I've been an avid listener 59 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: for almost eleven years.

Let's get into the comments on the 106 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 2: actual episodes, you know, because we we did do actual episodes, 107 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 2: and we do need you know, we did have your 108 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: comments on them. So the first episode was twenty eight 109 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 2: thirty four Good Faith Everything. It was our feedback show, 110 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 2: and we got two comments on it the first oh 111 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 2: both comments are from Apia. I'm glad I'm not a 112 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 2: celebrity when it comes to my relationship. My relationship, established 113 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: in two thousand and six, is overall pretty good, but surprise, 114 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 2: not perfect. We did never have the We did never 115 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 2: have the big big problems. There was never cheating, nor 116 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: abuse or design sty with money. Love my husband and 117 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 2: I find him attractive and he says the same about me. 118 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 2: We're doing pretty great financially and have pretty cool kids. 119 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 2: What more can anyone want? You might ask. Mister Appia 120 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 2: is a real introverse, so I can choose out. If 121 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 2: I wait until he brings up an issue that has 122 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 2: to be solved, an emotional one or a project in 123 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 2: the house, it doesn't matter, and it's very possible he 124 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 2: never does. I once waited ten years for him to 125 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: take care of a project in our basement and he 126 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 2: never did. So I had to do it eventually or 127 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: I'll do it again. I'm unfortunately not a mind reader. 128 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: His normal mode is not to communicate, So you can 129 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 2: imagine the problems. I started asking open questions to get 130 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: communication going. He gives me short answers to make the 131 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 2: conversation die. If you don't have if you don't have 132 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 2: kids in real estate together, you could just say, okay, 133 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 2: if you don't talk, you don't talk, we don't talk. Unfortunately, 134 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 2: this is not an option here. We have to communicate 135 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 2: the fine, for example, common ground about how to deal 136 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,239 Speaker 2: with something that came up with the kids. Because a teacher, 137 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 2: for example, needs a decision from us, I suggested, of course, 138 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 2: therapy for him in a nice sorry something fun with this. 139 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 2: I suggested therapy for him where is it okay? And 140 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: a nice way to make it easier for him to 141 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: start conversations. He said he sees that it would be good, 142 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 2: but he doesn't try to find a thing arapist, possibly 143 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: because he would have to talk to someone to achieve that. Yeah, 144 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 2: I'm generally a less talking, a better type of person. 145 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 2: If I know I need to talk and I need 146 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 2: to get up for it, I'm ready. But I'm not 147 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 2: necessarily a try to kill the conversation person, just you know, 148 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: like I'm like introversion isn't like always like crippling or 149 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 2: socially whatever. I'm actually really good talking to people one 150 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 2: on one, especially like people I like and love and 151 00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 2: care about, I can talk to them all day. I'm 152 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 2: more of a if I go to a party, it's 153 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 2: overwhelming and I cannot wait to fucking go home type 154 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 2: of situation. 155 00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: And nobody really has deep conversations in those cities. 156 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. Even yeah, if I go to a club the 157 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: music's too loud, you know, stuff like that. I'm not 158 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 2: really huge with that. But like people that get to 159 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: talk to me love me. They love talking to me. 160 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 2: It's you know, it's kind of a problem sometimes, yeah. 161 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 1: Because Rogic finds a lot of extroverts to just claim him. 162 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 2: Like you gonna be my friend. Yeah. And also like 163 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 2: when I go play like basketball or something, and I'm 164 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 2: sitting on the sideline and I'm talking to people kind 165 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: of holding court that you know that motherfuckers will glomb 166 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 2: onto it. They're like, I love this guy. He's funny. 167 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: You should be a Communian. What do you do for 168 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 2: a living? You know that kind of thing. If I 169 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: was famous, or if I was famous for mster apia, 170 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 2: there would be a possibility to take pictures of us 171 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 2: when we are both pissed off, or get some quotes 172 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 2: from me that are bad and put them out of context. 173 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 2: Getting quotes from him would be way harder. It would 174 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: be funny to see the host try only to get 175 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 2: the same short answers they always get. Well, what's funny 176 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 2: about that is it don't take much, so he could 177 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 2: just the fact that he would give a short answer. 178 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 2: If people are projecting, they'll be like, oh, he's saying 179 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: that because he hates her. A big example of this 180 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 2: to me is Ben Affleck and j Lo. The amount 181 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,960 Speaker 2: of articles we don't cover on this show that are 182 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 2: just someone took a candid picture of them and Ben 183 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 2: Affleck has resting bitch face. Yes he does so, Like 184 00:09:57,160 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 2: anytime he's just listening to her, he looks kind of 185 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 2: like pissed off. He always looks that way, and they 186 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 2: like they take the picture out of context and they're 187 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 2: like j Lo and Ben Affleck and heated argument over something, 188 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 2: and it's like, we have no fucking idea if they're arguing, 189 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 2: you know, it's like he's talking with his hands. He 190 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 2: must be angry. It's like, I think we just hate 191 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,319 Speaker 2: women that much. That we're like even Jlo right fellas water. 192 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 2: It's hard to deal with these bitches like. She also replied, 193 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 2: I know that Ride also identifies as an introvert, but 194 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 2: can you talk about your feelings and motives and a 195 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: but you can talk about your feelings and motives in 196 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 2: a great way Ride and start a conversation. So I 197 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 2: don't know, you have to find another word from mister Apia. 198 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 2: Maybe he's a non communicator, a standby mode lover. What 199 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 2: is it? Yeah, I don't know. I guess you know, 200 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 2: it's probably different grades of introversion and maybe he's just 201 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:53,199 Speaker 2: on a different you know, like uh, for he's more 202 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: introverted than I am. And yeah, I think you know maybe, 203 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: and a lot of people are just not necessarily great 204 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 2: verbal communicators. But if y'all have found a way, and 205 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 2: you say you've been together since two thousand and six, 206 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 2: I mean y'all clearly have found a way to communicate. 207 00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 2: So I mean, I know you say it's not perfect, 208 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 2: but I mean nothing's perfect. And also, like you never 209 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 2: the grass is always greener. You could end up with 210 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 2: a motherfucker that dude talk a lot, and you might 211 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: be like god, damn, shut the fuck up? Why are 212 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 2: you talking so fucking much? Because I've seen that happen too, 213 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 2: where you think you think you want something and you 214 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: just don't, you know. I like Karen powers through and 215 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 2: talks a lot, even when I'm like trying to do something, 216 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: But honestly, I would prefer that don't. I don't want 217 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: I'm too anxious of a person and too empathic to 218 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 2: be with somebody that's like just always fucking quiet and 219 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: always in their own head and they don't want to talk, 220 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: cause then I become the annoying like you good, everything 221 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 2: all right, you know what's going on over there, and 222 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 2: nobody wants to deal with that kind of insecurity and shit, 223 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: So like you just got to pick your poison. And 224 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 2: that means sometimes I need to pause a video game 225 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: or turn the podcast off. Fuck it, it's fine. I'd 226 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 2: rather have that than the other way. I'm better than 227 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 2: I used to, y'all lives, It's okay. 228 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 3: I'm not. 229 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 2: This is not a complaint. You don't have to you 230 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: don't have to justify it's not a complaint. I'm not. 231 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: There is not no no sneak this or nothing. I 232 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 2: just I think people just don't balance it out in 233 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 2: their minds of like, there's another side of this where 234 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 2: I think I want that, but do you? 235 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: I don't know, right, And also as an extrovert, I 236 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: had to understand how to lick outside of myself and 237 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: actually observe and pay attention to what's happening in the room. 238 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: I've been around extroverts that don't pay attention to shifts 239 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: and changes in the room, and they don't pay attention 240 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: to people getting bored. They don't pay attention to people 241 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: not wanting to beat there, like, they don't pick up 242 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: on any social cues or anything like that. So of 243 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: the years, I've learned to actually pick up on those 244 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: things in the just so, yes, I'm a pure extrovert, 245 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: but as I've got older, I can turn it on 246 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: and turn it off. And it's people that have been 247 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: around me that think I was almost introvert because I 248 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: know in certain situations it's best to check the fuck 249 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: up and don't nobody give a fuck about what I 250 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: got to say at this period of time, and it's 251 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: okay to let the silence fall and shit like that, 252 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: Like it's okay. Every second does not have to be 253 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: consumed with your words. 254 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 2: Uh, on the on YouTube, Carina says, Hey, Ryd and Karen, 255 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: me and my kid went in October to both get 256 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 2: flew in COVID shots at our local pharmacy. I was 257 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 2: surprised at the time and how long the line was 258 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 2: a people with appointments. Yeah, that is good. I think Listen, 259 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 2: I think there are more people than there are people 260 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 2: who are like sober minded and staying up to date 261 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 2: on their vaccines, paying attention to the news. And I 262 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 2: think there's also this extreme of people that are like 263 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 2: so super concerned about COVID still that they're not doing anything. 264 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 2: And I'm sure they're getting vaccinated as well, even if 265 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 2: they're staying indoors and wearing masks and all that stuff. 266 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 2: One hundred percent of time, not knocking those people, just 267 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,960 Speaker 2: saying like those people, those are the groups of people 268 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 2: getting vaccinated. Yes, And then there's just a lot of 269 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 2: people who don't care. So it's not nobody, We're not alone. 270 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 2: It's just the percentage is a lot lower than I 271 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 2: think it should be. But that's probably the same with 272 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 2: the flu and all that stuff. 273 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I knows, truth be told because we don't actually 274 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: really we have stats, statistics, but we don't really keep 275 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 1: good stats and statistics, and a lot of times the 276 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: people that are kind of I'm not doing it type 277 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 1: of people, particularly if you're online, that'll allowedest most people 278 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 1: that are doing their own the dial getting the shots 279 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: of getting vaccinated, most of them people they just do 280 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: it and they don't say anything. So people just act 281 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: like these people just don't exist, but we do that. 282 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 2: I think the extremes are the loudest on both sides 283 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 2: because also I see a lot of like, you know, 284 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: it's COVID out there, don't do nothing people too, and 285 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: you know, okay, yeah, those people have spent a lot 286 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 2: of time arguing with each other online for two or 287 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:13,359 Speaker 2: three years, and so they're gonna they're you know, I'm 288 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 2: I ain't gonna name no names. But like I saw 289 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 2: Democracy Now put out a tweet that was like an 290 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 2: update on like some current COVID things that are happening, 291 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 2: the rise of COVID, and I saw people like quoting 292 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 2: at them, yelling at them like you acted like COVID 293 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 2: didn't exist for two years. You are responsible and culpable 294 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 2: in this, And I was like, Okay, that's a level 295 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 2: of fucking insanity. That is happening right there, as like 296 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 2: that's not healthy anymore than Aaron Rodgers to me, like 297 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:47,320 Speaker 2: that's too extreme, but at any rate. Yeah, so, but yeah, 298 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: I'm glad that y'all did get vaccinated. They said, we're 299 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 2: the but we're the only ones in our family social 300 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 2: circles who are current. Yeah, a lot of people just aren't, 301 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 2: aren't keeping up the date, and uh yeah, it's just 302 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: very unfortunate. The poe was do you listen to did 303 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 2: you listen to or watch the Cat Williams interview? Okay, 304 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 2: I listened to clips, all right, so I got it 305 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 2: through you and clips online, So apparently knew sixty two 306 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 2: percent say yes, thirty eight percent say no, but you do. 307 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 2: Ray is a good point. I didn't say did you 308 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 2: watch the whole interview?

