I took my mom's 36 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: shopping yesterday for Mother's Day because I wasn't here on 37 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 1: Mother's Day two weeks later. Yes, she wanted she had 38 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: to take off on March. She actually was working on 39 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: Mother's Day, so I didn't bother coming home because she 40 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: couldn't do anything. Okay, So we planned a date that 41 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: she took off from work, and you know, I spent 42 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 1: the day with her. It took her shopping. Do you 43 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: feel like saying Macy's and Jason, you know what, I 44 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 1: don't say it, don't say what'd you get them? Um? 45 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: So we went to Berry Commons, which in New York 46 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: is the outlets, right, That's where she went. You know, 47 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: I was like, where do you want to go? We 48 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: can't go anywhere. So the only hard thing about shopping 49 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: right now is you have to wait on line to 50 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: go in stores. They only allow us turn amount of 51 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: people in at a time, and even so now yeah, yes, 52 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: and there's be a long line out of all. Outlets 53 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: are amazing. Let me tell y'all, if this outlets you, 54 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 1: you've been at the Envy. They tell me they haven't 55 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: seen you in a while. Yeah, because it's COVID. I've 56 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: been outside. It's like you're traveling right now. Okay, yeah, 57 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: working vacation, that's it. But other than that, I ain't 58 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: going out. Nope. It's COVID, right, so what aren't you? 59 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: I'm also vaccinated. I am vaccinated and a restaurant. You 60 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: can go to stores, but I don't really go out 61 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 1: like that. I'm just a vaccinated thing. But I don't 62 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: know how to vcinate. Thing is working. I don't know 63 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: if they've given you a VP treatment just because you vaccinated. Yeah, 64 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 1: I'm saying for yourself to go out. Part of the 65 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: reason why you get vaccinated is that you feel a 66 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: little bit somewhere. I do, but I still keep it 67 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: to where I need to be aware. I have to 68 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: go from working.

And supporters of Michaela Miller 147 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: pushing back on that suicide ruling for her. As you recall, 148 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: she is a teenager from Massachusetts whose death last month 149 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: had people in the small town that she called home 150 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: very confused about what happened. They are saying that she 151 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: died by suicide according to the medical examiner, but her 152 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: mother wants to find out the truth. She said, the 153 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: only thing I went out of all of this is 154 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: to find the truth. The conclusion they made yesterday as 155 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: far as the suicide ruling, her mother said, it is 156 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: the conclusion they made the first day they walked into 157 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: my house. There is no difference. But I know the 158 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: truth and it's not what they say. It was a 159 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: jagger that discovered Michaela's body in the woods near her 160 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: apartment complex, and they are saying she died by asphyxiating herself. 161 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: She was only sixteen years old, sophomore in high school. 162 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: There was a belt around her neck, which they determined 163 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: was not her belt, nor was it her mother's belt. 164 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: The belt that this seems did not belong to her 165 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: or her mom. She underwent an independent autopsy. Those results 166 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: were not made available, but Benjamin Crump, the attorney, said 167 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: he expects results from the family's autopsy to be released 168 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. But they did say earlier this month, 169 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: she was in an altercation. On the afternoon prior to 170 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: the discovery of her body, she had an altercation with 171 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: two other teens, a male and a female. They scuffled 172 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 1: at her apartment complex. There were five teams in total 173 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: with her earlier that afternoon, and her mother had actually 174 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: called and said that her daughter had been jumped, that 175 00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: she did have a bloody lip, and then a jagger 176 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: found her body steps away from her home. Well, if 177 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: it wasn't her belt, can't they check the belt for DNA. 178 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: We don't know the results of any of that yet, 179 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: So yeah, they are still ruling that it was a suicide. 180 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: And of course her mom and close friends and family 181 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: do not feel that they're investigating this, and they felt 182 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: a large part of it is the fact that she's 183 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: a black woman, and you know, they're very quick to 184 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: just say, okay, she killed herself instead of trying to 185 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: really dig deeper into what could have happened. Yeah, especially 186 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,319 Speaker 1: I check the belt for DNA. See whose DNA ends 187 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: up on the belt, and she's She was also gay, 188 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: and so they also feel like maybe her sexuality her 189 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: identity also influenced investigators to just kind of write it off. Yankes, 190 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: we send in healing energy to what's her last name? MICHAELA. Miller, 191 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: the Miller family.

Jocelyne Hernandez, you 385 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: ever recall when she was on Wendy and things got 386 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: a little bit heated on the show. Let's flash back 387 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: to that. And when people come in your show, especially 388 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,119 Speaker 1: black culture, you should be nicer to us, the ladies. 389 00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: You should give us her flys what we're here, and 390 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: you should tell us how proud you are of what 391 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 1: we've done in the streets. Well, I'm not proud of all. Now. 392 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: Can we get back to the show at hand. But 393 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: you have nothing to say about what my feeling. I 394 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 1: just said what I said. I don't apologize for anything. 395 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: This is what I do. You only do it to 396 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: the young black Spanish shorts coming up, you don't do 397 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: it to anybody else. It's sure, here's a flower, come on, 398 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: all right. Well, Joscelyn Hernandez has done an interview with 399 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 1: Entertainment tonight and whether or not she would have a 400 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: discussion with Wendy or forgive her for what she said. 401 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: Here's what she said. You know, I think she wanted 402 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: to talk to me, like the first day that it happened, 403 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't want to talk to 404 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 1: that bidh. I think that work when she threw the 405 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 1: flowers at me, when she was being real disrespectful and 406 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,959 Speaker 1: not acknowledging the fact that when latinas and black woman 407 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: sit on her couch, she comes out with a gun, right, 408 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: but she don't give me my props. But you always 409 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: want to compare me with people, and and I think 410 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: she does said to every person that's of color, because 411 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 1: she doesn't want nobody of color to be better than her. 412 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,760 Speaker 1: I wonder what reaction Jocelyn wanted from Wendy, though, Like 413 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:48,919 Speaker 1: after Joscelyn said what she said to Wendy, how does 414 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 1: she want Wendy to reply? Seems like she had an 415 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: expectation of how she expected Wendy to reply and didn't 416 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: get it. So I wonder what she wanted her to say. 417 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: I'm trying to do better, yea, I was thinking an apology, 418 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: like it seems like all right now. Wendy y'a also, 419 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: by the way, posted the picture of her feet and 420 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: talked about the disorder that she has. It is called 421 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: lymphoedema and it is characterized by an abnormal accumulation of 422 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: limp fluid and the tissues of an extremity or other 423 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: body part. So she said her doctor, doctor Laurie, is 424 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 1: the French lady who's helping me live with lymphadema. She 425 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 1: scrubs and understands, my disease is not curable, only manageable. 426 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 1: Oh yes, I'm wearing a sequence dress. Why not? Yeah, 427 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 1: I saw those pictures. I think that the reason they 428 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: look like that is because Wendy already has like a 429 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 1: big foot, you know what I mean, So you put 430 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: the disease on top of that. That's why it looks 431 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: the way a little bit. Yeah, it doesn't seem like 432 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: she could ever wear any sneaker or high heels. She 433 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: gotta be flip flops us.

