I'm gonna take you myself. 86 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: I usually recommend Windows Defender since it's natively inside the 87 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 2: operating system and works just fine, most of the A 88 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 2: V software is problematic. Since you're dealing with an enterprise version, 89 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: they are actually dragging down the browse security standards. Anyway, 90 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: five stars, jusual, thanks, thank you, And then last week 91 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 2: got absolutely fantastic from Bill Samuelson, who says I wasn't 92 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 2: going to bother writing a review because who reads them anyway. 93 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: You look at the five star rating and you're like, yep, 94 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: let's give it a go. But then I read the 95 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 2: negative reviews, comment slash reviews, and like a poor review 96 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: for the movie Moonlight, I seriously questioned the motivation. Don't 97 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 2: listen to the haters who are annoyed with the show's 98 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 2: emphasis on the black perspective and curse words. You come 99 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: to this podcast for the former, and if you don't 100 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 2: like the latter, you might be an infant I'm just 101 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 2: I'm just picturing these people cringe at the F word. 102 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: You know, it's the same folks who don't even blink 103 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 2: when they hear the N word. Good riddings anyways, Love 104 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 2: you guys. Like summing the TV show in the early 105 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 2: two thousands, I don't want this to ever end. Hey, 106 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: you know what, thank you, because one of the things 107 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people take for granted, and 108 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 2: this is what almost anything people like. They don't leave reviews, 109 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 2: and they don't say something's good a lot of times, 110 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 2: but they don't. They kind of slipped by the fact 111 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 2: that people that don't like shit almost never let up 112 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 2: and then away. And then as a I can know, 113 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 2: I can say this as a creative person, negative things 114 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 2: just kind of stick out. And if you're not constantly 115 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: kind of reminded that what you do is important and 116 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: valuable to people and that people appreciate it, you can 117 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: lose focus of why what you do is important to 118 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: watch fun or if anyone's digging it. 119 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 3: You know, you know your favorite shitt is gone and 120 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 3: you don't know what happened. 121 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean essentially your show. You know, a show 122 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: like this and whatever people are creating, it's just shining 123 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: a light out into the world, into the darkness, hoping 124 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: for a reflection back. You know, that's really all it is, 125 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 2: like a light house or something. You know, And if 126 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 2: people never bothered to say anything, then it does feel 127 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 2: like you're slugging through, threw a thankless task for nothing, 128 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 2: you know. So I'm glad that you took the time 129 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 2: out to write a review, even though you said you 130 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 2: didn't really feel like it at first, or you looked 131 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 2: and said, well, everybody's leaving a positive review, because everybody isn't. 132 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: We just don't read those to you guys when they 133 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 2: send in the bad ones. But yeah, well they definitely 134 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: still say fucked up shit. 135 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 3: Sometimes you ain't even five stars. We don't read those either. 136 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 5: M h. 137 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: All right, let's get into the comments on the website. 138 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 2: This might be a kind of a shorter show. I'm 139 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: winking at some of these things. Last week we had 140 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 2: an episode called Trump Effective Disorder where we had our 141 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 2: girl nicked. 142 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 5: You on. 143 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 2: And somebody left a comment. It was kind of late, 144 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: I believe. Actually two people left comments that were like 145 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 2: Christmas Hawaii, says Nick, You and I are soulmates. I too, 146 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 2: first eat the ridges, then the sides, then the top 147 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: of the on my peanut butter cup, or at least 148 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 2: I used to before I came down with the sugar. 149 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: And yes, it's okay for me to say because I 150 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 2: have it. Hannah says the music for White People News 151 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 2: was the whitest thing ever. It was a huge summer 152 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 2: here in Scandinavia in two thousand and two. The song 153 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: is by the Swedish boy band Kent. The whole song 154 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 2: just transported me back in high school and fangirl days. Yeah, 155 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 2: you really never know who's listening to the show trying 156 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 2: to learn Sweedish, so you might have a chance with 157 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: one of them if you ever saved enough to travel 158 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 2: to that concert.

Those actually 160 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 2: were the days when I felt like there were no 161 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,599 Speaker 2: black people or brown people on the planet.

But yeah, 293 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 2: you know, it's just that way. You can't really you 294 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: can't really say that that we know, Like we like 295 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 2: to pretend that we know. We like to think that 296 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 2: we know. We like to think we're so educated, so smart. 297 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 5: Lot of shit because Americas take for granted that the 298 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 5: rest of the world learns about our country, but we 299 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 5: don't learn about other areas. 300 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, we don't spend a lot of time like differentiating, 301 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 2: like and even when we learn about stuff in the book, 302 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: it's different between knowing people from there. So you know, 303 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 2: I can learn about South Africa in the book, but 304 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 2: I can't understand the South African accent until I hear 305 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 2: somebody speak that. You know, So I think that matters, 306 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 2: all right, So let me go on. Uh and Big 307 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 2: Daddy too, says I thought.

So 311 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 2: don't know why you would think that falcons Bev says 312 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 2: I enjoyed the discussion with Chris regard to George Lopez. 313 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 2: I was it was nice to get a comedian's perspective. 314 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 2: I saw George Lopez on the Brown Tour Forgot the 315 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 2: Official Name with d L Cedric, Charlie Murphy and Eddie Griffin, 316 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 2: and George was my favorite. When I heard the clip 317 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 2: of his outburst, immediately thought someone must have pissed in 318 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 2: his corn flakes this morning. While I don't agree with 319 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 2: the heckler's response, I did initially think that her standing up. 320 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: Her standing up was more of her joking than protesting, 321 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 2: because I've seen him deal with hecklers in a different way, 322 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 2: like she wanted to be in on the joke and 323 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 2: he took it all the way. Left with that said, 324 00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 2: I won't be giving him any more my money or time. 325 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 2: I actually watched this show on TV Land because even 326 00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:55,439 Speaker 2: if it was just a bad night, like Karen articulated, 327 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 2: I felt a different kind of way about how he 328 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 2: reacted to that woman. Yeah, I mean that's the thing, 329 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,120 Speaker 2: like when you're doing something for the public, your bad 330 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 2: night is not my responsibility.

