00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 5: I'm kind of surprised by this.

182
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 4: Eminem is no joke.

183
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 5: He's going nowhere and he's not even put an album

184
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 5: out in forever.

185
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,679

194
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 4: So those are the three women on the list.

195
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 5: Gosh, I'm eminem Is. That's amazing to me. All right, all.

196
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 3: Right now, people are very angry about be Simone. She's trending,

197
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 3: and that is all because of her latest post about

198
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 3: subscribing to her close friends. She posted, if you're not

199
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 3: on my close friends, you're not going to see much

200
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 3: of my life during this time. Close friends, I love you,

201
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 3: Thank you for being a safe space, and then there's

202
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 3: a link joined my close friends. Now people are very

203
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 3: upset because they feel like she's offering subscriptions to see

204
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 3: her life after the passing of her good friend Jackie O.

205
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 3: Now I saw some of the people responding Bisimona's asking

206
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 3: for people to pay for access to her close friends

207
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 3: as she grieves her friend JACKIEO. How could you ever

208
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 3: bring yourself to use your friend's passing as a means

209
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 3: to get people to pay for your close friends is insanity.

210
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 4: This is beyond low and disgusting.

211
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 5: What do you think, Angela?

212
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 3: Now I'll read somebody in her defense and somebody said,

213
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 3: y'all are really some goofies. B simone been promoting her

214
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 3: close friends is paid subscription, not because Jackie has passed.

215
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 3: Y'all should cancel yourself first, you dumb f's okay, all right?

216
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 4: Now?

217
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 3: My thing is this, Yes, she has always done this

218
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:00,840
Speaker 3: with close friends.

219
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 4: This was terrible, poor.

220
00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 3: Timing absolutely to post something like this, And I can't

221
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 3: say what her intentions were or where her heart is

222
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 3: at on this. It just seemed like a terrible idea.

223
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think you're right.

224
00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,880
Speaker 3: I agree with you, cause she did not specifically say

225
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 3: if you want to see me mourning my my friend.

226
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 5: Now she didn't. But yeah, you're right, it was just

227
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 5: poor timing because she does promote this close friends thing

228
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 5: a lot.

229
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,080
Speaker 3: Right I think, and you know she's saying, you're not

230
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 3: going to see much of my life during this time,

231
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 3: close friends. I love you, Thank you for being a

232
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 3: safe space. That was, you know, because she's it seems

233
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 3: like she's going through something right now. I think she is,

234
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 3: So that's why I feel like it was an inappropriate post.

235
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 3: I think she could have just said thank you to

236
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 3: my close friends, I love you for being a safe space,

237
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 3: left it at that, or if you want to post

238
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 3: a link to join my close friends, just do.

239
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 5: That, or just don't post. Don't do that right now. Yeah,

240
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 5: it just was poor poor time. Timing was awful.

241
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, and people were definitely dragging her all right now.

242
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 3: Hollywood and TV writers have been on strike for the

243
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: past month, and actors have now signal that they're willing

244
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 3: to join those picket lines because they have their own battles,

245
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 3: and this is something I think that was anticipated that

246
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 3: was going to happen on Monday. Members of SAG after

247
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 3: that represents film and TV actors. I'm a part of

248
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 3: SAG after because we actually had to join the union

249
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,359
Speaker 3: in order to be a full time.

250
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:18,680
Speaker 4: Employee here at iHeart.

251
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 3: They voted to authorize a strike if they don't reach

252
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 3: a deal with major entertainment company studios by June thirtieth,

253
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 3: and nearly ninety eight percent of voting members were in

254
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 3: favor of that strike. So we know this writer strike

255
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 3: has been going on. It's been affecting a lot of

256
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 3: different shows that you might love, it's been affecting award shows. Yeah,

257
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 3: it definitely has right, So this is going to be

258
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 3: even doubly crippling if actors become involved for the entertainment industry. So,

259
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 3: actors are seeking higher pay and light of lower residual

260
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: payments for streaming content, same thing writers are looking for, right,

261
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 3: because there's all these streaming services that's been there's no

262
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 3: precedent for that prior to this, so it's not like

263
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 3: you're getting the money from the reruns and syndication and

264
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,479
Speaker 3: all of that. Right, they went more generous studio contributions

265
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 3: to their benefit plans. And the union is also seeking

266
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 3: limits on self taped auditions for actors. They said that's

267
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 3: become a massive daily uncompensated burden on the lives of performers.

268
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 5: Now, I thought that was interesting, the whole you know,

269
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 5: the self taping and how it's kind of a bit

270
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 5: much for them.

271
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I didn't know you got paid to go on auditions.

272
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 3: I would think that taping your audition and setting it

273
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 3: in would actually be easier.

274
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 5: I would think so too, But it's something we don't

275
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 5: know because we're not in this world.

276
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,840
Speaker 3: All right, So that is we'll keep you guys updated

277
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 3: June thirty.

278
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, with that by June thirtieth.

279
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, that is your YEETI And when we

280
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 3: come back, we have about last night where we'll be

281
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 3: discussing what way down last night. It's way up with

282
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 3: Angela yee. I love hearing about your dating life night.

283
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:54,599
Speaker 2: So about last night last night? Last night, Za, I

284
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 2: went down?

285
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 3: All right, it's way up at Angela yee. I'm Angela Yee.

286
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 3: Jasmine from the Jasmine.

287
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 5: Brand here, good morning, Angela.

288
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,960
Speaker 4: I feel like these are Jasmine's dating chronicles.

289
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, really are.

290
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 13: So.

291
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 4: I wanted to talk about something that.

292
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 3: Just has to do it last night and it's this

293
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 3: is not completely what happened last night, but imagine imagine

294
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 3: for the guys, because the guys in the room reacted

295
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 3: very strongly, strongly when I talked about this. But when

296
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 3: you go out with somebody as a woman, I feel

297
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 3: like when I ever I got with somebody, early on,

298
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 3: I try to bring like a couple of my friends

299
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 3: with me or make it more like a not a date,

300
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 3: but going out like a like a hey, come, yeah,

301
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 3: let's go have a drink or let's grab something to eat,

302
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 3: so it doesn't feel like in case I don't like you,

303
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 3: or in case I don't feel like, it's quote unquote safe.

304
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 4: It's not a lot of.

305
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,200
Speaker 3: Pressure, it's less pressure right to do that. But apparently

306
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 3: guys hate that.

307
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 6: Yeah.

308
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, the guys in the room hated it. They were like,

309
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 5: that's an awful idea.

310
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I feel like I always do that.

311
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 5: You are that kind you were that you're that girl

312
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 5: to bring your friends.

313
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, but not And you know, after I feel comfortable,

314
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 3: then I'm okay with a one on one situation, But

315
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 3: I'm not always comfortable one on one. Initially, it initially

316
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: feels safer, right, But according to Dan, he said, well,

317
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 3: how do you get to know somebody? Because for guys,

318
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 3: we don't like that because we're trying to get to

319
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,439
Speaker 3: know you and be alone like when I'm want and

320
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 3: have those conversations. But I also feel like you can

321
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 3: learn a lot about a person by seeing what they're

322
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 3: like around their friends.

323
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 5: Yeah you can. Yeah, you definitely can. Yeah, you definitely can.

324
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 5: What do you think I don't really bring I mean, well,

325
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 5: let's say last night, it was you were there on

326
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 5: my day, So let's be clear.

327
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 4: You were there, I was there.

328
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 5: This is not the first time you've been there on

329
00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:49,800
Speaker 5: a date. And I've gone out with you and you

330
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 5: know you're god and dates, you know, so I don't

331
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 5: I guess I was gonna say I didn't really I'm

332
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 5: not a fan of it, but apparently I am. But

333
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 5: apparently you were like I'm like, hey girl, which I'll do.

