What we're talking about, Well, let's let's talk 69 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: about baseball and coronavirus. What's happening there. We'll tell you 70 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: about the album break that has caused them to postpone 71 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: three games. All right, we'll get to that next. Keep 72 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: it Lockers the Breakfast Club, Good morning morning. Everybody is 73 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We all the 74 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news were 75 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: starting you. Well, let's start with this. At least fourteen 76 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: players and coaches on the Miami Marlins tested positive for 77 00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. So Major League Baseball has to postpone three games, 78 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: and now they are raising questions about holding this season 79 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: even though there is a pandemic going on. Here is 80 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred was their discussion questions 81 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: about the possibility of this season being, if not canceled, 82 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: put on a hiatus. No, there really wasn't we built 83 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: protocols anticipating positive tests at some point during the season. 84 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 1: That the protocols were built in order to allow us 85 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: to continue to play through those positives. And I think 86 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 1: there was support of the notion that the protocols are 87 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: adiquette to keep our players safe. Yeah, I don't see 88 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,839 Speaker 1: how to contained that for a whole season. They're gonna 89 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: be traveling. It's a lot more personnel in baseball. It's 90 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: not like they can put themselves in a bump in 91 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 1: one location like basketball players. I don't know how he 92 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: contained it right because there are no fans at the games. 93 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: They've banned high fives, there's no fist bumps, and there's 94 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: no spitting amongst the players now here. As a commissioner 95 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: talking about what's going to happen. Moving forward, weard with 96 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: testing and protocols. We have improved the testing. There was 97 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: a timeliness issue early on. We've completely eliminated the problem 98 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: of having pending tests that people were talking about. If 99 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: that applies across the board in terms of the protocol. 100 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: It is an evolving situation. We continue to look at them. 101 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 1: We're looking at them again today to see whether there's 102 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: anything that we've learned from this situation that might cause 103 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: us to make alterations. Hey man, I'm not a baseball fan. 104 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: I'll tell y'all all the time, and telling y'all for 105 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 1: a year. I like baseball better when everybody was on steroids. 106 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: That's when the sport was at best. Okay, right now, 107 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: I don't, I'm not. I'm not missing baseball. I was 108 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: watching miss countdown. I was watching the NBA countdown last night, saying, 109 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 1: this is why I love basketball. Basketball, So it's so amazing, 110 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: you know, it was such a great sport. The fact 111 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 1: that it can even be contained in a bubble is amazing. 112 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: How out the crowd though, Because I haven't seen any 113 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: games yet and I was without the crowd, it look 114 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: regular to me. I mean, I'm not gonna say it 115 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: looks regular. Regular is not the word. It definitely looks different. 116 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: But I'm I'm paying attention to the action on the 117 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 1: court and think about it. Man, we live in a 118 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: different era. We live in a social media era. The 119 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 1: crowd is on social media. You know what I'm saying. 120 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: I enjoy it well. In the White House, Donald Trump's 121 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: National security advisor, Rabbit O'Brien has tested positive for coronavirus, 122 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 1: according to sources, So the White House declined to immediately comment. 123 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: We don't know whether or not they're going to have 124 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: to quarantine. But the University of Notre Dame announced that 125 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: they will withdraw from hosting the first presidential debate that 126 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: was supposed to happen September twenty ninth. Now that will 127 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: take place at Western Reserve University in Cleveland, according to 128 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: a statement that they made. The president of the university, 129 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: Father John Jenkins, said that he made what he called 130 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: this difficult decision because the necessary health precautions would have 131 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 1: greatly diminished the educational value of hosting the debate on 132 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: our campus. So unfortunately, even though they would have liked 133 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: to host that debate, they won't. I wonder why they 134 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: couldn't host the debate like that. Seems like a very 135 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: easy thing to be able to socially distansion. He's got 136 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: two candidates. I'm sure the security around somewhere. It's not 137 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: like the moderator is right next to the people like that. 138 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: Seems like it can be a very easy thing, the 139 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: socially distanced that. And we were talking about these stimulus 140 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: checks in this next round. While Mitch McConnell has unveiled 141 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: the Heels Act, the Republican Heels Act to address the 142 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: coronavirus pandemic, there's another round of twelve hundred dollars stimulus 143 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: checks on the way. According to McConnell, this bill is 144 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: expected to cost about one trillion dollars. It gives a 145 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: liability shield to businesses and funds to schools, and it 146 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: caps at seventy percent of pre pandemic pay That is 147 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: the unemployment insurance supplement that lapsed last week. So this 148 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: time the stimulus checks will include extra cast for people 149 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: with adult dependence and if you have an adult or 150 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: child that's depending on you, you qualify for a five 151 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: hundred dollars payments. So if you earn up to seventy 152 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars, you get the full twelve hundred, but 153 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: if you earn more than that, you'll get smaller amounts, 154 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: and people who earn over ninety nine thousand dollars again 155 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: won't get any money. All right, People out there with 156 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: their phones turned off and the only way they can 157 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: communicate is by doing FaceTime audio if they got wildfi somewhere. So, yes, 158 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 1: stimulus checks need to be out, all right, Well that's 159 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: front page news. Get it off your chests.

These kids 190 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 1: out here are going to go through coronavirus just like adults, 191 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 1: and they're willing is to sign a waiver, a liability 192 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: waiver that said they won't hold a school board liable 193 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: if their children get sick, name or even die for coronavirus. 194 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: Heard about that the school system is not the daycare center. 195 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: That's your responsibility to take care of your own kids 196 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: and keep your kids safe. And the more I hear 197 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 1: that they petitioned these school boys, they're stupid. Yeah, well, 198 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I'm not bringing my kids 199 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: to so I'm not taking my kids at school. But 200 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that have to work and 201 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: feel like if they have to work, they need their 202 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: kids to get an education, so they're willing to put 203 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: their school their kids back in school. You can't be 204 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: mad at that. But that's when the parents need to 205 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: come together and we need to find a way that 206 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: we can keep each other's kids. Where as the grandma's 207 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: where the auntie's worth the cousins not expect the school 208 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: to do it. Yeah, it's such a tough position to 209 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: be in. Um. I think what makes it really bad 210 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: and heartbreaking is having to sign away that says I'm 211 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: fine if something happens to my child, if my child dies, 212 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: and something like that. That right there, I couldn't even matter. Yeah. Never, 213 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: I'm a mom and I would never say, hey, let 214 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,079 Speaker 1: my child die so they can go to schools. To me, 215 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 1: that is the craziest, don't I don't think that's what 216 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: that letters says. I think the letters just the school 217 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: is just not taking responsibility there. You know, I don't 218 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: think the school is gonna try to kill a kid. 219 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna do everything possible. But when parents 220 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: go in and out, back, back and forth to work, 221 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: a parent could bring that to their child, you know. 222 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: But you know, some people don't have the luxury of 223 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: having grandparents and aunties around, so they you know, that 224 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: they stuck and they have to do what they have 225 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: to do. You know, I'm not taking my kids to school, 226 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: but some parents don't have that choice that Some parents 227 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: feel like it's okay and they're gonna you know, they 228 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: want their kids to get the education right, and they 229 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: are telling you you don't have to send your kids 230 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 1: to school. Right, you have the choice to say yes 231 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: or no. Yeah, that's the only said no.

What are we gonna do. Yeah. I 302 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: can't imagine no parents choosing their job over the well 303 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: being up their kids, because you're going to work to 304 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: feed those kids.

