Tell me, you guys 15 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 2: get the Hoothy who reference like HOODI who? Okay, if 16 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 2: you don't know, the US decided to toss nice little 17 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 2: bomb over there at the hoothy'st or at the Yemen East. Yeah, 18 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 2: at the hooth East because they were shooting down ships coming. 19 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: Through the Red Sea. 20 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 2: There's a lot going on here and it is the 21 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 2: epitome of what we mean by a hood politics, because 22 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 2: when a fight breaks out, you know, fight breaks out 23 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,199 Speaker 2: up the school. Everybody circle up and it's going down. 24 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 2: You have a side, but you just know better than 25 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 2: to jump in. The other dudes on the other side 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 2: of the circle, they have a side. They chose the 27 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 2: other dude, and they don't necessarily want to jump in, 28 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 2: but they for damn show not gonna let you jump in, 29 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: and you ain't gonna let them jump in. So this 30 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 2: so we just gonna be fighting over here too, you 31 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, Like, Hey, hey, hey, don't be 32 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 2: messing with my own boy.

Hey, stay the fucking 34 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 2: you stayed the fuck out of it, and then out 35 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: Now second fight breaks out because you were stopping them 36 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: from jumping in. They were stopping you from jumping in. 37 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 2: Now we got we're all going on hood politics, y'all. 38 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 1: All right, y'all. 39 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: There's something to be said about some of the overlaps 40 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: of any sort of subgenre or subculture. Anytime you have 41 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 2: a gathering of a community, apparently, no matter how much 42 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 2: you stand on business, no matter how just callous the 43 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 2: people are, it's gonna be some cheesemay, it's gonna be 44 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 2: a network of interconnected people and events and relationships that 45 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: can get so complicated. Y'all should watch The brother Son, 46 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: which is the side note I'm gonna give y'all today, 47 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: The brother Son. It's a new show on Netflix. Obviously 48 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 2: they not paying me for this, because why would Netflix 49 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 2: pay me anything? But I burned that show in a day, 50 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 2: like eight episodes. It was so dope. One reason why 51 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: it was so dope is because it takes place in 52 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: my beloved six two six. It takes place in an 53 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 2: area called the San Gabriel Valley. There's a part of 54 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 2: the San Gabriel Valley. Like I said, I was over 55 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: in La Point Day, but Linda, this is twenty minutes 56 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: east of South Central where I was born. That area 57 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,399 Speaker 2: is like I mean, it's one hundred percent Mexican Filipino 58 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 2: sprinkle with a couple of black folks, right, So I 59 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 2: grew up in that type of area. Now, the northeastern 60 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: part of East LA is actually Monterey Park. Monterey Park 61 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 2: is Asian. It's specifically Chinese. So when you start talking 62 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: about cities like Alhambra, Rosemead, San Gabriel, this is the SGV, 63 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 2: the San Gabriel Valley, this part of it. 64 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: I mean it's Asian. It's all I mean, it's all Asian. 65 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 2: It's and again specifically Chinese, because Koreatown is Koreatown, you know, 66 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 2: but that area, oh, it's Asian. So if you if 67 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: you're trying to get some some good dim sum, if 68 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: you want that good you want good Asian food, you 69 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: could drive to Chinatown if you want to out in LA. 70 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 2: But don't sleep on Monterey Park, don't sleep on Temple City, 71 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 2: don't sleep on Rose Meat because over there bro that 72 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 2: area is it's it's south of Pasadena. And then as 73 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 2: you keep going east, after you pass like Rosemead, you're 74 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,559 Speaker 2: into El Monte where it starts to become Vothos again, 75 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: and then El Monte, Baldwin Park, La Pente, Belinda where 76 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: I'm from. So this network, this part of LA is 77 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 2: such a community that I'm so familiar with that when 78 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: people do shows, they don't never necessarily talk about it. 79 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 2: They always talk about La proper to, you know, Chinatown, 80 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 2: Little Tokyo, Koreatown, they talk about over there. But this 81 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 2: over here is like, oh, you grew whoever made this 82 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:51,039 Speaker 2: show you from here? 83 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: And it is so dope. 84 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,799 Speaker 2: It's such a good take on the Asian community, the 85 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 2: immigrant community, the triad, and just the gang life that 86 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 2: they have and the complications of that's the part that's 87 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 2: so relatable to anybody else who grew up like in 88 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 2: any sort of hood, who family affiliated. But you like 89 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 2: you weird because like you you know what I'm saying. 