It's just something that shouldn't be done, like 30 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: why are we beating our kids? And like and then 31 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: people are quick to go to the Bible and say, oh, 32 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: you know, you know, they may spare the rod the towel, 33 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: but don't we all remember in school that the ride 34 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: means the rider corrections and not like necessarily disciplining with pain. 35 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: You know you but you know, you know that's something 36 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: we learn from our oppressor. You know, you know, That's 37 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, Like we need to stop it, 38 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,919 Speaker 1: Like there are people like that, you know, I whipped 39 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: her bud or I did there's what about sitting down 40 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: and speaking with your child, that's right.

I'm standing on the side 191 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: of the stage right and Jay Cole stuck in leg 192 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: up on the speaker and it ended up pulling off 193 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: the stage. I caught the speaker. We put the speaker 194 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: back on. Now, if you have seen it, you would 195 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: have known that whole chain of speakers would have fell off. 196 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 1: So okay, I just saved that from happening. The woman 197 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: sees me, yeah, she goes, uh, yeah, you don't belong 198 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: over here. You gotta you gotta go.

You know, I 203 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 1: could have pretended I was a part of the entourage, 204 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,839 Speaker 1: snuck back there. I didn't do anything like that. I 205 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: just waited quietly, um while you know, while going back 206 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,719 Speaker 1: and forth and working, and the same miserable worker came over, 207 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: where do you belong? Oh you don't belong here? Now 208 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: report more than me and a whole bunch of nonsense. 209 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: But you could just tell, man, she was just a 210 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: miserable person and she wanted to pass that on to 211 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: whoever else. You know. Now you're leaving out the part 212 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 1: where you was trying to slip J Cole your mixtape, 213 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: and you're telling J Cole you rapped on I just 214 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,599 Speaker 1: said that. He said that wasn't a mixtape, and and 215 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: I don't get down. You just said shoot your shot. 216 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: I didn't want to. I didn't want it. That could 217 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: go any that could mean anything. You said shot. She's 218 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 1: a manager. But was she a manager? No, she wasn't 219 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 1: a manager because because she could have gotten in trouble. 220 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 1: Maybe Jay Cole's people would have called. I respect that. 221 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: It was just the way she went about it. The 222 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: way she went about it was just nasty and Charlo Man, 223 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: come on, I'm shooting my shot up with you on 224 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,199 Speaker 1: these men.

You said you wanted to shot my artists 226 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: before I said that you shot. I'm worried about I 227 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: don't know what kind of picture you wanted to paint, 228 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: but I was. But where Okay, I got a question, 229 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: where are you? Where are you? Not where you were 230 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: supposed to be? Though he wasn't you know, he was 231 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 1: somewhere else. No, No, I wasn't. I wasn't where I 232 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: was supposed to be. I mean like, it's not like 233 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: I was making a disruption or or like I went 234 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: about it like you know, I work in production, so 235 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 1: I'm try not to invade people's face. I get it. Yeah, 236 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: but she was, she was. She was security. But I 237 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 1: will say, out of every venue that I've ever been to, 238 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 1: any any concert hall or any arena, the ball layers 239 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: usually the nicest people I've ever been to a lot 240 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: of people, the black lads. This is the nicest place. 241 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: I was surprised because at the at the Garden that 242 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: that like that.

We 249 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in 250 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: the building. Yes, indeed we have doctor Cameron Weett. Welcome Brubbo, 251 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 1: Thanks so much for happening. How you doing. He's the 252 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: Senior Policy Advisor for Equity on White House COVID nineteen 253 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,719 Speaker 1: task for What does that mean? Yeah, that's the first 254 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 1: question I asked when when the administration asked me to 255 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 1: come in in this role, Because equity means different things 256 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: to different people. But I think from my perspective, and 257 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 1: I think the perspective of the Vice President of the President, 258 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: it's making sure that everyone in every community has the 259 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: opportunity to achieve their best health, and in this pandemic, 260 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: it means not just to survive, but hopefully thrive. You know, 261 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: it's been a tough moment for they're attaching that word 262 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 1: equity to a lot of things. I don't know if 263 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: they should be attaching that word equity too. You saw 264 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,440 Speaker 1: what happened last week when they or they when they 265 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: said it was crackpipes, but it was say smoking supply, kitch, 266 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. Syringes and all that, 267 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: and they attached racial equity to that too. Why do 268 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: you attaching equity to all these things? Different things become 269 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 1: buzzwords at different times, right, And I think then for 270 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: a long time we talked about disparities and equalities, and 271 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 1: now I think people are focused on this notion of 272 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 1: equity and appropriately so, right, equity means that you know, 273 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: you're not doing the same thing for everybody, but you're 274 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,040 Speaker 1: finding ways to write systemic inequalities that have exists it 275 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: over time. And to do that you have to make 276 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 1: sure that you tailor strategies in different directions. So I 277 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: think that's the notion that's it's an underpinning of a 278 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: lot of what the administration aims to do. But as 279 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,599 Speaker 1: much as it's a it's an animating principle for the administration, 280 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: it's a buzzword that a lot of people attack otherwise. 281 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: And I think that's why the piece with the crack 282 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: pipes it was it was just a straight up attack, 283 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: you know, not for good reasons. So what's the COVID 284 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: nineteen task force? What is that task for us? Because 285 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: it seems like you know, we've been we say one thing, 286 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 1: and we bring it back. Then we say another thing 287 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: that we say, ohs, we were wrong, then we say 288 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: something that it changes so much. So what is the 289 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen task for us? What is it supposed to do? Yeah, 290 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: so on the in the White House COVID Response Team, 291 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: it's really kind of the core entity coordinating across government. 292 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: So you know, um, there are a couple of different 293 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: pieces and when you mentioned task force, there there was 294 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: a Health Equity Task Force specifically on the way that 295 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: the President initiated and doctor Marcella Una Smith was leading that. 296 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: So their role over the course of twenty twenty one 297 00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: was to convene experts, work with communities, really identify what 298 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: is going to help us to really accomplish this goal 299 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: of health equity, health equity specifically within the context of 300 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: the pandemic. And so they issued their final report in November. 301 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: So that was the health equity task for us. The 302 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: COVID Response Team is more so just the quarterback of 303 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: the effort. So we work with CDC, we work with 304 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: you know, all the different pieces of HHS. We work 305 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: with other components of the White House and other agencies 306 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: to say what is it that we can do that 307 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: we can leverage from your agency, your office to help 308 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: advance the goals of really eliminating our addressing this pandemic. 309 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: Now we see cases dropping all across the country, but 310 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,680 Speaker 1: they say it's still higher than they were at this 311 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: time last year. So what is this? Has herd immunity 312 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: kicked in though? What is it? Well, you know, I 313 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: think OMICRON was a unique monster, you know, I mean 314 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: it showed up and we just saw cases spike. And 315 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: I work clinically in the hospital, so I work as 316 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: an internal medicine doctor, and you know, even on the floor, 317 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: we just started seeing record numbers of patients coming in. 318 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 1: And these were folks who had navigated this pandemic for 319 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 1: a year and a half and then all of a 320 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: sudden coming in sick with COVID. And I think that 321 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: you see the cases spike, you know, I dug into 322 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: the data and they really peaked among you know, black folks, 323 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: eighteen at thirty nine in Southern States. And I think 324 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: you see the combination of the lack of mitigation measures 325 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: like masks, like you know, some of the physical distancing 326 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: and avoiding crowded indoor spaces, the impact of the booster effort, 327 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: right because when you're disproportionality with boosters, then you see 328 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: that manifest in the hospitalization race. So the cases were concerning, 329 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: hospitalizations were really concerning. We had four times the hospitalization 330 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: rate in the black community just over the last few weeks. 331 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: And so when I hear people saying the pandemic's over, 332 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: I'm just like, I don't know what pandemic you're watch 333 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: but you know, it's it's hard to you know, all 334 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: the stuff that they're talking. But then you see certain 335 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: governors in certain states and they're taking the mass mandates off, 336 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: and you know, even the airports when you're flying. At 337 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: one time, you know, there was a middle, there was 338 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: a seat between everybody for social distancing. Now they're cramming 339 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: people in, like Saldines like, so what do what should 340 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: people believe? Because they change things so much. They do 341 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: in a couple of things. Whereas people say, you know, 342 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: they change recommendations a lot, and that's true, just the 343 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: same way the weather man changes the recommendations of what 344 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: you should wear in December verses June. Right, I think 345 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: the environment changes and that's why recommendations change along with it. 346 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: But that being said, you know, I don't want to 347 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: lean into like false equivalency. You say, this is what's 348 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: happening in hospitals, therefore what's happening in communities. You know. 349 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 1: I'll give the example from my own family. I have 350 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: two kids, one six, one is ten. Right for my 351 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: two kids, even if the governor in Virginia is saying, oh, 352 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,400 Speaker 1: kids don't need to wear masks, my kids are gonna 353 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: be wearing masks. And the reason isn't just that it's 354 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: going to protect their health and well being. It's that 355 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 1: my wife's an emergency dot with the work she does 356 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: and the work that I do, we can't afford for 357 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: our kids to be out of school for five to 358 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 1: ten days because they caught COVID, right, So we're gonna 359 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: do everything we can to protect them. And I think 360 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: for people who can't afford to miss work for a 361 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: week and a half, keep your kids protected, right like 362 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: this is these are mitigation strategies that are rooted in 363 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: public health. That just makes sense. And so while some 364 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: governors are relaxing these mandates, the thing I keep reminding 365 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: people is that nobody's saying you cannot wear masks. What 366 00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: they're saying is that they're not mandating masks in or spaces. 367 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: But like Floyd Mayweather said, protect yourself at all times, right, 368 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: Like you really have to have that mentality in this work. 369 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: All Right. We had more with doctor Cameron Webb coming 370 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:13,360 Speaker 1: up on the Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club, Breakfast Club, 371 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: and we are sitting here with doctor Cameron Webb, DJ Envy. 372 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: What's your thoughts on mandating the vaccine? You know, some 373 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: people if they don't have the vaccine, their jobs are firing. 374 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: And what's your thoughts on that? Well, you know, I 375 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 1: think if you look back at work requirements for instance, 376 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 1: you know, we put those in place last summer, and 377 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 1: and my first thought on it is I was like, well, 378 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 1: there's a lot of reason. Sometimes it's rooted in people's confidence. 379 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 1: We have to do the hard work of really talking 380 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: to folks. We had ninety million people who weren't vaccine 381 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 1: at that point in time. You fast forward six months, 382 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: seven months, and we're down at thirty million. Sixty million 383 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: people were vaccinated in that time just from those requirements, 384 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: and then omicron hit, right, And when Omicron hit, we 385 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: had far fewer hospitalizations in depth than we would have 386 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 1: had but for those vaccinations. You know, you look at 387 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 1: things like the flu. We have about fifty percent of 388 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 1: people nationwide who get the flu vaccine. It's not mandating 389 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: forty percent of black folks. But you look at COVID, 390 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: eighty four percent of black people have gotten a COVID vaccine, 391 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: and so you know, and as eighty five percent of 392 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: white people, eighty six percent of Latin individuals. So this 393 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: is unprecedented levels not only a vaccination rates, but of 394 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: equity in terms of those vaccination rates. And I look 395 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: at that and I say, it's not just numbers. Those 396 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: are lives saved. Those are people who aren't in my hospital. 