00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: I watched that, I'm laughing my mask off. Now tell

304
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: me how you even hooked up with them. Nai Lynn

305
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: from Plastic cup Boys is actually a childhood friend of mine.

306
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: My name is gonna kill me for telling the story,

307
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: but he knows this is my story. So when I

308
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: was like five night he needs a little Acrosstreet from

309
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 1: my grandmother, and I used to go play with him,

310
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: and he had this little yellow bouncy horse. Was he

311
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 1: grumpy back then too? He was not grown? Okay, So

312
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: I had this little yellow bouncy horse and I used

313
00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: to go play with the horse. He used to always

314
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: get on the back of my horse. So in my

315
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: mind we went together. In my mind, I trying to

316
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: visualize not even on the back of back of my right. No,

317
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 1: I never let the story go. But literally we're just

318
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 1: childhood friends. And you know, he went off to college

319
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: and became a comedian, and you know, I was just

320
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: out here, you know, working a regular job and stuff.

321
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: And then you know, finally I was like, I'm gonna

322
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: try it. And I reached out to him first and

323
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: was like, you know what you think of this? He

324
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: was like, just try it, you know, do it. And

325
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: I tried it one time and it was pretty addictive

326
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 1: and I was actually pretty good at it, and I

327
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 1: just kept going. So tell me about that first time,

328
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: because I've seen some people in their first ever sex previously,

329
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:35,879
Speaker 1: and some people feel like they can just do it, like, okay,

330
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 1: I'm funny. Let me just get on stage. What was

331
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,120
Speaker 1: your first time? Like, my first time wasn't It wasn't

332
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,239
Speaker 1: even that bad. It was actually pretty good. I think

333
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: I did like twelve thirteen minute, had a long time. Well,

334
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:49,360
Speaker 1: he was telling it's like four rounds in boxing, it's

335
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 1: a long time. Because I felt like twelve thirteen minutes

336
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 1: and it was like awesome. And when I got off stage,

337
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: there was somebody there who saw me and was like,

338
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 1: I got a show coming up and I want you

339
00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 1: on it. Wow. That never and it never stopped from

340
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 1: that moment. What you did to prepare for that? Literally

341
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: it was a day before. I called somebody and was like, Hey,

342
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 1: if you wanted to be a comedian, what do you do?

343
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:12,959
Speaker 1: How does this work? He was like, meet me at

344
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 1: this spot tomorrow at EAT And I showed up at

345
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,639
Speaker 1: the spot. I didn't have no set. I had nothing.

346
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: I know that's bold. Yes, the day before and it

347
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: was literally just off of me asking him like what if?

348
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: And this is my what if? Right now we are

349
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: in the middle of Mastery of Comedy. We have the

350
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: only woman who's part of the Plastic Cupboys. That is

351
00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,679
Speaker 1: just Pam. Now, when you said you had a regular

352
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 1: job first before you decided to go, and what's the

353
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 1: regular job. Yee, I still have a regular job. Okay, No,

354
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,679
Speaker 1: people need to know that. They might think Pam posting

355
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:49,359
Speaker 1: all these flyers and having all these shows and hanging

356
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: out with Kevin Hart and naim Lynn and Donnell Rawlings,

357
00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: but you still have a regular job. To have a

358
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: regular job, Okay. I am a customer supers manager at

359
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: year old company. Okay, so I deal with payroll like

360
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 1: I got a serious job, John, So that's what I do.

361
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 1: And I've been in like retail management for like forever,

362
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: so that's always what I did. So it was hard

363
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: to get into comedy because I was always working like

364
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 1: one to eleven or you know those weird tom frames.

365
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,719
Speaker 1: So I could never even really find time to do shows.

366
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 1: So when my when my parents died, that was like

367
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: the breaking point for me. Both of my parents passed

368
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,320
Speaker 1: away during COVID. My mom and dad passed away like

369
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,360
Speaker 1: a month apart. Wow, that's tough. And during that whole

370
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: time frame I was already into comedy. My mother was

371
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 1: like my biggest fan, Like she pushed and pushed me

372
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: and was like so excited, like if she knew I

373
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: was here right now, she would be outside in the hallway.

374
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:55,160
Speaker 1: I she is like that person. So when they passed away,

375
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 1: there was like so much going on at the same time.

376
00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: I remember being, um, I forgot what city were were in,

377
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,280
Speaker 1: and we were with the Classic cup Boys somewhere, and

378
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: I was like on zoom with my mom, like like

379
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: literally final stage, and as I'm hanging up literally I'm

380
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: hanging up the phone and they're like coming to the stage,

381
00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: just paying and I was like and I ended up

382
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: having like one of my greatest performances on stage, and

383
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 1: everybody was like how to this day, I don't I

384
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: still don't know how I was able to pull that out.

385
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: But through that whole period, I never cancel the performance.

386
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,639
Speaker 1: I never, you know. I think the day of my

387
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 1: father's funeral, I had a show that night. It was

388
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,159
Speaker 1: I had to keep going, and that was like my relief.

389
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: That was my outlet. But I feel like now my

390
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: mom is like God in my ship. It's so weird.

391
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 1: Everything that I say kind of comes to pass, you know.

392
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,520
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I want to meet angela ye.

393
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: I remember saying that I didn't I promised you about

394
00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,639
Speaker 1: you actually yea. Yeah. I was like, I want to

395
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: meet Angela ye you know, I want to do this

396
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 1: and every thing, and I said I wanted to do happen.

397
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: That's amazing, yep. So I just keep speaking at positivity

398
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: and to exist this because it's happening. One of some

399
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,880
Speaker 1: of the hardest things about this as a career, though,

400
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: for people who don't know, the hardest thing is it's

401
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: not even about being funny. It's really more so about

402
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:23,160
Speaker 1: trying to get noticed. It's it's about trying to get

403
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 1: somebody to see something in you that nobody else can see.