In a way, it's partly 495 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 2: why I have had a hard time trying to watch 496 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 2: that show and eventually couldn't many there's too many lavish 497 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 2: events happening on plantations where it's no big deal to them. 498 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 2: There was little to nothing said in condolences for those 499 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,160 Speaker 2: that were murdered in the church a few years ago. 500 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 2: Mind you, this is their own backyard. As a matter 501 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 2: of fact, one of the cast members was complaining about 502 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 2: being locked in a bowler dolly when the shooting happened, 503 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 2: rather than being remotely concerned about the victims. Then, hearing 504 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 2: about the Calhoun family and seeing Catherine's tweets glorified Trump 505 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 2: made me go Bravo is canceled. M that is some 506 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 2: hot hots punkin spice, Lotte, you just spilled all over. 507 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 2: You are kicking the cheese off the table, putting the 508 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 2: cherry on top with some really dark Knight says, I 509 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 2: gotta chime in here. When you had the lead up 510 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 2: to that radio house talking about Walker, I thought I 511 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 2: was prepared to hear. I was not ready. I was 512 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: in the gym. I almost dropped some weight on myself. 513 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 2: He was big mad. Paula writs in again one more comment. 514 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 2: The last person used to use a major award show 515 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 2: to decline in the war and bring awareness to something 516 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 2: that needed awareness was Marlon Brando in nineteen seventy fucking 517 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 2: three when he refused the Best Actor Oscar to protest 518 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 2: the treatment of American Indians. Unfortunately, not much has changed, 519 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 2: as it it would have been insanely amazing to see Adele, 520 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 2: one of the world's biggest recording stars, refuse her reward. 521 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 2: I mean, what would she be missing in her life 522 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 2: to have done that? And what could have been the game? 523 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 2: Don't don't these people have any vision for crying out 524 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 2: loud as opposed to aren't they being artists? 525 00:28:59,120 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 6: And all? 526 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 2: Imagine the conversations that could have started. Imagine she had 527 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 2: called it like it is and said that Beyonce created 528 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 2: a work that will be talked about for hundreds of 529 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: years because of its importance. Adele's on grandkids won't remember 530 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 2: twenty five. Yeah, I mean, like I said, I don't 531 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 2: expect that, and I don't. I don't knock anyone for 532 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 2: not doing it, to be honest, because it's so much 533 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 2: to tell someone that their work shouldn't have been appreciated, 534 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 2: Because like I can't like the sweat hours that Adele 535 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 2: puts into her career and into this album, into this tour. 536 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 2: I can't tell her you need to recognize Beyonce is 537 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 2: more important than you, And I think that's why the 538 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 2: shit always will succeeded, because no one ever wants to 539 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 2: get off the podium themselves, you know, like if it's 540 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 2: for like For instance, let's say we got invited to 541 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 2: be on a panel and the panel was gonna be 542 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 2: all men, and they didn't invite Karen. I'm not going 543 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Well, it might be a 544 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 2: promotion from like, oh, this would be good for your brand, 545 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,479 Speaker 2: it'd be good for the black out tips and whatever's 546 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 2: good for you, it's also good for Karen. If Karen 547 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: can't be there and it's only gonna be men represented, 548 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: then what's the point of me being there? 549 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. 550 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 2: Like it's kind of that thing where it's like somebody 551 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 2: has to be willing to give up their seat, you know, 552 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 2: or you know, can Karen go instead of me, or 553 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 2: something like that. If only one of us can be 554 00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 2: up there, and there's already a bunch of men on 555 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 2: the panel, why can't Karen be up there. When we 556 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 2: went to speak in Miami Revocon, it was very important 557 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 2: to me that Karen got to say, got to get 558 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 2: her you know, her talking, because to be honest, there's 559 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 2: already five men on the stage. You know, there's not 560 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 2: much that I'm gonna say that's that much different from 561 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 2: the other guys, And it's important to hear Karen's voice 562 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 2: and a woman's voice up there, you know. So it's 563 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 2: that a thing where like I don't expect the world 564 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 2: to work like that, to be honest, and I don't 565 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 2: knock anyone for not having the foresight to think like 566 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 2: that or being like I don't want to sacrifice my 567 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 2: career for that or whatever at the end, at the 568 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 2: end result for Grammys, Grammys don't matter as much as say, 569 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 2: like oscars do when it comes to like being made. 570 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 2: And at the end of the day, even with oscars, 571 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 2: I don't think oscars matter as much for black people 572 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,280 Speaker 2: as they matter for white people, which is fucked up 573 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 2: just because that's how racism works. Is well, yeah, you 574 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 2: want an Oscar like you got Oscar nominated, But I 575 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 2: don't want to be watching all these black movies, So 576 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 2: I ain't gonna pay money to see your shit, even 577 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 2: though you're the same got the same respect as your 578 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 2: other colleagues. So you know, I don't expect the THELL 579 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 2: to do it. I just think it would be like 580 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 2: so epic, and I think that would be the thing 581 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 2: that would make me excited about an award show, as 582 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 2: if I saw somebody do something like that. But you know, 583 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 2: I understand what that what the Grammys are at this point, 584 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 2: so I can't really, you know, get upset about it. 585 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 3: But I'm old enough from seeing enough. 586 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 5: Wyo, it is what it is, and just check out, 587 00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 5: Like for my self sanity and self perservation, I'll just 588 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 5: check out and be like, well, Twitter the in and 589 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 5: of to tell me afterwards. 590 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I've seen Adele's accepting speech by now, and 591 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 2: it's great, you know, I saw it.

Is an award that has that 607 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 2: racial prejudice component to it, ain't really an award. 608 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: You know. 609 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 2: It's like winning a baseball it's like winning a championship 610 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 2: a world series in baseball before they allow black people 611 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 2: to play, you know, where it's like, yeah, I won. 612 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 5: But. 613 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 2: Did I really did my competition get a fair look? 614 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:35,800 Speaker 2: Or did y'all just get a shit to me because 615 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 2: you refuse to give it to them, Because if that's 616 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: the case, then it's not really it's like you you 617 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 2: really have disrespected everyone in the process. You disrespected me 618 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 2: because people will always look at my award this year 619 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 2: for this album as an award I shouldn't have got. 620 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 2: And then you'll have people that you know, like now 621 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 2: it's tainting it, you know, as opposed to if people 622 00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 2: felt that this institution had a historical he had a 623 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 2: history of getting it right, I think people would just 624 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 2: be like, yeah, that's who, that's what the best album 625 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 2: that year was. But it's that it's gonna be a 626 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 2: bunch of speculation and she may feel bad about it 627 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 2: and all that stuff. 628 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 5: So yeah, and also like and just just me on 629 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,120 Speaker 5: the outside looking in, I said, I'm not a I've 630 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 5: heard that twenty one. 631 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,359 Speaker 3: I rock with twenty one.

