I think Cookout burgers are 123 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 1: a little bit overrated, not that they're bad, but just 124 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: a little bit like like every time I like, I 125 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: get excited about cookout, then I eat them, like, oh 126 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: it's just a burger like everywhere else. I feel like 127 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: Jack in the boxburgers is underrated. So I don't know, 128 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: I have to think about this. 129 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then and also what I realized too, all 130 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 4: the sides. 131 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 3: Sometimes I really do think it depends on what part 132 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 3: of the country you're into. Yes, we'll depend on how 133 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 3: things are served, because like the pope's, most pope's up 134 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,239 Speaker 3: here are okay, you know, but when Charlotte, North Carolina people, 135 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 3: you know, people that live like in Louisiana and like 136 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 3: Texas and shit like that, they were like this shit 137 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 3: is the bomb. So I really do think certain changes 138 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 3: would depend on what part of the country you live in. 139 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: Man, we don't have something too like in and Out, yeah, 140 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: or we have Heartis but not called juniors, and we 141 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 1: don't have a lot of hardise anymore. 142 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: Uh Khalil said. 143 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: Oh, and then miss barn says, I'm here for the 144 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: ice cream, but the ice cream selection looks like they 145 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 1: are trying to appeal to the weed head crowd. 146 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: Well, so it's been in Jersey and they they good. 147 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 2: You know, I fuck with the ice cream. 148 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: It definitely do got that that open minded to it. 149 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: But that's because also for me with Dairy Queen, it's 150 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,479 Speaker 1: less really the ice cream, more the blizzard which is 151 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 1: made of ice cream. But I just like all those 152 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: different comboss Montage. 153 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 2: Was episode twenty three to fifty two. 154 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 1: We were joined by comedian Liz Glazier, who was a 155 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: great guest, first time guest on the show and says, 156 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: I didn't hear you talk about this, so I thought 157 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: i'd asked. Twitter recently was banned in Nigeria because the 158 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,440 Speaker 1: deleted the post that was considered a declaration of war 159 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: against an ethnic group. Six months ago, Twitter dragged his 160 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: feet to delete Trump's account for making violent threats against 161 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: his opponents. Trump even applied to January sixth attack on 162 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: the Capitol. Their reason was free speech. I've been trying 163 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: to figure out what the difference is between Nigerian president 164 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 1: threat and his people and the US president doing the 165 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: same thing. You know what, and not versed in Nigerian politics, 166 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: let me just start with that. I would imagine that 167 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: you're hinting towards the fact that Nigeria is a black country. 168 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: One could I'm sure the other side of that argument 169 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: is gonna be Twitter would say, well, we saw the 170 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,679 Speaker 1: cost of not doing enough with Trump, so this time 171 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: it was someone else. Were not playing that shit no more. 172 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: We just making people's countdown. 173 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: And if I'm being fair to Twitter, they have been 174 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,239 Speaker 1: a lot more rigid on that. Like all these fiery 175 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: politicians in America that used to go on Twitter and 176 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,679 Speaker 1: say like wild insurrection and shit, they are getting banned 177 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: a lot now, you know, Like it's a lot of 178 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: like this person is not on Twitter right now. 179 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 2: They're not. They don't seem to be permanent bands though, but. 180 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 4: Enough to be like, hey, don't be sitting, don't be 181 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 4: out here doing dumb shit. 182 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, I don't feel comfortable really having a hard 183 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 1: take on a hot take on this because I legitimately 184 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: don't know enough about what's happening in Nigeria to just 185 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: be like like, oh no, no, they did that, that 186 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: got wrong and they you know or whatever. 187 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 2: I assume racism affects everything. 188 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: So if there's a double standard even for doing bad shit. 189 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,079 Speaker 2: Then yeah, that's probably just because of racism. 190 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 3: Yes, that and like Rogers said, they with Trump. They 191 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 3: was like, see this is what happened.