404
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 1: Everybody was like, oh, she reminds me of a young Monique.

405
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 1: Oh she reminds me of this, this, this, And then

406
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 1: you see my set and be like, I've never seeing

407
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: anybody like her, you know, and I think we could

408
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 1: do this with her, you know. So the hardest thing

409
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 1: right now for me is like trying to find that

410
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,960
Speaker 1: agent that's gonna benefit me. You know. I don't want

411
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: to be represented as yep, she just the big girl

412
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: comic and she's just gonna come out here and the

413
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,439
Speaker 1: big girl just Pam. But that's but that's how they

414
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 1: want to represent me. They want they want to brand

415
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: me as that, and I don't mind it because that's

416
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: what I represent. But I want you to see past that.

417
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 1: I don't want you to only see that when you

418
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 1: see me. I want you to be like, forget the female,

419
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 1: forget the black, forget the big girl. This woman was funny.

Speaker 1: your Roots. Van Jones is on that show, okay, And

441
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: what's really interesting is that he learned his ancestors were

442
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,680
Speaker 1: free before slavery ended. Here is what that sounded like

443
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: when he got this information. N what's that mean? Does

444
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: it mean they're white? O? What's the only alternative? They

445
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: weren't slaves, so they were free people free. That's crazy.

446
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 1: So your kirkn Doll family was free thirteen years before

447
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: the Emancipation Proclamation. I'm glad to hear that. There hard

448
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 1: time even getting my head there didn't even occurring to

449
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,239
Speaker 1: me that would be a possibility. Man, I ain't gonna lie.

450
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: Finding your Roots is an amazing idea for a show.

451
00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 1: I want to do it. I need to find out

452
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,560

467
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 1: grew up in New York. My mother was born here,

468
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 1: but my grandmother was born in Saint Thomas. Okay, she

469
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 1: she her mother was Puerto Rican. Okay, well you are

470
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: all mixed up. That would be great for you. I

471
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: s no, Lie, We're going to set this up and

472
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: then we might find out like me and Jasmine is related,

473
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: probably all related because you get on my nerve lucky

474
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:09,639
Speaker 1: my brother, Oh man, that would be crazy. Now I

475
00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: really want to do that, though, that's something that I

476
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: always wanted to do. Okay, And speaking of things people

477
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 1: have always wanted to do, Mary J. Blige was on

478
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 1: The Lady Show with Stephen Colbert and she talked about

479
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: the role that she's always wanted to play. Here's what

480
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: she said. I always wanted to play Nina Simone because

481
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: I want to learn how to play the piano. I

482
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,719
Speaker 1: want to learn how to you know, and I love

483
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 1: her songs are very dark and moody, and I can

484
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 1: always find a place for that. So yeah, I definitely

485
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: wanted to want to play her. Man, that would be amazing.

486
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 1: I think that would be a good look. I think

487
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: that that's a good casting action. Yeah, I told you

488
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: I went to go see Nina Simone. You did. It

489
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: was one of the most amazing concerts and amazing moments

490
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: like experiences that I ever had at never listened to

491
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,680
Speaker 1: the music, Yes, well she listened to obviously because she would.

492
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,479
Speaker 1: I've never seen it. Have you ever seen Nina Simone

493
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 1: in concert? No? Never, I've never seen a concert, but

494
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,640
Speaker 1: I watched her though, like I've seen her documentary. Yes, yes,

495
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: And I feel like Mary J. Blige has the depth

496
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: to play that role. And you know what kind of

497
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: pain she'll be drawn from. We would love to say

498
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 1: she has the new children's but got by the way,

499
00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,359
Speaker 1: it's called Mary can cut all right. And Lionel Richie,

500
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 1: he was recently on the View with his American idol

501
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 1: fellow judges Katy Perry and Luke Bryan, and he was

502
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: talking about how All Night Long is no longer All

503
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,920
Speaker 1: night long. Here's what he had to say when I

504
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 1: wrote All night Long was truly all that long? Now

505
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,480
Speaker 1: my All night long is down to a fierce fifteen minutes.

506
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 1: But don't worry about right. It's fifteen minutes a good

507
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: amount of time. Yeah, that's that's about average. Sometimes what

508
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,320
Speaker 1: you wanted to go? How long? Fifteen minutes? It's okay.

509
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: But it's not like I don't want that all the time.

510
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 1: Sometimes I would like a little longer sometimes, No, fifteen

511
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,399
Speaker 1: or twenty minutes is probably average, maybe even shorter than

512
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: that if you look it up. I think the average

513
00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: sex is probably between Have you've looked it up? Alo,

514
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 1: can you do a deep dive? You ain't? You ain't

515
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: getting no thirty forty minutes average sex time straight Angela.

516
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: Angela's shock is shocked right now, what's the average sex time, Angela?

517
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: It says here three to seven minutes, told you, and

518
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 1: then it says vaginal sex at last ten to thirty

519
00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: minutes is considered too long. But this is is according

520
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: to a survey. But this is a fact. You never

521
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: had sex thirty minutes straight? Yeah, yes, I have for

522
00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,920
Speaker 1: sure by ever. Yeah that common. No, it's not. I

523
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: would like. I would like somewhere between fifty and thirty.

524
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,639
Speaker 1: He was on something. If he did thirty, no, I

525
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:40,479
Speaker 1: don't think so, I don't know. Well, listen, okay, Lionel

526
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 1: Richie says, now he only last fifteen minutes, So I

527

Speaker 1: guess that's not bad, because that's that's good for seventy three.

