Speaker 3: want to be like you.

21
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 5: Somebody just told her that. Somebody just told her that,

22
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 5: like like literally three minutes ago.

23
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 3: Well, God is trying to tell you something. I hear

24
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 3: you better receive it. Won't nobody ever do that to me.

25
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 3: I never get it, Like it was on my way

26
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 3: to tell you for me.

27
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 4: I remember your trends, not the trance but when you

28
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,840
Speaker 4: first stepped into the role on the show, right, and

29
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,039
Speaker 4: it was a lot going on and a lot said it,

30
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 4: but you handled it really gracefully.

31
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 3: When she.

32
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 4: Look at you, you know you have one support of you.

33
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 3: But there was a lot of conversation that was happening.

34
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 3: But the way that you handled it out, I thought

35
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 3: was you handled it very well. Thank you. You know

36
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 3: this season life is too short. You got you got

37
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 3: to know what energy you're walking in and create your

38
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 3: own energy. That's how it works. And it worked out

39
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 3: what set what life?

40
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: Uh?

41
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 3: Where in your life did you learn that? Because it

42
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 3: was loud? Yeah, but but I think from being on

43
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 3: the view, that's why I learned how to get the

44
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 3: criticism because I learned, you know, Joy Bayhart said, when

45
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 3: you you know, when you have this kind of platform,

46
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 3: when you open up your mouth, half the world is

47
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: going to hate you. So you know, so you stopped

48
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 3: trying to chase validation because I would go on this site.

49
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 3: It was a site called I Hate Talk Shows, and

50
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 3: I would going there to see what they said about me,

51
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: and then they would say, oh, Sheerry's doing this. She

52
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 3: didn't even mention this, So I would mention it the

53
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 3: next time they go. Did you see how conceited she

54
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 3: was when she mentioned this, you can't win? So I

55
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 3: don't is I stopped reading all that stuff? They don't

56
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 3: care about you, and so I stopped. But what I

57
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 3: realized is nobody's sending me money to take care of

58
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,079
Speaker 3: my son. Nobody is offering to help me when I'm

59
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 3: going through it. Nobody. You got your diehards that will

60
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 3: pray for you. So why am I listening to all

61
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 3: this is chatter from people who probably when they come

62
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 3: at you on social media, they want to do what

63
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 3: you're doing. They just don't want to put in that work.

64
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 3: That's what Kevin Hart says, and it's so true.

65
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 1: Have you heard that from Laura all right?

66
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 3: Because you never said that to me, Charlamage, I never

67
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 3: knew that was your You knew a lot of talk yet,

68
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 3: but you never said that.

69
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 1: But I'm the same way. I'm stop reading the comments,

70
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 1: Like why don't I don't.

71
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 3: Go looking for the comments? But no, I don't, But no,

72
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 3: I do not. But every now and then you want

73
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,519
Speaker 3: to see what people.

74
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 4: But I also like, for what I do, I have

75
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 4: to kind of know what people are talking about. Why

76
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 4: what are angles to care? How we dive in and

77
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 4: what I talk at them. But it's hard.

78
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 3: Now you just have to be discerning because I read

79
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 3: my comments because sometimes people are very they have really

80
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 3: good critique. Some people are commenting share you talk a

81
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 3: mile a minute. I can't understand what you're saying. So

82
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 3: I learned to slow down. Yes, then those people who go,

83
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 3: you ain't cute, you ain't got no hips, you ain't

84
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 3: got no or you're gonna you know, I don't pay

85
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 3: attention to that because you look at it for what

86
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 3: it is. You got to have your own self for it.

87
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 3: So you do when it's just discern what is edifying,

88
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 3: what is going to help you. The other stuff you

89
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 3: throw out, but it means nothing, even.

90
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 4: Your topics on your show, because that was another thing

91
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 4: as well too, Like people were upset when you talked

92
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 4: about Meg the stallion on the carpet and being you know,

93
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 4: nude or whatever you called her right, and people respond

94
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 4: to that and when that happens, Yeah, I changed.

95
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 3: You for that. When I said that about Meg, I

96
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 3: was ready for the backlash. But I am I'm a mum,

97
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 3: I'm a woman. I mentor girls, and I just go

98
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 3: at some point we have a responsibility. We have to

99
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 3: speak up. And I love meg da Stallion. I love it,

100
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: but I think that women are going too far and

101
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 3: sometimes we forget that there are people who are watching

102
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 3: us and they can't do what we do. They don't

103
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 3: have security. They can't walk around and say I want

104
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 3: to do the same thing. So we also we are

105
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 3: our brother's keeper. To who much is given, much is required.

106
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,040
Speaker 3: So I knew I was gonna backlash. They told me,

107
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 3: you know you're gonna get and I said, but no, no,

108
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 3: I got to stand up. I got this platform, and

109
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 3: it's really important that I say it. And if you

110
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 3: listen to the context of what I said, you know

111
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,320
Speaker 3: I did love everything. People look at you because you

112
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 3: have a degree. You went and graduated. You didn't just

113
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 3: let it go. So you inspire girls to want to

114
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 3: go to college. But also over here you inspire girls

115
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 3: who want to do this. And I named other women

116
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,040
Speaker 3: who do it too, so you know, you just got

117
00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,159
Speaker 3: to be I got this platform for a reason, know

118
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 3: what it is, and I try to use it wisely.

119
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: People should listen to the elders. What happened to that

120
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: we used.

121
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 3: To listen too. They don't do that now.

122
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 4: They're old, you know, the push back at you, like,

123
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 4: I know you're intentional with the topics that you choose

124
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 4: when you get pushbacks like oh, this is an age thing.

125
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 4: It's because you're older. She don't understand. She actly, she

126
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 4: didn't have her day like right, those type of things.