Good morning, the Breakfast Club. 341 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: She's filling the team. This is the Ruble Report with 342 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, it looks like 343 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: congratulations are in order for Drakey yet again. He has 344 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:19,880 Speaker 1: broke another record. He's surpassed Madonna for the most top 345 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: ten hits and Hot one hundred history. So he just 346 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: got his thirty ninth and fortieth top ten hits. That's 347 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: for being featured on DJ Khalid's latest singles, pop Star, 348 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 1: and also Greece, which opened that numbers thirty and number 349 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: eight in the Billboard Hot one hundred. Welcongratulate gradulated hit 350 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,280 Speaker 1: the Aubrey Go Yes. So right below him, Madonna has 351 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,479 Speaker 1: thirty eight, then the Beatles thirty four, Rihanna thirty one, 352 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 1: Michael Jackson thirty, Mariah twenty eight, and Stevie Wonder twenty eight, 353 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: but he has forty. All right, Yeah, I have a 354 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: feeling that Rihanna's gonna break that record if and when 355 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: she decided to ever put out another. All right, now, 356 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,479 Speaker 1: Ellen DeGeneres the show her workplace is under investigation by 357 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: Warner Media. We've been hearing a lot of things about 358 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: Ellen Degenerous and how she's not the nicest person behind 359 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: the scenes. You know, She's been called out by a 360 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: few different people on Twitter and other people in the 361 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: past have said, including comedian Kevin Porter, said that she 362 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: was one of the meanest people alive, and he did 363 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: a whole viral Twitter thread encouraging anybody who encountered her 364 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: to come up and respond about their insane stories, and 365 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 1: people definitely did. There were thousands of replies. A new 366 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,679 Speaker 1: staff member was told every day she picked someone different 367 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: to really hate. It's not your fault. Just suck it 368 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: up for the day, and she'll be mean to someone 369 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: else the next day. And that new stafford said they 370 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: didn't believe it at first, but it did end up 371 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: being entirely true. So now they're investigating for a workplace hostility. 372 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: And you know, they said, this totally goes against the 373 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: message that she recites at the end of every show, 374 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: be kind to one another. I wonder what exactly did 375 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: they call me? Because tough doesn't always equate the mean, 376 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 1: and I've seen a lot of women who get called mean. No, 377 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 1: there's a difference between to me, would just be getting called, 378 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: you know, a boss. It's not. It's a difference between 379 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: tough and mean. And but that's why I asked, I 380 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: wonder what they call me? Like, what did they call me? 381 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: And I think there's if there's enough people saying it, 382 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 1: and not even just people at her staff, but you know, 383 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: there's stories about her going to restaurants and complaining about 384 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: a person's nails that was serving them, and just you know, 385 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: all kinds of weird things. I mean, that's you, Charlot Mane, 386 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 1: you worked. She tough or mean or neither? Um, I 387 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:34,000 Speaker 1: would say she was tough, Okay. Wendy was a perfectionist. 388 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 1: She she operated on a high level, and she wanted 389 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: that from everyone around her. So as certain things that 390 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure some people would consider mean, you know, yelling, screaming, 391 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: cursing at people, but I just considered it tough. She 392 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,640 Speaker 1: was meaning the guests for sure, though, like a celebrities 393 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,239 Speaker 1: came on the show. But but those of us who 394 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 1: worked for her, I would say, just tough. Asked me, 395 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: asked me, was miss Jones used to work for Miss Jones? Correct? 396 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: Was Miss Jones mean a tough? See? Both she was 397 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 1: mean and she was tough. She was both, Okay, both. 398 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,160 Speaker 1: I want to say both my aunts. To see, it's 399 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 1: hard for me to call Wendy mean. No, because hurt people. 400 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 1: Hurt people, you know what I'm saying. And when I 401 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: look back on this situation and what he was going 402 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 1: through and everything she had to endure, you know, in 403 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: her married life. I can understand why she would. She 404 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: would possibly be seen as coming off mean to certain people. Yeah, 405 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 1: well she would when it came to people who worked 406 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: with her. She was tough. When he came to those 407 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: guests who came on the show and other celebrities that 408 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 1: she was talking about me, Yeah, well, miss Jones was both. 409 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: She was both. She I mean, it made me tougher, 410 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: but she was both mean and tough. She didn't play 411 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 1: about her ish. All right, Well, Oprah's coming back to 412 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: television since we're talking about TV, so she's going to 413 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: be doing her own show now and it's going to 414 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 1: be taking on a racism. It's a new TV discussion 415 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: series for Apple TV, The Oprah Conversation, with debuts July thirtieth, 416 00:21:56,359 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: and it's basically talking with white people about racism and 417 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: bringing humanity back to the conversation according to Oprah. Okay, yeah, 418 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 1: so I'm sure a lot of people will have missed 419 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 1: her having her own daytime talk show. But her magazine, Oh, 420 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,600 Speaker 1: the Oprah Magazine is actually not going to be available 421 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 1: in print anymore. They said they're going digital. So that's 422 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: the brand celebrating twenty years of Oh, they're thinking about 423 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: what's next. They said, the partnership and the brand are 424 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: not going away. It's a natural next step for the brand. 425 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: It'll be more digitally centric. Okay for all the Oprah 426 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: fans out there, And you know, I just wanted to 427 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: bring this up since we've been talking about what's happening 428 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: with schools and people having to sign a waiver to 429 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: send their kids to school. Emirates the airline has a 430 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: new strategy. They need some passengers to get on their 431 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: flights in the midst of this pandemic. You know, they 432 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: are only operating at ten percent right now. So what 433 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: they've decided to do is they're going to cover medical expenses, 434 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,239 Speaker 1: pay for quarantine costs and hotel rooms, everything for up 435 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: to two weeks, and if the worst happens, if you 436 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 1: happen to die, they'll also pay for your funeral.

Another round of those can 459 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: be expected. They said it will costs about one trillion 460 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: dollars and they'll also be giving a liability shill to 461 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: businesses and funds to schools. It caps at seventy percent 462 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: of pre pandemic pay. That is the federal unemployment insurance 463 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: supplement that lapsed last week.

So according 486 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 1: to Maderna, the trial is to be conducted at nearly 487 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: one hundred US research sites and will enroll about thirty 488 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: thousand adult volunteers. That evaluates the safety of course of 489 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: the Maderna vaccine and whether it can prevent symptomatic COVID 490 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: nineteen after two doses, among other outcomes. They said that 491 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: the side effects are minimal. It had mild side effects 492 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: like fatigue, chills, had ache, muscle pain and pain at 493 00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: the injection site. Well you first, okay, tell me about 494 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: it all right, now, enough of y'all go out there 495 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: and take it from me and mind don't have to okay, 496 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: do you think hi? And you know they're in phase three. 497 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,199 Speaker 1: Phase one isn't a small number of people and they 498 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 1: see if it's safe. Then in phase two they expand 499 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 1: the study and that vaccine is given to people who 500 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: have characteristics like AIDS and physical health. And now in 501 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: phase three, the vaccine is given to thousands of people 502 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: and tested for safety. So we said it's going to 503 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: be about thirty thousand people in this phase three trial. Well, 504 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, I thought, I've seen something in Atlanta where 505 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: they would have Phase four and they would interviewing a 506 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 1: woman last night on one of these shows, and they 507 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 1: would like, you know, she feels good, she feels like 508 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,399 Speaker 1: she's helping, but she didn't know if she got the 509 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: vaccine or the placebo. She wasn't sure. They don't tell 510 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: them so, but they were I think, well, this is 511 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: the first phase three study and development in the US 512 00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: of cod COVID nineteen vaccine, and now fires are also 513 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: as an experimental coronavirus vaccine, and they got the FDA 514 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: nod for advanced trials in the US as well. So 515 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 1: they said their vaccine is slightly different. It was it flavored. 516 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: It comes in flavors. They're also including up to thirty 517 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: thousand participants. But they said that THEIRS uses an experimental 518 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: approach that employs genetic material to stimulate an immune response 519 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: against a key part of the coronavirus. I know that 520 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: phase thing hasn't worked out too well. Okay, they had 521 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: phases to reopen the country. I think we all phase 522 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 1: nineteen in a lot of these places, and it doesn't 523 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: look too good. And it's still in that open New York, 524 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: New Jersey area. You still can't go inside to eat 525 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 1: in a restaurant yet, so it's still a little crazy. 526 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: I don't know nothing about phase one, phase two, phase three, 527 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: phase for it doesn't work is what I need to know. 528 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 1: All right, Clearly these phaces things ain't working all right. 529 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,920 Speaker 1: Staples is requiring all customers to wear masks, and their 530 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 1: stores and the Walmart will not enforce their rules on 531 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 1: wearing masks because they fear that the staff could be 532 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: attacked by shoppers who are angry that they're being challenged. 533 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: You know, people who try to come in the store 534 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 1: without a mask on and then they attack the employees there. 535 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 1: So they want to avoid physical confrontations. But staff members 536 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: have been instructed to still serve people who refuse to 537 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 1: wear one. Walmart cut the bus. Walmart can afford arm 538 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: security at the door. That's letting people know you can't 539 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 1: come in without a mask on. And ain't nobody gonna 540 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 1: beef with the armed security at the door. So knock 541 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:27,479 Speaker 1: it off. Don't even you don't even got to put 542 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,479 Speaker 1: your employees in that position. Walmart, okay, at don't make 543 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: me doing the Walmart of the billion dollar corporation. They 544 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: can afford to have armed security at the door, having 545 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: people reinforced, enforced the mask laws. So stop it, all right. 546 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: And Google is adopting their work from home until at 547 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:46,560 Speaker 1: least July of twenty twenty one. That's what a person 548 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 1: familiar with the matter is saying. Previously, they had said 549 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: their employees would be working remotely through the end of 550 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty but now that has been extended until July 551 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty one, and that was sent out in 552 00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: an email to employees. I think that's going to be 553 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: the new normal in a lot of places. I think 554 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: that a lot of these businesses have realized they don't 555 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: got to spend all this money on breaking mortar. It's 556 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of working from home from a 557 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: lot of these companies real soon. Abolutely. I read of 558 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: their buildings all together and just had like one office somewhere. 559 00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: All right, Well, that is your front page news.

