00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: between having you know, in between the hell you're coming,

54
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 1: I've got two other things to shoot, you know, you know? Yeah,

55
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: ah well, I think I think I'm I'm getting a

56
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: little bit weirded out, just because every you know, every

57
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: five six years, a new something comes out that tells

58
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: you what is healthy, how you lose weight, how you

59
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: maintain your health. Just to say the other I mean,

60
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: we we talked about generation. We didn't watch things progressed

61
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: from Bahamian diet to slim Fast, the first thing with

62
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: all where you eliminate your carbs and it's all a

63
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 1: meat you eat atkins Atkins to herbal Life and then

64
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: Keto now and you got Now they're ditching Keto for

65
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: something else. Don't get about paleo. Then we got then

66
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: then at one point it's like, okay, then you be

67
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 1: a vegetarian, but there's like, well no, then you want

68
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: to be a vaga. But then it's like if you're vegan,

69
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: then you still don't want to eat process food. And

70
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: then we get all the way back to the beginning

71
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: where it's like, okay, just eat greens and vegetables. Then

72
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: some people say it's no doctor Saby didn't know, not

73
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: doctor Saby. Then now it's whomever. And I will have

74
00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: to say that even though I feel like I have

75
00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: a strong sense of basic health, I have in the

76
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: past gotten a little bit turned around in terms of like, okay,

77
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 1: so what is the right thing to do? Like what

78
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 1: are we supposed to do? And for me, I just

79
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: can't lie to you. Some things are just tried and true,

80
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 1: gonna slow me down sugar, processed food, my my baby,

81
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 1: my love fry food. I thought you're going to say bread,

82
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 1: Oh bread, it's so cool. Potatoes potatoes, goodness. See, we

83
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 1: we ate yams primarily. You know, if we can we

84
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: can find the love for a yam. My sister mixed

85
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: together a yam and a potato mash, and you know,

86
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: it's it's less potato, but you know, it feels like

87
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,240
Speaker 1: you're getting all the potatoes you want. And then of

88
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 1: course the next egg we have to, you know, make

89
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: a potato pancake out of the yam and the potato mixed.

90
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: But you know, here we go, sugar telling us a

91
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: message and the song I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you this.

92
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: This is what worked for me in the past. It

93
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,799
Speaker 1: was not the easiest thing to do, but it definitely worked.

94
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 1: I lost a lot of weight. I lost like sixty

95
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,599
Speaker 1: pounds one. I was working out a lot. I lived

96
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:32,280
Speaker 1: in California and I rode my bike upwards. I would

97
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: say up to twelve miles a day. I wrote a

98
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: lot with with Scott Parker. Shout out to Scott park

99
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: I love you yo. Um. That was that was a

100
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,919
Speaker 1: lot of fun. I realized I have to have fun

101
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,720
Speaker 1: things to do, like playing football or you know, I'm

102
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 1: not really a runner, but I do love riding my

103
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: bike like I do so much. That's a good thing

104
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: for me. Dr Diadamo's eat right for your blood type.

105
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: Oh see, I've heard about this heart this okay, which

106
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: is is sitting there in my library. It's it's an

107
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: app damn it on your deli. You know how hard

108
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: it is. Are you serious? It's hard to promise you.

109
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: You would think that your doctor just has it on.

110
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: No no, no no no. If you gotta go through

111
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: your primary care doctor and you gotta go ask. But

112
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 1: it's a whole process. It's not just are you serious.

113
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: To this day, I still don't know. I'm gonna find

114
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: out dogs. This is the year. Well, you know, I

115
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: was at the time when I guess, yeah, when I

116
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: found my mother knew my blood type. But I was

117
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: dealing with Dr Frederick Burton in Philadelphia. Dr Burton is

118
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 1: a m D. But he's also a holistic doctor, and

119
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: he focuses his his practice on holistic medicine. So you know,

120
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: if you're if you're going to Dr Burton in Philadelphia

121
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: on City Line Avenue, you'll get a blood test, and

122
00:07:54,840 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: he's gonna go through everything, everything and whatever you think,

123
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: you know, any anything you could think of, he's gonna

124
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: go look for it. And that's the difference between holistic

125
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: searching and your regular m d s. They're looking for

126
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: specific things and not everything. They're looking for rabies. You

127
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: might have got bit by a dog, by a kid

128
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: like my mom, Yeah you told me, but you told

129
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 1: us about this that he yes found in her system.

130
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: She was in her late forties and she was bit

131
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: by a dog when she was six, you know. So

132
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: there's that the suppression business that happens with modern medicine,

133
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 1: not necessarily healing. So you know he's going through find yourself,

134
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: a holistic doctor, where is anything you can share with us?

