Speaker 3: and in prayers.

42
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 5: We know that Hurricane Melissa has is basically just doing

43
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 5: devastation on the entire island. Everyone is getting hit. So

44
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 5: I'm just keeping them up today.

45
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: One hundred and eighty mile per hour Category five hurricane

46
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: one of the strongest hurricanes in history. By the way,

47
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: they're also saying that this is becoming more frequent as

48
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: the climate wings, so that's something to pay attention to.

49
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 1: It's not just by chance. And so far Hurricane Melissa

50
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 1: is responsible for seven depths, three in Jamaica, three in Haiti,

51
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: and one of the Dominican Republic. And they're talking about

52
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: this is going to be devastating for the infrastructure in Jamaica.

53
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: So just prayers out to everybody who has family there,

54
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: everyone who is there. I'm looking online at people. I

55
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,839
Speaker 1: see they have like cot setup that used to be

56
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: loungers outside by hotels and shelters for people to try

57
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: to make sure that they're okay. But it's now pushing ashore.

58
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: We're watching this in real time, so this is the

59
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: beginning of the landfall process right now. The most extreme

60
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 1: and devastating wings again are up to one hundred and

61
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: eighty miles per hour.

62
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 3: Right, Like you said, it is one of the strongest

63
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 3: storms in history, and this is something else going to

64
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 3: be thanks they're gonna have to recover from for weeks

65
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 3: on end.

66
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,000

99
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: Michael Blackson yesterday.

100
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 5: Yep, I think we all were that mess.

101
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: Yes, Well, apparently he has two young boys and they

102
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: were born just two months apart, June seventeenth and then

103
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: August sixth. But the problem is he's engaged or was

104
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: engaged to ride it and very publicly engaged by the

105
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: way he proposed while I was on the Breakfast Club.

106
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: Wow yeah, on the show. That's actually how he got engaged.

107
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 5: What year was that?

108
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: Was that? Twenty twenty one?

109
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 3: Oh oh, so they've been engaged for a long time.

110
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 3: They just never got married. That's a little reugh fly

111
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 3: right there too.

112
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 1: Something I don't know that long engagement right, yeah, Okay,

113
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: Well he said good day to all my family, friends

114
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: and fans. The last few months, God has blessed me,

115
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: but in blessing me came a lot of pain. Two

116
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: months after Rada gave birth to little Mikey, a female

117
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: friend I've known for over five years also gave birth

118
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,839
Speaker 1: to my son, King Kwai kublacksin.

119
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 3: My friend that part, like you were saying, Angela, like

120
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 3: you said, people already.

121
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 5: Think men and women can't be friends.

122
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: Yes, the Senate the alarm right.

123
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 3: It sort of proves the point that men and women

124
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 3: can't just be friends.

125
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: And then the worst part of this is that he said,

126
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 1: my apologies to Rada, and I hope she forgives me

127
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: for the pain I brought to her. I'm going to

128
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,040
Speaker 1: be the best loving father in the world to avoid

129
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: turning into Nick Cannon or Elon Musk. I'm only dating

130
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,919
Speaker 1: women that ran out of period or had a hysterectomy. See.

131
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 5: I know he's being funny.

132
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 3: I hope he meant that's time to be funny. But

133
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 3: why is he making a joke out of his infidelity?

134
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 3: I mean, I know they weren't married, but still, like,

135
00:05:58,760 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 3: why are.

136
00:05:59,080 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 5: You trying to make it?

137
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 1: She responded and said I don't normally respond, but let's

138
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: just agree this was the most pathetic post or apology ever.

139
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,359
Speaker 1: I'm walking in peace, goid it by God's grace. My

140
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: energy belongs to my four month old son, not to negativity.

141
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 1: People always tell me they are embarrassed for me, or

142
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: it's getting embarrassing at this point. But for me, when

143
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: love runs that deep, you stop seeing the man and

144
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,679
Speaker 1: start seeing the boy who just wanted to be loved,

145
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: and that's what breaks you. I didn't just love. I

146
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,039
Speaker 1: understood the pain, the innocence, the child in him. And

147
00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: she took full accountability, she said, for staying in the

148
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: circus too long.