334
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 4: Gotta come good on.

335
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think that any guy has to like

336
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 3: have grace for that because I don't expect him to

337
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,559
Speaker 3: pay for me. I don't want, you know, I don't

338
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 3: expect you guy to pay for me and nothing like that.

339
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 3: I can handle it myself, because I think that's rude.

340
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 3: I don't expect if I'm out with a guy, and

341
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 3: I know some people do you gotta pay for me

342
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 3: and my friends? No, I don't think if I invite somebody,

343
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:19,800
Speaker 3: I don't look at it as a date.

344
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 4: I look at it as more we're just hanging out.

345
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 5: Yeah. And what I also feel like is, especially you know,

346
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 5: if it's someone that you kind of like, they're gonna

347
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 5: have to be around you sometimes anyway, Angela, you know

348
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 5: what I'm saying, and vice versa, anyone that you're with

349
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 5: that's gonna have to be around me sometimes. Right, So

350
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 5: it's like you might as well, what if you don't

351
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 5: like them? If oh I don't like your guy, yeah,

352
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 5: it doesn't matter.

353
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 4: I'm still gonna you gotta go.

354
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

355
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 3: No, it's just like I wonder if he doesn't like you, Jazmine,

356
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 3: gotta go, I'd be like, well, sorry, Jasmine.

357
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 5: Here's the thing. The guy is gonna fake like he

358
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 5: likes your homegirl anyway, and vice versa.

359
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,240
Speaker 3: Sometimes it's hard to though, sometimes it is hard to. Yeah,

360
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,479
Speaker 3: don't call my friends at bozo, don't call my friends.

361
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 5: A clown, don't call my friends a bug out.

362
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't call my friends no names and would be okay, right?

363
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 4: That is important to me. Some people are like I

364
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,360
Speaker 4: don't care if my friends like you.

365
00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 5: I like my friends to like the guy because he's

366
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,600
Speaker 5: not around, but not too much. Yeah that's not like yeah.

367
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 3: Because I definitely have friends like hit up the guy

368
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 3: that I was dating behind my back, and I'm not

369
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 3: friends with people like that anymore.

370
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 4: So you had to let that go.

371
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 5: I don't like that.

372
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 3: All right, Well that is about last night. Now you

Speaker 3: For some people, this is their absolute favorite part of

376
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 3: the show. I got this idea from reading Cosmopolitan magazine

377
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 3: where they would have the confessions, and so people would

378
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 3: confess things and I'd be like, oh my gosh, but

379
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 3: these tend to be a little juicier.

380
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 5: They are you have some really interesting callers.

381
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 3: Yes, And you know what, we always post these on

382
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 3: social media, and then I see some idiots in the

383
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 3: comments like this is all you talk about?

410
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 14: Okay. So when I was in college, I got with

411
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 14: one of my close friends by friends two times in

412
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 14: twenty four hours.

413
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 4: Oh did she ever find out?

414
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 14: At the night time? And another time in three Yeah,

415
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 14: she did find out. Because I'm not gonna lie. I'm

416
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 14: a truth teller and I can't really lie for a

417
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,080
Speaker 14: long time. So I wrote her a letter and told

418
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 14: her every little thing that happened, and I gave it

419
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 14: to her and she kind of shared it with her friends.

420
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 14: And I seen somebody else holding the letter one time,

421
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 14: and I was like, my dirty laundret.

422
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 3: Wow, Well what happened after that? But y'all not friends anymore?

423
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,639
Speaker 14: No, But it originally started because she just was spreading

424
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 14: her rumor trying to make it seem like I was

425
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 14: a bad person when I was in kind of like

426
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,159
Speaker 14: a messed up plate. And her boyfriend was actually pretty

427
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 14: close to me. We were pretty we were better friends

428
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 14: than me and she her was. But I was angry

429
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,080
Speaker 14: and wanted to prove a point. So I went off

430
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 14: and did my own game.

431
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 5: And I don't regret it, Okay, you don't.

432
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,120
Speaker 14: It's a lesson learned every single thing that happened, Especially

433
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 14: when you do something so toxic, it makes you realize

434
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 14: where you went wrong and where you go wrong multiple times,

435
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 14: and a lot to situation like, it just shows you things.

436
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 4: Now, what happened to the guy?

437
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 14: Oh my? So we ended up not being friends because

438
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 14: I realized he started acting funny. But he tell me why.

439
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,920
Speaker 14: He every single year at some time of the year.

440
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 14: He's always in my views, like always in my views,

441
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 14: and I don't even have it like a friend. But

00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 14: I'm like, yep, I know it was that good and

00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 3: was this close to having a jay Z collaboration.

633
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 4: Imagine that they hit me.

634
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,239
Speaker 15: It was like your whole got an idea that of

635
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 15: a song that he wanted to do with you. And

636
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 15: I went out there and I stayed my right. I

637
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,439
Speaker 15: went out there and I stayed for three days waiting

638
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,360
Speaker 15: on a phone call. And then when I the day

639
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 15: that I linked up with him, I'm just kicking it Withding,

640
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 15: we having drinks it.

641
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 2: He didn't mention the song, so I brought it up.

642
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 2: I'm like, yo, he said, you had an idea of it.

643
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 2: He was like, oh yeah, this.

644
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 15: Is what I wanted to tell you. And as soon

645
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 15: as he said that, somebody's like, yo, we need you,

646
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 15: and they called him over here and he left and

647
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:40,360
Speaker 15: we never got brought up again. It's like two three

648
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:40,920
Speaker 15: years ago.

649
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:44,440
Speaker 6: Man, I'd be tight bad luck.

650
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:45,479
Speaker 5: He got bad luck. Yo.

651
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 4: Remember this song?

652
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 6: Ida brought it up?

653
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 4: Were supposed to do. This is bringing it up again.

654
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 5: Though, Oh you're right, yeah right.

655
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 3: Somebody from that team is probably like, oh, you know,

656
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 3: Benny the butcher was just talking about you and he's

657
00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 3: still waiting up.

658
00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,200
Speaker 4: Okay, it can happen.

659
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 3: Chris Rock had called the cops a man tried to

660
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 3: film him. He said from his fire escape, there was

661
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 3: a peeping time with the camera right outside his window.

662
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 4: That's what he told the cops.

663
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 3: He was reporting that it was outside his New York

664
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 3: City home, and soho in Manhattan. I actually saw Chris

665
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 3: Rock one day in Soho walking down the block randomly.

666
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 5: Really mm hmm.

667
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 3: I was at the store, Alison Olivia. He called nine

668
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 3: one one on Sunday night. NYPD raced over, but they

669
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 3: said when they got there, the suspect was nowhere to

670
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 3: be found. They said he fled after Chris Rock spotted him,

671
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 3: and he hopped into a white Mercedes and got away.

672
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,000
Speaker 4: So don't know what was going on. Imagine that that's

673
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 4: a violation.

674
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:35,920
Speaker 5: Yeah.

675
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,800
Speaker 3: Now, Chris Rock reported the man appeared to have a

676
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 3: camera and that they seemed to be attempting to either

677
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 3: film or snap pictures of him.

678
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh.

679
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:45,919
Speaker 3: And Manhattan, it's really hard to get away with stuff

680
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,439
Speaker 3: like that too, because there's too many people that see you,

681
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 3: that are doing things. But the other, I guess flip

682
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:53,479
Speaker 3: side of it is that there's so much going on.

683
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,159
Speaker 3: Nothing looks weird now there is a lot going on.

684
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 3: There's so much going on. You could be walking out

685
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 3: somebody's house with a TV. Yes, there belong is that

686
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,160
Speaker 3: nobody's gonna think anything.

