<v Speaker 1>Because I got mine, and I'm gonna tell you why.

0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:40.559
<v Speaker 1>It's story time. So, guys, I went on a date

0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:44.280
<v Speaker 1>earlier last week. I'm sitting at the bar with a gentleman. Now,

0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:47.240
<v Speaker 1>I like this guy. He's cool. We order our food.

0:00:47.320 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 1>While we're waiting for our food to come out, I

0:00:49.920 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 1>beat him in a couple of hands of uno because

0:00:51.720 --> 0:00:53.720
<v Speaker 1>y'all know me, y'all know how I get down. Now

0:00:53.800 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 1>he sucks in this, by the way, but it's fine.

0:00:57.000 --> 0:01:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Our food comes out, we say grace. We're eating. I

0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 1>can't taste my food, so I tap them, babe, taste this.

0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Can you taste it? Because I can't taste it. After

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:09.440
<v Speaker 1>he tastes it, he's like, well, it's not much flavor

0:01:09.920 --> 0:01:12.240
<v Speaker 1>acts for salt and pepper. So I did. I got

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:14.560
<v Speaker 1>the salt pepper and I got the hot sauce right now,

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:18.680
<v Speaker 1>mind you. I had salmon, spinach and mashed potatoes right

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>and the salmon came with like a greavy sauce that

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:23.840
<v Speaker 1>I should have tasted and put the salt and pepper

0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>on it and the hot sauce. Still couldn't taste it.

0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:28.600
<v Speaker 1>I asked him to taste it. He said, no, I

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.039
<v Speaker 1>do taste it now. The food is not that flavorful

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:34.320
<v Speaker 1>even still, I said, okay, but I should still be

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>able to taste the fact that it's not flavorful. You

0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:41.080
<v Speaker 1>understand what I'm saying. It was like eating air. So

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:44.600
<v Speaker 1>I tasted his food. He had an apple walnut salad

0:01:44.760 --> 0:01:48.080
<v Speaker 1>with salmon as well, could not taste it. I ordered

0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:51.200
<v Speaker 1>a Coca Cola with extra its. That's my favorite beverage

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.160
<v Speaker 1>other than my Hennessey sidecar with a half sugar room.

0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:58.720
<v Speaker 1>Could not taste that either. Now I look over in him,

0:01:59.160 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>not tell him. I think I'm gonna need a COVID test.

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:05.560
<v Speaker 1>He was like, calm down, calm down. I was scared.

0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:09.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about crying internally, Like I was scared as fun,

0:02:09.560 --> 0:02:11.639
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So, of course that killed

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.400
<v Speaker 1>my appetite. I wasn't even trying to eat anymore. I

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.920
<v Speaker 1>was very, very scared upset, and I let him finish

0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:20.280
<v Speaker 1>eating his food and we ended the day fine. He

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:22.519
<v Speaker 1>took me back to my car. Now, listen, when he

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.359
<v Speaker 1>took me back to my car, there was food that

0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>I left in there from us going out two nights

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 1>before that, and it was seafood. I forgot to take

0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:32.959
<v Speaker 1>it out my car. Right, so you can imagine the

0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:37.959
<v Speaker 1>smell of old oysters and fucking scallops and clams and ship.

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:39.679
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying. That's been sitting in a

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>hot ass car over the course of forty eight hours. Right.

0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:47.600
<v Speaker 1>I jumped in the car and I didn't smell anything.

0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:50.639
<v Speaker 1>He said, you don't smell as ship. He smelled the

0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:52.280
<v Speaker 1>ship as soon as I opened up the door. I said,

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't smell anything. He said, it fucking reeks in

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:58.040
<v Speaker 1>the car, Jessica, I said, I do not smell it.

0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:01.280
<v Speaker 1>He said, yeah, you might need a COVID test. He

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>thought I was joking at first, though, I'm like, Babe, no,

0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:07.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't smell any of this ship. Now. I had

0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:13.320
<v Speaker 1>been feeling nasally for like the past four or five days. Now, listen,

0:03:13.360 --> 0:03:16.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking that this is allergies because I have had

0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:20.399
<v Speaker 1>severe allergies this year so far. I've never had allergies

0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:24.079
<v Speaker 1>until this year, my twenty ninth year of living. I'm

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:26.560
<v Speaker 1>getting a lot of things late. I just got chickenpox

0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:30.080
<v Speaker 1>earlier last year, you know, So I'm like fuck. However,

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:33.679
<v Speaker 1>like I said, I'm thinking, this is allergies, right. So

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>I called my cousin immediately, and I was supposed to

0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:39.880
<v Speaker 1>meet up with her to go to dinner. She has

0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>home COVID tests, so I beg her to bring one

0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 1>for me. Because I'm such a pussy. I cannot do

0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:47.600
<v Speaker 1>my own COVID tests. I cannot stick anything up my nose.

