21
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,639
Speaker 2: I traveled. I was in Portland, Oregon. I spoke at

22
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 2: this playmaker summit, and.

23
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: I just I traveled.

24
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: But I got home early enough to spend time with

25
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 2: the hobby and the dogs. And so I saw you

26
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: posted something was it last week when you were lying

27
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 2: in bed right, and you said, You're all we're always

28
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 2: posting about like the glam side of what we do, right,

29
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 2: the traveling, the party is that, but we never really

30
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 2: post about the not so glam side, meaning just being

31
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: Hella tired.

32
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 1: And needing sleep and rest.

33
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 2: So when you posted that, I so was in that

34
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 2: bed with you in that moment. Yes, when I got

35
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: home for Easter, I was tired. I went, I kissed

36
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 2: my husband, said hey to my dogs, got in my bed,

37
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 2: and had the best sleep that I've ever had. Maybe

38
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 2: it's because I'm so tired and don't realize how much

39
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: sleep I need. So anyway, my Easter was amazing.

40
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 3: How about your I sell that I'm tired now to

41
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 3: be honest, but it is what it is, right, like

42
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 3: we just kind of keep moving. So I took this

43
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 3: weekend to try to not do anything right, which is

44
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: something that I never get a chance to do, Like

45
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:14,400
Speaker 3: I never have a weekend to just.

46
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 1: Not do nothing.

47
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: So this past weekend I took a moment to basically

48
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 3: eliminate myself from everything and everyone and just enjoy a

49
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 3: hobby and a sport and something that folks.

50
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: Probably don't know that I love. And this was WrestleMania weekend.

51
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 2: So I was fully invested in WrestleMania the entire weekend.

52
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: Like I know, there was playoff basketball that was going on.

53
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 1: I did not care.

54
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: Saturday, I obviously had to watch my Pistons because duh,

55
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 2: but duh. I was invested. I was invested in WrestleMania

56
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 2: all weekend. So I had a great time. Do you

57
00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 2: know It's crazy. I've never been a wrestling fan per se,

58
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 2: but back in the day, I used to watch it.

59
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 2: I was a big Junkyard dog fan, right, Yeah, But

60
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you my son Jordan, that was his

61
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 2: thing every Christmas. He wanted something that had to do

62
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 2: with wrestling. I got him the you know, the little

63
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: the big ring and the different wrestlers, and I remember

64
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 2: taking him to I guess it was WrestleMania, I don't know,

65
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: taking him to a big wrestling match way back in

66
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: the day when he was younger and girl, I was.

67
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: Like the coolest, best mom ever ever.

68
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, ever, if you ever feel like you want

69
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: to just relive that, I'm willing to be Jordan.

70
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: I'm willing to be Jordan, like, yeah.

71
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I'm not. I haven't. I haven't really thought

72
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: about that, so like I used to be, like I don't.

73
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 3: I can't even tell you when I first started watching wrestling,

74
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: because it was something that was always it was like

75
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: baseball in my house. It was like wrestling baseball were

76
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: the two things that were always on. And like my parents,

77
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 3: you know, I was raised by my great grandparents. They

78
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 3: were watching like Dick the Bruiser, Dusty Rows the Crusher,

79
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 3: like Undertaker is my favorite wrestler ever of all time.

80
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: Fair Now, I hated Rick Flair because my dad was

81
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: a big Riff Flair. But I tell you all, Rick Flair,

82
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: I hated it. Rick Sir.

83
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: My dad used to just walk around the house and

84
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 2: just be like whoa, like just randomly.

85
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 1: I was like, come on, shut up, like cut it out.

86
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: Like I hated it. I hated it.

87
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 3: But I had took some time away from wrestling though,

88
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 3: Like I want to say, it was around the time

89
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 3: that the ruthless Aggression era started.

90
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: That was like when John Sena got real popular, and

91
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 1: like it just it wasn't fueling me.

92
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 3: I was like I was in college at the times,

93
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 3: I was like heavy into trying to get my grades right.

94
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 3: I was a student athlete at the time. I was

95
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 3: like heavy into boys. I wasn't thinking about no wrestling.

96
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 3: I was thinking about who these wombs was that was

97
00:04:58,279 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 3: gonna be calling.

98
00:04:59,040 --> 00:04:59,840
Speaker 1: Me all day knows.

99
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,919
Speaker 3: So everything hot, it was a little I was a

100
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 3: hot girl.

101
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: I was a hog girl. So I just didn't have

102
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 1: time to keep up like I used to.