I've been at all 810 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,399 Speaker 2: black schools and neighborhoods my whole life until we moved 811 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:47,760 Speaker 2: into high school and the new spot was still mostly 812 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 2: black for all the upper level in advanced class. I 813 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 2: was in there, maybe ninety to ninety slash ten white 814 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 2: from the experience, obviously not strictly on merit, but when 815 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 2: we had career day, I was regurgitating the same shit 816 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,279 Speaker 2: I've been saying since five. I could see myself as 817 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 2: a doctor or a lawyer. When the white girl after 818 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:08,600 Speaker 2: me said she was gonna be a marine biologist and 819 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 2: had asked for her mom about setting up the internships 820 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 2: and shit. Both my parents worked teacher and machinists, and 821 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 2: I was better off than a lot of kids I 822 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,720 Speaker 2: knew growing up. But I had never ever even imagined 823 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:25,319 Speaker 2: the level of specificity when it came to a career. 824 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 2: Before then, she was already setting up the groundwork to 825 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:30,760 Speaker 2: get in position for jobs I had heard in passing 826 00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:34,440 Speaker 2: but never conceptualized. I kept going and where I had 827 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 2: spent my summers work at two or three jobs in 828 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,600 Speaker 2: the marrow. They had been working on their dash thennis 829 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 2: office of their mom's marketing company. Academically, I was probably 830 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 2: top five in the class, so I knew I could 831 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 2: keep up. But it hit me I was already behind 832 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 2: and getting the next step towards the career and the future. Yep, yep, 833 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,320 Speaker 2: a thing about internships. 834 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 3: Then, motherfuckers, he's free. 835 00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 5: Most people go, I cannot work for free, just I 836 00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 5: cannot dedicate a fucking entire summer for nothing. I cannot 837 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,359 Speaker 5: do this without one, and you compensate me. You got 838 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,400 Speaker 5: to compensate me for my time. The motherfuckers are free. 839 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 5: So when your parents have established where they can afford 840 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 5: to send you to Washington, DC or LA or whatever, 841 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,720 Speaker 5: the internship takes you anywhere in the world. 842 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:21,760 Speaker 2: You can get. 843 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 5: Hundreds, sometimes thousands of hours, which a lot of times 844 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 5: start at a very very very young age. So a 845 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 5: lot of times by the time they get to the 846 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:34,759 Speaker 5: twelfth grade, they you know, depend on how much time 847 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 5: and effort. 848 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:38,360 Speaker 3: Has been invested. Sometimes they have hundreds of thousands of hours. 849 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 5: And in the field and the career, you know, you 850 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:48,439 Speaker 5: have to dedicate so much time to various different things. 851 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,719 Speaker 5: They've mixed all that shit out and no time, got 852 00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,720 Speaker 5: that paperwork readit, people sign for it. They got family 853 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:55,800 Speaker 5: members to sign off on shit. So yeah, yeah, like 854 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 5: you said, sometimes it's the thing where you go. Education 855 00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 5: alone sometimes just doesn't cut it when you're blacks in 856 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,840 Speaker 5: certain situations, which is completely unfair. 857 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:09,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, just think about this. Internships is, like you said, 858 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,879 Speaker 2: most of the time unpaid, if paid at all, it's 859 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:18,040 Speaker 2: normally underpaid. So being able to do an internship normally 860 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 2: requires a level of privilege where you have somebody taking 861 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 2: care of your bills, someone that knows, someone that can 862 00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:27,280 Speaker 2: even get you these exclusive internships. Think about their industries 863 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 2: and internships operate in fashion, the media, whether it's magazine, 864 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 2: print media, internet media. Many of those start with free, 865 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 2: unpaid internships. Music, Hollywood, like you know, entertainment, most importantly, politics, 866 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 2: a lot of political interns. That's one of the reasons 867 00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 2: that these industries stay like very very white at the 868 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 2: top is because most of the time you're not gonna 869 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 2: have black kids whose parents have the wherewithal or be 870 00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 2: able to sustain them while they go and spend hours 871 00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:02,840 Speaker 2: and hours and hours doing the thankless job where they 872 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 2: never get paid for it. And it's so it's one 873 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 2: of those things where I think people don't think about 874 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:15,239 Speaker 2: that stuff, but it's definitely a privilege to be able 875 00:47:15,280 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 2: to do that. But people but then those same people 876 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:20,879 Speaker 2: will be able to turn around one day and when 877 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,360 Speaker 2: some black person's like, yeah things are hard because of 878 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:26,239 Speaker 2: this that this, they'll say, well, I had an internship 879 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 2: and I wasn't making any money and look at me, 880 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 2: I'm the CEO, And it's like, who paid for your 881 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 2: rent when you were making nothing? 882 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 3: Around the world? 883 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:37,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, who sent you? How'd you eat? Who sent you 884 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 2: money to eat? Like, you know, it's just nobody wants 885 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:42,960 Speaker 2: to hear that shit. Everybody thinks their story is the hardest. 886 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 2: H the poe was when you watch The Bachelorette now 887 00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:50,360 Speaker 2: that they have a black woman, yes, no?

It'd also be 899 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,680 Speaker 2: interesting to see what percentage of a white audience would 900 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 2: turn out to not be interested in having a black 901 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 2: bachelorette come. 902 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 3: You know. 903 00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:40,680 Speaker 2: And the last episode was just recap of Walking Dead 904 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 2: when we have our man Jeremy from Crown to College 905 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 2: podcast on episode thirteen eighty four, the Long Hair Don't 906 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:50,400 Speaker 2: Care Gang, and we got one comment.

