00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: This is from grewten eighty eight, who says Ride and

67
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: Karen five stars. I've been listening to this podcast for

68
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 1: years and spreading the gospel of Rod and Karen. Average

69
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 1: chance I get TVGVT is like a tall glass of

70
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 1: water from that jug. And your grandmother mother's a fridge, superb.

71
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. And you know you gotta go

72
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: in your grandmama fridge. You gotta be careful. You can't

73
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 1: go in there when she sleep or two late at night,

74
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: because my grandma used to could hear the fridge open

75
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: all the way from the back room. No matter how

76
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: late you go, it be three in the morning. She

77
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: gets calls, I got damn FRIDERI You're like, oh, how

78
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 1: does she even know? I thought I was suspended from

79
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 1: the ceiling like Tom Cruise. She could hear it. All right,

80
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: let's go to the comments on the website. Seventeen thirty

81
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,600
Speaker 1: one Edify Yourself was our feedback episode. We did get

82
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: a couple of comments from a couple of listeners and

83
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 1: we appreciate y'all they do that we do. Easy way

84
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: to leave a comment go to the black out hoo

85
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: Toils dot com. All over the site, we post a

86

Speaker 1: can just leave comments. JJ says, thank you for opening

88
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: up the dialogue about redefining gender roles. Sometimes we need

89
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: to hit that reset, but that reset button when things

90
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: go around. Thanks again for putting this topic on the table,

91
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 1: no doubt, no doubt. Thank you. Seem like it's been

92
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: coming up a lot lately, and just the stuff I've

93
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,600
Speaker 1: been looking at and seeing, or maybe it's just the

94
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: way I'm seeing the world lately, but there's just so

95
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: much stuff where it's like this doesn't have to be

96
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: as bad as it is, but a lot of the

97
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 1: damage is just societal.

98
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, and people picture those women men roles and just

99
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,359
Speaker 4: I mean, it's just stupid in my opinion, Like a

100
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 4: lot of the arguments that we see, they constantly come

101
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 4: up to be told because because of insecurities. And when

102
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 4: you say that, everybody, I think insecurity is always a

103
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 4: bad thing. In Secuity ain't always a bad thing. It's

104
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 4: security is knowing yourself, you know, so you know yourself

105
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 4: and so you know these certain topics make you feel

106
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 4: a certain way, which is fine. But it's one of

107
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 4: those things where for some people, every time it comes up,

108
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 4: they rehash that insecurity and put it out in time,

109
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 4: like like the shit is brand new. No, you know,

110
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 4: it ain't new to none of us, and whatever it is,

111
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 4: most of us has felt it in some way, shape,

112
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 4: form or fashion, particularly if you're straight.

113
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 2: When it comes from hurting pain from opposite sex.

114
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: Tyl W fourty two says how Rod and Karen it

115
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: was so funny when Rod mentioned the Manna's ice cream.

116
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: I made the exact same sound as Karen, pure revulsion, nasty.

117
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: I purchased the Book of the Month as soon as

118
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 1: it was introduced, and after I lost the chat chatroom giveaway.

119
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 1: But come on, nine nonsense, it's doable. I knew it

120
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 1: would be ratchet, but I wasn't prepared for how ratchet.

121
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: But I am committed. I think I'm at least twenty

122
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 1: five percent in. I have to see how this ends.

123
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: Looking forward to the booklut over show we still reading

124
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 1: through it. Also. I recently went to a very special

125
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: comedy show and panel discussion and titled Sisters of Comedy

126
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,360
Speaker 1: at the Schomberg Center in New York City. Since the

127
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: comedy is a series, a Gunda a Gunda Oko has

128
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: curated to feature women of color in comedy shows, primarily

129
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 1: at Caroline's Comedy Club in New York City. But this

130
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: night was so special. What got me there was my

131
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: girl Yamanika, who is just completely amazing. But let me

132
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: talk about the venue first. The Shamberg is located in Harlem,

133
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,080
Speaker 1: and it's part of the New York Public Library group

134
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: of libraries. But they always have exhibits there. You can

135
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: visit at any time, similar to museums at many events.

136
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 1: This was the first time I went there. I ad

137
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: met I felt a little weird at first, as I

138
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: was the only white person I could see, only because

139
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: I have pretty much never experienced that in my life. Yeah,

140
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: welcome to a club, buddy. That's how it is, man.

141
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: You just show up and you're like, I think I'm

142
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: the only black person in here. Hope not on the menu,

143
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: you know, right. I admit that there was a point

144
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: during Karen's retelling of her Wonderful Jamaica vacation where she

145
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 1: said something like, and I'm paraphrasing if I get it wrong,

146
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: please correct me. It was so good not that have

147
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: to deal with white people for a week. I was

148
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: a little but hurt immediately, but within minutes I realized

149
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: what you meant. You don't have to code switch, you

150
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about Becky getting mad and call

151
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: it now one one just to start, I really wish

152
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: I was exaggerating, but this is America. Yeah, man, I

153
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: mean look like I can't even really apologize for it

154
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: because I don't feel sorry about it. But we get

155
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,079
Speaker 1: so few chances as black people to be in situations

156
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: where we're just free to be ourselves. You know, this

157
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 1: podcast is kind of one of them. You know, for

158
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 1: a lot of people. That's why we resonate with people

159
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 1: where they're like, I'm in Minnesota and there's no other

160
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,840
Speaker 1: black people, But you guys make me feel sane, y'all,

161
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:53,319
Speaker 1: feel like friends in my head, y'all, because a lot

162
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 1: of times it's like we keep making these fucking compromises,

163
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: you know, like I want to be in a room

164
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: where I can say the N word, and because people

165
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,959
Speaker 1: are my brothers and sisters in there, they don't feel

166
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 1: a way about it, or if they do feel a

167
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 1: way about it. They understand that it's part of our

168
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 1: cultural vernacular and they don't need to like break it down,

169
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: you know, like let me tell you what's wrong with

170
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 1: that word.

171
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 5: Brother.

172
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 1: If I can't say it, watch you. You know, I

173
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: don't have to have those talks or I.

174
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 4: Don't have to do with your hurt feelings every time

175
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 4: I say something that that you might feel is politically

176
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 4: incorrect or something is foreign to you.

177
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody's worry about touching somebody's hair without permission. Nobody's uh,

178
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 1: you know, and they're still like different stuff within black spears.

179
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: But it's just one layer off of just comfortableness, you know, right.

180
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 4: And it's like you say, it's a constantly compromise, because

181
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 4: the thing is, white people here in America don't have

182
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 4: to compromise a goddamn thing.

183
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,679
Speaker 2: Everybody else has to compromise.

184
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 4: You have to compromise or if you won't function in

185
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 4: this white ass world. Yeah, there's certain spaces where it's

186
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 4: for black women and the energy of a man can

187
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 4: kind of ruin or change the space. And I try

188
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 4: to be aware of that as a man, you know,

189
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 4: where it's like, oh, this thing is for these sisters,

190
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 4: they're working on this thing. They're doing that.

191
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: Cool. Let me get out of y'alls hair, y'all do

192
00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: your think, you know, hollering me if you need me,

193
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna be way over here kicking it. You know.

194
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: I don't need to be up in the spot trying

195
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 1: to put my opinion in there or whatever. And honestly,

196
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: I feel bad when people are uncomfortable around me, you know,

197
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: for any reason. So yeah, I completely understand, you know,

198
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: that feeling that you know Karen was talking about on

199
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: the Jamaica trip.

200
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's also one of the things where, like

201
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 4: I said, when it comes to white women individually, it's

202
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 4: a whole thing.

203
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 2: That's a collective. It's another group.

204
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 4: And for most black women, you ran into the fifty

205
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 4: three percent more than you ran into the regular ass

206
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 4: white woman that's trying to mind her fucking business. It's actually,

207
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 4: you know, fighting for your rights and care and love everybody.

208
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 4: Those people exist, and we know they exist, but not

209
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 4: a nine point nine percent of white women you run

210
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 4: into think they're that, but they're not.

211
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: Because the second you say something to a fendim is

212
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: oh my god, or how dare you?

213
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 4: And you're like, I don't want to deal with that

214
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 4: A lot of time just looking at you without knowing you.

215
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 2: We don't know, and because I know, we have to adjust.

216
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: They're not black. It is what it is. It's not

217
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,679
Speaker 1: even a matter. See. The thing is, we always end

218
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 1: up having to explain this shit. But like white people

219
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 1: absolutely know what we're talking about. Because that's the entire

220
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: reason of Republican Party exists. You know, It's the entire

221
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: reason that people vote for Trump. It's the entire reason,

222
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,959
Speaker 1: not all like that, it's the reason that white people

223
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: can feel comfortable saying shit like just because you vote

224
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: for Trump doesn't make you a racist, come on, But

225
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: they feel comfortable saying that because you side with racism

226
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: while not feeling like you're actively promoting racism. Like I

227
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 1: don't have a plan, bro, I don't call anybody nigger.

228
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 1: I don't support you know, violence towards anyone. You know,

229
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 1: that's what you say. But then at the same time,

230
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: you're over there because you feel comfortable, you don't have

231
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: to do too much code which and you have to

232
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 1: worry about who's listening, you know, you know, like there's

233
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: a like whiteness has been doing that in America forever,

234
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: you know, like it is what it is, and maleness

235
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: it's the reason men say shit like locker room talk,

236
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 1: and locker room talk is a bunch of like rape

237
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: culture shit, you know, because there's no women in that room.

238
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: The problem is when you are the majority, or you

239
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: have the majority of power, or you have like privilege,

240
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,480
Speaker 1: when you group up, it's different, it is, and it's

241
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:47,680
Speaker 1: never it's never good for everybody. When people of privilege

242
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: have unchecked spaces where they can congregate, it always ends

243
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: up badly for everybody outside that space, because that's what

244
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: privilege does. It's like, how do we insulate each other,

245
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 1: how do we convince each other? We're right at high

246
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: five and say everything is you know, and it's the

247
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: constant struggle, you know. So, but yeah, that I can

248
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: definitely understand me feeling uncomfortable too, because you were in

249
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:15,160
Speaker 1: a situation where you know that you're This rarely happens,

250
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 1: and for us that's a daily terms. I can go

251
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,840
Speaker 1: to the post office and be the only black person there.

252
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,079
Speaker 1: I can go to a certain restaurant, I'm the only

253
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: black person in there. I go, you know, it just happens.

254
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:25,200
Speaker 1: I always notice it.

255
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, even when we go out to eat, we immediately

256
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 4: notice if we don't need niggas in them.

257
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I always notice it, you know, And I do

258
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 1: worry a lot, especially as of late. I worry about

259
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: you know, who's watching me and deciding that sitting in

260
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: my car while being a black person is something that

261
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 1: no one one should know about, you know. It's just

262
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: something I think about all the time. So yeah, I

263
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 1: mean the difference is you can be in this group

264
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 1: of black people and no one's gonna call the police

265
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 1: on you. You know. Anyway, the night at the Shamberg totally

266
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,839
Speaker 1: reinforce our important to truly beople safe gathering spaces are

267
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: as space is for the community. I don't expect you

268
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,560
Speaker 1: to play this as it is five plus minutes, but

269
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 1: there's a YouTube link about it you can put in

270

294
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:30,640

295
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: don't know and no or the answers you know, I

296
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 1: think I think Karen was talking about growing into loving

297
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: herself and whatnot.

298
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 4: Not an easy pricess, particularly when the world in general,

299
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 4: even family and friends tell you that you're completely worthless.

300
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: Well, the no people, zero zero people said no, that's dope.

301
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: Glad to hear that you too, said yes, five percent

302
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 1: said I don't know, and forty four since said sometimes

303
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: so that that I don't know. And sometimes it's kind

304
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: of the same boat there, so it's actually pretty close.

305
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: It's I'm glad nobody said know though same I picked

306
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: doctor doe status. I picked sometimes because I read this

307
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,640
Speaker 1: as I tried. And it's a process, a long ass process.

308
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,800
Speaker 1: But every enterprise progress is worth It's fucking worth it.

309
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: But Jesus, it can take time. Yeah, I feel you.

310
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, because it's a rebuilding, uh, for people that had

311
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,160
Speaker 4: to come out, you know, come out of the room

312
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 4: with all the self confidence.

313
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 2: Then I can take over the world.

314
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 4: God bless you. But for a lot of us, we

315
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 4: did not get that. So it's a retraining of the mind.

316
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 4: It's a it's a destroying all the things that you

317
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 4: thought were facts and realizing that they were not fact

318
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 4: and realizing that a lot of things you were taught

319
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 4: us a child was false and wrong and realizing that

320
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 4: a lot of the things that you grew up with

321
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:02,680
Speaker 4: was detrimental to you become an adults, you know. And

322
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 4: a lot of times, so many people get to that

323
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,240
Speaker 4: point in a panic and the fear overtakes them because

324
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 4: you look at that shit, and that means your ass

325
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 4: got to fucking change and you don't want to.