Thank Yeah. 353 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: I don't even take it personally. 354 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 2: Can Nicole says, happy anniversary. Dave Chappelle is doing the thing, 355 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 2: the very thing he criticized Hannah Gassie for doing for 356 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 2: the past few specials. I wasn't offended, but I did 357 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 2: not laugh aloud either. It was lazy. Yeah, I think 358 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 2: the more I think about the special now, I've had 359 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks to think about it, and I've 360 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 2: watched some other specials that I thought were better or good. 361 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 2: I think What's Shape did for me is he successfully 362 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 2: lowered the bar of my expectations for him to well, 363 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 2: at least he wrote jokes, and I don't think that's 364 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 2: a good thing actually, And I'm not one of these 365 00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 2: people that gets offended. I'm not offended. I've never been 366 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 2: offended at any of his specials. I don't know that 367 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 2: I've ever really watched the Communion that offended me. That's 368 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 2: just not that's not how I My reverence and understanding 369 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 2: of stand up is one that does not allow for 370 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 2: me to truly be offended, because my understanding is that 371 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 2: if your god on the stage, you're at least trying 372 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 2: to entertain me, and hopefully you're trying to be funny 373 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 2: and tell jokes. Dave lost that for like three or 374 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 2: four specials in a row where he just spent a 375 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 2: lot of time not telling jokes. This last special, while 376 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 2: it's probably his second best Netflix Special. It's nowhere near 377 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: his peak. To me, it's just like, okay, he's back 378 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 2: to at least trying to tell jokes, and he's so 379 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 2: aware that people are gonna be pissed. His audience is 380 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 2: coming for people to be pissed, and both meanings of coming. 381 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 6: And. 382 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 2: Something has been lost. Like I said, I listen to 383 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: people like I was listening to Firestarter and they were 384 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 2: talking about the Special and it's not it's not really 385 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 2: a commentary on like the special or the jokes anymore. 386 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 2: It's a meta commentary on like society and people getting 387 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 2: offended and is he really transphobic or is he not? 388 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 2: Or is that allowed or not? And why why is 389 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 2: it okay? You know for him to be like super 390 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 2: you know, dogmatic about race, but gender and LGBTQ issues, 391 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 2: he could be like, fuck those people, they are the 392 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 2: butt of the joke. That is funny. But you know, 393 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 2: when I was listening to Jails Covan Rain on my 394 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 2: parade talk about the Special and uh, what's my other? 395 00:20:59,280 --> 00:20:59,399 Speaker 1: Uh? 396 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: Rick jervasas Special, and you know, same thing, Like it's 397 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: it's no longer really about the specials. It's just about 398 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 2: like how pissed our people should they be pissed, and 399 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 2: he's kind of created a monster and it can't be 400 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 2: put back in the box. So that's why you got 401 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 2: people that tune in for three seconds to tell me 402 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 2: how much they were turned off and don't watch it, 403 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,919 Speaker 2: and then they write for days on Facebook and Twitter 404 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 2: about how much they don't watch it because they're such 405 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,679 Speaker 2: great people. And then you have people that watch it, 406 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 2: but then they spend all day fighting on social media 407 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 2: being like, you're not gonna tell me that what he 408 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: can say, he's a genius. He's a genius, and it's like, 409 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 2: that's not fun for me either. I've never watched the 410 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 2: comedy special and wanted to do that if I had 411 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 2: a good time. I've never left someone stand up show 412 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 2: and wanted to fight people online about it or yell 413 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 2: at people or get on the podcast and you know, 414 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 2: get all high and mighty about it. That's not what 415 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 2: I got into this, you know, liking stand up for. 416 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 2: And then you have people like Caring that just don't 417 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 2: even watch it because they're just so turned off by 418 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 2: the conversation that has been created. And I feel sad 419 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 2: that Dave gave in to that, because I think he 420 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 2: legitimately is a comedic genius. I think his better work 421 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: and best work came from like a self informed place 422 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: of shit that he had experienced, and I think his 423 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 2: best jokes seem to come from that, even if he 424 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 2: would disagree. And I think this kind of bugs Bunny 425 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,679 Speaker 2: poking at the woke people in the liberals blah blah. 426 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 2: I think I've seen so many regressive, not funny people 427 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,679 Speaker 2: do it that even his material is still hacked me. 428 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 2: It's still the same type of material that these other 429 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 2: comedians that are not as good as Dave Chappelle do. 430 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 2: But if you keep doing this for this long, at 431 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 2: what point do I have to stop saying they're not 432 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 2: as good as you and go you're about as good 433 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 2: as them. You're on that kind of Ricky Gervais, look 434 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 2: at me poking the liberals thing. Even if I thought 435 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: this last special, at least you were trying to tell 436 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 2: jokes as opposed to like preaching to me for a 437 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 2: fucking hour. So I did appreciate him trying to tell jokes, 438 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 2: but at this point, I'm just I'm mis wistful for 439 00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 2: what he used to mean. 440 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:23,920 Speaker 1: I agree, And also I think for me, I've watched several. 441 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: I don't watch as many comedy specials as you do, 442 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 1: but I do. I have watched some comedy specials, particularly 443 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: over the last year.

It didn't make sense. I still 560 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 2: don't feel right about what they did to Bobby. Maybe 561 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 2: I missed some evidence or something. I wasn't on trial 562 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 2: at the trial. I wasn't in a jersey, so maybe 563 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: there's some evidence that didn't make it to the general public. 564 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 2: But I never really understood why he went to jail 565 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 2: so long right, Happy fourteen potterversary, says James, who said 566 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 2: he says, King Rod and Queen Karen, thank you well, 567 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 2: little King and queen emojis, and lastly, Miss Barnes says, 568 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 2: happy listener since twenty eighteen.

That 570 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 2: was our feedback episode. We did four this week, Break 571 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 2: some Rules twenty eight thirty five. We had six comments. 572 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,640 Speaker 2: Let's get into them, and says listen to this on 573 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 2: a Monday morning. Your advice about the people who break 574 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 2: the rules are the ones who make the new rules. 575 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 2: It's perfect motivation. I even quoted you on my socials 576 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 2: Let's go. And also I agree with your strategy of 577 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 2: taking the time to grow on your own instead of 578 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 2: trying to get support from the start. The best advice 579 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 2: I ever got was that I have to prove my 580 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 2: good idea actually is good before other people will support it. 581 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 2: No one would recognize your vision without proof, and that 582 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,080 Speaker 2: proof can only come from putting in the work hard, yes, 583 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 2: but necessary. Yeah. I have a saying that I for 584 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 2: a long time, which is most people are not going 585 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,800 Speaker 2: to help you until it's too late, like till you 586 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 2: don't need to help. You don't need to help now. 587 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean that their help isn't useful. Or that 588 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 2: you can't like grow with that. But just a lot 589 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 2: of times people offer you stuff and it's not really 590 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 2: mutually beneficial because it's like you proven it, you can 591 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 2: do this shit by yourself, and now they just see 592 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 2: that you could prove it, and they're like, I want 593 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,800 Speaker 2: to be down with that energy, with that person, with 594 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 2: their whatever goals they have, because I think they're going 595 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 2: to accomplish these goals and bigger things later, and so 596 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 2: they try to hop on and discernment is really your 597 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: your tool there discerning the people that are just leeches 598 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 2: and hoppers on that are dragging you down and the 599 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 2: people that actually want to build something together that are 600 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 2: similar mindset and similar work ethic. It's hard to do, 601 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 2: but you definitely need to parse it out. Happy anniversary 602 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 2: to The black Out Tilts. I remember the first episode 603 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 2: I listened to. It was the Southern accents that got me. 604 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,120 Speaker 2: I live in the South, so it felt comfortable. It 605 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 2: was the one where you were dealing with some guy 606 00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 2: who complained about Karen's voice you took the time to 607 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,360 Speaker 2: correct him. I loved it. That reminds me I need 608 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 2: to update my autunes of you thank you and think yeah, 609 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 2: y'all know. I don't play about that, so I don't 610 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 2: remember what it was, but you know, hopefully they got 611 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 2: that straight. I don't remember anybody else bringing it up, 612 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 2: so it's probably fine. 613 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: And that has a lot to do with why we 614 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: do the five star reviews the way we do. Yeah, 615 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,160 Speaker 1: we like look lead five star reviews and be nice, 616 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 1: if not not gonna read them on the air. Yeah. 617 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 2: And there's also just people that have internalized anti blackness 618 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 2: and all kinds of classism and shit that don't understand, 619 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 2: like their lack of affection for the southern black voice 620 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 2: and associating it with illiteracy, slavery, uh, just a bunch 621 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 2: of regressive things. It is a it is very anti black, 622 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 2: Yes it is. And it's because it's not just about 623 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,280 Speaker 2: the regional dialect. It's the assumptions. And honestly, it kind 624 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 2: of extends to a lot of regional dialects if we're 625 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 2: being frank, like, there's people that hear voices of somebody 626 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 2: in there from New York and they just assume, like 627 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 2: if you talk a certain type of way from New 628 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 2: York using black slang and all of you know, it's like, oh, well, 629 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 2: clearly this person is not intelligent. They can't. And it's like, 630 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 2: how many fucking times you have to be proven wrong? 631 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 2: And how many things have you missed in your life 632 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 2: because you prejudged and you were fucking wrong? You could 633 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 2: have learned something. I listened to uh Teava Queen and 634 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 2: j podcast and they're both black women from New York 635 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 2: and you know, they got heavy New York accents. But 636 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 2: I love that. I have love and affection for that 637 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 2: because it feels authentic if that's where they're from. And 638 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 2: you know, I don't know how what it's like, why 639 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 2: do you want to write to sound like the girl 640 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 2: on TikTok Voice? 641 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: You know? 642 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 2: Uh he'll Sean says, do y'all remember when Kat Williams 643 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: got beat up by a kid after he threw the 644 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 2: first punch. Yeah, and I'm pretty sure we brought it 645 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 2: up when we talked about it on the pre game, 646 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 2: but uh yeah, yeah it is.

