00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,360

27
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 2: you should know. We're gonna get into it today. We're

28
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 2: gonna talk about Fanny Willis, those election results, also how

29
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 2: Trump was booed at the Libertarian Convention, and ten things

30
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 2: you know about the NC double a House settlement. I

31
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 2: think that's a really good story to talk about, So

32
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: let's get straight into it with my co host Jade

33
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: and Michelle. Fanny Lewis results. Now, guys, hey, we talked

34
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 2: about Fanny Willis. I just said Lewis, Fanny Willis. I

35
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: just made up and gave her last name Fanny Willis.

36
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: But yeah, she's been through a lot, so as you

37
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: guys don't know. For guys who don't know who, I

38
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: guess been living under a rock, which you shouldn't be

39
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: living on the rock, because if you follow my podcast,

40
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 2: you're pretty intelligence. But Fanny had an election, you know,

41
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: going on, despite her going against president former President Donald Trump,

42
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: despite all of the drama that went behind her ex lover,

43
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 2: mister Wade. She still had to run an election and

44
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 2: people were wondering would she be re elected in the primary,

45
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 2: and she won. She won her reelection in the Democrat primary.

46
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 2: Ran against a progressive, a man by the name of

47
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 2: Christian Smith, and she beat the breaks off of them. Guys.

48
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 2: She won by eighty seven percent. That's a very strong number.

49
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 2: For those who don't get it, let me just give

50
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 2: you the numbers to think this is important. I also

51
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: want people to know how many people actually go to

52
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 2: the polls. She won with seventy six thousand votes. Her

53
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 2: opponent got less than twelve percent of the vote with

54
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 2: eleven thousand votes. So that was a clear we like,

55
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 2: who are our district attorney is? So they getting out

56
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 2: vote pretty heavy in Fulton calend So shout out to you.

57
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 2: That's a high number, by the way, even though I

58
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: believe it looks like in twenty twenty for her general,

59
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 2: four hundred and thirty thousand people vote. So again, this

60
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 2: is the Democrat primary. I'm just going back and looking

61
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 2: at some old numbers, guys, because I just like, I'm

62
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 2: just a nerd in that way. Let's look at this

63
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty when she ran for the primary. Those

64
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 2: who don't know. So again, you have a Democrat primary,

65
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: which means we decide what Democrat is going to be

66
00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: person to go against the Republican. Republicans have a primary,

67
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 2: what Republican is going to be the person to go

68
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 2: against a Democrat in the general. So this is a

69
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: very interesting number. So in twenty twenty, we will say

70
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 2: that was a pretty high voter turnout year in Georgia

71
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: because it was during the pandemic. Remember they pushed all

72
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 2: of the the absentee ballots, the voting by mail. I

73
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: would one would argue that was a pretty high year

74
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 2: and voter turnout. Well, if we look at the numbers

75
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 2: in our Democrat primary, she got sixty four thousand in

76
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 2: the Democrat primary and this year the Democrat partmenty she

77
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 2: got seventy six thousand, So that says a lot. That

78
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: says a lot. So and said she turned out more voters,

79
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 2: turned out more voters, and during the time where people

80
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 2: can be against her because of all of the drama

81
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: with mister Wade, so as in.

82
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 4: The fact that he was talking while she was you know,

83
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 4: a four red re election campaign. He was out there

84
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,920
Speaker 4: doing interviews and stuff like that, and they were all

85
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 4: over the headline. So that is pretty remarkable.

86
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 2: Oh yeah's remarkable. That's why it's always important to dig

87
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 2: into the numbers, not to just say, oh, here's you one. No,

88
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 2: let's digg in the number. Let's se what we look like.

89
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: And the person she ran against at that time got

90
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: twenty five thousand votes, So that says that that person

91
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 2: doubled with this Christian did and so she's gotten out

92
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 2: more of us. So again, this is what we keep

93
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 2: talking about on get out the vote. People got to

94
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 2: understand get out the vote means how many people can

95
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 2: you get to come to the polls, not how many

96
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 2: people you get to stay home. That's why I keep

97
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: trying to tell you all these campaigns about staying home.

98
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 2: It actually helps people who are trying to get out

99
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 2: the vote because it helps me identify how many people

100
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 2: I need to get to the post. All I need

101
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 2: is fifty one percent, So y'all can stay home all

102
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 2: day long if fifty people show up at the poll,

103
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 2: If one hundred people show up to the post, as

104
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 2: long as I get fifty one, I'm still winning. So

105
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 2: you sitting at home, I'm just trying to let you

106
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 2: know you sitting hold on me. Now, bet you'd be

107
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 2: better off getting a third candidate or a second candidate

108
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: to split the vote. That's why I keep trying to

109
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 2: tell them, Jade, in the conscious community, can you let

110
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,119
Speaker 2: them know how this works, because staying at home means nothing.

111
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 2: You know why. Let's look at how many people stayed

112
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 2: home in this election. Folks who saying I'm just gonna

113
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: stay home, they're laughing at yous.

114
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 5: Are even laughing at you because you don't exist. You

115
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 5: don't have voting in your out there, you don't even

116
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 5: exist to campaigns, like literally don't exist.

117
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 2: Like literally eighty seven thousand people went to the polls

118
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 2: and made this decision. So the one hundred thousand that

119
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 2: stayed home, you it made no difference. The eighty seven

120
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 2: thousand got a chance to the side. So if you

121
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 2: don't want to go with the person that you are against,

122
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 2: get another candidate. That's how you do that. Put these

123
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,360
Speaker 2: nuts on the candidate on the ballot. Seriously, saying at

124
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 2: home means nothing. Four hundred thousand people live in that district,

125
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 2: so a whole bunch of people stay at home. What

126
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 2: they gotta do with up being elected, though she still

127
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: got elected, correct, So stayed at home means nothing. It's

128
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 2: a matter of how many people do you get to

129
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 2: the polls.

130
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 5: That's right, because if the four hundred thousand who were

131
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 5: eligible to vote got out and voted for her opponent,

132
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 5: she would not be in office right now. And so

133
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 5: getting out is where you make your decision is made

134
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 5: and known, and sitting at home just means.

135
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 2: You just hurner a part of the decision making the process.

136
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 5: That is that those forty eight thousand vod that's right,

137
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 5: those forty thousand, sixty thousand whoever voted, they made a

138
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 5: decision for you.

139
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 2: That's it. And on the Republican side, only eighteen thousand

140
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: came out and voted, but he was unopposed for the

141
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 2: primary election. So we look at those numbers and say, like,

142
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 2: right now, there's like I gotta go against my Republican

143
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,480
Speaker 2: I gotta, you know, I gotta because now she's gonna

144
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 2: go against his Courtney Kramer. Now people will say, oh, well,

145
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 2: it's no big deal. Only eighteen thousand came out, Well,

146
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: that's because he was on a post. It's gonna hit

147
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 2: different in the general. So in the general, when you

148
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 2: got Republicans who are coming out because we're in a

149
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 2: presidential year. So now we're talking about in the general

150
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 2: when they go down the ballot and decide it's not

151
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 2: just gonna be for Fulton County. Those Republicans are gonna

152
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 2: be out in November. You better believe it. So don't

153
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 2: get caught up with this. Eighteen thousand only eighteen thousand came. No,

154
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 2: that was for the primary. The number's gonna look different.

155
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 2: So that's why she's pushing to raise money. That's why

156
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 2: she's saying, I got to go against the machine. And

157
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 2: don't forget, she's also got to fight the Donald Trump

158
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 2: machine who just want to see her lose period because

159
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 2: of her going against Donald Trump. So that's going to

160
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,480
Speaker 2: be a very interesting election to look at number wise

161
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 2: and see what's what I'm gonna be all up in

162
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: that mix. So I'm just curious. I just like I'm

163
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 2: just a nerve that way. I like to see how

164
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 2: stuff turned out and what it looks like and you know,

165
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: doing an analysis on all of that. So I thought

166
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 2: i'd give people, you know, an update on that to

167
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 2: see how that turns out. And again, guys, if she

168
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: loses it's gonna be a number of components. If she wins,

169
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a number of things, not gonna be

170
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 2: just one thing. What she never should have win against Trump. No,

171
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: everybody ain't a fan of hers as well. Remember she

172
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 2: is a digital attorney, so plain people go to jail.

