Why 234 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 4: did V P. Harris lose? 235 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: Oh man, I should have rolled my white board that 236 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: many yeah, that many yeah. 237 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 15: And and the reason why it's important, I literally have 238 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 15: my stuff in order because a lot of people V said, 239 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 15: you know, she lost because of this. Reason she lost 240 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 15: because of that. And it's really in the Midwest. The 241 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 15: tornado requires water, humidity, when you know multiple things. 242 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 5: Reason it's not one reason. 243 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 15: And when I hear people saying, you know, if he 244 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 15: just did better with the messaging, Oh, if they did 245 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 15: better with the media. I've really kind of put together 246 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 15: a list of flow chart on how basically a colossal stuff. 247 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 2: From top to bottom. You yeah, we're doing, we're doing 248 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 2: to pull out top seat. 249 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 15: So if we just really take it from the top, 250 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 15: as we all said, Joe Biden should have never ran. 251 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,959 Speaker 15: We have to first, you know, start there. Should have 252 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 15: never ran. He said it was the one time it 253 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 15: was gonna be a one term president. We talked about 254 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 15: it multiple times. He actually volunteered that life to say, hey, 255 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 15: I'm only going to run one term. I'm coming in 256 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 15: just to stop Trump immediately. Then they should have started 257 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 15: building a base immediately right out the gate. Trump was 258 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,079 Speaker 15: still campaigning this entire time. 259 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 2: We talked about it. 260 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 15: We talked about how it was constant rallies, constant organizing. 261 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 15: You and I talked about it on the Van Jones Show. 262 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 15: We're saying, you guys really have to continue the organizing 263 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 15: year round. And that's why I blame a lot of 264 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 15: the people at the top who have the ear of 265 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 15: the you know, of the candidates and campaign consultants because 266 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 15: they've been told this multiple multiple times. So we should 267 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 15: have found a white man right then and there who 268 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 15: was going to be next in line to build a 269 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,080 Speaker 15: white man white man, absolutely young white man, right then 270 00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 15: and there. And it's not good to do some by 271 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 15: the way, lot of people keep saying that govern Neuson 272 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 15: will get swamped. 273 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 4: So you didn't think Kamala was gonna win you no 274 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 4: right at the game? 275 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 15: No, no, no, because he's a black woman, or yeah, absolutely, 276 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 15: so that's number three. So let's first get that. So 277 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 15: they should have establish a bitch saying didn't do that? 278 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 15: Governor knew somebody just want to put that out there. 279 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 15: A lot of people like him, great debate, and pe 280 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 15: would have got swamped. You have to remember he literally 281 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 15: passed to be O K through twelve to have shared 282 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,079 Speaker 15: bathroom to a gender. So imagine what consernatives would have 283 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 15: deal with that all over the nation, the homelessness and 284 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 15: all of that. So then, yes, number three, America was 285 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 15: not going to vote for a woman of color period. 286 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 15: And no, in the history of black women and white women, 287 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 15: alliship A leeged Allyship, I have never known a white 288 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 15: woman to give a job to a woman of color 289 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 15: before they got it. That includes even McDonald's on fries 290 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 15: just not gonna happen. Have you ever if a white 291 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 15: woman ever said, you know what, I think you're more qualified, 292 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 15: can go ahead and take it. 293 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 2: They didn't give it to Hillary Clinton. They were not 294 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 2: going to give it to her. I know there was hope. 295 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 15: I know you talked about, you know, believing in us, 296 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 15: but it was never about us believing in us. It 297 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 15: was about us knowing them. It's not about being qualified. 298 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 15: This was when it came down to saying, they didn't 299 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,559 Speaker 15: give it to Hillary Clinton, why would they give it 300 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 15: to Harris? So that was to me an era right 301 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 15: out the gate. But we had no choice because. 302 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 5: Biden, I think Kamalo as a black woman is the 303 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 5: only reader. 304 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: Well, first of all, two things the last two elections, 305 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: the the Democratic Party need to be thinking black women, 306 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 1: right because if it wasn't for Jim Clydburn telling Joe Biden, hey, 307 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: I'm not endorsing you unless you promise that you're gonna 308 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 1: put a black woman on the Supreme Court, I'm not 309 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: endorsing you. So that's what made him endorse Joe Biden. 310 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: He went south Caroline and changes the complexion of his campaign. 311 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 1: If it wasn't for Kamala Harris in twenty twenty, I 312 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: think a lot of us wouldn't have went out there 313 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: and voted for President Biden. 314 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 5: I didn't vote for President Biden. I voted Vice presid 315 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 5: Kamala Harss. I also think in. 316 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four, when you look at the fact that 317 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's presidency was dead, like completely dead in the water, 318 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: and Kamala Harris came to the top of the ticket, 319 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: raised all of this money, ended up having the second 320 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: most votes of any Democratic nomineee ever with seventy four 321 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: million votes. 322 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 5: I think that only happens because she's a black woman. 323 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 15: Well, two things can be true at the same time. 324 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 15: There can be some positives they came with that, but 325 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 15: they're also be some negatives. Where we look at the data, 326 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 15: we don't have to guess. We looked at where white 327 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 15: women aligned, we looked at where the Latino community aligned. 328 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 2: We looked at the bottom line data. 329 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 5: This show Latino men. That was a surprise. 330 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, why was it a surprise? 331 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 10: No? 332 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 2: No, Latinos have always fifty fifty. 333 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,199 Speaker 15: They've always When you look at one, you know, I 334 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,319 Speaker 15: organized for the Bernie Sanders campaign in Michigan. I was 335 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 15: only black woman on the ground in twenty fifteen to 336 00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 15: helped flift that state. Latino community has always been divided. 337 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 15: When you look at Florida and you look at the 338 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 15: Cuban community, they've always went conservative. When you look at 339 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 15: the Bernie Sanders the left side the California, they always 340 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,719 Speaker 15: go left. They have always strategiced, and I ain't mad 341 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 15: about it. They've always strategically been able to have leverage 342 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 15: because they go fifty to fifty. 343 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 2: You remember when Joe Biden told black leaders when he 344 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 2: won it. 345 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 5: Right after he. 346 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 15: Said, yeah, right, and you said, I owe you black people. 347 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 15: Remember when they had the meeting and they leaked the 348 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 15: tapes in front of the Al Sharpton and all of 349 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 15: them and say, y'all need to go follow Latino community 350 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 15: because they're the ones that have the leverage. So I'm 351 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 15: not mad at it, but we need to talk about 352 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 15: it for what it is. There might be a black 353 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 15: and brown coalition in New York. You know, I've talked 354 00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 15: about that all the time. 355 00:13:59,280 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 2: Set that changed. 356 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 15: They're moving over when you talk about the South, when 357 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 15: you talk about the Midwest and particularly when you talk 358 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 15: about the West, there is no black brown coalition and 359 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 15: it's okay for people to vote their interests. 360 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 2: Also, got news for you, black men are conservative. Doing 361 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 2: my Joe Biden whisper. 362 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 15: Black people are conservative. I don't know why people want 363 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 15: to keep, you know, making that not an issue. So 364 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 15: when you're talking about black men and you're talking about 365 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 15: other black people with the majority of the country and 366 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 15: the South majority of moderate I know progressives want to 367 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 15: sell a different story, but black people, for the most 368 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 15: part of martyrn a lot of them lean conservative. We're 369 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 15: gonna get into that when we get into the messaging, 370 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 15: but let's just kind of go back a little bit. 371 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 15: I agreed that there was some positives to it, but 372 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 15: when it came down to it, when we looked at race, 373 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 15: white women, to me, just like they did in the midterm, 374 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 15: just like they did when they were with Obama. Then 375 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 15: they went with Trump, and then they went back to 376 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 15: Democrats in the midterms, and then they flipped back. When 377 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 15: you're talking about white supremacy and talking about positioning like 378 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 15: what they did with the women suffrage movement, I just 379 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 15: didn't see them doing it for a black women over them. 380 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 15: They didn't do it with Hillary Clinton. The only person 381 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 15: that ever beat Donald Trump is Joe Biden, and I. 382 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 5: Agree, but white women voted for Trump over Biden right to. 383 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 15: Align with white supremacy, to align because this is about 384 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 15: white supremacy. This is about would they rather have their 385 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 15: household ahead of you as as a black man. That's 386 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 15: exactly something's wrong and people need to stop these pundits 387 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 15: get on another they went against their own interest. 388 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 2: No, their interest is their household. Your interest is your interest. 389 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 2: My interest is my interest. 390 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 15: When I keep hearing people say that they went against 391 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 15: their own interests, no, they've actually aligned with their interest, 392 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 15: which is white man, white woman, black man. 393 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 2: Black woman. That's the order. 394 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 4: That's how it is. 395 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 15: Black people on the side, check bottom line. We need 396 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 15: to just accept that. I know we want to say BlackGirl. 397 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 15: Imagine everyone say oh because black this and that black 398 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 15: women can't save this country. 399 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 2: We need to stop selling that dream. 400 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 15: Let's get in position and understand what we can do, 401 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:47,720 Speaker 15: which is why I was talking about the local and 402 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 15: state level. And stop trying to sell this timeshare scam 403 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 15: because to me, it was a timeshair scam. I agree 404 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 15: with you that there was really no other choice because 405 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 15: Joe Biden was trash. 406 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: We get that he was trash. 407 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,120 Speaker 15: So once they said, okay, let's rally around Harris. Now 408 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 15: she's a Democrat nominee. 409 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 2: Okay, so cool. 410 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 6: We're with that. 411 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 15: Black women raise thirty million dollars after Gate, Black men 412 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 15: raise thirty million out of gate. So now we're having 413 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 15: to deal with who dropped this bag? Who dropped this 414 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 15: billion dollar bag? And that's the issue where we get 415 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 15: into how they spent the money. I didn't think she 416 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 15: had a chance in hell. But once you decided to 417 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 15: move forward, okay, so what do we do with the money? 418 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 2: Black voters? They lost Black voters across the board. 419 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 15: That one two across the board makes a difference when 420 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 15: you're talk about Michigan, makes a difference in North Carolina. 421 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 15: So that's where we get into your concern where you 422 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 15: talk about messaging, where the messaging was all wrong. 423 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 3: All right, we got more with Teslin. Figure out when 424 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 3: we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club.

