0:00:55.920 --> 0:01:00.680
<v Speaker 1>is good. Well, yesterday I smoked cigars for the first time, congratulating. Yeah,

0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:02.360
<v Speaker 1>it's a weird thing. I had to film something at

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:05.200
<v Speaker 1>the cigar bar in Jersey and Scotch playing high end cigars.

0:01:05.720 --> 0:01:08.880
<v Speaker 1>So I got a little cigar education, okay, and then

0:01:09.240 --> 0:01:11.759
<v Speaker 1>smoked a couple of cigars for the first time. Did

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 1>you like it? It was okay? You know what I'm

0:01:14.680 --> 0:01:17.400
<v Speaker 1>used to like feeling like cigars stink and they're terrible,

0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 1>but these were not. You know, I guess if you

0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:22.240
<v Speaker 1>picked like some good ones, it was sweet tasting, it

0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 1>wasn't too bad. I don't know that it's like my thing,

0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 1>but at least I know about it, Okay, you know,

0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:31.240
<v Speaker 1>all right? Well I was out of course. The book,

0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:33.399
<v Speaker 1>my book, Me and My Wife' book, I should say,

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:36.200
<v Speaker 1>comes out April nineteenth. So we're starting press. So I've

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:38.520
<v Speaker 1>been doing press all day yesterday. Yesterday I did fourteen

0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:41.360
<v Speaker 1>interviews and then we start hitting the road. So we'll

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:44.319
<v Speaker 1>be if you have a bookstore, one of your favorite bookstores,

0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 1>and you would like us to stop by so we

0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:47.720
<v Speaker 1>could talk about the book. It's a relationship book, all

0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:50.720
<v Speaker 1>about things what to do in the marriage and things

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:53.800
<v Speaker 1>not to do in a marriage or relationship. So I

0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:55.920
<v Speaker 1>know we're going to Mahogany Books in DC. I know

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 1>we're going to Bookends and Ridgewood. I know we're going

0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 1>to the La Book Festival in La. So if there's

0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.160
<v Speaker 1>any bookstore out there that you want us to come by,

0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.880
<v Speaker 1>we are coming to different cities and we are doing

0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:09.040
<v Speaker 1>it just like a artists will do an album. We're

0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:10.640

0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.280
<v Speaker 1>city and hopefully talking to as many people as possible.

0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:15.679
<v Speaker 1>We're super duper excited about this book. If you haven't

<v Speaker 1>excited about that. So that was my day yesterday, me

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 1>and the White's day Yesterday. My day were spent in

0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:27.040
<v Speaker 1>front of the television. I've been watching a lot of TV.

0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:30.680
<v Speaker 1>There's some great show of course, Abbott Elementary is great,

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:35.519
<v Speaker 1>super Pumped on Showtime, It's about Uber that's fantastic, Moon

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Night is fantastic, and Winning Time. The story of the

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Lakers is great. But the highlight of my day yesterday, Okay,

0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:44.799
<v Speaker 1>because for the past couple of months still is It's

0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:48.080

0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 1>don't talk about Bruno. It's just everything is in conto.

<v Speaker 1>Everything's in random and conto videos and Contour on Roadblock

0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:57.960

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>year old to watch Lion King and she enjoyed it. No,

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 1>it's it's definitely gonna still be in Conto. My six

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:07.440
<v Speaker 1>year old still working on her when Lion King and

0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:10.919

0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 1>and Nola from the hyenas. But she was so intrigued.

0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:17.720
<v Speaker 1>You know how. I know she was intrigued because when

0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:19.000
<v Speaker 1>it was time for dinner, she didn't even want to

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>eat dinner. She wanted to continue to watch The Lion King.

0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:22.680
<v Speaker 1>And after she ate dinner, she was like, I want

0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:24.360
<v Speaker 1>to finish watching the Lion King. You said we'll finish

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:28.160

<v Speaker 1>I band in count from my car for the next

0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:32.119
<v Speaker 1>couple of days. Are you just a cruel father? Yeah?

0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I can't. I can't take it one time it's not

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 1>about you, bro, I could play it one time, it's

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:36.880
<v Speaker 1>not about you. One time I could play, but I

0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:39.000
<v Speaker 1>can't play it over it's not about you and over.

0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 1>This is the point that nobody have to sing along.

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 1>They even got the sing along in Conto on Disney,

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:45.720
<v Speaker 1>plus the way the kids can sing along with the song.

0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm tired of Bruno. I don't want to know who

0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Bruno is talking about you. Yes, it is the first

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 1>song selfish, I could take it. The second one I

0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>could take but ten times in a row. Whoa damn.

0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.920
<v Speaker 1>See I can see what I would hurt a little bit. Wow, See,

0:04:01.000 --> 0:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>I can't mess with you. One and two. Huh Gia

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Peppers will be joining us this morning, Yahia Peppers man.

0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:10.320
<v Speaker 1>And also we have somebody else joining us. Right, my

0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:13.880
<v Speaker 1>good brother Res Momenticum, the author of my Grandmother's Hands.

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:15.800
<v Speaker 1>He's got a new book coming out called The Quaking

0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.479
<v Speaker 1>of America. All right, yes, so let's get the show

0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:20.560
<v Speaker 1>cracking front page news. What we're talking about. Well, you

0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.080
<v Speaker 1>may have noticed that there's not a lot of kmarts

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:27.960
<v Speaker 1>around anymore, and once these last few kmarts closed down,

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>there will only be three left in the United States.

0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Walmart and Target just took Kmar out. I forgot all

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.840
<v Speaker 1>about Kamara. Don't disrespect Kmart, though, I forgot all about Kmar.

0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:39.600
<v Speaker 1>That's the original mark. You know how many there used

0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:43.480
<v Speaker 1>to be? How many? Two thousand three? What did they

0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:46.400
<v Speaker 1>do wrong? All right? All right, we'll get into that next.

0:04:46.400 --> 0:04:52.960
<v Speaker 1>It's the Breakfast Club. Go Morning, I'm talking morning. Everybody's

0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:57.440
<v Speaker 1>DJ Envy Angela yea, God, we are the Breakfast Club.

0:04:57.480 --> 0:05:01.240
<v Speaker 1>Let's get some front page news. NBA tonight starts to

0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:03.960
<v Speaker 1>play in tournament. I know on the East coast and

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:07.080
<v Speaker 1>the Brooklyness take on the Cavaliers. On the West coast.

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:12.320
<v Speaker 1>I think the Clippers take on the Spurs the Wolves there.

0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>All right, what else we got easy? All right? Well,

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:17.920
<v Speaker 1>kmart is naring extinction. After one of them is closing

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:20.200
<v Speaker 1>in New Jersey. They'll be down to only three Kmart's

0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:23.760
<v Speaker 1>in the continental United States. And so what they're saying is,

0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:26.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was a lot of competition in a

0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 1>world dominated by Walmart, Target and Amazon and kmarts. Decline

0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:35.640
<v Speaker 1>has been slow but steady. It's different shopping habits. Also,

0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:40.799
<v Speaker 1>Target has better and trendier offerings. Walmart has a lower prices.

0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 1>Kmart file for chapter eleven bankruptcy back in early two

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.360
<v Speaker 1>thousand and two. Then they try to combine series in

0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:49.520
<v Speaker 1>kmart and return them to their former greatness. But with

0:05:49.560 --> 0:05:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the recession and the rising dominance of Amazon, that's continued

0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:56.400
<v Speaker 1>to get derilled. And they're saying that, you know, the

0:05:56.560 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>CEO did not have a retail background. He was more

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.760
<v Speaker 1>interested in stripping off the assets of the two chains

0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:04.880
<v Speaker 1>for their cash value. They said Serious should have never

0:06:04.880 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 1>gone away. Kamart was in the worst shape, but not

0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:09.360
<v Speaker 1>fatally so. And now they are both gone. S is

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 1>going too. I had no idea. It's only the scrawn survive.

0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:15.520
<v Speaker 1>That's why nobody should get comfortable because I'm old enough

0:06:15.560 --> 0:06:18.400
<v Speaker 1>to remember when Kamarth mattered. I'm old enough to remember

0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.760
<v Speaker 1>when kmart was the only thing sports authority. I do

0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:27.200
<v Speaker 1>remember Sports Athority, Dick Sporting Goods probably, but I mean, honestly,

0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Amazon took over all of those places. Yeah, but you

0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:30.880
<v Speaker 1>want to try things on. You want to go to

0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:32.280
<v Speaker 1>DICKX and try it on. You want to you want

0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:33.760
<v Speaker 1>to play with the balls. You want to kick you

0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? You want to you want to

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:37.680
<v Speaker 1>go through that like who wants to get ordered that stuff.

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:39.719
<v Speaker 1>When I walked in and saw you in that salmon

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:41.360
<v Speaker 1>this morning, when I saw you in that pink, I

0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:42.839
<v Speaker 1>knew it was gonna be on the day. You know

0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:45.560
<v Speaker 1>we're going to try and I knew who. I knew

0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:47.360
<v Speaker 1>it was gonna be on with him today He got

0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:50.120
<v Speaker 1>his bid black today, got that paint on. They got

0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:51.960
<v Speaker 1>that pink and paint when ever you got that pink

0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>and paint on. It is going to be a party,

0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:59.920
<v Speaker 1>you hear me? All right? Well, Philadelphia has restored their

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:02.600
<v Speaker 1>indoor mask mandate as cases have been rising. It's the

0:07:02.640 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>first major US city to reinstate that indoor mask mandate.

0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 1>There's been a sharp increase in COVID infections. They're saying

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>that confirmed cases have risen more than fifty percent in

0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 1>ten days, and that is a threshold at which the

0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 1>city's guidelines call for people to wear masks indoors. So

0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 1>starting April eighteenth, health inspectors will begin to enforce that

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:24.360
<v Speaker 1>mask mandated city businesses. So coming back, well in Philadelphia

0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:28.040
<v Speaker 1>is the first place because cases rose fifty percent. Okay,

0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:31.680
<v Speaker 1>people dying though, if it's catching COVID, we know, I

0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>mean anytime there's more cases that people catch, because the

0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:37.560
<v Speaker 1>tentages will go up. I thought the new stream it

0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:39.000
<v Speaker 1>was saying it was a lot light of people were

0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:41.280

0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Everybody had a power, and his power was to tell

0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:24.439
<v Speaker 1>the feet through what he saw. And just like us,

0:11:24.520 --> 0:11:26.920

0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:49.640
<v Speaker 1>to do in reality. They don't want the truth tellers around.

<v Speaker 1>the room can be pitch dark, and when I walk in,

0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:46.359
<v Speaker 1>it's bright. Drop on a clues bomb for Djali DJ Khalid.

0:17:46.760 --> 0:17:49.679
<v Speaker 1>He also has that Jordan brand collaboration. I saw that

0:17:49.720 --> 0:17:52.200
<v Speaker 1>he has coming out, so that looks nice and colorful.

0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:55.320
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to Chris Smokes. So Kanye looking disgusted every

0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:57.920
<v Speaker 1>time Kali showed him one of the Jordan's I was

0:17:57.960 --> 0:18:01.160
<v Speaker 1>wondering if that's just because of the whole Adidas. I'm sure,

0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:03.359
<v Speaker 1>but this is like his third or fourth collaboration. So

0:18:03.400 --> 0:18:06.800
<v Speaker 1>shout to Caliman. What Callida is doing is amazing all right. Now.

0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:10.959
<v Speaker 1>Britney Spears has said that she's pregnant. She posted on Instagram.

0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:13.440
<v Speaker 1>I lost so much weight to go on my mouy chip,

0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:15.359
<v Speaker 1>only to gain it back. I thought, jeez, what happened

0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:18.000
<v Speaker 1>to my stomach? My husband said, no, you're food pregnant. Silly.

0:18:18.240 --> 0:18:20.440
<v Speaker 1>So I got a pregnancy test and well, I'm having

0:18:20.440 --> 0:18:22.560
<v Speaker 1>a baby. Four days later, I got a little more

0:18:22.560 --> 0:18:24.800
<v Speaker 1>food pregnant. It's growing. If two are in there, I

0:18:24.880 --> 0:18:26.840
<v Speaker 1>might just lose it. I obviously won't be going out

0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:29.840
<v Speaker 1>as much due to the paps getting their money shot

0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.680
<v Speaker 1>at me like they unfortunately already have. It's hard because

0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:35.439
<v Speaker 1>when I was pregnant, I had perinatal depression. I have

0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:38.200
<v Speaker 1>to say, it is absolutely horrible. Women didn't talk about

0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:40.679
<v Speaker 1>it back then. Some people considered it dangerous if a

0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:43.240
<v Speaker 1>woman complained like that with a baby inside her. But

0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:45.560
<v Speaker 1>now women talk about it every day. Think Jesus, we

0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:48.119
<v Speaker 1>don't have to keep that pain and reserved proper secret.

0:18:48.160 --> 0:18:50.480
<v Speaker 1>This time, I will be doing yoga every day, spreading

0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:53.000
<v Speaker 1>lots of joy and love. She has two other boys

0:18:53.480 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 1>or one another boy. Yeah, this is just her first

0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:59.399
<v Speaker 1>child with her She calls him her husband sometimes but

0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:04.840
<v Speaker 1>with Sam mess Gary, So congratulations to them, alright. A

0:19:05.000 --> 0:19:08.200
<v Speaker 1>love and hip hop movie is allegedly in the works.

0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:12.400
<v Speaker 1>This is an exclusive according to Jasmine Brand. Sources say

0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:14.679
<v Speaker 1>that the fictional project is in the early stages and

0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:18.119
<v Speaker 1>a script is currently being created. They're also saying some

0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:20.760
<v Speaker 1>of the creators of the reality franchise are involved with

0:19:20.800 --> 0:19:24.119
<v Speaker 1>production of this upcoming film. I saw that headline yesterday.

0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I wonder what that creative is, Like, Well, it's fictional,

0:19:29.080 --> 0:19:30.760
<v Speaker 1>but then I guess a lot of love and hip

0:19:30.800 --> 0:19:38.080
<v Speaker 1>hop kind of is also, so maybe it's some ye

0:19:38.160 --> 0:19:41.000
<v Speaker 1>how would they started? How would? Yeah? I'm curious as well,

0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:44.560
<v Speaker 1>all right now? Saturday Night Live comedian Molly Shannon has

0:19:44.560 --> 0:19:47.159
<v Speaker 1>a book out today. Her memoir is called Hello Molly,

0:19:47.680 --> 0:19:50.040
<v Speaker 1>and she talks about a lot of different things in there.

0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:52.879
<v Speaker 1>She talked about visiting la in nineteen eighty seven. She

0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:56.399
<v Speaker 1>had just gotten signed by Gary Coleman's agent, Mark Randall,

0:19:56.920 --> 0:19:59.639
<v Speaker 1>and she said he was hugely popular back then. He

0:19:59.640 --> 0:20:01.520
<v Speaker 1>had just up to sitcom. She said she was over

0:20:01.560 --> 0:20:04.760
<v Speaker 1>the moon, and she went out to dinner with her

0:20:04.800 --> 0:20:07.520
<v Speaker 1>agent and with Gary Coleman. She said that Coleman was

0:20:07.560 --> 0:20:09.679
<v Speaker 1>eighteen at the time, but very small because he had

0:20:09.720 --> 0:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>that kidney disease that limited his growth to four foot eight,

0:20:12.760 --> 0:20:15.560
<v Speaker 1>but he was extremely flirtatious. She said. We had a

0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:18.000
<v Speaker 1>great time laughing and joking, and then Gary Coleman asked

0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:19.960
<v Speaker 1>her if she wanted to see the presidential suite where

0:20:20.000 --> 0:20:22.240
<v Speaker 1>he was staying. She said. Once in the room, he

0:20:22.280 --> 0:20:24.240
<v Speaker 1>asked Shannon to sit on the bed. She said, the

0:20:24.280 --> 0:20:28.000
<v Speaker 1>possibility of something sexual occurring hadn't even crossed my mind.

