I know that's right, and let's get into 0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:24.120 the front page. Now, let's start with NBA. The Bulls 0:02:24.160 --> 0:02:26.519 beat the Raptors last night, why nine one to five 0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:29.639 playing tournament and the thunder beat the Pelicans one twenty three, 0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:32.200 one eighteen.

Teslin, good morning, Good morning, DJ Envy, 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:45.480 Charlomagne the God, and B Scott, Big Scot. Yes, let's start, 0:02:45.520 --> 0:02:48.480 let's get right into it. Justin J. Pearson was he reinstated? 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:52.200 What happened with him in Tennessee? Yes, Justin J. Pearson 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:56.480 was reinstated. Local officials unanimously voted on Wednesday to sin 0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.920 Representative Justin J. Pearson, one of the two black Democratic 0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:03.280 representatives who were out who was outstiff from Tennessee House 0:03:03.320 --> 0:03:06.960 of Representatives after a gun control protests on the House floor, 0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:10.079 back to his seat in the state legislature. Now, the 0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:13.200 vote came less than a week after mister Pearson and 0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:17.360 Justin Jones of Nashville were abruptly expelled, and now they 0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:20.639 are back. Remember earlier this week on Monday, they sent 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:24.280 back Justin Jones, and so yesterday was the opportunity for 0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:28.760 mister Pearson to be voted back to be interim basically 0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:31.400 replace himself. Now, I want people to remember that this 0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:35.000 is temporary, both him and Justin Jones. They will still 0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:37.880 have to go through a special election. We don't know 0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:40.280 when that date will be at a general election. So, 0:03:40.440 --> 0:03:42.920 like we mentioned the other day in the interview, if 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.760 you do support these two gentlemen, make sure that you 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:48.360 don't forget about this story after this week, because they're 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:50.920 going to need your support. Now, take a listen to 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:54.600 Representative Pearson's victory speech and just a little bit of 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:56.640 his victory's speech, and we'll discuss on the other side 0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:04.360 that's gonna change this country in this moment in time 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:15.320 in the country. I'm so glad. So both Justin's are 0:04:15.360 --> 0:04:17.800 back in the Tennessee House. That is amazing. But let's 0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:19.640 not forget why they got expelled in the first place, 0:04:19.680 --> 0:04:21.480 and that was because they were pushing the line for 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:24.120 common sense gun reform. I know those drums sound good, 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.720 and I know those speeches sound good. Well, let's not 0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.880 forget what they got expelled for in the first place. 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:33.760 That is the issue I speak Scott, what do you 0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:36.440 what did you think about it yesterday when they were 0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:38.120 I don't want to see performing, but in front of 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:40.440 the in front of the state building, and they were 0:04:40.640 --> 0:04:43.200 playing the drums and they were talking about everything but 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.520 what they got expelled for. Um. I felt like it 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:48.400 was a circus. I felt like it was making a 0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:50.719 spectacle or something that we should be taking very seriously. 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:53.480 And the gun reform in this country is something that 0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:55.840 you you know, mean, like it's like every day we're 0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:59.160 waking up to these mass shootings. It's like it's almost 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:01.640 like groundhouse day every day, and it's like, you know, 0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:05.600 and it's it's easy to not relate to it when 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:07.760 it's not you, but you have to think, one day 0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.600 it's going to be you. That's right, He's not talking. 0:05:10.600 --> 0:05:12.000 I didn't see the whole speech, so I don't know 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:13.839 if he was felt like his performance. Was he talking 0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:15.360 about gunning from I'm sure he was, because when you 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:17.720 were on a breakfast club, he never got off message 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:20.560 of we need to get comments his gunner for Yeah, 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:23.800 he did talk about it. Um. But you know, his 0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:27.040 style of you know, delivery is you know, he's the 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:30.480 son of a pastor. Uh and so you that's his 0:05:30.600 --> 0:05:33.200 style of delivery. And I'm glad you said that, be Scott, 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:37.200 because you know, we did an interview with Justin Pearson 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:40.080 the other day and you know a lot of folks 0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:42.720 may not like, you know, those questions being asked, you know, 0:05:42.880 --> 0:05:45.720 kind of going sticking to the the actual issues. Um. 0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:47.360 And I think the ear and I would love to 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:50.080 talk about the interview recap quickly. The ear is so 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:53.680 accustomed to the performance of it all. And I'm not 0:05:53.760 --> 0:05:57.480 saying that to be disingenuous to him catching the holy 0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.160 goals or you know, whatever emotion came with him. But 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:05.279 we have trained our ears to prioritize politicians over people. 0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:08.920 You know, people have no problem with someone coming to 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.480 the breakfast club and pressuring a rapper to ask you 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.920 know who did you date last? And enforcing that are asking, hey, 0:06:15.120 --> 0:06:17.800 a reality show person, you know, tell us the tea. 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:22.600 But when we have politicians, there has been a trained 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.960 ear that is accustomed to listening to the filibuster. So 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.800 when folks said, we don't tell, you kind of interrupted him. Well, 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:30.800 that's a part of strategy. I've actually been doing this 0:06:30.880 --> 0:06:35.400 twenty years, believe it or not. The numbers, yes, let's 0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:37.880 do them, Let's do the man. I am the host 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:40.560 of Straight Shot, No Chaser, and so a lot of 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:44.479 times when you see politicians come, they're training a filibuster. 0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:46.600 If I say what is your black policy? You know 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:49.960 they immediately going to well, you know, I black girls 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:54.680 and black boys and black policy. Oh. People have not 0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:57.320 been a customer. And I just want to put it 0:06:57.400 --> 0:06:59.840 on the record for those that don't know me, because 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:03.000 see me in this form be Scott where it's very 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:05.280 you know, I'm a moderator when I'm doing the front 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:07.800 page news. But just to be clear in case you didn't, 0:07:07.800 --> 0:07:09.600 I watched the five times that I came to breakfast 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:13.120 club and we're interviewed. I prioritize people over politicians. I've 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.000 been doing in my entire career. I'm not a Democrat, 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.800 I'm not a Republican. I don't fangirl over politicians. I 0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.080 believe that they can recover from the interview, but black 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:23.360 people cannot recover from four hundred years of oppression. I 0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:30.160 do believe. And I got a little past hallelujah. Yeah, 0:07:30.400 --> 0:07:35.480 And so absolutely we have to be very clear about that. 0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:37.680 And for the folks that don't know, I give the 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:40.920 same exact energy, if not worse to white folks on 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.760 Fox News. I duck no rex, I take all faiths. 0:07:43.840 --> 0:07:46.320 I will line them up, line them up, Democrat, Republican, 0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:49.200 across the board. So let there be no confusion on 0:07:49.440 --> 0:07:52.440 my energy and asking that young man the tough questions. 0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.720 But we also were very clear. The interview was saying 0:07:55.680 --> 0:07:58.480 that nobody should be expelled for their voice. You know, nobody. 0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:00.920 They shouldn't have never been expelled. I was. I was 0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:04.400 basically saying, listen, we support you, but I cannot and 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:06.560 I'll say this and I'll wrap it up when you 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:10.600 every last story has said, you know, black black black black, black, 0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:13.360 black black elected official black and official. So I must 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.600 be responsible and say, what are you doing for the 0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:20.000 sixty percent of black people? In your district. Right, that's 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:22.120 a fair question. And I was hoping a brother will 0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:25.320 come back and say, hey, my district suffers x amount 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:27.880 of you know, gun violence, and so me being out 0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:30.120 of that seat means that I can't help those black 0:08:30.160 --> 0:08:32.959 folks in my district. And so rather than people getting 0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.760 upset at me for asking where is white man Bob Freeman, 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:39.240 who is not taking a stand, who actually who actually 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:43.000 represents the victims who were slaughtered? Go ask where Bobby is? 0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:45.640 Don't ask why why I asked where Bobby is? But 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:49.360 ask Bob, where is Bob? What you're saying is we 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:51.640 should be able to challenge and critique any elected official, 0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:53.920 especially you know, if you voted for them, and if 0:08:53.920 --> 0:08:57.080 you upset, if you upset about us challenging democrats, y'all 0:08:57.080 --> 0:09:00.240 about to stay mad. That's right now and right, and 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:02.959 don't never feel away because that's why your head like 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:04.920 you know, like I was telling you early, behind the scenes, 0:09:05.240 --> 0:09:08.800 for myself, I'm surface political. I just don't dive into 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:10.360 it like you know. I mean, when we talk real estate, 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:12.000 I dive into it. When we talk about other things, 0:09:12.080 --> 0:09:19.400 I dive into it. You dive into it into But 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:21.480 when it comes to that politics. This is what you do. 0:09:21.640 --> 0:09:23.439 You got the facts and that's why we trust you. 0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:26.240 So we appreciate you. So never back down to some cows. 0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:30.040 You got me riled up. Yes, we'll be doing all right. 0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:34.200 Let's see you in a little bit test all right, 0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:36.600 Get it off your chests.

This is the rumor report has been 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:33.480 asking me quite on the breakfast club. I wasn't going 0:19:33.520 --> 0:19:36.200 to come to you, but I had it goes a 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:45.719 little something like this, maybe we had to do. Yes 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:49.159 the way back to my YouTube day. Absolutely, you know, 0:19:49.280 --> 0:19:51.520 I was one of the first YouTube celebrities. Yes, one 0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:54.120 of the first blog you know, celebrity bloggers, YouTube celebrities 0:19:54.119 --> 0:19:55.919 all that. Did you make money off you back then? 0:19:56.080 --> 0:19:57.960 I did. I was one of the first people accepted 0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:01.719 into their little partnership. Okay, but it wasn't much back then. 0:20:01.960 --> 0:20:03.680 I mean it was a couple of thousand dollars each month. 0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:07.480 Good opportunity. Absolutely. I mean, like I was going viral 0:20:07.600 --> 0:20:10.040 before that was a term. Wow, you know what I'm saying, 0:20:10.040 --> 0:20:12.280 Like millions of yous. Like my very first video that 0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:15.280 I did went viral and I was talking about Shamar 0:20:15.359 --> 0:20:17.680 Moore being naked. I was so excited to see him naked. 0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:20.119 I was like, Chamara Moore's ding ding. I was so 0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:23.800 excited about it. It was the photos of him coming 0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:26.520 out the water on the beach I remember and the 0:20:26.640 --> 0:20:30.720 things that well, it really more months you want to 0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:34.200 see it more or less it was it was neither. 0:20:34.400 --> 0:20:36.480 It was kind of in between. Okay, that's about me. Yeah, 0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:40.600 oh this this took a shop writ It was like 0:20:42.080 --> 0:20:45.680 the sun get loved man, So dropping a clues bomb 0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:49.479 for oh there it is. Yes, okay little man, all right, 0:20:49.480 --> 0:20:51.760 what we are and where we are is this? This 0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:53.880 is something that hits home for me because this person 0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:56.639 is someone that's very special to me. Um. He actually 0:20:56.800 --> 0:20:59.600 gave me one of the biggest opportunities of my career. 0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:03.280 Early on, I had a serious XM radio show on 0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:06.720 Jamie Fox's Foxhole, the Best Guy Show. UM. And he 0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:08.720 did it at a time where no one you know, 0:21:08.880 --> 0:21:11.920 I came before the inclusion you see today. So you know, 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:14.440 everyone now is getting on the you know, the bandwagon 0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:17.440 and being more accepting. But back then, what he did 0:21:17.640 --> 0:21:20.359 was huge because no one was trying to, you know, 0:21:20.640 --> 0:21:23.159 give opportunity like that to someone like me. And so 0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:26.440 I will forever be grateful to Jamie Fox. And so 0:21:26.560 --> 0:21:29.359 when I heard that he had a medical complication and 0:21:29.400 --> 0:21:33.480 a medical emergency, that really affected me. And you know, 0:21:33.600 --> 0:21:36.960 that's what happened so over I think the last couple 0:21:36.960 --> 0:21:39.600 of days. I don't know what date exactly it happened, 0:21:39.680 --> 0:21:44.120 but he suffered a medical complication. His daughter Kreeing Fox, 0:21:44.280 --> 0:21:46.640 she posted this note We wanted to share that my father, 0:21:46.760 --> 0:21:51.080 Jamie Fox, experienced a medical complication yesterday. Luckily, due to 0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:54.160 quick action, great care, he is already on his way 0:21:54.200 --> 0:21:58.240 back to recovery, healing energy to Jamie Fox. And I'm wondering, 0:21:58.280 --> 0:22:01.200 man only really getting that old, yes where at that 0:22:01.280 --> 0:22:04.440 age where people around us are having medical complications or 0:22:04.560 --> 0:22:07.800 medical emergencies. I'll be honest, asking away from strokes and attacks. 0:22:08.080 --> 0:22:10.120 I don't think it's the age. I think it's something else. 0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:13.080 It's probably the process food. It's something else because there's 0:22:13.080 --> 0:22:14.879 a lot of brothers out there and a lot of 0:22:14.920 --> 0:22:17.040 sisters out there that are getting these complications a lot 0:22:17.160 --> 0:22:19.640 earlier and earlier and earlier, and it's scaring the issue 0:22:19.640 --> 0:22:21.399 out of me. And it makes me think, what you know, 0:22:21.560 --> 0:22:25.480 because they she said, due to quick action. So if 0:22:25.560 --> 0:22:28.320 they didn't act quickly, what would have happened? So it 0:22:28.359 --> 0:22:30.320 makes you think something something sudden. It would have to 0:22:30.440 --> 0:22:32.440 either be like a stroke or a heart attack or 0:22:32.480 --> 0:22:34.119 something of that nature. I mean, I hate to kind of, 0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:36.919 you know, speculate about somebody's health, but at the end 0:22:36.960 --> 0:22:41.040 of the day, like what would require quick action, you know, 0:22:41.160 --> 0:22:43.320 and it's just like so unexpected because you know, you 0:22:43.480 --> 0:22:46.040 think you know you it's like, wow, like Jamie, you 0:22:46.160 --> 0:22:48.719 see him, he seemed so healthy. You would never expect 0:22:49.080 --> 0:22:51.760 a medical complication out of nowhere. I told y'all, over 0:22:51.800 --> 0:22:54.800 the last few months, I did every single cardiovascular test 0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:57.160 you could possibly do. I did discress tests, I wore 0:22:57.200 --> 0:22:59.399 a heart monitor, I did the I can't remember the 0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:01.359 technical term for where they put like the ink inside 0:23:01.359 --> 0:23:03.440 you because so they can see inside the audi, the 0:23:03.560 --> 0:23:06.040 calcium test. I did all of that just to make 0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:08.960 sure and that you know, yeah, I would say, And 0:23:09.000 --> 0:23:11.240 that still doesn't matter, because in any given moment, anything 0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:14.840 could happen, some stuff like my calcium was seventy six 0:23:14.920 --> 0:23:17.320 and you know they wanted to be zero. And plus 0:23:17.400 --> 0:23:20.040 heart disease runs in my family, so and then um, 0:23:20.560 --> 0:23:24.080 I had a little cholesterol. I mean. And for example, 0:23:24.200 --> 0:23:27.720 like my long time podcast producer of ten years passed 0:23:27.720 --> 0:23:30.159 away in like a month, like literally he was in 0:23:30.240 --> 0:23:32.080 the hospital at the first of the month and was 0:23:32.160 --> 0:23:35.399 dead by the end of the month, leukemia. I had 0:23:35.480 --> 0:23:38.880 some type of rare form of multiple something something something leukemia. 0:23:39.160 --> 0:23:40.840 And that affected me because of the fact that, like 0:23:41.000 --> 0:23:43.240 you know, he was literally one of the nicest people 0:23:43.600 --> 0:23:46.600 I've ever met and believed in me. Our last meeting 0:23:46.640 --> 0:23:48.959 I had with him was him he got a new 0:23:49.040 --> 0:23:50.639 job and he didn't know how he was going to 0:23:50.720 --> 0:23:52.639 help me, but he just wanted to meet about the 0:23:52.680 --> 0:23:57.000 potential of helping me. And he was forty I think 0:23:57.040 --> 0:24:00.600 forty one. We tell everybody, definitely go to the doctor 0:24:00.880 --> 0:24:03.320 and you get yourself checked out, and we talk about 0:24:03.480 --> 0:24:05.879 you know, Charlemagne and I joke about, you know, getting 0:24:05.960 --> 0:24:09.560 checked out, and I don't joke about it, Yes, and 0:24:09.960 --> 0:24:11.800 we talk about it. But you know, like I said 0:24:11.880 --> 0:24:14.600 that they found they found what two polyps and and 0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:17.200 you know, they got him removed from me, and one 0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:19.280 of them, you know, could have been cancerous. I had 0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:23.439 no polyps, no, no nods. Yes, And oh my goodness, 0:24:23.440 --> 0:24:25.159 we didn't have time to get to my exclusive, but 0:24:25.240 --> 0:24:28.399 we will be dropping a Housewives of Atlanta exclusive in 0:24:28.480 --> 0:24:30.879 the next hour.

