Speaker 1: got that s we ain't long and he did too,
Speaker 1: and we went and we went the business, get to
Speaker 1: god own truck and everything, and he went behind my
Speaker 1: back had another truck again. All this funny stuff went good.
Speaker 1: An accountant was out me everything, and all I am.
Speaker 1: I'm left with nothing. I had to I had to
Speaker 1: even fail where I was living at. I'm back with
Speaker 1: my parents, like I'm starting. So y'all, y'all didn't have
Speaker 1: a contract with each other. No, he was my own boy. Me.
Speaker 1: We and him went through like three jobs together, you know.
Speaker 1: He introduced me. We met at the same job. He
Speaker 1: found another one, got me on, and then I found
Speaker 1: a prod of one so we could get our class
Speaker 1: A cels and I brought him with. I just wanted
Speaker 1: your own boys. I just want to say, man, I
Speaker 1: had started a business with somebody I was. I don't
Speaker 1: known since I was like it in fifth grade. But
Speaker 1: you know, in the future, because I do feel bad
Speaker 1: that this happened to you. Make sure you do an
Speaker 1: operating agreement when you start a business with somebody, because
Speaker 1: you have to have your paperwork right. You never know
Speaker 1: what might happen that way, legally you'll be able to say,
Speaker 1: but even though you could be best friends, family members, married,
Speaker 1: but if you do have a business together, do make
Speaker 1: sure you have an operating agreement and have a real
Speaker 1: lawyer invest in that because when things go left, you
Speaker 1: need to make sure. And a lot of times things
Speaker 1: do go left in business. You don't even want to
Speaker 1: have to have that conversation. It's just all in the paperwork. Yeah.
Speaker 1: See now I feel now it's like, you know, I
Speaker 1: want to get back to that state. Like I said,
Speaker 1: I'm sort for Brown. I ain't never, I ain't giving up.
Speaker 1: But right now you've got something to prove. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I won't get back to that stage, but I want
Speaker 1: to do it. I mean I'm gonna do it myself.
Speaker 1: You know you got this. You learned a lot, You
Speaker 1: learned a lot, yea, Yeah, I already taking a L.
Speaker 1: Right Yeah no, yeah, you took it L. But that
Speaker 1: L also means learning from it. Yeah, it's a learning experience.
Speaker 1: Good luck, brother, Hello, who's this? What's up? Man? It's
Speaker 1: big room and man St Louis absour but roaming get
Speaker 1: it off a chap, bro man. I just want to
Speaker 1: say first off Man, appreciate everything y'all do love all
Speaker 1: the y'all, especially my girl answer thee but her the
Speaker 1: announcement for the super Bowl performances, man, and I was
Speaker 1: like you, I wasn't hype man, and then get on
Speaker 1: the radio. We got this negative Nancy Charlotmagne, the kids
Speaker 1: are Man, it's kind of you know, ain't the wrong
Speaker 1: that performances? Man, I think it's gonna be a good show.
Speaker 1: Let me let me let me ask you a question, sir,
Speaker 1: Why do you think it's negative to ask why our
Speaker 1: legends in hip hop have to share a stage collectively
Speaker 1: when you got people like the Katie Perry's of the
Speaker 1: world and whoever else who don't even have the resume
Speaker 1: they do, they get their own solo show. And I
Speaker 1: asked the question. I said, I wonder if that was
Speaker 1: a prerequisite in performing, because they don't let acts like
Speaker 1: that performance to super Bowl, Let's be clear. So I
Speaker 1: was wondering, was that a prerequisite? Are you know? I
Speaker 1: just asking a question, that's all. Besides besides maybe like
Speaker 1: Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston, it's always been shows where
Speaker 1: artists are coming home with rock groups with rappers out
Speaker 1: there with him. So this ain't the first time that happened. Man.
Speaker 1: Everybody except Marry is from Cali. Man, so Emm is
Speaker 1: not from there's from Detroit. Shout from there. But then
Speaker 1: he's been on all West Coast music. That's straight. That's
Speaker 1: not true either. But my point is if you're not
Speaker 1: wondering that, then you're just not thinking. I was just
Speaker 1: wondering why they had to do it as a collective.
Speaker 1: I love the show. I think it's a great lineup,
Speaker 1: but I'm just wondering why you had too. Man. I
Speaker 1: love you too, dog, I appreciate it, but thank you
Speaker 1: for calling in. I said this morning. When I heard that, man,
Speaker 1: I was hyped, and Bro, you from Saint Louis. Correction, Uh,
Speaker 1: he's from Saint Louis, right, yeah, yeah, start look look
Speaker 1: at look at property in Saint Louis. Real estate in
Speaker 1: Saint Louis is at a good price right now, and
Speaker 1: it's starting to increase a lot. So look at real
Speaker 1: estate in Saint Louis. That's my next stop. All right,
Speaker 1: right on, Man, make an announcing when you're coming at y'all.
Speaker 1: Do a seminar and something. I definitely want to be
Speaker 1: a part of it. Now, I ain't doing no seminar.
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you to start looking at property in
Speaker 1: Saint Louis. Start googling, go to the website because I'm
Speaker 1: hearing there's a lot of great deals and they're starting
Speaker 1: to build up the city a lot more. Well, maybe
Speaker 1: you should do a seminar there then maybe, but thank you, brother,
Speaker 1: get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five
Speaker 1: one oh five one. If you need to vent phone
Speaker 1: lines a wide open, call us up. Now. It's the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody's DJ
Speaker 1: Envy Angela yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: We got a special guest in the building, Uncle Ralph
Speaker 1: Ralph McDaniel. Ye hey, good to be here at Breakfast Club.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm honored right now. Congratulations. Thank you so much
Speaker 1: for the documentary on Video Music Box. Yeah, I watched
Speaker 1: it yesterday. I was I was hungover, so I was
Speaker 1: laying on the couch and I just turned it on.
Speaker 1: Oh good, thoroughly enjoyed it, enjoyed it to stay. It
Speaker 1: was really great here in the Tri State area. I
Speaker 1: remember it was Video Music Box and it was new
Speaker 1: York hot tracks. Yes, yes, yeah, you're showing your age
Speaker 1: now with New York. I have cable, right if I
Speaker 1: wanted to see videos, the only place back then you
Speaker 1: really could see it if you caught one of those shows.
Speaker 1: Yeah thirty one, Yes, Town thirty one and you know, look,
Speaker 1: this has been something that we've been wanting to do.
Speaker 1: I've been working on this project for ten years. So
Speaker 1: we went through a bunch of hoops to get to
Speaker 1: showtime and Massiphill and then Nas came in and said,
Speaker 1: I want to get this right. And I almost cried
Speaker 1: when he said that, because I was like, what are
Speaker 1: you talking about, bro? How do you go through all
Speaker 1: that footage? Yeah? Because you have a lot of footage. Now,
Speaker 1: if you don't know video music boxes, it's a video
Speaker 1: show that started off playing hip hop videos where nobody
Speaker 1: else would. Right, it was on it wasn't on cable,
Speaker 1: so it was Channel thirty one, one of the high channels,
Speaker 1: and after school we'd all run home to go watch it. Yes,
Speaker 1: but you have footage of years. Man, how did you
Speaker 1: go through the footage to decide what you're gonna put
Speaker 1: in this documentary? Because the documentary was what ninety minutes.
Speaker 1: Ninety minutes. Yeah, it went to me for three hours
Speaker 1: and it would have been interesting, but you know, showtime
Speaker 1: was like easy, take it, easy path. So but you know,
Speaker 1: we filled up that ninety minutes with so much stuff,
Speaker 1: and you know, so many interviews were left on the
Speaker 1: editing floor. It was difficult to really shave it all
Speaker 1: down to ninety minutes. But you know, you got the
Speaker 1: eighties and the nineties. I said, the nineties are super important.
Speaker 1: Let's make sure that we got the nineties and makes
Speaker 1: make sure we got them more of that than the eighties,
Speaker 1: because there's a lot more people around from the nineties,
Speaker 1: so let's touch on that. And I liked the nineties
Speaker 1: era myself. About perspective, such a such a full circle
Speaker 1: moment for you to you didna this first video? Yes,
Speaker 1: and then for him to be executive producing this with
Speaker 1: with massive pill man, how did that feel? Um Naas
Speaker 1: came in and I looked at him and I said,
Speaker 1: you know, you know, this is something that I think
Speaker 1: you're going to enjoy. And originally he was the executive producer,
Speaker 1: he wasn't the director, and then he's somewhere in the
Speaker 1: middle set. Now I'm going to direct this and I
Speaker 1: want to get this right, Ralph, and and I just was,
Speaker 1: you know, it was, you know, like I did. It
Speaker 1: ain't hard to tell. The first single Wolf of Illmatic.
Speaker 1: I directed that and this thing called it ePK, which
Speaker 1: was really the thing that really broke NAS in New
Speaker 1: York because it was like an interview with all the
Speaker 1: producers and all the people that were involved. I went
Speaker 1: to his house hung out in Queensbridge. It was just
Speaker 1: like a little short documentary that I did not So
Speaker 1: now he's doing, you know, my thing, and I'm like bugging.
Speaker 1: I'm like wow, like this is the God. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: one of those things. It's like, Yo, you never know
Speaker 1: who's gonna be who. That's why you should show everybody.
Speaker 1: Everybody love key key. You know. We see people all
Speaker 1: the time that come up, and I always show people
Speaker 1: respect because I don't know, first of all, because I'm
Speaker 1: from the street and I understand respect the street, you know,
Speaker 1: because we got to go out there in these in
Speaker 1: these blocks all the time, you know, and I'm like,
Speaker 1: we don't want no problems out here, so I never
Speaker 1: know who's who, and let's continue to respect him. And
Speaker 1: I think that people say, man, you be out here,
Speaker 1: you know, you on the av and you in this place,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, you don't got no bodyguards. They'd be
Speaker 1: looking around like where do I'm like, I'm good, what's up.
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask that you ever got into any
Speaker 1: any any problems because like with Fat Joe said under
Speaker 1: the documentary, yeah, you know, I'm on my block, and
Speaker 1: they say Video Music Box got a party down the block.
Speaker 1: And you were in the Bronx, You went in Brooklyn,
Speaker 1: you went to la you went to you went to
Speaker 1: the hood, you on Jamaica Avenue, you you were in
Speaker 1: the hoods. Did you ever have a problem at all? Um,
Speaker 1: you know, we probably did. But my man Beasts, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you highlighted them in the day. Yeah, but Beast is
Speaker 1: not like my security. He was my friend, you know,
Speaker 1: like we weren't like you know people. He did security
Speaker 1: for all these other people like that. You know, he
Speaker 1: became known for White Claugh and everything. And he's known.
Speaker 1: He's in the shot his movie and everybody knows him
Speaker 1: for shot is because he blows up the whole place
Speaker 1: is he's acting, right. But but Beast was official, you know,
Speaker 1: you know, he's official cat, you know, and and so
Speaker 1: we kept guys like that. They just hung around it.
Speaker 1: I tell you tell people this, A lot of not beasts,
Speaker 1: but a lot of the other guys that worked with
Speaker 1: us all had come home from jail. They needed an opportunity,
Speaker 1: and I said, loo, I'm gonna give you'all opportunity to
Speaker 1: work with me, but you can't screw it up, you know.
Speaker 1: And most of those guys took it and ran with
Speaker 1: it and did the right thing. Now, Video Music Box
Speaker 1: was really just in the Tri State area, but people
Speaker 1: knew about it from all over. Why do you think
Speaker 1: it never ended up going national? Well, in the dock,
Speaker 1: I said that. I went to MTV and there was
Speaker 1: this concert called The Fresh Fresh and I went there
Speaker 1: and I was like, I saw a mixture of everybody,
Speaker 1: so white people, black people, Asian people. I was said, Oh,
Speaker 1: this is happening right now. And I went to MTV
Speaker 1: and they were like, no, Middle America is not ready
Speaker 1: for this, Ralph, you know, it's not happening right now.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, there's a tour, it's going out. I
Speaker 1: got the videotapes, take a look at it. And they
Speaker 1: were like, no, you don't. You need to pull out
Speaker 1: the tapes, It's okay, we already know what we're gonna do.
Speaker 1: And then two years later they did, you know, MTV
Speaker 1: raps and you know, and people thought, oh, you got
Speaker 1: me tight right now, And I wasn't tight then. I
Speaker 1: was gonna type the first time because I knew that
Speaker 1: it was happening already and they could have had to
Speaker 1: jump on it. So my whole career I've been a
Speaker 1: little bit early. But you know, whatever it was gonna
Speaker 1: be was what it's gonna be. How did you get
Speaker 1: paid original from Video Music Box because there was no
Speaker 1: commercial We was doing three or four parties in the night,
Speaker 1: you know, and you know, just walking away with the
Speaker 1: money and going, okay, we're good. Yeah, you're explaining the
Speaker 1: ductor you never actually made money off the show? No, no,
Speaker 1: because it was at first it was on a PBS
Speaker 1: channel and so it was non commercial, which was great
Speaker 1: really because it gave us the opportunity to educate where
Speaker 1: you know, you can't really do that in commercial world,
Speaker 1: Like we had no time for that. We got a
Speaker 1: round commercials, bro we ain't trying to help the community,
Speaker 1: you know, you know, we we wanted to do a
Speaker 1: lot of that and we did do that in the show.
Speaker 1: So it was a balance of both and that's how
Speaker 1: we got through, um, you know, being on that station.