127
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 3: That I have a lot of grace. I know. You

128
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 3: know there were things that we did when we were young,

129
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 3: and you know and I do. But also you know

130
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 3: what the assignment is. There's an assignment on your life.

131
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 3: There's an assignment that you've been given and you got

132
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 3: to carry it out. And it's just stuff that comes

133
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 3: with this. With this, you know, position that you're in,

134
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 3: it is gonna come. You can't escape it.

135
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 1: That's right.

136
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 2: So just before we get into straw.

137
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 3: Before we're getting a straw.

138
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 2: When you came in there today, you said your son

139
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 2: just texted you and said, mom, I have off of

140
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 2: school today and I have nothing to do. That's right,

141
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 2: And he's twenty years old.

142
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,240
Speaker 5: Yes, that's not what she said. She had part that's

143
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 5: always get through what she really said.

144
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 2: But then you said that you're and also said he

145
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:02,239
Speaker 2: wants to smoke. He wants to smoke some marijuana.

146
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 3: So yes, because that's what all everybody talks about at school,

147
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 3: you know, they talk about that, and so he that's

148
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 3: one of his things. He came. I was doing my

149
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 3: podcast with Kim Whidley, two Funny Momas. He came. He

150
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 3: was like, I want to talk to you, and that's

151
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 3: what he was going to the basketball center and he said,

152
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 3: you know, when can I get hi?

153
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 2: First of all, it's amazing that he came to you

154
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 2: and feel comfortable again, Yeah, what did you tell him?

155
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 3: But he comes to me and I don't know nothing,

156
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 3: Like that's the problem. And he was just like I'm

157
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 3: a single mom. He was like, you know, I want

158
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 3: to when can I do this? And I was sitting

159
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 3: here praying and speaking in tongues, and I said, when

160
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 3: you twenty four? He asked me that when he was

161
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: like nineteen or eighteen. That's just the number that came

162
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 3: to my head, envy saying a mother like it's too much,

163
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 3: Like I still look at my son as like my baby,

164
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 3: a fourteen year old. So when he came and was

165
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 3: asking these questions about where, you know, when can you

166
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 3: go and see you know, women dancing and stuff, And

167
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 3: when I didn't know what Yes, so I said twenty four.

168
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 3: That's just the number. But it came to my head.

169
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,719
Speaker 3: So he you know, so he my my the person

170
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 3: who does my hair, theo. He has locks in his hair.

171
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 3: So when my son saw him, he said he immediately

172
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: said do you get high and stereotyping. But here's what happened.

173
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 3: They looked at him. It was like yeah, But so

174
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 3: I said, well, I wanted to have the experience of

175
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 3: I said, well, maybe if they put the medicine and

00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 3: make you go to the bathroom, the diarrhea medicine in

178
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 3: just have diarrhea. They don't want to do it again.

179
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 3: That's what everybody says, like you give him so much

180
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 3: liquor that they get sick.

181
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 5: No, give him some sativa, some high grade sativa.

182
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 3: And what is that?

183
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 5: What if the kind that induces panic attacks and makes him.

184
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: That will make him not want to do it again.

185
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 1: Not the diarrhea.

186
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,960

00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,600

00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 3: That's not my that's not my thing. I've made you

225
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,719
Speaker 3: look good in his eyes. Now it's up to you

226
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 3: to keep that going. That's not on me. I've never

227
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: talked about his father badly in front of him. Now.

228
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 3: When Jeffrey left the room, that was a different conversation.

229
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 3: It's a lot going on at one point. Yeah, so

230
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 3: but you know it's so this is on you.

231
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: Now.

232
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:53,840
Speaker 3: It's on you to talk to your dad. I'm not

233
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 3: in that.

234
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 4: What things do you deal with on your own with

235
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,559
Speaker 4: your son that you're like, man.

236
00:09:58,440 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 3: All of that trying to teach him how to be

237
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:00,840
Speaker 3: a man. I don't know how to be a man

238
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 3: because I'm not a man. I don't espouse that belief

239
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 3: of you know, I can be everything for you. You

240
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 3: don't need no daddy. You don't know you need a

241
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 3: man in your life. A boy needs a man, especially

242
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 3: in this day and age, A young black boy needs

243
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 3: a black man because men what they do to my

244
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:20,599
Speaker 3: son because I'm not allowed to say his name, he

245
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,360
Speaker 3: told me don't talk about him. But what they do

246
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 3: to my son is they say, look God, look me

247
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 3: in the eye, shake my hand, you know, give me

248
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 3: your deepest voice when you talk to me. I don't

249
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 3: know how to say that. What he gets from me

250
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 3: now is he's like you always, like you keep nagging

251
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,959
Speaker 3: because I feel like I only got maybe twelve minutes

252
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:39,960
Speaker 3: to give him the rest of life's lessons. And he's like,

253
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 3: you told me already. And so I think with mothers

254
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 3: and boys, as they get older, there's a frustration. That's

255
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 3: why they keep wanting to pull away. They're longing from

256
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 3: that male energy. So when he's around, when he's around

257
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,320
Speaker 3: my glam team, he likes being with them because they're

258
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 3: just men, are you dating? And I'm single. I'm single,

259
00:10:58,120 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 3: so I'm just I'm out here, I'm open.

260
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: I was crazy.

261
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 3: I never got my DM, so I don't. I really

262
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 3: don't go on my dms because the last time it

263
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 3: was somebody didn't have no finger, so it was missing

264
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 3: the third digit. So I don't what happened. Let me

265
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 3: tell you why not something that's a deal breaker when

266
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 3: you're missing digits. I need, I need you to have

267
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 3: a finger, no fingers, because it was in it. I

268
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 3: went to his uh, I went to his profile, and

269
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 3: I looked and he didn't have no finger, so which finger?

270
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 3: Though he was a third finger? Not that you don't

271
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 3: know if you really need your third finger til you

272
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: got your third finger.