173
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 2: But then there's also people to say, I like that

174
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 2: she's tough on crime. I like that she you know,

175
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 2: sent folks to jail. I like that, Uh, you know,

176
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 2: the rappers and the drug dealers and all the crack down,

177
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 2: So all of that matters. These were all issues she

178
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 2: had to she has to dad to contend with before

179
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 2: Trump ever got in the mix. So if Trump and

180
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: the concert is getting the mix, what do we talk

181
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,199
Speaker 2: about in the last episode. How that message gets amplified

182
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 2: is the key to what will determine her race. So

183
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: the jury still out on Mr Wade. Don't know why

184
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 2: he's on a campaign tour. I don't know if he's

185
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 2: looking for the sympathying.

186
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 4: He wants to, you know, he wants to speak his

187
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 4: peace and let people know what his experience was and

188
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 4: that he's not a bad guy despite his issues with

189
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,719
Speaker 4: child support, etcenta, et cetera. So I mean, I don't know.

190
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 4: I'm just waiting for his book to drop. I would

191
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 4: I can predict, like miss Cleo, that he may be

192
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 4: trying to monetize off this and maybe dropping a book

193
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 4: pretty soon.

194
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 2: But well, I need him to know that a race

195
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 2: is still going on, a campaign, a race is going on,

196
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 2: and you've done enough, mister Waite, You've done enough. You

197
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: can wait until next year. But maybe they working together

198
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 2: with maybe what the hell do I know? Maybe she's saying,

199
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 2: I need you out there doing X y Z. I

200
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 2: don't know. I'm not a part of the strategy team.

201
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 2: You never know. We'll get a chance to see what

202
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: it all looks like. He's evidently not dogging her, for sure,

203
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 2: so maybe in the end, who's the same. We'll know,

204
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 2: We'll we'll get a chance to see what them poles

205
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 2: look like, though, because some poles gonna tell it all.

206
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 2: The post are gonna tell what worked and what did work.

207
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 5: Well because he ain't dogging her. But it then becomes

208
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 5: another side attraction. We just see to let it go,

209
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 5: let it die, you know, if it's over, it's over.

210
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 5: Be quiet again. Let's go back to the days where

211
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,760
Speaker 5: you know, we weren't kissing and telling yeah, I'm with

212
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 5: that period polls and no poles like we got it. Like,

213
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 5: so be quiet about the polls, be quiet about the bulls.

214
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,520
Speaker 5: You ain't getting hopes.

215
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 4: Write about the polls like you know, the voting polls

216
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 4: and the other polls.

217
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: You know.

218
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 2: About it. It's right, so right, So we'll see. He

219
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 2: did an interview with joy Reid. Be honest, I did

220
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 2: not watch it. I saw the clips, wasn't interested in

221
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 2: watching it really, but you know, hey, we'll see and

222
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,960
Speaker 2: in November, we'll see. That's just gonna be interesting race.

223
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 2: I'm starting to spend a lot of a lot of

224
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: time in Fulton County, So I'm excited, guys because I'll

225
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 2: be looking at this from a local standpoint and just

226
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 2: really seeing how all this stuff plays out. So I

227
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 2: spent a lot of time in Atlanta, and uh, last

228
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 2: weekend when I was there, just signs everywhere Fulton County had,

229
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 2: you know, big elected. This was not the only election,

230
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 2: you know, the only thing they were talking about sheriff

231
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 2: and some other stuff was going on. So it's just

232
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 2: Fullton County is just a very engaged county in Atlanta,

233
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 2: and uh, it was just exciting to see what I

234
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 2: was just looking at, just riding around, looking at all

235
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 2: the signs, and who's this or that, And I'm always

236
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: paying attention to you know, go back and look at

237
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,079
Speaker 2: it because I'm just a nerse so Fulton County a

238
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 2: lot on the table. Hope you guys if you did

239
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 2: not see it, it should be on demand. MSNBC did

240
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 2: a once again Battleground Georgia kind of docuseries last Sunday.

241
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 2: I recorded it and went back, came back and watching

242
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 2: it that I got home from Georgia. But certainly look

243
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 2: at that. It's one of the reasons why I will

244
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 2: be relocating to Atlanta. Georgia. It's the place to be,

245
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 2: it's the place to have voice. It is truly going

246
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 2: to be and is a battleground state. But I believe

247
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 2: a new generation of leadership, even opposing leadership. Some states

248
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 2: have just been locked up forever and will be like

249
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 2: South Carolina. But Georgia is primed for new leadership and

250
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 2: different voices. And you already have new leadership and different

251
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 2: voices down there now, but I think it's room for more.

252
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 2: So I'm excited about, you know, with the future hosts

253
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 2: for Georgia and hopefully will be a peach here soon.

254
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 2: So with us said, Trump was loudly booed at the

255
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: Libertarian convention.

256
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:14,439
Speaker 4: What you got on at, Jake, Yes, he was. This

257
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 4: is a sound of how Trump was greeted. Okay, So

258
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 4: over the weekend, the Libertarians had their national convention and

259
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 4: former President Donald Trump faced loud and consistent gooing throughout

260
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 4: his speech at the Libertarian Party Parties convention. It was

261
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 4: held at the Hilton here in DC. And this was

262
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 4: one of Trump's shortest speeches ever. Okay, it only lasted

263
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 4: for thirty four minutes. The Hecklan went on and on

264
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 4: and on, and listen, I gotta give it to Trump.

265
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 4: He stood there, he took those booths, and he kept

266
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 4: pushing the line. He kept urging the attendees at this

267
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 4: Libertarian convention to nominate him or at least vote for him,

268
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 4: and they blewed him consistently, and he went on and on.

269
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 4: Let's listen to some of it. Let's listen to how

270
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,599
Speaker 4: he was duled. Even when his name was introduced.

271
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 2: I would like to welcome to the stage a forty

272
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 2: fifth President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.

273
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 4: Unbelievable, even before Trump went and took the stage. One

274
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 4: of the speakers at the Libertarian convention had a lot

275
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 4: to say that basically, Trump is not a serious candidate.

276
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 4: He wouldn't be a serious like libertarian presidential candidate, but

277
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 4: they could use him for entertainment, and that he had

278
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 4: a lot to learn from them.

279
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 2: We're going to listen to this really quickly as well.

280
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 6: None of us are great fans of Donald Trump. I

281
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 6: mean that Donald is is it? Never mind, we have

282
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,839
Speaker 6: a lot to teach Donald Trump. We don't know if

283
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 6: he has any capacity to learn, but we must give

284
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 6: the benefit of the doubt in all cases. And I

285
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 6: think that Donald Trump is, of nothing else, a great

286
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 6: source of humor.

287
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: Right, So they.

288
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 4: Said that Trump was, if nothing else is a great

289
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 4: source of humor. This was really interesting because presidential candidate

290
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 4: Robert Kennedy Junior was also there. But I want to

291
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 4: read some of the quotes that Trump Donald You say

292
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 4: that did they welcome are okay?

293
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 2: He was also booed.

294
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 4: He was also he was not booting, heck bled nearly

295
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 4: as much as Donald Trump was. So that was something notable.

296
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 4: Now we do have some SoundBite trom Trump actually speaking.

297
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 1: Wrote an article yesterday in which he mentions just some

298
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: of the things that make me a libertarian without even

299
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: trying to be one. That's nice. De Roy wrote, Donald J.

300
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 1: Trump will address the Libertarian Party at this national convention

301
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 1: on Saturday. The Libertarian Party should nominate Trump for president

302
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 1: of the United States.

303
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 3: WHOA, that's nice. That's nice. Only if you want to win.

304
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 3: Only if you want to win.

305
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't want to win, Maybe you don't want

306
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: to win.

307
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: One thing that I did notice is that every time

308
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 4: Trump spoke about himself, he was met with booth. So

309
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 4: that's why they kept bullying him, because I guess it

310
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 4: felt like he was self absorbed.

311
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 2: He was booed when he said, you.

312
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 4: Know, libertarians want to vote for him, and it's very

313
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 4: important because we have a lot to get rid of

314
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 4: the worst president in history. And so the libertarians also

315
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 4: boo when Biden's name was brought up. But it's almost

316
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 4: every other thing that Trump said, he was booted. So

317
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 4: let me know, let you all, let me know what

318
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 4: you think about this. I was quite surprised that they

319
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 4: bowed him as much, but then again, I don't know

320
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 4: much about the Libertarian Party. Trump added, quote, only do

321
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 4: that if you want to win. If you want to lose,

322
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 4: don't do that. Keep getting your three percent every four years.

323
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 4: So basically Trump was telling them if they don't vote

324
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 4: for him, they're going to continue to only have basically

325
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 4: three percent of a political impact, which is really interesting.

