Speaker 1: I just want to I just want to, like ask
Speaker 1: a white chef, like, is this grass fed beef every day?

Speaker 2: I was just talking to my girl about that.

Speaker 4: But you know, the problem was or the funny thing
Speaker 4: about having a white cleaning lady.
Speaker 2: As soon as I was, I was out on her.

Speaker 3: And then in the.
Speaker 4: Middle it me we started at the hardest part, the
Speaker 4: hardest part, and then I was like, I don't have
Speaker 4: a way out of that. And I was like, if
Speaker 4: you just are casual over it, ultimately maybe they'll think if.
Speaker 2: You had so little enthusiasm for it that I thought
Speaker 2: maybe you had something had gone wrong.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I was short. You know what it is,
Speaker 4: that's me panicking. I was panicking just there.
Speaker 3: You saw it.
Speaker 2: You thought you could outcool the mistake.
Speaker 4: Exactly because I started saying, guess who's back, and I
Speaker 4: was like, fuck, it's welcome back. And then I was
Speaker 4: thinking about that Scarface song and I was like, maybe
Speaker 4: maybe if I'm chill, they'll think it's that.
Speaker 2: And then I went for.

Speaker 2: what you used to be able to make into television. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they like you ain't got a third premise on this? No,

Speaker 1: somebody has drugs at some point, special drugs. I think
Speaker 1: in every eighties come like at one season, Someone's offer
Speaker 1: marijuana by a guy who flat. It's a very special episode.
Speaker 2: In those older years, the Lista Milano started doing this
Speaker 2: somebody that drank a a party.
Speaker 4: I thought it would have been the sexy grandma who
Speaker 4: was doing the on that show.
Speaker 2: I think, I think, I bet it was a Lissa
Speaker 2: Milano got drunk at a party, and I bet the
Speaker 2: old sexy grandma was like, honey, it's fine. I used
Speaker 2: to do cocaine. I think she was such a.
Speaker 7: Honey, yeah exactly, Yeah, wrong, honey, I used to shoot
Speaker 7: a black tar exactly.

Speaker 2: I knew she was.
Speaker 4: I was surprised you didn't know okay, three years did no,
Speaker 4: I didn't know that.
Speaker 1: I posted that clip seven hundred comments. Barbara Walters went
Speaker 1: to the glory like people did not know. Damn straight up, man,
Speaker 1: she'd been gone for some time.
Speaker 4: Greatest speech impediment of all time. I think I was
Speaker 4: there too. Her Tyson, Tyson's up there. Who else we got?
Speaker 4: Who talks funny? And that's at the top.
Speaker 2: Ron Harper was big for me as a kid. I
Speaker 2: like that he had a stutter.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like the stutter, but I like more of
Speaker 4: I like the wa wa Like why.
Speaker 2: Did she never correct that?
Speaker 1: Because many children have that, but they go on to
Speaker 1: get like a speech therapist. Well she was second grade.
Speaker 2: She was before speech therapist exists.
Speaker 1: But I mean yeah, because she was born in like
Speaker 1: the Great Depression.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't. She was mouth crazy.
Speaker 3: We can do.
Speaker 2: We can do a libido, but I don't know a libido.
Speaker 2: She was born a year after they stopped burning woman
Speaker 2: at the state. Apparently Baas got here just after Roots,
Speaker 2: right after Roots. That she could shed a lot of
Speaker 2: nice life.
Speaker 4: She lived a long, beautiful life. Yeah all right, Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's a good time. This has been really fun. We
Speaker 4: wasted quite a bit of that's what it usually happens
Speaker 4: our guests today.
Speaker 2: You you've already heard his voice, you see his beautiful face.
Speaker 2: We're so happy you're here with us today. You know
Speaker 2: him from the podcast Yesterdays. You know him as a
Speaker 2: pop culture anthropologist, a person who you go to for
Speaker 2: all that the ship, the politics, the culture, the mess
Speaker 2: in between. This motherfucker is tapped in on all that
Speaker 2: ship and he's the source of all cool things. Give
Speaker 2: it up for our guests, mister Blake Lee Thornton.
Speaker 1: How did all of this trouble Beginmr? Yeah, hell, that
Speaker 1: is how the trouble began. With the slave ships and me.
Speaker 1: We are ancestors' greatest dreams and white people's greatest nightmare.
Speaker 2: So that's beautiful.
Speaker 4: You know. Yeah, I don't think my ancestors would have
Speaker 4: ever thought any about anything I'm doing.
Speaker 2: If you hear the stuff we say, I don't think
Speaker 2: our ancestors are gonna be too pumped on it.
Speaker 1: I always wanted to do a movie called Black to
Speaker 1: the Future. We're like me and my white assistant go
Speaker 1: back in time and I just keep getting killed over
Speaker 1: and over because like all the things you have to learn,
Speaker 1: and you just kick getting like two minutes further.
Speaker 2: I like that, like you should call it day after
Speaker 2: after tomorrow round.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, black to the future, just keep going, like
Speaker 1: what is that? Like we used to get killed for
Speaker 1: like little at white women and be like what I will,
Speaker 1: like push a white bitch out of the street, like
Speaker 1: it's Black History Month and it's like April.
Speaker 2: So I mean I'd be dead ten times over in
Speaker 2: like a minute.
Speaker 4: And you know how little we progressed as society is.
Speaker 4: I felt uncomfortable you saying that.
Speaker 2: You know you're gonna come here.
