 1: I think I tweeted something at Skip Bayless because I 913 00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 1: was like, yo, enough with the mellow slander every single 914 00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:32,680 Speaker 1: day and he's not saying anything, and I'm just like, 915 00:46:32,840 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: this is enough because now it's affecting the household, it's 916 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,279 Speaker 1: affecting the mood, it's affects so it becomes a bigger thing. 917 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:40,800 Speaker 1: That's like somebody got to say something. Now. Is it 918 00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 1: a right time and place for those things? Of course, 919 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 1: But when you care about somebody, when you're protective, and 920 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,720 Speaker 1: when you're competitive, we're all competitors, and you act off emotion, 921 00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: you say things that might not be the right time 922 00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:52,879 Speaker 1: the right place, but at that time you're not thinking 923 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 1: like that. That's absolutely true. And my point is is 924 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 1: that I didn't blame how Hesha Curry for anything. You know, 925 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 1: I was saying in that moment, you can't do that. 926 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:05,600 Speaker 1: I've never said a word about her prior to that, right, 927 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,800 Speaker 1: and so I said that. And when I said that, 928 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 1: Horror Sponts was you paid two black women against each other? 929 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 1: And I was like, what how we get to that? 930 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 1: So then whether you realize it or not, okay, fine, 931 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,399 Speaker 1: I didn't look at it that way, But that's fine. 932 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 1: If you're saying that I did, okay, well, then now 933 00:47:23,280 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 1: I'll correct it. I find out weeks later the sports center, 934 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,880 Speaker 1: the six o'clock sports Center, that was supposed to be 935 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,360 Speaker 1: given to me, and it was taken away from me 936 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: because of that. It was gonna be taken away from 937 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: you because in Rihanna nothing nothing, and you know something 938 00:47:40,719 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 1: and and and if it ever does, fine because at 939 00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 1: the end of the day, there's a level of authenticity 940 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,359 Speaker 1: that has to come with what we do. I'm gonna 941 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 1: be me, damn it. That's how I feel. All Right. 942 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 1: We got Molways stephen A. Smith. When we come back, 943 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,360 Speaker 1: don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning.

Smith in the building, La La 947 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,040 Speaker 1: So do you just feel like in your position, you 948 00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 1: really just cannot care what anyone thinks about you. Because 949 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 1: I feel like people always want to say like, I 950 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: don't care what anybody But there is a point that 951 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 1: everyone does care and everyone has a place where they 952 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,320 Speaker 1: truly do want to be. But I'm not saying I 953 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:27,239 Speaker 1: don't care about what people think in general, La La. 954 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying there are certain things we can't care about 955 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 1: because we know it's not as unfair and as inhumane 956 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: as people are trying to make it out to be. 957 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,800 Speaker 1: If I sat up there and I disrespected Rihanna and 958 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,239 Speaker 1: I said I don't care, that's a problem because she 959 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,080 Speaker 1: doesn't deserve that. She's home, she's a new mom, she's 960 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:49,120 Speaker 1: a beautiful artist, she's doing her things. Most people would 961 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 1: dream to have the life that she's had. She's earned it. 962 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:53,279 Speaker 1: I got nothing but mad lover and respect for her. 963 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 1: If I said something disrespectful like that and I didn't care, 964 00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:59,080 Speaker 1: that's a problem. That's a lack of humanity. I would 965 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 1: never do that. What I'm saying is it's not a 966 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: crime to say I'm a huge Beyonce fan. There is 967 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 1: only one and you are about to go on the 968 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:11,360 Speaker 1: same stage she has blessed not once but twice, and 969 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: there is a standard to live up.

Y'all said it. 973 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 1: You do what the things that all the different things 974 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 1: that you're doing with power and now being memo, I'm 975 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:31,400 Speaker 1: seeing you. I'm watching what you're doing. You know you 976 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,440 Speaker 1: continue to a said, well, damn, everybody can't measure up 977 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 1: to you. Now, that doesn't mean they're whack. It doesn't 978 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 1: mean they're not gifted. It means they're not you. You 979 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:42,000 Speaker 1: gotta line of that all. You gotta line in the 980 00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:43,400 Speaker 1: book that kind of sums that up. You say on 981 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 1: first take, we capitalize on the kind of polarization people 982 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 1: supposedly at poor what's the word I believe? So I'm 983 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,239 Speaker 1: trying to remember. I mean, I read it, I read 984 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:55,759 Speaker 1: it loving times. But in terms of what like what 985 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:58,480 Speaker 1: you're discussing like, it's the kind of polarization. You know, 986 00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 1: people act like they don't like but what do it? 987 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,480 Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is this, you wake up and 988 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 1: you pay attention. We all do it. You have a show, 989 00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:08,960 Speaker 1: you know what's trending, you know what's newsworthy, you know 990 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,719 Speaker 1: what's percolating and as it was, and not only that, 991 00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: you know who percolates. And so because of that, it 992 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 1: determines what subject matter you're going to tackle, because you're 993 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 1: not doing the show for you, You're doing the show 994 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 1: for the audience you're trying to reach. And I have 995 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 1: an audience that has an expectation as it pertains to content. 996 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: And so when we're talking about sports and it's me, 997 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:35,080 Speaker 1: there's a level of expectation that they have as it 998 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,080 Speaker 1: pertains to the issues I'm willing to tackle. I'm mindful 999 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,839 Speaker 1: and cognizant of that, and I operate accordingly. And when 1000 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:44,080 Speaker 1: somebody questions that, I would remind them I've been number 1001 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: one for eleven years, every month, every year for eleven years, 1002 00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:52,440 Speaker 1: so evidently I kind of have an idea of what 1003 00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:55,840 Speaker 1: people want to see. And hear, all right, no, I know, 1004 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:57,959 Speaker 1: you gotta go. I got one more question. It ties 1005 00:50:58,000 --> 00:50:59,879 Speaker 1: into all of this and then no safety net chapter. 