Let's let's start with 0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:07.040 the first of all. El Copple, El copol Copple. You 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:12.200 got me nervous, damn bad. He thought I was going somewhere. 0:09:12.200 --> 0:09:17.320 I was going nervous up here. The album is out. 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:19.960 The album is is one of the dopest albums I've heard. 0:09:20.120 --> 0:09:22.839 Oh year long, Thank you, thank you very much. I 0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.560 appreciate that that sounds very dope coming for you, my brother. Now, 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:28.400 when I was talking to you, were saying that, you know, 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.360 the album kind of surprised you because so many people 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:32.079 were hitting you like, yo, this is probably the best 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.640 album I heard in years. Yes, I've been getting numerous 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.040 amounts of calls from both people that I'm cool with 0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:40.559 it and people that I wouldn't think would call me 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.160 to congratulate me on anything, and it kind of took 0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:45.199 me for a surprise. But for the most part, it's 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:47.960 been like real substantial people from the industry, like even 0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:51.199 people that run labels and stuff like that, like the 0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:54.000 presidents and stuff. So it's just been like surprising of 0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:56.559 how many people really been giving me my kudos for 0:09:56.679 --> 0:09:59.520 this album and things like that. That hasn't been a 0:10:00.320 --> 0:10:02.520 a record exact called me for a big major deal 0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:04.319 yet though, but they tell me I'll have one of 0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:06.240 the best albums they heard in a while. So hopefully 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:07.959 that are turned into one of them calling me to 0:10:08.400 --> 0:10:09.840 do some business with me and we could do an 0:10:09.880 --> 0:10:12.640 even dope album coming up money because most people don't 0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:14.640 want everybody's talking about, oh, I don't need a major 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:17.920 label deal and I'm independent and you're also an executive. 0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:21.400 It's tricky. I mean at some point you, at some 0:10:21.559 --> 0:10:24.280 point when you're dealing with this industry, you should get 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:27.520 involved with a major label. Was a lot of different 0:10:27.520 --> 0:10:30.320 reasons for it doesn't mean that they take in your identity, 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:33.319 your creativity, taking your independence from you. That all depends 0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:35.320 on how you set up your deal. But I mean, 0:10:35.720 --> 0:10:39.040 for an independent standpoint, from these young artists, they kind 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.720 of found a loophole for making money. So once they 0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:44.240 found that loophole, which was called streams, and they've been 0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:45.920 able to make their own money, they kind of got 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.840 to their head because they really don't need a label 0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:50.959 if you think of it like that. But if you 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:53.640 have the eight picks of your game doing independent numbers, 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:55.040 and then you can go to a label and they 0:10:55.080 --> 0:10:57.240 can give you sixty to ten million dollars and you 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:59.520 can structure your deal where they're just a partner and 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:02.240 they don't own they don't own you outright, and you 0:11:02.280 --> 0:11:04.200 could do it like it's definitely worth it. I'm going 0:11:04.280 --> 0:11:06.560 to get the ten million dollar bag one hundred percent. Now. 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:09.079 Question we reported this is this two or falce. You 0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:11.280 guys are going back on love and hip hop? Um, 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:13.520 Chrissy is going back on Love and Hip Hop. Shout 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:16.720 the Chris baby girl on. That's amazing that she will 0:11:16.800 --> 0:11:18.880 be on Love and Hip Hop. I told him I'll 0:11:19.080 --> 0:11:21.599 jump on a couple of episodes. That's like where it 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:25.040 all started. That, yes, it's very interesting. But you know, 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.280 she she did great business with him owner. They came 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:29.319 to a hell of an agreement, which it kind of 0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:31.599 made me smile. How she did her business and it 0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:33.199 was kind of dope. I had nothing to do with it. 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:34.800 I made sure I stayed out of it because I'm 0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:37.400 more emotionally tied to it than anything else. And you know, 0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:39.360 she was able to separate the two the motion in 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:41.280 the business and she got a dope as deal done. 0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:43.400 So you know, look forward to her on a Love 0:11:43.440 --> 0:11:46.920 and Hip hop. You have a lot of businesses. You have, 0:11:47.000 --> 0:11:51.040 of course, part older of saucy shows man Alex todd Up, 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:53.360 we're just here. He's here now. Alex is a is 0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:55.199 a very dope dude in this industry. You know he 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:57.560 started with Drury. But to be involved in this uh 0:11:57.640 --> 0:11:59.520 We've business was one of the best things that could 0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:01.679 have happened to me and in my career right now, 0:12:01.800 --> 0:12:03.840 like I mean, the wee game is the whole next 0:12:03.920 --> 0:12:05.800 level of what's going on when it comes to making money. 0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:08.160 It should Tommy of real estate, like, it's it's no 0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:10.880 going back. It's just green on green, Green make screen, 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:13.640 Green make screen. Yes, you pought owner of a football team. 0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:15.839 You do a lot of stuff out there that that 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:18.240 brings it a lot of money. So when we reported 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:19.880 a story, we see the story that popped out that 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:23.840 said they foreclosed on Jim Jones's home. Yes, so I said, 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:26.240 if if they foreclosed on the home, there's a reason 0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:28.640 for it. I said it property isn't worth them keeping it. 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:30.520 That's what I said. I was like, well, it might 0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:32.640 be that they owe more than what the house is worth. 0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:34.320 So you just let it. Get four clothes done. Because 0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:37.120 we've seen that happen. But you explain to us, Explain 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.959 to you what like what happened with that story. It's 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:43.160 a property, man, We got a few properties. I mean what, 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:48.760 I'm homeless now I'm living. I'm living in the shelter 0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:53.520 for rich people. It's called a mini mansion. You're I'm 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:56.679 cool anything, I'm homeless and I'm broke. That's what the 0:12:56.679 --> 0:12:58.520 people need to know. That's what they need to know 0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:00.640 you heard. That's what they need do, not his life. Man. 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:02.400 You know, you make you make consciant decisions when it 0:13:02.440 --> 0:13:04.520 comes to doing certain things, and I guess said. The 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:06.920 decision that I made with that was I didn't really 0:13:07.200 --> 0:13:08.800 it wasn't really worth it at the end of the day, 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:10.920 and it's not really a big deal. But you're dealing 0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:14.000 with the media. They blow everything up tenfold. Nobody has 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:16.839 common sense anymore like that. They make it seem like 0:13:16.920 --> 0:13:20.000 they said, oh, Jim Jones and his family were in 0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:22.600 the shelter, they looking bad. And I hit that part. 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:25.520 That's what that's what the media paces to be. They 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:27.240 blow everything out of him. You say one little thing 0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:28.760 in the media and then it goes out of control. 0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:30.600 But now it's cool. I love it, man, Shout out 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:32.360 the Jersey. I'm a new Jersey and you know you're 0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:34.320 having fun out that, all right? We got more coming 0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:37.600 up next with a breakfast club. Rudolf the red nose 0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:44.320 out of every side, you know, and if you ever 0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:50.680 saw him, you wouldn't say cool. Breakfast club is also, 0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:53.240 what's your relationship with fifty? Said? Somebody asked me the 0:13:53.280 --> 0:13:54.680 other day, was like, Yo, what's so with fifty times, 0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:57.120 I'm like they just playing what's what you? And fifty 0:13:57.640 --> 0:14:01.280 one jo a little too much? This is real or not? 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:04.400 I wish I could be in a position to really 0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:08.280 say what I want to say, but unfortunately my life 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:11.200 has been hectic and it's you know what I mean. 0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:14.000 But where I'm from, I do know people that will 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:16.640 be called real is a stand up man. You don't 0:14:16.679 --> 0:14:21.160 try to tarnish other people's name by doing bullshitantic there's 0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:23.880 consequences and repercussions for certain things like that, you know 0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:26.480 what I mean, Like from where I'm from, So I'll 0:14:26.560 --> 0:14:29.080 leave it at that. But for the most part, everybody 0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:30.800 know my life is real. I've been doing this but 0:14:30.880 --> 0:14:33.040 way too long for anybody to play with me and 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:36.480 like that. But you know, some people think life is 0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:37.920 a game, so we leave it like that. You know, 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:40.160 when you slop box, sometimes it gets out of hand, right. 0:14:40.640 --> 0:14:42.760 It starts off with slop boxing, but then a lot 0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:45.680 of the times it turns into a real fight. That's 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:47.400 how it is. You know what I'm saying. It could playful, 0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:50.680 but I do want to say I missed my brother. 0:14:50.760 --> 0:14:52.640 Mel Murder shouts to Mel Murder, keep your head on 0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:55.360 then I love you to death. Now, it seems like 0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:57.920 every time Jim tries to get himself out and you 0:14:58.040 --> 0:14:59.520 try to put on a shirt and tie and do 0:14:59.640 --> 0:15:01.120 the right the thing could be positive, they try to 0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:05.120 pull you back. I mean, this happens with natural progression 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:08.120 you do, You're never gonna get a clear shot at 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:09.440 what you want to do. If you don't go through 0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:13.400 obstacles and and hop over fences and brick walls and 0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:15.520 things like that, you're never gonna get to where you 0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:18.280 gotta go. You gotta expect that they threw stones at 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:21.400 Jesus when he was already on a cross show. Maybe 0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:23.880 with six NINEE. It seemed like you never were feeling 0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:26.440 six nine from the door. I have no comment on 0:15:26.520 --> 0:15:29.600 none of that. Now, has the police messed with you 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:32.200 because of that and what he said? Anything like that? 0:15:32.280 --> 0:15:34.240 I have a new comment on none of that. So 0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:36.960 are you're good and clear? I have no comment on 0:15:37.080 --> 0:15:40.720 none of that. It might be an ongoing situations. Good, 0:15:40.760 --> 0:15:45.320 that's all. So what's what's next for Jim Joe? I'm 0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:48.400 actually about to drop a new project um already. Yeah, 0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:51.200 I don't think people feeling me feeling me enough, So 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:54.680 I called Ghazzi last week. Gazzi he owns an empire. 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:56.560 Now I told him he need to do a fourth 0:15:56.640 --> 0:15:59.080 call of Blitz. I don't think people feeling my energy enough, 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:02.520 so they got the term you gotta keep their foot, 0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:04.200 keep your foot on their neck. And that's what I'm 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:06.800 trying to do to keep applying pressure. So I'm about 0:16:06.800 --> 0:16:08.960 to lock in the studio for like thirty days and 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.120 do a strong term Records, UM, trying to release it 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:15.760 the first or second week of December. UM. If I 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:18.040 don't get everything together the way I wanted, I definitely 0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:20.160 would put out a record in a video and things 0:16:20.240 --> 0:16:23.520 like that. But I got some sizzle. I'm ready. I've 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:25.960 been I've been likely in the booth, spawn with myself 0:16:26.040 --> 0:16:27.520 and things like that, and you know, when it comes 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:29.600 to making music for me, it's like homework. And I 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:31.760 always hated homework, but you know, you get the best 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:33.560 results when you sat down and did the homework and 0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:35.520 went to school and study for the test and things 0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:36.960 like that. So that's where I'm at with right now. 0:16:36.960 --> 0:16:38.520 I'm ready to go back in and have some fun 0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:42.040 on Besides that, it's the music in the weed right now. 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:44.120 That's what I've been putting all my energy into and 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:46.880 both of them been paying off more than ever, you 0:16:46.880 --> 0:16:48.360 know what I mean. And I'm just happy to be here. 0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:50.200 You know, I'm happy to still be in this game. 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:53.680 Twenty some are years later. I've probably seen everybody come 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:57.080 and go. It just feels good to be here. Get 0:16:57.120 --> 0:17:00.880 respected by your piers, young boys. They always showed me love, 0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:03.800 you know, trying to be humble as I get as 0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:05.639 I get older, I was a little bit wild when 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.600 I was coming up. As you can see some of them, 0:17:08.720 --> 0:17:10.440 things still come back to haunt me. So you know, 0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:12.800 I say my prayers every night like everybody else. But 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:16.000 for the most part, I'm happy. My family's happy. Nobody 0:17:16.080 --> 0:17:18.280 wants from them, and everybody's comfortable. You know, my son 0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:20.960 is happy, my lady's happy, my mom's just happy. Just 0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:27.040 got a new dog. He's happy. American Bullies like a 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:29.960 pit bull, but they call him American Bullies. A blue 0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:32.440 nose that blue eyes, so you know it's the regular. 0:17:35.000 --> 0:17:37.240 I actually haven't got to speak to Juells. I just 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.440 I just spoke to tw him yesterday, Like, come on, man, 0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:41.600 he's been gone and I haven't spoke to him yet. 0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:43.960 And things like that.