135
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 1: Because I'm so interested and like what he found out

136
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: about you, about me weight, you're supposed to remember, well,

137
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: that is not specifically what we were looking for at

138
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: the time. Um, I was trying to find out how

139
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: to regulate my cycle because I just it would disappear

140
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 1: for months or months, you know, sometimes a year or two,

141
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 1: Like I just was like what do I do? We

142
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: never actually came to a It was like get on

143
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: birth control pills, which was the initial reaction, not from him,

144
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 1: the from other doctors. It was like, we'll just get

145
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: on birth control pills to regulate your cycle with him. God,

146
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: let's see, um, there was babies in my system? How

147
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 1: about that? Because I was yeah, yeah, I was like,

148
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: oh wow, that's what I'm not sure it just might

149
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:39,600
Speaker 1: be present, it's just there. But it makes sense because obviously,

150
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: even as we all know that there are some things

151
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: that are genetic that you can't get from you know,

152
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: your parents, you know things and you're you know certain

153
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,200
Speaker 1: I like to call them switches. Uh. You know, there's

154
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 1: certain switches you get born with, and depending on how

155
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 1: you live your life and what happens to you, something

156
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: can flip that switch on, you know what I'm saying.

157
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 1: So there's something you know, so you can it's good

158
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: to have some sort of sense of what those switches

159
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: might be. I mean, that's that's pretty amazing. You know.

160
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: I'm curious, like um, and not not to get like

161
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: too deep in your binnass, but like, is that something

162
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 1: that's that's expensive or is that something that that people

163
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: might be able to like wrap their minds around in

164
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,000
Speaker 1: terms of like the average person be able to go

165
00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: do an afford. It was years ago when I was

166
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: looking for was cancer. We have a history of cancer

167
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: in my family, so I was like trying to see

168
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: was there any any glimpse hint idea so that I

169
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,719
Speaker 1: could attack it rather than it attacked me. And at

170
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: the time, he didn't find any cancer my system. Praise God.

171
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: I'm so grateful for that. Um. But it's time to

172
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: visit him again and go through the whole thing. It's

173
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,439
Speaker 1: been years and it's it's definitely time to see him again.

174
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: You know, insurance covered it. It was a hundred and

175
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 1: seventy eight dollars. Yes, yes, it was very good. I

176
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: wouldn't I wouldn't even assume that insurance will cover anything

177
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 1: that he's doing holistically. You know, anything that your holistic

178
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: doctors doing. They're not covering anything like that, you know. Yeah, yeah,

179
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 1: As you know, modern medicines is there to suppress symptoms,

180
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,079
Speaker 1: not to heal them or deal with them in any way,

181
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,959
Speaker 1: shape or form, because sometimes suppression is the answer, because

182
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: you don't want something that's sitting around in your body

183
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 1: to pop up, Like you said, something that's old in there,

184
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: you don't want it to pop up, or whatever the case.

185
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: May be. But yeah, yo, have you guys, either of

186
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: you guys, because you are artists and whatnot, have any

187
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: of y'all done like the body sculpting detoxifying stuff? I

188
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: would like to I heard that the ice thing, this

189
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: is all you know. I heard that the cool sculpting

190
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 1: hurts like it's painful. Yeah, I will try. I heard

191
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 1: it was slightly painful. Shoutouts to the homie our brobs.

192
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: You don't care. She did like at least three sessions

193
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,839
Speaker 1: of it. She is like, it might have hurt, this

194
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,720
Speaker 1: is slightly but she she did see the results. But

195
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: you just have to be consistent. Now, what is this though,

196
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 1: Because I'm just a regular negro, I don't know what

197
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: y'all even talking about. What it's about sculpting the way,

198
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,440
Speaker 1: it's a lot of different. So cool sculpting is when

199
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 1: they they to my now you even made me look

200
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: us up officially, but they should freeze. We freeze the fact.

201
00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: Oh and then you have to guess they have to

202
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: drink a lot of water to to push it out

203
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 1: of your system. Yeah, a lot of places, it's a

204
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 1: it's a lot of centers across the country that just

205
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: coool sculpting I'm just gonna tell you real quick how

206
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: it works. The proven science is FDA clear non invasive

207
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 1: body contouring technology eliminates up to treated fat cells for

208
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 1: good in nine different areas targets stufforn fat freeze is

209
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: twice stubborn fat at once. So that's what it does.

210
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: It freezes back. There are many ways, so there's also

211
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: a heat way. I hate that my references. Y'all these

212
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: show stuff and you saw. Of course, you're learn about

213
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: it when you learned about it from you, kind of

214
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: like I learned that you can also get which she

215
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: did a procedure which they melt atatich was equal to

216
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:17,319
Speaker 1: like ten thousand sit ups. However, what I was asking

217
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 1: about was a more holistic thing that I've been watching

218
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: Melissa Ford do on Instagram where she goes to like

219
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:26,720
Speaker 1: a detoxifying center. And I've actually heard about this years ago,

220
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: where you go declassifying tents and you go through a

221
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:34,599
Speaker 1: series of massages, progressive massages of them, like moving the

222
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: stuff around. Yeah, like I know what that is. I'm interested.