687
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 5: People gonna mind a business, Yes, we gonna mind our

688
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 5: business all right.

689
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 14: Now.

690
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,160
Speaker 4: This is a really sad story. Nli Chappa.

691
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 3: He actually donated a brand new basketball court in Raleigh,

692
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:16,480
Speaker 3: and apparently that court was destroyed by fire less than

693
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 3: two weeks after it opened. So we tried to do

694
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 3: this amazing, great deed. They did say the cause of

695
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 3: the fire was determined to be a pile of fireworks

696
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,879
Speaker 3: that have been ignited in the center.

697
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:27,679
Speaker 4: Of the court.

698
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 3: So Nick Walker, who is the Memphis Parks director, said

699
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 3: the court was a total loss. He said, it's very

700
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 3: sad that this random action destroyed a new and valued

701
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 3: community asset. Memphis Parks really appreciates the partnership and sponsorship

702
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 3: that led to the creation of the Dream Court, and

703
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 3: we really look forward to finding a way to get

704
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 3: an asset of similar quality back into the Raleigh community.

705
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 3: We've been in touch with the Liberman Charities and NLI

706
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 3: Chappa to express appreciation and support for the community.

707
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 5: Oh that's too bad.

708
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're doing one hundred and twenty Dream Courts around

709
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 3: the country. So the Dream Court, who is the centerpiece

710
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 3: and an early Chapa, is always trying to do things

711
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 3: to help out.

712
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 6: How about the community.

713
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 5: It seems like he gives back a lot.

714
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 3: All right, Well, that is your yee tea. And when

715
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 3: we come back, we have under the radar. These are

716
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 3: the stories that are not necessarily in the headlines, but

717
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 3: you know they're just as important, and we want to

718
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: make sure that you are aware. It's way up at

719
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 3: Angela Yee news.

720
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 2: This in the news that relates to you. These stories

721
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 2: are flying under the radar.

722
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 4: It's way up at Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee.

723
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 3: Hey Jasmine, Hey, Angela, Happy Wednesday. I love that you

724
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 3: dance to whatever music is playing. I'm like, what's going on.

725
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 3: I'm trying to stay up all right.

726
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 4: Well way up.

727
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,720
Speaker 3: Our New York residents have been urged to stay indoors.

728
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 3: There's unhealthy air quality and I can vouch for that.

729
00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 3: I was outside walking here. I can stop coughing today

730
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 3: and it's very smoggy out and New York State they're

731
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 3: wanting residents to avoid being outdoors because of the potential

732
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 3: health risk that could persist. New York City has the

733
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 3: world's worst air pollution of any major city.

734
00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,040
Speaker 4: During parts of Tuesday, there's heavy smoke.

735
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 3: From more than one hundred wildfires that have been burning

736
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 3: north of the Canadian border that have drifted south. So

737
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 3: it's an alarming air quality and they are saying please

738
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 3: limit your outdoor activity. And also they have issued an

739
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 3: air quality health advisory.

740
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 5: Okay, you can definitely tell the difference here in New

741
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 5: York right now.

742
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, in New York City public schools they canceled all

743
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 3: outdoor activities today. And you know, schools are still open,

744
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 3: but as far as being outside, no, yep, got to

745
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 3: be careful. I've never experienced something like this.

746
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 5: This is my first.

747
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 3: I'm used to dealing with pollution on a daily basis,

748
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 3: but not to this level.

749
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 5: And there's some advice for if you have you know, kids,

750
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,320
Speaker 5: you have to be even more concerned or you know,

751
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 5: infants and stuff.

752
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,719
Speaker 3: So yeah, check your local air quality levels. You can

753
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 3: go to air now dot gov. All right, and children

754
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 3: are very susceptible to changes in air quality. Their lungs

755
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 3: are still growing, so they breathe in a lot of

756
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 3: air relative to their body size.

757
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 7: Yeah.

758
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 3: Another story in Hawaii, there is a terminal used by

759
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 3: Southwest Hawaii flights at a Honolulu airport and they're.

760
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 4: Saying bedbus bugs I've been an issue.

761
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,120
Speaker 3: Last week they reported the bugs had made a home

762
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 3: at the e gates in Terminal two. At first, they

763
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 3: thought that they could easily rectify the situation. Just remove

764
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 3: what the things are that we're attracting the bedbugs. But

765
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 3: wasn't so easy. They actually had to dispatch a staff

766
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 3: and start deep cleaning and carpet removal. Then an exterminator

767
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 3: was summoned to apply pest controls. The gates were closed temporarily,

768
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 3: but they're saying this bedbug removal process will be ongoing

769
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 3: for three weeks.

770
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 1: Wow.

771
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, bedbugs are no joke.

772
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, because they spread really quickly and it's hard to

773
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 3: get rid of them, and then they get on your clothes.

774
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 5: Yeah. They said, people bring them in with their luggage

775
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 5: and that's how they kind of spread.

776
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 3: In terms of the airline, and previously, American Airlines had

777
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 3: a bedbug infestation on one of their fleets and that's

778
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,959
Speaker 3: an uproar imagine. I don't know if anybody's ever been

779
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,880
Speaker 3: bitten by a bedbug before, but I've seen bedbug bites

780
00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,400
Speaker 3: and it is discussing crew members were bitten on this

781
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 3: flight and the use of insectivised insecticides was severe and

782
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,800
Speaker 3: that caused some more issues At one point on American Airlines.

783
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 3: The Flight Attendants Union said, we've received countless reports this

784
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 3: week from concerned flight attendants who have experienced various health

785
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 3: issues after using crew bunks on our wide body fleet,

786
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 3: and so bedbugs do become an issue.

787
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 5: Okay, well, how do we avoid? What are we supposed

788
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 5: to do so that this doesn't happen?

789
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 3: Well, don't bring luggage directly into your home, they said. Initially,

790
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,200
Speaker 3: leave your bags in the garage or a sealed plastic

791
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 3: bag or bin. Heat the luggage and its contents, for example,

792
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 3: if you put the bags in a black trash bag

793
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,120
Speaker 3: in the sun, or purchase luggage with a heater, which

794
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 3: they do have those available, or you can buy a

795
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 3: luggage heater. Bedbugs can't live in high heat, so if

796
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 3: you heat your clothes and your contents.

797
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 4: Of that bag, then you'll eliminate them.

798
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 3: Also, wash your clothes immediately after a chip using the

799
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 3: hot cycle or the alternative is the opposite, freeze the

800
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 3: contents of your bags that will also kill the bugs.

801
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 3: And then when you have to, you can use hot, soapy,

802
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 3: wetter and a scrub breast to remove bedbug eggs and

803
00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 3: bug themselves. Also use a flash slight and look for

804
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,840
Speaker 3: their presence. They're live moving bedbugs. They're tan, red or brown.

805
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 5: Oh my goodness, do you.

806
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 3: Do any of these things, Well, that's only if there's

807
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 3: bed bugs, like there's some type of fair.

808
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 5: But this is how to But what you listed is

809
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 5: how to avoid them. So I feel like we should

810
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 5: be doing something every time we travel. No, I don't

811
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 5: do these I don't do any of these things.

812
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,600
Speaker 3: But one thing I don't like that people do is

813
00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 3: do not put no bags on your bed. I see

814
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 3: this on TV shows and movies. If you put a

815
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 3: defo bag that you've had on the floor or a

816
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 3: suitcase on your bed, that is disgusting.

817

Speaker 9: Collabn with Days was always like on my bucket list.

880
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,560

881
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 9: to her project to Sell Soul. I used to listen

882
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 9: to it all the time. Only man, she's so hard.