326
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,119
Speaker 1: So a lot of people go fuck it.

327
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,920
Speaker 4: I just keep saying, bitches ain't shit, but holes and tricks,

328
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,560
Speaker 4: lick my biles and suck my dick, you know, And

329
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 4: all I keep saying that all men ain't shit, you know,

330
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 4: type of type of thing. And I know that's a

331
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 4: lirib to a song, but I'm just saying, like a

332
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,479
Speaker 4: lot of dudes have a lot of harsh attitudes and

333
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 4: they're just angry at women. Uh, but a lot of

334
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,520
Speaker 4: that stuff has been taught, it's been ingreat like like

335
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 4: like this, your hatred for women didn't come out of nowhere.

336
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 2: It didn't come out of the sky, you know, And

337
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 2: you have to.

338
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,359
Speaker 4: Unlearn shit for everybody if you want to be a

339
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:49,959
Speaker 4: better person.

340
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 2: But a lot of people don't want to be better people.

341
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think also, like loving yourself is just uh,

342
00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: it's hard when you know, you grow up, and especially

343
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 1: as a black person, you just kind of not really

344
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: solidified in a lot of cases as black children, specifically

345
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: our formative years, Like there's a lot of trauma there

346
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 1: for most of us, from each other, from society, from

347
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: schools and teachers, police, all kinds of shit, and then

348
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,520
Speaker 1: people just expect you to just magically one day, like

349
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, hit a certain age and be just

350
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: be this confident person that believes they can do anything

351
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,159
Speaker 1: and to start your own business and do that. And

352
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: there's like a lot of I don't think I can

353
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,400
Speaker 1: do this. I don't know if I can do this?

354
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 1: What's so special about me? You know? I still have

355
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: those moments even doing what I'm doing for a living,

356
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 1: and shit, I still have those moments where I'm like,

357
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,520
Speaker 1: who the fuck wants to hear what I have to say?

358
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: Is the seventy third person to talk about this topic?

359
00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 1: You know? So, and then there's certain people that I

360
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 1: feel like they at least make it seem that they

361
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:58,119
Speaker 1: never even have those questions. Like there's people where you

362
00:18:58,160 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 1: don't even ask for their fucking opinion. They can't wait

363
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: to like hop over you and give it to you. You know,

364
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: whether you want it or not. That level of confidence.

365
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:06,479
Speaker 1: You know. One of the ways I navigate kind of

366
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 1: the Internet is I let leave. I leave a lot

367
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: of people to their own devices, you know, Like if

368
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: I see you on on your page or your Twitter

369
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,960
Speaker 1: or something saying like I like this movie, I don't

370
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,439
Speaker 1: feel like and this is an opportunity for me to

371
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: interject my opinion about the movie, you know, unless we're

372
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: friends already, I'm just like, oh, yeah, that's what that

373
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 1: person thinks. Who the fuck am I? You know, And

374
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 1: when I give an opinion, I don't expect people to

375
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,199
Speaker 1: hop on me in my back about it or whatever,

376
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,439
Speaker 1: because for the most part, I'm just giving my opinion.

377
00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: I'm not special or whatever, you know. But I think

378
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: some of that is also just kind of left over

379
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,560
Speaker 1: shit from being like I'm not that special, I'm nobody.

380
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 1: I'm just a person. Uh, you know, I'm replaceable. Kind

381
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 1: of this is just that feeling that you have, or

382
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: at least I have sometimes, and I think, you know,

383
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: you have to grow into that assuredness, and it takes time,

384
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 1: and it takes a lot of finding a value in yourself,

385
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: and it takes a lot of being like reflective and

386
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: looking at gratitude and absorbing the stuff around you and

387
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: the energy that people put in, because a lot of

388
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: times people will tell you stuff, but if you don't

389
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 1: accept it, it's true. If you don't absorb it, then

390
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: it doesn't stick. And especially when I find that, you know,

391
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: when I observe myself and I realize, oh, I believe

392
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: the bad things about me so much faster than the

393
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: good shit, which is fucked up, you know. So like

394
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: if I have a friend who has a problem, or

395
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 1: we have an argument, or somebody's like always saying something

396
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: like passive aggressive or something to me, that shit sticks.

397
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: But if they're but at the same time, if I

398
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: have people around here like I love you, You're so great,

399
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,400
Speaker 1: You're so awesome, those things will roll off my back

400
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,240
Speaker 1: sometimes and so I have to start holding you know,

401
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 1: I've made a conscious decision, like I'm gonna hold on

402
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: to those things as hard as I hold onto that

403
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: negative shit, and then eventually I'm gonna hold on those

404
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 1: things and learn to let some of the negative shit

405
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 1: go right, because it's not always constructive, it's not always

406
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,199
Speaker 1: from a good place, and a lot of times when

407
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 1: people have a bunch of fucking powers of their own,

408
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 1: and they just go around saying a bunch of negative

409
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: shit about everybody.

410
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:26,280
Speaker 4: Correct so correct, And also particularly for brown people, not

411
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 4: only when it comes to loving yourself. It's hard enough

412
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 4: to just love yourself regardless, but then you love you

413
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 4: have to learn how to love yourself and then to

414
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 4: be told you have to deal with the with racism.

415
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 4: And that's on top of trying to love yourself, loving

416
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 4: yourself wrapped around racism and how racism affects you and

417
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 4: how it affects you loving yourself and trying to break

418
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 4: down those rolls and those barriers, and that's a whole

419
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 4: nothing level.

420
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,360
Speaker 2: On to itself, which almost like like.

421
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 4: A double like a double hit for black people, because

422
00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 4: you go, okay, I love myself. Okay, shit, now you know,

423
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 4: how can I love myself through the mist of racism,

424
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 4: through through through through the midstuff of all these other

425
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 4: factors that aren't on top of me just trying to

426
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 4: love myself just for being a human being. Well, also

427
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 4: some of this stuff about intersectionality and being woke and

428
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 4: all this stuff you learn about your own.

429
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: Privileges, you learn about your own your own things that

430
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,320
Speaker 1: you're just not up on and how it's always a process,

431
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: and you know, and especially the social media aspect of it,

432
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 1: with the way people hide behind a lot of this

433
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: stuff to be like rude to people, to be mean

434
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: to people, and then they have their own issues and shit.

435
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,439
Speaker 1: But it's like, you have to I have to be

436
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: careful the way I navigate it because I don't want

437
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 1: I don't want to be one of these negative people

438
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 1: that are like, I'm black, so I can call you

439
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: and talk to you any fucking way I want to.

440
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to be like that. But then two,

441
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 1: the when people do it to me, it'll stick to me.

442
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 1: Sometimes I'm like, wow, really like you think this, this

443
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 1: and this and okay, and you're having this consciousness of well,

444
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 1: I'm inadequate in this area. I don't know enough about

445
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: this thing. And meanwhile, everybody's inadequate in certain areas. Everybody's

446
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: learning something, and you're just the goal is just to

447
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: kind of be the better than you were yesterday, better

448
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: than you were a minute ago, you know, But people

449
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: really like to see folks get stuck. I think one

450
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: it gives us a sense of superiority, and two, it

451
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: makes it gives people a place the funnel energy into

452
00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 1: to point out how other people aren't perfect or they

453
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 1: don't have something right. But for me, I do it

454
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: to myself. So I'm already on some like Okay, could

455
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 1: I say this better? Could I've done that better? Was

456
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 1: I was this joke? Okay? Was this thing that I thought?

457
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: Was this evaluated thing? You know, I'm checking myself all

458
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 1: the time on certain shit, and you know, sometimes it

459
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: can be detrimental because you're not really existing anymore, and

460
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a person, Like there's a

461
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,919
Speaker 1: fine line between being yourself and these motherfuckers that are

462
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 1: just always on brand. Right, I don't even really know you.

463
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: I just know your brand. You're always on point with everything,

464
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: but it's always like this filtered shit, and I'm like, oh,

465
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: you're not even a fucking human being. I don't know you,

466
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: Like I can't name a detail about you other than

467
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 1: you knew who to say the right thing at this time,

468
00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: and you knew this reference and this thing. And so

469
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 1: I think that is a huge part of and at

470
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 1: least the changes in my life of what loving yourself

471
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 1: has become to me that didn't exist fifteen years ago.

472
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 1: You know, Like these are just things I just would

473
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 1: have been like, well, I think this certain way, and

474
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: I just kind of keep it to myself or I

475
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 1: talk to my friends about it. Now, with social media,

476
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,000
Speaker 1: it's like you're talking to everybody all the time, right,

477
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: you know. Anyway, that was a big tangent. The next

478
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: episode was racist slip up, So Mee says, oh my

479
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 1: goodness to Ski about the Republican Party leader who killed

480
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,919
Speaker 1: his puppy. Took me clean out with Rod as the

481
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 1: ridiculous God and Karen is the unmoved follower. And when

482
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: Karen said, how do I disconnect this line? I screamed,

483
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 1: any chance Rod, Chadwick Bozeman and Ridiculous God can make

484
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 1: a guest appearance on future podcast provide much needed direction

485
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,320
Speaker 1: out he the lines. I don't know next time somebody

486
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: says God made him do something ridiculous, maybe, oh, try

487
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: not to force it too much. But uh yeah, you know,

488
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,920
Speaker 1: I do my limited impressions when I can the poets.

489
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: Have you ever had a racist slip up at work? Yes?

490
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 1: Or no? Karen m.

491
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,399
Speaker 4: Not out loud, like I've been sitting at my desk

492
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 4: and just something happens and I'm like.

493
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: Okay, And then I was like, oh, did I say

494
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 1: that out loud?

495
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 2: But other than that not, I mean, that.

496
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: Would be a racist slip up if you uh.

497
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 4: Not loud enough for nobody here, because honey, I don't

498
00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 4: speak above two dicibles at work anyway.

499
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 1: I personally, I have never had a racist slip up

500
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 1: at work. I don't even know and the most of

501
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 1: mine is nigga. You know that's not really racist though

502
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: we are black, Yeah, but you're in the working environment

503
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 1: so that it's inappropriate for work. That's not the same

504
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,119
Speaker 1: thing as being racist. That's true racist slip up like

505
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: that white woman called that dude the nigger told me.

506
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,199
Speaker 4: I've never had that before and never, never, never. The

00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 2: I'm like, they can.

522
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, they can in one way. They might not be

523
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,400

00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: to other black people.

532
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 2: Correct.

533
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 1: Black people can absolutely be racist in the colloquial sense.

534
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: But everybody likes to get all fucking websters when it

535
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,040
Speaker 1: comes to that ship. They know exactly what people mean.

536
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: Come on, yeah, the man, this black dude is racist

540
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 6: he can't be racis because you need power and you

541
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 6: need systemic prejudice.

542
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: I'm like, you can call him prejudice like nigga that

543
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 1: ain't much better. But you know what he meant when

544
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: he was racist. He said, Chad, get your pencil necked

545
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 1: white ass out of my face for I slap it,

546
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: because you know that's how they think we talked.

547
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 4: But with the point being like you know, he was

548
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 4: picking on whole hand him and seeing all kinds of

549
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,400
Speaker 4: his Spanish incorrectly on purpose.

550
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:12,159
Speaker 1: I had a straight up racist teacher one time. I

551
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: was telling Justin about this on the pregame. The other

552
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: day I was went to an HBCU and he was

553
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 1: racist against this white girl in my class. There was

554
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: white people of the class. I never went to class really,

555
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: I went like once a week, so it was a

556
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: go three times a week and the class is half assed.

557
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: Like the class he would just show a movie for

558
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,640
Speaker 1: like two or three, two or three classes in a row.

559
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 1: He'd just be showing like Bamboozle by Spike Lee.

560
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,720
Speaker 2: And I picked that same class the year after.

561
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,959
Speaker 1: Yep. Yeah, one time I went in class and you know,

562
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: I just happened to I was so lucky in this class.

563
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: I just happened to always show up the day they

564
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,600
Speaker 1: had the pop quiz. I don't know if he just

565
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 1: liked me and kept doing pop quizes only when I

566
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 1: was there or what. But that's how I kept my

567
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: grade up. I show up, it be pop quiz, I

568
00:28:58,160 --> 00:28:59,920
Speaker 1: show up. It's test day, I show up, you know

569
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: like that. But I'm only showing up like once a

570
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,000

Speaker 1: I hate to bother you. And she was a commuter,

573
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: so you know that means like commuters are serious students.

574
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 1: They don't suck around.

575
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,719

615
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 1: with tenure who gave no fucks. He had a bit

616
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: for years, he had a walking assistant because at all

617
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: times because he yeah, he was like legally blind and shit.

618
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 1: This old black man was like, I lived my life

619
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 1: to get to this point where I give white people

620
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: these So number one, ain't nothing you can do about it? Yeah,

621
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: that was number one. Number two that was when I

622
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 1: realized how insidious racism was, and that racism isn't about

623
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: the inherent evilness of whiteness or the inherent goodness and

624
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 1: virtualness virtuousness of marginalized people. What racism and all the

625
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 1: other isms is really about is the people that are comfortable.

