Speaker 1: to go out and vote, and then I'll be remissed

46
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: if I don't give an opportunity for somebody to express

47
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: the importance of early voting today. Please work on the line.

48
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: Mr Rodney Griffin. Thank you that Mrs McDonald's marketing yourself

50
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:08,239
Speaker 1: of camp. You should go bust out with compliments. So

Speaker 1: this quick profoil. If you're gonna give appreciate you give

53

Speaker 1: it a public service or now and like you did

54
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,160

Speaker 1: Griffin and a lot of people already know me with

56
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 1: the Texas Dettocratic Party and the days this first day

57
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: of early voting, so I vote get it over now.

58
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 1: Here's the key in early voting. You don't have to

59
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,760
Speaker 1: go through any particular precincts just as long as it's

60
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: in the county. For example, in Harris County, any precinct

61
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: in Harris County you can go out and vote and

62
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: on there you're gonna have a constitutions amendments about seven

63
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: of them. But also as important you have candidates. But

64
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: he's local elections for the Harris for the Houston UH

65
00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: Border School Border Trustees, you community to college and you

66
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: how do massourn see that in forth Being County in

67
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: particulars these district council races that are going on that

68
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: and then just remember the adage all politics is local.

69
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: Might make a bad graandmar, but it makes a good

70
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: sense and you go out because those are the postals

71
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: gon't determined more than Washston will. It's important, but they

72
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: will determine how that money is spent. They come for

73
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: Washston and what you getting what you don't care. And

74
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: the last thing I want to say again thank you

75
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: for your time, is the adage is vot think who

76
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: ripping out my man? Stay strong again that the day

77
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 1: is the early voting. I just was gonna be remissed

78
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: if I didn't give them my opportunity to express the

79
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: importance of voting because they're voting and how people vote

80
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: can affect small businesses, and I have to keep in

81
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: lyning with That's what money making conversation is all about.

82
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: It's about laying the guidelines right now. That's why the

83
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: SBA is out there right now giving out these disaster

84
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: relief loans get these small businesses up and running the

85
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 1: game because of the fact that small businesses pay taxes,

86
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: and pay taxes is how we get our system to

87
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: give you running correctly. That's why a couple of months ago,

88
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 1: and I said a couple of months ago, where the

89
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: mayor of Houston was trying to uh figure out a

90
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: way to overcome the the all these flood district by

91
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: creating increasing property taxes on homes that were because he

92
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: realized that we're gonna be an issue that was gonna

93
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: be a problem because of the fact that the model

94
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: damages that were done by Hurricane Harvey. We are recovering

95
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,479
Speaker 1: from Hurricane Harvey. I'm recovering from Hurricane Harvey, and I

96
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: hope that you are recovering from her Hurricane Harvey. Personally.

97
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: Today my show is featuring power couples, husband and wife

98
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 1: teams who are working together and being very successful power couples.

99
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: Power couples, that's a amazing thing. Like my wife, she's

100
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:58,919
Speaker 1: an optometry you know, that's her field. Doctor of eyeballs,

101
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: doctor of eyeballs, that's what she do. And so I

102
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 1: was in the entertainment in writing, so we were totally different.

103
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: So our conversations always lean differently, which means she come

104
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: in talking about eyes, I come in talking about scripts. Now,

105
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: these power couples that we're bringing on today are say, say,

106
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: joined to the hip for the same cause of success,

107
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: which can be interesting. I thought it would be interesting

108
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: to bring them on the show to talk about it

109
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,040
Speaker 1: and discuss how they make it all happen, how they

110
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 1: balance that all out, because I think it's important that

111
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: we get that out there, to say that you can

112
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 1: work together, live together, and sustained happenings both in your

113
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: marriage and your business even though you're participating in the

114
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: same format of success. So that's important that we get

115
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: that out today, and that's why we have power couples

116
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: on the show to day. Also today another little local news,

Speaker 1: I'm happy. I'm happy because May first on this station,

182
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: when it was k Y and D I started money

183
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 1: making conversation. I started I was only gonna do it

184
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: for four weeks, and now we are at October twenty three,

185
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 1: that's more than four weeks. And I feel I found

186
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: a voice. I found there an opportunity to be able

187
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: to change people's lives. And that's what and the and

188
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: the the mantra or the theme or the the about

189
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: of money making change has evolved every month to where

190
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: I feel now I am telling you what I'm going

191
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: to do. My job is to give you the secrets,

192
00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:59,760
Speaker 1: and there are secrets if you don't know. I was

193
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: with my nephew the other day just talking about business,

194
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 1: breaking it down to him, and I can just see it.

195
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 1: And he's been in business for over ten years and

196
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: things I was telling him, he looked at me like

197
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,840
Speaker 1: he had never heard before. And that just lets you know,

198
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: just because you're in business don't mean you know all

199
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: the the small steps of being successful, because a lot

200
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,959
Speaker 1: of things that you are doing may not be right.

201
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: And just because you're making money, the way you're making

202
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 1: money might not be the real money to make long turn.

203
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 1: So the goal in this whole situation is for you

204
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: to win, not only for yourself, for you to win

205
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: for everybody around you, for you to for you to

206
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: do your accounting correctly, for you to hire your employees

207
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: and work them correctly. If you have health plans and

208
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: you own it, then they need to be on that.

209
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 1: You know, some people think that just because you can

210
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: make everybody you hire contract worker. Can't do that. If

211
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: you acquire that they come in at a certain time

212
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: every day, at a certain time, they are employees. So

213
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: these are little things like that that I can tell

214
00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 1: you and help you along the way, and don't feel

215
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 1: bad if you don't know. Don't feel bad if you

216
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: don't know because you don't know it. Guess what called

217
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 1: me and I would tell you how to learn. And

218
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: that's what money making conversations about. It's about helping you learn. Now. Also,

228
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: What's it what you're doing difference showing what you talking

229
00:12:57,280 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: about the laundromat lady was on the call from in Atlanta.

230
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 1: Larder or what I'm doing different? Yea, it's based in

231
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 1: the Latta, Georgia. What she's doing different is it's kind

232
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 1: of like Starbucks meets a laundromat. You know, they're WiFi

233
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: in there. What you don't see the traditional launder mat.

234
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 1: Launder art machines are digitally operator. You can use your

235
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: credit card, which you don't see the traditional laund to matt.

236
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: She also has satellite TV. What you don't see the

237
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: additional laundromat. And also she has a playground area for

238
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 1: kids to play because she renovated an old McDonald's, so

239
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: you know those old McDonald's with those built in playground areas,

240
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,679
Speaker 1: where she held onto that and built the laundron mat

241
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: out of that. So basically she's seeking an opportunity to

242
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: take what she's doing in an impoverished neighborhood. That's what

243
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 1: she wanted to emphasize that she was going back in

244
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: the hood and and before gentrification comes in and takes over,

245
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: she's coming in early. So let people know you can

246
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: create your own wealth and empowerment and become a taxing community.

247
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: If you become a taxing community, when you would generate wealth,

248
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: and then guess what, the police start showing up on

249
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 1: time and they start building buildings around your place of

250
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: business that can be taxed, and that's all this is

251
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: about taxes. Okay, so so so, so that's what she

252
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: was saying. She's not coming the prisons though she's going

253
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: the world. I wasn't. Yes, you know, yes she's going.

314
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: to um be there to support and think strategically and

315
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,520

316
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: gone out and done really incredible things well immediate. You know,

317
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,480
Speaker 1: I've been knowing her for a minute because of the

318
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: fact that hoppercollins when I had Steve over there, Steve

319
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: Harvey being and we had launched out very successfully the

320
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,879
Speaker 1: uh act like a lady. You know, uh think like

321
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,959
Speaker 1: a man series that's over three million copies. We had

322
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 1: the same agent over there. I say edited, I should say, uh,

323
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: Don Davis, and she told me she we have just

324
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:41,160
Speaker 1: she's we have this really talented author about natural hair.

325
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: You know, I'm a ball here, dude. So you really

326
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: you really ain't gonna get my attention real quick, doc,

327
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: And so she said, Rush, could you get them on?

328
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 1: Could you get them on our show? Can you can

329
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,400
Speaker 1: you help promote to get her brand out there? So

330
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,719
Speaker 1: that was the first time I was exposed to her.

331
00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: And it's been a tremendous blessing. I would say, to

332
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,000
Speaker 1: have her in my life and uh and also to

333
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 1: see the changes that she's made two people around the world,

334
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 1: you know, and it's been a journey and it's been amazing.

