I 181 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 1: went to the most Republican precinct in the entire country twice, 182 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: three times on the campaign trail. Not because I thought 183 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,679 Speaker 1: I was going to convert the people living in that 184 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 1: ultra right wing place. It's because all those places there 185 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 1: are people who can still relate to our experience, what 186 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: we're trying to do, our story, and even if they 187 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 1: don't hook line sinkle on every single major issue I 188 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: want to move forward. They had enough to believe that 189 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: I believed in it, and so they went and they 190 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 1: casted a ballot for me. I think it doesn't make sense. 191 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 3: Don't spend no ad money it. 192 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: It doesn't make sense for me to walk right past them, 193 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 1: casting the dispersion that everybody who lives in that area 194 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: believes that way, and that's why I shouldn't. I know, 195 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: that's not what you're saying, Katie Well. 196 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 3: Now we are now all. 197 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 4: We've gotten agreements that note, Oh my god. 198 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:54,959 Speaker 6: No, it's not. 199 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 3: It's funny because even exhausted. 200 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 4: When we were in Atlanta and Kim Blackwell was talking 201 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 4: about Katie Yeah, and me and Angela instinctively soon that 202 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 4: she said white women, we. 203 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: Were both like Andrew sympathizing Andrew. 204 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, like you need to talk to Andrew. 205 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm just like she said it.

But 218 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 4: I think what we feel is that's not our ministry, 219 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 4: that's somebody else's ministry. And I would love to see 220 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 4: white women take up the ministry to talk to their 221 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 4: own people, and like, I'm not here to save you, 222 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 4: you know, like you benefit from me saving myself.

And I'm saying, so that's why I say, yeah, Biden, 543 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 8: he ain't doing he shit. So but Trump, I would 544 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,520 Speaker 8: feel that he will be the better person to get 545 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 8: in Biden. 546 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,280 Speaker 4: I'll tell you what my challenge was as a journalist, 547 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 4: have to remind myself we're not in the newsroom. And 548 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 4: what I was saying is like we hadn't independently verified 549 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 4: this footage and Fox you know it is not a 550 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 4: trusted source. 551 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 1: And when we played it in the show, you and 552 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: I had an immediate action that show. 553 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 3: Oh you want to show that? What I'm saying, yeah, 554 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 3: let's let's take a look at that. Now this reminded people. 555 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 4: I don't think honestly, I don't think we should play 556 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 4: I don't think. Yeah, I don't think any of I 557 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 4: don't know. I wouldn't I didn't know that. 558 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 6: I want I want to play some of it. 559 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: I do not want to play what part because it's 560 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: a whole commercial ridiculous because it sounds like propaganda. 561 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 4: Yes, one hundred, But then you were pushing back in 562 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 4: roal time, so I don't remember. The compromise was we 563 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:33,480 Speaker 4: played a tiny bit. We cut it down significantly. 564 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I think in reflection for me, I see 565 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: more now post the election, the value of of hearing 566 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: just the what felt like ludicrosity. I don't know if 567 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: that's a word. I'm making it up, but it felt ludicrous, 568 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: you know, at the time, and I knew there were 569 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: elements of sentiment. I just wasn't prepared to buy what 570 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 1: I had seen in that video. And the truth is 571 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: is I think that probably was a sentiment, if not 572 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: to that extreme versions of it that replayed itself all 573 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: throughout the cycle that culminated and obviously what we saw 574 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 1: in the elections outcome. 575 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 4: I don't know if that's what we saw in the 576 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 4: elections outcome yet, but I think for me, it wasn't 577 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 4: that the idea that these people may not exist. It 578 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 4: was we don't know who these people are. It is 579 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 4: a random collection. There is no follow up. We don't 580 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:22,760 Speaker 4: know are you a registered voter? Where did this footage 581 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 4: come from? 582 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 9: Like? 583 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 4: Who are these people? So it wasn't necessarily like, no, 584 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 4: it's not true. We shouldn't acknowledge their people out there. 585 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 4: It is before we platform something, we have to it's 586 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 4: responsible to verify who are these people, where. 