<v Speaker 1>Envy Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are to Breakfast

0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Club is getting some front page news that over the

0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>weekend NBA Milwaukee Bucks beat the Celtics one on one

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>eighty nine. The Warriors beat the at least one seventeen

0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:04.720
<v Speaker 1>one sixteen. Yeah, the Celtics a Buck series. I don't

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:06.520
<v Speaker 1>think that's gonna be as entertaining as I thought it

0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:07.800
<v Speaker 1>would be. I was thinking it was gonna be a

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.920
<v Speaker 1>seven game series. But Celtics have no answer for you honest.

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:12.680
<v Speaker 1>They can't stop be honest. And if they can't find

0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:14.160
<v Speaker 1>an answer for your honest, I don't think it'll be

0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 1>a long series. Not even Yannas brook Lopez too. It

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 1>just seemed like he just grabbed everything that come up

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>the room. Everything yeah, but you honest, he's just unstoppable,

0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:26.960
<v Speaker 1>damn the on off Yes he is now and Grizzlies

0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:29.080
<v Speaker 1>and Warriors. That was a great game, too, great game

0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:31.280
<v Speaker 1>came out to the last blasket. Yeah. I don't think

0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Grizzlies have enough offense for the Golden State Warriors, honestly.

0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:38.160
<v Speaker 1>And you know you can't kick Draymond Green out of

0:04:38.200 --> 0:04:40.279
<v Speaker 1>every game, so I don't know how close those games

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:43.599
<v Speaker 1>are gonna be once Draymond is on the floor for

0:04:43.640 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 1>a whole game. So we'll see, all right. Well, over

0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:48.839
<v Speaker 1>the weekend, was the White House corresponded dinner? Did you

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:52.400
<v Speaker 1>see anything about it? Charlemagne? I had people over the house,

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 1>so I was watching it, but like not really watching it.

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:57.400
<v Speaker 1>Plus I just was, you know, sitting there thinking what

0:04:57.440 --> 0:04:59.920
<v Speaker 1>the hell we got to celebrate right now? Why everybody's

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:03.440
<v Speaker 1>laughing over thousand dollars dinner? Pleas at a time like this.

0:05:03.920 --> 0:05:06.080
<v Speaker 1>I did see fat Jody. I thought that was fat Joe.

0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:09.640
<v Speaker 1>Went to the correspond Dentna, yes, that's not fat Jodia.

0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:12.839
<v Speaker 1>Now we have audio. He's supposed to do front page dudes,

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:14.400
<v Speaker 1>So we don't know what this audio is. I believe

0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:17.680
<v Speaker 1>it's Biden at the dinner. Is that what it is? Right? Yes?

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:19.719
<v Speaker 1>Red said, yes, all right, well let's listen to it.

0:05:20.240 --> 0:05:25.040
<v Speaker 1>The industry is changing significantly, but it matters. The truth matters.

0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:29.200
<v Speaker 1>American democracy is not a reality show. It's not a

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 1>reality show. It's reality itself. The reality is that we

0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>are a great country. Our future is bright. It's not guaranteed,

0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:42.480
<v Speaker 1>because democracy is never guaranteed. That's to be earned, it

0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:46.000
<v Speaker 1>has to be defended, that's to be protected. You've heard

0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 1>me say many times there's not a damn thing this

0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:52.360
<v Speaker 1>country can do when we stand united and do it together.

0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 1>And I know we can do anything we want to do. Yeah,

0:05:57.680 --> 0:05:59.800
<v Speaker 1>So I'm still trying to figure out who's handing? Was

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:02.400
<v Speaker 1>can though? Did he ever talk about who's hand wishing?

0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:04.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know me. I enjoyed some of what I

0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>saw at the White House Correspondent dinner, But once again,

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:08.320
<v Speaker 1>what the hell we got to celebrate? Like, what's funny?

0:06:08.360 --> 0:06:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Inflation through the roof, folks trying to figure out how

0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:13.000
<v Speaker 1>to keep gasing their tank, food on their plate. You know,

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.920
<v Speaker 1>so many campaign promises haven't been kept. Like what we

0:06:16.960 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 1>got to celebrate? Well, he does joke on Fox News.

0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I told my grandkids and Pete Bo just they could

0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:26.360
<v Speaker 1>stay up late and watch this show tonight. Tonight we

0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:29.279
<v Speaker 1>come here and answer a very important question in everybody's mind.

0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Why in hill are we still doing this? I know

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:37.400
<v Speaker 1>the other questions about whether we should gather here tonight

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:40.359
<v Speaker 1>because of COVID. Well, we're here to show the country

0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:43.880
<v Speaker 1>that we're getting through this pandemic. Plus everyone had to

0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:48.080
<v Speaker 1>prove it. They're fully vaccinated and boosted. So if you're

0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 1>at home watching this and you're wondering how to do that,

0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:55.680
<v Speaker 1>just contact your favorite Fox News reporter. They're all here,

0:06:56.320 --> 0:07:01.599
<v Speaker 1>vaccinated and boosted. Oh them, Okay, all right. Well. He

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:05.320
<v Speaker 1>also talks about his approval rating. Thank you Steve for

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 1>that introduction, and a special thanks to the forty two

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:12.240
<v Speaker 1>percent of you actually applauded. I'm really excited to be

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.520
<v Speaker 1>here tonight. Were the only group of Americans with a

0:07:14.600 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>lower approval ready than I have. That's the first time

0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:23.760
<v Speaker 1>president attended this dinner in six years. It's understandable we

0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:28.960
<v Speaker 1>had a horrible plague followed by two years of COVID chest.

0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Imagine if my predecessor came to this dinner this year now,

0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:41.160
<v Speaker 1>that would really have been a real coup if that occurred. Laughing. Now,

0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:42.880
<v Speaker 1>I'll cry after the mid terms when they lose the

0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:46.440
<v Speaker 1>House in the centate. You hit me, Democrats laugh now,

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:48.600
<v Speaker 1>cry after the mid terms when y'all lose the House

0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.840
<v Speaker 1>in the Centate. Now, I know a lot of people

0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:53.720
<v Speaker 1>spoke that the person who's hand he was trying to

0:07:53.760 --> 0:07:57.960

<v Speaker 1>both to Harry and Evelyn Lazada responding, all right, we'll

0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:51.480
<v Speaker 1>ye on the Breakfast Club. All right, well, Joe Button

0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.280
<v Speaker 1>on his podcast spoke about the Megan the Stallion versus

0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Tory Lane's issues and Make the Stallion sitting down with

0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Gail King. Here's what he had to say. It is

0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:03.000
<v Speaker 1>such thing as victim bullying. Exactly what I'm saying. Chad

0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Johnson Ocho Sinkle's ex wife, he's in a whole new relationship.

0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:09.560
<v Speaker 1>He's married, he's whatever he is. He's happy, sty happy.

0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:13.280
<v Speaker 1>She's happy for years. Any chance, anytime his name came up,

0:15:13.800 --> 0:15:15.760
<v Speaker 1>she popped up. It had nothing to do with her,

0:15:15.800 --> 0:15:18.320
<v Speaker 1>but she popped up and said, hey, he did this.

0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:22.640
<v Speaker 1>It didn't matter the rehabilitation he'd done. It didn't matter

0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:28.080
<v Speaker 1>the changes that he's made, the apologies both public and private.

0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Yo dog for the next seven, eight, nine, ten years.

0:15:31.600 --> 0:15:34.240
<v Speaker 1>Every time I do something positive, you're gonna pop up

0:15:34.640 --> 0:15:37.200
<v Speaker 1>with this victim story and you are the victim. So

0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:42.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't take that away. But that's bullying, all right.

0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Take But He also criticized make the Stallion for speaking

0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:49.040
<v Speaker 1>with Gail King instead of a hip hop outlet. He said,

0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:51.480
<v Speaker 1>there are too many hip hop outlets. Go to somebody

0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:54.080
<v Speaker 1>who understands all of this, is keeping up with all

0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:56.600
<v Speaker 1>of this and comprovised and type of pushback if you're

0:15:56.600 --> 0:16:00.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to come off organic. Well, Evelyn Lazada, I was

0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:01.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna ask what did you think about what did you

0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:06.240
<v Speaker 1>think about the victim bullying? And what he said, Well,

0:16:06.280 --> 0:16:09.160
<v Speaker 1>she is a victim and she's allowed to express whatever

0:16:09.200 --> 0:16:12.080
<v Speaker 1>she wants to fail. If she feels triggered every time

0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 1>he says something and wants to respond to that, she

0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:18.920
<v Speaker 1>has every right to do that. What happened happened, and

0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:21.960
<v Speaker 1>if that's what she needs to do, I'm okay with it. Yeah,

0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:23.720
<v Speaker 1>you're not a bully if you were a victim if

0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:25.480
<v Speaker 1>somebody did you wrong, you can speak on it as

0:16:25.600 --> 0:16:28.040
<v Speaker 1>much as possible. Yeah, I don't think that's a term.

0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.440
<v Speaker 1>You can't be a victim and a bully. If every

0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.520
<v Speaker 1>time you know something triggers you, you mentioned it or

0:16:32.560 --> 0:16:35.840
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about it. I don't. I mean, hey, I

0:16:35.840 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 1>could be wrong. All right. Well, Evelyn Lazada did respond

0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:41.720
<v Speaker 1>to what Joe Button had to say, and here's what

0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:43.680
<v Speaker 1>she had to say. If you're going to use your

0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:49.560
<v Speaker 1>platform to discuss domestic violence or bring up somebody's domestic

0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:52.880
<v Speaker 1>violence incident, I think that you need to be compassionate

0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:58.240
<v Speaker 1>about all of the people that this has affected. I

0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:00.800
<v Speaker 1>think you also need to know and understand and that

0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.400
<v Speaker 1>this could be very triggering. If we're going to have

0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:07.679
<v Speaker 1>these conversations, we need to have real conversations, like how

0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:12.680
<v Speaker 1>do we heal from this? Use your platform for good,

0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:18.600
<v Speaker 1>not to make light of something that is very, very serious.

