Implicit in that advice is people don't recognize 195 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: what doesn't work for other people. And so you know, 196 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 2: there's there's there's programs that tell you, like, get on 197 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,719 Speaker 2: the scale every day, look at your way every day. 198 00:09:58,840 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 4: Da da da da. 199 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 2: But that might be for people trying to lose weight 200 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 2: or people that are calorie count or what like. 201 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 4: There's rhymes and reasons to that. 202 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: There's some places where they're like, don't look at that 203 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 2: shit every day because it goes up and down a 204 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 2: couple of plowers every day anyway, or however much it 205 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 2: fluctuates based on water and all this other stuff too. 206 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 2: Weigh yourself once a week, see see if your habits 207 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: are doing it.

I got a job after a 217 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 2: few years a few offer. I got a job offer 218 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 2: a few years ago, and the onboarding process was extremely 219 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 2: unexpectedly fast. I had to take a drug test not 220 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 2: too long, got to receiving the offer. Our smoke weed 221 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 2: occasionally and was unsure my pe would make the cut. 222 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 4: On the day of the test. That's my best friend 223 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 4: gave me that pee. 224 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 2: I put it in a five hour energy bottle, got 225 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 2: some hand warmers and put everything in the slot on 226 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 2: of my underwear. Yours got to be body temperature. They 227 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 2: don't watch you pee, so surprisingly this worked out for me. 228 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 2: It was nerve wracking, though, and I would never do 229 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,199 Speaker 2: this again. However, I was kind of impressed with myself 230 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 2: for this idea at the time. All in all, I'm 231 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 2: glad some places are reconsidering drug testing.

And I don't mean that in a negative way, 504 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 2: but just like if you need help, you need help, 505 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 2: right and obviously we know like, yes, you can be 506 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 2: an asshole and be mentally ill. Yes, you can be 507 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 2: you can get treatment and help and all those things 508 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 2: and still be an asshole somehow, right, Like, I'm not 509 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 2: trying to downplay that as as a thing like it 510 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 2: doesn't exist, but I'm also just not sure how. 511 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 4: Much it matters. 512 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 2: If somebody is an asshole or not when it comes 513 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 2: to those things, because it's like. 514 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 4: People are allowed to be assholes. 515 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 2: Like like, this is one of the reasons that I 516 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 2: think the whole way we treat mental illness is kind 517 00:24:55,800 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 2: of it's kind of ridiculous because we're saying essentially like 518 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 2: we at least the currency on social media for mental 519 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 2: illness is very much like a a you're mentally ill, 520 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 2: we have so much sympathy for you. 521 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 4: You're not accountable for anything you do. You're not beholden 522 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 4: to anybody or anything. 523 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 2: You're just. 524 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 4: You can't help yourself. 525 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 2: And I think that's a bad way to look at 526 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 2: shit like that, because a lot of times what we 527 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 2: end up doing is basically making it like, well, you 528 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 2: can't be held accountable when you do something fucked up, 529 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,959 Speaker 2: it's not fucked up because if we say it's fucked up, 530 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 2: then we gotta admit that you're fucked up and we 531 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 2: can't do that. And now I don't like that, and 532 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 2: I think it hampers us a lot. 533 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it has to be a balance. 534 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 1: And a lot of times when people are in various 535 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 1: different mental states and you happen to be somebody who 536 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: has a normal function in mind, and it's very hard 537 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 1: for you to perceive and interact with them because you're 538 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: thinking and you're interacting with them from your normal functioning mind. 539 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:09,160 Speaker 3: And so. 540 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: A lot of times, like I said, the average person 541 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 1: hasn't been trained. They don't know what to do, they 542 00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: don't know what the signds like, Like, it's a lot 543 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: that goes behind those things. 544 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 2: Also, mental illness is just not it's not a box. 545 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 2: By what I mean by that is there aren't necessarily 546 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 2: rules to it. And I think people treat it like 547 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 2: it's rules because they make it feel simpler to us. 548 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 2: And like, I don't think it does anybody any good 549 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,919 Speaker 2: when like someone has a mental health issue they're clearly 550 00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 2: in the throes of like an episode, and then somebody 551 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 2: else who has a similar diagnosis, but you're not probably 552 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 2: not the same. It's like, well, my bipolar doesn't make 553 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 2: me racist or whatever. It's like, yeah, we know, but 554 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 2: there's different grades of bipolar. That's like saying because you 555 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 2: And the reason I think is bullshit, by the way, 556 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 2: is because when there's something else that happens, like when 557 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 2: a person is schizophrenic and they like kill a parent 558 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 2: or something, or they bipolar and they attack they physically, 559 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 2: like assault their mom, we don't. No one pops up 560 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 2: then to go, well, my ballotpolar doesn't make me attack 561 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 2: my mom. No, we go what they probably couldn't help 562 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,199 Speaker 2: themselves whatever was happening in their mind, which is not 563 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 2: a reliable narrator. 564 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 4: They ended up doing something they typically would not have. 565 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 2: Done because of what was going on in their mind, 566 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 2: whatever chemical imbalance thing they were dealing with. 567 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:34,199 Speaker 4: I think that is the healthy way to look at it. 568 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 2: I think the stuff that we like to like dunk 569 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 2: on people or we see people go through pop like 570 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 2: in pop culture we see celebrities go through shit and 571 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 2: we're just dunking on them. I think it's stupid. I 572 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 2: think it's reductive. I think it's the opposite of mental 573 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,120 Speaker 2: health work. But at the same time, I'm not an expert, 574 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 2: and I'm sure I have my moments when somebody does something, 575 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 2: and I'm like, that motherfucker. 576 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:55,120 Speaker 4: Is like, what are we gonna do? 577 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. So I don't have all 578 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 2: the answers, but I definitely think about that. And if 579 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 2: you're friends with somebody that has mental health issues and stuff, yo, 580 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 2: they be going through it. And the hardest thing to 581 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 2: accept this is not about you, you know, like like 582 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,359 Speaker 2: they have to show up for themselves and they have 583 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,199 Speaker 2: to do so much work on them before they can 584 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 2: even be with like a friend to you. They have 585 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 2: to learn what it is to be a friend of themselves, 586 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 2: to regulate their own issues. And if you have any 587 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 2: issues anxiety and stuff, you know what that is, but 588 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 2: maybe not to the same degree. And so and the 589 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 2: last thing I'll say on it is this, and maybe 590 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 2: you can't be friends and that's and that's okay too. 591 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 4: It's not a punishment to them. 592 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 2: And you're not trying to hurt them, because I see 593 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: this happen a lot with the way people weaponize mental illness. 594 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 2: They'll make it seem like it's society's issue, and I 595 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 2: don't and I'm not saying this to be cold blooded. 596 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 4: This is just facts. 597 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 2: The therapists, the psychiatrist, the psychologists. 598 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 4: Those people are there to help. 599 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 2: You deal with what your your have going on in 600 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 2: your head. Period. So when you see somebody on social 601 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 2: media being like, I'm depressed, but y'all ain't reaching out 602 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 2: to me. Ain't nobody at colle they say, check on 603 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 2: your strong friends with you. That's no offense, but that's 604 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 2: not a solution because a therapist, the work you're supposed 605 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: to be doing, the medicine you're supposed to be on, 606 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 2: it is supposed to be helping with those type of 607 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: obsessive thoughts. And it's a black hole, meaning the there's 608 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 2: no amount of checking on you that's gonna stop the 609 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 2: depression from kicking your ass unless you fight it back. 610 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 2: Unless you and I mean with your team of professional people. 611 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 2: It's not it's not gonna just be I got enough likes, 612 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 2: someone sent me enough. 613 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 4: Pictures of puppies. 614 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 2: These are serious mental health issues, and I think social media, 615 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 2: in the way it is consuming us, in the way 616 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 2: we consume it, has really trivialized that into like send 617 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 2: me pictures of your kids. And it's like, I don't 618 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: know how to tell y'all this, But if you're thinking 619 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 2: of like harming yourself or something, or you're going through 620 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 2: like that voice in your head just telling you you 621 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 2: ain't shit. It's gonna take more than that. Or you're 622 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,520 Speaker 2: gonna be right back here. You're gonna be right back 623 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 2: here being agro and passive, aggressive and blaming the internet 624 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 2: for your loneliness and for all this stuff, and it's 625 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 2: gonna all still go back to what are you What 626 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 2: steps are you taking to work on that?

I've learned boundaries the last five years. I'm 629 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 2: much healthier now than I was because I used to be. 630 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 2: I would blame myself. I would fall for that, like, man, 631 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 2: maybe I'm not checking on enough people. Maybe I'm not 632 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 2: like which is also a type of vanity in yourself 633 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 2: of like I'm so important. If I just text this person, 634 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 2: I keep them from fucking killing themselves. I don't know that. 635 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 2: I don't know that, and it's kind of a wild 636 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 2: thing to as soon and there's not a direct line 637 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 2: of blame and all that stuff, So like, yeah, anyway, 638 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 2: and I appreciate you not being the kind of person 639 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 2: that will record your friend or whatever, right because I 640 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 2: feel like that's what happens in our society where everything 641 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 2: is quote unquote content. That's what happens in our society 642 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 2: where Kanye West is going on a fucking unhinged rent 643 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 2: and someone is filming it to upload. 644 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 4: The social media for us to judge later. 645 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 2: That's not that's that's wild you Because if I saw 646 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 2: a homeless man doing that, unhoused person whatever, if I 647 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 2: saw a person on the streets doing that, I would 648 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 2: not pull out my phone and be like, kind of 649 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 2: get some content right, And I think the vast majority 650 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 2: of people listen to us wouldn't do that. 651 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 4: But that's where we're at, is that people do that. 652 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 2: And whether it's Kanye West or just the god of 653 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 2: the street, to me, it's the same issue, which is 654 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 2: your once your mental health.

It's 677 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 2: happening in those passes aggressive you know, those those vague 678 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 2: book posts. That's the down. You see what I'm saying, 679 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 2: and it ain't like the high the highest. Al'm on 680 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 2: ag live. Oh here's a picture of me.

I'm the greatest shooter, I'm best. 683 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 2: But the downs, you know, it's disappearing, and you're just 684 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 2: hoping that you know that they're working on something. 685 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 4: To help themselves get that balance. It sucks, fucking sucks. 686 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 4: Eve says, it's always great when Brandon is on the show. 687 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 2: He's so funny. I think this will be the first 688 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 2: year I'm not watching the oscars. I'm just tired of 689 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 2: being disappointed. Nicki Minaj is basically what happens when you 690 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: surround yourself with yes men who won't tell you, who 691 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 2: won't tell you to chill out. And I'm not sure 692 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 2: a lot of people won't to agree. But after listening 693 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 2: to Meg's song Hiss a handful of times, I don't 694 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,080 Speaker 2: think the song was even about Nikki. 695 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 4: The Megan's Law line could have applied. 696 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 2: To any of these rappers that are alleging to be 697 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 2: messing with young girls, especially Drake, who has been looking 698 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 2: at who has been looked at for his association with 699 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 2: the kid from Stranger Things, if there was anyone, that's 700 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 2: funny Because last time Brandon was on the show, I 701 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 2: talked to him and we talked about that Drake thing 702 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:14,240 Speaker 2: with Millie Bobby Brown, and I'm a person that doesn't 703 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 2: really believe it. 704 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,279 Speaker 4: I really do think. 705 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 2: Our generation, people my age do not like Drake right 706 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 2: and typically, if you do not like somebody, you will 707 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 2: believe the worst things you can think about them, period, 708 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 2: And it doesn't really require a lot of proof, things 709 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 2: like someone telling you, like not the unless he's just 710 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 2: a complete fucking idiot, which maybe he is. He's a 711 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 2: complete fucking idiot, and he is just at the dirtiest, 712 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 2: most criminal motherfucker on the planet and we just ain't 713 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 2: been talking about it, right, Okay, maybe that's possible. I 714 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 2: will allow for that. I don't I don't think that's true. 715 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 4: But motherfuckers that do shit like that don't tell you 716 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 4: they do the shit like that. 717 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. They not gonna come out 718 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 2: and just be like like, That's why r Kelly is 719 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 2: such a rare example people because they're like, yo, he 720 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 2: was talking about it the whole time, right, Like Drake's 721 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 2: shit is not his music isn't like I'm trying to 722 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 2: fuck a fourteen year old and no shit like that 723 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 2: is it. And then the fact that both child actors. 724 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 2: He's a former child actor, she is a child actor. 725 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 2: She's openly telling people like, yeah, you know, we text sometimes. 726 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 4: Blah blah blah. 727 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 2: The fact she's engaged with some guy now like, I 728 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,120 Speaker 2: don't think it was ever a sexual thing, but I 729 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:30,240 Speaker 2: think people want him to be the worst person possible, 730 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 2: so they're walking around saying stuff like that because it 731 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 2: will justify disliking him, which I don't think you need 732 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 2: extra ammunition to dislike somebody. I know you're done, but 733 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 2: I think that's what the nature of the Internet is, 734 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 2: the Internet pal on. 735 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:49,840 Speaker 4: But I do think that song was about Nikki. 736 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 2: I I like you said, you have a minority opinion, definitely, 737 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,799 Speaker 2: because the entire internet thought it was about Nikki before 738 00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 2: Nicki even responded. 739 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 4: So like either. 740 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 2: And the reason I have to give credit to Meg 741 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 2: and say I think it's about Niki is because if 742 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 2: it's not about Nikki, it makes it seem almost like 743 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 2: Meg is stupid somehow, like she was just talking about 744 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,439 Speaker 2: Drake and Nick and Nikki just went off like no, 745 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 2: Nicki's been talking shit about her, and she's also surrounded 746 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 2: by her step her brother is a convicted pedophile, her 747 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:37,839 Speaker 2: husband convicted of statutory rape or something like that. So yeah, 748 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 2: I don't know how Nikki. I don't know how anyone 749 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 2: will listen to that song. And I see even if 750 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 2: the line is broad enough to hit some other people. 751 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:50,800 Speaker 2: It's Nicki's one of the people. If there was anything 752 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 2: in the song that was about Nicki, it was most 753 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 2: likely the line about the people beefing with Meg and 754 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 2: Meg doesn't even know what the problem is. But regardless 755 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 2: of who Megan was talking about, it doesn't matter anymore 756 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 2: because Nicky made it. Nicki made it about herself. Abra's 757 00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 2: alreadt for three days straight a week now, and I 758 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 2: think she's still going. Megan does never have to respond 759 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 2: again because Nicki lost strictly from the meltdown. She had 760 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 2: not to mention her big foot dis track was straight 761 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:12,560 Speaker 2: up ass. 762 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 5: Yeah. 763 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 2: I mean, like I said, I the smart thing to 764 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,360 Speaker 2: do is probably to not respond, But I think Nicki 765 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 2: is not. 766 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:23,880 Speaker 4: And she not the kind of person that show that 767 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 4: kind of restraint. 768 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 2: Agreed Uh the poll? 769 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 4: Oh wait, no YouTube? 770 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 2: Let me check the YouTube and see any comments for 771 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:32,400 Speaker 2: just went to town on me? 772 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 4: No comments. 773 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 2: Sometimes I feel like when we have a great guess, 774 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 2: we get less comments than what it's us by ourself, 775 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 2: And I wonder if that's just because the audience puts 776 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 2: It's like what the guests kind of feel done for 777 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 2: the audience. 778 00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,319 Speaker 3: They Yeah, I can see that they. 779 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:47,360 Speaker 4: Said stuff during the show. 780 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:48,919 Speaker 2: You know the pole. 781 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:50,839 Speaker 4: Do you panic when you see a non white man 782 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 4: flying your plane?