626
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: And that's what I became in that moment because I said,

627
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: I'm not confronting him for shit, I got my B plus,

628
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 1: what is the problem. I know you eighteen nineteen years

629
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 1: old became I became a white woman. I became a

630
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: white woman of color so fast, and my mother fucking listen.

631
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 1: I yeah, I was like eighteen maybe night, young, right, man,

632
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: This older white woman was like, yeah, we go up

633
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:09,200
Speaker 1: there and talk to them together.

634
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 2: I'm like, we ain't going together.

635
00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: What was we? You mean long rangels? This ain't ain't

636
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 1: no we boo. You need to go up there and

637
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: fight for your grade. Man. She went up there to

638
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: confront him. Man. She looked back at me.

639
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:21,239
Speaker 4: Man.

640
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: I was packing my shit up, walking out the door, like, well,

641
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:27,680
Speaker 1: see you next week, right. And then I stopped sitting

642
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: next to her in class because I was like, this

643
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: motherfucker trying to start the revolution, Like I'm gonna go

644
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: to the dean of a minute, we can talk to

645
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: the dean. I was like, you go ahead up there,

646
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 1: good luck, ma'am. Right, mayo crusade work. And then that's

647
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,720
Speaker 1: when I realized how racism works. That was I was

648
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 1: only nineteen. But then I realized, like, oh, I've been

649
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 1: looking at racism all wrong. I've been thinking it's like

650
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: a Spike Lee movie where all the the white people

651
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: are sitting around like Niggas and Jews. I fucking hate them.

652
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 1: But it's not that it's it's subtle. It's what I

653
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 1: got a name, you know. That's that's racism. That racism is.

654
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,640
Speaker 1: I don't know why the negroes keep getting bad grades,

655
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:06,239
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna take this a you know. But of

656
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 1: course the you know, the different, the main differences. At

657
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: no point that I think I was superior to her, No,

658
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 1: I just knew the jig was up, and then I

659
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: was getting the benefit of some reverse racism. That's what

660
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 1: I knew. And that black dude was racist. He was

661
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 1: absolutely racist against that white woman. And like, we looked

662
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 1: at each other's answers, and our answers were damned are

663
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,520
Speaker 1: the same. I was like, ooh, bitch, I don't know

664
00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,479
Speaker 1: how you what's happening in him? Oh? I know you

665
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: want to go up there and rip a hole in

666
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: this man. Our papers look the same. Baby, ooh d

667
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 1: huh m man, that's a damn shame.

668
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 2: And you have a day too, right, I don't even

669
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 2: be in.

670
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 1: Here like this. I know you want to just ooh boy,

671
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: oh boy. Anyway. Anonymous racis for episode seventeen thirty three,

672
00:33:55,520 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: In her own words, we read Beyonce's Vogue profile. This

673
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: might be one of my favorite episodes of all time.

674
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: All right, ooh, you put the ou in there? Okay,

675
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:11,520
Speaker 1: across the pond, I love listening to you two wax

676
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: on about Queen b I feel so lucky to be

677
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: alive during this time in Black culture Renaissance. Everything Beyonce

678
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,879
Speaker 1: does has cultural significance for the entire world. I see

679
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:24,439
Speaker 1: her as a trailblazer, burning away the dross, leaving only

680
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 1: the gold. She takes such heat, but here she is

681
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 1: determined to make sure that her kids get to be

682
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,359
Speaker 1: full of humans instead of traditionally masculine effeminine. The way

683
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: she spoke about healing from relationships, her honesty about her

684
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 1: battle with her body, and how she feels so much

685
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 1: more powerful now that she is older, and I so

686
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 1: identify with that she will be remember hundreds of years

687
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,680
Speaker 1: from now. I believe she is that important. She has

688
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: lessons for all of humanity if they are smart enough

689
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,600
Speaker 1: to listen. Also, being the mom of a twelve year

690
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 1: old gay daughter, I feely appreciate your LGBTQ news. I

691
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: really felt for that kid who got kicked out of

692
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 1: the house because he was gay. So glad the folks

693
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 1: came through for him to help him pay for college.

694
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 1: My daughter struggles with similar shit. Her dad is a

695
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: fundamentalist Catholic, more conservative by day and we left him

696
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: because the damage she was doing to her Psyche was

697
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:15,680
Speaker 1: deep and maybe irreparable. Yo. First of all, I'm so

698
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 1: glad and it's so fortunate she has a parent that

699
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,840
Speaker 1: is willing to fight for her like that and to

700
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,360
Speaker 1: be like, let me get you away from this motherfucker,

701
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,800
Speaker 1: cause a lot of kids don't have that, and the

702
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,919
Speaker 1: parents are kind of like a unit, even if they're

703
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: not a unit to where it's like, well, you don't

704
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: just do what daddy's saying. I know, it's I know,

705
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: you know, it's just difficult, but this is what he

706
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 1: believes like to be able to be like, nah, fuck

707
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,920
Speaker 1: that shit. You don't need to be damaged by this

708
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:45,560
Speaker 1: person because of his hang ups, you know. And it's

709
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,400
Speaker 1: also wild too because like all the you know, obviously,

710
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: human beings are not static creatures, right, Like maybe you

711
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,399
Speaker 1: walk into a marriage and you're more religious than when

712
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,879
Speaker 1: you walk out or when you know, as time goes on.

713
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 1: But it's so wild that people are still that strict

714
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: about their religious doctrine but even take a chance having kids,

715
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: Like why are you even taking the like why are

716
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: you spending the Russian roulette of having kids? Because you

717
00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: not gonna love or really appreciate your kid unless they

718
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: come out the exact way you want them to. Just

719
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: keep your balls. You see yourself there? Man, come on

720
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: like like why why set some person up to be

721
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: damaged by you like that? It's so fucked up? Anyway,

722
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 1: I love singing. Do you want a funk song with you? Guys?

723
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: It just gives me life, even though most of the

724
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 1: LGBTQ news is about how much oppression that to deal with? Yeah, sadness.

725
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: I feel like this show is that. I don't feel

726
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: like our show is just good times, but we just

727
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: having to be funny.

728
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,280
Speaker 2: Correct and play some happy music, up beat music.

729
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,080
Speaker 1: Sometime I just look at the articles and be like

730
00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 1: this bad as bad. It sucks. But at the you go,

731
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 1: well we didn't laugh. Yeah, I'm like, oh we had

732
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: a good show to day. Well we talk about we

00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 1: and then.

737
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 4: That was the cross burning and killed her husband with

738
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,399
Speaker 4: a sword, you know, the black on black crime.

739
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 1: A lot of people, a lot of men abusing power

740
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 1: and being sexual assaults and ship. Good episode though, I

Speaker 1: your kids back like that all booklesshoe base sais. Thank

748
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: you for sharing the Beyonce story of her pregnancy and

749
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:45,560
Speaker 1: intergenerational trauma. Yeah, what's funny is I was just gonna

750
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 1: read the highlights of it, and then I was like,

751
00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,359
Speaker 1: fuck it, let's just read the whole thing. I love

752
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:54,279
Speaker 1: hearing or seeing or reading Beyonce talk, and I really

753
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,400
Speaker 1: think she's a genius, and I think she's ahead of

754
00:37:56,400 --> 00:38:02,319
Speaker 1: her time, and I think she's a person and that Yeah,

755
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,880
Speaker 1: people won't really appreciate the way she managed her image

756
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: and took control singular control of her image in a

757
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: way that was almost revolutionary for a black woman, especially

758
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: a black woman that is that popular, you know, because

759
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,520
Speaker 1: we've seen like a Kim Kardashian do that shit. But

760
00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: a lot of shit seeps through the crack with her,

761
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: and then she sells the drama of her life on

762
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: the TV show and stuff like that. You know, but

763
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: still she's still a mogo on everything. I'm not. This

764
00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: is not an admonishing, just saying it's different, Like Beyonce

765
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,439
Speaker 1: don't really even sell drama. It's like, you can't see

766
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: my kids, nigga, what get out of my nose, Stay

767
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 1: away from my house, get away from my husband.

768
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 2: If you want to know how I feel about something,

769
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 2: by the next album.

770
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 1: Take some long distance pictures from the fucking my yacht.

771
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: That's fine, but don't be fucking trying to touch me

772
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,719
Speaker 1: and shit, And yeah she does. I'm not doing interviews.

773
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: I'll tell you how I feel through my music, through

774
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: the products that I put out. It's amazing anyway. As

775
00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,799
Speaker 1: a woman who suffers from infertility, it had three minscarriages

776
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 1: and still and a still birth before I gave birth

777
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:11,400
Speaker 1: to my biological daughter at age thirty five, I was

778
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 1: on bed rest for six months, have blood clotting issues

779
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:18,560
Speaker 1: which require self administered shots of blood, thinner, gestational diability

780
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 1: by diabetes, and a short service. Premature birth was always

781
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: a danger. Yeah, birth sounds so fucking dangerous. It is

782
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 1: in general, before you get to the racism.

783
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 4: It is, and a lot of women will tell you,

784
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 4: depend on the woman, that given birth is the closest

785
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 4: thing to death without dying.

786
00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it just sounds horrible. And as with all a

787
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,160
Speaker 1: lot of medical shit, you don't even as a man,

788
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: and I'm probably women too in this case, you don't

789
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 1: even know all the complications and things that can go

790
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 1: wrong toil. You're like in it. Right now that you're pregnant,

791
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 1: you have a short service. I did not know that

792
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 1: was a problem, right, you know, now now that you're pregnant,

793
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: you know it's a special type of diabetes that you

794
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: can only get when you're pregnant. What one of my

795
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 1: girlfriends told me that. I was like, you got diabetes?

796
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: I didn't know. She say, no, you can only get

797
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:15,880
Speaker 1: it when you're pregnant.

798
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:17,319
Speaker 2: I was like, what is this?

799
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 1: Yeah? You just like it's like they just walk into

800
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 1: the room and they could be making it up and

801
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: you'll never fucking know because like, oh, you're pregnant. Okay,

802
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 1: Well we're gonna have to test for smurf herpees first,

803
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,279
Speaker 1: Like smurfer, what the fuck is that? Oh, it's only

804
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: when you're pregnant. In certain states, you just get you

805
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 1: might get We're just just a test. It's nothing to

806
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: be worried.

807
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,440
Speaker 4: About, right, and when they don't tell you things, pretty

808
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,320
Speaker 4: smart about a good thing. The hormonal changes your body

809
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 4: goes through is traumatic. You know your body, because your

810
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:50,200
Speaker 4: body expands, your organs actually move, which I know this

811
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,560
Speaker 4: might sound stupid, but literally your organs move.

812
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have to. I mean something inside of you

813
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: growing right right, don't move, I mean just displacement is

814
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: going to happen.

815
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,840
Speaker 4: Right, and then that stuff has to get back in place.

816
00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 4: And then for your hormone or you get pumped or

817
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 4: your your body has a high hormonal your hormones are high,

818
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:10,839
Speaker 4: and so then all of a sudden, your smell goes up,

819
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 4: your taste goes up, your touch goes up.

820
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, you're extra supersensitive.

821
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:19,800
Speaker 1: Like well, see that stuff I think is kind of publicized,

822
00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 1: like the hormonal changes that women go through and all

823
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 1: that stuff. It might not be quote unquote tolerated or

824
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 1: empathized with by a lot of people, but it is

825
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 1: known like, oh, she's pregnant or you know, well, you're

826
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,720
Speaker 1: gonna cry, You're gonna do this, You're gonna want pickles

827
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:35,920
Speaker 1: and shit, like that right, But I mean it's stuff

828
00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: like you know, beyonestly talking about the sea section and

829
00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: they have to take her organs, part of her organs

830
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: out to do to get do the sea section correct.

831
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:48,040
Speaker 1: That's just something that probably happens a lot. Motherfuckers don't

832
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:49,719
Speaker 1: know about it, and we don't already talk about it.

833
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 4: No, they don't talk about how your health falls out,

834
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,400
Speaker 4: how your skin changes. And one of the biggest things,

835
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,319
Speaker 4: which I didn't know until I talked to a lot

836
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 4: of women, after you give birth, your memory isn't the same.

837
00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 4: Like a lot of people said that. They didn't know that,

838
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 4: and you know, they were saying that, like you forget

839
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 4: for a while, your memory comes back, but you know

840
00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 4: your body's going through such a traumatic change.

841
00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:12,359
Speaker 1: What do you mean your memory is the same?

842
00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 2: Your memory is in the same.

843
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 4: Like one of my coworkers she was saying, like when

844
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:22,040
Speaker 4: she was out pregnant. When she was pregnant, her supervisor

845
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 4: was like, well, yeah, Adrianne, she's giving her baby. They

846
00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 4: was like, when she comes back, they was like, give

847
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 4: her some time to readjust to the working environment. And

848
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 4: she was like, I didn't believe it, she said, but

849
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 4: when I came back. She said, I just couldn't remember

850
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 4: certain things, and it took me a while for my memory.