This is why 495 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: we have to keep pushing the line on the George 496 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: Floyd Policing Act. A ball is qualified immunity. The only 497 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: reason cops are doing this is because they can. It's 498 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: really that simple, right, So two officers and he died 499 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: on the way to the hospital. He was taken into 500 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: custody after resisting arrest and a struggle with troopers. That's 501 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 1: all the reports said. By the way, I just wonder 502 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: how you lose like like like your humanity for people 503 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: like it's a human I would think that you got 504 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: to be some type of sociopath to treat other humans 505 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: in that way. Someone's on the ground and handcuffs, being tased, 506 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 1: you're kicking them, they're bleeding, you leave them on the floor. 507 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: What else supposed to do? Like at one pointing I'm scared, 508 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,120 Speaker 1: he said, I'm your brother. I'm saying, at what point 509 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 1: did your human conscience kick in and say, all right, 510 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,440 Speaker 1: I'm doing too much? Not Two officers involved in this 511 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: incident were reprimanded that night, and one of the officers 512 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 1: is on administrative leave because of a separate incident. The 513 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: other got a fifty hour suspension, and a third officer 514 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: died in a single vehicle crash in September. So the 515 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: family has filed a wrongful death suit that was filed 516 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: on May sixth last year, saying that he was brutalized. 517 00:25:58,160 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 1: You know how that happened, Charlomagne, Like you said, because 518 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: look less than That's when you see somebody and they 519 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: look less than you, they don't put you on the 520 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,399 Speaker 1: same level as them. That's how they can do somebody 521 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: like that. Okay. Now, a teacher in Idaho who the 522 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 1: one who disarmed a sixth grader after she opened fire 523 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: at a school earlier this month, is speaking for the 524 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,919 Speaker 1: first time. Christa Nighting. She is a math teacher at 525 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: Rigby Middle School and she was preparing her students for 526 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: their finals on the morning of May six when she 527 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 1: heard a gunshot from down the hall. Now, she said, 528 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: I told my students were going to leave, and here's 529 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: what she said happened. It was a little girl and 530 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: my brain couldn't quite grasp that. And so I looked 531 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: at her and I just quietly said, are you the shooter? 532 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: And she just watched me, and I just walked up 533 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,200 Speaker 1: to her and I put my hand over her hand, 534 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 1: and I just slowly pulled the gun out of her 535 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: hand and she allowed me to And then after I 536 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: got the gun, I just pulled her into a hug 537 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: with a been a little whig girl. Now, the sixth 538 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 1: grade student actually wounded two students in one adult, according 539 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: to the Jefferson County sarf's office, was the shoot a 540 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: little wig girl. Yeah, a little girl with a gun 541 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: shooting people and they walk up to it to take 542 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,199 Speaker 1: the gun. And when you think about Makaya Bryant, right, 543 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: you're telling me that a math teacher can disarm a 544 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 1: student with a gun. A math teacher a student with 545 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: a gun, but a training cop can't disarm a young 546 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: girl with a knife. Now. Kristin Knighting also said that 547 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 1: she held the girl after that. After a little while, 548 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 1: the girl started talking to me, and I could just 549 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: really tell she was very unhappy, and I just kept 550 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: hugging her and loving her and trying to let her 551 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: know that we're going to get through this together. And 552 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: so I looked at her and I just said, he 553 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: needs to put you in handcuffs. And she didn't respond. 554 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 1: She just led him, and he was very gentle and 555 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 1: very kind, and he just went ahead and took her 556 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: and put her in the police car. Salute to that 557 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: teach you what's her name, Kristin Knighting. Salute to Christa Knighting. 558 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 1: You did a great job, Christia. She had to know 559 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 1: that young girl. I don't know. I mean, it's just 560 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,439 Speaker 1: it's just wild that a math teacher can disarm him 561 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: a student with a gun, but a trained cop couldn't 562 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: disarm him a young girl with a knife. Now, she said. 563 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:14,639 Speaker 1: When the police came, she told the girl, you know, 564 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 1: he's got to put you in handcuffs. And she said 565 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 1: the police officer was very gentle and very kind of 566 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 1: course that's how I know, yo? What right? Ye know? 567 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: They don't release the names of the sixth grader, and 568 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: the girl's name has not been released.

Hey, 624 00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:27,959 Speaker 1: you know brand manager afro Tech, which is the world's 625 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: biggest black tech platform and uh digital platform and conference 626 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,479 Speaker 1: in the world. So I feel like I've been an 627 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: entrepreneur in my whole life. I've started off in the 628 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: music business. I did radio for twelve years. Actually, wow, 629 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: I thought I was going to be entrepreneur in the 630 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 1: music business, but I found my way into entrepreneurship and 631 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 1: technology very early in life. You have several media businesses, 632 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: a content creator, so I feel like I got something 633 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 1: to say and I feel like I've done the work. Also, 634 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 1: so you're cheating. That's why your podcast. You got experience 635 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: in the broadcasting field, you know. I feel like, look, look, 636 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 1: Steve Jobs, as this course said, you know, you can 637 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: never connect the dots looking forward. You can only connect 638 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 1: them looking backwards. So I feel like all the things 639 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,239 Speaker 1: that I've done led me to this moment. Absolutely. How 640 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: did you start investing? Because I always think that's interesting 641 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 1: because I think about how I had to learn about investing, 642 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,200 Speaker 1: and I feel like I started late in life, so 643 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: I'm playing catch up. But it's fascinating to me, and 644 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: I wish I would have known what to do earlier 645 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 1: and started earlier. Well, I would put it this way. 646 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: I'm an investor into myself, and so I do own 647 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: like a lot of investments. I have ethereum, bigcoin, the 648 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,719 Speaker 1: whole thing. But I'm an entrepreneur and so I'm invested 649 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: into my businesses more so than any other thing. I 650 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: feel like, you know, the biggest investment you can make 651 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: is into your own thing, whether or not you put 652 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: you know, ten thousand dollars twenty thousand dollars to some 653 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 1: other company, A lot of times that money can serve 654 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: you better when you put it into your own self, 655 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: your own education, and your own businesses, and you take 656 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 1: that leap, you learn more about the opportunity for wealth 657 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: creation and building legacy and anything that you want to do. 658 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 1: Then you can learn sometimes not all the time, but 659 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 1: sometimes by investing in other things. Expelled on that a 660 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: little bit more because you know, when people think investments, 661 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 1: that's what they think, you know, by real estate, investing stock, 662 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: get some big coin. But you said invest in yourself absolutely. 