149
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's what you were saying that a lot

150
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 3: of folks were coming at her because you knew what

151
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 3: he was doing, Like this is not a surprise, Like

152
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 3: you know he was cheating. You know, he had quote

153
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,799
Speaker 3: unquote female friends and now one of them ended up pregnant.

154
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: So it's like, yeah, cause I had a lot of

155
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 1: empathy for her. But then yesterday while we were filming

156
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: lip Service, they were like, I mean she was in

157
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: like an open relationship where he was doing what he wanted,

158
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: and so so she did take accountability for sometimes we

159
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: do understand too much, and you know.

160
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 5: Second excuses.

161
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know, but if you're going to

162
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 3: be in an open relationship and you know he's with

163
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 3: other women, so she's just mad that he had a baby.

164
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 3: Was that the agreement, like, you can go out and

165
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 3: do you just don't have any kids on me.

166
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I feel like we're gonna see

167
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: and hear more at some point because he's so public

168
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: about things and I'm sure it's hard to not respect me.

169
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 3: He's making jokes about it, So maybe he'll get a

170
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 3: stand up routine.

171
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: I'm sure he fell this and DDD and Halle Bailey

172
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: in the meantime, good news for them. They have dropped

173
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: domestic violence restanding orders and they have reached a custody plan,

174
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,040
Speaker 1: and so Halo, who's now one year old, is going

175
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,560
Speaker 1: to be able to see both of his parents. They

176
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: have a temporary arrangement that gives him custody on Wednesdays

177
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: and certain weekends, and then there's another schedule that's going

178
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: to implement sixty days later. That's a big deal, it

179
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 1: is for them.

180
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 5: I'm happy for Halo.

181
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 3: That baby deserves obviously a mother and a father that's

182
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 3: very present in their life. I'm happy that they were

183
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 3: able to reconcile and come to some mature agreement. Regardless

184
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: of their their relationship, relationship status.

185
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 1: It's about a cool parent, It's about Haye. But when

186
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 1: we come back, we have about last night where we

187
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: discussed what we did last night. I can't wait to

188
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: hear what you had going on. I was filming lip service.

189
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: I'll give you some insight. Its way up.

190
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 4: So about last night, Yes, I went down.

191
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's way yup. But Angela, yea. I'm here with

192
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 1: my guest host for the day, Selena Hill, founder of

193
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 1: hill Rise Media. What did you do last night?

194
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:25,119
Speaker 5: Girl?

195
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 3: I was in a house following the news of the storm,

196
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 3: following the news of the election. You know, early voting

197
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 3: has started here in New York City. I was like,

198
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 3: we're on, were taking it.

199
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:35,719
Speaker 5: This is a win for us.

200
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 1: So, oh my god, let me tell you something. This

201
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: has been one of the craziest elections that we have seen, yes,

202
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 1: in a long time. Oh yeah, but yes, early voting

203
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,599
Speaker 1: did start here. So and I know a lot of

204
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: people are having elections all around the nation. So just

205
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: important to make sure that you are involved. I always

206
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,959
Speaker 1: say that, like, make sure you go out and vote

207
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: even and I want to say this too. This was

208
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: something that I read, this book Run for something that

209
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: people we should encourage people who we know to run

210
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: for office too, who we think would be amazing, who

211
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: maybe never even thought about it, or even yourself.

212
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 3: You know, girl, I'm thinking about it. Are you really

213
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 3: you planted a little seed? Remember at the Pink Galo

214
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 3: last week? You talked about that when you did your

215
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 3: acceptance speech, and I was like.

216
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe I should, Yeah, you should run for an office.

217
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 1: Like do you know how much people would support you?

218
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: You've as somebody who's you know, educated, knowledgeable, But also

219
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,600
Speaker 1: I think we need people who are human beings who care,

220
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: that are.

221
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 3: Interconnected and that can relate to what's actually going on.

