00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: time I was on Homegrown Radio with Chuck Distel DJ Head.

13
00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 1: It's a really doped like radio podcast. Uh, really important

14
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: now here in the West coast, like just specifically. L A. H.

Speaker 1: out head. Anyway, he made this statement about um the

19
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: way that like the other dudes that the musicians we

20
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: listened to and the street dudes we listened to, or

21
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: that we were kind of like raised up under, you

00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like r O G S right,

23
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: and they what they say about sort of young rap

24
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: is He's like, dude, all my ogs be like these

25
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: young nick it's weird. Just y'all, Like I don't understand y'all,

26
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: like just net banging, like Internet gang banging, like where

27
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,679
Speaker 1: it's like why you you know, you trying to funk

28
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: somebody in the comments section, Like what's wrong with y'all?

29
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: Like that's that's weird to him, like y'all weirdos, you know,

30
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: saying like that's the way they felt about the way

31
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: the young dudes move and what Chuck was saying, because

32
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:34,959
Speaker 1: it went from being cool to sell drugs two being

33
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: cool to do drugs, you know, like that's kind of

34
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: where you know, at the time I was on the show,

35
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: that's where music went. And now it's like it's kind

36
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: of cool to see like it's getting a little cooler

37
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: to to like get off that, you know what I'm saying,

38
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: because well, we were all depressed. It turns out we

39
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: just need therapy. It seems like it seems like that's

40
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: where like if I'm looking at like sort of younger

41
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: it probably like outside of just to like drill music,

42
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: you know, just to like you know, real hood street stuff.

43
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: It's like, actually, you know, we should be financially stable

44
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: and you know, go get the money. You drunk and

45
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: high all the time. I can't go get the money,

46
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But anyway, he was like,

47
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:21,799
Speaker 1: at the time, that's what he he was talking about, Like

48
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,680
Speaker 1: it became cool to just do drugs rather than sell it.

49
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: Like you know, we make fun of drug addicts. We

50
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,399
Speaker 1: just make fun of crackheads, you know what I'm saying.

51
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: So he was like, you little Nicklas is weird, right,

52
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: And what he was saying was like, okay, so when

53
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: y'all was rapping about selling drugs, ah, y'all was doing drugs,

54
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: he was like, who do you who do you think

55
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: you were selling to? Deep saying you were selling to

56
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: them as kids and then they grew up on the

57
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: drugs you sold them, so you could call them weird,

58
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: but they they built from your thing, you know what

59
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Of course, that's like a negative way. This

60
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 1: is if this example is a very negative way to

61
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: look at it, you know what I'm saying. But the

62
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: motif is still like y'are different, like y'all built different.

63
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: And a lot of times people say that about when

64
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: you when you from the old guard, you know, you

65
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: cut from a different cloth, you know, you know, they

66
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: don't make them like they're used to. You know what

67
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You're usually trying to say it's a disk

68
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: to the young dudes because they're not like you. But

69
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: there's another way to look at it, to be like, well, y'all,

70
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: like look at use the terminator like some of y'all,

71
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,520
Speaker 1: you know, we are no Schwartzenegger's out here like robots

72
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: from the future. But then the liquid T three's come,

73
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,360
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like the ones that come

74
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: in and list like man, them things can shape shift,

75
00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: they do. Like I'm like, yo, we're we're robots like you.

76
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: They're liquid you know what I'm saying. So it's like

77
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: they are different, but they they what you want them

78
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: to be. Is it advances from who you are rather

79
00:04:55,800 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: than like devolving. But what ever they are, you have

80
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: you to think the environment for which you fostered these

81
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: little homies, these little niggas, these these these these young shooters.

82
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,479
Speaker 1: I mean it came from somewhere. We got some brand

83
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: new faces running for office in this mid term. I

84
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 1: want to talk about these young leagues because they built

85
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: different politics y'all, so look that the changing of the

86
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 1: guard is inevitable. We make fun of boomers, but boomers

87
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: were once children and when they grow up, they had

88
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: a revolution. You know, when they become young adults, they

89
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 1: do their own revolution. They change the world whenever, and

90
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,039
Speaker 1: then they become what they are, you know what I'm saying.

91
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: And then Gen X that's who the boomers gave birth to,

92
00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: and some of them the like early millennials, you feel me.