I know that's right, 0:25:22.520 --> 0:25:25.840 and let's get in some front page news. Teslager, good morning, 0:25:26.600 --> 0:25:29.920 Good morning. How are you feeling. I'm doing good. I'm 0:25:29.960 --> 0:25:33.000 distracted by Charlomagne's fan though, shout out the flame row. 0:25:33.240 --> 0:25:37.360 You already know yes, she said to make sure. She said, 0:25:37.520 --> 0:25:39.320 you could you use the the one where she's naked 0:25:39.400 --> 0:25:42.719 on it, So she said, you could on that one, 0:25:42.880 --> 0:25:46.359 the one behind you. She I'm using this fan because 0:25:46.400 --> 0:25:51.359 it's hot, Okay, okay, whatever, that's what I'm using. Some 0:25:51.480 --> 0:25:53.600 front page news. The NBA got, of course, to play 0:25:53.600 --> 0:25:55.479 in tournament. The Bulls beat the Raptors last night one 0:25:55.560 --> 0:25:57.680 or nine, one on five, the Thunder beat the Pelicans 0:25:57.720 --> 0:26:00.760 one twenty three, one eighteen. Now, tell what is going 0:26:00.800 --> 0:26:03.439 on in Mexico? Is Mexico sto. I just got back 0:26:03.440 --> 0:26:05.399 to Mexico. I was in nine days and it was 0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:09.080 I didn't have no problems. You're right, we all had security, 0:26:10.119 --> 0:26:11.960 were staying in a gated place. And where were you 0:26:12.040 --> 0:26:15.720 in Mexico? We was like twenty minutes outside of KENCOO. Okay, yeah. 0:26:16.080 --> 0:26:19.359 We urged you not to go, and we did. And 0:26:19.480 --> 0:26:21.600 the reason why is because it was actually when this 0:26:21.760 --> 0:26:24.280 story actually happened. So I want to give an update 0:26:24.320 --> 0:26:26.200 on that because many of you remember the story that 0:26:26.280 --> 0:26:28.600 we saw, you know, all over social media, where the 0:26:28.640 --> 0:26:31.960 four black Americans were kidnapped in Mexico. So when that happened, 0:26:31.960 --> 0:26:33.720 we talked about it here on the Breakfast Club, of course, 0:26:34.320 --> 0:26:37.399 and so there's been an update on the again. The 0:26:37.480 --> 0:26:42.200 four black Americans that were kidnapp LaTavia Washington McGee, Eric Williams, 0:26:42.359 --> 0:26:46.320 Shadid Woodard, and Zendale Brown. They were attacked and kidnapped 0:26:46.320 --> 0:26:48.479 by the Mexican cartel on March third, while they were 0:26:48.520 --> 0:26:50.800 on their way to a medical appointment. One of the 0:26:50.880 --> 0:26:53.880 things I found really frustrating about this is online people 0:26:53.920 --> 0:26:56.119 were kind of making up their own stories, saying, you know, 0:26:56.160 --> 0:26:58.200 they must have been up there selling drugs and donte 0:26:58.200 --> 0:27:00.320 and they just kind of remember that they just ran 0:27:00.480 --> 0:27:04.359 with it. So now they've come back to tell their story. 0:27:04.480 --> 0:27:06.280 And of course, you know, they confirmed that they were 0:27:06.359 --> 0:27:08.680 driving across the US border, saw a gun in the 0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:12.040 car there, beginning a shootout began. Three of them were shot, 0:27:12.320 --> 0:27:15.120 then they were loaded into the truck at gunpoint. Now 0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:17.880 McGee said that they kept promising to give medical attention 0:27:18.920 --> 0:27:22.360 to the victims that were shot, but unfortunately waited too late. 0:27:22.400 --> 0:27:25.640 Two of them passed away, and Eric Williams did survive. 0:27:25.720 --> 0:27:28.800 They eventually gave him medical attention for his leg. Now, 0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:32.240 both McGee and william sat down with Anderson Cooper on 0:27:32.359 --> 0:27:36.240 CNN to give an exclusive interview about the horrific experience. 0:27:36.480 --> 0:27:41.200 Take a listen. Were they threatening to you and violence 0:27:41.400 --> 0:27:45.359 and sexual violence and they're trying to make us have 0:27:45.640 --> 0:27:49.879 sex with each other but brother and sister and that 0:27:50.000 --> 0:27:53.119 she was pregnant. What did they say to you? They 0:27:53.280 --> 0:27:55.720 was like, what are y'all? We said brothers and sisters, 0:27:56.080 --> 0:27:58.320 and they was like, have sex with each other. I 0:27:58.480 --> 0:28:01.080 was like, no, these are my brothers. I'm pregnant. They 0:28:01.320 --> 0:28:03.399 I don't know. They had me blindfold covered up. They 0:28:03.440 --> 0:28:06.520 took me a little piece. We switched vehicles. They put 0:28:06.600 --> 0:28:08.959 us in another vehicle, and then they covered me up 0:28:09.000 --> 0:28:10.800 and we rode a little bit and then I just 0:28:10.920 --> 0:28:12.720 know they backed in somewhere that took me out and 0:28:13.200 --> 0:28:15.280 took me in a room and I saw him and 0:28:15.400 --> 0:28:19.840 some more people. There were other people, people who was 0:28:20.119 --> 0:28:24.359 capping that Mexico way just a damn minute, Like I 0:28:24.960 --> 0:28:26.520 must have missed that part they wanted them to have 0:28:26.680 --> 0:28:31.520 sex in the world. Yeah, definitely, Um, go watch the 0:28:31.720 --> 0:28:35.399 full interview. It I mean, it's it's really like just 0:28:35.600 --> 0:28:38.040 jaw dropping. And one of the things they talked about 0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:39.760 at the end of the interview is that the cartel 0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:42.400 said that there was nothing they could do to bring 0:28:42.480 --> 0:28:46.040 the two brothers back. The guy that that eventually released them, 0:28:46.160 --> 0:28:47.800 he told her, you know, hey, I know they're gonna 0:28:47.840 --> 0:28:50.239 kill me for releasing you, he said. But he did 0:28:50.320 --> 0:28:53.520 apologize that the wrong call was made, that the person 0:28:53.680 --> 0:28:56.680 was high and drunk and basically made the wrong call. 0:28:57.200 --> 0:28:59.600 They eventually dropped the survivors off at a wooden shack 0:28:59.640 --> 0:29:03.120 where they were rescued on Mark seven. And again, what 0:29:03.280 --> 0:29:06.760 they've done. The golf cartel has basically issued an apology 0:29:06.840 --> 0:29:10.360 for the incident and eventually handed over other five other 0:29:10.680 --> 0:29:13.280 members that they kidnapped to local authorities. So we have 0:29:13.440 --> 0:29:16.360 no idea why they're doing this. They said somebody was 0:29:16.480 --> 0:29:18.400 high and drunk and made the wrong call. Yeah, because 0:29:18.400 --> 0:29:20.800 at first they said that they thought they were Haitian 0:29:21.040 --> 0:29:23.640 smugglers and that was the wrong call. But you know, 0:29:23.760 --> 0:29:25.960 I have a question because when I was in Mexico, 0:29:26.000 --> 0:29:28.680 people were telling me that it was certain areas that 0:29:28.720 --> 0:29:30.640 in Mexico that they tell people don't go to, like 0:29:30.840 --> 0:29:32.720 you know, certain places of no matter where you go, 0:29:32.800 --> 0:29:34.760 they say, don't go in that area. It's not a 0:29:34.840 --> 0:29:37.000 tourist town. It's not friendly the tourists. So if you're 0:29:37.080 --> 0:29:39.520 in those areas, be very careful. Even when I go 0:29:39.560 --> 0:29:41.719 to Jamaica sometimes, you know, my wife is from Kingston. 0:29:42.000 --> 0:29:43.840 Like they even tell us like, don't go to certain 0:29:43.920 --> 0:29:47.120 parts because you know, it's it's not run by government, 0:29:47.160 --> 0:29:49.720 it's run by the local cartels, you know. But recently 0:29:49.760 --> 0:29:51.960 it seemed like, I mean, it's like a coo poco 0:29:52.160 --> 0:29:55.560 and tuloom, Like it's like all these shootings, people getting killed. 0:29:55.760 --> 0:29:58.200 I mean, like at the resort near the resort, I 0:29:58.240 --> 0:30:01.520 don't don't you can't pay me to Mexico. I wonder 0:30:01.560 --> 0:30:04.040 if this is any backlash to how they think some 0:30:04.200 --> 0:30:07.720 Americans may feel about Mexicans because of the rhetoric that 0:30:07.840 --> 0:30:10.480 comes from you know, Trump, Donald Trump's in the world. 0:30:10.840 --> 0:30:14.680 You think. I don't wanted to guess make an assumption, 0:30:14.880 --> 0:30:16.920 but I guess when we look at what's happening with 0:30:17.080 --> 0:30:21.320 Mexico in general, you know, uh, and not not pursuing 0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:24.760 justice or you know, if there is some type of 0:30:24.960 --> 0:30:26.640 you know, I don't want to make up a conspiracy, 0:30:26.720 --> 0:30:29.560 but I just think that Mexico was Mexico and they're 0:30:29.560 --> 0:30:31.160 going to handle their business as such. And I know, 0:30:31.360 --> 0:30:34.840 a be Scott, you wanted to talk about Mexico as well. Absolutely, 0:30:35.040 --> 0:30:36.920 and you know Whybably on the topic of Mexico, there 0:30:36.960 --> 0:30:40.120 has been an update on the Chicuela Robinson death. UM. 0:30:40.240 --> 0:30:43.880 The US federal prosecutors have decided not to pursue charges 0:30:44.160 --> 0:30:49.280 because they found insufficient evidence. Really yeah, yeah, yeah, And 0:30:49.320 --> 0:30:52.160 that's what's so disturbing. We literally saw this woman get 0:30:52.320 --> 0:30:56.600 murdered by her friends, UM and the Mexican you know officials. UM, 0:30:56.840 --> 0:31:00.480 when they performed the optopsy, they did see that she 0:31:00.600 --> 0:31:03.520 had a broken spine as well as other injuries. Mexico 0:31:03.840 --> 0:31:07.280 does want to extradite the person they feel is responsible 0:31:07.320 --> 0:31:10.200 for her death. There is no news as to how 0:31:10.280 --> 0:31:13.760 the US will respond to the extradition. Mexico wants to 0:31:13.840 --> 0:31:18.160 pursue what they call demiside charges against a friend. Demisides 0:31:18.200 --> 0:31:20.480 the crying to find his intentional murder of women because 0:31:20.560 --> 0:31:23.719 they are women. Yeah, but right now they're not doing anything. 0:31:23.880 --> 0:31:26.360 So to answer your question, Charlemagne, the US I talked 0:31:26.360 --> 0:31:28.920 to Attorney Crump just about five minutes ago, and he 0:31:29.000 --> 0:31:31.600 said they are demanding they're going to the White House. 0:31:32.000 --> 0:31:34.560 Shout out to until freedom, my sister, to make Mallory 0:31:34.600 --> 0:31:37.920 over there and they're demanding that the US does something. 0:31:38.040 --> 0:31:41.440 So to your point about is this backlash, Well, again, 0:31:41.560 --> 0:31:45.160 Mexico wants to arrest the murders of Miss Robinson. Why 0:31:45.360 --> 0:31:48.960 is the Biden administration? Are they going to extradite these 0:31:49.040 --> 0:31:51.520 individuals too, you know, so that they can receive justice. 0:31:51.560 --> 0:31:54.600 So I want to point that out that on March nineteenth, 0:31:54.640 --> 0:31:57.560 it will be two hundred days since Miss Robinson has 0:31:57.640 --> 0:32:00.760 been murdered. And again they have said that if things done, 0:32:01.280 --> 0:32:04.320 they'll be preparing to protest the White House. And I 0:32:04.400 --> 0:32:07.200 also think that it ties into how I guess feel 0:32:07.200 --> 0:32:10.640 like black lives are not valued as much as white 0:32:10.680 --> 0:32:13.040 lives because if there was a white woman they got 0:32:13.120 --> 0:32:16.000 murdered in Mexico, trust and believe there will be some 0:32:16.120 --> 0:32:18.240 type of justice for that. And I was gonna they 0:32:18.280 --> 0:32:20.640 totally dropped the ball. Does the US usually extradite to 0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:23.720 to other countries like that? Because you never really hear 0:32:23.760 --> 0:32:26.280 the US sending people out. You always hear people sending 0:32:26.440 --> 0:32:29.240 people back, but you never really hear US sending people out. 0:32:29.640 --> 0:32:33.320 Is that normal practice? Great? Great point, um DJ, because 0:32:33.320 --> 0:32:35.520 that's what a turning crout literally said this morning, said, 0:32:35.520 --> 0:32:37.800 they typically, you know, they don't. That's not something that 0:32:37.880 --> 0:32:41.120 they typically do. Um. But again, you know when we 0:32:41.360 --> 0:32:44.320 see something you know on tape, uh and we see that, 0:32:44.480 --> 0:32:47.360 you know, people the family is demanding justice and you 0:32:47.440 --> 0:32:50.000 know again and this goes into the culture of like 0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:52.680 will be Scott mentioned, you know, black lives and how 0:32:52.720 --> 0:32:55.080 do we prioritize things and if there was a white woman, 0:32:55.120 --> 0:32:57.200 would it you know, would they do something different? So 0:32:57.440 --> 0:33:00.440 it's it's a part of a larger conversation on trying 0:33:00.480 --> 0:33:03.320 to get some level of justice for black folks. So 0:33:03.400 --> 0:33:06.160 it's not something that is typically done, but it doesn't 0:33:06.160 --> 0:33:08.520 mean that it can't be something that that can't happen. 0:33:08.920 --> 0:33:11.160 Gotch damn Man, Well, thank you so much.

Welcome, brother, 0:34:10.520 --> 0:34:12.640 Thank you. How are you, sir? Good good? One of 0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:15.120 the legendary Hughes brothers, one of them. You're here, I 0:34:15.160 --> 0:34:17.680 mean you're here promoting the new FX series Dear Mama. Man, 0:34:17.760 --> 0:34:19.680 But you have such a long yeah, before we get 0:34:19.719 --> 0:34:24.439 to the beginning. How you got into this business being 0:34:24.520 --> 0:34:28.800 from Detroit, Midwest kids wanting to go to California, wanting 0:34:28.840 --> 0:34:30.400 to you know, I thought we thought we were going 0:34:30.480 --> 0:34:33.640 to be actors. These big noses and no talent didn't 0:34:33.640 --> 0:34:36.719 work out. Okay, you know in the eighties, remember when 0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:39.560 we have the home video boom. You go to the store, 0:34:40.040 --> 0:34:42.480 they'd had those cameras, and so we just started making movies. 0:34:42.520 --> 0:34:43.960 Or twelve, my mother was trying to keep us out 0:34:43.960 --> 0:34:47.160 of the streets, and we knew we just caught a bug. 0:34:47.239 --> 0:34:50.040 We took a camera at twelve and just start shooting movies. 0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:53.960 Not skate videos, not BMX videos, just start shooting movies. 0:34:54.000 --> 0:34:58.200 And that's how it started tea. We were doing spoofs, 0:34:58.280 --> 0:35:00.680 you know, like our favorite shows at the time where 0:35:01.280 --> 0:35:03.840 Leonard Nimoy is in search of We would do spoofs 0:35:03.880 --> 0:35:06.719 of that, the Johnny Carson Show, and then we would 0:35:06.719 --> 0:35:10.520 do a bunch of cocaine themed scarface type things, a 0:35:10.600 --> 0:35:14.560 lot of a lot of baking what is it called dope, 0:35:15.120 --> 0:35:16.719 getting a lot of dough on our nose is doing 0:35:16.760 --> 0:35:21.400 scarface scenes. But we eventually worked our way into around 0:35:21.480 --> 0:35:25.000 eighteen nineteen, got lucky enough to get some music videos, 0:35:25.040 --> 0:35:27.279 and one of our first music videos was for the 0:35:27.320 --> 0:35:30.480 spinoff group of Digital Underground, Raw Fusion with Money B 0:35:30.880 --> 0:35:33.400 and that's when we met Tupac and it was our 0:35:33.440 --> 0:35:36.000 first music video. Tupac was in our first music video. 0:35:36.440 --> 0:35:39.000 So we were fortunate enough that we dropped out of 0:35:39.080 --> 0:35:42.000 high school after a bunch of Burger king type jobs. 0:35:42.520 --> 0:35:44.359 Landed a couple of music videos. In the first one 0:35:44.480 --> 0:35:47.280 was a pretty much digital underground without the first connection 0:35:47.320 --> 0:35:51.600 with absolutely It was a waffle house in San Francisco 0:35:51.680 --> 0:35:53.120 where we had to go meet the group for the 0:35:53.160 --> 0:35:55.960 first time. He shot g everyone's there, and I remember 0:35:56.040 --> 0:35:57.640 being very taken with this kid at the end of 0:35:57.680 --> 0:36:00.720 the table that was unknown at the time. Just funnies, 0:36:01.000 --> 0:36:03.200 just the funniest guy. He was roasting everyone at the table. 0:36:03.760 --> 0:36:06.839 Went to the bathroom. He came in and he says, 0:36:06.880 --> 0:36:08.920 I'm gonna, I'm gonna. I saw you guys are short films. 0:36:08.920 --> 0:36:11.360 I'm gonna I'm gonna have my record label hire you 0:36:11.440 --> 0:36:13.920 to direct my music videos. I'm like, come on, you know. 0:36:14.520 --> 0:36:17.840 But the next day was our first music video shoot, 0:36:18.480 --> 0:36:21.760 our first professional job, and I just kept asking everyone 0:36:21.880 --> 0:36:24.520 wentz Tupac showing up, wins Tupac showing up because we 0:36:24.600 --> 0:36:27.000 did a little scene before the music video. It's called 0:36:27.040 --> 0:36:30.879 throw your hands in the air, and he showed up late. 0:36:31.040 --> 0:36:32.640 I waited for him and put him right in the 0:36:32.680 --> 0:36:34.719 middle of the scene and you'll see this music video. 0:36:34.800 --> 0:36:37.480 He's right in the middle of that scene. And that's 0:36:37.520 --> 0:36:39.960 how our relationship began and what would those he's like 0:36:40.080 --> 0:36:44.520 because you know, he became a dynamic actor. Y'all know, 0:36:44.600 --> 0:36:48.239 became dynamic film director. Did y'all have conversations about doing 0:36:48.320 --> 0:36:51.960 bigger things like movie even then? Yes, you know with Tupac, 0:36:52.000 --> 0:36:53.600 I think when I think back now, because I was 0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:57.800 forced to with this documseries, the level of intensity and 0:36:58.000 --> 0:37:01.640 passion was always like matched with me and my brother 0:37:01.719 --> 0:37:04.280 and him, and we were always talking about doing movies. 0:37:04.440 --> 0:37:06.080 We were talking about doing movies together. It wasn't just 0:37:06.200 --> 0:37:10.560 this music thing, but Tupac always kind of searching for 0:37:10.640 --> 0:37:13.840 that father figure. Um at one point got in with 0:37:14.080 --> 0:37:16.759 John Singleton, and I remember when he broke our hearts 0:37:16.840 --> 0:37:20.600 because he he says to us when we wanted him 0:37:20.600 --> 0:37:22.920 for minutes, he says, I won't I won't star in 0:37:23.000 --> 0:37:24.839 the movie, which we didn't want him to. It goes 0:37:24.960 --> 0:37:27.520 me and John have made a pact that our only 0:37:27.600 --> 0:37:29.640 starring John Singleton films. We're gonna be like Robert de 0:37:29.760 --> 0:37:32.960 Niro and scored Sacey. Wow. And but I saw what 0:37:33.080 --> 0:37:34.560 was happening with him because he always had that like 0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:37.080 looking for that big brother, and he made that connection 0:37:37.160 --> 0:37:40.960 with John, and I remember it hurt our hearts. Um, 0:37:41.920 --> 0:37:45.200 and because we had plans and that was that why 0:37:45.280 --> 0:37:47.600 y'all never made that pack. Yall should have yall should 0:37:47.600 --> 0:37:48.880 have made that back. I did John just get to 0:37:48.960 --> 0:37:51.640 it first? Its first. Well, you know, John was bigger 0:37:51.680 --> 0:37:53.480 at the time we had made a movie. John was 0:37:53.560 --> 0:37:56.640 coming off Boys in the Hood going into Poetic Justice 0:37:56.680 --> 0:37:58.840 with the second film. If I'm not mistaken, right, So 0:37:59.200 --> 0:38:02.280 you got Janet Action, you got John Singleton, Oscar nominated. 