103
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 3: And then around the time my nephews came along, My

104
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 3: nephew came along, like twenty twelve, twenty thirteen. That was

105
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 3: like when Roman Reigns was like at the top of

106
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 3: his game, like he still is in his prime.

107
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 1: But like Roman was like that dude.

108
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 3: So I still had to follow Roman and Slasha Banks

109
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 3: and all like I have to follow for my nieces

110
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:28,119
Speaker 3: and nephews, you know what I mean. But I still

111
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 3: wasn't like watching every show. It was just I'm keeping

112
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 3: up because they remind me of soul propers, right, Like,

113
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 3: no matter how long you ain't watched The Young Restless,

114
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 3: no matter what you put it back on you like, girl,

115
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 3: I know exactly what's happening.

116
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: That's how it was for me.

117
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 3: And then I want to say, over the last like

118
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:50,480
Speaker 3: maybe seven months when Raw Now went to Netflix, there

119
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 3: was so much hype and build up around it and

120
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 3: the bloodline storyline and all this stuff that my frat

121
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: brother was on Twitter and was like, cis.

122
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 2: You really gotta like invest back into it again? Like

123
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: it is so good right now. He was like, it's

124
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 2: like Attitude era good. This was like nineties when like

125
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: DX was doing this thing. I'm sure this is when

126
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 2: Jordan was probably like, yeah, this is my.

127
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 3: Probably yeaheah, Like this was when it was like like

128
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 3: the Attitude era was stone Cold, Steve Boston the Rock

129
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 3: like it was crazy.

130
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

131
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 2: I was like, you know what, I'm gonna give it.

132
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get back into it. I'm gonna give a

133
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 2: full week. I'm gonna watch Wrong Monday, I'm gonna watch

134
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: NXT on Tuesday, Smack Donald Friday. I'm gonna give it

135
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 2: a week and see like if I can get my

136
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 2: my wrestling fire back.

137
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: So question for you.

138
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 2: John Cena is a new age wrestler, right or is

139
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 2: he considered old?

140
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:41,159
Speaker 1: No?

141
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 3: John Cena is like I mean, for us, he's like

142
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 3: an older wrestler now, but he's not older like my childhood.

143
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 3: OHD Like he came around I was in college, so

144
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 3: but he's still been wrestling for like twenty years, Like

145
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,360
Speaker 3: he's still been around a while, I said, because Jordan

146
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 3: used to just run around the house in his whole

147
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 3: you can't see me and see me.

148
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 2: And I remember asking him like what are you doing?

149
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: He just run around and be like mama, mama, that

150
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 2: is so sarious.

151
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: I was like, what are you doing?

152
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 2: So finally and I realized where he got it from?

153
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: Girl?

154
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 2: And how about one day he did it to me

155
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 2: and I snatched him up and I said, yeah, I

156
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 2: can't see you see you?

157
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:36,400

162
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,320
Speaker 3: like I'm trying to be the one on the sideline,

163
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 3: like hyping everybody up, pulling out chairs on the low key,

164
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 3: low key, hitting people with the belt.

Speaker 1: Like you know what I'm saying. I won't. I will be.

00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,480

170
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: But I need to know what Grace's wrestling name is

00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: It's got to be saying I'm there. I can't wait.

176
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 2: It should be some country because she lives in Nashville.

177
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,440
Speaker 2: It's gotta be country, some country ship.

178
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 3: Oh my god, Grace, we are just creating a whole

179
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,800

00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's gonna be so much fun. Can't wait.

181
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, no, it was a great weekend. But it

182
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 2: wasn't a great weekend for everybody. Now, I was about

183
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 2: to say speaking of wrestling. I know, speaking of wrestling,

184
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 2: it wasn't. It wasn't a great week end for everybody

185
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 2: because somebody, so I Lody, forgot that they are not

186
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 2: a wrestler, that they are actually a basketball player. And

187
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 2: I'm talking about DeMar de Rosan. I don't think he

188
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 2: forgot Demartin de Rosan out here. Matter of fact, that

189
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 2: wasn't even wrestling, that was boxing. Yeah, I ain't mad

190
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 2: at enough I mean, it's a trip. But on today's episode,

191
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 2: we're about to get into a conversation about what happens

192
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 2: when people kind of cross the line that they probably

193
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 2: shouldn't cross, and what happens when you fa fo On that.

194
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 1: Note, let's go ahead and take this to the next level.

195
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 3: All right, So Demart de Rosan for those who may

196
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 3: not know who Demarta Rosen is, He's an NBA player.

