Because the thing is, 122 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 4: when you're at work, they're tying up your time. Yes 123 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 4: they're paying you to be there, but they literally are 124 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 4: tying up your time.

They're really afraid not 208 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: having power, and the quickest way to get them out 209 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 2: of power in our country is to vote against them, 210 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 2: not just to not vote for them, but to vote 211 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 2: against them. 212 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: I was saying yesterday. 213 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 2: And I who knows this is probably on some T 214 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 2: shirt somewhere. A million people probably thought this before I 215 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 2: thought it, but it was the first time I had 216 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: thought about it and encapsulated it in a way that 217 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 2: I thought was easily, readily understandable. But you get what 218 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: you vote for, and you get what you don't vote for. 219 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: Come on.

Because most of that stuff I 241 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 2: see it's from social media. I don't know that that's 242 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:32,199 Speaker 2: indicative of black people in general. That's a very hand selected, 243 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,959 Speaker 2: loud minority of black people who you know, they all 244 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 2: it's like we hate Obama on Twitter. 245 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: We you know what I'm saying. We never liked Martin. 246 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 3: You know. 247 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 2: It's like a certain type of black person that excels 248 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 2: at social media like that that I don't know if 249 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 2: they represent the you know, the majority of our community. 250 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 2: But like I said, I was. I just finished The 251 00:11:57,480 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 2: Underground Railroad by Barry. 252 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 1: Jenkins, the TV show, great show. Loved it. 253 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 2: Thought it was really good, really well done, really well shot, 254 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 2: all that stuff. But I kept feeling this anger inside 255 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 2: of me because I really loved them. I thought it 256 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: was very well done, and I think the Leena Waite 257 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 2: hate shit stopped it from getting the amount of eyes 258 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 2: on it that it deserves. And I really think that 259 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 2: it was unfair what happened. I think it was a 260 00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: lot of group think shit where people were piling on 261 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 2: because it's cool to hate on her, and she barely 262 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 2: had anything to do with the actual day to day 263 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 2: or that show. 264 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: She basically got it produced, she produced it and got 265 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 1: it funded. But that's it. 266 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:43,840 Speaker 3: That's it. 267 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 2: And I and the main thing that pissed me off 268 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 2: was that people lied about that Barry Jenkins series. They 269 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 2: just out and out live. This is the second time 270 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 2: that I've remembered this happening. The first was with Harriet 271 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 2: and now this and they lie the opposite way with 272 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 2: this one, where they said there's no trauma in it, 273 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 2: and well, once you get past the first episode, everything 274 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 2: is pretty It's like, no, what happened to our people 275 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 2: is a very traumatic thing. So it's impossible to tell 276 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 2: those stories without there being trauma. And that's that's traumatic 277 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 2: shit that happens throughout the whole series. 278 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: And that's okay, you know, it's it's it's not real, 279 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 1: it's acting. They had a set. 280 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 2: They had a psychologist and therapists and shit, they're like 281 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 2: same thing with them, like it's okay. 282 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: You know, like everyone take a breath. You don't have 283 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: to do it. You don't have to watch it, you 284 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: shure don't. This is not me scolding you for not watching. 285 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,439 Speaker 2: But I think the outright, the outright lying campaigns I'm 286 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 2: seeing on social media is really starting to make me wonder, 287 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 2: like what is happening? 288 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 4: Yes, because for people that are truly triggered, because there 289 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,199 Speaker 4: are some people they just don't watch it because they 290 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 4: go with this actually affects me, and that's very that's 291 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 4: understandable when y'all go online and you say it's not traumatic, 292 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 4: they take your word for it, go and watch it, 293 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 4: and then they're upset because they feel they feel like. 294 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,680 Speaker 2: Lie to you know, somebody that has true that truly 295 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 2: does have empathy for people. I don't like people lying 296 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 2: because they want to play favorites because what happened is 297 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 2: the anti Lene Away.