0:38:02.600 --> 0:38:04.360 We're just some guys that made some music videos. We 0:38:04.440 --> 0:38:06.759 hadn't made Minutes yet. I always wondered how much did 0:38:06.960 --> 0:38:09.840 Boys in the Hood inspire Minutes of Society, because in 0:38:09.920 --> 0:38:12.640 my mind I can't remember how the time difference between 0:38:12.680 --> 0:38:15.160 those movies, but it feels like they were just two 0:38:15.400 --> 0:38:18.840 similar type of stories didn't inspire it at all, except 0:38:18.880 --> 0:38:22.239 for one. In one regard. We had this idea since 0:38:22.280 --> 0:38:24.480 we were fifteen. So by time we were in nineteen 0:38:24.520 --> 0:38:26.600 and Boys was catching all this heat and this attention. 0:38:27.280 --> 0:38:29.799 We had gotten an early copy of it because they 0:38:30.000 --> 0:38:32.560 in music video days, you would get the film, and 0:38:33.400 --> 0:38:36.719 I remember being bummed because the marketing and Cube at 0:38:36.719 --> 0:38:39.080 the time, remember how massive Cube was. He just left 0:38:39.120 --> 0:38:42.840 in wa and it just seemed everything was perfect, you know, 0:38:43.280 --> 0:38:45.520 and I saw the film and I was like, oh, 0:38:45.560 --> 0:38:47.040 this is not what we want to do. This is 0:38:47.120 --> 0:38:50.319 more of a positive version, was way Gridia. Yeah, yeah, 0:38:50.600 --> 0:38:52.920 So it just made us double down on like, oh no, 0:38:53.000 --> 0:38:55.440 we gotta be more gangster with ours. And then we 0:38:55.520 --> 0:38:58.719 saw a film called American Me you've seen American We 0:38:58.880 --> 0:39:02.120 rewrote Menace. He saw that rerewrote Menace Like that changed 0:39:02.200 --> 0:39:04.239 everything for us. What part was part supposed to play 0:39:04.280 --> 0:39:06.400 in Menister? He was supposed to play Sharif the Muslim, 0:39:06.560 --> 0:39:10.720 the Muslim Muslim brother and you know they're in the problem. 0:39:11.000 --> 0:39:12.399 He didn't want to be the Muslim brother. He wanted 0:39:12.400 --> 0:39:15.440 to be old. You know. What's what's interesting is by 0:39:15.520 --> 0:39:17.680 the time, let me back up a second, and a 0:39:17.760 --> 0:39:19.799 Muslim brother had a big partner in Menister. He did. 0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:22.400 It wasn't a small part. I back up a second. 0:39:23.040 --> 0:39:25.120 When we were doing music videos with Tupac and I 0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:28.839 think our relationship, our friendship, our intense friendship, lasted maybe 0:39:29.000 --> 0:39:31.120 nine months. One day I picked him up at the 0:39:31.160 --> 0:39:34.400 Birdbank Airport, him and his brother Mopreme, and we went 0:39:34.440 --> 0:39:37.759 to the Paramount lot and it was the first time 0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:41.080 he saw Juice And I never even knew about Juice, 0:39:41.719 --> 0:39:44.440 and I just remember he had like one or two 0:39:44.520 --> 0:39:46.640 tattoos at the time. He didn't, he wasn't tatted up, 0:39:46.640 --> 0:39:49.759 he wasn't whatever. I remember, everything changed after he saw Juice, 0:39:49.880 --> 0:39:52.040 after he saw himself in Juice. A lot of people 0:39:52.120 --> 0:39:54.359 saying that he say after he changed after he played Juice, 0:39:54.640 --> 0:39:56.920 after he saw himself in Juice. I saw it when 0:39:56.960 --> 0:39:58.959 he saw it. What I didn't know at the time 0:39:59.160 --> 0:40:01.160 was he was was aware of what the critics were 0:40:01.200 --> 0:40:03.279 saying about him, because you get the early reviews, so 0:40:03.360 --> 0:40:06.319 he knew going in that this was well reviewed for him. 0:40:06.880 --> 0:40:11.759 But I saw a change. He saw script, he saw 0:40:11.800 --> 0:40:14.600 a thing happening. Because I always say Tupac signed his 0:40:14.760 --> 0:40:18.560 record deal three years too late. If you think about 0:40:18.600 --> 0:40:23.240 what he represented as far as like social justice, black power, 0:40:23.440 --> 0:40:26.279 all that stuff, that was eighty eight. That's eighty seven. 0:40:26.840 --> 0:40:29.600 He signed his dealing ninety one, you know, for life 0:40:29.640 --> 0:40:32.920 albums at the top of the charts, And I think 0:40:32.960 --> 0:40:36.160 it he was always struggling with like, damn, this is 0:40:36.239 --> 0:40:39.400 what's hot now. It's not who I am but this 0:40:39.520 --> 0:40:42.400 gangster now. And I saw that struggle in him. But 0:40:42.440 --> 0:40:45.520 when he saw Juice, just you can see it in 0:40:45.680 --> 0:40:48.680 his actions after that leg I can't claim that, you know, 0:40:48.920 --> 0:40:51.080 when you look at his death row Era and you 0:40:51.160 --> 0:40:54.160 look at that persona, you you know some of that 0:40:54.280 --> 0:40:56.000 must have been in him, because like with any great 0:40:56.040 --> 0:40:58.480 performer or any great actor, you can't you can't play 0:40:58.560 --> 0:41:01.239 something that's not something that in you, you know. But 0:41:01.640 --> 0:41:05.200 I think Tupac was a true artist. I'm talking about 0:41:05.200 --> 0:41:08.760 like empathic too, and sensitive and can take in anything 0:41:08.840 --> 0:41:11.680 and become anything. Um And I think unfortunately he got 0:41:11.760 --> 0:41:15.560 cut down in the progression of becoming a man early, 0:41:15.840 --> 0:41:18.200 you know, at twenty five. How if any of us 0:41:18.280 --> 0:41:20.719 got removed from this earth at twenty five, I mean, 0:41:20.880 --> 0:41:24.479 what a shame because we're not fully formed yet seeing 0:41:24.520 --> 0:41:27.200 full frontal cortex, don't even developed a twenty five I 0:41:27.239 --> 0:41:28.880 want to talk about the pox stuff. But you literally 0:41:28.920 --> 0:41:30.359 made like three of my favorite movies of all time. 0:41:30.400 --> 0:41:33.000 But I think about that end scene of minutes when 0:41:33.000 --> 0:41:37.000 you hear Kine's heartbeating, you know, and he's questioning himself, 0:41:37.120 --> 0:41:39.680 like I can only imagine that's probably how it is 0:41:39.719 --> 0:41:43.279 when you're dying from gunshot. You're like, damn, I wish 0:41:43.280 --> 0:41:44.759 I would have made another choice. But I guess now 0:41:44.960 --> 0:41:47.040 is it's too late. Like that ain't make me want 0:41:47.040 --> 0:41:50.200 to thug out. And they say, you know, when I 0:41:50.280 --> 0:41:54.719 was studying for Dead Presidents, call you call out for 0:41:54.800 --> 0:41:57.120 your mama. That's the number one thing you call out 0:41:57.160 --> 0:41:59.480 for when you're when you're dying in Vietnam, that was 0:41:59.520 --> 0:42:02.480 a number one thing. And they say, Tupac, the first 0:42:02.520 --> 0:42:04.399 thing he said when he got shot was he called 0:42:04.440 --> 0:42:06.920 out for his mother. Wow. And you know that's where 0:42:07.040 --> 0:42:08.600 I think you do go there? All right, well we 0:42:08.680 --> 0:42:10.520 come back. We got more with Alan Hughes, whom the 0:42:10.600 --> 0:42:13.800 Hughes brothers, you know him, the director. He directed Minister Society, 0:42:13.960 --> 0:42:16.719 Book of Eli and now Dear Mama. So we'll talk 0:42:16.719 --> 0:42:18.520 to him some mores to Breakfast Club the morning morning 0:42:18.560 --> 0:42:21.680 everybody is dj n V. Charlemagne the guy we are 0:42:21.760 --> 0:42:24.600 the Breakfast Club. B Scott, our co host is here 0:42:24.880 --> 0:42:27.239 and we're still kicking it with Alan Hughes. Now you 0:42:27.280 --> 0:42:30.360 know Alan Hughes, he's a director. He's directed Minister Society, 0:42:30.480 --> 0:42:34.120 he's directed Book of Eli, and now he's doing Dear Mama, 0:42:34.200 --> 0:42:37.800 the Tupac docuseries. Did you know when you started casting 0:42:37.920 --> 0:42:40.920 for Minister Society? We're gonna talk about everything. But did 0:42:40.960 --> 0:42:43.040 you know Lorenz Tape was the perfect person for that. 0:42:43.600 --> 0:42:46.680 That's a funny story about Lorenz Tape because we wrote 0:42:46.760 --> 0:42:50.759 that role for Easy. Easy was my first real og 0:42:50.960 --> 0:42:54.040 mentor in the business, right when Drey right the summer 0:42:54.120 --> 0:42:57.200 Dre left ninety one. That's a long story. So we 0:42:57.840 --> 0:43:01.160 got time. You gotta time, We got time. You know, 0:43:01.320 --> 0:43:05.520 Easy Easy, I learned. I learned everything from Easy. But 0:43:06.360 --> 0:43:07.680 one of the things with him and Jerry is they 0:43:07.719 --> 0:43:09.520 were always trying to keep you in the box and 0:43:09.640 --> 0:43:12.320 control you, you know, and and they were trying to 0:43:12.360 --> 0:43:14.839 control us in the script, and and I just had 0:43:14.880 --> 0:43:16.920 to move on, you know. And it was for peanuts. 0:43:17.400 --> 0:43:19.880 And I adore Easy. He was so giving and so 0:43:20.080 --> 0:43:22.200 down to earth and by the way, great with his 0:43:22.320 --> 0:43:24.960 fans too, like very patient with his fans. But I 0:43:25.040 --> 0:43:27.200 see why Q left, I see why Drey left. That 0:43:27.560 --> 0:43:29.640 there was a thing there. There was a whole thing there. 0:43:30.560 --> 0:43:33.719 So we eventually moved on with Menace. And as we 0:43:33.800 --> 0:43:37.160 were casting, we had been through two hundred old dogs. 0:43:37.400 --> 0:43:39.520 They brought us in the list that were the throwaways. 0:43:40.040 --> 0:43:43.560 That's when Lorenz they were like, you're not gonna this 0:43:43.760 --> 0:43:46.440 is not this is not what you're looking for. Once 0:43:46.520 --> 0:43:49.000 I yelled action, he went right into what you saw 0:43:49.120 --> 0:43:51.480 in the movie. Wow, I was like whoa, And I 0:43:51.640 --> 0:43:54.320 just got giddy, you know, and and and they were like, 0:43:54.360 --> 0:43:55.719 don't you can't tell him he was there with his 0:43:55.760 --> 0:43:58.120 brothers because he was under age. I ran out to 0:43:58.120 --> 0:44:00.439 the elevator, got an elevator with him. Just you knew. 0:44:00.560 --> 0:44:03.840 You knew right away because the thing I learned with Lorenz, 0:44:04.000 --> 0:44:05.800 and I try to keep this in mind in my 0:44:05.920 --> 0:44:07.960 career is like, don't get trapped in like what you 0:44:08.080 --> 0:44:10.080 think the role is the way it's supposed to look, 0:44:10.680 --> 0:44:13.640 you know, expect the unexpecting. And that's that kid was 0:44:14.040 --> 0:44:18.400 blew us away. Did old dog die in minutes? Man? What? What? No? Okay? 0:44:18.440 --> 0:44:20.560 So he went to prison? Like, yeah, he went to prison. Okay, 0:44:20.760 --> 0:44:22.440 why didnt y'all show that? I mean, they showed him 0:44:22.440 --> 0:44:26.359 getting arrested, but always opened into thing kind we were 0:44:26.440 --> 0:44:32.000 young and didn't know we were doing Charlotte Magne. You're right, 0:44:32.160 --> 0:44:34.000 like there's like things that and it was like two 0:44:34.080 --> 0:44:36.080 and a half million dollars budget. It was a time. 0:44:36.120 --> 0:44:37.840 We barely got that shot where he got put in 0:44:37.880 --> 0:44:40.080 a cop card. Now we were just young and dumb 0:44:40.160 --> 0:44:42.120 and lucky. And even with that, I thought I didn't 0:44:42.120 --> 0:44:43.760 know if that was a flashback or he was getting 0:44:43.840 --> 0:44:47.240 arrested for the murders. That was the night of the shooting, 0:44:47.760 --> 0:44:49.640 and there was a whole scene with Jada crying on 0:44:49.680 --> 0:44:51.520 the porch and all kinds of things that we just 0:44:51.560 --> 0:44:53.800 cut out of the movie came being put into the 0:44:54.320 --> 0:44:57.560 ambulance that all got cut out. Uh No, they wanted 0:44:57.560 --> 0:44:59.879 to do a sequel at one point, like fifteen years ago, 0:45:00.000 --> 0:45:01.839 ten years ago, and old Dog was gonna get out 0:45:01.840 --> 0:45:05.240 of prison because he was he was a juvenile. Yep, Wow, 0:45:05.360 --> 0:45:07.839 what would that? Did you even entertain that? Did you even? 0:45:08.000 --> 0:45:10.040 I didn't think I was entertaining it? And then we 0:45:10.160 --> 0:45:13.000 ended up in new lines offices and like entertaining it, 0:45:13.200 --> 0:45:15.600 and yeah, but I never really wanted to do it. Yeah, 0:45:15.640 --> 0:45:17.319 I never because I'm like, how do you just want 0:45:17.400 --> 0:45:20.120 to leave that classic? Yeah? When y'all did those lines, 0:45:20.280 --> 0:45:23.720 did you ever expect those lines to continue on forever? Like? Wait, 0:45:23.760 --> 0:45:25.520 when you hear lines like you know, you know you 0:45:25.600 --> 0:45:28.080 know now, or you know the lines I feel sorry 0:45:28.120 --> 0:45:30.000 for your mother or all those things, did y'all know 0:45:30.120 --> 0:45:32.399 how far that was gonna go and how how much 0:45:32.440 --> 0:45:33.960 impact I was gonna have on the coach it to 0:45:34.080 --> 0:45:36.920 this damn hell No. No, there's not one line in 0:45:37.120 --> 0:45:40.359 any movie of those movies that I felt that way 0:45:40.400 --> 0:45:43.839 for except for and I still didn't think this. Uh, 0:45:44.080 --> 0:45:47.560 there's that line break yourself. When the guys break yourself. Yeah, 0:45:47.840 --> 0:45:51.000 I remember me my brother were driving down Sunset Boulevard 0:45:51.239 --> 0:45:53.719 and LaBrea. We stopped at the light they called it 0:45:53.800 --> 0:45:56.759 HollyHood back then because it was so cracked out. I 0:45:56.880 --> 0:46:01.880 saw a dude slapping a dude's down to his legs, 0:46:02.000 --> 0:46:04.320 gonna break yourself, right, we're just right there. That's the 0:46:04.360 --> 0:46:06.279 first time I ever heard that, And I knew if 0:46:06.320 --> 0:46:08.560 that stuck out to me, he's slapping them like turning 0:46:08.640 --> 0:46:10.879 his pockets inside, telling them break himself. I've never heard 0:46:10.960 --> 0:46:13.960 that before, so I thought there was something to that, 0:46:14.120 --> 0:46:16.640 But no, there's no there was no line ever. Those 0:46:16.640 --> 0:46:18.560 are all, by the way, a lot of those lines 0:46:18.600 --> 0:46:21.200 of menace and in Dead Presidents were all improvised. Most 0:46:21.200 --> 0:46:23.480 of them were improvised. And Dead President was based off 0:46:23.640 --> 0:46:26.000 the trauma and black veterans feel when they come home 0:46:26.040 --> 0:46:29.840 from the military. Right, what what inspired that? There was 0:46:29.840 --> 0:46:33.799 a book called Bloods that was several stories of black 0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:36.680 Vietnam veterans, you know, and they read these stories can 0:46:36.760 --> 0:46:39.440 to see what black veterans had to come home too. 0:46:39.600 --> 0:46:42.439 There's a different type of trauma fighting that were most 0:46:42.480 --> 0:46:45.400 of the disproportionately losing their lives as a black community, 0:46:45.560 --> 0:46:47.919 you know. And I think we were a little again 0:46:48.080 --> 0:46:50.160 too young and too ambitious. And if you look at 0:46:50.200 --> 0:46:53.160 the movie, it's three different movies, it's a it all 0:46:53.239 --> 0:46:55.920 made sense though, Like I remember being young. When you're young, 0:46:55.960 --> 0:46:57.719 you think that's just the bankits movie, right, like, oh, 0:46:57.760 --> 0:47:00.160 it's exciting, you see the white faith with very it 0:47:00.280 --> 0:47:02.080 does now for Halloween. But then you get older, you 0:47:02.080 --> 0:47:05.360 start to peel back those layers of Oh, man, okay, 0:47:05.719 --> 0:47:10.560 he was in the military, came home PTSD, broke girl 0:47:10.680 --> 0:47:12.840 cheating on him because he's gonna be angry, you know 0:47:12.880 --> 0:47:14.719 what I mean, because he want to, you know, figure 0:47:14.760 --> 0:47:16.279 out a way to get some money. So it's just 0:47:16.520 --> 0:47:18.040 a lot of other different things you see as you 0:47:18.120 --> 0:47:21.040 get older. Yeah, I think I think the writing could 0:47:21.040 --> 0:47:24.040 have been better, you know, Like he makes the decision 0:47:24.080 --> 0:47:26.799 to do the heist, but he hadn't gotten done enough. 0:47:26.880 --> 0:47:29.719 I thought you know, it's finding jobs and you know, 0:47:29.840 --> 0:47:32.160 like the beats that I know now in storytelling, like 0:47:32.160 --> 0:47:34.399 you gotta go through a few more beats to earn 0:47:34.480 --> 0:47:37.040 the right to be shooting all those cops. And now 0:47:37.080 --> 0:47:43.320 you're being too hard on yourself. And I was peoples 0:47:43.680 --> 0:47:45.960 and he was sleeping with his girls all that one alone. Yeah, 0:47:45.960 --> 0:47:48.560 you're right, he sat alone. Girl didn't beat his ass. Yeah, 0:47:49.239 --> 0:47:51.719 put the gun in his mouth. You know what sucking gun? 0:47:51.840 --> 0:47:55.040 Denzel Washington taught me something. You put that gun, you 0:47:55.120 --> 0:47:59.439 know like Lorenz did, uh say Cutty did to Lorenz character. 