Speaker 1: It has been a tumultuous week. We're gonna get to
Speaker 1: what's happening, but let me tell you on my personal note.
Speaker 1: I'm home from New York City. I went to New York.
Speaker 1: I did the Breakfast Club on Monday and Tuesday. I
Speaker 1: had a pretty decent time. I had a really good time, actually,
Speaker 1: and I was supposed to do Yonkers this weekend. I
Speaker 1: want to apologize to all of them. Give my person
Speaker 1: over it, baby. I want to apologize to my fans
Speaker 1: for me not making it. There was some personal family
Speaker 1: emergency and I had to come home. I so apologize,
Speaker 1: and I think that the guy that should refund you
Speaker 1: guys all your money. I'm hoping he did. I spoke
Speaker 1: with him and he said he would. But outside of that,
Speaker 1: I had amazing time in New York. Coco was there
Speaker 1: with me. The Breakfast Club was what it is always
Speaker 1: was a good time, and I am home. My video
Speaker 1: drops this Tuesday with Maci Gray called cop Killer. Y'all
Speaker 1: gonna be excited to see that I killed the police officer,
Speaker 1: not for real, you know, for play. Well look, look,
Speaker 1: well no, I'm just joking. But I'm home and we
Speaker 1: are going to have such a good show today because
Speaker 1: my girl is here. One of my flamus has been
Speaker 1: riding with me from day one, the one that only
Speaker 1: miss Bobby Cliff and Hi.
Speaker 3: Bobby high Flame.
Speaker 1: Happy Saturday Today, Happy Sunday. How are you too, Twins?
Speaker 3: I am terrific. It was gorgeous, seventy eight degrees here
Speaker 3: in Boston, sunny, cool breeze, a real gorgeous spring day.
Speaker 3: It's happy to be anything but happy. It's hard to
Speaker 3: be anything but happy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and well in the times that we live in,
Speaker 1: and you better find happy is whatever you can. Bobby Christmas,
Speaker 1: it's the truth. I'm so proud of my I said.
Speaker 1: Let me tell y'all. I got my early birthday present
Speaker 1: Bobby and Aaron. So when I had to come home
Speaker 1: early on Thursday, I had to change my ticket on
Speaker 1: Delta and I was waiting until my birthday to a
Speaker 1: platform an American Express card because I was waiting to
Speaker 1: cross the thrill of seven hundred threshold. I was two
Speaker 1: points away. So when I was changing the ticket and
Speaker 1: they's like, why don't you just apply for Cristic, I'm like,
Speaker 1: oh no, no, no, I'm waiting until my birthday because
Speaker 1: I didn't want to get turned down. She said, I'm
Speaker 1: looking at your history here, you should do it. I
Speaker 1: said no, I don't want to be selling told no.
Speaker 1: So she convinced me to do it. I was approved
Speaker 1: in two seconds for an American Spress card. Girl, I
Speaker 1: almost jump out the midler. Now, let me tell you
Speaker 1: why it is so important to me, because since I
Speaker 1: was twenty two, I wanted an American Spress card, but I
Speaker 1: ain't do right by my credit. Now I do, and
Speaker 1: so I'm grateful to have one. It just took me
Speaker 1: a long time to get it, but I haven't.
Speaker 3: Don't leave home with that.
Speaker 1: And it's a really nice limit, very good. So I
Speaker 1: got my early birthday pras.
Speaker 3: Can you can you finance on American Express or is
Speaker 3: does actually be paid off at the end of the month.
Speaker 1: Well, the one you get from Delfta you can finance
Speaker 1: was the other one. But I got the hard car, Bobby,
Speaker 1: I got the steal card.
Speaker 3: Oh nice. I was just gonna say, it's a nice limit.
Speaker 3: Don't get crazy with it if you have to pay
Speaker 3: it off at the end of the month.
Speaker 1: Oh, I'm not gonna even I'm not gonna touch this
Speaker 1: car for nothing. My daughter already saw it. She was like,
Speaker 1: can we go shopping? And I said, who's gonna pay
Speaker 1: for it? Look, I got the hard car.
Speaker 3: Sorry, Bobby, Ah, congrats.
Speaker 1: I'm paying my bills on time. So let's get past
Speaker 1: all of that. Well, let me start right here, because
Speaker 1: we are going to get into all the mass shootings
Speaker 1: that's happening. But I just need to start right here.
Speaker 1: I did an interview with brother Reza Islam, who was
Speaker 1: also a guest here on Laughline a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 1: and in the interview, he asked me, should women compete
Speaker 1: in sports to transform and be allowed to compete in
Speaker 1: forts against biological women. My answer was absolutely not. I
Speaker 1: stood on the answer and I stand by that answer now.
Speaker 1: The reason I'm saying that is because with the special needs,
Speaker 1: when they wanted to compete in the Olympics, they created
Speaker 1: the special needs of them. With paraplegics, they created Olympics
Speaker 1: for paraplegics who have lost limbs or something in the
Speaker 1: military or through life. The women that wanted to play
Speaker 1: professional basketball when they could not play in the NBA,
Speaker 1: they created a WNBA. They can create a lane for
Speaker 1: trans athletes. It might start small, but it will get bigger.
Speaker 1: That's what happens. That's what happens to a penis that
Speaker 1: starts small. Your job is to get it bigger. Ask
Speaker 1: me how I know anyway, a video of a tan,
Speaker 1: a young trans a person who said they identify as trends.
