0:01:11.400 --> 0:01:14.640
<v Speaker 1>degrees the whole week. Very huge, guys, Yes, sir, it's

0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:18.800
<v Speaker 1>it's summertime. Okay. It's like literally it's literally like walking

0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 1>a bad walking in the bathroom with somebody's pumping it's

0:01:21.080 --> 0:01:23.560
<v Speaker 1>pooping and saying it's station here. But you still do

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:27.679
<v Speaker 1>it too, Yes, we do. You still say that. That's

0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 1>the beauty of summer. The beauty of summer and the

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>beauty of winter is when you walk outside when his

0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight degrees, you say, damn, it's hot out here.

0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:38.360
<v Speaker 1>It actually feels good to say that. It does. It

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 1>feels good to announce that because we understand what season

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.480
<v Speaker 1>that we're in the same thing with winning. Damn, it's

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:45.600
<v Speaker 1>freezing out here. It's supposed to be. It's winter time.

0:01:46.200 --> 0:01:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I was catching up on some TV yesterday. I've watched

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:53.440

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:54.840
<v Speaker 1>people to scare me. It's not a hard movie. It

0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:57.239
<v Speaker 1>sounds like a hard movie, fatal and then the word

0:02:57.280 --> 0:02:59.320
<v Speaker 1>of fair black men don't cheat that stuff that I

0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:03.320
<v Speaker 1>like to stay with from like black men cheating in

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:08.919
<v Speaker 1>it really might out you know why? You why because

0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna fall into that exactly what it is.

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:19.400
<v Speaker 1>So then shelter the driving. Yesterday, I was riding my bike,

0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:21.280
<v Speaker 1>getting my miles in and somebody pulled up next to

0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.359

0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.080
<v Speaker 1>was on your little ride just today and you posted

0:03:29.120 --> 0:03:30.959
<v Speaker 1>that picture on Instagram. I literally saw that. I said,

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.280
<v Speaker 1>that's my bike full I felt like right in Fridays,

0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:36.440

0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 1>joining us this morning. We'll kick it with Rominey Malco.

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:47.240
<v Speaker 1>He has a new flick that comes out this weekend,

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:50.560
<v Speaker 1>so we'll talk to him. And he broke directed, edited

0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.720
<v Speaker 1>and everything and starting, and we got front page was

0:03:53.720 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 1>coming up. What we're talking about, Well, let's let's talk

0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 1>about baseball and coronavirus. What's happening there. We'll tell you

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.280
<v Speaker 1>about the album break that has caused them to postpone

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:05.520
<v Speaker 1>three games. All right, we'll get to that next. Keep

0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>it Lockers the Breakfast Club, Good morning morning. Everybody is

0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:12.000
<v Speaker 1>DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We all the

0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Breakfast Club. Let's get in some front page news were

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 1>starting you. Well, let's start with this. At least fourteen

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>players and coaches on the Miami Marlins tested positive for

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:27.400
<v Speaker 1>COVID nineteen. So Major League Baseball has to postpone three games,

0:04:27.440 --> 0:04:30.880
<v Speaker 1>and now they are raising questions about holding this season

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:34.040
<v Speaker 1>even though there is a pandemic going on. Here is

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred was their discussion questions

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:43.680
<v Speaker 1>about the possibility of this season being, if not canceled,

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:47.400
<v Speaker 1>put on a hiatus. No, there really wasn't we built

0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:52.080
<v Speaker 1>protocols anticipating positive tests at some point during the season.

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.600
<v Speaker 1>That the protocols were built in order to allow us

0:04:55.720 --> 0:04:58.800
<v Speaker 1>to continue to play through those positives. And I think

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.960
<v Speaker 1>there was support of the notion that the protocols are

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:05.720
<v Speaker 1>adiquette to keep our players safe. Yeah, I don't see

0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:07.839
<v Speaker 1>how to contained that for a whole season. They're gonna

0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:10.120
<v Speaker 1>be traveling. It's a lot more personnel in baseball. It's

0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 1>not like they can put themselves in a bump in

0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 1>one location like basketball players. I don't know how he

0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:18.440
<v Speaker 1>contained it right because there are no fans at the games.

0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:21.360
<v Speaker 1>They've banned high fives, there's no fist bumps, and there's

0:05:21.400 --> 0:05:24.400
<v Speaker 1>no spitting amongst the players now here. As a commissioner

0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:27.400
<v Speaker 1>talking about what's going to happen. Moving forward, weard with

0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 1>testing and protocols. We have improved the testing. There was

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:35.279
<v Speaker 1>a timeliness issue early on. We've completely eliminated the problem

0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 1>of having pending tests that people were talking about. If

0:05:38.160 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 1>that applies across the board in terms of the protocol.

0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:44.160
<v Speaker 1>It is an evolving situation. We continue to look at them.

0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:46.719
<v Speaker 1>We're looking at them again today to see whether there's

0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:49.880
<v Speaker 1>anything that we've learned from this situation that might cause

0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:54.680
<v Speaker 1>us to make alterations. Hey man, I'm not a baseball fan.

0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:56.240
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell y'all all the time, and telling y'all for

0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:58.719
<v Speaker 1>a year. I like baseball better when everybody was on steroids.

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:02.120
<v Speaker 1>That's when the sport was at best. Okay, right now,

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:04.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't, I'm not. I'm not missing baseball. I was

0:06:04.440 --> 0:06:07.719
<v Speaker 1>watching miss countdown. I was watching the NBA countdown last night, saying,

0:06:07.760 --> 0:06:10.480
<v Speaker 1>this is why I love basketball. Basketball, So it's so amazing,

0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:12.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, it was such a great sport. The fact

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.520
<v Speaker 1>that it can even be contained in a bubble is amazing.

0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:18.920
<v Speaker 1>How out the crowd though, Because I haven't seen any

0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:22.120
<v Speaker 1>games yet and I was without the crowd, it look

0:06:22.200 --> 0:06:23.560
<v Speaker 1>regular to me. I mean, I'm not gonna say it

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:26.719
<v Speaker 1>looks regular. Regular is not the word. It definitely looks different.

0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:28.880
<v Speaker 1>But I'm I'm paying attention to the action on the

0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:30.200
<v Speaker 1>court and think about it. Man, we live in a

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:32.120
<v Speaker 1>different era. We live in a social media era. The

0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:35.159
<v Speaker 1>crowd is on social media. You know what I'm saying.

0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:39.120
<v Speaker 1>I enjoy it well. In the White House, Donald Trump's

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:43.520
<v Speaker 1>National security advisor, Rabbit O'Brien has tested positive for coronavirus,

0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:47.479
<v Speaker 1>according to sources, So the White House declined to immediately comment.

0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.200
<v Speaker 1>We don't know whether or not they're going to have

0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:52.960
<v Speaker 1>to quarantine. But the University of Notre Dame announced that

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 1>they will withdraw from hosting the first presidential debate that

0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:59.120
<v Speaker 1>was supposed to happen September twenty ninth. Now that will

0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:03.560
<v Speaker 1>take place at Western Reserve University in Cleveland, according to

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:06.360
<v Speaker 1>a statement that they made. The president of the university,

0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 1>Father John Jenkins, said that he made what he called

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:12.800
<v Speaker 1>this difficult decision because the necessary health precautions would have

0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 1>greatly diminished the educational value of hosting the debate on

0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 1>our campus. So unfortunately, even though they would have liked

0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 1>to host that debate, they won't. I wonder why they

0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:23.800
<v Speaker 1>couldn't host the debate like that. Seems like a very

0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:25.840
<v Speaker 1>easy thing to be able to socially distansion. He's got

0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:29.680
<v Speaker 1>two candidates. I'm sure the security around somewhere. It's not

0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 1>like the moderator is right next to the people like that.

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Seems like it can be a very easy thing, the

0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:39.760
<v Speaker 1>socially distanced that. And we were talking about these stimulus

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:42.400
<v Speaker 1>checks in this next round. While Mitch McConnell has unveiled

0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:46.280
<v Speaker 1>the Heels Act, the Republican Heels Act to address the

0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:50.040
<v Speaker 1>coronavirus pandemic, there's another round of twelve hundred dollars stimulus

0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:52.960
<v Speaker 1>checks on the way. According to McConnell, this bill is

0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 1>expected to cost about one trillion dollars. It gives a

0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:59.480
<v Speaker 1>liability shield to businesses and funds to schools, and it

0:07:59.600 --> 0:08:02.800
<v Speaker 1>caps at seventy percent of pre pandemic pay That is

0:08:02.880 --> 0:08:06.600
<v Speaker 1>the unemployment insurance supplement that lapsed last week. So this

0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.280
<v Speaker 1>time the stimulus checks will include extra cast for people

0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:12.720
<v Speaker 1>with adult dependence and if you have an adult or

0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:14.960
<v Speaker 1>child that's depending on you, you qualify for a five

0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:17.720
<v Speaker 1>hundred dollars payments. So if you earn up to seventy

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:20.160
<v Speaker 1>five thousand dollars, you get the full twelve hundred, but

0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:22.320
<v Speaker 1>if you earn more than that, you'll get smaller amounts,

0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:24.640
<v Speaker 1>and people who earn over ninety nine thousand dollars again

0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:28.680
<v Speaker 1>won't get any money. All right, People out there with

0:08:28.720 --> 0:08:31.080
<v Speaker 1>their phones turned off and the only way they can

<v Speaker 1>a little fancy December. Yeah. I was born New Year's Eve,

0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 1>off your chess, mama. All right, I want to get

0:10:16.559 --> 0:10:18.599
<v Speaker 1>this off my chest. And I'm kind of horse this

0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:21.360
<v Speaker 1>morning because I worked like eighty hours a week. But

0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm tired of these parents that are petitioning the Cobb

0:10:25.480 --> 0:10:29.320
<v Speaker 1>County school Board to go back to school. These kids

0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:33.319
<v Speaker 1>out here are going to go through coronavirus just like adults,

0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:36.559
<v Speaker 1>and they're willing is to sign a waiver, a liability

0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.760
<v Speaker 1>waiver that said they won't hold a school board liable

0:10:40.040 --> 0:10:44.240
<v Speaker 1>if their children get sick, name or even die for coronavirus.

0:10:44.320 --> 0:10:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Heard about that the school system is not the daycare center.

0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:52.960
<v Speaker 1>That's your responsibility to take care of your own kids

0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:55.880
<v Speaker 1>and keep your kids safe. And the more I hear

0:10:55.920 --> 0:10:59.480
<v Speaker 1>that they petitioned these school boys, they're stupid. Yeah, well,

0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:01.480
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. I'm not bringing my kids

0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:02.920
<v Speaker 1>to so I'm not taking my kids at school. But

0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:04.679
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of people that have to work and

0:11:04.840 --> 0:11:06.520
<v Speaker 1>feel like if they have to work, they need their

0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:08.480
<v Speaker 1>kids to get an education, so they're willing to put

0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 1>their school their kids back in school. You can't be

0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>mad at that. But that's when the parents need to

0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:16.839
<v Speaker 1>come together and we need to find a way that

0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:19.880
<v Speaker 1>we can keep each other's kids. Where as the grandma's

0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:24.600
<v Speaker 1>where the auntie's worth the cousins not expect the school

0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:26.800
<v Speaker 1>to do it. Yeah, it's such a tough position to

0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:29.800
<v Speaker 1>be in. Um. I think what makes it really bad

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:32.600
<v Speaker 1>and heartbreaking is having to sign away that says I'm

0:11:32.720 --> 0:11:36.040
<v Speaker 1>fine if something happens to my child, if my child dies,

0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:40.400
<v Speaker 1>and something like that. That right there, I couldn't even matter. Yeah. Never,

0:11:40.679 --> 0:11:43.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm a mom and I would never say, hey, let

0:11:43.840 --> 0:11:47.079
<v Speaker 1>my child die so they can go to schools. To me,

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>that is the craziest, don't I don't think that's what

0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:52.480
<v Speaker 1>that letters says. I think the letters just the school

0:11:52.559 --> 0:11:54.800
<v Speaker 1>is just not taking responsibility there. You know, I don't

0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:56.400
<v Speaker 1>think the school is gonna try to kill a kid.

0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:59.280
<v Speaker 1>I think they're gonna do everything possible. But when parents

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:01.160
<v Speaker 1>go in and out, back, back and forth to work,

0:12:01.200 --> 0:12:02.880
<v Speaker 1>a parent could bring that to their child, you know.

0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:05.120
<v Speaker 1>But you know, some people don't have the luxury of

0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:08.000
<v Speaker 1>having grandparents and aunties around, so they you know, that

0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:09.920
<v Speaker 1>they stuck and they have to do what they have

0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:12.120
<v Speaker 1>to do. You know, I'm not taking my kids to school,

0:12:12.160 --> 0:12:14.240
<v Speaker 1>but some parents don't have that choice that Some parents

0:12:14.320 --> 0:12:15.920
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's okay and they're gonna you know, they

0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:17.760
<v Speaker 1>want their kids to get the education right, and they

0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:19.640
<v Speaker 1>are telling you you don't have to send your kids

0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:21.719
<v Speaker 1>to school. Right, you have the choice to say yes

0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:28.200
<v Speaker 1>or no. Yeah, that's the only said no. They agreed

0:12:28.320 --> 0:12:31.319
<v Speaker 1>everything that's going to go virtual as of last night.

0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:34.800
<v Speaker 1>But there are still parents that will still want other

0:12:34.920 --> 0:12:37.360
<v Speaker 1>teachers to step up and say we'll do it, and

0:12:37.480 --> 0:12:40.160
<v Speaker 1>the teachers are saying no. They're even teachers. They are

0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.599
<v Speaker 1>taking their own family leaves so that they don't have

0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:45.760
<v Speaker 1>to go back to school and they shouldn't have to

0:12:45.840 --> 0:12:49.440
<v Speaker 1>sacrifice family leaves because they're scared they're going to say

0:12:49.840 --> 0:12:53.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna get coronavirus, all right. I just can't imagine it,

0:12:53.800 --> 0:12:55.480
<v Speaker 1>all right, I just I just don't understand why all

0:12:55.600 --> 0:12:59.280
<v Speaker 1>peoples don't provide the option, like there should be an option.

0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:01.240
<v Speaker 1>There should be an you for kids that you know,

0:13:01.640 --> 0:13:03.959
<v Speaker 1>for parents don't feel comfortable bringing their children to school,

0:13:04.000 --> 0:13:07.080

0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:45.040
<v Speaker 1>a loss for words about how they're sending the kids

0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:48.000
<v Speaker 1>back to school. I feel like it's too early. I

0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:50.760
<v Speaker 1>have three kids of my own, and I'm not sending

0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:53.600
<v Speaker 1>mind back. It has put me in a situation where

0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:57.360
<v Speaker 1>I just got the promotion at my job. I've been

0:14:57.400 --> 0:15:00.040
<v Speaker 1>there for three years and I finally climbed up the

0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:02.440
<v Speaker 1>latter to where I want to be. But now they

0:15:02.560 --> 0:15:05.760
<v Speaker 1>have this pandemic going on. It's not safe when the

0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:09.720
<v Speaker 1>kids coming home just with colds all the time. You know,

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.040
<v Speaker 1>they never really washing their hands like that at school.

0:15:12.080 --> 0:15:14.880
<v Speaker 1>It's no one to be to ensure that they have

0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.840
<v Speaker 1>masks on all day. It was to say that don't

0:15:18.880 --> 0:15:22.880
<v Speaker 1>have the corona. So I'm putting, I'm putting in a

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:26.200
<v Speaker 1>situation like go to work or stay home and be

0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:28.200
<v Speaker 1>at home, you know, a teacher, so I have to

0:15:28.280 --> 0:15:30.840
<v Speaker 1>make that choice. And it's just it's not right. America

0:15:30.960 --> 0:15:32.680
<v Speaker 1>is not doing right right now. So I wanted to

0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:35.000
<v Speaker 1>get that off my chet. How old are your kids?

0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I just said that thirty seconds ago. It's as it

0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:40.520
<v Speaker 1>shows how left up America really is, even more so

0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:44.280
<v Speaker 1>than this, Yes, how old are you kids? I have

0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:47.920
<v Speaker 1>a nine year old, in eleven year old and my

0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:53.560
<v Speaker 1>third when she's sixteen years old. Thank you, thank you.

0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:57.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing logistics, and I mean it seems like only

0:15:57.640 --> 0:15:59.560
<v Speaker 1>even will be doing it for a little while because

0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:02.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm to be at home, you know, home schooling, right,

0:16:02.680 --> 0:16:05.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm not telling back. So it's like I came up

0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:07.440
<v Speaker 1>and there's no aid for us. They don't they don't

0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:10.840
<v Speaker 1>talk about that. What are we gonna do. Yeah. I

0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:14.280
<v Speaker 1>can't imagine no parents choosing their job over the well

0:16:14.400 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 1>being up their kids, because you're going to work to

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:20.240
<v Speaker 1>feed those kids. If those kids are dead, what's the point,

0:16:20.520 --> 0:16:22.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, as those kids get extremely sick, Like, what's

0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:25.200
<v Speaker 1>the points I can't I can't imagine anybody being put

0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:26.920
<v Speaker 1>in a position where they're gonna they gotta choose their

0:16:27.000 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 1>job over their kids, and they're gonna choose their job.

0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:32.960
<v Speaker 1>I can't see that, right, And schools start next week, Lord,

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:36.040
<v Speaker 1>next week. So I just wanted to get that off

0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:38.600
<v Speaker 1>my chest. And I hope parents just be saying and

0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:42.240
<v Speaker 1>reconsider sending their kids to school, all right, thank you,

0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:45.840
<v Speaker 1>thank you, you have a great day, you too, and

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:47.840
<v Speaker 1>say that's that's some of the choices people gotta make,

0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:51.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, Do I do I work and financially support

0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:53.480
<v Speaker 1>my family, or say I can't work and stay at home.

0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:56.640
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know if if any any any parent,

0:16:56.960 --> 0:17:00.320
<v Speaker 1>any any parents probably is ninety five percent going who's

0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:03.720
<v Speaker 1>the well being of their kids over their job. That's

0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:06.840
<v Speaker 1>just that's just natural parental instinct, especially the mothers. Yeah,

0:17:06.880 --> 0:17:08.840
<v Speaker 1>but you know there's a lot of parents that's out

0:17:08.920 --> 0:17:10.920
<v Speaker 1>and about, right, now you know what I mean that's

0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:13.600
<v Speaker 1>out and about and hanging out and going out and this,

0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:15.000
<v Speaker 1>that and the other. A lot of parents are still

0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:17.080
<v Speaker 1>doing that as well too. I ain't talking about them,

0:17:18.520 --> 0:17:21.200
<v Speaker 1>because if you mean about like this in the clubs

0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:23.199
<v Speaker 1>and that parties and stuff like that, Yeah, I mean

0:17:23.200 --> 0:17:27.080
<v Speaker 1>because if you are, we're talking about what we're talking

0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:30.720
<v Speaker 1>about people who have a better sense of responsibility than that.

0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:34.000
<v Speaker 1>People who literally next week have to decide whether or

0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:35.920
<v Speaker 1>not to take their kids to school, are to go

0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:37.840
<v Speaker 1>to work, not the people that's just out and about

0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:40.440
<v Speaker 1>party and having a good time. Yeah, those parents, kids

0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:42.280
<v Speaker 1>are going to school. We'll get it off your chest.

0:17:42.359 --> 0:17:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Eight hundred five eight five, one oh five one. We

0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:47.520
<v Speaker 1>got roomors on the way. Yes, let's talk about Oprah.

0:17:47.840 --> 0:17:50.560
<v Speaker 1>She is back on. We'll talk about her new television

0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:53.960
<v Speaker 1>show and we'll tell you why Ellen's degenerous show is

0:17:54.000 --> 0:17:56.760
<v Speaker 1>being investigated. All right, we'll get into that next keeping

0:17:56.840 --> 0:17:59.800
<v Speaker 1>lock this to Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club.

