WEBVTT - Plan B Kill (with Tawny Newsome)

0:00:03.200 --> 0:00:05.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean my dad. He used to play a game

0:00:05.840 --> 0:00:08.440
<v Speaker 1>with me where he would kind of like lie and

0:00:08.480 --> 0:00:11.240
<v Speaker 1>wait like an ambush in the hallways in our house,

0:00:11.640 --> 0:00:14.760
<v Speaker 1>out a corner in our house. This sounds like abuse.

0:00:14.920 --> 0:00:16.919
<v Speaker 1>I gotta say it was not amused. We have a

0:00:16.920 --> 0:00:19.639
<v Speaker 1>good relationship. He's a good man. But he would I

0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:21.919
<v Speaker 1>was a kid, and he would pop out and just

0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:24.360
<v Speaker 1>like incapacitating it some way and be like how do

0:00:24.400 --> 0:00:26.160
<v Speaker 1>you get out of it? And you always got hair,

0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:30.600
<v Speaker 1>so I love that so much, and just popping around

0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:33.520
<v Speaker 1>a corner and be like, have been ready to be ready?

0:00:33.640 --> 0:00:36.879
<v Speaker 1>Now you thought it was always some real like you know,

0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:39.839
<v Speaker 1>behind the Dubno's pizza style like karate moves he was

0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:42.319
<v Speaker 1>teaching me they were not real karate because then when

0:00:42.320 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I did go to a real karate class, tried to

0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 1>show them my quote foot self defense, they were like,

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:49.760
<v Speaker 1>what is this? Gett of ship? It's like, you can't

0:00:49.800 --> 0:00:53.440
<v Speaker 1>just buy the man's inner, die, Tony, that's not karate.

0:00:53.680 --> 0:00:56.120
<v Speaker 1>That's just the thing your daddy said to dude. That's

0:00:56.160 --> 0:01:06.240
<v Speaker 1>just street fighting from the sixth Days, Johnny chips in

0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:25.360
<v Speaker 1>your racist money intern stuff. You can't tell me, Yeah, yeah,

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:28.960
<v Speaker 1>there it is. There it is. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome

0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:33.320
<v Speaker 1>to another phenomenal episode of My Mama Told Me, the

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:37.680
<v Speaker 1>podcast where we've died deep, deep, deep into the pockets

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:41.479
<v Speaker 1>of black conspiracy theories and we work to finally find

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:46.600
<v Speaker 1>out Oprah's favorite flavor of orphan blood. Which orphan does

0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 1>she like to drink the most? Personally, I think she

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:53.120
<v Speaker 1>likes Icelandic orphan blood. That would be my guest. I know,

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:55.840
<v Speaker 1>I know you're gonna say, well, Oprah clearly hates the

0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>black community. She would obviously drink the blood of small

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.480
<v Speaker 1>black children where she does. But the truth is Oprah

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:05.840
<v Speaker 1>wants something excited. She wants to taste that rare blood.

0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:09.200
<v Speaker 1>And there's nothing rarer than a little Icelandic baby without

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 1>a family. That's what Oprah's into. That's the rumor I'm spreading. Hey,

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 1>it's me. It's your host, lenksne Kerry. As always, I

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know why I talked like this. It's a complicated

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:24.400
<v Speaker 1>algorithm that turned me into the person I am today.

0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:27.040
<v Speaker 1>But you know who's not a trash person, You know

0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:30.240
<v Speaker 1>who doesn't talk like an insane person constantly. It's my

0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:34.320
<v Speaker 1>guest today, She's fantastic. You know her from Space Force,

0:02:34.639 --> 0:02:37.080
<v Speaker 1>you know her from Star Trek, Lower Decks, you know

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:40.000
<v Speaker 1>her from She basically has a monopoly on all black

0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:44.320
<v Speaker 1>ladies space stuff. At this point, she's hilarious. You love her,

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:50.640
<v Speaker 1>you know her. Give it up for Tawny Newsom. Everybody. Yes,

0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:54.480
<v Speaker 1>you're they're here. They adore you. How are you showed up?

0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm good, I'm good. That's I mean, that's the opposite

0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 1>of what I told you what I logged into the

0:02:58.800 --> 0:03:03.600
<v Speaker 1>zoom off Mike, I think I said, And then I'm good.

0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:07.680
<v Speaker 1>You turned it up for the audience you are like, yeah,

0:03:08.880 --> 0:03:13.040
<v Speaker 1>you're a completely different person behind the scenes. You got

0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:15.840
<v Speaker 1>a real ellen degenerous vibe about you at this point,

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:18.680
<v Speaker 1>given the shift. If you but I flip it, I'm

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.919
<v Speaker 1>a monster for everything public facing and then in private

0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:28.320
<v Speaker 1>amount kin sure, so shut the funk up, Shut the

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:32.320
<v Speaker 1>funk up, and watch me dance real mad to this music.

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:36.960
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of music, this theme song is perfect, perfect, Oh

0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 1>thank you so much. It was done by a hilarious

0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>comedian and very talented man. I always say he's the

0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:45.840
<v Speaker 1>most talented person I know, this guy, Nick Chambers, who

0:03:45.880 --> 0:03:48.760
<v Speaker 1>was a comedian out in New York Now and I

0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 1>resent him very much for having so many gifts. He

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 1>did the artwork for our show, he did the music

0:03:54.320 --> 0:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>for our show, and he has all the hatred that's

0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:01.640
<v Speaker 1>bubbling in my heart for the skills it I don't have. Sure,

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 1>but it's good to have someone like that in your

0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:09.000
<v Speaker 1>corner rather than against you. Sure, exactly. He is like

0:04:09.040 --> 0:04:11.240
<v Speaker 1>a member of the Expendables for me, you know what

0:04:11.320 --> 0:04:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, He's my Sylvester Stallone if you will, m hm,

0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:21.560
<v Speaker 1>I've heard of that movie. It's a movie, it's it's

0:04:21.680 --> 0:04:25.760
<v Speaker 1>three movies, it's a it's a powerful franchise at this point. Wow,

0:04:25.800 --> 0:04:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I have been asleep on that. I'm sorry. I didn't

0:04:29.080 --> 0:04:31.679
<v Speaker 1>know what that was. And to be honest, you didn't

0:04:31.680 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 1>come here to talk expendables. That's a different podcast. Would

0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:39.800
<v Speaker 1>turn that down. I can't. I'm busy. I can't do it.

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm so sorry, just because I didn't know, not because

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I have anything against it. I don't know it. Sure,

0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.360
<v Speaker 1>good for you for having that level of self control

0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:50.120
<v Speaker 1>where you're like, I'm gonna step out of this one. Guys,

0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:52.520
<v Speaker 1>this isn't for me. I just signed up and been like, yeah,

0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 1>let's talk. I don't know I'll bet Yeah, I'm excited

0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:01.360
<v Speaker 1>to get an excited feels like almost the wrong phrasing here,

0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:05.359
<v Speaker 1>But I am eager to get into the conspiracy theory

0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:08.080
<v Speaker 1>that you sent our way, because it I would say,

0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:11.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a pretty heavy one. It's a sturdy conspiracy theory

0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.279
<v Speaker 1>to be digging into. But you said, my mama told

0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:21.320
<v Speaker 1>me breath control trials in Africa are being used for masterialization.

0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:30.120
<v Speaker 1>It is heavy. Hearing it out loud feels different than

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 1>when you just type some stuff and go, hey, can

0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.240
<v Speaker 1>we talk about this. Hearing it out loud, I'm like,

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 1>birth control, child sterilization, Africa. These are big words, these

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:42.719
<v Speaker 1>are big ideas. This is a deep ship we're talking about. Yeah,

0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:46.120
<v Speaker 1>So this one walks the line of like, I don't

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:49.960
<v Speaker 1>know how much conspiracy theory it really is just or

0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:53.520
<v Speaker 1>is it just like a little bit of extrapolation on facts,

0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:58.200
<v Speaker 1>because the facts are that they did, you know, test

0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:01.279
<v Speaker 1>drugs like depo provera with women my age might know,

0:06:01.360 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 1>as like the birth control shot, which was available I

0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:07.920
<v Speaker 1>think in the nineties. I don't know they tested that

0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:11.160
<v Speaker 1>on women in then called Rhodesia, I guess Zimbabwe in

0:06:11.160 --> 0:06:14.360
<v Speaker 1>the seventies and the women were coerced into taking it,

0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, they were asked to take it in exchange

0:06:17.080 --> 0:06:20.359
<v Speaker 1>for things they needed like food and water, medical supplies

0:06:20.360 --> 0:06:22.679
<v Speaker 1>and stuff. So it wasn't you know, the trials weren't

0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:24.720
<v Speaker 1>on the up and up to say the least. And

0:06:24.760 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>then there was also there was the other one nor plant.

0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:30.719
<v Speaker 1>They used to test that out on women, but you know,

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.159
<v Speaker 1>all these women had these massive side effects and a

0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:36.159
<v Speaker 1>lot of women became sterile. And it's not that far

0:06:36.240 --> 0:06:38.480
<v Speaker 1>of a job to be like hm hmm. So this

0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:42.279
<v Speaker 1>is a whole continent where for centuries missionaries and well

0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.159
<v Speaker 1>meaning whites have been going down there and being like, oh,

0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 1>the African people, such a vibrant people, you know, the

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 1>whole monolith, the whole continent. What a vibrant people. But

0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.640
<v Speaker 1>if they could only control their population. They can't even

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:56.479
<v Speaker 1>feed these children, you know, and so there's we could

0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:59.960
<v Speaker 1>just if we could just get these savages too, maybe

0:07:00.200 --> 0:07:05.760
<v Speaker 1>produce a little less because they make they make such

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 1>beautiful baskets, Just fewer children. Let's sneak some ship into

0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:15.120
<v Speaker 1>their morning breakfast, you know, like it's not that far fetched.

0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:19.040
<v Speaker 1>I have none. So this is a reckless theory. No,

0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:22.440
<v Speaker 1>and and let's let's start right from where you started,

0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>right from the beginning. I think. I think when I

0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 1>originally read your conspiracy theory, I was like, Okay, this

0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:32.960
<v Speaker 1>is just true. This is just like and again my

0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 1>brain is filled with nonsense. So I immediately was like, fact,

0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 1>what are we doing? This is she doesn't know how

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 1>conspiracy theories were, but I do think that to your point,

0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:45.200
<v Speaker 1>it sort of is one of those things that is

0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:49.880
<v Speaker 1>hedging both truth and conspiracy theory that like, the truth

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:53.560
<v Speaker 1>is that these trials are a hundred percent real. The

0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:58.200
<v Speaker 1>question is what was the intention behind these trials? Was it,

0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:01.880
<v Speaker 1>in fact, for popular lation control or was it just like, oh,

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:05.640
<v Speaker 1>y'all were trying some stuff out and it went awry, right,

0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.280
<v Speaker 1>You're just trying some ship out on people. You felt

0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 1>like we're expendable basically, which is sinister in and of itself,

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:14.640
<v Speaker 1>And that is definitely what happened. So even the truth

0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 1>is real, dark and fucked up, You're you're welcome for

0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:21.880
<v Speaker 1>me picking this one. And the consiracy theory is like

0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 1>fucking you know, villainous and sinister. Yeah, I mean, I

0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:29.320
<v Speaker 1>just fully believe it. I feel like I don't even

0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:30.920
<v Speaker 1>need This is one of those dangerous ones where I'm

0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:33.240
<v Speaker 1>just like, I don't even need proof. I hear it.