222
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 1: Because so many politicians that we see, we feel like,

223
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 1: what are they like? Do they even have any idea?

224
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:37,559
Speaker 2: Right?

225
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 3: A lot of them are like born into well go

226
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 3: to the best schools, and they aren't really they don't

227
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 3: really know what's going on on the ground.

228
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: Or care right or care right. They just care about

229
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: making some money and power. All right, Well that's about

230
00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: last night. I was doing lift service. I was working.

231
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: But one thing I want to talk about Justin Bieber.

232
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 1: You know, he made his debut on Twitch earlier this month,

233
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: which was interesting because I feel like he's been pretty

234
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: low key, yep, after having a baby, and he's you

235
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: could tell he's been through a lot. But recently he

236
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: was talking about adultery and where he draws the line,

237
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,680
Speaker 1: here's what he said, if.

238
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 8: You even think of a woman with LUSS, it's the

239
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 8: same thing as actually doing it, committing an adulty or whatever. Like,

240
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 8: it's the same thing. So it's like, it's like, if

241
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 8: it even just crosses your mind for one second.

242
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 5: Is that true?

243
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 1: Because I never looked at it like that. I figure

244
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: like people have thoughts all the time, they just don't

245
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: act on them, right, But is thinking about doing something

246
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: like committing adultery the same as committing adultery?

247
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 3: So according to the Bible, it is the word. Guy says, like,

248
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 3: if you know, luss starts in your heart. However, I

249
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 3: think that justin Bieber, the way he's applying it, it

250
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: kind of can sound a little extreme. But if he's

251
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 3: somebody who, let's say he gets tempted all the time,

252
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 3: maybe he's like, I need to start with controlling my

253
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 3: thoughts in my mind because thempatience is there, that's a door,

254
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 3: and right, if I'm not thinking about my wife or

255
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 3: whatever it is, I can fall into temptation.

256
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,079
Speaker 1: Well, we want to hear from you. Eight hundred two

257
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: ninety two fifty one fifty Call us up. Do you

258
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: think that thinking about adultery is the same as committing it?

259
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: Can you even control your thoughts and not have them?

260
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: Let us know what you think. Eight hundred two nine

261
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: two fifty one fifty call us up.

262
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 2: Babit, way up with Angela yee? Come right more now,

263
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 2: all right.

264
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: His way up at Angela yee. And I'm here with

265
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,480
Speaker 1: my guest host, Selena Hill. Thank you for joining me today,

266
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 1: of course, and we are talking about lustful thoughts. Is

267
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,360
Speaker 1: that the same thing as committing adultery? Here's what Jessin

268
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: Bieber had to say on his twitch.

269
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 8: If you even think of a woman with luss, it's

270
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 8: the same thing as actually doing it, committing adult or whatever.

271
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 8: Like it's the same thing. So it's like it's like

272
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 8: if it even just crosses your mind for one second.

273
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: Ah, I can't tell. Do you agree with this, Selena

274
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 1: or do you think it's not true? I agree?

275
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 5: I agree with him.

276
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 3: I think that like I understand the extremity of it,

277
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 3: like for certain first hearing it, because yes, committing an

278
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 3: act adultery and thinking about something.

279
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 5: Yes, there are two very different things.

280
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 3: But I think that for him and for many of us,

281
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 3: just thinking about something, dwelling on it too long.

282
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 5: Can lead to a certain.

283
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 4: It does.

284
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 3: Like anything you think about, anything you visualize, doesn't it

285
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 3: come to past?

286
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:29,960
Speaker 1: No? Not if I did, I anything I wanted and

287
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: I would get it. Okay, say it, But I think

288
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: that if you're obsessively thinking something. But if you have

289
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: a fleeting less for thought, I don't think that's a

290
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:38,960
Speaker 1: big deal.

291
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 3: Don't like session you can see somebody, I can see

292
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:44,760
Speaker 3: something like that person is fine.

293
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 5: I like how they look. I'm attracted to them, but

294
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 5: I'm not go.

