00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 3: the money. I don't care about retirement. I just want

29
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 3: to get to a point in my career where I

30
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 3: can just like peace out for the month of August

31
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 3: because even though it's my birth month and I love it,

32
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 3: I'm sorry Leo's but like August is like the armpit

33
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 3: of the calendar, especially if you're in New York. I

34
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 3: don't know about the rest of the country, but like

35
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 3: New York, it's just a festering cesspool of stank and

36
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 3: uh So this weekend, even though I was sick, I

37
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 3: was like feverish I had, I was an antibiotics, I

38
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 3: was sniffling. I got my sick butt on the bus

39
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 3: and went down to Asbury Park, New Jersey, just to

40
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 3: get to the beach. Like just that's how bad it is,

41
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: just to get out of this neighborhood. That's what the

42
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 3: links I went.

43
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: To how long was that bus ride?

44
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: Well, so it was supposed to be. So I wasn't

45
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,919
Speaker 3: even taking the bus to Asbury Park. I was taking

46
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 3: the bus to my friend's house and she was gonna

47
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 3: drive us the rest the way to Asbury Park. So

48
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 3: of course I dragged fiancee boo. But I'm not really

49
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 3: telling him like how far exactly we're gonna be going,

50
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 3: because one I don't really know, and two bus schedules

51
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 3: are weird, and three I didn't I wanted him to

52
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 3: like be okay with it. You know, we're on a budget.

53
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 3: So I was like, we're really close to the George

54
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 3: Washington Bridge. The bus stop is right there. Port Authority

55
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 3: has like a satellite bus stop. We'll just take the

56
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 3: train down two stops, hop on a bus and call

57
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 3: it to day. But of course, like the train schedule

58
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 3: was wrong on Google Maps and it was totally different.

59
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 3: When we got there, we missed our train, so the

60
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 3: next train wasn't for an hour I mean sorry bus

61
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 3: And we got on the bus finally, and we were

62
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 3: on it for half an hour, having a good time,

63
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 3: Like we had a little dunkin Donuts. Next thing I know,

64
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 3: we're like going the wrong direction. I don't know where

65
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 3: we are, and we're supposed to transfer apparently, and then

66
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 3: we get off and we're like in the middle of

67
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 3: I don't know, something called West New York. I never

68
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 3: knew there was a West New York.

69
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I knew there's a East New York, but I

70
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: didn't know this.

71
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 3: Is that a Jersey thing like the West New York.

72
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know. I just know like East New York.

73
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 3: There was like a lot of candies and a Mandy's

74
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 3: and a children's place and a dunkin Donuts. That's all

75
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 3: I know. So we had to put up like a

76
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 3: flare gun and get rescued by my friend. So she

77
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 3: drove out and that was That was our bus adventure.

78
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: Oh that's nine. I don't know the bus.

79
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 2: It's hard, it's very I could do a train, I

80
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: could do a plane.

81
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: I can. The bus is just not my cup of tag.

82
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 3: When it's right and it's good, it's good, you know,

83
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 3: like when you do when you get the schedule and

84
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 3: you get there on time, you get a seat, it's good.

171
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,560

Speaker 3: Doesn't it feel like the world has changed in the

248
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 3: last week between the Olympics, like before the Olympics after,

249
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 3: because my whole life has been watching these clips and

250
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 3: these like live events more than First.

251
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 2: Of all, mister Bolt, I just want to say the

252
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 2: level of disrespect now, I'm just saying this in a

253
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 2: facetious way.

254
00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 1: He is hilariously awesome. Did you see the memes?

255
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 2: Like when he mid mid run, he turns his head

256
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 2: and smiles cheekily at the camera.

257
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 3: No, I haven't watched his race yet.

258
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, many you have to watch it.

259
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 3: First of all, is here the first thing that popped

260
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 3: up when I googled his name, like this picture.

261
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 1: Look at his feet blurry and his face is like

262
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 1: you see me?

263
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 2: He honestly, he's amazing. So first of all, so it's

264
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 2: one hundred meters, so it's a very quick race. And

265
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,000
Speaker 2: so like you see them at the block and you

266
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 2: see this guy has this huge lead. This man is like, yeah,

267
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,920
Speaker 2: that's cute. Clearly overtakes and then just blows past him

268
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 2: to win the race. And I just was like, he's

269
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 2: he's honestly just amazing. And what I was reading like,

270
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,120
Speaker 2: you know, more of this, Like I guess more of

271
00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 2: like the what makes him different is that most while

272
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: most athletes or most runners are kind of de instead

273
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 2: of accelerating, they're just you know, they're they reach a

274
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 2: point where they accelerate very quickly and they start to

275
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 2: slow down. When they're starting to slow down, it's really

276
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 2: when he starts to really kick up, and that it

277
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 2: takes him longer to decelerate. I don't even know if

278
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 2: that's a word, but you know what I mean. It

279
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 2: takes him longer for him to slow down. And I

280
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 2: just thought, wow, just to watch him run he is

281
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 2: And I know Jamaica was going crazy. I saw this

282
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 2: funny meme of this guy like wearing like all Jamaican

283
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:53,439
Speaker 2: paraphernalia and like flag stuff all over his body, and

284
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 2: they're like, how Jamaicans are gonna go to work today?

