Speaker 1: it absolutely is. How you fair out there? I feel blessed,

16
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: Black and Holly favorite. What about you? Yes? I feel amazing.

17
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: I feel great. You know, I'm a big fan of Brooklyn,

18
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,119
Speaker 1: where I'm from, where I still live. But what I'm

19
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: about to say will make people never want to move

20
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: to Brooklyn. But this morning was rough. I have to

21
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: first of all, today is one of the worst days

22
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: I had to park like three blocks for my house

23
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,520
Speaker 1: because I got home late last night. There's no parking

24
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: on the street, and it's not like we have driveways.

25
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 1: You're nervous walking three blocks away from your house and

26
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 1: you gotta walk to the crier bikes all no, no,

27
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: not a name, Okay, no. But the worst part is

28
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 1: going in the morning. And I don't be scared of people.

29
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: I'd be scared of rats. And today was garbage pickup day,

30
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,520
Speaker 1: and so that's always a scary time to be walking

31
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: in the dark when no one's outside to your car.

32
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: I'm more scared of that than anything you got pepper sprayed,

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: mace or something like that. But the rats for people,

34
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: I just told you when I'm more scared of I'm

35
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: just saying. But I do still love Brooklyn. But I

36
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: know it's not attractive to hear that. But yes, there's

37
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: a lot of rats on the street on garbage pickup day.

38
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: Did y'all see is supposed to snow here in the

39
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: Try State on Wednesday? Y'all see? People in Miami don't care.

40
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: People in Miami, Like, that's why I need to move

41
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: the floor to people in Miami. They have to care.

42
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: The reason I say that it's because of my cars.

43
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 1: They have to care because of your cars, because of

44
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: your car Showy Cotely, my car show. I got all

45
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: these cars going down, almost missed the truck, so because

46
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:17,799
Speaker 1: the truck was supposed to pick up on Wednesday. But

47
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: of course we can't get it through these snows. So

48
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: we have to actually start packing them and loading them

49
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: today and tomorrow. I mean, we were carrying like forty

50
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: cars down there for the car show for people kids

51
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: five and under a free so we're trying to put

52
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: on the show. We sold thousands and thousands of tickets

53
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: and I didn't want to cancel because of the snow.

54
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, and people lost them. My friend from Miami

55
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: staying with me right now. People love snow. They do

56
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: because look, she's from Miami and she doesn't get to

57
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: see snow. So she's like, I hope it snows while

58
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: I'm here because I never get to see that in Miami.

59
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: Snow is like grandkids. Snow is like grandkids. You love them,

00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: the decoy miner on Grinder that's a dating app for gay,

125
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: by trans and queer people. They exchanged pictures and Katupo

126
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: told the decoy his name was Jeff and then allegedly

127
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: gave his address in order to have sex with the

128
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: alleged fifteen year old boy, according to seeing this review

129
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: of the log, So they actually have posted the conversation

130
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 1: that they had and it's pretty I'll tell you one thing.

131
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: The catch the Catcher Predator clearly isn't as sophisticated as

132
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: it once was with all that scream and Chris Hansen

133
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: used to be way more calm when he used to

134
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: catch the pedophile some cookies. Of course he can get

135
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 1: arrested for that, right. What would he be charged with?

136
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 1: Could he be talking about he's a pedophile? Envy? What

137
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: are you talking about? What would he beach? Because I

138
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: don't I don't know what the charge is because you

139
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: know he was caught about to do the act, you

140
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: know what I mean? So I don't know what the

141
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: charges are, right well, listen, the thing is that they

142
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: did exchange pictures, right allegedly, and then they have and

143
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: then they have the conversation. The decoy is saying, I'm

144
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: finally fifteen, l ol. I think we talked before. So

145
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: even the idea that you're going to meet with a

146
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: fifteen year old somebody you think is a fifteen year old,

147
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: and then he says, are you really fifteen? And then

148
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: he said, I just turned fifteen two weeks ago? And well,

149
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: what was the charge on the ketchup predator? Because they

150
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: used to get arrested. I mean, there's no charge. You

151
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: can't like, what's the charge? Is the attempt? Is it?

152
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 1: You know? I'm just curious. I forgot what the actual

153
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,160

Speaker 1: like we gonna like your your Fox's gonna be away

197
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: for a little bit because I did a son. I

00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 1: did a son too, Like I get my son and

199
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: I get his son. Because you know, it's it's a situation.

200
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 1: You're a good as friend, bro, you're a good friend.

201
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: Where you from? So where's he gonna where's he going

202
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:04,199
Speaker 1: when he goes away? He's going to rehab or what's happening? No, Like, well,

203
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:05,719
Speaker 1: when he go away? I mean, well, we're trying to

204
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: get him to rehab now, and you know he gets defensive,

205
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 1: like his mother says something to him and then he

206
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: gets defensive. Then he leaves the house and then like

207
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: he'll have him stunts. So when we get like that,

208
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: like you never really know when he's gonna how he

209
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: gonna act like he's working all week. He just lost

210
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: his job. So now I'm like, come on fire, like

211
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,559
Speaker 1: you're in a situation. I can't I can't keep helping

212
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 1: you what like this? Yeah, because then that kind of

213
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,599
Speaker 1: enables somebody when they know that you're always going to

214
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,839
Speaker 1: help them out. But no, no no, he said, he's moody

215
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: sometimes around his kids. Sometimes the mood when you know

216
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: his mood changes when the day changes. You don't want

217
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: him to have a nasty or bad mood and he

218
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: takes that out on his son or your son. So

219
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I would say, try to get him as

220
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,160
Speaker 1: help as possible. I don't even know which way to

221
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: guide you and send you, but it seems like he

222
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: needs help. But I would be very very careful with him,

223
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,320
Speaker 1: you know, in the crib with with the kids. Oh yeah, no, no, no,

224
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 1: that when he when I don't that's that situation that

225
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 1: I keep away like I don't like your keeper. I

226
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,959
Speaker 1: like to like kind of when we with the son.

227
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, it's always if he with

228
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: his son, I'm with him with like that. But good,

229
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: I brought him to the car sho, I brought him

230
00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: to your coho the whole thing. I brought him his

231
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: son and all that. Well, I would now it's a situation,

232
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,679
Speaker 1: I would definitely suggest that you hit up a place

233
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: that that specializes in addiction treatment to get advice from

234
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 1: them on how you should handle something like this, because

235
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,079
Speaker 1: they can give you the proper resources. You know, It's

236
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 1: one thing to want to help somebody, it's another thing

237
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: whether you can point them to someplace that they can

238
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: actually tangibly go to get help. Now they saying, I

239
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: think in Jersey you can't. You can't like um, not

240
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,959
Speaker 1: force them, but like leat them in there like that

241
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: You're going somewhere they got they gotta do a big jump. No, absolutely,

242
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is you can call like the

243
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 1: National Helpline for Substance Abuse and talk to them and

244
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 1: they can let you know what are some things that

245
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: you can do in a situation like this to try

246
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: to help, and then you can also say, look, you

247
00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 1: need help. Here's a place that I think I would

248
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,839
Speaker 1: commend for you to go to. And they can also

249
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 1: give you more ideas and how you can convince somebody

250
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: to go get treatment. Yeah, because if you don't, he's

251
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: gonna end up in one of those uh those abandoned homes,

252
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 1: you know, doing drugs by himself. And and you don't

253
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: doubt ye getting hotels and getting rooms just to get high.

254
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 1: Like cool man, it's killing me. It's killing me inside.

255
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: But it's an addiction though, and and a lot of

256
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 1: times people can't control it, so it is an addiction. Bro.

298
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 1: my point is the story you guys were talking about

299
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: with like the pedophile. Like I used to be a CEO,

300
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: so I know he's definitely going to be charged with

301
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: enticon a minor off the bat, and they'll probably hit

302
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 1: him with something else for exchanging the pictures. But they

303
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: only get like five to six years for simple stuff

304
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: like that, and honestly, I don't think it's fair. I

305
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: think they should get more time because they're going after

306
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 1: innocent children at the end of the day, and then

307
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: once they get into the prison system, they're still continuing

308
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: their pedophilia. There's still a trade and file because you know,

309
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 1: they got stuff they're not supposed to, and it's like

310
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: they don't get better, they just get worse and they

311
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: learn the trade better. Let me ask you a questions

312
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: as a CEO. Um, you know once once people know

313
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: there's a pedophile on the yard that they still get

314
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: beat up and stuff. I mean I would say absolutely,

315
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: we don't ask you know, obviously, see it happen. We

316
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: get the aftermasth and um, they have like certain individuals

317
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: that don't walk around they're quite like the Bloody Bandit.

318
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: So they find out that you know you're a pedophile,

319
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 1: they're gonna take your butt or they're gonna export you, yeah,

320
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: or they're depending on how bad you are, obviously they're

321
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: gonna you know, teach you up. But they do get

322
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: taken care of. Wow. Well yeah, yeah, I mean listen

323
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: that that is something right. I mean, it's clearly something

324
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,640
Speaker 1: off with with with pedophiles. So what kind of what

325
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: kind of treatment does a pedophile get so when they

326
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 1: come home, they don't make they don't continue to do that.

327
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think certain certain prisons they actually

328
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 1: have programs geared for the pedophiles to help them get

329
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 1: the treatment. But certain individuals start to say they actually

330
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,800
Speaker 1: recognize what they're doing, they know that it's wrong, but

331
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: they choose to do it anyway. Right, But some of

332
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 1: them they don't know because they experienced it when they

333
00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: were younger, so they don't know any they don't know

334
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: any better. So it's coming half and half. You have

335
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,360
Speaker 1: the individuals with any crime that know what they're doing,

336
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 1: it's wrong, what they choose to do it anyway. Then

337
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 1: you have the ones that are really traumatized on their

338
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: childhood that just need help. All right, Well, thank you information. Yeah,

00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: was attacked in an anti gay and racist attack. All right,

Speaker 1: There's nobody could ever ever say that I didn't know.

360
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: That's all that came from my block. It's not meant

361
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: to be offensive. It's always been a personal joke with

Speaker 1: says people would ask me, I'd be like, I would

365
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: never tell them what it meant. Ever, I'd be like,

366
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: you have to figure it out, that's right. It's one

367
00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 1: of the greatest things ever. Yeah, they created it. It's

368
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: one of the greatest things ever. I love it to

369
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: this day. I just will never go out of it. Yeah,

370
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: it was that and the in the note you know word,

371
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: but yeah, they definitely created that. Now he talks about

372
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: a lot of other things that he came up with

373
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 1: an invented and by the way, he also talks about

374
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,840
Speaker 1: having his own band, having his own artists boot camp. Uh.

375
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 1: He talks about Kanye and jay Z and some of

376
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,920
Speaker 1: their comments. But here are some other phrases and things

377
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,399
Speaker 1: that he invented, pop tags. I made that one up. Okay,

378
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: I'm the one that named Hova. I made that up.

379
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: What was the inspiration for the Hova too? Jahova? You know? So, yeah,

380
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: I don't. I can't dispute any of that. I mean

381
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:12,800
Speaker 1: that those are the first The first time I heard

382
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: those phrases was from day so yeah, all right. Now,

383
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: Jesse Smalat took the stand in his criminal trial. You know,

384
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,159
Speaker 1: that's a very risky thing to do because when you

385
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: get cross examined, they are going to put you through it.

386
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,960
Speaker 1: This case is messy. Yes, so he's trying to rebut

387
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 1: the charges that he staged a fake hate crime and

388
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 1: lied to the police in Chicago about everything that happened

389
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,359
Speaker 1: in January of twenty nineteen. He was on the stand

390
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 1: for over five hours, so he denied orchestrating the attack,

391
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 1: and he said that the brothers who he knew from Empire,

392
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: may have had other motivations at play. One of the

393
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: things that he said was Bola Osandaro, who he calls bond,

394
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,119
Speaker 1: helped him get drugs, also helped him get cocaine. He

395
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: also said they had a sexual relationship and that started

396
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 1: between the two at a particular Chicago bathhouse. One night

397
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 1: the two were and he testified they got a private

398
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: room and did more drugs and made out. He also

399
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: says that he and Bola snuck away from his brother

400
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: after the three were at a female strip club together

401
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,800
Speaker 1: and they got a private room again and made out

402
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: and masturbated together. Now, Bolo Osundaro has denied that they

403
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: had a sexual relationship and said he didn't know that

404
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: there was even any sexual tension. And Jesse Smolett also

405
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 1: talked about the brother Ola. He said he kind of

406
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: creaked me out every time we were around him. He

407
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: didn't speak to me every time we needed to leave.

