Speaker 1: didn't say that. Witherston said that. Come to me that

20
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: Angela Ye is the Oprah of radio. I know death

21
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: right to me though, I've been wanting to get Chris

22
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: up here, and I told them as soon as I

23
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 1: knew this show was happening, because I feel like he's

24
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: such an expert right in things that I'm I like

25
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: to bring in people that know more than me in

26
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: different fields. Just like yesterday we were talking about the

27
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 1: collapse of Silicone Valley Bank and Signature Bank. Yeah right,

28
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: and we had art holding on don't talk about that.

29
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: That was a great conversation. But for you, Chris, because

30
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: you know so much when it comes to movies, film entertainment,

31
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: all of that. You know that's a special type of skill.

32
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,559
Speaker 1: And the people you've interviewed, Viola Davis, will Smith over

33
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: several times, several times, Tom Hanks, people like that. I mean,

34
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: come on, come on, name. So it's an honor to

36
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: excited to be here. And I feel like TV and

37
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: the film and TV industry is changing so much and

38
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: doesn't impact how we view life. The stories that we're

39
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: seeing these shows, in these movies, it's bigger than your storytelling.

40
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: So I'm happy to be in this business and I'm

41
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: happy to be here as an expert in that space. Well,

42

154
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: jokes we had that we then got rid of. We

155
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: think that only the best for that roommate it. There

156
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 1: was certainly something that went harder, but we didn't think

157
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: that was our place to do that. That should be

158
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: Chris Rock, not us. But they didn't want to ignore

159
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: it all together. What did you guys think? I think

160
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: that I felt like the jokes were fair. I feel

161
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 1: like it wasn't too hard Yeah, I feel like they

162
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: went a little light, you know, in comparison to what

163
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: I was expecting Jimmy Kimmel to do throughout the night.

164
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,400
Speaker 1: But I kept thinking to myself that just last week

165
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: we had Chris Rock do an hour special where those

166
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: last five minutes really rocked social media, rock the media world.

167
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 1: And I think that Molly and Jimmy, as they were

168
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 1: getting ready to prepare Lost week, they probably thought, you know,

169
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: that didn't turn off that well, you know rocky things

170
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: turn on Chris Rock. It really did that. He dropped

171
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 1: it right before the Oscars. Side. Barty Kimmel's wife is

172
00:08:53,600 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: the EP of the Oscars. Yeah, I's family, hire your husband. Yeah,

173
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 1: But I think that it was the right move for

174
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 1: him not to go to because it's also like, let's celebrate,

175
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: We're celebrating. It's supposed to be a celebration, absolutely, and

176
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: let's focus on this year and the Academy is really

177
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 1: trying to kind of you know, revamp and I think

178
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: make themselves look good after what went wrong last year

179
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: because it was really you know the tang off the

180
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 1: tracks period. Yeah, period period, and they really didn't do anything.

181
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: That's what he said, That's what he said, and you

182
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: kind of can't do anything. Yeah, yeah, all right. Now

183
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: Diddy is looking to get a majority stake in b

184
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: ET as Paramount is putting that network up for sale.

185
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people are bidding for this though,

186
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: by the way, Tyler Perry is trying to do it

187
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: Byron Allen and more people are contending for that. So um.

188
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: And then you know he also has Revolt. It would

189
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: be nice if they did it together, right because I

190
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: feel like, then what happens with revolts? Do you put

191
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: everything together in the same thing. I was saying Tyler Perry,

192
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 1: Byron Allen and Diddy could it would be a nice

193
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: little trio if they combined forces and did it took

194
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: over together. But like they're competing with each other. They

195
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: know it's et making a lot of money right now?

196
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: Or are they somehow endangerous that white folks trying to

197
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: buy them? Where is it like some kind of a

198
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 1: prize pony right now? I don't know if Perry has

199
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: a lot of shows on there BT. Plus, I did

200
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: watch the Monique movie on there. Okay, what was it called?

201
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: The reading? Was that what it was called? Yeah? The reading?

202
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: I heard it was amazing that one. It was it

203
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: was good. I love a horror movie. Plus, I do

204
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: have it. Yes, did you just add as behind the

205
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 1: scenes you are such a hater. I do want to

206
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: say all my streaming services at home has a different

207
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: name on it because first a lot of them are mine. Okay,

208
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 1: but you lightweight live in my house. I was water relax. I'mous.

209
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 1: What could be a change we could see two b

210
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 1: ET if someone like a Tyler Perry or did he

211
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: want to buy it? Like, what are the changes that

212
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: we want to see to a b ET? Yeah, because

213
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 1: look like is we're vote making money right now too?

214
00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: That's a good question, That's a really good question. I don't.

215
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 1: And I also feel like whatever networks do, they also

216
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: have to do a lot online and streaming also in

217
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: order to compete, because you can't just be no b

218
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 1: ET plus is the future of BT? Yeah, exactly, you're

00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: my new sort of like focus right now. And some

235
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: people what pop Viewers is because I think it's an

236
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: amazing concept. Yes, so it's a place for you guys

237
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: can go to discover new shows, new movies, and more importantly,

238
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: react to what you're watching. And our goal right now

239
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 1: is to kind of really bridge the audience sentiment with

240
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 1: the studios, so studios understand what people are watching, not

241
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: just how many millions of folks people are watching shows,

242
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: but why people are watching shows in various films, and

243
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: we can kind of incorporate the viewers into the content

244
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: that they see in the future. You know, it's interesting

245
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: because depending on whose Because sometimes you see stuff that

246
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:32,000
Speaker 1: gets great reviews and you're like, who, I don't. And

247
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: then you see something that is a classic for us yea,

248
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,920
Speaker 1: and it doesn't get good reviews, and you're like, who

249
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: is reviewing these movies? So it kind of gives us

250
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: the power to say, I like this. I was watching

251
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: The Best Man final chapters and so remember he put

252
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: they had adapted his um and this is my about

253
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: last night because I watched the whole thing at once, right,

254
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: and anyway, you watched the whole series. It was good.

255
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 1: And remember he had turned the book into a movie

256
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: and his reviews were like terrible, right, yeah, right, But

257
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: she was like, oh, it's amazing. You said what people

258
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 1: were like when they were in the theater watching it.

259
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: And so many times I feel like it could be

260
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 1: something that doesn't get great reviews, but it's good. Who

261
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: is reviewing it? Sounds like it sounds like what you have.

262
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: It's kind of helps with the disconnect. Yeah, I feel

263
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 1: like so many of our content, our shows, in our

264
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: movies for black people, buy Black people, buy Latin um.

265
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: You know, Americans, our content, oftentimes critics don't know how

266
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 1: to really access so you will see black content. Um,

267
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: they have low scores on Rotten Tomatoes or low score

268
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: from critics aggregates, but at the end of the day,

269
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: we are still watching this. This is a class. You know.

270
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,079
Speaker 1: I was watching Lock Up to get ready for today.

271
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:47,400
Speaker 1: I know y'all watched that so last night after I finished, Yes, yes, yes,

272
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:52,719
Speaker 1: it is so good and major. You know, writers for

273
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: big colocations writing those kind of shows, but a lot

274
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 1: of us are watching those shows. So for me, Pop

275
00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: Yours is a way for us to bring diverse commune

276
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 1: it needs together and show the power the power of

277
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: us coming together and watching I love the research that

278
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: you did. Was watching love after that was my job?

