Speaker 1: Native lampod is a production of iHeartRadio in partnership with
Speaker 1: Reason Choice Media.
Speaker 2: Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, Welcome.
Speaker 3: Home, y'all.
Speaker 1: This is this week's mini pod. We have a continuation
Speaker 1: of our conversation. We started talking about what happened the
Speaker 1: fallout with Chili, their likes on social her shares, reposts,
Speaker 1: her politics perhaps, and we also had a conversation about
Speaker 1: Nick Cannon's car ride with Amber Rose. Of course, these
Speaker 1: are just the latest examples of people who are in
Speaker 1: the public eye who support Donald Trump, or at least
Speaker 1: appear to.
Speaker 3: I think the question I would like for us.
Speaker 1: To focus on on this part of the show is,
Speaker 1: you know, what is the barometer for how people get
Speaker 1: held accountable? Can they come back? If they can come back,
Speaker 1: how do they come back? And really how we hold
Speaker 1: ourselves accountable for the hypocrisy that exists. And you know,
Speaker 1: the folks who drive tesla's, or the folks who use X,
Speaker 1: some of us who still pay for you know, to
Speaker 1: make sure that we keep a blue check because we
Speaker 1: think in some way that means they won't hack into
Speaker 1: our accounts or whatever.
Speaker 3: Our justifications might be.
Speaker 1: Those of us who use or overrely on Meta who
Speaker 1: still have iPhones. These are all of the companies and
Speaker 1: I'm just named some who have compromised on DEI who
Speaker 1: have donated to Donald Trump. Some folks are still watching CBS.
Speaker 1: We use CBS clips on here. We know that the
Speaker 1: Ellisons are diehard Trump supporters. And now, of course TikTok.
Speaker 1: So where do we draw the line?
Speaker 4: Y'all?
Speaker 1: Right, that's the question I really have, And I don't
Speaker 1: have the answer here. I'm not calling people out for
Speaker 1: hypocrisy's sake. I'm telling you what I'm using as well, right,
Speaker 1: So I'd love to have this conversation and figure out
Speaker 1: how we draw the line.
Speaker 3: Where do we draw the line?
Speaker 4: Can I layter on?
Speaker 5: Just so just another example? Yes, So take for instance
Speaker 5: Target and Walmart. Walton's big Republican donors probably have done
Speaker 5: more damage than we could name through their political contributions
Speaker 5: to the hard right and Mitch McConnell and his high
Speaker 5: way robbery of Supreme Court justice seats, which again we're
Speaker 5: filling the effects of and will continue to for the
Speaker 5: next twenty thirty forty years. But when we launched a
Speaker 5: strike on Target, a lot of folks were saying, well,
Speaker 5: why not Walmart two? And I was rationalizing in my head,
Speaker 5: and again this is a rationalization. I kept thinking my
Speaker 5: trust level had gone respecting trust level had accelerated for
Speaker 5: Target during this sort of awakening we experience after the
Speaker 5: death of George Floyd.
Speaker 4: And I was really proud to.
Speaker 5: Spend a little bit more money with them than some
Speaker 5: of their competitors. And so when their wholesale abandonment it
Speaker 5: felt like came down through the shifts following the Trump
Speaker 5: administration's demands, with no defense for the actions they had taken,
Speaker 5: right just just to flat out like okay, we're done
Speaker 5: with this next move on. It felt like a betrayal.
Speaker 5: And so even though I know that the Waltons give
Speaker 5: in that their money impacts us in harmful ways. For me,
Speaker 5: I spend less set Target than I do probably a
Speaker 5: lot of other places. I have withdrew all of my
Speaker 5: resources from there, and having walked back in the door
Speaker 5: since it's been announced and have no plans to that.
Speaker 4: Was a betrayal that felt very.
Speaker 5: Personal, and I felt a little stupid by it because
Speaker 5: I believed and so I don't know how we I
Speaker 5: think in some ways some of the artists that you
Speaker 5: mentioned have that same kind of an effect.
Speaker 4: It's like, okay, cool, so long as.
Speaker 5: You're singing in and I don't know about your political leanings,
Speaker 5: and this is that, and third and what you're doing,
Speaker 5: how you vote or if you vote, that kind of thing.