587 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 3: Did it come from. 588 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 4: We've seen networks get caught out there in that, which 589 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 4: I think has led to the erosion of public trust 590 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 4: in media, where they do these panels of independent voters 591 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 4: and then you find out, oh, but this person is 592 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 4: a Trump organizer. We didn't know if these people were paid. 593 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 3: Anything like that. 594 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 4: So I would have like the conversation we had in 595 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 4: Atlanta where we ask, and we're hearing from you right 596 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 4: in our face directly, we can ask follow up questions, well, 597 00:29:59,440 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 4: how do you feel? 598 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 3: So it wasn't the issue of shouldn't. 599 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: We being shared? 600 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 3: Right? It was is this the appropriate way? 601 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 6: When? 602 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 4: I don't know where this even came from, But I 603 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 4: think the bigger debate that a lot of people might have, 604 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 4: which I think you and I've had on and off air, 605 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 4: should we be talking to those people? I've never felt 606 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 4: like we shouldn't be. I've always said I shouldn't be. 607 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 4: That's not a valuable way for me to spend my time. 608 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 4: I think you have more tolerance to talk to people 609 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 4: who may feel that way, and I can be a 610 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 4: bit like, yeah, I don't really even like if you 611 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 4: don't care enough this whole question about what Kamala Harris 612 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 4: that would do with black people, and you ain't even 613 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 4: care enough to google that shit before you ask something 614 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 4: that done. 615 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: That's not the same her opponent the same question. 616 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 4: Precisely, precisely so for me, that's not my ministry to 617 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 4: do that. You know it isn't, But I'm not saying 618 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 4: that ministry shouldn't. 619 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 1: Exist for me. 620 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 5: I saw that sentiment so much and I remember in 621 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 5: twenty sixteen feeling there, and I've talked about it the show, 622 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 5: very cocky, very Hillary gone, you know, Molly wopped his hole, 623 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 5: like not thinking at all that it was going to 624 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 5: be a contest. And so this time, because remember that 625 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 5: episode aired when Joe Biden was still in the race, 626 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 5: it was feeling very much like it was going in 627 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 5: the direction of twenty sixteen. To me, it did not 628 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 5: feel like twenty twenty. So I'm like, here are the 629 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 5: things that I'm hearing from the randos in my family. 630 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 5: My god brother was talking about supporting Trump until they 631 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 5: came after his godsister. So I was hearing this stuff 632 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 5: and I ain't give it Dan where it came from. 633 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 5: I was hearing that so consistently, not as much as 634 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 5: it got when we got closer to after Kamala was 635 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 5: leading the ticket. Then I'm like, how are you staying 636 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 5: Black people still supporting this? To like, you got your 637 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 5: sister and they was like, hey, my sister. 638 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 6: So I'm like, I'm so confused about this. But I 639 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 6: wanted to be I didn't want to be open to. 640 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 5: The perspective so that it persuaded me, but I wanted 641 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 5: to be be sensitive, sensitive enough to hear it, because 642 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 5: I wasn't at all in sixteen. 643 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 3: So that was And I think that's the question. 644 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 4: Be curious if if you're curious about it for yourself, 645 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 4: I want to I want to understand what you're saying. 646 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 4: It's a different bucket than I'm going to platform this, 647 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 4: you know, And. 648 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 1: I think we had to think that video. I do 649 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: think we had to platform the perspective. That's because I 650 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: think it was real and the otherwise is to bury 651 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: our head. But I think your point is obviously on 652 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: that particular yeah point in this show, we had not 653 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: platformed that perspective. 654 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 5: Understand what's the way to platform it if it's not, 655 00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 5: because that's not our perspective. 656 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 6: So do we bring in the Trump support. 657 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 1: What they have to say? 658 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 4: Thank you the guy in the audience in Atlanta who 659 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 4: was talking about what he he had like some organization, young. 660 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 1: Man he comes into contact with every week and basically 661 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 1: is what the me is and we don't feel seen her. 662 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: That is like to me, this guy's directly in front 663 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: of us. The video of course, again it just felt 664 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: like propaganda. It felt like they had spiced together a 665 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: bunch of and by the way, these could have been 666 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 1: real sentiments by real people expressed to me. Felt a 667 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: little selling. 