90 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: You just you just happen to be a part of 91 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 2: the family, but that's not really your life, and you 92 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: really don't want to be a part of that life, 93 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,919 Speaker 2: like that complication. But at the same time, you with 94 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: the shits like if it go down and go down, 95 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 2: Like I ain't scared of you much, but I'm just 96 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 2: that's that's my brother and them, that's my mom and 97 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: there my auntie and him. That that's day life. I 98 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 2: in a lot of ways relate to the character. That's 99 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 2: like my father would not let my uncles in them 100 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: bring me around, and my uncles in them knew that 101 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 2: my dad didn't play, so they kept me at a 102 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 2: little bit. 103 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: Of a distance. 104 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 2: That really resonates with me, you know, So please go 105 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 2: see this show. It's about those type of complications. But 106 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 2: anyway I bring this up. Michelle Yo, the girl that's 107 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 2: in girl that professional won that just won an Emmy, 108 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: that's in everything, everywhere, all at once. It's just just 109 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 2: this brilliant, brilliant actress, the mom and that. So she's 110 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 2: in there and her character's phenomenal. But anyway, when she 111 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 2: goes and plays Majong with all these aunties, just these ladies, 112 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 2: that's really how she understands what's going on in the hood. 113 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 2: Like how she knows what's going on in the streets. 114 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 2: It's because of this network of people just gossiping. These 115 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,840 Speaker 2: aunties whose brother, you know, her husband sleeping with his secretary. 116 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 2: His secretary run this grocery store. Who know because they 117 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 2: serve out the back of that liquor store right there, 118 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 2: and they serve the owner of that restaurant whose mistress 119 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 2: works there because her daughter is dating this nephew. So 120 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 2: that network, yo, saying it's so real, you feel me 121 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 2: now for me.

I just need 174 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 2: to know if it do go too bad, like if 175 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 2: I'm about to squab and I do know, excuse me, 176 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 2: but I just want to make sure you got me 177 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 2: just in case, Like if them niggas jump in, I 178 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 2: know you gonna come help, right and even if you not, 179 00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:26,800 Speaker 2: like I said, like if this is just we just 180 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 2: like this is just my boy, that's my ace, Like 181 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 2: we may not even it may not be on set, 182 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 2: like I might not even and I'm probably not even 183 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 2: on set. It's like he on set, I'm not, but 184 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 2: we just know, like this nigga happened to go to 185 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 2: school today. If it go down, he need to know 186 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 2: a if it go down, you got me. So a 187 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 2: lot of times how you get affiliated is like this. 188 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 2: It's like this is just my friend, Like we walked 189 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: home together since elementary school. He lived two doors down 190 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: for me. He on the set, but so of course, man, 191 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: I'm gonna defend my homeboy, like if he getting packed 192 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 2: out like, I'm not gonna just stand around let him 193 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 2: get packed out. And especially if we're playing for it, 194 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 2: he's just like, yo, you got me. It's like, yeah, 195 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 2: I got you. So it's same go when they come 196 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 2: up in our hood, or like if the police come, 197 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: it's like, man, you can't beat us all, you can't 198 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 2: arrest us all. So you come out in force, like 199 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 2: that's what you're supposed to do. The guy that he's 200 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: fighting the guys that he's fighting, sees this and now, oh, 201 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: I'm with them. I'm now officially an OP because even 202 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,439 Speaker 2: though I'm not on the set, you fought alongside somebody 203 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 2: that is so as far as the ops concern, they're like, 204 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 2: it don't make no difference to me. 205 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: You wanted them. 206 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 2: So now I'm affiliated, which is something that like it 207 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 2: happens all the time. So in a lot of ways, 208 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 2: this is how countries make foreign allies. Is like, are 209 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: you gonna jump in if I'm getting packed out? I 210 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 2: saw all I need to know. Are you gonna jump 211 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 2: in if I'm gonna get packed out? Really that's NATO, 212 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 2: the NATO agreement is if you getting packed out, We're 213 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 2: gonna jump in. 214 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: You want to understand NATO. It's that. 215 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 2: I mean, this isn't necessarily a NATO situation, but that's 216 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: basically you know, that's the idea. Now specifics the Americans, 217 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 2: as in US hit a nice little drone, little weapon strike, 218 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 2: little bomb strike at the nation of Yemen in response 219 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: to the Hoothy's throwing little missiles at ships going through 220 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,959 Speaker 2: the Red Sea. Now, why this is the thing is 221 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 2: we need to understand who Yemen is, their years of 222 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 2: civil war. You need to know who the Houthy are 223 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: and why the Red Sea is so important. 224 00:11:37,240 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: Let's get to it, all right, So we're back. Here's 225 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: the thing. 226 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 2: There's a lot of history here, and the history isn't complicated, 227 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 2: like the same thing with like the network of like 228 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 2: hood stuff. It's not complicated if you're from there. If 229 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: you're from there, this is just the air you've been breathing. 