It won't stop, 0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:13.920 and it's like, bro, you gotta stop. 0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:18.760 But as someone who's been in flow state before, like 0:01:18.959 --> 0:01:21.000 you see it when you're like yep, that's how if 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:23.120 you're like that, like when you just can't miss so 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:24.560 you're just going crazy. 0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:26.000 It was cooking too hard. 0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:28.520 Yeah, I've done it, cause you probably had sets like 0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:30.800 that where you're like, oh, I could say anything and 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:33.280 it's gonna work. Yeah, I'm going nuts, you know. 0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:38.640 No, there are times, and it's the reason I despise 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:42.440 the crowd work clips that that our art form has 0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:44.840 sort of devolved into. But there are times when you're 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:49.040 like engaging with an audience in such a funny, sincere 0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:54.200 way that it it goes on for like minutes, like 0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:55.000 I kind. 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.520 Of where you're like, oh shit, that riff was fifteen minutes. 0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:02.840 Yeah, it's just a long ass time. And that's not cutable, 0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:04.520 you know what I mean. Like, that's not a thing 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:07.080 that you can chop up and make into like a 0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:09.040 thing you offer up to an audience. 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:11.679 Oh yeah, that's why you don't ever trust a five 0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:14.959 second crowd work clip. It's not real. Yeah it wasn't 0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:15.600 that funny. 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:20.160 They had a big laugh and then it stopped really fast. 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:23.239 Yeah yeah, I didn't know how to keep going. Yeah yeah, 0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:26.680 it was like somebody said, one interesting thing. Anyways, we're 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:33.240 not here to talk about Stu' it's thinks and the 0:02:33.440 --> 0:02:36.880 art that I love has uh has become something that 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.920 I barely recognize. But that's not the point of this podcast. 0:02:40.680 --> 0:02:44.680 This podcast, especially today, we are we're talking to you 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:49.200 the listener. We're reading your emails. We're engaging with your thoughts, 0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:51.639 your suggestions. And we got an email from a person 0:02:51.760 --> 0:02:55.040 named Aliyah l I y a h just like the 0:02:55.080 --> 0:03:01.320 singer got you personality, mentality a man. Anyways, I miss 0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:04.799 her too, she was great. We all miss her. 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:12.040 Nothing nothing I wish they had anyways. I just sometimes 0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:13.600 I feel like somebody needed to take care of that 0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:17.360 little girl, like you know, yeah, she was like bounched 0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:21.000 around to a lot of men. It feels like dark. Yeah. 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.720 No, I think that's one hundred percent true of a 0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:28.799 person who who maybe needed somebody just to look out 0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:31.160 for in a way that that she never really got 0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:32.119 by the end of it. 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:34.760 So you want to read an email, No. 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:42.640 Let's just have them the silence. Let's just stood in 0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:43.960 that feeling for a second. 0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:52.040 Two seconds too later, Sorry, that's okay. 0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:54.520 We got an email from a person named Aliah who 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:59.560 sent us as subject line Satan's Yoga. Satan's Yoga, She says, Hi, 0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:03.560 David and length and longtime listener back again with another conspiracy. 0:04:04.000 --> 0:04:07.400 This one actually comes from my grandmother, a Southern black 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:11.520 woman who later in life became a Jehovah's witness. One 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:14.560 day later, in life. She started that shit later in life, 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:16.080 that makes more sense. 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:18.560 In starting it earlier in life, Like, you can't convert 0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:20.600 to Jehovah's witness in like your mid twenties. 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:24.839 I don't picture early in life being your mid twenty conversions. 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.240 I picture early in your life, meaning you grew up 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:30.599 in the Jehovah. Oh but she converted, she said, right, 0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:33.640 And I'm saying that converting to Jehovah's witness is a 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:34.480 silly thing. 0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:36.720 You've already had some birthdays. 0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:39.240 Yeah, you know what Christmas feels like? 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:40.880 Yeah, you go. 