I want to share something with you 27 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: that's important, that's very very important. See, you have to 28 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: get of God something to bless you know, if your 29 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: prayer is asking for God's blessings, you got to give 30 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: him something to work with. Now, you know, you gotta 31 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: show the spirit of appreciation or gratitude. You gotta let 32 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,119 Speaker 1: him know that you're in it for the long haul. 33 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: No matter what happens. Don't turn around, don't go back. 34 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,279 Speaker 1: You will never ever see what the end could be 35 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: if you turn around and go back, You'll never know 36 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: what the end could have been had you stuck it out. 37 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: You'll never know how good it could have gotten, had 38 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: you not just weathered the storm. That's the thing that 39 00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: gets most people. They get tough form, it gets hard 40 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 1: for them, and then they let doubts set in, and 41 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: then those doubts become facts and the next thing you know, 42 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: they give up. Ever cross your mind, had you not 43 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: given up or had you given your best, what the 44 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: results or outcome could have been. I look back on 45 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: my life on so many occasions where in college I 46 00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:30,280 Speaker 1: wasn't giving my best. Now I flunked out. Now it's 47 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: easy to look at my life nine go yeah, but 48 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: look at you now. But back then, man, it cost 49 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 1: me for so many years that failing to finish that 50 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: not giving my all, it cost me a number of years. 51 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: I wish I could say that it didn't mean nothing, 52 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: that it was just a blimp on the radar screen screen, 53 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: but at the time it was major. And so you 54 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 1: have a lot of decisions in your life that are 55 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: happening now. You may be in your twenties, your late teens, 56 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: you could be in your early thirties, and it is happening. 57 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 1: But guess what you'll eventually get through it provided one 58 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: thing you never give up. You never turn around and 59 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: go back. Had I written myself off because of one failure? See, 60 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 1: and this is where so many people go but go 61 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 1: wrong at two. You write yourself off after you failed 62 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: at something, the one thing you thought you wanted to 63 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: accomplish and you failed at it. Now you write yourself 64 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: as a failure. Now you go settle on end to 65 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: life and just see see what hand you get. Had 66 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: When I flunked out of college, had I written myself 67 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: off as a failure, I wouldn't be here today. When 68 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: I lost my carpet cleaning company, I would have written 69 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: myself as a failure. And I wouldn't be here today. 70 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: When I didn't become a diamond distributed in am Way 71 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: or a direct distributor in an way, even I would 72 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: have written myself as a failure and I wouldn't be 73 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: here today. When I bought a distribution kit to become 74 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: a distributor of the Bohemian Diet and I didn't make it, 75 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: I would have written myself as a failure. When I 76 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 1: became an Al Williams distributor and I didn't make it, 77 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 1: I would have written myself as a failure and I 78 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: wouldn't be here today. Oh, I gotta list for you. 79 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: When I got laid off it for a motor company, 80 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: had I written myself as a failure, I wouldn't have 81 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: made it. Do you need some more? Because I have 82 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: a story filled with mishaps. I have a story filled 83 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: with failures. A couple of things now, the grace of 84 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: God and his mercy which is available to us all. 85 00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: See that's the key, y'all, because of his mercy, because 86 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: of his willingness to forgive and to even understand why 87 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: we do the things we do. In all of my shortcomings, 88 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: failed marriages I'm talking about, man got it all wrong. 89 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: I can't blame nobody else. It's just me. Steve ain't 90 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: have it together at that point in life. I've could 91 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: have ridden myself as a failure the first time I could. 92 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: I just could have gave up on it after the 93 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: second one. And please know that this is an admission. 94 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: This ain't bragging. So before you start in with me, 95 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: understand what I'm saying. I'm pointing out in my life 96 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: a series of missteps and failures, but how I still 97 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: get here today a couple of things. God's grace and 98 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: mercy is first. But that's the key. That's for everybody. 99 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: See if it's God's willingness to forgive you and God's 100 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: understanding of why we do what we do because He 101 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: said we wasn't gonna be perfect. So in all of 102 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: your imperfections, your creator told you you would not be perfect. 103 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: He's sad it to you. It's out there I don't 104 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: care which one of the books you read, it tells 105 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: you that. So guess what. With that in mind, he 106 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: has a grace that he has. It's like a grace period. 107 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: It's like when you don't pay your insurance premium on 108 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: the day that is due. The next day, they don't 109 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: just cancel your insurance premium. They have a grace period 110 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: because they ain't trying to stop this money from coming in. 111 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: But when it comes to God, there's no money required. 112 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: He just gives you the grace freely. It don't cost 113 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: you nothing. Se I tap into that, y'all. You gotta 114 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: get in touch with that, because that's an important part 115 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: to making it understanding that his grace is available. So 116 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: when you make a mistake, So when you fail at it, 117 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: he has a loophole in the contract with him that 118 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: allows you to make mistakes, that allows you to get 119 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: it wrong, that allows you to fail time and time 120 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 1: and time again. But if you never give up, if 121 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: you keep getting up, if you keep trying, if you 122 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: keep striving, if you keep making the effort to go 123 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: forward and not go back, God has a blessing for you, 124 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: and he has it in abundance for you and God 125 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: will give it to you at the right time, but 126 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: you got to be ready. Oh. I want it to 127 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: be successful. But if he had given it to me 128 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,840 Speaker 1: back then, I wouldn't have handled it correctly because I 129 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: would have made some more mistakes along the way. You're 130 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: listening to day Morning Show, ladies and gitimate man, have 131 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: your attention, please.

