153
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: people who like cats. I just said I don't know anybody.

154
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 1: If I said I don't know, I just don't know

155
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: any men with cats, That's all I said. Yeah, I

156
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 1: don't know men with cats being a man who has

157
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: because you can leave a cat in the house for

158
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: like three days and they'll be okay. Mike Tyson had

159
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 1: a white tiger. That's the closest person I know they

160
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: had a cat. I don't know. Let's not tell other

161
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: guys with cats. Tell you get it off your chests.

162
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 1: Eight hundred five eight five one on five one. If

163
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:34,719
Speaker 1: you need to vent hit this up. Now it's the

164
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:41,719
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. Good morning, the Breakfast Club. Morning. Everybody is

165
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: DJ Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We all to

166
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building. Yes,

167
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: and have doctor Lakeisha home and welcome. Thank you, thank

168
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,160
Speaker 1: you so much for having me. I've been so excited

169
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: to get here. And before we start, I really want

170
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: to tell you our congratulations on everything that you're doing. Oh,

171
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 1: thank you very much, thank you so much. So you

172
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: have the founder and CEO of the Village Market. I

173
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: am headquartered in the amazing city of Atlanta. I founded

174
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: the Village Market to accelerate black entrepreneurs in twenty sixteen.

175
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 1: What is it exactly? The Village Market is a company

176
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: that focuses on creating marketplaces, creating campaigns, and I also

177
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 1: have a retail store at punt City Market in Atlanta.

178
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: But the purpose is upward mobility. I believe that cooperative

179
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: economics in a real way should be tangible, like that

180
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 1: of like that of Tulsa, and that's what I've created

181
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 1: with the Village Market. How did you get into that?

182
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: Which started you with that? You know? As an interesting career,

183
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: I was a teacher for years. Um, I taught in

184
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 1: the Mississippi Delta something from Mississippi. Enough not enough, clear,

185
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,239
Speaker 1: not enough. But let me tell you. My first salary

186
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: in two thousand and four was twenty seven thousand dollars. Y'all.

187
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:52,720
Speaker 1: I thought I was rich though I was only twenty

188
00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,360
Speaker 1: two years old. But when you understand that, now, that's

189
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,359
Speaker 1: not even a livable wage. But I was teaching in Missisippi,

190
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: Mississippi Dela twenty seven thousand dollars a year. Now, of

191
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: course you can cross state lines. Texas does pretty well.

192
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: Of course New York does well. In California does extremely

193
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 1: well for teachers, but well compared to what thought. If

194
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: we if we're compared and it to Mississippi, then it

195
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 1: looks like teachers are being paid. But I don't think

196
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,040
Speaker 1: teachers are paid enough. I love what you said about

197
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,600
Speaker 1: group economics being tangible. Isn't that up to us though?

198
00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: To make it tangible? Oh? Absolutely, absolutely, it's up to us.

199
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: Everything is up to us. Right, So we have an

200
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: urgency at this time. Either we're going to be the answer,

201
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: we're going to be the problem. And tangible means that

202
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: we can open businesses that's cooperative that. When I opened

203
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 1: the Village Market, it wasn't just me. I'm the founder

204
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 1: of that, but now I represent thousands of businesses in Atlanta.

205
00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: Outside of Atlanta. My retail store that I told you

206
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: all about, the Village Retail, I gave over forty businesses

207
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: the first opportunity in mainstream real estate in Atlanta. So

208
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: that's a cooperative retail store. That's an incubator. So being

209
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: on the shelves that people can actually shot from you.

210
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 1: And so that's what it means for it to be tangible.

211
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: I love accelerators. I have my own. I love incubators.

212
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: I have my own, but there should be something at

213
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,880
Speaker 1: the end of that. Again, I'm a former teacher. Experience

214
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: is the best teacher. I want to put entrepreneurs in

215
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: a place, but you can be in front of your

216
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: customer where you can make some real money. Now, how

217
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,319
Speaker 1: can black businesses receive more funding for their businesses. I

218
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: know it's very difficult a lot of times to get

219
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: money and to raise money. So how can they do that?

220
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna name some people that's doing it again. Yes,

221
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: tangible again. Collab Capital is based in Atlanta. New Voice

222
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 1: is fun. I think they're based here in New York.

223
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 1: Fearless Fun Airing is doing a great job. But these

224
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: are three funds, and no, there's more funds out there,

225
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 1: but these funds are being led by black folks. Is

226
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: it easy to get the money though? No, absolutely, it's

227
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: not easy to get the money. Absolutely not. I mean again,

228
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: it's not easy to get the money. But what has

229
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: been easy for black folk? You know either if we know,

230
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: the odds are there, but it takes some fearless people

231
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: who are persistent enough and who wants to agitate the

232
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:02,920
Speaker 1: system to make sure that we get the money that

233
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: we need. I saw this stat and it kind of

234
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: blew me away because when you think of Atlanta, you

235
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: think that's like the black business mecca, right, But according

236
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: to Prosperity Now, Atlanta's black businesses of value that fifty

237
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: eight thousand, eighty five dollars compared to the Latin next

238
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 1: businesses that over four hundred and fifty thousand, and white

239
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: businesses that over six hundred and fifty thous. I don't

240
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: even want to call that a gap. That's just no,

241
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: that no, that is disrespectful to why Yeah, I mean,

242
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,400
Speaker 1: because this country is built on capitalism, so anytime that

243
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 1: there is probably anytime that there is well, there is

244
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: a desperation of poverty. And that's be it Atlanta, be

245
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: it Mississippi, be it in La. You're gonna always see

246
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: this gap. Now, what I do know that's true about Atlanta.

247
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 1: If there's a city where black people can have up mobility,

248
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: Atlanta as a city for it. But when you see

249
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 1: a pervasive wealth gap like that, we can't stay in

250
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: our bubble of saying that it is the Black Melca.

251
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: It's the city that can't be the Black Mecca because

252
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: we also lead the entry one of the leading cities

253
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: in a country that has the most black millionaires. And

254
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 1: also the generating of black businesses are now growing from

255
00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: that fifty thousand to getting closer that seven seventy five

256
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,559
Speaker 1: one hundred thousand. But what that means when you get

257
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: to a place where you're making some real cash, it

258
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 1: means you can hire folks. Now you also talk about

259
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 1: you know, I'm reading the same studies that said approximately

260
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 1: twenty eight days money stays in the Asian communities, nineteen

261
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: days in Jewish community, seventeen days in white communities, and

262
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: just six hours in Black communities. Why is that can

263
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 1: we start with anything? Is that the reason why for

264
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: commercial real estate? Yes? Right, So when when these developers

265
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: are coming into cities, we're not controlling what's being open.

266
00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: We don't own the land. Again, it's anytime there as

267
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: well there's poverty, but anytime there is where we're in

268
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: a place of constant the leasing and not owning, we

269
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: have no truth say so what's going to be open

270
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: in those communities? But the circulation of the dollar is

271
00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: I mean overt racism Again, you think about Tulsa, Oklahoma,

272
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 1: when it was true that our dollars circulated in our communities.

273
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: But what happened up with mobility when we produced so many,

274
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: so many black millionaires, when so many black businesses were

275
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: being funded from insurance to teachers, to the dude that

276
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 1: cut your lawn, to the guy that shaped up your

277
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 1: beer were all black folks. We were winning during that time.

278
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: And then bombs were dropped on us and this black

279
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 1: city was burned down and there was no way even

280
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 1: though there was insurance there, they wouldn't even grant at

281
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 1: their insurance claims. So what happens in this country when

282
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: black people began to accelerate? Then literally the airess knocked

283
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 1: out of us, and we were pushed down further than

284
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: where we were before we started. So that is why

285
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: that number is persistent. It was created to be that way.

286
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: But we have to know that that number is there.

