That's a job. 516 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 5: If folks aren't feeling appreciated in their lives, maybe they 517 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 5: should pay attention to their personal relationships. It's not a 518 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 5: random store employee's responsibility to fix. 519 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 1: That, right, But it all boils down to society. Is like, 520 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: make me feel good, make me feel great.

For some reason, 593 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 5: my immediate reaction to him was fuck out of here. Honestly, 594 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 5: this is still how I feel. I just didn't want 595 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 5: to hear it from him or other men who thought 596 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 5: like him. I've always been a huge fan of his, 597 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 5: but lately he's been turning me off a bit. I 598 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,160 Speaker 5: had to remind myself though, that I was once young 599 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 5: with problematic thoughts and feelings. I had to grow and 600 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 5: learn the things that I do now. It took people 601 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 5: calling me out on my shit. I know I should 602 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 5: want the same space to grow for others. Again, usually 603 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 5: I do allow that space. My energy, though, is running low. Yeah, 604 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,719 Speaker 5: I've seen that a few times from different people, especially 605 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 5: in the way of this R. Kelly shit, because you 606 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,199 Speaker 5: got men that were either complicit or silent or have 607 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 5: their own demons coming through now and being like, yeah, 608 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 5: so I fuck R Kelly. And you know, I also 609 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 5: learned that this was bad and there will always be 610 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 5: I think, especially for women LGBTQ people within our community, 611 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 5: the black community, There's always gonna be some resentment to 612 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 5: the fact that black men have a privilege that allows 613 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 5: us to learn these things late in life or not 614 00:28:58,960 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 5: at all. 615 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 4: And what we do is such a revelation to us. 616 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 5: Right, oh my god, these women as people, you know, 617 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 5: that kind of shit, and they here's little girls. 618 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 4: You probably shouldn't be having sex with them. 619 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 5: Like I'm sure it does annoy people and make you 620 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 5: roll your eyes. I know with racial things, a lot 621 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 5: of times Black people have that reaction where it's like 622 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 5: some white person goes, oh my god, these niggas are people, 623 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 5: and we are like, ah, well, yeah, that's the fucking point. 624 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 5: We've been saying that our whole lives and with misogyny 625 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 5: black men, we don't have to really live under it 626 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 5: in the ways that it oppresses us. We do have 627 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 5: some effects from living under it, but most of the 628 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 5: time we blame that on women. We don't blame that 629 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 5: on on the other men that cause it. We always 630 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 5: blame it on women and go, yeah, you made me misogynistic, 631 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 5: you made me be this way. So there's a privilege 632 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 5: to it, and I'm sure that people are resentful. You 633 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 5: know when I like, I brought this up a long 634 00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 5: time ago.

And I would hope that 644 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 5: I could do a professional interview with anybody. I would 645 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 5: hope that even if it was like some racist motherfucker, 646 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 5: I would be able to be like, Okay, let me 647 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 5: ask him the questions that I want to ask without 648 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 5: like yelling at them and shit. But that's that's privilege. 649 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 5: That's my privilege right there. Not everybody, like, not everyone 650 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 5: in our community has that. There's some people that would 651 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 5: have been like, I can't even talk to this nigga, 652 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 5: you know. 653 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 4: So that's the like, that's the thing. 654 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 5: And with Chance coming around on this, he's actually coming 655 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 5: around earlier than most men, Like most men don't come 656 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:56,959 Speaker 5: around on the shit. What is he like twenty three, 657 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 5: twenty five or something? Let me look up his age. 658 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 5: But most most black men don't come around on this 659 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 5: at all. 660 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: They're much older. 661 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, And if they. 662 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 5: Do come around on it, it's to twenty five years old, 663 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 5: so it's he's still fairly young on this. Most black 664 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 5: men don't come around on this at all. They never 665 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 5: admit to any complicity in it. They never admit to 666 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 5: the things he said, Like I didn't believe him because 667 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 5: they were black women and black girls, and we don't 668 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 5: value them like he made it personal, Like I didn't 669 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 5: value them in a way like what he could have said. 670 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 5: Society taught me not to value these people. And you know, 671 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 5: I love my mother and my sister. And he didn't 672 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,959 Speaker 5: do any of the top no please, And I think 673 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 5: that's what people say that black men feel, and it's 674 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 5: what people say they want black men to admit, right, 675 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 5: And then when he admitted it, they still were mad 676 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 5: because the emotional response is still one of like go 677 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 5: fuck yourself. You know, it's they're like they people need 678 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 5: time to be able to cope with this, and they 679 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 5: don't personally no chance. But I think also the last 680 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 5: thing I'll say about it is there's a lot there's 681 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 5: not a lot of honesty because people haven't really sissed out, 682 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 5: sessed out their own emotions on these things, like we 683 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 5: need to be honest about our own emotions. 684 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 4: Are you willing to accept the apology that you're demanding. 685 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: Right, And for a lot of people, the answer is no. 686 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 4: Right most of us that will not. 687 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 5: I'm not a demand of apology person, but most of 688 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 5: the people that demand these apologies online and stuff and 689 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 5: want to see this quote unquote work done and reconciliation 690 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 5: and all this. 691 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 4: Most of these people are not willing to accept these apologies. 692 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: No matter what you say. And we be and y'all know, 693 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 1: we've been getting as apologies forever, and a lot of 694 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 1: people will let that shit slide. You get a succealing 695 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: and people act like they giving you a fuck as apology. Now, 696 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: at one time that he point the finger at anybody else, 697 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,239 Speaker 1: he said, y'all, it was me. I did it. I 698 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 1: fucked up. I'm sorry, my bad. He didn't throw another 699 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: woman up as a shield to protect him from his 700 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: fucking actions. He took full responsibility. And this is what 701 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: you ask for. And that's why I'm to the point 702 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: that niggas don't know what they want because you get it, 703 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: and you sedill reject it. 704 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, And I wouldn't even say people let the messed 705 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 5: up apologies slide. They don't let any of the apologies 706 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 5: go like, they don't accept any of them. So you 707 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,640 Speaker 5: know which is you know to me, if I understand 708 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 5: that you give an apology and it's not up to 709 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 5: you to make someone accept it or to let them 710 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 5: accept it, that's fine. 711 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 4: But I'm not one of those people. 712 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 5: And I also don't know that those people speak for everybody, correct. 713 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 5: I think that's a small group of people who are like, 714 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 5: fuck everybody, fuck everything, everything's not good enough. 715 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 4: And honestly, that's not my energy. 716 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 5: Those people are fucking bitter, they're hurt, they're whatever, and 717 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 5: they're gonna hold on to that shit forever and nothing's 718 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 5: gonna ever change in their lives until they're ready to 719 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 5: move on, and that is their prerogative. I'm just not 720 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 5: one of those people, and I don't begrudge those people. 721 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,760 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna argue with them. That's your own personal 722 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 5: perspective on life, but I don't want it around me. 723 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 5: I do need people to have the energy to forgive. 724 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,760 Speaker 5: I do need people to have the energy to allow 725 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 5: themselves to move on, not for the person who offended 726 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,760 Speaker 5: you or whatever, but for yourself, Like, I'm not willing 727 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 5: to just hold on to some shit forever, cause it 728 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,800 Speaker 5: does affect me, and I'm not gonna lie to anyone 729 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 5: about that. Some people say it doesn't affect them, that's 730 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:38,800 Speaker 5: how they get down, that's their prerogative. I would question 731 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,399 Speaker 5: the honesty of that, because some people say that. 732 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 4: Shit and then you look at every action they have 733 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 4: and you. 734 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,399 Speaker 5: Can tell they're still hurt and it does affect them, 735 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 5: and they're not able to let it go. They just 736 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 5: keep telling everybody I'm fine, I'm fine. But you're looking 737 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 5: at them and you're like, you're not fine, dude, You're 738 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 5: not fine. Something's wrong with you, and moving on is 739 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,719 Speaker 5: hurting you. Not being able to move on as some 740 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 5: type of power you're holding onto or something, and it's 741 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 5: going to keep affecting you. And nobody wants to have 742 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 5: that moment of reflection on that. But anyway, what chance 743 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 5: is a little different because it's the immediacy of it. 744 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 5: He apologized on Saturday. Yeah, people weren't really like let 745 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 5: it go by Sunday. It's fine, but yeah, I live 746 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 5: in Chicago and it often seems like everybody. Everyone knows 747 00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 5: someone who knows a girl affected about R Kelly's predatory behavior. 748 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 5: So many people have a story. It was just a 749 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 5: nun thing out here. So for him to say he 750 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 5: never saw a picture of R Kelly's abuse accusers felt 751 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 5: like a lie in success. So many people blew it off, 752 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 5: just like he did. Yeah, well, I don't know. Yeah, 753 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 5: that's up to you to determine. 754 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 2: I know. 755 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 5: His I think his point was trying to say something like, 756 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 5: in his mind, he's just a picture. These these this 757 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 5: conspiracy to bring this man down, and he never personalized 758 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 5: it on that level. But yeah, I don't know. He 759 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 5: could be all of this shit could be lies. He 760 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 5: could be making up the apology and everything. I don't 761 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,920 Speaker 5: know this, dude. I'm just going out for what we 762 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 5: saw as a black woman. It feels like we're all 763 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 5: like all we are doing is giving out chances for 764 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 5: black men to grow and truly love us to do 765 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 5: the work to show that, and we end up being hurt. 766 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:17,839 Speaker 1: That's true. 767 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 5: It gets exhausting. It makes me angry and sad, and 768 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,479 Speaker 5: I can't lie. What else do we need to say 769 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 5: to do to get people, especially our men, to hear 770 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 5: us how do we how long do we need to 771 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 5: wait for them to grow out of this misogyny? So 772 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 5: much of this could have been stopped if so many 773 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,440 Speaker 5: people had spoke up and out against R. Kelly and 774 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 5: didn't give him a platform. There is also part of 775 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 5: me asking myself, am I being too easy on chance 776 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 5: right now writing this email? 777 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? 778 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 5: Don't seem like you're being easy on them to me? 779 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 5: But yeah, maybe I'm reading it wrong. But I mean 780 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 5: you basically say he probably lying and not being sincere. 781 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 5: I don't think that's necessarily going easy. 782 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,919 Speaker 1: On them, No, And you know, and like right to say, 783 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: we don't personally know him. I don't know. You might 784 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: have a personal relationship with him the person, but I 785 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: don't personally know him or anything like that. So in 786 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: his mind he might have been like, well, since I 787 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:15,040 Speaker 1: didn't physically see them, you know, people talked about them, 788 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 1: But he might have been like, I ain't see a 789 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 1: picture of it. I didn't personalize it, you know, I 790 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 1: just looked at him as just normal fast as girls 791 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 1: or how you know, the things we normally say in 792 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 1: our community. And I do understand your hurt, and I 793 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 1: do understand your pain, but also the issues and the 794 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 1: problems with black men. Let's keep it real. It is 795 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: not black women's responsibility to fix it. But a lot 796 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,240 Speaker 1: of black men look at black women like, I'm broken, 797 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: Fix me, bitch, I'm broken, fix me, fix me, fix me. 798 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 1: That's not my job, nor is it my responsibility. I 799 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: was forced to grow up. I was forced to look 800 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: at things, and you should be too. But society coddles 801 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:54,640 Speaker 1: and cradles you because you know, Mama loved the little boys, 802 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: and I understand that. But at the same time, that 803 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,919 Speaker 1: little boy is going to grow up into an adult, 804 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 1: and you know, when he grew up into adult, he 805 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,160 Speaker 1: has to look at the reality or of are my 806 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,359 Speaker 1: actions contributing to these things? And on some you know, 807 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 1: society has raised a bunch of black men that don't 808 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:19,640 Speaker 1: care and don't love the women around them, and that's 809 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: something that we can't fix as black women. You know, 810 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 1: like we tell white people, get your people. Black men, 811 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: get your men, you know, get your boys, you know, 812 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 1: get your young men. You know, talk to them, you know, 813 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: tell them this behavior is not correct. But you get 814 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 1: the reverse. You get, ah, they shit beholds and tricks. 815 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:41,080 Speaker 1: You know, you get fast as girls, you get you 816 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: know all that shit, and so when you bought up 817 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: in that environment, and society in general tells people that, 818 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,799 Speaker 1: but particularly in talking about the black community here, you 819 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: buy into it because you're not taught the opposite of that. 820 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:55,440 Speaker 5: Well also, uh, even a black men check other black 821 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 5: men black women aren't gonna like how it's done. Nope, 822 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 5: it's not going to pass all the sectional feminist walk test, 823 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,840 Speaker 5: Like seeing how that sausage is made is not gonna 824 00:39:05,080 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 5: it's not gonna look like Twitter and how and it's 825 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 5: like clean line. This shit is affect The shit has 826 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 5: affected us so deeply, and we have bought into it 827 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 5: so much culturally. And I don't mean this to distinguish 828 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 5: black men from any other men, to be honest, I 829 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,879 Speaker 5: think all men are misogynistic, and all men are most 830 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,839 Speaker 5: harmful to the women that are the closest to their proximity. 831 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 5: So you know, I'm sure white men are very misogynistic 832 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 5: to white women. I'm sure Indian men are very misogynists 833 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,000 Speaker 5: to Indian women.

