It's like, yeah, 56 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 1: that's the great thing about a lot of the sports now. 57 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: It feels like when you used to go to like 58 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: a community college sports game and it was like, you know, 59 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: I can't hear the players and coaches, Like I don't 60 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,839 Speaker 1: even hear the critinal crowd here, but I can hear yeah, 61 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: like it's kind of talking. Yeah, we're gonna that's gonna 62 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: be a list you're gonna start seeing. It's like best 63 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: ship talkers that have been revealed during the Pandemic League, 64 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: because yeah, you're gonna be able to hear everything that 65 00:03:55,560 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: that Dodgers picture who said nice swing, bitch, Joe Kelly, 66 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: I got spender for two games? Yeah, fucked up and up. 67 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: I mean, look, we're playing the Astros. You know there's 68 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: a fuckings. They stole the World Series. Okay, so there's 69 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: there's gonna be problems. And yes he was I mean 70 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: Joe Kelly, he's like one of those players like how 71 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: Ron our test used to be when he wasn't on 72 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,799 Speaker 1: the team you fucked with where you like, I hate 73 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: this motherfucker. Get him on the league, Like, but then 74 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: he's on your team and you're like, yes, go on, Ron, 75 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: and yeah you got when you got like the Walton 76 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 1: Goggins Johnny Knoxville crossover face, Uh talking ship to you 77 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: from the mound, it's really something else. That's a T shirt. 78 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: Nice swing bit he's comments. But I feel like then 79 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: major leagues like because they suspended him for way more 80 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: than you would have expected. But I think they're just 81 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: trying to get there, get ahead of the fact that 82 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 1: people are going to be throwing at the astros constantly, 83 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: because because the astros, uh, I mean, what they should 84 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: do is one batter should go up there as tribute 85 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: and then all right, you get it out of the 86 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: way the first pitches from your closer, just like a fastball. 87 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: That's how I throw out the first pitch, and the 88 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,799 Speaker 1: person is catching it is just an astro who doesn't 89 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,559 Speaker 1: have a glove. No, yeah, there's yeah, there's there's actually 90 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: no catcher. It's just one batter. He's straddling home base 91 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: with his arms out like that Da Vinci fucking just 92 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: straight up and be like all right, man, send it, send, 93 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: send it, go like and then but they do that 94 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: to protect the other batters, you know, and I think 95 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: you can feel good, oh man, but I'm I'm excited 96 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 1: for the m b A. This is gonna be hopefully okay, 97 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: hopefully tough. It's a weird thing, you know, because on 98 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: one level, it's like these people are getting better care 99 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: than like the fronts, so we can get some ship 100 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,160 Speaker 1: going on TV. But then I'm like, yeah, but you know, 101 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: it helps distract me from the fact that the front 102 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: line workers are being taken care of. So what do 103 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: I do? Oh? Yeah, it's it's everything is just so 104 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: painfully surreal no matter why you look at it. Yeah, 105 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: and NBA players are pretty elite at what they do, 106 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: like to everybody wants to be an NBA player. They're 107 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: like the greatest athletes in the world. So I'm not 108 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: saying they deserve to be taken care of better than doctors. 109 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: But you're saying you're like, well, I would, I will 110 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 1: give up my medical care for them. Like that picture 111 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: that was going around where people, uh NFL players were 112 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: kneeling and in the background a cop was like standing 113 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 1: up and someone was like, his job so much harder 114 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: than the NFL players. It's like, no, it's you can 115 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: murder people and then get attention, right, you get in 116 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,359 Speaker 1: the NFL and they forget about the hardest job. Anyways. 117 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: Know what's something that you think is overrated? Okay, this 118 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: is controversial. I've recently discovered Dr Seuss is hella overrated 119 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: in having to read children's book to my baby. Let 120 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: me tell you something. One Fish to fish, red fish, 121 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: Bluefish is trash, trash. I didn't listen at the original box. No. 122 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: Dr Fish has hits he's got hits. I'm not trying 123 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: to take away some of the great ones, but everyone 124 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: just knows the one fish, two fish, red fish, bluefish. 125 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: I defy anyone to read all thirty to forty pages 126 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: of that book out loud to yourself, your friends, or 127 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: your child, and I'd be like, this is garbage. Wait, 128 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: there's more than just that one page that says one 129 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: fish to fish exactly. That's what I'm saying. Way, what's 130 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: what's the rest of it? Never heard anything else? Do 131 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: you have a joint? Go get a joint? How much 132 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: joint can you? Ain't go? Point? It's just like it's 133 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 1: gibberish and lazy writing. Oh man, I'm sticking. But listen, 134 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm stick. He was on a wave. He was on 135 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: a wave, you know, like he was just writing that ship. 136 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it's going off. The kids are loving he 137 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: was the Shakespeare of our time. Now I'm saying he's 138 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: allowed to rest on his laurels of a good title. 