0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:21.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, I just had to say something because I'm

0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:25.480
<v Speaker 1>not going to allow someone to control my story and

0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:30.320
<v Speaker 1>my narrative. Now in the shade Room, Evelyn also posted

0:17:30.520 --> 0:17:33.240
<v Speaker 1>with that clip, you should have used yourself an example

0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:36.320
<v Speaker 1>and kept us the f out of it. Foh and

0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Joe Button responded, he said, we were discussing reactive abuse,

0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:43.800
<v Speaker 1>not seemingly comparing situations. Prayers to everyone involved, and then

0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:46.200
<v Speaker 1>she said, my life matters, so I spoke up domestic

0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:49.119
<v Speaker 1>violence survivor. I'm going to keep screaming to the heavens

0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:52.199
<v Speaker 1>no matter what another abuser has to say about my

0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:56.160
<v Speaker 1>past abusive relationship. And then to hear He also chimed

0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:58.520
<v Speaker 1>in and said, let's not forget at Joe Button should

0:17:59.720 --> 0:18:02.480
<v Speaker 1>the rail to Harry post Hers and to Harry said

0:18:02.840 --> 0:18:05.720
<v Speaker 1>the biggest effing nerves on earth. This is so wrong,

0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:09.320
<v Speaker 1>so unfair, but yet he still continues having a mic.

0:18:09.720 --> 0:18:12.639
<v Speaker 1>And then she also addressed Evan Lozada on her Instagram

0:18:12.640 --> 0:18:15.320
<v Speaker 1>as well. She said, I am so sorry nobody should

0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:17.359
<v Speaker 1>ever have to go through this. Over a repost of

0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:20.679
<v Speaker 1>Evan Lozada's photos, she said, I'm shaking. He fractured my

0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:23.360
<v Speaker 1>rib and punched me in my face. I don't have pictures,

0:18:23.359 --> 0:18:28.639
<v Speaker 1>but I'm sure his other exes do. So that definitely

0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:32.360
<v Speaker 1>started a lot of people having conversations and feeling triggered

0:18:32.400 --> 0:18:36.240
<v Speaker 1>by those comments. All Right, and Playboy Cardi his concert

0:18:36.280 --> 0:18:39.240
<v Speaker 1>was shut down after fans rushed the stage and broke

0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:42.040
<v Speaker 1>the barricade while he was only two songs in. This

0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:45.920
<v Speaker 1>was at West Hollywood Smokers Club Festival and they had

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:48.480
<v Speaker 1>to just shut it down. Kid Cutty two Chains while

0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:51.879
<v Speaker 1>Joey badass A sat Rocky we Go Nasty with Khalifa

0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:54.640
<v Speaker 1>chief Keef all on the bill. But not everybody made

0:18:54.640 --> 0:18:58.119
<v Speaker 1>it through their set time without disturbances. As we told you,

0:18:58.160 --> 0:19:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Playboy Carti they had to cut his mic phone and

0:19:00.840 --> 0:19:03.080
<v Speaker 1>a team member was sent out to address the audience

0:19:03.080 --> 0:19:05.880
<v Speaker 1>and asked him to calm down so that Playboy Carti

0:19:05.920 --> 0:19:08.640
<v Speaker 1>could resume his work. They asked them to step back.

0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:11.480
<v Speaker 1>They said there were no injuries, sustain nobody was arrested,

0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:15.959
<v Speaker 1>but they said everybody just had to make sure everything

0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:19.640
<v Speaker 1>was good. And yes, so everybody got to calm down.

0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:23.960
<v Speaker 1>It did look dangerous. Did they finish the show? Some

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:27.000
<v Speaker 1>people got to perform, some people didn't. But again, you know,

0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:31.359
<v Speaker 1>seeing what could potentially happen, making sure there's no injuries,

0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:34.760
<v Speaker 1>that's the most important thing. They did say. Rihanna was

0:19:34.800 --> 0:19:37.560
<v Speaker 1>back there hanging out in dancing backstage as well too,

0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:41.240

<v Speaker 1>NBA can't play easy. Yes, so yesterday us marshals off

0:21:36.320 --> 0:21:38.560
<v Speaker 1>at the ten thousand dollars reward, and that is for

0:21:38.600 --> 0:21:41.800
<v Speaker 1>information to help catchure the Alabama inmate who vanished. He

0:21:41.960 --> 0:21:45.040
<v Speaker 1>vanished with the corrections officers. He was transporting him to

0:21:45.200 --> 0:21:49.320
<v Speaker 1>court for an appointment that never even existed. Casey White

0:21:49.400 --> 0:21:51.560
<v Speaker 1>is thirty eight years old. He was arrested in twenty twenty.

0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:53.800
<v Speaker 1>He was tried to two counts of capital murder. A

0:21:53.920 --> 0:21:55.960
<v Speaker 1>thirty said he was a murder for hire in a

0:21:56.040 --> 0:21:59.520
<v Speaker 1>case they went cold for nearly five years now. Indications

0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:02.359
<v Speaker 1>are that White, who was the corrections officer and she

0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:04.919
<v Speaker 1>worked there by the Way for twenty five years, assisted

0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:08.000
<v Speaker 1>in the escape, but they don't know whether she did

0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.560
<v Speaker 1>so willingly or if he forced her to do so.

0:22:10.960 --> 0:22:12.680
<v Speaker 1>There has been a man hunt launch for the two

0:22:12.720 --> 0:22:14.919
<v Speaker 1>of them, and they both have the same last name,

0:22:15.160 --> 0:22:17.680
<v Speaker 1>Vicky White and Casey Cole White, but they are not related.

0:22:18.040 --> 0:22:20.720
<v Speaker 1>The escaped inmates believed to be a serious threat to

0:22:20.760 --> 0:22:23.840
<v Speaker 1>the corrections officer and to the public, so they are

0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:30.919
<v Speaker 1>asking for any help in that situation. That's a scary

0:22:30.960 --> 0:22:33.000
<v Speaker 1>thing now to also trying to investigate whether the two

0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:36.720
<v Speaker 1>of them had a prior relationship. The Sheriff's office realized

0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:39.200
<v Speaker 1>that he was missing and that the corrections officer was

0:22:39.240 --> 0:22:42.080
<v Speaker 1>missing when she wasn't answering her phone and calls went

0:22:42.119 --> 0:22:44.439
<v Speaker 1>straight to voicemail. So they said, every employee in the

0:22:44.520 --> 0:22:48.640
<v Speaker 1>office is shocked right now. And a woman in Maryland

0:22:48.680 --> 0:22:52.080
<v Speaker 1>returned home from vacation to find a couple laying in

0:22:52.160 --> 0:22:56.720
<v Speaker 1>her bed and property worth tens of thousands of dollars missing.

0:22:57.080 --> 0:23:00.639
<v Speaker 1>We saw this on social media. Here's what happen. Not

0:23:00.720 --> 0:23:02.840
<v Speaker 1>only were they in my home, everything in my home

0:23:02.960 --> 0:23:05.960
<v Speaker 1>was gone, stuff with my bed because he details how

0:23:06.000 --> 0:23:07.800
<v Speaker 1>he loved my bed so much. I mean, I'm like,

0:23:08.200 --> 0:23:11.040
<v Speaker 1>who are you? When he says my name, he like,

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:12.520
<v Speaker 1>you didn't pay your rent? I'm like, what are you

0:23:12.600 --> 0:23:16.760
<v Speaker 1>talking about? I paid my rent? All right. So she

0:23:16.800 --> 0:23:19.200
<v Speaker 1>came home from vacation. This was in green Bout, Maryland.

0:23:19.640 --> 0:23:22.200
<v Speaker 1>Her front door was damaged, her possessions were cleared out

0:23:22.200 --> 0:23:24.080
<v Speaker 1>of the apartment, and she found a couple laying on

0:23:24.119 --> 0:23:27.240
<v Speaker 1>her bed together, a blackmail adult and a white female.

0:23:27.320 --> 0:23:29.640
<v Speaker 1>That was the only piece of furniture left in the home. Yes,

0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:32.040
<v Speaker 1>v So she paid the rent and he just took

0:23:32.040 --> 0:23:37.480
<v Speaker 1>everything out. He said that she didn't pay the rent,

0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:39.280
<v Speaker 1>and she's like, what are you talking about? I did

0:23:39.320 --> 0:23:42.080
<v Speaker 1>pay my rent. So the suspects are still on the run.

0:23:42.160 --> 0:23:46.280
<v Speaker 1>So basically, they broke in, made up some story, and

0:23:46.880 --> 0:23:49.200
<v Speaker 1>she caught them in the house and they stole belongings

0:23:49.200 --> 0:23:55.199
<v Speaker 1>worth almost fifty thousand dollars. Wow. Can you imagine you

0:23:55.280 --> 0:23:59.040
<v Speaker 1>come home and they laying in your bed. If they

0:23:59.119 --> 0:24:00.640
<v Speaker 1>still in the cryp, they should be on the loose.

0:24:00.800 --> 0:24:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I know where they had they lay in my bad

0:24:04.560 --> 0:24:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Now they left. Oh yeah, she called the police, but

0:24:07.280 --> 0:24:09.720
<v Speaker 1>they were gone and they're still on the run there still.

0:24:09.800 --> 0:24:11.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh so they wasn't supposed to be there. I thought

0:24:11.840 --> 0:24:13.680
<v Speaker 1>the way the story was described, I thought they got

0:24:13.720 --> 0:24:15.400
<v Speaker 1>kicked out of the house and they moved a new

0:24:15.480 --> 0:24:19.040
<v Speaker 1>couple in. So these were just squatters. Squatters up. Yes,

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:23.840
<v Speaker 1>she came on a vacation. They cleared everything out all right. Now.

0:24:23.880 --> 0:24:26.760
<v Speaker 1>A woman in Alabama, Jacqueline summer Bear, she was an

0:24:26.800 --> 0:24:29.680

0:24:32.200 --> 0:24:34.760
<v Speaker 1>by those same dogs. She was killed by the dogs

0:24:34.800 --> 0:24:39.359
<v Speaker 1>too in the northwestern part of Alabama. She was responding

0:24:39.400 --> 0:24:42.720
<v Speaker 1>to that call, and she was pronounced dead on Friday.