397 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,160 Speaker 1: So so you know, as a as a physician, I'll 398 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 1: tell you I'm glad more people are protected than I 399 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: would have been the case. I think that, you know, 400 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,880 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court made the decision they made on work requirements, 401 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: but I think that at the end of the day, 402 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 1: these requirements have saved lives and they work. And for 403 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 1: people who get protected, you know that that benefit of 404 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: cruise over time they had that immunologic protection. They care 405 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: with them every single day. What your thoughts on kids 406 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,719 Speaker 1: getting the vaccination? You know, I got six, so at 407 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: first I was a little scared, a little nervous because 408 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 1: you know, I just felt like it wasn't tested enough 409 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: for children. I did get it for my older kids, 410 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: but you know, it was still a little nerve wracking. Yeah. Well, 411 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: so I mentioned I have a six year old and 412 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: a ten year old, and I remember when my daughter 413 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: Avery was born. I'm a whole doctor, right, And I 414 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 1: remember first time they showed up to put a shot 415 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: in her arm. I was like, hold, oh wait, you know, 416 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 1: like she's she's straight from God, Like, you know, this 417 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: child hadn't been touched by anything. Now you're starting to 418 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 1: put shot. But again, I had to remind myself, this 419 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: is part of my being a good parent. It's making 420 00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: sure we're using all the tools we have of today 421 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: to protect her from the worst of what can happen. 422 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: You know, those same two kids, they got vaccinated as 423 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: soon as possible from COVID, And in large part it 424 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: was because for my wife and I, we work on 425 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: the front lines in the hospital. We were always worried 426 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 1: about bringing something home to those kids, you know, And 427 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: so I think that you know, from our perspective, there 428 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: there was a process that led us to that decision. 429 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: We don't just follow go with the flow. We said, well, 430 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 1: where's the data, And if you dig into the data, 431 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: the data on kids five to eleven was fantastic. Remember 432 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 1: that the dose for adults for fires or for instance, 433 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 1: was thirty micrograms. For kids it was ten micrograms. It's 434 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 1: one third of the dose reduced the side effects significantly. 435 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,880 Speaker 1: And in the side effects, I'm talking about headaches, I'm 436 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: talking about muscle pain and stuff like that. My kids 437 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: didn't have any of that when they got vaccinated. But 438 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: even a step farther you realize that it's really effective 439 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: because kids have a really robust immune system. So not 440 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: only was it you know, safer from a side effects standpoint, 441 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: but it was just as as good the immunogenicity of 442 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 1: of promoting a good immunologic response. And so from that, 443 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, my kids are getting the best of two 444 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 1: worlds here. And what's crazy is that, you know, when 445 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: omicron hit and kids all across their school are getting COVID, 446 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: my kids were fine through it, right because they wear masks, 447 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,719 Speaker 1: because they were vaccinated. That's those are layers of protection 448 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: that were grateful for. Well, even that information was kind 449 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:28,919 Speaker 1: of confusing because I remember when they was telling us, 450 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,479 Speaker 1: you know, COVID doesn't affect kids at all. And then 451 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: it was just like just all of a sudden one 452 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: day it was like, you gotta go out there and 453 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: get your kids vaccinated. Yeah, you gotta. What I always 454 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 1: tell people is, um, you know, don't you gotta. You 455 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: gotta listen to the messenger, Right, don't let people tell 456 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: tell the story because I they say it's not affecting kids. Sure, 457 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: it was affecting black kids. You know, you look at 458 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: the rate of deaths. There were more deaths and black 459 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 1: children than they were white children, several times more. Right, 460 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: COVID wasn't the top ten causes of death for kids 461 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: before the vaccines came out. So people will create a 462 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 1: narrative just to further their their point. But the truth 463 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: of the matter, COVID has affected kids this entire time, 464 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: and not only just that. No, it's it's context, right, 465 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: It's not these aren't lies. Like the context is that 466 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: people say, are we seeing kids in ICUs to the 467 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: same rate that we're seeing seventy five year olds? No? Right, 468 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: But I think for a lot of like people like 469 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: to boil things down into really simple terms. This really 470 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: complex concepts, right, But there are a few things So today, 471 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 1: if you ask me what's the risk of of COVID 472 00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: nineteen versus the flu and kids, I would say, in 473 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: terms of severe illness the relatively similar. But in terms 474 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: of long COVID I don't know. And one thing I 475 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: want to protect my kids from are the lingering and 476 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,239 Speaker 1: long term effects of COVID, right, So, so those are 477 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: things where it's like. And also remember data continues to evolve. 478 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: We continue to get new information as this pandemic goes on. 479 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,639 Speaker 1: So the information that Vauci had back in March of 480 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty versus March twenty one versus next month in 481 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: March of twenty two completely differently. You're saying that in 482 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: March twenty twenty, the information he dispensed could have been 483 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 1: considered misinformation. Now I think it would be considered information 484 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: that has that has been updated, right, Because if in 485 00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 1: March twenty twenty we had just started to see cases, 486 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: by twenty one, we had seen cases, but we hadn't 487 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: seen what vaccines we're going to be able to do, 488 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: and we hadn't seen some of these some of these variants. 489 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 1: And now in March of twenty two, we've seen variants, 490 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 1: We've seen two years worth of effects of it, because 491 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,120 Speaker 1: but there's just way more information. And I think that's 492 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: that's the thing. People. There's not a lot of grace 493 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: in our society for that, you know, But I think 494 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: that if you're a scientist, when the way you look 495 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: at this, you're like, of course we're gonna learn stuff 496 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: over time. Of Course we're gonna get new data. Of 497 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: course there's gonna be new articles. Of course that's going 498 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 1: to update the way we treat people. That's that's science, ye, 499 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 1: I mean said I mean at one point five you 500 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: said don't wear a mask. He said mask only for 501 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,879 Speaker 1: health professional. And I think people see that and you 502 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: know what you're what you're speaking to is kind of 503 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: how that undermines some confidence, right for everybody who's keeping 504 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: track and has a list of you said this this 505 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: day and then that change. You know, they're just like, 506 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can trust you. It's funny. 507 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: I did some focus groups working with the Department Health 508 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: and Human Services on unvaccinated young black people. I was like, 509 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 1: what are your reasons? What are you concerned about it? 510 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 1: And they're like, well, people keep saying different things. I 511 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: don't feel like I can trust government. I don't feel 512 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: like I can trust any politicians, and we're like, well, 513 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: who do you feel like you can trust? People? Saying nobody, 514 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: that's really and it's just like that's that's that's so disappointing, 515 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: you know, and it's it is real. But at the 516 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 1: same time, you know, I think about the work I've 517 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 1: done a community long before I was in government, and 518 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: the way that community members look to me then and 519 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: continue to look to providers in their own community. They'll 520 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 1: say they don't trust anybody, but they'll know the local doctor, 521 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: the person who's like in the neighborhood. They'll be like, 522 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: let me call up so and so and find out 523 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 1: what's real. Right. We still have that dynamic. We know 524 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,159 Speaker 1: the local trusted messengers make the difference. But I think 525 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 1: that's what happens when you're communicating like nationally, for something 526 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,680 Speaker 1: that's very local, very individual, not everything applies to one person. 527 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: All right. We had more with doctor Carmon Webb coming 528 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: up on The Breakfast Club. The Breakfast Club, Your mornings 529 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: will never be the same. Dinight gets to highly anticipate 530 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: in new CW series All American Homecoming, Rising Tennant stalls 531 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: simonehis takes the next step by leaving the man she 532 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 1: loves to begin her new life at Bringston University, where 533 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: excellence is a way of life.

It's the 539 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: dract this club and we are sitting here with doctor 540 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: Cameron Webb. It's DJ. I was gonna ask, you know, 541 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: we talk about the healthcare workers and when COVID first happened, 542 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: the pandemic first happened, a lot of them were on 543 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: the front lines. There was no vaccine and a lot 544 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: of them died, a lot of them lost their life, 545 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: a lot of them went in the work and not 546 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,239 Speaker 1: knowing what's gonna happen. Now fast forward a little bit. 547 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 1: Now they're saying if a lot of them don't get 548 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: their vaccination, they're gonna be fired. What do you say 549 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 1: to that? Because they put their lives on the line 550 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 1: when there was no vac I am them, you're talking 551 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,120 Speaker 1: about talking about me. But then some of them people 552 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: didn't and they don't believe in it, they don't want to. 553 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 1: But now we just fired them and just throw them away. 554 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: But before they were beyond them. We love them. They 555 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: were heroes and that was like, oh, you're gone, and 556 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,119 Speaker 1: see it. And again, let's let's tell the facts, right, 557 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: because people will try to tell you a story. Over 558 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: ninety eight percent of healthcare workers have vaccinated. Right, It's 559 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 1: a great majority of healthcare workers of vaccinated. And this 560 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 1: isn't new to us. Every single year they make me 561 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: get what my flu shot? If I don't have my 562 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,439 Speaker 1: flu shot, I got to talk to somebody. That's a problem. 563 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 1: Every time the flu shot has been tested, it's been tried, 564 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: it's yearly, fully FDA approved. This COVID vaccine is fully approved. 565 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 1: Right And if you so, if you ask me that 566 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,000 Speaker 1: question January of last year, and you're like, oh, these 567 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: are new vaccines, I'd give you that. I'd grant you that. Right. 568 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: We're talking about a vaccine that passed the same gold 569 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: standard as the diabetes medicine you use, the asthma medicine 570 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: you use. You don't think twice before you take a 571 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: puff of that albut role. But this is a vaccine 572 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: that has passed that rigorous evaluation process, right, And so 573 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: I think for a lot of people, it's not because 574 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: the data on the vaccines themselves is a little shaky. 575 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: It's because of this narrative that's been weaved for the 576 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: last year and a half that just undermines a lot 577 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: of public confidence. We have those conversations. I think at 578 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:54,679 Speaker 1: the end of the day, there are people who are 579 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: always going to make decisions that they think is in 580 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: their best interest, and if that impacts their employment, that's 581 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: the decision to make, right. But at the end of 582 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,160 Speaker 1: the day, as a healthcare worker, I know that it's 583 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: not mine. I don't have the right to bring illness 584 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: in when people are sick. Right, the patients I was 585 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: taking care of over the weekend, those individuals who were 586 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: already sick, I can't bring COVID to them. My coworkers 587 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:17,880 Speaker 1: who are working their butts off for the last two years, 588 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: I can't get them sick with COVID after they've been 589 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: doing everything to protect themselves, just because they're in the 590 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: physicians lines with me and I happen to have COVID, right, 591 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: so we have to create safe environments and healthcare spaces. 