That's okay, great, So so I'm 0:06:18.880 --> 0:06:22.400 the only idiot here. But you said, my mama told. 0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:28.040 Me never played with silver toys when there's lightning outside 0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:36.120 or you will be struck down exactly. So you know, 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.360 growing up as we probably did, we're in the same generation. 0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:42.560 You know, action figures were a big part of our life. 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:44.400 Ye I'm saying. We didn't have We didn't have iPads 0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:47.480 and stuff like that. We had cartoon we played outside, 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:50.680 we had action figures. So at the time that I 0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:54.080 that I learned of this conspiracy theory, I had a Shredder, 0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:56.680 which was my prize villain. I was a big Turtles fan, 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.359 you know, I had. I had a couple of legit 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:02.200 Turtles and I ain't always get the actual toys. I 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:05.760 got versions of them, you know, like you know, like 0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:07.640 I remember one year asked my dad for the Batman 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:09.680 coop with with you know what I'm saying, And it 0:07:09.720 --> 0:07:12.160 came with Batman, and he just got me the coop. 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.239 It was in the box and the Batman was gone, 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:17.600 and I was like, what happened to the Batman? He 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.240 was like a kid in Africa. We wouldn't have nothing. 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:23.600 I was like, but he didn't just buy like a 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.960 coop Batman came in that box. Somebody had opened it 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:29.720 and taken the Batman out. And then somehow my dad 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:31.720 just got came in the possession of the coop, but 0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:33.600 I was I have nobody to put in the in 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:35.320 the coop, so I just had a random g I 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.360 Joe man in the coop. It just didn't hit the same. 0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:39.160 He was just hanging out in the back of it. 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:40.800 Came out and being like, y'all ain't about to throw 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:44.200 this away, right, That's good because I know a boy 0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:45.520 who might like this quite a bit. 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:49.280 The Salvation Army, Christmas gifts, you know whatever it was. 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:51.360 So he gave me like half of what I wanted. 0:07:51.720 --> 0:07:54.360 But at this time I had, you know, I had 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:55.840 mostly off brand men. 0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:58.600 We called him men. I had mostly off brand men. 0:07:58.640 --> 0:07:59.200 Just just. 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:05.480 Legally you had to call them men, not a figure. 0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:08.440 And saw that toys or rust are KB toys. They 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:10.760 saw that place that don't even sell toys. You know 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:13.040 what I'm saying, Oh yeah, swap the g I Jojo 0:08:13.160 --> 0:08:18.040 g I exactly. They adjason right. So but this time 0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:20.200 I had actually, if I think for like a birthday, 0:08:20.400 --> 0:08:23.400 I had like four of the actual turtles and an 0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:26.200 actual shredder. So these were like the Krim Dela Crim 0:08:26.240 --> 0:08:28.600 of my toys. I play with them every day. So 0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:29.960 I'm playing with them. You know what I'm saying, it's 0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:32.439 a lightning storm and the power is out. So I'm 0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:33.839 really like, oh, this is you know what I'm saying. 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:35.040 I'm playing with these actual figures. 0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:35.320 Right. 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.240 So my mom comes in and I got Shredder in 0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:38.679 my right hand. Never I don't know why this is 0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:41.720 such a vivid memory, Maybe because I was so confused 0:08:41.760 --> 0:08:42.800 by what she was saying. 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:45.000 And she was like, she's like, what are you doing? 0:08:45.040 --> 0:08:47.440 Boy? But put that down. You know you can't play 0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:50.160 with no silver toy. You're gonna get struck down by lightning. 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:54.240 And I looked at the shredder and I'm like, this 0:08:54.320 --> 0:08:58.560 is plastic. First of all, this is not And I 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:01.200 was not, like I've always been kind of a smart person. 0:09:01.240 --> 0:09:03.839 I'm in my hand. I was young enough to know 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:10.559 that this cannot cannot conduct electricity at all? There is 0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:13.120 and his shredder stuff was coming off right, you know what, 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:16.559 sing I played with the toy for real. It was 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:18.079 like brown. You know what I'm saying, It's like the 0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:19.840 color of the skin under there. 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:22.160 You get you get shredder in the bathtub one too 0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:23.960 many times and that ain't shredder no more. 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.440 It was just they were putting a lot of you know, 0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:30.360 high quality stuff into these. 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:36.200 Man that's just a Japanese man in football year that ain't. 0:09:36.360 --> 0:09:39.880 Yeah, yeah, wow, I did not know that. 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:40.560 Yeah. 0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:42.680 And the lore. I think there's a lot of lore 0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:46.280 in Ninja Turtles about where Shredder and Splinter come from, 0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:50.559 some of which suggests that they are connected directly, in 0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:52.400 some of which they didn't know each other at all, 0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:57.280 but always Shredder was like a big mob guy in 0:09:57.400 --> 0:10:01.760 Japan that then finds its way in to uh, New York. 0:10:01.600 --> 0:10:04.240 Somehow or something.

