00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:38,840
Speaker 1: the movies, and I haven't been to the movie theater

15
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: since before the pandemic, so it was a great experience

16
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 1: to go and for that to be like the first

17
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 1: movie I went back to see, it felt good. Well,

18
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: thank you for going to the movies, because yeah, it's

19
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: I have to say. When I started going back the

20
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 1: first time I went, I was like, it's a nice experience.

21
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 1: Did you get popcorn? I got sur pass kids, and

22
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: I went to the ipicks. I got to order a

23
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: drink from my seat. Oh you got you got to

24
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: win with the Yeah, yeah, that didn't given a blanket.

25
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 1: I watched it on Peacock. Oh you did that? It

26
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: all comes. Does it change how you approach movies when

27
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: you do them now, depending on what it's gonna be on?

28
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: Not really just if I like it, because you know,

29
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: this one wasn't independent. Okay, so we did it not

30
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: knowing well if anybody was gonna see it, you do pray,

31
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: but you know, And then it went through the festival

32
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: route um and then Peacock and Focus acquired it. They

33
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: bought it also part of your production company, right rh negative. Yes, yeah,

34
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: it's the first thing. That's that huge deal. Yeah, we

35
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: were excited. You know. The Ebo Twins, they're just they're

36
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: I just like them. They have a nice I just

37
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: think they have an interesting point of view about things,

38
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: especially right now. So it was their writing debut, also

39
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: right for our future. Okay, so explain it, so break

40
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: it all down for us, so we know so they

41
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: so so basically, the Evo Twins wrote a script. They

42
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: did a short before we even came to be sent

43
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: the script where I read the script, loved it, and

44
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: watched the shorts, and then they went out and raised

45
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: the money basically, and we shot the film in Atlanta,

46
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: and then after we shot the film, they edited then

47
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 1: a pretty short amount of time and then we um

48
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: it made it into Sundance and then m yeah, that

49
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: was it. Focus Universal I bought Jordan Peel actually was

50
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 1: the one whose deal is at Focus. That loved it

51
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: and then and then Focused Universal ended up. That's an

52
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 1: amazing first look for all of you. Yeah, I thought

53
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: it was gonna be a screen comedy, but then it

54
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 1: got real darker. What do you think when you saw

55
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: the script? I know, I thought it was gonna be

56
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: a well, you know what, Well, I thought a lot

57
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: of things probably, but yeah, there was a point where

58
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: you read it and you're like, oh, it's funny, and

59
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 1: then it just starts taking turns that are really Oh, look,

60
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 1: it's so weird. I got DejaVu because I just saw

61
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: you um, and then it got really and then it

62
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: does get dark, but I was happy that it has

63
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: something to say. Absolutely that was important. What's your experience

64
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: with church growing up? So my grandmother went to a

65
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: Baptist church, So in the summers, I would go to

66
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: a Baptist church and then but my mother raised us

67
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: in like a non denominational, like really kind of quiet

68
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: church because she had grown up in the South and

69
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: Baptist churches. So I love singing in churches, like I

70
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: love to go. I've been to every church in La.

71
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 1: If it's a church in La, I've been there because

72
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: I just I like it. Why can't you find a

73
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: church home? It's why you know what I have Because

74
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: sometimes I would like the singing, maybe not the message.

75
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: Sometimes I would like there was one church I loved it,

76
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: but you know, the neighborhood. It was a lot of

77
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: members were gang members, and so she was really preaching

78
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: to people trying to get out the game. We were

79
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,839
Speaker 1: just talking about it, and I was like, I don't

80
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: me and my friend used to be like, I don't

81
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: know if this message is for us. So then you know,

82
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: it's kind of finding what resonates um. I really have

83
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: to know. Did you have any reservations when you first

84
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,960
Speaker 1: read the script? Because religious folks don't play about church

85
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: in religion in Jesus, Yeah, so did you have any

86
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: reservations because of day? Well, I mean I think we

87
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: knew that we that there were going to be people

88
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 1: and groups who were not necessarily going to um enjoy

89
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: the movie. But no, I mean I think I think

90
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: I liked the world and the character, and I mean

91
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: I think that's a part of what you know, art

92
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,840
Speaker 1: has the ability to do, so, you know, I mean,

93
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,359
Speaker 1: I thought they came from a very respectful place. But

94
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: you know, those are issues that churches have faced publicly privately,

95
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 1: so it's not like we expose something. But I guess

96
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,279
Speaker 1: it maybe hasn't done been done in the movie. But yeah,

97
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I certainly was aware that there could be

98
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: I mean Sterling too, but I think because we both

99
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: do respect the church, we felt like it was at

100
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: least coming from a place of good intention. I saw

101
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people tweeting this is Oscar's worthy and

102
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: this is Regina Hall's Oscar moment. What did you think

103
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 1: about that? Did you see all of that as it

104
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 1: was trending on social media? You know, I'm not on Twitter,