408
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: He made it seem like we needed to sneak off. Now,

409
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 1: there was a hate letter that was sent to Jesse

410
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: Smollett and the mail at the Empire Studio and according

411
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 1: to Jesse Smolette, he said Bola Osundaro approached him about

412
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: becoming his personal security guard, and he said he would

413
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 1: repeatedly ask him that, but he had a problem with

414
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: the idea of always having a security detail around him.

415
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: So those are some of the things. He also said

416
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,439
Speaker 1: that he didn't give a police detective his cell phone

417
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: when they asked for it because he didn't think that

418
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 1: the police believed his story. And he also said that

419
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 1: the Maga hat was a lie. He told police, um,

420
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 1: you know that that wasn't true, and he said that

421
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,480
Speaker 1: Chicago police his relationship with them started to deteriorate after

422
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 1: they mentioned the Maga hats because that hat was favored

423
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,199
Speaker 1: by supporters of the president at the time, Donald Trump.

424
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,479
Speaker 1: So what is he alleged. He's alleging that they were

425
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: disgruntled lovers who flipped out on him. Yeah, I guess

426
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: he's trying to say maybe that part of the reason

427
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 1: why they were having any type of interaction with each

428
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: other was because they were lovers, but he didn't say

429
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 1: he lied and he's lying about the Maga hat there. Yeah,

430
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 1: he's admitting that he lied about the Maga hat. Yeah,

431
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: there was no no Maga hat, so he said. Um.

432
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: He rejected some of what has been reported, including that

433
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 1: he told police his alleged attackers were wearing Maga hats.

434
00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: He said he never told the police that. Oh he

435
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: said he lied on him. Yeah, he's saying he never

436
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,919
Speaker 1: said that, and he said under oath that there was

437
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: no hoax. He said he was driving, smoking a blunt

438
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 1: and texting with a woman after his MSNBC appearance when

439
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 1: the Olsen Darrell brothers were in his car. And according

440
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: to the brothers, they say that remember when they said

441
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: that they were going through like a dress rehearsal of

442
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: the hoax. He's saying that's not what happened. They just

443
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: were in his car at that time and he was

444
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 1: texting and smoking. He also says the night of the attack,

445
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: Bola Olsen Dyral called him about his training and his

446
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: mail plan and they told him to get four eggs.

447
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: So he went to Walgreens to get eggs and that's

448
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,639
Speaker 1: when he was attacked. All I know is you know personally,

449
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: whatever you know happens in this situation. I don't think

450
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: Jesse deserves no three years in prison. I think that's

451
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: what he's facing, right, three is in prison. Yeah, it's

452
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,800
Speaker 1: like no given probation of something. All he did was

453
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: lie to the police. Well he's saying he didn't lie,

454
00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,560
Speaker 1: so oh well yeah, okay, you're right, but even at

455
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: the at the worst, at the worst, you know, he's

456
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:54,920
Speaker 1: he's a completely innocent or if he is guilty, Hinges

457
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: lied to thee three years in prison, yeah, don't. I

458
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: don't think there's enough evidence to say that he did

459
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 1: it though, Like it's my word verse their word, Like

460
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 1: there's not enough. There's no evidence that said that this

461
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: was a hoax. Right, they don't have no no text,

462
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 1: they don't have nothing to just their words versus Justesse's words, right, Yeah,

463
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: and so he's back on the stand today. I don't

464
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: think that's enough to convict him if there's no evidence.

465
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: It's just I didn't I can't believe this went to trial. Yeah,

466
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 1: but all right, well that is your rumor report. All right,

500
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 1: let's talk about the latest on the Amicron variant. The

501
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 1: US is reevaluating travel bands on a daily basis. This

502
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 1: is important right now because I know the holidays are

503
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: upon us and people are making plans. It's making it

504
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 1: hard to even decide like where to go or what

505
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: to do because you don't know where we'll be at

506
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: that time. But doctor Anthony Fauci is saying that a

507
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: US travel ban on South Africa and several other African

508
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: countries is being re evaluated every day. He said the

509
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: US was aware of the heart tip. The bands have

510
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 1: placed on the countries, but he said the band was

511
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,120
Speaker 1: put in place when the US was in the dark

512
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: and just learning about a surge in cases in South

513
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: Africa due to the amicron variant, and added that the

514
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 1: band was meant to provide time to assess the situation.

515
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 1: So they did bar entry the travelers from South Africa,

516
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 1: Botswana's and Babwe, Malawi. But the variant has now been

517
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: identified in dozens of countries in several US states as well,

518
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: So now there's new travel restrictions because of this variant

519
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:01,480
Speaker 1: in the UK, Australia, Japan, Brazil, can to India, Russia,

520
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,719
Speaker 1: and they're getting more and more information about cases. So

521
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: if it's in all these places, that they're going to

522
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: band travel for all these places as well, because we

523
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: already told you starting in South Africa, right, well, we

524
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 1: already told you starting yesterday, you have to have tested

525
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 1: negative within twenty four hours. It used to be within

526
00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 1: three days, right and now it's within twenty four hours,

527
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: So they've made that rule already. So Joe Biden also

528
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: announced previously that there's new measures that are aimed at

529
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,719
Speaker 1: curbing the pandemic. All inbound international travelers have to be

530
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,439
Speaker 1: required to test within one day of departure for the

531
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:36,199
Speaker 1: United States and all flights departing after today. Yeah, starting

532
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:39,200
Speaker 1: today must have buy buy a new CDC testing order

533
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,479
Speaker 1: which was posted, So that's going to apply to everyone, Okay,

534
00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,560
Speaker 1: and documentation of having recovered from COVID in the past

535
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: ninety days it's also accepted. And I'm really confused with

536
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 1: this because they're saying, no, morochrome might not be as

537
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,919
Speaker 1: they might not have as much damage to people as

538
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 1: the delta variant or the regular areat right, Yeah, but

539
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: that's not going so crazy over this variant. Well, they're

540
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: saying it's more contagious, is what it looks like. So

541
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 1: it might not be as damaging, but it could be

542
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: more contagious. But again, it's still too early to know

543
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: everything because it's a new variant, got so things come

544
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 1: up all the time, so they're keeping an eye on it, right,

545
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,919
Speaker 1: all right, And taking viagra can cut your risk of

546
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: Alzheimer's by up to sixty nine percent. Really, what a

547
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: crazy percentage number to go with your viagra. But yes,

548
00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 1: so if you take viagra, according to research, it can

549
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: slash your risk of Alzheimer's by two thirds, So you

550
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,879
Speaker 1: should take Viagra more. I mean, it's just the study.

551
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: They did analyze data on seven point two million US adults,

552
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 1: and they found that regular users had a sixty nine

553
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,679
Speaker 1: percent lower chance of being diagnosed with Alzheimer's over the

554
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: next six years. You just gotta walk around with a

555
00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 1: third leg in your pants all day long if you're

556
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: Nick Cannon. But I don't know everybody won't have that.

557
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: Because you saw Nick Cannon went viral? Did you just

558
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 1: go m no, yes you did. You didn't just go

559
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 1: that wasn't before Nick Cannon? What's wrong with you? Man?

560
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 1: So random? I say, Nick Cannon? You said no, I didn't.

561
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: All right, Well that is your front Pace news. My goodness?

562
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: All right? Now how do you pronounce Herschela Ali will

563
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:12,719
Speaker 1: be joining us. He's an actor, of course. He won

564
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: an Oscar for his role in Moonlight in Green Book.

565
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 1: He's in a new flick is called swan Song and

566
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,000
Speaker 1: premiers in theaters on Friday, December seventeen. He's an amazing actor,

567
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 1: and you know Swansong is his first and leading role.

568
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: You would think that in Green Book he was the

569
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 1: lead in that movie, but he actually won the Oscar

570
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: for Best Supporting Actor and in Moonlight, but everybody thought

571
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 1: he was the lead. Okay, so I'm gonna kick with

572
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 1: We're gonna kick it with Mirschela Ali when we come back,

573

00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: the guy. We all the Breakfast Club. We got a

576
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: special guest in the building, indeed, Herchela Ali. Welcome, Robam, Hey,

577
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: thanks for having me. How you feel. I'm good? I'm good,

578
00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: first time Goode's good? Today? Life is good? Man? How

579
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: y'all doing? Blessed Black and Holly favorite brother? So let's

580
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,560
Speaker 1: get into it. Of course we're here to talk about

581
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: swan Song first and foremost. And if I'm not mistaken,

582
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: did you produce this movie? Also, I'm one of the

583
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 1: producers only Yeah, okay, So what you're you to this movie?

584
00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: In particular the dilemma I think the story is is

585
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: really unique. Did I read correctly that this is your

586
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,120
Speaker 1: first leading role? First, that's nuts to me. I mean,

587
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 1: I don't know why I never thought that this, always

588
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: thought you Yeah. Yeah. And also, first, it's been twenty

589
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: years twenty one years. Yeah, and you did when oscars

590
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 1: already I'm want to talk about support. How does that change?

591
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: Some people would say, oh, these awards don't matter and

592
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 1: say things like that. But winning an oscar, right, how

593
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: did that change your trajectory? Or did it? Did it

594
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 1: not matter to you? Did it change things? Oh? It

595
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: definitely matter. Did it change things? You suddenly get more opportunity.

596
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 1: Quantity doesn't always equal quality, though, you still have to

597
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 1: sift through it all to make sure that you are

598
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: are locking in on the opportunity that feels right for you.

599
00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: Let's talk about that process though, of getting to the

600
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 1: leading man status and everything about you says leading man, right,

601
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: how do you humble yourself to I guess, play your

602
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,720
Speaker 1: position until you get to this point. So the sports

603
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,720
Speaker 1: analogy is, you know, you might be seventh eighth man

604
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 1: on the bench, but you believe that you have the

605
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 1: capacity to start, you know, And so I think what

606
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: you try to do is every time you're playing, you

607
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,360
Speaker 1: just try to show up and do your job and

608
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 1: try to prove that you are worthy of more minutes.

609
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 1: So you just got to kind of keep doing what

610
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: you're doing, keep your head down, do the best work

611
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: you can do, try to keep growing and try not

612
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 1: to repeat. You want to try to diversify, you know,

613
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: so you might take something smaller just because it's so

614
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: different from the last thing you did, because then the

615
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: goal becomes about showing your range as an actor, so

616
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: that eventually, when that right thing pops, people are just

617
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: constantly seeing you in a different light. That's kind of

618
00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 1: been my approach to try to be patient and also

619
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: just understand that as long as I'm doing my best work,

620
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: that unfold in God's time. Did you ever make the

621
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: wrong pick? Like, damn, I should have did this movie

622
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: or that movie was great. I could have had an opportunity,

623
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 1: but I didn't go that route. Did you ever make

624
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 1: that mistake? It's you make that decision, you know. I

625
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:14,959
Speaker 1: don't want to say that they are mistakes because I've grown.

626
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: I've grown from every opportunity, and now I think that

627
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 1: every role that you get, there's a reason why you

628
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: got that role. That's that's my approach to it, because

629
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: I've learned something from each role that I got it

630
00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: for a reason and it impacted me for a reason,

631
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 1: and so as long as you're learning, it's less about

632
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: making the right choice or the wrong choice. But it's

633
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: more about can you look at your growth as a

634
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 1: result of having just done this experience? What did you

635
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 1: learn from green book? I think like stepping into it,

636
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: especially coming off a moon, like I was looking to

637
00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: do something that felt really unique. And so when I

638
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: look at somebody who was empowered enough in nineteen sixty

639
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 1: one nineteen sixty two to hire a white man to

640
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: drive him through the South, that I interpret that as

641
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: almost somebody like flipping off the South, so to speak,

642
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: like he had his own little ways of bucking the system.