So what you're gonna do now, right, 653 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 2: Apia says, I'm confused by the one verdict. I'm fucking 654 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,240 Speaker 2: with black people. You judge the event where people protested 655 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 2: and the bad legislation banning black history was taken back, 656 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 2: and you gave it the worst rating. But this was good. 657 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:19,359 Speaker 2: The banning was of course the worst. Yeah, I think 658 00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 2: that was the one where they were gonna ban black 659 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,839 Speaker 2: history being taught, not books, but the actual class. So 660 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 2: it was they and then they relented because people got upset. 661 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 2: But if I'm not mistaken in that article, they said 662 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 2: they basically still planned and have the power to ban 663 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 2: those classes. And it's still gonna fuck with me. The 664 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 2: answer isn't like it's not, it's how much do you 665 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 2: feel fucked with? And the fact that my history, the 666 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 2: history of my people in America is something that is 667 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 2: optional and seen as political and to be taken out 668 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 2: because of the feelings of white children, alleged feelings of 669 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 2: white children. It's really about their parents, right, it fucks 670 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 2: with me. And so sometimes it doesn't matter whether the 671 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 2: thing is good or bad that is happening because if 672 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 2: I'm being honest. The fact that we're still even debating 673 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,799 Speaker 2: this that is still up as an option. If it's 674 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 2: gonna it's drakaris it is. I am so angry about 675 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:25,759 Speaker 2: this and that people let this happen to our country, 676 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 2: and that people think that we can just apathy our 677 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 2: way out of this shit. And you may see that 678 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 2: a lot of these ratings are gonna be pretty angry 679 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four because looking around at some of 680 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 2: the happenings politically, I'm already pre mad. I'm trying not 681 00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 2: to just be ranting all the time, and I try 682 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 2: to keep that down on the pod, But sir, in general, 683 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 2: this is gonna be a you might see some higher ratings, 684 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 2: is what I'm saying. Breaking rules is obviously the right 685 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 2: thing to do for real Success's important to add that 686 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 2: when you you don't know what rules to break for success, 687 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 2: and you will probably have to try multiple times, this 688 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 2: is normal yet not just that, but as I said 689 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,359 Speaker 2: on the show, you will probably fail because most people 690 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 2: will fail regardless of which rules you break, especially if 691 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,320 Speaker 2: your goal is to be like super huge or something 692 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 2: like that, that it's very rare for anyone to get 693 00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 2: you probably will fail no matter what rules you break, 694 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 2: but at least break the rules that are authentic to 695 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 2: yourself so you can have fun and live in that 696 00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 2: and if you do make it, you won't have you 697 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 2: will have made it in a comfortable way that you 698 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 2: don't have to fake. That's what happened with us, the 699 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 2: way we have established ourselves. And we talked to podcasters 700 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 2: all the time that used to interview us, and they 701 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 2: would say stuff like, how do y'all, you know, like, 702 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 2: keep from arguing on the show and shit, And I'm like, 703 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 2: cause we just never We aren't those people anyway, So 704 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 2: it's not like we turned the mics on them.

So that's what we've been doing, 816 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 2: and you know, and even before this physical training ship, 817 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 2: I've still been just going to the wild three, four 818 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:55,760 Speaker 2: or five times a week and like shooting around walking, 819 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 2: you know, and on top of you know, I still 820 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 2: have my peloton here, still have the virtual VR headset stuff. 821 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 2: I just want to get back active. 822 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: Man. 823 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 2: I can't keep waiting on basketball to come back, because 824 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:11,680 Speaker 2: I don't know if these niggas are ever coming back 825 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 2: to playing basketball at the time that I play. 826 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 1: Right and and the times that you desire. And like 827 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 1: I said, it's it's been an adjustment, like I say, 828 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 1: And Uh, the thing is, it's a process, and it's 829 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 1: very hard to go through the process. And when you 830 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 1: do these things, people think you just have to do 831 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 1: these extreme things. You don't. You can just basically try things. 832 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: You like it great, and you could just put it 833 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: into your into your everyday routines where it's not like 834 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,240 Speaker 1: this big shift because if you do big sweeping changes, 835 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 1: you're not gonna stick with it. You know yourself and 836 00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: you know what you're gonna do and what you ain't 837 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:46,840 Speaker 1: gonna do. So you have to do things that's convenient 838 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,240 Speaker 1: for you, that fits in the timeframe for you, and 839 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 1: and this what's best for your life, versus doing all 840 00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: these extreme things out there and then you don't stick 841 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: to Well. 842 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 2: It's just different people are different. Some people do do that. 843 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 2: Some people do make extreme changes and it fucking works 844 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,960 Speaker 2: for them. But I'm just trying something that I've never 845 00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:08,479 Speaker 2: tried before to see if it works for me. So 846 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 2: you know, like you can't knock it if you I mean, 847 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:13,799 Speaker 2: if you've never fucking tried it. Why It's like when 848 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 2: people knock New Year's resolutions but they've never done one, 849 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 2: so then like you kind of tell yourself you can't 850 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:24,719 Speaker 2: do one. Basically, like I'm pulling I'm pouring into that 851 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 2: New Year's resolution energy and being like, let's see what happens. 852 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 2: Maybe I'll stick with it, maybe I don't. But what 853 00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 2: was I gonna do before is nothing, right, so I 854 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 2: might as well try something. Uh, But yeah, I just 855 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,919 Speaker 2: want to feel I want to feel good. That's it. 856 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,320 Speaker 2: Brooklyn Shoe Babe says, wasn't there a rape scene in 857 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:44,399 Speaker 2: Players Club? Didn't Ice Cube have a hand in making 858 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 2: that movie? He did, I don't remember that scene and 859 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 2: how graphic it was and whatnot? His thing in his 860 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 2: He did not say, and I think the word choices people. 861 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,680 Speaker 2: It went over people's head. He didn't say he wouldn't 862 00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:01,319 Speaker 2: put a rape scene in the movie. He said one 863 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 2: he doesn't like showing that stuff, meaning he wouldn't want 864 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 2: to show like the graphic like assault of Someoneight. 865 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: So you quote maybe the aftermath, but not the right right, 866 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 1: not the actual even. 867 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 2: According to him, this is what he said. I haven't 868 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 2: watched Players Club in a long time, long time, but 869 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 2: I just don't and I don't remember the scene specifically, 870 00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 2: but you know, if you cut away or you hear 871 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 2: somebody screaming or something, it sounds like that's what he 872 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 2: was talking about doing in Friday. But so his thing 873 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 2: was like, I wasn't going to actually show Kat Williams's 874 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,759 Speaker 2: character being sexually assaulted. That's not funny to me. But 875 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:46,160 Speaker 2: he is saying that the idea of him being sexually 876 00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 2: assaulted in that bathroom that would have been in the 877 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 2: script and possibly in the film without showing it, and 878 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 2: been played for laughs. I'm not here to really debate 879 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 2: all that shit. I you know, times change and people 880 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 2: change and all this shit. So and I know some 881 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:08,239 Speaker 2: people have found jokes about rape hilarious in movies and 882 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 2: TV and comedy, and some people have never found that 883 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 2: shit funny. Debate amongst yourselves is not for me. I 884 00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 2: don't make those movies anyway. Eve says, I'm happy. Haley 885 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:20,600 Speaker 2: Bailey announced her pregnancy on her terms. I follow her 886 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,360 Speaker 2: on social media.