0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I just can't. She has no problem whatsoever doing it, though,

0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:54.160
<v Speaker 1>so she drove down from Pennsylvania to give me a

0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 1>COVID test. She bought two to be exact. The first

0:03:57.560 --> 0:04:01.400
<v Speaker 1>one came back positive. I asked her to do it again,

0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:07.200
<v Speaker 1>second one positive. I immediately called my friend and I said, listen,

0:04:07.720 --> 0:04:11.440
<v Speaker 1>I have COVID. You have to get tested because I

0:04:11.560 --> 0:04:14.640
<v Speaker 1>am positive that I have COVID. He took his test,

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:17.919
<v Speaker 1>his came back negative. Now he had already had COVID,

0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:21.599
<v Speaker 1>so his chances of getting it again is very low. However,

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:25.680
<v Speaker 1>you can catch COVID twice. His COVID test was negative,

0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:28.560
<v Speaker 1>so was my son's, and so was anybody else that

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 1>I was around within those last four days prior. So yes,

0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:37.120
<v Speaker 1>it's official. COVID had been trying and trying, and yes,

0:04:37.240 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 1>that bitch finally got your girl. COVID got me, guys,

0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.040
<v Speaker 1>Hence the sound of congestion. Y'all probably can still hear that.

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:45.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm a little n easily. And I know a lot

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>of y'all have been wondering why she haven't been making

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 1>any videos? Why wa wa, why wa wah wah wah,

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.479
<v Speaker 1>and even in my story. Okay, I do a lot

0:04:52.560 --> 0:04:54.960
<v Speaker 1>of commentary on movie I've just been watching movies land

0:04:55.000 --> 0:04:57.880
<v Speaker 1>back during commentary. But y'all have not been saying my

0:04:58.000 --> 0:05:03.479
<v Speaker 1>face h because I have COVID and I look flushed

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:05.160
<v Speaker 1>in the face. I don't feel like Donna make up.

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.160
<v Speaker 1>I am laying around my house wiggless, walking around my

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:11.480
<v Speaker 1>house wiggless. I just do not feel like myself. This

0:05:11.640 --> 0:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>ship has been kicking my ass up and down my house. Sweetheart,

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:18.679
<v Speaker 1>Where did I get it from? Who the fuck knows?

0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:22.080
<v Speaker 1>I travel? I had just came back from Colleen, Texas.

0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:24.520
<v Speaker 1>I did a meet and Greek. I just started doing

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:26.960
<v Speaker 1>meet and greets again, you know, ever since they lifted

0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>the mandate of wearing masks. I said, okay, listen, I'm

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:32.000
<v Speaker 1>gonna just give the people what they want and I'm

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:33.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna start doing meet and greets again. So I didn't

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:35.360
<v Speaker 1>meet and Greek. I could have very well got it

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:37.800
<v Speaker 1>in Texas. I could have very well gotten it when

0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:40.600
<v Speaker 1>I landed, because when I came back, I had started

0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:43.600
<v Speaker 1>going out, you know, I had started, you know, I've

0:05:43.640 --> 0:05:46.760
<v Speaker 1>I've been in d C and shipped around motherfucker's all

0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.000
<v Speaker 1>types of ship. There could be no way of me

0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:52.080
<v Speaker 1>knowing who exactly gave it to me, but I do

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>know that everyone needs to protect themselves. And I am

0:05:55.839 --> 0:06:01.040
<v Speaker 1>certainly sure that I am getting the vaccine. And now, listen,

0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:05.640
<v Speaker 1>I was one of those people who was against it, like,

0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:07.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, oh my god, I don't want it. I

0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>don't want it. I don't want now. I've never had

0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 1>a flu shot, you know what I'm saying. And I've

0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.800
<v Speaker 1>had the flu. I've actually went on stage with the flu,

0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:17.840
<v Speaker 1>if I can remember it right. I did Comedy Zone

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.960
<v Speaker 1>and Raleigh, North Carolina. I don't know if that's exactly right,

0:06:21.000 --> 0:06:24.360
<v Speaker 1>but I believe doing the Comedy Zone and Raleigh, North

0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Carolina doing my show with the flu just like Jordan,

0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:30.520
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. So I guess you can

0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:34.080
<v Speaker 1>call me Michael Jordan the Comedy. But this is different.