Speaker 1: Okay, no one's trying to fuck you. Okay, Katie with
Speaker 1: your fucking Kate Spade purse, you bitch.
Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, you should do it.
Speaker 1: Anyway, justid we love white women and you guys are okay,
Speaker 1: the rest all for debate.
Speaker 2: Likely we're happy you're here. You came to us with
Speaker 2: the conspiracy theory that I would say, it's got a
Speaker 2: heavier it's got a heavier hand on it. I mean,
Speaker 2: I don't think it's a conspiracy. Yeah, I think there's
Speaker 2: a fair amount of validity to it. You said, my
Speaker 2: mama told me the welfare system was created to keep
Speaker 2: black men out of the home.
Speaker 1: Yes, God damn one. Everything post thirteenth Amendment is kind
Speaker 1: of designed to keep black men out of the home.
Speaker 1: Kind of has been admitted by several Republicans since. So
Speaker 1: you know, you have the freedom of this lays, but
Speaker 1: then you put in a system that allows you to
Speaker 1: do prison work for free, which is just a promulgation
Speaker 1: of but now we have privatize prisons, and then I
Speaker 1: think the rules surrounding welfare systems were designed to keep
Speaker 1: black men out of household where you look at the
Speaker 1: technicalities at the federal and state level, where like, if
Speaker 1: you have a man in the household not working, you're
Speaker 1: not you can't have it. So I think it's just
Speaker 1: by system. It's just kind of like a death by
Speaker 1: a thousand paper cuts of keeping black family units separated.
Speaker 1: Because we've seen what happens when black people start to thrive.
Speaker 1: I Tulsa, So you know, it's easier just to keep
Speaker 1: them out of the house than to have to like
Speaker 1: you know, destroy towns and then pretend you didn't do it.
Speaker 2: That by that because hurts so much. It's true, lot
Speaker 2: you're saying that, uh that Tulsa is harder to pull
Speaker 2: off a second time. Exactly a person a person war
Speaker 2: is much easier.
Speaker 1: If you can keep people crippled at a microcouse and
Speaker 1: you don't have to deal with the macroeconomics and black
Speaker 1: people collecting and getting gaining strength and building their own systems.
Speaker 1: So it's like if you can stop them from even
Speaker 1: making the progress to begin with, and you don't have
Speaker 1: to deal with doing the overt very hard to cover up,
Speaker 1: very hard to, very hard to explain away generationally. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: crimes of what's going on. It's like when you see
Speaker 1: like Jerry Jones in that picture, like like protesting integration.
Speaker 2: Well he claimed he was just looking.
Speaker 1: I mean I honestly have a picture in my phone.
Speaker 1: He was doing more than looking like this.
Speaker 2: You know, he can't explain. It would just be easy
Speaker 2: if the black people never tried to go to the school.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 4: Jerry Jones is like, I'm gonna graduate from this college.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna start buying and selling.
Speaker 2: NFL. I was to make this work. He's worked for him.
Speaker 2: The NFL is modern chattel. Sav Oh. Yeah, It's like
Speaker 2: the problem is I don't like yelling at him personally.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't mind paying Amanda yell at exactly.
Speaker 3: I don't want to touch one man.
Speaker 1: I went to a I was a tennis teacher at
Speaker 1: a country club.
Speaker 3: Wow are you tennis?
Speaker 1: I played competitively from like ten to seventeen.
Speaker 3: It's like juniors.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like ranked in Texas. And then I
Speaker 1: was going to go to a school in Florida, an
Speaker 1: IMG Academy, and I was like, oh, these kids are broken.
Speaker 3: You were gonna go to IMG. That's like a major
Speaker 3: that's a major program.
Speaker 1: Because it's like if you want to like get a
Speaker 1: college college, but a lot of kids with IMG or
Speaker 1: they go to like Newcomb's and Austin, and then you
Speaker 1: go you see kids that are actually just just what's
Speaker 1: it called dedicated at like eleven, twelve, thirteen, They're really
Speaker 1: fucking weird.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was like, I'd rather go to school with
Speaker 2: like normal teenagers.
Speaker 1: And I switched to playing football my junior year of
Speaker 1: high school and I played in college.
Speaker 3: You started playing football junior year of high school. I
Speaker 3: went to college.
Speaker 2: I played once.
Speaker 1: I played in like seventh grades, third but hey did
Speaker 1: and then I stopped because I played tennis. And then
Speaker 1: I was like, well, I want to go to an
Speaker 1: IVY League school and I got to see in Spanish,
Speaker 1: and I figured, I'm fashioning these white kids. So I
Speaker 1: played football.
Speaker 3: That's great, I was, but it worked, you know.
Speaker 2: But we talked about we've talked about that a lot
Speaker 2: in terms of comedy, that they're like to be successful
Speaker 2: in certain spaces, you do have to have a little
Speaker 2: bit of that.
Speaker 3: Definitely, definitely to be nuts.
Speaker 2: It's not comics. Yeah, I think any any person who's like,
Speaker 2: truly wants to be great at something has to become
Speaker 2: sad to the point of their dedication. Agreed, Yeah, there
Speaker 2: we go. The king is not function, human being, not being.
Speaker 1: That picture of Oprah Michael Jackson is fucking sending me yea,
Speaker 1: the salt and pepper of dysfunction.
Speaker 2: That's just two fine sick people.
Speaker 1: That's just that's just two fine sisters picking up man.
