But if I if any of 207 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: my high school friends were here right now, they would laugh, 208 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: laugh down because I actually was not responsible. But I 209 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: was involved. And I don't know if I've told this 210 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: on the pod, but when I was eighteen years old, 211 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: I was getting back from a track meet. But when 212 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: you know the story, Yes, so I was getting back 213 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 1: from a track meet an invitation. It was a Saturday 214 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 1: and I was getting into my car. I turned on 215 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 1: the radio, made a right hand turn out out onto 216 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: the road from my high school, and a kid on 217 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,439 Speaker 1: a bike flew out in front of me and rolled 218 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: up onto my window and rolled back down. Immediately I stopped. 219 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 1: It was like it was like a tapping, but it 220 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 1: was truly crazy and I had the right of way 221 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: at everything. This kid flew out into the street like 222 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: a true bad at hell. And then I get out 223 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: of the car panicked. My car is on top of 224 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: his bike and he had screwed like he had scurried 225 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: to the side. But I'm telling you, I was like, 226 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 1: are you okay? And he was he had He was 227 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 1: like holding his knee. He moves his hands out of 228 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: his knee, his knees fucked up. And then the police 229 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: came out. Girl, no, I fully hit. I fully hit 230 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: a kid. And then this was in two eight, bitch, 231 00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 1: But it wasn't my fault. The kid was literally driving 232 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: koko bananas, flew out into the middle of the road. 233 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: And then the people that like were around me were 234 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 1: like it was a total accident. He had a green 235 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: light everything, etcetera, etcetera, and the kid like he wasn't 236 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 1: wearing a helmet or anything not that, like I hel well, 237 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 1: you should be wearing a helmet. But not to blame 238 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: on him, but was just truly a freak moment. That's 239 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: really what I'm here to do, is to just make 240 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: sure that this kid knows that it was his fault. 241 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: You got ten miles per hour away from being a 242 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: Laura Bush to say, Brandy Noville and also Caitlyn Jenner. 243 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: Let's not forget I was going to Brandy and and 244 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: Caitlin might have been on the same freeway in l A. 245 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 1: Their their situations. I feel like a PC for both 246 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: of them, and I might have made that up. I 247 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: think at least one of them was. I mean both 248 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: of those cases that was vehicular man slaughter. Yeah, I 249 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: would hate to be I don't know that I'd be 250 00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 1: okay with self. It's not really their fault, right, but 251 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: like that is a night, well, yeah, you have to 252 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: live with that. The best part was that I logged 253 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: onto Facebook after it happened like that night, and everyone 254 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: was like um commenting on his on his Facebook, like hey, 255 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: hope you're okay, Hope you're okay, and so almost like 256 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: what happened? And the kid put on his Facebook status 257 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: Matt Rodgers hit me with his car, And that's how 258 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: you know that Matt was you know a name. I 259 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 1: was the high school campus celebrity because I did the 260 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: morning announcements. I did the morning announcement. This is King, 261 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: this is King, that's this is King. But this is 262 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,079 Speaker 1: also a trend I found among people in our little circles, 263 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: like a lot of comedians and like truly like two 264 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: thirds of the cast at work, like we're all morning 265 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: announcements people.

I was like, 268 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: have a better day than Britney Spears did yesterday. And 269 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: it was mortifying and I regret it. And that's my 270 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: equivalent of vegular manslaughter. Emotionally, I fully pancaked Britney Spears 271 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 1: that day. I will never forgive myself. Did you hear 272 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: about it from the other students, Well, they were like 273 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: kind fell and that was so funny that you mentioned 274 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: like back then, like no one like a refined sense 275 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: of humors that they were just like you referenced a 276 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: thing and that's funny, like it was the beginning of 277 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: meme culture and what you did that day. I ran 278 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: for class president and one of my slogans over the 279 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: morning announcements was, whoever said progress was a slow process 280 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: wasn't talking about me, king, But let me tell you something. 281 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: My teacher, Mr. Spiby, my government teacher, was like, what 282 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 1: was that.

Mrs. 291 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: I remember needing to shake it up a little bit 292 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: because they had us on a really like a like 293 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: almost like a script, and I would just kind of 294 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: throw my little ad libs in there, and like I 295 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: remember the the woman who worked in the main office Ms. 296 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: Lucas would always kind of give me like an a 297 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: raised eyebrow, and I remember she would never let me 298 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: say the Pledge of allegiance because quote unquote she liked 299 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: to do it. Um, so that's what we're dealing with here. 300 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: One day, as my sign off, I said, instead of like, 301 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: have a great day, I said thanks, and have an 302 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 1: earth shattering day.