Speaker 1: I'm saying what they say because looking at the video,
Speaker 1: it's clearly a teenage boy who says he's identify as
Speaker 1: as trans fighting two biological teenage girls. He's at least
Speaker 1: two feet taller than both of them, and he beat
Speaker 1: both these girls up. Again, I say that we are
Speaker 1: physically stronger, we are harder to handle because we still
Speaker 1: are men, and this will be the face that they
Speaker 1: will use. A video right there will be what they
Speaker 1: will use to say. This is why trans athletes should
Speaker 1: not compete against female athletes. Am I knocking the video?
Speaker 1: Not at all. I'm glad somebody recorded it because I
Speaker 1: do not want trans athletes to compete against biological female athletes,
Speaker 1: or I don't want transmitian athletes to compete against biological
Speaker 1: male athletes. I think Elaine should be created for all
Speaker 1: trans athletes. That is my take on it. You don't
Speaker 1: have to like it, neither do you have to agree
Speaker 1: with the listeners. That is how I feel, and I
Speaker 1: was raised on boys that are not supposed to beat
Speaker 1: up on girls, But god damn it, what are y'all
Speaker 1: giving them a butter pass to beat up on girls
Speaker 1: because if y'all change the rules, I forgot to get
Speaker 1: the memo.
Speaker 4: Do you feel I know that we've seen.
Speaker 3: What we've seen recently coming out is that they were
Speaker 3: more geared towards trans women competing with other women more
Speaker 3: than trans men with men. So they were they I
Speaker 3: think they were going to let the trans men compete
Speaker 3: with men if they wanted, If you know, that's.
Speaker 4: That's the way they were looking. No, because they don't know.
Speaker 1: If you don't know, if you're not gonna do.
Speaker 4: You say it's all or nothing. That's that is where
Speaker 4: I was going. Yes, that's where it.
Speaker 1: So either they're going to be able to do it
Speaker 1: or they're not going You cannot pick and choose. It's
Speaker 1: still not fair. It's not a fair advantage to the
Speaker 1: transmi because the biological meaning the argument is still they're
Speaker 1: going to still be stronger.
Speaker 3: Well, absolutely, but no, I wasn't sure if that's where
Speaker 3: you were going, because they you know, the trans men
Speaker 3: don't have the testosterone, they don't have the aggression, and
Speaker 3: I think that's why they were allowing them to and
Speaker 3: they could get by the biological men.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's not to say that some of these women,
Speaker 1: these trans these trans means aren't strong as biological means.
Speaker 1: Some of these male athletes see transmit athletes be strong
Speaker 1: as a bull. But if you're not going to do
Speaker 1: it for the women, you cannot do it for the mean.
Speaker 1: Just create what I wanted to That's what it is.
Speaker 1: So yeah, and I think that that video was for
Speaker 1: ponderous And they said I was watching some of the
Speaker 1: reports from the news and from some of the students
Speaker 1: that went to the school. I was looking on seeing
Speaker 1: it in some other news publications, and they were saying
Speaker 1: that the trans the person who identified a trands because
Speaker 1: I'm not going to call that young person try they
Speaker 1: identified as trains because they weren't trans. Was going in
Speaker 1: the bathroom and exposing the junk and walking around exposing
Speaker 1: themselves to these young girls. I have daughters. Those girls.
Speaker 1: Look about my youngest daughter age, she's in high school,
Speaker 1: she's sixteen. I don't want my daughter exposed to that.
Speaker 1: Not the Internet. I'm sure they haven't seen it all,
Speaker 1: but I still don't want them going to the locker
Speaker 1: room and anything could happen. And with the way things
Speaker 1: have flipped with prison. Anybody can identify it in jail now, hell,
Speaker 1: Eric and put our producer who looks clearly like a
Speaker 1: very handsome man. But he could throw a wig on
Speaker 1: and a fingernail and say, oh, I identify as Trands
Speaker 1: and they put him in prison with women. He can
Speaker 1: get all the kuchie. He won't. No, this is where
Speaker 1: we have pushed this. This is what we have pushed
Speaker 1: it to. It is to a point of no return.
Speaker 1: But it's at a breaking point, and it's not a
Speaker 1: good breaking point for us, So please be careful and
Speaker 1: please be cautious. I didn't agree with that, and I
Speaker 1: still don't agree with that, and I will stand by that.
Speaker 1: And I get a lot of backlass trouble, but y'all
Speaker 1: know I don't care. Okay, Bobby, where are we going next?
Speaker 1: Because that's nothing for me.
Speaker 4: I appreciate, I thank you. I appreciate that.
Speaker 3: I do feel it's important, especially for teenagers to have
Speaker 3: some sort of lane to compete. They need to be hurt,
Speaker 3: feel like they're heard and whatnot. So and I agree,
Speaker 3: I mean, there's there should be something for them. So
Speaker 3: we're going to have to We're going to have to
Speaker 3: figure out. What that out?
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 1: The sadness of the world. What's the sadness of the world, Bobby, Yes, what.
Speaker 3: Is the sadness of There's like a million things right
Speaker 3: now that are sad in the world. One of the
Speaker 3: couple of our topics. You just just were talking about
Speaker 3: being in New York. I don't know if you want
Speaker 3: to talk about the New York subway shooting, if you
Speaker 3: want to stay on New York and move from there.
Speaker 1: But yeah, let's go to New York. So when I
Speaker 1: was in New York, and so here's the I caught
Speaker 1: the train. We were on live when I caught the train.
Speaker 1: I caught the train online the subway because I wanted
Speaker 1: to have a subway experience while I was in New York.
Speaker 1: Fortunately it was We went on the subject on the
Speaker 1: subway the day that this accidental incident happened. But there
Speaker 1: was a guy. He was a street performer. His name
Speaker 1: is Neely. What's his name, Buddy, It.
Speaker 3: Is Jordan Neely. He was thirty years old.
Speaker 1: And he was a Michael Jackson impersonator. He worked to
Speaker 1: train the subway system for years as a street performer.
