And I've always 152 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: been a businessman my whole life. I put things together, 153 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: you know, like I slipped back and I pay attention. 154 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 2: I watch and I go h and then I assemble 155 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 2: the team and then we do what we need to do. 156 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,559 Speaker 3: You know, what I always thought was funny is that 157 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 3: people don't A lot of people might not know you 158 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 3: can do clean comedy. 159 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 2: Too, so true. They don't know that that's so true 160 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: without a And when I book people for my show, 161 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 2: I'm want clean comedians, and everybody gets upset, Oh you cursed, 162 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 2: but they're not understanding that. I call it comedy IQ. 163 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: You know, like basketball players have comedy IQU. Football players, 164 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: comedians need to have comedy IQ. Whoever the headline is, 165 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 2: the show is based on the headliner. Fat people should 166 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 2: get together in the room before the show starts. Don't 167 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 2: talk about this, don't talk about this, don't talk about that. 168 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 2: So it's everything blends together in comedy. So everybody's not 169 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: repeating the same topic because what I try to show 170 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 2: people is it a demonstration. Sit in the audience for 171 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 2: a minute, and by the time the last comedian goes 172 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 2: on and they talk about the same thing. So you remember, 173 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: But if everybody has structure, you say this, you say that, 174 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 2: could we all have so much material? Whoever the headliner, 175 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: that's his day. Whoever the headline is, that's his day. 176 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 2: You don't destroy the headliner's day. That's his moment. And 177 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 2: when you have you the headliner, you tell her. And 178 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 2: that's why we have to start teaching the other young 179 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 2: conference because they have no structure whatsoever. They just lost. 180 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 2: But then we don't also be in the space where 181 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 2: motherfucker like, just do you. I ain't because they don't know, 182 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 2: they don't see in the game. You know, the game 183 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 2: is structured tradition. It's very important because then everybody looks good. 184 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 2: And then you teach that person business right, that person 185 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: learns from you, and then he starts telling yo, we 186 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 2: got to do it this particular way, and we start 187 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 2: right now because nobody is given the young comics game. 188 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: Everybody's doing what they want to do and they think 189 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 2: we're crazy. 190 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 4: Well, where do you place you know, progression in because 191 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 4: a lot of this that you've been doing this for 192 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 4: forty years, yeah, forty one, forty one years, so a 193 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 4: lot of the that's a lot of you know, like 194 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 4: I always say, the extra sketchules that iPad at one point, yeah, 195 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 4: you have to account for, you know, progression. So for 196 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 4: a lot of the things that you know, a young 197 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 4: comic may hear you say, like, man, that was from 198 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 4: forty one years ago. 199 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,559 Speaker 1: We don't don't have to be that way that anymore. 200 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 4: What would you say to that? 201 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 2: Because it's here's the thing about life, even it doesn't 202 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 2: have to deal with comedy, just like in general. We 203 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 2: live in a society now where there's no discipline, there's 204 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 2: no structure, and this is the reason why we have 205 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 2: the problems that we have. Because parents had children but 206 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: didn't teach them nothing. So when you're not taught anythings, 207 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 2: people try to figure out on their own. Usually just 208 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 2: it's a small group of people. This this thing has 209 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 2: expand to something that I truly cannot explain. So what 210 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:06,719 Speaker 2: you're saying is right. You're going to get people who 211 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:10,959 Speaker 2: say that because their parents, their environment, their school system 212 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: didn't teach them how to do their due diligence, didn't 213 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 2: teach them how to structure things, and sit back and 214 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 2: comprehend first before you reply. People reply first before they comprehend. 215 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 2: And we all have knowledge to give people if they 216 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 2: really want to listen. And some people find out too late. 217 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 2: It's too late, but because of us, because you young 218 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:41,239 Speaker 2: guys is you guys are the new generation of this 219 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 2: new thing called comedy. I'm not saying you're the best comedians, 220 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 2: but you structures yourself to be in position to become 221 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:52,559 Speaker 2: the best. Does that make sense? Like you guys are nobody. 222 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 2: Every other comic is winging it trying to get to 223 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: what you guys are doing. But I was on your 224 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 2: first shows. I've seen how y'all put the work in 225 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 2: and made it happen again. You know, comics, what they 226 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 2: do is they destroy themselves. They don't have no leadership, 227 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 2: and everybody wants to get an agent or manager to 228 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 2: feel successful as an illusion. An agent and managers good 229 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 2: for certain comics because you have to ask yourself, what 230 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 2: do you want? Do you want to be famous or 231 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 2: do you want to be rich? And I took the 232 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,080 Speaker 2: money I didn't want. I didn't believe in auditions. I 233 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 2: didn't believe in sitting there reading and sit standing in 234 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 2: front of a camera and someone has to choose your future. 235 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 2: But I do that motherfucker money was real and that's 236 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 2: the way I went, And I got illmins behind my name. 237 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 2: Low key don't have to flex, don't have to, you know, 238 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 2: And I deal with my past. People bring up my 239 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 2: past a lot talking about stuff that happened in nineteen 240 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 2: eighty two, eighty three. But I've been reverent for years. 241 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,719 Speaker 2: So when you're good, people bring up your past and 242 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 2: make it try to devalue you. But I embrace it. 243 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 2: Look what I'm doing forty one years, still doing my thing. Shit, 244 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 2: it's crazy and I'm sixty six years old. 245 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: That's crazy. 246 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 2: I wanted to ask. 247 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 3: You, like, when you first started, what pushed you to 248 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 3: get into comedy? 249 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: Who was that person that pushed you into comedy money? 250 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 3: And who was some of your your ogs who was like, no, 251 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: come to the comedy club and come fuck with us 252 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 3: down here. 253 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna blow your mind.