Speaker 1: We got more with Uncle Ralph, Ralph McDaniels when we
Speaker 1: come back. Of course, he's the creator a video music box.
Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club. Good Morning, the Breakfast Club Morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the Gay, we are
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Uncle Ralph Charlomagne.
Speaker 1: You know, you got the video of bigging NAIs Freestyle
Speaker 1: and you know Jay and Big in the club all great,
Speaker 1: But what is your most prized piece of footage. M hmm.
Speaker 1: That's a good question. Um. I think for me, Um,
Speaker 1: it's probably Big and Jay when they did the My
Speaker 1: Birthday because that was really kind of like out of
Speaker 1: the blue and Jay came and was hosting it and
Speaker 1: they and they were both at the early stages of
Speaker 1: their career. Was like the beginning of Rockefeller and the Big,
Speaker 1: you know, beginning of Big, you know at Bad Boy
Speaker 1: and and they just in the place was crowded. You know,
Speaker 1: this is when people got dressed up and they danced
Speaker 1: at clubs. Remember that, and you know, it was just
Speaker 1: one of those nights where you were like, I couldn't
Speaker 1: call that any better than that. That was That was
Speaker 1: a beautiful night. You know. It was like everybody, your
Speaker 1: peers were there, you know, just you know, one of
Speaker 1: those one of those shows that was just it was perfect.
Speaker 1: But you didn't realize that those two individuals would become
Speaker 1: these mythical yeah, you know beings that they are now
Speaker 1: right right? You always say, you know, people always ask
Speaker 1: me what if they was alive? What would that be like?
Speaker 1: Between him and Jay and Nas? Like what would that
Speaker 1: you know, what would that look like? And I don't know,
Speaker 1: you know, like I mean Nas, you know is you know,
Speaker 1: like I'm a fan of like you know, poets and
Speaker 1: you know, and Naz is that that kind of spiritual
Speaker 1: kind of thing. You know. That's how when he started
Speaker 1: doing my thing, I was like, this is a spiritual dude, man,
Speaker 1: Like I'm gonna be in a good place, you know.
Speaker 1: I see. I used. All I was saying to Nas
Speaker 1: was we gotta have that hip hop soul bro. No,
Speaker 1: you know, because I watched documentaries and I'm like, this
Speaker 1: is mad generic right now? We noticed everybody if people
Speaker 1: notice all this information. We don't need to go through this.
Speaker 1: Let's get into different stories. And that's what I wanted
Speaker 1: to do with this, and he was like, got it,
Speaker 1: and he just started working and making sure that the
Speaker 1: direction took the right direction because we know, yeah, it
Speaker 1: was the Bronx, and we know there was dances, and
Speaker 1: we know graffiti, we know that already. We there's more
Speaker 1: stories to us than that. You know, to me, the
Speaker 1: soul comes from your footage, yes, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like your footage throughout gives it that warmth, makes it
Speaker 1: you know classic. Yeah, yeah, nah, I mean, and I'm
Speaker 1: I'm super happy that you know that we still have
Speaker 1: the footage because I thought about that too when you
Speaker 1: whenever you showed the room. I'm always think about what
Speaker 1: if he'd lost all of that the way really lost
Speaker 1: all that, right, Yeah, yeah, Rizz, you know, loss so
Speaker 1: many of his masters. But you know we've been in
Speaker 1: the last One thing about the pandemic is it got
Speaker 1: me to be around and really work on digitizing all
Speaker 1: of this content. So I just was like, yo, I
Speaker 1: gotta get this done. And we started a nonprofit, the
Speaker 1: Video Music Box Collection, and we started raising money for it,
Speaker 1: and you know, and people started, you know, giving us
Speaker 1: a couple of dollars. We're still raising money for I
Speaker 1: still need money for people, give me some money. But
Speaker 1: we that is what helped us get to the point
Speaker 1: where we have. You know, you can look at this
Speaker 1: content and be like, wow, it's pretty clear. You know
Speaker 1: thirty years ago. You know, you remember the DVD day
Speaker 1: all of that. You know, there's guy's out there that
Speaker 1: can have content that is super important. Man restore it,
Speaker 1: take care of it. Our history, hip hop history is important.
Speaker 1: Your history is Black history is important. But you know,
Speaker 1: sometimes our stuff just gets pushed to the side. There's
Speaker 1: been so many masters and visuals that have been lost
Speaker 1: over the years, and it's like, wait a minute, somebody
Speaker 1: just threw that away right because they didn't think it
Speaker 1: was important. Like who did that? You know happens all
Speaker 1: the time. A Part two, Since you said you do
Speaker 1: have a lot of footage that you weren't even able
Speaker 1: to use for this one. Yeah, I told um showtime, like, yo,
Speaker 1: we could do two, three more, you know, and some
Speaker 1: other stories that we got in the books. So that's
Speaker 1: on the plate for twenty twenty two. I would like
Speaker 1: to see artists talk about those moments more like I
Speaker 1: want to just hear nas go more in death on
Speaker 1: the Big thing because he said something and the doctor
Speaker 1: I didn't know. He was like, yo, him and Big
Speaker 1: with us to start a crew right called the good Fellas.
Speaker 1: And I was like, but then didn't him and Jay
Speaker 1: weren't they gonna start the commission? Big and Jay? So
Speaker 1: I'm like, right, what what what did that have? Look like?
Speaker 1: You know, looking at all the footad you ever see
Speaker 1: people in the crowd, you'd be like, look at that
Speaker 1: at artist now they're a huge rapper, Look at this person.
Speaker 1: You ever see some of those? Yeah, you know. I
Speaker 1: had that conversation with Jake Cole because he went to
Speaker 1: Saint John's University and was a fan of Video Music
Speaker 1: Box when he was at Saint John And Jake Cole

Speaker 1: Udini on the duck. I used that footage all the
Speaker 1: time too. Yeah, I get paid every time I use
Speaker 1: your footage. Yes, they you. How do you want video
Speaker 1: Music Box to be remembered? The whole idea of this
Speaker 1: you're watching Video Music Box film was to not be forgotten,
Speaker 1: because I could easily see how our history is forgotten
Speaker 1: and the importance of us just giving an artist a
Speaker 1: little bit of a break, a little bit of three
Speaker 1: minutes of a music video or a shout out is
Speaker 1: what cataposted all of these artists that we now know
Speaker 1: and love into stardom and you know, making a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of money. And they're certain people whenever they call,
Speaker 1: you should always pick up that phone and say, yes,
Speaker 1: what do you need me for? And you're one of
Speaker 1: those people, Ralph McDaniel, So he's going to put that

Speaker 1: a clip of me explaining what decractrification is, decracrification, the
Speaker 1: fine BI, the gods on his dictionary ass, the act
Speaker 1: of ridding a system of its tired ass, racist ass,
Speaker 1: white supremacist boom now was denazification of perfect solution to
Speaker 1: fixing Germany. No, but not celebrating racist was a step
Speaker 1: in the right direction to actual healing. Well, Decratifying America
Speaker 1: be easy. Hell no, because America really really worships his
Speaker 1: biggest and I mean, look, it can be done. It
Speaker 1: happened in Germany, like like I just explained, they got
Speaker 1: rid of, you know, pretty much all Nazi ideology from
Speaker 1: you know, everything from culture to education, the politics. America
Speaker 1: has never even taken a step to do that because
Speaker 1: we still celebrate racist We still celebrate biggests by having
Speaker 1: their names on buildings, by having highways named after them.
Speaker 1: And to me, you know, if you have you know,
Speaker 1: a name like jad Gohouva was still on the FBI building.
Speaker 1: That means that his ideologies still live in that building,
Speaker 1: which which we're discussing this this Friday on the God
Speaker 1: Don his truth. By the way, all right, what what
Speaker 1: in the two shoes do y'all think need to be
Speaker 1: to crackified? All right, well, let's go to the phone lens. Hello,

Speaker 1: made statements against leonor Ryan University. Basically I tied you
Speaker 1: guys on instagrams. If you could check, there's release statements
Speaker 1: and a lawsuit against the university for basically kicking girls
Speaker 1: off the basketball program for speaking against racism. Wow. See
Speaker 1: that's insane. That's what I don't understand. So it's really
Speaker 1: intense and like my friends whole career, um was almost
Speaker 1: the shambles. I mean right now she has other offers

Speaker 1: but they had nobody in the office. They fired me
Speaker 1: over some dumbnants. On top of that. I heard this once,

Speaker 1: story about how one of the drivers went into the
Speaker 1: garage to get the truck one day boom news haying
Speaker 1: the right off their trucks. He complained about it. Jesus Christ,

Speaker 1: He was on the beach. You know my son who
Speaker 1: is half white, must I say, and I'm a bully
Speaker 1: black woman when he was going a super tantrum. So
Speaker 1: at that time I took him to the bathroom of
Speaker 1: Bamboo Willie said, oh and talk to him. Well, there
Speaker 1: were two white women beamon on the door, trying to
Speaker 1: make your seam like I was abusing my son, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, what are you doing? And they're like, this day,
Speaker 1: what you want to do? You need to let him
Speaker 1: out of there. I was like, um, you need to
Speaker 1: mind your business. I'm talking to my son. I am
Speaker 1: the parent. Henter right. The bartender who was a white male,
Speaker 1: he runs in their bu guy like, oh, what's going on?
Speaker 1: Seeing them jumping all over me? Okay, so physically like
Speaker 1: they was trying to but they're not gonna have a
Speaker 1: tend to day, okay. And they was pretty much to
Speaker 1: show their white privilege and all this other stuff, and
Speaker 1: and pretty much got the bartender on their side. They're
Speaker 1: out there talking about serving drinks and all this. They're
Speaker 1: intoxicated obviously. Well yeah, and my sister we walked up
Speaker 1: to ask them what the issue was in the bathroom.
Speaker 1: The supposed to security who was talking into them like
Speaker 1: that was their friends. It's like screaming, and my sister saye,
Speaker 1: get the fout of here. I'm gonna get the police.
Speaker 1: You don't get the fout of here. Wow. My nephew

Speaker 1: talking to them, talking about don't look this way, boyd
Speaker 1: mercy so fast forwards they get the police. But the
Speaker 1: police more so exided with me because it was like
Speaker 1: he could tell they were intoxicated and they were jumping
Speaker 1: over me for no reason. He was like, I'm a
Speaker 1: parent too, so I appreciate that. So the Sheriff's Department
Speaker 1: of Pensacola Beach, Wow, but they definitely showed their white privilege.
Speaker 1: Well that's why de gratification of this country has to happen.
Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you, mama, thank you. Okay World
Speaker 1: one six zero YouTube, Lift me up, listen to my music.
Speaker 1: I appreciate y'all, love y'all right, thank you, And I

Speaker 1: good white people and crack ass crackers. And you know,
Speaker 1: good white people they don't like crackass crackers Eason, and
Speaker 1: they use their privilege to combat prejudice, and we thank
Speaker 1: them for that. But it's gonna take all hands on
Speaker 1: deck to really implement decratrification in this country. But America
Speaker 1: definitely needs to be decractrified. I guess that's the role
Speaker 1: of the story. That is definitely the role of the story.

Speaker 1: has a special guests joining us today. Indeed have Stacy Tisdale.
Speaker 1: Welcome back, Happy New Year, Happy New Year, Teas, pleasure
Speaker 1: to be here. Now. I'm gonna mess up your last
Speaker 1: name now right. No, I'm not saying it again. I
Speaker 1: got it right the first time. Yeah. The eye is
Speaker 1: like an e. Tell us how to make this money?
Speaker 1: They say you help people make money, tell us how
Speaker 1: to wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait.
Speaker 1: So okay, So my name is Terry. I teach people
Speaker 1: how to invest in stocks for income. And I'm so
Speaker 1: excited because I feel like people are ready for this now.
Speaker 1: Like twenty twenty, everybody realized their finances weren't quite in order.
Speaker 1: Then twenty twenty one they were like, Okay, let me
Speaker 1: start paying off my dad a little bit, maybe invest
Speaker 1: long term. And now twenty twenty two they're like, you
Speaker 1: know what, I got a little bit of savings. I
Speaker 1: have a little bit like ready to invest, but I
Speaker 1: don't know what to do with it. So that's where
Speaker 1: I come in. What did you learn? First? What did
Speaker 1: you learn all of this? Because this is stuff that
Speaker 1: you know, like you know, Charlemagne and I will talking
Speaker 1: behind the scenes. They teach these to our kids now,
Speaker 1: but we didn't have that knowledge. So where did you learn?
Speaker 1: How did you get into the love of stocks and
Speaker 1: making money? Honestly, I'm similar. I was born with single mother.
Speaker 1: We didn't know all this stuff either. But I went
Speaker 1: to a program in high school called Lead and it
Speaker 1: was where they took kids from all they all over
Speaker 1: the US that had good PSA T scores and then
Speaker 1: took us to business schools. So I went to Northwestern
Speaker 1: University and they took it to the Chicago Stock Exchange.
Speaker 1: So my senior year I had learned at Northwestern. Then
Speaker 1: Google had their IPO, And when they had their IPO,
Speaker 1: I asked everybody asked my mom, I asked my teachers.