883
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,799
Speaker 9: But when I came home, she like started falling back

884
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,920
Speaker 9: a little bit right, and I'm like, man, damn, I

885
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,840
Speaker 9: gotta get to her though. And then it was just

886
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,200

00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 3: Dominique Fishback says that in Transformers, there was a stunt

910
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,400
Speaker 3: that she did that could have been very bad. She

911
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,799
Speaker 3: was at the New York City premiere of Transformers Rise

912
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 3: of the Beasts, and she said, there's a part where

913
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 3: I'm supposed to go down into a cave. I had

914
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 3: a harness on and a guy is holding it. The

915
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 3: director wanted me to step down without looking so that

916
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 3: the camera could get more in my face before I

917
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,160
Speaker 3: descended into the cave. But I missed the step and

918
00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:27,919
Speaker 3: I fell back.

919
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 5: Okay, that sounds scared. I was imagining it.

920
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 6: Go ahead.

921
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:35,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, So she said the what she ended up doing

922
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:36,960
Speaker 3: there with that missing that step didn't even make it

923
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 3: in the final film. She said, it's not in there,

924
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:40,160
Speaker 3: but the guy had to grab the rope to make

925
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 3: sure I didn't fall, So it could have.

926
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 4: Been very bad.

927
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:43,840

Speaker 3: a ferry and we're figuring it out. So they don't

948
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,360
Speaker 3: even know what's going on with this ferry. They you know,

949
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 3: he's from Staten Island and they had plans to create

950
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 3: a restaurant, a bar and entertainment space on the boat

951
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 3: that people could visit while it was docked. But I

952
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 3: don't know if that can even happen, and so they

953
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 3: don't know.

954
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 5: Have you ever bought something while you were high, a

955
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 5: purchase you regret.

956
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 3: It, not a boat, a small purchase like sweater, likewhoes.

957
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 3: And I see that Gloria Govan is having some legal

958
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:04,560
Speaker 3: issues as well. Now I was on social media and

959
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:07,200
Speaker 3: I saw on the neighborhood Talk that she could find

960
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 3: herself in jail. She has to pay this default judgment

961
00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 3: that's owed to Matt Barnes. She actually ended up having

962
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 3: to pay for court fees and everything. And so now

963
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 3: that sum is hundred and thirty seven thousand dollars and

964
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 3: so if she doesn't pay that bill, she could end

965
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 3: up going to jail on a default judgment.

966
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,120
Speaker 5: They seem to still be having some issues with each other.

967
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 3: All right, well that is your yee t And when

968
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 3: we come back, we're going to talk about this. I

969
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 3: was knocked out yesterday, but there was a period of

970
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,959
Speaker 3: time in my life when I could not sleep for anything,

971
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 3: and even when I had to get up at four

972
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 3: o'clock in the morning every day, I would just be

973
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 3: up all night. And we're going to talk about what

974
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,719
Speaker 3: time you fall asleep and what that means when it

975
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:55,280
Speaker 3: comes to your health. It's way up with the Angela Ye, I'm.

976
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 2: You ride a way up with Angela Ye.

977
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 4: What's up?

978
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,799
Speaker 3: It's way up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee. And

979
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 3: Jasmine from the Jasmine brand is here.

980
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 5: Yes, I'm not just I'm my own brand. Thank you.

981
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 3: Yesterday, I had a long day, okay, Like came to

982
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,919
Speaker 3: work and I honestly did not. I had to go

983
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 3: deal with some things with my brownstone in Brooklyn.

984
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 5: Uh huh.

985
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,000
Speaker 3: I was there for hours and I had a zoom.

986
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 3: Then I came to meet you. So I didn't get

987
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 3: home till probably like the missus, Yeah, like around ten

988
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:30,360
Speaker 3: thirty at night. Okay, So I fell and fell asleep

989
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,040
Speaker 3: immediately passed out, right.

990
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 5: Can I just say something really quick? The thing is

991
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 5: you have obviously, you have like fifty jobs, that's the thing.

992
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 5: And then you have like other responsibilities.

993
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 4: A lot of them. Some of them are people.

994
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, I have some other responsibilities too, but not

995
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 5: as many as you.

996
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 4: You have your own business. I do, all right.

997
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 3: So they're saying here now, yesterday, when I tell you

998
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 3: I fell asleep, I tried to pull out my laptop

999
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 3: and do a little work.

1000
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 4: I just said forget it. It's not happening.

1001
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 3: And according to studies, going to sleep really quickly isn't

1002
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,719
Speaker 3: always a good thing, and taking too long is also

1003
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,759
Speaker 3: not a good thing. So what is that sweet spot, right,

1004
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 3: Because sometimes you have so much going on in your

1005
00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 3: head you end up laying in bed just thinking and

1006
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 3: you can't sleep tossing and turning.

1007
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 4: That's definitely happened to me. Both things have happened to me.

1008
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:20,640
Speaker 3: So the time it takes for you to go to

1009
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 3: sleep is clinically called sleep latency, and there's no set,

1010
00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:26,239
Speaker 3: normal or healthy amount of time that it should take,

1011
00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,800
Speaker 3: but there are some guide posts that you should follow.

1012
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 3: So they said, according to the National Sleep Foundation, it

1013
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 3: should take about fifteen to twenty minutes for a healthy.

1014
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 5: Person fifteen to twenty minutes.

1015
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 3: Now people with health conditions it can take thirty to

1016
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 3: forty minutes. But they said it's good to spend the

1017
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 3: half hour before bed winding ourselves down while we're awake

1018
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 3: and do kind of a night bedtime routine. So they

1019
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,640
Speaker 3: have different things that you can be doing to make

1020
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 3: sure that it's a routine. But falling asleep within a

1021
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 3: half an hour is a good goal. And if you

1022
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:57,919
Speaker 3: fall asleep right when your head hits the pillow. It's

1023
00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 3: not necessarily a cause for concern over all, but it

1024
00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:02,879
Speaker 3: could mean that something is going on.

1025
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 4: It could mean that you simply need more sleep.

1026
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 3: That was my life, yes, for a long, long period

1027
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,839
Speaker 3: of time, and there would be times that I would

1028
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,000
Speaker 3: take a ten minute nap. I would set my alarm

1029
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 3: for ten minutes because I needed a quick nap so quickly.

1030
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:17,879
Speaker 3: But that can be a sign of exhaustion, a sign

1031
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,359
Speaker 3: that we're overworking ourselves, a sign a burnout, a sign

1032
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 3: that we're not spending enough time recovering and arresting. And

1033
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 3: it may mean that you're not sleeping long enough and

1034
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 3: you're getting that quote unquote junk sleep. That's not enough

1035
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 3: for you to feel well rested and nourished, nourished, nourished.

1036
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 3: Another reason they said that it's really important to know this.

1037
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 3: You could have a mental health condition. It could be

1038
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,839
Speaker 3: a side effective medication or caused by mental health diagnosis,

1039
00:42:42,880 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 3: such as depression. So depression may make you sleepy, but

1040
00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 3: so do certain antidepressants.

1041
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's true.

1042
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,200
Speaker 5: I took something before it used to As soon as

1043
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 5: I would take it, it would put me right to sleep.

1044
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 5: It was like for depression all right.

1045
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,560
Speaker 3: Also sleep apnea that's very common in older adults. It's

1046
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 3: a chronic sleep disorder. I know people who have that.

1047
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:03,719
Speaker 3: They have to sleep with that machine over their face. Yes,

1048
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 3: that's where your upper airway is completely or partially obstructed

1049
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 3: during sleep, leading to a decrease in oxygen content.

1050
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,839
Speaker 4: That leads to sleep fragmentation. So you're always like waking up.

1051
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 3: And you can notice this if you're fatigued during the day,

1052
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 3: if you're having some problems understanding things, your cognitive dysfunction.