Welcome, so welcome, thank you. I'm 566 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: happy here as usual. Well, congratulations first and foremost for 567 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 1: having a movie Tijuana Jackson. I know you've been talking 568 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: about this movie for such a long time. But you 569 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,719 Speaker 1: wrote it, directed it, starting it, edited it, did everything right, 570 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: That's right. I had to. Yeah, I believe did, and 571 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm glad that I did too. Why were you committed 572 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: to doing it yourself like that? Doing everything? Because the 573 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: characters raw, the characters, you know, the things that I 574 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: say on the YouTube channel kind of at some point 575 00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: got the whole channel demonetized. They stopped YouTube, stopped sending 576 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: out up because it was so controversial. And that's the yeah, 577 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: and there's this. I've been doing that character on YouTube 578 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: for at least twelve years, and that's the whole thing. 579 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: That The irony with Hollywood is what they'll do is 580 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 1: they'll tell you to tone down the language so that 581 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: they can you can reach a broader audience. But then 582 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: they'll turn around and say that because it's a black lead, 583 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: we can only distribute it to herb in America. So 584 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: there's like this contradiction of like watering down your product 585 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 1: to deliver your products to the people that you made 586 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 1: it for. So um, it was, it was. It was 587 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: important at least for me in this era of like 588 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: how digital plats, you know, all these different digital platforms 589 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: to try to at least take a shot at actual ownership. Well, 590 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: let's talk about to Tijuana Jackson for those who may 591 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: not have been watching the YouTube for the past twelve years, 592 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: like like, who is Tiouana Jackson? What's your vision for him? 593 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 1: My vision for him is this. I created the character 594 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: really because I wanted to. I want to educate a 595 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: demographic of people who were not afforded this education. They 596 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 1: grew up in the same hood that I grew up, 597 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: and grew up in the same community, the same dysfunction 598 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: I grew up in. Never learned about finance, never learned 599 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: about personal development, never learned about the preservation of wealth. 600 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm gonna use People look at 601 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: me and they're like, he's so romedy, so damned corny, 602 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: they won't listen to me. But if I created this 603 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 1: character who was funny and over and like this kind 604 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: of like overly abrasive, I felt like people would connect 605 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 1: better because they wouldn't really be judging me while listening 606 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: to it. And it just took off within like two 607 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: episodes online. The New York Times did a full write 608 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: up This is back in the day, and then people 609 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: started catching on. And then some dudes ripped one of 610 00:31:57,640 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: the videos and put it on World Saw. He thought 611 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: it was a real dude, and then that now TJ 612 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: gives some amazing advice. As we can see, he's a 613 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 1: motivational speaker, right, and the movie, I guess the way 614 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: the movie starts is he's in jail, he comes home, 615 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 1: and he decides what he wants to do in life 616 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: is be a motivational speaker and give advice to people. 617 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: But you have to figure out how to make money 618 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: from something like that. Now, who are some motivational speakers 619 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: right that have influenced you? Honest to God, can't tell 620 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: you one motivational speaker really et though. Eric Thomas, Eric Thomas, 621 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: the hip hop Preacher, Eric Thomas he's a great motivational 622 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: speaking speaker. No, no, he is, and he's got his 623 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: own style. I don't I don't know if anybody can 624 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: be a motivational speaker, but I do know that there's 625 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: a lot of gurus out there that are hilarious and 626 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: like self proclaimed guru. And Thatfork inspired the whole character 627 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 1: was the fact that, like Yo, it's almost as if 628 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 1: you've got like the most dysfunctional people in the world 629 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: given advice to people. And I was like the different 630 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to take advantage of that because I love the irony. 631 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 1: So the irony here is you've got the most institutionalized 632 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 1: dude in the world trying to tell you how to 633 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: liberate yourself. And so in this weird way, I think 634 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: it's a mirror of everybody, because we all to some 635 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: degree or preaching what we most need to learn. What's 636 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: interesting about the TJ character. Most brothers in jail do 637 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: learn to liberate themselves mentally, so their body is trapped physically, 638 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: but mentally and emotionally, they have to take themselves someplace 639 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: else in order just to get by. So he's not 640 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: really institutionalized up here because his mind has been someplace 641 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 1: out for a long time. Well, okay, the damn Charlemagne. 642 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 1: That's okay, So let me explain where how I see that. Okay, 643 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: I believe that he had to create an alternative reality 644 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 1: in order to be able to sustain his dreams while 645 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: he was in the inside, right, But I also believe 646 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: that sadly, the process for that, he's so out of 647 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: touch with the real world. The process for getting there 648 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: is uh is missing. He doesn't really understand it. So 649 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: when he comes outside and he's finally out and free 650 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: and pursuing his dream, he's running all of these a 651 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 1: lot of these stumbling blocks, but they're kind of the 652 00:34:17,520 --> 00:34:21,080 Speaker 1: self created. He didn't himself so rich. By the way, 653 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: I just want to say, if y'all don't know nothing 654 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,399 Speaker 1: about the movie, it starts me Regina Hall, who plays 655 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: his probation officer, and the movie's kind of like a 656 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: metaphor and Tammy Roman and now Paula Brunson. But Tammy 657 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:39,359 Speaker 1: Roman is uncomfortably real in this movie. It's it's uncomfortably real. 658 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: I'm so glad I castor. But the point that I'm 659 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 1: trying to make is is that you look at this 660 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 1: character and you learn about what it really means to 661 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 1: be on probation. You learn what it means for you, 662 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: what it costs for your family to call you when 663 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 1: you at home. You get to see the real deal. 664 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: But you also understand that the system is really set 665 00:34:57,760 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 1: up to disenfranchise you even more once you become a felon. 666 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: And he's got these big dreams for this alternate reality 667 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 1: that he's created for himself on the inside. But when 668 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 1: he gets out, the systems like na na nae. So 669 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,760 Speaker 1: his probation officers taking him to fill out these ninety 670 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,240 Speaker 1: nine fill out applications at the ninety nine cents store. 671 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: He trying to figure out how to become a world 672 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: and out life coach. If he doesn't get employed, he 673 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,320 Speaker 1: goes back to jail, like the stipulation of his parole. So, 674 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: you know, as funny as it is, that's what a 675 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:31,760 Speaker 1: lot of people are dealing with when they are inside, 676 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: when they get outside the germ. You know, there was 677 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: one part where you know where he was saying, Hey, 678 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 1: I want to be a motivational speaker, and she was 679 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: like yeah, okay, Like all right, you want me to 680 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: type that down. But I was saying, I got a 681 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 1: couple of family members that when they come home, they 682 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:46,680 Speaker 1: don't want to go to the ninety nine cent store, 683 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: they don't want to go work at home depot because 684 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 1: they have bigger dreams. But then they're forced to. And 685 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 1: then what winds up happening is they don't want to 686 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,879 Speaker 1: go to work, you know, because that's not their dream, 687 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: and they're forced to. And then what happens when they're late, 688 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,879 Speaker 1: Then they have to go back back to the halfway house. 689 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: And that's the same circle that they go over and over. 690 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: They don't allow people who've been sitting there for a 691 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: while and say, hey, this is my dream, Let me 692 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 1: try my dream. But they forced them to go to 693 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: these jobs that they necessarily don't love, necessarily don't want 694 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 1: to do, and they wind up going in that same 695 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 1: circle over and over and over again. And that's the 696 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: whole point of the movie right there, is showing you 697 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,320 Speaker 1: how we do is trying to navigate around the system 698 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:25,479 Speaker 1: to pursue a dream and do it in a comical way, 699 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 1: but just trying to educate people to be a bit 700 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 1: more empathetic because I honestly see it, like, man, when 701 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 1: I watched that videotape of Rashard Brooks when he was 702 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: just talking about you know, I've made some mistakes. I'm 703 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 1: trying to get back up on my feet. Don't look 704 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: at me like an animal. I got dreams too. I 705 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 1: felt like I was seeing Tijuana Jackson in that dude 706 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: that it gave me chills. It made me so uncomfortable. 707 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,200 Speaker 1: But that's the reality. And I feel like by watching 708 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:52,959 Speaker 1: the movie, people are going to have like a better 709 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: understanding and hopefully more empathy. Because you know, the reason 710 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:58,440 Speaker 1: I even the reason to do like me even knows 711 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: about this is because growing up in my fame, my friends, 712 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:04,959 Speaker 1: you know, my homies, like their brother or somebody would 713 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: get out of prison right and then you don't realize it. 714 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:11,240 Speaker 1: But it's not just the system that opacizes them, the family, 715 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: the community. I kind of opacizes them too. People don't want, 716 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,359 Speaker 1: you know, your kids hanging out with him and all 717 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: sort of stuff. So I'd always be the dude who 718 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: was just too soft to turn my back on her brother, 719 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: and I end up hanging out with them, going on 720 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: double days. I ain't hando business being on dropping them 721 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 1: off the places I ain't hando business. Then you know 722 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 1: that kind of and I kind of really started learning 723 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 1: and understanding and developing this empathy that I probably might 724 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 1: not have had otherwise. All Right, we got more with 725 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: Romedy Malco when we come back, don't Move. It's the 726 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning morning, everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne. 727 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: The guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking 728 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: in with Romedy Malco. Charlemagne. I don't want to give 729 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: the movie away, but I do like the realization TJ 730 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: came through towards the end, you know, because he kind 731 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: of realized that his motivation only applies to him. But 732 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 1: he realized in order for it to be effective, it 733 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 1: would have to you'd have to be selfless. And there 734 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: was one line man that put it all in perspective 735 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 1: when TJ said, when you have to beg a man 736 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: twice your size to wear a condom, it doesn't do 737 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,479 Speaker 1: anything for your self I had to rewind that because 738 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:24,360 Speaker 1: I like what they just said. But in perspective, it 739 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 1: makes so much sense. When you got to beg a 740 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 1: man twice your size to wear a condom, it doesn't 741 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: do anything for your selfless. It sounds like you speak 742 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 1: of a personal experience. Charlomagne There's a lot of little 743 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,919 Speaker 1: funny gems in this movie, as you can see. But listen, 744 00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 1: I do want to commend you because I know this 745 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: has been something that you've been working on for so long. 746 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 1: How long did it take you to actually start writing 747 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: this movie and then get to this finished product? Because 748 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: it is available July thirty first, on demand right and 749 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: on Apple TV, Apple TV, It's gonna be on Amazon Prime, 750 00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 1: It's gonna be on Voodoo fand ain't gonna now pretty 751 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: VOD pretty much any video on demand you can get it. 752 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 1: You know, I would say that when I really got 753 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: serious and said this is gonna happen, it probably took 754 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: me about five six years total. And I'm not gonna lie. 755 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:16,760 Speaker 1: There was a moment where I kind of started feeling 756 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 1: like I was being seduced by Hollywood and the possibilities 757 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 1: of some prominent black producers in Hollywood who I will 758 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:28,840 Speaker 1: not name, were expressing mad interests, calling every day or 759 00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,560 Speaker 1: you know, reading the script over and over, and I thought, damn, 760 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 1: you know, these brothers might get it, you know what 761 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying. But in the end, I was living in 762 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 1: Puerto Rico and I just kind of had this realization that. 763 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: It was like, I'm I'm kind of Hollywood side check 764 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 1: right now, because I was hearing all these promises, you know, like, oh, 765 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna leave it, I'm gonna leaven, We're gonna 766 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: get a house. And I never really got that commitment 767 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 1: from Hollywood, and I realized I was wasting a lot 768 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: of time by doing that. And when I really gave 769 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 1: it thought, I had to it down and figure out 770 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 1: how I was going to make the best product possible. 771 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:05,919 Speaker 1: I mean, that's when I decided to start a crowd 772 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 1: funding campaign. My manager called me when I started that 773 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 1: crowd funding campaign and he said, a, fam, I don't 774 00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: think you should do this. I said, why not? He goes, 775 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: You know we can get the money you've got interest. 776 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: He goes, and it's not a good look for you 777 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:21,440 Speaker 1: to be an established actor to be asking fans for money. 778 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 1: And I was like, whoa what wait wait? What what 779 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 1: do you think I'm an established out these I was like, 780 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,880 Speaker 1: I'd assume that by now we to raise something. No, 781 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: and he was like hm. So we ended up having 782 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 1: a little bit more of a talk, and what I 783 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 1: ended up doing was I ended up putting in some 784 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 1: of my own money starting the crowd funding campaign and 785 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,120 Speaker 1: what we the analogy we came up with it sometimes 786 00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: you got to start your own party, put the music on, 787 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,360 Speaker 1: or yourself a drink, get on the damned floor by yourself, 788 00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:57,720 Speaker 1: and then send out the invitations. And that's that's basically 789 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,919 Speaker 1: what I did. So how did Will Packer and James 790 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: lo Fest become the EPs there? Because when I saw that, 791 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 1: I was like, well, I thought Romany did this himself. 792 00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 1: But then I saw them at the EPs, it gave 793 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,520 Speaker 1: it to Hollywood. Phil oh Man, I lied, I lied. 794 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 1: I thought y'allways didn't know that I'm playing. No. The 795 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:18,439 Speaker 1: real reason, No, after I made the movie. I made, 796 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:22,760 Speaker 1: I shot, wrote, directed the movie. Everything promoted money, finance 797 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 1: the whole thing. After I made the movie, I never 798 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 1: really was concerned about being in Sundance. I was never 799 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: really concerned about being like Tribeca or all these procedgious 800 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,520 Speaker 1: film festivals. I really wanted to take the movie to 801 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 1: the places where people had contributed money. So that ended 802 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 1: up being like Florida, Nashville, you know, Brooklyn, you know. 803 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: And one of those places was Atlanta, And so Atlanta 804 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,879 Speaker 1: Film Festival was like, yo, we'll feature your film there. 805 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: We won't you know, we won't have you compete, but 806 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: we would love to feature your film. And they had 807 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,800 Speaker 1: this uh they just remodelists. Theater had three hundred and 808 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 1: ninety seats who packed it out, and the president of 809 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 1: Wild pack the production showed up. Lopez saw it and 810 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 1: after what he was like, you got that performance out 811 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,319 Speaker 1: of Tammy.