0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:38.320
<v Speaker 1>This is very, very much different. I've never ever been

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 1>unable to taste, not smell anything. You know. I have

0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:47.760
<v Speaker 1>crazy headaches, you know, all day. The ship affects me crazy.

0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:51.160
<v Speaker 1>You know. I got body aches, you know. Um, I

0:06:51.240 --> 0:06:53.760
<v Speaker 1>get cold and then I get hot. I get cold

0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:57.040
<v Speaker 1>and then I get hot. I'm deeply congested. The only

0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:58.919
<v Speaker 1>thing I do not have a is a sore throat.

0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:01.800
<v Speaker 1>But I'm telling you guys, this ship hurts and it's

0:07:01.920 --> 0:07:05.600
<v Speaker 1>nothing to play with. I have a child, I have

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>fans to go around. I have to be well, so

0:07:08.720 --> 0:07:10.920
<v Speaker 1>I have to get the vaccine. I I am a

0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:12.920
<v Speaker 1>person that travel a lot. And then not only do

0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I travel, I have a lot of contact with people,

0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:19.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, physical contact. People see me, run up to me,

0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:22.000
<v Speaker 1>give me a hug. A girl told me in the airport,

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. I will catch COVID for you, baby.

0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't want you to catch it. That was before

0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.160
<v Speaker 1>I had it. Baby, I'm telling you now, if you

0:07:30.200 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>are listening, if you're the girl who told me that,

0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 1>I would never want you to get COVID. Never, because

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 1>it's not as simple as you think. No, I do

0:07:40.520 --> 0:07:43.080
<v Speaker 1>not feel like I'm about to die. But I am

0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 1>at the sickest point that I have ever been in

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.560
<v Speaker 1>my life. No, I don't feel good. I'm having stomach pains.

0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:52.920
<v Speaker 1>It's all kinds of fucking symptoms, and everybody's symptoms are different. Yes,

0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:54.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to get the vaccine. No, I am not

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 1>forcing it on anybody. But if you can do your

0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:01.320
<v Speaker 1>part and you want to start living your life the

0:08:01.400 --> 0:08:03.280
<v Speaker 1>way that you used to live your life and not

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:09.280
<v Speaker 1>have to be scared of catching COVID, the vaccine definitely

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:11.840
<v Speaker 1>lowers your chances. And I am going to get it

0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:13.720
<v Speaker 1>because I got more shows to do, I got more

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:15.880
<v Speaker 1>people to come in contact with. You know what I'm saying.

0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:19.600
<v Speaker 1>Protect yourself. Another thing I noticed that people do. People

0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:23.080
<v Speaker 1>will be diagnosed with COVID and they will not tell

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:27.320
<v Speaker 1>anyone and still go out around people. That is very selfish.

0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:30.160
<v Speaker 1>I could never do that. I know people who have

0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:33.319
<v Speaker 1>had COVID and still went out to party around other

0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:36.800
<v Speaker 1>people with no masks or anything. I've been in my

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.640
<v Speaker 1>house for the past seven days. No, it is not fun,

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:41.439
<v Speaker 1>but I'm doing what i have to do so i

0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:45.600
<v Speaker 1>can do my part social distance. Wash your hands, were

0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:50.000
<v Speaker 1>your masks, especially if you're not vaccinated. Sanitize your hands

0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:52.720
<v Speaker 1>if you have no soap and water, sanitized. I'm telling

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>you it makes a good difference. Sanitize your door knobs,

0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:59.199
<v Speaker 1>your handles, your car, your staring will if you're a

0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 1>person who shake hands, try to give more hugs. Hold

0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:04.400
<v Speaker 1>your breath when you go in for the hug. You

0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:06.559
<v Speaker 1>know what I'm saying. All types of stuff like that.

