<v Speaker 2>Well, you recently had COVID, so like you have your inoculation.

0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:53.560
<v Speaker 2>Small blessings, small blessings. Oh, speaking of church, we're finally

0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:56.920
<v Speaker 2>getting my heathen child baptized. So shout out to God.

0:03:58.240 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>I looked to this SI to go on or whatever.

0:04:03.040 --> 0:04:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah the case, I don't want to be the reason

0:04:06.640 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 1>that you're dan to health, danda, health, fire, damnation, what

0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:09.960
<v Speaker 1>is that?

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Damnation and brimstone and all that kind of stuff. No,

0:04:13.280 --> 0:04:15.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean I don't want to. Of course, you know

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 2>I whatever faith you believe, and I believe in that

0:04:18.200 --> 0:04:20.520
<v Speaker 2>with you and I'm here for it. But yeah, my

0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:24.600
<v Speaker 2>husband's family is on the Catholic side, and he was

0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:27.560
<v Speaker 2>the fact that he was a pandemic baby stopped being

0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 2>like a viable excuse. I don't know, like I mean,

0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:33.880
<v Speaker 2>technically he's still not vaccinated all the way, so I

0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:37.120
<v Speaker 2>feel like it's still a valid excuse. But yeah, so

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:40.520
<v Speaker 2>we are finally getting it together. He's he's two, so

0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:43.400
<v Speaker 2>it's been a minute. And yeah, it was funny because

0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:47.200
<v Speaker 2>we went to this like local church here and they

0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 2>have just been inundated by people who have moved to

0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:53.640
<v Speaker 2>the suburbs from the city, and they're like, wow, we're

0:04:53.720 --> 0:04:56.360
<v Speaker 2>very popular all of a sudden, you know, like all

0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:58.680
<v Speaker 2>these people from the city coming up and I guess

0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:03.160
<v Speaker 2>having like the pandemic baby boom now getting baptized. But yeah,

0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:06.240
<v Speaker 2>so I'm gonna take a little I don't have to

0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:09.000
<v Speaker 2>technically take a class. My husband was like, you better

0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.160
<v Speaker 2>get ready. We may have to have a church wedding,

0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 2>like you may have to go to school. And I'm

0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:16.320
<v Speaker 2>just like, fine, whatever it'll take for my mother in

0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:20.000
<v Speaker 2>law to just be happy. But yeah, I'm gonna I'm

0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:22.560
<v Speaker 2>gonna go to the little class for godparents just to

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 2>because I just want to be able to know exactly

0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:28.719
<v Speaker 2>what's going on. But that's gonna be a little family

0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:33.080
<v Speaker 2>affair at some point in September. So I don't know.

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:35.280
<v Speaker 2>I was asking and low ki, I was asking the

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:38.760
<v Speaker 2>the priest. I was like, so do you have like

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:42.360
<v Speaker 2>a water gun you're gonna chase him with? I do

0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 2>not see rio, you know, being cradled and you know,

0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:49.039
<v Speaker 2>blessed with holy water in peace.

0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:50.920
<v Speaker 1>But I also when I was baptized, I want to say,

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:53.320
<v Speaker 1>I was like I was old. I like walked on stage.

0:05:53.480 --> 0:05:55.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I was like in kindergarten or something. So

0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>I was like four or five, you know. So I

0:05:57.720 --> 0:05:59.640
<v Speaker 1>remember because I remember I loved my dress. I was like,

0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:03.039
<v Speaker 1>get it, and you know, you know, but there was

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:06.400
<v Speaker 1>we weren't. I wasn't Dune, you weren't dunk. It wasn't

0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:08.279
<v Speaker 1>like one of the pool ones. No. I just remember

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I think vaguely maybe he put order on my head

0:06:10.000 --> 0:06:12.919
<v Speaker 1>or something like that, you know. But yeah, I was like,

0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm want stage in front of everybody. Hey, hey, y'all

0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:17.920
<v Speaker 1>you see me up here in my dress? Lay? But yeah,

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:19.480
<v Speaker 1>I was. I was a big girl. I was literally

0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:21.120
<v Speaker 1>walked off stage. Was like, hey, I don't need don't

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.000
<v Speaker 1>hold my hand. I got it. Oh okay, So so

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 1>he's not like super old because I was just like,

0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:27.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, I don't know why don't get waited so long?

0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you can get baptize at any age. But it's

0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:32.520
<v Speaker 2>just like, but it's funny because my mom bought him

0:06:32.560 --> 0:06:34.480
<v Speaker 2>like a little baptism suit when he was a baby.

