WEBVTT - Do We Put Too Much Pressure On Our Friends?

0:00:00.560 --> 0:00:08.080
<v Speaker 1>It's topic times called eight hundred and five five one

0:00:08.680 --> 0:00:11.239
<v Speaker 1>to join into the discussion with the Breakfast Club talk

0:00:11.280 --> 0:00:11.600
<v Speaker 1>about it.

0:00:13.680 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 2>Good morning everybody at ej NV, Charlamagne the Guy. We

0:00:17.079 --> 0:00:19.520
<v Speaker 2>are the Breakfast Club. We are celebrating the twentieth season

0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:22.279
<v Speaker 2>of wild'n Out. We have cast members every morning this

0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:25.320
<v Speaker 2>week and we have Chico Bean and Justina Valentine this morning,

0:00:25.720 --> 0:00:28.080
<v Speaker 2>and we're asking this comes from a comment that Game

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:31.440
<v Speaker 2>said yesterday. We're talking about friends. Do we put too

0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:33.280
<v Speaker 2>much pressure on our friends?

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:34.480
<v Speaker 3>That is the question.

0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:36.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, things change, you know, at one time, yeah,

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:38.839
<v Speaker 2>it was easy. We play ball all day long, we

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:41.239
<v Speaker 2>play video games. You know, we'll go out and hang go.

0:00:41.240 --> 0:00:42.159
<v Speaker 3>To the clubs and all that.

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:45.000
<v Speaker 2>But now when you get a little older, you got families,

0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 2>the things to do.

0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:47.600
<v Speaker 3>Do we put too much pressure on our friends? That

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:48.080
<v Speaker 3>is the question.

0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 4>We start with you, Justina, Yes, because some of your friends,

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:53.720
<v Speaker 4>you know, they just don't progress with you. They want

0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:56.280
<v Speaker 4>to stay bombs. They still sell in regular.

0:00:55.960 --> 0:00:57.400
<v Speaker 3>Weed and you still have them.

0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:01.320
<v Speaker 4>He's the truth, but you gotta love them from afar

0:01:01.360 --> 0:01:03.520
<v Speaker 4>because we're not selling regular weed no more, like we're

0:01:03.520 --> 0:01:06.120
<v Speaker 4>doing different things. And then and then those people become

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:09.760
<v Speaker 4>liabilities because I have some friends that I love, I

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.120
<v Speaker 4>grew up with, but I can't bring them around anymore

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:14.319
<v Speaker 4>because I don't know what they're gonna do. And then

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:16.720
<v Speaker 4>they're a reflection of meat. So you gotta love them

0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:19.040
<v Speaker 4>from a distance, not bring them to your industry events.

0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 3>And you know, it's a space in your heart.

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:23.400
<v Speaker 2>You are the celebrity of the crew, right, you're on

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:25.120
<v Speaker 2>wilding Out, You're doing so many different things.

0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:26.600
<v Speaker 3>You had a movie, you got records.

0:01:26.640 --> 0:01:29.000
<v Speaker 2>So when they have events, you are the person they

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:31.160
<v Speaker 2>expect to come because they want to show you off

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:33.759
<v Speaker 2>to their friends, right, And that's not a real friend.

0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 4>And it's like a meet and greet when you think

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:38.200
<v Speaker 4>you're going to Summon's birthday or like family party. So

0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:39.800
<v Speaker 4>it's like you got to pick and choose when you

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 4>do it. You can't do all of them. And if

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:44.480
<v Speaker 4>they're really a friend, they're gonna understand. And there's a

0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:46.920
<v Speaker 4>lot of people that don't understand. But like I said,

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:49.560
<v Speaker 4>by a bou, buy a little outside of regular weed

0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:50.040
<v Speaker 4>from them.

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 3>And keep it moving.

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's not disparage regular weed. There's still a market

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:57.680
<v Speaker 5>for that out here. There is definitely a market and

0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 5>there's some successful salesmen of regular weeks, so salute to

0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:03.480
<v Speaker 5>those dudes. But I think that I just think people

0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 5>are dependent upon what you bring when you have a

0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 5>certain type of energy. So I never fought people for

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:11.760
<v Speaker 5>being upset about not being able to have my presence

0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:14.679
<v Speaker 5>because I understand the type of energy that I bring

0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:17.440
<v Speaker 5>to any situation. So I think that we have a

0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 5>responsibility as people who have been given the blessings that

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:20.960
<v Speaker 5>we've been given.