230 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: These are the things that you already understand. You know 231 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 2: the players, you know the people on the chess board, 232 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 2: you know how the relationships work, and how far this 233 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 2: stuff go back. 234 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: That's if you in it. 235 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 2: If you're not in it, you learning all this stuff 236 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 2: secondhand and in a book, and a lot of times it. 237 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: Don't make sense. These connections. 238 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 2: Well, I'm gonna try to do is try to make 239 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: these connections make sense. What the hell does Yemen have 240 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: to do with Palestine, which has to do with America, 241 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 2: which got to do with this Israel guys of war, 242 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 2: Like what is how is any of this stuff connected? First, 243 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 2: you need to talk about Yemen. And the first thing 244 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 2: you need to know about Yemen, if anything, know that 245 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 2: it is it's the it's the poorest air quotes poorest 246 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 2: Arab nation. Because remember Arab nations are freakishly rich with resources, 247 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 2: with natural resources, whether it's oil, whatever the case may be. 248 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 2: It's just so has such a wealth of resources, and 249 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 2: a lot of the nations have figured out how to 250 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 2: get involved. 251 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: In the global economy. 252 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,440 Speaker 2: Yemen been in such a civil war and quietly has 253 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,359 Speaker 2: been one of the greatest up until now humanitarian crises. 254 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: I mean even during the Syrian refugee crisis, like what 255 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: was going on in Yemen was so bad, and part 256 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: of that has to do with a civil war. Another 257 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 2: thing to know about Yemen is it's probably one of 258 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 2: the most beautiful It's coffee. There's even just little this 259 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 2: little friendly rivalry between Yemen and Ethiopia about who had 260 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 2: coffee first. Now, granted, coffee was discovered in Ethiopia, that 261 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 2: is official, everybody knows. But who started grinding, brewing and 262 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 2: putting it in water? The Yemenies say they first. I 263 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: don't know, but it is really hard to get your 264 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 2: hands on some Yemenese beans, which was why I made 265 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: the song Yemenese Beans, which I'm gonna make sure Matt 266 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 2: puts in this thing. 267 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: Matt, you hear me, You gotta put that song into 268 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: this thing. 269 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: I don't dare because all of it's unfair. I'm just 270 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: trying to manage my own square to get the blue 271 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 2: right on these Yemenese beans and run up the scoreboard 272 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: on all y'all teams. 273 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 1: Like grand you're more all ride for the poor, staying 274 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: with the fuse, staying with the crew. 275 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 2: I'm giving out game, investing in change. So it's coffee 276 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 2: is at such a premium, first of all, because it 277 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 2: is undeniably delicious, like the this is my world's combining, 278 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 2: but like the quality. 279 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: Grade of the Yemenese. 280 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 2: Bean because it hasn't been exported often, because it's not 281 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 2: oversaturated in the market equality and the taste is like 282 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 2: there's no there's really no other flavor profile anywhere in 283 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 2: the world like Yemen E's coffee. It's insane. It just it. 284 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 2: It can't get out the docks because of war. Second 285 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: thing you need to know about Yemen that makes this 286 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 2: story so important is where Yemen is. A simple cursory 287 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 2: look at a map would make you understand why the 288 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 2: Red Sea is so important. Like just right now in 289 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 2: your brain, just picture the Horn of Africa and then 290 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 2: the Sinai Peninsula where Saudi Arabia Yemen. Where that other 291 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,120 Speaker 2: little piece over there right that the top of that 292 00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 2: little piece is you have where egypt land connects to 293 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 2: what we call the Middle East, and that border on 294 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 2: the bottom of that is Gaza. So now Yemen is 295 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 2: on that that little piece that's connected to the Horn 296 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 2: of Africa. You have the top part where Egypt is, 297 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,479 Speaker 2: and then the bottom part where like Ethiopia and se Sudan. 298 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 1: Is that little piece just across the river. 299 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 2: That little piece on the bottom that's the main part 300 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 2: of that is Saudi Arabia. The little bottom part is Yemen. 301 00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: That's why it was so easy for coffee to go 302 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 2: the sect. The first the first stop that caught when 303 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 2: coffee left Ethiopia was Yemen. Now that little area you 304 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 2: have to think about if you're taking things from let's 305 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 2: just use the European the Eurocentric terms the. 306 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: East to the west. 307 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,120 Speaker 2: If you need to get to the Mediterranean, you trying 308 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: to get to spices from India to Spain or Portugal. 309 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 2: If you're shipping things from Greece right down into India, 310 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 2: you trying. 311 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: To go to Asia.