105
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: so it's horrible. It's not on my phone. I don't

106
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,480
Speaker 1: I'm not good on social media. But that is so

107
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: nice to hear. Actually, one of my friends called and said,

108
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: maybe it's doing well on Twitter. You did a phenomenal

109
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: job in that though. I have to say, as I'm

110
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: Trinity was your character, but seeing how you were able

111
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 1: to flip from being like the first lady in the

112
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,239
Speaker 1: church to being angry to telling somebody go fuck yourself

113
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,000
Speaker 1: to saying God bless me, you know, in the span

114
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: of just a few seconds. I mean, I thought you

115
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: did an amazing job. How did you feel while you

116
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: were playing this role? And how did you even prepare

117
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: for it? You know I did. There's a lot of

118
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: information and like first with First Ladies online YouTube, they

119
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 1: have a lot of shows. I spoke to some, but

120
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 1: they do have shows and some more prominent First Ladies.

121
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: I looked at a lot of their stuff and I

122
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: read a lot of stuff. I mean, I just did research.

123
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: I think I just I did feel like when I

124
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: watched them, they had a m you know, it's always well,

125
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: you're married, right, so we will never know what your

126
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: wife does to support you. But I'm going to assume

127
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: it's a lot, right, Oh, absolutely so. I just think

128
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: it's that idea that like you might not see what

129
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: a spouse, in this case, the first lady of a

130
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: church does for the support when her her you know,

131
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: man is facing public kind of difficult situations. But then

132
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 1: they also have a real issue, and then of course

133
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: she has her relationship to God, and I think that's

134
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: why she feels very um committed to the covenant of marriage.

135
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: That's the only part that felt unrealistic was that he um,

136
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: I don't give too much away, but he didn't. There

137
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 1: was never a moment where he was worried about you.

138
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:06,280
Speaker 1: It seems like it was just always about him in

139
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 1: the church. Narcissisted. Yeah, yeah, you ever dealt with anybody

140
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: like that? I don't think I've ever it's ever been

141
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: that extreme, that extreme, But I mean, I guess it

142
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: depends on points people are at in their life, you know.

143
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I you know, I've had I've had really

144
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: nice people I've you know, I mean, I'm friends probably

145
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: I would say with everyone mostly that I've dated, and

146
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: they they were well, no, you know what, Now that

147
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: I think about it, there was one who was a

148
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: little bit like, now that I think about it, there

149
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: was one. But we're friends now, so it's fine. But yeah,

150
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: he was like, I didn't get it when you were

151
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: saying it, I didn't get it. You know it took him.

152
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: It took him like two years, have you that has

153
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: happened to you for him to for him to really

154
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I didn't really grasp the magnitude of

155
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: what I did. You know, what I do have an

156
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: exploy and who this thing that I've been working on.

157
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: I actually interviewed him about why he used to do

158
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: the things that he did, and we had a we

159
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 1: never even had a conversation about it when we broke up,

160
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: but it was interesting to hear what he had to

161
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: say and for him to hear what I had to say, right, Yeah,

162
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: sometimes this perspective and you have to get a little

163
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: bit of distance away from it. Yeah, you think you

164
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:26,119
Speaker 1: could stand by a man who had those like specific allegations. No, well,

165
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: Regina couldn't know Gina could. I was like, I know

166
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:41,239
Speaker 1: that was that was sad, right, It was all yeah, yeah, unfulfilled.

167
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 1: Can we do it the other way this time? Like

168
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: what I know? Right? Right? But I really think that

169
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: she thought this is the this is this is the

170
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: crossroad he's facing. We can pray this away and that

171
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: and and I really and then you saw the scene

172
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 1: with her mother. I think I think that was the

173
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: reason she felt compelled in church. You feel like you

174
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 1: can't get a divorce, like it's the worst thing. My

175
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: grandfather uses him my mom all the time, Like, no

176
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 1: matter what, divorce is wrong, you have to stay married.

177
00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: Once you get married, it's forever. You may they feel

178
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 1: like it could divide the church, you know, and then

179
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: like so sometimes even if they're living separate lives publicly,

180
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: they'll just stay together. But that's the beauty of the movie.

181
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 1: The beauty and movie shows that people can you can

182
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: be human, but y'all are still human even though you're

183
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,439
Speaker 1: passed in the first lady, Yes, yes, yeah, yeah, I

184
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: mean I think listen, if you know, he has his

185
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 1: things that he's I don't even want to say struggles

186
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: with because that makes it seem like it's something bad.