Yeah, 213 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: rephrase the question. Sure, okay, So you were happy about 214 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: something last year twenty eighteen, right, okay, so are you 215 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 1: that happiness is so good you're going to continue it 216 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 1: in this year? Yes? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah? Okay, Well 217 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: what was it? Yeah? I made the attitude adjustment last year, okay, 218 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: and I'm going to continue it. Okay, think about this. 219 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: You're a comedian. What made you laugh the hardest, I 220 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 1: mean hard laughing most recently? Oh when I was watching 221 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 1: that video or that white dude jumping over that canal 222 00:17:54,600 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: and he ain't making dale video. I watched that video player. 223 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: I'm Holland. I'm talking about Holland because you aren't laughing 224 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: hearted than that little boy snatching that thing out that 225 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:16,680 Speaker 1: bird mouth. Yeah, I laughed harder than that the dude 226 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: jumping over the canal. That Okay, that's good. I think 227 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: we know the answer to this when you just answered it. 228 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 1: Compared to this time last year, are you happier or sadder? 229 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 1: I'm not happier or sadder, But I just have another adjustment. 230 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: I'm not happier or sad. It wasn't unhappy, you know. 231 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: I just decided to intentionally incorporate brightness every day at 232 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: all costs. It is a choice. It is a choice 233 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: because I focused more this year on the words that 234 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: come out of my mouth and the actions that I do. 235 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: They gotta be more. They got to coincide more. Because 236 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: if a man is as he's thinking, I wanted to 237 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: elevate my thinking this year.

I know. Well, I think 543 00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 1: he's talking about twenty eighteen as well. First he was 544 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:46,520 Speaker 1: dragged through ungodly hell for sitting with Trump for photo op. 545 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: That picture got out, yeah, that picture, yeah, yeah, and 546 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 1: then right, and then most recently, Pastor Gray revealed that 547 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,279 Speaker 1: he was cheating on his wife.