326
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 4: I was very, very very surprised that Trump was met

327
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 4: with as many booze as he will happen. I thought

328
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 4: that the Libertarian Party they invited him there to potentially

329
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 4: see if he could get enough Libertarian delegates or a vote

330
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,280
Speaker 4: in order to win their support, But it seemed like

331
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 4: they didn't want him there at all, unless it was

332
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 4: just for entertainment purposes.

333
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:49,960
Speaker 2: As one of the speakers said.

334
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 4: Again Tess and Michelle, I don't know much about the

335
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 4: Libertarian Party and what their values are. I was under

336
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:07,760
Speaker 4: the assumption that many Libertarian voters voted Trump.

337
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 2: Into office, so I wanted to take across on that. Yeah,

338
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 2: so libertarians that usually kind of considered and consider it independent.

339
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 2: But first I just want to go back on just

340
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 2: people getting invited to stuff, So get just because somebody

341
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 2: get invited to that doesn't mean that the crowd gonna

342
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 2: like you. People get invited all the time. Chris Christy

343
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 2: was invited plenty plenty times to plenty of things, and

344
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 2: they booed him, you know, the entire time. So being

345
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 2: invited means doesn't mean that the party welcomes you. It

346
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,719
Speaker 2: means we want to hear all different positions, and so

347
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 2: you invite everybody across the board, and so a lot

348
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 2: of times, especially in order to be fair, they probably

349
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 2: invited Joe Biden. They probably invited you know, they invited

350
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 2: RFK the invite. So it was a matter of who

351
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,919
Speaker 2: was going to accept the invitation. So that has nothing

352
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 2: to do with if the crowd's gonna like them or

353
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 2: the parties gonna like. It has to do with who

354
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 2: can we get to come show up and speak. Number two,

355
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 2: This was a great thing for the Libertarian Party from

356
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 2: a strategy standpoint, because guess what we're talking about the

357
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,400
Speaker 2: Libertarian Party. Nobody's talking about the Libertarian Party. Had Trump

358
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 2: not showed up, had he not showed up and not

359
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,160
Speaker 2: getting and not been booed, nobody would be talking about

360
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 2: the Libertarian Party the same way. You're like, hey, what's

361
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 2: up with this Libertarian Party? So a whole bunch of

362
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 2: people now asking what's up with this Libertarian party? So

363
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 2: it was a very smart move to invite Trump because

364
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 2: Trump once again has captured the media. And although the

365
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 2: media is sitting back laughing, oh Boa, he was boom, boom, boom,

366
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,359
Speaker 2: You're still running forty eight hours of Trump. You're running

367
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,479
Speaker 2: forty eight hours of Trump on the campaign trail and

368
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 2: not in the courthouse. And guess what they'll be talking

369
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: about Tuesday in the courthouse. Trump captures the media every

370
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 2: single day. He knows how to dominate it, good or bad.

371
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 2: So we're talking about Libertarian Party, We're talking about how

372
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 2: he's on the campaign trail even though he's in the

373
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 2: middle of going to court. The people against Trump will

374
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 2: say he in the middle of going to court, and

375
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 2: look at him on the campaign trail. The people that

376
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 2: are with him, man, he in the middle of going

377
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 2: to court and he's still on the campaign trail. Do

378
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 2: y'all see how I said that? I said that the

379
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 2: same thing, But do you see I was received to

380
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,520
Speaker 2: different ways. Absolutely, while you're saying he's on the campaign

381
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 2: trail and he should be focused on court, they're saying, damn,

382
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 2: he a boss. He on the campaign trail and still

383
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 2: going to court. I guess what both of y'all talking

384
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:16,640
Speaker 2: about me, right, And ain't nobody talking about what Joe

385
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 2: Biden did this weekend? That's right? And the libertarian and

386
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 2: the libertarian parties what we call earned media meaning free media.

387
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 2: Now talking about the Libertarian Party.

388
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, because after these, after these sound bites and these

389
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,200
Speaker 4: viral cliffs of Trump bamboo, I definitely did a little

390
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 4: bit of research and digging to say, hey, what is

391
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 4: the Libertarian Party? What are their values? What are they

392
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 4: believe in? And I know that they are often skeptical

393
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 4: of or post to authority, state power, warfare, militarism, and nationalism,

394
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 4: but they may have different views on economics and political systems.

395
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,640
Speaker 4: So it's a really really interesting You're right, y'all both right,

396
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 4: Like everyone's talking about libertarians, so I guess they're getting

397
00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 4: their free media.

398
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 2: And of course they because nobody there can't afford media,

399
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,000
Speaker 2: so you get earned media, and this is how it works.

400
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 2: Brilliant strategy. I would invite Trump to wherever Trump is,

401
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,879
Speaker 2: That's where the media gonna be. Ain't nobody talking to

402
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 2: ROBERTA of Kennedy even though he was there, nobody's talking

403
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,920
Speaker 2: about I had to even ask, was robertave Kennedy there?

404
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,640
Speaker 2: You know there, so he spoke at the convention on Friday.

405
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 4: He faced backlash from delegates when nominated on the convention floor,

406
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 4: he received support from only nineteen delegates, and so he

407
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 4: lost in the first round of voting. They're expecting for

408
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 4: the Libertarians to announce, like which candidate they're gonna they're

409
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 4: gonna get behind. However, Trump was disqualified according to the

410
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 4: Libertarian party chair Angela McArdle, and she ruled him unqualified

411
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:47,399
Speaker 4: because his status as a Republican nominee. Trump's campaign stated

412
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 4: that a Republican presidential candidate typically cannot be nominated by

413
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 4: two political parties in most states. Trump, of course, he

414
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 4: addressed the issue on truth social stating, quote, the reason

415
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 4: I didn't file paperwork for the Libertarian nomination, which I

416
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 4: would have absolutely gotten if I wanted it, as everyone

417
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 4: could tell you by the enthusiasm of the crowd last night,

418
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 4: was the fact that as the Republican nominee, I am

419
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 4: not allowed to have the nomination of another party. Regardless

420
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 4: I believe I will get a majority of the Libertarian votes.

421
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 4: So Trump still is doing what Trump does, talking big

422
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 4: smack say he didn't, you know, explain why he did

423
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 4: not register as a candidate with the parties, but he

424
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 4: was disqualified, so he's definitely not going to be able

425
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 4: to get Therefore.

426
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,479
Speaker 2: They don't have no Jews anyway, I mean love who

427
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 2: we kidding? Bottom line is this was just a great

428
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 2: media strategy. That's it, a great media strategy to show

429
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,280
Speaker 2: that he's talking to people who are not willing to listen,

430
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 2: you know, willing to go out and talk to the

431
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,679
Speaker 2: man who's not listening and trying to get their vote

432
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 2: and I'm willing to show up. And remember he just

433
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 2: left the Bronx. So they're they're literally talking about how

434
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 2: they were talking about this morning. They were saying Trump

435
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 2: was going to all the places that Donald Trump will

436
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 2: never go. Tim Scott is saying, and he's saying he's

437
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 2: going to play is that people otherwise will not go

438
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 2: and that's what makes him great. So they know what

439
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 2: they're doing. They just do. Meanwhile, where's Joe Biden.

440
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 4: I don't know what Joe Biden is, but guess what

441
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 4: I know where the rubber chickens were over the weekend

442
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 4: Because a pack you're always talking about packs.

443
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 2: Test and Michelle checked this out.

444
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,720
Speaker 4: Secret Service agents confiscated rubber chickens distributed by a super

445
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,879
Speaker 4: pac aligned with Kennedy's presidential campaign at this Libertarian Party

446
00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 4: convention before Trump's speech. So yep, Tony Lyon's coachair of

447
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 4: the pro Kennedy American Values twenty twenty four super pac

448
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 4: confirmed the distribution of rubber chickens at the convention. The

449
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 4: Libertarian Party is anticipated to announce their nominee. So we

450
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 4: know where the rubber chickens were. Definitely don't know where

451
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 4: Biden was, But there's a lot going on there.

452
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 5: Michelle, Well, we shouldn't be surprised about Trump's prouse when

453
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 5: it comes to the media.

454
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 2: Trump has been a master of media. It's been in

455
00:22:58,119 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 2: all of it for a number of years.

456
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 5: Is the reason why we knew the Trump name and

457
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,640
Speaker 5: there was such high recognition when he ran for president.

458
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,959
Speaker 2: You didn't watch him on the Apprentice. You watched him

459
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 2: as a kid growing up doing cameos for you know,

460
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 2: being this multi millionaire billionaire about the gold toilets.

461
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:12,119
Speaker 1: Uh.