187
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: He has his reality of who he is that he

188
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: just can't because he can't ever really live out because publicly, right,

189
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 1: he can't stop, but he can't stop himself. And like

190
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: maybe if he were allowed to do him, they would

191
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: have been best friends. She would have met somebody else

192
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 1: that was more appropriate, and then he would have met

193
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: someone who was more appropriate, and then they would have

194
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: gone to dinner together and when you wouldn't have had

195
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: the bedroom scene. Can you imagine now a picture this

196
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: in real life? No, when we did. When I've read

197
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 1: the bedroom scene, I was like, this is worse than

198
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: doing a love scene. Like it was more offered for

199
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: us to do that scene than if we had done

200
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: like a hot and heavy scene, just because of the

201
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: subject matter and the and the the dialogue. It was

202
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,640
Speaker 1: sad because they you know, she wasn't gonna no less

203
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: she had lay there mad because that would piss you off. Oh,

204
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, And that's the reality of how it

205
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: was always happening. That was oscar worthy to look at

206
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: disappointment on your face after you did what you did

207
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: to him and then he slept, he did no shame,

208
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: no no. And then I also was thinking, and I

209
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: might have been reading too deep into this, but all

210
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 1: these scenes, but the different hats, you know, And I

211
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:05,199
Speaker 1: was like, she wears a lot of different hats too.

212
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: Oh that's how. But I think they might not have

213
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: been thinking like that because no, but I could use

214
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 1: it would be like with the hats symbolized the many

215
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: different hats. No, but it is, yeah, I mean the

216
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,280
Speaker 1: hat was symbolic of her. Finally, Oh, look at Kevin

217
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:28,439
Speaker 1: of her finally making that um decision in that she

218
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 1: would have boundaries, the nervous telling you about your hat,

219
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: he said, it made me look old. God, I actually

220
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: do feel kind of bad, you know what I'm saying,

221
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: like for you know, just because to have had such

222
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 1: a successful mega church, and we've seen it happen time

223
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: and time again where these megachurches, the scandal happens. I mean,

224
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,079
Speaker 1: we've had people up here who have experienced that in

225
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: real life, you know, and then everything falls down that

226
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 1: you built for so long. It's a hard thing because

227
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: you know, the designer close the three thousand dollars hats

228
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: of the houses, the cars, the cars. My favorite thing

229
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 1: was when they had to stay humble signed. I was like,

230
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: what do you think about like pastors and their wives

231
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 1: making that much money, because at the same time, you know,

232
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,079
Speaker 1: you should be entitled to have nice things. But he's

233
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 1: like the jets, you know, all of those things that

234
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: the cars, the luxury automobiles, the homes, successive. Yeah, you know,

235
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:34,320
Speaker 1: church is a full on culture. I think. I think

236
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: if you buy into that culture, you will you know.

237
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I know pastors used to certainly believe that

238
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 1: the only way they could spread the world was this

239
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: is pre internet, so you can spread it differently. Now,

240
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if you have to have the planes,

241
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,319
Speaker 1: but I mean, I always you know, I would hope

242
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: it's balanced by helping their communities, you know what I mean,

243
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,719
Speaker 1: and people in their congregation, people who go to church

244
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 1: who need I don't know, mortgage payments or lights or

245
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: you know, you know, people with kids. So I would

246
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: imagine you'd have to see how someone balances their excess

247
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: with um, you know, with the needs of like neighborhoods.

248
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: You know, can you build the library as opposed to

249
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:21,520
Speaker 1: get another jet or something for the you know, people

250
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: in your community who are lacking in something, whether it's

251
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: a grocery store like, it would be nice to see

252
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 1: it actually go into congregations and communities as well. Yeah,

253
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,200
Speaker 1: I means definitely does that. Yeah, that's what I mean.

254
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: So some people when when there are pastors who do that,

255
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,599
Speaker 1: then that's great because you're actually seeing you know, the

256
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: fruits dispersed and if they live well I mean it,

257
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: then you know it's okay. But I do think it

258
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,719
Speaker 1: can't be as long as it's not one sided. You

259
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 1: mentioned it seeing a trinity and her mom. And I

260
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: was thinking about that because because I think the question

261
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 1: was she said she kept going back to the Bible

262
00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 1: to pray for her marriage. You after how long? And

263
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 1: she basically like until until he died? Do you think

264
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: that the Bible cloud like our natural instincts and decision

265
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: making skills sometimes? I mean, you know, um, I think

266
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: it's yeah. I think it's you know, I think there's interpretations.

267
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: And if you if you do believe that marriage is

268
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: a covenant, then people are like, you do not break

269
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: that covenant because the covenant involves God. It's also like

270
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: you married God, right, and you married the church. I

271
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: mean it was such a big deal. I mean, I mean,

272
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: as we talk about it in the royal family because

273
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: you know the church and state. So it's you know,

274
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 1: it's complicated because what one person, because a belief is

275
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 1: your faith, right, So I mean it's hard to say

276
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: to someone that's not true if it's what you really believe,

277
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 1: Like do you believe that? Do you believe that? What that? What? Like?