I played basketball consistently my whole life, Uh, 941 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:15,239 Speaker 2: several days a week, and the pandemic is the only 942 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 2: time that hasn't happened. And uh, I. 943 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 4: Don't know, I just miss it a lot. 944 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 2: So, and then I tried to get the lunch time 945 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 2: run to see if like people still want to play 946 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 2: at lunch. Nobody was really interested in that ship, So 947 00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 2: I don't even know. 948 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: It's something that everybody broke, and it's probably be hard 949 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 1: to get people to get back into the movie. I 950 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,440 Speaker 1: think people may if they know it's gonna be real, 951 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 1: people like I'm not wasting my time if nobody's gonna 952 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 1: be out there. 953 00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:39,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you got to get some people to do 954 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:44,439 Speaker 2: it first. Somebody gotta be the first people anyway. But yeah, 955 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:46,399 Speaker 2: so that's that's why I'm talking about it a little bit. 956 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 2: But uh yes, I did some more stuff with the 957 00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 2: physical trainer yesterday, learned some more exercises to do in 958 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 2: the gym, got new goals for this week. So we'll 959 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,879 Speaker 2: see where it goes. Shoot Beck says, I love Karen 960 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,040 Speaker 2: so much she dropped gyms for the ladies. When Karen 961 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:04,719 Speaker 2: said I would not fight over a man because I'm 962 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 2: too pretty and too precious, I hollered. The idea that 963 00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 2: a straight woman's worth is only tied to having a 964 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:13,000 Speaker 2: man or being a mom is still entrenched into society's consciousness. 965 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,319 Speaker 2: That some women will do anything in order to say, well, 966 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 2: at least I got a man. I wish both men 967 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 2: and women at larger realize that they can have healthy, 968 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:24,879 Speaker 2: reciprocal love and platonic relationships that can be emotionally satisfying. Yeah, 969 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 2: I agree, like I have. I have friends of both 970 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:33,760 Speaker 2: genders and stuff like that. That's not the issue. But 971 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:39,359 Speaker 2: it is always interesting because I always see people say 972 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,479 Speaker 2: shit conmen and women be friends and all this shit, 973 00:47:41,520 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 2: and I always feel like their children, you know, or 974 00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:48,360 Speaker 2: just like every woman, you know, you gotta want to 975 00:47:48,440 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 2: fuck right, Like that's not unrealistic. I'm the crazy one 976 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:55,000 Speaker 2: to be like, well, that's not realistic, Like that's my 977 00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 2: friend and that's it. I don't know. 978 00:47:58,280 --> 00:47:58,959 Speaker 4: It's so weird. 979 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:00,759 Speaker 2: It's such a weird thing. And I don't know what 980 00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,319 Speaker 2: you do with that, because people really do believe that shit, 981 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 2: and it leads to lots of jealousy and relationships. It 982 00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 2: leads to like, motherfuckers, they literally have no friends of 983 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 2: different genders and surrounding themselves the same fucking opinions, the 984 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 2: same kind of person over and over, and I think the. 985 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 4: It seems like the majority of people believe that shit. 986 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 2: I don't think.

The homie could be Bossy Domit like Randolph. 989 00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 2: Whoever I'm taking, that's the homie.

You know, like a I 995 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 2: don't even know why. There's difficult for people, you know 996 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 2: what I mean. 997 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 1: And I think for a lot of people, they have 998 00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,759 Speaker 1: gone through a lot of different relations so people have 999 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 1: cheated and all like like, so a lot of people 1000 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:07,359 Speaker 1: are coming into this relationship with baggage and it's and 1001 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 1: you're human. It's very hard to treat each relationship as 1002 00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 1: a reset, you know, because you come in with the 1003 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:16,799 Speaker 1: memories of things that have been done to you in 1004 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 1: the past, all the hurt, all the pain, all these things, 1005 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:23,920 Speaker 1: and if this is something that's happened to you before, 1006 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:26,359 Speaker 1: you go Nope, you can't deal with nobody else oposite sex, 1007 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:28,279 Speaker 1: because the dude, that last dude I was messed with 1008 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:30,239 Speaker 1: last one day was fucking somebody. So no, you can't 1009 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 1: have nobody this opposite sex. Yeah, so that's why they 1010 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 1: come in with these hard rules. But yeah, very unrealistic. 1011 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,359 Speaker 1: But you as a company to talk about these things, 1012 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:39,920 Speaker 1: and people don't want to do that. They rather just 1013 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 1: make these hard rules to quote unquote simplify shit versus 1014 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: talking about the insecurities that you have within yourself. 1015 00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot of jealousy and stuff. And I mean, look, 1016 00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 2: and there are people to have relationships where it's most 1017 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:54,840 Speaker 2: you know, there's open relationships, there's poly relationships. 1018 00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 4: Like, there's a lot. 1019 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 2: It's everything done have to be like a hetero monogamous 1020 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:02,279 Speaker 2: situation in the first place. But I do understand like 1021 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 2: communication and all that stuff. But I'm just saying, even 1022 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 2: in friendships, for fuck, fuck the sex, Like take sex 1023 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:14,200 Speaker 2: out of this. Even in friendships, there's something that is 1024 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 2: healthy and rewarding about being able to talk about somebody, 1025 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,440 Speaker 2: talk to someone that has a different point of view, 1026 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 2: and y'all still have like a level of trust and understanding, right, 1027 00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:29,240 Speaker 2: and that is not based on like transactional shit. Because 1028 00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 2: one of the problems with like when you throw the 1029 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:37,760 Speaker 2: romance and stuff into it when it's beyond platonic transactional stuff, 1030 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 2: and sex is already kind of a like an interesting 1031 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 2: space that I'm not trying to be in with people, 1032 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:46,239 Speaker 2: you know, I don't want to. Like It's like when 1033 00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:48,359 Speaker 2: people talk about someone owing them sex because they did 1034 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 2: something for them or whatever. It's just like, so it's 1035 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:54,080 Speaker 2: a ridiculous concept to me. So I just think in general, 1036 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 2: people could be rewarded by just being able to see 1037 00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:00,840 Speaker 2: people as three dimensional being that exists. 1038 00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 4: It's more than just like romantically. 1039 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 3: Right nowtside of just fucking. 1040 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:09,520 Speaker 2: The time at home during the pandemic helped me establish 1041 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,680 Speaker 2: some very strong friendship bonds, which actually made it easier 1042 00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 2: for me when I started dating again because I felt 1043 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 2: complete without a man. This allowed me to be more 1044 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:20,080 Speaker 2: picky instead of doing the panicky oh my god, I'm fat, 1045 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 2: black and fifty. I better take what I can get 1046 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,560 Speaker 2: any who. I'm sorry, I went on a mini rant. 1047 00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 2: Just wanted to say I love cares in sights Banner 1048 00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 2: and her not knowing yep, thank you. 1049 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:33,800 Speaker 1: And the way I feel about myself now at forty 1050 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: four is not the way I used to feel about 1051 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 1: myself years ago, and so the confidence that I have 1052 00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 1: in myself now is a real confident. So when I 1053 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,600 Speaker 1: say these things, I mean it like I am too pretty, 1054 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 1: I am too pressure. 1055 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:50,759 Speaker 3: Now, how you feel about me is irrelevant. 1056 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,439 Speaker 1: This is how I feel about myself, and that's more 1057 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,440 Speaker 1: important than how anybody else perceives. 1058 00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 2: Well, you say that, but you also never would have 1059 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 2: helped me fight, so that you said, Oh, I just 1060 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 2: really I didn't always feel this way. It's not like 1061 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:06,640 Speaker 2: you were in college and you would have helped me 1062 00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:07,600 Speaker 2: if I was getting beat up. 1063 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,760 Speaker 3: I didn't say that. I said, but that's not myself. 1064 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:16,440 Speaker 2: Original thing that started this was Karen saying I'm too pretty, precious, 1065 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:18,880 Speaker 2: that's true. That's what I'm saying. You're going, Yeah, I 1066 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 2: started feeling that. I'm saying she she always felt that way. 1067 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 3: That that is a one hundred percent true statement. You 1068 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 3: know who you married. 1069 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 4: I know I'm not. 1070 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not, don't.

