Speaker 1: is out, yes, and it's getting rave reviews. So can
Speaker 1: you tell everybody, Well, first of all, you weren't really
Speaker 1: like talking about it. You were talking about the the
Speaker 1: difficulties behind it and doing everything. But just give us
Speaker 1: a quick update about the book and like what you
Speaker 1: or you want to tell them? How about how would
Speaker 1: call you every day say bitch, I quit? I'm not
Speaker 1: doing every day? Yes, you did do that. No, but
Speaker 1: just talk about the book and just like the experience
Speaker 1: now that you're on the other side of it and
Speaker 1: it's getting such a good reviews. So the book is
Speaker 1: called did Nobody Give a Shit About What Happened to
Speaker 1: Kyle Ouda? And the author's name is Mr James Hannah
Speaker 1: Ham h A N N A h A M Hannah
Speaker 1: Ham just like it sounds, uh, who was the who?
Speaker 1: He's a creative arts a creative writing teacher by profession,
Speaker 1: but who is just the nicest, most patient guy. And uh,
Speaker 1: the first day I knew he wanted to fire me
Speaker 1: and he told me that too. I tell you that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he TOLDNA tell you know, I gonna tell you. He
Speaker 1: wanted to fire me, and I felt very disappointed myself.
Speaker 1: I wanted to fire me because it just didn't feel
Speaker 1: right because I had never done it. But by day
Speaker 1: two I said, Okay, but you're gonna. If you're gonna
Speaker 1: do what, you go and do it. So I got
Speaker 1: up and I went and did it. And we started
Speaker 1: off the only rocky for maybe twenty minutes the second day,
Speaker 1: and then he was like, just pretend like you're on stage,
Speaker 1: like I said, but I can't move around. He said,
Speaker 1: we'll just go into that mindset. When he said that,
Speaker 1: it just put me on some path of oh, this
Speaker 1: is how you do it, this is how we do
Speaker 1: and it just went from He was so patient and
Speaker 1: he was ready to move on, even when some lads
Speaker 1: I couldn't get because my my tone is Southern. Carlotta Mercedes,
Speaker 1: who was the character's name, she was full to be
Speaker 1: a bit from Brooklyn from the Bronx, from from Brooklyn
Speaker 1: with a with a New York slame. I ain't got
Speaker 1: no New York slain not. I am Arkansas, Missouri all day.
Speaker 1: But he he liked in the in the movie because
Speaker 1: the character's name, I can't even think of her boy name, Dustin.
Speaker 1: Her boy name was Dustin went to jail for being
Speaker 1: at the wrong place at the wrong time, and he
Speaker 1: was nineteen. He had left the hand his five year
Speaker 1: old son, so and while being in jail, he was
Speaker 1: everything that you could imagine being done to you in jail,
Speaker 1: and the male prison was done to him. And he
Speaker 1: came out and identified as trends and uh, it just
Speaker 1: was when we got bound to him meeting the Sun,
Speaker 1: Jane said, what I brought to that part was something
Speaker 1: that he didn't even realize that in. He said, Flame,
Speaker 1: he brought a heart to that. He said, why, I said,
Speaker 1: because I have my own son, so I can only
Speaker 1: imagine what it would be like for me to be
Speaker 1: taken away from him, a dn be brought back, he said, Flame.
Speaker 1: I forgan about that when I wanted you for this,
Speaker 1: and you just brought it to life to me. So
Speaker 1: when he started, when I made him feel reassured, he
Speaker 1: got in a comfortable place and I was comfortable. But
Speaker 1: it wasn't experience. I ain't et know rush to do
Speaker 1: another one. Let me be honest. But the book is
Speaker 1: getting great reviews, and I'm telling you it's a roller
Speaker 1: coaster of emotions. The story is so good. But the wording, see,
Speaker 1: they sent us the manuscript, so I thought the wording
Speaker 1: were type of and my dumb man has went and
Speaker 1: corrected all the typos and I was speaking that the
Speaker 1: way it was supposed to be spoken, but it was
Speaker 1: in ebonics from Brooklyn. So baby, it was, it was,
Speaker 1: it is. It was the most challenging thing I've had
Speaker 1: to do in many years, including being on last stage
Speaker 1: dance and remember steps and ship with Idea for AGF
Speaker 1: because that ain't something to do on the regular either.
Speaker 1: But I like it. Um it was, but it was.