528
00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: I actually met Lionel Richie. Look, I have a story

Speaker 1: And when we come back, we have under the Radar.

541
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 1: These are stories that are not necessarily headline news. They

542
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,239
Speaker 1: are flying under the radar but still important. It's way

543
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,600
Speaker 1: up with Angela Yee. It's in the news that relates

544
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,399
Speaker 1: to you. These stories are flying under the radar. What's up.

545
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,600
Speaker 1: It's way up with Angela Yee. And it is time

546
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: for under the Radar with Mano Yes and Jasmine from

547
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: the Jasmine Brand. I'm here And these are stories that

548
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: aren't headline news, but we definitely want to make sure

549
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: you know about them and that you're aware we feel

550
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 1: that they're just as important. Okay, all right, And this

551
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: one's really sad. This Florida couple has been kidnapped in Haiti.

552
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: They were an American couple on a trip to Haiti

553
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,440
Speaker 1: and they've been held for ransom. Now the story keeps changing.

554
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 1: I know you saw this Mayo and jazzminthe yeah, yeah,

555
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 1: So right now they're asking for two hundred thousand dollars

556
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 1: per person ransom, because that's four hundred thousand dollars altogether.

557
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: That is John Dickins Toussaint and his wife Abigail Toussaint.

558
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 1: They were abducted while they were there for a festival

559
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: and a family visit the According to a news outlet,

560
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 1: they were on a bus from part of Prince when they,

561
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: along with their escort, were taken. Now, initially, the kidnappers

562
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: asked for six thousand dollars for the couple's release, right,

563
00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: which it does, which doesn't sound like a lot compared

564
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 1: to the next number that they wanted. Somebody told them

565
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 1: they could get more. Yeah, yeah, and you know, I

566
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: believe they gave them like two thousand dollars. They were

567
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 1: getting ready to give them that money, and then the

568
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: kidnappers said, you know what, two hundred thousand dollars per person.

569
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 1: They said, Once we sent the money, they tried to

570
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:49,800
Speaker 1: up the price and they were like, we don't have

571
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: that type of money. The family does not have that money.

572
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: And so the FBI has neither confirmed or denied an

573
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 1: investigation into the kidnapping. But that's you know, they're guidelines.

574
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: They don't really do. That was the escort taken with

575
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: them too, the kidnapped. Yeah, they were kidnapped the escort too.

576
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: And they have a child together that just had a birthday. Yeah,

577
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: and you know, the family is saying that they were worried.

578
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 1: They told them not to go, but they wanted to go.

579
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: And according to the family, and this woman, Christie, she

580
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 1: identifies herself as their niece, she said, I do have

581
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: the worst case scenario playing in my head, but obviously

582
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: I don't want that to happen. We just want to

583
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,120
Speaker 1: hear their voice as proof that they are still alive.

584
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. And right right now, the US State

585
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 1: Department labels Haiti under the Level four do not Travel

586
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,480

587
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 1: night man, Yeah that is. I'm praying for their safe

588
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 1: return though, sure, all right. And the FDA has approved

589
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: our can for over the counter sales. We've been following

590
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:46,959
Speaker 1: this story for a while. They've been trying to get

591
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 1: this done. That's a prescription nasal spray that reverses opioid overdoses,

592
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 1: So now it's over the counter. Okay, that's what the

593
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: cops use. Oh, it is. Yeah, so like it was,

594
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 1: it was footage of a cop odn by mistake because

595
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 1: she ran up on somebody that has some drugs on

596
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: them and they had fentanol in it, and then she

597
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: was going through I don't know, like a siege or

598
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: something and they use that. Oh wow. Yeah yeah, So

599
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 1: you know this is going to be available for people

600
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: in big box chains and vending machines even and the supermarkets,

601
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: convenience stores, gas stations, even online with retailers. I think

602
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 1: they need this in clubs, and I think they need

603
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 1: this in schools too, but I don't. I don't I

604
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: mean like immediate access, you know, No, they just probably

605
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: just sell it and then just who I was just

606
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 1: using drugs just keep it in their pocket. Yeah. Yeah.

607
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: It kind of like if you know you have an

608
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: allergic reaction like an EpiPen, you think you're having an

609
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: OD just yeah. I mean, I don't know how that works.

610
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 1: But what this does is it blocks an opioids effect

611
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: on the brain. And so as this overdose crisis has worsened,

612
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 1: there's been more than one hundred thousand drug related deaths

613
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 1: in the US for each of the last two years,

614
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: and so for people who use drugs for their friends,

615
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: for their relatives. Being able to access this prescription medication

616
00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: has been kind of hard for some people. And so

617
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: what they had before was access laws in every state

618
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 1: that allows pharmacists to have a standing prescription so that

619
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: they can dispense that to anybody who requested. But many

620
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 1: pharmacies choose not to do so. You know, they prefer

621
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,719
Speaker 1: not to engage customers around a list of drug use,

622
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 1: especially without a doctor's oversight. And so now this over

623
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: the counter status will make it a lot easier. And um,

624
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 1: the only thing that could be a problem now is

625
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: the cost of it. Okay, I'm all for this. Why now?

626
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: Two dose pack up prescription is often free if you're

627
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: covered by Medicaid or private insurance, or you have a

628
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 1: copy of less than ten dollars. But now, for instance,

629
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 1: in Manhattan, one pharmacy is charging ninety eight dollars for

630
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 1: the box, and then there's another chain in New Jersey

631
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 1: that charges seventy three dollars. I'm gonna get me some, yeah,

632
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,880
Speaker 1: just to have right in case you bump into somebody.