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:43.120 Are you shifting back for. 0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:46.360 Taking that away from your children? You monster? Yeah? 0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:49.760 No, that's that's an odd fucking choice. So you want 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:51.760 to go door to door? Okay? 0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:57.240 Anyways, those shit. Your grandma's a sweet woman, earliah or Ns. 0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:02.400 I don't know hard to say the but I'm leaning 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:03.160 towards the latter. 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:06.280 One man's cuckoo is another man's cocoa puffs. 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:12.039 One day, after watching a commercial about yoga clothes, she 0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:15.320 went on a rant about how doing yoga is evil 0:05:15.440 --> 0:05:18.279 and if you meditate, you will mess around and open 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.600 up your mind so much you will let satan in. 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:25.600 I understood her to mean meditating can be a pathway 0:05:25.600 --> 0:05:28.640 to connect with Satan. Similarly, how praying is a way 0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:31.719 to connect with God. I grew up going to church 0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:35.400 as well as the Kingdom Hall. So I am conflicted. 0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:38.920 I believe in spirits and have an ancestor alter myself. 0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:41.400 So just as there is a way to channel the 0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.559 good spirits, there has to be a way to channel 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:46.400 the bad ones. I'm interested in hearing what you guys 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:47.080 think best. 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:56.680 Aliah, Well, Aliah, I think you're a witch, and I 0:05:56.839 --> 0:06:01.280 rebuke thee in the name of the One True Lord. No, 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:08.599 I think that. So here's what I don't like about this, right, Yeah, 0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:12.360 the idea of like, if you meditate or you do yoga, 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:16.000 you're gonna open your mind so much. So that's what 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:18.479 like I don't like. It's like, I don't like the 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.080 idea that an open mind is what leads to the devil. 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:24.000 That means God wants you to have a closed mind. 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:27.320 That means he's like reductive as fuck and does not 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.520 want you to open you up to whatever your true 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.880 potential is. He doesn't want you to be free. And 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:36.240 that's not like the God. If that that's not like 0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:37.120 a God. I'm trying to. 0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:41.880 Say, right, a god that encourages you to sort of 0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:44.440 live in a bubble is not a god that you 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:46.120 you recognize. 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:49.640 Well, just like, yeah, any type of like don't open 0:06:49.720 --> 0:06:53.000 your mind is a great Like really think about what 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:58.320 you're saying within that. That's like, that's terrible. Nobody okay, 0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:01.440 nobody ever leave your small town. Don't never try to 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:04.159 do something that no one in your family did, Like, 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:07.120 don't ever push for anything. Then you know what I'm saying, 0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:11.400 don't open your mind. That's fucking that's like, that's that's trash. 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:15.080 I don't think that God is like that. I don't 0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:17.160 think the God of Abraham, I don't. I don't know 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:18.520 if that is what he's pushing. 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:22.960 I will say that that I myself read this to 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:27.160 mean something slightly different, although I do agree with your 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:30.160 sentiment that that if this is about just sort of 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:34.640 keeping people closed minded, then that feels reductive and not 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:39.360 at all like a progress or even a love that 0:07:39.680 --> 0:07:42.720 is suggested to be shared by the God above us. 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:48.480 Whatever that said, I thought about my relationship with like spirits, 0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:51.640 and in a lot of ways this tracts for me 0:07:51.800 --> 0:07:54.480 of like I don't fuck around with Ouiji boards. I 0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:58.880 don't fuck around with like haunted houses, like genuine haunted houses. 0:07:58.920 --> 0:08:00.800 I'll go to a place one whatever. 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:04.200 But what what do you mean by that?

Me and my 0:08:41.640 --> 0:08:43.320 girl went to one of those over at Halloween and 0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:43.800 that was fun. 0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:45.600 Yeah, no, that's a good time. 0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:47.280 I was like, they try to play me.

So 0:08:50.480 --> 0:08:53.440 we went to the haunted house and then there was 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.640 like if you pay like an extra, they like take 0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:58.319 you to a secret bar in there and give you 0:08:58.360 --> 0:09:01.520 a shot during the Haunted House. Oh so we went. 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:03.960 We went, and we went to the secret bar and 0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:07.559 this nigga bro he was pouring drinks and he poured 0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:09.080 my girl on.

