But I think we 110 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 14: could do better. It's so much, it's so much policies 111 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 14: that could be put into place, especially for black women, 112 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 14: and the maternal rate is so high, the death maternal. 113 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 13: Rate is so high. 114 00:03:58,400 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 14: Yes, I just wanted to throw that out here. 115 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: See, I see both sides because I understand you want 116 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: to bond with the kids, and that's that's very especially 117 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: the first year. It's very well needed. But also i'm 118 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: you know, from a workplace. I mean, they got to 119 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: pay somebody. They can't continue to pay you for a 120 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: full year and not have somebody feel that position, you know, 121 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: So I see both sides, you know. Or maybe if 122 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 1: you're able to allow to work at home where that 123 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 1: way you can still spend time with your baby at 124 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: home and you can do a little work at home, 125 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: you know. 126 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 13: Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's some position where you can't 127 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 13: stay at home. My position, you can't do that. 128 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 14: I need to be in the office. 129 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 13: But it's it's not even actually called maternity lead. 130 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 14: It's called excellently like family medical administrative lead. So if 131 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 14: that's the case, I think like something could figure out. 132 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 12: You know. 133 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: All right, Well, enjoy that baby, love that baby.

It was mostly positive. 276 00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 15: There was somebody in my family who took issue with it, 277 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 15: and that created some tension, and the attention is still there, unfortunately, 278 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 15: and so you know, I'm still processing that part. 279 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 1: They did not have a conversation before. 280 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 15: We did have a conversation before, but I just didn't 281 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 15: think how they reacted to it would be the way 282 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 15: they reacted. And they took it to Facebook as opposed 283 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 15: to taking it to me. Yeah, and then they aired 284 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 15: out stuff that was not even in the book, and 285 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 15: it was like. 286 00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 5: Why and probably stuff that wasn't true. 287 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,880 Speaker 15: Yeah, some of it was definitely I looked at very skeptically, 288 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 15: and it wasn't about me. It was it was about 289 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,640 Speaker 15: my mom, to be candid, and so I was not 290 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 15: happy that that was the course of action that they chose, 291 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 15: and so it caused a fracture in our relationship. 292 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 5: Of My first book was the same thing, and family was, oh, 293 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 5: I can't write a book, but I can go to Facebook, 294 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 5: right exactly. 295 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 15: You know, And especially it's not like this person couldn't 296 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 15: have called me like they could have and we could 297 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 15: have had a conversation about it. And I guess the 298 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 15: surprising part they didn't take issue with what was written 299 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 15: as in terms of like it not being true. The 300 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 15: issue was when we finally did have that discussion, was 301 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:44,320 Speaker 15: that they weren't in it enough. 302 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: So that really so they wanted side out there. 303 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 5: Yeah. 304 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 15: Oh, they just felt like they should have been you know, 305 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 15: that their role in my life should have been more 306 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 15: highlighted or more And I thought I did a pretty 307 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,079 Speaker 15: good job of it as it was, but apparently it 308 00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 15: was not on part with this person. 309 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 4: And so yeah, with they. 310 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,439 Speaker 5: Roll in your life as big as they actually thought. 311 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 15: It was, well, I mean, I guess if you want 312 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 15: me to say what it is, because I see you're 313 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 15: getting to But it was my father. 314 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 4: Who had an issue. Oh yeah, that was my father 315 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 4: had an issue. 316 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 15: With some of the things that were in the book, 317 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 15: not necessarily because they were untrue, but he felt like 318 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 15: he should have been more prominently featured in the book. 319 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 4: That was what I got from it, and so I 320 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 4: it wasn't. 321 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 15: It was a very difficult conversation to have, and so 322 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 15: those conversations have been somewhat ongoing, and I told him 323 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 15: I needed to kind of press pause because I need 324 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 15: to process what you said to me. 325 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 4: Because I took a lot of issue with it. 326 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 5: Now do you think, what do you think a second 327 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 5: Jamel Hill book would be about? 328 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,800 Speaker 15: Well, there will be another Jamael Hill book, and it 329 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 15: is much like this memoir of something I didn't expect 330 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 15: to write. 331 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 4: But the second book will be a children's book. 332 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 15: Oh yeah, So I'm writing a children's book and it 333 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 15: will cover some parts of Uphill, like just kind of 334 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 15: you know, how I was it able to overcome some 335 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 15: adversity and some of the more positive career stuff like, 336 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 15: some of that will be part of it. But generally speaking, 337 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,079 Speaker 15: it will be sort of like my love letter to 338 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 15: a lot of the women whose stories haven't been told, 339 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 15: a lot of the women who I've admired, and so 340 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 15: it'll I'm really looking forward to. 341 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 4: I've never written. 342 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 15: Before a children's audience before, so this will be quite 343 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,959 Speaker 15: a challenge. It'll be the opposite almost from a memoir, 344 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 15: because you're pouring everything into this book, and you know, 345 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,080 Speaker 15: it's like two hundred and fifty three hundred pages and 346 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 15: of children's book. You have to be quite concise, and 347 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 15: you have to make sure that they understand the general 348 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 15: themes that. 349 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: You're trying to be about. 350 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 15: Yet yeah, I mean it, it'll be a combination of 351 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 15: my story and the stories of women whose stories need 352 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 15: to be told. And you know women I've admired. So yeah, 353 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 15: some of them famous, some of them not as famous 354 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 15: as others. I mean, I'm trying to like really unearthed 355 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 15: and tell the stories of some women who probably didn't 356 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 15: get the flowers that they deserved. 357 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,320 Speaker 5: Gotcha. Yeah, we just had an off set up here 358 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 5: and you had some words about his and if you 359 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 5: would hyping out something off the podcaster and you said, 360 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 5: you feel like this is a racing real hip hop journalism. 361 00:12:59,240 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 5: Yeah I do. 362 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 15: I mean, listen, I admit I'm spoiled. It's like when 363 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 15: when hip hop was really coming into his own and growing. 