And 328 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 2: it's not just erasing. Some of this stuff was never taught. 329 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 2: So what they're really doing is doubly ensuring that our 330 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 2: kids won't learn about it. 331 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: Correct. 332 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 2: You know, I saw a graphic going around on Twitter 333 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 2: this week of just like all the places that were 334 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 2: masks of black people that weren't just TUSA. 335 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 3: And I've read all across the country. 336 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 2: I've read about those things, you know, I've read about it. 337 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 2: When I read the Sordum Lions and all this other 338 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 2: stuff you read about these things, they happened. It was terrifying, 339 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 2: it was torturous, There was no mercy. 340 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: And at the. 341 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 2: Same time, we don't want to talk about it because 342 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 2: we think we might feel bad, and white people don't 343 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 2: want to talk about it because they were white people 344 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 2: going to feel bad. And what ends up is you 345 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 2: have a history where none of this happened. We have 346 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 2: a history where no one wants to talk about it. 347 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 2: And you know, I'm not saying I'm some tough guys 348 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 2: some shit, but I want to hold everyone's faces and say, hey, 349 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 2: look at this, because it's happening again. 350 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,960 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. This is if it. 351 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 2: Happened before and it happened here. I don't know why 352 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,360 Speaker 2: people think that can't happen again. You know, the move 353 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,719 Speaker 2: bombing wasn't that long ago, you know what I mean? Like, 354 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, so I just think it's very important. 355 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 2: But I'm glad. 356 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: But thank you, miss Mary smile because sometimes when I 357 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: talk about that stuff, I. 358 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 2: Can feel a feeling inside of me that's like I 359 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 2: don't want to be that guy. And I definitely understand 360 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 2: and have empathy for people. But and maybe people are 361 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 2: taking this out of context or taking it the wrong. 362 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: Way and whatever. 363 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: But when y'all write in and go, nah, I appreciate 364 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 2: y'all and that's what I like about the show, then 365 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 2: I go, okay, cool, because I never start with the 366 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: intent to hurt somebody's feelings or dismiss them. 367 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 1: But you know, I can't help how people receive it. Sometimes. 368 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 2: Keith says, one of the things that's been really hard 369 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 2: to find since last March's waits for home workouts. I 370 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 2: remember the day the governor shut everything down. My wife 371 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 2: and I were on a pretty strong fitness kick, so 372 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 2: I ran to the store to get a bench in 373 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 2: a few ways that I come back on payday to 374 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 2: get the rest k back Friday, everything was gone. Did 375 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 2: you see another weight in the store for several months? 376 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 2: Now you can find them, but at inflated prices. They 377 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 2: used to cost about a dollar a pound, but now 378 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 2: that almost twice that. Other people are trying to sell 379 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 2: their rusty, dingy ass weight plates that were sitting around 380 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 2: and using the garage for like eight years second hand 381 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 2: for like one hundred dollars fuck out of here. Well, 382 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 2: I do have to wonder. I mean, maybe you know 383 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 2: because you're a workout person, do it matter if. 384 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: The weights are old and rusty? 385 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 2: If they I mean, it's a weight, right, and do 386 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: it not wait the same like it's still got the 387 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 2: hole in. 388 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 1: It to go on the bar? Right? 389 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 4: Like? 390 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: I don't know, I just shine that bitch up and 391 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: take that sale. 392 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 3: All. 393 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 1: I guess what he's saying is not a sale is. 394 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 3: Because they inflated. 395 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 4: It's just like if it's hused you need to drop 396 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 4: the fucking price if if it's sitting in your basement 397 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 4: and rusted, I'm not paying new prices for old ass weights. 398 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, that makes sense. 399 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,680 Speaker 2: Oh and on the subject of the bar owner who 400 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,959 Speaker 2: rather have no money than let black people have money, 401 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 2: that reminds me something to comedian TREYE. Crowder from The 402 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 2: Liberal Redneck said a year or two back, that was 403 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 2: a on point a conservative. We don't need to need 404 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 2: anyone to tell us who that bar on the voter 405 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:13,360 Speaker 2: for I agree, would burn his own house down if 406 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 2: it meant his liberal neighbor would have to choke on 407 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 2: the smoke. He wasn't talking specifically about race when he 408 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 2: said that, but it definitely applies. 