Speaker 1: Nobody knew how to invest, and the shares were eighty
Speaker 1: three dollars. IPO, imagine that man, Like now they're almost
Speaker 1: three thousand dollars. Like my whole life would have been
Speaker 1: different if we had known how to invest. So that
Speaker 1: got me excited. Then I went to MT and said, well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna figure this out myself because nobody knew how
Speaker 1: to do it. Went to M I did not till now,
Speaker 1: and we didn't have money either. So I'm so much
Speaker 1: more accessible now too, with all these apps that make
Speaker 1: it a lot easier for people to be able to
Speaker 1: trade to definitely, and they don't have cost now, so
Speaker 1: now you can get in without the high commission feed
Speaker 1: so you can trade for free. There's no barrier to
Speaker 1: injury now. And you've got a whole sea change here,
Speaker 1: especially in our community. And that's what's so exciting. You
Speaker 1: have sixty percent of blacks under forty now invested in
Speaker 1: the stock market and the gap is closing now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the investment gap closed in the millennial generation. That's really
Speaker 1: making history. So we're starting this whole invest in You campaign,
Speaker 1: which we'll talk more about take your first trade challenge
Speaker 1: because we have participation now, but now we have to
Speaker 1: add education to that and teach people how the market works.
Speaker 1: And then we can really, particularly our community, cause US
Speaker 1: sea change if we just collect our forces and move
Speaker 1: them together. But I'm glad we're talking about this today
Speaker 1: because one, I've was the first black and the woman
Speaker 1: to report from the New York Stock Exchange way too
Speaker 1: long ago, and a lot of y'all new investors have
Speaker 1: never seen a bear market before, and we don't want
Speaker 1: you freaking out and pulling out in their bear market.
Speaker 1: So it's really important that we're having this conversation now.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm excited too, because a lot of people
Speaker 1: were scared coming into the last couple of weeks of
Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks of January, coming into twenty
Speaker 1: twenty two, the marks have been down and if people
Speaker 1: who are invested in stocks or crypto, they're hurting, right,
Speaker 1: And so now I think they're scared. And then like
Speaker 1: seven people, Black people are seven times more likely to
Speaker 1: pull out when it's bad, and you see all these
Speaker 1: articles that really scary, they'd be like bitcoin is crashing,
Speaker 1: you know, we don't know how long this is going
Speaker 1: to be around, and then some people doubt it, other
Speaker 1: people who have gotten rich off of it and been
Speaker 1: able to utilize it. So is it time to bube
Speaker 1: when you see everything falling? Yes? So, Warren Buffett says,
Speaker 1: so one. A lot of black people only think that
Speaker 1: you can make money in the stock when they're going up,
Speaker 1: but you can actually make a lot of money when
Speaker 1: it's coming down. That's called short selling. Everybody says buy low,
Speaker 1: sell high. You can actually do that in the other
Speaker 1: like you can sell high first and then buy low
Speaker 1: second and still make the difference. Same thing. That's called
Speaker 1: short selling. Yesterday I made forty six thousand dollars because
Speaker 1: I was able to short sell. Well, we made money
Speaker 1: going up and then on the way down. Before that,
Speaker 1: we made money going down. Could you walk us the
Speaker 1: way a short cell? Yes. Say you borrowed my cell
Speaker 1: phone and then you sold it to dj Envy for
Speaker 1: a thousand dollars. Now you go on eBay and you
Speaker 1: find the same phone for five hundred dollars. Well, you
Speaker 1: sold it for a thousand, you sold it high, but
Speaker 1: then you bought it back low for five hundred. You
Speaker 1: got to keep five hundred dollars. That makes sense, but
Speaker 1: all in one day you can do it over. It's
Speaker 1: trading just the same way you can trade sat okay. Yeah,
Speaker 1: So like, for example, if a lot of people were
Speaker 1: in Tesla recently, if they had sold at twelve hundred
Speaker 1: dollars and then when it came back down to a thousand,
Speaker 1: they could make that difference and then you pay taxes
Speaker 1: right when you pay taxes. But it's the same as
Speaker 1: you pay taxes on any job. So like I paid
Speaker 1: myself a salary from my course. It took out right.
Speaker 1: So maybe we know our taxes up here are are crazy.
Speaker 1: But let me see this. But you can reinvest back.
Speaker 1: If you reinvest and don't take it out of the
Speaker 1: stock market and put it somewhere else, then you don't
Speaker 1: have to pay taxes. Is that How does that work? Well,
Speaker 1: that's the same for real estate. Like if you you
Speaker 1: could buy a house sell as long as you put
Speaker 1: it back into another property, you ain't got to pay
Speaker 1: tax at that moment exactly. But with stocks you do
Speaker 1: still have to pay. You any realized gains, you're gonna
Speaker 1: have to pay taxes. You pay tax on what you earned.
Speaker 1: But I think just to take a step back for
Speaker 1: a second. There's a difference between trading and investing, and
Speaker 1: a lot of us we talk about the stock market,
Speaker 1: and I've always talked about the stock market is a
Speaker 1: great long term investment, which it is over time averaged
Speaker 1: about ten percent a year, which means like if you
Speaker 1: wouldn't invested one hundred dollars at the start of this
Speaker 1: pandemic and left it alone and not added anything else
Speaker 1: to it, it would have been one hundred and eighty dollars.
Speaker 1: A general rule of thumb for investing is that any
Speaker 1: money that you will not need in five years or
Speaker 1: less should be in stocks, and you should look at
Speaker 1: it long term, and that's when you wanted to build
Speaker 1: like a comfortable retirement and create financial security. Trading, what
Speaker 1: Terry is talking about is very different, and that's where
Speaker 1: we need, you know, people like her and people with
Speaker 1: her skills to walk us through that. She actually gives
Speaker 1: people a trading plan and a risk management plan, and
Speaker 1: I think that's why her course is sold over forty
Speaker 1: million dollars. You know, made over forty million dollars in sales.
Speaker 1: You of course made over forty million dollars in sales.
Speaker 1: It did I'm the number one investing course on teachable, well,
Speaker 1: number one course period out of hundreds of thousands of courses,
Speaker 1: and it's on investing how to invest for income? All right? Now,
Speaker 1: keep a lack. We have more with Terry Egioma in
Speaker 1: Stacey Tisdale, So don't hold it's the breakfast Club, go
Speaker 1: more forty. Everybody is DJ Envy Edge Lee Charlomagne the guy.
Speaker 1: We are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with
Speaker 1: Terry Egioma in Stacy Tisdale, Charlomagne, let me ask you
Speaker 1: a rich as a question, right, um for the average
Speaker 1: listener that's listening right now, all audience, and they want
Speaker 1: to invest, right. I think I read a study with
Speaker 1: like over fifty percent of all Americans are living paycheck
Speaker 1: to paycheck? How do they do that? So I think
Speaker 1: that there's prerequisite to when you start investing versus trading. Okay,
Speaker 1: I think as a as an investor, So like I
Speaker 1: saw you all had uyl and Market Mondays and Wall
Speaker 1: Street trappers, love all of them when you're and they
Speaker 1: teach long term investing. When you're investing, you can invest
Speaker 1: with any amount, like if you have hundred dollars, Hey
Speaker 1: go buy so OXL or AMD whatever educational purposes only
Speaker 1: not recommending stuff. But but if you're a trader, you're
Speaker 1: going to have to try to make a percentage of
Speaker 1: the cash you have. So I try to teach people
Speaker 1: to make one percent of their cash amount. So I
Speaker 1: think you do need about two thousand dollars in your account.
Speaker 1: That's why I said, now in twenty twenty two, I
Speaker 1: feel like people are ready. I feel like they've done
Speaker 1: the long term investing and now they have some money
Speaker 1: saved up and they want to make that work versus
Speaker 1: just putting it in a savings account. So then it's like, okay, well,
Speaker 1: how do I pay for the things that I want
Speaker 1: versus the things that I just have to settle for? So,
Speaker 1: for example, how do you pay for I saw y'all
Speaker 1: had change for change? How do you pay for your
Speaker 1: rent going up because of inflation? How do you pay
Speaker 1: for A guy had a hurricane, there was a hurricane item,
Speaker 1: you guys gave him money? Well, how do you pay
Speaker 1: for emergencies or daycare? I saw one of the girls,
Speaker 1: she had like eighteen hundred dollars she was paying for daycare, Like,
Speaker 1: how do you trade the money you have to pay
Speaker 1: for those things. So I do think it takes. You
Speaker 1: have to start with money at least two thousand in
Speaker 1: your account, and then your goal as a trader it's
Speaker 1: going to be to make one percent of that on
Speaker 1: a regular basis. I'm glad you said that. A lot
Speaker 1: of people just think you can. I don't know what
Speaker 1: they think, but you gotta have money to even do
Speaker 1: these things for trading, For investing, I mean an there's
Speaker 1: apps and out that you can invest long term. When
Speaker 1: it comes to trading, Like you're hearing all these stories
Speaker 1: of people hearing like get rid of quick the whole
Speaker 1: game stop thing, and they're doing things like taking out
Speaker 1: credit card debt and spending their whole life savings to
Speaker 1: try to get in on this trading thing. One, you
Speaker 1: should never do it without an education or a guide,
Speaker 1: and also never trade more money than you could afford
Speaker 1: to lose. But it's like it's it is like gambling,
Speaker 1: So you should talk about how to make it not gambling. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there are ways to protect your risk, but a lot
Speaker 1: of people just don't know about them. Yeah, So a
Speaker 1: big part of my trade and travel class is risk management.
Speaker 1: First step is. I'm a technical analysis trader, so I'm
Speaker 1: not just betting on something or not even use the
Speaker 1: word bet, but investing. It's not let's go right. My
Speaker 1: grandmama said at the barbershop, you know, it's like no,
Speaker 1: it's actually looking at healthy company. So first, that's one
Speaker 1: big part of it, what companies are investing in. Then
Speaker 1: we have to look at reward to risk race shows.
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at charts. I am a technical analysis trader.
Speaker 1: I hear a lot of people say like, oh, charts
Speaker 1: are too hard. I don't look at that. But if
Speaker 1: you want to have high probability, I know. I'm in
Speaker 1: my tea girl like we like, did y'all ever see
Speaker 1: the movie twenty one? It was about in my tea
Speaker 1: group that went in card Counted and then in Vegas.
Speaker 1: But like, one of the things he says is he's like,
Speaker 1: we don't gamble. We just take really high probability calculated moves.
Speaker 1: And that's what we're doing with charts. That's how you
Speaker 1: get more high probability calculated trades. So looking at your
Speaker 1: reward to risk in advance, you can actually calculate on
Speaker 1: a chart. When I get into this trade, the probability
Speaker 1: that I do well is three times my reward is
Speaker 1: three times my risk. Then the other part of it
Speaker 1: is there's something called a stop loss, like being able
Speaker 1: to put in um if it drops to a certain Yes,
Speaker 1: and that says, and I know you have an investing club,
Speaker 1: so you know this. But if it drops to a
Speaker 1: certain place, you can get out of the trade. I
Speaker 1: think a lot of people are getting into stuff with
Speaker 1: no exit strategy right and then, and it's an automatic
Speaker 1: thing too, like once it gets to this certain point,
Speaker 1: it'll pull out. Yeah, it'll let you know to pull out.
Speaker 1: You have that stop loss in in advance. You can
Speaker 1: calculate how much you're willing to lose. Trade and travel
Speaker 1: came from you traveling and trading. So can you talk
Speaker 1: about that? Yes, I was in education. My last job
Speaker 1: before I quit was assistant principle of elementary school. But
Speaker 1: I was miserable. But anyway, I decided that my ex
Speaker 1: strategy would be investing because I had learned about it
Speaker 1: in college. I had learned about it in high school. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and all I needed was three hundred dollars a day
Speaker 1: to replace my income. And you started with that's what's
Speaker 1: really important when we're talking about trading. She had a goal. Okay,
Speaker 1: I need to earn three hundred dollars a day, so
Speaker 1: that's how much she was going to risk. But also
Speaker 1: one of the things that so touching about you is
Speaker 1: you also wanted to trade because to cover your parents'
Speaker 1: medical costs. Yeah, well, let me finish this because I
Speaker 1: want to tell you about the trade and travel. Like
Speaker 1: I was finally able to quit my job and start
Speaker 1: traveling around the world, and people started asking me, well,
Speaker 1: how are you affording it? And it was I was
Speaker 1: trading stocks. I would trade to pay for the hotel room.
Speaker 1: I would trade. Okay, my flight is three hundred or actually, like,
Speaker 1: let's say I want to go to Greece. I calculated
Speaker 1: all this on Instagram, Like if y'all scroll scroll way
Speaker 1: down on Terry Geoma, Like, the trip to Greece was
Speaker 1: thirty five hundred dollars, So I traded to get there. Wow,
Speaker 1: I said, okay, this is how much the hotel room is.
Speaker 1: If I can make, you know, four hundred dollars to
Speaker 1: pay for the hotel, now I'm gonna I'm gonna want
Speaker 1: to eat when I get there, so I'm up trade
Speaker 1: to pay for the food, and that's how I traveled,
Speaker 1: and I was gone. I went to South Korea, Thailand
Speaker 1: for a month, Vietnam for a month, Australia, but all
Speaker 1: that time just trading what I needed to pay for
Speaker 1: the travel. And now people ask me to teach them,
Speaker 1: and now I'm teaching them how do you trade for
Speaker 1: what you want? I love the fact that you didn't
Speaker 1: stay in a job that you hated, because what happens
Speaker 1: is your growth resentment, and you was you was with kids,
Speaker 1: so you'd have been projecting all of that on those kids.
Speaker 1: So I really, I really respect that part of this story.