851
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 2: And I've heard this from several different women.

852
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,799
Speaker 1: I believe you. I just hadn't heard it. Like I said,

853
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,400
Speaker 1: these are just things that I hadn't heard.

854
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 4: Of, right me either, til I started talking to women.

855
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 4: A lot of women said they began to be foggy.

856
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 4: And a lot of times, a lot of women think,

857
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 4: you know, they go to the doctor think, oh my god,

858
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 4: I can't remember anything, you know.

859
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 2: Or the simplest things. It's hard for me to comprehend.

860
00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 4: But your body went through something traumatic and you literally

861
00:42:57,080 --> 00:43:00,680
Speaker 4: are pouring everything out, so it takes your body time

862
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,439
Speaker 4: to read adjust. So you know, little things like that, Yeah,

863
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 4: your memory loss, are hair loss.

864
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 2: You know, discolouration of skin, like, it's a lot of stuff.

865
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 1: And it's just they got words for it, this shit.

866
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 1: And you know, here she is one of the most

867
00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,840
Speaker 1: famous black women on the planet, and just like Serena

868
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 1: talking about the ordeal she went through, it was an

869
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:24,320
Speaker 1: ordeal I had just gotten other post the post adoption

870
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,359
Speaker 1: part of depression I had with my first daughter, who

871
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:30,240
Speaker 1: was barely a year and a half when I got pregnant.

872
00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 1: My husband at the time had to carry the way

873
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: of the entire household. It's crucial for women to be

874
00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 1: to honestly share how difficult a pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum

875
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:43,240
Speaker 1: can beat of both men and women. There's pain, blood, fighting, crying,

876
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 1: and two new persons to care for the baby and

877
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: your new post baby self. Remarks like women being having

878
00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: babies for millions of years, or but raating women for breastfeeding,

879
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,200
Speaker 1: formula feeding or having the navy has to stop. There's

880
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 1: nothing easy about getting pregnant or giving birth. I'm about

881
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,560
Speaker 1: to cry, y'all. Y'all test something in me.

882
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:03,600
Speaker 2: I feel m Yeah, it ain't no joke.

883
00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 4: It's and it's one of the things. And and it's amazing.

884
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 4: When you talk about strength, strengthen comes in a lot

885
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 4: of different ways. But for some reason and a just

886
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 4: because of patriarchy, people look at strength as being able

887
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 4: to lift and pick up some ship. But I'm telling

888
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,680
Speaker 4: you right now, it's not not Nay ray Man that

889
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 4: would ever want to be pregnant of the day in

890
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 4: his fucking life. And if he could, all the birth

891
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 4: control would be free, and if he could, all the

892
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 4: abortions would would would would be standard.

893
00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:32,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, yeah, I guess on that I don't.

894
00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:37,879
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like I don't know the ven

895
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 1: diagram of like because you still have like trans people

896
00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:45,920
Speaker 1: that are men who still have vagianas and stuff. Correct,

897
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 1: So I don't know one hundred percent how it foes.

898
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:52,879
Speaker 1: But but yes, I'm talking from a straight If if

899
00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 1: men could have babies, it obviously would change the entire

900
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,880
Speaker 1: way we view gender. Yes, but you know we don't.

901
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,839
Speaker 1: So these motherfuckers is mad comfortable being, you.

902
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,359
Speaker 4: Know, having opinions about shit that they ain't got nothing

903
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 4: to do with. Get your penis out of here. Your

904
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 4: penis will never produce a baby. How are you making

905
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:10,359
Speaker 4: the rules up?

906
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: Brooklyn shoe Bas says, my thirteen year old came out

907
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:15,799
Speaker 1: of closet last year. I can't imagine throwing anyone throwing

908
00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 1: away their child for that. Her biggest fear was not

909
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,279
Speaker 1: being accepted by her dad and me, although we saw

910
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:24,760
Speaker 1: ourselves as liberal allies. But hey, it's just so pervasive

911
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,480
Speaker 1: at overshadows of love. Yo. That's the other thing. There's

912
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: a lot of people that talk a good game until

913
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 1: their kid is gay. Right, They all pro this and

914
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 1: pro that and then their kids gay, and it's like

915
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,160
Speaker 1: I need them in to hold up. This is a lot,

916
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 1: you know, which is just fuck. I. I know I'm weird,

917
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: and I know I view life weirdly and kind of

918
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 1: a hippie ish or whatever, but I legitimately don't understand

919
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:51,239
Speaker 1: how that's a thing for people when they're like I

920
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:54,359
Speaker 1: need a minute. You're gay? You know what I mean?

921
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,560
Speaker 1: Like what will hold on? I need a chance to

922
00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:01,880
Speaker 1: deal with this. You know it's not gonna what's it

923
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: gonna change for me? You know what I mean? Like, Okay,

924
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:10,200
Speaker 1: I you're gay, I'm your parent. We're not in any

925
00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 1: romantic or sexual entanglement. It's I just I don't know.

926
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,520
Speaker 1: But that's just I know that's because of how I

927
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 1: look at life, and I'm the weird one. I know

928
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:23,080
Speaker 1: that the average person, especially when they talk about their

929
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,799
Speaker 1: coming out story to like friends and family, it's all

930
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,880
Speaker 1: over the place and a lot of like but what

931
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 1: about me, not you? And how I'm supposed to deal

932
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,399
Speaker 1: with this? And I know there's some wrong things to say,

933
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 1: like you're not supposed to be like, oh, nigga, we

934
00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: been on you as gay or soul I don't care

935
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,880
Speaker 1: or whatever. Like, I know you're not supposed to do

936
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: that shit, but yeah, part of me is almost like

937
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:47,640
Speaker 1: I'm you know, like I guess I'm onst some other

938
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 1: shit because I'm just like, oh, that's dope, cool, you know,

939
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:54,839
Speaker 1: glad you told me. And then you know, unless you

940
00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: like specifically need to talk to me about something, right,

941
00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,279
Speaker 1: you know, like just let me know what I can

942
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,640
Speaker 1: do to support man, Like, that's what love is supposed

943
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,439
Speaker 1: to be. It's not supposed to be I love you,

944
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: but you gotta marry a man, or I love you,

945
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,360
Speaker 1: but you gotta marry a woman. I love you, but

946
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 1: you need to have children in as Cis had relationship.

947
00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:18,279
Speaker 1: It just shouldn't be like that. But you listen to

948
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: these stories, and it's everybody's biggest fear is that these

949
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,360
Speaker 1: people that claim to love them are just gonna turn around.

950
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:27,000
Speaker 1: And it's a it's a valid fear because how many

951
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,759
Speaker 1: of these nightmare stories are this person claimed to love me,

952
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 1: They said it's okay for people to be gay. They

953
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 1: see their friends go through it, You're right, their relationship,

954
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 1: they're they're they're religious, but they're not a big blah

955
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:39,839
Speaker 1: blah blah. And then their kid come out and they're like,

956
00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:41,880
Speaker 1: oh that I found out my parents are biggest. They

957
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,480
Speaker 1: don't fuck with me at all, no more anyway, even

958
00:47:44,520 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 1: he says, I joined to be high Lake probably around

959
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 1: the time she dropped her first visual album. I've always

960
00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:51,719
Speaker 1: enjoyed her music, but after the self titled album, I

961
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,520
Speaker 1: knew she was that bitch. I have been on board

962
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 1: ever since. She can do no wrong in my eyes,

963
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 1: And this interview was so inspired. I love how real

964
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:01,640
Speaker 1: she was. I appreciate what she said about real bodies

965
00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:04,399
Speaker 1: and not obsessing over losing her baby wait though I'm

966
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: still trying to lose baby wait even though my kids,

967
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: my kid is a l l the surprise, Well, see,

968
00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 1: that's the other thing you ain't really got like Beyonce. One,

969
00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: that's her lane right, one hundred percent. That's like she's

970
00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 1: a workaholic in that whole lane. Two. She gonna get

971
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:26,600
Speaker 1: the best trainers, the best dietician. She's her work ethic

972
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 1: and time that she has to work on her body

973
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,399
Speaker 1: and herself is you know, she.

974
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 4: Can't be a dedicate Like if she says, Okay, three months,

975
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,840
Speaker 4: I want to do X, Y and Z, she gonna

976
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:38,880
Speaker 4: lay her schedule out and it's gonna be like the

977
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 4: biggest loser.

978
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:41,000
Speaker 2: Like every day you get up.

979
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 4: At this time we exercise and at this time you're

980
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 4: eating this at this time, like it's gonna be laid

00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 4: out right.

982
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 1: She can do that. And one of the fucked up

983
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 1: things about how we look at motherhood with especially you know,

984
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 1: just for women, and shit, we expect women to do

985
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,880
Speaker 1: everything Beyonce did with her body and cold out a

986
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 1: full time job and be raising her kids and cook

987
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,400
Speaker 1: and clean and take care of her man if she

988
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 1: has one, or if she doesn't have one, take care

989
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,640
Speaker 1: of the whole house, you know, And then and you

990
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,319
Speaker 1: need to also pop and snap back into shape, like

991
00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:15,440
Speaker 1: it's kind of it's fucked up, Like it's not an

992
00:49:15,480 --> 00:49:18,359
Speaker 1: unreasonable thing for someone to put a whole human being

993
00:49:18,440 --> 00:49:22,239
Speaker 1: inside of them, carry it to term, and then be like, yeah,

994
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 1: my body's gonna be changed forever now and I might

995
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 1: not look the same as I did. One of the

996
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:29,440
Speaker 1: worst things I've ever heard men say. And they say

997
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 1: it so casually and it's so fucked up, and when

998
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,439
Speaker 1: you like, it's so fucked up a commonplace that it's

999
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:40,000
Speaker 1: almost like not even worth challenging them. But I mean,

1000
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 1: I have challenge dudes who say this shit, but when

1001
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 1: they're like, well, my wife, you know, she may it

1002
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,000
Speaker 1: never get over X amount of weight, and she would.

1003
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:48,959
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm married, you looking like this, you better

1004
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 1: look like that. And I'm like, are y'all gonna have kids? Yeah? Well,

1005
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,239
Speaker 1: after she had kings, she got to do well, she

1006
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,279
Speaker 1: better get on the treadmill or something. I'm like, what

1007
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,279
Speaker 1: the fuck are you bringing in this relationship? What you're

1008
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 1: gonna be doing while she's on a treadmill? Mhm, Like

1009
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 1: you gonna what you're gonna be doing to make her

1010
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 1: life easier so she can get treadmill time out of

1011
00:50:08,120 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 1: the fucking thing sky air while while having a baby

1012
00:50:12,160 --> 00:50:14,520
Speaker 1: and a job. What the fuck you supposed to do? Right?

1013
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 4: And you get all these demands and you looking like, well, nigga,

1014
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:18,759
Speaker 4: you ain't got no six pack? What are we talking

1015
00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:19,319
Speaker 4: about here?

1016
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 1: But even if you did, look what your life is different, right,

1017
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 1: Like you're you're able to get that because you're supported

1018
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:29,919
Speaker 1: at home. So if you wanna hit the gym every day,

1019
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 1: you're hitting the gym every day because somebody's cooking for you,

1020
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,520
Speaker 1: somebody's cleaning for you, somebody's taking care of your fucking kid,

1021
00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 1: You're not in an equal situation, Like, it's just fucked up.

1022
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: I hate when I hear dudes say that shit. It

1023
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:42,520
Speaker 1: sounds like having a slave.

1024
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,720
Speaker 4: Come on, and then you act like when a woman

1025
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 4: gets pregnant, she's not supposed to gain fucking weight. Some

1026
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:51,240
Speaker 4: women get pregnant and they do cross the two hundred

1027
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,279
Speaker 4: pound range two hundred plus pound range, But Barry is

1028
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:55,600
Speaker 4: different reasons.

1029
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 1: Also, just the main thing for me is that when

1030
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:03,520
Speaker 1: you when you look at the marriage rates and you

1031
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,840
Speaker 1: see it going down and you see the voice race climbing,

1032
00:51:06,840 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 1: it's and everybody's like, it's because people change back in

1033
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 1: the day. It's just no, it's because women have options

1034
00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 1: and the ever increasing awareness that most cis had men

1035
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 1: are not worth their time or worth being a relationship with.

1036
00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 1: It's dawning on folks. It's just starting. It's a losing

1037
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,160
Speaker 1: proposition for so many people, and there's so few men

1038
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:34,239
Speaker 1: that have caught on to like, how do I make

1039
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 1: it so that it's not what can I provide in

1040
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:41,920
Speaker 1: this relationship That isn't just me Brent saying I'm around, bitch,

1041
00:51:42,120 --> 00:51:43,160
Speaker 1: you better be having.

1042
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:45,720
Speaker 4: My presence, Like you said, my presence is the presence.

1043
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 4: You don't well, nigga know you need more than the presence.

