Speaker 1: Welcome to her politics, y'all. Clap, clap, do the clapping things.
Speaker 1: Put some respect on my name? Yeah? You know, you
Speaker 1: know there's a lot of times podcasts come in they
Speaker 1: had like the clapping sound effects. I need mine to
Speaker 1: be a K forty seven. Yeah, yeah, yeah, either that
Speaker 1: or just simple designers. Live a welcome y'all. If you
Speaker 1: can't figure it out right now, we got our returning
Speaker 1: guests who was one of y'all's favorite ladies, gentlemen, Derreck
Speaker 1: minus in the building. I'm back home. Do I keep that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: All right, I'm sorry. I think it just pulls it
Speaker 1: out of you. All right, saying politics, Bro, we're not
Speaker 1: doing the uh grified version of politics. If we're gonna
Speaker 1: be hood, we're gonna be good. CD. Absolutely it's th
Speaker 1: A C G actual th C buddy oh man, alright,
Speaker 1: the show it's called put some Respect on my name?
Speaker 1: Did you do that on purpose? Because I got the
Speaker 1: bird Man haircut? Was that? What that was? Wow? I
Speaker 1: didn't think of that, but I mean, yeah, I guess
Speaker 1: exposed exposed well, actually, speaking of which, um as we've
Speaker 1: been dialing in the show trying to figure out the segments.
Speaker 1: I usually try to start off with some sort of
Speaker 1: background for the name of like where we got it from,
Speaker 1: Like when we were talking about Boss, talked about Rick
Speaker 1: Ross and then um, this one being respect on my name.
Speaker 1: I would love for you to let the people know
Speaker 1: where we got that phrase from. Yeah, so, um, burn
Speaker 1: Man was I guess he heard that Charlemagne and God
Speaker 1: and the whole breakfast club crew had beef with him,
Speaker 1: so he walked in there with some goons and that's
Speaker 1: where put some respect on my name was birthed. Uh.
Speaker 1: He was arguing with Charlotte Maagne and he just stopped
Speaker 1: talking and folded his arms and said, put some respect
Speaker 1: on my name. And quite honestly, at that point, for me,
Speaker 1: I would have been scared. But Charlottegagne was like, it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter and itbody scared of you. I was like, damn,
Speaker 1: Charlotte Man, Okay, I forgot you from South Carolina, but
Speaker 1: the real South Carolina gangsters like, don't don't let these
Speaker 1: thro these microphones food. He's like, I'm with it, okay.
Speaker 1: That was That was That was a very funny thing
Speaker 1: because you never see bird Man get out of character,
Speaker 1: but he literally got a character at that moment. He
Speaker 1: was he was really hot about some radio DJ's talking
Speaker 1: bad about I think it was the Wayne situation or whatever.
Speaker 1: So even more background, bird Man started a record label.
Speaker 1: Oh is your there there this you never know. I'm
Speaker 1: just saying. I just look, I was a teacher for
Speaker 1: a long time. Oh, they think it's Michael Keaton Blackbird
Speaker 1: that started Cash Muney Millionaires, which was Little Wayne's record label.
Speaker 1: Charlemagne that God is on the show called the Breakfast
Speaker 1: clubble you just you just went to calculus, Like you
Speaker 1: can't assume everybody in a calculus class. You never know.
Speaker 1: They could be white or young so young people. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So anyway, one of the funniest things about that was
Speaker 1: just how New Orleans Birdman is because respect ends with
Speaker 1: a T. He said it came, but he said it
Speaker 1: would have came respect. Yeah. Absolutely. And I've never heard
Speaker 1: the phrase like put some respect all my name. I
Speaker 1: never heard that anything. I'm gonna keep with you. I
Speaker 1: never heard that not all my name, Like it's like
Speaker 1: a condiment, what I'm respect What it was crazy to me.
Speaker 1: It was like I completely understand what you're trying to say,
Speaker 1: actually makes perfect sense. And actually that's like it's probably
Speaker 1: the most accurate way to say it, absolutely and didn't
Speaker 1: be honest. I can't put some respect on my check
Speaker 1: on the on the you know what I'm saying that
Speaker 1: her j So, Yes, I mean respect, respect as a
Speaker 1: condiment is actually a thing like a perfect sense. It
Speaker 1: made sense to me. I am this. You need to
Speaker 1: put respect as a condiment, as a condiment because it
Speaker 1: enhances what I already sweet baby, right, so you feel me?