663 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like, you know, take the leap 664 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 1: on yourself. There's so many people who have the conversation 665 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: about if if I had X, I would do why. 666 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: I'm like, would just do why and figure it out 667 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 1: along the way, just just get in the game. So 668 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: many people have ideas about things that they want to 669 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: start businesses that they want to create, and they feel 670 00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,000 Speaker 1: like something is holding them back. And at the end 671 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: of the days, you holding yourself back. You know, you 672 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: took a chance on yourself when you started your your 673 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: radio career, you started you know it took a chance 674 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 1: in your stuff when you started your care your juice bar. 675 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,720 Speaker 1: I feel like, look, there's opportunities out here for everyone, 676 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: and there's there's nothing that makes people who have done 677 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,959 Speaker 1: it more special than the people who have it, other 678 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 1: than they took and gamble on themselves. And I feel 679 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: like more people, more of us specifically, should take a 680 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: gamble on ourselves because look, we have the keys, we 681 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 1: have the look. Number one, Black women have sparticularly in 682 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: the tech world, their startups feel at a lower rate 683 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 1: than every other startup. Every Black women startups feel at 684 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 1: a lower rate than every other company. Why is that 685 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,320 Speaker 1: this because it is support their received from each other. No, 686 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,640 Speaker 1: it's because black women know how to do know how 687 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: to make it work. Prepared black women. Black women you 688 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 1: know have to make it work. You know, it's in 689 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 1: the DNA. And so I feel like, you know, if 690 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: we figure out ways to encourage each other and create 691 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: ecosystem to support each other. We can all win in 692 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: this world. Wow. Yeah, because I always believe in taking 693 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: an educated risk right and I try to do whatever 694 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: I can to make sure that my business is straight 695 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: before because sometimes I feel like people want you to 696 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: invest in something, but they don't have it all together, 697 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 1: and so they say, how I have this thing, can you, 698 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 1: you know, help me with it? I need some money 699 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 1: to get it started. I'm like, okay, well, can I 700 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: see a business plan? Or who else are your partners? 701 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,800 Speaker 1: How much have you invested in yourself? Like what is 702 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: you doing? And a lot of times people don't have 703 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: that together. So people will ask me like can you 704 00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: invest in this or partner with me on this? And 705 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: I'll be like, well, okay, send me over a business 706 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: plan so I can just check it out, and they 707 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: never do it. Yeah, And you know, so I'm the 708 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: wrong person to like advocate like strongly for business plans. 709 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: I do believe you need to have something documented. I'm 710 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:12,919 Speaker 1: more like in the camp of like make a deck 711 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,839 Speaker 1: at least like a present. I make a power point 712 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 1: and just show me a couple of slides on what 713 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: this is, and then more than that, go try to 714 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: sell something. If somebody buys what you're trying to do. 715 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 1: That's the best proof that there is that you know, 716 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 1: what you have can actually work in the marketplace. And 717 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: Mike Tyson as his call. You know, everybody has a 718 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: plan till they get punched in the face. So go 719 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: trying to sell it. Go try to sell it if 720 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: you can get enough people to at least, you know, 721 00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: show me some sort of proof of concept that you 722 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: have that people want what you're trying to create. What 723 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: was the first investment Will Lucas made in himself, Oh, 724 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 1: the radio. Because I'm from Tolo, Ohio. You know, so 725 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: I feel like I wanted to be in the music 726 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,800 Speaker 1: business growing up, and I've figured I'm from Toledo, so 727 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, what's the closest thing to the music business. 728 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 1: So I met I was in high school and I 729 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 1: met a program director at a team summit and I said, 730 00:35:58,239 --> 00:35:59,759 Speaker 1: you know, look, my name's Will Lucas. I want to 731 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 1: be in the radio. I want to be in a 732 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: music business. I'm sorry, And he said, you know, the 733 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 1: best thing I can tell you do is find an 734 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 1: internship somewhere. And so he told me to come out 735 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: to the station because it was a line of team 736 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: trying to talk to him, and so I went out 737 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,879 Speaker 1: to the station like the next day and he said again, 738 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:15,479 Speaker 1: he gave me this musicians Friend catalog which has stuff 739 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: I couldn't afford, you know, music equipment. And he said again, 740 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 1: best thing I can tell you do is find you know, 741 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 1: an internship somewhere. And so my internship started that day. 742 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: It's working for free. And so three days into my internship, 743 00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 1: he put me on the air with him during the 744 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: five o'clock traffic jam. He had the three to eight slot. 745 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: I was on the air with him every day after that, 746 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: after I would go out of school, I would go 747 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:36,880 Speaker 1: out to the radio station and be on the air, 748 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: working for free. Six months after that, they gave me 749 00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: my own Saturday night show. I was number one in 750 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 1: the city on Saturday nights. Six months after that he 751 00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: went to the morning show. They gave me his afternoon 752 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,800 Speaker 1: drive show. And so I just happened to find I 753 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 1: found something in me that was good at radio at 754 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: the time, and so that internship. I believe so like 755 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: a lot of teenagers today are looking for like paid internships. 756 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: And I do believe, like, you know, because because some 757 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,760 Speaker 1: people can take advantage of interns. But I do believe 758 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: there's value in working for free, at least if it 759 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: gets you closer to your goal. Because sometimes it ain't 760 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:11,800 Speaker 1: just about the money, but if you can find a 761 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: way to get closer to the thing, that's worth it 762 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: because it'll pay off. My dad taught me, you know, 763 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: growing up, everybody pays in life. Some people pay now, 764 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 1: some people pay later. Everybody pays, and so sometimes they 765 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 1: ain't about the money. If it gets you closer, then 766 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: take that leap into you. You have to understand opportunity 767 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: when there's not a paycheck attached to it. Absolutely have 768 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: to recognize opportunity. Yeah, we live. We live in the 769 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,360 Speaker 1: world though where people want that instant gratification and I 770 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 1: respect that. You know, again, there's some people who don't 771 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: know how to treat interns, and so buy internship was 772 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 1: working like I actually got to work in the fields. 773 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: And so if you're just you know, taking advantage of 774 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 1: interns because you don't want to pay somebody else, and 775 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: you're just a bad leader, you know. But I feel 776 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 1: like if you're giving people a real opportunity to get 777 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: closer to their dreams, internships are for them, you know, 778 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:57,839 Speaker 1: Internships aren't not just necessarily about the company getting free labor. 779 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: It's about helping somebody else paying forward to help somebody 780 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 1: else get closer to the thing. Right. We got more 781 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: with Will Lucas. When we come back, it's the breakfast Club. 782 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 1: Go morning ej Envy Angela yee. Charlomagne the guy. We 783 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,280 Speaker 1: are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Will Lucas, Entrepreneur, 784 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 1: Content created and more. Now, Charlomagne, I want to ask 785 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:19,800 Speaker 1: you about a bitcoin because you mentioned it earlier. I 786 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 1: see cryptos taking a die in the stock marketing the day. 787 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 1: Why why isn't it It's super volatile? So number one, 788 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,879 Speaker 1: it's an unregulated currency, which is the value of It's 789 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 1: an unregulated currency, and so I feel like number one, 790 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 1: if you and if you are like day trading bitcoin 791 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:36,800 Speaker 1: like you are gambling? Are you going to the casino 792 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 1: every single day? And so I buy bitcoin, I buy 793 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 1: etherium religiously. I have like an on the auto buy 794 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 1: like every week. I just put a certain amount of 795 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: money towards those things. And I'm not looking to sell 796 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 1: it anytime soon because I believe one day bitcoin could 797 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,239 Speaker 1: hit like a real crazy number. And so there are 798 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:56,719 Speaker 1: folks who are selling off right literally right now in 799 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: this moment. You know, go ahead, because you're gonna you're 800 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 1: gonna make it good for people like me and good 801 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,400 Speaker 1: investors who like, Okay, I'm a buy those dips and 802 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: buy those crazy dips. It's like a year ago, it's 803 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:08,080 Speaker 1: like three thousand dollars, a couple of weeks ago, it's 804 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,560 Speaker 1: eighty thousand dollars, and so I'm like, it will hit 805 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: those numbers again. But if you're buying, particularly to day 806 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 1: trading those such a voluntile currency, you're playing casino every 807 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: single day, and that's not to me a wise investment strategy. 808 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 1: So even dipping in the day that don't mean nothing. 