I haven't had anything crazy other than you know, 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:41.239 if you ever go to like Miami Beach or going 0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:44.760 to any place where there's a beach, sometimes the seats 0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:46.280 to be wet when people just got out of the beach. 0:19:46.280 --> 0:19:48.520 You just got out of the parents. Actually, and she 0:19:48.840 --> 0:19:51.399 sat in some yurin one time. Yeah, and she had 0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:53.080 on leggings so it was terrible, so you know, it 0:19:53.119 --> 0:19:55.760 got on her legs. This is Charlemagne and God talking. 0:19:55.800 --> 0:19:57.600 I don't have any crazy Uber stories. I actually have 0:19:57.640 --> 0:19:59.800 a four point six Uber. I got a four point 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:02.600 the four point seven congratulations. But I have a brother 0:20:02.680 --> 0:20:05.439 who has some terrible Uber stories and Wax he's been 0:20:05.480 --> 0:20:09.879 banned from Uber twice. He and he band, he got 0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:14.320 Nila band fluted DJ nilas rom Are. It's not my fault, though, 0:20:15.320 --> 0:20:18.480 why why not? Because these guys trying to make me 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:20.760 get out of the car not happening. Well, Wax, I 0:20:20.880 --> 0:20:22.840 was just telling you, you know, it'll be one hundred 0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:25.800 and four degrees outside. You have on timberlands and gloves 0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:27.720 in your back pocket. Definitely, I'm always ready. How many 0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:30.520 Uber drivers beating up six from last? Why would beat 0:20:32.640 --> 0:20:36.440 beat that cellf up didn't beat this over they hit themselves. No, listen, 0:20:36.480 --> 0:20:37.639 when you get out the car and try to take 0:20:37.680 --> 0:20:39.159 me out the car and beat you up, tell him 0:20:39.200 --> 0:20:41.760 about the time the guy kick you out the car 0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:44.800 and throw your suitcase out there. I don't even know 0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:46.800 see on my street and where I live that it 0:20:46.920 --> 0:20:49.600 was like real dark. So I guess he didn't want 0:20:49.600 --> 0:20:51.160 to go up in that street with me. If Wax 0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:54.760 is six foot six foot six, you beat him up. 0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:57.639 Wax is six foot six, muscular like he's from the 0:20:57.680 --> 0:21:01.000 Wakanda movie Where's Timberlands? And you can't you can't do that. 0:21:01.040 --> 0:21:02.840 I'm like a nice guy at though. Shoot. So he 0:21:02.920 --> 0:21:04.520 asked you to get out, You got out, and then 0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:06.880 he drove up a little back. Yeah, I didn't even 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:09.159 close my door all the way to go off, went 0:21:09.240 --> 0:21:10.800 down the street through my seat, takes out of the 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:13.080 car and bounce a call. I'm like, yo, what is this? 0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:20.840 I'm always I'm sorry, good guy, so somebody, But every 0:21:20.880 --> 0:21:22.960 time something happened, I always think of Charlotte Maine playing 0:21:22.960 --> 0:21:25.040 around anyway, So I'll kind of give guys a little leeway. 0:21:25.160 --> 0:21:27.439 Sways on you that the Uber driver was in cahoots 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:31.760 with Charlotte anytime, anytime something happened, I said, you know what, 0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:35.560 Charlottegne got sid and do with this? What kind of 0:21:35.680 --> 0:21:37.560 logic is? That's why I don't always just punch people 0:21:37.560 --> 0:21:39.200 in the face. No more. Come like Charlotmagne put you 0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:42.080 up to this? Right? And what you mean was wrong with? 0:21:42.520 --> 0:21:44.959 How do I know these? So? He beat up six 0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:48.840 Uber drivers in the past two years? Your exactly? So 0:21:49.040 --> 0:21:50.920 you feel bad that you banned from Uber?

I 0:21:58.600 --> 0:22:01.159 think that anybody who beats up t Uber drivers in 0:22:01.240 --> 0:22:04.240 the past two years deserves to be man from That's correct, 0:22:04.359 --> 0:22:06.640 all other cost services. Let's go to the full life. 0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:08.600 I might have to hide your face before they get 0:22:08.640 --> 0:22:12.439 banned from left. Hey, good morning.

Man, I did it 0:23:09.280 --> 0:23:10.600 for a little bit a couple of months ago. It 0:23:10.720 --> 0:23:12.760 was like in between jobs, and I started trying to 0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:15.320 what's the craziest thing to happen in the uber? Man?

You know, I'm 0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:38.200 looking for the people that order, and I'm looking for 0:23:38.280 --> 0:23:40.520 the guy there. So this a couple of like trumps out. 0:23:40.560 --> 0:23:42.119 I don't know if they just letter whatever. So the 0:23:42.240 --> 0:23:45.080 dude was like trunks, they trunk.

They start 0:24:13.520 --> 0:24:15.560 getting it on, and the Uber man they start getting 0:24:15.600 --> 0:24:18.199 it on, like right next to me, so I'm seeing driving. 0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:20.720 I don't keep peeking over like he's looking at me 0:24:20.800 --> 0:24:26.159 like you don'na mind. Right, I'm like, you know, I mean, 0:24:26.200 --> 0:24:28.119 he rubbing on it. She's looking at me like you're 0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:30.720 gonna mind the uber. The Uber guy watches. I'm like 0:24:30.800 --> 0:24:32.600 truckt man, I don't want to watch on me. I'm bad. 0:24:32.640 --> 0:24:34.600 You should you should have told him get through what 0:24:34.800 --> 0:24:36.359 you need to be.

It was my first my food. 0:25:01.800 --> 0:25:04.200 When I swore I can't make the story up, I 0:25:04.280 --> 0:25:06.240 got one hundred and fifty dollars pit for mine. I 0:25:06.280 --> 0:25:08.560 couldn't believe it. I feel like that's illegal, but you 0:25:08.640 --> 0:25:15.960 can send the breakfast club am at gmail dot com. Yeah, 0:25:16.040 --> 0:25:18.800 someone who works at us actually had their over rating 0:25:18.840 --> 0:25:20.840 lower because they called the uber for someone and that 0:25:20.960 --> 0:25:23.480 person ended up having a sexual incident in the uber. 0:25:24.160 --> 0:25:25.720 And I don't want to call their name out. Yeah, 0:25:25.960 --> 0:25:31.760 they actually um uh in the uber. Really Yeah, I'm 0:25:31.800 --> 0:25:34.640 a producer, Dan, I'm not saying standing next to me though, 0:25:34.960 --> 0:25:37.399 then come here, put your lips on the my what happening? 0:25:37.960 --> 0:25:40.280 You got topped off in the uber? No? I got 0:25:40.320 --> 0:25:42.600 the ouber for my buddy, and I woke up the 0:25:42.640 --> 0:25:43.919 next morning and I was wondering why there was all 0:25:43.920 --> 0:25:45.800 these complaints to my uber. Huh? And I had like 0:25:45.880 --> 0:25:48.920 a two point five rating after this, And the driver 0:25:49.080 --> 0:25:51.960 said that my buddy got from in the backseat and 0:25:53.200 --> 0:25:57.320 got it everywhere everywhere. Wow, you know what, everywhere everywhere? 0:25:57.400 --> 0:25:58.840 You know, who needs to get a one star rating 0:25:58.840 --> 0:26:01.399 in that situation? The girl why she didn't swallow? You 0:26:01.440 --> 0:26:03.840 know what? Kind of what kind of what the hell 0:26:04.080 --> 0:26:07.119 you're going on? Keep swallow? You know what? Keep it like. 0:26:07.280 --> 0:26:09.360 We have more coming up next. It's the Breakfast Club 0:26:09.720 --> 0:26:13.040 DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne, the guy we are the 0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:16.440 breakfast club. We got uh twenty twenty president who candidate 0:26:16.480 --> 0:26:19.760 in the building. Very well spoken, very well spoken, as 0:26:19.800 --> 0:26:23.400 we've heard your book is. Yeah, good morning everybody. It's 0:26:23.400 --> 0:26:25.720 really good to be back. I didn't see the first 0:26:25.720 --> 0:26:27.320 time you came in. I was actually on vacation. I 0:26:27.400 --> 0:26:31.720 know you took off, man, I came up and you went, so, 0:26:32.040 --> 0:26:34.200 you know, I'll let you slide in. I appreciate that, 0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:36.920 appreciate you've been here. This morning. We saw man Bloomberg 0:26:36.960 --> 0:26:39.640 apologize to you for calling you well spoken? Well, why 0:26:39.720 --> 0:26:41.840 is that ands thing for white people who may not know? 0:26:42.160 --> 0:26:44.080 It's almost as if, and we heard this in the 0:26:44.359 --> 0:26:47.880 Obama's first campaign, where he was called cleaning articulate. It's 0:26:47.880 --> 0:26:51.040 almost like many white folks are sort of surprised that 0:26:51.240 --> 0:26:56.480 an African American man can can speak well. And you 0:26:56.560 --> 0:26:58.679 don't hear it. You don't see this kind of surprise, 0:26:58.760 --> 0:27:01.159 Oh he's well spoken. They don't see that say that 0:27:01.160 --> 0:27:03.760 about white men. But it's a trope that we've heard 0:27:03.920 --> 0:27:09.520 for generations about African Americans. And I mean, I love history. 0:27:09.600 --> 0:27:13.359 Read about everybody from Frederick Douglas to book or T. 0:27:13.520 --> 0:27:16.879 Washington talking about people surprised that they that they're so 0:27:17.080 --> 0:27:21.560 smart or so well spoken. So it's insulting. And you know, 0:27:21.760 --> 0:27:24.960 you can't be running for the highest office in the 0:27:25.119 --> 0:27:27.920 land making mistakes, is all right, I have no we 0:27:28.040 --> 0:27:31.320 all do. We've all said things we regret, but to 0:27:31.440 --> 0:27:33.879 run for the nomination of the Democratic Party, and if 0:27:33.920 --> 0:27:37.080 you're going to be doing things that are insulting, dragging 0:27:37.200 --> 0:27:40.440 up actually painful kind of words like that, you're not 0:27:40.520 --> 0:27:42.560 gonna be able to win the presidency. It's as simple 0:27:42.600 --> 0:27:45.639 as that, because it is you cannot win the presidency 0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:50.120 if you cannot energize and activate the black community and folk. 0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:53.680 Don't understand that Hillary Clinton, and this, by the way, 0:27:53.720 --> 0:27:56.919 she wasn't it wasn't her. She was dealing with voter suppression. 0:27:57.040 --> 0:28:01.199 She was dealing with the Russians literally targeting African American voters. 0:28:02.040 --> 0:28:05.480 But all that, but the black turnout that was down 0:28:05.600 --> 0:28:09.879 from twelve to sixteen, eight hundred thousand to a million 0:28:09.960 --> 0:28:12.959 votes in those three states that we lost by seventy 0:28:13.000 --> 0:28:18.840 seven thousand votes combined Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania seventy seven 0:28:18.840 --> 0:28:21.120 thousand vote differentials. If we had won those three states, 0:28:21.240 --> 0:28:24.800 it would be President President Clinton right now. There was 0:28:25.040 --> 0:28:28.960 a voter diminution of black voters dramatically. In fact, that 0:28:29.000 --> 0:28:32.080 Milwaukee alone, the activists there told me about seventy thousand 0:28:32.160 --> 0:28:35.960 less blacks voted than had voted the four years before. 