1044
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:50,880
Speaker 1: Here's my dick, let's go get the work.

1045
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,400
Speaker 2: And that's that's the and that's the end all be all.

1046
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:58,359
Speaker 4: And you know, it's one of those things where women go, oh,

1047
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:02,280
Speaker 4: I can actually function. She on the average make more money,

1048
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:04,120
Speaker 4: particularly black women, make more money.

1049
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:06,839
Speaker 1: Why the fuck am I putting up with your bullshit?

1050
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:13,359
Speaker 1: I'm out? Yeah, So it's just it's whack our ev

1051
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:18,319
Speaker 1: said goes on to say, Uh, the surprising thing about

1052
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 1: the Robin Givens shit is that she is also black. Oh,

1053
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 1: we know we've talked about her before, but I guess

1054
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,360
Speaker 1: that's the way she kids to keep writing for these

1055
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:28,920
Speaker 1: type of magazines by tearing her down the black women

1056
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:31,920
Speaker 1: as a way to show that she's objective. She's the

1057
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,319
Speaker 1: canvas owners of fashion with Then again, there's always someone

1058
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:38,279
Speaker 1: hating from the outside of club. Yeah, I look, I

1059
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:40,200
Speaker 1: thought it was really weird.

1060
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:40,680
Speaker 3: Uh.

1061
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:46,240
Speaker 1: Last year when she reported on the off the record

1062
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:48,879
Speaker 1: conversation that Michelle Obama had with a bunch of black

1063
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,960
Speaker 1: women and black journalists, and everybody else in the room

1064
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 1: understood that they weren't supposed to really take that conversation

1065
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 1: and report on it, and she was the only one

1066
00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 1: who did. And I was like, yeah, that makes sense

1067
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:00,840
Speaker 1: because it's her.

1068
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 2: Right, right. And then you wonder why I don't know

1069
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:04,839
Speaker 2: about to bite you the shit, but you can't keep

1070
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 2: your mouth shut.

1071
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:10,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I would not vouch for her on this,

1072
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,759
Speaker 1: And I think it's kind of sad that, you know,

1073
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 1: people give her space and room, but that's just what

1074
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 1: they do, you know, it just is what it is, man.

1075
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 1: And I saw a lot of black journalists that try

1076
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,120
Speaker 1: to like have her back there in that situation, and

1077
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:30,799
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, but you wouldn't do it either. So

1078
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:33,560
Speaker 1: what are we talking about here? YEA, Like, how come

1079
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 1: y'all didn't know? How come y'all didn't all make the

1080
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:38,879
Speaker 1: same mistake because it was other journalists in the room,

1081
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:42,840
Speaker 1: only one person violated protocol? How come everybody didn't violate protocol?

1082
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 1: Now you can do the whole like, well, technically cool, technically,

1083
00:53:47,640 --> 00:53:51,440
Speaker 1: I feel you. Why wasn't everybody technically on the same shit? Oh,

1084
00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:56,040
Speaker 1: people kind of understood not to. But yeah, she's just

1085
00:53:56,160 --> 00:54:00,520
Speaker 1: kind of she just kind of always and some shit,

1086
00:54:00,600 --> 00:54:04,240
Speaker 1: That's all I say. She said. Serena Williams Instagram picture

1087
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:08,520
Speaker 1: was like some cliche and Dahl lah shit and then

1088
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 1: you know Beyonce, same type of shit, Like she's just

1089
00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:16,680
Speaker 1: always kind of coming for the big names of black

1090
00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 1: women out out here doing shit. So anyway, good luck though,

1091
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:29,560
Speaker 1: you know, uh that all of it for her? Yeah, Okay,

1092
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:32,800
Speaker 1: Heavyweight says, I love that she's such a polarizer figure,

1093
00:54:32,840 --> 00:54:34,840
Speaker 1: but it always bothered me that Beyonce can't win with

1094
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:37,400
Speaker 1: some people no matter what. She doesn't talk about something

1095
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:40,439
Speaker 1: she's wrong, and she does, it's only for publicity and

1096
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,799
Speaker 1: if she needs as if she needs any if she

1097
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 1: gives to a cause, it's for show and it's not enough.

1098
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:48,400
Speaker 1: I've heard people say she's an industry creation, as if

1099
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:50,480
Speaker 1: she hasn't exhibited the most control of her image that

1100
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:53,919
Speaker 1: we've seen an artists have since Prince. Her excellence is unprecedented,

1101
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 1: and I wish it wasn't the woke, readcontrariant thing to

1102
00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,640
Speaker 1: do to text shots at her. Yeah, and also some

1103
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,719
Speaker 1: of these fuck is just some bitter ass niggas, some

1104
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 1: bitter ass high behind your avatar loser ass never done

1105
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: nothing of significance or said anything of significance that anyone

1106
00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,240
Speaker 1: would ever give a fuck about. So now I'm gonna

1107
00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,959
Speaker 1: tear this woman down because it really makes me feel

1108
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,279
Speaker 1: think about how inadequate I am in myself. And that's

1109
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:25,240
Speaker 1: what watching somebody that loves themselves and knows their value

1110
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:29,239
Speaker 1: does the people that are insecure. It fucking tears on part.

1111
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,600
Speaker 1: You know, she ain't never really did nothing to nobody

1112
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 1: that deserve the utter disdain nothing that other you know,

1113
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,479
Speaker 1: it's just wild. It's just some wild shit. Anyway, She's

1114
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,279
Speaker 1: great and the best that I love talking about her.

1115
00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:45,960
Speaker 1: I really like what was said about reflecting our relationships

1116
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:49,120
Speaker 1: and doing what needs doing to change the outcome. And

1117
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:51,319
Speaker 1: if I may not look it may not look like

1118
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,360
Speaker 1: what others thinkers should. One of my favorite songs by

1119
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,439
Speaker 1: Little Brother Offer You on The Misser Show talks about

1120
00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 1: a man's relationship with his father how ultimately affected this

1121
00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,360
Speaker 1: relationship with his wife and his son. The relationships we

1122
00:56:00,360 --> 00:56:02,319
Speaker 1: see and experience have a well of molding us that

1123
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:04,840
Speaker 1: we have to address if we want a different outcome.

1124
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:10,640
Speaker 1: The poe was what's your favorite Kendrick album? Because Kendrick

1125
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,160

1131
00:56:32,520 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 1: of him on, So I could see other people being like, yeah,

1132
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:40,840
Speaker 1: I was not up on that, so that wouldn't be

1133
00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:44,320
Speaker 1: my favorite. And plus it's you know, probably he's probably

1134
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:48,240
Speaker 1: improved over the years. Uh. Then we put our episode

Speaker 1: but I'm happy to recommend places close to uptown within

1148
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:30,040
Speaker 1: walking distance and a quick uber or light rail ride

1149
00:57:30,120 --> 00:57:32,280

Speaker 1: in town. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff in that

1151
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:39,560

1152
00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 1: is dope. I like, uh, Toast is over there. I

1153
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:47,280
Speaker 1: believe I like the one off Park a little better,

1154
00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: but that Toast is also good. But yeah, anyway, let

1155

Speaker 1: me say r Ruse and Babe Loo are my favorite spots.

1156
00:57:56,000 --> 00:58:00,360

00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 1: can't even perfect place for all of your white woman

1158
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,520

1164
00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:22,640
Speaker 1: because y'all would just be by a restaurant.

1165
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:24,919
Speaker 4: You can tell it's fancy because of the hours, right.

1166
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,680
Speaker 4: They was like, look, we don't do certain days.

1170
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,440
Speaker 1: lot because you can't make it being open only.

1171

00:58:57,720 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 1: case of emotions. But I usually tank the word in

00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 1: put without spell check anyway, so I didn't feel bad.

1179

01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 1: That's how they got them from Uh, that's how they

1221
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 1: got them from Africa. You guys want to pick some apples?

1222
01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:17,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, sure, what sounds dope. We'll just get on

1223
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:21,920
Speaker 1: this ship. Thanks for sharing this episode, said Eve. I

1224
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,000
Speaker 1: really enjoyed it. It made me so hungry. I was

1225
01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:26,360
Speaker 1: wondering if I could possibly make a request. I follow

1226
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:28,200
Speaker 1: you both on social media and you always post the

1227
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:30,600
Speaker 1: most delicious dishes on the ground and on Facebook. I

1228
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:33,160
Speaker 1: was wondering if when you post the picture of the food,

1229
01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: you could post what restaurants they come from? Because what

1230
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:39,440
Speaker 1: I would look love looking them up to see if

1231
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:41,360
Speaker 1: there are any of my area or a potential place

1232
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,560
Speaker 1: to visit when I travel. I understand if you don't

1233
01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:45,560
Speaker 1: want to. Just know that you guys are always making

1234
01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:48,360
Speaker 1: a sistan really hungry with all that food for you post.

1235
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:51,680
Speaker 1: I don't be honest with you. I'm not doing that,

1236
01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:54,479
Speaker 1: but I'm also give you a little bit of hope

1237
01:01:56,240 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: if you have yop or you follow me on yo,

1238
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:01,680
Speaker 1: I'm already doing it. I just don't want to. It's

1239
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,600
Speaker 1: just extra work to then't be like, because then it

1240
01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:07,360
Speaker 1: becomes work. I'm be honest. I like going out to

1241
01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:11,240
Speaker 1: eat with Karen occasionally, especially we can go somewhere nice

1242
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:13,320
Speaker 1: or someone I've never been before, you know, kind of

1243
01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 1: become a tourist in my own city, right, try dish

1244
01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:19,160
Speaker 1: that I you know, haven't tried, you know, something like that.

1245
01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:21,840
Speaker 1: I love taking pictures like oh this is so good,

1246
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:25,200
Speaker 1: you know. But at the same time, like if I

1247
01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:29,280
Speaker 1: had to start cataloging, like what did I eat? Where

1248
01:02:29,280 --> 01:02:32,200
Speaker 1: did I eat it, and they put it on all

1249
01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 1: my social media fees, you know, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, it

1250
01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:38,800
Speaker 1: would kind of become into like work territory for me.

1251
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:41,080
Speaker 1: And that's the exact opposite of what I want to

1252
01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:44,120
Speaker 1: do when I'm eating those meals. You know what I mean.

1253
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:46,360
Speaker 1: Plus sometimes I don't even post the pictures still hours

1254
01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:49,440
Speaker 1: later or days later, stuff like that. But on Yelp,

1255
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:51,880
Speaker 1: what will happen is because I check in at a place,

1256
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,040
Speaker 1: I'll remember like, oh, yeah, I'm gonna upload a bunch

1257
01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:56,920
Speaker 1: of pictures, and I can just go back and be like, oh,

1258
01:02:56,960 --> 01:03:00,160
Speaker 1: we got this at this place, and you know, if

1259
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:01,800
Speaker 1: I remember the name, I'll put the name. If not,

1260
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,200
Speaker 1: I'll just put the picture up. So yeah, you can

1261
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:06,720
Speaker 1: follow me on Yelp, and I'll put our yelps in

1262
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:08,560
Speaker 1: the show notes. K, Guys.

1263
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:09,280
Speaker 2: I'm on yelp too.

1264
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,640
Speaker 1: All right. The poe was do you prefer grits with

1265
01:03:12,760 --> 01:03:18,439
Speaker 1: sugar or butter? Yes? Me, that's the poe.

1266
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:22,439
Speaker 4: Oh okay for me, I've kind of evolved. I don't

1267
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:24,440
Speaker 4: know if it's evolved the change. When I was younger,

1268
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,320
Speaker 4: I used to put sugar in my grists. Because as

1269
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 4: I got older, particularly as I started cutting down on

1270
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 4: my sugar in take, I do salt and.

1271
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,919
Speaker 2: Pepper and butter now. But I used to put sugar

1272
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:35,440
Speaker 2: in my grits.

1273
01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:40,520
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. Do you prefer yo? Obviously butter is the

1274
01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:42,720
Speaker 1: only right answer. You prefer your grits with sugar butter.