592 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 1: That's not new to COVID. That's something we've always held. 593 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,639 Speaker 1: People politicize it more. It's more charged than COVID. And 594 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: you've got three hundred thirty million people who were talking 595 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: about intervening all right now in this moment. Whereas for 596 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: some other things. If it's your measles, most of rubella vaccine, 597 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 1: everybody got that when they got it. Tetness, they got 598 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: that when they got it. Right, this is all at once, 599 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 1: and that's what creates this kind of frenzy, all at once. 600 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 1: What do you say to people who feel like, oh, well, 601 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: you know there's people out there getting the vaccine, but 602 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: they're still catching COVID and they're still getting sick and 603 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: you can still pass you know, the vaccine, which was 604 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,200 Speaker 1: another thing that you could say was misinformation because people 605 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: told us that couldn't happen. It's heartbreaking, and you know, 606 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: I think that that's one of the things that is 607 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: so frustrated to me because on the front end, you know, 608 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: I was one of those hopeful people right when I 609 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: got vaccining on December seventeenth of twenty and twenty. I 610 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: was hopeful that this was going to prevent me from 611 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: getting COVID, you know, forevermore Right, that's just not what 612 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: the data ended up bearing out. What the studies did 613 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 1: for that vaccine is they said, I'm much less likely 614 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: to be hospitalized or die from COVID. But we said, 615 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: but I'm also less likely to transmit it or to 616 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: get COVID as well. Ultimately, I think a couple of 617 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: things blew the lid off that you look at omicron, 618 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: so many people were getting COVID. Again, I'm always reminded 619 00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 1: how many people would have died from COVID if it 620 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: weren't for vaccines, or you know, the primary endpoint of 621 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 1: those studies was looking at death in hospitalization. We still 622 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: saw a lot of hospitalization, but those hospitalizations would have 623 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: been deaths, right, Those cases would have been hospitalizations. The 624 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: benefit of the vaccines has it limited the severity of 625 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: the illness. And that's just part of it, right, I think, 626 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: you know, I look at other pieces. You know, there 627 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: are conversations that we have because we feel like, oh, 628 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: we're all we're all healthy and well, there are people 629 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: walking around who look just like you and me, who 630 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: are living there everyday lives, but they also are immune compromise. 631 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: They're also dealing with a new cancer diagnosis. Part of 632 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: our obligation, our responsibilities to keep in mind there are 633 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: folks who don't have the benefit of all the opportunities 634 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: we have to work from home, who don't have the 635 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: benefit of some of the different medications or the you 636 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: know and whatnot. And for them, this idea of vaccines, 637 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: it's truly life saving for them. And if as a 638 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: society we're not taking care of, or thinking about, or 639 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 1: prioritizing the ability to keep society saved, that's a problem, right, 640 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: and especially in the black community. Right, fourteen percent of 641 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: us are disabled. In the black community, we carry more 642 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: chronic medical conditions. So when we see even vaccinated folks 643 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 1: now who are being hospitalized. You know over the age 644 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: of sixty five, the Black individuals over sixty five carry 645 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: more chronic illness into that. And what's your thoughts on 646 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 1: the COVID pill. I know, we know we how to 647 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 1: go the COVID pill, the new poil. They're saying, what's 648 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: your thoughts on that? Well, you know, we're in New York. 649 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: It's a different station here. I think it is ninety 650 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 1: percent reduction in hospitalization and mortality, So it's really beneficial. 651 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 1: So what is the COVID pill for people that don't know. 652 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: So there are two of them right now, one called 653 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: Monoperevier from Murk, one called packs of It from Visor. 654 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: The packs of It we so as a government, we 655 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: got twenty million doses of that, right so that was 656 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: a big deal. What it does is it makes it 657 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: so you take that pill within five days of getting 658 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: a COVID diagnosis, it decreases you're likely at a hospitalization 659 00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: in death. Now the people who should take it are 660 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: folks who are at risk for severe disease, so have 661 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: different chronic conditions, things that put them at increased risk. 662 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: You know. One of the big things is making sure 663 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: that right now, it takes a while to make those drugs. 664 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 1: This strugg didn't even exist, wasn't even dreamed up this 665 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: time last year. So the Visor is actively making these pills, 666 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: but in the meantime we have very few of them. 667 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: So what New York has done is they said we're 668 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: going to prioritize the risk factors that put people a 669 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 1: great risk for severe COVID. One of them being raised 670 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: in the city right and that's created a store because 671 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: everything's politicized because people take that and they say, oh, 672 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: now you're discriminating against white people. Knows, anybody who has 673 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,960 Speaker 1: a risk factor that puts them at severe risk, at 674 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: risk for severe COVID should have access to these medications. 675 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: They can save their lives, keep them out of the hospital. 676 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: So so I think that this has the potential to 677 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: be huge because then what we focus on is getting 678 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 1: people tested, and that's why we have COVID test stock 679 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: Gov and we're getting tests out to people. That's why 680 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: private insurance is requiring tests, Medicare is getting tested people, 681 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: Medicaid is getting tested people, making sure people can know 682 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 1: whether or not they have COVID and go from there 683 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 1: and get the treatments in Do you, um, well, I 684 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: know you gotta go with you. Do you think there's power? 685 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: And just simply saying I don't know absolutely? You know 686 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: if you if you've been a physician for any period 687 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: of time, that's critical. You know, my barbershop in Charlottesville 688 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: is called the Barber's then, and every time I go there, 689 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: like sit down in the chair. You know how the 690 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 1: barbershop is, They're just like cam I got a question 691 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: and people just start, you know, rapid firing around the shop. 692 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: And what's interesting is so often I'm just like, I 693 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: don't know the answer to that. Right. That inspires confidence 694 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: because then they know that what I'm saying, if I 695 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: tell them something that's factual, they're just like, I trust 696 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: him because when he doesn't know, he says, I don't know. 697 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: That's something you have to learn to do. Some people 698 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: aren't comfortable doing it, but I think that at the 699 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 1: end of the day, that's it's for encouraging inspiring confidence 700 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: for people, especially in this era of you know, there's 701 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: always a camera in your face, you know what I mean, 702 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 1: Like if you're putting somebody on TV every day, they 703 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: gotta say something. So sometimes I can say I don't know, 704 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: that's right, that's right, or doctor camera where we appreciate 705 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: you for joining us and thank you for spitting some 706 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 1: facts for sure, Come up anytime, man, We'll do all right. 707 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 1: It's a breakfast Club.

I think that Mary was supposed to 722 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: wear it and she didn't. And they fit me and 723 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: I asked for it and a girl like me, and 724 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: so I got it. Really, don't mean my power people 725 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: at the wardrobe people not they'll be asking for it. Jadabits, 726 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: don't fitty somebody? Now, well, yes it is. Now. First 727 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 1: of all, I've been really actually very good.

But other than that, I can't 733 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 1: I really can't complain how the concert has been because 734 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: I know a lot of comedians are saying that some 735 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 1: of the shows haven't been asked pack because some of 736 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: the venues are making people wear masks or have to 737 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 1: be vaccinated. So a lot of people that they said 738 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 1: it wasn't like before. So how was it? Were you 739 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: going out back there on the road. We haven't had 740 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:17,480 Speaker 1: a problem like that, you did, Cat Williams, lou Now Curry. 741 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 1: They don't allow you know, packed houses and they made 742 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: people we mask. Well, whatever they're doing, our audience is 743 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,720 Speaker 1: doing it and doing it well. I love the community 744 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: that you know, you and Kat and Red Yell always 745 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: go on tour together. Well, we were on tour together 746 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,399 Speaker 1: fifteen years ago on his first tour, right when people 747 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 1: were starting to transition him from Money Mike into the 748 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 1: Kat Williams, you know. And for us to be back 749 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: on tour together again fifteen years later, I don't even 750 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: know that I've heard of anybody doing that. Wow, you know. 751 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: And then there's an Oakland connect action with all this, 752 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: because Mark Curry is from Oakland, like as is Laura 753 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: Hayes and Paul Mooney. I'm from Oakland. I met Red 754 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: in Oakland and I met Kat in Oakland. Wow, so 755 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: we are And me and Cat been knowing each other 756 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:18,319 Speaker 1: since we have a kid the same age, and uh, 757 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: he's been done me since my daughter's probably four. Wow. Wow. 758 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: I saw you on the Amazon Doctor fat TUZI. Yeah, 759 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 1: the era of hip hop comedy, and he talked about her. 760 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:31,760 Speaker 1: You know, Black comedians had to form their own community, 761 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,320 Speaker 1: you know, when Hollywood wasn't given them a look. What 762 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,840 Speaker 1: was what was that experience like in that era? I 763 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: think that was really empowering because we were not city 764 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 1: waiting for them. They weren't coming where we were. We 765 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 1: did our own thing and then they came there and 766 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: we were doing it whether they came or not. You know, 767 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: we were doing it far as So this is comedy 768 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: with no money. Don't forget. There's no such thing as 769 00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 1: money in comedy at our level. We'd looked up to 770 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 1: the Eddies and stuff like that, but there was no 771 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,880 Speaker 1: you know, Guy was coming up, Joe was coming up, 772 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: Jamie was coming up, DL was coming up. We was 773 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: all coming up to this like era. I've never been 774 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: part of an era before, I mean the sexual seventies. 775 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:19,240 Speaker 1: Of course I was there, but I'm talking about, you know, professionally, 776 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: and it was really exciting because the hustle was a 777 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: different type of heat. You know, we didn't have social media. 778 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: To social media was you need to see that money 779 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 1: and that was it. If somebody told you, then you 780 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: go see them and to see a word of mouth 781 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: builds like that. It's like watching the wave at a 782 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: baseball game. You know. I was gonna ask, you know, 783 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: you you speak with whatever, whatever's on your mind, and 784 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 1: you come from an eraware comedian sport what's on their mind? 785 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 1: Or you ever nervous about cancel culture? Do you watch 786 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,439 Speaker 1: what you see now at all? I would be lying 787 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 1: if I said I didn't. I don't want to sound hockey, 788 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: but I really sort of can't be canceled because too 789 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,399 Speaker 1: many people love me. I would have to, like Melissa Child, 790 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:06,919 Speaker 1: let's do something really hideous to lose all my fans. 791 00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 1: I got fans from where I used to live, and 792 00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 1: I got fans from when I used to be girls 793 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: got leaders, and I got fans. It's gonna ride with me. 794 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 1: Whatever they say. I've been drug you know. I've been 795 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,879 Speaker 1: drug in social media before, and I find that, first 796 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:23,919 Speaker 1: of all, you can't be cyber bullied if you don't 797 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:29,720 Speaker 1: read the right for two days. That usually all scandals 798 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: only last for the eight hours or something. To the 799 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,359 Speaker 1: naxt scandal, you know, you gotta go on, it's gonna end. 800 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: It's silly to me, though, because I feel like man 801 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: comedians have a different license than everybody else. Always have, 802 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 1: you know, and always should have that. So it's just 803 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: weird to me when people get mad about things comedians. Well, 804 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:49,080 Speaker 1: first of all, when I say I do think about something, 805 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 1: I do think about them, and then I usually go 806 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: ahead and do whatever the I was gonna do anyway, 807 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 1: because when people who come to see me, they came 808 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: to see me, they want to know my perspective. They 809 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: didn't just I don't. I get new fans every day, 810 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,320 Speaker 1: but they're pale in comparison to the people that have 811 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,759 Speaker 1: been riding with me for the whole thirty years. I 812 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 1: was gonna ask, are you familiar with the metaverse? You know, 813 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 1: I smoke weed, and so that's the only verse that 814 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 1: I know about. I don't really with the metaverse place 815 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 1: right exactly, Hollywood, but they possibly could start charging people 816 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: like if you harass somebody in the middle verse, like 817 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 1: if you hey, smack somebody in the ass or your 818 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: ass look big or something like that, they can possibly 819 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,879 Speaker 1: maybe press charge.