668 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 5: Get that different too, because I've done men or women 669 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 5: on the street like I did my my you know, 670 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 5: do you know your black facts? 671 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 6: And did do you know your politics? And walked up 672 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 6: to people in the same way. 673 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: So I didn't see that, But the randomness of that 674 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: made me feel like there was no one you came 675 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 1: in contact with who was black. We had a different 676 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: perspective than the one you put in this video. 677 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 6: And so it was in Chicago even more so. 678 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 3: Then I think that reflects the difference in our backgrounds, 679 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 3: you know. 680 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 1: But also three hundred thousand fewer or maybe half a 681 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 1: million fewer people Democrats voted in the city of Chicago. 682 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 5: This is what I'm trying to tell you, Like, well, 683 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 5: a lot of there were a lot of twenty twenty period, 684 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 5: but twenty six I get. 685 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 1: But overall still I want to see thember. 686 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 5: From twenty sixteen to twenty twenty four, just you know, 687 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 5: just for that contrast. But I'm telling you there are 688 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 5: members of Congress who have talked to before that we 689 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 5: aired the video here and now who are overwhelmed by 690 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 5: the number of black people who said they were either 691 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 5: going to stay home or voting for Trump, all because 692 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 5: of the migrant stuff, which was also propaganda. 693 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 3: And yes, and I'm not saying that's not. 694 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 5: People's real lived experience, but the way that it's being 695 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 5: packaged and they force fed to us so that there's 696 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 5: no room for nuance. 697 00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 4: Across social media and everything. But again, I just want 698 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 4: to be crystal clear, it wasn't the sentiment I was 699 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 4: applying newsroom sensibility and journalists where this isn't a newsroom, 700 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 4: you know. But I think I always want to be 701 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 4: very careful what I put out to people and know 702 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,600 Speaker 4: if I'm ever showing you something it's been veted. I 703 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 4: made call, I've done it. This it did look like 704 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 4: like Project veritized. 705 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: Well, you know, check out a clip that we know 706 00:34:57,600 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 1: what may up because it happened right here on the show. 707 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 1: But nowhere near the government of the United. 708 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 5: States been sitting down in the Old Office with the 709 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 5: president what they have had, were letting down with the president. 710 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: Can this man is guys, this isn't that. That's not 711 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 1: the point. All I'm saying is we can go off. 712 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 6: The the point. 713 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 3: We can we can let me hear and let me. 714 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: Hear what you have to say, Andrew, you can go 715 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 1: off the cliffs clip and never ever ever get power again. 716 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 1: You can, you can, you can. That isn't where we 717 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 1: are because we have the beginning, he said, this was 718 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 1: the last Angela. Angela, you are smart. However, your wisdom 719 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,439 Speaker 1: does not supplant that of all of the American people 720 00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,239 Speaker 1: who went out and voted. And unfortunately I've had to 721 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: subject myself to the same damn thing. You don't think 722 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: I'm hurt. I felt awful, I felt humiliating. I'm going 723 00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 1: to finish my point. I guess what. We've known each 724 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: other a long time. I mean, y'all, this woman dated 725 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,280 Speaker 1: my very best friend since. 726 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 7: I mean my best friend since that point, you know, 727 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 7: and after law school between That's all I'm simply saying 728 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 7: is I've had a moderating me. 729 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: Still living, We're still breathing. There's always opportunity. Listen. The 730 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: point being, disagreement don't equal the end of a friendship 731 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: or relationship, a love deep leadership. And I don't mean 732 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: just anthemy between Angela and myself. I mean that fertifany 733 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 1: and any other disagreements that occur on this platform, I 734 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: think What surprises me about people's reaction to our disagreement 735 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: is that I think they conclude that it's like, you 736 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,360 Speaker 1: know how I remember those bands when we were younger, 737 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,640 Speaker 1: and we were like, there was such great music. I 738 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: was a super fan, and then all of a sudden 739 