223
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: I want to Can you imagine I just would like

224
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: to have a month of just doing stuff, yeah, on

225
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: a daily basis, Like, oh, it's time. Like I've always

226
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: seen that in the movies where people go to some

227
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: svive somewhere and then oh man, it's time for your

228
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: spatial Oh cool, you know you're gonna get a facial Oh,

229
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: I have assigned for your massage. Okay, you can get

230
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 1: a massage like Jju in Atlanta. They have the Yoni

231
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:14,480
Speaker 1: Jju in Atlanta. Let's talk Yoni. Yeah, the Yoni steam

232
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: is pretty awesome. I've done it a couple of times

233
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: and I felt wonderful, like and for them, I felt wonderful.

234
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: I was like so fashion locally, it was wonderful. Put

235
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: in the egg inside right, well, no, that you don't

236
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: have to put anything inside yourself. It's uh, it's t

237
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: basically and you're yeah, you're sitting towel or something. You

238
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 1: can do these things from home as well. I believe

239
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: they sell them in um in Whole Foods, you know.

240
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 1: But you can also look it up and buy the

241
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,960
Speaker 1: tea and put it together yourself so that you can

242
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: have a whole bunch of it for whenever you'd like to.

243
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: But it was actually a really really pleasant experience and

244
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 1: I would like to do that again. That was not

245
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 1: loved it yeah, I've I've never tried it. I have

246
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: a ton of friends who have done it. They love it,

247
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: they swear by it. Vaginal care is super important, and

248
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: so having the basics down are really important. But this

249
00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: is something that's clearly not a new practice, but it's

250
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: something that now we're starting to talk a lot about

251
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: more often. And then obviously what black women having issues

252
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 1: with fire boys and things of all kinsitive and and

253
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: and and very very difficult periods. Because I have a

254
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: girlfriend who was having heavy bleeding and a lot of

255
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: pain and sometimes she was having her period was making

256
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: her go to the hospital for the pain. So she

257
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: started doing the vaginal steaming in order to um among

258
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 1: other things. Among other things, so changing diet, no longer

259
00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: eating I want to say, she wasn't eating chicken or

260
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: anything anymore. She was like, not is the root of

261
00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,560
Speaker 1: all physical evils. I'm gonna tell you that too, because

262
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: reducing sugar house with fibraries, sugar feet ahead say more

263
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 1: real talk after the break. So so as we're talking

264
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 1: about these things, it's like, Okay, clearly sugar is an issue.

265
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: You and I all know that that the sugar is

266
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: flooded through the hood in every possible way all through

267
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: it the most powerful drug. Oh it is, it is.

268
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: It's it's flooded. All the sodas and the hugs, those

269
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: little it used to be probably a dollar fifty. Now

270
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 1: you know, all of those little drinks and things are

271
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: just so much sugar. And it's a setup. It's a

272
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 1: set up, as somebody who was overweight right now it is.

273
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: It's a set up to tom to slow you down

274
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: and to to a fringe of fund your health because

275
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: health really is wealth. Friends, doesn't matter how much money

276
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 1: you have, it doesn't matter how many cars or houses

277
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: or whatever. If you're not healthy, man, it changes everything

278
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 1: for you. So people just get on a regular basis

279
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 1: something some things that are too about access too, because

280
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 1: such absolutely yeah, it's like I think what happens is

281
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 1: that a lot of people want to be healthy, like

282
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:31,159
Speaker 1: they want the benefits of being healthy, but there's the

283
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 1: education about it. But then it's also access because you know,

284
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: I live in the in the city and in Phillies

285
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 1: and when one grocery store you can go into, especially

286
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: the ones in the black neighborhoods or in the black

287
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: and brown neighborhoods, and it's just like none of the

288
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: produce look good. You know what I'm saying, ain't nothing

289
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 1: on sale, you know what I mean? Everything, and then

290
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: and and then you know, access to healthcare and people

291
00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: who we're gonna, you know, tell you what's going on

292
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,360
Speaker 1: with you. It's just like so much of that is

293
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: just hard to to to get around, you know, the

294
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,679
Speaker 1: stuff that's in your way. I don't you think sometimes

295
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: it's mental work too that you don't feel like doing,

296
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 1: Like you don't feel like doing the research and find

297
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:17,919
Speaker 1: out the alternative to this. This is what I know.

298
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: I know this price point. I mean, it's a lot

299
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 1: of gray in there. I feel like two Asia. It's like, yeah,

300
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,040
Speaker 1: I have six kids, and I make pretty decent money.