0:08:33.320 --> 0:08:34.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, yeah, that's what they're doing. They're trying to

0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>kill us all. And that's the hard ones to sort

0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:41.600
<v Speaker 1>of wrestle with, right is Like even if in some

0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:44.840
<v Speaker 1>conversation with the person they were like, well, actually, this

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:47.760
<v Speaker 1>is the true thing behind what you're saying, or here's

0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:50.840
<v Speaker 1>some facts you may not have considered, there's still a

0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:52.920
<v Speaker 1>part of you that's like, no, my fucker, I know

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I You can try to trick me all you want

0:08:57.360 --> 0:09:00.079
<v Speaker 1>into thinking that, Like white people had a more or

0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:04.400
<v Speaker 1>ground in their approach to giving drugs to people who

0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:07.120
<v Speaker 1>didn't realize they were taking these kinds of drugs or

0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 1>this severe of a drug. But now you know what

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:11.960
<v Speaker 1>you were doing. You know what you're doing because this

0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 1>ship was like the seventies, Like, yes, it's been going

0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.440
<v Speaker 1>on long before that, but this specific birth control ship,

0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:18.600
<v Speaker 1>this is the seventies. You know where else you could

0:09:18.640 --> 0:09:22.880
<v Speaker 1>have tested out your brand new fangled birth control drug, Boston, bitch,

0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:27.960
<v Speaker 1>Like try it out in Massachusetts and see how women do?

0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:31.199
<v Speaker 1>You got this white ass state Maine filled with with

0:09:31.400 --> 0:09:40.800
<v Speaker 1>twothless Hillbillies. You can test it on them. Shout out

0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:44.240
<v Speaker 1>to Maine. My bad, I didn't realize that's where your

0:09:44.240 --> 0:09:46.840
<v Speaker 1>fan base was located. Oh yeah, I get a lot

0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:50.000
<v Speaker 1>of a lot of hits and streams from Maine. No,

0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:53.199
<v Speaker 1>but truly, truly, if it's all innocent, there's people everywhere

0:09:53.280 --> 0:09:55.800
<v Speaker 1>you could get white women from. You know, all kinds

0:09:55.800 --> 0:09:57.800
<v Speaker 1>of places, you get all kinds of colors of women.

0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:00.000
<v Speaker 1>You don't have to go to a whole last continent

0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 1>that that has been tested on for centuries. I don't know,

0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:06.120
<v Speaker 1>but this is the sort of thing that like makes

0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:11.840
<v Speaker 1>me wary of trying out anything, Like, yeah, the COVID

0:10:12.160 --> 0:10:16.560
<v Speaker 1>vaccine trot. No, no, I'm waiting like that. I'm gonna

0:10:16.559 --> 0:10:20.840
<v Speaker 1>stop you right there. That's how they get you. I'm terrified.

0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:24.400
<v Speaker 1>I'll be honest, I'm terrified of that vaccine. And not

0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:27.480
<v Speaker 1>because I think to your point. I think I want

0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:30.440
<v Speaker 1>to take it right, like I want to be free

0:10:30.480 --> 0:10:33.200
<v Speaker 1>of whatever this is. Boy, would I love to get

0:10:33.240 --> 0:10:35.320
<v Speaker 1>back to doing stand up and being out in the

0:10:35.360 --> 0:10:38.640
<v Speaker 1>world and like going to clubs and parties with my

0:10:38.720 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 1>friends and ship. But at the same time, there is

0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 1>just too much history of manipulation with falsey drugs for

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:49.840
<v Speaker 1>me to feel confident that putting this needle in my

0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:54.040
<v Speaker 1>body is just gonna be an a okay decision. Yea yeah.

0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:56.679
<v Speaker 1>I mean, especially with those reports of them giving ship

0:10:56.720 --> 0:10:59.160
<v Speaker 1>for free to all the hbc U s, It's like,

0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:01.920
<v Speaker 1>this is not for this is not free. Everyone be suspicious,

0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>be suspicious. Why are you get all these black college

0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:09.959
<v Speaker 1>students again, Boston. There's a lot of calls Boston, right,

0:11:10.040 --> 0:11:11.920
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to give it to the Harvard kids,

0:11:12.320 --> 0:11:15.959
<v Speaker 1>get to the lesser colleges that you've got all these

0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:18.760
<v Speaker 1>new masses around there that you could clearly give this

0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 1>drug to. Now, Leason, you keep taking what I'm saying,

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:26.800
<v Speaker 1>and you kissed that I'm gonna get in true. Listen,

0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I think what Dawny is trying to say is give

0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 1>it to the white pores. Wait wait, wait, wait wait

0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:37.880
<v Speaker 1>now wait. She's being very clear and I'm not manipulating

0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 1>this at all. She is articulating herself perfectly. I am

0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:43.760
<v Speaker 1>merely backing her up. I'm a pip, She's glad it's night.

0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:47.440
<v Speaker 1>This is this is a clear conversation. Wait, were you

0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:52.160
<v Speaker 1>really a pip? Oh? In the no I was for

0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:55.640
<v Speaker 1>our listeners. We were in Sherman Showcase, a wonderful show

0:11:55.760 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 1>on Hulu. Now I have seen Hulu and you play

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:03.240
<v Speaker 1>Diana Raw Yes, you were smoking right. I was Smokey Robinson,

0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:08.120
<v Speaker 1>that's right, perfect. And I was constantly wavering between making

0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:12.000
<v Speaker 1>a full commitment to a smokey Robinson voice or just

0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:16.000
<v Speaker 1>letting my regular voice be because you know, when you're

0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:18.199
<v Speaker 1>doing a character, it's like, Okay, am I gonna be

0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:21.679
<v Speaker 1>fully in the character and do like a Jay Pharaoh impression?

0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:24.800
<v Speaker 1>Or am I just gonna like be funny by my

0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:27.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, in my own voice as is. I think

0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:30.480
<v Speaker 1>we were all like one foot in and out of

0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.840
<v Speaker 1>the full commitment on that. I will say I was

0:12:34.000 --> 0:12:38.240
<v Speaker 1>truly stunned in the most impressed possible way with your

0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Diana Ross impression. It felt, oh, thank you, I feel

0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:43.440
<v Speaker 1>like the same thing as you. I was like doing

0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:45.840
<v Speaker 1>the breathy voice and the whispy walk, and then every

0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:47.520
<v Speaker 1>now and then I'd just be like, man, this, I

0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:53.120
<v Speaker 1>was like, Oh, that's that's just me a little boy. Okay.

0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:57.199
<v Speaker 1>Talk to me about where you first became aware of

0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:01.680
<v Speaker 1>this conspiracy theory. When did this first come to your world?

0:13:01.760 --> 0:13:06.119
<v Speaker 1>If you will. So I was in college in Chicago

0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:08.559
<v Speaker 1>and I didn't have any money and I didn't have

0:13:08.600 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>any health insurance, and I needed to go for my

0:13:12.800 --> 0:13:15.320
<v Speaker 1>yearly like pops mirror, and so I went to this

0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:17.959
<v Speaker 1>really cool clinic. I don't know if they're still in business,

0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:20.400
<v Speaker 1>but they were called the Chicago Women's Health Center, and

0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 1>everybody on campus knew about them because you could go

0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:24.680
<v Speaker 1>and they had like a sliding scale office visit, so

0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:26.400
<v Speaker 1>you could show up and pay zero dollars, you could

0:13:26.400 --> 0:13:30.000
<v Speaker 1>pay forty dollars whatever, and everyone, Yeah, it was a

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.120
<v Speaker 1>really cool resource. I used them a lot when I

0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:34.560
<v Speaker 1>didn't have insurance. They would sit there with you for

0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:37.439
<v Speaker 1>an hour and talk to Every appointment was like an hour,

0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 1>I feel like, and they would talk to you about

0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:41.079
<v Speaker 1>all your birth control options. They would talk to you

0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:44.320
<v Speaker 1>about health stuff. They just like took away the stigma

0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:48.000
<v Speaker 1>about talking about those things. So I went to them

0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:49.760
<v Speaker 1>and I was looking for I wasn't even looking for

0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.240
<v Speaker 1>birth control, but they were like, oh, well, if you're active,

0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:53.640
<v Speaker 1>do you want to get on some? And I was

0:13:53.679 --> 0:13:56.280
<v Speaker 1>like sure, I've never really taken it before. And they

0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:58.080
<v Speaker 1>were like, well, why don't you research some? And come back.

0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:01.080
<v Speaker 1>So I did like super cursory search and came back,

0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>and I think I maybe I pitched you're doing one

0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:08.160
<v Speaker 1>of the shots, like the Depa Privera or whatever it's

0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:11.760
<v Speaker 1>later incarnations. You went in and you're like, give me

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:16.400
<v Speaker 1>the most dangerous one, please. Yeah, truly, because I think

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and I might be mixing them up. It's been a

0:14:17.920 --> 0:14:19.880
<v Speaker 1>long time since I've thought about these old school like

0:14:20.080 --> 0:14:22.080
<v Speaker 1>birth control methods, but I think that was the one

0:14:22.400 --> 0:14:24.080
<v Speaker 1>that you just took the shot like three or four

0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:27.320
<v Speaker 1>times a year, and you didn't get a cycle, you

0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:29.080
<v Speaker 1>didn't have a period. And so I was like, oh,

0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:31.480
<v Speaker 1>I want that. I want my life to stop being

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:34.200
<v Speaker 1>sucked up once a month. And I'm trying to be

0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:37.640
<v Speaker 1>a gymnast from now long. Let's do let's do that

0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:43.600
<v Speaker 1>one exactly, just like get me on the high beam. Yeah.

0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:45.360
<v Speaker 1>But so this woman like straight up sat me down

0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:47.880
<v Speaker 1>and was like, let me tell you the shady pass

0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:51.000
<v Speaker 1>with this stuff, and like walked me through everything. And

0:14:51.000 --> 0:14:53.440
<v Speaker 1>I thought, I have never heard a healthcare provider. I'm

0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:55.440
<v Speaker 1>sure they're great doctors who do that now, but I've

0:14:55.440 --> 0:14:58.040
<v Speaker 1>never heard a healthcare provider straight up be like, okay,

0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:01.160
<v Speaker 1>you don't want this drug, and it's for like social political,

0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:04.520
<v Speaker 1>fucked up reasons as opposed to just like maybe try

0:15:04.880 --> 0:15:08.480
<v Speaker 1>tricycle instead, it's better for your height and weight or whatever.

0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Then I was like, oh, ship this and they're doing

0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:14.320
<v Speaker 1>it to black people. And then I think I just

0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:18.040
<v Speaker 1>extrapolated from there or like went down a YouTube rabbit

0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 1>hole or something. I'm sure, right, I don't think I've

0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:24.240
<v Speaker 1>ever had a medical professional do that either, Like, that's

0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:28.440
<v Speaker 1>a pretty bold choice on their end to be like, yo,

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 1>not only is this potentially dangerous to your body, but

0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 1>also think about all these people that they tested it

0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:38.200
<v Speaker 1>on or the ways that this drug came to be.

0:15:38.440 --> 0:15:42.000
<v Speaker 1>That's not a conversation that I think medical professionals are

0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:45.840
<v Speaker 1>are wanting to have. Certainly, even having, they're probably not

0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:49.000
<v Speaker 1>supposed to do that. I mean, like I don't know

0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:52.320
<v Speaker 1>how like pharma sales works and ship, but like I

0:15:52.320 --> 0:15:55.040
<v Speaker 1>guess because they were like a hippie free clinic, they

0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:57.440
<v Speaker 1>could do whatever they wanted. But I do love the

0:15:57.480 --> 0:16:00.520
<v Speaker 1>idea that there's some dude from Big Farmer Lie waiting

0:16:00.560 --> 0:16:04.840
<v Speaker 1>in her office after she talks to you, just like Diane,

0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:07.240
<v Speaker 1>I heard what you said in there she's like, I

0:16:07.280 --> 0:16:10.840
<v Speaker 1>can't help myself. I gotta tell them about it. What

0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:16.080
<v Speaker 1>did we talk about, Diane? Oh? Sorry, like that that

0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:18.880
<v Speaker 1>guy hangs out in her office just waiting to scolder.

