Speaker 1: Let's gonna be a dunkey because right now you want

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: some drinks.

00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: It's time for Donkey of the day. So if you

4
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,320

Speaker 2: the heath, please doesn't I had become Donkey of the day.

6
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 3: The breakfast club bit, Yes, donkey today for Wednesday, June fourteenth.

7
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 3: We make sure at June fourteenth, yesterday is goes to

8
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:23,919
Speaker 3: Demi Lovado.

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 2: Let the record show.

10
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 3: I don't know Demi Lovado, but I respect her mental

11
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 3: health advocacy. I respect her being open about her bipolar disorder,

12
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 3: her drug addiction, and using her own personal experiences to

13
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 3: help others seek healing. So Demi Lovado, thank you for

14
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 3: your service. But Donkey of the Day does not discriminating.

15
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 3: Demi said something recently in an interview with GQ Spain that.

16
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: Grinded my gears. Oh boy, I simply don't appreciate.

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 3: See, for the last few years, we've all been playing

18
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 3: this hot potato pronoun game. Okay, why do I call

19
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 3: it a hot potato pronoun game because it feels like

20
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: a game of hot potato.

21
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 2: You remember hot potato? Right, Yes, that's right.

22
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 3: You know we're showing our age Ptato is a game

23
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 3: that involves players gathering in a circle and tossing a

24
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 3: small object, maybe a ball or a bean bag, hell,

25
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 3: sometimes even a real potato, to each other while music plays.

26
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 3: The player who is holding the object when the music

27
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 3: stops is eliminated.

28
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: Keyword eliminated.

29
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 3: And that's exactly what it feels like when you are

30
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 3: trying to live in this new world where folks want

31
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 3: to be called by their proper pronoun just literally like

32
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 3: a game of hot potato, because in a game of

33
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 3: hot potato, you have to.

34
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: Move fast get the object out of your hand quickly.

35
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 3: Okay, But in this new world, I could be looking

36
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 3: at a person that is a man and refer to

37
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 3: them as he. Then someone will get mad at me

38
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 3: and tell me I'm miss gendering the person because their

39
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 3: pronoun is her.

40
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 2: And by the time I.

41
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 3: Get to say her, I get told it's she, Then

42
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 3: I get told it's they.

43
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 2: Not a music stops, and I'm labeled.

44
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 3: A miss genderer, and now I'm eliminated. They have been

45
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 3: doing this to us for a few years now. And

46
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 3: remember a couple of years ago, Jimmy Lovado decided to

47
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 3: adjust her pronouns let's listen.

48
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 4: I want to take this moment to share something very

49
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 4: personal with you. Over the past year and a half,

50
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 4: I've been doing some healing and self reflective work, and

51
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 4: through this work, I've had the revelation that I identify

52
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 4: as non binary. I'll officially be changing my pronouns today them.

53
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 4: I feel that this best represents the fluidity I feel

54
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 4: in my gender expression and allows me to feel most

55
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 4: authentic and true to the person I both know I

56
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 4: am and still am discovering. I want to make it

57
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 4: clear that I'm still learning and coming into myself, and

58
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 4: I don't claim to be an expert or a spokesperson.

59
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 4: I will also be accepting if people slip and say

60
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 4: her she, because I know that being in my position,

61
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 4: it's going to take a while for people to get

62
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 4: used to. I just want you're true, them to be

63
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 4: making the effort.

64
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 3: I respect it, Okay, even though they is so confusing

65
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 3: when you're discussing one person. Okay, I'm at the point

66
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 3: when I see they, I have to ask how many

67
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 3: people in your party?

68
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 2: When I reply party on one already know what it is?

69
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 3: Okay, but Demmi Levado has adjusted her pronouns all right,

70
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,119
Speaker 3: she has actually re added. She her back to her pronouns,

71
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 3: and her reasoning might confuse you more than the pronouns,

72
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 3: Ducie told GQ Spain, and I'm gonna read it that.

73
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:05,959
Speaker 2: Let me read the whole quote.

74
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 3: I constantly had to educate people and explain why identified

75
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 3: why I identified with those pronouns.

76
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 2: It was absolutely exhausting. I just got tired.

77
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 3: But for that very reason, I know that it is

78
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 3: important to continue spreading the words. So Demi added, she

79
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 3: heard back because she finds it absolutely exhausting. She says

80
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 3: she just got tired of explaining the others why they

81
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 3: changed their pronouns in the first place. Demi, I bet

82
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 3: it is exhausting, But I promise you you're not as

83
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 3: tired as us. Okay, when I say us, I'm talking

84
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 3: about people of all races, ages, religions, ginga's sexualities. I've

85
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 3: had conversations with numerous people about this for years, and

86
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 3: we've been tired. We've been exhausted, and this is why

87
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 3: we always after the confusion, got upset because we knew.

88
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 2: You know, y'all didn't know what y'all was talking about.

89
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 3: Okay, confusion begets confusion exhausting begets exhaustion. I can only

90
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 3: speak for myself on this, but I'm never trying to

91
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 3: offend anyone by misgendering them. Okay, I simply did not know,

92
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 3: and I'm sure there's plenty of people who simply do

93
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 3: not know. But when we would ask, y'all would get upset,

94
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 3: and then we would just assume.

95
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: Then when we would just assume, y'all would get upset.

96
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 3: And then when we called y'all by the wrong pronouns,

97
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 3: not purposely, just because my eyes are saying, you know,

98
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 3: this is a he, but you identify as as she,

99
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 3: then y'all get upset. And then we ask to be taught,

100
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 3: and y'all get upset. If I look at Michael Jackson

101
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 3: and say he he, y'all get upset. Okay, I promise you, demmy,

102
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 3: nothing is more exhausting than that, all right. If I

103
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: was to say what you told GQ Spain in regards

104
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 3: to not even wanting to learn about pronouns, it would

105
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 3: be folks fake outrage trying to cancel me. Imagine me

106
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 3: saying right now, it is absolutely exhausting to keep up

107
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 3: with people's pronouns. I'm tired of keeping up of people's pronouns.

108
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 3: That sentence alan to a publication would cause backlash from

109
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 3: digital d heads on social media. But guess what, Demi,

110
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 3: she said the quiet part out loud. It is absolutely

111
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 3: exhausting on all counts. I'm sure it's absolutely exhausting for

112
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 3: her to have to explain, and it's absolutely exhausting for

113
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 3: us to learn and how we're supposed to learn.

114
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 2: If the soul.

115
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: Called teachers are tired, I can't care about this more

116
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 3: than you do.

117
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 2: Are they do? Are them?

118
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 3: Do?

119
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: Now? I have to do? Do? Please? Give them me

120
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 2: levado the biggest ea.

121
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:25,600
Speaker 3: Huh No, I really do have to go Dodo.

122
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 2: I'm you know, I'm very regular. Are you confused? I am?

123
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 2: Are you tired? No? I thought as a kid they

124
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: refer to two or more.

125
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 3: That's why I say whenever I see the word they,

126
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 3: I ask how many people in your party? If you

127
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 3: tell me party A one? I already know what time

128
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 3: it is? What time is it? That means that it's

129
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 3: somebody who wants to be referred to his day.

130
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 2: It's time for us to go all right.

131