301
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: I have six kids, I make decent money, Okay. When

302
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 1: I go into the grocery store, okay, and I'm buying food,

303
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 1: I have to think about how quickly that my family

304
00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 1: is gonna go through that food, you know what I'm saying,

305
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 1: and when I'm gonna be able to replenish that. So

306
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: I think a lot about how much things cost, you

307
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And obviously fresh you know, fruit

308
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 1: and vegetables, of course, that's a no brainer. But then

309
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 1: also too, you have to think about the way that

310
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:59,120
Speaker 1: people work, the way they go to school. Will those

311
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: things go bad it? Will they be able to come

312
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,639
Speaker 1: home on time to cook every night? All these different

313
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: things are all things I have dealt with. These are

314
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: things that I have been faced with. When I'll even

315
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:16,040
Speaker 1: say things like vitamins vitamin supplements, if I'm gonna how

316
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: do I look only being the only person in the

317
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: house taking supplements? But then I don't want to give

318
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,159
Speaker 1: the B S supplements to my kids. So then what

319
00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: might cost you twenty dollars for a bottle of this

320
00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:31,239
Speaker 1: or that, I gotta buy four times that much. So

321
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 1: then you're telling me I got to spend two hundred

322
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: dollars a month on supplements, two hundred dollars on supplements,

323
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 1: when I got to spend at least four hundred dollars

324
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: every week, every week and a half to two weeks

325
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: just on groceries alone. Now, mind you, everybody doesn't have

326
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: a house with six kids in it. But what I'm

327
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 1: saying is that I make decent money and I have

328
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: six kids. When I think about people who are making

329
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,439
Speaker 1: not very decent money, and then thet's say they have

330
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: three kids, but this is the state. It's the same

331
00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: kind of thing, if not first. And I just think

332
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: sometimes we just gotta remember in terms of health, to

333
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 1: remember the access is an issue. So people don't feel

334
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 1: like they're failing themselves because they can't eliminate sugar or

335
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: they if they want their kids to have something to

336
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,879
Speaker 1: drink in the house, or whatever the case may be.

337
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: And let's say, you know, I don't know. I mean,

338
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: obviously water is obvious, but they can't afford X y Z.

339
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 1: It's a slow walk. It could be a slow walk.

340
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 1: It's gotta be a walk. Let me say this age

341
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 1: of great and danceler. Just because it's hard doesn't mean

342
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 1: that I don't have to do it. Like I enjoyed

343
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: my COVID time. I ate and I enjoyed it. And

344
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 1: when I and when I landed Mahellia, I was like,

345
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,880
Speaker 1: I am going to be Mahellia. Okay, I'm gonna eat

346
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: this hair and it's off on a character and you know,

347
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: and like that was really my mindset, like I'm about

348
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: to be great at this. I'm gonna do what best

349
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: liked and I'm gonna do it. Look now I'm in

350
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:04,480
Speaker 1: this position and I have to to get healthy because

351
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,200
Speaker 1: that I don't feel good. I just don't feel good.

352
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: And it doesn't make a difference. You know, I don't

353
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: have the options. The options are, but the reality is,

354
00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: let's just deal with the reality. Reality is, you have

355
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: to drink water. It's not a choice. The reality is

356
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 1: you have to cut down on sugar. It's not a choice.

357
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 1: Look if my mother, I'm just saying, I'm just saying,

358
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: we went through a very very hard time financially and

359
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: when I was growing up, and my mom, you know,

360
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 1: she just caught the long bus. She got on one

361
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 1: of them buses. She had a transpass in Philadelphia. That's

362
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: that's a little ticket that takes you to let you

363
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,880
Speaker 1: catch bus after bus. They were pretty expensive at the time,

364
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: but she had to trans pass and she would go

365
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 1: all the way out to the boonies, you know, to

366
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: suburbia to go to the thrift stores to get good clothes,

367
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: because the clothes in my community, the you know, they

368
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: weren't really working. You know, the pieces of something that

369
00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:05,920
Speaker 1: it didn't last very long. Put it in the watch

370
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,399
Speaker 1: twice and it's a rap, you know. So she she

371
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 1: went out to the suburbs. This is this is like

372
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,919
Speaker 1: a part of the journey when we're talking about like

373
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: we have to, you know, care for ourselves. Maybe that

374
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 1: means taking a long trip. Maybe that's the long bus

375
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 1: to the farmer's market. I'm not saying that it's gonna

376
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:28,479
Speaker 1: be easy. Everything ain't easy ship, but it's just it's like,

377
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 1: damn because the sugar water this one saying. I'm not

378
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 1: trying to say that people shouldn't put forth effort. Obviously,

379
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: Like I said, I've seen this from a lot of

380
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 1: different angles. I've been overweight. I am in this at

381
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 1: this current moment, but I've lost tons of weight. I've

382
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: been on some of these programs worked out. You look

383
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:51,479
Speaker 1: great by the way I saw you in your multi

384
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: colored dress, and can I can I just say that

385
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 1: I didn't have on anything underneath of it. There was

386
00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: no type of apparatus underneath that dress, and you look good.

387
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: I've been I've been back and forth between these things

388
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,159
Speaker 1: multiple times. So I do I understand there's a certain

389
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: there's a certain sensibility that we have to implore no

390
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 1: matter what we're doing. Like for example, yeah, you could

391
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: just not buy any juice. Okay, that's actually saves you money.