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 1: we hear they broke up and nobody ever knows why 740 00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:16,439 Speaker 1: they broke up because their stuff didn't necessarily play out publicly. Well, 741 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: we're not those bands, and you're not going to turn 742 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 1: on the TV and there's a breakup, you know, in 743 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 1: quite that way. But it people feel uncomfortable. Well, no, 744 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: people feel uncomfortable about our disagreements to the point where 745 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 1: I've heard people say, look, I just fast forward through it, 746 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 1: or I turn it off and I'll pick up the 747 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,520 Speaker 1: next episode, or you know, something like that. And I 748 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: love your care. But I do think that people need 749 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: to be able to see disagreements happen. They also need 750 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 1: to see reconciliation happens. That disagreements don't mean finality to 751 00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: anything until someone says it's final, and even then there's 752 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 1: room for negotiation if they still draw breath, is my belief. 753 00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,359 Speaker 1: But I think there is discomfort about it. Reason why 754 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: I don't feel complete discomfort. 755 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 2: One. 756 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 1: What you may not have the benefit of looking at 757 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 1: it is the personal conflict that exists on any regular 758 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,879 Speaker 1: day in and out of it. Right. That's another reason 759 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 1: why I'm skeptical when people say, well, I would have 760 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,439 Speaker 1: done such and such and such and that situation because 761 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: you're I would have done is absent our experiences up 762 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 1: to this point. So you're I would have done will 763 00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:26,279 Speaker 1: look different than mine because we don't share the same 764 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,759 Speaker 1: experience to this moment. But that is okay for that 765 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:31,759 Speaker 1: to happen, and it's okay for it to happen out 766 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 1: loud and for us to be able to reconcile that. 767 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 1: But I think that reconciliation also really should be out loud, 768 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:39,400 Speaker 1: just as the conflict is. 769 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the thing that's funny to me about 770 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 5: like our fights, is there's always this I say to people, 771 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:47,840 Speaker 5: like even outside, they're like. 772 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 6: That Andrew Man, he like, I can say this about Andrew. 773 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 5: I don't know you, Like, what are you talking about? 774 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 5: So I'll be like, just so we're clear, Andrew's not wrong. 775 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 5: Andrew is like the eternal diplomat. He is always going 776 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 5: to find some good in some person. Somewhere somehow. Now, 777 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 5: every now and then it's somebody that. 778 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 1: Crossed the diplomat piece. It's not a it's not a 779 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to fit my perspective to a role. 780 00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:16,879 Speaker 1: It is what I feel. 781 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,399 Speaker 6: That's what I'm not. Let me let me be. I'm 782 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 6: not saying that. I'm not saying that he's trying to 783 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 6: fit a role. What I'm saying this is actually. 784 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying. I'm not saying that it's performative 785 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:32,759 Speaker 5: at all. I'm just saying that Andrew is. I said 786 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 5: this on the show. Andrew is a new Testament Christian. 787 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 5: I am very old testament right until about turning the 788 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 5: other cheak. I'll turn another cheek once and then you 789 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,719 Speaker 5: get slapped back. So it's and I will slap you 790 00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:46,279 Speaker 5: harder for Andrew and Tiff. 791 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:47,239 Speaker 3: That's the other thing. 792 00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 6: So it's like I will I don't mind. 793 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 5: People being involved in those parts of our conversations or 794 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 5: even the conflict, or even picking sides. 795 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 6: But when you go low on one of these two, 796 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 6: I'm going lower. I promise you to platform can meet you. 797 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 5: I'm backside, so no, but I will just say I 798 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 5: think the thing that I appreciate about our conflict. 799 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 6: Even when y'all let me yell. 800 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 3: There was a there was a. 801 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 6: Show we did where TIF was like, but why are 802 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,720 Speaker 6: you yelling? I said, I'm not hard or whatever. 803 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 5: I said, I'm screaming, And it is you learn in 804 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 5: therapy like some of these things go back to like 805 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 5: childhood and you ain't feel heard somewhere. 806 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 6: And I'm still clearly working through sixth grade. 