No, I mean yes, often, sometimes. 197 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 4: Or never care sometimes depending on the trailer. 198 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a sometimes person for sure. It just depends 199 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: on what kind of movie it is. But you know 200 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: the you know the ones like boxing movies are good 201 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: for sports movies are really good for The. 202 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 2: Montage shows Mody working hard. 203 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: But Angel says, the montage in the movie Life gets 204 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: me every time, pretty much sends me to the upper room. 205 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, all the Pixar montage stuff. 206 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 1: Twenty three fifty three in the Whites, we discussed a 207 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: bunch of stuff on this. 208 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 2: We got two comments. 209 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: Swaby p says, I'm just here for the insurrection intro music. 210 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: I know there isn't much insurrection news nowadays, but we 211 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: need more of that bop please. 212 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 2: Yeah he is the bop yep. I love that. I 213 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 2: love that music that intro. 214 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: Ev E says, I'm glad that LATINX people have in 215 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: the heights to be proud of I consider watching it, 216 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,560 Speaker 1: but also the controversy controversy, I decided it wasn't for me. 217 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 1: Maybe leing Manuel Miranda's can since there about giving more 218 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: Afroatenics people more opportunities. But this is a criticism he 219 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,199 Speaker 1: has faced before, long before In the Heights was made, 220 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: so I don't really believe him until. 221 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 2: He actually follows through. 222 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 1: Well, what's interesting and I you know, anytime colorism comes up, 223 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: I would recommend y'all check out Tea with Queen and j. 224 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: I think they do a great job covering that as 225 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: a topic, and they're obviously much more versed in it 226 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: than I am, and stuff, you know what I mean, Like, 227 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: and I know it's kind of like quote unquote pseudo science, 228 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: like it just depends on people's perspective that some people 229 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: can be like the well what about this way and 230 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: all that stuff. I can't speak to all of the 231 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 1: nuances to it because I think it sometimes I feel 232 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: like the goldposts move on a conversation and I'm like, 233 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 1: I'm not really sure that's consistent with the other side 234 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: of this, right right, But for people that are like 235 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: interested in it, learning about it, kind of hearing some 236 00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: perspectives on it. 237 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 2: I really recommend he with Queen and Jay. 238 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 1: But what was interesting is I listened to that show 239 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: and I think over a year ago they talked about 240 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 1: it when the trailer dropped a lot of people. So 241 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,680 Speaker 1: when people say this has been something that has plagued them, 242 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if they mean it's plagued his other 243 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: work necessarily, because with. 244 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,079 Speaker 2: Hamilton, I heard people have had. 245 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: That had issues, but this weren't the issues, right, Like 246 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: the issues were different about like trying to say either 247 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: like he whitewashed it, or there weren't enough there wasn't 248 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: a representation for like indigenous people, or he didn't bring 249 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: up slavery enough. Things like that, which I totally understand, 250 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: but are different than colorism. I think colorism is a 251 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: serious is like a serious thing that can stand on 252 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 1: his own. But not to say I think any creative 253 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: person period that has made work will have had something 254 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: to do with colors because colorism sinks into everything and also. 255 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 4: Within the heights like everything else. It got pushed back 256 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 4: a year. 257 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. 258 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 3: So you know that's like extra time that you know, 259 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:01,680 Speaker 3: gives people to talk about it. 260 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, So like when people say like it plagued him, 261 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: I don't know that it plagued them as much as 262 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: it was, like the time to address this will be 263 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: when my movie drops. And because people, you know, we 264 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: were like, well there was time to change on like 265 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: the movie's done, yeah by time, Like this is not 266 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: a typical scenario. 267 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: The trailer dropped in the movie was done. This isn't 268 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 2: like some. 269 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,959 Speaker 1: A scenario or whatever, like we're thinking about doing this 270 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: and then it'll be a year before you see it. 271 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 2: It was like we if we could have when we 272 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 2: dropped that trailer, y'all would have seen it like a 273 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: month or two after that. 274 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: Yes, But because of the pandemic, it got pushed back, 275 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: and I think in people's mind they thought, well, then 276 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 1: they could have done something. I'm like, no, especially that set. 277 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,840 Speaker 1: That's what they were trying to do. He was just 278 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: gonna have to eat this ale and he did, and 279 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: to his credit, you know, he ate it pretty well. 280 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: I don't think there's the other thing is any of 281 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: these discussions about color and any of these discussions about 282 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: where the light skin people are talking everyone that everyone 283 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 1: that doesn't A lot of people have they arm folded listening, 284 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: and it really doesn't matter what they say. It's like 285 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: I always say about apologies, it only matters if you 286 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 1: like the person, because if you like them, you kind 287 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: of fell in the gaps of like if it's not 288 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 1: a perfect apology, but I get what they're saying, and 289 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: if you don't like them, it's not a perfect apology, 290 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: and that's because they're not sincere and they don't really 291 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: mean it, and so there's no right way to do it. 292 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: Only the work. 293 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: Will show, and even as he adjusts and makes changes, 294 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: there's never gonna be a perfect piece of artwork. 295 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 2: It's just do you like or trust. 