392
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: So there are some things. Yeah, there are some things

393
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: that we can do, and some things that are birth

394
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 1: out of poverty that actually are better for us, like

395
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 1: cooking more at home and things like that. But I

396
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: think it's important to really kind of stress and understand

397
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 1: that even if you have desire to do better, access

398
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: to better things is often linked to money and and

399
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,719
Speaker 1: and and privilege, and when those things are not in

400
00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: the space where you are, it can be very difficult

401
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 1: to make these types of chance ages. It's That's all

402
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying, is that. And I've been the mother in

403
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,320
Speaker 1: the store thinking, oh, well, no, I need to buy this,

404
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 1: or but I needed I needed to last, I needed

405
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 1: to stretch. Uh should I do this? Should I do that?

406
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: And and I and I can just I can relate

407
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: to that. That's all I'm saying. I'm not saying it

408
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: is the counter the counter to that kind of like,

409
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 1: all right, so I feel I feel you on You

410
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: don't have to resources. You have this drive, you want

411
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,600
Speaker 1: to change, you want to make things short, things are safe, Okay,

412
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: so you gotta buy these badass grocries this week. It

413
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: is all you can afford. However, I'm gonna make sure

414
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: that these kids get outside and at least walk around

415
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: the track to that. Yeah, no, I like it, And

416
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: I think that's what I'm saying. So, I mean, it's

417
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: like it's something there, it's something free you can do,

418
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: you know. Oh yeah, you're not confined to everything. And

419
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: like I said, I'm saying, I'm just throwing that out

420
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:51,679
Speaker 1: there because I think we're talking about freezing fat and

421
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: we're talking about all of this different stuff and I'm

422
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:59,400
Speaker 1: just like, well, for the average woman, how accessible is that? Like,

423
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,199
Speaker 1: I mean crazy, But we're talking about different levels of

424
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 1: staying healthy, right, so we also can talk about intermittent fasting,

425
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 1: like we can talk about things that you can do

426
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: at home. Like I don't guess what. I'm not a vegan,

427
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: but I was trying not to eat dairy during the weekdays,

428
00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,199
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. On the weekends, that's cheaper,

429
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: by the way, because dairy is expensive. People. We know

430
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: that dairy is back for us when we feel that

431
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 1: mucus and I said that when we wake up there

432
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: that today so and not for nothing. I know I

433
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: shouldn't be eating dairy when the moment. I watched the

434
00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 1: Peter video and at the end of it, they said, well,

435
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: if rats drink rat milk and uh, bats drink bat milk,

436
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: why is your human as drinking coyle milk? I don't know.

437
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: But so interesting about Yeah, But that's that's so interesting

438
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,439
Speaker 1: is because certain values that we grew up having is

439
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:52,040
Speaker 1: like almost indoctrination, Like we were when we were like, oh,

440
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,399
Speaker 1: it's gonna build healthy bones. And I remember the milk

441
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: commercials like this is what you was in industry? It

442
00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: was some bullshit. It was all eyes to build this

443
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: fucking milk industry, and we are all living in the

444
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: bullshit of what it did to us as kids. And

445
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: for milk, they gave us powdered milk, yes, any anything

446
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: milky alive, And now folks are raised on all kinds

447
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 1: of nut milk. Like who even knew that we could

448
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: just strain the nuts over night and some milk and

449
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: call it my weird old neighbors that none of the

450
00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: neighbors understood who was playing guitar with a whole bunch

451
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: of plants all around his window and uh smelling of

452
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 1: some kind of wonderful inset that dude knew that nuting

453
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: milk was a real thing. Yeah, the sisters that wore

454
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: the guard the gayle as that we didn't understand that

455
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: was still wearing that. Those those elders they knew, they

456
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: understood when he had That's very true. They were raised

457
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: to be vegetarians, that new satan. I was like, what

458
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: is it? We Arry Ridz, what is this? I'm in

459
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: high school with vegetary d Yeah, yeah, I mean they're

460
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: they're some of this stuff is is old, tried and true.

461
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: I'm two dollars. I just want to say that I'm

462
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: a milk two dollars. My child only drinks almond milk,

463
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: so I know would be fancy too. And they just

464
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: be like, wait, wait, waiting women where because no, no, no,

465
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 1: I'm sorry because when you go in the hood, see

466
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,680
Speaker 1: a lot of y'all talking stuff because you've got time

467
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: these women and people who work in nine to five

468
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 1: jobs who coming home immediately have to cook. And the

469
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: only store in the neighborhood, if it does have almond milk,

470
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 1: it's five and six dollars. Let's stop, everybody, and you

471
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,160
Speaker 1: got spay and you got to help me that. It's

472
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 1: because it's two dollars and not just in traded Joe.

473
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 1: So I didn't know that I didn't know in the

474
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 1: corner store and they mark it up like five times

475
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 1: what it is store. I'll go to the corners to

476
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 1: all the time, but I don't go to the corner

477
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: store for my milk. So that's why I didn't know.

478
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: I don't pay attention. I go cornasto up at certain things.

479
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,479
Speaker 1: So I feel you in the privilege of that. Well,

480
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I'm just saying, like, even in the

481
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 1: markets that are in some of these communities, then you

482
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 1: want somebody then then we discussed getting on the long bus,

483
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: So getting on the long bus also requires time to

484
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 1: get on the long bus. It also requires a lot

485
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: of different things, access to a lot of stuff that

486
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: are folks. I just think sometimes we don't understand some

487
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: of the basic things that folks do not have access to.