633
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: Keep in somebody they got drugs on their lips. Oh

634
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 1: you need to fear so I thought you was out

635
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: here trying to save someone else's life. I was, but

636
00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: I didn't know where Mayno was going with it. That's

637
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: what I thought. I thought. You know, may don't like

638
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 1: to kiss. That's not true. But I'm saving ladies. May

639
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 1: don't like the kids. Okay, Sugar, give me some sugar,

00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,240

652
00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:55,560
Speaker 1: here Happy Thursday, so new man in the building. And

653
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 1: Rosie Perez is in the cover of Variety, and she

654
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: really told it all all right, she's starring in The

655
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 1: Flight Attendant, And she talked about her former agent. She

656
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: did not name her former agent, but she said that

657
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 1: she was encouraged to undergo cosmetic surgery and that was

658
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,959
Speaker 1: how she could land more roles early in her career.

659
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 1: She said, I don't want her to be canceled. But

660
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 1: she told me that if I did my hair blind

661
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,239
Speaker 1: and got a nose job, I can get you more

662
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: jobs because you're not black. She said, I couldn't believe it.

663
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my goodness, like thank you. Fired.

664
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 1: And then she said after she fired her agent, she

665
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 1: had nobody, she had no money, and she said the

666
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: agent in question also encourage her to pass for white.

667
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: Can you believe that? But a lot of people did

668
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 1: get um nose jobs. She didn't do it, though, did

669
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: you No? She didn't do it. She fired her agent.

670
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 1: I love Rosie Perez. I feel like I grew up

671
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: all of her man like, do the right thing, white

672
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 1: man can't jump. Yeah, her new agent helped her book

673
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 1: do the right thing, and her new agent got her

674
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 1: do the right thing, got her white man can't jump,

675
00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:53,480
Speaker 1: and that's what really jump started her career. But she

676
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 1: said there is still a really long way to go

677
00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: for representation. It's just not enough. And when we do

678
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 1: get our series told, we had some exact who knows

679
00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 1: nothing about who we are as people, and they're like,

680
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: can you spice it up a little bit? You want

681
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: to punch these people in the face, and then if

682
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 1: it's too real there, could you pull it back? Because

683
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: we don't want the audience to feel offended and people

684
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: are getting sick of it. I think that's the reason

685
00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:15,360
Speaker 1: why Everything Everywhere, All at Once was such a big winner.

686
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:18,000
Speaker 1: That's the movie at the Oscars, that one, like all

687
00:35:18,040 --> 00:35:20,120
Speaker 1: of the bigger ones. I think it was like seven Oscars.

688
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,479
Speaker 1: I still got to watch it. We tried, didn't we. Yeah, Okay,

689
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: maybe Manner, you could set Jasmine up with a date

690
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 1: night to watch. Well, it might be good for him

691
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 1: because I'll definitely not gonna watch that. You watch it

692
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:39,919
Speaker 1: ate nice now. In addition, she also talked about making

693
00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 1: peace with Spike Lee Okay, okay, so you know she

694
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:45,359
Speaker 1: did audition for Do the Right Thing. She said, people

695
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 1: think that Spike just discovered me and gave me the role. No,

696
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: he made me work for it. And she had talked

697
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,480
Speaker 1: about how uncomfortable she was over a nude scene in

698
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: the movie. But she said, in our cancel culture, some

699
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 1: people need to be canceled. And when I was telling

700
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: the story, people were ready to cancel Spike Lee and

701
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 1: cancel me for saying something. And I was like, you

702
00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:03,040
Speaker 1: know what this is getting out of him? She said,

703
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,120
Speaker 1: here's the thing. It happened, We discussed it, we made up,

704
00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 1: we hugged it out, and we're still friends to this day.

705
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,359
Speaker 1: And sometimes people need a chance to say I'm sorry

706
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 1: for a manifest dasture, to say I'm sorry. It's huge.

707
00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:13,920
Speaker 1: But that's why I don't like to talk about it

708
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 1: because people get too crazy. Is that the scene with

709
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 1: the ice? Yeah? Remember that? That feel like that would

710
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,359
Speaker 1: be so uncomfortable, I know. And you know you can't

711
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 1: just do it one time. You gotta do it multiple

712
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,080
Speaker 1: times in the room with a bunch of people and

713
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:29,000
Speaker 1: then everybody sees it forever too. Yeah. And that role

714
00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: that they played, right, it just seems so perfect, like

715
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: she was just so perfect for that. Just so the

716
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: head just sounds like crazy to me because it felt

717
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,839
Speaker 1: like that they were made for those roles. She's good actress. Yeah,

718
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 1: all right, now let's talk about another role. Oh, Marion.

00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: Here's what he had to say. I just met him

725
00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:01,520
Speaker 1: for the first time, and he seems like a cool dude,

00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,320
Speaker 1: that right? You've got it. That's a title. It is

759
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: a long title, and I can tell you what it

760
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: means very shortly. I'm the top communicator at the US

761
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: Department of Health and Human Services. This is the department

762
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 1: that is responsible for enhancing the health and well being

763
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 1: of all Americans and also strengthening supports for children and families.

764
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 1: So we are ninety thousand people strong in terms of employees,

765
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,440
Speaker 1: and we have a nearly three trillion dollar budget. So

766
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: and you're the top communicator. Yeah. So I lead the

767
00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:09,400
Speaker 1: Office of the Assistant Secretary Republic Affairs. We have eighty employees.

768
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:14,719
Speaker 1: We have several divisions, Broadcast Division, Freedom of Information Act,

769
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 1: Office Press, social Media, speech writing, and we do it all.