364 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 15: You know, that's when you had Vibe, you had Kevin 365 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 15: Powell and Dreamampton and Danielle Smith, and there was like 366 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 15: a real hip hop journalism sort of movement there that 367 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,439 Speaker 15: covered the culture, that cover theists, artists tried to tell 368 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 15: the full three sixty dimensions of their stories. And as 369 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 15: you know, you know, mainstream media wasn't messing with hip 370 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 15: hop like that. They weren't telling these stories. And so 371 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 15: now it's just interesting to me the platforms they wind 372 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 15: up on, Like look, at sexy Red, like why was 373 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 15: she on that podcast? But what you know with THEO 374 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 15: like that, does that seem like the type of podcast 375 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 15: that you would expect sexy Red to be on. 376 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 4: Probably not, I don't know. 377 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,800 Speaker 5: Interesting Mark on the one day one time and he 378 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 5: was talking, he was talking about how sexy that's. 379 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: What Charlamage cares about. Fact, that's all. 380 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 5: Like a whole five. 381 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: Not blushing it but I think you were. 382 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 5: A beautiful man. He was like, I'm like living, I'm blushing. 383 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 5: That compliment is a compliment. I was. 384 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 4: I was like, wow, not blessing. 385 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: He's so silly to take him on the. 386 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 5: Date lady features, I promise you that's what you were saying. 387 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 5: He remembers every live I do. I do, but I don't. 388 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 5: I don't know what the old angles is what. 389 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 15: I'm yeah, I mean he's had an eclectic group of guests, 390 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 15: so I guess maybe from that standpoint, you could say 391 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 15: that she fits. But it's just I when I watched 392 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 15: that interaction and I get it. I know what her 393 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 15: stick is a lot of it. As many people say, 394 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 15: like she clearly borrowed some of this from Funny Marco, 395 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 15: who actually think does it pretty well, yeah, like he 396 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 15: he has, he's got a good thing going and her 397 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 15: I guess looking at her rise, it was kind of 398 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 15: curious to me, like her podcast has not been existing 399 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 15: enough for that long. I think the way the story 400 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 15: was told was like Drake saw her on TikTok. I 401 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 15: think ye on TikTok, but she was with Funny Marco. 402 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 15: I think that's the interview that he saw. That's at 403 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 15: least that's sort of what's been reported and out there, 404 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 15: and then he just up and decided, you know, hey, 405 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 15: I'm just going this random podcast, which he has every 406 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 15: right to do. But when I look about who are 407 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,560 Speaker 15: the caretakers of hip hop, the caretakers of how this 408 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 15: culture is covered, it's us, you know, for the most part. 409 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 15: That's not to say the OFFSET can't do interviews with 410 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 15: people outside the culture, but I notice how those interviews 411 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 15: are received and for that matter, how they're treated on 412 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 15: those interviews, and it makes me concerned overall. Honestly, I 413 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 15: know a lot a ton of black journalists who could 414 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 15: go who could use that kind of boost, and to me, 415 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 15: especially given we see the danger of when our stories 416 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 15: aren't told and they're trying to erase our stories in 417 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 15: real time. I would like to see artists like him, 418 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 15: artists like Drake, other Black artists in general, be more 419 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 15: intentional about the type of media that they try to 420 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 15: do right, Like that's why Breakfast Club has the status 421 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 15: and the stature that it does, because this is a 422 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 15: place that has been established for the culture. 423 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 4: And it would be nice. 424 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 15: If some of these artists understood that there's something larger 425 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 15: at play than just going viral. 426 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: I will on't go anywhere. We got more with Jamil Hill. 427 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: It's the Breakfast logan morning, the Breakfast Club. 428 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 4: Everybody's DJ n V. 429 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: Charlamagne, the guy we are the Breakfast Club was still 430 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 1: kicking it.

Yeah, this is depressing. Let's 467 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 5: go back to one one of the topics. Okay, THEO 468 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 5: Vaughn and Sexy Red all right talking, We talked about 469 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 5: it up a couple of times. What about that interview 470 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 5: is so upsetting, Like there's gonna need to beat up 471 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 5: on her Sexy Red. 472 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean, I don't think that anybody was rushing 473 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 15: to hear, you know, what her political texts were. But 474 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 15: the problem with is, like the misinformation. It wasn't that 475 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 15: she gave her political take. She's allowed to give her 476 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 15: political tape. She could have said I supported Trump and 477 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 15: listed off the reasons that actually made a little bit 478 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 15: more sense. Yeah, she could have said that, because it's 479 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 15: her right to have that opinion. But it's the misinformation 480 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 15: that is what I see is to be more dangerous 481 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 15: when you have that kind of platform, because like it 482 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 15: or not, people aren't going to listen to her. And 483 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 15: even though you know she's talked about they love Trump 484 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 15: in the hood. I was like, well, Poles don't really 485 00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 15: show that, but that's okay, go ahead, go off, And 486 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 15: so I took the opportunity to your point, I saw 487 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 15: it as a teachable moment because, as you said, there 488 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 15: are some people who do say the same things. Let's 489 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 15: deal with what's being said. Even though Donald Trump's name 490 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 15: were on that stimulus tech, he did not the money 491 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 15: did not come from it me. It didn't come right 492 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 15: out of his bank account. It was passed by congress people. 493 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 15: And that's part of the general collective ignorance that we have. 494 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 15: A lot of us don't know how government works. There's 495 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,719 Speaker 15: no shame in that because it is a complicated system. 496 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 15: But we have to understand how legislation has passed, how 497 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 15: policy are made, knowing the right person to be mad at, 498 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 15: because a lot of the things that people are mad at, 499 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 15: you know, inflation, other things. 500 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 4: I was like, the president doesn't have a whole lot. 501 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,719 Speaker 15: To do with that, and we're in a huge age 502 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,959 Speaker 15: of corporate greed like we've never seen before. And I 503 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 15: wish that we had a better handle on who to blame, 504 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 15: because then that would help us better strategize. 505 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 5: But you know what, I tell the Tellorhood, I'll just 506 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 5: be like Biden gave out Stemmys too. 507 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,159 Speaker 4: But that was brilliant though. I was like, I mean, 508 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 4: no president in the history has ever done that. He's like, no, no, no, no. 509 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 4: The checks get held up because he was like, no, no, 510 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 4: I'm gonna need that. 511 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:37,440 Speaker 16: Donald J. 512 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 5: Trump on it because he knew, he knew the lasting 513 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 5: impact that would have. But you're right, Biden Trump signed 514 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 5: signed it in twice. Yeah, signed it in once. Biden 515 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 5: gave out Stemmys two. It is. That's the hook. Yeah, 516 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,719 Speaker 5: that's how you get the sexony reds as all. 517 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 4: It isn't. 518 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 15: And unfortunately the other part of it is that the 519 00:19:55,560 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 15: amount of media machinery behind the right wing there's no 520 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:04,360 Speaker 15: democratic equivalent. I hope somebody in her camp or somebody 521 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,719 Speaker 15: period pulled her aside and said, hey, here are the issues. 522 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 15: If you're gonna speak about these, and if you're gonna 523 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 15: take a pro tramp position, at least if you're gonna 524 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 15: take one, take one that is a little more informative 525 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 15: than the one that know your facts, know your facts. 526 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 5: And people just like to be entertained nowadays.

