I was just on in Sandy Check 220 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 2: for movie trailer reviews. Last week we were on Black 221 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 2: Astronauts by the way Thursday night, so that shows out. 222 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 2: I was just on What's the Tea? So that'll be 223 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: coming out soon Tuesday, I believe that. And man, we 224 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 2: had a fun time on there that was so good. 225 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: You guys are gonna y'all. It went off the rails 226 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 2: in a good way. So anyway, it's called a thousand 227 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 2: truth fans is this one is called Carlton Matthews dot 228 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 2: com and he wrote about he was listening to the 229 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 2: Sanity Check podcasts in the MTR network. 230 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: Of the episode, the host Chris was joined by Roder 231 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 1: and his Prime and of. 232 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 2: The Black Eyed Tips. They were discussing their time podcasting. 233 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 2: Both these guys started in podcasting back in the dark ages. 234 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 2: They had to learn on the fly, and I've grown 235 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 2: with their platforms over time. 236 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: Will make me feel old, don't you. 237 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 2: One of the reasons that I consider getting into podcast 238 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 2: is because a rider his wife say that again, you're 239 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 2: he added your Twitter handle. Outside of being consistent and 240 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 2: finding your voice, my takeaway from their discussion was finding 241 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 2: your fan base. There's a notion that you can have 242 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 2: a mass, that you have to have a massive following 243 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: to be quote unquote successful in podcasting. I don't think 244 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 2: that Chris and Rodd agreed with this assessment. They said 245 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 2: it was more important to have true fans. A true 246 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 2: fan is someone who has sold out on your content. 247 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 2: You do not need tons of these fans. In this 248 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 2: article A Thousand True Fans that he links to, Kevin 249 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 2: Kelly goes in depth and why you need to focus 250 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 2: on building a true fan base. The below quote is 251 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 2: a conclusion from the article. You need to go read 252 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 2: this if you are looking to grow your artists. As 253 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 2: a creator, a thousand true fans is an alternative approach 254 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 2: to success other than stardom. Instead of trying to reach 255 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: the narrow, unlikely peaks of platinum, bestseller heads, blockbusters, and 256 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 2: celebrity status, you can aim for direct connection with a 257 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 2: thousand true fans on your way, no matter how many 258 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 2: fans you actually succeed in gaining you'll be surrounded by 259 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 2: the fatish infatuation, but not by fatish infatuation, but by 260 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 2: genuine and true appreciation. 261 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 1: It's a much. 262 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: Saner destiny to hope for and you are much more 263 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 2: likely to actually arrive there. Just some thoughts for your morning. 264 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 2: Get out there and do something amazing. Thanks man, thank you, and. 265 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 3: I one hundred percent agree that is more achievable than 266 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 3: trying to do some of the other things. Like there's 267 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 3: some people who build their platform and they have got 268 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 3: to those higher status, which is fine, but to be told, 269 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 3: the average person will never get there. But success is 270 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 3: defined in various different ways, and some people don't define 271 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 3: stardom and being famous at success. 272 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:14,319 Speaker 1: They describe success. 273 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 3: Ay, I can do what I enjoy and what I 274 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 3: love for a living because I have people around me 275 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 3: that actually enjoy my content and will actually donate, and 276 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 3: we can do great things. 277 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 1: And it's almost like a family like together type of thing. 278 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 3: Because the thing is, once you get to a certain 279 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 3: not on what the magic number is, that is a plateau, 280 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 3: whatever it is because of how people view you and 281 00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 3: people who have a tendency to strip you of your humanity, 282 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 3: you lose some of the connection with your fan base 283 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 3: because you almost have to, And which is I understand 284 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 3: that purpose, but I hope that's something that we never 285 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 3: have to do. But I know that what we do 286 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 3: is more reasonable for the average person. 287 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think. Also it's an interesting point because. 288 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: A lot of people see success and assume that all 289 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 2: of the trappings quote unquote or all the things that 290 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 2: come along with it are what you cover it. I 291 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 2: soon to know you, right. But I don't like being 292 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 2: all of in the videos. I don't like being out everywhere. 293 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 2: I don't like a whole lot of people around me. 294 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 2: I don't like the idea of taking pictures with people. 295 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 1: And all this shit is not necessarily something I would 296 00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: cove it. 297 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 2: Not saying that I'm anti that, but just like the 298 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 2: general idea of I see you and I go, oh, 299 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 2: there's a famous person. I don't like that in posting 300 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 2: people at all. I like to know that people around 301 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 2: me are genuine.