197
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 3: Plays for the Sacramento Kings, used to play for the Bulls,

198
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 3: used play for the Raptors, but anyway, plays for the

199
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 3: Kings now and on. For Friday, April nineteenth, you know,

200
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 3: Tomorrow was hungry. He decided to go a get something

201
00:09:58,920 --> 00:09:59,199
Speaker 3: to eat.

202
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 2: He went out, you know when I would have I

203
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 2: don't know, a female. I don't I'm not assuming, but

204
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 2: there was a female with him, I'm guessing. And he

205
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: was at a sushi restaurant in Calabasas and he was

206
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 2: mad in his business and according to the reports, a

207
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: man walked up to him. And the man walked up

208
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 2: to him and put like his cell phone with a

209
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 2: bright light.

210
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,199
Speaker 1: No, no, no, it's start according to reports.

211
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: Well yeah, it's according to the video where you can

212
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 2: see the video in it. Yes, you can see him

213
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 2: putting the phone up to his face, and DeMar DeRozan

214
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 2: basically hits the phone out of his face because I

215
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,079
Speaker 2: mean it was very clearly unexpected, and you can tell

216
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: that he don't know the man, but he puts the

217
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 2: phone in his face, he hits the phone out of

218
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 2: his face. And then the dude now who gets up,

219
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 2: is like demanding for his phone to be back, and

220
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 2: now him and Damar like in this scuffle, and DeMar

221
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 2: is like getting at him for real, for real.

222
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,439
Speaker 3: And then there's this woman who in like this gray sweatsuit.

223
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 3: She's like telling Tomorrow like he's not worth it, trying

224
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 3: to get in between him, trying to back him up,

225
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 3: and she's just like, he's not worth it, He's not

226
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,280
Speaker 3: worth it, don't do it, it's not worth it. When

227
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 3: she's right, and then the dude, you know, after getting

228
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 3: his ass whoop, finally gets up, DeMar throws the phone,

229
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 3: and then Damar backs into like this other part of

230
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 3: the restaurant. But yeah, basically, like witnesses segcaus this part

231
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 3: isn't on the video, but the witnesses say that the

232
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 3: man who had on shorts got into an ambulance because

233
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: apparently he has sustained some injuries from the fight.

234
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: They had called the police because there was glass and

235
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 2: cutlery and shit that was flying around, and so we

236
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,079
Speaker 2: don't know what happened after Deamorrow backed into the thing,

237
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 2: because that's not quite on the video. But this is

238
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 2: what I mean by FAFO, and if you are unfamiliar

239
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 2: with fafoh, it simply means fuck around and find out,

240
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 2: because why are you walking up on people shoving your

241
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,680
Speaker 2: phone in their face?

242
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: Period?

243
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 2: Like this has nothing to do with a celebrity Tomorrow anybody,

244
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 2: Like I don't care who you are, Like, what gives

245
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 2: you the right to invade anybody's personal space like that?

246
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 2: And I don't care if they are out in public.

247
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 2: But let me say one thing before we really dive

248
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 2: into this sis.

249
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,839
Speaker 1: Whoever the female is with Tomorrow.

250
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 2: She looked like she got some hands because she got

251
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 2: in between Tomorrow and this dude and was like, listen,

252
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: what we not gonna do is space And so she

253
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 2: holding damarrow back like no, he ain't worth it one

254
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: hundred percent degree. But at the same time, she's looking

255
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 2: at old boy like you, I dare you right? Like nah,

256
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,840
Speaker 2: we ain't about to do this. She legitimately put body

257
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 2: on old boy. Yeah, like wow, Damar's backing up. She

258
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 2: put body on old boy like you ain't gonna get

259
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 2: around me.

260
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: I respect it one hundred percent. But you know that's

261
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: what we do as women.

262
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 2: We go all week, we always be standing in a

263
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 2: gap for everybody. We always go home. O, man down,

264
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 2: whoever it is, tee this just I saw this video

265
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:10,160
Speaker 2: and I immediately went to, why.

266
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: Would you do that?

267
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 2: Like you you're just walking by, you see him? You

268
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 2: just and DeMar actually had his head down, he was

269
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 2: eating or talking, doing whatever. I'm still trying to figure

270
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,240
Speaker 2: out what made you want to do what you did

271
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 2: in that moment.

272
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 1: And now trying to act like you're the victim. The

273
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: victim is what is? What was crazy?

274
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 3: Because you invaded this person's personal space, You shoved a

275
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,160
Speaker 3: phone in their face with a bright ass light, and

276
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 3: now you're upset at the reaction, like we don't know

277
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 3: what that was or what that.