139 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: No one's reading the entire anthology and realizing how lazy 140 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: the god. I don't think I've every remember, even as 141 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: a kid, getting tired of it, Like maybe green eggs 142 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: and ham is the only one I've read all the 143 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: way because I can kind of remember what it was 144 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: about everything else, and I'm like, yo, this is just 145 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: a little ship and he's the green eggs and ham 146 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 1: green eggs and ham as bars. I think I forget 147 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: the title of things like the Sneeches and the star 148 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: belly Fish or something that was. Yeah, and like, so 149 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,680 Speaker 1: he's got some heat. Like I'm not I'm not saying 150 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: as a whole he presents no value, but I'm saying, 151 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: over read if you look at the whole yet, because 152 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: right now you're sounding a little bit like little And 153 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 1: when he said Tupac was overrated, those kids pressed him 154 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: at the Del Taco and Cerritos. No, but all right, 155 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: but I just I just like in the beginning of 156 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 1: the vibe of a lazy now, doctor, okay, somebody better 157 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: let him know. Well you no way. I will say 158 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: this like Dr Luis was getting the coins right, so 159 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 1: he had the popping books. But sometimes you know, when 160 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 1: you're getting coins to just crank out a book every 161 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: now and then, you got to crank out some mid 162 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: at some point. I mean, there's truly a song that's 163 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: put on a happy face by Destiny's Child and I 164 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,240 Speaker 1: listened to it the other day in the car and 165 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,839 Speaker 1: realized that I think they just didn't write the song. 166 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: Like it's like I'm breathing, I'm grateful, so put on 167 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: a happy face. They have like a good chorus, and 168 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: then everything else is like people on the beat. Like 169 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: Kelly Rowland comes on, She's like it's me. I was like, 170 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: where the song? And then until the show comes out? 171 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: She's like, if thing's gonna be all right and if 172 00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: the thing is gonna be okay? And I was like, no, 173 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 1: wrote the song, but they couldn't give Michelle that is 174 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: me lyric because no one would know who it was. 175 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: Oh no, is she okay? I feel like Kelly. I 176 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 1: mean I always hear about Kelly. You know. Yeah, I 177 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 1: want everybody that's Cally. That's a Michelle's real name is Tnitra. 178 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: It is Yes, they took that girls name away because 179 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:27,359 Speaker 1: they said her name was to again names Yance Calandria 180 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 1: and to Natra that's a child. What is their name? 181 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: Is the only one that got to stay. Of course, 182 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: her name is literally a last name that her mom 183 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: would like jug up. The last name is b and 184 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: say and then she made it Beyonce. You know what, 185 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: Tina do you know what? Tina? All Right, there needs 186 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: to be a Tina Knowles name generator, you know what 187 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: I mean, Like you put your name in and then 188 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: it gets and it gets Tina Knowles a fied. Uh 189 00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: you know, somebody, somebody build that. Yeah, Solange selective, Yeah, 190 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 1: I remember that shampoo. All right, let's look at just 191 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: national opinion around black lives matter, just because I started getting, 192 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 1: like for the very first time some like, so I 193 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: remember a time when the arguments around gay marriage were 194 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: viewed something like the arguments around defunding the police are now, uh, like, 195 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: you know, it's obvious to us what is right, but 196 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: their political roadblocks that make it not feasible at all 197 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: in the near term. Uh. And then suddenly everything shifted 198 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: and it was a majority opinion that people who loved 199 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 1: each other should be able to marry each other. But 200 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: the difference between the mainstream public reception of just the 201 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: kneeling protests, which obviously not the crux of the issue, 202 00:11:54,200 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 1: but it is like a signifier, have been shifting really significantly. 203 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: You know. It was a minority, uh, like a pretty 204 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: significant minority opinion in favor of the people kneeling during protests, 205 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 1: and recently, CBS News asked people whether kneeling during national 206 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: anthem to protest racial discrimination is acceptable or unacceptable, and 207 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: fifty eight percent said acceptable. So we're starting to see 208 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: at least some sort of shift in the overall, you know, 209 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: public perception of of this conversation around police violence and 210 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: you know, white supremacy. But uh, you know, so when 211 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: there's a question like this, we obviously looked to our 212 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: national expert on these issues, Rush Limbaugh, who has some 213 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: interesting things to say on the I'm sorry this fucking 214 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: old white man. He's so out of touch. It's so 215 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: there's like this pole that he was talking about his 216 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: show that showed like some you know, something like sixty 217 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: support uh somewhat of the Black Lives Matter movement, and 218 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: he's just like, I don't, I don't, I don't understand, 219 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: like what's going on here. So we're gonna we're talking 220 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: to this guy who's he's a he's a cab driver 221 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,520 Speaker 1: in St. Louis. So first he has his man on, 222 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 1: who's a cab driver from St. Louis. And this first 223 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: they started off to think they're both kind of in 224 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 1: disbelief that they're seeing a lot of Black Lives Matter 225 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,480 Speaker 1: yard signs up. This is what he's going to describe. 226 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: And he's also tries to explain, like what the Black 227 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: Lives Matter yard signs are really about. Um, that's whole 228 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 1: for Black Lives Matter, in my opinion, reflects the outrage 229 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: over the killing of George Floyd. It does not reflect 230 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: support for the full Black Lives Matter. Somehow the pole 231 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: was able to capture that in the way it was 232 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: worded or the way they led people, or however it 233 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: was communicated. That's what they tapped into. Half the Black 234 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: Lives Matter. There's signs out there came up right after 235 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:07,440 Speaker 1: George Floyd was killed. So that's okay. I don't know 236 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: what what again, because I think in the conservative media sphere, 237 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: black Lives Matter is a terrorist organization funded by George 238 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: Soros that is here to basically wreak havoc on white 239 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: communities by destroying the police so that thugs uh and 240 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: Millie rockers and break dancers sets ray gay out here. 241 00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,760 Speaker 1: But Russia. Limbaugh famously has no type, so he's definitely 242 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: a race strummerd fan. So his whole thing is so 243 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: after he hears that you know, like there's he's like 244 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: he has to