I'm not calling her a flat out racist, 545 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 15: but what I will say is that she's very comfortable 546 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 15: using racist dog whistles to further and advance her political position. 547 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:05,000 Speaker 5: I feel like the biggest opposition Vice President Harris is 548 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 5: going to face is going to come from in her 549 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 5: own party.

The chaos 864 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 5: is normal? 865 00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you know. Just in my ernie, I've 866 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 2: just been discovering that you kind of have to just 867 00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 2: rise above it, right, because the world is going to 868 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 2: be what it's going to be, right. I actually think 869 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,839 Speaker 2: that the world is a university, you know, to teach 870 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 2: us how to transcend it. Yeah, and so yeah, you 871 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 2: just you got to make peace with what this world 872 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,800 Speaker 2: is about. But I don't think that this place is 873 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,320 Speaker 2: our sanctuary. I actually think you know, snding it and 874 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 2: going into more of the spiritual spiritual places, you know, 875 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 2: and just kind of understanding living your life from there 876 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 2: within the world. I mean, that's what they say, you know, 877 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 2: be in it, but not of it. 878 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: You ever get tired of it? Though, because you've been 879 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: on this tour for a while, and you're very big 880 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: on energy and vibrations, and sometimes I'm sure the energy 881 00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 1: and vibrations have been all over the place, but it 882 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:52,359 Speaker 1: seems like you've been on tour, yeah, for a long time. 883 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,319 Speaker 1: You ever get tired of it? Like now, enough's enough? 884 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 7: Now. 885 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 2: I think that if I put myself in that frame 886 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 2: of mind and I just bring myself a level of discomfort, 887 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 2: that's not necessary, right, You just go it is what 888 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 2: it is. So how are you going to step up 889 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 2: to the moment and that's it, you know, that's just 890 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,919 Speaker 2: what it is. And so that's where I find my piece. 891 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,439 Speaker 5: Since the release of this book, what is your Ego? 892 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 5: Been telling you? 893 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 2: My ego has been telling me to let go because 894 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 2: it takes a lot of courage to sin in your truth. 895 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:30,839 Speaker 2: It takes a lot of courage. It takes a lot 896 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,800 Speaker 2: of courage to be happy. When you're walking through the 897 00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 2: world and you're dismantling ideas, you know, you kind of 898 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 2: have to and that dismantle you just kind of have 899 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: to let go of everything that you thought you were, 900 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 2: everything that you're trying to be, and just flow right, 901 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 2: just let whatever is presenting itself, just kind of be 902 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 2: what it is. But you definitely gotta let go. So 903 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,800 Speaker 2: it's it's been a real test in regards to trust. 904 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 2: You know, I just can't trust the ego in that 905 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 2: way anymore. But you know, that's a process. So as 906 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:17,960 Speaker 2: I'm dismassing, so you go from one ego state to 907 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 2: the next, right, so it just gets it just gets uh, 908 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,800 Speaker 2: it just gets smaller, I guess, you know, but the 909 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 2: ego is always going to be that. So you know, 910 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: you just kind of learn how to make friends with 911 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 2: your ego and have it work for you in a 912 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 2: different way, for different purpose. 913 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 10: Right. 914 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:39,759 Speaker 2: So that's what I'm working with right now. 915 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: Has this truth helped your relationship with friends, family, and 916 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: even your marriage? Has this truth and all the things 917 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,240 Speaker 1: that came out or did it make things worse? 918 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 19: Oh? 919 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 2: No, See I didn't.

So I had to make sure 923 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 2: that my inner circle was tight, right, so that we 924 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 2: could walk this together hand in hand. 925 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 10: Right. 926 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 2: So it's actually, you know, specifically for Will and I, 927 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 2: it's definitely brought us closer. It's so funny how crisis 928 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 2: will do. 929 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 4: That, you know what I mean? 930 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I'm saying.

When 1013 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:02,759 Speaker 1: did you realize and say, I need to fix this 1014 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: because this isn't right with me? What was that moment? 1015 00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 2: I would say that I got slammed up against a wall, 1016 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:15,720 Speaker 2: probably when I was really confronted with some really heavy 1017 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 2: suicidal thoughts, when I was looking for cliffs to drive over, 1018 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,880 Speaker 2: you know, so that my suicide would look like an 1019 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,239 Speaker 2: accident so my kids wouldn't think that I committed suicide. 1020 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 2: I did a plant medicine journey ayahuasca. 1021 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 5: I can't wait. 1022 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 2: Let me know when I got you and that that 1023 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,960 Speaker 2: was a real awakening for me, you know, when I 1024 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 2: really had to be confronted with my own shadow, my 1025 00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 2: own self hatred, and it was so strong and it 1026 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 2: was so scary. I was like, whoa, I didn't need 1027 00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 2: I thought it was I didn't even want to be 1028 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 2: with that, and I'm like asking somebody else to contend 1029 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 2: with that. That was the first moment that I realized, oh, Jada, 1030 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 2: you you got some stuff. 1031 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 1: To deal with. And what got you to that point? 