He never 928 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,319 Speaker 2: claimed to have written the part. He enhanced the part. 929 00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 2: I mean I did listen to it, and yeah, that's fine, man. 930 00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 2: I heard him used in the written thing interchangeably, and 931 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,720 Speaker 2: I think maybe you gotta go back and listen again. Well, 932 00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:09,799 Speaker 2: you know, because he did say no one else could 933 00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 2: have played this part, because I wrote this part. And 934 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:16,279 Speaker 2: I think what he's saying is his enhancement, his comedian 935 00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 2: whatever is the crux of that character. And I don't 936 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 2: think that him and ice Cube were like, I don't 937 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 2: think either one of them was lying or anything. And 938 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:30,879 Speaker 2: just feel like, uh, some wires got crossed there. I don't. 939 00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 2: I don't think that makes anybody necessarily wrong there. And 940 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 2: then Carriages put a bunch of emojis for celebrations or something. 941 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know. Uh, Shriff isn't doing his 942 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 2: own thing with the emojis. Okay, all right, let's get 943 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 2: to the next two episodes. But first I need to 944 00:49:48,600 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 2: play some music so we can get this motherfucking money. 945 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 2: All right, let's get to the next episode, twenty eight 946 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:33,879 Speaker 2: thirty six be His Corretta four comments. Apple says, I'm 947 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,200 Speaker 2: concerned with how Jonathan Major is talking about his new 948 00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:39,799 Speaker 2: girlfriend because I recognize an unhealthy dynamic. I hope I'm 949 00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:42,279 Speaker 2: wrong and they are fine or fake or and I'm 950 00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:45,439 Speaker 2: just reminded of some stuff exper I experienced in one 951 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:48,400 Speaker 2: of bad relationship in the past. He builds her up 952 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,319 Speaker 2: as his savior. He says, she is an angel, not 953 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:53,840 Speaker 2: like all the other bitches in the past. She is 954 00:50:53,880 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 2: a good woman. There's a lot for such a There's 955 00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:58,840 Speaker 2: a lot for such a short relationship, too much and 956 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,960 Speaker 2: too fast. The relationship goes bad, she will if she 957 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 2: is like many other women, hesitate to leave out of guilt. 958 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 2: She can't leave him because he would collapse. She has 959 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:10,400 Speaker 2: to save him with love, and she doesn't want to 960 00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:12,400 Speaker 2: be like all the other bad women who failed him. 961 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,360 Speaker 2: That's a pretty bad dynamic. But as I said, I 962 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,320 Speaker 2: hope I'm wrong. Yeah, I have no idea. Once again, 963 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:20,279 Speaker 2: with these grown up ass strangers that we don't really know, 964 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 2: that just act for a living. I do think the 965 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 2: way he talks about her is weird, especially with them 966 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,239 Speaker 2: being together supposedly for such a short period of time. 967 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 2: Meghan Good is basically silently just stood by his side 968 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 2: through all the slings and arrows and whatnot. And who 969 00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 2: was it? It was Nahima from ta with Queen and 970 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:52,880 Speaker 2: j Naima on Twitter that made such a great point 971 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 2: that I think it was her. I'm pretty sure it 972 00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 2: was her. But when he brings up that Corretta shit 973 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:04,760 Speaker 2: on National TV about Megan Good, that is also definitively 974 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:10,080 Speaker 2: a There's almost no way his ex would not see that, 975 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:14,239 Speaker 2: and it's kind of a shot at her. I can see, like, 976 00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 2: this woman is the woman you wouldn't be for me, 977 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 2: which says a lot, Which says a lot. Now I 978 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 2: know she's a white woman. Were supposed to hate him 979 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 2: and the shit, but I don't really go for all that. 980 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 2: If somebody got you know, it's an abusive relationship, I'm 981 00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:29,840 Speaker 2: not like, well, you're a white bitch too bad, Like 982 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 2: it's I just feel like that's all very unfortunate shit. 983 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:36,400 Speaker 2: And time will tell on Jonathan Mangers and all that stuff. 984 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 2: If he's genuinely changes like the Ray Rice thing, but 985 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 2: so far it doesn't sound like he feels like he 986 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 2: did much wrong. And even the earlier stuff with the 987 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 2: text message about don't go to the hospital, people don't 988 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:54,880 Speaker 2: seem that concerned about that, and I find that weird. 989 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:57,000 Speaker 2: I don't know why, but that bothers me more than 990 00:52:57,040 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 2: the the if you don't feel so strongly about the 991 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,920 Speaker 2: night of the in question, I don't blame you. I 992 00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 2: really think that is confusing. I don't know what happened. 993 00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 2: I really don't, but the text messages about don't go 994 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,200 Speaker 2: to the hospital scene kind of cutting dry to me, Like, 995 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,719 Speaker 2: I understand it's not a beyond a reasonable doubt thing, 996 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,840 Speaker 2: but I can't he'd ever offer the explanation that made sense, 997 00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 2: and they don't seem to be asking him to give 998 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:27,200 Speaker 2: an explanation that makes sense about what the fuck was 999 00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:31,040 Speaker 2: he talking about? And so you know, and in that 1000 00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:34,480 Speaker 2: interview when he pivots to like, I think I would 1001 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 2: have what I learned from that night is I needed 1002 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:40,760 Speaker 2: to just get out the car or something, And I'm like, yeah, 1003 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 2: and then I shouldn't have ignored the red flags. I'm like, 1004 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:47,680 Speaker 2: the red flags of you put in her need to 1005 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 2: go to the hospital. These flags, like, what the fuck 1006 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:57,000 Speaker 2: is happening in my well? This is crazy? Right, Justin says. 1007 00:53:57,440 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 2: The thing that's wild about the whole color Purple and 1008 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,000 Speaker 2: Oprah stuff is that most of the people talk about 1009 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,520 Speaker 2: about how Oprah didn't do anything to help, refuse to 1010 00:54:03,719 --> 00:54:05,920 Speaker 2: or haven't even seen the movie because it's black trauma, 1011 00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 2: porn or whatever excuse they have to not see the movie. Right, 1012 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 2: Just look at the box office. The films made about 1013 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 2: fifty six million, and I've seen people say how underpaid 1014 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 2: to Roger has always been and she should be making 1015 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:18,920 Speaker 2: just as much as Brad Pitt or whoever, but they 1016 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:24,239 Speaker 2: won't see the movie she's in. Yeah, I don't. Yeah, 1017 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. I don't really have much 1018 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 2: to push back on that. I just think it's a 1019 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:35,680 Speaker 2: complicated thing, and the movie budget slash how much actors 1020 00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:40,200 Speaker 2: make things already a rig game, rig playing field. There 1021 00:54:40,239 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 2: are actors who lose the most money in Hollywood who 1022 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,560 Speaker 2: also get paid some of the most money in Hollywood. 1023 00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 2: And there's no rhyme or reason to it. You know, 1024 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 2: I forget who I was on the list at the time, 1025 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 2: but I know Will Smith was on the list for 1026 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 2: a long time of people that we associate with, Oh 1027 00:54:58,640 --> 00:55:01,280 Speaker 2: my God, movie star. And then they just have certain 1028 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,160 Speaker 2: projects that just keep losing money and they keep getting 1029 00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 2: big paydays to lose money again, and it's not really 1030 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 2: reflecting on their acting ability. Could just be the projects 1031 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 2: they pick right, budget promotion, could be a lot of stuff. 1032 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 2: But I think we all can agree that black actresses 1033 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,840 Speaker 2: are underpaid and kind of get the shit into the 1034 00:55:22,360 --> 00:55:24,799 Speaker 2: stick with a lot of these things, and so I 1035 00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:29,600 Speaker 2: think that's where you're gonna find common ground. But yeah, 1036 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:36,160 Speaker 2: I will always have a bit of annoyance at black 1037 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:42,800 Speaker 2: people who complain about black trauma movies or black history movies, 1038 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 2: or black or slavery movies or what. I have a 1039 00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:47,800 Speaker 2: bone to pick with them to a certain extent, because 1040 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,839 Speaker 2: a lot of that work, especially when it's made for 1041 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 2: us and by us, it's good work, right, and there's 1042 00:55:55,360 --> 00:55:58,200 Speaker 2: no shame in it. It's not the Hollywood or the 1043 00:55:58,200 --> 00:56:01,359 Speaker 2: Illuminati or anybody trying to like get you right. 1044 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 1: And I still feel like this. You get in your 1045 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,840 Speaker 1: black white people, you get in your feelings about it, 1046 00:56:05,880 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, because you get in your 1047 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:08,760 Speaker 1: feelings about it. It cannot exist. 1048 00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,400 Speaker 2: And the last thing is I don't say shit like 1049 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 2: black trauma because I find that to be ridiculous because 1050 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:20,160 Speaker 2: the vast majority of movies have some level of trauma 1051 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 2: in them, even if it's a rom com and it's 1052 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 2: just someone getting cheated on. What makes it black? You 1053 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 2: know what I mean? Whenever it's some black people struggling, 1054 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:33,000 Speaker 2: it's trauma. It's black trauma. But when the motherfucking they 1055 00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:35,360 Speaker 2: make the movie about the poor people that work at Amazon, 1056 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 2: that's just a movie. And no one's talking about white trauma. 