Speaker 5: But then when it comes into focus and now I
Speaker 5: see that, no, this isn't like a passing phase, like
Speaker 5: this is what you believe, who you are. It then
Speaker 5: affects me like a betrayal. And so even though other
Speaker 5: artists may you know the guy we jelly roll or
Speaker 5: whoever you know play, I ain't never bought his stuff,
Speaker 5: but if he comes in the radio sounds good, I
Speaker 5: might listen and so on. But if they do, I'm
Speaker 5: gonna change the station. I'm going to do what I
Speaker 5: can to avoid them. I'm going to whatever, because there's
Speaker 5: a hurt feeling there, so I don't It doesn't completely
Speaker 5: answer your question, Angela, but I do wonder like, Okay, yeah,
Speaker 5: there are a lot of people who harmful things, But
Speaker 5: the thing that then drives me to action is the letdown,
Speaker 5: the betrayal, because I had an expectation to begin with.
Speaker 4: I think I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I think some of this is that people do I
Speaker 2: think two things are true.
Speaker 6: One is that it's often used as an excuse, right,
Speaker 6: that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. But I
Speaker 6: also think that that is a painful thing to admit
Speaker 6: because we want to be altruistic. People want to stand
Speaker 6: for something, We want to believe in something, and yet
Speaker 6: some of the most ubiquitous items in our lives are compromised, right.
Speaker 6: And it's very difficult unless you were going to go
Speaker 6: live completely off the grid and become a hermit, to
Speaker 6: not engage with a company that has donated or worked
Speaker 6: against your interests. And so I think that what people
Speaker 6: then do is they try to at least have something
Speaker 6: that they can stand for.
Speaker 7: Right.
Speaker 6: So if I can't stand against all of it, I mean,
Speaker 6: this is going to air on YouTube, right. Google is compromised, right,
Speaker 6: And yet especially with these platforms, I don't want YouTube
Speaker 6: to be without voices like yours, right. I think it's
Speaker 6: I left X very early on. I got my blue
Speaker 6: check back. I never paid for it, but they put
Speaker 6: it back and I had nothing to do with that.
Speaker 2: I just want to be very clear.
Speaker 6: But like I locked my account, the bio says I'm
Speaker 6: not here, and we see what's happened to that platform.
Speaker 6: It is not a place for any kind of reliable
Speaker 6: news conversation information, in part because of a great part
Speaker 6: because the algorithm intentionally ruined the ability for people like
Speaker 6: us to be heard, but also because a lot of
Speaker 6: us got off and went elsewhere, And so there's as
Speaker 6: The second piece is that there's a cost benefit analysis
Speaker 6: that I think people do, and I think that that
Speaker 6: is I think we have to understand that for people
Speaker 6: as humans, right like it is if you've got books
Speaker 6: to sell or a side hustle, were you trying to
Speaker 6: sell some merch to people. Getting off of Meta is
Speaker 6: not quite so easy when you're trying to keep food
Speaker 6: on your kids table. But you don't have to buy
Speaker 6: that concert ticket. You don't have to go to Target
Speaker 6: for that item that you can often buy in other places.
Speaker 6: I haven't been to Walmart since I was in college
Speaker 6: and was doing going to labor protests, right like, I
Speaker 6: haven't been to Walmart in a while, So we really
Speaker 6: had to rejigger when it was when it was time
Speaker 6: to say goodbye to Target. But the cost benefit analysis
Speaker 6: was that this is something I can stand for, even
Speaker 6: when I can't stand for all all of the other
Speaker 6: things and ways that my consumption is already compromised.
Speaker 1: Let me ask you, but it's true. Let me ask
Speaker 1: you this really quick. On this point. You don't have
Speaker 1: to buy that concert ticket. An author does not have
Speaker 1: to sell their books in Target or Walmart. Right, there
Speaker 1: are these, there are these other and and to Andrew's
Speaker 1: point earlier we were talking about the struggles.
Speaker 3: Don obviously is.
Speaker 1: No longer a part of in Vogue, the one who
Speaker 1: has been living out.
Speaker 3: Of her car.
Speaker 1: But there are other members of these groups in Salt
Speaker 1: and Pepa in in Vogue who don't have any like
Speaker 1: not even the t n LC. They don't have anything
Speaker 1: to do with what's happened, and they will feel the
Speaker 1: impacts of people not going to the concert. Now I've
Speaker 1: had conversations with some folks around them. Sounds like ticket
Speaker 1: sales haven't been impacted, really, like if we're just being
Speaker 1: completely honest, and so I'm just curious to know again,
Speaker 1: where do we draw the line and why? Like what
Speaker 1: what is uh?