They worked right across 1307 01:02:58,080 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 4: the hallway from us. 1308 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:06,600 Speaker 2: Oh they still do Unlike Game Theory episode twenty eight 1309 01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:09,520 Speaker 2: forty eight, gym plant, the poe was was the man 1310 01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:10,480 Speaker 2: of the gym a plant? 1311 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:12,120 Speaker 4: Oh wait, I said this already. 1312 01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 2: What What am I doing? 1313 01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:13,960 Speaker 5: What am I doing? 1314 01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:16,520 Speaker 4: I think were trying to go to the next episode. 1315 01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 2: That's what the last episode of the week is stopping 1316 01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 2: Scott net It's episode twenty eight forty nine. All right, 1317 01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:30,640 Speaker 2: we got six comments. Nick Dahl says, hardest banter intro 1318 01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:34,960 Speaker 2: music I've ever heard. Todd says for starters. Nick Grant's 1319 01:03:34,960 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 2: album Sunday Dinner was one of my favorites of twenty 1320 01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:40,600 Speaker 2: twenty three if you haven't already check it out. It 1321 01:03:40,680 --> 01:03:42,840 Speaker 2: makes sense to me that Nick said this because in part, 1322 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 2: I think he's speaking from a place of experience. He's 1323 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,440 Speaker 2: a talented of a rapper that there is, but he's 1324 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 2: not experienced a ton of commercial success. The two artists 1325 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:54,120 Speaker 2: he mentioned, Marcus Clay and Ruben Vincent, have been put 1326 01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 2: on by industry vets over the past couple of years. 1327 01:03:57,040 --> 01:04:00,200 Speaker 2: Both were on Dreamville Festival stage last year. Rubens all 1328 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 2: the Native is down with Knife Wonders label Jamler. 1329 01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:08,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think we may have seen No, it wasn't Ruben. 1330 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:12,080 Speaker 2: But we saw somebody from Dreamville perform at Looped, performed 1331 01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:14,680 Speaker 2: at one of the Hornets Games. Shout out to the 1332 01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:18,120 Speaker 2: Charlotte Boys representing He's gotten some really good looks over 1333 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 2: the past year or so. But I think it's really 1334 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:21,880 Speaker 2: tough for lyricists to get on in the way that 1335 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,200 Speaker 2: Nick Grant is a vision because I don't think there's 1336 01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:25,920 Speaker 2: a mainstream appetite for those artists. 1337 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:27,520 Speaker 4: Take Jid for instance, He's as. 1338 01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:30,080 Speaker 2: Talented as a lyricist as there is right now also 1339 01:04:30,120 --> 01:04:33,200 Speaker 2: a Dreamville artist. He has an incredible solo catalog and 1340 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 2: his work with Spillage Village is great, but he hasn't 1341 01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:38,440 Speaker 2: gotten attraction that I believe he's due. It's really not 1342 01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 2: a reflection of the OG's embracing these young artists as 1343 01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 2: much as the reflection of the broader consumer base. I 1344 01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:46,200 Speaker 2: think artists like Currency and Techno are perfect examples of 1345 01:04:46,240 --> 01:04:49,360 Speaker 2: what success can look like for lyricists these days. Build 1346 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:51,560 Speaker 2: a following, keep them fair with music, show up in 1347 01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:53,200 Speaker 2: the towns to perform, rents and repeat. 1348 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:57,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, for a lot of artists, particularly with the Internet, 1349 01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,400 Speaker 1: which is a good thing, and people being able to 1350 01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 1: put their stuff directly to their fans and build a 1351 01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:05,440 Speaker 1: fan base, a lot of artists make money from like 1352 01:05:05,560 --> 01:05:08,840 Speaker 1: their personal tours and selling products and things like that. 1353 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:15,440 Speaker 1: And I think, you know, people underestimate the the thing 1354 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:19,400 Speaker 1: of super serving your audience, because super souff in your 1355 01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,800 Speaker 1: audience matters, and they'll be loyal and dedicated, and they'll 1356 01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:25,640 Speaker 1: tell other people, which possibly they'll be loyal and dedicated, 1357 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:29,080 Speaker 1: and then it grows from there. The thing is a 1358 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:30,960 Speaker 1: lot of times that Roger has said does not believe 1359 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:34,000 Speaker 1: this a lot of times by the time anybody recognizes 1360 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 1: you or come to see you, that times you don't 1361 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 1: need their help. 1362 01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:39,440 Speaker 3: And so that's what happened. 1363 01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:41,760 Speaker 1: A lot of times these people take years, sometimes decade 1364 01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:44,240 Speaker 1: to build their audience up, and then when they hit 1365 01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 1: the scene out of a sudden for the vast majority 1366 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:51,120 Speaker 1: of people, some black people from majority America, is they brand. 1367 01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:53,040 Speaker 3: New that you know, we've just now seen them? Why 1368 01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 3: are we known about them? 1369 01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 1: But they literally have been on the ground for decades, 1370 01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,960 Speaker 1: But prior to that point, because they don't quote unquote, fine, 1371 01:06:00,040 --> 01:06:01,640 Speaker 1: I need to start that. Particularly if you get somebody 1372 01:06:01,640 --> 01:06:03,959 Speaker 1: that's well polished, has strange, they come. 1373 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 3: On and they just hit the ground running. 1374 01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 1: A lot of times they've been doing that shit forever 1375 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:10,080 Speaker 1: before anybody quote unquote knew their name. 1376 01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1377 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:17,320 Speaker 2: I think the other part is you don't necessarily like, 1378 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:22,760 Speaker 2: what what does success look like for you? Is the 1379 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 2: main question, because for a lot of these artists, it's like, oh, 1380 01:06:27,200 --> 01:06:32,840 Speaker 2: success is the most money, success is the most attention, 1381 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 2: success is Kendrick J. 1382 01:06:35,400 --> 01:06:38,600 Speaker 4: Cole whatever. And it's hard for me to say that. 1383 01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:42,800 Speaker 2: Lyricists aren't mainstream, there's no appetite for them when Kendrick J. 1384 01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:48,160 Speaker 2: Cole to me are lyricists and there they sell, they 1385 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:52,640 Speaker 2: get awards and their famous and rich. 1386 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 4: Like So, I don't know. 1387 01:06:54,600 --> 01:06:56,440 Speaker 2: I don't know that I would say it as simple 1388 01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:59,600 Speaker 2: as just like, yeah, you know, people don't have an 1389 01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 2: appetite for it. That being said, people don't have an 1390 01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 2: appetite for all kinds of stuff, right, Like, there's a 1391 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:10,560 Speaker 2: lot of rappers who are not going to make it 1392 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 2: or be mainstream or crossover like that, just simply by 1393 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:20,120 Speaker 2: the nature that they're just not those type of acts 1394 01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:23,280 Speaker 2: and they don't and they're not lyricists, and they're not 1395 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 2: like they have all the stuff on paper. 1396 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:28,320 Speaker 4: It just ain't working. There's kind of no rhyme or 1397 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 4: reason for it. 1398 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 2: You know. 1399 01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:32,040 Speaker 4: Uh, there's a lot of women in hip hop now. 1400 01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:33,200 Speaker 2: There used to be a time where we were like, 1401 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 2: there can only be one woman, don't nobody want to 1402 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,560 Speaker 2: hear from women. That turned out to be wrong, and 1403 01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:40,440 Speaker 2: over time we got a lot of women that of 1404 01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 2: all different stripes that people have an appetite for, all 1405 01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:47,440 Speaker 2: different skill levels, all types of different uh you know, 1406 01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:52,160 Speaker 2: styles and subject matter. So yeah, I don't know. I 1407 01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:56,960 Speaker 2: feel like sometimes lyricists breakthrough sometimes they don't. The main 1408 01:07:57,160 --> 01:07:59,360 Speaker 2: issue in hip hop, I think for rappers like that 1409 01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:02,440 Speaker 2: is how much money it costs to be like to 1410 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:06,720 Speaker 2: get like production, to get you know, radio played. That 1411 01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:11,360 Speaker 2: stuff probably hinders the lyricist, backpack type rappers more now 1412 01:08:11,560 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 2: than it did even. 1413 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:13,000 Speaker 4: Back in the day. 1414 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, because the gatekeepers matter because before you right now, 1415 01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:19,639 Speaker 1: it's so many different avenues and so many different places, 1416 01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 1: and so people are scattered everyone when it comes to 1417 01:08:22,040 --> 01:08:24,880 Speaker 1: consumption in the music. We don't have like one, two, three, 1418 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,479 Speaker 1: you know, four five different locations, but these are the spots. 1419 01:08:27,840 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no radio isn't what radio used to be. 1420 01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:36,800 Speaker 2: MTV doesn't play music videos. They're like, there's no like, 1421 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 2: there's very there's tentpole moments where like a Nicki Minaj 1422 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:44,600 Speaker 2: or I'm not Nicki Minada, or a Cardi B and 1423 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 2: Megan thee Stallion drop wop and it doesn't matter that 1424 01:08:47,920 --> 01:08:51,200 Speaker 2: that's being that's on YouTube. We understand this is a 1425 01:08:51,320 --> 01:08:54,080 Speaker 2: tentpole moment, but there's a lot less of those now 1426 01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:58,759 Speaker 2: because you just don't have one person saying one station 1427 01:08:59,040 --> 01:09:00,840 Speaker 2: one being like this this is the hip hop you 1428 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:05,559 Speaker 2: should listen to, right But uh, And also I agree 1429 01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:08,479 Speaker 2: with you that success could look like currency and people 1430 01:09:08,560 --> 01:09:11,439 Speaker 2: like that. But once again, like I said, I don't 1431 01:09:11,479 --> 01:09:13,840 Speaker 2: know that that's a function of them being lyricists as 1432 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:16,360 Speaker 2: much as that's a function of them being independent artists, 1433 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:20,040 Speaker 2: which you could be a non lyricist and do what 1434 01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:22,120 Speaker 2: they do if you choose to do it right. 1435 01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:23,800 Speaker 3: And like you said, what does success look like? 1436 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:26,800 Speaker 1: Because you know everybody assuming like you say, success is 1437 01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:28,760 Speaker 1: like these big people touring all over the country and 1438 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: things like that. But you can be an independent artist 1439 01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,160 Speaker 1: and to out of the country. Maybe the budget might 1440 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:34,600 Speaker 1: not be as big, you might not be able to 1441 01:09:34,680 --> 01:09:37,040 Speaker 1: do the same things, but you can do the same things. 1442 01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 1: In their mind, they might be successful. Other people might 1443 01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:41,760 Speaker 1: be looking like you're not successful. But like you say, 1444 01:09:41,800 --> 01:09:43,000 Speaker 1: who determines that for them? 1445 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:43,800 Speaker 6: Right? 1446 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:48,479 Speaker 4: But uh yeah, good luck to those artists and stuff. 1447 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:49,320 Speaker 4: I'm gonna check them out. 1448 01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:51,760 Speaker 2: I'll added them to my list because of y'all talking 1449 01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:56,280 Speaker 2: about them, and we'll check them out. Uh, let's see. 1450 01:09:57,120 --> 01:09:59,559 Speaker 2: The next comment is from Ann who says just rise 1451 01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:02,800 Speaker 2: that as a mixed race person, my ancestors were DEI supporters, 1452 01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:06,800 Speaker 2: that is all. I don't think that's what they called 1453 01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:10,360 Speaker 2: them back then. They called them the N word lovers. 1454 01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:15,719 Speaker 1: Gina says, they saying. Gina says it's great. 1455 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:19,320 Speaker 2: Uber East has taken Snap, Instacart, door Dash takes some 1456 01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:22,400 Speaker 2: benefits payments as well. A lot of disabled people I know, 1457 01:10:22,560 --> 01:10:26,040 Speaker 2: me included, use food delivery services. This transportation can be 1458 01:10:26,120 --> 01:10:29,240 Speaker 2: expensive and difficult to get. Folks on benefits deserve to 1459 01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:32,160 Speaker 2: be able to use these services too. Lunch dealing has 1460 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:34,639 Speaker 2: gotten people fired. It can be a morale killer too. 1461 01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,040 Speaker 2: I know I was living when I returned from leave 1462 01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 2: for work and discovered someone had taken all my public's honey. 1463 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:43,000 Speaker 4: You know how expensive honey is and it was the 1464 01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:44,240 Speaker 4: green Wise con too. 1465 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:47,400 Speaker 3: Honey is high honey.

Honestly. Of all things that 1471 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 4: is the one that is the most believable thing that 1472 01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:05,960 Speaker 4: has thinged lately. 1473 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:11,240 Speaker 2: Is nick y'all knew going powder keg. She's so desperate 1474 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 2: for Megan not to reach number one on the charts. 1475 01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 2: She's literally asking her barbs to stream being Shapiro's rap song. 1476 01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:21,040 Speaker 4: She had absolutely no chill at this point. 1477 01:11:21,120 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 2: Her stands are as unhinged docks and people even revealing 1478 01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:26,880 Speaker 2: the address of Megan's mother's grave, even though I don't 1479 01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:29,000 Speaker 2: think Megan should respond to this level of crazy. If 1480 01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,120 Speaker 2: it was me, I would have run up on Nicki 1481 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:34,320 Speaker 2: like Cardi did. Nicki is clearly someone who has never 1482 01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:38,120 Speaker 2: had her ass within the shows. I've had my lunch 1483 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:40,479 Speaker 2: stolen from work before, over twenty years ago, and I'm 1484 01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:44,720 Speaker 2: still pissed off, So I understand that man's anger. Yeah, 1485 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:49,120 Speaker 2: I'm be honest. I don't know about rolling up on Nicki, 1486 01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:52,320 Speaker 2: as I know the internet is like ha ha ha 1487 01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 2: her husband, but from my understanding, Buddy is affiliated and 1488 01:11:56,760 --> 01:12:00,560 Speaker 2: not really the one to fuck with. You know, I 1489 01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 2: know they tried to run up on Offset like I 1490 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:05,400 Speaker 2: think that has as much to do with people just 1491 01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:07,760 Speaker 2: being trying to stay the fuck out of it as 1492 01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:10,760 Speaker 2: anything else is you know, who knows this dude is 1493 01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:15,080 Speaker 2: capable of right? Appia says far right governments are obviously 1494 01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:19,160 Speaker 2: terrible for LGBT plus people, but this Italian father did 1495 01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 2: it on his own. He started abusing his son when 1496 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:23,800 Speaker 2: he was fourteen. He is now eighteen. So four years 1497 01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:26,560 Speaker 2: ago there was another government in Italy. I think that 1498 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:29,840 Speaker 2: the article throw in the government at the end was misleading, 1499 01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:32,479 Speaker 2: and at least the laws are still like that that 1500 01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:35,519 Speaker 2: the parents were punished. I'm sure there are other cases 1501 01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:38,960 Speaker 2: where it had an impact, but not here. Here's why 1502 01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:39,880 Speaker 2: I will say. 1503 01:12:39,760 --> 01:12:47,040 Speaker 4: About that Appia. Okay, one, I don't think it's misleading. 1504 01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:47,760 Speaker 4: And here's why. 1505 01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:51,800 Speaker 2: Because far right governments don't come out of nowhere. So 1506 01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:55,400 Speaker 2: the sentiment that brought that far right government to power 1507 01:12:55,960 --> 01:13:01,519 Speaker 2: definitely started more than four years ago. Yes, And while 1508 01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:04,360 Speaker 2: that they may not have been winning the office of 1509 01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:08,680 Speaker 2: whatever offices they ended up winning in the election, the 1510 01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:11,439 Speaker 2: voters were still there. The sentiment was still there. If 1511 01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:14,960 Speaker 2: it was forty nine percent to fifty one percent, that's 1512 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:16,840 Speaker 2: still a lot of people who are affected by that 1513 01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:21,280 Speaker 2: rhetoric led that way. We have people here who are 1514 01:13:21,560 --> 01:13:26,120 Speaker 2: you know, far right Christians that have fought literally for 1515 01:13:26,479 --> 01:13:31,640 Speaker 2: decades to get abortion overturned. That fight didn't start like 1516 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 2: we don't start counting the number for like, oh, well, 1517 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 2: they did win with Donald Trump and that then they 1518 01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:39,719 Speaker 2: got it overturned four years later. That's not how that works. 1519 01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:42,080 Speaker 4: It's like they've been trying to do that since nineteen sixty. 1520 01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:46,080 Speaker 2: So they're people who vote that way, who subscribed to that, 1521 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:51,080 Speaker 2: who have filled who have experienced and lived in that 1522 01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:55,200 Speaker 2: silo of hate, who are like doing stuff to people 1523 01:13:55,280 --> 01:13:58,960 Speaker 2: the whole time. And so I don't I don't feel 1524 01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:01,479 Speaker 2: like the article is saying like the government made him 1525 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 2: do this as much as it was saying it's related 1526 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 2: to the fact that people like this felt embolded and empowered, 1527 01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:11,680 Speaker 2: and especially when it's like the majority or a lot 1528 01:14:11,760 --> 01:14:17,519 Speaker 2: of that abuse seen to happen even when uh as 1529 01:14:18,840 --> 01:14:20,960 Speaker 2: even as that kid got older, you know what I mean, 1530 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:24,680 Speaker 2: because like the abuse seemed not to be like a 1531 01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:27,240 Speaker 2: moment where it's like, oh, that happened, and then uh 1532 01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:29,759 Speaker 2: and then you know that was unrelated and then it stopped, 1533 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 2: you know. So I don't know. I think I think 1534 01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 2: the ship is related and that people and governments aren't 1535 01:14:34,160 --> 01:14:38,000 Speaker 2: as neat and and finite as like to yesterday. It 1536 01:14:38,080 --> 01:14:41,200 Speaker 2: wasn't bigoted, then the election happened, and today is bigoted. 1537 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:42,439 Speaker 2: So that's what I think. 1538 01:14:43,920 --> 01:14:44,000 Speaker 1: Uh. 1539 01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:48,679 Speaker 2: The pole oh wait, I'm sorry.

And usually when 1962 01:35:06,560 --> 01:35:10,040 Speaker 9: I'm listening to a podcast, I paused before the uh 1963 01:35:11,080 --> 01:35:13,680 Speaker 9: the server. They come to the car and give me 1964 01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:16,680 Speaker 9: my food, but they kind of popped up on me 1965 01:35:16,840 --> 01:35:20,880 Speaker 9: randomly because I was also looking for something in my 1966 01:35:20,960 --> 01:35:25,519 Speaker 9: little unrest singing, and then they just popped up on me. 1967 01:35:25,560 --> 01:35:27,479 Speaker 9: And I didn't pose the podcast. And right when I 1968 01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:30,519 Speaker 9: was rolling up up down you ride, you said, and 1969 01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:33,720 Speaker 9: this nigga likes incest.