1057 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,200 Speaker 2: All these fucking movies about opioids and shit like that, 1058 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:44,080 Speaker 2: and these trailer park at like, we don't call eight 1059 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:47,560 Speaker 2: mile white trauma. So stop, just stop, man. Black people 1060 00:56:47,600 --> 00:56:50,319 Speaker 2: are We're allowed to paint with every brush in our 1061 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 2: tool kit as well, and stop fucking limiting us. You 1062 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,279 Speaker 2: don't have to watch it. I'm cool with that. That's 1063 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 2: why I'm not gonna join you and be like, y'all 1064 00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 2: won't even watch the movie. Don't watch it if you 1065 00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:01,919 Speaker 2: don't want to, but don't just don't make me put 1066 00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:06,520 Speaker 2: me as a creative in a fucking box. Mdaria says, 1067 00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 2: I hope Jonathan Major gets help. I truly do this 1068 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:12,000 Speaker 2: person needs help. It seems like everyone forgot the initial 1069 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 2: assault conversation, that text messages where he told her not 1070 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:16,280 Speaker 2: to go to the hospital for the first time, and 1071 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 2: speaking of Karretta, the internet says he was civil rights attractive, 1072 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,840 Speaker 2: so now he needs his black woman to hold him down. 1073 00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:25,760 Speaker 2: Everyone wants a Caretta, But are you a Martin Luther King? 1074 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, hey, But also Martin Luther King 1075 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 2: was cheating even say y'all ain't shit for that show 1076 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:37,240 Speaker 2: or Jonathan Major's obsession with Coretta Scott King goes to 1077 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 2: show he has no real knowledge about her besides being 1078 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 2: someone's wife, instead of acknowledging her as an activist in 1079 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:45,919 Speaker 2: her own right, one of her children had to check 1080 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 2: him on that. I think he may have mentioned her 1081 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 2: again in his interview to make light of his tape 1082 00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:54,080 Speaker 2: conversation that went viral, and that just makes it even worse. 1083 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 2: I don't think his career is over, but I think 1084 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,000 Speaker 2: it will never be on the same trajectory it was 1085 00:57:58,040 --> 00:58:01,240 Speaker 2: before it all came back came out. Yeah, because that 1086 00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 2: was the poll. Well, Jonathan Major's work again was the Poe. 1087 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 2: But let me check the comments on YouTube. We got one. 1088 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 2: Lakita says, I think we're missing the fact that he 1089 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:14,439 Speaker 2: doesn't have a Karreta fetish. This Nay Sayer just thinks 1090 00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 2: MLK clearly thinks he's MLK. Clearly love Craft Country infiltrated 1091 00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,280 Speaker 2: his mind, and he really think he died for the cause. 1092 00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he like yeah. I think, honestly, if I'm 1093 00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 2: being serious for a second, I really think he sees 1094 00:58:32,800 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 2: Karretta as a woman who was with a great man 1095 00:58:38,360 --> 00:58:40,400 Speaker 2: and put up with everything that came with being a 1096 00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 2: great man, and that is what made her a great woman, right, 1097 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,920 Speaker 2: because that's the way he's been. He's used it in 1098 00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 2: the context that it's come up a couple times and 1099 00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:53,840 Speaker 2: he can go back and try to clean it up. 1100 00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 2: But I don't. I think he spocused. That was his truth. 1101 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:02,200 Speaker 2: And he said Michelle Obama to so like not. You know, 1102 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,160 Speaker 2: I think it says more about how he views himself 1103 00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 2: as baraqu or MLK. And I'm not trying to be 1104 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 2: pejorative here, but you're just an actor. You're just an actor. 1105 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 2: You're not the president. You're not the activist that got 1106 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:24,200 Speaker 2: killed at like thirty some years old for being one 1107 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 2: of the greatest men this country ever produced. You're not 1108 00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 2: putting it on the line like that. You're not in 1109 00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 2: the streets, you're not voicing our causes. You're just doing 1110 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:37,160 Speaker 2: acting work, which is fine. No one was expecting more 1111 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 2: from you, So elevating yourself to you're doing this for 1112 00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 2: your people and shit just feels weird to me already. 1113 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,400 Speaker 2: Maybe if he had a mass, like a long career 1114 00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:51,880 Speaker 2: or something, but I don't even think Denzel Washington would 1115 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 2: say some shit like that. Yeah, so I just don't. Yeah, 1116 00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:58,439 Speaker 2: I think he has an overinflated sense of ego from 1117 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 2: what I'm gathering. Yeah, the poll, will he work again, 1118 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:05,040 Speaker 2: He'll be just fine? Eight eight percent think he'll be 1119 01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:07,760 Speaker 2: just fine, nine percent think his career is over, and 1120 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:13,120 Speaker 2: two percent think his career will be even bigger, which 1121 01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:17,800 Speaker 2: is that's wild. I don't know about that. He coming 1122 01:00:17,840 --> 01:00:20,040 Speaker 2: all the way back. Eighty one percent think he'll be 1123 01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:22,919 Speaker 2: just fine. On Spotify, seventeen percent think his career is over. 1124 01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:27,240 Speaker 2: One percent thing he'll be even bigger. I don't know, 1125 01:00:27,840 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 2: if I'm being real, I don't know. I feel like 1126 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:35,080 Speaker 2: he'll mostly be fine. I definitely think his trajectory is 1127 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:37,880 Speaker 2: going to decrease. But part of the reason I think 1128 01:00:37,880 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 2: his trajectory is going to decrease is because of how 1129 01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 2: he's playing this. He seems very much like gods, it's 1130 01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:47,439 Speaker 2: no big deal, put me back in movies and bro, 1131 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:49,520 Speaker 2: you haven't even been sentenced yet. 1132 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:51,040 Speaker 1: Yes, that's not how that works. 1133 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,640 Speaker 2: And I think that. I think that interview was a 1134 01:00:54,680 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 2: bad look for a lot of people that even if 1135 01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 2: they kind of had your back, they saw that. I 1136 01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 2: saw people that have his back even showing that interview, 1137 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:06,920 Speaker 2: laughing at some of it, you know, picking on his fashions, 1138 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:10,479 Speaker 2: and a lot of memes about making you know good 1139 01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 2: being there, like girl, you okay, blink twice, you know 1140 01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:17,520 Speaker 2: you need some help, like yeah, Like this is not 1141 01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:20,680 Speaker 2: gonna be a quick thing for you. And I think 1142 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:23,120 Speaker 2: it's the kind of thing where you probably have to 1143 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:27,919 Speaker 2: go away quietly, continue to work and build yourself back 1144 01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:31,480 Speaker 2: up to a certain extent if it's possible. But I 1145 01:01:31,480 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 2: think he may even be hurting his chances at that. 1146 01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:36,720 Speaker 2: You know, Nate Parker is working again. He just is 1147 01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:40,959 Speaker 2: never gonna He was on a trajectory to catapult into 1148 01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:45,200 Speaker 2: leading man status, right, and I think he'll never have 1149 01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:49,400 Speaker 2: that now. Because it was sexual assault, and then the 1150 01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 2: way he kind of tried to explain it, it just 1151 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:57,480 Speaker 2: it just it never really, it never really measured up 1152 01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,000 Speaker 2: to what people wanted to hear. And I'm not saying 1153 01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 2: saying that there's any way he was gonna I don't 1154 01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:05,320 Speaker 2: even know the right way to play that. It's just 1155 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:08,480 Speaker 2: it came up. It was something that did happen, and 1156 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,280 Speaker 2: you can either say I had nothing to do with 1157 01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 2: it, it was all fake, or you gotta say I did it. 1158 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 2: I'm responsible and I hope people can forgive me. But yeah, 1159 01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:21,080 Speaker 2: it's just kind of playing middle of the road of like, 1160 01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,240 Speaker 2: I'm very sensitive to this da da da dah, and 1161 01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 2: you know, I respect women and I would never do that. 1162 01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 2: But also this bitchline or whatever it was, it's just 1163 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:34,080 Speaker 2: it wasn't gonna work. So anyway, Q and A was 1164 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:38,640 Speaker 2: shout out to all the civil rights bas Curly Nigga says, Yeah, 1165 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:40,720 Speaker 2: I thought Nate Park was gonna be okay career wise. 1166 01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:44,160 Speaker 2: That doesn't appear to be the case. Yeah. People always 1167 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:46,919 Speaker 2: say that, but do y'all go look up his im dB. 1168 01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:47,720 Speaker 2: He's worth it. 1169 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:50,040 Speaker 1: They don't. It's just the fact that he's not in 1170 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:52,360 Speaker 1: shit that they're looking or watching, and he's not like 1171 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:54,640 Speaker 1: being pushed out like in the public guy like I 1172 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,120 Speaker 1: used to. So people just assume that you're doing nothing, 1173 01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:57,960 Speaker 1: and that's not always so. 1174 01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, like he Birth of the Nation was twenty sixteen, 1175 01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:07,160 Speaker 2: and he's done well. No, hold on, I'm wrong. I'm wrong. 1176 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:13,520 Speaker 2: He's done American Skin twenty nineteen and I know I 1177 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 2: can which is a short twenty twenty. So no, I'm wrong. 1178 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:18,760 Speaker 2: He hasn't been working. Yeah, maybe he won't be okay. 1179 01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:20,920 Speaker 2: I don't think he was as big as job the 1180 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,680 Speaker 2: Majors was, but yeah maybe all right, Shit fuck that, 1181 01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:28,040 Speaker 2: Nachelle says. Years ago, Robin Thiedy did a hilarious sketch 1182 01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:30,800 Speaker 2: called Real Housewives of Civil Rights Movement, and this interview 1183 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:32,440 Speaker 2: reminded me of it. I think it's on YouTube. 1184 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:33,400 Speaker 1: Hilarious. 1185 01:03:33,560 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I to be wells James Clay says, more like 1186 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 2: I'd to be fine, if you know what I'm saying. 1187 01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:43,920 Speaker 2: Come on, guess who says? Why does he keep bringing 1188 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:46,800 Speaker 2: Corretta Scott King up. I'm baffled by his obsession with Corretta. 1189 01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 2: Sounds like he wants a woman to be his mother 1190 01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:53,080 Speaker 2: instead of his partner Malik coach. Malik says, damn that 1191 01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 2: beat for the banner section was bumping in the truck. Hey, 1192 01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:58,320 Speaker 2: we got some bangers over here.

Addy Bowler says, Terrence Howard still works. 1195 01:04:05,440 --> 01:04:08,080 Speaker 2: I think he'll work again. Give it time. Yeh See, 1196 01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 2: that's the thing too. People point to Nate Parker, which 1197 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,640 Speaker 2: I said is a pretty extreme case. But we have 1198 01:04:13,720 --> 01:04:17,840 Speaker 2: a ton of people that have sexual assault allegations, credible 1199 01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:22,600 Speaker 2: assault allegations, credible me two stories that are working and 1200 01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 2: everyone ignores them. Anthony Anderson has all kinds like he's working. 1201 01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 2: He's working and no one gives a fuck. Like Kobe, 1202 01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:37,720 Speaker 2: like he died and we cried for him, like we 1203 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,880 Speaker 2: like motherfucker's cherry pick. Just the ones that they go 1204 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:46,520 Speaker 2: see what happened is so and so. But we have 1205 01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 2: a lot of ones where it's like we don't say 1206 01:04:48,400 --> 01:04:50,680 Speaker 2: what happened to him because nothing happened. They's still around. 1207 01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:53,440 Speaker 2: I don't know if he'll Jonathan Majors will be one 1208 01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:55,600 Speaker 2: of them or not, but I just know it happens, 1209 01:04:55,640 --> 01:05:00,240 Speaker 2: and it's not exclusively a white thing. Rogers said, you 1210 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 2: can't turn her Nancy Reagan into a Coretta King.