Speaker 3: What is the line?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 3: Why is the line the concert ticket?
Speaker 1: And why is not the line going over to support
Speaker 1: spill or going over to support what's the one? Isaac
Speaker 1: Cayes has what's the one of that fan base? Like,
Speaker 1: why is the line to punish the black person? Is
Speaker 1: it because the expectations are hired for us like we were,
Speaker 1: like like Andrew talked about the disappointment with Target, Like
Speaker 1: I get.
Speaker 2: Think that's a fair question. Yeah, I will just say
Speaker 2: on the concept.
Speaker 1: So for me, for example, and I really can't have
Speaker 1: the answer, it's not a loaded when I really am
Speaker 1: curious to here, Yeah.
Speaker 6: And I don't think that. I think the hard thing
Speaker 6: here is that the answer is not standard across.
Speaker 2: The board, and we just need to go ahead and
Speaker 2: admit that.
Speaker 6: For me, I don't want to be on my Instagram
Speaker 6: shaking it at a concert that I would have very
Speaker 6: much enjoyed and then have people who look to me
Speaker 6: and my platform questioning what I'm telling them right, or
Speaker 6: questioning my loyalty or fealty to justice. And that's that's
Speaker 6: not to say that I depend on what other people
Speaker 6: think in me, but for me, that was part of
Speaker 6: the that's right that I don't want to unintentionally send
Speaker 6: a message that nobody's forcing me to send.
Speaker 3: But are we sending hard number? Car?
Speaker 1: And then I promise I want you to wait in here,
Speaker 1: because I want you to actually answer this. Are we
Speaker 1: sending that same mixed message is if where they go
Speaker 1: to find the message is on these same compromised platforms.
Speaker 3: So what I'm saying is.
Speaker 1: If where we're informing them is on a platform that
Speaker 1: has overwhelmingly supported Donald Trump monetarily he was taking off
Speaker 1: of those platforms, he was put back on those platforms,
Speaker 1: if where they can find us saying these things are
Speaker 1: on these platforms that have supported Donald Trump in a
Speaker 1: much more full throateded way than Chili or even Nick Cannon,
Speaker 1: who passively says, I asked what Trump. He sounds like
Speaker 1: he's joking.
Speaker 3: We don't know.
Speaker 1: I haven't talked to him. But let's say that that's
Speaker 1: the case. Are we complicit in that point at that point?
Speaker 2: B Yeah, I mean, and.
Speaker 6: I think that there's a difference in locus of control.
Speaker 6: Go ahead the other beat.
Speaker 3: You sound like my mama. My mama says locus of control,
Speaker 3: go ahead.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I just think we're thinking too small.
Speaker 7: And the reason being is because I'm not going to
Speaker 7: indict Britney Pacneck Cunningham and her life's long work for
Speaker 7: torking at a TLC concert.
Speaker 4: I'm just not the exception. You're not You're the exception.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm not because I don't because I'm not going to.
Speaker 4: I don't look. I don't look at people for an action.
Speaker 7: I look at people for their habits, right, I don't
Speaker 7: judge people off of one failure. If you make those
Speaker 7: failures habit, then we have an issue. I'm on Twitter
Speaker 7: because I feel like there has to be voices there
Speaker 7: like mine. I'm on Twitter because of course I sell
Speaker 7: books there. I actually got the eight dollar trade what
Speaker 7: you call it, because I was afraid that without double
Speaker 7: authentication that I would be compromised and hacked.
Speaker 4: Does that make.
Speaker 7: Yeah? I mean I was like, look they giving away,
Speaker 7: you got to pay eight dollars a month for the authentication.
Speaker 7: I know who Elon Musk is, I know how dangerous
Speaker 7: he is. That doesn't mean that I'm not out here
Speaker 7: talking about Uh. The fact that I believe Elon Musk
Speaker 7: to be the epitome of what a white supremacist is
Speaker 7: that his worldview is rooted in racism, right, that that's
Speaker 7: how he was born, It's a culture that he's he is.
Speaker 7: He literally imported more racism to this country than you
Speaker 7: can probably imagine, right.
Speaker 4: And so, but I don't think that.