295
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm not going to dwell on it. Lemar, Do

296
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: you think less for thoughts are the same as adultery?

297
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 9: I think it is the reason why I say that

298
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 9: is because I believe that you can control your thoughts.

299
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 2: There was a time in my life why.

300
00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 9: I gave myself Christ right, and you know, those thoughts

301
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 9: weren't even in me to even think of those things.

302
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 9: But granted I had the power of Christ with me,

303
00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 9: but you know it.

304
00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: Just it was oblivious.

305
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:12,719
Speaker 9: I didn't care about any of that.

306
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 2: But then when I came back to.

307
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:15,319
Speaker 9: The world, those thoughts came back.

308
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 10: Then you know, it is what it is, but you

309
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 10: can't control it.

310
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 2: I believe it can't be controlled.

311
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,360
Speaker 1: Okay, so what does that means if you think it?

312
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 1: You think that means you cheated.

313
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 10: Yes, definitely cheated.

314
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,679
Speaker 9: Because most most of the time, the first steps of

315
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 9: actually doing.

316
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 2: Something is thinking about it.

317
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 9: All right, they say the first steps of recovery is

318
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 9: knowing that you have a problem, right, So the first

319
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 9: steps of thinking about it, and I'm pretty sure the

320
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,479
Speaker 9: temptation would grow stronger if the thoughts.

321
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 10: Are in your mind.

322
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:41,320
Speaker 2: You know.

323
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 3: I kind of agree with Lamar. I think that just

324
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 3: being cognizant of what you're thinking about can lead to

325
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,119
Speaker 3: what you say, how you act, your behavior and patterns.

326
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 3: So like, So some people might be like, oh, well,

327
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 3: that's extreme, Like, you know, thinking about it and doing

328
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 3: it are two different things. Yes, I understand that, But

329
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 3: I think for some people who may say, like, oh, well,

330
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 3: I know me, I know that, like I get tempted

331
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 3: in that area. I need to start with controlling my

332
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 3: mind so that I don't slip into a slippery slope.

333
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was just thinking about it. If I would

334
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: think my man cheated if he had a thought. You

335
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, You wouldn't be mad if your FA.

336
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 5: Was thinking about some other woman while y'all together.

337
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 3: You want to hear, How would I know, you know

338
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 3: what I'm saying, unless he admitted, Yeah, how would I

339
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 3: even know?

340
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,520
Speaker 1: If not? If he tells me, that's another level because

341
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: that means he felt compelled to tell me for some reason.

342
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 1: That's but I kind of feel like sometimes like I

343
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,520
Speaker 1: thought might pop in someone's head and then they're just like, oh,

344
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: why did I you know.

345
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:37,640

357
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 7: around and promote sexuality. Women are in powered. There's so

358
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:17,480

361
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:25,040

390
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 5: It really different like an insult. But then Turk came.

391
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 5: I know he was saying, like, that's just how they talk.

392

00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 10: Man, it's just a strange love.

398
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 7: People don't understand our language.

399
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 2: I was slanguished.

400
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 11: You know a lot of people probably took that as

401
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 11: a disch but you know, I didn't take it as

402
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 11: no diss because that's how we talked.

403
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: And you know he did, by the way, host of

404
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: Versus watch party at Houston Shades of Blue, and he

405
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,439
Speaker 1: also performed after right, he was watching it, right.

406
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 5: He was watching it, he was participating. There was love there.

407
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it was just disappointing for the

408
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 3: fans that Turk wasn't.

409
00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 5: There, Wayne wasn't there, Mystical wasn't there.

410
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: And Wayne performed in Vegas, right, he had a party

411
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 1: in Vegas.

412
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 3: Now that you're also made some comments about it, like

413
00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 3: you know, it's nothing without me there, and like of

414
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 3: course not and c Murder wasn't there as well.

415
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: I mean that was in his choice.