Speaker 1: Thank you. And I feel like I was because I
Speaker 1: remember this one little I had mainly black, black and brown,
Speaker 1: this one little Huspanic girl, she was cutest. One day,
Speaker 1: she must have seen me crying in the bathroom. She
Speaker 1: came and gave me this flower that she had made
Speaker 1: in class, and she just came in the biggest hug.
Speaker 1: I know they saw it. Well hopefully I was asking
Speaker 1: it good enough. But yeah, that's why you're a good trader,
Speaker 1: you exactly, And honestly, those skills helped you develop a
Speaker 1: course as well. You know what the biggest things that
Speaker 1: helped me develop the course were my mistakes when I
Speaker 1: first quit my job and was traveling full time. I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna pretend like it went well all the time.
Speaker 1: Like when I first quit, I had my biggest loss ever.
Speaker 1: I invested in Pandora, and Pandora stock just went straight down.
Speaker 1: But at the time, everybody says invest with what you know,
Speaker 1: and I was. It was on my phone and Pandora
Speaker 1: was going inside of the TV. And this is like
Speaker 1: Pandora stock it is not around anymore because they sold
Speaker 1: to Serious X him. So you can do this right.
Speaker 1: But like every like, I woke up overnight I had
Speaker 1: traded earnings thinking I was gonna be rich the next today.
Speaker 1: Woke up the next day and I had lost twenty
Speaker 1: six thousand in a day. And for an educator like
Speaker 1: I didn't have a ton of money. So I was
Speaker 1: crying thinking I had to go back to work. And
Speaker 1: the thing was, I realized all the things I had
Speaker 1: done wrong. My quantity size was too high. This is
Speaker 1: back to risk management quantity size. I had eight thousand
Speaker 1: shares and the thing was, I thought I was gonna
Speaker 1: be reached the next day. So eight thousand nine if
Speaker 1: I make a dollar I got no, but I lost,
Speaker 1: and so overnight it was down three dollars. I'm down
Speaker 1: twenty four thousand. So that first lesson is don't do
Speaker 1: what you can afford to lose, yes, and watch your
Speaker 1: quantity size in the course, actually have a formula. How
Speaker 1: do you calculate your quantity size? Then another thing that
Speaker 1: I did wrong was not having to stop loss. It
Speaker 1: fell and I didn't have any protection. Then I didn't
Speaker 1: have a plan of okay when I didn't even have
Speaker 1: a target in mind. So once it started falling, I
Speaker 1: just flipped out. I called my mom, was like, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna having to get a job again, and and I
Speaker 1: just let it go and it kept falling. That's right.
Speaker 1: That's why you need a trading plan so that you're
Speaker 1: not managed by your guts and emotion. But you know
Speaker 1: the steps. The biggest money hopefully more will come another day.
Speaker 1: But the biggest money flow I had in my life
Speaker 1: was when I worked at a technology firm and they
Speaker 1: gave us stock options. I remember, overnight I was like
Speaker 1: a millionaire on paper and these options went to whatever
Speaker 1: but I and I wasn't familiar with them, so I
Speaker 1: had no plan in place and started dropping and dropping,
Speaker 1: and you just get that mentality, Oh it'll go back up,
Speaker 1: Oh it'll do whatever went to nothing. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of people that are that's that's happening to them right now,
Speaker 1: especially with crypto and even some stocks. They've they've been
Speaker 1: told so long to just buy and hold, which is
Speaker 1: over time, a good strategy. But what what do you
Speaker 1: do for your life right now? You're rich on paper,
Speaker 1: but you're broken your real life. And that's why trading
Speaker 1: is important because we can help you to fund things
Speaker 1: in your life right now while the other things are
Speaker 1: still working. All right, Now, keep a lack. We have
Speaker 1: more with Terry Egioma and Stacy Tisdale, So don't move.
Speaker 1: It's to breakfast Club morning. Everybody's DJ Envy and Jela Yee,
Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We're still
Speaker 1: kicking it with Terry Egioma and Stacy Tisdale. Now, how
Speaker 1: much is your course? How much is the lesson? It's
Speaker 1: five thousand? Have a VP eight week program that's five thousand,
Speaker 1: but you can get in for half of that at
Speaker 1: twenty five and we have payment plans. I saw something
Speaker 1: and correct me if I'm wrong. You made over sixteen
Speaker 1: thousand people millionaires. That just no, all together, we've all
Speaker 1: those sixteen thousand people in the course are making millions,
Speaker 1: and they actually like show us screenshots of how they're
Speaker 1: realized profit, and they're like showing us. So we have
Speaker 1: this thousand dollars in a day club. If they make
Speaker 1: over a thousand dollars in a day, they send us
Speaker 1: their screenshots, send us their trade, and then we send
Speaker 1: them a plaque. So we know that we've had over
Speaker 1: sixteen hundred in that club that we've sent plaques to,
Speaker 1: and many more than just haven't sent in the screen shots.
Speaker 1: So we know if you got even a thousand people
Speaker 1: making a thousand dollars in a day, then that's a
Speaker 1: million dollars that we can generate in a day from
Speaker 1: trade and traveling. Now, for people who are like this
Speaker 1: is expensive, can you explain why it's worthwhile? Because the
Speaker 1: classes that I took were thirty thousand dollars, so the
Speaker 1: actual investing knowledge is actually really expensive. This is a
Speaker 1: discount to that. So when you look at the like
Speaker 1: what other classes are out there, and some people will say,
Speaker 1: well what about YouTube? Migraining told me sometimes you have
Speaker 1: to pay for convenience, Like, yes, you can go to YouTube,
Speaker 1: but it might take you a lot of time. You
Speaker 1: may not know what exactly you need. You get in
Speaker 1: too much information yet, what's true, what's not? So this
Speaker 1: is all into one class. I've already detailed out what
Speaker 1: you need in terms of how do you pick the
Speaker 1: right company, what's the risk management? How do you do charting?
Speaker 1: How do you do short sellings? Make money on the
Speaker 1: way down? How do you do gaps and globecks? How
Speaker 1: do you trade options? Like everything's in there. It's actually
Speaker 1: not much when you look at the their courses out
Speaker 1: there and then think about how much you can actually make. Right,
Speaker 1: A lot of the students within a couple pay for
Speaker 1: themselves back. Yeah, That's why I asked you about the
Speaker 1: sixteen dollars because those success stories are important because people
Speaker 1: are here that number and be like, well, she made
Speaker 1: forty million dollars. Who was she made rich? She's just hustling. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: and several of them have become millionaires. I do know
Speaker 1: some that I have made millions, but I just don't
Speaker 1: I don't want to say like, I don't want to say, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I made a whole bunch of millionaires. No, I've taught
Speaker 1: a lot of people how to make three hundred dollars
Speaker 1: in a day, two hundred dollars in a day, pay
Speaker 1: for which good money. It's about those goals and you
Speaker 1: don't have to do that way too. You can't take
Speaker 1: the course and not do the work. Goals and freedom,
Speaker 1: And I know when you first started trading, one of
Speaker 1: your goals was that you're like, your mother couldn't afford
Speaker 1: a anesthesia? Oh yeah, back to work, yes, for dignity.
Speaker 1: So um, anybody here had to ever do a like
Speaker 1: really expensive medical thing, like what operation? Pay for an operation?
Speaker 1: My mom was her dental work. She had to get
Speaker 1: like all your teeth taken out, and it was really expensive.
Speaker 1: I don't work. Yeah yeah, most insurance only covered I
Speaker 1: think like maybe a thousand dollars for clearing for root canal.
Speaker 1: Or if you pay for somebody's cosmetic it cost a
Speaker 1: last day that's out. The poet either what cosmetic? And
Speaker 1: just like she was in pain, but the doctor had
Speaker 1: told her that they were gonna do the surgery without anesthesia. Yeah,
Speaker 1: no way, but I thought she couldn't afford it. They
Speaker 1: were like, oh, well, you know anasc is gonna cost
Speaker 1: you like an extra five hundred dollars. The nurse was
Speaker 1: basically telling my mom like, well, you can't get this
Speaker 1: surgery because you can't afford it. And my mom, because
Speaker 1: I had actually given her money for her medical bills,
Speaker 1: was able to say, no, that's fine. I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: all four of them done at one time. And she
Speaker 1: told me, Terry. She called me something else, but she
Speaker 1: told me, Terry, money can't buy you happiness, but it
Speaker 1: can buy you dignity. I was able to be in
Speaker 1: that chair and speak up for myself because I could
Speaker 1: afford the surgery. How time consuming is it to trade?
Speaker 1: It depends what your goal is. So if your goal
Speaker 1: is to make two hundred dollars in the day and
Speaker 1: your account size is okay, you might be done in
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes. But I do say people should, especially in
Speaker 1: the beginning, you should budget at least four hours a day.
Speaker 1: If you can't do that, like as you start getting
Speaker 1: better and better, it'll go down. Like some people they'll
Speaker 1: do one hour in the beginning of the market and
Speaker 1: they'll trade that, or they'll trade that last hour of
Speaker 1: the market. I do think, like when I was an educator.
Speaker 1: I would look at my phone. In the beginning of
Speaker 1: the day, I'd go do whatever I had to do
Speaker 1: as a principle, come back check it at because you
Speaker 1: can trade in your phone. I would check it at
Speaker 1: lunchtime that didn't take long. And then at the end
Speaker 1: of the day at night before I went to bed,
Speaker 1: that's where I would do my real homework of looking
Speaker 1: at the stocks, looking at the news, looking at the charts,
Speaker 1: and then i'd be ready for the next day. Right,
Speaker 1: so when they open in the morning, you know what
Speaker 1: you want? Yep. So what's the call to action? I
Speaker 1: look here for a call to action today, I'm going
Speaker 1: to teach people how to actually get invested in take
Speaker 1: the first trade, okay, because I feel like there's a
Speaker 1: lot of people that are just scared and they haven't
Speaker 1: done it yet, and they're looking for like, Okay, I
Speaker 1: need somebody to like a teacher, to like walk me
Speaker 1: through step step. So we're gonna do a five day
Speaker 1: challenge and for five days live, I'm gonna be with
Speaker 1: the ladies and we're gonna like teach people, Okay, how
Speaker 1: do you open your account, how do you place the trade,
Speaker 1: how do you exit the trade? And this is so
Speaker 1: you can get the income, but so that when Google
Speaker 1: comes by the next person they won't miss it like
Speaker 1: I did. They'll know how to actually get in and out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the actual challenge, it starts January thirty first, and you
Speaker 1: can go to take your first Trade dot Com and
Speaker 1: start signing up now. And it's a five day challenge.
Speaker 1: And like Terry said, we're gonna the first day, you're
Speaker 1: gonna learn how to open up an account. Then we're
Speaker 1: gonna teach you a little bit about the markets. On
Speaker 1: the second day, then you're gonna learn how to buy
Speaker 1: a stock, learn a little bit more, and on the
Speaker 1: fifth day you're actually gonna sell a stock. And does
Speaker 1: it cost anything to sign up for the five day challenge?
Speaker 1: It actually does. It costs fifty five dollars Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: super super low. But we wanted to make sure that
Speaker 1: people did do some investment because you you actually are
Speaker 1: more dedicated when you pay something then if you don't
Speaker 1: do They said that about online dating too. They definitely
Speaker 1: give me your website again so people can get in
Speaker 1: touch with you and maybe they want the full course. Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you want the whole trade and travel course, go
Speaker 1: to Trade and travel dot com Trade. But if you
Speaker 1: want to get started with this five day challenge, which
Speaker 1: I'm doing too. By the way, I'm more of a
Speaker 1: long time investor, so I haven't done trading. I think
Speaker 1: you're gonna love it. And you don't have to have
Speaker 1: all of your money in one or the other. You
Speaker 1: can do both, right, Yeah, So I want to be
Speaker 1: diverted out and then you can learn how to make
Speaker 1: some income with a little bit of it, and as
Speaker 1: you become a better trader, then you can decide to
Speaker 1: move more there. What's the website again? Take your first
Speaker 1: trade dot com and if you want to see more
Speaker 1: about me. Yeah, everything is on trade and Travel, So
Speaker 1: YouTube Trade and Travel Instagram. It's Trade t r a
Speaker 1: d and all spilled out travel on Instagram too. I
Speaker 1: actually put I made a million dollars in a day,
Speaker 1: so I put up the screen shout of that too,
Speaker 1: so they can see how you do that. All right,
Speaker 1: I'm in. So you guys gonna take your first trade challenge?
Speaker 1: I am. And you said we should have at least
Speaker 1: two thousand dollars, right, I got somebody who doesn't for me?
Speaker 1: You know what? You know what it is. I'll be
Speaker 1: honest with you, Right, I always feel like I go
Speaker 1: to professionals to do something, so I hire people to
Speaker 1: do certain things, right, because I can't watch it, like
Speaker 1: I got too many things. So I hire people to
Speaker 1: look at my stocks. I hire people look at real estate.