0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 3>If somebody is really your friend and somebody you really.

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 5>Love them, to sit them down and explain, like what

0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:28.200
<v Speaker 5>comes with this because they don't understand. They just see

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.800
<v Speaker 5>what they think is going on. It's times that you

0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 5>have to take the time out to say, hey man,

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 5>this is the reason why this has to change, and

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 5>this is different, and this is different. I think without

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:39.800
<v Speaker 5>doing that, you're just letting them, leaving them to their

0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.160
<v Speaker 5>own devices, and you're not allowing them to understand what

0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:45.240
<v Speaker 5>comes with a level of success that most people never reach.

0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:47.959
<v Speaker 5>Like how many Djmvies in your family? Right, how many

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:50.200
<v Speaker 5>Charlemagne's in yours? It's only one of those, you know

0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:52.440
<v Speaker 5>what I mean? So when you are that one, you

0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:54.440
<v Speaker 5>it comes with a greater responsibility.

0:02:54.480 --> 0:02:56.520
<v Speaker 3>I will say this. You know, for me, it's not

0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:58.560
<v Speaker 3>even the money, the celebrity or the fam. It's more

0:02:58.600 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 3>of the family. Right.

0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:02.400
<v Speaker 2>I got six and a wife, so it's like it's

0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:05.280
<v Speaker 2>separating that time. So if somebody has a birthday party

0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:07.239
<v Speaker 2>or something has somebody, I got to split that time

0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:09.920
<v Speaker 2>with my kids playing football, my kids playing basketball, or

0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:12.000
<v Speaker 2>me just trying to be there for my kids. You know,

0:03:12.200 --> 0:03:15.000
<v Speaker 2>like you said, we are on the road, we're doing shows.

0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:17.240
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes you lucky enough where you can take your daughter

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 2>because she sometimes she doesn't have school. But the times

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:21.480
<v Speaker 2>when we are home, it's like I want to get

0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:23.040
<v Speaker 2>that time in that I missed, you know what I mean.

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:25.680
<v Speaker 2>And sometimes I'd be like, I'll be honest, I don't

0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:26.840
<v Speaker 2>want to go. I want to spend the time with

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:28.600
<v Speaker 2>my wife. I want to spend the time with my kids.

0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:31.760
<v Speaker 2>I like seeing the moments of you know, like this

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:34.760
<v Speaker 2>weekend was I call my daughter a jailbird, right, this

0:03:34.920 --> 0:03:36.800
<v Speaker 2>was the first time she broke out of her crib,

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.119
<v Speaker 2>like she hopped over the thing. Like I was there

0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 2>for that. But if i'd have been on the road

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:42.000
<v Speaker 2>or i'd been I would have missed that, you know,

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:42.400
<v Speaker 2>what I mean.

0:03:42.400 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 5>So my dad comes with a level of being in

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 5>the game for a certain amount of time and certain

0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 5>things that's never going to impress you anymore because you've

0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.440
<v Speaker 5>been doing this for thirty years, right, So if you

0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:54.240
<v Speaker 5>still trying to get the pleasure of being in the

0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:56.800
<v Speaker 5>club after thirty years, of course you tripping. You know

0:03:56.880 --> 0:04:00.560
<v Speaker 5>I'm talking about for those that progression, the process of aggression.

0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.920
<v Speaker 5>Throughout your career, You've had to teach people as they

0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:06.240
<v Speaker 5>go with you. Now, if you thirty years in and

0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 5>it's still somebody mad at you don't want to come

0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 5>to the strip club, then that's not your friend. But

0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:13.920
<v Speaker 5>somebody who understands you grew them to understand that, Hey,

0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:15.880
<v Speaker 5>I got six kids, now now it's time for me

0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:19.479
<v Speaker 5>to dedicate myself this direction. Like most people don't understand

0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:21.120
<v Speaker 5>that if you don't teach them, because they don't ever

0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 5>get to the position to be able to do the

0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:25.440
<v Speaker 5>things that you do being somebody who's successful.