They got bourbon screech chicken, 1289 01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:54,400 Speaker 1: they got fried chicken, they got fried fish, big fish 1290 01:04:54,440 --> 01:04:59,040 Speaker 1: pot rolls, they got carved vote in turkey pot pies, 1291 01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:03,280 Speaker 1: Golden Karls pot pies. All right, there's too much there 1292 01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:05,200 Speaker 1: for y'all to choose from. For y'all to be fighting 1293 01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:08,120 Speaker 1: over steaks. See, the problem is y'all didn't eat enough 1294 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:10,440 Speaker 1: yeast rolls before you went to work on the buffet. 1295 01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:12,880 Speaker 1: You have to eat at least one, no more than 1296 01:05:12,960 --> 01:05:15,400 Speaker 1: two yeast rolls at the buffet and drink it with 1297 01:05:15,480 --> 01:05:17,120 Speaker 1: a glass of water. Because when you eat the yeast 1298 01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:19,400 Speaker 1: roll and drink the water, it expands in your stomach 1299 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 1: and keeps things like steak shortages from ruining your experience. Okay, 1300 01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:25,680 Speaker 1: it keeps things like that from happening because when your 1301 01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:28,520 Speaker 1: stomach is full, Okay, you won't eat as much. Now 1302 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:31,160 Speaker 1: I knew y'all might think I'm joking ninety five percent 1303 01:05:31,240 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 1: of the time. Okay, but you have to understand what 1304 01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 1: places like Golden Corral mean to some individuals. Right now, 1305 01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:43,280 Speaker 1: I feel pure innocence thinking the Golden Corral. It makes 1306 01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: me feel warm inside because those are moments I remember 1307 01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: as a child with my family. Okay, Golden Corral offers 1308 01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 1: a sense of comfort, a sense of peace that I 1309 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:56,600 Speaker 1: don't want to see disturbed by a group of individuals 1310 01:05:56,680 --> 01:06:01,040 Speaker 1: fighting over steak. I heard pain and that man's voice 1311 01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:07,600 Speaker 1: during that fight. Listen, man, all he wanted was some steak. Okay, 1312 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 1: play it one more time. Red, you know what I 1313 01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:15,760 Speaker 1: heard when he said that, I heard all my life 1314 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 1: I had to fight. Okay. That is a brother that 1315 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:22,240 Speaker 1: is tired, exhausted life kicking his monkey ass, and all 1316 01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 1: he wanted was some steak. And yet he comes to 1317 01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 1: this place, a comfort called Golden Corral, and ends up 1318 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:34,440 Speaker 1: in a buffet fueled bra for what for what? He 1319 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:37,560 Speaker 1: didn't even get the opportunity to get to the soft surf. Okay, 1320 01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:39,280 Speaker 1: we didn't even talk about the soft surf, the ice 1321 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 1: cream cones with the vanilla and chocolate soft surf. Okay, 1322 01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:43,480 Speaker 1: they got all kind of candy toppings and hot fudge. 1323 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:47,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god, man, the carrot cake, the assaulting, the cookies, 1324 01:06:47,240 --> 01:06:50,919 Speaker 1: the cupcakes, banana putting, the fudge brownies. Man, stop playing 1325 01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:53,480 Speaker 1: with Golden Corral and stop playing in Golden Corral. Okay, 1326 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:55,920 Speaker 1: learn the rules next time, or stay your ass home 1327 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,520 Speaker 1: when you get there. Eat a damn ye stro okay, 1328 01:06:58,600 --> 01:07:01,880 Speaker 1: depending on your side, Eat three for drink some water. Okay, 1329 01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 1: so you don't eat up all the food, all right? 1330 01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:06,360 Speaker 1: And every Golden corl Vett knows the point of the 1331 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:12,160 Speaker 1: buffet is variety. Okay, assaultments. You don't go eating up. Okay, 1332 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 1: one thing, you try everything. They're saying something for the 1333 01:07:15,400 --> 01:07:18,200 Speaker 1: next man. All right. The reality is they probably didn't 1334 01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 1: have no steak because beef is in short supply in 1335 01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:26,160 Speaker 1: a lot of places. Okay, supply chain disruptions are real. 1336 01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:29,040 Speaker 1: But the moral of the story is this. You know 1337 01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 1: who's going through a lot right now, literally everybody, So 1338 01:07:33,280 --> 01:07:36,000 Speaker 1: just be kind. Please give those forty folks who got 1339 01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:38,200 Speaker 1: the banging in the Golden Corral the biggest he hall. 1340 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:48,000 Speaker 1: I got a feeling. Taylor was there. You don't play 1341 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 1: a game. The Breakfast Club and everybody is tj Envy, 1342 01:07:57,000 --> 01:08:00,360 Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. 1343 01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:03,280 Speaker 1: We have a special guest in the building. Yes, indeed, 1344 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:07,959 Speaker 1: he is my tax attorney, Eric Lee. Welcome Eric, Good morning, 1345 01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:10,760 Speaker 1: Good morning everyone. Who is Eric Lee? Well, before we started, 1346 01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:12,800 Speaker 1: let me tell you how I met Eric. So I 1347 01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:16,439 Speaker 1: was having some tax issues and some tax problems. I 1348 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:18,400 Speaker 1: think a lot of us sometimes we do, and that's 1349 01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:20,680 Speaker 1: because we come from places where we honestly don't know 1350 01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:23,400 Speaker 1: how the correct way to do taxes or how to 1351 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:26,400 Speaker 1: set up out businesses. And I didn't, and I was 1352 01:08:26,760 --> 01:08:28,800 Speaker 1: lost and confused. I reached out to a couple of 1353 01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:32,560 Speaker 1: accountants and tax attorneys who guided me wrong, and I 1354 01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:34,680 Speaker 1: was stuck to the point where most people don't know 1355 01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:36,600 Speaker 1: where the I rs. Actually put a lean on my 1356 01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:39,680 Speaker 1: passport no yes, and I couldn't track if I couldn't move, 1357 01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:41,880 Speaker 1: and I didn't know, and it was and it was 1358 01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:43,320 Speaker 1: nothing I can do. It wasn't the fact that I 1359 01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:45,400 Speaker 1: owed the money. I was going back and forth with 1360 01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 1: them and they were doing things that I didn't think 1361 01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:50,720 Speaker 1: was right. And a friend of mine named Steph told 1362 01:08:50,760 --> 01:08:52,080 Speaker 1: me that he had a friend that had a friend, 1363 01:08:52,120 --> 01:08:54,240 Speaker 1: and I reached out to Eric, and Eric came and 1364 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:56,640 Speaker 1: he worked my issue out. And the reason he's here 1365 01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 1: today is because I know tax season is right around 1366 01:08:58,360 --> 01:09:00,519 Speaker 1: the corner, and there's so many people that need help 1367 01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:03,080 Speaker 1: with their taxes and just don't don't what to do 1368 01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:04,920 Speaker 1: it or how to do it. So I was like, 1369 01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:06,639 Speaker 1: why don't you come up and try to break down 1370 01:09:06,720 --> 01:09:08,800 Speaker 1: a lot of the things that you do that maybe 1371 01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:11,640 Speaker 1: you could help people like you actually helped break it down. Eric. 1372 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:13,280 Speaker 1: I want to know how you how you saved envy 1373 01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 1: that we don't say how you saved my ass, but well, 1374 01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:20,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, it's definitely been an interesting journey, Envy, right, 1375 01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:25,240 Speaker 1: and what we actually need to consider, especially for your listeners, right, 1376 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 1: the people who make sixty thousand dollars one hundred thousand 1377 01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:31,559 Speaker 1: dollars of lass. It's like the various deductions that came 1378 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:35,679 Speaker 1: in last year under dividen administration that most people forget about. 1379 01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:39,639 Speaker 1: Most people actually never even heard about these days. For example, 1380 01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 1: many of your listeners, if they have children, all right, 1381 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:45,559 Speaker 1: under the age of seventeen, they should be getting three 1382 01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:49,639 Speaker 1: hundred dollars a month last year. All right, yeah, tax 1383 01:09:49,720 --> 01:09:53,800 Speaker 1: credit that's in child tax okay, okay, well, mansions in 1384 01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:55,840 Speaker 1: charge right now, we'll just send it, right. We probably 1385 01:09:55,880 --> 01:09:58,040 Speaker 1: don't have that right now, So it's two thousand dollars 1386 01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:01,240 Speaker 1: a year. But last year it was three thousand dollars 1387 01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:07,040 Speaker 1: for children under six to seventeen. Kids less younger than six, 1388 01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:09,639 Speaker 1: it was thirty six hundred about if somebody has six 1389 01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:12,800 Speaker 1: kids up to how many kids infinite amount? Okay, But 1390 01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:17,120 Speaker 1: but that's the nice credit. That's everything that everyone hears about, Charlane, 1391 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,600 Speaker 1: all right, but Envy, the big one, this is the 1392 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:23,679 Speaker 1: one that people don't know about, okay, is a dependent 1393 01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:26,680 Speaker 1: care credit. The depending care credit is if you have 1394 01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 1: children who you need to actually drop off at daycare 1395 01:10:30,680 --> 01:10:34,760 Speaker 1: or summer school, whatever someplace that you need to have 1396 01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,280 Speaker 1: your kids at when you need to go to work. 1397 01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:41,759 Speaker 1: All right. That is eight thousand to sixteen thousand dollars 1398 01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:47,880 Speaker 1: sixteen thousand dollars for expensive twenty twenty one, twenty twenty one, 1399 01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:51,160 Speaker 1: all right, And this is something that is so important 1400 01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:54,679 Speaker 1: for our listeners. Sixteen thousand dollars. We always talk about 1401 01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:59,080 Speaker 1: how expensive childcare is. Right, the Body Administration got something right. 1402 01:10:59,120 --> 01:11:02,400 Speaker 1: They gave a sixteen thousand dollars for each um for 1403 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,880 Speaker 1: the dependent care credit. Right, your listeners need to take 1404 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:08,200 Speaker 1: advantage of that. What what qualifications do you need to get? 1405 01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 1: Dead sixteen thousand to make sure that you know our 1406 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:12,479 Speaker 1: listeners are able to get it. So this is this 1407 01:11:12,600 --> 01:11:16,360 Speaker 1: year's tax return which is due when April April fifteen, 1408 01:11:16,400 --> 01:11:19,280 Speaker 1: April fifteen, So what are the qualifications to get you know, 1409 01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 1: that amount of money for that? What is it called again? 1410 01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 1: Dependent care credit? Dependent? Uh? The dependent must be thirteen 1411 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:32,240 Speaker 1: years or younger unless they cannot physically or mentally take 1412 01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:34,920 Speaker 1: care of themselves, okay, right, you also have to they 1413 01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,920 Speaker 1: have to live with you for fifty one percent of time. Now, 1414 01:11:38,200 --> 01:11:41,200 Speaker 1: this is also not just when we think about just kids, 1415 01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 1: all right. If I'm taking care of my parents and 1416 01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:46,960 Speaker 1: they follow fall within the same criteria, it's also eight 1417 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:50,760 Speaker 1: to sixteen thousand dollars dependent, all right. So it's also 1418 01:11:50,800 --> 01:11:53,559 Speaker 1: a misnumber when we think it's only for children, all right. 1419 01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:57,240 Speaker 1: So it's a valuable item, right, Your listeners just probably 1420 01:11:57,280 --> 01:11:59,320 Speaker 1: got sixteen thousand thouars. To wait a minute. So if 1421 01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 1: I'm if I have a kid in this per kid no, no, no, 1422 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:04,800 Speaker 1: up to two, up to two, Yeah, the first one 1423 01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:07,960 Speaker 1: is eight, two, three, four, five whatever it is, sixteen 1424 01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:10,880 Speaker 1: and then also like so I know a lot about 1425 01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 1: our listeners. A lot of people out there, they have 1426 01:12:12,640 --> 01:12:15,200 Speaker 1: their mothers living with them or their fathers living with them, 1427 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:16,600 Speaker 1: and they're taking kid of their mother and fathers. So 1428 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 1: they can get that under the Dependent Act as well. Yes, 1429 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:22,680 Speaker 1: if they actually have a facility, that also help with 1430 01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:25,240 Speaker 1: them as well. Now, a lot of people always ask, 1431 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, they're working on the five and they get 1432 01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:30,559 Speaker 1: taxes taken out of their check, what write offs can 1433 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:33,320 Speaker 1: they do if they if they already working in on 1434 01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:35,599 Speaker 1: the farm, they already take taxes out How can they 1435 01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:38,479 Speaker 1: get more money back or write more things off? If possible? 