Speaker 1: He was dynamic. He suffered from some mental illness issues,
Speaker 1: but here lately they have gotten a little aggressive. So
Speaker 1: apparently he was on the subway train and he said
Speaker 1: They say he was complaining that he was hungry. I
Speaker 1: don't know if he was getting up in people's faces.
Speaker 1: We don't know a lot of the details. But what
Speaker 1: we do know that we saw was a guy who
Speaker 1: was a marine. He was an ex marine, and he
Speaker 1: put mcneelie in a choke He put Neely in the
Speaker 1: choke hold for four minutes and killed him. He died
Speaker 1: from being in a choke hol once he got to
Speaker 1: the hospital. I do think that it was too long.
Speaker 1: He is an ex marine. Neely was very small. The
Speaker 1: marine who was a white guy. Neelie was black. The
Speaker 1: marine who's a white guy looked buff. He looked very
Speaker 1: marine ish. You know, if you think of a marine,
Speaker 1: you think of him and cut it and shave and
Speaker 1: all that, and he looked like that. I think that
Speaker 1: it was the pressure was too long and too strong.
Speaker 1: There were people there trying to calm it down, but
Speaker 1: we were not there. We don't know all the situation.
Speaker 1: We don't know the capacity of how aggressive it was
Speaker 1: or the energy that was on the train. So I
Speaker 1: don't want to say that it was racially motivated. But
Speaker 1: didn't we just see this picture, didn't We just watched
Speaker 1: this movie with George Floyd. It's the only difference when
Speaker 1: one was a police officer and now one is an
Speaker 1: ex marine Bobby, you know, and I don't want to
Speaker 1: get my I'm black. Bobby is clearly a white woman.
Speaker 1: This was a white man and a black man. I
Speaker 1: don't want to just jump in and say it was
Speaker 1: all racially motivated. We don't know the aggression of it.
Speaker 1: But I'm waiting for it to unfold and stay with
Speaker 1: tune to us here, so we'll give you more of
Speaker 1: the story as we found out. That's my perspective. Now
Speaker 1: we're gonna let Bobby give her Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think I want to just jump on what you
Speaker 3: had said. I do think that we need to. The
Speaker 3: investigation is still going on. We know that the people
Speaker 3: who immediately came forward, they already had their statements along
Speaker 3: with the along with sergeant Penny. I don't what do
Speaker 3: you want to call him sergeant Penny because he's retired
Speaker 3: and he was twenty four years old. They let him
Speaker 3: go based on what his statement is and what the
Speaker 3: statements of the other people and whatever they could see
Speaker 3: inside the train. See, we were only seeing what somebody
Speaker 3: actually filmed. We're not seeing the trained cameras. I don't
Speaker 3: feel that this is in my opinion, I don't from
Speaker 3: what I see so far, I don't feel like it
Speaker 3: was racially motivated. If there was any prejudice at all,
Speaker 3: I think it might have been somebody that was homeless
Speaker 3: and or somebody that had some pretty heavy mental health issues.
Speaker 3: I believe they said he was schizophrenic. I think it's
Speaker 3: completely unfortunate. I don't know, especially in today's environment. The
Speaker 3: last time I was on FLAM and I were talking
Speaker 3: about how scary as you can't pull in somebody's driveway
Speaker 3: or ring a wrong bell or I don't know. If
Speaker 3: I was sitting on the train, if I don't have
Speaker 3: mister Penny's expertise to do a choke hold, I wouldn't
Speaker 3: even know how to try to keep somebody under and
Speaker 3: under wraps. But I you know, I don't know how
Speaker 3: I would have felt. We do know, of course, the
Speaker 3: people on the train at that time wouldn't wouldn't have
Speaker 3: known this, But he has been arrested. Mister Neely forty
Speaker 3: three times for a lot of petty any stuff like
Speaker 3: jumping the turnstile, theft. We know that he also but
Speaker 3: also assaults. I just wanted to sorry, let me finish
Speaker 3: that thought he was he was in three times specifically
Speaker 3: on women that he assaulted women. He got onto the
Speaker 3: train screaming that he didn't care if he died or
Speaker 3: if he went to jail. Probably in his circumstance, the
Speaker 3: poor guy, he probably would have been better off and
Speaker 3: I had a place, because he had no food, he
Speaker 3: was hungry, he was sick of having nothing. He's also
Speaker 3: nobody would know this on the train either. But he
Speaker 3: was also somebody that lost his mother as a teenager
Speaker 3: via murder from her boyfriend who actually stuffed her into
Speaker 3: a suitcase and then jumped her into New Jersey, and
Speaker 3: that had a terrific impact. I don't know if he
Speaker 3: had some sort of break at that point and that's
Speaker 3: where his mental health issues started. It's super just it's
Speaker 3: a super super sad thing.
Speaker 1: I think I don't want to say, and I want
Speaker 1: to say this body since you brought that up, maybe
Speaker 1: because I don't know, but you know, with the assault charges,
Speaker 1: because I hate when they go into the victim's past
Speaker 1: to bring up everything that the victim has done. Right,
Speaker 1: go to the culprit, whatever the case may be. This
Speaker 1: other guy still murdered him, he still choked him to death.
Speaker 1: It's still a homicide. Yeah, whether or not they want
Speaker 1: to bring up his past. And you know, and I'm
Speaker 1: not saying that he did not accost a woman. He
Speaker 1: did not touch a woman inappropriately, but it's been so
Speaker 1: many false accusations now with women saying that somebody touched
Speaker 1: them inappropriately. Now a lot of times they using that, Yes,
Speaker 1: that's just a ploy or attack it. I don't know,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to say that. And I hate
Speaker 1: that this man was going through the mental illness and
Speaker 1: I didn't even know about him his mother like that.