Speaker 1: I hire people to do different things because I don't
Speaker 1: have the time. But that's more of an investing than
Speaker 1: at trading. This is this is new year, right, it's
Speaker 1: all making money. Yeah. All the whole thing about the
Speaker 1: stock market is, you know, do your long term investing
Speaker 1: and leave the trading for the professionals. But everything changed,
Speaker 1: as you know, trading became more mainstream, and technology changed everything,
Speaker 1: and people are trading now, and now what they have
Speaker 1: to do is do it with some education, do it
Speaker 1: with some guidance. And that's why wouldn't people hear things
Speaker 1: like five thousand dollars for a course and think of
Speaker 1: it as school you're actually learning because there's so many
Speaker 1: people like get people like that's the reason why we
Speaker 1: even started doing the real estate seminars, because people with
Speaker 1: charging people so much money but not teaching them stuff,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, and then saying okay, after you
Speaker 1: get to this point, you need another thousand dollars for
Speaker 1: this and another, And that's why we started teaching people
Speaker 1: how to do real estate the way that we do it,
Speaker 1: and we're not we charged ninety nine dollars and we're
Speaker 1: really only charging for the venue. And it's a great
Speaker 1: what you're doing with real estate investing. I know, you
Speaker 1: get a lot of people that charge people a lot
Speaker 1: of money and don't really get them. Give them anybody,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure people come to you and be like,
Speaker 1: I went to this person's course and I learned nothing.
Speaker 1: And that makes me happy so much when they say
Speaker 1: they come they go to another person's course and learn nothing,
Speaker 1: and then they come to your course and be like,
Speaker 1: I learned so much. Yes, that's why I'm excited that
Speaker 1: I have so many students that I have, because it's
Speaker 1: word of mouth. Terry is just such an example of
Speaker 1: what investing can do. She's living her best life and
Speaker 1: she's paying it forward. She doesn't have to do this.
Speaker 1: We had a nice conversation the other day. I was
Speaker 1: asking her why is she doing this? So I was
Speaker 1: looking at this forty million dollars house that she's renting
Speaker 1: in Puerto Rico, and she's building another one and I'm like,
Speaker 1: why are you still doing this? And she was like,
Speaker 1: this is my fun. Yeah, this is my ministry. I
Speaker 1: want to set got to preach your here. Oh I
Speaker 1: feel like this is my minister from my ministry who
Speaker 1: I can actually help. Leave us on a prayer. Want
Speaker 1: me pray for real absolutely on the trade on your
Speaker 1: heart well real quick, Dear Heavenly Father. I just pray
Speaker 1: for everybody who is listening under the sound of my voice.
Speaker 1: Lord God, Please, Lord, just continue to bless them with wisdom,
Speaker 1: bless them with understanding, Lord, and then just your your
Speaker 1: worst is that you will be everything that we need.
Speaker 1: You will supply everything that we need to Lord. I
Speaker 1: just ask at everybody lean on you, and then continue
Speaker 1: to bless them of financially, health, security, just everything. In
Speaker 1: Jesus name, we dearly pray, Amen, Amen, Amen, Terry and
Speaker 1: Gia my stay tistdam my partner in wealth. Wednesday, we're
Speaker 1: getting ready to start this trading and make this schmny.
Speaker 1: All right, it's the breakfast club. Good morning. It's gonna
Speaker 1: be a dunstan because right now you want some real duty.
Speaker 1: It's time for donkey of the day. So if we
Speaker 1: ever feel I need to be a donkey man with
Speaker 1: the heat becomes donkey of the day to practice club bitches.
Speaker 1: Steel bad, I really steel bad. I feel I feel bad.
Speaker 1: We were talking about the quick game behind the scenes,
Speaker 1: and we all finished it. We didn't realize our god,
Speaker 1: Nick didn't finish it. I didn't know he didn't finish it.
Speaker 1: He walked out earlier, saying that, Okay, you can talk
Speaker 1: about school game when I lead a room, but I
Speaker 1: definitely already spoiled it. That's right, anyway, donk Ye. The
Speaker 1: day goes to a forty three year old man named
Speaker 1: Kevin William t Okay. Kevin is from the Michigan area,
Speaker 1: and I swear in my old age, I just be
Speaker 1: feeling sorry for people. I'm serious. I used to come
Speaker 1: in here and just want to give people to credit
Speaker 1: they deserve for being stupid. But when I hear certain
Speaker 1: stories like this one in the day, I feel bad
Speaker 1: for Kevin because clearly, clearly something is wrong. All right.
Speaker 1: We have to recognize when mentally someone is not what
Speaker 1: they need to be. And I have empathy for those people.
Speaker 1: I just do because I think something that just out
Speaker 1: of their control. Some things are above him, and I
Speaker 1: feel I truly feel like this is one of those situations. Now,
Speaker 1: with that said, Kevin is a home invader. Okay, if
Speaker 1: you wake up in the middle of the night and
Speaker 1: a stranger is in your house, does it matter what
Speaker 1: his or her mental or emotional state is, they probably
Speaker 1: getting shot. Okay, well, at least in my house. All
Speaker 1: right now, I will send him in his family healing
Speaker 1: energy after the fact. But hey, that person made a
Speaker 1: choice to break it into my house. I don't have
Speaker 1: time to figure out if you know, if they're mentally unwell. Now,
Speaker 1: that has nothing to do with the story I'm about
Speaker 1: to tell you, Because Kevin broke into someone's house and
Speaker 1: he lived to tell about it. In fact, he didn't
Speaker 1: just live to tell about it. He lived to ask
Speaker 1: the police for help. Uncle Shla, Brother Lenard. What are
Speaker 1: you talking about? He lived to ask the police for
Speaker 1: help after breaking into someone's house. Well, let's go to
Speaker 1: news net for the report, please. A Michigan State Police
Speaker 1: trooper from the Catalog Post respondent to a breaking and
Speaker 1: entering complaint at a home on West Ridge Drive in Williamsburg.
Speaker 1: Homeowner reported she was watching television in the living room
Speaker 1: when she saw a man enter the room. She originally
Speaker 1: thought it was her husband, However, when she realized it wasn't,
Speaker 1: she screamed. Her husband came downstairs and told the man
Speaker 1: to leave. The trooper searched the area and located the suspect,
Speaker 1: forty three year old Kevin William Tegue from Williamsburg, in
Speaker 1: the backyard of his parents home nearby. When the trooper
Speaker 1: attempted to speak with Tigue, he fled into the woods.
Speaker 1: Later that evening, Tegue called nine one one to report
Speaker 1: he was lost. When troopers arrived, Tigue flagged them down,
Speaker 1: and he was taken into custody and lodged in the
Speaker 1: Grand Traverse County jail. Tigue was arraigned for one count
Speaker 1: breaking and entering without permission and one count resisting and
Speaker 1: obstructing police. He was given a one thousand dollars bond
Speaker 1: and his next scheduled court appearances on October twenty sixth.
Speaker 1: There's a phrase God watches over babies and fools babies.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's possible God is in the babysitter per se,
Speaker 1: but he will give the mother the scrimp to hold
Speaker 1: it down. But watches over, not watches. It's a difference,
Speaker 1: all right. The fool's part. I don't know about that,
Speaker 1: because Kevin, I don't know if that was God watching
Speaker 1: over him or just the luck of the draw. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's great Kevin didn't get shot in these people's house.
Speaker 1: But why would God be involved in this? Why would
Speaker 1: God have sent this fool, all right to do the
Speaker 1: breaking into someone's house and then have him run off
Speaker 1: into the woods and get lost. And then this man
Speaker 1: felt like he could just call the police because he
Speaker 1: was lost, never mind the fact he just committed a
Speaker 1: whole crime, never mind the fact he was in the
Speaker 1: woods hiding because of a crime he just committed. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna call the police and tell them I'm lost. You
Speaker 1: don't think they're gonna have questions on why you just
Speaker 1: randomly in the woods at this time of night. What
Speaker 1: you're gonna tell them? You're camping? Huh, you're hunting? Just
Speaker 1: taking a walk, y'all? Do realize narcissism is considered a
Speaker 1: mental disorder, correct, Because there's no way you commit a
Speaker 1: crime and didn't think you are able to call the
Speaker 1: police because you're lost if you're not a narcissist, all right,
Speaker 1: I honestly, I can't even continue this story until we
Speaker 1: play a game of guess what race it? Maybe this
Speaker 1: will give us a better understanding of this situation. Okay,
Speaker 1: Kevin william T, forty three years old, broke into someone's house,
Speaker 1: lived to tell about it, fled into the woods, then
Speaker 1: had the audacity, the unmitigated gall to call nine one
Speaker 1: one to report that he was lost. Angela, yee, guess
Speaker 1: what races? Well, I'm gonna have to say he is Caucasian.
Speaker 1: What makes you say Caucasian? Angela, Well, you know we
Speaker 1: don't call nine one one like that. And then he
Speaker 1: probably said I didn't know you couldn't do that. In
Speaker 1: the words of Dave Chappelle, all right, Kevin william T,
Speaker 1: forty three years old, broke into someone's house and fled
Speaker 1: into the woods, then called nine one one to report
Speaker 1: that he was lost. DJ nv Rashawn, Yes, what right,
Speaker 1: I'm destroyed on this one. Why are you destroyed? All right?
Speaker 1: Because it's I'm in the middle, right, I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: you why. Right at first Dominican, No, I'm not Dominican
Speaker 1: and black, but I was thinking black at first, because
Speaker 1: I can see a black person getting stuck in the
Speaker 1: woods and then hearing animals and being like nah adadam
Speaker 1: cool and I would want to get out. Okay, but
Speaker 1: if we did something illegal, we just we just tried
Speaker 1: set in the woods, sing out with the bear, stugging
Speaker 1: out with them bears because we ain't calling no poet
Speaker 1: these bears and being jail. Yes, I gotta go with Caucasian. Okay,
Speaker 1: Well I want angel and DJ and VI didn't know
Speaker 1: that you bofar right, Kevin william T gets our Caucasian.
Speaker 1: He had to call gasity, the unmitigated white privileged gall
Speaker 1: to break into someone's house, running to the woods, getting
Speaker 1: lost and then call the police to help. And this
Speaker 1: bond is only a thousand dollars for breaking in and
Speaker 1: entering without permission and resisting in obscructing police. And he
Speaker 1: resisted in obscructed police without getting shot. Well, if you
Speaker 1: just said that, I definitely I know I didn't want
Speaker 1: to give that one away. Please give Kevin william Tu
Speaker 1: the biggest he haw. A matter of fact, mccathy Griffin,
Speaker 1: get some of that. Please give this giant jar of
Speaker 1: male the biggest he had handle heaw he haw. That
Speaker 1: is way too much, Dan man as there you go.
Speaker 1: The breakfast Club Morning. Everybody's DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne
Speaker 1: the guy, we are the Breakfast Club. We got a
Speaker 1: special guest in the building. I don't know if we

Speaker 1: those mics that just attached on or something like that.
Speaker 1: Why Janet Jackson headset J Yeah, but I don't want
Speaker 1: both hands free. I like the microphone. It's a prop
Speaker 1: and about it makes it's a club. You can knock
Speaker 1: somebody but a head with it. It could be a
Speaker 1: you can make it whatever, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So I like having the mic because that's the beauty
Speaker 1: of imagery. Like you have a mic, you have a light,
Speaker 1: you have a stool. Give me some drunk people, I
Speaker 1: can make him laugh. Anywhere you think stand up as
Speaker 1: a lost art, No, I think it's the found art.
Speaker 1: I think it's the only place you're gonna be safe
Speaker 1: to say what you feel. Everybody don't need a stage.
Speaker 1: You don't need a stage where they CANCELA good. I
Speaker 1: don't think you get on stage no more either. I
Speaker 1: think I think you just got you can't you just
Speaker 1: can't on stage. Yeah, you get on stage because that's
Speaker 1: what they come to see you. If people can't you
Speaker 1: for a joke, those people that can't you ain't give
Speaker 1: about you in the first place. People that love you,
Speaker 1: they come for the craziest that you say. They want
Speaker 1: you to say that. Anybody else is scared to say. So.
Speaker 1: You know, I think it's a loss, but a found
Speaker 1: art from I love. I love stand up as much
Speaker 1: as I'm doing this drama stuff, and I do my
Speaker 1: movies and my TV show stand up. You know that
Speaker 1: that's my patch and that's my freedom. Every weekend, I
Speaker 1: just get to express and talk and find it, you know.
Speaker 1: And I've been doing this so long now. I just
Speaker 1: got a special dropping yeah on nineteenth UM on HBO,
Speaker 1: Max called you know what it is? And then I
Speaker 1: already got a brand new two three hours on right now, Well,
Speaker 1: let's talk about it because we did get an advanced screener,
Speaker 1: so you know I had a chance to watch it.
Speaker 1: You did address your cheating scandal. Oh yeah, that happened. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that happened. You would right into making it hot water
Speaker 1: in the cheat, Yes, I did. Yeah, But I guess
Speaker 1: that's something that you kind of have to do, right,
Speaker 1: like you don't have to a lot of people, not
Speaker 1: too though, because people think about it. And then it
Speaker 1: also is like you said, you can make anything funny,
Speaker 1: Well it's not. Well, that's part of my healing process.
Speaker 1: So you know, as much as it may before I
Speaker 1: could make anything funny to me, that's right. But honestly, um,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm glad that God gave me a microphone
Speaker 1: because I get to talk about my truth. And as
Speaker 1: long as you're talking about your truth, you can't hurt
Speaker 1: or offend others. You know. The person that was in
Speaker 1: it with you, you know, we laugh about it. And
Speaker 1: just like my my best friend, my rider die, I
Speaker 1: love that woman to death. Now we don't have sex,
Speaker 1: but still she got the card, she got the house,
Speaker 1: her house better than mine. I'd be jealous. And we
Speaker 1: never went to court to talk about those kinds of things.
Speaker 1: That's my family. I love it. I love it for life.