278
00:14:55,960 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 1: Would you divorce under any well, under any circumstance, I

279
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: believe it for better or worse? But how worse? Like

280
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: how bad I mean right right, Yeah, yeah, they had

281
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: a pretty worse but I think she thought they could

282
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: pray that away. Yeah yeah, I thought it was over.

283
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 1: But and I feel like when you read the Bible,

284
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: like even God gets fed up at certain points. Yeah

285
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, no, I agree, I mean I agree.

286
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,520
Speaker 1: I just think it's like some people think about how

287
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: it looks on the outside. I just you know, it's

288
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: tough because and it depends on the generation. I think

289
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: a mother's generation definitely was like you don't divorce, you

290
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 1: do not divorce for you. How much pressure is it

291
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,600
Speaker 1: for you when you think about how people look at

292
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: you from the outside, Like how much you put out

293
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 1: there for people to know about you personally? I mean

294
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: I think I'm instinctively private, like it just it comes

295
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: natural to me. Um. But you know, I just grew

296
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: up in a different generation where you know, you did

297
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: you and nobody knew. I mean that's just that's all

298
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: that It just wasn't It's just how I lived. So

299
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: it's just how I am. But I mean I don't know,

300
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: I never really I don't know that I've had to

301
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 1: be forced to think about it. I Mean I've had

302
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 1: stuff that I will say this. I've had stuff that's

303
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: very wrong, you know, usually the right stuff people don't

304
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: know ro like there's like this thing. The only reason

305
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 1: I would I don't even address especially dating stuff. I

306
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: don't address it. But there's one that I would clear up.

307
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: And I only cleared up because it was untrue and

308
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: because it because he because it was untrue and he's

309
00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 1: not here. And that was like Chadwick Boseman and that

310
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: like I ran into him at Vanity Fair party and

311
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 1: people as soon be dated and his fiance was right

312
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: behind us and they got married and they're married, and

313
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: he was never inappropriate. And like only if it's someone

314
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: that if it's like there was something like and I

315
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: saw you and like because you're married, i've met your wife.

316
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 1: I always liked that to be clear, because I would

317
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:14,119
Speaker 1: never want a I would never if that happened to me.

318
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 1: Before crazy story is I was going it was me

319
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 1: and two friends and I was campaigning for Obama to

320
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,159
Speaker 1: become president in his first term. And there was a

321
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,400
Speaker 1: gentleman who was with us, like you know, a part

322
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,639
Speaker 1: of the Nevada Democratic thing, and he was great, and

323
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 1: we had to go to three places and then like

324
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: I didn't realize it and my feet were hurting, and

325
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: so I was like, can you get me some I'd

326
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 1: never campaigned, and he got me. He went around the

327
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,560
Speaker 1: corner and got like flip flops and he got three

328
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: pairs just because we were annoying. It was me and

329
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 1: Tanama our friendly and he was just like he didn't

330
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:51,879
Speaker 1: want to keep going back to the store, so he

331
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: got three pair for me, like they were five dollars each.

332
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, I said, you got three.

333
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,479
Speaker 1: He's like, they're five dollars each. And then I think

334
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: we went to a a party to campaign and I

335
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 1: was like, are you gonna dance? And he's like, I'll

336
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: dance when Obama wins. And then we went to a

337
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: church and we were talking about churches and he was

338
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 1: saying something about a church that he was like, ah,

339
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: that he what his issue was. And he was almost

340
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 1: a pastor at one time. And I was like, oh,

341
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 1: so were you celibate? And he looked at me and

342
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,959
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, my goodness, were you a fornicator?

343
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: And he said what does that even mean? And I said,

344
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 1: someone who has sex before marriage And he said, I

345
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,719
Speaker 1: know what that means. I said, well, I said I said, well,

346
00:18:35,760 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: what do they call men who had sex before marriage?

347
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: And he said men. We had a whole thing. But anyway,

348
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:48,439
Speaker 1: the two days before Obama, the day Obama was elected,

349
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: he had a heart attack and passed. But the week

350
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: before that he sent me and had sent me an

351
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 1: email emails. The email involved all of us that were there,

352
00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: but the email said, I wrote, thanks so much for

353
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 1: all of my expensive shoes, right and then and I said,

354
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 1: You'll always be my favorite fornicator. And then he wrote

355
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: back is the pot calling the kettle black? And then

356
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: and then and um, and he said something or I

357
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: said something like I think I said, you owe me

358
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: a dance because Obama was winning. Um. And his wife

359
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: found though, and he was a very faithful man. He

360
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: did not try There was nothing inappropriate his behavior. I

361
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: actually saw pictures of his wife. He told us. He

362
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 1: was like, if he doesn't win this election, my wife

363
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 1: is gonna kill me. It was and um, is that

364
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: why he had a heart attack? And she didn't know.

365
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: We just he was just he had a heart attack. Drive. Yeah,

366
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 1: he just was driving to pick up and his wife

367
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: found that. And I never um, I mean we did

368
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 1: talk to her, but just I just think sometimes for women,

369
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: I just always want them to know that, like, you know,

370
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 1: that's not yeah, and that's not even me. But it

371
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: wasn't her man. You know, it's not even the man.