They let they set 485 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 15: up now Joe Manchin sing this to a Republican. We've 486 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 15: been talking about this. This has been going on for 487 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 15: the last fifteen years. This loss was not just what 488 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 15: happened in the last one hundred days. This has been 489 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 15: at least from my experience two thousand and seven. I 490 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 15: can name year over year over year on what's what happened, 491 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,680 Speaker 15: on how we got And then another thing I want 492 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 15: to bring up on this messaging abortion. Democrats ran on 493 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 15: reproductive rights and democracy fail right out the gate. You 494 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 15: had states like Arizona and Nevada that had abortion on 495 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 15: the ballot. So Democrats mindset is, let's put abortion on 496 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 15: the ballot and that's going to bring you know, people, 497 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 15: so people know get out to vote.

Oh, they're going to go 499 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 15: to the polls now that abortion's on the ballot. Well, 500 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 15: what you did, meet ballhead, You actually allowed Republican women 501 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 15: who were pro choice to actually vote for abortion and 502 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,479 Speaker 15: still vote for Trump. There's no rule that says if 503 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 15: you support pro choice that you won't vote for Trump. 504 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:39,359 Speaker 15: So Republican women in Nevada and Arizona literally had the 505 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 15: opportunity to bring abortion back and still vote for Trump. 506 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 15: So Democrats shopped themselves even in the foot if you 507 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 15: were expecting women to go vote for reproductive rights because 508 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 15: you gave them an out. 509 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 2: So the messaging was wrong out the gate. 510 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 15: We talked about that not running on the economy, not 511 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 15: running But I still think though even if you should 512 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,160 Speaker 15: have ran on all of those things, they still gonna 513 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 15: vote for. They still would have rather voted for Joe 514 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 15: By and have dead Weekend at Bernie's. You know, they 515 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 15: didn't even win Scranton. They didn't win Scranton. Joe at 516 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 15: least won Scranton, Harris lost Scringt. 517 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 5: I think Joe would have got like sixty five million. 518 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 16: Said, okay, so if if what you're saying is true, 519 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 16: what was all because I felt how you how you 520 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 16: feel now, it's how I felt in the beginning, and 521 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 16: then when I saw the excitement and the money moving 522 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 16: and all that, Yeah, what was all of that? 523 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 5: Then? 524 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 2: I don't think. 525 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 5: Anything. We're not giving you no more money. 526 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 15: Joe have no choice, that's right. Yeah, So let's be 527 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 15: clear they did not have a choice because George. Yeah, 528 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 15: they said they didn't have no choice. So two things 529 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 15: to be true. At the same time, they had to 530 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,360 Speaker 15: put Harris in no doubt about that. I'm not disagreeing 531 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 15: with that, but I still don't think they would have 532 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:47,199 Speaker 15: voted us. 533 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 2: They just would. 534 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 15: They're just not going to give something that they didn't give. First, 535 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 15: did she do the best that she could? Yes? 536 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 2: Did she do everything they told her to do? Yes? 537 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 2: Did she have one hundred days to do it? 538 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 10: Yes? 539 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 15: This is not about on her. This is about setting 540 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 15: up a woman to fail in one hundred days to 541 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 15: do the damn near impossible. I think Joe Biden should 542 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 15: have took that l he's the one that said, you 543 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 15: know he was gonna run.