0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:09.640
<v Speaker 1>That ship matters, okay, and listen. I have a very

0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:12.800
<v Speaker 1>strong immune system. I take vitamins every day, my one

0:09:12.840 --> 0:09:16.439
<v Speaker 1>of days, my Elderberry, you know, Vitamin C, vitamin D,

0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:19.600
<v Speaker 1>sea moss. I take a teaspoon of sea moss every day.

0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Even with all of that, I still contracted COVID nineteen. Yes,

0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:27.200
<v Speaker 1>it's hard being isolated from the rest of the world. Yes,

0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 1>it's hard being away from my son. It really is hard.

0:09:30.679 --> 0:09:32.959
<v Speaker 1>But I'm doing what i have to do, and I'm

0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:36.559
<v Speaker 1>also keeping myself busy. I'm writing comedy. I'm trying to

0:09:36.720 --> 0:09:38.880
<v Speaker 1>create content so when I do come up out of

0:09:38.960 --> 0:09:42.480
<v Speaker 1>this thing, I can make nice videos for you guys.

0:09:42.640 --> 0:09:45.040
<v Speaker 1>I can give y'all what y'all been missing. I'm packing

0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:47.040
<v Speaker 1>up my clothes because I'm moving out of my house.

0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm moving into a new condo. So yes, I'm keeping

0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:54.000
<v Speaker 1>myself busy, trying my very best. Another thing, y'all know,

0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:56.680
<v Speaker 1>I have a little frenchie. He's one and a half.

0:09:57.280 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 1>For some reason, my dog is experience and seeing the

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:04.040
<v Speaker 1>same symptoms that I am. He's not eating in three days,

0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:07.719
<v Speaker 1>and I honestly believe in my heart it's because he

0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:11.000
<v Speaker 1>can't smell it. My dog is greedy. Now, as soon

0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:12.880
<v Speaker 1>as you put a bowl of food down this little

0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 1>motherfucker's he's gonna go and attack it, demolish the food.

0:10:16.760 --> 0:10:20.040
<v Speaker 1>He hasn't touched his food in three days. I honestly

0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:24.600
<v Speaker 1>believe I gave my dog COVID. Now A long time ago.

0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:26.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if y'all remember this, but I was

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:30.840
<v Speaker 1>on Live with Charlemagne, and Charlemagne told me that dogs

0:10:30.960 --> 0:10:34.199
<v Speaker 1>can catch COVID. A dog can't give you COVID, but

0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:37.600
<v Speaker 1>you can give a dog COVID. They can catch it. Now.

0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I do believe that to be true because he hasn't

0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:44.320
<v Speaker 1>drink anything as well. I honestly just believe that he's

0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 1>not hungry because he can't smell it. Now. Their immune

0:10:48.360 --> 0:10:52.320
<v Speaker 1>systems are even stronger than ours. However, their symptoms still

0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:55.120
<v Speaker 1>affect them greatly. So I'm taking Bain to the vet

0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:57.800
<v Speaker 1>as soon as I get well. I'm gonna just try

0:10:57.840 --> 0:11:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to keep getting him to eat, keep getting him to

0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:04.040
<v Speaker 1>drink water. I'm saying this to bring awareness to the

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:08.520
<v Speaker 1>fact that you can give COVID to your pets as well,

0:11:08.640 --> 0:11:12.000
<v Speaker 1>So be very very careful. If you love me, you'll

0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:17.280
<v Speaker 1>listen to this commercial and then we'll be right back. Now.

0:11:17.320 --> 0:11:19.959
<v Speaker 1>If you've ever had COVID, then you know it gets lonely,

0:11:20.679 --> 0:11:22.559
<v Speaker 1>and so you would love for people to check on you.

0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:25.360
<v Speaker 1>You feel good when people want to know how you're doing.

0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Who's checking on me? My mom? The guy who I

0:11:29.360 --> 0:11:32.520
<v Speaker 1>could have given COVID to, he checks on me every day,

0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:35.199
<v Speaker 1>all day throughout the day. You know, I have a

0:11:35.880 --> 0:11:38.840
<v Speaker 1>couple of industry friends that check on me. My little

0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:42.640
<v Speaker 1>sister and one of my girlfriends check on me every day.

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:45.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about calling this bitch was really get on

0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the goddamn plane to fly here to fucking check on

0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:53.559
<v Speaker 1>me in person. I'm like, girl, you got two beautiful

0:11:53.600 --> 0:11:56.280
<v Speaker 1>babies that you cannot take COVID back to. I would

0:11:56.320 --> 0:11:59.040
<v Speaker 1>not even let you do that, but it feels good

0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:02.120
<v Speaker 1>to know who's there for you and who aren't. Because

0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 1>I have friends who live here in Baltimore, even family members.