335
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: And so but she told me that you are the

336
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: inspiration behind Nikki dot com. Talk to me, yes, sir, yeah, yeah,

337
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 1: and really quickly before we start, let me just mention

338
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,199
Speaker 1: that people may not know this, but at that time, you,

339
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: I mean you, you Nikki reach out to you um

340
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: as well, and you would responded and and you just

341
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: were a great um resource for us in general, you know.

342
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: Unrelated to brain promotion and stuff like JA. If people

343
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: don't know that that that something people should know is

344
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 1: that your pro community and um, you know this is

345
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 1: not the first time we talked, and usually when we talked,

346
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: I got questions for you and you're the share and

347
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. I gotta tell you. I got to

348
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 1: and I and I respect both for you know they

349
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: think about it is that people ask me that. And

350
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you. Doing this radio show, I

351
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: didn't realize what I was doing. You know, I would

352
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: just doing stuff out of respect, out of opportunity. You know,

353
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: God has given me knowledge and information that I am.

354
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,119
Speaker 1: I have to share. I have to give it away

355
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: if I take it to the grave. What purpose have

356
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: I served on this planet to just be that selfish?

357
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 1: And so when people ask me questions, and I mean

358
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: on the phone this we could I get like six

359
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:26,640
Speaker 1: or seven calls a weekend from either celebrities, athletes, CEOs

360
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: seeking advice and regular people seeking advice about what could

361
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: I sign this? Could I do this? And then my

362
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 1: wife would look at me, go, you should be charging them.

363
00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:37,480
Speaker 1: You should be charging them. I know why you can

Speaker 1: win the free advice. You should be charging them. I go, baby, everybody,

Speaker 1: she'd be landing that bad man be looking at me. Oh,

366
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: or you you're just gonna just give away some most

367
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: free advice. That's that's that's me, That's how I operate it.

368
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: Can I just be me? And that's why I was

369
00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: just telling telling Nikki on the phone this morning. Could

371
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: tell you. Let me tell you the story. So, um,

372
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: you know, so we've been together for sixteen years. We're

373
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,479
Speaker 1: thirty four years old, and people always here that we've

374
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:12,959
Speaker 1: been together for so long, and they're like, when did

375
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,479
Speaker 1: you guys get together? You know? Um? But really what

376
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: happened was very simple. I went to college and I was,

377
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 1: you know, freshman week in college is ready to meet

378
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: everybody I could, if you know what I meant? Um,

379
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: And I walked past. Uh. Actually this very probably the

380
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: thinnest woman I've ever met him between in my life,

381
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: very pretty while passed me. And you know, we went

382
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: to a small school that only had like a hundred

383
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 1: black folks that in the first place. So I'm like,

384
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: she didn't speak to me, you know, um. And so

385
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 1: I was like the next time I see her she's

386
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 1: gonna talk to me. So you know, we we started

387
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: off as friends for a month and been dating ever since.

388
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 1: Um yeah, sir, um, So you know, do you want

389
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 1: to tell your story about I had an issue with

390
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,360
Speaker 1: my hair. I hated it. I hated my hair when

391
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 1: it was natural. I only loved myself when my hair

392
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: was perfectly bone straight. And Eugene had like a nineteen

393
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 1: nineties four Corsica at the time, So he would take

394
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 1: me to and from St. Louis, Missouri, which was where

395
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: my hair stylus was. That's a three hour trip one way.

396
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,679
Speaker 1: He would take me all the way there. If my

397
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 1: hair fresh school as love, become back to school, only

398
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 1: for it to sweat out again because we didn't even

399
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 1: have air conditioning in the dorm because we went to

400
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,959
Speaker 1: school a million years ago. So it was just it

401
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: was ridiculous. And he pulled me to the side at

402
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: one point and he's like, making your a psychology major.

403
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 1: You're a beautiful girl. You should realize that this is

404
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,440
Speaker 1: an issue. You were just as beautiful with your hair curly,

405
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: you know, as as when it's straight. And I hadn't

406
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 1: ever heard that before, I think verbalized. So it took

407
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,639
Speaker 1: me back for a minute, and then I started researching

408
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 1: and learning how to do my own hair up. And

409
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: to that point I had never even washed my own hair.

410
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: I had always gone to the salon. All I knew

411
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 1: how to do was keep it straight. So it was

412
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,640
Speaker 1: really him that took me to that place of recognition

413
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 1: and that led to my freedom um and eventually the

414
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: freedom of other women. It was also get his idea

415
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: to actually start the blog. After about five or six

416
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: years of intense research and even sharing what I was

417
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: learning real time with members of several forums around the web,

418
00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 1: I got very very popular, very well known in those spaces,

419
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 1: and teams would get annoyed because it's like he had

420
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: woken up this monster in me, and he's like, Mackey,

421
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: you're always on the computer, Like what are you doing?

422
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: And why are we not being paid for this? All day?

423
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 1: We're not talking no more, like oh it's busy. He said,

424
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,239
Speaker 1: why don't you start your own site and let these

425
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 1: women come and you know, talk to you and maybe

426
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: he can make some money. And I'm like, oh, who

427
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 1: would ever want to hear me talk about hair every day?

428
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: And it's me two months to get up my courage

429
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,240
Speaker 1: to launch the website and the rest of history. It

430
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: was all It was Jean's idea to start curly Nicky

431
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 1: dot com and it's been an amazing resource, of amazing

432
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: positive platform for so many women. What exactly is the

433
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:03,080
Speaker 1: little story about my daughter, my daughter, you know, my wife,

434
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 1: and that during it burnt all my daughter's hair out

435
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,360
Speaker 1: her head because it was easy. You know you're going there.

436
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 1: Once you get that perm, you don't have to worry

437
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: about it no more. And we all and it took

438
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: it took about two years to get it back right,

439
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Because but but the reason

440
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,919
Speaker 1: we did it was laziness. I'll be honest with you.

441
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 1: Look cute, but it was laziness because of the fact

442
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: that you could take it in there and at last

443
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: it was just straight. And so now you know, we

444
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: flat iron it out if she wants it done that way.

445
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 1: But we don't do any more perms anymore. And so

446
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: I say that to say, what exactly is natural hair? Right?

447
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 1: So natural hair is you embracing and learning to love

448
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 1: and work with and care for your natural texture at

449
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,479
Speaker 1: roads from your scouts. So actually caring for it as

450
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 1: opposed to just maintaining it, which is the way we

451
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,920
Speaker 1: were hot growing up. Even with your daughter, we knew

452
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: how to name hate our straight hair. I never knew

453
00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 1: how to care for now true hair. So it consists

454
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,680
Speaker 1: of going natural by either big chopping meaning cutting off

455
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 1: all of the relaxed hair and one self group, or

456
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 1: just gradually transitioning, cutting off little bits at a time. Um,

457
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: it sounds like that's maybe what you all do with

458
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 1: your daughter, so natural in that way, and then learning

459
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: to actually style and care for and love the natural

460

463
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,480
Speaker 1: important to know that natural hair is very versatile, so

464
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,880
Speaker 1: you can do lots of different styles. You can blow

465
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,680
Speaker 1: it out, you can wear it straight, you can wear

466
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,400
Speaker 1: to a throw, you can wear it and it twisted out.

467
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 1: I just caution my readers, my hair is straight right now.

468
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,360
Speaker 1: Caution my readers to use proper tools and techniques when

469
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: they're doing these things so that they don't ran back

470
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: in the same place, needing to transition out of damage. Okay,

471
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: don't because I really want to talk about this, because

472
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 1: because the word natural just help me with this because

473
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,639
Speaker 1: I want to get the language. I don't want to

474
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: sound crazy, but you know that were natural means because

475
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 1: you see women with different styles and sometimes it just

476
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: looks bush. It just looks like just hairs on their heads.

477
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,040
Speaker 1: You know, it's just on their head and so so,

478
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,800
Speaker 1: and I want to I want to get some callers there.

479
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,040
Speaker 1: And also because that might be confused that you gotta

480
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: look like that that's natural. But you just told me,

481
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 1: we're sure you can straighten out your hair, you can

482
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,240
Speaker 1: use a hot and that's still the natural hairs. Exactly

483
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,919
Speaker 1: what you're saying is like, there's there's women with relax

484
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 1: hair walking around her looking crazy, noting, not calm, not frush.