Speaker 7: I don't think that you can conclude that I'm something
Speaker 7: else because I have an eight dollar subscription to Twitter,
Speaker 7: and I know that people do those things and I
Speaker 7: disregard them. Went to Breezy Ball, I mean I did.
Speaker 7: I thought it was one of the greatest concerts I've
Speaker 7: ever been.
Speaker 1: To me about the slide, Chris Brown, Yeah, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: well that happens some people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I did, but I like this moment.
Speaker 7: Let's like I own it. I own it, and I'm like, so,
Speaker 7: I mean, I'm not gonna tell you who I was
Speaker 7: there with, but.
Speaker 3: Do you still listen to her Kelly?
Speaker 4: No, well no I don't. I don't consciously on the occasion,
Speaker 4: but like.
Speaker 7: If somebody plays, I believe I can fly at an
Speaker 7: elementary school program.
Speaker 6: I'm not down elementary for.
Speaker 3: The national anthem.
Speaker 4: I stayed for the national anthem.
Speaker 2: I haven't. But this is what I mean about personal.
Speaker 4: But it is it is.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, yeah, I know, man, I know so
Speaker 7: many black folks right now that are dying for this
Speaker 7: country is as bad as this country treats us. And
Speaker 7: I think that I think what I'm saying saying is
Speaker 7: that black folk have a uniquely toxic relationship.
Speaker 4: With this country.
Speaker 7: That it's very difficult for us to begin to nitpick
Speaker 7: the toxicity that we're having to deal with today, and
Speaker 7: we start we started saying, oh my god, this person
Speaker 7: did ex toxic, and then we discount all the good
Speaker 7: work that they've done. I think Charlemagne the God is
Speaker 7: one of the best examples of that, because he is
Speaker 7: one of the culturally most complicated people I know, and
Speaker 7: his intellectual curiosity, for example, it drives people wild sometimes
Speaker 7: because he asked questions, and there are people who literally
Speaker 7: will discount him not knowing the work that he does
Speaker 7: in South Carolina, not knowing all of those things. Now,
Speaker 7: I don't think he cares a whole lot, but that
Speaker 7: is just that's like one example.
Speaker 3: And I don't like that you said toxic in the
Speaker 3: same citizens that isn't my brother. I don't like that.
Speaker 7: I wasn't calling him toxic by any stretch. But no,
Speaker 7: he's one of my best friends in the world, but
Speaker 7: not by any stretch. But what I am saying is
Speaker 7: people will discount him because they don't like the intellectual
Speaker 7: curiosity that he puts out there or they don't like.
Speaker 1: People don't even call it intellectual. They won't even they
Speaker 1: won't even say that, and that's unfortunate.
Speaker 5: Get but I don't believe anybody of the responsibility that
Speaker 5: you But I'm saying we do.
Speaker 7: We throw the baby out with the bath water too much,
Speaker 7: That's what I'm saying. And I'm saying that people in
Speaker 7: particular are more complicated. And if Britney wants to dance
Speaker 7: to TLC as much as we dislike Chili, she should
Speaker 7: be able to do that and people will still understand
Speaker 7: the work that Brittany Pagnet Cuttingham has done because we're
Speaker 7: not intellectually like small.
Speaker 3: I don't like, I don't discide Chili.
Speaker 1: I'm confused about what she's doing, and I want to
Speaker 1: hear from her in earnest and I don't feel like
Speaker 1: I've had that opportunity.
Speaker 6: It might have been different if she hadn't lied to us.
Speaker 6: I'm not even gonna hold you like I might have
Speaker 6: had a different response.
Speaker 3: I might not say she was afraid.
Speaker 6: Probably, And here's the thing with Kury, I think that
Speaker 6: you're right that black people absolutely have a toxic relationship
Speaker 6: with this country. It's part of the reason why when
Speaker 6: foreigners jump into our our countries convers political conversations right now,
Speaker 6: black people would be like, I don't countess in that right,
Speaker 6: and I'm still not going.
Speaker 2: To breeze ball.
Speaker 6: Some of that has to do with my own personal
Speaker 6: life experiences and the fact that I actually will not
Speaker 6: feel physically good in my body standing in there, right.
Speaker 2: And so I think that you're right.
Speaker 6: We cannot dismiss all a person does if they make
Speaker 6: a mistake, just like we can't dismiss all a person
Speaker 6: does if they engage in something that we personally wouldn't.
Speaker 2: And I do think that.