0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:37.479
<v Speaker 2>She got way too excited and uh, yeah, there's no

0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:38.440
<v Speaker 2>way he's fitting into that.

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, real probaly couldn't fit into that when he was

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.120
<v Speaker 1>a baby. He was tall, he was born tall.

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:46.479
<v Speaker 2>Probably probably what am I just gonna, like spend a

0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:49.760
<v Speaker 2>ridiculous amount of money on a white suit for him?

0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:53.279
<v Speaker 2>Like that seems silly. I don't know what's going on. Hey,

0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.440
<v Speaker 2>if you're listening and you've had a toddler baptized, what

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:57.640
<v Speaker 2>did you dress them in? So then I don't look

0:06:57.640 --> 0:07:02.000
<v Speaker 2>a fool out there? All right, this concludes our church announcement.

0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I like I would call that at the beginning like churchouse.

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Ah man, okay.

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:14.080
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, Well, can we get into student debt relief

0:07:14.440 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 2>for a minute, because the people, the girls, the guys,

0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 2>the human beings, y'all, this that relief planned. I was saying, like,

0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:27.360
<v Speaker 2>there's either the camp that is like pissed and mad.

0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.440
<v Speaker 2>It's like either not enough or we shouldn't have the

0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:35.080
<v Speaker 2>debt canceled at all. But I choose happiness. I choose optimism,

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 2>and I choose to be happy.

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:38.160
<v Speaker 1>We're getting I choose you.

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.400
<v Speaker 2>I just listen. I'm one of those people. You are

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:44.280
<v Speaker 2>too tip Like our student loans have been paid off, right, Yeah,

0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:48.360
<v Speaker 2>so like that I feel happy for y'all. Like I

0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:51.040
<v Speaker 2>don't feel I feel like if your loans were paid off,

0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:54.080
<v Speaker 2>you were capable of paying them off, you know, like

0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:57.520
<v Speaker 2>you made it happen. So it's not like like I'm

0:07:57.520 --> 0:07:59.280
<v Speaker 2>not gonna sit here and calculate, well, what if I

0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 2>had put that eight seven hundred and ninety three dollars

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:04.960
<v Speaker 2>in the stock market, you know, instead of paying it off?

0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:06.960
<v Speaker 2>What would I have now? Like I just I don't know.

0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:10.640
<v Speaker 2>I just choose to be happy for people. So what

0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 2>kinds of what should we cover? Should we just go

0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:16.320
<v Speaker 2>through like a quick roundup of what exactly it all entails?

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Yes we can.

0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 2>So starting with the amounts we got ten thousand dollars.

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:24.920
<v Speaker 2>If you have regular regular federal student loans, you're eligible

0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 2>for ten up to ten thousand dollars. And the up

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:30.800
<v Speaker 2>to is important because you know they love their fine print.

0:08:31.560 --> 0:08:33.280
<v Speaker 1>Can we just come for just for a second. Can

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:35.400
<v Speaker 1>we paused to say, this is why we be telling

0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:38.720
<v Speaker 1>the girls, like, if possible, if you have a choice

0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:41.320
<v Speaker 1>between private and federal, girl would be telling you to

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 1>go to federal. Wow, Because first of all, you know,

0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.319
<v Speaker 1>you didn't have to pay for basically three years we're

0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna be it's gonna be three full years that you

0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 1>didn't have to pay, and then this forgiveness component. And

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:54.800
<v Speaker 1>sometimes you don't have a choice. So obviously you know

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.200
<v Speaker 1>the private, right, bro, But to jump right into private

0:08:57.920 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 1>we don't suggest, but this is one of the reasons

0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:01.840
<v Speaker 1>why I just want them now when you know later

0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:03.240
<v Speaker 1>for those of you who might be just going to

0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:07.040
<v Speaker 1>college or whatever, like, and you're making these considerations, you're like, oh,

0:09:07.559 --> 0:09:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the federal student loans over private student loans unless you

0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:11.440
<v Speaker 1>don't have a choice.