485
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 1: There's natural hair women out here looking crazy too. I'm

486
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: talking about natural hair together, you know, like caring for it,

487
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,199
Speaker 1: sawing it. You know, that's a different whole thing. And

488
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 1: that is natural hair. Now natural as in like not

489
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 1: manipulating it. That's not what we're talking about. We're still

490
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 1: talking about I love, I love, I love because you

491
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: know something, I can never have said what she said

492
00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: out of the blast of those social media you know,

493
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: she used to word manipulated, So I would never work manipulated.

494
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: I listened that had look at all crazy. That's what

495
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 1: I'll be looking at. I don't want my daughter had

496
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 1: looking like that because because you know what you're called

497
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: that blasted with the natural look. Was Beyonce daughter blue?

498
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she got blasted because her daughter hair was

499
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: just just there, you know. And and but they were

500
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 1: saying that was the natural look for her daughter to

501
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:32,679
Speaker 1: sport her hair like that. I know that that's the

502
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: that's the eight months year old that kind of popped

503
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,160
Speaker 1: up there in your lives. I see. I know both

504
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: of them. They speak the baby, but they happen, they're happy,

505
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,040
Speaker 1: and so my whole thing is that and dealing with

506
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: these different things. When I come back, I want to

507
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: talk about these different strategic partnerships that you guys are

508
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: created and also the brand build because it's important that

509
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: everybody here, the energy between you know, Eugene and Nikki,

510
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 1: and that's why empowerment is important because you do win.

511
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: You know, I would not be here today if my

512
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 1: wife didn't support me, even I would say that. You know,

513
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 1: when I was on the road telling jokes, she was

514
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 1: in there looking at people eyeballs because she was an optometrys.

515
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: I wouldn't make it no money, and so so I

516
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 1: know that there has to be a partnership in order

517
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: for this to become successful. When we come back, we're

518
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: gonna talk about the strategic partnerships and talk some more.

519
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: And again, I'm just so happy to have both of

520
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,960

Speaker 1: Thanks for having us. Well, it's great to uh. You know,

538
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: I always tell people when you do interviews like this,

539
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: this is like it's part of the process you know

540
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 1: you're doing. You get the word out and if you

541
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: you keep layering opportunity on top of opportunities, and it's

542
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 1: not really like it's gonna be a home run. You know,

543
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: whether you do Steve Harvard Show, you do Doctor as

544
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: you do Rachel Ray, or you do you know, the

545
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 1: view all this stuff. You have to just continue to

546
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 1: keep in motion. It's about the marketing and the brandy.

547
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts when I say something like that,

548
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 1: Eugene um marketing and brandy? You know what's funny Um,

549
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: because if you if you think about what Nick's been doing,

550
00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: this is she's nine years in at this point and

551
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: has more influence now than when she started. And I

552
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: think one of the more interesting things that led to

553
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 1: that was the focus the business model that she pursued.

554
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: I mean, she she ran a consumer based or consumer

555
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: focused business model, which in case you know, anybody was listening.

556
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: That's not an easy way to make money, right, because

557
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: the commodity you're selling is objective information. And so with

558
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: Nikki it was you know, if I so when I

559
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: take consumer base, I say, the core idea is that

560
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: however you package and sell your product, does not compromise

561
00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: the integrity of that product in a way that would

562
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: hurt the consumer. And so really what she did was

563
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: focused on putting on high quality content that spoke to

564
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: upperly mobile you know, ethnic primarily black women, UM, and

565
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: pursuing an integrity based model in terms of the things

566
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: she promoted and in particular things that she passed on

567
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 1: promoting UM and the and the various moneys she left

568
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: on the table, and she left a lot of play

569
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: on the table. I witnessed it myself, UM, and was broke,

570
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,560
Speaker 1: Like you were like just similar to the story you

571
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 1: were doing. It meant something to me. UM. But you know,

572
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 1: she put on that high quality content and really offered

573
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: a value proposition for the for the brands that wanted

574
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,720
Speaker 1: to advertise, and for the consumers that needed the objective

575
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 1: information that made sense. UM. The brands got a concentrated,

576
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: you know, collection of their potential consumers in one place

577
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:28,000
Speaker 1: and a positive pro black um community. Um, the consumers

578
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,840
Speaker 1: got objective information, and we were also putting on content.

579
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 1: You know, Nikki particular was really good at this putting

580
00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,720
Speaker 1: on really high quality, you know, promotional content. So we

581
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 1: did things like take our audience to the Video Music

582
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: Awards and let the meet Kevin Hart before he went

583
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 1: on stage, right, UM let them. You know, we did

584
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 1: interviews with more than a hundred black female celebrities who

585
00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: talks exclusively about their hair and the struggles of being

586
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 1: a black woman in the media and dealing with their hair.

587
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,680
Speaker 1: We change, um the live events model from a hair

588
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: show based model, which has really been was a consumer

589
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, which was a was a kind of professional

590
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,640
Speaker 1: inside industry event, but you know the big hair shows

591
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: now for her absolute hair show things like that, and

592
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: really turned those into consumer based events where women really

593
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: got together in lounges and bars and spot products and

594
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: had community. And you know, manufacturers really want to get

595
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 1: in on that. So I think, you know, focusing you know,

596
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: looking for opportunities to make money while without compromising the

597
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,920
Speaker 1: core products, which was community that she was selling. UM

598
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 1: is the way she is the reason why she's relevant today,

599
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: But that would be my guests. Honestly, it's a phenomenon.

600
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 1: I don't know why she's you know, why she's been

601
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: so important to black women, But I'm happy about it.

602
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: I'm happy that we're able to do something, you know,

603
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: great for the community. I think cool. This is my

Speaker 1: segred way to the acknowledge me of her success. Black

Speaker 1: What's the next steps with you? Nikki? You know I

613
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,320
Speaker 1: and I have lots of ideas for what the next

614
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: step is. However, I'm also I believe that I'm being

615
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: um like divinely guided. I did not know that curly

616
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: Nikki dot com was going to become what it became.

617
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 1: You know, I was doing it because it felt good.

618
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: Um And I believe that money comes, like you know,

619
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: that supply comes when you're doing something that is coming

620
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: from that place. So you're providing a service for people.

621
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: I believe that I'm being used in many ways, and

622
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see what the next iteration of

623
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: that is. You know, I still love talking about hair,

624
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,960
Speaker 1: but I have other passions that I would like to

625
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 1: flush out a bit more. I'll be calling you soon

626
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:55,760
Speaker 1: to talk about that. Yes, yes, and fussing at me.

627
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,200
Speaker 1: But I love being on the shows. I have another

628
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: series of Doctor Odds appearances coming up. You know. It's

629
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: it's really fun. But I know that I have more

630
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 1: to offer to and that's that's just finding your voice

631
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 1: and that and that think that's really key. It'sn't finding

632
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,760
Speaker 1: your voice and just like Max, he got a voice.

633
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Yeah and uh. And so

634
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: the thing about it tell us about some of the

635
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,240
Speaker 1: some of the upcoming projects. I see the Lorial sponsors books.

636
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 1: You already mentioned the Doctor Arts appearances. UM, just just

637
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,319
Speaker 1: tell us what's going in the pipeline right now, right.

638
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 1: So the Lorios book was actually very very special. I

639
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 1: actually UM was offered another book by HarperCollins, but decided

640
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,440
Speaker 1: to offer this book to the audience for free as

641
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: a way to give back. Obviously, I made money because

642
00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 1: you know, money was a really awesome promotional tool, even

643
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: though the book itself was not promotion. The book was

644
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,160
Speaker 1: an actually real book. There was no you know, commercials

645
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 1: in my book. It was all my words. Nothing was bought.

646
00:34:54,520 --> 00:35:00,880
Speaker 1: It was amazing mutually beneficial partnership and still available for

647
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: free right now on www dot dark and lovely dot com.

648
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: Backslash Nicky Walpin. Also, I have been trying to convince

649
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 1: my husband for the last four years since we moved

650
00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: to DC, to direct his full attention on digital marketing,

651
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: and he's finally done that. This year has been a major, major,

652
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,239
Speaker 1: major ship, a major change, and he's gonna Yeah. So

653
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,879
Speaker 1: I actually left teaching. I was teaching that I taught

654
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:30,120
Speaker 1: at Penn State for three years. I taught political science,

655
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 1: and I taught at American University down here and uh

656
00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 1: d C, I taught statistics. So I'm also a quantitative

657
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: methodologist by training, and um, you know, and I love teaching.