I 411 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: was said to the principal's office quite a bit.

Um and it. I 660 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: remember being like I had like a weird one the 661 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 1: day before for something else, and then for this one. 662 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: I was like, this is two sentences, like two and 663 00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 1: a half sentences. I'm like, great, this game changer this day. Alright, 664 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: go we're gonna beginning, middle, and end this ship. So 665 00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,759 Speaker 1: I had like a baby scene up tap with no 666 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: words that because I was also the last person they saw, 667 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:12,920 Speaker 1: I wasn't going in at the end of the day. 668 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,040 Speaker 1: The sun side and sheet had a million people. For 669 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,799 Speaker 1: Juror number twelve, I was the last person. Um, it's 670 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: like sixty I do a beginning no words and then 671 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: I do the actual words, and then I had an end, 672 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: and then it was like and she booked it and 673 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: she and I was like, oh, that's what they want. 674 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 1: You need to do this. I need to do this 675 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: all the time because that just proves it out where 676 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 1: there's there's no sides that are too short for beginning, 677 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 1: middle and end. And also like this myth of that 678 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: you have to do exactly the words, Like I don't 679 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: know how you guys feel, but if I don't feel 680 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: like I have enough in my self tapes, I improvise 681 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: like I want. Like I recently went on tape for 682 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,879 Speaker 1: something and it was a comedic role and I knew 683 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: that it was a series regular and a large part, 684 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: but just it just so happened that in the sides 685 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: there were just no there was not a lot of jokes. 686 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:04,720 Speaker 1: So like I thought, if I do this on tape 687 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 1: and I'm not even in the room with a casting director, 688 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:09,960 Speaker 1: they're gonna see this and it's gonna look basic and 689 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: not like nothing.

I wanted to express 827 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 1: my condolences to you guys for the loss of your friend. 828 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 1: How that was. That was very sad to hear about. 829 00:48:19,239 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 1: And I've heard from several people that worked there what 830 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 1: an amazing person and an amazing talent he was. And 831 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 1: I thought that was really classy of SNL to have 832 00:48:28,000 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 1: that piece where all the casts and people involved with 833 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 1: the show we're talking about about about him and his 834 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 1: his goodness and his talent was just he Yeah, he 835 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 1: was someone who, like UM was kind of like came 836 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 1: with the job, he got there, and he was just 837 00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 1: that person who like has been there. Yeah, yeah, I'll 838 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: never introduced himself to me, but just started talking to 839 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 1: me like my first season, and it's the kind of 840 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 1: like it's so the people who have been there for 841 00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 1: so long and do things like that. I'm like, Oh, 842 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 1: it makes you feel seen and sometimes you feel invisible, 843 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 1: and so you so so special in that way. So 844 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm definitely going to miss him. But that was a 845 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 1: really touching special tribute. Imagine imagine I set that up 846 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 1: and AGA was just like, well, he never introduced himself 847 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 1: to me. Well, he never introduced himself to me, so 848 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:25,720 Speaker 1: so I can't comment whatever you need to say about 849 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:27,799 Speaker 1: the piece. And then I guess we're gonna go into 850 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 1: my whole culture thing here. He actually never introduced himself 851 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: to me, so so I just I was reading everyone 852 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 1: else's tributes and I said, okay, okay, they knew him 853 00:49:48,040 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 1: literally laughing. Um, okay, bout Bowen. It's time for you 854 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 1: to ask the question of King. This is the question 855 00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 1: that we have to ask King, which is King, what 856 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:57,520 Speaker 1: is the culture that made you say culture is for me? 857 00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 1: This is the culture that really pivoted your life into 858 00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:03,640 Speaker 1: a cultural direction. You said, I want to be a 859 00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,320 Speaker 1: part of culture. I think the real moment was the 860 00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 1: I can't say a day nor a time, but an 861 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 1: era the bad Boy by Entertainment era Kim and the 862 00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 1: remix of crush On You with all the colors, the 863 00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 1: blue wig, the red wig, the yellow with the matching furs. 864 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,600 Speaker 1: I was, I believe, at that point, eight years old, 865 00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,880 Speaker 1: a young thought, if you will. And I was a 866 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:38,319 Speaker 1: young thought, and I was just like, yes, I want 867 00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:41,319 Speaker 1: to bumble with the bee huh, but that's from all 868 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:45,320 Speaker 1: about the Benjamin's remix. But crush on You. She that 869 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: the colors and that popped. She was such a badass 870 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 1: bully herself. And that's when I said, And just that 871 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 1: entire era, the Mace, the Diddy, I mean at times 872 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: Loon was part of it. Mary J. Blige was part 873 00:50:56,680 --> 00:51:00,879 Speaker 1: of Faith Evans. That whole conglomerate was just like, yes, 874 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 1: culture is for me, culturist for me. Hardcore is an 875 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 1: album that is like all killer, no filler, no skips, 876 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:12,120 Speaker 1: no damn skips, big Mama thing on hardcore, Like do 877 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,239 Speaker 1: I remember, truly I was. I guess I was