643
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: So when I looked at like his education, his experiences,

644
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: I was like, this is somebody that I hadn't quite

645
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: seen before. So that right there, I wanted to challenge myself. No, no,

646
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: because I don't regret the work I did, and I

647
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 1: don't regret regret what attracted me to it and why

648
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: I did it. Now, in every situation, things get complicated

649
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: at time, and so if anything, I think walking out

650
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 1: of it you learn more about like what is due diligence.

651
00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: Going into a project, like you could do your due diligence,

652
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 1: you ask some questions, Well, this is what I need,

653
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: this is you know that I don't need, but then

654
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: later on you kind of learned as things revealed. You're like,

655
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: oh man, there's an extra set of questions that I

656
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 1: could have asked. But you just also don't know what

657
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: you don't know. And so that's just part of the

658
00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 1: experiences of growing and moving from being someone who is

659
00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: most often supporting something to almost in something, and that

660
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: leap is a real leap, and so their awareness and

661
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 1: all the details of that and how much of your

662
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: life changes and the expectations and the responsibilities and all that.

663
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 1: It's you learning too. You know, you're learning on the fly,

664
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 1: and especially once you're working with like these big corporations

665
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: and you're like, whoa, I don't agree with this trailer.

666
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: This shouldn't be in it. It's out of context, and

667
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 1: they go it tested. Well, You're like, what can you

668
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:30,320
Speaker 1: say to that? And so that's often the experience artists

669
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 1: find themselves in, and you navigated, you learn from it,

670
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:37,200
Speaker 1: and you try to move on. And especially what happens

671
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:43,760
Speaker 1: is when you have studios and production companies, they're faceless, right,

672
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 1: And so once that film comes out and it may

673
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: do well in one part of a demographic and another

674
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: part of the country, is not feeling it, especially as

675
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: actors of color, you walk out kind of carrying that

676
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:02,520
Speaker 1: bag if you made all those choices or decisions when

677
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 1: the faceless companies kind of like they own the next

678
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 1: rollout for their next gig. So I learned a lot

679
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 1: from it. Does that make you feel like you want

680
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: to have more control as far as that's what maybe

681
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: want to produce? I mean, it's not what made me

682
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 1: want to produce, but it's something that added to the

683
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: fuel behind behind wanting to produce because so often you're

684
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,239
Speaker 1: behind the scenes, and I'm sure you could talk to

685
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 1: a healthy group of actors of color, because it's not

686
00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 1: just black actors, but where you find yourself where there

687
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:35,400
Speaker 1: isn't a black voice in the producerial role. So what

688
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 1: happens is actors have to start saying like, oh, there's

689
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: a problem with this scene. Can we try it this way?

690
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,720
Speaker 1: Because that could be problematic, And so that inherently becomes

691
00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: part of your job as an actor, though you will

692
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: not be credited as a producer, but you're producing because

693
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: you begin to start trying to protect the film and

694
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: think about all these things that can impact the film

695
00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 1: and impact you as an artist. So in getting the

696
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: producer at it. Often you're already doing that work anyway.

697
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: So I've appreciated being able to move into that space

698
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 1: because now there's a legit seat at the table. It's

699
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 1: not like you're standing behind the people sitting at the

700
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 1: table and being like, hey, can you fix this part

701
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 1: because that could be problematic or this is actually what

702
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: we need to go for here can you do that?

703
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 1: And they may or may not listen to you that

704
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: if you're producing and you're the face of it, it's

705
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:29,920
Speaker 1: a way to protect yourself and the story. Now Herschel

706
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 1: to break down the movie Swan song, What is it about?

707
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 1: The film is about a man who is dealing with

708
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:41,040
Speaker 1: a terminal illness and he is presented with an opportunity

709
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 1: to clone himself. And so this is the not too

710
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: distant future, so it's say it's like twenty forty. Part

711
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,560
Speaker 1: of it is that he just can't tell his family.

712
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: And the reason he can't tell his family is because

713
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: this process is new, so there's almost still in this

714
00:35:55,920 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: semi testing phase of it. It's not like openly permitted yet.

715
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: So with that said, considering that you have somebody who

716
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: is relatively young, meaning the character on playing and the

717
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,840
Speaker 1: child who is like ten years old. You have somebody

718
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: who's looking like feeling like they're dying before their time.

719
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,640
Speaker 1: The advantage that the clone has is that he has

720
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: all the awareness that the original has, Like he has

721
00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:26,440
Speaker 1: all the same memories, all the same he's him, No,

722
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:30,400
Speaker 1: he's him, he's him, but he just doesn't have the

723
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,320
Speaker 1: illness right. And so there's this thing where you feel

724
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 1: like the clone is really about to take advantage of

725
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:41,319
Speaker 1: having this new opportunity at life. And so I feel

726
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,760
Speaker 1: like we all have that character's name is Jack the Clone.

727
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: I think we all have a Jack Inness. We all

728
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 1: have a higher potential, we all have our best self.

729
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:52,359
Speaker 1: So the work becomes about what do we have to

730
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: do to manifest our best selves? Like how do we

731
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:59,480
Speaker 1: take stock and take inventory? Do we need a death sentence?

732
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: Do you need the ticking clock that you're totally aware

733
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,360
Speaker 1: of to begin to like look at some of the

734
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 1: changes you need to make in a lot in your

735
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 1: own life. Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we are

736
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club is still kicking it with Reharcheal Ali.

737
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: Of course you want to ask for his roles in

738
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 1: Moonlighting Green book. He has a new flick Swan song.

739
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,680
Speaker 1: You ever get a sucking character, though, because it's like

740
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: you do different characters, Yeah, from all aspects and players

741
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 1: and all different people. Do you ever get stuck in

742
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: the thing and can't get out? Um? And how do

743
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 1: you get out of it? You know what I will say,

744
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 1: I don't think I ever get stuck in character. But

745
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: what I do think is I think you. I think

746
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,880
Speaker 1: there's things to take with you from each character. I

747
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 1: think there's lessons to take with you, just like there's

748
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,759
Speaker 1: lessons to take from each relationship or each job. And

749
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,840
Speaker 1: so I try to take the things that impact me

750
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 1: in a positive way from these from these characters. But

751
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,680
Speaker 1: each character comes with a certain degree of toxicity too, right,

752
00:37:52,920 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 1: because you're living in somebody else's problems for twelve to

753
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 1: eighteen hours a day, And so for me, there's a

754
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 1: time in which I kind of need post shooting to

755
00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 1: sort of like almost mourn the character, like to kind

756
00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:07,920
Speaker 1: of get it out of me, because you get in

757
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,759
Speaker 1: the rhythm and you get eat. I can't even eat

758
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: sitting down. It's hard for me to eat sitting down

759
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,439
Speaker 1: because I'm just so used to rushing all the time.

760
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,879
Speaker 1: And you quick change and then you're back on set

761
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:19,319
Speaker 1: real quick and at a certain point you're like, Yo,

762
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: this is not normal. Let me bring it down. I

763
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: gotta let go of the stresses of this character that

764
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,319
Speaker 1: I've been living with for four months and begin to

765
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: embrace my own again and kind of let that go.

766
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 1: So it just it takes time to shake it, like

767
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,359
Speaker 1: I just feel it. Like I remember shooting Rock Rock

768
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 1: Sanne Rock Sane No, but I had nightmares like the

769
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 1: last week of shooting and that with that character, like

770
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 1: for real, I've never had it like that before. And

771
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 1: so there's a thing where your body doesn't necessarily know

772
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: the difference from the messages you're telling it. And that's

773
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 1: why you have to be so conscious of what what

774
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 1: you're listening to, what you're taking in. I remember listening

775
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,719
Speaker 1: to the radio it's like twelve. I would turn the

776
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 1: radio on at night and one time my mom came

777
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,759
Speaker 1: in and she was like, no, turn that off. You

778
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 1: can't listen to it. I was like, what are you

779
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: talking about? Like you know, She's like, no, there's messages

780
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: that you need to be conscious of what you're listening to.

781
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,719
Speaker 1: I ain't trying to screw you. Guys up for people listening.

782
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: But like, there's messages you need to be conscious of.

783
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: And it's like if it's playing and you hear it

784
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,520
Speaker 1: and you know it, that's one thing. But yeah, it

785
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: takes time to shake. I want to go back to

786
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:25,200
Speaker 1: something you said in regardless of Swan songs, does that

787
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 1: movie change your perception of death and life? You know what?

788
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,600
Speaker 1: I think it encourages me to to live a little fooler.

789
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:36,800
Speaker 1: I think it encourages me to put my foot on

790
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: the gas of it. I think it really encourages me

791
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 1: to try to be as present as possible with my

792
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,840
Speaker 1: friends and loved ones right now. My grandfather told me

793
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: years ago, he said, tell people how you feel right now,

794
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,280
Speaker 1: like and he you know, he started, he got teared

795
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: up a little bit and he was like, I don't

796
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,000
Speaker 1: know where this was coming from. And he was like,

797
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 1: I just want you to to know I love you, and

798
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 1: you know, and that always stuck with me. I was

799
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 1: about fifteen years old, and leading up to this, it

800
00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,040
Speaker 1: just makes me think, like, you know, if there's something

801
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: I want to do, there's something there I want to try,

802
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: if there's a change I want to make. There's one

803
00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 1: thing in like thinking about it and kind of road

804
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 1: mapping it out through your head. But there's another thing

805
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:13,719
Speaker 1: in like a very New York thing, just go. And

806
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: I think that for me is the message, you know,

807
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 1: because I just want to make sure that I stay

808
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 1: in motion, you know. And I think if we keep

809
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: like marching forward, that's all we got because you know,

810
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:31,080
Speaker 1: all of our numbers are going to be called like

811
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 1: a really safe space too, where we're comfortable with the

812
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,319
Speaker 1: routine of what we're doing in our lives. We know

813
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 1: we have this steady paycheck and you're like scared to

814
00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,719
Speaker 1: go out and take a risk doing something else. So

815
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 1: did you ever have that experience in your career. I've

816
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 1: had that experience most of the time. And that's a muscle,

817
00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: the reaction to that. When I start feeling comfortable, I

818
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 1: found myself reacting in ways where that voice gets louder

819
00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:00,799
Speaker 1: and you could kind of work to or it, but

820
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: eventually you need to react. So when I was on

821
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: a House of Cards, which is a huge show, it

822
00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:08,960
Speaker 1: was after the beginning is I don't know, I was

823
00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 1: season three and I started asking to get off the show,

824
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 1: and I had friends and family going like, are you crazy?

825
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,359
Speaker 1: This thing is huge, like why you want to get

826
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: off the show? And I was concerned with getting comfortable

827
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 1: and finding myself as how I interpreted just another dude

828
00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: on the show, and so it was important for me

829
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,759
Speaker 1: to move on, to keep building towards what I saw

830
00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,200
Speaker 1: for myself, which was Swan song. You know what I

831
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 1: mean in a way of like I want to move up,

832
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,479
Speaker 1: and I just didn't want to be on somebody's show,

833
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:43,680
Speaker 1: always supporting other people's narrative. So Chao came to me

834
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 1: doing Luke Cage and he was like, yo, you want

835
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,640
Speaker 1: to do this show? And I was like, I just

836
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 1: got off a House of cards. He was like, he's

837
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 1: gonna die. I was like, cool. I was the only

838
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 1: reason I did it though, because they're gonna kill it.

839
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,439
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have done it otherwise, Wow, I just got

840
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 1: off of the show. Well, I didn't want to get stuck.

841
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: I didn't want to be on another show for it.

842
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: I've already done, like I came into it and Crossing

843
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 1: Jordan two thousand and one. I did my first year there.