cut this man off, and he's like, wait, 245 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: people got yard signs. Listen to this one. Are you 246 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: are you telling me that as you as you work 247 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 1: your average day, you're driving around the St. Louis you 248 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: see Black Lives Matter signs like you would see a 249 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: Trump sign or a Biden sign, and people struct your 250 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: lots of them. Yeah. Sure, that's a long pause he 251 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: does that that. He was like, wait, hold on, hold on, 252 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: they're like white people who put a sign in their 253 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: yard saying that they think black lives Okay, so this 254 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 1: is how much he goes even deeper into the denial 255 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: this motherfucker. Then he has to survey the studio because 256 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: he can't believe what this man just said to him 257 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: on the phone. Listen this part. No, no, no, no, no, 258 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 1: wait wait, I need to do a survey here. Have 259 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: you guys seen Black Lives Matter signs in yards? Not 260 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: in your neighbor I have never seen a Black Lives 261 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,480 Speaker 1: Matter sign anywhere, like like you see a Trump sign 262 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 1: or any other politician sign. You're saying that Black Lives 263 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: Matter signs are are all over the place in St. Louis. 264 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: Absolutely they were originally in the African American neighborhood. Then 265 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: he goes on and blah blah blah, wrestling bun seeking 266 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: five people like Vanilla Coke. What is going on? There 267 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: are there are that many race traders? Oh my god. 268 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: So then he's now so he's he can't he doesn't 269 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: know what he's really He's then convinces himself that it's 270 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: these posters that are, you know, work reworking the data 271 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: to present, uh, you know, a very unbalanced opinion of 272 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: what the country actually looks like. You. But the posters 273 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: obviously are doing this purposely because I'm telling you, folks, 274 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 1: I think this is this is another attempt by Gallup 275 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: and whoever the posters are to shape public opinion and 276 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: not reflected because I refuse to believe, I refuse to 277 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: believe that sixty five of the American people support this insanity. Wow, 278 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: you see, it's I think it goes to show you 279 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: what are bubbles look like on all sides, right, whether 280 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,959 Speaker 1: it's progressive liberals not believing that there is an entire 281 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 1: nation of aggrieved, working class white people who are looking 282 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: for just I don't know what to make of anything, 283 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: and are willing to vote for this racist guy. The 284 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: same way this man has been so insulated by his 285 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: uh you know, ignorance and racism that he's not even 286 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: in a situation to be around people who would voice 287 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: their support in alignment with the Black Lives Matter movement. 288 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,200 Speaker 1: Like that is really telling. And whether that's willfully he's 289 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: not trying to look at it, or he's it's not willful, 290 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: it's happening, and it's just very interesting. There's a very 291 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 1: like visceral rejection having to it's not it. It feels 292 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: different than him just being like yeah, okay, sure, yeah, 293 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: because you know there's gonna be these liberals out here. Yeah, 294 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,719 Speaker 1: they're they're gonna do anything. It was almost like he couldn't. 295 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: He's like they're at our doorstep. Yeah. It's mean, you know, 296 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: it's like when when it gets to that point where 297 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 1: they're like, oh, it's here, but I just can't accept it. 298 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: It's great. You know. It's like those guys that I 299 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: couldn't accept my son being gay, and then it's just 300 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: right in my face and I just gotta deal with you. 301 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: I think the same thing even like with the gay 302 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: marriage thing, right, it's like a weird, outdated, like opinion 303 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: that has just sort of existed in culture and if 304 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:25,959 Speaker 1: you haven't taken the time to examine it, or you 305 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 1: in your life has not intersected with a person in 306 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: the same sexual relationship or you know, non traditional marriage, Uh, 307 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: then yeah, like you're you're you, you might not be 308 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 1: able to get rid of those things. But then the 309 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 1: second you do, and it sort of becomes you're like, yeah, 310 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: what the fund do I care if the gay people 311 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 1: get married? Like that act has nothing to do with me, 312 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: so yeah, And then the same way with this, like yeah, 313 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: what the fund do I care? If? I'm like, yeah, 314 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: do like police need to relax on like this like 315 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: racism ship like that actually literally doesn't affect me. I'm 316 00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: saying like yeah, in fact, like I think it would 317 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: be cool if there was less bullshit. Now. I think 318 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: a lot of people you with that general statement. But 319 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: then when you get down to the defunding and those 320 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,320 Speaker 1: other sort of details, maybe things start to fracture. But 321 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: that sentiment of sort of like do you believe it's 322 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: bad for police officers to brutalize unarmed black and brown people, 323 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 1: It's like um, yeah, yeah, yeah, and rest of the 324 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: US just going out and then then so then because 325 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: f c because when we all are faced with some 326 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: realities and some truths we just cannot accept, we gotta 327 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: start spinning the wheels and be like there has to 328 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: be another explanation so that he's he has an idea 329 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 1: where that sixty came from and who's really been driving 330 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: this whole Black Lives Matter movement? What's it called, like 331 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: the six degrees of like um of dealing of coping? 