287
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: But we can't wait on other people to shop from us.

288
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,520
Speaker 1: There's enough black people in this country to shop from

289
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 1: black people. But I do know that it's also amazing

290
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: that other people are shopping from black folks too. All Right,

291
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: we got more with doctor Lakeisha Holman when we come

292
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: back as the Breakfast Club. Good Morning, the Breakfast Club

293
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: Morning everybody is DJ Envy and Jela Yee. Charlomagne, the

294
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: guy we all the Breakfast Club was still kicking it

295
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: with Doctor Lakeisha Harmon Charlomagne. You feel that black people

296
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: supporting black businesses as you're growing, Oh, absolutely, I think

297
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: it's growing. What is really shifting, rather than growing, it

298
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: is that our consciousness is shifting. I think we're in

299
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: a very special time. I wrote a couple of weeks

300
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: ago that I believe that we're in our renaissance because

301
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: when it's things are desperately bad, there's also something that's

302
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: pervasively really good. And you hear more people now not

303
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: just talking about buying black, but you see entrepreneurs on

304
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 1: the cover of magazines. When did that happen? Right? Yeah,

305
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: when did that happen? And we're talking about people getting

306
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 1: their evaluations, we're talking about companies being acquired. I look

307
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: at what happened with the gathering spy in Greenwood. Shout

308
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: out to my friends Ryan and TK and what they

309
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: did that is black collaboration. But I think, though, we

310
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 1: have to make sure that in our consciousness that buying black,

311
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: hiring black, referring black is a part of our lifestyle

312
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: and having grace And the reason I say having graces,

313
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: it's so funny. We talked about it all the time.

314
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: How many times you go to McDonald's and they mess

315
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: up your order or you go in order that the

316
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: ice cream machine ain't working. But if you go to

317
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,040
Speaker 1: a black business and they mess up one time, you

318
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: ready to go on Instagram and say I'm never coming back.

319
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 1: Like people have to understand there has to be a

320
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: learning curve as well, because this is new to a

321
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: lot of us, especially when when these businesses come. Yeah,

322
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: I mean you think and grace is my words on

323
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,760
Speaker 1: halfy set that you see how big got smiled that's

324
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: my word for the year. I think that's the that's

325
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: the word for our generation that we must have with

326
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: black businesses, but we should have overall, even if you're

327
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: a business or not, but just ask the humanity of

328
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: black people together. Now is what is Our Village United?

329
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: That's my nonprofit. Again, when you start a business, then

330
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 1: you think of like five more. I started a lunch

331
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 1: our Village United actually in twenty seventeen, but I didn't

332
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: get it going until the pandemic when so many sole

333
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: proprietors were applying for pppee loans and didn't get it.

334
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 1: It kept me up at night and I said, I

335
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,119
Speaker 1: need to create an incubator that's just for senior operators,

336
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: but that person that is just them. And so Our

337
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: Village United focuses on a twelve week incubator. We graduated

338
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: our hundred businesses since the pandemic about two to three

339
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: weeks ago. But we provide full services for twelve weeks

340
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,720
Speaker 1: to entrepreneurs and then they graduate into our incubator program,

341
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 1: which means you're a part of the village now, but

342
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: from CPA services and we all know the tax season

343
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: just ended. We make sure that they're in front and center.

344
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: We also make sure one of the things that I experienced,

345
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,840
Speaker 1: especially as my company began to boom, my anxiety spiked.

346
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: I found myself being more anxious than I ever experienced.

347
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 1: And I made sure that our village unit it was

348
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: paired with mental health services. So every entrepreneur that's a

349
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 1: part of the village is then paired with doctor Jeor Beckford.

350
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: Shout out for her, who is our licensed therapist on

351
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: our staff who works with these entrepreneurs and focus groups

352
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 1: and also one on one, because I don't want us

353
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 1: to have the wealth without the health. Yeah, Sarah jas

354
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: Roberts said, because I asked her about that. You know

355
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,239
Speaker 1: when how come whenever you achieve something new or go

356
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,600
Speaker 1: to a new level, your anxiety starts to go crazy.

357
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: And she said, because you're experiencing something new, absolutely, And

358
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: that's that's just how I embraced, Like, oh, like, it's

359
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 1: not because I feel like that's when this anxiety is expected.

360
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 1: You know, it's when the anxiety is not expected that

361
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 1: calls you to have the panic attacks. But when you're

362
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: trying something new, doing something new, yeah, you should feel

363
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,640
Speaker 1: that way slightly. Yeah, And if you're the first one

364
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: in your family. There's a lot of guilt around that

365
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: you're the person that got out. I'm from Mississippi. I'm

366
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 1: one of the few people in my family, if not

367
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,120
Speaker 1: the only person at least on my mother's side who's deceased,

368
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: who is doing the things that I'm doing. And there's

369
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,640
Speaker 1: a level of pressure to make sure that I'm looking

370
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: out for my little cousins, that everywhere I go that

371
00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: I'm talking about Mississippi, I'm talking about Marx in Basville

372
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,679
Speaker 1: and crowd of Mississippi and in very affirming ways, because

373
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 1: I know right now I have the mic in the

374
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 1: responsibility that when you have the mic, how you talk

375
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,879
Speaker 1: about your people, how you talk about your experiences. We

376
00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: see that you looked up with Michael Jordan brand, oh yeah,

377
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: and invested in the ovuya and tell us how you

378
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: partnered with him. You know that blew my mind. I

379
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,639
Speaker 1: am I personally think that Michael Jordan is the best

380
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: basketball player to have ever played. You'd be right. I

381
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: think I'll write to y'all agree. Okay, So, when the

382
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: Jordan Brand announced that they would be funding I think

383
00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,439
Speaker 1: thirteen organizations, we put our name in a hat. I

384
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: didn't know what was going to happen. But I knew

385
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: that my team and my team is incredible. I know

386
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 1: that we're sharp, and so Michael Jordan. We found out

387
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,200
Speaker 1: last year that we were one of the thirteen organizations

388
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,399
Speaker 1: in the country that is funded by Michael Jordan. And

389
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 1: what they're doing is they get us money to do

390
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 1: what we do well. They didn't ask us to change

391
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: our programming. Is what you asked me earlier, Like you

392
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,320
Speaker 1: need the money to be able to scale in the

393
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 1: Jordan Foundation, say here's the money. Y'all go ahead and

394
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 1: do what you're doing and make sure you stay true

395
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: to your your core values with some of the next

396
00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:01,120
Speaker 1: business moves you got planned our partner. When you visit Atlanta,

397
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 1: make sure you stop by the Village Retail. But when

398
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 1: you all come right behind Plunt City Market is the

399
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: belt Line and that is that is currently two million

400
00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: people frequent this place. Now because of that, the search

401
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: and commercial rents have gone up. It is almost unaffordable

402
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,399
Speaker 1: to open a business there, especially if you black. I

403
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 1: partner with Atlanta belt Line and the Candida Fund to

404
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 1: open six more black businesses on the belt Line, So

405
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 1: that is putting six businesses in front of two million

406
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 1: annual customers. That that's average is about three hundred and

407
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: fifty thousand people per month that they're going to be

408
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 1: in front of. So we've got the funding the open

409
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: these businesses, to build them out fully, to get the

410
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: new technical assistance support. And when you all visit Atlanta

411
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,919
Speaker 1: hopefully in July, you'll be able to walk on the

412

00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: learn every single aspect about the business, because that business

607
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 1: is extremely difficult. It's you know, a lot of micromanaging.