comparatively 878 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 1: comparatively late to the game with Lo Kim and what 879 00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 1: we can get to the rest of Bad Boy, but 880 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: with Little Kim. The first time I remember the first time. 881 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:24,880 Speaker 1: I do remember the day in the place in the 882 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 1: time that I was first introduced to Lot Kim, which 883 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:31,400 Speaker 1: was which was the Lady Marmaland video, and I was like, 884 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 1: who the fuck is that? And like was just obsessed 885 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 1: and it just because back then, like no one was 886 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:40,839 Speaker 1: doing what she was doing, Like I mean on red 887 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 1: carpets for sure, but even just in terms of like 888 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,359 Speaker 1: overt sexuality, it was like no one was on that level. Yeah, 889 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,760 Speaker 1: and even before that, the titty out at the freaking 890 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:58,719 Speaker 1: I mean yes, the pasty she put on the map 891 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 1: she put and I leave Diddy's um, Missa Hilton, who 892 00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 1: has didd he's one of Diddy's baby Mama's styled little kid. 893 00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 1: It's like the most iconic things she's done and that 894 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 1: would forever go down in history the way she dressed her, 895 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 1: So you know, she really does like get lost in 896 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:20,799 Speaker 1: the conversation. And that was why I think people are 897 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,799 Speaker 1: always like, why are these female rappers coming for each other? 898 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: It's like because you all move on and don't pay respect, 899 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 1: and it's like it's like the way that women get 900 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:35,160 Speaker 1: it in general, it's like people just move on and 901 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: when once they turned forty or whatever. Historically, it's like 902 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,600 Speaker 1: with rappers, it's even worse because it's like you like, 903 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,400 Speaker 1: it really feel sometimes like or has historically like there 904 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 1: could only be one, and I feel like that gets 905 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: into their heads because there is truth behind it, and 906 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,600 Speaker 1: that's why the feuds pop off. And the thing is 907 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:57,800 Speaker 1: and I and I wish there's such power now and 908 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,520 Speaker 1: not like subs gribing to that way of thought that 909 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:03,400 Speaker 1: there could only be one. And yes, the first a 910 00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:06,120 Speaker 1: long time that just was the sort of the case, 911 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,759 Speaker 1: the same where it could only be one minority on 912 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:10,960 Speaker 1: a TV show or what have you. But it's not 913 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: that's not the case anymore. So to see female rappers 914 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:19,360 Speaker 1: not like big epping each other is truly devastating, detrimental, 915 00:53:19,480 --> 00:53:21,840 Speaker 1: and I think takes us back quite a bit in 916 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:23,800 Speaker 1: a way. We don't need, we don't need for that 917 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: to be the case. But I low Kim, Yeah, she 918 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 1: all with all due respect because I'm like she that's 919 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:36,960 Speaker 1: like that overt sexuality, the crass nature of her lyrics, 920 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 1: all of that, I'm like, you have to give it 921 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 1: up to her, Yes, iconic her and Biggie having like 922 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 1: recording themselves having sex or it was just a skit 923 00:53:47,719 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 1: on Biggie's first album. Yeah, but I remember listening to 924 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,600 Speaker 1: that like as a teenager and being like, oh, Mike, 925 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:55,399 Speaker 1: that's and like someone was like that's a little Kim 926 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 1: and I was like what. And then that opened up 927 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 1: like she was like the entry point into like Biggie 928 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:03,839 Speaker 1: and and and Diddy and like I just and all 929 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:07,360 Speaker 1: of that, like like for for from a queer perspective 930 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,920 Speaker 1: or just from like another perspective, like she was like 931 00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 1: the person who like shepherded you into into all of that. 932 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:15,839 Speaker 1: And now it's like and then you like gain an 933 00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 1: appreciation for like the whole collective of people that was, 934 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 1: and it's beautiful. It is, it's so special. I you know. 935 00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:27,280 Speaker 1: Some there's also this thing that like bad Boy ruined 936 00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 1: some careers as well, which I find to be funny 937 00:54:30,120 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 1: and like mildly true because Diddy's was always most concerned 938 00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: with Diddy, which can often be human nature. Right. Um, 939 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: but uh, that entire, I mean that entire, So many 940 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 1: of them that don't even make music anymore. I mean 941 00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,839 Speaker 1: there's there's I Need a Girl Part one in Part 942 00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:54,600 Speaker 1: two there's two parts to part. We don't even know 943 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:56,759 Speaker 1: where Loon is. I feel like I will google, like 944 00:54:56,960 --> 00:55:00,399 Speaker 1: randomly google people from that time that and like where 945 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,320 Speaker 1: are they now? And I think Lun might be in 946 00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: jail or he got me got in trouble for smuggling 947 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 1: some stuff. I do know that at some point what 948 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 1: happened to Mace. Mace became a pastor and then he yeah, 949 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 1: Mace became a pastor. He I don't believe he's still 950 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 1: a pastor, but recently he was. Um months ago, I 951 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:23,440 Speaker 1: had read something about him being like did he give 952 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,399 Speaker 1: me either money or my master's like of his music 953 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,919 Speaker 1: or something? It was one or the other. Like yeah, yeah, 954 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 1: so it might not be all family spirit right now. Yeah, exactly, 955 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:37,400 Speaker 1: it's I don't know that it is. But I did 956 00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,239 Speaker 1: see did he go live yesterday?