93
00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: But the Gen X kids, you know who they and

94
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,279
Speaker 1: they they in their fifties now, they were a product

95
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: of their parents. You know who was flower power and

96
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 1: peace love and fighting the war. And then they became

97
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: yuppi's you know what I'm saying. They became the ones

98
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 1: making all the money once they got into the to

99
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: the business. You feel me, right, And their kids gen

100
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 1: X is just like you know, they saw the Berlin

101
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: Wall fall like they was teens when like the Berlin

102
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: Wall fell, you know what I'm saying, into the car war,

103
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like they saw horrible economic crashes,

104
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and at this so gen

105
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: X comes out being like nothing matters, Like you know

106
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like we don't give a ship. Authority

107
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,239
Speaker 1: don't matter, Your plans don't matter, you know what I'm saying,

108
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: Like we're just gonna do we should doing. We they

109
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: tear down systems because they're like who gives Joe said,

110
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: like that's kind of how they how they run. You know,

111
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: in all these generations produced politicians, you know what I'm saying,

112
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: they produced artists. You feel me there, that's because it's

113
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: it's us. But the cycle continues. Then you become the establishment,

114
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: and then there's another disruptor. You feel me, you know

115
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: in a in a in a direct hood motif. It's

116
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: like my dad and them. You know, my father was

117
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: a panther, you know what I'm saying. In his lovemies

118
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,160
Speaker 1: were like that first generation of of like crips and bloods,

119
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And they you know, they

120
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: were street brawlers, like you know, there was knuckle up,

121
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 1: that's you know, get damn jack. You know what I'm saying,

122
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: Like the first that first wave, the the early eighties, dudes,

123
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, in late seventies, early eighties, dudes,

124
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: like you know, they was you know, they was knuckling up.

125
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: It wasn't until crack when you know, the guns started

126
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: coming in. I'm saying that everything changed and it was

127
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: like and then and and the ogs was like, man,

128
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 1: why y'all are like trying to get stuff with all

129
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 1: this guns. Now, when I was a young child, I

130
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 1: was a I was a young child of the of

131
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: the year of the drive by years. You know what

132
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, that's what my early childhood was. Yuys

133
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: gonna drive by started happening. But then things changed, like

134
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: some of the ogs came back and was like, I

135
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: see what you are doing, but this ain't g like

136
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: it's not like it's kind of cowardly, like if you're

137
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: gonna because remember they were the ones that first put

138
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: the gun, that first got the guns. And was like,

139
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: now you run up on it, You run up on

140
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: a dude, put that in his face, let him know

141
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 1: what it is. You just drive by and leave. Now

142
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,760
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, You stand on your square,

143
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:47,319
Speaker 1: you know. But then was like, man, just it's kind

144
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: of it's kind of corny to like shoot out the

145
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: window and go. But like I didn't think that I

146
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: was scared of him, because, like I said, that's what

147
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 1: the big dudes were doing, you know what I'm saying.

148
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,760
Speaker 1: But by the time I got of age, like drive

149
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 1: by is kind of it kind of stopped, you know,

150
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: and the dudes, you know, sort of of my crop

151
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: were like started to be like, oh, we need to

152
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 1: get this money. They started following a little more like

153
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: the sort of mafia kind of moving where it's like nah, man,

154
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: like play it low, you know what I'm saying, Like,

155
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 1: don't be so obvious with your colors, like you know

156
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 1: who you are. You wrap your square, but like man,

00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 1: like you're messing up the money, like go get the money.

158
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 1: So that gives birth to like the nipsey hustles of

159
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: it all, who like word shooters. They come from the streets,

160
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: but they're there smart like these like hybrid like no,

161
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: like what but they're all products of what came before them.

162
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: I know this is a long explanation, but like like

163
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: see see what it is and see how one begat other.

164
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,000
Speaker 1: And each one of these people thought those little niggas

165
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 1: was weird, yo, I'm saying, and wish them little dudes

166
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: would listen to him because they got game to give you, right.

167
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: But then every once in a while, of course, we

168
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: have like the few that like no, we no, I know,

169
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: I get it, Like I'm I'm like, you have a

170
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: young person that's cut from the cloth of the old ways,

171
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. And then those are like

172
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 1: really special ones. They can bring that that new young

173
00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,719
Speaker 1: energy and then apply that wisdom you could get from

174
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 1: the old heads and from that experience. And then you

175
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 1: get someone like a Nipsey, you know what I mean,

176
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: Like a Kendrick Lamar. You get somebody like that, you know,

177
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: and who are now Actually it would if if Nipsey

178
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: like didn't pass, Like they're becoming elder statesman, you know

179
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Like Kendricks becoming like you know, he's