608
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: You know, the profit margins can be narrow, and you know,

609
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: I just feel like with the restaurant industry, it's so competitive,

610
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 1: it's so many restaurants. I would say, you know, have

611
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 1: a concept, have something that we need, Have something that

612
00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: you know that you can put out there. That's a

613
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 1: little bit different because it's every corner. Every time you

614
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 1: turn around, it's somebody doing it. Every week I look

615
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 1: up and somebody's you know, got a new spot and

616
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 1: doing something new. So at the end of the day,

617
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 1: I'll be honest with people because I'm super transparent, and

618
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: I'm like, listen, if you ain't gonna be whole, wholeheartedly

619
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: into this, don't waste your time at all, not one minute,

620
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: because you will lose a lot of money and a

621
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: lot of time doing this because it's not an easy game.

622
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 1: What made you jump into the restaurant business. It was

623
00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 1: on our vision. Yeah, it's like one of the things

624
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: we had to cross out. I really wanted like a

625
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: twin peaks type of thing and thing kind of sports

626
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 1: barried slash, loungey type of vibe, and I thought that

627
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: it was like more lucrative. I was thinking liquor license

628
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,400
Speaker 1: a lot of money. I was just thinking of the income,

629
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: not knowing the responsibility behind it. So at this point

630
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: when we got into it, we had already brought the building,

631
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,480
Speaker 1: purchased the building behind it, build it out, and once

632
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 1: we got into it, we had so much invested it

633
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: was like no turning back at this point. One other

634
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,520
Speaker 1: thing I would tell people about the restaurant industry is

635
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: when you do get into it and you hire staff,

636
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 1: you got to understand the importance of customer service because

637
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,120
Speaker 1: those people are what people look at your business as

638
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 1: and that right there, if they plan, then people gonna envy.

639
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 1: Restaurant is bull is whack? You know what I'm saying.

640
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: And it's like that's super important. So when you have

641
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 1: a business that depends on other people to be on point,

642
00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 1: you need to make sure that you're training your team properly.

643
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 1: And the first year I would say it was a

644
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: little rough, it's gotten a lot better. People, you know,

645
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: give you praises, and you know you can't please everybody.

646
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, it's something to happen,

647
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: it's something good. But for us too, it was the

648
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 1: real estate. Like they're building one of the largest developments

649
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: in the United States is happening right on the corner.

650
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 1: So it's a It was a real estate play for

651
00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 1: us as well. It just wasn't the business. But we

652
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: always try to put something in the real estate that

653
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: we buy, so we're not spending our own money. How

654
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: do you decide whether it's a lease or to buy. Honestly,

655
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 1: we pretty much buy. We lease in the malls because

656
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: I have the Pressed in the gallery in Houston, and

657
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: then PRESSED in Atlanta and Phipps. So that's a lease

658
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 1: obviously for you have those reasons, you know what I mean.

659
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: But we normally like to purchase. We I have another

660
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: Press location and that is our own standalone building and

661
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: it's on fourteen Street in midtown Atlanta. Everybody pull up,

662
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 1: But um, that building we purchased. And we try to

663
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,279
Speaker 1: do this thing now to where you know, when holidays

664
00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 1: and birthdays and all that stuff come around, we'll do

665
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: less of the well, I won't say cars. That's a

666
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 1: whole other conversation for y'all. But but we try to

667
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 1: purchase like real estate, you know, we normally try to

668
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 1: do that for each other for you know, anniversary's, birthdays

669
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: and a little fun stuff like that. The cars are

670
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:35,479
Speaker 1: winning now nowadays, nothing about you really can I'm gonna

671
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 1: give you that. I'm gonna give you that. I'm gonna

672
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:41,759
Speaker 1: give It's a lot that's up right now. But it's

673
00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,160
Speaker 1: a big difference. I agree and see the differences. You

674
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: could talk about the bags, but you're not going to

675
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 1: get rid of them, so it's not in the views now.

676
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,520
Speaker 1: That's now you're you're very very You're right about that

677
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: because I normally get kind of like classics, so I'd

678
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:58,640
Speaker 1: be like, I ain't selling my bag. I still this is,

679
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: this is, this is for a long and we have

680
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: this discussion all the time. We talk about the cars.

681
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: I mean, like you that he got this is the thing.

682
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: I literally just said the other somebody like coach k

683
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 1: he wanted to grab one. He grabbed my M three

684
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 1: and I got rid of another car and I took

685
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 1: that money and this brought the years. But I got

686
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: rid of two of my cards, right and like when

687
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 1: we was buying the property, I was like, I'm not

688
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: going in my savings. I got rid of another two

689
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: of my cars. That's just like I give him that.

690
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 1: I give him that. I ain't tripping. So the cars

691
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: get you up right now. But when that thing ain't

692
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: go the other direction, and they started never going, and

693
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 1: some of them never either break even or depreciate, I'm

694
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,440
Speaker 1: gonna be in that ass. I think that doesn't let

695
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 1: you know that. What about firing people? How do you

696
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:53,399
Speaker 1: handle that? Thirty yeah one to coach man six figures? Okay, yeah,

697
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 1: it's clearly yeah, it makes sense. Okay, so you can't

698
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,479
Speaker 1: be mad at that car. I'm not I'm not mad

699
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 1: eighty five. I brought it late thousand. I paid fifteen

700
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: thousand from you got early early. They've been trying to

701
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: buy it. I'm gonna let it go soon. But I

702
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: love that car, drive it still. I promised coach if

703
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,920
Speaker 1: I got rid of it, I would let them get it. Now.

704
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:22,400
Speaker 1: How do you fire people? Fire as? Really? Because? What? Okay?

705
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 1: Go ahead? Okay? Most people eliminate theirself. It's usually a

706
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,240
Speaker 1: holiday coming up, or it's hot outside, and they got

707
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: I g and they got an excuse, and they say

708
00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: they was not feeling good. But then they on I partying.

709
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 1: You know, they come with this excuse and we'd be like,

710
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 1: come on now, yeah, but but you know what the

711
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 1: bad thing about being a celebrity or owning the business,

712
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,759
Speaker 1: right you fired somebody, what's the first thing they're gonna say.

713
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 1: They're gonna search the social media? They do she to

714
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:57,319
Speaker 1: fired me because Kirk was looking at me. Oh well,

715
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: we haven't had that one. But what I will say

716
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 1: is like he is very true. A lot of people

717
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 1: eliminate themselves, like we are strictly by the but we

718
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: write you up, three strikes, you out. You know, no call,

719
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 1: no show, it's over with for you. Like it's just

720
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 1: the real deal. And a lot of times, you know,

721
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 1: nobody's really dedicated to the job industry. Right now, you know,

722
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,720
Speaker 1: we're in the Great Resignation. There's eleven point five million

723
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 1: jobs that people walked away from. So it's a it's

724
00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 1: a different ball game now. I would say this Rashida

725
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: is the one that's like them. Then they say she's

726
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: the mean one. I'm the nice he's the nice guy,

727
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,320
Speaker 1: and I'm bad cop. He good cars. So what I

728
00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 1: always do when when somebody's mess it up, I always

729
00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: tell a look they don't did this, this, and this.

730
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 1: I like to try to keep a good face. Car,

731
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:46,000
Speaker 1: So I'd be like, just wait until they do the

732
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,600
Speaker 1: next thing, and then you got all three what I

733
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: tell you. I'd be like, and that's gonna be give

734
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:54,440
Speaker 1: a two weeks, and then it happens and then and

735
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: then you don't have no problems because they know they

736
00:37:56,320 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: messed up. They really set themselves up. And everybody who's

737
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 1: great workers, they're not going nowhere because we take care

738
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: of them like any problems, any even you know, things

739
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: happen if they come to us with an issue. We

740
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 1: try to make sure we can help people and you know,

741
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,480
Speaker 1: just try to let them know where, appreciate them because

742
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 1: it's hard incentives, you know, make sure you know people could.