Speaker 1: But the sweet sweet baby rays on my name. Bro yes,
Speaker 1: so so when you now, now, usually when you're coming
Speaker 1: in demanded already put some respect on my name. Like
Speaker 1: there's something you're insinuating. What what do you what do
Speaker 1: you think you're insinuating already that I've already earned it
Speaker 1: right already in respect. So with bird Man, he's like, man,
Speaker 1: how many number one hits you need? How many stars
Speaker 1: or how many dead bodies do I have to procure
Speaker 1: to know? This is not a game? But I'm playing
Speaker 1: with you. I'm not. So that would be the hood
Speaker 1: side when somebody say, hey, man, I need to put
Speaker 1: some respect on my name and then fold your arms. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a bad situation. That's like look, listen,
Speaker 1: there's bodies and I know where they are, and you
Speaker 1: don't need to be one. You don't need to be
Speaker 1: one of right, that's pretty much speak to me as
Speaker 1: one worthy of honor because I have proven, God, I'll
Speaker 1: kill you. I'm not playing I've proven I'm not playing right.
Speaker 1: And when you do that, that means you gotta like
Speaker 1: the other person is supposed to take you serious. And
Speaker 1: and how you get somebody take you serious at least
Speaker 1: the hood turns is you got to be an earner
Speaker 1: or they need to be somebody somewhere. Yeah, it's really
Speaker 1: It really kind of reminds me of the United States.
Speaker 1: It does at the US. For the US would be like, hey, god,
Speaker 1: us cut this out. S name. Look, look that's not
Speaker 1: even a direction I was gonna go with this. But
Speaker 1: it's perfect because if you think if you think of
Speaker 1: like if you think of like the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Okay,
Speaker 1: so that was a military base one day and they
Speaker 1: just bomb the military base. We blew up an island.
Speaker 1: Bro we blew up a whole island, blew up the
Speaker 1: whole island. We said, we'll take your your base and
Speaker 1: raise you an island. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, which actually
Speaker 1: leads us to the other one, to the to the
Speaker 1: one I do want to talk about is like, okay,
Speaker 1: so cool, you're gonna fly some planes into into our
Speaker 1: our buildings. How about we invade not only your country,
Speaker 1: but all four countries around your country and stay there
Speaker 1: for eighteen years. How about that I spec on my
Speaker 1: name when we leave, y'all will never bomb another thing. Listen,
Speaker 1: who's your homies, where your grandma stay, where everybody where,
Speaker 1: everybody lives. Right. The hardest line was when said he said,
Speaker 1: I get tired of looking for you, spray on mama
Speaker 1: crib and make you look for me. That's the hardest mind.
Speaker 1: And that's kind of the idea. All right, we're not
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna get you, and then we're gonna make
Speaker 1: you want to try to kill us, and then we're
Speaker 1: gonna kill you, and we're gonna say it's just us
Speaker 1: doing our job, expect on my name. So I think
Speaker 1: there are two situations in our zigeys today that two
Speaker 1: people that have demanded to put respect on that on
Speaker 1: their names. One is the Taliban. Yes, yes, because I
Speaker 1: can't believe. I can't believe in my lifetime I read
Speaker 1: a sentence out the mouth of a US president that said,
Speaker 1: we're starting peace negotiations with the Taliban. I never thought that.
Speaker 1: I didn't think that was an end goal for that situation.
Speaker 1: I do when you so the Taliban is like listen,
Speaker 1: y'all gonna respect me. You ain't gonna call me no. Look,
Speaker 1: we are not some street thug or unorganized. We move countries.
Speaker 1: You're gonna respect me. You know who else said put
Speaker 1: some respect on my name? That president hopeful Joe Biden moment,
Speaker 1: you're gonna respect me. I'm out here a man. The
Speaker 1: system works. That's the empire strikes back. The system works.
Speaker 1: Bro shout out to Bernie bros Hey, hey, respect on
Speaker 1: my name. Essentially, Joe Biden walked into the breakfast club
Speaker 1: that is the Democratic you know, that is the Democratic
Speaker 1: electorate and was like respect me, y'all cracking jokes. And
Speaker 1: I will be the first to admit that I was
Speaker 1: filing Joe Biden under Jed Bush and that he was
Speaker 1: going to torpedo himself. Facts. I thought it was a rap.
Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie. I was like, ass over, there's
Speaker 1: no way that he's gonna be able to get enough
Speaker 1: delegates and my how the tables have turned wow crazy.
Speaker 1: I feel I honestly feel bad for Bernie because my
Speaker 1: guy gets all the way. Do you know what Bernie
Speaker 1: Senders is? Bernie Senders is the Chris Paul trade, Chris
Speaker 1: Paul bro Yes, my man is like, oh the trade works,
Speaker 1: everybody's happy. And then David Stern comes in. I just
Speaker 1: like NA to the Clippers. You go like that. He's
Speaker 1: literally that he is let me eat look yes, yes,
Speaker 1: and that is still painful as a Laker film. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: It's so true though. When you think Bernie, I always
Speaker 1: think like, okay, so Bernie is like Bernie made the wave, right,
Speaker 1: he moved the entire Nobody would tell him, I know,
Speaker 1: universal like he moved the entire discussion himself, by myself,
Speaker 1: moved by myself, moved the whole conversation. But my man Mrse,
Speaker 1: like my man Mrs always says, I never forget it.
