1
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 1: It's time for Donkey of the Day. I'm a Democrat,

2
00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 1: so being Dunky of the day a little bit of

3
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 1: a mix, so like a Donkey o the day club bitches.

4
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: Now I've been called a lot of my twenty three

5
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: years that Donkey of the day is a new wife. Hey,

6
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,079
Speaker 1: donkey of today, first one for twenty twenty three. Okay,

7
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: Donkey to day for Monday, January, Knife goes to the

8
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: Pitchburgh Steelers. Now I've been disconnected from the Internet because

9
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: I've been busy just living life, all right, But this morning,

10
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: my producers put me onto the fact that it's been

11
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: some online outrage over the Steelers players celebrating a sack

12
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:48,279
Speaker 1: with their traditional CPR simulation. Have you seen this NB? Yeah,

13
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 1: people are upset because days after the incident that happened

14
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: to Damar Hamlet, they still was doing this celebration. Now,

15
00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: I'm highly aware of how overly sensitive people Okay, I'm

16
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: highly aware of how overly sensitive people are nowadays. Okay,

17
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: it's folks right now waking up, turning on the radio,

18
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: going on social media, waiting to be triggered by something. Okay,

19
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: it's there a whole reason for breathing all right, and

20
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,399
Speaker 1: those types of people with that type of energy. We

21
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: can't give oxygen two in twenty twenty three because a

22
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: lot of it is just noise. All right, it's a distraction.

23
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: But this right here, I think it's worth a conversation,

24
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 1: and I do want to use this opportunity to teach

25
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: and encourage everyone to do something that we don't do

26
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,759
Speaker 1: a lot of nowadays. And let's read the room. Okay.

27
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 1: I have a theory about room reading that I will

28
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: be exploring in my new book. Yes, book three is

29
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: on the way. But the theory is, folks can't read

30
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 1: the room because there's too many rooms. All right, It's

31
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: too many people talking, it's too much noise, and a

32
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: lot of people are thinking for themselves. Okay, they literally

33
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 1: are getting on social media and waiting to see, you know,

34
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: how to feel about things. So the room reading isn't

35
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: really happening because it's too many rooms to read in

36
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 1: this situation right here is one where everyone in the

37
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers organization hasn't read any room. Okay, Now, I

38
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: understand the Stealers do this celebration all the time. I

39
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: get it. But as soon as folks saw what happened

40
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: with the mar Hamlin last week. Someone should have said, hey, hey,

41
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: the CPR celebration cut that next that eliminated, okay, suspended

42
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: until next season, all right. You had to know in

43
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: this hypersensitive era where folks are looking to be triggered,

44
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: that wasn't going to go over well. And what kills

45
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: me about these types of situation is that there's too

46
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: many people involved. So you're telling me that nobody, not

47
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: one person in the organization said look, let's not do

48
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: the CPR simulation celebration for the rest of the season

49
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 1: and light of the circumstances. Okay, this is the same

50
00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: thing which Skip Bayless. It's not that what Skip said

51
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 1: was insensitive. It was poor timing, because yes, at some

52
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: point folks was going to have to discuss what happens

53
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: with this game, okay, the Bills Bengals game, but not

54
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: right now? All right, This CPR celebration is fine any

55
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 1: other time, but not right now. Okay. And in twenty

56
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: twenty three, what I want us to practice, you know,

57
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: it's not just reading the room, but can we just

58
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: have more awareness of others? All right? It doesn't matter

59
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 1: what you do all the time. It doesn't matter how

60
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: you do things. Okay, every day, at certain points we

61
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 1: have to adjust, all right. We have to learn to pivot,

62
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 1: all right, especially when it comes to other people. All right.

63
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: And that's the problem. Folks only want to be fluid,

64
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 1: it seems like in twenty twenty three when it comes

65
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,240
Speaker 1: to sexuality. All right, we have to be fluid with everything,

66
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: all right. Be like water. We have to be formless. Okay.

67
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: We shouldn't allow ourselves to be trapped in any certain mindset.