1006 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 1: You know, you talk about basically personalities who attack other 1007 00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,360 Speaker 1: personalities for things they say cause you talk about it. 1008 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,520 Speaker 1: I think it was the ray right standing least. Everybody 1009 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 1: got upset with what you said about that, and I 1010 00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:12,040 Speaker 1: feel the same way. I'm like, man, if you got 1011 00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 1: a microphone in front of you, you're going to say 1012 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: something at some point that you're going to get backlash. Four. 1013 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 1: So I don't understand when I see other personalities like 1014 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:25,400 Speaker 1: calling for other personality to be fired. Yeah, what it 1015 00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 1: is is and remember this, all three of y'all here, 1016 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: Remember what I'm about to say. When you're winning, they 1017 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:36,279 Speaker 1: always come in because, unfortunately, particularly in this day and age, 1018 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,960 Speaker 1: their definition of winning the closest they can get to 1019 00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,800 Speaker 1: it is knocking you off your perch instead of creating 1020 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:48,360 Speaker 1: one for their own. It's inevitable. And it's just like 1021 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:50,719 Speaker 1: when he used to call me donkey of the day 1022 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,719 Speaker 1: and all of this other stuff that people expected me 1023 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 1: to have a problem with him when I first met you. 1024 00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 1: What did I say? Had no problem with him? What's 1025 00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:57,960 Speaker 1: so well from you say? Because he didn't attack me. 1026 00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 1: He attacked what I felt about a particular I know 1027 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 1: the difference. They wanted to create that divide. You're not 1028 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 1: creating that because I'm gonna root for y'all, and I 1029 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:09,399 Speaker 1: want y'all a root for me, and I'm an root 1030 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 1: for a whole bunch of brothers and sisters to make it. 1031 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,440 Speaker 1: But in the same breath, you have to be real 1032 00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:15,600 Speaker 1: and authentic about what's going on in the moment that 1033 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:19,360 Speaker 1: is going on and do what you can to enlighten folks. 1034 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 1: If you feel you have an enlightening point of view, 1035 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: that's what you do, and you let the tips to 1036 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:27,759 Speaker 1: aur where they make. People who don't win are real 1037 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,799 Speaker 1: good about doing what you describe, let them keep doing 1038 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 1: it because it reminds you that you will winner. Otherwise 1039 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: they wouldn't be talking about you. I learned a lot 1040 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 1: from you, and I feel like it's vice versa. I 1041 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:37,439 Speaker 1: do want to say this because I was really sitting 1042 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,400 Speaker 1: here thinking about what we were talking about earlier, and 1043 00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:41,440 Speaker 1: I want to say this. You know, it is important. 1044 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,520 Speaker 1: Everyone can have an opinion and who you like better, 1045 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 1: who is your opinion. But I will say this as 1046 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,400 Speaker 1: a black woman, let's acknowledge and celebrate the fact that 1047 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:54,719 Speaker 1: we have two amazing, talented black women who were able 1048 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:58,120 Speaker 1: to do the halftime show at the Super Bowl. Outside 1049 00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,879 Speaker 1: of sports bands and players, there's the majority of people. 1050 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 1: I know that's the reason they watched the super Bowl, 1051 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:05,839 Speaker 1: not for who's playing. They're watching for that halftime show. 1052 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:09,320 Speaker 1: So let's acknowledge an uplift and applaud the fact that 1053 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 1: on such a huge forum you have Beyonce and now 1054 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,200 Speaker 1: you have Rihanna as a black woman. I'm proud of that. 1055 00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 1: That's something that makes me proud. That doesn't take away 1056 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,560 Speaker 1: from your opinion on who you like more or whatever whatever, 1057 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,360 Speaker 1: But at that moment, for me, it's about uplifting the 1058 00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,600 Speaker 1: fact that we need to celebrate that. Well, let me say, well, 1059 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 1: let me end up by saying this, I completely agree 1060 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 1: with that one thousand percent. And what you're saying and 1061 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:39,320 Speaker 1: what you would prefer is entirely different than someone throwing 1062 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: out an accusation that my sentiment was making it a 1063 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 1: divide between two black women. That's a difference. You're just 1064 00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:51,840 Speaker 1: simply saying they're both great. Let's celebrate them, no problem, 1065 00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: no problem whatsoever. That's entirely different than and understanding that 1066 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 1: they're both the reason that majority people are even watching. 1067 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,880 Speaker 1: That's right, you guys are watching, but the sports aspecting 1068 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: majority people are watching. But what happens is is that 1069 00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 1: when we question people's intent because they express something differently, 1070 00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: what happens is then you didn't lose those folks, those 1071 00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 1: folks that they like that because they're like, oh, here 1072 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 1: they go with this, and I'm like, no, at the 1073 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: end of the day, Rihanna is phenomenal, and she's got 1074 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:26,440 Speaker 1: her own army or navy as they sat Beyonce, it's 1075 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,680 Speaker 1: got her crew. They're both fantastic. They both sell out 1076 00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 1: stadiums and arenas. They're both making gobs and gobs of 1077 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:35,760 Speaker 1: money and they've earned it. Okay, much love and respect 1078 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: to you. Ain't no doubt about it. I'm root for 1079 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,399 Speaker 1: I ain't rooting against her. I'm just a Beyonce fan. 1080 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:43,200 Speaker 1: I think with these microphones, uh, you know, it's something 1081 00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:45,640 Speaker 1: that we would debate to the end of time. Intention 1082 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 1: versus impact, Yes, because it's a lot of times my 1083 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: intention wasn't to offend, but then somebody, like a lot 1084 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,320 Speaker 1: got to be like, nah, you offend, you offended. You know, 1085 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,719 Speaker 1: you impacted that person in a negative way, and those 1086 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:57,919 Speaker 1: moments you just gotta follow to keep it moving. Yeah, 1087 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 1: you know, which is which is what I did. But 1088 00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 1: let me be very clear, people don't like your apologies. 1089 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,920 Speaker 1: Hold all that. First of all, Leslie Jones on Comedy 1090 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:10,960 Speaker 1: sent you hlad so, and she's supposed to that's what 1091 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:13,480 Speaker 1: she does. I wasn't offended by it at all, all right, 1092 00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:17,960 Speaker 1: because she's great, o'nig. Bro it's there struggling, but I'm 1093 00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 1: fifty five. It ain't like I'm thirty five walking around 1094 00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:23,040 Speaker 1: with I'm fifty five.