296 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,839 Speaker 1: Those people enough to get them a benefit of doubt 297 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: or to have some understanding that they couldn't do everything 298 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: for everybody, because nobody ever has. 299 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 2: Done everything for everybody. 300 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: So you know, it's really just more about a lot 301 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 1: of criticism. The more the more I read and the 302 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: more that I, uh, you know, Emma are critics, the 303 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: more I think about how much criticism is mostly just 304 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: us looking in a mirror reflecting back onto a thing. 305 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 1: It's not really what the thing is anymore. How do 306 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: I feel agreed? 307 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 3: And to an extent, there's nothing wrong with that, but 308 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 3: also to an extent, sometimes we could be interjecting things 309 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 3: to the art that was never meant to be because 310 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 3: we're basing it off of us and actually off of 311 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 3: the work itself. 312 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 4: And those things. 313 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 3: Do matter, and a lot of people don't separate that, 314 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 3: and for a percentage of people they because there are 315 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 3: such things as valid critiques, then there are some things 316 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 3: as I hate everything people, and those people and the 317 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 3: critique people kind of sometimes get mixed in together. It's 318 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 3: hard to separate them, like one group from the other group. 319 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 3: But you know, if you are good and you actually go, okay, 320 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 3: that's valid, that's not valid as valid you kind of 321 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 3: almost have to cipher through it in order to find out, 322 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 3: you know, if this is something you need to address 323 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 3: or if it's something you just say fuck it. 324 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I'm a big believer, and not all criticism 325 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 1: is valid and not all criticism is welcome, So you know, 326 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily approach it from the way of you know, 327 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: a lot of people seeing that have reduced it to 328 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: this very flat like all criticism is valador all criticism matters, 329 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: not to mean, so it just depends on the merit 330 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: of it. From my own perspective that I'm bringing in. 331 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: So I think a lot of the stuff with colorism 332 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: is warranted. I think it was very valid. 333 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 2: I think the. 334 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: Responses to it left something to be desired. In that 335 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: roundtable with the Grillo, I think Lehn Manuel Miranda's apology 336 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: and promise pledged to do better was probably the best 337 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 1: of the responses. And that's about it, because what a 338 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 1: lot of people want to admit.

And people are struggling with the idea that 506 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,879 Speaker 1: black people did are doing that, but because they're like, 507 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 1: we're so used to the society where everything we attack 508 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:38,040 Speaker 1: is in anger, and I think the only way they 509 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: think they can fix a problem is by attacking people. 510 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 2: Angrily online and all this stuff. 511 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: And this is a problem where you're like, I don't 512 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: want to do that to my own people. You know, 513 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 1: this is the hammer that I use to fix everything, 514 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 1: and I don't want to use this hammer. So we 515 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,159 Speaker 1: just gotta not say anything, or just gotta beg and 516 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: help and please not really do help. People come around 517 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,439 Speaker 1: on it, because like I said, I worry about my 518 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: family and friends that at this point say they don't 519 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: think they're gonna get it. I'm like, I don't know 520 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: what I'm going to do then. 521 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 3: Right, And it's going to be the to the point 522 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 3: to where, like we said, it's gonna be a separation eventually. 523 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 4: And you know, you've reading You've. 524 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 3: Read articles to say the people in the hospital right 525 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 3: now are unvaccinated. The people that's catching COVID for the 526 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 3: most part, you know, because the shots are one hundred percent, 527 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 3: are unvaccinated. The people that are being on ventilators are 528 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 3: the unvaccinated. Like, those numbers have not gone down. So 529 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 3: you denying you waiting whatever is, it does not excuse 530 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 3: the fact that if you catch this shit, there's a 531 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 3: higher probability that you're going to die. And my thing, 532 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 3: I rather not lose you. But at the same time, 533 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 3: I can't want you to live more than yourself. 534 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 1: So I mean I'm making I'm making my own little 535 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 1: boundaries in my mind. I mean, people have to do 536 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 1: it all the time, but I already have my like, well, 537 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: if I ever hear that this person sick or like 538 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: dead or whatever, I'm just already preparing the idea that 539 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: that could happen and they. 540 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 2: Know the consequences and they just don't care. 541 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't want to, Like, I'm already 542 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: preparing so that I won't be too angry about it, 543 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 1: because I think anger would be a real thing. 544 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 2: I would feel if people who are like, yeah, I'm 545 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:17,280 Speaker 2: not getting it and then they die and I'm like, 546 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 2: what the fuck? So you know, we'll see anyway. 547 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: Seven nino percent say yes, nineteen percent say no, and 548 00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 1: two percent say I am the unvaccinated friends of family 549 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: Alicia says, they made that decision. 550 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 2: They got to live or die with it. 551 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: None of them are allergic to the vaccine or anything 552 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,920 Speaker 1: like that.

Luckily, my close 555 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 1: relatives are vaccinated. This delta variant is not playing games. 556 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: I also worry about the unwashed will allow the variants 557 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: to mutate so much until they produce a variant that 558 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: can escape our vaccines. Hopefully, scientists are keeping an eye 559 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: on it and working on boosters to address the virus. 560 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 1: Sick of American selfishness in short, excightedness. 561 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 2: Yeah.