Regular peeps taste 977 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,640 Speaker 2: like that super synthetic, super potent food dye you get 978 00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,680 Speaker 2: in a cheap grocery store bakery cupcake. Icing, and most 979 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:17,239 Speaker 2: people who like them just have feelings of nostalgia. I 980 00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,080 Speaker 2: will say this, though recently, the peas people have diversified 981 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 2: and gone from just reshaping peeps across the holidays to 982 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 2: different flavors. There are still the birds and bunnies of Easter, 983 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 2: the black casts and ghost of Halloween, and the hearts 984 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,480 Speaker 2: of Valentine's Day. They're also making seasonal flavors now, like 985 00:53:33,600 --> 00:53:35,920 Speaker 2: caramel apple and the falls terest screams in the spring 986 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 2: and hot chocolate in the winter. It's the same texture 987 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 2: as an Eastern peak, but the flavors are malder and 988 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:44,800 Speaker 2: less synthetic. Now. When I say less synthetic, I'm not 989 00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:47,560 Speaker 2: talking about real marshmallows. This is more like difference between 990 00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 2: die coke and coke zero. Neither one tastes like actual coke. Still, 991 00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:56,360 Speaker 2: as a person who occasionally really likes science scientifically engineered 992 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:59,279 Speaker 2: food products, seasonal peeps on my jam and those blue 993 00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:02,719 Speaker 2: raspberry the store eggs they made around Jurassic World were 994 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:06,399 Speaker 2: pretty close to any other blue raspberry bomination. I like them. 995 00:54:06,719 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 2: I'm not saying they're good. I'm saying I like them. 996 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 2: Last thought, I cringe that ride eating the kit castright across, 997 00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 2: but who are me to judge. I eat all the 998 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,319 Speaker 2: chocolate off the sides of mine, just like nick Jee 999 00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:20,520 Speaker 2: and I do with Reesis, and then eat the Rafers 1000 00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:23,359 Speaker 2: last kit cast or another candy that does season those 1001 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 2: in different markets, and the cherry blossom spring and green 1002 00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,319 Speaker 2: tea year round from Japan are super good. I've even 1003 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,680 Speaker 2: had a orange vanilla a few times and that was amazing, 1004 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,879 Speaker 2: like a dreamsickle. In other words, I'll try almost any 1005 00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 2: candy at least once, and that's probably how I had 1006 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:43,359 Speaker 2: my brush with pre diabetes. Oops. Love y'all, Gail Marie. 1007 00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 2: This is an excellent email. Thank you. It was very informative. 1008 00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:48,680 Speaker 2: Let me see it's back up. Let me see if 1009 00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 2: I can play this from directly from Skype because Pamela 1010 00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 2: was tripping there and Charen. 1011 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,479 Speaker 1: It's Stephanie. This my first term coloring. I've been listening 1012 00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 1: for sometime and I am actually timing myself so that 1013 00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 1: I make sure I get three minutes. So I am 1014 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,360 Speaker 1: in the middle of listening to your podcast from yesterday, 1015 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,320 Speaker 1: so it made me want to call. 1016 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:18,880 Speaker 6: Regarding the Grammys, I'm in a rough place in that 1017 00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:22,640 Speaker 6: because I actually am a very very large Adele fan, 1018 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 6: and I'm sorry, twenty five was the amazing album. I 1019 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 6: am not a Beyonce stan, I'm a fan, but. 1020 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 1: I'm a fan, and I have to say Lemonade changed 1021 00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 1: my whole thoughts about Beyonce because for me, it was 1022 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:41,080 Speaker 1: like the first complete album I had ever heard. Lemonade 1023 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,320 Speaker 1: is a complete album. It takes you on a journey, 1024 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,120 Speaker 1: which is what a very good album should do. The 1025 00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:51,279 Speaker 1: last time I felt this way about an album was actually, ironically, 1026 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:54,279 Speaker 1: the Miseducation of Lauren Hill. It was kind of like 1027 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 1: that was a complete album, and so is Lemonade. So 1028 00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,759 Speaker 1: to not see it good album of the year over 1029 00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 1: twenty five, it's just thing where you go. But I 1030 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,360 Speaker 1: really like Adele and I really like twenty five. It 1031 00:56:06,480 --> 00:56:09,480 Speaker 1: wasn't better than Lemonade, and everybody knows it. So as 1032 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:13,719 Speaker 1: a black woman watching award show, there's always this thing of, well, 1033 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:15,080 Speaker 1: I know, y'all not gonna give it to the black 1034 00:56:15,120 --> 00:56:17,879 Speaker 1: woman anyway, even though she's the best one there. Even 1035 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:20,680 Speaker 1: though people tuned in, even if they hate Beyonce, they 1036 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 1: tune in just to watch her, just to hate on her. 1037 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:28,320 Speaker 1: Other people tune in to love her, but they just 1038 00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,360 Speaker 1: tune in to hate because they're just hateful people. 1039 00:56:31,920 --> 00:56:34,760 Speaker 6: I feel that way every time I watch the Grammy 1040 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:37,840 Speaker 6: and there are black people nominated end the big category 1041 00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:43,279 Speaker 6: album record and songs, where I'm like, God, I don't 1042 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:45,480 Speaker 6: know if it's gonna go to them, and you just 1043 00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,360 Speaker 6: expect this. I think that's the problem with big award 1044 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,880 Speaker 6: show like the OS and the Grammy's work. You're like, 1045 00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,880 Speaker 6: you can have this abundance of black dominies and you 1046 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 6: just kind of go, but they're probably not gonna give 1047 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,359 Speaker 6: it to them anyway, because that's just how this works. 1048 00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:05,439 Speaker 6: And I'm glad to have this show where I could 1049 00:57:06,920 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 6: hear someone reflect how I feel, even if it's not 1050 00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:12,480 Speaker 6: exactly how I feel, it's kind of like, yeah, that's 1051 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:15,399 Speaker 6: kind of how I feel about these things. So thank 1052 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,640 Speaker 6: you so much for the show. I really enjoy it, 1053 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,240 Speaker 6: and you guys have definitely inspired me to do my 1054 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:22,000 Speaker 6: own podcast. 1055 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:28,080 Speaker 2: So thank you, love you guys, bye, oh, thank you, 1056 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 2: and yeah, man, yeah yeah I can't. Obviously, no one 1057 00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 2: can voice exactly how anybody else feels. But you know, 1058 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 2: I think a lot of black people are frustrated with 1059 00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 2: the you know, these award shows and stuff, and like 1060 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,080 Speaker 2: I said. For me, I've kind of given up. I 1061 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,520 Speaker 2: just don't watch them. You know, it really was the 1062 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 2: vine providence that they show they had to be honesite 1063 00:57:51,240 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 2: performers right before The Walking Dead, because if that shit 1064 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,240 Speaker 2: would have been after nine, I would have probably had 1065 00:57:56,280 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 2: to catch it on YouTube or something. 1066 00:57:57,760 --> 00:57:57,920 Speaker 5: Man. 1067 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:02,320 Speaker 2: But but yeah, it's you know, at the same time, 1068 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,919 Speaker 2: like I don't blame people, and I don't come down 1069 00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:08,920 Speaker 2: on people for being upset about things not working out 1070 00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 2: their way. I mean, are black people not allowed to 1071 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,200 Speaker 2: be fans?