Speaker 1: But yeah, one thing that people have to think about
Speaker 1: too when something like that happens. What about the kids?
Speaker 1: What do the kids have to say to you when
Speaker 1: you come home because they see everything online? You know,
Speaker 1: because the kids feel for mommy, you know, because we
Speaker 1: make stupid excuses. First thing I said, and I knew
Speaker 1: I was on the boother woman, but you cant see
Speaker 1: sick I would have. I was like, I said, this
Speaker 1: was true. I said, I know this pictures with one girl,
Speaker 1: but there was like seven others. I should have seen
Speaker 1: it that was happening down below. But it was funny
Speaker 1: to me and I was able to make her laugh
Speaker 1: at the time. But I felt like, man, it's like,
Speaker 1: you know, there's no um, there's no no amount of
Speaker 1: sorries you can say except for you are sorry. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm a sorry as my bad. And that's something that
Speaker 1: you're gonna regret for the rest of your life. You
Speaker 1: think your success took a shot at you because you're
Speaker 1: so famous that they're taking pictures that you want to
Speaker 1: boat na. Actually that was the first time I felt successful.
Speaker 1: I'm like, it wasn't a picture either because and it
Speaker 1: wasn't like a cool picture with I had floaties. I
Speaker 1: want to swim that well, I had those little you
Speaker 1: never say float had one of them little boys. And
Speaker 1: that's what happens when you're famous, when you fly PA,
Speaker 1: wasn't that famous? Just now getting famous famous you don't
Speaker 1: have to sitcom on network TV, you know, like, come on, bro,
Speaker 1: all this Netflix stuff come on. But still all that
Speaker 1: was like building up to you know, this new this
Speaker 1: is this is what my best years are ahead of me.
Speaker 1: I always say, first thirty was learning and now these
Speaker 1: next thirty is executing. You know, I still got a
Speaker 1: young face you have Google alerts for yourself. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: got Google alerts. I say dumb all the time. So
Speaker 1: if they gonna cancel me, I want to know when
Speaker 1: they're gonna cancel me. Can you don't know what's going on.
Speaker 1: I don't want to know what's going on? Know what
Speaker 1: you mean? I'm canceling. Ain't your brothday? That's how you
Speaker 1: know something happened when you wake up in the morn.
Speaker 1: I need to know. I didn't know. I call my
Speaker 1: brothers Keenan show. Can y'all do a press conference for me?
Speaker 1: Somebody ken't even know what that is? No, Keenan David
Speaker 1: don't even deal with Twitter. They don't deal with Kenan.
Speaker 1: Tell you they tried cancel Lin. Can't cancel me? Now
Speaker 1: cancel myself, don't. I don't need to be on that networks. Keenan. Funny,
Speaker 1: like my brothers don't subscribe. That's why they don't tweet,
Speaker 1: they don't Instagram, they don't do all that because they're
Speaker 1: just like why I put yourself out there to be
Speaker 1: a target. I don't get paid the post pictures. I
Speaker 1: get paid the movies. And that's true, Like you know,
Speaker 1: so if I'm gonna getting canceled. Let it be doing,
Speaker 1: you know, on the stage, because I did. I'm getting
Speaker 1: paid to do the show. That's my last check. Make
Speaker 1: it a good one, all right. We got more with
Speaker 1: Marlon Wayne's when we come back, don't Move. It's the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club, Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee.
Speaker 1: Charlomagne the guy we are to Breakfast Club were still
Speaker 1: kicking with Marlon Wayne's did you take anything out of
Speaker 1: this special? Because there were some edgy things on there
Speaker 1: where even I was like, oh, this is one joke
Speaker 1: that I really loved that took out. I didn't want to,
Speaker 1: but as Maxell's like, listen, they were like, just that one. Okay,
Speaker 1: you want to stand up to do it? Are you?
Speaker 1: You can't get cancer if you're standing up now, you guys,
Speaker 1: if you're sitting down not the views of the Breakfast
Speaker 1: Clube Juice inspired this joke, and eds Water and Charlemagne's book.
Speaker 1: Actually I got out of Charlemagne's third book, all right.
Speaker 1: So it was it was because I talked about my
Speaker 1: my daughter. I want to talk about her being gay now.
Speaker 1: Acceptance right and our love us accept and you know,
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the message is always
Speaker 1: about love and acceptance. That's my child. And I try
Speaker 1: to speak to fathers out there who are in especially
Speaker 1: old school point of views, like, yo, I'm not accepting
Speaker 1: my kids in that life and it's like, at the
Speaker 1: end of the day's still your kid. And I talked
Speaker 1: about how I went to per phone on to high
Speaker 1: school and to this day, I still have gay friends
Speaker 1: and I still, you know, hang out with my gay
Speaker 1: friends and when you know, and that's why I consulted it.
Speaker 1: When when it was time for me to find figure
Speaker 1: out like what to do with my daughter, I sat
Speaker 1: my gay friend down and I asked him, you know,
Speaker 1: what do you do? And he goes, well, and he'd
Speaker 1: made this noise, but his method was like and I
Speaker 1: was like, hey, you just pull off and imagine they
Speaker 1: answered my question because he made that noise that I
Speaker 1: can't make it. And then the audience laughs and I said,
Speaker 1: that's not the worst thing I said to him. I said, listen,
Speaker 1: we gave people a great sense of humans. I actually
Speaker 1: said something darker to him, but I'm not going to
Speaker 1: tell people what it was because I felt like to
Speaker 1: get upset. And then the audience egged me on it's
Speaker 1: like tell looks, tell luck, tell look all right, And
Speaker 1: I said all right, and I y'all, nothing's gonna judge me. No,
Speaker 1: you this. You're a comedian, all right. So then I said,
Speaker 1: I said, oh, think no. Because I said, I said, hey,
Speaker 1: I forgot, it's so funny. They're like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: they're looking at here like, no, don't do it. They are,
Speaker 1: and I said, he goes. My gay friend was like,
Speaker 1: I was born this way. And then I said, I said,
Speaker 1: oh really, I said, but then I said what who who?
Speaker 1: So what? And then it's a little like the baby
Speaker 1: that kind of joke, and the audience like laughed. They
Speaker 1: lost it and I got a big huge round of
Speaker 1: applause just because I've said that, because they didn't think
Speaker 1: I was gonna go there, and I'm like and they
Speaker 1: was like, yo, that's dope, and they laughed. It was
Speaker 1: one of my favorite jokes. But I was just like,
Speaker 1: I don't know how mothers over the age of white
Speaker 1: mothers over forty seven would enjoy that, and for my
Speaker 1: white female audience over forty seven, I chose to take
Speaker 1: that joke out. I can see the think pieces, Marlon Wayne,
Speaker 1: They're not funny there's nothing funny about that, Marlin. I
Speaker 1: didn't just do the little baby. I did the whole
Speaker 1: la laba, and it just gets more and more uncomfortable
Speaker 1: and funnier, and it's funny. I can see the pieces
Speaker 1: right now. But here's the thing. Ready, there's funny and everything. Thing.
Speaker 1: I don't care what topic it is. It's funny and everything.
Speaker 1: Now it may take you time to find it, but
Speaker 1: it's funny and everything. You can't tell somebody how to
Speaker 1: feel about what they went through. That's their therapy is going, Oh,
Speaker 1: you know, it's funny about this, And that's the beauty
Speaker 1: of comedy is no matter what we decide to talk about,
Speaker 1: if as long as you're talking about your truth, as
Speaker 1: long as you're talking about a perspective that um isn't
Speaker 1: you're trying to bash, but you're trying to enlighten. I
Speaker 1: think you can talk about anything. Every time. Every time
Speaker 1: I tell the story about how I got molested at
Speaker 1: eight by my cousin's ex wife, and I always say,
Speaker 1: you know, I made her stop because she had a
Speaker 1: Jerry Crow and I didn't like her Jerry craw. You
Speaker 1: see what I'm saying. I've been telling every time after
Speaker 1: same reaction every single time. She's like, I've read it
Speaker 1: too many times already, but it's funny every time. How
Speaker 1: many times? But it's a true stories. I wouldn't do.
Speaker 1: I would be the same winning trying to go down
Speaker 1: to the way Jay Carl smells. It's like, that's how
Speaker 1: I felt when I was eight. I was like, I
Speaker 1: don't like the kids on my hands. It's everywhere. Your
Speaker 1: mom can tell who it was. It was your aunt
Speaker 1: now because look at your l all that glitzerings on
Speaker 1: lat that's what that is. I know it was Loreta.
Speaker 1: Now you know what's gonna cancel you after this? People
Speaker 1: with auty belly buttons. I canceled them years ago. You
Speaker 1: gotta see this fest I grew up, wheld you grow
Speaker 1: up South Carolina. Monk's going to South Carolina? Would you say, okay?
Speaker 1: So you know I'm talking about it's the auty belly
Speaker 1: button kids. They just badass and kids. It was always
Speaker 1: ben Do with the Audi belly button. That was the
Speaker 1: bully in the hood. Their shirt on anything they never had,
Speaker 1: they always had and they were buff at four years old.
Speaker 1: And so I talk about Audi belly button people and
Speaker 1: how they're terrible human human being. So Audi belly button people, please,
Speaker 1: um watch this. It's no offense to you. It's more
Speaker 1: offense to your belly button and how you raise. But
Speaker 1: the funny part is somebody can write and think peace
Speaker 1: about that too. Marlon Wayne thinks people belly buttons on
Speaker 1: the devil, Like, what can you fix that? If you
Speaker 1: have an Audi, like get serious? Black people try they
Speaker 1: put a quarter you ever seen somebody was quarter button
Speaker 1: or Nickel Brothers trying to fix it. Just sleep the
Speaker 1: sleeping on his stomach. Maybe I don't know where it
Speaker 1: comes from, but it always scared me. And so in
Speaker 1: my special, I just I talk about my fears and
Speaker 1: that's one of them. Listen what I like about the specials.
Speaker 1: It starts weird, just off the cuff, so that's weird,
Speaker 1: and then it just keeps going and then it gets
Speaker 1: like okay. Then you after the first eight minutes you
Speaker 1: enter the special and you realize that, oh, I'm on
Speaker 1: a journey, and you know, I get to talk about
Speaker 1: my life, my truth, you know, my cups and and
Speaker 1: and and poke fun at it. It was crazy. I'm
Speaker 1: just just I'm just realizing. I don't think you've been
Speaker 1: here in two years August, maybe you twenty nineteen. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna make views like I'm making invY one. This tastes
Speaker 1: just like water. I got christ It's a little old baby,
Speaker 1: all right. We got more with Marlon Wayne when we
Speaker 1: come back, don't move. It's the Breakfast Club, The Morning
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club, do power one, O five one, the
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Your morning's will never be the same morning.
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We
Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking with Marlon Wayne's
Speaker 1: yet you see now Robin has come out as as bisexual,
Speaker 1: and I see a lot of people weighing in on
Speaker 1: when did that happened? Just came? That just happened as
Speaker 1: soon as they put my character. Why didn't put this
Speaker 1: on the on the brother white? Robin is now black? Um,
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. I feel like, you know, with
Speaker 1: the way the world is at this point, everybody needs
Speaker 1: some representation. Everybody should have some type of hero and
Speaker 1: who cares like I mean, I think it's dope that
Speaker 1: you know, it progresses and that he goes the way
Speaker 1: everyonets if that's what he wants to be that's what
Speaker 1: I look. My daughter needs a superhero. So hey, congrat
Speaker 1: gay Robbie. My daughter would love that. She'd be like yes, Robin, Yes.
Speaker 1: So for everybody like I was beautiful. Yet another reason
Speaker 1: why Living Color should get more credit because everybody was
Speaker 1: represented on in Living Color, everybody. It was a diverse cast,
Speaker 1: and every character y'all portrayed was I mean, handicap people,
Speaker 1: gay people like. They say that in Living Color couldn't exist.
Speaker 1: To there, I disagree. I don't think the world would
Speaker 1: be as sensitive if in Living Color did exist. If
Speaker 1: we did, people go, you can't do a White Chicks too?
Speaker 1: Sure we could. I think White Chicks too would actually
Speaker 1: be better given this climate than it was. It would
Speaker 1: be more successful than it was because people are looking
Speaker 1: for people to just can say it. Everybody's so scared
Speaker 1: to just say I'm gonna say it, and it's oh,
Speaker 1: I've always said it, but I always say with kids
Speaker 1: gloves because our intention is never to dismantle or hurt people.
Speaker 1: Our intention is to bring people together with a laugh.
Speaker 1: That's why I love about my shows. When I do
Speaker 1: stand up, I have a point of view over here,
Speaker 1: and somebody else has a point of view over there.
Speaker 1: But if I get them all to laugh, then we're
Speaker 1: agreeing about something. I would argue that if we laugh
Speaker 1: with each other and at each other, we all normalize
Speaker 1: each other, regardless of what it is. Growing up, that's
Speaker 1: all we did with snap on each other. Black people,
Speaker 1: white people, Portovican people, Dominicans and Porto Ricans who go
Speaker 1: at it, And that's what we did. Who's to say
Speaker 1: you can't say this. Sometimes you make your best friends
Speaker 1: by talking about people. So we got cool talking about
Speaker 1: each other. I was like, it was motivation. When Marlin
Speaker 1: told me I piqued that life, I said, I really
Speaker 1: got to be more myself. He told me, I piqued
Speaker 1: that life. Was like, let's say that. I was trying
Speaker 1: to get nuclear. Yeah, behind you, I'm writing this, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna do my podcast that pick that like, and I'm
Speaker 1: living at home with my mom right now because I
Speaker 1: got fire from Wendy. What wow, that's very effective that
Speaker 1: like wow, Like I might as well go for it.