462
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 5: Trump has done uh, you know, he's made the media

463
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 5: work for him, so it would be no different in

464
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 5: this space. But that then begs or would and should

465
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 5: motivate any of his opponents to rethink their media strategy

466
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 5: and or think about how they better reach the people.

467
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 2: On the ground.

468
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 5: And I think that has been some of the contention

469
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:37,200
Speaker 5: for supporters of President Biden. Where is he and how

470
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 5: is he showing up? And why has he not figured

471
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 5: that out yet?

472
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 2: And that's why applies custom out a couple of weeks ago.

473
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 2: So that's right, Biden is just not good with the media.

474
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: The bottom line, They got to just focus on the

475
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 2: ground game, you know that. Just you just better get

476
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 2: knocking on them doors. That's about all you got. They

477
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,879
Speaker 2: just bottom line, they just can't You just can't be

478
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 2: troubled the media. That's just it. Now, Like a lot

479
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 2: of people just can't you and go back and forth

480
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 2: with Charleston White like it's just you just can't like it.

481
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 2: We just need to just accept the fact. It's just

482
00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 2: a couple of things we just learned this year. One,

483
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,440
Speaker 2: leave Kate out the hell alone. That's not a beef

484
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 2: that you want. And Cat Williams, you don't want that either.

485
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 2: So everybody just got to know their lane, and let's

486
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 2: just be honest with it. The media is not Biden's lane,

487
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 2: that's it. So you better get the knocking on the

488
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 2: doors because that's all you got.

489
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 4: Okay, So we know that. And I agree with you

490
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 4: on this point, Tad, And you've said it publicly several times.

491
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 4: You know this myth that all press is good press.

492
00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 4: It's just simply not true.

493
00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,040
Speaker 2: Very true, is that?

494
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 4: But what does it mean? For example, in this case

495
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 4: with the Libertarian Party, they're getting what you call yeah.

496
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 2: But that's good. Nothing's negative about them. When I say

497
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 2: all press is good press, we can just ask Diddy

498
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 2: about that. I don't know Diddy. Is all press good press?

499
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 2: I would probably say no. So when I hear people

500
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,360
Speaker 2: say all press is good press, that's people who don't

501
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 2: know pry it's good pr. Actually it's not. Actually it's

502
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 2: not Sean Diddy Combs. This is not good press. So

503
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 2: when I when I put that out there, is you know,

504
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 2: I'm saying that that that idea that as long as

505
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 2: you're in the media, uh, that's all the matters. No,

506
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 2: we got some candidates and I'm working with some clients

507
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 2: that good pressure, just saying what that ain't all press

508
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 2: wasn't good press for these particular clients. So what I

509
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 2: mean with Libertarian though, it's not about all press. But

510
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 2: this particular press is good press for them if nothing else.

511
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 2: Jay is asking what is a libertarian? So they won

512
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 2: nothing else and nobody if none else, they got none

513
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 2: else out of it. You looked up what is a libertarian?

514
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 2: I encourage everybody to google and my libertarian as there's

515
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 2: a quiz out there. Take the quiz and find out

516
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 2: where you stand. I stand a lot like a libertarian.

517
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 2: It's really in the middle. It's like you a little

518
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 2: bit a little bit of conservative, a little bit of liberal,

519
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 2: a little bit of Republican, a little bit of Democrats.

520
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,159
Speaker 2: Really like in the middle. The only reason why I

521
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,439
Speaker 2: would say I'm not a libertarian is because I just

522
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,920
Speaker 2: don't like the idea of uh party politics where you

523
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 2: kind of greeted this oath type of type of you know, environment,

524
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 2: we believe this, we believe that. I just don't like that,

525
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 2: you know, but I don't like that, And no things

526
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 2: I don't like hide behind the city. Well you know

527
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 2: how we do it in New York. You know, I'm

528
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 2: a Gemini where you know I'm gonna is, you know.

529
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 2: So I'm just not big and like aligning myself with

530
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:26,360
Speaker 2: any tribal anything across the board, like no it's not.

531
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 2: It's not because k Dot Kenneth is a Gemini if anything,

532
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 2: that was an L A d P, A discipline, if anything,

533
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 2: where you take it, it's a Gemini.

534
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 5: I beg to differ. I told you it is because

535
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 5: he's a Gemini. Happy birthday to Lenny Kravit. And now

536
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 5: this is out and Gemini has excuse.

537
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 2: Mam, Now it's a game bag. No, it's because k

538
00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 2: Dot is affiliated with POWERU. And that's how gang bangers

539
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 2: get down. It's called a discipline where we take you

540
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,399
Speaker 2: out in front of your friends and beat you. That's

541
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 2: why he said, beat your ass and hide the bible

542
00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 2: if God is watching. And so he took his rap

543
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 2: peer out and beat his ass. A discipline that was

544
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 2: a that was then l a thing, mama. That's why

545
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,119
Speaker 2: he said. You think open gonna let you talk about

546
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 2: pop nigga. So anyway, this podcast is not supposed to

547
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 2: be back. This ain't got shit to do with no Gemini,

548
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 2: You ain't no power Root. This got to do with

549
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,399
Speaker 2: him being a gang banger straight up.

550
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:27,679
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not a gag baker with Gemini. Though rappers

551
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 5: are Gemini's.

552
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 2: I never claimed to be k I I am just

553
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 2: saying harry up and push a line about don't take

554
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 2: one the harry up. But you wanted to hurry up

555
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:38,439
Speaker 2: and push a line about Gemini got some do No,

556
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 2: it don't don't have shit to do with being no Gemini.

557
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 2: It got everything to do with him being affiliated, and

558
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 2: that's what it is. He got everything to do with

559
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 2: his West Coast environment, even though he's not raising the

560
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,479
Speaker 2: West Coast just like I wasn't, but he's raised by

561
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,119
Speaker 2: West Coast. Niggas got everything to do with Snoop and

562
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,959
Speaker 2: all of them literally saying you have the banner you

563
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 2: are holding on for the West coast. He did that

564
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 2: shit was That's why I got a West Coast sound.

565
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 2: That's why I got a West Coast B. That's why

566
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 2: niggas everywhere is doing I don't even know how this

567
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 2: turning it is, but we're gonna go down this road.

568
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 2: But that's why everybody's c walking to it, B walking

569
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,680
Speaker 2: to it. That was called literally called a discipline, a DP,

570
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 2: a DP. So when little Duval was like, oh, yeah,

571
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 2: you're on a Gemini, think he want to credit Gemini. No,

572
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 2: that was a DP, a discipline. So for those who

573
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 2: don't know in gang banging when you and very similar.

574
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 2: You know, we talked about this also with Divine nine,

575
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 2: like when you bring in when you discipline somebody in

576
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,399
Speaker 2: front of your peers, So whatever that discipline is for

577
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 2: Divine nine, whatever that discipline is for that group, whatever

578
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 2: that discipline is. So in gang banging, a DP, that

579
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,000
Speaker 2: was a DP that was I'm taking my pier and

580
00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 2: I'm just a discipline your ass. And he did it

581
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 2: in a in a West Coast way, with a West

582
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 2: Coast sound, with a West Coast vibe, with a how

583
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 2: dare you put tupac and snoop using ai are you crazy?

584
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 2: Like all of that that was text book gang banging discipline,

585
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 2: even down to the lyrics, the family matters, They not

586
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 2: us all of that, like even all of that terminology,

587
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, like all like, no, he's

588
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 2: an outsider, he's a colonizer. Even though you know, you

589
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 2: look at k Dot and his conscious stuff, there still

590
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:24,560
Speaker 2: was a lot of gang banging la West Coast you know,

591
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 2: turnings elements that winning that which would make it was

592
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:32,719
Speaker 2: why it made it so dope. But the Gemini community,

593
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 2: but that wasn't it. And just for a point, of Claire.

594
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 2: You know, I'm a Gemini, Cancel cuss, I'm both of those.

595
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 2: But that that beef is really like that beef is

596
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 2: seriously all Joe side. It's gonna go down to history

597
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 2: one of the best beefs like ever because there's so

598
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 2: many children. Yeah, there's so many different elements that he

599
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 2: touched on that Drake just simply just not prepared. You're

600
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,479
Speaker 2: not deep enough. You're just not deep enough of that,

601
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 2: and and you fucked around and found out and it

602
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 2: had nothing to do with just the sound and lyrics

603
00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 2: and all that. He just went all the way deep.

604
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 2: That's why he's said, No, this is a real nigga challenge.