279
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: What's the monique? I want a guest host on angela

Speaker 1: Is show to watch? Ye you must Yep, that was

281
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:15,599
Speaker 1: my job last night, but I'm gonna keep it. A A

282
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: lot of what I watch is also because if I

283
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: see something that's trending, yes, or that everybody's posting and

284
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: talking about, I'm like, let me get into this, because

285
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: I also want to make sure I'm up on what

286
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 1: everybody else is watching so that I feel like I

287
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: can talk about it. Listen, how many of the Oscar nominees.

288
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 1: Have you watched not that many rights. I was trying

289
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 1: to watch one last night. What really is the power

290
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 1: right now, you guys, is word of mouth. As I'm

291
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: talking to the studios, I'm explaining to them like that

292
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 1: word of mouth co signed from a friend, from something

293
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: that you know and trust, is so much more powerful

294
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: than critics coming together and saying Tar or All's Quiet

295
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: on the Western Front or The Banches of Anah Sharon

296
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: are the top films of the year. It's really about

297
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: what people are watching in meeting folks where they are,

298
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: and that's what we do at pop Viewers, right all right,

299
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: well and shout out to act your age. On Bounce TV,

300
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 1: they that was the most washed half hour series debut

301
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: they ever have with over a two point one four

302
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: million viewers. It's really funny. Yeah, it's great, but it

303
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: shows the power of the black and brown consumer. We

304
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: are powerful. Now. One thing I wanted to talk about

305
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 1: because you discussed your son earlier, is Tyler Perry, and

306
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: he was on Michelle Obama's The Light podcast and he

307
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 1: talked about disciplining his eight year old son. He was

308
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 1: discussing how the nanny was telling him to brush his teeth.

309
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:25,480
Speaker 1: He didn't want to brush his teeth, and he kind

310
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: of was going in on the nanny and I got

311
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: down eye to eye and I was talking to him

312
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: and I said, listen to me, you are not going

313
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: to be this way. We love you, we are your parents.

314
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 1: You will not behave this way. We talked to you

315
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: better than this. And I'm talking to him and I'm

316
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: starting to get emotional, and he said, I'm sorry, Papa,

317
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. He brush his teeth, did all those things.

318
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 1: But I went out on the balcony. I was in

319
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: tears because I realized that nobody had ever got down

320
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 1: and talked to me eye to eye. So to have

321
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: a moment that I had a chance to have a

322
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: conversation with a child who is my spitting image. I

323
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: was not only correcting and leading him the right way,

324
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: but helping my own little boy inside of me. Healed yes,

325
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: because he talked about getting beat all the time growing up.

326
00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: And I know this was something that struck a chord

327
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 1: with you, Chris, in particular, you have an eleven year

328
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: old son, and we're going to talk about that. Eight

329
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: hundred two nine two fifty one fifty disciplining your child,

330
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: how you were discipline growing up, and how that affects

331
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:19,320
Speaker 1: how you parents. I want to see what you guys

332
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: think as well. Call us up eight hundred two nine

333
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: two fifty one fifty going way with Angela Yee. Yes,

334
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: it's way up with Angela Yee. And I'm here with

335
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 1: my girl Jasmine from the Jasmine Brand, and Chris Witherspoon's

336
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 1: CEO of pop Viewers, makes sure y'all download that app.

337
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: And we're talking about Tyler Perry and disciplining his eight

338
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 1: year old son with compassion. Now I know for you, Chris,

339
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,360
Speaker 1: this really struck a chord. You have an eleven year

340
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 1: old yes, yes, yeah, listening to this story, I thought

341
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: it was so profound that he didn't say that he

342
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: spanked his child. You know, my son is eleven. We

343
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 1: have not spanked him yet. His mother, who's my good

344
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 1: best friend, we went half of the baby. We said

345
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,440
Speaker 1: we were not going to spank our son. And now

346
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: I was spanked. I was spanked, like for any old

347
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: reason and like on a regular basis. But I think

348
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 1: one of the things that I kind of realized is

349
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 1: like when you spank a child, sometimes you take away

350
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: the abilities to have a conversation around what will he happened?

351
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: I understand what they were feeling. And I think what

352
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: Tyler Perry did as an example of what we see

353
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: so many other parents from the other side of the

354
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: tracks due, which is like understand why their child did

355
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:23,680
Speaker 1: what they did, have a conversation, have a conversation, you know.

356
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: And I feel like I didn't get a chance to

357
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: do that. And in therapy right now, I do a

358
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: lot of therapy. It's not so much me being in

359
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 1: trauma over the spankings. It's more about like learning how

360
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 1: to use my voice and express what I'm feeling, and

361
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 1: how there wasn't always space to do that in my

362
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: home as a child, right, Yeah, because I got spanked

363
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: a lot as a child, and the time, yeah, I'd

364
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: be like who left the cap up to toothpaste? And

365
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: it was me and my brother, So yeah, it was

366
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 1: if he got a spanking, I did, and if I did,

367
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,640
Speaker 1: he did, so I already kneed. Yeah, if he got

368
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: in trouble, I was in trouble my dad, because it

369
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: used to be like when he was getting spank I

370
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 1: would laugh behind my dad's back. But then I was like, oh,

371
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: I'm next. My brother spanked all the time, like together

372
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 1: two years apart. Oh wow, yeah, what about you spanked

373
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: a little bit, not a lot. I was kind of

374
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: scared of my mom, Like she could like yell at

375
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: me or look at me, and it kind of scare me.

376
00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: I got a few, like more so when I was little,

377
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: little like you know, I'll whip up till five and

378
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 1: then it kind of stopped, and she would just kind

379
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: of you know now as it popped. Because you do

380
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 1: have a daughter, yeah, not too yet, right, Rain is

381
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: almost too I um, I might later on pop her

382
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 1: like I might pop her, but I'm gonna try to

383
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: talk to her because right now, I grab her face

384
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 1: and be like, hey, no biting, because she she'll get

385
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,760
Speaker 1: next to Yeah, she gets upset with your chuld bite

386
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: her grandmother and I'd be like, no, we don't you

387
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 1: need to hit their little hand. You be like pound pound. Yeah,

388
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 1: I grab her, I grab her face and I look

389
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: her in her eye and I'm like, we don't, we

390
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: don't do that. And then she won't look at me

391
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,400
Speaker 1: in my eyes, so I know she knows what the

392
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: gonna laugh at you. Well then, but the words used

393
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: to be when I get spanked in front of my friends.

394
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: Can you imagine? I can't believe that happened to you,

395
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 1: because that would be so embarrassing, and then your friends

396
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 1: be feeling so bad for you, like they don't want

397
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: to look at you. So, Angela, you got spanked in

398
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: front of your friends. Yes, And this is when I

399
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 1: started going to private school, so you know, the white kids,

400
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 1: they were not getting a spanking, right, And so I

401
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: remember I got spanked in front of my friend and

402
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: she was horrified, horrid. What age were you when the

403
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: spanking stopped? Um? I was probably like about maybe I

404
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: was like fifteen. That's kind of old. No. I think

405
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 1: they stopped for me around fifth grade, fifth grade and

406
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 1: sixth grade. You're about to be driving. Were you're doing

407
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: at fifteen? To get you remember? Nothing? I was on

408
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: the phone too long, like get off the phone, you know,

409
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But yeah, okay, all right, Well

410
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: let's see what you guys have to say about these

411
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: spankings that Tyler Perry was talking about. He's disciplining his

412
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: eight year old son. He does not spank his son.