0:28:36.400 --> 0:28:40.320 So this election is critical. The African American vote is essential, 0:28:40.880 --> 0:28:42.560 and you add to that, then I'm not in this 0:28:42.680 --> 0:28:44.560 just to win the presidency. I want to take back. 0:28:44.560 --> 0:28:46.480 I want to send Mitch McConnell for the back bench. 0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:48.640 And if you think about the Senate seats that are 0:28:48.760 --> 0:28:51.920 up that we have to win North Carolina's Senate seat, 0:28:52.040 --> 0:28:55.200 South Carolina Senate seats. There are actually two Senate seats 0:28:55.240 --> 0:28:58.040 in Georgia right now, not to mention Arizona. These are 0:28:58.360 --> 0:29:00.840 states where the black and brown vote is and so 0:29:00.960 --> 0:29:05.120 imagine a Democratic nominee. Uh saying things are so insulting 0:29:05.160 --> 0:29:07.880 to the black community, dragging this up. It's just it's 0:29:08.000 --> 0:29:10.160 it's it's not gonna work. Well, what if you are 0:29:10.200 --> 0:29:13.680 well spoken, I should how should white preson described that? 0:29:13.760 --> 0:29:16.160 If well? As you are well spoken? So, I mean, 0:29:16.360 --> 0:29:19.400 you know, I appreciate that, but you know, I don't 0:29:19.440 --> 0:29:22.880 mind folks pointing out a lot of facts about me 0:29:23.640 --> 0:29:28.239 that that are have distinguished me in my career, and uh, 0:29:28.400 --> 0:29:31.360 to say that I'm well spoken is not the thing 0:29:31.440 --> 0:29:35.040 that you hear, you know, necessarily folks saying about other candidates, 0:29:37.960 --> 0:29:39.800 Really are they what are they bringing up about the 0:29:39.880 --> 0:29:42.640 other white candidates when when it's being talked about. So look, 0:29:42.720 --> 0:29:46.440 it was said, it was done. Uh you know, call 0:29:46.520 --> 0:29:49.360 it a learning moment. But I got work to do, 0:29:49.480 --> 0:29:51.400 so I'm not I'm not spending too much time. You 0:29:51.440 --> 0:29:54.360 did you did endorse me at Bloomberg? I did? Oh absolutely, 0:29:54.640 --> 0:29:56.920 he was the architect of stopping frisk he was, And 0:29:57.200 --> 0:30:00.479 and uh, why would you endorse someone with that type policy, 0:30:00.560 --> 0:30:03.160 that's that's a racist pilot. Yeah, look, we we You're 0:30:03.160 --> 0:30:05.480 seeing a lot of black mayors right now endorsing Mayor 0:30:05.520 --> 0:30:08.800 Bloomberg because you know, when I was coming up, when 0:30:08.840 --> 0:30:12.120 I first got elected and Newark was in a crisis, 0:30:12.720 --> 0:30:14.600 it was him and a few other mayors around the 0:30:14.640 --> 0:30:17.360 country that came forward and gave me really practical support. 0:30:18.320 --> 0:30:21.160 He was somebody that said, my whole administration is open 0:30:21.240 --> 0:30:23.960 to you, and we came in to learn about everything 0:30:24.080 --> 0:30:28.720 from his office of Entrepreneurialism. He stepped forward and helped 0:30:28.800 --> 0:30:31.880 us show him strategies to build affordable housing. So when 0:30:31.880 --> 0:30:33.920 it came to the tacticians of being mayor, there's a 0:30:33.920 --> 0:30:35.880 lot of incredible things that he helped those with. And 0:30:35.960 --> 0:30:39.600 I'm not shy to say it at all, but obviously 0:30:39.680 --> 0:30:43.280 the policing practices or something that's absolutely unacceptable, and the 0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:45.880 way he defended them, even when he saw the evidence 0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:47.760 presented to him as unexcited. Do you see him lie 0:30:47.800 --> 0:30:49.800 of Gail King? Another dance said that nobody ever even 0:30:49.800 --> 0:30:52.640 asked him about it until he ran for president. I 0:30:52.760 --> 0:30:55.480 did not see that. Yeah, that is Evin the same 0:30:55.520 --> 0:30:57.680 interview when he called you, I was spoken, Yeah, well 0:30:57.680 --> 0:30:59.640 that's messed up because there's a lot, a whole lot 0:30:59.680 --> 0:31:01.880 of tape of folks confronting him, and I saw a 0:31:01.960 --> 0:31:03.560 lot of the activists. Do you think his apology was 0:31:03.600 --> 0:31:06.200 bull it was just just because he's running for president. 0:31:06.480 --> 0:31:08.720 You have to you have to ask him. I don't know. 0:31:08.960 --> 0:31:11.320 And again, this to me is we're in the New 0:31:11.400 --> 0:31:13.480 York City area, so we live with this for a 0:31:13.560 --> 0:31:16.440 long time. And for me right now, the focus is, 0:31:17.160 --> 0:31:19.600 you know, I'm like running a I used to run 0:31:19.680 --> 0:31:21.320 track and my coach used to tell me when I 0:31:21.400 --> 0:31:22.960 line up for the hurdles, don't look to your leftic 0:31:23.000 --> 0:31:25.760 You're right, deal with your own obstacles, you know, get 0:31:25.840 --> 0:31:28.560 get to the Finnish line. And so I'm trying to 0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:31.120 spend much most of my time talking about my candidacy 0:31:31.200 --> 0:31:35.000 and what we're trying to achieve, because especially as Democratic Party, 0:31:35.160 --> 0:31:38.800 I'm not going to spend my time criticizing them when 0:31:38.880 --> 0:31:41.640 we all have to get together. We got one shot 0:31:41.680 --> 0:31:44.000 to make Donald Trump on one term president, and so 0:31:44.200 --> 0:31:47.320 my focus is getting getting across the finish line as 0:31:47.360 --> 0:31:49.400 being the nominee, because I think I'm the best in 0:31:49.520 --> 0:31:54.360 this field to activate that rainbow coalition, that Obama coalition, 0:31:54.960 --> 0:31:56.800 to begin to heal not just our party, but the 0:31:56.880 --> 0:31:59.640 country so that we can actually start dealing with the 0:31:59.720 --> 0:32:02.720 big problems we have that can only be solved if 0:32:02.800 --> 0:32:07.040 we start finding ways to mobilize the whole nation to 0:32:07.400 --> 0:32:09.840 deal with him. Because folks, this is going to be 0:32:09.920 --> 0:32:13.800 a very difficult decade ahead of us. Climate change alone. 0:32:14.040 --> 0:32:17.520 If you see the last New End report, the predictions 0:32:17.560 --> 0:32:20.360 they made, things are accelerating at a rate that scientists 0:32:20.400 --> 0:32:24.640 didn't anticipate. And any big thing that we've done in 0:32:24.720 --> 0:32:27.840 this country, from going to the moon to beating the 0:32:27.920 --> 0:32:32.800 Nazis has taken a mobilization beyond the lines that divide us. 0:32:32.840 --> 0:32:35.120 You had to have by party. I mean, my grandmother, 0:32:36.080 --> 0:32:38.480 black working class woman, talk to me about during the 0:32:38.520 --> 0:32:42.280 war effort, her victory gardens and her buying war bonds 0:32:42.360 --> 0:32:45.960 because it took the whole country to beat a global threat. Well, 0:32:46.000 --> 0:32:47.520 this is what it's going to take to deal with 0:32:47.640 --> 0:32:49.920 the challenges we have right now. And so I'm running 0:32:49.920 --> 0:32:53.360 a race not to tear down other Democrats. I watched 0:32:53.440 --> 0:32:56.600 that script in the last election where we couldn't even 0:32:56.680 --> 0:33:00.320 unify our party to beat Donald Trump. I'm not just 0:33:00.440 --> 0:33:02.360 trying to beat Donald Trump. I think that's the floor. 0:33:02.640 --> 0:33:04.840 It's not the ceiling. It gets us out of the valley, 0:33:05.000 --> 0:33:07.000 it doesn't get us in the mountaintop. So I'm trying 0:33:07.040 --> 0:33:08.959 to run a campaign. I always say you can't campaign 0:33:09.000 --> 0:33:10.960 wrong and then think you're going to govern right. I'm 0:33:10.960 --> 0:33:14.120 trying to run a campaign, a positive campaign, not spending 0:33:14.160 --> 0:33:16.400 my time talking about other people, but spending my time 0:33:16.640 --> 0:33:19.400 trying to inspire other folks to win a big election, 0:33:19.600 --> 0:33:23.120 wave election that wins the Senate seats, House seats, state legislators, 0:33:23.560 --> 0:33:26.200 governors seats, so that we can have the people in place, 0:33:26.440 --> 0:33:29.640 because it's not about me, it's about we to actually 0:33:29.760 --> 0:33:32.520 get the kind of change that we're going to need 0:33:32.600 --> 0:33:36.440 immediately on jump to turn this country around. But more, 0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:39.480 even bigger than that, to trying to planet around. All right, 0:33:39.480 --> 0:33:41.240 we got more with Cory Booker. When we come back, 0:33:41.280 --> 0:33:43.920 don't move. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning Torning. Everybody 0:33:44.040 --> 0:33:47.640 is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlemagne the Gay We are 0:33:47.680 --> 0:33:50.080 to Breakfast Club. Were still kicking in a Cory Booker. Now, 0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:53.280 you talked earlier about you said, Bloomberg opened up his 0:33:53.320 --> 0:33:55.400 staff for you, and you learned a lot from him 0:33:55.440 --> 0:33:58.200 about low income and housing and things like that. But 0:33:58.320 --> 0:34:00.240 what plan do you have to help people be able 0:34:00.240 --> 0:34:02.800 to own homes and create generation of wealth and to 0:34:02.960 --> 0:34:04.800 start from a place where they can get a loan 0:34:04.920 --> 0:34:07.640 and they can get a home and all those things. Yeah, 0:34:07.680 --> 0:34:09.719 So first of all, I love that you start there, 0:34:10.040 --> 0:34:13.239 because often when people talk about especially with black people, 0:34:13.239 --> 0:34:14.719 they talk about us as if we're a problem to 0:34:14.800 --> 0:34:18.200 be solved and not understanding that when we create equal 0:34:18.320 --> 0:34:22.400 pathways to wealth, it seems like it's prosperity. I mean, 0:34:22.560 --> 0:34:25.160 when I talk to them, the best economists they talk 0:34:25.200 --> 0:34:27.359 about you want to judge how what kind of jobs 0:34:27.400 --> 0:34:29.200 are going to be created? Look at the housing market. 0:34:29.480 --> 0:34:32.120 I mean people are buying homes, and so I actually 0:34:32.160 --> 0:34:34.600 start with that. I want to raise the minimum wage 0:34:34.600 --> 0:34:37.520 for fifteen dollars an hour. But people in my community, 0:34:37.560 --> 0:34:39.160 as a guy who lives in a black and brown 0:34:39.200 --> 0:34:43.320 community that's struggling around the poverty line, you know, folkarn 0:34:43.440 --> 0:34:45.960 aspiring to make minimum wage. Yeah, they want to. They 0:34:46.040 --> 0:34:47.960 want to make they want to if they're working minimum wage, 0:34:47.960 --> 0:34:50.040 they want to make a fair wage. But people aspire 0:34:50.080 --> 0:34:53.640 to wealth. And so my whole sort of economic plan 0:34:53.800 --> 0:34:57.200 really starts by that. It's it's how do we create 0:34:57.680 --> 0:35:03.480 more entrepreneurialship, more home ownership, more prosperity. And so to 0:35:03.560 --> 0:35:05.759 answer your questions specifically, we got a number of things. 