0:24:43.480 --> 0:24:45.879
<v Speaker 1>She was They said they believed she was trying to

0:24:45.880 --> 0:24:49.320
<v Speaker 1>contact the dog's owner. They identified the dog's owner as

0:24:49.400 --> 0:24:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Brandy Dowdy. When the dogs killed her. They reported that

0:24:53.080 --> 0:24:56.240
<v Speaker 1>she was a fifty eight year old environmental supervisor, a

0:24:56.280 --> 0:24:59.840
<v Speaker 1>longtime employee of the Public Health Department. She was following

0:25:00.040 --> 0:25:01.840
<v Speaker 1>up on an incident earlier in the week when where

0:25:01.880 --> 0:25:04.560
<v Speaker 1>the dogs attacked a woman who was walking. That woman

0:25:04.600 --> 0:25:09.640
<v Speaker 1>remains hospitalized in Mississippi. When officers arrived on the scene,

0:25:09.680 --> 0:25:12.560
<v Speaker 1>they said several dogs started attacking the residence. One of

0:25:12.560 --> 0:25:15.280
<v Speaker 1>them sustained minor injuries and some of the dogs had

0:25:18.920 --> 0:25:21.640
<v Speaker 1>and is being held without bail, according to public records.

0:25:22.800 --> 0:25:26.320
<v Speaker 1>Really sad situation. You're doing your job, going to investigate,

0:25:26.359 --> 0:25:28.879
<v Speaker 1>and then she ended up getting killed by those dogs.

0:25:29.600 --> 0:25:32.520

<v Speaker 1>good man. How y'all doing this morning? Well, since you've

0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:22.359
<v Speaker 1>been here last, you're not with tim z right, you

0:26:22.440 --> 0:26:25.240
<v Speaker 1>signed to deal with the Ringer, Yes one to Oscar. Yes,

0:26:25.520 --> 0:26:28.679
<v Speaker 1>now you have a new book, fat crazy man. Yeah.

0:26:28.720 --> 0:26:30.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean I know this because you're my guy. But

0:26:30.480 --> 0:26:32.680
<v Speaker 1>just for the people, what made you feel like it

0:26:32.720 --> 0:26:35.399
<v Speaker 1>was time for you to exit from tim z um?

0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:39.560
<v Speaker 1>Well two things. Number One, they exited me. We should

0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:42.800
<v Speaker 1>be you was gonna leave anyway. So this is the

0:26:42.840 --> 0:26:45.640
<v Speaker 1>situation with that I get fired from TIMS. Just put

0:26:45.640 --> 0:26:48.760
<v Speaker 1>it out there in October. But as you know, I

0:26:48.840 --> 0:26:52.480
<v Speaker 1>was already gone basically because I didn't renew my deal.

0:26:52.520 --> 0:26:54.359
<v Speaker 1>They didn't renew my contract, So why would they fire

0:26:54.359 --> 0:26:55.840
<v Speaker 1>you if they knew you weren't coming back and not

0:26:55.960 --> 0:26:58.119
<v Speaker 1>just let you leave. That's why they would fire me.

0:26:58.280 --> 0:27:01.159
<v Speaker 1>So after the Kanye thing happens, right, like, we have

0:27:01.200 --> 0:27:02.840
<v Speaker 1>a couple of meetings with a couple of people, and

0:27:02.920 --> 0:27:05.679
<v Speaker 1>I remember I had a conversation one time with Harvey.

0:27:05.920 --> 0:27:08.000
<v Speaker 1>I remember telling them I was like I don't see

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:11.760
<v Speaker 1>myself having my own television show and then coming back

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:14.560
<v Speaker 1>and working at TMZ and still being at TMZ in

0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the days, right, And he was like, huh whatever. And

0:27:17.240 --> 0:27:19.280
<v Speaker 1>then the next time I just straight up, straight up

0:27:19.320 --> 0:27:22.000
<v Speaker 1>told him, I was like, I'm not resigning with Tmzay

0:27:22.200 --> 0:27:24.399
<v Speaker 1>like when that, like, when this is up, think about it.

0:27:24.440 --> 0:27:27.359
<v Speaker 1>After this, I'm coming off to my profile is up.

0:27:27.560 --> 0:27:30.359
<v Speaker 1>I have all of these other opportunities, and you just

0:27:30.400 --> 0:27:32.439
<v Speaker 1>want to grow and be able to do more things.

0:27:32.480 --> 0:27:34.760
<v Speaker 1>And so I said, I'm not I'm not resigning. So

0:27:34.800 --> 0:27:37.440
<v Speaker 1>they knew that, and coming down to the end of it,

0:27:37.560 --> 0:27:39.840
<v Speaker 1>it was things was just so tense between him and

0:27:39.920 --> 0:27:42.399
<v Speaker 1>set you up. They set you up. They set you up.

0:27:42.440 --> 0:27:44.399
<v Speaker 1>They put you in a position to where you had

0:27:44.720 --> 0:27:48.720
<v Speaker 1>to defend yourself kids the white man at TMZ, and

0:27:48.760 --> 0:27:51.480
<v Speaker 1>then they find you for it. Well whatever, but what

0:27:51.560 --> 0:27:56.360
<v Speaker 1>I love That's what I saw. But Okay, what ended

0:27:56.440 --> 0:27:59.560
<v Speaker 1>up happening is the way it went to me. Me

0:27:59.600 --> 0:28:01.800
<v Speaker 1>and my who's still a friend of mine, men Mike

0:28:01.920 --> 0:28:03.879
<v Speaker 1>have a situation where we're going back and forth on

0:28:03.920 --> 0:28:06.800
<v Speaker 1>the show. So I go over to Mike. Probably something

0:28:06.840 --> 0:28:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I shouldn't have done come up behind him and say, look,

0:28:08.880 --> 0:28:10.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't appreciate it being to talk to you like that.

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Blah blah blah. You know who I am. Whatever, say something,

0:28:14.840 --> 0:28:18.400
<v Speaker 1>I leave right. Charles is laughing at first. Then Charles says,

0:28:18.480 --> 0:28:20.000
<v Speaker 1>van go home. That's the last time I was ever

0:28:20.040 --> 0:28:24.520
<v Speaker 1>in TMZ. So I leave it. I go home, and

0:28:24.880 --> 0:28:26.560
<v Speaker 1>they hit me up like yo, well you put your

0:28:26.560 --> 0:28:29.440
<v Speaker 1>hands on his shoulders, so you gotta go. You're out.

0:28:29.480 --> 0:28:31.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, all right, cool. We both know that it

0:28:31.720 --> 0:28:33.280
<v Speaker 1>was coming to the end of the line anyway, and

0:28:33.320 --> 0:28:36.000
<v Speaker 1>it's on camera, not like people didn't see it. Yeah people, Yeah,

0:28:36.000 --> 0:28:38.120
<v Speaker 1>people saw it. And people can make up their own

0:28:38.160 --> 0:28:40.120
<v Speaker 1>minds about whether or not you think I'm a violent,

0:28:40.200 --> 0:28:43.640
<v Speaker 1>crazy ignorant, but it's right there for you. So then

0:28:44.280 --> 0:28:47.640
<v Speaker 1>that Saturday, my co workers throw me a going away

0:28:47.680 --> 0:28:49.440
<v Speaker 1>party because they didn't get a chance to say goodbye.

0:28:50.040 --> 0:28:52.320
<v Speaker 1>The guy who I was in the altercation with Mike

0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:57.760
<v Speaker 1>is at the going away party. It wasn't an altercation.

0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:00.800
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't an altercation at all they're calling it was

0:29:00.800 --> 0:29:03.000
<v Speaker 1>not an altercase. Wasn't an altar maybe the white people.

0:29:03.320 --> 0:29:05.440
<v Speaker 1>So anyway, they told me he's going away party Monday.

0:29:05.440 --> 0:29:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I get a call from the people that Pay six

0:29:07.520 --> 0:29:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and they say, hey, we're running this in Pay six.

0:29:10.000 --> 0:29:11.320
<v Speaker 1>We want to talk about the fact that you would

0:29:11.320 --> 0:29:14.320
<v Speaker 1>dismissed right the whole nine. The article comes out and

0:29:14.400 --> 0:29:17.160
<v Speaker 1>it looks good for me. I think that embarrassed them.

0:29:17.240 --> 0:29:19.040
<v Speaker 1>I had nothing to do with to pay six. All Right,

0:29:19.200 --> 0:29:21.120
<v Speaker 1>you know what, I want you to talk about triggers, right,

0:29:21.120 --> 0:29:23.400
<v Speaker 1>because we're talking about triggers and being traumatized. Talk about

0:29:23.400 --> 0:29:26.560
<v Speaker 1>what led to you telling him. Don't talk about that, Okay.

0:29:26.600 --> 0:29:29.800
<v Speaker 1>So this is what happened that morning. There's a story,

0:29:29.840 --> 0:29:32.200
<v Speaker 1>and the story has to do with Ellen DeGeneres being

0:29:32.240 --> 0:29:35.480
<v Speaker 1>friends with George Bush and why it's cool that Michelle

0:29:35.480 --> 0:29:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Obama was friendly with George Bush. Listen, if you have fuzzy,

0:29:38.320 --> 0:29:41.440
<v Speaker 1>fuzzy feelings about George Bush, and if you have fuzzy

0:29:41.480 --> 0:29:43.000
<v Speaker 1>feelings about him, and you want to be cool when

0:29:43.040 --> 0:29:45.400
<v Speaker 1>him he's a painter, now whatever, that's fine. I'll never

0:29:45.440 --> 0:29:48.800
<v Speaker 1>feel that way ever about George Bush. Ever. I'm from

0:29:48.840 --> 0:29:53.320
<v Speaker 1>South Louisiana and I watched a hurricane come through and

0:29:53.520 --> 0:29:58.640
<v Speaker 1>devastate my community and devastate my relatives and family members,

0:29:59.120 --> 0:30:03.200
<v Speaker 1>and the President just didn't care. And I told people

0:30:03.200 --> 0:30:05.800
<v Speaker 1>that TMZ. I'm like, when y'all do this topic, I

0:30:05.880 --> 0:30:09.360
<v Speaker 1>do not want to be on it, and they continue

0:30:09.560 --> 0:30:12.040
<v Speaker 1>to ask me over and over and over again. Harvey