409 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it ain't liberal, you. 410 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 2: Know, white like this is the thing white people who 411 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 2: are conservative and until maybe very I shouldn't say maybe 412 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 2: very reas that's not true in general. 413 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: Okay, So this is not to say it's not historical. 414 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 2: It is historical, and white people that are conservative have 415 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 2: targeted anybody that aligned against them in general. Right, But 416 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 2: there's a vitriol to blackness that they have that is 417 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 2: specific and you can't avoid it even if you're not 418 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 2: the kind of black person that talking about. They see 419 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 2: black skin and they're like, choke on the smoke. What 420 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 2: a liberal white person. They're very much like, yeah, it's annoying, 421 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 2: you know, because like we know liberal white people and 422 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 2: we think of the trope of they gotta go to 423 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: Thanksgiving with the redneck uh uncle, and then they just 424 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 2: roll their eyes and and of course you know woke 425 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: twitters like and then you need to kill them at 426 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 2: the table and destroy. But but in general, you know, 427 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 2: we know that trope right well, on the other side, 428 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 2: they got that trope too. It's you go to Thanksgiving 429 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 2: and your liberal uh it's it's is American dad and 430 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 2: Haley it's oh, she's the liberal hippie in the house 431 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 2: and all. 432 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, your smoke. We we get it, you know. 433 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: So it's always been like this kind of eye rolling 434 00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 2: animosity that's not victre'all's not there. So when you so 435 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 2: like my liberal neighbor to them, it's like, yeah, he 436 00:20:56,240 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 2: got a black Lives Matter flag. I got a Blue 437 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 2: Lives Matter flag. It's like we're rooting just for different teams. 438 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 2: He has a Cowboys flag out of redskin, watching him 439 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 2: football team flag. We don't like each other because we 440 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:12,120 Speaker 2: like different teams, but we're still but we're still respecting 441 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 2: each other. 442 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah. If it's a black house next door, 443 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 1: it's different. 444 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 2: It is I want to burn my house down, and 445 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 2: the black house burns down and fuck them, right, you. 446 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 1: Know what I mean. 447 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 2: Like, but but with the liberal persons, like I roll 448 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 2: my eyes, I'm not burning my house down, uh, Keith. 449 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 2: But Keith was right though, I mean, that's your point, 450 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 2: even he says. Another hard to find product right now 451 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 2: is electronics. I tried to buy a laptop twice in 452 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 2: the pandemic, and the ones I look for are always 453 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 2: out of stock, probably because all the kids have who 454 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 2: have virtual learning. 455 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: That's a good point. 456 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what happened. When we was looking for one. 457 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 4: It was like kind of hard to find, and the 458 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 4: selection wasn't as big as it normally would be. 459 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: It was yo, oh my god. 460 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 3: It was very irritating. 461 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, but hey, we we we needed it for the business, 462 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 2: and we really didn't have much of a choice as 463 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 2: it was literally like mission critical. There's no backup for 464 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: the podcast if anything happens in the house, And I 465 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 2: want to say thank you Spotify money like I don't 466 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 2: know if I've ever said this on the show before. 467 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 2: And maybe it's a black thing. 468 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe I should get over it. But 469 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 1: I have not spent any of our Spotify money. It's 470 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 1: just sitting.

I 474 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: don't know when I'm gonna feel comfortable enough to. 475 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 3: Like y'all know what. We made a mistake it us all. 476 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. 477 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 2: I don't know why I feel that way, but I 478 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 2: mean because I wouldn't give it back. But you know 479 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. But but I was like, but for that, 480 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 2: but for that I did.

Yes I'm vaccinated, 575 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 4: but I just feel safe, safer. Like I went to 576 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 4: go pick up some food last night. I walked in 577 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 4: there and you know, people were in there, they were eating. 578 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 4: You know, nobody had a mask on. But I it 579 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 4: was one of those things, but I felt safe. You know, 580 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 4: the person talking to me, I had to speak up. 581 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 4: You know, they got closer to me because they had 582 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 4: to hit me. Through the mask, which is fine, but 583 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 4: it's almost like that panic sensation is gone because I 584 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 4: know that I'm vaccinated and so that makes a difference, 585 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 4: but I'm still with a mother fucking mask. 586 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 2: Also, I know two people who have mal COVID back 587 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 2: in October in January, they are still dealing with fatigue 588 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 2: and brain fog.