0:20:28.040 --> 0:20:30.280
<v Speaker 1>Now I was an innocent virgin. Still, he was playful

0:20:30.320 --> 0:20:32.960
<v Speaker 1>at first, tickling me, trying to lie on top of me,

0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and smooched me. Then when I pushed him away and

0:20:35.040 --> 0:20:37.160
<v Speaker 1>stood up, Gary climbed up on the bed and jumped off,

0:20:37.240 --> 0:20:39.920
<v Speaker 1>using it as a springboard to launch himself to me,

0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:42.640
<v Speaker 1>kissing me wildly and sticking his little baby hands under

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:49.320
<v Speaker 1>my shirt. No, yeah, she said that. She pushed him away,

0:20:49.359 --> 0:20:52.239
<v Speaker 1>and she said that she was able to flip him

0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:54.720
<v Speaker 1>off the bed, but he repeatedly tried to kiss her. Finally,

0:20:54.760 --> 0:20:57.359
<v Speaker 1>she got up and he draped his whole body around

0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:00.480
<v Speaker 1>her calf, so she ended up dragging him across the floor,

0:21:01.040 --> 0:21:03.040
<v Speaker 1>and she ran across the room and locked herself in

0:21:03.040 --> 0:21:06.480
<v Speaker 1>the bathroom, while undeterred, he wiggled his fingers underneath the door.

0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:10.240
<v Speaker 1>She said his relentlessness was unlike anything I've ever experienced.

0:21:10.280 --> 0:21:13.320
<v Speaker 1>She finally was able to escape the room and told

0:21:13.400 --> 0:21:15.520
<v Speaker 1>her agent that his client is wild and never heard

0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:19.119
<v Speaker 1>from the agent again. She's trying to buy a calf muscle.

0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:25.200
<v Speaker 1>He was again because four couldn't Oh got you right?

0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:27.480
<v Speaker 1>So she has a lot of interesting stories. It sounds

0:21:27.520 --> 0:21:29.720
<v Speaker 1>like a great memoir. She's now fifty seven years old,

0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and she talked about when she was four years old,

0:21:31.880 --> 0:21:33.800
<v Speaker 1>her mother, younger sister, and cousin all died in a

0:21:33.840 --> 0:21:37.040
<v Speaker 1>car accident while her father was driving after drinking too

0:21:37.119 --> 0:21:40.360
<v Speaker 1>much at a family celebration. She and another sister survived,

0:21:40.960 --> 0:21:46.960
<v Speaker 1>and for a long time I was gonna ask for

0:21:47.000 --> 0:21:51.240

<v Speaker 1>the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. All right, let's

0:22:30.240 --> 0:22:34.400
<v Speaker 1>get to some front page news. But we're started well.

0:22:34.400 --> 0:22:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Two YouTubers have been sued by the University of Southern California,

0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:41.159
<v Speaker 1>and that is for busting into classrooms and stopping the

0:22:41.280 --> 0:22:45.280
<v Speaker 1>instructors so they could film viral videos. And now they're

0:22:45.320 --> 0:22:48.480
<v Speaker 1>saying that Ernest Kanevski and you Goo By, neither of

0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:51.000
<v Speaker 1>whom are enrolled at the school, performed a series of

0:22:51.080 --> 0:22:54.640
<v Speaker 1>pranks in different classrooms and the goal was making takeover

0:22:54.720 --> 0:22:58.040
<v Speaker 1>prank videos. There are. Most recent disruption went down a

0:22:58.040 --> 0:23:00.399
<v Speaker 1>few weeks ago. Ernest and Ugo pretend to be a

0:23:00.480 --> 0:23:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Russian mafia member and Hugo Boss. They interrupted a lecture

0:23:04.000 --> 0:23:08.439
<v Speaker 1>on the Holocaust. Hugo Boss manufactured Nazi uniforms during World

0:23:08.440 --> 0:23:11.280
<v Speaker 1>War Two. They said the students were panicked. Some of

0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:14.800
<v Speaker 1>them fled the room, leaving their belongings behind, and according

0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:17.919
<v Speaker 1>to the lawsuit, the YouTubers presented a credible threat of

0:23:18.000 --> 0:23:24.200
<v Speaker 1>imminent classroom violence. Here's what happened. Oh you could go home.

0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:34.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, I'm just trying to learn. No colt the

0:23:34.400 --> 0:23:38.199
<v Speaker 1>superior If you don't want to, why was everybody leaving

0:23:38.720 --> 0:23:44.080
<v Speaker 1>from just trying to learn? See securities? Should have shot him,

0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:46.160
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. People like that. I wanted

0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:47.800
<v Speaker 1>to they when they do these pranks, did they read

0:23:47.840 --> 0:23:49.280
<v Speaker 1>the room or they just be going for the funny,

0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Because common sense would say, if I'm going to come

0:23:50.760 --> 0:23:53.400
<v Speaker 1>into a room dressed as a Russian mafia member interruption,

0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:55.639
<v Speaker 1>interrupting lectures on the Holocaust, I would think it was

0:23:55.680 --> 0:23:58.480
<v Speaker 1>an imminent threat of classroom violence too. If I was

0:23:58.480 --> 0:24:00.440
<v Speaker 1>in that class office as the rest of them point

0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:03.920
<v Speaker 1>in a parking lot near the classroom, and no word

0:24:03.960 --> 0:24:06.639
<v Speaker 1>on what these criminal charges will be, if they're going

0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:09.040
<v Speaker 1>to press them at all. Should have shot him. You

0:24:09.119 --> 0:24:11.000
<v Speaker 1>gotta kill him, Give a little legs shot of something,

0:24:11.000 --> 0:24:12.600
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, because at some point in time,

0:24:12.640 --> 0:24:14.439
<v Speaker 1>you have to read the room when it comes to

0:24:14.440 --> 0:24:16.200
<v Speaker 1>these pranks. Why would you do something like that? Ever,

0:24:16.320 --> 0:24:19.919
<v Speaker 1>but especially at a time all right now. Former a

0:24:20.000 --> 0:24:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Virginia police officer who stormed the US capital was found

0:24:22.880 --> 0:24:27.200
<v Speaker 1>guilty on all charges yesterday. That man, Thomas Robertson, is

0:24:27.200 --> 0:24:29.680
<v Speaker 1>a former sergeant of the Rocky Mount Police in Virginia.

0:24:29.760 --> 0:24:33.639
<v Speaker 1>He faced charges including impeding law enforcement officers, obstructing an

0:24:33.640 --> 0:24:37.520
<v Speaker 1>official proceeding, entering and remaining in restricted grounds, and tampering

0:24:37.560 --> 0:24:40.720
<v Speaker 1>with evidence. The jury did hear from multiple witnesses during

0:24:40.760 --> 0:24:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the trial last week, and one juror told teen and

0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:46.399
<v Speaker 1>that there was debate on every charge while the jury

0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:50.480
<v Speaker 1>deliberated for around thirteen hours. And so during the trial

0:24:50.560 --> 0:24:53.359
<v Speaker 1>they testify that a man carrying a stick, who prosecutors

0:24:53.400 --> 0:24:56.240
<v Speaker 1>say was Robertson, hit him and another officer as they

0:24:56.240 --> 0:24:58.680
<v Speaker 1>tried to pass through the mob of rioters during the attack.

0:24:58.920 --> 0:25:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Prosecutors did place clips of the incident. They also played

0:25:02.040 --> 0:25:04.720
<v Speaker 1>some footage from police body cameras that were worn that day.

0:25:05.400 --> 0:25:09.800
<v Speaker 1>So he has been found guilty on all of those charges.

0:25:10.480 --> 0:25:13.240
<v Speaker 1>So closing arguments, his attorneys argued that he had no

0:25:13.320 --> 0:25:15.520
<v Speaker 1>plans to go down and say I'm going to stop

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Congress from doing this vote and continue to suggest that

0:25:18.320 --> 0:25:20.600
<v Speaker 1>the stick that Robertson had with him was simply a

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:25.160
<v Speaker 1>walking stick, but that did not stick. All right, Well

0:25:25.160 --> 0:25:27.719

<v Speaker 1>Ye's coffee shop doing an in store all right, Resumeminican,

0:26:26.359 --> 0:26:28.000
<v Speaker 1>good to see black. Now you doing it? King, I'm

0:26:28.080 --> 0:26:30.600
<v Speaker 1>doing good, brother, I'm doing good. Man. New book out,

0:26:31.320 --> 0:26:34.520
<v Speaker 1>The Quaking of America, an embodied guide to navigating our

0:26:34.680 --> 0:26:38.840
<v Speaker 1>nation's upheaval in racial reckoning Man the Beast. Okay, what's

0:26:38.880 --> 0:26:41.360
<v Speaker 1>the title about. Whenever you write a book, the publisher

0:26:41.440 --> 0:26:44.200
<v Speaker 1>always wants you to write the same book again, you know.

0:26:44.400 --> 0:26:48.080
<v Speaker 1>So I had originally started writing um a book called

0:26:48.119 --> 0:26:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Our Grandchildren's Souls, and it was basically about legacy and

0:26:51.840 --> 0:26:54.919
<v Speaker 1>how do we create a living, embodied, anti racist legacy

0:26:55.040 --> 0:26:58.520
<v Speaker 1>culture as opposed to just like being nice to each other.

0:26:58.760 --> 0:27:02.159
<v Speaker 1>And then January sixth, half as soon as that happened,

0:27:02.200 --> 0:27:04.200
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I can't keep writing this book. I gotta,

0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:09.199
<v Speaker 1>I gotta, because I think America sometimes we have seminal moments,

0:27:09.840 --> 0:27:11.639
<v Speaker 1>and then what we do a lot of times is

0:27:11.720 --> 0:27:14.320
<v Speaker 1>we forget those seminal moments. And I wanted to. I

0:27:14.400 --> 0:27:17.000
<v Speaker 1>wanted to enshrine it in the book. And so it

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:19.520
<v Speaker 1>really is about what it is that we saw on

0:27:19.680 --> 0:27:23.520
<v Speaker 1>January sixth, and how that actually is a testimony and

0:27:23.640 --> 0:27:27.200
<v Speaker 1>a testament to our history, to the intergenerational trauma, to

0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:30.639
<v Speaker 1>the persistent institutional trauma, and then our own personal pieces.

0:27:30.680 --> 0:27:34.280
<v Speaker 1>And so the quaking of America is really about how

0:27:34.400 --> 0:27:36.639
<v Speaker 1>that shows up and what we begin to do about it.

0:27:36.760 --> 0:27:39.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, really, right now, when you look at what

0:27:39.640 --> 0:27:42.440
<v Speaker 1>happened January six people are not even really talking about no,

0:27:42.760 --> 0:27:44.520
<v Speaker 1>not at all, and an attempted cool it is country

0:27:44.600 --> 0:27:46.520
<v Speaker 1>haempted cool. And then what's going to happen in the

0:27:46.640 --> 0:27:50.240
<v Speaker 1>future right after that, because you have some predictions as well, Right,

0:27:50.359 --> 0:27:54.000
<v Speaker 1>that's not normal in a democracy. No, no, well it

0:27:54.040 --> 0:27:56.919
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be normal. It should be normal in any country.

0:27:57.040 --> 0:27:59.680
<v Speaker 1>But in this country we get we get so enamored

0:27:59.760 --> 0:28:03.399
<v Speaker 1>with forgetting things right, and what ends up happening, I

0:28:03.520 --> 0:28:05.840
<v Speaker 1>think sometimes is that we don't learn the lessons that

0:28:05.920 --> 0:28:09.160
<v Speaker 1>we need to learn. When January sixth happened, I wasn't

0:28:09.200 --> 0:28:11.560
<v Speaker 1>even watching what was you know, what was going on?

0:28:11.640 --> 0:28:14.359
<v Speaker 1>And then all of a sudden, Maria, my wife, goes

0:28:14.560 --> 0:28:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Rasma and she screams right, and she's upstairs in the bedroom.

0:28:17.880 --> 0:28:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I come upstairs and you see like two thousand people

0:28:21.520 --> 0:28:23.760
<v Speaker 1>showing up to this thing. And so I just sat

0:28:23.800 --> 0:28:25.440
<v Speaker 1>down and we started watching it, and then all of

0:28:25.480 --> 0:28:28.080
<v Speaker 1>a sudden, you start seeing the symbols of our past.

0:28:28.160 --> 0:28:31.680
<v Speaker 1>You start seeing the new show up right, remember, Then

0:28:31.760 --> 0:28:34.760
<v Speaker 1>you start seeing the swastika showing right. Then you start

0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:38.720
<v Speaker 1>seeing the AR fifteen showroom. Then you start seeing people

0:28:38.800 --> 0:28:41.000
<v Speaker 1>kick the windows out. And I'm thinking, as I'm watching this,

0:28:41.160 --> 0:28:44.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, ain't nobody dead yet? They haven't shot anybody yet.

0:28:44.760 --> 0:28:46.960
<v Speaker 1>If that had been if that had been six thousand

0:28:47.000 --> 0:28:50.280
<v Speaker 1>black folks, or six thousand Indigenous people or six thousand

0:28:50.320 --> 0:28:53.479
<v Speaker 1>Mexican people, there would have been enough body bags, right,

0:28:53.960 --> 0:28:56.920
<v Speaker 1>and then and then when they finally started kicking in

0:28:57.000 --> 0:29:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the doors and nobody stopped, I was like, this is

0:29:01.040 --> 0:29:04.240
<v Speaker 1>a seminal moment. My whole thing in the book was like, look,

0:29:04.680 --> 0:29:08.600
<v Speaker 1>if we don't I if white people, and particularly white people,

0:29:08.680 --> 0:29:12.080
<v Speaker 1>if you saw that and that didn't spur you to

0:29:12.240 --> 0:29:15.080
<v Speaker 1>take a self defense course, that didn't spur you to

0:29:15.560 --> 0:29:18.600
<v Speaker 1>learn weapons training, that didn't spur you to take a

0:29:18.680 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 1>psychological first aid course. If that didn't spur you to

0:29:21.760 --> 0:29:23.880
<v Speaker 1>do that, then you're not seeing you're not taking what

0:29:24.000 --> 0:29:27.000
<v Speaker 1>you just saw seriously in my grandmother's hands in January

0:29:27.040 --> 0:29:29.560
<v Speaker 1>sixth reminded me that you spoke to how you know,

0:29:29.720 --> 0:29:33.240
<v Speaker 1>before they did that to enslaved Africans, before they did

0:29:33.280 --> 0:29:34.960
<v Speaker 1>that the indigenous people, they did it to themselves. They

0:29:35.040 --> 0:29:37.400
<v Speaker 1>did it to themselves. And that's the whole piece. The

0:29:37.480 --> 0:29:41.040
<v Speaker 1>whole piece for me is that white, white bodies got

0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:45.160
<v Speaker 1>conditioned around whiteness in the way that allowed them to

0:29:45.560 --> 0:29:48.840
<v Speaker 1>not see not only our humanity, but their own humanity.

0:29:49.240 --> 0:29:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Most white, most white bodies that are listening to this

0:29:52.080 --> 0:29:54.880
<v Speaker 1>call right now, are descended from white bodies that were

0:29:55.000 --> 0:30:01.600
<v Speaker 1>fleeing something. So what we call American immigrants. Like most

0:30:01.640 --> 0:30:03.120
<v Speaker 1>of the time when we think about it, we think

0:30:03.160 --> 0:30:06.440
<v Speaker 1>about those black and white pictures of white people coming

0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:08.680
<v Speaker 1>off the boats, right and all that different types of stuff.

0:30:08.760 --> 0:30:10.920
<v Speaker 1>But if you go a couple one hundred years before that,

0:30:11.360 --> 0:30:14.120
<v Speaker 1>most of them were fleeing famine, most of them were

0:30:14.160 --> 0:30:17.880
<v Speaker 1>fleeing religious persecution, most of them were fleeing the Middle Ages.

0:30:17.920 --> 0:30:21.040
<v Speaker 1>They were fleeing other white bodies who were brutalizing them.

0:30:21.400 --> 0:30:24.040
<v Speaker 1>And then they landed here. And then what ended up

0:30:24.080 --> 0:30:28.239
<v Speaker 1>happening is that most of those bodies got sold. Right

0:30:28.320 --> 0:30:31.560
<v Speaker 1>after the Bacon Rebellion got sold. The idea of whiteness

0:30:32.000 --> 0:30:34.840
<v Speaker 1>by elite white bodies. So elite white bodies sold poor

0:30:34.880 --> 0:30:37.000
<v Speaker 1>white bodies the idea of whiteness as a way to

0:30:37.080 --> 0:30:41.920
<v Speaker 1>get around the brutality. And but that fleeing never got

0:30:42.000 --> 0:30:45.080
<v Speaker 1>dealt with, and the conduit for dealing with it was

0:30:45.280 --> 0:30:49.920
<v Speaker 1>really the black and indigenous body. So all of that trauma,

0:30:50.040 --> 0:30:52.080
<v Speaker 1>all of that hurt, all of that pain, blew it

0:30:52.160 --> 0:30:55.440
<v Speaker 1>through their bodies, right, And so that's the whole setup.