I don't know it's somebody from 1154 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:15,920 Speaker 1: Love and hip hop. I don't watch some hip hop, 1155 01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:18,120 Speaker 1: but I know he's like I always hear his name 1156 01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 1: in relation to it, and so he is a main 1157 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 1: player on love and hip Well, speaking of love and 1158 01:07:24,000 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 1: hip hop, like Cardi B and we were talking about before, 1159 01:07:26,920 --> 01:07:29,200 Speaker 1: how they don't it's tough for them to like show 1160 01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,080 Speaker 1: each other love now just because of how competitive it is. 1161 01:07:31,360 --> 01:07:35,400 Speaker 1: She really is on her Instagram shouting out other female rappers, 1162 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 1: shouting out young talents. She really is, like I remember, 1163 01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:40,240 Speaker 1: I chucked out a few of the people that she 1164 01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:44,720 Speaker 1: was talking about because she I think realizes that she 1165 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 1: doesn't want to turn intoto Cki Minaj and I respect 1166 01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 1: the queen, but but but I think that you know, 1167 01:07:53,240 --> 01:07:55,960 Speaker 1: Nikki being the sort of Cardi B of her situation 1168 01:07:56,080 --> 01:07:59,440 Speaker 1: with Kim has now. Really I think that Cardi b 1169 01:07:59,560 --> 01:08:04,480 Speaker 1: reckoned as a cycle. Yeah, I'm glad. I mean I 1170 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:09,280 Speaker 1: really love Cardi. So I really really love Cardi and 1171 01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 1: I did see her shout out those female rappers I'm 1172 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:15,520 Speaker 1: curious because I know Megan and Nikki apparently are friendly, 1173 01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:19,720 Speaker 1: and I've never seen like the Cardian Megan, Like, are 1174 01:08:19,800 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 1: they cool or not cool? What's that interest? We're not 1175 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,880 Speaker 1: big uping, We're not big upping Megan. So I'm but 1176 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:29,200 Speaker 1: I am happy that Cardi is trying making some effort, 1177 01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:34,120 Speaker 1: some some public effort to be supportive. Yeah, I think 1178 01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:37,479 Speaker 1: Megan seems to not want to get in the fray 1179 01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:40,160 Speaker 1: too much, just in terms of the beef of it all. 1180 01:08:40,840 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like she, like saw the 1181 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:46,880 Speaker 1: Nikki thing is like a way too. I don't know, 1182 01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 1: it wasn't it's it's not transactional. I don't I don't 1183 01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I'm just I just think that 1184 01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 1: Megan is like being very tactful and strategic about this 1185 01:08:57,080 --> 01:08:59,680 Speaker 1: whole thing, and she she just seems like she's someone 1186 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 1: who probably doesn't want to start too much craziness either around. 1187 01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,680 Speaker 1: She hasn't even really begun yet. I mean, like it's 1188 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,760 Speaker 1: just now that the you know it, probably rap fans 1189 01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:13,080 Speaker 1: haven'tone about her from for quite a while, but like 1190 01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:16,360 Speaker 1: in terms of the general public, she's just now reaching 1191 01:09:16,400 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 1: the surface of people really getting to know Megan the stallion, 1192 01:09:20,840 --> 01:09:23,720 Speaker 1: and I feel like, you know, it's the fact that 1193 01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:28,280 Speaker 1: she even has to like deal like with with people 1194 01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:30,640 Speaker 1: waiting for the next big feud is like such a 1195 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:35,280 Speaker 1: shame to deal with that.