1275
01:03:42,760 --> 01:03:45,000
Speaker 1: Twenty two percent of y'all pick sugar and seventy eight

1276
01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:47,520
Speaker 1: percent pick butter. Let me tell you something about these

1277
01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:52,960
Speaker 1: sugar grit niggas. Sugar grit people are as loud and

1278
01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:57,280
Speaker 1: obnoxious with them special shit as niggas who don't know

1279
01:03:57,320 --> 01:04:00,800
Speaker 1: how to play spades. But ah, both of these things

1280
01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:04,760
Speaker 1: are shameful, and y'all should be ashamed and relegated to

1281
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 1: a part of the Internet where you don't talk about

1282
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:11,360
Speaker 1: these things. Okay, start your own Reddit form or something

1283
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,000
Speaker 1: for the six of y'all and go talk about it death,

1284
01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:18,360
Speaker 1: because we don't need this type of fake news in

1285
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 1: America's frankly, and I'm quite disturbed. I had to mute

1286
01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 1: a tweet because all the special grit niggas kept showing

1287
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,200
Speaker 1: up in my fucking because I was I asked an

1288
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 1: honest question, an innocent question. I said, if you go

1289
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,960
Speaker 1: on a date with somebody and they start putting sugar

1290
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,120
Speaker 1: in their grits, is it okay to split the check

1291
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:41,439
Speaker 1: or do you just leave da? And people was like, yeah,

1292
01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:43,760
Speaker 1: obviously you can split the check or leave Either one

1293
01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:46,440
Speaker 1: of those is the right answer, And a bunch of

1294
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,240
Speaker 1: sugar grit people. Was like, Oh, now that's the I

1295
01:04:49,280 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 1: would marry them because that's the only way to eat Chris,

1296
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:53,400
Speaker 1: And I'm like, why are you acting like you're not

1297
01:04:53,720 --> 01:04:56,440
Speaker 1: one percent of the nation, Like there ain't no big

1298
01:04:56,520 --> 01:04:58,959
Speaker 1: ass contingent of sugar grit people. It's a small little

1299
01:04:58,960 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 1: group allowed the fuckers that are like, I'm so great,

1300

Speaker 1: I eat sugar and my grits. There's a couple of y'all.

01:05:06,680 --> 01:05:10,800

01:05:10,880 --> 01:05:13,200
Speaker 1: y'all date each other, stay out of the dating pool.

01:05:13,360 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 2: Sugar grits dot com.

01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:18,040
Speaker 1: Yeah uh even, he says. People push sugar in at grits,

1305
01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:23,040

1306
01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 1: option for both? How about those who want both of them? Girl?

1311
01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:43,960
Speaker 1: salt and pepper. Thank you, Steve says, growing up, my

1312
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 1: grandmother these put sugar on my grits and to get

1313
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 1: me to eat them. But then again she will push

1314
01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:51,120
Speaker 1: sugar in anything up peasy and in my milk and

1315
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 1: my rice. That that was because I was like Troy

1316
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:57,959
Speaker 1: from Crookling back then. I fell asleep at the kitchen

1317
01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:00,880
Speaker 1: many a night because I refuse to eat certain things.

1318
01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,200
Speaker 1: But I digress. Now that I'm grown, I wouldn't dare

1319
01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:04,960
Speaker 1: put sugar on my grits, but I do enjoy a

1320
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:07,240
Speaker 1: good bowl of cream and wheat in the winter. Yeah.

1321
01:06:07,320 --> 01:06:10,960
Speaker 1: One of the things I found interesting about about that

1322
01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:13,640
Speaker 1: when I was a kid, my grandma would put like

1323
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:18,920
Speaker 1: salmon in the grits or like she would, but she

1324
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 1: would put other stuff in the grits because I hated

1325
01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:23,360
Speaker 1: grits when I was a kid, not because I hated

1326
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 1: grits as like the entity I would eat my grap

1327
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:30,240
Speaker 1: It's funny think about because it was like a thing,

1328
01:06:30,320 --> 01:06:32,000
Speaker 1: and that like they would make fun of me. It

1329
01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,240
Speaker 1: was funny because I was like, definitely afraid of this shit.

1330
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:41,000
Speaker 1: It's so stupid as a kid. Anyway, they my grandma

1331
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:43,080
Speaker 1: will make grits, and I would eat the grits as

1332
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:45,680
Speaker 1: long as they were hot, but as soon as they

1333
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: got cold, it kind of congealed. A little bit at

1334
01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:52,000
Speaker 1: the bottom of the bowl. I have never seen anything

1335
01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:53,720
Speaker 1: as gross in my fucking life. I'll be like, I'm

1336
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,000
Speaker 1: not eating these, and my grandma'd be like, boy, it's

1337
01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:58,080
Speaker 1: the same grits. Just fucking eat the grits, right, I

1338
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:01,400
Speaker 1: just got cold. I'm like, no, the grit I don't

1339
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:04,000
Speaker 1: want to eat whatever the fuck this shit has become.

1340
01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 1: This is jello now. She's like, no, it's grits. And

1341
01:07:06,880 --> 01:07:08,760
Speaker 1: then sometimes she would put a little water in there,

1342
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:11,880
Speaker 1: like stirred up. And this is kind of before microwaves,

1343
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,080
Speaker 1: but she would like stir it up and give it

1344
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 1: back to me, and I'll eat the grits again, like oh, this,

1345
01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:19,200
Speaker 1: Chris is so delicious, so good, and this was some

1346
01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:21,480
Speaker 1: salmon in this and then it get cold and I'm

1347
01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:24,880
Speaker 1: like oh, And like it would bother me so bad,

1348
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,160
Speaker 1: like my uncles and stuff would like pour the grits

1349
01:07:27,200 --> 01:07:29,800
Speaker 1: out the bowl and shoulder like the part at the

1350
01:07:29,880 --> 01:07:32,200
Speaker 1: bottom that you know, and they'd be like, just flip

1351
01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:33,680
Speaker 1: it over and do this, and I'll be like, no,

1352
01:07:34,240 --> 01:07:36,760
Speaker 1: it looks gross. It was so I don't know why

1353
01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:39,720
Speaker 1: that bothered me so bad. It just did.

1354
01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:43,920
Speaker 2: Honey, you take you some They got recipes.

1355
01:07:43,960 --> 01:07:46,600
Speaker 4: You take the grits now and let them get old,

1356
01:07:46,720 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 4: and honey, you can put like a little mold. You

1357
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:50,200
Speaker 4: can do a lot of plants and shiit with that.

1358
01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:53,280
Speaker 1: It's fucking delicious. Yeah, I don't know now. I would

1359
01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:55,720
Speaker 1: never bother me now, but it bothered the hell out.

1360
01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 1: I mean it was a thing, and now it was

1361
01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:00,960
Speaker 1: like people remember people like my aunt and uncles, remember

1362
01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 1: me being like, you don't like grits. I'm like, no,

1363
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,760
Speaker 1: I don't mind not grits. But you don't eat yellow,

1364
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:11,880
Speaker 1: do you? I mean not? I mean nobody eats yello

1365
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:15,160
Speaker 1: though I like jello. But you know I like jello.

1366
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 2: I don't eat it that often, but I like it.

1367
01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:20,519
Speaker 1: Here we go with the lies. I'm just you know what.

1368
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:22,760
Speaker 1: Everybody knows. It's the gimmick by now. I'm not going

1369
01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 1: to do this for the seventy fifth time. But how

1370
01:08:28,400 --> 01:08:31,760
Speaker 1: was it? Lies? Do we have any Jello in this house? No?

1371
01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:36,439
Speaker 1: Have we ever had any jello in this house? Nope? Right, okay,

1372
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:39,800
Speaker 1: but you like I do? Okay, I don't buy it

1373
01:08:39,880 --> 01:08:46,400

01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:08,800

1423
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:36,040
Speaker 1: asked if my kids met any of my past lovers.

1424
01:11:36,680 --> 01:11:38,639
Speaker 1: He was trying to be low key judge, of course,

1425
01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:40,280
Speaker 1: so I had to explain to him that, as a woman,

1426
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:42,880
Speaker 1: I introduced men to my family not because he may

1427
01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:45,320
Speaker 1: be the one, but because I need to be safe

1428
01:11:45,640 --> 01:11:49,360
Speaker 1: in the event that something happens, that they need to

1429
01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:52,120
Speaker 1: know who to look for. Come on, too many times

1430
01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:54,599

Speaker 4: Oh.

1434
01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:06,200
Speaker 1: I think if if as men since admin or whatever,

1435
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:08,479
Speaker 1: if we knew how much shit women do for their

1436
01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 1: own safety, we would definitely chill the fuck out. You

1437
01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:14,840
Speaker 1: were like, why would we date us, right, and we

1438
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:17,040
Speaker 1: do know because men are scared of men more than

1439
01:12:17,040 --> 01:12:20,000
Speaker 1: anything else. Yes, they are, by the way, I just

1440
01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:21,559
Speaker 1: want to try to know. I watching the show called

1441
01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:25,639
Speaker 1: Random Acts of Flyness. It comes on HBO Friday nights.

1442
01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:30,719
Speaker 1: It's almost like a black it's almost like a black

1443
01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:34,479
Speaker 1: adult swimmish type show, but it's just about black shit.

1444
01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:37,439
Speaker 1: The first episode was was cool and I was like,

1445
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:39,559
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope it can keep this pace up.

1446
01:12:39,600 --> 01:12:42,200
Speaker 1: And then I watched some of the second episode. Yeah,

1447
01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:46,080
Speaker 1: the show is really fucking good now and it seems

1448
01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:48,599
Speaker 1: like a bunch of non sequitary type of skits almost,

1449
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:51,720
Speaker 1: but it's about black shit and it's so real. That

1450
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:54,840
Speaker 1: was like, they the one I'm watching now. They start

1451
01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:57,280
Speaker 1: off the show kind of talking about street harassment. It's

1452
01:12:57,400 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 1: kind of from uh, this one's perspective of walking down

1453
01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:05,920
Speaker 1: the street and dealing with street harassment and shit. There's

1454
01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:07,719
Speaker 1: a video game she plays and you have to shoot

1455
01:13:07,760 --> 01:13:11,080
Speaker 1: down out the street harassers. And then there's a scene

1456
01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:15,800
Speaker 1: after that where black men are complimenting other black men

1457
01:13:16,040 --> 01:13:18,120
Speaker 1: who appear to be like six head black men walking

1458
01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:21,040
Speaker 1: down the street, and you know, at first you almost

1459
01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:24,680
Speaker 1: feel like it's that homophobic thing, and it's not. It's

1460
01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:28,280
Speaker 1: using the homophobia innately in somebody to make them uncomfortable

1461
01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:30,599
Speaker 1: to be like, well, if men started talking about look

1462
01:13:30,640 --> 01:13:33,040
Speaker 1: at your jeans, how would you feel? And it's one

1463
01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 1: of the few ways to make straight men be like, oh, yeah,

1464
01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:39,519
Speaker 1: I guess that is fucked up. Very very rarely will

1465
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:42,920
Speaker 1: it happen, but anyway, it starts off where you think

1466
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:44,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like that, and then the twist is

1467
01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:49,560
Speaker 1: like they actually are complimenting each other. They're accepting the compliments.

1468
01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:54,080
Speaker 1: They're not. It's not even in some like and now

1469
01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:57,760
Speaker 1: we're gonna be gay or we're boyfriend girlfriend, I mean

1470
01:13:57,840 --> 01:14:01,519
Speaker 1: boyfriend boyfriend or anything like that. They all meet and

1471
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:05,040
Speaker 1: at this corner and then everybody group hugs each other

1472
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:08,400
Speaker 1: and it's just kind of like watching since had black

1473
01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:13,719
Speaker 1: men like love each other touch each other all this shit.

1474
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:15,960
Speaker 1: It's just it's such a complicated show, but it's so

1475
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:20,280
Speaker 1: fucking provocative and good, Like it's just something I've never

1476
01:14:20,400 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 1: seen before. They last week's episode, they talked about racism

1477
01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:27,960
Speaker 1: stuff things called black face, and they would have these

1478
01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:31,280
Speaker 1: like black people and the camera would kind of like

1479
01:14:31,920 --> 01:14:34,360
Speaker 1: be a very close up shot of their faces and

1480
01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:36,760
Speaker 1: it would just be like show like you know, be

1481
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,200
Speaker 1: a maybe a father and son or mother and family,

1482
01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:41,400
Speaker 1: or be people by themselves and just be like black face,

1483
01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:44,920
Speaker 1: next picture of blackface, next picture of black face, next

1484
01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:47,680
Speaker 1: picture of black face. And then they show like, you know,

1485
01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:51,360
Speaker 1: somebody with actual black face makeup on, and they be

1486
01:14:51,479 --> 01:14:55,679
Speaker 1: like not blackface, and then back toup black face, black face,

1487
01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:59,960
Speaker 1: like all different shades, cons colors, creed or gender oriented

1488
01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:02,240
Speaker 1: and stuff of black. Then they had this thing on

1489
01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 1: there called Last Week was about sexuality as black people

1490
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 1: and what it like. They had like a show about

1491
01:15:11,200 --> 01:15:14,840
Speaker 1: like a little mini show set up about about it.

1492
01:15:14,920 --> 01:15:17,920
Speaker 1: It was so dope. It was about police violence in

1493
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:20,519
Speaker 1: the first episode, and it could be a little quote

1494
01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:25,120
Speaker 1: unquote triggerish for people who you know, don't want to

1495
01:15:25,160 --> 01:15:29,320
Speaker 1: see any level of like police brutality or something like that.