809 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 1: That's just the way. That's just the way it goes. 810 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: That's just the way. That's just the way to go. 811 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: I mean, the entire market goes up and down it 812 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: but it's just more stable. So it's the dips aren't 813 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 1: as the swings aren't as hard. But like with things 814 00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,320 Speaker 1: like with bitcoin, because it's such a new it's not 815 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:41,439 Speaker 1: really a currency because it's because it's so fresh, people 816 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 1: don't know how to value it, and so those swings 817 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: are going to be wild and crazy. So I'm buying. 818 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 1: I'm into holding because I believe it could get to 819 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 1: a specific number no matter what it does in the meantime. Yeah, 820 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 1: I'm scared of it, just because I don't quite understand it. 821 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 1: I was talking to about financial people about it, and 822 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,200 Speaker 1: they would like, you know, same thing you just said. 823 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,120 Speaker 1: It's not regulated, but they do feel like crypto is 824 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: here to stay. We just don't know which one, yeah, 825 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 1: for sure. And so I'm like, you know, it's like 826 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: building portfolio, like you don't put all your things in 827 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:09,680 Speaker 1: one brand, You don't put all your you shouldn't put 828 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 1: all of it into one coin. And so again, I've 829 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: liked coin also I forgot I forgot about that when 830 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 1: I have light coin, Etherem and Bitcoin, and I'm I'm 831 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: banking on my ultimate belief that I believe it's going 832 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: to be humongous. I don't know which one again, but 833 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm not banking on what it says today. I believe 834 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,160 Speaker 1: ultimately these will be very valuable tokens. Absolutely. Is it 835 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:32,399 Speaker 1: too late because some people will say, well, you kind 836 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 1: of missed the boat if you didn't invest earlier. What 837 00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: are your thoughts on that it'll be even later? Tomorrow. 838 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 1: You know, you know, I'm like, get in the game. 839 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: You know again, these you're you're seeing it swing. The 840 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:46,720 Speaker 1: worst thing you can do is sit on the sideline 841 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 1: and try to you know, have a crystal ball like 842 00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 1: nobody knows and so at the worst thing you can 843 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 1: do is just sit back and wait. Just get in 844 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 1: the game. Well, what should we invest in that will 845 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,879 Speaker 1: probably make a comeback since the world is opening back 846 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 1: up a little bit after the black people? You should 847 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 1: invest in black people. You should invest you should invest. 848 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: Look the same thing I said about like bitcoin THEORYM like, 849 00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:11,800 Speaker 1: I believe ultimately black people win. And so I'm like, 850 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 1: you know, so I'm like, invest in black people like 851 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: we ought to culture were the way we talk about food, 852 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,080 Speaker 1: were talking about sports, We're talking about dance, We're talking 853 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:24,320 Speaker 1: I mean, invest in black people. No, I listen, I 854 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:26,879 Speaker 1: agree with you. Um you know you everything you're saying, 855 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:28,880 Speaker 1: I agree with saying that you invest in yourself. But yes, 856 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 1: invest in black people. That's what I love to do. 857 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 1: I say that when you pour into other people like 858 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: you can't lose, you can't. I mean, look, you know, 859 00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 1: I was asking a VC on the podcast Black Tech, 860 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: Green Money wherever you get your podcasts. Um, But I 861 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: was asking the VC, like, you know, because black people 862 00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 1: run the culture. You know, we are we over index 863 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,080 Speaker 1: on Twitter, we over index on Snapchat, we over index 864 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 1: on TikTok, and we create those trending topics. Why is 865 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 1: it if we create the culture, then why is it 866 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 1: we get less? Like why don't they just go to 867 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 1: the source but they invest instead? And people who wear 868 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: sandals in Patagonia or whatever, like like, why is it 869 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 1: those people get the money and the people who are 870 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,759 Speaker 1: actually creating the things and making them popular don't get it? 871 00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 1: And so this that's the million dollar question, It's like, 872 00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 1: and so I believe like if again, if you ultimately 873 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 1: believe that black culture wins, which we already do, so 874 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: that's not that's a foregone conclusion, then you shouldn't invest 875 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 1: in black people. And so like the problem is not 876 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: enough of us consider building technology tools and platforms as 877 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: like a thing. Like so many of our kids know 878 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 1: how to use TikTok, but they don't realize that there's 879 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: somebody on the other side building TikTok. And so my 880 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 1: mission is to make sure that we have that representation 881 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: so we know that Okay, not only is this an 882 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 1: app I'm dolloading, but there's somebody on the other side 883 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: of getting the piece every time I open this up. 884 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: And so that's what that's the that's the mission I'm on. 885 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:55,320 Speaker 1: Is it our fault because we're not necessarily in the 886 00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,840 Speaker 1: fields or industries we may need to be in. No, 887 00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean that's this Number one. This is why AFRO exists, 888 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 1: is to not only give us that representation of that 889 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 1: they are black people really out here doing it like 890 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 1: we are really out here making money in technology. I 891 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 1: mean I can talk about people, you know, tens of 892 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:14,560 Speaker 1: millions of dollars, you know, like the og you know, 893 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: like my guy who's like the Michael Jordan poster on 894 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 1: my walls, guy named Paul jud I mean, this guy's 895 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,760 Speaker 1: you know, dozens of patterns, you know, super duper millionaire. 896 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy who you consider like 897 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: tech people nerds, like this guy walks around like Lubetans 898 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:28,840 Speaker 1: and you know he look like Envy, you know, like 899 00:43:28,880 --> 00:43:33,080 Speaker 1: you know this he walks around looking like just super 900 00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 1: just super duper rich. I'm like, and so I got 901 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 1: into podcasting because I had a white advisor to one 902 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,400 Speaker 1: of my startups asked me what would it take to 903 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 1: get more black kids interested in tech, and I said, like, 904 00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: they need to see like a black Mark Zuckerbird. They 905 00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 1: need to see somebody who looks like them and it 906 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 1: realizing success. And at the end of that conversation, I 907 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: kicked myself something like, we have super successful black people 908 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: in tech, we just don't know who they are. And 909 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,959 Speaker 1: so I'm like, all these years of radio, I'm gonna 910 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 1: start a podcast. And so it's still still in iTunes 911 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: call of ten Podcasts because I was only gonna do 912 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:08,879 Speaker 1: ten episodes, one of ten, two up, so it's called 913 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,960 Speaker 1: of ten Podcasts. And so I had like these super 914 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: high profile in the tech in the tech sector black 915 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:19,439 Speaker 1: people on my show, and I'm like, there's so many 916 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 1: more of us out here who are really really doing it. Um, 917 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 1: we just don't have enough representation. And that's changing now 918 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: with things like Afrotech and black tech cree money like 919 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,160 Speaker 1: Robert Refskin, Yeah, I mean, like we really out here. 920 00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,320 Speaker 1: You're really out here, and he's like one of the 921 00:44:32,440 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 1: youngest black billionaires. Yes, you're absolutely right, yeah, and he's 922 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 1: in I forgot exactly what he does in the text pace. 923 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 1: But I know it's tech. Yeah, I mean so, but 924 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: there are so many. There are so many, you know, 925 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 1: I mean they're the black women you I mean, You've 926 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: got like Jessica Matthew's right here in Harlem, Like she's 927 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 1: building a power company like energy sustainability, like like, well 928 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: you should have justice. Like Jessica is really the truth, 929 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 1: like she if you ask you, you should tell you. 930 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 1: She's like the mix of Bill Night of Science Guy 931 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,880 Speaker 1: and Beyonce, Like she is really really the truth. I mean, 932 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: but you've got you've got super successful black people in 933 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,879 Speaker 1: tech who are getting the bag, who are really making money, 934 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,880 Speaker 1: and you know, more of us need to show ourselves, 935 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 1: like we are really on the other side of these applications, 936 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 1: on other side of these solutions, making these things that 937 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 1: people are using every day. We got more with Will Lucas. 938 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 1: When we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast club, 939 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 1: Good Morning Burning. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne 940 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 1: the guy. We are the breakfast club.