0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:14.600
<v Speaker 2>Yes, absolutely, So starting with the amounts ten thousand dollars

0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.640
<v Speaker 2>or twenty thousand dollars, which one of those depends on

0:09:17.640 --> 0:09:19.480
<v Speaker 2>what type of loans you have. So if you have regular,

0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:23.120
<v Speaker 2>regular federal loans and you're eligible for up to ten thousand,

0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:27.240
<v Speaker 2>and then if you are a pelgrant recipient, which most

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:31.439
<v Speaker 2>households who qualify or families who qualify for pelgrants tend

0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:33.839
<v Speaker 2>to be on the lower income side. So if you're

0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:37.360
<v Speaker 2>a pelgrant recipient, you are eligible for up to double

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:41.120
<v Speaker 2>but the income requirement, of course. I feel like they

0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:43.520
<v Speaker 2>have the announcement out there about the income requirement, but

0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:46.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm still getting questions from people like so, if you

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:50.400
<v Speaker 2>have earned up to one hundred and twenty five thousand dollars,

0:09:50.559 --> 0:09:53.920
<v Speaker 2>you are eligible if your household income. If your personal

0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:56.960
<v Speaker 2>individual income is more than that, you're not eligible. And

0:09:57.000 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 2>then for a household, so if you have a household

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:04.440
<v Speaker 2>of two earners, two adults earning and income collectively if

0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:08.000
<v Speaker 2>you own, if you earn more than two hundred and

0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:11.920
<v Speaker 2>fifty thousand dollars, then you are not eligible. So one

0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:15.719
<v Speaker 2>twenty five or two fifty those are the magic numbers

0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:20.520
<v Speaker 2>for eligibility. Yeah, I would encourage anyone. So my sister

0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:22.800
<v Speaker 2>qualifies for this too, and I was like, student aid

0:10:23.120 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>dot go slash debt relief is like the home base

0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:30.720
<v Speaker 2>for all the knowledge, all the team.

0:10:30.880 --> 0:10:33.319
<v Speaker 1>We say that again, man, one more games, who just

0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:33.839
<v Speaker 1>grabbed a pan?

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:39.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, studentaid dot gov slash debt relief And if the

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:42.200
<v Speaker 2>site acts a little Craig Cray I think people crash

0:10:42.240 --> 0:10:44.079
<v Speaker 2>it over the weekend because I was trying to get

0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:47.400
<v Speaker 2>on it. Yeah, you can go to ed dot gov

0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:50.200
<v Speaker 2>and find your way there or white House dot gov.

0:10:50.720 --> 0:10:53.840
<v Speaker 2>There's also a good and it's like on their homepage.

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.360
<v Speaker 2>There's a great fact sheet on white House dot gov.

0:10:56.920 --> 0:10:59.960
<v Speaker 2>I think this is I feel like this is a meeting.

0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:02.480
<v Speaker 2>Whenever there's a new program, it's like, do not if

0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 2>anyone calls you and they're like, pay me one hundred dollars,

0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:08.200
<v Speaker 2>I'll get your application through. I'll make sure that you

0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:13.280
<v Speaker 2>qualify for the student Debt Relief Plan. No, no, immediately, No,

0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:16.520
<v Speaker 2>it's free. You don't have to do shit, I mean sorry,

0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:18.880
<v Speaker 2>you don't have to do anything part of my friend

0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:22.840
<v Speaker 2>to qualify other than call your student loan servicer and

0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:26.840
<v Speaker 2>make sure that your information is up to date. Your

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 2>income information, your phone, your address, your direct deposit, all

0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:33.240
<v Speaker 2>that is up to date.

0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:34.240
<v Speaker 1>You can do that.

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:38.600
<v Speaker 2>But as long as you hit those qualification markers, you should.

0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:41.480
<v Speaker 2>It should be automatic for you. There may be a

0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:44.559
<v Speaker 2>form that you have to sign up, sign up or sorry,

0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:48.680
<v Speaker 2>apply for technically, but that's going to be available to everybody.

0:11:49.200 --> 0:11:50.680
<v Speaker 2>And I think we're on the street as it's coming

0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:51.520
<v Speaker 2>out in October.

0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Okay, can we just talk about real quick the pettiness

0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.680
<v Speaker 1>level of the White House. So there's like, you know,

0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:05.679
<v Speaker 1>can we get in? So I don't know who's run

0:12:05.679 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 1>in the White House. It's clearly a millennial or a

0:12:07.679 --> 0:12:11.360
<v Speaker 1>z because I feel like ex's you know, we be

0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:12.840
<v Speaker 1>following the rules. We're like, oh, I don't want to

0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:16.320
<v Speaker 1>do that. So what happened was the number of probably

0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:19.600
<v Speaker 1>in too of course, were criming every river about this,

0:12:20.880 --> 0:12:23.280
<v Speaker 1>and they you know, were sharing like what will the

0:12:23.320 --> 0:12:26.360
<v Speaker 1>farmers do? It was just so random, like people will

0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:29.520
<v Speaker 1>have to pay for your you know, because you're getting