332 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 1: Was it? You know, like, yeah, the eight stages of coping, 333 00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 1: trying to like rationalized, negotiating, rationalization through all of that. 334 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: Sure they didn't reverse the numbers or five percent or 335 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 1: six percent in that poll. Did they ask if black 336 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: lives matter or if white supremacies chill? If it's a 337 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: whole last fibe, They need to word these polls. So 338 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: gen Z understands what we're talking about white supremacy a wave. 339 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: So yeah, this is him now being like, okay, nah, 340 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: whatever stage of grief is, which I guess you just 341 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 1: blame white women for everything. Yeah, Now I believe that 342 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: of millennial white women might support it, mm hmm, But 343 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: I don't believe sixty of the American people do. I 344 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 1: know that this protest is largely driven by millennial, college 345 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 1: educated white women. Huh, you know, more and more women. 346 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 1: I'll yet, I'll show you what I mean in the 347 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 1: next hour. But more and more young women in this 348 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: country are becoming nothing more than the hoods. Your average 349 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 1: ne'er do well in the hood? White women? Um what 350 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: white women, millennial white women, you are the new black men. Welcome, 351 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 1: according to the eyes of the Great rush limbod so 352 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: his whole again. You ask any black permit favorite movies. 353 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,919 Speaker 1: Ask any person who has been around any activism the 354 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 1: last couple of months. You be like, who's driving this? Oh, yeah, 355 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 1: you white women. But I think because the ally ship 356 00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:48,399 Speaker 1: is so traded, like it's so visible, and you see, Like, 357 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 1: I think that's the problem is he cannot believe that 358 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: he's like white women. Like white women used to pull 359 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: up for racism very subtly, and now they're marching for 360 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: black lives Like I can't. So I think to them, 361 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,920 Speaker 1: because white women are like the greatest force in politics 362 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: in this country, It's like, that's who's behind Black lives 363 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: Matter all of these It's not the entirety of the 364 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: country that was rejecting systemic racism, which she's white women 365 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: who went to Sarah Lawrence, you know, bachelors behind the 366 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: black lives. I don't know who Angela Davis is. Did 367 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 1: she go to Scripts College for women? It's like, what 368 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: these liberal art degree you know he has a niece. 369 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: There's a niece or a cousin. You're a second cousin. 370 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: Who's behind this opinion? Right, who's thinking of shaded him 371 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: at Christmas or something? A couple of years beater? And 372 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: you know, I'm really disappointed in Melissa. She she changed 373 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,640 Speaker 1: her last name because she didn't want to be a Limbaugh. 374 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, you hate to see it and 375 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 1: you'd love to see it. That is my favorite piece 376 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: of audio we've been But yeah, right, I think, yeah, 377 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 1: shout out to Watt for appointing me in that direction. 378 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: But but I think at the same time, this is 379 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: also this what's going on in the minds of some 380 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: of these older white racists and younger white racists who 381 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: are like, like, like I said, it's the fourth quarter 382 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: for some of these people. I'm not gonna just sit 383 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: here and let I'll be damned if I let white 384 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: supremacy go by the wayside just like that. Because some 385 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 1: college educated white women decided to make some signs. Um, 386 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: and that's why you know that the opposition will grow, 387 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: I think, or maybe you'll see how many people really 388 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: have that kind of energy, Like I'm sure it sucks 389 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 1: to be like, oh my brand is losing. Uh, it sucks. 390 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 1: But then but just the same, you see these counter 391 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: protests where there are plenty of people who are willing to, 392 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: you know, confront allies of the Black Lives Matter movement 393 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 1: or anybody who is against systemic white supremacy. So all right, 394 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: so let's take a quick break and we'll be right back. 395 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 1: And we're back amy. What is a myth? What's something 396 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: people think it's true you know to be false or 397 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: vice versa. I was talking to my mom about this 398 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: last weekend, and I think the myth of you can't 399 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: change a man you are so stupid, Like, of course, 400 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: of course we can change well, Like, don't you guys 401 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: feel like you've been changed by women pretty easily and willingly. 402 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: I think it's that's the thing is, you can't change 403 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: a man who has no willingness or openness to like, 404 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: I think love or anything. I think being in love 405 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: with somebody, if you're really good at it. You can, yeah, 406 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 1: you could, but I feel like I've done. I think 407 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: I've done the kinds of work out of the kinds 408 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 1: of ship where maybe somebody like you can't change a 409 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: man because I loved somebody and I realized I'm like, 410 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 1: oh yeah, Like it's not just they're saying I'm wrong 411 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,159 Speaker 1: or something, but like I can do better and in 412 00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 1: this relationship, I can, you know, move to a higher 413 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: plane through that. Uh yeah, so for sure. And also like, 414 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: let's be real on a superficial level, Oh my god, 415 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 1: how quickly I've changed. Because someone was like, do you 416 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 1: like Harry Potter? I'm like, yeah, Harry Potter, hardcore? Yeah, 417 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: for entertainment, not anymore. We're not allowed to see. And 418 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,879 Speaker 1: that's why I was on the wave before anybody, you know, entertainment, clothing, 419 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 1: the house decorations, you know, like all the decor. Yeah, 420 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: there's so many things that are so easily changed. Oh yeah, 421 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: I mean yes, I actually haven't heard that myth that 422 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,760 Speaker 1: you never heard someone say you can't change a man. 423 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I don't know why it's on 424 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: my mind because I've been thinking about Sam Rockwell not 425 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: wanting to have children, so much because I also don't 426 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 1: want to have children, but I want to have his 427 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,479 Speaker 1: and I'm I'm like working, I'm like working on it. WHOA, Okay, 428 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 1: so hold on you just your your policy shifted quite dramatically. 429 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: You went from I want to be childless to the 430 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: only reason I am on this earth but intentionally to procreate. 