844
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,400
Speaker 1: I got fired after one year or whatever, but everyone

845
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,240
Speaker 1: else was on there for seven years and I watched

846
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 1: it happen. It was the best thing that could have

847
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,719
Speaker 1: happened to me. Honestly, I would ended up on like

848
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: the forty four hundred and asked for a three year deal,

849
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:26,840
Speaker 1: so that was gonna be short, and everyone else was

850
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 1: in six year deal. So I always was trying to

851
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:34,800
Speaker 1: make sure that I couldn't get too comfortable, because, especially

852
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,600
Speaker 1: as an actor, you don't want to get stuck as

853
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,720
Speaker 1: one thing, like because that is death or an actor

854
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:46,640
Speaker 1: to only but I hear you, and that's that was

855
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 1: a real concern. And for me, it's always been about

856
00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: trying to diversify and make sure that I wasn't repeating

857
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: or playing the same character, and making sure that I'm

858
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:03,720
Speaker 1: always pushing myself. Otherwise, for me, if I don't feel uncomfortable,

859
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,720
Speaker 1: then I know I'm not growing. And so if something

860
00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 1: feels like it's starting to get easy, as much as like,

861
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 1: I love when things get easy, but at the same

862
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:16,799
Speaker 1: time you're like yeah, and then I get unhappy in

863
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,640
Speaker 1: a real way. And so I already know that about myself,

864
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 1: so I kind of have to keep pushing myself and

865
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 1: figuring out, all right, how am I gonna take on

866
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:32,239
Speaker 1: something that scares me a bit. There's there's plenty there's

867
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 1: plenty to work out. There's so much about that that

868
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 1: is that is challenging, just in general that you know,

869
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,200
Speaker 1: I got my hands full, and even in doing it

870
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 1: and then wanting to do other stuff, I don't want

871
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 1: to just be bladed like that is one character. And honestly,

872
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 1: as huge as that is, is huge as the Marvel

873
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:52,200
Speaker 1: cinematic universes and all of that is amazing. All these

874
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 1: characters are important to me equally. That's all. You say

875
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:58,160
Speaker 1: that you were losing sleep over your voice over role

876
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 1: in the Eternals, and I'm like, why your voice is amazing? No, well,

877
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm talking character though, and so, and all I meant

878
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:10,720
Speaker 1: by that was if you're doing vocal work for something

879
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:14,319
Speaker 1: your months away from filming, you're still putting together all

880
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: those things in your head. You're like body starting to change,

881
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: which is gonna change your voice? You don't know if

882
00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:20,399
Speaker 1: you're gonna go with something a little deeper. You don't

883
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,320
Speaker 1: know if you're gonna so suddenly when someone's like, okay,

884
00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 1: we need you to voice something, You're like, oh, I

885
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: was coming to that in its natural order. And so

886
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: it's just something that felt premature, because otherwise you would

887
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:34,120
Speaker 1: never do that. You talk about doing radio, got that

888
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:41,760
Speaker 1: quiet stone voice, but like to hear that. But no, no,

889
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 1: no radio. But I respect I respect it, I respect it.

890
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 1: All right. We have more with rehearsal Ali when we

891
00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:51,360
Speaker 1: come back, don't move. It's to Breakfast Club. Good morning morning.

892
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:55,319
Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne, the guy we

893
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 1: are to Breakfast Club is still kicking it with rehearsal Ali.

894
00:44:58,040 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: Of course you want to Oscar for his roles and

895
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,359
Speaker 1: moon Lay Green Book. He has a new flick swan song.

896
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,439
Speaker 1: Where were you an artist? At one point? I'm still

897
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:08,799
Speaker 1: an artist though I make beats. I was on Hieroglyphics

898
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,359
Speaker 1: Imperium the label, and doing some stuff before that. So

899
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,719
Speaker 1: I've always been involved in in music in some way,

900
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 1: shape or form. You know, if you grow up in

901
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 1: the era, can't separate yourself. You love doing Roxan roxand

902
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: because of that, you know, are you kidding me? Yeah?

903
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 1: I had the ute Phone records or some of my

904
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: early records like Utfo, Houdini, Fat Boys, like all those

905
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,680
Speaker 1: whore I was doing yeah like no, like yeah, like no.

906
00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,359
Speaker 1: And my dad was a New Yorker, so I was out.

907
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 1: I'm from California, from the Bay Area, but my dad

908
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 1: had moved to New York when I was when I

909
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: was three, and so I was coming out here and

910
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 1: growing up and getting a taste in New York for

911
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 1: the summer, and then I would go back to the

912
00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: Bay and I was like, I couldn't explain it. So

913
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: what about Roxan Roxand how was that for you? Doing

914
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:59,359
Speaker 1: that and having that musical background Roxand was was both

915
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: a dream a nightmare. And what I mean is that

916
00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:07,600
Speaker 1: the playing this character cross who is you know, violent,

917
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:11,040
Speaker 1: you know, hitting her like we we all know the story.

918
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,440
Speaker 1: It was honored to be a service of her truth.

919
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 1: I gotta be the bad guy, but she's gonna win

920
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 1: in the end in some way, right, so you gotta

921
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:21,360
Speaker 1: give over to that. And that's the only thing that

922
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,720
Speaker 1: really gave me peace about it. So to do something

923
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:29,240
Speaker 1: to help tell an icon story and her in particular,

924
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 1: was a great thing to be able to do, especially

925
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 1: having a real relationship to the music and being aware

926
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:37,840
Speaker 1: at that time as a kid growing up. But what

927
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 1: was hard was like the actual like physical act of it.

928
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 1: And you know, you gotta go there, you gotta push

929
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,319
Speaker 1: yourself and then you gotta do it like take after

930
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,400
Speaker 1: take after take, So you like pretending to beat somebody

931
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:54,399
Speaker 1: up and strangling them and acting like crazy for six

932
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,240
Speaker 1: hours of the day like that, don't just go away.

933
00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:00,240
Speaker 1: You gotta shake that off. Do you question yourself an

934
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 1: acting nowadays when you're doing that, Because I was talking

935
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,120
Speaker 1: to Megan Good recently and she was saying how when

936
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,279
Speaker 1: she does sex act, she thinks people look at it

937
00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:09,799
Speaker 1: and think that's how she really gets down. In this

938
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 1: era of cancel culture, people be like, oh, he must

939
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 1: really do that to women. Look how he does it

940
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:18,000
Speaker 1: so well. You know, I try not to think about

941
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,880
Speaker 1: it that way. I'm always a little surprised when people

942
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 1: I feel like Danny Glover had stayed impacted by his

943
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:29,279
Speaker 1: part in Color Purple. I'm serious, like I felt like

944
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 1: that there's not a sweeter man on the planet. But

945
00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,399
Speaker 1: I feel like sometimes people play roles so well that

946
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,800
Speaker 1: it's hard for folks to get that thing out of

947
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 1: their head and they do associate you with that character.

948
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: So it's something to be to be really mindful of.

949
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,399
Speaker 1: But like a career as a mosaic, right, Like, there's

950
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: all these tiles in it each role you play, and

951
00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:52,839
Speaker 1: when you step away you step back from it, there's

952
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:57,120
Speaker 1: a picture, right you look at Denzel. Denzel's career and

953
00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,920
Speaker 1: there's all these characters in there. There's characters that are

954
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,359
Speaker 1: icons and heroes as characters that are normal people. He's

955
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 1: got a villain up in there. You know. When you

956
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 1: step away, you go, oh, you see the spine of

957
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:09,319
Speaker 1: his work, you see the picture of his work, and

958
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,240
Speaker 1: you get a sense of his essence as a person.

959
00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 1: But you're not gonna hopefully you don't judge him by

960
00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 1: one character he played, Like, really, well, when did you

961
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: start to realize the power of intention? M That's a

962
00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,480
Speaker 1: good question, man, that's a good question. You know what

963
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,399
Speaker 1: I would probably say a little over twenty years ago

964
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: when I converted to Islam, Like one of the things

965
00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 1: that you do is you state your intention before you pray.

966
00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: So I intend to make my fudgered prayer like my

967
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:38,600
Speaker 1: morning prayer whatever. And then it kind of led to

968
00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,919
Speaker 1: me thinking more about like the importance of writing things down,

969
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:44,760
Speaker 1: Like I know, I remember one time I wrote down

970
00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe like two thousand and six or

971
00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 1: seven or something like that. I wrote down these goals

972
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: that I wanted to do. I want the book a pilot,

973
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:51,879
Speaker 1: I don't want to do this that another I wrote

974
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: them down. I kept it in my wallet. I remember

975
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: I pulled it out some time later and I like, wow,

976
00:48:56,680 --> 00:49:00,239
Speaker 1: all these things happen. And also growing up with my grandmother, well,

977
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,279
Speaker 1: being around my grandmother a lot, she was always like

978
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,239
Speaker 1: filling my head with certain things. Tell yourself, you have

979
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 1: five hundred million dollars. She's been telling me that since

980
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,000
Speaker 1: I was a little kid. Like I was like, that's

981
00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,360
Speaker 1: a crazy amount of money. But okay, you know, and

982
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 1: you start telling your things yourself things, and so I was.

983
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 1: I've gotten messages as as a little kid about like

984
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,280
Speaker 1: being conscious of what you think and what you tell yourself,

985
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 1: and to to don't be afraid to state your intention

986
00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 1: because it will help you. It'll kind of be like

987
00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: when behind your back ever reason, I have to because

988
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 1: everything just hearing you talk, it feels like everything you

989
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:33,439
Speaker 1: do is intentional, not everything. But I try. I try

990
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 1: to be intentional. I do try. You know, how did

991
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 1: you feel when Wesley Snipe said you'll you'll do a

992
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 1: great job in Blade Man? Humbled and so encouraged by that,

993
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 1: because then you have to say that, like you know

994
00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 1: what nobody really asking him for him to come out

995
00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,000
Speaker 1: and say that, you know, somebody I look up to

996
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:56,919
Speaker 1: so much. I sincerely appreciated that, so thank you brother.

997
00:49:57,120 --> 00:49:58,680
Speaker 1: Has there been any talks about because you know, we

998
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:01,240
Speaker 1: got the multiverse and more, have there been any talks about,

999
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:06,160
Speaker 1: you know, him reprising. I can't talk about I can't

1000
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 1: even really, you know, they put the hush that's pretty

1001
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:12,680
Speaker 1: good at the questions. Yeah, I can't even. I can't even.

1002
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:14,920
Speaker 1: I really can't really talk about anything. But how much

1003
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 1: pressure to do? I'm learning it's a lot of pressure. Man,

1004
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:20,759
Speaker 1: it's a lot. But other people have done it and

1005
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:25,440
Speaker 1: survived and succeeded, So you know, I'm just gonna try

1006
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 1: to set myself up to do to it the absolute

1007
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:29,759
Speaker 1: best work I could do. What's the next thing for

1008
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:33,000
Speaker 1: you that you're scared of to accomplish that You're like, Okay,

1009
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to get too comfortable, like we've been

1010
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,799
Speaker 1: talking about not getting too comfortable in the space, and

1011
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 1: so you have to figure out, Okay, now I want

1012
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:43,160
Speaker 1: to do this that I've never done before direct and

1013
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,400
Speaker 1: you know, God willing not have happened at some point.

1014
00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 1: Is there something on the table now? I mean I've

1015
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 1: had a couple of things pop up, but it's been

1016
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: I've said no because of just knowing what is on

1017
00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:58,279
Speaker 1: my acting slate and how I kind of have to do.

1018
00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:00,359
Speaker 1: Even if I'm doing multiple things, I have to do

1019
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,200
Speaker 1: one thing at a time. So maybe I got something

1020
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:06,360
Speaker 1: else on the calendar on that day, but I can't

1021
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:08,360
Speaker 1: be doing the thing I'm doing and prepping for the

1022
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 1: other thing. I'm just I'm not really good at that

1023

1026
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,280
Speaker 1: what it would be now. I think, you know, there's

1027
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,319
Speaker 1: other people out there that are right for that, but

1028
00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:26,759
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I honestly, I would have to

1029
00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,879

00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:43,200
Speaker 1: it was all pretty challenging, but in a positive way.

1034
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,320
Speaker 1: How far away do you think we are from cloning people?