So he really is Angela 619 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,600 Speaker 1: says hey Rod and came regarding that bigot Marjorie Green, 620 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 1: that apology feels like a part of a larger plan. 621 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: How she can be that old and not know it's 622 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: beyond troubling. I also think she can shove that apology 623 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: or the sun don't shine. It is not a matter 624 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: of offense or offending anyone. Her racism and anti Semitism 625 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: causes real harm. Of offense can only occur. Offense can 626 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: can of course be evolved and feelings are important, but 627 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: being a racist during racism is more than hurting people 628 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: someone's feelings is about actual harm. People often try to 629 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: reduce the effects of racism to someone having hurt feelings. 630 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 2: It's one of the key. 631 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: Tools they used to argue that racism is a systemic 632 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:19,719 Speaker 1: it's just individuals hurting over other individuals feelings. Yep, absolutely, Agela, 633 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: everything you said in that spot on, I can't agree more. 634 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: And I just don't think the thing like with Margie 635 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: Taylor Green, that's a good example we talk about apologies. 636 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,719 Speaker 1: That's a person who I never really see her changing 637 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 1: her actions to even have a moment to go maybe 638 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: this apology is real, because it's like you say, wild shit, 639 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: you trafficking anti Semitic stuff constantly. One apology is never 640 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: gonna make me go, Well, I guess she's not gonna 641 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: do that anymore, because also it's not in her interest. 642 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 2: She won't get reelected if. 643 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,960 Speaker 1: She truly turns over some type of belief and becomes 644 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: like this anti racist or unracist person. So it's hard 645 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: to believe this. And you know, we'll see, right like 646 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: we will see. I can't imagine I hope she proves 647 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: me wrong, but I doubt she will because I just 648 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: don't think she's the kind of person that really believes 649 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: she was wrong in those instances. I really think she 650 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 1: just said shit for political expedience. As evidenced by her 651 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: other apology was she apologized quote unquote for her behavior 652 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: when she. 653 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 2: Was getting stripped of her committee. 654 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: Position, and then as soon as she got stripped of it, 655 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: she went back to like fuck y'all in yes and 656 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: you know and threatening AOC and all this shit.

They just want 831 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:09,879 Speaker 1: everyone to like them and they feel entitled to that, 832 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 1: and when they don't get it, it has to be 833 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:17,279 Speaker 1: everyone's fault with their own anyway. But yeah, like I said, 834 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 1: it's even weirder to me that he has taken this 835 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:23,040 Speaker 1: on and the last thing I'll say is the when 836 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: you said no one gets canceled except Kyler, Kabnick, Chris 837 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 1: hat Michelle. I think canceled has about four or five 838 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 1: different meanings in pop culture right now, and that's why 839 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 1: everyone's talking past each other. I think a person like 840 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,360 Speaker 1: Kevin Hart, when he's talking about they tried to cancel me, 841 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:42,320 Speaker 1: what he really means is he received backlash, fair or unfair. 842 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 1: I think fair to what he does. And he was like, 843 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: I did X amount of years in comedy with no 844 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 1: one having backlash to me, no one ever trying to 845 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: call me out, none of the communities I've offended, reaching 846 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,840 Speaker 1: out and having a platform, and now all of a sudden, 847 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: I'm facing that, and to me, that feels bad. That's 848 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: what he's really saying when he says they tried to 849 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 1: cancel me, because obviously this is one of the guys 850 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: doing the most prolific workers in Hollywood. He's clearly not 851 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:15,839 Speaker 1: losing career opportunity with Yeah, the job that he lost 852 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:17,879 Speaker 1: quote unquote that I don't even know if it pays 853 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: was hosting like the Oscars, and in that case he 854 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: stepped down because he was too proud to do it. 855 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 1: So I don't think anyone would say. I mean a 856 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: lot of people with bad faith arguments would say he 857 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,839 Speaker 1: was canceled. But I think any result person would be like, yeah, 858 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:32,720 Speaker 1: he wasn't canceled. 859 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:36,200 Speaker 2: He just decided not to do that shit. Agreed all right, And. 860 00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,760 Speaker 1: The poe was, do you think Kevin Hart cares about 861 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: being canceled? 862 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 2: Yes or no? 863 00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 1: Seventy eight percent say yes, twenty two percent say no. Yes, Yeah, 864 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: I think so too. I think the cynical take could 865 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 1: be he doesn't really care, but he just keeps talking 866 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 1: about it because he, you know, some type of arrogance 867 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 1: or ego stuff, but which could. 868 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 2: Be possible, but he sounded like he cared. I think 869 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:58,359 Speaker 2: he's really hurt. 870 00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 1: And with most people, when they hurt, they think they 871 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:03,760 Speaker 1: hurt is the only hurt that matters. 872 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:05,399 Speaker 2: You heard a lot of people with the shit. 873 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 4: That's a statement. Yes. 874 00:40:08,480 --> 00:40:11,279 Speaker 1: The voicemail line seven oh four five five seven zero 875 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 1: one eighty six is the voicemail line. We got a 876 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: couple of voicemails here.