372
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: Get down. If I see you, you know, I want

373
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,359
Speaker 1: him to be like, you know, like he didn't try me.

374
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 1: He was he didn't try anything, and like we were talking.

375
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 1: So only in those situations when I'm like, and there's

376
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,120
Speaker 1: a spouse, because I just think as a wife, it's

377
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: not I could see how that email though it's a

378
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,160
Speaker 1: very specific EMA. Yeah, that one is like I don't

379
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: even know how you explain that one. And it was

380
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,200
Speaker 1: and I and my boyfriend at the time, I was like,

381
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: what should I do? And he's like, she's upset, she's

382
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: found the emails. You gotta let it just wait. But

383
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: I did tell her and and it was an email chain,

384
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: and I think so now I rope back and was like, oh, no,

385
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 1: it was a joke. But of course you're gonna say

386
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 1: it's a joke. And she probably was hurting already, so

387
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 1: that's just and she thinks. So that's why I'm always

388
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,320
Speaker 1: conscious for you know, you know, people in relationships. I

389
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: never heard the one with you and ja, I don't hear.

390
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: You don't hear nothing about you, like you clean out here.

391
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: Well that's nice. Yeah, got to create something, Yeah, don't.

392
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: I don't think they want I know, I know, but

393
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: when there's something wonderful to share, I will. What realization

394
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: I can't talk about what we were all talking about,

395
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,239
Speaker 1: the we were realizations. You think Trinity came to at

396
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 1: the end of the movie. I just think she realized

397
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 1: that she's just doing She's got to stand up and

398
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 1: have some boundaries for herself. I think there was something

399
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: about the end when he was like, they're here for me.

400
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: I think she realized her husband was like selfish, like

401
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: not that she didn't, but she just saw like he

402
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: this he has not seen anything that I've done. Yeah, right,

403
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: did you feel like that? Because I felt like even

404
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: when you were critiquing it and like do it again,

405
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 1: know that I was on we didn't feel that. I

406
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: was like that is you know, just the fact that

407
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: your whole life really did revolve around him. Yeah, and

408
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: that church and then you see the other couple and

409
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: they're up there preaching together, right, and there's such a

410
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: disparity between the relationship that you guys had in the

411
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 1: relationship that they have where they were really like equals,

412
00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: you know, finishing each other's sentences, supporting each other, both

413
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: up there together as a couple. And then you see,

414
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 1: you guys, even though I know they opened that church,

415
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 1: that they did it on it, that was like I

416
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: didn't believe him at all. Yeah, I don't believe him. No.

417
00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 1: I think that is a thing too. It's also like

418
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: that generation of like like we can co past her together.

419
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be for a lady. I think

420
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: for Trinity, she just you know, everybody has roles in relationships,

421
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: right at some point. I just think sometimes I think

422
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 1: when when she was out there on the street miming,

423
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: she realized that her role her role, Yeah, her role

424
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: was more reduced every day, and like she didn't think

425
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 1: that it would get there. Did she step out? Also? See,

426
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 1: that's where I thought it was going. And there was

427
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,400
Speaker 1: a point where it felt like did she step out

428
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: to she know? Okay? I was confused about that because

429
00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:57,959
Speaker 1: it felt like they alluded to it at mom. That's

430
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: what I thought too, because in my mind, I was like,

431
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 1: ain't not gonna do that. That would be too predictable,

432
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: right if it was just him. I mean the twist

433
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 1: was good. Yeah, I just thought of him with some women.

434
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: But it's just like like she must have stepped that

435
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 1: might be her. Yeah, I thought it was going. No, No,

436
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,399
Speaker 1: she didn't stop out. She No, she was she she

437
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 1: really loved him, you know, she does love him. She

438
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: just's just he just has no attraction to I could

439
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: not understand that. I literally said that to myself like

440
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: five or six times. Are you doing? He's like nobody's doing.

441
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 1: And I have to say, Sterling was sterling. He's so

442
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: much fun and he's so funny, like totally just came

443
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 1: and like embodied that character you know, on that on

444
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: the page, and like during the actual filming of the scene,

445
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: we were both like this. He was like this is terrible.

446
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: You know, he felt bad that he had to do

447
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 1: it as a character. Um, but yeah, I think, you know,

448
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 1: I think they have a complicated relationship. What would you

449
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: say at Trinity's flaws? Because we can see his yeah

450
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: up close, and I can tell you what I think,

451
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,600
Speaker 1: But what would you say in her flaws? Are like

452
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: what did you Yeah, well that in Trinity likes the

453
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,120
Speaker 1: lifestyle too, I mean just as much as he does.