Speaker 1: It was rewarding when he's when they said it's a wrap.
Speaker 1: I felt so good that we were done. And James
Speaker 1: was like, thank you flame because he thought I was
Speaker 1: gonna come in as this diva. But I told her
Speaker 1: as many times as I need to do it, over
Speaker 1: and over and over and over, tell me I'll do it.
Speaker 1: I wanted. I wanted to be good, so it one.
Speaker 1: I think we did like forty times, the truth and
Speaker 1: the forty one time. It was the only time I
Speaker 1: felt like I really gave, he said on the forty time,
Speaker 1: and he said, that's it. I said, let me do
Speaker 1: it one like he said, it's not better that I
Speaker 1: got one more better, And I did the forty one one.
Speaker 1: They used the forty first one and it was only
Speaker 1: like four words. But girl, I couldn't get them four
Speaker 1: words to go at the same time. They wouldn't all
Speaker 1: come out at the same time. They just wouldn't. Well,
Speaker 1: I just want to say that I'm proud of you, um.
Speaker 1: And I don't know if you saw the email I
Speaker 1: sent you, UM from the publisher, so you can go
Speaker 1: ahead and listen to it, because I know you haven't
Speaker 1: heard it yet, UM, but you have a way to
Speaker 1: go listen to it now. But UM, you did an
Speaker 1: amazing job. I know it was a lot, but you
Speaker 1: got through it. And it's it's the first of many.
Speaker 1: It's the first of many. Another one. I don't say
Speaker 1: that publicly. We're not gonna block our blessings now. I ain't,
Speaker 1: but I know Rudge, I want to do it. I
Speaker 1: say I was a rugge. I just don't want to
Speaker 1: do something else because you're so stagnated on you have
Speaker 1: to sit in this little book with the aarphone zone. Girl,
Speaker 1: you can't rub your nose, you can scratch your head,
Speaker 1: uk Holly Breed, and you have to have the same
Speaker 1: energy at three thirty that you came in with a
Speaker 1: ten thirty at the out of Phoebe at one thirty.
Speaker 1: And I told you, don't Phoebe. I told you, Oh
Speaker 1: my god, it's just it was challenging. But and then
Speaker 1: here's the kicker. It wasn't my story, so it would
Speaker 1: be different. Like if I wrote my own book and
Speaker 1: I was telling my story, I had to tell somebody
Speaker 1: else's story. Yeah. So yeah, so you guys get the book.
Speaker 1: It's I think you're gonna enjoy. I want. I hope
Speaker 1: you'll like much sound of my voice. It don't sound
Speaker 1: like this because this voice is another voice. I won't
Speaker 1: I didn't wait. I feel like yeah. So that was great.
Speaker 1: So y'all get the book. Please. You can download the
Speaker 1: audio and hit my voice and whoo, and you're right.
Speaker 1: Only I think it's a it's getting all kind of
Speaker 1: good write ups and everything about the righting. You got
Speaker 1: a good write up in the New York Times too,
Speaker 1: because I honestly the book is a New York Times
Speaker 1: bestseller too, so it was a good project for you
Speaker 1: to be a part of. So we have to officially
Speaker 1: get into the news the Queen's funerals, uh, because I
Speaker 1: have to say funerals because it's several days of morning,
Speaker 1: so I feel like there's just multiple funerals happening. Um,
Speaker 1: But they officially started today, officially start to there maybe
Speaker 1: this day three child. I don't know. I just know
Speaker 1: that her formal funeral happened today. Um. I am happy
Speaker 1: to see. I would say that Prince Harry and Meghan
Speaker 1: were there. I don't know if you've seen, there's a
Speaker 1: viral video of Megan just taking the time to talk
Speaker 1: to this um teenage girl and just offer her such
Speaker 1: nice words, and she hugged her. And I just thought
Speaker 1: about you when I saw her hugging that little girl,
Speaker 1: and I said, oh, flame you talking about monkey pots
Speaker 1: and everything else. I chuckled a little bit. But I'm
Speaker 1: happy to see that Prince Harry and Meghan are you know,
Speaker 1: went to go pay their respects. I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: know what's happening behind the scenes, but they have said
Speaker 1: publicly that they love the queen so dearly, and it
Speaker 1: looks like the royal family came together, so that's always
Speaker 1: a beautiful thing. Um. But yeah, her um days of
Speaker 1: events have officially commenced for her burial. So I love
Speaker 1: all the pomp and circumstances and all the grandeur of
Speaker 1: it all. And I know everybody got the mixed feelings
Speaker 1: about the queen, but I love the way that the
Speaker 1: Brits have come out and all these dignitaries have flown
Speaker 1: in from everywhere, including our President, to you know, to
Speaker 1: witness that you know, and and pay respect to this
Speaker 1: because she was a queen, she was part of a monarchy.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I love the people have landed up for
Speaker 1: weeks and weeks and weeks. But girl, let me tell
Speaker 1: you something on the flip side of it, and let
Speaker 1: me talk about it. Let me just let me just
Speaker 1: say it. I hope it ain't too soon, but this
Speaker 1: is laughing. Let me tell you something, baby. Every since
Speaker 1: Harry Brawn seeds to say, the Queen was determined not
Speaker 1: to let King Charles be the king because she knew
Speaker 1: his asks, what he wasn't ready for, He just can't
Speaker 1: handle it. She knew he was sud up very since
Speaker 1: he made a woman that was two years old and
Speaker 1: then his mama, you know, Kamil about two or three
Speaker 1: years older than Queen Lizabeth Real talk baby every since.