0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I agree with Game for the most part. I

0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:29.000
<v Speaker 6>agree with most of what he's saying because if you're

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:30.480
<v Speaker 6>my friend, you're my friend. But I'm not going to

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:32.440
<v Speaker 6>put pressure on you. I'm not gonna scresh you to

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:35.320
<v Speaker 6>show up everywhere because just because you're my partner, but

0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:37.480
<v Speaker 6>you also got to know your friends, right like all

0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:39.560
<v Speaker 6>my people know how I am. Folks know I don't

0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:41.280
<v Speaker 6>like to go out, Okay, you know what I mean.

0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.640
<v Speaker 6>But I do think you have to make time for

0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:45.520
<v Speaker 6>your real friends, you know what I mean. I have

0:04:45.600 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 6>friends that I want to see at least once a month.

0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:49.320
<v Speaker 6>I like kicking it with them, so you know, we

0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:51.760
<v Speaker 6>make sure we get up in politic at least once

0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:53.560
<v Speaker 6>a month. But I'm also in the blood position that

0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:55.760
<v Speaker 6>I have, you know, business with my friends, and you know,

0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.200
<v Speaker 6>I work with my friends, and like you know, we

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.159
<v Speaker 6>end up in a lot of the same spaces. Like

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 6>even last going out to the you know, the book

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:03.760
<v Speaker 6>a whole thing, my best friend, my wife is withn't

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:06.080
<v Speaker 6>even like it's like Angela Raya is there, you know,

0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 6>Mallory is there. Like these my people, my son and dad.

0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:10.320
<v Speaker 6>He's my partner, so it was good that all of

0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:12.479
<v Speaker 6>us could get together for moments like that.

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:14.560
<v Speaker 5>And you've upgraded your circle, you know what I mean.

0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:16.719
<v Speaker 5>You've upgraded the circle of people that you're able to

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:18.760
<v Speaker 5>operate with. Most people don't. That's what I'm saying they

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.440
<v Speaker 5>don't have the access that you have. So if you upgrade,

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:23.680
<v Speaker 5>your friends, like all of us in here, have the

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:26.560
<v Speaker 5>same level of access depending on where we are. Most

0:05:26.560 --> 0:05:28.920
<v Speaker 5>people that come with you only gonna have that access

0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:31.880
<v Speaker 5>if you're there. So you've got to be able to

0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:34.400
<v Speaker 5>help your friends upgrade their access, you know what I mean.

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:36.360
<v Speaker 5>And I think that comes with that level of training

0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:36.960
<v Speaker 5>throughout the time.

0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.280
<v Speaker 2>But I also like, even with my friends, I like

0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:41.200
<v Speaker 2>to invite them to my crib. And the reason why

0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:43.280
<v Speaker 2>my friends because now everything's at my crab. I got

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:45.560
<v Speaker 2>my kids here, I got my wife. You bring your kids.

0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 2>Now it's family. We can sit there, we can drink.

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:49.839
<v Speaker 2>We ain't got to worry about getting home. We ain't

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:51.839
<v Speaker 2>got to worry about what happens out there, and we

0:05:51.880 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 2>could just enjoy.

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 3>Hey, babe, we could get both. We're going to Djambi house.

0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:56.920
<v Speaker 3>That's what it is.

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 5>We get to come to his house and see how

0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:01.080
<v Speaker 5>coming through. We can buy some bracelets as an entry.

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:07.320
<v Speaker 3>Hello from you, what's up?

0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:07.560
<v Speaker 7>Brother?

0:06:07.640 --> 0:06:09.440
<v Speaker 3>Talk to us. We're talking about do we put too

0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:10.599
<v Speaker 3>much pressure on our friends?

0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:14.000
<v Speaker 7>Yeah? I think a lot of you. You gotta do

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:19.800
<v Speaker 7>like females because ie, female friends break off for birthdays.