413
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,920
Speaker 1: He talks to him and has him explain things with compassion,

414
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: something he wish he would have had the space to

415
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,359
Speaker 1: do when he was growing up and he was getting

416
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: beatings all the time. Let's see who was on the line, Kwane.

417
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: What's your thoughts on disciplining your your kids or being

418
00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 1: discipline growing up? Oh my god. So when I was

419
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: growing up, my mom used to whoop me for like everything,

420
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,520
Speaker 1: like if I would fold my dress RN. That is like,

421
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 1: nobody's gonna teach you common sense. You gotta have it.

422
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: You know, if I said a curse word, I would

423
00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: have to write it a hundred times. Knew what it meant,

424
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,399
Speaker 1: was the language to dialect it came from. But she

425
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:27,400
Speaker 1: whooped me for like every thing. Now I'm raising my daughter.

426
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 1: I barely spank her, probably once a year. But what

427
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: I noticed the difference is I have character, I have strength.

428
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: I had no common sense. My daughter lacked of no

429
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: serious maybe because I'm not thinking her, but I do. Also,

430
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,439
Speaker 1: I didn't have an opinion. So now I allow my

431
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: daughter to speak. You know how you're feeling. Do you

432
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,920
Speaker 1: agree with why I'm yelling at you? You know things

433
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,320
Speaker 1: of that sport. Back in the day, you didn't have

434
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: a choya. You did what their parents said. And this

435
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 1: is not very long ago. Because I'm funny, san, but

436
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: my daughters twell. So my mom raised me young, but

437
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 1: she had that old fool life sharp and you think

438
00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: the beatings helped you, She's saying, yeah, absolutely absolutely, So

439
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,880
Speaker 1: why have you decided to not beat your daughter? Beat

440
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 1: it strong? Because my mom did the mold okay, like

441
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 1: it was like kind of traumatic and waves. But the

442
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 1: qualities that I have my daughter like, okay, all right,

443
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,320
Speaker 1: that's interesting. All right, Well, thank you Kuanne for sharing.

448

Speaker 1: get the tea. Yes, it is way up at Angela Yee.

494
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: I'm here, Jasmine Brand is here, Good morning, Chris. Witherspoon

495
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: is here, Chris. What's your Instagram for people to find

496
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: you too? It's at Witherspoon CE. So my last name

497
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: w I T H E R S p O N

498
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,879
Speaker 1: and then my first initial CE okay, so you can

499
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 1: follow him and pop viewers. Yes, all right, now flow

500
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: right out. As we all know, won this crazy lawsuit

501
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: after suing energy during company Celsius. He got eighty two

502
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 1: point six million dollars and now he's launching his own

503
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: energy drink is called jet Set one. He said, Celsie

504
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: is great, but at the same time, you want to

505
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,160
Speaker 1: take something and make it even greater. So not only

506
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 1: did he win this money, but now he's also going

507
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,119
Speaker 1: to be coming out and doing a whole brand against Celsius,

508
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: and that is more than enough money that you need

509
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: to get a company off the ground. Like he could

510
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: take eight million with his brand and his notoriety, that

511
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: that eight million and get that that seed funding to

512
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 1: grow his company. And we see how much money people

513
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: can make off of beverage companies, you know. So he's

514
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: planning to launch this in the first quarter of twenty

515
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,440
Speaker 1: twenty four, he said, coming from the success of Celsius

516
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,080
Speaker 1: when they had no name and the marketing was very little,

517
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: I took that product and I took it worldwide. This

518
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,160
Speaker 1: is a thing that we want to do with jet

519
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 1: Set one. And he was sucking an insider exclusively. Okay,

520
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: I want to see how I tast something. You want

521
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: to try it. They're saying it's healthy and it tastes

522
00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: better than every energy drink on the market, and so

523
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,439
Speaker 1: on and so full natural ingredients for the gem. Look

524
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 1: at us already helping at Florida's also, by the way,

525
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: headlining the eighteenth annual AIDS Walk and Music Festival. So

526
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 1: they announced that he would partner with the organization and

527
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,720
Speaker 1: to raise over two million dollars for HIV AID services.

528
00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 1: I love that he's given back. I mean that's a walk.

529
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 1: So I say, bring your jet set to the walk. Yeah,

530
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 1: not till twenty twenty four. Since we're talking business, Shack

531
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 1: is celebrating the opening of his restaurant and he, by

532
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: the way, is he's making his way around Kansas City.

533
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,439
Speaker 1: I saw some video footage of him. You know, he

534
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 1: DJs as Diesel Yes in the club and when I

535
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 1: tell you, it was Bram packed in that club. I've

536
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 1: actually seen him DJ before. He's good. It was in them.

537
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: He plays a lot of fist pumping music. I guess

538
00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 1: you played for whoever the audience. But I was in

539
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: the Bahamas at the Bahamar, and he happened to be

540
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: djaying there and so yeah, it was cool. So he

541
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: has a new restaurant, Big Chicken, and they had a

542
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 1: ribbon cutting Saturday afternoon ceremony at the new Kansas City

543
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: International Airport Terminal and Concourse B. So congratulations to him.

544
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: He's been doing this restaurant thing for a minute. Remember

545
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 1: we went to his restaurant in Lave. Yeah, my dad

546
00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 1: was in Kansaity, So my dad has to check that

547
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: out right. And at the airport, you say, yeah, that's

548
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: why getting hungry at the airport. And they don't really

549
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 1: have good food there at the airport. They don't have

550
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,360
Speaker 1: good food at Cana Airport either. And in Atlanta, Ludacris

551
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: has his restaurant in the airport Chicken and Beer. Yep,

552
00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: okay restaurants, yes, but I think it's kind of because

553
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 1: you still have to pay a lot to be in

554
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: the airport, so you got to make sure people come.

555
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,200
Speaker 1: That's true. But there's always people in the airport. So

556
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be nice if we you have some of

557
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,159
Speaker 1: that in a Delta sky lounge, like a little a

558
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,360
Speaker 1: little little little crisp chicken of beer pop up there,

559
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 1: a little shack up, you know, Okay, I feel like

560
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: it can happen, right, all right. Shack is also now

561
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 1: that's the good news. On that news, it says that

562
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 1: he's also been evading getting served papers for an FTX

563
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 1: related lawsuit for four weeks according to attorneys, and having

564
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: a hard time serving him. Well, he's in Kansas City,

565
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: but apparently they said he's been just evading them. There's

566
00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: a lot of celebrities that are in this lawsuit, by

567
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: the way, Tom Brady stuff, Cyrie, Larry David, among others.

568
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: And that is all for being exposing people to misrepresentations

569
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,400
Speaker 1: and omissions and things like that. So you know, it's

570
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 1: like a cryptocurrency, yeah, platform, okay, yeah, So sometimes you

571
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 1: agree and get the check and you don't really know

572
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: what you're getting into over there ducking him. Yeah, yet

573
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: it served all right? And um, little ouzi Vert is

574
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: addressing controversy. Some people are saying he has satanic lyrics

575
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 1: on his new track and so here is that one line,

576
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: I make a City Girl Believe in Satan. And so

577
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 1: when TMZ caught up with him, here's what he had

578
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: to say, Hey, what do you mean by that lyric?