1436 01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:39,680 Speaker 1: What do they need to set up? Do they need 1437 01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:42,120 Speaker 1: to set up a corporation? Es core but LLC? Do 1438 01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:44,200 Speaker 1: they How do they write off their gas? How they like? 1439 01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:46,720 Speaker 1: How do they do that to get more money back? Well? 1440 01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 1: I hate to be a lawyer with you guys, but 1441 01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:51,960 Speaker 1: it kind of depends, right, It kind of depends, because 1442 01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:54,120 Speaker 1: I don't want anyone to be just setting up a 1443 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:56,960 Speaker 1: corporation just to get a tax deduction, because that doesn't 1444 01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:59,600 Speaker 1: make any sense. You're throwing away thousands and thousands of 1445 01:12:59,640 --> 01:13:02,000 Speaker 1: dollars to get a tax deduction of maybe thirty seven percent. 1446 01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:04,960 Speaker 1: That doesn't make sense, all right. What does make sense 1447 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:11,040 Speaker 1: is actually going through your sources of income and finding 1448 01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:13,280 Speaker 1: out what your income is. Right. If it's just w 1449 01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:16,360 Speaker 1: two wages, all right, then we may need to actually 1450 01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 1: set up a retirement account like an IRA or four 1451 01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:20,600 Speaker 1: one K you know, go to Morgan Stanley, go to 1452 01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:22,759 Speaker 1: Mary Lynch whatever and set one up, right. It doesn't 1453 01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 1: take you very long. Okay. If it's interest income, we 1454 01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:28,640 Speaker 1: need to determine do you actually need to income or 1455 01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 1: can you actually transform that income? All right? Maybe you'll 1456 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 1: want to change it into a municipal bond. Right. Some 1457 01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:38,160 Speaker 1: of our older listeners, you know, who are retirees, they 1458 01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:40,800 Speaker 1: may have like a bunch of savings income, interest income, right, 1459 01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:43,400 Speaker 1: so then they should change it into something that's non taxable, 1460 01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:47,080 Speaker 1: all right, capital gains. Maybe you don't sell your stock, 1461 01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:51,120 Speaker 1: or maybe you transform it into a what is called 1462 01:13:51,400 --> 01:13:54,320 Speaker 1: a dividend reinvestment plan. All right. So if you're getting, 1463 01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 1: for example, dividends from Microsoft three dollars a year or 1464 01:13:57,439 --> 01:14:00,240 Speaker 1: whatever it is, right, you can change it where you 1465 01:14:00,280 --> 01:14:02,920 Speaker 1: don't get that three dollars. You actually get stock in Microsoft, 1466 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:06,320 Speaker 1: and that is not taxable. So it really does depend 1467 01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:09,639 Speaker 1: on the client into situation. What are the top five 1468 01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:11,800 Speaker 1: things you can't write off? Because that thing, as you know, 1469 01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:15,320 Speaker 1: that's a great question. Okay, some people, some clients will 1470 01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:17,320 Speaker 1: say like, hey, I have all these clothes, I have 1471 01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 1: this chain, right, can I write this off? The rule 1472 01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:25,040 Speaker 1: is ordinary and necessary business expense? All right. First of all, 1473 01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:27,160 Speaker 1: it has to be a business expense. Second one, you 1474 01:14:27,240 --> 01:14:28,800 Speaker 1: have to have income. If you don't have income, you 1475 01:14:28,800 --> 01:14:31,760 Speaker 1: don't have expenses. So when people say like, all right, 1476 01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:35,880 Speaker 1: can I buy a car and just write this off? Charlottagne, Right, well, 1477 01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:38,759 Speaker 1: first of all, is it necessary and is it ordinary? 1478 01:14:39,280 --> 01:14:42,120 Speaker 1: All right? What type of business do you have? If 1479 01:14:42,160 --> 01:14:46,040 Speaker 1: I buy a Rolls Royce, Right, that's probably not necessary, 1480 01:14:46,320 --> 01:14:50,479 Speaker 1: but in some situations it may be right. So so 1481 01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:54,639 Speaker 1: it goes down this path of like what is necessary? Yeah, 1482 01:14:55,160 --> 01:14:57,160 Speaker 1: we have more where Eric Lee? When we come back, 1483 01:14:57,320 --> 01:14:59,280 Speaker 1: tax season is right around a corner.

We're still kicking in with tax attorney 1488 01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:14,400 Speaker 1: Eric Lee. Now, tax seasons right around a corner, and 1489 01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:16,640 Speaker 1: they'll help you get some extra money. Charlomagne. How did 1490 01:15:16,680 --> 01:15:19,320 Speaker 1: the tax quo would hurt low and middle class families? 1491 01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:22,840 Speaker 1: There are two examples. I want to give you two examples, right, 1492 01:15:23,360 --> 01:15:29,120 Speaker 1: first example is let's look at interest. Right. My parents 1493 01:15:29,640 --> 01:15:32,439 Speaker 1: don't have much money, right, they open an account at 1494 01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:34,519 Speaker 1: City Bank, they put in a thousand dollars, they get 1495 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:38,960 Speaker 1: some interest income. Right, that is taxet ordinary income up 1496 01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:42,200 Speaker 1: to thirty seven percent. Okay, up to thirty seven percent. Federally, 1497 01:15:42,280 --> 01:15:44,920 Speaker 1: let's not even talk about the state. Okay, thirty seven percent. 1498 01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:48,280 Speaker 1: If they got dividends, they go on robin Hood open 1499 01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:53,080 Speaker 1: up an account. Right. Dividend income is taxed at most 1500 01:15:53,200 --> 01:15:56,000 Speaker 1: twenty three point eight percent, so you have a swing 1501 01:15:56,080 --> 01:16:00,799 Speaker 1: of fourteen percent. All right, Who has dividends in America? 1502 01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:05,960 Speaker 1: The wealthy rich? Yeah? Right? Who has interest income? More likely? 1503 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:09,519 Speaker 1: Retirees more likely? Poor people you know, who need to 1504 01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,840 Speaker 1: open up to something like a savings account. Why would 1505 01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:17,040 Speaker 1: decode change that because there's really no difference between interest 1506 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:19,200 Speaker 1: income and dividend anycome. If you think about it, it's 1507 01:16:19,240 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 1: easier to open a robin Hood account than it is 1508 01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:23,680 Speaker 1: to open a savings account in Bank of America. Right, 1509 01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:26,639 Speaker 1: So that's one thing. Look at the meals that we're 1510 01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:29,040 Speaker 1: talking about, Charliemagne. When you take your kids out, right, 1511 01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:33,680 Speaker 1: not tax deductible. But if you have a business, why 1512 01:16:33,760 --> 01:16:37,200 Speaker 1: would that be tax deductible? You know? So these are 1513 01:16:37,320 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 1: like very very simple things, but into our policy things 1514 01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:44,400 Speaker 1: to your question. Right into fifties and sixties, there were 1515 01:16:44,439 --> 01:16:48,960 Speaker 1: significant tax credits and deductions for setting up multifamily households. Okay, 1516 01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:54,600 Speaker 1: now those are done. Now the tax credits and deductions 1517 01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:59,559 Speaker 1: are for setting up these McMansions. Right, So our shift 1518 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:03,760 Speaker 1: in housing has gone into larger homes away from the 1519 01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:06,439 Speaker 1: multifamily homes that we need a place for New York. 1520 01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:10,439 Speaker 1: All right, So you see this throughout the code, all right, 1521 01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:13,200 Speaker 1: And this is no slamm against RS. Seventy three thousand 1522 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 1: people work at RS. They're actually pretty overworked. There are 1523 01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:21,760 Speaker 1: fifteen sorry, there are sixteen thousand people who work at 1524 01:17:21,760 --> 01:17:24,519 Speaker 1: the phone banks into IRS. And when you called IRIS, Charlemagne, 1525 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:27,519 Speaker 1: you're always on hold. You're on hold for hours, Envy, 1526 01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:30,519 Speaker 1: you're talking about your passport thing that was hours of 1527 01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:33,200 Speaker 1: just being on hold. Sixteen thousand you nominy calls it 1528 01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:36,760 Speaker 1: get a year, two hundred and forty million columns. It 1529 01:17:36,920 --> 01:17:39,599 Speaker 1: is it? True to IRIS was created to help the people, 1530 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:43,240 Speaker 1: and then it changed where it's like more of a 1531 01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:46,800 Speaker 1: government thing ATNIT. Now yeah, I mean you know when 1532 01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:49,880 Speaker 1: we think about like what taxes were for, right, it 1533 01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:55,680 Speaker 1: was for education, it was for health and maintenance of society, right. 1534 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:58,320 Speaker 1: But now it's just become an organ and it's become 1535 01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:00,560 Speaker 1: kind of like a political entity and almost kind of 1536 01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 1: like a kicking bat, you know, like people just like 1537 01:18:02,840 --> 01:18:05,680 Speaker 1: kick it now, you know, and it's become this like 1538 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:10,160 Speaker 1: organization that has to just interpret this behemoth? Did the 1539 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:13,640 Speaker 1: Internal Revenue Code actually probably nine times the size of 1540 01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 1: King's James Bible? Nine times? Who the hell can you 1541 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:21,880 Speaker 1: read all it? Nobody can? Nobody can. No, Like I mean, 1542 01:18:21,960 --> 01:18:26,320 Speaker 1: if you're asking me, right, yeah, Like I know my corporations, right, 1543 01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:30,880 Speaker 1: I know my transfers, corporate reords, I know tax planning, right. 1544 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:33,840 Speaker 1: But if you asked me, like, hey, it's state planning. Hey, 1545 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:37,679 Speaker 1: my mom has you know so many millions? I don't 1546 01:18:37,720 --> 01:18:41,240 Speaker 1: know that section. I don't know that sectioned out well, right, 1547 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:43,880 Speaker 1: I have to rely on my partner, Christina Pazza, who 1548 01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 1: knows how to reduce people's income, you know, for estate planning. 1549 01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:51,240 Speaker 1: So nobody anyone who says they know every part of 1550 01:18:51,280 --> 01:18:53,760 Speaker 1: the tax code, there's no possible way. Is there a 1551 01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:55,560 Speaker 1: way not to pay taxes? Like you know, I know 1552 01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,040 Speaker 1: at one time that's in the taxol. We got to 1553 01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:02,080 Speaker 1: read it. Anyway not to pay taxes? I don't know. 1554 01:19:02,160 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 1: Maybe if you were Native American, you know you don't 1555 01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:06,880 Speaker 1: have to pay that? Is that any truth to any 1556 01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:10,120 Speaker 1: of it? No? No, no, no, noative, I mean you 1557 01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:14,280 Speaker 1: got to you gotta pay, you gotta pay where your 1558 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:17,559 Speaker 1: income is source, all right. So even people who say like, hey, 1559 01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:20,360 Speaker 1: moved to Nevada, moved to Florida, moved to Texas, moved 1560 01:19:20,400 --> 01:19:24,400 Speaker 1: to Puerto Rico. Right. I have a client who, um 1561 01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:27,000 Speaker 1: knock on wood you know, is going to be a 1562 01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:30,679 Speaker 1: bitcoin billionaire, right all right, And everybody in the bitcoin 1563 01:19:30,720 --> 01:19:32,400 Speaker 1: industry is like, oh, just move to Puerto Rico. So 1564 01:19:32,479 --> 01:19:35,479 Speaker 1: any kind of avoid all your taxes I've heard that before, right, No, 1565 01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 1: because or make sure your servers in Israel or something 1566 01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:42,760 Speaker 1: like that, you know, to avoid your taxes absolutely not right. 1567 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:45,519 Speaker 1: You have to pay your fair share, all right, of 1568 01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:48,639 Speaker 1: where the income is source, all right. But where those 1569 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:52,240 Speaker 1: people actually minimize or lower their taxes is to implement 1570 01:19:52,320 --> 01:19:55,559 Speaker 1: certain vehicles to get them from thirty seven percent where 1571 01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:58,120 Speaker 1: we were talking about for like interest income down to 1572 01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:00,680 Speaker 1: twenty three point eight in dividends kind of like how 1573 01:20:00,720 --> 01:20:03,240 Speaker 1: Mitt Romney did it, you know, with hedge fund money. Right. 1574 01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:06,720 Speaker 1: So that's how people reduce their taxes. And now I'm 1575 01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:08,280 Speaker 1: not gonna lie to we did live in like a 1576 01:20:08,360 --> 01:20:10,240 Speaker 1: Florida or New York man that would say was so 1577 01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:13,000 Speaker 1: much money because New York state taxes to be kicking ass. 1578 01:20:13,280 --> 01:20:15,840 Speaker 1: One d p So you know, that's about how much 1579 01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:21,040 Speaker 1: they take you go.