0:35:05.800 --> 0:35:10.000 So Number one, I have a bill that has been 0:35:10.600 --> 0:35:12.160 a lot of academics have said this is one of 0:35:12.200 --> 0:35:15.200 the more breakthrough pieces of legislation that if we can 0:35:15.280 --> 0:35:18.239 get this done, would create generational wealth in America. And 0:35:18.280 --> 0:35:22.040 that's called baby bonds, which is everybody born in America, 0:35:22.480 --> 0:35:26.160 everyone by birthright, gets an interest bearing account with a 0:35:26.280 --> 0:35:29.359 thousand dollars in it. Everybody gets interest bearing account. Then 0:35:29.400 --> 0:35:31.800 every year of your life, depending upon the wealth of 0:35:31.880 --> 0:35:34.200 your family, you will get up to two thousand dollars 0:35:34.280 --> 0:35:37.040 deposited into that account. So we're a nation has a 0:35:37.120 --> 0:35:39.120 high child poverty rate, so one in five one and 0:35:39.200 --> 0:35:41.560 six kids are born poor. Those kids by the time 0:35:41.600 --> 0:35:44.600 that they're eighteen years old would have upwards of fifty 0:35:44.640 --> 0:35:47.560 thousand dollars in that account. Average Black family would probably 0:35:47.600 --> 0:35:50.600 have about a child will have about thirty thousand dollars. 0:35:51.040 --> 0:35:53.040 And then you can use that Now you have wealth 0:35:53.480 --> 0:35:56.480 to do things that create wealth, which is start a business, 0:35:56.560 --> 0:35:59.800 buy a home, go to college. And so I know 0:36:00.040 --> 0:36:03.279 already Columbia University says, my plan because we did it. 0:36:03.400 --> 0:36:08.120 You can't deal with generations of policies that were designed 0:36:08.480 --> 0:36:14.920 to racially impact the wealth of African Americans, the FHA, loans, redlining, 0:36:15.000 --> 0:36:16.880 all of that. We designed this in a way that 0:36:16.960 --> 0:36:18.880 we know would deal with the racial wealth gap. And 0:36:18.960 --> 0:36:22.479 Columbia University says, our bill would literally close the racial 0:36:22.520 --> 0:36:24.960 wealth gap for those teenage kids, because you know there's 0:36:25.000 --> 0:36:28.760 disproportioned African Americans, Latinos are poor, and so that alone 0:36:28.800 --> 0:36:31.360 would give people a stake to start doing things and 0:36:31.480 --> 0:36:33.200 We have a lot of folks from the housing world 0:36:33.280 --> 0:36:35.320 that said this is amazing because it would help it 0:36:35.600 --> 0:36:38.759 between that and universal basic income, because universal basic income 0:36:38.800 --> 0:36:40.960 has given money to anybody based upon anything. It's not 0:36:41.080 --> 0:36:44.720 doesn't have even racial consciousness in it. It's just Donald 0:36:44.760 --> 0:36:47.279 Trump's kids would get a thousand dollars, and I just 0:36:47.480 --> 0:36:51.799 I have a problem with given wealthy people who don't 0:36:51.840 --> 0:36:54.520 need it more money. I would rather target that towards 0:36:54.600 --> 0:36:58.840 dealing with historic inequality and to level the playing field. 0:36:59.280 --> 0:37:02.120 And that's why this one based upon income, a family's 0:37:02.160 --> 0:37:06.120 income depending how much you would get, that deals with inequality. 0:37:06.160 --> 0:37:07.520 That what you're talking about there is not going to 0:37:07.600 --> 0:37:11.520 deal with an equality, and so that's the first thing. 0:37:11.880 --> 0:37:13.960 And then we just need to start talking about housing 0:37:14.040 --> 0:37:17.720 empowering people with housing. So the rental market does affect 0:37:17.719 --> 0:37:20.680 the homeownership market because many people get stuck in rental 0:37:20.719 --> 0:37:23.320 situations where they're not saving money, right, And so I 0:37:23.440 --> 0:37:27.879 have another big effort, which is just simply there's many 0:37:27.920 --> 0:37:30.440 Americans a forty plus percent or paying more than a 0:37:30.560 --> 0:37:34.160 third of their income in rent. And by relieving that pressure, 0:37:34.640 --> 0:37:37.560 we're saying, let's give every renter in America who's paying 0:37:37.680 --> 0:37:40.799 more than a third of their income in rent, Let's 0:37:40.840 --> 0:37:45.239 give them a refundable tax credit between there what they're 0:37:45.280 --> 0:37:48.600 paying over a third of their income and the area 0:37:48.640 --> 0:37:50.960 of median rent. That would cut poverty for millions and 0:37:51.000 --> 0:37:54.000 millions of Americans, raise the incomes for millions and millions 0:37:54.000 --> 0:37:56.799 of Americans, and put people in a situation where they 0:37:56.840 --> 0:37:59.440 could have more month at the end of their more 0:37:59.440 --> 0:38:01.360 money at their month, and month at the end of 0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:03.480 their money. As they say, in other words, this idea 0:38:03.520 --> 0:38:06.440 that we can start being a savings economy because people said, oh, 0:38:06.440 --> 0:38:07.960 you should have a savings kind of savings kin out, 0:38:07.960 --> 0:38:12.080 We damn, if you're spending all your money childcare, prescription drugs, 0:38:12.200 --> 0:38:15.040 all of these things, then you're not gonna be able 0:38:15.040 --> 0:38:16.600 to save the kind of money you need to put 0:38:16.680 --> 0:38:18.680 a down payment on the house and start. So we 0:38:18.760 --> 0:38:21.000 have a big housing program, but a lot of it 0:38:21.120 --> 0:38:24.000 just it's about raising the incomes of Americans. We're going 0:38:24.040 --> 0:38:27.360 to double the production, double the earned income tax credit. 0:38:27.600 --> 0:38:29.799 That's going to give one hundred and fifty million Americans 0:38:30.120 --> 0:38:32.520 under my plan, a tax break, and we're going to 0:38:32.560 --> 0:38:35.520 expand the definition of work. The Earned income tax Credit 0:38:35.600 --> 0:38:37.400 doesn't go to kids in college who are working their 0:38:37.440 --> 0:38:39.879 way through college, doesn't go to seniors who are catching 0:38:39.920 --> 0:38:41.960 extra jobs. So we're just going to make do a 0:38:42.040 --> 0:38:44.839 lot of things to help incomes in America where people 0:38:44.840 --> 0:38:48.080 can actually have the resources necessary to create. Well, I've 0:38:48.120 --> 0:38:51.120 seen you reveal one hundred billion dollars plan for HBCUs, 0:38:51.440 --> 0:38:54.960 you announced the federal build at bands naturalhead discrimination and 0:38:55.040 --> 0:38:57.640 why do politicians wait until their run off a president 0:38:57.680 --> 0:38:59.200 to announce all these things they want to do for 0:38:59.239 --> 0:39:02.240 black people? I, first of all, that's the question I asked. 0:39:03.080 --> 0:39:04.719 As a guy who's been in public life for a 0:39:04.800 --> 0:39:09.000 long time, I say to this, don't don't suddenly run 0:39:09.040 --> 0:39:11.239 for president. Put a tab on your website about how 0:39:11.280 --> 0:39:12.960 you're going to deal with black issues. What have you 0:39:13.080 --> 0:39:16.239 been doing from jump? It's hard. It's hard for me 0:39:16.320 --> 0:39:17.960 to say that the Democrats are the party of the 0:39:18.080 --> 0:39:21.160 people when in the December debate it's diverse, but it's 0:39:21.200 --> 0:39:23.040 gonna be all way. Well three and a half years 0:39:23.040 --> 0:39:25.400 that was having a black president, No black people going 0:39:25.480 --> 0:39:27.200 to be in the debates in December. Well, first of all, 0:39:27.440 --> 0:39:29.319 I got a few more days to make it book 0:39:29.480 --> 0:39:32.920 black bro Like, yeah, I haven' qualified for debates. I 0:39:32.960 --> 0:39:34.800 haven't qualified for the debate and that I feel some 0:39:34.920 --> 0:39:37.919 kind of way about that because because not just because 0:39:37.960 --> 0:39:40.720 of personal ambition, but because to make the debate stage. 0:39:40.920 --> 0:39:43.799 This is the first time we had rules. They said 0:39:43.960 --> 0:39:47.560 you have to make a certain fundraising thresholds and certain 0:39:48.080 --> 0:39:50.640 holding thresholds. Now you see what I just came out 0:39:50.640 --> 0:39:52.600 of Iowa a few days ago. When I was up there, 0:39:52.640 --> 0:39:54.520 I'm watching late night TV is lining to my hotel 0:39:54.560 --> 0:39:57.120 bed trying to go to sleep, and it almost didn't 0:39:57.120 --> 0:39:58.880 seem like the Jimmy Kimmel Show. It seemed like the 0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:01.720 Bloomberg and Styre Show. Because they've got billions of dollars 0:40:01.960 --> 0:40:04.560 to run NonStop ads to juice up their polling numbers. 0:40:04.760 --> 0:40:07.600 So the DNC has created rules for the debate that 0:40:07.760 --> 0:40:09.920 if you're a billionaire, you can find creative ways to 0:40:09.960 --> 0:40:12.440 get on it. But but my team, which is trying 0:40:12.480 --> 0:40:14.160 to use every money to every bit of our money 0:40:14.200 --> 0:40:17.920 for grassroots organizing, which is how we beat the machine 0:40:17.920 --> 0:40:20.600 in Newark for me to become mayor, is now having 0:40:20.640 --> 0:40:22.560 to try to figure out ways to raise enough money 0:40:22.600 --> 0:40:24.759 so we can do TV ads to help get the 0:40:24.880 --> 0:40:27.920 one percent point where shy and these polls we know 0:40:28.040 --> 0:40:31.719 are imprecise. If polls were right, Hillary Clinton would be 0:40:31.760 --> 0:40:34.439 president right now, right. And so it's frustrating that we've 0:40:34.480 --> 0:40:37.200 designed a system the party that says we are about 0:40:37.239 --> 0:40:40.400 equality inclusion, not the power of billionaires and millions to 0:40:40.480 --> 0:40:43.600 warp our system. It's now this system that is going 0:40:43.640 --> 0:40:45.920 to benefit people who have a lot more money, Right, 0:40:46.360 --> 0:40:47.920 how do you beat that billionaire? How do you beat 0:40:48.000 --> 0:40:50.600 those millionaires? One is we've been calling out to folk 0:40:51.000 --> 0:40:53.959 and this has been our best fundraising stretch because people 0:40:54.000 --> 0:40:56.759 feel especially with Kamal and now dropping out, people feel 0:40:56.800 --> 0:41:00.600 some kind of way. Yeah, we're now on our track 0:41:00.640 --> 0:41:02.840 for our best online fundraising. We're hoping it's going to 0:41:02.880 --> 0:41:05.040 continue because to make the bit stage or not, we 0:41:05.160 --> 0:41:07.040 still want to make the January one. If people want 0:41:07.120 --> 0:41:10.319 my voice on that stage, the only one has called 0:41:10.360 --> 0:41:13.359 out issues. I should give Castro some credit and commasome credit. 0:41:13.760 --> 0:41:16.200 When we're up there, we are talking, we're often bringing 0:41:16.280 --> 0:41:19.120 different things in the conversation that have not been brought 0:41:19.160 --> 0:41:22.280 into the conversation. And so we're just saying to folks, 0:41:22.320 --> 0:41:24.760 if you value my voice, even if you haven't decided 0:41:24.800 --> 0:41:26.560 who your final person is you got to go to 0:41:26.680 --> 0:41:29.600 Corey Booker dot com and help us out because I 0:41:30.160 --> 0:41:33.360 refuse to let this election to be decided by the 0:41:33.440 --> 0:41:36.160 same factors that ultimately we're trying to fight in its 0:41:36.239 --> 0:41:39.239 influence over our politics. And I'm confident right now just 0:41:39.320 --> 0:41:42.560 to let folks know by the way polling is such, 0:41:45.080 --> 0:41:49.680 thank you very much. I'm trying to trying to be 0:41:49.800 --> 0:41:53.359 respectful the polling has There has never been a point 0:41:53.840 --> 0:41:56.560 and that Democratic Party in our lifetime where somebody who 0:41:56.600 --> 0:41:58.359 was leading in the polls went to the White House 0:41:58.560 --> 0:42:01.080 this far out. Let me give you Carter was around 0:42:01.120 --> 0:42:03.719 one person, Bill Clinton was around four percent. Obama on 0:42:03.920 --> 0:42:07.600 this day was almost twenty points behind Hillary Clinton in 0:42:07.680 --> 0:42:10.200 the two thousand and seven poles. Do not predict from 0:42:10.239 --> 0:42:13.160 our party who becomes president. Let me just tell you 0:42:13.280 --> 0:42:16.360 right now our campaign is the Mourne registress has me 0:42:16.400 --> 0:42:19.960 and Elizabeth Warren have the best grassroots campaigns on the field. 