Start with headline news and journey into layered conversations, 4 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: always finding those life lessons that are presented in every 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 1: single story. I'm ourselves, Wally, that dude, And this week 6 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: I want to chop up some woods, starting with the 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: NFL playoffs, especially Patrick Mahomes is ankle. You gotta take 8 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: you all through that process. A high ankle sprain is 9 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:36,319 Speaker 1: what he's been diagnosed as having. Oh, when you get 10 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: a high ankle sprain, you're just mad at it's not 11 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,239 Speaker 1: a low ankle sprain. Isn't that crazy? Like when we 12 00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 1: grew up, we used to always think about ankle sprains, 13 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: and everybody always thought, you gotta wear high tops so 14 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: you don't spring ankles. And if you wear high tops, 15 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: not only won't you spear your ankles, but if you do, 16 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: you just be out for a couple of weeks or 17 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: whatever it may be just with a low ankle spring. 18 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: And then I don't know when it happened. It felt 19 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: like in nineties, it felt like, you know, when Woul 20 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 1: Tang came out of something like stuff shifted, stuff changed, 21 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,040 Speaker 1: like low ankle sprains all of a sudden had a 22 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: homie called high ankle springs. I was like, who are they? 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,199 Speaker 1: And then I got one and I was like, oh 24 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: my god. A high ankle spring really compromises not only 25 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,839 Speaker 1: your foot and your lower ankle the ball, the joint, 26 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: but it goes up your leg. I'm talking about your calf. 27 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 1: Your calf is on fire, your shins tight, even your 28 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 1: knee is undermined, and you just feel like all of 29 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: your lower extremities are just gone, just lost. And you're like, 30 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 1: damn off an ankle and you're like, why is my 31 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 1: knee hurting? In my ankles hurt? You know what I mean? 32 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: And if you watch Patch my Homes in that game, 33 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: not only did we see the compromise mobility obviously, but 34 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: that's not just an ankle sprain in the traditional fashion 35 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: that should have let us know it was gonna be 36 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: Diet noticed there's a high ankle sprain. Why because he 37 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: couldn't even put weight on it. And then when he 38 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: did put weight on it, notice his gate, Notice his thride. 39 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: You know, are we run one to one to right 40 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 1: left right left? That changed to right right left left. 41 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 1: It was like one one, two to like he couldn't 42 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: run normally because he couldn't put pressure on it because 43 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: there were so many body parts that were hurt in 44 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 1: that moment. So when you think about like a high 45 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: ankle spraining things like that, think about them differently, Like 46 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: you know, in the NFL, and we used to hate this. 47 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: Some injuries just don't sound gangster enough, right, Like you 48 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: go up to coach, so, oh, man, like, look look 49 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: at my finger. You know I dislocated my finger. That's 50 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: on the borderline of canny play or not. Are you 51 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: a quarterback? No, well, then get your hands back out there. 52 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: Then what you're talking about? Your finger hurt? And you're like, dog, 53 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: I didn say my finger hurt. Coach, I said, it's dislocated. 54 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: That means it's not where it's supposed to be. You 55 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's supposed to be on Slawson, 56 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 1: it's on Crishaw. And coach like, I don't give a damn. 57 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: So I'm like I used to hate those kind of 58 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: injuries that fell beneath the threshold of making you think 59 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: I'm really hurt, that I'm really injured. You know, you 60 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: you get an ankle sprain. They're like, all right, what 61 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: degree or where high ankle sprain? Oh, all right, we know, 62 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: bets off. This dude is broke down. This dude is hurt. 63 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: So you know, it was amazing that he even came back, Like, 64 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 1: I wonder how his practice week is gonna look because 65 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: with a high ankle sprain, Oh, I'm gatorade, man, you better, 66 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 1: I'm standing on the side. A matter of fact, I'm 67 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: sitting on the sidelines passing out the Gatoray y'all come 68 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: to me. That's what I have to do with a 69 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: high ankle sprain, because there's no way you're gonna try 70 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: him out in practice to see how he's feeling, you know, 71 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: to get the juices flowing. None of that kind of stuff, 72 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: not at all. So it's all bad. When you think 73 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: about Patrick Mahomes in terms of what his forecast, maybe 74 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: think about it like, no matter if he plays, he's 75 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: not gonna have the same adrenaline start that he had 76 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: in the game last week. And when you start with adrenaline, 77 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: oh you can rod that thing all the way up 78 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: all the way out. But then you get to the crib, 79 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: you know you already did your treatment at the facility. 80 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,799 Speaker 1: You get to the crib and what's his wife named, Brittany. 81 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: Brittany's like, maybe you need anything, you know, some chicken 82 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: noodle soup. You know, I got one of them commercials. Uh, 83 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: what do you need anything? Maybe? Yes, from subway. You 84 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: only got one of them commercials. He just ordered everything 85 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: he got free round house, right, and then finally you 86 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: just say, yeah, babe, you know, I'm just tired. You know, 87 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,279 Speaker 1: I'm glad we wont I'm glad I came back and 88 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: did some things. I'm glad Chad Henny, Uh, such a 89 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: great capable backup. I'm glad.

As soon as you wake up, 106 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: you do that diagnostic check, you know, and you try 107 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: to not go to the part that really hurts first. 108 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: You don't want to do that first because that's gonna 109 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: be some bad news probably, So you just try to 110 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: start with the good news. Oh man, okay, oh feel good? 111 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: All right, shoulders great, alright, arms a little cut here, 112 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: scratch here, dam I ain't know I was bleeding over here, 113 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: sheets already, you know whatever? All right, hip cool. Now, 114 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: let me get out of bed, let me turn out 115 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: of bed. And then you put the good leg down first, right, come, 116 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: I gotta get your baseline. You gotta make sure, all right, 117 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: I know what I'm looking for. I'm looking for that feeling. 118 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 1: And then you put that compromise leg down, that bad boy, 119 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 1: take that take that take that you put them on ground. 120 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: And I'm telling y'all. This is what happens when you 121 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: put on the ground. You're like, huh what And now 122 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: now you only got your big toe really on the ground, 123 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: and just the nail, like the nail of the big 124 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: toe is touching the ground. The rest of you, man, please, 125 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 1: I ain't thinking about putting weight on this food. So 126 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 1: then you're like, all right, let me foot down the 127 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: ball of my foot, Like, damn, what the hell is 128 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: going on?

I 130 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 1: out to be right, gotta figure this out. So then 131 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you start going through your own rehab, 132 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: and this probably hurts our rehab more than helps it. 133 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: We try all the time to figure out how we're 134 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: feeling when it's like days away, a week away. Who cares. 135 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: It's like, that's not the test. But this is the 136 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: process of building your confidence back. And that's the other 137 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: side of every injury. Most people don't think about it. 138 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: They only think about the physical aspect. Yeah, are you okay? 139 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: How's your leg? All right? X rays negative, m R 140 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: R negative. Oh guess what else is negative? My damn brain? 141 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: My confidence? I am negative on myself. I am Donald 142 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: down here right now, and Brittany is trying not to 143 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: be Debbie Downer, so she's trying to pick up his spirits. 144 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 1: Oh baby, it's okay, you know. And then the homies 145 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: come through or whoever he has personal security, somebody, you know, 146 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: shoulder to lean on while you gotta hop hop hop. 147 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: You're hopping everywhere hot, trying to just go to the bathroom, 148 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: hop hop, trying to go to the kitchen, and it's 149 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 1: just like, damn, you're about to play football in a week. 150 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you want to know why I haven't given 151 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: y'all the magic ingredient that's necessary to do this. Yeah, 152 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: it's not a magic peel. It's a needle and it's 153 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: longer than your arm. And this needle is something that 154 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: I'm sure Patrick Mahomes took at a halftime after he 155 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: got that X ray that was negative and they said, Okay, 156 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: nothing's broken. Uh, your spirits maybe, but you need to 157 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: get your butt back out there. And I got just 158 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: the trick in back room, like, yeah, buddy, right here 159 00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: started looking like Pookie and New Jack City, hitting it, 160 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: hitting that ankle, hitting it, hit it. But this is 161 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: the problem y'all don't know how much this hurts. Let 162 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: me tell you how much it hurt. Because I had 163 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: my foot get a shot every single week during mouth 164 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: to thousand in one season with the San Diego Chargers. 165 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: I broke my foot, had a Jones fracture, has surgery, 166 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: came back, had a pin in my foot.

And to play one, I 169 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: had to take this needle. But this is I had 170 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: to take toward all shots, other stuff, pills, but the needle, 171 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: the long arm of the long needle. This boy so long, 172 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,959 Speaker 1: but this is the worst part. They had to find 173 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: where it hurts most. And when they found where it 174 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: hurts most, they will not only find that spot. So 175 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: imagine this right here. Bulls are they say they touch it? 176 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: They say it right there right there.

You're like, oh, that hurts, 184 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: that hurts, But that ain't it. That ain't the epicenter. 185 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 1: They ain't the bull's eye. And then finally bound, they're like, 186 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: all right, we found it, and they're like, all right, 187 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: put that talent you about bro do what you gotta do, 188 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: but just don't be screaming like no bit. And then 189 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 1: all of a sudden and it this, this, this, this, 190 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: and you're I mean, it's scruciating, so scruciate.

Ain't it crazy? 193 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: Ain't it? Jay? Oh Man? All of a sudden, you 194 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: don't have like instant like great feelings, You don't instantly 195 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: just pop up, and all of a sudden you feel 196 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: like that. And then no, you don't feel healed immediately, 197 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: but mentally you feel better because one, they're not stabbing 198 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: you with that, you know, in the pain full place. 199 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,320 Speaker 1: But to the placebo effect, you just start thinking, whatever 200 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: they just did to me, whatever nine syllable word that 201 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: they're injected me with with a liquid I don't know, 202 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 1: commarcuative wack and Boso Mosca seen. Guess what, it should 203 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: work and the adrenaline is still pumping and you want 204 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: it so bad. Then you go back out there and 205 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: ball in the second half. But trust me, that second 206 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 1: half balling, it's not gonna be the same. Patrick Mahomes, 207 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: you're gonna see going next week he's gonna have to 208 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: find that place again because they're adrenaline won't be pumping. 209 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: You can go out there and say, yeah, oh yeah, 210 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 1: I'm hyped for pregame, but guess what, in this pre game, 211 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 1: you're not running around, flying around. Remember last pregame you work, 212 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: This one's gonna be compromised, this one's gonna be hindered. 213 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: So it's not gonna be the same adrenaline level. No 214 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: matter how you try to psych yourself up, it's gonna 215 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: feel different. Then you go out there and hopefully you 216 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 1: can play. I ain't say ball, I said play, stay alive, 217 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: stay healthy.