Yeah. Oh, she looks 0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:26.600 like you was scared of us. It's the children's playhouse. 0:09:26.840 --> 0:09:29.280 I look like I'm not about to tipyo ass. Yeah, 0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:30.199 I look like I. 0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:33.160 Don't work at the fucking fucking hearted House because I 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.600 can't make child support. That's what I look like. I 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.239 looked like I fucking took an Uber black. Here you broke, boys, 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:41.480 I didn't drove. 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:44.640 I say, why why are you taking uber blacks. 0:09:45.440 --> 0:09:48.720 I've actually never taken an uber black. I was trying 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:49.520 to impress you guys. 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:53.480 No it worked, I thought, but no, I I try 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:58.640 not to mess around with sort of like dark spirits 0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:02.240 and ghosts and all kinds of things out of fear 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:07.440 that I do think it welcomes some of that into 0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.320 your world. That like, if you go seeking that shit, 0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:14.000 you will find something. Even if that's something you find, 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:16.840 it's just made up in your own head. And so 0:10:18.000 --> 0:10:21.920 in that way, I recognize what she's saying to simply 0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:25.000 mean like seek it and you shall find it in 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:29.439 both good and bad ways. Now, why the fuck yoga 0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:33.520 is her her passion for where Satan is lurking? 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:37.320 I have no idea. Here's what I'm gonna say. Yep, 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:41.880 this is I've lived among the woos, you know what 0:10:41.920 --> 0:10:45.320 I mean. I live in San Francisco, Big Witch Country, 0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:49.720 Los Angeles, also big Witch Country. If you're far away 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:53.240 and you don't quite know, I understand how these yoga 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:57.080 ladies and men could seem like they were into some 0:10:57.160 --> 0:11:00.680 evil shit, you know what I mean, just like glancing 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:02.600 and being like, what are they doing over here? They're 0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:06.840 dressed all wacky, they're burning sage and shit like it 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:08.920 could feel like some witchcraft for sure. 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:12.040 Yeah, I will say that that to that point with 0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:16.319 dog that that ain't doggy style. 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:18.400 I know you that when I come from dogs stand 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:19.079 up right. 0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:23.640 They shake your hand like like a man. 0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:24.520 If you and I. 0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:30.400 Will say that to that point, A lot of what 0:11:30.640 --> 0:11:34.560 yoga is in America is just a sort of like 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:39.320 cherry picking of other people's cultural identities and like their 0:11:39.400 --> 0:11:43.640 actual spirituality. And so in that way, it does feel 0:11:43.679 --> 0:11:48.200 like sort of a false manipulation of spirituality, right that, 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:52.080 like the ship that we recognize as yoga is not 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:56.800 what they were doing when Indians invented the ship, you 0:11:56.880 --> 0:11:58.640 know what I mean. It's just some some ship that 0:11:58.800 --> 0:12:01.920 like some white women took and then like decided to 0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:05.640 take some words and leave some words behind in certain poses. Yes, 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:10.080 certain ones know and that that is not not sort 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:13.680 of like fucking around with spirituality in a in a 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:14.520 messed up way. 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:16.960 I think it does lead to this whole idea of like, 0:12:17.120 --> 0:12:18.760 that's why I don't like people when they say they're 0:12:18.800 --> 0:12:22.760 just I'm spiritual, because it's like pick a discipline. 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:24.840 Yeah, you know what, you gotta commit. 0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:27.880 Commit to something you're loosey goosey, then you might as 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:30.640 well just be agnostic. Like what does that mean? I 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.360 think this could be true and that you need rules. 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:36.720 There needs to be some sort of rules. It is. 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:40.040 It is the one part of the Bible more than 0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.280 any other part that I think I most connect with 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:46.920 where it talks about God not wanting you to be lukewarm. 