770
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 1: But we are the top communications department at the at

771
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 1: the department. We oversee all of the communications departments at

772
00:39:26,200 --> 00:39:29,920
Speaker 1: the agency. So Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the

773
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 1: Food and Drug Administration got them a lot. Yeah. Okay,

774
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 1: Now at the Department of Health and Human Services right now, right, yeah,

775
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: what is going on? Are we still in a pandemic?

776
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: So COVID is not disrupting our lives the way it was,

777
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 1: And that's because the Biden Harris administration has made a

778
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 1: concerted effort to make sure vaccines, tests and treatments are

779
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:56,880
Speaker 1: widely available, including and underserved communities so we can live

780
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 1: our daily lives. Now, is COVID still with us? Yes,

781
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,640
Speaker 1: about I think two hundred and fifty people die a day.

782
00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:05,520
Speaker 1: And then with these variants that keep on changing, some

783
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,239
Speaker 1: people will be like, oh, I'm glad I never got

784
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: the vaccination because now it's different. And then they're saying

785
00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: this is not effective against this. I just want you

786
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 1: to break all of that down. Then there's also new

787
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 1: vaccinations that come and they're like, this one's outdated. So

788
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: the latest vaccine is the updated COVID vaccine. You may

789
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: hear it referred to as the bivalent vaccine or the

790
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 1: bivalent booster. We call it the updated COVID vaccine that

791
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 1: will give you the highest level of protection against the

792
00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 1: latest variants. We're still monitoring COVID to see what, if

793
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: any new variants we need to be worried about. But

794
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: right now, as long as you have that updated COVID vaccine,

795
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:46,760
Speaker 1: you're gonna greatly reduce your risk of severe illness, hospitalization,

796
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 1: and death. And among those who get COVID, if you're vaccinated,

797
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,240
Speaker 1: you're less likely to get the symptoms related to long COVID.

798
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,319
Speaker 1: Now it is come into a close of women's history mind.

799
00:40:57,760 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 1: So I want to make sure we do celebrate and

800
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 1: I know you have some women that you want to

801
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,400
Speaker 1: make sure that you honor. Yeah, And I have to

802
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: back up a bit, so I told you I lead

803
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 1: the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs at

804
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,760
Speaker 1: the US Department of Health and Human Services. A mouthful,

805
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: and we're running a campaign right now featuring women health

806
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,840
Speaker 1: professionals who played a key role during the pandemic. And

807
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: one of them is a New York City nurse. Her

808
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 1: name is Sandra Lindsay. She was the first person, after

809
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: the clinical trials to get the COVID vaccine here in

810
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,839
Speaker 1: New York City. She's in conversation, so we have an

811
00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:34,240
Speaker 1: ad with her and doctor Kizmikia Corbett and doctor Kizmikia Corbett.

812
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: She's at Harvard now, but she was at the National

813
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 1: Institutes of Health. Have you talked her before. I've seen

814
00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,479
Speaker 1: her on the news, Yeah, And doctor Fauci talks about

815
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: her a lot. So you know, there was some hesitancy

816
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 1: and several communities when it came to the vaccines, including

817
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: the black community. And one of the things we were

818
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 1: telling people, which is true, is a black person helped

819
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 1: create the vaccine. And the person we were talking about

820
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 1: is doctor Kizmikia Corbett, so she's in an ad. We

821
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:01,200
Speaker 1: also have doctor Aidas Stewart, who a family physician. She's

822
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,840
Speaker 1: actually the chair of the American Academy, a family physician.

823
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 1: She didn't get her medical degree until she was forty.

824
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: Wow that and she talks about Yeah, she talks about

825
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,360
Speaker 1: the kids that she was working with as a resident.

826
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,080
Speaker 1: She's now they're a doctor now that they're in their teens,

827
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: and she's really about closing gaps in her community. We

828
00:42:19,239 --> 00:42:23,919
Speaker 1: also have doctor Moira Salagi. She's a pediatrician. She thought

829
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 1: she was going to be an intercrinologist, but she was

830
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,960
Speaker 1: talking to a kid one day and it made her

831
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: realize that her true calling was to be a pediatrician.

832
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,440
Speaker 1: And then, last but not LEAs. Another one of our

833
00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: very own is doctor NAMANJ. Bumpus, who's the chief scientist

834
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:41,560
Speaker 1: at the US Food and Drug Administration. She's the second

835
00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,359
Speaker 1: black person in the role. She had her own lab

836
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 1: at Johns Hopkins. Nice and so we have a lot

837
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,760
Speaker 1: of glass ceiling breakers in this campaign that we're running.

838
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: And I told you our slogan is we can do this.

839
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,319
Speaker 1: So our slogan for this particular campaign is women can

840
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 1: do this. So all right, and I love the fact that,

841
00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 1: By the way, I just want to point out that

842
00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: Kamara Jones did not need not one note to be

843
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: now what she was talking. I wonder when she memorized

844
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,200

Speaker 1: This is like your second home. Yeah, this is nice

866
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: stamping grounds. But I'm actually here to do something at

00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 1: Pencil Louis College and I'm working with PEPSI on this,

868
00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:23,200
Speaker 1: and so it's just really celebrating the students here, showing

869
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,960
Speaker 1: support for them, and also showing support for the work

870
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:28,719
Speaker 1: and their futures and the design industry. You know that

871
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 1: I've been doing a lot in Detroit and investing in

872
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:34,320
Speaker 1: the city for years and so design. I think just

873
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 1: just seeing these kids developing their own eye for design

874
00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: is also really important. And I want to see some

875
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 1: of the creative designs that the students are going to

876
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:45,840
Speaker 1: be showcasing. So that's what we're here for. Yeah, I'm excited.