0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:08.920
<v Speaker 1>She's filling the team. This is the Ruble Report with

0:18:09.080 --> 0:18:12.800
<v Speaker 1>Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well, it looks like

0:18:12.920 --> 0:18:16.200
<v Speaker 1>congratulations are in order for Drakey yet again. He has

0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:19.880
<v Speaker 1>broke another record. He's surpassed Madonna for the most top

0:18:20.040 --> 0:18:23.200
<v Speaker 1>ten hits and Hot one hundred history. So he just

0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:26.520
<v Speaker 1>got his thirty ninth and fortieth top ten hits. That's

0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:30.040
<v Speaker 1>for being featured on DJ Khalid's latest singles, pop Star,

0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:33.760
<v Speaker 1>and also Greece, which opened that numbers thirty and number

0:18:33.800 --> 0:18:37.800
<v Speaker 1>eight in the Billboard Hot one hundred. Welcongratulate gradulated hit

0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:41.280
<v Speaker 1>the Aubrey Go Yes. So right below him, Madonna has

0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:44.479
<v Speaker 1>thirty eight, then the Beatles thirty four, Rihanna thirty one,

0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Michael Jackson thirty, Mariah twenty eight, and Stevie Wonder twenty eight,

0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:50.600
<v Speaker 1>but he has forty. All right, Yeah, I have a

0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:53.080
<v Speaker 1>feeling that Rihanna's gonna break that record if and when

0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:55.720
<v Speaker 1>she decided to ever put out another. All right, now,

0:18:55.800 --> 0:18:59.479
<v Speaker 1>Ellen DeGeneres the show her workplace is under investigation by

0:18:59.560 --> 0:19:02.399
<v Speaker 1>Warner Media. We've been hearing a lot of things about

0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Ellen Degenerous and how she's not the nicest person behind

0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:07.520
<v Speaker 1>the scenes. You know, She's been called out by a

0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:10.600
<v Speaker 1>few different people on Twitter and other people in the

0:19:10.680 --> 0:19:13.639
<v Speaker 1>past have said, including comedian Kevin Porter, said that she

0:19:13.880 --> 0:19:16.159
<v Speaker 1>was one of the meanest people alive, and he did

0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:20.520
<v Speaker 1>a whole viral Twitter thread encouraging anybody who encountered her

0:19:21.040 --> 0:19:24.760
<v Speaker 1>to come up and respond about their insane stories, and

0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:27.800
<v Speaker 1>people definitely did. There were thousands of replies. A new

0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:30.679
<v Speaker 1>staff member was told every day she picked someone different

0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:33.560
<v Speaker 1>to really hate. It's not your fault. Just suck it

0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:35.120
<v Speaker 1>up for the day, and she'll be mean to someone

0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:38.240
<v Speaker 1>else the next day. And that new stafford said they

0:19:38.280 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't believe it at first, but it did end up

0:19:40.040 --> 0:19:44.520
<v Speaker 1>being entirely true. So now they're investigating for a workplace hostility.

0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:48.000
<v Speaker 1>And you know, they said, this totally goes against the

0:19:48.040 --> 0:19:50.040
<v Speaker 1>message that she recites at the end of every show,

0:19:50.359 --> 0:19:52.879
<v Speaker 1>be kind to one another. I wonder what exactly did

0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:56.000
<v Speaker 1>they call me? Because tough doesn't always equate the mean,

0:19:56.720 --> 0:20:01.320
<v Speaker 1>and I've seen a lot of women who get called mean. No,

0:20:01.480 --> 0:20:03.880
<v Speaker 1>there's a difference between to me, would just be getting called,

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:07.159
<v Speaker 1>you know, a boss. It's not. It's a difference between

0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:09.560
<v Speaker 1>tough and mean. And but that's why I asked, I

0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:11.760
<v Speaker 1>wonder what they call me? Like, what did they call me?

0:20:12.359 --> 0:20:14.320
<v Speaker 1>And I think there's if there's enough people saying it,

0:20:14.400 --> 0:20:16.879
<v Speaker 1>and not even just people at her staff, but you know,

0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:19.920
<v Speaker 1>there's stories about her going to restaurants and complaining about

0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:23.359
<v Speaker 1>a person's nails that was serving them, and just you know,

0:20:23.480 --> 0:20:26.280
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of weird things. I mean, that's you, Charlot Mane,

0:20:26.280 --> 0:20:31.080
<v Speaker 1>you worked. She tough or mean or neither? Um, I

0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:34.000
<v Speaker 1>would say she was tough, Okay. Wendy was a perfectionist.

0:20:34.119 --> 0:20:36.520
<v Speaker 1>She she operated on a high level, and she wanted

0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:38.520
<v Speaker 1>that from everyone around her. So as certain things that

0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure some people would consider mean, you know, yelling, screaming,

0:20:42.359 --> 0:20:46.040
<v Speaker 1>cursing at people, but I just considered it tough. She

0:20:46.160 --> 0:20:48.640
<v Speaker 1>was meaning the guests for sure, though, like a celebrities

0:20:48.800 --> 0:20:51.239
<v Speaker 1>came on the show. But but those of us who

0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:53.320
<v Speaker 1>worked for her, I would say, just tough. Asked me,

0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:57.240
<v Speaker 1>asked me, was miss Jones used to work for Miss Jones? Correct?

0:20:57.440 --> 0:21:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Was Miss Jones mean a tough? See? Both she was

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:06.240
<v Speaker 1>mean and she was tough. She was both, Okay, both.

0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:09.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to say both my aunts. To see, it's

0:21:09.160 --> 0:21:11.560
<v Speaker 1>hard for me to call Wendy mean. No, because hurt people.

0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:13.440
<v Speaker 1>Hurt people, you know what I'm saying. And when I

0:21:13.520 --> 0:21:15.640
<v Speaker 1>look back on this situation and what he was going

0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:18.639
<v Speaker 1>through and everything she had to endure, you know, in

0:21:18.720 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 1>her married life. I can understand why she would. She

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:25.920
<v Speaker 1>would possibly be seen as coming off mean to certain people. Yeah,

0:21:26.000 --> 0:21:27.760
<v Speaker 1>well she would when it came to people who worked

0:21:27.800 --> 0:21:29.760
<v Speaker 1>with her. She was tough. When he came to those

0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:32.399
<v Speaker 1>guests who came on the show and other celebrities that

0:21:32.520 --> 0:21:35.640
<v Speaker 1>she was talking about me, Yeah, well, miss Jones was both.

0:21:35.720 --> 0:21:37.200
<v Speaker 1>She was both. She I mean, it made me tougher,

0:21:37.240 --> 0:21:40.040
<v Speaker 1>but she was both mean and tough. She didn't play

0:21:40.040 --> 0:21:42.560
<v Speaker 1>about her ish. All right, Well, Oprah's coming back to

0:21:42.640 --> 0:21:46.520
<v Speaker 1>television since we're talking about TV, so she's going to

0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:49.119
<v Speaker 1>be doing her own show now and it's going to

0:21:49.160 --> 0:21:52.080
<v Speaker 1>be taking on a racism. It's a new TV discussion

0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:55.760
<v Speaker 1>series for Apple TV, The Oprah Conversation, with debuts July thirtieth,

0:21:56.359 --> 0:22:01.520
<v Speaker 1>and it's basically talking with white people about racism and

0:22:02.600 --> 0:22:07.080
<v Speaker 1>bringing humanity back to the conversation according to Oprah. Okay, yeah,

0:22:07.200 --> 0:22:09.639
<v Speaker 1>so I'm sure a lot of people will have missed

0:22:09.640 --> 0:22:12.880
<v Speaker 1>her having her own daytime talk show. But her magazine, Oh,

0:22:13.040 --> 0:22:15.600
<v Speaker 1>the Oprah Magazine is actually not going to be available

0:22:15.640 --> 0:22:18.800
<v Speaker 1>in print anymore. They said they're going digital. So that's

0:22:19.160 --> 0:22:21.840
<v Speaker 1>the brand celebrating twenty years of Oh, they're thinking about

0:22:21.880 --> 0:22:24.399
<v Speaker 1>what's next. They said, the partnership and the brand are

0:22:24.440 --> 0:22:26.960
<v Speaker 1>not going away. It's a natural next step for the brand.

0:22:26.960 --> 0:22:30.560
<v Speaker 1>It'll be more digitally centric. Okay for all the Oprah

0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:32.520
<v Speaker 1>fans out there, And you know, I just wanted to

0:22:32.600 --> 0:22:35.000
<v Speaker 1>bring this up since we've been talking about what's happening

0:22:35.160 --> 0:22:37.200
<v Speaker 1>with schools and people having to sign a waiver to

0:22:37.240 --> 0:22:39.879
<v Speaker 1>send their kids to school. Emirates the airline has a

0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:43.720
<v Speaker 1>new strategy. They need some passengers to get on their

0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:46.760
<v Speaker 1>flights in the midst of this pandemic. You know, they

0:22:46.800 --> 0:22:49.280
<v Speaker 1>are only operating at ten percent right now. So what

0:22:49.440 --> 0:22:53.040
<v Speaker 1>they've decided to do is they're going to cover medical expenses,

0:22:53.720 --> 0:22:58.239
<v Speaker 1>pay for quarantine costs and hotel rooms, everything for up

0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:00.560
<v Speaker 1>to two weeks, and if the worst happens, if you

0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:03.680
<v Speaker 1>happen to die, they'll also pay for your funeral. That

0:23:03.880 --> 0:23:07.880
<v Speaker 1>is available for travel between now and October thirty. First,

0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:09.720
<v Speaker 1>they said it's valid for thirty one days from the

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.040
<v Speaker 1>moment that you take your first flight, and it covers

0:23:12.080 --> 0:23:15.080
<v Speaker 1>you even if you travel to another city. So they'll

0:23:15.080 --> 0:23:17.440
<v Speaker 1>be covering that insurance for you. To try to encourage

0:23:17.480 --> 0:23:20.720
<v Speaker 1>people who are scared to travel to travel. Oh, that's

0:23:20.800 --> 0:23:23.720
<v Speaker 1>that's nice him, thanks for covering my funeral. I'm good.

0:23:25.240 --> 0:23:27.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm good. As soon as I see that death wave,

0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:29.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm cool. I don't think there's no way I gotta

0:23:29.800 --> 0:23:33.520
<v Speaker 1>be that bad. I'll be right. All right. Well, I'm

0:23:33.520 --> 0:23:36.239
<v Speaker 1>Angela Yee And that is your rumor reports. All right,

<v Speaker 1>thank you, miss Yee. Now we got front page news

0:23:38.320 --> 0:23:41.120
<v Speaker 1>coming out, yes, and let's talk about this next round

0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:44.359
<v Speaker 1>of stimulus packages. We'll tell you what they've decided. Also,

0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:48.480
<v Speaker 1>is there a coronavirus vaccine that will be coming out

0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:51.680
<v Speaker 1>sometime soon. We'll tell you what drug is in phase three?

0:23:52.200 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, we'll get into that next. Keeping locked this

0:23:54.080 --> 0:23:58.399
<v Speaker 1>to Breakfast club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,

0:23:58.600 --> 0:24:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Angela Yee, Charlomie the guy, We all the Breakfast Club.

0:24:02.160 --> 0:24:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Let's get into some front page news where we're starting you. Well,

0:24:08.320 --> 0:24:10.879
<v Speaker 1>let's start with Mitch McConnell unveiling the Heels Act with

0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:14.400
<v Speaker 1>twelve hundred dollars stimulus checks. Another round of those can

0:24:14.520 --> 0:24:16.960
<v Speaker 1>be expected. They said it will costs about one trillion

0:24:17.040 --> 0:24:20.480
<v Speaker 1>dollars and they'll also be giving a liability shill to

0:24:20.600 --> 0:24:23.640
<v Speaker 1>businesses and funds to schools. It caps at seventy percent

0:24:23.720 --> 0:24:27.320
<v Speaker 1>of pre pandemic pay. That is the federal unemployment insurance

0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:31.080
<v Speaker 1>supplement that lapsed last week. So according to this acronym,

0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:35.760
<v Speaker 1>HILLS is health, economic Assistance, Liability and schools. So right now,

0:24:36.080 --> 0:24:39.639
<v Speaker 1>what they are saying is adults turning up to seventy

0:24:39.680 --> 0:24:42.200
<v Speaker 1>five thousand dollars. Again they get the full twelve hundred dollars,

0:24:42.240 --> 0:24:44.240
<v Speaker 1>but adults earning more but get smaller amounts, and then

0:24:44.280 --> 0:24:46.400
<v Speaker 1>when you get up to ninety nine thousand, you don't

0:24:46.440 --> 0:24:49.320
<v Speaker 1>get anything. And they also are giving five hundred dollars

0:24:49.440 --> 0:24:53.239
<v Speaker 1>payment for adults or child dependence, so not just if

0:24:53.280 --> 0:24:55.280
<v Speaker 1>you have kids, but also if you take care of

0:24:55.359 --> 0:24:58.640
<v Speaker 1>an adult. Okay, yes, that's beautiful. And I'm gonna tell

0:24:58.640 --> 0:25:01.040
<v Speaker 1>you something else, man, They should pay for parents that

0:25:01.160 --> 0:25:03.480
<v Speaker 1>have to stay home and home school their children. There

0:25:03.480 --> 0:25:05.760
<v Speaker 1>should be some type of payment for parents who have

0:25:05.880 --> 0:25:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to I don't know, quit their job or take a

0:25:08.560 --> 0:25:10.879
<v Speaker 1>leaver apthoms from their job or something in order to

0:25:10.920 --> 0:25:13.600
<v Speaker 1>stay home because they don't feel safe sending their kids

0:25:13.600 --> 0:25:15.240
<v Speaker 1>back to school. They should get some type of payment

0:25:15.280 --> 0:25:17.760
<v Speaker 1>for that as well, or some type of health absolutely

0:25:19.080 --> 0:25:22.200
<v Speaker 1>all right, Now, let's talk about a coronavirus vaccine in

0:25:22.280 --> 0:25:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the US. The first phase three clinical trial of a

0:25:26.080 --> 0:25:32.040
<v Speaker 1>coronavirus vaccine started yesterday. So this investigational vaccine US developed

0:25:32.080 --> 0:25:35.359
<v Speaker 1>by a company called Moderna. It's a biotech company and

0:25:35.520 --> 0:25:39.680
<v Speaker 1>the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. So according

0:25:39.720 --> 0:25:42.639
<v Speaker 1>to Maderna, the trial is to be conducted at nearly

0:25:42.720 --> 0:25:45.560
<v Speaker 1>one hundred US research sites and will enroll about thirty

0:25:45.600 --> 0:25:49.680
<v Speaker 1>thousand adult volunteers. That evaluates the safety of course of

0:25:49.760 --> 0:25:53.720
<v Speaker 1>the Maderna vaccine and whether it can prevent symptomatic COVID

0:25:53.840 --> 0:25:57.480
<v Speaker 1>nineteen after two doses, among other outcomes. They said that

0:25:57.680 --> 0:26:01.800
<v Speaker 1>the side effects are minimal. It had mild side effects

0:26:01.840 --> 0:26:04.879
<v Speaker 1>like fatigue, chills, had ache, muscle pain and pain at

0:26:04.920 --> 0:26:10.280
<v Speaker 1>the injection site. Well you first, okay, tell me about

0:26:10.320 --> 0:26:12.560
<v Speaker 1>it all right, now, enough of y'all go out there

0:26:12.560 --> 0:26:14.800
<v Speaker 1>and take it from me and mind don't have to okay,

0:26:14.960 --> 0:26:17.200
<v Speaker 1>do you think hi? And you know they're in phase three.

0:26:17.320 --> 0:26:20.199
<v Speaker 1>Phase one isn't a small number of people and they

0:26:20.320 --> 0:26:22.880
<v Speaker 1>see if it's safe. Then in phase two they expand

0:26:22.920 --> 0:26:24.679
<v Speaker 1>the study and that vaccine is given to people who

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:27.520
<v Speaker 1>have characteristics like AIDS and physical health. And now in

0:26:27.600 --> 0:26:30.560
<v Speaker 1>phase three, the vaccine is given to thousands of people

0:26:30.680 --> 0:26:33.080
<v Speaker 1>and tested for safety. So we said it's going to

0:26:33.119 --> 0:26:36.000
<v Speaker 1>be about thirty thousand people in this phase three trial. Well,

0:26:36.080 --> 0:26:38.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, I thought, I've seen something in Atlanta where

0:26:38.000 --> 0:26:40.480
<v Speaker 1>they would have Phase four and they would interviewing a

0:26:40.520 --> 0:26:43.679
<v Speaker 1>woman last night on one of these shows, and they

0:26:43.680 --> 0:26:45.600
<v Speaker 1>would like, you know, she feels good, she feels like

0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:47.399
<v Speaker 1>she's helping, but she didn't know if she got the

0:26:47.480 --> 0:26:49.600
<v Speaker 1>vaccine or the placebo. She wasn't sure. They don't tell

0:26:49.640 --> 0:26:52.560
<v Speaker 1>them so, but they were I think, well, this is

0:26:52.600 --> 0:26:56.200
<v Speaker 1>the first phase three study and development in the US

0:26:56.440 --> 0:26:59.880
<v Speaker 1>of cod COVID nineteen vaccine, and now fires are also

0:27:00.000 --> 0:27:03.520
<v Speaker 1>as an experimental coronavirus vaccine, and they got the FDA

0:27:03.720 --> 0:27:06.680
<v Speaker 1>nod for advanced trials in the US as well. So

0:27:07.720 --> 0:27:12.640
<v Speaker 1>they said their vaccine is slightly different. It was it flavored.

0:27:13.280 --> 0:27:18.600
<v Speaker 1>It comes in flavors. They're also including up to thirty

0:27:18.640 --> 0:27:22.440
<v Speaker 1>thousand participants. But they said that THEIRS uses an experimental

0:27:22.520 --> 0:27:26.480
<v Speaker 1>approach that employs genetic material to stimulate an immune response

0:27:26.520 --> 0:27:29.480
<v Speaker 1>against a key part of the coronavirus. I know that

0:27:29.560 --> 0:27:31.520
<v Speaker 1>phase thing hasn't worked out too well. Okay, they had

0:27:31.560 --> 0:27:33.560
<v Speaker 1>phases to reopen the country. I think we all phase

0:27:33.680 --> 0:27:35.640
<v Speaker 1>nineteen in a lot of these places, and it doesn't

0:27:35.680 --> 0:27:37.840
<v Speaker 1>look too good. And it's still in that open New York,

0:27:37.880 --> 0:27:40.520
<v Speaker 1>New Jersey area. You still can't go inside to eat

0:27:40.760 --> 0:27:42.879
<v Speaker 1>in a restaurant yet, so it's still a little crazy.

0:27:43.240 --> 0:27:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know nothing about phase one, phase two, phase three,

0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:47.680
<v Speaker 1>phase for it doesn't work is what I need to know.

0:27:48.040 --> 0:27:50.919
<v Speaker 1>All right, Clearly these phaces things ain't working all right.

0:27:51.000 --> 0:27:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Staples is requiring all customers to wear masks, and their

0:27:54.000 --> 0:27:56.720
<v Speaker 1>stores and the Walmart will not enforce their rules on

0:27:56.800 --> 0:27:59.040
<v Speaker 1>wearing masks because they fear that the staff could be

0:27:59.119 --> 0:28:03.040
<v Speaker 1>attacked by shoppers who are angry that they're being challenged.

0:28:03.080 --> 0:28:04.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, people who try to come in the store

0:28:04.640 --> 0:28:07.680
<v Speaker 1>without a mask on and then they attack the employees there.