0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:22.880
<v Speaker 1>He's like, you told him our big secret again, Diane. Yeah,

0:16:22.880 --> 0:16:26.240
<v Speaker 1>he's not like a good sinister dude. He's just like

0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:30.120
<v Speaker 1>a clumsy boss who's like, come on, you said you

0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:35.640
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't tell. Now he's sweet. I think, yeah, he's a

0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:38.320
<v Speaker 1>good Honestly, he's a good guy except for the fact

0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:42.160
<v Speaker 1>that he works for a billion dollar murder corporation. Everything

0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:46.360
<v Speaker 1>else about him is he's solid. Dude. Okay, so you

0:16:46.520 --> 0:16:49.920
<v Speaker 1>hear this, You go to this office, she breaks it

0:16:49.960 --> 0:16:53.480
<v Speaker 1>all down for you, and obviously you say, okay, cool,

0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:56.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna take that one. Do you then go

0:16:57.000 --> 0:17:00.440
<v Speaker 1>back and like find yourself in like a YouTube uh

0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.680
<v Speaker 1>rabbit hole where you're like discovering all this truth? Are

0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:06.800
<v Speaker 1>you just like, Okay, that's information, and now I'm going

0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 1>to go about my day. I'm struggling to remember because

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:12.440
<v Speaker 1>this was probably like two thousand four is a long

0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:16.280
<v Speaker 1>time ago, but I think I probably heard enough to

0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:18.680
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, they tested on people and that's fucked up.

0:17:19.240 --> 0:17:22.560
<v Speaker 1>I probably went one step further with the Google into

0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:27.399
<v Speaker 1>like you know, hotel tree, the vent diagram of like

0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:32.240
<v Speaker 1>conspiracy theories that also aligns with like white women kind

0:17:32.280 --> 0:17:35.560
<v Speaker 1>of u c l A reproductive health hippie ladies can

0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:40.360
<v Speaker 1>sometimes get very very like a one circle. And yeah,

0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:44.399
<v Speaker 1>there's there's probably a crossover between Dr Umar Johnson and

0:17:44.480 --> 0:17:48.320
<v Speaker 1>goog somewhere there's like a vent diagram where they meet.

0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:51.320
<v Speaker 1>You know, for sure there's all a little bit of

0:17:51.320 --> 0:17:55.480
<v Speaker 1>like pseudo science, but it's because someone there's an oppressor,

0:17:55.640 --> 0:18:00.240
<v Speaker 1>you know. So yeah, I think I went one are

0:18:00.320 --> 0:18:03.080
<v Speaker 1>deep and saw you know, got to the point of

0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:06.640
<v Speaker 1>like and they're doing this intentionally in order to sterilize

0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:09.280
<v Speaker 1>and control the population. And I just went, yeah, that's truth,

0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:12.439
<v Speaker 1>and I just accepted it as truth as though that

0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.200
<v Speaker 1>medical professional had told me that part when she definitely

0:18:15.240 --> 0:18:18.959
<v Speaker 1>did not. I got you. That's where you were like,

0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:22.440
<v Speaker 1>I got this doctor. Yeah, I'll take it from here.

0:18:22.840 --> 0:18:26.199
<v Speaker 1>I got enough information to now make some much bigger

0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:29.800
<v Speaker 1>conclusions from everything that you've said. Absolutely, and I'm sure

0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.840
<v Speaker 1>I've passed it off on on a podcast or something,

0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:35.560
<v Speaker 1>just like it's accepted fact. Like I think the line

0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:37.800
<v Speaker 1>for me got blurred long ago, and it's probably not

0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:40.640
<v Speaker 1>until we decided to talk about this that I really

0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:42.919
<v Speaker 1>thought about, like, wait, what's the part that I actually heard,

0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:47.120
<v Speaker 1>And what's the part that I like read in comments

0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:53.120
<v Speaker 1>on like a doctor. That doctor wasn't irresponsible at all.

0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:57.359
<v Speaker 1>It was me. I was the monster in this whole story. Yeah, yes,

0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:00.879
<v Speaker 1>I guess I did hand out flyers saying in fact,

0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:07.640
<v Speaker 1>I did start my campus this anti birth control organization,

0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:10.879
<v Speaker 1>But otherwise I think I handled it pretty well. And

0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.200
<v Speaker 1>see that is where it goes full hotep right is

0:19:13.200 --> 0:19:16.120
<v Speaker 1>where it's like, then it becomes don't take any birth

0:19:16.119 --> 0:19:18.199
<v Speaker 1>control because it's all here to sterilize you with all

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the white man trying to sterilize Black women just fully.

0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Then goes away from like feminism and like body autonomy

0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:27.920
<v Speaker 1>to have like men telling us not to take birth

0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:31.200
<v Speaker 1>control because of like made up race ship. Yeah. I

0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:33.880
<v Speaker 1>don't know if you've ever heard this, but I certainly

0:19:33.880 --> 0:19:36.720
<v Speaker 1>heard it for years, was that one of the counter

0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:40.639
<v Speaker 1>arguments for Planned Parenthood that I always heard that was

0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:45.040
<v Speaker 1>specifically from black people, was that Planned Parenthood was an

0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:50.120
<v Speaker 1>organization spawned from eugenics, that this was like an organization

0:19:50.240 --> 0:19:55.399
<v Speaker 1>built by a person who intentionally wanted to like sterilize

0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:59.120
<v Speaker 1>the black and brown communities. Yeah, have you gone into

0:19:59.119 --> 0:20:01.000
<v Speaker 1>that whenever on the show or have you looked into

0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:04.520
<v Speaker 1>that one? We have not, no, but I I I'm

0:20:04.560 --> 0:20:06.760
<v Speaker 1>excited to dig into it if you got some thoughts

0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:09.679
<v Speaker 1>on it. I don't have any real vetted thoughts. But

0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.520
<v Speaker 1>what's interesting, I always heard that too, and now, as

0:20:12.560 --> 0:20:15.760
<v Speaker 1>like a grown thinking person, my brain goes two ways,

0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:18.200
<v Speaker 1>and I could have learned this with a simple Google.

0:20:18.240 --> 0:20:20.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure I I did not do that, dear listener,

0:20:20.600 --> 0:20:26.200
<v Speaker 1>so sorry. It could be that someone who was a

0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:29.960
<v Speaker 1>believer in eugenics, even a proponent of it, was there

0:20:30.000 --> 0:20:33.400
<v Speaker 1>at the start of Planned Parenthood, and then the organization

0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:35.040
<v Speaker 1>turned into what we know it as now, which is

0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:38.479
<v Speaker 1>just healthcare for women and people who can't get pregnant.

0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:42.640
<v Speaker 1>But the other part of my brain goes, so, if

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:44.960
<v Speaker 1>this isn't true at all, if there was no one

0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:47.960
<v Speaker 1>involved in eugenics, the point of this conspiracy theory, like

0:20:47.960 --> 0:20:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the reason things like this gets seated now on Reddit

0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:52.439
<v Speaker 1>in places like that, But back in the day, the

0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:54.240
<v Speaker 1>reason why these things get floated around to the black

0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:57.240
<v Speaker 1>community is to push the anti choice agenda. Is to

0:20:57.280 --> 0:21:01.199
<v Speaker 1>push the idea that abortion is bad. You know, choice

0:21:01.240 --> 0:21:04.800
<v Speaker 1>is bad because it's you know, spawned from planned parenthood,

0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:06.520
<v Speaker 1>which is trying to sterilize us. And we know that

0:21:06.560 --> 0:21:09.680
<v Speaker 1>black people are a faith filled group of people in general.

0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:13.199
<v Speaker 1>So the idea of pushing the anti choice agenda and

0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:16.440
<v Speaker 1>that all ties back to I will never not say this.

0:21:16.720 --> 0:21:20.040
<v Speaker 1>It all ties back to the fact that when people

0:21:20.080 --> 0:21:22.919
<v Speaker 1>who can get pregnant have children that are unplanned at

0:21:23.000 --> 0:21:25.359
<v Speaker 1>an early age or at an unplanned time in their life,

0:21:25.640 --> 0:21:30.480
<v Speaker 1>they are significantly less likely to pursue higher education, pursue

0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:34.560
<v Speaker 1>advanced careers, and they are way more likely to vote GOP.

0:21:35.119 --> 0:21:38.320
<v Speaker 1>So there's nothing about it that is, oh, we have

0:21:38.359 --> 0:21:40.160
<v Speaker 1>to save a life to feed us. It's a life.

0:21:40.280 --> 0:21:44.000
<v Speaker 1>It is strictly a way to funnel people out of education,

0:21:44.080 --> 0:21:47.080
<v Speaker 1>out of the workforce, and into the cold, dead, stupid

0:21:47.200 --> 0:21:50.600
<v Speaker 1>arms of the GOP. Yeah, I think to your point,

0:21:50.960 --> 0:21:53.960
<v Speaker 1>there is so much of it that is just rooted

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:58.520
<v Speaker 1>and intentional manipulation. And so even if there was some

0:21:58.640 --> 0:22:01.879
<v Speaker 1>person that was a part of the inception of planned

0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:07.720
<v Speaker 1>parenthood that did have eugenics ideals, right, they're not involved anymore.

0:22:08.160 --> 0:22:12.360
<v Speaker 1>They're not like leading the charge for what Planned Parenthood represents,

0:22:12.680 --> 0:22:14.840
<v Speaker 1>and so it's the it's no different than when the

0:22:14.880 --> 0:22:18.720
<v Speaker 1>fucking like Republicans go. You know, a Lincoln was a Republican.

0:22:19.160 --> 0:22:21.639
<v Speaker 1>It's like, yeah, my fucker, but y'all wouldn't rocking with

0:22:21.760 --> 0:22:24.720
<v Speaker 1>the same politics. You just had the same title and

0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:27.400
<v Speaker 1>that title change. You know. The Democrats were the ones

0:22:27.520 --> 0:22:30.000
<v Speaker 1>that were in charge of slavery, and it's like, yeah,

0:22:30.080 --> 0:22:32.720
<v Speaker 1>but they like a different kind of slavery now, lette

0:22:34.000 --> 0:22:38.440
<v Speaker 1>it's flavored different. Yeah, I totally agree. It's like even

0:22:38.480 --> 0:22:40.560
<v Speaker 1>if that person was involved, and again I could have

0:22:40.600 --> 0:22:43.760
<v Speaker 1>googled this, I didn't if it wasn't involved early on

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the net. Good that an organization like Planned Parenthood has

0:22:47.040 --> 0:22:52.200
<v Speaker 1>done now far outweighs whoever fucking started it. And like, yeah,

0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:56.680
<v Speaker 1>population control in that way has not been proven. I'm

0:22:56.760 --> 0:22:59.600
<v Speaker 1>far more likely to believe this type of ship is

0:22:59.640 --> 0:23:02.400
<v Speaker 1>more it's proven because it's not happening on our soil

0:23:03.440 --> 0:23:09.440
<v Speaker 1>right right that maybe they're testing. Oh we'll get into that,

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:14.040
<v Speaker 1>but I will say that to your point, it is

0:23:14.280 --> 0:23:17.640
<v Speaker 1>a lot easier for them to get away with these

0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:21.480
<v Speaker 1>things in spaces where we're less willing to check or

0:23:21.520 --> 0:23:25.040
<v Speaker 1>even less willing to care then, like right in front

0:23:25.040 --> 0:23:27.120
<v Speaker 1>of us. And you could argue that right in front

0:23:27.119 --> 0:23:30.239
<v Speaker 1>of us, uh is super subjective because they don't give

0:23:30.280 --> 0:23:33.640
<v Speaker 1>a funk about the neighborhoods that are like legit adjacent

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:35.720
<v Speaker 1>to the ones that they live in. But that's a

0:23:35.800 --> 0:23:39.159
<v Speaker 1>different layer of the conversation. I think to your ultimate point,

0:23:39.680 --> 0:23:44.080
<v Speaker 1>the want is manipulation. It is completely to control and

0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:47.280
<v Speaker 1>trick and take advantage of the groups of people that

0:23:47.320 --> 0:23:51.960
<v Speaker 1>they're telling this somewhat false information too. Yeah, so I

0:23:52.040 --> 0:23:55.280
<v Speaker 1>have you on my side, then you believe my conspiracy. Oh.