And 304 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 2: I think it gets blurred, and I think that's one 305 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 2: of the reason famous people really go crazy is cause 306 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: it's like, Okay, who are supposed to. 307 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: Be my friends?

I was not prepared. 373 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 3: I wasn't ready either, day to give you a manual. 374 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 3: So I am glad I'm not the owner one going 375 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 3: what the fuck is this? 376 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 2: My life has been alive, right. Joe says that Sterla K. 377 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 2: Brown is a really good is really a solid guy. 378 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 2: Maybe it's the acting skill, but he took that beat 379 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 2: before answering the reporter's question, but never seemed anoid or 380 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 2: even confused as to why one would ask. Then he 381 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 2: gave a solid answer considering that is not anything over 382 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 2: which he has any control of jurisdiction. I'm betting Matt 383 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,400 Speaker 2: Damon wouldn't know how to answer that question. Ye had 384 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 2: a bar is super low, but yes, case you forgot. 385 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 1: Sterla K. 386 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 2: Brown got asked about, uh, the lack of black coverage 387 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 2: for the award show he was at and the fact 388 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 2: that the black press is relegated to like a small 389 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,640 Speaker 2: corner and shit, and he gave a pretty solid answer. 390 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: I just liked that he didn't get defensive. But that's 391 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 2: also a very low bar, you know. And no, he 392 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 2: really can't do anything. I guess he could boycott or 393 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 2: some shit, but not every I think that's kind of 394 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 2: the go to like suggesting for people. But I think 395 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: people really need to understand just suggesting boycott doesn't mean 396 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 2: shit without an ask, And most people don't even they're 397 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 2: just like upset. So they want to push that power somewhere, 398 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 2: that rage somewhere, but they haven't fully. 399 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 1: Thought it through. But no, no, there's a good answer 400 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: and to shine a light on something. But correct. 401 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 3: And the thing about boycotting is that boycotting does have 402 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 3: a purpose. Don't get me wrong, But a lot of 403 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 3: people fail to realize. Even in the Civil rights era, 404 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 3: even when Martin Luther king Nim was boycotting, there was 405 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 3: some niggas be like, why a y'all boycotting? Like everybody 406 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 3: ain't gonna go with boycotting, you know, people that like 407 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 3: that's the end all to everything. You just boycott and 408 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 3: it's just gonna not. Not the boycott can't change things. Not. 409 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 3: The boycott can't. Not The boycotting things can't cause things 410 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 3: to move and catch people's attention. Yes, you go out 411 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 3: to people's money, you know, motherfuckers will move. But once 412 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 3: you're you're asking sometimes individuals in a larger system to 413 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 3: make a riffle when their little riffle isn't going to 414 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 3: change the system. Sometimes it causes people outside of the 415 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 3: system to cause the change from the inside. 416 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, what I would say is that, I mean it's 417 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 2: a complete tagent from what we're talking about. 418 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: But just in general, a. 419 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 2: Boycott is people are too loose with the word boycott. 420 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: Correct, you're not boycotting. 421 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 2: You're just not participating in something unless you have an 422 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,479 Speaker 2: ask and unless it's organized. You didn't actually boycott anything. 423 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 2: Like It's like people will say, oh, Papa John's had 424 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 2: to they lost a bunch of money. The boycott worked. 425 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 2: Nobody ever really boycotted them. We all just decided collectively, 426 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 2: like I'm not buying this without talking. 427 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 3: To each other, right, there wasn't a call to action, 428 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 3: like like a lot of like you said, when you 429 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 3: say boycott, are you actually talking about somebody? 