See Carmela was taken into 1134 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:11,840 Speaker 1: custody Wednesday and clear Water, Florida after she failed to 1135 00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:16,120 Speaker 1: show up the court the face shoplifting charges.

She was being processed at the county jail. 1137 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: A body scanning revealed an anomaly in her genital area. 1138 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: I don't even know why I'm using big words like 1139 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:28,640 Speaker 1: anomaly for no reason. They found something odd in her genitals. 1140 00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:31,120 Speaker 1: I know what you're thinking, Was it the penis? All right? 1141 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,080 Speaker 1: It can be a little confusing when someone tells you 1142 00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: they are a woman, you know, but that's actually just 1143 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 1: what they identify at. And then when you get down there, whoa, 1144 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 1: you're staring at the whole play of frank and beans. 1145 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 1: But no, it wasn't a penis, okay. It was a pipe, right, 1146 00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,160 Speaker 1: not the kind of pipe that produces baby batter to 1147 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:47,959 Speaker 1: procreate more life, but the kind of pipe that people 1148 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:51,320 Speaker 1: put cracking and smoke it. You heard me, correct, crack 1149 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:54,920 Speaker 1: fried cocaine rocks. This woman had a glass crack pipe 1150 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:58,040 Speaker 1: in her vagina. Okay, yes, When officials conducted the script 1151 00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,919 Speaker 1: search of the suspect, they found a glass as crack 1152 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,560 Speaker 1: pipe protruding from the woman's poem. Poem, Carmella then removed 1153 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:06,920 Speaker 1: the crack pipe from her vagina and intentionally threw it 1154 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:09,000 Speaker 1: on the ground and stepped on it and an effort 1155 00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,200 Speaker 1: to destroy the evidence. Mind you, she did all of 1156 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 1: this in front of the officers who had just discovered 1157 00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:15,520 Speaker 1: said evidence on her. But that's not why she's getting 1158 00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:17,760 Speaker 1: dunk here today. It could be, but it's not. It's 1159 00:58:17,800 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 1: part of it. The main reason she's getting dunky of today, 1160 00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:23,960 Speaker 1: and because of her excuse as to why there was 1161 00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:27,400 Speaker 1: a whole crack pipe in her vagina. Carmela said that 1162 00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 1: the crack pipe wasn't a crack pipe, but it was 1163 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 1: a sex toy. She said this despite the fact that 1164 00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:35,919 Speaker 1: it was consistent with a pipe commonly used to smoke 1165 00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 1: crack cocaine and it had burnt markings all over it. Okay, 1166 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:41,600 Speaker 1: if she was really thinking she could have said the 1167 00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 1: burnt markings came from that new screen and gone a 1168 00:58:43,840 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 1: red that's going around. Okay, it don't just burn humans. 1169 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,040 Speaker 1: But nope, she said that the crack pipe she got 1170 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,400 Speaker 1: caught with. You know it was a sex toy. Let 1171 00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 1: me tell you something, Carmella.