Speaker 1: He was like, you can't ride the way when you're
Speaker 1: ahead of it. Can't ride him if you make him.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. That that's why he's a
Speaker 1: master lyricist. Yes, it's just like, what are you gonna do?
Speaker 1: He Bernie made the wave and then the system was like,
Speaker 1: but we got a guy though, we got this guy,
Speaker 1: other old guy, the other old guy, so you know,
Speaker 1: uh so, so he came again, puts a respect on
Speaker 1: my name. The next part what we usually want to
Speaker 1: do is as I'm dialing in, how this the show goes,
Speaker 1: y'all right with us, y'all know how we're still figuring
Speaker 1: this thing out. Is the next section would be like,
Speaker 1: let's do the history and backstory of the actual politics.
Speaker 1: But before we do that, there was an episode I
Speaker 1: had to cancel because they people started dropping like flies.
Speaker 1: What I wanted to do was do an episode where
Speaker 1: we took each uh democratic like candidate and cast them
Speaker 1: as like high school characters each one, but they kept
Speaker 1: dropping out, so we couldn't do it. But I had him,
Speaker 1: but I already had him though. I was like, you know,
Speaker 1: like if mama had Amy Klobuchar is definitely the lady
Speaker 1: that like takes her lunch into the classroom into like
Speaker 1: her favorite teachers classroom and just kind of eats her
Speaker 1: lunch by herself. But she like knows but and it's
Speaker 1: just like everything's there, like she's not she doesn't have
Speaker 1: to do this I'm just not interested in you. Yeah, facts,
Speaker 1: the facts, and I'm like, I just felt like Pete
Speaker 1: Boo boot like you just he just runs for ASB.
Speaker 1: I just want to be in charge of a club,
Speaker 1: like really cares, just want to be there. I just
Speaker 1: want to be in charge. Say less with that, right,
Speaker 1: I'm with that right. So would you say who would
Speaker 1: you say like Tulsi or or Bloomberg is if they're
Speaker 1: high school characters. I think Taulci Gabbert is the the
Speaker 1: girl that's in our RTC or she's like the girl
Speaker 1: that's in like the Future Farmers of America. It's just
Speaker 1: in the club. She's out here because she's just out here,
Speaker 1: Like she pulls up to you know, everybody else is
Speaker 1: driving to school and she rides a horse in the
Speaker 1: school and she's just like she's just this is what
Speaker 1: I do. I'm Yeah, she'd definitely be goth, like she'd
Speaker 1: wear camo cameo goth camo like came. She would be
Speaker 1: talking about the prison industrial complex. Yeah, she's We're all
Speaker 1: just like, how are you out there? Out there? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like it's like we're in the middle of l A.
Speaker 1: Why are you riding a horse to school? I understand, Like,
Speaker 1: I don't get it. I just believe that she's just
Speaker 1: out there. She'd be that the fact that she and
Speaker 1: she misses social qu was because the fact that she
Speaker 1: has not dropped social cues do not matter. Like she's
Speaker 1: just like I don't have a social cue. It's just
Speaker 1: like whatever I want to do, I do it. And
Speaker 1: it's just like we're done talking when I'm done talking.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so that's her. Who was the other person, Bloomberg?
Speaker 1: Who you think Bloomberg is in high school? Oh, Bloomberg
Speaker 1: is the rich kid with all the video game just
Speaker 1: throws parties. That's what it is, all the video games. Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: I know you guys are poor. Oh snap, I know
Speaker 1: you didn't. Just that's amaze. I can't do nothing around here, ladies.
Speaker 1: Gentleman Almas there goes to red couch coming back. He
Speaker 1: was looking for her phone. We're keeping it. Yeah, that's perfect.
Speaker 1: That that is. That's real life. That's what that is.
Speaker 1: That's real life. Wife comes in, blows the podcast up
Speaker 1: looking for the phone, and then goes back and continues
Speaker 1: to be a start. Ladies, gentlemen, Joe Biden just married
Speaker 1: you doing all this work? Oh, man, Joe Biden came in,
Speaker 1: was like, I just still mind yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: oh man, yeah so yeah, so yeah the video game.
Speaker 1: It's a rich kid, got all the video games all
Speaker 1: the uh you know what I'm saying. Everybody's kind of
Speaker 1: sketchy about him, but he got all the video games.
Speaker 1: So you He's like, what are you talking about? My
Speaker 1: parties are always parties, are always cracking parties because your
Speaker 1: house is huge. Yeah, they're all in your dad's coach.