658
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,280
Speaker 1: I love teaching. I love everything about working with students.

659
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: Hated everything about the industry itself, so, you know, so

660
00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 1: she finally, you know, conversal market Yeah. And also and

661
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: while this was happening, you know, we would we would

662
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 1: whenever I had time off, which was every winner and

663
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 1: every summer, we would do our big marketing kind of initiatives. So,

664
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:58,799
Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna do what I'm queshing out my

665
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: team right now when we're I have a selag group

666
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: of of clients, mostly black on startup business is actually

667
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 1: here in the dmz um that I work with now.

668
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna open this up and do search engine optimization.

669
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: All the people that are in the marketing world know

670
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:13,400
Speaker 1: this stuff and this is all well worn territory at

671
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 1: this point. But that's what I'm doing. I'm going full

672
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: time in the marketing and um, I'm excited. And you

673
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 1: know what's funny, I'm scared and that's the best time. Well.

674
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: I always tell people when you are afraid, it's the

675
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 1: right move because you're being pushed out of your conference

676
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 1: zone and I'm here. People use the words fear, people

677
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 1: use the words selfish incorrectly as far as I'm concerned,

678
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:39,759
Speaker 1: because you have to be selfish to to deny other

679
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 1: things in life in order to be successful. I know

680
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:45,759
Speaker 1: for a fact that I selfishly, you know, when my

681
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,359
Speaker 1: family was living used, I selfishly was living in New York.

682
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 1: I was selfishly living in l A and denied my

683
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,280
Speaker 1: daughter and opportunity to your dad on a daily basis.

684
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: But I was there as much as I could. But

685
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,359
Speaker 1: I knew the bigger upside was it if I could

686
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: keep success, it could change our lives financially. And it

687
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,359
Speaker 1: did you know every time when I moved to New York,

688
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: I was afraid. I moved to Chicago with the talk shows,

689
00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,520
Speaker 1: afraid I moved to l A. I was afraid because

690
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:15,680
Speaker 1: there's so much uncertainty and people people just deny themselves

691
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: so much from fear. They stay at regular jobs and

692
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 1: they don't make them because they're afraid to find a

693
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 1: new job or somebody may not harm or they might

694
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: go the new job and they might close, or they

695
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 1: might get fired, or they don't know anybody over there.

696
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: So that's that's the part of the game that I

697
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:37,000
Speaker 1: really respect in my relationship with Nikki over the years.

698
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: And here and you're going out in this new digital platform,

699
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 1: is that called me my friend? I'm gonna I'm gonna

700
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 1: say my friend because that's what I built this show on.

701
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: And I may have some opportunities going on because I

702
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 1: just a lot of people knowing the media. I just

703
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:54,520
Speaker 1: closed this UH Air Force Extreme Air National Guard uh

704
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 1: deal for three years when handling all the branding and

705
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:03,880
Speaker 1: marketing and tensing and trying for fifty states. Yes, our

706
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: headquarters are gonna win. Our headquarters will be in the

707
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 1: DC market. And so so it's important that you you

708
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: get that digital thing together and reach out to me.

709
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,400
Speaker 1: And that's all this is about. It's about gathering information

710
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 1: and and and combining it. So so this started out

711
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 1: as a casual conversation now as a money making conversation,

712
00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 1: and that's what it's all. That's great to hear, you know,

713
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: talking to somebody like you. I mean, I think the

Speaker 1: first time I talked to you, you are already too

715
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,480

00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: might have been going things like you know, So to

717
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,760
Speaker 1: hear somebody say, you know who was at a completely

718
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: different level than you would say, Hey, you know, I'm

719
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 1: nervous or I'm scared to do things, and really to

00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,880

Speaker 1: It's always a good thing. Well, I want to I

770
00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 1: know I wanted to. Uh. I mentioned in the intro

771
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:42,800
Speaker 1: about small time crook gang member, state trooper, Air Force

772
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,799
Speaker 1: veteran and world right now chess champion. Can we can

773
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:48,919
Speaker 1: we go through each layer so we can tell people

774
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 1: about this journey as to how we're on the phone today.

775
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: Where are you? Where are you originally from? Where are

776
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 1: you originally from? Imham, Alabama? I was. I was in

777
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 1: a family. But I have I have twelve brothers and twelves.

778
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: I mean six brothers and six sisters, so I have

779
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:08,359
Speaker 1: it's thirteen of us altogether. My sister had a child,

780
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: so it was about fourteen of us in the house

781
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 1: at one time. And a guy came to me and said, um,

782
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,520
Speaker 1: if you want to have all these goodies that I

783
00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 1: got here came into me a box of honey buns

784
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 1: and snacks and stuff like, Davia, if you want to

785
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: have this, you got to do what we say do

786
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:24,800
Speaker 1: And I said, okay, I'm in. So I was somewhat

787
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,520
Speaker 1: of a gang that walk around breaking in Greg cookie

788
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 1: trucks and stealing snacks out of him to provide for

789
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,280
Speaker 1: the family at home and come home with a boxer

790
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 1: all kind of goodies. And uh, I was somewhat the

791
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: hero for the family. Now is that the small time

792
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,359
Speaker 1: crook or the gang member? Which one is that? That's

793
00:42:41,360 --> 00:42:44,399
Speaker 1: the phone, that's the phone. That's a combination of both,

794
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: that's both. I was following, following the wrong people, doing

795
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:51,319
Speaker 1: the wrong things, and uh, making some bad choices. Now,

796
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: how long did you make those bad choices? And who

797
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: snapped you out of those bad choices? Well, a white

798
00:42:56,960 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 1: teacher by the name of James Edge pulled me to

799
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 1: the side and taught me chest and kind of broke

800
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 1: the cycle over of taking and changed the cycle from

801
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 1: taking the giving and serving other people. So he taught

802
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 1: me chess and the think things through. Don't do the

803
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,840
Speaker 1: first thing to pop in your head, right, and that's what.

804
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 1: That's what that's one of the true components of chest right, Yes, sir, okay, guy,

805
00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:20,840
Speaker 1: I think things through because one moon could call you

806
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 1: the game. Okay, now, okay, we've got people out there.

807
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:29,720
Speaker 1: What about dominoes? What about checkers? Well, checkers is okay,

808
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 1: but it's not as complicated and complex. Life is complex.

809
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,919
Speaker 1: So Chess and Mike are like in that. You got

810
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: black and white checkers. There's no queen on the board.

811
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,320
Speaker 1: Chest The queen is on the board, and she's seven

812
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:47,959
Speaker 1: times more powerful than the king, just like in life. Absolutely, absolutely,

813
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:49,879
Speaker 1: And when they want to want to know, they want

814
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,719
Speaker 1: to know what women shopping, they want to know what

815
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 1: television shows women are watching. They want to know what

816
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 1: they're buying, what are they thinking? The world is run

817
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,680
Speaker 1: and make all the decisions. Absolutely, So that's what the

818
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 1: whole thought process of chess comes in. Okay. So so

819
00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,720
Speaker 1: now you're randing this this gentleman, he changed your life,

820
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: taught you chess. Now, how did you become a state trooper? I? Uh,

821
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 1: like I say, I became the state Alabama state troop

822
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 1: but applied and uh I never forget because I said

823
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: it was six hundred people took the test and instructor said, listen,

824
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 1: six hundred you gots taking the test. We only got

825
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 1: to hire a hundred. So we're gonna take the the

826
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 1: top how to test scores and we're gonna work from there.

827
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: So I tell kids all the time, make sure you

828
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: get the education because if you don't, if you don't

829
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,960
Speaker 1: go high on FAM, guess what are you out. So

830
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: you got to be able to provide, you know, and

831
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: do well and score well. So I, you know, I

832
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:51,879
Speaker 1: was like, I think I was number third or three,

833
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,520
Speaker 1: So I was in so so so we went from

834
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 1: a small time crook slash gang member. Now you're a

835
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: state trooper. Now military came in your life, Air Force veteran.

836
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 1: How important was that role? Well, the Air Force is

837
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:10,120
Speaker 1: very important because you know, you've got to serve our

838
00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: country and we've got to try to do what we

839
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 1: can to help others, and the military and the State

840
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:24,080
Speaker 1: troopers basically saying service protect. But I really, really, I'm

841
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 1: really expired by what I do. Now, what you're teaching

842
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,800
Speaker 1: young people, brains before bullets and think it out and

843
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: don't shoot it at That's the main message I want

844
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 1: to get out to our young people. That there's a

845
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: better way to choose peace instead of violence. But all

846
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,799
Speaker 1: that's part of your journey though. That's why I wanted

847
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 1: to make sure that you know, because you know, you're

848
00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 1: such a good speaker and you're such a good motivator.