It's exactly how she fun big. 1237 01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:07,240 Speaker 1: She she I just reasonally saw a video of her 1238 01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:10,720 Speaker 1: talking about fighting, like girls fighting, and she was like 1239 01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:16,479 Speaker 1: hell no, oh yeah, it was a pitchfork thing. Yes, 1240 01:12:16,680 --> 01:12:19,560 Speaker 1: it's very funny. It was very funny, good free. She's like, 1241 01:12:19,680 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 1: nails cost too much. It all is like that, okay, 1242 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:28,760 Speaker 1: But the three of us are also like, we're also 1243 01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:33,519 Speaker 1: like Nikki, We're all I'm a I'm a bar I'm 1244 01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:38,799 Speaker 1: a bar but Barb. I need Barb to be kinder 1245 01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:44,120 Speaker 1: to Belle Cully's elements are, Yeah, I need Barbed to 1246 01:12:44,200 --> 01:12:48,519 Speaker 1: be a little kinder because it's just not becoming to be. 1247 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:51,400 Speaker 1: But I don't know the deets, right, so like I 1248 01:12:51,439 --> 01:12:53,800 Speaker 1: don't want to like chime in and be like this 1249 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:55,960 Speaker 1: is what you should be doing or how you should 1250 01:12:56,040 --> 01:12:58,240 Speaker 1: be handling it, because I don't know what's going on 1251 01:12:58,400 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 1: behind the storms. But anytime she goes on like Queen 1252 01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:06,320 Speaker 1: Radio and just kind of like goes off, You're like this, 1253 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 1: this feels this sounds chaotic because I think she and 1254 01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:14,000 Speaker 1: the kind of what we have loved about her is 1255 01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 1: that she is this very like diffusely chaotic person, and 1256 01:13:18,640 --> 01:13:21,240 Speaker 1: so you're just kind of like you can't really as 1257 01:13:21,280 --> 01:13:23,200 Speaker 1: like as like a fan, I can't really latch on 1258 01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:26,599 Speaker 1: anything she's saying. When she's like trying to like defend herself, 1259 01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:28,639 Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, but what what does this even mean? 1260 01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:33,280 Speaker 1: I think she's confused about what people want from her. 1261 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,560 Speaker 1: And I also think that she pretends to be unbothered 1262 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:41,559 Speaker 1: when she's really kind of bothered. And I think that she, um, 1263 01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:45,639 Speaker 1: you know, you've never really had to in the beginnings 1264 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,240 Speaker 1: of her career, her first several albums, you never really 1265 01:13:48,280 --> 01:13:51,000 Speaker 1: had to worry about, like, um, her being on the 1266 01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:54,800 Speaker 1: defensive because she always has seemed so invincible. And I 1267 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:58,840 Speaker 1: think that people just are not kind to women, and 1268 01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:02,800 Speaker 1: especially Black women over time, especially when you do have 1269 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:05,839 Speaker 1: a shiny, new young thing, even though they are literally 1270 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:09,479 Speaker 1: so different, and I never think when I'm listening to 1271 01:14:09,600 --> 01:14:13,240 Speaker 1: one comparing them to the other. It's just literally in 1272 01:14:13,439 --> 01:14:17,839 Speaker 1: terms of content, it's different in terms of like style, 1273 01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:22,559 Speaker 1: it's different delivery, it's different type of music, it's different background, influence, 1274 01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:25,960 Speaker 1: all different. So for me, it's like I think that 1275 01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:29,320 Speaker 1: it's a lot of the call is coming from inside 1276 01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:32,760 Speaker 1: the house. The monster is within with her. Because you know, 1277 01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:35,640 Speaker 1: the music didn't get worse. It's still good. I mean, 1278 01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:39,120 Speaker 1: her albums are still good. And I think if there 1279 01:14:39,560 --> 01:14:42,559 Speaker 1: if there's one thing that's not happening with Nikki, it's 1280 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:45,519 Speaker 1: that she doesn't really deliver you pop singles anymore. But 1281 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:49,080 Speaker 1: that's because everyone got at her for doing pop singles. 