Speaker 4: Look about hope, hope in their eyes. Though you see
Speaker 4: hope in his eyes. I feel like in nineteen ninety two,
Speaker 4: Michael Jackson felt unkillable, you see, hoping that he was
Speaker 4: a bleached Michael he was. I think he was that big.
Speaker 2: I actually fully disagree. I think absolutely he was that big,
Speaker 2: but I think he had reached a big that there
Speaker 2: was nothing above it, And I don't think that that
Speaker 2: leaves hope in your eyes. I don't know. Maybe hope
Speaker 2: is not what i'm maybe maybe maybe it's life.
Speaker 1: It might be because he's because he's Yeah.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's just that he's alive. Maybe it's just that
Speaker 2: he's not dead in that photo.
Speaker 4: I do feel like there is that satisfaction of feeling
Speaker 4: unkillable at least for two three years that he probably had.
Speaker 2: What year is that?
Speaker 1: Because that's this feels like Opra one. This is that's
Speaker 1: like eighty nine, ninety ninety.
Speaker 2: This is like dangerous or dangerous.
Speaker 1: That's a pre first weight watchers Oprah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but post this is this is she's a big
Speaker 4: post bad yea, right, this is dangerous.
Speaker 1: I said dangerous are bad?
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, because when the Oprah get huge, Yeah, that's
Speaker 4: that's bad.
Speaker 2: Era is that is that? That's dangerous, that's dangerous. I
Speaker 2: thought dangerous was like Nigeria Liberian Girl.
Speaker 1: I think that's this girl's a deep cut.
Speaker 3: I don't so also, keep it in the closet, loved
Speaker 3: that song.
Speaker 1: Also, what was the one when Naomi canmble in the
Speaker 1: video Iberian Iberian Girl?
Speaker 2: No, keep it in the closet.
Speaker 3: He's black and white. The video is black and white, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, little video I've ever witnessed.
Speaker 4: It's so funny watching him in horny videos because he
Speaker 4: still just never believed it.
Speaker 2: And I think it's what I think, it's what made
Speaker 2: it almost like hornier. Was like it was a man
Speaker 2: trying to prove that he was horny. And then and
Speaker 2: so she had to like show more just to make
Speaker 2: up for that absolute most She's like, just don't look
Speaker 2: over there.
Speaker 4: Return no, because when he talks to him, like do
Speaker 4: you remember the what's the video where he's following the
Speaker 4: woman just like yellow ass.
Speaker 2: He made me feel the way you make me feel,
Speaker 2: which was just stalking. Yeah, he's just on the street, the.
Speaker 1: Man committing crimes and it being like that's romantic. Followed
Speaker 1: her home so she literally.
Speaker 2: Like walks around a car and then he climbs through
Speaker 2: the windows.
Speaker 1: Or thriller where he just basically turns into a zombie
Speaker 1: and kills her.
Speaker 4: That that's what he smiles at us, like we marked
Speaker 4: this home. We all like we got her, we got her,
Speaker 4: black woman, king of pop music, you know, the king
Speaker 4: of pop music.
Speaker 2: So so yes, welfare, so welfare with this question of welfare. Yes,
Speaker 2: you this is something you obviously have have some knowledge about.
Speaker 2: Do you feel like this is something that we all
Speaker 2: accept as fact? Is this is this known well in
Speaker 2: the circles you run in.
Speaker 1: I think in the circles I run in just because
Speaker 1: my parents were very like politically active in like the
Speaker 1: eighties and nineties when I was little, and then that
Speaker 1: was coming off of Reaganomics and the whole idea of
Speaker 1: like the Walfare Queen and the examples that like Reagan
Speaker 1: would make about you know, specifically black women scamming this
Speaker 1: system that especially in tandem with civil rights. So I
Speaker 1: think the idea of the Walfare Queen while creating more
Speaker 1: examples of people on welfare. During the time when black
Speaker 1: people were integrating schools, getting into jobs, it wasn't cool
Speaker 1: in the culture to be openly racist anymore. Although that's
Speaker 1: coming back.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think it's cool, but I miss racist
Speaker 4: original recipe because like, show your face coward, if you're
Speaker 4: wearing a mask, you kind of ultimately know you're wrong, right,
Speaker 4: be proud.
Speaker 2: Be a proud boy.
Speaker 4: Problem like blatantly racist people more than like when they
Speaker 4: do that. I think that's what happens, especially within like
Speaker 4: liberal circles a lot where they do this kind of like.
Speaker 1: The dance dirty game of like it.
Speaker 4: Like it's like, you don't even think I'm a person
Speaker 4: now he's scared enough to have a gun.
Speaker 2: That video, that video where that man's calling that lady
Speaker 2: a nigger wearing the Burger King crown on the light.
Speaker 2: This wild you guys, you say, it's the funniest thing
Speaker 2: I've ever seen in my life because he's just so
Speaker 2: crazy and just being vile in a way that like
Speaker 2: you don't get to see anymore, Like people don't just
Speaker 2: show who they are in a wrong way anymore. It really,
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just it's hit.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, it's like you want to walk around
Speaker 1: in a mask and it's like, for why, my guy, Yeah,
Speaker 1: don't you want us to know.
Speaker 2: You we hate you like hate. We can just stay
Speaker 2: away from each other. Yeah, why?