I flirted with 811 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 1: her and she flirted back, so I asked if I 812 00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:43,080 Speaker 1: could get her number. We exchanged numbers and I told 813 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 1: her I would call her later. On that day, I 814 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:48,400 Speaker 1: started out with a text to break the ice. She 815 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 1: told me that she was thirty one years old, and 816 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:53,839 Speaker 1: I felt funny about telling her my age right off, 817 00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 1: because I wanted to see if we were compatible. When 818 00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,880 Speaker 1: she asked my age, I told her that I was 819 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:03,200 Speaker 1: only forty five years old. I was testing the waters 820 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,800 Speaker 1: to see if she would run. She told me that 821 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 1: she didn't have a problem with my age, so it 822 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:11,640 Speaker 1: was on and pop. It fast forward to six months later, 823 00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:14,760 Speaker 1: and we're having a great time with each other. Luckily, 824 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 1: I am in good shape and I don't look my age, 825 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: so the subject of my age has never come up. Recently, 826 00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,799 Speaker 1: I met her family and she's met my children, which 827 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 1: shows that this is getting serious. So now I'm worried. 828 00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 1: I am torn between having this gorgeous younger woman in 829 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:37,480 Speaker 1: my life and losing her by telling her my real age. 830 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:39,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to mess with her head and make 831 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,840 Speaker 1: her think she's falling in love with a liar. Please advise, 832 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 1: all right, sir, Yeah, yeah, I just say, you know, 833 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:52,600 Speaker 1: tell her what you told us in the letter. You 834 00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:54,799 Speaker 1: gotta tell her something. Tell her what you told us 835 00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 1: in the letter. It hasn't come up yet, but you know, 836 00:55:57,800 --> 00:56:01,480 Speaker 1: I'm sure it will. So five isn't that old? You 837 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: say you look good for your age, You're in good shape. 838 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:05,640 Speaker 1: You guys are having a good time and all that. 839 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:09,880 Speaker 1: But you know, flying could be a problem depending on 840 00:56:10,200 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 1: the young lady. I mean, this is not a big lie. 841 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 1: It's not a bad lie or anything like that. So 842 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,719 Speaker 1: it's just a matter of how she's going to take 843 00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 1: it again. You guys are having fun. Now you're meeting 844 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,959 Speaker 1: each other's family. She met your kids, and you're six 845 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 1: months in. You're six months in. So I just say, 846 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 1: you know, do the right thing at some point and 847 00:56:30,239 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 1: just come clean. Just come clean. You didn't want her 848 00:56:33,480 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 1: to run. You got to tell her that you thought. 849 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:37,919 Speaker 1: You know, she may have thought you'd be too old 850 00:56:38,000 --> 00:56:41,560 Speaker 1: for her at thirty one. She's thirty one and you're 851 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:44,840 Speaker 1: fifty five. So I think if you're honest now, like 852 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: you know, especially if this relationship gets into the engagement 853 00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 1: stage and you guys start talking about marriage, I think 854 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 1: you should go ahead and come clean because at some 855 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: point this is gonna come out. But it's the way 856 00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 1: you tell her. And like I said, it's not a 857 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 1: big lie, it's not a bad but it is a 858 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,640 Speaker 1: lie that depends on how she feels about lying. She's 859 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 1: thirty one. You guys are having a great time. I 860 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:10,080 Speaker 1: think it'll be all right. Steve, well, dog, you shouldn't 861 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:13,719 Speaker 1: have lied. Let's just go on tell it truth. Now 862 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:19,160 Speaker 1: you got a whole another situation. Excuse me, excuse me, Steve, Yeah, 863 00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 1: you're okay, okay, because say just say what you just 864 00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 1: said again. I said, well, you shouldn't lie and you, 865 00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:34,160 Speaker 1: I mean you know in this situation right here, because 866 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: the reason he shouldn't lie or now I can mess 867 00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:44,520 Speaker 1: up everything. You should only lie to save yourself, that dog. 868 00:57:44,600 --> 00:57:47,920 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to tell you. You don't lie for 869 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 1: this hell, you lie to save yourself. These lies are 870 00:57:54,920 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: essential to the betterment and development of any relationship. Save yourself. 871 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:06,920 Speaker 1: Lying is necessary. Now you wasn't trying. You didn't even 872 00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:11,080 Speaker 1: know this woman. That's a life of no damn race, 873 00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:14,080 Speaker 1: that's a wasted life. You don't wasted the damn like 874 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:17,120 Speaker 1: what a good life? Now you can't tell another one 875 00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 1: because you don't blew your life earlier. You didn't even 876 00:58:20,520 --> 00:58:23,640 Speaker 1: know this healthful sitting up here. And you're a fifty 877 00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:26,040 Speaker 1: five year old black man. You've been divorced two years. 878 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,760 Speaker 1: Last summer you met the beautiful, curvy woman. I'm stopped 879 00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:33,600 Speaker 1: at the coffee. I'm flirting with it, she flirted back. Yeah, 880 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 1: ask him, could I get a number? We exchange number? 881 00:58:36,240 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 1: I told our calling later that day. Yeah, I started 882 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,080 Speaker 1: out with a text, you know, to break the ice. See, 883 00:58:42,120 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 1: that's when you know you old, when you say, I 884 00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 1: started out with a text to break the ice. The ice. 885 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 1: That's how they talked. Now. Yeah, I thought i'd break 886 00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 1: the ice with a text. She told me she was 887 00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:58,040 Speaker 1: thirty one. I felt funny about telling her my age 888 00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:02,160 Speaker 1: right off. Why you fifty five? You don't know him 889 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 1: now here? Because I wanted to see if we were compatible. 890 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:09,600 Speaker 1: That's a lie, thumb, that's a lie. You did not 891 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 1: telling you was fifty five. You could have seen if 892 00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:14,000 Speaker 1: you was fifty five, and you can still find out 893 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:17,880 Speaker 1: if y'all was compatible. You wanted to see if you 894 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 1: had a chance at getting it at forty five, because 895 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 1: you thought you didn't have a chance of getting it 896 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:28,160 Speaker 1: at fifty five. Yeah, that's why he said he would funny. 897 00:59:28,640 --> 00:59:34,000 Speaker 1: That's what it was, this men girl. Because I didn't 898 00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:37,080 Speaker 1: think it was a bad lie. Oh. He he had 899 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:39,160 Speaker 1: to lie because he didn't think he could get it 900 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 1: at fifty five. He wanted to see if he could 901 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:45,440 Speaker 1: get it at forty five. That's what the lie was. 902 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 1: It was all about getting it. This wasn't about no 903 00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:50,480 Speaker 1: seeing if we was compatible, about to give it. We 904 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 1: don't even know what that means. In the beginning, he 905 00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 1: didn't look at her, let me. I'll show you why, 906 00:59:57,560 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 1: he said he met her. I stopped to get caught 907 01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:01,960 Speaker 1: off film my way to work. I flirted with it. 908 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 1: She flirted back. Now, First, she said, last summer, I 909 01:00:05,240 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 1: met a beautiful and curvy lady one morning when I 910 01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:13,080 Speaker 1: stopped to get her. Beautiful and curvy lady. That's what 911 01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 1: he saw. I stopped to get coffee. I flirted with her. 912 01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: She flirted back. You know why, because she was beautiful 913 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:23,560 Speaker 1: and curved. I asked for a number thing exchange number. 914 01:00:23,920 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 1: You called it. You broke the ice. She told her 915 01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:28,400 Speaker 1: she was thirty one. You went old, Hell, she might 916 01:00:28,480 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: not like me because I'm fifty five. Let me try 917 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 1: forty five. If she had said forty five was too old, 918 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:36,080 Speaker 1: you came back and said, I was just joking.