1053
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 3: So they advise a regular sleep schedule and to quit smoking.

1054
00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:26,440
Speaker 3: If you smoke, all right, and if you fall asleep slowly,

1055
00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 3: that's the other side of the coin, and that could

1056
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 3: be a symptom of insomnia, chronic pain, a psychological or

1057
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 3: medical condition. That could mean that your sleep routine isn't

1058
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,440
Speaker 3: the best. You have an inconsistent bedtime. I noticed that

1059
00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 3: even when I know on the weekend, I still will

1060
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:41,439
Speaker 3: wake up around the same time.

1061
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I wake up around the same time every day.

1062
00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 3: You could feel emotional or stressed. That can make you

1063
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,880
Speaker 3: just be up all night, they said. Distress, anxiety and

1064
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,960
Speaker 3: other emotional concerns can trigger insomnia by leading to an

1065
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 3: overactive sympathetic nervous system. So make sure you see a

1066
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:58,880
Speaker 3: medical provider because sleep is so important. That's why my

1067
00:43:58,920 --> 00:43:59,760
Speaker 3: matches is important.

1068
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 5: Yes, you know, and well the bed I sleep on

1069
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,600
Speaker 5: in your place is very comfortable. All your places have

1070
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:07,360
Speaker 5: comfortable beds.

1071
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 4: For me, that's a Savoir mattress. Shout out to beds.

1072
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,359
Speaker 5: It's nice, You're very nice. Nice.

1073
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 3: But I do believe in investing in the right mattress

1074
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,359
Speaker 3: because you don't want to wake up all sore. Your

1075
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 3: body hurts. See hour you can't sleep. It's tossing and turning.

1076
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:23,239
Speaker 3: You can feel them, the wires. I've had those too.

1077
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:24,480
Speaker 3: You can feel the coils.

1078
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:25,960
Speaker 5: And you've had those. I don't really invest in like

1079
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,839
Speaker 5: I should into the mattress situation. Yes, yeah, but it's

1080
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 5: important to make it happen. All right.

1081
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 3: Well, when we come back, we have Caroline Wanga joining us.

00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 3: took my god daughter one year. She really really wanted

1102
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:34,839
Speaker 3: to go. Let's try to go this year. Okay, it's

1103
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,200

Speaker 3: and figure that out, Angela, Yeah, we got to figure

1106
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 3: that out because you know, I want to be able

1107
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 3: to do it all.

1108
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 5: Yes, sometimes we cannot do it all.

1109
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:50,719
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, you're absolutely right, And shout out to my

00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 3: things that I need to handle with that.

1112
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 4: But that's been going well.

1113
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 10: You know.

1114
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 3: It's having a business and being a small business owner

1115
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,359
Speaker 3: is not easy. I'm trying to figure some things out

1116
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 3: right now.

1117
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 5: And for those who don't know, it's in Brooklyn.

1121
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,440
Speaker 3: my whole life, right, so I'm newer to this, but

1122
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 3: I actually have it every day now pretty much.

1123
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, I have, And you make a little for me

1124
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:23,839

00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 3: My home, and I like to actually, here's a little

1128
00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,439
Speaker 3: thing I do. I like to make my coffee with

1129
00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 3: actually chocolate oat milk. Yes, and it's delicious like that.

1130
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 5: And sometimes we add a little something in there too.

1131
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 4: Something's a little Baillies. All right. So we're gonna keep

Speaker 4: So can you talk about Essence Ventures for people?

1154
00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:43,360
Speaker 3: Because we think of Essence Festival, we think of the magazine,

1155
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,800
Speaker 3: but there are other ventures too, That's why it's Essence Adventures.

00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 13: to be with you here. I'm super proud of what

1160
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 13: you're doing and what you continue to do and who

1161
00:47:58,200 --> 00:47:58,840
Speaker 13: would inspire.

1162
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 6: So I'm honored to be here Jazz when I'm to

1163
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 6: be here with you as well.

1164
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,920
Speaker 13: So let's talk about Essence Ventures, right, So here's the

1165
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:05,399
Speaker 13: way that I would have you think about it.

1166
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,359
Speaker 6: There are a series of.

1167
00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:10,960
Speaker 13: Companies that sit under this brand called Essence Ventures, and

1168
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 13: when you tie them together, the goal is to really

1169
00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 13: create a frictionless and browndrey list black economic engine. So

1170
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:21,680
Speaker 13: what it includes is Essence Communications, which is the festival

1171
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 13: and the magazine and Black Women in Hollywood and all

1172
00:48:24,239 --> 00:48:25,840
Speaker 13: these activations that everybody knows.

1173
00:48:26,120 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 6: What also sits with underneath me now as a part

1174
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:30,160
Speaker 6: of the group is Beauty Con.

1175
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 13: So people may remember the brand Beauty Conmber that. Yeah,

1176
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 13: so most people like Beauty Con is a heck of

1177
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 13: a following and had been dormant for a couple of years.

1178
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:43,320
Speaker 3: We wonder what happens last summer?

1179
00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:45,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, so we acquired that last summer.

1180
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 13: In fact, we're doing this week, we're doing a media

1181
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:49,960
Speaker 13: day to talk about the relaunch of that.

1182
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 6: So we will be relaunching Beautycon this year.

1183
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:54,480
Speaker 13: We've already got a couple of events on the calendar

1184
00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 13: for this year.

1185
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 6: As it is. What also sits within there's Afropunk.

1186
00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 13: So Afropunk is a long standing brand that definition of

1187
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,960
Speaker 13: is it has always been the safest place for black

1188
00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 13: that's on the margin, meaning folks that have interested in

1189
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:08,840
Speaker 13: things that may not have been acceptable in black community.

1190
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 13: May have been different, whether it be heavy metal, gamers,

1191
00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 13: comic con, all of that, but at the end of

1192
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 13: the day, Afropunk is is the part of our portfolio

1193
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:22,799
Speaker 13: that stands anti anything right, anti homophobia, anti racism, anti right,

1194
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,880
Speaker 13: and really has represented how we make sure that the

1195
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 13: full spectrum of what it means to be black, because

1196
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,719
Speaker 13: it's not a monolith, is seen and heard equitably.

1197
00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,840
Speaker 6: And it's one of my absolute favorite communities.

1198
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 13: But than the fourth brand is Essen Studios, which is

1199
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,279
Speaker 13: our own production house. It basically became what saved our

1200
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:40,800
Speaker 13: business during the pandemic. It became a streaming platform for

1201
00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 13: the festival where we have forty five million views, sixty

1202
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 13: five million views the next year, and so now what

1203
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 13: we're doing is really reinventing what studios is going to

1204
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,759
Speaker 13: be to help fill in where our portfolio needs more

1205
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 13: focus on particular Black segments to be able to drive forward.

1206
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 6: But that's what Essence Ventures is.

1207
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:57,799
Speaker 4: That's a lot that had come up for each different.

1208
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,359
Speaker 6: And I have to sleep different segments to go through

1209
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:02,560
Speaker 6: each of them.

1210
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 13: But it's a beautiful combination of something that as we

1211
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 13: continue to refine it will really really really continue to

1212
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,400
Speaker 13: do our part to strengthen Black in terms of community,

1213
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,360
Speaker 13: Black in terms of value, Black in terms of culture,

1214
00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:17,360
Speaker 13: Black in terms of capital, and all of that is

1215
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:18,399
Speaker 13: only good.

1216
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 3: And there's never a question for Essence Fest to be

1217
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:23,040
Speaker 3: in New Orleans, right listen, you.

1218
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 13: Know I have to tell me New Orleans because they

1219
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:27,399
Speaker 13: don't understand that this mouth is the horse's mouth.

1220
00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:30,080
Speaker 6: So the horse's mouth said, we're never leaving New Orleans.