1282 01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 1: I mean, and like, it is so much more difficult 1283 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:56,040 Speaker 1: to be someone who's crossing over from rap because you 1284 01:14:56,160 --> 01:14:58,160 Speaker 1: do the pop singles because you can do it. I mean, 1285 01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:02,560 Speaker 1: she had bops on bops like super Base and Starships 1286 01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:05,320 Speaker 1: and I mean, what have you Pound the Alarm? All 1287 01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 1: these songs that had amazing pop books, and she was 1288 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:11,120 Speaker 1: a very good pop star. But then people are so 1289 01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:13,600 Speaker 1: much harder from her from by all angles because she 1290 01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 1: loses quote unquote credibility because she is who she is 1291 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:18,720 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. And I think she 1292 01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:20,840 Speaker 1: has just gotten in her head to a point where 1293 01:15:20,880 --> 01:15:23,479 Speaker 1: it's just like hopefully not the point of no return. 1294 01:15:23,600 --> 01:15:25,360 Speaker 1: But you add Cardi in the mix there and it 1295 01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:30,080 Speaker 1: was like just a bad mix of things for her. Yeah, 1296 01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:36,799 Speaker 1: I think that's a great diagnosis. Actually, I'm like, you're like, yikes, yikes, 1297 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:40,439 Speaker 1: which is like not a pop but it's it's so good. 1298 01:15:40,560 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 1: Could not stop playing it when I heard it. Um, 1299 01:15:43,880 --> 01:15:46,799 Speaker 1: I do think that she she is trying to balance 1300 01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 1: like that street credit because she's feels she's trying to 1301 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:54,920 Speaker 1: hold onto that while maybe uh, Cardi b as kind 1302 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:57,200 Speaker 1: of taking grab of that. But there's but there's enough 1303 01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:00,800 Speaker 1: to go around. We have hundreds of male rappers, um, 1304 01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:03,799 Speaker 1: and I'm like, we can have hundreds of female rappers. 1305 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:09,960 Speaker 1: Let's do it. Let's you know, but absolutely, I mean, look, 1306 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:14,599 Speaker 1: it might not be like like all like Max Martin 1307 01:16:14,680 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 1: sample like Max Martin produced ship, but it's still really good. 1308 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:21,439 Speaker 1: And I mean, the thing is to it, it really 1309 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:25,680 Speaker 1: does all can be boiled down to sexism. And unfortunately 1310 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:29,080 Speaker 1: she also fell into the wrong side of a like 1311 01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:32,680 Speaker 1: sort of dichotomy, the trope, which is Cardia is a 1312 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:35,640 Speaker 1: nice person and Nikki is a mean person. And so 1313 01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:39,080 Speaker 1: you have your good verse evil narrative. And you know 1314 01:16:39,160 --> 01:16:42,040 Speaker 1: what I mean, people like whether or not it's true, 1315 01:16:42,200 --> 01:16:44,799 Speaker 1: and you do hear things about like the way Nicky behaves, 1316 01:16:44,880 --> 01:16:47,600 Speaker 1: but it's something that we all used to embrace her for. 1317 01:16:48,439 --> 01:16:51,479 Speaker 1: And now because we have something else where, like, never mind, 1318 01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,559 Speaker 1: she's mean and not a good person. Meanwhile, we used 1319 01:16:54,600 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 1: to love when she would say bosst up. We used 1320 01:16:57,840 --> 01:17:01,599 Speaker 1: to love when she would point out, like how people 1321 01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:03,800 Speaker 1: in her industry behaved that way and look the other 1322 01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:05,639 Speaker 1: way when there are men like we used to love 1323 01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 1: that about her, And I feel like people are now 1324 01:17:08,160 --> 01:17:11,400 Speaker 1: conveniently deciding to move on. It's it's yeah, it's a 1325 01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:14,320 Speaker 1: shame because she is the queen. Yeah, I gotta give her, 1326 01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:17,519 Speaker 1: gotta give her her props. And no one's funnier either. 1327 01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:21,559 Speaker 1: You said, no one's funnier, No one's funnier. So Nikki 1328 01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:26,840 Speaker 1: that Anika. I think she's so funny to see see 1329 01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:31,320 Speaker 1: this is where you lose me, Matt. I mean in 1330 01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:36,200 Speaker 1: the I mean in the reps themselves. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. 