273
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 5: What if this man was good looking, it was had

274
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 5: a nice career, was a great man, he was going

275
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:38,679
Speaker 5: to be the love of your life and you could

276
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 5: because you don't got a finger.

277
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:42,240
Speaker 3: You don't have a finger. That's just that's a big deal,

278
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: not having a finger, because you need all ten of

279
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 3: your fingers. I'm just saying, if you want to caress

280
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 3: my neck and you ain't got that finger, you feel

281
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 3: I feel emptiness. But on one hand, on it I

282
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 3: didn't you know. I guess I saw the finger was

283
00:11:55,760 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 3: missing Lauren. I just didn't stay. But it does that

284
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 3: you get in this season. It's it's different now. Now

285
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 3: I'm not looking at potential. When I was in my twenties,

286
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 3: it was about, oh he got he got potential. I

287
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 3: don't look at potentially. You have to have be living

288
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,080
Speaker 3: in your You have to be living your dream. It

289
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 3: has to be your reality. You have to be a

290
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 3: certain financial and a financial place because I'm not here

291
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 3: trying to help you move forward. So it just changes.

292
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 3: If I bring you into my space, you can't be intimidated.

293
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 3: You can't be like looking at it around, going well,

294
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 3: there's nothing I can do. So it just changes a

295
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 3: little bit.

296
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 2: So how was shooting straw I know you loved it?

297
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 2: Four days shooting your Brain?

298
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 3: No, I was six days.

299
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 2: He was six days.

300
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 3: She was doing Fight Night at the same time, and

301
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,839
Speaker 3: Tianna was also doing a movie at the same time. Look,

302
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 3: I was the only one I had time, so mine

303
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 3: was six days. I had I had a ball. It

304
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 3: was a different experience step into the Tyler Perry world

305
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 3: breaking death because I'm used to, you know, doing a

306
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 3: movie and it'll take weeks to do. You know, I'm

307
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,800
Speaker 3: on location for a number of weeks. So even when

308
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 3: Tyler had asked me and I wasn't available, I said,

309

311
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 3: for I need you for five days. And I had

312
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 3: never heard that before because it was I was one

313
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 3: of the stars of the movie. But with Tyler, he's

314
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 3: got a world that he lives in. He's really he

315
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,559
Speaker 3: knows what he wants. He has a lot of cameras

316
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 3: covering you. So when you go to a movie they

317
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,320
Speaker 3: do a master shot, you know, you go back and

318
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 3: you wait till they turn it around and do a

319
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 3: single shot. Then they got to turn those cameras around

320
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 3: and do the other shot. Then they got to get

321
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 3: a wide shot, then they got to get a close up,

322
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 3: and you're you're doing maybe three pages in a whole day.

323
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 3: Tyler does not do that. He has a ton of

324
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 3: cameras in and they they're catching shots. So when I'm

325
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,839
Speaker 3: looking at the movie, they caught shot. To me, I

326
00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 3: didn't even realize because it was so many cameras. So

327
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 3: he can do ten or twelve pages in a day.

328
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 3: But he knows what he wants and he gets it done.

329
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 1: And Tyler was a man of his word.

330
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 5: Because I remember y'all just had to be like maybe

331
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 5: four or five months ago, you was.

332
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 1: Asking him to put you in.

333
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 5: I don't know if it was a specific movie, or

334
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 5: was it why did I get married, or I just

335
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 5: remember you asking him to be in something.

336
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 3: I ask everybody who comes if they could put me

337
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 3: on something, he can put you in, and he put

338
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 3: me in the movie. He called me, he said I

339
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 3: have this part and I want you to do it.

340
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 3: And it conflicted with the talk show. You can't really

341
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 3: take off, but they moved and around. I said, I

342
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 3: don't care who sits in the chair. I need to

343
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 3: do this movie. And they we ended my show a

344
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 3: week early so I could go and do it.

345
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: Wow.

346
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 3: But when I let me tell you something about Tyler Perry.

347
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 3: He takes care of you. Now everybody talks about the

348
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 3: money he pays you. Yes, But in terms of I

349
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 3: walked into my trailer, you have to negotiate your trailer size.

350
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 3: From the front of everything is negotiation, and I always negotiate,

351
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 3: you know, I get the less one less of what

352
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 3: the star gets. So I get a big trailer, but

353
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 3: he I walked in my trailer and I said, it

354
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 3: is Brad Pitt doing the movie to you. I walked

355
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 3: in my trailer. It was a double staircase. I had

356
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 3: a kitchen. I had an office I had I had

357
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,120
Speaker 3: a full kitchen with I tried to I was like,

358
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 3: if I could take this refrigerator. It was a full

359
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 3: size refrigerator. It was a bedroom. It was a walk

360
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 3: in closet. It was I had a living room, a

361
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 3: family room, reclined. I was like, I cried, I've never

362
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 3: had in my wildest dreams, I never imagine said something

363
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 3: like that. You know where he put me up at,

364
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 3: where I stayed at night. It was just it was unbelievable.

365
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 3: It was unbelievable. When I tell you, I mean even

366
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 3: on my show. He came and we did a giveaway

367
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 3: show where Tyler Perry came in and he just gave

368
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 3: stuff away. He paid the mortgage off for one of

369
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 3: our guests. He gave a colleague of mine who's a

370
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 3: comic who had a stroke, Bonehampton. He was a Christian comic.

371
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 3: Now he's in a wheelchair. He gave him one hundred

372
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 3: thousand dollars so he could figure out. So he had

373
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 3: a cushion to figure out what he wanted to do.

374
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 3: I mean he gave, he just gave away. It was

375
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 3: really wonderful what he did. Did that public le Yes,

376
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 3: we did it on my show. Why are you thinking

377
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 3: you need one hundred thousand dollars show?

378
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: No, I just wouldn't want nobody to know that because

379
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: everybody be asking.