0:30:12.120 --> 0:30:15.040
<v Speaker 1>wasn't there, so they needed Van to make TV, so

0:30:15.080 --> 0:30:18.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I'll do it. So I'm already emotional about it,

0:30:18.520 --> 0:30:21.200
<v Speaker 1>and I'm on this and it feels like I'm being

0:30:21.320 --> 0:30:24.160
<v Speaker 1>played with and so feeling the way that I felt

0:30:24.200 --> 0:30:26.560
<v Speaker 1>after I went over and iledge just like Yo, I

0:30:26.600 --> 0:30:29.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't appreciate that. Now, I what I was trying to

0:30:29.960 --> 0:30:34.480
<v Speaker 1>do was, rather than scream across the office, I didn't

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:36.640
<v Speaker 1>want to let the moment pass without saying anything, because

0:30:36.680 --> 0:30:38.520
<v Speaker 1>I never want to do that. If I feel uncomfortable

0:30:38.560 --> 0:30:40.760
<v Speaker 1>in the moment, I always want to meet that moment

0:30:40.840 --> 0:30:43.000
<v Speaker 1>right then. What I was trying to do was walk

0:30:43.040 --> 0:30:47.160
<v Speaker 1>over and whisper in his ear like YO didn't appreciate it,

0:30:47.240 --> 0:30:50.120
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah blah blah, and then leave and that

0:30:50.240 --> 0:30:53.160
<v Speaker 1>guy turned into Van attacked to Mike. The day after

0:30:53.200 --> 0:30:56.640
<v Speaker 1>the pay six article comes another article from page six

0:30:56.680 --> 0:31:00.040
<v Speaker 1>comes with us still like from one image of the

0:31:00.280 --> 0:31:03.040
<v Speaker 1>thing and them talking about the fact that I got

0:31:03.080 --> 0:31:06.080
<v Speaker 1>feel it was the office striking back at me, and

0:31:06.160 --> 0:31:09.400
<v Speaker 1>this is the part where the uncomfortability sets in it,

0:31:09.520 --> 0:31:13.160
<v Speaker 1>or the resentment for me sets in. Never in my

0:31:13.200 --> 0:31:16.400
<v Speaker 1>life while I ever ever distanced myself from how important

0:31:16.880 --> 0:31:19.560
<v Speaker 1>my time at teams he was for me. People have

0:31:19.600 --> 0:31:23.040
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of opinions about the platform, and they're not wrong,

0:31:23.080 --> 0:31:25.000
<v Speaker 1>But all I can say is that for me, it

0:31:25.040 --> 0:31:26.920
<v Speaker 1>was a place where I was giving an opportunity to grow,

0:31:27.200 --> 0:31:30.160
<v Speaker 1>given an opportunity to learn. That's why where people first

0:31:30.160 --> 0:31:33.560
<v Speaker 1>got to know me, they know that I am not

0:31:34.120 --> 0:31:37.080
<v Speaker 1>who they painted me as when they came back. I've

0:31:37.080 --> 0:31:39.440
<v Speaker 1>been there nine years. There's no one in the office

0:31:39.440 --> 0:31:41.080
<v Speaker 1>that would have ever thought that I would have done

0:31:41.120 --> 0:31:45.520
<v Speaker 1>anything or attacked anyone or anything like that. And for me,

0:31:45.920 --> 0:31:49.160
<v Speaker 1>when the game got that dirty, I was like, but

0:31:49.280 --> 0:31:53.200
<v Speaker 1>that was important. I tell you why, God, Divinity, the universe, whatever,

0:31:53.560 --> 0:31:57.080
<v Speaker 1>did not want me to leave that situation without the

0:31:57.120 --> 0:31:59.680
<v Speaker 1>feeling of having been on the other side of the

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 1>head line like that. Like for nine years, I had

0:32:03.840 --> 0:32:08.280
<v Speaker 1>been right there, complicit and apart of all types of

0:32:08.280 --> 0:32:12.120
<v Speaker 1>headlines that affected people's lives. I did my best. I

0:32:12.160 --> 0:32:15.760
<v Speaker 1>swear to God, I did my best to report things

0:32:15.800 --> 0:32:18.360
<v Speaker 1>that were unsaid by members of the community and things

0:32:18.360 --> 0:32:20.680
<v Speaker 1>that were misunderstood the best that I could while I

0:32:20.720 --> 0:32:22.280
<v Speaker 1>was there with what I was given in the freedom,

0:32:22.320 --> 0:32:23.640
<v Speaker 1>I was giving him the voice that I had. But

0:32:23.680 --> 0:32:27.560
<v Speaker 1>the reality is the situation was there's a slant there,

0:32:27.720 --> 0:32:29.680
<v Speaker 1>and there's always a slant, and the slant is towards

0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:32.680
<v Speaker 1>the sensational, and the slant is oftentimes towards the negative

0:32:32.720 --> 0:32:35.800
<v Speaker 1>because the reality is that that's what people consume and

0:32:35.880 --> 0:32:39.000
<v Speaker 1>like to consume the most of So for me, in

0:32:39.120 --> 0:32:42.040
<v Speaker 1>order to leave there and be a better version of

0:32:42.120 --> 0:32:44.120
<v Speaker 1>myself and be a happier version of myself and more,

0:32:45.160 --> 0:32:47.360
<v Speaker 1>I had to be a headline. I talked about it

0:32:47.400 --> 0:32:49.960
<v Speaker 1>in the book. By the end, Harvey and I were

0:32:49.960 --> 0:32:52.160
<v Speaker 1>having like we were really going back and forth a

0:32:52.160 --> 0:32:55.800
<v Speaker 1>lot because of his Trump support and because of the

0:32:55.920 --> 0:32:59.440
<v Speaker 1>years and years and years of me having to be

0:32:59.720 --> 0:33:03.040
<v Speaker 1>the due that people come to whenever the organization with

0:33:03.800 --> 0:33:07.840
<v Speaker 1>something up. So I don't think that TMZ or organizations

0:33:08.000 --> 0:33:11.240
<v Speaker 1>like it. I don't think that they hate black culture.

0:33:11.600 --> 0:33:13.760
<v Speaker 1>I just don't think that they care about the sensitivities.

0:33:14.240 --> 0:33:16.240
<v Speaker 1>So I give an example of something so little Dickie,

0:33:16.320 --> 0:33:21.800
<v Speaker 1>y'all know little Dickie, right, Yeah, so the K word song, right,

0:33:22.040 --> 0:33:25.040
<v Speaker 1>And this whole narrative in the office was if people

0:33:25.120 --> 0:33:28.720
<v Speaker 1>say the N word and the music, then we should

0:33:28.760 --> 0:33:32.120
<v Speaker 1>be able to say the N word when we're singing

0:33:32.120 --> 0:33:34.640
<v Speaker 1>the songs. Harvey would always argue, I don't see how

0:33:34.680 --> 0:33:36.280
<v Speaker 1>you can stop people from saying it when it's in

0:33:36.320 --> 0:33:38.720
<v Speaker 1>the music music music, and other people in the office

0:33:38.760 --> 0:33:40.080
<v Speaker 1>would say that, and I would go back and forth,

0:33:40.080 --> 0:33:41.920
<v Speaker 1>and I was a big thing. I said, Okay, have

0:33:42.080 --> 0:33:44.880
<v Speaker 1>somebody asked Little Dickie and I would never in my

0:33:45.040 --> 0:33:48.160
<v Speaker 1>life want to use a racial slur. I don't care

0:33:48.200 --> 0:33:50.760
<v Speaker 1>what Little Dickie calls himself in the song. I'm never

0:33:50.760 --> 0:33:52.479
<v Speaker 1>gonna use that because I know how those words can

0:33:52.520 --> 0:33:54.920
<v Speaker 1>hurt and kill them. But I had them ask the question,

0:33:55.200 --> 0:33:59.400
<v Speaker 1>what since Little Dickie is saying that the Little Dickie's Jewish,

0:33:59.480 --> 0:34:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Since a Jewish guy saying this k the K word

0:34:02.120 --> 0:34:06.400
<v Speaker 1>and his music, then does he think that other people

0:34:06.440 --> 0:34:08.400
<v Speaker 1>that be that wrap his music should be able to

0:34:08.400 --> 0:34:10.560
<v Speaker 1>say it too. Because this is the logic that I'm

0:34:10.600 --> 0:34:13.400
<v Speaker 1>getting from the top. Right, They asked that question, and

0:34:13.480 --> 0:34:17.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm pitching it the video and Harvey gets super pissed

0:34:17.200 --> 0:34:21.120
<v Speaker 1>off at the question and I'm like, oh, so you

0:34:21.160 --> 0:34:26.480
<v Speaker 1>do understand, you just don't give a when it's my culture.

0:34:27.440 --> 0:34:30.480
<v Speaker 1>And I remember all around the office is like, Van,

0:34:30.520 --> 0:34:33.560
<v Speaker 1>are you arguing to say the K word? I'm like, no,

0:34:33.920 --> 0:34:36.360
<v Speaker 1>that's not what I'm saying here. I do y'all be

0:34:36.520 --> 0:34:39.200
<v Speaker 1>arguing to say? Are you going to say the K word?

0:34:39.239 --> 0:34:41.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to say it at all, But so

0:34:41.600 --> 0:34:43.239
<v Speaker 1>you mean to tell me that y'all be arguing to

0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:44.960
<v Speaker 1>say the N word. I thought we were doing this

0:34:45.239 --> 0:34:53.040
<v Speaker 1>logical thought experiment. But it does. And by the way,

0:34:53.200 --> 0:34:57.160
<v Speaker 1>and by the way, I understand the contradiction. I understand,

0:34:58.480 --> 0:35:01.279
<v Speaker 1>like I'm not stupid. Got more with Van Leathan. When

0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:06.240
<v Speaker 1>we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning morning.

0:35:06.280 --> 0:35:10.560
<v Speaker 1>Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Ye, Charlomagne the guy. We

0:35:10.640 --> 0:35:14.360
<v Speaker 1>are the Breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Van Leathan, Charlemagne.