Yeah, it's a niche, it's a 1233 01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:14,440 Speaker 2: niche market. I don't know very niche. I didn't know 1234 01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:16,760 Speaker 2: if anybody was gonna really appreciate that. But I'm glad 1235 01:06:16,800 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 2: you did it, brother, I'm glad you did We found 1236 01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 2: we found a fan that was like, okay, off the dome. 1237 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:29,440 Speaker 1: Uh Black Liberation baddie, somebody saying, yeah, we love. 1238 01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,640 Speaker 2: Them over here. Okay, I'm listen. I'm still a dude. 1239 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,840 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the last episode of the week, 1240 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:43,560 Speaker 2: twenty eight thirty seven. Not really big on fatherhood, Appia says, 1241 01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:45,800 Speaker 2: we don't have garbage disposals here in Germany. I've never 1242 01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 2: seen one in the kitchen here. Ever. Wonder why that 1243 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:51,080 Speaker 2: is verbal abuse. I doubt that it really goes up, 1244 01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 2: or if the scientists in the past didn't even ask 1245 01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 2: about it in the past, like they didn't even care 1246 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 2: about it. I don't yell at my kids regularly, but 1247 01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,960 Speaker 2: it happened a few times, not often. I always apologize. 1248 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 2: I think it's important to talk about it, but it's 1249 01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:05,720 Speaker 2: hard to be perfect at it. Old garbage disposals are 1250 01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:08,600 Speaker 2: banned in Europe. I just found out. They say they 1251 01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 2: see them as a danger for the pipes in the environment. 1252 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:13,360 Speaker 2: We do compost in a bind and use a compost 1253 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:16,920 Speaker 2: for garden plants to separate the trash like good Germans deal. Well, 1254 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,760 Speaker 2: we love to see it. Shoe Booty says, I saw 1255 01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:22,680 Speaker 2: some video yesterday saying you shouldn't pour pasta water down 1256 01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:27,320 Speaker 2: your drain for the same reason starts build up. Respectfully. No, 1257 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 2: I won't be doing that. What else am I supposed 1258 01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 2: to do with my pasta water? Dig a hole out 1259 01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:35,560 Speaker 2: back and put it give it back to the earth, right, 1260 01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:38,840 Speaker 2: It don't make sense. The video suggested giving it to 1261 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:41,880 Speaker 2: your house plants and your or your garden. And there's 1262 01:07:41,920 --> 01:07:44,760 Speaker 2: no way I'm gonna have my plants in my house 1263 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:47,680 Speaker 2: thinking like old spaghetti or attracting critters outside with my 1264 01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:52,320 Speaker 2: pasta and rich tulips. Wan Ganghi says the dump I 1265 01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:55,200 Speaker 2: dumped my weird, non toxic organic waste liquors on my 1266 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 2: neighbor's tree that is growing through my fence. That's smart. Finally, 1267 01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:02,520 Speaker 2: we all have neighbors that right. Ginagate says, Listen y'all 1268 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:05,440 Speaker 2: talk about verbal abuse. I'm not surprised it's trending upwards. 1269 01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 2: A lot of parents are well aware that it's not 1270 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:09,440 Speaker 2: okay to hit our children, and there are lots of 1271 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,960 Speaker 2: societal repercussions for doing so, but yelling and screaming seems 1272 01:08:13,000 --> 01:08:15,160 Speaker 2: to be still on v that's what pairs do. Table 1273 01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 2: For many parents, it's sort of like a well, at 1274 01:08:17,400 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 2: least don't hit them kind of mentality, which is dangerous 1275 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:23,240 Speaker 2: but definitely out there. I can also see it as 1276 01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 2: a rebellion against gentle parenting trend, which I've heard people 1277 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:29,559 Speaker 2: say means you are abdicating responsibility. I don't agree. I 1278 01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:31,960 Speaker 2: can see lots of parents not even understanding that yelling 1279 01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:34,720 Speaker 2: can even be abusive, hearing that it can be so 1280 01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:39,400 Speaker 2: damaging with surprising though it makes sense trying. Can't try 1281 01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:42,600 Speaker 2: to teach my kid about controlling big feelings when I don't, right, 1282 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,160 Speaker 2: Thanks for bringing it to my attention, No problem, and 1283 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:49,519 Speaker 2: I'm glad you found it. You know informational I did too. 1284 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:50,880 Speaker 2: I did not know that. 1285 01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 1: Shit, right, And it is something where it's so common 1286 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:58,120 Speaker 1: that people don't really even think about it, and they 1287 01:08:58,120 --> 01:09:02,280 Speaker 1: don't comprehend how Oh, it affects. 1288 01:09:03,320 --> 01:09:03,679 Speaker 2: People. 1289 01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:06,679 Speaker 1: You know, people know what affects people, but people really 1290 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:09,760 Speaker 1: don't think people know it affects people. But when it 1291 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 1: comes to children, because I can't speak for your the 1292 01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:15,320 Speaker 1: West behind American children, I look considered property like that's 1293 01:09:15,360 --> 01:09:17,240 Speaker 1: your property, you own it, like you want a chair. 1294 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:22,760 Speaker 1: So because of that, the way people are process it 1295 01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:25,280 Speaker 1: is a little different. People go, well, you know, if 1296 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:29,439 Speaker 1: I'm gonna treat this child like it's a chair, quote unquote, 1297 01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:32,280 Speaker 1: so what I do to it? No, I'm not kicking it, 1298 01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:34,160 Speaker 1: I'm not beating it up, but you know I am 1299 01:09:34,240 --> 01:09:37,320 Speaker 1: quote unquote might be abusing it. But that's okay because 1300 01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 1: it's mine. And I think sometimes that's very hard for 1301 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:43,880 Speaker 1: people to understand. And people have normalized yelling. People go, well, 1302 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:46,000 Speaker 1: I'd rather you yell at me than beat me. Well, 1303 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:51,080 Speaker 1: it could still affect people and things and stuff just 1304 01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:55,160 Speaker 1: as much and sometimes even worse sometimes because those are 1305 01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:57,560 Speaker 1: things and it wasn't until I became an adult, But 1306 01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:58,880 Speaker 1: there were things that was said to me as a 1307 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:01,280 Speaker 1: child that I literally held until I was an adult 1308 01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:05,000 Speaker 1: and let it go. So those words actually do mean things. 1309 01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And I think I have to disagree with APIA. 1310 01:10:10,360 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 2: I trust the scientists here and I think that if 1311 01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,320 Speaker 2: they say it's trending up words, I believe them. You know, 1312 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:20,719 Speaker 2: even he says at least NBA Young Boy is honest. 1313 01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:22,920 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone who has several children with a 1314 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:26,600 Speaker 2: bunch of different baby mamas is really interested in fatherhood, 1315 01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:29,040 Speaker 2: and that includes Nick Cannon, because how can you effectively 1316 01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,960 Speaker 2: parent several children in different households. Someone is bound to 1317 01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:34,439 Speaker 2: be neglected. It's all about ego with these types of men. 1318 01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:36,680 Speaker 2: As I always say, the kids will be telling the 1319 01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:39,080 Speaker 2: real story. Yeah, And if the kids are gonna be 1320 01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 2: adults one day, yeah. And if you were there, they 1321 01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:43,200 Speaker 2: gonna say it. And if you wouldn't, they gonna say 1322 01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 2: it too. Yeah. The kids will get to tell their side. 1323 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:47,679 Speaker 2: People have been coming from Vivic a Fox all week 1324 01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:49,840 Speaker 2: because of what she allegedly said. People were coming for 1325 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:52,400 Speaker 2: her career as if she wasn't an Independence day for 1326 01:10:52,520 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 2: kill Bill and Soulfud. She has iconic ross. People who 1327 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:58,280 Speaker 2: are perpetually online just be making shit up right, and 1328 01:10:58,400 --> 01:11:02,439 Speaker 2: could have read the article. It's in the article, she 1329 01:11:02,560 --> 01:11:04,040 Speaker 2: supports to Raggie. 1330 01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:05,000 Speaker 1: They're gonna read. 1331 01:11:05,280 --> 01:11:07,559 Speaker 2: She has had a different experience, but she's glad to 1332 01:11:07,640 --> 01:11:10,640 Speaker 2: Rajji and other black actress are speaking up about theirs. 1333 01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 2: What the fuck? Why do we have to hate so much? 1334 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:15,800 Speaker 1: Ugh? 1335 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:18,519 Speaker 2: Don Lemon is coming out with a show on Twitter. 1336 01:11:18,760 --> 01:11:21,160 Speaker 2: We will never hear from him again. Does it take 1337 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:22,840 Speaker 2: a cost o have a show on Twitter? Yep? And 1338 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:25,559 Speaker 2: I've never seen it or heard anybody talk about it. 1339 01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,120 Speaker 2: Remember when he used to go viral every week because 1340 01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,120 Speaker 2: of dumb as shit? You say anyone heard from him lately? 1341 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:35,879 Speaker 2: I haven't exactly. For whatever people want to say, legacy 1342 01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:38,840 Speaker 2: media television still has. It's still the big joker, it's 1343 01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 2: still the big dog, and it's the reason that Bill 1344 01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:44,960 Speaker 2: Maher when he's doing the season, goes viral every Saturday 1345 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:48,559 Speaker 2: morning with just a very archaic old man take. But 1346 01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:52,360 Speaker 2: it works. We're talking about it on social media because 1347 01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:55,839 Speaker 2: it was on TV. If it would have just happened 1348 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:58,760 Speaker 2: on social media, if Bill Maher had a show on X, 1349 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,200 Speaker 2: no one would give a fuck up. You know who's 1350 01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:07,000 Speaker 2: trolling on X. Everybody's trolling on X. So if Don 1351 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:09,360 Speaker 2: Lemon wants to put this show on X or whatever, 1352 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 2: And I'm only saying X because I feel like Don 1353 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:14,960 Speaker 2: Lemon signed up for X he did, he didn't sign 1354 01:12:15,080 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 2: up for Twitter. You got in late my man, Okay anyway, 1355 01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:25,559 Speaker 2: and I and also like I saw like his because 1356 01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:27,280 Speaker 2: they all have to make the same statement when they 1357 01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:29,439 Speaker 2: sign these things to be like press release and it's 1358 01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:32,840 Speaker 2: already that I can finally have freedom of speech.