Let's 224 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: just keep journeying around the NFL playoffs, and y'all know me. 225 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: My heartache, my heartbreak goes to all my teams that lost, 226 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: all my teams that lost.

Then all of a sudden, who is 231 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 1: it the cow It was Jacksonville. Then it was Buffalo. 232 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: Come on, you got him at home in the snow, 233 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: like if you have to draw up anything for the 234 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: Buffalo Bills to have a an advantage like beyond home 235 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: field advantage, like next level, like oh man, we had 236 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: these dudes just where we wanted them. It was those 237 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 1: conditions snow in Buffalo Orchard Park, gang and we couldn't 238 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: do anything. Then finally y'all saw Dallas Cowboys. That was 239 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: a good game, though I can't say nothing about that. 240 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: It's just their history is obviously preceding them in their 241 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: reputation and you're like, oh, here we go again. But 242 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: San Francoda dog like start listing them names name playing 243 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: no games and Shadahanka coach. So um, you look around 244 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: the entire NFL landscape right now, it's gonna be fun 245 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 1: to see Cincinnati did their thing. Cincinnati versus k Cy. 246 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: I'm predicting right now Casey is gonna win that. Uh. 247 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:59,719 Speaker 1: Then you got forty Niners in Philly. Godly, I've been 248 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: betting against Philly this whole year now because I'm not 249 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 1: a believer or a hater. I'm just like, how far 250 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: are they gonna go in this one year surge? Mhmm. 251 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: Cincinatti made it all the way to the super Bowl. 252 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: It's Philly gonna do that? I don't think so, I 253 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 1: think forty nine. So I say forty Niners going out 254 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 1: there and Kansas City, we're gonna see that. Ain't that 255 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: a rematch? Yes? It is from what a couple of 256 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: years ago or something like that. So it's gonna be 257 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: fun to watch. These NFL playoffs has been amazing to 258 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: this point. I mean, NFL just don't stop. They don't 259 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: stop putting it out there in terms of premium product 260 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: and being the best. Oh love, but I thought Buffalo 261 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: we played their best one. Look at me. Heart ache 262 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: is still going. Tomorrow Hamlin was in the building, y'all. 263 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: He got released from the hospital nine days after he 264 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: flatlined once or sometimes you hear reports twice. He died twice, 265 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: and there's conversations with him playing again, ain't that crazy? 266 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: And he was in the building, and say, there's a 267 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: couple of things I want to point out about Tomorrow 268 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: Hamling in this situation because it's time now to talk 269 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: about it fully because we know he's okay, right, And 270 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 1: and you know everyone ate up skipped Bayliss for his tweet, 271 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: and everybody was just going back and forth taking shots 272 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: at people who weren't being sensitive. I don't think it 273 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: was a sensitivity issue as much as there were line 274 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: items that needed to be addressed on top of the 275 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: emotional display we all had for hoping and praying for 276 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: his return.

And if y'all listen 377 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 1: to this podcast long enough, y'all gonna hear me talk 378 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 1: about outcasts a lot. Not only are they my favorite 379 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 1: group ever, but I think they just symbolize so much 380 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: for us to learn from and you can grow from. 381 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: So Outcast moment. Outcast moment was this their first album, 382 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: talking about girls, talking about pamp and talk about hanging 383 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: and talking about shooting, talking about smoking weed, all of 384 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 1: that same old, same old rap one o one stuff. Right, 385 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,439 Speaker 1: I'm a rapper, so I say this, your skills is 386 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: what separates you. But I'm saying the same thing as 387 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: everybody else. Okay, okay, most people at least then that 388 00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: Switches album too. They start going to read how it 389 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: started out of this, you know, like the extraterrestrial stuff 390 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: start happening. And I think ed should have listened to 391 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: those two albums because there's a sequence to this. If 392 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: ed Ree would have listened to those two albums, he 393 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: would have known. Okay, I'm going to hbc U. I'm 394 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: not gonna be able to change these things on day 395 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: one or from the outside. So before you got your job, 396 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 1: technically you're still an outsider. And more importantly, I know 397 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: you got your name and your big dog. Um, you 398 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: gotta get in there and get a list, a laundry 399 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 1: list of the issues. Then find out who's connected to 400 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: the issues, so then you can do your proper homework 401 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: which will allow you to know how to navigate in 402 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 1: this landscape, because everybody there ain't with you. You know 403 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 1: what they say, all all skin folks ain't kin folks. 404 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: You know, like everybody got their title, but everybody ain't 405 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 1: there to serve the greater good. Some people just catching 406 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: them checks. And you gotta know who on your side 407 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: who's not. And the public is not on your side. 408 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: Des fight us supporting you because we can't have influence. 409 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,359 Speaker 1: Our influence only comes when you are actually on the inside, 410 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: then we can attach to you. But having a million 411 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 1: people on Instagram lives saying yeah and giving you thumbs 412 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: up and hearts emojis, and you're on the outside with us, Man, 413 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 1: wait a minute, wait a minute, like ray J, like, 414 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: wait a minute, just get in there, figure it all out, 415 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 1: then you do your thing. I was kind of caught 416 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: off guard. I was like it it felt like self 417 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: sabotage almost like it probably And one of them days 418 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: driving to work, we're like, man, hell no, Christian broke down, 419 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: like and people gotta understand, like stop stop all this 420 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: rooting interests getting in the way of your intelligence. You know, 421 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: You're intelligence has to be first. Stop all this like 422 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: everybody wants HBCU to do well. Look be real, I 423 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: want everything to do well, damn it. But that ain't 424 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: how capitalism works, and that's certainly not how the world 425 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: at large works. So now we gotta start figuring out 426 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: who's gonna work and who's gonna do well who's not. 427 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: And guess what if you don't have the proper resources, 428 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: proper infrastructure, and people don't think highly of its students 429 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: came out and was like, yo, Ed Reid was right. 430 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 1: He just said it, probably too early and too loud, 431 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: but he was right. This place, man, these places a mess. 432 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: But Ed Reid gotta know how to play that. Like 433 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: you know, you're the conductor of the symphony. You gotta 434 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: know which instruments to go at what times to make 435 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: it sound so sweet. So in this situation, I just 436 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: didn't see that. And now it's kind of a disservice 437 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: to Ed Reid, dis service to the HBCU and the opportunity. 438 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: But calling like you see it, HBCUs are not on 439 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: the same level as power fives or this new term. 440 00:24:55,480 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 1: I keep hearing what p w ies I'll s where 441 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,360 Speaker 1: I just heard about that two weeks ago.

Byron is gonna be fine 464 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: because he had three great years as a coordinator working 465 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 1: with Tom Brady when everyone thought Tom Brady was washed. 466 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 1: Don't forget tom Brady coming there wasn't like all good. 467 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,680 Speaker 1: And then you know this year happened where they did 468 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: look bad on offense, stagnant. But I could blame a 469 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: lot of other things other than just the play calling. 470 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: I could say new head coach Ty Bows, Hey man, 471 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,719 Speaker 1: all that looking like, hey, what's going on now here?