Speaker 1: So it's so many different components and so many different
Speaker 1: factors that could have, like you said, made him more
Speaker 1: off the rail that day. I don't think he deserved
Speaker 1: to be murdered or killed that way. I hate him.
Speaker 1: He was being aggressive on the train, and I'm hoping
Speaker 1: that justice is when they find out, when they get
Speaker 1: to the root of whatever the whole problem is, that
Speaker 1: justice is proper. So, yeah, we don't do on that
Speaker 1: because I don't. I don't want to. I don't want
Speaker 1: to ride that, Bobby, because I'm telling you parssing me
Speaker 1: feelings curtain kind of way, and other parts of me don't.
Speaker 1: But because I don't know, I can't say.
Speaker 3: That's how I feel. I can only report the facts
Speaker 3: that I've been able to research, but I can't tell you.
Speaker 3: And I wasn't there and I couldn't feel vibe, and
Speaker 3: I don't, you know, I just don't know. I know
Speaker 3: that we have a huge, huge mental health crisis in
Speaker 3: the United States right now, and uh, we've got to
Speaker 3: do something about it. Because my other feeling is that
Speaker 3: I've already mentioned that I don't feel like this. This
Speaker 3: man should have been riding the train. You know, he
Speaker 3: was too ill. He should have been getting services somewhere
Speaker 3: or had medication. I don't know if he willingly did
Speaker 3: not take his meds. A lot of mental mentally ill
Speaker 3: people don't. But it could be that he wanted to
Speaker 3: take them, but he didn't have the money to take them.
Speaker 3: If he didn't have money, he certainly didn't have money
Speaker 3: for drugs.
Speaker 1: I don't know, because you know, you can get some
Speaker 1: of these mental health medications you can get for free.
Speaker 1: But here's the problem. Side effect. But it's the side effect.
Speaker 3: It's true.
Speaker 4: They don't like it, Yeah.
Speaker 1: They don't. They don't like the loopiness or they don't
Speaker 1: like the distortion in their mind.
Speaker 3: You don't feel sharped, you don't feel Yeah.
Speaker 1: Sometimes libido, Yeah, sometimes the kids are libido. Sometimes it
Speaker 1: makes you depressed. You know, medication. Different medications have different
Speaker 1: sideffects some people. So maybe he had taken it and
Speaker 1: he didn't like the way madhim said we don't know,
Speaker 1: and we went we don't know, but God bless and
Speaker 1: hopefully they'll get to the bottom of it.
Speaker 3: Also, another mental health issue really was the Allen, Texas
Speaker 3: mass shooting.
Speaker 1: And and Georgia. Yeah, well, first of all, May is mental
Speaker 1: health mental health Awareness month. And good guy or they
Speaker 1: showing up in May. Jesus the man in the hospital
Speaker 1: and Georgia went up in there. He was trying to
Speaker 1: get treatment. He couldn't get treated me, he couldn't get services.
Speaker 1: He came back with a gun and shot the place up.
Speaker 3: That that was May third.
Speaker 1: He only killed one, but he injured three others. They
Speaker 1: caught him uninjured. He's not dead, but it's so much
Speaker 1: and then the other guy, who's the other one body
Speaker 1: the mentalation.
Speaker 4: We had, the one we have.
Speaker 3: So this is even so I pulled up all the
Speaker 3: mass shootings that have been going on. I'm only looking
Speaker 3: at May. That's all I'm looking at. I'm not looking
Speaker 3: at before or after. It's one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen,
Speaker 3: fourteen mass shootings in the month of May alone.
Speaker 1: So the one that we were.
Speaker 3: Going to, right, I mean, can you so? Alan, Texas
Speaker 3: was the other one that they had been showing clips
Speaker 3: about a man who came into the Allen Premium Malls.
Speaker 3: It's a mall that has one hundred and twenty stores
Speaker 3: in it and just opened up outside one of the
Speaker 3: one of the entrances. Thank god he didn't get inside
Speaker 3: the mall because there might have been more shoppers inside
Speaker 3: versus out. The clip shows him just pulling up almost
Speaker 3: like he's coming through just the parking space area, putting
Speaker 3: it in park, getting out, and in shooting. And thank
Speaker 3: god that there was a police officer that was there
Speaker 3: in a different assignment. I don't know if he was
Speaker 3: just doing you know, like they make a few extra
Speaker 3: bucks and they do traffic or something or you know,
Speaker 3: when they're putting filling in potholes.
Speaker 4: But he heard the.
Speaker 3: Shots and ran towards the shots neutralized the man. Otherwise
Speaker 3: it could have been there could have been a lot
Speaker 3: more shootings. He had an AR fifteen.
Speaker 4: Is that what the AR fifteen?
Speaker 1: So that is there, that is their web, that seems
Speaker 1: to be their weapon of choice, the one that they
Speaker 1: will not stop selling. And that is the same weapon
Speaker 1: that they keep using around the country to kill, kill kill.
Speaker 1: Not only is it around this country, but his crossover
Speaker 1: that we spoke about earlier to other countries, because now
Speaker 1: the copycat effect is happening in other countries which they
Speaker 1: didn't even have mass shootings some of these other foreign kinds.
Speaker 1: I know, it's crazy. They haven't had mass shootings since
Speaker 1: maybe two thousand.
Speaker 3: Well because they don't have guns, right like everybody. The
Speaker 3: people don't realize. They wonder why the United States, Like so,
Speaker 3: my family's from Ireland. You can't get on the gun Island.