I know it's not 551 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 15: as exciting, but it really is at the state level. 552 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 15: It really is at the local level. 553 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 5: If you believe in you. 554 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 15: Want to fund the public schools, you can do at 555 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 15: a local level. And you say, you know what I 556 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 15: want charter schools.

Why not be an 560 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 15: Atlanta council with sixteen other people in Orlando, with six 561 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 15: other people, be able to say I'm gonna write a 562 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 15: check to the Black Business Investment Fund, you know, to 563 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 15: be able to say, hey, here's some money to go 564 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 15: start a business. You can pass reparations at the local level. 565 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 15: So I don't understand this obsession that we have with 566 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 15: this federal thing. And I'm gonna be honest with you, Lauren. 567 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 15: Black women a lot of time times we get caught 568 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 15: up and it's wanting to be validated so damn bad. 569 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 15: So when the excitement was there, when everybody's like, oh man, 570 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 15: we can do this, we can do this. Black girl, 571 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 15: manage we do this, we can do this. Do this 572 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 15: validation of needing to be affirmed, need to say you 573 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 15: are qualified enough, you are good enough. 574 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 2: A lot of that played into it. A lot of 575 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 2: that played into it. 576 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 15: But let's not forget three thousand black women did a 577 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 15: petition and said, Joe Biden, keep your ass in. They 578 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 15: ignored that and went with the money. To charlet Mane's point, 579 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 15: they didn't have a choice. 580 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 5: I agree with you, especially about the state thing. 581 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: You know, there's something else Trump said that man landed, 582 00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: and I was I'm still trying to figure out how 583 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: did he land this because it's so hard to get 584 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: people to focus on this the abortion thing, right, He 585 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: told them I wanted to be in the hands of 586 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: the state. So whenever you would have conversations with people about, 587 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 1: you know, abortions on the ballot. 588 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 5: They'd be like, no, Trump just wants it to be 589 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 5: in the hands of the state. 590 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 1: I've never seen a politician convince people on a national 591 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: level it's going to be local and that's fine, and 592 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: they buy into it. 593 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 2: Well, Trump can get anybody to buy in anything he say. 594 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 2: I mean, he's a total man. 595 00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:57,360 Speaker 15: Press have never been equipped to run against Trump. Let's 596 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 15: just name it, you know, let's just say they've never 597 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 15: been equipped run against them. He's too petty, he goes 598 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 15: too low, he don't give a damn what y'all talking 599 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 15: about the entertainer first, and so they've never been equipped 600 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 15: to go against this man. 601 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:09,400 Speaker 17: Never. 602 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 15: But to your point, Charlemagne, for those who understand the states' 603 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 15: rights and when you go back to Reagan, the reason 604 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 15: why black people are against SET is because what it 605 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 15: does is it disenfranchise us. Even more so if you're saying, Okay, 606 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 15: in Oklahoma, you can't get access to health care, but 607 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 15: you can get access to health care in California. 608 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 2: Very liberal. 609 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 15: These are folks that can't just pick up, you know, 610 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 15: and go to California to get what they need, don't 611 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 15: have the money, so it affects poor people in a 612 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 15: very bad way. The States rights, but conservatives they like 613 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:39,439 Speaker 15: states give it to the states their mindset. 614 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 2: If you don't like it, move somewhere else. 615 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 15: But none of us had not enough of us have 616 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 15: the resources to just move, you know, somewhere else, to 617 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 15: just move where things you know may be favorable to you. 618 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 15: So as black voters were always trying to carry the 619 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,920 Speaker 15: lease of these and everybody else and think about everybody else. 620 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 15: But the reality is, Charlotmage, people are only looking out 621 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 15: what's in front of their doorstep. Remember when governors us 622 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,160 Speaker 15: the Santis reduced the gas when they was talking about 623 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:03,639 Speaker 15: you can't do nothing about the gas when gas was 624 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 15: so high, he said, oh no, I can do something 625 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 15: about it. This is why I talk about stay. So 626 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 15: when people remember that, even though there's more liberal, more 627 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 15: Democrat voters in Florida, people remember what affected their pocket 628 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 15: and that Republican governor made a difference. Kemp and Georgia 629 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 15: made a difference was passing out Kemp cards. He did 630 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 15: the same thing Trump did when he signed his name. 631 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 15: He gave them Kemp cards. 632 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 2: People remember that. 633 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 15: So even if they don't like Republicans, even they don't 634 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 15: like Trump. When you're looking at how that affects your 635 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 15: money daily, it makes a difference.