0:42:20.520 --> 0:42:25.120 Number two is we are leading every person in this 0:42:25.320 --> 0:42:29.120 race and indorsements from local elected officials. These are your 0:42:29.160 --> 0:42:32.000 city councilperson, these your mayor local leaders. I should say, 0:42:32.239 --> 0:42:34.640 these are the people that on the ground, that are 0:42:34.800 --> 0:42:36.799 that are that are closest to the people, so we've 0:42:36.800 --> 0:42:39.560 got we're endorsed by those folks. So we're pretty feeling 0:42:39.600 --> 0:42:42.200 pretty good about our ability to do what Obama did 0:42:42.360 --> 0:42:46.080 upset expectations in Iowa. All right, we got more with 0:42:46.160 --> 0:42:48.440 Cory Booker when we come back, don't move. It's to 0:42:48.480 --> 0:42:53.960 breakfast Club. Good morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlemagne, 0:42:53.960 --> 0:42:55.839 the guy we are to Breakfast Club was still kicking 0:42:55.880 --> 0:42:58.560 in with Corey Booker. Charlemagne, Is it embarrassing being the 0:42:58.640 --> 0:43:04.000 black candidate who camp guard black support? No? God, no, Look, 0:43:04.239 --> 0:43:07.319 we are brand loyal in our in our in our time. 0:43:07.520 --> 0:43:10.440 And Obama was the black candidate and he was way 0:43:10.520 --> 0:43:14.160 behind Hillary Clinton right now in in in South Carolina 0:43:14.160 --> 0:43:18.480 amongst black voters. Is that? Why Why do black, older 0:43:18.520 --> 0:43:20.800 black people love Joe Biden so much? Especially when you 0:43:20.840 --> 0:43:23.280 look at like the eighty eight crack Laws, the ninety 0:43:23.320 --> 0:43:26.279 four crime bill. Nothing put more black and brown people 0:43:26.280 --> 0:43:27.759 in the jail than those bills. Why why do people 0:43:27.800 --> 0:43:30.600 love him so much? Listen, we are a we are 0:43:30.800 --> 0:43:34.239 loyal folks, and also, like other voters, we want to win. 0:43:35.080 --> 0:43:37.480 We don't want Donald Trump to be there. And the 0:43:37.640 --> 0:43:40.280 perceived wisdom right now, just like it was when Obama 0:43:40.320 --> 0:43:42.759 was running that the Clintons, if the perceived wisdom as 0:43:42.800 --> 0:43:45.640 he can win, I gotta prove I can win, and 0:43:46.040 --> 0:43:48.440 I know the loyalty of black voters to me, is 0:43:48.480 --> 0:43:51.080 it difficult being a black candidate, especially with the expectations 0:43:51.520 --> 0:43:54.839 of not just black voters but black people because they 0:43:54.960 --> 0:43:57.040 might say, I don't know why they say, say Cary's 0:43:57.080 --> 0:44:00.799 not black enough, Cary's corny. You know, sat and Night 0:44:00.800 --> 0:44:02.759 Alive would make fun of you and be like Corey 0:44:02.840 --> 0:44:06.000 has all these well prepared, rehearthed lines and debates like 0:44:06.600 --> 0:44:08.320 you know, shield a need to like put on a 0:44:08.600 --> 0:44:10.960 like I gotta be down, you know. No. Look, the 0:44:11.120 --> 0:44:13.880 movie Street Fight has this incredible scene and this is 0:44:13.880 --> 0:44:16.560 about this is the Oscar nominated movie when watching online 0:44:16.560 --> 0:44:20.680 for free now about My Rise in Newark, and it 0:44:20.840 --> 0:44:23.040 lost to March of the Penguins and the Oscars. But 0:44:23.400 --> 0:44:25.400 this this powerful scene of a sister in that movie 0:44:26.239 --> 0:44:28.640 going against because because this was what the opposition of 0:44:28.719 --> 0:44:31.520 Newark the machine and Newark is saying, oh, he's not 0:44:31.560 --> 0:44:34.080 black enough to and this woman just broke it down 0:44:34.080 --> 0:44:35.520 and says, why is it that a guy who goes 0:44:35.560 --> 0:44:38.000 off and does everything we want him to do. You know, 0:44:38.160 --> 0:44:41.520 I went off to Stanford University. I joked I got 0:44:41.600 --> 0:44:43.719 him because of a four point sixteen hundred four point 0:44:43.719 --> 0:44:46.080 our yards per carry, sixteen hundred receiving yards, because I 0:44:46.120 --> 0:44:49.320 got in on a football scholarship. But you know, I 0:44:49.440 --> 0:44:52.600 stayed and did master's degree. There, went off, it was 0:44:52.640 --> 0:44:55.000 Oxford or Rose scholar, came back to Yale Law School 0:44:55.440 --> 0:44:58.080 and she's just like, why is that suddenly? And then 0:44:58.160 --> 0:44:59.560 he did what we would want him to do. He 0:44:59.640 --> 0:45:01.920 came back to the community to serve. Like my dad 0:45:02.040 --> 0:45:04.239 was not impressed. My dad from you know, you know, 0:45:04.360 --> 0:45:06.239 both my parents grew up a segregated times. My dad 0:45:06.400 --> 0:45:07.960 was from from the South, and he looks at me 0:45:07.960 --> 0:45:09.440 and goes, boy, you got more degrees in the month 0:45:09.440 --> 0:45:11.600 of July. But she ain't hot. You know, life in 0:45:11.640 --> 0:45:13.480 about the degrees you get. It's about the service you give. 0:45:13.520 --> 0:45:15.719 You want to make your parents proud, get back to 0:45:15.760 --> 0:45:18.840 the work of making this country a just place for everyone. 0:45:18.880 --> 0:45:22.680 And so I made a decision, you know, with my 0:45:23.640 --> 0:45:26.879 yl law degree, I moved into the neighborhood. I still 0:45:26.920 --> 0:45:29.320 live in a black and brown community in the Central 0:45:29.360 --> 0:45:31.680 ward of Newark, New Jersey. A lot of them say 0:45:31.719 --> 0:45:36.200 you never really lived in though. Look man, there is 0:45:37.160 --> 0:45:39.960 a lot of people say a lot of things. But 0:45:40.440 --> 0:45:42.880 my whole life, my whole majority of my life now 0:45:42.920 --> 0:45:45.240 has been spent living in the same community in Newer 0:45:45.920 --> 0:45:48.560 living for eight years, and the projects in Newer and 0:45:49.400 --> 0:45:52.520 the people that got me elected, Miss Virginia Jones. I 0:45:52.520 --> 0:45:54.480 could go through the tenant leaders who walked me through 0:45:54.560 --> 0:45:57.480 the projects there. They're rarely had there ever been an 0:45:57.560 --> 0:45:59.400 upset in New York. I was the youngest city councilors, 0:45:59.480 --> 0:46:02.680 never elected because of elderly folks and young folks who 0:46:03.440 --> 0:46:05.800 walked me through and put their credibility on mine. I 0:46:05.840 --> 0:46:08.080 still miss Miss Jones. When people would answer the door, Frank, 0:46:08.280 --> 0:46:10.239 they would say, they would answer the door, open the 0:46:10.280 --> 0:46:12.840 door in the projects because they recognized them, and they 0:46:12.880 --> 0:46:15.319 would just say, we can trust this boy, we can 0:46:15.400 --> 0:46:17.399 trust him. And one of the reasons I'm still wasn't 0:46:17.400 --> 0:46:20.160 a white woman calling you a boy. No, it's like 0:46:20.239 --> 0:46:22.520 a woman who's like my mother, Miss Virginia Okay, yeah. 0:46:23.640 --> 0:46:27.120 And and literally the reason why I moved into the 0:46:27.280 --> 0:46:29.680 into brick towers was because Miss Jones. When I got 0:46:29.719 --> 0:46:31.440 elected when she got me elections, don't forget where you 0:46:31.480 --> 0:46:33.560 came from, don't forget the people that were there for you. 0:46:33.640 --> 0:46:35.080 So I said, I only want to forget. I'm going 0:46:35.160 --> 0:46:38.520 to move into the toughest place where people will say 0:46:38.600 --> 0:46:40.239 things like he can't live there, there's no way he 0:46:40.320 --> 0:46:42.720 lived there. Well, I wanted to live with the community. 0:46:42.760 --> 0:46:45.520 When I became mayor, I made a decision with my team, 0:46:45.600 --> 0:46:47.880 let's find the sector of the city that they say 0:46:48.000 --> 0:46:49.960 is the most dangerous with the most shootings, because I 0:46:50.000 --> 0:46:52.239 want to move into that area of the city. And 0:46:52.280 --> 0:46:53.800 I remember getting a lot of death threats. I do 0:46:53.920 --> 0:46:58.120 remember that as well. People like you've had some tough scrapes. 0:46:58.200 --> 0:47:01.040 But look, people, that gets a lot of tension for 0:47:01.120 --> 0:47:03.759 me because I'm the mayor of the city or what 0:47:03.880 --> 0:47:06.360 have you. But folk are living up in dangerous environments 0:47:06.800 --> 0:47:09.160 in our communities all the time. That's why I tell folks. 0:47:09.200 --> 0:47:12.200 And I've had this conversation in Washington with people like 0:47:12.560 --> 0:47:16.600 issues like gun violence. The majority of homicide victims in 0:47:16.640 --> 0:47:20.480 America are black men. Majority of the homicide victims in 0:47:20.520 --> 0:47:23.320 America are black men. And so for me, when I 0:47:23.400 --> 0:47:26.360 go to that White House, talk about lived experience. I 0:47:26.480 --> 0:47:29.040 will remember. I can name the children in my community 0:47:29.560 --> 0:47:31.560 when I was mayor whose funerals I have to I 0:47:31.640 --> 0:47:33.520 had to go to. But you don't want to take 0:47:33.520 --> 0:47:35.120 away guns though. You just want some type of gun 0:47:36.080 --> 0:47:39.680 legislation to regulates. Let me just tell you this, because 0:47:39.680 --> 0:47:42.120 I made this point when I was mayor. I could 0:47:42.160 --> 0:47:45.400 only find one circumstance in newer where somebody who was 0:47:45.480 --> 0:47:48.800 shot was shot by a person who had legally obtained 0:47:48.840 --> 0:47:51.840 their weapon, and that person was a correctional officer that 0:47:51.960 --> 0:47:53.840 used it to shoot at her boyfriend and do a 0:47:53.920 --> 0:47:58.080 horrible murder suicide. Every other shooting in my community was 0:47:58.120 --> 0:48:01.400 done by somebody who wouldn't qualify to buy gun. So so, 0:48:01.960 --> 0:48:04.759 so my point is this is it not a law 0:48:04.800 --> 0:48:07.480 of buying citizens gun ownership. It's the laws that we 0:48:07.680 --> 0:48:11.320 have to allow people to obtain guns who should not 0:48:11.400 --> 0:48:13.239 obtain guns. So I'm not against you. I don't know 0:48:13.280 --> 0:48:14.840 if you have Charlomagne. I don't know if you have 0:48:14.880 --> 0:48:17.560 a weapon. Oh yeah, I do. You know cleared us 0:48:17.640 --> 0:48:19.480 up for us because about nine years ago we did 0:48:19.520 --> 0:48:23.160 an event with you in Harlem. Yeah, and I swear 0:48:23.280 --> 0:48:25.239 me and NV saw you were a gun and you 0:48:25.320 --> 0:48:27.719 had it tucked in your back, and I was like, Yo, God, 0:48:27.800 --> 0:48:31.160 welcome back that. Did you ever used to carry him? No? 0:48:31.320 --> 0:48:34.840 I never cared. I'm sure I do, But I wasn't Hallow. 0:48:34.920 --> 0:48:36.399 It wasn't Hall. It was on the Upper east Side 0:48:36.440 --> 0:48:37.600 or something like that. I don't know where was that, 0:48:37.680 --> 0:48:40.120 but I was just like, yo, And I honestly made me. 0:48:41.040 --> 0:48:42.920 Did you because I know about the death threats and 0:48:42.960 --> 0:48:46.400 stuff like that, but carrying? Yeah? Yeah, but you know 0:48:46.440 --> 0:48:48.120 I got a question. Sure you never carried your on weep. 0:48:48.200 --> 0:48:51.200 I never carried a weapon man, never, Never I fired him, 0:48:51.200 --> 0:48:52.759 But I've never carried What was that in your back 0:48:52.800 --> 0:48:54.480 that time? I have no idea. Maybe it was like 0:48:54.600 --> 0:49:00.840 a granola bar. Katie was here and she said that 0:49:00.960 --> 0:49:03.360 you guys went on a blind date. True, so a 0:49:03.400 --> 0:49:06.120 football game? True? And you never asked it out again? 0:49:06.360 --> 0:49:08.000 Well no, she said, she never asked you out again. 0:49:09.040 --> 0:49:13.680 Say that. She said, you never asked it out again? 0:49:13.760 --> 0:49:20.359 Why was that? Um? You send some time? Why am 0:49:20.400 --> 0:49:21.959 I going back there?