807 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:29,280 Speaker 1: But you're not the only one. What I know about 808 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,400 Speaker 1: people and I know about myself is oftentimes when we 809 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: are in argument, the thing that is driving and fueling 810 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: what it feels like the passion of the real energy 811 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 1: there sometimes isn't the thing we're talking about. Sometimes it's 812 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 1: something else. And all of that, at least for me, 813 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 1: I have allowance for to a point, as we all 814 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 1: have things to a point. But I think in our 815 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: community particularly, we have to be able to show that 816 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: disagreement doesn't mean finality, it doesn't mean the end. 817 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:00,800 Speaker 6: Do you know. 818 00:41:00,920 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 5: The only other thing I want to say about this 819 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 5: is this Joe Biden having Donald Trump in the White 820 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 5: House thing. 821 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 3: I still feel. 822 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 5: Strongly about that because here's the only reason why, and 823 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:12,919 Speaker 5: it's maybe it's not the only here's the biggest reason 824 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:18,360 Speaker 5: why we literally were telling people the entire cycle, and 825 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 5: I believe this still, that democracy was at stake and 826 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,160 Speaker 5: you can't say that the entity or the person in 827 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 5: all of their backing that is behind this is now safe. 828 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 3: And that is what you like. 829 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:31,440 Speaker 6: It's almost like he. 830 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 5: Was welcoming him into America's home, one that taxpayers pay 831 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 5: for and all that. You still may disagree, I get it, 832 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:42,399 Speaker 5: but I'll just say, like it may, I was mad 833 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 5: at him because I felt like in so often we 834 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 5: are forced to defend Joe Biden when Joe Biden I 835 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 5: don't feel like has always protected us or even like 836 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,080 Speaker 5: like even with pardons and you know, all these things 837 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 5: like the cash for Kids guy and all that, like 838 00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:03,879 Speaker 5: all of that, and we're forced to defend you when 839 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 5: you shouldn't be defended. 840 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 6: And I'm just beyond it. And I think I've been 841 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 6: beyond it for probably about four years, but I just 842 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:12,800 Speaker 6: I've never I can't anyway. 843 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 1: So we still disagree, but that's the nature of it. 844 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,080 Speaker 1: Keep tuning in if do you still disagree. 845 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 3: With him inviting him in the White House? 846 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: Absolutely, yeah, Well, do we have to build consensus again 847 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: on the to this next clip. 848 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,880 Speaker 6: He's over it.

And I just wish that. 865 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 5: When they go through this journey of what it means 866 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 5: to birth people, you know in this country, how much 867 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 5: of a struggle it is, how much of a blind 868 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 5: eye they turn to black maternal health or maternal health 869 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:40,600 Speaker 5: period with the blind eye they turned to the kids. 870 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,399 Speaker 5: Tipulate out all the data, Andrew you laid out the data, 871 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 5: the personal experience you and Tip's own connection as children. 872 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 3: To this issue. 873 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:52,800 Speaker 5: We have got to have a more holistic, nonpartisan approach 874 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 5: to policy making for children and people who desire to 875 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 5: have children, and you should not shame people who did not, 876 00:43:58,760 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 5: who chose not. 877 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 3: Or who can not have kids. I feel the same. 878 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 1: I just cruelty was the point. 879 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 3: Cruelty, that's the point. 880 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: Cruelty was the point, and they're just cruel Yeah. 881 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:14,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that there are a lot of ways 882 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:17,120 Speaker 5: that if we could take a step back. My mom 883 00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:20,240 Speaker 5: always talks about perspective taking and that being the greatest 884 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,360 Speaker 5: skill we can learn in life. I think our politics 885 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 5: would be more friendly, our workplaces would be more friendly 886 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:27,399 Speaker 5: places of how our learning would be if we only 887 00:44:27,480 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 5: took a step out of our shoes and into, you know, 888 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 5: the shoes of others. 889 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 1: Problem is the majority, the governing, the majority that exists. 890 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 1: They don't have the they have the freedom never to 891 00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:42,399 Speaker 1: have to look at it from another perspective. When your 892 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 1: decision's final, when your decision is the one that will 893 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 1: rule the day every time, why do I have to 894 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 1: take a moment to hear where you come from. I 895 00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 1: do think that is an incredibly helpful skill, and there's 896 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 1: one that we've all had to had to deepen into, 897 00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:00,359 Speaker 1: not just develop, but really deepen into in professional work 898 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,800 Speaker 1: environments to have our way. Our listeners will relate to 899 00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: that they know what it means to go into a 900 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 1: room that is opposed, and