0:28:07.800 --> 0:28:10.920
<v Speaker 1>So they want to avoid physical confrontations. But staff members

0:28:11.000 --> 0:28:13.280
<v Speaker 1>have been instructed to still serve people who refuse to

0:28:13.359 --> 0:28:17.680
<v Speaker 1>wear one. Walmart cut the bus. Walmart can afford arm

0:28:17.800 --> 0:28:21.800
<v Speaker 1>security at the door. That's letting people know you can't

0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:24.040
<v Speaker 1>come in without a mask on. And ain't nobody gonna

0:28:24.040 --> 0:28:26.160
<v Speaker 1>beef with the armed security at the door. So knock

0:28:26.200 --> 0:28:27.479
<v Speaker 1>it off. Don't even you don't even got to put

0:28:27.520 --> 0:28:31.479
<v Speaker 1>your employees in that position. Walmart, okay, at don't make

0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:33.879
<v Speaker 1>me doing the Walmart of the billion dollar corporation. They

0:28:33.920 --> 0:28:36.960
<v Speaker 1>can afford to have armed security at the door, having

0:28:37.000 --> 0:28:40.760
<v Speaker 1>people reinforced, enforced the mask laws. So stop it, all right.

0:28:40.840 --> 0:28:43.080
<v Speaker 1>And Google is adopting their work from home until at

0:28:43.120 --> 0:28:46.560
<v Speaker 1>least July of twenty twenty one. That's what a person

0:28:46.680 --> 0:28:49.360
<v Speaker 1>familiar with the matter is saying. Previously, they had said

0:28:49.800 --> 0:28:52.000
<v Speaker 1>their employees would be working remotely through the end of

0:28:52.080 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty but now that has been extended until July

0:28:55.560 --> 0:28:57.400
<v Speaker 1>of twenty twenty one, and that was sent out in

0:28:57.480 --> 0:29:01.320
<v Speaker 1>an email to employees. I think that's going to be

0:29:01.360 --> 0:29:03.760
<v Speaker 1>the new normal in a lot of places. I think

0:29:03.800 --> 0:29:06.600
<v Speaker 1>that a lot of these businesses have realized they don't

0:29:06.640 --> 0:29:08.920
<v Speaker 1>got to spend all this money on breaking mortar. It's

0:29:08.920 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a lot of working from home from a

0:29:11.200 --> 0:29:13.760
<v Speaker 1>lot of these companies real soon. Abolutely. I read of

0:29:13.800 --> 0:29:16.160
<v Speaker 1>their buildings all together and just had like one office somewhere.

0:29:17.880 --> 0:29:21.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, that is your front page news. Now

0:29:21.960 --> 0:29:24.880

0:29:43.760 --> 0:29:47.480
<v Speaker 1>happy here as usual. Well, congratulations first and foremost for

0:29:47.840 --> 0:29:50.400
<v Speaker 1>having a movie Tijuana Jackson. I know you've been talking

0:29:50.440 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 1>about this movie for such a long time. But you

0:29:52.680 --> 0:29:55.719
<v Speaker 1>wrote it, directed it, starting it, edited it, did everything right,

0:29:56.360 --> 0:29:58.520
<v Speaker 1>That's right. I had to. Yeah, I believe did, and

0:29:59.000 --> 0:30:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad that I did too. Why were you committed

0:30:01.680 --> 0:30:05.200
<v Speaker 1>to doing it yourself like that? Doing everything? Because the

0:30:05.360 --> 0:30:09.160
<v Speaker 1>characters raw, the characters, you know, the things that I

0:30:09.240 --> 0:30:12.720
<v Speaker 1>say on the YouTube channel kind of at some point

0:30:13.080 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 1>got the whole channel demonetized. They stopped YouTube, stopped sending

0:30:16.800 --> 0:30:21.000
<v Speaker 1>out up because it was so controversial. And that's the yeah,

0:30:21.440 --> 0:30:23.640
<v Speaker 1>and there's this. I've been doing that character on YouTube

0:30:23.680 --> 0:30:26.400
<v Speaker 1>for at least twelve years, and that's the whole thing.

0:30:26.720 --> 0:30:29.920
<v Speaker 1>That The irony with Hollywood is what they'll do is

0:30:29.960 --> 0:30:31.880
<v Speaker 1>they'll tell you to tone down the language so that

0:30:31.960 --> 0:30:34.000
<v Speaker 1>they can you can reach a broader audience. But then

0:30:34.040 --> 0:30:36.600
<v Speaker 1>they'll turn around and say that because it's a black lead,

0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:40.520
<v Speaker 1>we can only distribute it to herb in America. So

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:44.120
<v Speaker 1>there's like this contradiction of like watering down your product

0:30:44.200 --> 0:30:46.360
<v Speaker 1>to deliver your products to the people that you made

0:30:46.360 --> 0:30:49.080
<v Speaker 1>it for. So um, it was, it was. It was

0:30:49.160 --> 0:30:51.840
<v Speaker 1>important at least for me in this era of like

0:30:52.160 --> 0:30:55.360
<v Speaker 1>how digital plats, you know, all these different digital platforms

0:30:55.400 --> 0:30:58.840
<v Speaker 1>to try to at least take a shot at actual ownership. Well,

0:30:59.120 --> 0:31:02.200
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about to Tijuana Jackson for those who may

0:31:02.280 --> 0:31:04.920
<v Speaker 1>not have been watching the YouTube for the past twelve years,

0:31:05.040 --> 0:31:08.520
<v Speaker 1>like like, who is Tiouana Jackson? What's your vision for him?

0:31:08.840 --> 0:31:11.000
<v Speaker 1>My vision for him is this. I created the character

0:31:11.080 --> 0:31:13.920
<v Speaker 1>really because I wanted to. I want to educate a

0:31:14.040 --> 0:31:19.280
<v Speaker 1>demographic of people who were not afforded this education. They

0:31:19.360 --> 0:31:20.920
<v Speaker 1>grew up in the same hood that I grew up,

0:31:20.960 --> 0:31:23.240
<v Speaker 1>and grew up in the same community, the same dysfunction

0:31:23.320 --> 0:31:26.280
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in. Never learned about finance, never learned

0:31:26.280 --> 0:31:29.880
<v Speaker 1>about personal development, never learned about the preservation of wealth.

0:31:29.920 --> 0:31:32.160
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, I'm gonna use People look at

0:31:32.200 --> 0:31:34.840
<v Speaker 1>me and they're like, he's so romedy, so damned corny,

0:31:35.120 --> 0:31:36.960
<v Speaker 1>they won't listen to me. But if I created this

0:31:37.120 --> 0:31:39.920
<v Speaker 1>character who was funny and over and like this kind

0:31:39.960 --> 0:31:42.960
<v Speaker 1>of like overly abrasive, I felt like people would connect

0:31:43.040 --> 0:31:45.840
<v Speaker 1>better because they wouldn't really be judging me while listening

0:31:45.920 --> 0:31:48.680
<v Speaker 1>to it. And it just took off within like two

0:31:48.800 --> 0:31:52.360
<v Speaker 1>episodes online. The New York Times did a full write

0:31:52.440 --> 0:31:54.840
<v Speaker 1>up This is back in the day, and then people

0:31:54.880 --> 0:31:57.600
<v Speaker 1>started catching on. And then some dudes ripped one of

0:31:57.640 --> 0:31:59.440
<v Speaker 1>the videos and put it on World Saw. He thought

0:31:59.440 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 1>it was a real dude, and then that now TJ

0:32:05.880 --> 0:32:08.400
<v Speaker 1>gives some amazing advice. As we can see, he's a

0:32:08.520 --> 0:32:12.720
<v Speaker 1>motivational speaker, right, and the movie, I guess the way

0:32:12.760 --> 0:32:15.200
<v Speaker 1>the movie starts is he's in jail, he comes home,

0:32:15.240 --> 0:32:16.720
<v Speaker 1>and he decides what he wants to do in life

0:32:16.840 --> 0:32:19.200
<v Speaker 1>is be a motivational speaker and give advice to people.

0:32:19.680 --> 0:32:21.480
<v Speaker 1>But you have to figure out how to make money

0:32:21.880 --> 0:32:24.720
<v Speaker 1>from something like that. Now, who are some motivational speakers

0:32:25.320 --> 0:32:29.720
<v Speaker 1>right that have influenced you? Honest to God, can't tell

0:32:29.800 --> 0:32:35.920
<v Speaker 1>you one motivational speaker really et though. Eric Thomas, Eric Thomas,

0:32:36.000 --> 0:32:38.760
<v Speaker 1>the hip hop Preacher, Eric Thomas he's a great motivational

0:32:38.760 --> 0:32:42.120
<v Speaker 1>speaking speaker. No, no, he is, and he's got his

0:32:42.240 --> 0:32:44.600
<v Speaker 1>own style. I don't I don't know if anybody can

0:32:44.640 --> 0:32:46.760
<v Speaker 1>be a motivational speaker, but I do know that there's

0:32:46.760 --> 0:32:49.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of gurus out there that are hilarious and

0:32:49.360 --> 0:32:53.360
<v Speaker 1>like self proclaimed guru. And Thatfork inspired the whole character

0:32:53.520 --> 0:32:56.080
<v Speaker 1>was the fact that, like Yo, it's almost as if

0:32:56.480 --> 0:32:59.920
<v Speaker 1>you've got like the most dysfunctional people in the world

0:33:00.480 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 1>given advice to people. And I was like the different

0:33:03.720 --> 0:33:06.080
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to take advantage of that because I love the irony.

0:33:06.160 --> 0:33:09.640
<v Speaker 1>So the irony here is you've got the most institutionalized

0:33:09.720 --> 0:33:11.360
<v Speaker 1>dude in the world trying to tell you how to

0:33:11.440 --> 0:33:14.920
<v Speaker 1>liberate yourself. And so in this weird way, I think

0:33:14.960 --> 0:33:18.160
<v Speaker 1>it's a mirror of everybody, because we all to some

0:33:18.320 --> 0:33:21.360
<v Speaker 1>degree or preaching what we most need to learn. What's

0:33:21.400 --> 0:33:25.520
<v Speaker 1>interesting about the TJ character. Most brothers in jail do

0:33:25.880 --> 0:33:29.880
<v Speaker 1>learn to liberate themselves mentally, so their body is trapped physically,

0:33:30.240 --> 0:33:33.320
<v Speaker 1>but mentally and emotionally, they have to take themselves someplace

0:33:33.400 --> 0:33:36.440
<v Speaker 1>else in order just to get by. So he's not

0:33:36.600 --> 0:33:40.280
<v Speaker 1>really institutionalized up here because his mind has been someplace

0:33:40.320 --> 0:33:44.320
<v Speaker 1>out for a long time. Well, okay, the damn Charlemagne.

0:33:44.400 --> 0:33:47.840
<v Speaker 1>That's okay, So let me explain where how I see that. Okay,

0:33:48.400 --> 0:33:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I believe that he had to create an alternative reality

0:33:52.920 --> 0:33:55.240
<v Speaker 1>in order to be able to sustain his dreams while

0:33:55.280 --> 0:33:58.040
<v Speaker 1>he was in the inside, right, But I also believe

0:33:58.640 --> 0:34:02.920
<v Speaker 1>that sadly, the process for that, he's so out of

0:34:03.040 --> 0:34:05.640
<v Speaker 1>touch with the real world. The process for getting there

0:34:06.200 --> 0:34:08.920
<v Speaker 1>is uh is missing. He doesn't really understand it. So

0:34:09.040 --> 0:34:11.680
<v Speaker 1>when he comes outside and he's finally out and free

0:34:11.719 --> 0:34:14.120
<v Speaker 1>and pursuing his dream, he's running all of these a

0:34:14.200 --> 0:34:17.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of these stumbling blocks, but they're kind of the

0:34:17.520 --> 0:34:21.080
<v Speaker 1>self created. He didn't himself so rich. By the way,

0:34:21.120 --> 0:34:22.400
<v Speaker 1>I just want to say, if y'all don't know nothing

0:34:22.440 --> 0:34:25.399
<v Speaker 1>about the movie, it starts me Regina Hall, who plays

0:34:25.480 --> 0:34:28.560
<v Speaker 1>his probation officer, and the movie's kind of like a

0:34:28.640 --> 0:34:34.880
<v Speaker 1>metaphor and Tammy Roman and now Paula Brunson. But Tammy

0:34:35.000 --> 0:34:39.359
<v Speaker 1>Roman is uncomfortably real in this movie. It's it's uncomfortably real.

0:34:39.560 --> 0:34:42.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm so glad I castor. But the point that I'm

0:34:42.640 --> 0:34:43.759
<v Speaker 1>trying to make is is that you look at this

0:34:43.920 --> 0:34:47.440
<v Speaker 1>character and you learn about what it really means to

0:34:47.520 --> 0:34:49.560
<v Speaker 1>be on probation. You learn what it means for you,

0:34:49.760 --> 0:34:51.920
<v Speaker 1>what it costs for your family to call you when

0:34:51.920 --> 0:34:53.879
<v Speaker 1>you at home. You get to see the real deal.

0:34:54.320 --> 0:34:57.640
<v Speaker 1>But you also understand that the system is really set

0:34:57.760 --> 0:35:02.200
<v Speaker 1>up to disenfranchise you even more once you become a felon.

0:35:02.680 --> 0:35:06.200
<v Speaker 1>And he's got these big dreams for this alternate reality

0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:09.400
<v Speaker 1>that he's created for himself on the inside. But when

0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:11.759
<v Speaker 1>he gets out, the systems like na na nae. So

0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:15.760
<v Speaker 1>his probation officers taking him to fill out these ninety

0:35:15.800 --> 0:35:18.240
<v Speaker 1>nine fill out applications at the ninety nine cents store.

0:35:18.520 --> 0:35:20.200
<v Speaker 1>He trying to figure out how to become a world

0:35:20.239 --> 0:35:23.480
<v Speaker 1>and out life coach. If he doesn't get employed, he

0:35:23.719 --> 0:35:26.320
<v Speaker 1>goes back to jail, like the stipulation of his parole. So,

0:35:26.719 --> 0:35:29.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, as funny as it is, that's what a

0:35:29.800 --> 0:35:31.760
<v Speaker 1>lot of people are dealing with when they are inside,

0:35:32.280 --> 0:35:34.120
<v Speaker 1>when they get outside the germ. You know, there was

0:35:34.160 --> 0:35:35.960
<v Speaker 1>one part where you know where he was saying, Hey,

0:35:36.000 --> 0:35:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I want to be a motivational speaker, and she was

0:35:37.920 --> 0:35:40.480
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, okay, Like all right, you want me to

0:35:40.560 --> 0:35:42.239
<v Speaker 1>type that down. But I was saying, I got a

0:35:42.360 --> 0:35:44.920
<v Speaker 1>couple of family members that when they come home, they

0:35:44.960 --> 0:35:46.680
<v Speaker 1>don't want to go to the ninety nine cent store,

0:35:46.840 --> 0:35:48.640
<v Speaker 1>they don't want to go work at home depot because

0:35:48.640 --> 0:35:50.920
<v Speaker 1>they have bigger dreams. But then they're forced to. And

0:35:51.000 --> 0:35:52.800
<v Speaker 1>then what winds up happening is they don't want to

0:35:52.800 --> 0:35:54.879
<v Speaker 1>go to work, you know, because that's not their dream,

0:35:54.960 --> 0:35:56.920
<v Speaker 1>and they're forced to. And then what happens when they're late,

0:35:57.200 --> 0:35:59.879
<v Speaker 1>Then they have to go back back to the halfway house.

0:36:00.200 --> 0:36:02.440
<v Speaker 1>And that's the same circle that they go over and over.

0:36:02.480 --> 0:36:04.320
<v Speaker 1>They don't allow people who've been sitting there for a

0:36:04.360 --> 0:36:06.200
<v Speaker 1>while and say, hey, this is my dream, Let me

0:36:06.360 --> 0:36:08.640
<v Speaker 1>try my dream. But they forced them to go to

0:36:08.719 --> 0:36:11.319
<v Speaker 1>these jobs that they necessarily don't love, necessarily don't want

0:36:11.320 --> 0:36:13.399
<v Speaker 1>to do, and they wind up going in that same

0:36:13.440 --> 0:36:16.840
<v Speaker 1>circle over and over and over again. And that's the

0:36:16.960 --> 0:36:19.640
<v Speaker 1>whole point of the movie right there, is showing you

0:36:19.840 --> 0:36:22.320
<v Speaker 1>how we do is trying to navigate around the system

0:36:22.640 --> 0:36:25.479
<v Speaker 1>to pursue a dream and do it in a comical way,

0:36:25.760 --> 0:36:27.799
<v Speaker 1>but just trying to educate people to be a bit

0:36:27.920 --> 0:36:31.560
<v Speaker 1>more empathetic because I honestly see it, like, man, when

0:36:31.600 --> 0:36:34.400
<v Speaker 1>I watched that videotape of Rashard Brooks when he was

0:36:34.480 --> 0:36:37.200
<v Speaker 1>just talking about you know, I've made some mistakes. I'm

0:36:37.239 --> 0:36:39.359
<v Speaker 1>trying to get back up on my feet. Don't look

0:36:39.360 --> 0:36:42.000
<v Speaker 1>at me like an animal. I got dreams too. I

0:36:42.120 --> 0:36:45.359
<v Speaker 1>felt like I was seeing Tijuana Jackson in that dude

0:36:45.440 --> 0:36:48.000
<v Speaker 1>that it gave me chills. It made me so uncomfortable.

0:36:48.400 --> 0:36:51.200
<v Speaker 1>But that's the reality. And I feel like by watching

0:36:51.239 --> 0:36:52.959
<v Speaker 1>the movie, people are going to have like a better

0:36:53.080 --> 0:36:56.080
<v Speaker 1>understanding and hopefully more empathy. Because you know, the reason

0:36:56.120 --> 0:36:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I even the reason to do like me even knows

0:36:58.480 --> 0:37:01.200
<v Speaker 1>about this is because growing up in my fame, my friends,

0:37:01.640 --> 0:37:04.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, my homies, like their brother or somebody would

0:37:04.960 --> 0:37:07.520
<v Speaker 1>get out of prison right and then you don't realize it.

0:37:07.640 --> 0:37:11.240
<v Speaker 1>But it's not just the system that opacizes them, the family,

0:37:11.320 --> 0:37:14.640
<v Speaker 1>the community. I kind of opacizes them too. People don't want,

0:37:14.680 --> 0:37:16.359
<v Speaker 1>you know, your kids hanging out with him and all

0:37:16.400 --> 0:37:18.440
<v Speaker 1>sort of stuff. So I'd always be the dude who

0:37:18.600 --> 0:37:21.040
<v Speaker 1>was just too soft to turn my back on her brother,

0:37:21.120 --> 0:37:23.279
<v Speaker 1>and I end up hanging out with them, going on

0:37:23.400 --> 0:37:26.600
<v Speaker 1>double days. I ain't hando business being on dropping them

0:37:26.640 --> 0:37:29.000
<v Speaker 1>off the places I ain't hando business. Then you know

0:37:29.120 --> 0:37:31.239
<v Speaker 1>that kind of and I kind of really started learning

0:37:31.280 --> 0:37:34.920
<v Speaker 1>and understanding and developing this empathy that I probably might

0:37:34.960 --> 0:37:36.880
<v Speaker 1>not have had otherwise. All Right, we got more with

0:37:37.040 --> 0:37:39.239
<v Speaker 1>Romedy Malco when we come back, don't Move. It's the

0:37:39.280 --> 0:37:47.440
<v Speaker 1>Breakfast Club. Good morning morning, everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne.