She was just genuinely concerned, like put 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:37.080 this and I'm like, I'm inside the house. The windows 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:38.920 are closed.

I picked up like rock 0:11:07.280 --> 0:11:08.120 steady and bebop. 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:09.400 She was like, all, I know that. You know. 0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:12.120 Those are purple. 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:16.720 You know those a decent lightning fearing man. Go ahead, 0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:19.240 enjoy yourself in the dark. 0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:22.240 But I just like, b I remember, I never bought 0:11:22.320 --> 0:11:24.680 into it, like I don't have foil, I don't have 0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:28.480 a fork. This is a plastic man with more plastic 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:31.200 that is just colored to look like silver. 0:11:31.679 --> 0:11:32.400 You know what I'm saying. 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:35.319 I can't die. And I never heard no other parents 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:37.520 say that. That was the first. It's actually interesting that 0:11:37.559 --> 0:11:39.839 Bory had heard that because I wasn't like at the 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:41.400 other friend's house and they were like, man, you know 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:42.960 what I'm saying. Mone was on that, Like, I never 0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:46.199 heard that before or from anybody else. But it's good 0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:49.000 to know that that it's not that unusual. 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:52.280 I've heard it just with metal in general, silver and specific. 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:55.079 I had just heard it in metal, don't be fucking around. 0:11:55.160 --> 0:11:57.360 Oh got it, Yeah, lightning outside. 0:11:57.440 --> 0:11:59.600 I think that's what I had heard as well, is like, 0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:02.360 you can't like be running around with forks when you 0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:04.480 when it's lightning outside. 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.720 Because to be completely honest, I don't have any silver 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:09.520 in the house now, I'm thirty six years old, Like 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:10.160 I don't. 0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:12.720 Have We got to get you some silver. 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:16.840 Oh, you're not so much silverer right now. You got 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:18.120 so much silver, you. 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:20.319 Got somebody you gotta have silver. 0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:20.720 In your house. 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:24.720 You I don't believe you. 0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:32.080 No, I don't have an ounce of silver exactly. Trust Yeah, 0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:34.560 you're going crazy, you're doing it. 0:12:36.160 --> 0:12:36.360 Yeah. 0:12:36.400 --> 0:12:41.199 I had always heard metal, like avoid obviously metal objects 0:12:41.200 --> 0:12:45.880 holding metal during lightning scums. I had never heard silver specifically, 0:12:46.240 --> 0:12:49.920 and I certainly had never then spread that out to 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:54.880 even silver appearing objects. Do you think that silver there 0:12:54.960 --> 0:12:57.920 was a specific reasoning for silver for your mom. 0:12:58.520 --> 0:13:01.880 You know, it's funny that don't make sense. I feel 0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.839 like maybe through the grape vine somebody said metal when 0:13:04.880 --> 0:13:07.559 she just was like, silver's metal. I'm just gonna take 0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:11.680 the metal part out on the silver because I've never 0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:14.240 questioned that part until today. Metal. I would have believed 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:15.880 her even and the thing I think it was messed 0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:19.280 with me is the toy was plastic. So I was 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:22.240 just like, this doesn't make any sense. But you know, 0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:26.600 how do black parents learn anything? Right? Like, I'm the 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.680 Internet's really interesting because I'm realizing, like there's this meme 0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:31.320 that goes vie everyone to the while. It's like if 0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:33.599 you had this cover you was black, and it's like 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:36.600 a blanket I recognize, And I'm like, how did so 0:13:36.679 --> 0:13:40.760 many black Where was this manufactured? Like so, I feel 0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:44.120 like that information came through like that, like the way 0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:48.000 those cookies became tens for like so and like who 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:51.080 makes Who's the first person that does that? Why do 0:13:51.160 --> 0:13:53.400 we black people so many of us have that shared 0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:56.360 experience that you know, there's no cookies in the cookie team, 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:59.400 but there's like soeing equipment or whatever. But I think 0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:00.960 it was one of those things, Like I don't know 0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:03.800 how this information got around, but. 0:14:04.040 --> 0:14:09.120 It does speak to the fact that, like to some extent, 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:12.680 the black community that we refer to did exist in 0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:16.120 a much more active way when we were kids and 0:14:16.240 --> 0:14:18.920 obviously when our parents were kids and all of that shit, 0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:21.760 in part because they were all learning from the same 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:26.600 six like templates of people where it's like everybody just 0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:29.640 learned the same six things, so we are in fact 0:14:29.760 --> 0:14:33.040 a community, and now the Internet sort of disrupts the 0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:36.080 ability for that to even be true anything, you know 0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:36.360 what I mean? 