Speaker 1: It's because she was gonna live. She was like, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna live, live, live you, I'm outlive you. But you
Speaker 1: know who do monkey wrench in the game. Was that
Speaker 1: black girl magic? Because every since Harry Broh Megan Home
Speaker 1: McQueen Lizabeth Health has not been the same. Go back
Speaker 1: and do your research every since he brought home. But
Speaker 1: I think the first thing she got a cold, Then
Speaker 1: when he said he was in love with and she
Speaker 1: got the sniffles. Then when they said he wanted to
Speaker 1: marry a baby, she was I think she had caught dumonia.
Speaker 1: Baby they had a baby. Prince Phillips say, I'm out
Speaker 1: of here. Let me just leave you because I know
Speaker 1: the she about to get sucked up? Baby. How health
Speaker 1: they'd been to say every since Harry Brother Megan Home,
Speaker 1: I don't know what that is, but that black girl
Speaker 1: magic is real. But it's just crazy to me though,
Speaker 1: because people were I remember when Megan you know, became
Speaker 1: the Duke of Sussex using the Duchess of Sussex. Everybody
Speaker 1: was like, oh, we got our first black princess, and
Speaker 1: I was like, no, the first black queen was Charlotte.
Speaker 1: Shoot Um Bridgeta in that series is based off of
Speaker 1: Queen Charlotte. She was a real person in the monarchy,
Speaker 1: so she ain't the first. You know, people forget it,
Speaker 1: you know, our history and everything. But chi, it's um,
Speaker 1: it's just crazy times. I hope that they that Megan
Speaker 1: is doing okay and they get all the healing and
Speaker 1: stuff that they need to because Wolf the drama within
Speaker 1: that family. Because I told you too. I know we
Speaker 1: talked about this, uh um two episodes ago at this point.
Speaker 1: But it's just also interesting to hear how many people
Speaker 1: are not upset that she's passed. Have you been seen that.
Speaker 1: I've seen that, But I out of respect, Lauren, and
Speaker 1: you know, I just talk ill of the dead, and
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to. I'm just well, no, that's not true,
Speaker 1: because I've talked about the folks all the time, but
Speaker 1: just just her legacy of who she was was in
Speaker 1: the minor I for Britain for the UK, and I
Speaker 1: probably end up gonna end up living in the UK
Speaker 1: one day, so uh yeah, yeah, are you trying to
Speaker 1: protect your potential citizenship. I'm trying to if y'all put
Speaker 1: what's his name making, I'm trying to get the hell
Speaker 1: out of here, y'all have this one mm because I
Speaker 1: don't know what y'all doing over there. Y'all get Majorie
Speaker 1: Taylor Green and kicking folks. Did you see Molly Taylor
Speaker 1: Green kick to damn reporter or either the news lady?
Speaker 1: See anything? I haven't, um, I need to watch some MSNBC.
Speaker 1: I didn't watched my news like I normally happen. They just,
Speaker 1: you know, they just letting them get away with too much.
Speaker 1: Look look at look at what abb did. Look at
Speaker 1: what the science is here, Lord, look at what they did. Well,
Speaker 1: let's get into it. Then let's talk about them too.
