So those 499 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 10: heads of marketing would understand what you have to say 500 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 10: in the way you think, so your management team would 501 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 10: want you there because you're a highly marketable guy. 502 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 6: So okay, So basically I get on the mic and 503 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 6: totally mirrored up like hello, like just say a sentence there, 504 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:35,639 Speaker 6: this is me, How are you exactly?

So there's there's a room for creativity and about 507 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 6: to cry advertising world. And I feel it like me 508 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 6: giving the speech in seventh grade. 509 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, And I feel like Steve also was sort of like. 510 00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 2: Well you know, I uh, we're gonna like and so 511 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: today we're going to do this literally. 512 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 6: So here's the thing. I'd never heard of Stepan you. 513 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 6: But she walked on that stage and like it was instant. 514 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 6: We all came in attention like oooh yeah, cot and 515 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 6: We're like, who is this woman? Like at first I 516 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 6: thought she was a comedian, so I'm like trying to 517 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 6: google her at the same time. Oh wow. 518 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 9: Well, the thing was, she's at the presence of like, yeah, 519 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:23,879 Speaker 9: I was at the mic stand, id and take the 520 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 9: mic off the mine stand. She like took the mic 521 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 9: off the mine stances, okay, show off hands no no, no, no, 522 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 9: Like she totally took over the room, and I was like, 523 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 9: who is this woman? I have to know who this 524 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 9: woman is? 525 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 2: So then why did you go to the business route 526 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 2: first instead of doing the media right, I'm curious if 527 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 2: you had the personality for it in the past. 528 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 5: My point was that you were born star. 529 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's my point. That was my question based on 530 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 2: I knew that's where you were going because I ended up. 531 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 10: In banking right out of undergrad because I went to 532 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 10: college in the US only for two years, and I 533 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 10: studied abroad for two years read right, Kenya, Guatemala in Italy, 534 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 10: and I stayed in Europe because I had no money left. 535 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 10: But I wanted to day in Europe, and in order 536 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 10: to do so, you need to get a job. So 537 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 10: I'm like, I'll get a job with the bank. They 538 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 10: have banks all over the world, and I got a 539 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 10: job with Merrill Lynch. They ended up sending me back 540 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 10: to New York. And a newsroom and a trading floor 541 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 10: are very, very similar. They are high energy, loads of testosterone, passionate. 542 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 10: It's all about teamwork. Everyone kind of leaves it on 543 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 10: the field. And I didn't even know what anybody did there, 544 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 10: but I'm like, whatever they do here for a. 545 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 11: Living, I'm going to do this. And the other thing 546 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 11: is you can make a lot of money. 547 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 10: And no one wants to say that that's an ugly truth, 548 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 10: but especially for women, if you can do something to 549 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 10: make yourself financially independent, it's a game changer. When you 550 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 10: think about all the things that happen to women in 551 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 10: the workplace and put back us into a corner. It's 552 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 10: about not having financial freedom, and when you need a 553 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,719 Speaker 10: job so badly that you don't know if you can 554 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 10: make rent at the end of the month, you'll take shit, 555 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 10: and so to work that you can and I remember 556 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 10: I almost left banking two years in because I really 557 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,880 Speaker 10: wanted to go to journalism school, and somebody who ended 558 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,199 Speaker 10: up being a mentor of mine, said, don't You'll end 559 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 10: up a weather girl in Tuscaloosa. And by the way, 560 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 10: you'll be horrible in local news, which I would be. 561 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 10: I would be terrible at it. But financial freedom does 562 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 10: give you the ability to just make better choice. I mean, 563 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 10: when you have a lot of when you have a 564 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 10: lot of financial freedom, I think people make terrible choices. 565 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 10: That's when they're throwing money out the window. But when 566 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,159 Speaker 10: you know that you've got your situation covered, you can 567 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 10: just take a step back and start to really pursue 568 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 10: things that you want to do. 569 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:37,479 Speaker 2: It's crazy when you think about how many peop I'm 570 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 2: thinking about my me. Of course I'm thinking about myself, 571 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,480 Speaker 2: but then I think about how many people just don't 572 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 2: know what that feels like. Financial freedom like not check 573 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 2: because it's not like chasing like not having to have 574 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 2: a job, like being able to chase your career goals 575 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 2: like that is. 576 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 11: But that's because we don't teach anyone to save money. 577 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 10: When you think about what we go to school for, 578 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 10: and I'm not talking about college, I'm talking about high school. 579 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 10: Are you using algebra? Are you using calculus? 580 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:04,520 Speaker 6: No? 581 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 10: But it really would have been great if they taught 582 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 10: you how to get a mortgage, if they taught you 583 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 10: how a savings account worked, if you didn't have a 584 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 10: parent at home that ever said let me show you. 585 00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 10: And I don't mean how to be an investor, but 586 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 10: how the stock market works. No one teaches you those things. 587 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 2: And especially I mean not for nothing, but yet that's 588 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: black homes. 589 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 10: But but that's if you think about financial mobility. You're 590 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 10: never going to get that if someone doesn't teach it 591 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 10: to you. 592 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 2: That's why they try to not teach it to us, 593 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 2: because they don't want especially for black people, we've been 594 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 2: had hundreds of years when they don't want you to 595 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 2: have that. 596 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 10: So it's not part of the core curriculum in public schools. 597 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 10: I think that's a huge problem. I've been trying very 598 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 10: hard to talk to anyone. 599 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 6: I can just do one class called life. 600 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 10: You forget when you had home economics in school. Home 601 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 10: ac which public schools don't have anymore. 602 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 2: Because budgets are gone, but homeck is not. 603 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 10: Was not just cooking and sewing. It was also personal 604 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 10: budgeting right, And so we live in a world where 605 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 10: people are going, I got to run to a sample 606 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 10: sale because oh my goodness, everything's on sale. It's not 607 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 10: on sale if you're buying it on your credit card 608 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 10: and you can't pay your bill at the end of 609 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 10: the month. And if we don't start helping people learn 610 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 10: the basics of just saving money. And I realize life 611 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 10: is expensive, but if you can save money and you 612 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 10: know you have a little bit of cushion, you just 613 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 10: don't have to take so much shit. 614 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 6: Amen. So okay, So in the banking game, what is 615 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 6: the thin line between like what what should the real 616 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 6: ceialing goal be? Because I know that when I think 617 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 6: of banking, automatically think of Wall Street, Koch Brothers, Uh, 618 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 6: not AIG but us Yeah, yeah, just ron Ponzi scheme 619 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 6: like made off. Yeah, I think of corrupt people. Is 620 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 6: there a good example of lucrative banking done right where 621 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,560 Speaker 6: you can serve a community and be okay? 622 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 10: If you think, I actually think every job on some 623 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 10: level is the same. Every job is about relationship building 624 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 10: and trust. I don't think that my job when I 625 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 10: was in banking, truthfully, is much different than my job now. 626 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 10: If you can sit down and help, whether it's your 627 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 10: client or your viewer, get smarter and better and understand 628 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 10: what they need and what they want to do. 629 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 11: That's your goal. 630 00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 10: When I worked in banking, there was no one there 631 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 10: was There wasn't a hedge fund that said, well, it 632 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 10: is our mission statement to use Stephanie rule to give 633 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 10: us the best investment ideas. But they just had to 634 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 10: figure out Stephanie rules someone I could trust. Are there 635 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 10: examples of good banking? Yes, like when we dump on 636 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 10: Corporate America all the time. Corporate America is what keeps 637 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 10: many cities thriving. Right. Well, when you go you were 638 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 10: just talking about Atlanta, what's in Atlanta? Bank America. That's 639 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 10: the biggest company there, and I'm sure they're the biggest 640 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 10: corporate donor in Atlanta. I'm sure they're one of the 641 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 10: biggest employers. So they're providing healthcare, they're helping schools there. 