Well, maybe you need to lose even 485 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: that weight, like all the time ain't an excuse, like 486 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: you know you ever talking to somebody and stuff so 487 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 1: all messed up and they're like, just the way it is, 488 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: Well they changed the way it is, Like, oh, you 489 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: think I'm just gonna stop because you say something that 490 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 1: sounds smart and big as like running back, you need 491 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:34,959 Speaker 1: to lose a couple of pounds. Maybe I don't know. 492 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: Buying commitment is what I'm getting to Tom Brady obviously 493 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 1: going through the divorce at the time. Now divorce, M 494 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 1: we gotta talk about Tom Brady. Who in the hell 495 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: miss is eleven days uh of training camp? I mean, 496 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 1: like seriously, outside of look I'm holding out, which I 497 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: guess gave him some cover. This is my hold outlook 498 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 1: because look, eleven days missed for a holdout, eleven days 499 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: miss because I'm about to get divorced. What's the difference, coaches? 500 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 1: Eleven days miss? I get that part. What I don't 501 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 1: get is, damn, that's Tom Brady doing that? Like can't 502 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: we meet with the mediator after practice. Can't the mediator 503 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 1: come to me? I'm Tom Brady. Oh man, I think 504 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: that was just a horrible tone to set for this team. 505 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: Like you always gotta have a tone setter. Like in 506 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 1: any game kick off, somebody got run down there and 507 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: bust them in the mouth, so everybody else know we're 508 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 1: playing football today. And that's the same thing when you 509 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 1: start off a new season, especially Tom Brady. I don't 510 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: care if the team's veteran or not. I don't care 511 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: if they want a championship with you are not. They're 512 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: always reading the best player in the room. That's why 513 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant went so hard. That's why Michael Jordan went 514 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: so hard. Tom Brady, you gotta stay that hard, right, 515 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: can't be the guy be like you know what, guys, 516 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: I love football to death. I know everyone's talking about 517 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: when I'm gonna retire, but right now, let me just 518 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: uh take a little retirement light moment and take eleven 519 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: days off and go handle this business. Um. Look, everything 520 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 1: has a cost, and that was the cost. Like I 521 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: think this team really suffered from just total buying a 522 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: lot of shifts. New head coach Brady got his issues. 523 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 1: Guys are like yo, what we're gonna do with this team, 524 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: and we saw what happened with this team, and so 525 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 1: Byron left Ridges on the outside. And it kind of 526 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: reminds me of y'all don't know my family dynamic. My 527 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 1: twenty three year old daughter who's at Columbia Grad School, 528 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: respect monk monk Um, her stepfather, because my baby mama, 529 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: which is her mama, which is his wife, who is 530 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: Anthony Poindexter, who's a defensive coordinator at Penn State UM. 531 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: But I got insight into the coaches life through him 532 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: um somewhat and just watching how how volatile it is 533 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: at times, like you know, the upward mobility and then 534 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:52,520 Speaker 1: rare security, but certainly downward spiral, Like that's what happens 535 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: with coaches, Like it's almost like they go up and 536 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: they go down. They will never just stay. Typically when 537 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 1: you're talking about especially the coordinator position, like everyone's jockeying, right, 538 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: So if you do well somewhere, can I do well 539 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 1: at a bigger school? Can I do well on a 540 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: better team? Can I do well in a better situation? 541 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: Can I do well and get paid more? Like everything 542 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: when you're doing well, you're always navigating. But it also 543 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: happens on the flip like, bro, you know, like you're 544 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: not doing so well. So also you find yourself get 545 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: paid less, going to smaller schools, taking smaller roles. The 546 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: head coach becomes the coordinator, coordinator becomes an assistant coach, 547 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: defensive back coach, etcetera. And just watching Anthony over the years, 548 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: and he's doing great at Penn State because they just 549 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 1: won the Rose Bowls, so they're getting there. They're they're 550 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: crawling at a top ten school in the country. It's 551 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: just like crazy because they moved around Charlottesville and I 552 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: don't forget, uh is that Indiana? Yeah, they were perdue. Yeah. 553 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 1: Then they go to Penn State and it's like you 554 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: gotta you got kids, and you gotta families. You got 555 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: a wife. It's like God day. So man, next time 556 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: y'all screamed get rid of that coach, which I do 557 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: is well, I'm not blaming you all. I'm just saying, 558 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: know what you're screaming, you're also screaming loud because I 559 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,719 Speaker 1: dude about to be out of there. He's gonna be 560 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: far gone. Speaking of far gone, we gotta talk this story. 561 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: Almost feel like I was saving this story Shannon Sharp 562 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: about the fight at the Lakers game. All right, let's 563 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: do it. Let's do it. We're not binary on this 564 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:31,800 Speaker 1: podcast or in my life. You know my mentality. I 565 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: don't pick sides, but I do play sports. So let's 566 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: go team UNC, Team UNC Shannon versus Team Memphis, team Grizzlies, 567 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: Right T Grizzlies. Let's see. God, this one has me 568 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: all over the place. M m m. My first reaction was, 569 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: Damn Shannon really getting into a lot of stuff of late, 570 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: and I've been the one on the other side saying, now, 571 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 1: this ain't calculated, This ain't all premeditated. This is not false, 572 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: this is authentic. But I'm like, this pattern is starting 573 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: to make me think, let me look at the other side, 574 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: what y'all were saying about Shannon and them doing this? 575 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: So this one actually was premeditated? Why because Shannon has 576 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: been talking on the show Undisputed about Memphis and the 577 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: Grizzlies talking too much and having to accomplished anything. One 578 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: thing I do hate. Now, I'm not a champion, so 579 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: it's it's gonna serve me well. They hate it. It's 580 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: when people say, oh, they're popping off and got nothing 581 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: to show for it, And I'm like, what's your man? 582 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: I got nothing show for it? Like if you're John Moran, 583 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,239 Speaker 1: You're like, yeah, I got something to show for it. 584 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 1: Would y'all pull this stunt on Barry Sanders, Oh, he 585 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't pop off, He wouldn't pop off, but he even 586 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: got nothing to show for it, except he Barry Sanders, Oh, 587 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 1: he ain't got nothing to show for it. Would y'all 588 00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: pull this on Charles Barkley. He ain't got nothing to 589 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:54,479 Speaker 1: show for he was Charles Barkley, y'all do y'all understand 590 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 1: what this is like? So I always get lost in like, YO, 591 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: be careful saying the team hasn't done anything, because I 592 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 1: doesn't mean every player on that team hasn't done something. 593 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,600 Speaker 1: Good Lord, the trajectory of job I ran right now, 594 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: stop playing with me. He looked like he might be 595 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 1: Alan Irison plus right, he might like pass Ai in 596 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: terms of wherever you regard him and keep climbing. So 597 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 1: I don't like that. I also don't like that all 598 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: of this is happening. And you know, I see you 599 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: on the sideline and your Shannon and whatever started it. 600 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: You know, the reports is Lebron scored on on. Dude, 601 00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: I forget dude name, what's his name? U uh Brooks? Right, 602 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 1: yeah Brooks, Um, Dylan Brooks. Look at me. I ain't 603 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: lost it all. Yeah, y'all always trying to say ct 604 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: not me, no, not me, but I am struggling. Um, 605 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: so yeah, you look at it and dealing Brooks get 606 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: scored on and he says fuck you, and Shannon like, well, 607 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: I mean, Shannon just immediately went into Hall of Famer 608 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: for or football player broadcaster on the side like what 609 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 1: athletes to athletes? Bro, dude, bring it over here, bring 610 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: it over here. And I felt that. I was like, 611 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: there's a part of me that supports that. I'm like, 612 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: and somebody talking trash. Yeah, but then I was like, 613 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,319 Speaker 1: why are you talking trash? And the dude like that 614 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: you ain't playing, Like Shandon played enough games. Hall of 615 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,240 Speaker 1: Fame asks to know that when the fans barking and stuff, 616 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: you ain't about to go up to the stands and 617 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 1: fight the fans. Are you? Are you about to? You're 618 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 1: about to go to third row? But what's up? What? What? No? 619 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: You're not? So then I'm like, well, then the shoes 620 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: on the other foot, you can talk trash to him, 621 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: but this whole like bring it on, I'm like, what 622 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: do you do that at? And you know better because 623 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: you've been on that side, like Dylan Brooks before, So 624 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: I was like, this is kind of weird. It's a pattern. 625 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,280 Speaker 1: This is premeditated because you've been talking about this team. 626 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: You make sure you court side for this game, and 627 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 1: you go in, Okay, now I'm trying to root for 628 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 1: Shannon in this moment.

That was going down, and John 655 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,479 Speaker 1: Moran dad wasn't that Team Morant. Team Moran looked younger 656 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: than John morand like I think John older than his daddy. 657 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: Remember that, you remember, don't be a minister's South Center 658 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: while drinking your juice in the hood.

And I'm coming off as a hater because 679 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,760 Speaker 1: I actually like the moment, like it's weird. I love 680 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 1: you know, like everybody, you know, no one roots for 681 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,880 Speaker 1: a car crash, no one roots for watching the train clide. 682 00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: But we all watched, right, So I watched that thousands 683 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: of times.

On the sideline you imagine Shannon 687 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 1: a flagrant too. But my thing was, but how do 688 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 1: we get here? We got here because you wanted to 689 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 1: be there on that court side to prop up Lebron, 690 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 1: to instigate some stuff and let them boys know you 691 00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:40,959 Speaker 1: ain't backing down right, Okay, but that could be enough. 692 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,400 Speaker 1: That's good, you did your part, But then want to 693 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 1: fight them. Goes back to them earlier episodes, like how 694 00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:51,480 Speaker 1: much of this is really contrived? And how much of 695 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: this is just yo? This is what it is? Because 696 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: these shows they already acting up on the show. And 697 00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,760 Speaker 1: I'm like, check Skip if you're gonna check Dylan Brooks, 698 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,759 Speaker 1: but that's your boy, but checking respectfully both of them, 699 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 1: if you're gonna do it. But these shows is like 700 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 1: bleeding out and it's getting the circus is growing like 701 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 1: it's traveling it's a traveling circuits. We're going to games 702 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,879 Speaker 1: now and actually getting into it with players. And if 703 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,240 Speaker 1: that was a normal fan. And when I say normal, 704 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,200 Speaker 1: I just mean you're not famous, because we're all on 705 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 1: the same level. But I mean you ain't famous. You 706 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:27,799 Speaker 1: ain't and you pull that stuff. Can't be your lover. 707 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: I don't think you're being crypto dot com arena, which 708 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 1: is a dumb name. Um. Ever again, like you escorted 709 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 1: home and stay home house arrests, never come to a 710 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 1: game again. So really interesting when I saw that, and 711 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,320 Speaker 1: then obviously you see the reactions and people all to 712 00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:52,719 Speaker 1: know reacting whitlocked my dog reacting. Well, I said this 713 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,360 Speaker 1: something would fame does to you? Basically, here's somethingtion was like, 714 00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: fames a drug. I ask y'all, it's fame of drug. 715 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 1: Half of y'all, like Foo ain't famous, So I don't 716 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:12,640 Speaker 1: know what it is. Um, fame is something. It is intoxicating. 717 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 1: It must be a drug. It must be because it 718 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: doesn't always change your behavior towards a negative and make 719 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 1: you just start stunting too much and flossing too much. 720 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 1: But what fame does is makes you conscious of yourself 721 00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:31,040 Speaker 1: way more than you were when you weren't famous. So 722 00:40:31,080 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 1: if I go to the mall and I'm not famous, 723 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 1: I don't call myself famous, but I do get recognized 724 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,640 Speaker 1: all the time. So I am famous light You know, 725 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 1: I'm a c D list somebody. I ain't an neff 726 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 1: list forget y'all, but I'm a CEE D list something right. 727 00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 1: People know me and I go to the mall and 728 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 1: it's so weird. I'll be walking around the mall and 729 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: I see a group of kids or group of young 730 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:57,479 Speaker 1: adults like my demographic, like I know they like ball 731 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 1: or they're gonna come talk to me, and it readily 732 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 1: I get my defenses up or my persona comes out, 733 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: or I'm just thinking like they're about to come to me. 734 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 1: Versus when I wasn't famous. When I was seventeen walking 735 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 1: through Fox Hill, small Man, I didn't think about nobody 736 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,839 Speaker 1: except pretty girls. I was looking for them. And then 737 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 1: now it flipped like I'm looking for people who are 738 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: looking for me. Weird, right, that's fame. So win Locke 739 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: basically was saying that Shannon's in some kind of like 740 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,919 Speaker 1: faint loop right now, like really trying to pop off. 741 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 1: And I thought that was interesting because with the traveling 742 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 1: circus with Now what we say on air is gonna 743 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 1: come out like I love my Clippers, Clips City Chip 744 00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: City all day, but at the same time, I don't 745 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 1: ride and cross lines and violation and didn't stand on 746 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 1: it like yeah, that's right. I don't back down to nobody. 747 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: But it's like, you may not back down, but why 748 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: did you stand up? Why do you have to do 749 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,879 Speaker 1: all that? It reminds me of the time I got 750 00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 1: kicked out of a Lakers game because I'm a Clippers fan. Now, 751 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 1: the reason I got kicked out of the Lakers game 752 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: is because the Lakers actually gave me tickets. Yep, they 753 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:13,319 Speaker 1: gave me courtside like row a I guess they call it. 754 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 1: So court side is obviously your feet are on the wood. 755 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: Nike's on the wood, but I was that roll behind him. See, 756 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: this is gonna help you out with this story to 757 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 1: let you know why I acted up. I ain't got 758 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: a course. I'd let me stop, but no, great seats 759 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 1: come on, I'm a second roll of the whole damn 760 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 1: arena stop playing and the free Yeah. Because I was 761 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 1: doing radio with Max ESPN Radio, so Max didn't like 762 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: to hang out too tough. He like to just go 763 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: straight home to the crib. I lived at the Rich 764 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,440 Speaker 1: Carlton at that time. Um so, I used to live 765 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: right across streets. So yeah, I used to hang a 766 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 1: little more because I was right across the street. Work 767 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 1: was downstairs. Uh, Staples Center at the time was across 768 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: the street. Nothing to me, right anyway, give me tickets. 769 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: I forget who I go with. That's a damn shame. 770 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 1: I probably went by myself. Um So, I'm in there 771 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:08,200 Speaker 1: and I got on a Clippers jacket. Strike one, not 772 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 1: because you can't. It's a Clippers Lakers game, right, but 773 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,560 Speaker 1: it's Lakers seats. But I'm like, they do know I'm 774 00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: a Clippers fan, and that's why they gave me the seats. 775 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:18,839 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, they're trying to convert me. Boy, they don't 776 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 1: know me. They don't know how our role. If they're 777 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: trying to convert me, that's happening. So I'm stubborn, y'all. 778 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 1: I'm stubborn. So I'm sitting there and I remember, and 779 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 1: you can still see this guy. He goes to the 780 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,799 Speaker 1: games all the time. He looks like like a mini 781 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 1: Steven Adams, kind of like you'll see him. Um, he's 782 00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:39,479 Speaker 1: like mid behind maybe scorers table, like between the bench 783 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,080 Speaker 1: and something. But basically he mini Steven Adams and he 784 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:45,359 Speaker 1: always got signs and stuff.