0:12:47.040 --> 0:12:51.040 That like a lukewarm person is maybe the worst person 0:12:51.120 --> 0:12:53.480 you could be. That you got to be hot or cold. 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:56.800 Either believe in something or don't believe in something. But 0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:59.560 like kind of fucking around in the middle is like 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:05.920 danger rus and frankly just condescending to the fundamentals of 0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:07.120 the actual belief. 0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:10.920 Don't stand for anything for something, Yeah, don't stand for something. 0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:16.680 Yeah, you didn't get it right for me twice. You 0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:17.640 can't fool me again. 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.680 I'd rather live on my feet than stand on my knees. 0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:36.199 I was getting some head, some head, not if. 0:13:36.080 --> 0:13:37.079 You buck. 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:51.600 Yeah, I think you gotta believe in something. And so 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:55.160 for a Leah's grandmother, I think in some ways she's like, well, 0:13:55.200 --> 0:14:01.400 these people are being lukewarm spiritual, sort of like cherry pickers, 0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:04.880 and I don't like that, and that seems like that's 0:14:05.000 --> 0:14:09.000 of the devil, that is of Satan, and so I rejected, 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:13.240 all yeah, I think that's yeah. So so I don't 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:17.640 agree per se that like Aliah, if it makes you 0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:19.640 feel better, I think you can do as much yoga 0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:22.960 as you want. I don't think the devil sitting on 0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:26.400 a mat being like yeah, yeah. 0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:29.920 I think that that's exactly what I think. He's doing. 0:14:30.680 --> 0:14:33.040 I think he's hanging out in yoga studio. 0:14:33.200 --> 0:14:35.040 I think he's just watching ladies bendover. 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:40.720 That's the case. You're only selling me on the devil. 0:14:40.760 --> 0:14:41.840 I think he's got a toothpick. 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:48.480 Yeah, okay, oh somebody's limba. 0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:54.359 Look at child's probably should. 0:14:54.920 --> 0:15:02.240 Don't look like no child to me, Like they're like 0:15:02.480 --> 0:15:06.480 grown woman posed like how women supposed to be. 0:15:25.320 --> 0:15:27.600 Maybe that's what the devil is doing. And if that's 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:29.720 the case, I think more of us should be worshiping 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:34.200 the devil because he sounds like a cool guy. And 0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:36.000 then I'm into him. 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:40.960 Is gone sixty. I'm sucking it up now. I did 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:45.320 a spin move? Have you ever done a spin on 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:46.040 the dance floor? 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:49.160 When I was a when I was in high school, 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:52.080 I was a dancing ass kid, and so yeah. 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:52.720 I used to do. 0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:56.640 I used to do, and now as an adult, I 0:15:57.320 --> 0:15:59.920 couldn't possibly. I can't even imagine attempting. 0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:03.440 Yeah, I can't imagine. That would be crazy. It would 0:16:03.440 --> 0:16:05.359 be cool, it would. 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:07.280 It would be cool, But you know, I live with 0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:09.000 a constant fear that it won't work. 0:16:09.440 --> 0:16:12.840 Now it doesn't Like if you try to commit to 0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:17.040 a spin and it doesn't work. I Yeah, that'd be bad. 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.200 It's like you're dancing with your wife or something. 0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:24.040 It can only ruin my family. Yeah, is it like, 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:26.120 is it that you worry that you would fall down? 0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:29.240 I worry about it all. I worry that that I 0:16:29.280 --> 0:16:31.280 would fall down. I worry that I don't even make 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:34.040 it the full three sixty and and now I'm just 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:37.160 a dude who tried something and it failed, you know 0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:40.680 what I mean, Like there's just so much vulnerability and 0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:42.920 when people are counting on you, that. 0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:46.680 You how you feel about the dance? Yeah, like. 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:50.600 There's mother fuckers counting on me. 0:16:50.720 --> 0:16:55.480 Man, my baby needs me. 0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:59.280 Yeah, my baby just needs me to keep being consistent. 