380
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's the down side.

381
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: But the beauty about Tyler he had no problem saying no.

382
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 3: He says, no, that's right because when I had to

383
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 3: pitch it to him, I would say to him, we

384
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 3: had this, and he goes, tell me what you're talking about. No, Like,

385
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 3: when you come to Tyler, it has to be very specific.

386
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 3: It has to be very well thought out, and you

387
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 3: have to have research. Because he says, okay, so if

388
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 3: I do this, then what about this? How are they

389
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 3: going to pay this? And I said, I don't know.

390
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 3: I'm just coming to you asking for the money. I

391
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 3: don't know all that. He goes, well, when you know what,

392
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 3: then you call me back. So he's you have to

393
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 3: be on your business.

394
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: Can you speak about that real quick?

395
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 5: You're how important is it to actually say what it

396
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 5: is you mean, because.

397
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: We live in a generation with these kids be like,

398
00:16:58,560 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: well you know what I meant to say?

399
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what I meant to say. I think

400
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 3: that we're in the age of communication is harder for

401
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 3: because we're in the social media age where you swipe

402
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 3: and swiping, so you're putting in initials for you know,

403
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 3: laugh out loud lol, So people you know you're not

404
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 3: saying what you mean. And I think it's a big problem.

405
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 3: I don't know how to fix it because I keep

406
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,440
Speaker 3: trying to talk to my nieces and nephews and say,

407
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 3: tell me what you're saying. Don't think I know what

408
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 3: you're saying. I don't know if it's a life lesson

409
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 3: that they have to go through because I had to

410
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,639
Speaker 3: go through to get it. Whoopie was very hard on

411
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 3: me on the view, tell me what you're saying, and

412
00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,880
Speaker 3: I had to figure out and articulate so that came.

413
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 3: That was hard for me. What was that like having

414
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: Whoopy be like, yoh, tell me what you're saying. Oh,

415
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,120
Speaker 3: she was hard on me. Whoopy was very, very hard,

416
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 3: but she loved me and she didn't want to see

417
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 3: me go through a lot of stuff which has served

418
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 3: me well doing having my own show and dealing with criticism,

419
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 3: being able to say no, I say what I mean

420
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 3: on my show. But I'm grown, you know. I think

421
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 3: that's why I got the success at this age, you know,

422
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 3: because I know how to stand up for myself. I

423
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:03,920
Speaker 3: know how to say no, I know how to say yes.

424
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 3: I know what I am bringing to the show and

425
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 3: what I want to see. So it's you know, sometimes

426
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 3: you just have to go through life. You got to fall,

427
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 3: and you gotta get You got to learn to get

428
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 3: back up. You gotta fall, you gotta learn to get

429
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 3: back up.

430
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 5: And I'm sure whoop, you saw the greatness in you.

431
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 5: Like a lot of times, people see things in you

432
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 5: that you may not see seeing yourself.

433
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 3: Sometimes, yeah, maybe she did. I would hope that. Yeah, yeah,

434
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:28,239
Speaker 3: I know we came a long way saying we came

460
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 3: men don't want to hear. And at this age, they

461
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 3: don't want to hear that you've been celibate for thirty years.

462
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 3: That's not nothing. If you and your twenties, men like

463
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 3: to hear that, oh you a virgin, Oh that is good.

00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 3: I've been celibate for the last twenty five years, waiting

466
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,040

00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 3: Fool's joke, and everybody believed it. But I cut it

472
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 3: short because I don't want to manifest that kind of thing.

473
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 3: If I told y'all I was pregnant right now, if

474
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 3: you had to report that, y'all would be laughing at me, wouldn't.

475
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,520

00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:34,560

00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 3: was fifty fifty five. No, I believe I don't want

480
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 3: to be dealing with you. I'm not dealing with a

481
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 3: two year old. At this sage. You have to have

482
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 3: the energy and the stamina and the patience you have

483
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 3: to go through when your child goes mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy,

484
00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 3: bo why but why but why? When they have temper tantrums,

485
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,200
Speaker 3: because they can't articulate. I don't have that kind of energy.

486
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 3: At nine o'clock, I'm winding down.

487
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: Well, I say, you look good. I'll be honest with you.

488
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 1: I didn't even know you was for detail. I looked

489
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:03,360
Speaker 1: it up just now.

490
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

491
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: I only looked it up because.

492
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 3: I said that. And I earn every one of these

493
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 3: stripes absolutely.

494
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: I don't know why I said it. Yesterday went to

495
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:12,240
Speaker 1: Rodger was here.

496
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 5: Why would you want a young girl when black women

497
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 5: age like this?

498
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: It don't make no sense to me.

499
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 3: I think though, a lot of younger men they do

500
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,480
Speaker 3: come to me because they do want an older, seasoned woman,

501
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,000
Speaker 3: because I think we know what we want. You know,

502
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 3: we don't take a lot of mess. We're very we're

503
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 3: very We're very articulate about what we want. We are accomplished.

504
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,400
Speaker 3: And I think a younger a lot of younger men

505
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 3: like that. But I don't see there are women that

506
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,199
Speaker 3: like younger men. I like a man my age. I

507
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,160
Speaker 3: like a man that is seasoned. We want the same

508
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,720
Speaker 3: things in life. He's healthy, we can talk about things.

509
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 3: If I say something, he knows who I'm talking about.

510
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 3: That's right, Like my my hair got THEO every time

511
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 3: we talk about stuff. He like, who is that? I said,

512
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 3: I said, somebody doing a tour. They're doing a tour.

513
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 3: It's El DeBarge, it's baby face, he said, who.

514
00:21:58,760 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 2: El de Barge?

515
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 3: He? Who is eld the bars. I need you to

516
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,200
Speaker 3: know who these people are and what they've done.

517
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 5: And I want older men to like older women because

518
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 5: we see what happens.