Correct, But I 1980 01:36:16,560 --> 01:36:19,479 Speaker 2: think in context it's fine. I'm fine with it. I 1981 01:36:19,840 --> 01:36:22,479 Speaker 2: don't mind. But out of context, I could see somebody 1982 01:36:22,560 --> 01:36:24,479 Speaker 2: just hearing like the answers from like Guess. 1983 01:36:24,280 --> 01:36:26,800 Speaker 3: The Race and be like, oh, hell, no, the hell 1984 01:36:26,880 --> 01:36:27,439 Speaker 3: you listening to? 1985 01:36:27,680 --> 01:36:33,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, like you absolutely, we cannot allow this to happen. Okay, 1986 01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:35,840 Speaker 2: this one, I'm not sure if it's a voicemail. It 1987 01:36:35,920 --> 01:36:39,040 Speaker 2: says for Monday. Like I said, Skype is doing something weird. 1988 01:36:40,200 --> 01:36:43,479 Speaker 2: Let's see what these are. And I don't know that person. 1989 01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:47,519 Speaker 10: Hey it's toy from technically from Charlotte, but I live 1990 01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:50,640 Speaker 10: in that you're playing now. So I was calling, and 1991 01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:54,000 Speaker 10: I'm sorry on a week behind. I was calling because 1992 01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:58,320 Speaker 10: I caught the episode you all came out with last Wednesday, 1993 01:36:58,760 --> 01:37:01,479 Speaker 10: and that we're talking about the lady that was appointed 1994 01:37:01,520 --> 01:37:06,240 Speaker 10: to the school board. That's a fucking quack And you know, like, 1995 01:37:06,320 --> 01:37:08,720 Speaker 10: how are people like this even appointed or voted in 1996 01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:14,599 Speaker 10: that type of thing. So I currently live in Paulden County, Georgia, 1997 01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:19,400 Speaker 10: and I'm hoping to run for school boards at some 1998 01:37:19,520 --> 01:37:22,080 Speaker 10: point if we're still here, Like my husband is looking 1999 01:37:22,120 --> 01:37:24,920 Speaker 10: for work in other areas. So anyway, so when I 2000 01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:28,200 Speaker 10: went to look at who is in the position for 2001 01:37:28,360 --> 01:37:31,840 Speaker 10: like my part of the county, it's this mediocre white 2002 01:37:31,920 --> 01:37:38,320 Speaker 10: man that works at a funeral home. I mean, I 2003 01:37:38,400 --> 01:37:41,080 Speaker 10: want to say, he may have children that go to like, 2004 01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:43,479 Speaker 10: you know, Paulden County schools or whatever, so maybe like 2005 01:37:43,600 --> 01:37:47,680 Speaker 10: that's his stake in it. But he doesn't have a 2006 01:37:47,720 --> 01:37:50,760 Speaker 10: background of education. It's never like worked in schools, has 2007 01:37:50,800 --> 01:37:55,280 Speaker 10: never worked with children, like he just works at a mortuary. 2008 01:37:56,640 --> 01:37:59,600 Speaker 10: And you know, here I am, I'm currently getting my 2009 01:37:59,680 --> 01:38:03,720 Speaker 10: master in public administration I used to teach. I'm in 2010 01:38:03,800 --> 01:38:07,680 Speaker 10: social work now I work with high risk youth and families. Like, 2011 01:38:08,640 --> 01:38:13,439 Speaker 10: to be completely honest, I'm overqualified to be on the 2012 01:38:13,479 --> 01:38:16,800 Speaker 10: school board in discounting. And when I looked it up further, 2013 01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:21,160 Speaker 10: he actually ran unopposed, like no one else wanted to run. 2014 01:38:21,280 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 10: He was just pretty much automatically given the seat. And 2015 01:38:25,520 --> 01:38:29,080 Speaker 10: these are the people running to schools, Like these people 2016 01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:36,760 Speaker 10: just sign up and they just get in Hey it's 2017 01:38:36,840 --> 01:38:39,599 Speaker 10: toy again. Sorry I got cut off. This is gonna 2018 01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:43,000 Speaker 10: be my last one, I promised, So it just I 2019 01:38:43,160 --> 01:38:46,760 Speaker 10: just I'm saying all of this to say that it's 2020 01:38:46,960 --> 01:38:52,600 Speaker 10: very important that we're in the note with local elections 2021 01:38:52,640 --> 01:38:57,200 Speaker 10: and what's going on locally, because it's so easy for 2022 01:38:57,400 --> 01:39:04,439 Speaker 10: these crazy Republicans, crazy TikTokers, you know whatever, to get 2023 01:39:04,479 --> 01:39:09,120 Speaker 10: into these positions because no one's saying attention anyway. And 2024 01:39:09,320 --> 01:39:12,519 Speaker 10: I'm hoping that this is a call for a lot 2025 01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:17,360 Speaker 10: of us to get involved in our local politics because 2026 01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:21,839 Speaker 10: it's not fair to our local communities, our schools, especially 2027 01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:24,479 Speaker 10: so that the people that are in charge of making 2028 01:39:24,520 --> 01:39:30,600 Speaker 10: decisions have no background, no education, no experience whatsoever. And 2029 01:39:32,320 --> 01:39:35,960 Speaker 10: I mean it's literally the reason why, you know, education wise, 2030 01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:39,360 Speaker 10: the United States is behind so many of the country, 2031 01:39:39,560 --> 01:39:43,200 Speaker 10: Like why are we appointing and allowing just any and 2032 01:39:43,360 --> 01:39:48,040 Speaker 10: everybody to make decisions about the schools. But in order 2033 01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:51,280 Speaker 10: to become an actual teacher, you like, damn there need 2034 01:39:51,360 --> 01:39:53,880 Speaker 10: a master and they still don't even pay for that. 2035 01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:57,559 Speaker 10: Like it's just I don't know, it just sounds really 2036 01:39:57,680 --> 01:40:01,360 Speaker 10: crazy that the teachers have like masters. I know some 2037 01:40:01,520 --> 01:40:06,519 Speaker 10: teachers that have like doctorates and PhD. But the people 2038 01:40:06,600 --> 01:40:09,120 Speaker 10: that are like making decisions about the schools barely of 2039 01:40:09,240 --> 01:40:13,559 Speaker 10: high school diplomas. Like it's just really shocking. So yeah, 2040 01:40:13,560 --> 01:40:16,000 Speaker 10: I'm just glad that you all spoke about it. I'm 2041 01:40:16,040 --> 01:40:19,040 Speaker 10: hoping to be able to be involved with decision making 2042 01:40:19,200 --> 01:40:23,000 Speaker 10: in school as soon, so look out for me. 2043 01:40:23,439 --> 01:40:29,439 Speaker 2: Bye. Yeah, and now Toy is cool. I interviewed her 2044 01:40:29,880 --> 01:40:35,120 Speaker 2: on Medium Top forty five. She decided to bloom and yeah, 2045 01:40:35,160 --> 01:40:37,400 Speaker 2: I know she would be a great person to work 2046 01:40:37,560 --> 01:40:41,000 Speaker 2: in those spaces and get on the school board and stuff, 2047 01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:45,680 Speaker 2: just because it's so we need it and it's not 2048 01:40:45,840 --> 01:40:48,240 Speaker 2: something that we can look past and just hope works out. 2049 01:40:48,760 --> 01:40:48,920 Speaker 3: Right. 2050 01:40:50,439 --> 01:40:52,840 Speaker 2: We got another one. This seems to be from Gin. 2051 01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:55,320 Speaker 2: Hopefully Skype got it right. 2052 01:40:55,479 --> 01:41:00,439 Speaker 12: Hey, Rod and Karen, It's Jen. I'm listening to the 2053 01:41:00,600 --> 01:41:04,599 Speaker 12: episodes from the week and this actually might have been 2054 01:41:04,640 --> 01:41:08,599 Speaker 12: last week, honestly, but I'm still cacackling over the Stanley 2055 01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:14,800 Speaker 12: Cup Karen talking about hockey. I was dieing that was 2056 01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:18,600 Speaker 12: so funny, because you know, I've heard, I've heard the 2057 01:41:18,680 --> 01:41:21,479 Speaker 12: drama and I think we all have now, But I 2058 01:41:21,600 --> 01:41:24,000 Speaker 12: definitely my mind does not initially go to sports, so 2059 01:41:24,080 --> 01:41:27,080 Speaker 12: that cracked me up. But I will say that my 2060 01:41:27,640 --> 01:41:30,280 Speaker 12: only New Year's resolution this year is to become a 2061 01:41:30,320 --> 01:41:34,080 Speaker 12: sports girly. And it's funny because I was gonna start 2062 01:41:34,120 --> 01:41:35,840 Speaker 12: with some games over here in LA and I had 2063 01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:38,880 Speaker 12: all these big plans to get like those bleeds to 2064 01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:42,479 Speaker 12: see the Lakers play the Hornets on February fifth. Turns 2065 01:41:42,479 --> 01:41:47,040 Speaker 12: out that game is in North Carolina. But I was 2066 01:41:47,080 --> 01:41:50,040 Speaker 12: trying to support like a team I might actually care about, 2067 01:41:50,080 --> 01:41:51,760 Speaker 12: and since I'm from North Carolina, I was like, that 2068 01:41:51,840 --> 01:41:54,360 Speaker 12: could be fun. My friends are like, girl, this game 2069 01:41:54,600 --> 01:41:57,360 Speaker 12: is not here, so you might be going to something 2070 01:41:57,400 --> 01:41:59,880 Speaker 12: at the end of the year. Apparently the Wizards are trash. 2071 01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:02,360 Speaker 12: Their their games are like fifty bucks, so I said, 2072 01:42:02,400 --> 01:42:04,160 Speaker 12: we might go to that, get some those leads, and 2073 01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:06,160 Speaker 12: try and move down. So I'll let you know how 2074 01:42:06,240 --> 01:42:08,599 Speaker 12: my sports journey goes. But yeah, I was. I've been 2075 01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:12,400 Speaker 12: enjoying the episodes this week. I loved your episode with 2076 01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:16,960 Speaker 12: Brandon Collins shout out. I really really really loved Origin. 2077 01:42:17,040 --> 01:42:20,000 Speaker 12: I loved I love Ava, and I watched support her 2078 01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:23,960 Speaker 12: and anything she does. But I didn't well, I'll say this. 2079 01:42:24,120 --> 01:42:25,519 Speaker 12: You all were talking about how it was too long 2080 01:42:25,680 --> 01:42:26,600 Speaker 12: and this and that, but I. 2081 01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:27,960 Speaker 5: Didn't think that. 2082 01:42:28,160 --> 01:42:30,240 Speaker 12: But then I realized that my friend had a screener 2083 01:42:30,840 --> 01:42:34,040 Speaker 12: and it was a DVD and I had the DVD player, 2084 01:42:34,080 --> 01:42:35,360 Speaker 12: so I had to bring it over there and we 2085 01:42:35,439 --> 01:42:37,080 Speaker 12: had to split it between Like I think I was 2086 01:42:37,120 --> 01:42:40,920 Speaker 12: going home for Christmas, and so I think we split it. 2087 01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:43,439 Speaker 12: Like I watched like the first half like two weeks 2088 01:42:43,479 --> 01:42:45,479 Speaker 12: before I watched the second half. But that might be 2089 01:42:45,520 --> 01:42:46,760 Speaker 12: why I didn't think it was that long. 2090 01:42:46,840 --> 01:42:48,120 Speaker 10: But I really really loved it. 2091 01:42:48,360 --> 01:42:52,720 Speaker 12: You know, I love me some John bay rensal so 2092 01:42:56,320 --> 01:42:58,120 Speaker 12: I knew I was gonna get caught off. I was 2093 01:42:58,160 --> 01:42:59,920 Speaker 12: talking about my white King John bay. 2094 01:43:02,040 --> 01:43:02,200 Speaker 6: Yeah. 2095 01:43:02,240 --> 01:43:06,040 Speaker 12: I really loved the origin. I really loved the ending song. 2096 01:43:06,800 --> 01:43:08,920 Speaker 12: And I ended up watching a couple of interviews after 2097 01:43:09,120 --> 01:43:12,760 Speaker 12: I saw the movie, and that songwriter is an Indigenous 2098 01:43:13,160 --> 01:43:16,400 Speaker 12: Mari songwriter for New Zealand. So it's just cool to 2099 01:43:16,439 --> 01:43:19,880 Speaker 12: see how her intention our intentions are threaded throughout the 2100 01:43:20,040 --> 01:43:23,880 Speaker 12: movie and the process. Yeah, and they were talking about 2101 01:43:23,880 --> 01:43:25,880 Speaker 12: how the budget was really small for that, and I 2102 01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:27,519 Speaker 12: just was like amazed at what she was able to 2103 01:43:27,560 --> 01:43:31,360 Speaker 12: do because it just seemed really incredibly done to me. Honestly, 2104 01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:33,960 Speaker 12: your conversation made me want to watch it again. But 2105 01:43:34,040 --> 01:43:35,800 Speaker 12: I will say I feel like I'm the target demo, 2106 01:43:36,040 --> 01:43:39,200 Speaker 12: like mid thirties black Woman, But I didn't really see 2107 01:43:39,240 --> 01:43:41,080 Speaker 12: it promoted until late so that might have been part 2108 01:43:41,120 --> 01:43:44,160 Speaker 12: of why it didn't get as much buzz. But yeah, 2109 01:43:44,360 --> 01:43:47,439 Speaker 12: I really liked it. I also was thinking about your 2110 01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:52,360 Speaker 12: conversation about most Deef's comments on Drake, and I'll say like, 2111 01:43:53,200 --> 01:43:57,960 Speaker 12: I'm more once again the target demo for Drake, so 2112 01:43:58,080 --> 01:43:59,920 Speaker 12: I know more of stuff. And also most Deep hasn't 2113 01:44:00,040 --> 01:44:02,360 Speaker 12: these music in a while. But honestly, his comments just 2114 01:44:02,439 --> 01:44:04,439 Speaker 12: made me think, like, as a creative, you just have 2115 01:44:04,560 --> 01:44:07,200 Speaker 12: to keep going because if people are out here hating 2116 01:44:07,280 --> 01:44:10,840 Speaker 12: on Drake and he's selling so well, and like people 2117 01:44:10,840 --> 01:44:13,040 Speaker 12: will hate on Beyonce, they'll hate on Taylor, they hit whatever. 2118 01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:15,080 Speaker 12: Like you, it's just a good reminder to you, like 2119 01:44:15,160 --> 01:44:18,240 Speaker 12: you could be the top of the top, and if 2120 01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:20,880 Speaker 12: you let comments bother you, like it won't really matter 2121 01:44:20,920 --> 01:44:22,920 Speaker 12: if you don't have confidence in yourself. So that's kind 2122 01:44:22,960 --> 01:44:25,960 Speaker 12: of what that whole conversation just made me think of. 2123 01:44:26,080 --> 01:44:27,880 Speaker 12: It's like you really have to just be very confident 2124 01:44:27,920 --> 01:44:30,360 Speaker 12: in yourself because Drake is doing well and like, none 2125 01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:33,160 Speaker 12: of these things should bother him, and they do. I mean, 2126 01:44:33,200 --> 01:44:35,240 Speaker 12: he ain't bothering him as much as they bothering Nikki, 2127 01:44:36,200 --> 01:44:37,840 Speaker 12: but they're still bothering him. 2128 01:44:37,880 --> 01:44:40,519 Speaker 5: You know, your girl Nikki is out of control. 2129 01:44:40,680 --> 01:44:43,280 Speaker 12: But yeah, and when people like Kat Williams go off, 2130 01:44:43,320 --> 01:44:46,200 Speaker 12: it's like, child, you just gotta you gotta do what 2131 01:44:46,280 --> 01:44:48,360 Speaker 12: you gotta do.