0:48:00.000 --> 0:48:03.120 I guess mistake of dead presidents was before he went down, 0:48:03.320 --> 0:48:06.239 he should have went back and served that guy. And 0:48:06.360 --> 0:48:08.160 you got to give that to the audience. You can't 0:48:08.200 --> 0:48:11.520 have your hero get get done like that and not 0:48:11.719 --> 0:48:14.960 get some form of justice. Even if he's gonna go 0:48:15.000 --> 0:48:17.120 to prison, there's got to be some get back for 0:48:17.239 --> 0:48:19.719 the audience, the audiences. That was a tough watch for 0:48:19.760 --> 0:48:22.120 the audience at the time to see Lorenz his character 0:48:22.239 --> 0:48:25.800 put in that position, um by that pimp ish character 0:48:26.320 --> 0:48:28.600 and he never got us. You know, he never got 0:48:28.680 --> 0:48:30.880 to get back. Now were you were you in poking 0:48:31.080 --> 0:48:32.600 good terms? When he passed because I know you had 0:48:32.640 --> 0:48:37.879 a krafuffle one day. Um no, it kind of that's 0:48:37.880 --> 0:48:41.000 a that's a strange because he did apologize, um to 0:48:41.160 --> 0:48:42.840 what happened for people I don't know this, you know, 0:48:43.040 --> 0:48:44.960 Oh my god, this is the people I don't know. 0:48:45.320 --> 0:48:48.120 I didn't sleep enough to tell this story. Um well, 0:48:48.160 --> 0:48:50.359 he we eventually had to fire him for menace because 0:48:50.360 --> 0:48:52.920 it was just he was just becoming a handful and 0:48:53.400 --> 0:48:56.239 and um, I could tell it was just there was 0:48:56.320 --> 0:48:59.400 no way for us to It was starting before minutes, 0:49:00.200 --> 0:49:02.440 and I tried to work it out with him, but 0:49:02.640 --> 0:49:06.080 he just, in my opinion, wasn't being reasonable. And I'm 0:49:06.120 --> 0:49:08.960 sure he would say the same of me. And this 0:49:09.120 --> 0:49:13.680 is between me Tupac who had that conversation? Who walks 0:49:13.680 --> 0:49:16.279 in that trailer? It was in pre production, so we 0:49:16.360 --> 0:49:20.440 were rehearsals where we had to several little blowouts. And 0:49:20.520 --> 0:49:22.799 then I called him later that night. Well, he told 0:49:22.800 --> 0:49:24.720 me to call his manager. I call his manager's managers, 0:49:24.719 --> 0:49:26.840 like what Tupac? This Tupac let me talk to Tupac 0:49:27.200 --> 0:49:29.960 called Tupac goes, I'm not talking to you, talk to 0:49:30.040 --> 0:49:32.840 my manager. I said, you know, like like there's no 0:49:32.960 --> 0:49:35.440 way this is we can't do this. Tupac Like, if 0:49:35.440 --> 0:49:37.279 I can't talk to you, and I'm gonna have to 0:49:37.360 --> 0:49:39.520 let you go, you know, talk to my manager. So 0:49:40.239 --> 0:49:42.040 next day I went to New Line Cinema and I said, 0:49:42.040 --> 0:49:44.480 we gotta let him go. Oh you didn't want to fire, No, 0:49:44.640 --> 0:49:46.520 you wanted to work. No, I wanted to work it out. Yeah, 0:49:46.920 --> 0:49:48.920 And he was making a lot of money. And by 0:49:48.960 --> 0:49:51.360 the way, to Tupac's credit, he was one of the 0:49:51.400 --> 0:49:53.480 reasons why the movie got greenlight, because they went in 0:49:53.560 --> 0:49:56.000 green light unless we had someone a note or a 0:49:56.080 --> 0:49:59.160 platinum artist in the film. In Tupac as a friend 0:50:00.000 --> 0:50:02.480 find on early and helped us with that film, you know. 0:50:03.200 --> 0:50:06.040 And I remember the termination letter, and that's what happened. 0:50:06.280 --> 0:50:10.080 He got terminated, and there was rumors that Tupac was 0:50:10.120 --> 0:50:12.439 looking for us. And I'm not gonna make this about 0:50:12.520 --> 0:50:14.400 my brother, because this is the decision I made. I 0:50:14.520 --> 0:50:17.360 dealt with the actors. Albert was out there scouting locations 0:50:17.400 --> 0:50:20.400 when this happened, you know. But anyway, we pulled up 0:50:20.400 --> 0:50:24.240 in the Spice one music video for the soundtrack Trigger 0:50:24.320 --> 0:50:26.640 has No Heart, Got No Heart? I can't remember the title, 0:50:27.120 --> 0:50:29.800 and I saw Tupac sitting there with ten gangsters already 0:50:29.840 --> 0:50:32.160 liquored up, and so he knew what it was. Yea 0:50:32.440 --> 0:50:34.920 and that, and that's what happened. I'll just make this 0:50:35.160 --> 0:50:37.040 story short, because he got it, got bloody, he got 0:50:37.080 --> 0:50:41.239 brutal on me, and I just remember going, damn, I 0:50:41.239 --> 0:50:44.480 don't feel anything. I was amazed by what the adrenaline does. 0:50:45.360 --> 0:50:47.040 And I had to go to the hospital. Was that bad? 0:50:47.120 --> 0:50:50.759 You know? So there was a mutual friend, mutual friends. 0:50:50.760 --> 0:50:52.200 I'm like, just tell them to meet me in the park. 0:50:52.440 --> 0:50:54.040 You know. I was like, meet me in the park, man, 0:50:54.440 --> 0:50:57.359 I'm not threatening you. You know, let's resolve with his men, 0:50:57.920 --> 0:51:01.520 just one on one. And I just kept getting um rejected. 0:51:01.719 --> 0:51:03.000 I said, all right. So that's when I took it 0:51:03.040 --> 0:51:05.640 to court and I had a real attorney, and I'm 0:51:05.840 --> 0:51:08.160 in the preliminary stage. I go, you know what pulled 0:51:08.200 --> 0:51:11.680 the MTV that moment you're talking mountain where he's threatening 0:51:11.719 --> 0:51:13.960 and re threatening and confess. He confessed to it, yep, 0:51:14.120 --> 0:51:16.279 and yeah, and say you're gonna do it again. Yeah, 0:51:16.320 --> 0:51:18.120 when I catch him, the traveler said, pull the tape. 0:51:18.160 --> 0:51:21.439 Let's show that to the jury. Beat up the side, 0:51:21.560 --> 0:51:23.640 let me tell the whole world. Check this out. They 0:51:23.719 --> 0:51:26.279 fired me, but did it in a roundabout, punk snitch way. 0:51:26.480 --> 0:51:28.880 So I caught him on the streets and beat date behind. 0:51:29.080 --> 0:51:33.200 Do you know what I'm saying. I can't. I still 0:51:33.239 --> 0:51:40.560 got when they showed that tape to the jury. You 0:51:40.600 --> 0:51:43.120 should have saw their faces. That's what won the case. Well, 0:51:43.160 --> 0:51:45.000 don't move. We got more with Alan Hughes. When we 0:51:45.080 --> 0:51:49.200 come back. It's the Breakfast logan Morning. Everybody's dj n V. Charlemagne, 0:51:49.239 --> 0:51:51.520 the guy we are the Breakfast Club be Scott, our 0:51:51.600 --> 0:51:53.880 co host is here and we're still kicking it with 0:51:54.000 --> 0:51:56.680 Alan Hughes. Now you know Alan Hughes. He's a director. 0:51:56.760 --> 0:52:00.480 He's directed Minister Society, He's directed Book of Eli, and 0:52:00.640 --> 0:52:04.279 now he's doing Dear Mama, the Tupac VACU series. Charlemagne, 0:52:04.440 --> 0:52:08.120 I think some people are concerned that you might try 0:52:08.120 --> 0:52:11.279 to paint Pocket in a negative light because of that 0:52:11.440 --> 0:52:14.560 situation with Dema. I remember they first announced it. I 0:52:14.640 --> 0:52:17.880 saw people that are close to POC online saying like, no, 0:52:18.320 --> 0:52:20.560 why is he doing Dear Mama? Like what story is 0:52:20.600 --> 0:52:23.040 he going to tell? What kind of chess would I 0:52:23.160 --> 0:52:26.480 be on to? First of all, not be proud of 0:52:27.120 --> 0:52:30.520 like the icon he's become, and why would I want 0:52:30.560 --> 0:52:33.040 to If anything, the reason why I took the job 0:52:33.120 --> 0:52:35.840 was I want to understand him more. You go around 0:52:35.880 --> 0:52:40.560 the world Africa, South America, Asia, Europe. You see that mural, 0:52:40.640 --> 0:52:42.719 you see you don't see anyone around the world like that. 0:52:43.400 --> 0:52:45.600 I don't give cool. It is like you don't see 0:52:45.680 --> 0:52:48.040 him in Africa like you see Tupac. And I always 0:52:48.080 --> 0:52:49.959 looked when I was traveling, like, oh man, I wonder 0:52:50.200 --> 0:52:55.240 he's the strange paradoxyl I can use that word twentieth 0:52:55.280 --> 0:52:57.440 century figure that you can project anything you want to 0:52:58.320 --> 0:53:02.760 love or fighter saying center hoh it, philosopher, violence, whatever 0:53:02.800 --> 0:53:04.480 you want to see, you'll see in Tupac. You know, 0:53:04.520 --> 0:53:06.719 I've noticed that a bomb. He's almost biblical in that way. 0:53:07.400 --> 0:53:10.000 I say too, like tupacts on like your grandma has 0:53:10.200 --> 0:53:13.440 m ok JFK and Jesus over there Tupos on that 0:53:13.560 --> 0:53:16.200 other wall. So you gotta be real mindful when you're 0:53:16.719 --> 0:53:18.840 dealing with something like that. Break down, break down what 0:53:18.920 --> 0:53:20.080 it is for people that don't know, is it a 0:53:20.120 --> 0:53:22.560 mini series? Is a document series? Is it weekly? So 0:53:22.680 --> 0:53:25.160 for people that don't know, it's a documenteries. Five parts 0:53:25.440 --> 0:53:28.680 and it's the first week April twenty first it drops 0:53:28.760 --> 0:53:32.319 on FX, the first two episodes come out that night, 0:53:32.400 --> 0:53:35.080 and then the next day and Hulu streaming, and then 0:53:35.120 --> 0:53:37.040 a week the week. How hard is it to gather 0:53:37.160 --> 0:53:38.880 all of these different stories together the film, because it's 0:53:38.880 --> 0:53:41.399 not just Pockets as mother as well, right, So yeah, 0:53:41.520 --> 0:53:44.560 how hard to gather these stories? It's very difficult because 0:53:44.600 --> 0:53:47.640 it's like with on the Affany side, there was virtually nothing, 0:53:48.120 --> 0:53:52.000 no footage, very little pictures, and she's got a rich history, 0:53:52.560 --> 0:53:55.480 especially obviously her Panther years and what she was on 0:53:55.600 --> 0:53:58.080 trial for with the Panther twenty one. They were facing 0:53:58.120 --> 0:54:01.200 three hundred and sixty years for allegedly trying to bomb 0:54:01.239 --> 0:54:03.200 all kinds of things in New York and a Faney 0:54:03.280 --> 0:54:06.279 represented herself, which is bold to say the least. So 0:54:06.560 --> 0:54:09.759 it's it's it's very hard to difficult to go back, 0:54:09.800 --> 0:54:12.080 and you know, you have to do it like an excavation. 0:54:12.160 --> 0:54:14.520 You're trying to find things. But we fortunately found a 0:54:14.560 --> 0:54:17.560 lot of footage, not a lot enough on her and 0:54:17.719 --> 0:54:21.120 enough photos that hadn't been seen, enough stuff with Tupac 0:54:21.280 --> 0:54:23.480 that hadn't been seen. And the one thing that was 0:54:23.560 --> 0:54:26.800 odd was there was no footage of them together, of 0:54:26.920 --> 0:54:29.440 him and his mother together, none, not even as a 0:54:29.520 --> 0:54:33.279 young boy. No footage there may have been. There's five 0:54:33.400 --> 0:54:35.920 pictures of the two of them. Five do you know 0:54:36.000 --> 0:54:37.680 why did they ever say? Why did you get an 0:54:37.719 --> 0:54:40.520 understanding of why? Just that odd LaToya and Michael thing? 0:54:40.600 --> 0:54:43.000 Maybe I don't know there was so I would go 0:54:43.080 --> 0:54:45.000 back to the music videos for other reasons. I would 0:54:45.000 --> 0:54:47.080 get the outtakes. I always do that. Let's get the outtakes. 0:54:47.120 --> 0:54:49.120 Let's find the moment before the moment, the moment after 0:54:49.160 --> 0:54:51.799 the moment. And I found and I get around video 0:54:53.239 --> 0:54:55.880 a lunch break that they shot a barbecue and there 0:54:55.920 --> 0:54:58.560 he is sitting when his mother eating barbecue. And it's 0:54:58.560 --> 0:55:01.520 in the Film's only like fifteen seconds, but it's the 0:55:01.560 --> 0:55:03.120 only time you see them too together. I got a 0:55:03.160 --> 0:55:05.320 couple more question exactly, you gotta go, what's going on 0:55:05.320 --> 0:55:09.640 with to Marvin gay biopick, that happens. We'll see, let's see, 0:55:09.760 --> 0:55:13.719 we'll see doctor dre and do let's see, we'll see. 0:55:13.719 --> 0:55:16.600 It's it's, it's, it's it's a little more complicated. We 0:55:16.680 --> 0:55:19.040 got the script. It's a great script, but a funny 0:55:19.040 --> 0:55:20.799 little thing happened on the way to the bank. Uh. 0:55:21.080 --> 0:55:23.040 Snoop Dog came to me to do it with his 0:55:23.120 --> 0:55:26.279 BIOPICCK and that, and that's being fast tracked right now. 0:55:26.400 --> 0:55:28.320 Marvin is ready, but there's some elements that need to 0:55:28.360 --> 0:55:31.200 get in place. That's one of the ones. You can't 0:55:31.960 --> 0:55:35.520 know what's love got to do with it, Like you know, 0:55:35.800 --> 0:55:37.840 part of the part of the challenge for me was 0:55:38.120 --> 0:55:40.080 when Snoop came to me with his biopic and I 0:55:40.120 --> 0:55:42.799 saw that universal was that enthusiastic about getting it done 0:55:42.920 --> 0:55:44.719 right now, and I saw that I could tell an 0:55:44.760 --> 0:55:46.640 inspiring story, but go back to the hood. I go, 0:55:46.719 --> 0:55:48.880 you know what, this is probably smarter for me to 0:55:48.960 --> 0:55:51.520 do first because there's something I'm familiar with, the music, 0:55:51.880 --> 0:55:55.600 the culture. Let me do this first, and and not 0:55:55.800 --> 0:55:59.080 just jumping into Marvin. You know, um, you got a 0:55:59.120 --> 0:56:02.400 thread a needle and you know that I think was 0:56:02.520 --> 0:56:05.560 Snoop in his story. It's more innate to me. And 0:56:05.680 --> 0:56:07.239 I'm like, let me get those reps in, let me 0:56:07.320 --> 0:56:09.480 get this out right now, because Marvin is like a 0:56:09.600 --> 0:56:11.600 whole nother ball game. You have talent attest to it. 0:56:11.680 --> 0:56:14.080 Y'all know who's gonna play Marvin h no Okay, no, 0:56:14.200 --> 0:56:17.080 we we think we know, and but you know, and 0:56:17.200 --> 0:56:20.400 I prefer being unknown Marvin. And how much of the 0:56:20.440 --> 0:56:23.759 snooper y'all done? How much of it? Yeah? Script is 0:56:24.200 --> 0:56:26.319 in this month and we're meant to be shooting at 0:56:26.320 --> 0:56:28.200 the end of the summer. That movie gotta be minutes 0:56:28.280 --> 0:56:32.640 to society Boys in the Hood type. But it starts 0:56:32.719 --> 0:56:34.960 that way. Okay, it starts that with stupid dupe was 0:56:35.000 --> 0:56:36.880 because remember everything, he goes through the death Row and 0:56:36.960 --> 0:56:39.320 then he buys it back and owns it, which is 0:56:40.239 --> 0:56:41.759 I want to go back to the ninety but you 0:56:41.800 --> 0:56:43.839 gotta do all that. But murder was the caase that's 0:56:43.920 --> 0:56:46.239 what you want to go back to us crack dealing. 0:56:47.320 --> 0:56:49.560 But it has to end with him buying the catalog 0:56:49.640 --> 0:56:51.759 and owning Death Row. You know what's funny you said 0:56:51.760 --> 0:56:54.359 that I hadn't thought about that. Yeah, him and him name, 0:56:54.440 --> 0:56:56.439 not having his masters and all that, and then coming 0:56:56.440 --> 0:56:59.920 back to him owning it, you know what snoop recently, 0:57:00.239 --> 0:57:01.560 I don't know, I don't know if I'm out in 0:57:01.640 --> 0:57:04.359 this right now, but you know, listen, I adore this guy, 0:57:04.480 --> 0:57:07.759 like this dude is so special, so grounded, such a 0:57:07.840 --> 0:57:10.160 great listener, such a great I mean, he's a sage. 0:57:10.840 --> 0:57:13.959 He gave doctor Dre the Chronic bank. Oh, I didn't 0:57:13.960 --> 0:57:15.960 know that. I don't know that he bought the whole 0:57:16.080 --> 0:57:19.880 death Row, gave Dre the chronic, gave it to him. 0:57:20.000 --> 0:57:22.840 I said, Snoop, who does that? Michael Jackson, who do 0:57:22.920 --> 0:57:24.760 you do that with? You know, Michael had got the 0:57:24.880 --> 0:57:27.320 Sony the half of Sony Publishing because he had to 0:57:27.320 --> 0:57:29.200 beat those catalogs. It was Sony ATV. And I think 0:57:29.200 --> 0:57:31.200 he gave him back the little Richard if I'm not mistaken. 0:57:31.280 --> 0:57:33.920 Oh okay, I hadn't heard that. He definitely get Paul back. 0:57:33.960 --> 0:57:39.680 He did mostly black. I definitely know it was a 0:57:39.680 --> 0:57:42.480 little Richard. I forgot when Snoop did Death though. I 0:57:42.600 --> 0:57:46.120 was like, wow, wow, you gave it to him. Um, 0:57:46.400 --> 0:57:48.120 how come it seems like the essence of those movies 0:57:48.400 --> 0:57:51.440 Minutes of Society, Dead Presidents. Why can't we capture that? Now? 0:57:51.560 --> 0:57:53.440 I don't feel like anybody can capture the essence of 0:57:53.520 --> 0:57:56.040 those great nineties films. Now. Maybe I'm just old na 0:57:56.200 --> 0:57:58.000 not stuck in my waists, but I just don't feel 0:57:58.040 --> 0:58:01.000 like nobody captures those anymore. I don't get feelings the same, 0:58:01.120 --> 0:58:03.440 especially especially with black. Well when you see when you 0:58:03.520 --> 0:58:06.600 see black entertainment right now, I'm gonna go somewhere with this, 0:58:07.040 --> 0:58:11.120 and you see all the sharpie beards, don't insult vent 0:58:12.440 --> 0:58:14.600 that's hilarious. You look back and watch a show like 0:58:14.680 --> 0:58:17.880 White Shadow and you see the way that their hair 0:58:18.040 --> 0:58:21.080 and how real it was, or Cooley High, you know, 0:58:21.280 --> 0:58:25.000 nineties it was like an offshoot of that where there 0:58:25.120 --> 0:58:28.560 was just a natural, like analogs salt of Earth thing, 0:58:28.960 --> 0:58:32.720 and we've all become so like groomed and meticulous. And 0:58:33.240 --> 0:58:35.320 that's part of the challenge, you know, like the culture 0:58:35.400 --> 0:58:38.680 has changed, you know, and things look different and things 0:58:38.960 --> 0:58:41.440 feel different. So I think the best one can do 0:58:42.320 --> 0:58:44.560 is go back and make a period piece and try 0:58:44.600 --> 0:58:46.400 to be as true to that period. If you're gonna 0:58:46.400 --> 0:58:48.680 make a movie about the nineties or the eighties or 0:58:48.760 --> 0:58:51.120 the seventies or the fifty whatever it is. But to 0:58:51.240 --> 0:58:54.360 make a contemporary black film right now, it's gonna be 0:58:54.400 --> 0:59:00.880 sharpies and you know, Beijing and damn envy us a run. 0:59:01.080 --> 0:59:05.280 It's a running thing. Which story would you want to tell? Now? 0:59:05.720 --> 0:59:08.560 I don't just see what I want to dedicate myself 0:59:08.600 --> 0:59:10.600 to now, because I see what's happening in the culture. 0:59:10.600 --> 0:59:14.720 It's just like incredible black stories, journeys and do what 0:59:14.840 --> 0:59:17.320 you just said, Like, how can I now know what 0:59:17.400 --> 0:59:20.400 I know now at fifty one and coming into my prime? 0:59:20.800 --> 0:59:23.600 How can I, you know, give back and and tell 0:59:23.680 --> 0:59:26.600 inspiring stories. I think it'd be dark and edgy and whatever, 0:59:26.720 --> 0:59:30.000 you know. But there's there's a lot of black stories 0:59:30.080 --> 0:59:33.360 being told now, a lot of and nobody wants to 0:59:33.400 --> 0:59:35.000 say that because it's not a lot of them. It's 0:59:35.000 --> 0:59:36.960 a lot of them being told, but not enough for us, 0:59:37.040 --> 0:59:39.080 I guess to be critical of them, that's right, you 0:59:39.120 --> 0:59:41.000 know what I mean? So because certain movies come out 0:59:41.000 --> 0:59:43.000 and I'll just be like, I'm not gonna say nothing. Yeah, 0:59:43.240 --> 0:59:45.680 I don't want to impact the sales or the ratings 0:59:45.760 --> 0:59:48.080 or anything. You know. Well, I will stay to say 0:59:48.160 --> 0:59:51.520 this because this, this takes time. I think the challenge, 0:59:51.920 --> 0:59:54.920 you know, uh, in our culture and our cinema is 0:59:55.440 --> 0:59:58.040 we compete with one another instead of competing with what 0:59:58.200 --> 1:00:01.120 came before us or what it is considered the standard. 1:00:01.560 --> 1:00:04.600 And so black cinema they are like a handful of 1:00:04.680 --> 1:00:07.360 like truly greats, don't get me wrong, but in order 1:00:07.400 --> 1:00:11.960 for us to really really you know, achieve excellence. You 1:00:12.080 --> 1:00:16.560 gotta look at the typicals whatever Scorsesey Coppola, James Cameron, whoever. 1:00:16.920 --> 1:00:19.280 You know, you have to press yourself up against those guys, 1:00:19.600 --> 1:00:22.560 those those ladies, and like figure out what it is 1:00:22.960 --> 1:00:25.560 and do your homework, you know, and and don't try 1:00:25.600 --> 1:00:28.720 to just speak to your own community. Try to be 1:00:28.840 --> 1:00:31.760 transcendent or attempt to be transcendent to well said well, 1:00:31.920 --> 1:00:34.120 Alan Hughes, make sure you check out Damn Mama. You 1:00:34.160 --> 1:00:37.680 can see it everywhere on the twenty first on FX 1:00:37.720 --> 1:00:40.720 and it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning, Scott.