I don't have to be in a relationship. Yeah, 433 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 2: my success is based on you got to know your 434 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 2: purpose in life. My purpose to change people's lives, and 435 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 2: I knew that as a young age. I changed everybody's life. 436 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 2: So when I met DL, I put DL on. When 437 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 2: I met Mike Apps, you know something special about them. 438 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 2: I bought them up to New York City Emman Godfrey 439 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 2: around around the same time. Because I was a business fan. 440 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: I was thinking twenty years down the line when I 441 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 2: snatched up Sandra Bullock and I snatched up Anthony Michael Hall, 442 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 2: John Luguzamo. See, I had all these people in the nineties, 443 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 2: so it was all a plan. What I didn't realize 444 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 2: I didn't plan for is that everybody started doing their 445 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 2: own motherfucker thing, you know. So that taught me a 446 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 2: valuable lesson. You could have your own plan, but people 447 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 2: got their own plan. So when everybody started doing everything, 448 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: I made a great deal of paper. But I wanted 449 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 2: the world to know me as a stand up. But 450 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 2: this is my first comedy tour with comedians ever. I 451 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 2: worked all the time, but I never did tour. I 452 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 2: never did tour because a lot of different things. 453 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: You know. 454 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 2: It could be haters, it could be agents like me 455 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,479 Speaker 2: and Chris Smith, even though that's my guy. Me and 456 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 2: Chris Smith used to bump hiss together because the streets 457 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 2: wanted me, but Chris had to run his business like 458 00:24:56,000 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 2: a business like if he had none comics and he 459 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 2: making money, he ain't go because nobody represented me. So 460 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 2: he's not gonna put me on the show if he 461 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 2: can make money with another comic that's on his roster. 462 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 2: So I never signed with nobody, but I was just 463 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,479 Speaker 2: getting it. I used to put up money. A lot 464 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: of people don't know me and my crew. We used 465 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:15,200 Speaker 2: to put up money on the tours that I was 466 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 2: even on, just so I could make a proper I 467 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 2: had to be involved, like that's the kind of person 468 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 2: I was. I had to be involved, and I've always 469 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,679 Speaker 2: been that way. How can I put money in this? 470 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 2: To be involved? Even when I look at the war 471 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 2: what's going on? Most people complaining, I look for the 472 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 2: defense contracts that was doing the bombing, and who makes 473 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 2: the bomb?