Speaker 3: Only the detectives, not even the regular cops that they
Speaker 3: call Bobby's Strangely enough, they don't have guns, you know,
Speaker 3: they have nightsticks and they have other ways to neutralize
Speaker 3: probably tasers. Now. Back when I used to go, they
Speaker 3: didn't have a lot. But it was funny, I ab it.
Speaker 3: He's the governor was on and I didn't hear him
Speaker 3: say anything about how he was going to stop the violence.
Speaker 3: He wants to keep guns out of criminal's hands. Not
Speaker 3: in any of these one hundred and ninety nine shootings
Speaker 3: since the beginning of the year, was there a criminal
Speaker 3: involved that I could see or that they mentioned or
Speaker 3: that they clarified for us. And he's blaming it on
Speaker 3: mental health. But he's also probably one of the ones,
Speaker 3: or his party certainly is that is shooting President Biden's
Speaker 3: tuition reimbursement down. And I say that because if we
Speaker 3: can't get people to willingly go into these fields and
Speaker 3: be mental health providers, we're going to have to pay
Speaker 3: for their school. We're gonna have to make it easy
Speaker 3: so they want to go in. They make the least
Speaker 3: amount of money, they can't be left with, you know,
Speaker 3: a couple hundred thousand and student loans and they're only
Speaker 3: making fifty thousand a year.
Speaker 4: You know, it's funny. It's it's we the people we
Speaker 4: value the least or that are most.
Speaker 3: Important jobs, These essential workers get paid the least.
Speaker 1: It's absolutely Wait a minute, but we have had one
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety nine mass shooting, hundred shootings and undy
Speaker 1: seven days. Wow wow.
Speaker 3: And I looked, nineteen of them were in Texas.
Speaker 1: So you're at Grey Avid and and and and Florida,
Speaker 1: Texas and Florida. I love.
Speaker 3: Actually I'm looking at Florida, not a whole lot of
Speaker 3: There's been a couple in Florida, but not as many
Speaker 3: as I thought there would be.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm about the laws and Texas in Florida.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, they're all very states, right yeah, open
Speaker 4: carries so they.
Speaker 1: Don't have to do it is for ponderans and it
Speaker 1: is out of control. And until they change these laws,
Speaker 1: especially with these air fifteens, because these air fifteens are
Speaker 1: such crazy weapons and just such damage to the body.
Speaker 1: But they're making so much money and people like Majorie
Speaker 1: Taylor Green and you know, and I already keep pushing
Speaker 1: thesegena's pushing the pushing, the pushing it as if they
Speaker 1: get the best. Interesting. I wonder what they have chicks
Speaker 1: look like, because I know they giving them chicks on
Speaker 1: the personal to pay to do free advertisements for.
Speaker 3: If I'm sure, they're all the lobbyists and in their pockets,
Speaker 3: but I don't We've got to We've got to do
Speaker 3: something with the mental health. We also have to do
Speaker 3: something with these assault weapons. You know, if we want
Speaker 3: to get if we want to get guns under control.
Speaker 3: That's nobody's talking about that or things that would be acceptable.
Speaker 3: So I don't want to take guns away from anybody.
Speaker 3: I think you've got the right to carry on them.
Speaker 3: But I just I don't want it to just become
Speaker 3: you know, opening the trunk of your car and people
Speaker 3: just dig it in. I mean, we have to do
Speaker 3: some sort of background checks.
Speaker 1: I think it's too late.
Speaker 3: I think we can do something for the kids. So
Speaker 3: maybe too late for you and me playing, but what
Speaker 3: about like the grandchildren, Like can we fix it by them?
Speaker 1: Well when in certain states like Florida and Texas that
Speaker 1: we talked about earlier, they give their kids that is
Speaker 1: write a passage years old, Yeah they don't. They absolutely do.
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's it's absolutely crazy to me. But
Speaker 1: we're going to do something. We're going to do something.
Speaker 3: And if we can start with mental health and taking
Speaker 3: the assault wife weapons, if just do those two pieces,
Speaker 3: it would be, it would be wonderful and getting rid
Speaker 3: of the stigma. So like I like any time that
Speaker 3: that he can. I've seen Charlemagne on the Breakfast Club
Speaker 3: with you there too. We will talk about his struggles
Speaker 3: in his lifetime about mental health and how important it
Speaker 3: is to have a therapist and blah blah blah. So
Speaker 3: we need more people like that that people look up
Speaker 3: to to.
Speaker 1: I think when we first started doing coffee time that
Speaker 1: when the pandemic first hit, I said that when this
Speaker 1: was all over, the pandemic was all over, that the
Speaker 1: the whole country need to just put out couches and
Speaker 1: a loud speaker. I think you need to lay on
Speaker 1: the couch and get some therapy, because it's the way
Speaker 1: it's the times that we're living in. It is so scary, it.
Speaker 3: Is and it's stressful, and it's you know, and in
Speaker 3: kids social media is you and I were blessed that
Speaker 3: we didn't have any of this when we were growing up,
Speaker 3: but you know, competition and whatnot is so is so stiff.
Speaker 3: You know, I wish guidance counselors they used to serve
Speaker 3: a role. It wasn't just to get you into a school.