But that's you know, why it's important to 1151 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:21,600 Speaker 2: listen to other people man, you know. 1152 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:26,080 Speaker 5: And that's why I listened to a lot of NPR 1153 01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:31,760 Speaker 5: and they've actually talked about Asian Americans getting it's particularly 1154 01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,120 Speaker 5: their children getting involved in Black Lives Matter and the 1155 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:39,320 Speaker 5: parents now understanding why the children are fighting and defending 1156 01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 5: Black Lives Matter, because you know, it's a separation there, 1157 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,880 Speaker 5: and they go, well, why are you defending something? 1158 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:47,880 Speaker 3: Or why do you care about people that are not us? 1159 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 2: You know, we had that Asian police officer that shot 1160 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:54,600 Speaker 2: a black person, and that was a very visible rift 1161 01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 2: in the community because you had a lot of Asian 1162 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:01,280 Speaker 2: people that were like, why doesn't white prip that protects 1163 01:03:01,320 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 2: police officers who shoot unarmed black people, Why doesn't that 1164 01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:09,200 Speaker 2: extend to this officer. Why isn't art the police protecting him? 1165 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,280 Speaker 2: And they had a point. They weren't. It was clearly 1166 01:03:12,360 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 2: because he wasn't white. But at the same time, that's 1167 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,240 Speaker 2: also the opposite of what black people in that situation 1168 01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:21,520 Speaker 2: wanted because we were like, we just want some accountability 1169 01:03:21,560 --> 01:03:24,480 Speaker 2: from the police. It doesn't matter it could be a 1170 01:03:24,520 --> 01:03:27,040 Speaker 2: black person that shooes him. No one should be marching 1171 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:29,760 Speaker 2: in defense of the officer who shot an unarmed black person, 1172 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:33,760 Speaker 2: like you took a person's life. That's a complicated issue 1173 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:36,040 Speaker 2: and it's you know, all this shit. But it's one 1174 01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:39,200 Speaker 2: of the reasons that I think it's beneficial to listening 1175 01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 2: to other people because you can at least have that 1176 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 2: perspective of like, oh, because you know, I definitely went 1177 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 2: out and read like some other takes on it from 1178 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,480 Speaker 2: Asian people to be like, well, what the fuck are 1179 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 2: y'all marching for? Because I don't understand how y'all can't 1180 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 2: see that this is wrong to support this man, And hey, 1181 01:03:56,920 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 2: y'all can't see that some of the defenses y'all have 1182 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 2: for this man are the same level of anti It's 1183 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:05,400 Speaker 2: almost like, well, a black life ain't worth much, so 1184 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 2: what the fuck are y'all watching for? Why can't he 1185 01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:11,520 Speaker 2: just kill black people too? And it was interesting to 1186 01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:14,920 Speaker 2: kind of see their point of cause I do understand 1187 01:04:14,920 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 2: that point. It's double racism. It's racist, Like how I 1188 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,720 Speaker 2: say about like I know, I said as a joke, 1189 01:04:22,760 --> 01:04:26,360 Speaker 2: But I'm serious, racism be racist even during the execution 1190 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 2: of racism, like a black person saying the same shit 1191 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:34,560 Speaker 2: doesn't get the same like Stacey Dash doesn't necessarily get 1192 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,120 Speaker 2: to go on real time with Bill Marvel malo Yellanapolis. 1193 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:39,280 Speaker 2: Will you know what I mean? That kind of shit 1194 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:42,520 Speaker 2: where it's like even in that case, you know, like 1195 01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 2: certain people are gonna lose their jobs and get filtered 1196 01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 2: out while being racist. I think that's a very real thing, 1197 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:58,160 Speaker 2: you know, And I think while there's something to be 1198 01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:00,520 Speaker 2: said there, for a lot of us, it's like I 1199 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,640 Speaker 2: just don't care, Like I don't care the Stacey Dash 1200 01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 2: lost her job and other people that promote racism got promotions. 1201 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,120 Speaker 2: I don't care, like you're all bad to me. And 1202 01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:12,080 Speaker 2: that's the same thing with that agent officer they shot 1203 01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:14,760 Speaker 2: the black person. I don't care like and I wouldn't 1204 01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 2: care if you were black. I wouldn't care if you 1205 01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:19,000 Speaker 2: do that man's brother, you gotta go to jail, like 1206 01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:21,680 Speaker 2: you can't be out here just killing people and getting 1207 01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:25,000 Speaker 2: away with it. And at the same time, it's fucked 1208 01:05:25,040 --> 01:05:26,640 Speaker 2: up that they just left that dude out to dry 1209 01:05:26,800 --> 01:05:30,200 Speaker 2: like all the public, like all the defense they have, 1210 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:34,160 Speaker 2: all the unions and shit, they always they didn't give 1211 01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,600 Speaker 2: a fuck.

Allegra A says hello again Roder Karen. 1259 01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 2: I had to stop writing in the midst of the 1260 01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:11,600 Speaker 2: discussion you two had about the mis education of black kids. 1261 01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:13,960 Speaker 2: I am in my early forties and I decided three 1262 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:16,040 Speaker 2: years ago to go to school for nursing. I've been 1263 01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 2: in and out of various community colleges for the last 1264 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:20,120 Speaker 2: twenty years. Without getting into my life story, I want 1265 01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:22,000 Speaker 2: to tell you too that you have helped me a 1266 01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:28,719 Speaker 2: lot with with uh oh, with the struggles I've experienced 1267 01:08:28,760 --> 01:08:31,760 Speaker 2: as a black woman. The discussion, the discussion about how 1268 01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,320 Speaker 2: black heads are filtered through quote unquote the system is 1269 01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:36,680 Speaker 2: one that is very nuanced, and I appreciate you having it. 1270 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,400 Speaker 2: I always beat myself up for not having quote unquote 1271 01:08:39,439 --> 01:08:42,200 Speaker 2: figured this shit out until age forty, But you saying 1272 01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 2: that we don't know, we don't know. What we don't 1273 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,320 Speaker 2: know solidifies while we as a group, and me in particular, 1274 01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:49,200 Speaker 2: has such a hard time. I know I'm smart, but 1275 01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:52,600 Speaker 2: I still have doubt because information is not always accessible 1276 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,840 Speaker 2: to us. I came from a poor family in a 1277 01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 2: small town, so I did not know how to move 1278 01:08:57,280 --> 01:08:59,920 Speaker 2: forward or how to get outside influences that will help 1279 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:02,400 Speaker 2: me move forward. It's still a struggle today, but now 1280 01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:05,040 Speaker 2: I'm grown, I have somewhat of a voice yo on 1281 01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 2: some real shit. That is why net neutrality and internet 1282 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:15,600 Speaker 2: access is really like, in my opinion, like even to 1283 01:09:15,760 --> 01:09:20,920 Speaker 2: some extent, maybe even prioritize over racial shit. It's like 1284 01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:23,920 Speaker 2: the next thing because one of the biggest equalizers that 1285 01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 2: we have is access to the Internet, because that's one 1286 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:28,720 Speaker 2: of the ways you can find out what the fuck 1287 01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:31,559 Speaker 2: you don't know, because somebody else has asked that question, 1288 01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 2: somebody else has gone through that thing, someone else has 1289 01:09:34,200 --> 01:09:36,760 Speaker 2: had that issue, and someone else found an answer, and 1290 01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:39,519 Speaker 2: it's right there on the fucking Internet. But if you 1291 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:41,799 Speaker 2: don't have the Internet, if you don't have a computer, 1292 01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:43,960 Speaker 2: if you don't have access to it, if your internet 1293 01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:48,800 Speaker 2: is slow and janki and spotty and shits right, Like 1294 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 2: there's a lot of stuff that people can do that's 1295 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:55,840 Speaker 2: amazing that they can learn from the Internet, that they 1296 01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:58,800 Speaker 2: are learned on the Internet and stuff like that. And 1297 01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,760 Speaker 2: you know, it just seems to me like there's opportunities 1298 01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:11,759 Speaker 2: that they're making the world. I don't mean it's like cariery, 1299 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:13,880 Speaker 2: but it's making the world flatter, you know, it's making 1300 01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:18,360 Speaker 2: the world smaller all because people have opportunities. And there's 1301 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:20,760 Speaker 2: other countries that have taken full advantage of this, Yes, sir. 1302 01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:23,960 Speaker 2: You know people get mad because they're like India. Every 1303 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:26,760 Speaker 2: time I call somebody that's an Indian person, it's like 1304 01:10:27,120 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 2: the Internet helped that happen, you know, whether it's through 1305 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:33,360 Speaker 2: the voice lines that you know, the vo ip lines, 1306 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:36,320 Speaker 2: or whether it's the fact that you can now like 1307 01:10:36,520 --> 01:10:40,360 Speaker 2: be in India at three in the morning Eastern Standard 1308 01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:44,960 Speaker 2: time and reset my internet router here in North Carolina. 