0:23:55.560 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 1>First of all, let me be clear, I believe almost

0:23:58.119 --> 0:24:02.600
<v Speaker 1>every conspiracy theory, and you are not special. I was

0:24:02.720 --> 0:24:06.159
<v Speaker 1>bought in before you even got into it. But but

0:24:06.440 --> 0:24:08.879
<v Speaker 1>I will say you have done a phenomenal job of

0:24:08.920 --> 0:24:11.679
<v Speaker 1>selling me in a reasonable way that makes me believe

0:24:11.720 --> 0:24:14.479
<v Speaker 1>it for good reason and not just because I'm a

0:24:14.480 --> 0:24:17.800
<v Speaker 1>defiant human being. Oh yes, I love that. I love

0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:20.240
<v Speaker 1>when Yeah, I love when I can win over someone

0:24:20.480 --> 0:24:24.719
<v Speaker 1>rooted in ridiculousness. Sure, I love it. I love when

0:24:24.760 --> 0:24:27.679
<v Speaker 1>I get a cartoon character to agree with me. What

0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:31.080
<v Speaker 1>a dream. Let me ask you that this last question

0:24:31.119 --> 0:24:33.760
<v Speaker 1>before we go to break when you've talked about the

0:24:33.800 --> 0:24:38.080
<v Speaker 1>injection and specifically like getting this information from this medical professional,

0:24:38.400 --> 0:24:41.679
<v Speaker 1>going back and saying I no longer plan to you know,

0:24:41.880 --> 0:24:45.000
<v Speaker 1>get at least this version of birth control. Did that

0:24:45.200 --> 0:24:49.560
<v Speaker 1>taint your relationship with birth control from that point forward

0:24:49.600 --> 0:24:52.400
<v Speaker 1>where you then like weary of all birth control, where

0:24:52.400 --> 0:24:55.320
<v Speaker 1>you like, no, just that one, I'm good, I'm on chill.

0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, you're right. It totally made my brain spiral

0:24:58.280 --> 0:25:00.679
<v Speaker 1>and go, this is just the ship we noble about.

0:25:00.920 --> 0:25:02.960
<v Speaker 1>This is just the ship they're telling us. And it

0:25:03.000 --> 0:25:05.320
<v Speaker 1>made me go, all this ship is fucked up. They're

0:25:05.359 --> 0:25:08.040
<v Speaker 1>trying to sterilize all of it. Like. It definitely made

0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:11.000
<v Speaker 1>me paranoid, And I did end up using a couple

0:25:11.000 --> 0:25:13.520
<v Speaker 1>of different types throughout my life, but like I would

0:25:13.560 --> 0:25:15.680
<v Speaker 1>be lying if I said I didn't. Still, every time

0:25:15.680 --> 0:25:18.840
<v Speaker 1>there's a new ad for some new birth control, I'm like,

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:21.520
<v Speaker 1>where'd that come from? Where they test that? What's the

0:25:21.560 --> 0:25:27.320
<v Speaker 1>secret behind that one? So I love that. I love

0:25:27.400 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 1>the idea of you watching those commercials where it's some

0:25:29.840 --> 0:25:33.280
<v Speaker 1>lady playing in the park because she ain't got a baby,

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:36.200
<v Speaker 1>she gets to be as she wants to be, and

0:25:36.240 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 1>you're just like na there's some sinister ship going on here.

0:25:39.680 --> 0:25:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Know what happened in Swazzi Land though, what they do

0:25:42.440 --> 0:25:47.240
<v Speaker 1>in Land, I don't trust it. I guess we should

0:25:47.240 --> 0:25:49.399
<v Speaker 1>be doing that for all drugs though, like fun drugs.

0:25:49.400 --> 0:25:52.840
<v Speaker 1>You know. Yeah, I think that's true. That should be

0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:57.119
<v Speaker 1>the instinct in watching every single drug commercial. Too. Many

0:25:57.160 --> 0:26:01.520
<v Speaker 1>of these commercials are literally just a list of horrifying

0:26:01.600 --> 0:26:05.159
<v Speaker 1>things that will happen to your body. And we're just like, well,

0:26:05.400 --> 0:26:07.199
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I guess if it's gonna make me

0:26:07.280 --> 0:26:11.639
<v Speaker 1>smile a little more than I smiled yesterday, take some

0:26:11.760 --> 0:26:16.560
<v Speaker 1>diarrhe you know, I'll take a little diarrhea if it

0:26:16.640 --> 0:26:20.560
<v Speaker 1>means I'm gonna smile while materios instead of be all

0:26:20.640 --> 0:26:25.359
<v Speaker 1>frowny and stuff. Oh god, just yeah, torso numbness. That

0:26:25.400 --> 0:26:32.080
<v Speaker 1>doesn't seem so bad for me. I can't feel my

0:26:32.080 --> 0:26:37.960
<v Speaker 1>my middle section, But god damn do I smile. You

0:26:38.040 --> 0:26:40.159
<v Speaker 1>can wipe the feeling out of my body, but you

0:26:40.200 --> 0:26:42.920
<v Speaker 1>can't wipe this smile off of my face. Thank you,

0:26:43.840 --> 0:26:49.439
<v Speaker 1>drug Vera. All right, we're gonna take a break and

0:26:49.440 --> 0:26:51.520
<v Speaker 1>we'll be back with more Tony news and more my

0:26:51.600 --> 0:27:07.720
<v Speaker 1>mama told me, and we are that's supposed to meet

0:27:07.800 --> 0:27:11.280
<v Speaker 1>his meat with this ship. Bro, What the fuck? Hell yeah,

0:27:11.320 --> 0:27:13.879
<v Speaker 1>we're back here with more tawny news to more my

0:27:14.000 --> 0:27:17.360
<v Speaker 1>mama told me, we're still talking about the risk, the danger,

0:27:17.440 --> 0:27:21.600
<v Speaker 1>the sinister work that birth control and the operators of

0:27:21.640 --> 0:27:25.800
<v Speaker 1>birth control are doing in the background, potentially sterilizing entire

0:27:25.960 --> 0:27:30.960
<v Speaker 1>nations of people, entire continents of people. So besides Zim,

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:34.440
<v Speaker 1>was it Zimbabwe that you said was where they initially

0:27:34.960 --> 0:27:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember if that was nor Plant or depor provera,

0:27:37.400 --> 0:27:39.199
<v Speaker 1>but it was in the seventies and it was when

0:27:39.200 --> 0:27:41.480
<v Speaker 1>it was called Rhodesia, and that's where they were like

0:27:41.600 --> 0:27:44.560
<v Speaker 1>really coercing women to like, hey, try this new thing.

0:27:45.280 --> 0:27:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Were there other nations where you were hearing that a

0:27:48.680 --> 0:27:52.040
<v Speaker 1>similar thing was happening or was it just there? No?

0:27:52.320 --> 0:27:54.840
<v Speaker 1>But I do feel like any time I have a

0:27:54.840 --> 0:27:57.760
<v Speaker 1>really close friend who works in reproductive health, and I

0:27:57.800 --> 0:27:59.800
<v Speaker 1>feel like she's been in this field for a long

0:27:59.840 --> 0:28:02.439
<v Speaker 1>time time, and so if I mentioned these things like

0:28:02.480 --> 0:28:05.520
<v Speaker 1>in a stupid flippant way, she speaks about them in

0:28:05.560 --> 0:28:08.800
<v Speaker 1>a casual, very knowledge filled way where she's just like, oh, yeah,

0:28:08.880 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean, well, of course, the thing that happened in Kenya,

0:28:11.000 --> 0:28:12.720
<v Speaker 1>and I'm always kind of like, yeah, yeah, yeah, So

0:28:12.800 --> 0:28:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I pretend to know, but I don't actually know. But

0:28:15.600 --> 0:28:19.040
<v Speaker 1>I do get a sense that there are multiple accounts

0:28:19.080 --> 0:28:21.640
<v Speaker 1>of drug trials like this from a lot of different countries.

0:28:22.160 --> 0:28:24.639
<v Speaker 1>There are. And this brings us, I think, in a

0:28:24.760 --> 0:28:27.560
<v Speaker 1>in a very smooth, not at all set up way

0:28:27.600 --> 0:28:31.399
<v Speaker 1>to the research that I did. And I'm so glad

0:28:31.440 --> 0:28:34.080
<v Speaker 1>that you mentioned Kenya, because Kenya is in fact one

0:28:34.119 --> 0:28:36.879
<v Speaker 1>of the places where, at least in the research that

0:28:37.040 --> 0:28:41.760
<v Speaker 1>I did, it seems that a very sinister effort was

0:28:41.880 --> 0:28:45.160
<v Speaker 1>made on the part of not only like the government

0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:48.719
<v Speaker 1>as it were, but like the World Health Organization and

0:28:48.760 --> 0:28:52.040
<v Speaker 1>the United Nations seemed to like team up on some

0:28:52.200 --> 0:28:56.440
<v Speaker 1>like super friendship to try to just basically test and

0:28:56.520 --> 0:28:59.640
<v Speaker 1>ruin the lives of these Kenyan women. Oh ship. See

0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:01.240
<v Speaker 1>I define we did not know this. And I said,

0:29:01.360 --> 0:29:04.200
<v Speaker 1>ken you like just taking a shot in the at

0:29:04.200 --> 0:29:07.320
<v Speaker 1>the dart board of Africa, and little sister, you nailed it.

0:29:07.440 --> 0:29:11.720
<v Speaker 1>You guys, you did it. It was the correct answer

0:29:11.800 --> 0:29:17.719
<v Speaker 1>for either giraffes or birth control trials on women that

0:29:17.800 --> 0:29:22.160
<v Speaker 1>lead to sterilization. Those were your two options. So I'll

0:29:22.240 --> 0:29:24.720
<v Speaker 1>run you through what I found in the early nineties,

0:29:25.520 --> 0:29:30.040
<v Speaker 1>researchers figured out that basically, by mixing these two drugs,

0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:35.000
<v Speaker 1>this human chronic gondo trope in I don't know words,

0:29:35.120 --> 0:29:39.440
<v Speaker 1>with the tetanus shot, they created a permanent sterilization for

0:29:39.520 --> 0:29:43.640
<v Speaker 1>women under the guise of like an effective tetanus vaccine.

0:29:43.960 --> 0:29:46.920
<v Speaker 1>That like, they could fake a tetanus vaccine and then

0:29:46.960 --> 0:29:51.160
<v Speaker 1>simultaneously sterilize a lady at the exact same time. And

0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:54.400
<v Speaker 1>so they took this vaccine. The United Nations and the

0:29:54.400 --> 0:29:57.800
<v Speaker 1>World Health Organization teamed up and they took this vaccine

0:29:58.120 --> 0:30:02.560
<v Speaker 1>to basically be carried out in Mexico, in the Philippines

0:30:02.640 --> 0:30:07.600
<v Speaker 1>and Nicaraguan and then Peru. And so one of the

0:30:07.640 --> 0:30:10.920
<v Speaker 1>things that was sort of an issue with this vaccine,

0:30:11.280 --> 0:30:14.560
<v Speaker 1>even though it worked effectively to sterilize these women, it

0:30:14.600 --> 0:30:17.240
<v Speaker 1>took five shots to do it, which is a big

0:30:17.280 --> 0:30:20.720
<v Speaker 1>ask in a developing country to ask women to come

0:30:20.720 --> 0:30:23.760
<v Speaker 1>back for five separate shots over the course of six months.

0:30:24.120 --> 0:30:28.600
<v Speaker 1>But they figured out a way to promote tetanus vaccines

0:30:28.680 --> 0:30:30.480
<v Speaker 1>in the country to be like, you gotta get a

0:30:30.520 --> 0:30:33.479
<v Speaker 1>tetanus vaccine. This is a big deal. Tetanus is everywhere,

0:30:33.480 --> 0:30:37.480
<v Speaker 1>blah blah, blah everywhere. Yeah, look at on the metal,

0:30:37.640 --> 0:30:40.320
<v Speaker 1>you can get cut. You got to come get this vaccine.