0:37:47.480 --> 0:37:49.600
<v Speaker 1>The guy we are the Breakfast Club was still kicking

0:37:49.640 --> 0:37:52.160
<v Speaker 1>in with Romedy Malco. Charlemagne. I don't want to give

0:37:52.239 --> 0:37:55.200
<v Speaker 1>the movie away, but I do like the realization TJ

0:37:56.080 --> 0:37:58.920
<v Speaker 1>came through towards the end, you know, because he kind

0:37:58.960 --> 0:38:02.480
<v Speaker 1>of realized that his motivation only applies to him. But

0:38:02.600 --> 0:38:04.520
<v Speaker 1>he realized in order for it to be effective, it

0:38:04.520 --> 0:38:06.520
<v Speaker 1>would have to you'd have to be selfless. And there

0:38:06.640 --> 0:38:09.680
<v Speaker 1>was one line man that put it all in perspective

0:38:10.160 --> 0:38:12.719
<v Speaker 1>when TJ said, when you have to beg a man

0:38:12.840 --> 0:38:15.400
<v Speaker 1>twice your size to wear a condom, it doesn't do

0:38:15.480 --> 0:38:18.479
<v Speaker 1>anything for your self I had to rewind that because

0:38:18.480 --> 0:38:24.360
<v Speaker 1>I like what they just said. But in perspective, it

0:38:24.480 --> 0:38:26.880
<v Speaker 1>makes so much sense. When you got to beg a

0:38:26.960 --> 0:38:29.800
<v Speaker 1>man twice your size to wear a condom, it doesn't

0:38:29.840 --> 0:38:32.680
<v Speaker 1>do anything for your selfless. It sounds like you speak

0:38:32.719 --> 0:38:36.319
<v Speaker 1>of a personal experience. Charlomagne There's a lot of little

0:38:36.360 --> 0:38:39.919
<v Speaker 1>funny gems in this movie, as you can see. But listen,

0:38:40.000 --> 0:38:41.360
<v Speaker 1>I do want to commend you because I know this

0:38:41.480 --> 0:38:43.440
<v Speaker 1>has been something that you've been working on for so long.

0:38:43.520 --> 0:38:46.360
<v Speaker 1>How long did it take you to actually start writing

0:38:46.400 --> 0:38:48.560
<v Speaker 1>this movie and then get to this finished product? Because

0:38:48.560 --> 0:38:51.400
<v Speaker 1>it is available July thirty first, on demand right and

0:38:51.520 --> 0:38:56.200

0:38:56.320 --> 0:39:00.440
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be on Voodoo fand ain't gonna now pretty

0:39:00.560 --> 0:39:03.040
<v Speaker 1>VOD pretty much any video on demand you can get it.

0:39:03.560 --> 0:39:06.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, I would say that when I really got

0:39:06.600 --> 0:39:09.080
<v Speaker 1>serious and said this is gonna happen, it probably took

0:39:09.120 --> 0:39:13.600
<v Speaker 1>me about five six years total. And I'm not gonna lie.

0:39:13.760 --> 0:39:16.760
<v Speaker 1>There was a moment where I kind of started feeling

0:39:16.840 --> 0:39:20.240
<v Speaker 1>like I was being seduced by Hollywood and the possibilities

0:39:20.400 --> 0:39:24.080
<v Speaker 1>of some prominent black producers in Hollywood who I will

0:39:24.160 --> 0:39:28.840
<v Speaker 1>not name, were expressing mad interests, calling every day or

0:39:28.920 --> 0:39:32.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, reading the script over and over, and I thought, damn,

0:39:32.600 --> 0:39:35.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, these brothers might get it, you know what

0:39:35.480 --> 0:39:39.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. But in the end, I was living in

0:39:39.120 --> 0:39:41.880
<v Speaker 1>Puerto Rico and I just kind of had this realization that.

0:39:41.960 --> 0:39:45.640
<v Speaker 1>It was like, I'm I'm kind of Hollywood side check

0:39:45.800 --> 0:39:49.440
<v Speaker 1>right now, because I was hearing all these promises, you know, like, oh,

0:39:49.480 --> 0:39:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm gonna leave it, I'm gonna leaven, We're gonna

0:39:51.560 --> 0:39:54.040
<v Speaker 1>get a house. And I never really got that commitment

0:39:54.120 --> 0:39:56.279
<v Speaker 1>from Hollywood, and I realized I was wasting a lot

0:39:56.320 --> 0:39:57.960
<v Speaker 1>of time by doing that. And when I really gave

0:39:58.000 --> 0:40:01.040
<v Speaker 1>it thought, I had to it down and figure out

0:40:01.280 --> 0:40:04.280
<v Speaker 1>how I was going to make the best product possible.

0:40:04.320 --> 0:40:05.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's when I decided to start a crowd

0:40:05.960 --> 0:40:08.640
<v Speaker 1>funding campaign. My manager called me when I started that

0:40:08.680 --> 0:40:12.000
<v Speaker 1>crowd funding campaign and he said, a, fam, I don't

0:40:12.040 --> 0:40:13.759
<v Speaker 1>think you should do this. I said, why not? He goes,

0:40:13.800 --> 0:40:15.960
<v Speaker 1>You know we can get the money you've got interest.

0:40:16.400 --> 0:40:18.040
<v Speaker 1>He goes, and it's not a good look for you

0:40:18.120 --> 0:40:21.440
<v Speaker 1>to be an established actor to be asking fans for money.

0:40:21.920 --> 0:40:24.000
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, whoa what wait wait? What what

0:40:24.880 --> 0:40:31.600
<v Speaker 1>do you think I'm an established out these I was like,

0:40:31.800 --> 0:40:34.880
<v Speaker 1>I'd assume that by now we to raise something. No,

0:40:35.640 --> 0:40:38.160
<v Speaker 1>and he was like hm. So we ended up having

0:40:38.200 --> 0:40:39.360
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more of a talk, and what I

0:40:39.480 --> 0:40:41.080
<v Speaker 1>ended up doing was I ended up putting in some

0:40:41.160 --> 0:40:44.360
<v Speaker 1>of my own money starting the crowd funding campaign and

0:40:45.800 --> 0:40:48.120
<v Speaker 1>what we the analogy we came up with it sometimes

0:40:48.160 --> 0:40:50.520
<v Speaker 1>you got to start your own party, put the music on,

0:40:51.239 --> 0:40:54.360
<v Speaker 1>or yourself a drink, get on the damned floor by yourself,

0:40:54.800 --> 0:40:57.720
<v Speaker 1>and then send out the invitations. And that's that's basically

0:40:57.800 --> 0:40:59.919
<v Speaker 1>what I did. So how did Will Packer and James

0:41:00.040 --> 0:41:02.040
<v Speaker 1>lo Fest become the EPs there? Because when I saw that,

0:41:02.080 --> 0:41:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I was like, well, I thought Romany did this himself.

0:41:03.640 --> 0:41:05.040
<v Speaker 1>But then I saw them at the EPs, it gave

0:41:05.080 --> 0:41:08.520
<v Speaker 1>it to Hollywood. Phil oh Man, I lied, I lied.

0:41:08.600 --> 0:41:11.239
<v Speaker 1>I thought y'allways didn't know that I'm playing. No. The

0:41:11.400 --> 0:41:18.439
<v Speaker 1>real reason, No, after I made the movie. I made,

0:41:18.480 --> 0:41:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I shot, wrote, directed the movie. Everything promoted money, finance

0:41:22.800 --> 0:41:25.400
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing. After I made the movie, I never

0:41:25.520 --> 0:41:27.920
<v Speaker 1>really was concerned about being in Sundance. I was never

0:41:28.000 --> 0:41:31.200
<v Speaker 1>really concerned about being like Tribeca or all these procedgious

0:41:31.200 --> 0:41:33.520
<v Speaker 1>film festivals. I really wanted to take the movie to

0:41:33.600 --> 0:41:36.520
<v Speaker 1>the places where people had contributed money. So that ended

0:41:36.560 --> 0:41:41.160
<v Speaker 1>up being like Florida, Nashville, you know, Brooklyn, you know.

0:41:41.600 --> 0:41:46.080
<v Speaker 1>And one of those places was Atlanta, And so Atlanta

0:41:46.200 --> 0:41:48.879
<v Speaker 1>Film Festival was like, yo, we'll feature your film there.

0:41:49.160 --> 0:41:51.080
<v Speaker 1>We won't you know, we won't have you compete, but

0:41:51.120 --> 0:41:52.799
<v Speaker 1>we would love to feature your film. And they had

0:41:52.880 --> 0:41:55.800
<v Speaker 1>this uh they just remodelists. Theater had three hundred and

0:41:55.880 --> 0:41:58.360
<v Speaker 1>ninety seats who packed it out, and the president of

0:41:58.440 --> 0:42:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Wild pack the production showed up. Lopez saw it and

0:42:02.200 --> 0:42:05.279
<v Speaker 1>after what he was like, you got that performance out

0:42:05.320 --> 0:42:07.319
<v Speaker 1>of Tammy. I was like, well, Tammy kind of came

0:42:07.360 --> 0:42:09.719
<v Speaker 1>with you got that performance out out of Reginia. I

0:42:09.800 --> 0:42:11.680
<v Speaker 1>was like, well, Reginia showder what what a minute? You

0:42:11.719 --> 0:42:14.000
<v Speaker 1>wrote this whole thing? Yeah, you produced it. Yeah, And

0:42:14.480 --> 0:42:17.040
<v Speaker 1>he was like all right, cool, so maybe like it

0:42:17.120 --> 0:42:19.360
<v Speaker 1>couldn't have been Like but a week later, I'm driving

0:42:19.400 --> 0:42:22.560
<v Speaker 1>across Daytona, Florida to Daytona, Florida to see my nephew

0:42:22.600 --> 0:42:24.719
<v Speaker 1>graduate from White School. I get a phone call from

0:42:24.760 --> 0:42:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Will Packet like eleven o'clock at nine Timmy, Um, he

0:42:28.719 --> 0:42:31.560
<v Speaker 1>just watched it because the president to show the to him,

0:42:31.880 --> 0:42:34.520
<v Speaker 1>and he was like, look, dude, I can't believe it.

0:42:35.200 --> 0:42:38.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm really proud of you and I want to help

0:42:38.160 --> 0:42:40.960
<v Speaker 1>you sell this film. And he came on board and

0:42:41.160 --> 0:42:44.080
<v Speaker 1>that was like one of the biggest blessings just because

0:42:44.080 --> 0:42:46.640
<v Speaker 1>of the game that I've sucked up the conversations you

0:42:46.840 --> 0:42:50.000
<v Speaker 1>hear when you're operating as an executive producer versus act

0:42:50.080 --> 0:42:52.279
<v Speaker 1>operating as an actor for hire. How much did it

0:42:52.360 --> 0:42:55.280
<v Speaker 1>calls to make that full film? I probably spent about

0:42:55.360 --> 0:42:58.799
<v Speaker 1>four hundred thousand dollars. Wow, but that's amazing. You don't

0:42:58.800 --> 0:43:02.960
<v Speaker 1>have to pay yourself, so at house, I paid myself.

0:43:03.200 --> 0:43:05.759
<v Speaker 1>I paid myself with equity. You know. One of the

0:43:05.840 --> 0:43:08.680
<v Speaker 1>biggest lessons of the Hostel I always I've been peeping

0:43:08.760 --> 0:43:10.440
<v Speaker 1>the game, you know. I poxed that, peeped the weakness

0:43:10.480 --> 0:43:12.399
<v Speaker 1>in the rap game and sewed it. Well. I feel

0:43:12.440 --> 0:43:16.080
<v Speaker 1>like I peeped the weakness in like as particularly you know,

0:43:16.239 --> 0:43:18.160
<v Speaker 1>the film industry. But I ain't sewed it yet, right

0:43:18.160 --> 0:43:20.440
<v Speaker 1>because this is my first one. But what I have

0:43:20.680 --> 0:43:24.920
<v Speaker 1>peace is that if you really listen to like, you know,

0:43:25.200 --> 0:43:27.680
<v Speaker 1>the issues that a lot of people have with Hollywood.

0:43:27.800 --> 0:43:30.520
<v Speaker 1>One is they have an issue with the creative accounting,

0:43:30.840 --> 0:43:33.799
<v Speaker 1>so meaning they're always being told, well, you know, they

0:43:33.840 --> 0:43:36.719
<v Speaker 1>ain't no more money. You know. I read this book

0:43:36.800 --> 0:43:40.320
<v Speaker 1>called down in Dirty Hollywood or something like that, and

0:43:40.360 --> 0:43:42.360
<v Speaker 1>they were talking about the wine steins and and and

0:43:42.640 --> 0:43:46.279
<v Speaker 1>I'll ben affleck and and and and got done for

0:43:46.320 --> 0:43:47.800
<v Speaker 1>a good real hunting and stuff like that. And I

0:43:48.080 --> 0:43:49.840
<v Speaker 1>really took note of that. So I was like, okay,

0:43:49.920 --> 0:43:52.640
<v Speaker 1>so awesome that you know the Key and Peel brothers.

0:43:52.680 --> 0:43:55.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm met with them before he made hit his hit,

0:43:56.200 --> 0:43:58.040
<v Speaker 1>and I was like talking to them, and they're like,

0:43:58.080 --> 0:43:59.480
<v Speaker 1>if we can figure out a way to get rid

0:43:59.520 --> 0:44:01.800
<v Speaker 1>of this at retirement cost is p and a to

0:44:01.920 --> 0:44:05.359
<v Speaker 1>be sometimes ten, fifteen, twenty thirty, forty fifty million dollars,

0:44:05.719 --> 0:44:08.520
<v Speaker 1>we could create a direct you know, to consumer connection.

0:44:08.560 --> 0:44:11.320
<v Speaker 1>And that's what allays I started inspirement to do, keeping

0:44:11.360 --> 0:44:13.759
<v Speaker 1>it at a low price point and getting just enough

0:44:13.840 --> 0:44:17.360
<v Speaker 1>star power that you can actually fell incentivize the distributor

0:44:17.360 --> 0:44:20.719
<v Speaker 1>to pick up the film with keithany and um and

0:44:20.840 --> 0:44:23.120
<v Speaker 1>then the other thing was I was like, well, you know,

0:44:23.239 --> 0:44:25.360
<v Speaker 1>we got this digital distribution. Let me tell y'all. Let

0:44:25.440 --> 0:44:27.960
<v Speaker 1>me tell y'all something. Okay. There was no way in

0:44:28.000 --> 0:44:31.480
<v Speaker 1>the world that I could predict coronavirus COVID nineteen. There

0:44:31.560 --> 0:44:33.800
<v Speaker 1>was no way. But when we would do when we

0:44:33.880 --> 0:44:36.920
<v Speaker 1>were dealing with distributors, the way that the deal normally

0:44:37.000 --> 0:44:39.000
<v Speaker 1>goes as you give up the lion's share of the

0:44:39.120 --> 0:44:42.719
<v Speaker 1>film to distributors and then they put your film in

0:44:43.120 --> 0:44:46.759
<v Speaker 1>a frigging and then a bunch of theaters, right, and

0:44:46.920 --> 0:44:49.359
<v Speaker 1>then you get a cut once they had recruited all

0:44:49.400 --> 0:44:52.440
<v Speaker 1>their money, not knowing nothing that was gonna happen in

0:44:52.480 --> 0:44:54.279
<v Speaker 1>the future. I was like, no, no, now, we ain't

0:44:54.320 --> 0:44:57.719
<v Speaker 1>doing that. We ain't doing that. So the distributor said, Okay,

0:44:57.719 --> 0:45:00.480
<v Speaker 1>I tell you what, what if we facilitated deal? What

0:45:00.600 --> 0:45:04.800
<v Speaker 1>if we just facilitated meaning we'll help you position your movie.

0:45:05.080 --> 0:45:07.960
<v Speaker 1>We'll take a very very small percent, but we won't

0:45:07.960 --> 0:45:09.960
<v Speaker 1>be putting up a whole bunch of money for marketing

0:45:10.000 --> 0:45:12.440
<v Speaker 1>and all this stuff, right, because honestly, they never do.

0:45:13.200 --> 0:45:16.440
<v Speaker 1>And dude, shortly after we said okay and we got

0:45:16.480 --> 0:45:20.080
<v Speaker 1>our contract COVID nineteen hits. So just imagine I would

0:45:20.120 --> 0:45:22.880
<v Speaker 1>have gave up the lion's share of my movie to

0:45:23.080 --> 0:45:29.520
<v Speaker 1>be put in theaters when it's impossible. Now, yeah, we'd

0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:33.959
<v Speaker 1>have been limited to a digital release anyway and little

0:45:34.000 --> 0:45:36.759
<v Speaker 1>to no marketing. So I really feel like this is

0:45:36.800 --> 0:45:39.320
<v Speaker 1>a This was like kind of seven difference, And I

0:45:39.400 --> 0:45:41.080
<v Speaker 1>think that I've been asking for this for a long

0:45:41.160 --> 0:45:44.640
<v Speaker 1>time and it just kind of happened where I ended

0:45:44.680 --> 0:45:47.440
<v Speaker 1>up being able to maintain ownership and also kind of

0:45:47.560 --> 0:45:50.440
<v Speaker 1>market on major platforms. So I feel I feel very

0:45:50.520 --> 0:45:52.680
<v Speaker 1>lucky right now. Keep it luck. We got over Romedy

0:45:52.719 --> 0:45:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Malcolm when we come back, is the Breakfast Club going morning?

0:45:57.760 --> 0:46:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Everybody is DJ Envy angela Ye, Charlemagne, the guy we

0:46:02.040 --> 0:46:04.280
<v Speaker 1>are the Breakfast Club was still kicking in with Rominy

0:46:04.320 --> 0:46:06.560
<v Speaker 1>Malco Charlemagne. I feel like the movie was like a

0:46:06.640 --> 0:46:09.320
<v Speaker 1>pilot to me. It set it up like a pilot.

0:46:09.360 --> 0:46:10.759
<v Speaker 1>I think I think it should go. I think it

0:46:10.800 --> 0:46:13.560
<v Speaker 1>would be a better series. But but you mentioned your

0:46:13.640 --> 0:46:16.520
<v Speaker 1>nephew in real life. Was he inspiration for your nephew

0:46:16.520 --> 0:46:20.359
<v Speaker 1>in the film? No? Eric um No, not a little

0:46:20.440 --> 0:46:23.200
<v Speaker 1>eric No, No, No, he was, you know, honestly, man,

0:46:23.320 --> 0:46:25.520
<v Speaker 1>he was kind of like me when I was a

0:46:25.600 --> 0:46:28.239
<v Speaker 1>kid rolling around with my dad. My dad's one of

0:46:28.239 --> 0:46:30.640
<v Speaker 1>the most truth dudes I have them metch you know,

0:46:30.840 --> 0:46:34.400
<v Speaker 1>he my dad came. My dad came to Brooklyn and

0:46:34.800 --> 0:46:39.440
<v Speaker 1>bought Trinidad with him film and so he would hustle

0:46:39.520 --> 0:46:43.840
<v Speaker 1>and dry taxis with no certification. He was my My

0:46:43.960 --> 0:46:45.719
<v Speaker 1>dad was a hustling and I kind of always felt

0:46:45.760 --> 0:46:48.440
<v Speaker 1>like I was riding shotgun with t J. So you know,

0:46:48.680 --> 0:46:52.160
<v Speaker 1>little Eric was really bet But I'm so excited that

0:46:52.239 --> 0:46:54.120
<v Speaker 1>you said you felt like it was a pilot, because

0:46:54.200 --> 0:46:56.719
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of the point. That's the goal. The goal

0:46:56.920 --> 0:46:59.800
<v Speaker 1>now is to actually be able to go forward and

0:47:00.080 --> 0:47:04.600
<v Speaker 1>make the Tijuana Jackson TV show. And every single person went.