So 839 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,959 Speaker 6: Alex's story and mine are very similar. Like we had 840 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 6: very strong mothers who are great influences our lives. We're 841 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,640 Speaker 6: both extremely nosy Quincy Jones, how'd you get so smart? 842 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 6: I'm just nosy as hell. I want to know everything 843 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 6: about everything. And when he got his first check in baseball, 844 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 6: he went to ask magic like, Okay, how do I 845 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 6: turn this from a check? Because of wealth and so 846 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,800 Speaker 6: we start talking to the folks on the front row 847 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 6: at the games where business people, and he would trade 848 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 6: his influence for lunch. I'll go to lunch with you. 849 00:32:58,240 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 6: I just need to ask a bunch of questions. That's 850 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 6: what have used to do. And it was just brilliant 851 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 6: because he gained a business acumen from that, got it 852 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 6: basically the NBA while he's playing baseball. Use that to 853 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 6: then buy some real estate and then buy some more. 854 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,960 Speaker 6: I think you worked the first piece of real estate yourself. 855 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 17: Did, Yeah, duplex, duplex for two hundred and fifty thousand. 856 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,240 Speaker 6: So we did a financial literacy episode on money and wealth, 857 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 6: which you know something about us on the Black Effect Network. 858 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 5: That's right, make sure you subscribed to that. 859 00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's actually the episodes out this week. We did 860 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 6: this episode together on financial literacy because we both leave. 861 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,680 Speaker 6: It's a civil rights issue of this generation. You know better, 862 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 6: you do better, and we're talking about black and brown wealth. 863 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 6: How do you how does black and brown create some 864 00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 6: green at scale? It's a conversation that many folks don't have. 865 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 6: Most athletes go broke. Seventy percent, Wow, of all NBA 866 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 6: and NFL players bankrupt within five years of retirement and divorced. 867 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 6: So this brother just defying all the odds. He's cool, 868 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 6: he's a he's a humble dude. He wanted to meet you, guys. 869 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 4: You've been a bit before, a bit before. 870 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, but he wanted to get into it. He 871 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 6: wanted to he want to show. Yeah, he wanted to 872 00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 6: get into it, go to another level. And so it's 873 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 6: it's a beautiful family re reunion. 874 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 4: But let's jump right into it. 875 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 3: So you know what gave you the mindset to say 876 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 3: I want to learn more about investing and making sure 877 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 3: that I have wealth after retirement. Was it the fact 878 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 3: that you've seen so many athletes go bro Was it 879 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 3: the fact that you said, I'm never going back to 880 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 3: where I was, or what was it that said I 881 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 3: want to be different from seventy percent of those other athletes? 882 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:21,799 Speaker 17: I would say that I saw my mother work at 883 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 17: General Mortars for about twelve years. She will have the 884 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 17: early shift at three o'clock in the morning to two, 885 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 17: come home now for two hours, and then go serve 886 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 17: tables at night at midnight. 887 00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 5: And I saw this for. 888 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 17: Years and years and years, and I think my life changed. 889 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 17: One day, We're at Publix, which is a supermarket down 890 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 17: in Miami. I was about twelve years old, and the 891 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 17: bill is about seventy five dollars, and I see her 892 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,040 Speaker 17: grab some of her tip money and she got like 893 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 17: fifty six dollars or whatever. And I see that she's 894 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 17: missing like twenty twenty five bucks. And she goes into 895 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 17: another pocket or purse and grabs what I call funny money. 896 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 17: And I said, Mom, what is that funny money? It's 897 00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 17: like red I've never seen money like that only monopoly, 898 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 17: and she kind of with shame in her face, looked 899 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 17: down and she goes, Son, the government is helping us 900 00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,439 Speaker 17: out a little bit this month, and it changed my life. 901 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 17: I mean I can feel it today, and I know 902 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,399 Speaker 17: so many families out there have felt this. And that's 903 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 17: kind of where my ambitious grew. 904 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 6: What we used to call food stamps. Yeah yeah, yeah, 905 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 6: food stamps, But I. 906 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 17: Never seen it raining right, and I think she would 907 00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 17: hide it for me. We were probably food stamps for years. 908 00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 17: She just never disclosed that with me. And then, like 909 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 17: John said, I met with one of my heroes and 910 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 17: mentors and great friend now Magic Johnson, about thirty years 911 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 17: ago and he was going out to dinner with Cookie 912 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 17: and it was near at Labeldale Drive, I think Mastro 913 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,479 Speaker 17: for something, and it was supposed to be a thirty 914 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 17: minute meeting. We met for three hours. He called cooking 915 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 17: and said I'm not coming home. And years later I said, Magic, 916 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 17: why'd you give me like three hours? And I left 917 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 17: with nine notes of papers I still have today. He said, 918 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 17: because you're one of the few athletes that came in 919 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 17: all business on time, that no phone, and you were 920 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,360 Speaker 17: taking notes, so you were engaged, so I engaged with you. 921 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 17: So that's my message to the next generation. It's just 922 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 17: like the reason why I played baseball for so long 923 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 17: is the fundament. Whether it's Jordan or Tiger or Lebron 924 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 17: or Magic or Bird, whoever, it's fundamental in sports that 925 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:07,800 Speaker 17: makes you great. The same thing as in business, you 926 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 17: got to know the rules of engagement, and our young folks, 927 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 17: while they're getting better, there's a lot of room for growth. 928 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 17: To understand the way that money works and the relationship 929 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 17: with money in financial literacy. 930 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 1: So from day one, did you blow any money? Like 931 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: like when you first got your first big check, did 932 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: you blow any of it? 933 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 17: I was fortunate that I played for almost twenty five years, 934 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:25,719 Speaker 17: so I would say from age twenty to thirty, I 935 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 17: made a bunch of mistakes. And then when I realized, 936 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,880 Speaker 17: like sports, when we won the championship with the Yankees 937 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 17: and O nine, we had a squad and we were 938 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 17: as solid as anyone. And in business, the same thing. 939 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 17: You got to create an incredible team that are way 940 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 17: smarter than you, that have complimentary set of skills, but 941 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 17: at the end of the day, ye're the quarterback of 942 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 17: that team. So then I put my lessons behind me. 943 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:46,359 Speaker 17: It's been pretty good ever since. 944 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:47,839 Speaker 4: What was the dumbest thing you bought when you when 945 00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,319 Speaker 4: you first became and made all that money in Major 946 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 4: League Baseball? 947 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 5: One from Miami, so bends and a rolex. If you're 948 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 5: from Miami, you need a rolex. And that's the growth. 949 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 6: That So by the way, me, him and Don Peples 950 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,399 Speaker 6: was going to show a few weeks ago the three 951 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 6: black men, I know, black and brown, same thing. We're 952 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 6: all the same family who have a couple hundred million 953 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 6: dollars in loan facility for real estate on as you know, 954 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 6: this non recourse basis, which means it's no personal guarantees. 955 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 6: That's credibility, and that's where we need to go. Like 956 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,080 Speaker 6: you make money during the day, you build wealth in 957 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,360 Speaker 6: your sleep, and too many of us hooked on that 958 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 6: W need that dollar and get that cash. When we 959 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 6: get that buck and we get that bag, it's useless. 960 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 6: It's called literally cash flow. And if your outflows at 961 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 6: your inflows and your overhead, it will be your downfall. 962 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 6: And if you don't understand financial literacy, somebody's gonna separate 963 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 6: you from your wallet. And this is just more Zero's 964 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,320 Speaker 6: attached to it the first year. Every athlete spends everything 965 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 6: to get Yeah, every you know, it's just it's natural. 966 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 6: You know. 967 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 4: Growing up in Queen's there was nobody around me making money. 968 00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 5: Right, We were all the same. 969 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 4: We didn't know anything about financial literacy. 970 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 5: Right. 971 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 4: My son goes to University of Miami, calls me yesterday, 972 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 4: him and his friends about to buy a restaurant, which 973 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,480 Speaker 4: is crazy because at twenty years old, I wasn't thinking 974 00:37:59,520 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 4: about that. 975 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 3: But it's the mindset and the people that he's around. 976 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 3: So for people listening, and they might not have somebody 977 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 3: around him that is knowledgeable in business. They might not 978 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,080 Speaker 3: have somebody around him that knows where to put money 979 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 3: or what to invest in on how to do it. 980 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 3: What do you tell those in people to say, Okay, 981 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 3: I don't have a magic to speak to you know 982 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 3: what I mean.