0:30:41.800 --> 0:30:44.240
<v Speaker 1>And so they're promoting this and women are going to

0:30:44.320 --> 0:30:47.280
<v Speaker 1>get it. And the only reason they got caught is

0:30:47.360 --> 0:30:50.680
<v Speaker 1>because doctors, like local doctors much like the one that

0:30:50.800 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 1>stepped in in your life, were like, Yo, the normal

0:30:55.040 --> 0:30:58.640
<v Speaker 1>tetanus vaccine only takes two to three shots. Why are

0:30:58.800 --> 0:31:03.840
<v Speaker 1>y'all asking them to five shots for an otherwise similar vaccine?

0:31:04.320 --> 0:31:07.240
<v Speaker 1>And so then the World Health Organization and United Nations

0:31:07.280 --> 0:31:09.760
<v Speaker 1>like packed up their ship and we're like, uh, I

0:31:09.760 --> 0:31:14.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know what happened by and just oh my god.

0:31:15.760 --> 0:31:17.680
<v Speaker 1>So this is real. This is not even a conspiracy.

0:31:17.760 --> 0:31:20.440
<v Speaker 1>This is a real These are facts. These are a

0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:24.520
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent facts. And so here's where it gets even crazier,

0:31:24.560 --> 0:31:27.280
<v Speaker 1>because that's happening in the early to mid nineties, right,

0:31:27.320 --> 0:31:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Peru is the last one that's now in the World

0:31:33.520 --> 0:31:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Health Organization and United Nations team up again to do

0:31:37.240 --> 0:31:41.280
<v Speaker 1>the exact same thing in Kenya. They go to Kenya

0:31:41.880 --> 0:31:45.000
<v Speaker 1>to to basically replicate to bring it back like they

0:31:45.240 --> 0:31:47.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, they're bringing back the fresh Prince. They're bringing

0:31:47.520 --> 0:31:51.120
<v Speaker 1>back this tetanus trial and and they go to Kenya

0:31:51.240 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 1>to try it out again, and the only reason again

0:31:53.800 --> 0:31:57.440
<v Speaker 1>they get caught is because a bunch of Kenyan officials

0:31:57.760 --> 0:32:02.520
<v Speaker 1>are like, no, there's history, which' all you look, we're

0:32:02.560 --> 0:32:06.120
<v Speaker 1>all for like helping our people and getting the vaccinated

0:32:06.120 --> 0:32:08.920
<v Speaker 1>and healthy and blah blah blah. But whatever you're doing,

0:32:09.080 --> 0:32:12.360
<v Speaker 1>it ain't sitting right with us. And they they get exposed.

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:15.160
<v Speaker 1>This is why, this is why it's a slippery slope

0:32:15.200 --> 0:32:18.200
<v Speaker 1>to becoming an anti vaxer, because it's just one more

0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:21.040
<v Speaker 1>click over to wild thought land to be like, well

0:32:21.080 --> 0:32:23.040
<v Speaker 1>you can't trust any vaccine. Then they're all trying to

0:32:23.080 --> 0:32:25.480
<v Speaker 1>do something to farious, right, Like how do you maintain

0:32:26.320 --> 0:32:30.920
<v Speaker 1>a sensible brain when nefarious ship like this is going on? Sure?

0:32:31.160 --> 0:32:33.640
<v Speaker 1>And so here's where it's gonna make you even more

0:32:33.720 --> 0:32:37.560
<v Speaker 1>of an anti vaxer if you weren't already. Again, I'm

0:32:37.640 --> 0:32:42.680
<v Speaker 1>not an anti baxor are going to kill my career, Tonny.

0:32:42.720 --> 0:32:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Everything you said has been cleared. You're opposed to vaccines.

0:32:47.760 --> 0:32:52.640
<v Speaker 1>McCarty is your favorite actress. Everything you said, my publicist

0:32:52.720 --> 0:33:00.920
<v Speaker 1>is calling me right now. Are you live streaming this? Okay,

0:33:02.600 --> 0:33:05.480
<v Speaker 1>So it's not so much next, but it's actually more

0:33:05.520 --> 0:33:10.040
<v Speaker 1>of the history of this type of sterilization in America,

0:33:10.160 --> 0:33:13.040
<v Speaker 1>that like, this is not the foreign sort of like

0:33:13.240 --> 0:33:16.640
<v Speaker 1>dangerous thing for other countries that we've been sort of

0:33:16.680 --> 0:33:20.400
<v Speaker 1>like framing it as it's one something that has been

0:33:20.440 --> 0:33:23.920
<v Speaker 1>happening in America and continues to happen in America. Beginning

0:33:23.960 --> 0:33:28.000
<v Speaker 1>in nineteen o nine and continuing through the nineteen seventies,

0:33:28.200 --> 0:33:31.800
<v Speaker 1>the US developed a number of something basically called a

0:33:31.960 --> 0:33:37.120
<v Speaker 1>sexualization Acts, which lead to more than twenty thousand sterilizations

0:33:37.400 --> 0:33:44.760
<v Speaker 1>in California alone, just California. These are actual laws being created.

0:33:45.800 --> 0:33:48.920
<v Speaker 1>What what's the end game was? It? Was it racially motivated?

0:33:48.960 --> 0:33:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Were they trying to control certain aspects of the population

0:33:51.920 --> 0:33:56.080
<v Speaker 1>or just population control in general. It absolutely was a

0:33:56.160 --> 0:33:59.360
<v Speaker 1>form of population control, and I think what you're asking

0:33:59.400 --> 0:34:01.520
<v Speaker 1>as an imp and one, but it was rooted in

0:34:01.640 --> 0:34:05.320
<v Speaker 1>sort of like getting rid of what they basically considered

0:34:05.480 --> 0:34:09.920
<v Speaker 1>traits that were not ideal in human human beings, so

0:34:10.040 --> 0:34:13.480
<v Speaker 1>like it's a form of eugenics. But it was like

0:34:13.520 --> 0:34:17.920
<v Speaker 1>basically saying, this type of person tends to be more violent,

0:34:18.120 --> 0:34:22.520
<v Speaker 1>or less hard working, or less less of an asset

0:34:22.960 --> 0:34:26.120
<v Speaker 1>to the human experience, and therefore we will control their

0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:29.440
<v Speaker 1>population and not allow them to have more children. And

0:34:29.520 --> 0:34:33.719
<v Speaker 1>got it. Obviously who they picked was more often than

0:34:33.760 --> 0:34:36.919
<v Speaker 1>not black and brown people. Sure, because they're like, okay,

0:34:36.920 --> 0:34:39.240
<v Speaker 1>so we just want a collection of really great traits

0:34:39.239 --> 0:34:42.319
<v Speaker 1>for the human race. So let's not have any like, um,

0:34:42.320 --> 0:34:45.080
<v Speaker 1>what is it like wide noses or like, you know,

0:34:45.120 --> 0:34:48.600
<v Speaker 1>like full lips, like kinky hair is definitely not going

0:34:48.680 --> 0:34:51.080
<v Speaker 1>to take us to victory as a human race. Okay,

0:34:52.080 --> 0:34:56.200
<v Speaker 1>what is that? Like? Just bandlicking different words? I'm not

0:34:56.320 --> 0:34:57.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to pick a race. I don't want

0:34:57.680 --> 0:35:00.400
<v Speaker 1>to pick a race. That's not my style. It's not

0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:03.200
<v Speaker 1>about certain things I like in, certain things that I

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:06.440
<v Speaker 1>think are just more important than more hirable, you know,

0:35:06.920 --> 0:35:10.000
<v Speaker 1>Like I just think that very fair, just very burnable skin,

0:35:10.160 --> 0:35:12.640
<v Speaker 1>just skin that can't even hear about the sun, I

0:35:12.680 --> 0:35:17.239
<v Speaker 1>think is the most professional. So what makes it even

0:35:17.280 --> 0:35:20.200
<v Speaker 1>more fascinating is that in nineteen seven, one of the

0:35:20.239 --> 0:35:24.040
<v Speaker 1>reasons that this became like a big deal is that

0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:27.720
<v Speaker 1>in this Lady Carry Buck, who's this poor white lady

0:35:27.719 --> 0:35:32.040
<v Speaker 1>in Virginia is sterilized under a new law that the

0:35:32.200 --> 0:35:37.120
<v Speaker 1>Virginia government approves. The reason they sterilized Carry is that

0:35:37.200 --> 0:35:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Carrie's mother had been involuntary institutionalized for being what they

0:35:41.480 --> 0:35:45.400
<v Speaker 1>called basically promiscuous and crazy. Like they were basically calling

0:35:45.400 --> 0:35:50.000
<v Speaker 1>her like a loose nutcase um and carry was assumed

0:35:50.040 --> 0:35:54.240
<v Speaker 1>to have inherited those exact same traits and was sterilized

0:35:54.400 --> 0:35:58.920
<v Speaker 1>after giving birth. That they were like, your mom was wild.

0:35:59.080 --> 0:36:01.560
<v Speaker 1>We can't rise it, and so you being wild, We're

0:36:01.600 --> 0:36:04.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna cut that off. Oh my god, we're passing a

0:36:04.440 --> 0:36:07.560
<v Speaker 1>law called an end to the crazy fast bitches. Uh

0:36:08.680 --> 0:36:15.080
<v Speaker 1>you fast. You can't have children anymore. Old on now,

0:36:15.200 --> 0:36:17.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm titties out and you're talking a little while. We

0:36:17.680 --> 0:36:21.000
<v Speaker 1>might have to sterilize you. We might have to put

0:36:21.040 --> 0:36:25.000
<v Speaker 1>you down. Every uncle in that state voted for this,

0:36:25.960 --> 0:36:30.680
<v Speaker 1>of course, just every uncle. And you know there's something,

0:36:31.360 --> 0:36:33.680
<v Speaker 1>there's something sick in them. Where it was not only

0:36:33.719 --> 0:36:36.759
<v Speaker 1>did they want to sterilize them to keep them from reproducing,

0:36:36.760 --> 0:36:38.879
<v Speaker 1>but it also was like, also, I'm trying to fun

0:36:39.000 --> 0:36:42.600
<v Speaker 1>and not have any repercussions. I'm trying to I'm trying

0:36:42.600 --> 0:36:45.320
<v Speaker 1>to bust the nut and and not have any risks

0:36:45.440 --> 0:36:48.840
<v Speaker 1>on the other end of like being punished by having

0:36:48.920 --> 0:36:52.440
<v Speaker 1>some baby with a crazy lady. And we were worried

0:36:52.480 --> 0:36:54.560
<v Speaker 1>this topic would be too dark. But we're doing great,

0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:57.640
<v Speaker 1>We're doing We're killing it. I'm so proud of us.

0:36:57.719 --> 0:36:59.920
<v Speaker 1>Let's see how long we can maintain this, because they

0:37:00.040 --> 0:37:03.400
<v Speaker 1>kids getting darker now. In this same period, between the

0:37:03.480 --> 0:37:06.520
<v Speaker 1>nineteen twenties and the nineteen seventies, this Supreme Court case,

0:37:06.560 --> 0:37:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the one with Carrie buck Lad because she loses the case, right,

0:37:10.600 --> 0:37:13.440
<v Speaker 1>she basically like complains that, hey, this is fucked up.