She founded Voto Latino, which is this 0:50:51.000 --> 0:50:55.520 activist ory. She's like a righteous activist person that uses 0:50:55.600 --> 0:50:57.960 her position to do as much good as she possibly can. 0:50:58.040 --> 0:51:00.600 For she's an entrepreneur. I know you respect that, but 0:51:00.719 --> 0:51:03.000 she's not. She's a conscious capitalist in the sense of 0:51:03.520 --> 0:51:07.200 she's working with women in Africa to develop a capacity there. 0:51:07.600 --> 0:51:10.000 I mean just everything about her amazes me every day, 0:51:10.640 --> 0:51:13.520 and I just I'm just I'm just really blessed.

Well, 0:51:19.640 --> 0:51:25.440 first of all, uh, some people say everything everything, and 0:51:25.560 --> 0:51:27.680 I don't care. I'm not. I don't care.

Donkey Today goes to 0:53:12.080 --> 0:53:16.600 a substitute teacher at a school in Sarasota, Florida, named 0:53:16.640 --> 0:53:19.040 Heather Carpenter. Now it's for whatever reason she had a 0:53:19.120 --> 0:53:22.840 dispute with the school's principle. Heather was allegedly upset to 0:53:22.920 --> 0:53:25.680 the school's principle was set to have a birthday party 0:53:25.960 --> 0:53:28.520 at a particular venue. The venue in question was the 0:53:28.600 --> 0:53:31.600 pavilion in Erfur Park. Now, I don't know what Heather 0:53:31.719 --> 0:53:34.799 has against the principle or the principal's daughter. But Heather, 0:53:35.120 --> 0:53:39.120 a substitute teacher decided to be a party pooper. Literally, 0:53:39.320 --> 0:53:41.440 let's go to Fox thirteen for the report. Police. All 0:53:41.560 --> 0:53:44.279 eight of these picnic tables here at Erfur Family Park 0:53:44.400 --> 0:53:47.439 had to be replaced after a woman spread human waste 0:53:47.480 --> 0:53:50.000 and fecal matter all over the wood as a form 0:53:50.040 --> 0:53:53.080 of payback. Let's mixture of urine and feces and she 0:53:53.160 --> 0:53:55.759 had in a big cup. The nasty vandalism costs the 0:53:55.840 --> 0:53:59.000 county more than twenty three hundred dollars for clean up, 0:53:59.160 --> 0:54:03.040 replacing table and grills, and reimbursing and rescheduling a birthday 0:54:03.080 --> 0:54:05.919 party set for the pavilion later that morning. It only 0:54:06.000 --> 0:54:08.880 took the Sarasota County Sheriff's office a few days to 0:54:09.000 --> 0:54:12.000 track down and arrest Heather Carpenter. The forty two year 0:54:12.000 --> 0:54:15.360 old is charged with felony criminal mischief. Turns out Carpenter 0:54:15.440 --> 0:54:19.000 is a substitute teacher at Philippi Shores Elementary School. According 0:54:19.040 --> 0:54:22.320 to arrest paperwork, Carpenter wasn't happy with how the principle 0:54:22.480 --> 0:54:25.440 handled a professional complaint she made. At the end of November. 0:54:25.600 --> 0:54:29.120 The Sarasota woman admitted to investigators she smeared the feces 0:54:29.200 --> 0:54:31.560 with the goal of spoiling the birthday party planned at 0:54:31.600 --> 0:54:34.719 the park that day. The celebration was for the principal's daughter. 0:54:34.880 --> 0:54:37.919 Officials say Carpenter is no longer a substitute and can't 0:54:38.000 --> 0:54:41.400 volunteer at any district schools. Well, this investigation is active. 0:54:41.600 --> 0:54:45.960 You think Heather was with the sugar honey iced teas? Okay? 0:54:46.280 --> 0:54:48.520 Now I have a homeboy who shall remain nameless, who 0:54:48.600 --> 0:54:50.680 used to have a real problem beating people up. So 0:54:50.840 --> 0:54:53.200 he went to angle management as part of his probation 0:54:53.280 --> 0:54:55.200 for beating people up. So whenever he wanted to beat 0:54:55.239 --> 0:54:58.080 people up, instead he would resort to fighting with pieces. 0:54:58.400 --> 0:55:01.480 What I mean, that's it's crazy. I didn't see him. 0:55:01.920 --> 0:55:03.520 What I mean by that is, if he had a 0:55:03.560 --> 0:55:05.719 beef with someone, he would cut your cars he opened 0:55:05.719 --> 0:55:08.319 and put dingle berries in the cushions, or he might 0:55:08.400 --> 0:55:10.160 go on your house and put a couple of chocolate 0:55:10.200 --> 0:55:12.920 delights in your sneak. Because I remember that it is 0:55:13.080 --> 0:55:15.160 I remember he had an issue with his next door neighbor, 0:55:15.239 --> 0:55:17.319 and the next door neighbor's roommate, you know, let him 0:55:17.360 --> 0:55:19.960 in the house. So my guy put butt truffles in 0:55:20.000 --> 0:55:23.960 the neighbor's couch. Cushions. What's a butt truffle turd? Never 0:55:24.400 --> 0:55:26.800 understood why the roommate was down with that because he 0:55:26.880 --> 0:55:29.080 had to live there too. All right, tomorrow of the 0:55:29.160 --> 0:55:32.239 story is it's just some real live turd terrorists out here, 0:55:32.400 --> 0:55:36.479 and Heather Carpenter is clearly wanted them. My thing is, Heather, 0:55:36.600 --> 0:55:39.000 you got beef with the principal, why resort to attacking 0:55:39.040 --> 0:55:41.480 the kids, because that's essentially what you were doing by 0:55:41.560 --> 0:55:44.080 spreading butt mud all over the picnic tables and grills 0:55:44.120 --> 0:55:46.160 at this park. None of the adults were gonna be 0:55:46.200 --> 0:55:48.839 affected by these rusty nuggets. I mean, sure, you put 0:55:48.920 --> 0:55:51.520 some rector warriors on the grills, so that means everybody's 0:55:51.560 --> 0:55:53.880 burger would end up getting fudge babies on them, But 0:55:54.000 --> 0:55:56.919 why do that to the kids? Okay? What is something 0:55:56.960 --> 0:55:59.600 else to chocle Challa always tells you never go to 0:55:59.719 --> 0:56:01.960 wall which someone who gives an f less than you, 0:56:02.280 --> 0:56:05.160 And clearly Heather Carbiner don't give an f anyone can 0:56:05.239 --> 0:56:08.120 get it, men, women and children.

Now, Heather has been charged with 0:56:26.680 --> 0:56:29.560 third degree felony mischief in property damage, and there's no 0:56:29.680 --> 0:56:32.600 way she can be in population with other prisoners, because 0:56:32.640 --> 0:56:34.960 what if this tird terrorists decides to let a bunch 0:56:34.960 --> 0:56:37.839 of frightened turtles loose in a prison?

This is Astley. Hey Ashley. 0:58:03.840 --> 0:58:06.280 What's your question for you? Oh? I kind of just 0:58:06.440 --> 0:58:11.480 wanted her advice on dealing with my boyfriend and his mother. 0:58:11.720 --> 0:58:15.880 His mom is like very involved in our relationship. She 0:58:16.040 --> 0:58:20.120 drinks a lot and she Yeah, we used to be 0:58:20.240 --> 0:58:23.080 like really closely in her but um, she's kind of 0:58:23.320 --> 0:58:25.760 you know, she got the drinking and got like little disrespectful, 0:58:25.920 --> 0:58:28.160 and so it's like really hard on him because he's 0:58:28.160 --> 0:58:29.680 in the between the both of us a lot with 0:58:29.920 --> 0:58:33.160 arguing and like not talking to each other, and she 0:58:33.280 --> 0:58:35.280 has a lot to do with the problems that are 0:58:35.360 --> 0:58:37.640 in all relationship and it's just like kind of really 0:58:37.680 --> 0:58:39.960 hard to deal with. Man. I had to date a 0:58:40.000 --> 0:58:42.280 guy one time whose mother actually used to drink a 0:58:42.360 --> 0:58:44.040 lot and then she would always call him and then 0:58:44.160 --> 0:58:48.120 they start arguing, and so I had a similar situation. 0:58:48.600 --> 0:58:51.760 She never got disrespectful with me, though. Now when you 0:58:51.880 --> 0:58:53.840 say she's a cause for a lot of arguments in 0:58:53.920 --> 0:58:56.760 your relationship, why is that? What are the arguments that 0:58:56.840 --> 0:58:59.760 y'all are having? Um, just basically kind of how to 0:58:59.840 --> 0:59:02.320 deal with her? I mean, like she's so impulsive that 0:59:02.480 --> 0:59:04.960 it's like, you know, I'm just not used to that. 0:59:05.120 --> 0:59:07.200 She'll say one thing and forget that she said it, 0:59:07.400 --> 0:59:10.440 and then you know what I mean, Like it's just 0:59:10.640 --> 0:59:12.760 it's almost like talking to a different person every day, 0:59:12.800 --> 0:59:14.960 and it's just really frustrating to have to deal with that. 0:59:15.720 --> 0:59:18.640 He lives with her now, we were living together, but 0:59:18.920 --> 0:59:20.840 you know, we just kept arguing over him, just like 0:59:20.920 --> 0:59:23.320 always going over there to see her instead of like 0:59:23.400 --> 0:59:25.600 hanging out with me, which is fine, like that's your mother. 0:59:25.680 --> 0:59:27.320 Of course, I'm not going to be opposed to you 0:59:27.440 --> 0:59:29.920 being around her, but I just don't like being around her. 0:59:30.040 --> 0:59:32.760 So you know that that energy that she gives off 0:59:32.840 --> 0:59:35.400 and that vibe. I know she talks about me to 0:59:35.520 --> 0:59:36.920 him and how she doesn't want me to be with 0:59:37.120 --> 0:59:39.800 him and she would rather him be with his child's 0:59:39.840 --> 0:59:43.120 mother and things like that. It's just those things constantly 0:59:43.160 --> 0:59:46.240 being said to him and him telling me that it's 0:59:46.240 --> 0:59:49.600 just like that bothers me of course well as a 0:59:49.680 --> 0:59:52.480 mother before, you know, just things that are just like 0:59:53.160 --> 0:59:56.360 really out of pocket. So here's a couple of things here. 0:59:56.480 --> 0:59:59.600 Number one, her alcoholism is a sickness. It's a disease, right, 1:00:00.560 --> 1:00:04.760 and and so I do feel like she's saying those things, 1:00:04.840 --> 1:00:06.480 but you have to look at it from the fact 1:00:06.520 --> 1:00:08.880 that she's not well. And so I think when she's 1:00:08.960 --> 1:00:11.160 lashing at it too like that that's more of a 1:00:11.240 --> 1:00:14.280 reflection on her not feeling well about what she's going through. 