1309 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:49,080 Speaker 2: That happened because of the Internet. There's no like, there's 1310 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:51,400 Speaker 2: no reason we shouldn't want our kids to have access 1311 01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:55,200 Speaker 2: to that. But people elected, somebody's gonna try to strip 1312 01:10:55,240 --> 01:10:55,879 Speaker 2: all that shit. 1313 01:10:55,760 --> 01:10:58,599 Speaker 5: Out, you know, of course, because it's about keeping people 1314 01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:01,600 Speaker 5: dumb and uneducated. Because when people are dumb and uneducated 1315 01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:03,760 Speaker 5: and they don't know. They don't do better out of 1316 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 5: their lack of knowledge. And like I said, this country 1317 01:11:08,479 --> 01:11:12,080 Speaker 5: cannot survive without a quote unquote lower classes. This country 1318 01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:15,960 Speaker 5: cannot function without a lower uneducated class. And what I 1319 01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:17,240 Speaker 5: mean and that and a lot of times that has 1320 01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:19,360 Speaker 5: nothing to do with the race, because there are people 1321 01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:23,000 Speaker 5: in this low uneducated class that that falls in the 1322 01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 5: various different backgrounds and various different races. The problem is 1323 01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:29,960 Speaker 5: it's a lot of white people that fall in that 1324 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:33,160 Speaker 5: in that class that think they're better and they're not. 1325 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:35,519 Speaker 5: They're actually on the same boat. And that's why a 1326 01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:38,560 Speaker 5: lot of times they make decisions that are not beneficial 1327 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:42,559 Speaker 5: to them because of racism. Because even though we're all 1328 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:46,120 Speaker 5: on the same boat quote unquote, and these people that 1329 01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 5: are making any decisions look at you, even though you're white, 1330 01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:51,280 Speaker 5: they look at you the same as they will look 1331 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 5: at an Asian American or a black person or a 1332 01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:58,040 Speaker 5: Native American. They look at us all the same. Based 1333 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:02,240 Speaker 5: off of your answer this you're too ignorant and too 1334 01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:03,360 Speaker 5: stupid to understand it. 1335 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:05,040 Speaker 3: Because racism is gonna racism. 1336 01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:08,680 Speaker 5: And also when you're talking with Sweeting, when you was 1337 01:12:08,680 --> 01:12:11,240 Speaker 5: talking about lack of nons and things like that. I 1338 01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:12,479 Speaker 5: was the. 1339 01:12:14,280 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 3: I guess out of my mind. Mama's three Well, my 1340 01:12:18,880 --> 01:12:21,840 Speaker 3: aunt she had two children. I'm her last child. My 1341 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:23,599 Speaker 3: aunt to raise me, even though I call her mama, 1342 01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:24,880 Speaker 3: I'm her last child. 1343 01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:27,880 Speaker 5: And for me, out of all three of them, I 1344 01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:30,479 Speaker 5: was the quote unquote first generation to go to school. 1345 01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:33,800 Speaker 5: So I had to learn about faster. I had to 1346 01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:41,280 Speaker 5: learn about how all that shit worked. And baby, we're 1347 01:12:41,320 --> 01:12:43,519 Speaker 5: talking about when the internet fucking first. 1348 01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:44,439 Speaker 3: Got in the homes. 1349 01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:47,960 Speaker 5: So we're literally talking about dialogue. We're literally talking about 1350 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:51,320 Speaker 5: having to go to the library. Like we're like, now everything. 1351 01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,680 Speaker 5: I can pick up my phone and google that shit now, 1352 01:12:53,960 --> 01:12:55,640 Speaker 5: But I had to learn old school. I had to 1353 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:59,080 Speaker 5: take my ass up there and ask questions and demand answers. 1354 01:12:59,160 --> 01:13:02,320 Speaker 3: It's a lot easier and a lot simpler to get answers. 1355 01:13:02,560 --> 01:13:04,760 Speaker 3: And the thing is, also when you talk about. 1356 01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:06,679 Speaker 5: Net neutrality, which a lot of people don't even understand 1357 01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:08,920 Speaker 5: what that concept means, people need to fight for that 1358 01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 5: tooth and nail because for a lot of people, if 1359 01:13:12,560 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 5: they change the rules on this, it's going to affect 1360 01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:17,720 Speaker 5: people all across the ball. You're gonna pay more for 1361 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:21,400 Speaker 5: for for for lower quality of service. They're gonna constantly 1362 01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:23,160 Speaker 5: hiking rates so to get to the point where the 1363 01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:25,559 Speaker 5: average person will not be able to afford it. They're 1364 01:13:25,600 --> 01:13:28,800 Speaker 5: gonna make it where people like Netflix and like larger 1365 01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:31,679 Speaker 5: companies will actually pay for their shit to be faster, 1366 01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:34,640 Speaker 5: which means if you cannot pay, your ship will not 1367 01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:37,280 Speaker 5: be at the forefront. Right now, it's an open internet, 1368 01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:41,400 Speaker 5: which means no matter how big or small your company is, 1369 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:44,000 Speaker 5: the Internet just flows at the same rate. And the 1370 01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:47,560 Speaker 5: thing is a lot of it, boss, from greed. A 1371 01:13:47,640 --> 01:13:50,800 Speaker 5: lot of it bolls from not getting people educated. 1372 01:13:51,479 --> 01:13:53,880 Speaker 3: Like you say, now you've got to have the internet. 1373 01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:56,400 Speaker 3: The Internet is like water. It's not an option. 1374 01:13:56,800 --> 01:13:59,360 Speaker 5: And when people say that, you know, people go, well, 1375 01:13:59,439 --> 01:14:01,360 Speaker 5: I have the right to brief Yes, you also now 1376 01:14:01,479 --> 01:14:02,679 Speaker 5: have a right to the Internet. 1377 01:14:02,920 --> 01:14:07,000 Speaker 3: It's not something that's optional anymore. We're at a point. 1378 01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:10,320 Speaker 5: Now where you can't function in our society without access 1379 01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:11,280 Speaker 5: to the Internet. 1380 01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:12,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1381 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:14,800 Speaker 2: Like, I don't really go much for conspiracies, but the 1382 01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:19,360 Speaker 2: only one that I really could see myself like, okay 1383 01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:21,960 Speaker 2: that this is the only way this can make sense. 1384 01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:25,559 Speaker 2: It's just the way that we keep kids stupid it's 1385 01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:30,400 Speaker 2: just it's like something about the way we target education. 1386 01:14:30,520 --> 01:14:34,120 Speaker 2: When people have kids, like they claim to care about kids, 1387 01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:36,599 Speaker 2: they see these kids in their school, some of them 1388 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:40,920 Speaker 2: have kids in school, and they still say like horrible 1389 01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 2: things about the education system to the point where you're like, 1390 01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:47,439 Speaker 2: but you do know the other result is your kids 1391 01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:48,760 Speaker 2: just gonna be stupid as fuck. 1392 01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:49,640 Speaker 5: You know. 1393 01:14:49,880 --> 01:14:55,799 Speaker 2: But there is a very like anti intellectual, anti learning 1394 01:14:57,200 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 2: atmosphere in this country, you know where it's where it's 1395 01:14:59,920 --> 01:15:02,880 Speaker 2: like like you have these resources we've never had before, 1396 01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 2: and now that we have them, it's like everybody's like, well, 1397 01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:10,040 Speaker 2: stop teaching the kids about sex.