Okay, And I'm want 1:01:57.440 --> 1:02:04.360 to play a little clip of it. He crazy right 1:02:04.400 --> 1:02:09.680 now because you let it go the body, mind, soul 1:02:09.880 --> 1:02:14.320 can heal it? Sauce Ruster Dora husband Ralph Pittman vows 1:02:14.400 --> 1:02:18.320 for the voice top story. Baby, are you ready to 1:02:18.400 --> 1:02:28.720 talk about Ralph? Yeah? You break it down, break it down, 1:02:28.840 --> 1:02:31.360 break it down, break it down. And so the first 1:02:31.400 --> 1:02:34.400 part of that, you heard Candy and Marlow get into 1:02:34.440 --> 1:02:37.640 a really, really heated exchange. Anytime you hear Candy gar 1:02:39.320 --> 1:02:46.200 you know, and I love Candy, I love you, Candy, 1:02:46.280 --> 1:02:49.440 don't do it. Um. So she got really upset and 1:02:49.520 --> 1:02:52.160 they went to a new low. So basically what happened 1:02:52.320 --> 1:02:55.400 was and also I want to say this, the reason 1:02:55.480 --> 1:02:57.920 why Bravo came to me and gave me these trailers 1:02:58.160 --> 1:03:00.440 is because they were sick and tired of me telling 1:03:00.520 --> 1:03:03.480 everything that's going on in the season. But shouldn't they 1:03:03.560 --> 1:03:05.920 want that. No, they didn't want me to tell everything 1:03:06.160 --> 1:03:11.920 beforehand and completely um, but because I want them to 1:03:11.960 --> 1:03:15.240 know the peace treaty is off. Because they try to 1:03:15.280 --> 1:03:18.000 do some funny business about this trailer and still trying 1:03:18.040 --> 1:03:20.160 to tell me what time it is. No one tells 1:03:20.200 --> 1:03:23.400 be Scott what time it is the funny business basically, 1:03:23.480 --> 1:03:25.880 like you know, they upset that. You know, well, initially 1:03:26.280 --> 1:03:28.880 because we broke two married and medicine exclusives. They told 1:03:28.920 --> 1:03:30.520 me they were going to take the trailer somewhere else 1:03:31.520 --> 1:03:33.360 and I said, if you did that, I'm gonna go 1:03:33.400 --> 1:03:35.240 to war. And when I said go to war, it 1:03:35.320 --> 1:03:37.600 means that I will recap every episode of the show 1:03:37.800 --> 1:03:40.840 before the show comes out that talk Scott. Oh yeah, 1:03:41.080 --> 1:03:44.040 My sources are extensive. It's not just Housewives. I have 1:03:44.160 --> 1:03:48.439 executives production where we want to go with just a show, 1:03:48.920 --> 1:03:52.520 just thank you and to be honest, you know, and 1:03:53.040 --> 1:03:55.280 why are we letting the chop a fly? Andy Cohen 1:03:55.360 --> 1:03:58.760 does not need to be hosting the reunions for black shows. 1:03:59.600 --> 1:04:01.720 He doesn't I have the cultural relevance. And it's not 1:04:01.840 --> 1:04:04.600 me being disrespectful to Andy coin. But you can't use 1:04:04.640 --> 1:04:06.560 your white privilege to sit there and talk down to 1:04:06.640 --> 1:04:11.280 people who need that job, especially black women. Okay, because 1:04:11.320 --> 1:04:13.920 he doesn't have the finesse. You can't finesse our culture. 1:04:14.120 --> 1:04:16.320 Either you're a part of it or you're not. And 1:04:16.440 --> 1:04:18.200 Andy can choose not to make that decision because he's 1:04:18.200 --> 1:04:20.720 an executive produce all of that. Absolutely, so be Scott 1:04:20.720 --> 1:04:23.439 should be hosting the reunion show. Yes, okay, yeah, because 1:04:23.560 --> 1:04:27.040 no one has an extensive you know, history with the 1:04:27.120 --> 1:04:30.400 Housewise as I didn't. It doesn't the franchise I do. 1:04:30.600 --> 1:04:32.080 But it doesn't have to be a reunion show. It 1:04:32.120 --> 1:04:35.600 could be like a show every RecA recap show, recap 1:04:35.680 --> 1:04:38.720 showy about it every week. If you come on right 1:04:38.760 --> 1:04:41.920 after the episode, right after the episode, she interviews, well, 1:04:42.000 --> 1:04:44.080 be Scott interviews to cast new all that other stuff. 1:04:44.240 --> 1:04:46.520 You know why that's interrupted because there's so much conversation 1:04:46.560 --> 1:04:48.840 that happens about these shows on social media, because why 1:04:48.880 --> 1:04:52.000 wouldn't you just have a show on your network just 1:04:52.160 --> 1:04:55.040 carries that conversation to television. And think about this. When 1:04:55.080 --> 1:04:57.480 the first show first started, I had the Housewives on 1:04:57.560 --> 1:05:01.520 my YouTube channel. I was interviewing Housewise Mariah Carry, Jennifer Lopez, 1:05:01.600 --> 1:05:04.320 and the list goes on way back when before it 1:05:04.400 --> 1:05:05.840 was even the thing. Now people are like, oh, I 1:05:05.880 --> 1:05:09.320 got celebrities on YouTube. Ben done that, you said two 1:05:09.360 --> 1:05:11.040 people had you block. But we got to get to 1:05:11.280 --> 1:05:14.480 why the thing that interaction they were having, so they 1:05:14.600 --> 1:05:17.360 went to a new low. So basically, Marlowe brought up 1:05:17.760 --> 1:05:21.520 about um, the shooting that happened at Candy's restaurant. Candy 1:05:21.560 --> 1:05:26.360 got upset, went into the and then said and then said, 1:05:26.960 --> 1:05:29.880 um brought up Marlowe's history, criminal history, and then the 1:05:29.920 --> 1:05:32.080 fact she slashed a girl in the face who later 1:05:32.120 --> 1:05:40.520 committed suicide. That got real low somebody somebody talking about 1:05:41.240 --> 1:05:42.960 I mean, that was just like I think they were 1:05:43.000 --> 1:05:45.680 just having a moment to kind of recenter themselves. Um. 1:05:45.840 --> 1:05:47.960 And then the other exclusive of should I just keep 1:05:48.000 --> 1:05:50.440 it for the other part, Well, the other component of 1:05:50.560 --> 1:05:53.400 this is that in Portugal they had your group trip 1:05:53.680 --> 1:05:58.160 and there is a recording, so one housewife recorded another housewife, 1:05:58.720 --> 1:06:01.960 UM having discussion about that housewife kissing another woman on 1:06:02.000 --> 1:06:05.520 the show. So there you don't understand that because I 1:06:08.240 --> 1:06:10.040 was confused, and that's the reason why I'm giving broad 1:06:10.080 --> 1:06:11.320 But just a little bit because I don't want to 1:06:11.360 --> 1:06:13.600 say who the people were that did the recording and 1:06:13.680 --> 1:06:15.120 what was you know, I'm gonna give a little bit 1:06:15.200 --> 1:06:18.200 the reason to watch the show, but that is exclusive. 1:06:18.320 --> 1:06:20.960 They went to New Lows and I can't wait to 1:06:21.000 --> 1:06:23.240 see it. I don't watch the show, but I took 1:06:23.280 --> 1:06:24.280 a sip of that tea and I was like, you know, 1:06:24.400 --> 1:06:27.520 give me another simple sound, not not before we go. 1:06:27.880 --> 1:06:29.960 You know, earlier you were telling about two people as 1:06:29.960 --> 1:06:31.800 you blocked, two people that have got me blocking. You 1:06:31.880 --> 1:06:33.480 were telling me that one of them called today to 1:06:33.560 --> 1:06:35.680 try to get back on the show. Get one of 1:06:35.720 --> 1:06:37.919 them was here in town this week and wanted to host. 1:06:38.280 --> 1:06:39.640 You know, and let me to say this. I want 1:06:39.640 --> 1:06:42.080 to say this for the record, Nini is the all 1:06:42.200 --> 1:06:45.360 time funniest housewife. She has the comedic quality that no 1:06:45.480 --> 1:06:48.320 one else has. Of course, we are also, regardless of 1:06:48.400 --> 1:06:51.280 whether she said so or not, we're friends. So how 1:06:51.400 --> 1:06:54.000 it got started was she got on the show. Even 1:06:54.040 --> 1:06:56.240 though I know Nini the longest, we are friends. I've 1:06:56.280 --> 1:06:58.320 hung out with her so many times, she said we 1:06:58.360 --> 1:07:00.400 weren't friends on the show. So by the time the 1:07:00.440 --> 1:07:02.880 information got to me that she was fired, I said 1:07:02.960 --> 1:07:05.000 run to hell out of it, and then when I 1:07:05.080 --> 1:07:07.959 did so, blocked me. I'm not friends anymore. No, well 1:07:08.520 --> 1:07:10.240 I still, I mean, I still have love for her. 1:07:10.280 --> 1:07:12.640 She was not wrong about Bravo. She went about it 1:07:12.720 --> 1:07:15.800 the wrong way. That's all I got to say. So 1:07:15.920 --> 1:07:19.480 when was the last time I spoke to Ninny years now? 1:07:19.640 --> 1:07:21.760 Damn it, man, don't sound like your friends. And then 1:07:21.840 --> 1:07:24.600 the other one is Porscha. She blocked me because I 1:07:24.680 --> 1:07:27.160 put out the exclusive about how she got her Peach 1:07:27.240 --> 1:07:34.280 cobbo by Bolo, Peach cobbold By, she got it in 1:07:34.400 --> 1:07:39.320 smashed cold, got it Peach Cobboler. Don't hit dump for that. 1:07:39.440 --> 1:07:45.240 See that you doing on the dump? But I got 1:07:45.360 --> 1:07:47.760 love for Nini and Porscha and they should unblock me 1:07:47.840 --> 1:07:49.440 and I would love to have them both back on 1:07:49.560 --> 1:07:52.680 Housewives of Atlanta. You should speak to Nini, I should 1:07:53.120 --> 1:07:57.000 Pa and Portion And if I had slept with Bola, 1:07:57.040 --> 1:07:59.120 I would just say, yeah, I did it. Porsche should 1:07:59.120 --> 1:08:02.200 have owned it. She so this with things. Bolo, the stripper, 1:08:02.640 --> 1:08:08.440 the hung stripper, the stripper from like switched out the 1:08:08.480 --> 1:08:13.320 tea ding one kind of tea, y'all just switched So 1:08:13.440 --> 1:08:15.120 Bolo was a couple of years ago. Remember it was 1:08:15.160 --> 1:08:18.000 the rumor that the stripper came. Everybody was drunking in 1:08:18.040 --> 1:08:22.400 the stripper smashed somebody. She is allegedly saying that Porsches 1:08:22.760 --> 1:08:24.720 and I was the one behind that, so that's why 1:08:24.800 --> 1:08:27.960 she blocked me. I like her sheets too, she had sheets. 1:08:28.000 --> 1:08:30.960 I like her. She's getting some part on my right. 1:08:32.160 --> 1:08:36.760 The sheets is really good as got ain't wash the 1:08:41.560 --> 1:08:45.880 pamper by Porsche.