849
00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 1: I just wanted to hear people on my show that

850
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,279
Speaker 1: I brought the back to tell your story, because that

851
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 1: story the locks now why you have this passion, why

852
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 1: you can because as a state trooper, you've seen violence,

853
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: You've seen that journey, that note that did in journey

854
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:03,040
Speaker 1: for so many youths that you're trying to save today.

855
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: And then when you went into the military, that was

856
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 1: a great option, but that still is tied to violence.

857
00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 1: And so those two levels focused you now to who

858
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:17,439
Speaker 1: you are are world right now, world renow Chess player. Yeah, well,

859
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:20,760
Speaker 1: and mostly what I do is I teach children. Chess

860
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 1: is about studying what works. If you if you study

861
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:27,879
Speaker 1: what works, okay, and if you do what works, you'll

862
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:30,239
Speaker 1: you'll win. You'll win the game of life. But you've

863
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 1: got to study will work. That's all chess. The pattern recognition.

864
00:46:33,640 --> 00:46:36,760
Speaker 1: Once you know the pattern, you can play, you can prepare,

865
00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:39,960
Speaker 1: you could position and you predict, but Chess is nothing

866
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,919
Speaker 1: but recognizing patterns. Learn from every decision that you make,

867
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 1: and don't make the same mistake twice. Make the same

868
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: mistake twice, because who don't make the same mistake twice,

869
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:54,799
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Because chess won't allow you that option. Well,

870
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: you gotta learn. If you don't learn, if you get

871
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 1: checkmated on this game, then don't do the same move.

872
00:47:00,680 --> 00:47:03,360
Speaker 1: You know, gonna make a smart move like watching the movie.

873
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: You watch a movie, you know how it ends, right,

874
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:11,239
Speaker 1: So hey, we ain't doing that. So we ain't getting

875
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,279
Speaker 1: in that cab. That cab hit the calle and that

876
00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:16,239
Speaker 1: movie ain't doing that. Now, now this all led to

877
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:21,760
Speaker 1: your foundation be someone correct? Yes, now now it's that

878
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 1: I hope you see what I'm doing with this journey

879
00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 1: because I want to tell your story, you know, you know,

880
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,960
Speaker 1: because I know you quickly just motivates trying to come

881
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 1: up with but we gotta we got another break. We're

882
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,759
Speaker 1: gonna do all that too. But I try to with

883
00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 1: the show now is have a conversation with everybody. And

884
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 1: in that conversation that you have with a person like

885
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:45,359
Speaker 1: you, you you know, with a brand so unique and chance

886
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 1: is a unique brand, and a lot of people don't

887
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:51,759
Speaker 1: understand why. There's value and business in it and education

888
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:55,399
Speaker 1: in it and life in it. And be Someone. It's

889
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:58,399
Speaker 1: the focals. It is the basis of why you are

890
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:02,400
Speaker 1: who you are, correct exactly. And chance is the game

891
00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:06,000
Speaker 1: of life because it's black and white and black and

892
00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:08,520
Speaker 1: white as the same. Don't play the blame game, play

893
00:48:08,560 --> 00:48:11,160
Speaker 1: the win, and it teaches you this is powerful lesson.

894
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: You have everything you need to succeed. You have your mind,

895
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,960
Speaker 1: you have your ability, you have your talents, and you

896
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 1: have time. You could do. No one's better than you,

897
00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,920
Speaker 1: and you know better than anyone else. Use what you

898
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 1: have to get what you want. This chest that's like

899
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,440
Speaker 1: and that's what that now? When when did you find

900
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: be someone? I found to be something. In one and

901
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,319
Speaker 1: May May twenty and two thousand, seven people were shot

902
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,919
Speaker 1: on the robbery for two thousand dollars in Queen, New York.

903
00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 1: And I said to myself, evil prevails when good people

904
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,799
Speaker 1: do nothing. So I started a crime prevention program called

905
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 1: be Someone May twenty May May twenty four or two

906
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: thousand to teach people to think it out stid of

907
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 1: shoot it out, and also to teach people to cash

908
00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:57,719
Speaker 1: in knowledge, attitudes, skills and have it. Get this cash

909
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,520
Speaker 1: because once you get this cast, this cash is king. Wow.

910
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,279
Speaker 1: We're gonna be right back with more of my man,

911
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,719
Speaker 1: Mr Hudson, call him checkmate, talking about life changing, using

912
00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 1: the using the game. And it may be simple to

913
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,040
Speaker 1: others and may be complicated to others, but it's a

914
00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 1: game of life that teaches you don't make the same mistake.

915
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,840

00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:21,719
Speaker 1: You said something I'll never forget you said. You know

977
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:24,400
Speaker 1: what you people pay you to use your mind, and

978
00:52:24,520 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 1: you use your mind to starve problems. And I honor

979
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:29,720
Speaker 1: you for saying that because that's basically what I'm about

980
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,359
Speaker 1: teaching young people to get your head in the game.

981
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:34,880
Speaker 1: The only thing that can take you to your goals

982
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:39,440
Speaker 1: your head. And that's absolutely true. And that's why. You know.

983
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 1: The thing I like about our conversations is that you

984
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,920
Speaker 1: know you are. You are a motivator, and you're a

985
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,799
Speaker 1: person that stays in front of people. Always tell people

986
00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:52,439
Speaker 1: to be successful or to make your competition aware who

987
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 1: you are. I always tell people say it's a it's

988
00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: a driving technique of stand in front of somebody's bumper.

989
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,320
Speaker 1: See if your car is in on the bumper of

990
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 1: your competitor, that means you're in front of them and

991
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:05,960
Speaker 1: they got to figure out how to get around you.

992
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,799
Speaker 1: So your coold goal the motivation is to stay in

993
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,399
Speaker 1: front of them. And so that's what you've done, you know,

994
00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 1: whether whether inviting you out to the Steve Harvey camp

995
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,080
Speaker 1: or seeing you in New York and you said, Rashan,

996
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:20,360
Speaker 1: you're always telling me, Rashan, I'm doing to this, Rashan,

997
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 1: I can do this for you. You're always pitching, pitching

998
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:27,799
Speaker 1: positive angles because in the end, you're you're teaching. You're

999
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 1: teaching things to us that we would ignore if you

1000
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 1: didn't pitch your tours. You know, you know what I'm saying,

1001
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:37,479
Speaker 1: because because you know, chess is a game that few

1002
00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:40,640
Speaker 1: people recognize outside of it being a board game, and

1003
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:44,400
Speaker 1: you're telling us, Rashawn, stop the madness. Chess is a

1004
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 1: game of life. Board playing on the board is just

1005
00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:50,279
Speaker 1: one of the techniques. But if you take those same

1006
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,399
Speaker 1: principles and apply to your small business, if you take

1007
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: the same principle and apply to your if you're a

1008
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 1: student in college, if you take those same principles and

1009
00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:04,799
Speaker 1: apply in your relationship, it all works correct exactly, and

1010
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:07,879
Speaker 1: you know that you have everything you need to win.

1011
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:10,919
Speaker 1: You know, don't play the blame game, play the win

1012
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 1: you have. You know you can do this. You can

1013
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,240
Speaker 1: do it here and you can do it now. Surround

1014
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,319
Speaker 1: your stuff around people who can elevate your game. If

00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:20,640
Speaker 1: On the here he acts like we ain't own National

1104
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:23,120
Speaker 1: or nothing like that. So I gotta gotta clear up

1105
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 1: a lot of his conversation. Let everybody you know, you know,

1106

Speaker 1: Challenge To Texas NBC, child Too in New York City

1108
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:40,560
Speaker 1: in challen To in Atlanta, Georgia is CBS. So people

1109
00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 1: just don't know you should be throwing out that information.

1110
00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:45,680
Speaker 1: I mean, ABC is in Atlanta, Georgia. So when you

1111
00:59:45,720 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 1: say all these success stories, and I'm gonna just tell

1112
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,160
Speaker 1: people this, failure is the best motivation in the world.

1113
00:59:52,680 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 1: But what you cannot do with failure is accepted as

1114
00:59:55,800 --> 00:59:59,600
Speaker 1: a final choice, your final option, and whenever I talk

1115
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:03,320
Speaker 1: to you, and this is about businesses that open wrong.