Speaker 1: What the heck. We don't really like you though. It's like,
Speaker 1: you're clearly not a good guy, but you're rich, so
Speaker 1: it's you do throw parties, so excellent parties. So here
Speaker 1: we go, even though we know we might get hurt
Speaker 1: at one of them. Or yeah, and if the cops come,
Speaker 1: you're totally gonna blame us. You're thrower. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I can't believe there came over. I didn't him exactly. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're that guy. Wait, who are we missing? And Joe?
Speaker 1: If Joe's in high school, I feel like Joe played
Speaker 1: a ton of sports. Joe is the black kid on
Speaker 1: the basketball team, or no, Joe is a white kid
Speaker 1: on the basketball team that the black girls like and
Speaker 1: he has a black girlfriend until he gets to college
Speaker 1: and then wants to live his regular life and then
Speaker 1: he just goes and just a different life. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: that's Joe. Joe Biden, Joe Biden. He's a Sean Sean,
Speaker 1: like the white guy named Sean basketball. Right. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: goes against his haircut the same place we do. Absolutely,
Speaker 1: that's that's Joe. Joe probably knows a lot of R
Speaker 1: and B all of it. Yeah, he's I saw a
Speaker 1: Meeme earlier that was like, if you go on a
Speaker 1: date with Joe, Joe is gonna try to convince you
Speaker 1: to go to this party where his homeboy barocks at
Speaker 1: and then Barrock never shows up. Joe is definitely the
Speaker 1: white guy that's like, I can't be racist a black girl.
Speaker 1: Are you talking about? Like he's that guy, Like it's
Speaker 1: like he's like I know everything about but we're talking
Speaker 1: about on the basketball team. You just like one of
Speaker 1: the guys, right, they don't see me no different. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's that guy, Yeah, I think so. Yeah, what about
Speaker 1: Tom Stire? What do you think he was? I don't
Speaker 1: know what that was. I don't even know if he fits.
Speaker 1: Tom was just I don't know, Bro might have been
Speaker 1: home school. I still don't get the Bro, dude, it
Speaker 1: is Tom might have been homes private homeschool kid. That
Speaker 1: just was like, but he goes to the dances. Bro,
Speaker 1: he plays on the local high school team because the
Speaker 1: homeschool doesn't get athletics, so he could play for the
Speaker 1: public school. And he's like, You're like, you're a good dude.
Speaker 1: It's just something's not hading up. You're weird. Weird. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like I have no reason. He's yeah, you're having
Speaker 1: discussions in the locker rooms, like, we really have no
Speaker 1: reason to not like him. Listen, if you can't secure
Speaker 1: the black vote by saying, I believe every black person
Speaker 1: should have reparations. You you just literally told black people
Speaker 1: you was gonna give him money. And I don't know, right,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I called you man. I'm sure I
Speaker 1: feel about it. I mean cool, Yeah, I guess it's
Speaker 1: like Bro. I mean, he'll probably come, he'll probably come
Speaker 1: to the barbecue, but he'll probably bring some like some
Speaker 1: potato salad with raisins in it, something like that, but
Speaker 1: like doing his best. Just think He's like, you're legitical guy,
Speaker 1: You're just I just don't want to tell anybody we're friends.
Speaker 1: DJ Sewan p and uh A Crow. They had a
Speaker 1: character they called him Corey. That was their character where
Speaker 1: it was just like Corey's a solid hang. I'll just
Speaker 1: never call it dagas like if we're in the right
Speaker 1: place at the right time, it's good. And then after
Speaker 1: you he's like, I don't never call it gay, not absolutely,
Speaker 1: but when you're thinking about scaring the beer, you just like,
Speaker 1: I don't even think of calling court. But he's also
Speaker 1: the kid that's going to invent like Facebook or something.
Speaker 1: You're just like, Dad, I should have been because I
Speaker 1: feel like I feel like I feel like he actually
Speaker 1: has some things to say. He did get He's like,
Speaker 1: whoever we get president next, she's gonna be like day
Speaker 1: Tom stared. Dude. Actually, man, he was kind of talking
Speaker 1: about samething with Andrew Yang. Andrew Yang is gonna be
Speaker 1: like I feel like, it's like, now we're gonna be
Speaker 1: like dad bro. Yang said he was gonna give us
Speaker 1: all a grand base base page. It's not that you
Speaker 1: should have voted, buddy, Yeah, but now I can't do
Speaker 1: that because you know, with that war with the coronavirus,
Speaker 1: like the coronavirus is taking shape in the actual human
Speaker 1: were like, actually, oh man, so funny. Yeah, I feel
Speaker 1: like both of them. I could see a Tom Styre
Speaker 1: Andrew Yang and somebody's cabinet, Like I would love to
Speaker 1: see it Andrew Yanging because I'm sort of yeah, he
Speaker 1: had a Bernie type movement, I think, yeah, and just
Speaker 1: like get some get some like get your weight up,
Speaker 1: get some years in, come back later. I'm with that
Speaker 1: all right. Now, So for for the politics history part
Speaker 1: of put some respect on Joe Biden's name. Do you
Speaker 1: guys know what Super Tuesday is? You know Super Tuesday?