Yes, you 1:09:29.920 --> 1:09:33.120 are a donkey. The latest on that police killing of 1:09:33.200 --> 1:09:35.080 a black man not a new developments in the deadly 1:09:35.120 --> 1:09:37.640 spawshooting rampage. It was a really bad day for him 1:09:37.640 --> 1:09:39.800 and this is what he did, and so we are 1:09:39.960 --> 1:09:44.240 in a state of emergency. Okay. White supremacist violence is 1:09:44.479 --> 1:09:47.479 always have been the number one threat to axicide. But 1:09:47.640 --> 1:09:51.519 I'm also very proud that my wife was white. The 1:09:51.560 --> 1:09:55.800 breakfast club, bitches, please tell me why was I your 1:09:55.880 --> 1:09:58.759 donkey of the day? Wow, Donkey of to Day for Thursday, 1:09:58.800 --> 1:10:01.200 April thirteenth goes to a form An SNL star named 1:10:01.240 --> 1:10:03.559 Victoria Jackson. Never heard of her and tell this story, 1:10:03.600 --> 1:10:05.680 but she was a cast member on SNL for six 1:10:05.800 --> 1:10:08.479 years between nineteen eighty six and nineteen ninety two, and 1:10:08.520 --> 1:10:11.759 I suppose she resides in Franklin, Tennessee, because she decided 1:10:12.120 --> 1:10:14.800 during a council discussion on Tuesday to try her best 1:10:15.479 --> 1:10:18.479 to stop a gay parade from taking place in Franklin. Yes, 1:10:18.560 --> 1:10:21.120 the parade needed a special event permit for the occasion, 1:10:21.360 --> 1:10:24.320 and during Tuesday's conference, it was agreed the celebration had 1:10:24.360 --> 1:10:27.720 been given approval, but Victoria put up a fight. Oh yes, 1:10:27.800 --> 1:10:30.519 this human jar Hellman's Mannas did her best to convince 1:10:30.600 --> 1:10:34.120 the counsel of why Franklin having a pride parade was 1:10:34.160 --> 1:10:37.720 a bad idea. No, seriously, she's not just against homosexual 1:10:37.840 --> 1:10:41.400 she apparently doesn't like pride period. Oh I can't make 1:10:41.439 --> 1:10:47.000 this type of stuff up. Listen, Victoria Jackson. God hates sodomy, 1:10:48.120 --> 1:10:52.400 He hates homosexuality, he said it's an abomination, and he 1:10:52.560 --> 1:10:58.719 hates God hates sexual immorality all kinds or an occasional 1:10:58.760 --> 1:11:03.640 adult tricks are And God hates pride like one of 1:11:03.680 --> 1:11:07.679 the most things. He hates his pride Proverbs eleven twelve. 1:11:07.760 --> 1:11:11.599 When pride comes, then comes disgrace, But with humility comes wisdom. 1:11:12.120 --> 1:11:14.720 The Lord detests all the proud of heart. Be sure 1:11:14.760 --> 1:11:17.840 of this, they will not go unpunished. And sodom and 1:11:17.960 --> 1:11:23.320 Gomorrah proves that God hates sodomy and sexual morality and pride. 1:11:23.800 --> 1:11:27.120 I just want to encourage this generation not to be brainwashed. 1:11:29.120 --> 1:11:32.480 Why would it comes to some religious folks, especially Evangelicals 1:11:32.560 --> 1:11:35.400 and Christians. They can say God hates everything except for hate, 1:11:35.720 --> 1:11:38.880 like God hates hates, God hates blacks, God hates you know, Latinos, 1:11:39.160 --> 1:11:41.679 God hates gluten. But when it comes to racism, okay, 1:11:41.680 --> 1:11:44.599 white supremacy, any form of prejudice which they are clearly displaying, 1:11:44.880 --> 1:11:46.920 God has no hate towards that. And look, I'm no 1:11:47.000 --> 1:11:49.759 Bishop TD Jakes, I'm no Sarah Jakes and Torrey Roberts 1:11:49.840 --> 1:11:51.599 lut to the First Family of Faith, though love them, 1:11:51.800 --> 1:11:53.759 I'm not any of them clearly, but I am almost 1:11:53.800 --> 1:11:58.480 positive that this human keg of craft mandate is totally misinterpreted. 1:11:58.520 --> 1:12:01.599 Proverbs eleven twelve. Okay, when pride comes, then comes disgrace. 1:12:01.680 --> 1:12:04.160 But what humility comes wisdom. The Lord detest all the 1:12:04.240 --> 1:12:06.439 proud of heart. Be sure of this, they will not 1:12:06.520 --> 1:12:09.439 go and punish. Listen, there's three types of pride. Okay, 1:12:09.560 --> 1:12:13.519 you have superiority, you have arrogance, and you have dignity. Okay, 1:12:13.640 --> 1:12:17.760 some say conceit, arrogance or superiority. You know, you have 1:12:17.840 --> 1:12:19.959 the kind of pride that is based in self centeredness, 1:12:20.000 --> 1:12:23.600 and that's destructive. Selfish pride is especially destructive the relationships, 1:12:23.600 --> 1:12:27.400 because the opposite of loving others is not hating them, okay, 1:12:27.479 --> 1:12:30.560 but simply being self centered victoria. Not only are you 1:12:30.720 --> 1:12:33.519 doing the opposite of loving others, doing the opposite of 1:12:33.800 --> 1:12:37.520 love thy neighbor as thy self. You are showing superiority 1:12:37.640 --> 1:12:41.439 and arrogance for people who are simply expressing pride in 1:12:41.600 --> 1:12:44.320 who they are. That's what dignity is. The actual definition 1:12:44.400 --> 1:12:47.040 that dignity is the state or quality of being worthy 1:12:47.120 --> 1:12:49.759 of honor or respect. Dignity is a sense of pride 1:12:50.080 --> 1:12:54.160 in oneself self respect. So Black pride, Gay pride, Latino pride, 1:12:54.200 --> 1:12:57.360 it's simply showing a sense of pride in oneself. Okay, 1:12:57.439 --> 1:13:00.240 that's it. See American pride, all right. When you hear 1:13:00.280 --> 1:13:03.960 people say I'm proud to be an American, it's usually 1:13:04.280 --> 1:13:08.639 rooted in superiority, okay, white superiority, in Anglo Saxon arrogance. 1:13:08.720 --> 1:13:10.880 That will cause you to stand up and tell someone 1:13:10.960 --> 1:13:13.080 who's proud to be who they are and wants to 1:13:13.120 --> 1:13:15.479 hold a parade to celebrate who they are, you know, 1:13:15.840 --> 1:13:19.200 the pride that God actually hates. Okay, we'll make you 1:13:19.320 --> 1:13:22.479 feel superior to those individuals and have you tell them 1:13:22.840 --> 1:13:25.680 God hates them for who they are. You don't even 1:13:25.720 --> 1:13:28.040 know what pride means for real, for real Victoria. Okay, 1:13:28.200 --> 1:13:30.400 not gay pride, pride to rock. You probably think the 1:13:30.439 --> 1:13:32.920 Proud Boys are shining examples of the type of pride 1:13:33.000 --> 1:13:36.920 God loves. But that's another another story. Now, be Scott, 1:13:37.240 --> 1:13:39.519 I feel you have thoughts. I mean, you almost made 1:13:39.560 --> 1:13:42.080 me want to shout. That was I mean, Charlotta Magne, 1:13:42.120 --> 1:13:44.840 that was quite quite the spill right there. I just 1:13:44.960 --> 1:13:47.280 think that she much like you know, she left SNL 1:13:47.880 --> 1:13:50.200 right to for a sitcom and didn't get picked up, 1:13:50.720 --> 1:13:54.880 just like her face. Jesus. So, I'm so tired of 1:13:54.920 --> 1:13:58.280 people who look like that having any opinion on my community. 1:13:58.920 --> 1:14:01.960 Pick up your face. Pick your face up first before 1:14:02.000 --> 1:14:03.560 you come over here telling me what I should and 1:14:03.600 --> 1:14:06.800 should not be doing. Please, let Remy Mark give form 1:14:06.840 --> 1:14:11.240 an SNL star Victoria Jackson the biggest heh heh heh, 1:14:11.840 --> 1:14:17.599 you stupid motherfuck you gotta use that one. That's good. 1:14:17.720 --> 1:14:23.240 That's your face, your face before you got anything to 1:14:23.280 --> 1:14:30.320 say about me, anything about your face. All right, Well, 1:14:30.360 --> 1:14:33.680 thank you for that, Donkey of the dame. All right, now, 1:14:33.760 --> 1:14:35.559 when we come back, let's open up the phone lines 1:14:35.640 --> 1:14:38.080 eight hundred five eighty five, one oh five one. Let's 1:14:38.120 --> 1:14:40.680 talk colleges. Oh yeah, there was an article in a 1:14:40.760 --> 1:14:42.800 business inside even though I didn't go to college. Well, 1:14:42.920 --> 1:14:44.960 there was a good article in Business inside, all right, 1:14:45.040 --> 1:14:47.400 and they were saying, the majority of Americans now think 1:14:47.439 --> 1:14:50.200 getting a college degree isn't worth it. That's right. Forty 1:14:50.240 --> 1:14:52.800 two percent of people say, uh, forty two percent of 1:14:52.800 --> 1:14:54.760 people with college degree and said it didn't end up 1:14:55.200 --> 1:14:58.639 being worth getting. Right, And now they say that fifty 1:14:58.680 --> 1:15:00.800 six percent of Americans now say a four year college 1:15:00.840 --> 1:15:03.200 degree isn't worth the car. So let's talk about it. 1:15:03.200 --> 1:15:05.840 I would assume because it didn't translate in the dollars 1:15:05.880 --> 1:15:09.799 for some people. Maybe, yeah, I mean college is very expensive, 1:15:09.920 --> 1:15:11.640 you know. And we'll talk about it when we come back. 1:15:11.720 --> 1:15:14.320 Eight hundred five A five one oh five one. I 1:15:14.439 --> 1:15:16.720 will say, and I've been saying this for a long time. 1:15:16.840 --> 1:15:18.960 I think going to high school and going straight to 1:15:19.080 --> 1:15:22.360 college is you said, we're gonna talk about it. We 1:15:22.400 --> 1:15:23.920 talking about it when we come back. People have something. 1:15:24.040 --> 1:15:25.640 We have to be on time for BT and we 1:15:25.720 --> 1:15:29.000 have to practice good habits. Could you stop go to commercial? 1:15:29.200 --> 1:15:35.880 That sound right? Being on time for BT? What the point? 1:15:37.200 --> 1:15:39.560 All right? Right? What we'll talk about it when we 1:15:39.600 --> 1:15:41.400 come back. We're gonna we're a little late anyway, so 1:15:41.400 --> 1:15:43.479 now that makes sense. Eight hundred five eight five one 1:15:43.520 --> 1:15:45.360 on five one, we'll talk about it. It's the Breakfast 1:15:45.360 --> 1:15:51.680 Club Warning Breakfast Club in v Charlemagne, the guy we 1:15:51.760 --> 1:15:54.080 are the Breakfast Club out co host B Scott is 1:15:54.160 --> 1:15:56.759 here and we're opening up the phone lines. Eight hundred 1:15:56.800 --> 1:15:58.720 five eight five one oh five one. We were talking 1:15:58.760 --> 1:16:01.840 about something we've seen in the Business Insider where they're 1:16:01.840 --> 1:16:03.960 saying the majority of Americans now I think a college 1:16:04.000 --> 1:16:06.679 degree isn't worth it, and they said fifty six percent 1:16:06.720 --> 1:16:09.280 of Americans now say a four year college degree isn't 1:16:09.360 --> 1:16:12.840 worth the cost. And I was saying that I got 1:16:12.920 --> 1:16:15.639 my degree of course from Hampton University HBCU shot everybody 1:16:15.640 --> 1:16:17.519 at all at Hampton and Lums. I would say, I 1:16:17.560 --> 1:16:19.960 think that students should take some time off before they 1:16:20.000 --> 1:16:22.200 go to college. And I'm gonna tell you why. When 1:16:22.240 --> 1:16:24.479 I went to college, and as most students go to college, 1:16:24.479 --> 1:16:26.360 a lot of them go to pass. They just want 1:16:26.400 --> 1:16:28.800 to get their degree and get out. And that's what 1:16:28.920 --> 1:16:30.640 I did. I got my degree and got out. But 1:16:30.840 --> 1:16:34.519 now realizing there's so many classes and courses that I 1:16:34.600 --> 1:16:36.800 should have really listened to because it would have helped 1:16:36.840 --> 1:16:38.920 me in you know, life, in life, you know what 1:16:38.920 --> 1:16:40.880 I mean. And I wish I could go back to 1:16:41.000 --> 1:16:43.240 those courses. And I tell my daughter, who's an NYU 1:16:43.320 --> 1:16:45.559 now that you know, take those classes serious. Just don't 1:16:45.600 --> 1:16:48.920 study to pass study to actually learn whether it was accountant, 1:16:48.920 --> 1:16:51.560 whether it's business, whether it's marketing and management. Now, I 1:16:51.640 --> 1:16:53.960 didn't get my degree in communications. I got my degree 1:16:54.080 --> 1:16:56.840 in marketing and management, which I use in my career 1:16:56.840 --> 1:16:59.080 because I always said I was going to have money 1:16:59.640 --> 1:17:01.240 going in high school. I just needed to know how 1:17:01.240 --> 1:17:03.040 to keep it, how to invest it, and that's what 1:17:03.160 --> 1:17:05.760 college taught me. But I tell kids to take time off. 1:17:05.800 --> 1:17:07.960 When I tell kids what courses, they should say because 1:17:07.960 --> 1:17:09.320 I think they got to figure out and learn what 1:17:09.400 --> 1:17:10.880 they want to do. You know, I think if you 1:17:10.920 --> 1:17:12.960 take that time off, maybe jump into the workforce a 1:17:13.040 --> 1:17:15.200 little bit, then you can really understand what you want 1:17:15.240 --> 1:17:17.040 to do. Because most people don't know what they want 1:17:17.040 --> 1:17:18.640 to do. They go college, They go to college and 1:17:18.720 --> 1:17:21.120 just try to figure it out. That's interest, you know. 1:17:21.200 --> 1:17:23.519 I tell my daughter, my daughter's fourteen now she's a freshman. 1:17:23.760 --> 1:17:25.920 I tell her now that, you know, even if she 1:17:26.000 --> 1:17:27.680 doesn't know what she wants to do, even even though 1:17:27.720 --> 1:17:30.479 she does. I think going to college is a good 1:17:30.720 --> 1:17:33.120 thing to do until you figure it out, because yeah, 1:17:33.120 --> 1:17:35.040 because you're not wasting time, Like at least you'll have 1:17:35.120 --> 1:17:37.439 a degree after those four years. I didn't go to college, 1:17:37.479 --> 1:17:39.360 you know, even though I am a doctor honorary doctor 1:17:39.400 --> 1:17:41.600 from South Carolina, but I didn't go to college. But 1:17:41.640 --> 1:17:43.400 I'm just saying I feel like that four years is 1:17:44.080 --> 1:17:47.880 it's a good way to deal with your time. But 1:17:48.880 --> 1:17:50.519 courses that you don't know, Like my daughter went from 1:17:50.880 --> 1:17:53.439 real estate to be she wanted to be an attorney, 1:17:53.520 --> 1:17:55.679 then she went back to real estate, so she doesn't 1:17:55.720 --> 1:17:58.439 necessarily know, Um, what do you think? I mean? I 1:17:58.479 --> 1:18:01.040 can only speak from experience, you know. I went to 1:18:01.160 --> 1:18:04.160 the University of nor kallin Choppa Hill, and for me, 1:18:04.680 --> 1:18:07.920 it was something that was definitely needed because they gave 1:18:08.040 --> 1:18:11.160 me a basic, working knowledge of the world. And I 1:18:11.200 --> 1:18:12.960 feel like a lot of people could benefit from that. 1:18:13.479 --> 1:18:16.880 I do believe that just knowing just fundamentals of just 1:18:17.040 --> 1:18:20.640 like photosynphesis or just like certain things just allows you 1:18:20.760 --> 1:18:24.040 to appreciate things in a whole new way. And I 1:18:24.160 --> 1:18:26.760 do believe that you should use college as you were 1:18:26.760 --> 1:18:29.800 saying Charlemagne, to kind of explore, because that's what the 1:18:29.880 --> 1:18:32.320 general requirements are to The general requirements are all over 1:18:32.400 --> 1:18:34.880 the place, and as you explore different little taste of things, 1:18:35.160 --> 1:18:37.160 you can then say, Okay, I want to go deeper 1:18:37.240 --> 1:18:39.840 in that, and that becomes your major. And my fear 1:18:39.920 --> 1:18:41.840 is that if they were to take time off and 1:18:42.000 --> 1:18:44.120 they go and work, then they're going to start getting 1:18:44.160 --> 1:18:46.880 real life responsibilities, which means you're buying stuff with the 1:18:46.920 --> 1:18:48.720 money that you're make into this job, and so that 1:18:48.840 --> 1:18:51.360 means you got to keep that job to keep these things, 1:18:51.640 --> 1:18:53.519 and then prevents you from ever going back. So don't 1:18:53.520 --> 1:18:56.439 The thing about exploring is you're exploring by paying a bill. 1:18:56.520 --> 1:18:58.599 Like you look at certain colleges of forty fifty thousand 1:18:58.600 --> 1:19:02.120 dollars a year and you're Lauren spending money and might 1:19:02.200 --> 1:19:03.720 not you might be taking the wrong classes that you 1:19:03.760 --> 1:19:05.320 don't like. Like there's a lot of people that or 1:19:05.360 --> 1:19:07.920 six years seven year college students because they started thinking 1:19:07.960 --> 1:19:09.800 they want to be something and then they wound up 1:19:09.840 --> 1:19:11.240 figuring it out, that's not what I want to do, 1:19:11.520 --> 1:19:13.120 and then by the time they graduate, they have three 1:19:13.160 --> 1:19:15.400 hundred four hundred thousan dollars worth of debt that they 1:19:15.439 --> 1:19:17.240 got to pay off, and now it takes some twelve 1:19:17.360 --> 1:19:19.280 years to pay off. I like what the Scott said, though. 1:19:19.320 --> 1:19:20.840 You know, if you don't go to school, you probably 1:19:20.840 --> 1:19:22.960 getting habit of just working. Yeah, you know. And I 1:19:23.000 --> 1:19:25.200 also think that sometimes you can tell it, like when 1:19:25.200 --> 1:19:27.720 people just don't have a basic knowledge of stuff, you'd 1:19:27.760 --> 1:19:29.600 be like, oh, okay, I get it. You just you 1:19:29.960 --> 1:19:35.120 skip some courses. Let's go to the phone lines. A 1:19:35.160 --> 1:19:38.000 lot of people are on the lines. Hello, who's this Hey, 1:19:38.080 --> 1:19:40.800 good morning, Hey Bernard, go on and talk to us. 1:19:41.040 --> 1:19:42.560 All right, So I just wanted to touch on the 1:19:43.080 --> 1:19:46.880 I word. Out of college I felt about eleven years. 