68
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: A person should be able to adapt the certain situations. Okay,

69
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,120
Speaker 1: you gotta grow, you gotta change. That's how you adopt

70
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: the qualities of water. In fact that Bruce Lee can

71
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: explain it better than me. Listen, and your mind be formless,

72
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: shapeless like world. Now you put water into a cup,

73
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle,

74
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: it becomes the bottle you're putting at thought, it could

75
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: come used the team carter. The water can flow, how

76
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: it can crash? The water my friend two twenty three

77
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: learned to be water, My friends, be formless. Just because

78
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,840
Speaker 1: you've been doing something a certain way doesn't mean you

79
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 1: have to always do it a certain way. Please give

80
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Stealers the biggest. He all, No, am I

81
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: off with this and be what do you think? Nah,

82
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think they were mocking the situation.

83
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,480
Speaker 1: But it was. It was tone deaf, it was classless.

84
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: It was stupid to see. Yeah, I know they weren't

85
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: mocking it. I know they weren't making it very dumb.

86
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: I don't even think. I wouldn't even call the classless.

87
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 1: I just think that they're used to doing it all

88
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: the time. Yeah, but like you said, it just happened.

89
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: That's right. We're all saying three. We have the number

90
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: three on our jerseys, number three on our T shirts,

91
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: and then you do that. It's just stupid and silly.

92
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta read the room and you have

93
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 1: to be like water. Just come up with another celebration,

94
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 1: you know, for the rest of the season and lighten

95
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 1: the circumstances. Now what are we gonna talk about? Now?

96
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: You're gonna talk about your those job or something else.

97
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: I don't have a nose jam. You got an those

98
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,039
Speaker 1: job over the holiday job? Wondering why he sounds you

99
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 1: know like Michael Jackson, Almo. Almo was really happy to

100
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: see you it's all right, no Elmo Jackson. If you're

101
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: wondering why MBA sounds like Elmo Jackson is because you

102
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 1: got a job. I didn't get a those job. I

103
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: had polyps in my nose. My wife said I was

104
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: snoring a lot. I went to the doctors. I was

105
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,039
Speaker 1: scared that I would have sleep apnea or something like that.

106
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 1: They said I had polypsic thought it was gonna be

107
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: a twenty minute procedure. Wound up being a two hour

108
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: procedure where they took all the polyps out and now

109
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 1: I could smell Alaska from here, I can breathe a

110
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: lot of not named cold. You did it good, too, though,

111
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,920
Speaker 1: because you waited during the holiday break. You knew we

112
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: had four weeks off. That's why a lot of people

113
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: don't do you know. I mean a lot of people

114
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: like to get bbls in the middle. Didn't hear when

115
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 1: they still got to be at work. It was not

116
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: that type of surgery. And they didn't touch my nose

117
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: like that. They went inside and here, No, I didn't

118
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,600
Speaker 1: get any there's nothing shaved off. And I couldn't travel

119
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: because you can't travel with it. You can't be around

120
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: places with a smoke, whether it's hookla, cigarettes or weed.

121
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,480
Speaker 1: So I couldn't be in a club. So I was

122
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: home for the last three weeks. And they say, you're

123
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: probably healing into goodness. All right, but anyway, let's open

124
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: up the phone lines eight five, eight five one oh

125
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: five one. We're talking about Gabrielle Union. She's talking about

126
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: her previous relationship to former NFL player Chris Howard. And

127
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: this is what she said. I was keeping up with

128
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: his activities. Oh that's what you're doing. Oh you're going

129
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 1: to feel this one. And I just felt entitled to

130
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: it as well. I was paying all the bills. I

131
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,760
Speaker 1: was working my ass off, and I felt like that's

132
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: what comes the spoils of riches, and like my dad

133
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: before me, whoever has the most gets to do whatever

134
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: the hell they want, is what I yes, yes, yes,

135
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: And it was just dysfunctional from day one. Yeah, So

136
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 1: we're asking eight five five one five one, if you

137
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,559
Speaker 1: pay the bills in a relationship, can you do whatever

138
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,559
Speaker 1: the f you want? Do? We start talking about toxic

139
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: femininity in two twenty three. I'm tired of women acting

140
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,119
Speaker 1: like they don't think just like men do. My god,

141
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: eight hundred five eight five one oh five one. Is

142
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 1: there any truth to this? If you pay the bills

143
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: in a relationship, can you do what you want to do?

144
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 1: Is it your your place? You can say whatever you

145
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 1: want to say, you can do whatever you want to do.

146
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: You can buy whatever you want to buy. It's your decision.

147
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: Let's talk about it all. We're about to hear from

148
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: a bunch of people in toxic relationships, because the ain't

149
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: no healthy relationship functioning like this. But we'll discuss. It's

150
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: the breakfast club come morning. The breakfast club