285
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 3: The wait, wait, I'm still not over the gymnastics, which

286
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 3: I know it's old news. Now, can we talk about

287
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 3: the Simone Biles.

288
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,720
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, she's just amazing.

289
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 3: She's just like a little I don't I'd heard so

290
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 3: much about her. I was almost like, let me just whatever.

291
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 3: I don't feel like looking her up, like oh, she's

292
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 3: the next next coming of gymnast god or whatever. But

293
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 3: then I tuned in and then I actually watched her.

294
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 3: I don't she's like an alien. She's like a four

295
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 3: foot eight yes, like teeny tiny, nineteen year old alien

296
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 3: human being.

297
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 2: And then do you see, Like I remember her coach

298
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 2: was like you could just tell her clothes, it's just

299
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 2: like living. She was like, yeah, what Simone does on

300
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 2: the balance beam. People can't do on the floor, like

301
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 2: on four inches, she can't.

302
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 3: It's like indescribable. I don't know all the terms and stuff.

303
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 3: But it wasn't just her, you know what, when it

304
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 3: was it was the entire women's gymnastics team. Like when

305
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 3: they see all five of them together, they call themselves

306
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 3: a final five. I don't know all their names. There's

307
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 3: a really cute little Lori Hernandez.

308
00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's from New Jersey. I'm like, oheay, she's from Jersey.

309
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 3: And then Gabby Douglas of course, who was like the

310
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 3: Simone Biles before Simone was Siman Biles at the last Olympics.

311
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,320
Speaker 3: She was there and it's just like such a diverse

312
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 3: group of like young women and they all just loved

313
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 3: each other and then they kicked ass.

314
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:13,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

315
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 3: I feel like, you know the Olympics. What people don't

316
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 3: realize is you think, you know, these people are where

317
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 3: like all the American athletes have like Nike shoes on.

318
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 3: They look very polished and like very like people think

319
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 3: these people are rich, but they're not like most like

320
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 3: I think just a small fraction them actually are making

321
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 3: money off the sport, like Gabby Douglas's mom just filed bankruptcy.

322
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 3: She she won the Olympic goal. Yeah, she won the

323
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 3: Olympic gold in London. Her mom has filed bankruptcy because

324
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 3: that's they They literally give their entire life, their finances, everything,

325
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,080
Speaker 3: everything to this sport. I mean, there's just not like

326
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 3: a huge because people don't tune in to these sports

327
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 3: until the Olympics comes around. Like who's watching shot put

328
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 3: competitions like in you know, off season, you know, and

329
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: giving these people the kind of ratings they need to

330
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 3: actually bring in those huge advertising dollars and sponsorships and stuff.

331
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 3: So these people and the ones who lose, Like it's

332
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 3: not just the ones who lose either, Like I mentioned

333
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 3: Gabby Douglass, Like these families are broke, so the Olympics

334
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 3: for them is like everything. And there's this whole conversation about,

335
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 3: you know, Malcolm Gladwell wrote a whole thing about whether

336
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 3: the Olympics and this has He's not the first person

337
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 3: to say this, but like how much money NBC is

338
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 3: making off this broadcast and like these athletes, I think, like,

339
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 3: if you don't win, you're not making hardly anything. I

340
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 3: don't know, that's that's been in the back of my

341
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,560
Speaker 3: mind the whole time when these people when you see

342
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 3: them crying and you see their parents crying, and you think,

343
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 3: like they literally are giving they gave their lives for

344
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 3: this moment and they don't win. You know, it's it's yeah,

345
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 3: it's humbling and not to you know, now I'm the

346
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 3: Debbie Downer, but it just brings a whole other element

347
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 3: of like feels to watching them, you know.

348
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, because like you said, like you you give your

349
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 2: whole life to this, Like it was I mean, this

350
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 2: is kind of funny, but like somebody wrote, I think

351
00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 2: it was on BuzzFeed, it was hilarious. They were like

352
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 2: they were talking about the Lussain Bolt meme and people

353
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: were like, oh, I feel like he's you know, he's

354
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 2: too arrogant or whatever. And he like this person wrote

355
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 2: just some funny comment where basically he was like, it's crazy.