They only don't want that. 590 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 2: It's easy enough to keep my filter mask on in 591 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,959 Speaker 2: crowds and pully ventilated spaces as another layer of protection. 592 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh yeah, man. 593 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 2: That's another thing too, is people downplay having COVID when 594 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 2: they talk about these numbers in the macro, but it's 595 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,159 Speaker 2: just individually when you know people that way through it, 596 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: some people still ain't right man, Keith said, I voted yes, 597 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 2: and I'm vaccinated, but I just wanted to add a caveat. 598 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: I only go maskless when I feel it's appropriate. 599 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 2: For example, I just went to a friend's birthday party 600 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 2: everyone that was vaccinated, and I'm also hosting a wire 601 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 2: tasting of it in my house next month where I 602 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 2: only invited people who are vaccinated so we don't have. 603 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: To wear a mask. 604 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:27,880 Speaker 2: It's still a mental hurdle to go maskless in some 605 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 2: places when I know I don't need to. But if business, 606 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 2: if a business says I have to, then I'll do it. 607 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 2: And if I see I'm going to be the only one, 608 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 2: I'll also do it. 609 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's made sense too. 610 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 4: I know we've been around Roger's parents with they've vaccinated 611 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 4: months before we even saw them, and so they're like 612 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 4: the only people that I'm kind of around that I 613 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 4: don't want a mask at all. But that's completely different 614 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 4: than like other people, you know, like out and open. 615 00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 3: And things like that. 616 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 4: I'm like, nah, I'm good, you know, and you know 617 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 4: when we're not to eat.

I think you said it before, 827 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 2: but White it was a finite resource, and I feel 828 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:03,880 Speaker 2: like it started running low as soon as Trump was 829 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 2: out of office and was fully on e after Derek 830 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 2: Chauven's trial.

And 848 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,920 Speaker 2: even the idea of trying to pass the George Floyd 849 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 2: Justice in Policing Act a year to. 850 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 1: Date after George Floyd died on the anniversary. 851 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 2: You know, I get the political reasoning and like I said, 852 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 2: capitalize on the white guilt. This is not me knocking that, 853 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 2: but even that would have given people a neat narrative, 854 00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 2: like and then we fixed it, didn't we this happening 855 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 2: now it won't happen.

Okay, almost, like 1042 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 4: let's go back to normal. 1043 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:31,319 Speaker 2: We have episode twenty three to forty fear of black hesitancy. 1044 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,919 Speaker 2: MDI says, the fear of black hesidency is hella real. 1045 00:47:36,360 --> 00:47:37,799 Speaker 1: Living in the DC area and. 1046 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,480 Speaker 2: Seeing some of my friends who I know aren't vaccinated 1047 00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:43,200 Speaker 2: still wilding out in bars or hookah spots has shown 1048 00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 2: that it's not about a lack of access. Well, I'm 1049 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 2: sure there are lots of issues, especially because in the 1050 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 2: areas where black people are heavily condensed are also the 1051 00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 2: places where they don't have as many places that do 1052 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 2: walk in appointments or even know about all these about 1053 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 2: the Lift and Uber free ride programs. But yeah, I 1054 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,760 Speaker 2: think a lot more have bought into those conspiracy theories. 1055 00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: And people love a good anecdote to justify not taking something. 1056 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, the power that anecdote. 1057 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 2: Man, it's scary because it's actually not to disarm anybody, 1058 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:19,759 Speaker 2: you know, But honestly, they're not listening to me if 1059 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 2: they got this far in the show and they don't care. 1060 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:27,280 Speaker 2: But the anecdote is confirmation biased, Like how could nobody's 1061 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,319 Speaker 2: anecdote goes against what they believe? You ever noticed that, 1062 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 2: Like all the people that are scared to take the 1063 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 2: vaccine know they have this one person and they took it, 1064 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,240 Speaker 2: and then they got sick and they had. 1065 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:42,080 Speaker 1: To go to the hospital. It's like, okay, so but 1066 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 1: they didn't. 1067 00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:45,120 Speaker 2: The I'm not even gonna say they didn't. I don't 1068 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,280 Speaker 2: know this person, you know, could have been any reason 1069 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,319 Speaker 2: they got sick. But let's say that person really did 1070 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:51,920 Speaker 2: get sick and it was definitely because of the vaccine. 1071 00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 2: And it's always like they got sick, they went to 1072 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:57,359 Speaker 2: the hospital and the nurse told them everybody really getting sick. 1073 00:48:57,440 --> 00:49:00,359 Speaker 1: This happens all the time. And it's like, okay, so 1074 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 1: we don't have no statistics. No one's talking about this. 1075 00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:06,279 Speaker 4: There's no because trust the way they monitoring this shit, 1076 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:07,360 Speaker 4: we would. 1077 00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:08,279 Speaker 3: Know, right. 1078 00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:12,040 Speaker 2: But the anecdote, the power of it is the confirmation 1079 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:16,640 Speaker 2: bias of it. So then they go just coincidentally, that's 1080 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 2: why they got taking it, just coincidentally, you know, because 1081 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:25,480 Speaker 2: it's confirmation biased, and you know, it's not that complex 1082 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,759 Speaker 2: for them. They just pretend that there's some scientific shit. 1083 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:33,360 Speaker 2: And you know, it's sad man to see it because 1084 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:37,000 Speaker 2: it's a lot of black people and I don't know, man, 1085 00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 2: I don't want to be saying goodbye to y'all.