743
00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: This is what always happens, right with our business. Then

744
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,160
Speaker 1: somebody does get fired and then they try to tell

745
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 1: you everything that everybody else did. Everybody else is doing. Yes,

746
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,440
Speaker 1: everybody's covering for each other because they're hanging out and

747
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,200
Speaker 1: they're friends with each other. Yeah, all right, we still

748
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: got more with Rashida and Kirks don't move. It's the

754
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 1: really see that too much with people actually making it through.

755
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: If you look at some of these shows, how would

00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: you say that you guys just TV. Like any TV

757
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: couple that been going through anything, you don't see them

758
00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,280
Speaker 1: make it. How long you've been married twenty one years? Okay,

759
00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:03,239
Speaker 1: together twenty seven? You and your wife have been through

760
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff. As correct what you're saying, because

761
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:14,359
Speaker 1: to you, Um, I've definitely had my share of messing up.

762
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:17,839
Speaker 1: But you know what, I won't just blame myself. It

763
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 1: was a point in time where we kind of we

764
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,440
Speaker 1: tie to each other, you know, we were thinking where

765
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna go separate. So I mean, I feel like

766
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:28,400
Speaker 1: I've contribute the most that people seeing you know. But

767
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 1: true because the reason I said that, it's on television.

768
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 1: So some things you're able to deal with privately. Yeah,

769
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 1: and it's hardly everybody. Everybody grant Page, somebody got to

770
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 1: listen here, a friend, I think they know you family member,

771
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 1: they think they know you. Yeah, so how do you

772
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: deal with it? You know, it comes to point in

773
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: time where you know, you just got to like tune

774
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff out, and it can be really

775
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 1: really difficult, Like when him and I went through our

776
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,879
Speaker 1: situations and stuff like that, Like I really just had

777
00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: to like shut down, you know, because it's like you know,

778
00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 1: with family, with friends, everybody has an opinion, and at

779
00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: the end of the day, it was between me and

780
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: what God has for me in my life and our relationship.

781
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 1: And I had to realize that. That was one of

782
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,800
Speaker 1: my biggest learning lessons during that time, was just really

783
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 1: understanding who I am and maneuvering and doing what I

784
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,279
Speaker 1: felt like was right because a lot of people try

785
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 1: to steer you in the direction that they want you

786
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,959
Speaker 1: to go in. First of all, a lot of people

787
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: haven't even been in a twenty one year marriage or

788
00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:34,359
Speaker 1: ours will be twenty three, twenty yeah in December, Um,

789
00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 1: so you know, they don't understand the levels of the relationship,

790
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,359
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But you know, it's it's

791
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,520
Speaker 1: difficult just living your life out everybody seeing it. You know,

792
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 1: people they talk about this thing still like it just

793
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 1: happened yesterday. It's been last six years because something that

794
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 1: happened six seven years ago that you dealt with and

795
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:56,440
Speaker 1: then let's say you post a picture on your on

796
00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: your whatever social media never stops, and then you'll be

797
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:07,919
Speaker 1: right right exactly still talk about it. Yeah, he seem

798
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 1: like I ain't messing with it today. You know what

799
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, Actually, yeah, you said first. The

800
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 1: first thing I was gonna say was we can laugh

801
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: about a lot of stuff because there's certain comments that

802
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: we will never forget. Like like maybe about three or

803
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 1: four years ago, we were at this restaurant, Houston's eating

804
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 1: and Kirk had did a video of his brownie um

805
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: that he had for dessert, and the girls was on

806
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 1: there like I hope you choking die that brownie. I

807
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 1: hope that ice cream get you get a brain freeze

808
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:37,319
Speaker 1: and can't thank you no more like the going hey, y'all, Like,

809
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: but we can laugh at it, you know now, But

810
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:44,160
Speaker 1: you know back you like them, you want them to die.

811
00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,000
Speaker 1: When they do that, you end up being more defensive. Yeah,

812
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 1: instead of you being like, yeah, I hope you do

813
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: choke and die, You're like, okay, now, I don't want

814
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: to kill. Those days are like they'll never go away.

815
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,839
Speaker 1: But I will say this, and I hate to just

816
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: be honest about it. Me being and putting my relationship

817
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:09,320
Speaker 1: on broadway, it changed the whole aspect of this relationships period.

818
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: Like I had a lot of guys coming to me

819
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,560
Speaker 1: and be like, yo, you helped me save my marriage.

820
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 1: I went back home, we got back together, and you know,

821
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: we would even be doing Rashida was still performing. We

822
00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 1: would be at shows and it'd be like guys in

823
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:26,760
Speaker 1: Florida with the dreads coming at me and I'm like, oh,

824
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking like what they're like, Yo, they come up

825
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 1: and dap you up, like yo, I love you man.

826
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: You put it out there and it really made me

827
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 1: really understand, like, dang, our relationship really like help a

828
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 1: lot of people. Like it was like other people too,

829
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: you know what I mean being positive business now because

830
00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 1: now yelling business with each other, I'm sure you think

831
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:49,280
Speaker 1: one way, he thinks another way. So who wins in that? Okay?

832
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,840
Speaker 1: So we have always been in business together since the

833
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 1: very beginning of time. That's actually I think we were

834
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: in business before we was even in a relationship. You know,

835
00:42:58,520 --> 00:43:01,680
Speaker 1: Mat you managed the group that actually signed them. Yeah,

836
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: I was actually looking to sign my first group, so

837
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 1: I had signed them as a group first, and time

838
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,440
Speaker 1: came around and somebody had said something about Rashida and

839
00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,919
Speaker 1: something me and then we went up like each other

840
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:18,640
Speaker 1: yea years later and there, yeah here, But I think

841
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 1: we do a pretty good job. Like we have our

842
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 1: days where you know, we're back and forth and we

843
00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:27,919
Speaker 1: tussle because everything that we have is a partnership, all

844
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: of the clothing stores, the restaurants, the music, everything that

845
00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 1: we do. So you know, we have our days, but

846
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 1: we learned over the years that it's like, okay, shut

847
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,799
Speaker 1: it down and let's have us time. You mad about that,

848
00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:42,480
Speaker 1: we'll get over that and let's keep it moving. So

849
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 1: as a couple, how do y'all keep your money? Is

850
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:48,520
Speaker 1: it everything together? Is it one pot? Okay? You go. Wait,

851
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: first of all, how y'all do y'all money? I don't

852
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:56,320
Speaker 1: got that? But you know the reason it is, like

853
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,240
Speaker 1: I said, I've been with gifts since she was fifteen.

854
00:43:58,280 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 1: I was sixteen. She was making more money to me

855
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 1: when we started off, and which has always been one right,

856
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,640
Speaker 1: So can she spend whatever she wants. I can't spend

857
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:09,800
Speaker 1: whatever I want. We have to. Okay, y'all have limitations, right, hey, babe,

858
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: this morning, right, we talked about if she wants to

859
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:16,240
Speaker 1: buy a bag to get Babs bag, Like we have conversations.

860
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:20,920
Speaker 1: Everything in the house still to this. Okay, let's just

861
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:26,439
Speaker 1: latest thing out now. No, let me say, Okay, I'm

862
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: gonna confess, ladies. Do y'all sneak stuff in the house? Okay,

863
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 1: yes we do. Let me tell you why I sometimes

864
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 1: sneak because I have to hear a lecture about bro

865
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: I do fashion for a living, so I'm going to

866
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: go get FINDI Sachi. You think the new release gonna

867
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: come out and I'm not gonna have It's like I said,

868
00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 1: look a certain way because I don't want to hear

869
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 1: it because I look at what she is. She's stylish,

870
00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:51,759
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go to her store because she knows

871
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:56,280
Speaker 1: how to dress and tell mix up fashion. You gotta

872
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: have the hotness a part of her branding. Thank you.