Speaker 1: Because Also because now nowadays racist white they want to
Speaker 1: like listen to rap music that's the cognitive and this
Speaker 1: that fucks me or y'all want to like use a
Speaker 1: a ve like clapping back, you know, clap back as
Speaker 1: a jaw rules aw you're quoting us the n word,
Speaker 1: like every time I see like people dot com be
Speaker 1: like Jennifer Lawrence claps back. No, she didn't clap. That
Speaker 1: means you're killing somebody in a drug. I don't think
Speaker 1: she claps much anything.
Speaker 3: I'll say it.
Speaker 2: Jennifer Lawn. Yeah, she used to have a donkey back there.
Speaker 2: She has two babies. She's she's clearly clapping something. She
Speaker 2: has two children. It was clapping.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. Again, heterosexual sex is of
Speaker 1: no interest to me, so I'm not sure. And that's fair,
Speaker 1: that's fair, that's fair. You guys are gross. I don't
Speaker 1: like the way you're saying.
Speaker 2: I don't love it. Your sex results in babies for
Speaker 2: some reason. Quite frankly, I'm interested in what you guys
Speaker 2: are doing.
Speaker 5: It too.
Speaker 1: If you're all having but sex would be a lot
Speaker 1: less children. I'm just gonna say that I.
Speaker 2: Respect what you got, going on to ask you to
Speaker 2: respect what we've got, will I will not?
Speaker 1: I won't.
Speaker 3: I appreciate the frequency which you guys are operating for right.
Speaker 2: What's doing it.
Speaker 1: That's what I got it, that's what we gotta have. Also,
Speaker 1: we were talking about this on the podcast too. We
Speaker 1: have to I have to have a gay doctor, because
Speaker 1: when you tell straight doctors what they're judging, I had,
Speaker 1: I didn't respect myself and I was like, you're a
Speaker 1: dumb virgin who can't drive.
Speaker 8: Wow.
Speaker 1: I was like, you're a prude bitch, and I never
Speaker 1: want to see you again. That's pretty Like, how dare you?
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm taking my things. Damn, I will
Speaker 1: be taking this lacroix.

Speaker 4: Sometimes talking to you. It makes you feel like I've
Speaker 4: never been to the doctor. I've never had my doctor.
Speaker 1: Oh no, truly, especially what time of the year it is,
Speaker 1: and it's like, what drugs have you done? How many
Speaker 1: partners have you had? I'm like, yeah, hold time, your
Speaker 1: drugs change from the time of the year. Is it
Speaker 1: like you are drug you don't you want to talk out? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like I mean, it's like if you're at a festival,
Speaker 1: you do like shrooms or molly. If you're else, if
Speaker 1: you're like the bees are a Paris different, they have
Speaker 1: a whole different category of drugs they after you go
Speaker 1: into like boiler rooms, different.
Speaker 3: No drugs in Paris. I ain't smoke hash.
Speaker 2: What you doing sleeping?
Speaker 4: Just charmed by the beautiful city. People just start walking around.
Speaker 4: Oh I did smoke weed I brought, but it was
Speaker 4: like that I brought. Was you going to set the
Speaker 4: music or any of that?
Speaker 3: I went to the Loup for six hours by myself.
Speaker 2: You so you were high? Yeah, okay, what are you talking?
Speaker 2: It was one of the best stings of my life.
Speaker 1: Honestly, and being in a Paris museum high go to
Speaker 1: the next time, go to Merced the old train station.
Speaker 1: It's got all it's like six floors of art. It's
Speaker 1: like almost like a science place. Like they cut the
Speaker 1: palais in half and you can see how the opera works,
Speaker 1: but on like a ten foot model of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: They have all kinds of like African art statues that
Speaker 1: will honestly make it'll activate your black rage around floor
Speaker 1: four because it's like.
Speaker 2: You does do that to me after a bit where
Speaker 2: you're like wait, fuck, then.
Speaker 1: You're like wait, why is every black man in the
Speaker 1: statue got chains on it?
Speaker 2: Like fighting an alligator? Hey, I'll say this. I'll say
Speaker 2: this if you boys want to learn anything about Maywood, Illinois.
Speaker 2: You asked me question, where is first Starters? Somewhere?
Speaker 1: She went to lim Blue High Okay in the south side. Okay,
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, my sister lived there for a while. That's
Speaker 1: beautiful in South eighthn Michigan.
Speaker 2: Do you come from a conspiratorial background? Do you? Do
Speaker 2: you consider yourself a conspiracy theorist? No?
Speaker 1: But I consider myself inquisitive. And I feel like a
Speaker 1: lot of what is taught to us as American history,
Speaker 1: as a black person, you end up learning is propaganda.
Speaker 1: So I feel like conspiracy is usually when white people
Speaker 1: use it a euphemism for like truth telling in some capacity,
Speaker 1: like I'm not like not like a Pizzagate person, or
Speaker 1: like I'm not like a Terrence Howard two plus two
Speaker 1: is I haven't mentioned math.
Speaker 2: Pay careful, that's our guy. I should leave.
Speaker 3: Take a bullet for that man.
Speaker 2: I'll take a bullet to talk to him and then
Speaker 2: regret my choice. You would take a well to talk
Speaker 2: to him.
Speaker 1: I think I think he called once and what what
Speaker 1: did he have to say?
Speaker 2: Nothing?
Speaker 4: Goods were about to change. But he wanted us to
Speaker 4: change the poster.
Speaker 2: No, he didn't care. To his credit, he didn't care
Speaker 2: about changing that poster. He said it should say he
Speaker 2: said it should say this. But but Brandon T. Jackson,
Speaker 2: who was our liaison, cared deeply about that because it's proprietary,
Speaker 2: he said, and.