You have this place 361 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 2: that has its own issues and its own agenda and 362 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 2: things that itself is trying to accomplish, and like anybody, 363 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 2: you looking for help, right, Like I said, in relation 364 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 2: to the rest of the Arab nations, like Yemen is 365 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: the least wealthy, so they gonna need some help on 366 00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: them weapons. Another thing you need to understand about what 367 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 2: you should already. I mean, if you listen on my show, 368 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 2: you should know this stuff already, is that like it's 369 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 2: a Muslim nation, but there are a lot of different 370 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 2: types of Muslims, just like there's a lot of different Christians. 371 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 2: Like I mean, it's just it's so insane in the 372 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 2: West that like we just don't understand that you like 373 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 2: Shia and Sunny that's even an umbrella. Like there's just 374 00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,199 Speaker 2: like Christian and Catholic, or like Protestant and Catholic, like 375 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 2: among the name Protestant. You know how many different denominations, 376 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 2: you understand what I'm saying. So there's so many different 377 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 2: things in there. So just because so even some of 378 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 2: that right wing like you know, fantasy war porn, that's 379 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 2: like hella racists that kind of had this idea that 380 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 2: the Muslim nations, the Muslim world is gonna take over, 381 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 2: like niggas don't get along, Like don't y'all understand that 382 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 2: like Shia and Sunni, like they're different, they different, and 383 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: they beef so just because they both Muslim, just like 384 00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 2: don't think just because like Islam is just as diverse 385 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 2: as every other like monotheistic Abrahamic religion. So like don't 386 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:12,680 Speaker 2: be silly, like it's so there's so much diversity among 387 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 2: the religion, my lord, like y'all know, you know, I 388 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 2: come from a Christian background, and like the theological differences 389 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 2: how serious they run like it it runs deep, Like 390 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 2: it's Christians that think other Christians ain't Christians that like, 391 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 2: y'all are in such error, right that like we're not 392 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 2: even sure if you saved or not. Like, and they're 393 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 2: both Christians, So theological differences can run very deep. 394 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: Man. 395 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 2: One year, I was performing some poetry at the MLK 396 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 2: fifty years celebration and they had a preacher get up 397 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 2: there and say, MLK, you know he was grave. I mean, 398 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 2: he was wrong about the Gospel, but he did great things. 399 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: I'm like, what, Like, it's too bad he was a 400 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 2: false price. Like it runs deep, y'all. And among the 401 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 2: way that that religion can play out nationally, right in 402 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 2: the same way that we got Christian nationalists and you 403 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 2: got Christian pacifists, remember, like think about it like this, 404 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:18,160 Speaker 2: in the way that Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Syria are 405 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: Muslim countries, so it's Morocco. You see them exporting any terrorists, 406 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 2: you see them involved in it. It's because your faith 407 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 2: can map onto nationalism, just like Christianity maps on the 408 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:39,719 Speaker 2: nationalism in ways that aren't necessarily reflections of the faith 409 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 2: as much as it's reflections. 410 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: Of that people there. 411 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 2: You feel me, like how Donald Trump could convince any 412 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 2: evangelical that he wanted them. Is proof of what I'm 413 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 2: talking about. It's people that really look in Revelation and 414 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 2: think America is mentioned in this that we are a 415 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 2: part of the revival of Christ coming back, like they 416 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 2: really think America in the Bible. Now, quick and dirty 417 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 2: idea of the Huthie their civil war and who's got 418 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 2: who's back? Okay, so civil war basically started in we're 419 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 2: gonna say the war itself twenty fourteen. But you got 420 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 2: to back up a little bits when basically when the 421 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 2: Huthis took over the capital and overthrew their government. For 422 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 2: any of that to make sense, you got to understand 423 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 2: who the Houthis are, right, and the historical context when 424 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 2: Islam first came to Yemen, because the Arab nations are 425 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 2: just like everybody else. They were tribal nations, right and 426 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 2: had their own local beliefs. And then one of the 427 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: one of the crusades happened just this happened to be 428 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 2: a Muslim one, so it's like Arab nations are no different. 