488
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: I think that's yeah, I just saying. I just think

489
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: when it comes to health, like specifically around health, right,

490
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,359
Speaker 1: I think that we just have a perception that the

491
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,400
Speaker 1: majority of people are living in middle class life, that

492
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: a lot of these things are associated with middle class living,

493
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: access to things and the affordability to to to get

494
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 1: these certain things. We do live in a country where

495
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,959
Speaker 1: the vast majority of the people black, white, and otherwise

496
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 1: don't have access to some of these things. And the

497
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 1: more stuff you pile into the pot, black, poor, whatever,

498
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: these things become more and more difficult. So just getting

499
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: getting almond milk at two dollars, I'm sorry, I gotta

500
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 1: just jump out there and say that ain't everywhere, and

501
00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: that's mostly not everywhere. We're gonna take a quick break

502
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: and then we'll be right back with education. When you

503
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: when you're interested in something, you find out, there is

504
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: a drive to find out more. That was That was

505
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 1: my quote in high school. The more I see, the

506
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,200
Speaker 1: more I do, the more I do, the more I

507
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: want to see, you know, saying it's it's if you're interested.

508
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: I don't know. I know about being broke. I definitely

509
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: know about that. And I know that My mother got

510
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: up at four o'clock in the morning and took the

511
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 1: long bus to the docks and came back with a

512
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 1: bunch of fruits and vegetables and started making smooth these

513
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: for my community. This is not myth, this is not bullshit.

514
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: This is real. She just started making smoothies. She bought

515
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: a book. I can't remember which one it was, but

516
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: she bought a book and found out about herbs and

517
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 1: such and started making these smoothies. And next thing I know,

518
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 1: people are standing around the block waiting for Joycey smoothies

519
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 1: and she was charging ten dollars, which was over ten dollars.

520
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: I know. She's also bought the big cups and she's

521
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 1: making I mean big joints. So when I asked people

522
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: on my way out, like, y'all really like my mom smoothies,

523
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: they were like, oh, whoa you know, um, when we

524
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 1: have them, we don't have to eat for the rest

525
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 1: of the day. So it's a ten dollar old day

526
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 1: party question. How come after that, everybody on your block

527
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 1: didn't get up at four o'clock in the morning and

528
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: make their own smoothies. There has to be a desire

529
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: for it. But what I'm saying that has to be

530
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 1: a desire. I can't believe that not a single person

531
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: that had your mother smoothie had no desire to be healthy.

532
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: I don't know about everybody. I know that when she

533
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: stopped making them, I ain't see them no more until

534
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 1: they were in the stores and everybody was going at

535
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: the smoothie mark and the smoothie spot in the smoothies

536
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: it's also a matter of convenience, and ain't people probably

537
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: don't think that way. When I can get up, I

538
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:16,920
Speaker 1: don't have to get up before the more and I

539
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: can just wait from Miss Joyce and I got the

540
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 1: ten dollar, let me just say my ten bucks and

541
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 1: just sometimes that's the thought too. It's just so many

542
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: grades in that that thought process, isn't it. All I'm

543
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 1: saying is that I understand the variables, but if it's

544
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 1: something that you really want to do, like and I'm

545
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: speaking really directly to my myself right now, because I

546
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: don't I don't want to work up to and I

547
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: have to. I don't feel like drinking this green ship

548
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 1: that I'm drinking right now, but I'm gonna drink this

549
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: green ship because I know it's better for my body.

550
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,480
Speaker 1: I don't want to, but I have to stick to it.

551
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: And the more excuses that I make, oh, well, you

552
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:03,000
Speaker 1: know I was trying to. Yeah, I get it, I

553
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 1: get it. It's not gonna work out. They're not we're

554
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: not shooting down. It's not happening now, is happening a

555
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,080
Speaker 1: year from now or or a little sooner than that.

556
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 1: But nonetheless, what I can't hold onto this my knees hurt.

557
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: I came there, don't want to be some bread and

558
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 1: the fact that our mother's not for nothing. The seventies, mamas,

559
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: there was a little bit of a holistic kind of thing,

560
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 1: and there wasn't rich mamas, because I don't I don't

561
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: think from a middle class refective. I do sometimes have

562
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 1: the tendency to think from a working class perspective. So

563
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: I I apologize for that and trying to be more,

564
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: but in the sense of, like, I know, my mom

565
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 1: wasn't rich, but there were certain things and books that,

566
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: like you said, Jill, she wanted more. So my mother

567
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: is still giving me books. I got a stretching book. Okay,

568
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: likes she is in this wholistic game. She is not trying.

569
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,240
Speaker 1: She's trying to age gracefully. She listen, she ain't what

570
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 1: she ain't wont off that daughter, You know what I'm saying.