356
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: You see the guy to the left and to the

357
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: right giving his life, his soul.

358
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 2: He's dying out here in Nusain Bolt is like, yeah,

359
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 2: just trampling all over your little dreams, like you know,

360
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 2: you know, like you worked here and you work eighteen

361
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 2: years to get here, and he's smiling at the camera.

362
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:26,200
Speaker 1: Like you see me.

363
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 3: That's the Olympics.

364
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: So yeah, and some people are just.

365
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 3: I just read only okay, just for to interrupt you,

366
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 3: but okay, I just read that gold medal. As an

367
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 3: Olympic gymnast, they only make twenty five thousand dollars for gold.

368
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 1: Wow.

369
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 3: And it's not just a year of like that's twenty

370
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 3: five thousand dollars over and let's just say I started,

371
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 3: you know, really training four years before that is like

372
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 3: less than seven thousand dollars a year in annual salary.

373
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: So if you don't get like the weedies, if you

374
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 2: don't get the endorsements and all the other kind of stuff, yes,

375
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,280
Speaker 2: then you know, and even then like yeah, you get

376
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 2: the endorsements, it's just say, you get one hundred thousand

377
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 2: dollarsand addorsements, but it costs that much for your coach.

378
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 3: And then what if you get injured, there's no insurance,

379
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,719
Speaker 3: Like you don't get covered. So go support your athletes.

380
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 3: Stop rolling your eyes. Go to NBC dot com. You

381
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 3: can watch if you have a cable subscription, you can

Speaker 3: watch the live and post live videos on NBC dot com.

383
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 2: Well, I mean my weekd was it was definitely some

384
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 2: high points and some low points. A friend of mine

385
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 2: actually passed away. Yeah, it was so crazy, because you

386
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 2: know how you just feel like when someone passed you

387
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 2: like I just saw them. But it was kind of coming.

388
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 2: She had diabetes that she'd been struggling with, but it

389
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 2: was some people's diabetes. I feel like it's really aggressive.

390
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 1: You know.

391
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 2: I know people who have diabetes and you'd never know,

392
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 2: And then I know people who have diabetes and it's

393
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,919
Speaker 2: like breaking them down. And hers was really I guess,

394
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 2: I don't know, it was breaking her down. And she

395
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 2: had livered trouble. At one point she was getting dialysis

396
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 2: and then then she had developed congestive heart failure. Meanwhile,

397
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,679
Speaker 2: she's twenty nine, so not like some old woman, you know.

398
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 3: Wow.

399
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was crazy because like she so she

400
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 2: she was a poet and also too she did lock

401
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,879
Speaker 2: so I remember she spoke tipically, you never do anything

402
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,439
Speaker 2: with your locks. Come to the shop and I'll do

403
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,119
Speaker 2: them for you for free. Don't even worry about it.

404
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 2: So I came, and I don't even remember how I

405
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,959
Speaker 2: first met her, just from like I guess, being in

406
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 2: on the art scene in Newark, but just she was

407
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 2: a big personality, just super sweet and nice, and she

408
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: often drew my locks. I went and then right before Essence,

409
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 2: I remember freaking out saying, my hair is too long.

410
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 2: I need to get it trimmed. So I called her

411
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 2: and she said, well, I'm not in the shop anymore.

412
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 2: I'm not feeling so great, but you can come to

413
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 2: my house. And I said okay, and I went to

414
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,840
Speaker 2: her house and I just remember thinking what happened to

415
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 2: Brianna to breathe. She she came to the door, like

416
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,080
Speaker 2: it took like nearly ten minutes for her to get

417
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,120
Speaker 2: to the door, and I'm thinking she home. She came

418
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 2: with a walker, and I mean twenty nine years old, young, vibrant, beautiful,

419
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 2: and I thought like, well what happened? And she said,

420
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,880
Speaker 2: you know, my diabetes is really taking a toll. And

421
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 2: I just remember the whole time thinking why are you

422
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,359
Speaker 2: cutting my hair? You should be That's how she was, like, Oh,

423
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 2: I don't worry about me, how are you?

424
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: You need to be ready for Essence?

425
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,719
Speaker 2: Just so giving and kind and it's like you can

426
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,200
Speaker 2: feel her aura. She was just one of the sweetest people.

427
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,639
Speaker 2: And so she's cutting my hair, talking and meanwhile I

428
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 2: complained more about the weather that she complained about her predicament, Like.

429
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, well, how are you doing?