So then he's like, well, you know, we 837 00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 1: got some emails from the Lakers and they were really 838 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,760 Speaker 1: disturbed saying how you were really supportive of the Clippers. 839 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,080 Speaker 1: I'm a Clippers fan and they were like, yeah, but 840 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 1: they gave you the tickets and I don't know, maybe 841 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 1: under a false impression or something that either you wouldn't 842 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: be that boisterous or rooting for your team, or you know, 843 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,800 Speaker 1: just a little more. I don't think he said respect 844 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,040 Speaker 1: for the Lakers, but he was like, just understand and 845 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 1: that it was a Lakers game, and those are Lakers 846 00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 1: tickets given to you by the Lakers.

But people people say, no, 870 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: beef is like you trying to pull the strap out. 871 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, no, y'all know me.

On Van Layton on Higher Learning Van Laydon's 898 00:49:52,480 --> 00:49:56,160 Speaker 1: podcast UM with his co host and oh man, she 899 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 1: gonna hate me. I've been hitting the head. I do 900 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 1: not know her name and I can google it, but 901 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,000 Speaker 1: this is a podcast UM. But she she was there 902 00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:05,919 Speaker 1: as well, she was on the view, so she big time. 903 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: Excuse me, she's like, you don't know what I mean. Anyway, 904 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 1: they went at it. Van came in there loaded like 905 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 1: Shannon was loaded on the Memphis Grizzlies, Like, yeah, I Cho, Um, 906 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,239 Speaker 1: I want all the smoke. I've been talking about you, 907 00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 1: not in glowing fashion when you're not here. You're here now, 908 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:29,600 Speaker 1: let me keep that same energy and talk about you 909 00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: the same way. So it starts off immediately like it's 910 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 1: fascinating to me because I know both people like I've 911 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 1: been up both of those guys's events and houses like 912 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 1: I know them right, They've been to my functions, been 913 00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 1: in my career, like family, right, and I'm like, damn, 914 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun. It's fascinating, right. And immediately they 915 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,799 Speaker 1: asked I Cho about what I've said about a Cho, 916 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:55,759 Speaker 1: and I cho he didn't take the high road. That's 917 00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,600 Speaker 1: just what Acho's response was. Now, if y'all want us 918 00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:00,839 Speaker 1: to sully each other, I'm sure Cho has some things 919 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 1: about me he doesn't like. He's told me some things 920 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: before and I got my things right, but he man, 921 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:09,239 Speaker 1: I do made me feel good. He was like, man, 922 00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 1: Marcelis is a winner dog. He gonna win or whatever 923 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:14,280 Speaker 1: he wants to do. But it was just funny because 924 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,480 Speaker 1: that was the first place they started, and I Cho 925 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 1: didn't know everything I was thinking and going through DUB, 926 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:23,160 Speaker 1: like I didn't know everything he was thinking and going 927 00:51:23,200 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: through Dub. But we obviously know some of the things 928 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 1: and we expressed that and he expressed that. But that 929 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 1: was just that leading question that I usually hate, but 930 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: since it was about me, I liked it. But this 931 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,839 Speaker 1: time it was funny because I choked took the high road, 932 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 1: no no drama so far, but then they start talking 933 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 1: about them uncomfortable conversations with a black man, and he 934 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: got it got really and real because Van is the 935 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,439 Speaker 1: type that has receipts like Van has one of those 936 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 1: hell of a good recalls. I Cho does as well, 937 00:51:56,800 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 1: but I chowed will recall the entire incident. But I 938 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:04,080 Speaker 1: do only want to talk about the good things because 939 00:52:04,120 --> 00:52:06,799 Speaker 1: he's raised that way, because he's got that kind of 940 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 1: mindset and spirit, and that's good. But that ain't there 941 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 1: everybody man like, Look, we're gonna go through the good 942 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,879 Speaker 1: and the bad. Van and I did his podcast about 943 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick years ago in the heat of that, and 944 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:23,799 Speaker 1: we we went at it and then we broke Brad 945 00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: so him after it like no issue. I just don't 946 00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 1: think that I show and Van are gonna break bread. 947 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 1: After this start was I almost he didn't quit. I 948 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:35,799 Speaker 1: was like, this is a waste of my time, and 949 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:39,640 Speaker 1: I quote, this is a waste of my time. Ato 950 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 1: felt ambushed. Acho felt like, dog, why you got all 951 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 1: these receipts about stuff you don't like about me, but 952 00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,319 Speaker 1: then invite me on here just to read me my 953 00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 1: rights and reprimand me. But that's the call of duty. 954 00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:55,919 Speaker 1: One thing I gotta say is like, I would never 955 00:52:55,960 --> 00:53:01,479 Speaker 1: go on anyone's podcast, TV show, whatever and then say 956 00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: what they can and can't ask if I didn't already 957 00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 1: agree on that. And frankly, I'm an open book. I'm 958 00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:08,800 Speaker 1: an open book. But some of these guys got bigger brands, 959 00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,319 Speaker 1: and I want to protect their brands. Whether they're bigger 960 00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 1: or not. They just don't want to go some places. 961 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: I'll go anywhere with you whatever. But that's just me. 962 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,959 Speaker 1: I chow. It was like, dude, what's this? And Van 963 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 1: was going in all right, here's my issue with the 964 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: comfortable conversations with a black man. I cho said it. 965 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:32,560 Speaker 1: Acho was first generation Nigerian American. Van said it, but 966 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,759 Speaker 1: he kind of danced a little bit. He apologized a 967 00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:38,319 Speaker 1: lot of times. I chow because that's one thing Van 968 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 1: has a big heart to No matter how gangster Van gets, 969 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,839 Speaker 1: he still cares. So his apologies, we're trying to give 970 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,799 Speaker 1: him a mattress, like I don't take this like I 971 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: hate you. I just hate what you said, and usually 972 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,359 Speaker 1: you leave it there. But Van has a big heart 973 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:54,879 Speaker 1: and thinks I chow. It was coming from the right place. 974 00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 1: So he kept apologizing, but they kept slicing them, like 975 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:02,440 Speaker 1: what is going on here? Here's the thing. My only 976 00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 1: issue because I really didn't watch him. I watch your nose. 977 00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:07,759 Speaker 1: I ain't watch them like he ain't watching this, you 978 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:09,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean? He ain't watching my podcast. I 979 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:12,760 Speaker 1: ain't watching this. I did not. I watched clips. Come on, y'all, 980 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,400 Speaker 1: I got four kids. Stop playing um. And I'm a 981 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,839 Speaker 1: black man. I don't need to have any conversations about 982 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:20,440 Speaker 1: being me, Like I'll talk to you all about life, 983 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:22,839 Speaker 1: but I'm a black man. I get it. I choke 984 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:27,360 Speaker 1: being a Nigerian American first generation I couldn't talk to 985 00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,919 Speaker 1: what black men like me knew and understood and had 986 00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:35,560 Speaker 1: to experience growing up. Simple as that, I hate when 987 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:38,480 Speaker 1: people get mad at that, like like, oh, your question 988 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: of his blackness. No, I'm saying this blackness is different. 989 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:46,560 Speaker 1: I'm not saying he ain't black, which we're gonna talk about. Um, 990 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:48,239 Speaker 1: if he called himself black, I don't even know if 991 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,560 Speaker 1: he called himself black, and he did on that show, 992 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 1: and I was like, why are we having uncomfortable conversation 993 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,480 Speaker 1: with a black man? But then you're not talking to 994 00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 1: the black man as we know in America, I'm a 995 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:02,040 Speaker 1: black man. People call me African American and used to 996 00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:05,759 Speaker 1: herd negro. I'm so old. I heard negro. I didn't 997 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 1: like Negro. I just was like that just you know, 998 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,480 Speaker 1: that was cold and that Spanish and that's black. And 999 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 1: I was like, wait, wait, sack, I ain't like negro. 1000 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:15,320 Speaker 1: Just sounded weird, sound too close to the N word. 1001 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 1: I was like, y'all just trying to change a couple 1002 00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:19,359 Speaker 1: of letters. Ain't fooling me. So I didn't like being 1003 00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:22,960 Speaker 1: called negro, but whatever, I always was black and then 1004 00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:24,839 Speaker 1: with African American now, but I'm like, I ain't been 1005 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:28,319 Speaker 1: in Africa like I got. I got white friends at 1006 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,600 Speaker 1: school with my kids that just got back from Africa 1007 00:55:32,320 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 1: and my forty eight year old black self is not 1008 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:40,399 Speaker 1: has not been to Africa ever, and being real, I'm 1009 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: not on a mission to go. Like I don't like traveling. 1010 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to. I had to go to Atlanta 1011 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. I didn't want to go 1012 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:48,280 Speaker 1: to Atlanta. You think I'm trying to go to Africa. 1013 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: People like, oh, you're missing out, came miss with you 1014 00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:55,000 Speaker 1: ain't never had right, So being serious, I've never been Africa, right, 1015 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:57,319 Speaker 1: But they called me African American always felt weird. I'm like, 1016 00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,719 Speaker 1: come on, y'all, miss me. But whatever, whatever you'll want 1017 00:55:59,719 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 1: to call me don't matter. It's all about what I 1018 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 1: listened to and pay attention to, not what y'all calling me. 1019 00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 1: But I'm a black man and I ain't the same. 1020 00:56:08,920 --> 00:56:11,440 Speaker 1: We ain't the same. Like I'm not telling about he 1021 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,960 Speaker 1: couldn't live in a black neighborhood in Dallas and he 1022 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:18,239 Speaker 1: couldn't he couldn't go to black church or yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, 1023 00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:21,399 Speaker 1: yea yeah yeah. But when you come home, who you're 1024 00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 1: talking to and then what culture are you talking in? 1025 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:29,439 Speaker 1: That's the difference. So I explained that he was like, dude, 1026 00:56:29,440 --> 00:56:35,319 Speaker 1: I don't have the generational curses and really the generation 1027 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:40,960 Speaker 1: of weight of slavery on them. The ain't o that. 1028 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:44,160 Speaker 1: So when I when I used to hear uncomfortable conversations 1029 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:45,759 Speaker 1: with a black man, I just always be like, but 1030 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 1: why why it should have been an uncomfortable conversation with 1031 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:52,239 Speaker 1: a Nigerian American, which is different. That's like me going 1032 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:56,120 Speaker 1: to Nigeria, setting up my locker room and saying uncomfortable 1033 00:56:56,160 --> 00:57:01,280 Speaker 1: conversations what an African American and I am sixty Nigerian 1034 00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:04,440 Speaker 1: and then breaking it down to them Nigerians how it 1035 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,759 Speaker 1: is to be Nigerian. They're looking at me like, bro, 1036 00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 1: I get your sixty one. I get that you're over 1037 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 1: here and Africa talking about it, and I get that 1038 00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:17,480 Speaker 1: you we have the same skin color. But Dol, you 1039 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 1: don't know these subtleties, these intricacies. You don't know the details. 1040 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: You didn't have to go through it. So I'm tired 1041 00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 1: of being defined by what other people think I am. 1042 00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 1: But you know where they get that audacity. The one 1043 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:40,480 Speaker 1: drop rule that that negative slave sustained definition of black people, 1044 00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:44,959 Speaker 1: which was white people back in those days did not 1045 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,640 Speaker 1: want to ounce some black in their blood in their 1046 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 1: blood lines. So one drop rule. If you've got one 1047 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 1: drop of black in your you're black. I don't think 1048 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 1: you've gotta be a genius to understand what that was. 1049 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 1: Back then, it made sense for the times and conditions. 