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:37.160 Yeah, for sure. 0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:39.320 I feel like a lot of my life I've got, 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:41.800 I've taken so much word is back from just like 0:14:42.520 --> 0:14:44.440 a dude sitting on the hood of a car. 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:49.960 Yeah, it has a car. 0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:53.120 I guess the confidence is key man man. 0:14:53.720 --> 0:14:54.000 Yeah. 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:57.120 I remember my mom once told me that, uh, that 0:14:57.160 --> 0:15:00.480 Aretha Franklin's son had run off with what his name, 0:15:00.800 --> 0:15:04.280 that he was the army dude in fucking different world. 0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:07.040 And I can't remember his fucking name now, but he's 0:15:07.040 --> 0:15:08.480 a very fantastic actor. 0:15:11.800 --> 0:15:12.680 Louis James. 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:15.720 Yeah, yes, mister. 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:19.560 Goddamn, I'm gonna be dude. 0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:24.280 Yeah, he was in Fargo season five. Glenn Turman, Yes, 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:27.920 Glynn Turman. My mom told me for years that Glenn 0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:31.240 Turman had had like a secret affair with Aretha franklin son. 0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:34.720 They had run off together, and and that was why 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:36.960 her and Glenn Turman didn't make it and all this 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:40.440 ship and I've never even looked up to verify if 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:42.640 there's any truth to that, and I've never heard anyone 0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:44.160 else make that claim. 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:46.600 It was just my mom saying it, did you come home? 0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:50.280 We believed everybody was related. We were one of those 0:15:50.800 --> 0:15:56.440 like take Ali was for sure, Mouhammed Ali's daughter. What 0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:58.920 I quoted that too recently? 0:16:01.040 --> 0:16:03.600 Yeah, And they look it up and you're like, oh, no, 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:04.240 I don't think so. 0:16:04.520 --> 0:16:06.600 I think it's because I was like, well, there's not 0:16:06.640 --> 0:16:08.080 that many famous black people. 0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:09.560 They must be relating. 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:12.680 Half down the line. I got to connect someone at 0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:16.160 some point. There's a lot of Smith's, a lot of Jackson. 0:16:18.440 --> 0:16:19.920 Is that crazy? 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:21.240 Oh my god? 0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:25.680 So so your mom says this to you, You agree 0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:28.920 to disagree, but you put down the shredder. Have you 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:32.600 carried any of this onward in your life? Have you 0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:38.360 since been like weirdly superstitious or nervous around silver objects 0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:42.440 in a lightning storm despite what you know logically to 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:43.680 be untrue inside of this. 0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:45.000 No, absolutely not. 0:16:45.160 --> 0:16:51.680 I think, as hard as it is to admit, I 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:55.160 didn't believe my mom. I just could not defy her. 0:16:55.520 --> 0:16:57.880 And I think those are two separate things. Oh, in 0:16:57.920 --> 0:16:59.800 my mind, I was just like, this is just not true. 0:16:59.840 --> 0:17:02.840 But you know, small black children didn't really have a voice. 0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:05.800 Growing up the way we we did, we really couldn't 0:17:05.880 --> 0:17:09.960 question our parents. But I remember being like, this is 0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:11.680 just not true. And if she weren't here, I would 0:17:11.720 --> 0:17:13.600 be playing with this, and if I got struck by lightning, 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:14.960 I would have been really surprised like that. 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:18.040 It's crazy. Let me tell you, as. 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:20.360 Far as my family, large black men don't have much 0:17:20.359 --> 0:17:24.000 of a voice. I'm still not pushing the line on things. 0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:29.080 She says, Really, she's listening, she had a heart, she's 0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:30.000 from a different country. 0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:32.680 I just, yeah, I don't know. Maybe that's maybe they 0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:34.120 are sneaky. I don't. 0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:42.960 Oh my god, my mom just tried to FaceTime me. 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:48.679 That's you fucked up on it, bro on it. 0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:51.719 Baby girl figured out how to get a feed and 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:55.840 she's she's listening to her exactly what you said. 0:17:55.960 --> 0:18:05.800 Yeah, she's listening.