I was testing the water to 921 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 1: see if she was running. I told her I was 922 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:48,880 Speaker 1: only forty five. I was testing water to see if 923 01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 1: she run. She told me she didn't have a problem 924 01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 1: with my age. That's because you said forty five food. 925 01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: Then the next line, so it was on and popping. 926 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:03,200 Speaker 1: You fifty five, you're too old to say that. Now 927 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:05,480 Speaker 1: he trying to talk young. Now it's an old and popper. 928 01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:07,880 Speaker 1: It ain't even popping for your ass in years. He's 929 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 1: trying to talk young. Yes, so now I was old 930 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:15,440 Speaker 1: and popping. He trying to talk forty five five, but 931 01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:17,720 Speaker 1: he looked forty five. So is it really a lie? 932 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 1: He's such a five.

Oh okay. 956 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 1: Then when she told you it was forty five, he 957 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 1: was testing the waters she had run. She told me 958 01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:54,960 Speaker 1: she ain't that a problem my age.

Recently, 965 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 1: I met a family. She hadn't met my children, which 966 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:27,640 Speaker 1: shows that this is getting serious.

Well, this was all due to the situation, 1066 01:09:46,320 --> 01:09:49,960 Speaker 1: you know of the players kneeling in support of Colin Kaepernick. Well, 1067 01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:54,760 Speaker 1: Travis has agreed to perform with Maroon five. So oh 1068 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 1: wait wait, so why did he get in trouble for performing? 1069 01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:02,520 Speaker 1: Because you know people are saying, yeah, they're gonna boycott 1070 01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 1: the game, and you know all of that. Rihanna down 1071 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:09,240 Speaker 1: the gage a lot of you know, select yeah, yeah, 1072 01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:11,920 Speaker 1: to support what was I mean?