0:30:55.640 --> 0:30:58.040
<v Speaker 1>This whole setup is around. And this is why I

0:30:58.120 --> 0:31:04.800
<v Speaker 1>talk about the difference between identity and body. Right, So black, brown,

0:31:04.920 --> 0:31:09.959
<v Speaker 1>and indigenous people all have identities, right. We might be transgender,

0:31:10.040 --> 0:31:11.880
<v Speaker 1>we might be gay, we might be straight, we might

0:31:11.920 --> 0:31:14.920
<v Speaker 1>be whatever. We have all of these different identities, and

0:31:15.760 --> 0:31:18.680
<v Speaker 1>we are also bodies of cultural or black bodies. And

0:31:18.840 --> 0:31:21.719
<v Speaker 1>what ends up happening is is that people canflate identity

0:31:22.120 --> 0:31:25.800
<v Speaker 1>with pigmentocracy. We live in the pigmentocracy. There was a

0:31:25.920 --> 0:31:28.080
<v Speaker 1>structure that was set up based on looking out in

0:31:28.080 --> 0:31:32.040
<v Speaker 1>the fields and seeing seeing that you are less human,

0:31:32.120 --> 0:31:35.560
<v Speaker 1>you are a species than the white bodies standing next

0:31:35.600 --> 0:31:38.880
<v Speaker 1>to you. And so those pieces have never gotten dealt

0:31:38.880 --> 0:31:41.680
<v Speaker 1>with in America, and in the quaking of America, I'm

0:31:41.800 --> 0:31:44.480
<v Speaker 1>trying to begin to do that, trying to begin to

0:31:44.600 --> 0:31:46.320
<v Speaker 1>work with that. You know, I noticed that too, when

0:31:46.320 --> 0:31:50.720
<v Speaker 1>we see people fleeing from Ukraine, and because they're white,

0:31:51.360 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 1>we have a different amount of sympathy. But then people

0:31:53.600 --> 0:31:58.440
<v Speaker 1>are fleeing from oppression and all kinds of violence in

0:31:58.520 --> 0:32:01.840
<v Speaker 1>their countries, but if they come from black and brown places,

0:32:02.440 --> 0:32:05.200
<v Speaker 1>it's like there's no sympathy for that, right, Sis, do

0:32:05.320 --> 0:32:08.200
<v Speaker 1>you remember this was this was not even a year ago.

0:32:08.720 --> 0:32:12.680
<v Speaker 1>We saw white man on horsebacks beating Haitians crossing the river.

0:32:13.360 --> 0:32:16.560
<v Speaker 1>If that is not a direct that picture, those pictures

0:32:16.600 --> 0:32:21.160
<v Speaker 1>were direct ties to our historical paths. Right. The pigmentocracy

0:32:21.320 --> 0:32:25.000
<v Speaker 1>is global. Right, when you watch people fleeing a war

0:32:25.200 --> 0:32:29.440
<v Speaker 1>zone or war zone in the Ukraine, you have soldiers

0:32:29.520 --> 0:32:32.640
<v Speaker 1>saying you can come on the boat, you get off

0:32:32.680 --> 0:32:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the bus, you do that. That's based on the pigmentocracy.

0:32:36.080 --> 0:32:38.560
<v Speaker 1>That's not based on whether or not those people are citizens.

0:32:39.120 --> 0:32:41.520
<v Speaker 1>That's not based on whether those people are workers within

0:32:41.640 --> 0:32:44.920
<v Speaker 1>that country. That's based on a pigmentocracy. You are less

0:32:45.000 --> 0:32:48.160
<v Speaker 1>human and you are more human, and so therefore you

0:32:48.320 --> 0:32:50.120
<v Speaker 1>can get on the plains in the bus. And even

0:32:50.160 --> 0:32:51.800
<v Speaker 1>though we're in the war zone and we're all trying

0:32:51.840 --> 0:32:55.240
<v Speaker 1>to escape, right, That's what I mean. That's so in Quaking,

0:32:55.280 --> 0:32:58.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm really trying to land that piece and have people

0:32:58.360 --> 0:33:03.400
<v Speaker 1>understand that this idea of of black skin being less

0:33:03.640 --> 0:33:07.320
<v Speaker 1>of a less human is the race question in this

0:33:07.480 --> 0:33:13.040
<v Speaker 1>country is a species question. First, Is Charlemagne a human

0:33:13.160 --> 0:33:16.520
<v Speaker 1>or not? And the answer for America is no, he

0:33:16.720 --> 0:33:19.600
<v Speaker 1>is not. It's sister a human or not. And the

0:33:19.760 --> 0:33:23.880
<v Speaker 1>answer structurally and philosophically has always been known. It was

0:33:23.920 --> 0:33:25.800
<v Speaker 1>in the Constitution, it was in the I mean it's

0:33:26.040 --> 0:33:29.160
<v Speaker 1>three fifths. People always talk about three fifths three fifths

0:33:29.480 --> 0:33:32.640
<v Speaker 1>being just a voting clause. No, the three fifth clause

0:33:32.800 --> 0:33:35.560
<v Speaker 1>came out of debate, which means that you had people

0:33:35.600 --> 0:33:39.720
<v Speaker 1>in the room debating how much those other bodies were

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:48.000
<v Speaker 1>actually worth. That idea transcends through time, and that's what

0:33:48.120 --> 0:33:50.240
<v Speaker 1>we're dealing with. When you see all of these you know,

0:33:50.400 --> 0:33:52.960
<v Speaker 1>when you when you see the brutality that our people

0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:56.320
<v Speaker 1>have experienced, you see it in in in in both

0:33:56.520 --> 0:33:59.360
<v Speaker 1>big demonstrative things. You see it in mundane things like

0:33:59.560 --> 0:34:05.480
<v Speaker 1>when you watch what happened between Brother Will and Chris Rock.

0:34:05.920 --> 0:34:09.320
<v Speaker 1>You watched history walk up the steps, his own personal history,

0:34:09.560 --> 0:34:13.879
<v Speaker 1>the historical, the intergenerational, and the institution. You could see

0:34:14.040 --> 0:34:17.440
<v Speaker 1>the pain walking up the steps. You could see the

0:34:17.560 --> 0:34:21.799
<v Speaker 1>heartbreak and Brother Chris's face from that, you could see

0:34:22.080 --> 0:34:26.320
<v Speaker 1>the heartbreak. And people talk about Chris, they talk about

0:34:27.120 --> 0:34:29.279
<v Speaker 1>brother Will and they talk about Jada, But what they

0:34:29.360 --> 0:34:32.000
<v Speaker 1>don't talk about is a person that was off to

0:34:32.120 --> 0:34:35.400
<v Speaker 1>the side, that actually represented the community. And that was

0:34:35.480 --> 0:34:40.560
<v Speaker 1>just the Lupeto nion. When you watch her face when

0:34:40.600 --> 0:34:44.439
<v Speaker 1>that happens, you see heartbreak, you see fear, you see

0:34:44.520 --> 0:34:47.080
<v Speaker 1>all of those differently. Just slow the tape down. You

0:34:47.360 --> 0:34:52.839
<v Speaker 1>see a rupture, and that rupture, that rupture has historical underpinnings.

0:34:53.640 --> 0:34:55.960
<v Speaker 1>All right, we have more with Resumeminican when we come back,

0:34:56.000 --> 0:35:02.600
<v Speaker 1>don't move. It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, Yeah, angela

0:35:02.719 --> 0:35:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Ye Charlomagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was

0:35:05.120 --> 0:35:07.879
<v Speaker 1>still kicking it with author Resume Mendicant and don't forget

0:35:07.880 --> 0:35:10.319
<v Speaker 1>he's going to be at angela Ye's coffee shop today

0:35:10.480 --> 0:35:14.160
<v Speaker 1>signing books. Ye. Another thing that's current that's been happening

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:18.239
<v Speaker 1>with Supreme Court Justice Katanzi Brown Jackson, and we saw

0:35:18.880 --> 0:35:21.239
<v Speaker 1>her being questioned and the things that they were saying

0:35:21.280 --> 0:35:23.120
<v Speaker 1>about her and to her, and the messaging that the

0:35:23.200 --> 0:35:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Republicans were putting out who were voting against her. And

0:35:26.840 --> 0:35:28.759
<v Speaker 1>so that's something too, because I know a lot of

0:35:28.840 --> 0:35:32.399
<v Speaker 1>what you discussed is also political in context too when

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:35.640
<v Speaker 1>we talk about Republican and their messaging and how Democrats

0:35:35.719 --> 0:35:39.080
<v Speaker 1>operate as far as trying to be more concerned about policy, Yeah,

0:35:39.280 --> 0:35:43.240
<v Speaker 1>yeah than anything else. First off, she wasn't being questioned.

0:35:43.640 --> 0:35:46.239
<v Speaker 1>She was being what I call, and there's been a

0:35:46.320 --> 0:35:50.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of writing on this, is what's called spirit murder. Right,

0:35:51.440 --> 0:35:54.000
<v Speaker 1>she would the questioning and the things that they were

0:35:54.040 --> 0:35:58.360
<v Speaker 1>doing were about attacking and undermining her humanity. First notice

0:35:58.400 --> 0:36:01.160
<v Speaker 1>the questioning. The questioning was not what have you done?

0:36:01.320 --> 0:36:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Was the laws? What are the things that? Right? The

0:36:03.200 --> 0:36:06.960
<v Speaker 1>question is was around are you human enough? Yeah? Right?

0:36:07.320 --> 0:36:13.040
<v Speaker 1>And that's always the subtexts, yeah right, that's right. Question.

0:36:13.080 --> 0:36:17.400
<v Speaker 1>No morals question her actual humanity? Do you just you

0:36:17.480 --> 0:36:20.880
<v Speaker 1>don't really deserve to be here? That spirit murder is

0:36:20.960 --> 0:36:26.480
<v Speaker 1>a facet of America. Right, in order to enslave a people, right,

0:36:26.640 --> 0:36:30.120
<v Speaker 1>black people were never slaves. We were enslaved, which means

0:36:30.320 --> 0:36:33.360
<v Speaker 1>something happened. In order to do that, you have to

0:36:33.520 --> 0:36:36.719
<v Speaker 1>spirit murder people. You have to undermine, you have to

0:36:36.920 --> 0:36:40.279
<v Speaker 1>cut them, you have to make them believe that that

0:36:40.640 --> 0:36:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the brother or the sister next to them is their

0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:45.880
<v Speaker 1>mortal enemy. And what we have to begin to do

0:36:46.000 --> 0:36:48.239
<v Speaker 1>is we have to begin to change our language. We

0:36:48.400 --> 0:36:50.719
<v Speaker 1>have to begin to change our language and make sure

0:36:50.800 --> 0:36:53.200
<v Speaker 1>that it's an embodied language. Like when you were watching

0:36:53.280 --> 0:36:55.719
<v Speaker 1>what they were doing to syst I would imagine just

0:36:55.840 --> 0:36:58.160
<v Speaker 1>knowing you says that you were watching it going probably

0:36:58.280 --> 0:37:01.560
<v Speaker 1>using not so good words, right, but but something about

0:37:01.920 --> 0:37:04.160
<v Speaker 1>what they were doing, even though it looked like questioning,

0:37:04.280 --> 0:37:08.640
<v Speaker 1>something about it seemed brutal. Yeah, right, that's the spirit murder.

0:37:08.880 --> 0:37:11.840
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate what Cory Booker said, but in that moment,

0:37:12.400 --> 0:37:14.600
<v Speaker 1>you gotta check the white boys come on before you

0:37:14.640 --> 0:37:16.960
<v Speaker 1>pour in there. Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying. Yeah,

0:37:17.280 --> 0:37:18.920
<v Speaker 1>if it didn't feel right, it felt like you was

0:37:19.000 --> 0:37:21.239
<v Speaker 1>like like you felt like you watched sis to get

0:37:21.280 --> 0:37:24.200
<v Speaker 1>slapped in the face and you're, you know, you're, you're,

0:37:24.320 --> 0:37:25.840
<v Speaker 1>you're pouring into her saying it was so good. You

0:37:25.880 --> 0:37:27.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't do anything, you didn't fight back. But the person

0:37:28.000 --> 0:37:31.239
<v Speaker 1>that slapped him is right there. That's you know, that's

0:37:31.320 --> 0:37:33.600
<v Speaker 1>the piece that I think in terms of quaking. Like

0:37:33.640 --> 0:37:37.719
<v Speaker 1>a friend of mine, Uh, that red quaking, she said,

0:37:37.840 --> 0:37:41.239
<v Speaker 1>res my grandmother's hands was like a warm blanket. Uh.

0:37:41.520 --> 0:37:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Quaking is like a dark alley, right, because I'm moving

0:37:46.320 --> 0:37:49.600
<v Speaker 1>into some places that people don't really want to want

0:37:49.640 --> 0:37:51.759
<v Speaker 1>to go, and you just hit on it. Right. I

0:37:51.960 --> 0:37:54.120
<v Speaker 1>love the fact that he poured into her. I love

0:37:54.200 --> 0:37:57.920
<v Speaker 1>the fact that somebody said, I see you, sis, I

0:37:58.080 --> 0:38:00.840
<v Speaker 1>see you, I love you, um, and I know what

0:38:00.960 --> 0:38:05.359
<v Speaker 1>they're doing. Right. That's beautiful, right, And at the same time,

0:38:05.400 --> 0:38:07.759
<v Speaker 1>the piece that you're saying also needs to needs to

0:38:07.800 --> 0:38:10.959
<v Speaker 1>come to the four two. Somebody, somebody should have said,

0:38:11.080 --> 0:38:12.840
<v Speaker 1>and there was nobody that should have said that. They

0:38:12.880 --> 0:38:15.160
<v Speaker 1>could have said it, right, but him at that moment

0:38:15.520 --> 0:38:18.080
<v Speaker 1>should have said, Hey, all the stuff that they're doing

0:38:18.520 --> 0:38:22.400
<v Speaker 1>is filed. They filed. You ain't crazy, they are. They

0:38:22.440 --> 0:38:25.399
<v Speaker 1>are out of pocket, and I'm gonna say something to him, right,

0:38:26.280 --> 0:38:28.600
<v Speaker 1>But see, when we go to do that, now, we're

0:38:28.680 --> 0:38:32.399
<v Speaker 1>responding from people want to want to position us as

0:38:32.440 --> 0:38:35.400
<v Speaker 1>we're responding from what's small in us, and we're not.

0:38:35.600 --> 0:38:39.320
<v Speaker 1>When we're protecting each other, and protecting doesn't all doesn't

0:38:39.600 --> 0:38:43.680
<v Speaker 1>necessarily always mean physical protection, but Sometimes you gotta talk.

0:38:43.840 --> 0:38:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes you gotta say, look back up, we're talking to

0:38:47.680 --> 0:38:50.320
<v Speaker 1>her like that. That's not that's not how we're supposed

0:38:50.360 --> 0:38:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to get down. And you're not gonna do it. You

0:38:52.400 --> 0:38:53.840
<v Speaker 1>may do it in front of other people, but you

0:38:53.920 --> 0:38:56.440
<v Speaker 1>can't do it in front of me. Right, So you're

0:38:56.440 --> 0:38:59.399
<v Speaker 1>absolutely right. And but but that's what quaking is about.

