WEBVTT - Spice Adams 0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:02.600 This is cut to it with Steve Smith Senior at 0:00:02.640 --> 0:00:08.879 production of The Black Effect and I Heart Radio. I'm 0:00:08.920 --> 0:00:12.879 Steve Smith Senior and I and this is cut to it. 0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:18.319 Good cud do. Let's getting down to do with good 0:00:18.480 --> 0:00:21.560 do it. We asked the questions you always want to know, 0:00:22.560 --> 0:00:25.239 but no one ever asked, let's cut to it. You 0:00:28.480 --> 0:00:30.720 ain't heard am about it? Then we're about to let 0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:45.720 you know. It's all Hey, alexis uh, Alexis that's the wrong? 0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:53.120 You even answer back, and al got a question for you. 0:00:53.400 --> 0:00:56.200 You're doing that, sir, I'm great. I've been struggling with 0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:59.319 myself on frustration right, And so I was like, man, 0:00:59.360 --> 0:01:01.840 what am I first straight about? And so I heard 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:04.480 I heard this and it was it was a great question, 0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:08.800 which is what are we doing and how are we 0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:14.000 dealing with ourselves or maybe with God when we're sitting 0:01:14.040 --> 0:01:19.120 in his waiting room. That's good. And the reason I 0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:23.560 say that is if we're immature enough, we can hear 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:31.240 a delay as a denoma. Oh so my question to 0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:36.399 you is how are you handling waiting in God's waiting room? 0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.959 The first thing comes to mind, is it it exercises 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.840 a lot of patients right exercises a lot of patients 0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:45.399 because you are literally in the middle of whether it's 0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:47.960 something you asked for, whether it's something you're waiting on. 0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:50.800 You you you mentioned waiting room, where there's something you're 0:01:50.800 --> 0:01:54.560 waiting on or waiting for, or something to Uh, manifest 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:56.640 is such a buzzword right now, but you're waiting for 0:01:56.680 --> 0:01:59.960 something to happen. It is that gap where it is 0:02:00.320 --> 0:02:02.680 all right, Uh, I know what either I'm trying to 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.000 detain or whether I'm trying to get to but I 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:07.280 haven't accomplished it yet, or I don't even see an 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:09.959 inkling of it happening yet. So what do you do 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:13.680 in that middle portion? And the middle I've always found 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:17.120 is where you typically get refined to where you get pruned. 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:22.880 It's where um it's it's it's typically where the best 0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:27.760 version of yourself eventually comes forth. It's also the part that, 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:32.440 if I'm being real, completely sucks. It completely sucks, because 0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:36.040 you're you're literally right there in the middle. The cool part, though, 0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:38.920 is when you look back, you tend to see, man, 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:43.720 I came from something um either really bad or something 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:46.079 I didn't like or something I didn't enjoy, and you're 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:48.960 not where you want to be. But you gotta appreciate it. 0:02:49.000 --> 0:02:52.320 So I'll say all that to where, um, you know, 0:02:52.400 --> 0:02:55.520 to answer your question. Oh, it definitely sucks, no doubt 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:57.720 about it. But it's also it's also when I go 0:02:57.800 --> 0:03:00.320 back and I think about it's also I can point 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:02.920 out specific times in my life where it made me better. 0:03:03.000 --> 0:03:07.280 And that's the part that matters. Truth be told, and 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.720 to be totally honest, most of us don't like waiting, 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:15.120 particularly waiting on something to change or something to get better. 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:19.200 Waiting sometimes we could be very frustrated with the experience, 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:25.120 and God is causing or calling us or causing us 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:30.960 to wait because sometimes he it's not we're not asking 0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:33.760 the right way or we're not praying the right way. 