454
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 1: And she really. You know, she likes all the attention

455
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 1: of being on the stage and with people, you know,

456
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: like that one sermon where he's saying he's got the

457
00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: what is it, the beautiful wife and the gorgeous Borghatti, Like,

458
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: she definitely she likes it. The car. She's she's not

459
00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 1: giving that up too. So I think anytime you're like

460
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 1: attached to that material world to that degree, you will

461
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: sacrifice something. Have you ever stayed in a relationship for

462
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 1: moral reasons? Hmm, No, that's a good question. I'm trying

463
00:24:53,560 --> 00:25:00,399
Speaker 1: to think if I had I don't think so. I

464
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: think I really think that's something regulated to just religious people. Yeah,

465
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 1: I really do, But you know I haven't. I think

466
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 1: if I think, like if I were married and had kids,

467
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: I would it would that would make a ninety percent difference, Yeah,

468
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,199
Speaker 1: because I would want my children with their father, right,

469
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: So I would. I would probably, I would probably, you know,

470
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 1: work through a lot. I think if I had children,

471
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: wouldn't you I would think so because it's not just

472
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,119
Speaker 1: that too. I think the support system. Yeah, sometimes you

473
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: don't know how that dynamic will change if you're not

474
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: in the same household, and I would affect them. Yeah,

475
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: hold up to his responsibilities for time, women, financially and Kenny,

476
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: because now you might you know, because now it's like

477
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: it's two households and the kids, whereas if you're pulling together.

478
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: So it's just you're just thinking about something so much

479
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: bigger than yourself. I want my kids around to other women, right,

480
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 1: you have to think of like stuff like you have

481
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,840
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of things you have to consider,

482
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: and like yeah, and like you know, maybe where they're

483
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: gonna have to go to school or you're moving, you

484
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's just a lot. So I

485
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: spend holidays, right, how do you split that up? Yeah?

486
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:08,600
Speaker 1: But environment and energy matter too though, So you don't

487
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 1: want your kids in household? That's I know, that's a.

488
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 1: That's that's a that's a that's good. Sometimes people feel

489
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 1: like we don't argue in front of the kids. They

490
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: have no idea, but they don't know that their kids

491
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,600
Speaker 1: feel it. Right. Yeah, I know plenty like that too.

492
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: I have friends were like, I wish my parents would

493
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: have gotten divorced. I just think it's I just think

494
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: it depends, but I would I still know instinctively, I

495
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: would probably try really hard if I had kids so,

496
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 1: so in what ways do you relate to trinity? Well,

497
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: you know that, I mean, I think that's not to

498
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 1: say I have not been in relationships and tried, like

499
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 1: you know, I think, what, what's that quote? Women stay

500
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,600
Speaker 1: too long, men leave too soon? I mean, I've definitely

501
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: I never heard it, but it sounds it sounds good, right,

502
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,119
Speaker 1: I've definitely I've definitely stayed and tried to work through

503
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 1: stuff that in retrospect, I'm like, well, that was the

504
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 1: first sign right there. Yeah, you should have known it

505
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: wasn't gonna work. But and so I understood that. I

506
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: understood that connection to um, to faith and like really

507
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: believing something, wanting or wanting to believe something, and just

508
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 1: that connection to to being strong. But I really, honestly,

509
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: it was the understanding of the first ladies that I

510
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,479
Speaker 1: studied that resonated with me the most. Was there anything

511
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 1: that you anything new you learned about religion and maybe

512
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 1: your own faith by doing this? Hil my own? Well,

513
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,920
Speaker 1: you know, I always believe the church is human. Wherever

514
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: there's human people, there's rooms for growth. So I already

515
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:56,520
Speaker 1: believe that. But um, I mean there is a beauty too,

516
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 1: that there is a beauty in the church too. You know,

517
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 1: both exists, right, Like every coin has a flip side.

518
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: We shot a lot in that church and it's a

519
00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 1: beautiful church, yeah, you know, and so it's you know,

520
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: it's complicated there. You do feel something, you know what

521
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: I mean, even people that came up, like you really

522
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: changed my life going yeah, and you know when we

523
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 1: were on the side of the road, those hanks were real,

524
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 1: like they didn't realize it was us. They didn't realize

525
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:27,680
Speaker 1: it was us. Yeah, And you couldn't see the camera

526
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 1: crew because they were in the back or across the street.

527
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 1: So those hanks were real. So you know, you connect,

528
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: especially in this time and on the world right with

529
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: everything going on, you want to believe in something. So

530
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: you understood it, and there was a there was a

531
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: really quiet beauty to that church in the ground. So

532
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that just that always stays with me.

533
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: How you feel about cussing on them grounds? How did

534
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 1: that make you feel? I know, she lost it, you

535
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's interesting though, because it felt

536
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 1: like it felt like a pilot, because it feels like

537
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 1: it's so much more to explore with those characters. Like

538
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: when it was over, I was like, no, he can't

539
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: in like this, I need to see more. No, it

540
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: was so sudden. I was like, yeah, it just yeah, yeah, yeah.