430
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 2: Oh, you know, I'm not feeling so great, but I'm

431
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 2: really grateful that I'm here and I'm happy, and I'm

432
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 2: just so grateful. And I just remember thinking, you know,

433
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,120
Speaker 2: you have nothing to complain about, Tiffany. But I also

434
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 2: remember thinking that because she lived with her mom, who

435
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 2: also has diabetes, and I remember thinking that it looked

436
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 2: like they were having a hard time as far as

437
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 2: like getting around, and so I could not shake like

438
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 2: the feeling of like.

439
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: I have to do something. So I call one of

440
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 1: my friends who's a social worker and.

441
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 2: Said, and she's like the queen of advocacy, Like there's

442
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 2: always a program. So I called her my best friend, Linda,

443
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 2: and I said, hey, Linda, you know, I just came

444
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,320
Speaker 2: from a friend of mine's house. She looks like she's struggling,

445
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,719
Speaker 2: she has medical issues. Is there something she can apply for?

446
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: And Linda, of course, and Linda fash I've known Linda

447
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 2: literally my whole life.

448
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 1: Our parents used to actually be roommates. And Linda always

449
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: knows a program.

450
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 2: She's like, yeah, girl, there's a program where they're going

451
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 2: food shopping, where they're clean your house for you, all

452
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 2: of this for free.

453
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,000
Speaker 1: As long as you qualify.

454
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 2: And so she was like, ask your friend if she

455
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 2: would mind getting on the phone with me and I

456
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,160
Speaker 2: could walk her through. And so I hit up Brie

457
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 2: and she said yes, I would love that, and they

458
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 2: connected and Linda basically walked her through the process of

459
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 2: applying for these programs that most people don't apply for.

460
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: But then the next day.

461
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 2: Her health started fading. So this is like maybe a

462
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: month or two ago, and not even a month or two,

463
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 2: just a month ago. And so she went to the

464
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 2: hospital the next day. But the plan was when she

465
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 2: got out, the programs were going to start. But she

466
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,040
Speaker 2: went to the hospital, we went to visit her in

467
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:02,919
Speaker 2: great spirits, sit doing poetry. She was so awesome, Like

468
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 2: every time we went, there was always someone. There was

469
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 2: always people at the hospital visiting her. People don't visit

470
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,479
Speaker 2: their own mom, but they would come see her, you know,

471
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 2: and just in such great spirits. And so I just assumed, like, Okay,

472
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 2: she's getting better, she's looking better. And then she took

473
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 2: a turn and then this weekend she was on a

474
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 2: ventilator and like I just kept telling Linda something that

475
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,200
Speaker 2: to feel right. I'm calling the hospital, but they're saying

476
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 2: she's not there, and I just I had called her

477
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 2: a few days before and she didn't pick up. I

478
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,400
Speaker 2: text her, she didn't text back, and that's not like her.

479
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 2: And Linda went like found out like she was at

480
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 2: a different hospital and as soon as she got there,

481
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 2: they had honestly pulled the plug, like within moments of

482
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 2: her getting there.

483
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,720
Speaker 3: And I was just like, what, that's awful.

484
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it.

485
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 3: Just diabetes is you know, I think people make light

486
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 3: like light of diabetes, but it can kill my I

487
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 3: have a huge history, my family history of diabetes, and

488
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,679
Speaker 3: I mean, especially with her about the black community and

489
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 3: mynes in general, diabetes is a killer.

490
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 2: It is on a Superman's mom passed away early. I

491
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 2: mean she was still in like I believe her fifties diabetes,

492
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 2: and we worry about Supergirl because she is like her

493
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 2: grandmother's twin and just worrying about like making sure that

494
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 2: her health is like where it ought to be. I

495
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 2: mean she's active and she's young, but still and it

496
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:24,400
Speaker 2: just I didn't realize the extent of like what diabetes

497
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 2: can do heart, liver, and just so quickly.

498
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 3: Yes's treatable, and it's you know, but it's like you

499
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 3: have to have access and the resources, and it just

500
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 3: has to be like part of the community culture. And

501
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 3: I feel like it hasn't really hit black communities. Like

502
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 3: my aunt, you know, Aunt Shirley makes You Rest in Peace,

503
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 3: passed away about five six years ago, and like she

504
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 3: had the treatment, she had, had her leg amputato below

505
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 3: the knee amputating, and like all these drastic procedures and

506
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 3: yet and yet you go there and they would be

507
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 3: the orange soda and they would be the pizza, and

508
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 3: it's it's it's sad, but it's like, you don't know what.