431 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: Is it is because of Sam Rockwell. Yeah, I would 432 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: have Sam Rockwell's babies. We would both have to change 433 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: our minds. But I do feel like I could. I 434 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: could do it, you know, I can change. I feel 435 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: like I could change any man. Really? Is that? Like? 436 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 1: Is that? Is that cocky? With enough rope and ether? 437 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: I mean anything? Finally, No, what's a myth? What's something 438 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: people think is true you know, to be false or 439 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: vice versa. Well, I don't know that a lot of 440 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: people think it's true. But I'll say, based on stories 441 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: and tweets that have been servicing over the last few weeks, 442 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: I would like to attack the myth head on that 443 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: white Jews are fake Jews that stole the identity of 444 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 1: the original Israelites. And I'm not even here to take 445 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: away Judaism or identity from anyone else. I'm not here 446 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 1: to say that the original Israelites were white, because we 447 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 1: all know that they weren't. The original Israelites and Hebrews 448 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: were absolutely black or brown. Um. But I, as an 449 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 1: Oscar Nazi Jew, have not here as a result of 450 00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: identity theft right right right? I am so truly and 451 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: Judio was more of the result of diaspora and expulsion 452 00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,439 Speaker 1: that led into Europe. Yeah. I like the way that 453 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: you phrase this, because do you mean what you know 454 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: doesn't say? No, man, you're not gonna go to a 455 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: barbershop with that top man, right Cotep Cotech, we what 456 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: a real Hebrew is?

I know people who work 461 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: at the radio station where Nick Cannon records the show, 462 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: and I used to work there Power one oh six, 463 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: And you know, I saw some people defending him and 464 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, what are you doing exactly? And they're like, well, 465 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: like him as a person, like he's getting me, And 466 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: I'm like, but the thing you have to understand is 467 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: what he said on his face is just just bold 468 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: anti Semitism, Like no, I'm not I'm not even coming 469 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: for Nick specifically, and not even that I'm just yet right. 470 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: But like all the statements that have been coming out 471 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: when it started with the Shawan Jackson's reposted with fake 472 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: Hitler quote, it's like, I can't speak for every Jew, 473 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,239 Speaker 1: but I know I was never bothered or offended by 474 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,640 Speaker 1: the idea that the original Hebrews were black. I don't 475 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: think anyone was arguing that or upset by that. I 476 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 1: was offended by the idea that the identity was then 477 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: stolen by white Jews who are using the Hebrew identity 478 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: to dominate the world through a Zionis global agenda. And 479 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm like, now you're tin foil hatchet right right right. 480 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 1: I will say, though, I think that in polarizing times, 481 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 1: we do start to see like our Jewish brothers and 482 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: sisters kind of come back out of the woodwork. Because 483 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 1: I won't lie, I do. I have felt at times 484 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: I want to articulate this in a way that's clear 485 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: and not offensive, but like some minorities have been able 486 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: to not be minorities at times, whereas I've never had 487 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: the privilege to do that. Um, and so I think 488 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 1: that some of the things that they're saying comes from 489 00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: this animosity of like, oh, we're not allowed to not 490 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: ever be minorities, like you know what I mean. But 491 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: it's articulated in a horrible way, and it's very anti Semitic, 492 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: and it's not even accurate, which is why it's so 493 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: embarrassing to see so many people defending it, because I 494 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: think where the real as comes from is that and 495 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 1: not from people stealing identities. Yeah, I mean, I will 496 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 1: say this, I don't think there's any question that both racism, 497 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: anti and anti Semitism exists. And I also don't think 498 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: there's any question that it's more difficult to be black 499 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 1: in America and arguably in the world than it is 500 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 1: to be Jewish in America. So, um, there's a lot 501 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 1: of layers to this discussion. I'll also say that I 502 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: think the Jewish community could have been better over several 503 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: decades of not resting on though we march with King 504 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: in the nineteen sixties, so we're always like, there's absolutely 505 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 1: ways that the Jewish community in general could have been 506 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: better allies over the years and over the decades with 507 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: the black community, not to say that there aren't Jews 508 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: or the Jewish community that has consistently been on that. 509 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: Like I would like to think that I have always 510 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: been a good ally to the black community, but I'm 511 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: just one person. But but that is a separate discussion 512 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: from the idea that white Jews aren't Jews at all. 513 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: Like we're talking about two different things, right, There's there's 514 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: absolutely validity to what you were saying, and I think 515 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: frustrations boil over and then discussions bleed into each other 516 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 1: and things get said that have nothing to do with 517 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: each other. But the myth I'm trying to dispel, I'm 518 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: trying to admit that was specificly Yeah, And I think 519 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,959 Speaker 1: even with a lot of the times where people were 520 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 1: coming out with those just those conspiracy theories. Uh, and 521 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: then when they had to realize they're like, oh, right, 522 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: what I said is dangerous and bad. Actually I don't 523 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: mean that. Then there was a secondary effect where people like, 524 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: why are you letting these white people silence you? And 525 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 1: then there was like there was another level of not 526 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: examining what was being said, and like this whole thing 527 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: was being reduced to like you see what happens when 528 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: you speak the truth, when it becomes like a snake 529 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 1: eating its tail, where it's like, okay, you say Jews 530 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 1: control the media. Then you get in trouble by Jews 531 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: or in the in the media, and all of a sudden, 532 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: Jews look bad for only out anti Semitism just because 533 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: they're using the media to call out anti Semitism that 534 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: was spread through it. So it's like damned if you do, 535 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: damned if you don't. Well, obviously, also, I think that 536 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 1: what people forget is that anti Semitism and the whispers 537 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: of Jewish people having control and power are literally what 538 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: sent Germany into the Holocaust. So it's like hate speech 539 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: is so dangerous and and you can't get upset with 540 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: people for silence stopping it immediately because it's killed people. 