It's a psychological thriller, man. 1244 01:03:16,920 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 1: It taps into um the innermost darkest uh apprehensions of 1245 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:27,320 Speaker 1: a group of a group of friends that come to 1246 01:03:27,480 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 1: a large uh, in the height of the pandemic, it 1247 01:03:32,160 --> 01:03:34,920 Speaker 1: just so happens to be hunted, you know, and and 1248 01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:39,280 Speaker 1: and the spirits that hunts large they pull out the 1249 01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:42,480 Speaker 1: fears of people and use it against them. But it's 1250 01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 1: not a scary movie. They're saying, it's not a who's 1251 01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:51,320 Speaker 1: this is scary? No, he said, He said he didn't 1252 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:53,840 Speaker 1: feel like it was scary to him. I didn't say 1253 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:57,160 Speaker 1: because like thirty three minutes, that's what I cut it off. 1254 01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,480 Speaker 1: I was like, nah, thirty three that I was home 1255 01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 1: alone at the time. Yeah, you yourself a disserve because 1256 01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 1: you know, right at thirty five, then when again as 1257 01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:11,560 Speaker 1: when they go crazy, and now I mean I think, um, 1258 01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:16,040 Speaker 1: you know, man, it's really about people tapping into the 1259 01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:18,080 Speaker 1: to the things that you know. You know how they 1260 01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,680 Speaker 1: talk about self taught. You know, you're a big on 1261 01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:23,800 Speaker 1: mental health and awareness, and you know, I self taught. 1262 01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 1: The things you think inside your man more important than 1263 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 1: the things you confess outside, you know, with your mouth, 1264 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:33,480 Speaker 1: and they tap into the things that you feel about yourself. 1265 01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:35,280 Speaker 1: That's why this is the type of horror movie that 1266 01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:36,720 Speaker 1: I feel like you could only make it in twenty 1267 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:43,840 Speaker 1: twenty three. Because we ain't scared, no monsters or nothing. Yeah. Yeah, 1268 01:04:43,840 --> 01:04:46,040 Speaker 1: And that's what the movie deals with, is the manifestation 1269 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:49,640 Speaker 1: of the consciousness. So inside the film, what happens is 1270 01:04:49,680 --> 01:04:52,880 Speaker 1: all the characters are dealing with something, you know, the 1271 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:55,360 Speaker 1: most unique thing we have on earth, which is the mind. 1272 01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:58,720 Speaker 1: So whatever it is that you could actually manifest or see, 1273 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 1: whether that's good or bad, that's actually what you bring 1274 01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:04,520 Speaker 1: it to your reality. So the movie is really cool 1275 01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:08,120 Speaker 1: that way, and it's a big conversation piece. Man. We've 1276 01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 1: been touring the last week now. We did like five 1277 01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:13,680 Speaker 1: six cities and every time we screened the movie, it's 1278 01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's been like an hour of Q and 1279 01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 1: A after everyone about what the mind is doing and 1280 01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:19,720 Speaker 1: how it's doing it. It's a lot to do with 1281 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:22,760 Speaker 1: mental illness too, man, Like, you know, so it's dope 1282 01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:26,160 Speaker 1: that way.

So we actually went 1302 01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:50,439 Speaker 1: to the CDC and had the conversation with them before 1303 01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:52,880 Speaker 1: they started doing the bubble and all that. We were 1304 01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:55,000 Speaker 1: the first ones to do it. We were actually driving 1305 01:06:55,080 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 1: people or driving test results to LA and back every day. 1306 01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 1: That's how he got us there, so that's how we're 1307 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:03,720 Speaker 1: able to get there. Joe Spihcord drove from New York 1308 01:07:03,960 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 1: to Lake Taho to do this film. Terrence Tip. Everybody 1309 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:09,960 Speaker 1: came down and descended into one location so we could 1310 01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:11,440 Speaker 1: make the movie. Originally I was going to do it 1311 01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:14,360 Speaker 1: with a cabraphone, and then I got a little bit 1312 01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 1: more risky. I was like, man, I wonder if I 1313 01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:17,920 Speaker 1: could call it a real DP and really shoot this. 1314 01:07:18,560 --> 01:07:21,160 Speaker 1: And so I think it's really great about the film 1315 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:24,640 Speaker 1: is in between takes you will see when you go 1316 01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:27,760 Speaker 1: see the movie, wise call fears because you could really 1317 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:30,680 Speaker 1: see every actor in there really dealing with something. Because 1318 01:07:30,720 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 1: this is at a time where we didn't know so 1319 01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:36,720 Speaker 1: now everybody's cool, Now everybody tough, Now everybody know everything. 1320 01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,560 Speaker 1: But this is when we were watching CNN and ten 1321 01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 1: thousand Bodies every day. We were saying, you know what 1322 01:07:42,160 --> 01:07:44,520 Speaker 1: I mean, this is that moment. So to be able 1323 01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 1: to do that film during that time, and shout out 1324 01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 1: to Rock sam Man for producing the film during that 1325 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:50,920 Speaker 1: but we did it, man, And now to have a 1326 01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 1: movie that looks like this and feels like this fresh, new, 1327 01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:56,600 Speaker 1: pretty dope.

I love that there's such a grittiness and 1341 01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:38,280 Speaker 1: so authentic. One is done that way, like when you 1342 01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 1: just in the trenches shooting a movie as a labor 1343 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:44,040 Speaker 1: of love. Everybody's just putting their best foot forward. It's 1344 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 1: not about hair to make up the clothes. It's really 1345 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:48,600 Speaker 1: about just digging in and getting into it. You got 1346 01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:52,240 Speaker 1: to be a beast to do that. Yeah, he hes dog. 1347 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:55,240 Speaker 1: So you thought to yourself down, let's use no budget whatsoever. 1348 01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:59,519 Speaker 1: What the film representative was the moment of the time 1349 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 1: we were in. So even when Tip got there, when 1350 01:09:03,040 --> 01:09:04,720 Speaker 1: it come up to right, you know, right when he 1351 01:09:04,840 --> 01:09:06,519 Speaker 1: got there, and I looked at him. I was I 1352 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:09,080 Speaker 1: was like, that's it, this is the moment. This is 1353 01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,479 Speaker 1: what he looks like, you know what I mean? And yeah, 1354 01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:14,240 Speaker 1: no no budget at all. You know. What we were 1355 01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:16,439 Speaker 1: trying to do was just be raw and be ugly 1356 01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:19,800 Speaker 1: and capture what it felt like during that time. But 1357 01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:21,920 Speaker 1: the twist is when you go to the theater, you'll 1358 01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:24,800 Speaker 1: understand where we're going with this, because, like I said, 1359 01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:29,360 Speaker 1: fear is a powerful, powerful emotion and it would look 1360 01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,720 Speaker 1: it could it could manifest in a very very hurtful way. 1361 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 1: So what I thought was really cool about the movies 1362 01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:37,080 Speaker 1: as we keep growing it and growing it. I was 1363 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 1: saying this the other day, like during that time and 1364 01:09:39,840 --> 01:09:42,120 Speaker 1: even now, like you feel like I mean, I feel 1365 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:43,639 Speaker 1: like I got a little thing right here. You're gonna 1366 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:46,599 Speaker 1: line you started searching, you go down the rabbit hole 1367 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:52,960 Speaker 1: for you know, you didn't diagnose yourself, right, So like 1368 01:09:53,040 --> 01:09:56,800 Speaker 1: I got this And so this energy is in this film, right, 1369 01:09:56,880 --> 01:09:59,640 Speaker 1: How we perceived television is in this film. How we 1370 01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:03,519 Speaker 1: see everything that we consume and how we regurgitated it's 1371 01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:05,639 Speaker 1: in this film.