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:22.800
<v Speaker 7>I've been with a lot of my ducts. I've been

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:25.400
<v Speaker 7>went to high school. You probably see each other, like

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:27.479
<v Speaker 7>you know, every once in a while, but it's not

0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 7>really that important to us. We know you got me

0:06:29.560 --> 0:06:33.240
<v Speaker 7>to do. But female, is that true? Justine realis?

0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:34.559
<v Speaker 3>So this is Justina.

0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:37.240
<v Speaker 6>If you got homegirls and they don't repost your maximum cover,

0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 6>you feel like they're not your friends.

0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:40.800
<v Speaker 3>No, it's all good. Listen.

0:06:40.920 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 4>I think you got to accept people for who they

0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:45.720
<v Speaker 4>are and how much they could give you. You know what

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:48.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean, because everyone's not the same, so you know

0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:50.240
<v Speaker 4>you can reciprocate the energy or just know who that

0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:52.920
<v Speaker 4>person is. But females with the birthdays, yes, a lot

0:06:52.960 --> 0:06:55.359
<v Speaker 4>of them are crazy. If you miss a birthday event

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:57.520
<v Speaker 4>like you are out of their friend circle. I don't

0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:58.600
<v Speaker 4>know why females are like that.

0:06:58.680 --> 0:06:59.200
<v Speaker 3>I'm not like that.

0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:02.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm the type of like celebrate other people. But some

0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:05.679
<v Speaker 4>females don't play about that. I've seen girls not speak

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:07.520
<v Speaker 4>to other girls. I was like one of the besties

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:09.480
<v Speaker 4>because they couldn't make it to a birthday.

0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 3>Trip, which is crazy. They do, yes, they don't play

0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:13.680
<v Speaker 3>with it. Posting like not.

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 2>Posting a front on a birthday and not posting a

0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:17.280
<v Speaker 2>maximum couver and not posting an event.

0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:19.040
<v Speaker 5>I saw it before, But I can understand where that

0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 5>comes from too, because most people, the most exciting time

0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 5>of their year is their birthday. You know, That's the only.

0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:26.760
<v Speaker 3>Day that's all about that.

0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 5>Real that's the only day that they get celebrated, and

0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:32.960
<v Speaker 5>then it's about them like their life is horrible, except

0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.480
<v Speaker 5>but this is the only time I get to be

0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.240
<v Speaker 5>excited and people are happy to be around me, and

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.000
<v Speaker 5>you kind of forced to be happy to be able

0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.520
<v Speaker 5>to be around somebody on their birthday. So when it's

0:07:42.560 --> 0:07:45.040
<v Speaker 5>like a birthday trip to somebody or birthday dinner and

0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 5>somebody be like, I'm good now, you really don't got

0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:49.240
<v Speaker 5>to deal with me because you don't rock with me

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:51.520
<v Speaker 5>the rest of the year anyway, and you missed my

0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:53.640
<v Speaker 5>birthday dinner. So that's why I think people get mad

0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:56.880
<v Speaker 5>at that, because most people get their happiness on their birthday.

0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 6>So what if your friend call you and says happy

0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:04.120
<v Speaker 6>birthday and pours into you. Wouldn't you rather that rather

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:06.400
<v Speaker 6>that than the public display of affection on social media.

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 4>Public want the public display more than anything else. They

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:12.480
<v Speaker 4>don't even care if they want to show public.

0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:14.600
<v Speaker 3>Let's let's let's talk about this more when we come back.

0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:15.960
<v Speaker 2>And I don't really do the birthday did this because

0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:22.440
<v Speaker 2>I know that trick, right, that's the trick like eight

0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:24.560
<v Speaker 2>hundred five A five one oh five one?

0:08:24.600 --> 0:08:26.600
<v Speaker 3>Do we put too much pressure on our friends? Pull

0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:26.880
<v Speaker 3>us up?

0:08:26.920 --> 0:08:27.000
<v Speaker 5>Now?

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:28.120
<v Speaker 3>It's the breakfast clog the morning.

<v Speaker 2>our friends?

0:08:50.200 --> 0:08:50.360
<v Speaker 3>Now?