541 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 1: It's been so dangerous. I think you don't want to 542 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: look at it as like, oh, me saying that is 543 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: actually anti Semitism. I think it's like a very narrow 544 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: way to preserve your ego, to be like, what I 545 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: said is facts, and therefore what you can take from that, 546 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not interested in the nuance of 547 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: what I said that's what I said, right, and deeper 548 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 1: than that, I will say a lot of Jewish people 549 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 1: aren't even educated on Jewish history, to the point where 550 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 1: like anytime anti Semitism rises, Jewish people are always Holocaust, Holocaust, Holocaust. 551 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: But the truth is, there's been uh anti semitism that 552 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: has hurt Jewish people based on economic anti semitism or 553 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: the rumors of trying to dominate or control things since 554 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: the beginning of European civilization, and so it's like it's 555 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: been happening for way longer than before nineteen four and 556 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: so that's where it's dangerous. There's a historical precedent going 557 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: back to the eight hundred, nine hundred, fourteen hundred where 558 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: Jews were expelled from countries or attempted to be genocided 559 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: over the thought that they were controlling finances or you know, 560 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 1: the media or resources of the time. So that that's 561 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: where it gets historically dangerous. But that being said, Uh, 562 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: it's a tough time. A lot of people are frustrating, 563 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: and there's a lot of misdirected frustration and anger, and 564 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 1: I understand and also just because anti blackness is pervasive, 565 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:45,680 Speaker 1: so you know, I think a lot of that is 566 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: just reactionary behavior from people who don't understand that they're 567 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: talking about two completely different things. Um, and it's really disappointing. 568 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: Though I love that Nick Cannon apologize. I know you 569 00:32:56,400 --> 00:33:00,320 Speaker 1: weren't speaking specifically about him, but his apology felt very 570 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: I loved it. I loved it. Honestly. It was like 571 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: I wasn't sitting around waiting for an apology from anyone, 572 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: but I thought that his apology was incredibly authentic sincere 573 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 1: I was moved by it. I appreciated it. And uh, 574 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 1: and all I'll say to kind of wrap up this subject, 575 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 1: I don't want to dominate the show with this topic, 576 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: but I will say that one thing I've been very 577 00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: outspoken for is it's incredibly important that Jewish people out 578 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: there don't use this as an excuse not to continue 579 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: to support the black community and their fight for equality. 580 00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 1: I think it's really really important now more than ever 581 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 1: that Jews double down on their ally ships, support Black 582 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: Lives Matter, support black causes, and continue to build that 583 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: relationship as opposed to letting this be a bridge that 584 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 1: burns down. Absolutely. And also, we're not a monolith. We're 585 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 1: not all hoteps, Like yeah, I also, I also don't 586 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,600 Speaker 1: think the things that have been said a representative of 587 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:53,320 Speaker 1: the popular black communities thoughts. But the reason that kind 588 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: of amplified is there's it's being said by a lot 589 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: of black people who have large platforms. Over the last 590 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: few weeks, it's just intensive with black celebrities coming out, 591 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: and I'm saying, it's as a wild how many like 592 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: old hip hop people I've had to put down because 593 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: of that. I'm like, Damn, Pete Rock, I guess I 594 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:13,080 Speaker 1: will just reminisce over you now how you are embarrassing 595 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 1: embarrassing us. But also I want to say, no, that's 596 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: actually uh to just cap this um. When people offend 597 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: a specific group or you know, anyone, it's never the 598 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: responsibility of people who are their fans or whoever to 599 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: like accept their apology. So the fact that you said 600 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,240 Speaker 1: you read his apology and you thought it was sincere 601 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: to me means more than me thinking that because I 602 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 1: wasn't the person who was offended, you know what I mean? Yeah, 603 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 1: see moving forward in positivity and love? Well, yeah, I 604 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: think that's what that's really what's going on. I think 605 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 1: it just shows how fraught the whole environment is and 606 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: how tense everything is. And there's because it's palpable. I mean, 607 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 1: the aside from the financial, economic, and existential risks that 608 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: have already existed that are only being exacerbated by the pandemic. 609 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: Now they're we're attempting to have some kind of reckoning 610 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 1: with white supremacy and systemic racism in the country, on 611 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 1: top of like a thing where we're like, what's going 612 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: to happen in the election, is there's going to be 613 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 1: some kind of total funk fest? What what is going 614 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,600 Speaker 1: to happen? We just don't know. So, yeah, it's very 615 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: tense times, which is why we all got to just 616 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: take a second. Remember, you know, I got it. We're 617 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 1: on the same team most of the man most most 618 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: of the time, I would say, actually mostly yea the time, 619 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 1: unless you're in that one percent Husky Pomeranians. You guys 620 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: need to fucking stop with designer breeding. I don't know 621 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: who all you are, but I have seen too many 622 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,440 Speaker 1: fucking Husky Pomeranian mixes in my Craigslist searches for puppies 623 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: I will not adopt. Here's the fucking thing. When I 624 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: came on this podcast a few months ago to talk 625 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: about how I had chickens. Some people replied to let 626 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:58,799 Speaker 1: me know that roosters were extremely violent and would rape 627 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 1: and murder head um. And that's why, you know, you 628 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 1: had to have tremendous amounts of hens to one rooster 629 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: or else the rooster will just psycho crazy. I did 630 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: some research because this is very upsetting to me, and 631 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 1: I found out that this kind of aggression in roosters 632 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 1: is not natural and is the result of selective breeding. 