New Jersey's ten point seven five right, 1583 01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:33,280 Speaker 1: So yeah, you have to go to Texas. You got 1584 01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:36,080 Speaker 1: to go to Florida. Right. Some people say that, some retirees. 1585 01:20:36,400 --> 01:20:39,120 Speaker 1: Some retirees will say like, hey, um, how do I 1586 01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:40,800 Speaker 1: avoid all my state income tax? Well, you have to 1587 01:20:40,880 --> 01:20:43,200 Speaker 1: move to Florida. But the thing is, you actually have 1588 01:20:43,280 --> 01:20:45,639 Speaker 1: to move to Florida. You actually have to live there 1589 01:20:45,720 --> 01:20:48,519 Speaker 1: for like one hundred and eighty three days, right, And 1590 01:20:48,880 --> 01:20:51,519 Speaker 1: that's may not be as easy as you think. You know. Yeah, 1591 01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:53,040 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask. You know, there's a lot of 1592 01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:56,439 Speaker 1: people buying houses right now during a pandemic, interest rates low, 1593 01:20:57,080 --> 01:20:59,439 Speaker 1: it seems like people are giving money. How can you 1594 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:01,880 Speaker 1: make you that Well, first of all, after you buy 1595 01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:03,599 Speaker 1: a house, can you write off anything in the house 1596 01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:05,040 Speaker 1: at the end of the year. And also, is there 1597 01:21:05,040 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 1: any way to get any type of tax returns for 1598 01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 1: buying that house? Because you buy a house, now you 1599 01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:11,760 Speaker 1: got to pay taxes at the end of DYEA you're broke. 1600 01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 1: So is there anything that you can do to write 1601 01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:16,679 Speaker 1: any of that stuff for? Yeah, so your property taxes 1602 01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:21,400 Speaker 1: will be part of your itemized deductions. That's a tax deduction. Okay, 1603 01:21:21,760 --> 01:21:25,120 Speaker 1: your mortgage, your interest is a tax deduction. All right. 1604 01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:28,240 Speaker 1: So those are the two key ones. All right.

If you have an office? Yeah, 1607 01:21:33,160 --> 01:21:36,599 Speaker 1: home office deduction all right? If you have a business, right, 1608 01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:39,080 Speaker 1: maybe you instead of taking a home office deduction, you 1609 01:21:39,080 --> 01:21:42,519 Speaker 1: should have some shareholder meetings in there, right, and that 1610 01:21:42,680 --> 01:21:47,320 Speaker 1: could reduce some of your business income, and then it 1611 01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:51,559 Speaker 1: would also then serve as a deduction for you, depending 1612 01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:54,040 Speaker 1: on how the business is formed. We have more with 1613 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,479 Speaker 1: Eric Lee when we come back. Tax season is right 1614 01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:59,040 Speaker 1: around a corner.

Now, tax seasons right around the corner, and 1620 01:22:16,479 --> 01:22:18,640 Speaker 1: they'll help you get some extra money. Chalomagne, how does 1621 01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:21,599 Speaker 1: do the loans affect people's taxes? So a great question. 1622 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:25,920 Speaker 1: It depends. If you make less than seventy thousand dollars, 1623 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:28,880 Speaker 1: make sure make sure you speak with your tax prepared 1624 01:22:28,920 --> 01:22:32,360 Speaker 1: because you get a twenty five hundred dollars tax deduction. 1625 01:22:32,560 --> 01:22:35,200 Speaker 1: If you make more than seventy thousand dollars up to 1626 01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:39,280 Speaker 1: around eighty thousand, it does phase out, meaning it reduces. 1627 01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:41,120 Speaker 1: What about people who just bought a new home, how 1628 01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:44,120 Speaker 1: how did they get a high retire Again, it would 1629 01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:47,960 Speaker 1: depend on home mortgage interest as well as property taxes, 1630 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,479 Speaker 1: and then some of the things that we were talking about. 1631 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:52,720 Speaker 1: You know, if you have a business, then maybe you 1632 01:22:52,840 --> 01:22:56,160 Speaker 1: need to utilize your house within the business. You know, 1633 01:22:56,360 --> 01:23:00,080 Speaker 1: when it comes to the administration, the presidential administration, what 1634 01:23:00,280 --> 01:23:02,559 Speaker 1: helps people more when it comes to money as far 1635 01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:08,000 Speaker 1: as saving is it the Democrats are Republicans? You know, 1636 01:23:08,040 --> 01:23:09,760 Speaker 1: because you had a lot of businessmen saying I want 1637 01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:12,040 Speaker 1: Trump because Trump does better for business owners, and then 1638 01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:15,320 Speaker 1: you hear other people say no, no, no, Biden is 1639 01:23:15,320 --> 01:23:16,760 Speaker 1: going to help the people that need it more. So 1640 01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:20,240 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts on as far as helping people 1641 01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:23,240 Speaker 1: and writing things off and for small business owners and 1642 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:31,160 Speaker 1: regular people. So I live in Illinois, Okay, and we 1643 01:23:31,240 --> 01:23:34,519 Speaker 1: always hear about the corruption in Illinois and how bad 1644 01:23:34,640 --> 01:23:38,840 Speaker 1: potholes are the school system and everything. At the end 1645 01:23:38,840 --> 01:23:42,599 Speaker 1: of the year, my husband and I were very fortunate. 1646 01:23:42,640 --> 01:23:44,519 Speaker 1: We're very fortunate. We live a blessed life. I mean, 1647 01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:46,519 Speaker 1: I'm in the breakfast club. Are you kidding me? Right? 1648 01:23:47,240 --> 01:23:50,439 Speaker 1: And we always try to make deductions at the end 1649 01:23:50,479 --> 01:23:53,640 Speaker 1: of the year, charitable deductions to reduce our taxes. Right. 1650 01:23:53,760 --> 01:23:55,519 Speaker 1: But there's something I do where I look up to 1651 01:23:55,640 --> 01:23:58,040 Speaker 1: zip code where we live. We live in oak Park, 1652 01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:02,880 Speaker 1: and we look for what do schools actually need? So 1653 01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:05,960 Speaker 1: teachers actually put up these projects, they ask for donations. Right, 1654 01:24:07,479 --> 01:24:11,599 Speaker 1: every year, invariably we get people teachers who ask us 1655 01:24:11,680 --> 01:24:19,519 Speaker 1: for juice boxes, crayons, toilet paper. We have teachers who 1656 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:21,960 Speaker 1: are asking us for toilet paper. What country do we 1657 01:24:22,120 --> 01:24:28,519 Speaker 1: live in? Okay? And when we hear about wasting taxes, 1658 01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:33,600 Speaker 1: when we talk about that, Okay, hold that aside. I 1659 01:24:33,720 --> 01:24:38,519 Speaker 1: have students who don't have toilet paper, are you kidding me? Right? 1660 01:24:38,840 --> 01:24:42,360 Speaker 1: But in wealthier neighborhoods in Chicago, they're literally giving out 1661 01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:47,559 Speaker 1: ip iPads tor kids. All right, So when you're talking 1662 01:24:47,680 --> 01:24:52,920 Speaker 1: about who's better Republicans or Democrats. You know, I have 1663 01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:55,600 Speaker 1: to be agnostic about that, all right, But what I 1664 01:24:55,840 --> 01:25:00,000 Speaker 1: need to know is the listeners need to make sure 1665 01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:03,320 Speaker 1: sure that they call in, that they are actually educated, 1666 01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:07,320 Speaker 1: that they actually make sure that the senators and congress 1667 01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:10,400 Speaker 1: people are actually making sure that durings that dependent care 1668 01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:13,280 Speaker 1: credit for this year. That's so real, what you're saying, 1669 01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:15,680 Speaker 1: because it doesn't matter who's in the office. It's like 1670 01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 1: the poor always stuff, yeah, or even if they're a 1671 01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:24,320 Speaker 1: provision Charlomagne, they need to know that it's there, right, Like, 1672 01:25:24,760 --> 01:25:29,880 Speaker 1: I mean, you guys have this amazing platform, right, but 1673 01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:31,640 Speaker 1: I'm sure there are plenty of listeners who did not 1674 01:25:31,680 --> 01:25:33,599 Speaker 1: know about the dependent character or even a child tax 1675 01:25:33,680 --> 01:25:36,519 Speaker 1: credit to by are right. So when we're seeing the 1676 01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:40,400 Speaker 1: poor always suffers one hundred percent, but when they even 1677 01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:44,320 Speaker 1: get something, they may not know it's available. Yeah. And 1678 01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:46,360 Speaker 1: the reason I wanted to bring you on is because 1679 01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 1: you know, we always talk about I always say, servicing 1680 01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:53,080 Speaker 1: our life. Right, We'll take our car to get oil change, 1681 01:25:53,080 --> 01:25:55,280 Speaker 1: we'll take our car to gets high is, we'll take 1682 01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:57,360 Speaker 1: you know, there's so many different things, but we have 1683 01:25:57,439 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 1: to make sure that as a person we're taking care 1684 01:25:59,840 --> 01:26:03,040 Speaker 1: of right and whether it's going to the doctor, whether 1685 01:26:03,120 --> 01:26:07,640 Speaker 1: it's having a will, whether it's having an accountant, an attorneys, 1686 01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:09,880 Speaker 1: things that you know that we use, that we need. 1687 01:26:11,280 --> 01:26:12,680 Speaker 1: And now I call you all the time. I don't 1688 01:26:12,680 --> 01:26:15,200 Speaker 1: care if I'm buying a car, a piece of jewelry, 1689 01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:17,640 Speaker 1: a T shirt, if I'm taking a trip, I call 1690 01:26:17,720 --> 01:26:19,400 Speaker 1: him because I want to know the best way to 1691 01:26:19,680 --> 01:26:21,800 Speaker 1: write it off or the best way to pay for it, 1692 01:26:22,240 --> 01:26:23,920 Speaker 1: and you're always there to help me. So I just 1693 01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:26,160 Speaker 1: wanted to say thank you, and hopefully you know you 1694 01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:28,639 Speaker 