Speaker 1: What that what that means? At least it's like tacos
Speaker 1: and get tacos and stuff, right, yeah, it's Taco Tuesday.
Speaker 1: It's perfect. Yeah. Yeah. So it's like this is when
Speaker 1: like do you get all the is it? Is it
Speaker 1: all of the rest of the country or is it
Speaker 1: just like the main third It's like a third of
Speaker 1: the delegates. So the the system for electing the Republican
Speaker 1: system is different than the democratic system because the democratic
Speaker 1: the Republican system doesn't have super delicates, right, Um, And
Speaker 1: what's is weird to me? I never understood the idea
Speaker 1: of why the super thing it doesn't make it. It's
Speaker 1: very similar to the electoral college to where at some
Speaker 1: point somebody sold this as this is the most fair
Speaker 1: way to do. This doesn't make any sense. It's a
Speaker 1: pointless it's it really is, you know, especially when you
Speaker 1: had like horse drawn buggies and you had to like
Speaker 1: and you know, there was a time when like voting
Speaker 1: was very public, like they you'd have a guy that
Speaker 1: looks more like caucusing where there was a guy that
Speaker 1: stood on one stoop and another guy stood on the
Speaker 1: other stoop yelling vote for me, right, and you were
Speaker 1: trying to draw crowds, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: if it was like and you'd hire goons to come
Speaker 1: get foods out their houses to be like who you
Speaker 1: vote for today? Who you vote for today? Foods? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you have to out beat you up and then drag
Speaker 1: into the poland thing, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: at that point it was like, all right, the super
Speaker 1: delegates was out around it. It kind of made sense,
Speaker 1: right system, but the superdelgate was great. So basically super
Speaker 1: Tuesdays this idea, it's for the it's for the presidential primary.
Speaker 1: And then the Democratic Party Tuesa between February and March.
Speaker 1: It's when the idea similar to electoral college of like,
Speaker 1: just because one state has more people shouldn't mean that
Speaker 1: that state gets the most amount of votes, because it's
Speaker 1: almost like then that would mean that the person from
Speaker 1: a smaller state vote doesn't count because they will always
Speaker 1: be outnumbered, you know what I'm saying. So like, it's
Speaker 1: so they were trying to and it originally trying to
Speaker 1: create some sort of fairness, right, Um, then you enter
Speaker 1: gerrymandering and like redistricting and all that good stuff. Um,
Speaker 1: and and then you enter black people now can vote, right,
Speaker 1: So then that threw off the whole right, so uh so,
Speaker 1: essentially Super Tuesday it's just the day that the most
Speaker 1: amount of delegates are up for grab, the most amount
Speaker 1: of states are up for grabs, and generally, if you can,
Speaker 1: if you can lock down Super Tuesday, just the way
Speaker 1: the math works out, you're probably gonna win. And Joe
Speaker 1: came in. Hella behind Joe was stanking. I was like,
Speaker 1: he fini Peter. Everybody was like, he Fini Peter out
Speaker 1: and Peter was such a funny word. I was like,
Speaker 1: whoa yeah. First, Yeah, he also had his his bus
Speaker 1: the bus. The rap on his bus says Joe Biden
Speaker 1: for president, and it said no malarkey, that's his Uh yes.
Speaker 1: Over that, I was like, malarkey, bro, like you sure
Speaker 1: you are that confident in the black vote that you
Speaker 1: know we're good that you could put malarkey on the
Speaker 1: bus and not lose us. He really should have if
Speaker 1: he wanted to black vote, he should have put like, bro,
Speaker 1: we got this. You know what I'm saying. Side says
Speaker 1: so dumb if that was his thing, say less, yeah
Speaker 1: he triving but yeah, so he was like, yo, I
Speaker 1: need I need my respect, and he got he got Tuesday.