509
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 3: I don't know what's at the root of that, but

510
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 3: it was it's sad to see so many of my

511
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 3: family sort of be taken way too early. I mean

512
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 3: way too early. My just like Superman's mom, My grandma

513
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 3: died in her late fifties from complications of diabetes. My

514
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 3: dad had diabetes until two years ago. And let me

515
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 3: just give a shout out to Obamacare for this. I

516
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 3: don't know if I've told you this before, but so

517
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 3: when Obamacare was enacted, the first thing I did was

518
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:29,720
Speaker 3: called my dad and I was like, we're signing you

519
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 3: up since I since my parents. But when I was ten,

520
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 3: my dad is not as health had health insurance. Ever

521
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 3: he goes, always goes to the emergency room and waits

522
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 3: eight hours to be seen for whatever. But he got Obamacare,

523
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 3: got a good plan, and he went and he got

524
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 3: gastric bypass surgery and immediately the diabetes went away immediately,

525
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 3: And ever since then, he's changed his lifestyle, he's eating better. Yeah,

526
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 3: he invigorated him. And I'm so happy because for the

527
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,119
Speaker 3: longest time, I was like, is my dad next, Like

528
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 3: he's in this it's almost sixty, you know, this is

529
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 3: like the danger zone. Not many people in his family

530
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 3: make it past sixty. So yeah, I don't know. I

531
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 3: I think what you did, and I think we just

532
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 3: like could reach out to people more, yeah, and help

533
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 3: them with those issues.

534
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 2: To me so young though, and honestly this has been

535
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 2: there was a few like kind of like life lessons

536
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:20,600
Speaker 2: that I learned.

537
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: One was to, like, like.

538
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,600

540
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 1: On the phone everything seems fine.

541
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 2: It wasn't till I went to see her, you know,

542
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 2: and then it's something doesn't feel right, act on it,

543
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 2: like I wish, you know, I like, just there's so

544
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,080
Speaker 2: many services out there, Like I always tell Linda that

00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 2: she needs to start a business called the on.

Speaker 1: So but there's so many programs.

551
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:55,959
Speaker 2: But a lot of people don't know how to navigate.

552
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 2: And I always saw she should start a business, you know,

Speaker 2: There's so many available to you. And two she with

556
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,120
Speaker 2: despite the fact that I'm sure she was feeling terrible

557
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 2: as far as physically, the grace and the courage that

558
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 2: she displayed. I mean, some people, you know, they pay lips.

559
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 1: He so, oh, I'm fine.

560
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 2: She was genuinely grateful, just like such a warm spirit.

561
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,679
Speaker 2: I remember thinking, like, how can you not be angry

562
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 2: or mad? But none of that was there, And I

563
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 2: just remember thinking that it just reminded me to really

564
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 2: walk in a space of gratefulness, you know, because here.

565
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 2: She was grateful for where she was at that moment

566
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 2: in time, despite things happening, and sometimes I have everything

567
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 2: and I'm way less grateful at times.

568
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 3: You know, Well, it sounds like she knew that she

569
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 3: was loved in the end. Yeah some funds around.

570
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,879

00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 3: about it. I think we it's always good to talk

574
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff.

575
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,959
Speaker 1: So it is time for brown break or brown boost?

576
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:17,120
Speaker 1: Are you breaking or boosting?

577
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 3: I always take a break? Well, shoot, I want to

578
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 3: do both. First. I want to give a boost to

579
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 3: all the Olympic athletes because obviously that's been my entire

580
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 3: life recently and you're all amazing. I want to take

581
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 3: a break.

582
00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: Though.

583
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 3: I don't know if you've been noticing, but there's been

584
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 3: a little and especially for Gabby Douglas, there's been some

585
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 3: like it's like somewhat sexist. I'm pretty sure most of

586
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 3: it's like rooted in sexism, but just like the way

587
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:44,639
Speaker 3: that announcers and reporters have been like referring and not

588
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 3: just reporters, but like fans on Twitter and stuff have

589
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 3: been reacting to these athletes. And I'll just use Gabby

590
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 3: as an example, because like, people have been dragging this

591
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,120
Speaker 3: poor girl Olympic gold medalist from twenty twelve, like respect.

592
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 3: You should give her some respect, have been dragging her.

593
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 3: There's a mouse, give me out in this apartment.

594
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 4: Oh my god, hold on, they went under the bad tiffany,

595
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 4: I know, I know, god, it was a baby.

596
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 3: I thought it was over.

597
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: It's never New York.

598
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 3: It's never. Oh my ship. Okay, all right, all right,

599
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,919
Speaker 3: we need like that that that like public service announcement.

600
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 3: I don't know what to do. Maybe I shouldave that

601
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 3: in the show.

602
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 1: That would be funny at least part of it.

603
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,159
Speaker 3: People are gonna like, I'm sorry, I'm just sorry for

604
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 3: your ear drums everybody right now. But this is a

605
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 3: nice emergency. If you know a good exterminator in the

606
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 3: New York City area, please give me a call. I digress.