180
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,160
Speaker 1: the studio album like he's becoming you know, like like

181
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: he's becoming a vet, you know what I'm saying. And

182
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 1: these young shooters who like, you know, especially like if

183
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 1: we're to go going to the hip hop thing, who've

184
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 1: never you know, they never recorded analog, Like they've never

185
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: recorded on a two inch tape. They never had to

186
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 1: like get the mix tape off without the Internet. They

187
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: only know streaming, you know what I'm saying, Like, and

188
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: they only know how to game the game by via TikTok,

189
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:19,360
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like these dudes that like

190
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 1: they that's all they know, you know, And our attitude

191
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: was always like, yo, if you could apply you know

192
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, the the hustle of like having to

193
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: go to open mics and having to pound the ground

194
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: and having to like send out press kits and all

195
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 1: this good stuff. Like if you have the hustle that

196
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 1: it takes from that. But with the wisdom of how

197
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: y'all move now and how songs actually break, oh you get,

198
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: you get amazing things. And honestly, I feel like this

199
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 1: can help you understand some of these young things running

200
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: for office. Let's get to it, alright, So back from break,

201
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: I think what's so interesting about this is like that

202
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 1: is not just a phenomenon of the left or the right.

203
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: These young dudes is built different, and they think different,

204
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 1: and they move different in the and the and the

205
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: choices they making. You know what I'm saying. It's people

206
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: always talk about in in politics like the establishment or uh,

207
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: you know, the center of the party leadership, and stuff

208
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 1: like that. Um, but again, like I can't stress enough

209
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: the party leadership used to be young shooters and you

210
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: just wake up one day and you're like, oh, I'm

211
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,920
Speaker 1: I guess I'm I guess I'm old you know. And

212
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 1: apparently that cycle last really long because you know, old

213
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: jo Biden. You know what I'm saying, that's an old man.

214
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 1: You know, uh you old old old Nancy. That's that's

215
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: she's been around the world. And now yeah, yeah, you

216
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But yeah, this mid term election,

217
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: we're about to see like the first like gen Z

218
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: politicians and it's like, ye're not They're not teenagers, y'all.

219
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: They're not children. Like it's the little foods running for office.

220
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: Like you just you just wake up one day and

221
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: like the kids just grown and they're running for office.

222
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 1: And listen, they built different, y'all. And you may think listen, listen, listen.

223
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: The politicians running against him, they think, like yo, y'all,

224
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 1: the little niggas is weird. Like now, man, y'all, y'all

00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: ain't got y'all ain't got it, you ain't got the juice,

226
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 1: or you better use some wisdom and understand that. Like

227
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: you gotta listen to the kids, bro. You listen to

228
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:40,640
Speaker 1: the kid bro. That is a Kanye West joke anyway.

229
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: So NPR has kind of been doing some some of

230
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: the some of the producers over there has been doing

231
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: like these like stories about you know, reporting about the

232
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: first like gen Z is running for office and why

233
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 1: this year is because you, I mean, you gotta be

234
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: twenty five too, to live, live, to sit in the

235
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: House of Representatives. The first Gen's ears or five. Now

236
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: let that sink in. They're you, oh fam Now one

237
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,880
Speaker 1: would think that, you know, at the motif is like

238
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: all right, if they're young, you know, they got spry

239
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: new ideas and they're progressive, right, And some of them are.

240
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 1: Some of them are like wildly progressive, like super hell

241
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: of progressive, and then there's some that are freakishly pro Trump.

242
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 1: The big lie this not he's still our president. We

243
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: need to go back, I mean, staunchly conservative. But of

244
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: the little handful that's running, what you notice what keeps

245
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: showing up at all of them is it ain't no moderates.

246
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: That's crazy to me. But but again, they built different.

247
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,480
Speaker 1: Now why are they built different because of the people

248
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: before them? What when where the moderates come from. What

249
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: is a moderate? Yo, that's a moderate air quotes. That's

250
00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: that's Bill Clinton, that's you know, for in his time

251
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: kind of you know the Bush Bush Jr. I mean

252
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: like moderately moderate. You know what I'm saying, Barack Obama,

253
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 1: Like they came in as now think about it like this.

254
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: They came in being like, yo, we gotta work across

255
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: the table here. Man, it's like this polarizing stuff like, man,

256
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,680

257
00:16:57,000 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: their children of a Ford and Ray Agan. You know

258
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like, man, when you when you was

259
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: when you was a young shooter during that time when

260

Speaker 1: I mean, however it is in politics new booty is

341
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: it just means I mean the literal translation is what

342
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: it sounds like, you know, but it's just it came

343
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: from jail. A new guy comes in, it's new booty. Anyway.