Man. The players are playing 1076 01:10:23,439 --> 01:10:26,920 Speaker 1: in this game well, and Travis Scott is going to 1077 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:30,400 Speaker 1: perform now because um, like I said, he got a 1078 01:10:30,439 --> 01:10:33,120 Speaker 1: lot of backlash. But you're right, so you're saying, support 1079 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:36,680 Speaker 1: the players, Steve, the players is playing. I'm cool with 1080 01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:39,519 Speaker 1: the people that want to boycott it. Yeah, like Rihanna, Now, 1081 01:10:39,560 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 1: I think that's a cool statement for major stars like 1082 01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 1: that to say that to the NFL. But the players 1083 01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 1: is playing in the game now if y'all ain't boycotting 1084 01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. But I I'm not in agreement with 1085 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:59,880 Speaker 1: him getting flak for performing at the halftime of the 1086 01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:03,759 Speaker 1: super Bowl, for agreeing to do it right, for agreeing 1087 01:11:03,880 --> 01:11:07,240 Speaker 1: to do it now, if there are those who want 1088 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:11,040 Speaker 1: to boycott it, I'm okay with it. The problem with 1089 01:11:11,200 --> 01:11:15,280 Speaker 1: boycotting the super Bowl is if the players were boycotting 1090 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:19,439 Speaker 1: the super Bowl, I'd be with you. But the players 1091 01:11:19,479 --> 01:11:23,679 Speaker 1: are not boycotting the super Bowl. Yeah, they're going to work. Yeah, 1092 01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:26,719 Speaker 1: they're going to work. They show and if any team 1093 01:11:26,840 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 1: works to get to the super Bowl, I can assure 1094 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:33,040 Speaker 1: you there going well. And all of these players right 1095 01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:36,400 Speaker 1: now are willing to go to the super Bowl. Well, 1096 01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:39,719 Speaker 1: so I don't understand. Well, listen to this story, Steve, 1097 01:11:39,840 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 1: I mean, excuse me. There's even more to it than that. 1098 01:11:43,760 --> 01:11:46,280 Speaker 1: All right, A lot of people, you know, again, we 1099 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:49,959 Speaker 1: were saying they're they're boycotting it and supporting Colin Kaepernick. 1100 01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 1: But Travis has agreed to perform. You know, ma Room 1101 01:11:53,560 --> 01:11:55,680 Speaker 1: five was going to perform all along. A lot of 1102 01:11:56,160 --> 01:11:58,920 Speaker 1: people were saying, since they're in Atlanta, why is an 1103 01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:02,200 Speaker 1: usher performing? Why some of these Atlanta rappers performing things 1104 01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 1: like that? All right, but Maroon five is gonna be there. 1105 01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:06,760 Speaker 1: Travis Scott is going to be there. There is a 1106 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:10,479 Speaker 1: catch though, Now, Travis Scott told the NFL that they 1107 01:12:10,560 --> 01:12:12,800 Speaker 1: had to pony up if they wanted him to take 1108 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:15,920 Speaker 1: the stage. While halftime performers, you know, they don't get 1109 01:12:15,960 --> 01:12:19,320 Speaker 1: paid any money. They do not get paid. But together 1110 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:23,679 Speaker 1: Travis Scott and the NFL will donate half a million 1111 01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,479 Speaker 1: dollars to Dream Corps. What does Dream Corps? You say. 1112 01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:31,920 Speaker 1: It's a nonprofit organization described as a social justice accelerator 1113 01:12:32,160 --> 01:12:35,639 Speaker 1: which backs initiatives that close prison doors and open doors 1114 01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:41,000 Speaker 1: of opportunity for all. So that's a good thing. Yeah, 1115 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:43,040 Speaker 1: that's a really good thing right there. I didn't even 1116 01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:45,360 Speaker 1: know that. But I still support the brother. I just 1117 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:48,679 Speaker 1: think that if the players are playing in any game, 1118 01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:52,200 Speaker 1: I think us supporting it. I mean, I mean us boycott. 1119 01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:54,800 Speaker 1: It doesn't make but if you want a boycott, if 1120 01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:57,519 Speaker 1: that's your way. I think Rihanna is making a statement 1121 01:12:57,680 --> 01:13:00,360 Speaker 1: on behalf getting. That's cool if if you want to 1122 01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:02,280 Speaker 1: make the statement, but I don't think it should be 1123 01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:05,960 Speaker 1: required because some people are taking that stance that all 1124 01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:08,400 Speaker 1: people have to take the stand simply cause the players 1125 01:13:08,439 --> 01:13:10,679 Speaker 1: are playing in the game. Yeah, and Big Boy's gonna 1126 01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:13,320 Speaker 1: perform as well. He's gonna be up there too because 1127 01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:17,720 Speaker 1: he's from Atlanta. So it's the super Bowl. It's not 1128 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:23,200 Speaker 1: going to change. Listen to me. We can support Colin Kaepernick, 1129 01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:28,120 Speaker 1: which I do. On the problem is they flip the narrative. 1130 01:13:28,600 --> 01:13:33,479 Speaker 1: They made it about something that it wasn't. So now 1131 01:13:33,640 --> 01:13:38,000 Speaker 1: if we're no longer kneeling, that form of protest for 1132 01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:42,040 Speaker 1: that moment is over. But at once again, I can 1133 01:13:42,120 --> 01:13:46,400 Speaker 1: appreciate a Rihanna for turning it down to support. I 1134 01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:50,080 Speaker 1: like that about her, and that's wonderful, and any other 1135 01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:52,320 Speaker 1: big starter wants to do it, But I don't think 1136 01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:55,000 Speaker 1: we can ask everybody to do it, especially since the 1137 01:13:55,120 --> 01:13:58,800 Speaker 1: players are player. Okay, all right, it's my opinion. I 1138 01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,120 Speaker 1: mean you can have a different super deal how he 1139 01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:03,240 Speaker 1: made it work, Yeah, and then for him to do 1140 01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:05,800 Speaker 1: something like that, I just think it's a great smart move, 1141 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:10,439 Speaker 1: smart move, all right. Time for We're gonna move on 1142 01:14:10,560 --> 01:14:14,479 Speaker 1: and get onto a comedy Roulette.