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:32.319
<v Speaker 1>loans forgiven people. It's going to the public is going

0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:36.280
<v Speaker 1>to have to ingest those you know, the payments. And

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:40.160
<v Speaker 1>so the White House and supreme pettiness would reshare the

0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:44.840
<v Speaker 1>person opposing this forgiveness plan with how much PPE loan

0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:47.280
<v Speaker 1>of forgiveness they receive. So it's like this person's like

0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:49.760
<v Speaker 1>they shouldn't get ten million, ten thousand, and then you

0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 1>see such and such was for had nine hundred thousand

0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:57.240
<v Speaker 1>of PPE money forgiven. Marjorie whatever, that lady, crazy lady

0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:00.000
<v Speaker 1>with with the blonde hair, you know, she had like

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:03.640
<v Speaker 1>one hundred something thousand a PPE loan forgiven. So it's

0:13:03.679 --> 0:13:07.000
<v Speaker 1>like PPP sid PPE. I don't know why PPE is like,

0:13:07.040 --> 0:13:07.640
<v Speaker 1>what is that in that?

0:13:07.760 --> 0:13:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Like the personal protective equipment isn't in a long pandemic

0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:15.880
<v Speaker 2>pneumonian terms. I got you, we know what you're talking about.

0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:19.040
<v Speaker 1>So I just thought that. I was like wait. At first,

0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I thought it was a joke, and

0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:22.360
<v Speaker 1>because if people were sharing it, I was like, oh,

0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:24.839
<v Speaker 1>maybe somebody just made this meme and no, no, no, it's

0:13:24.840 --> 0:13:27.800
<v Speaker 1>the actual White House account. Basically they did that. This.

0:13:28.000 --> 0:13:33.120
<v Speaker 1>You remember when Will Smith smacked Chris Rock in the

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Black Constituents. Although we do not agree with Will Smith

0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:39.440
<v Speaker 1>smacking Chris Rock, we are going to discuss it amongst ourselves,

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.560
<v Speaker 1>amongst family. You out there, you're not allowed to say

0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:43.400
<v Speaker 1>nothing about Will Smith. Don't say none about Will Smith.

0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:46.520
<v Speaker 1>And anyone who says something. People pulled up receipts to

0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:50.720
<v Speaker 1>say this. You like Jim Carrey saying whatever Will Smith,

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:53.720
<v Speaker 1>but mean while he forcibly kissed like I think Christina

0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Aguilera or somebody on stage, and they were like, Jim Carrey,

0:13:56.600 --> 0:14:00.440
<v Speaker 1>this you okay, be quiet. Anybody who said a little anything.

0:14:00.440 --> 0:14:02.480
<v Speaker 1>It's like, we're not saying Will is right. We're saying

0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:05.440
<v Speaker 1>we're not talking to you. And so they pulled the

0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:09.280
<v Speaker 1>immediate dissue and the White House did like, so you

0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:12.760
<v Speaker 1>don't want regular people to have this ten thousand dollars

0:14:12.760 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 1>potentially up to twenty thousand dollars forgiven, but you can

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 1>be forgiven. I just saw a clip about you know

0:14:18.600 --> 0:14:21.720
<v Speaker 1>the dr you know, Boltimort of personal Finance that we

0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:26.240
<v Speaker 1>don't mention his name. He was basically saying, how oh,

0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.520
<v Speaker 1>this is just for the Biden administration to get you

0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:30.600
<v Speaker 1>guys to like that before you know, midterms. And I'm like,

0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:35.960
<v Speaker 1>probably right. I'm like, I mean, so give me dinner

0:14:36.000 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 1>before you seduce me, right, take me out shoe and

0:14:40.040 --> 0:14:43.560
<v Speaker 1>so you know where everybody's aware. And he was like,

0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:45.720
<v Speaker 1>basically that people should be responsible for their own debt.

0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, and yet when you go to DR's website,

0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:51.720
<v Speaker 1>he literally has my bankruptcy story. He had a net

0:14:51.800 --> 0:14:55.240
<v Speaker 1>worth of a million dollars. This is him his sanctioned

0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:58.800
<v Speaker 1>website that the words there are words that he said, yes,

0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:01.200
<v Speaker 1>put up here off of bankruptcy when he was in

0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:03.720
<v Speaker 1>his mid twenties and he had a net worth of

0:15:03.720 --> 0:15:05.960
<v Speaker 1>a million dollars. This is what his website says. So

0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I'm confused. How do you say confused in Spanish?

0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:13.680
<v Speaker 2>That might be confounded? But close enough, that's good.