My biggest 1382 01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:38,920 Speaker 1: fear is just not maximizing my full potential, you know, 1383 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 1: waking up an old man and looking back and feeling 1384 01:10:41,840 --> 01:10:43,720 Speaker 1: like I left something on the table. And so that's 1385 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:45,640 Speaker 1: why every morning I get up, I'm like, you know, 1386 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to leave anything behind in this life, 1387 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:50,519 Speaker 1: you know, So that would probably be it is that 1388 01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:52,080 Speaker 1: while you're looking alone, walk in front of you and 1389 01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:09,599 Speaker 1: is my sister, sister.

I 1395 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,519 Speaker 1: think my biggest fear, man, you know, is not being 1396 01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 1: able to be there for for for my kids and 1397 01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:34,920 Speaker 1: my loved ones when they depending on me when they 1398 01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:37,280 Speaker 1: need me, and not even just not be there physically, 1399 01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:40,200 Speaker 1: like you know, just not be here to guide them 1400 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:43,000 Speaker 1: and direct them and you know, off of my my 1401 01:11:43,439 --> 01:11:48,040 Speaker 1: uh I guess experience or knowledge of wisdom for them 1402 01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:51,200 Speaker 1: to get through whatever they might be challenged with. I 1403 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:55,240 Speaker 1: think that's that's my biggest fear. Yeah. Oh, I think 1404 01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:59,760 Speaker 1: my biggest fear is like constantly trying to wonder if 1405 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:03,120 Speaker 1: I'm be here in ten, twelve, thirteen, fourteen years from 1406 01:12:03,120 --> 01:12:04,400 Speaker 1: my kids, Like I'm like, man, I want to be 1407 01:12:04,439 --> 01:12:06,840 Speaker 1: here when they turn. That's something that I keep on 1408 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:09,720 Speaker 1: messing with. And that's something you gotta not do. You 1409 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:11,840 Speaker 1: got to live in a moment right now and understand that, 1410 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:14,400 Speaker 1: you know, every day as a blessing versus you trying 1411 01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:17,360 Speaker 1: to live for what you know, what twenty thirty gonna 1412 01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:19,439 Speaker 1: feel like, you know what I mean, so it would 1413 01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:21,360 Speaker 1: be time for me. And that's what's crazy as we 1414 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:24,760 Speaker 1: deal with all this in the film. Yeah, I'm thinking 1415 01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:26,679 Speaker 1: about the movie. You know, you did the whole airborne 1416 01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:29,120 Speaker 1: virus that got people stuck in the house, you know 1417 01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:31,479 Speaker 1: what I mean. But then also, I'm not gonna give 1418 01:12:31,479 --> 01:12:33,439 Speaker 1: it away, but there was a lot of people who 1419 01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:36,560 Speaker 1: committed suicide during that time. When was all of that? 1420 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:38,800 Speaker 1: Did y'all tap all of that during that one year 1421 01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:41,120 Speaker 1: or well that stuff y'all did after the fact? Did 1422 01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:43,800 Speaker 1: it all in the fifteen days we were there? Wow? 1423 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:47,479 Speaker 1: So we were really ahead of that moment. Yeah, that's why. 1424 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:49,080 Speaker 1: That's why I keep telling you know, that's why the 1425 01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:51,000 Speaker 1: movie is being received the way because you what you 1426 01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 1: just hit on, which is we were actually ahead of 1427 01:12:53,479 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 1: that curve a little bit. What we were like, man, 1428 01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:58,720 Speaker 1: just thinking it out loud, like tip Terence, you know 1429 01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:01,120 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like how they what happens is pretty dope. 1430 01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:05,880 Speaker 1: You what was it like, July twenty twenty. Yeah, Yeah, 1431 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:10,439 Speaker 1: everything started hitting the fan around March April Februaries when 1432 01:13:10,479 --> 01:13:14,160 Speaker 1: they started going. You know, we put all the money 1433 01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:16,240 Speaker 1: on the screen. So it's like, you know, when he 1434 01:13:16,280 --> 01:13:18,400 Speaker 1: asked you to participate in something like that, you want 1435 01:13:18,439 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 1: to get paid six figures to be in it or 1436 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 1: you want to invest six figures and have a seat 1437 01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 1: at the table. And so that's the beauty of what 1438 01:13:24,479 --> 01:13:27,839 Speaker 1: Dion's created with This is where you know producers complete 1439 01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:31,400 Speaker 1: profit participation and I and I love that because it's 1440 01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:33,800 Speaker 1: all about you know, Boston up. It's all about us 1441 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:37,320 Speaker 1: working together. It's not reaching up. There's no studio handing 1442 01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 1: us down money. It's completely self finance, doesn't looking depend 1443 01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:43,600 Speaker 1: If anybody looks looking dependent, like they didn't tell me 1444 01:13:43,680 --> 01:13:45,559 Speaker 1: that right now, I would have never thought that. Watching 1445 01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 1: it feel like get Out is now that I think about. 1446 01:13:47,280 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 1: That's why you know the people and get Out of 1447 01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:50,840 Speaker 1: the actors, they got shot to get out and there 1448 01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:55,519 Speaker 1: your mouth to guard is yet this get Out? And 1449 01:13:55,560 --> 01:13:58,600 Speaker 1: then the movie a little bit part it's checked with 1450 01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:05,840 Speaker 1: an armored in a box. His first road he checked 1451 01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 1: from Get Up. It's crazy. Yeah, but I think like 1452 01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:12,200 Speaker 1: what this represents everyone. I think everyone talks a good 1453 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:15,040 Speaker 1: game about this black excellence and building our own and 1454 01:14:15,680 --> 01:14:18,240 Speaker 1: but it's very seldom man, that we actually really work together. 