I mean, I didn't 1195 01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:16,839 Speaker 1: know any of this was at this level of this extent. 1196 01:18:17,880 --> 01:18:20,320 Speaker 1: So when you make a bed, you got to lay 1197 01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:23,200 Speaker 1: in it. You got to lay in it. Man, it's yours. 1198 01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 1: So you know, man, this is the thing. I mean, 1199 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 1: I just use Bill Cosby as an example. Man, look 1200 01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:36,920 Speaker 1: at it. Eventually, Man, if it's been so many cases 1201 01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:42,599 Speaker 1: of corrupt behavior, something has to happen many something has 1202 01:18:42,640 --> 01:18:45,680 Speaker 1: to happen. And then listen to this. Steve ian La 1203 01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:49,800 Speaker 1: van Zandt recently revealed that r Kelly had contacted her 1204 01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:54,960 Speaker 1: for help before the docuseries came out on Lifetime Surviving 1205 01:18:55,080 --> 01:18:58,160 Speaker 1: r Kelly. She says she shut that down because r 1206 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:01,000 Speaker 1: Kelly wasn't ready, she said. Bottom line, she said, Art 1207 01:19:01,120 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 1: is not willing to tell the truth about the allegations. 1208 01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:07,599 Speaker 1: So until he can be honest, she cannot fix his life. 1209 01:19:07,680 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 1: She can't help them. And yah, she's bright. Oh you're 1210 01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:16,880 Speaker 1: not going to get her called upon a trick back. Yeah, no, no, no, no, 1211 01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:22,160 Speaker 1: no no no no, not that system. No true. Also, 1212 01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:26,639 Speaker 1: sources say r Kelly has been suffering from panic attacks. Bett, Yeah, 1213 01:19:26,920 --> 01:19:31,840 Speaker 1: that have been severe enough to require medical attention. Um. Yeah, 1214 01:19:32,040 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 1: the problem for R is that he's shocked by the 1215 01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 1: overwhelming backlash he's getting from celebrities in the general public. Yeah. 1216 01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 1: He also can't believe that people actually believe the accusers. 1217 01:19:43,760 --> 01:19:45,240 Speaker 1: I had that same thing having to me when I 1218 01:19:45,479 --> 01:19:49,800 Speaker 1: have a show, Shirley, same dawn panic. What you mean 1219 01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:54,320 Speaker 1: you didn't happen? How do you take away so much 1220 01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:57,240 Speaker 1: music that R Kelly, not just the music he did, 1221 01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:00,400 Speaker 1: music he did with other people. How do you how 1222 01:20:00,439 --> 01:20:02,960 Speaker 1: do you pull all up? I don't look, Look, I 1223 01:20:03,040 --> 01:20:06,960 Speaker 1: don't know that you can take his music. I mean 1224 01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:11,559 Speaker 1: it's done. You know. The sad part of it is, Um, 1225 01:20:13,680 --> 01:20:17,200 Speaker 1: the other side of his life Musically, he was a 1226 01:20:17,320 --> 01:20:20,120 Speaker 1: musical genius. Yeah, you're talking about separating the art from 1227 01:20:20,160 --> 01:20:26,720 Speaker 1: the artist. That's and that's what it's getting tough to do. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 1228 01:20:26,840 --> 01:20:29,880 Speaker 1: you know, separate the art from the artist as an artist. Man, 1229 01:20:30,040 --> 01:20:33,120 Speaker 1: perfectly fine. Yeah, I mean, and you're exactly right. He 1230 01:20:33,400 --> 01:20:37,960 Speaker 1: is a genius musically, no doubt. Feline Dion song, he's 1231 01:20:38,040 --> 01:20:41,240 Speaker 1: his vocals are not on that song, but he wrote it. Yeah, 1232 01:20:41,400 --> 01:20:46,160 Speaker 1: so she's pulling it and you know, yeah, Lady Gaga 1233 01:20:46,920 --> 01:20:51,600 Speaker 1: Michael Jackson, Jannet Jackson. I mean, the list goes on Maxwell, everybody, 1234 01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:54,960 Speaker 1: so you know, and and like you know, I hate 1235 01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 1: to be the one that's piling on, but you know what, man, 1236 01:20:58,479 --> 01:21:03,760 Speaker 1: it's I think the surprising it for me was. And 1237 01:21:03,880 --> 01:21:07,040 Speaker 1: if he's upset with me for believing all the people 1238 01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:13,160 Speaker 1: on the tape, I mean everybody does. You're trying to 1239 01:21:13,280 --> 01:21:16,800 Speaker 1: tell me no one set up there and spoke the truth. 1240 01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:22,600 Speaker 1: That's hard to believe, man, And listening to that the 1241 01:21:22,760 --> 01:21:26,880 Speaker 1: way they talked about it, it's hard to believe that 1242 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:31,479 Speaker 1: you can say all of these are false accusations. They 1243 01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 1: all saying the same thing. It's hard for everybody tell 1244 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:39,720 Speaker 1: the same lie. Right, they have to make up new 1245 01:21:39,840 --> 01:21:42,800 Speaker 1: lies because new lives don't truth. But you ain't got 1246 01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:45,600 Speaker 1: no fact behind it, or when your facts match up 1247 01:21:45,640 --> 01:21:47,560 Speaker 1: with day facts. When that lady went out there and 1248 01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:52,400 Speaker 1: got her daughter on camera, hold up dog, something going 1249 01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:56,519 Speaker 1: on him. Something is crazy. And I think you're right. 1250 01:21:56,600 --> 01:21:59,519 Speaker 1: That's why he was able to hide for so many 1251 01:21:59,640 --> 01:22:02,560 Speaker 1: years because of the music and because we loved his 1252 01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:06,840 Speaker 1: music so much. We just could not believe here's that. Yeah, 1253 01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,799 Speaker 1: that's what you want. That threw me when the girl 1254 01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:14,720 Speaker 1: on there that was saying when she found out that 1255 01:22:14,840 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 1: she was having sex with a fourteen year old girl, 1256 01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:21,840 Speaker 1: it made her sick. Yes, yes, right there. She has 1257 01:22:21,960 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 1: no reason to admit that on camp right, there's no 1258 01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:31,479 Speaker 1: benefit to her. What's a lie about that? No, no, no, no, 1259 01:22:31,600 --> 01:22:33,479 Speaker 1: no no, because you got to deal with too much 1260 01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:36,519 Speaker 1: after you say that. Oh my god, that one right 1261 01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:40,120 Speaker 1: there was that right there affected me. It did me 1262 01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:44,200 Speaker 1: too deeply because I went wow, man, because she has 1263 01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:48,320 Speaker 1: no reason to tell that lot. It's nothing in it 1264 01:22:48,479 --> 01:22:53,639 Speaker 1: for her to tell that lot. You know. But if 1265 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:57,040 Speaker 1: you're gonna stay in constant denial like you, I ain't 1266 01:22:57,120 --> 01:23:02,080 Speaker 1: ever done nothing wrong, then doc can't, can't nobody. If 1267 01:23:02,120 --> 01:23:04,320 Speaker 1: you know, you'd be better off throwing yourself at the 1268 01:23:04,400 --> 01:23:07,400 Speaker 1: mercy of the court. Yeah, I have a problem. I 1269 01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,560 Speaker 1: need prayer, I need saving. Youd be better off. You 1270 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:12,680 Speaker 1: could get some church people at least come around you 1271 01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:16,200 Speaker 1: and have an exorcist for you. You know, they're doing 1272 01:23:16,280 --> 01:23:19,479 Speaker 1: exorcism for suicide. But you know, with Steve, there's still 1273 01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:21,439 Speaker 1: a lot of people that are on his side. Though 1274 01:23:22,360 --> 01:23:26,479 Speaker 1: there's still he's still a lot of support. Yeah, And 1275 01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:33,000 Speaker 1: the story the Illinois Spring break right.