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:38.120 Sometimes I'll give it. This is the best analogy I 0:03:38.160 --> 0:03:40.920 can I can do illustrate illustration. I give you the 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:43.480 best illustration. Remember back in the day, you go to 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:45.160 the d m V. Or you go to the old 0:03:45.240 --> 0:03:48.080 butcher or the corner store, and you gotta pull a ticket. 0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:50.000 You gotta get the real ticket, not not not the 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.080 board you're talking about, the actual ticket. You gotta get 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:55.040 the ticketing in there's a little you know, the dots 0:03:55.080 --> 0:03:59.760 and the numbers and say let's just say you're you're 0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:04.840 uh ticket five or eight, you know whatever number? Which 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:09.000 number do you want to fifty seven? And what's the 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:14.720 counter on? Like four? That's really as a TV to 0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:19.360 be here for a while, counters on fifty Okay, I'm 0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.800 two fifty five. Okay, my show, So I get it. 0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:25.000 I get the leap frog here, okay, okay, whatever you do. 0:04:25.560 --> 0:04:30.159 Check still come on Friday. Yeah, okay, cool. So they're 0:04:30.160 --> 0:04:36.359 on two fifty three. Now when we leap frog and 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:38.120 we try to get in front of two fifty three, 0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:42.760 think about this. To fifty seven is Gerard, he's get 0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:47.480 getting the check up. To fifty five is getting a 0:04:48.720 --> 0:04:51.240 his I don't have it, but I'm using it asmin 0:04:51.320 --> 0:04:56.280 halo refhild. But to fifty three he's getting the heart transplant. 0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:02.440 Are you gonna jump your ass in line early? And 0:05:02.520 --> 0:05:04.960 you go in as two fifty three because you stole 0:05:04.960 --> 0:05:08.120 this ticket and now you gotta get a heart transplant? 0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:10.440 Don't even realize it, but all you really went in 0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:13.760 there for and I just want some oxygen in my healer, 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:16.719 or I want to get a check up. Sometimes we 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:22.440 have to understand that God is delaying it because we're 0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:26.640 not ready for Really, what's in there to fifty three 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:29.760 is getting a heart transplant. But you didn't jump the line, 0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:34.120 and you disrupt the order. Now your healthy heart is 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:35.760 now about to be ripped out and you're about to 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:38.120 get a different heart. And somebody will say, well, well, 0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:41.600 God's giving us this hard. But the point is when 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:45.839 you get a heart transplant, there's a process. There's a 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:50.040 process of are you the right blood type, are you 0:05:50.120 --> 0:05:52.360 the right age? How? How do you know to fifty 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:56.680 three isn't a fifty year old man who's who's been 0:05:56.720 --> 0:05:58.839 a smoker, who all they're trying to do it that 0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.520 it's not even a fully operating heart. It is a 0:06:01.600 --> 0:06:06.040 heart that now is applied with a pacemaker. So now 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.920 forty two years old, I can't run anymore, I can't 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:12.680 play any sports. Now. I'm just I've jumped the line 0:06:13.200 --> 0:06:16.920 because I'm impatient because of delay. You took it as 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:20.520 a denial, as a denial, that's good, So I I 0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:25.599 just I've realized in this process of life that one 0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:29.760 I have to have a life of gratitude, better life 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:33.560 of gratitude, And also I gotta start realizing that while 0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:36.760 I'm in God's waiting room that I need to be 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:42.000 appreciative and understanding why God has me in that waiting room. 