My 2214 01:49:54,240 --> 01:49:57,000 Speaker 2: wife and I have been talking about this upcoming election 2215 01:49:57,200 --> 01:49:59,320 Speaker 2: a lot because of how important it is and what 2216 01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:01,640 Speaker 2: it means for in our family. We are resolute in 2217 01:50:01,720 --> 01:50:03,800 Speaker 2: the same way you both are, that Biden and the 2218 01:50:03,880 --> 01:50:06,439 Speaker 2: Democrats are the answer if we want any form of progress. 2219 01:50:06,760 --> 01:50:09,879 Speaker 2: And it's frustrating to see the first time voters dismissed 2220 01:50:09,880 --> 01:50:12,439 Speaker 2: all the things Biden had Harris administration has done for 2221 01:50:12,439 --> 01:50:17,880 Speaker 2: the last four years. Yeah, and they're trying, like they're 2222 01:50:17,920 --> 01:50:20,880 Speaker 2: in South Carolina campaigning and stuff, and they're doing a 2223 01:50:21,200 --> 01:50:23,880 Speaker 2: I think they're doing a good job of reminding and 2224 01:50:24,800 --> 01:50:27,479 Speaker 2: and and just making people aware of the promises that 2225 01:50:27,600 --> 01:50:30,519 Speaker 2: they made and that were kept and if those that 2226 01:50:31,240 --> 01:50:33,880 Speaker 2: anything that was not able to be done, why it 2227 01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:34,880 Speaker 2: wasn't able to be done. 2228 01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:35,360 Speaker 3: Wow. 2229 01:50:35,880 --> 01:50:40,240 Speaker 2: The Daily had a great episode about this yesterday. The 2230 01:50:40,360 --> 01:50:45,120 Speaker 2: problem is the negativity, the pessimism, and just the the 2231 01:50:45,840 --> 01:50:48,559 Speaker 2: we got our own sets of facts of the Internet 2232 01:50:48,800 --> 01:50:51,960 Speaker 2: is just so strong. And it's why I'm just ignoring 2233 01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:55,360 Speaker 2: social media. That's who. If social media is why we lose, 2234 01:50:55,479 --> 01:50:57,400 Speaker 2: then we lose. I don't know what to say, but 2235 01:50:57,520 --> 01:50:59,840 Speaker 2: it's not a place that's healthy where you can like 2236 01:51:00,120 --> 01:51:04,000 Speaker 2: inject facts into something and it changes. People just are 2237 01:51:04,040 --> 01:51:06,639 Speaker 2: obsessed with certain narratives and it really won't fucking matter 2238 01:51:06,680 --> 01:51:10,080 Speaker 2: what you say. I'm thirty five, my wife is thirty seven. 2239 01:51:10,160 --> 01:51:12,880 Speaker 2: We have two kids, twenty one and sixteen. We're all 2240 01:51:12,960 --> 01:51:14,960 Speaker 2: on TikTok, and we work hard to make sure our 2241 01:51:15,040 --> 01:51:18,120 Speaker 2: girls have a good understanding of the political spectrum causing 2242 01:51:18,160 --> 01:51:21,720 Speaker 2: effect in historical significance. The scariest part that increases my 2243 01:51:21,800 --> 01:51:24,600 Speaker 2: wife's anxiety is the number of popular creators who are 2244 01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:27,959 Speaker 2: actively targeting a young, uninformed generation with false information. 2245 01:51:28,240 --> 01:51:29,280 Speaker 4: That is what I was just saying. 2246 01:51:30,160 --> 01:51:32,040 Speaker 2: I remember a few months ago you all talked about 2247 01:51:32,120 --> 01:51:34,960 Speaker 2: No Child Left Behind and the lasting impact that had. 2248 01:51:35,040 --> 01:51:38,000 Speaker 2: As a geriatric millennial, we are some of the last 2249 01:51:38,040 --> 01:51:41,920 Speaker 2: ones not impacted by that major educational change. As a result, 2250 01:51:42,040 --> 01:51:44,639 Speaker 2: so many of these younger voters have no actual understanding, 2251 01:51:44,680 --> 01:51:48,160 Speaker 2: their knowledge of civics or how the government truly works, right, Yeah, 2252 01:51:48,280 --> 01:51:51,200 Speaker 2: Karen was talking about this. Because of this, they have 2253 01:51:51,280 --> 01:51:53,680 Speaker 2: a lot of wild expectations of what the president can 2254 01:51:53,800 --> 01:51:54,200 Speaker 2: and can't do. 2255 01:51:54,439 --> 01:51:56,960 Speaker 3: Yes, he's not a king. They don't understand that it 2256 01:51:57,080 --> 01:51:59,360 Speaker 3: doesn't make sense and a very very. 2257 01:51:59,320 --> 01:52:02,040 Speaker 2: Low understand and how everything we are dealing with now 2258 01:52:02,600 --> 01:52:06,200 Speaker 2: is based on long term consequences of colonialism and white supremacy. 2259 01:52:06,560 --> 01:52:08,960 Speaker 2: They also expect for the DNC to just give us 2260 01:52:09,080 --> 01:52:11,960 Speaker 2: new and better options, minimizing the reality that if we 2261 01:52:12,040 --> 01:52:14,920 Speaker 2: want more liberal options, we must push candidates year round 2262 01:52:15,000 --> 01:52:17,920 Speaker 2: for multiple years in order to get them recognizing in 2263 01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:21,559 Speaker 2: place for the election cycles. They continuously fall for those 2264 01:52:21,680 --> 01:52:24,920 Speaker 2: outliers like Jill Stein, Mary and Williamson and those other 2265 01:52:24,960 --> 01:52:27,759 Speaker 2: two women running for president and VP who I can't remember, 2266 01:52:28,640 --> 01:52:31,559 Speaker 2: who do absolutely no groundwork in the off cycle election. 2267 01:52:31,720 --> 01:52:35,719 Speaker 2: You know, it is extremely frustrating. And then after encouraging 2268 01:52:35,760 --> 01:52:38,720 Speaker 2: everyone not to vote because of a single issue Palestine, 2269 01:52:39,200 --> 01:52:41,320 Speaker 2: they will be the ones complaining a lot of a 2270 01:52:41,320 --> 01:52:44,599 Speaker 2: lot of us if we get a Trump dictatorship. Yes, meanwhile, 2271 01:52:44,680 --> 01:52:47,439 Speaker 2: we did the right thing voter consistently emphasize the importance 2272 01:52:47,479 --> 01:52:50,120 Speaker 2: of voting in every election to our children and advocating 2273 01:52:50,360 --> 01:52:53,200 Speaker 2: for democracy. But will have to be the ones genuinely 2274 01:52:53,320 --> 01:52:55,920 Speaker 2: taking steps to potentially have to leave the country if 2275 01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:59,240 Speaker 2: the future as a lesbian interracial couple living in Georgia. 2276 01:52:59,400 --> 01:53:01,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, and here's the thing I keep thinking about too. 2277 01:53:04,360 --> 01:53:08,200 Speaker 2: Part of this is also about how much we validated 2278 01:53:08,280 --> 01:53:11,560 Speaker 2: the feelings of the children. And I don't mean that 2279 01:53:12,240 --> 01:53:14,920 Speaker 2: as a we shouldn't have done that thing. I just mean, 2280 01:53:15,040 --> 01:53:18,360 Speaker 2: like every generation overcorrects for what they didn't get. So 2281 01:53:18,560 --> 01:53:21,360 Speaker 2: jen X, we were very much like left to our 2282 01:53:21,520 --> 01:53:24,320 Speaker 2: own devices. We were the last key kids. This is 2283 01:53:24,360 --> 01:53:27,479 Speaker 2: before the paranoia and craze of the internet and like, 2284 01:53:27,560 --> 01:53:29,720 Speaker 2: oh you're gonna get someone's gonna snatch up my kid. 2285 01:53:29,800 --> 01:53:31,760 Speaker 2: You can't leave. They don't even leave the yard. Here's 2286 01:53:31,800 --> 01:53:33,080 Speaker 2: your cell phone. I need to track you. 2287 01:53:36,960 --> 01:53:41,320 Speaker 4: Sorry, don't vamp careen. Let me no problem. And I 2288 01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:42,639 Speaker 4: do agree with you, Rodrick. 2289 01:53:43,760 --> 01:53:45,800 Speaker 2: Oh no, don't vamp No, I'm just kidding. I got it. 2290 01:53:46,080 --> 01:53:47,439 Speaker 3: No, I do agree with you, Roderick. 2291 01:53:47,479 --> 01:53:50,760 Speaker 1: Where Ea, each generation tries to quote unquote overcorrect. So 2292 01:53:50,880 --> 01:53:52,960 Speaker 1: like you said, our generation was that generation, so our 2293 01:53:53,040 --> 01:53:57,120 Speaker 1: generation goes. We were the children who grew up where 2294 01:53:57,240 --> 01:53:59,120 Speaker 1: children were meant to be seen and not heard and 2295 01:53:59,160 --> 01:54:00,280 Speaker 1: all that other bullish. 2296 01:54:00,400 --> 01:54:05,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so of course we want our kids feelings 2297 01:54:05,040 --> 01:54:06,479 Speaker 2: to be the most valid, right. 2298 01:54:07,080 --> 01:54:09,280 Speaker 4: Because our feelings were. It was your feelings don't matter. 2299 01:54:10,680 --> 01:54:13,200 Speaker 2: Your value to your job matters, Your value to your 2300 01:54:13,200 --> 01:54:16,439 Speaker 2: family and the people around you matters. The results matter. 2301 01:54:17,080 --> 01:54:18,640 Speaker 2: And then we raise kids where it's like, no, the 2302 01:54:18,760 --> 01:54:22,120 Speaker 2: process matters more than anything. How you feel about it 2303 01:54:22,240 --> 01:54:27,040 Speaker 2: matters more than anything. So they look at voting that way. 2304 01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:30,720 Speaker 2: They're like, I don't feel great. They don't see it 2305 01:54:30,760 --> 01:54:32,560 Speaker 2: as a civic duty. They don't see it as a 2306 01:54:32,600 --> 01:54:36,200 Speaker 2: thing you need to participate in because you're a citizen 2307 01:54:36,280 --> 01:54:38,800 Speaker 2: of this country and you are responsible for where it goes. 2308 01:54:39,080 --> 01:54:42,280 Speaker 3: Yes you are, Yes you are. That shit matters, So 2309 01:54:42,800 --> 01:54:43,240 Speaker 3: I see. 2310 01:54:43,320 --> 01:54:46,800 Speaker 2: I've always seen voting as mitigating harm. I've always seen 2311 01:54:46,920 --> 01:54:50,320 Speaker 2: voting as trying to make the best out of something bad. 2312 01:54:51,120 --> 01:54:53,360 Speaker 2: When people say like, I don't want to pick the 2313 01:54:53,440 --> 01:54:56,280 Speaker 2: best of two bad outcomes, I'm always like, are you 2314 01:54:56,400 --> 01:55:01,600 Speaker 2: not American? What do you know of this country? When 2315 01:55:01,800 --> 01:55:04,800 Speaker 2: was it ever good outcomes? Right when they were killing 2316 01:55:04,840 --> 01:55:08,560 Speaker 2: the indigenous people that were here already, when they backstabbed 2317 01:55:08,560 --> 01:55:12,000 Speaker 2: the British people that funded their trip here and said 2318 01:55:12,000 --> 01:55:14,320 Speaker 2: we're not paying taxes? Or was it during the slavery 2319 01:55:14,880 --> 01:55:17,840 Speaker 2: or was it during the Civil War, or was it 2320 01:55:18,000 --> 01:55:21,960 Speaker 2: during the reconstruction of the Civil Rights era or segregation? 2321 01:55:22,160 --> 01:55:22,200 Speaker 11: What? 2322 01:55:22,440 --> 01:55:27,160 Speaker 2: Like, tell me when it wasn't too bad choices? This 2323 01:55:27,600 --> 01:55:31,720 Speaker 2: is a heist, This is an empire. So like I 2324 01:55:31,920 --> 01:55:35,160 Speaker 2: think when you abdicate yourself, what you're really doing is 2325 01:55:35,200 --> 01:55:37,880 Speaker 2: stick in your hand in the saying letting shit get worse. 2326 01:55:38,360 --> 01:55:41,080 Speaker 2: And I would be okay with that, but you're the 2327 01:55:41,160 --> 01:55:43,320 Speaker 2: most complaining this ass motherfuckers out there. 2328 01:55:43,440 --> 01:55:44,360 Speaker 3: Just shit the fuck out. 2329 01:55:44,480 --> 01:55:47,040 Speaker 2: Then y'all trip over your own bike seat and then 2330 01:55:47,160 --> 01:55:48,320 Speaker 2: go who did this to me? 2331 01:55:48,480 --> 01:55:49,320 Speaker 4: The Democrats? 2332 01:55:49,400 --> 01:55:52,040 Speaker 2: And that's the part that bothers me the most is 2333 01:55:52,040 --> 01:55:54,720 Speaker 2: because it's not like you're gonna cause because then when 2334 01:55:54,760 --> 01:55:56,839 Speaker 2: I go back and go, well, you know, in twenty sixteen, 2335 01:55:56,920 --> 01:56:00,800 Speaker 2: you could have voted for Hillary and we wouldn't have 2336 01:56:00,840 --> 01:56:03,520 Speaker 2: got the Supreme Court we have now, But you didn't 2337 01:56:03,560 --> 01:56:05,960 Speaker 2: have time to hear that shit in twenty sixteen. I 2338 01:56:06,160 --> 01:56:10,360 Speaker 2: was a Democratic shield. I was anti Bernie. I was 2339 01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:13,400 Speaker 2: something not enough, whatever it was, I wasn't enough. 2340 01:56:13,600 --> 01:56:15,000 Speaker 4: And you know whose fault that is? 2341 01:56:15,400 --> 01:56:19,080 Speaker 2: The Democrats. It's always the Democrats. It's never the American citizen. 2342 01:56:19,320 --> 01:56:21,320 Speaker 2: It's never the person sitting right there that has the 2343 01:56:21,400 --> 01:56:23,960 Speaker 2: opportunity to vote that doesn't do it. The person sitting 2344 01:56:24,040 --> 01:56:27,480 Speaker 2: right there that votes for the Republicans, the person sitting 2345 01:56:27,560 --> 01:56:30,320 Speaker 2: right there that those I'm not voting for a president, 2346 01:56:30,320 --> 01:56:32,480 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna vote for everything local that'll get turned 2347 01:56:32,520 --> 01:56:36,680 Speaker 2: down by a president. It's those motherfuckers are never the 2348 01:56:36,760 --> 01:56:41,400 Speaker 2: people at fault. It's always some somebody in the office somewhere. 2349 01:56:41,760 --> 01:56:44,320 Speaker 2: Somebody didn't say it the right way and they didn't 2350 01:56:44,320 --> 01:56:47,760 Speaker 2: do it the right way. I'm watching the Democrats in 2351 01:56:47,840 --> 01:56:53,840 Speaker 2: South Carolina run and directly towards black people. This is 2352 01:56:53,920 --> 01:56:56,400 Speaker 2: what we have promised, this is what we have done, 2353 01:56:56,720 --> 01:56:58,840 Speaker 2: this is what we need to do more, this is 2354 01:56:58,880 --> 01:57:02,160 Speaker 2: what we haven't done. Here's why it wasn't done. Here's 2355 01:57:02,200 --> 01:57:06,160 Speaker 2: how we can do it. And I'm watching instead Twitter, 2356 01:57:07,000 --> 01:57:10,840 Speaker 2: black media spaces spend most of their time going yeah, 2357 01:57:11,080 --> 01:57:15,000 Speaker 2: but I don't feel blank or yeah they say that, 2358 01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:19,080 Speaker 2: but I ain't no Democrat, I ain't on the plan takee. 2359 01:57:19,120 --> 01:57:21,040 Speaker 2: They're not gonna make me a bit. I'm not like 2360 01:57:21,560 --> 01:57:24,440 Speaker 2: that's what we're dealing with, and not just that. And 2361 01:57:25,080 --> 01:57:29,760 Speaker 2: the problem isn't that that is a representative of black people. 2362 01:57:30,240 --> 01:57:31,480 Speaker 2: The problem to me is that it's not. 2363 01:57:32,080 --> 01:57:32,520 Speaker 3: No, it's not. 2364 01:57:32,680 --> 01:57:36,840 Speaker 2: What we're seeing on TV is a attempt, and it's 2365 01:57:36,920 --> 01:57:40,000 Speaker 2: happened many times before, but it's an attempt to put 2366 01:57:40,840 --> 01:57:44,360 Speaker 2: the emphasis on the black people whose arms are folded, 2367 01:57:44,560 --> 01:57:46,800 Speaker 2: who say they don't know where they're gonna vote. And 2368 01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:50,000 Speaker 2: this is gonna sound a little bit weird because I 2369 01:57:50,200 --> 01:57:53,720 Speaker 2: know on Twitter and stuff how what social media is saying. 2370 01:57:54,480 --> 01:57:59,440 Speaker 2: But me personally, as a straight black dude, black as 2371 01:57:59,480 --> 01:58:05,480 Speaker 2: a's had black male voter, I find it personally motherfucking offensive. Right, 2372 01:58:06,080 --> 01:58:11,040 Speaker 2: the narrative that is being spread about us, specifically, MSNBC 2373 01:58:11,200 --> 01:58:13,120 Speaker 2: has some special they're gonna be doing this week I 2374 01:58:13,160 --> 01:58:15,200 Speaker 2: think C and N maybe two, and it's gonna be 2375 01:58:15,240 --> 01:58:17,600 Speaker 2: all about these black voters who are gonna not vote 2376 01:58:17,640 --> 01:58:19,320 Speaker 2: Democrat or possibly vote for Trump. 2377 01:58:19,920 --> 01:58:22,680 Speaker 4: And it's gonna be black men on the face of 2378 01:58:22,720 --> 01:58:23,560 Speaker 4: it for the most part. 2379 01:58:24,440 --> 01:58:30,240 Speaker 2: And the problem I have with that is that if 2380 01:58:30,320 --> 01:58:34,800 Speaker 2: you were being kind and overestimating over indexing how many 2381 01:58:34,840 --> 01:58:38,240 Speaker 2: black men are voting for Trump, let's say twenty percent, 2382 01:58:39,960 --> 01:58:44,040 Speaker 2: that is not representative of me.