Speaker 1: He was talking about like for no reason, this is
Speaker 1: just like why do you like this answer? And then
Speaker 1: trauma really yeah, hell yeah hurt person. Once. I was
Speaker 1: a little mad at you because you've made my you
Speaker 1: and Wendy and my sister, and my sister Kim is
Speaker 1: the sweetest, sweetest, most intelligent, the diagram of what a
Speaker 1: great black woman should be. And they went at my sister.
Speaker 1: I was like, nah, I went about them with me.
Speaker 1: I thought I went at Sean. No, you went at Kim,
Speaker 1: and that's why Sean got mad. You went at afterwards,
Speaker 1: and Sean's like, that's my sister. Sean, we new York.
Speaker 1: That was that felt like, all right, Kim, I'm up.
Speaker 1: You get windy that yeah. But so that when we
Speaker 1: had to twitter being that's what I was like, but
Speaker 1: sing Kim O love, I sincerely apologize. I was a
Speaker 1: different person. Thank you man. I absolutely absolutely a woman
Speaker 1: deserve that. I know. We're also here to talk about respect.
Speaker 1: We had yes because I read Franklin biopick first and foremost.
Speaker 1: Jennifer Hudson is amazing in this movie. When you see
Speaker 1: when you see this woman's word, I couldn't believe that
Speaker 1: I was watching this woman do this like and it
Speaker 1: wasn't like she was trying. She had no fear she
Speaker 1: would come to word. She's singing to read the Franklin takeout,
Speaker 1: the takeout to take live Wow never asked for hot
Speaker 1: well and Lemon I was like, honey, God is in
Speaker 1: her abdomen, like she was so damn good and she's
Speaker 1: like I felt like. When I was going to work,
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm I'm going to watch Jennifer Hudson
Speaker 1: win three oscars and abusive husband and which was different
Speaker 1: for me because I've never seen my dad strike my mom.
Speaker 1: I didn't grow up in a household like that. Layne's
Speaker 1: household was not like that. That's why me and my
Speaker 1: brothers were respectful men. We'll walk away before it get crazy.
Speaker 1: If you would light my house on fire, I'm still
Speaker 1: not gonna hit you. And none you can do to
Speaker 1: make me come out of my character. So I really
Speaker 1: had to dig deep to find that. And I thought
Speaker 1: what would make a man hit a woman? And I
Speaker 1: thought a damaged man would hit a woman because he's
Speaker 1: trying to damage her, because damage people damage people, and
Speaker 1: a damaged man is really a hurt little boy. And
Speaker 1: so the insecurity and the jealousy him trying to control
Speaker 1: her spark the abuse. But I wanted it to come
Speaker 1: from a place of love, because when a man meets
Speaker 1: a woman, he loves her. He wants to rescue her.
Speaker 1: He's coming as the Night in shining armor, and that
Speaker 1: was his intention, but he failed up because he just
Speaker 1: was nothing but a hurt little boy. And that to me,
Speaker 1: I wanted to do that because I wanted to represent
Speaker 1: for all the women that are in abusive relationships and
Speaker 1: people go, why don't you just leave him? Girl? It
Speaker 1: ain't that easy when you fall in love. And that's
Speaker 1: the beauty of his movies. You see us fall in
Speaker 1: love and then you invest in the love, and so
Speaker 1: it's not that easy to leave somebody because you're trying
Speaker 1: to rescue people from each other's damage. How do you
Speaker 1: prepare for the role though, Like, because you keep talking
Speaker 1: about like, I guess the hurt little boys you have
Speaker 1: to tap into, like the trauma you some trauma you
Speaker 1: experience as a child. I mean I've seen, I mean,
Speaker 1: you grew up in the placs you see, you see,
Speaker 1: you see people get to dance with all the time.
Speaker 1: So I thought about past relationships that I knew girlfriends
Speaker 1: of mine that have been in abusive relationships or you know,
Speaker 1: family member who have been in abusive relationships. So I
Speaker 1: kind of tapped into that and then I read iceberg
Speaker 1: slim book Pimp and Pimp is the thing that made
Speaker 1: me realize that all monsters aren't monsters, they're really damaged
Speaker 1: little boys. And Iceberg Slim in his book Pimp, he
Speaker 1: was became a pimp because he was mad at his mother,
Speaker 1: because his mother left his stepfather, who was the only
Speaker 1: man in his life that he loved, and she around
Speaker 1: with another dude. And she left that man who was
Speaker 1: really good to him for another dude. And he was like, bitch,
Speaker 1: I hate you. I'm slapping bitches for knife, and that's
Speaker 1: what he did. I think they're saying, you gotta go,
Speaker 1: but but I'm canceled, being that this is my last
Speaker 1: I do want to ask you about this because I
Speaker 1: thought this was good. Speaking of motivation, say Chris rock Heck,
Speaker 1: could you during a performance that for years? I don't what.
Speaker 1: I was like, Chris, because I didn't know it was him,
Speaker 1: you know, was eighteen seventeen. I'm doing stand up. I
Speaker 1: hear and I'm like, you know, you're trying to find it,
Speaker 1: and You're like, what else? How about some fucking jokes?
Speaker 1: I was like, so what else is funny? I don't know?
Speaker 1: How about you tell that was funny. What and he
Speaker 1: heckled me hard. But I understand in the comedy game,
Speaker 1: it's it's a fraternity, you know, and my brother's probably Chris.
Speaker 1: And Chris was heckling me. That's part of the fraternity.
Speaker 1: Thank god that didn't happen and go viral like it
Speaker 1: would have today, because I would have loved it. I mean,
Speaker 1: this guy, well, here's that's the beauty is now. I'm
Speaker 1: the baby of the bunch, right, so all these Chris
Speaker 1: gonna get old, probably faster than me. And and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna catch that the old on stage and when the
Speaker 1: seen last. What else is funny? I don't know, y'all
Speaker 1: play that. I'm set because I saw him performing at
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle's summer camp and he was a little rusty
Speaker 1: because he hadn't performed in a while, so he had
Speaker 1: notes and everything. You can't get Chris. Chris, Chris a
Speaker 1: go Chris is a gene. He made it funny that
Speaker 1: he was rusty. But see here's Chris, right, I performed
Speaker 1: as me, Dave, Chris, John Stewart, Michael Shay, Donnell Rawlings,
Speaker 1: He's down at the stand and Chris was gonna go

Speaker 1: will never be the same morning Everybody's dj Envy. Angela yee,
Speaker 1: Charlemagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. We got
Speaker 1: a special guest with us this morning, Doctor Panel Joseph
Speaker 1: and I just found out it from queens and y'all. Yes, absolutely.
Speaker 1: I read an amazing book called The Sword and the Shield,
Speaker 1: written by doctor Neil Joseph one of the best books
Speaker 1: I've ever read. I got around to it about a
Speaker 1: year later. I know it came out last year in March,
Speaker 1: but I got to it about a year late. But
Speaker 1: it really explores the revolutionary lies of doctor Martin Luther
Speaker 1: King Junior and brother Malcolm X in a very humanizing way,
Speaker 1: like like, what made you want to explore him the
Speaker 1: way that you did? Well, I've always you know, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna say what Muhammad Ali said about Malcolm X. He said,
Speaker 1: I fell in love with Malcolm X when he was
Speaker 1: debating people and talking to people about black history. So
Speaker 1: I fell in love with Malcolm X by the time
Speaker 1: I was eight, nine, ten years old. The Eyes on
Speaker 1: the Prize documentary series came out, and this is before
Speaker 1: Denzel's brilliant movie came out in nineteen ninety two. I
Speaker 1: was nineteen when the movie came out. So I've always
Speaker 1: loved Malcolm X. I think my love for Doctor King
Speaker 1: has come as I've gotten older, as I've become a father,
Speaker 1: as I've become just a deeper adult, because you see
Speaker 1: one how doctor King was radicalized in part by Malcolm X.
Speaker 1: But but I've also come to see that. Certainly we
Speaker 1: need self defense what Malcolm X talked about, but we
Speaker 1: also need the beloved community where doctor King talked about.
Speaker 1: So my whole thing was seeing how they they went
Speaker 1: from being rivals and adversaries to being each other's alter egos.
Speaker 1: What have you learn a lot of this because you
Speaker 1: know in school, especially growing up, they touched on a
Speaker 1: lot of it. You know, I mean it wasn't so
Speaker 1: deep like it was that I have a dream speech.
Speaker 1: It was a little bit of Malcolm X. So what
Speaker 1: made you want to learn more about these characters Malcolm
Speaker 1: X and Martin Luther King? And you know, it was
Speaker 1: growing up in New York City and the you know,
Speaker 1: my mother was part of a hospital workers SCIU eleven
Speaker 1: ninety nine, and so we grew up in a city
Speaker 1: where we talked about social protest. I was a freshman
Speaker 1: in high school when Michael Griffith was murdered in December
Speaker 1: of eighty six and Howard Beach, a white mob chased
Speaker 1: them out into the highway and the brother was just
Speaker 1: destroyed by by a fast moving car and was trying
Speaker 1: to figure all this stuff out in New York City.
Speaker 1: So this before David Dinkins This is when Eleanor Bumpers,
Speaker 1: who was a black grandmother, was murdered by the police
Speaker 1: at in her own home. And so all of that
Speaker 1: got me interested. But then, certainly Eyes on the Prize
Speaker 1: premiered in New York in nineteen eighty seven eighty eight
Speaker 1: on PBS Channel thirteen over here, and we grew up
Speaker 1: in New York City where Channel five before Fox News.
Speaker 1: We used to watch the drive in movies and you
Speaker 1: think about Wu Tang, they talk about Shaolin. We three
Speaker 1: pm on Saturdays. This is before cable, This is before everything.
Speaker 1: We used to watch, you know, kung fu movies, right,
Speaker 1: So was this idea of you were watching kung fu movies?
Speaker 1: Hip Hop Run DMC lived on Hollis right up the hill,
Speaker 1: so we used to see Run DMC. We used to
Speaker 1: be able to go to shows they used to play
Speaker 1: at times right in PS thirty four Park, But there
Speaker 1: was all this racial segregation. Ed Koch was the mayor
Speaker 1: of New York. Ronald Reagan was the president. All that
Speaker 1: got me interested in Malcolm X. First time I read
Speaker 1: about Malcolm my mother had the autobiography of Alcolm X
Speaker 1: in the house and I read that and that just
Speaker 1: got me going, man, how old are you? Because you're
Speaker 1: talking like you fifty something? You look like you and
Speaker 1: you're okay, okay, I'm forty eight. Okay, Wow, man, would
Speaker 1: you vegan a lot of water? A lot of water,
Speaker 1: a lot of it? Been practicing yoga for twenty three years? Okay? Okay?
Speaker 1: And uh yeah, all that good stuff. Now, what does
Speaker 1: the metaphor in the book's title, the Sword and the
Speaker 1: Shield referred to? And I'm glad you asked that. So
Speaker 1: we usually think about Malcolm X is the political sword
Speaker 1: of the Black freedom struggle. And I even write in
Speaker 1: this book Malcolm served as Black America's prosecuting attorney, so
Speaker 1: he was prosecuting the United States for crimes against black
Speaker 1: humanity that dated back to racial slavery. Doctor King is
Speaker 1: usually think thought of as the shield. He's America's apostle
Speaker 1: of non violence, where Malcolm is Harlem's hero of self defense.
Speaker 1: We think about the ballot or the bullet speech. We
Speaker 1: think about Malcolm with a rifle by by a window,
Speaker 1: and that's an iconic picture. What I argue in The
Speaker 1: Sword in the Shield is that both Malcolm and Martin
Speaker 1: are both Malcolm X is not only the political sword
Speaker 1: of the black community. He becomes our prime minister who
Speaker 1: goes to Africa from the Middle East. He becomes l
Speaker 1: Hodge Malik Shabaz, and he wants to build the beloved
Speaker 1: community as well, but one that's rooted in truth and
Speaker 1: the truth of not just racial slavery, but our West
Speaker 1: African and our African heritage. So Malcolm is a Pan
Speaker 1: African all day, every day. But he's also a Muslim.
Speaker 1: He's also a radical internationalist. King is not just somebody
Speaker 1: who's a man of peace. He's a man of peace.
Speaker 1: He's a man of God. Both of them are men
Speaker 1: of God. But King is also this non violent revolutionary
Speaker 1: King becomes so revolutionary after Malcolm X's death, he's no
Speaker 1: longer on speaking terms with the President of the United
Speaker 1: States because he comes out against the Vietnam War, and
Speaker 1: he starts to say things like all white Americans have
Speaker 1: unconscious racism. He says the halls of the US Congress
Speaker 1: of running wild with racism. In April fourth, nineteen sixty seven,
Speaker 1: at the Riverside Church in New York, he says that
Speaker 1: the greatest purveyor of violence in the United States in
Speaker 1: the world is the United States of America. So that's
Speaker 1: the revolutionary King who goes to places like Marks, Mississippi
Speaker 1: and tells poor black people that during reconstruction they were
Speaker 1: promised forty acres in the mule. They didn't get their
Speaker 1: forty acres in the mule, but he's gonna lead a
Speaker 1: poor people's caravan to go to Washington, DC until they
Speaker 1: get the forty acres in the mule. That's doctor Martin
Speaker 1: Luther King Junior. So he's both a sword and the shield.