0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:52.720
<v Speaker 2>This comes from the game The game Left to comment,

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:54.640
<v Speaker 2>and I'm gonna read some of it though it was

0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:55.480
<v Speaker 2>pretty interesting.

0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.160
<v Speaker 3>Who read better? You are just hilarious? Should I say

0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:02.280
<v Speaker 3>who read worse? I still love jes.

0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:04.520
<v Speaker 4>I love Jack's accent, Like.

0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.319
<v Speaker 5>You need to be a segment who raised their hand

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:11.280
<v Speaker 5>on the Breakfast Club and just get people to.

0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:17.440
<v Speaker 3>Call in and read out loud. That'd be crazy, liar.

0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:18.920
<v Speaker 3>You know. I used to bet him every morning and

0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:20.880
<v Speaker 3>I was like, if you can read this, this sentence.

0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:22.640
<v Speaker 2>So this paragraph, without messing up, I'll give you one

0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:24.600
<v Speaker 2>hundred dollars and I would win every morning.

0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:26.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we need to do that. That needs to be

0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:30.400
<v Speaker 3>a good segment, because you had to read over it

0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 3>a couple of times.

0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:33.680
<v Speaker 2>It now the game said, y'all put too much pressure

0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:36.400
<v Speaker 2>on friends. We are all grown now. If a friend

0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:39.000
<v Speaker 2>can't make it, they can't make it. If you ain't

0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:41.360
<v Speaker 2>talking to your friend in two weeks, that's okay.

0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:43.720
<v Speaker 3>If they got to sit you out.

0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:51.439
<v Speaker 5>Joy Up next, we got Charlamagne and the God give

0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:53.280
<v Speaker 5>it a shot on who raised their hand?

0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:55.120
<v Speaker 3>You read it, I'm gonna give it to you.

0:09:55.800 --> 0:10:00.680
<v Speaker 6>I'm give it to you. You let me see, y'all

0:10:00.720 --> 0:10:02.840
<v Speaker 6>put too much pressure on friends. We are all grown now.

0:10:02.880 --> 0:10:04.480
<v Speaker 6>If a friend can't make it, they can't make it.

0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:06.000
<v Speaker 6>If you ain't talk to your friend in two weeks,

0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:07.960
<v Speaker 6>that's okay. If they got to sit out your birthday

0:10:08.000 --> 0:10:11.240
<v Speaker 6>festivities because money funny, that's okay. We've grown now, got kids,

0:10:11.360 --> 0:10:14.280
<v Speaker 6>husband's boyfriends, wife's girlfriend's careers. It's just not enough time

0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:17.160
<v Speaker 6>in the day to give your man, kids, customers, clients, work, friends, siblings,

0:10:17.160 --> 0:10:19.600
<v Speaker 6>et cetera. One hundred percent and still be mentally stable.

0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:21.600
<v Speaker 6>We are at an age now where it's when we

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:23.440
<v Speaker 6>see each other. We see each other when we do

0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:25.520
<v Speaker 6>be present and love on each other during that time.

0:10:25.520 --> 0:10:35.400
<v Speaker 6>My mother is an English teachers, bestselling authors.

0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:37.960
<v Speaker 4>Your inflections were just perfection.

0:10:39.559 --> 0:10:42.600
<v Speaker 5>That's somebody to get paid to read ads?

0:10:42.679 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 3>Right is.

0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:50.880
<v Speaker 2>We got Kierro Good morning Cairo. Hello, Hey, what's your thoughts?

0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 2>So you put too much pressure on your friends.

0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.920
<v Speaker 7>You're supposed to, You're really supposed to.

0:10:56.200 --> 0:10:59.040
<v Speaker 4>People let you love to eat these days and.

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:03.800
<v Speaker 7>That's why everybody turning out so selfish. I can't tell

0:11:03.840 --> 0:11:06.240
<v Speaker 7>you how many says of anything that I do for people.

0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:10.440
<v Speaker 7>They need to reciprocate that. It's real. Friends.

0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 4>If there's a gap one month, two weeks, you know,

0:11:13.960 --> 0:11:14.720
<v Speaker 4>we're all cool.