But they're not fucking insane, They're not 2390 01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:14,800 Speaker 2: just trying to get intention attention, they're not just saying 2391 01:59:14,920 --> 01:59:18,440 Speaker 2: shit to be saying it. But instead I have to 2392 01:59:18,520 --> 01:59:24,280 Speaker 2: watch this over representation of a few motherfuckers, and now 2393 01:59:24,480 --> 01:59:26,800 Speaker 2: we're all taking slings and arrows because once again I 2394 01:59:26,840 --> 01:59:30,960 Speaker 2: will remind you black men of anybody in fucking a 2395 01:59:31,080 --> 01:59:35,480 Speaker 2: male demographic demographic in America the most likely to vote Democrat. 2396 01:59:36,280 --> 01:59:39,200 Speaker 2: Why doesn't it quote unquote feel that way.

And 2442 02:01:31,960 --> 02:01:33,880 Speaker 1: I heard I didn't listen to that whole podcast, like 2443 02:01:34,080 --> 02:01:36,360 Speaker 1: I fucking infuriated, and I was like, goddamn it, I'm 2444 02:01:36,400 --> 02:01:38,880 Speaker 1: not listening to this bullshit. These ignorant ass niggas up 2445 02:01:38,880 --> 02:01:41,840 Speaker 1: here talking bullshit just for goddamn attention, and they don't 2446 02:01:41,920 --> 02:01:44,720 Speaker 1: represent us. Most people I talk to are like, bitch, 2447 02:01:44,720 --> 02:01:47,680 Speaker 1: I'm vote for Botten. The fuck it is is January 2448 02:01:48,480 --> 02:01:49,000 Speaker 1: and they're not. 2449 02:01:49,280 --> 02:01:52,840 Speaker 2: And it's an uncontested primary basically, so there's no fucking point, right. 2450 02:01:53,040 --> 02:01:56,760 Speaker 2: But also, they don't do this to everybody like they 2451 02:01:57,000 --> 02:02:00,600 Speaker 2: like they've chosen to do this to us. They could, 2452 02:02:00,720 --> 02:02:05,360 Speaker 2: they would have a good fucking they'd have a better 2453 02:02:06,160 --> 02:02:08,720 Speaker 2: they would do better and more accurate. To go talk 2454 02:02:08,720 --> 02:02:11,480 Speaker 2: to other demographics of voters, voters if they talk to 2455 02:02:11,600 --> 02:02:15,880 Speaker 2: Asian men, Latino men, whereas where's a lot less than 2456 02:02:16,920 --> 02:02:19,800 Speaker 2: eighty percent of them voting the Democrat. Then maybe you 2457 02:02:19,840 --> 02:02:21,880 Speaker 2: got a TV show, maybe you really got some people 2458 02:02:21,960 --> 02:02:24,600 Speaker 2: that really are let everybody down and being like I'm 2459 02:02:24,640 --> 02:02:27,840 Speaker 2: signing with the white supremacy one out of five, And 2460 02:02:27,960 --> 02:02:31,200 Speaker 2: I once again remember I'm rounding up one out of five, 2461 02:02:31,280 --> 02:02:33,960 Speaker 2: ain't it. That's not the special I want to see. 2462 02:02:34,840 --> 02:02:37,640 Speaker 2: So anyway, it's very bothersome. And I know that this 2463 02:02:37,800 --> 02:02:42,000 Speaker 2: is part of a bigger talking point that if Biden 2464 02:02:42,080 --> 02:02:46,320 Speaker 2: does lose, black men will get no, will get a 2465 02:02:46,480 --> 02:02:51,640 Speaker 2: lot more blame. They then we should like it'll be 2466 02:02:51,800 --> 02:02:55,560 Speaker 2: like like we'll somehow fall beneath white men, Asian man, 2467 02:02:55,640 --> 02:02:57,800 Speaker 2: Latino men, every other group of men that voted at 2468 02:02:57,840 --> 02:03:00,760 Speaker 2: a higher rate for Republicans, and it'll be like this 2469 02:03:00,880 --> 02:03:03,640 Speaker 2: is why they the weakest linked the Jamal's and Jerome's 2470 02:03:03,680 --> 02:03:05,040 Speaker 2: and the Julio's and all that shit. 2471 02:03:05,080 --> 02:03:08,200 Speaker 4: And it's just like, fuck, man, I hate this bullshit. 2472 02:03:08,320 --> 02:03:08,800 Speaker 3: I hate it. 2473 02:03:09,240 --> 02:03:13,520 Speaker 2: It's very annoying. And then as far as if it wins, 2474 02:03:13,600 --> 02:03:18,760 Speaker 2: by the wins, zero credit, right, zero fucking credit, So 2475 02:03:18,960 --> 02:03:20,520 Speaker 2: all it'll be like, well, there wasn't enough of them 2476 02:03:20,560 --> 02:03:22,360 Speaker 2: niggas to make the vote one way or another. So 2477 02:03:22,480 --> 02:03:25,840 Speaker 2: it's just it's a thankless bashing that we're going through 2478 02:03:26,360 --> 02:03:28,760 Speaker 2: that is just compounded by the fact there's always some 2479 02:03:28,880 --> 02:03:32,640 Speaker 2: type of gender warshit happening and it bothers me and 2480 02:03:32,720 --> 02:03:35,000 Speaker 2: it has a real effect on people's. 2481 02:03:34,720 --> 02:03:37,320 Speaker 4: Mentality and the discussions that happened around the election. 2482 02:03:38,360 --> 02:03:40,240 Speaker 2: We have also been talking about the access to so 2483 02:03:40,320 --> 02:03:43,400 Speaker 2: much information via Google Library, speaking to elders, et cetera. 2484 02:03:43,520 --> 02:03:46,320 Speaker 4: And contrast to this new idea of intentional ignorance. 2485 02:03:47,080 --> 02:03:49,800 Speaker 2: No matter how many attempts are made to provide education, 2486 02:03:49,960 --> 02:03:52,520 Speaker 2: there's just a deliberate choice. It seems to not do 2487 02:03:52,640 --> 02:03:55,840 Speaker 2: any research for force few and misinformation. There's also seems 2488 02:03:55,880 --> 02:03:59,400 Speaker 2: to be a lack of literacy, and specifically media literacy, 2489 02:03:59,600 --> 02:04:02,440 Speaker 2: which pact the ability to understand information as available. It 2490 02:04:02,560 --> 02:04:07,440 Speaker 2: is incredibly disheartening to see BIPOC people, women and differently 2491 02:04:07,480 --> 02:04:09,560 Speaker 2: able creators act like nothing will be different if we 2492 02:04:09,640 --> 02:04:10,640 Speaker 2: have Republicans at charge. 2493 02:04:10,680 --> 02:04:10,880 Speaker 4: Again. 2494 02:04:11,600 --> 02:04:15,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, the other part of that too, is not just 2495 02:04:15,320 --> 02:04:22,600 Speaker 2: about intentional ignorance, is performative objectivity. And because a lot 2496 02:04:22,640 --> 02:04:27,040 Speaker 2: has happened on social media, you can't. We can't separate 2497 02:04:27,120 --> 02:04:30,600 Speaker 2: the performance of it from the content. Yes, and so 2498 02:04:31,640 --> 02:04:36,600 Speaker 2: there is a higher threshold of likes and interaction you 2499 02:04:36,720 --> 02:04:41,959 Speaker 2: get from the performative objectivity or the like I'm purposely 2500 02:04:42,080 --> 02:04:45,240 Speaker 2: gonna leave certain things out this, you know, I don't. 2501 02:04:45,600 --> 02:04:48,000 Speaker 2: I really truly am not trying to be an asshole 2502 02:04:48,040 --> 02:04:50,960 Speaker 2: when I talk about these things. But part of the 2503 02:04:51,040 --> 02:04:54,440 Speaker 2: reason I love this space is because we are talking 2504 02:04:54,520 --> 02:04:56,720 Speaker 2: for over two hours a day. If you've listened to 2505 02:04:56,760 --> 02:04:58,840 Speaker 2: the whole thing, there's context and everything we've said. If 2506 02:04:58,840 --> 02:05:01,000 Speaker 2: you've listened to more than one episode, so there's context, 2507 02:05:01,080 --> 02:05:03,120 Speaker 2: you understand what I'm saying and the trust that comes 2508 02:05:03,160 --> 02:05:09,200 Speaker 2: from that. But the thing about about the social media 2509 02:05:09,320 --> 02:05:14,640 Speaker 2: of it all is that once something is rewarded, it 2510 02:05:14,800 --> 02:05:18,840 Speaker 2: is imitated. Yes, So that's why you have comedians doing 2511 02:05:18,920 --> 02:05:22,680 Speaker 2: crowd work because they saw Matt Rife blow up. Now 2512 02:05:22,760 --> 02:05:26,240 Speaker 2: the next person won't get as much, but they'll get 2513 02:05:26,440 --> 02:05:27,440 Speaker 2: more than they were getting. 2514 02:05:27,840 --> 02:05:29,680 Speaker 4: So they're gonna say it too. They're gonna do the 2515 02:05:29,720 --> 02:05:32,400 Speaker 4: crowd work too. Lip sync. 2516 02:05:32,640 --> 02:05:35,120 Speaker 2: We saw it with lip sync, these things where people 2517 02:05:35,200 --> 02:05:37,200 Speaker 2: do skits that are really just the audio or something 2518 02:05:37,240 --> 02:05:41,360 Speaker 2: else and or just blatantly steal jokes and you never 2519 02:05:41,400 --> 02:05:44,400 Speaker 2: even know who made the joke first because people are 2520 02:05:44,440 --> 02:05:48,000 Speaker 2: stealing it with no attribution, no accreditation. Right, So what 2521 02:05:48,160 --> 02:05:53,120 Speaker 2: I mean by that is that doesn't stop at entertainment content. Nope, 2522 02:05:53,400 --> 02:05:56,960 Speaker 2: that doesn't stop at jokes. So it can happen with 2523 02:05:57,120 --> 02:06:00,800 Speaker 2: causes too. It's why people put up black squares for 2524 02:06:00,920 --> 02:06:04,000 Speaker 2: Black Lives Matter, because at some point it becomes more 2525 02:06:04,040 --> 02:06:06,880 Speaker 2: about the signal you're putting out in the groups that 2526 02:06:06,960 --> 02:06:10,280 Speaker 2: you're deciding to signal too when to say I'm down 2527 02:06:10,360 --> 02:06:14,320 Speaker 2: with and I think that, unfortunately happens to very serious 2528 02:06:14,400 --> 02:06:18,960 Speaker 2: life and depth shit. And when someone sees somebody else 2529 02:06:19,040 --> 02:06:21,520 Speaker 2: go viral for their stance, they want to go viral 2530 02:06:21,600 --> 02:06:24,240 Speaker 2: for theirs. And that's what a lot of this has 2531 02:06:24,320 --> 02:06:27,640 Speaker 2: devolved into and has stopped being about the event and 2532 02:06:27,760 --> 02:06:29,920 Speaker 2: the people because it's become. 2533 02:06:29,680 --> 02:06:34,320 Speaker 4: About us and ours. Not for everybody, but for a 2534 02:06:34,400 --> 02:06:34,960 Speaker 4: lot of people. 2535 02:06:36,120 --> 02:06:37,560 Speaker 2: I don't know that I have a point with this, 2536 02:06:37,680 --> 02:06:39,000 Speaker 2: but I just felt a lot of agreement with your 2537 02:06:39,000 --> 02:06:41,360 Speaker 2: talking points per usual, And while I won't I would 2538 02:06:41,400 --> 02:06:43,720 Speaker 2: love to have a calm peace that you all have. 2539 02:06:44,160 --> 02:06:46,200 Speaker 2: I'm furious and anxious about how to participate in the 2540 02:06:46,280 --> 02:06:49,120 Speaker 2: worst group project and the hopes that everyone will contribute 2541 02:06:49,160 --> 02:06:50,960 Speaker 2: and we don't lose all our rights and freedom. Sorry 2542 02:06:50,960 --> 02:06:52,760 Speaker 2: for the long take and hope it makes sense, but 2543 02:06:52,880 --> 02:06:54,520 Speaker 2: it was nice to get it all out regardless.