1050 00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 1: Oh it was damning, it was hurtful, it was wrong, 1051 00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:10,520 Speaker 1: but that's what they said. They declared it that way. 1052 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:14,600 Speaker 1: But we are four hundred years removed, and we still 1053 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 1: have not gotten away from the one dropped rule. Like seriously, 1054 00:58:20,320 --> 00:58:26,760 Speaker 1: like that doesn't give us the freedom to go within, 1055 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:33,400 Speaker 1: go intra race, intra the black experience, African American experience. However, 1056 00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:36,520 Speaker 1: you want to determine and really give people their proper 1057 00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 1: do give things their proper respect. I get like envious 1058 00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:47,560 Speaker 1: when I hear someone say, oh, well are you white? No, 1059 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm French, Italian. What they got the they got designations, 1060 00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 1: they have subcategories that are fully respected. But then in 1061 00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:01,440 Speaker 1: the black culture, oh we all black. We give creole 1062 00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 1: a little love, like we got a little love of 1063 00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:05,840 Speaker 1: the creole. You can say you creole, al right, but 1064 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 1: then we don't go into all of our subtleties and details, 1065 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:14,160 Speaker 1: including what if you're Dominican, you know, what if you're Brazilian? 1066 00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:16,800 Speaker 1: Like it can go, right, it can go. But even 1067 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:20,800 Speaker 1: within black like I chose Nigerian American first generation I 1068 00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 1: met his parents. Trust me, they ain't my parents. They 1069 00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: don't think the same, they didn't do the same. It's 1070 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 1: not the same culture. But we're both black. We gotta 1071 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 1: get detailed in this so that one drop roule who 1072 00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:39,680 Speaker 1: because this is what got me in trouble. They say, 1073 00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 1: what Colin Kaepernick? They say, you question this blackness as 1074 00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 1: I ain't questioned his blackness. I say, our blackness is different. 1075 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: That's it. Because I don't believe in a one drop road, 1076 00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:53,200 Speaker 1: right And if I were mixed, like my wife is 1077 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:57,160 Speaker 1: black and white. Do you know how proud I would 1078 00:59:57,160 --> 01:00:00,120 Speaker 1: be to be black and how proud I would be 1079 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 1: to be white? Like y'all making me choose. I remember 1080 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 1: when they did that the Tiger Woods. They lit it 1081 01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:08,320 Speaker 1: ass up because Tiger wills trying to break it down 1082 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:13,920 Speaker 1: into every single element they don't want to hear and 1083 01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 1: lit Tiger Woods up. He's like, dog, I got pride 1084 01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:18,640 Speaker 1: and respect, and then he just jumped out. See this 1085 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:20,600 Speaker 1: is the difference between me and you, This differ between 1086 01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: me and everybody. They jump out the game because they're like, yo, 1087 01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 1: I am gonna get fatigued and having this conversation, right, 1088 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:30,560 Speaker 1: jay Z did it with Colin Karpertick. Jay Z s 1089 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:33,600 Speaker 1: focus my hand. At first, everybody came at back at him. 1090 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 1: Jay stopped talking about it, and he's like, all right, right, 1091 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:38,400 Speaker 1: I just I don't know what it is about me. 1092 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep talking about it because I know it's wrong. Right, 1093 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:46,440 Speaker 1: I'm not questioning your blackness. Just can we admit we're different? 1094 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Not are you? But yes 1095 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:53,640 Speaker 1: you are? But different? Ant So we gotta get out 1096 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 1: of that place and I'll do a lot more on 1097 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:59,640 Speaker 1: this because it's something that's really deep, really pervasive, that 1098 01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:03,360 Speaker 1: really hurts a lot of us in terms of that expression. 1099 01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 1: But anyway, getting back to Van, getting back to that interview, 1100 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,680 Speaker 1: that interview, WHOA, I'm trying to get this some some 1101 01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:14,000 Speaker 1: publicity because that thing was great. It was uncomfortable for 1102 01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,400 Speaker 1: It was uncomfortable for Van. It was a real uncomfortable 1103 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 1: conversation with a black man and a Nigerian American. I 1104 01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:30,040 Speaker 1: loved it. Now he did well. They were really coming 1105 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 1: at OUTO so hard and my dog. Other than the 1106 01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 1: fact that he wanted to kind of leave the interview. 1107 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:40,280 Speaker 1: But he didn't. He's just like, look, my publicist wants 1108 01:01:40,600 --> 01:01:43,200 Speaker 1: me to wants to know if I'm gonna stay or go. 1109 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:46,840 Speaker 1: I'm staying. But to bring that up is mean you're 1110 01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 1: thinking about maybe leaving. Right, You don't bring that up 1111 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:55,080 Speaker 1: in any good interview that you love. Um But too Dog, 1112 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,560 Speaker 1: this is what they want. This is what you should 1113 01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:01,040 Speaker 1: have wanted. Talk your talk, you know what I mean, Like, 1114 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 1: don't let him back you in the corner and be 1115 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:05,600 Speaker 1: like bullyball because that looked like it was. It was 1116 01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:08,919 Speaker 1: gas like you know what man look like? Oh look 1117 01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:13,880 Speaker 1: at look at old arrogant? Oh aggressive Van. I adn't 1118 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 1: like that part. Cho should have just spoke like dog, 1119 01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:19,000 Speaker 1: all right, you you want to smoke today, Let's smoke. 1120 01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:23,600 Speaker 1: Even though you don't smoke or drink. And Van Van 1121 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:26,640 Speaker 1: keeps receipts, so it's hard to argue against Van. The 1122 01:02:26,680 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: one thing you can argue against Van wid is like tone, 1123 01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:33,640 Speaker 1: you know, like Van, be nice, like I said that 1124 01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:35,880 Speaker 1: you get more with honey than vinegar, like, you know, 1125 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 1: like be nice. But I love all displays of people. Man, 1126 01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 1: I love that display. And they talked through it. I 1127 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:45,880 Speaker 1: Cho didn't leave they talked through it to me, I 1128 01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:50,080 Speaker 1: didn't the receipts and stuff. I didn't care like I. 1129 01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 1: Cho had a platform where Van said it was too 1130 01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:59,960 Speaker 1: uh emotionally butler white people into feeling good or something. 1131 01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 1: No Icho had a platform that blew up. It blew 1132 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:07,480 Speaker 1: up so much he got the co host to show 1133 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:11,320 Speaker 1: with me at twenty nine. It blew up. And his 1134 01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:15,240 Speaker 1: conversation was to open and awaken white people to what 1135 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,560 Speaker 1: black people were saying. There are steps to that, right, 1136 01:03:18,640 --> 01:03:20,800 Speaker 1: you don't just go, oh yeah, let me open your eyes. 1137 01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:24,880 Speaker 1: By the way, why And I think that if you 1138 01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:27,920 Speaker 1: want to whop, then it should be uncomfortable conversations with 1139 01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:32,040 Speaker 1: a black man man Lathan. They should have figured out 1140 01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 1: how to do a two part series like here's the 1141 01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,600 Speaker 1: A side, here's the B side, and they're both equally 1142 01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:40,360 Speaker 1: the same. But one's gonna be sweet, one's gonna be sour. 1143 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 1: We're coming for you. But if you haven't checked the 1144 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 1: interview out, please please check it out. Um the micro 1145 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:53,080 Speaker 1: differences in us, the microaggressions. They discussed, uh, blackness, what 1146 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 1: does it look like? But I think that vance thesis 1147 01:03:56,480 --> 01:04:02,120 Speaker 1: was bro, you ain't black like me? And it was 1148 01:04:02,160 --> 01:04:04,080 Speaker 1: funny to me because I was like, oh, y'all try now, 1149 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 1: something's cool to say that somebody ain't black like you. 1150 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 1: But when I said it about Kaepernick, oh but my 1151 01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,120 Speaker 1: wife is not jeering and Dutch, so like people thought, 1152 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 1: I was like with some hate, I was like, nah, 1153 01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:18,080 Speaker 1: black and white. I know my wife, I know her family. 1154 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: Good lord, it ain't the same. It ain't. I couldn't, 1155 01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 1: man stop, I ain't. I couldn't do any of the 1156 01:04:26,400 --> 01:04:29,320 Speaker 1: stuff that I hear sometimes she she talks about I 1157 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:32,160 Speaker 1: didn't live in through any of that stuff, and vice versa. 1158 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:35,160 Speaker 1: So check that interview out. We probably have some more 1159 01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 1: conversations on it going forward. But it was riveting, it 1160 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:44,760 Speaker 1: was necessary, and it was certainly uncomfortable. And while we're 1161 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 1: on the conversation of race, speaking of uncomfortable, Andrew Tate 1162 01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 1: is black saying it ain't. So according to Toure, the writer, 1163 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 1: that's a friend. UM, I've actually contributed to a story 1164 01:04:55,760 --> 01:04:58,680 Speaker 1: maybe a book he's writing. Um, I'll tell you about 1165 01:04:58,720 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 1: that later. But I think this was satire. I think 1166 01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:08,280 Speaker 1: this was in jest, but it was raised because people 1167 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 1: hate Andrew Take. People don't like Andrew Take, like why 1168 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 1: he got to be black and is he black? Or 1169 01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:17,040 Speaker 1: question his blackness? More importantly, threatened to kick him out 1170 01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 1: of being black. You know, he can't come to the picnic. 1171 01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:22,920 Speaker 1: That's always funny to me. And then I'll be like, 1172 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:28,560 Speaker 1: that is not funny, Like you're black. But there's differences 1173 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:32,040 Speaker 1: in being black, right obviously, Andrew take black and me black. 1174 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:35,160 Speaker 1: Come on, it's gonna be different. And that's okay. So 1175 01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,480 Speaker 1: we're not this mono lift. Let's stop that. But this 1176 01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:42,120 Speaker 1: conversation they had um talking about there was an article 1177 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:45,760 Speaker 1: I read excuse me by Tori really was talking about 1178 01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:50,440 Speaker 1: like the racial draft silliness. Um, can we trade him? 1179 01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:54,000 Speaker 1: Oh no, we gotta trade him? And Candice Owens and 1180 01:05:54,560 --> 01:05:58,000 Speaker 1: like it's just crazy, like we do it in fun 1181 01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:00,920 Speaker 1: I know that's the entertainment business side of this, but 1182 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:04,320 Speaker 1: in all seriousness because Andrew, take this quote unquote, a 1183 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 1: bad person doesn't change his identity, doesn't change who he is. 1184 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 1: You know, Um, you can't pick and choose based on 1185 01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 1: accomplishment and accolade who could be? But it seems like 1186 01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:20,280 Speaker 1: people do that, Like people are like really get mad 1187 01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:23,560 Speaker 1: at some of the black thought leaders are opinion this 1188 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 1: out there because they're not saying what quote unquote black 1189 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:30,920 Speaker 1: people should say. And I'm like, that's the problem too, 1190 01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:34,680 Speaker 1: what should we say? I'm sorry, I'm black. I don't 1191 01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:37,360 Speaker 1: have the script, you know what I mean? What the 1192 01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:40,240 Speaker 1: hell is that? Last night? Give it? Give you an example. 1193 01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 1: Last night I went to see Jordan's Peterson and on 1194 01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:49,080 Speaker 1: his book tour. I love Jordan Peterson. That brain is 1195 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:52,960 Speaker 1: bigger than if I had that brain size and capacity. 1196 01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 1: Good nurse. He's smart people, you know, and then they 1197 01:06:57,720 --> 01:07:01,400 Speaker 1: always gotta qualify. Oh, I don't agree with everything he says. Duffoo, 1198 01:07:02,840 --> 01:07:07,040 Speaker 1: Jordan is close. Jordan be saying some stuff. Man, he's smart. Um. 1199 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:09,800 Speaker 1: I just like how he just unpacks it. He goes 1200 01:07:09,840 --> 01:07:11,920 Speaker 1: so high that you're sitting there like nor bring it 1201 01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:16,200 Speaker 1: down here? And then he does h read his book 1202 01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:19,840 Speaker 1: twelve Rules. I got my wife hip to him on videos. 1203 01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 1: She loves him. Um.