642 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 10: And yes, there are bad, evil, egregious practices, but in 643 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 10: every business right in in news, in media and entertainment. 644 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 10: Once people reach that star status and rules get bent 645 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 10: for them, then the world starts to go out a whack. 646 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 11: And that's every industry. 647 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,239 Speaker 2: But it seems like in the bank industry, everybody's had 648 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 2: their fair share of controversy, except when I think I'm like, 649 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 2: maybe I feel like TD right now is like the 650 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 2: standalone but Bank of America TD Bank Toronto. 651 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 10: Toronto Dominion because it's a really vanilla bank that doesn't 652 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 10: do too many sort of funky edgy things. 653 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:57,240 Speaker 6: They say, thank you. 654 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 11: But one of the reasons to be so mad. 655 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 10: At the industry, and it's not their fault, there's not 656 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 10: enough rules. Right, So after financial crisis when people didn't 657 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,719 Speaker 10: go to jail, and everyone's like, what the hell, how 658 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 10: come no one went to jail? Well, the problem is 659 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 10: they didn't go to jail because technically they didn't break 660 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 10: the law. Now does that mean we need more regulation? 661 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 10: It does. But you can take that to the pharmaceutical business, 662 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 10: right You could say, like, pharmaceutical is the most hated 663 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 10: industry out there, but those companies are making billions and billions. 664 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 11: Of dollars because what do they do? 665 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 10: They have the big The pharmaceutical industry has the biggest 666 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 10: lobbying effort out there, and so there are very few 667 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 10: politicians on either side of the angle aisle that are 668 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 10: looking to regulate big pharma and so lots of regulation 669 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 10: is bad, but we need some rules to protect people. 670 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 13: The stakes are higher though, in banking than they are 671 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 13: in every in other industries. You know, when somebody's corrupt 672 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 13: and banks, it could cause it ever recession. 673 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,719 Speaker 10: Yes, yes, if somebody steals away, especially I mean in banking. 674 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 10: It was sort of the perfect storm of a lot 675 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 10: of bad things. And listen, the unfortunate thing about the 676 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 10: financial crisis is the people who were hurt the most, 677 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 10: who lost their homes, still haven't recovered, but the industry 678 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 10: has and that sucks. 679 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 6: Where do you think we are now? Do you think 680 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,840 Speaker 6: we're on the verge of a recession? 681 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 9: Like? 682 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:29,359 Speaker 6: What do you think we are fering? 683 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,440 Speaker 10: And like it's got to come again because we've now 684 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 10: had ten good years now. One of the issues though, 685 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 10: and it really led to sort of the birth of 686 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 10: the Trump voter. It was President Obama's last State of 687 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 10: the Union address, and I remember it like it was yesterday, 688 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:46,920 Speaker 10: and he said, anyone who says that the economy has 689 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 10: not recovered is peddling lies. And here's where he was wrong, 690 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 10: because the economy had recovered for people who lived on 691 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,399 Speaker 10: the coasts, for people who worked in technology for people 692 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 10: who worked in an entertainment but for people in Middle 693 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 10: America it didn't. And sort of out of that speech 694 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 10: and that sentiment was quasi the birth of the Trump 695 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 10: voter who said, hold on a second still, I didn't 696 00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 10: get my house back. I haven't paid you know, I 697 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 10: haven't paid gotten any more money at my job. 698 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 11: And just think about this. 699 00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,919 Speaker 10: I could say to you, it's two hundred thousand dollars 700 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:27,400 Speaker 10: a lot of money for a family to make, and 701 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 10: you'd be like, yeah, that's a respectable amount of money. 702 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 10: And that's a family who maybe that could be a 703 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 10: family with two parents where somebody is a teacher or 704 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 10: an accountant or an engineer. But a family who makes 705 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 10: two hundred thousand dollars in the United States cannot afford 706 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 10: to support themselves and send a kid to college, to 707 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 10: a private college, and definitely can't send two kids. But 708 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 10: here's this is the silver lining that I want to 709 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 10: come to. The silver lining is this that family is 710 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 10: angry and they feel left out and they feel forgotten. 711 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 10: It's not that that family is filled with hatred. It's 712 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 10: not that they hate immigrants, it's not that they hate 713 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 10: other cultures. Is that that family is saying the system 714 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 10: doesn't work for me, and so they're frustrated. So what 715 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 10: gives me hope is when we say this country is 716 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 10: so angry and so hatefuled and so divided, they're not. 717 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,239 Speaker 10: There are just people who feel forgotten and angry. And 718 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 10: one of the first things you do when you're angry 719 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 10: and forgotten is you blame someone else and you point 720 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,360 Speaker 10: the finger, and it's a natural emotion. 721 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 2: Call the girls are selling water or you do listen. 722 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 10: Those are very bad examples, and those are real examples 723 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 10: of young kids who are entrepreneurial, who are doing great things. 724 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 10: But that person who did that, that's one bad egg. 725 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 10: And I'm not saying that that bag that egg isn't rotten. 726 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 10: But can I tell you a story about a woman 727 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 10: that I met if I'm. 728 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 12: And she was. 729 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,839 Speaker 10: It was a terrible story, but she actually gives me hope. 730 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:05,239 Speaker 10: So I was an upstate New York at a dude 731 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 10: ranch with my family and a woman comes up and 732 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 10: the owner says, a waitress would like to talk to 733 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,840 Speaker 10: you and tell you why she loves President Trump. So 734 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:16,920 Speaker 10: she knew who she knew who I was, and I 735 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 10: was like, we're going to send my kids off the 736 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 10: table and she can come on over. So she sits down. 737 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 5: You allow it. 738 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 2: I allow it. That was a nice way for them 739 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 2: to do it, though, So let me tell. 740 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 10: You I allowed it because I want to get smarter 741 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 10: and better, and because I do have an open mind 742 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:34,319 Speaker 10: and an open heart. 743 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 6: Okay, No, I just meant, like I figure family time 744 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,240 Speaker 6: is if I'm at the table. 745 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 10: No, I can't take a selfie with you right now, 746 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 10: like when you're at a dude ranch for four days. 747 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 10: You're through three children. You're going to take a break. 748 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 10: So she sits down, and she said to me, I 749 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,239 Speaker 10: want to tell you why I love Donald Trump. And 750 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 10: I said sure, and she said I love him and 751 00:37:59,360 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 10: he loves me. 752 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:05,240 Speaker 11: And she said, and you.

And I said, 755 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 10: why on earth would you think this? And she said, well, 756 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 10: I want to tell you my story. I want to 757 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 10: tell you who I am. 758 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 2: He thinks she's white trash, that's the crazy. 759 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 11: And I said, please tell me. 760 00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 10: And she said, well, Donald Trump came to see me, 761 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 10: meaning he did a rally up there where she lives. 762 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 10: And she said and he cares.

And she said, I don't know, 765 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 10: but I know he came here. And then she said 766 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 10: I'm fifty five years old, and she said I'm a 767 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 10: single mother. And she goes and I have two adult 768 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:48,000 Speaker 10: daughters who are single mothers. And she said, where you live, 769 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 10: do you have charter schools? And I played and she 770 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 10: played me and I said, oh, my goodness, yes, my 771 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 10: husband right here is the board chair of a charter school, 772 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,640 Speaker 10: Arkinson Achievement for School.