278
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: Could have been.

279
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 3: But at the end of the day, though, I think

280
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,960
Speaker 3: the bigger piece of this conversation is and I'm sure

281
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 3: this is something you absolutely can relate to. It's like

282
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 3: fans have to understand that athletes are humans to when

283
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 3: they're out eating, when they are out with their families,

284
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 3: when they're out doing their thing. There's a level of

285
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 3: respect in how you approach someone as a fan to

286
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 3: even like, first of all, read the room.

287
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: Right. Does this even look like a.

288
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 2: Moment in which this person is trying to engage fans

289
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 2: or does this look like a moment in which this

290
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 2: person is trying to enjoy their time with whoever they

291
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 2: are with, right, So number one, you need to read

292
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 2: the room. But secondly, be a bit more respectful in

293
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 2: how you approach people.

294
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 1: If you're a.

295
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 3: Fan and you want a photo or you want to

296
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 3: autograph or something, just walking up on somebody and putting

297
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 3: your phone in their face, not only is it rude

298
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 3: to the common person, but it's especially rude to someone

299
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 3: who probably would give you their time and attention if

300
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 3: you had asked.

301
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: For a better one hundred percent.

302
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 2: Have I experienced moments like that a lot, But I

303
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 2: think people tend to forget to your point that celebrities, actors, athletes, whoever, like,

304
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 2: we're human. And I just remember when I was playing

305
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,280
Speaker 2: and Jordan was younger. You know, we go out to eat,

306
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 2: or to a movie or whatever. And I always have,

307
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 2: always will find time for my fans, right because I'm

308
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: also very appreciative and grateful that, like you want a

309
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: picture with me, you want my autograph, I don't. I

310
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 2: don't take that shit for granted. But at the same time,

311
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: I've always just asked that you respect my space, respect

312
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 2: my personal time, and as a mom, right when I

313
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 2: was out with my kid, I remember one time as

314
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 2: Jordan's started getting older, like he felt some type of

315
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 2: way because he was like, dang, I can't even get

316
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 2: some time with my mama, just me and my mama

317
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: without everybody coming over and bothering and things like that. Right,

318
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 2: But at the end of the day, I'm going to

319
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 2: be respectful of you and your time.

320
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,520
Speaker 1: So all I ask is for you to do the

321
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:10,120
Speaker 1: same with me.

322
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 2: And I would be willing to bet to your point

323
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 2: if this dude, and I'm assuming he's a fan of Demorrow, right,

324
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 2: I know he is. I read where he said something

325
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 2: about don't ever meet your childhood hero, like he said

326
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 2: that somewhere based off of what happened, But I would

327
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 2: be willing to bet if he would have just at

328
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 2: some point walked over and just been like, excuse me

329
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 2: when you're done or whatever. I'd love to get a

330
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 2: photo with you or autograph whatever it was he was wanting,

331
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 2: because I still don't know what that is tomorrow, probably

332
00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 2: would have acknowledged him and either said I'll do it

333
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 2: later or no, I don't feel like doing it today.

334
00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 2: And if he would have said no, that's okay too,

335
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 2: like just respect that. I don't condone violence at all,

336
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 2: but you know what, I do condone somebody doing what

337
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 2: he did because you violated this man's face mm hm,

338
00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 2: and DeMar had every right to do what he did.

339
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: Just my opinion, I feel that.

340
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 3: Like again, I'm not one that will condone violence either,

341
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 3: but I do think, like, first of all, I think

342
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 3: some things are natural reactions, like I love my husband dearly,

343
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,479
Speaker 3: but if but if, even if he comes over and

344
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 3: puts something in my face and I don't expect it,

345
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 3: my natural reaction might be to just wipe my hand

346
00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 3: like wet something like Yo're gonna jump back like what

347
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 3: they're doing, Like that's just my natural effect of being

348
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 3: startled by something. So if I would feel that way

349
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 3: with my husband, I'm definitely gonna throw that away with

350
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 3: a total stranger coming in my space putting something in

351
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 3: my face.

352
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 1: I don't know what this is.

353
00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 2: Like, people are crazy in the world these days, right,

354
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 2: and so they come up with all types.

355
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: Of things that they put in front.

356
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 2: I mean I've seen people do that with like autographs,

357
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 2: Like they just literally walk over and just like hand

358
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 2: you a pen and paper or hand you a pen

359
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 2: and a shirt or something. And I'm just like, wow,

360
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 2: Like folks aren't even want to ask or find out

361
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 2: or simply read the room. I have come in contact

362
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 2: with so many dope people out in the street or whatever.