1032 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 1: Because most people would look on the outside and be like, 1033 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: you know, she's rich, she's a movie star, she's dating 1034 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,800 Speaker 1: another movie star, she has beautiful kids, your mom is 1035 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:17,279 Speaker 1: still there. Like it looks like to the outside, the 1036 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: life is perfect. So what in that perfect life on 1037 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 1: the outside made you feel imperfect or made you not 1038 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 1: feel like this is what I want. 1039 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 2: It was like dealing with the foundational wounds, right. I 1040 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,520 Speaker 2: hadn't done, I hadn't doubled. And that's what we most 1041 00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 2: of us don't even know what our foundational wounds are. 1042 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,800 Speaker 2: We don't even know we're foundationally wounded. Right, And so 1043 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 2: it's started a childhood. You know, you got two parents 1044 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:47,719 Speaker 2: who are addicts and you're not the priority, right, and 1045 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:52,319 Speaker 2: then just the levels and just the trauma that gets 1046 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:57,320 Speaker 2: built upon what that environment it's like, right, And I 1047 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:03,320 Speaker 2: thought that making it would heal it all. You know, 1048 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 2: success takes care of everything right, and then it was like, Okay, 1049 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 2: made it to Hollywood, that's not it. And then I 1050 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,400 Speaker 2: met this fantastic guy and I was on this world 1051 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:17,880 Speaker 2: wind of romance with Will, and I was like, he's 1052 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:21,320 Speaker 2: gonna fix it. You know what I'm saying. He's gonna 1053 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:26,240 Speaker 2: He is the Knight and shining armor, He's the Savior Prince. 1054 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 2: He's gonna fix it. So it went from one false 1055 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 2: belief to the next. And I talk about trying to 1056 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 2: check all the boxes. It's like, checked all boxes, what's left, right, 1057 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,879 Speaker 2: and then having to realize, oh man, oh yeah, you're 1058 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 2: not dealing with your stuff. That's what's left. So it 1059 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 2: just goes to show that we can have all of 1060 00:44:48,719 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 2: these exterior things, you know, but that's not the thing 1061 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 2: that's gonna heal the soul. 1062 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 7: You know. 1063 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 5: It's interesting because you know when we used to watch 1064 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 5: her at table talk, people would be like, who is it, 1065 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:03,879 Speaker 5: Jada Pinket take off the drug dealer, Jada drug dealer energy. 1066 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,719 Speaker 5: You know, I never, I never When I when I 1067 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 5: read that in the book, I was like, Jay the 1068 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:10,319 Speaker 5: Pinkett Smith was in the streets like that. But when 1069 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 5: you walked in, I'm like, oh, I see it, I 1070 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 5: see a little king. 1071 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,880 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, just trying to be comfortable. 1072 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:25,640 Speaker 4: Sorry about that. 1073 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,279 Speaker 5: But when people used to watch The Red Table Talk, 1074 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 5: they be like, why who Why is Jada Pinkett Smith 1075 00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 5: an expert and anything? But in the book you refer 1076 00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:36,319 Speaker 5: to yourself as you said, you're a pseudo pseudo guru. Yeah, 1077 00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:39,279 Speaker 5: you said. It's in the Feeling the Range chapter that 1078 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 5: you seem to often set yourself up to fall off 1079 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 5: the edge of high and mighty them. You admit at 1080 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 5: the time you didn't know, like why talk to yourself 1081 00:45:47,239 --> 00:45:47,400 Speaker 5: like that? 1082 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 2: Well, because it's the truth, you know. And I think 1083 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 2: that when we're really on that game of healing, like 1084 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 2: the person that you got to be the most honest 1085 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 2: with is yourself. And a lot of times that could 1086 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 2: be that could be the most difficult when you really 1087 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 2: got to look at yourself and realize, you know, you 1088 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:14,839 Speaker 2: thought you were something and now you realize that you ain't, 1089 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 2: you know, And so yeah, you just got to learn 1090 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 2: how to be deeply honest with yourself. And as I 1091 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:23,840 Speaker 2: talk to myself that way, I can also hug myself 1092 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 2: in saying that. 1093 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: You know, now you talk about love so much, and 1094 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 1: you talk about how you felt at one time you 1095 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 1: are against marriage, right? Is that because you've seen your 1096 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,919 Speaker 1: parents in their relationship? What changed your mind? 1097 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:39,479 Speaker 18: Yeah? 1098 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 2: I think that was really Like I got to see 1099 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:46,839 Speaker 2: my grandparents who both said to grandparents had a really 1100 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:51,640 Speaker 2: long lasting marriage. But I wasn't quite sure that it 1101 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 2: was the pinnacle of happiness. And so you know, when 1102 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,600 Speaker 2: you're young, you're a free spirit, and I'm just like, no, 1103 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 2: I can do this different because I I want to 1104 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,840 Speaker 2: be happy.

And it's 1121 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:14,320 Speaker 2: not to say that you're not gonna go through some 1122 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 2: unholy stuff, right, But when two people are committed and 1123 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 2: just refuse to quit, what you can learn about yourself, 1124 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 2: about your partner, and about love in general. You can't 1125 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,959 Speaker 2: really learn by going from one relationship to the next 1126 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 2: looking for the honeymoon stage over and over again, right, 1127 00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:43,840 Speaker 2: specifically if you're interested in learning about unconditional love, you know. 1128 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 2: And so I was like, oh, snap, this is what 1129 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:49,240 Speaker 2: it's about. 1130 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: You know, years ago, Like what was that moment three 1131 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 1: years ago? 1132 00:48:54,840 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 2: I would probably say, when we'll going through through the 1133 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:08,239 Speaker 2: process of emancipation.