0:38:59.400 --> 0:39:02.960
<v Speaker 1>It is about us beginning to really understand that they

0:39:03.080 --> 0:39:07.800
<v Speaker 1>got this structure in the philosophy is going to is

0:39:07.880 --> 0:39:10.560
<v Speaker 1>going to eviscerate you. So you might as well say

0:39:10.640 --> 0:39:12.600
<v Speaker 1>something while you're trying to do it. You know, in

0:39:12.680 --> 0:39:15.080
<v Speaker 1>the first chapter of the book, you quote, uh, Stewart

0:39:15.120 --> 0:39:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Stevens who says, for the first time since eighteen sixty

0:39:18.000 --> 0:39:21.720
<v Speaker 1>a major American political party, the Republicans, doesn't believe America

0:39:21.760 --> 0:39:25.360
<v Speaker 1>as a democracy. How significant is that, Steve? We've always

0:39:25.400 --> 0:39:27.920
<v Speaker 1>known that, right, That's right, We've always so So I

0:39:28.000 --> 0:39:30.960
<v Speaker 1>had I had an indigenous brother tell me one time, um,

0:39:31.440 --> 0:39:33.880
<v Speaker 1>when back this is years ago, when I was arguing

0:39:33.920 --> 0:39:37.800
<v Speaker 1>about you know, uh, you know, political parties and stuff

0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:40.600
<v Speaker 1>like that, you know, the Republicans and the Democrats, and

0:39:40.680 --> 0:39:42.319
<v Speaker 1>one of the things he said, and we just both

0:39:42.400 --> 0:39:45.200
<v Speaker 1>start laughing. When he said he said right wing, left

0:39:45.200 --> 0:39:49.360
<v Speaker 1>wing all part of the same racist birds. And and

0:39:49.719 --> 0:39:52.440
<v Speaker 1>that's what that means, that that I don't you know

0:39:52.600 --> 0:39:56.280
<v Speaker 1>in in in in the book, I really go at everybody.

0:39:56.760 --> 0:39:58.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm going at because because I think we have to

0:39:58.960 --> 0:40:01.400
<v Speaker 1>have a more mature understanding about what we're dealing with.

0:40:02.000 --> 0:40:05.120
<v Speaker 1>This idea that we're going to, uh, we're going to

0:40:05.320 --> 0:40:08.520
<v Speaker 1>resolve this by putting more Democrats in office, We're going

0:40:08.560 --> 0:40:11.719
<v Speaker 1>to resolve this by putting more Republicans in office, or

0:40:12.120 --> 0:40:15.480
<v Speaker 1>or whatever really misses the point. The point is is

0:40:15.560 --> 0:40:20.240
<v Speaker 1>that there is a racist ground founding of this country.

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:23.520
<v Speaker 1>And if you don't understand that, and if you don't

0:40:23.560 --> 0:40:28.360
<v Speaker 1>have your own self interest clear, then you'll be fooled.

0:40:28.600 --> 0:40:32.239
<v Speaker 1>You'll think that Joe Biden a dude who ushered in

0:40:32.840 --> 0:40:36.360
<v Speaker 1>some of the most horrible laws as it relates to

0:40:36.440 --> 0:40:40.560
<v Speaker 1>black people. You'll think that he's your savor right as

0:40:40.600 --> 0:40:43.719
<v Speaker 1>opposed to know, maybe what I need to do is

0:40:44.239 --> 0:40:46.440
<v Speaker 1>understand what my self interest is and make sure that

0:40:46.600 --> 0:40:49.920
<v Speaker 1>he applied that he does what I need him to

0:40:49.960 --> 0:40:53.000
<v Speaker 1>do for our people. And so that's what that statement

0:40:53.080 --> 0:40:55.279
<v Speaker 1>is about. It is about us being more and more

0:40:55.400 --> 0:41:00.600
<v Speaker 1>clear about what we're seeing is actually happening. Yes, it's

0:41:00.680 --> 0:41:03.680
<v Speaker 1>actually I mean because it's not normal. But for some

0:41:03.840 --> 0:41:06.000
<v Speaker 1>reason it's all coming off. It's like this is supposed

0:41:06.040 --> 0:41:09.440
<v Speaker 1>to happen, like no, no, this isn't even politics anymore.

0:41:09.640 --> 0:41:14.440
<v Speaker 1>It's not. And when you have listen, more white women

0:41:15.239 --> 0:41:18.680
<v Speaker 1>voted for Trump the second time than the first time.

0:41:19.600 --> 0:41:24.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, just this, after all of that, after all

0:41:24.800 --> 0:41:29.160
<v Speaker 1>of that, they voted for him in more numbers. That

0:41:29.320 --> 0:41:32.960
<v Speaker 1>lets you know that there's something about that thing that

0:41:33.120 --> 0:41:37.280
<v Speaker 1>he's selling that is so intrinsic to America that even

0:41:37.560 --> 0:41:40.759
<v Speaker 1>when he shows you I don't give a hoot about you,

0:41:41.160 --> 0:41:43.600
<v Speaker 1>you still vote for him in droves. That's the fleeing

0:41:43.719 --> 0:41:47.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff that I believe never got them right among white folks.

0:41:47.600 --> 0:41:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Um what I call plantation ethics, right, the idea that

0:41:52.280 --> 0:41:55.640
<v Speaker 1>you have a strong man, right in particularly a strong

0:41:55.719 --> 0:41:59.200
<v Speaker 1>white man, that that that that absolves you of all

0:41:59.280 --> 0:42:02.719
<v Speaker 1>of your sins, right and and we'll protect you at

0:42:02.760 --> 0:42:06.000
<v Speaker 1>all costs. That's that runs through America, all right. We

0:42:06.040 --> 0:42:08.399

0:42:21.719 --> 0:42:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Ye's coffee shop today signing books. Charlomagne, I love talking

0:42:25.480 --> 0:42:27.120
<v Speaker 1>to you for a number of different reasons. But you know,

0:42:27.200 --> 0:42:29.839
<v Speaker 1>even just the way you see things, because you know, hell,

0:42:29.920 --> 0:42:32.359
<v Speaker 1>people see things differently, right, Like when you talk about

0:42:32.360 --> 0:42:35.480
<v Speaker 1>the Christen Will situation, all I saw was pain period, right,

0:42:35.840 --> 0:42:38.000
<v Speaker 1>But you also had some interests and things. When you

0:42:38.040 --> 0:42:40.840
<v Speaker 1>saw Cordack Black, you said you saw something that that

0:42:41.000 --> 0:42:45.239
<v Speaker 1>young brother worries me. The pain and the brutality and

0:42:45.320 --> 0:42:48.200
<v Speaker 1>the things that he's seen and the things that he's experienced.

0:42:48.719 --> 0:42:51.839
<v Speaker 1>We have a tendency when people are stars in their

0:42:52.200 --> 0:42:54.439
<v Speaker 1>in their movie stars and all of that different type

0:42:54.440 --> 0:42:59.839
<v Speaker 1>of stuff, we have a tendency to almost almost shun

0:43:00.120 --> 0:43:03.080
<v Speaker 1>their pain. And when I'm listening to the brother and

0:43:03.200 --> 0:43:06.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm listening watching his cadence and watching his you know,

0:43:06.600 --> 0:43:09.719
<v Speaker 1>his his the way that he moves. Um, there's a

0:43:09.880 --> 0:43:13.520
<v Speaker 1>tremendous amount of brutality that that brother has experience, that

0:43:13.680 --> 0:43:18.800
<v Speaker 1>he's seen and UM and I believe we have to

0:43:18.960 --> 0:43:23.360
<v Speaker 1>start to begin to see each other's humanity. And so

0:43:23.560 --> 0:43:26.520
<v Speaker 1>when I see him, and I've saw seen you y'all

0:43:26.560 --> 0:43:30.799
<v Speaker 1>interview him. Every time I see him, my heartbreaks. When

0:43:30.880 --> 0:43:34.359
<v Speaker 1>I saw it, when I saw will you know, slap Chris,

0:43:34.520 --> 0:43:38.160
<v Speaker 1>my heart broke because there's a rupture that has happened

0:43:38.200 --> 0:43:41.640
<v Speaker 1>that that until it's so big and demonstrative, that's when

0:43:41.680 --> 0:43:44.160
<v Speaker 1>we pay attention to it, right. But when it's when

0:43:44.239 --> 0:43:47.279
<v Speaker 1>it's when it when they're entertaining us, we don't see

0:43:47.320 --> 0:43:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the rupture, right. And and when I called you about him,

0:43:51.520 --> 0:43:54.319
<v Speaker 1>when I said, you know, if reach out to that brother,

0:43:54.400 --> 0:43:57.239
<v Speaker 1>let him know, right, Um, That's what I was trying

0:43:57.280 --> 0:44:00.759
<v Speaker 1>to get at was that I saw the I'm there,

0:44:00.880 --> 0:44:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm hurting, I'm in pain too, so I know

0:44:04.080 --> 0:44:06.320
<v Speaker 1>what it's like when I see it, um. And so

0:44:06.880 --> 0:44:11.760
<v Speaker 1>the idea of rupture, that seeing rupture and developing ways

0:44:11.840 --> 0:44:14.360
<v Speaker 1>to repair that rupture is what we have to be

0:44:14.440 --> 0:44:16.920
<v Speaker 1>about with each other. Yeah, I mean it's not normal, right,

0:44:17.120 --> 0:44:18.719
<v Speaker 1>Like even when you saw what we saw what we

0:44:18.800 --> 0:44:21.160
<v Speaker 1>saw the oscars. Yeah, you get your jokes off and

0:44:21.200 --> 0:44:23.960
<v Speaker 1>it's entertaining, but that's not normal. That's not that's a

0:44:24.040 --> 0:44:26.399
<v Speaker 1>man who for thirty years, we have never seen any

0:44:26.440 --> 0:44:28.920
<v Speaker 1>of that. You're absolutely right. So there was two pieces

0:44:29.000 --> 0:44:31.560
<v Speaker 1>that happened for me that that happened that during that thing.

0:44:31.680 --> 0:44:34.320
<v Speaker 1>The first one was when he started walking up. I

0:44:34.480 --> 0:44:37.880
<v Speaker 1>was like, you could, you could experience it, right, And

0:44:38.040 --> 0:44:40.000
<v Speaker 1>then when he did what he did, and you could.

0:44:40.120 --> 0:44:42.560
<v Speaker 1>You saw Chris's face and you could see the heartbreak

0:44:42.600 --> 0:44:44.719
<v Speaker 1>in his face, like what you know, like that because

0:44:45.719 --> 0:44:50.759
<v Speaker 1>that's that's that's exactly right. And but but the other

0:44:50.840 --> 0:44:52.719
<v Speaker 1>piece that I saw, brother, was after that. This is

0:44:52.760 --> 0:44:54.640
<v Speaker 1>what I called about the rupture. There was a rupture

0:44:54.719 --> 0:44:58.000
<v Speaker 1>and then the repair was Then you had two older

0:44:58.120 --> 0:45:02.040
<v Speaker 1>black men that wrapped up arms around Will, right, you

0:45:02.160 --> 0:45:06.040
<v Speaker 1>had Tyler Perry and den Zail wrapped their arms around them.

0:45:06.080 --> 0:45:10.160
<v Speaker 1>That's the repair pieces you called Chris checked on it.

0:45:10.600 --> 0:45:14.200
<v Speaker 1>That's the repair pieces, right. Those are the repair pieces

0:45:14.480 --> 0:45:16.360
<v Speaker 1>that you keep coming back to. That we have to

0:45:16.440 --> 0:45:18.799
<v Speaker 1>keep coming back to because otherwise we'll be trapped into

0:45:18.920 --> 0:45:22.359
<v Speaker 1>thinking that the only thing that's out there is rough. Sure, Na,

0:45:23.600 --> 0:45:26.440
<v Speaker 1>that's not the only thing. The standard is repair, The

0:45:26.600 --> 0:45:29.719
<v Speaker 1>standard is loved, The standard is joy right, and when

0:45:30.080 --> 0:45:33.000
<v Speaker 1>when when Will did that? And those two older brothers

0:45:33.080 --> 0:45:35.080
<v Speaker 1>wrapped their arms around him and said, come here, man,

0:45:35.880 --> 0:45:39.360
<v Speaker 1>I love you. This was out of pocket. And I

0:45:39.520 --> 0:45:42.080
<v Speaker 1>love you. When you reached out to Chris ay Man,

0:45:42.320 --> 0:45:45.319
<v Speaker 1>I love you. That was out of pocket. Whatever you need,

0:45:45.400 --> 0:45:49.719
<v Speaker 1>I got you, right, that's that's the standard. And you right,

0:45:49.840 --> 0:45:53.719
<v Speaker 1>everybody's talking jokes. Everybody got their opinion. Right. If Will

0:45:53.760 --> 0:45:56.120
<v Speaker 1>would have did this to me, I did, that's besides

0:45:56.160 --> 0:45:59.560
<v Speaker 1>the point, right. The point is is that our people

0:45:59.640 --> 0:46:02.680
<v Speaker 1>are hurting. The point is and it's going and it's

0:46:02.840 --> 0:46:05.920
<v Speaker 1>gone unaddressed, continues to go unaddressed, and we have to

0:46:05.960 --> 0:46:08.279
<v Speaker 1>start addressing it. I think that is a way to

0:46:08.320 --> 0:46:12.320
<v Speaker 1>protect black women. What happened, and I saw that conversation

0:46:12.440 --> 0:46:15.480
<v Speaker 1>happening amongst a lot of people, right black You know

0:46:15.560 --> 0:46:18.000
<v Speaker 1>how I protect Black women in my life. I don't

0:46:18.239 --> 0:46:20.719
<v Speaker 1>hurt them physically. You know, I tect black way in

0:46:20.760 --> 0:46:23.040
<v Speaker 1>my life. My wife. I don't cheat on my wife.

0:46:23.280 --> 0:46:25.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, I protect black women in my life. I

0:46:25.760 --> 0:46:29.239
<v Speaker 1>love my daughters right right, and yourself, and I do

0:46:29.440 --> 0:46:31.520
<v Speaker 1>my own and and and I'm a therapist that I've

0:46:31.560 --> 0:46:33.520
<v Speaker 1>been a therapist for a lot of years. I have

0:46:33.640 --> 0:46:38.040
<v Speaker 1>a therapist, right because because when you when you're in

0:46:38.120 --> 0:46:40.080
<v Speaker 1>the middle of a thing. You can't see on the

0:46:40.160 --> 0:46:42.560
<v Speaker 1>outside of a thing, right, you need somebody on the

0:46:42.640 --> 0:46:44.960
<v Speaker 1>outside saying, Hey, this is what I'm tracking. This is

0:46:45.000 --> 0:46:48.080
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. So how I love black women is

0:46:48.120 --> 0:46:51.600
<v Speaker 1>to work on myself and get myself better and get

0:46:51.680 --> 0:46:55.080
<v Speaker 1>myself healed. Right, so the black women that come to

0:46:55.400 --> 0:47:00.600
<v Speaker 1>come into my life are not brutalized by those unhealed things. Yeah,

0:47:00.640 --> 0:47:03.440
<v Speaker 1>I think emotionally and mentally we could cause more abuse.

0:47:04.160 --> 0:47:06.440
<v Speaker 1>It's about being a hurt individual. Exactly right, you know,

0:47:06.680 --> 0:47:10.160
<v Speaker 1>exactly right. Our people have so much love in us.

0:47:10.480 --> 0:47:12.920
<v Speaker 1>We have so much love in us, but it's been

0:47:13.160 --> 0:47:18.080
<v Speaker 1>thwarted and brutalized. And even with that, we're still reaching

0:47:18.120 --> 0:47:21.440
<v Speaker 1>out to each other. We're still saying, brother, I love you, Sister,

0:47:21.520 --> 0:47:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I love you. This matters to me, right, But there's

0:47:24.640 --> 0:47:28.239
<v Speaker 1>a lot of on her. And here's the other piece.