It was 734 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 2: an early one. I did all of them. Yeah, I 735 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,440 Speaker 2: did the first one. I had no idea, but I 736 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 2: did all of them. But the reason I'm bringing this 737 00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 2: up and bringing back I never really cared about the 738 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:25,239 Speaker 2: TV movie game for real, never cared about it. My 739 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 2: mother used to get mad at me because she would 740 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 2: be home watching TV and say, why you ain't calling 741 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 2: me and tell me that she was going to be 742 00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,840 Speaker 2: on I got the checker ready. 743 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: I don't care. 744 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,680 Speaker 2: But that's how my mom was. I didn't care. And 745 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 2: then when I studied, I pay attention to the acting actor. Well, 746 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 2: when I do panels, I try to discourage people for 747 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 2: being an actor and the actress. 748 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: Why would you do that? 749 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 2: Let me tell you why, because I believe I don't 750 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:57,680 Speaker 2: like other people to control your future. And the reason 751 00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 2: why I say that when you look at TV and film, 752 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 2: especially if I told you right now, go do her 753 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 2: a paper on a black actor and black actors in Hollywood, 754 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,279 Speaker 2: you will come back with a story that will be 755 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 2: very discouraging. But I try to teach people to go 756 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 2: to school, get a skill. You control your own life. 757 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 2: Because acting you competing against everybody because it's black. When 758 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,439 Speaker 2: you're black, it's even more rough. We all got They're 759 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 2: all gonna put us on the same role. And whoever 760 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 2: the casting director is, she likes one more. That person 761 00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:36,839 Speaker 2: got the job and that's going to create it. Now, 762 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 2: why is this? The illusion in life is when you 763 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 2: see people on TV, you think they're rich, and then 764 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 2: you see a lot of stars they working. Now they broke, 765 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 2: they broke, but they work. Yeah, it's a difference between 766 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 2: working and broke. You know, I see what I'm saying, 767 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 2: Get it, because my goal is how it's not how 768 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 2: much money you make, it's how much money you keep 769 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 2: and what do you have when you leave this world. 770 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 2: A lot of people don't have insurance, so they got 771 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 2: to have go fund me. They a lot of people 772 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:05,799 Speaker 2: got to go into a shelter because they don't have 773 00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 2: the proper They wasn't prepared for elderly. Being an elder 774 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 2: got depends on your daughter or your son to wipe 775 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 2: your ass to take care of you. I want when 776 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 2: I touched the world, people listen to me. I want 777 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 2: to prepare you for something that you don't see yet. 778 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:22,680 Speaker 1: You know. 779 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 2: My analogy is, can you see down the field? What 780 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 2: is down the field? Most athletes, average comedians, average basketball players, 781 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:40,400 Speaker 2: average football players only see what's around them. Let me 782 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 2: put you up on a game. Joe Montana, Tom Brady 783 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 2: saw the stadium. They can see the field.

I try to teach people to know their numbers. 1207 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:47,960 Speaker 2: You know, should know your blood pressure, should know what 1208 01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:51,320 Speaker 2: your cholesterol situation is. You know all these things and 1209 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 2: when if you go every three or four months, it 1210 01:06:54,840 --> 01:06:58,480 Speaker 2: can give you train your brain to be prepared. Off 1211 01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:00,880 Speaker 2: you it somethings off just a little. You worked cards 1212 01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:03,560 Speaker 2: like athlete, if you want to win this championship, you 1213 01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:05,640 Speaker 2: put the work in e good so that when you 1214 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:08,840 Speaker 2: go back to that doctor, your numbers are where they 1215 01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:11,360 Speaker 2: need to be. And that would be my advice to 1216 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:16,360 Speaker 2: teach young men to start doing. Because let's take Tommy 1217 01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:20,680 Speaker 2: from Martin. He died of aneurysm. But when you think 1218 01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 2: of average they could bring But then that's where people 1219 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:26,520 Speaker 2: are wrong. See, his analysm happened in the stomach, and 1220 01:07:26,560 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 2: people don't know that exactly. He died of an aniurysm 1221 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 2: in his stomach. So I put people up a game 1222 01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:37,200 Speaker 2: about going to this thing called Lifeline screening. It's like 1223 01:07:37,240 --> 01:07:40,120 Speaker 2: one hundred and sixty nine dollars and Lifeline screening they 1224 01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:42,480 Speaker 2: put you, put these machines on you, like taking your 1225 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 2: car to get it checked out, and they check your blood. 1226 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:49,640 Speaker 2: They check if a candidate for a stroke. And I 1227 01:07:49,760 --> 01:07:51,680 Speaker 2: go there once a year, like I remember the shit 1228 01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:56,160 Speaker 2: and everything comes back normal. Everything is already all right. 1229 01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 2: And that's the stuff that our black men and women's 1230 01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:02,840 Speaker 2: just uh going at a young age to know your numbers, 1231 01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,640 Speaker 2: know of your candidate for sof and google it life 1232 01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:10,240 Speaker 2: Line screening and you'll see it. It's an amazing situation 1233 01:08:10,640 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 2: that they don't share with the public. Just some shit 1234 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,680 Speaker 2: you got to find out, which is crazy. But that's 1235 01:08:15,680 --> 01:08:19,679 Speaker 2: why we have these type of platforms to teach. Yeah, 1236 01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:21,800 Speaker 2: you know, to teach and these are things I've learned 1237 01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:24,200 Speaker 2: in life. And I put a lot of people up 1238 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 2: on it. And then I was doing this program in 1239 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:31,080 Speaker 2: Ohio getting is called the Walk and they gave out 1240 01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:35,000 Speaker 2: free exams to check people. So one day I'm in 1241 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,439 Speaker 2: the mall. I tell the gentlemen to come. He comes. 1242 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:40,240 Speaker 2: The next day he has to go. They rush into 1243 01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:44,479 Speaker 2: the hospital. Rushing to the hospital says his life. He 1244 01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 2: still comes to every comedy show that I do in Columbs, Ohio. 1245 01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 2: Every Thanksgiving shows that he lost weight, looks good, looks 1246 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 2: better than me and boom he say always say thank 1247 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:56,760 Speaker 2: you for saving my life. His name is Michael. Shout 1248 01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 2: out to Mike. 1249 01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:00,639 Speaker 1: That's amazing. 1250 01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:04,479 Speaker 3: Take your help seriously. Go see the doctor. Yeah, go 1251 01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:07,439 Speaker 3: get you a liquid IV.