1:00:15.120 --> 1:00:18.840 So I want you to understand that. Secondly, you're a 1:00:18.920 --> 1:00:20.760 man has to figure out what he's going to do 1:00:20.920 --> 1:00:23.840 to deal with this issue. Obviously, you know, in an 1:00:23.880 --> 1:00:26.560 ideal situation, you guys will get along, but y'all don't 1:00:26.640 --> 1:00:28.600 right now. Is he trying to get her some help? 1:00:30.800 --> 1:00:32.440 I don't know. I feel like there's just kind of 1:00:32.760 --> 1:00:35.240 in denial about it. Like I mean, he obviously knows 1:00:35.280 --> 1:00:37.640 that she's not you know, she's not well right now, 1:00:37.840 --> 1:00:40.480 but it's just so hard to deal with her, and 1:00:40.560 --> 1:00:43.400 it's so hard to tell her things about herself. It's 1:00:43.440 --> 1:00:45.400 just you know what I mean, everyone's just kind of 1:00:45.400 --> 1:00:47.280 like tired of being the dead horrors at this point. 1:00:47.440 --> 1:00:50.560 You know, like she just doesn't she doesn't believe she's 1:00:50.600 --> 1:00:53.120 not bad, and you know, she's just you know, she's 1:00:53.120 --> 1:00:55.080 an adult. We can't only force her to do anything. 1:00:55.160 --> 1:00:56.920 If you talk to her, she gets very defensive, so 1:00:58.520 --> 1:01:00.320 you know, it's it's kind of just hard. It's hard. 1:01:00.320 --> 1:01:02.040 I get it's hard for him to deal with as well, 1:01:02.160 --> 1:01:04.120 but it's like, you know what they mean. I don't 1:01:04.160 --> 1:01:06.520 want to feel like take a side, but no, and yeah, 1:01:06.600 --> 1:01:08.760 you can't say pick a side either. I think it 1:01:08.920 --> 1:01:11.240 is important for you to be supportive of your man. 1:01:12.120 --> 1:01:14.400 And when I say being supportive of your man. Understand 1:01:14.480 --> 1:01:16.120 that I'm sure it's difficult for him to have to 1:01:16.160 --> 1:01:18.720 deal with this, to be in this situation, and instead 1:01:18.760 --> 1:01:20.560 of you guys coming from a place where it's me 1:01:20.960 --> 1:01:24.040 against you over her, you have to be like, I'm 1:01:24.040 --> 1:01:26.240 supporting you because I know this is difficult for you 1:01:26.920 --> 1:01:28.760 and it is difficult for me. So can we support 1:01:28.800 --> 1:01:30.800 each other to make sure that this doesn't tear us apart? 1:01:31.160 --> 1:01:33.600 And how can we try to make sure that we 1:01:33.760 --> 1:01:36.320 get her some type of help because she really does 1:01:36.440 --> 1:01:38.480 need it, and I do care and I do want 1:01:38.480 --> 1:01:41.480 to be with you right then. I do fat like that, 1:01:41.560 --> 1:01:43.480 and I do love him, and you know, I definitely 1:01:43.800 --> 1:01:45.800 keep him in mind whenever i'm you know, trying to 1:01:46.240 --> 1:01:48.360 deal with the situation, because I don't want to be 1:01:48.680 --> 1:01:50.600 you know, I don't want to be a personal disrespectful 1:01:50.720 --> 1:01:53.160 to your mind. I want you to feel like, you know, 1:01:53.720 --> 1:01:55.720 I'll never be able to be around your mom or 1:01:55.800 --> 1:01:57.320 you know, because ultimately that's going to wear in a 1:01:57.400 --> 1:02:03.440 relationship fight. Yeah, this situation, So you know what, you 1:02:03.520 --> 1:02:06.080 and your man should go and actually talk to somebody, 1:02:06.120 --> 1:02:07.960 and then when he's come to it with that, he 1:02:08.000 --> 1:02:12.080 should encourage his mother to come with him as well. Right, yeah, 1:02:12.120 --> 1:02:14.520 I think that's a good idea too. I hope she 1:02:14.680 --> 1:02:17.400 was right. Well, you know, best of luck to you, 1:02:17.560 --> 1:02:20.200 and don't give up on your man and listen, it's hired. 1:02:20.280 --> 1:02:22.960 Sometimes outside horses affect our relationship and they should and 1:02:23.040 --> 1:02:25.400 everything else can be great. It could be that one thing. 1:02:25.480 --> 1:02:28.840 And sometimes it's just your approach, right right, I definitely 1:02:28.840 --> 1:02:31.800 don't want approach him, say, but oh we'll see and 1:02:31.840 --> 1:02:34.760 we'll see. And now girl, just counter ten backwards every 1:02:34.800 --> 1:02:38.400 time you start getting mad and breathe right right right, 1:02:38.520 --> 1:02:41.040 that's definitely helpful. But thank you so much. All right, 1:02:41.160 --> 1:02:44.120 good luck. Ask ye eight hundred five A five one 1:02:44.200 --> 1:02:46.120 on five morning. If you need relationship advice, hit ye 1:02:46.240 --> 1:02:50.120 Now it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is 1:02:50.200 --> 1:02:53.680 DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are the 1:02:53.680 --> 1:02:57.480 Breakfast Club. We got Tony on the line. Tony, good morning, y'all. Hey, 1:02:57.520 --> 1:03:00.320 what's uping? What's your questing for you? Ye? So become 1:03:00.600 --> 1:03:03.800 before I became an elusive member of the black Man 1:03:03.920 --> 1:03:07.440 No Cheat Club, that's right, baby, Prior to all that, 1:03:07.560 --> 1:03:13.240 I messed up when I cheated with my girl. Remember okay, 1:03:13.320 --> 1:03:15.240 Well this is prior to you know what I got, 1:03:15.280 --> 1:03:18.520 I got a new inspiration. Not okay, but before then 1:03:18.960 --> 1:03:21.760 I was cheated, messed up. But now my girl feel 1:03:21.760 --> 1:03:24.280 as if I shouldn't have any female friends now not 1:03:24.880 --> 1:03:28.760 I feel it with new female friends with me, any mean, 1:03:28.920 --> 1:03:32.240 prior old, whoever they are. She don't want me to 1:03:32.320 --> 1:03:35.160 have anything. How do I go about handling that you 1:03:35.240 --> 1:03:37.600 want to be with her? Right of course, you got 1:03:37.680 --> 1:03:40.320 caught cheat and you're trying to prove something, right of course. 1:03:40.840 --> 1:03:42.920 Well I think when you're trying to prove something, and 1:03:43.000 --> 1:03:44.840 I'm sure the guys in the room can attest it, 1:03:44.840 --> 1:03:47.160 that you kind of gotta do whatever your girl wants 1:03:47.160 --> 1:03:50.720 you to do for the time being, because she's now 1:03:50.800 --> 1:03:53.640 feeling insecure, she's not sure about things. So if that 1:03:53.760 --> 1:03:56.240 means that you have to back off from certain friendships 1:03:56.280 --> 1:03:58.760 that you had prior to her for now, you might 1:03:58.840 --> 1:04:00.640 have to do that. Now, as you guys get into 1:04:00.680 --> 1:04:03.480 a better space, maybe you can ease back into having 1:04:03.520 --> 1:04:07.120 those friendships and she'll be okay with that, especially if 1:04:07.160 --> 1:04:10.920 those friendships were genuine. I had a friend who cheated 1:04:10.960 --> 1:04:14.520 on his girlfriend and they ended up, you know, breaking up. 1:04:14.520 --> 1:04:18.080 But then they got back together and his girlfriend did 1:04:18.120 --> 1:04:20.800 not like me. He did, she did not want him 1:04:20.800 --> 1:04:22.240 around me. And you know what I did as a 1:04:22.280 --> 1:04:24.840 friend to him, I said, that's cool, though that's important 1:04:24.840 --> 1:04:26.520 to you, that's your relationship. I don't want to cause 1:04:26.560 --> 1:04:29.240 any problems. A real friend will understand that and back 1:04:29.320 --> 1:04:31.400 to f up. And that's exactly what I did. Now, 1:04:31.480 --> 1:04:34.440 their relationship didn't end up lasting, and of course we're 1:04:34.480 --> 1:04:37.360 still friends to this day. But all I'm saying is 1:04:37.600 --> 1:04:39.360 he had to do what was necessary, and your friends 1:04:39.400 --> 1:04:42.439 should understand that. Now. Hopefully, if those women are your friends, 1:04:42.480 --> 1:04:44.439 they also will end up being friends with your girl, 1:04:44.920 --> 1:04:48.120 because that's important too. But for now, as you're trying 1:04:48.160 --> 1:04:50.720 to win her back, and that's really something, you want 1:04:50.760 --> 1:04:52.520 to go hard for it. Even if it's not certain 1:04:52.560 --> 1:04:54.520 things that she doesn't you don't agree with that she 1:04:54.600 --> 1:04:55.880 might want you to do, you kind of got to 1:04:55.920 --> 1:04:57.880 do it. That's right. We don't negotiate with terrorists, and 1:04:57.920 --> 1:04:59.480 your wife is looking at you like a terrorist. You 1:04:59.520 --> 1:05:01.520 do what she tells you to do, including but not 1:05:01.640 --> 1:05:05.720 limited to a finger in your don't debate, don't debate me, 1:05:05.840 --> 1:05:08.440 don't debate me. Yeah, and listen listen. It's sometimes it's 1:05:08.440 --> 1:05:10.640 a long road to get that trust back because you 1:05:10.880 --> 1:05:12.720 it takes a long time to build back trust when 1:05:12.720 --> 1:05:14.880 it's broken. But you have to be in it for 1:05:14.920 --> 1:05:16.800 the long haul if that's really what you want. But 1:05:17.160 --> 1:05:20.320 there is there in an extreme point and they're too 1:05:20.400 --> 1:05:24.760 longer a timetable. No, are you listening? Are you willing 1:05:24.800 --> 1:05:27.040 to do anything? Because listen, there could be a breaking 1:05:27.080 --> 1:05:28.400 point for you where you're like, you know what, I 1:05:28.480 --> 1:05:30.960 can't do this anymore. I'm out. You have to determine 1:05:31.040 --> 1:05:34.880 that flat Okay, too easy? All right, Well, good luck. 1:05:34.960 --> 1:05:38.840 I hope you make it happen. Man, don't cheat, that's right, baby, 1:05:38.960 --> 1:05:42.160 all right? Anymore? Ask ye eight hundred five eight five 1:05:42.240 --> 1:05:44.240 one oh five one.

He gave me my meat load everything I liked, 1:06:38.400 --> 1:06:40.680 and I went to the back of the store and 1:06:40.960 --> 1:06:45.600 ate and fell asleep. When I came back, he said 1:06:45.600 --> 1:06:50.160 a whole I said, no, it was like thirty minutes. Hello. Oh, 1:06:50.560 --> 1:06:53.840 we got into a big old argument over there.