During the strike, the classes will be 1296 01:24:45,840 --> 01:24:51,479 Speaker 1: staffed by administrators, volunteers, and newly hired substitute teachers who 1297 01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:55,200 Speaker 1: are crossing the picket line. The union is demanding higher pay, 1298 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:59,600 Speaker 1: smaller classes, more counselors, more nurses, more library excuse me, 1299 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:03,080 Speaker 1: more brarians.

Yeah that's five. That's too minutes, 1302 01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 1: way too many. Man, that's too many. Now you can't teach. Yeah, 1303 01:25:19,240 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 1: it's just a lot. I agree, too much. Yeah, the 1304 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:26,800 Speaker 1: union waited as long as it could. Um a strike 1305 01:25:27,000 --> 01:25:30,439 Speaker 1: was the last resort. They had no choice. Students that 1306 01:25:30,520 --> 01:25:32,400 Speaker 1: don't listen like they used to back in the day. 1307 01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:37,800 Speaker 1: Something you get and you can't get. And so the 1308 01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:40,479 Speaker 1: teachers that are the subs, that are the teachers that 1309 01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:42,960 Speaker 1: are crossing the picket line, they're gonna get paid, right 1310 01:25:43,800 --> 01:25:48,559 Speaker 1: yea substitute.

This 1312 01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:56,479 Speaker 1: is terrible the way we do our teachers. It really, 1313 01:25:56,560 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 1: really is it really in this country. It's so much 1314 01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:03,479 Speaker 1: that teachers have to deal with our educators now to 1315 01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:08,480 Speaker 1: pay for stuff. Yes, remember when the teachers in Oklahoma 1316 01:26:08,640 --> 01:26:11,600 Speaker 1: went on strike behind that, Remember that they didn't have 1317 01:26:12,160 --> 01:26:15,840 Speaker 1: chairs and resources and deaths and books and all the 1318 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:20,080 Speaker 1: supplies that they need. When you decide to teach it 1319 01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:22,960 Speaker 1: something you really want to do, it's yeah, you don't 1320 01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:25,320 Speaker 1: go in there for the money. Yeah, You're going in 1321 01:26:25,439 --> 01:26:29,479 Speaker 1: because you have a a desire, a burning And it's 1322 01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:32,400 Speaker 1: such a gift to be a great teacher. It's some 1323 01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:36,759 Speaker 1: people that's been teaching, man, that has literally changed young's 1324 01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:41,559 Speaker 1: people's directions and lives.

And and but 1330 01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:10,080 Speaker 1: we treat them like they like like that nothing. We 1331 01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:13,280 Speaker 1: all we all have teachers that we just in mind 1332 01:27:13,400 --> 01:27:16,639 Speaker 1: that just made a big, a big, big difference. Yeah, 1333 01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:20,640 Speaker 1: and that was such a prestigious job. Uh, you know 1334 01:27:20,840 --> 01:27:23,640 Speaker 1: in black families growing up, that was such a prestigious. 1335 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:25,919 Speaker 1: She's a school teacher. He's a school he's a principal 1336 01:27:26,360 --> 01:27:33,400 Speaker 1: the first time out in public man.

Oh, when I was watching 1365 01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,519 Speaker 1: that video or that white dude jumping over that canal 1366 01:29:22,200 --> 01:29:30,200 Speaker 1: and he didn't make it that video.

It is a choice. 1377 01:30:13,840 --> 01:30:17,639 Speaker 1: It is a choice because I focus more this year 1378 01:30:18,120 --> 01:30:20,280 Speaker 1: on the words that come out of my mouth and 1379 01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:23,760 Speaker 1: the actions that I do. They gotta be more. They 1380 01:30:23,840 --> 01:30:26,920 Speaker 1: got to coincide more.