And 780 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 10: I bet you raise money? And I said, yes, yes, 781 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 10: you know, we have a big brother, big sister, blah blah, 782 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 10: you know. She goes, yeah, you have charity events for 783 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 10: those things. You don't ever come up here and raise 784 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 10: any money, blah blah blah, so on and so forth, 785 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 10: and she said, we're dependent on social services and they 786 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 10: don't ever answer the phone. And she said, I don't 787 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 10: have grandchildren who are washing up on shore wearing tattered 788 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:52,400 Speaker 10: clothes in an inflatable boat. And she said, my story 789 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 10: isn't ugly enough to be on the cover of your newspaper, 790 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 10: but I am not pretty enough to go to your 791 00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 10: house for dinner. 792 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 2: But him a couple of esquire last months. So with 793 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 2: the whole white problem. 794 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:08,880 Speaker 12: So but to her point, but to her point, it 795 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 12: just makes me sad that she thinks she thinks he cares. 796 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 2: Because he show up. 797 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 6: The thing is, I think he knows. The thing is 798 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 6: is that what makes me more frustrated with him than 799 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 6: anything is because I believe he knows better because he's 800 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 6: a vesting promoter. He knows. 801 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,719 Speaker 10: Yeah, And it's like he played her. 802 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 11: But here's the thing. 803 00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 10: She's not wrong in that Hillary Clinton did spend two 804 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:45,480 Speaker 10: or three work weeks in the August of twenty sixteen 805 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 10: doing the one thing she didn't need to do. She 806 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 10: went to the Hamptons. And oftentimes when people are their 807 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,239 Speaker 10: most desperate, they need someone to just look at them 808 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 10: and just hold their hand. And this goes to the 809 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 10: feeling of isolation people have with the birth of social media. 810 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 10: People aren't talking to their neighbors or their friends. 811 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 6: Right. 812 00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 10: I've lived in New York City for twenty two years. 813 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 10: I never know the names of all my neighbors and 814 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 10: the doorman and the building next to me. And you 815 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 10: know who does my mother Because my mother is not 816 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 10: of a social media generation. She doesn't use the cell phone, 817 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 10: she doesn't use so she doesn't use a computer, but 818 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 10: she knows my community. And so whether Donald Trump is 819 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 10: sincere or not, and you're one hundred percent right, he's not. 820 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,359 Speaker 10: In fact, when he goes and does those rallies, they 821 00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 10: often say that once people become the president and they 822 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 10: see the country, they become empathetic because they travel. 823 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 11: When President Trump does. 824 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 10: A rally, he literally lands, unrolls the carpet, pitches the tent, 825 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,320 Speaker 10: does the show, throws the hats and gets back on 826 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 10: and leaves. So what you're saying is completely true. It's 827 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 10: sad because he doesn't care. But even if it's about 828 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 10: giving people short. 829 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 5: Term hope, the idea of Kirie her. 830 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 10: But I also think about when people grew to know 831 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 10: him and believe his story. They were watching The Apprentice. 832 00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 10: And here's the thing. In the nineteen eighties, Johnny Carson 833 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 10: was considered the most trusted man in America. And it's 834 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 10: because when people were watching him, they're watching him the 835 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:23,359 Speaker 10: same time they're watching Questlove at eleven thirty at night 836 00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 10: in their beds, in their underwear, in their pajamas, and 837 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 10: they feel like they have a relationship with you. Right. 838 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 10: Think about a beloved person in America, it's Al Roker. 839 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 10: Al Roker doesn't just do the weather. He goes out 840 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,759 Speaker 10: into Rockefeller Plaza and he physically touches people who are 841 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 10: out there in the cold, and he's talking to them 842 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:48,439 Speaker 10: about their weather. On the first morning, and saw people 843 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:52,439 Speaker 10: saw Donald Trump at ten o'clock at night on NBC News, 844 00:42:52,760 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 10: eating their ice creams, sitting on their couch, and they're 845 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 10: watching him play a role that wasn't true. But this 846 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 10: you're fired, straight talking. I'm the richest guy in New York. 847 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 10: So if you watched Mike Bloomberg when he spoke at 848 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 10: the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, I remember it because 849 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 10: I worked at Bloomberger I said for five years. If 850 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 10: you actually watched his speech, it was it wasn't bitter, 851 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 10: but there was this twinge in it because you could 852 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 10: actually hear that Mike Bloomberg is going, this guy's a fraud. 853 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 10: And he wasn't saying I'm the richest guy in New 854 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 10: York or I'm the most philanthropic, but as the guy 855 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 10: who is one of the greatest philanthropists in the country, 856 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 10: who is a great businessman, who is extraordinary here. You 857 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:43,800 Speaker 10: actually watched him at that podium kind of shaking his head, going, 858 00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 10: this is a con man America. And whether he's whether 859 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 10: President Trump is a con man or not, his salesmanship worked. 860 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,360 Speaker 2: And he didn't. It's funny. I feel like he almost 861 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 2: he cheated and used it. It's privilege in a way 862 00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 2: for him to be able to just go touch them 863 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 2: by then feel affected and not have to tell them 864 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,360 Speaker 2: what he's going to do for them or anything. Meanwhile, 865 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 2: I'm like Obama had to go touch people, lay down 866 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,960 Speaker 2: a plan, convince you, put a pen, you know what 867 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 2: I'm saying, And all he had to do was come 868 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 2: to your neighborhood and say how you doing, I'm out 869 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 2: go And that's just an interesting breakdown in that way. 870 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,399 Speaker 10: But it's great to think about Obama now. The one 871 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 10: thing that Obama gave people, because remember Obama was elected 872 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 10: as the financial crisis was crumbling. Obama was a message 873 00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:37,319 Speaker 10: of hope, and President Trump had a different message of hope. Right, 874 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 10: Obama had a universal message of inclusion and hope. And 875 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,799 Speaker 10: then eight years went by and a lot of people said, 876 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:49,560 Speaker 10: well I didn't get included, and President Trump, whether he's 877 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 10: whether it's true or not, said but I love you 878 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 10: and I see you. Let's do this. 879 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 2: Why didn't he They make them prove it though, if 880 00:44:58,520 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 2: you let me show me. 881 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 10: Because the benefit that he had is he wasn't a politician, 882 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 10: so there was no track record to point to. He 883 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,799 Speaker 10: was going up against somebody who had a lifetime track 884 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 10: record in the public eye, who people had been critiquing 885 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 10: for thirty years, and she had been critiqued so much 886 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 10: that she lost a sense of her real self and 887 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 10: humanity because she had been politicized for all those years. 888 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:31,319 Speaker 5: Okay, I was. 889 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:35,280 Speaker 6: Also going to add in that, I mean, I personally 890 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 6: believe that with Russia interfering with and I do I 891 00:45:41,080 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 6: have to say allegedly interfering oh no more think yeah, 892 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 6: but I still don't believe that he would have won 893 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 6: had had the election been unscathed. I truly don't think that. 894 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,879 Speaker 10: I don't necessarily disagree with you, but I don't give 895 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 10: any I don't give any time or heart to that 896 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 10: because the toothpaste ain't going back in the tube, right, 897 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 10: and so like even for me, Robert Muller is going 898 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 10: to figure out what Robert Muller does, and in my opinion. 899 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 6: That you're going to be a result, Like what do 900 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 6: you think the end game is going to be? He's 901 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:18,839 Speaker 6: still going to do his four years. 902 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,879 Speaker 10: Honestly, I don't don't say eight years. Listen, I think 903 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 10: there's a very good chance he gets reelected. 904 00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:26,880 Speaker 5: Serious, I do do. 905 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:30,879 Speaker 2: I want to hear why? So what do you think? 906 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 2: Why is it based on what you were just saying 907 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 2: kind of about the interaction. 908 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:37,400 Speaker 10: No, I think that the president has uh And again 909 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 10: I'm not saying it's good, but I think he has 910 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 10: a two pronged plan that works. So if you actually 911 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 10: look at his policies, he is hooking up the rich, 912 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,399 Speaker 10: and the rich didn't actually vote for him the first 913 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,279 Speaker 10: time around, and he is helping them out all over 914 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,160 Speaker 10: the place. Corporate America and the super wealthy who do 915 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 10: not have Trump signs in their front yard. They're not 916 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 10: wearing Make America Great Again hats that they want to 917 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:05,560 Speaker 10: protect the status quo. They'll get quietly voting for him. 918 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 10: So he hooks them up on policies over here, and 919 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 10: at the same time that he's doing that quietly while 920 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:16,440 Speaker 10: you're sleeping, he's doing a Trump rally. And at that 921 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 10: Trump rally he gins up. He stirs up all of 922 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,439 Speaker 10: those culture wars. So he's going, I know, I haven't 923 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 10: helped you in business yet, and you're not making any 924 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 10: more money. Give me time. Give me time, because when 925 00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,280 Speaker 10: we go, oh my god, these tariffs, like he's killing 926 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 10: the farmers, and I'm saying he's killing the farmers, and 927 00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,640 Speaker 10: I'm saying it from a newsroom in New York. And 928 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 10: then when you actually send a reporter to Kansas or 929 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 10: Nebraska and you interview those farmers, those farmers say, you 930 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:42,359 Speaker 10: know what, I'm going to give him more time. 931 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:46,879 Speaker 11: At least he's taking this on because he talks the talk. 932 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 10: But then he stirs up these race baiting culture arguments 933 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 10: that take in the build the wall. You know, these 934 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 10: three word slogans, and he goes to those rallies and 935 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,839 Speaker 10: those people are going yes. So his base stands with him. 936 00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 10: Rich people stand with him. And then the third lane, 937 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 10: which is his truly winning lane. What wait, nope, it's 938 00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 10: judges the president. It's judges. 939 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, he's he's he's president. 940 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 2: Judges. 941 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 10: You've got two Supreme Court justices he's ready to gout 942 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 10: on the bench. And even more than that is federal judges. Yes, okay, 943 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 10: federal judges. He has got a record number of federal 944 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:33,759 Speaker 10: judges on the bench, and those are jobs for a lifetime, 945 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 10: and the majority of them are white men under the 946 00:48:37,719 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 10: age of forty. So if you are a Christian conservative 947 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 10: and you say, and I'm going to you, I don't 948 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 10: understand how the evangelical community could be standing by the president. 