877
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see everything. Yeah. And what I

878
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 1: love about this too, this is the only HBCU in Michigan. Yeah,

879
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:55,720
Speaker 1: I'm excited about that too. I didn't know that Michigan

880
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: didn't have any HBCUs, but they're not a lot across

881
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: the country, so it's not surprising. Yeah, and this is,

882
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,759
Speaker 1: by the way, also the only arts focused HBCU in

883
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 1: the United States. Oh that's major. I didn't know that

884
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 1: I want to HBCU. I went to Morgan State University

885
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,439
Speaker 1: in Baltimore. But that's super impressive though. Yeah. So that's

886
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 1: Pencil Louis College of Business and Design and so and

887
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 1: I'm looking at their website doing a deep dive, and

888
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 1: you know what their mission is. They said, we exist

889
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: to lead and empower the progressive creative to create a

890
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:27,200
Speaker 1: better individual and collective future. So, yes, it's the nation's

891
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: first ever reinstated HBCU. A lot of first going on here. Yeah,

892
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:32,960

927
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,839
Speaker 1: whole documentary. Yeah, we watched it on All Black. We did.

928
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 1: So congratulations on getting that done. Thank you really entertaining yea,

929
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:15,839
Speaker 1: thank you. I was like, but I also understood why

930
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: Razby might have had some issues, okay, you know, because

931
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,320
Speaker 1: there were things on there, and like it feels like

932
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,960
Speaker 1: you had a lot of patience with him, but sometimes

933
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 1: it would wear thin. But it feels like he goes

934
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,759
Speaker 1: through a lot. He does, you know, outside of there

935
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 1: he does and he has and you know, this was

936
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,879
Speaker 1: just a peek into some of the issues that we're

937
00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: going on, you know what I mean that we were

938
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 1: able to capture, But it was so much going on

939
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:44,040
Speaker 1: on that tour and that experience, and you know why

940
00:47:44,040 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 1: it was really important for me to share that, It's

941
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:49,839
Speaker 1: because I've never shared my perspective you know, or gave

942
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 1: my insight to you know, why things are the way

943
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 1: that they have been. And then we get to see

944
00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: you setting boundaries for yourself too, which is important for people.

945
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 1: Right And even there's one scene with Pleasure Pe and

946
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,360
Speaker 1: he's like trying to come in and he got really upset.

947
00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,359
Speaker 1: Yeah that you were like, okay, you know, not right now,

948
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: Like I'm trying to get ready. I need to have

949
00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 1: myself set up in a certain way. And then you

950
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:17,240
Speaker 1: guys obviously were cool again after that. Yeah, like everybody

951
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: fighting them makes up and then I feel like that's

952
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 1: a guy thing. I kind of like that about guys. Yeah, well,

953
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 1: you know, that particular situation was I was just coming

954
00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:29,320
Speaker 1: off stage, and usually when I'm coming off stage, you know,

955
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 1: there is like a high you know that I'm that

956
00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 1: I'm going through. I just performed for an hour. You know,

957
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:36,359
Speaker 1: I'm huffing and puffing the whole time. So I need

958
00:48:36,719 --> 00:48:39,080
Speaker 1: time to just sit with myself and bring myself down.

959
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,440
Speaker 1: And you know, he has kind of a sort of

960
00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 1: open door policy, you know for people that you know,

961
00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 1: he just leaves his door over. And that's not really

962
00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: my style, you know what I'm saying, And her friend. Yeah, yeah,

963
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:55,239
Speaker 1: unless it's swinging or some some other pretty women that

964
00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 1: are Actually if they I'm just saying, if they see

965
00:48:58,000 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 1: me huffing and puffling, they might hand me a chill.

966
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,560
Speaker 1: They're not gonna be asking me about business or whatever.

967
00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:05,920
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. But it was cool that

968
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 1: we were able to get past that. You know what

969
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:11,120
Speaker 1: I'm saying, another truth bomb, you know what I mean that.

970
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 1: You know, when you're showing up in certain spaces, everybody

971
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,879
Speaker 1: you know might not agree and or respect, and it's

972
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:21,720
Speaker 1: really important that you create that sense of peace for yourself,

973
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: especially when we're talking about, you know, delivering a performance.

974
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:27,440
Speaker 1: Did any of your group members have any issues with

975
00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:31,279
Speaker 1: the documentary? Hell yeah, I remember posted right away. Yeah,

976
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 1: he felt it was his trauma that was on there

977
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:36,000
Speaker 1: and we got to see it play out right with

978
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:38,440
Speaker 1: Jay Bug where he had the T shirt made that

979
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 1: said I don't feel safe yea, and people didn't understand

980
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,799
Speaker 1: what Rasby was upset at about the time. I did

981
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 1: think that was very malicious. I didn't like that. Well,

982
00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:49,759
Speaker 1: you know, the truth is stranger than fiction sometimes, you know,

983
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:53,560
Speaker 1: and it's deeper than even you know, what is always

984
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 1: displayed you know what I mean, because it has to

985
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,839
Speaker 1: do with people's psychology and how they see things. It's

986
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 1: never been my position to you know, exploit people's pain,

987
00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 1: but to tell the truth. You know, sometimes you know,

988
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:10,400
Speaker 1: just people off. You know, the truth cuts both ways

989
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 1: in that in that aspect. So what is your definition

990
00:50:12,960 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 1: of unbothered because you, i mean obviously have a book

991
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,319
Speaker 1: and everyone you know, like everyone calls you unbothered. Yeah,

992
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,399
Speaker 1: it's not that you don't address things, because you would

993
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:22,720
Speaker 1: like to make that clear because people were like, he's unbothered,

994
00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:24,800
Speaker 1: why would he do this? Then? Yeah, but that's not

995
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:30,200
Speaker 1: the definition. Yeah. So, so being unbothered is is taking

996
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 1: the stands to maintain your own personal power. You know,

997
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 1: the outside world a lot of the time, you know,

998
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 1: can pull you out of that, you know what I mean.