This is 1034 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 5: another thing that I think people don't know because maybe 1035 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:46,360 Speaker 5: they're going by porn or something where the eighteen is 1036 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 5: how old you got to be to dou porn or 1037 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 5: to go to military. 1038 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 4: The age of consent is not eighteen everywhere. 1039 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:54,200 Speaker 5: So a lot of this stuff that people are pointing 1040 00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 5: out where they're like, it's seventeen and he kissed her, 1041 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 5: And I don't know why he ain't in jail, because 1042 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 5: you might not.

But when people bring these 1046 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,399 Speaker 5: things up, that might be the problem because a lot 1047 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,920 Speaker 5: of this discussion is about morality, not legality, right, So 1048 00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:19,879 Speaker 5: the things that are legal in a lot of these states, 1049 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 5: even with r Kelly having sex that seventeen year old 1050 00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,640 Speaker 5: girl from Atlanta where from Georgia and then going to 1051 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 5: Florida and having sex with her, those that might not 1052 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 5: be illegal, Like people are like tech lock him up 1053 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:34,759 Speaker 5: for that. That might he may be well within his 1054 00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 5: legal rights to do that shit. The problem is morally, 1055 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,920 Speaker 5: we're like, this is not morally up on the up 1056 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 5: and up. And if people feel that way about Drake, 1057 00:49:44,120 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 5: where we don't have necessarily proof that he's doing anything illegal, 1058 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 5: I still have to see how they could be like, 1059 00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:53,480 Speaker 5: but morally, he's just a fucking creep.

I 1115 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 5: don't blame the parents, I blame the perpetrator. But parents 1116 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:38,399 Speaker 5: have responsibility to me. There's a difference between blame and responsibility. 1117 00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 5: Saying someone should have accountability and responsibility to me doesn't 1118 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 5: mean I blame them for what happened to their children. 1119 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,440 Speaker 5: Responsibility and accountability can be worked with. If I took 1120 00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 5: a child to the store and they got lowered away 1121 00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,240 Speaker 5: by a stranger, I'm not to blame for the stranger's actions, 1122 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 5: but I would feel responsible because I should have been 1123 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,680 Speaker 5: more diligent. I'm sure the parents are heartbroken, but we 1124 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 5: put a lot of stigma on responsibility because we use 1125 00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 5: it like blame. Uh sure, that's the difference between responsibility 1126 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 5: and blame. I think as well. But what I saw 1127 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 5: was not responsibility. That's not what I saw. I saw 1128 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 5: that wouldn't happen to my kid. 1129 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:11,320 Speaker 1: That's what I saw. 1130 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:14,359 Speaker 4: It was that simple.