Speaker 1: So this week, Greg no, I mean he's been doing
Speaker 1: this for a while, but the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott,
Speaker 1: has been busting migrants to like New York City and
Speaker 1: to Washington, d C. His justification is, all those are
Speaker 1: sanctuary states, get out of Texas. But this week he
Speaker 1: sent two buses to Kamala Harris's home in d C.
Speaker 1: If that's not the pettiest of the pettiest thing I've
Speaker 1: ever seen, Like you sent two migrant busses to Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris's front steps. So you tell me a governor of
Speaker 1: one state was able to send two migrant busses to
Speaker 1: the Vice President of the United States and nothing happened
Speaker 1: to him. No, nothing happened to him. Okay, So he
Speaker 1: was white and she was black. Oh yeah, okay, I
Speaker 1: get Oh, I get it. I'm just making I heard
Speaker 1: the whole story because had I been that, had that
Speaker 1: been me, out of went real petty and pulled the
Speaker 1: help on her on his sad, I would have said
Speaker 1: about fifty air pumps to his house and about fifty
Speaker 1: flat weird flat tire wheelchairs and say get the pumping
Speaker 1: pimping because you know, you know, so it's yeah that
Speaker 1: he should be sent to jail for that. What if
Speaker 1: one of those people would have hurt the Vice President
Speaker 1: of the United States? You got a point there, causing
Speaker 1: effect for sure. What if one of those migrants who
Speaker 1: had a mental illnesses or something and blamed her that
Speaker 1: they got there and didn't get anything that they were promised.
Speaker 1: See that's what I'm talking about. Yeah, that that's a
Speaker 1: crime in there, that that is a crime. And they
Speaker 1: let him get away with too much after you volus
Speaker 1: you to thought they unseated that food. You can't unsee
Speaker 1: them because he can't walk m hm. And he's not
Speaker 1: the only one. Um so, your dear de Santists from
Speaker 1: your many petty state of Florida, um his um so.
Speaker 1: Last Wednesday, Rohn de Santists facilitated two flights to carry
Speaker 1: a group of roughly fifty Venezuelan and Colombian migrants to
Speaker 1: Martha's Vineyard as part of a push by the Santists
Speaker 1: to draw attention to the border policies of President Biden.
Speaker 1: I personally think you mind has been his uh clubs
Speaker 1: should kick him out for doing some dumb ship like that.
Speaker 1: I know, you know he probably one of them country clubs.
Speaker 1: Y'all should revoke his uh his license and he can't
Speaker 1: come back in anymore for doing some dumb ship. And
Speaker 1: they're getting very bold, they're getting and I'm telling you,
Speaker 1: I hope as American people we are paying very close
Speaker 1: attention to the things that they are doing because these
Speaker 1: things were unheard of five years ago. Well this is
Speaker 1: the t SO and I'm reading political so they're saying
Speaker 1: though that the move by the Santis by him doing
Speaker 1: this dominated the radio and television airwaves in South Florida,
Speaker 1: where large UM groups of Hispanic voters live. UM One
Speaker 1: Spanish radio host loudly denounced the move and even compared
Speaker 1: to Santis' actions to that of deceased Cuban dictator for
Speaker 1: del Castro, who relocated Cubans in the early sixties. So
Speaker 1: they're basically now saying that, um, this could possibly really
Speaker 1: hurt him come November based on him doing this. UM
Speaker 1: and then the Democrat Charlie Chris, who has actually gotten
Speaker 1: some Republican support from the other side, and he's a
Speaker 1: Democrat because Charlie himself as a former Republican UM. So
Speaker 1: Charlie Chris, who is challenging the Santis, on Saturday, rushed
Speaker 1: out a new digital ad targeting Hispanics in the Venezuelan community.
Speaker 1: Um as basically as a part of a six figure
Speaker 1: by pounding descentis over his attention getting moved. So basically,
Speaker 1: him doing this is creating some backlash, which you know,
Speaker 1: I love that, but yeah, it's it's crazy what somebody's
Speaker 1: GOP representatives were doing at this point in time. It's
Speaker 1: almost like they forget that these are actual humans. The
Speaker 1: scientist to me is like the old adage that black
Speaker 1: people used to say when I was a kid, Give
Speaker 1: a nigg enough rope, hang yourself. He's trying so hard
Speaker 1: to do so much damage. He forget that he was
Speaker 1: standing in his own way. He's gonna damage his own self.