Speaker 3: He did say that word.
Speaker 2: He wants that to be a massive income for him
Speaker 2: and the poster. Yeah, posters like T shirts.
Speaker 4: I think patents, well, he wanted he wants he said,
Speaker 4: said ninety.
Speaker 2: Ninety's because he recognizes that he in fact has far
Speaker 2: more patents than than ninety nine. But he's willing to
Speaker 2: say ninety nine because of the joke. But then he
Speaker 2: wants it to say, but fake math ain't one because
Speaker 2: he's the real man, not the fake man.
Speaker 1: Okay, your rebuttal Okay. Plus he was four Terrence, so
Speaker 1: you know it's one time one is too. I went
Speaker 1: to kindergarten.
Speaker 4: And that's his big point, is the one times one
Speaker 4: is too.
Speaker 2: It's the beginning of the conversation and the end of it. Really,
Speaker 2: if I were involved, if you guys are going to
Speaker 2: have a nasty attitude, this won't continue. You know. I
Speaker 2: I loved him an Empire to you know.
Speaker 4: I really had fun watching Empire put me first, Lucius.
Speaker 3: I loved him. And all those talented Smolette kids.
Speaker 2: They're gray, they really, they are grey.
Speaker 1: I met Journey Slett in Paris also really, yes, I
Speaker 1: went to the Louis Vuitton show. Is Cynthia Rivo and
Speaker 1: every like fabulous black woman I'd ever met in the
Speaker 1: world was there. I believe that it was like a
Speaker 1: different as Zendaya, Cynthia Rivo, Journey Smolett, Ryan Destiny.
Speaker 2: This is just like on a Wednesday. I mean, because
Speaker 2: I walked out for.
Speaker 3: The Vaiton store in Paris, nobody was there.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 1: That was one crazy day because it was like it
Speaker 1: was like you know the days got home training, because
Speaker 1: she came up and it was like all the black
Speaker 1: women and she was like nice to me that she
Speaker 1: was nice to see you again. I was like, you've
Speaker 1: never met me, but I love that You're like it's
Speaker 1: black with the black people we probably met like black.
Speaker 2: I bet she doesn't say meet you to anyone person. Anyone.
Speaker 2: She probably says see you. I think that is a
Speaker 2: machine smart that will never make an error. No, as
Speaker 2: long she's.
Speaker 4: Kind of perfect, like for what she does, it's perfect. No,
Speaker 4: she's never she's not playing.
Speaker 2: She's not playing. She's teflon don right now.
Speaker 4: Honestly though, I used to feel that way about a
Speaker 4: lot of people who have been unraveling at the end.
Speaker 3: Smith, but his brother was perfect.
Speaker 2: I kind of like that he hit Chris Rock. That's
Speaker 2: the best thing of all this. Yeah, that's not what
Speaker 2: I I don't think. I don't think.
Speaker 1: You guys like pretty girls, girls girls. I just blocked
Speaker 1: that out all the freestyle I think, I think, but
Speaker 1: I've honestly been blocking I think everything from what.
Speaker 2: I was like, what do you mean guys? That is
Speaker 2: how I'm people.
Speaker 1: When you mentioned new album, I'm just like my brain,
Speaker 1: I delete, I move, I think everything.
Speaker 2: I think the slap was the eye of the storm.
Speaker 2: I think everything before that, the Red Table. The way
Speaker 2: up to the slap was a nightmare to watch. It
Speaker 2: was the Red Table talk. Oh man, that was hard.
Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like if more straight couples
Speaker 1: got with the whole, like, look, we're gonna fuck up
Speaker 1: the people. Sometimes we were each other's emotional number one.
Speaker 1: We're building a life together, that's what we're doing. I think, like,
Speaker 1: I mean, basically, almost every gay married couple is out
Speaker 1: here for other people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they didn't do it like you're described. Yeah
Speaker 2: you did here. They they expose dirt that meant something
Speaker 2: to the public in a in a jarring way.
Speaker 1: But again it didn't mean anything to me. Well, you
Speaker 1: just likely what meant? What do you want to You
Speaker 1: just want the road funk up. You want to.
Speaker 2: Be a pay person. You want us to give a
Speaker 2: ship that will Smith's unraveled in front of us. Let
Speaker 2: it go, let it go, let it go, fuck them up,
Speaker 2: punch your doctor. Don't you don't have children, don't.
Speaker 9: Mean in Paris, nothing is wrong but why you kids,
Speaker 9: You're like abandon them all. The doctor is such a
Speaker 9: crazy way to live your life, as they gave way
Speaker 9: to live a life gay guys.
Speaker 3: To punch your doctors.
Speaker 1: Emotionally, emotion emotionally, every every game man is called the
Speaker 1: doctor a bitch.
Speaker 2: Here's here's to her face. Okay, here's the pro facts.
Speaker 4: Here I text the four Gigs, Solomon. I never called
Speaker 4: your doctor a bitch. We lived together for a while,
Speaker 4: an ugly virgin who can't drive.
Speaker 2: That's crazy, that's awesome, that's crazy. It don't work together anymore.
Speaker 2: Here's my promise to you. Yes, I'm not gonna suck it,
Speaker 2: but okay, but I will try my best to punch
Speaker 2: a doctor at some point, just like.
Speaker 1: That, Just like insult a doctor, insult a white doctor, man,
Speaker 1: do you know? Or just question them constantly, like do
Speaker 1: you know what you're doing? Where'd you go to school?