344
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 1: The point is a new guy, you know, it's some

345
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: new blood. Let's say new blood better. But yeah, you

347
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: once you grow up a little later. So anyway, y'all

348
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 1: if we're gonna get any further, Like y'all need some

349
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,640

350
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 1: it just ain't working for them, and we've been outside.

351
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,600
Speaker 1: I think that's what's super interesting about again this crop

352
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: of kids is like yo, they actually been involved in

353
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: politics for a while. But again that's our fault. That's

354
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: why they've been in politics so long was because got

355
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 1: dog like you know, culture caught on fire. So look,

356
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: you're gonna be an O g R oh ahead, you

357
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, will you remember that episode?

358
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 1: You're gonna be all ahead and be like god, you

00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: know what these little niggas is weird? Or you're don't

360
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: tap in with the young links, see what's up? You know,

361
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: tap in? But then the difficulty was tapping in. And

362
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: it's the part that we as the citizenship really I

363
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: think about, like you know, when you if they start

364
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: like like legit like mentoring these dudes, you know, these

365
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: these these young shooters, It's like, do you mentor the

366
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,320
Speaker 1: zeal out of them? Do they become just as like

367
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:50,159
Speaker 1: jaded as everybody else, you know, like or just or

368
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 1: that's how the system don't change? You know what I'm saying,

369
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:59,719
Speaker 1: because all they're doing is like learning the ways that

370
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 1: they is run Like, you can't disrupt if you're just

371
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: gonna learn the ways that you come. But on the

372
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: other hand, you can't just be walking in here all

373
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 1: Johnny come lately. You know what I'm saying, All spring chicken, like,

374
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: you know what you're talking about? When it's like family,

375
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: don't you don't sit once? You're gonna sit down somewhere,

376
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like you may need to

377
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 1: get us sat down somewhere. You feel me, y'all know it.

378
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: Sat down somewhere he is. I don't have to explain

379
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 1: that we may have to take several seats. But when

380
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,119
Speaker 1: you just try to check the young things like that

381
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: on something like hey home, you need you know what

382
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 1: I mean saying, you know what you're talking about, Like

383
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: a lot of times like that's you don't age yourself out.

384
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: So now you ain't got no pull with these young

385
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 1: shooters you I think about. I mean, it's a lot

386
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: to think about if you if you want to stay

387
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 1: in politics. And we all know people that do this well,

388
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,399

420
00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 1: It's it's like when you got you got sense enough

421
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 1: to be like, look, man, like I'm just not gonna TikTok.

424
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:43,560
Speaker 1: that's y'all's thing. But if you can influence them dudes,

425
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, them young younglings, give him

426
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 1: the game that you want without jading him, then we're

427
00:26:50,280 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 1: talking about a whole different story. Yeah. I think in

428
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: the Behind the Police episodes, we talked about when cops

429
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 1: go on right along after they finish the Police Academy,

430
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 1: not the movie, but after you finished the Police Academy.

431
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: You know, before you like certified officer, you gotta do

432
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 1: ride alongs. But the veteran cop that take you on

433
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: the ride along, he like a week from retirement, and

434
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: he's just tired, you know what I'm saying, Like he's

435
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 1: been seen the worst. Yeah, he don't even like you.

436
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,920
Speaker 1: That man like counting the clock. He's Stanley out this

437
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 1: mug you said, that's a from the office, Like just

438
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 1: like I don't be here, I don't care about none

439
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: of y'all, you know what I'm saying. And he didn't

440
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: seem the worst of the city. So this young sprye

441
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 1: like you know officer that feels like he got new ideas.

442
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: He's gonna change the way that we do policing. Like

443
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,000
Speaker 1: maybe he was an organizer. Maybe that kid got in

444
00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 1: here and he was just like, dude, we need to

445
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: role form rather than abolish. I don't know, whatever it case,

446
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,520
Speaker 1: whatever the place. Maybe he get in there and then

447
00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 1: he ride with this tough cop that hate the whole thing.

448
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 1: And for him to be considered one of the homies,

449
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 1: he got to start messing around and acting like this

450
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 1: old head who hey, everything showing him the rope, how

451
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 1: to sprinkle some cracking on somebody. You know what I'm saying.