0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 6>We're fine.

0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:17.559
<v Speaker 7>I'm in Miami. I think it out my girlfriends in

0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:20.240
<v Speaker 7>New York when I feel like it, and it's all cool.

0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:23.760
<v Speaker 4>But you have people, and I call them vampire leechies.

0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:27.160
<v Speaker 7>They like to come stalk everything from.

0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.120
<v Speaker 3>You as they don't keep nothing back.

0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 7>Thousands of hours talking people from the phone.

0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:35.840
<v Speaker 6>You know, me and my kids and everything help everybody,

0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:38.560
<v Speaker 6>but when it's time, so they don't turn up people

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:39.320
<v Speaker 6>to turn up.

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:41.680
<v Speaker 7>That's why everybody's those delfish the days.

0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:43.240
<v Speaker 3>I do agree with her.

0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:45.679
<v Speaker 6>You do have to reciprocate, Like, you know, this person

0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:49.520
<v Speaker 6>has shown up to your birthday, this person has, you know,

0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 6>hit you up to say happy birthday or whatever.

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:54.679
<v Speaker 3>You should reciprocate that. That's that's that's the least you

0:11:54.720 --> 0:12:01.160
<v Speaker 3>can do. Hello, who's this they Stephan? Good morning doing today?

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:03.079
<v Speaker 3>Good good? You put too much pressure on your friends.

0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:05.800
<v Speaker 7>I used to when I was younger, but as I

0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:08.760
<v Speaker 7>got older, you know, I kinized that that own life

0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:11.080
<v Speaker 7>to stop putting through my own side.

0:12:13.880 --> 0:12:15.679
<v Speaker 3>All right, Well, what's the moral of the story, guys

0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 3>were ending this? How we close this out?

0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:19.480
<v Speaker 6>I mean, I think the moral the stories just reciprocate

0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:21.679
<v Speaker 6>the energy, right, like you should match energies with your friend.

0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, And I think if you're busy enough with your

0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:28.280
<v Speaker 4>own life, you understand the next person when they can't

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:30.480
<v Speaker 4>make it to an evance. So you know, those friends

0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:32.960
<v Speaker 4>that get upset like that, they probably are not in

0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:34.840
<v Speaker 4>the same space or place as you.

0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:37.840
<v Speaker 6>So you know, Justin and Chico, Justina, there somebody you

0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:40.160
<v Speaker 6>got mad at for not posting your maximum cup of Chico.

0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.120
<v Speaker 6>There's somebody that didn't repost eighty five south showing that.

0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:45.960
<v Speaker 3>I reposted it not at all.

0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:48.880
<v Speaker 5>I can care less like that little one back there,

0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:51.959
<v Speaker 5>make sure I stay in pocket on what's important. So

0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:54.960
<v Speaker 5>I really don't care about what anybody else thinks as

0:12:55.000 --> 0:12:58.400
<v Speaker 5>long as she cool. I think having children changes you

0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:01.160
<v Speaker 5>in that regard, like that's the opinion that matters. You know,

0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:04.000
<v Speaker 5>if you're a friend, that's a little different than having

0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:07.200
<v Speaker 5>somebody who's who you're responsible for and who you're obligated to.

0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:09.719
<v Speaker 5>So that's what I dedicate most of my energy to.

0:13:09.840 --> 0:13:12.880
<v Speaker 5>So anybody who can't figure and fit in around that

0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:15.640
<v Speaker 5>ain't a friend to me anyway. So it makes it

0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:19.280
<v Speaker 5>easier to be able to identify what matters, and who

0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:22.240
<v Speaker 5>don't post me, who don't say happy birthday, and who

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:26.120
<v Speaker 5>don't appreciate my accomplishments don't matter because to me, as

0:13:26.160 --> 0:13:29.040
<v Speaker 5>long as she with whatever I got going on, I'm good.

0:13:29.120 --> 0:13:29.720
<v Speaker 3>I would say this.

0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:31.880
<v Speaker 2>I think I speak to my I speak to my

0:13:31.880 --> 0:13:34.959
<v Speaker 2>my true circle of friends every day every day. Somebody

0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:36.760
<v Speaker 2>don't go on and you know you just checking up

0:13:36.760 --> 0:13:38.319
<v Speaker 2>on you or whatever it maybe we in a group chat.