He'll tell you and help 943 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 1: you where you should be putting your money. Now, I 944 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:39,120 Speaker 1: have a question. When you talk apps and you talk tech, 945 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: A lot of that is expensive. How expensive is it 946 00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:43,480 Speaker 1: to create your own app? And you know, how do 947 00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: we get money for that? I number one. I love 948 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:49,000 Speaker 1: that you ask that questions because number one, tech is 949 00:45:49,040 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 1: like the gold Rush, and you don't have to have 950 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 1: the pics and shovels, Like you can literally go to 951 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:58,480 Speaker 1: your library and cold and app on that computer. Like 952 00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,839 Speaker 1: there are so many free applications that teach you both 953 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 1: how to code and that you can use, like these 954 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 1: open source platforms that you don't have to have, um, 955 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 1: you know the big You don't have to have down payments, 956 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: you know, like you do have to have in in 957 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: to buy a mortgage. Um, you don't have to have, 958 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 1: you know, a U haul or a bulldozer to go 959 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: build a thing. Like you can literally sit on a computer, 960 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,919 Speaker 1: on a borrowed computer, upload that code to the cloud, 961 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,319 Speaker 1: and any computer you go to, that same code will 962 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:30,840 Speaker 1: be there. And then you can launch that application to 963 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:34,359 Speaker 1: whatever platform, whether it be iTunes, will will play for free. 964 00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: And the biggest thing is knowing how to engage people. 965 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,359 Speaker 1: It's It's like learning how to code is one thing 966 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 1: the real kicker and the people who are successful. It's 967 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:45,399 Speaker 1: not just the people who know how to write code, 968 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 1: it's also the people who can engage a team. And 969 00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 1: so if you can sell somebody to come along that 970 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:52,720 Speaker 1: road with you, whether that be if you're the coder 971 00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 1: and you're not the person who can go sell, but 972 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:57,320 Speaker 1: you can engage somebody who can who's like the mouthpiece 973 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 1: and can be the front face of it, then you 974 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: can win. If you are the front face and you 975 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,240 Speaker 1: got the mouth but you got and you got an idea, 976 00:47:03,280 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 1: but you you need to then be able to engage 977 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,880 Speaker 1: somebody who can code. And so I feel like you know, 978 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 1: number one, there is a zero cost to entry, zero 979 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,920 Speaker 1: cost to entry in the tech world and the upside 980 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 1: can be unlimited. And also like on top of that, 981 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 1: like not everybody's trying to build a Google. Like if 982 00:47:21,680 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 1: you are a barber, like my guys that squire, Like, 983 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,320 Speaker 1: if you are a barber and you learn how to 984 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 1: have a tech enabled platform to where you can scale, 985 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 1: you know as a small business, you can win like 986 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,440 Speaker 1: where like like I love talking about barber's because I'm like, 987 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,760 Speaker 1: if you are a barber and you are not learning 988 00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,759 Speaker 1: learning how to employ technology, like where's the black bo ricks? 989 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:45,080 Speaker 1: Like where's the black supercuts? You know, they built a 990 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 1: model that scales, and so like, where are we in 991 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:50,960 Speaker 1: this world? And the way that we get there is 992 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 1: by employing technology against those, um those lifestyle sort of businesses. 993 00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 1: What way will you advise kids that say, hey, I'm 994 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 1: into tech, I'm watching the Breakfast Club? What school would 995 00:48:01,640 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: you say they should go to? A look forward to 996 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 1: go into to learn more about tech? The University of YouTube. 997 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,839 Speaker 1: That's where you go. Don't say that. I'm just being 998 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 1: I agree with you, but it's a lot of people 999 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,839 Speaker 1: on YouTube giving out a lot of bad information too. 1000 00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:15,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, look, number one, if you learn how if 1001 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 1: you're trying to learn how to code, it's the University 1002 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 1: of YouTube. Period. Like and you got I mean, then 1003 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:24,839 Speaker 1: you you also have number one, shout out the university leader. 1004 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:26,879 Speaker 1: I'm a board member at the university, so I gotta 1005 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,600 Speaker 1: shot them. We got nice computer like engineering programs. But 1006 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,800 Speaker 1: it's honestly the University of YouTube. I mean, if you 1007 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 1: want to learn how to code, University of YouTube. You 1008 00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 1: can learn Python, you can learn rails, you can learn 1009 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,239 Speaker 1: and see ship. If you can learn whatever, it is 1010 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: you want to learn, and there are people who are 1011 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,880 Speaker 1: really good at teaching these things on these platforms, and 1012 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 1: that's period, point blank. That's it. Well, who are the 1013 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 1: people could have been? There's a lot of programs to 1014 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: like Black Girls Code, Isn't it? Absolutely yeah? Shout out 1015 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 1: to shout out to Kimberley from Black Girls Code like 1016 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: number one, Like it's it's hard to say, like you 1017 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,319 Speaker 1: you should listen to this person versus that person, because 1018 00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:06,959 Speaker 1: specifically people learn in different ways, and so some people 1019 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,799 Speaker 1: are super visual learners, like so I can do front 1020 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 1: end development, like I need to be able to refresh 1021 00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 1: my screen and see the code I just wrote, like, 1022 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:16,320 Speaker 1: but there are other people who are back end developers 1023 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,640 Speaker 1: who you don't see the work. You don't see the 1024 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 1: result of their work on the front end of the 1025 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 1: device or the computer. And so it's really depending on 1026 00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 1: how you learn. So I advise you go to YouTube, 1027 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 1: you search, okay, how to build an app? Then you 1028 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 1: can build a number one, You can build apps without code, 1029 00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: like there we are getting to a place in our 1030 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,120 Speaker 1: society where you don't have to learn necessarily how to code. 1031 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,239 Speaker 1: I'm blinking up, but it's it's called apps. Without code. 1032 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:40,960 Speaker 1: So if you just Google apps without code, it's a 1033 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:44,320 Speaker 1: black girl who's running this program, and you can literally 1034 00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 1: build and deploy apps to the different platforms without knowing 1035 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,359 Speaker 1: how to code. And because the interfaces today are such 1036 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: that you are accommodated with tools where you can literally 1037 00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:01,840 Speaker 1: build applications and into with integrated other third party softwares. 1038 00:50:02,239 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 1: That is really like Dragon Drop sort of sort of situations. 1039 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 1: What about the people on YouTube who think that technology 1040 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 1: causes covid'll learn how to code from that? Hey, well 1041 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:17,440 Speaker 1: I want to I want to add on to that 1042 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:19,879 Speaker 1: to the New York Public Library because you know, I'm 1043 00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: an ambassador ambassador for them. They also have free classes 1044 00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 1: that kind of code. Yeah, so there's a lot of 1045 00:50:25,960 --> 00:50:29,240 Speaker 1: places where you can get that information. Like you said, YouTube, 1046 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: nice and easy, you can go to the Yeah, there's 1047 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,520 Speaker 1: so many different places. I think Facebook does a program 1048 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,360 Speaker 1: also where you can come in and learn how to code. 1049 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 1: So do you start your children and start your children 1050 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,839 Speaker 1: as best you can early? Because number one is it's 1051 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,360 Speaker 1: a it's about representation number one. So you have to 1052 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 1: show them like what does the end result potentially look like? 1053 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:52,040 Speaker 1: And so if you can expose your your your children 1054 00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:55,759 Speaker 1: to stories, um to success stories because again, like they 1055 00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 1: want to be Lebron because they see Lebron. But if 1056 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:01,399 Speaker 1: they want to be you know again, my daughter said 1057 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 1: area on the grounded because they see area on the grounded. 1058 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:05,719 Speaker 1: But if you can show you your kids you know 1059 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 1: these again Jessica Matthews Kimberly from Black Girl's Cold The 1060 00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:11,879 Speaker 1: Paul Judges of the World, like, if you can show 1061 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,520 Speaker 1: your kids these people, then they see people who look 1062 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,640 Speaker 1: like them and are really really doing it. It really 1063 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:19,839 Speaker 1: just boils down the money. Like when you see somebody 1064 00:51:19,920 --> 00:51:22,440 Speaker 1: like Robert Smith, and Robert Smith can pay forty million 1065 00:51:22,520 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 1: people can't pay forty million dollars to the class of 1066 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:27,880 Speaker 1: more healthy. Like he got that kind of money. Now 1067 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 1: you start paying attention to what he does. Absolutely, absolutely 1068 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 1: we need we need to highlight these stories. And I 1069 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: appreciate the work that you guys are doing here, you know, 1070 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:38,280 Speaker 1: highlighting these stories, because this is like super important because 1071 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:41,000 Speaker 1: only if the NBA is only gonna get so big, 1072 00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 1: it's only gonna be so many spots on these teams. 1073 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 1: But isn't it isn't you know, unlimited opportunity in this 1074 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:51,479 Speaker 1: world of creating efficiencies that at scale, which which bids 1075 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:55,040 Speaker 1: the byproduct of the technology, where anybody with a good 1076 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 1: idea can employ technology to make that idea come become real, 1077 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,160 Speaker 1: and that people can be using it all over the 1078 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 1: world and you can really change your life by using this. 1079 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,759 Speaker 1: My last question, why why is the Black Tech Green 1080 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:13,240 Speaker 1: Money podcast necessary? These are the conversations we have amongst ourselves. 1081 00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:15,319 Speaker 1: I'll say that these are These are the places where 1082 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,520 Speaker 1: the Black Tech Green Money is a place where those 1083 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: people who have done it, the people who have done 1084 00:52:20,680 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 1: what you want to do, can have the conversations with 1085 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 1: us that they can't have on other stages and other podcasts. 1086 00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 1: These are conversations, the insights. If you want to build 1087 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 1: legacy and wealth utilizing tech or in tech, and you 1088 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 1: want to know how to do it strategically, how to 1089 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:40,360 Speaker 1: do it? What are the tactics, not just like some 1090 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:45,240 Speaker 1: you know, overarching global general you know response to questions, 1091 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 1: but actually how do you do it? This is the 1092 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:50,319 Speaker 1: podcast you need to be listening to if you are 1093 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,239 Speaker 1: if you are aiming to build wealth, if you are 1094 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 1: aiming to use tech to build a scalable solution, this 1095 00:52:57,760 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 1: is the podcast you need to be listening to, especially 1096 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: if you're black, because if you are trying to build 1097 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 1: wealth and legacy towards the future, not like looking backwards, 1098 00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:08,800 Speaker 1: because the past is gone, the pre COVID world is gone. 1099 00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,319 Speaker 1: There is a new world. And what Black Tech Green 1100 00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:14,680 Speaker 1: Money allows us to do is have these conversations from 1101 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,960 Speaker 1: our perspective to find out how we can win.