Speaker 3: Years ago it was they acted as social workers, and
Speaker 3: I wish we could get back to something like that
Speaker 3: or make it so that you had social workers that
Speaker 3: were open to the kids that were in the school
Speaker 3: and they felt comfortable enough to go. But you can't
Speaker 3: even keep teachers without having thirty kids in a class.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty key is no assistant. It's scary, Bobby, It's
Speaker 1: very scary. All it takes is too disruptive. Take is
Speaker 1: too disruptive to true. And I said about I'm honestly
Speaker 1: thinking about taking my daughter out of school and have
Speaker 1: homeschooling her to get out of high school. It's just
Speaker 1: getting too scary, and I don't even feel like she's
Speaker 1: getting the education that we got. To be honest, I
Speaker 1: just don't. I think that it's so much worry and
Speaker 1: fear in the school system now that you have the
Speaker 1: teachers can't even consciously just teaching these kids because it's
Speaker 1: getting worse because the fear you're worried about who's bringing
Speaker 1: in a gun or who has a weapon, And bullying
Speaker 1: is so out of control. Bullying, bullying. It is definitely
Speaker 1: not bullying that I remember. I remember being bullied. I
Speaker 1: didn't get my ass with a couple of times. I
Speaker 1: wore plenty of asses too, but I never thought I
Speaker 1: was gonna get killed. And the bullying now means you
Speaker 1: might get killed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. Well, all I can say is, if
Speaker 3: you start to homeschool, you're going to need the mental health.
Speaker 3: You better get it. You better get yourself.
Speaker 1: I would get a tutor. I wouldn't. I would get
Speaker 1: a tutor. She's too difficult.
Speaker 3: Because I'm like, oh my god, I'd be losing my mind.
Speaker 1: But at least I would have a different feel because
Speaker 1: I'm always afraid. If I get an email from the
Speaker 1: school or a text from the school, you know is
Speaker 1: they're shooting and moov because you cannot be accountable for
Speaker 1: somebody else's kid, and I hate that. Sometimes we blame
Speaker 1: the parents, but teenagers keep a lot of a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff internally. They don't share with the adults. They
Speaker 1: share with other teenagers, or they shared with social media.
Speaker 1: They shared publicly with the world on social media, thinking
Speaker 1: they talking to one or two of their friends, not
Speaker 1: realizing that you're talking to everybody's following you on your
Speaker 1: page or whoever decides to share with. It is just
Speaker 1: a scary time, and it is beyond repair, beyond control.
Speaker 1: I do want to give a shout out to the
Speaker 1: telethon that's having drag It is not dangerous. They having
Speaker 1: a big telethign tonight because drag shows are not dangerous. Again,
Speaker 1: I still stand with drag shows. I stand for drag shows.
Speaker 1: I do not stand for reading in the library to
Speaker 1: kids and inappropriate clothing. I don't care whether you trans, gay, straight, white, fat,
Speaker 1: black eye do.
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say yeah, I want everybody covered up.
Speaker 3: I don't want to plopping out. I don't know who
Speaker 3: you are or what you are.
Speaker 1: I don't care what you identify. Ask cover your head,
Speaker 1: that's what you identify.
Speaker 3: Ask cover I want to see us.
Speaker 1: I'll be showing your booty to my babies. I don't
Speaker 1: They ain't looking at my booty. They damn sure don't
Speaker 1: want to look at you. It's a good God, you know.
Speaker 1: But Bobby, it was just it's just it's I'm sadden.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry said this, but I am sadden because all
Speaker 1: the drama that's happening in the world with the mass shooting,
Speaker 1: so I can't I can't get past this. Hopefully I
Speaker 1: see that everybody talking about Biden and Trump and Trump
Speaker 1: and Biden. I'm hoping that Biden wingings again if we
Speaker 1: have no one else. I know a lot of people
Speaker 1: have been saying a whole bunch of negative things, but
Speaker 1: I still hope Biden wings. Y'all say negative things about
Speaker 1: Prince Charles too. He still got the crown. It took
Speaker 1: him eighty nine years, but he still got it.
Speaker 4: His mother held on to that until her giant breath.
Speaker 1: She was not trying to give up that crown to Charles,
Speaker 1: because I guess she figured and then then Camella got
Speaker 1: what she wanted. She is now the queen.
Speaker 4: I know, wasn't it I could have? I usually I
Speaker 4: like all that.
Speaker 3: Stuff because I like pageantry, but I just couldn't. I couldn't.
Speaker 3: I just couldn't bear her. And I know what she
Speaker 3: did was done thirty five years ago or whatever. We
Speaker 3: probably I should probably get over it, but I she's
Speaker 3: just like a big old horse face to me. I
Speaker 3: just caun't it over.
Speaker 4: She's I just I see her and she does the
Speaker 4: work and all that.
Speaker 3: I'm a grudg sholder from way back on Irish. What
Speaker 3: can I say?
Speaker 1: Listen, Camela stayed in her lane, stayed in her place,
Speaker 1: kept her mouth, she had kept her head low and
Speaker 1: get what she wanted. She got the ground, oh absolutely.
Speaker 3: I mean she wasn't getting it until two years ago
Speaker 3: or a year and a half ago. I think Elizabeth
Speaker 3: announced that if he should be Queen corn Corn sort,
Speaker 3: if he was, he became king, and maybe you'd have
Speaker 3: to because I don't know what could she say a
Speaker 3: princess if he's a king of the husband's king.
Speaker 4: You know, there's a lot of rules.
Speaker 1: I wonder how the thought, how the children feel that
Speaker 1: they knew that this woman had such a hand in
Speaker 1: the demise of their mother and I had death, oh
Speaker 1: per se.
Speaker 3: But you know the marriage too, she she picked her
Speaker 3: if you watch any of the stuff she because she
Speaker 3: was already married with kids and they had whatever relationship,
Speaker 3: supposedly it was just friends, and she picked her and
Speaker 3: knowing and then went right in and inserted herself into
Speaker 3: their marriage. You know, there was the three of them,
Speaker 3: as Diana said in an interview that you know, the
Speaker 3: con't be three people in a marriage. I saw the
Speaker 3: two of them, including Harry, and they said they were
Speaker 3: and they said it in a nice way. They said,
Speaker 3: if you anybody that spends more than you know. A
Speaker 3: half hour with them sees that they are literally were
Speaker 3: made for each other.