1331 01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:44,759 Speaker 1: Comedian because I think Cardi hilarious, is so fucking funny, 1332 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:49,160 Speaker 1: like I could name. When I first discovered her Instagram 1333 01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:52,880 Speaker 1: years ago, I sat and I just I went down 1334 01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:56,040 Speaker 1: a rabbit hole. I was like, everything is so funny. 1335 01:17:56,439 --> 01:17:58,320 Speaker 1: And one that sticks out to me from the last 1336 01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:00,040 Speaker 1: one year and a half, maybe even two year, is 1337 01:18:00,080 --> 01:18:03,240 Speaker 1: at this point is her when people see her at Target. 1338 01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:04,840 Speaker 1: Have you seen that vide where she's like, if you 1339 01:18:04,920 --> 01:18:07,439 Speaker 1: see me at Target, like, don't come up to me, 1340 01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,080 Speaker 1: yell like talking about what am I doing to Target? 1341 01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:16,360 Speaker 1: The same thing you're doing stealing? You know that talk 1342 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:25,040 Speaker 1: show what it's called. It's called wash Poppingppy. She's going 1343 01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:28,280 Speaker 1: to do it from her bed. Oh my god, perfect. 1344 01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:31,559 Speaker 1: I love Literally if they're paying her a billion dollars 1345 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:33,920 Speaker 1: for that, I have a bed talking now, I feel 1346 01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:35,920 Speaker 1: like Muscht change it. If Cardi is doing and talk 1347 01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:37,640 Speaker 1: show from her bad I got to think of something now. 1348 01:18:41,320 --> 01:18:44,679 Speaker 1: But Cardi is Cardi. There's so many queens in the queendom, 1349 01:18:44,760 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 1: and there's several kings in the kingdom. There's a lot 1350 01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:54,000 Speaker 1: of but not everybody is royalty. Sometimes friends will be like, girl, 1351 01:18:54,520 --> 01:18:56,840 Speaker 1: you don't need him, you're the prize. Sometimes I hear 1352 01:18:56,840 --> 01:19:04,320 Speaker 1: it with people and I go, she's you're a good friend. Actually, 1353 01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:10,320 Speaker 1: you're a good friend. Actually actually actually, Now, all this 1354 01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:13,880 Speaker 1: culture spilleth over and we are at that point where 1355 01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:18,040 Speaker 1: we gotta do I don't think so, honey. Now, Ego 1356 01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:20,839 Speaker 1: actually has graced us with her presence at our live shows, 1357 01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 1: and speaking of live shows, bitch, I feel like we 1358 01:19:24,479 --> 01:19:26,720 Speaker 1: are itching and scratching to do another live show, but 1359 01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:29,600 Speaker 1: you know, the quarantine makes it very difficult. I was 1360 01:19:29,680 --> 01:19:33,640 Speaker 1: thinking about this poem, yes, about how I'm craving the 1361 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:37,720 Speaker 1: live experience. I was thinking about it before this, and like, 1362 01:19:37,840 --> 01:19:41,920 Speaker 1: how fun that was a true blast. We might have 1363 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:44,280 Speaker 1: to do something virtual, and we might have to feature King. 1364 01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:47,280 Speaker 1: We might have to feature I mean, King is willing, 1365 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:49,640 Speaker 1: and I feel like if you did something virtual, the 1366 01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:55,400 Speaker 1: numbers would be popping. It's all And ultimately it's numbers 1367 01:19:56,880 --> 01:20:00,800 Speaker 1: because numbers. Let me tell you something, people do things 1368 01:20:01,479 --> 01:20:07,120 Speaker 1: virtually too little to say to a small audience. Okay, 1369 01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:11,120 Speaker 1: and that's okay, that's fault. That's nobody's fault, because honestly, 1370 01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:13,120 Speaker 1: my whole thing is if you were bringing joy to 1371 01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:15,760 Speaker 1: one person, corny as it may be the job, you're 1372 01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:20,120 Speaker 1: doing your job, so um, but this is one if 1373 01:20:20,160 --> 01:20:22,800 Speaker 1: you were to do live, I do believe would be 1374 01:20:23,040 --> 01:20:26,400 Speaker 1: people would be hungering. And I think we all have things, 1375 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:30,240 Speaker 1: even the quarantine souls of comedians are desperate to rant 1376 01:20:30,479 --> 01:20:34,360 Speaker 1: about things right now. We are because I actually but 1377 01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:38,439 Speaker 1: I got one. I had was like she had options, Okay, 1378 01:20:41,800 --> 01:20:45,839 Speaker 1: I had a list Anny. Okay, King is the funniest 1379 01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:47,360 Speaker 1: I gotta say that. Wait, hold on one thing that 1380 01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:50,720 Speaker 1: King did. Speaking of quarantine content, the one of the 1381 01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:53,639 Speaker 1: highlights of Quarantine so far from me has been when 1382 01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:57,400 Speaker 1: King and Heidie Gardner did an Instagram live Home Shopping 1383 01:20:57,400 --> 01:21:00,640 Speaker 1: Network bet and they were playing the two characters and 1384 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:03,919 Speaker 1: at one point this made me howl in my damn apartment. 