0:37:13.840 --> 0:37:16.520
<v Speaker 1>I should have never been sterilized, and takes it all

0:37:16.520 --> 0:37:19.040
<v Speaker 1>the way to the Supreme Court and loses. And then

0:37:19.120 --> 0:37:23.279
<v Speaker 1>that case basically like solidifies this law into place and

0:37:23.440 --> 0:37:27.960
<v Speaker 1>leads to the sterilization of sixty five thousand Americans with

0:37:28.080 --> 0:37:32.800
<v Speaker 1>mental health illnesses and developmental disabilities from the nineteen twenties

0:37:32.840 --> 0:37:37.400
<v Speaker 1>to the nineteen seventies. I can't even process that. Sixty

0:37:37.520 --> 0:37:41.920
<v Speaker 1>five thousand people all because this lady's mom had a

0:37:42.000 --> 0:37:46.839
<v Speaker 1>hard time and she had a baby who wasn't having

0:37:46.880 --> 0:37:49.440
<v Speaker 1>a hard time, who was fine, who was fine, And

0:37:49.480 --> 0:37:52.120
<v Speaker 1>they thought that ship was genetic. They thought, like, what

0:37:52.280 --> 0:37:56.160
<v Speaker 1>was surely just the pressures and stressors of the time

0:37:56.200 --> 0:37:58.120
<v Speaker 1>of being a woman in the time and being poor

0:37:58.960 --> 0:38:02.879
<v Speaker 1>that made her run her mouth probably Yeah, they thought

0:38:02.880 --> 0:38:05.600
<v Speaker 1>that that ship was genetic. Oh my god, I would

0:38:05.640 --> 0:38:08.319
<v Speaker 1>have been murdered. I couldn't be from the past. If

0:38:08.320 --> 0:38:15.720
<v Speaker 1>I live, I couldn't be from the past. Is maybe

0:38:15.719 --> 0:38:23.000
<v Speaker 1>my favorite quote anybody's ever said out loud, Hey dog,

0:38:23.080 --> 0:38:29.120
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't be from the past. They would murder, murder me,

0:38:29.440 --> 0:38:33.120
<v Speaker 1>like real murder. Oh man. This is where it gets

0:38:33.160 --> 0:38:39.040
<v Speaker 1>even crazier is that there's also something called Mississippi appendectomies.

0:38:39.080 --> 0:38:43.800
<v Speaker 1>Have you heard of a Mississippi appendectomy? No, of course

0:38:44.840 --> 0:38:48.320
<v Speaker 1>it is not, Although it does sound delicious. It sounds

0:38:48.320 --> 0:38:50.600
<v Speaker 1>like it's gonna hit you in as spotty that none

0:38:50.640 --> 0:38:52.600
<v Speaker 1>of us know where it is in your body and

0:38:52.719 --> 0:38:55.799
<v Speaker 1>like get your real fucked up. But a Mississippi app

0:38:55.800 --> 0:38:57.880
<v Speaker 1>index to me, and we've talked about this once before

0:38:57.880 --> 0:39:00.680
<v Speaker 1>in the podcast, but the Mississippi app indect me was

0:39:00.760 --> 0:39:05.120
<v Speaker 1>a name for an unnecessary hysterectomy performed on black women,

0:39:05.239 --> 0:39:09.600
<v Speaker 1>specifically at teaching hospitals in the South that like, basically

0:39:09.640 --> 0:39:13.880
<v Speaker 1>they were teaching medical students how to like do stuff

0:39:14.280 --> 0:39:19.480
<v Speaker 1>as medical professionals, and in the process also taking women's

0:39:19.560 --> 0:39:23.400
<v Speaker 1>uteruses out. Jesus did I know the answer to this?

0:39:23.520 --> 0:39:27.759
<v Speaker 1>But did the women know the women? Of course, of course,

0:39:27.960 --> 0:39:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why I asked that. I just needed

0:39:30.520 --> 0:39:34.040
<v Speaker 1>I needed to ask it, and I don't know why.

0:39:34.080 --> 0:39:36.279
<v Speaker 1>I love the idea though, that they sat her down

0:39:36.480 --> 0:39:40.279
<v Speaker 1>and like, miss Johnson, I know you came in here

0:39:40.320 --> 0:39:42.399
<v Speaker 1>to get your tonsils out, but we've got some other

0:39:42.520 --> 0:39:46.960
<v Speaker 1>exciting opportunities that we're laying out for you. Is it optional? No,

0:39:47.080 --> 0:39:50.280
<v Speaker 1>it is not. Miss uh. We're gonna take that uterus,

0:39:50.320 --> 0:39:54.200
<v Speaker 1>but you should know before we do it. Jesus. I mean, well,

0:39:54.280 --> 0:39:56.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why. I'm shocked. I mean, it's happening now.

0:39:56.239 --> 0:40:00.320
<v Speaker 1>The story about the ice detention centers where they're direct

0:40:00.360 --> 0:40:02.440
<v Speaker 1>me is happening. And I think because I was already

0:40:02.480 --> 0:40:05.120
<v Speaker 1>bought into the now not so conspiracies out of this

0:40:05.160 --> 0:40:09.440
<v Speaker 1>conspiracy theory. You know, it's obviously so upsetting and horrifying,

0:40:09.520 --> 0:40:13.160
<v Speaker 1>but I absolutely was not shocked to read it. Yes,

0:40:13.640 --> 0:40:16.719
<v Speaker 1>it's one of those things where it's like, all right,

0:40:17.400 --> 0:40:20.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm not surprised, but damn, this hurts my heart. To

0:40:20.480 --> 0:40:23.200
<v Speaker 1>your point, it's like a tragic thing because we want

0:40:23.200 --> 0:40:26.880
<v Speaker 1>to believe that, like, Okay, we worked through this ship.

0:40:27.040 --> 0:40:29.759
<v Speaker 1>We got to a point where like at least as

0:40:29.760 --> 0:40:34.560
<v Speaker 1>a civilization. We're not just going to steal women's uteruses

0:40:34.640 --> 0:40:37.279
<v Speaker 1>in their sleep. If we're gonna mistreat people, will do

0:40:37.320 --> 0:40:40.280
<v Speaker 1>it when they're awake and they're at least like aware

0:40:40.320 --> 0:40:42.520
<v Speaker 1>of what's happening to them. But you know, it's quite

0:40:42.560 --> 0:40:46.560
<v Speaker 1>the opposite. It's like very sinister, intentional shit that's been

0:40:46.600 --> 0:40:51.520
<v Speaker 1>happening for hundreds of years. That's fucking wild. Yeah, it's wild.

0:40:51.640 --> 0:40:54.840
<v Speaker 1>The way that we treat people who we don't think

0:40:54.920 --> 0:40:59.239
<v Speaker 1>are hours like as a country, and that includes immigrants

0:40:59.239 --> 0:41:02.319
<v Speaker 1>and people who aren't citizens, but also just like black

0:41:02.320 --> 0:41:06.360
<v Speaker 1>and brown people, like it is wild. The fucking hoops

0:41:06.440 --> 0:41:09.680
<v Speaker 1>and hoop law and nonsense. You know, the right will

0:41:09.760 --> 0:41:13.040
<v Speaker 1>jump through to talk about unborn lives and protecting the

0:41:13.080 --> 0:41:15.640
<v Speaker 1>poor and bubble, and then it's just white people. Apparently

0:41:15.640 --> 0:41:19.439
<v Speaker 1>we just care about white people, and that's never been Yes,

0:41:20.120 --> 0:41:23.920
<v Speaker 1>it's not even kind of a conversation about like and

0:41:23.920 --> 0:41:26.480
<v Speaker 1>in part of the reason that even this lady Carrie

0:41:26.560 --> 0:41:30.279
<v Speaker 1>Buck is a person in history is because she was

0:41:30.320 --> 0:41:33.360
<v Speaker 1>a white woman who had this bad thing that was

0:41:33.440 --> 0:41:37.960
<v Speaker 1>happening nationally to so many other women, happened to her.

0:41:38.440 --> 0:41:40.600
<v Speaker 1>If it was a black woman She doesn't even get

0:41:40.640 --> 0:41:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to go to the Supreme Court about this ship. She

0:41:43.120 --> 0:41:45.760
<v Speaker 1>just takes the l and you don't get no babies,

0:41:45.760 --> 0:41:49.360
<v Speaker 1>no more, no more babies, no more a part of

0:41:49.400 --> 0:41:53.640
<v Speaker 1>your body. What a dark what a dark, terrible topic.

0:41:53.680 --> 0:41:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I've chosen um was not to not be so ignorant

0:41:57.760 --> 0:41:59.239
<v Speaker 1>about it, though, and to be like, oh no, this

0:41:59.280 --> 0:42:02.200
<v Speaker 1>ship is really happening. Okay, I don't have a uterus,

0:42:02.280 --> 0:42:04.440
<v Speaker 1>I never have, but I have to imagine getting it

0:42:04.520 --> 0:42:08.240
<v Speaker 1>taken out. You're gonna hear a little hollow uh, like thong,

0:42:08.480 --> 0:42:10.279
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, Like the dong when you

0:42:10.360 --> 0:42:13.759
<v Speaker 1>hit a door and it's hollow. You hear that. I've

0:42:13.800 --> 0:42:15.960
<v Speaker 1>only ever had a tooth taken out. That's all that's

0:42:15.960 --> 0:42:18.839
<v Speaker 1>been removed from my body forcibly. So I can't weigh in.

0:42:19.120 --> 0:42:23.080
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait. So here's where it gets even darker,

0:42:24.680 --> 0:42:28.760
<v Speaker 1>if you needed more darkness. It is estimated that twenty

0:42:28.800 --> 0:42:32.560
<v Speaker 1>five to fifty percent of Native American women were sterilized

0:42:32.600 --> 0:42:38.279
<v Speaker 1>between nineteen seventy and nineteen seventy six, six years. I

0:42:38.320 --> 0:42:41.520
<v Speaker 1>feel like I did hear about this now, I feel

0:42:41.560 --> 0:42:43.360
<v Speaker 1>like I've been hearing murmurs about this. But tell me

0:42:43.400 --> 0:42:45.719
<v Speaker 1>the details, because I obviously don't know. I don't think

0:42:45.760 --> 0:42:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I know many details either, But I think it's just

0:42:48.120 --> 0:42:50.759
<v Speaker 1>in the same way that you know smallpox was an

0:42:50.760 --> 0:42:53.880
<v Speaker 1>intentional murdering off of people. I think that there was

0:42:53.920 --> 0:42:59.320
<v Speaker 1>an effective plan put in place two sterilized Native American

0:42:59.400 --> 0:43:02.120
<v Speaker 1>women of us this nation, so much so that they

0:43:02.160 --> 0:43:05.759
<v Speaker 1>got half of them, which would answer the question of

0:43:05.840 --> 0:43:10.439
<v Speaker 1>why the population, amongst a plethora of other reasons, why

0:43:10.520 --> 0:43:14.400
<v Speaker 1>the population of these Native American groups continues to shrink

0:43:14.719 --> 0:43:19.560
<v Speaker 1>and disappear across our country, right along with like improper

0:43:19.640 --> 0:43:24.160
<v Speaker 1>access to just basic health care, that's a massive problem.

0:43:24.440 --> 0:43:26.319
<v Speaker 1>Do you feel like, I'm sure you've talked about this

0:43:26.320 --> 0:43:28.839
<v Speaker 1>on the pod before, but the whole adage of like

0:43:29.640 --> 0:43:31.719
<v Speaker 1>just because your paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to

0:43:31.760 --> 0:43:35.000
<v Speaker 1>get you. Do you feel like for black and brown

0:43:35.040 --> 0:43:40.399
<v Speaker 1>people especially, there is often there's often no line, there's

0:43:40.440 --> 0:43:43.840
<v Speaker 1>no clear line between which of these things are wild

0:43:43.920 --> 0:43:47.399
<v Speaker 1>ass conspiracies and because of the wilder ship that has

0:43:47.480 --> 0:43:50.560
<v Speaker 1>been done to us and people like us. Yes, and

0:43:50.800 --> 0:43:53.800
<v Speaker 1>I know I was being silly in the last segment,

0:43:53.880 --> 0:43:55.880
<v Speaker 1>but I do think that that's part of the reason

0:43:55.960 --> 0:43:59.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm so immediately bought in on so many conspiracy theories.