571
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: So girl, let me tell you something. My mother, my

572
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: mother got up, every got up and did remember that

573
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: lady who used to do the work out in the morning,

574
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:09,680
Speaker 1: the twin workout four more, three more, two more. My

575
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 1: mother did that. My mother got up and did her

576
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: fifty My mother got up and did the fifty sit ups,

577
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 1: and I'm saying all of those things, and and again

578
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: and again. It's not to be Devil's advocate or anything.

579
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: I just was trying to throw out some other aspects

580
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 1: of things we might want to think about. And of course,

581
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: anything you want to do, you have to want it.

582
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: But also to what I love about what you guys

583
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 1: are saying ultimately is that it is a life or

584
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: death situation and it's also a form of resistance because

585
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, we know what we're

586
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: up against, and our health and how we treat our

587
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: bodies is so important because there's so many things attacking it,

588
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: whether it be what your diet is, how much you

589
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: move your body, your mental health because we've talked about

590
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 1: this on this show before, your mental wellness. All these

591
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: things are ingredients to, you know, the type of priorities

592
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: that we have to make for ourselves because if no

593
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: one's coming to check for us, they gotta so we

594
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: gotta be able to share this information with each other

595
00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: and be fully, you know, aware of the challenges that

596
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 1: we have and how to fix, fix and meet those

597
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 1: challenges because no one else is gonna care. They're just

598
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:21,800
Speaker 1: gonna let us drop off. They're gonna let us have diabetes,

599
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: They're gonna letus that sad disease. They're gonna let us

600
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: have all of that stuff and have access to the

601
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,400
Speaker 1: worst possible health care. So we gotta look out for

602
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,200
Speaker 1: each other and being a better friend and help people

603
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 1: be accountable. Shoot, I know, girl, I don't want no

604
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:43,680
Speaker 1: I mean accountability partnership. I'm going right back. I'm going

605
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 1: right back to this long bus. Friends. That's that's what

606
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: it seems like. It's like a metaphor for what I

607
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: have to do now. I gotta catch the long bus.

608
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 1: I promise you. I could cry right now, but I'm

609
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: just I'm I'm too uncomfortable. Oddly I fit my clothes.

610
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,879
Speaker 1: I don't know how. I don't know. This is when

611
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: you know you gotta make some changes when you say

612
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know how I'm fitting any

613
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 1: of my clothes, but I'm I'm fitting some of it,

614
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 1: most of it. But I don't like how. I feel

615
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: like I worked so hard in the past, you know, Scott, Damn.

616
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 1: There there was moments where I had a song. I

617
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 1: used to be like, Scott hate me, he hate me

618
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 1: so much, and I hate him too. And then he

619
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: would show up and I would sing this God hates me.

620
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: Oh God, it's terrible. I hated the song. I hated him,

621
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 1: I hated to see his face. But every time we

622
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,239
Speaker 1: left each other, I felt a little bit stronger and

623
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: I felt a little bit better, and I and he's far.

624
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: He's far, and I don't know nobody out here like that.

625
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: So what that means is that I gotta do that

626
00:35:54,120 --> 00:36:00,440
Speaker 1: for myself. My my girlfriend girlfriend swears by that Peloton. Okay,

627
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:05,160
Speaker 1: she swears Peloton is a thing, and they have an app,

628
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,239
Speaker 1: So you don't actually need the need a Peloton Palestine.

629
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 1: Oh that's fine. Well, don't be waiting and not doing nothing.

630
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:15,279
Speaker 1: Don't be waiting. Don't be one of those equipment we're

631
00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,879
Speaker 1: talking about. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm

632
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: talking about. Have YouTube workouts. You're talking about, getting rid

633
00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: of every excuse not getting on the loan bus right now,

634
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 1: not at this moment, but the metaphors that that I am.

635
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: This is about to be the long bus. I gotta

636
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: I gotta go walk because the bus stop. I didn't

637
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: get to the bus stop yet. Because you gotta get

638
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: to the stop and this is the thing too, And

639
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 1: I'm so glad again. I know we talked about the

640
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 1: generational changes and stuff, but I'm so glad that we're

641
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:47,239
Speaker 1: communicating more about what growing older means, right, because things

642
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: that we weren't told, right, Like, we weren't told a

643
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 1: lot of our our elders had neat issues because they

644
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:53,879
Speaker 1: had too much weight on their bodies. Right, we weren't

645
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: told that our skin changes over every ten years. And

646
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 1: you can't use the same facial things that you use

647
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:01,320
Speaker 1: because it may be effective. I had to learn that

648
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 1: when I turned thirty and proactive wasn't working anymore. They'll

649
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 1: tell you about adult acne. They don't tell you even

650
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 1: about your period and how that changesn't so. And so

651
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: I tell you about your sweat glands and how you

652
00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 1: might stink and you might have to do better about

653
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,920
Speaker 1: what kind of deodorants you use and all kinds of stuff.