1455 01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,760 Speaker 1: And people, Yeah, people don't want to have that conversation about, like, 1456 01:14:21,920 --> 01:14:23,760 Speaker 1: you know, working with people that look just like you, 1457 01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:27,200 Speaker 1: and especially in this industry. Man where people are actually 1458 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:29,280 Speaker 1: the ones that look like you could be the most 1459 01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:32,439 Speaker 1: cutthroat you know, and the most people that have pushed 1460 01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:34,680 Speaker 1: you away so very clickish, you know what I mean. 1461 01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:38,080 Speaker 1: So for us independently, man, I've been you know, this 1462 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:39,920 Speaker 1: took us a long time to be able to build this. 1463 01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:43,559 Speaker 1: But now, like movies like you know, Black and Blue 1464 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:45,920 Speaker 1: and Intruder and you know all these other films we 1465 01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:49,920 Speaker 1: didn't made Supremacy, Yeah, with rehearsal, Ali and Danny Glover 1466 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:52,479 Speaker 1: like now to be able to do it at this 1467 01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:55,679 Speaker 1: level and now also be inclusive and work with other people, 1468 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:58,639 Speaker 1: this movie could go much further than I could throw 1469 01:14:58,720 --> 01:15:00,519 Speaker 1: it based on the fact that these guys could run 1470 01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:02,439 Speaker 1: faster than me too, you know what I mean. So 1471 01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:05,960 Speaker 1: this should be like the new brand of what we're 1472 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,719 Speaker 1: trying to build in Hollywood, you know, which is really 1473 01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:12,440 Speaker 1: everybody working together and building something and owning something collectively, 1474 01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:15,680 Speaker 1: not just one person getting rich or getting empowered or 1475 01:15:16,080 --> 01:15:19,920 Speaker 1: so if this movie works, we do it again, and 1476 01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 1: then we do it again, and then these guys actually 1477 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:24,840 Speaker 1: participate because right now no one owns IPS. I was 1478 01:15:24,840 --> 01:15:27,440 Speaker 1: going to say, it's just so that's what's so important 1479 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:30,040 Speaker 1: and one thing about you, Dan is you're always about 1480 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:34,160 Speaker 1: giving those opportunities to people that to us, you know, 1481 01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:38,120 Speaker 1: people that understand what our day to day lifestyle is like. 1482 01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:40,600 Speaker 1: And I think is amazing to provide those opportunities to 1483 01:15:40,680 --> 01:15:43,080 Speaker 1: all of us for ownership and just also to kind 1484 01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 1: of I've learned a lot from you, like just learning 1485 01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 1: from you, and I know just watching how he works, 1486 01:15:48,280 --> 01:15:50,559 Speaker 1: it's like it's like a masterclass. And to be able 1487 01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:52,840 Speaker 1: to be a part of that and then, like he said, 1488 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:55,439 Speaker 1: take that blueprint and do it again, and do it again. 1489 01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:57,840 Speaker 1: That's what it's about. Providing more opportunities for all of 1490 01:15:57,920 --> 01:15:59,840 Speaker 1: us out there to continue to grow and then put 1491 01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:03,320 Speaker 1: some positions to provide more opportunities for more people. You 1492 01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:05,519 Speaker 1: gotta have that. It's a reason why people are like, man, 1493 01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:08,760 Speaker 1: I haven't seen Jack Nicholson work in twenty five years, 1494 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 1: but he's sitting on the front row of the Lakers 1495 01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:14,360 Speaker 1: game right. It's because he owns Steak and Equity and 1496 01:16:14,400 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 1: Batman piano reeves the matrix, you know what I mean. 1497 01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:20,120 Speaker 1: So you could go on and on how these guys 1498 01:16:20,160 --> 01:16:23,080 Speaker 1: are able to actually be a part of something, but us, 1499 01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:25,640 Speaker 1: we always get it up front. You know what I mean. 1500 01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:28,000 Speaker 1: And now in this system where everything is streaming and 1501 01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:30,679 Speaker 1: they own everything, you really don't get no IP or equity. 1502 01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:33,080 Speaker 1: So now you're gonna get paid all the money right now, 1503 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:35,360 Speaker 1: and then you're gonna watch that for the next twenty 1504 01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:37,800 Speaker 1: thirty years. Your kid's gonna watch that. So to be 1505 01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 1: able to participate like real did and to get out 1506 01:16:40,960 --> 01:16:43,920 Speaker 1: or have percentage, I'm sure he didn't invest, but they 1507 01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:46,280 Speaker 1: gave him equity in the movie because he came in 1508 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:49,040 Speaker 1: a small budget movie. But this is different, man, Like, 1509 01:16:49,160 --> 01:16:52,439 Speaker 1: this is ownership. So when you see Fear this weekend 1510 01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:55,560 Speaker 1: in the movie theater, and you're right, it looks fantastic. 1511 01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:59,719 Speaker 1: Shout out to Chris Duskin, you know the whole VFX 1512 01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:01,800 Speaker 1: team that worked on this. When you see that, just 1513 01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:04,960 Speaker 1: understand when you buy that ticket, it is actually going 1514 01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:07,680 Speaker 1: back to a black production company and back to these 1515 01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:09,840 Speaker 1: guys who put their money up and they own that. 1516 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:11,920 Speaker 1: So in five years from now, when you watch Feared, 1517 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:13,760 Speaker 1: it's there. So now we could buy some cars for 1518 01:17:13,920 --> 01:17:26,519 Speaker 1: Envy's car shot for the car shot, TI I was 1519 01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:29,000 Speaker 1: gonna ask.