0:35:14.440 --> 0:35:19.600
<v Speaker 1>You want to talk about it? Oh yeah, shout out

0:35:19.680 --> 0:35:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Joey Badass. I love Joey Badass and I thought he

0:35:22.120 --> 0:35:24.560
<v Speaker 1>did such a great job. What a good actor. Yeah,

0:35:24.640 --> 0:35:29.400
<v Speaker 1>Joey Badass. Andrew Howard, Zaria, Martin Desmond Roe co directed,

0:35:29.520 --> 0:35:34.320
<v Speaker 1>written by treyvon Free, Nick May younger brother of Abra

0:35:34.360 --> 0:35:37.359
<v Speaker 1>du Verney. Everybody needs someone like this, somebody that can

0:35:37.480 --> 0:35:39.840
<v Speaker 1>help you take a vision and take an idea and

0:35:39.880 --> 0:35:41.839
<v Speaker 1>take a plan and put it into action. Great brother.

0:35:42.800 --> 0:35:46.400
<v Speaker 1>So Trayvon like has an idea, he throws an idea

0:35:46.440 --> 0:35:48.880
<v Speaker 1>out to us and I look at him and this

0:35:48.960 --> 0:35:53.680
<v Speaker 1>is what I actually learned. Pop culture is actually art

0:35:53.719 --> 0:35:58.319
<v Speaker 1>plus timing. So what Trayvon says the idea, which is, uh,

0:35:58.520 --> 0:36:02.080
<v Speaker 1>you know a young man that's reliving the same interaction

0:36:02.160 --> 0:36:04.960
<v Speaker 1>with police over and over again, groundhawks they style. He's like,

0:36:05.160 --> 0:36:06.880
<v Speaker 1>this was the first thing we should make out the pandemic.

0:36:06.920 --> 0:36:09.960
<v Speaker 1>I go gotta go now. Number one, the moment demanded

0:36:10.000 --> 0:36:14.239
<v Speaker 1>the art with what happened with Joe and I'm on Aurbury.

0:36:14.440 --> 0:36:17.919
<v Speaker 1>Number two. Our goal was to win the Oscar from

0:36:17.960 --> 0:36:21.239
<v Speaker 1>the jump. I understood that it was going to be

0:36:21.239 --> 0:36:23.360
<v Speaker 1>a sparse year because there weren't going to be as

0:36:23.400 --> 0:36:27.360
<v Speaker 1>many productions because people couldn't get up. So oscars do

0:36:27.520 --> 0:36:29.560
<v Speaker 1>matter to you? Because some people would say the accolades,

0:36:29.600 --> 0:36:32.600
<v Speaker 1>the awards shouldn't matter. Now didn't matter to me. The

0:36:32.680 --> 0:36:34.840
<v Speaker 1>question is isn't important? If it matters to you, that

0:36:34.920 --> 0:36:37.319
<v Speaker 1>just means it's something that can put your career forward, right.

0:36:37.680 --> 0:36:39.319
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't hang my hat on the fact that the

0:36:39.360 --> 0:36:41.200
<v Speaker 1>movie won an Oscar. What I would hang my hat

0:36:41.280 --> 0:36:44.920
<v Speaker 1>on is the fact that we had an idea, and

0:36:44.960 --> 0:36:46.879
<v Speaker 1>we had a vision and a goal and we hit

0:36:46.920 --> 0:36:49.640
<v Speaker 1>our mark. And now you got the book Fat Crazy

0:36:49.960 --> 0:36:53.719
<v Speaker 1>entire Tales from the Trenches of Transformation. What motivated you

0:36:53.760 --> 0:36:56.439
<v Speaker 1>to write this book? Well? And why was it necessary now?

0:36:56.880 --> 0:36:59.919
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of timing, Yeah, well, the book is necessary now

0:37:00.080 --> 0:37:04.200
<v Speaker 1>for me because I'm in a space to where I'm

0:37:04.239 --> 0:37:06.520
<v Speaker 1>still trying to feel comfortable with me. One of the

0:37:06.520 --> 0:37:09.800
<v Speaker 1>biggest accomplishments in my life was losing one hundred and

0:37:09.880 --> 0:37:11.960
<v Speaker 1>seventy pounds, right, tell people, I big you where once

0:37:12.000 --> 0:37:21.680
<v Speaker 1>I was about three seventy and so I've been a lot.

0:37:29.239 --> 0:37:31.200
<v Speaker 1>So a lot of people are looking at me right

0:37:31.200 --> 0:37:33.920
<v Speaker 1>now and they're like, you know, well, then you've gained

0:37:33.920 --> 0:37:35.640
<v Speaker 1>some weight, and I have, right, I gained some weight

0:37:35.719 --> 0:37:38.400
<v Speaker 1>during the pandemic. I think the book was important for

0:37:38.440 --> 0:37:41.799
<v Speaker 1>me because so much of my life was focused around

0:37:41.840 --> 0:37:43.360
<v Speaker 1>the fact that I have been able to lose this

0:37:43.480 --> 0:37:46.239
<v Speaker 1>way and like change my life. And during the pandemic,

0:37:46.640 --> 0:37:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I took my body and I took what I was

0:37:49.480 --> 0:37:53.520
<v Speaker 1>going through as a personal failure, that my anxiety crept

0:37:53.520 --> 0:37:55.879
<v Speaker 1>back in, my depression crept back in. I was really down.

0:37:56.360 --> 0:37:58.560
<v Speaker 1>And the book is about coming to terms with the

0:37:58.640 --> 0:38:01.200
<v Speaker 1>reasons why I am the way that I am, so

0:38:01.239 --> 0:38:04.520
<v Speaker 1>that I can live inside of myself no matter what casing.

0:38:04.600 --> 0:38:06.800
<v Speaker 1>I'man did get a chance to read the except we

0:38:06.840 --> 0:38:09.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't get the book ahead of time. Yeah, when you

0:38:09.000 --> 0:38:12.120
<v Speaker 1>talk about your father and him dying and how you

0:38:12.160 --> 0:38:14.640
<v Speaker 1>felt like you wanted to be like Brett five, Yeah,

0:38:14.719 --> 0:38:17.400
<v Speaker 1>in that moment when Brett Fire played but his father

0:38:17.480 --> 0:38:20.680
<v Speaker 1>had just died the day before and he still had

0:38:20.719 --> 0:38:23.760
<v Speaker 1>like an amazing game, And then you had to realize

0:38:23.760 --> 0:38:27.480
<v Speaker 1>that you don't have to cope and face things that way.

0:38:27.680 --> 0:38:29.600
<v Speaker 1>And so once you come to that realization, how did

0:38:29.600 --> 0:38:32.960
<v Speaker 1>things change for you? I think my thing was I

0:38:33.160 --> 0:38:36.359
<v Speaker 1>learned to love my father more when I stopped trying

0:38:36.400 --> 0:38:38.279
<v Speaker 1>to be him. He just would have picked up the

0:38:38.280 --> 0:38:40.640
<v Speaker 1>pieces and moved on. And I'm not picked up the

0:38:40.640 --> 0:38:43.400
<v Speaker 1>pieces and move on type of guy. I'm a I

0:38:43.520 --> 0:38:45.880
<v Speaker 1>need some space type of guy. And I had to

0:38:45.880 --> 0:38:49.440
<v Speaker 1>recognize that, you know what I mean. Yeah, Like I'm

0:38:49.520 --> 0:38:53.959
<v Speaker 1>driving across the river from bat rouge to Maryland, Louisiana.

0:38:54.000 --> 0:38:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to put my dad in a box and

0:38:55.400 --> 0:38:58.279
<v Speaker 1>put him in the ground forever. So peculiar feeling when

0:38:58.400 --> 0:39:02.560
<v Speaker 1>when the parent dies, it's like, it's weird. It's someone

0:39:02.640 --> 0:39:04.920
<v Speaker 1>that's known you for every second of your life, that

0:39:05.000 --> 0:39:07.319
<v Speaker 1>you feel like has every answer to every question, and

0:39:07.320 --> 0:39:10.239
<v Speaker 1>then they're just gone. And now for the next portion

0:39:10.239 --> 0:39:11.920
<v Speaker 1>of your life, you have to speak to the wind.

0:39:12.640 --> 0:39:14.560
<v Speaker 1>And I'm coming to terms with this while I'm driving

0:39:14.600 --> 0:39:17.000
<v Speaker 1>my boy and I'm thinking, brat far, I've got up

0:39:17.000 --> 0:39:18.759
<v Speaker 1>and he through for all of them yards, Go do this,

0:39:18.880 --> 0:39:21.360
<v Speaker 1>go do this, And people are saying, yo, what was

0:39:21.400 --> 0:39:23.440
<v Speaker 1>his favorite this? And I'm calling it out, like did

0:39:23.440 --> 0:39:25.880
<v Speaker 1>he have a favorite hat? I'm like yeah, and I

0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:28.960
<v Speaker 1>keep going. I'm thinking to myself, just go just answer

0:39:28.960 --> 0:39:31.640
<v Speaker 1>the questions because now I'm the man, right, I'm the

0:39:31.680 --> 0:39:33.600
<v Speaker 1>only one that has enough money to pay for this.

0:39:34.120 --> 0:39:35.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm the only one that knew enough about him to

0:39:35.840 --> 0:39:37.399
<v Speaker 1>do all this. So now I have to be here.

0:39:37.640 --> 0:39:39.919
<v Speaker 1>And I look around and I look at my uncle

0:39:39.960 --> 0:39:42.359
<v Speaker 1>Craig and he looks exactly like my dad. My uncle

0:39:42.400 --> 0:39:45.279
<v Speaker 1>Craig comes in and I look at him. My uncle

0:39:45.320 --> 0:39:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Craig is saying there, I'm like, I need a minute.

0:39:48.400 --> 0:39:52.120
<v Speaker 1>I walk out. It's a hot, human Louisiana day. The

0:39:52.160 --> 0:39:54.000
<v Speaker 1>wind is blowing. I'm looking at the field and I

0:39:54.120 --> 0:39:59.279
<v Speaker 1>just sit there and I say, God, please help me,

0:39:59.320 --> 0:40:03.560
<v Speaker 1>God like help me, like help me. And the next

0:40:03.600 --> 0:40:05.880
<v Speaker 1>thing I felt was my homeboy in his like his

0:40:05.920 --> 0:40:07.400
<v Speaker 1>hand was on my shoulder and I'm staying I'm I

0:40:07.400 --> 0:40:09.600
<v Speaker 1>don't think I can go back in, and they're like,

0:40:09.960 --> 0:40:12.120
<v Speaker 1>let's just finish it. And I never saw him. I

0:40:12.160 --> 0:40:14.360
<v Speaker 1>never looked at him. I never They're like, do you

0:40:14.360 --> 0:40:17.440
<v Speaker 1>want to see him? I couldn't see him. Last time

0:40:17.440 --> 0:40:20.960
<v Speaker 1>I saw my father alive in the flesh was twenty nineteen.