Speaker 1: Just just gas like them, you wanted to gaslight a
Speaker 1: white doctor.
Speaker 2: Because it always feels like it's the reverse.
Speaker 4: It really is, you heard and dark skinned they. I'm like,
Speaker 4: I just take some more pictures of your.
Speaker 2: Playing basketball?
Speaker 1: Can you still sling that rock bro?
Speaker 2: That ship?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I fuck I do hating going to the doctor.
Speaker 2: That's just unless you were physically bleeding out.
Speaker 4: They're like you, I never have gotten real like pain
Speaker 4: pills in a major way. Really, even when I got
Speaker 4: my wisdom teeth pulled. My stepdad went to the same
Speaker 4: exact doctor at the same time, and I got like
Speaker 4: ten pills and he got like I.
Speaker 1: Woke up during the surgery and they tried to charge
Speaker 1: me for having to redo the anesthesia.
Speaker 2: Holy shit.
Speaker 10: And you know, exactly like a white doctor. Because you
Speaker 10: know what, guys, you're not doing a good job. You're
Speaker 10: doing a shitty job.
Speaker 4: All.
Speaker 2: If you're doing a shitty job, you suck. I'm going
Speaker 2: to kill Serena Williams. We need to take a break.
Speaker 2: I think things have lost controlling. I think some nasty
Speaker 2: things are being said about some fine folks. No, no,
Speaker 2: we agree. Why doctors stopping that said? We're gonna take
Speaker 2: a break. We're gonna come back and we'll talk more
Speaker 2: more Blakely Thornton more. My mama told me we we
Speaker 2: we are still talking about welfare and whether or not
Speaker 2: it is a It was created. The entire system, in fact,
Speaker 2: was created to keep black men out of the home. Now,
Speaker 2: I did some research on the subject that I'd love
Speaker 2: to send your way, and and y'all feel free to
Speaker 2: tell me what makes sense and what doesn't.
Speaker 4: I am I do want to say just to ask
Speaker 4: about this because of the size of welfare fair and
Speaker 4: because it's such a classiest thing, do you feel like
Speaker 4: the entire are you saying that the entire program was
Speaker 4: specifically it was retooled after it's formation because it directly
Speaker 4: target Because I believe the inception was after like the
Speaker 4: Great Depression, to kind of help families and give a
Speaker 4: social saption net for everybody.
Speaker 1: I believe it was weaponized post civil rights and primarily
Speaker 1: by the Reagan administration with the development of the term
Speaker 1: welfare queen to then promote the idea of black women
Speaker 1: gaming the system while the men were not there. So
Speaker 1: I think, in tandem with probably aggressive policing and other laws,
Speaker 1: like the marketing of welfare was designed to present an
Speaker 1: image of a black man not being in the home
Speaker 1: as standard.
Speaker 2: Well, well, here's what I'll tell you that that is true, okay,
Speaker 2: but it isn't limited to like the Reagan era of this. So,
Speaker 2: like the welfare system, as you explained, starts post Great Depression.
Speaker 2: A boy Franklin D. Roosevelt shows up and he's like,
Speaker 2: I'm going to retool the whole deal. It's it's nineteen
Speaker 2: thirty six, so it's it's pre New Deal or I
Speaker 2: don't know. I'm not a historian and I'm not gonna
Speaker 2: look it up. I was honestly scared to say a
Speaker 2: new deal. I was like, man, this show was in
Speaker 2: the eighties. I'm about to feel like I think one
Speaker 2: way or the other. He goes, because the support system
Speaker 2: that previously existed was states specific and local before that,
Speaker 2: so it was a bunch of groups being like, we'll
Speaker 2: just take care of our own. But then when the
Speaker 2: Industrial Revolution happens people move to cities, they stopped being
Speaker 2: able to just take care of their own because of
Speaker 2: how the numbers grow a number of people exactly, and
Speaker 2: so they start counting on the states. But the states
Speaker 2: are allotting money and basically being like, this is emergency only.
Speaker 2: You can't touch this shit unless you really, for real,
Speaker 2: for real need it. And then it isn't until the
Speaker 2: wake of the Great Depression where everybody needs it and
Speaker 2: no state can help that the the the national federal Hey,
Speaker 2: we got to help and they create a system that
Speaker 2: is ultimately welfare. Now here's where it gets interesting is
Speaker 2: that part of that that ultimatum that they created for
Speaker 2: welfare was employment. You had to be either you had
Speaker 2: to have a job or you had to be working
Speaker 2: towards the job. But because black people were specifically forced
Speaker 2: into jobs where they were largely being paid in cash
Speaker 2: and off the books, they had no way of demonstrating
Speaker 2: that they had work. And then there was an intentional
Speaker 2: effort to keep them, an active effort to keep them
Speaker 2: in that way so that they could not then be like,
Speaker 2: I am I haven't qualified for yeah. Right. So then
Speaker 2: this is where it gets even nastier, is that part
Speaker 2: of the propaganda that they spend is that they go
Speaker 2: they're obsessed with welfare, they can't get enough of welfare.
Speaker 2: All the while, these motherfuckers can't even get on welfare
Speaker 2: because they ain't got the jobs. Yeah, it's nasty work,
Speaker 2: it's targeted. Yeah, they're like, look at these thirsty motherfuckers
Speaker 2: taking up all your dollars and dimes and they can't
Speaker 2: even access this ship.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and black people have never been like the majority
Speaker 3: of welfare.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not even close at all.
