Welcome home everyone. We are thrilled to be 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: with you here. They'll to be with you today. We 10 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: are talking about what are we talking about again? 11 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 6: We're talking about So this week on the podcast, Angela 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 6: was incensed because Fox News ran a story Surprise Surprise, 13 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 6: that was misrepresenting what happened at the State of the 14 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,559 Speaker 6: People tour, and she was getting upset about it, and 15 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 6: I'm like, who cares, Like, ninety four percent of their 16 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 6: audience is white, they're conservative people, and she's like, but 17 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 6: they get all the numbers. So that got into a 18 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 6: conversation should we care about what they're thinking, what they're doing? 19 00:00:55,640 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 6: And Angela brought up the point that sometimes our black outlets, 20 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 6: mainly social media, will take a story from Fox News 21 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 6: and use their language and everything and run it, which 22 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 6: again they depend on y'all to do. So I just thought, Oh, 23 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 6: that's a good conversation. One do we same on the 24 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 6: outlets that do that because y'all are part of the problem. 25 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 6: Maybe y'all don't know any better. But also, should we 26 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 6: care what white folks think? Should we be talking to 27 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 6: white people? And should we care what they think? That's 28 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 6: the question on the table. I got my thoughts, but 29 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 6: I'll let you you say yes, Andrew. 30 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 4: Should we care what white people think? 31 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 7: Yeah? 32 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 3: And should we care what they watch because it shapes 33 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,320 Speaker 3: how they feel and then how they move and how they. 34 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 4: Act, and because that can impact us. Yeah, I do care. 35 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 3: Now, now I don't. I don't make it. So I'll 36 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 3: give you this example. Miss, what is it most wanted America? 37 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 3: Most wanted? 38 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 4: I don't know what. 39 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 3: I was, because I'm liable to say a lot other 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: different things, right, But but I would I would get 41 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 3: really upset in my local paper because they would put 42 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 3: pictures of last night's arrest and it almost always seemed 43 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 3: to be like just a parade of black faces. And 44 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 3: maybe I just only saw the faces that were black, 45 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 3: I don't know, but it was really pronounced to me, 46 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 3: and the cop shows that all the run in is 47 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 3: happen to always be with black people. 48 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 4: And I'm thinking white people know where you know, create crime. 49 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 4: They don't do any crimes. And that that. 50 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 3: And we wonder why people clutch their purse, you know, 51 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 3: when a black man is approaching or walking past. Now, 52 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 3: my wife is great because she does the exact opposite, right, 53 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 3: like she sees somebody, she's grabbing her person, hitting the 54 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 3: alarm on the car to say, you know, you're not 55 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 3: safe as far as I'm concerned. But that stuff starts 56 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 3: to shat, imagery begins to shape exactly how we are 57 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 3: perceived and how we get interacted with. When when their 58 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 3: excuse for every black person who has a job of 59 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 3: any import is that they got it because they were 60 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 3: black and. 61 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 4: Mildly qualified, but not all the way. 62 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 3: That's because it's being shaped by a whole narrative that 63 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 3: they're being fed day in and day out. That says 64 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 3: a thing, now, mind you, I think it undergirds what 65 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 3: they probably, you know, at a very base level level think. 66 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 3: But nonetheless, if we don't have disruptors to that, if 67 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 3: there is never a counter narrative, then we got a 68 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 3: whole bunch of folks out here walking around with a bowl, 69 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 3: you know, a big old bag of falsehoods as a 70 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 3: lens by which we get viewed through. We can't help 71 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 3: it always, y'all. In fact, I think we can help 72 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 3: it very little, but that doesn't mean we. 73 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 4: Don't try well. 74 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: And this is the thing, right, I like, I think 75 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: Tif and I have talked about this. Tiff used to 76 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 1: go on Fox News, and so, Tiff, I'm actually curious 77 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: for you what changed in your thinking because there was 78 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: a point where you were like, Oh, I'm gonna go 79 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: on here and least at least and maybe I'm projecting, 80 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: but I'm thinking you're like, I'm gonna go out here 81 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: and make sure there's somebody on here telling y' all 82 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: the truth and versus now where you like, forget you 83 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: hoes not hosts. 