0:43:59.880 --> 0:44:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Is not because I genuinely believe that, like there's a

0:44:03.320 --> 0:44:06.840
<v Speaker 1>guy up in a scary tower who's twiddling his fingers

0:44:06.840 --> 0:44:09.440
<v Speaker 1>and thinking about evil shipped to do to us. But

0:44:09.560 --> 0:44:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I do think that so much of the way that

0:44:11.520 --> 0:44:16.000
<v Speaker 1>our society is built is on sinister ship that people

0:44:16.080 --> 0:44:19.920
<v Speaker 1>thought was effective or efficient or whatever it was. And

0:44:20.000 --> 0:44:23.120
<v Speaker 1>so now it can't be uncooked from the way that

0:44:23.160 --> 0:44:27.359
<v Speaker 1>we treat people or the way that we interact with communities. Right, So, like,

0:44:27.560 --> 0:44:32.279
<v Speaker 1>you don't get to steal away the ability to procreate

0:44:32.840 --> 0:44:37.160
<v Speaker 1>for half of an entire species of people and then

0:44:37.360 --> 0:44:41.120
<v Speaker 1>treat them like human beings. Right, you can't do that

0:44:41.239 --> 0:44:43.560
<v Speaker 1>and then go back and be like, I We're good,

0:44:43.600 --> 0:44:50.520
<v Speaker 1>We're square. Yeah, Yeah, what did you learn? You effectively,

0:44:50.960 --> 0:44:54.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, wipe them out, So there is no learning,

0:44:54.400 --> 0:44:57.319
<v Speaker 1>which means you'll continue to mistreat them or continue to

0:44:57.440 --> 0:45:01.319
<v Speaker 1>do something awful to them, be as what the funk

0:45:01.400 --> 0:45:04.319
<v Speaker 1>else are you gonna do? Yeah? And I mean, and

0:45:04.360 --> 0:45:07.879
<v Speaker 1>now I'm sitting here spinning about why you know, I mean,

0:45:07.920 --> 0:45:10.799
<v Speaker 1>in black culture, there's such a weight placed on like

0:45:11.440 --> 0:45:15.200
<v Speaker 1>knowledge and keeping a sharp eye and like, you know,

0:45:16.160 --> 0:45:19.399
<v Speaker 1>don't be caught slipping like, don't you know, not being

0:45:19.440 --> 0:45:22.200
<v Speaker 1>caught off guard by tricks like this and by things

0:45:22.200 --> 0:45:25.200
<v Speaker 1>like yes, okay, I'll tell you one more sad thing,

0:45:25.280 --> 0:45:28.239
<v Speaker 1>and then well, well maybe you have a breath. We'll

0:45:28.239 --> 0:45:30.200
<v Speaker 1>get to take a second away from all of this

0:45:30.320 --> 0:45:33.120
<v Speaker 1>heavy ship. And I should say before I tell you

0:45:33.200 --> 0:45:36.120
<v Speaker 1>this final thing, I did not have nearly enough time

0:45:36.160 --> 0:45:38.800
<v Speaker 1>to be able to dig into all of the examples

0:45:38.840 --> 0:45:43.360
<v Speaker 1>of sterilization that have happened nationally, internationally, any of that stuff,

0:45:43.560 --> 0:45:46.040
<v Speaker 1>but one of the final things. And I think it

0:45:46.040 --> 0:45:49.400
<v Speaker 1>would be unfair to talk about sterilization without bringing up

0:45:49.440 --> 0:45:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico apparently is known and it's understood

0:45:53.960 --> 0:45:58.439
<v Speaker 1>to be the most sterilized placed on this planet Earth

0:45:59.080 --> 0:46:03.520
<v Speaker 1>that like Noor else has suffered from sterilization more than

0:46:03.560 --> 0:46:09.040
<v Speaker 1>Puerto Rico. And between the nineteen thirties to the nineteen seventies,

0:46:09.080 --> 0:46:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Puerto Rico had nearly one third of its female population sterilized.

0:46:15.400 --> 0:46:19.640
<v Speaker 1>One third of the entire island was sterilized by I

0:46:19.760 --> 0:46:23.359
<v Speaker 1>presume just a bunch of different governments than people coming

0:46:23.400 --> 0:46:26.439
<v Speaker 1>in and being like Nope, we don't like y'all. Y'all

0:46:26.520 --> 0:46:30.560
<v Speaker 1>dumb it, saile y'all, ugly, we're gonna sterilize, Yeah, ugly.

0:46:31.000 --> 0:46:32.920
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if it was drug trials again, or if

0:46:32.960 --> 0:46:36.200
<v Speaker 1>it was just straight up, like no artifice at all,

0:46:36.280 --> 0:46:38.319
<v Speaker 1>just like come in here to get sterilized and you

0:46:38.360 --> 0:46:40.800
<v Speaker 1>have no choice. I have to imagine that it was

0:46:40.840 --> 0:46:44.120
<v Speaker 1>a combination of of all of the above that it's

0:46:44.200 --> 0:46:47.399
<v Speaker 1>like this became much in the way that like New

0:46:47.440 --> 0:46:51.480
<v Speaker 1>Mexico becomes the testing ground for our bombs, like this

0:46:51.640 --> 0:46:54.360
<v Speaker 1>just becomes like the testing ground for all the things

0:46:54.400 --> 0:46:57.840
<v Speaker 1>that we decide we want to do, both you know,

0:46:57.960 --> 0:47:01.359
<v Speaker 1>in our own backyards and across other countries. It's like

0:47:01.360 --> 0:47:04.200
<v Speaker 1>you've got this little island filled with brown people who

0:47:04.239 --> 0:47:07.400
<v Speaker 1>nobody otherwise gives a funk about will do whatever we

0:47:07.480 --> 0:47:11.040
<v Speaker 1>want to them. God damn man. I've said before I

0:47:11.040 --> 0:47:13.120
<v Speaker 1>couldn't be from the past. I don't think I can

0:47:13.160 --> 0:47:18.280
<v Speaker 1>be from now. I'm having a hard time being from now. Listen,

0:47:18.320 --> 0:47:20.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to be from the future, which is

0:47:20.320 --> 0:47:22.920
<v Speaker 1>a complicated place to be in as a person who's

0:47:22.920 --> 0:47:25.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna keep living, I have to keep living, but I

0:47:25.560 --> 0:47:27.160
<v Speaker 1>don't want to be a part of none of this ship.

0:47:27.280 --> 0:47:34.000
<v Speaker 1>It's wild. We should both not exist these feelings. All right,

0:47:34.040 --> 0:47:36.160
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna take a break, We're gonna plot how we

0:47:36.280 --> 0:47:38.640
<v Speaker 1>end our lives, and we'll be back with more Johnny

0:47:38.719 --> 0:47:56.840
<v Speaker 1>News and more, my mama told me. And we are backs,

0:47:56.840 --> 0:48:09.319
<v Speaker 1>go back, and we're back. We're back here with more

0:48:09.360 --> 0:48:11.719
<v Speaker 1>Tony News and more. My mama told me. I love

0:48:11.800 --> 0:48:14.479
<v Speaker 1>the look on everyone's face when they realized that that's

0:48:14.560 --> 0:48:17.000
<v Speaker 1>not the same song that they thought it was gonna be,

0:48:17.320 --> 0:48:21.000
<v Speaker 1>and it turns into something else. I'm just trying to

0:48:21.080 --> 0:48:24.000
<v Speaker 1>follow it. Did a man fall down a deep well?

0:48:25.360 --> 0:48:29.760
<v Speaker 1>I asked our wonderful producer Nick to blend the baby

0:48:29.840 --> 0:48:33.560
<v Speaker 1>song from Justin Bieber that everybody loves with a clip

0:48:33.640 --> 0:48:38.000
<v Speaker 1>from Intervention where a man basically has a full breakdown

0:48:38.040 --> 0:48:40.560
<v Speaker 1>because his son admits to him that he feels like

0:48:40.600 --> 0:48:44.400
<v Speaker 1>their relationship is permanently damaged. And that is the actual

0:48:44.480 --> 0:48:47.440
<v Speaker 1>sounds of a fifty year old man crying out loud,

0:48:48.560 --> 0:48:50.640
<v Speaker 1>mashed up with a fourteen year old man on the

0:48:50.640 --> 0:48:55.480
<v Speaker 1>precipice of something great, ye classic, you know, showing his

0:48:55.560 --> 0:48:57.560
<v Speaker 1>dick to us a lot. It depends on how you

0:48:57.560 --> 0:49:00.319
<v Speaker 1>want to look at Justin Bieber. He think I was

0:49:00.400 --> 0:49:02.920
<v Speaker 1>aware of the new phase of the Beabes I did

0:49:02.960 --> 0:49:06.320
<v Speaker 1>not know. Oh you didn't know. Be Yeah, this meanness

0:49:06.440 --> 0:49:09.560
<v Speaker 1>is out a lot. Now he loves Jesus and having

0:49:09.560 --> 0:49:12.399
<v Speaker 1>his penis out. But before there was a phase where

0:49:12.440 --> 0:49:15.720
<v Speaker 1>he was just being outside and sending out dick picks.

0:49:15.840 --> 0:49:19.000
<v Speaker 1>He had a wild, wild middle. I don't like either

0:49:19.080 --> 0:49:20.879
<v Speaker 1>one of those, and I would encourage him to find

0:49:20.920 --> 0:49:24.319
<v Speaker 1>something in between the two that's fair. And if I

0:49:24.360 --> 0:49:26.000
<v Speaker 1>ever get the chance to talk to him, I'll let

0:49:26.040 --> 0:49:28.000
<v Speaker 1>him know that you don't care for it at all.

0:49:28.680 --> 0:49:31.799
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much. Okay, I would love to play

0:49:31.800 --> 0:49:34.680
<v Speaker 1>a game. I have a fun game plan for us,

0:49:34.719 --> 0:49:37.920
<v Speaker 1>and it's a game that I like to call white lies. Ugly.

0:49:38.080 --> 0:49:42.080
<v Speaker 1>You're disgusting, I'm gonna kill you. Give me two white lies.

0:49:42.200 --> 0:49:44.839
<v Speaker 1>This is a fun game where I am going to

0:49:44.880 --> 0:49:49.799
<v Speaker 1>introduce to you a very standard, sort of widely accepted

0:49:50.239 --> 0:49:53.520
<v Speaker 1>white conspiracy theory, one that that white people tend to

0:49:53.520 --> 0:49:55.360
<v Speaker 1>believe in. And what I would like for you to

0:49:55.400 --> 0:49:59.040
<v Speaker 1>do is unpack why you think this conspiracy theory is

0:49:59.080 --> 0:50:02.879
<v Speaker 1>so important to white people. What are these sneaky motherfucker's

0:50:02.960 --> 0:50:06.719
<v Speaker 1>up to? Do? You know what I mean? The conspiracy

0:50:06.760 --> 0:50:08.440
<v Speaker 1>theory that I'm going to present to you. And this one,

0:50:08.520 --> 0:50:11.480
<v Speaker 1>similarly is a little heavy and a little rooted in truth.

0:50:11.840 --> 0:50:15.520
<v Speaker 1>The conspiracy theory that exists right now, maybe you've heard

0:50:15.680 --> 0:50:21.399
<v Speaker 1>that Yellowstone is actually a giant supervolcano. Yellowstone Park, as

0:50:21.440 --> 0:50:24.239
<v Speaker 1>we know it is, in fact a giant super volcano

0:50:24.360 --> 0:50:27.600
<v Speaker 1>that if it were to explode, would wipe out all

0:50:27.680 --> 0:50:31.840
<v Speaker 1>of like the United States and possibly all of North America.

0:50:32.200 --> 0:50:35.040
<v Speaker 1>It's massive and it could go off at any moment.

0:50:35.080 --> 0:50:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Have you heard that before? I have not. Why would

0:50:37.960 --> 0:50:42.480
<v Speaker 1>they hide it being a super Okay, all right, okay,

0:50:42.719 --> 0:50:46.959
<v Speaker 1>it is that part is not the the conspiracy theory

0:50:47.040 --> 0:50:51.319
<v Speaker 1>that is true. It is it has geysers, and like

0:50:51.440 --> 0:50:55.400
<v Speaker 1>we we know that it has volcanic activity right, yes, exactly,

0:50:55.800 --> 0:50:58.720
<v Speaker 1>and it hasn't exploded for a very very long time.