Speaker 4: You know, did it mean that they forgive for what
Speaker 4: happened with the mother?
Speaker 3: I don't think, you know, they didn't even put that on,
Speaker 3: but they said that, you know, they she makes him
Speaker 3: very happy, period.
Speaker 1: Poor poor poor Corlgees. I know after all that she
Speaker 1: came home to Elizabeth. I know she keeped the ship
Speaker 1: out of the dolls. I know them couryers keep the
Speaker 1: hell between Harry brings between Harry bringing the home of
Speaker 1: black woman, and and and child's bringing home old woman.
Speaker 3: Good god, hey, did she for the love of God,
Speaker 3: she's She's with her her second ex daughter in law.
Speaker 3: They're living with Sarah Ferguson.
Speaker 4: That's who got them. Can you imagine?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they telling her all the stories. They telling
Speaker 1: her all the stories. Bobby was beautiful. I'm with you, Bobby.
Speaker 1: I love all the pomp and circumstance of all the royals.
Speaker 1: I know the history of the royals. We know people
Speaker 1: got negative things to say about this, that and the third,
Speaker 1: But right now we were only talking about the Poma
Speaker 1: circumstance and the beauty of those jewels and crowns. And
Speaker 1: I know you say something about the jewels. Oh they
Speaker 1: stole the jewels? Did they steal them from you? Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: well they.
Speaker 3: Were given to them by and it's and it's way
Speaker 3: before them, you know, it's you think I got the
Speaker 3: royal family. They're all different countries come in. Like if
Speaker 3: they did their ancestry dot com and I did mine,
Speaker 3: I'm probably more English, even though I'm not English at all.
Speaker 3: You know, they're a little bit of German, they're a
Speaker 3: little bit this, they're but all those people brought stuff
Speaker 3: in because remember women weren't valued, so you had to
Speaker 3: give a dowry, and you had to give the jewels
Speaker 3: and you you know, one of the jewels if they
Speaker 3: came from wherever? Blood diamonds. Should they have given them back?
Speaker 3: I don't know, but right now they have them. This
Speaker 3: is the first time in history neither the queen or
Speaker 3: the king got new got new thrown, not thrown crowns.
Speaker 3: They used. They used existing crowns, which was good. You know,
Speaker 3: that's recycling at its best, which I sort of liked.
Speaker 3: I thought that was sort of cool. And you know,
Speaker 3: the people of England shouldn't have to pay for new crowns.
Speaker 3: That's bs when when you've got a vault full of
Speaker 3: them and everybody doesn't even get to wear them for
Speaker 3: more than ten minutes each.
Speaker 1: Well, I'm sure I'm glad Camella. I mean, Camilla got
Speaker 1: a chance to put hers on, because she already is
Speaker 1: about ten years older than Elizabeth.
Speaker 3: So yeah, oh she was. She didn't it didn't add
Speaker 3: to her though, didn't didn't give her any didn't give
Speaker 3: her any oomph.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: There's something about her that just and she was like
Speaker 3: scratching at the back. I'm like your calum, lady, keep
Speaker 3: your hands. If it's pulling your hair out. You've been imagined.
Speaker 3: You suck it up for beauty, you know, sitt in beauty.
Speaker 1: Beauty. Okay, first of all, beauty and Camella should not
Speaker 1: even be on the same page. Oh my god, thank
Speaker 1: you for getting I like the Harry when, I love her,
Speaker 1: I love her hair. When and I knew that Megan
Speaker 1: couldn't go, she had to be at home with the baby.
Speaker 1: Plus you know that we don't know what kind of
Speaker 1: blood is happening over there. Everybody want to say, well,
Speaker 1: it's disrespectful. No, you don't know what kind of situation
Speaker 1: she was going into.
Speaker 4: Oh, I wouldn't do it for that.
Speaker 3: If I could say anything, I would only say I
Speaker 3: think that it was an opportunity lost for exposure, for
Speaker 3: not of her children, for her children. It would have
Speaker 3: been wonderful in eighty years for her kids to look
Speaker 3: back and say, oh, that's what Grampy's you know, coronation,
Speaker 3: And here I was. I thought, you know, I thought
Speaker 3: that was an opportunity lost. But they have to make
Speaker 3: their own decisions. If they didn't feel safe or whatever,
Speaker 3: that that's on them. They really were going to celebrate
Speaker 3: the little going.
Speaker 1: In my head right now, Bobby, I can't remember one
Speaker 1: time I've ever seen a picture with Prince Charles holding
Speaker 1: Harry and Meghan's kids. I can't think of one picture
Speaker 1: I've ever seen.
Speaker 3: Or any I've seen him talking. He talks to them,
Speaker 3: I see them like that, but I've never seen.
Speaker 1: Him I saw the No I've seen him holding. I've
Speaker 1: seen him holding William's children.
Speaker 3: Oh have you. I've never seen them holding. I see
Speaker 3: him interacting with them, like he kind of gets down
Speaker 3: on their level, and I see that, but I've never
Speaker 3: seen holding Hey, flame, you know what we can't even
Speaker 3: be critical. He's probably met them twice, and you know, kids,
Speaker 3: you're not going to pass the kid off to a stranger.
Speaker 4: Well, you know, I don't. I don't.
Speaker 3: They haven't been over there all that long. They've been
Speaker 3: in the US, and they've done their kids. So I
Speaker 3: don't know how much how much exposure he's actually even had,
Speaker 3: So I could be critical from a lot of things,
Speaker 3: but I don't know.
Speaker 1: Well, congratulations, congratulations King Charles. You family got you found
Speaker 1: King Charles.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he waited to the very end.