0:47:28.680 --> 0:47:35.200
<v Speaker 1>The brutality that our people experienced is not post we

0:47:35.320 --> 0:47:38.640
<v Speaker 1>talk about post traumatic stress disorder. Our people don't experience

0:47:38.680 --> 0:47:42.920
<v Speaker 1>post traumatic stress disorder. Our people experience pervasive and persistent

0:47:43.120 --> 0:47:46.400
<v Speaker 1>traumatic stress disorder. It's still happening. Post would imply that

0:47:46.480 --> 0:47:51.359
<v Speaker 1>it's done in past. We're still dealing with a pervasive brutality,

0:47:51.520 --> 0:47:56.080
<v Speaker 1>a pervasive terrorism that is aimed at our bodies, and

0:47:56.600 --> 0:47:58.960
<v Speaker 1>we haven't been able to articulate it, we haven't been

0:47:59.000 --> 0:48:02.840
<v Speaker 1>able to develop a cultural understanding of it. And so

0:48:03.040 --> 0:48:06.520
<v Speaker 1>part of what quaking is is to say you're not crazy,

0:48:07.160 --> 0:48:10.719
<v Speaker 1>you're not defective. What you think is actually happening, is

0:48:10.760 --> 0:48:14.719
<v Speaker 1>actually happening. Even when you talk about the standard being Joy, Yeah,

0:48:15.160 --> 0:48:17.040
<v Speaker 1>that shouldn't be a hard concept for me to grasp

0:48:17.080 --> 0:48:19.600
<v Speaker 1>what it is. Yeah, Like if that black people standard,

0:48:19.640 --> 0:48:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't. Yeah, Well, let me say this, Black bodies,

0:48:23.200 --> 0:48:30.680
<v Speaker 1>black people don't come to the planet disconnected from creation itself. Okay,

0:48:31.160 --> 0:48:36.080
<v Speaker 1>we are representations of creation itself. The first human being

0:48:36.400 --> 0:48:40.840
<v Speaker 1>on the planet was a black woman. We are descended

0:48:40.960 --> 0:48:45.120
<v Speaker 1>from that. Okay. Joy is part of us because we

0:48:45.239 --> 0:48:48.640
<v Speaker 1>are part of creation. What happens is is that the

0:48:48.800 --> 0:48:52.160
<v Speaker 1>brutalness and the feralness of this white body supremacy system

0:48:52.239 --> 0:48:57.600
<v Speaker 1>and structure thwarts it. It doesn't eliminate it, it thwarts it.

0:48:57.760 --> 0:49:00.320
<v Speaker 1>It's like it's like putting a cap on on on

0:49:01.440 --> 0:49:04.680
<v Speaker 1>some mountain dew and shaking it up. Right, it'll come

0:49:04.719 --> 0:49:07.919
<v Speaker 1>out the sides and everything right. But but it gets

0:49:08.040 --> 0:49:11.440
<v Speaker 1>thwarted by the cap That's what trauma is. That's what

0:49:11.640 --> 0:49:14.360
<v Speaker 1>racial trauma is. It thwarts it. But the but the

0:49:14.640 --> 0:49:16.680
<v Speaker 1>essence is joy. Let me let me give you an example.

0:49:17.600 --> 0:49:22.399
<v Speaker 1>When that thing happened with Chris and and and Will,

0:49:23.440 --> 0:49:28.680
<v Speaker 1>you reached out to Chris because you loved him. That's

0:49:28.760 --> 0:49:34.880
<v Speaker 1>the standard. That's the that's the standard. Right. If it

0:49:35.000 --> 0:49:37.040
<v Speaker 1>had not have been the standard, you'd have been like,

0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:42.480
<v Speaker 1>uh them, right, No, it was the standard. Right, you

0:49:42.640 --> 0:49:45.400
<v Speaker 1>went back to the standard. I love Besides all of

0:49:45.440 --> 0:49:49.719
<v Speaker 1>this stuff, I love you, I love you, right, I

0:49:49.800 --> 0:49:52.400
<v Speaker 1>don't care. I don't care who else reaches out. I

0:49:52.640 --> 0:49:56.000
<v Speaker 1>love you. And so you made that move, right, that's

0:49:56.080 --> 0:49:59.239
<v Speaker 1>the standard. We get so caught up day to day

0:49:59.400 --> 0:50:01.800
<v Speaker 1>trying to deal with this brutality that we think the

0:50:01.960 --> 0:50:04.279
<v Speaker 1>standard is the fighting, that we think the standard is

0:50:04.320 --> 0:50:08.239
<v Speaker 1>the rupture. Yeah, that's not the standard. His name is

<v Speaker 1>people who have reached out to her, and she posted

0:51:07.400 --> 0:51:08.800
<v Speaker 1>with the news of the real ending. I had to

0:51:08.880 --> 0:51:11.520
<v Speaker 1>console a lot of crew and fans this weekend. I've

0:51:11.600 --> 0:51:13.719
<v Speaker 1>been in this business a long time and understand it,

0:51:13.800 --> 0:51:16.360
<v Speaker 1>but it still warms my heart that so many have

0:51:16.480 --> 0:51:18.600
<v Speaker 1>reached out to me. We still have new episodes till

0:51:18.680 --> 0:51:22.840
<v Speaker 1>June third the reel, so we'll miss seeing Nasha that

0:51:22.960 --> 0:51:26.279
<v Speaker 1>was on for quite some time. Yeah, eight seasons, so

0:51:26.520 --> 0:51:29.680
<v Speaker 1>that's a success still, no matter what. All Right now,

0:51:29.800 --> 0:51:32.839
<v Speaker 1>Kim Kardashian has fears that there could be another sex

0:51:32.920 --> 0:51:36.200
<v Speaker 1>tape out there, and so she has hired attorneys to

0:51:36.280 --> 0:51:39.399
<v Speaker 1>prevent any type of clips or anything from ever seeing

0:51:39.440 --> 0:51:41.560
<v Speaker 1>the light of day, even though she said she's ninety

0:51:41.640 --> 0:51:44.600
<v Speaker 1>nine percent sure that there is nothing. She just wants

0:51:44.600 --> 0:51:47.480
<v Speaker 1>to make sure that, no matter what, any videos will

0:51:47.560 --> 0:51:51.440
<v Speaker 1>never ever come out. I saw that one of her

0:51:51.680 --> 0:51:55.239
<v Speaker 1>kids actually saw about the sex tape on roadblocks while

0:51:55.280 --> 0:51:58.600
<v Speaker 1>playing roadblocks, and so I'm sure that's not easy, but

0:51:58.719 --> 0:52:00.719
<v Speaker 1>she has said previously she would addressed that with her

0:52:00.800 --> 0:52:04.320
<v Speaker 1>children and be very open and honest about what happened.

0:52:04.960 --> 0:52:07.640
<v Speaker 1>All right. Nia Long has talked about the pressure of

0:52:07.760 --> 0:52:10.440
<v Speaker 1>being called ageless. She said, I am a proud fifty

0:52:10.520 --> 0:52:15.040
<v Speaker 1>one years old. She told people that well intended praise

0:52:15.120 --> 0:52:19.480
<v Speaker 1>like being called ageless, can sometimes implicitly feed into unrealistic

0:52:19.520 --> 0:52:22.320
<v Speaker 1>beauty standards. She said, I so appreciate the compliment, but

0:52:22.440 --> 0:52:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I have to tell you there's so much pressure in

0:52:24.080 --> 0:52:26.680
<v Speaker 1>this industry to stay beautiful and stay young, and I'm

0:52:26.680 --> 0:52:29.120
<v Speaker 1>really not interested in leaning into the idea of perfection.

0:52:29.200 --> 0:52:31.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm a proud fifty one, and eventually I'm going to

0:52:31.600 --> 0:52:33.440
<v Speaker 1>age in a way where it's obvious, and I want

0:52:33.480 --> 0:52:36.080
<v Speaker 1>it to happen beautifully and gracefully. I don't really want

0:52:36.120 --> 0:52:37.920
<v Speaker 1>the pressure of feeling like I have to be beautiful

0:52:37.960 --> 0:52:40.479
<v Speaker 1>and perfect, because I think beauty comes at any age.

0:52:40.800 --> 0:52:42.919
<v Speaker 1>That's interesting, And she's right. I don't think it's about

0:52:42.920 --> 0:52:44.360
<v Speaker 1>being young, though. I think that you know, when you

0:52:44.440 --> 0:52:47.080
<v Speaker 1>see when we were younger, older people used to look

0:52:47.360 --> 0:52:49.879
<v Speaker 1>actually older. So when you see somebody that's fifty something

0:52:49.960 --> 0:52:53.480
<v Speaker 1>years old and they still look flawless, You're like, damn,

0:52:54.040 --> 0:52:57.200
<v Speaker 1>that's how humans are supposed to age, right, I would think, right,

0:52:57.480 --> 0:53:00.120
<v Speaker 1>supposed to get better with time. I think so all right. Now,

0:53:00.239 --> 0:53:03.520
<v Speaker 1>Cam Newton was one million dollars worth of game, and

0:53:04.600 --> 0:53:07.040
<v Speaker 1>he was talking about his childhood and his views of

0:53:07.120 --> 0:53:09.960
<v Speaker 1>what a woman's role should be. Here is what was said.

0:53:10.320 --> 0:53:12.759
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in a three parent household, my mom,

0:53:13.160 --> 0:53:16.080
<v Speaker 1>my father, and my grandmother. A woman for me is

0:53:16.560 --> 0:53:20.480
<v Speaker 1>handling your own but knowing how to cater to a

0:53:20.640 --> 0:53:23.719
<v Speaker 1>man's needs. And I think a lot of times when

0:53:23.760 --> 0:53:26.120
<v Speaker 1>you get that aesthetic of like I'm a boss bitch,

0:53:26.320 --> 0:53:28.600
<v Speaker 1>like I'm a dead so I'm a dad, no baby, Like,

0:53:29.000 --> 0:53:31.600
<v Speaker 1>but you can't cook, okay, you don't know when to

0:53:31.680 --> 0:53:34.160
<v Speaker 1>be quiet. You don't know how to allow a man

0:53:34.280 --> 0:53:38.400
<v Speaker 1>to lead. Ooh, I don't know. That caused a lot

0:53:38.480 --> 0:53:41.880
<v Speaker 1>of backlash on social media, saying you can't be a buss,

0:53:41.960 --> 0:53:43.360
<v Speaker 1>but you don't know how to cook, you don't know

0:53:43.480 --> 0:53:46.759
<v Speaker 1>when to be quiet. I mean, it just sounded a

0:53:46.800 --> 0:53:50.839
<v Speaker 1>little crazy to talk about women like that. So I mean,

0:53:50.880 --> 0:53:53.000
<v Speaker 1>I get what he's saying, Like, the only difference is

0:53:53.080 --> 0:53:55.040
<v Speaker 1>it works both ways, like we got to cater to

0:53:55.120 --> 0:53:57.560
<v Speaker 1>each other. Like I personally I can do all that

0:53:57.600 --> 0:53:59.640
<v Speaker 1>except the cooking. All right. If you're a man that

0:53:59.719 --> 0:54:01.239
<v Speaker 1>knows how to cook, great, but I personally don't know

0:54:01.320 --> 0:54:03.000
<v Speaker 1>how to cook. My wife is an amazing cook and

0:54:03.080 --> 0:54:05.600
<v Speaker 1>she learned that from her dad because he's a cook.

0:54:05.680 --> 0:54:07.080
<v Speaker 1>So I think, God, my wife knows how to hold

0:54:07.120 --> 0:54:08.799
<v Speaker 1>it down. The one thing I do disagree with him

0:54:09.040 --> 0:54:12.360
<v Speaker 1>is the if you have to wait to let someone

0:54:12.680 --> 0:54:16.080
<v Speaker 1>let you lead, and maybe you're not a leader, Like

0:54:16.160 --> 0:54:18.080
<v Speaker 1>what does that mean? What does that mean when he says, um,

0:54:18.560 --> 0:54:22.160
<v Speaker 1>a woman have to let you lead? I don't know,

0:54:22.280 --> 0:54:24.560
<v Speaker 1>but I'm all in for roles at the crib, Like

0:54:24.760 --> 0:54:27.160
<v Speaker 1>there's certain things that my wife expects me to do,

0:54:27.200 --> 0:54:28.839
<v Speaker 1>and there's certain things I expect that. What I'm saying

0:54:29.000 --> 0:54:31.160
<v Speaker 1>is it goes both, not like, oh she gonna do this,

0:54:31.320 --> 0:54:34.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna know. It's certain things like you know, for instance,

0:54:34.280 --> 0:54:38.160
<v Speaker 1>and to be quiet. My wife is not taking out

0:54:38.160 --> 0:54:40.600
<v Speaker 1>the garbage. I'm taking out the garbage, yes, and if

0:54:40.640 --> 0:54:44.399
<v Speaker 1>she takes it out, I get upset that take out.

0:54:44.440 --> 0:54:47.440
<v Speaker 1>That's me, all right, And you feel bad when she

0:54:47.480 --> 0:54:50.080
<v Speaker 1>got to tell you to do it. You do what

0:54:50.200 --> 0:54:51.560
<v Speaker 1>she gotta tell you to do what you feel like,

0:54:51.560 --> 0:54:54.000
<v Speaker 1>you didn't do what you're supposed to do, right? What job?

0:54:54.280 --> 0:54:56.560
<v Speaker 1>The kind of what he's saying is that women need

0:54:56.640 --> 0:55:00.400
<v Speaker 1>to let men lead and that I guess when that happens,

0:55:00.440 --> 0:55:03.960
<v Speaker 1>women have to be more submissive. And I don't know

0:55:04.040 --> 0:55:06.080
<v Speaker 1>about that one, but he also said I'm going to

0:55:06.160 --> 0:55:08.000
<v Speaker 1>tell the men to start being men. He said that

0:55:08.200 --> 0:55:11.839
<v Speaker 1>sucker ish should not be rewarded, and what he said

0:55:11.840 --> 0:55:13.960
<v Speaker 1>about the bad be thing too, I agree with that

0:55:14.000 --> 0:55:16.120
<v Speaker 1>because most women who say that they say that based

0:55:16.160 --> 0:55:19.160
<v Speaker 1>off just physical appearance, superficial things. I like when people say,

0:55:19.520 --> 0:55:21.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, they're bad bees for what they are doing,

0:55:21.600 --> 0:55:23.879
<v Speaker 1>for what they are accomplishing, not because of how they look.

0:55:24.200 --> 0:55:26.680
<v Speaker 1>You need to have more than just that. Correct. Well,

0:55:26.719 --> 0:55:29.319
<v Speaker 1>you can be a bad bee and a boss bee

0:55:29.520 --> 0:55:32.840
<v Speaker 1>and not know how to cook. Yeah you can. You

0:55:33.000 --> 0:55:36.719
<v Speaker 1>definitely can't because he said, you can't say I'm talking

0:55:36.719 --> 0:55:39.120
<v Speaker 1>about no, I'm talking about what he said. Oh, this

0:55:39.200 --> 0:55:41.400
<v Speaker 1>is what he said. Okay, he said that woman for

0:55:41.480 --> 0:55:43.319
<v Speaker 1>me is handling your own but knowing how to cater

0:55:43.400 --> 0:55:46.279
<v Speaker 1>to a man's needs. He said, I'm a boss bitch.

0:55:46.400 --> 0:55:48.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm at this. I'm at that. No, baby, but you

0:55:48.160 --> 0:55:50.560
<v Speaker 1>can't cook. You don't know when to be quiet. You

0:55:50.600 --> 0:55:53.320
<v Speaker 1>don't know how to allow a man to lead. And

0:55:53.880 --> 0:55:55.840
<v Speaker 1>I think there's certain times when a woman is going

0:55:55.880 --> 0:55:57.840
<v Speaker 1>to lead in a situation. In certain times when a

0:55:57.920 --> 0:56:00.920
<v Speaker 1>man is going to lead, you gotta be worthy of

0:56:01.040 --> 0:56:03.000
<v Speaker 1>being a leader. Like that person has to look at

0:56:03.040 --> 0:56:04.720
<v Speaker 1>you and say, you know what, this person is worthy

0:56:04.760 --> 0:56:07.080
<v Speaker 1>of being a leader. I'm gonna follow this person because

0:56:07.120 --> 0:56:09.560
<v Speaker 1>they're a good leader, not just because I'm saying, hey, Lee,

0:56:09.920 --> 0:56:12.000
<v Speaker 1>you can let anybody. You can let anybody lead. That

0:56:12.040 --> 0:56:13.560
<v Speaker 1>don't mean that they're a leader. They might lead you

0:56:13.760 --> 0:56:15.479
<v Speaker 1>off a cliff. And like you said, boss bitch, ain't

0:56:15.480 --> 0:56:17.719
<v Speaker 1>gonna do what looks no bad bee, he said bad,

0:56:17.960 --> 0:56:20.920
<v Speaker 1>bad bad bee bad. He said both. He said bad

0:56:20.960 --> 0:56:23.160
<v Speaker 1>and he said boss. And you definitely can't be a

0:56:23.200 --> 0:56:25.520
<v Speaker 1>boss just because of your looks. You know, if you're

0:56:25.520 --> 0:56:27.799
<v Speaker 1>a boss and you actually are in charge of something,

0:56:28.120 --> 0:56:29.600
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, you've got something to show

0:56:29.680 --> 0:56:32.320
<v Speaker 1>for it. All right, Well that is your rumor report.