363
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you an example. We were in an airport.

364
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,000
Speaker 2: We were coming back from New Orleans and I want

365
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,239
Speaker 2: to say this was twenty eighteen, I think it was,

366
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 2: but anyway, we were coming back from New Orleans and

367
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 2: we were in the New Orleans airport and literally going

368
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 2: through security. Right behind us was Lamar Jackson, the NFL player,

369
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 2: and at the time he had literally just.

370
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: Got drafted to Baltimore.

371
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 2: And I believe the prior TSA officer told him, you know,

372
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 2: you're supposed to take off your hoodie when you go through,

373
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 2: but they were like, you know, you don't have to

374
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 2: take your hoodie off, like we know what's good, Just

375
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 2: go ahead. He gets up to the TSA line and

376
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 2: the TSA agent at the front is like being I'm

377
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 2: gonna do my job. So now there's this big thing

378
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 2: because she's asking him to take off his hoodie, take

379
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 2: off his glasses, all of that stuff, and she has

380
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 2: no idea who is. And then finally, so I'm taking

381
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,720
Speaker 2: my time putting my shoes because i want to see

382
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 2: how this ship play out. I'm like, oh, this is

383
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 2: gonna be ok. Yeah, what's going wrong? And so finally

384
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,720
Speaker 2: dude from the bank, because now he get irritated, he

385
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 2: can take his glasses off. Now people starting to know,

386
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 2: you know, like, wait a minute, I think I know

387
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 2: this dude. He takes a sweater off. He got like

388
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 2: three folks chains on under here. And then finally maybe

389
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 2: a higher officer comes over and says to the agent, hey,

390
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 2: that's Lamar Jackson, Like he ain't got to do all

391
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 2: of that. And so of course now everyone sees who

392
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 2: it is. Now you got folks holding up the TSA

393
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 2: line because they like, oh, I want to see Lamar Jackson.

394
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,360
Speaker 2: I want he just got drafted. I want to take

395
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 2: a picture with Lamar. I want to stop Lamar Jackson.

396
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,159
Speaker 2: And so I bring up these examples because I'm like,

397
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 2: sometimes athletes, celebrities, sometimes folks just want to be normal folks.

398
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: They just want to go through the.

399
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 2: TSA line like a regular, regular individual, like everybody don't

400
00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 2: always have to be enamored to the point where they

401
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 2: take away a person's ability to just simply be normal. Yeah,

402
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 2: that's I agree with you, But that's like, that's a

403
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 2: difficult one at times because I think I probably look

404
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:22,000
Speaker 2: at it from both sides. Like the very first time

405
00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 2: I met Michael Jordan, who is like my all everything one,

406
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 2: I was speechless, I bet right, Like, I was like that, dude,

407
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:39,399
Speaker 2: is youman? Like that's the goat the Michael Jordan. And

408
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 2: so the reason why I say I look at it

409
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 2: from both sides because when you do get that opportunity

410
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 2: to meet that someone that you've seen on television or

411
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 2: you've read about, or you've just loved from Afar admired

412
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:59,119
Speaker 2: from Afar and never thinking that you might meet that person,

413
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 2: and then who's standing in front of you, you really

414
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 2: don't know what to do in that moment, right, And

415
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 2: so I try to respect everybody's face, because it takes

416
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 2: a lot.

417
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 1: For me to be like, WHOA, that's so.

418
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 2: And so I was that way with Michael Jordan, with

419
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,640
Speaker 2: Oprah when I met her, and with Barack Obama right

420
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: next the pemble and Michelle Obama, right, those are people

421
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 2: you should be that way about, though, and I was so,

422
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:33,879
Speaker 2: but there was a part of me that was like,

423
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 2: I may not ever get this opportunity again. And so

424
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 2: that's where I think as a fan, sometimes you don't

425
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 2: quite know how to react or respond. And in this situation,

426
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 2: especially like with TSA, that's their job. So not that

427
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,879
Speaker 2: she trying to cause a scene or whatever, but she's like, dude,

428
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 2: I don't know you. And and at times even if

429
00:21:54,840 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 2: I do, this is my job. Yeah, but you know what,

430
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 2: but in a situation like that, it's kind of a

431
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 2: damn if I do, damn if I don't, because if

432
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 2: you if you don't make him take his glasses off

433
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 2: in the hoodie and hat or whatever, it is, the

434
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 2: next person that comes through probably gonna be like, well,

435
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 2: you ain't make him take all this shit off?