1496
01:15:29,640 --> 01:15:32,960
Speaker 1: But then like they use that imagery a little bit

1497
01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:36,640
Speaker 1: and then it culminates in this the guy who's like

1498
01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:40,200
Speaker 1: the main character of the show is having an interaction

1499
01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:42,560
Speaker 1: with the police and you're and he's filming it with

1500
01:15:42,680 --> 01:15:45,479
Speaker 1: his phone, and it's getting to be kind of you know,

1501
01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:48,839
Speaker 1: a lot of animosity is starting to build up intension

1502
01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:51,240
Speaker 1: is building up, and then like it ends with him

1503
01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:53,760
Speaker 1: flying off, like and he's still having the phone, so

1504
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:56,120
Speaker 1: you're seeing it from the phone perspective, but like he

1505
01:15:56,320 --> 01:15:58,839
Speaker 1: literally leaves the ground and flies out like fucking Superman,

1506
01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:03,040
Speaker 1: like what I just watch, Like like it's I don't know,

1507
01:16:04,080 --> 01:16:06,680
Speaker 1: it's like I'm recommending it, but I don't know the

1508
01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:09,240
Speaker 1: best way to recommend it. But I really fucking liked it.

1509
01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:12,400
Speaker 1: And I think even the one they did that that

1510
01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:16,479
Speaker 1: I'm watching today, they had a whole thing about transfemininity

1511
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,920
Speaker 1: and so like it's like it's a black show that

1512
01:16:20,240 --> 01:16:26,080
Speaker 1: isn't running away from the intersectionality of blackness. It's not

1513
01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:29,960
Speaker 1: running and it's not trying to do like the the

1514
01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:36,160
Speaker 1: my cheese mode the performance performative like toxic masculinity shit

1515
01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:38,320
Speaker 1: of blackness. It is and it's but it's also not

1516
01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 1: very preachy, so like it's just it's just an experience. Man.

1517
01:16:42,080 --> 01:16:45,080
Speaker 1: I really can't recommend it highly enough. So all right,

1518
01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:48,400
Speaker 1: back to your emails, Keana writes, saying, if your lips

1519
01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:52,200
Speaker 1: ain't smacking, I said it before, but it bears a

1520
01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 1: peeding y'all. Some inspirational ass niggas. Thank you, I've been

1521
01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:00,040
Speaker 1: meaning to upgrade to the Premium, and after hearing this

1522
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:01,600
Speaker 1: episode of The Lips Back and Good, I need to

1523
01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:04,439
Speaker 1: get on that immediately. I love everything about this segment.

1524
01:17:04,479 --> 01:17:06,599
Speaker 1: A few years ago, me and my boyfriend talked about

1525
01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:09,479
Speaker 1: doing a food blog, mainly because we're both greedy, but

1526
01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:11,920
Speaker 1: also because we both love to cook. We're from DC,

1527
01:17:12,120 --> 01:17:15,080
Speaker 1: so we're gonna call it the Metro Munches. All like

1528
01:17:15,160 --> 01:17:17,720
Speaker 1: that Metro Munch. It sounds cool. It was gonna be

1529
01:17:17,800 --> 01:17:20,040
Speaker 1: all about us going from place to place, eating and

1530
01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:23,360
Speaker 1: drinking and documenting, but also recreating things that we enjoyed.

1531
01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:25,559
Speaker 1: Y'all got me thinking we need to revisit the idea

1532
01:17:25,840 --> 01:17:28,479
Speaker 1: when our lives sled down, settled down some more. Yeah, man,

1533
01:17:28,760 --> 01:17:33,960
Speaker 1: do it do that shit? Okay? Also about the salad

1534
01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:37,800
Speaker 1: recall because of the E Coli scare, I heard from

1535
01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:40,920
Speaker 1: activists who support farmer workers rights that a lot of

1536
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:43,760
Speaker 1: these outbreaks are because of the harbor working conditions and

1537
01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:46,640
Speaker 1: lack of bathroom facilities. A lot of farmers use the

1538
01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:49,680
Speaker 1: bathroom in the fields. E Coli is a bacteria that

1539
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:52,599
Speaker 1: is found in the intestine, a track of humans and animals,

1540
01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:55,320
Speaker 1: so this checks out. How hopefully Mickey D's can work

1541
01:17:55,360 --> 01:17:59,920
Speaker 1: with some farms that treat their workers more ethically and respectfully. Damn,

1542
01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:03,080
Speaker 1: I didn't here and I heard that. I love the

1543
01:18:03,120 --> 01:18:05,479
Speaker 1: conversation with the soul Foods scholar. I want him to

1544
01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:08,839
Speaker 1: put the barbecue oath on the tree. I would definitely

1545
01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:12,400
Speaker 1: wear that. Another great guest would be Michael Twitty at

1546
01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:15,599
Speaker 1: Coach or Saul on Twitter Yo. I have reached out

1547
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:17,680
Speaker 1: to him in the past and tried to see if

1548
01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:19,600
Speaker 1: we can get him to come on the show, but

1549
01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:22,640
Speaker 1: I have not got a response to him yet, but

1550
01:18:23,479 --> 01:18:26,760
Speaker 1: reach out. Yeah, you know this, like what it's weird

1551
01:18:26,840 --> 01:18:29,040
Speaker 1: with food stuff. It's actually more difficult to get the

1552
01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:34,360
Speaker 1: food people as interviews and stuff because, for one, a

1553
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:36,919
Speaker 1: lot of them don't necessarily come from the podcasting background,

1554
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:40,040
Speaker 1: so you have to worry about sound quality stuff like that. Two,

1555
01:18:40,520 --> 01:18:43,280
Speaker 1: a lot of them don't know if we're like a

1556
01:18:43,360 --> 01:18:46,760
Speaker 1: big deal quote unquote you know, and then three and

1557
01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:49,080
Speaker 1: if you're not the Food Network, they go, who are you?

1558
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:49,720
Speaker 5: Right?

1559
01:18:49,800 --> 01:18:52,680
Speaker 1: And then three they can kind of be notoriously unreliable.

1560
01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:54,640
Speaker 1: And I'll just leave it at that. And that's not

1561
01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 1: shaved to Michael. She's a very I'm sure busy man

1562
01:19:00,080 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 1: this point. But there's just been people that, i mean,

1563
01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:07,760
Speaker 1: some of your faves that we thought, oh, this would

1564
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:09,599
Speaker 1: be a great opportunity for them to spread the word

1565
01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:11,920
Speaker 1: about what they do. It'd be a great opportunity for

1566
01:19:12,000 --> 01:19:15,000
Speaker 1: our show to link up with somebody's phage. I'll get

1567
01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:17,360
Speaker 1: to hear them on the record, give an interview, and

1568
01:19:18,040 --> 01:19:22,120
Speaker 1: the brush off like sometimes last minute, sometimes no notice.

1569
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:25,360
Speaker 1: We set aside whole weekends and shit, and then just nothing,

1570
01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:29,200
Speaker 1: no response. And so you know, one of the things

1571
01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:31,240
Speaker 1: you have to get used to is to know because

1572
01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:35,200
Speaker 1: that's a soft no and it's kind of unprofessional disrespectful sometimes,

1573
01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:37,800
Speaker 1: but you get used to people not replying and shit

1574
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:39,880
Speaker 1: and not realizing like this might be the thing that

1575
01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:43,400
Speaker 1: gets you to more ears, and people start following you

1576
01:19:43,479 --> 01:19:45,639
Speaker 1: on Twitter and start hey, I heard you there, which

1577
01:19:45,680 --> 01:19:47,280
Speaker 1: is one of the reasons we love when you guys

1578
01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,400
Speaker 1: go on social media and you tag these people and

1579
01:19:49,439 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 1: you're like, yo, I heard your interview, I heard this.

1580
01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:54,559
Speaker 1: Appreciate you coming on the show, just you know you're

1581
01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:56,559
Speaker 1: you were very funny and I'm gonna check you out

1582
01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:59,400
Speaker 1: or whatever. So thank you for everybody that takes the

1583
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:01,920
Speaker 1: time out to do because that also helps us get

1584
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:05,200
Speaker 1: better interviews and stuff. He's a full historian. I remember

1585
01:20:05,280 --> 01:20:07,600
Speaker 1: Karen saying she got his book The Cooking Geene a

1586
01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:10,679
Speaker 1: while back, and see him speak recently, and he's awesome. Anyway,

1587
01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:13,920
Speaker 1: love y'all the bitch, thank you, thank you. Uh and yeah,

1588
01:20:14,000 --> 01:20:18,320
Speaker 1: we'll keep trying. We'll definitely keep trying, uh, Eve says

1589
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:20,880
Speaker 1: high Rod and Karen I finished reading this whole got

1590
01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:23,240
Speaker 1: roaches in her crib, and judging from this book and

1591
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:25,920
Speaker 1: kwanme Mill's other titles, I really have to wonder who

1592
01:20:26,160 --> 01:20:28,880
Speaker 1: hurt him. I get the feeling that he doesn't like

1593
01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:30,920
Speaker 1: women very much. This book was so out of pocket,

1594
01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:33,240
Speaker 1: and Fred Kreischer was a hot ass mess. That's all

1595
01:20:33,360 --> 01:20:35,080
Speaker 1: that all be. And said, hell, yeah, I'm about the

1596
01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:37,160
Speaker 1: follow up book. This whole still got roaches and now

1597
01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:39,479
Speaker 1: rats in her crib. I can't wait for the book

1598
01:20:39,479 --> 01:20:42,600
Speaker 1: discussion because it's gonna be off the chain. Yeah. I

1599
01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:45,040
Speaker 1: mean that was the other thing, because people was like, well, y'

1600
01:20:45,120 --> 01:20:47,479
Speaker 1: y'all have to do this next book by Kwan. I'm like, listen,

1601
01:20:48,080 --> 01:20:51,920
Speaker 1: we start war one author, we'll see. I'm not gonna

1602
01:20:51,920 --> 01:20:54,360
Speaker 1: turn this to the Kuan Mill book. Club, because that's

1603
01:20:54,400 --> 01:20:56,880
Speaker 1: not what it is. We're gonna bounce around, reread it around,

1604
01:20:56,960 --> 01:20:59,360
Speaker 1: We'll read other people. That's the point of a book club.

1605
01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:01,720
Speaker 2: That we won't but we may come back.

1606
01:21:01,840 --> 01:21:03,559
Speaker 1: But you know, it was the point of the book

1607
01:21:03,560 --> 01:21:05,960
Speaker 1: club is spread it around and to get everybody get

1608
01:21:06,040 --> 01:21:09,600
Speaker 1: some shine, right, and yeah, we will be discussing it.

1609
01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:11,720
Speaker 1: And that was something that stuck out to me as

1610
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:15,120
Speaker 1: well in the first few chapters, was like, so he

1611
01:21:15,240 --> 01:21:17,360
Speaker 1: got some issues with his own paper, mamas ay of

1612
01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:21,000
Speaker 1: this autobiographical or it's just like, you know, it's almost

1613
01:21:21,040 --> 01:21:23,640
Speaker 1: like that Twitter Nigga shit where motherfucker's be like, you know,

1614
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:26,599
Speaker 1: these women are terrible to their children and the men

1615
01:21:26,800 --> 01:21:28,720
Speaker 1: just want to do right. And I'm like, I mean

1616
01:21:28,760 --> 01:21:30,880
Speaker 1: that nigga is a drug dealer too. I mean he's

1617
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:33,560
Speaker 1: in jail. I mean, he could be there for his

1618
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:35,719
Speaker 1: kid if he wasn't out here selling drugs and getting

1619
01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:37,479
Speaker 1: locked up. But hey, what am I supposed to say?

1620
01:21:38,560 --> 01:21:41,240
Speaker 1: But we'll see. You know, I think it would take

1621
01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:44,880
Speaker 1: reading more of his books to truly get the vibe

1622
01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:47,280
Speaker 1: of that. And you know, also it could be just

1623
01:21:48,040 --> 01:21:49,320
Speaker 1: his voice as a.

1624
01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:51,960
Speaker 2: Writer, and everybody's voice is different.

1625
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:54,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, like he might not be like that, but you know,

1626
01:21:54,680 --> 01:21:59,800
Speaker 1: I don't know, Will says a bra hashtag rod Lewis abra.

1637
01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:48,040
Speaker 1: I was gonna go to uh after seeing ray Lewis's

Speaker 1: a couple of young men in neither guidance, so I

1655
01:23:49,479 --> 01:23:53,960
Speaker 1: talked to them. I think I left one of them out.

01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:58,679
Speaker 1: Where did I put that last one? Put on Facebook? Uh? Anyway,

1657
01:23:58,760 --> 01:24:01,640

Speaker 2: I'm trying to motivate you.

01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:31,760
Speaker 1: See, this is how it happened with our young black men.

01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:34,760
Speaker 1: They fall into crime because they don't come to the

1678
01:25:00,840 --> 01:25:03,280
Speaker 2: I guess we're a game because that's the only tattoo

1679
01:25:03,280 --> 01:25:03,639
Speaker 2: you got.

1680
01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:07,360
Speaker 1: Well, some people would say it's a game, the black game,

01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:10,160
Speaker 1: he tips, So y'all a game, y'all a part of

1682
01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:11,040
Speaker 1: a game. Didn't you know this?