949 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 10: I mean, what do you think about the things that 950 00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 10: he says and does? Well, guess what if you're somebody 951 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 10: in that community, you're saying, I'm not even going to 952 00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 10: know what Trump's name is in four years, But he 953 00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 10: is putting judges on the bench who support my beliefs 954 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:04,360 Speaker 10: and they're going to be there forever. And the justice 955 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:09,520 Speaker 10: system impacts every aspect of our lives you telling. 956 00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:14,280 Speaker 11: Right, I mean yesterday are today? 957 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:17,799 Speaker 10: Excuse me, Paul Manniford's lawyers are arguing for a more 958 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:21,279 Speaker 10: lenient sentence, saying, well, he didn't kill anyone, he didn't 959 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 10: run a drug cartel. He's not Bernie made Off. And 960 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:28,319 Speaker 10: I'm laughing to myself saying, well, really you're after you're 961 00:49:28,320 --> 00:49:31,440 Speaker 10: representing Paul Manafort. Are you then going to be representing 962 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:35,480 Speaker 10: young African American males who get put in prison for 963 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 10: small drug infractions and work on lesser sentences for them. 964 00:49:39,680 --> 00:49:40,320 Speaker 10: The answer is no. 965 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:46,200 Speaker 6: Well, okay, you mentioned about the beliefs in the lifestyles 966 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 6: of the coasts versus that of Middle America. 967 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 10: But remember Middle America is also right here. We keep 968 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 10: thinking that like that Trump voter is like way out 969 00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 10: there in the hinterland, and not. 970 00:49:58,840 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 5: Is Middle America. 971 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 6: So with what Alexandria Alexandria Cortes says about this new 972 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 6: Green Deal, all right, I know she's wet behind the ears, 973 00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:18,920 Speaker 6: I know she's a newbie, But does she have a 974 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,040 Speaker 6: point or Because the thing is is that you can 975 00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:26,840 Speaker 6: look at it both ways. Because the thing is that, okay, 976 00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 6: I respect the ideal of the Middle America worker or whatever, 977 00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 6: you know, the coal miner. I understand people have to 978 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,720 Speaker 6: feed their kids, but at what point do we realize 979 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:44,200 Speaker 6: that it's twenty twenty and technology and your day is 980 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:45,319 Speaker 6: just over a new well. 981 00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:46,960 Speaker 2: A lot of them aren't working. So aren't they kind 982 00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,799 Speaker 2: of understanding that because having things shrunk in the middle. 983 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:51,840 Speaker 11: But it's also not you keep. 984 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 10: Thinking it's the coal worker out there because people right here. 985 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:59,120 Speaker 13: Why didn't the lady from upstate that you were talking 986 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,319 Speaker 13: about earlier, why and she just moved down to New 987 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 13: York City? 988 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:07,279 Speaker 6: No no, no, no, list stop stop listen, no no, no, 989 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,839 Speaker 6: but time out, time out. He's joking, But I'm kind 990 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 6: of thinking of that. And but the thing is that 991 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 6: people know you know what I'm saying. 992 00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 10: I can barely, but that's real. That's real, like like 993 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:29,480 Speaker 10: the struggle is real for everyone, right, and the rich 994 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 10: have gotten people who are like I'm talking rich, rich 995 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,120 Speaker 10: have gotten so rich that things don't even cut like 996 00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 10: there is no price on anything. 997 00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:41,759 Speaker 13: How do you redistribute Sorry to interrupt your thought, how 998 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 13: I'm trying to just get to the some of some 999 00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:48,280 Speaker 13: of the end endgame. How do you redistribute wealth without 1000 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,800 Speaker 13: redistributing wealth listen. 1001 00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 10: It's really tricky. 1002 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 9: You know. 1003 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 10: It's somebody who you should actually meet if you haven't 1004 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 10: met him yet. Is a guy named Michael Tubbs. He's 1005 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 10: the current mayor of Stockton, California. 1006 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:01,640 Speaker 11: I love this boy. 1007 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 10: He's twenty eight years old, grew up a single mom. 1008 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:07,800 Speaker 10: I'm pretty sure his father was incarcerated for most of 1009 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,640 Speaker 10: his life. He interned at Google I want to say 1010 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:13,080 Speaker 10: he entered at Facebook, and then the last year before 1011 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,239 Speaker 10: he graduated from college, he interned at the White House. 1012 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:17,600 Speaker 10: And it comes home and he says to his mother, 1013 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,440 Speaker 10: I want to go into politics. And she's like, uh uh. 1014 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:21,840 Speaker 10: She's like, you're the one who's going to get us 1015 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 10: out of here, and he said, no, I think this 1016 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:27,240 Speaker 10: is my calling. He joined the city council in Stockton 1017 00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:29,279 Speaker 10: I want to say twenty two. He became mayor when 1018 00:52:29,320 --> 00:52:33,880 Speaker 10: he was twenty six. And he's this unbelievable force, and 1019 00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 10: through philanthropy, he just in the last month has implemented 1020 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 10: universal basic income. 1021 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:39,879 Speaker 6: There. 1022 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 11: So there's not a clear answer yet. 1023 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 6: Philanthropy maybe is, but the. 1024 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 10: Problem is it can't just be philanthropy because that's like 1025 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:55,280 Speaker 10: this system has been so gamed that we're then supposed 1026 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,879 Speaker 10: to say, oh, thank you so much, Microsoft for giving 1027 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,880 Speaker 10: us these crumbs and these pennies on the side. The 1028 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 10: answer isn't corporate America bad. Individuals are good. Government and 1029 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:09,960 Speaker 10: corporate America have to find a way to work together 1030 00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 10: or we are going to turn into the Third World. 1031 00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,520 Speaker 6: Do you think that corporate America should pay their taxes? 1032 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:19,160 Speaker 10: That mean corporate America should pay their taxes, But that's 1033 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 10: not the issue. Corporate America isn't evil for paying zero taxes. 1034 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 10: They're legally gaming. 1035 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 11: The system, right, So it's a a system changed. 1036 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 10: So change the system, okay, as long as every company 1037 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,600 Speaker 10: has a need for a tax department, as long as 1038 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:41,000 Speaker 10: someone is a tax lawyer. As long as the tax 1039 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:47,120 Speaker 10: system is so complicated that sophisticated, wealthy people can use 1040 00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 10: loophole after loophole to pay nothing and regular people can't, 1041 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 10: then the system doesn't work. So when they cut the 1042 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 10: corporate tax rate from thirty nine percent to twenty one percent, 1043 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 10: do you know what, really rich people did turn themselves 1044 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 10: into corporations, So now they pay twenty one percent corporations 1045 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,000 Speaker 10: before the tax cut, we're paying too much, So it 1046 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:09,400 Speaker 10: should be. 1047 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 5: Exactly shut up whatever, no good. 1048 00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:19,719 Speaker 10: The answer is we've got to find a way. When 1049 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,520 Speaker 10: President Trump said make America great again for everyone at 1050 00:54:23,560 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 10: this table or for a women, you could say like 1051 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:30,480 Speaker 10: that phrase is rooted in racism because for women and minorities. 1052 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 9: No, that was it wasn't great for us. We don't 1053 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 9: want to go back in town like black people don't 1054 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 9: own a time trap. 1055 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 10: But I'll tell you what things used to be for 1056 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 10: many people. The disparity between the boss and the worker 1057 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 10: pay has never been great as great as it was now. 1058 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 10: It used to be like this and we're on the radio, 1059 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,240 Speaker 10: so I shouldn't just use my hands or only speaking 1060 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:53,759 Speaker 10: of no visual It has grown massively. We have to 1061 00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 10: figure out a way to shrink that. So when they 1062 00:54:56,600 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 10: gave that big tax cut, instead of just giving it 1063 00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 10: and hoping, hey, you're going to give people a raise. 1064 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 10: If you gave that tax cut, there should have been 1065 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 10: stipulations around worker pay. But I'll tell you one more 1066 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 10: thing and then I promise we could change the subject. 1067 00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 10: Here's the issue. It is not a CEO's job. It's 1068 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:20,200 Speaker 10: not his job to do right by the community and 1069 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:23,640 Speaker 10: to do right by his employees. He should or she should, 1070 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:28,840 Speaker 10: but as his fiducia. As a fiduciary, his job is 1071 00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,799 Speaker 10: to make money. It is to make money for his shareholder. 1072 00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 10: It's to sell products. If you want to change the 1073 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:38,960 Speaker 10: rules of the game, giddy up, let's change them. 1074 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:42,400 Speaker 11: But given what the rules are, you can't. 1075 00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 10: Let's say we were all shareholders in Questlove LLC, and 1076 00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,800 Speaker 10: Questlove decided tomorrow, Hey, guys. 1077 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:51,239 Speaker 6: Do a mirror. 1078 00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 10: Let's say we're all investors in a mere LLC and 1079 00:55:57,160 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 10: tomorrow Amir says, guess what I've decided. I'm going to 1080 00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:06,799 Speaker 10: take thirty percent of our profits and before I pay 1081 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:08,880 Speaker 10: it back to you, I'm going to start a foundation 1082 00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 10: and I'm going to give it to kids that I 1083 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,319 Speaker 10: want to in Philadelphia. And then I'm going to turn 1084 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:16,480 Speaker 10: this studio into I'm going to only use green energy. 1085 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 10: And the six of us sitting here could say, damn right, 1086 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:24,239 Speaker 10: you won't. That's my money. I'm your investor. You don't 1087 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:26,520 Speaker 10: get to pick to do the right thing. You don't 1088 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,799 Speaker 10: get to pick to go green. That's my money. You're 1089 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 10: going to give it back to me, and then I'm 1090 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,279 Speaker 10: going to decide what I do with it. So we're 1091 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 10: sitting here with our arms folded demanding that corporate America 1092 00:56:38,160 --> 00:56:41,320 Speaker 10: quote unquote do the right thing. Then the answer is 1093 00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 10: change the rules of the game of what the right 1094 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 10: thing is. Now, with people like Alexandra Ocasio Cortes getting elected, 1095 00:56:49,560 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 10: that shows that there are more voters saying maybe I 1096 00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 10: want something different, With millennials saying I only want to 1097 00:56:56,040 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 10: do business or buy products from companies whose values I support, 1098 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 10: maybe you're gonna start to see difference. 1099 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 11: My concern is those things are only happening at the margin. 1100 00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:14,480 Speaker 2: Yes, once you start really auditing, you know, it's funny. 1101 00:57:14,200 --> 00:57:18,880 Speaker 9: Because it's president it is because people only do the 1102 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 9: right thing after they try everything else. 1103 00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 2: Because once you really start auditing the companies that you 1104 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 2: support in the smallest ways, whether it's the cereal that 1105 00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 2: you eat or the stocks that you yeah, because you'll 1106 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 2: start seeing it's funny because they are starting to learn 1107 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 2: the politics of these corporations or presidents and things of 1108 00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:35,600 Speaker 2: that nature. And it's kind of ill because you have 1109 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 2: to make these decisions like do I stop doing what 1110 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:40,800 Speaker 2: I've been doing for ten years because now I know 1111 00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:43,400 Speaker 2: something that I people didn't used to know ten years ago. 1112 00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:45,960 Speaker 10: But do you reward the companies that do the right thing. 1113 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 10: And here's why I ask. 1114 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 6: So. 1115 00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:50,840 Speaker 10: Just today I sat down with Ed Stack.