1221
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,520
Speaker 13: When you look at what the people that participate in

1222
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:34,319
Speaker 13: the festival do for the city of New Orleans, you

1223
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 13: understand what would be different if we left. We're talking

1224
00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:40,439
Speaker 13: about an annual impact, meaning every year of three hundred

1225
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 13: and twenty seven million dollars a year that we pumped

1226
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 13: straight into New Orleans, whether that be taxes, whether that

1227
00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:47,399
Speaker 13: be lodging, whether that be flights. We're talking about what

1228
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,360
Speaker 13: we do to create thirty six hundred jobs locally, Like

1229
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 13: forget us coming in and having a good time to

1230
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 13: spending that money. We are an economy for New Orleans

1231
00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 13: and what we can't do is abandon that for aesthetic.

1232
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:03,680
Speaker 3: We're talking to Caroline Wanga, the CEO and president of Essence.

1233
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:07,440
Speaker 4: Now, I know you saw a juvenile gonna be.

1234
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:11,680
Speaker 13: Fifty years of hip hop in New Orleans without including me.

1235
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:12,840
Speaker 8: That's crazy.

1236
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:15,160
Speaker 6: See you chose violence.

1237
00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,839
Speaker 5: Were Where is the where?

1238
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:20,760
Speaker 6: Okay?

1239
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 5: So listen, please address it.

1240
00:51:23,040 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 6: I'm gonna address it head on. Let me be really clear, right.

1241
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:28,880
Speaker 13: So, one of the things we changed within the festival

1242
00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 13: is that we used to have like a theme each year,

1243
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:31,799
Speaker 13: Like last year was a.

1244
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:33,520
Speaker 6: Black Joy for me. We came and visited and talked

1245
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 6: with that.

1246
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,319
Speaker 13: As we are doing this evolution of the festival, made

1247
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:38,920
Speaker 13: an intentional decision to not necessarily stick to try to

1248
00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:41,200
Speaker 13: come up with the theme because it makes everything dramatic,

1249
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:43,920
Speaker 13: but instead look at what are black cultural moments that

1250
00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:46,440
Speaker 13: are happening that are relevant that we want to tap into.

1251
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,879
Speaker 6: And because this was the fiftieth anniversary of hip hop,

1252
00:51:48,880 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 6: of course we like and so are we. So we

1253
00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 6: made a.

1254

1264
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:23,880

1265
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:26,839
Speaker 13: in this new era of essence was to be engaged

1266
00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,440
Speaker 13: with the local New Orleans community authentically. So on Monday,

Speaker 6: So whether or not a particular.

1273
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,560
Speaker 13: Individual was on a roster is different from we don't

1274
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:46,720
Speaker 13: care about NOLA artists.

1275
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,840
Speaker 6: Okay, so that's the way that I'll address it.

1276
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:50,839
Speaker 3: Okay, good, well, I'm glad we put it out there

1277
00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:52,600
Speaker 3: right away. Because but that's how.

1278
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 6: To watch juvenile social handles.

1279
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,240
Speaker 3: If you want to know more, we're talking to Caroline Wanga,

1280
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:59,880
Speaker 3: the CEO and president of Essence.

1281
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 4: Now let's talk about.

1282
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 3: You, yes for a second, because just you having this

1283
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 3: role at Essence and the way you started. You came

1284
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,919
Speaker 3: in and then within a month you became the CEO

1285
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 3: of that part.

1286
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,880
Speaker 4: You came in under hook about it.

1287
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:16,719
Speaker 3: So let's discuss for yourself just having to put all

1288
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 3: of this together and being on the front lines of

1289
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:22,719
Speaker 3: everything and clearly some things have to change because you're

1290
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 3: bringing your own vision and trying to see what needs

1291
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:28,439
Speaker 3: to evolve into a different space. How has that been

1292
00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:30,840
Speaker 3: for you? Because that's not easy. I saw an article

1293
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:33,960
Speaker 3: we're doing this where you talked about five failures. Allow

1294
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:35,959
Speaker 3: yourself five failures a day. If you get to six,

1295
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,960
Speaker 3: there's a problem, or you get to.

1296
00:53:40,920 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, hit rese But how hasn't been for you?

1297
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 13: I sincerely appreciate the question because I took the opportunity

1298
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:49,799
Speaker 13: to come to this brand as an active service, and

1299
00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:51,799
Speaker 13: what I mean by that is like this thing does

1300
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 13: not belong to me or to you, like it belongs

1301
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:57,000
Speaker 13: to the community. I came into a whole bunch of stuff.

1302
00:53:57,200 --> 00:53:59,319
Speaker 13: But what I think is most important to understand is

1303
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:01,279
Speaker 13: the business was not healthy because of how it had

1304
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:04,360
Speaker 13: been treated within time INK and the work to rebuild

1305
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:07,480
Speaker 13: that business was a lot financially, was a lot culturally,

1306
00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,880
Speaker 13: but the level to which there was missed moments and

1307
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:14,960
Speaker 13: misinformation and where hurt people had hurt people and all

1308
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 13: of that, the volume of it was much louder than

1309
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,520
Speaker 13: I understood it to be before I came in the

1310
00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 13: beauty is My prior role was working in creating inclusive

1311
00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 13: environments and listening, and so as much as I was

1312
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:28,640
Speaker 13: worried about not coming from the media space, I ended

1313
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:30,640
Speaker 13: up needing the skills that I had in my last

1314
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:33,839
Speaker 13: job to just listen and be honest about the fact

1315
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:35,320
Speaker 13: that we've taken all of this in and we're not

1316
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,520
Speaker 13: going to decide where we're going to go. But then

1317
00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:40,520
Speaker 13: I would say, the mantle is heavy, and some of

1318
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 13: that is self inflicted, and I don't know that I

1319
00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 13: was fully prepared, and so I think there were moments in.

1320
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:49,400
Speaker 6: Especially that first year, where I just had to sit down.

1321
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:51,799
Speaker 13: And go, do you still want to You now know

1322
00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 13: the weight of the mantle. You get to decide, and

1323
00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 13: every time I got into one of those moments, the

1324
00:54:58,200 --> 00:54:59,120
Speaker 13: answer was yes.

1325
00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,320
Speaker 6: So to be able to go through.

1326
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:03,000
Speaker 13: That and then now have these other brands sitting with

1327
00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:05,120
Speaker 13: me and to see where we are as a business.

1328
00:55:05,239 --> 00:55:07,279
Speaker 13: We've had a two hundred and sixty percent increase in

1329
00:55:07,360 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 13: profitability in three years. We've increased our team by thirty

1330
00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 13: six percent. We've increased salaries about forty seven percent. Like

1331
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,279
Speaker 13: every day that I said yes with this team is

1332
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,520
Speaker 13: manifesting in a way that is even beyond what I

1333
00:55:20,520 --> 00:55:21,200
Speaker 13: could imagine.

1334
00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:24,800
Speaker 6: And so the days are still hard, but the progress.

1335
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,719
Speaker 13: That has been proven on behalf of our community is

1336
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:29,000
Speaker 13: the thing that keeps me fueled. With the teams that

1337
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,600
Speaker 13: we work with and the partners like y'all and the

1338
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 13: family that continue to.

1339
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:33,919
Speaker 6: Help this thing show.

1340
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:35,640
Speaker 4: Numbers don't lie, they don't lie at all.

1341
00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 6: And on the days where I get to the sixth trail,

1342
00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:38,880
Speaker 6: we just end the day and.

1377
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:13,200
Speaker 3: person that you're like, we book around this.

1378
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:15,760
Speaker 6: You know, I would love to tell you this beautiful

1379
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:16,960
Speaker 6: organized story.