We are to Breakfast Club. 1151 00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,840 Speaker 1: We're still kicking it with Jada Pinkett Smith, Charlomagne. 1152 00:50:10,320 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 5: You think, up until the point of three years ago, 1153 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 5: do you think y'all had had just more of a 1154 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:15,879 Speaker 5: trauma bond. 1155 00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 2: I would say yes and no. I would say we 1156 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:23,560 Speaker 2: had a trauma bond, and then underneath of it there 1157 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:29,280 Speaker 2: was this real deep friendship, this spiritual bond too, because 1158 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 2: you can start breaking through your trauma and start talking 1159 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 2: through your trauma. And if it's just a trauma bond, 1160 00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 2: once you start to heal and you start going your 1161 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 2: separate ways, it's done. If it's just a trauma bond, right, 1162 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:50,120 Speaker 2: But when you can feel that that spiritual bind once 1163 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 2: you're doing the healing, and that spiritual bind is just 1164 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 2: yoking you tighter, then you know it's something else, you know, 1165 00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 2: and you really have to have the discernment to know 1166 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 2: the difference, you know what I'm saying, because sometimes you 1167 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 2: do just have a trauma bomb with somebody and sometimes 1168 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,239 Speaker 2: you just got to get away, you know what I'm saying. 1169 00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 2: And so you you you gotta really like sit with 1170 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 2: yourself and have the discernment to know the difference. 1171 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 5: Now that's real, because sometimes you heal so much you 1172 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,240 Speaker 5: be like, man, you look around like, oh, like nobody exactly. 1173 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 2: That's real talking, yeah, straight out, because that's what we do. 1174 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:27,200 Speaker 5: You know. 1175 00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,719 Speaker 2: It's like that. And that's part of it too, you know, 1176 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 2: And that's part of why we have to have the 1177 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 2: courage because innately, you know, once you start healing, a 1178 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 2: whole lot is gonna change. 1179 00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:41,720 Speaker 1: You know, with the Oscar situation, did that save your marriage? 1180 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 1: And the reason I asked that is, you know, I've 1181 00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 1: been married twenty two years, Charlamae's been married a long time. 1182 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:49,600 Speaker 1: But your wife will always be mad at you, right, 1183 00:51:50,239 --> 00:51:52,080 Speaker 1: but you can't be mad at him. I could be 1184 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:56,399 Speaker 1: mad at him him down. Yeah, So did that save 1185 00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:57,760 Speaker 1: your marriage? 1186 00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 2: I would say what it definitely did is that it 1187 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:06,960 Speaker 2: accelerated what I think was already in the process. It 1188 00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:10,480 Speaker 2: was in that moment that I knew. I was like, 1189 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 2: oh no, no, no, Na, we gonna do this together. 1190 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:19,800 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be by your side, and I know that 1191 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:24,400 Speaker 2: I'll never I'll never leave your side, right Because it's 1192 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 2: funny because an emotional crisis, I didn't blink. 1193 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:28,920 Speaker 4: I didn't blink. 1194 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 2: And that's when I knew deep down inside. 1195 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 20: I'm like, you know what I'm saying. It's like, and 1196 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 20: you there's no getting away from him. You've been trying, 1197 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 20: you know, really you don't want to go nowhere? 1198 00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:50,960 Speaker 2: Stop it. And so was that incident that I knew 1199 00:52:51,080 --> 00:52:55,800 Speaker 2: right away, Yo, we in it, and so that was it. 1200 00:52:56,239 --> 00:52:59,400 Speaker 2: But I think that was the trajectory anyway. It just 1201 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,560 Speaker 2: in an instant solidified it. 1202 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:02,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, gotcha. 1203 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 5: You know if y'all have you know, if y'all have 1204 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,399 Speaker 5: been separated all of these years, if you read the book, 1205 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:09,800 Speaker 5: you realize that, right and will never said anything about it. 1206 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,280 Speaker 5: Why did you feel now with the time to reveal 1207 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,600 Speaker 5: that information. Was it just to sell books? 1208 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 2: Like some people think, Oh no, it's part of the process, 1209 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 2: you know. It was part of like part of my 1210 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:29,960 Speaker 2: self worth journey, like I had to really, I was 1211 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 2: leaning on will in a lot of ways. And I 1212 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 2: think for women specifically, how a lot of times our 1213 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 2: relationships are used to identify us, you know what I mean. 1214 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 2: And so I thought that was a really important process 1215 00:53:52,080 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 2: and so much a really important thing to talk about 1216 00:53:56,360 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 2: because so much of my journey happened in that time 1217 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:05,879 Speaker 2: when it was just me, you know, And I think 1218 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:11,319 Speaker 2: that and I also wanted people to realize that sometimes 1219 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 2: marriages go through breaks like that, you know. And for 1220 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:18,120 Speaker 2: people out there who are thinking about, yo, should I 1221 00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:22,400 Speaker 2: just get separated, should I, you know, get a divorce, 1222 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, man, just take time for you. Have the 1223 00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,440 Speaker 2: courage if you got the courage to sign divorce papers 1224 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 2: or you know, go to lawyers and get just have 1225 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 2: the courage to figure out how to just take time 1226 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 2: for you and then see what's showing up for you, right, 1227 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 2: because sometimes divorce is the answer, sometimes legal separation is 1228 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 2: the answer. But first and foremost, just take a year, 1229 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:52,760 Speaker 2: take a year, see what shows up, you know, before 1230 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 2: you start going into like all these other processes, because 1231 00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:00,360 Speaker 2: sometimes we can act so quickly out of any and 1232 00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 2: frustration and we just want to get away, and we 1233 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 2: think that's the answer, you know, And in some cases 1234 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:07,960 Speaker 2: it is, but in some cases it's not. 1235 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,680 Speaker 1: How did you feel when you talk about the truth, right, 1236 00:55:10,719 --> 00:55:13,880 Speaker 1: and you say a big reason of this book is 1237 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 1: you can help other people, other marriage, other couples that 1238 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 1: are dealing with it and don't know how to express 1239 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,759 Speaker 1: it because they've never seen it right. And the press 1240 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:23,839 Speaker 1: and the public says, you know, Jada is embarrassing well, 1241 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:26,800 Speaker 1: and you just said you were doing it because you 1242 00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 1: wanted to live in your truth. So what do you 1243 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:29,840 Speaker 1: say to those people that thought that it was just 1244 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:34,799 Speaker 1: embarrassing embarrassing well and dehumanizing him and it and take 1245 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 1: it as his masculine I. 1246 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:37,719 Speaker 5: Want to quote Anna in the Barrow of the View, 1247 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 5: She said, you are emasculating and embarrassing. 