0:47:04.680 --> 0:47:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Regina Hall showed up. I never forget. She just looked

0:47:07.040 --> 0:47:08.600
<v Speaker 1>at me and she's like, she looked around. She did

0:47:08.680 --> 0:47:10.400
<v Speaker 1>a couple of scenes and she was like, this is

0:47:10.400 --> 0:47:13.160
<v Speaker 1>going the series wrong, this is going to serious. Chammie

0:47:13.239 --> 0:47:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Roman was the first person to say, she goes when

0:47:15.080 --> 0:47:16.640
<v Speaker 1>you're ready to learn how to make money on this,

0:47:17.160 --> 0:47:20.840
<v Speaker 1>let me know. Now, I'm like, oh, okay, because you know,

0:47:20.920 --> 0:47:26.000
<v Speaker 1>she's a businesswoman, hands down and her acting is uncomfortably

0:47:26.120 --> 0:47:28.040
<v Speaker 1>real through this. I swear to everything. And so that's

0:47:28.080 --> 0:47:30.439
<v Speaker 1>the goal, Charlemagne. So I thank you for that, because

0:47:30.480 --> 0:47:32.919
<v Speaker 1>that is the goal. I was gonna ask Regina Hall,

0:47:33.200 --> 0:47:35.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, what was the process of getting her involved

0:47:35.200 --> 0:47:38.520
<v Speaker 1>in this film? Man? You know, I don't know a lot.

0:47:38.520 --> 0:47:41.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't man, I don't want to incrimic. I'm gonna

0:47:41.640 --> 0:47:50.800
<v Speaker 1>just she leaves her. She leaves that she had the preyer.

0:47:50.880 --> 0:47:52.600
<v Speaker 1>She leaves the door open. I crawled into the back

0:47:52.640 --> 0:47:54.880
<v Speaker 1>of that. When she was so having the work, I

0:47:54.920 --> 0:47:57.879
<v Speaker 1>popped up on her life. I really had been telling

0:47:57.920 --> 0:48:00.040
<v Speaker 1>her about it two years and she kept saying, I

0:48:00.160 --> 0:48:02.359
<v Speaker 1>want to play a hard bitch. I want to play

0:48:03.120 --> 0:48:08.279
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, real, so, um, what I did

0:48:08.480 --> 0:48:11.320
<v Speaker 1>was I just basically wrote it in a way that

0:48:11.440 --> 0:48:13.680
<v Speaker 1>I felt like it would be appealing to her. And

0:48:13.800 --> 0:48:17.319
<v Speaker 1>then rather than just say take this job, I went

0:48:17.400 --> 0:48:19.480
<v Speaker 1>to her and said, I want your notes. He need

0:48:19.520 --> 0:48:23.000
<v Speaker 1>your notes on this job. And she read it and

0:48:23.120 --> 0:48:25.480
<v Speaker 1>called me and was like, what's fine with you? Baby?

0:48:25.880 --> 0:48:27.719
<v Speaker 1>What's fine with this? Come out of your head? But

0:48:27.920 --> 0:48:30.319
<v Speaker 1>you you're out this. I'm like, yes, you ain't right, baby.

0:48:30.800 --> 0:48:32.360
<v Speaker 1>He needs to talk to somebody. And I was like,

0:48:32.680 --> 0:48:35.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, she'd go, Joe, I definitely want to do this.

0:48:35.680 --> 0:48:39.440
<v Speaker 1>And I also think that this character should have more slang. Well,

0:48:39.520 --> 0:48:41.600
<v Speaker 1>since since there's been a Tiawana Jackson, there's a real

0:48:41.719 --> 0:48:45.520
<v Speaker 1>life version of TJ out here in these streets right now.

0:48:45.520 --> 0:48:47.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you know Willow from Philadelphia. He

0:48:47.920 --> 0:48:50.360
<v Speaker 1>did twenty years and he's home now. He's like a

0:48:50.440 --> 0:48:55.080
<v Speaker 1>life coach, motivational speaker. Are you familiar with Willow? I

0:48:55.200 --> 0:48:57.520
<v Speaker 1>am not. I'm familiar with a few brothers who've gotten

0:48:57.560 --> 0:49:00.319
<v Speaker 1>off the joint and become motivation speakers, but I'm I'm

0:49:00.360 --> 0:49:03.320
<v Speaker 1>not familiar with Wallows. Okay, but did you speak to

0:49:03.440 --> 0:49:07.000
<v Speaker 1>somebody who actually went through that, like, you know, before

0:49:07.000 --> 0:49:09.560
<v Speaker 1>you shot the movie or anything. No, I spoke to

0:49:09.680 --> 0:49:11.120
<v Speaker 1>a lot of brothers who was in the jointing. You

0:49:11.200 --> 0:49:13.560
<v Speaker 1>just reminded me, I gotta call my boy, and I

0:49:13.640 --> 0:49:15.440
<v Speaker 1>gotta call my boy. They got feel so bad. My

0:49:15.520 --> 0:49:17.960
<v Speaker 1>boy called me like days are going and call him back. Um.

0:49:18.400 --> 0:49:19.799
<v Speaker 1>You know, I don't know if you've seen them behind

0:49:19.840 --> 0:49:21.520
<v Speaker 1>the scenes video, but we had a lot of brothers

0:49:21.520 --> 0:49:24.600
<v Speaker 1>who would serve times on set, you know, helping me

0:49:24.719 --> 0:49:27.640
<v Speaker 1>understand the process of the halfway, help you understand what it's,

0:49:27.680 --> 0:49:31.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, doing nineteen years, what that means. And but

0:49:31.840 --> 0:49:34.640
<v Speaker 1>none of them had ever really become motivational speakers or

0:49:34.840 --> 0:49:40.399
<v Speaker 1>anything or that process. No, but you gotta you gotta

0:49:40.440 --> 0:49:43.719
<v Speaker 1>talk to Willow. Let me tell you why I didn't

0:49:43.760 --> 0:49:47.680
<v Speaker 1>do that. I didn't want nobody saying I've stole these stories, right,

0:49:48.880 --> 0:49:50.759
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying, And it's it's you've been

0:49:50.840 --> 0:49:52.320
<v Speaker 1>doing this for a lot, but you've been doing this

0:49:52.480 --> 0:49:54.160
<v Speaker 1>character for such a long time. I don't know how

0:49:54.200 --> 0:49:56.640
<v Speaker 1>anyone could say that now. I'm sure people still said that.

0:49:56.680 --> 0:49:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure people still said you stole the story. I'm

0:49:58.440 --> 0:50:01.120
<v Speaker 1>sure that that that's popped up. I had a couple

0:50:01.160 --> 0:50:02.759
<v Speaker 1>of people say that, Oh man, my boy said, you

0:50:02.840 --> 0:50:04.840
<v Speaker 1>sold the story. I was like, thank god, the social

0:50:04.920 --> 0:50:07.200
<v Speaker 1>proof exists. I've been doing this character since ninety nine.

0:50:07.239 --> 0:50:09.759
<v Speaker 1>I've been recording this character since ninety nine, and then

0:50:09.760 --> 0:50:11.840
<v Speaker 1>I've been online with this characters. In two thousand and seven,

0:50:11.880 --> 0:50:13.520
<v Speaker 1>you go back to my space and fine tim on

0:50:13.680 --> 0:50:16.279
<v Speaker 1>the jackon No. And I forgot to tell Wallow that

0:50:16.320 --> 0:50:18.360
<v Speaker 1>because Willow did say that to me. Willow sent me

0:50:18.440 --> 0:50:21.799
<v Speaker 1>to for this movie and Willow saying, there's my story, Yo,

0:50:22.000 --> 0:50:24.120
<v Speaker 1>you do it, Stow my story, and I was I

0:50:24.360 --> 0:50:25.920
<v Speaker 1>was like, damn, I said, but nobody could do it

0:50:25.960 --> 0:50:27.960
<v Speaker 1>like you, Wallow because you actually went through it. But

0:50:28.080 --> 0:50:30.319
<v Speaker 1>then it did hit me, like, Yo, you haven't been

0:50:30.360 --> 0:50:34.680
<v Speaker 1>doing this character for a longer? Yeah, yeah, you know,

0:50:34.840 --> 0:50:36.799
<v Speaker 1>yeah I have. And look, man, you know, I swear

0:50:36.880 --> 0:50:39.439
<v Speaker 1>to god, I didn't really make this character to make money.

0:50:39.560 --> 0:50:42.120
<v Speaker 1>I was doing this because I really was like I

0:50:42.239 --> 0:50:45.440
<v Speaker 1>want to reach these people like the same way. Nobody

0:50:45.520 --> 0:50:48.399
<v Speaker 1>reached my ass. Nobody came to me and said, hey, Sam,

0:50:49.239 --> 0:50:51.040
<v Speaker 1>I know it seems crazy, but when you think of

0:50:51.160 --> 0:50:53.359
<v Speaker 1>buying a house, you don't gotta come up with all

0:50:53.360 --> 0:50:56.320
<v Speaker 1>the money for the house right away. Or Yo, dude,

0:50:56.719 --> 0:50:58.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, I understand that people have done you wrong,

0:50:58.760 --> 0:51:00.759
<v Speaker 1>but if you carry that around out to aid you

0:51:00.920 --> 0:51:02.960
<v Speaker 1>from the inside out, you got to figure out a

0:51:03.040 --> 0:51:06.040
<v Speaker 1>way they least understand the people that the people that

0:51:06.160 --> 0:51:09.120
<v Speaker 1>hurt you were most most likely hurt as well and

0:51:09.239 --> 0:51:12.200
<v Speaker 1>probably still paying. And like, no one told me that.

0:51:12.560 --> 0:51:14.120
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, how am I going to communicate

0:51:14.200 --> 0:51:16.120
<v Speaker 1>that to these kids? Man? When you know you know

0:51:16.200 --> 0:51:17.719
<v Speaker 1>how it is. How am I going to communicate that

0:51:17.800 --> 0:51:20.440
<v Speaker 1>to these kids? When America is set up? And I'm

0:51:20.480 --> 0:51:22.320
<v Speaker 1>so blessed because I went to schools in Trinidad and

0:51:22.360 --> 0:51:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Tobago and I'm going to school in now and States

0:51:24.000 --> 0:51:25.640
<v Speaker 1>of America. And I'm gonna tell you something that really

0:51:25.680 --> 0:51:28.839
<v Speaker 1>stood out is that in the Caribbean, even if you're poor,

0:51:29.000 --> 0:51:31.440
<v Speaker 1>you still get a quality of education. In the United

0:51:31.480 --> 0:51:35.600
<v Speaker 1>States of America, Yo, your your class and your income

0:51:35.680 --> 0:51:38.520
<v Speaker 1>dictates the quality of education. And true to see and

0:51:38.800 --> 0:51:42.080
<v Speaker 1>like that stood out, and so knowing that these communities,

0:51:42.239 --> 0:51:45.200
<v Speaker 1>it's like they're purposely keeping the game from you, knowing

0:51:45.280 --> 0:51:47.480
<v Speaker 1>that they're purposely trying to keep you ignorant, knowing that

0:51:47.560 --> 0:51:50.040
<v Speaker 1>they purposely don't want you to know the etiquette of

0:51:50.320 --> 0:51:53.160
<v Speaker 1>of pursuing investors, knowing that they don't want you to

0:51:53.280 --> 0:51:56.040
<v Speaker 1>know the etiquette of just simply managing the work. You know,

0:51:56.239 --> 0:52:00.640
<v Speaker 1>a work environment, you remain, you remain basically when the

0:52:00.760 --> 0:52:04.719
<v Speaker 1>menial jobs, you remain uneducated and kind of you know, ostracized.

0:52:04.760 --> 0:52:06.719
<v Speaker 1>And so the game was from the beginning with this

0:52:06.840 --> 0:52:09.240
<v Speaker 1>characters just kind of to help turn people on and stuff.

0:52:09.239 --> 0:52:11.840
<v Speaker 1>And here's here's the ivany At. So I'm doing this

0:52:11.960 --> 0:52:13.719
<v Speaker 1>to help these kids, and I call them kids, but

0:52:13.760 --> 0:52:16.120
<v Speaker 1>they was like, you know, young adults help trying to

0:52:16.160 --> 0:52:18.279
<v Speaker 1>help them have a bigger vision for theirself. They turned

0:52:18.320 --> 0:52:20.680
<v Speaker 1>around and told me I needed to make a movie

0:52:20.719 --> 0:52:22.960
<v Speaker 1>with this character. It had never crossed my mind. Not

0:52:23.040 --> 0:52:24.319
<v Speaker 1>only did tell me I actould make a movie through

0:52:24.320 --> 0:52:26.200
<v Speaker 1>the character, they told me to start a crop funding

0:52:26.239 --> 0:52:29.120
<v Speaker 1>campaign that they would finance it, and I did and

0:52:29.320 --> 0:52:31.560
<v Speaker 1>they did. So it turned out I'm sitting there trying

0:52:31.560 --> 0:52:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to tell them how to how to grow life coaching

0:52:34.560 --> 0:52:36.760
<v Speaker 1>them and they turn around and life coach me basicly

0:52:37.040 --> 0:52:38.960
<v Speaker 1>and give me a big vision for myself, which is

0:52:39.000 --> 0:52:40.640
<v Speaker 1>one of the reasons I say that line in the movie.

0:52:40.719 --> 0:52:42.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, you got to ask yourself why I needed

0:52:42.719 --> 0:52:44.440
<v Speaker 1>to drink to see a big future for you that

0:52:44.480 --> 0:52:46.440
<v Speaker 1>you can see for yourself. That's kind of where that

0:52:46.520 --> 0:52:50.600

0:53:39.880 --> 0:53:49.279
<v Speaker 1>Oh go guys, it's all right. Megan Nastallion, after having

0:53:49.360 --> 0:53:52.520
<v Speaker 1>not said anything for the past two weeks since being

0:53:52.640 --> 0:53:55.720
<v Speaker 1>shot in her foot and we don't know exactly what happened,

0:53:56.120 --> 0:53:58.919
<v Speaker 1>she took to her Instagram live and she talked about

0:53:58.960 --> 0:54:02.120
<v Speaker 1>getting shot two times than needing surgery. I was shot

0:54:02.760 --> 0:54:05.520
<v Speaker 1>and both of my feet and I had to get

0:54:05.600 --> 0:54:09.399
<v Speaker 1>surgery to get taken out, get the bullets taken out.

0:54:09.800 --> 0:54:13.239
<v Speaker 1>And it was super scary and it's not funny. It's

0:54:13.280 --> 0:54:16.160
<v Speaker 1>nothing to joke about. It was nothing for y'all to

0:54:16.320 --> 0:54:20.440
<v Speaker 1>start going and making up take stories about I didn't

0:54:20.440 --> 0:54:23.160
<v Speaker 1>put my hands on nobody. I didn't deserve to get

0:54:23.200 --> 0:54:27.800
<v Speaker 1>shot and do and thank god that the bullets didn't

0:54:27.840 --> 0:54:31.879
<v Speaker 1>touch bones, they didn't break tendings. I know my mom

0:54:31.920 --> 0:54:34.040
<v Speaker 1>and my daddy, it's my green hand to be looking

0:54:34.040 --> 0:54:35.799
<v Speaker 1>out for me with that one. It's a damn shame

0:54:35.880 --> 0:54:39.000
<v Speaker 1>she has to explain why she didn't deserve to get shot. Yeah, yeah,

0:54:39.320 --> 0:54:41.520
<v Speaker 1>and you know, it is difficult that all these people

0:54:41.560 --> 0:54:44.960
<v Speaker 1>were making jokes and having nasty things to say, thinking

0:54:45.000 --> 0:54:46.960
<v Speaker 1>it was funny I saw that fifty cent posted. Damn.

0:54:47.000 --> 0:54:50.000
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think this ish was real. It sounded so crazy.

0:54:50.320 --> 0:54:52.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad you're feeling better, and I hope you can

0:54:52.080 --> 0:54:54.880
<v Speaker 1>accept my apology. I posted a mean that was floating around.

0:54:55.200 --> 0:54:56.800
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't have done that if I knew you was

0:54:56.840 --> 0:54:59.680
<v Speaker 1>really hurt. Sorry, Yeah, I mean it's a damn sham.

0:54:59.800 --> 0:55:01.839
<v Speaker 1>She had explain why she didn't deserve to get shot.

0:55:01.880 --> 0:55:03.560
<v Speaker 1>It's a damn shame she feels like she has to

0:55:03.640 --> 0:55:07.920
<v Speaker 1>explain anything, a message to everyone out there listening, celebrity

0:55:08.000 --> 0:55:11.880
<v Speaker 1>or otherwise. You don't owe anybody on social media nothing.

0:55:12.000 --> 0:55:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Your life is not these people's entertainment. Don't think for

0:55:14.760 --> 0:55:17.239
<v Speaker 1>one second you have to get online and tell people

0:55:17.320 --> 0:55:19.560
<v Speaker 1>what's going on in your world, because guess what, if

0:55:19.600 --> 0:55:21.560
<v Speaker 1>you're happy, they're gonna find a way to steal your joy,

0:55:21.760 --> 0:55:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and if you're sad, they're gonna make it worse. If

0:55:24.440 --> 0:55:29.759
<v Speaker 1>those people in the town, it seems like that she's

0:55:29.760 --> 0:55:31.600
<v Speaker 1>just trying to let her fans know that she's okay,

0:55:31.640 --> 0:55:32.640
<v Speaker 1>you know. I mean that she has a lot of

0:55:32.680 --> 0:55:34.520
<v Speaker 1>people that ride for her, been praying for so I

0:55:34.600 --> 0:55:36.759
<v Speaker 1>think that's what that's what that was all about but

0:55:36.960 --> 0:55:38.719
<v Speaker 1>she also went on to talk about how she was

0:55:38.760 --> 0:55:40.799
<v Speaker 1>not ready to talk at first, and that's why it's

0:55:40.840 --> 0:55:43.320
<v Speaker 1>taking this long for her to even say anything, and

0:55:43.400 --> 0:55:46.719
<v Speaker 1>the muckle on I was protecting anybody. I just wasn't

0:55:46.760 --> 0:55:50.399
<v Speaker 1>ready to speak. Let's not know, you just immediately get

0:55:50.440 --> 0:55:54.240
<v Speaker 1>on the internet and start talking about imagine being twenty

0:55:54.280 --> 0:55:58.600
<v Speaker 1>five and you don't have both your parents. But Mamma

0:55:58.719 --> 0:56:00.839
<v Speaker 1>was my best friend. She you know, I'm still really

0:56:00.920 --> 0:56:04.360
<v Speaker 1>not over that. So you like, you're gonna try to

0:56:04.440 --> 0:56:07.480
<v Speaker 1>feel like your space with a bunch of people that

0:56:07.600 --> 0:56:09.880
<v Speaker 1>you think is making you happy, you know, And you

0:56:09.960 --> 0:56:12.560
<v Speaker 1>know I've been saying that ever since her mom passed away.

0:56:13.040 --> 0:56:16.080
<v Speaker 1>I just feel like, you know, she that's a difficult thing.

0:56:16.160 --> 0:56:17.920
<v Speaker 1>That was her best friend, her manager, Her mom was

0:56:17.960 --> 0:56:20.440
<v Speaker 1>with her all the time. So that's not something that

0:56:20.560 --> 0:56:22.960
<v Speaker 1>you just can just move on from and not have

0:56:23.040 --> 0:56:25.760
<v Speaker 1>any effect from. You don't have to talk now, Megan.

0:56:25.840 --> 0:56:28.759
<v Speaker 1>You don't owe anybody anything, not even your fans. The

0:56:28.840 --> 0:56:31.160
<v Speaker 1>only thing you owe, the only person you owe is

0:56:31.239 --> 0:56:35.000
<v Speaker 1>yourself to heal. Okay, not just physically from them gunshot wounds,

0:56:35.080 --> 0:56:38.360
<v Speaker 1>but mentally and emotionally and spiritually. Okay, go find a

0:56:38.440 --> 0:56:40.480
<v Speaker 1>therapist with somebody to talk to. F these people on

0:56:40.600 --> 0:56:42.800
<v Speaker 1>social media. But the joke's just gonna keep coming. I

0:56:42.840 --> 0:56:46.840
<v Speaker 1>saw people making jokes last night. Really well, yes, you

0:56:46.920 --> 0:56:48.840
<v Speaker 1>think you think people have sympathy for you when you

0:56:48.880 --> 0:56:51.520
<v Speaker 1>get online. Come on, man, they like to see you miserable.