873
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:01,920
Speaker 1: Five thousand dollars six thousand dollars. Shoes could be a

874
00:45:01,960 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 1: couple of thousand dollars. You only wear it books. It's aspirational.

875
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,439
Speaker 1: But why let's say he boughs a car that cars

876
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,520
Speaker 1: twenty thous he could drive that car for years down

877
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,719
Speaker 1: to love. So you spend money on stuff that you

878
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 1: wear once one shot and then it's going. It goes

879
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:15,719
Speaker 1: to the back end closet. You never wear it to

880
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,560
Speaker 1: get you want to get into friends, or you resell it.

881
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: I do Rashida's closet at my stores business, and I'd

882
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,759
Speaker 1: sell it all for a load, but hell type, y'all

883
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 1: gotta keep it a thoulout. Them cars come with the

884
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: insurance that's a rear current bill every month. So that's

885
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:36,320
Speaker 1: a headache because we have fifteen or twenty insurance policies

886
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 1: on cars and you you're one person. You don't drive

887
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 1: half of those cars anyway, So I'm not tripping on that.

888
00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 1: But yes, I have to have my fashion, and that's

889
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: the reason why sometimes I might sneak it in the

890
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:49,759
Speaker 1: house because I don't want to hear your mouth. So

891
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:54,920
Speaker 1: all our businesses have their own account. They aren't checking

892
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,759
Speaker 1: in savings, and all the money that comes in we

893
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:01,879
Speaker 1: equally split down the middle. So when I buy my car,

894
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:03,840
Speaker 1: it's my money. When she buy her clothes, it is

895
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:05,919
Speaker 1: her money. But when we know we're about to buy

896
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,160
Speaker 1: a property, whatever I dislike us to be up on

897
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,799
Speaker 1: each other's level. So I ain't got to put more

898
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: or she ain't got to put more on. But if

899
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:18,879
Speaker 1: my savings is higher than his, he gets anxiety. And yes,

900
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:23,879
Speaker 1: we have our own personal savings, personal check. I just

901
00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 1: can't let her beat me. I don't know why still

902
00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 1: literally gonna sell a car if my savings. No, It's

903
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 1: what I've always thought. People used to say, how does

904
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 1: it feel if the lady because sometimes people think Rashida

905
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 1: is you know, they look at Kirk and think Rashida. No. No,

906
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,839
Speaker 1: I invested my money into Rashida. I don't never talk

907
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,839
Speaker 1: about it because it's all listen, we're a team. It's

908
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:47,800
Speaker 1: I understand she is the brand. Like you can hate

909
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,239
Speaker 1: me and love her. It doesn't matter the money comes

910
00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,719
Speaker 1: into the house. I hate to say it, but you know,

911
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,960
Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, if she's ahead

912
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,120
Speaker 1: of me, I don't like the feeling. So I really

913
00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: feel like the guys that used to talk about the

914
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: woman that had more money. I guess that would have

915
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 1: probably been mening you feel a way. Yeah, I've never

916
00:47:06,280 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: had that happening before. Like, so I don't like it.

917
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:12,040
Speaker 1: So I'll just make sure, I just keep my joint up.

918
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,440
Speaker 1: Movie got more with Rashida and Kirk. When we come back,

919
00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 1: it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ

920
00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 1: Envy and Ngulu Yee Charlomagne the god we are. The

921
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club was still kicking it with Kirk and Rashida.

922
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,360
Speaker 1: Appreciate that. Now. We also saw that you were in

923
00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:31,840
Speaker 1: the hospital and it was a dehydration. So what was

924
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: going on? Girl? Look, I was having a regular day

925
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:37,360
Speaker 1: like this, busy, going on about my business, running around.

926
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 1: So that evening specifically, we had called all of our

927
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 1: kids and was like, hey, let's just meet up and

928
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,240
Speaker 1: have like some dinner together. And all of a sudden,

929
00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 1: all I know is I woke up on the floor.

930
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,799
Speaker 1: We laid out. We were standing and talking to she

931
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,359
Speaker 1: like froze like we were talking and she was like hey.

932
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,240
Speaker 1: We were looking like are you joking? Are you gonna answer?

933
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 1: And then she just was like bite her teeth and

934
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 1: we was like, oh it got real real quick, and

935
00:48:03,239 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 1: then yeah, we laid you down. So anyway, long story short,

936
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:10,160
Speaker 1: they called the ambulance and all that. First of all,

937
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: let me just throw this in the corner real quick.

938
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 1: Everybody's family need to take some type of chorus, because

939
00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:20,439
Speaker 1: when I tell you, any even know what to do. Yo.

940
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,160
Speaker 1: We was looking back at the footage when I tell you,

941
00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 1: folks was going in different directions. My daughters on the

942
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,359
Speaker 1: phone talking to nine one one. She didn't hung up

943
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,080
Speaker 1: on them. You know, they come in if you hang

944
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,360
Speaker 1: up on them. He's saying one thing. My son he tripping.

945
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:36,279
Speaker 1: He's like, where's the keys, We're gonna take it to

946
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 1: the hospital. He didn't have the keys. Keys. Kay had

947
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,000
Speaker 1: the keys in his pocket because I'm like, We're about

948
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 1: to go to the hospital, so I'm looking for my

949
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 1: car keys. My son picked them up, so we all

950
00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,719
Speaker 1: going crazy. Then my oldest son he like, give us

951
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:51,680
Speaker 1: some head, blowing them mouth. I'm like up drinking water

952
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 1: about blowing my mouth. It was. It was a mess, yo,

953
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,040
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna be honest. I hate to say this,

954
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 1: but they were like blowing some trees. So I think

955
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:07,919
Speaker 1: everybody was like just a different world. Yes, So it

956
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 1: was like okay, But on a serious note, it really

957
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 1: was a big eye opener for me for real, because

958
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 1: nothing like that has ever really happened to me before.

959
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 1: And by the time I got to the hospital, and

960
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: they gave me fluids and he was like, what do

961
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:26,720
Speaker 1: you do? You know, what do you do? Are you stressed?

962
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I got like a hell of

963
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:31,400
Speaker 1: businesses and I'm trying to you know, run an empire

964
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:33,080
Speaker 1: and be a mom and a wife and you know,

965
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 1: it's a lot. And I was actually getting ready to

966
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:39,000
Speaker 1: start the Boss Move show and we you know, film

967
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:40,560
Speaker 1: and love and hip hop and it was just a

968
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,440
Speaker 1: lot going on, you know, and he's like, you know,

969
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,920
Speaker 1: you're you're you're really dehydrated, You're stressed out, you know,

970
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:49,680
Speaker 1: And it made me realize how real that is. And

971
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 1: it changed my mindset as far as like making sure

972
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:55,200
Speaker 1: because we're so hands on with everything, it comes a

973
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,000
Speaker 1: point in time where you have to delegate and you

974
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,200
Speaker 1: just have to like sit down. And that's what you know,

975
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 1: took us to making sure we take more time, you know,

976
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 1: to like do stuff and to chill and to take

977
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:10,919
Speaker 1: out that time and just unplug social media, unplug, you know, work,

978
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 1: unplug and just you know, yeah, part of Boss Mools

979
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:15,360
Speaker 1: is taking care of yourself too. It is because you

980
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,320
Speaker 1: can't be a good boss if you, you know, are dehydrated,

981
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:20,919
Speaker 1: if you're exhausted, we're stressed out and all of those things.

982
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:25,240
Speaker 1: That's so true. And I learned she takes a pressure phill. Okay,

983
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,359
Speaker 1: so I got high blood presure and it does. And

984
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 1: but I all we drink is water, we you know,

985
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 1: because we pretty much don't drink juice and sodas and

986
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,319
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So I'm a lot of times we're

987
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:40,359
Speaker 1: thinking we're drinking enough in a lot and we're not.