84 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, so nothing changed I did. I used to 85 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 6: do Fox News twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen. I used to 86 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 6: do Harris Faulkner her show and maybe some maybe some 87 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 6: other shows. I would be honest why I went on 88 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 6: those shows. I don't want to say our friend who 89 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 6: gets mad every time I mentioned his name on air, 90 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 6: but uh, I'm saying it. Albert he was. But it 91 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 6: was great training ground because I had been a producer, 92 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 6: executive producer all that before, but being on camera and 93 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 6: so he would antagonize me and interrupt me, and be 94 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 6: nasty to me and rude to me, and you know, 95 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 6: poke holes at every point I made, and just be 96 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 6: obnoxious because his point was if you can handle that, 97 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 6: He would prepare people on Capitol Hill, like the Benghazi 98 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 6: hearings like that was in his work portfolio, so he 99 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 6: would handle me the same way. And his point is 100 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 6: if you can handle that, then you should be able 101 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 6: to handle any platform. And so he thought, like you 102 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 6: should go on Fox News and do some of their programming. Now, 103 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 6: I will say that was like right at the beginning 104 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 6: of the Trump administration, and my ignorance and perhaps a 105 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 6: little bit of naivete at that time is I did 106 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 6: not know how bad things would get. I thought that 107 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 6: there would be a time where we could all at 108 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 6: least agree on basic facts. And at that time I 109 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 6: did not look at, or view or experience Fox News 110 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 6: as the danger that they are now. They were always just, 111 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 6: you know, a problematic network and you know, right wing network. 112 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 6: But I do think they shifted as they got emboldened 113 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 6: during the Trump administration to something that I couldn't do. 114 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 6: So I did it a few times, and I stopped 115 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 6: doing it, and I will say Harris Faulkner took me 116 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 6: to lunch because I refuse to do the network after 117 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 6: like maybe five appearances, because every time I did it, 118 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 6: I would be flooded with very specific death threats and 119 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 6: not just like you know, I always call it a niggers, 120 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 6: I'm gonna kill you nigger. Even some of the emails 121 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 6: were like America's not racist. 122 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 5: For sure, for sure, but you convinced me. 123 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 6: You convinced me, But. 124 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 5: They're not racist, you dumb. I mean they literally you 125 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 5: get off. 126 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: But your brain is smaller, like they literally they love 127 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: to send over like, oh, but you're not racist. 128 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 6: Just starting specific in the sense of like I'm going 129 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 6: to rape you or I'm gonna watch you get raped 130 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 6: and just things. And then they started not only attacking me, 131 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 6: but anybody who followed me. You know, this is when 132 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,799 Speaker 6: I was like so active on Facebook, and they would 133 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 6: like go on my mom's page, my friend page, and 134 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 6: it just didn't seem like a good use of time. 135 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 6: So that's my own journey. But I think in terms 136 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 6: of viewership, you know, some people say like, oh, we've 137 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 6: got to know what both sides are thinking, and you know, 138 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 6: I just wonder. Sometimes when we give oxygen to something, 139 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 6: we make it bigger than what it is. And so 140 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 6: if you know, if one person is screaming in the 141 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 6: air on Fox News that you know Tiffany Crosses, like 142 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 6: you know Tiffany cross is running holes on K Street. 143 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 6: You know, Like I don't know how many people, Well 144 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 6: you brought up. 145 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 3: You brought it up, sir and alone, and I said 146 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 3: host in the audio back. 147 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 6: But it's like, yes, be sure to you get to 148 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 6: understand the the whole perspective. 149 00:07:53,400 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 1: Of the whole, the whole perspective, the whole entire and 150 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: Andrew is silent and Fox News just carry right. 151 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 6: So I don't know, I like I do think sometimes 152 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 6: when you give things oxygen, it becomes bigger, like you're 153 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 6: introducing it and it's like people you're looking at a 154 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,239 Speaker 6: car wreck, and it's like, stop looking at it, Stop 155 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 6: giving them our eyes, stop giving them our viewership, stop 156 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 6: giving them free promo. 157 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 5: But I you know, Andrew, what you. 158 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 4: Said is kind of said that they're going to run 159 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 4: it on rotation anyway. 160 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 6: But what you said is like what we kind of 161 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 6: have to care about what they're thinking about, because that's 162 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 6: going to inform how they feel, So maybe yes, which 163 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 6: is which is? And that can be dangerous to our 164 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 6: physical person. It can be our violence to our physical person. 165 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 6: It can be structural violence to our lives. So I 166 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 6: get that point. So maybe I should adjust that and 167 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 6: say I don't care about foxes, like I don't want 168 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 6: to subject myself to seeing those things, because, like Angela, 169 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 6: the re action, like your visible reaction to seeing it 170 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 6: is how I feel inside.