0:40:21.480 --> 0:40:24.160
<v Speaker 1>And if I had known that that was the last

0:40:24.200 --> 0:40:26.959
<v Speaker 1>time I would have saw him, I think it would

0:40:26.960 --> 0:40:28.080
<v Speaker 1>have been a lot of different a lot of things

0:40:28.080 --> 0:40:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I'd have said to him. And then you talk about

0:40:29.560 --> 0:40:30.839
<v Speaker 1>with Brett fall, you know a lot of times, man,

0:40:30.840 --> 0:40:34.480
<v Speaker 1>that's just a staying busy as a response to trauma. Yeah,

0:40:34.719 --> 0:40:38.040
<v Speaker 1>my way of grieving was to leave everybody and just

0:40:38.120 --> 0:40:41.040
<v Speaker 1>go drive down the levee. It was just tough and

0:40:41.200 --> 0:40:42.959
<v Speaker 1>I'm really not out of it, and it's still something

0:40:43.000 --> 0:40:45.000
<v Speaker 1>that I'm that I'm kind of learning to deal with

0:40:45.160 --> 0:40:51.000
<v Speaker 1>right now. Talk to him every day. I got yesterday

0:40:51.280 --> 0:40:54.400
<v Speaker 1>again in New York, and I remember my dad used

0:40:54.440 --> 0:40:58.520
<v Speaker 1>to always talk about the Empire State Building. He'd be like,

0:40:58.600 --> 0:41:01.160
<v Speaker 1>taller than the Empire State Building. I'm like, yo, you

0:41:01.160 --> 0:41:03.360
<v Speaker 1>want to go and see the Empire State Building and

0:41:03.400 --> 0:41:05.799
<v Speaker 1>He'll be like, no, I see it as something TV.

0:41:06.440 --> 0:41:08.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm driving around yesterday doing stuff and I passed by

0:41:08.600 --> 0:41:12.080
<v Speaker 1>the Empire State Building and I'm like, there it is that. Yeah,

0:41:12.120 --> 0:41:14.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, I wonder you know, because you were speaking

0:41:14.719 --> 0:41:17.239
<v Speaker 1>in past tense when you was fat back in the day,

0:41:17.560 --> 0:41:19.600
<v Speaker 1>but you said you gained some weight. Sure. Do you

0:41:19.640 --> 0:41:21.840
<v Speaker 1>think that dad helped you while he was writing the

0:41:21.840 --> 0:41:24.200
<v Speaker 1>book this time, because you really were back into that

0:41:24.239 --> 0:41:27.480
<v Speaker 1>space and being fat. Yeah, I think it did. I

0:41:27.520 --> 0:41:30.160
<v Speaker 1>think that the pandemic for me stopped. It took my

0:41:30.200 --> 0:41:32.560
<v Speaker 1>distractions away like everyone else and what it took my

0:41:32.600 --> 0:41:35.120
<v Speaker 1>distractions away, It made me sit in who I really am,

0:41:35.640 --> 0:41:37.840
<v Speaker 1>and who I really am doesn't really have anything to

0:41:37.880 --> 0:41:40.080
<v Speaker 1>do with like how I come off in that way,

0:41:40.160 --> 0:41:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Like right now I'm heavier, but like I'm super active.

0:41:43.680 --> 0:41:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I box every morning. That's why, you know, one of

0:41:45.640 --> 0:41:47.360
<v Speaker 1>these days, I'm gonna get waxing. The ring beat the

0:41:47.480 --> 0:41:50.080
<v Speaker 1>out of him. I run, I do all of these things.

0:41:50.160 --> 0:41:53.160
<v Speaker 1>I just look different. So the question is, while I'm

0:41:53.160 --> 0:41:55.120
<v Speaker 1>in this space, by the way, I'm losing this way.

0:41:55.320 --> 0:41:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I can't do this, Like I can't sit on the

0:41:57.239 --> 0:41:59.120
<v Speaker 1>plane and do this whole thing. But I have to

0:41:59.160 --> 0:42:01.200
<v Speaker 1>become okay with myself again. And I never did that

0:42:01.360 --> 0:42:03.600
<v Speaker 1>when I was three hundred and seventy pounds. I never

0:42:03.680 --> 0:42:05.680
<v Speaker 1>took the time to be like, okay, Van, you're okay,

0:42:06.280 --> 0:42:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Like you're you're an okay person. It means you're you're fine,

0:42:10.040 --> 0:42:12.040
<v Speaker 1>but you just don't like the fact that you can't

0:42:12.040 --> 0:42:13.640
<v Speaker 1>perform in the way that you look. So just change that.

0:42:13.719 --> 0:42:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I said, no, this version of me is bad, And

0:42:16.640 --> 0:42:18.839
<v Speaker 1>because this version of me is bad, I'm only going

0:42:18.880 --> 0:42:21.840
<v Speaker 1>to be good when I change it. I'm good either way.

0:42:21.920 --> 0:42:24.319
<v Speaker 1>It's not about how I look, It's about how I feel.

0:42:24.960 --> 0:42:27.279
<v Speaker 1>And so like getting to the point in your life

0:42:27.280 --> 0:42:29.719
<v Speaker 1>where you feel good about yourself, there should not be

0:42:29.760 --> 0:42:32.239
<v Speaker 1>a number on the scale around that. There shouldn't be

0:42:32.280 --> 0:42:34.239
<v Speaker 1>a body five percentage around that. There shouldn't be a

0:42:34.280 --> 0:42:38.000
<v Speaker 1>dollar amount around that. Like the pandemic taught me to

0:42:38.200 --> 0:42:42.080
<v Speaker 1>prioritize peace over everything else. Peace is the thing that's

0:42:42.080 --> 0:42:44.280
<v Speaker 1>the most important, all right. We got more with Van Lathing.

0:42:44.320 --> 0:42:47.920
<v Speaker 1>When we come back, it's the breakfast Club. Good morning morning.

0:42:47.960 --> 0:42:52.279
<v Speaker 1>Everybody is DJ Envy Angela Yee. Charlomagne the guy. We

0:42:52.320 --> 0:42:54.719
<v Speaker 1>are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Van

0:42:54.840 --> 0:42:58.000
<v Speaker 1>Lathan Charlomagne. That's where you got the trances of transformation.

0:42:58.040 --> 0:42:59.960
<v Speaker 1>From the trenches of transformation. It's like, how, yeah, how

0:43:00.080 --> 0:43:01.959
<v Speaker 1>will we change? I tell a story in the book

0:43:01.960 --> 0:43:04.240
<v Speaker 1>about what I really realized. I had a food addiction.

0:43:04.600 --> 0:43:06.799
<v Speaker 1>I had worked a shift that best Buy, and whenever

0:43:06.840 --> 0:43:08.520
<v Speaker 1>I would leave the shift that best Buy, I would

0:43:08.560 --> 0:43:14.480
<v Speaker 1>go to Bennigans because like I was love. Yeah, Bennigans

0:43:14.480 --> 0:43:17.359
<v Speaker 1>had these big ass chicken fingers, and so I would

0:43:17.360 --> 0:43:18.799
<v Speaker 1>go there and get the chicken tenders and I would

0:43:18.800 --> 0:43:21.000
<v Speaker 1>get loaded mashed potatoes and fries, and I would have

0:43:21.040 --> 0:43:22.560
<v Speaker 1>this little trick I would do when I would go there.

0:43:22.840 --> 0:43:24.279
<v Speaker 1>I would act like I got a call from you

0:43:24.360 --> 0:43:25.839
<v Speaker 1>or from you while I was waiting for it. Oh,

0:43:25.880 --> 0:43:29.160
<v Speaker 1>you want a chocolate cake with the alamode icing and

0:43:29.200 --> 0:43:30.640
<v Speaker 1>all of that stuff, Like, oh, that's what you want

0:43:30.760 --> 0:43:32.040
<v Speaker 1>cool because the guy, well, I can bring it. You

0:43:32.040 --> 0:43:33.799
<v Speaker 1>want to chocolate shake? Two? Damn? What are you going in?

0:43:34.160 --> 0:43:35.880
<v Speaker 1>And then I would add that to the order. But

0:43:35.920 --> 0:43:38.040
<v Speaker 1>it was really for me, right, and the people knew

0:43:38.480 --> 0:43:39.880
<v Speaker 1>I did this all the time, so they knew that

0:43:39.920 --> 0:43:41.520
<v Speaker 1>every time I come there. But like, this was how

0:43:41.600 --> 0:43:43.120
<v Speaker 1>much I was addicted to food and I had to

0:43:43.160 --> 0:43:45.080
<v Speaker 1>have it or else I didn't feel good. So I'm

0:43:45.080 --> 0:43:47.600
<v Speaker 1>had best Buy working one time and I look across

0:43:47.640 --> 0:43:51.160
<v Speaker 1>the parking lot and I'm like Jesus Christ, Bennings closed,

0:43:51.880 --> 0:43:57.280
<v Speaker 1>like what happens now? And I feel this overwhelming sense

0:43:57.480 --> 0:44:06.480
<v Speaker 1>of disappointment, and I cry, you're sick. I knew he

0:44:06.600 --> 0:44:11.760
<v Speaker 1>was gonna laugh. Wait wait wait, wait wait, I knew

0:44:11.800 --> 0:44:17.200
<v Speaker 1>for sure that he that is HI, Like, you're sick,

0:44:17.560 --> 0:44:27.040
<v Speaker 1>o man, sick. I'm sick. Yeah, thank you, thank you.

0:44:27.560 --> 0:44:28.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to know what you would eat because I

0:44:29.040 --> 0:44:30.759
<v Speaker 1>know you would again something. Need you ain't cry to long?