0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:24.280
<v Speaker 1>Closer You're I don't get because I'm just like, here's

0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:28.720
<v Speaker 1>the thing, how are you going to apply for bankruptcy? Mister?

0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:33.560
<v Speaker 1>I was a millionaire and then when the pores, including myself,

0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:36.200
<v Speaker 1>well I'm not a poor but I was, I was like, hey,

0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm having a hard time. I would love my helth

0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:40.640
<v Speaker 1>because this would have been so helpful when I needed it. No,

0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:48.200
<v Speaker 1>not you. It's giving hypocrisy, it's giving patriarchy, it's giving selfishness.

0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:50.280
<v Speaker 1>It's giving. I don't really care about people. I just

0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:51.720
<v Speaker 1>care about myself and as long as I can get

0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:54.280
<v Speaker 1>what I need to get, forget about everybody else. You know,

0:15:54.840 --> 0:15:58.280
<v Speaker 1>it's giving. Dave Ramsey did we say his name? Am there?

0:15:58.320 --> 0:15:58.560
<v Speaker 2>You go?

0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:01.480
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I just to share that component too, that

0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:05.160
<v Speaker 1>like some of the people are angry, and you know,

0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:09.280
<v Speaker 1>but who cares if you if you qualify, you know,

0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:11.120
<v Speaker 1>for some people, honestly, it's not even even nearly enough.

0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I had a friend, she has her master, She owes

0:16:13.120 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 1>six figures and she's like, girl, this is just a

0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:18.680
<v Speaker 1>little dropping a bucket. I guess. So some people are

0:16:18.680 --> 0:16:20.560
<v Speaker 1>saying it's not enough. Some people say it's too much.

0:16:20.600 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Some people are saying you shouldn't do it at all.

0:16:23.040 --> 0:16:26.640
<v Speaker 1>But either way, it's happening. We still start somewhere. Yes,

0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:27.080
<v Speaker 1>And you.

0:16:27.040 --> 0:16:30.880
<v Speaker 2>Know what, it has been a long few years since

0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:32.800
<v Speaker 2>Biden was elected. Has it been a few years. How

0:16:32.840 --> 0:16:36.040
<v Speaker 2>many years has it been. It feels like seventy eleven. Anyway,

0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:39.760
<v Speaker 2>it's been a minute, right, and at least finally we

0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:44.680
<v Speaker 2>are seeing some action. Okay, we have had some gun reform,

0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:46.680
<v Speaker 2>and it's never going to be enough for everybody, you

0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.640
<v Speaker 2>know what I mean. Like, we have had this huge

0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:54.240
<v Speaker 2>inflation Reduction Act that was just passed, which has you know,

0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:59.760
<v Speaker 2>given so much more access to American households, like given

0:16:59.800 --> 0:17:04.200
<v Speaker 2>you subsidies to invest in like electronic vehicles. That's the

0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:06.280
<v Speaker 2>only thing that stands out to me because my husband

0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:08.960
<v Speaker 2>has been hammering that home in my head ever since

0:17:08.960 --> 0:17:11.160
<v Speaker 2>it was passed. But now we have the student debt

0:17:11.200 --> 0:17:14.920
<v Speaker 2>relief now and I feel like progressives, like people were like, oh,

0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:16.840
<v Speaker 2>it should be fifty k, it should be more but

0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:18.960
<v Speaker 2>at least we started somewhere right. We said a president

0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:22.960
<v Speaker 2>no pun intended, and I feel like, let's see what happens.

0:17:23.800 --> 0:17:26.320
<v Speaker 2>We should also mention that it wasn't just about debt relief.

0:17:26.359 --> 0:17:30.399
<v Speaker 2>This this I don't know this action that he took.

0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:35.119
<v Speaker 2>It's also extending one final time your moratorium on federal

<v Speaker 2>wat you look.

0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:29.159
<v Speaker 1>Back at some of the things I was watching. I

0:19:29.160 --> 0:19:32.119
<v Speaker 1>was like, what was I watching? First of all, I

0:19:32.280 --> 0:19:34.119
<v Speaker 1>remember when Miss Cleo first came out with you. You

0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:37.520
<v Speaker 1>were too young? No, I remember late night call me now.

0:19:38.200 --> 0:19:40.399
<v Speaker 1>So I don't know if it was miss Cleo, but

0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I remember back in the day, I had just learned

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:43.359
<v Speaker 1>to use the phone because my parents taught me how

0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:46.760
<v Speaker 1>to call in case something happened, and I just thought

0:19:46.840 --> 0:19:49.560
<v Speaker 1>that you could just call phone numbers. Girl. When that

0:19:49.600 --> 0:19:52.879
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and fifty dollars bill came in, my dad's like,

0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:55.720
<v Speaker 1>who has been calling? And I'm like, I don't understand.