519
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,159
Speaker 3: And they get in trouble. That's the problem. But but

520
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,560
Speaker 3: I understand young young people bringing energy. They bring an

521
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,639
Speaker 3: energy into your life. I like, like, I would like

522
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,840
Speaker 3: to have a daughter so I could do a TikTok.

00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 3: it's that starts today. So I'm really open about showing

564
00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 3: that I go to the gym. I get up at

565

00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 3: I don't know who Na Along had me confused with?

621
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,879
Speaker 3: And what I appreciate, Lauren, this is why I love you.

622
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 3: You did your research, you did your homework, and you

623
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 3: pulled up a clip. The only time I've ever talked

624
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,639
Speaker 3: about Na Along is when she went through it with

625
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,919
Speaker 3: her partner who it was infidelity, and I supported her

626
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 3: and that she should she deserves to have a good

627
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,280
Speaker 3: man to be with her. And you pulled up that clip,

628
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 3: so thank you for that. You handle it very well.

629
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 3: So I have no idea. I think Neilon maybe confused.

630
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,360
Speaker 1: Me with someone not a lot of black women on TV,

631
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: so it's not I have.

632
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 3: No idea who she thought was shading her, but it

633
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 3: was not me. I have no beef with Nie Along.

634
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,120
Speaker 3: I'm a fan of hers with grown women. We're both

635
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,880
Speaker 3: the same age, so like we can discuss it. That's

636
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 3: why I invited her on my show, you know, And

637
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 3: a lot of people said, well, why would you say

638
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 3: something like that publicly? Well, number one, I did, never

639
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 3: said her name. There was a lot of women that

640
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 3: attended the Othello premiere, and number two I do. I'm

641
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 3: a stand up comic, so everything that happens in my

642
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 3: life is material for me and my stage. My comedy

643
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,320
Speaker 3: stage is the talk show. So I got on stage

644
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 3: and I just talked about it, and I said, you know,

645
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 3: it was a fun it was this happened. You wanted

646
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 3: to know why I went to the bathroom, because I said,

647
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 3: I went to the bathroom and had a meeting in

648
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 3: the ladies room. That was actually a joke with you know,

649
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 3: because Climax. This is why I don't give a younger man.

650
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 3: It was climax meeting in the ladies room. I'll be back,

651
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 3: and she says, don't. She said, don't test me because

652
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 3: I might slap you. Remember, you know a DJ god

653
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 3: don't know anybody, And so I did. I said the joke.

00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 3: Norman Baker, who's ahead of our hot topics. He was like,

655
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 3: that's funny. Everybody got it, and you over here go.

656
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 3: I don't understand why she went to the was waiting

657
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 3: in the bathroom. You and jes So that's what that was.

658
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 3: That was a joke. But yeah, but I don't have

659
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 3: any beef. I don't I don't like to tear down people.

660
00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 3: But I honestly was was just confused. And I also

661
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 3: don't like when you when you touch me and you

662
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:36,680

Speaker 2: I hate him? You know you shof by the way.

667
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 3: Never you know, but now I can't un see it.

668
00:28:57,960 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 3: This is why I tell women stop getting with stand up,

669
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 3: because you got to sit in bed and they go

670
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 3: over the same joke and punchline over and over, and

671
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 3: you got to hear that all night long. Charlamagne your wife, God,

672
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 3: bless her, Lord, open up doors for her, bless her.

673
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 3: Just bless her father, God.

674
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 2: It could be your darkest moment. You could be crying.

675
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 2: He's not gonna be sympathetic.

676
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: No, I am sympathetic. I just wanted to bring some joy.

677
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 3: That's a lot. No, But it's like, but when people

678
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 3: when people tugget you, when they want to picture and

679
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 3: they tugget you, it's like, so I'm still I think people,

680
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 3: I'm so nice, but you can't confuse that. I am

681
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,959
Speaker 3: a Chicago girl. So when that happens, you know, then

682
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 3: I go there. But you know, I'm cool. I'm so cool.

683
00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 3: It's done. If Nilon would love to come on my show,

684
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 3: I would love. I'm a fan, we're both actresses. I

685
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 3: would love to talk to her and just clear it up.

686
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:50,160
Speaker 3: That's such a That's why these beefs that come on

687
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 3: social media like it's easily cleared up.

688
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 5: So I would love suck and this young girl behavior

689
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 5: like I wonder, because she's been around for so long,

690
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 5: what could she think you her tone, I don't.

691
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,840
Speaker 3: Think it's younger behavior, charlamage. Sometimes you don't see a person,

692
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 3: you know, sometimes these things fester. This is what Woopy

693
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 3: told me, and this is why I'm very nice. On

694
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 3: my talk show. She said, we were about to do

695
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 3: a story. I wanted to do a story on the

696
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 3: view about a certain rapper. The baby mama was asking

697
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 3: for more money. Then something happened bad and I wanted

698
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 3: to blame it on this this rapper. And I said,

699
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 3: I want to talk about this, and Whoopy said, we're

700
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 3: not going to talk about it. And I said, no, no, no,

701
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 3: we got this platform and I'm gonna let people know.

702
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,840
Speaker 3: And she said no. So Barbara Walter said, if Whoope's

703
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 3: not going to talk about it, we're not going to

704
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,040
Speaker 3: talk about it. And I went into a whoopees room

705
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 3: and I said, why would you kill this story? It's

706
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 3: very interesting. Everybody knows the rapper. And she said, let

707
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 3: me tell you something to Sharry. She said, celebrities have

708
00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 3: long memories. And you know this, y'all know this. They

709
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 3: have long memories. You have a career beyond the show

710
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 3: and she said, and what will happen is you might

711
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 3: go to a club encounter this rapper. You are black women,

712
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,959
Speaker 3: we'd at least protect it. And if they get mad

713
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 3: at you want to do something, ain't nobody gonna do nothing.