I get emails from the Mayor's 1250 00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:33,239 Speaker 2: office constantly about vaccine drives. The calls to get vaccinator 1251 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:36,320 Speaker 2: is all over the radio local popular radio stations. I 1252 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,480 Speaker 2: remember back in twenty twenty when, right before things are 1253 00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 2: shut down, I had a random conversation with a young 1254 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 2: lady at a bar, and her response was that this 1255 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,160 Speaker 2: was all overblown and that Jesus got her. 1256 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:47,840 Speaker 1: I don't know how many times I've. 1257 00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:50,279 Speaker 2: Heard this sentiment throughout the pandemic from our sisters. It's 1258 00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 2: a shame because we complained that we are the hardest 1259 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:56,320 Speaker 2: hit community. Yet we are faced with a legit solution, 1260 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 2: we revert back to self inflicting patterns. Just wanted to 1261 00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,200 Speaker 2: bring some perspective from the DMV area. I just hope 1262 00:57:02,239 --> 00:57:04,839 Speaker 2: that we eventually come around and realize that it's up 1263 00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 2: to all of us to get through this pandemic and 1264 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:09,680 Speaker 2: rely on just the blood of Jesus to get us 1265 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:13,319 Speaker 2: through this. As you once elegantly put it, Jesus would 1266 00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:14,520 Speaker 2: tell you to take the vaccine. 1267 00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:14,960 Speaker 1: Right. 1268 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:19,600 Speaker 2: Let's do better, y'all.

And I've been very healthy and healthy minded 1478 01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 2: throughout the pandemic because I've just been able to live 1479 01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:42,440 Speaker 2: in a present. But that that report about black people 1480 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:46,160 Speaker 2: in hesitancy has shaken me a bit because I care 1481 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:48,880 Speaker 2: about black people and I keep thinking, this is the 1482 01:06:49,880 --> 01:06:51,440 Speaker 2: this right here is the prelude. 1483 01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:54,360 Speaker 1: We know the system don't care about us like that. 1484 01:06:55,680 --> 01:06:59,320 Speaker 1: This is the pre load. So right now you may 1485 01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:00,120 Speaker 1: feel like every. 1486 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:05,080 Speaker 2: Ain't fine, But if we start going, you know, people 1487 01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:08,200 Speaker 2: go back to church, and my motherfuckers ain't getting vaccinated. 1488 01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:12,400 Speaker 2: It's just coming right back. It's not about how we feel. 1489 01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 2: That's why I've been focused on telling you know. I 1490 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,520 Speaker 2: know Karen goes into the how she feels thing. I'm 1491 01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:20,320 Speaker 2: not saying feelings don't matter at all or I don't 1492 01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:23,240 Speaker 2: care about people's feelings. But I've been focused on keeping 1493 01:07:23,240 --> 01:07:26,120 Speaker 2: this not a feelings podcast and not a feeling segment 1494 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:28,920 Speaker 2: because I don't really it's the feelings. 1495 01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:30,160 Speaker 1: Don't care about this disease. 1496 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 2: The disease don't care about your feelings, right, So you 1497 01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 2: feeling safe is totally different than being safe, so you know, 1498 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:43,880 Speaker 2: feeling feeling like everything seems to be okay, let me 1499 01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:46,360 Speaker 2: go back to these clubs and all this shit. 1500 01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:48,400 Speaker 1: I ain't getting vaccinated though. 