0:50:58.800 --> 0:51:01.279
<v Speaker 1>But in theory, it could explode at any moment and

0:51:01.320 --> 0:51:04.800
<v Speaker 1>we would all perish. Now, here's where the conspiracy comes

0:51:04.800 --> 0:51:08.319
<v Speaker 1>in is that some people believe that the government is

0:51:08.400 --> 0:51:12.719
<v Speaker 1>fully aware of the exact day and time that this guyser,

0:51:12.880 --> 0:51:15.719
<v Speaker 1>this giant volcano, whatever you want to call it, is

0:51:15.800 --> 0:51:20.520
<v Speaker 1>going to blow, and they are intentionally planning, basically ways

0:51:20.560 --> 0:51:24.239
<v Speaker 1>to protect themselves in this They being this sort of

0:51:24.280 --> 0:51:28.320
<v Speaker 1>like royal day, if you will, and leaving the whole

0:51:28.400 --> 0:51:32.239
<v Speaker 1>of America, the population to die in the ash that

0:51:32.360 --> 0:51:36.040
<v Speaker 1>is left behind. My question for you, why do you

0:51:36.120 --> 0:51:39.040
<v Speaker 1>think it's so important for white people to believe that

0:51:39.080 --> 0:51:44.120
<v Speaker 1>the government knows when this explosion is meant to happen? Okay, um,

0:51:44.239 --> 0:51:49.160
<v Speaker 1>thank you, My time starts now, Thank you very much. UM.

0:51:49.520 --> 0:51:51.880
<v Speaker 1>I think it's important for white people to know the

0:51:51.920 --> 0:51:54.120
<v Speaker 1>exact day of when the volcano's gonna erupt because white

0:51:54.120 --> 0:51:57.440
<v Speaker 1>people always want an exact time and date for everything.

0:51:57.920 --> 0:52:00.960
<v Speaker 1>You cannot put them on hold like a customer service

0:52:01.040 --> 0:52:03.160
<v Speaker 1>call without saying like, we will get to you in

0:52:03.400 --> 0:52:06.320
<v Speaker 1>three to six minutes, and if it's two minutes or

0:52:06.400 --> 0:52:09.080
<v Speaker 1>eight minutes you are getting, there's going to be a

0:52:09.239 --> 0:52:12.879
<v Speaker 1>nasty comment card filled out. So they want they want

0:52:12.920 --> 0:52:15.680
<v Speaker 1>to predictable, because don't leave a white person waiting, even

0:52:15.760 --> 0:52:17.560
<v Speaker 1>if it's for the end of the world, even if

0:52:17.600 --> 0:52:19.759
<v Speaker 1>it's for the death of them and everyone they've ever met.

0:52:20.120 --> 0:52:23.480
<v Speaker 1>They want to know exactly when, and they believe their

0:52:23.560 --> 0:52:25.920
<v Speaker 1>right to know. Whereas I mean, black people haven't been

0:52:25.960 --> 0:52:29.040
<v Speaker 1>told ship ever. I mean as soon as the boats

0:52:29.080 --> 0:52:31.640
<v Speaker 1>picked us up and they didn't tell us anything, and

0:52:31.760 --> 0:52:33.960
<v Speaker 1>that's been a thing. Yeah, they weren't like, hey, we're

0:52:33.960 --> 0:52:39.879
<v Speaker 1>gonna be there in uh sixteen days, ten minutes before

0:52:39.960 --> 0:52:42.600
<v Speaker 1>we leave. No, we have never known the time. That's

0:52:42.600 --> 0:52:45.480
<v Speaker 1>why we are never late. We are never late. Even

0:52:45.520 --> 0:52:47.880
<v Speaker 1>if we're late, we're not late. No one told us.

0:52:48.239 --> 0:52:50.919
<v Speaker 1>And that's tell us the time the first time we've

0:52:50.960 --> 0:52:54.080
<v Speaker 1>been recalibrating from the original time. You funked up on it.

0:52:54.560 --> 0:52:56.920
<v Speaker 1>That's why Black people are late all the time, because

0:52:56.920 --> 0:52:58.680
<v Speaker 1>when you didn't tell us when we were leaving the

0:52:58.840 --> 0:53:02.080
<v Speaker 1>first time from Africa. So now we're just trying to

0:53:02.200 --> 0:53:05.479
<v Speaker 1>catch back up from that original fucked up date and time.

0:53:05.800 --> 0:53:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. We showed up to a country that was

0:53:08.080 --> 0:53:10.839
<v Speaker 1>already started that we didn't know, so we showed up late.

0:53:11.040 --> 0:53:13.520
<v Speaker 1>We were late to the very first America meeting. And

0:53:13.640 --> 0:53:16.200
<v Speaker 1>then I'll try to act like we fucked up when

0:53:16.280 --> 0:53:18.080
<v Speaker 1>we didn't even know we were coming here. So you

0:53:18.120 --> 0:53:20.560
<v Speaker 1>know what, White people always want to know when ship

0:53:20.680 --> 0:53:22.799
<v Speaker 1>is happening because they believe that as their god given

0:53:22.880 --> 0:53:25.759
<v Speaker 1>right because they started this country on their time and

0:53:25.920 --> 0:53:29.520
<v Speaker 1>everything happens on their time. I love that. That's God Damn,

0:53:29.600 --> 0:53:35.640
<v Speaker 1>that's beautiful. Cool motherfuck com I love that, you know why,

0:53:35.760 --> 0:53:38.000
<v Speaker 1>because I think there's so much truth in that. I

0:53:38.120 --> 0:53:40.840
<v Speaker 1>think that there's so much evidence. Even now, we're in

0:53:40.920 --> 0:53:42.960
<v Speaker 1>the middle of what I would argue is one of

0:53:43.040 --> 0:53:45.960
<v Speaker 1>the scariest times that I've ever heard of, at least

0:53:46.000 --> 0:53:49.400
<v Speaker 1>in terms of our like existence as a species on

0:53:49.480 --> 0:53:53.120
<v Speaker 1>this planet. And white people are still gonna carrying their

0:53:53.200 --> 0:53:56.000
<v Speaker 1>way through it. They're still going to shake their heads

0:53:56.080 --> 0:53:59.680
<v Speaker 1>and complain to a manager about the apocalypse that, like,

0:53:59.800 --> 0:54:03.640
<v Speaker 1>the apocalypse is happening, and you still are unsatisfied with

0:54:03.760 --> 0:54:06.440
<v Speaker 1>the way that the apocalypse is happening and the timing

0:54:06.840 --> 0:54:10.640
<v Speaker 1>that it all falls into. Yep, exactly, because truly, like

0:54:11.080 --> 0:54:13.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and this is this is serious, like before

0:54:13.560 --> 0:54:14.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, I got to be on my little fer

0:54:15.120 --> 0:54:19.680
<v Speaker 1>con esque soapbox, but like seriously like wanting to know

0:54:19.960 --> 0:54:23.320
<v Speaker 1>when and how and where things happen. It's all just

0:54:23.440 --> 0:54:25.799
<v Speaker 1>a means of season control. And I know this because

0:54:25.800 --> 0:54:27.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm a very controlling person, and you and I are

0:54:27.960 --> 0:54:30.760
<v Speaker 1>in a business where we have no control. This business

0:54:30.800 --> 0:54:34.080
<v Speaker 1>constantly tests us and pulls us and yanks us around.

0:54:34.520 --> 0:54:37.239
<v Speaker 1>And when you are a controlling person, or let's say,

0:54:37.280 --> 0:54:40.000
<v Speaker 1>when you are a controlling class of people. When you're

0:54:40.000 --> 0:54:42.960
<v Speaker 1>a controlling demographic because you have been given all of

0:54:43.040 --> 0:54:46.879
<v Speaker 1>the control for centuries on the whole as globe. When

0:54:46.960 --> 0:54:49.080
<v Speaker 1>you are not, when you don't have control over when

0:54:49.200 --> 0:54:50.640
<v Speaker 1>or how or where something is going to happen, this

0:54:50.719 --> 0:54:54.719
<v Speaker 1>is deeply like anxiety producing. So of course white people

0:54:54.760 --> 0:54:56.839
<v Speaker 1>want to know when the volcano is going to blow up,

0:54:56.920 --> 0:55:00.360
<v Speaker 1>like that's real. This may in fact comfort some of

0:55:00.400 --> 0:55:04.439
<v Speaker 1>our white listeners is that it's not a shameful thing

0:55:04.880 --> 0:55:08.160
<v Speaker 1>that that's your instinct because it is cooked into your

0:55:08.239 --> 0:55:11.520
<v Speaker 1>experience as a white person on this planet. You have

0:55:11.719 --> 0:55:15.440
<v Speaker 1>only known control. Therefore, to not have it even in

0:55:15.520 --> 0:55:20.600
<v Speaker 1>the face of what is completely unpredictable, you get frustrated,

0:55:20.680 --> 0:55:23.200
<v Speaker 1>and so you want to create a narrative where there

0:55:23.400 --> 0:55:27.000
<v Speaker 1>is a secret person or secret entity that has control

0:55:27.080 --> 0:55:31.120
<v Speaker 1>over this thing, because otherwise you are trapped, like all

0:55:31.239 --> 0:55:33.840
<v Speaker 1>of us, at the whim of a god or a

0:55:34.320 --> 0:55:37.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, a fate, whatever you want to call it. Yeah,

0:55:37.440 --> 0:55:41.280
<v Speaker 1>or just wild ass nature. That's terrifying because it's chaotic

0:55:41.360 --> 0:55:44.759
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, it's science, but it's random. I mean, well,

0:55:44.920 --> 0:55:49.520
<v Speaker 1>welcome to it. Anyone, who I mean, you ever want

0:55:49.560 --> 0:55:52.359
<v Speaker 1>to see see a real experiment is to look if

0:55:52.400 --> 0:55:54.279
<v Speaker 1>you're in a supermarket and there's one long line for

0:55:54.320 --> 0:55:56.120
<v Speaker 1>a cashier, look at the faces of the black people

0:55:56.280 --> 0:55:59.040
<v Speaker 1>versus look at the white people, like truly, the white

0:55:59.040 --> 0:56:02.200
<v Speaker 1>people will be shifting, are uncomfortable. Black people have resigned

0:56:02.239 --> 0:56:06.239
<v Speaker 1>ourselves to wait. We have been waiting. Yes we wait,

0:56:06.440 --> 0:56:09.320
<v Speaker 1>and yes we might cuss somebody out in the process

0:56:09.360 --> 0:56:12.560
<v Speaker 1>of waiting, we might say some ship, but we more

0:56:12.680 --> 0:56:16.239
<v Speaker 1>or less are going to wait our turn in that process,

0:56:16.560 --> 0:56:19.680
<v Speaker 1>whereas white people, I think, are constantly wanting to get

0:56:19.800 --> 0:56:22.480
<v Speaker 1>out of the line to somehow find their way in

0:56:22.640 --> 0:56:25.719
<v Speaker 1>a different place in the line, which you know how,

0:56:26.520 --> 0:56:29.320
<v Speaker 1>you know how it works, and that's not how the

0:56:29.400 --> 0:56:33.800
<v Speaker 1>volcano is gonna work. That's not how the volcano is

0:56:33.960 --> 0:56:36.640
<v Speaker 1>going to work. I love that, Tawny. I think we

0:56:36.800 --> 0:56:39.279
<v Speaker 1>did it. What a wonderful time. I had a great

0:56:39.320 --> 0:56:42.040
<v Speaker 1>time talking to you. I had a really fun time.

0:56:42.480 --> 0:56:44.600
<v Speaker 1>This makes me want to like pull out all my

0:56:44.760 --> 0:56:47.520
<v Speaker 1>like I want my glowing eyes, I want my can

0:56:47.640 --> 0:56:50.200

0:56:56.800 --> 0:56:59.160
<v Speaker 1>hope that's what you're wearing. I pray to God that

0:56:59.360 --> 0:57:01.879