Of 1159 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:38,360 Speaker 5: course the parents are gonna feel responsible. You're responsible for 1160 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:42,960 Speaker 5: your child, so of course you're gonna feel responsible. And 1161 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 5: I think the worst of the parents are the ones 1162 00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:49,439 Speaker 5: that are like not saying anything, that are like, yeah, 1163 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,880 Speaker 5: my daughter's there since she was fourteen, and you know what, 1164 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 5: they ain't doing that wrong, leave us alone. Those are 1165 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,160 Speaker 5: the ones that I don't understand, you know. But also 1166 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,239 Speaker 5: I don't have that trauma. I don't know what they 1167 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:04,839 Speaker 5: what the experience was like, and I don't know how 1168 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,480 Speaker 5: you rationalize something like that, Like I don't know how 1169 00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:11,120 Speaker 5: Leah's parents can be like leave r Kelly and don't 1170 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:13,719 Speaker 5: talk about my daughter no more, because I haven't felt it, 1171 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:16,560 Speaker 5: you know, But it has to be a feeling that 1172 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,440 Speaker 5: that makes them be like, I don't want you to 1173 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:22,000 Speaker 5: quote unquote tarnish her legacy by attacking it to this monster. 1174 00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,759 Speaker 5: And the difficult level of computations you gotta do on 1175 00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,160 Speaker 5: your mental to be able to get to that point. 1176 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 5: I don't understand. I hope I never understand, because to me, 1177 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,439 Speaker 5: it's very simple. But to them, I don't know. It's 1178 00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 5: something about like I don't know, it's something that I 1179 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 5: can't understand. But I feel what you're saying. 1180 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:40,960 Speaker 4: This is not to say parents aren't responsible for their 1181 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 4: children and that there's no such thing as bad parenting 1182 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:44,719 Speaker 4: and shit like that. There is. 1183 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:48,720 Speaker 5: I just don't know that is as simple as applying 1184 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 5: that to these folks. 1185 00:55:50,120 --> 00:55:52,640 Speaker 4: And I feel like it's not the priority. So I'm 1186 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 4: letting it slide. But but I get your points. Some 1187 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 4: people aren't gonna. 1188 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,200 Speaker 5: Let it slide, correct even he says, I have watched 1189 00:55:58,239 --> 00:55:59,719 Speaker 5: all six hours of the documentary. 1190 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 1: I have. 1191 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 5: I watched all six hours of the documentary. Some of 1192 00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 5: it I had heard about and some I didn't. 1193 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:05,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, same here. 1194 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:07,239 Speaker 5: I know some people could separate the art from the 1195 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 5: artists in a lot of cases, but this is one 1196 00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:10,840 Speaker 5: I cannot now that I know most of the songs 1197 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 5: are about his personal experiences, which were at the expense. 1198 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 1: Of young girls of color. 1199 00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,800 Speaker 5: I won't play his music anymore. It's fuck him forever, 1200 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 5: and I hope he burns in hell. I feel you've 1201 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:25,160 Speaker 5: been on that train. It's wild though that it's wild 1202 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:25,879 Speaker 5: that there was still shit. 1203 00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 1: I didn't know. Yeah, a lot of shit I didn't know. 1204 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,719 Speaker 5: It's wild because I the older stuff was not as 1205 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 5: known to me because I really just did. I loved 1206 00:56:34,040 --> 00:56:36,400 Speaker 5: hip hop, but I was not reading every fucking magazine. 1207 00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 5: I wasn't looking at all the interviews on MTV. Some 1208 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:42,799 Speaker 5: of that footage was brand new to me, Like same 1209 00:56:42,960 --> 00:56:45,160 Speaker 5: they did interviews in the same close. 1210 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:46,640 Speaker 4: It was. 1211 00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 5: It was crazy some like I knew some of the 1212 00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:50,680 Speaker 5: later stuff since we've done the show, especially because we've 1213 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 5: been on his ass from jump. 1214 00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:56,400 Speaker 4: But yeah, I just didn't even know some of these things. 1215 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:57,759 Speaker 1: Because I was living some of that stuff and just 1216 00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,799 Speaker 1: and just did not know. Like I said, I'm not 1217 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:03,719 Speaker 1: I've been in Charlotte, North Carolina, So I did not 1218 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,360 Speaker 1: hear about a lot of this stuff until action, until 1219 00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 1: I was older. 1220 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 5: Actually, yeah, technology really caught up with him, like the 1221 00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 5: fact that our stories become global instead of local. It 1222 00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:15,760 Speaker 5: caught up with him because people are like in Chicago, 1223 00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:19,439 Speaker 5: we knew all this, Trey says, Hey, Roder Karen, here's 1224 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,440 Speaker 5: what I think about think it would take to finally 1225 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 5: bring R. 1226 00:57:21,920 --> 00:57:22,479 Speaker 4: Kelly down. 1227 00:57:22,800 --> 00:57:24,600 Speaker 5: A judge similar to the judge of the Copsy case 1228 00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 5: who wants to make it happen no matter what. 1229 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 1: A judge who can't. 1230 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:29,120 Speaker 5: Be paid off or to drop the case, like the 1231 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:31,439 Speaker 5: judge in Florida that dropped the child porn case against 1232 00:57:31,560 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 5: r Kelly probably was a prosecutor who wants to make 1233 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:36,720 Speaker 5: it happen no matter what and can't be paid off. 1234 00:57:36,760 --> 00:57:38,800 Speaker 5: To a change of venue to some other county other 1235 00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,680 Speaker 5: than Cook County if possible. Finally, people who have to 1236 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 5: keep protesting that the people that are giving R Kelly checks, 1237 00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:48,560 Speaker 5: his record, label, concert venards, etc. Once the money stops flowing, 1238 00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 5: the jail house will come calling. That's another thing. He 1239 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 5: might not be that powerful anymore, which is part of 1240 00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 5: the reason these things are getting made. But sadly, as 1241 00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 5: long as people can make money off of them, he's 1242 00:57:58,960 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 5: powerful enough. 1243 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:00,720 Speaker 1: Correct. 1244 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 5: Hopefully these sources of things can help bringing him down, 1245 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:06,400 Speaker 5: because this dude's pure evil. One of the main things 1246 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:08,439 Speaker 5: that creased me out is hearing about how he will 1247 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:10,560 Speaker 5: hang outside of the schools as soon as the school's 1248 00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 5: let out. That has been the first creepy thing I've 1249 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,640 Speaker 5: always heard about his nasty motherfucker, going all the way 1250 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:17,160 Speaker 5: back to two thousand and three, two thousand and four 1251 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 5: for me. But of course in the documentary found out 1252 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 5: he had been paying out some of the costs to 1253 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:22,720 Speaker 5: let him know something was about to go down and 1254 00:58:22,760 --> 00:58:25,120 Speaker 5: involved him, so that could explain him getting away or 1255 00:58:25,120 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 5: hanging out around that school. But still it still is 1256 00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 5: just mind boggling to me. But anyway, fuck R Kelly, 1257 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:35,080 Speaker 5: anyone protecting them. Thanks guys, yep CT says, I'm glad 1258 00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,360 Speaker 5: the victims are getting a voice, the story is being told. 1259 00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 5: Sometimes it's not about the validity of the story, it's 1260 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 5: about the timing. And with the rise of social media 1261 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 5: and introduction of the series, I think R. Kelly is 1262 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 5: going to be brought to justice, even though he's been 1263 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 5: free for too long and the documentary may have undercut 1264 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:50,880 Speaker 5: the message. In the end, the truth has been let 1265 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:52,560 Speaker 5: out and people have been forced to pick a side. 1266 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 4: I hope he goes to jail for the rest of 1267 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 4: his life. 1268 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:58,919 Speaker 5: I feel you it was something someone said that, oh yeah, 1269 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 5: in the hanging around school parking lots and shit. I 1270 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:06,600 Speaker 5: don't know the legality of that, but like, once again, 1271 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:10,160 Speaker 5: that's not that uncommon like not, and I don't mean 1272 00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 5: just R Kelly, just there are dudes that you know, 1273 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:17,680 Speaker 5: prey on these young kids. And the problem is that's 1274 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 5: the age where kids think they're grown. Yes, and they 1275 00:59:21,880 --> 00:59:24,400 Speaker 5: do have some level of autonomy. Because if you have 1276 00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 5: a child, those of you that have children that will 1277 00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 5: be teenagers, that are teenagers, that have been teenagers, you 1278 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:33,640 Speaker 5: understand that there becomes a give and take in the 1279 00:59:33,680 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 5: middle of that age somewhere where it's like, I need 1280 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 5: to be able to leave you at the home by yourself. 1281 00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:40,480 Speaker 5: I need to be able to depend on you to 1282 00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 5: get to and from school. 1283 00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:43,800 Speaker 1: On your own. I need you to be responsible. 1284 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:44,840 Speaker 4: Like it's not. 1285 00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:48,120 Speaker 5: It doesn't mean you're grown, you know, but there's some 1286 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 5: things we're gonna have to start teaching you that are 1287 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:51,880 Speaker 5: about you becoming grown. 1288 00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:53,920 Speaker 1: And it may mean you have a job. 1289 00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 5: It may mean I have to trust you that you 1290 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,640 Speaker 5: are going to your job, you know. It may mean 1291 00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:01,920 Speaker 5: that when you say you're in an after school program, 1292 01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 5: I have to believe that's where you are. 1293 01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 4: That's why when I say I. 1294 01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 5: Don't really want to get into blaming parents, because this 1295 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 5: is that age where someone that is a monstrous predator 1296 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:15,280 Speaker 5: can take advantage of the fact that you do want 1297 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:18,080 Speaker 5: your like you're not doing anything wrong to want to 1298 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:20,880 Speaker 5: trust your kid a little bit, and your kid essentially 1299 01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:25,400 Speaker 5: isn't really wrong. They're just young and dumb, so someone 1300 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:27,919 Speaker 5: can take advantage of that.