1501 01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:52,680 Speaker 2: Your feelings gonna get you killed, Your feelings gonna get 1502 01:07:52,680 --> 01:07:56,080 Speaker 2: you sick, get your people around you sick, and that's 1503 01:07:56,120 --> 01:08:00,960 Speaker 2: something you should be worried about, you know, I'm not, 1504 01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:03,880 Speaker 2: and I'm not a worried manger. Like someone brought up 1505 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 2: in the chat. You know, they found another variant. I 1506 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:08,040 Speaker 2: don't bring that up on the show that much because 1507 01:08:08,760 --> 01:08:12,000 Speaker 2: the variant stuff is mostly fear minoring. So far, they've 1508 01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:16,320 Speaker 2: shown that the vaccines respond to all the variants. So 1509 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:19,800 Speaker 2: at this point we're really doing something like you know, 1510 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 2: and they never and they never hit you back when 1511 01:08:22,880 --> 01:08:25,760 Speaker 2: they go, oh, actually it does respond they always they 1512 01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 2: always hit you with the first part was like, I don't. 1513 01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:33,000 Speaker 4: Know because, like I said, the way that they're monitoring it, 1514 01:08:33,120 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 4: like they stopped Johnson Johnson over like seven eight people 1515 01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:40,599 Speaker 4: getting blip shied. So trust if they had a varians 1516 01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:43,720 Speaker 4: that this wasn't working against you, it would be the 1517 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:44,559 Speaker 4: top story. 1518 01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,120 Speaker 2: Just well, I'm just saying it is the top story 1519 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:50,800 Speaker 2: before they know, right, and then when they find out, oh, 1520 01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:53,679 Speaker 2: actually it's not that bad, they never go, hey, guys, 1521 01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:55,719 Speaker 2: we just want to let you know that it does work. 1522 01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:56,439 Speaker 1: They do. 1523 01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:58,920 Speaker 2: You get that ship on the back page six months 1524 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:01,280 Speaker 2: later and it's like, well, everybody scared the ship, now 1525 01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:06,160 Speaker 2: you know what I mean.

Wow, hass off y'all did that, because that's 1622 01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:55,599 Speaker 2: not like a lot of other sets We're talking you got. 1623 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:56,880 Speaker 1: A guest's live. 1624 01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 2: It's you know, in per like they figured it out through. 1625 01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:05,640 Speaker 2: When you think about the beginning of the pandemic and 1626 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,160 Speaker 2: what they did with Zoom and then however, they created 1627 01:14:08,200 --> 01:14:10,880 Speaker 2: some bubble to do the season and they never had 1628 01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:12,000 Speaker 2: like a breakout or. 1629 01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:15,400 Speaker 1: You know anything. They did that thing good for y'all. 1630 01:14:17,640 --> 01:14:19,599 Speaker 2: All in our was an excellent finale that stepped They 1631 01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 2: stumbled this season even a few episodes ago. But last 1632 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:24,840 Speaker 2: week's KMK with some good bitch too. 1633 01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:27,320 Speaker 1: What do y'all think? I didn't watch it? 1634 01:14:27,439 --> 01:14:31,120 Speaker 2: Also, is this why people claim it isn't fun SNL 1635 01:14:31,200 --> 01:14:33,920 Speaker 2: isn't funny. Sure, there's missus, but I don't think it's 1636 01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 2: any worse than the golden eras of SNEL. Everyone claims 1637 01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:39,760 Speaker 2: they love the nineties and mid of two thousands. I 1638 01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:42,080 Speaker 2: wonder if it's because they've gotten diverse with the casting 1639 01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:43,880 Speaker 2: and writing and people don't like it. Hence that's why 1640 01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 2: it's not funny. I think it's just a thing that's 1641 01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:53,880 Speaker 2: nice to bag on because SNL is ubiquitous, and I 1642 01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:56,240 Speaker 2: think things that feel like and it is kind of 1643 01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:59,360 Speaker 2: an institution. It's like we get to talk shit about 1644 01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 2: those because they'll around whether we like him or not. 1645 01:15:01,680 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 2: So you know, S and L has been around forty 1646 01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:06,479 Speaker 2: something seasons or thirty something seasons, so it's like, yeah, 1647 01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 2: we're gonna talk shit about it.