0:56:51.760 --> 0:56:53.440
<v Speaker 1>They like to see you upset. They don't like They

0:56:53.440 --> 0:56:55.560
<v Speaker 1>don't want you out here living your life like it's golden. Please.

0:56:55.640 --> 0:56:59.920
<v Speaker 1>They they are happy that Megan the Stallion got shot. Man,

0:57:00.040 --> 0:57:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Misery loves company. You better believe that, especially online. All right, now,

0:57:03.640 --> 0:57:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Kendrick Perkins has some things to say about Lou Williams

0:57:06.560 --> 0:57:09.319
<v Speaker 1>going out and leaving the NBA bubble. He had an

0:57:09.360 --> 0:57:11.920
<v Speaker 1>excused absence right to go to a funeral, but then

0:57:11.960 --> 0:57:15.960
<v Speaker 1>he stopped by Magic City and he got some you know,

0:57:16.080 --> 0:57:18.600
<v Speaker 1>he got some backlash for that. So Kendrick Perkins is

0:57:18.680 --> 0:57:21.040
<v Speaker 1>one person who feels like that was irresponsible. Here's what

0:57:21.120 --> 0:57:23.760
<v Speaker 1>he said. I hadn't been a major city the wings

0:57:23.800 --> 0:57:26.920
<v Speaker 1>of Fire, but in this case and all, seriously, come on,

0:57:27.080 --> 0:57:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Lou will you gotta do better, man. Lou will is

0:57:30.000 --> 0:57:32.919
<v Speaker 1>a six thing year bet. He knows better. He should

0:57:33.080 --> 0:57:35.280
<v Speaker 1>know how to be more mature. You got a guy

0:57:35.360 --> 0:57:38.320
<v Speaker 1>that's a rookie and Zayor Williamson who left for a

0:57:38.480 --> 0:57:41.640
<v Speaker 1>family issue, and he helded it way better than Luke

0:57:41.720 --> 0:57:43.480
<v Speaker 1>and I can't believe people still talking about this. If

0:57:43.520 --> 0:57:45.720
<v Speaker 1>it was not a Script club, nobody would care. If

0:57:45.760 --> 0:57:49.840
<v Speaker 1>he stopped at KFC, Popeyes Zaxby's, nobody would even be

0:57:49.920 --> 0:57:52.320
<v Speaker 1>talking about this. People go to the Script Club to eat. Okay,

0:57:52.360 --> 0:57:54.640
<v Speaker 1>it's been happening since the beginning of time, knocking off man.

0:57:54.720 --> 0:57:57.080
<v Speaker 1>The man was grieving and he wanted to stop somewhere

0:57:57.160 --> 0:58:00.120
<v Speaker 1>he felt comfortable going to Magic City. That's it. They

0:58:00.160 --> 0:58:02.200
<v Speaker 1>replaced the eating, got something to eat, probably got to

0:58:02.240 --> 0:58:04.160
<v Speaker 1>smile a little bit, and he went home. Let the

0:58:04.240 --> 0:58:07.680
<v Speaker 1>man live now. Kendrick Perkins tweeted out, it's disturbing when

0:58:07.720 --> 0:58:10.760
<v Speaker 1>a rookie and Zion Williamson can act more mature than

0:58:10.960 --> 0:58:14.440
<v Speaker 1>NBA vet Lou Williams. That's because Zion Williamson also had

0:58:14.440 --> 0:58:16.600
<v Speaker 1>an excused absence and he said, you didn't hear anything

0:58:16.600 --> 0:58:19.040
<v Speaker 1>about him now. Lou will responded on Twitter and said,

0:58:19.080 --> 0:58:21.320
<v Speaker 1>fifteen years in this business, and the most dirt you

0:58:21.400 --> 0:58:23.240
<v Speaker 1>have on my name is stopping to get hot wings

0:58:23.360 --> 0:58:26.480
<v Speaker 1>during a pandemic perk, shut up and stop laughing and

0:58:26.560 --> 0:58:28.520
<v Speaker 1>saying it's just TV when you run into me too.

0:58:28.960 --> 0:58:30.720
<v Speaker 1>And then he said, but I digressed. I went home

0:58:30.760 --> 0:58:32.560
<v Speaker 1>to see a man off to his final resting place.

0:58:32.600 --> 0:58:34.640
<v Speaker 1>That was a giant in my life. I don't want

0:58:34.680 --> 0:58:36.600
<v Speaker 1>that to get lost in all this attention. So again,

0:58:36.800 --> 0:58:39.480
<v Speaker 1>long lived the Great Paul Williams Senior. Back to my

0:58:39.600 --> 0:58:43.480
<v Speaker 1>quarantine so I can join the guy soon. Peace. Oh listen,

0:58:44.280 --> 0:58:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Zion Williamson ain't had the wings that Magic City yet.

0:58:47.360 --> 0:58:50.040
<v Speaker 1>All right, as soon as Zion gets the Atlanta and

0:58:50.120 --> 0:58:52.720
<v Speaker 1>gets to taste them goddamn wings in Magic City, let's

0:58:52.760 --> 0:58:56.320
<v Speaker 1>see how mature he is as well. Okay, all right,

0:58:56.360 --> 0:58:58.120
<v Speaker 1>well I'm hand it la Yee, and that is your

0:58:58.240 --> 0:59:02.240
<v Speaker 1>rumor report. All right, thank you, miss Yee. Charlemaine giving

0:59:02.240 --> 0:59:07.520
<v Speaker 1>your donkeys. I need Tom Cotton, okay, he's a senator, um,

0:59:07.680 --> 0:59:09.320
<v Speaker 1>I need him to come to the front of the congregation.

0:59:09.360 --> 0:59:11.240
<v Speaker 1>We'd like to have a word with him. Please. All right,

0:59:11.280 --> 0:59:13.520
<v Speaker 1>we'll get to that next keeping lock this to breakfast club.

0:59:13.560 --> 0:59:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Good morning, it's time for don't give the day Democrat.

0:59:22.400 --> 0:59:24.600
<v Speaker 1>So being dunky of the day, a little bit of

0:59:24.680 --> 0:59:32.600
<v Speaker 1>a mix like a dope other day. Now, I've been

0:59:32.640 --> 0:59:34.840
<v Speaker 1>called a lot of my twenty three years. That donkey

0:59:34.920 --> 0:59:37.040
<v Speaker 1>of the day is a new wife. Donkey to day

0:59:37.040 --> 0:59:40.000
<v Speaker 1>for Tuesday, July twenty eighth goes to Arkansas Republican Senator

0:59:40.000 --> 0:59:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cotton. Oh, I can't tell you how heavy the

0:59:42.640 --> 0:59:44.920
<v Speaker 1>mandais is on this one. Ladies and gentlemen. If you

0:59:45.000 --> 0:59:48.439
<v Speaker 1>are allergic to that thick, cold white sauce commonly used

0:59:48.520 --> 0:59:50.880
<v Speaker 1>on sandwiches and hamburgers, then you may not want to

0:59:50.920 --> 0:59:53.800
<v Speaker 1>listen any further. But we have to get to it. Okay.

0:59:54.200 --> 0:59:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cotton has called the enslavement of millions of African

0:59:58.040 --> 1:00:02.320
<v Speaker 1>people are necessary evil. In fact, he said the necessary

1:00:02.360 --> 1:00:05.360
<v Speaker 1>evil upon which this country was built. His last name

1:00:05.480 --> 1:00:08.400
<v Speaker 1>is Cotton. What do you expect? Okay? He wears that

1:00:08.560 --> 1:00:11.640
<v Speaker 1>name proudly. You'd wear that name proudly too, if your

1:00:11.680 --> 1:00:14.160
<v Speaker 1>ancestors would have one's profiting off it, not picking it

1:00:14.360 --> 1:00:19.280
<v Speaker 1>all right, Cotton is what prolonged America's most serious social tragedy, slavery.

1:00:19.560 --> 1:00:21.880
<v Speaker 1>All right, from the eighteen thirties to the eighteen forties,

1:00:21.920 --> 1:00:24.560
<v Speaker 1>the common phrase was Cotton is king. So of course

1:00:24.960 --> 1:00:28.680
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cotton fields like slavery, wasn't necessary evil now, Henry

1:00:28.720 --> 1:00:32.400
<v Speaker 1>Lewis Gates Junior once wrote, Cotton was one of the

1:00:32.440 --> 1:00:36.480
<v Speaker 1>world's first luxury commodities and the commodity whose production most

1:00:36.600 --> 1:00:40.440
<v Speaker 1>dramatically turned millions of black human beings in the USA

1:00:40.600 --> 1:00:44.720
<v Speaker 1>themselves into a commodity bars. So it's not surprising to

1:00:44.800 --> 1:00:46.920
<v Speaker 1>me that Tom Cotton would take the stance he took. Now,

1:00:47.480 --> 1:00:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Tom Cotton recently introduced to Saving American History Act of

1:00:51.800 --> 1:00:56.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty. It should be the Saving American's White History

1:00:56.080 --> 1:00:58.760
<v Speaker 1>Act of twenty twenty. Okay. It prohibits the use of

1:00:58.840 --> 1:01:04.080
<v Speaker 1>federal funds teach the sixteen nineteen Project to kindergarten students

1:01:05.040 --> 1:01:08.040
<v Speaker 1>and K twelve schools our school districts. According to a

1:01:08.120 --> 1:01:10.120
<v Speaker 1>statement from the senator's office, basically, he doesn't want the

1:01:10.160 --> 1:01:12.360
<v Speaker 1>truth about how his country was found to be told.

1:01:12.560 --> 1:01:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's listen to what he had to say. The New

1:01:14.200 --> 1:01:17.520
<v Speaker 1>York Times should not be teaching American history to our kids, Frank,

1:01:17.840 --> 1:01:22.640
<v Speaker 1>The sixteen nineteen project is left wing AGAINDA It's revisionist

1:01:22.720 --> 1:01:26.040
<v Speaker 1>history at its worst. The entire premise of The New

1:01:26.120 --> 1:01:31.080
<v Speaker 1>York Times factually historically lauded sixteen nineteen project is that

1:01:31.200 --> 1:01:36.479
<v Speaker 1>America is at root systemically racist country to the core

1:01:36.920 --> 1:01:41.120
<v Speaker 1>and irritatable. I reject that root branch. America is a

1:01:41.240 --> 1:01:44.280
<v Speaker 1>great and noble country. And I take it you believe

1:01:44.400 --> 1:01:49.880
<v Speaker 1>that slavery is an important part of American history. We

1:01:50.080 --> 1:01:52.920
<v Speaker 1>have to study the history of slavery and its role

1:01:53.000 --> 1:01:55.680
<v Speaker 1>of impact on the development of our country, because otherwise

1:01:55.680 --> 1:01:58.600
<v Speaker 1>your canninger sent in our country as the founding father

1:01:58.720 --> 1:02:01.120
<v Speaker 1>said that it was the necessary evel upon which the

1:02:01.320 --> 1:02:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Union was built. But the Union was built in a way,

1:02:03.960 --> 1:02:06.320
<v Speaker 1>as Lincoln said, to put slavery on the force to

1:02:06.440 --> 1:02:10.600
<v Speaker 1>expection an extinction. Yes, unfortunately that was not done in

1:02:10.720 --> 1:02:13.840
<v Speaker 1>a peaceful fashion. Now I need to bring light to

1:02:13.920 --> 1:02:17.000
<v Speaker 1>these kinds of comments because we as a people need

1:02:17.080 --> 1:02:20.920
<v Speaker 1>to know the unnecessary evil we are up against. And yes,

1:02:21.000 --> 1:02:24.040
<v Speaker 1>I said unnecessary. Okay, it's people like this human jar

1:02:24.120 --> 1:02:27.480
<v Speaker 1>of hellman's Tom Cotton, who stand in the way of

1:02:27.560 --> 1:02:30.520
<v Speaker 1>the true liberation of black people in this country, who

1:02:30.640 --> 1:02:32.640
<v Speaker 1>stand in the way of true progress. Now do you

1:02:32.800 --> 1:02:36.160
<v Speaker 1>notice man Tom Cotton is widely seen as a possible

1:02:36.240 --> 1:02:39.280
<v Speaker 1>presidential candidate in twenty twenty four. Yes, a man who

1:02:39.360 --> 1:02:42.480
<v Speaker 1>believes slavery was a necessary evil in this country wants

1:02:42.520 --> 1:02:45.720
<v Speaker 1>to be a leader of the free world. Nicole Hannah

1:02:45.800 --> 1:02:48.640
<v Speaker 1>Jones Troplina Clu's bombs for her. She was awarded to

1:02:48.680 --> 1:02:52.040
<v Speaker 1>be Shears Public Surprise for a commentary for her introductory

1:02:52.160 --> 1:02:58.680
<v Speaker 1>essay to the sixteen nineteen project. She tweeted if slavery heritable, generational, permanent,

1:02:58.920 --> 1:03:01.880
<v Speaker 1>race based slavery where it was legal to rape, torture

1:03:01.920 --> 1:03:05.160
<v Speaker 1>and sell human beings for profit was a necessary evil,

1:03:05.160 --> 1:03:08.000
<v Speaker 1>As Tom Cotton says, it's hard to imagine what cannot

1:03:08.040 --> 1:03:11.680
<v Speaker 1>be justified if it is a means to an end.

1:03:11.840 --> 1:03:15.360
<v Speaker 1>Imagine thinking a non divisive curriculum is one that tells

1:03:15.480 --> 1:03:19.640
<v Speaker 1>black children the buying and selling of their ancestors, the rape, torture,

1:03:19.960 --> 1:03:23.840
<v Speaker 1>enforced labor of their ancestors for profit was just the

1:03:23.960 --> 1:03:27.400
<v Speaker 1>necessary evil. Trop on a clues bos Nicole Hannah Jones. Again,

1:03:27.920 --> 1:03:32.320
<v Speaker 1>that is my sentiments toast Crunch exactly. Okay, Tom Cotton

1:03:33.840 --> 1:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>love slavery. It's really just as them where he loves slavery.

1:03:37.280 --> 1:03:39.560
<v Speaker 1>He loved the idea of slavery because his last name

1:03:39.680 --> 1:03:43.640
<v Speaker 1>is named after the commodity that kept black Americans as

1:03:43.680 --> 1:03:46.760
<v Speaker 1>a commodity. And that's probably why Tom Cotton obstructs every

1:03:46.840 --> 1:03:50.800
<v Speaker 1>single criminal justice reform bill in the Senate because he

1:03:50.920 --> 1:03:55.160
<v Speaker 1>loves seeing people incarcerating, because incarceration is simply what modern

1:03:55.240 --> 1:03:58.520
<v Speaker 1>day slavery. We all know what that Thirteenth Amendment represents.

1:03:58.560 --> 1:04:01.040
<v Speaker 1>You see the documentary by being able to douvenay, and

1:04:01.120 --> 1:04:04.520
<v Speaker 1>if you haven't, you should go read it. Okay, it's simple.

1:04:04.560 --> 1:04:07.240
<v Speaker 1>The Thirteenth Amendment to the US Constitution provides that neither

1:04:07.280 --> 1:04:11.160
<v Speaker 1>slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime,

1:04:11.520 --> 1:04:14.640
<v Speaker 1>whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist

1:04:14.760 --> 1:04:18.040
<v Speaker 1>within the United States or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

1:04:18.240 --> 1:04:20.640
<v Speaker 1>You're committed crime, You're going back to being a slave,

1:04:20.800 --> 1:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>simple as that. And that's exactly what people like Tom

1:04:23.400 --> 1:04:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Cotton want to do. Some research on the guy, that's

1:04:26.160 --> 1:04:29.160
<v Speaker 1>all I ask you do your Google's. Tom Cotton fought

1:04:29.360 --> 1:04:31.600
<v Speaker 1>hard against the First Step Act, and there's the main

1:04:31.720 --> 1:04:35.080
<v Speaker 1>reason it's not stronger. He also obstructed the Juvenile Justice

1:04:35.080 --> 1:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>and Delinquency Protection Act. Last week, he introduced the bill

1:04:38.000 --> 1:04:42.400
<v Speaker 1>which Senator Kelly Loefler to create a gang member tracking database,

1:04:42.640 --> 1:04:45.680
<v Speaker 1>and he's been pushing for an enhancements for fentanol in

1:04:45.760 --> 1:04:49.360
<v Speaker 1>the federal system forever. He's also a huge wallmonger. Okay,

1:04:49.440 --> 1:04:51.640
<v Speaker 1>remember that time the president wanted to buy greenland That

1:04:51.760 --> 1:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>came from Tom Cotton. And Tom also calls the pandemic

1:04:56.040 --> 1:05:00.200
<v Speaker 1>the coronavirus the Wuhan, China virus, just like his president. Listen, man,

1:05:00.400 --> 1:05:04.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm not intelligent. I'm just articulate. Read that on YouTube yesterday.

1:05:04.960 --> 1:05:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Thought that was very accurate about myself, and I pay attention,

1:05:08.680 --> 1:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>and I read a little bit, and I have people

1:05:10.440 --> 1:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>around me way smarter than me who informed me about

1:05:12.760 --> 1:05:16.400
<v Speaker 1>these things. People like Tom Cotton would be happy to

1:05:16.560 --> 1:05:18.880
<v Speaker 1>have us back in chains, simple as that if it

1:05:19.000 --> 1:05:21.880
<v Speaker 1>meant that this country's economy could be stronger. And what's

1:05:21.920 --> 1:05:25.120
<v Speaker 1>even worse, Tom Cotton has no Democrats running against him

1:05:25.120 --> 1:05:27.080
<v Speaker 1>for his seat this year, so he will be back

1:05:27.120 --> 1:05:30.400
<v Speaker 1>in Congress and likely will run for president in twenty

1:05:30.520 --> 1:05:33.800
<v Speaker 1>twenty four. Let's not forget this man's name. Okay, so

1:05:33.960 --> 1:05:36.960
<v Speaker 1>you know who not to vote for. Okay, And how

1:05:37.040 --> 1:05:39.480
<v Speaker 1>can you forget his last name when his last name

1:05:39.560 --> 1:05:42.400
<v Speaker 1>is literally the reason there was a civil war. His

1:05:42.600 --> 1:05:45.400
<v Speaker 1>last name is literally the reason black people were or

1:05:45.480 --> 1:05:48.480
<v Speaker 1>looked upon as property to begin with all right, and

1:05:48.560 --> 1:05:51.600
<v Speaker 1>I even play white Devil's advocate with you. Tom Cotton,

1:05:51.720 --> 1:05:55.360
<v Speaker 1>just for a second, you think slavery was a necessary evil, Okay,

1:05:55.680 --> 1:05:57.960
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you why it wasn't. I can tell

1:05:58.000 --> 1:06:00.120
<v Speaker 1>you why it was not a necessary evil. It is

1:06:00.200 --> 1:06:03.160
<v Speaker 1>just evil. Because even if you say slavery is what

1:06:03.400 --> 1:06:07.720
<v Speaker 1>built this country, right, which is true, my response would be,

1:06:08.040 --> 1:06:10.640
<v Speaker 1>what the hell was wrong with your hands? Okay? If

1:06:10.720 --> 1:06:13.120
<v Speaker 1>you came to America to build this country, why not

1:06:13.280 --> 1:06:16.080
<v Speaker 1>build it your damn self with the Native Americans and

1:06:16.160 --> 1:06:18.880
<v Speaker 1>indigenous people that were already here. Nobody told you to

1:06:18.960 --> 1:06:21.720
<v Speaker 1>kidnap Africans and bring them over here and violently force

1:06:21.840 --> 1:06:23.880
<v Speaker 1>them to work for you for free. That didn't have

1:06:23.960 --> 1:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>to go down like that. You could have put in

1:06:26.160 --> 1:06:28.919
<v Speaker 1>your own work and treated the Native Americans who will

1:06:29.000 --> 1:06:31.920
<v Speaker 1>hear good, and built this country with them, and then

1:06:31.960 --> 1:06:35.080
<v Speaker 1>we would have all been starting on an equal playing

1:06:35.160 --> 1:06:38.760
<v Speaker 1>field because we built this country together, as opposed to

1:06:38.800 --> 1:06:42.360
<v Speaker 1>getting a bunch of Africans to build this country for free.