1035

1071
00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:25,239
Speaker 1: it was pretty bad, but oh my goodness, but that's

1072
00:54:25,360 --> 00:54:28,560
Speaker 1: entertaining if you had the game laughing. I remember the

1073
00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:32,280
Speaker 1: play is laughing. What she did. Remember that her husband

1074
00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:34,440
Speaker 1: was mad. He said that Jamond Green old her an

1075
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:36,960
Speaker 1: apology because he was laughing. Everybody was laughing though, and

1076
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 1: you know, they made it into a children's book, that

1077
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 1: horrible singer. Yeah, the furg American national anthem. I don't

1078
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:46,239
Speaker 1: matter if they get paid, Okay, Yeah, I mean I

1079
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 1: don't know if she did, but I guess they would

1080
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:49,960
Speaker 1: have to get clearance from her in order for that

1081
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 1: to happen. Absolutely, yes, but shout out to him all right? Um? Now,

1082
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:58,720
Speaker 1: Punked and Dish MANTLD has been set for a season

1083
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,719
Speaker 1: two premieres at oh Coup. So there were two of

1084
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:04,720
Speaker 1: the unscripted Quibby originals that were renewed for a second season.

1085
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 1: While Quimby existed, that was definitely a quick bite. Quimby

1086
00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:11,880
Speaker 1: came and went, but Punked was hosted by Chance the

1091
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 1: from the trailer. Oh, I think my water just broke. Tiffany,

1092
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 1: don't want nothing to do with that wrecking ball just

1093
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:48,960
Speaker 1: falling on my coffee? Are you kitty drop it? I'm

Speaker 1: definitely remember having a bait. I always love punk man.

1095
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,400
Speaker 1: I love the Pump with Jady Kiss was a funny

1096
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:57,840
Speaker 1: one with Kanye West was another funny, funny one. I

1097
00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:00,320
Speaker 1: love Pump. Yeah, I feel like they could punk you easily.

1098
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:06,160
Speaker 1: Definitely catch me. I do absolutely. You will get cursed

1099
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:10,399
Speaker 1: out in a minute. To set that up, sir. Your

1100
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 1: cars didn't arrive at the car show. I will be

1101
00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:15,719
Speaker 1: a good one. That will be a good one. And

1102
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: I had my calls on, oh my goodness, don't play

1103
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 1: with me, do not play with me. We have to wait,

1104
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 1: make sure they get there first, and then do that.

1105
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 1: Don't play with me. Okay. And by the way, since

1106
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:29,000
Speaker 1: we just mentioned Miguel saying that he called off his

1107
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:32,080
Speaker 1: divorce from his wife, they actually were spotted having a

1108
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:35,160
Speaker 1: romantic dinner a few weeks ago after they had broken up,

1109
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:37,319
Speaker 1: and so it looks like that two of them are

1110
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:41,480
Speaker 1: back on again. So happy to see that they hopefully

1111
00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 1: worked it out. Yeah, that's that's a great thing. I

1112
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:45,359
Speaker 1: love to see love like that. And you know, they've

1113
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,400
Speaker 1: been together a long time, so sometimes you get in

1114
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:49,800
Speaker 1: the arguments things go a little too far. And seventeen

1115
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:51,840
Speaker 1: years they've been together, you got to reset. Me and

1116
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:54,120
Speaker 1: a wife been together twenty seven years, so sometimes you

1117
00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:57,279
Speaker 1: gotta reset. I can't take this guy out. I'm sure

1118
00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:00,800
Speaker 1: she does that all the time. All right. And Nick Cannon,

1119
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:03,520
Speaker 1: we were talking about how Nick Cannon was trending, and

1120
00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:06,200
Speaker 1: then when you went to find out why he was trending,

1121
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:08,359
Speaker 1: it was because of the suit that he had on

1122
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,160
Speaker 1: that was kind of tight, and I guess you could

1123
00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:14,480
Speaker 1: see his print. And we talked about this earlier, and

1124
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:16,800
Speaker 1: they found that regular users had a sixty nine percent

1125
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:19,200
Speaker 1: lower chance of being diagnosed with Alzheimer's over the next

1126
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 1: six years. You just gotta walk around with a third

1127
00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,400
Speaker 1: leg in your pants all day long if you're Nick Cannon.

1128
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 1: But I don't know everybody won't have that. Because you

1129
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:30,360
Speaker 1: saw Nick Cannon, did you just go yes, she did?

1130
00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 1: What did you lie? I didn't know. I said I

1131
00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:36,400
Speaker 1: was on purpose. I was a reaction. I wasn't talking

1132
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: about Nick Cannon. Well, Damon Dash would say, paulse all right,

1133
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 1: And QC Sports has announced the launch of their no

1134
00:57:45,720 --> 00:57:52,440
Speaker 1: full service basketball division, so congratulations to them. They also

1135
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 1: have announced Derek Powell as global head of Basketball. He

1136
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:59,920
Speaker 1: has twenty two years of NBA insight negotiation and agency experience.

1137
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:01,840
Speaker 1: That's what you got to do when you venture into something,

1138
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 1: you gotta get somebody on the team that actually has

1139
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 1: been doing that for quite some time. Correct, So congratulations

1140
00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:13,040
Speaker 1: to them for a QC Sports. And Travis Scott wants

1141
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:17,800
Speaker 1: the Astro World lawsuit dismissed and he doesn't believe that

1142
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:19,960
Speaker 1: he should be tied to litigation when it comes to

1143
00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:22,800
Speaker 1: the tragedy that happened, So he's asking a judge to

1144
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,440
Speaker 1: get rid of one of the lawsuits against him. Now,

1145
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 1: he just filed legal documents denying the claims against him

1146
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 1: by a guy named jesse Garcia. Jesse Garcia says he

1147
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:35,640
Speaker 1: was in the crowd at the festival, and he's saying that,

1148
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:39,880
Speaker 1: you know, as it pertains to himself, his company, and

1149
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 1: his foundation, Cactus Jack. He's doing a general denial. That's

1150
00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:45,480
Speaker 1: a legal term in civil suits that allows when to

1151
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:49,200
Speaker 1: submit one blanket response to all of the allegations against them.

1152
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 1: So he wants to make it clear that the deaths

1153
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 1: and injuries are not his responsibility, and he wants the

1154
00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 1: judge to toss the suit against him and his entities.

1155
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 1: So we'll see what happens. Yeah, I don't think the

1156
00:58:58,440 --> 00:58:59,840
Speaker 1: judge is going to drop that, but I mean, I

1157
00:59:00,080 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 1: don't necessarily believe he should be accountable. You know, he's performing,

1158
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,440
Speaker 1: he's an artist there. He didn't hire the security, pay

1159
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 1: for the venue and all that other stuff. I don't

1160
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:09,720
Speaker 1: think he should be liable for all that stuff. But

1161
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:11,320
Speaker 1: it's gonna be in court. It's gonna be a court

1162
00:59:11,360 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 1: for a long time. Right. He said he was unaware

1163
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 1: of what was going on that night, So that's what

1164
00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,040
Speaker 1: he's saying. He didn't realize that's what's happening. And you

1165
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:19,920
Speaker 1: can tell because it was one incident where somebody did

1166
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 1: pass out. He stopped, he made short, security got the

1167
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:24,360
Speaker 1: mountain and he continued perform. And he didn't know that

1168
00:59:24,400 --> 00:59:26,760
Speaker 1: people were passing out and dying. I'm sure if he

1169
00:59:26,800 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: had known that, he would have stopped it. I mean,

1170
00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:31,280
Speaker 1: he's an artist. I'm sure sometimes people pass out a

1171
00:59:31,320 --> 00:59:33,520
Speaker 1: lot when they when they're performing. All right, well that

1172
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,520
Speaker 1: is your rumor reports. All right, thank you miss yet.

1173
00:59:36,560 --> 00:59:38,600
Speaker 1: Now when we come back, Charlemagne got donkey today, so

01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:29,080

01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,840

1200
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:08,800
Speaker 1: York for the report police. It was a mass zoom

1201
01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 1: call where employees logged on and learned they were being

1202
01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 1: fired weeks before Christmas. In a video that has gone viral,

1203
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:19,840
Speaker 1: you hear Vishal Garg, the CEO of Better dot Com,

1204
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:23,120
Speaker 1: giving the bad news. For some, it's reminiscent of the

1205
01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:26,720
Speaker 1: movie Up in the Air starring George Clooney, where firing

1206
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 1: people in person instead of via teleconference was part of

1207
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 1: the plotline. This was real life, though, for some nine

1208
01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: hundred employees of the digital mortgage lender, which has offices

1209
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 1: in Oakland, California. Now, look, I'm old school, and I

1210
01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:43,760
Speaker 1: also could be projecting right now, because I've been fired

1211
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 1: like seven times in my life. Four times from radio,

1212
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 1: once from Taco Bell, once from a cloven store called

1213
01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,240
Speaker 1: Demo in the mall, once from a factory called Industrial

1214
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:56,080
Speaker 1: Acoustics Company. So that's seven times I've been fired in

1215
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:59,520
Speaker 1: my life, and every single time I've gotten fired except

1216
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 1: one I got fired face to face. See, I respect

1217
01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:05,800
Speaker 1: when you look somebody in the eye and tell them

1218
01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:08,160
Speaker 1: you are moving in another direction. Okay, the one time

1219
01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:10,400
Speaker 1: I didn't get fired face to face was because my

1220
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 1: black ass chose radio slute to Ze ninety three jams

1221
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 1: and Charleston, South Carolina. I chose radio over Demo and

1222
01:02:17,040 --> 01:02:20,240
Speaker 1: north Ford's mall and I just simply, you know, didn't

1223
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:22,400
Speaker 1: go in. So my manager at the time, Nikki, she

1224
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:24,400
Speaker 1: did what she had to do. Salute the Nikki dropping

1225
01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,959
Speaker 1: on the cluees bombs for Nikki. I appreciate you, queen.

1226
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:30,440
Speaker 1: Now radio is even better. They don't just fire you,

1227
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:34,080
Speaker 1: they have hr escort you out. That's why I never

1228
01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,520
Speaker 1: keep anything in any office at a radio station I

1229
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:39,840
Speaker 1: work at to this day. At the breakfast club, I

1230
01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 1: don't have no damn office. I mean there is one

1231
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 1: back there, you know, for us, but I don't use

1232
01:02:44,520 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 1: it because, hey, you just never know. I'm traumatized. So

1233
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:50,840
Speaker 1: I'm saying all that to say that visual guard is

1234
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,880
Speaker 1: a coward. Now, maybe in this era that we live in,

1235
01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:57,120
Speaker 1: folks get fired all the time via zoom. Maybe I

1236
01:02:57,160 --> 01:02:59,960
Speaker 1: don't know, Maybe they still following some type of cold

1237
01:03:00,040 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 1: with protocol. But if you have to fire people, call

1238
01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:06,760
Speaker 1: them in the office and do it one at a time. Okay,

1239
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:10,000
Speaker 1: getting fired shouldn't be no damn group project. Even when

1240
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,440
Speaker 1: it was mass layoffs in two thousand and eight, I

1241
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:16,560
Speaker 1: believe we still got called in the office individually, at

1242
01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 1: least I did. Okay. Granted it was like, you know,

1243
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:22,480
Speaker 1: thirty of us getting fired and not nine hundred, But damn,

1244
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:25,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna fire nine hundred people before the holidays, and

1245
01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:29,840
Speaker 1: didn't say HR will send you an email detailing benefits

1246
01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:33,920
Speaker 1: in severance. Wow. Now Ivicial has been involved in this

1247
01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:36,200
Speaker 1: type of scandal before. In fact, this is the second

1248
01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:40,320
Speaker 1: time in his career he's fired employees like this. In fact,

1249
01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,120
Speaker 1: he said the last time he did it, he cried, listen,

1250
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,120
Speaker 1: and I do not want to do this. The last

1251
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,440
Speaker 1: time I did it, I cried. This time, I hope

1252
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:52,040
Speaker 1: to be stronger. But we are laying off about fifteen

1253
01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:56,000
Speaker 1: percent of the company. If you're on this call, you

1254
01:03:56,040 --> 01:04:00,680
Speaker 1: are part of the unlucky group, you dude, being laid off.