I wanted to be around Cay Ripken, Keith Hernandez, 989 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 17: Doc Goood and Strawberry because they had sets of skills 990 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 17: that I needed and I wanted.

Our community black and brown, 998 00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 17: the number one issue is self esteem issue, and they 999 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 17: don't want to engage. They don't want to engage in 1000 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 17: a business conversation because they don't want to be embarrassed. 1001 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 17: That's Wor're some of the most prideful people in the world, 1002 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 17: but we pay around on time. We're hardworking people. We 1003 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 17: have tremndous heart and grit, but we don't want to 1004 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 17: be embarrassed. That's why Shark Tank works so well. You 1005 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 17: get an education, we'll get it entertainment, and the America 1006 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 17: gets an NBA from Shark Tank.

But twenty to 1017 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 17: thirty is your extended education. And then once you get 1018 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 17: into the thirties you open up that that black book. 1019 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 17: How we say your your ladyships, right, because when you're 1020 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 17: eighty five, right, you look back, your net worth is 1021 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:56,240 Speaker 17: going to resemble your network. 1022 00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 5: Amen.

I think if you talk to most athletes 1043 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 17: and you do a secret Paul, probably ninety percent of 1044 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:52,879 Speaker 17: more will tell you I would love to own part 1045 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 17: of a team someday. Who doesn't want to convert from 1046 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 17: player to owner? Right that that's the American way. We 1047 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 17: took a long run at the Mets and we can't. 1048 00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 17: And second to Steve Cohen, thank god, because you're doing 1049 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 17: a phenomenal job and we're having a great time with 1050 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 17: the Timbules and the Links. Links almost won a championship 1051 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 17: a couple of days ago, came up a little short 1052 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 17: but very proud of our young women. Look, this is 1053 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,400 Speaker 17: the ultimate dream. To be in room with Adam Silver 1054 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:17,440 Speaker 17: and thirty other owners. It's pretty spectacular. And I look 1055 00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,479 Speaker 17: at that and talk about imposter syndrome. You're seeing Mark Cuban, 1056 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 17: you're seeing Jim Dolan, You're seeing Tony Wrestler. You're seeing 1057 00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,800 Speaker 17: guys like Mark Lazerie, people that I've looked up and 1058 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,719 Speaker 17: admired and studied my whole kind of adult life. And 1059 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 17: now you're in the room with them as colleagues. It's 1060 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,360 Speaker 17: really an incredible feat. Yeah, I've been dreaming about it, 1061 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 17: probably for a long time and finally made the move. 1062 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,000 Speaker 3: I just got to ask the sport questions. Since we're 1063 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 3: on sports, how about them damn Yankees? Oh man, how 1064 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 3: does it feel to see what is taking so long 1065 00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 3: to get back to? And what do you think about 1066 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,399 Speaker 3: the Yankees now? It seems like baseball is more exciting now. 1067 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 3: I'm watching the games more. The games are a lot faster, 1068 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 3: it's fast pacing. So is your what is your thoughts 1069 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 3: on baseball now? 1070 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:54,239 Speaker 9: Yeah? 1071 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 17: I'm so excited. This is baseball has needed this moment 1072 00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,600 Speaker 17: for at least a decade. I'm so hired. Of people 1073 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:02,400 Speaker 17: saying baseball was born and old. Then look we went 1074 00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 17: through a little bit. They got born, but get Commissioner 1075 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:07,879 Speaker 17: Rob Manford and Tony Clark, the head of the Union 1076 00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 17: of the Players, and they came up with the clock 1077 00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:12,840 Speaker 17: right and made it a lot better pace made the 1078 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,840 Speaker 17: bigger basis. Now they look like Domino's Pizza right right. 1079 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,879 Speaker 17: Base It is a game that's driven by markets and superstars, 1080 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 17: in tradition and history, and this world series. 1081 00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:22,799 Speaker 5: Here has it all. 1082 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:26,240 Speaker 17: This is two franchises that have the two richest franchises 1083 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 17: in revenue, in star power global Yankee may be the 1084 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 17: number one franchise in the world, Dodgers may be top five. 1085 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 17: And I'm talking about ative sports, football, soccer, you name, yeah, yeah, 1086 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 17: number one. The Yankees are in that top five, right 1087 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 17: and when you look at the Yankees, conglomerate is well 1088 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 17: worth over ten billion. When you look at the Dodgers, 1089 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 17: well worth over ten billion. Okay, I would say there's 1090 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,400 Speaker 17: Otani and Judge as two biggest stars as you can have. 1091 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 17: You're gonna have probably fifteen million people watching Japan, another 1092 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 17: fifteen or twenty watching here. The fan basis, it's interesting 1093 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,080 Speaker 17: when you go to Dodger Stadium. There's three type of 1094 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 17: fan bases. You have the corporate financial institutions and Hollywood. 1095 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:04,120 Speaker 17: You have the Mexicans that you know at last Fernando ven. 1096 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 5: As well, who died. 1097 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 17: He was a big pioneer in that movement. And then 1098 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 17: the other third is now Japanese. They're printing money like 1099 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 17: it is no one's business because of Otani and obviously 1100 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 17: the success they've had with Mark Walters to Boldi. They 1101 00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:19,840 Speaker 17: have an incredible ownerships, but they've had one championship in 1102 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 17: thirty seven years. The Yankees have one championship in twenty 1103 00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 17: four years. So both franchise are going to be starving. 1104 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 17: Tickets that too on today are going for forty thousand dollars. 1105 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 17: Behind him played one ticket, so if you want to 1106 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 17: that's eighty grand. 1107 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 5: Eighty grand. Beer is probably four thousand. 1108 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,319 Speaker 17: So it's it's going to be the most watched World 1109 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 17: Series since the Cubs, and you want you won right that? 1110 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 17: The last one was nine so we haven't been there 1111 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 17: in fifteen years, So bring the glory days back to 1112 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 17: the Bronx. 1113 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 16: My question, don't I don't know much about the players. 1114 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 16: It's not about the players. My question is about it's 1115 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:52,800 Speaker 16: back to the family stuff you were talking about. My 1116 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 16: first thought was, so that moment with your mom changed 1117 00:43:56,280 --> 00:44:00,399 Speaker 16: your thoughts on money and building money in family? How 1118 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 16: do you keep now you got all these franchises and 1119 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 16: all this stuff, how do you keep Like you take 1120 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 16: care of a lot of people, but how do you 1121 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 16: set your boundaries where it's like no, because you got 1122 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 16: to keep the money. 1123 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:09,959 Speaker 4: To make the money. 1124 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 16: But you also grew up watching so many people not 1125 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 16: have Like what's that battle like for you? How do 1126 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 16: you be like, no, I can't do that. That makes 1127 00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 16: no sense, right? 1128 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 6: Discipline. 1129 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,080 Speaker 17: So, first of all, I'm almost fifty now, so I've 1130 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 17: had a lot of learning experience. I would say when 1131 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 17: I was in my twenties and thirties, that was a 1132 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 17: lot more challenging, right, But now when you're running businesses, 1133 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,400 Speaker 17: you can give people opportunities where they can win. So 1134 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,560 Speaker 17: as an example, my sister does on my personal real estate. 1135 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 17: So if I'm buying a house for you know, a dollar, 1136 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 17: she's making you know three percent of that or six 1137 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 17: percent of that, and my brother does. 1138 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:42,360 Speaker 6: But they got to be to be competent. 1139 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 17: They know I don't play that game. You got to 1140 00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 17: be by the book. There's no nepotism. I'm a very 1141 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 17: tough boss I would say that. 1142 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 5: But here are the. 1143 00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 17: Rules, rules of engagement, and you played by them, you're 1144 00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 17: gonna get first bid.