988
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,640
Speaker 1: So that's another thing that we talk about on Boss

989
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 1: Moves too, as far as even just like the sea moss,

990
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:47,400
Speaker 1: the elderberry and exercising and trying to take care of

991
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:50,320
Speaker 1: ourselves because as African Americans, we got high blood pressure.

992
00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:52,080
Speaker 1: You know, we got a lot of things that we

993
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:54,080
Speaker 1: deal with, you know that we kind of pushed to

994
00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,480
Speaker 1: the side and don't really take serious. But believe me,

995
00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,240
Speaker 1: it can really really affect you. Yeah. Sometimes I forget

996
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 1: to eat because you're working all day, yes, and by

997
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:03,719
Speaker 1: the time it's like seven o'clock and now you're like, damn,

998
00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 1: I didn't even eat anything today because I've been so

999
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:07,560
Speaker 1: busy trying to hit and you have like a stupid

1000
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,040
Speaker 1: migraine or you're starving yourself, and that's not a good

1001
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:12,240
Speaker 1: way to lose nor weight either. Eating at seven o'clock

1002
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,480
Speaker 1: in the evening. Yeah, I mean sounds, but it's so busy,

1003
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,840
Speaker 1: like you'd be like, oh, I had I'm doing that

1004
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 1: and you didn't mean to not eat yeah, and then

1005
00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 1: you realize, dam I didn't even eat anything. Yeah. Sometimes

1006
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:22,480
Speaker 1: I have to choose between if I want to go

1007
00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 1: to sleep or if I want to eat. Okay, well,

00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:32,080
Speaker 1: So we are in the process of getting survey and

1029
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,839
Speaker 1: topo on some land. It took us like seventeen years

1030
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,479
Speaker 1: to get this damn twenty acres that we got. I'm

1031
00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 1: leaning more towards trying to figure out to do a JV,

1032
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 1: which I don't want to build the subdivision ourself. I

1033
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:50,200
Speaker 1: want to get with a developer and he come with

1034
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:54,640
Speaker 1: the joints. We got the land and let's make this bad.

1035
00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:58,200
Speaker 1: So that's one of our newer ventures. It's just trying

1036
00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 1: to figure out, you know, exactly what we were just

1037
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 1: the right. But I was looking at the big check.

1038
00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 1: The big check is the developing. Absolutely, if you're on

1039
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,359
Speaker 1: the building and they got to pay you tenants, if

1040
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,319
Speaker 1: you do tendant to, if you sell the divisions either

1041
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 1: either or because we got a spot in Jersey that's nine,

1042
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,520
Speaker 1: it's ninety units, and we got a seventy unit one

1043
00:53:16,600 --> 00:53:20,960
Speaker 1: and they do well. Really yeah, that's good money. See yeah,

1044
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:22,400
Speaker 1: really well. But it's just, you know, it's a lot

1045
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 1: of headaches. You gotta have a property manager somebody. Yeah.

1046
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 1: I have three properties in Brooklyn. I just don't want

00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 1: This man, Uncle Luke, had us screaming the color of

1156
00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:20,800
Speaker 1: thesis for no damn reason, Okay, proudly screaming out what

00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:35,040

1162
00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:37,240
Speaker 1: the legend named Luther Campbell. And that's why we are

1163
00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:41,280

1165
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,880

1166
00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 1: her dog in Miami's Edgewater neighborhood. She was picking up

1167
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,480
Speaker 1: her dog's poop when William Carroll pulled up with a knife.

1168
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 1: No need to listen to me because I need to

1169
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,560
Speaker 1: catch my breath anyway. Okay, let's go to NBC six

1170

Speaker 1: South order for the report. Please. What's supposed to be

1171

1172
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 1: Police say a woman was attacked and robbed on her

1173
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,400
Speaker 1: way back home after walking her dog. She stopped on

1174
01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:11,440
Speaker 1: the stairs to her condo to pick up the dog's

1175
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,120
Speaker 1: waist when a man allegedly came from behind with a

1176
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 1: knife and strangled her, then allegedly stole her backpack and wallet.

1177
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 1: Police caught Carol a few blocks away, out of breath,

1178
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 1: and they say with the victim's credit cards nearby. He

1179
01:00:24,360 --> 01:00:27,200
Speaker 1: told detectives he didn't do it, but police say he

1180
01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:30,080
Speaker 1: didn't realize he was wearing one of the biggest pieces

1181
01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:33,640
Speaker 1: of evidence, which came from the dog. Literally, the police

1182
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:37,080
Speaker 1: report states a brownish stain was seen on the defended shirt,

1183
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:42,120
Speaker 1: matching the dog poop from the scene. William Carroll is

1184
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 1: in jail because number one, he's a robber, with number

1185
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:48,160
Speaker 1: two because of doodoo. All right, this woman had to

1186
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 1: wear with dollar maybe you know, just in her fighting

1187
01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:54,520
Speaker 1: a little, she got enough doodoo on him for cops

1188
01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:56,920
Speaker 1: to notice he had a dog poop stain on his shirt.

1189
01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:59,080
Speaker 1: First of all, you're not just about to blend in

1190
01:00:59,080 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 1: when you got dudo one, Okay, even if the clothes

1191
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:04,480
Speaker 1: you're wearing are indeed a doodoo brown color, the smell,

1192
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:08,480
Speaker 1: my gee. Okay, the older we've all had dog poop

1193
01:01:08,520 --> 01:01:11,160
Speaker 1: on our shoe at some point in life. You can't

1194
01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:14,880
Speaker 1: escape that funky ass fragrance. All right. Think about the

1195
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:18,240
Speaker 1: time you had to take a cleaning doodoo off your

1196
01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:20,720
Speaker 1: shoes in life. So imagine walking around with it on

1197
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,920
Speaker 1: your shirt. You throw the whole shirt away. Clearly, William

1198
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:26,760
Speaker 1: sixty two years old robbing folks at knife point couldn't

1199
01:01:26,800 --> 01:01:28,720
Speaker 1: afford to throw his shirt away, but the fact you

1200
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,160
Speaker 1: just decided to go to the Cultural Institution knowing his

1201
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 1: pizza Hut with Doodoo on your shirt. Sir, respect yourself,

1202
01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:39,400
Speaker 1: but also respect the home of the Bucket program. You

1203
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:41,920
Speaker 1: can't just walk up in pizza hut with Doodoo on

1204
01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 1: your shirt and get you a personal pampie and keep

1205
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: it moving. And furthermore, how stink are you on a

1206
01:01:48,760 --> 01:01:52,720

1253
01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:07,680

1254
01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 1: that sacred, but I mean I think you know what

1256
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,640

1257
01:05:14,680 --> 01:05:17,800
Speaker 1: for you guys to even become the host? Um? We actually,

1258
01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:20,720
Speaker 1: you know, it's crazy because I was actually advocating for

1259
01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:23,120
Speaker 1: the joint to come back forever. I can't mentioned yo, yo, yo,

1260
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:25,200
Speaker 1: gotta come back and gotta come back. They're like yeah, yeah,

1261
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:27,240
Speaker 1: yeah yeah. And then when he finally hit me, yo,

1262
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:29,919
Speaker 1: we're bringing it back and we want us the host.

1263
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:32,400
Speaker 1: That's just how they hit me. And then to get

1264
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 1: her I had to do like a zoom meeting with

1265
01:05:34,480 --> 01:05:36,760
Speaker 1: like a whole bunch of DJs. But in the chemistry

1266
01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:38,920
Speaker 1: that me and me and her head were just crazy

1267
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:41,000
Speaker 1: and they said, Yo, we want to see nobody else.