And like I said, because it felt 898 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: like a it felt like a Rube's cube to me, 899 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,280 Speaker 1: like that person wrote that email. 900 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 2: And I was like, I. 901 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: You know, I don't want to assume bad faith. I 902 00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 1: don't want to assume that troller. I mean, they could be, 903 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: but I just didn't want to assume that because you know, 904 00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 1: hopefully people have good intentions when they do that stuff. 905 00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 2: But I was like, well, what is missing? 906 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,720 Speaker 1: Like what what has changed that would make someone feel 907 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: like Karen's not giving her getting her space or she 908 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 1: needs her own segment even though we've never like it's 909 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:51,840 Speaker 1: not like we took away a segment and now it's like, 910 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,919 Speaker 1: oh no, Karen doesn't have her segment. Why did y'all 911 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: stop doing that? But then I was like, I said, 912 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 1: it was racking my brain. I talked to a few people, 913 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,280 Speaker 1: me and Karen talked about it, and then I thought, 914 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 1: reading Rainbow, that's that's the one, Like, I bet you 915 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,799 Speaker 1: if we just brought that back, it would help a lot. 916 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 1: And yes, obviously it's harder to do it, like we 917 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:16,799 Speaker 1: probably won't do it when we have guests, but and 918 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 1: probably not every show, but just a lot more often 919 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,720 Speaker 1: than we were. And even if it's some retread stuff 920 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 1: or you know whatever, that's fine. 921 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I'll get I get in my own. 922 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 1: Head about that stuff, like you know, like, oh, do 923 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 1: people really want to hear us talk about this topic again? 924 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:36,120 Speaker 1: But sometimes those those things branch out into completely other topics, 925 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:38,440 Speaker 1: and I think people like that also. 926 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 3: How I felt about it two years from now, I 927 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 3: might have a different perspective today. 928 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 1: That's a yeah, that's another great point. So yeah, that's 929 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:47,960 Speaker 1: we're definitely bringing it back. 930 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,319 Speaker 2: We got a call from a friend. You might even 931 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 2: recognize a Voicecaren. 932 00:42:55,520 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 6: What ride and hearing all high and so long as 933 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 6: that class in all the musical theater talk. I just 934 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 6: told me from out of the darkness, I think, like, 935 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 6: I don't really go up for Manuel Miranda. But the 936 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 6: funny thing to me about in the hinds is that 937 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 6: they took the anti blackness out of the original plot 938 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 6: of the musical, and I could just see them in 939 00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 6: a room somewhere patting themselves on the back for removing 940 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 6: that or even being like, I want to take a 941 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 6: step forward and you know, avoid the woke mobs coming 942 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,399 Speaker 6: after us, so I'm don't just take this part out 943 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 6: and I just didn't work. But as always, I looked 944 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:50,359 Speaker 6: to y'all for some salient points about things, and I'm 945 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 6: just really happy to be a friend and a listener 946 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:58,000 Speaker 6: of the show, and I feel like y'all were always, 947 00:43:58,160 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 6: as always on point. 948 00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 5: About every said about the criticism. 949 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:03,960 Speaker 6: All right, love. 950 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 1: You the official Thesbian of the podcasts I Haven't Forgotten. 951 00:44:11,520 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 1: Also coming up soon, well, her and Reggie will be 952 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 1: back on the show. Yay, you know, looking forward to that. 953 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, you know, like one of the things 954 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 1: I try to be mindful of is the fact that 955 00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 1: some shit is not in our purview, right, we don't 956 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 1: know everything about it, and so I try to give 957 00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 1: credit where it's due. And then also just the fact 958 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,280 Speaker 1: that when it comes to a lot of this stuff, 959 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,480 Speaker 1: I'm not even a fan of musicals like that to 960 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,800 Speaker 1: be giving people some expert level of opinion, I didn't 961 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:42,319 Speaker 1: see you already brought up the play. 962 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 2: I didn't watch the play. 963 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it is that is interesting because it is 964 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 1: a good thing. If they had an anti black element 965 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,360 Speaker 1: of the play and they took it out, that is 966 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 1: a good thing. It does mean that they care, It 967 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,160 Speaker 1: does mean they're paying attention. But you didn't really see 968 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 1: a lot of people bringing that up at all. And 969 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 1: it is relevant because it's some level of improvement, but 970 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 1: it might not just be enough for people, which you 971 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: know obviously wasn't right. But yeah, shout out to lin 972 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 1: Manuel and in the Heights, I mean, it's gonna be 973 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 1: a very conflicting I mean everything on Twitter is like that, 974 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 1: but it's gonna be a very conflicting time when the 975 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: War season comes out, because if it is groundbreaking and 976 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: getting the awards, people are gonna be like kind of 977 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:27,839 Speaker 1: against it.