416
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 3: Right, But I mean, if you think about it, it

417
00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 3: could have been a little bit more. But I think

418
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 3: for the people who were there, like Snoop popped out,

419
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: Juve now held it down the whole time. They were

420
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 3: saying that he was carrying the whole cash money on

421
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 3: his back and his little backsack and his little book bag.

422
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, he did not put that backpack down. Well, Turk

423
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 1: did say that it was unfortunate that the people who

424
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: did miss out with the fans. Here's what he said, live.

425
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 11: I'm gonna get my bag whenever they call it for

426
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 11: me to go get it. I can't control with nobody

427
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,480
Speaker 11: else got going on, So I don't trip about that.

428
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 2: You feel me, you ain't gonna see me going, oh man,

429
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 2: I ain't this. I ain't nah.

430
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 11: But you got the fans mad because the fans not

431
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 11: get what they're supposed to have.

432
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: Well, that's a fact, you know. I enjoyed watching it,

433
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: though I do have to say I was going crazy

434
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:25,760
Speaker 1: remember it songs. There was a couple of songs. I

435
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 1: ain't no, just a couple, but we're from besides.

436
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 5: But it was still a good time.

437
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,000
Speaker 1: But it was amazing. Yeah, and there was something I

438
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:35,880
Speaker 1: was so excited to hear. So I'm sure that's gonna

439
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,920

477
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: and you'll be back Friday, yes period. All right, well,

478
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: let's get into some of these under the radar stories. Now,

479
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 1: Amazon is laying off thousands of corporate workers. They want

480
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,919
Speaker 1: to slim down and spend a lot more money on AI.

481
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 5: Come on, yep.

482
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: So they're going to cut about fourteen thousand corporate jobs.

483
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: That's about four percent of their workforce. And they've ha

484
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 1: been getting it pressure to tighten their finance. It's interesting

485
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 1: because they make so much money.

486
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:42,879
Speaker 5: You wouldn't think, like Jeff Bezos is one of the

487
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 5: richest people on planet Earth.

488
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 1: Right, So but you got to tighten it up now.

489
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 1: News reports suggest layoffs could affect as many as thirty

490
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: thousand corporate jobs across human resources, and you know Starbucks

491
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: has cut off nearly two thousand corporate jobs as well.

492
00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:00,800
Speaker 1: Targets said they're going to cut eighteen hundred jobs from

493
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:05,119
Speaker 1: their corporate headcount. As everybody's trying to I guess say,

494
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:06,639
Speaker 1: f us, Yeah.

495
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,439
Speaker 3: Because they invested so much in AI and they have

496
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 3: to see an ROI. So that's why they're cutting down

497
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 3: the workforce. And basically we're all getting replaced.

498
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 1: All right. And Microsoft teams right now is going to

499
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: be able to detect when an employee arrives at the office.

500
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:23,919
Speaker 1: It's going to monitor their connection to the building's Wi Fi.

501
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,120
Speaker 1: So if you're late or you're doing different things, your

502
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 1: boss will know, oh no.

503
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 3: Oh no, because we're back in the office now a

504
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:35,360
Speaker 3: couple more days.

505
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: And Microsoft's as soon as you step in, they're gonna

506
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 1: let that's when you have to give somebody else your laptop,

507
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: right the work around. Listen, I don't worked in the

508
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: office before where I had to punch people in. Remember

509
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 1: when people had to punch a clock or sign in.

510
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: I worked in retail where you had to sign in

511
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 1: on the register.

512
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 5: Remember those days.

513
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: And baldness there could potentially be a cure. So everybody's

514
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,239
Speaker 1: ears perked up in while the guys in here their

515
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:03,880
Speaker 1: ears perked up. But there's a serum that was created

516
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 1: from researchers in at the National Taiwan University that caused

517
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,239
Speaker 1: hair regrowth and mice in just twenty days, and so

518
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: what male baldness. Did you know is the most common

519
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:18,520

520
00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,719
Speaker 1: the food too, and the food, but it's genetics, it's aging,

521
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: certain medical conditions, diet and stress. Those are the reasons.