Speaker 1: No, So again, you know, the propaganda of it all
Speaker 1: is a bit I really don't like it. I think it,
Speaker 1: but again, I think it's promoted to keep that idea
Speaker 1: in white people's heads almost more so than actually keep
Speaker 1: black people out of homes. I think that's more just
Speaker 1: like the traditional racial profile and killing black men and
Speaker 1: you know, keeping them unemployed.
Speaker 2: Thing, Yeah, more direct methods.
Speaker 1: And then this, I think the idea of welfare and
Speaker 1: of the welfare queeness essentially was then I need to
Speaker 1: keep the idea that like the.
Speaker 2: Black home is broken, yeah black man.
Speaker 1: And I think that's very powerful because when we see
Speaker 1: that a standard, it becomes a self filling prophecy.
Speaker 3: Definitely.
Speaker 2: I think I think so much about like the the
Speaker 2: the early transitions of like a post slavery racism, right
Speaker 2: were like after slavery, the best thing that they could
Speaker 2: come up with as propaganda for how to pitch black
Speaker 2: people as like not good was to say we were lazy.
Speaker 2: Now we're not slaves. Now we're lazy. Yeah, we're fucking
Speaker 2: everybody's a coon who's sitting around eating watermelon, lazing around whatever.
Speaker 2: And then that's that version of propaganda starts to not work.
Speaker 2: The way they wanted to because of changes in voting,
Speaker 2: changes and opportunities in the country whatever. So they amp
Speaker 2: it up and they go these motherfuckers violent. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: they crazy. They all got switch blades in their pockets. Shit,
Speaker 2: I do carry a switchblade.
Speaker 4: Okay, I believe that. I also con see you being
Speaker 4: a gun guy, and that's no disrespect.
Speaker 1: No, no, I'm not a gun guy. My family, I mean,
Speaker 1: they were Texan. I'm very much anti gun, but like,
Speaker 1: I don't like them. I've shot one a couple times
Speaker 1: at a rand. But my sister, like, there was a
Speaker 1: bit somebody they went to a ranch for a girls
Speaker 1: sixteen thing. They were just like shooting machine. Gus was like,
Speaker 1: g I Jane.
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, she's like, like swat.
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, So my family is quick with
Speaker 1: a gun. I think they're good with one. I'm more
Speaker 1: of like an up close and stab person. You like it,
Speaker 1: you like it to be intimate, intimate, personal, It is personal.
Speaker 1: I want to like see the light go out in
Speaker 1: your eyes.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 4: I've always said it feels a lot more violent to
Speaker 4: like slash than it does the pultry right to like
Speaker 4: slash some on it.
Speaker 2: It's that's so violent. That's discuss is nasty.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: Switchblade that is slashing almost exclusively. You don't stab bellies
Speaker 2: with switch blade. I mean you can't slit a throat
Speaker 2: with a switch blade. Yeah, I think you're can have
Speaker 2: like a mixed green salad.
Speaker 1: Yeah, or like you know, like you know, like you
Speaker 1: like chop ice, Like do you know.
Speaker 2: You're doing that so close to me? They were like,
Speaker 2: you know, like they take it in.
Speaker 1: That and then because you already that to the ice
Speaker 1: and just watch the ice on the street.
Speaker 3: We all just want to feel something at the end.
Speaker 2: Of the day.
Speaker 3: Everybody does that. Yeah, everybody just we just want to feel.
Speaker 2: We just want to feel. It's a beautiful, beautiful way
Speaker 2: to put it. Before we take another break, let me
Speaker 2: ask you this question as you think about all of
Speaker 2: this stuff, because this is obviously a very heavy subject
Speaker 2: and it doesn't leave a lot of hope, at least
Speaker 2: in my mind. It reminds me, frankly, a lot of
Speaker 2: like our current which I think is important to say.
Speaker 2: It is the exact problem that we are facing down
Speaker 2: with healthcare right that, like government funded healthcare is now
Speaker 2: about to be put behind this weird wall where people
Speaker 2: are going to have to like basically right in to
Speaker 2: explain what they do for a living and how they
Speaker 2: how they made money in order to qualify for Medicare Medicaid,
Speaker 2: And in doing that, you're putting a bunch of people
Speaker 2: in a position where either they can't justify making money
Speaker 2: or they aren't able to write you because they don't
Speaker 2: have access to computers and don't understand the time.
Speaker 1: That's all design too, ye know.
Speaker 4: I feel like if you if you oh you talk
Speaker 4: about in the BBB, Yeah, part of the beautiful Billy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they got that designed, they got that. It's all.
Speaker 2: But that's why they're like.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, yeah, that's what they said they were
Speaker 1: going to do. They want us, They want you like stupid, hungry, misinformed,
Speaker 1: and sick. Like it's easier to It's an uneducated populace
Speaker 1: is easily controlled, and an uneducated populace that is sick
Speaker 1: is even easier. So it's like, I think the through
Speaker 1: line that's kind of the silver lining is when you
Speaker 1: do these things before you didn't, like, even though the
Speaker 1: Internet is probably chaotic neutral, it's like we can see
Speaker 1: in other countries that healthcare is just a right, like
Speaker 1: people just get taken care of. Like my friends that
Speaker 1: aren't from here. It's cheap for them to fly home
Speaker 1: first class to go to the doctor, like my friends
Speaker 1: from Japan. She's like, she had to get a knee surgery.