579
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: Man not actually Satan, but just basically I make a

580
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: girl do whatever I say something. What did? She really

581
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,920
Speaker 1: didn't think too much of it. She was there when

582
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: she heard me make the song. She know what she knows,

583
00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 1: like what I really did. So don't really about sight. No,

584
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: do you believe in stan? Um? No? He said, you

585
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 1: believe in Satan. It's a crazy thing to yell out

586
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,080
Speaker 1: to somebody. But what he's saying is it's so extreme, right,

587
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: I mean that's how I took it that, Like I

588
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: can make you believe in something. Yeah, so extreme. He

589
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 1: came from a religious background too, but he said he

590
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: just likes to say whatever he wants to say. He's

591
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 1: really not trying to offend anyone. So all right, Well

592
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 1: that you have it and that is your yet And

593
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,120

Speaker 1: These are stories that are not necessarily headline stories. They're

595
00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: flying under the radar, but we feel like they're important.

Speaker 1: out of a reusable water bottle, which sounds like a

608
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: great idea, right, It's good for the environment, the ve Yeah.

609
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: A new study has delivered a very disturbing finding, though,

610
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: and that is that these water bottles are filthy if

611
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: you don't clean them regularly. All right, So, a new

612
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 1: recent study from US based water filter guru dot com

613
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: found that reusable bottles can have forty thousand times more

614
00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: bacteria than the average toilet seat. Oh my gosh, it's

615
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: like a portable Petrie dish. So they swab them and

616
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 1: they found two types of bacteria present, and it can

617
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: cause infections, and these are increasingly resistant to antibiotics. Okay,

618
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 1: So they compare the cleanliness of the bottles to household

619
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: objects and it turns out that this has more bacteria

620
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: fourteen times more than a pet drinking bowl. Oh my goodness,

621
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: that's disgusted. That's awful. Yeah, but I love this news

622
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: because I'm the kind of person that i'm. People always

623
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: go on me for wasting water bottles because I like

624
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,800
Speaker 1: to have the water bottle, open it and like have

625
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 1: that fresh that fresh water as opposed to the water

626
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,360
Speaker 1: from that little thing. Um, So this actually helps my cause,

627
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean, and the main thing is clean it. Yeah, often,

628
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 1: but I'm trying to find how clean you gotta get

629
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: washing it at least once a day with hot soapy water,

630
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 1: and sanitizing it at least once a week. This is

631
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,720
Speaker 1: what you're supposed to do. Yeah, that's what you're supposed

632
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: to do. Now, they do say squeeze top bottles are

633
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 1: the cleanest of the three styles tested because a tenth

634
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 1: has a tenth of the amount of bacteria as the

635
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: ones that screw off or the ones with the straw

636
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 1: fitted lids. I wonder, I wonder how often our ep

637
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:11,000
Speaker 1: dan cleans his I'm looking at him. I'm gonna guess

638
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 1: not that often. Okay, he mustn't speak so bad, he

639
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: mustn't speak, But we don't want him on our mics

640
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of back come on what we

641
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 1: know in his mouth right now? Do you want to

642
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: say something how the it's a screwable one. It's the

643
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 1: one with the top comes clean the top like inside,

644
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 1: But the bottle itself, I only put water in it,

645
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: So do you really need to clean the ba But

646
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 1: the top where I drink from, that's what gets cleaned.

647
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: Now you have to clean the whole thing times more

648
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 1: than a pet's drinking ball, because imagine this, are you

649
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: putting your mouth on there. There's a little bit of

650
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: backwash going in there, and that's the same bacteria that

651
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: would have been on the top to Now all you're

652
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: doing is I'll replace the water, though you should definitely

653
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 1: repay you also to clean the inside. Dan, It isn't

654
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: that hard. If you're going to clean the top, why

655
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: not clean because they have those breath they brush it

656
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 1: just like how you clean up a baby, but save

657
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 1: your life, they have brushes for them. Okay, go ahead,

658
00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: somebody get a swat. Does anyone drink out of about

659
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: water fountain anymore? No? You know, in the gym once

660
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: and once in a blue moon, I will take my

661
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 1: bottle and put the bottle in the water. But even

662
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: then I'm a little bit nervous about it. I don't

663
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,840
Speaker 1: even like when people do that. Stop it things. I

664
00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: don't know why I don't like that, stop it immediately.

665
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: I'm a germaphobe, though I am too. This this study

666
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: is changing, Chris. It doesn't sound like your germaho rely

667
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: not enough. I just don't want to black out, you

668
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 1: know what I mean. If I can't get to the

669
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: bottle of water fast enough, I gotta get because I

670
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 1: was wondering why do people wash their hands after they

671
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 1: go to the bathroom and not also before? I do

672
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 1: it both times. Yeah, you gotta do it both times,

673
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: especially at the gym. Well, I only wash mine after.

674
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm gonna be honest. I don't wash my

675
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 1: hands before. Most people don't. Yeah, I do it after,

676
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: but not before, especially guys. You got to touch it right, No,

677
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: you you really want to make sure that you scrub it.

678
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: You washed before you got to My grandfather told me

679
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: that when I was a little boy. Yeah, absolutely, last,

680
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: before and after. Okay, well that is your under the radar.

681
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: Now when we come back, we do have the Way

682
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: Up mix at the top of the hour, Plus we

683
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: have a special guest joining us. Today's Stratus more Folk,

684
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 1: and he has a book called out called Be a Disruptor.

685
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 1: If you've heard of Brooklyn Chop House, it's an amazing restaurant.

686
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 1: There's two of them here that people go to all

687
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: the time. But he also started Philips back in the

00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: day and a very popular restaurant. But he's got a

689
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 1: lot of drama with that. He's going to talk about

690
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 1: all of that on Way Up with Angela Yee. It

Speaker 1: Chris Witherspoon is here, happy Chris say line. All right,

696
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: So it's time for your YE team. Now let's discuss

697
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,920
Speaker 1: a Diplow. Diplow was recently on a podcast Help Me

698
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 1: with her Name Emily Vadajikowski Is that's perfect, okay? Emily

699
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: Radzikowski's podcast, and he was talking about a situation he

700
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: had where he's gotten oral sex from a man before.

701
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 1: Here's what he had to say, Sure, before you're sure

702
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: that's happened? Yeah, and you just don't remember. I mean, like,

703
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a gay unless you're like

704
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,279
Speaker 1: make eye contact while there's a book. That's such a

705
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 1: straight guy thing to say. But I mean, it's not

706
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 1: like gay. I don't know, it's you tell me all right.

707
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,439
Speaker 1: So so I don't know if it's a gay unless

708
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: if it's if you don't make eye contat unless you

709
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 1: make eye contact. So does that mean it never happened.

710
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: I've never heard this before, the whole eye contacting this

711
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 1: is this is this is very new to me in

712
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 1: my community. Um, I don't think it makes him gay.