0:13:38.400 --> 0:13:39.840
<v Speaker 3>I speak to them every.

0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Day it's a text at least.

0:13:42.920 --> 0:13:46.920
<v Speaker 5>Necessary though for friendship. But that's not necessary. But I

0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 5>stops talking tomorrow every day with that change the dynamic

0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.480
<v Speaker 5>of your friendship. And that's what That's what I think

0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:54.160
<v Speaker 5>we need to leave it at. You know, if you

0:13:54.280 --> 0:13:57.040
<v Speaker 5>really are friends and it's somebody you really love, then

0:13:57.160 --> 0:13:59.959
<v Speaker 5>it doesn't matter if the communication stops. You can stop

0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:03.040
<v Speaker 5>communicating for months or years. But whenever we come back in,

0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:05.360
<v Speaker 5>it's like we never less friendship.

0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:06.920
<v Speaker 3>That's how I feel. That's exactly I feel.

0:14:06.960 --> 0:14:09.320
<v Speaker 6>That's a real quick question, right for the parents, Should

0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:11.160
<v Speaker 6>our children be our friends? You know they always say

0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:14.040
<v Speaker 6>your children shouldn't be your friends. Yes, like the oldest

0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:16.400
<v Speaker 6>daughter gets you fifteen, that's my little partner, you know

0:14:16.400 --> 0:14:16.719
<v Speaker 6>what I mean?

0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:19.040
<v Speaker 3>My daughter my friends.

0:14:19.040 --> 0:14:21.600
<v Speaker 5>Man, my daughter is my partner. I understand. You can't

0:14:22.040 --> 0:14:24.840
<v Speaker 5>you can't be. In my opinion, you can't be you know,

0:14:25.000 --> 0:14:28.200
<v Speaker 5>naive to the reality of the fact that these kids

0:14:28.240 --> 0:14:31.160
<v Speaker 5>have access to way more information than we did. It

0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:33.800
<v Speaker 5>was much more difficult for our parents to be friends

0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:36.120
<v Speaker 5>with us because of the world that we lived in

0:14:36.120 --> 0:14:39.960
<v Speaker 5>and the lack of information that we had. Now, being

0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:42.720
<v Speaker 5>dishonest with your children, the way that you had to

0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:44.840
<v Speaker 5>kind of be dishonest with us when we were growing up.

0:14:45.040 --> 0:14:46.760
<v Speaker 5>You can't do that because all they gonna do is

0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:48.400
<v Speaker 5>pick the phone up and to see that you full

0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:51.920
<v Speaker 5>of stuff, right, I quote myself, you did all the way.

0:14:51.960 --> 0:14:54.320
<v Speaker 5>So I think that it is possible to be friends now.

0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:54.720
<v Speaker 3>You can't.

0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:57.280
<v Speaker 5>You know, let your kids look at you as somebody

0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.120
<v Speaker 5>that they can be friendly with all the time.

0:14:59.320 --> 0:15:01.000
<v Speaker 3>You gotta have a level of respect there.

0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:03.240
<v Speaker 5>But I want my daughter to be comfortable to talk

0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:04.680
<v Speaker 5>to me as though she would talk to one of

0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:07.280
<v Speaker 5>her buddies. Absolutely, because I want that information to come

0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:09.480
<v Speaker 5>to me first, so I can help her navigate through

0:15:09.520 --> 0:15:12.640
<v Speaker 5>whatever the world has for her that I've already experienced

0:15:12.640 --> 0:15:13.280
<v Speaker 5>that she hasn't.

0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:14.480
<v Speaker 3>So I want to be my kids.

0:15:14.400 --> 0:15:17.040
<v Speaker 6>Love trolling my oldest daughter. We'll be playing the Paul's game,

0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 6>you know what I'm saying. Cause this generation isn't that

0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:24.520
<v Speaker 6>far removed with your fourteen years because they do it

0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:25.760
<v Speaker 6>the way.

0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:26.080