1:19:47.479 --> 1:19:50.680 And so when it comes to the affordability, colleges are 1:19:50.800 --> 1:19:55.320 very but it's also public schools that are much more 1:19:55.360 --> 1:19:58.640 affordable and in some cases if you qualified for like 1:19:58.800 --> 1:20:03.000 programs that actually an entire umge for free without paying 1:20:03.000 --> 1:20:06.760 anything out of pocket. It's usually when we got to 1:20:07.200 --> 1:20:10.559 those master pisis and gradual program or those private schools 1:20:11.080 --> 1:20:13.320 that folks are paying a ton of money and not 1:20:13.439 --> 1:20:16.320 really seeing that return on the better spat. Okay, I 1:20:16.360 --> 1:20:18.439 won't say that too. You know, the bad thing and 1:20:18.640 --> 1:20:21.000 This is why we always talk about, you know, free education. 1:20:21.880 --> 1:20:24.479 My mom worked extra hard and my dad work extra 1:20:24.520 --> 1:20:27.880 hard to so that I wouldn't have huge college bills 1:20:27.920 --> 1:20:29.759 when I graduated, right, I think they paid like seventy 1:20:29.760 --> 1:20:31.000 percent of my college to which and I had to 1:20:31.040 --> 1:20:33.120 pay thirty percent when I graduate. So for me, the 1:20:33.160 --> 1:20:35.320 biggest thing for my kids, I have six, is to 1:20:35.479 --> 1:20:38.479 make sure that you have six, six kids a twenty one, 1:20:38.640 --> 1:20:41.120 eighteen nine eighty six in a one year old. That's impressive. 1:20:41.200 --> 1:20:43.519 But for me, I want to make sure my kids 1:20:43.600 --> 1:20:46.040 don't have any college bills. So I work extra hard 1:20:46.080 --> 1:20:48.280 to make sure when they graduate they started from zero. 1:20:48.520 --> 1:20:51.560 You do have to work extra hard that you know. 1:20:51.680 --> 1:20:52.840 You know what? That was what college do that? I 1:20:52.880 --> 1:20:55.160 don't hear y'all talk about enough. Don't you learn other 1:20:55.240 --> 1:20:57.599 things outside of just getting a degree, like meeting people, 1:20:57.720 --> 1:21:00.760 networking skills? That was another And you know me coming 1:21:00.800 --> 1:21:02.559 from New York, all I was about was New York. 1:21:02.760 --> 1:21:04.280 But when I went to college, I had a roommate 1:21:04.280 --> 1:21:06.439 from Mississippi. I had a roommate from Ohio. I had 1:21:06.439 --> 1:21:08.719 a roommate from New Orleans. I had a roommate from Jersey. 1:21:08.960 --> 1:21:11.680 So it opened me up, you know, do music to 1:21:11.800 --> 1:21:14.240 all those different areas of music and things like that, 1:21:14.400 --> 1:21:17.040 and in most cases, it's a safer environment to a 1:21:17.080 --> 1:21:20.320 spot different things and learn how to interact with people 1:21:20.800 --> 1:21:22.960 than the real world. So it's like a buffer. It's 1:21:23.000 --> 1:21:24.760 like a step right before you on your own. And 1:21:24.840 --> 1:21:27.680 that's why I'm not knocking these people who said it 1:21:27.880 --> 1:21:29.920 wasn't worth it to get a degree. But are you 1:21:30.160 --> 1:21:34.280 just equating worth to monetization because you probably got life 1:21:34.560 --> 1:21:37.439 lifelong friends. Like my wife has her two best friends 1:21:37.479 --> 1:21:39.040 or from college, right, you know what I mean, they're 1:21:39.160 --> 1:21:41.160 friends with twenty plus years. And I also think that 1:21:41.240 --> 1:21:43.479 you touched on something that was powerful you said in 1:21:43.640 --> 1:21:45.000 terms of a lot of people go to college just 1:21:45.120 --> 1:21:48.040 to pass. Correct, it's about why you are there. But 1:21:48.160 --> 1:21:50.920 if you're there to learn and actually get something from 1:21:50.960 --> 1:21:53.160 the experience, you're going to have a different result than 1:21:53.240 --> 1:21:55.360 someone that's they're just to pass. That's true too. Like 1:21:55.360 --> 1:21:56.800 I didn't want to go to college, right, I was 1:21:56.880 --> 1:21:59.160 a DJ. I wanted to do music, but in my family, 1:21:59.240 --> 1:22:02.000 I was the first person to go to college in 1:22:02.120 --> 1:22:04.479 my family. Wow, So my parents were like, no, you're going, 1:22:04.520 --> 1:22:05.640 Like they wanted me to go to more House and 1:22:05.640 --> 1:22:07.160 I was like, More House too far, like they wanted 1:22:07.240 --> 1:22:09.000 me to go. So for me it was I was 1:22:09.040 --> 1:22:11.840 doing it more for them than for myself. You're not 1:22:11.920 --> 1:22:14.040 a more house man. You went Hampton was good for you. 1:22:14.240 --> 1:22:16.559 I'm a Hampton man, sir, Yeah, that's yeah, yeah, yeah, 1:22:16.920 --> 1:22:19.360 it's nothing wrong. Hap man. I can call some my 1:22:19.439 --> 1:22:21.360 More House people. Do you think he's a more house man? 1:22:21.400 --> 1:22:25.680 You call them? But I thought how you know how? 1:22:25.840 --> 1:22:28.840 Oh my god, I'm about to fight you here. I'm 1:22:28.840 --> 1:22:30.840 about I'm about to fight you a here my money. 1:22:32.920 --> 1:22:36.240 I've been fighting my whole life. Five a five one 1:22:36.280 --> 1:22:38.960 oh five one. We're talking about colleges this morning. Now 1:22:39.000 --> 1:22:40.600 what we were saying, I am majority of Americans now 1:22:40.680 --> 1:22:43.640 thinking think getting a college degree isn't worth What are 1:22:43.680 --> 1:22:45.879 your thoughts? And they're saying fifty six percent of Americans 1:22:45.920 --> 1:22:47.800 now say a four year college degree is it worth 1:22:47.880 --> 1:22:49.840 the cost? Let's talk about it. It's the Breakfast Club 1:22:49.880 --> 1:22:58.439 the morning. It's topic time called eight hundred five five 1:22:58.479 --> 1:23:00.400 one oh five. Wanted to join it. So you're with 1:23:00.439 --> 1:23:04.800 the Breakfast Club. Talk about it morning. Everybody's DJ NV 1:23:05.040 --> 1:23:07.120 Charlemagne the guy. We are to breakfast club. We have 1:23:07.240 --> 1:23:10.240 our co host b Scott here. Now we're talking a 1:23:10.360 --> 1:23:13.240 majority of Americans now thinking getting a college degree. Is 1:23:13.320 --> 1:23:16.719 it worth it? Now? You went to which school? Carolina? Carolina? 1:23:16.720 --> 1:23:18.840 You got your degree? I didn't. Okay, So psychology, What 1:23:18.920 --> 1:23:21.040 were your thoughts on going to college. Have you learned 1:23:21.040 --> 1:23:23.080 a lot of the things that you know that you 1:23:23.200 --> 1:23:25.160 learned in college? Do you use them in quote unquote 1:23:25.200 --> 1:23:27.960 real life? No, I damn it, man. I think that 1:23:28.080 --> 1:23:30.000 what college did for me is just gave me a 1:23:30.080 --> 1:23:32.680 way of thinking. It gave me a basic knowledge that 1:23:32.840 --> 1:23:35.599 I use in everyday life. Do I remember the ins 1:23:35.640 --> 1:23:38.080 and outs of all the particular courses. No, but I 1:23:38.240 --> 1:23:41.560 do remember the basics of how things work. And it 1:23:41.720 --> 1:23:43.760 also showed me that if I do this, I get this. 1:23:43.960 --> 1:23:46.439 I do this, I get this. It was my first 1:23:46.680 --> 1:23:49.960 time of being like I can put in the work 1:23:50.040 --> 1:23:52.640 and I get a certain result. And that translated to 1:23:52.880 --> 1:23:54.960 my life, like I now know if I put in 1:23:55.040 --> 1:23:57.160 the work, no one can touch that. It's like no 1:23:57.200 --> 1:23:59.640 one can touch my degree. But I do feel that 1:24:00.040 --> 1:24:02.320 college just need to change to correct them a little bit. Yes, 1:24:02.479 --> 1:24:04.720 I think there's a lot of things that we should learn, 1:24:04.880 --> 1:24:08.760 whether it's investments, whether it's accounting, whether it's taxes. A 1:24:08.880 --> 1:24:10.519 lot of doing that in high school. Now my daughter, 1:24:10.560 --> 1:24:13.519 my daughter's school has had a financial literacy because I 1:24:13.600 --> 1:24:16.000 love that. I love that real estate things like that. 1:24:16.080 --> 1:24:18.760 I think they should be teaching us in college now. 1:24:18.840 --> 1:24:22.439 And college should be free. It should be like other countries. 1:24:22.680 --> 1:24:24.439 You can go to college for free and you don't 1:24:24.479 --> 1:24:26.920 have that debt at the end. But I also believe 1:24:26.960 --> 1:24:30.200 there's a lot of financial aid. There's also different scholarships 1:24:30.360 --> 1:24:33.559 grants that people can't apply for, especially minority students. Well, 1:24:33.640 --> 1:24:37.559 unless the Supreme Court does what they're going to that affirmative. Yeah, 1:24:37.640 --> 1:24:42.120 let's go to the full lives. Hello. Who's this Hey, Preston, 1:24:42.160 --> 1:24:44.600 good morning? Are calling from Oh I'm coming from the 1:24:44.680 --> 1:24:49.040 Capital City. Okay, Now, what's your thoughts on college? You 1:24:49.080 --> 1:24:52.080 think it's worth it or not? Yeah? In simple words, 1:24:52.160 --> 1:24:55.519 Yet it's going to expand on that. I think it's 1:24:55.560 --> 1:24:58.519 a big misunderstanding that just going to college is going 1:24:58.560 --> 1:25:01.040 to make it rest correct and that's not the case. 1:25:01.200 --> 1:25:04.920 Going to colleges and persiament of the studies and you 1:25:05.000 --> 1:25:08.280 know a lot of people actually go to college don't 1:25:08.320 --> 1:25:10.639 look too make a lot of money. They just look 1:25:10.720 --> 1:25:13.679 to do something they want to do in life. That's true, 1:25:14.160 --> 1:25:17.120 But I also would say this too, And like Charlomagne said, 1:25:17.439 --> 1:25:19.639 and a lot of these schools, once you change the curriculum, 1:25:19.720 --> 1:25:21.560 you change the mind frame of a lot of the 1:25:21.600 --> 1:25:23.360 way that people think. I think a lot of times 1:25:23.479 --> 1:25:26.400 colleges teach you how to be a worker and not 1:25:26.520 --> 1:25:29.400 an investor, not an entrepreneur. And like even with my 1:25:29.479 --> 1:25:32.160 daughter school now, like they're teaching them how to be entrepreneurs. 1:25:32.240 --> 1:25:35.679 They are encouraging to sell bracelets and sell certain things 1:25:35.760 --> 1:25:38.400 in design and make things. So what that is I 1:25:38.439 --> 1:25:41.840 can see my kids already being entrepreneurs and talking about 1:25:41.880 --> 1:25:43.840 business and how much this cost and how much is 1:25:43.880 --> 1:25:45.640 the investment? How much do you make back? So I 1:25:45.680 --> 1:25:47.600 think the curriculum really needs to change a lot of 1:25:47.600 --> 1:25:50.040 the guarantee that those people would afford to two percent. 1:25:50.080 --> 1:25:51.640 If you ask them why they think it's not worth it, 1:25:51.720 --> 1:25:54.320 they say as to debt. I bet you majority of 1:25:54.360 --> 1:25:56.679 them say it. And one thing we didn't talk about 1:25:56.720 --> 1:25:58.680 too is that, um, I know they did this, Like 1:25:58.840 --> 1:26:01.960 Carolina is the intern ships. So I still will only 1:26:02.040 --> 1:26:05.200 have access to those in internships by being at college. 1:26:05.520 --> 1:26:07.560 So during the summers, I would be doing internships. I 1:26:07.560 --> 1:26:10.840 would be exploring once again before it became real. I 1:26:10.920 --> 1:26:13.200 think that's whack, but that's that's the true because even him, 1:26:13.560 --> 1:26:15.519 you have to be enrolled in college to do an 1:26:15.520 --> 1:26:18.519 intern into breakfast. I'm only a radio personality because I 1:26:18.640 --> 1:26:21.479 was allowed to do an internship in nineteen ninety eight 1:26:21.600 --> 1:26:24.920 at ninety three Jams and Charleston Soft Before there was 1:26:25.439 --> 1:26:27.360 before you had to be in college to get one. 1:26:27.439 --> 1:26:29.679 But I thought you must say before there was radio 1:26:33.080 --> 1:26:36.120 a minute. But like you said, yeah, but think about it. 1:26:36.479 --> 1:26:38.439 Somebody now who probably came up the same way that 1:26:38.479 --> 1:26:40.559 you did, wouldn't get a chance of your internship, wouldn't 1:26:40.560 --> 1:26:42.639 be able to do radio because they are not enrolling. 1:26:42.760 --> 1:26:47.800 Consolutely stupid. All right, Hello, who's this? Hello? Hey? What's 1:26:47.840 --> 1:26:51.400 your name? Brow Andrew? What's up? Talk to us? What's 1:26:51.400 --> 1:26:54.719 your thoughts? A long time listening? Um? I actually agree 1:26:54.720 --> 1:26:59.200 with you. I got my b A. And when I 1:26:59.280 --> 1:27:01.840 got out of college, I remember going to a job 1:27:01.920 --> 1:27:05.000 interview and the first thing they said was what was 1:27:05.040 --> 1:27:07.080 your job experience? And I was like, I just got 1:27:07.120 --> 1:27:10.679 out of college. I don't have any. So I didn't 1:27:10.680 --> 1:27:13.080 get that job. And actually the job that I got 1:27:13.400 --> 1:27:16.880 was making penny until I got more experience. And the 1:27:16.960 --> 1:27:19.599 current company i'm at now, I've been there for over 1:27:19.760 --> 1:27:22.599 ten years, actually started listening to y'all around the same 1:27:22.680 --> 1:27:25.599 time I started the job. But it was a fight 1:27:25.720 --> 1:27:28.040 to get the position and didn't even getting you know, 1:27:29.200 --> 1:27:31.600 salary increases for the company. You know, just having a 1:27:31.680 --> 1:27:34.479 degree you walk in the door don't necessarily mean you're 1:27:34.479 --> 1:27:36.360 going to get a good position. That's true. It's just 1:27:37.200 --> 1:27:39.080 you know, you can go to college and you spend 1:27:39.160 --> 1:27:40.640 all this money. I got a house that I'm not 1:27:40.720 --> 1:27:42.439 even living in that I'm paying for it right now, 1:27:42.920 --> 1:27:46.960 and it doesn't pay off financially when you have those 1:27:47.080 --> 1:27:51.200 loans on your credit and you're not making the money 1:27:51.280 --> 1:27:52.920 that you think you're going to make me go to college. 1:27:52.960 --> 1:27:55.000 That's why I said, I told you, I'm guarantee if 1:27:55.040 --> 1:27:57.040 you pull those forty two percent of people who say 1:27:57.040 --> 1:27:58.880 college degrees aren't worth it, all of them say it's 1:27:58.880 --> 1:28:00.680 because of the student loaned that. But I won't say 1:28:00.680 --> 1:28:03.439 it too for I would say probably thirty percent forty 1:28:03.479 --> 1:28:05.800 percent of the money that I make is from my 1:28:06.040 --> 1:28:09.519 HBCU brothers and sisters. Yeah, the network, Like you know, 1:28:09.680 --> 1:28:12.000 somebody that works at let's say Pepsi and they hired 1:28:12.080 --> 1:28:14.120 me for something, or somebody that works for AT and 1:28:14.200 --> 1:28:17.560 T or somebody that works at State Farm or HBCU go. 1:28:17.800 --> 1:28:20.559 It's a lot of my brothers and sisters that went 1:28:20.600 --> 1:28:23.800 to HBCUs, whether it was more House or Clark or 1:28:24.600 --> 1:28:28.280 a Spellman or Morgan State or that other HU now 1:28:28.360 --> 1:28:31.280 just joking, Howard or Hampton Morgan's like all of them. 1:28:31.320 --> 1:28:34.560 I get money from that. Keep the money around. My 1:28:34.680 --> 1:28:37.519 wife heard her three best friends she all she met 1:28:37.600 --> 1:28:40.000 him at the University of South Carolina. The best friends. 1:28:40.080 --> 1:28:42.120 Now they were her bridesmaid and their wedding. So that's 1:28:42.160 --> 1:28:45.080 got to be worth it, right. Yeah. The alumni, yeah yeah, 1:28:45.080 --> 1:28:47.000 I'm not associ I mean even even our boss a 1:28:47.080 --> 1:28:48.439 pay at them and me. Of course, she went to 1:28:48.520 --> 1:28:51.479 Hampton University, and I think those are good places if 1:28:51.520 --> 1:28:52.800 you don't know what you want to do, or you 1:28:52.840 --> 1:28:53.960 do know what you want to do, or don't go 1:28:54.040 --> 1:28:55.680 to want to go to college for four years. I 1:28:55.760 --> 1:28:57.400 think the moral of the story of school is worth it. 1:28:57.640 --> 1:28:59.160 College is worth it. I think so. I think so 1:28:59.520 --> 1:29:01.800 or I feel a little bad hit the two of 1:29:01.880 --> 1:29:04.439 my more House partners that asked him, could DJ Andry 1:29:04.479 --> 1:29:06.920 have been a more House man? One said yep. The 1:29:07.000 --> 1:29:09.760 other one said, hell yeah, we know three hundred light 1:29:09.840 --> 1:29:12.720 skinned negroes from New York. The other one said he 1:29:12.760 --> 1:29:16.240 would have been our version of DJ Cannon and Drama. Yeah, well, 1:29:16.280 --> 1:29:18.880 shout Cannon and Drama went to Clark, so shout the mars. 1:29:18.960 --> 1:29:21.479 I actually got accepted to More House. My um, my 1:29:21.640 --> 1:29:24.120 uncle's or my cousins a professor there, and I love 1:29:24.200 --> 1:29:26.160 More House. I love shout to all those brothers out there. Well, 1:29:26.160 --> 1:29:27.479 you didn't scrag me as a more House man, but 1:29:27.479 --> 1:29:29.280 they said they're very diverse. They said they have every 1:29:29.320 --> 1:29:32.320 type of Negro from theo hu Huxtable to the wire 1:29:32.400 --> 1:29:36.040 corner boys. Great, well, I don't think you'd have been 1:29:36.080 --> 1:29:37.920 a more House man. I wouldn't have been a college. 1:29:37.920 --> 1:29:40.200 But I think he's more like Morgan State, South Carolina State, 1:29:40.600 --> 1:29:45.960 More State doctor from I don't know anything about Morgan State, 1:29:46.000 --> 1:29:47.360 but that sounds like you're not gonna be allowed to 1:29:47.400 --> 1:29:52.840 go there anymore. I need a gavel. I went to 1:29:53.000 --> 1:29:55.320 visit Morgan State when I was looking at HBCUs and 1:29:55.680 --> 1:29:57.519 I remember me and my dad walked up and they 1:29:57.560 --> 1:30:02.960 were playing dice on the Morgan State and brothers from 1:30:03.000 --> 1:30:04.680 Morgan State just looked up from their dice games to 1:30:04.720 --> 1:30:06.040 day and said, man, how are you gonna do something 1:30:06.120 --> 1:30:11.200 like that?