633 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 1: It is that it is an unintended side effect of 634 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 1: selective breeding for other traits like being fast growing, having 635 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: large breasts, um, and uh like not you know, not 636 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 1: developing certain kinds of diseases. So the chickens that I have, 637 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 1: there is a very low probability number one that the 638 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 1: roosters will turn out to be as aggressive. But the 639 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: point is that when you selectively breed animals for certain traits, 640 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 1: you are also breeding for other traits, and usually those 641 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 1: traits are like you don't want neurological dysfunction. So that's 642 00:36:52,520 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 1: why that's why pure bred dogs are so much more 643 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: nervous and prone to developing different types of diseases than 644 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,799 Speaker 1: mutts you know or or you know like just dogs 645 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 1: that are inter bred dogs. But like and when it 646 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: comes to design or breeding, what you're doing, especially with 647 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 1: this absolute monstrosity that is the Husky Pomeranian. And let 648 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 1: me say this first of all, very cute, very cute, 649 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,239 Speaker 1: absolutely yeah, you're looking at what you're looking at here 650 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 1: is a mini mini husky. It's cute, but a Pomeranian 651 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:29,919 Speaker 1: is not a healthy dog and it is not good. Yeah, 652 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: all right, now think about its joint problem. Smiles that No, 653 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: I don't care nuts, it's it sucks because I'm like, well, cute, 654 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: little little husky puppy, and then I realized it's it's 655 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:49,399 Speaker 1: actually a fully grown Husky Pomeranian mix, and then kill me, dud. 656 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 1: Pugs can't give birth naturally like pugs. They have to 657 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:56,360 Speaker 1: have cesareans because they can't give birth vasionally because they're 658 00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 1: so bred. And like a friend who had a bulldog 659 00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: who was like, you know, they had to breathe that 660 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: flat ass face and it was like the end of 661 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,959 Speaker 1: its life was so horrific sounding. I'm like, your dog 662 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 1: is dying and it's like sucking up our mushroom high 663 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 1: in your backyard can do something that's the worst thing 664 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: to hear when you're high on mushrooms a dying dog 665 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: and yeah, and their eyes are watering and it's like, 666 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: please just help me, and I'm like tripping, so I'm like, yes, 667 00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 1: I will, sir, tell me where to take you selinaryea. 668 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 1: And what's really fucked up and and truly overrated about 669 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:42,800 Speaker 1: these dogs? It's like nobody's getting a husky Pomeranian people. 670 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:46,919 Speaker 1: People are breeding big dogs to be smaller so that 671 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,359 Speaker 1: they can get them in an apartment building that has 672 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:55,280 Speaker 1: weight limits, right, or travel with them for travel with them, 673 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 1: And that's really fucking shitty and it's really irresponsible. And 674 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: it is not okay to get a dog when you 675 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: cannot care for that dog. And it's even worse to 676 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 1: interbreed a dog and do designer breeding to get a 677 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: certain look and not think about the health of the 678 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: dog and the needs of the dog. And it just 679 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 1: makes me so fucking mad every time I see one 680 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: of these cute ass puppies and they're so cute and 681 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: they make me so upset. Right, you're like, what's going on? 682 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: Like I love this and then it's a tragedy, but 683 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: it's cute and I hate it and underrated and errated, right, 684 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: It's like I want to give it a little kiss 685 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: on its tiny little head, but then I'm just like, 686 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: huskies need to be bigger than that. Huskies need a 687 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 1: lot of room, you know, like they're especially especially in 688 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: l A. This is a thing with like people get 689 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:44,879 Speaker 1: huskies and they don't know how much work they are. 690 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: They're really smart dogs, They're really big. They're very good 691 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:49,720 Speaker 1: at getting out. You have to have a very high fence, 692 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: you know, like they were very strong prey instinct. And 693 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: I just can't tell you how many fucking ads I've 694 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:56,959 Speaker 1: seen of like we got a husky and we didn't 695 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 1: realize that we would need to walk every day. We 696 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 1: didn't realize, Yeah, we realize what it was. We didn't 697 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 1: google it, you know, so you know that, you know, 698 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,439 Speaker 1: just to like you be cultural historians, do we how 699 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 1: far back do we take this mini dog trend? Because 700 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: I feel like Paris Hilton made it like standard rich 701 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 1: person accessory, but all the way back to the Chinese 702 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:22,919 Speaker 1: emperor right right, right. But I'm thinking like in now, 703 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 1: like sort of how modern like the modernity and modernity 704 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 1: and how we're looking at it now, like how that's 705 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,879 Speaker 1: really sort of reasserted itself as like this like sort 706 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: of cross signifier almost too, where it's like, yeah, Paris 707 00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: putting a chihuahua in a purse was like a very 708 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:44,240 Speaker 1: big this is an accessory thing. Yeah right yeah, um, 709 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 1: and then yeah it is designer. It's being designed for 710 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 1: its looks and without any conception of what what the 711 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: what it's inside they're like or what the experience of 712 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: the people. Don't people don't just want to get chihuahuas 713 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 1: and naturally small dog because they're very nervous and their 714 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 1: heads are well, I like that big gas brain on them. 715 00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: The other thing about chiuaha is is they're way less 716 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: nervous in like the wild or when they're feral, because 717 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: they run in packs. They run in packs of like 718 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 1: eight or ten, and they can take down a coyote. 