But I ain't sewed it yet, right 837 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 1: because this is my first one. But what I have 838 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 1: peace is that if you really listen to like, you know, 839 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: the issues that a lot of people have with Hollywood. 840 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: One is they have an issue with the creative accounting, 841 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,799 Speaker 1: so meaning they're always being told, well, you know, they 842 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 1: ain't no more money. You know. I read this book 843 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,320 Speaker 1: called down in Dirty Hollywood or something like that, and 844 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 1: they were talking about the wine steins and and and 845 00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:46,279 Speaker 1: I'll ben affleck and and and and got done for 846 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 1: a good real hunting and stuff like that. And I 847 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: really took note of that. So I was like, okay, 848 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: so awesome that you know the Key and Peel brothers. 849 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 1: I'm met with them before he made hit his hit, 850 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 1: and I was like talking to them, and they're like, 851 00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:59,480 Speaker 1: if we can figure out a way to get rid 852 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:01,800 Speaker 1: of this at retirement cost is p and a to 853 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,359 Speaker 1: be sometimes ten, fifteen, twenty thirty, forty fifty million dollars, 854 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 1: we could create a direct you know, to consumer connection. 855 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,320 Speaker 1: And that's what allays I started inspirement to do, keeping 856 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 1: it at a low price point and getting just enough 857 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 1: star power that you can actually fell incentivize the distributor 858 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 1: to pick up the film with keithany and um and 859 00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:23,120 Speaker 1: then the other thing was I was like, well, you know, 860 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:25,360 Speaker 1: we got this digital distribution. Let me tell y'all. Let 861 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: me tell y'all something. Okay. There was no way in 862 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 1: the world that I could predict coronavirus COVID nineteen. There 863 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: was no way. But when we would do when we 864 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 1: were dealing with distributors, the way that the deal normally 865 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 1: goes as you give up the lion's share of the 866 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 1: film to distributors and then they put your film in 867 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 1: a frigging and then a bunch of theaters, right, and 868 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,359 Speaker 1: then you get a cut once they had recruited all 869 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:52,440 Speaker 1: their money, not knowing nothing that was gonna happen in 870 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,279 Speaker 1: the future. I was like, no, no, now, we ain't 871 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 1: doing that. We ain't doing that. So the distributor said, Okay, 872 00:44:57,719 --> 00:45:00,480 Speaker 1: I tell you what, what if we facilitated deal? What 873 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:04,800 Speaker 1: if we just facilitated meaning we'll help you position your movie. 874 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 1: We'll take a very very small percent, but we won't 875 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: be putting up a whole bunch of money for marketing 876 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 1: and all this stuff, right, because honestly, they never do. 877 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 1: And dude, shortly after we said okay and we got 878 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: our contract COVID nineteen hits. So just imagine I would 879 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 1: have gave up the lion's share of my movie to 880 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 1: be put in theaters when it's impossible. Now, yeah, we'd 881 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:33,959 Speaker 1: have been limited to a digital release anyway and little 882 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 1: to no marketing. So I really feel like this is 883 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,320 Speaker 1: a This was like kind of seven difference, And I 884 00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 1: think that I've been asking for this for a long 885 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 1: time and it just kind of happened where I ended 886 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,440 Speaker 1: up being able to maintain ownership and also kind of 887 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 1: market on major platforms. So I feel I feel very 888 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: lucky right now. Keep it luck. We got over Romedy 889 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:57,720 Speaker 1: Malcolm when we come back, is the Breakfast Club going morning? 890 00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: Everybody is DJ Envy angela Ye, Charlemagne, the guy we 891 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,280 Speaker 1: are the Breakfast Club was still kicking in with Rominy 892 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:06,560 Speaker 1: Malco Charlemagne. I feel like the movie was like a 893 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,320 Speaker 1: pilot to me. It set it up like a pilot. 894 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 1: I think I think it should go. I think it 895 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: would be a better series. But but you mentioned your 896 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 1: nephew in real life. Was he inspiration for your nephew 897 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:20,359 Speaker 1: in the film? No? Eric um No, not a little 898 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 1: eric No, No, No, he was, you know, honestly, man, 899 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 1: he was kind of like me when I was a 900 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 1: kid rolling around with my dad. My dad's one of 901 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 1: the most truth dudes I have them metch you know, 902 00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:34,400 Speaker 1: he my dad came. My dad came to Brooklyn and 903 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 1: bought Trinidad with him film and so he would hustle 904 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 1: and dry taxis with no certification. He was my My 905 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 1: dad was a hustling and I kind of always felt 906 00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:48,440 Speaker 1: like I was riding shotgun with t J. So you know, 907 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 1: little Eric was really bet But I'm so excited that 908 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 1: you said you felt like it was a pilot, because 909 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: that's kind of the point. That's the goal. The goal 910 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,800 Speaker 1: now is to actually be able to go forward and 911 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 1: make the Tijuana Jackson TV show. And every single person went. 912 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: Regina Hall showed up. I never forget. She just looked 913 00:47:07,040 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 1: at me and she's like, she looked around. She did 914 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:10,400 Speaker 1: a couple of scenes and she was like, this is 915 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: going the series wrong, this is going to serious. Chammie 916 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 1: Roman was the first person to say, she goes when 917 00:47:15,080 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 1: you're ready to learn how to make money on this, 918 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,840 Speaker 1: let me know. Now, I'm like, oh, okay, because you know, 919 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: she's a businesswoman, hands down and her acting is uncomfortably 920 00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: real through this. I swear to everything. And so that's 921 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,439 Speaker 1: the goal, Charlemagne. So I thank you for that, because 922 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,919 Speaker 1: that is the goal. I was gonna ask Regina Hall, 923 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: you know, what was the process of getting her involved 924 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 1: in this film? Man? You know, I don't know a lot. 925 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,640 Speaker 1: I don't man, I don't want to incrimic. I'm gonna 926 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:50,800 Speaker 1: just she leaves her. She leaves that she had the preyer. 927 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 1: She leaves the door open. I crawled into the back 928 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:54,880 Speaker 1: of that. When she was so having the work, I 929 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,879 Speaker 1: popped up on her life. I really had been telling 930 00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,040 Speaker 1: her about it two years and she kept saying, I 931 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,359 Speaker 1: want to play a hard bitch. I want to play 932 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 1: and I was like, real, so, um, what I did 933 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,320 Speaker 1: was I just basically wrote it in a way that 934 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,680 Speaker 1: I felt like it would be appealing to her. And 935 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 1: then rather than just say take this job, I went 936 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,480 Speaker 1: to her and said, I want your notes. He need 937 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 1: your notes on this job. And she read it and 938 00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 1: called me and was like, what's fine with you? Baby? 939 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 1: What's fine with this? Come out of your head? But 940 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,319 Speaker 1: you you're out this. I'm like, yes, you ain't right, baby. 941 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:32,360 Speaker 1: He needs to talk to somebody. And I was like, 942 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 1: you know, she'd go, Joe, I definitely want to do this. 943 00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: And I also think that this character should have more slang. Well, 944 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 1: since since there's been a Tiawana Jackson, there's a real 945 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: life version of TJ out here in these streets right now. 946 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if you know Willow from Philadelphia.