1268
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,720
Speaker 1: This is it. Did y'all know each other before? No,

1269
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,440
Speaker 1: the first time was meeting on Zoom. Yeah, that was

1272
01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:55,600
Speaker 1: I didn't remember when we was in the car and

Speaker 1: I was like, yo, that's Yosteno will even the set,

1281
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if they did to like you know

1282
01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:31,960
Speaker 1: what I mean, the like the higher ups, but to us, no,

1283
01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:35,000
Speaker 1: at least not yet. But hopefully we do them some

1284
01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 1: some justice, I mean, and hopefully. Yeah, what are some

1285
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,200
Speaker 1: things from the original that y'all are bringing back? Yeah,

1286
01:06:43,320 --> 01:06:45,560
Speaker 1: so we have the we have the love of performances,

1287
01:06:45,880 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 1: so we have that, and we have ciphers and of

1288
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:49,880
Speaker 1: course you know, we have you know, just like to

1289
01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:52,480
Speaker 1: sit down talking just like we're doing now, so you know,

1290
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:55,040
Speaker 1: it's still gonna be that same vibe, but just you know,

1291
01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:57,240
Speaker 1: just like a new wage twist on it. And were

1292
01:06:57,240 --> 01:06:59,280
Speaker 1: shown a lot of love to up and coming artists

1293
01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:02,520
Speaker 1: as well. What is coaching nowadays? Because when I think

1294
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:04,280
Speaker 1: about you MTV Rapps, I think about like that was

1295
01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:06,000
Speaker 1: a show that you used to go to to see

1296
01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:08,640
Speaker 1: the culture. But it's like, what is the culture now?

1297
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:12,680
Speaker 1: That's a good question. So the culture that is, I

1298
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:14,400
Speaker 1: would say it's mixed. I mean, because you have the

1299
01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:17,720
Speaker 1: interview that you have Instagram rappers, right, and that's or

1300
01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:19,920
Speaker 1: like SoundCloud rappers, but then you have you know, the

1301
01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:22,439
Speaker 1: main artist. So I think it's just like a melting pop.

1302
01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:26,000
Speaker 1: But you have real gangsters now, I mean you have

1303
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:29,439
Speaker 1: real gangster, you have real you have snitches, you have

1304
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:32,040
Speaker 1: you have everything. I mean. So I think the culture

1305
01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:35,480
Speaker 1: just I mean basically just became to whatever you like,

1306
01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,400
Speaker 1: whatever you wanted to be. Yeah. Wow, I feel I

1307
01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:41,840
Speaker 1: feel like rappers just the culture is evolving and we're

1308
01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 1: just evolving with it, you know what I mean. And

1309
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:47,040
Speaker 1: I think with the show, it's cool because we're adding

1310
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:50,720
Speaker 1: a new twist to a legendary, you know, a legendary

1311
01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:54,520
Speaker 1: show with new artists and a new look. And like

1312
01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 1: I said, when I watched it, some of the performances,

1313
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:59,600
Speaker 1: I felt like I was watching an award show. Honestly,

1314
01:07:59,720 --> 01:08:01,560
Speaker 1: this is the way the production was. So it's just

1315
01:08:01,640 --> 01:08:04,840
Speaker 1: like a new twist on something that was definitely legendary

1316
01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:06,960
Speaker 1: and still is legendary to the day. So it feels

1317
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,439
Speaker 1: like the music is five percent of the culture now.

1318
01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:11,560
Speaker 1: It's like every day we wake up, we're talking about

1319
01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:14,720
Speaker 1: things that don't have nothing to do with going to

1320
01:08:15,360 --> 01:08:18,360
Speaker 1: going to jail and yeah, fighting and now, mon't get

1321
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 1: me wrong, it's artists that are doing it. Yeah, we're

1322
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:22,519
Speaker 1: not talking about their music. Yeah, we're just talking about

1323
01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:25,679
Speaker 1: their lifestyle. Yeah. Things you straight away from talking about

1324
01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 1: sometimes like you're like, Okay, this person's beeping with this

1325
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:30,200
Speaker 1: person or this happened, and you're like, you know, way,

1326
01:08:30,200 --> 01:08:31,519
Speaker 1: I don't want to feed into that. Or do you

1327
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 1: feel like I'm a report on it because people are

1328
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,639
Speaker 1: talking about it. Well, me personally, I would stay away

1329
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 1: from it. I mean, because that's something we really do

1330
01:08:38,880 --> 01:08:41,280
Speaker 1: not need. I mean, and that's just like stirring the pot.

1331
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 1: We're not we're done, but they're gonna talk about it.

1332
01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about it. I mean if if if

1333
01:08:46,800 --> 01:08:48,680
Speaker 1: if if the artists won't want to say it, I mean,

1334
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:50,080
Speaker 1: if you feel free. But I don't want to be

1335
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:51,760
Speaker 1: the one to like, I mean, poking the bed and

1336
01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:54,080
Speaker 1: I mean somebody to get get hurt. And we're already

1337
01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:57,320
Speaker 1: losing way. Weigh up too many people, so you need

1338
01:08:57,439 --> 01:08:59,719
Speaker 1: none of that. Yeah, it was on the first episode.

1339
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:03,439
Speaker 1: The first episode is Freddie Gibs shout out to Gary, Indiana.

1340
01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:08,040
Speaker 1: Freddie Gibs, he just got he's always in some gonna

1341
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 1: be honest, I mean so, but I really liked Freddie

1342
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:16,000
Speaker 1: Gibbs as a person. I don't know what how this happens.

1343
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:17,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, he's so cool. Why does this keep

1344
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,040
Speaker 1: not his thing? When you watch it, you can see

1345
01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:24,880
Speaker 1: what happens. He talks anything, anything, He does not care.

1346
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:27,679
Speaker 1: You mentioned it was like yo and just go crazy.

01:09:29,400 --> 01:09:33,840
Speaker 1: it in the first episode? I say it, they got

1349
01:09:34,520 --> 01:09:36,639
Speaker 1: all right, so they gotta watch it. He definitely definitely

Speaker 1: I feel bad and even saying David, I know it's

1469
01:15:29,080 --> 01:15:31,120
Speaker 1: David something. I don't know his last name, but he

01:21:51,640 --> 01:21:54,519
Speaker 1: Expo is the first and only event of its kind

1585
01:21:54,640 --> 01:22:00,479
Speaker 1: that centers Duela's caregivers, families and lifting up up policy

Speaker 1: changes and ships that we can make to have like

01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:05,760
Speaker 1: better maternal health outcomes. But it's also a festival, so

1588

Speaker 1: there's live music. There's a lot of brands activating in

1590
01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:15,040
Speaker 1: there's food. It's just a place for a community to

1591
01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:17,240
Speaker 1: come together. And we're really excited because we have a

1592
01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:19,559
Speaker 1: lot of support from local officials. We have the Brooklyn

1593
01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:22,280
Speaker 1: Borough President, Antonio Ray Knows, So who's going to come

1594
01:22:22,320 --> 01:22:24,960
Speaker 1: and do some opening remarks, and he's leading up the

1595
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:27,400
Speaker 1: maternal health task for us, and so he's really also

1596
01:22:27,439 --> 01:22:30,320
Speaker 1: committed to improve maternal health and making Brooklyn the safest

1597
01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:33,120
Speaker 1: place to give birth in New York. So we're happy

1598
01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:35,400
Speaker 1: to have him. And we have the public Advocate Money

1599
01:22:35,439 --> 01:22:38,200
Speaker 1: Williams will be there to making some remarks. You'll be there,

1600
01:22:38,439 --> 01:22:41,360
Speaker 1: I will be there. I'm in conversation, Well, what's the

1601
01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:44,880
Speaker 1: brother out, Charles John, Paul John. Yeah, which we're excited

1602
01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:47,560
Speaker 1: about because you know, I think it's so important to

1603
01:22:47,760 --> 01:22:50,519
Speaker 1: center fathers in this conversation. You know, a lot of us,