0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:11.080
<v Speaker 1>You know who we're really sick who who thought they

0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:13.320
<v Speaker 1>had COVID I'm talking about. I was going around these

0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:17.800
<v Speaker 1>motherfucker's bringing them ship, checking on them, calling them and everything.

0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:20.280
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to get the motherfucking text back from some

0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:23.400
<v Speaker 1>of them motherfucker's. You understand what I'm saying, Like, I

0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.760
<v Speaker 1>really got a little attitude about that, And I could

0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:29.360
<v Speaker 1>have went online and and and invented and said, oh

0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:31.599
<v Speaker 1>I got COVID, y'all. I'm not looking for sympathy, No,

0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:34.960
<v Speaker 1>I am not. I am letting y'all know this because

0:12:35.600 --> 0:12:37.360
<v Speaker 1>y'all need to be aware of what y'all need to do.

0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:39.599
<v Speaker 1>Y'all need to be aware that COVID is still the

0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.040
<v Speaker 1>funk out here, very much out here. You understand what

0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:45.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, Just because we don't have to wear masks

0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.839
<v Speaker 1>any fucking more does not mean COVID is gone. Just

0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:52.559
<v Speaker 1>because we don't have to wear masks everywhere anymore does

0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:55.440
<v Speaker 1>not mean COVID does not exist. Just because the world

0:12:55.600 --> 0:13:00.800
<v Speaker 1>is opening up does not mean we cannot still catch COVID. Yes,

0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:04.480
<v Speaker 1>COVID is very much still out here and still alive, y'all.

0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:07.559
<v Speaker 1>And I need for y'all to understand that what I

0:13:07.640 --> 0:13:12.160
<v Speaker 1>do thank God for is letting me contract COVID at

0:13:12.200 --> 0:13:15.360
<v Speaker 1>the right time, because I have no shows. By the

0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:18.040
<v Speaker 1>time I do my next show, which is in Arlington, Texas,

0:13:18.400 --> 0:13:21.120
<v Speaker 1>July eighth and ninth, I should be free of COVID.

0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, I will be free of COVID. So I

0:13:24.640 --> 0:13:26.840
<v Speaker 1>do thank God for that. It didn't come in between

0:13:26.880 --> 0:13:29.440
<v Speaker 1>any of my money. I didn't have to fly anywhere

0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:32.959
<v Speaker 1>for any TV jobs or anything like that. Nothing. It

0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:35.480
<v Speaker 1>didn't come between anything, and so I do thank God

0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:38.120
<v Speaker 1>for that. This also gives me time to sit down

0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:40.680
<v Speaker 1>and reflect on how I can improve my set, because

0:13:40.679 --> 0:13:42.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you I'm gonna talk about this ship on stage.

0:13:43.200 --> 0:13:46.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna talk about how it affected me and and

0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:48.920
<v Speaker 1>some some funny parts and everything I would make me

0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:50.880
<v Speaker 1>see who the funk is there and who ain't because

0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you, I really do got to my fucking

0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:55.320
<v Speaker 1>attitude about that ship. I'm talking about what my cousin

0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:57.880

0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:00.959
<v Speaker 1>her motherfucking call logue when my brother there thought he

0:14:01.080 --> 0:14:04.360
<v Speaker 1>had fucking COVID. I visited him and his fucking house.

0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about what I came to his house. I

0:14:07.880 --> 0:14:11.480
<v Speaker 1>bought him balloons, I bought him chocolate. I bought him

0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:15.520

0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:06.520
<v Speaker 1>no mess for me. What I do want to do

0:15:07.080 --> 0:15:10.560
<v Speaker 1>is current news. Okay. So for those who did not know,

0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:15.640
<v Speaker 1>the BET Awards came on Sunday this past Sunday, to

0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:19.280
<v Speaker 1>be exact, and I loved how beautiful and black it was.

0:15:19.400 --> 0:15:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to Taraji p Henson, one of the best

0:15:21.760 --> 0:15:25.000
<v Speaker 1>hosts of the BET Awards that I've seen since Monique.