And true to see and 1012 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:42,080 Speaker 1: like that stood out, and so knowing that these communities, 1013 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 1: it's like they're purposely keeping the game from you, knowing 1014 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:47,480 Speaker 1: that they're purposely trying to keep you ignorant, knowing that 1015 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: they purposely don't want you to know the etiquette of 1016 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 1: of pursuing investors, knowing that they don't want you to 1017 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:56,040 Speaker 1: know the etiquette of just simply managing the work.

Okay, 1138 00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:54,640 Speaker 1: it's been happening since the beginning of time, knocking off man. 1139 00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,080 Speaker 1: The man was grieving and he wanted to stop somewhere 1140 00:57:57,160 --> 00:58:00,120 Speaker 1: he felt comfortable going to Magic City. That's it. They 1141 00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 1: replaced the eating, got something to eat, probably got to 1142 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 1: smile a little bit, and he went home. Let the 1143 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:07,680 Speaker 1: man live now. Kendrick Perkins tweeted out, it's disturbing when 1144 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,760 Speaker 1: a rookie and Zion Williamson can act more mature than 1145 00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:14,440 Speaker 1: NBA vet Lou Williams. That's because Zion Williamson also had 1146 00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 1: an excused absence and he said, you didn't hear anything 1147 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 1: about him now. Lou will responded on Twitter and said, 1148 00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 1: fifteen years in this business, and the most dirt you 1149 00:58:21,400 --> 00:58:23,240 Speaker 1: have on my name is stopping to get hot wings 1150 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:26,480 Speaker 1: during a pandemic perk, shut up and stop laughing and 1151 00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: saying it's just TV when you run into me too. 1152 00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:30,720 Speaker 1: And then he said, but I digressed. I went home 1153 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 1: to see a man off to his final resting place. 1154 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:34,640 Speaker 1: That was a giant in my life. I don't want 1155 00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:36,600 Speaker 1: that to get lost in all this attention. So again, 1156 00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,480 Speaker 1: long lived the Great Paul Williams Senior. Back to my 1157 00:58:39,600 --> 00:58:43,480 Speaker 1: quarantine so I can join the guy soon. Peace. Oh listen, 1158 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,840 Speaker 1: Zion Williamson ain't had the wings that Magic City yet. 1159 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 1: All right, as soon as Zion gets the Atlanta and 1160 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,720 Speaker 1: gets to taste them goddamn wings in Magic City, let's 1161 00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:56,320 Speaker 1: see how mature he is as well. Okay, all right, 1162 00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:58,120 Speaker 1: well I'm hand it la Yee, and that is your 1163 00:58:58,240 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 1: rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Yee.