605
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 2: Now you you you can let la, you can let

606
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 2: a land in them make you think you want us,

607
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 2: but you ain't one of us. They not like us,

608
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 2: and shout out everybody to keep saying they not like

609
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,000
Speaker 2: us when you really are like them though. But that's

610
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 2: a whole other really interesting and the areas you know

611
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 2: where there's.

612
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 4: Warfare and clash, and there was a lot of clashing

613
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 4: that was happening at this libertarian convention between Trump and libertarians.

614
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 4: So the Trump, you know, Trump supporters were trying to

615
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 4: chant Donald Trump, Donald Trump, and there they got drowned

616
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 4: out by booth. So I thought that was really interesting.

617
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 4: The final final thought that I wanted to get from

618
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 4: you all, ladies, Michelle wrapping that back up.

619
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 2: Yes, right, so Michelle definitely likes and just that point.

620
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 2: I let Michelle ride on a lot of Gemini stuff.

621
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 2: But Michelle is one of the ones that well, you know,

622
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 2: I'm a geminist. She want to put it off on gymnal. No,

623
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 2: sometimes Michelle is just you, but I do it's just me,

624
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 2: but it may be the other me.

625
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 5: And that's what happens when you're dealing with a Gemini

626
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 5: asked Biggie as to ask prints ask Kate.

627
00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 2: I we have those moments, That's all I'm saying. Yeah,

628
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 2: that's particular. What is Cat Williams sign. Oh I can't

Speaker 2: This year is not to be fucked with. That's all

632
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 2: I know. That's that's the message at the end of

633
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. We don't take nothing else away from that.

634
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 2: But no, we're not gonna play.

635
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 5: Cat is a virgo, which is also ruled by the

636
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 5: same planet that Gemini is ruled by.

637

659
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 2: just gotta let the West Coast have that. And a

660
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 2: part of West Coast is gang you know culture. Just see,

661
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 2: it's just that whole that full song, the whole vibe, Like, no,

662
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 2: it's a West Coast thing. It's not a Gemini thing.

663
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:39,760
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, it's just not.

664
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 5: Well, y'all been waiting for a long time and to

665
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:43,840
Speaker 5: let y'all have that. But you knew hoh Us has

666
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 5: been waiting a long time to get paid for their name,

667
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 5: image and likeness.

668
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 2: College athletes, y'all really trying to move out, and see

669
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 2: I'm trying to stay. I'm like, I'm gonna pay this.

670
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 4: I love how Michelle was trying to trying to go

671
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 4: to these college athletes, but I really wanted to get our.

672
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:04,080
Speaker 2: Thoughts on Jay, like, no, we're still on the limitary

673
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 2: and okay, let's go get her areas. You know that

674
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 2: was trolling. This is the final thing I want to say.

675
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 4: I hope that my black Twitter family really understands that

676
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 4: this is a perfect example of the power of forming

677
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 4: a super pack. You can literally troll in real life

678
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 4: and have dollars. That's something that has always talked to

679
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 4: us about. That's just something that she always pushes this too.

680
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 4: So I wanted to make sure I illustrated that as

681
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 4: a perfect example.

682
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 2: On to you. That's right now, On to you, Gemini.

683
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 2: Well it was porting that Jay put that out because

684
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,840
Speaker 2: we do be talking to our conscious family all the time.

685
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 2: Get a pack like I believe it. I swear to

686
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 2: god I do. Y'all got the energy. It don't have

687
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 2: to be a lot like man, y'all troll like nobody's business.

688
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 2: Butatrolling in real life? Man, you ever include that? It's

689
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 2: over with. So but speaking of you, you can use

690
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 2: that transition again, Michelle, that you wanted to use. That

691
00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 2: was a great transition. Now, yeah, I'm about you said

692
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 2: I was about to spend the next thirty minutes on

693
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 2: talk because now y'all go, no this West Coast baby

694
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 2: all day the rest of it out. Test you anything

695
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 2: else in there that you want to I think. But

696
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,400
Speaker 2: when it comes back up, maybe it's a Gemini. I

697
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,279
Speaker 2: mean to bring it back up. I guess. I don't know,

698
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,480
Speaker 2: but that just means a lot like we've been waiting

699
00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 2: a long time. She is not about to take this

700
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 2: Hell no, you're gonna let the West Coast keep that ship.

701
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 2: Then y'all lead. Shout out to Ko once again.

702
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 5: Shout out to the Geminis and hall the gang bangers

703
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 5: who have been waiting on this.

704
00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:42,520
Speaker 2: But there are people who've been.

705
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 5: Waiting for a long time, a whole group of college

706
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 5: athletes who have been waiting a long time to get

707
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,840
Speaker 5: paid for the use of their name, image and likeness.

708
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 5: And a recent settlement with the d n C Double

709
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 5: A has brought that to farison for at least for now.

710
00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 5: The nd C Double A and Power five Conference organized

711
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 5: which include the ACC, the Big Twelve, the Big Ten,

712
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,800
Speaker 5: the PAC twelve, and the SEC, have agreed to settle

713
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 5: in anti trust case the case name House b NCAA.

714
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 5: The settlement is almost three billion dollars a settlement agreement,

715
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 5: which is historic. There's not been a settlement agreement or

716
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,280
Speaker 5: a decision made like this in the past that will

717
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 5: not only pay former athletes for their nil name, image

718
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 5: and likeness, but will also pay student athletes going forward

719
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 5: through a percentage of Power five school revenues. This settlement

720
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:41,480
Speaker 5: agreement still has yet to be approved by the US

721
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 5: District Judge Claudia Wright, and it's subject to appeals and

722
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 5: other legal maneuvers, but it's a historic settlement nonetheless, a

723
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 5: historic decision that's come forth. And what this means is,

724
00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 5: you know, we've seen this.

725
00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 2: Throughout the years.

726
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,759
Speaker 5: The athletes who play basketball on football at the collegiate

727
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,280
Speaker 5: level and the Division I level are not paid for

728
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 5: the use of their images in video games for instance,

729
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,280
Speaker 5: or advertisements or on jerseys. And while they're not being paid,

730
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 5: these students are expected to show up and participate in

731
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 5: all of the practices and all of the work that

732
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,919
Speaker 5: it takes to be a student athlete, and that could

733
00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 5: be anything from five am practices to practices in the

734
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,479
Speaker 5: evening and having to be at games and not having

735
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,920
Speaker 5: the time to work or make money on the side,

736
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,439
Speaker 5: and so a lot of these students rely on scholarships.

737
00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 5: It's important to note that of all of the revenues

738
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,279
Speaker 5: that these schools make, for instance, in the Big Five,

739
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,720
Speaker 5: the Power Five brought in three point five almost four

740
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 5: billion dollars in one year last year, the percentage of

741
00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 5: the scholarships with those revenues, though, for students who are

742
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 5: the athletes and play sports is for in football, for instance,

743
00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 5: it's only eight percent. It's eight point nine percent from

744
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:03,600
Speaker 5: the men's basketball. That is the amount of money allocated

745
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 5: for scholarships for these athletes. Although these organizations are bringing

746
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:11,680
Speaker 5: in billions of dollars a year. So this is gonna

747
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 5: be huge for college athletes going forward. Uh, and it's

748
00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,239
Speaker 5: important you know that we pay attention to this. What

749
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 5: do you all think about let me ask you a

750
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 5: question because I don't know. Also to the women as well, Yes,

751
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 5: it includes women's sports also, And so we just come

752
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:31,239
Speaker 5: off this big high, you know, women's basketball, and those students,

753
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 5: those student athletes were not paid, you know, for the

754
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 5: jerseys in their names, and the advertisements that went out

755
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:41,680
Speaker 5: around the games, the revenues from the cost of game tickets,

756
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:45,240
Speaker 5: they don't get any portion of that. So with the settlement,

757
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,759
Speaker 5: the revenues that schools make in the Power five, some

758
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 5: of that revenue will then be split into a revenue

759
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 5: sharing model that would then give that money.

760
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 2: Back to students. And I'm just gonna be curious what

761
00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 2: the revenue sharing model is going to look like because

762
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 2: again we know that women sports do not garner the

763
00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 2: same amount of attention as as men. We know that,

764
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 2: and we know the reasons why. I think actually, Harry Spears,

765
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 2: he did a commentary about it this weekend, and some

766
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 2: of that is partially true, Like some of it's not

767
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 2: just because of sexism, it's just the game may just

768
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,319
Speaker 2: be more exciting, you know, watch the men because of

769
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,400
Speaker 2: the skill set. I think he brought an important point.