If you remember, it'll be a 1118 00:57:57,480 --> 00:58:01,680 Speaker 10: year ago Thursday, after the Parkland shooting, they said we're 1119 00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 10: not going to sell assault rifles anymore. Okay, that's a 1120 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,560 Speaker 10: big deal. That's a company based in Pittsburgh with huge 1121 00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 10: hunting business. They went to their sales dropped, I want 1122 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 10: to say, just under, just like four percent. And here's 1123 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 10: what I want to know.

Right, they did all this stuff, 1139 00:58:57,480 --> 00:58:59,880 Speaker 2: they gave whatever that I remember that and that state 1140 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:02,160 Speaker 2: my mind until you know, they fucked up everybody's debit 1141 00:59:02,200 --> 00:59:03,960 Speaker 2: card situation. But still. 1142 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:12,000 Speaker 10: We need to remember gratitude and forgiveness because this is 1143 00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 10: an angry, divided time and we're quick to get mad 1144 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,440 Speaker 10: and quick to say I'm done with you, I'm finished 1145 00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:19,560 Speaker 10: with you when someone does something we support. 1146 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 6: You're also one of the few journalists that I know 1147 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:31,800 Speaker 6: that actually takes a portion of your show to say, 1148 00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 6: here's some good things. 1149 00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:34,560 Speaker 2: Power respect. 1150 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 5: That's the thing. 1151 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 6: And the thing is is that no one's ever going 1152 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 6: to report the good news like I didn't know about. 1153 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,400 Speaker 6: I think that's admirable that Dick Sporting Goods did that, 1154 00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 6: But I don't think we're in society that necessarily will 1155 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 6: throw a ticket tape parade because someone helped my grandmother 1156 00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:56,000 Speaker 6: across the street today. 1157 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 10: Let's find a way to do that. And the truth 1158 00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:01,439 Speaker 10: is right, so people always I'm going to get it wrong. 1159 01:00:01,520 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 10: A newspaper is something like right. And we do love 1160 01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,360 Speaker 10: train wrecks, we do love reality shows, we love the 1161 01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 10: world Wrestling Federation. But we have to find a way, 1162 01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 10: not in some Pollyanna way, but at the margins to 1163 01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:21,520 Speaker 10: celebrate good things. 1164 01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:23,760 Speaker 5: But is it also okay? 1165 01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:27,240 Speaker 6: You remember the Chris Rock joke where he's like, uh, 1166 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 6: Fithers always want credit for something this. Yeah, I was 1167 01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 6: actually gonna bring that up. 1168 01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:34,520 Speaker 11: Tell me, tell me no. 1169 01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 10: No, I mean like when dad say I'm babysitting my kids. Exactly, 1170 01:00:39,920 --> 01:00:41,240 Speaker 10: You're watching your offspring. 1171 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:43,880 Speaker 6: Your jobs, supposed to my keys, you supposed to take 1172 01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:47,680 Speaker 6: care of your key. So it's it's but could that 1173 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:49,040 Speaker 6: also be the case, like. 1174 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:52,440 Speaker 2: You should give bad company. Yeah, you know, it's not 1175 01:00:52,480 --> 01:00:53,560 Speaker 2: a big deal, you should. 1176 01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:56,680 Speaker 6: I mean, but in what ways would you feel that 1177 01:00:56,760 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 6: it's more prudent or beneficial for said protesters to let 1178 01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 6: us know that it's great to shop at Dix again? 1179 01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 11: Listen, you you watch those protests. 1180 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:17,000 Speaker 10: You watch those protest groups go off on social media 1181 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,240 Speaker 10: and say I'm done with this company instead. 1182 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 11: Great. 1183 01:01:20,840 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 10: Fine, Then when I don't know, Father's Day comes around, 1184 01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 10: I want to see that same handle, say great, Dick's 1185 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:29,920 Speaker 10: dorky golf shoes. 1186 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna see. But Sey, I think what you're saying, 1187 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 2: that's a whole nother round because we all know, and 1188 01:01:34,360 --> 01:01:36,000 Speaker 2: you know this even better than we do. There are 1189 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:39,640 Speaker 2: organizations that are just for protesting, like, uh, even with 1190 01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:45,080 Speaker 2: black people black Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter is particularly 1191 01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:47,880 Speaker 2: a protest organization, right, so they might not be the 1192 01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:49,920 Speaker 2: ones that are gonna come back afterwards and be like, so, 1193 01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 2: you know, now we can support da DA It seems 1194 01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:54,600 Speaker 2: like it needs to be in some ore entities that 1195 01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:56,320 Speaker 2: do that clean up on the back end. 1196 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:58,919 Speaker 10: Yes, I'm just saying there has to be a way 1197 01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 10: to find goodness and push the goodness forward because otherwise 1198 01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,720 Speaker 10: we're just anger on top of anger, and I know 1199 01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:09,280 Speaker 10: that every day. 1200 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:13,480 Speaker 6: But there's a lot of unresolved issues, a lot I 1201 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 6: feel like. I think in the case of the Parkland 1202 01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:24,480 Speaker 6: shooting time, Yes, whenever there is a shooting and an occurrence, 1203 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,840 Speaker 6: the one question that no one ever seems to bring 1204 01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:36,320 Speaker 6: up in you know, whenever these problems arise, that I 1205 01:02:36,480 --> 01:02:47,480 Speaker 6: never seemed to hear is the reasoning behind wanting arm 1206 01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 6: to be armed, of which no one is really going 1207 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:52,640 Speaker 6: to talk about. You know, the reason why arms are 1208 01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 6: used in the first place was for slaves to keep 1209 01:02:56,520 --> 01:02:58,520 Speaker 6: slaves in the line, to keep them from running away. 1210 01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:02,040 Speaker 5: Like we know, get to that part of the conversation. 1211 01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:03,840 Speaker 2: That's like our part. They don't get to our parts 1212 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:05,760 Speaker 2: of the conversation, which is kind of like the best 1213 01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:06,720 Speaker 2: thing that I feel like. 1214 01:03:06,720 --> 01:03:12,360 Speaker 6: The history of the gun in America starts with what 1215 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 6: were they used for? And it's almost like the white elephant, that. 1216 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 2: Do we talk about. 1217 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 6: What dogs was used for? I mean, shit, I mean. 1218 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 2: They used to chase black people, and you know, that's 1219 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 2: what it was all about. But that's fine, you know, 1220 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 2: I get that. 1221 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I know they did. I don't I don't 1222 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,600 Speaker 6: fuck with dollars though Zara's not still happy with these answers. 1223 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:40,440 Speaker 6: But my point is that my point is that I 1224 01:03:40,560 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 6: don't know if I would say, hey, okay, well dick'porting 1225 01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:47,880 Speaker 6: Goods did right by us, so go buy rifle. Like 1226 01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,200 Speaker 6: I personally, I mean, I don't want to put my 1227 01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:58,360 Speaker 6: personal beliefs on people. But you know, wait, wait, let 1228 01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:01,160 Speaker 6: me let me, let me backtrack. You're from the down South, 1229 01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 6: uh fante. Now, I was very shocked at Big Mike's 1230 01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:14,320 Speaker 6: the killer the warning thing, yeah, killer killer Mike's position 1231 01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 6: about wanting to be armed, and he felt he you know, 1232 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,800 Speaker 6: he's a doctor. Second second memorized teaches his daughter how 1233 01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 6: to do it.