No offense to 1346 01:02:28,760 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 5: those who came up in a different manner that said R. 1347 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:33,920 Speaker 5: Kelly is not only toxic but venomous. He has allegedly 1348 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 5: spread his poison to. 1349 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,680 Speaker 1: The most susceptible individuals in our community, our young women. 1350 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:42,360 Speaker 5: To hel uh those who those who defend this monster 1351 01:02:42,520 --> 01:02:45,200 Speaker 5: and blame the victims of his abuse, and to hell 1352 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 5: with those who find can't find any empathy for the 1353 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:49,320 Speaker 5: parents that have been put in these situations. 1354 01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:50,520 Speaker 4: I watched the whole thing. 1355 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:52,960 Speaker 5: It was hard for discussing and anger about this trash 1356 01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:55,800 Speaker 5: individual and those who are complicit and hurting these children. 1357 01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,400 Speaker 5: I'm encouraging, encouraged by seeing the light is once again 1358 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 5: being placed on a piece of shit, and hope that 1359 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:05,240 Speaker 5: he is finally brought to justice. Lakida says the documentary 1360 01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 5: made me feel sad, guilty and the shame. It was 1361 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:09,080 Speaker 5: so hard to watch. I wasn't old enough to have 1362 01:03:09,120 --> 01:03:12,000 Speaker 5: done anything besides question while my aunts and uncles thought 1363 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 5: it was okay. But rather than the sector analyzed, I 1364 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,640 Speaker 5: would shrug and step in the name of love, literally 1365 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 5: falling in line with everyone else side note, I really 1366 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:23,240 Speaker 5: love that song. It's hard a bunch of question marks. 1367 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 5: Those girls were around my age at one point, what 1368 01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:30,440 Speaker 5: I have been believed. It makes me feel retroactively unprotected, 1369 01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:31,840 Speaker 5: if that makes any sense. 1370 01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:33,720 Speaker 4: And while yall, yeah, it makes perfect sense. 1371 01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:35,840 Speaker 5: And while Yon says king, I really hope my queen 1372 01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 5: has a contingency plan for what twenty nineteen may be playing, 1373 01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 5: because well, you know, I don't know what you mean 1374 01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 5: by it. By that, Uh yeah, I don't understand that 1375 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:52,440 Speaker 5: their last reference, but I guess with jay Z, yeah, 1376 01:03:52,560 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 5: but I guess I don't know how this would involve 1377 01:03:55,560 --> 01:03:58,600 Speaker 5: jay Z, to be honest, not saying that. I mean 1378 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 5: they left that part of the document the documentary, which 1379 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:01,760 Speaker 5: I thought was kind of whack. 1380 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,960 Speaker 1: But I don't see it as like. 1381 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,760 Speaker 5: Jay Z's gonna have to answer for R Kelly if 1382 01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:09,760 Speaker 5: that's the case, unless there's some criminality to it that 1383 01:04:09,880 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 5: y'all are implying, But I don't think it was. I 1384 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:16,120 Speaker 5: don't think it was any criminality by other celebrities and 1385 01:04:16,120 --> 01:04:20,720 Speaker 5: shit in this situation, I really think motherfuckers just don't care, 1386 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,320 Speaker 5: you know. Like I listen to movie trailer reviews and 1387 01:04:24,400 --> 01:04:28,080 Speaker 5: Chris has this theory that like some of these other 1388 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:30,479 Speaker 5: celebrities and stuff that weren't on the documentary and didn't 1389 01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:33,520 Speaker 5: want to call out R Kelly didn't do it because 1390 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 5: they may be on some of these sex tapes, so 1391 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:39,160 Speaker 5: he may have evidence on them is something, And I 1392 01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 5: gotta say I don't think so. Because they had the 1393 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 5: women that were girls at the time who were assaulted, 1394 01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:48,520 Speaker 5: and they were out there telling all the stuff that 1395 01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 5: happened to them. I don't think they would have been like, 1396 01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:53,240 Speaker 5: but let me protect jay Z in this situation. I 1397 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:55,040 Speaker 5: think jay Z would have been involved in him like 1398 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 5: and also R Kelly made me have sex with these 1399 01:04:58,040 --> 01:04:58,680 Speaker 5: other dudes and. 1400 01:04:58,640 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 1: Shit like that. 1401 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 4: I don't think that's why what happened. 1402 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,360 Speaker 1: He was successed with hisself, so there was no sharing. 1403 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 1: He was somebody who did not believe in cheering. 1404 01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:08,160 Speaker 5: That's how it seems to me. But let me say this, 1405 01:05:08,880 --> 01:05:14,440 Speaker 5: I think it's worse to be complicit and maybe you 1406 01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 5: didn't do anything, but it's worse to just be like, 1407 01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:20,880 Speaker 5: I didn't care. He was making money, So no, he 1408 01:05:20,920 --> 01:05:23,520 Speaker 5: doesn't have no blackmail on me. There's no I didn't 1409 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:25,720 Speaker 5: participate in this. I think what he did is fucked 1410 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:27,480 Speaker 5: up and sick. But it was a way that I 1411 01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 5: was gonna make money, and all I cared about at 1412 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:32,240 Speaker 5: the end of the day was fuck these little girls, 1413 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:33,240 Speaker 5: I'm making money. 1414 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:34,520 Speaker 4: To me, that's worse. 1415 01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 5: I don't think, like I said, I don't think you 1416 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 5: have to be complicit in the ways that like his 1417 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:43,400 Speaker 5: people around him were where they protected him and kept 1418 01:05:43,400 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 5: the girls separate and got the plane tickets and travel 1419 01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:49,920 Speaker 5: and houses. Nah, it's worse to me to be like, 1420 01:05:49,920 --> 01:05:51,440 Speaker 5: I'm gonna work with this dude because I might make 1421 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:51,920 Speaker 5: some money. 1422 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:53,000 Speaker 1: That's worse. 1423 01:05:54,400 --> 01:05:56,200 Speaker 5: Brooklyn shoe Ba says, I don't have cable, so I 1424 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:57,520 Speaker 5: didn't see it. But from what I heard, it was 1425 01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:59,760 Speaker 5: damaging enough to R Kelly, so the last hour would 1426 01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 5: not heard it. 1427 01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:03,040 Speaker 4: I liked, I liked you. It was like I didn't 1428 01:06:03,040 --> 01:06:03,320 Speaker 4: see it. 1429 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:04,720 Speaker 5: Well, let me give you my opinion on the last 1430 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,000 Speaker 5: hout my words that folks who needed to watch this 1431 01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:09,560 Speaker 5: did not yet that would be my word too, or worse, 1432 01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:12,880 Speaker 5: they watched it and didn't care anyway, which I saw. 1433 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:13,080 Speaker 1: A lot of. 1434 01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:14,200 Speaker 8: Uh. 1435 01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:18,080 Speaker 4: Peter versus Black Lives is eighteen nineteen. See what we 1436 01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:18,520 Speaker 4: got here? 1437 01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:20,040 Speaker 1: Got four comments. 1438 01:06:22,080 --> 01:06:24,760 Speaker 5: Anthony Animal thug Tato says, I think Tiffany Hattis might 1439 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:26,800 Speaker 5: have just been thrown off by the New Year's crowd 1440 01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,200 Speaker 5: or experience. One common thing I heard from listening to 1441 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:31,600 Speaker 5: different podcasts hosted by comedians is that you never do 1442 01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:34,680 Speaker 5: New Year's sets ever. These large venues are passing out 1443 01:06:34,680 --> 01:06:36,440 Speaker 5: free drinks for hours, and it makes it harder to 1444 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:38,439 Speaker 5: control when you get paid the premium to be there. 1445 01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:40,720 Speaker 5: I know she admitted the bombing, but a big crowd 1446 01:06:40,720 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 5: of people on eleven didn't help her situation. Yeah, but 1447 01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:47,960 Speaker 5: I heard, I mean she forgot her jokes. I don't know, 1448 01:06:49,280 --> 01:06:52,120 Speaker 5: like she fucked up. I mean it's okay. She can 1449 01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:56,000 Speaker 5: fuck up and still be, you know, one of our faves, 1450 01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:58,720 Speaker 5: and I still want her to do well and hopefully 1451 01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:00,439 Speaker 5: she take it as a lesson and do a job 1452 01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:04,040 Speaker 5: next time, you know. I think both things can be true. 1453 01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 5: The crowd could have been unruly. I think what I 1454 01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:09,320 Speaker 5: saw wasn't necessarily an unruly crowd other than you know, 1455 01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:11,400 Speaker 5: I saw that dude that made a video trying to 1456 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,120 Speaker 5: help her. He obviously was out of line, but it 1457 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 5: seemed like a lot of people just felt like they 1458 01:07:15,600 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 5: didn't get what that money was. They paid money for 1459 01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:21,920 Speaker 5: so it is what it is. Michelle says Rod, I 1460 01:07:21,960 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 5: have to confess that, as a person with verifiable African ancestry, 1461 01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:27,520 Speaker 5: I not only enjoyed, but actually pay good money to 1462 01:07:27,560 --> 01:07:30,440 Speaker 5: watch those talking dog movies that you say black people 1463 01:07:30,440 --> 01:07:33,880 Speaker 5: don't watch.