not just opposed, don't care 901 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,879 Speaker 1: enough to be opposed, but they care enough that their 902 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,800 Speaker 1: perspectives still will rule the day. So how do we 903 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 1: communicate to a people to stop you where you are, 904 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 1: say open your eyes and just see me clearly for 905 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 1: a moment. And maybe if you see me and hear 906 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,800 Speaker 1: me clearly for a moment, you can understand the passion 907 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 1: I bring to why that thing is so important. And 908 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,759 Speaker 1: if they care about you at a personal level, maybe 909 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:36,880 Speaker 1: maybe you reach them. But I just I don't have 910 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 1: a belief that Donald Trump, his crew and the like 911 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 1: are ever going to take a pause and say, I 912 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 1: wonder how that lands with how that sits with them 913 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 1: if we do that. But I've never had that hope 914 00:45:54,560 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 1: for them, So it doesn't happen. Now, okay, moment the 915 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: only thought I had as I walked, thank you Jesus. 916 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,440 Speaker 1: There are no cameras, No one will ever see me 917 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,359 Speaker 1: this way. They can describe it, but my kids won't 918 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: ever see these chains. It was the biggest source of 919 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:18,720 Speaker 1: embarrassment for me because I remember back to that story 920 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 1: of me telling you all that I never wanted to 921 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,680 Speaker 1: make my mom cry for me get into trouble. It's 922 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: all I could think of her seeing me. So they 923 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 1: weren't there, and we go through the proceedings and the 924 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: judge says, this is the United States of America versus 925 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 1: Andrew Gill. I mean I wish, I wish I hadn't 926 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:48,479 Speaker 1: felt so emotional and expressive about it, but that was real. 927 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 1: Why for me? Well, I mean it, you always in retrospect, 928 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 1: I think sometimes are always like could I have said 929 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 1: that and just said it and not have felt like 930 00:46:58,080 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 1: I come? You know, I came apart. 931 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,040 Speaker 5: But I don't think it's so good you did that, 932 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 5: Like I I honestly andrew it till I want to hear. 933 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,120 Speaker 3: What you said. Because this is a production group up. 934 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 5: I guess I think it would be so dope for 935 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,840 Speaker 5: Andrew to have a show with folks who are like 936 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:16,040 Speaker 5: recovering politicians or who lost the race that they shouldn't 937 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,279 Speaker 5: have or whatever, where they are like, okay, now what 938 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 5: do I do? And like the grief that hits you 939 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 5: after the election because the voters are all like, I 940 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 5: don't know what I'm gonna do now that you lies, 941 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 5: You're like, bitcha, what about men? 942 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:28,279 Speaker 1: You know? 943 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,839 Speaker 5: So I think it would be such a good conversation 944 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 5: with him and others who have gone through that experience. 945 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 6: I'm glad not that you came apart, but I'm glad 946 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 6: that you were vulnerable. 947 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:37,279 Speaker 3: Enough to open up. 948 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, no, I mean it was what it was. 949 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:42,440 Speaker 3: If you don't want him to do that, I want 950 00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 3: him to do that show. 951 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:43,480 Speaker 10: Yeah. 952 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,880 Speaker 4: I think what would be interesting is even if it 953 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 4: was somebody who lost the race and then later went 954 00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 4: on to win a race. It's about you know, what 955 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 4: you did after defeat, So it doesn't have to be 956 00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 4: you know, people who aren't currently in public office, they 957 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,400 Speaker 4: might still be in public office. I think that's a 958 00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 4: good show. 959 00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I think the journey for all of 960 00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 1: this matters, which can apply to anybody in any sector, 961 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 1: just happens to be a lot more public when you lose. 962 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:11,840 Speaker 1: The only thing I reflect on is the number of 963 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 1: people who still you know, tell me how hurt and 964 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:19,720 Speaker 1: you know, mad or sad or disappointed because I always 965 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,319 Speaker 1: think like, do you really think that you are more 966 00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:28,359 Speaker 1: that than I? Uh, they might they may think. 967 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 3: They may think that, yeah, they. 968 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 1: May think think the cost has been born largely by 969 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: my household and people who I see and care, you know, 970 00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 1: care the most about. 971 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:45,440 Speaker 5: So that being said, sorry, this is I hope I 972 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:47,120 Speaker 5: won't be down a rabbit hole. But just one thing 973 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 5: I thought about they after losing.