Speaker 1: She flew to Japan a first ticket and hotel and
Speaker 1: was cheaper than the option of getting surgery in America.
Speaker 2: Crazy.
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, I think seeing that before you
Speaker 1: could have kept people kind of isolated. But now it's
Speaker 1: like you can see what's happening in other parts of
Speaker 1: the country and other parts of the world, which I
Speaker 1: think will ultimately be of benefit. I think Martin Luther
Speaker 1: King said it like the moral arc of the universe
Speaker 1: is long, but it bends towards justice, Like I'm still
Speaker 1: waiting for that.
Speaker 2: Justice bend to come. You know, shorty string my way,
Speaker 2: You're the first I've ever seen quote doctor King while
Speaker 2: rolling their eyes. I don't know this motherfucker said something like.
Speaker 4: I guess some ship. I think you're the first person
Speaker 4: in a pair of doctor King with I don't know
Speaker 4: what the just happened. Oh my god, I was gonna
Speaker 4: say a KP and envy quote and then you know, no.
Speaker 2: It would have been great.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I really like that song. A great songs,
Speaker 4: really good. What happened to them? Probably drugs? There was
Speaker 4: a white one.
Speaker 2: She was really light skinned.
Speaker 1: I watch video the other day. Yeah that the girl
Speaker 1: from Sinners was the girl from Sinners and show the swing.
Speaker 2: Breaking. We're gonna come back and we're gonna do a
Speaker 2: voicemail together. Okay more Blake Lee Thornton More. My mama
Speaker 2: told me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, look, if you hate cops just because of cops,
Speaker 5: the next time you get in trouble, call a crackhead.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, don't call us, we don't care. We're back.
Speaker 3: Actually call us. So we're gonna do a voicemailer.
Speaker 2: The colors A four four Little Moms if you ever
Speaker 2: want to send us a voicemail, and we're going to
Speaker 2: do one together. Now here we go. I landed on
Speaker 2: something that that sparked my interests. Who knows what the
Speaker 2: fuck it is. We'll listen to it together.
Speaker 8: Hey, y'all, first time caller, only recent listener. I love
Speaker 8: your podcast. I have a conspiracy that I don't know
Speaker 8: it's been brought up in the show before because I
Speaker 8: haven't seen all the episodes. My conspiracy dates back to
Speaker 8: twenty twenty one, shortly after this whole big thing of
Speaker 8: a chicken wing shortage happening. I'm not sure if y'all
Speaker 8: remember that, but suddenly stop.
Speaker 3: Comes up too much.
Speaker 2: Literally just yesterday we talked about it.
Speaker 4: Literally yesterday there was a shortage the demonstrating COVID.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, right, yeah, yeah, And this brother wants you
Speaker 2: to open your eyes about it.
Speaker 3: No, he's gonna go somewhere with it.
Speaker 2: Let's let's sebody say.
Speaker 8: Wing Stop started selling chicken thighs, and then after the
Speaker 8: chicken thigh movement disappeared, wing Stop then starts to sell wings.
Speaker 8: So my conspiracy is about seventy five percent, at least
Speaker 8: seventy five percent of the chicken wings sold in the
Speaker 8: US since twenty twenty have not been that of the
Speaker 8: wings of a chicken, because a lot of them no
Speaker 8: longer say chicken wings. They just say wings.
Speaker 2: Whoa wait, So what what's the wing? Wing of what? Yeah?
Speaker 2: The wing of what he's putting that on? Oh that's
Speaker 2: he's Look man, I'm not a scientist, but you are.
Speaker 3: I also love the chicken thigh movement.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the chicken thigh movement. I think the primary issue
Speaker 1: with this caller is that ninety percent of their meals
Speaker 1: are at wingstop.
Speaker 2: Let's go. He didn't know it.
Speaker 4: That is a crazy thing to notice. He's like, notice
Speaker 4: they stopped saying chicken wings. I'm like, no, I didn't.
Speaker 2: Stop. Stop.
Speaker 1: I think you need to take it up with Rick
Speaker 1: Ross Oross the box.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what the fuck is going on there? Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 8: I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's called chicken or not chicken.
Speaker 2: Just uh, just be eating it.
Speaker 1: I look at labels, so I do, and I would
Speaker 1: encourage everyone to go to the grocery store and cook
Speaker 1: a meal.
Speaker 2: Was the last time you had some chicken wings two.
Speaker 1: Days ago and made them chicken wings?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, what do you buy?
Speaker 3: Like a bag full of bagful of d get backful
Speaker 3: of drumats?
Speaker 1: Yeah, like Trader Joe's or like Whole Foods unfortunately sometimes Yeah.
Speaker 2: I try not to go to anywhere Amazon own. But
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Now, do shut the up?
Speaker 2: Shut the fuck up. Do any of us know for
Speaker 2: sure why that wing shortage happened? What was the cause
Speaker 2: of the wings short No? I don't know.
Speaker 4: I just I remember feverishly texting with a friend of mine,
Speaker 4: like we are.
Speaker 1: I thought it was something about actually just the logistics
Speaker 1: of like getting a farmer's getting produced to places without
Speaker 1: touching anyone. I think it was like a COVID lag
Speaker 1: of just logistics and everything, like breaking down the chicken
Speaker 1: that cluse that like, even though it was I'm sure
Speaker 1: it's wildly mechanized at this point, but I think it
Speaker 1: was just logistics of I think also birds were getting COVID,
Speaker 1: were they not?
Speaker 2: It says it was largely a supply chain labor issue,