I just did it, and then 1468 01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:37,559 Speaker 2: he took me out and was like, I'm sorry about 1469 01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:41,840 Speaker 2: that or whatever, and I just needed him innu ite, man, 1470 01:18:41,880 --> 01:18:45,960 Speaker 2: because I was so angry, Like I cried angrily, like 1471 01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:50,040 Speaker 2: my tears were hot, like because I was embarrassed too, 1472 01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:53,120 Speaker 2: you know, you chilled me out of class, like you know, 1473 01:18:53,560 --> 01:18:55,679 Speaker 2: and you know, I be in that class every day. 1474 01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:58,880 Speaker 2: I fucking do my work. I turned everything in on time. 1475 01:18:59,160 --> 01:19:01,800 Speaker 2: Why would I sack of my good grade for this 1476 01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:04,439 Speaker 2: one for this one asshole who never comes to class 1477 01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:07,719 Speaker 2: and doesn't do a good job, like doesn't pay attention, 1478 01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:11,240 Speaker 2: you know. So it was like, I but I know, 1479 01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:15,080 Speaker 2: but that's that moment right where like I'm left thinking, 1480 01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:17,800 Speaker 2: is this happening to me because I'm a black kid, 1481 01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 2: right and and you know, there's no way I can 1482 01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:25,519 Speaker 2: prove that this is happening because I A'm black, you know. 1483 01:19:25,920 --> 01:19:28,040 Speaker 2: But at the same time, like what the fuck else 1484 01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:28,479 Speaker 2: could it be? 1485 01:19:29,560 --> 01:19:30,800 Speaker 5: You know, you like, you. 1486 01:19:30,840 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 2: Wouldn't do this to just anybody anyway, But yeah, I 1487 01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:39,640 Speaker 2: remember that. Yeah, accuse me achieving with my drawing and 1488 01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:41,840 Speaker 2: a white kids drawing were similar but in different colors. 1489 01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:43,960 Speaker 2: He was rude when I answered about the type of 1490 01:19:43,960 --> 01:19:46,320 Speaker 2: bird incorrectly. I was also accused of chasing a boy 1491 01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:48,360 Speaker 2: along with a bunch of other girls when I was 1492 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:51,120 Speaker 2: a part of the group that was chasing Yeah, I 1493 01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:54,519 Speaker 2: really do think yeah. Yeah. Anyway, Luckily in the fourth grade, 1494 01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:56,080 Speaker 2: I had a white male teacher who placed me in 1495 01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:58,800 Speaker 2: advanced reading because I couldn't remember what level of reading 1496 01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:01,040 Speaker 2: I was in the year before. Ever since then, I 1497 01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:03,679 Speaker 2: excelled in school and eventually moved into honors court classes 1498 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:06,120 Speaker 2: in the sixth grade at a different school. Also in 1499 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:08,120 Speaker 2: the sixth grade, my white male teacher treated me like 1500 01:20:08,160 --> 01:20:10,800 Speaker 2: a smart student that favored me. Then again, his daughter 1501 01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:14,000 Speaker 2: and I shared the same name. However, in the seventh grade, 1502 01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:16,160 Speaker 2: a white female teacher told me that we all started 1503 01:20:16,200 --> 01:20:18,880 Speaker 2: out as white and then got darker or closer to 1504 01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:22,120 Speaker 2: the equator we got what. This doesn't show how I 1505 01:20:22,360 --> 01:20:24,960 Speaker 2: was specifically treated as a black child by white teachers, 1506 01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:28,639 Speaker 2: but just shows the mindset of the teacher. My mom 1507 01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:31,479 Speaker 2: didn't have the job where she could just leave and 1508 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:33,560 Speaker 2: come up to my school, But I also wasn't the 1509 01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 2: type of kid to tell her that I got yelled 1510 01:20:35,960 --> 01:20:38,679 Speaker 2: at for not drawing a fold or got accused of cheating. 1511 01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,360 Speaker 2: So ultimately, I was lucky to come across a couple 1512 01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:43,880 Speaker 2: of teachers who either took their job seriously enough to 1513 01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:45,760 Speaker 2: do the best by all their students, or maybe had 1514 01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:47,760 Speaker 2: their own thoughts about black kids that they wanted to 1515 01:20:47,840 --> 01:20:50,200 Speaker 2: test out. I think you're right that if Karen had 1516 01:20:50,240 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 2: come across the teacher like that, things would have been different. 1517 01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:56,920 Speaker 2: Thanks for the great podcast. Yeah, man, Like, really, a 1518 01:20:57,000 --> 01:20:58,800 Speaker 2: lot of shit is luck. That's why I don't take 1519 01:20:58,840 --> 01:21:00,719 Speaker 2: all the you know, like a lot of people believe 1520 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 2: in this like exceptionalism and like these other dumb negroes. 1521 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:07,120 Speaker 2: I don't feel any of that. I just feel very 1522 01:21:07,240 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 2: fortunate that at the parents I had, that had the 1523 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:12,719 Speaker 2: teachers I had, and had the people that intervene where 1524 01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:17,000 Speaker 2: they thought it was necessary. And some of my quote 1525 01:21:17,080 --> 01:21:22,200 Speaker 2: unquote gifts and stuff have been flashy at times, and 1526 01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:26,760 Speaker 2: that flashiness helped in some ways, like oh you told 1527 01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:28,600 Speaker 2: this poem. Can you read this poem in front of 1528 01:21:28,600 --> 01:21:31,680 Speaker 2: the whole school? So once you do that, then it's like, well, 1529 01:21:31,720 --> 01:21:33,920 Speaker 2: we want this kid to be smart. You know what 1530 01:21:34,000 --> 01:21:36,040 Speaker 2: I'm saying, Oh you got the Josh Me test, you 1531 01:21:36,120 --> 01:21:38,840 Speaker 2: got to go to pancake breakfast with the mayor. You're 1532 01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:40,680 Speaker 2: a smart kid. Now you don't get to come back 1533 01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:43,519 Speaker 2: to class and be like, oh, I'm dumb. Like so, 1534 01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:47,840 Speaker 2: I just had some flashy things that really, you know, 1535 01:21:48,160 --> 01:21:51,160 Speaker 2: I went to the national to the North Carolina finalists 1536 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:54,479 Speaker 2: in the essay contest, like that kind of shit where 1537 01:21:54,520 --> 01:21:57,400 Speaker 2: it's like, oh, this kid's creative, he can he might 1538 01:21:57,479 --> 01:22:01,120 Speaker 2: have a future in something, as opposed to if you know, 1539 01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:05,719 Speaker 2: follow just been getting a's in the regular class, maybe 1540 01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:08,599 Speaker 2: that doesn't happen. Maybe people just go, well, he's smart 1541 01:22:08,640 --> 01:22:10,439 Speaker 2: for a regular student, but there's no need to put 1542 01:22:10,520 --> 01:22:12,559 Speaker 2: him up in age or you know, when I had 1543 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:16,120 Speaker 2: those semesters when I wasn't doing as well, then it's like, yeah, 1544 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:18,760 Speaker 2: let's uh, let's you know, like drop him out of 1545 01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:20,960 Speaker 2: these class. Obviously he's not that smart. I just, like 1546 01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:24,120 Speaker 2: I said, I had some flashy moments where people went, well, 1547 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:27,280 Speaker 2: whatever's happening. He's still gifted, but there's just something happening. 