452
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: You don't say he had a gun, doesn't worry about it,

453
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: Just say he had a gun, you know, giving him

454
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: all kind of like you know, bad takes. I mean,

455
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: that's how that's how the cycle continue, you know. But

456
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: the question is like, how do you keep that collective

457
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: knowledge and wisdom about your culture and your your your

458
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 1: work without passing on the jaded nous and letting these

459
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: these young shooters be young shooters rather than being like them.

460
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 1: This is weird. They just built different. These fools have

461
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: been marching, they've been putting together mutual aid, and at

462
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: some point when that happens, at some point you realize,

463
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: like I need to see that at the table. I

464
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: need to know what I'm talking about, because you can

465
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,480
Speaker 1: only do so much from the outside. Now. There's a

466
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 1: flip side of that motif to where it's like, once

467
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 1: you get at the table, you like, this tablet is trash.

468
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: I don't even know why. It's like there's nothing anyway.

469
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 1: But we're not talking about that just yet, you know.

470
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: But right now. They're like, look, we deserve a seat

471
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: at the table. So when talking about you know this thing, uh,

472
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: you can't help but think about the crop of young

473
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: shooters that came in before them, the millennials right, who

474
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: also had young spride great you know, disrupting ideas, but

475
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 1: their form of disruption us again this like moderate Who's like, look, man,

476
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: we can make real change if we learn how to

477
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 1: unify like unity not uniformity, like you know, oneness not sameness.

478
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: That you know, we can reach across party lines. We can,

479
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: we can we know, speak to our better selves and

480
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: and we can make a better world. Like that was

481
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: their idea of saying, like they don't have to be

482
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: just as all this posture and like, listen, red, we

483
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 1: all want the same things. We all want the same things.

484
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: Let's let's make the world better. Let's make our nation better.

485
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:39,719
Speaker 1: But these kids build different. They like, nah, gramps, listen,

486
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:46,480
Speaker 1: is we getting healthcare not? You know, is America great

487
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: or not? Man? F Yo, Like, no, I'm not reaching

488
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: across nobody the matter fact, I'm gonna do everything I

489
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: can to make sure the plans that you have and

490
00:30:55,400 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: don't happen, because they literally are like, yo, our lizard

491
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:06,840
Speaker 1: brain is always triggered, like we're in crisis because this

492
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,440
Speaker 1: in law gotta change now. Like that's so crazy that

493
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,040
Speaker 1: both extremes believe they in crisis and probably are feeling it,

494
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So they're like, no, I'm

495
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 1: not ready, man, you'll see it at the table. Flip

496
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: the table. And finally, the remaining question is like why

497
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: do a whole episode on this, you know what? Difence

498
00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:32,320
Speaker 1: doesn't make it like gen Z, you know, like it

499
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 1: just doesn't seem like it was a heavy enough topic.

500
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: But let me tell you why in this very gross anecdote.

501
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 1: You know, if you've lived in you know, sort of

502
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: low income areas, it's kind of a rule about roaches.

503
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: I know, just stay with me. If you see one,

504
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: there's a hundred of them. You know. If there's an

505
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:56,520
Speaker 1: ant crawling across, like the insect crawling across your kitchen table,

506
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: just follow the trail. There are drid's more coming. Especially

507
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 1: if you're living in apartment. Yeah, of course, there's like

508
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: a what happens in the department is like I don't

509
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: care how clean you keep your house. If your neighbors

510
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: are dirty, you're gonna get their roaches. It just sucks. Now,

511
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 1: I'm not comparing politicians. He's like, wait, Congress is roaches. Now.

512
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,959
Speaker 1: Know what I'm trying to say is that there are

513
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: just a handful that are here that are running this cycle,

514
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 1: this election cycle. But you have to remember Joe Biden,

515
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 1: you know, joined the Congress when he was thirty. That

516
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:45,200
Speaker 1: man said me nine years old. Yeah, So like what

517
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: you're looking at is this is the first sign of

518
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 1: whos gonna run our nation for a long time. These

519
00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,720
Speaker 1: people are all in the news that we're talking about,

520
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: like they've been in government forty fifty years. So like

521
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 1: you better be paying attention. This is gonna be when

522
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: you're collecting your soul security. You know what I'm saying.

523
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 1: If so security exists, you feel me like this this

524
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: cool finish look. C. S Lewis, M Now I feel

525
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: like I'm jumping. I know I'm jumping, but like following me. C.