430 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 2: A boycott would say, if this CEO steps down, we 431 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 2: will start buying pizza again. They and they actually, well 432 00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 2: a lot of people don't know about boycott's. Back in 433 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:02,960 Speaker 2: the day, they actually would encourage you to go back 434 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,919 Speaker 2: to those places once your goals were reached. Right, So 435 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 2: like what we do now is a lot of like 436 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 2: I just don't fuck with that and then we never 437 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 2: go back or you know, you talk a big game 438 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 2: or whatever. But there's no ass there's no organization, there's 439 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 2: no sit down, there's no nothing, and there's no demands 440 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 2: being made. 441 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: So then we call stuff. I'm boycott in the NFL. No, 442 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:25,439 Speaker 1: you're not. 443 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: You're not watching because there's not a thing that they 444 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 2: can do that will cause us to come back, and 445 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,640 Speaker 2: no one has organized a movement around it to say. 446 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 1: Here's what we want from the NFL. 447 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 2: No, you just stop watching, and that's fine. I'm not 448 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 2: belittling what you're doing. What I'm saying is words mean things. 449 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 2: A boycott is not the right word when you just 450 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 2: stop doing something. 451 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 3: Right, or you're boycotting is something that you never participated 452 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 3: in the first place, that's not a boycott either. People 453 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 3: talking about I'm boycotting Chick fil A, Nigga, ain't no 454 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 3: Chick fil A within fifteen miles of you. What the 455 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 3: fuck are you boycott? And it would gin your money anyway? 456 00:22:55,560 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 2: In that case, that's also not a boycott. But it's 457 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 2: yeah that if so, let's say you did organize and 458 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,199 Speaker 2: you did have an ask, but you also had no 459 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,320 Speaker 2: effective way to like truly hurt their business, then that's 460 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,399 Speaker 2: just an uneffective boycott. What I'm saying is that in 461 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 2: most cases, not even we shouldn't even be calling this 462 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 2: shit boycott. And not that it's not to tug the 463 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 2: chain of the ancestor or anything, but it's almost disrespectful 464 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 2: to the words.

You can't 541 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 2: help us hear other people's thoughts.

But in general, she seems like she's doing 547 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 2: a lot of good work and speaking out and stuff. 548 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 2: And you know, to a certain extent, people just kind 549 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: of want to dismantle the entire framework of all white supremacy, 550 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 2: and they put it on individuals, as if each individual 551 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 2: can do it by themselves or us yelling at the 552 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 2: right individual fix it. And you know, I think that's 553 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 2: I think that is a I think it's an approach 554 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 2: that I would not find to be effective. 555 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 3: Right, It's approached that I don't agree with. Because the 556 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 3: thing is, there are a lot of mad and hurt 557 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:36,679 Speaker 3: and angry people out in the world, and you know, 558 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 3: for whatever reason, be it their own personal life, be 559 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 3: it the what's happening in the country, be it the presidency, 560 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 3: be at the laws, a lot of people are mad 561 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 3: and angry and frustrated, and for some people the only 562 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 3: way to let this frustration out is on social media 563 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 3: and then these big public platforms. So it's because you know, 564 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 3: these other issues you can't fix overnight, and you know, 565 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 3: these other issues require work, and most people are lazy 566 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 3: and they don't want to put in the work the 567 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 3: effort an organization, everybody looks at everybody else to get. 568 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 1: Out there and do the work. 569 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 3: And and so when people when everybody looking at and 570 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,119 Speaker 3: everybody else, nothing gets done. 571 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 1: And so there's a lot of very. 572 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 3: Frustrated people out there, and it's easier for you to 573 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:19,959 Speaker 3: criticize the people that are actually out there trying to 574 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 3: do something, doing the work, because you know they'll listen 575 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 3: to you, so it's easier to catch their attention, to 576 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 3: harass them, Tell them they ain't shit, Tell them they 577 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 3: should do better, Tell them it's more they could be doing, 578 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 3: when in the long run, there's nothing you're doing.