So and 1108 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,680 Speaker 1: make sure you check out the Black Tech Green Money 1109 00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 1: podcast on the Black Effect. iHeartRadio podcast Network. Will I 1110 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,360 Speaker 1: thank you for your partnership. I thank Afrotech for the partnership. 1111 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 1: Salute through the Morgan and let's just keep let's just 1112 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 1: keep teaching our people. Man, thank you. See the guy, 1113 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast Club Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy Angela 1114 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,160 Speaker 1: Yee Charlomagne, the guy. We are the Breakfast Club. Good morning. 1115 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:02,279 Speaker 1: It's a Thursday, and let's get to these rumors. Let's go. 1116 00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:13,200 Speaker 1: This is the rum of report with Angela years so 1117 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:16,879 Speaker 1: for the Hollywood Reporter, Billy Porter has decided to tell 1118 00:54:17,000 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 1: some very important parts of his story. He said that 1119 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:23,120 Speaker 1: he is HIV positive, but he also said the diagnosis 1120 00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,759 Speaker 1: came at one of his lowest points. He said it 1121 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:28,280 Speaker 1: was two thousand and seven, the worst year of his life, 1122 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,280 Speaker 1: and he was on the precipice of obscurity for about 1123 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,920 Speaker 1: a decade or so. He said, By February, I have 1124 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 1: been diagnosed with type two diabetes. By March, I signed 1125 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 1: bankruptcy papers, and by June I was diagnosed HIV positive. 1126 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: Now here's what he had to say about going to 1127 00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 1: trauma therapy. I started trauma therapy to begin the process 1128 00:54:49,719 --> 00:54:53,920 Speaker 1: of healing, as opposed to how I had been navigating 1129 00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,400 Speaker 1: through the world up until that time. You know, my 1130 00:54:57,600 --> 00:55:02,759 Speaker 1: trauma served me, My story served me in terms of 1131 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 1: forward motion for a very long time. Alright. He goes 1132 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:11,319 Speaker 1: on to talk about how the diagnosis came about. Even 1133 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 1: he said he had a pimple on his butt, and 1134 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,840 Speaker 1: it got larger and larger and harder and harder, and 1135 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 1: then it started to hurt. And one day he was like, 1136 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 1: I got to get this taken care of. So he 1137 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,919 Speaker 1: said at the front desk. The queen at the front 1138 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:24,080 Speaker 1: desk asked him, you want an HIV test? The only 1139 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 1: ten dollars, and he said yes, time and he was 1140 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: getting tested every six months and he went in got 1141 00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 1: his pimple drained, and then he got tested. The doctor 1142 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: came back and told him he was positive, so that 1143 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:36,719 Speaker 1: that's an actual symptom of HIV like when you get 1144 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 1: He said it was just a fluke that he had 1145 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:41,359 Speaker 1: that and then he was in there. They asked him, 1146 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 1: do you want to get a test just because you're here? 1147 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:45,360 Speaker 1: You're here. You had to clear that up because you 1148 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 1: made it seem like a pimple on the butt is 1149 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:50,040 Speaker 1: a is a way that people could well quote I 1150 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:52,959 Speaker 1: quote it exactly what he says could happen. I've gotten 1151 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,600 Speaker 1: knows often. I was like, huh, okay, you get pimples 1152 00:55:56,640 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: on your butt life, maybe you need to make sure 1153 00:56:00,680 --> 00:56:04,319 Speaker 1: that you scrub and exfoliate your butt. Really, it doesn't 1154 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:09,319 Speaker 1: get clogged up. Just like you expoliate your you want 1155 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 1: to get rid of that dead lay your skin so 1156 00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 1: it can come out foliate your butt. Yeah, you don't 1157 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 1: use exfoli my face. On my face, I get a 1158 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:19,960 Speaker 1: nice scrub. They had some good ones from Shame moist 1159 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 1: share as a nice scrub. Yeah, you should scrub your 1160 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 1: whole body. Try to cheek full cheeks. Yeah all right. Now, 1161 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:28,320 Speaker 1: he did let everybody around him know that he was 1162 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 1: HIV positive, but he couldn't bring himself to share it publicly, 1163 00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 1: and he also was afraid to tell his mom at first. 1164 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 1: The manifestation of the shame was not being able to 1165 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 1: tell my mother. But my mother having been through so 1166 00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:46,840 Speaker 1: much already, there was already so much of it in 1167 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 1: her life that she had to deal with because of 1168 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,719 Speaker 1: my queerness, that I just didn't want her to have 1169 00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: to live through. There, I told you so of it all. 1170 00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 1: You know, I had made a pact with myself that 1171 00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:02,279 Speaker 1: I would let her die before I told her. Man, 1172 00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 1: I mean, that has to be a tough one to 1173 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 1: reveal to the world. Like you know, many people probably 1174 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: and you know entertainment and Hollywood who are HIV positive, 1175 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:12,000 Speaker 1: but don't say anything like this thing about in our lifetimes. 1176 00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:15,399 Speaker 1: I can only think of three people that went public, right, 1177 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure it's some mother's but man's. It's a lot 1178 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: of people who'll be keeping nothing himself. So for Billy 1179 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 1: to live his truth in that way, that had to 1180 00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: be difficult, right, And like you said, he did tell 1181 00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:27,080 Speaker 1: a lot of the people around him, so everybody around 1182 00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:30,800 Speaker 1: him knew, but he just never publicly told everyone. And 1183 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: here's what happened when he had his conversation with his mom. 1184 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:34,760 Speaker 1: I haven't seen her in a while. Let me just 1185 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: call and talk to her. Not even two minutes in 1186 00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 1: the conversation, she was like, what's wrong. Mother always knows 1187 00:57:41,080 --> 00:57:45,320 Speaker 1: And I said nothing, nothing, and she's like, son, please 1188 00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: tell me what's wrong. So I ripped the band aid 1189 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:52,000 Speaker 1: off and I just told her and she said, I 1190 00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:57,640 Speaker 1: love you. I've always loved you. That will never change. Damn. 1191 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 1: And now now he's saying it's time to grow up 1192 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 1: and move on because shame is destructive and if not 1193 00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:06,000 Speaker 1: dealt with, it can destroy everything in its path. And 1194 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:08,440 Speaker 1: he also talks about the advancements in medicine that have 1195 00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 1: dramatically increased the quality of life for people with HIV. Yeah, 1196 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:13,440 Speaker 1: I mean, he didn't know the world that, but I mean, 1197 00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 1: in his position, if he wants to be an example 1198 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:18,479 Speaker 1: the others living with HIV, I understand and just living 1199 00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 1: your truth is free and right. Yeah, and I commend 1200 00:58:20,760 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 1: him for that. Man. I remember doing a panel with 1201 00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 1: about all the advancements they've made with HIV medicines and 1202 00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 1: being on a panel with people who are HIV positive 1203 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 1: that have very productive lives for decades. So you can't 