1:06:42.640 --> 1:06:45.680
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't a necessary evil. It wasn't necessary for you

1:06:45.760 --> 1:06:48.080
<v Speaker 1>to force us to work for you. That was a choice,

1:06:48.360 --> 1:06:51.680
<v Speaker 1>all right. Being a slave owner is a choice. Being

1:06:51.760 --> 1:06:56.240
<v Speaker 1>a violent, murderous rapist is a choice, and so is

1:06:56.320 --> 1:06:59.120
<v Speaker 1>being a donkey. Tom Cotton, you need to learn to

1:06:59.200 --> 1:07:02.760
<v Speaker 1>make better choices. Please let Chelsea Handling hand them my

1:07:03.440 --> 1:07:06.800
<v Speaker 1>white work, I mean light work. Hehaw heahaw. That is

1:07:06.840 --> 1:07:09.720
<v Speaker 1>way too much. Dan Mann is all right, well, thank

1:07:09.760 --> 1:07:13.200
<v Speaker 1>you for that. Donk here today. Yes, indeed, Now when

1:07:13.240 --> 1:07:16.400
<v Speaker 1>we come back, let's talk about these kids in school.

1:07:16.600 --> 1:07:18.520
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people are calling, all you're gonna bring

1:07:18.600 --> 1:07:20.320
<v Speaker 1>your kids? To take your kids to school? That is

1:07:20.320 --> 1:07:22.720
<v Speaker 1>the question. Eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.

1:07:22.760 --> 1:07:24.800
<v Speaker 1>I know for some people school starts in about a

1:07:24.800 --> 1:07:27.280
<v Speaker 1>week or so. For us it's in September, But that

1:07:27.440 --> 1:07:29.040
<v Speaker 1>is the question. Do you feel it's safe? Do you

1:07:29.120 --> 1:07:31.600
<v Speaker 1>feel like kids should be in school right now? Eight

1:07:31.720 --> 1:07:33.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred five eight five one oh five one. Will take

<v Speaker 1>Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy.

1:07:54.320 --> 1:07:56.360
<v Speaker 1>We are the Breakfast Club Good Morning. Now. If you

1:07:56.440 --> 1:07:58.720
<v Speaker 1>just joined us, we got a lot of callers earlier

1:07:58.760 --> 1:08:00.920
<v Speaker 1>today during Get It off your Chair and talking about

1:08:01.400 --> 1:08:04.000
<v Speaker 1>kids going to school the school year. So we're asking

1:08:04.120 --> 1:08:07.360
<v Speaker 1>eight hundred five eight five one o five one, are

1:08:07.400 --> 1:08:09.560
<v Speaker 1>you gonna allow your kids to go to school this year?

1:08:10.840 --> 1:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Let's start it with you, Charlemagne. I don't know. My

1:08:14.560 --> 1:08:17.840
<v Speaker 1>daughter is twelve. She has her own instincts, her own intuition.

1:08:18.160 --> 1:08:20.120
<v Speaker 1>She says she doesn't want to go back. I respect it,

1:08:20.320 --> 1:08:22.880
<v Speaker 1>but she also has no problem going to Chileing practice.

1:08:22.880 --> 1:08:25.080
<v Speaker 1>So if you can go to Chileing practice in social

1:08:25.160 --> 1:08:26.760
<v Speaker 1>distanced and I feel like you can do that in

1:08:26.840 --> 1:08:30.000
<v Speaker 1>school as well. I'm as soon to be five year old.

1:08:30.080 --> 1:08:32.040
<v Speaker 1>She just started school last year, so she didn't even

1:08:32.080 --> 1:08:35.240
<v Speaker 1>get to finish her first year in the classroom. So

1:08:35.760 --> 1:08:37.599
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't even know how that's gonna

1:08:37.600 --> 1:08:39.240
<v Speaker 1>work out. So I think, like a lot of parents,

1:08:39.280 --> 1:08:41.680
<v Speaker 1>it's just a lot of confusion on what we are

1:08:41.720 --> 1:08:44.680
<v Speaker 1>going to do. And I also understand my circumstances are

1:08:44.720 --> 1:08:47.200
<v Speaker 1>not like everyone else's because my wife is a personal trainer,

1:08:47.280 --> 1:08:49.920
<v Speaker 1>so she works from home and I can afford a nanny.

1:08:50.080 --> 1:08:52.519
<v Speaker 1>But even with that the problem is the school. My

1:08:52.600 --> 1:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>oldest daughter goes to right now is not offering an

1:08:56.280 --> 1:08:58.479
<v Speaker 1>online option. So I really don't know how this is

1:08:58.479 --> 1:09:00.799
<v Speaker 1>gonna play out. And it says a lot about America

1:09:00.880 --> 1:09:02.680
<v Speaker 1>that parents are being put in the position where they

1:09:02.760 --> 1:09:05.720
<v Speaker 1>have to choose their livelihood are the well being of

1:09:05.840 --> 1:09:07.720
<v Speaker 1>their kids. You can't even tell a parent to listen

1:09:07.760 --> 1:09:10.439
<v Speaker 1>to their gut, listen to their instinct in a situation

1:09:10.560 --> 1:09:12.639
<v Speaker 1>like this, because your instinct is to protect your kids.

1:09:12.720 --> 1:09:15.200
<v Speaker 1>But having a job and providing for your kids, it's

1:09:15.240 --> 1:09:17.599
<v Speaker 1>part of that protection. So it's just a terrible spot

1:09:17.680 --> 1:09:19.800
<v Speaker 1>to be in. So to be honest with you, I

1:09:19.920 --> 1:09:23.200
<v Speaker 1>don't know what I'm gonna do. Yeah, you know, I

1:09:23.320 --> 1:09:24.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of feel the same way. And the reason I

1:09:24.840 --> 1:09:28.120
<v Speaker 1>say that is because, yeah, my son, he plays football

1:09:28.160 --> 1:09:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and they have practice, so I mean they all practicing.

1:09:31.960 --> 1:09:35.479
<v Speaker 1>My daughter is going to NYU, but she's only taking

1:09:36.680 --> 1:09:39.200
<v Speaker 1>I think one class a week where she actually has

1:09:39.240 --> 1:09:42.080
<v Speaker 1>to go into that class. But the younger kids. The

1:09:42.120 --> 1:09:43.560
<v Speaker 1>difference with the younger kids, I know, at least the

1:09:43.560 --> 1:09:45.599
<v Speaker 1>older kids, they'll wear their masks, you know, I can

1:09:45.680 --> 1:09:48.240
<v Speaker 1>tell them things I can't expect my you know, my

1:09:48.360 --> 1:09:50.200
<v Speaker 1>six year old, my seven year old, my three year

1:09:50.200 --> 1:09:52.639
<v Speaker 1>old to wear a mask a full day in school.

1:09:52.960 --> 1:09:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I just can't see it. I don't see it. So

1:09:56.160 --> 1:09:58.599
<v Speaker 1>it's about about protection, you know. But I see kids

1:09:58.680 --> 1:10:00.960
<v Speaker 1>playing baseball, I see the lead us have started. I've

1:10:01.000 --> 1:10:04.000
<v Speaker 1>see kids playing team sports and go into camp. So

1:10:04.520 --> 1:10:06.280
<v Speaker 1>it's like, you know, but I want my kids to

1:10:06.400 --> 1:10:08.479
<v Speaker 1>kind of to have some type of normalcy, some type

1:10:08.479 --> 1:10:11.479
<v Speaker 1>of being able to interact with other students, to interact

1:10:11.520 --> 1:10:13.960
<v Speaker 1>with teachers, and being able to leave and do their work.

1:10:14.040 --> 1:10:16.880
<v Speaker 1>So it's a tough decision as a right now today,

1:10:17.040 --> 1:10:19.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so, but I don't know. That might

1:10:19.720 --> 1:10:21.720
<v Speaker 1>change in the next couple of weeks. Now, yeah, I

1:10:21.800 --> 1:10:23.439
<v Speaker 1>know you don't have kids, but what is your thought?

1:10:23.520 --> 1:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>You have a lot of nieces and god kids and

1:10:25.400 --> 1:10:28.759
<v Speaker 1>all lot of other stuff. I think that for people

1:10:29.080 --> 1:10:31.439
<v Speaker 1>that's really on you, you know. I also think it

1:10:31.520 --> 1:10:33.800
<v Speaker 1>depends on where you are, like what city you're in.

1:10:34.040 --> 1:10:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I know in some small cities they haven't had a

1:10:36.640 --> 1:10:40.880
<v Speaker 1>lot of issues with coronavirus. So if you feel comfortable

1:10:41.040 --> 1:10:43.479
<v Speaker 1>knowing that, okay, and this you know city that I

1:10:43.560 --> 1:10:46.960
<v Speaker 1>live in, maybe it's not as much of a concern

1:10:47.040 --> 1:10:48.960
<v Speaker 1>as it is in some of the hot spots. But

1:10:49.080 --> 1:10:51.360
<v Speaker 1>I do think as a parent, as an individual. It's

1:10:51.360 --> 1:10:54.360
<v Speaker 1>also hard for people if you don't have the technology

1:10:54.479 --> 1:10:56.960
<v Speaker 1>at home to keep you on part with the other students.

1:10:57.040 --> 1:10:58.519
<v Speaker 1>I understand all of that. I have a lot of

1:10:58.560 --> 1:11:00.599
<v Speaker 1>my friends talking to me about their own kids. One

1:11:00.640 --> 1:11:03.200
<v Speaker 1>of my friends has three children, and she's a single

1:11:03.280 --> 1:11:05.880
<v Speaker 1>mom and she works, and she's like, look, I can't

1:11:05.880 --> 1:11:09.160
<v Speaker 1>even go back to work unless my kids go to school.

1:11:09.160 --> 1:11:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Her baby father doesn't pay child support, so you know,

1:11:12.200 --> 1:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>she's struggling right now. And she's like, I don't know

1:11:13.960 --> 1:11:16.040
<v Speaker 1>how I'm going to maintain this unless my kids go

1:11:16.160 --> 1:11:19.120
<v Speaker 1>back to school. But then she's also concerned about their safety.

1:11:19.200 --> 1:11:21.360
<v Speaker 1>So I just think, what are the guidelines at the school?

1:11:21.439 --> 1:11:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Is following to ensure safety with the social distancing? And

1:11:25.720 --> 1:11:28.479
<v Speaker 1>is it going to be limited smaller classes, more spread out?

1:11:28.560 --> 1:11:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Are the kids getting temperature checked? You know? I think

1:11:31.200 --> 1:11:34.080
<v Speaker 1>you should take all those things into consideration. Yeah, I mean,

1:11:34.280 --> 1:11:36.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, I think about it is Charlemagne, you and

1:11:36.560 --> 1:11:39.280
<v Speaker 1>I both know. I mean, there are sick kids all

1:11:39.320 --> 1:11:41.840
<v Speaker 1>the time, Like your kid always has running nose, you

1:11:41.840 --> 1:11:43.920
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? Your kids get sick, they get

1:11:44.040 --> 1:11:48.479
<v Speaker 1>you know. Yeah, Yeah, the way my anxiety is set up.

1:11:48.479 --> 1:11:50.160
<v Speaker 1>I ain't got time for all that. I don't got

1:11:50.200 --> 1:11:53.560
<v Speaker 1>time for every cough, every running, No, because because I

1:11:53.600 --> 1:11:56.799
<v Speaker 1>don't even know if other illnesses exist anymore, everything is COVID.

1:11:57.040 --> 1:11:59.600
<v Speaker 1>But also too, who protecting the teachers because you know

1:11:59.640 --> 1:12:01.720
<v Speaker 1>the truth, you know, we don't know if you know

1:12:02.080 --> 1:12:04.840
<v Speaker 1>how coronavirus impacts children, Like I think I read a

1:12:04.880 --> 1:12:06.439
<v Speaker 1>story the other day that said the nine year old

1:12:06.520 --> 1:12:09.800
<v Speaker 1>died of coronavirus in Florida. Right, but those teachers have

1:12:09.880 --> 1:12:11.519
<v Speaker 1>to be exposed to those kids all the time, Like

1:12:11.600 --> 1:12:15.920
<v Speaker 1>those kids could be asymptomatic character carriers, and the teachers

1:12:15.960 --> 1:12:19.240
<v Speaker 1>are just there, wide open. And then those kids are

1:12:19.240 --> 1:12:21.120
<v Speaker 1>going back to their parents, and those parents are going

1:12:21.120 --> 1:12:23.720
<v Speaker 1>to their grandparents. Like it's just it's just it's just

1:12:23.840 --> 1:12:26.080
<v Speaker 1>all bad, man, It's just all bad. And like I

1:12:26.160 --> 1:12:28.600
<v Speaker 1>said before, it's just it's a tough spot to be

1:12:28.720 --> 1:12:31.880
<v Speaker 1>in because you your primary instinct as a parent is

1:12:31.920 --> 1:12:34.400
<v Speaker 1>to protect your child, right, but having a job and

1:12:34.520 --> 1:12:36.720
<v Speaker 1>providing for your kids as part of that protection. So

1:12:36.800 --> 1:12:39.160
<v Speaker 1>it's just a really bad spot to be in. Well,

1:12:39.200 --> 1:12:42.400
<v Speaker 1>let's go to the phone lines. Hello, who's this it's Courtney.

1:12:43.000 --> 1:12:45.519
<v Speaker 1>Hey Courtney. Now we're talking about your kids going to school.

1:12:45.760 --> 1:12:49.760
<v Speaker 1>What are you thinking? So I am yes and a no.

1:12:50.040 --> 1:12:51.439
<v Speaker 1>So I have a three year old and I have

1:12:51.479 --> 1:12:53.200
<v Speaker 1>a seven year old, So I have one in daycare

1:12:53.560 --> 1:12:55.519
<v Speaker 1>and I have one that's going in the third grade

1:12:55.600 --> 1:12:59.679
<v Speaker 1>this year. So yes, they need to go back to school.

1:12:59.800 --> 1:13:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Because my seven year old, you know, she goes to

1:13:02.160 --> 1:13:04.720
<v Speaker 1>another person for that little bit of extra help with

1:13:04.800 --> 1:13:07.280
<v Speaker 1>the reading and things like that that I cannot give

1:13:07.360 --> 1:13:11.200
<v Speaker 1>her working, you know, forty five fifty hours a week. Um,

1:13:11.720 --> 1:13:14.439
<v Speaker 1>and my three year olds he needs to interact with

1:13:14.560 --> 1:13:18.519
<v Speaker 1>other children. But to also think that kids school age

1:13:18.560 --> 1:13:21.519
<v Speaker 1>are not going to run around and you know, make

1:13:21.640 --> 1:13:24.400
<v Speaker 1>fun of it and you know, randomly licked their hands

1:13:24.520 --> 1:13:27.599
<v Speaker 1>or something that will happen as well, so that fart's

1:13:27.600 --> 1:13:31.440
<v Speaker 1>a little scary. But they need interaction with other children. Absolutely,

1:13:32.000 --> 1:13:34.800
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you. Yes and no for me too,

1:13:35.080 --> 1:13:37.599
<v Speaker 1>Thank you, mama. Let's go to ONEm online. Eight hundred

1:13:37.720 --> 1:13:40.800

1:13:40.840 --> 1:13:48.880
<v Speaker 1>Those Jay Cotton Cotton don't relate to the Senator Cotton. No,

1:13:49.080 --> 1:13:51.760
<v Speaker 1>but his people might have had my people. You know

1:13:51.800 --> 1:13:57.280
<v Speaker 1>what I'm trying. Whatever we very wide caught, but whatever,

1:13:57.680 --> 1:14:00.400
<v Speaker 1>whatever we're talking about the schools, right, that's what we're

1:14:00.400 --> 1:14:03.320
<v Speaker 1>talking about. What's your thoughts? I'm not boy all right now.

1:14:03.360 --> 1:14:05.680
<v Speaker 1>They don't have a consistent plan. They should have been up.

1:14:05.720 --> 1:14:07.760
<v Speaker 1>They should have came up with a plan on what

1:14:07.920 --> 1:14:09.760
<v Speaker 1>they was gonna do to keep the kids at home.

1:14:09.800 --> 1:14:12.680
<v Speaker 1>It should have been virtual school and already been in

1:14:12.720 --> 1:14:14.559
<v Speaker 1>the works. They should have already had it working out.

1:14:14.960 --> 1:14:17.640
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you, well, thank you? Agree with you

1:14:45.400 --> 1:14:47.719
<v Speaker 1>Breakfast Club. Now if he just joined us. We're talking

1:14:47.920 --> 1:14:50.120
<v Speaker 1>about your kids going to school this year. You're gonna

1:14:50.160 --> 1:14:51.880
<v Speaker 1>let your kids go to school this year? Hello? Who's this?

1:14:52.360 --> 1:14:55.240
<v Speaker 1>This beon calling out a Richmand and Virginia. Hey, what's up? Bro?

1:14:55.280 --> 1:14:57.080
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about your kids in school this year. You're

1:14:57.120 --> 1:14:59.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna let your kids go to school this year? I'm

1:14:59.200 --> 1:15:01.479
<v Speaker 1>thinking so, um, I got a I got a daughter

1:15:01.520 --> 1:15:03.599
<v Speaker 1>that's going to first grade, and I feel as if,

1:15:03.680 --> 1:15:07.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, the younger kids, it's very they needed to

1:15:07.200 --> 1:15:09.720
<v Speaker 1>school right now, like that, she's not gonna look at it.

1:15:09.800 --> 1:15:12.679
<v Speaker 1>She's not gonna look at a computer or a tablet

1:15:12.800 --> 1:15:15.400
<v Speaker 1>for like seven hours, and they're gonna have her attention

1:15:16.240 --> 1:15:18.320
<v Speaker 1>no more than two three hours. She's gonna be like, okay,

1:15:18.320 --> 1:15:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm over there. So I feel as if younger kids

1:15:21.120 --> 1:15:23.879
<v Speaker 1>they need the school. I know, I'm here in college,

1:15:24.120 --> 1:15:28.120
<v Speaker 1>they're doing have virtual and half in class. So like

1:15:28.439 --> 1:15:30.200
<v Speaker 1>all the younger kids, they kind of do need to

1:15:30.200 --> 1:15:32.240
<v Speaker 1>go to school because they really need it. High school

1:15:32.680 --> 1:15:35.800
<v Speaker 1>they can probably do laptops, but right now, the young

1:15:35.920 --> 1:15:38.800
<v Speaker 1>kids really need it. So listen, I agree, younger kids

1:15:38.880 --> 1:15:41.800
<v Speaker 1>need school, but younger kids also need their health, they

1:15:41.920 --> 1:15:44.640
<v Speaker 1>need their lives, you know. So it's just like we

1:15:44.760 --> 1:15:46.840
<v Speaker 1>got to make a decision at this at this at

1:15:46.880 --> 1:15:49.240
<v Speaker 1>this moment, like I would hate to see, um, you know,

1:15:49.760 --> 1:15:53.400
<v Speaker 1>something permanent happened based off temporary feelings. Yeah, but you know,

1:15:53.560 --> 1:15:56.519
<v Speaker 1>also it's like he said, with the younger kids, you know,

1:15:56.760 --> 1:15:58.360
<v Speaker 1>you can't expect them to stand there look at the

1:15:58.360 --> 1:16:01.240
<v Speaker 1>computer for five, six, seven, eight hours, you know, five hours,

1:16:01.360 --> 1:16:03.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, so that's difficult. So what are you teaching for?