1548 01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:28,719 Speaker 2: Let's see what we can do to get his grades 1549 01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:32,559 Speaker 2: back up. All right, let me go to the next one. 1550 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:38,120 Speaker 2: Brandon right saying, uh, hey, Karen and Rod, I just 1551 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:40,640 Speaker 2: wanted to comment on my theory on award shows. I 1552 01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:42,800 Speaker 2: feel that award shows don't award our phase and true 1553 01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:46,280 Speaker 2: innovators out of obviously racism, but out of the losing 1554 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:50,880 Speaker 2: caschet of their awards as well. If they actually give 1555 01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:52,479 Speaker 2: out all the awards to the black and brown people, 1556 01:22:52,520 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 2: that deserve it, they'd be overrepresented, and the awards would 1557 01:22:55,320 --> 01:22:58,479 Speaker 2: probably be seen as less than or unnecessary. Even some 1558 01:22:58,640 --> 01:23:03,160 Speaker 2: self hating black people were buying it. That's well, that's sad, 1559 01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:05,920 Speaker 2: that's true, and has anyone ever felt that strongly about 1560 01:23:05,920 --> 01:23:09,400 Speaker 2: walking Flock of Flame ever? Plus his audience includes four 1561 01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:15,040 Speaker 2: year olds. That's child abuse? All right, thanks, thanks Brandon. Yeah, 1562 01:23:15,240 --> 01:23:19,800 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. Dog for that first part. 1563 01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:23,680 Speaker 2: Part of it is like if we give something to 1564 01:23:23,720 --> 01:23:25,960 Speaker 2: a white person, it'll see be seen as valuable. I 1565 01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,960 Speaker 2: know that I feel you on that, Dear Rodi Karen. 1566 01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:30,960 Speaker 2: I've been listening to your show for a couple of 1567 01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:33,559 Speaker 2: years now. I was introduce to you by Twelve by 1568 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:36,240 Speaker 2: listening to twelve and hearing Rod call in every so often. 1569 01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:38,639 Speaker 2: From that, I found the show, but first I balked 1570 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:40,880 Speaker 2: at the left two hours. But after listening to it, 1571 01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 2: the time flew by and I haven't a looked back since. 1572 01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:45,880 Speaker 2: I became a premium subscriber, caught up on your previous 1573 01:23:45,920 --> 01:23:49,080 Speaker 2: episodes and found some new shows, including Bosston Sports. I 1574 01:23:49,160 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 2: even scraped up the courage shot me to listen live 1575 01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:54,439 Speaker 2: and dive into the chat room. Your show is also 1576 01:23:54,479 --> 01:23:56,320 Speaker 2: the reason I watched The Walking Dead. I was going 1577 01:23:56,360 --> 01:23:58,200 Speaker 2: await until the series is over, but I kept having 1578 01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:00,960 Speaker 2: to skip your recap episodes.

I stay informed, 1585 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:20,880 Speaker 2: don't get me wrong, but just can't stand to look 1586 01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:23,559 Speaker 2: at the man's face or hear the sound of his voice. 1587 01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:26,880 Speaker 2: I just get my news from reading now and listening 1588 01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:29,400 Speaker 2: to you both.

Karen, thank you for your testimony and your laughter. 1591 01:24:34,800 --> 01:24:37,360 Speaker 2: It is very much appreciated. Every time you speak about 1592 01:24:37,400 --> 01:24:39,519 Speaker 2: black womanhood, I feel like you are reading my mind, 1593 01:24:39,960 --> 01:24:42,800 Speaker 2: ah but speaking with more power and more force than 1594 01:24:42,840 --> 01:24:44,679 Speaker 2: I ever could. Continue to speak our truth. 1595 01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:46,280 Speaker 5: Rod. 1596 01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:47,920 Speaker 2: I know you hear this often, but I will say 1597 01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,080 Speaker 2: it anyway. Although I enjoyed the show, I do not 1598 01:24:50,160 --> 01:24:52,400 Speaker 2: agree with everything you say. There are just some things 1599 01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:54,120 Speaker 2: I will never find acceptable, and I don't think I 1600 01:24:54,160 --> 01:24:57,000 Speaker 2: should compromise my principles on how I was raised just 1601 01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,560 Speaker 2: to tolerate what is clearly a lifestyle choice and not 1602 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:03,160 Speaker 2: what you're intended. I'm talking, of course, of the unnatural 1603 01:25:03,240 --> 01:25:08,400 Speaker 2: way you see fit to eat a kitcat bar. If 1604 01:25:08,439 --> 01:25:11,960 Speaker 2: you won't change for decency sake, think of the children 1605 01:25:11,960 --> 01:25:14,680 Speaker 2: who are watching you and are very impressionable. Maybe as 1606 01:25:14,720 --> 01:25:16,760 Speaker 2: an adult, with all your teeth, you can force your 1607 01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:20,280 Speaker 2: bite to bridge all four connected bars, but children with 1608 01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:22,720 Speaker 2: the little baby teeth will get their teeth tied in 1609 01:25:22,800 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 2: the grooves and in between each bars. That's not safe, 1610 01:25:26,600 --> 01:25:30,120 Speaker 2: that is not responsible. Please think about the children. Children. 1611 01:25:30,240 --> 01:25:31,840 Speaker 2: I've been doing this since I was a kid, and 1612 01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 2: I was able to make it work, so y'all can 1613 01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:36,560 Speaker 2: do it too. Finally, I want to leave you with 1614 01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:38,919 Speaker 2: a video commercial. I was in New Orleans over the holidays. 1615 01:25:38,960 --> 01:25:42,200 Speaker 2: In Louisiana is known for lots of personal injury lawyers, 1616 01:25:42,960 --> 01:25:45,800 Speaker 2: more than most places. They all advertise on television to 1617 01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:49,080 Speaker 2: some even engage local celebrities.