You can't get a decent home 1341 00:52:47,120 --> 00:52:49,839 Speaker 6: loan at eating below seven hundred, can't get a decent 1342 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,879 Speaker 6: auto loan below at six point fifty.

You've got to be 1350 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:15,200 Speaker 6: financially literate, and everybody can be a winner at this game. 1351 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:16,920 Speaker 6: I'd love to come back at some point. We need 1352 00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:19,279 Speaker 6: to talk about a whole this whole thing or relationship capital, 1353 00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 6: which you talked about a little bit, like behind all 1354 00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:24,839 Speaker 6: of us is a backer, sure, a partner that we're 1355 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 6: not talking about magic has it.

They feel like that's a 1361 00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:41,040 Speaker 16: bad thing. A lot of people, not everybody, but a 1362 00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:43,120 Speaker 16: lot of people in our community feel like capitalism is 1363 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:45,160 Speaker 16: a horrible thing. Having people back you as a horrible 1364 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:45,719 Speaker 16: thing as well too. 1365 00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:48,359 Speaker 6: Yeah, so people say, let's go for and set further.

The system is rig so that you don't 1371 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:03,800 Speaker 6: think you can succeed. The money's not evil. It's the 1372 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 6: love of money that's evil. It's the greed and bassiar. 1373 00:54:07,560 --> 00:54:10,880 Speaker 6: Angel Jung says that men and women fail for three reasons, arrogance, pride, 1374 00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 6: and greed. What did Malcolm X say.

There are about one 1384 00:54:43,200 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 6: hundred trillion dollars about to co hit the market in 1385 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,920 Speaker 6: the next ten years. All these baby boomers are retiring 1386 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:50,840 Speaker 6: at the same time.

Kids don't want the business. Those businesses 1389 00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 6: have cash flow, client lists, real estate, a brand. I'll 1390 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 6: say a minute ago, bring me an asset for ten 1391 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:03,440 Speaker 6: million that I can get for eight million, and you 1392 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 6: have the upside between eight and ten. So if you 1393 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:07,880 Speaker 6: come to me and say I have a startup idea, 1394 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 6: give me a million dollars so I'm gonna get out 1395 00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 6: of here right.

Non 1401 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,880 Speaker 6: recourse mean no personal guarantee. Wall Street does that all dea. 1402 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,920 Speaker 6: It's called private equity. So you got literally trillions of 1403 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:37,520 Speaker 6: dollars with businesses that are about to hit the market, 1404 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,440 Speaker 6: and people listening to this can go become capitalists right 1405 00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:45,520 Speaker 6: now with an existing cash flow business, existing assets, existing employees. 1406 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,680 Speaker 6: They're not no risk, but low risk because it's already successful. 1407 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,719 Speaker 6: So we need to stop being self employment projects because 1408 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 6: ninety six percent of all black businesses don't have an employee. 1409 00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 6: I don't know what the Latino numbers are, but you 1410 00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 6: but again, you bill wealth and your sleep is compounding. 1411 00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:01,719 Speaker 6: This is a huge opportunity. 1412 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,160 Speaker 17: So all of us here walking to opportunities every single day, 1413 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 17: but it's taking your eyeballs and your brain and your 1414 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:10,880 Speaker 17: ears to think about opportunities when you hear them.

But you know, when he said 1613 01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:40,480 Speaker 18: he didn't want to get involved with the politics, I 1614 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 18: told him, you know, I don't think that was his 1615 01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:45,320 Speaker 18: choice because once he did that George Floyd thing, he 1616 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:47,720 Speaker 18: put his smack dab in the middle of the biggest 1617 01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:50,120 Speaker 18: leading one of the biggest protests this world has ever seen. 1618 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:52,240 Speaker 18: So a lot of things come with that, a lot 1619 01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:53,600 Speaker 18: of good, a lot of bad, but a lot of 1620 01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:55,800 Speaker 18: things come with that.