1255
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:04,200
Speaker 1: That's right, f you, dude. And this wasn't even his

1256
01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:07,440
Speaker 1: first controversy. He once sent an email to his staff

1257
01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:10,960
Speaker 1: saying you are too damn slow. You are a bunch

1258
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:14,400
Speaker 1: of dumb dolphins, So stop it, stop it, stop it

1259
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:19,600
Speaker 1: right now. You are embarrassing me in quote. First of all, Visual,

1260
01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 1: how dare you insult dolphins in this way. I can't

1261
01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:25,520
Speaker 1: speak for your staff. I don't know your staff, but

1262
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:29,080
Speaker 1: dumb dolphins is an oxymoron. Dolphins are one of the

1263
01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:33,240
Speaker 1: smartest animals in the world. Dolphins are notoriously talented mimics.

1264
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 1: They are quick learners. They demonstrate self awareness, problem solving, empathy, innovation,

1265
01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:42,440
Speaker 1: teaching skills, grief, joy, and playfulness. Dolphins. Okay, you are

1266
01:04:42,560 --> 01:04:45,480
Speaker 1: bugging if you think dolphins are dumb. I don't know

1267
01:04:45,560 --> 01:04:48,240
Speaker 1: your staff, but I know dolphins. So if you're calling

1268
01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:51,960
Speaker 1: dolphins dumb, then Visual, you might really be the one

1269
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:55,600
Speaker 1: who lacks intelligence. We already know you lack emotional intelligence

1270
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:58,800
Speaker 1: by the way you fired your nine hundred employees. Does

1271
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 1: everything have to be dig nowadays? That's my question? Why

1272
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,760
Speaker 1: does everything have to be so impersonal? Give me the

1273
01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:09,360
Speaker 1: opportunity to do that walk of shame with HR out

1274
01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:12,280
Speaker 1: of the building, Give me that opportunity to curse you

1275
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 1: out in person. How can I tell someone. When one

1276
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 1: door closes, another one opens. If I didn't even get

1277
01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:21,800
Speaker 1: the chance to walk out the first door, what do

1278
01:05:21,880 --> 01:05:24,440
Speaker 1: we say now when somebody gets fired, or when you

1279
01:05:24,480 --> 01:05:26,120
Speaker 1: lose a job, or what do you say when one

1280
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:30,880
Speaker 1: zoom meeting ends another one begins? Come on, man, technology

1281
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:34,560
Speaker 1: is really making the world impersonal. The impersonal Internet has

1282
01:05:34,640 --> 01:05:38,200
Speaker 1: really replaced the human touch. Maybe this is the new wave.

1283
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:42,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I don't like it. Please give

1284
01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 1: Visual Guard, CEO of better dot Com, the biggest he had.

1285
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:52,200
Speaker 1: In fact, let remy ma give him the biggest he

01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:56,960

Speaker 1: joining us. He's the hosting creator of Video Music Box,

1290
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:08,560
Speaker 1: one of the first shows to play hip hop videos.

1291
01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:10,040
Speaker 1: All right, that's probably where a lot of these other

1292
01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,240
Speaker 1: places got the idea from. So we're gonnakick it with

1293

Speaker 1: I'm I'm honored right now. Congratulations, thank you so much

1300
01:06:43,840 --> 01:06:46,800
Speaker 1: for the documentary on Video Music Box. Yeah. I watched

1301
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,680
Speaker 1: it yesterday. I was I was hungover, so I was

1302
01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:50,360
Speaker 1: laying on the couch and I just turned it on.

1303
01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:55,480
Speaker 1: Oh good. Thoroughly enjoyed it, enjoyed its staples here in

1304
01:06:55,520 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 1: the Try State area. I remember it was video music

1305
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:01,439
Speaker 1: back and it was New York hat. Yes, yes, yeah,

1306
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:04,800
Speaker 1: you're showing your age now with New York. I have

1307
01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:08,080
Speaker 1: cable right if I wanted to see videos the only

1308
01:07:08,120 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 1: place back then you really could see it if you

1309
01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:13,280
Speaker 1: caught one of those shows thirty one, Yes Town thirty one.

1310
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 1: And you know, look, this has been something that we've

1311
01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:17,560
Speaker 1: been wanting to do. I've been working on this project

1312
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 1: for ten years. So we went to a bunch of

1313
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:23,240
Speaker 1: hoops to get to showtime and master appeal, and then

1314
01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:25,840
Speaker 1: Naas came in and said, I want to get this right.

1315
01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:27,640
Speaker 1: And I almost cried when he said that, because I

1316
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:30,560
Speaker 1: was like, what are you talking about, bro? How do

1317
01:07:30,640 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 1: you go through all that footage. Yeah, because you have

1318
01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:35,680
Speaker 1: a lot of footage. Now, if you don't know video

1319
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:38,479
Speaker 1: music boxes, it's a video show that started off playing

1320
01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:41,680
Speaker 1: hip hop videos when nobody else would it was it

1321
01:07:41,720 --> 01:07:43,680
Speaker 1: wasn't on cable, so it was Channel thirty one, one

1322
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:45,600
Speaker 1: of the high channels, and after school we'd all run

1323
01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:47,680
Speaker 1: home to go watch it. Yes, but you have footage

1324
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 1: of years. Man, how did you go through the footage

1325
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:51,880
Speaker 1: to decide what you're gonna put in this documentary? Because

1326
01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:54,120
Speaker 1: the documentary was what ninety minutes? Ninety minutes? Yeah, it

1327
01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:56,160
Speaker 1: could have went to me for three hours and it

1328
01:07:56,160 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 1: would have been interesting. But you know, showtime was like easy,

1329
01:07:58,920 --> 01:08:02,439
Speaker 1: take it, easy path. So but you know, we filled

1330
01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:04,800
Speaker 1: up that ninety minutes with so much stuff, and you know,

1331
01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:08,000
Speaker 1: so many interviews were left on the editing floor. M

1332
01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:10,280
Speaker 1: it was difficult to to really shave it all down

1333
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:13,000
Speaker 1: to ninety minutes. But you know, you got the eighties

1334
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:15,160
Speaker 1: and the nineties. I said, the nineties are super important.

1335
01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,519
Speaker 1: Let's make sure that we got the nineties and makes

1336
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:19,240
Speaker 1: make sure we got them more of that than the

1337
01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:21,960
Speaker 1: eighties because there's a lot more people around from the nineties.

1338
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:24,080
Speaker 1: So let's touch on that. And I liked the nineties

1339
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:27,200
Speaker 1: era myself a perspective, such a such a full circle

1340
01:08:27,240 --> 01:08:29,960
Speaker 1: moment for you to you didna this first video? Yes?

1341
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,360
Speaker 1: And then for him to be executive producing this with

1342
01:08:32,360 --> 01:08:35,320
Speaker 1: with Massive hill Man, how did that feel? Um Naas

1343
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 1: came in and I looked at him and I said,

1344
01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:40,960
Speaker 1: you know, you know, this is something that I think

1345
01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:44,240
Speaker 1: you're going to enjoy. And originally he was the executive producer,

1346
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,880
Speaker 1: he wasn't the director, and then he's somewhere in the

1347
01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:49,280
Speaker 1: middle set now I'm going to direct this and I

1348
01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:52,320
Speaker 1: want to get this right, Ralph, and and I just was,

1349
01:08:52,400 --> 01:08:54,040
Speaker 1: you know, it was, you know, like I did. It

1350
01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:56,680
Speaker 1: ain't hard to tell. The first single off of Illmatic,

1351
01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:00,280
Speaker 1: I directed that, and this thing called it ePK was

1352
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:02,360
Speaker 1: really the thing that really broke Nahs in New York

1353
01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:05,480
Speaker 1: because it was like an interview with all the producers

1354
01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:07,240
Speaker 1: and all the people that were involved. I went to

1355
01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:09,519
Speaker 1: his house hung out in Queensbridge. It was just like

1356
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:11,880
Speaker 1: a little short documentary that I did from Nah. So

1357

Speaker 1: you highlighted them in the day. Yeah, But Beasts is

1383
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:19,000

01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,200
Speaker 1: like we weren't like you know people. He did security

1385
01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:23,600
Speaker 1: for all these other people like that. You know, he

1386
01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:26,439
Speaker 1: became known for white cleft and everything. And he's known.

1387
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,960
Speaker 1: He's in the Shots movie and everybody knows him for

1388
01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,040
Speaker 1: shot Is because he blows up the whole place is

1389
01:10:31,040 --> 01:10:35,120
Speaker 1: he's acting, right. But but Beasts was official, you know.

1390
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:37,559
Speaker 1: You know, he's official cat, you know. And and so

1391
01:10:37,600 --> 01:10:40,240
Speaker 1: we kept guys like that. They just hung around it.

1392
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 1: I tell you tell people list a lot of not Beasts,

1393
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:44,519
Speaker 1: but a lot of the other guys that worked with us.

1394
01:10:44,560 --> 01:10:47,520
Speaker 1: All had come home from jail. They needed an opportunity.

1395
01:10:47,640 --> 01:10:48,960
Speaker 1: And I said, loo, I'm gonna give you all the

1396
01:10:48,960 --> 01:10:51,280
Speaker 1: opportunity to work with me, but you can't screw it up,

1397
01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:54,120
Speaker 1: you know. And most of those guys took it and

1398
01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:56,200
Speaker 1: ran with it and did the right thing. Now, Video

1399
01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:58,400
Speaker 1: Music Box was really just in the Tri State area,

1400
01:10:58,439 --> 01:11:00,920
Speaker 1: but people knew about it from all over. Why do

1401
01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 1: you think it never ended up going national? Well, in

1402
01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:06,880
Speaker 1: the dock, I said that I went to MTV and

1403
01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:10,200
Speaker 1: there was this concert called The Fresh Fresh and I

1404
01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:12,559
Speaker 1: went there and I was like, I saw a mixture

1405
01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:15,280
Speaker 1: of everybody, so white people, black people, Asian people. I said, Oh,

1406
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:17,880
Speaker 1: this is happening right now. And I went to MTV

1407
01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:22,080
Speaker 1: and they were like, no, Middle America's not ready for this, Ralph,

1408
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's not happening right now. And I'm like,

1409
01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:26,200
Speaker 1: there's a tour, it's going out. I got the videotapes,

1410
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:27,840
Speaker 1: take a look at it. And they were like, no,

1411
01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 1: you don't need to pull out the tapes. It's okay.

1412
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:33,000
Speaker 1: We already know what we're gonna do. And then two

1413
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,800
Speaker 1: years later they did you know, MTV raps and you know,

1414
01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:38,000
Speaker 1: and people thought, oh, you got me tight right now.

1415
01:11:38,320 --> 01:11:40,680
Speaker 1: And I wasn't tight then. I was gonna type the

1416
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:43,040
Speaker 1: first time because I knew that it was happening already

1417
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:44,920
Speaker 1: and they could have had to jump on it. So

1418
01:11:45,240 --> 01:11:47,920
Speaker 1: my whole career, I've been a little bit early. You

1419
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:49,840
Speaker 1: know how that is. Sometimes you're a little bit early,

1420
01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:52,360
Speaker 1: so you don't really take it and go like, oh man,

1421
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:54,519
Speaker 1: y'are trying to jerk me. I didn't take it like that.

1422
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:56,439
Speaker 1: I just said it was early and then that was it,

1423
01:11:56,520 --> 01:11:59,280
Speaker 1: you know, and then what happens after that and people

1424
01:11:59,320 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 1: do what they do, and when MTV comes out, I

1425
01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:04,080
Speaker 1: mean your MTV Raps comes out, and Rap City and

1426
01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:07,559
Speaker 1: whatever else was out there. You know, it all kind

1427
01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:09,880
Speaker 1: of feels like video music Box to people. But you know,

1428
01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:11,599
Speaker 1: whatever it was gonna be was what it's gonna be.

1429
01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:13,640
Speaker 1: Was there have any network that came to you and

1430
01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:16,280
Speaker 1: wanted to do it once? Remember there was this show

1431
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:20,880
Speaker 1: called um Man, My Girl, D Bonds, uh pump it Up?