607
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 3: So anyway, yeah, so I was gonna take a break

608
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 3: from haters on Gabby Douglas. Oh so she did not.

609
00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 3: She deigned to not put her hand over her chest

610
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 3: during the national anthem while at the Olympics, and people

611
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 3: just dragged her and said she was unpatriotic, blah blah blah,

612
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 3: her mother and her finally like, you know, her mother,

613
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,959
Speaker 3: of course, Mama Bear, Mama Bears cannot hold back. So

614
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 3: her mom, her mom took to the media and was like, listen,

615
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 3: not only is my father like a two time Vietnam

616
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,960
Speaker 3: War veteran, and we have strong military ties, you know,

617
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 3: strong family ties to the military. It was highly you know,

618
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 3: rude and insulting for people to challenge our patriotism and

619
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 3: like and not just that, but like making fun of

620
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 3: Gabby's hair, which has been like has been a thing

621
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 3: since the last Olympics. And I'm just like, what is

622
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 3: it going to take for like these young women to

623
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 3: get some respect, you know, like stop trying to take

624
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 3: stuff away from them, you know, whether it's because she's

625
00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 3: young or black or talented, Like, it's just not fair.

626
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 3: So on her, I take a break.

627
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 2: I just I also because she's supposed to be this

628
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 2: is supposed to be one of the happiest times of

629
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,479
Speaker 2: her life. She's accomplished so much, and it's hard, you know,

630
00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 2: even when you do well, it's so hard to kind

631
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 2: of like close yourself off from like, you know, people

632
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 2: doing stuff like that because you're a human being.

633
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: I feel.

634
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,120
Speaker 2: I just wish I could give her big hug and

635
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 2: be like, Girl, like you don't don't use this amazing

636
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,959
Speaker 2: time in your life to think about those people who

637
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 2: are being hurtful. Although I know it's hard that you

638
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 2: are doing something that literally not even one percent of

639
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 2: the population could attempt, you know, And.

640
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 1: So just focusing on that and just rocking out. You're awesome.

641
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: And if you're on the Twitter is brandan ambish, just

642
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 3: do the hashtag we love you Gabby. That's what I

643
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 3: don't yeah, to show her your love because for every

644
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 3: hater out there, there's a million people who love you

645
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 3: who are not on Twitter exactly. And I just feel

646
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 3: bad that she tries. She works so hard. She's crying

647
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 3: at the Olympics when it should be just like this

648
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 3: amazing moment for her. Yeah, people just suck sometimes.

649
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 2: So Girl was away with her her mom on a

650
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 2: road trip. I said, Supergirl had like the best summer ever.

651
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 2: She went to California, she did this road trip. She

652
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 2: did so many amazing things at nine. Can you imagine

653
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,280

693
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:06,880

694
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 3: wayside in life.

695
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: Are there any questions or do you want to just

696
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 1: do a quick tip?

697
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 3: I do have a quick question from a reader, So

698
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 3: she has an auto loan question and I want to

699
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 3: answer it. Car loans I feel like more well, I

700
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 3: don't feel I know. Study show Stata data shows that

701
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 3: the number of people who are getting stuck with high

702
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 3: interest car loans is out of control. Car loans are

703
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 3: easier than ever to get, which is awesome, but people

704
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 3: often find their way. We've talked about this before, getting

705
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:47,320
Speaker 3: stuck with like double digit interest rate loans. So we

706
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 3: had a question from a reader named Ronie and she says,

707
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 3: I have a car loan of twenty two thousand dollars

708
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 3: on a twenty fourteen jeep Cherokeree, Cherokee. What am I saying? Cherokee?

709
00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 3: I pay six hundred dollars a month for this slow

710
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 3: I'm a single mother with two sons. My question is

711
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 3: how can I pay off or get rid of this

712
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 3: SUV note? I want to start saving for a home

713
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 3: for my boys while living and pinked oh. I want

714
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 3: to start saving for a home, and I'm also working

715
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 3: on paying tuition for my eighteen year old son. I

716
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 3: also have a little bit of credit card debt and

717
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 3: about seventy five thousand dollars worth of student loan debt.

718
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 3: I mean, this woman could be like the picture of

719
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:27,360
Speaker 3: America right now, with you know, auto loan debt and

720
00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 3: student loan debt stressing her out even more than the

721
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 3: mortgage debt. Like, it's a lot going on. And so

722
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 3: to answer her question, it's difficult. It's hard to answer

723
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 3: the question. I actually went back to her and had

724
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 3: to ask, you know, a little bit about her credit

725
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 3: history and sort of found out their credit isn't too great.