526
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 1: S Lewis, he has a saying and I think it's

527
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: in it's I think it's in mere Christianity. He was like, look,

528
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: in a hundred and fifty years, the planet's going to

529
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: have an entirely new group of humans and the whole

530
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 1: of brand. Just think about every hundred fifty years, it's

531
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 1: a brand new set of humans, completely brand new. Right, So, like,

532
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: think about our country like I mean, unless you are

533
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: some sort of professor that uses their like autism as

534
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: a superpower. I mean that in the most respectful way possible.

535
00:33:56,080 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: Because one of the guys that when I was doing

536
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 1: my my student teaching so I could become a teacher,

537
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 1: he was a math and science teacher for eighth graders,

538
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 1: and he had like some severe like O c D

539
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 1: and a little bit autistic on the spectrum, and he

540
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:17,440
Speaker 1: turned that into a superpower in the sense that demand

541
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 1: was able in a public school to individually track the

542
00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 1: development and the growth of every student. The guy could

543
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: go into his closet in his or his garage and

544
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,799
Speaker 1: there was this perfectly aligned like measured out twelve by

545
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: twelve squares of these file cabinets and folders, and he

546
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: could be like, I could be like Yo, who was

547
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:43,359
Speaker 1: in your class in two thousand and six and sat

548
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 1: on the third chair from the right, and what was

549
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,040
Speaker 1: his or her grades? He could be like like, Yo, Okay,

550
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:55,279
Speaker 1: that was not deep sing he graduated this year. Look,

551
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 1: here's here's all of his work like he was just

552
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: he turned it into a superpower. So all that to say,

553
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: maybe you have that type of superpower, and you could

554
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 1: tell me who was the thirty nine district representative for

555
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: Northwest Arkansas in nWo, Like maybe you know that as

556
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,319
Speaker 1: far as the rest of us is concerned, that person

557
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: might as well be a pterodactyl. They just gone who

558
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,360
Speaker 1: that person is? Everybody we're talking about right now or

559
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 1: whether it's the Trump's closest, what everybody like they're gonna be,

560
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: You have to think like they're gonna be as far

561
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:44,280
Speaker 1: from these new kids as Walter Mondale or Williams Jennings Brier,

562
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 1: like Woodrow Coolidge, you know, obviously Calvin Coolidge, Woodrow Wilson.

563
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,879
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is like these people are their

564
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,439
Speaker 1: cartoons to me? Like they don't. I mean, I'm because

565
00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,440
Speaker 1: I'm into this, like I know, I know, I know

566
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 1: what it is, but like i mean, I'm less. Let

567
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: you watch in the History channel or are you in

568
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: a class? Can't about tell you nothing about a Woodrow Wilson.

569
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: You're saying like we're no twenty four hour news like

570
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 1: anyone win not like he like tear crews, like we

571
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 1: got memes about this. You know, maybe they did, but

572
00:36:12,480 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 1: they did, but we don't. I don't know nothing about

573
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. This is the beginning of

574
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: that transition. So look, we're gonna be all gs, We're

575
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 1: gonna be all heads. We like this young energy. I

576
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: hope you like this young energy. You know what I'm saying,

577
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 1: because like you, we do need them new ideas. We

578
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: do need young bucks. It don't work if you or

579
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: we die all. Like I said, we all gonna be gone.

580
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 1: But they built different. And if they built different because

581
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: of us, they they they are product of the culture

582
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 1: we handed them. If you happen to come to this

583
00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 1: show via cool Zone Media, you know, if you're listening

584
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:05,280
Speaker 1: to it could happen here. Think about Garrison. Garrison built different.

585
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: Garrison is an upgraded version. Like they are new kinds,

586
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:15,600
Speaker 1: you know, the intelligence, the willingness to put themselves in

587
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: harm's way, the topics they choose to like take on. Look,

588
00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:25,399
Speaker 1: Garrison built different, and I'm here for it. If they're

589
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 1: gonna do better, we gotta do better. You're gonna you're

590
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 1: gonna give them game without Jaden him up. You know

591
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,799
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, but you gotta like like think about

592
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: this for a second, y'all. Like yo, next congress person

593
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:45,439
Speaker 1: right now doing TikTok dances. Yo. Next listen, Yo, next

597
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 1: waiting for the bad bunny drop, but I tell you what,

598
00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 1: that kid was on Capitol Hill, you know, lobbying to

599
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 1: end Roe v Wade. That kid is engaged. That same kid,

600
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,399
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, was also at the March

601
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: for Our Lives We're trying to stop these school shootings.