You ain't even have 1250 01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:22,200 Speaker 1: to go anywhere first, you got inner power. Everything you 1251 01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 1: want on the outside is already in you. That's what 1252 01:10:24,479 --> 01:10:27,000 Speaker 1: God is, That's what the universe tells you. That's what 1253 01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:30,280 Speaker 1: all these things are about. The metaphysics of it all. 1254 01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:35,000 Speaker 1: You have it, You possess it. The confidence, uh, the honesty, 1255 01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 1: the openness, the truth. Um be real, man, you had 1256 01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:42,599 Speaker 1: a bad growing up, but you had a good system. 1257 01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:45,680 Speaker 1: So that means those cards can get played properly so 1258 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:48,599 Speaker 1: that it turns out well for you. Right now these 1259 01:10:48,600 --> 01:10:53,280 Speaker 1: cards not playing being played well, bro.

But man, I did have a bad financial 1310 01:13:53,479 --> 01:14:00,080 Speaker 1: transaction before. Let me tell you about this. So I 1311 01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:03,160 Speaker 1: purchased all let me start here. It was a house 1312 01:14:03,360 --> 01:14:06,839 Speaker 1: that I was buying in the neighborhood where Smokey Robinson 1313 01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:10,360 Speaker 1: lived across the street. Said the entertainer lived in the neighborhood. 1314 01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:15,479 Speaker 1: Anthony Anderson was building, um, and I was like, oh, 1315 01:14:15,520 --> 01:14:19,040 Speaker 1: this looks like, you know, great great celebrity on clave 1316 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:23,080 Speaker 1: gated community, a little a little out there. So I 1317 01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:26,719 Speaker 1: was kind of pumped because, um, I wanted some space 1318 01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:32,800 Speaker 1: from everybody out here. And then that's what it was. Okay, 1319 01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:37,599 Speaker 1: let me see what happened. Uh praise, praisal came through, 1320 01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 1: Uh praise. It was at eight million dollars, I said. 1321 01:14:42,240 --> 01:14:44,080 Speaker 1: I said, I got this out for two million, and 1322 01:14:44,120 --> 01:14:47,040 Speaker 1: it's a praise that eight it's going down a praise. 1323 01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:50,839 Speaker 1: With the plans, I had to just finish some things, refurbished, rehash, 1324 01:14:50,960 --> 01:14:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, build a little, built a lot, it feels like. 1325 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:57,400 Speaker 1: But the house was already there all right. So I'm like, 1326 01:14:57,439 --> 01:15:00,679 Speaker 1: I'm playing with six million dollars. You know, house money, 1327 01:15:00,720 --> 01:15:04,680 Speaker 1: bank money man. Now let's play big bank, take a 1328 01:15:04,720 --> 01:15:09,479 Speaker 1: little bank, start building, start building. I'm living next door, um, 1329 01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:15,360 Speaker 1: some community, chilling way out chast Worth, but having a ball. Finally, 1330 01:15:15,400 --> 01:15:19,360 Speaker 1: the house is complete, um houses complete, and I think 1331 01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:22,160 Speaker 1: it was completed right around oh eight, and this is 1332 01:15:22,200 --> 01:15:25,120 Speaker 1: the time I'm traveling up finally start working. I stopped 1333 01:15:25,160 --> 01:15:31,160 Speaker 1: riding around making up fake errands. I'm riding around. Uh, 1334 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:35,519 Speaker 1: I'm kicking it. I got this big old playof house. 1335 01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:38,320 Speaker 1: This house was player too. I had a girlfriend at 1336 01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:41,160 Speaker 1: the time, but we were on the out. We were 1337 01:15:41,160 --> 01:15:43,640 Speaker 1: on the out slash. She would never gonna be the 1338 01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:45,679 Speaker 1: one for me, and I think she could say the same, 1339 01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:49,720 Speaker 1: So I don't feel bad saying that. Um and the 1340 01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:53,280 Speaker 1: reason why she was too short, she was so nice 1341 01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:57,880 Speaker 1: and sweet whatever.

But 1346 01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, I'm hearing about this housing crisis. I'm like, 1347 01:16:17,400 --> 01:16:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm glad I'm in my house. And then they came 1348 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:25,920 Speaker 1: back with too appraisal. The appraisal was for one was 1349 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:30,599 Speaker 1: it one? I think it was one point nine million dollars. 1350 01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:35,439 Speaker 1: I said, ah, what does that matter? Okay, what does 1351 01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:38,680 Speaker 1: it matter is because obviously I was spending money at 1352 01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:42,800 Speaker 1: a different clip, a different valuation um, the house end 1353 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:46,800 Speaker 1: up being four or five million total in UM, and 1354 01:16:46,840 --> 01:16:49,200 Speaker 1: here it is worth only half of that, less than 1355 01:16:49,200 --> 01:16:53,479 Speaker 1: half of that, all right? Not tripping. Also, I'm not 1356 01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:58,120 Speaker 1: home because I'm at ESPN three weekends, three weeks of 1357 01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,360 Speaker 1: the month.

Then I'll get the spiderwebs out the way. 1360 01:17:05,720 --> 01:17:07,960 Speaker 1: Then I go in the room. It's so cold because 1361 01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 1: no one's been there for a week or so. Then 1362 01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:13,639 Speaker 1: I will just go and say hello, Hello, Hello. Traveling 1363 01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:15,680 Speaker 1: it was just me. I think we finally broke up 1364 01:17:15,680 --> 01:17:18,080 Speaker 1: when she was at her own spot and I was like, dog, 1365 01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:24,080 Speaker 1: this ain't it. And then my monthly uh mortgage was 1366 01:17:24,160 --> 01:17:27,760 Speaker 1: like thirty three thousand. I said, damn, this a bad rate, 1367 01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 1: Like damn because it was at that high valuation. I said, 1368 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:35,960 Speaker 1: oh no, no, sir, not me.