I need Tom Cotton, okay, he's a senator, um, 1165 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:09,320 Speaker 1: I need him to come to the front of the congregation. 1166 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:11,240 Speaker 1: We'd like to have a word with him. Please. All right, 1167 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 1: we'll get to that next keeping lock this to breakfast club. 1168 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 1: Good morning, it's time for don't give the day Democrat. 1169 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:24,600 Speaker 1: So being dunky of the day, a little bit of 1170 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:32,600 Speaker 1: a mix like a dope other day. Now, I've been 1171 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:34,840 Speaker 1: called a lot of my twenty three years. That donkey 1172 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:37,040 Speaker 1: of the day is a new wife. Donkey to day 1173 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 1: for Tuesday, July twenty eighth goes to Arkansas Republican Senator 1174 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: Tom Cotton. Oh, I can't tell you how heavy the 1175 00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:44,920 Speaker 1: mandais is on this one. Ladies and gentlemen. If you 1176 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,439 Speaker 1: are allergic to that thick, cold white sauce commonly used 1177 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:50,880 Speaker 1: on sandwiches and hamburgers, then you may not want to 1178 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 1: listen any further. But we have to get to it. Okay. 1179 00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:57,920 Speaker 1: Tom Cotton has called the enslavement of millions of African 1180 00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:02,320 Speaker 1: people are necessary evil. In fact, he said the necessary 1181 01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 1: evil upon which this country was built. His last name 1182 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,400 Speaker 1: is Cotton. What do you expect? Okay? He wears that 1183 01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 1: name proudly. You'd wear that name proudly too, if your 1184 01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 1: ancestors would have one's profiting off it, not picking it 1185 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:19,280 Speaker 1: all right, Cotton is what prolonged America's most serious social tragedy, slavery. 1186 01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,880 Speaker 1: All right, from the eighteen thirties to the eighteen forties, 1187 01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 1: the common phrase was Cotton is king. So of course 1188 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 1: Tom Cotton fields like slavery, wasn't necessary evil now, Henry 1189 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 1: Lewis Gates Junior once wrote, Cotton was one of the 1190 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 1: world's first luxury commodities and the commodity whose production most 1191 01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:40,440 Speaker 1: dramatically turned millions of black human beings in the USA 1192 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:44,720 Speaker 1: themselves into a commodity bars. So it's not surprising to 1193 01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:46,920 Speaker 1: me that Tom Cotton would take the stance he took. Now, 1194 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:51,680 Speaker 1: Tom Cotton recently introduced to Saving American History Act of 1195 01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:56,000 Speaker 1: twenty twenty. It should be the Saving American's White History 1196 01:00:56,080 --> 01:00:58,760 Speaker 1: Act of twenty twenty. Okay. It prohibits the use of 1197 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:04,080 Speaker 1: federal funds teach the sixteen nineteen Project to kindergarten students 1198 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,040 Speaker 1: and K twelve schools our school districts. According to a 1199 01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 1: statement from the senator's office, basically, he doesn't want the 1200 01:01:10,160 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 1: truth about how his country was found to be told. 1201 01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:14,120 Speaker 1: Let's listen to what he had to say. The New 1202 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:17,520 Speaker 1: York Times should not be teaching American history to our kids, Frank, 1203 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:22,640 Speaker 1: The sixteen nineteen project is left wing AGAINDA It's revisionist 1204 01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:26,040 Speaker 1: history at its worst. The entire premise of The New 1205 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 1: York Times factually historically lauded sixteen nineteen project is that 1206 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:36,479 Speaker 1: America is at root systemically racist country to the core 1207 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 1: and irritatable. I reject that root branch. America is a 1208 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 1: great and noble country. And I take it you believe 1209 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:49,880 Speaker 1: that slavery is an important part of American history. We 1210 01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:52,920 Speaker 1: have to study the history of slavery and its role 1211 01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 1: of impact on the development of our country, because otherwise 1212 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: your canninger sent in our country as the founding father 1213 01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: said that it was the necessary evel upon which the 1214 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:03,640 Speaker 1: Union was built. But the Union was built in a way, 1215 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 1: as Lincoln said, to put slavery on the force to 1216 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 1: expection an extinction. Yes, unfortunately that was not done in 1217 01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:13,840 Speaker 1: a peaceful fashion. Now I need to bring light to 1218 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:17,000 Speaker 1: these kinds of comments because we as a people need 1219 01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:20,920 Speaker 1: to know the unnecessary evil we are up against. And yes, 1220 01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:24,040 Speaker 1: I said unnecessary. Okay, it's people like this human jar 1221 01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:27,480 Speaker 1: of hellman's Tom Cotton, who stand in the way of 1222 01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:30,520 Speaker 1: the true liberation of black people in this country, who 1223 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:32,640 Speaker 1: stand in the way of true progress. Now do you 1224 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 1: notice man Tom Cotton is widely seen as a possible 1225 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:39,280 Speaker 1: presidential candidate in twenty twenty four. Yes, a man who 1226 01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 1: believes slavery was a necessary evil in this country wants 1227 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,720 Speaker 1: to be a leader of the free world. Nicole Hannah 1228 01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,640 Speaker 1: Jones Troplina Clu's bombs for her. She was awarded to 1229 01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:52,040 Speaker 1: be Shears Public Surprise for a commentary for her introductory 1230 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:58,680 Speaker 1: essay to the sixteen nineteen project. She tweeted if slavery heritable, generational, permanent, 1231 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 1: race based slavery where it was legal to rape, torture 1232 01:03:01,920 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 1: and sell human beings for profit was a necessary evil, 1233 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:08,000 Speaker 1: As Tom Cotton says, it's hard to imagine what cannot 1234 01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 1: be justified if it is a means to an end. 1235 01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:15,360 Speaker 1: Imagine thinking a non divisive curriculum is one that tells 1236 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 1: black children the buying and selling of their ancestors, the rape, torture, 1237 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 1: enforced labor of their ancestors for profit was just the 1238 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 1: necessary evil. Trop on a clues bos Nicole Hannah Jones. Again, 1239 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:32,320 Speaker 1: that is my sentiments toast Crunch exactly. Okay, Tom Cotton 1240 01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:37,280 Speaker 1: love slavery. It's really just as them where he loves slavery. 1241 01:03:37,280 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 1: He loved the idea of slavery because his last name 1242 01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 1: is named after the commodity that kept black Americans as 1243 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:46,760 Speaker 1: a commodity. And that's probably why Tom Cotton obstructs every 1244 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 1: single criminal justice reform bill in the Senate because he 1245 01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:55,160 Speaker 1: loves seeing people incarcerating, because incarceration is simply what modern 1246 01:03:55,240 --> 01:03:58,520 Speaker 1: day slavery. We all know what that Thirteenth Amendment represents. 1247 01:03:58,560 --> 01:04:01,040 Speaker 1: You see the documentary by being able to douvenay, and 1248 01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:04,520 Speaker 1: if you haven't, you should go read it. Okay, it's simple. 1249 01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:07,240 Speaker 1: The Thirteenth Amendment to the US Constitution provides that neither 1250 01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 1: slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime, 1251 01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:14,640 Speaker 1: whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist 1252 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 1: within the United States or any place subject to their jurisdiction. 1253 01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:20,640 Speaker 1: You're committed crime, You're going back to being a slave, 1254 01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:23,240 Speaker 1: simple as that. And that's exactly what people like Tom 1255 01:04:23,400 --> 01:04:26,120 Speaker 1: Cotton want to do. Some research on the guy, that's 1256 01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:29,160 Speaker 1: all I ask you do your Google's. Tom Cotton fought 1257 01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:31,600 Speaker 1: hard against the First Step Act, and there's the main 1258 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:35,080 Speaker 1: reason it's not stronger. He also obstructed the Juvenile Justice 1259 01:04:35,080 --> 01:04:37,960 Speaker 1: and Delinquency Protection Act. Last week, he introduced the bill 1260 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:42,400 Speaker 1: which Senator Kelly Loefler to create a gang member tracking database, 1261 01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:45,680 Speaker 1: and he's been pushing for an enhancements for fentanol in 1262 01:04:45,760 --> 01:04:49,360 Speaker 1: the federal system forever. He's also a huge wallmonger. Okay, 1263 01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 1: remember that time the president wanted to buy greenland That 1264 01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 1: came from Tom Cotton. And Tom also calls the pandemic 1265 01:04:56,040 --> 01:05:00,200 Speaker 1: the coronavirus the Wuhan, China virus, just like his president. Listen, man, 1266 01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 1: I'm not intelligent. I'm just articulate. Read that on YouTube yesterday. 1267 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:08,400 Speaker 1: Thought that was very accurate about myself, and I pay attention, 1268 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 1: and I read a little bit, and I have people 1269 01:05:10,440 --> 01:05:12,680 Speaker 1: around me way smarter than me who informed me about 1270 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,400 Speaker 1: these things. People like Tom Cotton would be happy to 1271 01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:18,880 Speaker 1: have us back in chains, simple as that if it 1272 01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,880 Speaker 1: meant that this country's economy could be stronger. And what's 1273 01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:25,120 Speaker 1: even worse, Tom Cotton has no Democrats running against him 1274 01:05:25,120 --> 01:05:27,080 Speaker 1: for his seat this year, so he will be back 1275 01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:30,400 Speaker 1: in Congress and likely will run for president in twenty 1276 01:05:30,520 --> 01:05:33,800 Speaker 1: twenty four. Let's not forget this man's name. Okay, so 1277 01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 1: you know who not to vote for. Okay, And how 1278 01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 1: can you forget his last name when his last name 1279 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 1: is literally the reason there was a civil war. His 1280 01:05:42,600 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 1: last name is literally the reason black people were or 1281 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 1: looked upon as property to begin with all right, and 1282 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 1: I even play white Devil's advocate with you. Tom Cotton, 1283 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:55,360 Speaker 1: just for a second, you think slavery was a necessary evil, Okay, 1284 01:05:55,680 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 1: I can tell you why it wasn't. I can tell 1285 01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:00,120 Speaker 1: you why it was not a necessary evil. It is 1286 01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 1: just evil. Because even if you say slavery is what 1287 01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:07,720 Speaker 1: built this country, right, which is true, my response would be, 1288 01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 1: what the hell was wrong with your hands? Okay? If 1289 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:13,120 Speaker 1: you came to America to build this country, why not 1290 01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:16,080 Speaker 1: build it your damn self with the Native Americans and 1291 01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:18,880 Speaker 1: indigenous people that were already here. Nobody told you to 1292 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 1: kidnap Africans and bring them over here and violently force 1293 01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:23,880 Speaker 1: them to work for you for free. That didn't have 1294 01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:26,000 Speaker 1: to go down like that. You could have put in 1295 01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:28,919 Speaker 1: your own work and treated the Native Americans who will 1296 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,920 Speaker 1: hear good, and built this country with them, and then 1297 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:35,080 Speaker 1: we would have all been starting on an equal playing 1298 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,760 Speaker 1: field because we built this country together, as opposed to 1299 01:06:38,800 --> 01:06:42,360 Speaker 1: getting a bunch of Africans to build this country for free. 1300 01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:45,680 Speaker 1: It wasn't a necessary evil. It wasn't necessary for you 1301 01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:48,080 Speaker 1: to force us to work for you. That was a choice, 1302 01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 1: all right. Being a slave owner is a choice. Being 1303 01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:56,240 Speaker 1: a violent, murderous rapist is a choice, and so is 1304 01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: being a donkey. Tom Cotton, you need to learn to 1305 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,760 Speaker 1: make better choices.