714
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 3: Now if Elizabeth hasseback goes to the club because she

715
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 3: didn't say something and he does anything, everybody gonna be

716
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:12,960
Speaker 3: calling the police.

717
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 1: He ain't even gonna do nothing to.

718
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 3: Won't even do nothing to it. She said, you always

719
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 3: had to keep that in mind. And she said, and

720
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 3: you want to work beyond this show, because you're not

721
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 3: gonna be here for long. You're gonna be working. And

722
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 3: these and celebrities have very long memories, and you're in

723
00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 3: the business and your career is important. And I just

724
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 3: always remember that. And I'm a kind person. So when

725
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 3: I come at stories, Lauren always go is it edifying?

726
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 3: I would rather you be laughing with me, going that

727
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 3: girl is talking about me today. That is so funny

728
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 3: what she says, Rather than I'm too old to be

729
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 3: in the club and somebody comes up to me goes,

730
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 3: my name is Thunn Thun, And I don't you know

731
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,720
Speaker 3: I heard what you said. It ain't gonna be I'm

732
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 3: not gonna be having that, and you bet not. First

733
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 3: of all, I'm fifty, I don't even know who you are.

734
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 3: I don't remember what I said. And wait, does she

735
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 3: just slap me? I don't be fighting no more like that.

736
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 3: So you know, it's like life is too short. I

737
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 3: want to put out good energy on my show. I

738
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 3: want you to feel good. I want you to know

739
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 3: that when you come to the show is a safe space.

740
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 3: If you don't want to talk about something, there's a

741
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 3: ton of other stuff we can talk about. If you

742
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 3: want the shady stuff, it's a bunch of blogs you

743
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 3: can go to. And I think that people, even though

744
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 3: they like that, they turn on you quick. They turn

745
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 3: on you quick when you're always giving out bad stuff

746
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 3: and talking about people. I think I have more fans

747
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 3: that will stick with me if I go through something

748
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 3: then not. So that's just the way I operate, and

749
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 3: it has worked.

750
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,120
Speaker 1: I feel like God is talking through Did you.

751
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:43,240

Speaker 3: So when you're dealing with you understand. But there are

763
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 3: people who do that. I just think that you have

764
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 3: to go You're going to have to answer to what

765
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,760
Speaker 3: you put out in the world, right and sometimes stuff

766
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 3: your parents even say that. Sometimes stuff you can say it,

767
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 3: but do you need to say it?

768
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: Now?

769
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 3: That's not for everybody. I'm I'm not judging anybody. There

770
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 3: are blogs that I go to because I just got

771
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 3: to know what's going on, and they give their opinion

772
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 3: and I figure out how I'm going to form my opinion.

773
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 3: But in a different way. For me, I'm like, it's

774
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 3: going to edify you? Is it going to add to

775
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 3: your life? If it's not, then let's go to another one.

776
00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 3: But a lot of this stuff doesn't add to my life.

777
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,760
Speaker 3: Like a lot of this stuff is like their topics.

778
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:57,760
Speaker 3: There's conversation and then we move on. So where's that balance? Well,

779
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 3: what's your intention and what is your heart when you're

780
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 3: doing it? Like, you know, I got Didy jokes too.

781
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 3: Those I do on stage, I'm not gonna do him

782
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 3: on the talk show. So you know, I just think,

783
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 3: what what is your intention when you're saying it? So

784
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 3: I don't know if you're talking about the fact that

785
00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 3: you want to do negative stuff. You got to report the.

786
00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 4: News, That's what I'm saying. Like, sometimes you got to

787
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,000
Speaker 4: touch on things that people are not happy touching on.

788
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 3: But there are people who are intentionally mean about stuff.

789
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 3: There are people intentionally trying to take down folks. So

790
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 3: if you're not like that, but you have to report

791
00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 3: on the news. I don't have to do that a man.

792
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 5: If you hear about a man nothing and then the

793
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,000
Speaker 5: man taking the nuting and rubbing it on his nipple,

794
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 5: YEA heard that.

795
00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 3: The sperm shake. But but she's covering a trial. They

796
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 3: are trying to show character. They're trying so you have

797
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 3: to tell us what's going on. That is what they

798
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 3: discuss in the courtroom. Yes it's gross, but that's what

799
00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 3: they talked about. They put him on the witness stand,

800
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,760
Speaker 3: so you're just you're just telling that and giving your opinion.

801
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 3: This ain't nothing you said. Oh this is what I heard.

802
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 3: This is actual fact. If he was on the he

803
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 3: was on the witness stand, so you know, yes it was.

804
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 3: I was like, that's disgusting. But I never looked at

805
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 3: you like, oh, Lauren, why are you saying that the news?

806
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 3: But I mean, like even relationships stuff like the big

807
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:15,359
Speaker 3: celebrity breakups and the divorces and the you I think

808
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 3: you have to you know, you you have to report that.

809
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 3: I try to do it too, like the way I

810
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 3: come from with divorces. I'm upset because I looked at

811
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,320
Speaker 3: you know, there's I'm sad because they got divorced, and

812
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 3: then I have some jokes in there. I'm sad they

813
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 3: got divorced. But is he available now?

814
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 1: You know?

815
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 3: Do you mind if I got to bring some lightness

816
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 3: to it? Gotcha? But it is your job to report

817
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 3: what is going on. Otherwise we wouldn't know what.

818
00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 2: She hasn't been so much. I get the calls, Yeah,

819
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,439
Speaker 2: we did, We do numerous times.

820
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 3: Biggest conversation right now when breakups is CARDI b offset.

821
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 3: So when we're covering those things, it's very temperamental for

822
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,360
Speaker 3: the people that are going through and I try to

823
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 3: understand that.