Speaker 1: I can't even be mad, Like I definitely didn't expect
Speaker 1: this because he's getting the floor mop with him all
Speaker 1: the way up to this point and then it's just
Speaker 1: boom boom boom. But then he got into the South,
Speaker 1: you know, and that's where a lot of minorities are,
Speaker 1: and minorities have been telling people for the longest they
Speaker 1: don't rock with Bernie. Like there's a level of black
Speaker 1: people for sure that rocket Bernie definitely, But as my
Speaker 1: grandmother is not rocking with my mama is not rocking
Speaker 1: with Bernie Center, Like I can tell you that now
Speaker 1: she's just not And I don't know what the gap
Speaker 1: is between why he can't get that in the older
Speaker 1: black people, but it's just not happening, honestly, don't understand
Speaker 1: why he don't why he don't resonate for them, and
Speaker 1: they don't. You know, a lot of people from my
Speaker 1: age and younger, the kids, they're like, yo, yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't understand, especially somebody who lived through like you know,
Speaker 1: you maybe didn't live through the New Deal, but like
Speaker 1: you just like you, you you remember pro social programs
Speaker 1: that like abstely, I don't understand, like it's just a trip.
Speaker 1: It's a trip. I don't yeah, yeah, and uh yeah,
Speaker 1: you know as me and my wife had who is
Speaker 1: also gainfully employed, trying to figure out how we're gonna
Speaker 1: pay for our healthcare with jobs within the job has
Speaker 1: benefits and we're still trying to figure out how we're
Speaker 1: gonna pay for it. But yeah, but you know, Joe, yeah,
Speaker 1: thanks no Ma Larkey anyway, so he was like, put
Speaker 1: some respect on my name the Taliban. I can't. This
Speaker 1: one blew my mind because you're like, I don't know
Speaker 1: if you've ever been a situation where you like, I
Speaker 1: can't believe I have to take this person serious. I
Speaker 1: have definitely been in a couple of those. You know,
Speaker 1: you're just saying, like, this guy, this person is forcing
Speaker 1: me to take them serious to where you like, we
Speaker 1: went from we don't negotiate with terrorists like all the
Speaker 1: way to like, we're setting up a peace treaty, not
Speaker 1: with the Afghan government, the Taliban were setting up with
Speaker 1: the Taliban's a regime. It's a it's a it's a yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a regime. It's yeah. I guess the thing that
Speaker 1: this is what trips me out about that whole thing
Speaker 1: is up until now, Trump's positioned himself as a strong man,
Speaker 1: and it's right before an election. I don't understand the
Speaker 1: logic because to me, this doesn't make Trump seems it's
Speaker 1: because all these presidents up until you have said we're
Speaker 1: not even talking to y'all, we're not negotiating anything. And
Speaker 1: then you're like, I would negotiate ran on ending this war.
Speaker 1: He did run that. He was like often to bring
Speaker 1: the truth song. It's good, we shouldn't even be over
Speaker 1: there anyway because we're not getting oil. Was his reasoning,
Speaker 1: he was like, we're not getting the oil we're getting
Speaker 1: out of it. We'retting. But I think the timing of
Speaker 1: it to me is I guess it makes sense if
Speaker 1: you're trying to say we're gonna bring people from out
Speaker 1: of there. I think it's just the way that is happening.
Speaker 1: The idea of we're negotiating, meaning negotiation is giving and
Speaker 1: getting to what that means. We're having to give something up.
Speaker 1: So the Taliban agreed to a ceasefire right UH, temporary
Speaker 1: reduction of violence between the Taliban, the Afghan forces, and
Speaker 1: the US. We also agreed to withdraw our troops twelve
Speaker 1: thousand of them down to hundred of them within a
Speaker 1: hundred thirty five days. If the Taliban follows through these commitments,
Speaker 1: I think all the U. S. Foreign troops will leave
Speaker 1: Afghanistan within the next fourteen months. But this could be
Speaker 1: pretty destabilized, like a ton could go wrong right then.
Speaker 1: They wanted these counter counter terrorism assurances, like the United
Speaker 1: States evaded Afghanistan back in two thousand one to try
Speaker 1: to eliminate the threat of terrorism. So it seems to
Speaker 1: halt terrorist activities in the country, including Al Qaeda and
Speaker 1: the self proclaimed a Lama state as a part of
Speaker 1: the agreement, that Taliban is guaranteed that the Afghanistan will
Speaker 1: not be used by any of its members or other
Speaker 1: individuals or terrorist groups or to threaten the security of
Speaker 1: the United States and its allies. And in return, we
Speaker 1: need our captors back, like y'all stop shooting, give us
Speaker 1: our stuff, we'll leave. We're good, We're good. Back to
Speaker 1: me and Derek good. And the problem with and the
Speaker 1: problem with the Taliban is like, oh, we shoot. So
Speaker 1: this is a win for the Taliban, would you say,
Speaker 1: put some respect on my name? Right? That are sure
Speaker 1: in that area, for sure. But Trump's I guess that
Speaker 1: does Fitish philosophy because in philosophy is that's none of
Speaker 1: our business. I don't care make American. Just get all
Speaker 1: people out and get us out of there, and y'all
Speaker 1: blow each other up. How we got but how we
Speaker 1: even got twisted in that was so interesting because so
Speaker 1: if in you know, the September eleventh attacks, right, our
Speaker 1: plan was to eliminate terrorism. But you're fighting an idea, right, Um,
Speaker 1: so you have to go find where the idea is right,
Speaker 1: So then you have all these things like al Quaeda, Taliban.