436
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 1: Why? Right?

437
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 3: But I also think in that scenario, specifically, old boy

438
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 3: at the front of the TSA line should have done

439
00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:25,920
Speaker 3: a better job communicating to the back of the tea.

440
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: That's part I do agree with. Yeah, I totally agree

441
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: with you all that one. I do. Yeah, I just

442
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: I think people just seem to be more respectful in general.

443
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 2: And when you know what, I used to tell myself

444
00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 2: and I still do it every now and again, especially

445
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 2: depending on where I'm at. If I'm having a shitty

446
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,159
Speaker 2: day and I just don't want to be bothered, I

447
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 2: don't leave my house.

448
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: Reason being because even if I'm going to the grocery.

449
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 2: Store, and especially if i'm home, right I go to

450
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 2: the grocery store, somebody's gonna recognize me, and because I'm

451
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 2: having a shitty day, I don't want to be bothered.

452
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 1: But you don't. You don't know that, do you know what?

453
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, You don't know. I'm having a shitty day

454
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 1: and I don't want to bother.

455
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 2: So I just gotta I gotta turn it on in

456
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 2: that moment, right because this person's like, oh my god.

457
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 2: Like I've literally had people follow me up and down

458
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 2: the grocery aisle just to just to come up to

459
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 2: me and say, you look so familiar, And I'm like, Okay, who.

460
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,439
Speaker 1: Do you think I am, yeah, And then I'm like,

461
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,679
Speaker 1: so this is the one that gets me. Are you

462
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 1: who I think you are? And I'm like, I don't know,

463
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: because I.

464
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 2: Don't know who you think I am, right right, And

465
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: so it's a really tough place to be in, especially when.

466
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 1: You go out in.

467
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 2: Public, like I don't know if that, if that happened

468
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 2: after a.

469
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: Game, I don't know, and not that that should matter.

470
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 1: What should matter is.

471
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 2: That he, he clearly demark clearly was having some alone time,

472
00:23:55,440 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 2: whether that's his girlfriend, friend, business manager, partners, sir, whoever

473
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 2: it is, he clearly was just having some alone time

474
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 2: and you chose to interrupt that in a very disrespectful way.

475
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 2: So I can't be mad at how Damar handle that.

476
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,359
Speaker 2: I'm mad at how old boy handled it.

477
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,680
Speaker 3: And what's crazy is folks will always get mad at

478
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 3: the response, but never pay attention to what caused you

479
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 3: to act like that, like what led?

480
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: Like how did we get here? Right?

481
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 3: But when we come back from break, I got a

482
00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 3: quick question for you because it actually leads me to

483
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 3: a larger point, like an even more macro point.

484
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,040
Speaker 1: So stay with this, y'all.

485
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 3: So, Cheryl, I'm curious to know do you think that

486
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 3: because of situations like that, or because even bringing it

487
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 3: to the w situations like what happened to Britney Griner

488
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 3: in the airport, what happened to Caitlin when she was

489
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 3: being stalked, what happened to Angel Like when you think

490
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 3: about situations like this, do you think that there needs

491
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:23,360
Speaker 3: to be more security for athletes or celebrities even on

492
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:28,200
Speaker 3: their like off time, personal time, like should they hire

493
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 3: personal security guards for stuff like this? Because I feel like,

494
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 3: and I'm obviously not a high profile celebrity, I get

495
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 3: a few people every once in a while who would

496
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 3: be like Terika, oh my gosh, you knows sports from Twitter,

497
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 3: and I'm like, oh wow. But for the most part,

498
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 3: if I need a security officer, I'd be like, girl,

499
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 3: my husband is down the street.

500
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,160
Speaker 1: You don't want that smoke. That's it.

501
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,400
Speaker 3: But I'm curious, do you think in people's personal times,

502
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,640
Speaker 3: because of the way that things are happening, should there

503
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 3: be or do you think we're getting to a point

504
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 3: where it becomes necessary. I mean, even you I've seen,

505
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 3: I've definitely seen brand didn't have to be.