1432
01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:25,200
Speaker 1: So they asked me to do that, but they wanted

1433
01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:27,360
Speaker 1: me to stop doing Video Music Box. And I could

1434
01:12:27,360 --> 01:12:30,719
Speaker 1: tell that at the time, Fox was not really serious

1435
01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:32,960
Speaker 1: about this hip hop thing, and I was like, I'm

1436
01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:35,320
Speaker 1: not gonna stop what I'm doing and commit to y'all.

1437
01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:37,840
Speaker 1: And then, you know, six months later, Org, no, it's

1438
01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:40,439
Speaker 1: not working, and then I'm stuck, you know, So I

1439
01:12:40,439 --> 01:12:42,519
Speaker 1: said no. I said, I'm going to continue to do

1440
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:45,320
Speaker 1: my little local show. Why what's the problem, y'all? This

1441
01:12:45,400 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 1: is a national program you don't want me to do

1442
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:49,040
Speaker 1: And they were like, no, you can't do that. And

1443
01:12:49,120 --> 01:12:51,400
Speaker 1: I felt like, you know, I was, I can't do that,

1444
01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:54,400
Speaker 1: and M and D Bonds did it and um, and

1445
01:12:54,439 --> 01:12:56,840
Speaker 1: so we yeah, that's what happened. How did you get paid?

1446
01:12:56,920 --> 01:12:59,479
Speaker 1: Original from video music box? Because there was no commercial,

1447
01:13:00,439 --> 01:13:02,240
Speaker 1: but you would travel, you go for borrow to borrow,

1448
01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:04,760
Speaker 1: you in city to city, club to clubs. You had expenses,

1449
01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,320
Speaker 1: So how did you get paid? How was you making money?

1450
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:10,600
Speaker 1: That's why we started giving parties, you know, and I

1451
01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:13,160
Speaker 1: fat Joe says, Yo, that's what DJ's do. You know,

1452
01:13:13,240 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 1: we don't get paid a lot of money, and we

1453
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:17,679
Speaker 1: do whatever we do to have events and do things,

1454
01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:19,920
Speaker 1: you know. And that's what we did. You know, we

1455
01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:22,320
Speaker 1: were sitting the club and watch a promoter at give

1456
01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:24,640
Speaker 1: giving us like three hundred dollars to show up and

1457
01:13:24,680 --> 01:13:27,479
Speaker 1: he walking away with you know, twenty five thousand and

1458
01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:29,760
Speaker 1: thirty thousand dollars in his pocket in the club, you know,

1459
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:31,880
Speaker 1: And I was like, that don't make sense because everybody

1460
01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:34,400
Speaker 1: came here for us, So we're gonna start doing that,

1461
01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:37,280
Speaker 1: and um, and that's what we did. Me my man, Sam,

1462
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:40,559
Speaker 1: Crazy Sam. All these dudes were like, you know, we

1463
01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:42,479
Speaker 1: was doing three or four parties in the night, you know,

1464
01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:44,800
Speaker 1: and you know, just walking away with the money and

1465
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:47,160
Speaker 1: going okay, we're good. Yeah, you're explaining the ductor you

1466
01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:50,280
Speaker 1: never actually made money off the show, No, no, because

1467
01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:52,360
Speaker 1: it was at first it was on a PBS channel

1468
01:13:52,920 --> 01:13:55,479
Speaker 1: and so it was non commercial, which was great really

1469
01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 1: because it gave us the opportunity to educate where you know,

1470
01:13:59,560 --> 01:14:02,080
Speaker 1: you can't really do that in commercial world, like you know,

1471
01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:03,920
Speaker 1: no time for that. We got a round commercials, bro.

1472
01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:06,920
Speaker 1: We ain't trying to help the community, you know, you know,

1473
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:09,080
Speaker 1: we we wanted to do a lot of that and

1474
01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:10,560
Speaker 1: we did do that in the show. So it was

1475
01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:13,919
Speaker 1: a balance of both and that's how we got through. Um,

1476
01:14:13,960 --> 01:14:16,400
Speaker 1: you know, being on that station, we got more with

1477
01:14:16,479 --> 01:14:18,880
Speaker 1: Uncle Ralph, Ralph McDaniels when we come back. Of course,

1478
01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 1: he's the creator a video music box. It's the Breakfast

1479
01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:26,800
Speaker 1: Club The Morning, The Morning, everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee. Charlomagne,

1480
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:28,679
Speaker 1: the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking

1481
01:14:28,720 --> 01:14:31,160
Speaker 1: it with Uncle Ralph Charlomagne. You know, you got the

1482
01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:35,840

1483
01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:38,600
Speaker 1: and Big in the club all great, But what is

1484
01:14:38,640 --> 01:14:42,360
Speaker 1: your most prized piece of footage? M hm, that's a

1485
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:46,920
Speaker 1: good question. Um. I think for me, Um, it's probably

1486
01:14:47,000 --> 01:14:51,240
Speaker 1: Big and Jay when they did the My Birthday because

1487
01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 1: that was really kind of like out of the blue,

1488
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:57,200
Speaker 1: and Jay came and was hosting it and they and

1489
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:59,439
Speaker 1: they were both at the early stages of their career.

1490
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:02,800
Speaker 1: Was like beginning of Rockefeller and the Big you know,

1491
01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 1: beginning of Big, you know at Bad Boy and and

1492
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:09,040
Speaker 1: they just in the place was crowded. You know, this

1493
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 1: is when people got dressed up and they danced at

1494
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:14,680
Speaker 1: clubs and remember that, and you know, it was just

1495
01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:16,639
Speaker 1: one of those nights where you were like, couldn't call

1496
01:15:16,680 --> 01:15:18,599
Speaker 1: that any better than that. That was that was a

1497
01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:21,000
Speaker 1: beautiful night. You know, it was like everybody, your peers

1498
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:23,599
Speaker 1: were there, you know, just you know, one of those

1499
01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:25,679
Speaker 1: one of those shows that was just it was perfect.

1500
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:28,599
Speaker 1: But you didn't realize that those two individuals would become

1501
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:32,000
Speaker 1: these mythical yeah, you know, beings that they are now

1502
01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:34,960
Speaker 1: right right. You always say, you know, people always ask me,

1503
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,360
Speaker 1: what if Big was alive, what would that be like

1504
01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:40,439
Speaker 1: between him and Jay and Nas, Like what would that

1505
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,040
Speaker 1: you know, what would that look like? And I don't know,

01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:46,360
Speaker 1: you know, like I mean Nas, you know is you know,

1507
01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:48,479
Speaker 1: like I'm a fan of like, you know, poets and

1508
01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:50,880
Speaker 1: you know, and Nas is that that kind of spiritual

1509
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:53,439
Speaker 1: kind of thing. You know. That's how when he started

1510
01:15:53,439 --> 01:15:56,240
Speaker 1: doing my thing, I was like, this is a spiritual dude. Man,

1511
01:15:56,320 --> 01:15:58,000
Speaker 1: Like I'm gonna be in a good place, you know.

1512
01:15:58,000 --> 01:15:59,760
Speaker 1: I see. I used. All I was saying to to

1513
01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:03,360
Speaker 1: was we gotta have that hip hop soul. Bro. No,

1514
01:16:03,640 --> 01:16:05,880
Speaker 1: you know, because I watched documentaries and I'm like, this

1515
01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:09,120
Speaker 1: is mad generic right now. We noticed everybody. If people

1516
01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:11,360
Speaker 1: notice all this information, we don't need to go through this.

1517
01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 1: Let's get into different stories. And that's what I wanted

1518
01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:15,840
Speaker 1: to do with this. And he was like, got it,

1519
01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:18,840
Speaker 1: and he just started working and making sure that the

1520
01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 1: direction took the right direction because we know, yeah it

1521
01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:24,240
Speaker 1: was the Bronx, and we know there was dances, and

1522
01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:26,760
Speaker 1: we know graffiti. We know that already. We there's more

1523
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:28,560
Speaker 1: stories to us than that. You know. To me, the

1524
01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:31,320
Speaker 1: soul comes from your footage, yes, you know what I mean,

1525
01:16:31,360 --> 01:16:34,360
Speaker 1: Like your footage throughout gives it that warmth, makes it

1526
01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:37,680
Speaker 1: you know classic. Yeah, yeah, nah, I mean, And I'm

1527
01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:40,400
Speaker 1: I'm super happy that you know that we still have

1528
01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:42,920
Speaker 1: the footage because I thought about that too when you

1529
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,080
Speaker 1: whenever you showed the room. I'm always thinking about what

1530
01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:46,960
Speaker 1: if he'd lost all of that the way Rizzly lost

1531
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:51,200
Speaker 1: all that, right, Yeah, yeah, rizz you know, loss so

1532
01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:53,360
Speaker 1: many of his masters. But you know, we've been in

1533
01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:55,920
Speaker 1: the last One thing about the pandemic is it got

1534
01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:59,840
Speaker 1: me to be around and really work on digitizing all

1535
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 1: this content. So I just was like, yo, I gotta

1536
01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:05,519
Speaker 1: get this done. And we started in a nonprofit, the

1537
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:08,920
Speaker 1: Video Music Box Collection, and we started raising money for it,

1538
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,320
Speaker 1: and you know, and people started, you know, giving us

1539
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:13,200
Speaker 1: a couple of dollars. We're still raising money for I

1540
01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:16,040
Speaker 1: still need money for people, give me some money. But

1541
01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:18,960
Speaker 1: we that is what helped us get to the point

1542
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:21,519
Speaker 1: where we have. You know, you can look at this

1543
01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,040
Speaker 1: content and be like, wow, it's pretty clear. You know

1544
01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:28,400
Speaker 1: thirty years ago. You know, you remember the DVD day

1545
01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:30,720
Speaker 1: all of that. You know, there's guys out there that

1546
01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:33,760
Speaker 1: can have content that is super important. Man restore it,

1547
01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:36,839
Speaker 1: take care of it. Our history, hip hop history is important.

1548
01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:40,960
Speaker 1: History is black history is important. But you know, sometimes

1549
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:42,960
Speaker 1: our stuff just gets pushed to the side. There's been

1550
01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:46,719
Speaker 1: so many masters and visuals that have been lost over

1551
01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:49,280
Speaker 1: the years, and it's like, wait a minute, somebody just

1552
01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:53,160
Speaker 1: threw that away because they didn't think it was important, Like, well,

1553
01:17:53,200 --> 01:17:56,679
Speaker 1: who did that? You know happens all the time? Part two?

1554
01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:58,360
Speaker 1: Since you said you do have a lot of footage

1555
01:17:58,400 --> 01:18:01,439
Speaker 1: that you weren't even able to use for this one. Yeah,

1556
01:18:01,479 --> 01:18:05,040
Speaker 1: I told um showtime, like yo, we could do two,

1557
01:18:05,240 --> 01:18:07,840
Speaker 1: three more you know, and some other stories that we

1558
01:18:07,840 --> 01:18:09,920
Speaker 1: got in the books. So that's on the plate for

1559
01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:13,200
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. I would like to see artists talk

1560
01:18:13,280 --> 01:18:15,840

1587
01:19:24,040 --> 01:19:27,800
Speaker 1: Jay Cole because he went to Saint John's University and

1588
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:29,560
Speaker 1: was a fan of Video Music Box when he was

1589
01:19:29,600 --> 01:19:32,720
Speaker 1: at Saint John. And Jay Cole was like, man, you know,

Speaker 1: your offense. I know who you are, you know, and

1592
01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:39,479
Speaker 1: this was a young guy and I was like, I

1593
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:41,680
Speaker 1: knew who was music. I was familiar with him, and

1594
01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:43,800
Speaker 1: I was like, yo, I appreciate you man, You're coming

1595
01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:46,439
Speaker 1: up the same thing with Asap Rocky. You know, He's like, yo, man,

1598
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:54,200
Speaker 1: knew his dad, you know. So I see these people

1599
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:57,360
Speaker 1: in in in the in the at their young stage

1600
01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,439
Speaker 1: and now to watch like I did this interview with Fergan,

1601
01:20:00,520 --> 01:20:02,360
Speaker 1: I was like, yo, bro, you're doing some amazing thing.

1602
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:05,519
Speaker 1: He's building furniture and cars and okay, you know, like

1603
01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:08,679
Speaker 1: that's what we did this for for that to happen.