0:56:32.520 --> 0:56:34.080
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well let's get to the bad bitch in

0:56:34.120 --> 0:56:36.040
<v Speaker 1>the in the room. I'm glad, you know, for a

0:56:36.160 --> 0:56:39.960
<v Speaker 1>number of different reasons I did not I rubbed my

0:56:40.040 --> 0:56:43.440
<v Speaker 1>chest other than just my body. Okay, okay, I am

0:56:43.520 --> 0:56:47.440
<v Speaker 1>a bad beas be right, for a lot of different reasons. Well,

0:56:47.560 --> 0:56:50.840

<v Speaker 1>because of the carelessness and the recklessness of others. Okay,

0:58:27.920 --> 0:58:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know when we will realize that the number

0:58:30.520 --> 0:58:33.160
<v Speaker 1>one thing that keeps us safe out here on this

0:58:33.360 --> 0:58:38.080
<v Speaker 1>planet is human behavior. That's it. We are all relying

0:58:38.160 --> 0:58:39.880
<v Speaker 1>on each other to stay safe. And when you do

0:58:40.120 --> 0:58:42.720
<v Speaker 1>things like decide to drive under the influence, it is

0:58:42.760 --> 0:58:45.200
<v Speaker 1>one of the most selfish decisions you can make, because

0:58:45.240 --> 0:58:47.880
<v Speaker 1>you're not caring about your life so much that you

0:58:48.040 --> 0:58:50.560
<v Speaker 1>decide to get behind the wheel of a car knowing

0:58:50.640 --> 0:58:54.040
<v Speaker 1>you got no business driving. That is not just the

0:58:54.120 --> 0:58:56.560
<v Speaker 1>blatant disregard for the life God gave you, It's a

0:58:56.640 --> 0:58:59.280
<v Speaker 1>blatant disregard for the life for everybody else who is

0:58:59.320 --> 0:59:02.040
<v Speaker 1>on the highway with you. Okay, imagine being the person

0:59:02.240 --> 0:59:05.240
<v Speaker 1>who's not under the influence, got their seatbelt on, licensed

0:59:05.320 --> 0:59:07.880
<v Speaker 1>registration insurance, all of the day. You're driving the way

0:59:07.880 --> 0:59:10.919
<v Speaker 1>you're supposed to, doing everything you're supposed to be doing,

0:59:11.200 --> 0:59:13.760
<v Speaker 1>and you getting the accident, Okay, hit by some donkey

0:59:13.920 --> 0:59:15.920
<v Speaker 1>who decided they just had to drink or get high

0:59:16.120 --> 0:59:18.680
<v Speaker 1>before they got behind the wheel. That is what happened

0:59:18.720 --> 0:59:21.280
<v Speaker 1>in this situation, except it was two bicyclists. Okay, but

0:59:21.360 --> 0:59:23.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they had their helmets on, they were in

0:59:23.520 --> 0:59:25.720
<v Speaker 1>the bike lane. I guarantee they were doing what they

0:59:25.840 --> 0:59:28.760
<v Speaker 1>needed to do to keep the ecosystems safe. And here

0:59:28.880 --> 0:59:32.600
<v Speaker 1>comes the rupture that is Julie. Okay. Now, Julie told

0:59:32.600 --> 0:59:35.360
<v Speaker 1>authorities that she had been admitted to a hospital the

0:59:35.520 --> 0:59:39.080
<v Speaker 1>previous day and had been taking Fentonol through an IV drip.

0:59:39.840 --> 0:59:42.400
<v Speaker 1>She also failed to field sobriety tests after the accident,

0:59:42.440 --> 0:59:44.640
<v Speaker 1>and that's when police decided to lock Julie's ass up

0:59:44.880 --> 0:59:47.480
<v Speaker 1>for suspicion of driving under the influence. So let's be clear,

0:59:47.920 --> 0:59:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Julie arrested in a hit and run accident while under

0:59:51.040 --> 0:59:53.720
<v Speaker 1>the influence that killed two people. That's the real story.

0:59:53.880 --> 0:59:56.520
<v Speaker 1>That's what happened. We could wrap donkey of the day

0:59:56.640 --> 0:59:59.440
<v Speaker 1>right here. Okay, that's it, nothing more, nothing less. When

0:59:59.440 --> 1:00:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I tell you some donkey of the days just sell themselves.

1:00:02.200 --> 1:00:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Trust me when I tell you this, he haaw is selling.

1:00:05.000 --> 1:00:07.760
<v Speaker 1>But that ain't the only reason Julie is getting the

1:00:07.800 --> 1:00:10.880
<v Speaker 1>credit she deserves for being stupid this morning. Okay, See,

1:00:10.920 --> 1:00:14.840
<v Speaker 1>when Julie first got caught, that's not what she told police. Okay,

1:00:15.360 --> 1:00:17.360
<v Speaker 1>of course she did not. At first. She didn't say, hey,

1:00:17.400 --> 1:00:19.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm under the influence. That's why I ended up hitting

1:00:19.240 --> 1:00:22.120
<v Speaker 1>and running and killing two bicyclists. Nope, nope, nope. She

1:00:22.240 --> 1:00:24.520
<v Speaker 1>had another excuse. And when I tell you she pulled

1:00:24.560 --> 1:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>this one out of her ass, I mean it literally,

1:00:27.960 --> 1:00:30.960
<v Speaker 1>according to her, came out of her ass. See. Julie

1:00:32.040 --> 1:00:37.680
<v Speaker 1>told police that the crash happened when she began defecating

1:00:37.760 --> 1:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>on herself uncontrollably due to a medical condition. I'm not

1:00:42.040 --> 1:00:44.040
<v Speaker 1>making this up. I'm looking at the headline in the

1:00:44.200 --> 1:00:48.720
<v Speaker 1>NY Post. The headline reads, Utah woman blames fatal hitting

1:00:48.720 --> 1:00:53.400
<v Speaker 1>and run on uncontrollable defecation. Where I'm from, we call

1:00:53.560 --> 1:00:58.120
<v Speaker 1>that diarrhea. Okay, good old butt mud poogoo pooh water

1:00:58.400 --> 1:01:01.040
<v Speaker 1>that atol flavored you who. Let's go to Fox thirteen

1:01:01.080 --> 1:01:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Salt Lake City for the report. Police An update tonight

1:01:03.400 --> 1:01:06.040
<v Speaker 1>from Southern Utah, we're learning more about the person police

1:01:06.080 --> 1:01:10.280
<v Speaker 1>say hit and killed two brothers in Washington City this weekend.

1:01:10.760 --> 1:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Investigators say the two men were among dozens of cyclists

1:01:14.520 --> 1:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>who were in the bike lane participating in the spring

1:01:17.080 --> 1:01:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Tour of Saint George. They were hit around two yesterday

1:01:19.960 --> 1:01:24.000
<v Speaker 1>afternoon on Telegraph Street in Washington City. Forty seven year

1:01:24.080 --> 1:01:27.240
<v Speaker 1>old Julie and Budge of Hurricane told police she had

1:01:27.280 --> 1:01:41.480
<v Speaker 1>a medical issue m the Julie told police the crash

1:01:41.520 --> 1:01:47.480
<v Speaker 1>happened when she began defecating uncontrollably due to a medical condition. Okay,

1:01:47.760 --> 1:01:50.080
<v Speaker 1>Jesus all right. Julie told police that she had various

1:01:50.120 --> 1:01:53.400
<v Speaker 1>medical issues, including irritable both syndrome, and that condition made

1:01:53.440 --> 1:01:55.880
<v Speaker 1>her defecate on herself without warning, which caused her to

1:01:55.920 --> 1:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>swerve into the men. She also admitted she hit the cyclist,

1:01:59.040 --> 1:02:01.560
<v Speaker 1>but she presented yet another excuse when she said she

1:02:01.600 --> 1:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>couldn't get her vehicle to stop. Now, I didn't read

1:02:03.800 --> 1:02:06.040
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of articles about this situation and listen to

1:02:06.120 --> 1:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of different news reports. If you were going

1:02:08.600 --> 1:02:12.640
<v Speaker 1>to blame this and run, Okay, man, I wish I

1:02:12.680 --> 1:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>could cresh right now. Because according to Julia, it wasn't

1:02:14.440 --> 1:02:16.680
<v Speaker 1>just a hitting run. It was right. Okay, sugar honey,

1:02:16.800 --> 1:02:18.840
<v Speaker 1>iced tea. If you're gonna blame this accident on your

1:02:18.880 --> 1:02:22.720
<v Speaker 1>ands having a dishonorable discharge, okay, if there's a sudden

1:02:23.320 --> 1:02:25.840
<v Speaker 1>muddy playing condition going on in your drawers, then I

1:02:25.920 --> 1:02:29.480
<v Speaker 1>have one question. Where is the dodo? Okay? I didn't

1:02:29.480 --> 1:02:31.680
<v Speaker 1>see one police report that said we found biscuits and

1:02:31.720 --> 1:02:35.320
<v Speaker 1>brown gravy anywhere on you. Okay, I have shoted on

1:02:35.400 --> 1:02:38.280
<v Speaker 1>myself before. You shoted on yourself before, right, and I

1:02:38.400 --> 1:02:41.120
<v Speaker 1>have yes, Okay, happened to me in Columbia Soucoy line

1:02:41.120 --> 1:02:42.439
<v Speaker 1>of the ad L three drop on a Clowes BOMs

1:02:42.440 --> 1:02:46.120
<v Speaker 1>for the Metro. Happened to be right up here. What

1:02:46.160 --> 1:02:47.480
<v Speaker 1>happened to you? Oh yeah, that's when you threw your

1:02:47.560 --> 1:02:50.720
<v Speaker 1>drawers in the trash can. Yep, yeah, yeah, I remember that.

1:02:51.040 --> 1:02:53.080
<v Speaker 1>That's when they really thought some wild stuff going on

1:02:53.160 --> 1:02:57.560
<v Speaker 1>in this field. All right, Just let the record show.

1:02:57.880 --> 1:02:59.640
<v Speaker 1>It happened to me years ago when I was leaving

1:02:59.680 --> 1:03:02.439
<v Speaker 1>a king spot. And you know when your stomach gets

1:03:02.480 --> 1:03:05.680
<v Speaker 1>the bubbling and you can feel that an'tal eruption starting

1:03:05.720 --> 1:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>to happen. When that hits your pants, it startles you,

1:03:09.560 --> 1:03:11.920
<v Speaker 1>but it doesn't make you drive off the road. Okay,

1:03:11.960 --> 1:03:14.440
<v Speaker 1>when you're riding in a Chevy and you're feeling something heavy,

1:03:14.880 --> 1:03:17.040
<v Speaker 1>all right, you know what it is. It's diarrhea. And

1:03:17.160 --> 1:03:19.920
<v Speaker 1>guess what when I turned my underwear into a fudge fountain.

1:03:20.160 --> 1:03:22.160
<v Speaker 1>I've never driven so perfect in my life. Okay. I

1:03:22.200 --> 1:03:23.720
<v Speaker 1>don't want to swerve and look like I'm out of

1:03:23.760 --> 1:03:27.120
<v Speaker 1>control when I had some Jingo jeans full of chocolate coleslaw. So,

1:03:27.280 --> 1:03:31.520
<v Speaker 1>Julie Budgers, who did you expect to believe this? Okay?

1:03:31.560 --> 1:03:33.360
<v Speaker 1>And I go back to my original point. If you

1:03:33.640 --> 1:03:36.520
<v Speaker 1>tell me that doodoo is the cause of your accident

1:03:36.640 --> 1:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>as a police officer, I want to see the doodoo.

1:03:39.760 --> 1:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>That is evidence, all right now. Julie Bridges is being

1:03:42.640 --> 1:03:44.200
<v Speaker 1>charged with, let me look it up, two counts of

1:03:45.400 --> 1:03:49.440
<v Speaker 1>automobile homicide due to criminal negligence, two felony counts of

1:03:49.480 --> 1:03:53.000
<v Speaker 1>failure to remain at an accident involving death, two counts

1:03:53.040 --> 1:03:56.920
<v Speaker 1>of duy with serious bodily injury by negligent operation, and

1:03:57.040 --> 1:04:00.720
<v Speaker 1>one alleged account of it being in run. She was

1:04:00.720 --> 1:04:02.640
<v Speaker 1>also slapped the misdemean a charge of reckless driving and

1:04:02.680 --> 1:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>an infraction for improper plane travel. The moral, the moral

1:04:06.360 --> 1:04:08.560
<v Speaker 1>of the story is, can we all start looking out

1:04:08.600 --> 1:04:11.560
<v Speaker 1>for each other better? Please? Please give Julie budgets the

1:04:11.640 --> 1:04:17.560
<v Speaker 1>biggest he hull. Two people dead just because of the

1:04:17.720 --> 1:04:23.840

1:06:05.520 --> 1:06:08.000
<v Speaker 1>feel guilty saying this, but you actually did really well

1:06:08.360 --> 1:06:11.680
<v Speaker 1>during the pandemic. Yeah, and had a lot of accomplishments. Yeah,

1:06:11.800 --> 1:06:15.080
<v Speaker 1>which was weird. Yeah, sometimes you feel bad like Dan things.

1:06:15.120 --> 1:06:17.240
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't that, you know, you know what. It was

1:06:17.320 --> 1:06:20.360
<v Speaker 1>weird though, because like when we all know, live events

1:06:20.400 --> 1:06:23.560
<v Speaker 1>are a major part of our income, right, Like at

1:06:23.560 --> 1:06:25.800
<v Speaker 1>the end of the day, as a journalist, as a host,

1:06:25.960 --> 1:06:28.520
<v Speaker 1>you make a lot of money doing those. Yeah, let

1:06:28.560 --> 1:06:31.080

<v Speaker 1>events got canceled for those two first months during the pandemic.

1:06:34.000 --> 1:06:36.440
<v Speaker 1>And I'm super big on faith and spirituality, and I

1:06:36.480 --> 1:06:38.560
<v Speaker 1>remember just surrendering because I was freaking out, like I

1:06:38.720 --> 1:06:40.800
<v Speaker 1>was like, oh my god, what's gonna like, literally, what

1:06:40.840 --> 1:06:42.479
<v Speaker 1>am I gonna do? I don't got the breakfast club,

1:06:42.560 --> 1:06:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm not, you know, I didn't have a good

1:06:44.720 --> 1:06:48.320
<v Speaker 1>hello exactly take a little cut, yeah, right, And so

1:06:48.920 --> 1:06:55.920
<v Speaker 1>we had to take that week goal. Oh we did choice.

1:06:56.120 --> 1:06:57.800
<v Speaker 1>I didn't remember when it came back because that's when

1:06:57.880 --> 1:07:00.120
<v Speaker 1>George Floyd passed. Remember came back when the end was

1:07:00.160 --> 1:07:02.320
<v Speaker 1>by myself. I used to go ahead to you, no,

1:07:02.480 --> 1:07:03.840
<v Speaker 1>but I was because I was like, that was a

1:07:03.880 --> 1:07:05.640
<v Speaker 1>good point like that was bad. But yeah, so I

1:07:05.720 --> 1:07:08.840
<v Speaker 1>remember just praying, being like, Lord, you open up whatever

1:07:09.000 --> 1:07:11.560
<v Speaker 1>you want me to do, and literally the opportunity started

1:07:11.600 --> 1:07:13.640
<v Speaker 1>to come after. I just started to get on Instagram

1:07:13.720 --> 1:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>lives like everybody else and interview people, Like actually interviewing

1:07:16.920 --> 1:07:19.560
<v Speaker 1>people on live just kept me sane and in in

1:07:20.000 --> 1:07:22.120
<v Speaker 1>my craft. So that was really dope. What did you

1:07:22.200 --> 1:07:29.200
<v Speaker 1>learn about yourself? Pemic One that I trust myself, I

1:07:29.360 --> 1:07:32.080
<v Speaker 1>trust who I am, I actually respect who I'm becoming.

1:07:32.200 --> 1:07:34.760
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing in this, in this in my career that

1:07:34.960 --> 1:07:39.280
<v Speaker 1>I have been given. I earned every single spot that

1:07:39.440 --> 1:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>I have ever been a part of. I started interning.