You know. 1531 01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:04,920 Speaker 1: We just wanted to be a part of whatever was 1532 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:08,120 Speaker 1: going to be on the other side that was that 1533 01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:13,640 Speaker 1: was going to be financially beneficial or even just culturally beneficial. Uh. 1534 01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,760 Speaker 1: And I think you know, in our own way, everybody did. 1535 01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:19,320 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of people didn't make it to 1536 01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:23,400 Speaker 1: the other side. I'm saying that physically as well as 1537 01:18:23,479 --> 01:18:26,639 Speaker 1: mental mentally. A lot of people did not make that jump. 1538 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:32,160 Speaker 1: Y'all show that in the movie. Yeah, some people wanted 1539 01:18:32,200 --> 01:18:36,040 Speaker 1: to make it. You know, it's around than just what 1540 01:18:36,120 --> 01:18:38,840 Speaker 1: wasn't you know, and just wouldn't let it happen with 1541 01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:44,360 Speaker 1: the ain't gonna say we got more with tr terrce 1542 01:18:44,439 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 1: J and Dion Taylor.

Like who 1549 01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:09,840 Speaker 1: taught you? Like you're giving the game to people, but 1550 01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:13,120 Speaker 1: who taught you? You know what? I wasn't taught And 1551 01:19:13,280 --> 01:19:16,160 Speaker 1: I think that's what really helps me to be who 1552 01:19:16,200 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 1: I am today because it was so hard for us 1553 01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:21,320 Speaker 1: for seventeen years. Every time we went somewhere and somebody 1554 01:19:21,400 --> 01:19:24,000 Speaker 1: tell you know, you don't know how to actually do something, 1555 01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:26,000 Speaker 1: so you have to learn on your own. I just 1556 01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:29,080 Speaker 1: remember Man two three times having a metaphysical death in 1557 01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:31,360 Speaker 1: my life. Well I'm like, damn man, Like I thought 1558 01:19:31,400 --> 01:19:35,080 Speaker 1: I was doing this right, but I've collapsed. And later 1559 01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:38,840 Speaker 1: on in life I ended up meaning Robert Smith, who 1560 01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:41,479 Speaker 1: became a real mentor to me. But I was already 1561 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:44,559 Speaker 1: on the move. He already seen that. But yeah, that's 1562 01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:46,640 Speaker 1: why Richard black Man in America too. Yeah, but that's 1563 01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:48,479 Speaker 1: why I just come from a place man of like, man, 1564 01:19:48,600 --> 01:19:50,920 Speaker 1: we could just show it educating. I know that's not normal, 1565 01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:53,760 Speaker 1: but you know we already said, man, the game is 1566 01:19:53,800 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 1: to be sold, and I told I've always been like, no, man, 1567 01:19:56,160 --> 01:19:58,360 Speaker 1: you get a game away for free, so we could 1568 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:01,120 Speaker 1: learn and move forward. That's the bottom line, you know 1569 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:02,920 Speaker 1: what I mean. It's not it should not be this 1570 01:20:03,160 --> 01:20:06,160 Speaker 1: thing where it's only one and we've had this conversation. 1571 01:20:06,160 --> 01:20:08,439 Speaker 1: I've seen Kevin Hard have it. I've seen Tia have it, 1572 01:20:08,880 --> 01:20:12,360 Speaker 1: Terrence have it. That's a reality right now, it's only one, 1573 01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:14,040 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's like, man, how do 1574 01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,760 Speaker 1: we get past that? And then how do we also 1575 01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:19,960 Speaker 1: celebrate people that's actually winning? Man? You know, we just 1576 01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:23,439 Speaker 1: talking about Josephcore of fifty cent on the way over here, 1577 01:20:23,439 --> 01:20:25,280 Speaker 1: because Joe is a really big part of this film, 1578 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:28,080 Speaker 1: and I was just saying to myself, Man, do you 1579 01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:30,760 Speaker 1: guys understand we do as a culture, but do you 1580 01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:34,880 Speaker 1: understand what this man has done in television? Yeah? I 1581 01:20:34,880 --> 01:20:38,479 Speaker 1: don't think people understand. They don't. Yeah, But at the 1582 01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:41,680 Speaker 1: same time, why why why does the country not understand that? 1583 01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:44,439 Speaker 1: And then why is he still being in a position 1584 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:47,720 Speaker 1: where he has to fight for what he's right? Right, Like, 1585 01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 1: this is real, man, you think of no valuable in 1586 01:20:50,400 --> 01:20:56,679 Speaker 1: black content? We value, but I don't think somebody else's hands. True, 1587 01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:02,920 