It does not 1445 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:40,599 Speaker 1: take edit thousand dollars a month to raise no three 1446 01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:45,360 Speaker 1: kids unless you're paying for everything plus then I can 1447 01:21:45,400 --> 01:21:48,599 Speaker 1: see like private school, you know all that stuff. Then 1448 01:21:48,600 --> 01:21:51,080 Speaker 1: it might even get hired, being real, but it doesn't 1449 01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,840 Speaker 1: work that way. Usually it's like the person with the 1450 01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,360 Speaker 1: money or the father. You pay all that stuff and 1451 01:21:56,439 --> 01:21:58,559 Speaker 1: you getting a d K a month just to keep 1452 01:21:58,600 --> 01:22:02,439 Speaker 1: the lifestyle up. Come on, this is what gives marriage 1453 01:22:02,439 --> 01:22:04,920 Speaker 1: a stigma. This is why people don't want to get 1454 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:08,120 Speaker 1: married for other reasons. But this is high on the list. 1455 01:22:08,560 --> 01:22:12,439 Speaker 1: Ain't nobody taking everything I got? Dog like one. You 1456 01:22:12,479 --> 01:22:17,160 Speaker 1: can't predict your own behavior for thirty forty years, right, 1457 01:22:17,200 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 1: you can't forecast that long. I meanttioned. Look, I couldn't 1458 01:22:20,840 --> 01:22:23,559 Speaker 1: forecast two years when I saw my deal four years ago. 1459 01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:25,320 Speaker 1: I couldn't forecast that I was gonna be doing it 1460 01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:30,000 Speaker 1: podcast and doing show from home and having an ownership 1461 01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:33,400 Speaker 1: in a network TV and you know it brings TV 1462 01:22:33,680 --> 01:22:36,880 Speaker 1: and all the stuff I got going on building enterprises 1463 01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:42,360 Speaker 1: I didn't partner and two different other organizations like, hey, 1464 01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:47,240 Speaker 1: oh no, So to predict that for another person as 1465 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:52,599 Speaker 1: bad as well? Man, So when when it's over, when 1466 01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:56,479 Speaker 1: it's a problem, when it's done, come the funk down, 1467 01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:03,519 Speaker 1: protect your neck and show some respect. These kids don't 1468 01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:05,799 Speaker 1: need all that you're gonna drain, daddy. That's what happens. 1469 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:09,360 Speaker 1: You drained the golden goose. It doesn't lay any gold negs. 1470 01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:12,280 Speaker 1: So that's what happens in these situations. And it happened 1471 01:23:12,280 --> 01:23:16,320 Speaker 1: to me like I ain't get drained. But um, what 1472 01:23:16,320 --> 01:23:20,120 Speaker 1: with my child's mother, my baby mama, um and morocca. 1473 01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:23,200 Speaker 1: As soon as we broke up, I immediately wrote a 1474 01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:25,800 Speaker 1: check to her. I wrote her a check. I think 1475 01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:28,519 Speaker 1: it was that day I said, look, I know things 1476 01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:32,639 Speaker 1: are not right. I told her Um. I was in Buffalo, 1477 01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:35,960 Speaker 1: she stayed with her friends. We we ain't gonna stay together. 1478 01:23:36,000 --> 01:23:40,360 Speaker 1: We are too volatile. This is over. I know the 1479 01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:44,280 Speaker 1: baby's coming. Like here, here's a check. I forget with 1480 01:23:44,320 --> 01:23:47,240 Speaker 1: the amount, maybe three thousand dollars. So I was like, here, 1481 01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:49,360 Speaker 1: here's a check, just to get you through the week 1482 01:23:49,479 --> 01:23:52,960 Speaker 1: or whatever. Look at me, Um, and let us figure 1483 01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:57,000 Speaker 1: this out. And I remember I remember saying this, if 1484 01:23:57,040 --> 01:24:00,920 Speaker 1: we I said, also, I will take care my daughter 1485 01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:06,200 Speaker 1: and you blank check. I do not want to go 1486 01:24:06,280 --> 01:24:09,680 Speaker 1: to court and be forced to pay you. And she 1487 01:24:09,760 --> 01:24:12,280 Speaker 1: took that as I was trying to get over as 1488 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:15,000 Speaker 1: she should. She was hurt, we were breaking up. She 1489 01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:17,960 Speaker 1: had a baby from me, Um. But for me, I 1490 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:21,479 Speaker 1: was saying, nah, I want to be there for y'all. 1491 01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:23,640 Speaker 1: I want us to have that type of relationship that 1492 01:24:23,720 --> 01:24:26,800 Speaker 1: we have to have discourse and talk through it and 1493 01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,840 Speaker 1: have to go through that emotional place together and whatever 1494 01:24:29,880 --> 01:24:32,080 Speaker 1: that number is, I got you. If I got it, 1495 01:24:32,280 --> 01:24:35,360 Speaker 1: you got it. Not trust right there, And it was 1496 01:24:35,400 --> 01:24:39,000 Speaker 1: probably horrible timing, but that trust right there would have 1497 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:43,520 Speaker 1: been amazing to me. But that's not how we played it. 1498 01:24:43,640 --> 01:24:45,880 Speaker 1: End up going down. She took me to court. And 1499 01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:48,880 Speaker 1: immediately I was like, this ain't going in well one 1500 01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:53,720 Speaker 1: And to frankly, I was like, she was gonna get 1501 01:24:53,720 --> 01:25:00,320 Speaker 1: more with me. It turns out yes, crazy. She remember 1502 01:25:00,320 --> 01:25:01,880 Speaker 1: I gave her a three thousand dollars for the week. 1503 01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:04,760 Speaker 1: She ended up only getting three thousand dollars for the 1504 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:07,879 Speaker 1: month after all these court fees and hundreds of thousands 1505 01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:12,160 Speaker 1: of dollars spent on lawyers and subpoenas and investigations. And 1506 01:25:12,439 --> 01:25:16,400 Speaker 1: I was like, I am a good dude. Um, I'm 1507 01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:20,160 Speaker 1: taking care of my my kids already giving you checks. Um, 1508 01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:24,439 Speaker 1: I want custody more importantly, we don't need to beat 1509 01:25:24,520 --> 01:25:27,040 Speaker 1: over this. They're not gonna give you more. And this 1510 01:25:27,080 --> 01:25:29,439 Speaker 1: is before my my first big deal. I had my 1511 01:25:29,479 --> 01:25:32,439 Speaker 1: Buffalo deal, my rookie contract, but I ain't get my 1512 01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:35,000 Speaker 1: Chargers money. I's like, don't do it. They're gonna get you. 1513 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,080 Speaker 1: She just was like, no, they're gonna do it. And 1514 01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:39,080 Speaker 1: then so I give my charge of money. She takes 1515 01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:41,040 Speaker 1: me back, and I was like, now you don't prove 1516 01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:44,640 Speaker 1: to them a proof of concept, proof of living expenses. 1517 01:25:44,920 --> 01:25:47,599 Speaker 1: They're not gonna go crazy with it because you've already 1518 01:25:47,600 --> 01:25:52,439 Speaker 1: showed you make you can live off of this timing 1519 01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:54,640 Speaker 1: is everything right. You showed them you can live off 1520 01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:56,639 Speaker 1: for three a month and now you're gonna go ask 1521 01:25:56,680 --> 01:25:58,680 Speaker 1: for what thirty a month because he made so much 1522 01:25:58,680 --> 01:26:03,720 Speaker 1: more and they were like sorry, man, sorry. So then 1523 01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:06,720 Speaker 1: we went back and corn again. And I still love 1524 01:26:06,760 --> 01:26:08,920 Speaker 1: a bit. Mama can't be mad at somebody who's just 1525 01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:11,080 Speaker 1: mad at you and she's not mad at me. Now 1526 01:26:11,200 --> 01:26:16,320 Speaker 1: we're all good. Um, it got reduced trying to take 1527 01:26:16,320 --> 01:26:18,080 Speaker 1: me again. I was like, man, this is crazy, this 1528 01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:21,240 Speaker 1: is crazy. So the point of the story is, man, 1529 01:26:22,080 --> 01:26:24,040 Speaker 1: find a way, And I know the timing is tough 1530 01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 1: because when you're in that emotional space you can't see straight. 1531 01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:31,320 Speaker 1: But find a way to make sure that you'll not 1532 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:34,840 Speaker 1: only protect your neck, but show respect um and make 1533 01:26:34,840 --> 01:26:37,040 Speaker 1: sure that the kids come first because obviously you guys 1534 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:39,920 Speaker 1: don't come first anymore because it's a rap for the relationship. 1535 01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:43,320 Speaker 1: Make sure those kids come first. If not, that golden 1536 01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:47,400 Speaker 1: goose ain't gonna be laying no golden eggs. Yeah, it 1537 01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:50,280 Speaker 1: sounds like mustard baby Mama doing too much or ex 1538 01:26:50,320 --> 01:26:53,880 Speaker 1: wife Muzzard bro, she's doing too much. Speaking of doing 1539 01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:56,559 Speaker 1: too much, you have to look up doing too much 1540 01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:58,479 Speaker 1: in the dictionary. You know who face will pop up 1541 01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:02,080 Speaker 1: Shakari ship carry Richardson. I still don't know which one. 1542 01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:07,000 Speaker 1: It's like Terrell and Terrell Owens. But Icari Richardson, my god, 1543 01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:12,320 Speaker 1: kicked off the flight American Airline flight for recording. During 1544 01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:15,479 Speaker 1: those sacred minutes, you have to give every flight attendant. 1545 01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:17,599 Speaker 1: We know what they are, we know when they are, 1546 01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:21,320 Speaker 1: calm the hell down, give them your full attention, or 1547 01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:23,800 Speaker 1: at least play it off like you are and don't 1548 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:27,680 Speaker 1: get in trouble in that time. But Icari, she can 1549 01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:29,800 Speaker 1: do it. She figured out a way. Let me just 1550 01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:32,639 Speaker 1: start off by saying she a hot mess, like Icari 1551 01:27:32,720 --> 01:27:35,760 Speaker 1: Richardson is a mess, and y'all been caping for her 1552 01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:38,840 Speaker 1: for so long, And oh, come on, man, she young. 1553 01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:41,920 Speaker 1: I have a twenty three year old. She's twenty two. 1554 01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 1: She's one year younger than my oldest daughter. And it's 1555 01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:50,559 Speaker 1: seen the world because of her track efforts. Right, y'all 1556 01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:53,960 Speaker 1: need to stop? Oh well, you know she has been 1557 01:27:53,960 --> 01:27:58,599 Speaker 1: through a lot. Who hasn't. Who hasn't I lost my 1558 01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:02,360 Speaker 1: mom when I was young. It was like ertie nine, 1559 01:28:02,360 --> 01:28:05,439 Speaker 1: whatever wasn't twenty two. But the point is I have 1560 01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:09,479 Speaker 1: friends who didn't lose their parents before my cousin who 1561 01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:12,679 Speaker 1: grew up without her mom and dad because they both 1562 01:28:12,720 --> 01:28:18,240 Speaker 1: died before she was three months old. When you act 1563 01:28:18,320 --> 01:28:21,360 Speaker 1: the hot mess, it's something different, and it's interesting. I 1564 01:28:21,479 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 1: just heard it termed last night. When you like have 1565 01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:36,440 Speaker 1: unbordered censorship, like unbordered restrictions, you can mistake that for freedom. 1566 01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:40,719 Speaker 1: M catch me, y'all, catch me, y'all, let's talk. When 1567 01:28:40,760 --> 01:28:44,679 Speaker 1: you think that freedom really means you could do whatever 1568 01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:49,080 Speaker 1: you won't, you don't know what freedom is. Freedom starts 1569 01:28:49,080 --> 01:28:53,280 Speaker 1: for restrictions, limits, and that's where the freedom comes from. 1570 01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:59,040 Speaker 1: By plying yourself, by actually engaging yourself and the principles 1571 01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:02,160 Speaker 1: and the rules that this, that's how you create your freedom. 1572 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:06,719 Speaker 1: Jordan Peterson was talking about this, and it's interesting because, um, 1573 01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:09,000 Speaker 1: I've known this, I felt this, but I never heard 1574 01:29:09,040 --> 01:29:14,160 Speaker 1: it articulated. Like by doing what you're supposed to do, 1575 01:29:14,200 --> 01:29:16,800 Speaker 1: you get to do what you want to do, right said? 1576 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:19,920 Speaker 1: What was that? Do what you're supposed to do, then 1577 01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:22,720 Speaker 1: you can do what you want to do. I tell 1578 01:29:22,760 --> 01:29:24,960 Speaker 1: my kids that all the time. And Jordan Peterson said 1579 01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,960 Speaker 1: that last night at his show, and Shakari just hasn't 1580 01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:32,400 Speaker 1: gotten that lesson. Yet no freedom is not I can 1581 01:29:32,479 --> 01:29:36,839 Speaker 1: film myself and you jumped in my video, Mr. Flight attendant. 1582 01:29:36,840 --> 01:29:38,519 Speaker 1: First of all, nobody could jump in your video. It's 1583 01:29:38,520 --> 01:29:41,559 Speaker 1: a selfie, Like we're gonna jump on your lap. You 1584 01:29:41,600 --> 01:29:45,439 Speaker 1: showed him. And then the craziest thing is she thought 1585 01:29:45,479 --> 01:29:48,360 Speaker 1: she had backup. She thought she had support. She was like, 1586 01:29:48,760 --> 01:29:51,160 Speaker 1: y'all see this. They're tripping on me. Y'all see this, 1587 01:29:51,680 --> 01:29:54,559 Speaker 1: and then you can hear it wasn't a uniform. Yes, 1588 01:29:55,280 --> 01:29:58,559 Speaker 1: it was like and somebody probably said I don't know 1589 01:29:58,600 --> 01:30:01,280 Speaker 1: what they said. I couldn't hear, but they weren't with her. 1590 01:30:01,439 --> 01:30:05,519 Speaker 1: They were like, they're probably like, turn your damn phone off, 1591 01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:07,679 Speaker 1: and ain't that hard like what you're doing, Like, let's 1592 01:30:07,760 --> 01:30:09,280 Speaker 1: just take our flight. You can put it back on 1593 01:30:09,360 --> 01:30:11,640 Speaker 1: in five minutes and we're good. And then she's like, 1594 01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:13,400 Speaker 1: oh no, you don't talk to me like that. To 1595 01:30:13,560 --> 01:30:16,879 Speaker 1: somebody else, you know, the domino start falling in. Everybody 1596 01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:20,080 Speaker 1: got their courage. Now, hey, won't you just calm down? 1597 01:30:20,120 --> 01:30:22,240 Speaker 1: It ain't it that serious? And and curse that her 1598 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:24,760 Speaker 1: maybe because she cursed back. I'm assuming they cursed that. 1599 01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:29,640 Speaker 1: At first. Here's the point, we know you because you 1600 01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:33,240 Speaker 1: run track and you run fast. You've run faster before, 1601 01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 1: and you can get back to that because you're still 1602 01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:39,040 Speaker 1: only twenty two. But won't you just focus on that 1603 01:30:39,320 --> 01:30:41,760 Speaker 1: instead of this whole like seem like she's on it 1604 01:30:41,920 --> 01:30:44,920 Speaker 1: like human initiative to just I could do what I 1605 01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:47,040 Speaker 1: wanna do, y'all could do what y'all wanna do. We're 1606 01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:51,640 Speaker 1: gonna love everybody no matter what they do, what, no, 1607 01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:55,840 Speaker 1: we not. I am first in line to tell people, Oh, 1608 01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:58,880 Speaker 1: I judge you by your actions. Yes I do, Yes, 1609 01:30:59,040 --> 01:31:01,839 Speaker 1: I do, And I want to be judged by my actions. 1610 01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:04,840 Speaker 1: That's why, because I don't want to do anything to 1611 01:31:04,880 --> 01:31:07,240 Speaker 1: you and you can just take it and just have 1612 01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:11,200 Speaker 1: to take it vice versa. So I think she's really 1613 01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:15,840 Speaker 1: in this weird place where she just thinks that all 1614 01:31:15,880 --> 01:31:20,560 Speaker 1: of these expressions are not only profound, but they're authentic. 1615 01:31:20,680 --> 01:31:24,840 Speaker 1: And since they are authentic and profound and real, then 1616 01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:27,720 Speaker 1: anybody got a problem with it, something wrong with them. 1617 01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:30,280 Speaker 1: They're trying to hold me back, they're trying to restrict me. 1618 01:31:31,320 --> 01:31:34,280 Speaker 1: You better grow up, and I did have to grow up. 1619 01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:35,840 Speaker 1: Let me tell you, you you know me. I ain't gonna 1620 01:31:35,840 --> 01:31:39,479 Speaker 1: bash her without assisting her in the bashing by telling 1621 01:31:39,520 --> 01:31:42,320 Speaker 1: them myself. You know, I gotta show you my scars. 1622 01:31:42,400 --> 01:31:44,360 Speaker 1: I remember one time I was playing for the Chargers 1623 01:31:44,680 --> 01:31:48,560 Speaker 1: and I had a hummer, A real hummer, like Arnold schwarzenigger. 1624 01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:51,840 Speaker 1: She's a hummer like a hummer, you know what I mean. 1625 01:31:52,920 --> 01:31:55,560 Speaker 1: And I think I had so many speakers in it. 1626 01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:58,680 Speaker 1: I think it wasn't some magazines or cribs something where 1627 01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:02,719 Speaker 1: y'all can see how many speakers. I it was stilly, silly. 1628 01:32:02,760 --> 01:32:05,280 Speaker 1: It was fresh, too black on the outside, cream on 1629 01:32:05,320 --> 01:32:10,320 Speaker 1: the inside, buckside cream on the inside. That thing with 1630 01:32:10,680 --> 01:32:15,240 Speaker 1: fire convertible. Oh, I used to have fun in that, 1631 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:20,000 Speaker 1: in that convertible hummer. Let me just say that. But 1632 01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:23,720 Speaker 1: one time I did too much and I even had 1633 01:32:23,760 --> 01:32:26,040 Speaker 1: to catch myself, and I adn't catch myself at the moment. 1634 01:32:26,080 --> 01:32:28,840 Speaker 1: So maybe Kari didn't catch yourself just yet. But maybe 1635 01:32:28,880 --> 01:32:32,479 Speaker 1: some of this backlash and people just like yo, calm 1636 01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:35,960 Speaker 1: down and just run, like you know, stop running your 1637 01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:39,000 Speaker 1: mouth from just run, you know.