1:07:42.400 --> 1:07:45.640
<v Speaker 1>My first internship was with Donnie Simpson in his last

1:07:45.960 --> 1:07:49.480
<v Speaker 1>year in Radio UM in DC Warning Radio UM and

1:07:49.720 --> 1:07:52.080
<v Speaker 1>like that that was ten years ago and so like

1:07:52.480 --> 1:07:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I earned it. So you know, that was the biggest

1:07:55.120 --> 1:07:56.280
<v Speaker 1>thing for me. It was like I got to stop

1:07:56.320 --> 1:07:58.920
<v Speaker 1>doubting myself. I have to learn what to be confident

1:07:58.960 --> 1:08:01.120
<v Speaker 1>about in myself. And so I just fell in love

1:08:01.160 --> 1:08:03.400
<v Speaker 1>with who I am and I gave myself back to me.

1:08:03.640 --> 1:08:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Like I think for so many, so many of us,

1:08:05.960 --> 1:08:08.920
<v Speaker 1>we absorb people's energies and we become like reflections of

1:08:09.000 --> 1:08:11.200
<v Speaker 1>who they are instead of finding out who we really are.

1:08:11.280 --> 1:08:13.080
<v Speaker 1>And so the pandemic allowed me to just like get

1:08:13.120 --> 1:08:15.240
<v Speaker 1>away from everything that was a bar And I don't

1:08:15.640 --> 1:08:18.400
<v Speaker 1>say that again. We because we are around so many

1:08:18.479 --> 1:08:21.599
<v Speaker 1>people in energies, we end up absorbing and reflecting who

1:08:21.720 --> 1:08:23.920
<v Speaker 1>they are instead of who we really are. And so

1:08:24.320 --> 1:08:27.360
<v Speaker 1>what I realized was I was becoming reflections of all

1:08:27.400 --> 1:08:29.240
<v Speaker 1>these people that I loved and admire. Right, it wasn't

1:08:29.320 --> 1:08:32.519
<v Speaker 1>bad reflections, but it wasn't me. And so I was

1:08:32.560 --> 1:08:35.040
<v Speaker 1>able to sit with myself and be like, I don't

1:08:35.120 --> 1:08:39.320
<v Speaker 1>care that much about the beef. Like people just beef

1:08:39.439 --> 1:08:41.000
<v Speaker 1>is a part of the job, right, so you have

1:08:41.080 --> 1:08:43.320
<v Speaker 1>to cover it. But I'm like, I really don't care.

1:08:43.439 --> 1:08:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I get it, Like this has nothing to do with me. So,

1:08:46.560 --> 1:08:47.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, I just if we have to talk about

1:08:48.000 --> 1:08:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Will Smith Chris rob one more time, I think I'm

1:08:50.040 --> 1:08:52.400
<v Speaker 1>a pass, Well, it's a bigger conversation, even when it

1:08:52.520 --> 1:08:56.000
<v Speaker 1>is stuff like that. What's the bigger conversation, right? You

1:08:56.040 --> 1:08:57.360
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? I mean, for me, for that,

1:08:57.439 --> 1:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>it's mental health. With that, it's emotional intelligence. Men learning

1:09:00.040 --> 1:09:02.960
<v Speaker 1>not a process the emotions without violence. That's a bigger conversation. Yeah,

1:09:03.040 --> 1:09:05.360
<v Speaker 1>it's everybody like there is no winner in that. There

1:09:05.479 --> 1:09:08.400
<v Speaker 1>is no winner in that situation. It's really sad to

1:09:08.439 --> 1:09:11.320
<v Speaker 1>see all four parts. So um yeah, but yeah, that's

1:09:11.360 --> 1:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>the biggest thing I did. I gave myself back to me.

1:09:13.400 --> 1:09:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I want to I want to do one of these

1:09:14.920 --> 1:09:16.479
<v Speaker 1>posts that you do because I want to go through

1:09:16.520 --> 1:09:19.200

1:09:19.280 --> 1:09:23.600

<v Speaker 1>co president of the Recording Academy and just ran it

1:10:57.479 --> 1:11:00.120
<v Speaker 1>up at the Grammys. Um. But you know, we we

1:11:00.240 --> 1:11:02.040
<v Speaker 1>came up together in this industry, and that was my

1:11:02.120 --> 1:11:04.559
<v Speaker 1>favorite part of like being a part of my peer group,

1:11:04.640 --> 1:11:08.519
<v Speaker 1>like Scottie Bam, Sylvia Obell, Danielle Young, like, so all

1:11:08.600 --> 1:11:11.560
<v Speaker 1>of us came up together, especially in New York. And

1:11:11.720 --> 1:11:14.400
<v Speaker 1>so when I had them and Ween, like we really

1:11:14.479 --> 1:11:16.799
<v Speaker 1>felt like we had community. And then Black Girl Podcast

1:11:16.880 --> 1:11:19.960
<v Speaker 1>we formed that and so we learned really quickly early

1:11:20.080 --> 1:11:22.880
<v Speaker 1>on that like you need each other, we need people.

1:11:23.000 --> 1:11:24.560
<v Speaker 1>You have to have people that you can talk to

1:11:24.640 --> 1:11:28.320
<v Speaker 1>in this industry. And so yeah, yeah, that's you're one

1:11:28.320 --> 1:11:31.160
<v Speaker 1>of the people. Always mentioned him say this person should

1:11:31.200 --> 1:11:32.920
<v Speaker 1>have been on the radio a long time ago. It

1:11:33.000 --> 1:11:36.200
<v Speaker 1>doesn't seem like radios and interest anymore. Oh, I mean

1:11:36.320 --> 1:11:38.880
<v Speaker 1>I love radio right, like it was my that's my

1:11:39.000 --> 1:11:43.240
<v Speaker 1>first love. Radio. Like growing up in DC, we used

1:11:43.280 --> 1:11:46.280
<v Speaker 1>to live for the radio and like every morning, my

1:11:46.400 --> 1:11:48.879
<v Speaker 1>mom we would play Donnie Simpson. Then in the afternoons

1:11:48.920 --> 1:11:51.920
<v Speaker 1>and evenings it would be Big Tigger, DJ Flex and Rain,

1:11:52.080 --> 1:11:53.840
<v Speaker 1>like it was such a thing for us. And so

1:11:54.680 --> 1:11:56.519
<v Speaker 1>when I was able to get into radio, that was

1:11:56.600 --> 1:11:59.280
<v Speaker 1>where I affirmed that I could do this. Donnie Simpson

1:11:59.600 --> 1:12:03.519
<v Speaker 1>was is literal joy, Like it's there's certain people that

1:12:03.640 --> 1:12:05.920
<v Speaker 1>you meet and you're just like, I think, I don't

1:12:05.960 --> 1:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>think you're human, Like you're just so nice, like your

1:12:09.080 --> 1:12:11.519
<v Speaker 1>literal joy. And he used to One of my favorite

1:12:11.520 --> 1:12:15.240
<v Speaker 1>things was he was like fifty something when I met

1:12:15.360 --> 1:12:17.800
<v Speaker 1>him and had been the original VJ. Like, first of all,

1:12:17.840 --> 1:12:20.000
<v Speaker 1>all journalists, if you know who Donnie Simpson is, you

1:12:20.160 --> 1:12:23.160
<v Speaker 1>must do your craft work like Donnie. He is the

1:12:23.240 --> 1:12:26.800
<v Speaker 1>original VJ, the original green eyed sole person like he's

1:12:27.040 --> 1:12:29.800
<v Speaker 1>He's always been this guy that I loved. And in

1:12:29.920 --> 1:12:33.439
<v Speaker 1>that time, the industry was very much reflective of making

1:12:33.479 --> 1:12:36.160
<v Speaker 1>the band, like if you you wasn't about to kill

1:12:36.240 --> 1:12:37.840
<v Speaker 1>the other person next to you and walk across the

1:12:37.880 --> 1:12:42.080
<v Speaker 1>bridge to get some cheesecake making in this industry, and

1:12:42.120 --> 1:12:44.320
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I just I like people like I

1:12:44.360 --> 1:12:46.120
<v Speaker 1>don't want to have to harm anyone to get to

1:12:46.200 --> 1:12:49.080
<v Speaker 1>the top. And Donnie affirmed that I could be a

1:12:49.200 --> 1:12:51.559
<v Speaker 1>kind human being, like no matter what, it didn't matter

1:12:51.600 --> 1:12:53.920
<v Speaker 1>if it was Jill Scott or the janitor. Everybody who

1:12:54.000 --> 1:12:57.160
<v Speaker 1>came into his studio when he was there left feeling better.

1:12:57.400 --> 1:12:59.240
<v Speaker 1>And so that affirmed that I could do it too,

1:12:59.360 --> 1:13:00.479
<v Speaker 1>Like I was like, oh, I want to do that.

1:13:00.479 --> 1:13:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I want to make sure that if I'm seeing people,

1:13:02.040 --> 1:13:04.479
<v Speaker 1>I see people like I see you like you matter

1:13:04.600 --> 1:13:08.640
<v Speaker 1>to me, and that with so many suicides and so

1:13:08.760 --> 1:13:12.599
<v Speaker 1>many things happening, that is even more important to me now.

1:13:12.960 --> 1:13:15.600
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that's that. My first love is radio, but

1:13:15.720 --> 1:13:18.040
<v Speaker 1>always into television. I want to create more projects. I

1:13:18.080 --> 1:13:20.920
<v Speaker 1>have so many show ideas that I believe now now

1:13:21.080 --> 1:13:22.360
<v Speaker 1>is the time for me to actually just kind of

1:13:22.360 --> 1:13:26.240
<v Speaker 1>step into my own and create more storytelling. But yeah,

1:13:26.360 --> 1:13:28.720
<v Speaker 1>I love all forms of media. I don't think we

1:13:28.800 --> 1:13:30.639
<v Speaker 1>have to do radio. I think radio was a dream

1:13:31.000 --> 1:13:32.960
<v Speaker 1>because that was it. It was either radio or TV

1:13:33.120 --> 1:13:35.040
<v Speaker 1>all I well, don't hope we got more with Gia Peppers.

1:13:35.080 --> 1:13:37.519
<v Speaker 1>When we come back. It's the Breakfast Club, Good Morning Pring.

1:13:37.600 --> 1:13:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we

1:13:41.640 --> 1:13:45.400
<v Speaker 1>all the Breakfast Club is still kicking it with Gia Peppers. Ye. Yeah.

1:13:45.439 --> 1:13:49.120
<v Speaker 1>What about obstacles that you've had? Do we have time?

1:13:50.280 --> 1:13:53.719
<v Speaker 1>Because we also know being in this business, being a woman,

1:13:53.800 --> 1:13:56.160
<v Speaker 1>being a black woman can be a lot more difficult.

1:13:56.200 --> 1:13:58.000
<v Speaker 1>So what were some of the things that you went through?

1:13:58.320 --> 1:14:00.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that to overcome. The biggest thing I think

1:14:00.439 --> 1:14:05.320
<v Speaker 1>that I went through was real I remember. So watching

1:14:05.840 --> 1:14:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Genius was so beautiful to me. Shout out to Chika

1:14:09.040 --> 1:14:13.479
<v Speaker 1>and Kudi and Kanye. As complicated as the feelings I

1:14:13.560 --> 1:14:17.360
<v Speaker 1>have about Kanye, very complicated, But what I really loved

1:14:17.400 --> 1:14:20.360
<v Speaker 1>to watch in that documentary was like that hustle of

1:14:20.439 --> 1:14:22.880
<v Speaker 1>going into offices every day and trying to get people

1:14:22.880 --> 1:14:25.120
<v Speaker 1>to see you, because that was me, Like I my

1:14:25.280 --> 1:14:29.120
<v Speaker 1>first few breaks on TV was just on hosting in general.

1:14:29.160 --> 1:14:30.880
<v Speaker 1>It was just me going into offices and me like, no,

1:14:30.960 --> 1:14:33.040
<v Speaker 1>I promise you, I'm gonna kill it, Like I promise you,

1:14:33.080 --> 1:14:34.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna kill it, and people being like you should

1:14:34.840 --> 1:14:37.080
<v Speaker 1>probably go into local news. You're a really nice girl.

1:14:37.360 --> 1:14:39.720
<v Speaker 1>You couldn't do great in Milwaukee. Now I'm not going

1:14:39.760 --> 1:14:42.280
<v Speaker 1>to Milwaukee. I live in New York. So y'all gonna

1:14:42.280 --> 1:14:44.080
<v Speaker 1>give me a chance to show you or not. And

1:14:44.200 --> 1:14:46.760
<v Speaker 1>so for me, it was always just trying to prove

1:14:46.960 --> 1:14:49.839
<v Speaker 1>that that I could do it and then finally believing

1:14:49.880 --> 1:14:52.559
<v Speaker 1>it myself. I was so used to struggling that when

1:14:52.640 --> 1:14:55.200
<v Speaker 1>things started to finally happen, I couldn't believe it, like

1:14:55.280 --> 1:14:58.080
<v Speaker 1>I was sabotaging it for myself, like I'd be like, oh,

1:14:58.560 --> 1:15:02.120
<v Speaker 1>it's not really a good ideal. It's just that I

1:15:02.120 --> 1:15:04.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel worthy of it because I'm so used to

1:15:04.240 --> 1:15:06.800
<v Speaker 1>grasping for it. When I finally got it, that's a

1:15:06.880 --> 1:15:09.400
<v Speaker 1>whole different type of lifestyle and mindset you had to have,

1:15:09.560 --> 1:15:11.559
<v Speaker 1>And so for me, it was grasping that, but then

1:15:11.640 --> 1:15:15.880
<v Speaker 1>also being paid less then men in this industry is

1:15:15.880 --> 1:15:18.200
<v Speaker 1>still a real thing, and it's a thing across all industries,

1:15:18.320 --> 1:15:21.120
<v Speaker 1>especially for black women. We all know the gender pay

1:15:21.160 --> 1:15:23.280
<v Speaker 1>gap is super real, but for black women, I think

1:15:23.320 --> 1:15:26.000
<v Speaker 1>we made like twain cents on the dollar compared to

1:15:26.080 --> 1:15:28.120
<v Speaker 1>like white men. And don't calle me on that. I'm

1:15:28.160 --> 1:15:30.080
<v Speaker 1>going to research that, but I know it's a it's

1:15:30.120 --> 1:15:33.280
<v Speaker 1>a there's a major gap. And so for me, standing

1:15:33.360 --> 1:15:35.880
<v Speaker 1>up for myself and negotiating what I really need has

1:15:36.000 --> 1:15:38.720
<v Speaker 1>been one of the hardest things because we all know

1:15:38.800 --> 1:15:42.120
<v Speaker 1>it's a relationship to a relationship, opportunity to opportunity industry.

1:15:42.320 --> 1:15:43.960
<v Speaker 1>So just because you do it in one place doesn't

1:15:43.960 --> 1:15:47.519
<v Speaker 1>mean they get you in another place. So for me,

1:15:47.640 --> 1:15:49.680
<v Speaker 1>I've always been like, all right, the rate is the rate.

1:15:50.200 --> 1:15:53.120
<v Speaker 1>If it's an opportunity that I really love will sometimes

1:15:53.200 --> 1:15:55.680
<v Speaker 1>we can do something with it. But I'm trying to

1:15:55.760 --> 1:15:58.960
<v Speaker 1>be real about me being a businesswoman and me understanding that.

1:15:59.040 --> 1:16:01.360
<v Speaker 1>And so for me, the biggest struggles were there, and

1:16:01.439 --> 1:16:04.400
<v Speaker 1>then like self worth, like understanding that I am enough.

1:16:04.720 --> 1:16:08.320
<v Speaker 1>What I say matters, my story matters. I didn't grow

1:16:08.400 --> 1:16:10.160
<v Speaker 1>up like everybody else, but that doesn't mean that I

1:16:10.240 --> 1:16:13.519
<v Speaker 1>have to be anybody else. Um and understanding that, like

1:16:14.320 --> 1:16:18.120
<v Speaker 1>not not being afraid of light, and being happy and

1:16:18.280 --> 1:16:20.680
<v Speaker 1>being good and and and being a person who like

1:16:20.920 --> 1:16:24.280
<v Speaker 1>likes to be integral, Like I don't care everybody can keep.