654
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:22,719
Speaker 1: It's like a lot of things, you're right, And that

655
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 1: you lose muscle as you get older. People. So, like

656
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 1: my mother said to me, like ten years ago, she

657
00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,680
Speaker 1: was like, your cardiore real cute, but I'm gonna need

658
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: you to pick up some of them weights because you're

659
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: gonna lose You're about to lose muscle, and it's when

660
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: the fifties hit. Listen. I girl, I experienced that, that

661
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: losing muscle thing. I used to be so strong in

662
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 1: my upper body, and I've always been strong in my

663
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,480
Speaker 1: lower body. I still am. It's just a thing. It's genetic.

664
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,839
Speaker 1: I think it don't even matter how big I get

665
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,800
Speaker 1: is such a weird thing. But my upper body always

666
00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 1: had a lot of strength in my upper body. And

667
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,279
Speaker 1: the other day I tried to do something simple and

668
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, baby, you you have to work

669
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: on this. And because I've always been so super focused

670
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:08,800
Speaker 1: on things like drinking water and I haven't you know,

671
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 1: processed food and stuff like that, and cardio. You do

672
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 1: cardio a lot, your dancing and cardio I dance and

673
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 1: stuff like that. But I never thought about that with

674
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: those weights that I'm glad you brought that up because

675
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 1: I have done so much of that other stuff and

676
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,760
Speaker 1: felt like, yeah, I feel I feel good, you know, girl.

677
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: Till I tried to do something that required strength. I

678
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: went to my my girlfriend's party and she's now Quinn quadrainarian.

679
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: You know um that come on, qu So I go

680

00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 1: don't know how long the party was, but I know

682
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: that I danced from the time I got there to

767
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 1: that the gas station fried chicken is the best chicken

768
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,879
Speaker 1: I've ever had, and I think about it. I think

769
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,360
Speaker 1: about it often, and then I'll just go to the

770
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 1: gas station and say that I was going to get

771
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,480
Speaker 1: something else, but I'm really going to get that chicken.

772
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: I'm really going to do that. And I have to

773
00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:29,440
Speaker 1: stop this foolishness just because the children, the child have

774
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: some ice cream, because these children over here like to

775
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 1: believe that they should have deserved every night supposed to. Yeah,

776
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,839
Speaker 1: I mean, that's not that's not how I grew up.

777
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,400
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know, I'm just saying the dessert

778
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,320
Speaker 1: is a treat. It's not. It's not a given. You know,

779
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,439
Speaker 1: it's that's because you did something great, you know, it's

780
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: not just because Yo. It may be so, but I

781
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,960
Speaker 1: the dessert falling into the children's trap of dessert. I

Speaker 1: But the rest is I have to stop because I'm

785
00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 1: doing what they're doing. I'm doing what they're doing, and

Speaker 1: Want to drink this water you want to We really

837
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:13,720
Speaker 1: do want to get a holistic test for your blood,

838
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 1: just to find out what's going on. How is your cholesterol.

839
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 1: It's it's it's not the specific While I'll say it's

840
00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:26,200
Speaker 1: not the finitely specific thing that the rest of the

841
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,799
Speaker 1: doctors are doing. It's a whole They're looking at all

842
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,600
Speaker 1: of you, looking at your blood to see what's really

843
00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 1: going on in there, so you can catch some things

844
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: early if necessary. Okay, that's that's that's one I say.

845
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:43,560
Speaker 1: Please do this. Okay, then please have your eyes checked

846
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 1: as often as you can. I know, I know that

847
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 1: things are not easy. I know that finances aren't the

848
00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 1: way you know that everybody wants them to be on

849
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,520
Speaker 1: a consistent basis. But this is a priority. It's more

850
00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:58,719
Speaker 1: of a priority than that bag ordumn shoes or even

851
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,160
Speaker 1: that bill. Babe. You might have to put a little

852
00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 1: bit on that bill and walk away and come back

853
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 1: and you know, you know, tag little chunks out of

854
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,480
Speaker 1: it as it is. But your eyes are important. And

855
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 1: you don't forget about the t too, because you do

856
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 1: not have to get a certain age. The mouth, the mouth, mouth.

857
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: I know we're throwing stuff in at the end, but

858
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 1: the mouth thing. Another good holistic thing is that is

859
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:30,960
Speaker 1: um oil pulling with that oil, oh yes, baby, and

860
00:49:31,440 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 1: that that draws out a lot of that bacteria to clean. Okay,

861
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 1: your teeth a bit too, And and don't forget about

862
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 1: bacon solda for your teeth. Bacon solda and peroxide. I'm

863
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,080
Speaker 1: not asking you to swallow peroxide I'm just saying, to

864
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:49,319
Speaker 1: make a nice little paste with bacon, solda and peroxide. Um,

865
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,719
Speaker 1: it's something that my mother has had me do my

866
00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,000
Speaker 1: entire life. I never liked the taste of it, but

867
00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 1: you can follow it with some kind of mouth wax.

868
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,120
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, if you want to have a healthy mouth,

869
00:50:03,239 --> 00:50:10,080
Speaker 1: because that's that's like super important to for many reasons. Okay, yeah,

870

Speaker 1: bless you, bless you. We're gonna we're gonna continue to

871