506
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 2: Like yeah, no, one hundred and here's the thing I'm

507
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,439
Speaker 2: glad you brought that up, because I actually was going

508
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 2: to say, like, oh, boy, is lucky Damar didn't have

509
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 2: his security with him, right, because I'm I'm pretty sure

510
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,919
Speaker 2: Damar travels with his security when he's on his personal

511
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 2: time going out there with him, and for the most part,

512
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 2: most NBA players they have their extra security for their dude,

513
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 2: whoever that is. So I'm I'm actually very surprised that

514
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 2: DeMar didn't. So to your point, yes I do. But

515
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 2: here's the thing, especially when you look at the w

516
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,360
Speaker 2: there's probably only a handful of women two things that

517
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 2: need it outside of playing, and that can afford it,

518
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 2: right because having your own personal security twenty four or seven,

519
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 2: when you're just kind of out on your own thing

520
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:05,199
Speaker 2: like that, shit gets expensive. I know, I know for

521
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 2: a fact that Caitlyn travels with her own personal security

522
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 2: as she should rightfully. So right I know, I've seen

523
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 2: Angel with her security, Asia has her security. Those are

524
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 2: players that absolutely need it. It's sad that you have to,

525
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 2: but in this in this world, in the day and

526
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 2: time we're living in, and people just feel like from

527
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 2: social media or just because they feel like they have

528
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 2: a right to just attack you anytime they want to.

529
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 2: And to your point, like when when I played, we

530
00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,360
Speaker 2: didn't have like personal security that traveled with us like that,

531
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 2: even even for games. Right, that wasn't until a little

532
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,240
Speaker 2: later where they were like, oh okay, we might need

533
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,439
Speaker 2: to have some security with them. But even for for

534
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,679
Speaker 2: me now, when I travel, most of the time, I

535
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,439
Speaker 2: have Brandon's with me, my brother or like my husband

536
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,400
Speaker 2: will send a couple of his boys with me depending

537
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 2: on where I'm going.

538
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: I'll be very honest with you, Tea.

539
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 2: This all kind of happened over the past couple of years,

540
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 2: right with all the hate and all the ugliness and

541
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 2: stuff that came about from from Caitlyn's fans, and when

542
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 2: when you're getting threats on social media, Like I'm one

543
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 2: of those people that, like, I take.

544
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:28,439
Speaker 1: This shit seriously as you should, so I gotta be prepared.

545
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 2: For the unknown, right, Like, I don't know who might

546
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 2: try to come in my space, who may try.

547
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,119
Speaker 1: To even pull some shit like oh boy did right?

548
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,719
Speaker 2: And you know me, for the for the most part,

549
00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 2: I'm like, listen, I love interacting with people.

550
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: I love my fans. I won't take a picture.

551
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,040
Speaker 2: Whatever it is I can do that's going to make

552
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 2: you happy in that moment, like, I don't mind doing it.

553
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 2: I just ask for people to be respectful. I said,

554
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 2: don't don't, don't pull that shit that he did. Yeah,

555
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 2: it just don't just phone out. I'll just put your

556
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 2: phone out, like you know, I've seen things work like

557
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 2: a simple hey, how you doing and swoops, it's nice

558
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 2: to meet you.

559
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: Do you mind if we.

560
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 3: Take a photo and I'm like, no, let's go what.

561
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: You want to do. I love it.

562
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,280
Speaker 2: I love being in spaces like that. But but I

563
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 2: will also say this, like you said earlier, just read

564
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,960
Speaker 2: the room. If you come into a restaurant and you

565
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 2: can see that you know, we're at a table and

566
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 2: I don't care if that's me and my friends or

567
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 2: me and my husband. If you can see we're enjoying

568
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,440
Speaker 2: each other's company, or we're in a good conversation, or

569
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 2: even if I got my food and I'm eating, that's

570
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 2: not the right time to do that, right. And this

571
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 2: goes for media too, because some players are not wrong

572
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 2: when they say that there are some media members who

573
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,000
Speaker 2: act like fans, that there are some media members who

574
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,440
Speaker 2: don't quite understand the fact that there's your job, and.

575
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 1: Then there is outside of your job.

576
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 2: And I've got pictures with players and things like that,

577
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,479
Speaker 2: So I'm not necessarily being hypocritical or saying like, hey,

578
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 2: you're gonna take pictures with players. Absolutely No, I got

579
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 2: plenty of pictures with players, and I plan to take

580
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 2: plenty more with players.

581
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: Right.

582
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 3: But what I'm never doing is I'm never like fangirling

583
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,600
Speaker 3: out when I should be doing my job, or I

584
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:25,240
Speaker 3: also understand very professional when I'm doing my job, or

585
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 3: you know, if we're in a private space. I'm not

586
00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 3: like like one of those reporters that's like, listen, we

587
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 3: good when we on the court, we're good when we're sidelining, right,

588
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 3: But the moment I get a drink in my hand, babe,

589
00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 3: everything off the record, because it ain't even about you

590
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 3: at this point. It's about me, and I don't need

591
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 3: you talk about to really good act in a day

592
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 3: of food. Yes, I was because I'm at a club

593
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 3: and I had a drink and I was absolutely acting

594
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:50,120
Speaker 3: a fool.