770
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 2: I think sexism is a is a play in it,

771
00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 2: but I don't think it's all sexism. It is entertainment

772
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 2: and what's the most entertaining that people want to put

773
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,320
Speaker 2: butts in seats? But that is gonna be interesting to

774
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 2: see what that looks like for women, because obviously they're

775
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 2: they're not gonna bring the same amount of attention as

776
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 2: the men. And I'm wondering if they're gonna go with

777
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,879
Speaker 2: a socialist style model where everybody just gets something no

778
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 2: matter what you know, female or male athlete, or if

779
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,480
Speaker 2: they're gonna say no, no, women, you're only gonna get

780
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 2: the amount of people that show up, which is pretty

781
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 2: much nothing in college. So I'm just curious, you know,

782
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 2: what that's gonna look like because those because the reason

783
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 2: why I bring it up is because in the college,

784
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,920
Speaker 2: so professionals differ. But in the college model, when we're

785
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 2: talking about young girls, the time dedicated to go, you know,

786
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 2: to be a college athlete is the same amount of time,

787
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 2: if not close to the same that the boys. And

788
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:18,279
Speaker 2: so my point in what I'm saying is is they

789
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 2: don't have time to work outside jobs and outside hustles

790
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:22,959
Speaker 2: and all of that. So this is where I would

791
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 2: be in support of a model that is a revenue

792
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 2: sharing to give the females more even if they don't

793
00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:33,719
Speaker 2: garner that much support, if that makes sense because of

794
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 2: they are kids and the you know, the time that

795
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,359
Speaker 2: they're dedicated to this, they don't have time to make

796
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:44,840
Speaker 2: the outside money. Totally take an argument. Then the you know,

797
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 2: the woman lead you know where you're choosing to go

798
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 2: into that career and you're paid less and you got

799
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 2: to go overseas, and that's a whole other conversation. Should

800
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 2: they be paid the same YadA, YadA YadA. But on

801
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 2: the college level, I am interested if that model is

802
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,880
Speaker 2: saying that it has to do with people are watching

803
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,720
Speaker 2: this game, the women are screwed, and I'm just wondering

804
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 2: they still have to put in just as much time

805
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,319
Speaker 2: away from their studies and not a job to live,

806
00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 2: and some of these people are there on scholarships. This

807
00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 2: is how they you know, how they're paying their way

808
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,279
Speaker 2: through school, so they don't get additional revenue share. So

809
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 2: that's gonna be that's my thoughts on that on looking

810
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 2: at like what that's actually going to look like. I

811
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:24,839
Speaker 2: also think that it definitely will hurt HBCUs. But I

812
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 2: am pro people being paid. I think these kids need

813
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 2: to be paid for their time of These schools make

814
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 2: billions of dollars off these kids the slavery bottom line,

815
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,320
Speaker 2: so they need to be paid. But I am interested

816
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,720
Speaker 2: to see what that's going to look like. With HBCU recruiting,

817
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 2: it's already hard to get to get our athletes, our

818
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 2: best athlete athletes to come to HBCUs because they do

819
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 2: not get the TV time, which means they do not

820
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 2: get the opportunity to be seen to go into professional sports.

821
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 2: All of those different things. They don't have the support with,

822
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 2: you know.

823
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 5: The the facilities, the locker rooms, the jerk you know,

824
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 5: they just don't get so much as it is, and

825
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 5: this is yet another reason why somebody will go to

826
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,479
Speaker 5: a predominant white institution apposed to HBCU, but it's still

827
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 5: a good thing well, and they're having issues on the

828
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 5: Division one side of the schools that are not HBC

829
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 5: youths either. So a couple of years ago, the NDCAA

830
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,880
Speaker 5: announced that it will allow for the first time college

831
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:23,960
Speaker 5: students be college student athletes to be compensated for their nil,

832
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 5: their name, image, and likeness a couple of years ago.

833
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 5: But when that ruling came down, black college athletes sued,

834
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 5: deciding that their civil rights would being violated because essentially

835
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 5: what they found was that these colleges were colluding to

836
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 5: limit the earnings the players and sports in which black

837
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 5: athletes compete the most. And a study of the University

838
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,760
Speaker 5: of Southern California at twenty eighteen found that blackmail athletes

839
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,719
Speaker 5: and Division on sports make up fifty nine percent of

840
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 5: men's basketball players and fifty seven or excuse me, fifty

841
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,959
Speaker 5: five percent of men's football players and women's basketball. Black

842
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:07,600
Speaker 5: women made up of the black players. And according to

843
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 5: the Institute of Diversity and Ethics and Sports and so

844
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:15,279
Speaker 5: you know, even on even at predominantly white colleges and

845
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 5: campuses and Division one schools where black students are playing,

846
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:23,680
Speaker 5: they've been called out for essentially colluding to cap the

847
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 5: earnings just on the nil. So I'd be interested to

848
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 5: see how they not only settle that case, but how

849
00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 5: do they structure revenue earnings and nail earnings to ensure

850
00:42:37,120 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 5: that they aren't imposing undue caps that disproportionately impact black players,

851
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,080
Speaker 5: although black student athletes make up a majority of the

852
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 5: sports players individual one schools.

853
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 4: Felts on that, Jay, I know that athletes, college athletes

854
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,520
Speaker 4: sustain a lot of injuries, and they're put in their

855
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 4: lives and their bodies at risk, and they should definitely

856
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 4: be compensated for that because is an entire industry that's

857
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:05,240
Speaker 4: profiting profiting off of it. So yes, I'm in total support.

858
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 4: I think it definitely needs to be equitable to your point, Tes,

859
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 4: And I'm not sure how what this would look like

860
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,840
Speaker 4: at HBCUs because they don't get the same amount of

861
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 4: folks that they don't have the same type of money.

862
00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 4: You know, they aren't necessarily the same leagues as the

863
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 4: bigger schools or the division ones.

864
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,240
Speaker 2: So let's see.

865
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,160
Speaker 4: I want to see these children being compensated, and I

866
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 4: also want them to have the proper financial literacy education

867
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 4: and the supports places to have them invest their money

868
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 4: and to make their money grow as they are literally

869
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,359
Speaker 4: putting their bodies on the line in these sports. Many

870
00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:46,040
Speaker 4: of these are contact sports. Colleges also have you know,

871
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,440
Speaker 4: gymnastics teams, they have track and field teams, they have

872
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 4: so many look cross and all of these different things

873
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,839
Speaker 4: we have our athletes are participating in. But if they're

874
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,960
Speaker 4: making money, you know, large amounts of money, who's going

875
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 4: to support them to have that money after they graduate

876
00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:04,000
Speaker 4: and beyond?

877
00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, no financial literalis that is exactly perfect transition because

878
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 2: that's what I was gonna add as we close, that's

879
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 2: critically important. It should be mandatory in college. Watched the

880
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,960
Speaker 2: documentary I watched it this weekend, you know thirty for

881
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 2: thirty the ESPN they do these you know documentary series

882
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 2: and one was called Broke, and I'm telling you it

883
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 2: is phenomenal to watch. And it just talks about you know,

884
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,400
Speaker 2: athletes and how they go broke and with all of

885
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,640
Speaker 2: those different elements on how it actually happens and the

886
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 2: lack of financial literacy and even when you talked about investments,

887
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 2: like you hear investments, but there's levels to investment, Like

888
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,279
Speaker 2: a lot of people be coming in with bullshit and

889
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 2: they invest in the wrong type of investments. And we

890
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 2: see that Jabe and pushing a hard line behind the

891
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,480
Speaker 2: scenes on some investment stuff that went bad in our community.

892
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,280
Speaker 2: But people, oh yeah, invest in big tomatoes, like literally

893
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 2: like and so they talk about, you know, the bad

894
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 2: investments that they get approached with, they talk about the money.

895
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 2: It is just it's a documentary. It's an eye open documentary.

896
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:02,120
Speaker 2: Whether you're in sports or not, you just a nerve

897
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 2: information watch it. I watched that documentary. Side note, I

898
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,760
Speaker 2: also watched the Rick Flair documentary that was really good.

899
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:12,319
Speaker 2: That was really yeah, girl, it was good watch Rick

900
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,520
Speaker 2: Rick Flair. Something else. I love the way wrestlers talk

901
00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 2: shit because they talk shit like I do. I just love.