541
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: I mean I think the idea they wanted to leave

542
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: with the things definitely won't be the same, right, I mean,

543
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: I think we saw that Heaven's House was really crowded.

544
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:27,880
Speaker 1: We had the devout five five people here. Yeah. You know.

545
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: There was a tweet that said the only unrealized thing

546
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: about the movie was the congregation leaving after the scandal,

547
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: because they were like the congregation, Yeah, congregate, do they

548
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 1: not leave? They'll have their well, you know. I think

549
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: also part of it was that you guys were closed, yeah, yeah,

550
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,120
Speaker 1: and then they were buying someplace else to go. And

551
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 1: when you close like that and having like rate somewhere else,

552
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: now you've they found a new church Trump because we'd

553
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: been closed for a year because he was being he

554
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: was under investigation, right, so what are they supposed to

555
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 1: do for a year? Yeah, they went on over the

556
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 1: Heaven's House. Now, how do you feel with this being

557
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,920
Speaker 1: like one of your first projects from behind the cameras

558
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 1: as well as you know, being in front of it,

559
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: But do you do you just feel like amazing about

560
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 1: the reception that it is guiding. I mean, it's gotten

561
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: amazing reviews. I mean, yeah, you know you're I mean,

562
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 1: I'm always excited when the project is received well period.

563
00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 1: I mean that's just the you know, that's like just

564
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: the honest part of me. You know, nobody wants to

565
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: read something that's like it was garbage, although there are

566
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: people who feel that way, right, So you know they're

567
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 1: gonna be people who aren't gonna like it, and people

568
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: are gonna like it. That's just part of life. But yeah,

569
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,760
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's it's just nice when you take

570
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,920
Speaker 1: a risk, right because it's a risky subject matter, it's

571
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 1: a risky project to do, um and and there's just

572
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: a group of people like, well, like you guys that

573
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,520
Speaker 1: like it, you know what I mean that that that

574
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: makes a big difference. Um. So I was excited, you know,

575
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: like I was excited that even when just Sterling said,

576
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: but I was really excited. When it's old. I was

577
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: so scared. I was like, if we got these girls,

578
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: they don't raise all this money. If they don't, what

579
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: if what they're like, we're not buying it. So when

580
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 1: it's sold, I was happy, and so the support is like,

581
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: that's just like amazing. I actually won't see more. I

582
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: think you should be a serious do you think absolutely?

583
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 1: They got to try to come back with more than

584
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,520
Speaker 1: just a little Aria. That was probably one of my

585
00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: favorite things Little Aria when she says, I love the theater.

586
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 1: Would you do a serious if the opportunity presented itself

587
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 1: for this? I mean, you know, um, I'm doing another series,

588
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,000
Speaker 1: So I missed my old series. To be honest, I

589
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: missed my Black Monday because I loved my cast so much.

590
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 1: I loved my cast. But like I think the girls

591
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: have talked them and Dona, they talked about doing it

592
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: as an adult. I know it sounds weird animation series. Okay,

593
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 1: I can see that. Yeah, because then they could take

594
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: it places. Got why didn't Why didn't you? Just Black

595
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 1: Monday was on show Time, right? Why why didn't it

596
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: bring that back? I guess enough people weren't watching it. Yeah,

597
00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: I think they're watching it now though. It's so funny.

598
00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 1: Now I have many people who are like, I love this,

599
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: they'd like discover it later. Yeah, that happens. There's a

600
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: lot of content out there too. It's a lot of content.

601
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 1: It feel like there was a black goal rush, like

602
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: around the COVID and George Floyd thing, and then it

603
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: feels like they feels like they kind of shut it

604
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: off a little. Yeah. Really, there's so much content. I've

605
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 1: been discovering things now that like I've been watching this

606
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: show flappersh Misdemeanors on Showtime. Oh yeah, so good that

607
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 1: I watched the whole entire thing, like in two days.

608
00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: It was so good. And see that's another hard thing too,

609
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: it is with their spending so much content, Like people

610
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: discover it in its second and third season, they don't

611
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 1: necessarily catch it in the first season unless you're gonna

612
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: put like tons of money into advertising. I feel like

613
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: you have a lot coming out at the same time

614
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: right now too. Yeah, yeah, that's yeah, it's totally accidental

615
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,120
Speaker 1: to the time of it because Metime came out and

616
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: it just was like not even you know who knew.

617
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 1: That happens a lot and people are like, oh, you're

618
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: always working, but sometimes it's just the timing of release.

619
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,960
Speaker 1: So what's next for our Age production our Age Negative?