You essentially 1157 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 1: are as soon to be a coon until proven otherwise. 1158 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:53,000 Speaker 1: Despite the fact that most of these people don't support you, 1159 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:56,640 Speaker 1: don't support what you do, they won't come visit the plantation. 1160 00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,640 Speaker 1: The people that popped on top of this that were like, 1161 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,680 Speaker 1: you know, news outlets and all the stuff, many of them, 1162 00:54:03,719 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: he said, did not reach out to him, you know, 1163 00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 1: the mayor didn't reach out to him before making this, 1164 00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:11,359 Speaker 1: like these comments on Twitter. And I think once that 1165 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 1: became set in stone, that became the truth for everybody, 1166 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 1: because it's like, we have all agreed this man is 1167 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,680 Speaker 1: out here to try to destroy the black community.

You know, some of 1466 01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:40,799 Speaker 3: the shit that happened, We will never know what happened 1467 01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:42,439 Speaker 3: to them.

The word slaves has powers, slaves, slavery, negroes, 1659 01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:37,720 Speaker 1: Jim Crow, reconstruction. These powerful emotional words should never be 1660 01:17:37,760 --> 01:17:40,519 Speaker 1: substituted with whatever the fuck this brother was advocating for. 1661 01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:43,599 Speaker 1: Plus forty percent of the US supports a political party 1662 01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:46,800 Speaker 1: whose objective is to whitewash history of rebooths, slavery, and, 1663 01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:49,559 Speaker 1: by extension, the case for reparations from the discussion history 1664 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:54,639 Speaker 1: of lexicon. This is the one case where nuanced semantics wait. 1665 01:17:54,680 --> 01:17:56,840 Speaker 1: This is the one case where nuance semantics and strict 1666 01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:58,320 Speaker 1: the sours definitions won't fly. 1667 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:00,720 Speaker 2: Dictionary definition just change over. 1668 01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:00,960 Speaker 7: Tom. 1669 01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,120 Speaker 1: Slaves now means what we all know.

Black people's property traded 1671 01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:10,920 Speaker 1: like cattle, working for free, abused, wipth, etc. Is not 1672 01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 1: that complicated. I fully understand the backlash behind it. There 1673 01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:16,479 Speaker 1: are obviously bad faith actors within the outrage mob. But 1674 01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:19,400 Speaker 1: if you stir behive, both the soldier bees and honey 1675 01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:20,679 Speaker 1: bees are coming for that ass. 1676 01:18:20,840 --> 01:18:22,760 Speaker 2: I hope the brother learned from this continues as good 1677 01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:23,639 Speaker 2: work and the future. 1678 01:18:23,720 --> 01:18:26,479 Speaker 1: Consult with black academics and do the rounds on black podcasts. 1679 01:18:26,520 --> 01:18:29,120 Speaker 1: Put his ideas and the white guys before implementing his 1680 01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:30,639 Speaker 1: June tenth and other major events. 1681 01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:32,559 Speaker 3: And my thing is this, what he was talking about 1682 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 3: came from academics, Like his phrases came from these academic people. 1683 01:18:37,320 --> 01:18:39,720 Speaker 3: And what you're saying is what a lot of the 1684 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:41,600 Speaker 3: anger people were saying. This is the word, this is 1685 01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:42,840 Speaker 3: definition and it don't need. 1686 01:18:42,760 --> 01:18:43,400 Speaker 4: To be changed. 1687 01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 3: And they're like, well, we're actually going to challenge that. 1688 01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:49,320 Speaker 3: And people don't like to be challenged on something that 1689 01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:51,880 Speaker 3: they think is loft. That's just and there's nothing wrong 1690 01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:55,679 Speaker 3: with that, you know because that was my first response too. 1691 01:18:56,240 --> 01:18:59,400 Speaker 3: And the thing is this, like you say, once you're 1692 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:02,040 Speaker 3: getting into acade demia and you start taking these big 1693 01:19:02,080 --> 01:19:05,840 Speaker 3: words all soside and these thought processing this you know 1694 01:19:06,160 --> 01:19:08,639 Speaker 3: place where you go when you you know, have these 1695 01:19:08,680 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 3: intellectual debates and you have to take these big concepts 1696 01:19:13,200 --> 01:19:16,280 Speaker 3: and shrink them down to where a common person could 1697 01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 3: understand it. There's you have to actually take the time. 1698 01:19:20,160 --> 01:19:23,000 Speaker 3: His mistake was that he was not gented with it 1699 01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:27,320 Speaker 3: all aside. That was his mistake. You know, you could say, 1700 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:28,920 Speaker 3: you have the right to be anger, you have the 1701 01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:31,680 Speaker 3: right to be upset. I apologized that I did not 1702 01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:36,400 Speaker 3: explain this in a proper way that people would understand. 