I mean, 1689 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:32,240 Speaker 18: he had these little girls running the triangle offense with 1690 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:34,560 Speaker 18: take some grown men a long time to learn. 1691 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:37,280 Speaker 5: He had these girls practicing four or five days a week, 1692 01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 5: three hours a day. 1693 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:40,800 Speaker 18: Like the thing about COVID, he didn't take nothing light 1694 01:07:40,880 --> 01:07:43,160 Speaker 18: when it came to basketball. So these were little young girls, 1695 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:45,560 Speaker 18: but they were running the Lakers offense to a t. 1696 01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:48,000 Speaker 18: He was like a drill stargeant with it. But you 1697 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:50,000 Speaker 18: could tell he loved it. You know, all those little 1698 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:51,720 Speaker 18: girls loved him and looked up to him, and just 1699 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,080 Speaker 18: the passion behind that was. 1700 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:55,040 Speaker 5: Beautiful to see for me. 1701 01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:58,000 Speaker 14: I think seeing meeting him as a teenager and seeing 1702 01:07:58,040 --> 01:07:59,720 Speaker 14: him grow into the icon he was. 1703 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:00,760 Speaker 5: I just admired that. 1704 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:02,800 Speaker 14: You know, with so many players and basketball players you 1705 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,560 Speaker 14: come across doing AAU and traveling, you know, coming up 1706 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:07,640 Speaker 14: as a teenager, you see so many people that's supposed 1707 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:08,240 Speaker 14: to be great. 1708 01:08:08,080 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 5: That don't live up to it. You know what I'm saying. 1709 01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 5: He lived up to it and exceeded it. 1710 01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 14: So you know, just to be able to sit there 1711 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,160 Speaker 14: to talk to him after our careers, you know what 1712 01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:16,720 Speaker 14: I mean, and go through the memories, you know what 1713 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 14: I'm saying. 1714 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 5: Then you know before he passed them and everything. To me, 1715 01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:21,080 Speaker 5: what do you think about the Lakers? Now? 1716 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:23,320 Speaker 4: We see Bronnie played the last two games and people 1717 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:24,240 Speaker 4: are on Brownie's ass. 1718 01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:26,080 Speaker 14: That's a beautiful I show him there we got in 1719 01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:28,280 Speaker 14: the car with That's the dopest picture when you're helping 1720 01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 14: his dad up there that's the dope. 1721 01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:31,160 Speaker 5: Whoever hate die. 1722 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:34,560 Speaker 18: Yeah, I mean I think if anyone deserves this opportunity 1723 01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:36,200 Speaker 18: to play with his son, I think it's him, you 1724 01:08:36,280 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 18: know what I mean. And and the fact that that 1725 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:40,360 Speaker 18: whole thing was orchestrated for him to get to the 1726 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:41,599 Speaker 18: Lakers is amazing. 1727 01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:42,400 Speaker 11: And I was, I was. 1728 01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 18: I had a moment this past summer because my twins 1729 01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:46,559 Speaker 18: are fifteen now, so I take them and play against 1730 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:48,280 Speaker 18: grown men. And I remember one time me and the 1731 01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,240 Speaker 18: twins were on the same team playing and we was hooping. 1732 01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 18: I'm just like, man, this is so dope. I couldn't 1733 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 18: imagine this on the highest level. So to me, I mean, 1734 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:56,320 Speaker 18: the kid was a fifty fifth pick. I mean, the 1735 01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 18: fifty fifth pick doesn't even make it. So all these 1736 01:08:58,280 --> 01:09:01,639 Speaker 18: crazy expectations for him earlier ridiculous, like allow him to develop. 1737 01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:03,479 Speaker 18: But you know, we don't live in a world where 1738 01:09:03,479 --> 01:09:05,920 Speaker 18: development is allowed, especially on the highest level. So I 1739 01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,760 Speaker 18: think from a father's son aspect, is incredible. But you know, 1740 01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:10,599 Speaker 18: the Lakers are one of those teams where you got 1741 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:12,120 Speaker 18: to produce what have you've done for me lately? And 1742 01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:13,760 Speaker 18: they haven't necessarily done that. So it's going to be 1743 01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 18: interesting you know scrutinage year. 1744 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:17,680 Speaker 16: I think we were talking about that earlier. Do you 1745 01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:20,240 Speaker 16: think that Bronni will actually have the chance to develop? 1746 01:09:20,240 --> 01:09:21,840 Speaker 16: But you feel like people going to pigeonhold him so. 1747 01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:23,640 Speaker 14: Much that it might get you even more of a 1748 01:09:23,760 --> 01:09:25,960 Speaker 14: chance to develop because his father's death, Like that's the 1749 01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 14: motivation you have, and he's seeing what it takes to 1750 01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:30,960 Speaker 14: be great. So all that is in him already, and 1751 01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 14: now he's in the in the in the facilities where 1752 01:09:33,520 --> 01:09:36,080 Speaker 14: you have everything here to be great. I think I think, yes, 1753 01:09:36,160 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 14: everything you need, and I think he's definitely gonna blosm mover. 1754 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 18: And I also think too, I mean, I don't think 1755 01:09:39,800 --> 01:09:42,080 Speaker 18: you look at Bronnie in the same light as you 1756 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:43,040 Speaker 18: look at lebron. 1757 01:09:46,880 --> 01:09:47,080 Speaker 5: Try. 1758 01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:48,479 Speaker 18: I just think I think he's going to be a 1759 01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:50,360 Speaker 18: very solid role player. I mean, he's got a high 1760 01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:53,400 Speaker 18: high i Q place defense, can make the right play, 1761 01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 18: can shoot the ball. So I just think he needed 1762 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:57,160 Speaker 18: a little bit more time to develop, and now he's 1763 01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:59,160 Speaker 18: developing on the biggest stage. But I think, you know, 1764 01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:01,760 Speaker 18: two three, four years, he's going to be a very 1765 01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 18: solid rotational player. 1766 01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:03,680 Speaker 5: All Right. 1767 01:10:03,680 --> 01:10:06,000 Speaker 3: We got more with Steven Jackson and Matt Bonnes from 1768 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:08,439 Speaker 3: all the Smoke podcasts.