Speaker 1: You have all these different sets that, like, if you
Speaker 1: don't know what you're looking at, you think it's all
Speaker 1: the same thing. They all just terrorists, but they all
Speaker 1: they're all different. They're different ideologically. There's some of them
Speaker 1: are just like a super like super strict would be
Speaker 1: like their reversion of the like strictest conservative if like
Speaker 1: the law of the Koran group. And then you have
Speaker 1: the people that are like, no, we're just out here
Speaker 1: getting were getting ours right. Then you have the nationalists
Speaker 1: that are just like nah, man, like this is our faith,
Speaker 1: but this is our soil. So there's so many different
Speaker 1: like things. And remember al Qaeda was aiding the Taliban
Speaker 1: and in Afghan forces were trying to like help us
Speaker 1: figure out what's going on with these guys. So essentially
Speaker 1: we were just like, yo, you clicked up with them. Okay,
Speaker 1: you are enemy too, right, you clicked up with him,
Speaker 1: You are enemy too, y'all clicked up, you are enemy.
Speaker 1: You clicked up, you are enemy. So that just kept happening,
Speaker 1: and then just eighteen years later, what have we done?
Speaker 1: Blew up a lot of stuff? Blew up a lot
Speaker 1: of stuff. Do you save allie? A lot of reasons,
Speaker 1: creative regime change that just caused more problems and more
Speaker 1: vacuums out of that hole, out of that whole goulash
Speaker 1: grew isis right, who was like the ultimate Tron version
Speaker 1: where you got where you got al Qaeda and the
Speaker 1: Taliban being like, no, iis crazy like them, They're like, y'all,
Speaker 1: wow boy, Yeah, They're like, I mean, isis is like
Speaker 1: the new trap rappers. It was like I go back
Speaker 1: and listened like Gucci and and and jeez, I'm like damn.
Speaker 1: I mean you know that was hard. But it was
Speaker 1: like it was like Dag, like these new kids are like,
Speaker 1: you know, I worship the devil. I was. I was
Speaker 1: scored a lot of code. Granny. He's just like Dag.
Speaker 1: We're like, chill, you're gonna give my grandma Molly. It's
Speaker 1: like get your Grandma Molley and all in auto tune
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, man, as isis is new trap? Isis
Speaker 1: is new trap? That's I love it. You just you
Speaker 1: made your own version of I should just make you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: isis is the new Trap. So they were just basically like, look,
Speaker 1: this is what we need and we need y'all to leave. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then and then so now we have to trust
Speaker 1: that like Afghanistan itself, the actual country is gonna either
Speaker 1: a not punk out with the Taliban or be not
Speaker 1: punk out with America, because again, we just came into
Speaker 1: the country and it was like I'm clapping, Oh, y'all
Speaker 1: cut it out. Yeah yeah, yeah, I'll taping. Oh you
Speaker 1: were him both y'all getting clapped. So uh so that
Speaker 1: just put them in a situation where they're like, man,
Speaker 1: if you know, if you're putting this in our hands,
Speaker 1: like you have to remember like when you just when
Speaker 1: y'all just leave just yade out in fourteen months, yeah
Speaker 1: and then so so it's just like the idea that
Speaker 1: like we are in a time that the Taliban forced
Speaker 1: a major country, the major country, the major the major
Speaker 1: to respect like you you have to negotiate with us.
Speaker 1: It's crazy, it's interesting. It's respecial name, a lot of respect.
Speaker 1: You got respect. You gotta put it with a K.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna put in the show notes some some links
Speaker 1: as to like how the Taliban got started. Uh and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you all see that it was c
Speaker 1: I a money um as in it's but that's what
Speaker 1: happened all right, next history lesson. You have to remember
Speaker 1: how much America absolutely despised the Soviets and the spread
Speaker 1: of communism, like like we've really hated it. So the
Speaker 1: Taliban is like predominantly pastoon, right uh Islamic fundamentalist group.
Speaker 1: They ruled Afghanistan from like six to two thousand one.
Speaker 1: It ended basically because the US led um invasion like
Speaker 1: toppled the regime because of nine eleven because they were
Speaker 1: providing refuse to al Qaeda and Osadam a bit laden.