0:44:31.080 --> 0:44:37.560
<v Speaker 1>I did, ugh McDonalds. So I'm sitting there, So I'm

0:44:37.600 --> 0:44:40.000
<v Speaker 1>sitting so I'm sitting in there. I'm sitting there. This

0:44:40.040 --> 0:44:41.840
<v Speaker 1>is a good order. Like I'll tell you what the

0:44:41.920 --> 0:44:45.319
<v Speaker 1>McDonalds like the power meal. I'm sitting there and I'm

0:44:45.360 --> 0:44:47.120
<v Speaker 1>looking and it's one of those moments like in the

0:44:47.160 --> 0:44:50.040
<v Speaker 1>movies where you look at yourself and she's like, you

0:44:50.080 --> 0:44:52.839
<v Speaker 1>need help, and I'll dry to tea. I'm like, God,

0:44:52.920 --> 0:44:55.399
<v Speaker 1>damn im, I'm crying over some vine because I laugh

0:44:55.760 --> 0:44:57.680
<v Speaker 1>all of those moments in my life where I'm like, Yo,

0:44:57.760 --> 0:45:00.640
<v Speaker 1>this is really happening. Like I laughed. So I drive,

0:45:00.680 --> 0:45:04.920
<v Speaker 1>I go to McDonald's number four, super size, twenty piece McNuggets,

0:45:05.160 --> 0:45:08.880
<v Speaker 1>two apple pies with the drink We're good for, the

0:45:08.880 --> 0:45:12.759
<v Speaker 1>double quarter pounder, the double quarter pounder. And that went

0:45:12.760 --> 0:45:15.040
<v Speaker 1>on for a little while until one day, literally one day,

0:45:15.080 --> 0:45:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I was just like it and I started it. And

0:45:17.160 --> 0:45:19.040
<v Speaker 1>then that year I lost one hundred and forty pounds.

0:45:19.080 --> 0:45:21.319
<v Speaker 1>You just say I got a diet now, I just

0:45:21.400 --> 0:45:25.480
<v Speaker 1>I was in California and I'm just walking around. I

0:45:25.560 --> 0:45:28.040
<v Speaker 1>ordered these pants from the Gap. One of the producers

0:45:28.040 --> 0:45:29.719
<v Speaker 1>at my job got him a set of me and

0:45:29.719 --> 0:45:31.239
<v Speaker 1>I saw him hold the pants up. The pants were

0:45:31.280 --> 0:45:33.160
<v Speaker 1>like a fifty two fifty four in ways or something

0:45:33.200 --> 0:45:37.120
<v Speaker 1>like that, Michael Jordan's size. Yeah, And so I just

0:45:37.200 --> 0:45:39.480
<v Speaker 1>like I walked around to the gym, started going to

0:45:39.480 --> 0:45:41.080
<v Speaker 1>the gym at first, I can only do thirty minutes

0:45:41.400 --> 0:45:43.600
<v Speaker 1>now even at this size. Right now, I boxed seven

0:45:43.719 --> 0:45:46.480
<v Speaker 1>eight nine rounds. I'm good. What was something you gained

0:45:46.560 --> 0:45:49.719
<v Speaker 1>personally from writing the book. I think I gained an

0:45:49.760 --> 0:45:52.719
<v Speaker 1>understanding of just how complicated everything is. Writing the book

0:45:52.800 --> 0:45:54.800
<v Speaker 1>was hard because, like you have to put everything together.

0:45:54.880 --> 0:45:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I think we are really cleaning down the path of

0:45:58.440 --> 0:46:01.560
<v Speaker 1>trying to simplify society. Myself, it's over, we've been. We're

0:46:01.560 --> 0:46:03.960
<v Speaker 1>there already. Like it is not black and white, yeah,

0:46:04.000 --> 0:46:06.680
<v Speaker 1>he never has been. There are no absolutes. Yeah, And really,

0:46:06.800 --> 0:46:08.759
<v Speaker 1>to be honest with you, more than anything, if I'm

0:46:08.840 --> 0:46:11.799
<v Speaker 1>not trying to like protect myself, writing the book helped me.

0:46:12.160 --> 0:46:15.080
<v Speaker 1>It's helping me process my father's death. Actually doing the

0:46:15.080 --> 0:46:17.319
<v Speaker 1>book and then doing then audio book, it helped me

0:46:17.360 --> 0:46:19.399
<v Speaker 1>revisit some of those things and deal with them. So

0:46:19.840 --> 0:46:21.920
<v Speaker 1>that's been very and you know, just get my feelings

0:46:21.920 --> 0:46:24.560
<v Speaker 1>out and being able to contextualize this moment in my life,

0:46:24.640 --> 0:46:28.080
<v Speaker 1>put a pin in it and just kind of move on. Well, Well,

0:46:28.120 --> 0:46:30.360
<v Speaker 1>healing is not linear, and they you know, grief is

0:46:30.600 --> 0:46:32.719
<v Speaker 1>something that's gonna always come and go about the rest

0:46:32.719 --> 0:46:34.799
<v Speaker 1>of your life, right, you know that, Yeah, of course,

0:46:35.120 --> 0:46:37.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm just what I'm ready for is to say this

0:46:37.640 --> 0:46:40.120
<v Speaker 1>is where I'm at now. We got more movies, we

0:46:40.200 --> 0:46:43.120
<v Speaker 1>got more stuff, We got higher learning with Rachel Lindsay

0:46:43.480 --> 0:46:45.759
<v Speaker 1>Van later, we got The Ring Reverse, we got all

0:46:45.760 --> 0:46:47.719
<v Speaker 1>of these things that we're doing so many different things

0:46:47.719 --> 0:46:49.960
<v Speaker 1>and I'm into right now, and I just wanted to

0:46:50.000 --> 0:46:52.600
<v Speaker 1>get my thoughts on my life up to this point

0:46:52.600 --> 0:46:55.200
<v Speaker 1>and really the lives of the people in my community.

0:46:55.239 --> 0:46:57.960
<v Speaker 1>You know my last question you um, you know for

0:46:58.239 --> 0:47:00.719
<v Speaker 1>years he was a black guy from TIMZ, So how

0:47:00.719 --> 0:47:06.719
<v Speaker 1>would you define Van Leathon right now? Oh? Good, certainly, well,

0:47:06.760 --> 0:47:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I still get the black guy from TMZ all the

0:47:08.520 --> 0:47:12.000
<v Speaker 1>time despite it. But um, I don't know. I don't

0:47:12.040 --> 0:47:14.640
<v Speaker 1>think I have an answer. I would love to have something,

0:47:15.280 --> 0:47:19.719
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think I'm really into defining myself as

0:47:19.800 --> 0:47:24.600
<v Speaker 1>much as I am into enjoying the peaceful time so

0:47:24.600 --> 0:47:26.680
<v Speaker 1>that I can get it and doing better. What I

0:47:26.680 --> 0:47:28.560
<v Speaker 1>would like to be right now is has nothing to

0:47:28.600 --> 0:47:31.560
<v Speaker 1>do with who I am professionally. When I was still

0:47:31.600 --> 0:47:33.839
<v Speaker 1>playing ball a lot, I always wanted to dunk off

0:47:33.880 --> 0:47:36.319
<v Speaker 1>two feet, You jump off two feet, you can jump

0:47:36.400 --> 0:47:38.040
<v Speaker 1>up and do crazy in the air. You can take

0:47:38.120 --> 0:47:40.439
<v Speaker 1>kids or most really athletic guys jump off two feet.

0:47:40.440 --> 0:47:43.759
<v Speaker 1>I'll never forget this guy name Graham Mitchell, who's a

0:47:43.760 --> 0:47:46.759
<v Speaker 1>fitness guy in LA. We're in the gym. I see

0:47:46.800 --> 0:47:49.279
<v Speaker 1>these guys doing these crazy thumps off two feet and

0:47:49.320 --> 0:47:50.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing it off one and I can't say in

0:47:50.840 --> 0:47:52.320
<v Speaker 1>the air as long as they might get up, I

0:47:52.400 --> 0:47:54.440
<v Speaker 1>come down like I can't do all that stuff. I

0:47:54.480 --> 0:47:56.960
<v Speaker 1>remember asking them and I was like, if I start

0:47:57.000 --> 0:47:59.239
<v Speaker 1>training with you, can you make me as good of

0:47:59.280 --> 0:48:01.279
<v Speaker 1>a two footage him? Can you make me a great

0:48:01.280 --> 0:48:03.640
<v Speaker 1>two for the jumper. I'll never forget to answer they

0:48:03.680 --> 0:48:07.239
<v Speaker 1>gave me. He said, now I can't, he said, I

0:48:07.280 --> 0:48:09.200
<v Speaker 1>can make you a better two for the jumper. Though.

0:48:09.719 --> 0:48:14.000
<v Speaker 1>It's not about good or great because those are subject

0:48:14.520 --> 0:48:17.400
<v Speaker 1>It's about better and that's and that's me trying to

0:48:17.400 --> 0:48:23.600
<v Speaker 1>do better. And Lathan's junior fat, crazy entire transformation. Yep,

<v Speaker 1>from shooting a music video on his property. So, according

0:49:09.000 --> 0:49:12.320
<v Speaker 1>to Gary Pagar, he said he had serious injuries. And

0:49:13.800 --> 0:49:15.600
<v Speaker 1>here's the story. They said the Baby and his team

0:49:15.600 --> 0:49:19.960
<v Speaker 1>rented mansion in La that Paguar manages. Pagar said he

0:49:20.000 --> 0:49:21.200
<v Speaker 1>was there. He was told it was going to be

0:49:21.280 --> 0:49:23.759
<v Speaker 1>a vacation place for the baby and his friends. He

0:49:23.840 --> 0:49:26.080
<v Speaker 1>told them it was a guest limit no more than twelve,

0:49:26.440 --> 0:49:30.319
<v Speaker 1>and the Baby's management team allegedly agreed to that rental agreement. Well,

0:49:30.360 --> 0:49:32.480
<v Speaker 1>he said that he paid a visit and realized they

0:49:32.480 --> 0:49:35.040
<v Speaker 1>were shooting a music video with an entire film crew,

0:49:35.360 --> 0:49:37.800
<v Speaker 1>a ton of other people around, upwards to forty people.