Speaker 6: It's dangerous that society has moved to a place sometimes
Speaker 6: it's primarily online, but the society has moved to a
Speaker 6: place where it's that easy to dismiss people, and we're
Speaker 6: not willing to restore to be curious, to ask questions,
Speaker 6: to think broadly and longitudinally about somebody's contributions.
Speaker 2: But I also think that when people.
Speaker 6: Are hurt by the choices we make, it is right
Speaker 6: and community minded to consider their feelings, even if it's
Speaker 6: not going to change your actions.
Speaker 7: And I will say I will say that, and to
Speaker 7: that is because I believe it to be the same
Speaker 7: side of the coin is that we expect grace without
Speaker 7: extending it to others. And I don't believe any of
Speaker 7: the four of us or anybody listening to this is
Speaker 7: the shepherd to the grace that I deserve or the
Speaker 7: grace that I can give. And I think that a
Speaker 7: lot of times we try to own that principle and
Speaker 7: we just we we hored grace like it's something that's
Speaker 7: bestowed upon us by you know, like we're we're the
Speaker 7: creators of it, when we're not. Grace is given by
Speaker 7: God and we It's just that is what makes me
Speaker 7: a little fickle about this conversation.
Speaker 5: I wish try of us actually gave ourselves grace, because
Speaker 5: I would argue, amongst the four of us, I would
Speaker 5: argue this about your grace deficit that you start by
Speaker 5: to yourself, and that it is it is that it
Speaker 5: happens that you're given in spades for others. I mean,
Speaker 5: I used to say along the trail, how often that
Speaker 5: nobody should be judged forever by their worst day. And
Speaker 5: those are my words, those were my feelings. It was
Speaker 5: a way I could scincly express that while there may
Speaker 5: be consequences for the thing that you doing, the choice
Speaker 5: that you made. There shouldn't be a lifetime judgment made
Speaker 5: of you for that thing. And I think I feel
Speaker 5: the same way about all of these other intervals of
Speaker 5: accountability that get to be had.
Speaker 4: I love my children more than I love my own life.
Speaker 4: That feels like some days.
Speaker 5: But guess what, Jackson, I saw that you did bad
Speaker 5: and poorly on that thing, And did you push your
Speaker 5: best into it? No?
Speaker 4: You didn't.
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, that thing you love, that tablet is coming
Speaker 5: with me today and you won't see it again until
Speaker 5: this weekend.
Speaker 4: And he's gonna have.
Speaker 5: An attitute, and he's may cry and go in the corner.
Speaker 5: And da da da da doesn't mean I love you
Speaker 5: any lesson. In fact, you ought to worry when I
Speaker 5: don't take it from you, that's when you ought to
Speaker 5: be at concern. So we do these things largely as
Speaker 5: an I feel like an outflow because we had expectation,
Speaker 5: because we had hopes, because we felt a type of way.
Speaker 5: And now that you have now corroded that, I mean,
Speaker 5: people sending out there like you is broken my heart.
Speaker 5: And I've been six issue lost that race and I'm thinking,
Speaker 5: do you think I have been enjoy and its celebration?
Speaker 5: And you know no, In fact, I feel very heavy
Speaker 5: every day because I feel like I couldn't deliver for you.
Speaker 5: And I know what the concert. I knew clearly what
Speaker 5: the constant.
Speaker 3: Now the people didn't deliver for you.
Speaker 5: However you say it, it is still the way I
Speaker 5: embodied and embodied it as godly.
Speaker 4: I couldn't bring it home, right, And so you telling me.
Speaker 5: How bad you feel, like, I promise you you won't
Speaker 5: have it worse than me. The worst voice I will
Speaker 5: ever hear will be the one of my own and
Speaker 5: not anybody, right, So I just think the reason why
Speaker 5: we respond and and Brittany, you said this early on
Speaker 5: in our conversation, it's sort of this issue or this
Speaker 5: question of what we have, what we can accessibly do,
Speaker 5: because I can't punish bezos individually right right, but collectively
Speaker 5: we might be able to you know, land a finger
Speaker 5: nail right on right? The man could you know, makes
Speaker 5: more sleeping right than we do a wake for our lifetime.
Speaker 5: So anyway, all I have to say, the accessibility thing
Speaker 5: really resonated with me because I figured, like, yeah, we
Speaker 5: do want a way to feel good about sowing something
Speaker 5: into society. And part of our accountability is that, actually,
Speaker 5: you know that thing about feeling good about something, that's
Speaker 5: what I'm done.