522
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 1: So there's treatments that already available, but they're saying this

523
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: could be a game changer. So you guys, oh so

00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 1: joining me, of course, having a good time, I am.

537
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 1: And we were looking at this news story, you know,

538
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 1: during the mix and Drake and Aiden Ross and Steak

539
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: are facing a major lawsuit and this is over that

540
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: gambling promotion that they've been doing. It's an online casino

541
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: company and now there's a class action lawsuit. Can you

542
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:21,360
Speaker 1: break it down?

543
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:28,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, So it's saying that they're being sued. Basically, the

544
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 3: state of Missouri is saying that Drake and Aiden Ross

545
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 3: have been collaborating together and promoting state as a result

546
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 3: that is influencing young people. Basically, Steak is they're saying

547
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 3: that Drake is one of Steak's unofficial influencers and anything.

548
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 1: It did it right.

549
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 3: So basically if he's promoted, first of all, they give them.

550
00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 3: Steak gives Drake and Aiden Hell's money. So anything that

551
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 3: they if they even they say, oh we lost money,

552
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 3: it's still a part of our marketing tactic. So and

553
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 3: obviously Drake has millions of fans, so by him promoting

554
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 3: online gambling, young people are gonna look at that.

555
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,159
Speaker 5: And be like, oh, okay, I want to get involved.

556
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:12,920
Speaker 5: I want to do it too.

557
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 3: So they're kind of like blurring the lines of legality

558
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 3: there well.

559
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 1: And they even posted I saw online they were posting

560
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 1: like some old clips of Drake, Aiden Ross and also

561
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 1: the owner of Steak basically having a conversation where you

562
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 1: can see that they're actually getting funds added to their

563
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: gambling account. Listen to this added five hundred kate Vault balance.

564
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 2: Please, yes, Drake, we're clear.

565
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're clear.

566
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 2: We're good. I think we're we're Eddy Eddie. I owe

567
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 2: you one.

568
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 5: I actually owe you one.

569
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 1: Oh my wow.

570
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 2: And my Roulette when win came through.

571
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I'm oh my god, wow, trained good good lord.

572
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,360
Speaker 1: Now I think that I don't know if this would

573
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: be a problem if they were openly saying we're getting

574
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: paid where you you know, this is an ad this

575
00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 1: is an endorsement. I think the problem comes in with

576
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:07,120
Speaker 1: them acting like this is their own money and it's unofficial. Yeah,

577
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 1: so it's not like you know how they'd be like

578
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:15,479
Speaker 1: hashtag ad or. And so here is Drake on you know,

579
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: on live basically streaming saying that he's using real money.

580
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 2: Love to see chat like just talking crazy.

581
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 12: Like oh yeah, you guys, and you're like fake Gamma, Yo,

582
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 12: listen to me when I tell you the amount of

583
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 12: hours and the amount of I've been through with these

584
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 12: guys in this chat right here, ups and downs, real money,

585
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 12: lending each other money, doing this.

586
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 2: Doing that.

587
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's a little misleading because you're not saying

588
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: we're playing with house money. You know, here's a disclaimer

589
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,959
Speaker 1: and a lot of young fans and people that are

590
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: influenced by this. So it'll be interesting to see how

591
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: that plays out. Because this is really in federal court

592
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: in Missouri, YEP. So they filed this suit there yesterday

593
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: because in some places online gambling is also not legal.

594
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 3: That part. It's just business practice. That's what the lawsuit

595
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 3: is claiming. So we'll we'll see, we'll see how this

596
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 3: plays out.

597
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, with all these gambling things going on, Paul Parris,

598
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,399
Speaker 1: in the meantime, has been formally hit with two criminal

599
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: charges after he got arrested in La earlier this month.

00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 5: I mean, I will say this you.

00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,760

00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 1: All right? Its way up with Angela Yee. And I'm

627
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: here with Selena Hill, who's been guest hosting today.

628
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 3: Yep.

00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,720

00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,600
Speaker 1: who you are, and I've been following your career for

631
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,520
Speaker 1: a while, but i want to make sure that everybody's aware.