So me putting two and two together, 1385 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,519 Speaker 2: I said, people got to start young. It's not something 1386 01:14:56,600 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 2: you change up at forty forty five, because if you 1387 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:04,439 Speaker 2: went that long, damage is that you got to start 1388 01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:10,439 Speaker 2: this ship as a youngster. Just give up or give up, 1389 01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:11,639 Speaker 2: give up on getting clean. 1390 01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:14,719 Speaker 1: No, no, no, not getting clean on life. 1391 01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:19,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, like I'm talking about, you're done just mentally decided that. 1392 01:15:21,439 --> 01:15:24,800 Speaker 2: See and at the end of the day, Yeah, but 1393 01:15:26,520 --> 01:15:29,519 Speaker 2: we talked about motivating and now what I what I 1394 01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:32,599 Speaker 2: realized that sixty six people just need money. So that's 1395 01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:34,600 Speaker 2: another thing. They need money. They need to know they 1396 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:37,559 Speaker 2: need money. Because when you have money, you can pay 1397 01:15:37,600 --> 01:15:40,040 Speaker 2: for your rent, you can have a nice bad you 1398 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 2: can have a nice car. I'm not saying you gotta 1399 01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:44,720 Speaker 2: be rich. It doesn't need to be financially literate. That's 1400 01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:47,280 Speaker 2: the same thing. It's difference now for financially literatey and 1401 01:15:47,280 --> 01:15:50,360 Speaker 2: have mighty different things. Financial literally means you have knowledge 1402 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:52,320 Speaker 2: of money, but you don't have money. You got to 1403 01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:57,240 Speaker 2: have money because it builds a article that being broke 1404 01:15:57,360 --> 01:16:00,599 Speaker 2: is equivalent to high blood pressure the heart worse than 1405 01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:03,680 Speaker 2: smoking cigarette works and smoking cigarettes. You got the So 1406 01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:05,840 Speaker 2: we want to put people How can we put money 1407 01:16:05,840 --> 01:16:10,280 Speaker 2: in people's pockets? So I started this program called Tkgovconway 1408 01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:17,439 Speaker 2: dot com is teach people how to be government contractors. Right, 1409 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:20,439 Speaker 2: And I tell people to watch the webinar and see 1410 01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:22,200 Speaker 2: if this is what you want to do, because if 1411 01:16:22,240 --> 01:16:24,640 Speaker 2: you're on the computer all day you're doing certain things. 1412 01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:28,479 Speaker 2: This is the thing for you. My friend Bolo and 1413 01:16:28,560 --> 01:16:32,120 Speaker 2: all of them out of Chicago put them on motherfucker 1414 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:34,240 Speaker 2: May over six hundred thousand US and six months. Now. 1415 01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:36,680 Speaker 2: People don't understand government contractor they think they got so 1416 01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:37,880 Speaker 2: they product. 1417 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:38,280 Speaker 1: No. 1418 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:41,719 Speaker 2: What they people don't know is the government hires people 1419 01:16:42,520 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 2: to do things for them. So let's use this example. 1420 01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:48,479 Speaker 2: Let's say school starts and the government needs you to 1421 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:54,400 Speaker 2: buy ten thousand pencils. You know you need seven thousand 1422 01:16:54,640 --> 01:16:57,280 Speaker 2: to get this, you know, but you to have to 1423 01:16:57,280 --> 01:17:01,280 Speaker 2: seven thousand. My company pays you to seven thousand because 1424 01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:05,719 Speaker 2: the profit on the pens is probably one hundred grand. 1425 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:09,720 Speaker 2: And this the knowledge that most of our people don't have. 1426 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:13,160 Speaker 2: And I tell people a time to get an idea. 1427 01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:17,600 Speaker 2: Watch war Dogs. Oh here you see. War Dogs was 1428 01:17:17,680 --> 01:17:21,760 Speaker 2: about government contract because they outbid certain people but made 1429 01:17:21,760 --> 01:17:24,559 Speaker 2: a lot of money. So what you're do with TKV 1430 01:17:24,760 --> 01:17:27,960 Speaker 2: comoy dot com you're bidding but dollar And I'm not 1431 01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:29,439 Speaker 2: a fan of Donald try to make sure we clear 1432 01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:31,760 Speaker 2: when I say this, but Donald Trump put into the 1433 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:35,280 Speaker 2: government for government contract on one point seven trillion dollars 1434 01:17:35,320 --> 01:17:39,160 Speaker 2: for next year. They need the people and I'm telling you, 1435 01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:43,400 Speaker 2: everybody in this room or whatever, look at TKGUV, Comway 1436 01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:45,760 Speaker 2: dot com. If you could put the work in, if 1437 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:49,600 Speaker 2: you're really serious about if you really like making motherfucking money, 1438 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:50,439 Speaker 2: this is it. 1439 01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:53,200 Speaker 4: But see, a lot of people don't know what making 1440 01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 4: making money is. 1441 01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:57,200 Speaker 1: It's a lot of people don't know. 1442 01:17:57,800 --> 01:18:02,680 Speaker 4: Like something that I always say is it's a convenience 1443 01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:05,280 Speaker 4: for a lot of people to be broke because their 1444 01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:08,040 Speaker 4: only problem is getting some money.