We're a breakfast club 1:10:19.479 --> 1:10:23.760 this morning. Everybody is DJ Mvy Andela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. 1:10:23.840 --> 1:10:26.000 We are the breakfast club that we have a special 1:10:26.080 --> 1:10:29.360 guest in the New York Public Library. I'm not gonna 1:10:29.360 --> 1:10:31.599 mess up your name, sir, so I'm gonna ley introduce 1:10:31.640 --> 1:10:37.679 you Tocy last name, last name on your on your booty, 1:10:39.640 --> 1:10:41.840 your boot I know you used to get that a 1:10:41.880 --> 1:10:45.960 lot in school because the name is middle school was 1:10:46.000 --> 1:10:52.960 fun on your I don't want to say it wrong. 1:10:53.600 --> 1:10:58.880 What is that Nigerian? Yes, and let's talk about your 1:10:58.920 --> 1:11:01.160 buck that we're actually using for our program with the 1:11:01.200 --> 1:11:04.920 new York Public Library. War are girls, and it actually 1:11:05.000 --> 1:11:07.680 takes place in Nigeria. And I actually had to do 1:11:07.800 --> 1:11:10.720 some history on this because there's a war and then 1:11:10.760 --> 1:11:13.720 it's a Biafrin. Is that how you're saying Biafran? So 1:11:13.800 --> 1:11:16.479 give us a history of Biafran because it's Biaffrin, and 1:11:16.600 --> 1:11:20.959 then that's part of Nigeria. Right. So Nigeria became independent 1:11:21.200 --> 1:11:23.160 and I believe it was nineteen sixty and then in 1:11:23.240 --> 1:11:26.439 nineteen sixty seven, the Ebo tribe who were concentrated in 1:11:26.520 --> 1:11:30.200 southeast Nigeria wanted to secede and they announced their independence 1:11:30.200 --> 1:11:32.720 in nineteen sixty seven. And then what followed was like 1:11:32.880 --> 1:11:37.320 three years of war and famine and it was just catastrophic, 1:11:37.400 --> 1:11:41.000 and you saw all these like England or like the 1:11:41.200 --> 1:11:44.559 UK and the US and everything got involved, but mostly 1:11:44.600 --> 1:11:46.400 on the side of the Nigerians. And so it was 1:11:46.600 --> 1:11:49.759 very much a David versus Goliath thing. Biafra got crushed, 1:11:50.160 --> 1:11:54.680 you know, three years later and eventually subsumed back into Nigeria. 1:11:55.000 --> 1:11:57.120 But the thing about it was there were no real 1:11:57.520 --> 1:12:00.800 like reparations or no real attempt to deal with it 1:12:01.360 --> 1:12:05.040 or deal with the underlying ethnic tensions. And so even 1:12:05.160 --> 1:12:09.000 today you have like renewed calls for succession. So it 1:12:09.120 --> 1:12:12.400 seemed like now was the time to definitely like revisit 1:12:12.520 --> 1:12:15.200 that even in this like you know, science fictional way, 1:12:15.360 --> 1:12:18.160 but to like because in Nigeria, nobody talks about the offer. 1:12:18.360 --> 1:12:20.920 You said it's alternate Nigeria, Like what exactly is the 1:12:20.960 --> 1:12:24.200 alternate Nigeria? So I just wanted to I wanted to 1:12:24.280 --> 1:12:26.200 set it in the future, and so I wanted to 1:12:26.280 --> 1:12:29.320 write a story where there were black girls piloting giant 1:12:29.400 --> 1:12:32.240 robots um. And I also wanted to set it in 1:12:32.320 --> 1:12:36.080 Africa because there are so few pictures or depictions of 1:12:37.000 --> 1:12:40.519 Africa in the future, Like all all most people know 1:12:40.680 --> 1:12:45.200 is black panther, right, Like that's that's it, that's the place, yeah, exactly, 1:12:45.360 --> 1:12:49.280 And so I wanted to present, you know, another version 1:12:49.400 --> 1:12:52.160 and see what you know, Africa in the future would 1:12:52.160 --> 1:12:54.880 look like people and white people. Yea, if we don't, 1:12:55.040 --> 1:12:56.680 if we don't, if we don't stop going back to 1:12:56.760 --> 1:13:00.320 o Homeland exactly, and it takes place in any one 1:13:00.439 --> 1:13:05.120 sent I love the fact that you're doing black science fiction. 1:13:05.600 --> 1:13:09.040 It's a genre that I want to explore. But I 1:13:09.160 --> 1:13:11.439 just don't, you know, because all black stories. They always 1:13:11.439 --> 1:13:13.160 try to put us in the same thing. It's always 1:13:13.240 --> 1:13:15.400 from the hood. It's always a drug deal, it's always 1:13:15.439 --> 1:13:17.479 something like that. The fact that black science fiction. That's 1:13:17.479 --> 1:13:19.640 why I love what Jordan Pills doing. So for you 1:13:19.720 --> 1:13:21.360 to be writing something like this, I think it's very 1:13:21.479 --> 1:13:23.160 very dope. If I want to be a writer, I 1:13:23.320 --> 1:13:25.000 don't just have to write about how tough it is 1:13:25.000 --> 1:13:27.040 to be a black person in the right. That's right. 1:13:27.320 --> 1:13:29.400 I can write whatever I want, right, And that's why 1:13:29.400 --> 1:13:31.200 I listen. That's why I get something. I get mad 1:13:31.240 --> 1:13:33.840 at some of this art that we put out because 1:13:33.840 --> 1:13:36.680 if we're gonna tell fictional stories about black people, can 1:13:36.800 --> 1:13:43.519 we win? Can we change the narratives? Yeah? Like Jesus Christ, 1:13:43.840 --> 1:13:47.720 embody like about queen and slim one thing that I'm 1:13:47.720 --> 1:13:49.920 not gonna talk about it, right, But let me ask 1:13:49.960 --> 1:13:52.680 you this, um, So the process. Let's say somebody is 1:13:52.800 --> 1:13:55.400 very interested in science fiction and writing, how do you 1:13:55.720 --> 1:13:59.639 go about creating a world that's doesn't even exist? Were 1:13:59.640 --> 1:14:04.679 you high? No? I don't, but like writing is my high, 1:14:04.800 --> 1:14:08.160 right high? Just um. It starts out as this like 1:14:08.240 --> 1:14:10.800 assemblage of just like cool that I want to put 1:14:10.880 --> 1:14:14.120 in this world and then I you know, start putting 1:14:14.120 --> 1:14:17.000 it together and thinking about, Okay, what's important in this society? 1:14:17.439 --> 1:14:20.240 What do people care about? How is it divided? Like 1:14:20.520 --> 1:14:22.640 is there are there class differences? Is there like a 1:14:22.760 --> 1:14:25.560 racial component? And like, one thing that I wanted to 1:14:25.640 --> 1:14:27.880 do with war Girls, so like what's happening in Africa 1:14:28.000 --> 1:14:31.719 right now is there's a huge push for Chinese influence 1:14:32.280 --> 1:14:35.240 right like and like you know, nobody's talking about that, 1:14:35.439 --> 1:14:37.080 right And that was something that I wanted to have 1:14:37.280 --> 1:14:40.040 in the book, was like this discussion about Okay, I 1:14:40.600 --> 1:14:44.280 really like that's an actual Like, that's an actual thing 1:14:44.360 --> 1:14:46.400 that I wanted to get at. Was like, Okay, if 1:14:46.439 --> 1:14:48.360 we're if we're looking at Africa in the future, we're 1:14:48.400 --> 1:14:50.800 going to have to you know, reckon with you know, 1:14:51.120 --> 1:14:53.360 where we're at now with regards to Chinese influence in 1:14:53.400 --> 1:14:55.640 the continent and whether or not it's you know, just 1:14:55.840 --> 1:15:00.040 like another brand of colonialism, right it definitely is a 1:15:00.160 --> 1:15:02.560 new brand colonialism. Oh and I mean even when you 1:15:02.600 --> 1:15:04.960 see guys like Jack Dorsey say I'm gonna go spend 1:15:06.600 --> 1:15:09.240 and don't come, don't come to Africa please they come, 1:15:09.320 --> 1:15:11.800 They're coming back to take the mother yea bro Like 1:15:12.120 --> 1:15:14.960 there's there's nothing good that can come from Jack Dorsey 1:15:15.000 --> 1:15:18.000 coming to Africa. There's nothing doubt. It's just literally like 1:15:18.240 --> 1:15:21.559 don't do it. Don't do it that a little bit 1:15:21.640 --> 1:15:25.559 why well, Like so, so for instance, one small example, 1:15:25.760 --> 1:15:28.920 like micro lending is huge in Africa, right because there 1:15:28.960 --> 1:15:32.960 are people that need specifically, if you're like a small business, 1:15:33.080 --> 1:15:35.599 right you you you got a stall in the market 1:15:35.680 --> 1:15:38.600 that you sell clothes or fruit from or whatever, you 1:15:38.720 --> 1:15:42.439 occasionally need a loan to like cover overhead or like 1:15:42.600 --> 1:15:45.600 if you're if you're short on payments or whatever. And 1:15:45.760 --> 1:15:48.479 so what's happening is you have all these like apps 1:15:48.680 --> 1:15:51.000 and all these tech companies that are getting in and 1:15:51.160 --> 1:15:54.960 developing these like micro loans where they charge a ton 1:15:55.000 --> 1:15:58.080 of interest on these loans. So people will take out 1:15:58.080 --> 1:16:01.120 a loan's interest, so the rate will be something like 1:16:01.280 --> 1:16:05.240 thirty five Joe. It's like just just out of this world. 1:16:05.600 --> 1:16:08.680 So people will take out the loan, but then to 1:16:08.760 --> 1:16:10.720 pay the fees on the loan or to pay back 1:16:10.760 --> 1:16:12.880 the loan, they have to take out another loan. And 1:16:12.960 --> 1:16:16.559 so it becomes this cycle right where you have the Yeah, 1:16:16.960 --> 1:16:19.760 so like stuff like that is leg I mean, that's 1:16:19.800 --> 1:16:21.680 the thing is it's not regulated in a lot of 1:16:21.760 --> 1:16:28.200 African countries, like they're no, Like it really is, That's exactly. 1:16:28.280 --> 1:16:30.320 And so you look at, say, for instance, how much 1:16:30.640 --> 1:16:35.480 Twitter and Facebook have screwed up like America and American democracy, 1:16:35.560 --> 1:16:37.280 and you look at like the role that Facebook played 1:16:37.280 --> 1:16:40.280 and bregs it, yes, and then you're like, wait a second, 1:16:40.320 --> 1:16:41.479 what are they going to do in a place that 1:16:41.600 --> 1:16:44.320 doesn't even have a lot of the democratic and political 1:16:44.400 --> 1:16:47.599 infrastructure that America has, right, And it's just like it's 1:16:47.640 --> 1:16:49.920 going to be the apocalypse, And I'm like, yo, please, Jack, 1:16:50.000 --> 1:16:51.880 don't do it. I do want to talk about the 1:16:51.960 --> 1:16:54.760 effects of war, right, because that is also a theme 1:16:55.120 --> 1:16:58.160 throughout the book. We see the different women being affected 1:16:58.240 --> 1:17:00.960 and child soldiers and all of that. So just as 1:17:01.000 --> 1:17:03.880 a theme because it is War Girls, right, discuss what 1:17:04.040 --> 1:17:06.000 it is that you did when it comes to war 1:17:06.080 --> 1:17:09.000 and the effects of war on these people. So child 1:17:09.200 --> 1:17:11.960 soldiers weren't necessarily a big issue in the bi Offering war. 1:17:12.280 --> 1:17:14.640 But one of the things that inspired War Girls was 1:17:15.000 --> 1:17:17.839 I studied a lot of the conflicts in African countries 1:17:17.880 --> 1:17:20.320 in the nineties and the two thousands, and in like 1:17:20.439 --> 1:17:23.479 the Liberian Civil War, a ton of child soldiers, and 1:17:23.600 --> 1:17:25.400 I wanted to show the effects of that, like what 1:17:25.640 --> 1:17:29.160 is it? What does it mean to be in that position? Right? 1:17:29.240 --> 1:17:31.599 Like what does it do to you? And so I'm 1:17:31.600 --> 1:17:34.479 working on the sequel to War Girls now and it's 1:17:34.520 --> 1:17:37.080 going to be interesting seeing how some of these characters, 1:17:37.720 --> 1:17:40.240 the ones who do survive, deal with the trauma of that. 1:17:40.800 --> 1:17:44.760 Give me that, man, listen, you know this is the 1:17:44.880 --> 1:17:48.360 next wave. Hey, you know I'm talking about Black science 1:17:48.479 --> 1:17:51.800 fiction is absolutely positively the next wave, Like this is 1:17:51.840 --> 1:17:53.160 going to end up being a TV show, It's gonna 1:17:53.200 --> 1:17:55.240 end up being a movie. And I know, so you know, 1:17:55.360 --> 1:17:58.559 fingers speaking into existent. The New York Times said they 1:17:58.600 --> 1:18:02.120 could see this as a movie. That true because you 1:18:02.200 --> 1:18:05.400 know why, because every black story has been told and 1:18:05.479 --> 1:18:07.880 you know, black is gold right now. But Black creatives 1:18:08.439 --> 1:18:10.559 have to start doing things like this because we're we're 1:18:10.600 --> 1:18:12.760 We're not We're not a monolithic Yeah, there you go. 1:18:12.960 --> 1:18:16.479 Blurds need representative, Yes we do.