0:19:56.040 --> 0:19:58.960
<v Speaker 1>I didn't understand that you paid. Girl. Anytime a phone

0:19:59.000 --> 0:20:01.439
<v Speaker 1>number came across the screen, I ran in my car

0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:06.360
<v Speaker 1>and I'd be like, hello, hello girl. Let's just say

0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:08.359
<v Speaker 1>I hain't never called nobody again.

0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Age brother in the era of Skinnemac and pay per view,

0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:17.360
<v Speaker 2>let me just say, okay, we got a phone bill.

0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:19.000
<v Speaker 2>I think he was like, it wasn't even like one

0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:21.520
<v Speaker 2>of those sexy time phone hotlines that he called. It

0:20:21.560 --> 0:20:24.240
<v Speaker 2>was like Victoria's secret customer service line that he called

0:20:24.320 --> 0:20:27.400
<v Speaker 2>and some or something like that. Anyway, anyway, shout out

0:20:27.440 --> 0:20:30.399
<v Speaker 2>to listen, no matter if it was smartphones. Before smartphones,

0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:33.760
<v Speaker 2>kids have been finding a way to run a phone bills.

0:20:33.600 --> 0:20:37.119
<v Speaker 1>Since if they not buying your rob lucks or whatever. Literally,

0:20:37.160 --> 0:20:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Karen was like Roman was on her on her and

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:42.959
<v Speaker 1>his tablet, and she was like, did you just buy

0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:45.520
<v Speaker 1>a game? He said, the other one's boring? He good

0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:48.520
<v Speaker 1>at table She thought I had these you know, like

0:20:48.560 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 1>you have these things on that people. The kids can't

0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:53.440
<v Speaker 1>buy stuff. He thoughts that to buy what he wanted

0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:57.359
<v Speaker 1>to buy, these kids will be running up your bill

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:05.720
<v Speaker 1>no matter what. So I'm going to boost this time.

0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Well I think I boosted the last time too, but

0:21:08.520 --> 0:21:10.879
<v Speaker 1>this actually just came across my time of the line.

0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:14.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's see. I took a picture of it, so I

0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:17.520
<v Speaker 1>went in I again photos, so I couldn't believe. I'm like,

0:21:17.600 --> 0:21:21.600
<v Speaker 1>is this real? It is apparently Nigeria shout out to

0:21:21.680 --> 0:21:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the Nijabs, which I am, becomes the first country to

0:21:25.280 --> 0:21:29.680
<v Speaker 1>ban white and British models in all advertising. They said,

0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 1>we have two hundred million beautiful people here. We will

0:21:33.400 --> 0:21:36.479
<v Speaker 1>use our own. I've never had that before and I

0:21:36.600 --> 0:21:40.600
<v Speaker 1>was like, okay, because well here's the thing that that's like.

0:21:40.760 --> 0:21:45.040
<v Speaker 1>So I think that's it's I think having your people

0:21:45.119 --> 0:21:49.720
<v Speaker 1>reflected in advertising is critically important because it it is

0:21:49.800 --> 0:21:51.520
<v Speaker 1>one of the reasons why there's so much self hate

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:53.040
<v Speaker 1>because if you look and you're like, well, you're telling

0:21:53.040 --> 0:21:54.800
<v Speaker 1>me that's what's beautiful and that doesn't look like me

0:21:54.920 --> 0:21:56.960
<v Speaker 1>at all. And I will say I was actually surprised

0:21:57.000 --> 0:21:59.800
<v Speaker 1>about that. I'm like, okay, all for representation, but I'm

0:21:59.840 --> 0:22:03.000
<v Speaker 1>so because typically what I've gone to Nigeria, I haven't.

0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:06.479
<v Speaker 1>You don't really see that's usually what you see. You

0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:09.040
<v Speaker 1>see black people on ads. Now, what I really want

0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:11.959
<v Speaker 1>Nigeria to do is ban lightening of skin, you know.

0:22:12.000 --> 0:22:16.280
<v Speaker 1>And maybe that's why they're doing this, because there's like

0:22:16.320 --> 0:22:20.080
<v Speaker 1>an epidemic, if you will, of skin lightning. I mean,

0:22:20.080 --> 0:22:22.600
<v Speaker 1>it's gotten it. Before it used to just be creams

0:22:23.400 --> 0:22:25.880
<v Speaker 1>and like, but you could tell because people's knuckles would

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:28.160
<v Speaker 1>be dark still because you can't really lighten the knuckles.