Speaker 1: they try to devalue. We owe his numbers. His numbers 1588 01:21:03,040 --> 01:21:05,760 Speaker 1: better than every other show on the network. So what 1589 01:21:06,080 --> 01:21:08,680 Speaker 1: does that mean? But that's also why it's up to us, 1590 01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,519 Speaker 1: like everything that we're talking about, because obviously fifty has 1591 01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 1: been a mentor and I've said a million times, I 1592 01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 1: say it a million one times. Fifty changed my life 1593 01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,479 Speaker 1: by the opportunities that he's always provided to me. But 1594 01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:21,280 Speaker 1: then you'll see what people be like, Oh she did power, 1595 01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 1: now she on BMF, she just do everything. We're fifties 1596 01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:26,120 Speaker 1: that first of all, I'm loyal, and second of all, 1597 01:21:26,400 --> 01:21:35,800 Speaker 1: like this man provided it's like it's like it's you're 1598 01:21:35,840 --> 01:21:37,840 Speaker 1: mad about that or that's not the right thing, but 1599 01:21:38,360 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 1: some other person gives me opportunity. Yeah, yeah, you should 1600 01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:43,639 Speaker 1: go do that.

You know, let me 1640 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:02,160 Speaker 1: ask you a question, this question for you too, and 1641 01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:06,000 Speaker 1: you this this is interesting. Could you could you when 1642 01:24:06,000 --> 01:24:09,400 Speaker 1: you name Killer Mike yourself? You see all these different 1643 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:14,120 Speaker 1: brands organizations that as pioneer rap. Is there a way 1644 01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 1: to actually unionize hip hop? Was it somebody trying to 1645 01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:20,840 Speaker 1: do that. They've been trying to do it. For why 1646 01:24:20,880 --> 01:24:22,840 Speaker 1: they trying. What I'm saying, you could actually do that, 1647 01:24:23,000 --> 01:24:24,439 Speaker 1: I think, I think it should be done it and 1648 01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:27,400 Speaker 1: the reason not only for that for conversation and growth, 1649 01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:30,400 Speaker 1: but also think about all the artists that get older. 1650 01:24:30,479 --> 01:24:33,320 Speaker 1: And that's what I'm saying with a pension, yeah, don't 1651 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,479 Speaker 1: have healthcare. Yeah, you know, don't have the finance. That's 1652 01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:38,960 Speaker 1: what they need. That's retirement. I mean, I think that 1653 01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:40,519 Speaker 1: would be a great You'd have to look at other 1654 01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:41,960 Speaker 1: industries and to see how they did it, because that's 1655 01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:43,640 Speaker 1: out of my spectrum education. I guess you'd have to 1656 01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:45,800 Speaker 1: look at like the film industry and see how they 1657 01:24:45,880 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 1: did it way way way back, because those old artists 1658 01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:52,759 Speaker 1: have nothing right right, Like they've been used through the system, 1659 01:24:52,840 --> 01:24:57,600 Speaker 1: through the studios of nothing and get so they got 1660 01:24:57,680 --> 01:24:59,240 Speaker 1: a way for them. They got away for the fifty 1661 01:24:59,280 --> 01:25:02,800 Speaker 1: year hip hop the check right. So that's crazy, man, 1662 01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:05,000 Speaker 1: like you should you should as smart as you are, man, 1663 01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:09,080 Speaker 1: you should dive into that. I mean, bro, I hear it. 1664 01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:12,760 Speaker 1: It takes participation, you know what I mean. Everybody gotta be, 1665 01:25:13,120 --> 01:25:16,280 Speaker 1: you know, willing to come together. I see most of 1666 01:25:16,320 --> 01:25:20,519 Speaker 1: the time people if it ain't our idea. Yeah, you 1667 01:25:20,600 --> 01:25:23,120 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, if we didn't think of it first, 1668 01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:26,320 Speaker 1: like you know, a lot of times people don't really 1669 01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:29,519 Speaker 1: want to participate, you know, collectively. But it is a 1670 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:32,000 Speaker 1: phenomenal idea, and it's gonna be a resentment to the 1671 01:25:32,160 --> 01:25:35,120 Speaker 1: to the artists who aren't doing well. Then you know, 1672 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,160 Speaker 1: why should I work with the artists that is doing well. 1673 01:25:37,479 --> 01:25:40,200 Speaker 1: We don't just build it without them, right, I mean, 1674 01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:43,200 Speaker 1: you don't get in right, So anyway, that's interesting. We 1675 01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:45,360 Speaker 1: just can't pay your dudes for after So it's the 1676 01:25:45,360 --> 01:25:47,639 Speaker 1: same thing you pay your dudes yelling and when things happen, 1677 01:25:47,680 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 1: you get helping charge you get.