824
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 4: But at the same time, it's like these things are

825
00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 4: put out there. Cardi's on spaces talking about it, there's tweets,

826
00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 4: there's all these things. So the balance sometimes and.

827
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 3: You're going to get it. You are going to get it.

828
00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,359
Speaker 3: I've seen people who come on the show who don't

829
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 3: want to know. Who was the one that didn't want

830
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 3: to talk to Jess when she was six? He read

831
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 3: I'm like, you know, and she's very, very sensitive, and

832
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 3: she had to say numerous times, I just have to

833
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 3: report it. I'm gonnam, this is what I do. We

834
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,319
Speaker 3: have to report it for them. I'm like, this comes

835
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 3: with the territory. People are going to report. That's why

836
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 3: I'm so private about my life, because otherwise people are

837
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 3: going to report on it.

838
00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,840
Speaker 2: It's just when people take sides though, right, because we don't.

839
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 3: Know all the facts, and they want to know why

840
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 3: you didn't say this because we only got three minutes

841
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,720
Speaker 3: and this is the information I was given you always

842
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 3: I have to say that too. People get mad at

843
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,400
Speaker 3: me and I go, I didn't know. I didn't know

844
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 3: that fact before. This is what we read and I'm

845
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 3: I have to comment on it.

846
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:45,399
Speaker 1: But what Sherry said is true.

847
00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 5: Intention matters, right, Like, yeah, Lauren, you know we would

848
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 5: have a dinner with the Wendy Williams.

849
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and this was how long ago? I don't remember that.

850
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 5: And Wendy said, verbatim, I think that I'm in the

851
00:36:58,320 --> 00:36:59,960
Speaker 5: space that I'm in now because.

852
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 1: Of how to talk about people.

853
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,120
Speaker 3: That's pretty powerful, that's what she says.

854
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 1: And she was like, well, I just was and we

855
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 1: don't even talk that.

856
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 5: She was like, I don't know, I just I just

857
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 5: think God, Like wow, for her to have that self awareness,

858
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 5: then I mean, now it's good.

859
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 3: But yes, and see, now here's the thing. No matter

860
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 3: what I say about Wendy, it'll be it'll be taken

861
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,320
Speaker 3: out of context. So I don't get upset because I

862
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 3: know my intention. I feel that's very powerful. And sometimes

863
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 3: we get in the season of our life we started

864
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 3: looking back over stuff and God is we're open more

865
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 3: to hearing God. The fact that she said that is

866
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 3: pretty deep because that means that at night she's been

867
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 3: laying there thinking about some stuff. Now, she has a

868
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 3: plethora of fans who if you if we said that,

869
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,400
Speaker 3: they'd be on us like on our asses about that.

870
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 3: But Wendy said that, and it was a deep you

871
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 3: can feel the sorry like I don't know, but maybe

872
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 3: I've never seen her like that, And I was like,

873
00:37:58,160 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 3: oh wow, I don't want to end up like that.

874
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 3: And I would say this sometimes when you I remember

875
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 3: my girlfriend said one time she didn't let The Real

876
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 3: Housewives be played in her house. Her kids liked it,

877
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,960
Speaker 3: and she said, I don't want that energy in my

878
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 3: house of always arguing people now with a man they do,

879
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 3: because I don't want that any kind of seeds to

880
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 3: be planet of energy in my house and I'm arguing

881
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 3: with my friends, and so she wouldn't. So I feel

882
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 3: like sometimes when you're in negative space all the time,

883
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 3: negative energy seems define you. That's like how it is

884
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 3: with Straw. It's the same thing with Straw. Like this girl, Taraji,

885
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 3: her character, it was always negative stuff. And so everything

886
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 3: you see these people that can't catch a break, they're

887
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 3: always it's always something negative finds you because you're in

888
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 3: such a negative space. So I think you have to

889
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 3: look at that when I say, is it edifying how

890
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 3: you were reporting the news? That's what you're doing. But

891
00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,799
Speaker 3: when you know when you start to veer over into

892
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 3: the shady, the mean, the shady Charlotte may when you

893
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 3: veer over into that space. Because God get on me

894
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 3: all the time. I'll veer over and He'll go stop stop,

895
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:06,800
Speaker 3: and I'm like, ah, but it's funny. Yeah, but it

896
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,160
Speaker 3: ain't from me. You know now, I'm not gonna open

897
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 3: up a Bible and do malla co icept.

898
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:10,960
Speaker 1: No.

899
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 3: I'm funny. I do dirty jokes. I talk about people.

900
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 3: But I can feel when I'm veering over into the

901
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 3: I know you got to go your character instro you

902
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 3: brought back up.

903
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:22,239
Speaker 4: It's such it because we're talking about women in all

904
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 4: these spaces, right, Your character is such an advocate for

905
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 4: black women in distress.

906
00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 3: Yes, in real life. Where does that come from for you?

907
00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:33,399
Speaker 3: You know what I just I'm I feel for women

908
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,359
Speaker 3: who go I don't get along with other women because

909
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 3: they treacherous. They this that's what you're draw into your life.

910
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,000
Speaker 3: I'm a big believer. Way you speak is what comes

911
00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 3: to you. And we cannot exist without other women. We

912
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 3: really cannot. Like our strength comes from women. We change

913
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 3: the world. I know when I was going through my

914
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 3: worst moments, when I would be on the floor crying.

915
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:56,719
Speaker 3: It would be my girlfriends that would pick me up

916
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,880
Speaker 3: and hold me like I Just who would encourage me,

917
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 3: who challenge me, who get on me? Is women. So

918
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 3: if you don't have a good, good female friends in

919
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 3: your life and you think they treacherous and you think

920
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 3: they trying to get your man, then you need to

921
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 3: let them go. And also you need to look at

922
00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 3: yourself because what is that saying? Show me the four

923
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 3: people you hang out with, and I'll show you who

924
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 3: you are. So if you feel that all the women

925
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,920
Speaker 3: in your life are treacherous, then what are you? Who

926
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 3: are you?