There's gonna be some racial justice stuff we're 1082 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,719 Speaker 5: fighting on every side. We see in corporations, roll back 1083 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,960 Speaker 5: DEI efforts all of that. So as we look ahead, 1084 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 5: what roles shall we play in creating safe space but 1085 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 5: also challenging what's ahead? 1086 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:39,839 Speaker 3: What do we think? 1087 00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 4: I think one thing that I've been struggling with and 1088 00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:49,320 Speaker 4: just thinking about, because it's not always a struggle I 1089 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:51,360 Speaker 4: feel like a broken record when I say, trying to 1090 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:53,279 Speaker 4: cover this man is like trying to catch confetti, Like 1091 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:57,440 Speaker 4: you can get so distracted in that that you lose 1092 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:01,879 Speaker 4: the bigger picture. So I know, well, personally, I would 1093 00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 4: like us to talk about overarching themes, not get so 1094 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:08,239 Speaker 4: caught up in the chaos of this administration, because there's 1095 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,080 Speaker 4: going to be a ton of it, you know, And 1096 00:55:10,280 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 4: by the time that this podcast airs, ten things have happened, 1097 00:55:15,680 --> 00:55:18,240 Speaker 4: you know. And that's intentional, Like they want to flood 1098 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:21,239 Speaker 4: the news cycle with nonsense, so that is what people 1099 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 4: end up talking about. You chase this around and then 1100 00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 4: while you're looking over here, this thing has happened. While 1101 00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:30,319 Speaker 4: you're looking at Jim Comey being fired, mandatory minimums are 1102 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,320 Speaker 4: brought back, you know. And so I think one I 1103 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 4: want to focus on giving our people something to believe in. 1104 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 4: What does democracy look like to you? Another thing I 1105 00:55:40,640 --> 00:55:45,400 Speaker 4: want to focus on is big, big, big laws that 1106 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 4: are potentially changing, Like how are we protecting laws and 1107 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 4: then protecting our person? And I think a lot of 1108 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:56,680 Speaker 4: that comes from our physical mental person, but also from 1109 00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:58,880 Speaker 4: a policy perspective that comes to your point from the 1110 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 4: state and local level. And you can actually impact policy 1111 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 4: at the state and local level a lot easier than 1112 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:07,440 Speaker 4: you can at the federal level. So paying attention to 1113 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:10,840 Speaker 4: what's below the fold, the things that the echo chambers 1114 00:56:10,880 --> 00:56:15,840 Speaker 4: are not discussing, informing people as much as opining, you know, 1115 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,360 Speaker 4: like making sure people walk away armed with oh, I 1116 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 4: understand this issue better, which encourages action, It encourages participation, 1117 00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:26,440 Speaker 4: and then opening up the space more to hear from 1118 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 4: people more. 1119 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:29,359 Speaker 3: We had a good idea the other day. 1120 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:29,840 Speaker 9: What was it? 1121 00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:32,800 Speaker 4: Oh, yes, I would like us to see to do 1122 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 4: if I'm if I'm previewing something, we're not ready for it, 1123 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 4: we'll cut it out. But a town hall with people 1124 00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:42,560 Speaker 4: who did not vote, yes, like vetted people we know, 1125 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 4: like we know y'all didn't vote, and we want to 1126 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 4: hear straight up from you. How do you feel about democracy? 1127 00:56:48,920 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 4: What would it take for you to participate? I would 1128 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,280 Speaker 4: really love that and that might be an ongoing series. 1129 00:56:54,320 --> 00:57:00,359 Speaker 1: I think you said, no, that's that it was going 1130 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: to be like the thing that I think this year 1131 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,680 Speaker 1: hopefully affords us the deepening into like what's real and 1132 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:10,840 Speaker 1: what isn't I you know, I'll use for example, a 1133 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,680 Speaker 1: lot of the news media has been talking about people's 1134 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 1: reactions to the really unfortunate murder that occurred in New 1135 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:22,520 Speaker 1: York with the corporate healthcare CEO, and the fact that 1136 00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 1: on TikTok and all these other platforms people are raising money. 