Because motherfuckers seem to hate people that do 1400 01:14:56,360 --> 01:15:00,160 Speaker 2: fuck shit now and if they don't hate them, then 1401 01:15:00,160 --> 01:15:02,599 Speaker 2: they have to do this weird stand thing where they 1402 01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:07,040 Speaker 2: defend the like, oh she married a rapist, yay, like 1403 01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:10,679 Speaker 2: there's no end between. I think at that time, because 1404 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:13,519 Speaker 2: one these people didn't have social media, a lot of 1405 01:15:13,520 --> 01:15:16,880 Speaker 2: this stuff was whisper campaigns and rumors and somebody some 1406 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:20,200 Speaker 2: other celebrity telling you a story about them or they 1407 01:15:20,280 --> 01:15:23,080 Speaker 2: do an interview, and they have a lot of personality. 1408 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:25,799 Speaker 2: I think now they're going directly to us through Instagram 1409 01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:28,000 Speaker 2: and stuff. So I think these divas do exist. But 1410 01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:31,880 Speaker 2: what what's changed is the mystique around them. There's no 1411 01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:37,680 Speaker 2: more mistique. The ones that I considered divas now are 1412 01:15:37,720 --> 01:15:40,200 Speaker 2: the ones that still treat us like it's nineteen seventy 1413 01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:42,120 Speaker 2: five and don't tell ushit unless it's trying to sell 1414 01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 2: something Rihanna, Right, So they still exist, but there was 1415 01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:52,000 Speaker 2: never like it wasn't like there was always fifty divas 1416 01:15:52,000 --> 01:15:55,439 Speaker 2: like it's always gonna be a few.

It was like my very first 1447 01:17:59,240 --> 01:18:03,400 Speaker 3: police job, and we had a chief of police who was, honestly, 1448 01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:05,599 Speaker 3: he never should have had his job. He was very, 1449 01:18:05,680 --> 01:18:07,960 Speaker 3: very underqualified. But the mari at the time like until 1450 01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:10,760 Speaker 3: you got the job. We got a new mayor, she 1451 01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 3: wasn't go off of his ship, and so he got fired. 1452 01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:17,400 Speaker 3: Once he got fired, all of his stuff got turned 1453 01:18:17,400 --> 01:18:20,479 Speaker 3: into me because I kept inventory of all the equipment 1454 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:25,000 Speaker 3: that was issued, and I got his work toughtbook, which 1455 01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:27,560 Speaker 3: is the laptop that they used.

But that's 1544 01:22:57,960 --> 01:23:00,000 Speaker 2: a man who was so far ahead of his time 1545 01:23:00,080 --> 01:23:04,840 Speaker 2: when it came to respecting what his wife did, understanding 1546 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:06,920 Speaker 2: it was a mission for her, it was a goal 1547 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:10,160 Speaker 2: for her. And even back during that time of the 1548 01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:14,400 Speaker 2: turn of the century, it was not a okay so 1549 01:23:14,439 --> 01:23:16,639 Speaker 2: it's time for you to have these babies and fucking 1550 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:19,200 Speaker 2: be a wife and do all this shit like she 1551 01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:23,519 Speaker 2: like he was like, no, I understand, and we're equals 1552 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:25,479 Speaker 2: in this. And it doesn't mean they didn't have any 1553 01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 2: disagreements or or what. They eventually did have kids and stuff, 1554 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:33,679 Speaker 2: but it wasn't like, that's your goal is to stay 1555 01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:36,760 Speaker 2: home and take pictures and make people think I'm a 1556 01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:39,000 Speaker 2: great guy. And I think that's what Jonathan Major just 1557 01:23:39,040 --> 01:23:41,800 Speaker 2: keeps hitting that, and honestly, dog, I feel that way 1558 01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:44,719 Speaker 2: about a lot of niggas that talk that like king 1559 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:48,160 Speaker 2: and queen shit. They they only use the term queen 1560 01:23:48,200 --> 01:23:50,960 Speaker 2: because they feel like the queen is subservient to the king. 1561 01:23:51,080 --> 01:23:55,719 Speaker 2: It's not a matriarchal queen. It's not a queen because 1562 01:23:55,720 --> 01:23:59,120 Speaker 2: we're equals. It's I rule and you submit. All them 1563 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:03,400 Speaker 2: niggas say stuff like submit and that kind of support. 1564 01:24:04,120 --> 01:24:07,599 Speaker 2: It's weird, and a lot of them have hyper They 1565 01:24:07,600 --> 01:24:13,960 Speaker 2: have fictionalized who they are. In the state of America 1566 01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 2: and in the state of Black life, we of all 1567 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:24,120 Speaker 2: races cannot truly afford patriarchy. It is hazarded to us. 1568 01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:28,000 Speaker 2: We should reframe the way we teach our children, in 1569 01:24:28,040 --> 01:24:31,559 Speaker 2: my opinion, the way we teach our boys and be 1570 01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:35,360 Speaker 2: more about partnership and equal support, because that is the 1571 01:24:35,479 --> 01:24:40,400 Speaker 2: real reality of America. And I understand that assuaging and 1572 01:24:40,439 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 2: capitulating to a man's ego is part of the patriarchal 1573 01:24:46,280 --> 01:24:49,599 Speaker 2: design of this country and men's feelings and emotions. They 1574 01:24:49,640 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 2: have to feel like a man, no matter how the 1575 01:24:52,040 --> 01:24:54,439 Speaker 2: fuck life is treating them. They need to come home. 1576 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:56,599 Speaker 2: And you, as a woman, need to make them feel 1577 01:24:56,640 --> 01:25:00,880 Speaker 2: like a man, which means shrinking yourself or their ego. 1578 01:25:01,520 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 2: So it doesn't matter what they do for a living, 1579 01:25:04,360 --> 01:25:07,720 Speaker 2: who's making the most money, you had to somehow make 1580 01:25:07,800 --> 01:25:12,639 Speaker 2: them feel like they're essentially like these old school leave 1581 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,120 Speaker 2: it to beaver ass white men, and I just think 1582 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:19,240 Speaker 2: we should erase that entire paradigm. We've never had it 1583 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:23,120 Speaker 2: in America. Black people have never been afforded that. In 1584 01:25:23,320 --> 01:25:30,040 Speaker 2: mass they have made sure the men stayed underpaid, underemployed, 1585 01:25:30,880 --> 01:25:35,920 Speaker 2: and overincarcerated, and they made sure that the women always 1586 01:25:35,960 --> 01:25:40,960 Speaker 2: stayed overworked. Our black women have always had to either 1587 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,160 Speaker 2: work for themselves out in the fields. When they did 1588 01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:47,760 Speaker 2: have marriages and they did have families, they still were 1589 01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:50,960 Speaker 2: doing labor in their family. When they weren't doing that, 1590 01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:53,320 Speaker 2: they were doing labor for white people, because white people 1591 01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 2: were never really about doing their own work when black 1592 01:25:57,160 --> 01:25:59,800 Speaker 2: when they could afford or force black people to do 1593 01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:04,640 Speaker 2: the work for them. So we've never had that idealistic 1594 01:26:05,200 --> 01:26:08,800 Speaker 2: version of America where the father comes home, the wife 1595 01:26:08,840 --> 01:26:12,120 Speaker 2: has already made a drink for him, and she's uh, 1596 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:15,360 Speaker 2: and she's greasome at the at the door with his 1597 01:26:15,479 --> 01:26:18,200 Speaker 2: drink and takes his slippers off. We ain't have that. 1598 01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:22,519 Speaker 2: So if we would stop romanticizing that and motherfuckers that 1599 01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:25,760 Speaker 2: make like forty thousand dollars a year stop acting like 1600 01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:28,439 Speaker 2: data prize or whatever, I think we could get by 1601 01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 2: that past that. But yeah, I'm sure anecdotally and a 1602 01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:35,719 Speaker 2: micro level, dealing with that shit in the Dayton game 1603 01:26:36,200 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 2: has to be held of frustrating because a lot of 1604 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:40,040 Speaker 2: black men still buy into that shit. 1605 01:26:40,240 --> 01:26:42,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and a lot of that even for them, it 1606 01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:45,080 Speaker 1: was a goddamn illusion, like like we love people have 1607 01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:48,120 Speaker 1: to realize that whole the man works and comes home 1608 01:26:48,200 --> 01:26:50,559 Speaker 1: and and there's nothing wrong with it if you if 1609 01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 1: your household of structure like that. But that shit was 1610 01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:56,200 Speaker 1: an illusion because when they do that, they also don't 1611 01:26:56,240 --> 01:26:58,599 Speaker 1: talk about a lot of the abuse that may have happened, 1612 01:26:58,640 --> 01:27:01,479 Speaker 1: a lot of the Guess guess what that doing that 1613 01:27:01,479 --> 01:27:04,200 Speaker 1: period of time. Guess what women could have homes, mugg 1614 01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:08,720 Speaker 1: a bank account, drive boats, like talking about. 