Carras says, 1721 01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:35,719 Speaker 5: Kevin Hark keeps addressing the controversy because he keeps getting 1722 01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:37,559 Speaker 5: asked about it on the heels his new movie release. 1723 01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 4: He's using the same talking point message because that's what you. 1724 01:19:39,960 --> 01:19:42,759 Speaker 1: Do in PR. Yeah, I feel your cares. 1725 01:19:42,760 --> 01:19:44,360 Speaker 5: But then in that case, it's stupid for him to 1726 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:47,639 Speaker 5: keep talking about this over I'm over it. And then 1727 01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:52,479 Speaker 5: let's be honest, Carris, because I'm gonna trust that you 1728 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:54,320 Speaker 5: are on the up and up. 1729 01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:56,360 Speaker 4: Does he sound like he's over it? 1730 01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:56,840 Speaker 1: No? 1731 01:19:58,200 --> 01:20:01,000 Speaker 5: Does he sound like this is just PR. This is 1732 01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:04,040 Speaker 5: what his agent told him to say. It doesn't sound 1733 01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:06,360 Speaker 5: that way to me. And maybe I'm wrong, and this 1734 01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:09,360 Speaker 5: is just how he doesn't. He's not being funny in 1735 01:20:09,400 --> 01:20:10,200 Speaker 5: these interviews. 1736 01:20:11,160 --> 01:20:14,759 Speaker 4: He's not affable. He seems defensive, he seems angry. 1737 01:20:16,600 --> 01:20:20,120 Speaker 5: And that's how That's how I feel about it. So, 1738 01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:22,840 Speaker 5: and maybe I'm wrong and I'm reading into it, but 1739 01:20:23,040 --> 01:20:25,439 Speaker 5: this doesn't feel like, Oh, this is just pr And. 1740 01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:27,840 Speaker 1: The reason how I know because I've been there before. 1741 01:20:28,479 --> 01:20:31,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, we've all been there before. We've all had things 1742 01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:32,439 Speaker 5: we weren't over we was talking about. 1743 01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:35,960 Speaker 4: I'm over it. He don't seem over it, he I mean. 1744 01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:38,559 Speaker 4: And the fact that it's in the middle, middle middle 1745 01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:40,200 Speaker 4: of him promoting this movie. 1746 01:20:41,920 --> 01:20:43,840 Speaker 5: That may be unfortunate, but they're not even really getting 1747 01:20:43,840 --> 01:20:46,000 Speaker 5: to talk to him about the movie. No, this is 1748 01:20:46,040 --> 01:20:51,400 Speaker 5: bigger than the movie. Now, yes, anyway, uh, Kevin hart 1749 01:20:51,560 --> 01:20:54,040 Speaker 5: Wright saying, I am done talking about this. 1750 01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:56,519 Speaker 4: Damn I'm over it. 1751 01:20:58,360 --> 01:21:01,040 Speaker 5: Felix said, seeing as I'm around half Rod's age and 1752 01:21:01,080 --> 01:21:04,160 Speaker 5: African living in the UK, the docuseries was really needed 1753 01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:06,280 Speaker 5: for me. It was more thorough than the BBC one, 1754 01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:08,920 Speaker 5: which I also saw. I remember being introduced to the 1755 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:11,519 Speaker 5: whole situation via the Boondocks episode and being confused as 1756 01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:13,680 Speaker 5: to how he wasn't in jail. But no, but not 1757 01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:15,800 Speaker 5: looking more into it because I assume he be locked 1758 01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:19,120 Speaker 5: up eventually. Even with American music being all over African 1759 01:21:19,160 --> 01:21:21,200 Speaker 5: TV and UK TV when I was younger, I don't 1760 01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:24,439 Speaker 5: think I ever really saw the situation come up anywhere 1761 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:28,280 Speaker 5: else from what I remember. Yep, my parents didn't't even 1762 01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:30,360 Speaker 5: really listen to R. Kelly because they had very specific 1763 01:21:30,400 --> 01:21:32,680 Speaker 5: tastes in American music and they didn't like him, so 1764 01:21:32,760 --> 01:21:35,400 Speaker 5: he never came up besides them turning the radio station 1765 01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:37,680 Speaker 5: when his music came on. Everything I saw in the 1766 01:21:37,720 --> 01:21:40,040 Speaker 5: recent docuseries just really put it into perspective for me 1767 01:21:40,080 --> 01:21:42,160 Speaker 5: in a way I wasn't able to grasp as a teenager. 1768 01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:45,599 Speaker 5: Maybe it's because I'm more removed from the situation, which 1769 01:21:45,720 --> 01:21:48,360 Speaker 5: with me not knowing a lot about the old news stories, 1770 01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:51,080 Speaker 5: also because I'm still a bit naive, but I can't 1771 01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:55,160 Speaker 5: imagine a person being this fiendish well also man, and 1772 01:21:55,200 --> 01:21:57,040 Speaker 5: I don't think enough of this said, but a lot 1773 01:21:57,040 --> 01:22:00,679 Speaker 5: of us weren't old enough to really understand and how 1774 01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:04,960 Speaker 5: fucked up that was.