Way back when I 1530 01:22:58,240 --> 01:23:01,559 Speaker 2: was coming up, when I saw the Kadashians blow up, 1531 01:23:03,400 --> 01:23:08,479 Speaker 2: I saw the level of education and common sense on 1532 01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:12,560 Speaker 2: the decline. When I read stuff all the time, I 1533 01:23:12,680 --> 01:23:16,120 Speaker 2: see that a lot of kids in the seventh grade 1534 01:23:16,600 --> 01:23:21,040 Speaker 2: are reading under a third grade reading level in this 1535 01:23:21,160 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 2: country seventy seventy s.

I teach people trying to get an 1540 01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:43,840 Speaker 2: LLC EI IN. They think it's a motherfucker game. The 1541 01:23:43,880 --> 01:23:45,439 Speaker 2: reason why you want to have an LLC and a 1542 01:23:45,520 --> 01:23:48,760 Speaker 2: EI IN because you would have been prepared for the 1543 01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:52,080 Speaker 2: PvP loans back in the day. But we're not taught 1544 01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:54,040 Speaker 2: that in school. See, when we graduate from high school, 1545 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:55,960 Speaker 2: everybody should know how to do their own income tax. 1546 01:23:56,280 --> 01:23:59,439 Speaker 2: Everybody should have an LLC, an ei N and have 1547 01:23:59,520 --> 01:24:02,960 Speaker 2: a small farm in they backyard, because we sure you 1548 01:24:03,040 --> 01:24:07,240 Speaker 2: have to depend on people for your food. So we 1549 01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:09,880 Speaker 2: go out here and we ask people to hire us 1550 01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:12,360 Speaker 2: for their job. When I see people go to get 1551 01:24:12,360 --> 01:24:16,120 Speaker 2: an oscar and then black people get upset and say 1552 01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:21,360 Speaker 2: they should give more black awards. That's like coming into 1553 01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 2: your house and tell you how you you should change 1554 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:26,720 Speaker 2: the paint in your home.

See, the Oscar is not 1559 01:24:39,800 --> 01:24:42,799 Speaker 2: the Oscars because it is what it is. Louis Autine, 1560 01:24:43,439 --> 01:24:45,760 Speaker 2: Gucci is all this because they've been around one hundred years. 1561 01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:49,080 Speaker 2: They stand.

You all 1723 01:34:05,800 --> 01:34:09,120 Speaker 2: remember how your home is left whoever walks in there 1724 01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:14,080 Speaker 2: after you die.

It Smalls is my good friend. 1731 01:34:36,680 --> 01:34:39,519 Speaker 2: And that's why I say worries are powerful because them 1732 01:34:39,560 --> 01:34:44,600 Speaker 2: two talked about death.