999
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,520
Speaker 1: And you know a lot of people react to life,

1000
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:46,080
Speaker 1: but being unbothered is about being thoughtful and responding instead

1001
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 1: of reacting. So being unbothered is just about maintaining your

1002
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 1: own personal power. And I feel like you were very

1003
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 1: calculating as far as knowing that you were going to

1004
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:57,120
Speaker 1: have this documentary because it's tour was years ago, right,

1005
00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,440
Speaker 1: and so knowing all the time that you have this

1006
00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: footage and people might be saying things, but you're like

1007
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:05,640
Speaker 1: they're about to see Yeah, yeah, because the best way

1008
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:07,480
Speaker 1: is to show people, you know what I mean. And

1009
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: I could have done a gazillion interviews, but I've done

1010
00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 1: that before, and it's always been picking apart or why

1011
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 1: are you doing this? Or why are you doing that?

1012
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 1: But when you see the footage, ain't no lying about that,

1013
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: ain't no lying about the footy, ain't got the footy show?

1014
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 1: You know how to get your ex bandmates mad? Like? No,

1015
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:32,479
Speaker 1: you know, no, I've never I've never intentionally gone after

1016
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,520
Speaker 1: them in any way, you know. I personally feel like

1017
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:37,680
Speaker 1: the reason why it was important for me to have

1018
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 1: this documentary is because it's just piled up all over time.

1019
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:43,800
Speaker 1: I remember when B two K first broke up, I

1020
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 1: received more of the backlash than anyone, you know, because

1021
00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:51,200
Speaker 1: I proceeded to move forward, and that looked like I

1022
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 1: was leaving them behind and have a hit after hit out.

1023
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:57,520
Speaker 1: Yeah that's what I'm saying. Help, So that looked like, oh, Marion,

1024
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 1: don't really care when that was not the case. Kicked

1025
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,600
Speaker 1: you out of the group, I mean essentially, Yeah, So

1026
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 1: because and the people, right, I know, they said that

1027
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:07,799
Speaker 1: you're not in B two K and you can't use it, right, Yeah,

1028
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:09,879
Speaker 1: that's what I'm saying. So it was due. How could

1029
00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 1: that even had well, I mean, because the business was

1030
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:15,320
Speaker 1: so convoluted, you know what I mean, and it was

1031
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 1: really just not being managed properly, you know, and us

1032
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:21,360
Speaker 1: being kids. It was just a lot of confusion, you

1033
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,640
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So it was like, really, more

1034
00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 1: than anything, we were being separated. It was like, okay, na,

1035
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:28,759
Speaker 1: y'all go over there, since y'all want to do your

1036
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,759
Speaker 1: own business, which really, in hindsight, it was nothing wrong

1037
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:33,360
Speaker 1: with that, you know what I mean, But that's not

1038
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,960
Speaker 1: how they made us feel. They essentially kind of pit

1039
00:52:36,080 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 1: us against each other, you know what I mean. And

1040
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,120
Speaker 1: I remember, you know, I talk about this in the document.

1041
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 1: I remember seeing like hearing on the radio station in

1042
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 1: LA and I'm like, yeah, you know, talking about like, yeah,

1043
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 1: well we're looking for a new lead singer. And I

1044
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,840
Speaker 1: was just offended. I was completely like, for real, like,

1045
00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,760
Speaker 1: y'all really don't have no respect for me? Okay, cool,

1046
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:59,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it pushing. So just that that energy

1047
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,400
Speaker 1: alone and not being able to be like yo, you

1048
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like y'all doing your thing, Like, oh,

1049
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:04,880
Speaker 1: if you decided you want to stay over this all,

1050
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:06,319
Speaker 1: good man, do your thing, you know what I mean.

1051
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 1: Like it was not that it was very tumultuous, you

1052
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:11,400
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. That was a gift and the

1053
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,080
Speaker 1: curse it was. But you know, this whole life, this

1054
00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:16,200
Speaker 1: whole life can be looked at it as that way,

1055
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, because we go through certain

1056
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,719
Speaker 1: things in life that you know, needs to show us

1057
00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:23,200
Speaker 1: things about who we are and how we set boundaries

1058
00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:25,759
Speaker 1: for ourselves and see you know, growing up in front

1059
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 1: of the public eyed people would never truly you know,

1060
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,160
Speaker 1: understanding unless they're in that position how that feels all

1061
00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:33,160
Speaker 1: the time. And it's like the way to the world,

1062
00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So for me to be

1063
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:38,239
Speaker 1: able to speak my piece through this documentary has really

1064
00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,440
Speaker 1: freed up a lot of you know, my experience that

1065
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: I felt was adverse, you know, going back down fifteen

1066
00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,840
Speaker 1: years later, performing with people, not being around people and

1067
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,439
Speaker 1: seeing like, oh, a lot of these issues really don't

1068
00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:53,640
Speaker 1: even come from us, you know, they come from outside

1069
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:57,279
Speaker 1: people and just realizing that it's like, oh, that's deep

1070
00:53:57,520 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 1: That's deep because seeing how you affect the fans, like

1071
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 1: when you see those women going crazy crying and the

1072
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:07,200
Speaker 1: fans feeling like, oh, Marian is holding that up. You

1073
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,319
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like that was that didn't feel good?

1074
00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:11,719
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. I didn't really always feel

1075
00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 1: like I was able to, you know, expand the way

1076
00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 1: that I wanted to expand as some other artists that

1077
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,680
Speaker 1: were in groups. All right, well a Marian is here,

1078
00:54:20,719 --> 00:54:22,319
Speaker 1: we got somewhere with him when we come back. It's

1079
00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:27,359
Speaker 1: where you up with Angela Yee and what's up? It's

1080
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 1: where up with Angela Yee? And oh Marian is here,

1085
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:45,840
Speaker 1: We got a lot, a lot of good things, you know.