902
00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:20,359
Speaker 2: But I was like, let me as I went through

903
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,320
Speaker 2: the you know how you see all the different titles,

904
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:23,799
Speaker 2: and I like, let me see what Ric Flair ol

905
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,719
Speaker 2: And that was actually really interesting to watch that. If

906
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:31,960
Speaker 2: you've got time and just and I think he was

907
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,359
Speaker 2: very side note, this would make podcasts good. It might

908
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 2: turn to different conversations. But his transparency with his problems

909
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,320
Speaker 2: and addictions and you know, losing his son to addiction

910
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 2: and the ten thousand women he had been with, and

911
00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,000
Speaker 2: how he really was just in love with the character.

912
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:49,840
Speaker 2: He said flat out, I was a terrible husband, I

913
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 2: was a terrible dad, you know, but I was a

914
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 2: great wrestler. So just his level of transparency and how

915
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 2: he just it was just a very very interesting documentary.

916
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,840
Speaker 2: I watched that. I watched Leon Sanders double play. That

917
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 2: was really good playing. You guys may be too young

918
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,239
Speaker 2: a remember, because I did. I was even young at

919
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,440
Speaker 2: the time, and I remember them talking about it in

920
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:14,200
Speaker 2: middle school, but I didn't get I I didn't understand

921
00:46:14,200 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 2: what was going on. But him playing two sports in

922
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:22,560
Speaker 2: the same day. Phenomenal documentary. Phenomenal documentary. So definitely watched that.

923
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:23,919
Speaker 2: Dion Sanders double play.

924
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,880
Speaker 4: I just watched watching the anti social network Means to Mayhem,

925
00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:32,359
Speaker 4: and it's really about the start of the website four

926
00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,359
Speaker 4: Chan and how it kind of started out his website

927
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:38,000
Speaker 4: where people can come on and like make memes, and

928
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 4: then they started taking it to the streets and then

929
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:43,359
Speaker 4: they had the group Anonymous, right, and they were going

930
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:46,080
Speaker 4: out and protesting things, and they went to occupy. So

931
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:48,200
Speaker 4: it just really showed how like one website and an

932
00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,279
Speaker 4: online community grew to in person, but then it kind

933
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 4: of got out of control.

934
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 2: So I thought that was really interesting. Okay, well that

935
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,560

Speaker 5: just appreciated the eye candy. I thought it was a

950
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 5: great story. I thought I read that the creator, Dr.

951
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 5: Kipatrick is related to Kwame Kipatrick, the former mayor of

952
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:53,800
Speaker 5: Detroit who had all of the uh uh controversies and issues.

953
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 2: Yes, and so that adds another element, as you behind,

954
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 2: I watched that like, did you finish it all? I

955

00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 5: I thought it was really good, really well read and

957
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:05,600
Speaker 5: funny time.

958
00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 2: It was different, like we see a lot of the

959
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:11,279
Speaker 2: same storylines over and over, you know, so having a

960
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:13,920
Speaker 2: little detective I didn't expect it to be what it was.

961
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:15,840
Speaker 2: I just watched it because I just, you know, it

962
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 2: was like, hey, let me check it out. But yeah,

963
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,360
Speaker 2: it's very well written and very interesting.

964
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:23,200
Speaker 5: And I don't know if we can or I have

965
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 5: a checked to see if it's airy, but we need

966
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:26,160
Speaker 5: to be watching the Olympics.

967
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:29,359
Speaker 2: Shout out to Shakari Richardson for winning one hundred. Oh

968
00:48:29,400 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 2: y'all can give me the recaps. I won't be sitting

969
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 2: around watching it, but I do. I do like the recaps,

970
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,680
Speaker 2: but yeah, shout out, just put out. I don't necessarily

971
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:40,800
Speaker 2: watch the Olympics, but I will watch the cliffs or

972
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 2: I hope. I love when Kevin Hart and when they

973
00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 2: do Peacock, when they do the commentary, like remember wheen

974
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:49,239
Speaker 2: him a snoops.

975
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 5: Think they enlisted Leslie Jones this year. I thought I

976
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,400
Speaker 5: saw that I could be Kevin Hart. I don't know,

977
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,520
Speaker 5: I don't know. I just saw that Leslie Jones had

978
00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 5: been enlisted maybe tapped for that, or had been at

979
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,000
Speaker 5: one or the other for that guest commentary.

980
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,240
Speaker 2: But I think that, like, I mean sure that to Leslie.

981
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,080
Speaker 2: She's real supportive of me on Twitter. I know Leslie.

982
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 2: We did we did some life coaching work together. Oh really? Wow? Okay, cool? Yeah,

983
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,280
Speaker 2: I like her, but I don't know. I just feel

984
00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 2: like that formula with Kevin really worked. I liked him.

985
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:22,279
Speaker 2: I thought that was I thought that was so Yeah.

986
00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:26,720
Speaker 2: So that's what I've been watching. I also watched Baby

987
00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,399
Speaker 2: Rain there, which is weird as hell.

988
00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 5: But yeah, I need to start that. No, I need

989
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 5: to start that. I said, that's weirdes hell.

990
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,080
Speaker 2: But I it's wondering, what like am I'm really watching this?

991
00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 2: And you just continue to keep hold on. Way different Leslie.

992
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:45,040
Speaker 4: I know Leslie who actually like ran track and did

993
00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:46,120
Speaker 4: really well at the Olympics.

994
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 2: Not the same Leslie Jones, by the way, Like, wow, damn,

995
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:55,120
Speaker 2: you're really doing life coaches for real? Because Leslie is

996
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:56,759
Speaker 2: pretty popular. Okay, I was just going with.

997
00:49:59,520 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 3: Her.

998
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:01,479
Speaker 4: I like her segment on that on the Breakfast Clubs

999
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 4: when she came on, he was talking about those men

1000
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 4: she had.

1001
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love they got mad about that when I

1002
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,560
Speaker 2: loved her. You know, I'm a proponent in baye get

1003
00:50:09,560 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 2: you some medication. I love They got real mad at her.

1004
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:13,880
Speaker 2: That's the part of the sick that I enjoyed, when

1005
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:18,760
Speaker 2: you're telling you trying to get you some medicine. But anyway,

1006
00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 2: I'm not say that was good. So yeah, I definitely

1007
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:28,240
Speaker 2: watched that that that documentary. I sent it to my friend.

1008
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 2: He has a brother that's in playing college now, college

1009
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:33,400
Speaker 2: ball now, and I was like, you need to have

1010
00:50:33,440 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 2: him watched this, like literally make him watch this because

1011
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 2: it was just really really an eye opener, and they

1012
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,240
Speaker 2: really do need to get these kids some financial literacy.

1013
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 2: Whether they listen to it or not, still give them

1014
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,880
Speaker 2: the information because our job is just give it information.

1015
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 2: You don't have to listen to it, but I'm just

1016
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 2: giving information. Just check you were told so. Because the

1017
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 2: main point, and I'll say this as we close of

1018
00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:56,400
Speaker 2: understanding that there it is an opportunity. It's not a

1019
00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 2: career career where you think, oh, I'm going to be

1020
00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 2: doing this for twenty twenty five years. No, it's an

1021
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 2: opportunity that may last five to six years at best

1022
00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:05,759
Speaker 2: for the average person, and so when you get in

1023
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 2: and you're thinking you're gonna be making thirty million dollars

1024
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 2: for the next twenty years, it just doesn't work that way.

1025
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,360
Speaker 2: And it really does break down all of the different

1026
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,080
Speaker 2: levels that eat set your money, from the women, to

1027
00:51:15,120 --> 00:51:18,040
Speaker 2: the baby mama's, to the club and to the investments,

1028
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:22,479
Speaker 2: to the lack of knowing, to the family. Everybody wants

1029
00:51:22,480 --> 00:51:24,440
Speaker 2: something from you. I mean, it was just really good, y'all.

1030
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:26,959
Speaker 2: So check it out. You'll learn something on your own,

1031
00:51:27,239 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 2: like even for yourself, like, wow, okay, I really do

1032
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,080
Speaker 2: need to learn how to say no. I really do it.

1033
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 2: And Michelle, you know, we've been a lot of conversation

1034
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 2: about this lately about you can have a really good year,

1035
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 2: and because that's how I feel about the media, you

1036
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,880
Speaker 2: can have a really really strong year. Everything be popping

1037
00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,799
Speaker 2: everything you notice in real time to share, Like I'm like,

1038
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,799
Speaker 2: oh man, that's the same thing in political consult too.

1039
00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 2: You know, see things it's cyclical, seasonal, and you get

1040
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 2: caught up thinking, oh, after this, I'll just pick up

1041
00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:53,319
Speaker 2: another race. After this, I'll just pick up da da

1042
00:51:53,360 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 2: da dad. And you know, like Michelle, we may get

1043
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:58,279
Speaker 2: paid once a year, may get multiple checks through after

1044
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:02,880
Speaker 2: it just depends. So manage your money is critical, critical, critical, critical.