In my opinion, Well, yeah, that's it. 1722 01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:48,880 Speaker 1: That's it right there, playil agreed, that is it. That's 1723 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:49,320 Speaker 1: the one. 1724 01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 2: They are scared as fuck, like everybody sitting at home 1725 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,759 Speaker 2: and just white people going there killing niggas like hotcakes. 1726 01:18:56,840 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 1: Yep. 1727 01:18:57,080 --> 01:18:58,720 Speaker 4: And this is another reason why they want people to 1728 01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:00,479 Speaker 4: go back to work too, because when you at home, 1729 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:02,639 Speaker 4: people are learning and they're educating themselves to stuff. 1730 01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:04,559 Speaker 3: They're like, no, no, no, we can't have you, no no. 1731 01:19:06,080 --> 01:19:07,840 Speaker 2: And I think they saw the power that shit in 1732 01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:10,200 Speaker 2: the vote and the fact that people are pushing back, 1733 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:15,240 Speaker 2: and I think ultimately they know sadly that white people 1734 01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:18,439 Speaker 2: can be put equally right back to sleep if you 1735 01:19:18,600 --> 01:19:22,240 Speaker 2: just have a willful enough push against them learning and go, hey, 1736 01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:25,080 Speaker 2: that's enough of this shit. It's like, all right, well 1737 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:27,360 Speaker 2: back to just living my normal life and acting like 1738 01:19:27,400 --> 01:19:30,599 Speaker 2: none of this shit happened. Here's the thing I've been 1739 01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:33,880 Speaker 2: thinking about though, and why uh, you know, I don't. 1740 01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:36,320 Speaker 2: I'm not a very optimistic. 1741 01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:40,320 Speaker 1: Person on this show. I feel like I'm realistic. 1742 01:19:40,439 --> 01:19:43,519 Speaker 2: Some people may feel I'm pessimistic, but I think I'm 1743 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:46,120 Speaker 2: being realistic. But let me tell you something that does 1744 01:19:46,160 --> 01:19:49,559 Speaker 2: give me a bit of hope and maybe maybe things 1745 01:19:49,560 --> 01:19:50,240 Speaker 2: will be better. 1746 01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:55,320 Speaker 1: Social media, social media. 1747 01:19:55,280 --> 01:20:02,120 Speaker 2: And u BIQ with this, this is offering a cultural 1748 01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:07,439 Speaker 2: form of education that is going beyond a classroom and. 1749 01:20:07,479 --> 01:20:12,639 Speaker 1: Is moving faster and bringing with it a sort of. 1750 01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:19,800 Speaker 2: Cultural social admonishment of people that are in the know, 1751 01:20:20,479 --> 01:20:24,920 Speaker 2: and so everybody's want to be like up on it 1752 01:20:24,960 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 2: is somehow helping to spread some of this shit, because 1753 01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:31,880 Speaker 2: I would if you look at what's happening in classrooms, 1754 01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:36,719 Speaker 2: none of the stuff that these white people, these races, 1755 01:20:36,880 --> 01:20:39,280 Speaker 2: these Republicans are trying to take out of the classroom, 1756 01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:41,720 Speaker 2: none of this stuff was taught to these kids in 1757 01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:46,320 Speaker 2: the classroom. That's what's so ironic. Everything against critical race 1758 01:20:46,360 --> 01:20:50,280 Speaker 2: theory is bullshit because they're all talking about critical race 1759 01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 2: theory in high school and junior high school, and we 1760 01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:55,240 Speaker 2: don't want little white kids to feel bad. That's not 1761 01:20:55,320 --> 01:20:57,519 Speaker 2: even where they teach critical race theory. They teach it 1762 01:20:57,560 --> 01:21:00,680 Speaker 2: in college. Now, colleges may end up being harmed by this, 1763 01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,960 Speaker 2: especially state schools, if they're passed these laws and somehow 1764 01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 2: it starts applying to colleges. 1765 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 1: I don't know what teachers are gonna do. 1766 01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:09,519 Speaker 2: That's gonna be a huge fight.