713
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: I think it makes him something like there's all these

714
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 1: new terms now. I think it makes a small on

715
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: lines of fluid, made him fluid. There we go. I

716
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: think even by maybe, But that's very open minded him

717
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 1: to come on a podcast and say all that. It's

718
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 1: hard because like people don't want to label themselves, don't

719
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,920
Speaker 1: They don't anymore. Sometimes you try something and then if

720
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,440
Speaker 1: you try it one time, but it sounds like it

721
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 1: probably happened more than one time. And how far did

722
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: they go? That's the other part. I'm curious, Well, we

723
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,920
Speaker 1: know one thing didn't happen. It was no eye contact, right,

724
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 1: that's true. Yeah, And so I feel like eye contact

725
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,319
Speaker 1: is a connection, so maybe he say there was no connection. Yeah,

726
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,520
Speaker 1: or also it means he can pretend like it didn't happen,

727
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: like he doesn't even really know it was a man

728
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 1: down there because he wasn't physically seeing the guy. Yeah,

729
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 1: because he also said that he's sure he has but

730
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: he's not, but he doesn't remember much. Yeah, so he's

731
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 1: maybe a little gay or a little by Can you

732
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: be a little gay? Yeah? I think so that's a

733
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 1: good question. Actually, I think a little by little you

734
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 1: get you way gay all the way, game the way, game,

735
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:52,200
Speaker 1: all the way up, all the way. But Angela, all right,

736
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: but that's fine, So maybe a little bit. So I'm

737
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: probably him for saying that, though I'm really probably saying

738
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: that's a very hard thing to say, you know, with

739
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 1: the policy of a white man. So I feel like

740
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: for a black man it probably even harder to say.

741
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,399
Speaker 1: If you know a black man is he's also very

742
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 1: in this space of like Caribbean, like a lot of

743
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,120
Speaker 1: his music Major Laser. Yeah, you know, but I think

744
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,880
Speaker 1: you're right. I think that being able to experiment with

745
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,239
Speaker 1: your sexuality it is a privilege, and white people are

746
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: more privileged to feel that they can kind of color

747
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 1: outside the line sometimes women and man, you see so

748
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:29,239
Speaker 1: many white girls and fraternities like sororities, you know, and

749
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 1: women have their freedom to experiment a lot more than

750
00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: men do. We do. That's the point you were making.

751
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 1: You were saying that when women do it, we don't.

752
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: Really it's not so much of a big deal. It's

753
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 1: kind of like it was college. Yea. All right. Now,

754
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: let's talk about the nest. Two times he was on

755
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,400
Speaker 1: Lift Service and that episode is actually out today, and

756
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,919
Speaker 1: one of the things that he discussed is his relationship.

757
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:52,760
Speaker 1: Now he actually has three girlfriends, maybe two, but three. Okay,

00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 1: she would stand up. Yeah. And then another thing he

770
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,320
Speaker 1: talked about. So if you guys remember, this went viral

771
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: and people were actually going in on him because he

772
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,680

00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: had to say about that. I didn't say that he

778
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: took a charge for me. And when d ten eleven

779
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,760
Speaker 1: years from me, I see that he did teen years.

783
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:19,960

811
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: Angela Ye is the Oprah Radio. She needs to receive

812
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:50,280
Speaker 1: Angela Winfrey. There we go. I like that Winfrey of radio.

813
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,839
Speaker 1: But it is Women's History Month and we do want

00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 1: good friends to Joyanne read Yes, I'm celebrating Joy today.

816
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: Like Joyanne Reid is the Oprah of politics and my opinion,

817
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 1: and she is just someone y'all. That is, she's a trailblazer,

818
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 1: the first black woman to have her own primetime cable

819
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: news show Number one to read out say that, but

820
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: also as a friend and as a former boss of

821
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 1: mine at the Careo where I worked for many years

822
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: entertainment editor over there, she is the person that got

823
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 1: me on camera. No One. Initially, I think will they

824
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 1: saw me in that light? Until Joy said, Okay, I'm

825
00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: your managing editor. I want you to begin doing entertainment

826
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: segments for the Today's Show for MSNBC, and I'm gonna

827
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: fight for you to do so. So She's not just talent,

828
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: She's not just a star warsh, She's someone who's a

829
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,239
Speaker 1: star maker and I slew her today for that. She's

830
00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: also from New York. Yeah, she went to Harvard. Come

831
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: on Harvard, and and she is a sad because her

832
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: birthday is December eighth. Okay, yeah. It's also an author

833
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 1: see so many things. Yeah, she had she had a

834
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: career in radio before she came to MSNBC, so she

835
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 1: knows all of this world too. Yeah. What I love

836
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 1: about Joyanne Read is she just keeps it funky all

837
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 1: the time, says what she thinks. Because I've seen her

838
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 1: getting attacked, yes, you know, for her opinion or saying something,

839
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,919
Speaker 1: and people get mad, and that's not an easy space

840
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: to be in. Politics is worse than I feel like anything.

841
00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 1: They be savage. The things that she gets on Twitter

842
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 1: and social media in general from people on the right,

843
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: sometimes I'm like, oh, we're security, Yeah exactly. Not for nothing.

844
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: She wrote a book in twenty nineteen, The Man Who

845
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 1: Sold America Trump in The Unraveling American Story, No Wonder,

846
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 1: No Wonder, she goes back. She's about politics all right,

847
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: and the person that I wanted to celebrate today is

848
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: Phyllis Johnson. Now y'all know, I have a coffee company.

849
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: It's called Coffee Uplifts People. And Phillis Johnson has been

850
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,160
Speaker 1: an invaluable asset to US seas an entrepreneur and author

851
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:39,280
Speaker 1: and activist. But she also has her own importing company

852
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 1: called Beat Imports that she founded back in nineteen ninety nine.

853
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,320
Speaker 1: So she's been working here in this space for a

854
00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,080
Speaker 1: long time. And in twenty twenty she founded the Coffee

855
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 1: Coalition for Racial Equity. And there's a lot of racial

856
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 1: injustice and unrest going on around us, but in the

857
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: coffee business, it's really tough. If you think about where

858
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: coffee beans come from, it's all black and brown places.

859
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 1: It's a large percentage of women men who are farmers.

860
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:06,400
Speaker 1: But we're talking about ownership, we're talking about opportunity finances.

861
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: A lot of times people aren't getting paid properly. That's

862
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:11,320
Speaker 1: why when you see fair trade on coffee, that's to

863
00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,160
Speaker 1: make sure that people aren't getting pennies on the dollar

864
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,080
Speaker 1: who are working in these farms and working behind the scenes.

865
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: And so with her company be the Imports. Again, I

866
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,879
Speaker 1: told you she's had this since nineteen ninety nine. It's

867
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 1: been a pathway for new discoveries and enlightenment, she says,

868
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 1: not just for herself and her family, but for others.

869
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,760
Speaker 1: It's the first company often to engage with women coffee

870
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:34,080
Speaker 1: entrepreneurs and producers in various countries, or to inspire entrepreneurs

871
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: in our own country. So she said, sometimes the best

872
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:38,880
Speaker 1: thing that one can be, it's a good representation or

873
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 1: inspiration for others. As a black woman and the Green

874
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: coffee trade, I stood out and been noticed by others

875
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: who also stood out in their own way. Come on,

876
00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 1: feels I love. It's a rural I can't say rural, rural,

877
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: rural Arkansas. Struggling someone and I was going to college.

878
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: If you don't see the example, be the example exactly

879
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 1: like that is what Phillis is doing. She is being

880
00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 1: then example, and she's somebody I actually personally have gone to.

881
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,480
Speaker 1: Oh really yeah, just for that, also for her knowledge.