1: gave some thank you, some insight to people out there 1695 01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:30,960 Speaker 1: of why they need a good accountant and sometimes that 1696 01:26:31,160 --> 01:26:34,000 Speaker 1: fast food accounting services might not be beneficial to you 1697 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:36,600 Speaker 1: and it might be actually hurting you. So I just 1698 01:26:36,680 --> 01:26:38,439 Speaker 1: want you guys to take a look to that and 1699 01:26:38,479 --> 01:26:40,800 Speaker 1: make sure you have a great tax attorney that can 1700 01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:43,439 Speaker 1: look into your stuff and help you on your journey, 1701 01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:45,280 Speaker 1: because a lot of us have journeys, and you know, 1702 01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 1: he's part of this journey with me. So I just 1703 01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:50,880 Speaker 1: wanted to say thank you. Now you can want to 1704 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:52,080 Speaker 1: get in touch with you. I know you're not really 1705 01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:54,080 Speaker 1: taking clients, but I know if they wanted. Maybe you 1706 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:55,800 Speaker 1: have a good they have a question or whatever it 1707 01:26:55,840 --> 01:26:58,160 Speaker 1: may be. How can they get in contact with you 1708 01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:02,680 Speaker 1: or your firm? Yep um go to our website at 1709 01:27:02,840 --> 01:27:07,920 Speaker 1: Players Management Group dot com players p L A y 1710 01:27:08,080 --> 01:27:12,720 Speaker 1: e R S Mgmt Group g r oup dot com. 1711 01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:15,920 Speaker 1: Now with business, Now, what do you suggest for people 1712 01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:20,519 Speaker 1: that have a company LLC squote? What's best? What's better? 1713 01:27:20,680 --> 01:27:22,439 Speaker 1: Why they use each one? Because a lot of people 1714 01:27:22,439 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 1: don't know the difference between LC escorp and what they 1715 01:27:25,200 --> 01:27:28,760 Speaker 1: should use it for, you know, or even C corps. Right, 1716 01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:33,719 Speaker 1: and that really depends because each one of their primarily 1717 01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:36,320 Speaker 1: six entities out there. Right, you could be a sole proprietorship, 1718 01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:39,080 Speaker 1: I just you know, do an uber thing. Right, I 1719 01:27:39,200 --> 01:27:41,599 Speaker 1: can be a little bit more sophisticated form an LLC. 1720 01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:43,320 Speaker 1: I could form an escorporation, and could form a C 1721 01:27:43,439 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 1: corporation Charlemagne, and I can open up a coffee store. 1722 01:27:47,560 --> 01:27:50,720 Speaker 1: Right that becomes a general partnership by default. Right. Each 1723 01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:54,160 Speaker 1: one of these have their own benefits, okay, but each 1724 01:27:54,200 --> 01:27:57,000 Speaker 1: one of them have their own weaknesses, all right. A 1725 01:27:57,720 --> 01:28:02,439 Speaker 1: good attorney or a good CPA would probably tell you 1726 01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:06,200 Speaker 1: to actually have them all if possible, because there are 1727 01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:10,519 Speaker 1: certain provisions within the S corporation, certain benefits that do 1728 01:28:10,720 --> 01:28:14,120 Speaker 1: not apply to the C corporation. Okay. So, for example, 1729 01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:17,200 Speaker 1: if I'm an employee at S corporation, certain benefits that 1730 01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:20,800 Speaker 1: I have as a shareholder employee I can't take. I 1731 01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:23,320 Speaker 1: can't take it. But if I'm an employee of the 1732 01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:27,839 Speaker 1: C corporation, I can take those deductions. Okay, for example 1733 01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:31,320 Speaker 1: health insurance, right, the company can actually deduct that if 1734 01:28:32,360 --> 01:28:34,240 Speaker 1: I'm an employe of a C corporation. If an employee 1735 01:28:34,240 --> 01:28:37,439 Speaker 1: of ANES corporation, I can't deduct that. Okay. So you 1736 01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:40,960 Speaker 1: may need a comprehensive plan where you actually set all 1737 01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:44,519 Speaker 1: those things up in place. Got you all right? Well, 1738 01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:49,240 Speaker 1: Eric Lee, very informative. It's the Breakfast Cloud.

It has built the technology to 1766 01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:32,400 Speaker 1: have a nationwide customer base and to provide all the 1767 01:30:32,560 --> 01:30:36,120 Speaker 1: modern financial services that we come to expect out the 1768 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:39,280 Speaker 1: day to day life, things like Benmo, cash app and 1769 01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:42,320 Speaker 1: being able to use those kind of services, plus unique 1770 01:30:42,360 --> 01:30:45,760 Speaker 1: things we created that are special for the Black community 1771 01:30:45,800 --> 01:30:48,960 Speaker 1: and people who have limited resources, things like two day 1772 01:30:49,040 --> 01:30:51,519 Speaker 1: early pay. It's a big deal to people to be 1773 01:30:51,600 --> 01:30:54,280 Speaker 1: able to get their paycheck two days early as an example, 1774 01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:57,599 Speaker 1: that's a one United Bank program. Things like cash Please, 1775 01:30:57,680 --> 01:30:59,680 Speaker 1: and this is a big one because it was a 1776 01:30:59,760 --> 01:31:03,559 Speaker 1: black company that introduced it. If people are saying it's one, 1777 01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:07,160 Speaker 1: it's possibly a solution to pay their lending and that's 1778 01:31:07,400 --> 01:31:10,120 Speaker 1: that's one of our product that allows a person to 1779 01:31:10,360 --> 01:31:15,120 Speaker 1: get a short term, small balanced loan, which we often 1780 01:31:15,200 --> 01:31:19,080 Speaker 1: find ourselves needing in times of emergency, and being able 1781 01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:23,400 Speaker 1: to do that without relying on traditional credit kind of mechanism. 1782 01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:26,679 Speaker 1: So if you think of one United Bak as a bank, 1783 01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:31,400 Speaker 1: that is a technology company, something that has the actual 1784 01:31:31,560 --> 01:31:35,680 Speaker 1: ability to organize Black America and its allies on a 1785 01:31:35,880 --> 01:31:39,440 Speaker 1: national basis, and not just to provide them with financial 1786 01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:44,040 Speaker 1: services and products, but to lead to actual important changes 1787 01:31:44,160 --> 01:31:47,280 Speaker 1: in society. Something that has the ability to create a 1788 01:31:47,360 --> 01:31:50,439 Speaker 1: power base for us to give us the actual power 1789 01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:54,160 Speaker 1: to do things like affect racism and our society. We 1790 01:31:54,280 --> 01:31:58,320 Speaker 1: do things like conduct anti racism programs in a unique 1791 01:31:58,520 --> 01:32:01,240 Speaker 1: kind of way that can affect for all society. We 1792 01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:05,680 Speaker 1: do things like financial literacy programs that teach and communicate 1793 01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:08,479 Speaker 1: with Black people in a way that we understand. So 1794 01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:12,280 Speaker 1: now for people who are trying to buy home, how 1795 01:32:12,360 --> 01:32:14,519 Speaker 1: can is when United Bank first of all open open 1796 01:32:14,600 --> 01:32:17,600 Speaker 1: for business, so they are are lending. Man, We're absolutely 1797 01:32:17,720 --> 01:32:21,919 Speaker 1: open for business, and and we're on and we're popping. 1798 01:32:22,520 --> 01:32:25,439 Speaker 1: And any large base will tell you that they don't 1799 01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:27,760 Speaker 1: have the technology that we have. They don't have the 1800 01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:31,200 Speaker 1: ability to deliver services and products like we have in 1801 01:32:31,320 --> 01:32:35,240 Speaker 1: many ways because we have a new technology infrastructure, we 1802 01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:40,120 Speaker 1: weren't locked into old systems that have grown less effective 1803 01:32:40,320 --> 01:32:43,680 Speaker 1: over time. So it's the institution. Since we started this 1804 01:32:43,840 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 1: journey together, since we became friends many many years ago, 1805 01:32:47,320 --> 01:32:50,719 Speaker 1: the dream is becoming a reality what we all wanted 1806 01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:53,519 Speaker 1: to happen, just like you guys have grown. The breakfast 1807 01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:56,840 Speaker 1: club has grown one United bake It's grown. It is 1808 01:32:56,840 --> 01:33:00,479 Speaker 1: an example of black excellence. It can organize us as 1809 01:33:00,560 --> 01:33:03,920 Speaker 1: a people to create change that we've been trying to 1810 01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:07,360 Speaker 1: get since the end of slavery. I didn't like that question. 1811 01:33:07,479 --> 01:33:09,560 Speaker 1: You asked, what you're trying to make it seem like 1812 01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:11,720 Speaker 1: they can't give our loans to people because they're a 1813 01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:14,880 Speaker 1: black bank. What did you mean by that, sir? I 1814 01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:17,479 Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that they're able to satisfy all 1815 01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:19,360 Speaker 1: the loans that people are coming in and asking, well, 1816 01:33:19,360 --> 01:33:21,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't they be able to That's what I'm asking. 1817 01:33:21,080 --> 01:33:22,960 Speaker 1: I know at one time, when they first started, they 1818 01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:25,200 Speaker 1: were minimal to a certain amount. So that's why I'm asking. 1819 01:33:25,360 --> 01:33:29,479 Speaker 1: Is that true? Well, it's true with any company. The 1820 01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:33,599 Speaker 1: companies go on journeys and they become stronger over time. 1821 01:33:33,760 --> 01:33:36,840 Speaker 1: That's the key. And and you know, look, you know 1822 01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:39,560 Speaker 1: I know him and got to watch them when it 1823 01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:45,439 Speaker 1: comes to watch them, Kevin, all right, you gotta watch 1824 01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:48,519 Speaker 1: to Kevin. And I ask what about cannabis? I know 1825 01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:51,800 Speaker 1: a lot of minorities are getting into cannabis, and thinks 1826 01:33:51,840 --> 01:33:54,680 Speaker 1: are not allowing them to actually have their money there? 