That if 1420 01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:16,639 Speaker 1: you change your attitude, you change your altitude. So I've 1421 01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:20,360 Speaker 1: been saying that to people for years and years, but 1422 01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:23,519 Speaker 1: I really had to refresh it with myself this year 1423 01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:27,400 Speaker 1: because I've been faced with some people giving me some 1424 01:33:27,680 --> 01:33:30,920 Speaker 1: news and I know that they're intent of giving me 1425 01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:36,000 Speaker 1: the news is to do damage to me.

I mean as soon as they hear 1430 01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:55,880 Speaker 1: something negative about you, or they can't wait to bring 1431 01:33:56,000 --> 01:34:00,240 Speaker 1: it to you. Well, I have people around me that 1432 01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:02,519 Speaker 1: I have people that I'm in business with that I 1433 01:34:02,680 --> 01:34:06,559 Speaker 1: like that who have never been comfortable with my position. 1434 01:34:07,040 --> 01:34:09,040 Speaker 1: You have people in your life that's just for some 1435 01:34:09,280 --> 01:34:12,440 Speaker 1: reason you don't even know why, they're just not comfortable 1436 01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:15,840 Speaker 1: with you being in the position you in. Everybody got 1437 01:34:15,920 --> 01:34:18,240 Speaker 1: them in their life. If you take close survey, you'll 1438 01:34:18,280 --> 01:34:22,800 Speaker 1: find someone who's just not comfortable with you being in 1439 01:34:22,880 --> 01:34:25,840 Speaker 1: the position you in. They had nothing putting there, nothing 1440 01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:29,120 Speaker 1: to do with putting you there, nothing, they didn't help 1441 01:34:29,200 --> 01:34:32,160 Speaker 1: you get there. They just got a problem with where 1442 01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:39,000 Speaker 1: you are. So I'm in business, like I say, with people, 1443 01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:46,200 Speaker 1: and I've been watching them make decisions towards me, and 1444 01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:52,679 Speaker 1: it's been with ill intent. But you know what, having 1445 01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:57,880 Speaker 1: a relationship I have with this God, I serve I 1446 01:34:57,960 --> 01:35:01,799 Speaker 1: don't really pay too much attention to them folks, because 1447 01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:05,040 Speaker 1: with all the ill intent they got with all them 1448 01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:10,080 Speaker 1: the malice. I mean, I'm watching people cut off their 1449 01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:14,439 Speaker 1: nose despite their face. I'm watching it right in front 1450 01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:18,040 Speaker 1: of my very eyes. You've all seen it too, don't 1451 01:35:18,080 --> 01:35:21,600 Speaker 1: you know? Somebody who's tried to do something to you, 1452 01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:27,320 Speaker 1: even if it meant hurting and destroying themselves, they think 1453 01:35:27,360 --> 01:35:30,679 Speaker 1: it's more important to watch you fall. Have you ever 1454 01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:33,640 Speaker 1: seen a person dig a hole for you, but have 1455 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:36,559 Speaker 1: to dig another one right beside it, and they ended 1456 01:35:36,640 --> 01:35:40,640 Speaker 1: up falling in the hole and you walked away. Everybody 1457 01:35:40,720 --> 01:35:45,200 Speaker 1: didn't seen that. I'm living it, and what I've come 1458 01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:50,000 Speaker 1: to come to the conclusion I came to this today. 1459 01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:57,200 Speaker 1: You can't break what you didn't make, and you can't 1460 01:35:57,240 --> 01:36:02,680 Speaker 1: take what you didn't give. And you know what, I'm 1461 01:36:02,720 --> 01:36:06,479 Speaker 1: gonna say that to somebody real soon. I'm gonna tell 1462 01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:09,920 Speaker 1: him though, but not in a mean way, but in 1463 01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:13,120 Speaker 1: a way that the God I served gives me the 1464 01:36:13,240 --> 01:36:16,920 Speaker 1: confidence to say that you can't break what you didn't make, 1465 01:36:17,680 --> 01:36:20,400 Speaker 1: and you can't take what you what you didn't give. 1466 01:36:21,160 --> 01:36:24,160 Speaker 1: I know some people in my life, man, who think 1467 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:26,640 Speaker 1: that they can make moves to break me. But how 1468 01:36:26,680 --> 01:36:28,960 Speaker 1: you gonna break me when you ain't make me?

They can't break you, folks, because 1471 01:36:36,240 --> 01:36:40,639 Speaker 1: they didn't make you. Folks. Get comfortable with that notion. 1472 01:36:41,400 --> 01:36:46,000 Speaker 1: Be assured in that notion right there. Stop.

You can't take 1477 01:37:00,040 --> 01:37:03,599 Speaker 1: what you didn't give. You didn't give me my life, 1478 01:37:04,479 --> 01:37:07,679 Speaker 1: You can't take mine.
