1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: Is Netflix about to be canceled? It's a jewel show,

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: and not like you've tried to cancel it four times

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 1: but you didn't clear out your credit card information canceled.

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: I mean, is it actually going to be canceled because

5
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: employees at Netflix are walking off of the job. Oh yeah,

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 1: because if Dave Chappelle's new special right the Closer, what

7
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: everyone is trying to cancel him? Oh yeah, I can't read. Yeah,

8
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: I meant in the Closer. But one of the lines

9
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: I saw people complaining about is the one way he

10
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 1: was talking about everyone on Earth comes through like a

11
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,559
Speaker 1: woman's legs. And the amount of emails and cools that

12
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: Netflix got apparently is astronomical. It's like the most that

13
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: they've ever received. Every single time Dave Chappelle comes up

14
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,319
Speaker 1: with a special. Now people complain about it, but they've

15
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: been really complaining about this one anyway, Going wow, But

16
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 1: his like his jokes and stuff about LGBTQ like that community.

17
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 1: To me, they seem extremely innocent and not like coming

18
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: from a place where he's trying to actually like target them.

19
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: But comedies are with seeing that's the thing. Okay, this

20
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: is coming from a someone who has done stand up

21
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: comedy for almost well, just as long as I've done

22
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: this job. And sure I don't have the level of

23
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: success of a Dave Chappelle because he's one of the

24
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: best to have ever done it, but I have I

25
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 1: look at it like this, because yes, he jokes about

26
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: things that are are offensive to people. There could be

27
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: taken offensive, could be taken the wrong way, right. I

28
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: feel like though, if you're if it's an honest attempt

29
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: at a joke and the intention is just to make

30
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: people laugh based on an observation of life, yeah, then

31
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: it should be taken as that, and it doesn't mean

32
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 1: that there's any sort of harshness or any sort of

33
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 1: ill will behind it. If you make a just something

34
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: that is a joke about things that sorry, there are

35
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: very very basic things that happen generalities in life everywhere, right,

36
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: and if you just like pointing out the things in

37
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: life that are kind of funny, then I think it's okay.

38
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: But people don't see it that way. You can't joke

39
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: about it if you But because there's a difference between

40
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: joking with hate and then joking just as a like, hey,

41
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: this is something that's funny. Now, Dave Chappelle. I think

42
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: it could be taking the other way because that community

43
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: has really gotten on his case a lot. So maybe

44
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: people look at it like he's just trying to slam

45
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: them back, but I mean he's I think he's just

46
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 1: trying to make jokes. He's trying to just embrace something. Also,

47
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: all the other comedians they're trying to do exactly. Yeah,

48
00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: I'm happy that Netflix is actually standing by him, because, like,

49
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to get to a place in the

50
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: world where we can't joke about things like because if

51
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: we get to that place, it's going to be extremely bored. Yeah,

52
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: I'm surprised that Plucks actually stood by him, because I'm

53
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: surprised most companies now will ditch anybody in a heartbeatuse

54
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: they even come close to a line. I'm proof and

55
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: it's the truth though, they will like and that's the

56
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 1: thing about comedy too. I've had people walk out of

57
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: shows before just because I mentioned klen Jenner's name. I

58
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 1: wasn't even going to go there with anything really like nothing, right, yeah,

59
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: just because I mentioned it, and then they tweet at

60
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: me that like I was and I'm like, dude, all

61
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: I did was say a name. Also, if you listen

62
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 1: to me. Two seconds after I said that name, I said,

63
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: I support anybody being who they want to be and

64
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: what they want to be. I think you can do

65
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: whatever you want. I don't judge. I have what looks

66
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: like an art of choke throat tattoo. Who am I

67
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 1: to judge anybody? But people just are very, very overly

68
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: offended these days. And the people that are the most

69
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: offended are the ones that always always talking about like

70
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: how they want the world to be a better, more

71
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 1: peaceful place, but they're so angry about everything. Yeah, it's like,

72
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: if you want peace, then being so angry. I'm curious, now,

73
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: when you're writing material, do you have that as a filter? Nope,

74
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: which I probably should. Yeah, I don't use it as

75
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: a filter. It's all about It's just all about the

76
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:26,280
Speaker 1: intention behind the words. Right. You gotta know people's intentions. Look,

77
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: if you don't like the joke, don't listen. Right, find

78
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: out Dave Chappell's intentions. I doubt that somebody who has

79
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: grown up like Dave Chappelle, grew up struggling black American

80
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: speaking out for rights of his own people and others.

81
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: I doubt that dude really wants to underestimate the struggles

82
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: that you go through. I feel like he has a

83
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: pretty good understanding of it, you know. I also feel

84
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: like he enjoys making jokes about whatever. He enjoys pushing

85
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 1: the edge. He enjoys embracing what people hate about him,

86
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, and that's kind of fun to do. Sometimes

87
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 1: it's to be like, yeah, you hate me, Okay, here's

88
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: a joke on it, and I bet I can make

89
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: you laugh with one of them, and then you're really

90
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: going to be pissed. And that's kind of what he does. Also,

91
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: he has enough money that it doesn't matter, right like

92
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: he does, he doesn't care. He literally has no fear

93
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: about it, and he doesn't need to. For him, he's

94
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: got nothing to lose. He doesn't have to watch his

95
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: mouth because he's worried about a paycheck, right, so he

96
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: can say whatever he wants. And people are walking off

97
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: the job at Netflix because of the special, and Netflix

98
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: actually fired the organizer of a plan to employee walkout

99
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: that was sparked in response to the special. Netflix doesn't

100
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: care either. Netflix gives less fs than Chappelle. I mean,

101
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: that's risky. Well, it really depends on what they were doing,

102
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 1: if it was creating like a really negative work environment,

103
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: or you know, who knows what they're actually you know

104
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: what they were actually doing. So one thing for sure,

105
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: that person is definitely going to sue them Netflix, Oh

106
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: for sure they are, and then they're going to settle

107
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: out of court, and then that person is going to

108
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: have so much money it doesn't matter what they say.

109
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: So the employees that Netflix have a list of demands

110
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: that you can check that out online at the jewelshow

111
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: dot com. And the thing that trips me out is

112
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 1: that community is very loud about how they don't like

113
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle, except the higher Special was devoted to his

114
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: friend who was trans who would come to all the shows,

115
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: who was a comedian as well, And they killed themselves

116
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: because they've stood by his side through all the beef

117
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: that he's had with them, and then their own community

118
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: started bullying them so much that they took their own life.

119
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: So I think Dave Chappelle's words don't have mean or

120
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,520
Speaker 1: ill intent behind them. I think it's just meant as

121
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: a way for him to process and a way to

122
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: just try to joke about a situation in his life

123
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,840
Speaker 1: because I can't imagine being that close to somebody like that,

124
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 1: you would actually have real hatred, all right? Text in

125
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: four one O six one, What do you think should

126
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: Netflix pull the special down? Or should Dave Chappelle do

127
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,159
Speaker 1: another one and go even harder. I would say probably

128
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: not