632
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: And I'm trying to think of when we first met,

633
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: because you are a journalist, a real journalist, and you've

634
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 1: definitely interviewed me before, but I've met you before.

635
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 3: That, Like, I know you've been a featured in Black

636
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,640
Speaker 3: Enterprise a few our events for years, so I feel.

637
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,880
Speaker 5: Like it might have been no, no, no, no, I've

638
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:47,880
Speaker 5: seen you at events.

639
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, And speaking of seeing each other at events, I

640
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: feel like Selena is always working. That's one thing about you.

641
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: You hosted so many panels, so many events. You're the

642
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,479
Speaker 1: go to person. I feel like when people want somebody

643
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: who is knowledgeable about everything about entertainment but also about politics,

644
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,719
Speaker 1: about what's going on in the world and listen, I

645
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: just want to say, like, whenever I see you in

646
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:13,760
Speaker 1: this space. I just recently saw you at the Pink

647
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 1: Power Dinner YEP, and I was like, Selena, like, I

648
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: need you to come up here. Yes, and guests host

649
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,439
Speaker 1: some way up with you because Black Enterprise is one

650
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 1: of the publications where you are the director of multi

651
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,120
Speaker 1: platform Contents. How long have you been at Black Enterprise.

652
00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 5: Oo, girl, I've been there for nine years.

653
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,320
Speaker 1: Okay, yes, And I was telling you earlier that you've

654
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: also interviewed so many people that are icon to, like

655
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: Queen Latita. That's somebody that I went to one day

656
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: being able to get an interview with.

657
00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 5: She was so funny too.

658
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 3: I remember, like we did it virtually and she started

659
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 3: doing like a British accent, like out of nowhere and

660
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 3: had me like cracking up laughing, like she's so personable.

661
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,360
Speaker 5: I had a great time. Let's just talking to her,

662
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 5: you know.

663
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 1: But then going from that, you've interviewed Kamala Harris, Yes.

664
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 3: Yes, viewed her when she was just about to announce

665
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 3: that she was going to run it to be President

666
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 3: Biden's vice president.

667
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this because you know there's been

668
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: some rumors going around that she may potentially run again.

669
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 1: What do you think about that?

670
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 5: She said? She said, it's very possible.

671
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you think about her running again?

672
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 3: Like, I think we're gonna have to really pay attention

673
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 3: because I mean a lot of times when a candidate

674
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 3: does not make it the first time, I feel like

675
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 3: the electorate isn't always as gracious. Like a lot of

676
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 3: times folks are like, well they lost already, we want

677
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 3: somebody new.

678
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,520
Speaker 5: Personally, I like Kamala a lot.

679
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 3: She has the credentials, she has the portfolio, she can

680
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 3: do a great job.

681
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 5: She would have been a much better president than what

682
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 5: we have now.

683
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 3: But I mean, if she runs and she becomes the

684
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 3: Democratic nominee, she will definitely have my vote.

685
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 1: All right, So if it was between her because Gavin

686
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: Newsom's also been talking, I love.

687
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 3: Gavin Newsom too, especially the way he's been trolling Trump,

688
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 3: the from the me the hat that he made, I mean,

689
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 3: the way that he just mimics Trump and everything he does.

690
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 3: I think that's made him very relevant. I love the

691
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 3: fact that Gavin Newsom has talked talked to people on

692
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 3: the other side of the aisle, from Steve Banning or

693
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk, Like he's showing that Democrats don't have to

694
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 3: be in a box, and he's doing things a little differently,

695
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 3: and he's using humor I think to really build his base.

696
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 5: So I like what he's doing.

697
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: All Right, we're gonna talk more to you when we

698
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: come back. Selena Hill is here. You also have your

699
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: own He'll Rise Media. You're the founder of that, and

700
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about that when we come back. It's

701
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: way up.

702
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, more way up with now.

703
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: That's way up with Angela. Yeah, I'm here with Selena

704
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 1: Hill and we're talking about not just you working as

705
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: a director of multi platform content and black enterprise, but

706
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: you being an entrepreneur and founding hill Rise Media. Yeap,

707
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:53,560
Speaker 1: talk to me about that.