620
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: Oh we have um um. I can't even talk about it,

621
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: to be honest, but I have three things in development

622
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: at Showtime and then UM a film that we're shopping

623
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: right now hopefully, UM someone it's another it's another unique one,

624
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: but I'm very excited about that one. And um where

625
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 1: we just like sent it out. We've had a couple

626
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: of passes, to be honest, but because it's going to

627
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 1: be it's an it's a it's a risky it's a

628
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:44,200
Speaker 1: risky one, but it's also really good. I think, I

629
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: think it's really good. That's always good when you take

630
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 1: those risks and they pay off. I mean, yeah, if

631
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: you know, the great thing about stuff like this is

632
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,400
Speaker 1: you can either go the studio route or you know,

633
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: you can do like the Girls and you can go

634
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: and do the independent route, or you can go streaming

635
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But the the other projects are

636
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 1: um television shows. Yeah, I'm highly disappointed that you were

637
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: in sterling. Kate Brown had to learn the words to

638
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 1: the neck if you want, not learned the words? We

639
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 1: never heard it. I mean, nuck if you buck is

640
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: really a big song. That's what I'm saying, is a

641
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 1: Negro spirit. That's what I found out. You didn't know

642
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: that you're from DC, but I was in LA by then.

643
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 1: It didn't I don't know it was it. This is

644
00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: this is literally like a black Yes, that's why I

645
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: didn't here. This is a Negro spiritual like, this is

646
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,520

Speaker 1: ran somewhere. I know it was. It was over. I

657
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 1: think it stopped for me in my twenties. You know why,

674
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: crazy how that works? How long did it take you

675
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: to learn the song? Like my little verse, like two,

676
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,000
Speaker 1: two or three days? Okay? Yeah, and you sang the

677

Speaker 1: so we Yeah. So I tried to Yeah, how much

685
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,040

696
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 1: can't help it. It's like I have to grab some ball.

697
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,120

709
00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 1: and be on a panel with Regina Hall. I was like,

710
00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 1: what a way to celebrate. Yeah, that was pretty excited.

711

Speaker 1: Everyone's excited too, and everyone loves your show. I mean

712
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: it's it's so it's an exciting time for people to have, like, um,

713
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:37,719
Speaker 1: the balls to do yeah, the ball right, and the

714
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: opportunity to do like more, you know what I mean,

715
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,880
Speaker 1: just more. Do you feel like like black people in

716
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:54,120
Speaker 1: this business of finally getting their just do Hmmm? I

717
00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: think there's more opportunity, right, And I think I think

718
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,240
Speaker 1: as we are are adding voice is behind the camera,

719
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:05,320
Speaker 1: whether it's producing or writing, you know, it's it's getting

720
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 1: it's getting the reality the like like real voices that

721
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 1: we don't see. I think what happens is we used

722
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:14,359
Speaker 1: we end up seeing the one like if one thing

723
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: is a success, we see five ten versions of that

724
00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,839
Speaker 1: and then it feels like it doesn't It doesn't. It's

725
00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 1: not a complete right version of the reality of of

726
00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 1: of a of a of a people of a race.

727
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:32,320
Speaker 1: And and so it's been hard to show the spectrum

728
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: of that. But I think now, um, it is getting better.

729
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: You know, I don't think we should say we're getting

730
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:43,320
Speaker 1: it's it's emotion. And I think before it wasn't necessarily emotion,

731
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 1: but I think it's emotion. You think Wolton has ruined

732
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: uh creativity? Um, I think I still need to know

733
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,880
Speaker 1: what the word means. I'm like, what does it really mean?

734
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:58,800
Speaker 1: People don't use it anymore. It did, right, it was

735
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 1: supposed to mean like you were like aware. I guess

736
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,480
Speaker 1: yeah for me, I guess it's like you always have

737
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 1: to have to have some bigger message in your art,

738
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:14,120
Speaker 1: right yeah, Oh okay, Well you know sometimes shit is

739
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,399
Speaker 1: just entertaining, right, you know, And I think that's great too.

740
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, just yeah, it's a spectrum. So yeah,

741
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,879
Speaker 1: I guess it's it's you know, yeah, it's many things.

742
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 1: It's many That's why that's why so many people need

743
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 1: to be doing stuff, because everybody has like, what you're

744
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:34,160
Speaker 1: gonna do is different than than me or or you know,

745
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: and or anyone. It's and and it's like, but we

746
00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: need that perspective too, right, So everyone who has a

747
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 1: perspective that at least is like I don't know, you

748
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:49,279
Speaker 1: can tell that they've it's been they've contemplated on things,

749
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: or experience things, you know, or have things that they

750
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,520
Speaker 1: feel compelled to share. I mean it's always nice, you know,

751
00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: because sometimes I enjoy watching to be Yeah. Yeah, so

752
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 1: those movies. Yeah, that's the thing. Sometimes it's like it's just,

753
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 1: you know, I just want to be entertained. I don't

754
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 1: want a thing. I want to laugh. I don't want

755
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 1: to always have, you know, messaging. So I think it's

756
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 1: you know, you need both. I want a documentary or