0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:30.560
<v Speaker 1>So and then also too, the cream would lighten you

0:22:30.560 --> 0:22:33.760
<v Speaker 1>in a very unnatural way, you know. And then people

0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:37.480
<v Speaker 1>started taking pills that would like, I don't know, reduce

0:22:37.560 --> 0:22:42.280
<v Speaker 1>your melanin. Yes, And now many people get IV fluids.

0:22:42.680 --> 0:22:44.680
<v Speaker 1>There's like a like a medicine that you can take.

0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:46.520
<v Speaker 1>There's actually a medicine you could take that actually make

0:22:46.520 --> 0:22:48.520
<v Speaker 1>yourself darker, but there's also this like IV that you

0:22:48.520 --> 0:22:51.480
<v Speaker 1>could take that makes yourself lighter. Like it's crazy and

0:22:51.520 --> 0:22:53.880
<v Speaker 1>really dangerous and can mess up all parts of your

0:22:54.359 --> 0:22:59.640
<v Speaker 1>So I'm hoping that this is having advertisements that largely

0:22:59.720 --> 0:23:03.560
<v Speaker 1>reflect like the population will allow people to see just

0:23:03.640 --> 0:23:09.000
<v Speaker 1>how beautiful they are already. So I was like, Okay, yeah,

0:23:09.080 --> 0:23:11.159
<v Speaker 1>so we'll see with all that, because I feel like

0:23:11.600 --> 0:23:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that I've seen that many non black

0:23:14.119 --> 0:23:16.640
<v Speaker 1>people in advertisers in Nigeria. I mean it's only I've

0:23:16.680 --> 0:23:19.359
<v Speaker 1>only been a few times and it's been a while.

0:23:20.520 --> 0:23:22.440
<v Speaker 1>But I'm wondering I would have to do some research.

0:23:22.440 --> 0:23:24.000
<v Speaker 1>I just literally saw a chem across I would have

0:23:24.040 --> 0:23:26.480
<v Speaker 1>to do some research. Is it as a result of

0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:30.560
<v Speaker 1>the of the lightning epidemic that maybe people saw themselves

0:23:30.640 --> 0:23:33.280
<v Speaker 1>more they wouldn't want to not look like themselves. I

0:23:33.280 --> 0:23:34.159
<v Speaker 1>don't know, it's.

0:23:34.040 --> 0:23:37.640
<v Speaker 2>Not even I mean for me obviously I'm not Nigerian,

0:23:38.160 --> 0:23:42.080
<v Speaker 2>but I feel like what we really need, well, what

0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 2>we need in addition to things like that, is how

0:23:45.320 --> 0:23:48.280
<v Speaker 2>can we invest in young girls self love? Because I

0:23:48.320 --> 0:23:52.119
<v Speaker 2>feel like when you are when you are growing, when

0:23:52.160 --> 0:23:54.280
<v Speaker 2>you grow up in an environment where you're surrounded by

0:23:54.280 --> 0:23:57.520
<v Speaker 2>women who love their skin, they love their hair, they

0:23:57.560 --> 0:24:02.000
<v Speaker 2>love their bodies, then that it's like it's it's infusing

0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, young girls who grow up and then they're

0:24:04.600 --> 0:24:07.439
<v Speaker 2>not because the problem with advertising and even I mean

0:24:07.520 --> 0:24:09.720
<v Speaker 2>like advertising is kind of old school, like everyone's on

0:24:09.760 --> 0:24:15.280
<v Speaker 2>social media now. It's when we glorify you know, European beauty,

0:24:15.400 --> 0:24:18.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, ideals, we're doing it like because we're seeing

0:24:18.800 --> 0:24:20.720
<v Speaker 2>it and then we're thinking, oh, but I'm not that.

0:24:20.880 --> 0:24:23.119
<v Speaker 2>So like it's really about can we get to a

0:24:23.119 --> 0:24:26.679
<v Speaker 2>place where little girls can see, you know, Eurocentric beauty

0:24:26.760 --> 0:24:29.760
<v Speaker 2>and just think, oh, that's good for her and I'm

0:24:30.040 --> 0:24:32.360
<v Speaker 2>gorgeous and beautiful too, And I mean that's a lot.

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:34.800
<v Speaker 2>That's like that's going to take generations. I think we

0:24:34.840 --> 0:24:37.760
<v Speaker 2>need a generation, a couple of generations with a fair.