882
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:13,239
Speaker 1: We've been working with her now as an importer. So

883
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,319
Speaker 1: we've actually wanted to make sure with Coffee uplifts people

884
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: we have a black woman who's a roaster, and then

885
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,320
Speaker 1: we have Phillis who's our importer. I wouldn't watch a

886
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 1: documentary about her, like I feel like watching the life

887
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,279
Speaker 1: of the beans and like also the women you talked about,

888
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:28,560
Speaker 1: who are you know oftentimes to pharm owners, would I

889
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: would netflix and chill the coffee out of that the

890
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,879
Speaker 1: core fee? Yeah, yeah, I'm reading about her now. She's dope. Yeah,

891
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 1: because a lot of times we talk about equity, we

892
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 1: talk about inclusion, and so she is the example because

893
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 1: you know how the coffee industry can be even here.

894
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: I feel like in the United States they really market

895
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 1: to middle age white men yep. And so for somebody

896
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,160
Speaker 1: like Phyllis Johnson to try to level out the playing

897
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: field and also make sure that things are more equitable

898
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 1: and have more access, I think that's important. So we're

899
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: all trying to take these tangible steps to help improve

900
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,399
Speaker 1: racial equality. When it comes to coffee, it's a huge

901
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,479
Speaker 1: Where can you find the fair trade thing you mentioned?

902
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,680
Speaker 1: When you look at coffee, you can see if there's

903
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 1: a fair trade stamp on there. I learned about that

904
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: with you. All right, Well that is our women's history. Man.

905
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,800
Speaker 1: Shout out to Phyllis Johnson and be the imports. And

906
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 1: when we come back, we have another entrepreneur Stratus more Fogan.

907
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,839
Speaker 1: You guys are gonna love history. He is definitely MOB

908
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,680

Speaker 1: and your son is eleven, yes, And then you said

926

Speaker 1: that you and your friend had an agreement, and that's

927
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:28,359
Speaker 1: how everything happened. She listened to talk to me about

928
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 1: this agreement, because you know, we're always like, okay, so

929
00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,800
Speaker 1: if I don't have a kid and you don't have okay,

930
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: So my best friend, my best friend. This is a

931
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,120
Speaker 1: great New York story. I was. I was working at

932
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,839
Speaker 1: this hotel Selho Grand about fifteen years ago after being

933
00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 1: an NBC page. So I was kind of like trying

934
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: to find myself, figure out what's next for Chrismaerspoon. And

935
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 1: my friend was my supervisor at the hotel. Okay, she's

936
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 1: from the DR and I never met anybody from the DR,

937
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:51,440
Speaker 1: from a small town in Ohio, and jokingly, within knowing

938
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,520
Speaker 1: her from one week, she said, you know, um, I

939
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:56,320
Speaker 1: always thought I thought about having a kid, but I

940
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 1: never knew how I was going to do it. And

941
00:45:58,120 --> 00:45:59,839
Speaker 1: I feel like you'd be an amazing father, which could

942
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:01,839
Speaker 1: be down they have to kill me. And she WASNA

943
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,520
Speaker 1: had a dream about me, okay, And I was like,

944
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:07,439
Speaker 1: it was overnight, you know, overnight, three in the morning,

945
00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: working overnight, you get delirious. And I was like, sure,

946
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 1: why not? And she kept talking about it. He became

947
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 1: roommates and we are both a part of the LGBTQ

948
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 1: plus community. Um so yeah, we just went half on

949
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,359
Speaker 1: a baby and we we raised the child together as

950
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 1: roommates for a year. Then we have our own places

951
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:25,560
Speaker 1: and we both have our own She has a girlfriend.

952
00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 1: I have a boyfriend, right neon. Right when you and

953
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,399
Speaker 1: I first met, I remember you telling in this Chris,

954
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,720
Speaker 1: and I've never heard of a I don't know anyone

955
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 1: that has had this same, similar kind of setup. So

956
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 1: I was it was funny MTV reached out to us

957
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:40,600
Speaker 1: when she was pregnant. Someone that I knew heard our story, uh,

958
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:42,759
Speaker 1: and reached out to me. Um, and we didn't do

959
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:45,400
Speaker 1: a story. I was like, or documentary. I think it's

960
00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,319
Speaker 1: my son's story to tell the whole nuances of how

961
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 1: we created him and things. Um just he's a memeon

962
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 1: if you go to embracing Black culture right now. They

963
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 1: posted him last week as a picture I took of

964
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: him at the beach. And if some one knows how

965
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: to monetize this, y'all, please dm me at weatherspoons scenes

966
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:05,839
Speaker 1: using means of his son. He not getting no money

967
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,439
Speaker 1: from it. I'm gonna put him one coffee for the people.

968
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:11,320
Speaker 1: I think it should be like on a can of coffee,

969
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,160
Speaker 1: something good. But I love that. So she had a dream.

970
00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:15,840
Speaker 1: She had a dream. She had a dream, and she

971
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:18,359
Speaker 1: was you know, as as as you know, when you're

972
00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 1: someone from certain communities and you can't afford to go

973
00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,920
Speaker 1: to the you know whatever the different places are for

974
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:27,839
Speaker 1: for surrogacy or in mutual fertilization, you have to get creative, right,

975
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,800
Speaker 1: and then it's good that you're still in the child's

976
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:33,319
Speaker 1: life too. Oh my god, my son was like my son,

Speaker 1: he knows our stories and he's so proud of us.

979
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:40,360
Speaker 1: And I loved it. We could put him out in

980
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 1: the world and he gets to be kind of like,

981
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,200

1004
00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:54,839
Speaker 1: tell you guys. He has this book out. It's called

1005
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 1: Be a Disruptor and it's streetwise lessons for entrepreneurs from

1006
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 1: the mob to the man and dates. But we all

1007
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:05,480
Speaker 1: know Stratus, I think in general despot being one of

1008
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 1: the owners of Brooklyn chop House. But what people may

1009
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 1: not have known is that he also was one of

1010
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 1: the owners of Philip's. Okay, so we got to get

1011
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 1: into some of these lessons from this book because you've

1012
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,440
Speaker 1: been in the restaurant business since you were sixty years old. Now,

1013
00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,319
Speaker 1: one of the things that you learned from an early

1014
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:26,239
Speaker 1: age is discretion. Discretion is really important when it comes

1015
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 1: to owning a restaurant and being in that business. So

1016
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 1: you learned that in an early age. Explain that because

1017
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,560
Speaker 1: this is actually a mob story that you guys would

1018
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 1: love to hear. Yeah. So my dad had the Chelsea

1019
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,440
Speaker 1: Chop House. One of them was in Howard Beach and

1020
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: about six seven years old, I was at Buzzport and

1021
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: the first lesson of discretion I had was what there

1022
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: was a little diminutive guy used to come in with

1023
00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 1: a lot of big guys around him, and they used

1024
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:49,239
Speaker 1: to go very discreet. My father would like, drop what

1025
00:49:49,320 --> 00:49:51,239
Speaker 1: he was doing, you know. I was like, Wow, who

1026
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:53,880
Speaker 1: is this guy that my father looks at with such reverence,

1027
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:55,759
Speaker 1: you know? And then he would go sit him down.

1028
00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 1: Then I hear him tell the manager skid us to

1029
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 1: Cambi in his true and it was Carlo Gambino, you know,

1030
00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:04,160
Speaker 1: the boss of the Gambino family. And you know, so

1031
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:06,479
Speaker 1: here's a little short bus boy who's really not shy.