1703 01:19:36,479 --> 01:19:39,200 Speaker 3: It is my job to explain the thing to the 1704 01:19:39,200 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 3: best of my possibility so that the masses can understand it. 1705 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:45,800 Speaker 3: And for the fact that you did not understand it, 1706 01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:48,680 Speaker 3: I felt in my job like like I felt in 1707 01:19:48,760 --> 01:19:49,160 Speaker 3: my job. 1708 01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:53,120 Speaker 4: Could I have worded it differently? Yes? Is your anger valid? Yes? 1709 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:55,040 Speaker 4: I understand that there is. 1710 01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:57,240 Speaker 3: No trust here, so I need to do a better 1711 01:19:57,320 --> 01:20:00,240 Speaker 3: job of building trust with the community so so that 1712 01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:03,280 Speaker 3: when we start doing these programs in the future, they 1713 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:05,720 Speaker 3: will be no distrust. I am not the type of 1714 01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:08,360 Speaker 3: person that the people are claiming that I am. I 1715 01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:10,519 Speaker 3: am not that type of person. This was not my purpose. 1716 01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:13,320 Speaker 3: What I want to do. I want to change the definition. 1717 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:17,679 Speaker 3: I want to make it where like Roderick says, it's 1718 01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:20,759 Speaker 3: a difference between being a slave and saying a slave 1719 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:22,960 Speaker 3: is not who I am. Like I had to think 1720 01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:25,479 Speaker 3: about that, you know, because there are people people tried 1721 01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:28,439 Speaker 3: to realize this, that we're slaves. They will tell you 1722 01:20:29,120 --> 01:20:31,599 Speaker 3: I'm not defined by the word slave like you talk 1723 01:20:31,640 --> 01:20:34,000 Speaker 3: about rape. There are people that go, I'm not a victim, 1724 01:20:34,040 --> 01:20:36,080 Speaker 3: and they'll flat tell you that I am not a 1725 01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:38,559 Speaker 3: victim of this, you know, And then there are people 1726 01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:40,120 Speaker 3: that says, I am a victim of this. 1727 01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:41,040 Speaker 4: It's all in. 1728 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:45,280 Speaker 3: Your interpretation on how you want to take what has happened. 1729 01:20:45,560 --> 01:20:48,640 Speaker 3: And I think whenever new words and new languages are 1730 01:20:48,720 --> 01:20:52,240 Speaker 3: introduced to the mass, it is very hard for them 1731 01:20:52,320 --> 01:20:54,720 Speaker 3: to kind of make that connection. Just like when me 1732 01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:57,880 Speaker 3: and rogerck first talked about defund the police, Me and 1733 01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 3: Roger and when It's a record had a law as 1734 01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:02,600 Speaker 3: conversation about that. We talk on the mic and we 1735 01:21:02,680 --> 01:21:05,040 Speaker 3: talk off the mic because I was like, fuck this bullshit. 1736 01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:09,400 Speaker 3: That means something like like like defund the police actually 1737 01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:12,240 Speaker 3: has a meaning, just like you said, slavery actually has 1738 01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:15,600 Speaker 3: a meaning. So unless somebody's actually going to take the 1739 01:21:15,640 --> 01:21:19,200 Speaker 3: time and explain all these philosophical things to you, you 1740 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:22,599 Speaker 3: can't be but like this, this man is a real 1741 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:23,120 Speaker 3: life person. 1742 01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:25,320 Speaker 4: You can't be like Twitter and say fucking understand it. 1743 01:21:25,640 --> 01:21:27,400 Speaker 3: That's what we fail to realize that he gave that 1744 01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:29,439 Speaker 3: Twitter response was like fuck you niggas. 1745 01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 4: You ain't get it, You ain't understand it. 1746 01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:31,880 Speaker 2: What is wrong with you? 1747 01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:35,240 Speaker 3: I came and I tried to help you people, because 1748 01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,919 Speaker 3: all you're gonna do is make people angrier. 1749 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:39,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to. 1750 01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:42,920 Speaker 3: Approach things from a kind from a place of kindness. 1751 01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,120 Speaker 3: And my biggest thing is sometimes take the al whenever 1752 01:21:46,160 --> 01:21:48,640 Speaker 3: it's not justified, because you know what, not taking the 1753 01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:50,360 Speaker 3: al did cast you funding? 