1:16:03.840 --> 1:16:05.840
<v Speaker 1>An hour a day or two hours a day? The

1:16:06.040 --> 1:16:08.479
<v Speaker 1>parents are not teaching, so they don't know the curriculum,

1:16:08.520 --> 1:16:11.080
<v Speaker 1>they don't know how to teach, so your kids would

1:16:11.120 --> 1:16:16.639
<v Speaker 1>be behind. You know, an outbreak of coronavirus among kids

1:16:16.680 --> 1:16:20.120
<v Speaker 1>all across the country, that would be Hello difficult, right,

1:16:20.680 --> 1:16:28.280
<v Speaker 1>that would be hello difficult? Hello? Who's this? Yo? Yo? Yo? What? Good?

1:16:28.600 --> 1:16:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Good morning? What's happening? I can tell you smoking this morning,

1:16:33.720 --> 1:16:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I can tell you what. Thank you. I don't believe you.

1:16:37.200 --> 1:16:43.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe you. Liar, liar passed on fire? No, no,

1:16:44.200 --> 1:16:49.679
<v Speaker 1>my lits don't touch those things. But thank you, no timing,

1:16:49.840 --> 1:16:52.799
<v Speaker 1>good morning. I'm great. I am feeling grace this morning.

1:16:53.320 --> 1:16:58.000
<v Speaker 1>So here in Detroit last year, my children got definitely

1:16:58.120 --> 1:17:02.080
<v Speaker 1>notice the home saying hey, parents, can you send in righteol?

1:17:02.200 --> 1:17:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Can you send in alcohol? Wife? Remind your children to

1:17:05.600 --> 1:17:08.400
<v Speaker 1>use sanitizer. We need to to suspect this. We need

1:17:08.479 --> 1:17:12.600
<v Speaker 1>to just suspect that. I truly believe that coronavirus manifested

1:17:12.760 --> 1:17:16.880
<v Speaker 1>sometime last year in school, kids were massively getting sick

1:17:17.560 --> 1:17:22.000
<v Speaker 1>like crazy numbers here in Detroit there is no way

1:17:22.600 --> 1:17:27.240
<v Speaker 1>in hetch that I'm sending my kids into school. They

1:17:27.320 --> 1:17:31.479
<v Speaker 1>will be doing school online school. That's just that. There's

1:17:34.520 --> 1:17:39.240
<v Speaker 1>have five girls the age range from eleven to sixteen,

1:17:40.520 --> 1:17:44.400
<v Speaker 1>all fair sets. Two in middle school, three in high school.

1:17:45.160 --> 1:17:48.840
<v Speaker 1>They're not going to in person schools. There's just no

1:17:49.000 --> 1:17:50.960
<v Speaker 1>way you can tell me that my kids are gonna

1:17:50.960 --> 1:17:53.519
<v Speaker 1>be good. First on my eleven year old her soul.

1:17:53.880 --> 1:17:56.599
<v Speaker 1>She's not gonna keep that dang mask soon. I don't

1:17:56.600 --> 1:17:59.080
<v Speaker 1>even check it into the stores because she don't want

1:17:59.080 --> 1:18:02.320
<v Speaker 1>to keep the masks off right away. It's not going

1:18:02.400 --> 1:18:06.000
<v Speaker 1>to happen. All right, Well, thank you mama. All right,

1:18:06.120 --> 1:18:08.479
<v Speaker 1>Well what's tomorrow left? There is a morrow? I don't

1:18:08.520 --> 1:18:10.559
<v Speaker 1>know if there is a morrow. Man. Like I said,

1:18:11.280 --> 1:18:13.640
<v Speaker 1>you can't even tell somebody to trust their instincts in

1:18:13.720 --> 1:18:16.879
<v Speaker 1>a situation like this, because as a parent, your instinct

1:18:17.000 --> 1:18:19.439
<v Speaker 1>automatically is to protect your kids, to protect your kids

1:18:19.479 --> 1:18:22.400
<v Speaker 1>from any harm if you can prevent it. But having

1:18:22.439 --> 1:18:25.280
<v Speaker 1>a job and providing for your kids it's part of

1:18:25.360 --> 1:18:28.000
<v Speaker 1>that protection. So it's just a bad spot to be in.

1:18:28.320 --> 1:18:31.920
<v Speaker 1>So it really is listen to each their own type

1:18:31.920 --> 1:18:35.000
<v Speaker 1>of situations. There's a small city in Georgia. They're going

1:18:35.040 --> 1:18:37.520
<v Speaker 1>to be putting students in classrooms this week in Jefferson.

1:18:38.120 --> 1:18:40.839
<v Speaker 1>So this week they're going to start in person classes

1:18:40.920 --> 1:18:44.679
<v Speaker 1>without a mass requirement. Yeah, that's Jeffersons in high school.

1:18:45.080 --> 1:18:46.920
<v Speaker 1>But there's a lot of schools that are open down. Like,

1:18:47.080 --> 1:18:50.559
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of schools open down. I was talking

1:18:50.560 --> 1:18:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to a friend of mine, his Jewish, and he was like,

1:18:52.400 --> 1:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>his kids are in school, and the bus picks him up,

1:18:55.040 --> 1:18:56.840
<v Speaker 1>the bus drops him back off, and he says, they

1:18:56.920 --> 1:18:59.920
<v Speaker 1>had no cases of COVID and and they're taking every

1:19:00.120 --> 1:19:01.760
<v Speaker 1>proper you know, calls for it. And he and he

1:19:01.840 --> 1:19:04.320
<v Speaker 1>has kids that I believe a like six seven. So

1:19:04.520 --> 1:19:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, people are doing it, and it seems like

1:19:06.800 --> 1:19:09.759
<v Speaker 1>it's working. I just I just don't at my anxiety

1:19:09.840 --> 1:19:11.880
<v Speaker 1>and my heart is telling me just chill out for

1:19:11.920 --> 1:19:13.920
<v Speaker 1>a little bit, so we'll just chill. I don't see it,

1:19:14.000 --> 1:19:17.400
<v Speaker 1>but I thank God that, you know, I am in

1:19:17.479 --> 1:19:21.000
<v Speaker 1>the position to be able to just chill. That's right.

1:19:21.120 --> 1:19:24.759
<v Speaker 1>Everybody don't have that luxury, and it is indeed a luxury.

1:19:25.040 --> 1:19:27.479
<v Speaker 1>So it's a tough spot for people to be in.

1:19:28.160 --> 1:19:31.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, we got rumors on the way, Yes,

1:19:31.439 --> 1:19:33.680
<v Speaker 1>we are going to be talking about Kyrie Irving and

1:19:33.840 --> 1:19:36.640
<v Speaker 1>he has committed one point five million dollars. We'll tell

1:19:36.680 --> 1:19:38.880
<v Speaker 1>you where that money's going. All right, We'll get into

1:19:38.920 --> 1:19:41.080
<v Speaker 1>that next keep it locked. This to Breakfast Club. Good morning,

1:19:41.320 --> 1:19:48.439
<v Speaker 1>the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela, Ye,

1:19:48.640 --> 1:19:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Let's get

1:19:51.080 --> 1:19:53.720
<v Speaker 1>to the room as us to a Kyrie Irving. This

1:19:54.120 --> 1:20:02.760
<v Speaker 1>is the rum of report with Angela all breakfast all right.

1:20:02.840 --> 1:20:05.759
<v Speaker 1>So Kyrie Irving has committed one point five million dollars

1:20:05.800 --> 1:20:08.519
<v Speaker 1>and that is for w NBA players who chose not

1:20:08.640 --> 1:20:11.800
<v Speaker 1>to play in this season. He said, whether a person

1:20:11.840 --> 1:20:15.080
<v Speaker 1>decided to fight for social justice, play basketball, focus on

1:20:15.160 --> 1:20:17.639
<v Speaker 1>physical or mental health, or simply connect with their families,

1:20:17.960 --> 1:20:22.040
<v Speaker 1>this initiative can hopefully support their priorities and decisions for

1:20:22.200 --> 1:20:28.120
<v Speaker 1>that donation. We've heard some players talk about their own health.

1:20:28.240 --> 1:20:32.439
<v Speaker 1>Other w NBA players like Liz uh There's a few

1:20:32.680 --> 1:20:35.080
<v Speaker 1>different w NBA players who have decided to opt out

1:20:35.120 --> 1:20:39.519
<v Speaker 1>this season, some for political reasons. Um, you know, Natasha

1:20:39.600 --> 1:20:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Cloud is not joining her team this year to focus

1:20:41.479 --> 1:20:44.840
<v Speaker 1>on helping to fight for social justice. For whatever reason,

1:20:45.120 --> 1:20:47.760
<v Speaker 1>that's going to help. I love it. I mean I

1:20:48.120 --> 1:20:50.280
<v Speaker 1>get it. Like when you believe in something and you

1:20:50.400 --> 1:20:52.120
<v Speaker 1>got the money to put it up, do it like,

1:20:52.240 --> 1:20:54.639
<v Speaker 1>salute to him for that. That's a great cause. That's

1:20:54.680 --> 1:20:57.479
<v Speaker 1>a great, great deed he did. He's a personal decisions

1:20:57.520 --> 1:20:59.760
<v Speaker 1>for people. You know, we've seen some players who are

1:21:00.120 --> 1:21:03.320
<v Speaker 1>using their time on the court to also discuss social

1:21:03.400 --> 1:21:06.240
<v Speaker 1>justice and do things of that sort. Some people are

1:21:06.320 --> 1:21:08.240
<v Speaker 1>sitting out to take care of things. Some people have

1:21:08.360 --> 1:21:11.240
<v Speaker 1>health issues. For whatever your personal reason is, you know,

1:21:11.280 --> 1:21:13.920
<v Speaker 1>you shouldn't be forced to go play during a time

1:21:14.000 --> 1:21:18.240
<v Speaker 1>like this. All right now, Comedian Corey Hocum is under

1:21:18.280 --> 1:21:20.479
<v Speaker 1>the five right now. He did more than a culture

1:21:20.520 --> 1:21:24.160
<v Speaker 1>podcast and he talks about a number of different things,

1:21:24.479 --> 1:21:27.000
<v Speaker 1>and he thought he talks about the coronavirus pandemic and

1:21:27.200 --> 1:21:30.679
<v Speaker 1>essential workers, and people were not happy what he said

1:21:30.680 --> 1:21:33.760
<v Speaker 1>about people working at McDonald's. It's like, right now, it's

1:21:33.760 --> 1:21:37.439
<v Speaker 1>the time in the world where a busters who mopping

1:21:37.520 --> 1:21:40.160
<v Speaker 1>the floor of McDonald's can tell you to put on

1:21:40.280 --> 1:21:51.240
<v Speaker 1>your mad I ain't got mopping up mask. If I

1:21:51.320 --> 1:21:55.439
<v Speaker 1>got COVID and to kill you, I did you a favor. Yeah,

1:21:55.439 --> 1:21:57.479
<v Speaker 1>but people gotta understand he's a comedian. What he said

1:21:57.560 --> 1:21:59.320
<v Speaker 1>was foul, but he's a comedian. You know, you can

1:21:59.400 --> 1:22:02.040
<v Speaker 1>make jokes, but it's gotta be funny. Was that funny?

1:22:03.320 --> 1:22:05.759
<v Speaker 1>It's funny to somebody, you know. I love Corey Holkam.

1:22:05.800 --> 1:22:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Corey and I have different philosophies on that though, because

1:22:08.000 --> 1:22:10.640
<v Speaker 1>I feel like you can learn from anyone. You know,

1:22:10.760 --> 1:22:12.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't care if it's a crackhead. I don't care

1:22:12.600 --> 1:22:15.280
<v Speaker 1>if it's an alcoholic, I don't I don't give a

1:22:15.360 --> 1:22:18.000
<v Speaker 1>person that's showing you what not to do based on

1:22:18.120 --> 1:22:20.080
<v Speaker 1>how they've they've lived their life. I feel like you

1:22:20.160 --> 1:22:22.280
<v Speaker 1>can learn from anyone, and I'm gonna respect your space.

1:22:22.280 --> 1:22:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna respect your authority. If i'm in McDonald's and

1:22:24.680 --> 1:22:27.479
<v Speaker 1>you to manag Jim McDonald's, I'm gonna your spot. Such. Yeah,

1:22:27.479 --> 1:22:31.720
<v Speaker 1>absolutely that. I think if he said if I got cold,

1:22:31.840 --> 1:22:33.519
<v Speaker 1>if I got COVID and it killed you, I did

1:22:33.560 --> 1:22:36.640
<v Speaker 1>you a favor, making it seem like people who work

1:22:36.680 --> 1:22:40.360
<v Speaker 1>at McDonald's are less than beneath him, and are beneath

1:22:40.400 --> 1:22:42.840
<v Speaker 1>him and don't deserve to live, which is absolutely not true.

1:22:43.000 --> 1:22:45.599
<v Speaker 1>Like that's nah, right, I'm trying to express some love

1:22:45.720 --> 1:22:48.479
<v Speaker 1>right now too. We appreciate everybody that's working right now

1:22:48.520 --> 1:22:51.240
<v Speaker 1>because it is. It is a risk, all right. Now.

1:22:51.280 --> 1:22:54.559
<v Speaker 1>Another comedian that people are talking about is Phase on Love.

1:22:54.640 --> 1:22:57.200
<v Speaker 1>He was on Hip Hop Uncensored podcast and he had

1:22:57.280 --> 1:22:59.280
<v Speaker 1>this to say about jay Z just out of nowhere.

1:23:00.120 --> 1:23:02.479
<v Speaker 1>Jay Z, I like him as a guy in the

1:23:02.560 --> 1:23:06.280
<v Speaker 1>whole eric thing he created about this fake dope dealing.

1:23:06.720 --> 1:23:08.880
<v Speaker 1>That's why I stopped this like him, like, I don't

1:23:08.920 --> 1:23:12.040
<v Speaker 1>think you ever want to fight like this is never

1:23:12.120 --> 1:23:15.880
<v Speaker 1>so cocaine ever, because you know why he keeps telling

1:23:15.960 --> 1:23:18.280
<v Speaker 1>all these stories about how he did this and did this,

1:23:18.800 --> 1:23:22.200
<v Speaker 1>but there's no stories of the other side. Somebody gonna

1:23:22.240 --> 1:23:25.200
<v Speaker 1>bust you, somebody, Nobody ever sold you pancake. It was

1:23:25.280 --> 1:23:28.639
<v Speaker 1>always Miami Vice. Now that is one I can honestly say,

1:23:29.320 --> 1:23:36.160
<v Speaker 1>why do we care well Love thinks about jay Z? Said?

1:23:36.520 --> 1:23:38.160
<v Speaker 1>He said, I know me and Hove haven't had the

1:23:38.200 --> 1:23:40.720
<v Speaker 1>best relationship publicly, but FAZINE don't know what the f

1:23:40.920 --> 1:23:43.720
<v Speaker 1>he's talking about, whether legally or illegally, and where it's

1:23:43.760 --> 1:23:49.560
<v Speaker 1>got to it. Yeah, I don't know thinks about jay Z, Like,

1:23:49.560 --> 1:23:51.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know why that was a conversation, how

1:23:51.280 --> 1:23:53.920
<v Speaker 1>it came up about him and jay Z selling drugs.

1:23:53.960 --> 1:23:56.840
<v Speaker 1>He didn't sell drugs with Jay. He didn't know Jay

1:23:56.880 --> 1:23:59.080
<v Speaker 1>going up. I don't even understand. I was confused, Oh

1:23:59.160 --> 1:24:02.280
<v Speaker 1>was fifty years old. I'm just assuming Hove having sold

1:24:02.360 --> 1:24:09.439
<v Speaker 1>drugs probably three decades. Yeah, why is this a conversation? Listen,

1:24:09.640 --> 1:24:12.080
<v Speaker 1>it's podcast time and there's a lot going on in

1:24:12.120 --> 1:24:14.960
<v Speaker 1>the podcast. For instance, Joe Biden, he had some things

1:24:15.000 --> 1:24:19.160
<v Speaker 1>to say about Logic, who retired recently. Logic, you don't

1:24:19.200 --> 1:24:23.800
<v Speaker 1>get to announce this because we don't care. Hey, let's

1:24:23.840 --> 1:24:28.479
<v Speaker 1>celebrate Logic getting out. He does get some empathy for me. Well,

1:24:28.560 --> 1:24:32.240
<v Speaker 1>since Danny has backtracked and he actually apologized to Lodge,

1:24:32.680 --> 1:24:35.559
<v Speaker 1>here's what he said last week. I came in here

1:24:36.160 --> 1:24:40.240
<v Speaker 1>feeling pretty tumultuous, unable to properly read the room, and

1:24:40.400 --> 1:24:44.840
<v Speaker 1>just hating myself and life. Honestly, and unfortunately I projected

1:24:44.960 --> 1:24:49.000
<v Speaker 1>some of that onto you, Lodge, and for that I

1:24:49.160 --> 1:24:52.759
<v Speaker 1>want to apologize. That was wrong of me. I should

1:24:52.800 --> 1:24:55.679
<v Speaker 1>be able to think that you aren't the best rapper

1:24:55.800 --> 1:25:00.160
<v Speaker 1>in the world, but celebrate your retirement. Definitely called them.

1:25:00.240 --> 1:25:05.519
<v Speaker 1>Lodge hopefully understood what he did wrong, and you know,

1:25:05.640 --> 1:25:07.439
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure Logic called them, and they had a

1:25:07.479 --> 1:25:10.280
<v Speaker 1>conversation and he apologized, Joe Budden is not a fan

1:25:10.360 --> 1:25:12.839
<v Speaker 1>of Lodgic. Expressing that you're not a fan of somebody

1:25:13.200 --> 1:25:15.680
<v Speaker 1>does not mean you're doing them wrong. Okay, Well, I

1:25:15.720 --> 1:25:18.200
<v Speaker 1>think he was just talking about letting him retire in peace. Also,

1:25:18.560 --> 1:25:22.519
<v Speaker 1>he's retiring. If you have commentary on his retirement, you

1:25:22.840 --> 1:25:25.320
<v Speaker 1>are allowed to do that too. Listen, Logic sold eighty

1:25:25.360 --> 1:25:27.800
<v Speaker 1>five thousand records last week. If I'm Logic, do I

1:25:27.920 --> 1:25:29.519
<v Speaker 1>care about the opinion of Joe Budden or do I

1:25:29.520 --> 1:25:31.160
<v Speaker 1>care about the eighty five thousand people who bought my

1:25:31.200 --> 1:25:33.200
<v Speaker 1>record last week? Obviously he cares about the opinion of

1:25:33.280 --> 1:25:36.400
<v Speaker 1>Joe Budden exactly. And that's and that's something we all

1:25:36.600 --> 1:25:38.360
<v Speaker 1>have to work on. We all have to work on,

1:25:38.880 --> 1:25:43.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, gravitating towards the energy that we don't agree with.

1:25:43.400 --> 1:25:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Why we do that as humans, I don't know. But

1:25:45.680 --> 1:25:48.439
<v Speaker 1>you have to be intentional about focusing on the people

1:25:48.479 --> 1:25:51.360
<v Speaker 1>who actually care about you, not the ones who don't. Yeah, well,

1:25:51.400 --> 1:25:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Joe Button said that, you know, he felt he was disrespectful,

1:25:54.200 --> 1:25:57.120
<v Speaker 1>so he moved walk his comments. All right, Well, I'm