1045
00:52:03,360 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 4: I'm an anti racism trainer. I started back in twenty

1046
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 4: sixteen and the work was popping. I could work like

1047
00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 4: part part time and sustain my livelihood. And now with

1048
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:17,240
Speaker 4: all these new policies and it's anti DEI, anti critical race, everything,

1049
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 4: it has not been recession proof.

1050
00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, it's a real thing. So watch the

1051
00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 2: documentary Sports or Not. It just reminds you that we're

1052
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:36,480
Speaker 2: not alone in this seasonal you know it's gonna be

1053
00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:39,319
Speaker 2: good for a year or two, you know, mindset. It

1054
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 2: really helped, you know, clarify some things, things that I

1055
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,320
Speaker 2: already knew. But it was just still really good to

1056
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,919
Speaker 2: watch because that's what I've been really saying, Like, even

1057
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 2: if I get a great contract, I still know you

1058
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:51,839
Speaker 2: have to know in your mind it's gonna last a year,

1059
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 2: it's gonna last three months, it's gonna last six months,

1060
00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 2: and it's nothing to do with personal it's just have

1061
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 2: a business is set up. So if you if by

1062
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 2: me watching and I was like, oh, I'm doing pretty good,

1063
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:03,800
Speaker 2: then I've been able to hold on to this for

1064
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:07,919
Speaker 2: that because watching them blow through to thirty million. I'm like, okay, yeah,

1065
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 2: I'm I'm doing all right if I'm able to, you know,

1066
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,960
Speaker 2: I gotta definitely Michelle made me not feel as okay,

1067
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:19,279
Speaker 2: So okay, I'm cool. At least I under I get it.

1068
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:22,839
Speaker 2: So perspective, yeah, oh for sure, it's really really good.

1069
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 2: It helped me a lot. So that's like, we're adults, right,

1070
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,399
Speaker 2: and we do consulting work.

1071
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 4: But imagine a college athlete having an opportunity to make

1072
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 4: all this money. And you said it's an opportunity, it's

1073
00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 4: not a career, and so I'm only thinking about I'm

1074
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 4: thinking about that college athlete that God forbid gets injured

1075
00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:45,120
Speaker 4: or maybe they don't make it to the NBA or

1076
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:47,480
Speaker 4: to the big leagues and they've made all of this

1077
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 4: money in college and they feel let down, Like how

1078
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:54,720
Speaker 4: do they recover from that? Even from an emotional or psychologist.

1079
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:56,960
Speaker 2: Some people never do. Some people never do because their

1080
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 2: mindset was set up. This was all I had, this

1081
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 2: was all going to do. And they even talked about

1082
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,400
Speaker 2: that in the documentary, like where some athletes were. Now

1083
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,239
Speaker 2: you see some athletes still going back and getting their

1084
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 2: college degree, like saying, no, I'm still need a backup plan.

1085
00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:11,040
Speaker 2: And this is where again this type of education is important,

1086
00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:13,880
Speaker 2: like to tell kids now, like you need to still

1087
00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:15,799
Speaker 2: get your degree, and that degree needs to being something

1088
00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:17,520
Speaker 2: you can actually work in and you still need to

1089
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:20,080
Speaker 2: have other different hustles. And that's why the documentary is

1090
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:23,080
Speaker 2: really really good, not just even for college athletes, because

1091
00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:24,719
Speaker 2: college athletes you think, Okay, I'm gonna go to the

1092
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,319
Speaker 2: NFL and you don't. But that fall when actually getting

1093
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 2: into the NFL and losing it all, that's a big

1094
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 2: damn fall. And that's where the drugs comes in, especially

1095
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 2: people being addicted after those injuries and using that to cope.

1096
00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:39,880
Speaker 2: Like they break all that down how people end up suicidal.

1097
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 2: I mean it's deep. It's deep. After college you can

1098
00:54:43,239 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 2: take I do know there's a mental thing with that,

1099
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 2: like damn, I thought I was gonna go to the

1100
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 2: NBA or the NFL, but there's still some in their mind.

1101
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:53,680
Speaker 2: Note it's not guaranteed, but when you finally go and

1102
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 2: then you injure yourself a year after or you finally go.

1103
00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:58,720
Speaker 2: They even talk about that how people don't set aside

1104
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 2: money for those injuries that you're gonna have these injuries,

1105
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,000
Speaker 2: so like for the rest of your life. Everybody's not

1106
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 2: Deon Sanders, where you're able to steal take care of

1107
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:09,040
Speaker 2: your injuries from having turf toe twenty years ago. Like

1108
00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 2: these are real things. Everybody don't get endorsements. It talks

1109
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 2: about the very small percentage of endorsements, like everybody's not

1110
00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:17,440
Speaker 2: a Lebron James, you know, so your insurance in the

1111
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:20,239
Speaker 2: NFL for instances and to continue once you're out, So

1112
00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 2: it's right how they sure that covers it you They

1113
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 2: don't get anything and they give you something like twenty

1114
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:27,279
Speaker 2: thousand dollars severances and things like that. It's amazing, Like

1115
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:30,080
Speaker 2: I'm saying, that documentary is really like, Wow, this is crazy,

Speaker 2: you tap in with us. I do appreciate it. Guys,

1137
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:29,600
Speaker 2: coming up on my fourth year, want to keep it going.

1138
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 2: I want to keep this podcast going. Make sure you

1139
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:34,200
Speaker 2: send a review or just send me an inbox like

1140
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,560
Speaker 2: you guys do on Instagram, but really an inbox. I'm

1141
00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,799
Speaker 2: be honest with you. I appreciate the inboxes, but we

1142
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,440
Speaker 2: need the reviews. We need them, folks to see it.

1143
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:45,319
Speaker 2: Sending me a private message. I appreciate it, but it's

1144
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:48,080
Speaker 2: not about us. It's not about me personally, my ego.

1145
00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:51,280
Speaker 2: It's about the powers that be knowing that this information

1146
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:54,840
Speaker 2: is important, knowing that it's value. Podcasting is not easy.

1147
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:58,480
Speaker 2: It's certainly not easy for information podcasts. Your most popular

1148
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 2: podcasts are talking about the culture and the drama, and

1149
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:03,919
Speaker 2: so although we do tap on those things from time

1150
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:06,800
Speaker 2: to time, and it's not the core. And so the

1151
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:09,839
Speaker 2: number one listener will podcasts are white folks. It just is.

1152
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 2: And so black effect is really trying to make a

1153
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,239
Speaker 2: mark to say black people listening to podcasts as well,

1154
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 2: but seventy percent of podcast listeners to white people, and

1155
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:19,880
Speaker 2: so they have really dominated this market. I'm not talking

1156
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:23,640
Speaker 2: about YouTube. I'm talking about podcasts, like actual podcasts with

1157
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 2: iHeart audio only you know in the lit you know

1158
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 2: Apple Apple, how they list not not just iHeart, but

1159
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 2: how if you go to Apple and you hit podcasts

1160
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 2: and you see the number one and the number ten,

1161
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:37,680
Speaker 2: the number they're all white podcasts. So they do a

1162
00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:42,120
Speaker 2: lot of information audio learning while we're focused on we

1163
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 2: need to see all the time and turn the video on.

1164
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,919
Speaker 2: Y'all notice that even on Instagram to keep the video off.

1165
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 2: Just listen. Be an audio learner. Sometimes you don't have

1166
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:52,840
Speaker 2: to see everything and be entertained and switching up graphics

1167
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 2: and all the time to keep your attention, listen to

1168
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,959
Speaker 2: the information. So it's important, guys, that we keep keep

1169
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,880
Speaker 2: a position in this space. It really really is, because

1170
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 2: this is the way of the future. It's not gonna

1171
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 2: be videos, not gonna be cables, not gonna be in

1172
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:07,760
Speaker 2: these things. It's really gonna be the cheapest and the

1173
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 2: easiest way to get information out, which is the podcast space.

1174
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:11,760
Speaker 2: I want to make sure that black people have voice

1175
00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,200
Speaker 2: in that as well. So it's the only four mad

1176
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:15,520
Speaker 2: that I can just go on and on and on

1177
00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:18,360
Speaker 2: and on and on and talk for hours without being charge,

1178
00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 2: you know, or without having to whey about clicks and

1179
00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:22,480
Speaker 2: likes and all that type of stuff. All I'm asking