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:44.800 And that's good. What time you stream on Sundays? I 0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:49.080 need some of this now. I need to tune in 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.520 for this. Appreciate that we're about to launch this. Ain't 0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:59.520 there right back? Say you're gonnalausch this G four crush 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:03.520 the numbers. Well, I just wanted to tell you. I 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:07.839 just I struggled and I thought about you know, life 0:07:07.960 --> 0:07:11.280 is difficult depending on the week, day of the week, 0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:15.040 in the time, it varies. But I also try to 0:07:15.120 --> 0:07:17.000 encourage and want to be more encouraged and want to 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:23.480 be less. I'm a guy says oh half a glass 0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:28.960 half empty means I'm halfway thirsty. Yeah, but really just 0:07:29.200 --> 0:07:33.400 appreciating it. Sometimes God is only putting half of the 0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:36.360 liquid in the in the cup. You ain't ready to 0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:38.040 get the rest. You ain't ready to get the rest 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:42.720 because you know why, sometimes your bladder can handle them. Right. 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:48.320 But so facts facts, Hey, who we got coming up 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:50.760 on the Cut to It podcast?

Yeah, 0:14:24.800 --> 0:14:30.200 where's the other way? Laughing is good? You don't curse 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:35.560 no more. Man, you know you're trying you train. I've 0:14:35.600 --> 0:14:39.040 seen your NFL network. They never bleep out anything you do. 0:14:40.400 --> 0:14:45.040 I don't want the same network. Now I've I've I've 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:48.640 calmed it down. You start come. You always getting into 0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:52.760 with Michael Irvin? What'd you say? What you say? I said? 0:14:54.480 --> 0:14:56.480 All right, So here here's the rundown on the whole 0:14:56.560 --> 0:15:01.280 Michael Irving thing. Yeah, people want to know the people wanted. 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:06.520 So here's what happened. So when we were obviously in 0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:10.600 studio and all that stuff, I'm gonna take my time. 0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:15.880 It's my show. I want to hear the real baby. Oh. 0:15:16.120 --> 0:15:20.920 So so we were, um, you know, Irvis from Florida, Um, 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.280 you know, lives in Texas. So we were you know, 0:15:23.360 --> 0:15:25.280 I kind of asked him a question about his outfits 0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:26.880 and he, you know, he gave me an answer that 0:15:26.920 --> 0:15:30.040 I was like. And so I had been making fun 0:15:30.120 --> 0:15:31.840 of him, kind of you know, messing around because he 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:37.080 wears some flamboyant ones and so he, Mike Irvin said 0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:40.240 something about mine, and I had kind of had a 0:15:40.320 --> 0:15:44.720 conversation with him on who was doing my outfits. I 0:15:44.760 --> 0:15:49.160 remember this, okay, and Mama wifee picks out a lot 0:15:49.240 --> 0:15:53.840 of my stuff because if it was me, I'm gonna 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:55.920 tell you right now, bro, I'll be wearing like three 0:15:56.040 --> 0:16:00.240 or four colors only gray, black, red, So you ain't 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:02.720 gonna style. I have styled, but when it comes down 0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:05.640 to it, when it comes down to it, I'll just 0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:09.560 go at what I feel like. And for me, my 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:13.040 goal to is, man, we're just throwing them a red hat, 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:16.520 play it safe. I can't say I'm throwing a gray suit, 0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:22.120 black shirt, basic foundational colors like to the point that 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:24.760 people that do my suits, they're like, um, all right, 0:16:24.800 --> 0:16:26.520 we got enough of these colors. We need to pick 0:16:26.600 --> 0:16:32.360 some different ones. But I'm gonna do it, but right now, yeah, 0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:37.040 so and and so he would joke around and I 0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:38.960 was still a new guy. So I was, you know, 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:40.480 I was, you know, you know how it is in 0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:43.600 the locker room. Yeah, so I'm the young I'm the 0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:46.320 young pup, and so I gotta take my lickings and 0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:52.920 keep on taking. But basically, after the conversation, I felt 0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:59.280 like since we had a dialogue like shoosters off closer 0:16:59.320 --> 0:17:03.840 off the table, Yeah, and he brought it up on air, 0:17:04.160 --> 0:17:08.280 he brought it up on air, and so I responded 0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:15.520 on air. I responded the way I really felt it all. 0:17:15.720 --> 0:17:17.920 It all makes sense now you see what I'm saying 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:21.760 at a private conversation and then you bring it on. 0:17:21.960 --> 0:17:25.440 So I'm a guy if you clown me on air. 