1248 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 2: Oh well, I think if she took time to read 1249 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 2: the book. You know, I think that if you want 1250 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,799 Speaker 2: to just read headlines, I could see how that could 1251 00:55:52,520 --> 00:55:55,320 Speaker 2: be confusing. But the book is right here, and you 1252 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,040 Speaker 2: have two books you can read, actually read my book 1253 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 2: and Will's book, which is so great that a lot 1254 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 2: of people are doing that, you know. But people have 1255 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:07,279 Speaker 2: the right to their opinions. And I always know that 1256 00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 2: anybody who's saying that hasn't really done that homework. But 1257 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:17,400 Speaker 2: you gotta expect it too because of what the headlines are. 1258 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:22,160 Speaker 2: You know what clickbait is. So Will knows what it is. 1259 00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 2: I know what it is, my kids know what it is. 1260 00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:29,480 Speaker 2: And more importantly, Gray Supreme does too, right, and so 1261 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 2: that's really that's really all I'm concerned with it. At 1262 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 2: the end of the day. 1263 00:56:35,640 --> 00:56:36,359 Speaker 5: Well, Will was up here. 1264 00:56:36,360 --> 00:56:40,240 Speaker 1: He talked about being insecure, a little bit about Tupac. 1265 00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:43,719 Speaker 1: Did y'all ever have that conversation? Because as a man, 1266 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 1: when you're a little insecure, I almost feel like you 1267 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:48,640 Speaker 1: play both sides. You want to be yourself, but you 1268 00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: want to show that you're better than the person that's 1269 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:53,920 Speaker 1: making him insecure. You're tougher than, or smarter than, or 1270 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 1: more romantic than, or a poet then a better rapper than. 1271 00:56:58,000 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 1: Did y'all ever have that conversation? 1272 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,919 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that we had conversations in that way. 1273 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,960 Speaker 2: It was just like, you know, we came up in 1274 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 2: the era where it was so unusual for a man 1275 00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 2: and a woman to be friends, right, I mean, really 1276 00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 2: think about it, like that's that's more of an open 1277 00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 2: idea now, right, But just think in our era that 1278 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 2: was just like friends. 1279 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 1: They had dat like what what what? 1280 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:26,080 Speaker 20: Right? 1281 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 2: And so I think for him it was just like 1282 00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 2: getting your mind around around that, you know, and that 1283 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:39,880 Speaker 2: the kind of friendship that we had because we had 1284 00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 2: such a you know, tight friendship that you know, was 1285 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:49,000 Speaker 2: very impactful on my life, you know. So I think 1286 00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 2: it was just getting the understanding around that Tupac and 1287 00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:58,120 Speaker 2: I could be friends, you know, and that that that 1288 00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 2: he was a part of my life and that way, 1289 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 2: and so just we had a lot of conversations around 1290 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 2: just those ideas. 1291 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:07,280 Speaker 1: How do you get over that? 1292 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:11,680 Speaker 2: I think he just realized that. And I really can't 1293 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:13,440 Speaker 2: speak for will you shuld probably ask him when he 1294 00:58:13,520 --> 00:58:16,480 Speaker 2: comes back, But I think he just realized that that's 1295 00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 2: what it was, you know what I mean, it was like, 1296 00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:22,120 Speaker 2: that's what it was. It's like, you know, that was 1297 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:25,840 Speaker 2: that beautiful friendship. And I think once he really and 1298 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 2: started as he got older, started having his own friendships 1299 00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:32,800 Speaker 2: with women, like, oh, that that is possible. 1300 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:33,480 Speaker 5: How are you with that? 1301 00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 2: I'm listen, I always told will you need some female friends? 1302 00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:38,720 Speaker 1: Did you yes? 1303 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:42,680 Speaker 2: Because I think I think I think men and women. 1304 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:47,200 Speaker 2: I think men do need female friends because and women 1305 00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 2: need male friends. And I actually think men once they. 1306 00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 5: Have daughters, I got full, I got four, and you 1307 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:58,120 Speaker 5: got four daughters and majority female. 1308 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 2: But I see, I would now let me ask you 1309 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:06,760 Speaker 2: a question. Would you say that having daughters helped you understand? 1310 00:59:07,040 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 5: Absolutely? 1311 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 2: And see? I think that's what happened to will I 1312 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:13,520 Speaker 2: think once Willow came, you know, and then he started 1313 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 2: to realize a different relationship with the feminine, right, and 1314 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:21,440 Speaker 2: then he realized, oh, wow, you know you can have 1315 00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:26,160 Speaker 2: relationships with women that are non sexual or however, y'all 1316 00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:29,440 Speaker 2: have to, you know, manage that in your own minds. 1317 00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 8: Right. 1318 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 2: I think once Willow came, she was his teacher on 1319 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,040 Speaker 2: that for sure, and so he was able to have 1320 00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 2: female friends. 1321 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:37,400 Speaker 1: I will keep a lock.

How does 1331 01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:04,160 Speaker 5: it feel in twenty twenty three to still have those 1332 01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:07,200 Speaker 5: same rumors out about people you love, like Will and doing. 1333 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:09,400 Speaker 1: I know that just came out too recently. 1334 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:15,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and let me just say this, it's ridiculous, right, 1335 01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:21,120 Speaker 2: and it's nonsense. And this is a person that tried 1336 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:24,200 Speaker 2: a shake down, a money shakedown that didn't work. We're 1337 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:29,080 Speaker 2: gonna take legal action because it's one thing to have 1338 01:00:29,240 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 2: your opinion about somebody versus just making up salacious, malicious stories. 1339 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:41,120 Speaker 2: So that's actionable. So we're gonna roll with that, you 1340 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:44,600 Speaker 2: know what I mean, it's not true. We gonna take 1341 01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:45,080 Speaker 2: care of it. 1342 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,960 Speaker 5: And that's that there was a money shakedown probably. 1343 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, money before. Well, it's it's based around this person's 1344 01:00:55,840 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 2: idea that they in some way were doing business around 1345 01:01:00,920 --> 01:01:05,240 Speaker 2: Will's book and that they spent money or what have you, 1346 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:07,720 Speaker 2: and that they needed to be compensated. So he already 1347 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 2: tried to do this money shakedown. Will was willing to 1348 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,440 Speaker 2: give him a certain amount or what have you, and 1349 01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 2: he didn't take it. So this whole situation is based 1350 01:01:18,320 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 2: on that give aunt wife though just well because of 1351 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:24,080 Speaker 2: some business that they had. And I don't know the 1352 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:26,800 Speaker 2: complete details about it, but that's about to come out, 1353 01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:29,200 Speaker 2: because like I told you, about to take legal action. 1354 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:30,120 Speaker 5: You should. 1355 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, we are for sure. 1356 01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 1: I was asking, how's Will dealing with it? You know, 1357 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:34,840 Speaker 1: with all. 1358 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:37,320 Speaker 5: Released a statement. 1359 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:42,440 Speaker 2: Will, Here's the one good thing about Will.