927
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:23,560
Speaker 5: So?

928
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 3: I just think that women we have to we have

929
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,440
Speaker 3: to galvanize because young girls. I have a heart for

930
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 3: young women. They don't have these they don't have enough

931
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 3: role models, and they are looking to us to figure out.

932
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 3: We have coping mechanisms all this stuff that's happening politically adults,

933
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,800
Speaker 3: we barely have coping mechanisms. Think about these kids that

934
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 3: are out there. They got nothing, So they need to

935
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,640
Speaker 3: see positive women in what they are doing. We need

936
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,840
Speaker 3: more women like you, We need more women like me,

937
00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 3: We need more women who are We need more women

938
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 3: like Megs the stallion who says, I'm gonna go to college. Yes,

939
00:40:57,080 --> 00:40:59,120
Speaker 3: I got this, but I'm gonna give my education because

940
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 3: I know I'm gonna make a differ with this thing

941
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,880
Speaker 3: behind me, this piece of paper. And they wanted they

942
00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 3: want to go to they want to go to college.

943
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 3: When I looked at a different world, I wanted to

944
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 3: go to college. So I think that we have to

945
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 3: really reach back and health these young ones like y'all

946
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 3: have to reach back. There's no reason why y'all have

947
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 3: not reached out and said, can free come and help?

948
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 3: Say his name, Oh damn it, my son. Okay, I

949
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 3: would like him too. He needs he needs an intern.

950
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 3: Perhaps he needs the intern. I need somebody to help.

951
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 3: That's what he needs to do. Intern, because you know

952
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 3: he's on he's on the spectrum, and so it just

953
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,360
Speaker 3: he needs some black men in his life to you know.

954
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 3: He tell I had to teach him to take the

955
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 3: train by himself. I deal with people way different than

956
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,960
Speaker 3: a man, would you know. So I tell I tell him,

957
00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:45,680
Speaker 3: when you're on the train and somebody says something crazy,

958
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:47,759
Speaker 3: just get up and move. Maybe you might tell him

959
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 3: something different. I tell him, if the police say this,

960
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 3: do this, And he said, Mom, They're not going to

961
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 3: say that to me. I don't know what to say

962
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:54,920
Speaker 3: to him when he goes. They're not going to say

963
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,799
Speaker 3: he's manifesting great stuff, that that's not going to happen.

964
00:41:58,160 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 3: But you might say something different.

965
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 5: That is the hardest thing raising kids, because you don't

966
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,320
Speaker 5: want to put that on them. If they feel that

967
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 5: way and they have that positive energy, you don't want

968
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 5: to take that away from them.

969
00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 1: But you still want them to deal with the reality.

970
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,120
Speaker 3: Absolutely they have to deal with. But my reality and

971
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:14,640
Speaker 3: the way I'm a nurturer, maybe he shouldn't be a nurturer.

972
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 3: I'm a protector, you know, I'm a Look. Look, if

973
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 3: somebody mess with you, run, if a girl messed with you, run.

974
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,000
Speaker 3: You know, maybe he's not supposed to do that. You

975
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,760
Speaker 3: might have different advice for him. You know. He obviously

976
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 3: would talk to y'all more about brownies and all of

977
00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 3: that other stuff. He found a site to sell them

978
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 3: seven ninety nine, so y'all can tell him something different.

979
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,719
Speaker 3: I didn't know what to say. He submitted, Lincoln, everything.

980
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 2: You owns part of a dispensary to please don't tell

981
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 2: him that.

982
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,840
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna give him nothing. Give him to you

983
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:44,759
Speaker 1: and you can have them.

984
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,320
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I do want to end with this

985
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:48,720
Speaker 5: last question, miss Shepard, because you have been in here preaching.

986
00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you do not know how God has been

987
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: talking through you.

988
00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 3: Wow over that.

989
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,399
Speaker 5: Now, there is a generation of women watching your show

990
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,879
Speaker 5: who feels seen and heard. So what do you want

991
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 5: to share his show to represent in this messy meme

992
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 5: driven media landscape.

993
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 3: I want I want the young brown girls to look

994
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 3: at me and say, it's possible I can do that.

995
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,719
Speaker 3: I think you got three shows out with three black

996
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 3: women running them. I don't know if you're gonna see

997
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:18,320
Speaker 3: that again in this temperature, but I want them to

998
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 3: be able to look at us, look at me, and

999
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:24,800
Speaker 3: say I can do it. You know, That's why representation matters.

1000
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 3: People keep saying no no, we all won no no no.

1001
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:31,520
Speaker 3: I saw Oprah Winfrey doing it and she looked like me.

1002
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 3: We had the same kind of hair, sayings the wig.

1003
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,320
Speaker 3: We had the same kind of hair, her skin color.

1004
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 3: I saw Stephanie Mills and in the Whiz and I said,

1005
00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,440
Speaker 3: I want to do that. It matters. And so when

1006
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:45,839
Speaker 3: little girls look at me and they come and see

1007
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 3: me and they call me untie, I'm like, yes, you

1008
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 3: can do this. There's a space for you. I want

1009
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 3: you to feel like there's a space. I want you

1010
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 3: to I want you to come up to me and

1011
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,280
Speaker 3: ask me for advice. I want you to get ready

1012
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 3: because it's there for the taking. The money is here,

1013
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,279
Speaker 3: the you just gotta be ready. So that's what I

1014
00:44:05,400 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 3: want to impart. It's doable, it really truly is. But

1015
00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 3: you gotta do the work. So I think a lot

1016
00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 3: of social media people, it comes to them so fast

1017
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,800
Speaker 3: and when the crash comes, they're not able to rebound,

1018
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 3: you know, So put in, put in the work, and

1019
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 3: it's it'll happen.