If you 1324 01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:58,720 Speaker 1: just joined us, we got a lot of callers earlier 1325 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:00,920 Speaker 1: today during Get It off your Chair and talking about 1326 01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 1: kids going to school the school year. So we're asking 1327 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:07,360 Speaker 1: eight hundred five eight five one o five one, are 1328 01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:09,560 Speaker 1: you gonna allow your kids to go to school this year? 1329 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:14,400 Speaker 1: Let's start it with you, Charlemagne. I don't know. My 1330 01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:17,840 Speaker 1: daughter is twelve. She has her own instincts, her own intuition. 1331 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:20,120 Speaker 1: She says she doesn't want to go back. I respect it, 1332 01:08:20,320 --> 01:08:22,880 Speaker 1: but she also has no problem going to Chileing practice. 1333 01:08:22,880 --> 01:08:25,080 Speaker 1: So if you can go to Chileing practice in social 1334 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:26,760 Speaker 1: distanced and I feel like you can do that in 1335 01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:30,000 Speaker 1: school as well. I'm as soon to be five year old. 1336 01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:32,040 Speaker 1: She just started school last year, so she didn't even 1337 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:35,240 Speaker 1: get to finish her first year in the classroom. So 1338 01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:37,599 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't even know how that's gonna 1339 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:39,240 Speaker 1: work out. So I think, like a lot of parents, 1340 01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:41,680 Speaker 1: it's just a lot of confusion on what we are 1341 01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:44,680 Speaker 1: going to do. And I also understand my circumstances are 1342 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 1: not like everyone else's because my wife is a personal trainer, 1343 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 1: so she works from home and I can afford a nanny. 1344 01:08:50,080 --> 01:08:52,519 Speaker 1: But even with that the problem is the school. My 1345 01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:56,200 Speaker 1: oldest daughter goes to right now is not offering an 1346 01:08:56,280 --> 01:08:58,479 Speaker 1: online option. So I really don't know how this is 1347 01:08:58,479 --> 01:09:00,799 Speaker 1: gonna play out. And it says a lot about America 1348 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:02,680 Speaker 1: that parents are being put in the position where they 1349 01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:05,720 Speaker 1: have to choose their livelihood are the well being of 1350 01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:07,720 Speaker 1: their kids. You can't even tell a parent to listen 1351 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,439 Speaker 1: to their gut, listen to their instinct in a situation 1352 01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:12,639 Speaker 1: like this, because your instinct is to protect your kids. 1353 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:15,200 Speaker 1: But having a job and providing for your kids, it's 1354 01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:17,599 Speaker 1: part of that protection. So it's just a terrible spot 1355 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:19,800 Speaker 1: to be in. So to be honest with you, I 1356 01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:23,200 Speaker 1: don't know what I'm gonna do. Yeah, you know, I 1357 01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:24,720 Speaker 1: kind of feel the same way. And the reason I 1358 01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:28,120 Speaker 1: say that is because, yeah, my son, he plays football 1359 01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 1: and they have practice, so I mean they all practicing. 1360 01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:35,479 Speaker 1: My daughter is going to NYU, but she's only taking 1361 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,200 Speaker 1: I think one class a week where she actually has 1362 01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:42,080 Speaker 1: to go into that class. But the younger kids. The 1363 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:43,560 Speaker 1: difference with the younger kids, I know, at least the 1364 01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:45,599 Speaker 1: older kids, they'll wear their masks, you know, I can 1365 01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:48,240 Speaker 1: tell them things I can't expect my you know, my 1366 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:50,200 Speaker 1: six year old, my seven year old, my three year 1367 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,639 Speaker 1: old to wear a mask a full day in school. 1368 01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:55,920 Speaker 1: I just can't see it. I don't see it. So 1369 01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:58,599 Speaker 1: it's about about protection, you know. But I see kids 1370 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:00,960 Speaker 1: playing baseball, I see the lead us have started. I've 1371 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:04,000 Speaker 1: see kids playing team sports and go into camp. So 1372 01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:06,280 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, but I want my kids to 1373 01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:08,479 Speaker 1: kind of to have some type of normalcy, some type 1374 01:10:08,479 --> 01:10:11,479 Speaker 1: of being able to interact with other students, to interact 1375 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 1: with teachers, and being able to leave and do their work. 1376 01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:16,880 Speaker 1: So it's a tough decision as a right now today, 1377 01:10:17,040 --> 01:10:19,640 Speaker 1: I don't think so, but I don't know. That might 1378 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:21,720 Speaker 1: change in the next couple of weeks. Now, yeah, I 1379 01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:23,439 Speaker 1: know you don't have kids, but what is your thought? 1380 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,360 Speaker 1: You have a lot of nieces and god kids and 1381 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:28,759 Speaker 1: all lot of other stuff. I think that for people 1382 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:31,439 Speaker 1: that's really on you, you know. I also think it 1383 01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 1: depends on where you are, like what city you're in. 1384 01:10:34,040 --> 01:10:36,600 Speaker 1: I know in some small cities they haven't had a 1385 01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:40,880 Speaker 1: lot of issues with coronavirus. So if you feel comfortable 1386 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,479 Speaker 1: knowing that, okay, and this you know city that I 1387 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:46,960 Speaker 1: live in, maybe it's not as much of a concern 1388 01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:48,960 Speaker 1: as it is in some of the hot spots. But 1389 01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:51,360 Speaker 1: I do think as a parent, as an individual. It's 1390 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:54,360 Speaker 1: also hard for people if you don't have the technology 1391 01:10:54,479 --> 01:10:56,960 Speaker 1: at home to keep you on part with the other students. 1392 01:10:57,040 --> 01:10:58,519 Speaker 1: I understand all of that. I have a lot of 1393 01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:00,599 Speaker 1: my friends talking to me about their own kids. One 1394 01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:03,200 Speaker 1: of my friends has three children, and she's a single 1395 01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:05,880 Speaker 1: mom and she works, and she's like, look, I can't 1396 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:09,160 Speaker 1: even go back to work unless my kids go to school. 1397 01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:12,080 Speaker 1: Her baby father doesn't pay child support, so you know, 1398 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:13,880 Speaker 1: she's struggling right now. And she's like, I don't know 1399 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 1: how I'm going to maintain this unless my kids go 1400 01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 1: back to school. But then she's also concerned about their safety. 1401 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:21,360 Speaker 1: So I just think, what are the guidelines at the school? 1402 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:25,160 Speaker 1: Is following to ensure safety with the social distancing? And 1403 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:28,479 Speaker 1: is it going to be limited smaller classes, more spread out? 1404 01:11:28,560 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 1: Are the kids getting temperature checked? You know? I think 1405 01:11:31,200 --> 01:11:34,080 Speaker 1: you should take all those things into consideration. Yeah, I mean, 1406 01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:36,560 Speaker 1: you know, I think about it is Charlemagne, you and 1407 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:39,280 Speaker 1: I both know. I mean, there are sick kids all 1408 01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:41,840 Speaker 1: the time, Like your kid always has running nose, you 1409 01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:43,920 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Your kids get sick, they get 1410 01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, Yeah, the way my anxiety is set up. 1411 01:11:48,479 --> 01:11:50,160 Speaker 1: I ain't got time for all that. I don't got 1412 01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:53,560 Speaker 1: time for every cough, every running, No, because because I 1413 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:56,799 Speaker 1: don't even know if other illnesses exist anymore, everything is COVID. 1414 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,600 Speaker 1: But also too, who protecting the teachers because you know 1415 01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,720 Speaker 1: the truth, you know, we don't know if you know 1416 01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 1: how coronavirus impacts children, Like I think I read a 1417 01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:06,439 Speaker 1: story the other day that said the nine year old 1418 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:09,800 Speaker 1: died of coronavirus in Florida. Right, but those teachers have 1419 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:11,519 Speaker 1: to be exposed to those kids all the time, Like 1420 01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 1: those kids could be asymptomatic character carriers, and the teachers 1421 01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:19,240 Speaker 1: are just there, wide open. And then those kids are 1422 01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 1: going back to their parents, and those parents are going 1423 01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:23,720 Speaker 1: to their grandparents. Like it's just it's just it's just 1424 01:12:23,840 --> 01:12:26,080 Speaker 1: all bad, man, It's just all bad. And like I 1425 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:28,600 Speaker 1: said before, it's just it's a tough spot to be 1426 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:31,880 Speaker 1: in because you your primary instinct as a parent is 1427 01:12:31,920 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 1: to protect your child, right, but having a job and 1428 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:36,720 Speaker 1: providing for your kids as part of that protection. So 1429 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:39,160 Speaker 1: it's just a really bad spot to be in. Well, 1430 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:42,400 Speaker 1: let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this it's Courtney. 1431 01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,519 Speaker 1: Hey Courtney. Now we're talking about your kids going to school. 1432 01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:49,760 Speaker 1: What are you thinking? So I am yes and a no. 1433 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:51,439 Speaker 1: So I have a three year old and I have 1434 01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:53,200 Speaker 1: a seven year old, So I have one in daycare 1435 01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:55,519 Speaker 1: and I have one that's going in the third grade 1436 01:12:55,600 --> 01:12:59,679 Speaker 1: this year. So yes, they need to go back to school. 1437 01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:02,080 Speaker 1: Because my seven year old, you know, she goes to 1438 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:04,720 Speaker 1: another person for that little bit of extra help with 1439 01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 1: the reading and things like that that I cannot give 1440 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:11,200 Speaker 1: her working, you know, forty five fifty hours a week. Um, 1441 01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:14,439 Speaker 1: and my three year olds he needs to interact with 1442 01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 1: other children. But to also think that kids school age 1443 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:21,519 Speaker 1: are not going to run around and you know, make 1444 01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,400 Speaker 1: fun of it and you know, randomly licked their hands 1445 01:13:24,520 --> 01:13:27,599 Speaker 1: or something that will happen as well, so that fart's 1446 01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:31,440 Speaker 1: a little scary. But they need interaction with other children. Absolutely, 1447 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,800 Speaker 1: I agree with you. Yes and no for me too, 1448 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:37,599 Speaker 1: Thank you, mama. Let's go to ONEm online.

I'm 1473 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 1: thinking so, um, I got a I got a daughter 1474 01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:03,599 Speaker 1: that's going to first grade, and I feel as if, 1475 01:15:03,680 --> 01:15:07,160 Speaker 1: you know, the younger kids, it's very they needed to 1476 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,720 Speaker 1: school right now, like that, she's not gonna look at it. 1477 01:15:09,800 --> 01:15:12,679 Speaker 1: She's not gonna look at a computer or a tablet 1478 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 1: for like seven hours, and they're gonna have her attention 1479 01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 1: no more than two three hours. She's gonna be like, okay, 1480 01:15:18,320 --> 01:15:20,920 Speaker 1: I'm over there. So I feel as if younger kids 1481 01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:23,879 Speaker 1: they need the school. I know, I'm here in college, 1482 01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:28,120 Speaker 1: they're doing have virtual and half in class. So like 1483 01:15:28,439 --> 01:15:30,200 Speaker 1: all the younger kids, they kind of do need to 1484 01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:32,240 Speaker 1: go to school because they really need it. High school 1485 01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:35,800 Speaker 1: they can probably do laptops, but right now, the young 1486 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,800 Speaker 1: kids really need it. So listen, I agree, younger kids 1487 01:15:38,880 --> 01:15:41,800 Speaker 1: need school, but younger kids also need their health, they 1488 01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:44,640 Speaker 1: need their lives, you know. So it's just like we 1489 01:15:44,760 --> 01:15:46,840 Speaker 1: got to make a decision at this at this at 1490 01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 1: this moment, like I would hate to see, um, you know, 1491 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 1: something permanent happened based off temporary feelings. Yeah, but you know, 1492 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 1: also it's like he said, with the younger kids, you know, 1493 01:15:56,760 --> 01:15:58,360 Speaker 1: you can't expect them to stand there look at the 1494 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 1: computer for five, six, seven, eight hours, you know, five hours, 1495 01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:03,760 Speaker 1: you know, so that's difficult. So what are you teaching for? 1496 01:16:03,840 --> 01:16:05,840 Speaker 1: An hour a day or two hours a day? The 1497 01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:08,479 Speaker 1: parents are not teaching, so they don't know the curriculum, 1498 01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:11,080 Speaker 1: they don't know how to teach, so your kids would 1499 01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:16,639 Speaker 1: be behind. You know, an outbreak of coronavirus among kids 1500 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:20,120 Speaker 1: all across the country, that would be Hello difficult, right, 1501 01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:28,280 Speaker 1: that would be hello difficult? Hello? Who's this? Yo? Yo? Yo? What? Good? 1502 01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:33,240 Speaker 1: Good morning? What's happening?