1032
00:50:07,040 --> 00:50:09,960
Speaker 1: You know, I'm walking up to his table, and you know,

1033
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 1: I start pouring water and I say hi, mister Gambino,

1034
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:15,480
Speaker 1: and no one says yeah, you could hear a pin drop,

1035
00:50:15,960 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 1: and you know, I felt so weird, like what did

1036
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:19,560
Speaker 1: I do wrong with just being nice? That's what my

1037
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:23,399
Speaker 1: because my father actually calls him sir. So after after

1038
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 1: he puts me down on his knee and he talks

1039
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: to he goes, hey, how school like like like a grandfather,

1040
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 1: and he slips a twenty dollar bill in my in

1041
00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:32,239
Speaker 1: my pocket. He just says, next time high is enough.

1042
00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:34,800
Speaker 1: And I'm like, all right, all right, I have no

1043
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:36,760
Speaker 1: idea what I did, but I'll keep taking the twenties

1044
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,799
Speaker 1: and I'll just say hi and then um. So as

1045
00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 1: I can see my father peeking around the table, going,

1046
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,640
Speaker 1: oh my god, Stratus is sitting with the gangsters, you know,

1047
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 1: and I've been there for like ten minutes. And so

1048
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,000
Speaker 1: as I get up, my father goes to come here,

1049
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 1: what was that about? I said, Dad, I don't know

1050
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,480
Speaker 1: what I did. I just said hi, mister Gambino. O God,

1051
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:56,720
Speaker 1: this guy goes so far out of his way it'd

1052
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 1: be discreet, and here comes a six year old chubby

1053
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 1: bus It knows exactly who you are. And I saw

1054
00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:05,800
Speaker 1: when I left the table, they all started laughing like

1055
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:07,919
Speaker 1: it was so innocently done. But it was very funny.

1056
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,040
Speaker 1: There's a lot of lessons to learn there, because you know,

1057
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 1: like I do say in my book Fast Forward, you know,

1058
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 1: two thousand and six is two lessons I learned. I

1059
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 1: just opened Felipe Chao on my honeymoon a mechanos, and

1060
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 1: I get a call for I think there was like

1061
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:24,520
Speaker 1: the Inquirer or something. They said, we're offering you a

1062
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:27,880
Speaker 1: million dollars for the tape. And I said, what tape

1063
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 1: and they're like, there's a tape, you know, and they

1064
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 1: mentioned their names, so I'm not going to make you.

1065
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 1: And they were having sex in your restaurant. So so

1066
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, so I called my managers right away and

1067
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:44,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, what happened? So a hip hop mogul and

1068
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 1: a Hollywood starlett were having sex in one of the

1069
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,480
Speaker 1: private rooms, I felieve, and they've noticed that we had

1070
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 1: security cameras, and I said to the manager, can on

1071
00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:56,239
Speaker 1: the security cameras and tell me what you see. So,

1072
00:51:56,400 --> 00:52:02,440
Speaker 1: oh fucking I can't love this serious, I can't. Yeah,

1073
00:52:02,719 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 1: He's like, yes, so and so reserve the whole room

1074
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 1: last night to have a private dinner. And I'm like,

1075
00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 1: give me a favor before I even get an inch

1076
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:13,239
Speaker 1: of temptation deleted off the server, right, get rid of it.

1077
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:15,560
Speaker 1: That's not how I do business. Yeah, because if you

1078
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:17,960
Speaker 1: would have leaked that out, that's something that could destroy

1079
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 1: your business. And that's not the way I've become successful.

1080
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:23,800
Speaker 1: Right now, we're talking to Stratus more Fogan. He's the

1081
00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:25,960
Speaker 1: author of Being a Disruptor, but also the guy who

1082
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 1: started Philip's, that amazing restaurant and now has one of

1083
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:32,160
Speaker 1: my favorites, Brooklyn tap House. Now another thing, because this

1084
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:35,920
Speaker 1: is streetwise lessons from entrepreneurs from the Mob to the mandates. Right,

1085
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:38,880
Speaker 1: this book that you have about being a disruptor, you

1086
00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,319
Speaker 1: also talk about your relationship with so many people from

1087
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: the Mob were coming to your restaurants and how some

1088
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 1: of them actually might be more stand up than people

1089
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 1: who work day and for the government or in politics. Yeah.

1090
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:55,360
Speaker 1: So um in nineteen ninety three this right, so now

1091
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 1: I know most of them Mob because they're run the

1092
00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 1: Faulton Fish Market and they're like extended family to I mean,

1093
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 1: I never looked at them as like there were criminals.

1094
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,279
Speaker 1: So here I go. I opened up my restaurant in

1095
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:08,120
Speaker 1: ninety three called Gotham Diner, and at that time I

1096
00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:10,440
Speaker 1: became very close with like Ralph Coppola, who was the

1097
00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:13,239
Speaker 1: underbass of the Genevc family. And these guys were friends

1098
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,759
Speaker 1: of mine, Bucky Carbone, and they were just customers and

1099
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,480
Speaker 1: they paid their bill. They did ever make you pay them.

1100
00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:20,800
Speaker 1: You said, nothing like that. Like it. They were my

1101
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:24,360
Speaker 1: friends and there was always like a mutual respect. So

1102
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 1: in ninety three ninety four it became like the hottest place.

1103
00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,360
Speaker 1: And then at the time I opened Rouge Nightclub, So

1104
00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:32,360
Speaker 1: that's what he turned away. By the way, Madonna and

1105
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: two path, we need your death story after Okay, So

1106
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,080
Speaker 1: getting back to my book. My book is a story

1107
00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:46,040
Speaker 1: of inspiration and the journey of an entrepreneur. But it's

1108
00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 1: not the typical book that you would read where it's

1109
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:52,800
Speaker 1: all based on analytics. It's basically like and this is

1110
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,279
Speaker 1: what I did to fix it, So all my analytics

1111
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,359
Speaker 1: is supported by true life story. Yeah, and that's why

1112
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,239
Speaker 1: it's hit a nerve with a lot of people because

1113
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 1: I actually beat myself up in the book quite a

1114
00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,280
Speaker 1: bit because I want people to learn from my mistakes

1115
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 1: and how I handled it. Well, let me go back

1116
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,800
Speaker 1: a little bit. So when I opened up Gotham Diner

1117
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:12,239
Speaker 1: to answer the question regarding how I got involved with

1118
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:19,680
Speaker 1: over organized caring, like, yeah, so what happened was is

1119
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:21,840
Speaker 1: so I became friends with the heads of the Genet

1120
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 1: DC family and there were my friends, but simultaneous that

1121
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:28,319
Speaker 1: I had John Gotti Junior beating up my managers, his crew,

1122
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: and then they finally came to see me. They wanted

1123
00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:32,719
Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars a month or they were going to

1124
00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 1: break all my windows. So I told him every night

1125
00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:38,680
Speaker 1: they're throwing black paint all over my windows, and every

1126
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,600
Speaker 1: night I would clean. Every morning I would clean it up.

1127
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:42,960
Speaker 1: So Ralph Copel and those guys saw me one day

1128
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 1: clean that what is this? I said, John Gotty Junior

1129
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 1: and those guys want to payment, and I'm not doing it,

1130
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:51,080
Speaker 1: and this is what I get. Sit tight. So literally

1131
00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: like six hours later they say, go to Ferry a

1132
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:55,839
Speaker 1: bistro on sixty fifty nights, on which I knew was again,

1133
00:54:55,880 --> 00:54:59,200
Speaker 1: Bino hang out, go there eleven o'clock tonight. We're gonna

1134
00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,640
Speaker 1: we're gonna squash this thing. So I get there at

1135
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:03,360
Speaker 1: eleven o'clock at night and you can see all the

1136
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 1: suits in the back, which were all the Gambino heads.