But they can't act 692 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 2: like it's not personal because they have zero reason to 693 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:40,200 Speaker 2: trust any other customer either, But they didn't. 694 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,320 Speaker 1: Lock everything, did they? 695 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: But when you see that, and your kids see it too, 696 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: you think, do they think I am a thief? Or 697 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 2: do they think all of us are thieves? Not only 698 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 2: that they get it out for you, and do you 699 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 2: pay for it? 700 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: Right? 701 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 3: Then? 702 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 2: No, you walk around with it? And then what it 703 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,560 Speaker 2: gives them a reason to watch you like a hawk? 704 00:33:57,720 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: Terrible? Right, terrible? It's trap. 705 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 2: The next best thing, which I know is me coming 706 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 2: from a white perspective, but ask for them to get 707 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 2: it once you are at the counter. That way it 708 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,880 Speaker 2: inconveniences them more than you. And also you know they 709 00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 2: will go get it asap instead of you standing in 710 00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 2: the out at their mercy and their leader. 711 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:15,360 Speaker 1: That's a good point. 712 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 2: It's overwhelming the myriad of ways that this is wrong, 713 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 2: But standing there waiting for someone to come open that 714 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,840 Speaker 2: cases to grading, and if it takes a long time, 715 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 2: you were just stand there, getting more and more angry 716 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 2: by the second. I also understand not wanting to make 717 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: a scene at the counter, So basically it's a no end. 718 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 2: Having that case is just very wrong. 719 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 3: Right cause, honey, you let Rebecca and Becky or Julia 720 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 3: have to go up there and it have to demand 721 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 3: some goddamn swave.

Go to one of these Asian beauty stores. 875 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: They lock all this shit up, watch you like a hog, 876 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:53,439 Speaker 1: treat you like shit. 877 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, right, And so if you're at a place where 878 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 3: you are financially stable enough where people talk about to 879 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 3: have access to the internet, Internet should be a right, 880 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 3: but it's a privilege in our country. So let's say 881 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,200 Speaker 3: you have access to the internet. Do you have to 882 00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 3: order the shit online? You have to have it sent 883 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 3: to your house. You So for some people that can't 884 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:13,879 Speaker 3: go around the system, but if you're in a place 885 00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 3: where you cannot go around the system, you have to 886 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 3: deal with this shit. 887 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:20,320 Speaker 2: How many black women are becoming rich or self sufficient 888 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,760 Speaker 2: off of being beauty bloggers and all that stuff, because 889 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 2: you do have to go around other people and stores 890 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 2: and brands don't really. 891 00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:29,920 Speaker 1: Stock up or pay attention. 892 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 2: There's a lot of people we know that make like 893 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 2: homemade beauty creams and shit, and you can order it 894 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,440 Speaker 2: online and they have their own stores. And that's all 895 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 2: possible because white spaces refuse to accommodate black people and black. 896 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,520 Speaker 1: Women specifically in their hair. So right, and they're making 897 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: people millionaires, yes they are. 898 00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:50,799 Speaker 3: And the thing about these entrepreneurs, one thing I can 899 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 3: say about black women, they go, oh, you're not serving me. 900 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 3: I'm gonna feel this hole myself. It happens across the board. 901 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,120 Speaker 3: That's why a lot of black women are very highly educated, 902 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 3: because they get these degrees and they take these degrees 903 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,239 Speaker 3: and they turn around, they start their own businesses, They 904 00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,800 Speaker 3: get their family and friends hooked up. They actually actually 905 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,879 Speaker 3: help brothers out there who, as a totality, probably don't 906 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 3: give a fuck about a lot of us. But we 907 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 3: still reach out and help y'all, you know, come on 908 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:18,600 Speaker 3: up too, because we care about the community as a whole. 909 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:24,319 Speaker 3: And it's very frustrating to see people with all this 910 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 3: education and shit get disrespected. Because the thing about black women, 911 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 3: Black women get tired. They get tired of constantly getting disrespected, 912 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 3: constant saying they money not worth anything, constantly getting overlooked, 913 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 3: constantly getting overserved. And we serve our markets and a 914 00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 3: lot of times what they do and what they don't 915 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:40,880 Speaker 3: tell you what they do.