I am feeling grace this morning. 1507 01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:58,000 Speaker 1: So here in Detroit last year, my children got definitely 1508 01:16:58,120 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 1: notice the home saying hey, parents, can you send in righteol? 1509 01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:05,400 Speaker 1: Can you send in alcohol? Wife? Remind your children to 1510 01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:08,400 Speaker 1: use sanitizer. We need to to suspect this. We need 1511 01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:12,600 Speaker 1: to just suspect that. I truly believe that coronavirus manifested 1512 01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:16,880 Speaker 1: sometime last year in school, kids were massively getting sick 1513 01:17:17,560 --> 01:17:22,000 Speaker 1: like crazy numbers here in Detroit there is no way 1514 01:17:22,600 --> 01:17:27,240 Speaker 1: in hetch that I'm sending my kids into school. They 1515 01:17:27,320 --> 01:17:31,479 Speaker 1: will be doing school online school. That's just that. There's 1516 01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:39,240 Speaker 1: have five girls the age range from eleven to sixteen, 1517 01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:44,400 Speaker 1: all fair sets. Two in middle school, three in high school. 1518 01:17:45,160 --> 01:17:48,840 Speaker 1: They're not going to in person schools. There's just no 1519 01:17:49,000 --> 01:17:50,960 Speaker 1: way you can tell me that my kids are gonna 1520 01:17:50,960 --> 01:17:53,519 Speaker 1: be good. First on my eleven year old her soul. 1521 01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:56,599 Speaker 1: She's not gonna keep that dang mask soon. I don't 1522 01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:59,080 Speaker 1: even check it into the stores because she don't want 1523 01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:02,320 Speaker 1: to keep the masks off right away. It's not going 1524 01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 1: to happen. All right, Well, thank you mama. All right, 1525 01:18:06,120 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 1: Well what's tomorrow left? There is a morrow? I don't 1526 01:18:08,520 --> 01:18:10,559 Speaker 1: know if there is a morrow. Man. Like I said, 1527 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:13,640 Speaker 1: you can't even tell somebody to trust their instincts in 1528 01:18:13,720 --> 01:18:16,879 Speaker 1: a situation like this, because as a parent, your instinct 1529 01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:19,439 Speaker 1: automatically is to protect your kids, to protect your kids 1530 01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:22,400 Speaker 1: from any harm if you can prevent it. But having 1531 01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:25,280 Speaker 1: a job and providing for your kids it's part of 1532 01:18:25,360 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 1: that protection. So it's just a bad spot to be in. 1533 01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:31,920 Speaker 1: So it really is listen to each their own type 1534 01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:35,000 Speaker 1: of situations. There's a small city in Georgia. They're going 1535 01:18:35,040 --> 01:18:37,520 Speaker 1: to be putting students in classrooms this week in Jefferson. 1536 01:18:38,120 --> 01:18:40,839 Speaker 1: So this week they're going to start in person classes 1537 01:18:40,920 --> 01:18:44,679 Speaker 1: without a mass requirement. Yeah, that's Jeffersons in high school. 1538 01:18:45,080 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 1: But there's a lot of schools that are open down. Like, 1539 01:18:47,080 --> 01:18:50,559 Speaker 1: there's a lot of schools open down. I was talking 1540 01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:52,320 Speaker 1: to a friend of mine, his Jewish, and he was like, 1541 01:18:52,400 --> 01:18:55,000 Speaker 1: his kids are in school, and the bus picks him up, 1542 01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:56,840 Speaker 1: the bus drops him back off, and he says, they 1543 01:18:56,920 --> 01:18:59,920 Speaker 1: had no cases of COVID and and they're taking every 1544 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:01,760 Speaker 1: proper you know, calls for it. And he and he 1545 01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:04,320 Speaker 1: has kids that I believe a like six seven. So 1546 01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:06,760 Speaker 1: I mean, people are doing it, and it seems like 1547 01:19:06,800 --> 01:19:09,759 Speaker 1: it's working. I just I just don't at my anxiety 1548 01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:11,880 Speaker 1: and my heart is telling me just chill out for 1549 01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:13,920 Speaker 1: a little bit, so we'll just chill. I don't see it, 1550 01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:17,400 Speaker 1: but I thank God that, you know, I am in 1551 01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:21,000 Speaker 1: the position to be able to just chill. That's right. 1552 01:19:21,120 --> 01:19:24,759 Speaker 1: Everybody don't have that luxury, and it is indeed a luxury. 1553 01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:27,479 Speaker 1: So it's a tough spot for people to be in. 1554 01:19:28,160 --> 01:19:31,280 Speaker 1: All right, Well, we got rumors on the way, Yes, 1555 01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:33,680 Speaker 1: we are going to be talking about Kyrie Irving and 1556 01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:36,640 Speaker 1: he has committed one point five million dollars.

He said, whether a person 1566 01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:15,080 Speaker 1: decided to fight for social justice, play basketball, focus on 1567 01:20:15,160 --> 01:20:17,639 Speaker 1: physical or mental health, or simply connect with their families, 1568 01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:22,040 Speaker 1: this initiative can hopefully support their priorities and decisions for 1569 01:20:22,200 --> 01:20:28,120 Speaker 1: that donation. We've heard some players talk about their own health. 1570 01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:32,439 Speaker 1: Other w NBA players like Liz uh There's a few 1571 01:20:32,680 --> 01:20:35,080 Speaker 1: different w NBA players who have decided to opt out 1572 01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:39,519 Speaker 1: this season, some for political reasons. Um, you know, Natasha 1573 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:41,400 Speaker 1: Cloud is not joining her team this year to focus 1574 01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:44,840 Speaker 1: on helping to fight for social justice.

Some people are 1583 01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:08,240 Speaker 1: sitting out to take care of things. Some people have 1584 01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:11,240 Speaker 1: health issues. For whatever your personal reason is, you know, 1585 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:13,920 Speaker 1: you shouldn't be forced to go play during a time 1586 01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:18,240 Speaker 1: like this.

Yeah, I don't know thinks about jay Z, Like, 1634 01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:51,240 Speaker 1: I don't even know why that was a conversation, how 1635 01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,920 Speaker 1: it came up about him and jay Z selling drugs. 1636 01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:56,840 Speaker 1: He didn't sell drugs with Jay. He didn't know Jay 1637 01:23:56,880 --> 01:23:59,080 Speaker 1: going up. I don't even understand. I was confused, Oh 1638 01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:02,280 Speaker 1: was fifty years old. I'm just assuming Hove having sold 1639 01:24:02,360 --> 01:24:09,439 Speaker 1: drugs probably three decades. Yeah, why is this a conversation? Listen, 1640 01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:12,080 Speaker 1: it's podcast time and there's a lot going on in 1641 01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:14,960 Speaker 1: the podcast. For instance, Joe Biden, he had some things 1642 01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:19,160 Speaker 1: to say about Logic, who retired recently. Logic, you don't 1643 01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:23,800 Speaker 1: get to announce this because we don't care. Hey, let's 1644 01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:28,479 Speaker 1: celebrate Logic getting out. He does get some empathy for me. Well, 1645 01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:32,240 Speaker 1: since Danny has backtracked and he actually apologized to Lodge, 1646 01:24:32,680 --> 01:24:35,559 Speaker 1: here's what he said last week. I came in here 1647 01:24:36,160 --> 01:24:40,240 Speaker 1: feeling pretty tumultuous, unable to properly read the room, and 1648 01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:44,840 Speaker 1: just hating myself and life. Honestly, and unfortunately I projected 1649 01:24:44,960 --> 01:24:49,000 Speaker 1: some of that onto you, Lodge, and for that I 1650 01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:52,759 Speaker 1: want to apologize. That was wrong of me. I should 1651 01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:55,679 Speaker 1: be able to think that you aren't the best rapper 1652 01:24:55,800 --> 01:25:00,160 Speaker 1: in the world, but celebrate your retirement. Definitely called them. 1653 01:25:00,240 --> 01:25:05,519 Speaker 1: Lodge hopefully understood what he did wrong, and you know, 1654 01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:07,439 Speaker 1: and I'm sure Logic called them, and they had a 1655 01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:10,280 Speaker 1: conversation and he apologized, Joe Budden is not a fan 1656 01:25:10,360 --> 01:25:12,839 Speaker 1: of Lodgic. Expressing that you're not a fan of somebody 1657 01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:15,680 Speaker 1: does not mean you're doing them wrong. Okay, Well, I 1658 01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: think he was just talking about letting him retire in peace. Also, 1659 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:22,519 Speaker 1: he's retiring. If you have commentary on his retirement, you 1660 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:25,320 Speaker 1: are allowed to do that too. Listen, Logic sold eighty 1661 01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:27,800 Speaker 1: five thousand records last week. If I'm Logic, do I 1662 01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:29,519 Speaker 1: care about the opinion of Joe Budden or do I 1663 01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:31,160 Speaker 1: care about the eighty five thousand people who bought my 1664 01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:33,200 Speaker 1: record last week? Obviously he cares about the opinion of 1665 01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:36,400 Speaker 1: Joe Budden exactly. And that's and that's something we all 1666 01:25:36,600 --> 01:25:38,360 Speaker 1: have to work on. We all have to work on, 1667 01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:43,120 Speaker 1: you know, gravitating towards the energy that we don't agree with. 1668 01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:45,600 Speaker 1: Why we do that as humans, I don't know. But 1669 01:25:45,680 --> 01:25:48,439 Speaker 1: you have to be intentional about focusing on the people 1670 01:25:48,479 --> 01:25:51,360 Speaker 1: who actually care about you, not the ones who don't. Yeah, well, 1671 01:25:51,400 --> 01:25:54,160 Speaker 1: Joe Button said that, you know, he felt he was disrespectful, 1672 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 1: so he moved walk his comments.