Speaker 1: But then they regrouped like across the border of Pakistan
Speaker 1: where its central leadership Mullah Mohammed Omar leads the insurgency
Speaker 1: against the Western bat governments in Kabul and UH. Both
Speaker 1: the United States and Afghanistan have pursued sort of negotiations
Speaker 1: with this group. And now this is why we have
Speaker 1: this story now, is because they nailed it right. So
Speaker 1: they were formed in the early nineties via Afghan faction
Speaker 1: of a certain type of Islamic fighters. I'm gonna I'm
Speaker 1: gonna butcher this word, but it's like musha Hadeen fighters
Speaker 1: who resisted the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, like in sev
Speaker 1: eight nine. So again you mentioned Afghanistan, America gets triggered, right,
Speaker 1: So we had this covert backing, right, the CIA backed
Speaker 1: along with its Pakistani counterpart, the Inter Services Intelligence. They
Speaker 1: backed the Taliban because Taliban is pastoral for students, right,
Speaker 1: that's the term. But that was the group that was
Speaker 1: stopping the Russians from coming into Afghanistan. So we got
Speaker 1: some we got some blood in their right anyway, That's
Speaker 1: kind of where it started. But then they started imposing
Speaker 1: like their sort of their brand of justice and like
Speaker 1: consolidated like this like territorial control. Then in the Taliban,
Speaker 1: like juristudents. She was like drawn from like pastimes, like
Speaker 1: pre Islamic tribal code, like the stuff like past and
Speaker 1: it is like a region, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: of of that area that's like before Islam was there.
Speaker 1: So like there's they're pulling a lot of stuff from
Speaker 1: like all kinds of different things. Either way, more or
Speaker 1: a story that I'm trying to tell you. It's like
Speaker 1: c I a put the guns in their hands back
Speaker 1: to Derek, and I'm putting the show notes the copy
Speaker 1: of like this the projected ceasefire agreement um with I
Speaker 1: can't believe this the Taliban and um and we'll see
Speaker 1: who gets this this democratic nomination. I mean, you know
Speaker 1: we're gonna get it wrong. Yeah, okay, so predict to me,
Speaker 1: it just Hood Antennas. What is what is Trump? What
Speaker 1: is gonna be Trump's attacks towards Biden Hood Antennas. Oh,
Speaker 1: first of all, if I'm Trump, if we're talking about
Speaker 1: the minority demographic, it's gonna be He's gonna go after
Speaker 1: the crime bill. And see the thing what Trump is.
Speaker 1: Since Trump hasn't really been a career politician, he doesn't
Speaker 1: have a record that Biden can really play with except
Speaker 1: for the last four years. But Biden has had I mean,
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris broke Biden's neck the first debate talking about
Speaker 1: busting and he's talking about the crime bill and all
Speaker 1: of that, about that how long ago? That was not
Speaker 1: long long ago. She broke his name, Well, she broke
Speaker 1: his neck, that faced brushed call her for sports advice. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, like, hey, why do you have to
Speaker 1: do that? Because I was just gonna run with And
Speaker 1: the thing what Trump has though, is that he's been
Speaker 1: a part of the First Act. He's released people from
Speaker 1: prison off of minor offensive. So he does literally have
Speaker 1: a record that I can say, Hey, I'm more pro
Speaker 1: black than you. I don't understand, man. I mean I
Speaker 1: talked to Kim Kardias. This person got what what what
Speaker 1: do you want from me? What do you want? What
Speaker 1: do you want? Yeah, you know what I'm saying. So
Speaker 1: I feel like that's I feel like that's definitely that.
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, my man. Trump literally blamed
Speaker 1: coronavirus prevention on Obama. So, Bro, I was like, he's
Speaker 1: gonna blame everything about here, gonna blame original sin on Obama. Bro,
Speaker 1: like Obama was there when she ain't the fruit. So
Speaker 1: he's gonna go after He's gonna go after that angle
Speaker 1: for sure, and that's gonna work with his bass. He's
Speaker 1: gonna he's gonna go after healthcare. The fact that you know,
Speaker 1: you know health care is jack. He's gonna say, this
Speaker 1: is a Democratic convention. You guys gave me this track.
Speaker 1: I think between those, I just think Trump is so
Speaker 1: petty that he's just gonna talk about the fact that
Speaker 1: he stutters. Oh, that's just gonna be icing on the case.
Speaker 1: He's just gonna make fun of him. That's just gonna
Speaker 1: be icing on. You gotta talk about that. It's just
Speaker 1: gonna He'll call him stud during Joe, Yeah, spit it out, Joe,
Speaker 1: what do you I can't get what what do you say?
Speaker 1: Joe Man? I can't understand Joe just on national television. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's nothing beneath him. My man was messing with Greta Thornburg.
Speaker 1: She's fourteen, fourteen years, fourteen year old son. Grown man,
Speaker 1: grown man, gonna get this work, grown man, gonna get
Speaker 1: this work. Well, we have to put some respect on
Speaker 1: Derek's name now, not gonibody unless you get normal. Tell
Speaker 1: me I don't need to know. Um. Thank you again