Speaker 1: Because Elizabeth wasn't happening. I'm gonna tell you what. When
Speaker 1: we shook it up, Harry brought their sister home Baby
Speaker 1: because the Queen Elizabeth wasn't gone. She was on literally
Speaker 1: about three hundred. She was determined as to lead a
Speaker 1: crown to Charles. Harry brought their sister home. It shook
Speaker 1: the whole castle of baby. Oh my god, listen here.
Speaker 1: Thank you body for joining me today. Thank you. I
Speaker 1: got a lot of personal stuff going on, so I'm
Speaker 1: ladies and Geman. I don't feel like by this episode

Speaker 1: York was a roller coaster out of everything so, but
Speaker 1: we're home now. We gotta put it together. I have
Speaker 1: a new video that's dropping on Tuesday that I did
Speaker 1: with Macy Gray. It is called cop Killer. If you
Speaker 1: guys get a chance to listen to it, it'll be

Speaker 1: something like that. And this me and there, y'all wait
Speaker 1: till y'all see. Oh my god, just watch it. Please watch.
Speaker 1: It's called cop Killer.
Speaker 4: So it's a it's a music video.
Speaker 1: Yes, the song gets very catchy too, but it's very
Speaker 1: scandalous and it's very controversial. You know my middle name?
Speaker 1: And uh yeah, we just I just listen. We got
Speaker 1: some other projects coming up. I shut the Sizzereal for
Speaker 1: the new show. He she Weed's Red Carper review. We're
Speaker 1: gonna see how that goes. I am still up for
Speaker 1: the job at the Breakfast Club. We'll see how it goes.
Speaker 1: And I might be doing some things with Sheery nodded
Speaker 1: Sheerri Shepherd, since she had removed the couple of her producers.
Speaker 1: Oh and congratulations to Sheery Shepherd before Emmy nominations for
Speaker 1: Best Talk Show also to Jennifer her So we will
Speaker 1: see what's happening. Because here at Laugh and Learn Season three,
Speaker 1: we are never trying to get you to change your man.
Speaker 1: We are only trying to get you to use your
Speaker 1: bad because their mind is a terrible thing to waste.
Speaker 1: Don't waste your man, ladies and gentlemen. And if you
Speaker 1: feel like it's right, and everybody else feel like it's wrong,
Speaker 1: but you feel like it's right, you don't have to
Speaker 1: go along with everybody else. You got to do what's
Speaker 1: best for you.
Speaker 4: And they're right, Bobby, Absolutely, go with your gut.
Speaker 3: That's what we're told that as little kids, and we
Speaker 3: never do.
Speaker 1: If my gus said I want a jelly donut and
Speaker 1: not a glaze donut, then I'm getting my jelly donut.
Speaker 4: There you go.
Speaker 3: But no, absolutely go with your gut. And as Jan
Speaker 3: always says, keep your head in a swile. Pay attention.
Speaker 3: These are people that we're just going into a store
Speaker 3: for this latest shooting. So I'm going to pay attention
Speaker 3: to where you are.
Speaker 1: And I want to ask everyone America, everybody who's listening
Speaker 1: to the sound is but sounding me and Bobby's voice
Speaker 1: when you're out in public. I know you want to
Speaker 1: be careful. You or thinking you're going to the grocery store,
Speaker 1: you're going to church. Look around, Just just get your
Speaker 1: face out that phone. Look around and see who's around you,
Speaker 1: because you don't know what kind of days somebody else
Speaker 1: is having. If somebody looks strange, nine times out of ten,
Speaker 1: they are strange. And strange don't mean you're gonna go
Speaker 1: to the other side of the store. Strange now means
Speaker 1: that you might need to get the hell out the
Speaker 1: store or get out the establishment if they look a
Speaker 1: little crazy, because sometimes you really can see the spastic
Speaker 1: inst somebody's faces if you're looking for it. A lot
Speaker 1: of these have been just show up and just start shooting,
Speaker 1: so you don't the element of surprise gets you. But
Speaker 1: play attention, y'all. Look around. Look at why you get
Speaker 1: on a coat and it's ninety degrees outside. You know
Speaker 1: why they looking strange in the face. Pay attention to them.
Speaker 1: You could you could possibly save your own life. And
Speaker 1: if you're in the grocery store, run to the freezer.
Speaker 1: Jump in the freezer. Ain't gonna come to the frost,
Speaker 1: gonna freeze up. They don't even see you in there.
Speaker 1: You be cold as hell, but you'll be alive.
Speaker 3: And I'd say also, I think we don't have to
Speaker 3: go to every fight we're invited to. And I think
Speaker 3: a lot of people forget that if somebody irks you
Speaker 3: in a little way, you just let it go. You know,
Speaker 3: you don't have to you don't have to engage. And
Speaker 3: then sometimes people just need to be treated with a
Speaker 3: little respect and compassion.
Speaker 1: That's that's easy to said and done, though, Bible. Looking
Speaker 1: at the man in Texas, that guy last week who
Speaker 1: went the guy the man next door asked him to
Speaker 1: stop shooting his gun, and he went in the house
Speaker 1: and killed all the neighbors.
Speaker 3: I just can't even I just did that. I mean,
Speaker 3: it's absolutely absolutely crazy. But look where he came from
Speaker 3: and what he did for a living. You know, like
Speaker 3: that's somebody. Now, maybe they didn't know that though, the
Speaker 3: neighbors when they asked him to they wanted to put
Speaker 3: their baby.
Speaker 1: He is, didn't know, but he had been deported back
Speaker 1: out the country three or four times. He kept sneaking
Speaker 1: back in. Yeah, ridiculous, crazy, ridiculous. Bobby Clifford, thank you