1204 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: live with HIV and live a fruitful life. And so 1205 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 1: I do commend him for coming out and being able 1206 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,000 Speaker 1: to say that. You know, we do HIV testing every 1207 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:44,520 Speaker 1: year at the Juice Bar, and so it's always interesting 1208 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 1: to me because I get tested every year too when 1209 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,320 Speaker 1: everyone comes in and does it. And there have been 1210 00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:51,920 Speaker 1: people who have tested positive for HIV when they came 1211 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:54,800 Speaker 1: in to do their tests. But it is important. Yeah, yeah, 1212 00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:56,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want I don't want to know that news 1213 00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,000 Speaker 1: on the spot not there well, no one like they 1214 00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:02,440 Speaker 1: don't tell me who it is Drivate. They have counselors 1215 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 1: on hand and everything so that they can go ahead 1216 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:07,400 Speaker 1: and start you in the process of making sure that 1217 00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 1: you're you know, eating what you're supposed to eat, making 1218 00:59:10,080 --> 00:59:11,720 Speaker 1: sure that you're taking the medicine, all of those things. 1219 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:13,960 Speaker 1: It's important to know. So you can't have a healthy life. 1220 00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 1: And you know, you see people like Billy Porter like 1221 00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:19,840 Speaker 1: removes the stigma of whatever you think, you know, living 1222 00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:24,440 Speaker 1: with magic, And you know, I'm always curious to to 1223 00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:28,320 Speaker 1: you know, magic Johnson has HIV is no longer detected 1224 00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:31,960 Speaker 1: in the system. Nobody ever says, how is that true. 1225 00:59:31,960 --> 00:59:33,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if that's true. Yeah, he said it's 1226 00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 1: no longer detected in the system. He didn't say he 1227 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:37,040 Speaker 1: didn't have it. He said it's not detected in this 1228 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:39,720 Speaker 1: in this body, all the different cocktails of medication that 1229 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:43,800 Speaker 1: you can take, Yeah, you can go on and be fine. 1230 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:47,320 Speaker 1: So all right, well that is your rumor report.

Okay, on the attempted coup of this country 1257 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:19,240 Speaker 1: on January six, I speak about the insurrection in this 1258 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:21,479 Speaker 1: country as often as I can, because that is something 1259 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,960 Speaker 1: we should never forget, especially when it doesn't seem like 1260 01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:27,920 Speaker 1: anyone is truly being held responsible. In my forty two 1261 01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:31,120 Speaker 1: years of existence on this planet, I have never seen 1262 01:01:31,160 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 1: a greater example of white privilege than what happened on 1263 01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:37,480 Speaker 1: January six. That was a textbook definition of a coup, okay, 1264 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 1: a sudden, violent and illegal seizure of power from a government. 1265 01:01:41,280 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 1: We talk about people being unpatriotic, what's more unpatriotic than treason? Okay. 1266 01:01:45,800 --> 01:01:49,040 Speaker 1: I said to y'all months ago that Democrats, Republicans, you know, 1267 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:51,600 Speaker 1: any American, black, white, Puerto Rican an Asian, if you 1268 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 1: truly care about this country, you will never let them 1269 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,320 Speaker 1: forget what happened on January six. You will constantly remind 1270 01:01:57,440 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 1: folks of the domestic terrorists that star I'm the Capitol Building, 1271 01:02:01,080 --> 01:02:03,880 Speaker 1: and you would make sure every single member of Vanilla 1272 01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 1: Isis and Al Cracker are held responsible for the act 1273 01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:11,480 Speaker 1: of treason they committed in this country. But no, y'all 1274 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 1: treat an attempt to coop at this country like it's 1275 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:15,120 Speaker 1: just a bunch of kids. While in that that spring 1276 01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:17,160 Speaker 1: break like it was like it was a brunch that 1277 01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:19,880 Speaker 1: got a little rowdy. What message did that sinto the 1278 01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,120 Speaker 1: rest of the world. That's the question I've been asking 1279 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,760 Speaker 1: myself since that attempted coup happens, And I don't understand 1280 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:28,520 Speaker 1: why it's not TV commercials, billboards, magazine ads that constantly 1281 01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:31,600 Speaker 1: remind folks of what Donald Trump and his rhetoric caused 1282 01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:34,360 Speaker 1: to happen in this country on January six, Any human 1283 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 1: being who truly gives a damn would be all for 1284 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 1: this independent commission on the insurrection. If you don't know 1285 01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,920 Speaker 1: what that commission is, it's simple, the agreement which set 1286 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 1: up an independent commission to investigate the failings that allowed 1287 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 1: a pro Trump mob to overrun the Capitol. Why wouldn't 1288 01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,040 Speaker 1: anyone who claims to be a patriot, who claims to 1289 01:02:53,120 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: be America first, why wouldn't they want this? Why wouldn't 1290 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,680 Speaker 1: they want this bill? Because this why, I mean, why 1291 01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't they want this independent mission? Because this independent commission 1292 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 1: will have people looking under the hood to see what's 1293 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 1: really going on, and it would make folks take a 1294 01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:10,240 Speaker 1: real deep look into the road. The former celebrity and 1295 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,720 Speaker 1: chief played in the coup, and how he communicated with 1296 01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,800 Speaker 1: others in the GOP that day, and how he responded 1297 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:20,240 Speaker 1: to rioters as they invaded the capital. Basically, Donald Trump 1298 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:23,960 Speaker 1: is Nino Brown, the GOP is the CMB, and this 1299 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:28,120 Speaker 1: independent commission to investigate the attempted coup well the effects. 1300 01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:31,200 Speaker 1: So of course the CMB or GOP with block an 1301 01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:33,800 Speaker 1: investigation because they know this is bigger than Nino Brown. 1302 01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 1: And Trump got a list to prove it, and if 1303 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 1: he goes down, he's taken a lot of people with him. 1304 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:40,480 Speaker 1: It's really that simple. So like most things, it passed 1305 01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:42,760 Speaker 1: the House would probably won't pass the Senate. Would you 1306 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:44,440 Speaker 1: like to hear with g money I mean, I mean 1307 01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:47,480 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell had to say about this independent commission and 1308 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:50,200 Speaker 1: why he doesn't support it. Listen, I've made the decision 1309 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 1: to oppose the House Democrats slatted an unbalanced proposal or 1310 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:57,760 Speaker 1: another commission to study the events of January the sex 1311 01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:02,160 Speaker 1: is everybody surely knows. I repeatedly made my views about 1312 01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:05,920 Speaker 1: the events of January the six very clear. So, mister President, 1313 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:08,520 Speaker 1: it's not at all clear what new fox or additional 1314 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 1: investigation yet another commission could actually lay on top of 1315 01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:16,360 Speaker 1: existing approached by law enforcement in Congress. Why does mister 1316 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:18,760 Speaker 1: McConnell talk like he's got his jaw wired? Is that 1317 01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:21,280 Speaker 1: a consequence of having no lips. I mean, damn, he 1318 01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:23,720 Speaker 1: could be a ventriloquist. I mean he actually is, because 1319 01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:25,680 Speaker 1: he speaks for the GOP and most of them his puppets. 