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:30.000 The retribution was on I'm gonna clown you gonna air 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:33.720 if you trip me. You know we're on air and 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:37.520 you playing games. Then I said, okay, the game playing 0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:40.240 begins when we're on air. I'm not gonna do it 0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:46.200 off air. Mhmm, No, I'm gonna du it on air. 0:17:46.840 --> 0:17:48.680 And so that's what it was. And so when he 0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:52.240 said it, it had been like two or three weeks 0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:56.040 that he kept kind of jabbing that man, I'm just like, bro, 0:17:56.800 --> 0:18:00.280 if you don't stop this one more again, one gonna 0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:02.480 get and I said, one more get into my head 0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:07.960 and then he sat and I was like, no, but 0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:11.000 the way I said it, people missed it is I 0:18:11.119 --> 0:18:12.760 just I was gonna do it. I said, when I 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:16.639 come to l A, I'm gonna do it. Do that 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:19.399 mean I'm gonna take this mental note put in my 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:22.879 back pocket. Then when I'm on the plane in l A, 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:27.320 take that note out, you know, because I'm from l A. 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:30.080 I'm back home. Okay, go to Martha's, get me a 0:18:30.119 --> 0:18:32.000 breed of from the spot, Go see my grandma, Go 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:40.600 see my uncle, and oh yeah yeah, while I'm here, 0:18:43.000 --> 0:18:49.640 almost forgot to do list. So look, let me get 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:54.800 my bag. Okay, back all right, rental car check, boom, 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:59.920 gonna get my food. Chat, holler at my boys chat. 0:19:00.320 --> 0:19:07.640 Let's roll over there. Check dude. This is awesome. There's 0:19:07.640 --> 0:19:10.919 nowhere else man. Yeah, so that's what it was. If 0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.920 you call to YouTube, man, it is like a back 0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:18.360 and forth compilation that got you and Michael I. I'll 0:19:18.400 --> 0:19:23.879 watched the whole entire thing dog times. The thing is 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:27.600 Spice has played against me and knows me. Yes, I 0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:38.440 wasn't joking, No, I know how And so but it 0:19:38.560 --> 0:19:42.360 also is a great reminders like, hey, we gotta grow up. Yeah, 0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:46.760 we gotta change how we approach things. And the really 0:19:46.800 --> 0:19:50.440 cool thing about Earth though, is Earth does challenge me. 0:19:50.600 --> 0:19:54.120 He does make me think outside of the box. Earth 0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:58.399 has the gift for the game. Earth is a very um. 0:19:58.600 --> 0:20:02.600 He is a smart man. Um. He knows what he's doing. However, 0:20:03.080 --> 0:20:06.600 it was a little bit of you know, younger, I 0:20:06.720 --> 0:20:10.920 receiver Old World and I've always respected IRV and that, 0:20:11.359 --> 0:20:15.399 and that's kind of why I responded the way I was, 0:20:15.520 --> 0:20:17.920 because I do have so much respect for him, and 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:20.920 I felt at that time it was a personal attack. 0:20:22.160 --> 0:20:24.720 And when when you believe somebody you look up to 0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:29.320 and you mentor that mentors you and you inspire, you 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:35.240 aspire to to to to some degree, have some some 0:20:35.520 --> 0:20:41.159 remnants of, Hey, I hope I could be considered you know, 0:20:41.280 --> 0:20:43.080 I want to. I want to be able to consider 0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:47.000 myself in the same category of Earth as far statistically 0:20:47.080 --> 0:20:51.200 and playing. And so I kind of was like, like, 0:20:52.119 --> 0:20:56.760 you know, at the time, I'm yeah, I'm I'm I'm 0:20:56.800 --> 0:21:01.399 almost forty years old. Yeah, and then it ain't you 0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:04.600 come at me happened because ye, yeah, when I'm talking 0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:12.080 about want to happen. So I'm like yeah, and so 0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:16.000 that's why it's like and I kind of like, man, 0:21:16.080 --> 0:21:18.960 I I don't know what I did that you want 0:21:19.000 --> 0:21:22.080 to do it on the air. So it kind of 0:21:22.160 --> 0:21:26.480 made it. I was, you know, to something. Yes, some 0:21:26.640 --> 0:21:29.240 people