0:17:01.600 --> 0:17:05.600 I can't. And now and now I could go viral. 0:17:06.200 --> 0:17:11.840 Imagine imagine your father going viral because he tried to 0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.200 do a spin move and it didn't work at. 0:17:14.040 --> 0:17:15.600 The JFL after party. 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:21.840 Come on, and now everybody's like, bro, and my daughter's 0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:24.000 going to school and they're making fun of her because 0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:25.800 because father failed. 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:27.200 That's that's fair. 0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:29.280 People are counting on me. I can't risk it. 0:17:29.600 --> 0:17:32.919 No, I listen. I also am conservative on the dance floor, 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:35.760 you know what I mean. I'm a Biden in the streets. 0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:36.800 But I'm a trump in the. 0:17:36.760 --> 0:17:42.160 Ship there there that there was that run where where 0:17:42.160 --> 0:17:45.399 that those kids were doing that sideways moonwalk that like 0:17:45.520 --> 0:17:46.359 airwalk ship. 0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:48.320 Oh the usher usher is the first. 0:17:48.480 --> 0:17:52.240 Yeah. Well no, not that sideways moonwalk. That one I 0:17:52.320 --> 0:17:55.040 learned to do when I was in high school. I 0:17:55.040 --> 0:18:00.240 could still do that ship sidewalk moon walk walk. Yeah, 0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:03.720 I'm talking about that ship where where you're like they're 0:18:03.800 --> 0:18:05.360 like skipping sideways. 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:08.399 Oh, that one's fun. Yeah, I like that one. 0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:11.040 The amount of times I practiced that alone in my 0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:14.960 home and realize, like, I don't think I'm in a 0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:20.639 position to take this into a public space and be successful. Really, Yeah, 0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:21.600 because that. 0:18:21.480 --> 0:18:25.280 One seems easier than the sideways movement. It is not. 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:28.960 It's it's it's just so unnatural to the way that 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:32.760 I move that I don't think I've ever figured out 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:36.480 a way to make it not look like it's Yeah, 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:39.080 it's just you look gumpy and fucking weird or you 0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:43.480 look awesome, And I don't know that I ever looked awesome, 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:44.800 So I chose never. 0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:46.480 To bring it out. Yeah, I tried to learn the 0:18:46.520 --> 0:18:49.160 sneeze or m the same thing. 0:18:49.760 --> 0:18:54.240 Yeah, you just gotta you gotta realize, like these l's 0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:56.479 are not worth taking after a while. When I was 0:18:57.000 --> 0:18:59.840 when I was fifteen, if I didn't do a move good, 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:03.800 So you know what I mean? Like, what are the 0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:04.920 repercussions here? 0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:07.840 Wait? Can I ask you a series question? Yeah?

Okay, do you have footage? I hope not. 0:19:21.760 --> 0:19:26.400 I hope there's no lingering footage of any dance battles 0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.080 I was in. I pre you know, Thank god, I 0:19:29.119 --> 0:19:31.240 think we predated camera phones. 0:19:31.640 --> 0:19:32.760 What was the group called? 0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:36.159 No, I wasn't in like group dance battles.

Damn, 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:32.120 I don't think so. I don't think I ever had 0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:37.800 the flexibility for doing back bends and ship. But I 0:20:38.359 --> 0:20:46.359 ate his heart sometimes. Yeah, I'd eat his heart. I 0:20:46.560 --> 0:20:48.719 pop from the bottom and pass it up and go 0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:51.760 back down and snatch his heart and then put it 0:20:51.800 --> 0:20:52.480 in my own chest. 0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:58.400 And wow, you're a wild guy. 0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:00.359 Na I lived a life man. 0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:02.800 Yeah, that's very interesting.

If you guys could, let's see if I'm 0:21:15.359 --> 0:21:19.320 hoping we could find someone who battled you. If you 0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:25.480 guys know Dom y'all and he's in the Chicago Land area. 0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:28.040 I don't think he left anyway. 0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:31.480 Please, we gotta get him on.

But yeah, I think to the larger 0:21:50.480 --> 0:21:55.359 question at hand, I fear the evil spirits enough that 0:21:55.480 --> 0:21:59.160 I am willing to cut myself off from certain activities. 0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:03.640 And I recognize that if you are a a stringent 0:22:04.200 --> 0:22:07.679 God fearing woman so much so that you're willing to 0:22:07.800 --> 0:22:12.680 join the Jehovah's witnesses later in life, then you probably 0:22:13.160 --> 0:22:16.560 are afraid of a lot of things that seem vaguely spiritual, 0:22:16.680 --> 0:22:23.840 I e. Yoga and poses and whatnot. Beads, beads, sure, yeah, 0:22:24.359 --> 0:22:27.040 white women with sage.