1380
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,080
Speaker 4: But I'm gonna tell you how it actually happens, right because.

1381
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 6: We real out here. What we have decided was that

1382
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,200
Speaker 6: we were going to lean into the When you are

1383
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:23,960
Speaker 6: a festival.

1384
00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:25,520
Speaker 13: That's been around for twenty nine years, people get worried

1385
00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:26,400
Speaker 13: about who you're gonna put on.

1386
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:28,160
Speaker 6: Your roster, and so there may be organizations out there

1387
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:29,439
Speaker 6: that try to block particular town.

1388
00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 5: The formative festival competition.

1389
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:33,480
Speaker 13: Hey, it's the highest form of flattery. And you got

1390
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:35,720
Speaker 13: to make next well civity contracts. You can't come perform alone.

1391
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:37,160
Speaker 5: I never thought about that kind of stuff.

1392
00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 13: Oh yeah, bibit, okay, come on, we're twenty nine years old.

1393
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,160
Speaker 13: All these other ones is new. So in order to

1394
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:45,840
Speaker 13: continue to win against us, you gotta cheat. So you

1395
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 13: cheat the time, so many contracts to cut people off.

1396
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 13: So I say that because one of the first things

1397
00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,960
Speaker 13: was who's available, right, We can't move our date, Like

1398
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,040
Speaker 13: our date is the fourth of July weekend. You know,

1399
00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,000
Speaker 13: other festivals may have a date, but they can play

1400
00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:58,800
Speaker 13: maybe within a week.

1401
00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 6: It's fourth of July weekend.

1402
00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 13: That's when we do it, and so availability has to

1403
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:05,520
Speaker 13: be there. Then we went down the path of how

1404
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 13: do we make sure that there's a multi generational representation right,

1405
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 13: and so it was really about that.

1406
00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:11,880
Speaker 6: And then just like we said about hip hop, we

1407
00:58:11,920 --> 00:58:12,640
Speaker 6: looked at what are some.

1408
00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:15,920
Speaker 13: Cool moments that this year represents, and so it happened

1409
00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:19,720
Speaker 13: to be the twenty fifth anniversary of the Miseducation of

1410
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:22,200
Speaker 13: Lauren Hill Missy gets.

1411
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:22,520
Speaker 6: Into the Rock.

1412
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:25,280
Speaker 13: And then when we look at Meghan the styling like

1413
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,960
Speaker 13: we had Nicki Minaj last year, Meghan is killing it all.

1414
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:28,480
Speaker 5: Yes she is.

1415
00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 13: And so really it became really a matter of just

1416
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,800
Speaker 13: reverse engineering into what makes sense on headliners.

1417
00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,360
Speaker 6: I know, from a hip hop perspective.

1418
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,680
Speaker 13: We were also really passionate about having regional representation and

1419
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 13: making sure that it wasn't the hip hop of anyone

1420
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:42,120
Speaker 13: area that was kind of leading.

1421
00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 6: And so that's what kind of led to these curations.

1422
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:45,920
Speaker 13: And then we looked at what do we want to

1423
00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,560
Speaker 13: do differently with how we host, We've had many different

1424
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 13: host pieces and so we looked at comedians.

1425
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:53,760
Speaker 3: This year we're talking to Caroline Wanga, the CEO and

1426
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,959
Speaker 3: president of Essence and as far as Wanga Women, yes, yeah,

1427
00:58:58,480 --> 00:59:01,040
Speaker 3: because I always think it's important to have your own

1428
00:59:01,160 --> 00:59:04,240
Speaker 3: personal brands as well and what you do.

1429
00:59:04,400 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 4: So can you just give us, I'll give you a

1430
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:07,280
Speaker 4: break some Wa Woman.

1431
00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:07,880
Speaker 5: Yes.

1432
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,240
Speaker 13: So Wanga Woman was born out of the way that

1433
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 13: I was choosing to talk about how purpose played a

1434
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 13: role in my life and really how shedding what was

1435
00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:19,680
Speaker 13: a way of operating that wasn't authentic as who I

1436
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:23,680
Speaker 13: was changed the trajectory of my career, my life, my finances.

1437
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 13: And so we founded Wanga Women really out of demand.

1438
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:29,840
Speaker 13: People wanted us to come and talk more about how

1439
00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:31,880
Speaker 13: do you weaponize authenticity for.

1440
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:32,439
Speaker 6: Your own good.

1441
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 13: The mission of Wango Woman is to democratize authenticity by

1442
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 13: helping people find their purpose. Yes, it comes with speaking opportunities,

1443
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 13: but there's courses and other things that are literally just

1444
00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,560
Speaker 13: based on what I did to find myself because the

1445
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 13: personal mission in it for me is it took me

1446
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 13: so long having been a mom at seventeen and being

1447
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:53,600
Speaker 13: stuck at that failure for almost eighteen years and not

1448
00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 13: seeing what I'd done and operating apologetically, and people renegotiated

1449
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:00,760
Speaker 13: my potential without my permission, and a whole bunch of

1450
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 13: other stuff.

1451
01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 6: I was so stuck there for almost twenty years.

1452
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,640
Speaker 13: And when I finally unlocked who I was and looked

1453
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:09,000
Speaker 13: back to fix my life, my psychological birthdays and all

1454
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,959
Speaker 13: that stuff, I got so angry that it took so long.

1455
01:00:13,040 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 13: That my mission became getting people to get to that

1456
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:17,600
Speaker 13: place sooner so they can have funner sooner. And so

1457
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,520
Speaker 13: the mission is simply to democratize authenticity by getting people

1458
01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 13: connected to their purpose so that they can start to

1459
01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:25,440
Speaker 13: activate their purpose in the world. Because I believe that

1460
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,920
Speaker 13: everybody has a purpose that's uniquely theirs, and if they

1461
01:00:27,920 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 13: don't go after it, the world goes without.

1462
01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,200
Speaker 6: So we say, who you are is who you are.

1463
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:33,040
Speaker 13: If you can't be who you are where you are,

1464
01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:34,480
Speaker 13: you change where you are, not who you are.

1465
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:35,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I better connect.

1466
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:37,040
Speaker 5: I want to get sooner.

1467
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:40,440
Speaker 13: I like that because then like there's a conercorpia of

1468
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:41,320
Speaker 13: fun and excitement for you.

Speaker 11: I'm like dealing with depression kind of go bad at

1512
01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:29,200
Speaker 11: this point because I can't work because we don't have

Speaker 11: any family support enough to watch the kids. Me and

1514
01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 11: Dad like we're together, he's working, but like in the meantime,

1515
01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:41,280
Speaker 11: I'm dealing with my own stress and like having to

1516
01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 11: be under the pressure of all the responsibility.

1517
01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:43,720
Speaker 10: As a mom.

1518
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:45,200
Speaker 4: Right, that's a lot.

1519
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 11: I get kind of like stressed out, and I get mad,

1520
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:50,880
Speaker 11: and I sometimes take it out on him in a

1521
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,880
Speaker 11: wrong way or I don't know how to express it.

1522
01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:58,959
Speaker 11: How do I not let this like what I'm going through?

1523
01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:02,160
Speaker 11: How do I not let it? Our relationship and til

1524
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:03,960
Speaker 11: how do I'm not let it faus?

1525
01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:07,240
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I think it feels like you need to

1526
01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:10,720
Speaker 3: do some things for yourself at times to make your

1527
01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:13,520
Speaker 3: because at least you're acknowledging the fact that, like, you know,

1528
01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:15,600
Speaker 3: how you've been feeling. And I do also want to

1529
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:17,680
Speaker 3: point out that I don't know if you have postpartum,

1530
01:03:17,680 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 3: but there it could last for years.

1531
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, it could last longer than you think.