And you know, 1788 01:10:56,479 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 18: we've been able to transition from not just a sports 1789 01:10:59,320 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 18: show to just kind of a more of a culturally 1790 01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:03,400 Speaker 18: relevant show, you know when we're talking to the Kevin's 1791 01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:04,800 Speaker 18: and the Wills and the Jada's and the. 1792 01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 5: Jamis and and the VP. 1793 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:09,120 Speaker 18: So I just think, you know, high level conversations with 1794 01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:11,640 Speaker 18: high level people, and you know, being able to be 1795 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:13,560 Speaker 18: celebrated with that. I mean, if I'm not mistaken with 1796 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 18: the first podcasts with the coffee table book, man, so 1797 01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:18,920 Speaker 18: I think it's it's it's a tremendous opportunity. We're very 1798 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,400 Speaker 18: thankful for it and and hope that everyone checks it out. 1799 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,120 Speaker 16: How did how did you guys know it was time 1800 01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:24,880 Speaker 16: to You talk a lot about transition, that it was 1801 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:27,759 Speaker 16: time to transition in and like lean into like okay, 1802 01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 16: the podcast, the merch like just the business side of things, 1803 01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:32,840 Speaker 16: Like was that a switch? It probably was planned, But 1804 01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:34,240 Speaker 16: when did you know, like okay, it's trying to jump 1805 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:34,680 Speaker 16: the fence now. 1806 01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:35,439 Speaker 5: Man. 1807 01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:38,479 Speaker 18: The reason why I left the NBA the first year 1808 01:11:38,520 --> 01:11:40,519 Speaker 18: of a three year deal, I happened to win a 1809 01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:42,559 Speaker 18: championship with Golden State and I wouldn't get to get 1810 01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:45,560 Speaker 18: after you got planned. I wasn't get a chance to 1811 01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:47,720 Speaker 18: my kids, you know what I mean? So you know, 1812 01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 18: it was kind of a perfect storm when we won 1813 01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:52,920 Speaker 18: a championship and I was ready to move. So I 1814 01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,720 Speaker 18: was just kind of excited. And I think sometimes how 1815 01:11:56,320 --> 01:11:59,280 Speaker 18: why athletes have a hard time transitioning because they don't 1816 01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:01,600 Speaker 18: get to leave on their on accord. Most of the 1817 01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:05,320 Speaker 18: time it's injuries or a reputation, or just teams don't 1818 01:12:05,320 --> 01:12:07,360 Speaker 18: want to know more. But you know, I was someone 1819 01:12:07,400 --> 01:12:08,920 Speaker 18: that just you know, I was in the midst of 1820 01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:10,640 Speaker 18: a contract and I'm just like, man, you know, this 1821 01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:12,960 Speaker 18: is the blessing we won. I want I'm missing so 1822 01:12:13,080 --> 01:12:15,560 Speaker 18: much time with my sons, my father first, so you 1823 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:19,080 Speaker 18: know that was my transitioning reason. And then once I transition, 1824 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 18: I'm like, damn, what's next. You know, I had invested 1825 01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:23,280 Speaker 18: well and you know, had some things moving, but I 1826 01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:25,240 Speaker 18: knew I was still needed to find something to do. 1827 01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:28,200 Speaker 18: And you know, media came knocking for both of us. 1828 01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:30,599 Speaker 18: You know, we kind of ran with it. So, I mean, 1829 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,760 Speaker 18: Jack is the kind of guy that you know, he 1830 01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:35,759 Speaker 18: trusts very few, so if you're in his trust circle, 1831 01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:37,760 Speaker 18: he's going to listen to you. And when I pitched 1832 01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:40,000 Speaker 18: the idea, he trusted me to run with it and 1833 01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 18: make it happen, and you know that's what I was 1834 01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:42,439 Speaker 18: able to do. 1835 01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:44,400 Speaker 4: I want to ask some basketball question before y'll get 1836 01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:46,320 Speaker 4: about of here, Klay Thompson, what you think about him 1837 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:48,400 Speaker 4: leaving the war is and you think it was time 1838 01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:48,920 Speaker 4: for him to go? 1839 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:51,519 Speaker 5: I think it's a breath of fresh air for him. 1840 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:53,840 Speaker 5: I mean some guys need that doing their career. You 1841 01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:56,360 Speaker 5: know what I mean. You've played it service, Bob for 1842 01:12:56,439 --> 01:12:58,800 Speaker 5: so long. It's a bad feel in the body. 1843 01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:00,920 Speaker 14: I ain't won last couple of years, so a lot 1844 01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:02,840 Speaker 14: of times they're going to try to find somebody to 1845 01:13:02,880 --> 01:13:04,880 Speaker 14: blame it on. And it fell on Clay, you know 1846 01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:07,200 Speaker 14: what I'm saying, which which is unfortunate because he's the 1847 01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:08,920 Speaker 14: reason why they have a big part why they have 1848 01:13:08,960 --> 01:13:10,120 Speaker 14: all those championships over there. 1849 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:12,559 Speaker 5: But this is how professional sports goals. Yeah, that's how 1850 01:13:12,600 --> 01:13:12,960 Speaker 5: it goes. 1851 01:13:13,280 --> 01:13:14,880 Speaker 14: And I think it's great for him because he's landed 1852 01:13:14,920 --> 01:13:16,760 Speaker 14: in the spot where he can do what he do 1853 01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 14: best with two of the best one on one players 1854 01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:20,920 Speaker 14: ever and Kyrie and Luca he could spot up and 1855 01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:22,960 Speaker 14: shoot jumpers. So I think I think it's a great, 1856 01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:25,240 Speaker 14: great situation for him because I've been in a situation 1857 01:13:25,360 --> 01:13:28,160 Speaker 14: where I was somewhere and I needed to go to 1858 01:13:28,240 --> 01:13:30,360 Speaker 14: a different team to be to flourish and be a 1859 01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:31,680 Speaker 14: better player when I came to Golden State. 1860 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:35,519 Speaker 5: So that's kind the same for him. Clay is a hooper. Yeah, 1861 01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:36,680 Speaker 5: oh yeah, he played on both ends. 1862 01:13:36,960 --> 01:13:37,479 Speaker 6: W NBA. 1863 01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:40,559 Speaker 4: What are your thoughts this year? What a new excitement, 1864 01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:43,840 Speaker 4: new life. Sometimes I ain't go front. It feels better 1865 01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:46,320 Speaker 4: than the NBA is it's what's your thoughts on WNBA? 1866 01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:49,880 Speaker 14: The women's game is perier, man, you know what I'm saying. 1867 01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 14: They all played the right way. It's refreshing to watch. 1868 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:54,840 Speaker 14: It's good to see them start to get their money 1869 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,759 Speaker 14: and get their attention that they deserve. I'm a hooper, 1870 01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:00,560 Speaker 14: so I'm all for anybody that's hooping, that's putting in 1871 01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:02,000 Speaker 14: that work, you know what I'm saying, that's grinded all 1872 01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:03,519 Speaker 14: these years to get to the top of I'm happy 1873 01:14:03,960 --> 01:14:04,280 Speaker 14: that they. 1874 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:06,200 Speaker 5: They just do. I think the growth of the game 1875 01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:06,879 Speaker 5: is tremendous. 1876 01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:08,560 Speaker 18: You know the fact that we're talking about it and 1877 01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:11,439 Speaker 18: seeing it on ESPN and all the highlights and and 1878 01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:14,559 Speaker 18: and you know, we're doing a piece that I'm excited 1879 01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:16,880 Speaker 18: about on injuries and caith and Clark and just their 1880 01:14:16,960 --> 01:14:19,120 Speaker 18: dynamic that they brought to the game, and and the 1881 01:14:19,280 --> 01:14:22,320 Speaker 18: vehicle of new fans they brought. And you've heard kind 1882 01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:24,400 Speaker 18: of some of the good and the bad that have 1883 01:14:24,520 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 18: come with that. You know, Angel spoke out on just 1884 01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 18: the negativity and the racism that'll come from some fans 1885 01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:30,040 Speaker 18: and kind of using them. 1886 01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:32,360 Speaker 4: But is that normal though, because you know, it seems 1887 01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:33,960 Speaker 4: like that's normal in the league. I'm sure that you 1888 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:36,120 Speaker 4: guys have been called a million and one names. 1889 01:14:36,200 --> 01:14:37,320 Speaker 5: Absolutely absolutely. 1890 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:47,680 Speaker 18: Utah, yeah, I just got and yeah that's back when 1891 01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 18: you still had the space between your teeth. 1892 01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:52,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