And I 1381 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 2: was really concerned, you know, And I'm just called. 1382 01:02:47,680 --> 01:02:50,960 Speaker 5: Tupac though he said he said him and Charlie Max 1383 01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:51,960 Speaker 5: said he quoted Tupac. 1384 01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 2: He called Tupac. 1385 01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:55,240 Speaker 5: No, he said, he called you and quoted Tupac. 1386 01:02:55,360 --> 01:02:55,720 Speaker 10: He may have. 1387 01:02:55,880 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 2: Let me tell you something. I was so worried at 1388 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 2: that time when he made that call about his his state, 1389 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:11,760 Speaker 2: because it was really deeply concerning that I don't I 1390 01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:15,840 Speaker 2: couldn't even tell you exactly what happened because I'm trying 1391 01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:18,920 Speaker 2: to think about who I can get there, Who can 1392 01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:26,360 Speaker 2: I get in the house, how can I get him help? Yeah, 1393 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:29,880 Speaker 2: And so that I was, I was in I was, 1394 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:33,280 Speaker 2: I was a little panicked, you know, to just make 1395 01:03:33,360 --> 01:03:36,600 Speaker 2: sure that he was okay and that nothing was going 1396 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:39,200 Speaker 2: to happen. He wasn't gonna hurt himself or anybody else. 1397 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:44,440 Speaker 2: So that I couldn't even I don't even remember. 1398 01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:44,520 Speaker 5: What he said. 1399 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:45,720 Speaker 7: What he said. 1400 01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:47,920 Speaker 5: I want to talk about the book and a debate 1401 01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:49,960 Speaker 5: I had at dinner a couple of weeks ago with 1402 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 5: some friends, because in the book, you say that you 1403 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 5: and Will decided to separate in every way except legally. Yeah, 1404 01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 5: and y'all would have complete transparency, no secrets about what 1405 01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:03,440 Speaker 5: y'all were doing, at whom y'all were doing it with, right, 1406 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:05,680 Speaker 5: And the debate we were having was or early in 1407 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:07,040 Speaker 5: the books, she said that they've never been in an 1408 01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 5: open relationship. But isn't that an open relationship. 1409 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:13,000 Speaker 2: Well, here's the difference between that. That's when you're you're 1410 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 2: in an open relationship and you are still intimate with 1411 01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 2: each other. Right, at that point, we went our separate ways. 1412 01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:27,960 Speaker 2: So it's as if we are divorced, separated and just 1413 01:04:28,080 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 2: trying to figure out how we're going to go about it. 1414 01:04:31,720 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 2: But at that particular point in time, we were no 1415 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:41,600 Speaker 2: longer relating in that way, right, because for us, it 1416 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 2: was over, it was done. So if you're in an 1417 01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:48,960 Speaker 2: open relationship, that means that you are still in a 1418 01:04:49,040 --> 01:04:53,760 Speaker 2: relationship with one another romantically and you are okay with 1419 01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:56,440 Speaker 2: being with other people romantically. 1420 01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 5: Like y'all were separated. 1421 01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:01,880 Speaker 2: We weren't separated, like you're done, done, done, done done. 1422 01:05:02,480 --> 01:05:05,280 Speaker 5: Why did you choose not to say August's name in 1423 01:05:05,320 --> 01:05:05,640 Speaker 5: the book? 1424 01:05:07,560 --> 01:05:11,640 Speaker 2: Really? Just too? I felt like he's been through enough, 1425 01:05:12,280 --> 01:05:14,400 Speaker 2: you know what I mean? And I just wanted to 1426 01:05:14,840 --> 01:05:17,440 Speaker 2: be respectful in that manner, I really did. 1427 01:05:18,120 --> 01:05:20,200 Speaker 5: Do you feel like that's something that you need to 1428 01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:21,680 Speaker 5: heal like that situation? 1429 01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:27,000 Speaker 2: I'm hoping at some point, you know, I'm definitely hoping 1430 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:28,120 Speaker 2: at some point for sure. 1431 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:29,320 Speaker 10: Yeah. 1432 01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:31,240 Speaker 5: I wanted to ask you too, if you pick a 1433 01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:34,480 Speaker 5: crew to run with in real life, would you choose 1434 01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:36,120 Speaker 5: between the cast or Set it Off or the cast 1435 01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:38,240 Speaker 5: of girls set it Off? 1436 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:43,800 Speaker 2: Oh that's a hard one, Damn Charlamagne, that's a hard one. 1437 01:05:43,880 --> 01:05:47,959 Speaker 1: Set it Off. They was rioters, they were, for sure. 1438 01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:51,200 Speaker 2: But you know both crews they got, you know, they 1439 01:05:51,280 --> 01:05:55,680 Speaker 2: got something real special. Yeah, I'm gonna plead the fifth 1440 01:05:55,760 --> 01:05:55,880 Speaker 2: on that. 1441 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 5: I only got two more questions, like, when you having 1442 01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 5: these conversations, now, how do you know in your words 1443 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:07,760 Speaker 5: that this isn't the pseudo guru using rationale and borrowed 1444 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,920 Speaker 5: wisdom to tell you what you want to hear? 1445 01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:17,400 Speaker 2: Because it sits so beautifully in my heart. Now, what 1446 01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:22,040 Speaker 2: I will say about that is that's why you gotta 1447 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:27,800 Speaker 2: always stay open because as we continue to grow and learn, 1448 01:06:28,440 --> 01:06:31,760 Speaker 2: you know, It's Bruce Lee said, it best be like water. 1449 01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:35,000 Speaker 2: You know what I mean, because that's where I'm sitting 1450 01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:37,920 Speaker 2: right now. Who knows when I come back, if you 1451 01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 2: know what it'll be then because we just got to 1452 01:06:40,680 --> 01:06:44,000 Speaker 2: stay open. We gotta stay fluid.