1532
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:24,080
Speaker 3: So it could also be that as part of it.

1533
01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:25,880
Speaker 3: But also having kids is not an easy thing. I

1534
01:03:25,920 --> 01:03:30,440
Speaker 3: heard your cuties in the background right now, and I

1535
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:32,480
Speaker 3: just feel like, you know, it also could be I

1536
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,200
Speaker 3: know people who have had kids and the husband or

1537
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:39,000
Speaker 3: the father works and sometimes it's difficult to be in

1538
01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:42,680
Speaker 3: the house with the children and not be around other adults.

1539
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:44,840
Speaker 4: During the day, and you.

1540
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:46,880
Speaker 3: Know, so I know that's difficult too, and I feel

1541
01:03:46,960 --> 01:03:49,560
Speaker 3: like it's time for you to do some things that

1542
01:03:49,640 --> 01:03:52,280
Speaker 3: you need to handle for yourself to Koba, like have

1543
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:54,400
Speaker 3: you been making sure that you go outside, that you

1544
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:55,640
Speaker 3: go for walks.

1545
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:59,240
Speaker 11: I go outside, and of course they always got to

1546
01:03:59,240 --> 01:04:01,400
Speaker 11: be right pre hearing me. I mean, I do try

1547
01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:04,880
Speaker 11: to like get some air and things like that, and

1548
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 11: then I try to like, you know, talking to myself,

1549
01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:09,200
Speaker 11: like not in a crazy way, but I'm like I

1550
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:10,880
Speaker 11: talked thinking out loud.

1551
01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:12,919
Speaker 3: Don't worry, I talk to myself all the time. So

1552
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:14,640
Speaker 3: she talks to herself in front in front.

1553
01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:14,959
Speaker 6: Of the stop.

1554
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 8: Yes, sometimes feel like I'm like, it makes you feel better,

1555
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:23,640
Speaker 8: But then I kind of backchecked because then when I

1556
01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:26,200
Speaker 8: get around here, I just be like, I'm just not

1557
01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:27,040
Speaker 8: good enough.

1558
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:28,080
Speaker 4: No, not at all.

1559
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:30,760
Speaker 3: Do you get to see your friends and family? Do

1560
01:04:30,800 --> 01:04:32,600
Speaker 3: you are you able to do that? Do you do

1561
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:34,320
Speaker 3: you have time to do that? Do you ever have

1562
01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:37,400
Speaker 3: time away from the kids to be able to enjoy yourself.

1563
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:41,240
Speaker 11: I really don't like every chime going somewhere arriving, they're

1564
01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:43,440
Speaker 11: like right in the car, like they're like my little

1565
01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:44,600
Speaker 11: grope best friends.

1566
01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:49,000
Speaker 5: That's cute. But like you said, Angel, like you're saying,

1567
01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:50,800
Speaker 5: I know that it's really hard, but you're gonna have

1568
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,320
Speaker 5: to try to figure out a small period of window

1569
01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 5: of time where you can be by yourself without your kids.

1570
01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 11: Yeah, and then the worst one of the worst scenario

1571
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:04,200
Speaker 11: case scenariously came up, Like last night I caught him

1572
01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:06,080
Speaker 11: siding up with his excess snap.

1573
01:05:06,760 --> 01:05:09,960
Speaker 5: Okay, so now I just.

1574
01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:13,280
Speaker 11: Feel like I'm unraveling because it feels like it's kind

1575
01:05:13,280 --> 01:05:14,960
Speaker 11: of my fault or what did I do to make

1576
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:16,160
Speaker 11: you feel like you're going to do that?

1577
01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:17,040
Speaker 4: Right?

1578
01:05:17,080 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 11: And you know men, and you know men, they don't

1579
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:21,080
Speaker 11: let it like kicks. They don't like it. They don't

1580
01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:22,640
Speaker 11: like to feel at all.

1581
01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 3: All right, Yeah, I think it's important for you to

1582
01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,680
Speaker 3: let him know how you feel without blaming yourself or

1583
01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:29,360
Speaker 3: blaming him.

1584
01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:32,600
Speaker 4: It's how you feel. And part of it could be postpartum.

1585
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:35,760
Speaker 3: I wouldn't out rule that because that's definitely a real thing.

1586
01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:38,000
Speaker 3: Part of it is that you need to do some

1587
01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:40,400
Speaker 3: things for yourself to make yourself happy, Like what are

1588
01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:43,040
Speaker 3: things that you can do? Who can you see as

1589
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 3: their family you can go with? Can you make sure

1590
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:47,560
Speaker 3: if other people have kids? Can you have a playdate

1591
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:49,880
Speaker 3: so you can have some more adult interaction with people

1592
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:52,880
Speaker 3: outside of your relationship, because sometimes it is unfair to

1593
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:56,200
Speaker 3: burden our significant other with the issues that we're having

1594
01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 3: right right, and you need to find somebody else that

1595
01:05:58,760 --> 01:06:00,800
Speaker 3: you can communicate with, and that I could even be

1596
01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:03,760
Speaker 3: you know, you can have some time for some online therapy.

1597
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,960
Speaker 3: You know, we use better help up here, and that

1598
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:09,160
Speaker 3: definitely helps us as well. But you know, even you

1599
01:06:09,240 --> 01:06:13,480
Speaker 3: acknowledging this, I think you need to make some active things.

1600
01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:15,600
Speaker 3: You know, How can do you have anybody that can

1601
01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:18,479
Speaker 3: watch the kids? Can he watch the kids while maybe

1602
01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:20,560
Speaker 3: you have a girl's night out or a family time,

1603
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:22,720
Speaker 3: or just even a few hours or even sometime by

1604
01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:25,440
Speaker 3: yourself to go to the spot, get a facial, do

1605
01:06:25,520 --> 01:06:27,840
Speaker 3: what you need to do, get a massage, you know,

1606
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:29,240
Speaker 3: to make yourself feel better.

1607
01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 4: How can you make that happen? What city are you in?

1608
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,920
Speaker 11: I calling you for the therapist? South Carolina?

1609
01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:36,320
Speaker 5: LOLd, Okay, South Carolina.

1610
01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:36,600
Speaker 6: Okay.

1611
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,360
Speaker 3: We can probably do something for you and set something up,

1612
01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:41,800
Speaker 3: but I just want you to take some time because

1613
01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:45,280
Speaker 3: you know, I feel like you're blaming yourself for this,

1614
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:47,240
Speaker 3: but it's really the two of you because he has

1615
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:50,520
Speaker 3: to just like you're understanding how difficult it must be

1616
01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:52,480
Speaker 3: for him, he has to understand how difficult it is

1617
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:52,880
Speaker 3: for you.

1618
01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:55,120
Speaker 5: And you're working too, you're at home with kids.

1619
01:06:54,960 --> 01:06:57,200
Speaker 3: Right and he has to realize that's a full time

1620
01:06:57,360 --> 01:06:59,040
Speaker 3: job that does not stop.

1621
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,920
Speaker 11: So so much. And it's like crying out because like

1622
01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:04,479
Speaker 11: it's really a lot.

1623
01:07:05,080 --> 01:07:08,480
Speaker 3: Let's get your information and let's see what we can

1624
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 3: schedule for you so that you can do some fun

1625
01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:14,640
Speaker 3: things or something that is more meditative for yourself, so

1626
01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:17,560
Speaker 3: you can just regroup. And I think for you and him,

1627
01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 3: you know, it's not going to help for him to

1628
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:20,520
Speaker 3: be on his xen for you to feel like that's

1629
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:22,560
Speaker 3: your fault and you drove him to that that's not true.

1630
01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:24,400
Speaker 5: We just go fight him, Angela, we can go fight

1631

1633
01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:33,120