1385 01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:08,479 Speaker 1: At one point, Um, they're just they're dispandering in between 1386 01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:11,760 Speaker 1: items products, and then Heidi's like, um, what was your 1387 01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:14,320 Speaker 1: what was your characters name? Again? My character's name was 1388 01:21:14,479 --> 01:21:19,559 Speaker 1: Justina Pinch Justina Justina. If you if you weren't working 1389 01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:21,320 Speaker 1: on Home Shopping Network, what would you be doing? What 1390 01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,320 Speaker 1: would your job be? And then who goes I would 1391 01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:32,360 Speaker 1: be a thief. I would be a thief man. That 1392 01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:35,840 Speaker 1: was fun. I would be a thief. That would be 1393 01:21:36,080 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 1: a thief. Yes, I don't want to work. That's the reality. 1394 01:21:39,680 --> 01:21:42,320 Speaker 1: You don't really want to work. King called in and 1395 01:21:42,400 --> 01:21:44,320 Speaker 1: that was so fun. And I feel like more things 1396 01:21:44,439 --> 01:21:47,360 Speaker 1: like that should happen. And what I predict will be 1397 01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:56,160 Speaker 1: another eight weeks of quarantine. I had I have to 1398 01:21:56,200 --> 01:21:59,439 Speaker 1: ask for your forgiveness because O King was really considering 1399 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:03,280 Speaker 1: leaving me or no, no, no, this is I'm gonna 1400 01:22:03,360 --> 01:22:07,160 Speaker 1: like myself. King was considering leaving New York City in 1401 01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,360 Speaker 1: the early weeks of quarantine, and and she was like 1402 01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:12,600 Speaker 1: really stressing out, and she was like, I should go 1403 01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 1: to l A and be with myself. Is it okay, 1404 01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:16,640 Speaker 1: I'm talking about this, Yes, this is great. Okay. She 1405 01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:18,200 Speaker 1: was like, I should be with my sister. My sister 1406 01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:19,320 Speaker 1: at the house in l A. I should go to 1407 01:22:19,479 --> 01:22:22,640 Speaker 1: l A like this is the first week, and then 1408 01:22:22,760 --> 01:22:25,680 Speaker 1: I and then how He's like, you know, I was 1409 01:22:25,720 --> 01:22:27,600 Speaker 1: talking to go today and she's she's not sure what 1410 01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:29,880 Speaker 1: to do.

And I'm 1418 01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:56,880 Speaker 1: not saying even saying that to make you feel better. 1419 01:22:57,080 --> 01:22:59,720 Speaker 1: It is that it is the correct choice. I have 1420 01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:03,519 Speaker 1: my own space and I am like, I'm not in 1421 01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:05,559 Speaker 1: anyone's way. No one's in my way.

And then 1437 01:23:51,320 --> 01:23:53,120 Speaker 1: I and I was like, I haven't done anything. But 1438 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: what will happen is once I do make up my 1439 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:56,320 Speaker 1: mind when I wake up, that's all I'll do. It 1440 01:23:56,320 --> 01:23:59,880 Speaker 1: won't even require any thought. Five sweatshirts, five pants. You 1441 01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:01,640 Speaker 1: go to l A, you're gonna be stuck in the 1442 01:24:01,720 --> 01:24:06,800 Speaker 1: house anyway, So fucking glad I did not.

But have you seen this papoosa? Besides, 1700 01:38:14,960 --> 01:38:18,439 Speaker 1: we can move on from the papoosa's and and go forward. 1701 01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:20,200 Speaker 1: Now we're trying to shake out what to do with 1702 01:38:20,240 --> 01:38:23,200 Speaker 1: the papoosa scraps and how to not throw that all away. 1703 01:38:23,560 --> 01:38:25,880 Speaker 1: There's no there's no dog or animal in the house 1704 01:38:26,040 --> 01:38:31,240 Speaker 1: right there. That's actually good. I wish I wish I 1705 01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:34,479 Speaker 1: could help with the flop and eat it and not 1706 01:38:34,720 --> 01:38:39,560 Speaker 1: good like it just is like tasteless fop.

Yeah, 1709 01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:47,479 Speaker 1: but you have to be truthful to the friend of King. 1710 01:38:48,560 --> 01:38:52,000 Speaker 1: And I really fift it as the Whites would say, 1711 01:38:53,479 --> 01:38:57,880 Speaker 1: fift it.