0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:30.720
<v Speaker 1>I love, love loved watching Taraji p Henson's outfit changes

0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and all her beautiful messages, all of her strong, powerful,

0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:38.040
<v Speaker 1>heartfelt messages to black women. I love the message behind

0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:41.920
<v Speaker 1>the Awards and how it was about the power behind

0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:44.760
<v Speaker 1>black women, the power that we have, the power that

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:50.040
<v Speaker 1>we hold. I loved everything from Kirk Franklin's open with

0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Little Baby you know the song that they got together,

0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:56.200
<v Speaker 1>to the DMX tribute The d m X tribute was beautiful,

0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:59.960
<v Speaker 1>it was powerful. I loved it. And last but not leave,

0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:04.000
<v Speaker 1>they honored the Queen herself, Queen Latif for the beautiful black,

0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:08.400
<v Speaker 1>full figure Queen, and I loved how she finally, finally,

0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:16.160
<v Speaker 1>final love, acknowledged her sexuality. At the end of her speech,

0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:20.040
<v Speaker 1>she said, happy Pride. She's so graceful. I love her,

0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:23.240
<v Speaker 1>and she's so classy. She's the epitome of what a

0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:26.280
<v Speaker 1>strong black woman is and what a strong black woman

0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:28.480
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be. And listen, y'all know I wouldn't be

0:16:28.560 --> 0:16:32.040
<v Speaker 1>me if I didn't say this. The only segment I

0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.320
<v Speaker 1>did not like about the BET Awards was when they

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:38.520
<v Speaker 1>had the cast of Tyler Perry's Sisters. Nice show. I

0:16:38.600 --> 0:16:40.680
<v Speaker 1>watched it a lot, and I love all the actresses

0:16:40.760 --> 0:16:46.040
<v Speaker 1>on there. I did not like how they made them girls.

0:16:46.120 --> 0:16:47.880
<v Speaker 1>And I say made because I know these were not

0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:53.040
<v Speaker 1>their words. The writers that bonnets are okay to wear outside. Now. Look,

0:16:53.080 --> 0:16:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what the funk everybody's problem is. What

0:16:56.440 --> 0:17:00.280
<v Speaker 1>moniques and she came out and said, sweet babies, don't

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:03.480
<v Speaker 1>wear your fucking bonnets outside. Now listen, if y'all can

0:17:03.560 --> 0:17:06.440
<v Speaker 1>have strong opinions, about wearing them outside. Why the funk

0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:10.600
<v Speaker 1>can't she have her strong opinion about not wearing them? No, no, no, no,

0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:12.879
<v Speaker 1>real ship, we can do better than that. No, a

0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:15.600
<v Speaker 1>bonnet is not meant for you to wear outside. No,

0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:17.800
<v Speaker 1>it's not. I don't give a funk what you're talking about.

0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:20.720
<v Speaker 1>And I say in a segment that Fox Sold posted

0:17:20.880 --> 0:17:24.399
<v Speaker 1>where Tammy Roman was talking to Monique and m Tammy

0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:26.480
<v Speaker 1>was talking to her, you know, and she was saying,

0:17:26.800 --> 0:17:29.119
<v Speaker 1>you know what a bonnet is, Tammy, like, y'all know what,

0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:32.720
<v Speaker 1>y'all know what it is. Tammy kept on like trying

0:17:32.760 --> 0:17:36.280
<v Speaker 1>to fix the question a certain way, like, well whoa no, no,

0:17:36.440 --> 0:17:39.439
<v Speaker 1>now what if? But but but what if? But what if? Tammy?

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:42.840
<v Speaker 1>No the bonnet? No baby, no, baby no, no. I

0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:46.080
<v Speaker 1>understand that you are the queen of bonnet chronicles. That's great,

0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:49.960
<v Speaker 1>that's that's amazing. That's something that you created. Great, that's fine.