She was on the show earlier. By the way, 1639 01:15:40,520 --> 01:15:42,920 Speaker 1: we have our guest co host Easy Baby with us 1640 01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:46,760 Speaker 1: this morning as well, and we were talking about in relationships, 1641 01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:50,200 Speaker 1: marriages or whatever it may be, your significant other, having 1642 01:15:50,280 --> 01:15:52,519 Speaker 1: a friend of the opposite sex. Now, this is what 1643 01:15:52,680 --> 01:15:54,560 Speaker 1: Jada pink Smith said when we was up here. He 1644 01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:59,360 Speaker 1: talked about being insecure a little bit about Tupac. Did 1645 01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:02,160 Speaker 1: y'all ever have that conversation, because as a man, when 1646 01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:05,000 Speaker 1: you're a little insecure, I almost feel like you play 1647 01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:06,640 Speaker 1: both sides. You want to be yourself, but you want 1648 01:16:06,680 --> 01:16:08,519 Speaker 1: to show that you're better than the person that's making 1649 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 1: him insecure. Did y'all ever have that conversation? 1650 01:16:11,360 --> 01:16:14,080 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that we had conversations in that way. 1651 01:16:14,400 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 2: It was just like, you know, we came up in 1652 01:16:17,200 --> 01:16:21,720 Speaker 2: the era where it was so unusual for a man 1653 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,360 Speaker 2: and a woman to be friends in our. 1654 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:26,880 Speaker 1: Era, that was just like friends, they had to be dating. 1655 01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:31,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, like what what right? And so I think for 1656 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:36,800 Speaker 2: him it was just like getting your mind around around that, 1657 01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:40,600 Speaker 2: you know, and that the kind of friendship that we 1658 01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:45,880 Speaker 2: had because we had such a you know, tight friendship 1659 01:16:46,680 --> 01:16:49,679 Speaker 2: that you know, was very impactful on my life. 1660 01:16:50,000 --> 01:16:52,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's discuss what are your thoughts that start 1661 01:16:52,080 --> 01:16:52,840 Speaker 1: with you? Baby? 1662 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:56,000 Speaker 15: I don't know, I feel like relationships with the opposite 1663 01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:59,120 Speaker 15: sex are necessary, Like how can you just be in 1664 01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:01,200 Speaker 15: this world and just be around people that have the 1665 01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:05,440 Speaker 15: same private parts you have? You're gonna you may streamline 1666 01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:08,959 Speaker 15: your thinking, you can't really get opposed you know, feelings 1667 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:10,880 Speaker 15: or thoughts. So I think it's necessary. But I think 1668 01:17:11,120 --> 01:17:13,080 Speaker 15: you also have to have respect for your partner. Like 1669 01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:15,360 Speaker 15: I went and marry somebody that didn't trust me in 1670 01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:17,920 Speaker 15: a room without them. So you gotta trust that I'm 1671 01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:20,240 Speaker 15: gonna put you first, and I'm gonna honor the vows 1672 01:17:20,280 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 15: that I'm made to you, and that you know, I'm 1673 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:25,160 Speaker 15: not gonna put nobody in our circle that could threaten 1674 01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:25,800 Speaker 15: what we got. 1675 01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:29,759 Speaker 1: So yeah, and in my relationship with me and my wife, 1676 01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:32,559 Speaker 1: we don't really trust too many people. So for us, 1677 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:36,439 Speaker 1: it has to be mutual friends, right, meaning you know, 1678 01:17:36,720 --> 01:17:39,280 Speaker 1: we meet them together, like not like Charlotmae said earlier, 1679 01:17:39,320 --> 01:17:40,920 Speaker 1: like I can't just meet you at the grocery store. 1680 01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:42,479 Speaker 1: Now we're friends, and it's not going to be like that. 1681 01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:44,600 Speaker 1: It has to be some type of establishment and my 1682 01:17:44,680 --> 01:17:47,479 Speaker 1: wife has to approve, and with her, I have to approve. 1683 01:17:48,360 --> 01:17:50,519 Speaker 1: Outside of that. Now we're not taking no new friends, 1684 01:17:50,680 --> 01:17:53,320 Speaker 1: and it has to be our friends, like you know, 1685 01:17:53,360 --> 01:17:55,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I should be able to call that person 1686 01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:56,560 Speaker 1: like you should be able to call that person. It 1687 01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 1: should be a cohesive type of situation. 1688 01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:02,560 Speaker 5: Charlotte y, I never even think about it until this 1689 01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:07,599 Speaker 5: discussion comes up. I got mad homegirls. Yeah, my homegirls 1690 01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 5: and my wife's friends too.

Everybody does, like so 1692 01:18:13,680 --> 01:18:16,599 Speaker 5: I don't even like this discussion is like very it's 1693 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:18,720 Speaker 5: silly to me, it's immature. You know a lot of 1694 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:21,400 Speaker 5: people feel that way because sometimes they got insecurities and 1695 01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:22,960 Speaker 5: they immature, or it's new. 1696 01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:25,840 Speaker 1: Friends and sometimes people are not around for the right reason. 1697 01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:28,240 Speaker 1: And we know this, and I know especially and I 1698 01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:30,880 Speaker 1: hate to say this. A lot of felas sometimes will 1699 01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:32,960 Speaker 1: try to befriend your girl, not because they want to 1700 01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:35,719 Speaker 1: be a friend your girl's friend, they want to smash. 1701 01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:37,960 Speaker 5: Well, I'm never trying to befriend nobody.

So and then I work 1903 01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:27,920 Speaker 21: in the night life part time, so I'm a bartender 1904 01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:30,280 Speaker 21: waitress and I have a bunch of guy friends that 1905 01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:33,880 Speaker 21: I work with for years. And when my husband and 1906 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:36,439 Speaker 21: I first started dating, he was very like accepting of 1907 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:40,840 Speaker 21: everything and everybody because everybody was like cool and respectful. 1908 01:26:41,600 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 21: And once I got married, like everybody was like, nah, 1909 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:47,640 Speaker 21: she's married, leave her alone, leave her alone, like they 1910 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:51,400 Speaker 21: were very perspective of me. So yeah, and then his 1911 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:54,439 Speaker 21: girls grow homegirls that he's had, there's only ever been 1912 01:26:54,479 --> 01:26:56,080 Speaker 21: one person that I have to be like, she's not 1913 01:26:56,200 --> 01:26:59,720 Speaker 21: your friends, because a girl just knows when somewhere trying 1914 01:26:59,760 --> 01:27:01,080 Speaker 21: to do so. 1915 01:27:01,800 --> 01:27:04,000 Speaker 1: But I will say that that might change it a 1916 01:27:04,040 --> 01:27:05,880 Speaker 1: little bit too right. And the reason I say that 1917 01:27:06,000 --> 01:27:09,000 Speaker 1: might change if you're if you're working and guys are 1918 01:27:09,080 --> 01:27:11,280 Speaker 1: hollering at you all day long, I think that can 1919 01:27:11,320 --> 01:27:12,839 Speaker 1: make any guy feel a little insecure. 1920 01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:14,280 Speaker 7: Why I just. 1921 01:27:15,800 --> 01:27:19,400 Speaker 21: Anything like because they don't touch me, they don't do anything, Like, 1922 01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:21,400 Speaker 21: they can look and they can say what they want 1923 01:27:21,479 --> 01:27:24,240 Speaker 21: to say. And he's not bothered by it because he 1924 01:27:24,400 --> 01:27:26,200 Speaker 21: knows at the end of the night, I'm coming home. 1925 01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:31,280 Speaker 5: That's right. So what you're what you're calling being bothered 1926 01:27:31,320 --> 01:27:34,519 Speaker 5: and is actually just called being insecure. Yes, I said, 1927 01:27:34,520 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 5: but why so you don't trust your woman? 1928 01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:38,600 Speaker 1: No, it's not a matter about trusting.