It needs to 1:33:36.800 --> 1:33:38.760 be in the worst possible conditions. And what's wild is 1:33:38.800 --> 1:33:40.840 they tape it and then put it out. That's my point. 1:33:40.880 --> 1:33:42.599 And then also it was wild is that they're letting 1:33:42.600 --> 1:33:45.439 them do that. So where are the people, the election officers, 1:33:45.479 --> 1:33:47.280 correction officers, where are they at? And I don't even 1:33:47.320 --> 1:33:50.680 think that's prison. That's I think that's the county that 1:33:50.760 --> 1:33:53.639 still counting that county. I'm not sure. I think they're 1:33:53.640 --> 1:33:56.320 stilln county. Come on, man, that man got that's that's 1:33:56.439 --> 1:33:58.360 that's a different level of evil. But but if you 1:33:58.520 --> 1:34:00.519 stabbed me, trying to kill me, im I supposed to 1:34:00.560 --> 1:34:04.519 think about what I you say, there's no levels to evil, right, 1:34:04.760 --> 1:34:06.880 if you try to kill me, there's no levels? No, Okay, 1:34:06.920 --> 1:34:09.120 So let me ask you a question. Um, Jeffrey Dahma 1:34:09.160 --> 1:34:11.320 wasn't on a different level of evil than somebody who 1:34:11.400 --> 1:34:13.080 might just walk up to you and shoot you. No, 1:34:13.280 --> 1:34:15.960 it's different because I'm you tried to kill me. Sure, 1:34:16.280 --> 1:34:19.280 not a person just je just trying to kill somebody. 1:34:19.360 --> 1:34:22.320 You tried to kill me, but you mentioned that. This 1:34:22.439 --> 1:34:24.040 is good that you mentioned that, because that was so 1:34:24.240 --> 1:34:27.080 hard for me to just watch that whole situation with 1:34:27.120 --> 1:34:31.839 the Jeffrey Dahmer stuff, because it definitely glamorized the whole situation. 1:34:32.320 --> 1:34:34.320 It should not have been made into a series. We 1:34:34.439 --> 1:34:36.839 did not need to see that. There were people online 1:34:36.880 --> 1:34:40.880 talking about, oh Jeffrey dahma was fine, Oh lord, you 1:34:40.920 --> 1:34:44.400 know what I mean that he preyed on black gay 1:34:44.479 --> 1:34:47.920 men like ate them up and were sitting there acting 1:34:48.000 --> 1:34:50.040 like I was like the culture sometimes you see certain 1:34:50.080 --> 1:34:52.439 things and you like throw it all the way, and 1:34:52.640 --> 1:34:54.639 this is one of the stories that that's how I feel. 1:34:54.760 --> 1:34:56.360 This is disturbing. I was like when I saw it, 1:34:56.439 --> 1:34:59.040 I was like, it's like, yeah, that was that's yeah, 1:34:59.040 --> 1:35:00.920 that's I'm glad I'm not in that life. But if 1:35:00.960 --> 1:35:05.479 somebody tries to kill me, yes, I'm if I catch you. 1:35:05.680 --> 1:35:08.120 If you try to nobody like that, why not if 1:35:08.120 --> 1:35:11.080 you try to kill me and stand you're not torturing. 1:35:11.560 --> 1:35:14.160 That is something actually that I have been thinking about 1:35:14.200 --> 1:35:16.280 because you know, with all the robberies and stuff that's 1:35:16.280 --> 1:35:19.320 been happening in LA I was thinking about getting the gun, 1:35:20.040 --> 1:35:23.120 and I have to ask myself if someone came in 1:35:23.240 --> 1:35:25.280 my house, would I actually use it? Yeah, if you 1:35:25.320 --> 1:35:28.880 know how to absolutely, I don't know, just for materialistic 1:35:28.960 --> 1:35:31.639 things that's ensure. How do you know how your life? 1:35:31.680 --> 1:35:34.120 How do you know? It's just they can be trying 1:35:34.120 --> 1:35:38.759 to kill somebody's exclusive material that you're protecting your life, somebody. 1:35:38.840 --> 1:35:41.599 If somebody comes in in my house not asking any 1:35:41.680 --> 1:35:43.639 questions because I don't know if you're coming for material things? 1:35:43.640 --> 1:35:45.000 Are you come to take my life? So you think 1:35:45.000 --> 1:35:47.040 I should get the pial and you should learn how 1:35:47.040 --> 1:35:49.120 to use it? I think I think a black person 1:35:49.160 --> 1:35:51.680 in this country owning a legal firearm and knowing how 1:35:51.720 --> 1:35:53.320 to use it as a form of self care. How 1:35:53.360 --> 1:35:54.720 long are you in town for I take you the 1:35:54.800 --> 1:36:03.240 gun wrench? I am to Monday? Okay? Oh god um. 1:36:03.360 --> 1:36:06.400 And the next story we're talking about is Monique Monique again, 1:36:06.760 --> 1:36:09.320 is you know, letting the chop a fly? This time 1:36:09.360 --> 1:36:11.799 she's letting the chop a fly on CBS and paramount 1:36:11.880 --> 1:36:15.599 over unpaid royalties of the Parkers. So she's upset about 1:36:15.640 --> 1:36:18.479 that she's seeking royalties upon the Parkers. She considers it 1:36:18.640 --> 1:36:22.400 a breach of contract lawsuit and is filed in Los 1:36:22.439 --> 1:36:27.040 Angeles Superior Court. The court documents reported that state reportedly 1:36:27.080 --> 1:36:29.840 state that the network officially depressed the show's profitability to 1:36:29.960 --> 1:36:33.639 retain millions that will otherwise the contractually due to Monique 1:36:34.040 --> 1:36:36.479 Production Company. So how do you guys feel about that? 1:36:36.600 --> 1:36:38.320 I think she should get every dime. And she said 1:36:38.400 --> 1:36:40.600 something to her statement. I think she said that the 1:36:40.720 --> 1:36:44.360 producers got their money, and so the producers, you know, 1:36:44.360 --> 1:36:46.240 the producers knew about it and they sued to get 1:36:46.320 --> 1:36:48.679 their money. But talent is always the last to note, 1:36:48.880 --> 1:36:50.800 which is very true. So I think she should get 1:36:50.800 --> 1:36:53.880 every freaking set and I believe. And I have you 1:36:53.960 --> 1:36:57.240 seen the special? Have you watched her? It was funny 1:36:57.280 --> 1:36:59.400 to me, and she took it so personal, like I 1:36:59.479 --> 1:37:02.040 did not affect her to keep it so real where 1:37:02.080 --> 1:37:03.680 she's talking about, you know, she was used to be 1:37:03.760 --> 1:37:06.160 in special ed And I was like, wow, I did 1:37:06.280 --> 1:37:08.320 see that part and it was like she was it 1:37:08.400 --> 1:37:09.960 was like she was crying one minute and then one 1:37:10.000 --> 1:37:11.640 minute she was laughing and making it funny. It was 1:37:11.680 --> 1:37:14.519 like I could feel the personal struggle in her. And 1:37:14.640 --> 1:37:17.839 I think this also represents that struggle she is fighting 1:37:18.200 --> 1:37:21.000 for what she believes as hers. It is hers, yes, 1:37:21.160 --> 1:37:24.320 and just in general, I think Monique has been right 1:37:24.439 --> 1:37:28.880 about so much and and I think sometimes we as 1:37:29.040 --> 1:37:31.200 in black media, get on the wrong side of things, 1:37:31.320 --> 1:37:32.840 and I think with her we were on the wrong 1:37:32.880 --> 1:37:35.040 side of it. A lot of us were were And 1:37:35.320 --> 1:37:37.760 I'm happy to see that she's now coming for everybody 1:37:38.240 --> 1:37:40.479 that didn't do right by her. And I feel that 1:37:40.520 --> 1:37:42.000 same way, because you know that's what I did with BT. 1:37:42.479 --> 1:37:44.840 I'm if you do wrong by me, I don't care 1:37:44.920 --> 1:37:46.840 if you black ball me. You got to get a 1:37:46.880 --> 1:37:51.000 coin out of bite. They snatched me off stage and 1:37:51.080 --> 1:37:53.920 so the girls today could stand on them.

It was when I was doing my homework. 1:39:25.720 --> 1:39:29.120 I seen the story. It's good good. I mean, I 1:39:29.200 --> 1:39:32.040 feel like, you know, in two I'm thirteen. It was 1:39:32.520 --> 1:39:35.200 I was hosting the Red Carpet and I was doing 1:39:35.280 --> 1:39:38.160 all of the you know, branded integrations with the Procter 1:39:38.240 --> 1:39:42.200 Gamble things and um, you know, leading up to that moment, 1:39:42.280 --> 1:39:44.880 I just felt like I wanted to be perfect. I 1:39:44.960 --> 1:39:46.800 was like, this is my time to shine. I'm going 1:39:46.840 --> 1:39:50.599 to do this. And when I arrived and started doing 1:39:50.720 --> 1:39:54.160 everything that I needed to do, um, a decision was 1:39:54.520 --> 1:39:57.000 made to you know, to take me down. And I 1:39:57.120 --> 1:39:59.439 was on live television, so I was just somebody said, 1:40:00.000 --> 1:40:02.720 you know, bees to feminine looking right now, and we 1:40:02.880 --> 1:40:06.320 want to change the look. And so I was taken down. 1:40:06.400 --> 1:40:08.840 Adrian Byline was pulled from being I think she was 1:40:08.920 --> 1:40:12.360 just attending. I think she was just attending to taking 1:40:12.400 --> 1:40:14.599 my spot. I went and had was you know, had 1:40:14.640 --> 1:40:17.080 to change my clothes and pull my hair back, take 1:40:17.120 --> 1:40:19.960 off a lot of the makeup, and put on men's clothing. Um, 1:40:20.080 --> 1:40:22.560 and then I was able to return. But in a 1:40:22.680 --> 1:40:25.600 co Hoke's capacity with Adrian byline, this is how you 1:40:25.720 --> 1:40:28.200 know so much of what those executives and these networks 1:40:28.240 --> 1:40:31.479 do is performative now because that wasn't that long ago. 1:40:31.640 --> 1:40:36.519 Absolutely ten years later you know that that you're so 1:40:36.960 --> 1:40:38.840 accepting to that because it takes a lot of people 1:40:38.920 --> 1:40:41.719 to have to make that call right. There was no pushback, 1:40:41.800 --> 1:40:44.599 like nobody said no, we're not doing that. And that's 1:40:44.600 --> 1:40:46.840 why I was. It was so important for me to 1:40:47.360 --> 1:40:50.559 do the BT show. So the opportunity came about. UM 1:40:50.720 --> 1:40:52.479 shout out to big you know, biggle in no way. 1:40:52.479 --> 1:40:54.360 I call it biggling away because she makes big things 1:40:54.400 --> 1:40:57.000 happen for herself but also people like me. Um. She 1:40:57.160 --> 1:40:59.760 had shows on BT, she had Boomerang, and she also 1:40:59.800 --> 1:41:03.200 had Twenties. But every time she would be talking about 1:41:03.200 --> 1:41:05.200 the twenties and stuff, a lot of the people would 1:41:05.280 --> 1:41:08.040 keep bringing up what BT did to me. You know. 1:41:08.120 --> 1:41:10.120 They would say, like the North still remembers like the 1:41:10.200 --> 1:41:13.439 Game of Thrones, and so one thing led to another. 1:41:13.680 --> 1:41:15.280 She was like, b how can we make this right? 1:41:15.320 --> 1:41:17.000 Because I want to make this right. I'm in a 1:41:17.040 --> 1:41:20.560 position with BT now where I can bring you to 1:41:20.640 --> 1:41:23.240 the table and we can figure it out, and so 1:41:23.360 --> 1:41:26.519 she arranged a call with Scott Mills and her and myself, 1:41:26.880 --> 1:41:30.360 And initially all I wanted was an apology. All I 1:41:30.479 --> 1:41:33.200 ever wanted from the beginning of all of it, which 1:41:33.240 --> 1:41:35.519 is say we were wrong for doing this tea. I 1:41:35.560 --> 1:41:37.559 didn't care about the show. I make my money already, 1:41:37.600 --> 1:41:40.320 I've been making it. I'm an old school celebrity blogger. 1:41:40.760 --> 1:41:43.519 I get my money from the traffic, and so I've 1:41:43.560 --> 1:41:45.080 been doing good. So I just wanted to apology. But 1:41:45.160 --> 1:41:47.679 Lena's like, we're gonna get you more than an apology, 1:41:48.160 --> 1:41:52.880 and so, you know, and for me, I also wanted 1:41:52.920 --> 1:41:55.600 to forgive them. I wanted to change the narrative. I 1:41:55.680 --> 1:41:57.720 don't want to continue. I didn't want to continue going 1:41:57.760 --> 1:42:00.640 through my life. This company did wrong by me, and 1:42:00.760 --> 1:42:02.519 so for me to be able to be the first 1:42:02.640 --> 1:42:05.400 trans non binary person to host an executive producer show 1:42:05.439 --> 1:42:08.759 at BT, it was beautiful. I had a wonderful experience 1:42:08.800 --> 1:42:12.160 with the new BT. All the people that were involved 1:42:12.160 --> 1:42:14.800 in that situation with me back then we're gone. So 1:42:14.920 --> 1:42:19.080 Scott Mills, you know, was amazing. The show went smoothly, 1:42:19.560 --> 1:42:23.080 and I'm just grateful to have been able to be 1:42:23.240 --> 1:42:26.680 a part of the inclusion we see today, you know, 1:42:26.800 --> 1:42:29.040 like I was able to see what I paved the 1:42:29.120 --> 1:42:31.920 way for people didn't know that guy started. I moved 1:42:31.960 --> 1:42:34.200 to LA in two thousand and five, started doing videos 1:42:34.200 --> 1:42:37.240 in two thousand and seven, and I've always presented myself 1:42:37.320 --> 1:42:40.240 like this. Before there was language for it. Now, you know, 1:42:40.560 --> 1:42:44.400 the transgender non binary community, that's a whole situation, and 1:42:44.479 --> 1:42:46.840 it's in it's in the you know, like it's in 1:42:46.960 --> 1:42:49.680 the it's like a thing. Now it's trendy. Yeah, it's 1:42:49.720 --> 1:42:53.040 trendy when I was Yeah, But when when I first started, 1:42:53.080 --> 1:42:55.000 I was like I would call myself and drogyness, and 1:42:55.120 --> 1:42:57.840 then it changed to gender not conforming, and then it 1:42:58.080 --> 1:42:59.840 was you know, now it was trans non binary. But 1:43:00.240 --> 1:43:04.400 my expression hasn't changed, you know, And so that was 1:43:04.479 --> 1:43:06.080 just beautiful for me. They're like damn. I was like, 1:43:06.120 --> 1:43:08.759 I'm actually still made it. And when you are losing 1:43:08.800 --> 1:43:11.639 so many people in your life just because we're getting older, 1:43:12.200 --> 1:43:14.040 it was like, wow, I actually made it to this moment. 1:43:14.680 --> 1:43:17.680 The first episode of that show that I did, you know, 1:43:17.720 --> 1:43:19.840 the twenties after show would be Scott. It was just 1:43:19.960 --> 1:43:21.880 like I actually cried because I was like Damn. I 1:43:22.000 --> 1:43:27.400 was like, I'm here. I would never thought that the 1:43:27.520 --> 1:43:30.240 network that was snatching me down and taking me off 1:43:30.320 --> 1:43:32.560 stage would then give me my own show that I 1:43:32.560 --> 1:43:34.720 would host and executive produce. Something that doesn't show you 1:43:34.840 --> 1:43:37.960 how God can move in somebody's life. You know, the 1:43:38.080 --> 1:43:41.120 person that's last one day could be first, and the 1:43:41.120 --> 1:43:42.960 person who's first could be last. A lot of those 1:43:42.960 --> 1:43:45.000 people that were snatching me down at BT are definitely 1:43:45.080 --> 1:43:49.600 last right now. Yeah, people will give Lena hell, but 1:43:49.680 --> 1:43:52.360 they don't realize a lot of the things that Lena 1:43:52.439 --> 1:43:54.360 does behind the scenes. For people like that, what you 1:43:54.400 --> 1:43:58.200 call it, I would tell you, I stayed to myself. 1:43:58.600 --> 1:44:02.200 I don't have no click to Lena. Lena has advocated 1:44:02.240 --> 1:44:04.400 for me the likes that no one has in my 1:44:04.680 --> 1:44:07.759 entire career and she has. And what the first episode 1:44:07.760 --> 1:44:09.639 of the show she shared with me, She's like, Lena 1:44:09.760 --> 1:44:12.439 used to watch my videos and I helped encourage her 1:44:12.479 --> 1:44:14.880 to be the person she is today. People missed that part. 1:44:15.120 --> 1:44:17.240 I was just in my living room, dancing, being myself, 1:44:17.280 --> 1:44:20.799 talking about my experiences and just being free. But ningas 1:44:20.800 --> 1:44:23.519 of people were watching back then. I think about it, 1:44:24.800 --> 1:44:27.040 Like Lena calls me often but I'm thinking about the 1:44:27.120 --> 1:44:29.280 majority of the calls that she's called me for in 1:44:29.360 --> 1:44:31.560 the last few months have all been to do with 1:44:31.680 --> 1:44:37.200 other people. Yeah, other things literally, like I'm literally including you. Literally, 1:44:37.479 --> 1:44:40.439 I've been about other people. Lena calls for something important 1:44:40.560 --> 1:44:42.960 and also Lena has the other day when she called 1:44:42.960 --> 1:44:46.080 it congratulators. But other than that, it's it's it's always 1:44:46.280 --> 1:44:49.640 something to better humanity. Yes, and she helps me have 1:44:49.800 --> 1:44:52.680 a softer heart. Sometimes I can be very oh, you 1:44:52.800 --> 1:44:55.280 did this, I'm gonna do this, and she's like, nah, 1:44:55.400 --> 1:44:57.200 She's like, just help people, you know what I mean, Like, 1:44:57.400 --> 1:44:59.160 just put out the good energy. It's gonna come back 1:44:59.160 --> 1:45:02.800 to you. And I'm more open to not standing alone. 1:45:02.880 --> 1:45:04.760 Let me let me pay it forward like she does. 1:45:05.240 --> 1:45:07.600 And that's what like showing somebody in the way is 1:45:07.640 --> 1:45:11.040 so powerful. I agree, that's right. Shout away. My sneaker 1:45:11.080 --> 1:45:15.040 game is still better than yours, Lena. We got the 1:45:15.120 --> 1:45:17.360 positive notes, so don't move. It's to Breakfast Club, Good 1:45:17.439 --> 1:45:21.400 morning Burning. Everybody is stej Envy, Charlemagne, the guy we 1:45:21.560 --> 1:45:24.920 all the breakfast club be Scott our co host is here. 1:45:25.120 --> 1:45:27.080 Oh yeah, he's got to be back tomorrow too.

But for you guys, once you get used 1:45:50.960 --> 1:45:52.920 to it, you used to it. Now it's your life. 1:45:52.960 --> 1:45:54.519 This is what you do. And I think if it 1:45:54.720 --> 1:45:56.679 was my life and something I was doing every day, 1:45:57.120 --> 1:45:59.040 then I would be used to it.