1116
01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,080
Speaker 1: They fail because they don't do what they're supposed to.

1117
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:08,160
Speaker 1: They don't plan like you're talking about in the game.

1118
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:10,320
Speaker 1: And I'm just letting you guys know that when I

Speaker 1: you're talking about chess. They've got nothing to do with me.

1121
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 1: It does. It's about planning. It's about seeing the thoughts out,

1122
01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:24,240
Speaker 1: not making the first move, thinking through the thought process,

1123
01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:28,240
Speaker 1: understanding that these patterns for success have to be worked out,

1124
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 1: they have to be detailed. If you fail, don't walk

1125
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:34,120
Speaker 1: away thinking it's the end of the world. That is

01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: smart before that. You had insurance. Oh yes, most definitely

1216
01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:36,000
Speaker 1: I had insurance. Anybody, if you're going into a business,

1217
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:39,680
Speaker 1: you want to protect your assets, you know, And that's

1218
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:41,880
Speaker 1: one thing that I wanted to do is to take

1219
01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:46,960
Speaker 1: my access assets. Had insurance, which uh I was covering

1220
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:50,439
Speaker 1: on that. So I'm just at the waiting period right now.

1221
01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:53,760
Speaker 1: Uh you know how my case is going to resolve

1222
01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:56,640
Speaker 1: at the end. But also but you're not waiting. That's

1223
01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,880
Speaker 1: why you also apply for the SBA Disaster loan. Correct,

1224
01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:03,680
Speaker 1: yesdir I did. I thought for that because I didn't

1225
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,520
Speaker 1: know this this this process is gonna take this long.

1226
01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 1: Uh just took some lester steps. Uh just just think

1227
01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:16,000
Speaker 1: taste just to give my process lowing, because it's not

1228
01:06:16,360 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 1: I'll just be sitting here waiting and nothing never happened. Yeah,

1229
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:23,000
Speaker 1: So it means being proactive is the key in this conversation. Correct,

1230
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:26,280
Speaker 1: almost definitely. You have to. You can't just stop and

1231
01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:30,400
Speaker 1: just give up. You got to keep on pushing, uh

1232
01:06:30,760 --> 01:06:33,120
Speaker 1: because you have people out there that's uh looking forward

1233
01:06:33,160 --> 01:06:35,280
Speaker 1: to who wash your products, So you've got to keep

1234
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:38,680
Speaker 1: on supplying that. Well, let's talk about that product man

1235

Speaker 1: want to before we even get into detail about the book,

1422
01:17:01,000 --> 01:17:04,160
Speaker 1: I'll just read this this statement that I pulled offline

1423
01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:08,960
Speaker 1: about the book. The sag of Love, Loyalty, and Crime

1424
01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:12,599
Speaker 1: continues in the next explosive book in the Cartel series,

1425
01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:16,320
Speaker 1: from the minds of New York Times bestselling authors Ashley

1426
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:19,600
Speaker 1: and to Quaalus. After the Tragic and Blooded into the

Speaker 1: Cartel's reign, Carter is forced into isolation to evade to law.

01:17:24,240 --> 01:17:27,120
Speaker 1: With his wife facing federal charges and his dear brother

1429
01:17:27,240 --> 01:17:30,439
Speaker 1: six ft under, Carter has never been more alone, his

1430
01:17:30,600 --> 01:17:33,760
Speaker 1: empire at his feet, and there's no idea how to

1431
01:17:33,840 --> 01:17:36,640
Speaker 1: rebuild his kingdom. The only thing that is certain is

1432
01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:38,160
Speaker 1: that he has to stay out of the way and

1433
01:17:38,200 --> 01:17:40,719
Speaker 1: off the radar of the fads until he can, Until

1434
01:17:40,800 --> 01:17:42,960
Speaker 1: he can figure out how to get his lady out

1435
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:46,360
Speaker 1: of prison. Her freedom is guaranteed. Provided car to help

1436
01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,160
Speaker 1: create and distribute a drug that would take the streets

1437
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:53,240
Speaker 1: by storm. Rubbing elbows with the most notorious, ruthless leaders

1438

Speaker 1: of the underworld will get him what he wants, but

1439
01:17:56,040 --> 01:17:58,479
Speaker 1: he can win it. But he doesn't know whether he

1440
01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:02,479
Speaker 1: can win the game of murder or money. That's what

Speaker 1: they was on me. I was actually surfing the undercover

1453
01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:54,120
Speaker 1: agent for about two weeks. So um yeah, it was

1454
01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:56,040
Speaker 1: the open play for the underplay. They were setting me

1455
01:18:56,160 --> 01:19:00,400

1457
01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:08,479
Speaker 1: he talked his package in my bushes and I thought,

1458
01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:10,280
Speaker 1: so I went and got it out of the bushes

1459
01:19:10,320 --> 01:19:12,960
Speaker 1: before the police searched them, and then I called him.

1460
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:16,400
Speaker 1: We had a mutual friend, right right, right, It's just

1461
01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:21,160
Speaker 1: like a book. We actually used this, I know, you know,

1462
01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:25,519
Speaker 1: I know all that get to my interview. I got

1463
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:27,519
Speaker 1: my research on both of y'all. I'm not gonna come

1464
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:28,960
Speaker 1: on this show and act like I don't know who

1465
01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:34,400
Speaker 1: I'm talking to. Man, we appreciated my brother. But listen, Maye,

1466
01:19:34,439 --> 01:19:37,559
Speaker 1: just it started the union that would last. Well. We

1467
01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:41,800
Speaker 1: we've been together with sixteen years. Man, Um, I was

1468
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:44,679
Speaker 1: running from the cops, man, and she literally saved my life. Man.

1469
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:48,000
Speaker 1: She you know, she threw I'm sorry when I threw

1470
01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:50,000
Speaker 1: what I had in the bushes. Man, she she picked

1471
01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:51,719
Speaker 1: it up and she put it up for me for later.

1472
01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:54,880
Speaker 1: So you know, we're from from Michigan, Rashaan Man, So

1473
01:19:54,960 --> 01:19:57,960
Speaker 1: that means, you know, loyalty has to be earned. But

1474
01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:01,559
Speaker 1: I don't love this girl because within the first day

1475
01:20:01,560 --> 01:20:03,639
Speaker 1: I met her, she showed me loyalty and that's something

1476
01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:06,760
Speaker 1: that I wasn't used to. You know that that kind

1477
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:10,960
Speaker 1: of started the friendship and that friendship maturity into a relationship,

1478
01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:14,760
Speaker 1: and then later that relationship Um turned into a partnership.

1479
01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:19,799
Speaker 1: Man together, you know, we were families. You know. It's interesting,

1480
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:23,320
Speaker 1: you know that because you know, you guys from Flip Michigan,

1481
01:20:23,479 --> 01:20:26,120
Speaker 1: that's basically an inner city, and they come out of

1482
01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:29,040
Speaker 1: that with with with a with a strong literary sense,

1483
01:20:29,360 --> 01:20:31,479
Speaker 1: you know, because I. You know, I tell people like,

1484
01:20:31,800 --> 01:20:33,320
Speaker 1: you know, when I came out of high school, you know,

1485
01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:36,479
Speaker 1: I was an honor student, and I took all honors classes,

1486
01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:39,280
Speaker 1: but I didn't really care about English. And I remember

1487
01:20:39,280 --> 01:20:41,360
Speaker 1: when I went to college, I had to take remedial

1488
01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:44,639
Speaker 1: English to qualify because I didn't care. I didn't care.

1489
01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:46,679
Speaker 1: I didn't know the subject her now and I didn't

1490
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:48,960
Speaker 1: know the sequence of what would make a sentence and

1491
01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:52,120
Speaker 1: a preposition and all those things because I didn't realize

1492
01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:54,960
Speaker 1: the importance of it. And that's why, that's why it's

1493
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:57,599
Speaker 1: important when I hear you guys in along the way.

1494
01:20:57,680 --> 01:21:02,000
Speaker 1: In in middle school, english and literacy was important because,

1495
01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:04,080
Speaker 1: like I said, when I was in middle school, I read,

1496
01:21:04,600 --> 01:21:08,120
Speaker 1: you know, I read I read uh uh Lord of

1497
01:21:08,120 --> 01:21:10,040
Speaker 1: the Rings when I was in middle school, and that

1498
01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:13,240
Speaker 1: book was like nine hundred pages. And so I I

1499
01:21:13,320 --> 01:21:16,200
Speaker 1: say that to say that you guys play an important role.