726
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 3: And when that happens, people are afraid of what like,

727
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 3: they're afraid of not getting a proofer a loan, so

728
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 3: they don't go to a bank. They go to the

729
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,680
Speaker 3: car dealership and they walk in and they say, hey,

730
00:33:57,760 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 3: you know, my credit's not so good, I probably can't

731
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 3: or something nice, and the auto dealers like, oh, I'm

732
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 3: your best friend. We're just friends here like, oh, we

733
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 3: can get you a great deal in a car. We're

734
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 3: definitely gonna get approved one hundred percent. We have this

735
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 3: financing department back here. Sit down with my friend Joseph.

736
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 3: He's gonna hook you up. And next thing you know,

737
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 3: you walk out like this woman did, with an eighteen

738
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 3: percent car note, which is like four times, no, not

739
00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:26,280
Speaker 3: five times more than typical interest rates on car loans.

740
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 3: So unfortunately, the best, the best advice for people listening,

741
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,200
Speaker 3: if you haven't found yourself in this situation yet, it's

742
00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 3: just like, don't put yourself in that situation. Always shop

743
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 3: around for a car loan. Yes, never go with a

744
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 3: dealer's financing unless he's like your godfather and he's say

745
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 3: he's like, you know, giving you a one percent deal

746
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 3: or something like that. But it's almost always a bad deal,

747
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:56,319
Speaker 3: always because they know you're desperate and they know you're insecure, and.

748
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 2: You don't and you don't have to. Like I'll say this,

749
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 2: so super super Mom, that's Supergirl's mother.

750
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 1: I remember she wanted a car.

751
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,200
Speaker 2: Honestly, the car that she has just kept breaking down

752
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 2: and she was like, oh, I want a car. She

753
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 2: just got herself in twenty sixteen, Hana or something or other.

754
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,359
Speaker 2: But what happened when I, like when I first started

755
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 2: dating Superman, you know, we mad actually really like herd

756
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 2: we're both libras, and we talked about finances and she

757
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 2: became a DreamCatcher. She started raising her credit score, she

758
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 2: raised it one hundred points in the last few months,

759
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,919
Speaker 2: and we talked about, like, you know, she really wanted

760
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:31,480
Speaker 2: a car, and I said, you know, you should make

761
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,719
Speaker 2: sure you join a credit union, come with your own financing.

762
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,280
Speaker 2: And so it took some time, but she was able

763
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 2: to do so. Now her interest rate is not definitely

764
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 2: it's not like one or two percent, but it's not eighteen.

765
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,200
Speaker 2: And so she was able to get her financing from

766
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 2: her from her credit union and bring it to the

767
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,879
Speaker 2: whatever dealership that she desired and was able to get

768
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 2: her car. And so you don't have to have perfect

769
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 2: credit in order to do so, you know, should you

770
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,640
Speaker 2: take some time to raise your credits care certainly, but

771
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 2: even now her credit's not perfect, it's just better, and

772
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 2: she's better.

773
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 1: I could just tell she's so proud.

774
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 2: Of herself, like, and I'm proud of her, you know,

775
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 2: to like taking the time raising your credit score in

776
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,840
Speaker 2: a few months, doing the research, going to apply for

777
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 2: a loan responsibly and getting it and then able to

778
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 2: being able to get the car that you really wanted,

779
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 2: because she's like, I've always had used cars.

780
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 1: They're always you know, they're always breaking down, and now

781
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:26,120
Speaker 1: I'm able to get this car and it's mind.

782
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 2: So that's what I would say, is that, like, you know,

783
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 2: start with a credit union, and if you're not a member,

784
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 2: you should join.

785
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 1: Everyone should have to me.

786
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 3: You don't always have to be a member. Oh really,

787
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 3: you know there are credit unions. Pen fed is one, listen,

788
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 3: I know. I talk about magnifying money a lot, but

789
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 3: you have I'm gonna post this in the in the

790
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 3: blog post on brownmission dot com today, but we have

791
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 3: an auto loan refinancing tool where you can put in

792
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 3: what kind of loan you need and how much and

793
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:57,879
Speaker 3: a lot of the best rates are offered by credit

794
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 3: unions and you do not have to be a member.

795
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,800
Speaker 1: That's awesome. I did not know that it's true, not

796
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:04,359
Speaker 1: for all of them.

797
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,800
Speaker 3: For many, yes, but not for all. A lot of

798
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,960
Speaker 3: credit unions are lowering their standards a little bit to

799
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 3: allow more people to to take advantage of their low rates.

800
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 3: But absolutely totally support hashtag indorse the credit union and

801
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 3: you can't you may you know, if you have bad credit,

802
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,359
Speaker 3: refinancing may not be a possibility. Because you do it's

803
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:25,840
Speaker 3: like taking out another loan. So you have to have

804
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 3: pretty decent credit to get qualified.

805
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 1: You know.