Yeah, but if not, go ahead, 1641 01:32:48,479 --> 01:32:50,679 Speaker 1: do what you gotta do, but do it the right way. 1642 01:32:50,720 --> 01:32:53,120 Speaker 1: This ain't the right way. So I remember I pulled 1643 01:32:53,200 --> 01:32:54,880 Speaker 1: up the chapel, and this ain't the right way either, 1644 01:32:55,840 --> 01:32:59,160 Speaker 1: I said, chapel, y'all.

Your eyes stop playing? All right, it's 1972 01:51:56,840 --> 01:52:01,240 Speaker 1: time for ticky talk, t you talk. What's one thing 1973 01:52:01,280 --> 01:52:04,160 Speaker 1: that people are generally surprised to find out about you? 1974 01:52:04,720 --> 01:52:07,400 Speaker 1: I would say the number one surprise is always that 1975 01:52:07,640 --> 01:52:14,120 Speaker 1: I'm the national typewriting champion in nine. Everybody makes a 1976 01:52:14,200 --> 01:52:18,000 Speaker 1: joke about that. Everyone is shocked. Everyone has something to 1977 01:52:18,040 --> 01:52:21,439 Speaker 1: say about that, partly because I'm so big, partly because 1978 01:52:21,439 --> 01:52:25,080 Speaker 1: I don't look like and a secretary or a personal assistant. 1979 01:52:25,520 --> 01:52:27,320 Speaker 1: Look at my fingers, don't look like I could type 1980 01:52:27,320 --> 01:52:29,839 Speaker 1: at all. And I did it on an old typewriter. 1981 01:52:29,960 --> 01:52:32,960 Speaker 1: Like clean Murder, she wrote, clean murder, she wrote, right, 1982 01:52:34,760 --> 01:52:38,960 Speaker 1: clean murder, she wrote. But yeah, that's the one thing, uh, 1983 01:52:39,280 --> 01:52:41,200 Speaker 1: other than that, I think people always say I'm so 1984 01:52:41,240 --> 01:52:43,120 Speaker 1: down to earth, which I don't think it's a compliment. 1985 01:52:43,200 --> 01:52:46,160 Speaker 1: You need to stop saying that everybody's down the earth, 1986 01:52:46,240 --> 01:52:48,479 Speaker 1: whether they acted or not. And I guess you're saying, Look, 1987 01:52:48,479 --> 01:52:51,519 Speaker 1: you act like you are despite you shouldn't because you 1988 01:52:51,600 --> 01:52:55,120 Speaker 1: have some notoriety. Uh, it's just this big old tornado 1989 01:52:55,200 --> 01:52:58,200 Speaker 1: of weirdness when I hear that. But I do take 1990 01:52:58,240 --> 01:53:00,360 Speaker 1: the compliment. I do not clown someone who's as that 1991 01:53:00,800 --> 01:53:04,320 Speaker 1: they do not know what they do. But it is 1992 01:53:04,360 --> 01:53:06,799 Speaker 1: not flattering to hear him down the earth, because everybody 1993 01:53:06,800 --> 01:53:08,519 Speaker 1: should be down earth. So maybe it should be really 1994 01:53:08,600 --> 01:53:13,120 Speaker 1: criticism to others, alright, tyme for hashtag asked that dude, 1995 01:53:13,960 --> 01:53:18,000 Speaker 1: asked that dude on Twitter hashtag A S K D 1996 01:53:18,120 --> 01:53:20,040 Speaker 1: A T D U d E.

And yeah, you're gonna hear yourself talk, but 2036 01:55:34,600 --> 01:55:38,200 Speaker 1: you need to be inside yourself talking right. Or worry, 2037 01:55:38,240 --> 01:55:41,120 Speaker 1: which is in your own head, trying to imagine all 2038 01:55:41,120 --> 01:55:44,920 Speaker 1: the scenarios and usually in a negative way.

But I always run 2048 01:56:16,920 --> 01:56:20,000 Speaker 1: negative scenarios about anything I want to do. I basically 2049 01:56:20,080 --> 01:56:23,000 Speaker 1: am a hurdler. Always put ten hurdles out there, right, 2050 01:56:23,400 --> 01:56:26,160 Speaker 1: and then I say, let's run.