Speaker 1: But Malcolm is as well. And what I argue in
Speaker 1: the book is that the person who most influences doctor
Speaker 1: King's radicalism is Malcolm X. You know they, you know, Charlemagno.
Speaker 1: We talks about how Malcolm and Malcolm X and doctor Kings,
Speaker 1: doctor King spoke. Do you think they were assassinated because
Speaker 1: they were possibly going to join forces that come out
Speaker 1: together and that would just be too much power. Well,
Speaker 1: I think they definitely are assassinated because they represent a
Speaker 1: threat to the American political system. I think that they
Speaker 1: would have gotten together. They spoke together once on March
Speaker 1: twenty six, nineteen sixty four, at the US Senate. But
Speaker 1: one little known aspect did I get into in the
Speaker 1: book is that Malcolm saw King in Harlem December seventeenth,
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty four. He was sitting next to Andy Young
Speaker 1: Andrew Young, a former mayor of Atlanta, a former UN ambassador,
Speaker 1: and he heard doctor King give a whole speech after
Speaker 1: King won the Nobel Peace Prize, and not just that.
Speaker 1: He speaks about that speech in Harlem a few days
Speaker 1: later and says that it was a terrific speech. He's impressed,
Speaker 1: and he goes to Alabama to visit with doctor King,
Speaker 1: and doctor King's in prison, and he visits instead with
Speaker 1: Coretta Scott King, doctor King's wife and really political partner.
Speaker 1: We think of Coreta Scott King is just his wife.
Speaker 1: She's a brilliant organizer, political partner, intellectual's his better half.
Speaker 1: Let's let's face it. And so when we think about Malcolm,
Speaker 1: Malcolm was ready to join forces with King, but on
Speaker 1: his own terms, he wasn't gonna do the same thing.
Speaker 1: He Malcolm always believed in black dignity, King believed in
Speaker 1: black citizenship. Over time, they both come to believe in
Speaker 1: black dignity and citizenship, and Malcolm X defined black dignity
Speaker 1: as the end of world white supremacy. All right, we
Speaker 1: got more with Doctor Panel Joseph when we come back,
Speaker 1: don't move as to Breakfast Club morning, everybody is dj
Speaker 1: Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast
Speaker 1: Club was still kicking it with Doctor Panel, Joseph Charlomagne.
Speaker 1: Let's let's dig in on that a little bit more,
Speaker 1: because I love the concept of radical black dignity as weird,
Speaker 1: because I've read the autobiography of Malcolm X a few
Speaker 1: times Love Message to the Black Man, Biolijah Muhammad, swear
Speaker 1: by those books. But I don't remember that concept, you know,
Speaker 1: explored as much as when I read The Sword and
Speaker 1: the Shield, and I even incorporated a lot of the
Speaker 1: concept of radical black dignity and commissment speech I gave
Speaker 1: for South Carolina State, you know, about a month ago.
Speaker 1: But can you dig a little deeper on what that is?
Speaker 1: What is radical black dignity? Radical Black dignity from Malcolm
Speaker 1: X is radical black political self determination. So what that
Speaker 1: means is that Malcolm absolutely had this external critique. He
Speaker 1: critiqued white supremacy, critique institutions that were brutalizing black people,
Speaker 1: the police, the whole deal. But he also expected a
Speaker 1: lot of ourselves. So Malcolm defines radical black dignity as
Speaker 1: Black people coming to understand and love themselves through the
Speaker 1: pain and trauma of racial slavery and segregation and brutalization.
Speaker 1: That we have to understand that, but we have to
Speaker 1: not be as hard on ourselves as we usually are.
Speaker 1: Because Malcolm criticized us for loving white people and loving
Speaker 1: white supremacy too much. But what that meant was that
Speaker 1: we weren't able to face how we had been subjugated,
Speaker 1: how we had been subjugated during racial slavery. The reason
Speaker 1: why Malcolm X goes to Africa three times because people
Speaker 1: don't talk about the nineteen fifty nine trip to Africa
Speaker 1: where he's in Egypt, he's in the Middle East, he
Speaker 1: meets up with President Vice President n y El Sadat,
Speaker 1: he meets up with Prince Faisal Saudi Arabia, the whole deal.
Speaker 1: Malcolm went there to the Middle East, into Africa even
Speaker 1: before he takes to Hajj, because he knew that black
Speaker 1: people out of history before the Middle Passage. So part
Speaker 1: of that dignity was we understood that yes, not only
Speaker 1: had we been kings and queens and obviously not all
Speaker 1: of us were just kings and queens in Africa. But
Speaker 1: we had a history before the US. We had a
Speaker 1: history before European I won't even call it conquest, but
Speaker 1: being captives here and really recreating Western civilization through our
Speaker 1: own protests. Another part of radical black dignity is black
Speaker 1: beauty and black love. Malcolm, following Marcus Mosiah Garvey, believed
Speaker 1: in the beauty of black people intrinsically black women, black men,
Speaker 1: black children, black babies, black neighborhoods. So when we think
Speaker 1: about this idea of self determination, and my final point
Speaker 1: is this is why Malcolm has a critique of racial integration,
Speaker 1: not because he doesn't want an equal society. But Malcolm
Speaker 1: was horrified by the fact that it took troops to
Speaker 1: bring black children to school in Little Rock Central High
Speaker 1: School in nineteen fifty seven, Whereas King writes a telegram
Speaker 1: to President Eisenhower applauding that in September of nineteen fifty seven,
Speaker 1: Malcolm is angry and mad about that. Why it's a
Speaker 1: sixth society where our children, little black girls and boys,
Speaker 1: have to be guarded by troops to go into a
Speaker 1: high school or an elementary school. And that's why Malcolm
Speaker 1: says American democracy is nothing but American hypocrisy. And very
Speaker 1: famously he says, you can't put a knife nine inches
Speaker 1: in a person's back, take it out three inches and
Speaker 1: call that progress. You haven't taken out the knife, and
Speaker 1: you haven't even acknowledged the wound. So black dignity is
Speaker 1: us understanding our own struggle, loving ourselves through the joy
Speaker 1: and the trauma of that struggles. Remember the reason why
Speaker 1: Malcolm X is the best order in American history. And
Speaker 1: I'll say doctor King's number two. The reason why Malcolm's
Speaker 1: the best. Malcolm has a great sense of humor. He
Speaker 1: actually forces us to confront this through different parables. And
Speaker 1: when he talks about house negroes versus field negroes, he's
Speaker 1: talking about black dignity, but he's also talking that we
Speaker 1: have class tensions in our own community. Sometimes you'll have
Speaker 1: historians and scholars to say, well, the house negro field
Speaker 1: negro is more complicated than that. Malcolm's given us allegoris
Speaker 1: that everyone can understand. That's why he says, make it plain.
Speaker 1: So the house negroes wore black folks who had more
Speaker 1: identification with white supremacy and white masters and that's why
Speaker 1: Malcolm says, when the white master got sick, the house
Speaker 1: negro said, we see right and field negroes. Malcolm defined
Speaker 1: them like he defined himself, black people who were catching
Speaker 1: hell every day and who were bold enough to resist
Speaker 1: against white supremacy. So black dignity is huge, huge, huge,
Speaker 1: And this is why when we think about the Malcolm
Speaker 1: and Martin, the dichotomy and the convergence, it's only because
Speaker 1: of Malcolm X. The Doctor King starts talking about black dignity.
Speaker 1: Doctor King starts saying black is beautiful, and it's so
Speaker 1: beautiful to be black. Doctor King, by nineteen sixty seven
Speaker 1: tells us that they even tell us little white lies
Speaker 1: are better than black lives. Black lives. That's Doctor King,
Speaker 1: only because Malcolm X had taught all of us about
Speaker 1: black dignity. Before Malcolm, we were all negroes who turned
Speaker 1: into black people because of Malcolm X. And in the
Speaker 1: book you lay out how they each become the others
Speaker 1: alter ego. Essentially, to me, that's what the book is
Speaker 1: ultimately about. Can you explain it absolutely? When we think
Speaker 1: about Malcolm and Martin, over time, doctor King becomes much
Speaker 1: more of a radical and a revolutionary, speaking truth to
Speaker 1: power in an unapologetic way in the tone of Malcolm X.
Speaker 1: My great example there is when doctor King is in Marks,
Speaker 1: Mississippi in nineteen sixty eight organizing the Poor People's Campaign.
Speaker 1: He tells the poor black folks in Marks, Mississippi that
Speaker 1: the way they are living is a crime. That's the
Speaker 1: exact language that Malcolm X used to use about this
Speaker 1: crime against black humanity that had occurred. For Malcolm, it's
Speaker 1: the ballot or the bullet speech. The ballot or the
Speaker 1: bullet speech is the first time Malcolm X acknowledges the
Speaker 1: need for radical black citizenship. He had always acknowledged a
Speaker 1: need for radical black dignity. But Malcolm hedges he doesn't
Speaker 1: believe in American democracy, never does he believes in what
Speaker 1: black people. He says, the reason why I think we
Speaker 1: should do the ballot or the bullet is that I
Speaker 1: want Black people to have a chance to utilize this
Speaker 1: political power and see where it gets them. Remember, Malcolm
Speaker 1: X had been in prison. Malcolm X's father had been
Speaker 1: killed early. He always felt it was a white supremacist attack.
Speaker 1: His mother had been institutionalized. Malcolm had seen what I
Speaker 1: call the lower frequencies of the United States of America.
Speaker 1: So he was always skeptical about democracy working the way
Speaker 1: in which white people pretended it worked, right, But what
Speaker 1: he did was he had faith in who black people.
Speaker 1: He was schooled by his mother, Louise Norton Little, who
Speaker 1: was from Granada, So Malcolm has Caribbean blood as well
Speaker 1: as the African African American blood. He was schooled by
Speaker 1: his father or a little he was schooled by the
Speaker 1: honorable Alija Muhammad, but he was also schooled by all
Speaker 1: these revolutionary leaders in the Middle East and Africa. Right,
Speaker 1: So when you think about Malcolm becomes closer to king
Speaker 1: through this acknowledgement that we need to end worldwide supremacy,
Speaker 1: not just through self defense, but we're gonna need that
Speaker 1: beloved community. But Malcolm Hedges, he says, one, I only
Speaker 1: believe in black people visa VI this democracy thing. But
Speaker 1: two he says that white people and his language is
Speaker 1: this sincere white people can be part of the movement.
Speaker 1: What did he define as sincere? He divined a sincere
Speaker 1: as what do boys call abolitionist democracy? White people who
Speaker 1: are gonna be willing to put themselves on the line
Speaker 1: right to transform the entire world. So du Boys always said,
Speaker 1: and W. B. Du Boys is the intellectual who is
Speaker 1: the founder of the NAACP, one of the most important
Speaker 1: intellectuals ever. But what he wrote in a book nineteen
Speaker 1: thirty five called Black Reconstruction was he wrote the true
Speaker 1: history of reconstruction. He pushed back against the Lost Cause
Speaker 1: history that had said we were apes and monsters and
Speaker 1: we were raping white women. He showed how black people
Speaker 1: tried to reimagine American democracy. And the only reason the
Speaker 1: country exists in the form and exists now is because
Speaker 1: of our labor, our sweat, our sacrifice, our love, our patriotism. Right.
Speaker 1: And so when we think about Malcolm and Martin, Martin
Speaker 1: becomes closer to Malcolm where he becomes this unfettered revolutionary,
Speaker 1: becomes a pillar of fire, an Old Testament prophet. He's Amos,
Speaker 1: He's Jeremiah, He's Moses by the end of his life,
Speaker 1: and Malcolm becomes closer to King where he starts to
Speaker 1: say that not only is he a prosecuting attorney, he
Speaker 1: becomes Black America's prime minister. In the last year of
Speaker 1: his life, Malcolm X had an office at the United Nations.
Speaker 1: Malcolm X could go and speak to Prime Minister Kwame
Speaker 1: and Kruma in Ghana, he could speak to nam diazakiway
Speaker 1: in Nigeria, he could speak to Mohammed Babu, who's the
Speaker 1: Prime Minister of Zanzibar. So that's when he becomes closer
Speaker 1: to Doctor King. So they really converge, and you could
Speaker 1: see the love and admiration that Malcolm has for him
Speaker 1: when he tells Correctis Scott how much he admires her
Speaker 1: husband in Selma. And when you read the statement that
Speaker 1: King sends after Malcolm's assassination, he expresses his admiration and
Speaker 1: says what a great man Malcolm X was who was
Speaker 1: constantly changing. So you can see the convergence between both
Speaker 1: of them even in their lifetimes. Let me tell you something, man.
Speaker 1: His name is doctor Pernil Joseph. The book is Disord
Speaker 1: and the Shield. I'm not even exaggerating when I say
Speaker 1: it's one of the best books that I've ever read
Speaker 1: in my entire existence on this planet. I think everybody
Speaker 1: should go out there and get Disword in the Shield
Speaker 1: right now. It explores the revolutionary lives of Malcolm X
Speaker 1: and Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. I can't wait to
Speaker 1: just read more of your stuff, Doctor Furnil Well, thank you,
Speaker 1: Charlotta Magne the God. It's it's been great. It's an honor,
Speaker 1: it's a pleasure to be here. You're an icon. So

Speaker 1: it up with you to dialogue, especially as somebody from
Speaker 1: New York City, a native New Yorker is doctor for