1500
01:21:16,280 --> 01:21:17,640
Speaker 1: And that's one of the reasons I brought you on

1501
01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:20,960
Speaker 1: the show and I hopefully become friends and just constantly

1502
01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 1: communicated on a regular basis, because it's important that reading

1503
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:32,000
Speaker 1: really is fundamental, man, absolutely absolutely, and telling stories that

1504
01:21:32,080 --> 01:21:33,960
Speaker 1: you guys are telling. That's why I want to let

1505
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:36,760
Speaker 1: everybody know that, yeah, I'm a sitcom writer. You guys

1506
01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:40,720
Speaker 1: are true storytellers. And that's really important because when I

1507
01:21:40,760 --> 01:21:42,720
Speaker 1: was reading the book from the opening when they're on

1508
01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:44,920
Speaker 1: the private jet and you know, I'm not gonna tell

1509
01:21:44,920 --> 01:21:47,240
Speaker 1: a story because we were trying to sell books. We're

1510
01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:50,080
Speaker 1: not trying to give away the book, you know, you know,

1511
01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,639
Speaker 1: but all those things I'm just telling you guys, when

1512
01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:54,800
Speaker 1: you read their books and they got they got an

1513
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:57,840
Speaker 1: interesting style because they do transitional time frames. You know,

1514
01:21:58,280 --> 01:22:00,200
Speaker 1: you've been this time period, and then they're a key

1515
01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:03,799
Speaker 1: back to to tell you the journey how that moment

1516
01:22:03,840 --> 01:22:07,160
Speaker 1: came up to this point and and it's really interesting.

1517
01:22:07,439 --> 01:22:11,719
Speaker 1: How did you guys develop your writing style? Um? Well,

1518
01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:15,200
Speaker 1: I firmly believe that being a writer, you can't be

1519
01:22:15,240 --> 01:22:17,880
Speaker 1: a writer without being a reader first. So I first

1520
01:22:17,880 --> 01:22:21,840
Speaker 1: state was actually out of Borders about a Borders book stores. Right,

1521
01:22:22,439 --> 01:22:24,599
Speaker 1: that's a prerecordisite. You have to fall in love with

1522
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:28,840
Speaker 1: storytelling in general, and through doing that, we both really

1523
01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:31,280
Speaker 1: love to read as young kids. So through doing that,

1524
01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:35,000
Speaker 1: we wanted to write stories that people could relate to,

1525
01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:39,679
Speaker 1: that people could find in just okay, when we were

1526
01:22:39,720 --> 01:22:42,040
Speaker 1: young there were no stories or characters that looked like us,

1527
01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:44,160
Speaker 1: that sounded like us, or that we're from the areas

1528
01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:47,519
Speaker 1: that we wanted to change that landscape in literature. So

1529
01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:51,519
Speaker 1: now we're writing, we're forty books in. We've contributed space

1530
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:55,599
Speaker 1: on the shelves by African American people for African American people.

1531
01:22:55,800 --> 01:22:59,760
Speaker 1: Right right, I was reading this article. I've took some

1532
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:02,000
Speaker 1: be I thought there's some very important articles. There's just

1533
01:23:02,040 --> 01:23:06,880
Speaker 1: New York Times magazine article written in urban fiction or

1534
01:23:06,960 --> 01:23:11,200
Speaker 1: streetlet has been snubbed by the publishing industry and scorned

1535
01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:14,760
Speaker 1: by the black intellectuals. Yet these authors may just be

1536
01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:21,080
Speaker 1: the most successful literary couple in America. So when I

1537
01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:23,200
Speaker 1: write that, when I say that because I know as

1538
01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:27,280
Speaker 1: a writer, as an entertainer, people can make judgment on

1539
01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:29,960
Speaker 1: people and don't even know the the end goal and

1540
01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:34,400
Speaker 1: end goal is about writing creative concepts and storylines that

1541
01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:39,120
Speaker 1: are relatable. Isn't that correct? Yeah? Absolutely? Man? See is

1542
01:23:39,560 --> 01:23:41,479
Speaker 1: I love to use that analogy like the roles that

1543
01:23:41,520 --> 01:23:46,760
Speaker 1: grows from concrete. When a person or a black intellectual

1544
01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,840
Speaker 1: looks at this roles and they see all the torn

1545
01:23:50,040 --> 01:23:53,200
Speaker 1: pedals and the thorns, they look at it as that

1546
01:23:53,680 --> 01:23:57,479
Speaker 1: like this ugly rose, but they do not take into

1547
01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,000
Speaker 1: the acount of tenacity of that role to grow through

1548
01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:03,280
Speaker 1: that concrete. And it's a reason why it has those

1549
01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:06,320
Speaker 1: broken pedals and thorns. And that's how we look at

1550
01:24:06,360 --> 01:24:10,960
Speaker 1: our style of writing. They look at it like it's

1551
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:15,160
Speaker 1: something that's but needs a literature, but it's not. It's

1552
01:24:15,200 --> 01:24:17,800
Speaker 1: where we came from. We're products of our environment and

1553
01:24:17,880 --> 01:24:20,920
Speaker 1: we made it beautiful. Like at first they talked about it,

1554
01:24:21,160 --> 01:24:25,519
Speaker 1: but then they began to like give us accolaides and

1555
01:24:25,600 --> 01:24:28,519
Speaker 1: honor what we was doing. That was the plan from

1556
01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:31,479
Speaker 1: the beginning. Man, there you go. We kept on putting

1557
01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 1: out quality product um and kept on being consistent and

1558
01:24:35,640 --> 01:24:39,120
Speaker 1: those frowns begin to turn into collapse. And um, that's

1559
01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:41,639
Speaker 1: where we're at now. Man. We're thirty two years old. Man,

1560
01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:45,599
Speaker 1: and wow, and we made history. Man, We're gonna keep

1561
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:47,960
Speaker 1: on home making it. You know, I'm gonna tell you something.

1562
01:24:48,120 --> 01:24:50,840
Speaker 1: I don't know who the black intellectual else, but I

1563
01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:54,519
Speaker 1: am a black intellectual. If there's a club out there,

1564
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:58,840
Speaker 1: every shot McDonald's in that club. Okay, you know I

1565
01:24:58,880 --> 01:25:01,519
Speaker 1: got in me sitting on the shell, I got I

1566
01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:05,040
Speaker 1: got image Awards sitting on my shell. I just sold

1567
01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:10,040
Speaker 1: four million books for Harpercollus. I didn't put two blockbuster

1568
01:25:10,120 --> 01:25:12,759
Speaker 1: movies in the theater. I'm gonna tell you'll, some young people,

1569
01:25:13,080 --> 01:25:17,080
Speaker 1: don't ever let nobody tell you who you are. Don't

1570
01:25:17,120 --> 01:25:20,040
Speaker 1: ever let nobody tell you what you're exposed to do

1571
01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:23,160
Speaker 1: if they don't understand your journey, understand the shoes that

1572
01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:26,280
Speaker 1: you walk in. I'm telling you, I picked that book up.

1573
01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:28,840
Speaker 1: I didn't put it down. I went and got me

1574
01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:31,480
Speaker 1: a couple of sandwiches, and I would eat my sandwiches

1575
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:34,080
Speaker 1: and and I put it down. And my wife said,

1576
01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:36,200
Speaker 1: you don't watch the football game. I didn't watch no

1577
01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:39,599
Speaker 1: football game on Sunday because because I'm gonna just tell

1578
01:25:39,640 --> 01:25:44,120
Speaker 1: you something, I enjoyed the storytelling. I enjoyed the and

1579
01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:46,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep telling everybody because now I gotta go

1580
01:25:46,880 --> 01:25:49,599
Speaker 1: back and read the series now because it's interesting in

1581

Speaker 1: my life. Because you know, like I told you, in

1582

Speaker 1: this deal you guys have. You have a deal your

1602
01:26:57,520 --> 01:27:00,599
Speaker 1: side with Warner Brothers Studio at NBC Universe to develop

1603
01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:04,320
Speaker 1: television projects. And you also agreed to an audio exclusive

1604
01:27:04,320 --> 01:27:08,080
Speaker 1: deal with Audible, a company owned by Amazon dot Com,

1605
01:27:08,200 --> 01:27:12,439
Speaker 1: a deal that's the first of his kind with fiction writers. Okay,

1606
01:27:12,479 --> 01:27:15,680
Speaker 1: I got now talk to me about that. Uh, well

1607
01:27:15,720 --> 01:27:17,920
Speaker 1: you quite this, maw. We're forty books in so we're

1608
01:27:17,960 --> 01:27:21,840
Speaker 1: just looking for new ways to tell stories. It was

1609
01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:25,679
Speaker 1: a UM expected progression for us to move into television

1610
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:28,640
Speaker 1: and films. Absolutely when l A, we just found a

1611
01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:31,640
Speaker 1: world of opportunities that we're just creatives out there that

1612
01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:35,880
Speaker 1: we're willing to partner with us to our stories to

1613
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:38,720
Speaker 1: the screen. Um. We were very lucky to link up

1614
01:27:38,720 --> 01:27:43,160
Speaker 1: with Warner Brothers and Universal Cable Productions to create two

1615
01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:47,800
Speaker 1: television shows. So we're bringing our content to the siver

1616
01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:50,360
Speaker 1: screen where we're able to tell the types of stories

1617
01:27:50,760 --> 01:27:53,680
Speaker 1: that we want to tell with people that look like us.