1754 01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:54,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think that's really what it comes down to. 1755 01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:58,920 Speaker 1: But uh, that term the I disagree with all like 1756 01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:02,800 Speaker 1: dictionary definition thing because as you said, the definitions change 1757 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:06,120 Speaker 1: over time. There could be a time twenty years from 1758 01:22:06,160 --> 01:22:09,479 Speaker 1: now where people say bondsmen are bonds people and not slaves, 1759 01:22:10,920 --> 01:22:13,600 Speaker 1: like like not every like even the whole Like we 1760 01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:16,719 Speaker 1: have to say it because you know, it has power 1761 01:22:17,320 --> 01:22:21,320 Speaker 1: words changing power words changing meaning. Look at how many 1762 01:22:21,360 --> 01:22:23,920 Speaker 1: people are stuck arguing over cancel culture because it has 1763 01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:27,360 Speaker 1: like five different meanings right now, Like things like context 1764 01:22:27,400 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 1: matters in this. And I think also, as Karen brought 1765 01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:34,040 Speaker 1: up so astute Lee, the academics are the people that 1766 01:22:34,080 --> 01:22:36,559 Speaker 1: are on the forefront of trying to change his words. 1767 01:22:37,080 --> 01:22:38,960 Speaker 2: So the bondsman stuff. 1768 01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 1: Is a is a is kind of like some I 1769 01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:43,840 Speaker 1: don't want to say cutting edge, but like it's kind 1770 01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:46,880 Speaker 1: of like they're trying to usher that in in replacement 1771 01:22:46,920 --> 01:22:50,200 Speaker 1: for the word slave. He clearly jumped the gun on it. 1772 01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:57,639 Speaker 1: But also it's because people have bad faith in him. 1773 01:22:57,680 --> 01:22:58,040 Speaker 2: They don't. 1774 01:22:58,160 --> 01:22:59,640 Speaker 1: They have a lack of trust in him. I'm not 1775 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:02,200 Speaker 1: gonna sy bad faith. So they have a lack of trust. 1776 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:04,759 Speaker 1: And so they didn't even want to say like, oh, 1777 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:08,360 Speaker 1: I just google bondsmen it means slave. Yeah, they don't 1778 01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:10,439 Speaker 1: even want to do that because it's just like, nah, 1779 01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:12,519 Speaker 1: fuck that, and no, we don't want to see the 1780 01:23:12,640 --> 01:23:19,400 Speaker 1: academic research, an academic history. A black professor from our 1781 01:23:19,439 --> 01:23:23,720 Speaker 1: local HBCU was in an article being like, no, this 1782 01:23:23,800 --> 01:23:24,880 Speaker 1: is a valid program. 1783 01:23:25,200 --> 01:23:27,640 Speaker 2: So I don't think it's as simple as that. I 1784 01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:29,479 Speaker 2: really do think it. 1785 01:23:29,520 --> 01:23:32,720 Speaker 1: Is what Karen said, which was, hey, he got prideful, 1786 01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:36,240 Speaker 1: he got angry, he got defensive and dismissive, and he 1787 01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:39,639 Speaker 1: probably should have taken a completely opposite tone because even 1788 01:23:39,800 --> 01:23:42,680 Speaker 1: if people would they may or may not have been 1789 01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:44,479 Speaker 1: willing to listen. But even if they would have been 1790 01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:46,720 Speaker 1: willing to listen, they weren't gonna listen to you just 1791 01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:49,200 Speaker 1: be like, fuck, y'all, I know what I was doing. 1792 01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:49,920 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? 1793 01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:52,400 Speaker 1: You almost have to come back and be like, hey, listen, 1794 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:55,120 Speaker 1: I see how y'all got to this point. And I 1795 01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:56,880 Speaker 1: see how it looks, but let me explain to you, 1796 01:23:56,920 --> 01:23:58,920 Speaker 1: it's not what you think. And I hope y'all come 1797 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 1: out and see it, because I promise she was not 1798 01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:01,200 Speaker 1: gonna go the. 1799 01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 2: Way you think it's going. 1800 01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:07,280 Speaker 1: But unfortunately, man, it's like a lot of bad shit 1801 01:24:07,320 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 1: combined at the same time to end up where we 1802 01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:09,479 Speaker 1: ended up. 1803 01:24:09,600 --> 01:24:12,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, and both parties can be right and wrong, and 1804 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:15,200 Speaker 3: I don't think people understand that both parties can be 1805 01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:19,000 Speaker 3: right and both parties can be wrong right, And that's 1806 01:24:19,040 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 3: a very hard concept for people to understand.

That was actually a good event. But 1864 01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:55,640 Speaker 1: with whiteness and white people in particular. I am very, very, 1865 01:26:55,800 --> 01:26:58,880 Speaker 1: very protective of my time because I used to have 1866 01:26:58,960 --> 01:27:03,519 Speaker 1: white friends and it was it always felt like, in 1867 01:27:03,560 --> 01:27:07,400 Speaker 1: addition to my introvertedness, it was going into a hostile 1868 01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:10,920 Speaker 1: environment where I needed to prepare myself in case some 1869 01:27:10,960 --> 01:27:13,080 Speaker 1: shit went down in a way that I didn't with 1870 01:27:13,160 --> 01:27:15,240 Speaker 1: black people.