Off the top of 1788 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 10: my had Dave Chappelle quote that he gave a couple 1789 01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:32,439 Speaker 10: months ago where he said, when did the world get 1790 01:29:32,479 --> 01:29:35,840 Speaker 10: this messed up? Where everyone in your house you had 1791 01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:40,160 Speaker 10: to agree with? You only talk to people who were 1792 01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:43,960 Speaker 10: on the same side of everything, And he said, disagreement, 1793 01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:46,360 Speaker 10: even with the people closest to you, is what makes 1794 01:29:46,439 --> 01:29:49,479 Speaker 10: us great. This is when we lose heart and humor 1795 01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:53,880 Speaker 10: and we stop getting smarter and so there are people 1796 01:29:53,920 --> 01:29:56,600 Speaker 10: who are super liberal who don't like what I have 1797 01:29:56,720 --> 01:29:59,120 Speaker 10: to say. Unfortunately for them, they got no other network 1798 01:29:59,160 --> 01:29:59,519 Speaker 10: to go to. 1799 01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:02,439 Speaker 2: You say that they don't have more. Nicole Wallace's on 1800 01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:04,479 Speaker 2: Fox because I just gotta say, I love the way 1801 01:30:04,560 --> 01:30:07,160 Speaker 2: she has evolved as a Republican in her way of 1802 01:30:07,240 --> 01:30:09,080 Speaker 2: thought now that she's a Democrat. Now I don't think so, 1803 01:30:09,200 --> 01:30:11,760 Speaker 2: but just in her sense, and I feel like that 1804 01:30:11,960 --> 01:30:14,040 Speaker 2: kind of voice needs to be more president. 1805 01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:18,040 Speaker 10: Most people don't label themselves I'm a Republican, I'm a Democrat. 1806 01:30:18,240 --> 01:30:20,200 Speaker 10: We're all the same. We're all just trying to get 1807 01:30:20,320 --> 01:30:20,639 Speaker 10: She did. 1808 01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:22,479 Speaker 2: Because she was a ripe. I mean that was her 1809 01:30:22,520 --> 01:30:23,120 Speaker 2: correct job. 1810 01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:25,439 Speaker 10: But for most people out there, we're all just trying 1811 01:30:25,439 --> 01:30:27,840 Speaker 10: to live our best lives, get to our highest self, 1812 01:30:28,200 --> 01:30:31,040 Speaker 10: and the more we can focus on that and less 1813 01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:33,680 Speaker 10: on politics. Listen, if you were a single mother in 1814 01:30:33,760 --> 01:30:36,680 Speaker 10: the South Side of Chicago, would you say I identify 1815 01:30:36,800 --> 01:30:37,679 Speaker 10: myself as actual? 1816 01:30:37,760 --> 01:30:40,320 Speaker 6: Why? No, I didn't know. I side myself is trying 1817 01:30:40,320 --> 01:30:41,240 Speaker 6: to make my God damn. 1818 01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:43,680 Speaker 11: Rent, but that's exactly it. 1819 01:30:44,120 --> 01:30:49,120 Speaker 6: The thing is, though, is that I'm fine with disagreements. 1820 01:30:50,120 --> 01:30:54,439 Speaker 6: If the person disagreeing with me, I respect them, not 1821 01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:56,920 Speaker 6: even I respect them if they come with actual. 1822 01:30:56,720 --> 01:30:58,960 Speaker 10: Fact, right Boom, you nailed it now. 1823 01:30:59,120 --> 01:31:04,920 Speaker 6: Okay from a musical standpoint, okay, a music fan could 1824 01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:07,759 Speaker 6: give me the prose of why slide in the Family Stones, 1825 01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:12,000 Speaker 6: there's a Ryte Coin on. It's such a monumentous, important 1826 01:31:12,040 --> 01:31:16,479 Speaker 6: moment and funk. But a person like me is kind 1827 01:31:16,520 --> 01:31:19,640 Speaker 6: of sad at that record because I feel guilty is 1828 01:31:19,760 --> 01:31:22,400 Speaker 6: celebrating the joy of someone who's. 1829 01:31:23,720 --> 01:31:24,519 Speaker 5: On heroin. 1830 01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:30,519 Speaker 6: I feel like it's watching a car accident. And I 1831 01:31:30,640 --> 01:31:33,040 Speaker 6: acknowledge it, you know, But I'm just saying that. I 1832 01:31:33,120 --> 01:31:38,519 Speaker 6: feel that both arguments are based in fact. However, a 1833 01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:42,640 Speaker 6: lot of the political arguments are just more about my 1834 01:31:42,840 --> 01:31:46,560 Speaker 6: side's winning. My side's winning, and I don't know, I 1835 01:31:46,720 --> 01:31:51,599 Speaker 6: just feel as though I believe I'm on the side 1836 01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:53,680 Speaker 6: of the truth. Like when I watch Rachel Maddow, I 1837 01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:58,639 Speaker 6: don't feel as though she's trying to, you know, put 1838 01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:00,360 Speaker 6: me on her gin. I don't believe he hasn't a 1839 01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:02,240 Speaker 6: actually that she's revealing. 1840 01:32:02,600 --> 01:32:05,160 Speaker 10: Show you feel like you're at a college court. And 1841 01:32:05,360 --> 01:32:08,760 Speaker 10: I didn't watch Rachel before I got into political news. 1842 01:32:09,479 --> 01:32:11,560 Speaker 10: I have to be perfectly honest. I don't have a 1843 01:32:11,640 --> 01:32:14,920 Speaker 10: great voting record in that it wasn't a priority in 1844 01:32:15,040 --> 01:32:17,920 Speaker 10: my life, and now that I see so many of 1845 01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:21,080 Speaker 10: our basic rights in question, I'm filled with guilt over 1846 01:32:21,160 --> 01:32:24,599 Speaker 10: that and even what I thought Rachel was. And then 1847 01:32:24,640 --> 01:32:28,360 Speaker 10: I started watching It's like watching a masterclass. I don't 1848 01:32:28,400 --> 01:32:31,760 Speaker 10: feel like there's a political agenda and where you're exactly right. 1849 01:32:31,880 --> 01:32:36,320 Speaker 6: Fox News will look at her and say elitist, homosexual, 1850 01:32:36,720 --> 01:32:41,040 Speaker 6: she's trying to social rights. But I feel that the basic, 1851 01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:49,559 Speaker 6: the basic gripe in not listening or even taking her 1852 01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:52,360 Speaker 6: words and filtering it because she's not this or she's 1853 01:32:52,439 --> 01:32:55,560 Speaker 6: not that. Well yeah, but you know, because then I 1854 01:32:55,720 --> 01:33:00,600 Speaker 6: just feel that most conservatives might feel that, well, you know, 1855 01:33:00,760 --> 01:33:03,439 Speaker 6: she can't be telling the truth because she's she's a gay. 1856 01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:07,799 Speaker 6: Then find and then that, and then then that goes into. 1857 01:33:07,560 --> 01:33:11,880 Speaker 10: A find a way to see those people and hear 1858 01:33:11,960 --> 01:33:19,479 Speaker 10: those people because people gay. Cable news ratings are up, 1859 01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:23,000 Speaker 10: But we have to break through the stereotype so people 1860 01:33:23,080 --> 01:33:27,640 Speaker 10: can actually hear you. And we have to stop attacking 1861 01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:30,280 Speaker 10: the president about his weight or his hair or is 1862 01:33:30,320 --> 01:33:31,960 Speaker 10: it like we don't have to go with all that 1863 01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:37,599 Speaker 10: he gives us. Correct, but I'm sing, we don't need 1864 01:33:38,439 --> 01:33:42,040 Speaker 10: to jump to conclusions about what we believe he's guilty 1865 01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:44,360 Speaker 10: of before we know it, because guess what, right now, 1866 01:33:44,479 --> 01:33:47,240 Speaker 10: at this moment, I'm sure he's given us something. Right, 1867 01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:50,760 Speaker 10: he's going to be somebody who's told I want to 1868 01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:53,040 Speaker 10: say the Washington Post has now added it to eight 1869 01:33:53,160 --> 01:33:57,360 Speaker 10: thousand lies. We can stick to covering those eight thousand lies. 1870 01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:01,479 Speaker 10: And we have to resist the temptation and of overkilled 1871 01:34:01,960 --> 01:34:03,960 Speaker 10: because guess what, we're all guilty of it. Whenever I 1872 01:34:04,040 --> 01:34:08,280 Speaker 10: get whenever Fox News, you know, at primetime, will do 1873 01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:09,760 Speaker 10: a segment at night mocking me. 1874 01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 6: They do that. 1875 01:34:12,320 --> 01:34:13,320 Speaker 5: I don't watch Fox News. 1876 01:34:13,800 --> 01:34:17,560 Speaker 10: Here's the thing, when they do it, there's usually a 1877 01:34:17,760 --> 01:34:20,200 Speaker 10: little bit of fact in there. I got a little 1878 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:21,960 Speaker 10: lazy that day I got over my skis. It was 1879 01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:23,760 Speaker 10: usually on a Thursday or a Friday because I didn't 1880 01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:26,680 Speaker 10: do my homework and I'm tired. So we are challenged 1881 01:34:26,800 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 10: right now. We must stick stick to the facts because 1882 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:33,120 Speaker 10: the facts are on our side. But you make an 1883 01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:37,799 Speaker 10: amazing point around freedom of speech in that we support 1884 01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:41,559 Speaker 10: freedom of speech, but where we're conflicted is if people 1885 01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:44,120 Speaker 10: are just spewing propaganda and lies. 1886 01:34:44,920 --> 01:34:46,600 Speaker 11: That's where we don't want them to. 1887 01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:49,840 Speaker 9: But then it's but that that's but that's my next 1888 01:34:49,920 --> 01:34:51,519 Speaker 9: kind of thing, because you say, like we should hear 1889 01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:52,040 Speaker 9: these people. 