I'm sure I'll be upset by 2590 02:08:57,560 --> 02:09:01,000 Speaker 2: things in the next ten months, just would over anything. 2591 02:09:01,440 --> 02:09:03,760 Speaker 2: And I'm sure if Trump wins, I'll be upset. Like 2592 02:09:03,880 --> 02:09:07,400 Speaker 2: It's not like I'm not poshuman, but i am very 2593 02:09:07,480 --> 02:09:10,400 Speaker 2: much Just like, we can only do what we can do, 2594 02:09:10,520 --> 02:09:12,200 Speaker 2: and I feel like the work we've done on the 2595 02:09:12,240 --> 02:09:14,640 Speaker 2: blackout tips of at least talking about these things with 2596 02:09:14,800 --> 02:09:18,880 Speaker 2: nuance and awareness is better than most of the people 2597 02:09:18,920 --> 02:09:20,400 Speaker 2: talking about this shit, to be honest. 2598 02:09:20,520 --> 02:09:22,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know what I mean, right, you talked 2599 02:09:22,000 --> 02:09:25,560 Speaker 1: about it. You know when Hillary Clinton, you know, was running, 2600 02:09:25,680 --> 02:09:28,640 Speaker 1: I was mad voting things like that. And you know, 2601 02:09:28,720 --> 02:09:30,560 Speaker 1: it's one of those things where no, no, no, no, 2602 02:09:30,680 --> 02:09:32,520 Speaker 1: no no, no, ain't no man ain't no, no, no, no, 2603 02:09:32,960 --> 02:09:33,880 Speaker 1: We're we're. 2604 02:09:33,760 --> 02:09:34,560 Speaker 3: Not doing that shit. 2605 02:09:34,640 --> 02:09:37,080 Speaker 1: It's one of these things where you have to look 2606 02:09:37,240 --> 02:09:40,920 Speaker 1: outside of yourself and for the fact that you can vote. 2607 02:09:40,920 --> 02:09:43,320 Speaker 1: It's almost to an extents of privilege in this country 2608 02:09:43,360 --> 02:09:46,360 Speaker 1: because so many people getting their votes stripped away, voter suppression, 2609 02:09:46,440 --> 02:09:49,240 Speaker 1: jerry mandering and shit like that, where you know, these 2610 02:09:49,360 --> 02:09:50,000 Speaker 1: things matter. 2611 02:09:50,200 --> 02:09:52,160 Speaker 3: And so I have a vote, I have the right 2612 02:09:52,280 --> 02:09:52,760 Speaker 3: to vote. 2613 02:09:52,840 --> 02:09:54,880 Speaker 1: I have a driver's license, particularly here in the state 2614 02:09:54,960 --> 02:09:57,640 Speaker 1: of North Carolina, so that I can go and actually vote. 2615 02:09:57,720 --> 02:10:01,840 Speaker 1: So to me, my vot isn't just for me. My vote, 2616 02:10:02,200 --> 02:10:04,600 Speaker 1: it's on the behalf of other people that cannot be 2617 02:10:04,720 --> 02:10:07,440 Speaker 1: in the room. And so because of that, I take 2618 02:10:07,520 --> 02:10:12,440 Speaker 1: my civic duty and voting very very seriously. And it's 2619 02:10:12,520 --> 02:10:15,480 Speaker 1: one of those things where you know, I am not 2620 02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:19,600 Speaker 1: the type of person to, you know, see things happening 2621 02:10:19,720 --> 02:10:22,960 Speaker 1: and just be like, oh, well, whatever happened happened. No, no, no, no, 2622 02:10:23,600 --> 02:10:26,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, this is happening. You need to be aware. 2623 02:10:26,280 --> 02:10:27,880 Speaker 1: You need to be alert. Now, whatever you do with 2624 02:10:27,960 --> 02:10:30,880 Speaker 1: the information is your choice. But you cannot say you 2625 02:10:31,000 --> 02:10:33,200 Speaker 1: listen to this platform and you did not know and 2626 02:10:33,280 --> 02:10:37,560 Speaker 1: you were not aware of how important it is and 2627 02:10:37,960 --> 02:10:41,560 Speaker 1: how you make a difference, you know. And I think 2628 02:10:41,640 --> 02:10:44,640 Speaker 1: too many people are particular on social media tell you 2629 02:10:44,760 --> 02:10:48,040 Speaker 1: this shit don't matter, Why waste your time, and all 2630 02:10:48,120 --> 02:10:50,760 Speaker 1: these things that I kind of anti everything, and for 2631 02:10:50,800 --> 02:10:52,560 Speaker 1: a lot of people to spend a lot of time online, 2632 02:10:52,600 --> 02:10:53,520 Speaker 1: talk to people offline. 2633 02:10:53,520 --> 02:10:54,320 Speaker 3: I'm not your fund that like. 2634 02:10:54,440 --> 02:10:57,760 Speaker 1: Literally talk to people offline, your family and friends, people 2635 02:10:57,800 --> 02:11:00,400 Speaker 1: that don't spend and ask them to act should get 2636 02:11:00,400 --> 02:11:03,440 Speaker 1: a real feeling of reality because sometimes them niggas are 2637 02:11:03,480 --> 02:11:07,080 Speaker 1: not in reality reality, They're in whatever the social media 2638 02:11:07,240 --> 02:11:10,360 Speaker 1: reality is. And sometimes it's a disconnect between what they 2639 02:11:10,480 --> 02:11:13,400 Speaker 1: say and this because if you would have let online 2640 02:11:13,480 --> 02:11:16,320 Speaker 1: tell told it, Joe Biden would have never been a nominee. 2641 02:11:17,600 --> 02:11:18,240 Speaker 12: But he was. 2642 02:11:18,720 --> 02:11:21,520 Speaker 1: Why Because there's a lot of people who don't spend 2643 02:11:21,800 --> 02:11:23,800 Speaker 1: their time online they fucking vote to. 2644 02:11:26,000 --> 02:11:26,200 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2645 02:11:26,200 --> 02:11:29,040 Speaker 2: And I think also we're seeing a lot of people. 2646 02:11:31,920 --> 02:11:33,840 Speaker 2: We're seeing a lot of people push back now that 2647 02:11:33,960 --> 02:11:36,440 Speaker 2: weren't pushing back last cycle. So that's another thing that 2648 02:11:36,520 --> 02:11:39,240 Speaker 2: gives me a level of peace and calm. Like when 2649 02:11:39,280 --> 02:11:42,360 Speaker 2: I saw Angela riding went on the Breakfast Club and 2650 02:11:42,400 --> 02:11:44,880 Speaker 2: then they was on Twitter having to explained what the 2651 02:11:44,920 --> 02:11:48,120 Speaker 2: fuck they meant. That was good. That was good, The 2652 02:11:48,240 --> 02:11:52,440 Speaker 2: conflict is good. We should be making people feel some 2653 02:11:52,640 --> 02:11:57,840 Speaker 2: level of uncomfortable parroting or spreading misinformation or apathy. We 2654 02:11:57,920 --> 02:12:01,080 Speaker 2: should be doing that, especially when we know us for 2655 02:12:01,160 --> 02:12:04,720 Speaker 2: content purposes because once they were confronted about it, and 2656 02:12:04,880 --> 02:12:07,480 Speaker 2: if you listen to their own podcast, they don't talk 2657 02:12:07,600 --> 02:12:10,720 Speaker 2: like that. So it makes me feel like, Okay, y'all 2658 02:12:10,760 --> 02:12:14,600 Speaker 2: want to talk about it in that space, but strategically 2659 02:12:14,720 --> 02:12:18,240 Speaker 2: you understand that that y'all don't really get down like that. 2660 02:12:19,200 --> 02:12:22,600 Speaker 2: John Wright, saying the originalist on the topic of while 2661 02:12:22,640 --> 02:12:25,000 Speaker 2: Republican voters love Trump, I think it's simple. They want 2662 02:12:25,080 --> 02:12:27,680 Speaker 2: someone who will be the worst, someone who will choose 2663 02:12:27,680 --> 02:12:29,720 Speaker 2: the horrible policies of the radical right, but will also 2664 02:12:29,800 --> 02:12:33,440 Speaker 2: do it in a flamboyantly assholeish way. And nobody combines 2665 02:12:33,480 --> 02:12:35,760 Speaker 2: those two things better than Trump. People like the Saentis 2666 02:12:35,840 --> 02:12:38,920 Speaker 2: and Abbot can try out asshole to out asshole him. 2667 02:12:39,200 --> 02:12:41,280 Speaker 2: But because Trump is just a natural narcissist and was 2668 02:12:41,320 --> 02:12:44,520 Speaker 2: fairly famous, he somehow pisses off all of us decent 2669 02:12:44,560 --> 02:12:47,520 Speaker 2: people more than his competitors can. Oh yeah, the anger 2670 02:12:47,640 --> 02:12:49,920 Speaker 2: is a huge part, like how mad he makes other 2671 02:12:49,920 --> 02:12:52,600 Speaker 2: people is a huge part for them. He really has 2672 02:12:52,680 --> 02:12:55,040 Speaker 2: an almost superhuman ability to be a dick, and that's 2673 02:12:55,080 --> 02:12:56,760 Speaker 2: why mag of people love him so much in a 2674 02:12:56,800 --> 02:13:00,360 Speaker 2: way that they probably never will for the others. Most 2675 02:13:00,400 --> 02:13:02,760 Speaker 2: people don't really care about the details of policies. They 2676 02:13:02,800 --> 02:13:05,480 Speaker 2: are confident that Trump and other Republicans will always choose evil. 2677 02:13:06,040 --> 02:13:09,520 Speaker 2: So then it really comes down to personality and that's 2678 02:13:09,520 --> 02:13:13,360 Speaker 2: where Trump wins. The white supremacy, misogyny, transphobia, xenophobia, etc. 2679 02:13:14,000 --> 02:13:16,960 Speaker 2: Are all under that evil umbrella. So there's a little 2680 02:13:17,400 --> 02:13:20,280 Speaker 2: something for every bigot. Likewise, I don't need to know 2681 02:13:20,320 --> 02:13:23,400 Speaker 2: all the details of every policy to know that Biden 2682 02:13:23,600 --> 02:13:26,280 Speaker 2: will pick the best one that can actually be implemented. 2683 02:13:26,360 --> 02:13:28,840 Speaker 2: He's been one of the most successful presidents in our history, 2684 02:13:29,120 --> 02:13:32,520 Speaker 2: despite the absolute shit show he inherited from Trump. Right. Yeah, 2685 02:13:32,600 --> 02:13:36,600 Speaker 2: I was just to wonder how Jimmy Carter happened, because like, 2686 02:13:36,720 --> 02:13:41,640 Speaker 2: people love Jimmy Carter now. People always uphold him as 2687 02:13:41,720 --> 02:13:44,880 Speaker 2: like the ideal president that nigga was a one term 2688 02:13:44,960 --> 02:13:48,480 Speaker 2: president who got his ass kicked in a landslide on. 2689 02:13:48,480 --> 02:13:49,160 Speaker 4: The way out the door. 2690 02:13:50,120 --> 02:13:54,000 Speaker 2: How did that happen? And to me, I feel like, 2691 02:13:54,240 --> 02:13:57,920 Speaker 2: low key Biden shit is like that, and I know 2692 02:13:58,120 --> 02:13:59,800 Speaker 2: people will be like, well, he was trying to know 2693 02:14:00,440 --> 02:14:02,440 Speaker 2: Jimmy would have never did. All I'm saying is this, 2694 02:14:03,680 --> 02:14:05,520 Speaker 2: we will look back at this time and be like 2695 02:14:05,680 --> 02:14:07,440 Speaker 2: he tried to make the best of a bunch of 2696 02:14:07,600 --> 02:14:09,560 Speaker 2: bad situations and bad choices. 2697 02:14:09,760 --> 02:14:13,720 Speaker 4: I think we will look back and see that, and if. 2698 02:14:13,680 --> 02:14:16,360 Speaker 2: He turns out to be a one term president, I 2699 02:14:16,560 --> 02:14:20,240 Speaker 2: feel like people would fondly look back at his presidency 2700 02:14:20,400 --> 02:14:23,920 Speaker 2: with revisionist eyes and be like, what I mean, he 2701 02:14:24,520 --> 02:14:26,400 Speaker 2: did do this, and he tried to do that, and 2702 02:14:26,480 --> 02:14:29,680 Speaker 2: he was doing that as Trump or whoever erases all 2703 02:14:29,760 --> 02:14:32,240 Speaker 2: that shit and does way worse, and y'all have to 2704 02:14:32,280 --> 02:14:34,600 Speaker 2: be like, but y'all didn't believe that shit, y'all weake 2705 02:14:34,680 --> 02:14:37,440 Speaker 2: as fuck because when it came down to it, y'all 2706 02:14:37,480 --> 02:14:39,760 Speaker 2: were like, he ain't perfect.