They exploit those people, they exploit those situations. 1799 01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:12,840 Speaker 4: So you know, so to a certain extent, us being teens, teens. 1800 01:23:12,439 --> 01:23:14,760 Speaker 5: And kids at the time, we weren't supposed to understand it, 1801 01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:17,360 Speaker 5: and we didn't attitudes to understand it. Even if our 1802 01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:19,800 Speaker 5: parents would have told us, many of us would have 1803 01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:22,000 Speaker 5: been like, Oh, they just fucking hate They don't know what. 1804 01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:24,760 Speaker 1: They're talking to people talking right, We would have we 1805 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:25,439 Speaker 1: would have did it. 1806 01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:29,200 Speaker 5: This is so societal and it's so old, like Marvin 1807 01:23:29,280 --> 01:23:32,400 Speaker 5: Gaye and all these old singers and shit did it too. 1808 01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:42,720 Speaker 5: So he goes on to say, uh uh uh. Maybe 1809 01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:44,840 Speaker 5: it's because I'm removed from the situation, not knowing about 1810 01:23:44,840 --> 01:23:46,559 Speaker 5: how a lot of the old news stories are. Also 1811 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:48,839 Speaker 5: because I'm still a bit naive. But I can't imagine 1812 01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:50,680 Speaker 5: a person being this fenish. I just can't grasp how 1813 01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:52,800 Speaker 5: sick someone has to be to do the things R. 1814 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:53,360 Speaker 1: Kelly does. 1815 01:23:53,400 --> 01:23:54,960 Speaker 5: Even if he was abused as a kid, how does 1816 01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 5: that translate to you perpetuating that evil on others? Once 1817 01:23:58,280 --> 01:24:00,920 Speaker 5: you become an adult, you have a response ability to 1818 01:24:01,000 --> 01:24:04,800 Speaker 5: work on that shit yourself. But it is scientifically like 1819 01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:06,880 Speaker 5: study that it is a pattern and it has to 1820 01:24:06,960 --> 01:24:09,960 Speaker 5: be broken, and that a lot of times people that 1821 01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:13,960 Speaker 5: abuse others have been abused themselves. But it's still not 1822 01:24:13,960 --> 01:24:15,880 Speaker 5: an excuse. It's just a thing that happened, and it's 1823 01:24:15,920 --> 01:24:20,000 Speaker 5: an inconvenient thing because people see abused then you have empathy, 1824 01:24:20,040 --> 01:24:24,479 Speaker 5: and then it becomes like you worry about defending him 1825 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:27,320 Speaker 5: or mitigating the harm that he's done, or trying to compromise. 1826 01:24:27,600 --> 01:24:28,920 Speaker 4: No, we don't have to compromise. 1827 01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:31,760 Speaker 5: He had something bad happened to him, it doesn't mean 1828 01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 5: you didn't get to do it to other people. 1829 01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:33,639 Speaker 1: Period. 1830 01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:36,439 Speaker 5: It breaks my heart seeing how he was able to 1831 01:24:36,479 --> 01:24:39,040 Speaker 5: get away with ruining so many lives, with people enabling 1832 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:41,600 Speaker 5: him and no one ever being locked up. Between the 1833 01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:43,920 Speaker 5: docu series and all my Fade Black podcast covering and 1834 01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 5: giving more context, I'm glad I'm more informed on the 1835 01:24:46,160 --> 01:24:49,360 Speaker 5: situation now, even with the knowing breakfast club dude in 1836 01:24:49,360 --> 01:24:51,599 Speaker 5: the dock, the message that got to me.

Yeah, 1838 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:56,960 Speaker 5: And that's also the choice we have to make on 1839 01:24:57,040 --> 01:25:00,680 Speaker 5: these podcasts and shit that you listen to. Am I 1840 01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:04,640 Speaker 5: going to talk about this and maybe there's someone that 1841 01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 5: didn't know. Maybe there's some context I can add and 1842 01:25:09,560 --> 01:25:12,439 Speaker 5: we can still elevate this message of like he needs 1843 01:25:12,439 --> 01:25:14,599 Speaker 5: to get the fuck out of here, or I can 1844 01:25:14,640 --> 01:25:16,439 Speaker 5: be like, well, we just want to have a good time. 1845 01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:18,120 Speaker 5: We don't want to talk about this, we don't want to, like, 1846 01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:20,280 Speaker 5: you should have watched it if you wanted to watch 1847 01:25:20,360 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 5: see what they had to say.

That's from rich people, shit, right, And 2024 01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:22,880 Speaker 1: everybody don't want them to be allies, like, yeah, that's 2025 01:32:22,920 --> 01:32:25,960 Speaker 1: the reality of it that you have to understand that people. 2026 01:32:26,200 --> 01:32:28,559 Speaker 1: Some people go, well, I want to help, I support, 2027 01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:31,160 Speaker 1: but I'm not going to be your ally because once 2028 01:32:31,200 --> 01:32:34,240 Speaker 1: you get into the allyship thing, that comes certain expectations 2029 01:32:34,240 --> 01:32:35,840 Speaker 1: that a lot of people go, well, No, once I 2030 01:32:35,920 --> 01:32:38,240 Speaker 1: become an ally, you're going to put certain expectations on 2031 01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:40,120 Speaker 1: me that I may or may not agree with. 2032 01:32:40,439 --> 01:32:43,519 Speaker 5: Also, we've done a really like not we, but the 2033 01:32:43,600 --> 01:32:47,320 Speaker 5: internet to social media has really and pr people have 2034 01:32:47,439 --> 01:32:50,439 Speaker 5: really done this very fucked up thing to allyship, which 2035 01:32:50,479 --> 01:32:53,880 Speaker 5: is when someone fucks up, the answer to it is 2036 01:32:53,880 --> 01:32:56,599 Speaker 5: to become an ally or to be a better ally. 2037 01:32:57,040 --> 01:32:58,519 Speaker 4: And sometimes it's not the answer. 2038 01:32:58,600 --> 01:33:02,200 Speaker 5: The answer should be like stay the fuck away, go away, 2039 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:06,280 Speaker 5: or like you said, we're not fucking with you anymore. 2040 01:33:06,720 --> 01:33:08,760 Speaker 4: But he ain't gonna get canceled or nothing like that. 2041 01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:12,080 Speaker 5: So, like I said, I can see why you know 2042 01:33:12,800 --> 01:33:14,679 Speaker 5: his name's gonna be around. He's one of the biggest 2043 01:33:14,680 --> 01:33:17,240 Speaker 5: stars on the planet. But yeah, they don't have to 2044 01:33:17,240 --> 01:33:18,360 Speaker 5: promote him if they don't want to. 2045 01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:21,160 Speaker 1: Right, And the thing about allineship and being an ally, 2046 01:33:21,479 --> 01:33:24,240 Speaker 1: different people have a different definition of what an ally 2047 01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:27,920 Speaker 1: and an allyship means individually for them, and it varies 2048 01:33:27,960 --> 01:33:31,360 Speaker 1: per person, per person, per organization, per organization. It's kind 2049 01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:34,720 Speaker 1: of all over the place. There's no pamphlet that you 2050 01:33:34,800 --> 01:33:37,280 Speaker 1: get to go with. These are the standard things that 2051 01:33:37,320 --> 01:33:39,479 Speaker 1: you have to do to be allied, to be an ally, 2052 01:33:39,960 --> 01:33:43,240 Speaker 1: and so that boils down to how I was saying before. 2053 01:33:43,320 --> 01:33:45,920 Speaker 1: It varies per person. So that's why some people are like, hey, 2054 01:33:46,200 --> 01:33:48,160 Speaker 1: I give you money, I'll show up. But as far 2055 01:33:48,200 --> 01:33:49,240 Speaker 1: as being an ally, I. 2056 01:33:49,120 --> 01:33:51,960 Speaker 5: Know, yeah, I'm a pause, so we can go to 2057 01:33:51,960 --> 01:33:54,840 Speaker 5: the next session.

I believe in forgiveness, but if you 2067 01:34:19,280 --> 01:34:20,760 Speaker 5: show yourself to be a dick in the present that 2068 01:34:20,840 --> 01:34:23,280 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna deal with you anyway.

I feel you, Michelle. 2071 01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:33,120 Speaker 5: But imagine this, when Roseanne was out here and said 2072 01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:38,240 Speaker 5: that racist shit, Monique was telling us about how. 2073 01:34:38,120 --> 01:34:41,599 Speaker 4: We need to forgive her and move on. It's just jokes. 2074 01:34:41,840 --> 01:34:45,679 Speaker 5: She how much she did for her personally, right, remember that, Well, 2075 01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:49,120 Speaker 5: Monique know Ellen. So it didn't change the narrative for 2076 01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:51,160 Speaker 5: black people to where it became one about like you 2077 01:34:51,200 --> 01:34:51,960 Speaker 5: gotta forgive her. 2078 01:34:52,000 --> 01:34:56,480 Speaker 4: She moving on. Ellen is so big in mainstream it changed. 2079 01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:58,479 Speaker 5: The narrative, which is why you have people that are 2080 01:34:58,520 --> 01:35:01,600 Speaker 5: actively still talking about this dude, because she tried to 2081 01:35:01,640 --> 01:35:05,880 Speaker 5: basically accept an apology on behalf of LGBT people in 2082 01:35:05,960 --> 01:35:09,000 Speaker 5: the world, like, oh no, he can't, he's not homophobic. 2083 01:35:09,120 --> 01:35:10,840 Speaker 5: Ellen loves him and I love him and I ain't 2084 01:35:10,880 --> 01:35:13,280 Speaker 5: know him, and he's not And so it kept the 2085 01:35:13,360 --> 01:35:16,200 Speaker 5: thing going. If Monique would be if it would have 2086 01:35:16,200 --> 01:35:18,760 Speaker 5: been Oprah instead of Monique, it would have kept the 2087 01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:22,839 Speaker 5: shit going with rose d Yes, that's essentially what happened. 2088 01:35:23,040 --> 01:35:26,800 Speaker 5: So that's why I'm saying it's a little you know. 2089 01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:29,400 Speaker 5: To me, it's like a little we have to allow 2090 01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:31,760 Speaker 5: a little bit of space between like him saying the 2091 01:35:31,800 --> 01:35:34,320 Speaker 5: shit and then people no longer fucking with him or 2092 01:35:34,320 --> 01:35:36,960 Speaker 5: talking about him.