1604
01:22:50,680 --> 01:22:53,599
Speaker 1: you know, including myself, are in a position to sort

1605
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:55,800
Speaker 1: of speak from the lens of being a woman and

1606
01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:58,600
Speaker 1: being impacted, you know, and having family members impacted and

1607
01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:02,439
Speaker 1: obviously friends by the maternal health crisis. But you know,

1608
01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:04,880
Speaker 1: we never really get to hear fathers in a certain light,

1609
01:23:04,960 --> 01:23:07,479
Speaker 1: and so I'm really interested for this conversation that y'all

1610
01:23:07,640 --> 01:23:10,760
Speaker 1: have that can not only shed light on the lens

1611
01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:13,719
Speaker 1: of fatherhood, but also sort of you know, what fathers

1612
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:15,960
Speaker 1: are doing, and specifically what Charles has done in terms

1613
01:23:16,000 --> 01:23:19,720
Speaker 1: of impacting on legislation to improve maternal health. Yeah. I

1614
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:21,880
Speaker 1: first heard of Charles story. I think I was watching

1615
01:23:22,360 --> 01:23:24,040
Speaker 1: I think it was on CN if I'm not mistaken,

1616
01:23:24,040 --> 01:23:25,760
Speaker 1: they did a story on him because sadly he lost

1617
01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:30,440
Speaker 1: his wife during during childbirth. Yeah, and it was unfortunate

1618
01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:33,639
Speaker 1: because they were inside the hospital and she was let

1619
01:23:33,800 --> 01:23:37,040
Speaker 1: to bleed for ten hours internally after routine C section.

1620
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:41,320
Speaker 1: And so he's now in a civil rights lawsuit with

1621
01:23:41,439 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 1: Cedar Sinai, which is a huge deal because the lawsuit

1622
01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:49,439
Speaker 1: is actually directed towards medical racism. So it'll be it'll

1623
01:23:49,439 --> 01:23:51,240
Speaker 1: set a precedence, you know, if he's able to win

1624
01:23:51,320 --> 01:23:53,640
Speaker 1: this case. Wow, I want to ask you, I know

1625
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 1: your piano you pay promoting this, But when you've seen

1626
01:23:56,200 --> 01:24:01,000
Speaker 1: all of the mass hysteria about the shortage of formula, Yeah,

1627
01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:05,240
Speaker 1: so it's really interesting. I saw something that said that

1628
01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:10,040
Speaker 1: people were gauging folks on um on like eBay selling

1629
01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:12,840
Speaker 1: formula for like three hundred dollars. Serious, yeah, and so

1630
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:15,880
Speaker 1: it's interesting at the um Doula EXFO. We actually have

1631
01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:19,760
Speaker 1: a company called Bobby, which is a formula company that

1632
01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:24,200
Speaker 1: does a European style formula UM which is important because

1633
01:24:24,280 --> 01:24:27,800
Speaker 1: American formula is actually like not regulating in the way

1634
01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:30,880
Speaker 1: that your regulates theirs, and so they have better safety.

1635
01:24:31,840 --> 01:24:34,720
Speaker 1: It's called Bobby b O b B I. E Yes,

1636
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:36,040
Speaker 1: I heard you know what we you know, we have

1637
01:24:36,680 --> 01:24:39,680
Speaker 1: a five month old and somebody was telling us about it,

1638
01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:41,800
Speaker 1: and they were saying that over there, the formulas are

1639
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:44,400
Speaker 1: a lot better. Yeah, like they're regulated, they're richer and

1640
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:47,760
Speaker 1: ingredients there. Yes, and so to happen, lots of people

1641
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:51,280
Speaker 1: ship them, right, and so Bobby being American made made

1642
01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:54,600
Speaker 1: by moms, you know people and also scientists, obviously we

1643
01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:56,240
Speaker 1: got to get you some you know, if you guys

1644
01:24:56,320 --> 01:24:59,559
Speaker 1: were needing formula, because um, they're just committed and their

1645
01:24:59,600 --> 01:25:03,280
Speaker 1: whole thing is, you know, creating a product, but understanding

1646
01:25:03,400 --> 01:25:06,160
Speaker 1: that you know, breast milk is obviously the gold standard

1647
01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:08,759
Speaker 1: for infant nutrition, right, we know that, but not everybody

1648
01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:11,920
Speaker 1: gets to breastfeed, and about three quarters of women end

1649
01:25:12,000 --> 01:25:15,200
Speaker 1: up using formula at some point. So it's important to

1650
01:25:15,280 --> 01:25:17,639
Speaker 1: have an option that makes sense for people. So I'm

1651
01:25:17,720 --> 01:25:21,320
Speaker 1: all four people having access um. Bobby's amazing. They donated

1652
01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:23,960
Speaker 1: a thousand cans of formula to the Mamola Foundation for

1653
01:25:24,080 --> 01:25:26,240
Speaker 1: us to make sure that people have access to formula,

1654
01:25:26,640 --> 01:25:29,000
Speaker 1: so we're really happy to be partner with them. We'll

1655
01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:31,760
Speaker 1: have a conversation actually about this crisis what it means

1656
01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:34,599
Speaker 1: for people at the DULA Expo two and if people

1657
01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:36,840
Speaker 1: can't come, they can they can live stream it also,

1658
01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,400
Speaker 1: we have it on the Mamola Facebook will be live

1659
01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:42,680
Speaker 1: streaming Saturday's events as well. But I'm glad y'all having

1660
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:45,280
Speaker 1: that conversation because I saw the argument this week and

1661
01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:46,639
Speaker 1: I was like, why does everything have to turn into

1662
01:25:46,640 --> 01:25:49,559
Speaker 1: an argument online? But it's like because I think somebody said,

1663
01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:51,599
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't forget who it was, Bett Miller,

1664
01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:53,919
Speaker 1: and she just basically was like, y'all should be breastfeeding.

1665
01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:57,519
Speaker 1: Breastfeeding in anyway. Yeah, I mean, I think it's it's

1666
01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:01,200
Speaker 1: interesting because we all know that that's the that's the

1667
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:03,599
Speaker 1: best way to feed our babies. We understand that, right,

1668
01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:06,639
Speaker 1: like you have to create this birth village around yourself,

1669
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 1: but not everybody has access to that. So yes, it's

1670
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:13,479
Speaker 1: it's it's cheap, it's free, it's the right temperature. When

1671
01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:15,519
Speaker 1: you do the breast and milk right, it comes out

1672
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:17,120
Speaker 1: the temperature it needs to be. It has all the

1673
01:26:17,200 --> 01:26:20,479
Speaker 1: nutrients of baby needs, and we advocate for that, but

1674
01:26:20,640 --> 01:26:23,000
Speaker 1: we have to also understand there are social factors and

1675
01:26:23,040 --> 01:26:25,320
Speaker 1: also a health factors some people have. You know. One

1676
01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:27,280
Speaker 1: of the things that I love about Bobby for instances,

1677
01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:31,200
Speaker 1: they actually donate formula to women who have had mastectomies

1678
01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:33,599
Speaker 1: who haven't been able to breastfeed because of cancer. Right,

1679
01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 1: and so you know there's reasons for why people can't

1680
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:39,880
Speaker 1: do it. And instead of judging, because it's really not

1681
01:26:39,960 --> 01:26:41,960
Speaker 1: the time to judge, babies need to be fed. So

1682
01:26:42,120 --> 01:26:44,320
Speaker 1: the goal is to make sure babies are fed. Absolutely.

1683
01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:46,280
Speaker 1: That's why you got to go to the Dulex photomon

1684
01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:50,800
Speaker 1: information again and how they could if they can't make

1685
01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:53,280
Speaker 1: it out, they could live stream. Yeah. So UM you