806
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 3: Sometimes dealers will try and talk you into rolling your

807
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,959
Speaker 3: loan over into a new somebody who wrote, we do trap,

808
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 3: huge trap.

809
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 1: Don't don't do it. I said, don't do it, girl,

810
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: don't do it.

811
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 2: She's like yeah, because I they said we could get

812
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 2: a better card and I was like, girls, so you're

813
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 2: gonna owe you'd be paying for one, but owing for two.

814
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 1: Don't do it.

815
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 3: It's like just like almost doubling the debt you already have. Yes,

816
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,919
Speaker 3: you can ask to renegotiate. Not very likely it can happen,

817
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,000
Speaker 3: but it's worth a try, and if it comes down

818
00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 3: to it. Sometimes, you know, the experts I talked to

819
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,440
Speaker 3: when I was doing a story on this said, sometimes

820
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,239
Speaker 3: you just want to cut your losses, sell the car,

821
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:07,240
Speaker 3: and start fresh.

822
00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,839
Speaker 2: That's exactly what Superman did. When I first met him.

823
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 2: He had this huge truck. He loved it, loved it,

824
00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 2: loved it. His his payment was literally rent. I was like,

825
00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:20,319
Speaker 2: who yo, GMC played you brother, And so he ended

826
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:20,880
Speaker 2: up doing that.

827
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 1: He ended up.

828
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,239
Speaker 2: He actually went what did he do? Yes, he sold

829
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 2: the truck. He sold it and just started from scratch over.

830
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 2: And he actually went to the way he was able

831
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 2: to do it.

832
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, these people areking me crazy. Sorry Mandy.

833
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 3: The opposit tipany hot hotline blaying.

834
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 2: And what I what I what I had him do

835
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 2: was he actually went to his credit union, got a

836
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 2: loan to pay it off while you know, and that

837
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 2: way at least his interest rate was way lower, and

838
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 2: then was able to sell it. And so start from scratching.

839
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 2: As a result, he's debt free. Now you know that

840
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:57,960
Speaker 2: was really like that in some credit card that which

841
00:38:57,960 --> 00:38:59,520
Speaker 2: he since paid off. So he's debt free as a

842
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 2: result of making those choice. At first he thought it

843
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,320
Speaker 2: was like evil, girlfriend, look what you're making me do.

844
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:06,399
Speaker 2: And now his credit score, which was a five something

845
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:07,800
Speaker 2: when I met him, is a seven.

846
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,240
Speaker 3: Fifty man, and I'm like, he upgraded?

847
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 2: What?

848
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you're welcome. So that means my ring right,

849
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: I just.

850
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:15,560
Speaker 3: Picture like a little walm with like a star on

851
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 3: the end going dang babity bobbity boop, better credit. That

852
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 3: was the next step though. Yeah, so when you just

853
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:24,959
Speaker 3: to reiterate, when you sell your car, you're probably gonna,

854
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 3: you know, use whatever you get from the car to

855
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,880
Speaker 3: pay off a chunk of the loan. Then you'll have

856
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 3: leftover so you can then apply for a personal loan

857
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 3: through a credit union, which is an amazing place to start.

858
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 3: And I'll put another link to our personal loan, Magnified

859
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 3: Money's personal loan site. And again, like Magnified Money is

860
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 3: awesome because it's all unbiased advice. We just do all

861
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 3: the hard work for you. Blah blah, blah, it sounds

862
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 3: like a sales pitch, but it's awesome and you can

863
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 3: use that personal loan to pay off whatever balance you

864
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:53,560
Speaker 3: have and then start free Superman method.

865
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,520
Speaker 1: Exactly where's that credit score?

866
00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 2: And then paying off the truck in full like that

867
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 2: was one of the things that helps to really significantly

868
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 2: raise his credit score because he paid down a huge

869
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 2: amount of debt.

870
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,759

Speaker 3: You know, when people I actually want to know exactly, and.

930
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,440
Speaker 1: So do a little dip.

931
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 2: That's that's your homework till next time, do a little

932
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,800
Speaker 2: a little bit more of a deep dive with somebody

933
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 2: that you care about and taking the time to just say, no,

934
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 2: how are you?

935
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 1: Actually is everything really okay?

936
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: And you know because sometimes, like you said, if someone

937
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,239
Speaker 2: asked me, hey, Tippy, how are you, I always say fine.

938
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:38,560
Speaker 1: Because I know that's what they mean.

939
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 2: Like they just it's just a greeting, not that they

940
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 2: really want to know, not because anything's wrong just because.

941
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 2: But if someone asks sincerely, how are you really doing,

942
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 2: then they get a different answer. So I challenge you

943
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:50,279

945
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:55,400