1137 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 1: They're saying, you know, creating alibis. He couldn't have done it. 1138 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 1: He was with me, we were on a date, or 1139 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 1: you know whatever. And they're talking about how just you know, sinister, 1140 00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,480 Speaker 1: this feels and sounds and this is and that and third, 1141 00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 1: and I keep thinking, you know, this is how the 1142 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,160 Speaker 1: chasm starts. Like you're all the way over here on 1143 00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:44,360 Speaker 1: the sanctimonious regular folks are are are here, And I'm 1144 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,680 Speaker 1: not ascribing regular folks being at the opposite perspective. But 1145 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,680 Speaker 1: the fact is is the chasms have to like shrinking 1146 00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,640 Speaker 1: until they no longer exist. And it's important to me 1147 00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:58,800 Speaker 1: that that happened amongst our community more than more than anything. 1148 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,040 Speaker 1: And it isn't for any political outcome that I'm concerned about. 1149 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:05,480 Speaker 1: It's because I want to recognize who I'm in community with. 1150 00:58:05,800 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 1: I want to and if I say we're in community together, 1151 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:09,480 Speaker 1: I want that to be true not just for me, 1152 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:12,320 Speaker 1: but to be true for you. I can't claim you 1153 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 1: when you disagree with everything that I believe in and 1154 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 1: stand for, and I the same you know with you. 1155 00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:21,680 Speaker 1: So that deepening into what people what is driving where's 1156 00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:24,080 Speaker 1: the motivation? Is it about a check or is it 1157 00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,880 Speaker 1: about respect? Is it about you know? What does that 1158 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 1: look like? Also, while I I completely receive the point 1159 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 1: that this administration will be a bunch of stuff just happen, 1160 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:38,480 Speaker 1: events being mistaken for progress, I know that there's gonna 1161 00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 1: be a lot of that happening. But then on the 1162 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 1: real there's gonna be a lot of a lot of stuff. 1163 00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:49,400 Speaker 1: It's hard to warn people about what they're gonna miss, right, 1164 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 1: you know, like, oh, I have this today and it's 1165 00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 1: going to be taken from you because most of us, 1166 00:58:53,760 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 1: our minds won't be wrapped around the fact that it 1167 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 1: can really be taken from us. But ask women and 1168 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 1: men who understand reproductive health. I'm afraid about the what 1169 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:07,800 Speaker 1: will be stripped from us. That will be taken and 1170 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:10,560 Speaker 1: it won't be done in the bright lights of the camera, 1171 00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 1: but in the midnight hours and when people aren't paying attention. 1172 00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:18,200 Speaker 1: That will reap real havoc on our community. So our 1173 00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 1: ability to watch, see and guardrail on some of those things. 1174 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 1: And then I think, lastly for me, hopefully this year 1175 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:29,200 Speaker 1: is going to be about us sort of having more 1176 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:33,520 Speaker 1: of our interpersonal show up our you say, you know, 1177 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 1: tending to ourselves, tending to the health, the mental well being, 1178 00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,720 Speaker 1: health and care. I think we talked about that throughout 1179 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 1: this year. I hope we do a little bit more 1180 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 1: diving deeper into that to help people fill equipped with 1181 00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 1: some tools on how to navigate this life we're living 1182 00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 1: right now and to personally I need it, and I 1183 00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 1: know that if that's true, that that's probably true for 1184 00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:57,680 Speaker 1: someone else too. 1185 00:59:58,560 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 3: I love that. 1186 00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 5: I think the thing that I really am hoping for 1187 01:00:03,360 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 5: is more connection with our audience and people who will 1188 01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 5: one day become audience, but they feel like NLP fam. 1189 01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:12,920 Speaker 5: I love if you bringing up the idea around the 1190 01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 5: town halls.