1827 01:33:54,760 --> 01:33:56,880 Speaker 1: How was one gotta bank with that? Now, now let's 1828 01:33:56,920 --> 01:33:59,840 Speaker 1: be clear, it's not it's not the banks. Banks wanted 1829 01:34:00,000 --> 01:34:03,240 Speaker 1: to it. It's the government. You see, when we're we're 1830 01:34:03,439 --> 01:34:05,880 Speaker 1: we operate on a national basis, and when you're doing 1831 01:34:06,040 --> 01:34:09,240 Speaker 1: things that cross state lines, then you got to deal 1832 01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:11,280 Speaker 1: with the law when it comes to things like that. 1833 01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:16,400 Speaker 1: We think that black business is fundamentally changing and there's 1834 01:34:16,439 --> 01:34:19,840 Speaker 1: a whole new opportunity set that is critically important that 1835 01:34:20,240 --> 01:34:24,400 Speaker 1: we understand. Cannabis is one aspect of aspect of it, 1836 01:34:24,520 --> 01:34:28,880 Speaker 1: but the bigger phenomenized technology. See, you can't get stuck 1837 01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:34,960 Speaker 1: with buggy whip businesses in a better reality world. Okay, 1838 01:34:35,400 --> 01:34:38,360 Speaker 1: so we know, yeah, man like because look a look, 1839 01:34:38,439 --> 01:34:41,520 Speaker 1: during the pandemic, we lost fifty percent of our businesses, 1840 01:34:42,000 --> 01:34:44,920 Speaker 1: which is bad. But at the same time, he creates 1841 01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:50,679 Speaker 1: a new opportunity for us. Technology fundamentally changes the business 1842 01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:54,280 Speaker 1: opportunities that are available to us as a people, and 1843 01:34:54,439 --> 01:34:58,000 Speaker 1: we got to build technology based businesses. We have to 1844 01:34:58,600 --> 01:35:03,679 Speaker 1: develop new kinds of businesses than existed before. And that's 1845 01:35:03,720 --> 01:35:06,840 Speaker 1: one of the critical things that it's our job as 1846 01:35:07,000 --> 01:35:11,799 Speaker 1: leaders to convey to people. It's a new day. Social 1847 01:35:12,000 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 1: justice is now the reality. We can now for the 1848 01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:18,200 Speaker 1: first time, think about it. For the first time. We 1849 01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:22,639 Speaker 1: can stop people from killing us. We could use things 1850 01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:26,840 Speaker 1: like social media to create justice where we couldn't create 1851 01:35:27,000 --> 01:35:32,320 Speaker 1: justice before. At the same time, businesses are fundamentally different now. 1852 01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:37,519 Speaker 1: The new modern black entrepreneur is very different than what 1853 01:35:37,720 --> 01:35:41,240 Speaker 1: we're used to seeing, and uh, you know, we have 1854 01:35:41,360 --> 01:35:44,479 Speaker 1: to recognize those differences. We have to build those new 1855 01:35:44,560 --> 01:35:48,720 Speaker 1: technology based businesses. We have to support those new technology 1856 01:35:48,800 --> 01:35:51,800 Speaker 1: based businesses. And that's the key to our future. We 1857 01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:55,080 Speaker 1: have to recognize we hit a critical inflection point right now. 1858 01:35:55,800 --> 01:35:58,959 Speaker 1: If we're going to be effective and participate in society, 1859 01:35:59,240 --> 01:36:02,280 Speaker 1: we have to become masters of technology. We ought to 1860 01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:05,800 Speaker 1: be social media machines. We have to be able to 1861 01:36:05,920 --> 01:36:10,599 Speaker 1: you know, look, politics is great, that's one aspect of power, 1862 01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:13,599 Speaker 1: but the power is always with the people you get 1863 01:36:13,720 --> 01:36:17,240 Speaker 1: you can bring fifteen million tweets down on somebody, then 1864 01:36:17,360 --> 01:36:20,800 Speaker 1: you can get their attention. And that's our opportunity is 1865 01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:26,280 Speaker 1: to use this shift in technology to create political, social, 1866 01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:30,080 Speaker 1: and economic power. And that's our job as leaders to 1867 01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:32,040 Speaker 1: inform the people of what's going on. All right, we 1868 01:36:32,120 --> 01:36:34,599 Speaker 1: have more with Kevin Cohee when we come back, don't move. 1869 01:36:34,640 --> 01:36:38,120 Speaker 1: It's the breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, 1870 01:36:38,320 --> 01:36:41,240 Speaker 1: Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the breakfast Club. 1871 01:36:41,600 --> 01:36:44,400 Speaker 1: We have the founder and owner of One United Bank 1872 01:36:44,920 --> 01:36:48,920 Speaker 1: CEO Kevin cohe still here, Cholomagne. Imagine your question, keV. 1873 01:36:49,040 --> 01:36:51,080 Speaker 1: You know you're og. What do you think, um, what 1874 01:36:51,160 --> 01:36:54,400 Speaker 1: do you think is more important? Equality or equity? Equality 1875 01:36:55,120 --> 01:36:59,320 Speaker 1: or equity? Well, I think both are important and I 1876 01:36:59,439 --> 01:37:03,080 Speaker 1: think that they're both happening. You can think of equality 1877 01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:08,240 Speaker 1: as being a right that not just black people understand, 1878 01:37:08,560 --> 01:37:11,880 Speaker 1: but everybody understands. If you looked at the social justice movement, 1879 01:37:11,960 --> 01:37:14,680 Speaker 1: you looked at the riots last year, those weren't just 1880 01:37:14,920 --> 01:37:18,439 Speaker 1: black people out there. There was all kinds of people 1881 01:37:18,760 --> 01:37:21,840 Speaker 1: who were involved in the social justice movement because that 1882 01:37:22,040 --> 01:37:26,320 Speaker 1: was just right. People understand right from wrong. It's just now, 1883 01:37:26,760 --> 01:37:30,720 Speaker 1: through social media and other technology, we have the ability 1884 01:37:31,160 --> 01:37:35,360 Speaker 1: to exercise our social point of views. That so that's 1885 01:37:35,400 --> 01:37:40,160 Speaker 1: the big thing. Remember, Okay, before last year, despite everything 1886 01:37:40,280 --> 01:37:43,240 Speaker 1: we thought about civil rights, you know, those boys would 1887 01:37:43,280 --> 01:37:46,240 Speaker 1: have got away. We're killing, killing, killing my men down 1888 01:37:46,280 --> 01:37:48,360 Speaker 1: to South Georgia. That's the last year we've been here 1889 01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:50,599 Speaker 1: to sixteen nineteen. But that's why I asked the question 1890 01:37:50,720 --> 01:37:53,080 Speaker 1: equality equity, because it seemed like during civil rights we 1891 01:37:53,160 --> 01:37:55,920 Speaker 1: always was fighting for equality. But when Martin Luke King 1892 01:37:56,000 --> 01:37:58,880 Speaker 1: Junior wanted to pivot to that equity. Four people's marching 1893 01:37:58,920 --> 01:38:01,679 Speaker 1: getting that money. That's when they got them about it. Okay, 1894 01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:05,080 Speaker 1: well that's what I'm saying. They can't get technology out 1895 01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:08,760 Speaker 1: out of here. Okay, see that it's a broader based 1896 01:38:08,840 --> 01:38:13,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to move the masses to get equality and equity. 1897 01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm not going to choose between equality. You think about 1898 01:38:16,439 --> 01:38:19,519 Speaker 1: equality and equity, I gotta have both of those. You're 1899 01:38:19,560 --> 01:38:21,599 Speaker 1: not going to take either one of those things away 1900 01:38:21,640 --> 01:38:24,040 Speaker 1: from it. What are some strategies do you think would 1901 01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:26,800 Speaker 1: help fight the racial wealth gap? The racial wealth gap 1902 01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:31,760 Speaker 1: is a knowledge problem. It's understanding what you need to 1903 01:38:31,920 --> 01:38:35,839 Speaker 1: do and then having someone to motivate you to complete 1904 01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:38,719 Speaker 1: the transactions you need to complete. So it all starts 1905 01:38:38,800 --> 01:38:42,679 Speaker 1: with the most basic things understanding where you are today, 1906 01:38:43,040 --> 01:38:45,880 Speaker 1: where's your money coming from, where are you spending it, 1907 01:38:46,840 --> 01:38:51,240 Speaker 1: what is your financial wellness? And from that foundation of 1908 01:38:51,400 --> 01:38:54,599 Speaker 1: starting there in an organized way, really understanding what's going 1909 01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:57,880 Speaker 1: on with you now and unfortunately, you know a lot 1910 01:38:57,920 --> 01:39:00,920 Speaker 1: of times we don't understand how to understand where we 1911 01:39:01,000 --> 01:39:03,960 Speaker 1: are and then us and then working from that foundation 1912 01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:09,360 Speaker 1: to engage in the basic transactions that are necessary to 1913 01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:12,519 Speaker 1: build well like in this pandemic they you know, we 1914 01:39:12,840 --> 01:39:16,439 Speaker 1: have been challenged with is getting Black Americans to understand 1915 01:39:16,479 --> 01:39:19,080 Speaker 1: the importance of a will. I mean, you know, you know, 1916 01:39:19,200 --> 01:39:21,880 Speaker 1: unfortunately that's not been something that's been at the top 1917 01:39:21,960 --> 01:39:26,000 Speaker 1: of our agenda and something that we're working on. We're 1918 01:39:26,040 --> 01:39:28,879 Speaker 1: working on, and so the conveyance of that kind of information, 1919 01:39:29,040 --> 01:39:32,280 Speaker 1: things like insurance time like this. I mean, you know, 1920 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:35,360 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes unfortunately we can learn the hard way 1921 01:39:35,920 --> 01:39:40,360 Speaker 1: the impact of not having basic things like insurance, things 1922 01:39:40,400 --> 01:39:44,800 Speaker 1: like investing, things like homeownership and understanding where to buy 1923 01:39:44,920 --> 01:39:47,920 Speaker 1: home we're not to buy home and how to do it. 1924 01:39:48,400 --> 01:39:51,480 Speaker 1: So so it's a knowledge So when you say eradicating 1925 01:39:51,640 --> 01:39:55,000 Speaker 1: racial wealth gap, we see that as a knowledge problem. 1926 01:39:55,280 --> 01:39:58,759 Speaker 1: And for us, we always go to technology to solve 1927 01:39:58,880 --> 01:40:01,719 Speaker 1: that kind of problem. You talked about all these wonderful 1928 01:40:01,840 --> 01:40:05,320 Speaker 1: podcasts that is this that work towards that. But what 1929 01:40:05,479 --> 01:40:07,559 Speaker 1: we try to do is we try to create an umbrella. 1930 01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:10,200 Speaker 1: We try to create a framework for being able to 1931 01:40:10,320 --> 01:40:12,960 Speaker 1: do that systematically on the national basis. Think about it, 1932 01:40:12,960 --> 01:40:15,120 Speaker 1: if we were working in harmony on it, where we 1933 01:40:15,200 --> 01:40:19,599 Speaker 1: were all thinking about okay, for real, we actually want 1934 01:40:19,760 --> 01:40:25,559 Speaker 1: to deliver the knowledge to Black Americas necessary to build well. 1935 01:40:26,000 --> 01:40:28,720 Speaker 1: And then we're gonna like, we're gonna work with the 1936 01:40:28,920 --> 01:40:32,439 Speaker 1: person through the entire product process of both teaching them 1937 01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:36,240 Speaker 1: and then motivating them to complete the act.