Speaker 1: There's just been so many underhanded things though that he's done,
Speaker 1: and that Greg Abbott is done and it's just gone unpunished. Um,
Speaker 1: And it's just I think UM. For me personally, I
Speaker 1: just get fed up with the double standards. Sometimes it's
Speaker 1: like what else do you expect? You know, sure it's
Speaker 1: been happening, but it's just crazy, the double standard of
Speaker 1: what somebody's boy, um, white boys in Congress get away
Speaker 1: with at this point in time. And there it is
Speaker 1: right there on what they get away with because they
Speaker 1: ain't like y'all don't see him doing it. They can
Speaker 1: look a job with the cookie the name out. I
Speaker 1: ain't handle cookie. That was the lamb chap. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: sure he is, because they'll blinded TB won the honey. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And I guess what they're saying makes it so bad too.
Speaker 1: They're saying, you know, Florida Republicans in recent years have
Speaker 1: made it a priority to court Venezuelan Americans. Um, you
Speaker 1: know a lot of them who have fled their homes
Speaker 1: because you know, then Venezuelans are like and I'm sorry
Speaker 1: I have to say this publicly, but Venezuelans are like
Speaker 1: those white Spaniards, who they're not. They're not your typical Hispanics.
Speaker 1: If you talk to you know, people of the like
Speaker 1: the Hispanic and Latino community, Um, they're considered like Spaniards.
Speaker 1: So they're like the creme della creme. So I think
Speaker 1: that's what's making it so bad that he chose Venezuelan
Speaker 1: migrants to do this too. I really think that's the
Speaker 1: core of why he's getting all this backlash because those
Speaker 1: are like the white folks in Spain or in um
Speaker 1: Trump so down in Florida, there was a whole big
Speaker 1: old thing honey Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, tru Trump das. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so they're saying, like the Venezuelans and Cubans, those are
Speaker 1: like the core block of support for GOP and Florida.
Speaker 1: So and he's that's what he's messing with. So this
Speaker 1: is going to be one of the most interesting races.
Speaker 1: And not because we're gonna worry about people coming out.
Speaker 1: I'm worried about the vote, the tallies. I'm worried about
Speaker 1: the way they're going to do the voting. It's been
Speaker 1: so many lies and so many trickery. Is on the
Speaker 1: machines and this this conspiracy and that conspiracy. You know,
Speaker 1: we're gonna is it true? Is it a lie? You know,
Speaker 1: because I don't know what to believe at this point.
Speaker 1: That's not how I feel. I wonder how many other
Speaker 1: Americans actually feel like that. I think a lot of
Speaker 1: people feel like that. I'm concerned about, you know, the
Speaker 1: accuracy behind it. In certain you know, swing states, they're
Speaker 1: saying that people are afraid to um actually work the
Speaker 1: polls because of all of the backlash that they received
Speaker 1: around the presidential election and the death threats that happened
Speaker 1: because of Trump and all his conspiracy theorists, and then
Speaker 1: you had January six happened. So I just hope that
Speaker 1: we have integral election coal workers this time, because who
Speaker 1: knows who's going to happen. Yeah, it's a crazy time.
Speaker 1: I told you guy, that's girl queen thisnet was. I
Speaker 1: saw that crown. I was like, oh, I just want
Speaker 1: to put it on my head. It was beautiful and
Speaker 1: other news we got to talk about. UM, it's honestly
Speaker 1: tragic news. UM. Definitely need to send prayers to Puerto
Speaker 1: Rico because it's a year later and they're experiencing yet
Speaker 1: another natural disaster. Their their power is completely off. The
Speaker 1: entire island has no power and this and this one
Speaker 1: is worse than that. That's when they had it like
Speaker 1: three years ago. Well there's been Ida, there's been Maria,
Speaker 1: and now they got Fiona, So it's just like they
Speaker 1: can't catch a break. The thing that bothers me, though,
Speaker 1: is go ahead, ain't from now? Where you where you
Speaker 1: call up with the name of a storm from? Well,
Speaker 1: I think that. I think it's hurricanes have female names
Speaker 1: and tornadoes have male names, I think. And they just
Speaker 1: keep going through the alphel that it was the first
Speaker 1: person who spotted it. That's what they named it after.
Speaker 1: Who told you that? I was a kid, don't worry.