719 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:19,080 Speaker 1: So if you put a chiuawa with a bunch of 720 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 1: other chihuahuas, I mean immediately it's chaos. But then but 721 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 1: then later when they bond, they're like they help each 722 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:31,240 Speaker 1: other and that's why they're safer. Yeah, when a chiuawa 723 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,239 Speaker 1: is like barking all the time, it's because it's like, 724 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: I'm the only fucking chuawa here. Hello, Hello, You guys 725 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: aren't going to bite anyone. Yeah, let's take a quick 726 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:44,839 Speaker 1: break and we're going to be right back and get 727 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: into some stories. And we're back. What is something that 728 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: you think is underrated? Something that is underrated? Who that's 729 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: hard be? Is there something that you're enjoying that is 730 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: not popular? Or so many things? I'll say I'm underrated. 731 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: How come none of y'all have heard of me? I 732 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,959 Speaker 1: know all y'all listening to this, then I ain't been knowing, 733 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: you know, because I had this talk with the Global 734 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 1: Fashion Exchange and it was real and it was about 735 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 1: Black Lives matter. Because if you have me on, you 736 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:27,320 Speaker 1: can't be canceled. I cover all bases. It's like, okay, 737 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 1: we can talk about magic bullet. Yeah exactly. I'm like, 738 00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: ha ha, But I finally have advantage of my thanks. 739 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: Isn't that so? But isn't that so fucked up to 740 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:40,600 Speaker 1: think about? Though? Like I know, we're all have probably 741 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,879 Speaker 1: been approached, have had opportunities to do things, and it's 742 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:48,360 Speaker 1: on a wave of yeah, we got problems with the big, 743 00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: big product complexion or diversity in this campaign or this workplace, 744 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: and it it has like that fucked up way of 745 00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: fucking with you also of like damn, like my is 746 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:06,320 Speaker 1: this because I deserve it? Because people more powerful? Of course, 747 00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,240 Speaker 1: I mean I think yet look between all the therapy 748 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,800 Speaker 1: and books I've reading, I'm definitely not second guessing myself 749 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 1: like I used to anymore. But that is like this 750 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,440 Speaker 1: sort of secondary effect where they're like on one level, 751 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:16,960 Speaker 1: I think we all laugh where it's like, yeah, look 752 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:18,879 Speaker 1: at a lot of people about to get hired, get 753 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: raises and things like that, my African American. Yeah, but 754 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 1: half the time is not half ninety eight percent of 755 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 1: the time, it's done for the complete wrong reasons. And 756 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 1: I think we were talking about this at the very beginning. 757 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 1: While it's welcome because you need to do something it, 758 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 1: you also wanted to feel like it's because people are 759 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: also simultaneously understanding what the situation is in their part 760 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,560 Speaker 1: in helping, rather than like, okay, man, we look fucked up. 761 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:44,719 Speaker 1: But it's like a good thing though too. I'm just 762 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:48,359 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's a it's another element where 763 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:51,920 Speaker 1: even the as as you as we see opportunities for 764 00:43:51,960 --> 00:43:54,760 Speaker 1: diversity inclusion, there's some of a lot of the offers 765 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: are still kind of tainted in this way that don't 766 00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: feel like it's because we're actually moving forward in the 767 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 1: way we need to. And we'll get to that too 768 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 1: as we talk about. But as a scammer, I don't 769 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: care how I get through the door as long as 770 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: I get in there. And like we're we're all exceptional here, 771 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 1: we're exceptional Negro so when we get there, we're gonna 772 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 1: be exceptional. So it doesn't matter for me. I don't 773 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 1: worry as much about white folks intentions, just because as 774 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 1: much as I wish that the majority of white people 775 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: would be kind, I just you know, I'm from the 776 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: South and that's just not been my experience. And I 777 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:28,839 Speaker 1: still love the white folks in my life who are 778 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: friends and family. My mother right now is about to 779 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,280 Speaker 1: be published. She's completely redoing the HR and her company. 780 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,280 Speaker 1: She has everyone reading White Fragility, and they're not allowed 781 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: to do what about is ums, and they're not allowed 782 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 1: to like speak in certain ways, like when they're in 783 00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,399 Speaker 1: these big meetings, and like she's educating people and she's 784 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 1: also bringing them. She had a white man tell her 785 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 1: that his son, who is gay, had would not speak 786 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,240 Speaker 1: to him for more than five minutes on the phone, 787 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,440 Speaker 1: and then when he started reading White Fragility and she 788 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 1: started reforming the whole HR department, he said. He called 789 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:00,400 Speaker 1: his son and he was like, do you think I 790 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:01,880 Speaker 1: was racist because I voted for Trump? And he was 791 00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 1: like absolutely, That's why I don't talk to you, like 792 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,080 Speaker 1: you are a racist and you're against the rights of 793 00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 1: my people and what I need, and he said he 794 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: started crying. They had an hour and a half conversation. 795 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:13,399 Speaker 1: So I was like, you know, if you get rid 796 00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 1: of the racism in your life, you it does enhance 797 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 1: your life, like you free yourself from a kid to 798 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: put yourself in where you just think better than everyone else. 799 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:23,839 Speaker 1: And it also puts a big pressure on you where 800 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:25,879 Speaker 1: you have to be better than everyone else at the time. 801 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: Turn that ship off.

I said, and that is a 816 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 1: disservice because I'm not even rich. I'm the most famous 817 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 1: one in the world, and I'm not even rich because 818 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 1: y'all aren't diverse or inclusive at all.