And right now, 285 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 4: in every way, shape and form, society reinforces that your 286 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 4: approximation and proximity to whiteness, if you can claim it, 287 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 4: will bring you greater access, more power, more money, more 288 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 4: ways to maneuver in society than being with that group. 289 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 3: And I just think at every level it has to 290 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 3: be disrupted. It's one of the things I wanted to 291 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 3: ask the mayor, but I know we had a lot 292 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 3: to try to get to cover. Is he's got a 293 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 3: large Hispanic population that he's got to appeal to the 294 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 3: in the state as he faces a general election. And 295 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 3: as you know very intimately, Angela and and TIF peripherally 296 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 3: peripherally for you, is that certainly in a state like Florida, 297 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 3: the ways in which you are going to talk about 298 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 3: a detention facility that may be illegally housing those who 299 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 3: don't have proper paperwork in this country is going to 300 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: land differently. Talking to Hispanics or folks from Latin American 301 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 3: countries here, then maybe it will in New Jersey because 302 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 3: they don't want to be approximate to an immigrant who 303 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 3: is he or without papers. 304 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 4: And we got to get yousolation. It wants to be 305 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 4: close to those who would be. 306 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 3: Enforcing the laws against people who are here without papers. Yeah, 307 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 3: so I just I think it's a difficult formula. But 308 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 3: I do think on the base at the most basic level, 309 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 3: when we have to ask ourselves these questions, why aren't 310 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 3: we in greater coalition, we are dealing with the same stuff. 311 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 3: They want both of us down under their under their 312 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 3: knee at every you know, at every competition. 313 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 6: And you got to consider New yor Riecans. Puerto Ricans 314 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 6: in New York are different than Cubans in Florida are different. 315 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 4: Multiple generations in Cary. 316 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 6: Is different than Mexicans in la like there are. So 317 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 6: you have to disaggregate this. Because the white man came 318 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 6: along and say, okay, we call on y' all Hispanics, 319 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 6: that doesn't mean that this is all the same group 320 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 6: of people. So we just I don't know, I'm concerned 321 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 6: about about our ours. 322 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 4: They incentivized toward the same outcome. 323 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: I wanted to tell y'all since we were supposed to 324 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: be talking about press a little bit, I just want 325 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: to say one thing that I have been really shocked 326 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: to hear consistently is how many people tune into our 327 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 1: podcast to get correct political information and marching orders about 328 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: what to do next. And I think that's really anyway. 329 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: I thought we were in the clear. I thought we 330 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 1: were in the freak. I thought we were in the clear. No, what's. 331 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 5: We'll do it live. We'll do it. 332 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 4: Livetering off the tracks. 333 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: Almost underground or overground round right if there wasn't tracks, 334 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: lest am I right? 335 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 6: Drama about that made a plaint about how like people 336 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 6: tune into us and on legacy media, mainstream media.