1:16:24.280 --> 1:16:26.280
<v Speaker 1>It's a lot of shade out here. The Shade Room

1:16:26.400 --> 1:16:30.560
<v Speaker 1>is grateful what they do. I follow them, but I

1:16:30.720 --> 1:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>think that like, there also needs to be platforms that

1:16:34.000 --> 1:16:37.320
<v Speaker 1>are just as powerful that do the opposite of that right,

1:16:37.400 --> 1:16:40.080
<v Speaker 1>And it doesn't have to be quote unquote corny. You

1:16:40.120 --> 1:16:42.040
<v Speaker 1>can still tell a great story, but what are what

1:16:42.160 --> 1:16:44.000
<v Speaker 1>are we giving people at the end of that, what

1:16:44.320 --> 1:16:46.320
<v Speaker 1>are they walking away with? And so that's what I'm

1:16:46.360 --> 1:16:51.240
<v Speaker 1>really focused on doing. The daytime talk India's future. Thank you, Gia.

1:16:55.479 --> 1:16:57.519
<v Speaker 1>My friends were like, I'm so surprised you never went

1:16:57.600 --> 1:17:00.719
<v Speaker 1>up there because they're always correcting your neck, always saying

1:17:01.200 --> 1:17:03.880
<v Speaker 1>isn't it G and you It's always like, no, it's G.

1:17:05.960 --> 1:17:10.639
<v Speaker 1>You did the years I didn't. It's okay's and gear

1:17:10.800 --> 1:17:15.760
<v Speaker 1>when you get there. Yeah, thank you, Thank you guys.

1:17:16.520 --> 1:17:18.840
<v Speaker 1>It's not every time your name is always mentioned in

1:17:19.360 --> 1:17:21.960
<v Speaker 1>every TV room when it comes to any thank you

1:17:22.240 --> 1:17:25.599
<v Speaker 1>talking anything. Thank shows all the time. Thank you, somebody

1:17:25.680 --> 1:17:30.760
<v Speaker 1>hiring me, give me the job, two jobson. That's my sister.

1:17:30.840 --> 1:17:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I love her so much. She's She's another person that

1:17:33.000 --> 1:17:34.880
<v Speaker 1>can do no wrong and do everything right. But thank

1:17:34.920 --> 1:17:37.040
<v Speaker 1>you guys so much for having me. Everybody, please tune

1:17:37.040 --> 1:17:42.479
<v Speaker 1>into more than that everyone, Thank you more than that.

1:17:43.240 --> 1:18:01.599
<v Speaker 1>Thank you guys. The Breakfast Club, it's about report Angela. Well.

1:18:01.720 --> 1:18:05.439
<v Speaker 1>Rihanna is on the cover of Vogue magazine and the

1:18:05.640 --> 1:18:09.400
<v Speaker 1>article Oh baby, Rihanna's plus one. So it's a great shoot.

1:18:09.400 --> 1:18:10.840
<v Speaker 1>If you guys have a chance to go and take

1:18:10.880 --> 1:18:13.120
<v Speaker 1>a look at it. You can actually look at it

1:18:13.200 --> 1:18:16.960
<v Speaker 1>online right now. The whole entire article is out and

1:18:17.600 --> 1:18:20.400
<v Speaker 1>she talks about the internet having all types of thoughts

1:18:20.520 --> 1:18:22.879
<v Speaker 1>like how dare she be this naked and this pregnant?

1:18:23.160 --> 1:18:25.400
<v Speaker 1>But the vast majority of people greeted the moment with

1:18:25.479 --> 1:18:27.640
<v Speaker 1>a collective chair. Here was a beautiful woman at her

1:18:27.680 --> 1:18:31.000
<v Speaker 1>most abundant, sexy, and strong, delighting in the creative play

1:18:31.080 --> 1:18:35.120
<v Speaker 1>of getting dressed. So she also talks about her pregnancy.

1:18:35.720 --> 1:18:38.360
<v Speaker 1>In this article, she talks about getting really close with

1:18:38.520 --> 1:18:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Asat Rocky during the pandemic. She said that he became

1:18:42.000 --> 1:18:44.080
<v Speaker 1>her family during that time and she feels like she

1:18:44.160 --> 1:18:47.080
<v Speaker 1>can do any part of life by his side. She

1:18:47.240 --> 1:18:49.320
<v Speaker 1>also talked about how it took some time to get

1:18:49.360 --> 1:18:51.800
<v Speaker 1>over how well they knew each other in a frank capacity.

1:18:52.320 --> 1:18:54.559
<v Speaker 1>So sometimes somebody is friend zoned and then you don't

1:18:54.560 --> 1:18:58.120
<v Speaker 1>look at them in that way. But they did manage

1:18:58.360 --> 1:19:02.040
<v Speaker 1>to get through that clearly, So congratulations to the two

1:19:02.080 --> 1:19:05.320
<v Speaker 1>of them. That's interesting because the best relationships start from friendships,

1:19:05.360 --> 1:19:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Like your significant others should be your best friend, right,

1:19:08.240 --> 1:19:10.040
<v Speaker 1>But sometimes you feel like, I don't know if I

1:19:10.080 --> 1:19:12.200
<v Speaker 1>want to ruin this friendship in case things don't work out.

1:19:12.240 --> 1:19:14.639
<v Speaker 1>If y'all are really really tight and you find yourself

1:19:14.680 --> 1:19:17.480
<v Speaker 1>attracted to somebody, and then you take those things into consideration.

1:19:17.880 --> 1:19:19.800
<v Speaker 1>So she said it did take some time to get

1:19:19.880 --> 1:19:22.679
<v Speaker 1>over that. When it works, you're elevating the friendship actually

1:19:22.960 --> 1:19:26.200
<v Speaker 1>taking me too. And she also said that she recalled

1:19:26.240 --> 1:19:28.040
<v Speaker 1>thinking to herself there was no way she would be

1:19:28.080 --> 1:19:30.680
<v Speaker 1>shopping in maternity section. She said, I'm sorry, it's too

1:19:30.800 --> 1:19:32.479
<v Speaker 1>much fun to get dressed up. I'm not going to

1:19:32.600 --> 1:19:35.920
<v Speaker 1>let that part disappear because my body is changing. And

1:19:36.080 --> 1:19:38.919
<v Speaker 1>she said her goal is, in her words, to redefine

1:19:38.960 --> 1:19:43.439
<v Speaker 1>what's considered decent for pregnant women. So there you go,

1:19:44.080 --> 1:19:48.880
<v Speaker 1>all right now, w NBA's Kathy Engelbert, the commissioner is

1:19:49.000 --> 1:19:52.960
<v Speaker 1>talking about Brittney Griner. They kicked off Monday's WNBA draft

1:19:53.040 --> 1:19:55.759
<v Speaker 1>with an update on Britney Griner and she does remain

1:19:55.840 --> 1:19:59.080
<v Speaker 1>imprisoned in a Russian jail. Here's what the commissioner had

1:19:59.120 --> 1:20:02.240
<v Speaker 1>to say before we get into tonight's events. I want

1:20:02.280 --> 1:20:05.479
<v Speaker 1>to take a moment to reiterate the WNBA support for

1:20:05.640 --> 1:20:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Phoenix Mercury Star Britney Griner. Please know that getting her

1:20:10.040 --> 1:20:14.240
<v Speaker 1>home safely continues to be our top priority, and while

1:20:14.280 --> 1:20:18.799
<v Speaker 1>we are facing an extraordinarily complex challenge, there is strength

1:20:18.880 --> 1:20:24.040
<v Speaker 1>and community, especially the WNBA. She said, I know we're

1:20:24.040 --> 1:20:25.880
<v Speaker 1>all frustrated, but we do need to be patient. I

1:20:25.960 --> 1:20:28.200
<v Speaker 1>know the players have been amazing at following the advice

1:20:28.280 --> 1:20:30.560
<v Speaker 1>that they're getting and we're getting in order to not

1:20:30.680 --> 1:20:33.160
<v Speaker 1>jeopardize her safety in any way. So we just continue

1:20:33.200 --> 1:20:35.800
<v Speaker 1>to follow that advice and continue to work on it,

1:20:37.160 --> 1:20:39.840
<v Speaker 1>all right, So prayers out to Britney Griner. I know

1:20:39.960 --> 1:20:42.680
<v Speaker 1>they said she is safe fortunately, and I know it's

1:20:42.680 --> 1:20:46.839
<v Speaker 1>a crazy situation. She's been detained since February after allegedly

1:20:46.920 --> 1:20:50.719
<v Speaker 1>being found with cartridges containing hash during an airport security

1:20:50.800 --> 1:20:53.799
<v Speaker 1>check in Moscow. And I do wonder if more noises

1:20:53.840 --> 1:20:57.120
<v Speaker 1>in being made about this situation because they don't, you know,

1:20:57.360 --> 1:20:58.760
<v Speaker 1>for lack of a better term, don't want her to

1:20:58.760 --> 1:21:02.320
<v Speaker 1>seem so important because then she'd be a bigger political

1:21:02.400 --> 1:21:05.120
<v Speaker 1>piece for Russia. I heard somebody say that before. That's

1:21:05.160 --> 1:21:07.000
<v Speaker 1>why they have been telling people not to make too

1:21:07.080 --> 1:21:09.360
<v Speaker 1>much noise about it. Well, the commissioner said they are

1:21:09.520 --> 1:21:12.840
<v Speaker 1>following the advice that they're getting to not jeopardize her

1:21:12.880 --> 1:21:15.000
<v Speaker 1>safety in any way. So I'm sure the reason why

1:21:15.760 --> 1:21:18.160
<v Speaker 1>is because they're being told what to say, what not

1:21:18.280 --> 1:21:21.040
<v Speaker 1>to say, and what to do. So we're praying for

1:21:21.200 --> 1:21:24.200
<v Speaker 1>her safe return though, all right. Tory Lane says that

1:21:24.280 --> 1:21:27.200
<v Speaker 1>he was not talking about Megan the Stallion and the shooting.

1:21:27.280 --> 1:21:29.880
<v Speaker 1>On his new song Mucky James, he said, I see

1:21:29.920 --> 1:21:32.000
<v Speaker 1>all these blocks trying to connect it to and honestly,

1:21:32.040 --> 1:21:33.720
<v Speaker 1>I have more sense than that. I would not play

1:21:33.760 --> 1:21:36.040
<v Speaker 1>with the court order or the judge like that. Please

1:21:36.120 --> 1:21:40.519
<v Speaker 1>stop that narrative. So those are his words, all right.

1:21:40.600 --> 1:21:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Larry David has confirmed a new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm,

1:21:44.479 --> 1:21:48.200
<v Speaker 1>season twelve. He confirmed that Sunday night at an Emmy's

1:21:48.240 --> 1:21:50.840
<v Speaker 1>event that was presented by HBO Max. They had a

1:21:50.920 --> 1:21:53.720
<v Speaker 1>screening of season eleven episode The Watermelon, as well as

1:21:53.720 --> 1:21:58.439
<v Speaker 1>a live panel discussion. And so there's no further details

1:21:58.520 --> 1:22:00.960
<v Speaker 1>on season twelve. But y'all know, I love of Your Enthusiasm.

1:22:01.400 --> 1:22:03.920
<v Speaker 1>It's eleven seasons they've had so far, spread out over

1:22:04.280 --> 1:22:06.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty one years. I never got into it. I never

1:22:06.479 --> 1:22:08.680
<v Speaker 1>I never watched. It's hilarious. You could watch it on

1:22:08.720 --> 1:22:10.720
<v Speaker 1>the plane. They show a lot of episodes. I'll check

1:22:10.720 --> 1:22:12.680
<v Speaker 1>it out next flight when you're flying. But it's really

1:22:12.720 --> 1:22:16.120
<v Speaker 1>really funny. Jabe smooths on there. M Vica Fox is

1:22:16.120 --> 1:22:18.080
<v Speaker 1>on there for a while, Wanda Sykes is on there.

1:22:18.840 --> 1:22:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Um you don't you didn't never watch Seinfeld either? No?

1:22:22.520 --> 1:22:25.320
<v Speaker 1>All right, well, you know he created Seinfeld Larry David

1:22:25.640 --> 1:22:28.080
<v Speaker 1>all Right. Rick Ross has revealed that he's filming his

1:22:28.200 --> 1:22:32.200
<v Speaker 1>own TV show and it will be about wealth. Here's

1:22:32.240 --> 1:22:35.559
<v Speaker 1>what he had to say, and the perfect time is now. Yeah,

1:22:35.800 --> 1:22:37.400
<v Speaker 1>So what I'm gonna do is go ahead. I'm gonna

1:22:37.400 --> 1:22:40.080
<v Speaker 1>do me a show the time now. It's gonna be

1:22:40.160 --> 1:22:43.960
<v Speaker 1>about wealth based on success. We actually film it right now,

1:22:44.040 --> 1:22:45.639
<v Speaker 1>but I hope you're all ready for it because I'm

1:22:45.640 --> 1:22:49.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna talk some big numbers. Big numbers. It's the nine

1:22:49.960 --> 1:22:54.400
<v Speaker 1>figure club. You figure, ladies, blow me a kiss, make

1:22:54.520 --> 1:22:58.400
<v Speaker 1>love to me. In the metaverse, when when you say

1:22:58.439 --> 1:23:00.720
<v Speaker 1>you're making a show about wealth, that he's going to

1:23:00.800 --> 1:23:03.559
<v Speaker 1>teach people how to make money or show them how

1:23:03.640 --> 1:23:05.640
<v Speaker 1>he's making money, because nobody just wants to see a

1:23:05.680 --> 1:23:07.599
<v Speaker 1>show about wealth in two dollars twenty two and gas

1:23:07.640 --> 1:23:09.320
<v Speaker 1>prices right at all time, I thought it was he

1:23:09.400 --> 1:23:11.599
<v Speaker 1>was highlighting people that are doing well from the community,

1:23:11.640 --> 1:23:13.439
<v Speaker 1>that adam making money. That's what I thought. I could

1:23:13.439 --> 1:23:17.200
<v Speaker 1>be wrong. Well, they haven't given much information. It's unclear

1:23:17.200 --> 1:23:19.160
<v Speaker 1>if he's going to be on camera or he'll be

1:23:19.240 --> 1:23:23.559
<v Speaker 1>behind the scenes. But you know, some way, somehow, he's

1:23:23.600 --> 1:23:27.480
<v Speaker 1>gonna be talking about wealth. Let's just maybe it'll be entrepreneurship,

1:23:27.600 --> 1:23:30.680
<v Speaker 1>maybe it'll be I hope so, I hope it's educational, Yeah,

1:23:30.720 --> 1:23:32.840
<v Speaker 1>because nobody wants to see any lifestyles of the rich

1:23:32.880 --> 1:23:35.560
<v Speaker 1>and famous type stuff going on right now when the

1:23:36.160 --> 1:23:38.639
<v Speaker 1>gap between the halves and the have nots is so wide.

1:23:38.880 --> 1:23:42.000
<v Speaker 1>But with his business ventures, with his music, with his investments,

1:23:42.080 --> 1:23:44.799
<v Speaker 1>he's got a reported net worth of forty million dollars

1:23:44.920 --> 1:23:47.720
<v Speaker 1>to date, Ross doing great, So maybe some people want

1:23:47.720 --> 1:23:50.640
<v Speaker 1>to see how can they put themselves in position or

1:23:50.680 --> 1:23:53.400
<v Speaker 1>what are some ways that he's done what he's managed

1:23:53.400 --> 1:23:55.280
<v Speaker 1>to do with his portfolio, because it's not all just

1:23:55.400 --> 1:23:57.600
<v Speaker 1>for music, clearly, it's got to be it's got to

1:23:57.640 --> 1:23:59.600
<v Speaker 1>be educational. Yeah, I think for Ross, I think the

1:23:59.640 --> 1:24:01.799
<v Speaker 1>major if it is outside of music, whether it's Checkers,

1:24:01.840 --> 1:24:04.879
<v Speaker 1>wing Stop, or liquor brand or all the other restaurants,

1:24:04.880 --> 1:24:06.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's soon to be car shows. You know you're

1:24:06.200 --> 1:24:08.479
<v Speaker 1>gonna take He's gonna take the car show game, like

1:24:08.560 --> 1:24:11.280

1:24:16.080 --> 1:24:18.560
<v Speaker 1>the car show. I feel like for that. No, I

1:24:18.640 --> 1:24:19.960