1890 01:34:52,560 --> 01:34:54,120 Speaker 6: I really think it's some people we just don't need 1891 01:34:54,160 --> 01:34:58,040 Speaker 6: to hear if they're talking that bullshit like you know 1892 01:34:58,200 --> 01:35:02,000 Speaker 6: me Tommy old time. 1893 01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:04,519 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, like that, like when I saw like you 1894 01:35:04,560 --> 01:35:05,360 Speaker 2: don't give her any air? 1895 01:35:05,479 --> 01:35:06,080 Speaker 6: Ye don't you know what? 1896 01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:06,920 Speaker 2: We don't talk about her. 1897 01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:12,040 Speaker 10: It exists because we're talking about her. So you know what, 1898 01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:13,240 Speaker 10: let's just put that. 1899 01:35:14,360 --> 01:35:14,920 Speaker 6: We don't need to hear. 1900 01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:17,360 Speaker 10: Huh, what do you think? 1901 01:35:18,240 --> 01:35:20,639 Speaker 12: I want to know your opinion on Howard Schultz. 1902 01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:29,479 Speaker 10: I think he's an extraordinary businessman. I think, listen, he's 1903 01:35:29,479 --> 01:35:33,040 Speaker 10: an unbelievable success story. I think that coming off the 1904 01:35:33,120 --> 01:35:38,240 Speaker 10: last election and looking at at at politics historically, we 1905 01:35:38,320 --> 01:35:41,400 Speaker 10: have a two party system, and the two party system 1906 01:35:41,479 --> 01:35:44,639 Speaker 10: might stink, it might be unfair, but that's what we got. 1907 01:35:45,640 --> 01:35:49,600 Speaker 10: Mike Bloomberg has spent millions of dollars researching what it 1908 01:35:49,640 --> 01:35:52,080 Speaker 10: would look like to run as an independent. He's done 1909 01:35:52,120 --> 01:35:55,040 Speaker 10: the math and he goes it doesn't work. He didn't 1910 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:57,720 Speaker 10: run last time because he knew that running was only 1911 01:35:57,760 --> 01:36:01,240 Speaker 10: going to help President Trump win again. The concern for 1912 01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:03,360 Speaker 10: Howard Schaltz, if he goes to run as an independent, 1913 01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:07,760 Speaker 10: is only going to advance President Trump. And I think 1914 01:36:07,880 --> 01:36:11,400 Speaker 10: it takes a whole lot of hootspot or brazenness to 1915 01:36:11,600 --> 01:36:15,839 Speaker 10: think that you can win outside the system. System stinks, 1916 01:36:16,200 --> 01:36:18,439 Speaker 10: but unfortunately you got to figure out how to win 1917 01:36:18,520 --> 01:36:19,040 Speaker 10: in the system. 1918 01:36:19,120 --> 01:36:21,400 Speaker 5: Wait, has he been forgiven outside of Starbucks? 1919 01:36:21,680 --> 01:36:21,880 Speaker 6: Yeah? 1920 01:36:21,920 --> 01:36:25,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah he did.

It's Common, the 1923 01:36:42,560 --> 01:36:43,679 Speaker 9: same guy in every part. 1924 01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:45,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, missed that Zara joke.

And I saw 1936 01:37:20,800 --> 01:37:22,720 Speaker 10: this guy for the first time like nine months ago, 1937 01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:24,479 Speaker 10: Jerry Seinfeld had a night with sort of all of 1938 01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:25,400 Speaker 10: his favorite comedians. 1939 01:37:26,000 --> 01:37:27,799 Speaker 11: I urge you look him up on YouTube. 1940 01:37:27,840 --> 01:37:30,800 Speaker 10: I think he is something else.

And what 2109 01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:25,080 Speaker 10: people go through who are running office, running for office 2110 01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:29,280 Speaker 10: is so brutal that I just wouldn't And. 2111 01:45:29,320 --> 01:45:32,120 Speaker 13: I hypothetically all that aside, like where do you have 2112 01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:36,760 Speaker 13: a where do you have a louder voice or more 2113 01:45:37,320 --> 01:45:38,400 Speaker 13: chance to affect change? 2114 01:45:38,680 --> 01:45:41,160 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it's pretty good where I am right now. 2115 01:45:41,520 --> 01:45:44,080 Speaker 10: What I wish we could do, and I don't see 2116 01:45:44,120 --> 01:45:50,960 Speaker 10: it done enough, is actually cover thorny cultural issues because 2117 01:45:50,960 --> 01:45:53,559 Speaker 10: what I'm afraid of right now is we're not talking 2118 01:45:53,600 --> 01:45:54,839 Speaker 10: about a lot of hard topics. 2119 01:45:55,120 --> 01:45:58,160 Speaker 2: Well, yeahs won't repeat, especially the cable news. It's like 2120 01:45:58,240 --> 01:45:59,400 Speaker 2: a fifteen minute. 2121 01:45:59,160 --> 01:46:00,720 Speaker 11: But it's also arrow what we cover. 2122 01:46:00,840 --> 01:46:04,680 Speaker 10: But there's lots of topics that because we're accusing one 2123 01:46:04,680 --> 01:46:08,080 Speaker 10: another of being ignorant, or being closed minded, or being stupid, 2124 01:46:08,680 --> 01:46:13,120 Speaker 10: instead of continuing the conversation, we're getting silent. Me too 2125 01:46:13,240 --> 01:46:16,760 Speaker 10: is a really good example. So for me, covering me 2126 01:46:16,880 --> 01:46:20,200 Speaker 10: too is very complicated. I don't think it's black and white. 2127 01:46:20,840 --> 01:46:24,400 Speaker 10: And when you try, yes, but when you try to 2128 01:46:24,880 --> 01:46:28,640 Speaker 10: dig into that, you get shut down. And what it 2129 01:46:28,800 --> 01:46:33,400 Speaker 10: does is people who aren't necessarily stakeholders in that, like me, 2130 01:46:34,160 --> 01:46:37,040 Speaker 10: I find myself retreating and saying, you know what, I'm 2131 01:46:37,080 --> 01:46:37,479 Speaker 10: just not going to. 2132 01:46:39,040 --> 01:46:40,840 Speaker 11: And so like a year of a year. 2133 01:46:40,720 --> 01:46:43,720 Speaker 10: Ago, I was doing actually patau but in La the 2134 01:46:43,800 --> 01:46:46,599 Speaker 10: conference where Amir and I met, and I was doing 2135 01:46:46,640 --> 01:46:50,240 Speaker 10: a town hall about me too, and I tried to 2136 01:46:50,320 --> 01:46:53,400 Speaker 10: bring up the idea of you know, there's a spectrum 2137 01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:55,519 Speaker 10: and can we talk about forgiveness at all? 2138 01:46:56,439 --> 01:46:56,920 Speaker 2: And and. 2139 01:46:59,640 --> 01:47:02,519 Speaker 10: It was an know and one woman stood up and 2140 01:47:02,640 --> 01:47:06,200 Speaker 10: she said, absolutely not. I never want for all of 2141 01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:08,160 Speaker 10: the women in the world who have ever suffered from this, 2142 01:47:08,360 --> 01:47:10,840 Speaker 10: for this, I never want to talk about. I never 2143 01:47:10,880 --> 01:47:12,679 Speaker 10: want to hear from those guys. And so I said, okay, 2144 01:47:12,960 --> 01:47:18,000 Speaker 10: And another woman stood up and said, corporate America was 2145 01:47:18,160 --> 01:47:23,880 Speaker 10: built by a white supremacist patriarchy and until that's blown up, 2146 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:27,240 Speaker 10: this conversation is moot. And I'm not saying that that 2147 01:47:27,360 --> 01:47:30,080 Speaker 10: woman is wrong, but what I am saying is that 2148 01:47:30,280 --> 01:47:34,479 Speaker 10: point is also what she's saying is somewhat pointless. Because 2149 01:47:34,560 --> 01:47:39,080 Speaker 10: right now, corporate America is run by white guys, more 2150 01:47:39,120 --> 01:47:41,880 Speaker 10: guys named John and David than women total. And don't 2151 01:47:41,920 --> 01:47:44,880 Speaker 10: get me started on African Americans. So unless you can 2152 01:47:44,960 --> 01:47:48,320 Speaker 10: find a way to have a constructive conversation, they're going 2153 01:47:48,400 --> 01:47:50,320 Speaker 10: to go uh huh uh huh, and they're going to 2154 01:47:50,360 --> 01:47:50,960 Speaker 10: walk out the room. 2155 01:47:51,040 --> 01:47:56,080 Speaker 6: But I think before we bring up forgiveness, which is 2156 01:47:56,280 --> 01:48:02,200 Speaker 6: a point that I see, we never talk about justice absolutely, 2157 01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:07,439 Speaker 6: and you know, and that's sort of like, Okay, I 2158 01:48:07,560 --> 01:48:10,320 Speaker 6: went months ago when I went to the oscars. 2159 01:48:16,200 --> 01:48:19,680 Speaker 10: For for people who have committed the most offensive of assaults. 2160 01:48:20,120 --> 01:48:24,160 Speaker 10: I mean forgiveness in terms of just cultural forgiveness. We're 2161 01:48:24,200 --> 01:48:27,120 Speaker 10: getting more mature. We're seeing people in a different. 2162 01:48:26,920 --> 01:48:29,880 Speaker 9: Way saying you're not allowed to grow, like you're not 2163 01:48:30,000 --> 01:48:32,439 Speaker 9: allowed to like we talk about the whole councel culture 2164 01:48:32,439 --> 01:48:34,560 Speaker 9: and everything. I mean, the thing about it is just 2165 01:48:34,640 --> 01:48:38,200 Speaker 9: that if you're if you see people, if you commit 2166 01:48:38,280 --> 01:48:40,920 Speaker 9: any kind of transgression or whatever, and you see that 2167 01:48:41,000 --> 01:48:44,120 Speaker 9: you're never gonna be forgiven, then you have no impetus 2168 01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:46,120 Speaker 9: to change, Like you know what I'm saying.