Speaker 1: They also told me that Santa Claus was real, and
Speaker 1: he wasn't real. He wasn't bringing shit in and he
Speaker 1: was taking some out, but he wasn't read name. I
Speaker 1: was like, who told you that? But I'm more so
Speaker 1: I'm just so sad for them because I'm like, it's
Speaker 1: been back to back um hurricanes at this point, and
Speaker 1: it's like, where's the preparedness and and this it's sounds
Speaker 1: like this where you really see where Puerto Rico is
Speaker 1: treated like, you know, the step child of the United
Speaker 1: States because people in Puerto Rico, you know, they can't
Speaker 1: vote in elections, you know that right, because they're they're
Speaker 1: o the United States, but they're not technically considered citizens,
Speaker 1: so they're not allowed to vote. So it's just like,
Speaker 1: here's another example of Puerto Rico being you know, treated
Speaker 1: like the step child. And I think it's it's just
Speaker 1: so wrong. I mean, I saw that Joe Biden declared,
Speaker 1: you know, the state of emergency for Puerto Rico and everything.
Speaker 1: So I am happy that we have at least a
Speaker 1: decent president that I think will do the right thing
Speaker 1: and he won't be like Trump in the you can't
Speaker 1: throw paper towels and people's faces. But it's just it's
Speaker 1: like how many times we know it's hurricane season. Hurricane
Speaker 1: season always happens between I think it's like March and October,
Speaker 1: it's hurricane season down there, and no matter what it's
Speaker 1: like they're just never prepared and we're always being reactionary
Speaker 1: and these people have to suffer tremendously educated on that
Speaker 1: thing and they can't vote. So if you CITI in
Speaker 1: this country, unfortunately, I'm sad, and it's very sad to
Speaker 1: say you are discarded and that's how they treat you,
Speaker 1: like you're just nothing. Yeah, I'm trying to I'm the
Speaker 1: name is escaping me. Um, they're they're not considered like
Speaker 1: a state there. Um, child, that's gonna bother me. I'll
Speaker 1: come back to it when it pops in my brain. Um,
Speaker 1: They're almost like, we lost Jesse Pole Power this week.
Speaker 1: I knew Jesse Powell, the singer Baby It's you. He
Speaker 1: used to come to the clubs in Chicago when I
Speaker 1: was a kid because he was from Gary, indienda. He
Speaker 1: used to come to the shows I used to host
Speaker 1: the clubs. Yeah, I saw that we lost him. And
Speaker 1: I think his sister passed two, right, I didn't know
Speaker 1: that part, but I knew he passed and I'm like wow.
Speaker 1: And he was a little bitty guy too. He was
Speaker 1: the nicest little boy too. He's just a girl. That
Speaker 1: made me feel like a dinosaur. Like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I knew all these kids, and he was young. I
Speaker 1: was young too. I just always had an old spirit
Speaker 1: and a lot of mouth. Could you imagine me, you
Speaker 1: have a lot of mouth? No? Yes, And he passed on.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think they have an attribute for David.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I've seen the thing. I would like
Speaker 1: to go because he was a comedian. I didn't know David.
Speaker 1: He was a cool guy, he was a great writer.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I love that they acknowledged him during
Speaker 1: the Emmy memorial. They yeah, And I think, and I
Speaker 1: don't know. Did we talk about the Emmys? We have
Speaker 1: to congratulate Shirley Ralph. We talked aboutulation, We talked uh,
Speaker 1: we talked about her hair, her fashion, all that. Yeah
Speaker 1: question huh did we recorded? Oh yeah, I was gonna
Speaker 1: say so we really quickly we can publicly say here,
Speaker 1: congratulations to Shirley Ralph, Um, Zendaya, Kina Bronson. There was
Speaker 1: it was a lot of black girl magic at the Emmy's. UM.
Speaker 1: I didn't love what Jimmy Kimmel did. I would say,
Speaker 1: but you know what, Lauren, Jimmy Kimmel did that skin move.
Speaker 1: It didn't take another quin and she went on there.
Speaker 1: He apologized and she said, I was having a good time,
Speaker 1: so she was mad. So I don't think that we
Speaker 1: should be mad. Yeah, I mean, it's it's not about that,
Speaker 1: it's just, uh, he should have known better. And I
Speaker 1: do the fact that the apologize he was gonna be
Speaker 1: funny and it just wasn't. It just tanked. And at
Speaker 1: the point when instead of him just getting up and
Speaker 1: walking off with which would have brought more attention, I
Speaker 1: think because it just didn't work. I don't know what
Speaker 1: they were trying to do, but whatever it was, and
Speaker 1: they were out there before they even called her, it
Speaker 1: just didn't work. The joke just that kind of like
Speaker 1: when Kethy Griffin had the Trumper hit the beheading of Trump.