That is this racist 2118 01:39:55,120 --> 01:39:59,160 Speaker 2: white man essentially that he's now gone to that after 2119 01:39:59,200 --> 01:40:02,360 Speaker 2: life and he's an evil demon spirit and he haunts 2120 01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:05,880 Speaker 2: these black people. They and so you go through most 2121 01:40:05,920 --> 01:40:08,519 Speaker 2: of this series, I think till episode eight or nine, 2122 01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:12,519 Speaker 2: where you're kind of like, but what is going on 2123 01:40:12,600 --> 01:40:16,760 Speaker 2: in their house? Things are making to behave Strangely, you know, 2124 01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:19,400 Speaker 2: they're starting to act out in ways where it's just like, 2125 01:40:20,360 --> 01:40:22,800 Speaker 2: now they look like the crazy one. And you find 2126 01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:24,519 Speaker 2: out in one of the episodes they have, like a 2127 01:40:24,600 --> 01:40:28,800 Speaker 2: throwback episodes in Black and White, that's like, this is 2128 01:40:28,840 --> 01:40:34,519 Speaker 2: all because of a curse put upon black people from 2129 01:40:34,560 --> 01:40:39,599 Speaker 2: these evil ass white people. That is essentially the point 2130 01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:43,519 Speaker 2: of that curse is to break us, and it doesn't 2131 01:40:43,560 --> 01:40:47,439 Speaker 2: work unless they break us. And so you're dealing with 2132 01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:49,800 Speaker 2: years and years and years and decades and decades and 2133 01:40:49,800 --> 01:40:54,680 Speaker 2: decades of this pressure gaslighting us to break us to 2134 01:40:54,720 --> 01:40:59,120 Speaker 2: a point of giving up. And obviously some black people do, 2135 01:40:59,240 --> 01:41:02,320 Speaker 2: some black people back and all this stuff, but we 2136 01:41:02,360 --> 01:41:07,680 Speaker 2: still aren't broken to this day. And to see that 2137 01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:11,720 Speaker 2: fight in your ancestors on a psychological spiritual level, to me, 2138 01:41:11,840 --> 01:41:15,080 Speaker 2: that resonated, cause it was like that is it. That's 2139 01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:17,920 Speaker 2: the feeling when you wake up every day and you 2140 01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:20,479 Speaker 2: see they fucked somebody else up. You see and you're 2141 01:41:20,479 --> 01:41:21,400 Speaker 2: thinking to yourself, like. 2142 01:41:21,360 --> 01:41:24,519 Speaker 1: What the fuck is the point? What did we do? 2143 01:41:26,640 --> 01:41:29,320 Speaker 1: Why are we the monster here? You're the monster here? 2144 01:41:30,479 --> 01:41:32,880 Speaker 2: What belief system do you have to have to keep 2145 01:41:32,920 --> 01:41:36,720 Speaker 2: castigating us through all this? And this show felt like 2146 01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:42,720 Speaker 2: it gave me the feeling of like vindication, justification and explanation. 2147 01:41:43,280 --> 01:41:45,640 Speaker 1: Not to get to Jesse Jackson on y'all, but it 2148 01:41:45,760 --> 01:41:46,320 Speaker 1: gave me. 2149 01:41:47,040 --> 01:41:50,840 Speaker 2: It gave me that feeling, and to this moment, I 2150 01:41:50,880 --> 01:41:53,479 Speaker 2: still feel emotional talking about this show. 2151 01:41:53,520 --> 01:41:54,599 Speaker 1: It was really good. 2152 01:41:55,720 --> 01:41:57,679 Speaker 2: I think it was done a disservice by a lot 2153 01:41:57,680 --> 01:42:00,599 Speaker 2: of people who didn't want to even give it a chance. 2154 01:42:00,640 --> 01:42:00,840 Speaker 1: Man. 2155 01:42:00,920 --> 01:42:02,960 Speaker 2: I think if they say they don't see those things 2156 01:42:02,960 --> 01:42:05,200 Speaker 2: that I'm telling you in there, they're lying to your 2157 01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:08,400 Speaker 2: face and you shouldn't respect their opinion because then they 2158 01:42:08,600 --> 01:42:11,880 Speaker 2: either they don't understand allegory and an analysis or they're 2159 01:42:11,960 --> 01:42:17,040 Speaker 2: just plain out liars, And that's very fucked up. You 2160 01:42:17,040 --> 01:42:18,800 Speaker 2: don't have to watch it, but you don't need to 2161 01:42:18,840 --> 01:42:23,200 Speaker 2: lie about it, you know.