1604
01:20:09,320 --> 01:20:11,160
Speaker 1: I saw j D. I saw j D and some

1605
01:20:11,320 --> 01:20:14,240
Speaker 1: footage with Udini on the duck. I use that footage

1606
01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,120
Speaker 1: all the time too, yet paid every time I use

1607
01:20:16,160 --> 01:20:22,240
Speaker 1: your footage. Yes, how do you want Video Music Box

1608
01:20:22,280 --> 01:20:25,599
Speaker 1: to be remembered? The whole idea of this you're watching

1609
01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:28,760
Speaker 1: Video Music Box film was to not be forgotten because

1610
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:32,240
Speaker 1: I could easily see how our history is forgotten and

1611
01:20:32,600 --> 01:20:35,439
Speaker 1: the importance of us just giving an artist a little

1612
01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:38,080
Speaker 1: bit of a break, a little bit of three minutes

1613
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:40,479
Speaker 1: of a of a music video or a shout out

1614
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,639
Speaker 1: is what catapulted all of these artists that we now

1615
01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:47,360
Speaker 1: know and love into stardom. And you know, making a

1616
01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:49,280
Speaker 1: whole bunch of money, and I was like, we can't

1617
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:51,519
Speaker 1: let that go. You know, my daughter is to produce

1618
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:54,840
Speaker 1: on it. And I said, Kim, you know, we gotta

1619
01:20:54,920 --> 01:20:57,439
Speaker 1: keep this legacy everybody, not just me. You know, we

1620
01:20:57,520 --> 01:20:59,760
Speaker 1: just gotta keep out like we don't do that, you know,

1621
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:03,479
Speaker 1: Black folks, you know, you know, all these other names

1622
01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 1: are on buildings or whatever. They're important. We need to

1623
01:21:07,360 --> 01:21:09,759
Speaker 1: get our names on buildings. We have so many street

1624
01:21:09,840 --> 01:21:13,000
Speaker 1: names being changed. Now. That's the process of starting to

1625
01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:16,479
Speaker 1: do that, you know, getting name changing in community so

1626
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:18,480
Speaker 1: that we see a name or we see a statue

1627
01:21:18,520 --> 01:21:20,760
Speaker 1: that we can relate to us. And that's what this

1628
01:21:20,840 --> 01:21:23,800
Speaker 1: is part of the same concept. And they're certain people

1629
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 1: whenever they call you should always pick up that phone

1630
01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:28,120
Speaker 1: and say, yes, what do you need me for? And

1631
01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:30,760
Speaker 1: you're one of those people. Ralph McDaniel Solf. He's going

1632
01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:33,000
Speaker 1: to put that out there too. Yes, thank you so much,

1633
01:21:33,080 --> 01:21:35,559
Speaker 1: Thank you, Uncle Ralph, Uncle Ralph, we appreciate you for

1634
01:21:35,600 --> 01:21:38,519
Speaker 1: Make sure y'all go watch that documentary on Showtime. It's

1635
01:21:38,560 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 1: on Showtime on demand right now. You're watching Video Music Box.

1636
01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:45,880
Speaker 1: It's Uncle Ralph, Ralph McDaniels, It's the Breakfast Club. Good

1637
01:21:45,880 --> 01:21:54,200
Speaker 1: morning the Breakfast Club holding. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee,

1638
01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:56,360
Speaker 1: Charlomne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club. Let's get

1639
01:21:56,360 --> 01:22:03,760
Speaker 1: to the room as let's talk Ye. This is the

1640
01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:08,439
Speaker 1: rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. So

1641
01:22:08,640 --> 01:22:12,280
Speaker 1: Drake has withdrawn his Grammy nominations. He has gotten two

1642
01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:15,400
Speaker 1: nominations for the twenty twenty two Grammys, and that was

1643
01:22:15,439 --> 01:22:17,400
Speaker 1: for Best Rap Album for Certified Love a Boy and

1644
01:22:17,439 --> 01:22:20,200
Speaker 1: for Best Rap Performance for A Way Too Sexy. Now,

1645
01:22:20,200 --> 01:22:22,679
Speaker 1: we're not sure why that decision was made, but they're

1646
01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:26,080
Speaker 1: going to remove it from the Grammy website in an update.

1647
01:22:26,160 --> 01:22:30,439
Speaker 1: So I'm not sure what happened here, but you know,

1648
01:22:30,479 --> 01:22:33,479
Speaker 1: remember The Weekend didn't get any Grammy nominations last year,

1649
01:22:34,040 --> 01:22:37,720
Speaker 1: and so he criticized the Grammys for that. I know

1650
01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:41,280
Speaker 1: they have a good relationship, and so Drake had made

1651
01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:43,120
Speaker 1: a statement at the time. He said, I think we

1652
01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:45,479
Speaker 1: should stop allowing ourselves to be shocked every year by

1653
01:22:45,479 --> 01:22:48,559
Speaker 1: the disconnect between impactful music and these awards and just

1654
01:22:48,680 --> 01:22:51,640
Speaker 1: accept that what once was the highest form of recognition

1655
01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:54,160
Speaker 1: may no longer matter to the artists that exists now

1656
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:56,880
Speaker 1: and the ones that come after that and he said,

1657
01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:58,840
Speaker 1: this is a great time to start something new that

1658
01:22:58,920 --> 01:23:01,160
Speaker 1: we can build up over town and pass on to

1659
01:23:01,240 --> 01:23:03,839
Speaker 1: the generations to come. I think he cares about the Grammys.

1660
01:23:03,840 --> 01:23:06,160
Speaker 1: I mean, he made a great album in Drake is Spitting.

1661
01:23:06,360 --> 01:23:08,320
Speaker 1: If you listen to a lot of Drake's wraps and

1662
01:23:08,320 --> 01:23:10,880
Speaker 1: what he's rhyming and his features, that boy will fire.

1663

Speaker 1: Gun Kelly, I know you enjoyed this. They did a

1665
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:19,880
Speaker 1: live stream and they were doing a photo shoot wearing

1666
01:23:19,920 --> 01:23:23,920
Speaker 1: their Calvin Klein briefs and so the two of them

1667
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:26,760
Speaker 1: kind of stripped down to their underwear for this campaign

1668
01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:31,520
Speaker 1: and they did like a little fake, funny, spicy photo shoot.

1669
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:34,639
Speaker 1: They took turns posing on the couch and then there

1670
01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:37,080

1696
01:24:43,760 --> 01:24:47,439
Speaker 1: in his hometown. There was a memorial and there were

1697
01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:50,479
Speaker 1: a lot of people that participated to pay their respects

1698
01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:55,679
Speaker 1: to the family. Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Kanye Tyler, the Creator,

1699
01:24:56,280 --> 01:25:00,400
Speaker 1: Drake Kid, Cutty, Frank Ocean Asap Rocky. And so this

1700
01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:04,240
Speaker 1: was all in Chicago at the Museum of Contemporary Art yesterday.

1701
01:25:04,720 --> 01:25:08,000

1702
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:11,080
Speaker 1: what you had to say. As Virgil once said in

1703
01:25:11,080 --> 01:25:15,760
Speaker 1: a slat show, there's no woman. Life is short. And

1704
01:25:15,800 --> 01:25:19,479
Speaker 1: then you can't waste even the day subscribing to what

1705
01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:23,519
Speaker 1: people think you should do. Virgil was the permanent mark

1706
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:27,479
Speaker 1: on the world in which we will never forget. Your

1707
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:31,000
Speaker 1: legacy will continue to flourish in the eyes of woe

1708
01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 1: and great. I'm forever grateful for you. Wrist fell, my

1709
01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:41,120
Speaker 1: sweet and gentle again. Arrest in peace to Virgil. He

1710
01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 1: was only forty one years old when he passed away

1711
01:25:44,120 --> 01:25:46,599
Speaker 1: from cancer. It was a private battle that he did

1712
01:25:46,600 --> 01:25:51,360
Speaker 1: not disclose publicly. Only his closest friends were aware of it. Alright,

1713
01:25:51,400 --> 01:25:54,760
Speaker 1: in this comedy festival, this sounds like something amazing. To

1714
01:25:54,840 --> 01:25:58,000
Speaker 1: go to Netflix is a joke. Now, this festival was

1715
01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:00,919
Speaker 1: supposed to happen last year, but because of the pandemic

1716
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:03,479
Speaker 1: that it didn't happen. But now it is going to happen,

1717
01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:05,639
Speaker 1: and that's gonna be April twenty ninth to May eighth

1718
01:26:05,640 --> 01:26:09,240
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty two. So we know some of the

1719
01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:13,160
Speaker 1: people who would be on that stage. Dave Chappelle, okay,

1720
01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:17,200
Speaker 1: Amy Schumer, Tina Fey, Yeah, Wanda Psykes, Jerry Seinfeld, David

1721
01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:20,240
Speaker 1: let Himan, Chris Rock Ali Wang. Wow. Yes, it's gonna

1722
01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:22,280
Speaker 1: be huge, and so I think that would be something

1723
01:26:22,320 --> 01:26:25,840
Speaker 1: really fun to go to. This is in La Okay,

1724
01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:29,280
Speaker 1: I feel like we need to be there. So in addition,

1725
01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,759
Speaker 1: there's going to be Dion Cole as he's un sorry,

1726
01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:35,919
Speaker 1: Chelsea Handler, Kevin Hart, some of our favorites, Pete Davidson

1727
01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:39,080
Speaker 1: will be there, Ellen DeGeneres, Whill performing. It's what they're

1728
01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:41,280
Speaker 1: calling kind of the Coachella of comedy, but not saying

1729
01:26:41,280 --> 01:26:46,640
Speaker 1: the name Coachella because yeah, no, they're not doing that,

1730
01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:49,240
Speaker 1: all right. So yeah, so that sounds like something really

1731
01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:51,439
Speaker 1: dope to go to. So that is Netflix is a

1732
01:26:51,960 --> 01:26:54,439

Speaker 1: to get justice for her son. And so there's been

1803
01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:17,160
Speaker 1: some more news lately. The cop who did kill her

1804
01:30:17,160 --> 01:30:21,719
Speaker 1: son is actually being indicted, So I think that's important

1805
01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:25,000
Speaker 1: information and we'll be following that case very closely. He

1806
01:30:25,120 --> 01:30:28,479
Speaker 1: was going to subway walking up to his house and

1807
01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:35,080
Speaker 1: hadn't done anything wrong. And so finally the Ohio deputy

1808
01:30:35,120 --> 01:30:38,120
Speaker 1: has been charged with murder in the case of Casey

1809
01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:40,400
Speaker 1: Goodson Jr. And she's been fighting for this for quite

1810
01:30:40,479 --> 01:30:43,439
Speaker 1: some time right now, so there's no body camera, no

1811
01:30:43,560 --> 01:30:47,280
Speaker 1: dash cam footage. Everything that happened is still largely unexplained,

1812
01:30:47,680 --> 01:30:49,479
Speaker 1: and so they were fighting just to even have this

1813
01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:52,760
Speaker 1: case heard. So I'm happy to say that at least

1814
01:30:53,040 --> 01:30:56,040
Speaker 1: that's happening. You know, so far he had a sandwich

1815
01:30:56,080 --> 01:31:00,920
Speaker 1: in his hand, not a gun, and there you have it.

1816
01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:03,320
Speaker 1: So we'll keep you guys updated on that though it's

1817
01:31:03,360 --> 01:31:05,840
Speaker 1: been a really tough year for her, So shout out

1818
01:31:05,840 --> 01:31:10,439
Speaker 1: to Toma Lapaine. All right, well you got a positive note. Yes,

1819
01:31:10,520 --> 01:31:13,360
Speaker 1: and this comes from Arthur mel Robbins who's been on

1820
01:31:13,400 --> 01:31:16,160
Speaker 1: the Breakfast Club before. She said, you don't let go

1821
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:18,519
Speaker 1: of a bad relationship because you stopped caring about them.

1822
01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:21,600
Speaker 1: You let go because you finally start caring about yourself.

1823
01:31:22,240 --> 01:31:24,960
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club, you're finish her. Y'all dumb,