I expect this movie 2095 01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:45,920 Speaker 5: to flop, to be honest, but but but we have 2096 01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:47,880 Speaker 5: to allow some time to pass. It's not gonna happen. 2097 01:35:48,000 --> 01:35:49,360 Speaker 5: It's like the chance to rap her. Think it's not 2098 01:35:49,360 --> 01:35:51,759 Speaker 5: gonna happen overnight.

Kate Bailey DC says thanks caring for 2101 01:35:58,600 --> 01:36:00,679 Speaker 5: your comments about what to do with the service dog 2102 01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:03,080 Speaker 5: comes up to you. I try to stay knowledgeable about 2103 01:36:03,120 --> 01:36:06,000 Speaker 5: disability support, but I really had never heard that before 2104 01:36:06,720 --> 01:36:09,000 Speaker 5: that a service dog approaching another person might mean that 2105 01:36:09,040 --> 01:36:12,200 Speaker 5: the service doll's partner needs assistant. I hope I never 2106 01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:13,760 Speaker 5: need to put that knowledge to use. But I really 2107 01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:15,840 Speaker 5: appreciate you educating me on that, Oh. 2108 01:36:15,760 --> 01:36:18,360 Speaker 1: You welcome in the same thing, because once I learned that, 2109 01:36:18,400 --> 01:36:20,639 Speaker 1: I was like, oh word. I did not know that 2110 01:36:20,720 --> 01:36:23,160 Speaker 1: because I'd have been looking at that dog, like what 2111 01:36:23,280 --> 01:36:25,600 Speaker 1: you want. I don't know why you're staring at me. 2112 01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:29,000 Speaker 5: Far says as y'all stated. Kevin will ultimately be fine. 2113 01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:30,639 Speaker 5: I do think it will affect his plans a bit, 2114 01:36:30,680 --> 01:36:33,519 Speaker 5: and that's why he's so mad. Kevin is pretty openly ambitious, 2115 01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:35,600 Speaker 5: and he's been steadily and successfully trying to move up 2116 01:36:35,600 --> 01:36:39,839 Speaker 5: in Hollywood, and this controversy and his response has affected that. Obviously, 2117 01:36:39,880 --> 01:36:42,080 Speaker 5: his core won't care about any of this shit, but 2118 01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:44,280 Speaker 5: it will affect his ability to grow beyond that group. 2119 01:36:44,320 --> 01:36:47,120 Speaker 5: The hilarious part is that this film is not getting 2120 01:36:47,120 --> 01:36:50,439 Speaker 5: great reviews anyway. It was one of Harvey Weinstein's last 2121 01:36:50,439 --> 01:36:53,479 Speaker 5: movies before his shit blew up Damn, although they poured 2122 01:36:53,479 --> 01:36:55,760 Speaker 5: his name off as executive producer. So this movie was 2123 01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:59,000 Speaker 5: kind of doomed to begin with. Kevin just helped it alone. 2124 01:37:00,200 --> 01:37:00,680 Speaker 4: Really dark. 2125 01:37:00,720 --> 01:37:02,479 Speaker 5: Knight says, say what you will, but Kevin has been 2126 01:37:02,520 --> 01:37:04,599 Speaker 5: pretty successful in turning this whole episode and to him 2127 01:37:04,640 --> 01:37:05,280 Speaker 5: being the victim. 2128 01:37:05,840 --> 01:37:06,559 Speaker 4: I felt really. 2129 01:37:06,439 --> 01:37:09,040 Speaker 5: Sorry for Michael Strahan trying to live at those softballs 2130 01:37:09,080 --> 01:37:11,679 Speaker 5: and Kevin wouldn't even hit one and then move on 2131 01:37:11,680 --> 01:37:13,960 Speaker 5: one answer, knock it out. The part move on seemed 2132 01:37:14,000 --> 01:37:16,479 Speaker 5: to be easy enough, but Kevin still mad. So nope, 2133 01:37:16,920 --> 01:37:19,200 Speaker 5: it's so crazy right that interview, that segment ended up 2134 01:37:19,240 --> 01:37:21,960 Speaker 5: being ten minutes of him being like, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, 2135 01:37:21,960 --> 01:37:25,120 Speaker 5: don't want no help. I had an exchange on Twitter 2136 01:37:25,160 --> 01:37:27,040 Speaker 5: this week. I said if anybody could get a message 2137 01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:31,719 Speaker 5: to to Mackenzie Bezos that I said, hey boo, somebody 2138 01:37:31,800 --> 01:37:33,760 Speaker 5: actually had the nerve to try to say to me 2139 01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:36,360 Speaker 5: that she wasn't that hot hot, Like I give a 2140 01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:38,479 Speaker 5: fuck about hot.

It took all of my strength not to respond. 2143 01:37:44,960 --> 01:37:46,559 Speaker 5: And that's why I use a broke. 2144 01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:47,320 Speaker 4: Bitch, peace. 2145 01:37:49,040 --> 01:37:50,519 Speaker 1: Free even he said. 2146 01:37:50,560 --> 01:37:52,679 Speaker 5: So, Jeff Bezos is about to be single. Even though 2147 01:37:52,680 --> 01:37:54,920 Speaker 5: his wife would take half of one hundred and forty billions, 2148 01:37:55,080 --> 01:37:56,599 Speaker 5: he still has seventy billion dollars. 2149 01:37:56,640 --> 01:37:58,760 Speaker 4: So my question is does he likes sisters asking for 2150 01:37:58,800 --> 01:38:00,639 Speaker 4: a friend?