Speaker 1: It just didn't work. M Yeah. But like I said,
Speaker 1: he apologized to her, which I think was beautiful. Love that,
Speaker 1: but um, it was a that means. I was happy
Speaker 1: to watch the MS this year and I think he
Speaker 1: Thompson did a good job. Oh yeah, he was the same.
Speaker 1: He was the safe man. Shirley speech was prolific. MS.
Speaker 1: Shirley went out there and and I know I know Shirley,
Speaker 1: I know where she could go in and I know
Speaker 1: when this is phony as the three dollar building, I
Speaker 1: know when this is real as rain. She started off
Speaker 1: a little shaky, but the truth was in those words
Speaker 1: about never giving up. That I know the truth in
Speaker 1: hand that because I know her personally, so yeah, and
Speaker 1: I know what that meant to her. But I had
Speaker 1: told her in February her is gonna win for that role.
Speaker 1: I've been told. Soon she started whining shows she was
Speaker 1: gonna win. And I told him that when I saw
Speaker 1: every the other mentory, which is really a good show, y'all,
Speaker 1: it really is a good show, I knew she was
Speaker 1: gonna win. I told her that you called me and
Speaker 1: said you called it. You know her come. I love
Speaker 1: my family. I let those people, but I so I
Speaker 1: knew what that boy was sunny now that was my
Speaker 1: Yeah when we talked about the fashion. Yeah, So overall,
Speaker 1: the like I said, I'm just very proud that Emmy's
Speaker 1: did a good job for sure this year, m aside
Speaker 1: from like I said, the little Jimmy Kimbel thing. But
Speaker 1: we lost a lot of people. Um, whenever I see
Speaker 1: in memoriam tributes and during award shows, it's always like
Speaker 1: bath from like, wow, we've lost so many people with
Speaker 1: just within a year, you know what I mean. So
Speaker 1: it's sad to see, but I always um like when
Speaker 1: they're honored and you you have those good memories of
Speaker 1: those amazing entertainers and artists that you know made you
Speaker 1: feel good at one point in your life. So tomorrow
Speaker 1: is not promising you. That's what you gotta each day,
Speaker 1: like it's your lands, that's what they say. I definitely
Speaker 1: hope lad a good guy because I'm over here in
Speaker 1: the crisis. We're going to talk about that. Three kids,
Speaker 1: So it's always a crisis for sure, you've got three kids.
Speaker 1: The crisis is that better step up on my pullout game.
Speaker 1: Speaking of my pullout game, let me talk about my
Speaker 1: pull in game. We have a new show. When I
Speaker 1: got a new show, so weindsday we started new show.
Speaker 1: It's called Free Voices and it's that the Hollywood laugh
Speaker 1: actor each and every Wednesday, ladies and gentlemen, it's eight
Speaker 1: o'clock time, and it's actually a variety show. Singers, magician, uh,
Speaker 1: spoken words, monologue, dialogue, but definitely kind MEETI and Uh.
Speaker 1: We were not going to have it last week and
Speaker 1: then I went down there just to see what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: and then we ended up having and it came out
Speaker 1: to be wildly successful. So I'd like for you guys
Speaker 1: to come to support the show. It was really good.
Speaker 1: Everybody seemed to have a great time, and Jamie Massida,
Speaker 1: the owner, thank you. Jamie just called me the next
Speaker 1: day with so much love. So I'm like, Okay, let's
Speaker 1: do it. So we're hoping that we make this grow.

Speaker 1: so I will be there on Wednesday to support you. UM.
Speaker 1: I definitely say thank you to Jamie for you know,
Speaker 1: allowing you the space to do this, because I think
Speaker 1: that's one thing that you really do so well, Flamed,
Speaker 1: is that you give other artists the space to exhibit
Speaker 1: their talent, and everybody doesn't do that. So I think
Speaker 1: that this show is gonna be um great for that
Speaker 1: and it may end up opening up doors for a
Speaker 1: lot of people to some underscult Come on for the oscars,
Speaker 1: Amy's Grammys tongs. I'm ready. Oh don't you got that

Speaker 1: I know, those old memory pictures popped up and that's
Speaker 1: just something that she was here when I was in Pleasanton, Baby,