And it's very rare 2379 01:58:50,320 --> 01:58:52,960 Speaker 10: for Rachel Maddout to cry. And I was going on 2380 01:58:53,120 --> 01:58:56,680 Speaker 10: right after Rachel and it was in the last moments 2381 01:58:56,720 --> 01:58:59,360 Speaker 10: of her shows when she found out that there were 2382 01:58:59,440 --> 01:59:03,560 Speaker 10: what's called tender age detention centers for children who were 2383 01:59:03,600 --> 01:59:07,520 Speaker 10: separated who were under the age of three, and Rachel 2384 01:59:07,640 --> 01:59:09,640 Speaker 10: was on talk about it, and she started crying on air. 2385 01:59:10,200 --> 01:59:12,800 Speaker 10: And then when Rachel handed off to me, I was 2386 01:59:13,160 --> 01:59:15,640 Speaker 10: really crying on air, and I sort of looked at 2387 01:59:15,640 --> 01:59:20,680 Speaker 10: the camera because Evanka first started Ivanka Trump and first 2388 01:59:20,760 --> 01:59:24,360 Speaker 10: Lady Milania Trump always say, you know, Milania's whole thing is, 2389 01:59:24,400 --> 01:59:27,000 Speaker 10: you know, she's a devoted mother, And Evanka always says, 2390 01:59:27,160 --> 01:59:30,200 Speaker 10: I stand for the advancement of women and girls. And 2391 01:59:30,280 --> 01:59:32,120 Speaker 10: the thing is, when you have the privilege of saying 2392 01:59:32,200 --> 01:59:35,080 Speaker 10: I stand for something, that means you stood in the 2393 01:59:35,200 --> 01:59:36,720 Speaker 10: face of adversity. 2394 01:59:36,280 --> 01:59:37,640 Speaker 11: You stood up for something. 2395 01:59:38,080 --> 01:59:41,920 Speaker 10: And so I was so devastated by this idea of 2396 01:59:42,080 --> 01:59:46,280 Speaker 10: babies being taken from their mothers. Really you almost couldn't 2397 01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:48,000 Speaker 10: even understand what I was saying. I was crying so 2398 01:59:48,120 --> 01:59:50,960 Speaker 10: hard on air, and some people after were like, oh, 2399 01:59:51,040 --> 01:59:52,680 Speaker 10: that was real emotion and that was raw and that 2400 01:59:52,800 --> 01:59:55,839 Speaker 10: was great, but it really wasn't. And after the president 2401 01:59:55,840 --> 01:59:57,880 Speaker 10: of NBC's name is Andy Lack, who I worked for, 2402 01:59:57,960 --> 02:00:01,480 Speaker 10: it at Bloomberg too, gave me graded and he said, 2403 02:00:01,960 --> 02:00:06,240 Speaker 10: you can be real and you can be emotional on television, 2404 02:00:06,600 --> 02:00:11,000 Speaker 10: but it is your job to deliver this information. And 2405 02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:13,920 Speaker 10: the example he gave, he said, if someone died and 2406 02:00:14,240 --> 02:00:19,120 Speaker 10: and two of us performed eulogies the same script and 2407 02:00:19,520 --> 02:00:23,120 Speaker 10: I did it hyperventilating and crying with no control of 2408 02:00:23,200 --> 02:00:26,000 Speaker 10: my emotions, you'd walk away and be like, oh my god, 2409 02:00:26,080 --> 02:00:30,760 Speaker 10: Stephanie was devastated and she was crushed. Can if you 2410 02:00:30,880 --> 02:00:34,520 Speaker 10: gave the same eulogy, the same words, but you were controlled, 2411 02:00:34,800 --> 02:00:37,120 Speaker 10: You could be emotional but controlled and knew that it 2412 02:00:37,240 --> 02:00:40,800 Speaker 10: was your job to deliver that message. People would forever 2413 02:00:41,240 --> 02:00:44,800 Speaker 10: remember that message. So I think, to me, as a 2414 02:00:44,920 --> 02:00:48,240 Speaker 10: viewer or somebody who's in it, actually the best you 2415 02:00:48,360 --> 02:00:51,960 Speaker 10: can be is your real self. But you're not your 2416 02:00:52,000 --> 02:00:55,800 Speaker 10: real self sitting on a couch crying and screaming and wailing. 2417 02:00:56,320 --> 02:00:58,760 Speaker 10: You've got to be sort of the boss of the 2418 02:00:58,840 --> 02:01:01,840 Speaker 10: table and saying I'm here to deliver this to you 2419 02:01:02,000 --> 02:01:04,280 Speaker 10: in the best way I can. But something I think, 2420 02:01:04,360 --> 02:01:07,040 Speaker 10: and cable news has given us the opportunity to do it. 2421 02:01:08,080 --> 02:01:11,120 Speaker 10: Unlike what sort of traditional network news is a we 2422 02:01:11,240 --> 02:01:14,040 Speaker 10: have more time, but b it's edgier and we can 2423 02:01:14,160 --> 02:01:17,240 Speaker 10: be ourselves, and I don't mean like our opinionatedselves, but 2424 02:01:17,680 --> 02:01:20,400 Speaker 10: our real selves. And I can see a difference of 2425 02:01:20,400 --> 02:01:22,400 Speaker 10: people who sort of grew up, you know, in a 2426 02:01:22,560 --> 02:01:26,400 Speaker 10: very traditional journalistic kind of network news place where like 2427 02:01:26,840 --> 02:01:28,600 Speaker 10: never give yourself, never give. 2428 02:01:28,480 --> 02:01:31,440 Speaker 11: Emotion, I would not have I feel like that. 2429 02:01:31,560 --> 02:01:34,600 Speaker 10: I would not have gone into this business if I 2430 02:01:34,640 --> 02:01:36,600 Speaker 10: couldn't be my First of all, I went into it 2431 02:01:36,680 --> 02:01:38,920 Speaker 10: too late.

Here is the information. You 2435 02:01:50,440 --> 02:01:54,120 Speaker 10: could get the information from the internet. You can try 2436 02:01:54,160 --> 02:01:55,720 Speaker 10: to give it in the best way you can. 2437 02:01:56,440 --> 02:01:58,200 Speaker 2: We had to do radio on that day.

Editing room definitely would have 2462 02:02:59,080 --> 02:03:01,480 Speaker 9: been a problem because you getting all the unedited footage, 2463 02:03:01,480 --> 02:03:04,280 Speaker 9: You're seeing everything that's not going to you know, not 2464 02:03:04,440 --> 02:03:06,360 Speaker 9: going to make it the air.