1618
01:27:53,720 --> 01:27:57,400
Speaker 1: So we're very very fortunate to become in as executive producers,

1619
01:27:57,479 --> 01:28:00,800
Speaker 1: not as UM staff writers. In the room, we're controlling

1620
01:28:00,840 --> 01:28:02,920
Speaker 1: the type of shows that we're shaping. There you go

1621
01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:06,080
Speaker 1: right there. That's all I wanted to hear the word

1622
01:28:06,200 --> 01:28:10,160
Speaker 1: control because I'm gonna tell you something. People out there,

1623
01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:14,599
Speaker 1: you know, I get frustrated when super talented people see

1624
01:28:14,640 --> 01:28:16,479
Speaker 1: you guys like you see you throw that number out

1625
01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:21,080
Speaker 1: there forty like it was nothing. You really need to

1626
01:28:21,120 --> 01:28:24,599
Speaker 1: stop talking to me, Ashley. You we cain't talk no more.

1627
01:28:25,240 --> 01:28:27,280
Speaker 1: If we fought the books in in, you know, and

1628
01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:29,479
Speaker 1: we went to Hollywood and thought we'd find some new

1629
01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:35,360
Speaker 1: avenues to express our vision. But you said control because

1630
01:28:35,880 --> 01:28:39,599
Speaker 1: it's important because people see things a certain way, and

1631
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:42,840
Speaker 1: because they're writers, they don't have the life experience. And

1632
01:28:42,880 --> 01:28:47,240
Speaker 1: if if you hold onto anything, hold onto your name

1633
01:28:47,320 --> 01:28:49,639
Speaker 1: and your brand. Because I'm gonna tell you something I've

1634
01:28:49,640 --> 01:28:51,840
Speaker 1: been an executively do so I've been a writer, I

1635
01:28:51,840 --> 01:28:54,360
Speaker 1: should always tell us to Steve Harvey. As a Steve,

1636
01:28:55,120 --> 01:28:57,280
Speaker 1: I can get a job the next day. If your

1637
01:28:57,320 --> 01:29:01,000
Speaker 1: show get counsel, if your show get else, your name

1638
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:05,960
Speaker 1: is tarnished. So always know this is that your brand.

1639
01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:08,800
Speaker 1: It's what got you there. And if you don't respect

1640
01:29:08,840 --> 01:29:11,960
Speaker 1: it and control it. And I don't care what names

1641
01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:15,040
Speaker 1: they call you, I don't they kill you, y'all jerks,

1642
01:29:15,120 --> 01:29:20,280
Speaker 1: y'all asses or whatever. You control your image, man, because

1643
01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:23,240
Speaker 1: they will get a job someplace else and they don't

1644
01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:25,040
Speaker 1: even know you. I'm gonna just tell you. The writers

1645
01:29:25,080 --> 01:29:27,120
Speaker 1: who come on the show, they don't know you. They

1646
01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:29,840
Speaker 1: may have read a half a book, read a little

1647
01:29:29,880 --> 01:29:33,400
Speaker 1: clip from a New York Times article, went in there, pitched,

1648
01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:35,840
Speaker 1: and then on your show based on some other work.

1649
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:39,720
Speaker 1: They did on other dramas. So your brand control is important.

1650
01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:45,000
Speaker 1: Hit me on that, absolutely, that's excellent advice. And learn

1651
01:29:45,080 --> 01:29:48,320
Speaker 1: how to direct too. Okay, that way you can knock

1652
01:29:48,360 --> 01:29:51,520
Speaker 1: that direct out of that chair and you start directing

1653
01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:55,080
Speaker 1: and controlling your whole bread. Because you guys have something special.

1654
01:29:55,280 --> 01:29:57,599
Speaker 1: And the reason I say that because when I read,

1655
01:29:57,720 --> 01:30:01,880
Speaker 1: uh the Cartel seven, I just saw the whole series.

1656
01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:05,559
Speaker 1: You know you guys right, so good man, It's like

1657
01:30:05,960 --> 01:30:08,360
Speaker 1: I just I just saw. I just felt like every

1658
01:30:08,400 --> 01:30:11,760
Speaker 1: chapter was another episode you feel me, and so it

1659
01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:14,320
Speaker 1: was like every episode it was like because I'm a

1660
01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:15,920
Speaker 1: big fan of you know, I'm gonna just tell you

1661
01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:18,439
Speaker 1: this when Power came out, and I'm not trying to

1662
01:30:18,479 --> 01:30:20,840
Speaker 1: compare what you do the Power, but that it's that

1663
01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:23,479
Speaker 1: gritty genre, you know what I'm saying where a show

1664
01:30:23,520 --> 01:30:25,960
Speaker 1: like that wasn't supposed to make it on TV because

1665
01:30:26,000 --> 01:30:27,600
Speaker 1: she was like that in the past, ain't made it

1666
01:30:27,640 --> 01:30:30,639
Speaker 1: on TV. And I'll be perfectly honest, when they told

1667
01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:33,280
Speaker 1: me fifty six was tied to it, I turned my friend, go,

1668
01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:36,759
Speaker 1: this ain't gonna make it. This ain't I ain't gonna

1669
01:30:36,760 --> 01:30:41,280
Speaker 1: watch this crap. I am the biggest Power fan you

1670
01:30:41,320 --> 01:30:45,000
Speaker 1: can find because in the end, this is why I

1671
01:30:45,040 --> 01:30:48,240
Speaker 1: know you guys can be successful with this, because your

1672
01:30:48,360 --> 01:30:54,120
Speaker 1: series is about family. Your series is really about parody

1673
01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:57,639
Speaker 1: and that emotion. If you look at Narckles, the series,

1674
01:30:58,000 --> 01:31:00,760
Speaker 1: that's just about family. If you look Get, if you

1675
01:31:00,800 --> 01:31:03,639
Speaker 1: look at the series with Power, that's really about two

1676
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:06,640
Speaker 1: parents who are making mistakes, really trying to take care

1677
01:31:06,640 --> 01:31:09,080
Speaker 1: of their family. Just happen to be drug dealers, just

1678
01:31:09,080 --> 01:31:11,200
Speaker 1: have to be drug dealers. There ain't no different to

1679
01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:15,040
Speaker 1: somebody that IBM. Ain't nobody different somebody Amazon dot com.

1680
01:31:15,400 --> 01:31:17,519
Speaker 1: It's just that their lifestyle little bit interest because they

1681
01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:21,519
Speaker 1: kill people, they beat up people, rough them up. That's

1682
01:31:21,520 --> 01:31:24,599
Speaker 1: all y'all do. But that's that's the that's the enlightening part.

1683
01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:27,040
Speaker 1: That's why I know you own to something special. The

1684
01:31:27,040 --> 01:31:30,200
Speaker 1: thing I think is even bigger opportunity for you guys

1685
01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:35,840
Speaker 1: is that audio booking, because man, that digital platform, y'all

1686
01:31:35,840 --> 01:31:38,320
Speaker 1: will own a team. And I'm not just talking just

1687
01:31:38,439 --> 01:31:42,200
Speaker 1: to the urban culture. Y'all will own it with everybody

1688
01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:45,880
Speaker 1: because the read if you get I'm just so excited

01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:16,240

1747
01:35:18,600 --> 01:35:21,719
Speaker 1: the roof. The sales went through the roof. Because people

1748