1320 01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:28,160 Speaker 1: But he said something in that statement that I haven't 1321 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 1: an answer to. He said, it's not at all clear 1322 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:35,960 Speaker 1: what new facts are. Additional investigation, yet another commission could 1323 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:39,480 Speaker 1: actually lay on top of existing efforts by law enforcement 1324 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 1: in Congress. Well, I'll tell you what a deeper investigation 1325 01:04:42,880 --> 01:04:47,600 Speaker 1: could find, all the players involved, including the politicians. And furthermore, 1326 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:51,800 Speaker 1: you can't go deep enough on what happened on January six. 1327 01:04:52,080 --> 01:04:55,320 Speaker 1: Domestic terrorists from the Capitol and tried to overthrow the 1328 01:04:55,440 --> 01:05:00,880 Speaker 1: results of a presidential election. That's not normal anyway, especially 1329 01:05:00,920 --> 01:05:03,840 Speaker 1: in America. That's death by firing squad in some countries. 1330 01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 1: I read a story and the Associated Press from July 1331 01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:09,360 Speaker 1: twenty seventh, nineteen ninety about forty two men, forty two 1332 01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:13,640 Speaker 1: convicted coup plotters who were executed by firing squad. Okay, 1333 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:15,920 Speaker 1: I think this happened to Nigeria. So when you see 1334 01:05:15,960 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 1: how history has shown us how other countries handle their 1335 01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 1: attempted coups, it makes you wonder why is America handling 1336 01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 1: their attempted coups so whitely, I mean lightly. You can't 1337 01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:29,920 Speaker 1: go deep enough on any investigation regarding January six. I'll 1338 01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 1: tell you, like a COVID test that told me when 1339 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:35,480 Speaker 1: I asked, how deep will he go? And he said 1340 01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 1: until he feels resistance. Well, we're getting resistance now, okay 1341 01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:42,960 Speaker 1: from ninety percent of the GOP. But I say go deeper. Now. 1342 01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,040 Speaker 1: I have to commend to thirty five Republicans who have 1343 01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:47,919 Speaker 1: joined Democrats to support the measure. But I'm not giving 1344 01:05:47,960 --> 01:05:49,680 Speaker 1: you too much credit because it's a damn shame that 1345 01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:51,560 Speaker 1: we live in a country where we have to commend 1346 01:05:51,640 --> 01:05:54,400 Speaker 1: up politicians for doing the right thing. Okay, especially in 1347 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:57,520 Speaker 1: regard to domestic terrorism. Now, I don't trust too many 1348 01:05:57,600 --> 01:06:00,720 Speaker 1: politicians to be anything but politicians. You know, Over the 1349 01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 1: last few years, I've really got to know some politicians 1350 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,080 Speaker 1: and some folks. Some folks I dislike his humans, And 1351 01:06:05,200 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 1: this next person I'm about to play is one of them. 1352 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:10,800 Speaker 1: This is just a morally sound human who happens to 1353 01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:13,480 Speaker 1: be white, who just wants to do the right thing. Okay, 1354 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:16,000 Speaker 1: me and this guy have meditated together, we speak. I 1355 01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:18,360 Speaker 1: like this guy and We need folks who speak truth 1356 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:21,840 Speaker 1: to power, especially in politics. Tim Ryan, Ohio, the floor 1357 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:24,360 Speaker 1: is yours. I want to thank the gentlemen from New 1358 01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:26,920 Speaker 1: York and the other Republicans who are supporting this and 1359 01:06:27,040 --> 01:06:29,880 Speaker 1: thank them for their bipartisanship.

If we're gonna take on China, 1369 01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:03,920 Speaker 1: if we're gonna rebuild the country, if we're gonna reverse 1370 01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:07,680 Speaker 1: climate change, we need two political parties in this country 1371 01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 1: that are both living in reality.

Maria, I am 1502 01:14:25,400 --> 01:14:28,600 Speaker 1: so confused. You do not like this man, right you? 1503 01:14:29,439 --> 01:14:32,559 Speaker 1: Just why are you going out the country with him? 1504 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:37,439 Speaker 1: Because it's been planned for a while. Um, I don't 1505 01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:41,160 Speaker 1: want to waste you know, the trip, his money, my time, 1506 01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:44,639 Speaker 1: it's all paider to me and everything. I have a question. 1507 01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:47,720 Speaker 1: Do you care about him as a person? Yes? I do. 1508 01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:50,639 Speaker 1: I think he's a very sweet person and I try 1509 01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:52,559 Speaker 1: to be very honest with him, like I tell him 1510 01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:55,000 Speaker 1: all these things too. I just don't understand why he 1511 01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:59,320 Speaker 1: sees it. He probably thinks that you know, you're doing 1512 01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:02,080 Speaker 1: these things, spending time with him, you're going away with him. 1513 01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:03,920 Speaker 1: Eventually you're going to break down and be in a 1514 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,600 Speaker 1: relationship with him. But if you care about somebody and 1515 01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:09,479 Speaker 1: you know that's not your intention, you can't keep on 1516 01:15:09,640 --> 01:15:13,280 Speaker 1: leading them on like this. Oh everybody told me that, 1517 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:16,840 Speaker 1: so I thought that. I can't accept saying I think 1518 01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 1: if you, I don't think you should. I mean, I 1519 01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:21,560 Speaker 1: feel like that is bad armor. I feel like you 1520 01:15:21,680 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 1: said you've been telling him, but there your actions aren't 1521 01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:26,759 Speaker 1: saying that right. And a lot of times we always 1522 01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:29,280 Speaker 1: tell people not to be delusion and on his behalf, 1523 01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:31,920 Speaker 1: he should know. Okay, she's telling me she doesn't want 1524 01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:33,240 Speaker 1: to be with me, she's not with me, but then 1525 01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:38,560 Speaker 1: you're going away with him. Well I almost believe me. God, 1526 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:42,080 Speaker 1: he had to convince me to go. Yeah, it just 1527 01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:45,639 Speaker 1: feels like it's not It's really not nice, honestly, Maria, 1528 01:15:45,960 --> 01:15:47,880 Speaker 1: if you care about somebody to do things like that, 1529 01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:51,040 Speaker 1: would you want somebody to do that to you, Well 1530 01:15:51,040 --> 01:15:54,560 Speaker 1: I would. I wouldn't put myself in exactly. But he 1531 01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:57,519 Speaker 1: has it and it feels like he's vulnerable. Maybe it's 1532 01:15:57,560 --> 01:16:02,320 Speaker 1: his self esteem, but you are taking advantage. Okay, So 1533 01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:05,320 Speaker 1: I know it's not what you wanted to hear, but 1534 01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 1: it's really not cool. No, I know, because I'm called. 1535 01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:12,479 Speaker 1: I'm called multiple days.

If it's not you, 1540 01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:27,519 Speaker 1: let him at least free up to be able to 1541 01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:30,599 Speaker 1: put that work in with somebody who wants him. Also, 1542 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:33,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I just try to give him a team 1543 01:16:34,160 --> 01:16:38,080 Speaker 1: still hanging around, but hell, I need to do I know, 1544 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:40,519 Speaker 1: I know you're gonna go on this trip anyway, So 1545 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:42,479 Speaker 1: the last piece of advice I'm gonna give you is 1546 01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:46,400 Speaker 1: bring some friends on the trip.

So, according to the Blast, he has filed 1614 01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:16,920 Speaker 1: a lawsuit against Kamara and her husband Tim for allegedly 1615 01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:20,360 Speaker 1: siphoning some of his shares and the Celsius Energy drink 1616 01:20:20,360 --> 01:20:22,960 Speaker 1: company so they could use that those shares is collateral 1617 01:20:23,360 --> 01:20:26,679 Speaker 1: to post bond for her husband, who is currently facing 1618 01:20:26,760 --> 01:20:32,120 Speaker 1: a series of federal charges and calling conspirac that's they're 1619 01:20:32,160 --> 01:20:36,280 Speaker 1: telling me to pay my meeter, all right.

So Russell Simmons 1624 01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:55,920 Speaker 1: is now suing Camara for using that money for his bond. Now, 1625 01:20:55,960 --> 01:20:59,840 Speaker 1: can you sue your ex wife?