595
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 2: I wasn't thinking about you or what you was doing.

596
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 2: I was worried about what I was doing. So that's

597
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 2: what I mean.

598
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 3: While I'm like, sometimes even media members can be a

599
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 3: little rude and disrespectful with how they ask for photos

600
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 3: or how they don't read the room sometimes and maybe

601
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 3: they you know, do something or capture something or do

602
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 3: something that like you know why people won't build trust

603
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 3: with you and that kind of thing. So I just

604
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 3: think everybody should consider reading the room and understanding how

605
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 3: to move forward. When you see somebody out in public,

606
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 3: it is not always a time for you. I mean, listen,

607
00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 3: if I see Barack Obama out in public, you dann ray,

608
00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 3: I'm gonna.

609
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 2: Be like by rack as you should, as you should,

610
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 2: I should, but I'm not gonna run up on him.

611
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 2: I president, okay, but I'm not gonna run up on

612
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 2: him a Michelle with my cell phone out, like come

613
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 2: on out. No, he a Leo too, So I know

614
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 2: how he's gonna respond, So I can't.

615
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: We can. You can't even do it like that. Here's

616
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,320
Speaker 1: the other thing, though, like you would be people would.

617
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 2: Be surprised at how personable like these celebrities and these

618
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 2: people right if you, if you handle it the right way,

619
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,959
Speaker 2: you usually get the the ugly side or the not

620
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 2: so good side when.

621
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: You act a fool with them.

622
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 3: When you when you're rude, yeah, yeah, all right, Well,

623
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 3: you know what, it's been a great conversation, but let's

624
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 3: go ahead and level this thing on out because we

625
00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 3: had a lot to get to over the next couple

626
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 3: of weeks, and I'm excited to talk about it, so

627
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:29,320
Speaker 3: stay with us, y'all. So basically, overall, I just need

628
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 3: people to like respect folks of space, and like respect

629
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 3: where people are coming from, because it's not easy being

630
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,959
Speaker 3: a public figure, and it's not easy, like having to

631
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 3: live a lot of your life in the spotlight, like

632
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 3: and sometimes people just need the moment to be normal.

633
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 3: And I think that's pretty much what the overall arching

634
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 3: theme of today's show is.

635
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 1: So I totally agree. It ain't never gonna be you, shirl.

636
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:52,880
Speaker 1: You ain't gonna never be normal.

637
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, it's not even it's not even

638
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 2: about that. I just I think to add on to

639
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 2: what you said, like, but you do have to let

640
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 2: people like, let us be human.

641
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, we're gonna have bad days, just like

642
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: everybody else does.

643
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 2: But in Damar DeRozan's case and situation, I just thought

644
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 2: the way old boy handle that whole thing, like you

645
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 2: were way out of line, way out of line, and

646
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,560
Speaker 2: tomorrow had every right to handle it the way he

647
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 2: handled it.

648
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 1: So, yeah, is what it is.

649
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 2: Just don't be invading people's face like that. Give me

650
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 2: my three feet of space.

651
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 1: That's that's it.

652
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 3: So with that, let's go ahead and a level today's

653
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 3: show on off. What you got for us today, Cheryl, So,

654
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 3: I thought about giving our conversation. I thought about just

655
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:43,440
Speaker 3: singing the song back back, back back, give me fifty

656
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 3: B and then I said, no, maybe not, maybe not,

657
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:48,040
Speaker 3: maybe not.

658
00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 2: This were just kind of stood out to me honestly,

659
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 2: has nothing to do with our conversation. I just you know,

660
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 2: when you when you're setting goals and you have dreams

661
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 2: and aspirations of things you want to achieve, sometimes you

662
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 2: wonder why those things aren't happening. And I found this

663
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 2: quote by Amanda flood Fludd, and it says, some of

664
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 2: your goals are buried so deep in fear it doesn't

665
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 2: have access to what it needs to grow. Oh, I

666
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 2: just there was something about that.

667
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: It just kind of hit me in the right spot. So, oh, yes,

668
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,880
Speaker 1: maybe that resonates somebody. Yeah, maybe that resonates with some

669
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:30,680
Speaker 1: of y'all out there.

670