Speaker 3: That is it's so powerful.
Speaker 1: And I think the thing that I would ask for
Speaker 1: us going forward from hearing all is that we continue
Speaker 1: to have conversations that have this level of care one
Speaker 1: two the level of nuance, because we can't continue to
Speaker 1: like my biggest pet peeve is when people go on
Speaker 1: social to land blast someone for clicks, for likes, to
Speaker 1: be in the algorithm, to be in that mix to
Speaker 1: go viral. It's irresponsible and I think it is just
Speaker 1: as irresponsible as the action initially taken that you're responding to.
Speaker 1: And so where does the cycle of irresponsibility in Well,
Speaker 1: it ends where we decide to have grace Bakari. Whether
Speaker 1: we are the bestores of that or not, we can
Speaker 1: still choose to walk and move in it to embuy
Speaker 1: for ourselves so that we can offer.
Speaker 3: It to other people.
Speaker 1: If we choose not to do that, I don't know
Speaker 1: what communal love is. I don't know what the village
Speaker 1: concept that we talk about is, Yes, you can come
Speaker 1: to the village to be rebuked, to be held accountable,
Speaker 1: but you should also be taught and love back in.
Speaker 1: I just I don't want to get in the process
Speaker 1: of throwing people away because it ain't that many of us.
Speaker 7: And that's we can't throw people away because at the
Speaker 7: end of the day that I love you're talking about
Speaker 7: that community you're talking about, and this is what people
Speaker 7: don't like, and this is the toxic relationship I'm talking
Speaker 7: about with this country, is that Black people are forced
Speaker 7: to love our neighbors even when they don't love us.
Speaker 7: And I think that that is that type of stress,
Speaker 7: that type of emotional drain, means that what you said,
Speaker 7: Angela was correct, because we're utilizing And that's why I
Speaker 7: just and maybe it's me projecting, because I want people
Speaker 7: to judge me off the totality of life lived, not
Speaker 7: on the failure that we know that I have had
Speaker 7: and will have. I mean, it's just I don't know,
Speaker 7: it's I.
Speaker 6: Also I'm sorry. I also decided a while ago that
Speaker 6: instead of bear the shame of feeling like I made
Speaker 6: a mistake in public, that I would just be willing
Speaker 6: to learn in public, and that as a person with
Speaker 6: a burgeoning platform at the time, that I didn't expect,
Speaker 6: but that I felt very responsible toward that. What was
Speaker 6: going to be important was that as much as I
Speaker 6: tend to extend grace to other people more than I
Speaker 6: do myself, I wanted to offer the opportunity for people
Speaker 6: to see that I am imperfect, and that if I
Speaker 6: fall short of my own integrity, right, not of your critique,
Speaker 6: but of my own integrity, that I actually want to,
Speaker 6: actually want to own that, I want to show my
Speaker 6: effort to correct.
Speaker 2: I want to I want to push forward in a.
Speaker 6: Way that then invites you to do the same, invites
Speaker 6: you to be reflective, right, And whether after that steak
Speaker 6: you dismiss me.
Speaker 2: Or not, I will feel good when I lay my
Speaker 2: head down at night.
Speaker 6: The other thing I've been doing lately is tricking my algorithm,
Speaker 6: and I have been complimenting strangers like it is my job.
Speaker 6: Like if somebody got engaged, somebody wore a cute outfit,
Speaker 6: somebody was like, hey, I've been sober for twenty eight days.
Speaker 2: I'm up in them comments.
Speaker 3: Like you go, you got it.
Speaker 6: We're cheering you on because now my algorithm looks very different,
Speaker 6: and I'm not really as tempted to hop into a
Speaker 6: conversation to drag somebody now because I'm not even seeing
Speaker 6: the dragons. My algorithm is not presenting those things to me.
Speaker 6: When I chose kindness first, I got kindness back.
Speaker 4: Get it, I get it, get it. Technology doing something right, girl,
Speaker 4: you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Liking workout videos because I'm doing a ninety day challenge
Speaker 1: because your girl gaining twenty pounds, so.
Speaker 4: Challenge.
Speaker 5: Look, he's been breaking it. You see he talking a
Speaker 5: lot less about all them stopped.
Speaker 3: You got off your gym clans.