1086
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:49,320
Speaker 1: Is this album done? Yeah? Album is done in the canon.

1087

1088
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 1: Sonic Book two this year as well. So y'all gonna

1089
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,960
Speaker 1: be getting a lot of you know, slaps from Mariya

1090
00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: Full Circle because it's an oh, you know, my whole experience.

1091
00:55:04,719 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's a full circle moment. You know, the

1092
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,320
Speaker 1: documentary is a full circle moment for me. You know,

1093
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:12,400
Speaker 1: all of the people that I've worked with, you know

1094
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,200
Speaker 1: that are coming back into my space. You know, life

1095
00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:17,840
Speaker 1: is funny. Like I did not want to do the

1096
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:21,320
Speaker 1: Millennium Tour, but it was one of the best things

1097
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:24,239
Speaker 1: that I've ever could have done, you know, because I

1098
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,360
Speaker 1: was able to go back to, you know, young on Marian.

1099
00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:30,200
Speaker 1: I was able to go back to and see like, oh,

1100
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:33,400
Speaker 1: this is what this was that feeling, you know, and

1101
00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:36,520
Speaker 1: a lot of artists don't get that opportunity, and it

1102
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:40,160
Speaker 1: ended up being EO Marian Tour really yo, and you

1103
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 1: know what that that was such a blessing because like

1104
00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,440
Speaker 1: for real, for real, my team had to like really

1105
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 1: set me down and be like yo, oh you're singing

1106
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:51,080
Speaker 1: all these songs, these records as yours because of my

1107
00:55:51,200 --> 00:55:53,400
Speaker 1: experience would be two K. I didn't want to deal

1108
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:54,960
Speaker 1: with that, you know what I mean, And I needed to.

1109
00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:57,439
Speaker 1: I needed to be reminded of all the hard work

1110
00:55:57,520 --> 00:55:59,840
Speaker 1: that I did, everything you know that I put in

1111
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,120
Speaker 1: because a lot of people don't understand this about artists.

1112
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 1: But you know, all of our experience is not great,

1113
00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,000
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So what you share with

1114
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 1: this particular album or this particular song, you know, might

1115
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:12,600
Speaker 1: have been paying for us and a way to release

1116
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:16,200
Speaker 1: you know, our creativity, to get ourselves on a new level,

1117
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But even with all of

1118
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,279
Speaker 1: the adverse experiences, it was it was a It was

1119
00:56:21,320 --> 00:56:23,400
Speaker 1: a major lesson and there was a lot of information

1120
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 1: that I needed to receive and pat myself on the

1121
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,000
Speaker 1: back for all my hard work with going on that tour,

1122
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 1: and I'm so glad that I did it. Break it

1123
00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:32,239
Speaker 1: down for me, how did that happen though, because we

1124
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: saw in the documentary it was B two K and

1125
00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 1: then Rasby ended up getting kicked off the tour, and

1126
00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 1: we saw that happen, But then how did it end

1127
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,760
Speaker 1: up just being you? You know, we kept the Millennium

1128
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,439
Speaker 1: Tour brand very much so like the Scream Tour brand

1129
00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:48,680
Speaker 1: alive after we transition from the first Millennium Tour that

1130
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 1: was with the group and obviously we weren't moving on,

1131
00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:55,600
Speaker 1: you know together as a group. It became me and friends,

1132
00:56:56,280 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 1: So we kept that business going after the last Millennium

1133
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:04,640
Speaker 1: tour though, um I wasn't on the last Millennium tour,

1134
00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,520
Speaker 1: so yeah, we transition into another tour series. But yeah,

1135
00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:11,960
Speaker 1: we kept it going because history has shown us, you

1136
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:14,760
Speaker 1: know what I mean, has shown me and those fans

1137
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:18,320
Speaker 1: are all those two thousand classics, that there's an actual

1138
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 1: market for it clearly. So yeah, yeah, so we have

1139
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 1: to keep that going. Would you ever be open to

1140
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 1: Obviously they don't get your members, don't group members, don't

1141
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 1: have your number anymore, but would you ever be open to,

1142
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:33,360
Speaker 1: you know, doing a project or revisiting I know you

1143
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:36,520
Speaker 1: get asked it all the time, this question for the fans. Yeah,

1144
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:38,720
Speaker 1: I mean I think anything is possible. You know, I'm

1145
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:41,600
Speaker 1: obviously focusing on myself right now, you know what I mean.

1146
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 1: But I would say anything is possible. That's fair enough.

1147
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:49,000
Speaker 1: And then in terms of R and B male singers,

1148
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 1: who would you put on your Mount Rushmore? And you

Speaker 1: administer in our can for people to get that more stremely.

1207
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 1: But I just think it's really important for people to

1208
01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:58,960
Speaker 1: know that we need to start having training on how

1209
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:01,760
Speaker 1: to do this and how to store it, because I

1210
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 1: heard you guys telling how you will buy them and

1211
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:06,680
Speaker 1: keep them in your card for people, which ideally is

1212
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,520
Speaker 1: a good idea of fund not saying it's something that

1213
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:12,160
Speaker 1: you have to have at a certain temperature, so if

1214
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:14,680
Speaker 1: it's not kept at a certain temperature, it won't be

1215
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:19,000
Speaker 1: as effectively administered to people. So I think we definitely

1216
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 1: need to start looking into trainings and how to properly

1217
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: use it. That's it. It's chucker out, Emerald emodual card,