1137
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 1: And I know these guys and they're always really good

1138
00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:10,840
Speaker 1: to me. I just hate that John Gutty Junior and

1139
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:13,320
Speaker 1: those guys are all a bunch of thugs. And I

1140
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:15,000
Speaker 1: had no problem saying it in the nineties and I

1141
00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 1: still can say it today. Yeah, yeah, not afraid and

1142
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. So what happened was I get to this meeting.

1143
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,160
Speaker 1: It's like something out of like Griffellas had just come out,

1144
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:27,759
Speaker 1: and I'm like, rows like my life now, I'm like,

1145
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:30,879
Speaker 1: i'd a sit down. And then Ralph's like, listen, he's

1146
00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,080
Speaker 1: my nephew. He's around us. Tell Junior next time he

1147
00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,520
Speaker 1: comes near him, come correct or we're gonna have a problem.

1148
00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:38,839
Speaker 1: And then he goes Raffie, I didn't know I'm here.

1149
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:40,839
Speaker 1: I didn't know. I didn't know. I said, the next

1150
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:42,800
Speaker 1: time you walk into that restaurant, was you gonna do

1151
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,319
Speaker 1: this week? You're gonna pay and you're gonna bring all

1152
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,600
Speaker 1: your friends, and you're gonna pay, and you're gonna support

1153
00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,200
Speaker 1: that restaurant. And if you ever go there again and

1154
00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,120
Speaker 1: cause any trouble, I promise you the next time we

1155
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 1: see each other, i'm gonna have you crawl on the

1156
00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:56,839
Speaker 1: floor like the dog that you are, and I'm gonna

1157
00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 1: kick you in the ass until you bark in front

1158
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:00,960
Speaker 1: of all these people, my guess. And I was just

1159
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:04,040
Speaker 1: like very descriptive, Oh yeah, and that's exactly what happened.

1160
00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, all of a sudden, I think I grew

1161
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 1: six inches. As I'm walking out the door, I'm like, wow,

1162
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 1: I got friends like this. So as I'm talking to

1163
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:13,279
Speaker 1: my dad the next day about what happened, He's like, well,

1164
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:15,520
Speaker 1: he may have just exchanged one devil for the other.

1165
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 1: And I would be thinking that too. Yeah, And the

1166
00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,879
Speaker 1: truth be told, it's not true, right, no, these guys,

1167
00:56:20,920 --> 00:56:24,319
Speaker 1: because that's what you would think from we're protecting you. Now,

1168
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,840
Speaker 1: you got to pay us, right, These guys continued to

1169
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:30,480
Speaker 1: come to Gotham Diner, and basically they continued to pay,

1170
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:33,200
Speaker 1: and they wouldn't They would never hear of it. If

1171
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:34,400
Speaker 1: I want, I think the first time I try to

1172
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 1: take the check. He's like no, no, no, no, no, no,

1173
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:38,840
Speaker 1: put the check down. And they're always paying with a

1174
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:40,879
Speaker 1: credit card, which is really funny. You think mob's always

1175
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 1: paying with a credit card. They wanted yea, that they

1176
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 1: wanted a paper trail that you know what, we're just

1177
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 1: we're just like this kid and there's no nothing attached

Speaker 1: ask ye? Okay, you guys? So I am divorced. I've

1304
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,520
Speaker 1: been single four a year and five months down. I

1305
01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:03,800
Speaker 1: hus been talking to someone, taking it very slow. Fernally

1306
01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:07,760
Speaker 1: got physical, but the physical part of it just is

1307
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:12,440
Speaker 1: breach with our third would total gentleman and everything. He

1308
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 1: had great states, we have great tim spending together. But

1309
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:20,040
Speaker 1: I can't feel anything. There's nothing you could really do

1310
01:03:20,080 --> 01:03:23,960
Speaker 1: about the size. Does he do other things that pleasure you?

1311
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:27,120
Speaker 1: So yes, I was able to say, you know, horrible, yes,

1312
01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:29,720
Speaker 1: But after that, you know, once you excited, you want

1313
01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 1: to go full in. Yeah, girl, we know. So it's

1314
01:03:32,680 --> 01:03:34,960
Speaker 1: like once I get there, I don't know what to do,

1315
01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:38,360
Speaker 1: and I didn't have multiple conversations. But he's so sweet.

1316
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 1: He's just like, well, let's try something else to work

1317
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 1: on the Let's try to work on it. At least

1318
01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 1: she talked to him, right, Yea, I love to just

1319
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 1: communicate with whoever I'm with, but I feel like I'm

1320
01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:53,200
Speaker 1: kind of like messing up his ego a little bit. Yeah,

1321
01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure because it's something that he can't really help.

1322
01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:58,160
Speaker 1: Everything else that he can do, you know, like you said,

1323
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:00,840
Speaker 1: he's great at but that's one thing. He was born

1324
01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:06,520
Speaker 1: this particular way and unfortunately, sexually, it's not compatible with you.

1325
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:10,800
Speaker 1: So do you feel like could you see yourself being

1326
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:14,640
Speaker 1: with him in a permanent relationship? So in my mind,

1327
01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:17,000
Speaker 1: I don't do date today. I'd let them know before

1328
01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:19,320
Speaker 1: he is. You know, I'm looking for in the future,

1329
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:22,320
Speaker 1: something serious. I'm not any moon to like play game.

1330
01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 1: So now I think like more so towards the future. So, say,

1331
01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,320
Speaker 1: when a couple of years it's trying to have kids,

1332
01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:30,600
Speaker 1: how am I going to be comfortable with having the

1333
01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,439
Speaker 1: kids if I can't feel it? And then my therapist said,

1334
01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 1: maybe I'll grow into it. But I never experienced just

1335
01:04:36,600 --> 01:04:39,440
Speaker 1: growing into it. I just feel like you can't force it.

1336
01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:42,440
Speaker 1: And if it's not there and something's missing that's important

1337
01:04:42,480 --> 01:04:44,880
Speaker 1: to you. If it didn't matter to you that much,

1338
01:04:45,000 --> 01:04:47,360
Speaker 1: I would say work with it. If you were like,

1339
01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:49,280
Speaker 1: you know, I can deal with it. It's fine. He

1340
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:52,920
Speaker 1: still pleases me. But it feels like you're not okay

1341
01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: and you don't want to settle for something that you're

1342
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,360
Speaker 1: not okay with, and we're not here to try to

1343
01:04:57,360 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: convict you. And I get it, like maybe you feel guilty.

1344
01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:02,080
Speaker 1: Maybe you damn everything else is so great. I'm so

1345
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:04,960
Speaker 1: very guilty because I'm just like you know how us

1346
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:07,360
Speaker 1: as woman will pray for things in a relationship, and

1347
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:10,080
Speaker 1: when it comes and it's just one thing that's not missing,

1348
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,040
Speaker 1: is it right to just leave them alone? Or is

1349
01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:15,600
Speaker 1: it okay to worry about your your self happiness and

1350
01:05:15,680 --> 01:05:18,800
Speaker 1: what you want? And your self happiness is number one

1351
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:21,080
Speaker 1: right now? Let me just say that, And every life,

1352
01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:23,720
Speaker 1: it's not about trying to make the other person happy.

1353
01:05:23,760 --> 01:05:25,480