say, oh, Steve was in his feelings. I wasn't 0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:33.159 in my feelings. I felt pretty much disrespected because of 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:35.879 and I'm not even I still haven't win in the 0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:38.880 detail and I won't go in detail. We had an 0:21:39.080 --> 0:21:45.600 end depth conversation, a private conversation which I thought, and 0:21:45.680 --> 0:21:48.920 it wouldn't left me and which led me to say, hey, 0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:53.439 I won't make fun of Earth because of the conversation 0:21:53.520 --> 0:21:56.600 we had. And then when he said on camera like 0:21:57.000 --> 0:22:03.160 two weeks later, I'm like this ninja, this ninja te 0:22:04.640 --> 0:22:08.960 check this out, dude, Like I'm fresh off the field, dog, 0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:13.160 like I still got mud in my fingernails, say out 0:22:13.720 --> 0:22:16.399 for a Big ten network. Right. They gave me this CD. 0:22:16.600 --> 0:22:19.359 They said, okay, on how your State Indiana game. They 0:22:19.400 --> 0:22:23.080 said to three players that you think like we're game 0:22:23.200 --> 0:22:25.320 change or whatever. So I'm like, all right, cool, I 0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:29.280 got all right. So it's like me and Mike Hall, 0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:31.960 Mike hallight man, We're gonna have so much fun, dude, Like, 0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:34.840 let's do it. Whom were on here? Three to one? 0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:39.080 Actually go? So Mike says, okay, welcome to Big ten Network. 0:22:39.160 --> 0:22:42.040 I got a special guest Fice Adam stim Let's go 0:22:42.160 --> 0:22:43.879 to the highlights. I thought we was gonna go back 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:46.119 and forth and the and all that. So I'm like, damn, 0:22:46.200 --> 0:22:48.359 all right, So what's all on me? I noticed like 0:22:48.480 --> 0:22:51.359 as I'm talking, I'm the one going through all of 0:22:51.440 --> 0:22:53.760 the highlights. I'm like, dang, it's really all on me? 0:22:53.800 --> 0:22:55.719 All right? So I n all that part because all 0:22:55.760 --> 0:22:58.719 they asked me to do. What's to do? Three players? 0:22:58.800 --> 0:23:01.320 So I did those plays? Is I said all this stuff. 0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:04.000 I was gonna say whatever whatever. So then like right 0:23:04.080 --> 0:23:06.560 after that, he's like, so what do you think about 0:23:06.640 --> 0:23:13.440 produce offensive coordinator? And I was like, what that is 0:23:13.520 --> 0:23:17.399 not what we talked about and say, oh, Momi, this 0:23:17.520 --> 0:23:21.040 is what I'm saying in my head. But like coming 0:23:21.240 --> 0:23:23.360 like what I'm saying. It's like, oh man, I think 0:23:23.400 --> 0:23:26.959 the offensive coordinator's cool. You're talking about the old boy, right, 0:23:27.280 --> 0:23:32.719 But in my mind, I'm like, dog, y'all stay in henda, 0:23:32.840 --> 0:23:34.840 Like I don't know nothing about You can actually something 0:23:34.880 --> 0:23:40.560 about Ben Roethlisberger NFL quarterbacks, But vict I had no 0:23:40.880 --> 0:23:44.960 zero percent percent of what you're talking about. So make 0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:49.080 a long story short. I straightened bomb Dog like like 0:23:49.320 --> 0:23:52.479 none other and they take everything. Then he was like, hey, man, 0:23:52.720 --> 0:23:54.760 what do you think about defense coordinator from Northwestern? I 0:23:54.880 --> 0:23:56.440 was like, man, what they should do is hiring me. 0:23:59.080 --> 0:24:02.600 Get everybody in on line, some gassersta. So I just 0:24:02.680 --> 0:24:05.800 started just saying anything, bro, just like the random questions 0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:08.600 he was asking, I was just giving random answers that 0:24:08.720 --> 0:24:11.040 had nothing to do with the question he was talking about. 0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:15.640 But I straight up bomb Dog, so I can understand 0:24:15.720 --> 0:24:17.840 what you what you're saying. Like sometimes you get caught 0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:21.080 off guard and you're just like, but the thing is, 0:24:21.680 --> 0:24:25.280 you and Earth got a relationship, bro. So when he 0:24:25.400 --> 0:24:27.560 said something like that, it's different when it comes from 0:24:27.640 --> 0:24:30.840 somebody that you figure that that's your mentor like this 0:24:31.000 --> 0:24:32.840 your homeboy, and like y'all been through some of the 0:24:32.920 --> 0:24:36.920 same thing, right, So when he said that, I don't 0:24:36.920 --> 0:24:39.440 know you was like, but the thing is at least 0:24:39.520 --> 0:24:43.920 you responded that way by feeling disrespected, because sometimes people 0:24:43.960 --> 0:24:47.440 feel disrespected and it's like it's on on air, off 0:24:47.520 --> 0:24:50.200 area it on that So the way you handled it 0:24:50.880 --> 0:24:54.080 that was dope. Well I appreciate it the other because 0:25:00.000 --> 0:25:04.680 only wanted to handle You're gonna need a whole bunch 0:25:04.720 --> 0:25:12.560 of proxide and a lot of ice read. We have 0:25:12.760 --> 0:25:15.680 to take a break and morning a thing. We gotta 0:25:15.680 --> 0:25:21.840 pay some bill. You got check.