708
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, So you know, I was always doing consulting in

709
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 3: an unofficial manner, like years ago, I was working with

710
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 3: Angela Simmons and helping her team out, and then I

711
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 3: was like, I think it was twenty twenty three. I

712
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 3: was like, this is the year I want to do

713
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,719
Speaker 3: it officially. I got my LLC, I started getting clients,

714
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 3: started working with people and consulting when it comes to

715
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 3: media relations, public relations, and also events.

716
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 5: And just the things, just like the information, the.

717
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 3: Insight that I've gained over the years working in media

718
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,479
Speaker 3: and journalism, just sharing that with other people, all their

719
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 3: business owners, like your selfie, like obviously you don't need

720
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 3: any help in.

721
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: Those areas, and like a lot of people act like

722
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: we don't need help because sometimes people can see things

723
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: that you can't see. True, and we are always evolving.

724
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 1: And I feel like when I step out to events,

725
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: because I feel like I'm so busy all the time.

726
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: I don't go out much, but when it's a room

727
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: to be in, you are always in the room to

728
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: be in.

729
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

730
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 1: Yes, but that's important too, because I also think people

731
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,440
Speaker 1: have to understand the importance of even sometimes if you

732
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 1: don't feel like it, pulling yourself that part out of

733
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: the bed, pulling yourself out of the house and off

734
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: the couch and going out and talking to people and

735
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 1: being there, because that's how the opportunity happen a lot.

736
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:01,000
Speaker 5: Girl.

737
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 3: So one of my clients, we've been doing strategic positioning

738
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 3: with her and getting her in those rooms and she

739
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 3: landed a really big deal or really like she's signed

740
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 3: to UTA just by being in a room, you know,

741
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 3: I mean, like, I mean.

742
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 5: Obviously she's she's a super dope person.

743
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: But sometimes help that's the foundation you're done. But then

744
00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: how do people make you get.

745
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 5: To that next level?

746
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, being out and about Like you said, ye,

747
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 3: I'm a people person. I'm either at an event or

748
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 3: I'm hosting an event, and it has led to a

749
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 3: lot of opportunities for me.

750
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 5: Absolutely.

751
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of people right now struggling

752
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 1: with finding work and employment, and black women in particular

753
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 1: are having quite a challenging time. Can you talk to

754
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: us about that and some advice or things that you

755
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: see that could help because I know, even in the

756
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: field of media and journalism it's been tough, but it's

757
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: been tough all around, it really has.

758
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 3: I mean, just this year, three hundred thousand black women

759
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 3: have left the workforce or been fired. We see what's

760
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 3: happening on the federal level. The Trump administration have been

761
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,719
Speaker 3: making mass federal cuts. Obviously, we have a Shutdow you

762
00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 3: talked about earlier, how Amazon is making huge corporate cuts.

763
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 3: So the economy it self right now is not looking good.

764
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,000
Speaker 3: A lot of folks are losing opportunities. However, we need

765
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 3: to find other opportunities. We have wisdom, we have insight,

766
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 3: like I just said, consulting, if you were working in

767
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 3: corporate or you have your own business, you can use

768
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 3: that to teach others, to empower others, whether it's client

769
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 3: to client or even working with other corporations, because, like

770
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 3: you said.

771
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 5: People don't know everything.

772
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,760
Speaker 3: And I think with us as black women, we have

773
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 3: such a unique perspective because you know, we see things differently.

774
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 3: We deal with discrimination, we deal with microaggressions, and we

775
00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 3: know how to help corporations navigate that. We know how

776
00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 3: to help other professionals navigate those you know, navigate that scene.

777
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 5: So I think we have a lot to contribute.

778
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: I love this all right, Well, you'll be back on Friday,

779
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: yes for sure. And when we come back, you guys

780
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: have the last word because this is our Way Up

781
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,680
Speaker 1: with the family with the word he is the last