0:24:38.320 --> 0:24:41.800
<v Speaker 1>There definitely is I mean when I was, there a

0:24:42.200 --> 0:24:46.359
<v Speaker 1>hierarchy of like light skin is better, and it's like

0:24:46.400 --> 0:24:48.840
<v Speaker 1>where does that come from? When the truth is the

0:24:48.880 --> 0:24:52.720
<v Speaker 1>average person I'm like the average complexion, you know, for

0:24:52.800 --> 0:24:54.640
<v Speaker 1>at least for like, you know, the part of Nigeria

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:56.879
<v Speaker 1>that my family's from. That Like, so it's like, well,

0:24:56.920 --> 0:25:01.640
<v Speaker 1>where does that come from? You know? And I mean

0:25:01.760 --> 0:25:03.480
<v Speaker 1>and here's the thing. The advertising is one thing, but

0:25:03.480 --> 0:25:06.680
<v Speaker 1>there's still social media. There's still you know, you can't

0:25:06.720 --> 0:25:09.040
<v Speaker 1>hyphenough to your point, it's like, well, if we're going

0:25:09.119 --> 0:25:11.160
<v Speaker 1>to do the ads, can we do can we do

0:25:11.320 --> 0:25:14.879
<v Speaker 1>ads where people are not lightening their skin? Let's denormalize

0:25:14.920 --> 0:25:15.720
<v Speaker 1>that because.

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:19.840
<v Speaker 2>When you ban those products, like like a public health emergency,

0:25:19.920 --> 0:25:22.080
<v Speaker 2>it is that you can even sell that shit on

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:25.200
<v Speaker 2>the shelves, because what would be the health use other

0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:27.560
<v Speaker 2>than like, that's a wild to me.

0:25:27.720 --> 0:25:29.840
<v Speaker 1>When I heard that people could take pills and ivs

0:25:29.880 --> 0:25:32.680
<v Speaker 1>to do that, I'm like, what, Like, literally, if you

0:25:32.720 --> 0:25:34.280
<v Speaker 1>look at there's some people like for example, you look

0:25:34.320 --> 0:25:38.359
<v Speaker 1>at Sammy Sosa. You know he's a Dominican I believe,

0:25:38.400 --> 0:25:41.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm a very famous baseball player, and like you see

0:25:42.040 --> 0:25:45.480
<v Speaker 1>like the type of lightning that his skin has undergone.

0:25:45.560 --> 0:25:48.840
<v Speaker 1>It's not something you can get from cream. You know

0:25:49.080 --> 0:25:54.800
<v Speaker 1>that he's using something a more permanent, stronger method. And

0:25:54.880 --> 0:25:58.200
<v Speaker 1>so it's like really like whoa, whoa, whoa whoa? Yes?

0:25:59.280 --> 0:26:01.320
<v Speaker 2>And so is that what like little Kim was doing.

0:26:01.320 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 2>It's a little little Kim.

0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh dad, Yeah, I see Sadie Sosa. Do your Google's

0:26:06.720 --> 0:26:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Mandy's looking at it? Now? Look at Mandy. I can

0:26:08.760 --> 0:26:10.160
<v Speaker 1>say I can literally see your eyes go back many

0:26:10.200 --> 0:26:16.840
<v Speaker 1>from I'm watching you. That's not the extreme.

0:26:17.240 --> 0:26:19.520
<v Speaker 2>That isn't feel like I don't know.

0:26:19.640 --> 0:26:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's people don't have access to that. So they're

0:26:21.520 --> 0:26:25.760
<v Speaker 1>using these creams that break them out in rashes and girls.

0:26:25.840 --> 0:26:27.960

<v Speaker 2>in the full figured women's side of TikTok. There's so

0:28:47.200 --> 0:28:49.840
<v Speaker 2>much positive body content out there if you guys look

0:28:49.920 --> 0:28:54.080
<v Speaker 2>for it, Like there are incredible content creators, and they

0:28:54.200 --> 0:28:57.880
<v Speaker 2>are just glorifying bodies that look like the ones that

0:28:57.920 --> 0:29:00.600
<v Speaker 2>I see every day. Like I took my son to

0:29:00.640 --> 0:29:02.760
<v Speaker 2>the pool this morning and I didn't even worry about

<v Speaker 2>body love self love movement because like I'm at this point.

0:29:19.720 --> 0:29:24.200

0:29:24.360 --> 0:29:27.360
<v Speaker 2>the body that I have in the moment that I

0:29:27.400 --> 0:29:29.800