0:17:50.080 --> 0:17:53.879
<v Speaker 1>Do that. But Monique is saying something totally different, and

0:17:53.960 --> 0:17:57.080
<v Speaker 1>you know what she's saying. You know exactly what she's saying. Tammy,

0:17:57.080 --> 0:17:59.440
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to ask the question eighty different ways

0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:02.159
<v Speaker 1>to get the same man, because she said what she said. No,

0:18:02.280 --> 0:18:04.080
<v Speaker 1>we don't got to wear that ship in the airports. No,

0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:05.639
<v Speaker 1>we don't got to wear that ship outside to the

0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:08.159
<v Speaker 1>store now to reach his own by all means, if

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:09.440
<v Speaker 1>you want to do that, should do it. But a

0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:12.000
<v Speaker 1>bonnet is not a fucking hat. It's a scarf. It's

0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:13.879
<v Speaker 1>like a scarf, it's it's a nice's a part of

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:18.119
<v Speaker 1>night attire. It's night garment. Like, I don't understand why

0:18:18.200 --> 0:18:20.440
<v Speaker 1>people are so bent out of fucking shape because she

0:18:20.560 --> 0:18:23.960
<v Speaker 1>said we shouldn't wear them outside. I'll talk about my

0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:26.480
<v Speaker 1>your business, which I don't remember the last time we

0:18:26.640 --> 0:18:28.560
<v Speaker 1>have a mind that our fucking business. Not with the

0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:32.280
<v Speaker 1>internet that we got today, nobody minds their business. And

0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:36.280
<v Speaker 1>like she said, us as black women are her business.

0:18:36.680 --> 0:18:41.480
<v Speaker 1>And it really offends me as a black woman who's

0:18:41.520 --> 0:18:44.440
<v Speaker 1>a part of a culture so big that we really

0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:49.920
<v Speaker 1>try to tear down Monique for voicing that. Y'all act

0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:51.960
<v Speaker 1>like she coming at us, y'all, acting like she's saying,

0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:55.240
<v Speaker 1>y'all some ghetto ass bitches, y'all, the the like she's

0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:57.440
<v Speaker 1>downing us or something. She gave her opinion, just like

0:18:57.560 --> 0:19:01.240
<v Speaker 1>we give our opinions every fucking day. It's okay for

0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:04.720
<v Speaker 1>someone to not feel the same way you feel, but

0:19:04.920 --> 0:19:08.840
<v Speaker 1>don't tear them down or degrade them for not feeling

0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:12.680
<v Speaker 1>the same way you feel. A bonnet is a night hat.

0:19:13.119 --> 0:19:16.480
<v Speaker 1>You wear that ship the bid you get up, and

0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:18.760
<v Speaker 1>you take it the funk off before you leave out

0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:21.240
<v Speaker 1>your house. That's how I feel about it. So I

0:19:21.400 --> 0:19:26.040
<v Speaker 1>second everything Monique says about that ship. And again I

0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:29.960
<v Speaker 1>also second getting the vaccine if you want to be

0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:33.280
<v Speaker 1>at your healthiest point and stay away from COVID. Not

0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:36.520
<v Speaker 1>saying you cannot catch COVID with the vaccine, because I

0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:40.440
<v Speaker 1>know people who have, but their symptoms are nothing like

0:19:40.680 --> 0:19:43.240
<v Speaker 1>mine right now. It's just like if you have the

0:19:43.320 --> 0:19:48.120
<v Speaker 1>flu shot, it lowers the risk of you having severe

0:19:48.640 --> 0:19:51.600
<v Speaker 1>symptoms when you catch the flu. You understand what I'm saying,

0:19:51.920 --> 0:19:54.240
<v Speaker 1>and just like that, I'm gonna end it on today.

0:19:54.680 --> 0:19:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Please wear your masks, sanitize, wash your hands. Get antibacterial

0:19:59.840 --> 0:20:03.200
<v Speaker 1>so Every soap is not good to wash your hands

0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:07.440
<v Speaker 1>to prevent bacteria. Anti bacterial soap is. Make sure you

0:20:07.560 --> 0:20:11.480
<v Speaker 1>sanitize your staring wheels, like I said, sanitize your door

0:20:11.560 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 1>knobs and anywhere you touch. Sanitize. Do not shake people's hands.

0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:19.760
<v Speaker 1>That's normalized hugging each other and holding your breath when

0:20:19.800 --> 0:20:22.240
<v Speaker 1>you do it. Or give a nigga pound, give a

0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:25.119
<v Speaker 1>nigga elbow, get in, get out. You know what I'm saying,

0:20:25.440 --> 0:20:27.640
<v Speaker 1>and I shall shake this ship off and be bad.

0:20:27.880 --> 0:20:30.640
<v Speaker 1>I love y'all. Make sure y'all tune in next week,

0:20:30.960 --> 0:20:34.080
<v Speaker 1>hump Day, every hump Day, and then my deepest pam