Doesn't mean they're not 1002 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 2: supposed to do better. Also, the Grammys aren't. What I 1003 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:24,680 Speaker 2: think we're seeing now is the collective feelings of a 1004 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,319 Speaker 2: lot of black people that we have, and these are 1005 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 2: our social moments on social media where we're all watching 1006 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 2: something and having our feelings. And as much as I 1007 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 2: don't get offended by people who are celebrating the Grammys, 1008 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 2: I also, to be honest, don't really get offended at 1009 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 2: the people who are admonishing it or saying like, I 1010 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:50,280 Speaker 2: just don't have a lot of attachment to other people's 1011 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:54,440 Speaker 2: opinions when it comes to music, and I think that's 1012 00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,399 Speaker 2: that's healthy for me. I don't know if it's healthy 1013 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 2: for everybody, but it's definitely healthy for me. Like Okay, 1014 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 2: this thing happened. 1015 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:03,359 Speaker 1: You didn't like. 1016 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,400 Speaker 2: It, that's cool. I think the Grammys one of the 1017 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 2: reasons people watch it. It's an expensive production. People bring 1018 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:15,200 Speaker 2: their a game when they perform there, and they are 1019 00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:16,760 Speaker 2: accommodated in many ways. 1020 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 1: It's a lot of prestige. It's been going on for 1021 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:20,800 Speaker 1: a long time. 1022 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,799 Speaker 2: There's a lot of reasons to watch it just for 1023 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,479 Speaker 2: entertainment sake, and not, like I said, with social media, 1024 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 2: now you're just watching it because everybody else is watching it, correct, 1025 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 2: So like there's a lot of stuff. I think if 1026 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:34,400 Speaker 2: you can kind of filter out the noise of social 1027 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,719 Speaker 2: media and whatnot, and if you truly enjoyed it might 1028 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:39,840 Speaker 2: even be a thing you would people would watch. 1029 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 1: Without social media. 1030 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 2: But you know, for me, I've never been that kind 1031 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 2: of person to watch something like that, so I can't really. 1032 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,320 Speaker 2: I don't think your opinions unpopular. I feel like mine 1033 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 2: is more unpopular than yours, because I'm the one who's like, 1034 00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 2: I've never I don't think I've ever sat down and 1035 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 2: watched the Grammys ever in my life, you. 1036 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 1: Know what I mean. 1037 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 2: And not because I felt like the Black Man ain't 1038 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 2: but just literally, like I'm not interested in that. I've 1039 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 2: never I don't think I've ever watched the oscars, you know, 1040 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 2: it's just not interesting to me, Like I. 1041 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:15,040 Speaker 3: Got watch bits and pieces like I'm gonna put up 1042 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 3: in the channel or something like that. But I know 1043 00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 3: for some people this is very traditional, like this is 1044 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 3: something that you've always done, like it's a family event. 1045 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 3: So I can completely understand that. 1046 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 1: Well, I think. 1047 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 2: Also, I'm a bit of an ego maniac when it 1048 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:29,760 Speaker 2: comes to my artistic opinion. I don't really need anyone's 1049 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 2: validation for how I feel, you know. 1050 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:35,439 Speaker 1: And I try not to engage people, not because I'm 1051 00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 1: so fucking like I'm better than you, you don't know it. 1052 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 2: But because stuff does affect me.