And the 2622 02:00:50,440 --> 02:00:52,920 Speaker 5: And it's also because the main things I want to 2623 02:00:52,960 --> 02:00:56,320 Speaker 5: remember when I do a movie review is that one, 2624 02:00:56,360 --> 02:00:58,320 Speaker 5: I'm so fortunate and happy to be able to just 2625 02:00:58,360 --> 02:01:02,280 Speaker 5: review movies. Yes, like as a person that gets paid 2626 02:01:02,360 --> 02:01:04,560 Speaker 5: as part of an organization that votes and all that. 2627 02:01:05,320 --> 02:01:09,080 Speaker 5: This is something I really, you know, wanted there to 2628 02:01:09,160 --> 02:01:10,200 Speaker 5: be more people. 2629 02:01:09,920 --> 02:01:11,800 Speaker 1: Like me who reviewed movies that were you. 2630 02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:15,280 Speaker 5: Know, black, that were fans, that were not just gonna 2631 02:01:15,280 --> 02:01:18,080 Speaker 5: be pretentious and only give the same six indie movies 2632 02:01:18,080 --> 02:01:21,760 Speaker 5: credit every year. You know, most people's review shows turn 2633 02:01:21,800 --> 02:01:23,960 Speaker 5: into that, you know, very boring. 2634 02:01:24,240 --> 02:01:24,880 Speaker 4: Yeah people. 2635 02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:27,720 Speaker 5: When I do occasionally listen, even to my friends, I'm 2636 02:01:27,720 --> 02:01:31,080 Speaker 5: always like, damn, this this is no different than what 2637 02:01:31,280 --> 02:01:34,880 Speaker 5: white independent people have been doing with their reviews and 2638 02:01:34,920 --> 02:01:37,240 Speaker 5: what you know, It's like we're just imitating what they 2639 02:01:37,280 --> 02:01:37,839 Speaker 5: did already. 2640 02:01:37,840 --> 02:01:39,320 Speaker 4: I don't want to do that. I'm not interested in 2641 02:01:39,360 --> 02:01:43,440 Speaker 4: that shit. So I do think that. 2642 02:01:43,480 --> 02:01:46,120 Speaker 5: And it's not to take credit away from the traditional 2643 02:01:46,200 --> 02:01:48,280 Speaker 5: type of movie. Some of those are very good, but 2644 02:01:48,720 --> 02:01:50,520 Speaker 5: in general, it's like I should be able to say 2645 02:01:50,520 --> 02:01:53,000 Speaker 5: Star Wars was good and I enjoyed it as much 2646 02:01:53,000 --> 02:01:55,080 Speaker 5: as I enjoyed Lola Land without it being like a 2647 02:01:55,120 --> 02:01:58,520 Speaker 5: fucking shock and a surprise. The other thing I'd like 2648 02:01:58,560 --> 02:02:02,080 Speaker 5: to remember when I do reviews is to typically make 2649 02:02:02,240 --> 02:02:05,680 Speaker 5: the score the tone of the review. And this is 2650 02:02:05,680 --> 02:02:07,680 Speaker 5: probably the hardest thing when you reviewing the movie. It's 2651 02:02:07,680 --> 02:02:10,959 Speaker 5: probably the hardest thing for most people, and most people. 2652 02:02:10,800 --> 02:02:11,560 Speaker 1: Don't do it. 2653 02:02:12,000 --> 02:02:14,360 Speaker 5: They'll they'll they'll shit on the movie for forty minutes 2654 02:02:14,360 --> 02:02:16,000 Speaker 5: and then go, oh, it's a three out of five. 2655 02:02:17,320 --> 02:02:18,960 Speaker 5: That's not a three out of five. If you shoot 2656 02:02:19,000 --> 02:02:22,920 Speaker 5: on something for forty minutes, that's that's bad. That's a zero, 2657 02:02:23,040 --> 02:02:25,840 Speaker 5: that's a one. That's this is a bad movie. And 2658 02:02:25,880 --> 02:02:28,000 Speaker 5: then so I'm like, I want my reviews to feel 2659 02:02:28,040 --> 02:02:30,440 Speaker 5: like the score. So most of our reviews sound kind 2660 02:02:30,440 --> 02:02:34,480 Speaker 5: of in the middle or kind of nice, because we 2661 02:02:34,720 --> 02:02:37,520 Speaker 5: most movies at this point are not really shit fest. 2662 02:02:37,520 --> 02:02:40,560 Speaker 5: They're like three out of five, four out of five. 2663 02:02:41,360 --> 02:02:43,200 Speaker 5: You know, every once in a while, you really do 2664 02:02:43,320 --> 02:02:44,240 Speaker 5: watch a bad. 2665 02:02:44,040 --> 02:02:46,480 Speaker 1: Movie and you get it a two or one. Yeah, 2666 02:02:46,600 --> 02:02:47,280 Speaker 1: those are the ones. 2667 02:02:47,400 --> 02:02:49,200 Speaker 5: I'm like, all right, I'm shitting on this movie. I 2668 02:02:49,520 --> 02:02:51,680 Speaker 5: really thought about it everywhere I could, and it was bad. 2669 02:02:51,840 --> 02:02:54,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, And a lot of times, most of the movies 2670 02:02:54,120 --> 02:02:56,160 Speaker 1: we watch, we actually want to see them, which is 2671 02:02:56,200 --> 02:02:58,400 Speaker 1: completely differ and being forced to see them. 2672 02:02:58,600 --> 02:03:02,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, but even then, I like, even yeah, most of 2673 02:03:02,200 --> 02:03:04,200 Speaker 5: most people are watching what they want to watch anyway. 2674 02:03:04,320 --> 02:03:07,120 Speaker 5: So yeah, anyway, I'm glad that you enjoy our reviews. 2675 02:03:07,160 --> 02:03:09,600 Speaker 5: I'm glad they sound different. That's the really most important 2676 02:03:09,640 --> 02:03:11,880 Speaker 5: thing is I just don't want to do retreads. 2677 02:03:11,920 --> 02:03:13,160 Speaker 1: A lot of people's reviews. 2678 02:03:12,960 --> 02:03:16,080 Speaker 5: Sound the same, just a retrad of somebody else's review 2679 02:03:16,080 --> 02:03:18,360 Speaker 5: of the shit. It's like I could have fucking listened 2680 02:03:18,400 --> 02:03:20,440 Speaker 5: to this somewhere else. And like I said, the one 2681 02:03:20,480 --> 02:03:22,440 Speaker 5: of the reasons I don't really like to read other. 2682 02:03:22,280 --> 02:03:25,200 Speaker 4: People's reviews is because then I spend my review responding 2683 02:03:25,240 --> 02:03:26,440 Speaker 4: to their review. That's crazy. 2684 02:03:27,040 --> 02:03:29,000 Speaker 5: You came from my opinion, not what I thought of 2685 02:03:29,000 --> 02:03:31,320 Speaker 5: their opinion. I don't give a fuck. So this nigga 2686 02:03:31,320 --> 02:03:33,320 Speaker 5: didn't like Star Wars. Now I gotta take him the task. 2687 02:03:33,320 --> 02:03:35,200 Speaker 5: I can't eiven a fuck about that, nigga.

He was twenty eight at the time, 2713 02:04:56,040 --> 02:04:57,640 Speaker 5: and I remember it like it was yesterday. I thought 2714 02:04:57,680 --> 02:04:59,720 Speaker 5: it was creepy then, but I'm not going to revise 2715 02:05:00,000 --> 02:05:02,160 Speaker 5: the story of society. We have grandparents and aunts and 2716 02:05:02,240 --> 02:05:04,440 Speaker 5: uncles that where the men started dating a girl at 2717 02:05:04,440 --> 02:05:06,320 Speaker 5: fifteen and he was up with was a thirty.

I knew every word of R 2722 02:05:16,600 --> 02:05:18,440 Speaker 5: and B in the eighties and nineties and arts at 2723 02:05:18,440 --> 02:05:21,760 Speaker 5: twenty teens. But despite that, I was a fan of 2724 02:05:21,800 --> 02:05:24,920 Speaker 5: many of his songs. His remixes were legendary before Diddy, 2725 02:05:25,440 --> 02:05:28,680 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Ignition remix and that shit was inoscapable. I 2726 02:05:28,720 --> 02:05:31,720 Speaker 5: remember people saying, why the fuck is the news talking 2727 02:05:31,720 --> 02:05:33,800 Speaker 5: about how this dude is canceled and then playing the 2728 02:05:33,840 --> 02:05:35,960 Speaker 5: song in the background, because that's what's making people go 2729 02:05:36,040 --> 02:05:39,879 Speaker 5: stream it.

At eighteen, 2732 02:05:45,680 --> 02:05:48,400 Speaker 5: I knew that this was creepy and wrong, and that historically 2733 02:05:48,400 --> 02:05:50,280 Speaker 5: I also knew that it was accepted. I had a 2734 02:05:50,320 --> 02:05:52,440 Speaker 5: neighbor whose daughter got pregnant by her stepdad. 2735 02:05:52,760 --> 02:05:53,800 Speaker 1: She was called. 2736 02:05:53,520 --> 02:05:55,640 Speaker 5: Fast and he went to jail, but when he got out, 2737 02:05:55,840 --> 02:05:58,760 Speaker 5: he was actually allowed to father his daughter, the victim's sister, 2738 02:05:59,120 --> 02:06:01,840 Speaker 5: and the child he had father with the victim twelve 2739 02:06:01,920 --> 02:06:05,240 Speaker 5: she was twelve. She was ruined and stigmatized though he 2740 02:06:05,320 --> 02:06:07,680 Speaker 5: went to jail. I knew a family where the matriarch 2741 02:06:07,720 --> 02:06:10,040 Speaker 5: knew her husband was touching the little girl children in 2742 02:06:10,040 --> 02:06:13,000 Speaker 5: the family. He was just never around them unsupervised, but 2743 02:06:13,080 --> 02:06:16,360 Speaker 5: otherwise never held accountable. I remember my initial outrage. I 2744 02:06:16,400 --> 02:06:19,920 Speaker 5: also remember looking around, like, ain't nobody else man? This 2745 02:06:19,960 --> 02:06:23,640 Speaker 5: was before Leah came back, but I back out under 2746 02:06:23,680 --> 02:06:27,320 Speaker 5: MISSI and Timberland, says pie Piper.