1683
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:21,920
Speaker 8: When I came into gym, pretty baby, pretty go? That

1684
01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:26,360
Speaker 8: was that was how I came into gym, Joe.

1685
01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:27,400
Speaker 2: That was wrong with you.

1686
01:25:28,320 --> 01:25:30,960
Speaker 1: I do the left step for the holy ghosts and

1687
01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:33,680
Speaker 1: the right stuff. You need to learn to take responsibility,

1688
01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:37,040
Speaker 1: young man off. Sorry now this man. We so my

1689
01:25:37,200 --> 01:25:40,439
Speaker 1: team we went to and to the start today. We

1690
01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:42,240
Speaker 1: won one and we lose one. And we won one

1691
01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:45,800
Speaker 1: and we lose one. And finally we played this team

1692
01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:49,920
Speaker 1: uh twice. We had a rematch at the end and

1693
01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:53,760
Speaker 1: we beat them both times. The first time we beat them,

1694
01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:56,400
Speaker 1: and they said rematch, so I said, okay, we'll do

1695
01:25:56,479 --> 01:25:59,400
Speaker 1: a rematch. That's cool. So we did the rematch and

1696
01:26:00,960 --> 01:26:02,960
Speaker 1: in the middle of the game that we was down

1697
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:06,080
Speaker 1: about eight points or so, and uh, this young man

1698
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:08,560
Speaker 1: Jerry turned to me and was like, you want to

1699
01:26:08,640 --> 01:26:11,439
Speaker 1: rematch after this? And I said no, and he said

1700
01:26:11,479 --> 01:26:14,200
Speaker 1: he laughed at me. He said, oh, so y'all just

1701
01:26:14,280 --> 01:26:16,800
Speaker 1: gonna lose and leave. I said no, We're gonna win

1702
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,800
Speaker 1: this game too, and he said, hi Hi. I laughed

1703
01:26:19,800 --> 01:26:22,240
Speaker 1: at him and his Dane laughed it off, and then

1704
01:26:22,600 --> 01:26:24,599
Speaker 1: we perceived to whoop they monkey ass, and we won

1705
01:26:24,720 --> 01:26:26,800
Speaker 1: that game, and I hit the game winning shot from three,

1706
01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:31,760
Speaker 1: and Jerry sat down and he started blaming his teammates,

1707
01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:36,400
Speaker 1: very discouraging. You know, it was it was everybody's fault,

1708
01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:38,080
Speaker 1: but Jerry's fault. And I said, but if you would

1709
01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:40,800
Speaker 1: have never said nothing to me, I was ready to

1710
01:26:40,880 --> 01:26:42,680
Speaker 1: let y'all win because I'm trying to do something for

1711
01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:44,760
Speaker 1: the young kids to keep y'all off the street. But

1712
01:26:44,960 --> 01:26:49,200
Speaker 1: because you said something, I got activated and I had

1713
01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:52,799
Speaker 1: to make sure y'all lost. But you shouldn't blame your teammates.

1714
01:26:52,840 --> 01:26:58,439
Speaker 1: So That's what this call was about. You gotta take

1715
01:26:58,520 --> 01:27:02,040
Speaker 1: more responsibility. You can't blame everybody else for why you're.

1716
01:27:01,920 --> 01:27:05,160
Speaker 7: Losing out here until you believe in yourself, like I

1717
01:27:05,280 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 7: believe in these brothers right here around the court, like Justin,

1718
01:27:09,400 --> 01:27:13,840
Speaker 7: like Daniel, like Frank. When you believe in yourself, that's

1719
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:15,720
Speaker 7: when you're gonna elevate your game to be.

1720
01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:20,760
Speaker 1: A Hall of Fame WYMCA player like me Baltimore out

1721
01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:23,840
Speaker 1: I had to put it off for the city, even

1722
01:27:23,840 --> 01:27:26,360
Speaker 1: though that's not my city. And then I had one

1723
01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:28,160
Speaker 1: while I talked to Justin moulm Trump. I think a

1724
01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:32,280
Speaker 1: man uploaded the Facebook cause like right after we went

1725
01:27:32,360 --> 01:27:34,360
Speaker 1: to and two, Damon had to go because it was

1726
01:27:34,400 --> 01:27:37,280
Speaker 1: almost nine and he had to do something. But Justin

1727
01:27:37,360 --> 01:27:38,880
Speaker 1: was about to lead too, because we had like a

1728
01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:42,320
Speaker 1: three game weight and I was like, Justin, you can't

1729
01:27:42,400 --> 01:27:44,960
Speaker 1: give up on yourself, and you can't give up on

1730
01:27:45,040 --> 01:27:48,360
Speaker 1: your dreams and leave, you know, because if you leave now,

1731
01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:50,560
Speaker 1: how we might be able to get back on the

1732
01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:53,360
Speaker 1: court and get some more wins. You know. But when

1733
01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:56,439
Speaker 1: you when it's the early morning like this and you're busy,

1734
01:27:57,120 --> 01:27:59,240
Speaker 1: you start coming up with excuses in your mind. Like

1735
01:27:59,640 --> 01:28:02,280
Speaker 1: I can. I gotta go get the podcast there early,

1736
01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:06,200
Speaker 1: I can get some yard work, I can go hang

1737
01:28:06,280 --> 01:28:09,519
Speaker 1: out with my wife, you know all, you know, lotable things.

1738
01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:12,400
Speaker 1: But at the same time, they ain't gonna get us

1739
01:28:12,439 --> 01:28:15,200
Speaker 1: no more wins. That'll make you be in the car

1740
01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:18,280
Speaker 1: on the way home rather than you know where you

1741
01:28:18,439 --> 01:28:21,320
Speaker 1: need to be on the court getting us some more w's.

1742
01:28:22,479 --> 01:28:24,920
Speaker 1: I gotta go to my Facebook page to find it's. Sorry, guys,

1743
01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:30,160
Speaker 1: it's moving slow, you know how it is. But yeah,

1744
01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:33,000
Speaker 1: I was using like hashtag rod Lewis because I was

1745
01:28:33,040 --> 01:28:35,439
Speaker 1: inspired by his speech so much at the Hall of

1746
01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:39,720
Speaker 1: Fame that I was like, I'm gonna live my life

1747
01:28:39,800 --> 01:28:42,400
Speaker 1: this way too, you know, be inspirational to my city

1748
01:28:42,960 --> 01:28:45,200
Speaker 1: and to the black people that lived there and give

1749
01:28:45,200 --> 01:28:47,760
Speaker 1: them a good example of what to do right, you know,

1750
01:28:47,800 --> 01:28:49,240
Speaker 1: because a lot of these people are not doing right

1751
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:54,160
Speaker 1: out here. Yeah, okay, let me see that's not it.

1752
01:28:54,560 --> 01:29:00,800
Speaker 1: That's the one I just played, and I'll shout out

1753
01:29:00,800 --> 01:29:02,640
Speaker 1: to the people that listen to balls. People that was like,

1754
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:05,880
Speaker 1: I did not think you were going to do that, dah,

1755
01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:09,120
Speaker 1: I said I was gonna do it. Why y'all shot?

1756
01:29:09,800 --> 01:29:12,400
Speaker 1: Am I not a man of my word. Is it

1757
01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:13,120
Speaker 1: because I'm black?

1758
01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:14,280
Speaker 3: Hm?

1759
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:17,640
Speaker 1: You think everything's a joke for your amusement. Some of

1760
01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:20,640
Speaker 1: this stuff is serious and like lowering the crime rate

1761
01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:24,519
Speaker 1: of Charlotte Greater Metro Area. This is because this is

1762
01:29:24,560 --> 01:29:27,160
Speaker 1: the cause that I take seriously giving back to the community.

1763
01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:29,439
Speaker 2: Why is there nothing else to do?

1764
01:29:29,880 --> 01:29:34,360
Speaker 1: Sound exactly? Crime is still gonna happen whether I'm around

1765
01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:38,160
Speaker 1: or not. Uh what, I'm not playing? But when I'm

1766
01:29:38,200 --> 01:29:43,120
Speaker 1: playing crime going down? Why does it take so long?

1767
01:29:43,200 --> 01:29:45,040
Speaker 1: I don't know why it's taking a long low Even

1768
01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:50,000
Speaker 1: this is not embarrassing. I'm sorry, guys. Ah facebook page

1769
01:29:50,080 --> 01:29:53,200
Speaker 1: is just like too many people commenting on these videos.

1770
01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:58,960
Speaker 1: All right, let's just give it some more time. But

1771
01:29:59,120 --> 01:30:00,160
Speaker 1: who roll there to say this?

1772
01:30:00,720 --> 01:30:00,840
Speaker 7: Uh?

1773
01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:06,479
Speaker 1: Will will thank you, appreciate you following me and uh

1774
01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:09,320
Speaker 1: my excellent. Okay, this is me trying to motivate Justin

1775
01:30:09,400 --> 01:30:11,800
Speaker 1: to stay one more game. It's the last clip that

1776
01:30:11,880 --> 01:30:14,320
Speaker 1: I'll play before we get out of here because we

1777
01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:16,160
Speaker 1: do have something else to do later on the day.

1778
01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:25,280
Speaker 1: All right, how do I make this bigger? Okay? All right,

1779
01:30:26,280 --> 01:30:33,760
Speaker 1: and I think it's gonna work now, Justin, you can't leave.

1780
01:30:34,400 --> 01:30:37,599
Speaker 1: You gotta now, By the way, hey, one more game.

1781
01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:37,800
Speaker 4: I know.

1782
01:30:38,280 --> 01:30:40,280
Speaker 1: By the way, this is right after we lost the

1783
01:30:40,400 --> 01:30:43,760
Speaker 1: second game, so we were at our lowest, you know.

1784
01:30:44,320 --> 01:30:46,280
Speaker 1: And what I did before I even talked to Justin.

1785
01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:49,639
Speaker 1: I got on my knees and I went to God first,

1786
01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:56,000
Speaker 1: and I said, God, how can you forsake me at

1787
01:30:56,040 --> 01:30:59,720
Speaker 1: the y MCA on this Saturday morning? I'm two and

1788
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:03,280
Speaker 1: who they don't believe I'm stepping in your honor. The

1789
01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:06,720
Speaker 1: only way to show your true power is to help

1790
01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:10,040
Speaker 1: me out and nobody else, because I'm the most important

1791
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:14,479
Speaker 1: person in his YMCA. And God answered my prayers. And

1792
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:19,960
Speaker 1: after he said, you will win some games. All you

1793
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:21,560
Speaker 1: gotta do is get back on the court, and I

1794
01:31:21,640 --> 01:31:24,760
Speaker 1: said I would do that, and I went and took

1795
01:31:24,800 --> 01:31:27,280
Speaker 1: that knowledge to pass it on the Justin and it

1796
01:31:27,479 --> 01:31:29,840
Speaker 1: was very disheartened at the time and ready to go home,

1797
01:31:30,640 --> 01:31:33,800
Speaker 1: feeling that he's lowest. And that's when I said this

1798
01:31:33,920 --> 01:31:36,000
Speaker 1: to him, you can't leave.

1799
01:31:36,600 --> 01:31:38,400
Speaker 7: You gotta play one more game. I know we just

1800
01:31:38,479 --> 01:31:41,920
Speaker 7: took a loss, but when Jesus took a loss, what

1801
01:31:42,080 --> 01:31:45,160
Speaker 7: did he do? He took three days off and.

1802
01:31:45,240 --> 01:31:47,960
Speaker 1: He came out the cave and it came back. You

1803
01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:50,160
Speaker 1: have to for give of these brothers, not for what

1804
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:53,120
Speaker 1: they did to you. But like that time I was

1805
01:31:53,160 --> 01:31:56,120
Speaker 1: allegedly accused of a murder that I did not commit

1806
01:31:58,040 --> 01:32:01,960
Speaker 1: and a suit that is missing. Did I give up? Nope.

1807
01:32:02,640 --> 01:32:05,400
Speaker 7: I got back on that field and I took a

1808
01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:08,439
Speaker 7: left step in my euro step that was for the

1809
01:32:08,520 --> 01:32:11,720
Speaker 7: Holy Ghost. I took a right step in my euro

1810
01:32:11,880 --> 01:32:15,759
Speaker 7: step that was for Jesus. And I took a foward

1811
01:32:15,800 --> 01:32:19,599
Speaker 7: step in my euro step and that was for James Hardy.

1812
01:32:20,280 --> 01:32:22,320
Speaker 7: Then I took two steps to the back for the

1813
01:32:22,400 --> 01:32:24,599
Speaker 7: fate away because those were also for change.

1814
01:32:24,760 --> 01:32:24,880
Speaker 3: Art.

1815
01:32:25,840 --> 01:32:29,800
Speaker 1: Come on, Justine, don't give up. That's the kind of

1816
01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:33,760
Speaker 1: motivation I do. You know, that's why my team stay winning.

1817
01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:36,000