Brodac Yello took over 1243 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:56,600 Speaker 2: every radio station there was, and while she had hits 1244 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:58,800 Speaker 2: that were not my personal forte, I know that she 1245 00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:00,560 Speaker 2: worked hard to get spun on the radio. I hope 1246 00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 2: she continues to win same. Here's the thing I'll say 1247 00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 2: about Carti. 1248 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:05,919 Speaker 1: One. 1249 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 2: Even with it just being this year, it's a super 1250 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,520 Speaker 2: it's a super lot of pressure to win. 1251 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, because Carti could be one and done. 1252 00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 2: We don't know what the future old for her, and 1253 00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 2: fucking with all said she might get canceled. I don't 1254 00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 2: know what the was off, but uh, but more important 1255 00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 2: than even that, though I don't know what category she 1256 00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 2: wanted to lost in. Like I said, I didn't watch it, 1257 00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 2: but it does mean a lot that she was there, right, 1258 00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 2: Like Carter's kind of a Super. 1259 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 1: Bowl commercial coming up tomorrow. 1260 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 2: Carti was uh in Bruno on Bruno's track, Like. 1261 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:43,320 Speaker 1: I heard the tour game and do a tour. 1262 00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:48,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, like Carti's star is rising, and sometimes just being 1263 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 2: in the room is to come up right, Like to me, 1264 00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 2: if I were gonna, if I was programmings right, I 1265 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:57,080 Speaker 2: watched the Grammys every year. If I was one of 1266 00:58:57,120 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 2: those people, the argument I would make is not even 1267 00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:04,280 Speaker 2: one about like tradition or I just want to support 1268 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,520 Speaker 2: my nah, I would be like every last one of 1269 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 2: those people is on the stage where more fans see 1270 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 2: them than any other stage. They will be able to 1271 00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 2: get on other than the super Bowl halftime. Correct, They're 1272 00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 2: gonna get exposed to a lot of people who may 1273 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,720 Speaker 2: or may not have even heard their album or bought 1274 00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:22,440 Speaker 2: it or way to a concert, and now they have 1275 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 2: five minutes to sell the country on what they do. 1276 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 2: That's the only argument. So if you're rooting for these 1277 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 2: black people and stuff, it's dope that Childish Gambino is 1278 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 2: performing out there even though he didn't even tour this album, 1279 00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 2: because it says there's a bunch of people in the 1280 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:38,920 Speaker 2: country now to go. 1281 00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 1: Oh. Donald Glover also sings and okay. 1282 00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:45,160 Speaker 2: You know, because these people might not be aware of 1283 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:48,240 Speaker 2: every genre the same way that it's fun to mock 1284 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:50,280 Speaker 2: it and make fun. But if there was a country 1285 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:53,480 Speaker 2: song and it turned out to be fucking jamming, it 1286 00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:56,280 Speaker 2: might be added to my Spotify or my title rotation 1287 00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 2: because I'm like, oh shit, what is this? 1288 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,520 Speaker 3: Come on? Like, I'm not a country fan, but I 1289 01:00:00,720 --> 01:00:02,600 Speaker 3: rock with a Beyonce's Dead and Lessons. 1290 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:04,880 Speaker 2: But it's a chance to sell, is what I'm saying. 1291 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 2: So that would be the argument I would make. And 1292 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:10,920 Speaker 2: Cardi got her chance, her personality, the way she was dressed, 1293 01:00:10,960 --> 01:00:13,640 Speaker 2: the performance.

I fuck up, I you know, 1768 01:22:05,680 --> 01:22:07,960 Speaker 2: the same way that I would hope to be able 1769 01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:12,000 Speaker 2: to resolve grievances where I fuck up, I would love 1770 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:16,160 Speaker 2: I'm going to always extend that same invitation towards people 1771 01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:20,120 Speaker 2: that have wronged me, you know, as long as it's 1772 01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:22,120 Speaker 2: not some abusive shit or some cyclical shit. 1773 01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:23,519 Speaker 1: Because players fuck up. 1774 01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:26,599 Speaker 2: And I'm not you know, like this ain't you know 1775 01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:29,200 Speaker 2: social media, you just delete the post or whatever, like 1776 01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:30,200 Speaker 2: this is real life. 1777 01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:32,000 Speaker 1: The damage we do to each other is real. 1778 01:22:32,760 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 2: And if you have no conflict resolution, if you have 1779 01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:41,080 Speaker 2: no closure or any of that stuff. Like people withhold 1780 01:22:41,120 --> 01:22:45,679 Speaker 2: those things almost from people because they get a little 1781 01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:47,840 Speaker 2: bit of power. It's like a little bit of power 1782 01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:50,360 Speaker 2: because that's it's a relatively small amount of power to 1783 01:22:50,479 --> 01:22:54,599 Speaker 2: withhold closure or withhold forgiveness or whatever, but it is 1784 01:22:54,680 --> 01:22:58,120 Speaker 2: power to a certain extent.