And I want to be called a hero 2753 02:16:43,520 --> 02:16:46,360 Speaker 2: for that, Right, Well, it's not heroic for me. That's 2754 02:16:46,360 --> 02:16:48,000 Speaker 2: the way my life is set up. That's the way 2755 02:16:48,040 --> 02:16:50,680 Speaker 2: my belief system is set up. You're not gonna change it. 2756 02:16:51,280 --> 02:16:53,480 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna change what you think is heroic. You 2757 02:16:53,520 --> 02:16:56,360 Speaker 2: think doing nothing is heroic. I think doing nothing is 2758 02:16:56,400 --> 02:16:59,400 Speaker 2: the same thing any motherfucker can do. Staying Oh you 2759 02:16:59,560 --> 02:17:01,600 Speaker 2: stayed in at home and didn't vote. Oh my god, 2760 02:17:01,760 --> 02:17:04,480 Speaker 2: the fucking the heroism. Oh my god, thank you. 2761 02:17:04,800 --> 02:17:07,039 Speaker 1: Right, And that's a choice, and people like to act 2762 02:17:07,200 --> 02:17:09,600 Speaker 1: like no action is not a choice. It's a fucking action. 2763 02:17:09,720 --> 02:17:11,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a choice. But I'm saying they know it's 2764 02:17:11,680 --> 02:17:13,200 Speaker 4: a choice because they're telling you it's a choice. 2765 02:17:13,200 --> 02:17:14,720 Speaker 2: And they're not just telling you it's a choice, carry 2766 02:17:14,720 --> 02:17:17,119 Speaker 2: they're telling you it's the right choice, the brave choice, 2767 02:17:17,400 --> 02:17:19,880 Speaker 2: the real only choice is to do what they're doing. 2768 02:17:19,959 --> 02:17:22,959 Speaker 2: And so in that way, I don't feel a need 2769 02:17:23,120 --> 02:17:26,440 Speaker 2: to engage because I don't think there's anything I can 2770 02:17:26,600 --> 02:17:30,360 Speaker 2: say that would help, and I don't have to respect you, 2771 02:17:30,520 --> 02:17:33,120 Speaker 2: and I think you want the content and you want 2772 02:17:33,160 --> 02:17:37,200 Speaker 2: the attention. I don't see it any different honestly than 2773 02:17:37,360 --> 02:17:40,680 Speaker 2: the people like I'm black and I'm voting Republican. Okay, 2774 02:17:43,400 --> 02:17:45,560 Speaker 2: what do we have? There's nothing that you said the 2775 02:17:45,640 --> 02:17:49,240 Speaker 2: whole sentence. That's not an invitation to a discussion. You 2776 02:17:49,440 --> 02:17:52,080 Speaker 2: said where you stand. Good luck with that. 2777 02:17:52,840 --> 02:17:55,400 Speaker 4: That's how I feel. I tried the reason with them, 2778 02:17:55,480 --> 02:17:56,200 Speaker 4: but it's useless. 2779 02:17:56,760 --> 02:17:58,840 Speaker 2: What they're doing, no matter how to said their believes 2780 02:17:58,920 --> 02:18:01,400 Speaker 2: is basically trolling at life's too short. We got election 2781 02:18:01,520 --> 02:18:03,120 Speaker 2: to win, Roger, you talked about how funny it is 2782 02:18:03,200 --> 02:18:06,160 Speaker 2: seeing black sports clasters clearly root based on race and 2783 02:18:06,240 --> 02:18:08,360 Speaker 2: against the white athletes, even though they can't admit it 2784 02:18:08,600 --> 02:18:11,760 Speaker 2: that simple. My first thought was, this is the exact 2785 02:18:11,800 --> 02:18:14,680 Speaker 2: same dynamic I see in so much animosity towards Taylor Swift, 2786 02:18:14,720 --> 02:18:18,600 Speaker 2: Greta gerrig and Margot Robie. The black feminist backlash about 2787 02:18:18,640 --> 02:18:22,279 Speaker 2: people being legitimately upset about the dismissal of Gerwig's achievement. 2788 02:18:22,120 --> 02:18:23,320 Speaker 4: Has been absolutely wild. 2789 02:18:23,640 --> 02:18:25,880 Speaker 2: Did you know that since you expressed that opinion that 2790 02:18:26,000 --> 02:18:28,840 Speaker 2: Greta and Margot deserve OSCAR nominations, you are now officially 2791 02:18:28,879 --> 02:18:29,840 Speaker 2: white feminist TM. 2792 02:18:30,640 --> 02:18:32,720 Speaker 4: I didn't know that, but I also don't be fighting 2793 02:18:32,760 --> 02:18:33,840 Speaker 4: the people on the internet. 2794 02:18:35,040 --> 02:18:38,680 Speaker 2: That you did so without first caping for Lily Gladstone 2795 02:18:38,720 --> 02:18:39,640 Speaker 2: and America Ferrera. 2796 02:18:40,120 --> 02:18:41,880 Speaker 4: Might even make you part of fifty three percent. 2797 02:18:42,040 --> 02:18:42,360 Speaker 6: Lol. 2798 02:18:43,040 --> 02:18:45,280 Speaker 2: It's so funny because the haters are the same people 2799 02:18:45,280 --> 02:18:48,400 Speaker 2: who constantly bemoan the lack of diversity in blackbuster movies. 2800 02:18:48,680 --> 02:18:51,640 Speaker 2: So Greta Gerwig Listen understands the assignment use a power 2801 02:18:51,680 --> 02:18:53,520 Speaker 2: to make one of the biggest movies in history, featured 2802 02:18:53,560 --> 02:18:57,640 Speaker 2: in one of the most diverse displays of racist ethnicists ethnicities, 2803 02:18:57,720 --> 02:19:00,240 Speaker 2: genders and body types. Hell, she even made he's a 2804 02:19:00,320 --> 02:19:02,920 Speaker 2: Ray president. All they do is bash her for being privileged, 2805 02:19:03,280 --> 02:19:05,320 Speaker 2: and they do so by claiming this about her their 2806 02:19:05,400 --> 02:19:07,959 Speaker 2: love for Lily Glastone, who I still I can't help 2807 02:19:08,000 --> 02:19:10,840 Speaker 2: but notice they had never said shit about until just 2808 02:19:10,959 --> 02:19:13,480 Speaker 2: now at America. Forrer, this is one of the reasons 2809 02:19:13,520 --> 02:19:16,400 Speaker 2: of board shows us stupid in America. Ferrer despite the 2810 02:19:16,440 --> 02:19:20,040 Speaker 2: fact unless I win one, then it's good in America. Ferrer, 2811 02:19:20,120 --> 02:19:22,560 Speaker 2: despite the fact that Glasstow hasn't said anything about feeling 2812 02:19:22,640 --> 02:19:25,000 Speaker 2: overlooked at Ferrer actually agrees. 2813 02:19:24,720 --> 02:19:27,440 Speaker 4: That Greta and Margo should should have been nominated. 2814 02:19:27,800 --> 02:19:30,720 Speaker 2: It's the old move of effectively pitting women against each 2815 02:19:30,760 --> 02:19:33,240 Speaker 2: other who never asked to be It's too funny. Don't 2816 02:19:33,280 --> 02:19:35,640 Speaker 2: get me wrong. I get why non white people will 2817 02:19:35,680 --> 02:19:38,120 Speaker 2: have lots of resentment towards white women given their history. 2818 02:19:38,120 --> 02:19:40,480 Speaker 2: I've read several books on the topic, but it's still 2819 02:19:40,560 --> 02:19:44,560 Speaker 2: so weird to me when people take that understandable sentiment 2820 02:19:45,000 --> 02:19:47,200 Speaker 2: so far that they effectively get to a place where 2821 02:19:47,200 --> 02:19:50,280 Speaker 2: they simply can't ever admit that white women sometimes do 2822 02:19:50,400 --> 02:19:53,240 Speaker 2: great things, both artistically and maybe even to help advance 2823 02:19:53,280 --> 02:19:56,280 Speaker 2: equality and representation. I don't know how anyone can say 2824 02:19:56,320 --> 02:19:58,840 Speaker 2: that America Ferrara's rent deserves an Oscar, but that the 2825 02:19:58,920 --> 02:20:01,040 Speaker 2: woman who helped write the ring and help get that 2826 02:20:01,160 --> 02:20:04,280 Speaker 2: amazing performance and the best takeout of Ferrari doesn't, Uh, 2827 02:20:04,520 --> 02:20:05,360 Speaker 2: Ferrera doesn't. 2828 02:20:05,680 --> 02:20:07,359 Speaker 4: Isn't that an acample of great directing? 2829 02:20:08,000 --> 02:20:09,760 Speaker 2: Yeah? Also, I don't like the thing where they from 2830 02:20:10,000 --> 02:20:14,720 Speaker 2: where they put the movie in the best movie and 2831 02:20:14,840 --> 02:20:15,800 Speaker 2: then not the director. 2832 02:20:15,959 --> 02:20:17,560 Speaker 4: That does feel weird. I'm sorry. 2833 02:20:17,959 --> 02:20:21,960 Speaker 2: And look, the award shows are mostly bullshit and all 2834 02:20:22,000 --> 02:20:24,120 Speaker 2: that stuff. Anyway, I don't watch it because of these 2835 02:20:24,200 --> 02:20:28,720 Speaker 2: things bother me too much. But yeah, this is something 2836 02:20:28,800 --> 02:20:32,080 Speaker 2: I point out like all the time. It's that thing 2837 02:20:32,160 --> 02:20:34,760 Speaker 2: that black people say of a certain type where they'll 2838 02:20:34,760 --> 02:20:36,760 Speaker 2: be like, black people can't be racist. We don't have 2839 02:20:36,840 --> 02:20:40,080 Speaker 2: the power to be racist. See, racism is power plus 2840 02:20:40,280 --> 02:20:44,080 Speaker 2: bigotry plus this and that. And I'm like, yeah, but also, 2841 02:20:44,280 --> 02:20:47,680 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Racism is also a colloquial term, 2842 02:20:48,440 --> 02:20:51,200 Speaker 2: and we can we can do that shit at times. 2843 02:20:51,360 --> 02:20:53,520 Speaker 2: We can be racist to other people in our spaces. 2844 02:20:54,160 --> 02:20:57,640 Speaker 2: You know, we can be uh uh and and and 2845 02:20:57,840 --> 02:20:59,800 Speaker 2: and if we said that, we would have to admit 2846 02:20:59,879 --> 02:21:02,920 Speaker 2: that that most white people can't be racist if we're 2847 02:21:03,120 --> 02:21:05,640 Speaker 2: only keeping the strictest definition of you need a lot 2848 02:21:05,680 --> 02:21:08,440 Speaker 2: of power to enact some sort of policy or something. 2849 02:21:08,640 --> 02:21:11,320 Speaker 2: An individual white person typically does not have that level 2850 02:21:11,360 --> 02:21:15,240 Speaker 2: of power. So we're really just saying we were basically 2851 02:21:15,320 --> 02:21:17,000 Speaker 2: be saying like, only a handful of people in the 2852 02:21:17,320 --> 02:21:20,000 Speaker 2: world can be racist, only a handful of you know, 2853 02:21:20,080 --> 02:21:20,880 Speaker 2: And that's not true. 2854 02:21:20,920 --> 02:21:21,600 Speaker 4: It's not true. 2855 02:21:21,959 --> 02:21:24,279 Speaker 2: When someone calls me the N word at a restaurant, 2856 02:21:24,400 --> 02:21:29,840 Speaker 2: that's racist to me. When my uncle makes jokes about 2857 02:21:29,879 --> 02:21:34,000 Speaker 2: Asian women at the fucking Chinese restaurant we went to 2858 02:21:34,080 --> 02:21:35,720 Speaker 2: when I was a kid, that felt racist to me, 2859 02:21:36,440 --> 02:21:38,880 Speaker 2: like like he didn't need to have the power of 2860 02:21:39,600 --> 02:21:43,000 Speaker 2: the system to make me go that's racist. So racism 2861 02:21:43,120 --> 02:21:46,640 Speaker 2: has these like kind of nebulous definitions that mean to 2862 02:21:46,840 --> 02:21:47,280 Speaker 2: things on. 2863 02:21:47,400 --> 02:21:48,680 Speaker 4: Like a micro and macro level. 2864 02:21:48,800 --> 02:21:51,440 Speaker 2: Right to me, I think we do this kind of 2865 02:21:51,959 --> 02:21:54,400 Speaker 2: shit all the time, and I think it's kind of whack. 2866 02:21:55,320 --> 02:21:58,960 Speaker 2: I get it. I'm black too, I have resentment too, 2867 02:21:59,480 --> 02:22:01,600 Speaker 2: but I think giving in to the resentment is kind 2868 02:22:01,640 --> 02:22:04,640 Speaker 2: of corny, especially when the whole thing is just we 2869 02:22:04,760 --> 02:22:06,280 Speaker 2: need to do it to them because it's been done 2870 02:22:06,320 --> 02:22:08,920 Speaker 2: to us. That's the ultimate giving in the white supremacy. 2871 02:22:09,000 --> 02:22:12,200 Speaker 2: To me, I'm gonna continue these cycle because it was 2872 02:22:12,320 --> 02:22:15,400 Speaker 2: done to me. It's the same reason people beat their children. 2873 02:22:15,480 --> 02:22:18,680 Speaker 2: It's the same reason people abuse their spouse. It's the 2874 02:22:18,800 --> 02:22:22,080 Speaker 2: same reason people have bigotry. 2875 02:22:22,240 --> 02:22:23,360 Speaker 4: It's because it was done to. 2876 02:22:23,400 --> 02:22:25,240 Speaker 2: Me, So why not do it to them. I think 2877 02:22:25,280 --> 02:22:27,480 Speaker 2: the most powerful thing you can do is to break 2878 02:22:27,560 --> 02:22:29,680 Speaker 2: that shit and to be like nah. And I think 2879 02:22:29,760 --> 02:22:32,240 Speaker 2: when we truly do recognize that we are all affected 2880 02:22:32,320 --> 02:22:35,120 Speaker 2: by certain issues, that's when we come together, and that's 2881 02:22:35,120 --> 02:22:38,760 Speaker 2: when the best things are done. We're not gonna We're 2882 02:22:38,800 --> 02:22:45,840 Speaker 2: not gonna get equality by dismissing dismissing shit when it's 2883 02:22:45,879 --> 02:22:48,760 Speaker 2: done wrong to white women because ha ha ha bitch, 2884 02:22:48,920 --> 02:22:49,560 Speaker 2: how you like it. 2885 02:22:49,840 --> 02:22:52,600 Speaker 4: We're not gonna win that way, you know. And I 2886 02:22:52,720 --> 02:22:54,000 Speaker 4: think this is one. 2887 02:22:53,959 --> 02:22:58,320 Speaker 2: Area where being a black male who has male privilege 2888 02:22:58,480 --> 02:23:02,080 Speaker 2: and also being black so you have the racial discrimination 2889 02:23:02,280 --> 02:23:05,800 Speaker 2: that that I face, it kind of helps in this 2890 02:23:06,000 --> 02:23:09,640 Speaker 2: area because I've seen what the excuse making can do 2891 02:23:09,840 --> 02:23:13,640 Speaker 2: when it's weaponized for black men. So many times I've 2892 02:23:13,800 --> 02:23:18,320 Speaker 2: talked to and talked spoken against, and confronted these these 2893 02:23:18,400 --> 02:23:21,480 Speaker 2: things where black men will be like, but we experience racism, 2894 02:23:21,640 --> 02:23:25,160 Speaker 2: so ha ha ha, bitch, it's happening to you or whatever. 2895 02:23:25,800 --> 02:23:29,200 Speaker 2: And I'm like, no, it's not.