1615 01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:18,519 Speaker 2: Your own property. Yeah, I agree completely. Next word is mel. 1616 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:20,200 Speaker 4: Hi you too, It's alegra I am catching up on 1617 01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:24,920 Speaker 4: the shows and I just was listening to twenty eight 1618 01:27:25,120 --> 01:27:29,920 Speaker 4: thirty the Social Justice Death Penalty episode with jail on On. 1619 01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:32,759 Speaker 4: I love when he's on, by the way, it's always 1620 01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:37,320 Speaker 4: a good time. I love the political talk. But I 1621 01:27:37,360 --> 01:27:40,360 Speaker 4: just wanted to add like two cents onto your rant. 1622 01:27:41,120 --> 01:27:46,080 Speaker 4: You're justified rant, Rod, and that is we also live 1623 01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:52,000 Speaker 4: in a culture that doesn't doesn't promote change, nor does 1624 01:27:52,040 --> 01:27:56,639 Speaker 4: it promote being acknowledging when you're wrong. So if you see, 1625 01:27:57,160 --> 01:28:03,160 Speaker 4: if you have a visceral reaction to something and or 1626 01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:07,720 Speaker 4: an action or something that has happened, and then that 1627 01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:14,160 Speaker 4: thing has changed, meaning what you your example of you 1628 01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:19,720 Speaker 4: know Rice and his you know Penance and you know 1629 01:28:19,880 --> 01:28:26,240 Speaker 4: kind of becoming better and making himself better, and you 1630 01:28:26,280 --> 01:28:28,080 Speaker 4: know the things that he the steps he did to 1631 01:28:28,120 --> 01:28:34,280 Speaker 4: make change, then it goes against the idea of us 1632 01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:37,519 Speaker 4: being angry. It goes against us. You know, we want 1633 01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:40,720 Speaker 4: to stay angry as a society and we want to 1634 01:28:40,760 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 4: be justified in our anger, and we never want. 1635 01:28:43,720 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 6: To admit when we're wrong. 1636 01:28:45,760 --> 01:28:49,720 Speaker 4: It's the culture, it's the DNA of our society. We 1637 01:28:49,760 --> 01:28:54,439 Speaker 4: can't we still can't fucking fully admit slavery happened. So 1638 01:28:54,760 --> 01:28:59,120 Speaker 4: why would we then drill down to a micro example 1639 01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:04,439 Speaker 4: of you know, domestic abuse and the potential for change there. 1640 01:29:05,080 --> 01:29:07,479 Speaker 4: And it's funny because we're always talking about how we 1641 01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:12,519 Speaker 4: want masculinity to be reformed and how masculinity is being 1642 01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:17,720 Speaker 4: challenged and we want men. I mean, y'all know what 1643 01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:23,800 Speaker 4: it is. This is a leger again. Anyway, I'm just 1644 01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:29,840 Speaker 4: ranting about masculinity only because I think that the other thing, 1645 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:33,479 Speaker 4: the other side of it, is that like we're looking 1646 01:29:33,560 --> 01:29:39,800 Speaker 4: to have a new definition for masfemininity, masculinity, non binary, 1647 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:42,800 Speaker 4: all these things, but we don't want to accept the 1648 01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:45,479 Speaker 4: work that needs to be done to make that change happen. 1649 01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:52,000 Speaker 4: And that's very frustrating to me as a person who 1650 01:29:52,040 --> 01:29:54,960 Speaker 4: is going to school to become a therapist. It's very 1651 01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:58,960 Speaker 4: frustrating to me as a woman who is very into 1652 01:29:59,200 --> 01:30:08,600 Speaker 4: equality and wanting to help people be their true better selves. 1653 01:30:09,200 --> 01:30:12,719 Speaker 4: So it's very frustrating to look at some at how 1654 01:30:12,880 --> 01:30:16,759 Speaker 4: our society is raised for lack of a better. 1655 01:30:16,600 --> 01:30:17,640 Speaker 1: Term, and. 1656 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:23,080 Speaker 4: The hypocrisy, and listen, I am a hypocrite too. I 1657 01:30:23,120 --> 01:30:26,640 Speaker 4: am not better than anybody else. But it's interesting to 1658 01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:32,679 Speaker 4: see the hypocrisy and know that people are not willing 1659 01:30:32,760 --> 01:30:36,320 Speaker 4: to be self aware enough and to do the work 1660 01:30:36,479 --> 01:30:40,800 Speaker 4: enough and be honest enough to say that they're wrong. 1661 01:30:41,439 --> 01:30:45,080 Speaker 4: And what's so terrible about being wrong? I'm always fascinated 1662 01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:47,719 Speaker 4: with that too. What is so terrible about being wrong? 1663 01:30:48,280 --> 01:30:51,120 Speaker 4: I mean, yes, it's lovely to be right, but who 1664 01:30:51,160 --> 01:30:54,400 Speaker 4: the fuck cares if you're wrong? If you have been 1665 01:30:54,479 --> 01:31:00,200 Speaker 4: proven wrong about something that is as intense as the 1666 01:31:00,280 --> 01:31:04,000 Speaker 4: ability for a person to change from a bad person 1667 01:31:04,040 --> 01:31:06,479 Speaker 4: to a good person, wouldn't you want to be wrong 1668 01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:11,160 Speaker 4: about that? I don't know anyway, I appreciate your rant 1669 01:31:11,280 --> 01:31:12,920 Speaker 4: and I one hundred percent agree with it. 1670 01:31:13,880 --> 01:31:17,680 Speaker 2: Unlike the she got cut off again, she didn't call back, 1671 01:31:17,720 --> 01:31:21,280 Speaker 2: but we got you, says and thank you? Uh very yeah, 1672 01:31:21,360 --> 01:31:23,760 Speaker 2: various stude stuff. I grew with everything's at Oh yeah. 1673 01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:29,439 Speaker 1: And also I think for me as somebody in sniff 1674 01:31:29,479 --> 01:31:33,880 Speaker 1: of my childhood as somebody who over apologizes, you know, 1675 01:31:34,200 --> 01:31:38,639 Speaker 1: just part of my personality, as somebody who apologizes even 1676 01:31:38,760 --> 01:31:42,760 Speaker 1: when sometimes I don't feel like even I can feel 1677 01:31:42,800 --> 01:31:46,080 Speaker 1: like I'm right and still apologized just because I want 1678 01:31:46,120 --> 01:31:48,160 Speaker 1: to keep peace. Who gets the fuck about it? I 1679 01:31:48,160 --> 01:31:49,920 Speaker 1: want to keep like this is just me functioning. I 1680 01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:52,960 Speaker 1: want to keep peace, and the more people solution to 1681 01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:55,800 Speaker 1: be like, you know what, I'm sorry you interpreted it 1682 01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:59,040 Speaker 1: this way, even though those were not my intentions. Because 1683 01:31:59,040 --> 01:32:01,799 Speaker 1: when you say things, people have the right to perceive 1684 01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:08,080 Speaker 1: them and respond to them and make the situation there 1685 01:32:09,240 --> 01:32:12,040 Speaker 1: the reality. The reality for them might be them for 1686 01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:16,320 Speaker 1: the reality for you, even though you're justified. So I 1687 01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:18,720 Speaker 1: am like, I'm my bad, I apologize and move on. 1688 01:32:19,120 --> 01:32:22,200 Speaker 1: And the thing is uh. And like I say, as 1689 01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:24,719 Speaker 1: somebody who has dealt with a lot of different things 1690 01:32:24,760 --> 01:32:28,280 Speaker 1: and fault forgiveness and unforgiveness and all this stuff through 1691 01:32:28,400 --> 01:32:34,960 Speaker 1: through my life, it's funny how everybody acts like forgiveness 1692 01:32:35,280 --> 01:32:39,360 Speaker 1: is a weakness. But if forgiveness was a weakness, everybody 1693 01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:42,800 Speaker 1: will you know, if everybody asks like forgiveness is a weakness, 1694 01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:46,879 Speaker 1: but everybody's not doing it. So forgiveness is actually your strength, 1695 01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:49,639 Speaker 1: but people don't look at it there as a strength 1696 01:32:50,040 --> 01:32:52,200 Speaker 1: because they feel like, if I do. 1697 01:32:52,080 --> 01:32:57,360 Speaker 2: This, I am allowing me me myself. 1698 01:32:58,080 --> 01:33:01,000 Speaker 1: If I do this, what am I gonna do with 1699 01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:03,880 Speaker 1: these feelings and these emotions that I have? And they 1700 01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:05,600 Speaker 1: don't know where to direct them, and they don't know 1701 01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:09,160 Speaker 1: what to do with them, And so they find this 1702 01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:11,800 Speaker 1: thing and that's where all their anger and sadness and 1703 01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:14,840 Speaker 1: pain and all this stuff is wrapped up into their unforgiveness. 1704 01:33:14,960 --> 01:33:17,600 Speaker 1: Vers it's actually boring down to the root cause of 1705 01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:20,320 Speaker 1: the problem and why you feel this way. And the 1706 01:33:20,400 --> 01:33:23,240 Speaker 1: thing is a lot of times people think forgiveness is forgetting, 1707 01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:26,840 Speaker 1: and those things are not true. I can forgive you 1708 01:33:26,960 --> 01:33:29,960 Speaker 1: about something and not forget about that thing and still 1709 01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:32,639 Speaker 1: hold you accountable for those things and still not fuck 1710 01:33:32,680 --> 01:33:35,080 Speaker 1: with you at the same time, Like all these things 1711 01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:39,000 Speaker 1: can be true. But a lot of people think forgiveness 1712 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:41,759 Speaker 1: is we just wash the ball, wash the slake, everything's 1713 01:33:41,840 --> 01:33:45,720 Speaker 1: clean clear. No, it's not true. It's a process. And 1714 01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:47,960 Speaker 1: the thing is, no, most people don't want to go 1715 01:33:47,960 --> 01:33:50,439 Speaker 1: through that process because it will require them digging within 1716 01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:53,439 Speaker 1: themselves finding out what caused this some of this shit 1717 01:33:53,560 --> 01:33:55,920 Speaker 1: might be caused, Like you read the articles about the yelling. 1718 01:33:56,600 --> 01:33:58,760 Speaker 1: Some of this might be caused from somebody yelling at you. 1719 01:33:58,840 --> 01:34:00,880 Speaker 1: Somebody might be cause from you and your feelings hurt 1720 01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:03,840 Speaker 1: from a parent or a significant other. And like I say, 1721 01:34:03,960 --> 01:34:05,439 Speaker 1: that's the work, and those are the things that the 1722 01:34:05,520 --> 01:34:08,000 Speaker 1: leceral's talking about that nobody really wants to do. So 1723 01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:12,160 Speaker 1: instead of you know, admitting that if you want to forgive, 1724 01:34:12,400 --> 01:34:15,600 Speaker 1: that's okay. I'm not forgiving and that's my choice, they'll go, no, 1725 01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:19,040 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna forgive, so you shouldn't forgive either, And 1726 01:34:19,040 --> 01:34:21,280 Speaker 1: it was like, hey, doll, everybody don't want to sit 1727 01:34:21,320 --> 01:34:24,000 Speaker 1: in un forgiveness and there's nothing wrong with that. Some 1728 01:34:24,040 --> 01:34:26,840 Speaker 1: people want to forgive for their own personal things so 1729 01:34:26,880 --> 01:34:28,720 Speaker 1: they can fucking move on with their life and not 1730 01:34:28,760 --> 01:34:29,360 Speaker 1: be stuck. 1731 01:34:30,680 --> 01:34:39,080 Speaker 7: All right, last versemail, Yes, Rod, Karen Justin.