429 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: It was Zaidism and I'm trying my best. 430 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 1: I looked up how to pronounce it. Hopefully that's close enough. 431 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 2: But Zaidism that was up north, right, so and they 432 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 2: were again they were they were they were Shia. Now 433 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 2: the Sunnies were down south, and they came a little 434 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 2: bit later, right, and they started competing with each other. 435 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 1: And those were the Rosalids. 436 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 2: And that's again these are sects of Islam that we 437 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 2: don't have time to go into. But their rivalry essentially 438 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 2: was cut short by the. 439 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: Fall of the. 440 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 2: Rosalid rule and the succession of the imperialless powers and 441 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 2: the involvement in the Middle East and basically the expansions 442 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 2: of like the Ottoman Empire once anyway, this is what 443 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 2: happens when empires get involved. Man, it's just like you 444 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 2: just you map yourself onto these worlds that are already 445 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 2: having their things going on, and then it basically exacerbates 446 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 2: the problem. Fast forward to the who Thi's all right, 447 00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:00,640 Speaker 2: so the whu this? They're from the north, they're Zaiati, right, 448 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 2: zaiads Zadi God. I wish I knew. I wish I've 449 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 2: been trying to practice Arabic. I should have just stuck 450 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 2: to it. Anyway, So once they were not in power 451 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,719 Speaker 2: like anything else, just like the Ethiopian and stuff. Once 452 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 2: they were not in powered, they started facing discrimination. They 453 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 2: felt like the remember their Shia, they felt like the 454 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 2: sunification of policies, right, the governments that was mostly Soony 455 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: ended up being issues for them as Shia, and like 456 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 2: everywhere else, the group that's not in power eventually puts 457 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 2: together an armed resistance, and the arm resistance became their 458 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 2: own government once they overthrew the capital, right, And they 459 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 2: overthrew the capital through an armed resistance, and now they're 460 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 2: actually in charge of most of Yemen, right, but they're 461 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 2: still beefing because remember, at least as far as this 462 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,080 Speaker 2: narrative is concerned, they used to be on top. The 463 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:03,400 Speaker 2: Houthis are the rebels who took over, right, that's the idea. 464 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 2: Right now, if you ask the West, they are terrorists. 465 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 2: Now that's if you ask the West. Now, I'm pretty 466 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 2: sure you ask different people in Yemen, maybe like absolutely, 467 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 2: then you ask other people that are like no, the 468 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 2: government we had was this was gross, gross human rights 469 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 2: concerns happening with our actual government. Now while this is 470 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 2: going on, remember I said the location of Yemen is 471 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 2: very important. That it's two people that had jump in 472 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia and Iran and quick and dirty. The Houthis 473 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 2: are backed by Iran. They're assuming, right, So the Houthis 474 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 2: are backed by Iran. You remember, Iran's connected to Hesbualah, 475 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 2: which is connected to Lebanon, which is you know which 476 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 2: has backed the Palestinian cause. Right now, you follow in 477 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 2: the web the other side of Saudi Arabia. Now, Saudi 478 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,879 Speaker 2: has this really interesting relationship with the rest of the 479 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 2: Arab nations because Saudi Arabia is completely cool with America, 480 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 2: and I think in a lot of ways that's an 481 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: issue over there. 482 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: It's a big issue. 483 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 2: Because niggas don't trust America, and I mean, I don't 484 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,960 Speaker 2: blame them, but that's a thing. One of the reasons 485 00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 2: why it's just such a big issue is because you 486 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 2: ever asked what Mecca is. 487 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: Mecca's in Saudi Arabia. 488 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 2: So every person practicing Islam has to make their Hajj, 489 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 2: you have to make a pilgrimage to Mecca. Saudi became 490 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 2: the sort of steward of the city of Mecca where 491 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 2: they make their pilgrimage and walk around the thing seven times. That, like, 492 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 2: Saudi is a super important thing. And secondly, as far 493 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: as America is concerned. We need some homies in the region. 494 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 2: How do we get the homies in the region. Well, 495 00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 2: one of them was Israel.