0:49:37.840 --> 0:49:40.160
<v Speaker 1>He says he tried to shut the whole thing down

0:49:40.560 --> 0:49:42.600
<v Speaker 1>by talking to the baby, and that's when he claims

0:49:42.600 --> 0:49:45.640
<v Speaker 1>he was attacked by somebody and the crew. Part of

0:49:45.680 --> 0:49:47.640
<v Speaker 1>that was called on video. He said the baby ordered

0:49:47.640 --> 0:49:50.400
<v Speaker 1>the guy off of him, but then allegedly sucker punched

0:49:50.480 --> 0:49:53.279
<v Speaker 1>him in the face, knocking out his tooth. It looks

0:49:53.280 --> 0:49:55.160
<v Speaker 1>like he went to the authorities after this, and now

0:49:55.200 --> 0:49:59.840
<v Speaker 1>they have a guest decided to charge him with felony battery.

0:50:00.160 --> 0:50:03.520
<v Speaker 1>The baby has defended himself, and he said, y'all keep

0:50:03.520 --> 0:50:06.360
<v Speaker 1>believing these type of people and helping him assassinate my character.

0:50:07.200 --> 0:50:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Y'all might as well get a rope and help him

0:50:08.840 --> 0:50:11.319
<v Speaker 1>hang my black ass on a treat. And he had

0:50:11.320 --> 0:50:14.080
<v Speaker 1>a TikTok video showing somebody who appears to be a

0:50:14.320 --> 0:50:17.960
<v Speaker 1>payguard outside of a home who was irate, And it's

0:50:18.040 --> 0:50:22.200
<v Speaker 1>unclear what the timeline of the clip is, but allegedly

0:50:22.640 --> 0:50:25.880
<v Speaker 1>he did call him the N word, using a racial slur.

0:50:26.520 --> 0:50:30.560
<v Speaker 1>And I guess he's saying that it was some type

0:50:30.560 --> 0:50:34.080
<v Speaker 1>of altercation. So we'll just have to stay tuned to

0:50:34.080 --> 0:50:38.200
<v Speaker 1>see what happens with the baby. All right, in Shaquille O'Neill,

0:50:38.800 --> 0:50:40.920
<v Speaker 1>is he going vegan? It doesn't look like it, but

0:50:40.960 --> 0:50:43.840
<v Speaker 1>it looks like he does enjoy some healthier food nowadays.

0:50:44.120 --> 0:50:47.000
<v Speaker 1>He was talking to comedian Rip Michaels at Slutty Vegan

0:50:47.040 --> 0:50:50.480
<v Speaker 1>in Atlanta on Urban Eats and Treats. He's switching over

0:50:50.480 --> 0:50:53.600
<v Speaker 1>the vegan the diet thing that you're doing now, I'm switching.

0:50:53.600 --> 0:50:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Our friend introduced me to this place, and it's healthy

0:51:00.120 --> 0:51:03.759
<v Speaker 1>the way she cooks it. You know. For example, I

0:51:03.880 --> 0:51:06.120
<v Speaker 1>like cheeseburgers, right, got it, like the way she could

0:51:06.560 --> 0:51:09.120
<v Speaker 1>like I can eat healthy but still feel like I'm

0:51:09.160 --> 0:51:12.200
<v Speaker 1>eating black again. Whatever I want to cheat, I come

0:51:12.239 --> 0:51:14.799
<v Speaker 1>over here and you just like you. For me guy,

0:51:14.920 --> 0:51:17.879
<v Speaker 1>it's chicken style of skating fish. But I'm a burger guy.

0:51:17.920 --> 0:51:20.319
<v Speaker 1>So when I gotta get a burger taste, I got

0:51:20.440 --> 0:51:22.800
<v Speaker 1>to look at the burgers. Grabber Burger always come to

0:51:22.800 --> 0:51:26.319
<v Speaker 1>sluggy vegan. Yeah, I think people just love slutty vegans food.

0:51:26.360 --> 0:51:28.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they even care that it's vegetarian. I'm sure.

0:51:29.160 --> 0:51:30.919
<v Speaker 1>Of course, of course there's some people that, of course

0:51:30.960 --> 0:51:32.400
<v Speaker 1>they go there because it's vegan, but a lot of

0:51:32.440 --> 0:51:34.920
<v Speaker 1>people just like to taste the food and shout the rip.

0:51:34.960 --> 0:51:37.959
<v Speaker 1>Michaels too, that's Rit Michaels show. He has a show

0:51:38.000 --> 0:51:40.200
<v Speaker 1>on the LL network where he talks to he takes

0:51:40.239 --> 0:51:42.239
<v Speaker 1>people to some of their favorite restaurants. I know I

0:51:42.440 --> 0:51:46.279
<v Speaker 1>was on there, Nick Cannon, a Shock and a host

0:51:46.320 --> 0:51:50.600
<v Speaker 1>of others. So shout the rip michaels Manban, Carl cam Our, Brackson, Bell, Bellamy, Yeah,

0:51:50.600 --> 0:51:52.799
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people, but yeah, shout out to him,

0:51:52.960 --> 0:51:54.680
<v Speaker 1>and shout out to Slutty Vegan. You know, they opened

0:51:54.680 --> 0:51:57.360
<v Speaker 1>one in Brooklyn as well, and then she has an

0:51:57.400 --> 0:52:01.200
<v Speaker 1>amazing bar also in Atlanta too, So she's doing great

0:52:01.239 --> 0:52:04.480
<v Speaker 1>work and her food is absolutely delicious. All right now.

0:52:04.600 --> 0:52:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Rose did an interview with GQ magazine and spoke

0:52:07.800 --> 0:52:11.359
<v Speaker 1>for the first time about his divorce from Molly Carum. Now.

0:52:11.480 --> 0:52:14.840
<v Speaker 1>They both announced they were divorcing in December, and he

0:52:15.440 --> 0:52:17.919
<v Speaker 1>initially filed for a divorce in April of that year.

0:52:18.360 --> 0:52:20.800
<v Speaker 1>He said, in my personal relationship, it was laughable to

0:52:20.880 --> 0:52:23.360
<v Speaker 1>me to see Molly and I mutually part ways be

0:52:23.640 --> 0:52:26.600
<v Speaker 1>in accord about why we're parting ways and still see

0:52:26.600 --> 0:52:30.480
<v Speaker 1>people speculating on why, he said, not only speculating in particular,

0:52:30.560 --> 0:52:32.400
<v Speaker 1>saying it was because Herr and Stephen A. Smith had

0:52:32.440 --> 0:52:36.080
<v Speaker 1>a relationship, and like, unequivocally, I'm not here to speak

0:52:36.120 --> 0:52:38.239
<v Speaker 1>for what he does in his personal life or what

0:52:38.480 --> 0:52:40.680
<v Speaker 1>she does in her personal life. I got loved for

0:52:40.760 --> 0:52:42.960
<v Speaker 1>both of them. We still one hundred. I would just

0:52:43.040 --> 0:52:45.080
<v Speaker 1>say that for people who thought we parted ways because

0:52:45.160 --> 0:52:47.920
<v Speaker 1>they have a relationship. Then I got some Swampland and

0:52:48.000 --> 0:52:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Detroit to sell you for top dollar. That is not

0:52:50.120 --> 0:52:56.560
<v Speaker 1>why we split, right, So things just didn't work. He said,

0:52:56.600 --> 0:52:58.799
<v Speaker 1>they're on the same accord of why it didn't work,

0:52:59.360 --> 0:53:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and it's not that he said it was a reach

0:53:01.920 --> 0:53:04.000
<v Speaker 1>people saying that the three of them were in the

0:53:04.040 --> 0:53:05.920
<v Speaker 1>middle of some type of situation. He said, that's why

0:53:06.000 --> 0:53:09.040
<v Speaker 1>none of us have spoken on it. He said, um

0:53:09.800 --> 0:53:12.479
<v Speaker 1>people would say, Jalen to Sucker Stephen a Snash's wife

0:53:12.480 --> 0:53:14.239
<v Speaker 1>and he up there working with him. Or look at Molly.

0:53:14.320 --> 0:53:16.719
<v Speaker 1>She was talking to Jalen yesterday. Now she's kicking it

0:53:16.840 --> 0:53:20.960
<v Speaker 1>with Da Da Da. That ain't happen. Yeah, they're broken up.

0:53:20.960 --> 0:53:25.920
<v Speaker 1>It's over right. M's over divorced, all right. Megan the

<v Speaker 1>longevity is the key. It's cool to be hot for

0:55:17.560 --> 0:55:19.480

<v Speaker 1>But I'm also very proud that my wife was white

0:57:05.760 --> 0:57:09.640
<v Speaker 1>because the practice club bitches, Please tell me, why was

0:57:09.719 --> 0:57:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I your donkey? How we starting off Monday donkey? Today?

0:57:14.120 --> 0:57:16.600
<v Speaker 1>For Monday, May second goes to East Bernard High School

0:57:16.800 --> 0:57:19.720
<v Speaker 1>in East Bernard, Texas and the whole East Bernard Independent

0:57:19.760 --> 0:57:22.920
<v Speaker 1>School District. Now, I understand rules or rules, okay, And

0:57:23.000 --> 0:57:26.760
<v Speaker 1>every single corporation in school has different policies. And if

0:57:26.760 --> 0:57:28.600
<v Speaker 1>you want to work in these corporations, if you want

0:57:28.640 --> 0:57:30.720
<v Speaker 1>to attend these schools, you have to follow their rules

0:57:30.880 --> 0:57:33.440
<v Speaker 1>and addhair to their policies. I get it. But that

0:57:33.560 --> 0:57:35.920
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean we can't also challenge those rules and policies.

0:57:35.920 --> 0:57:37.480
<v Speaker 1>And that's what we are doing this morning to East

0:57:37.520 --> 0:57:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Bernard High School because they have a dress code policy,

0:57:40.400 --> 0:57:43.560
<v Speaker 1>and that dress code policy states that braided hair our

0:57:43.680 --> 0:57:46.960
<v Speaker 1>corn rolls will not be allowed. Okay, there's a term

0:57:47.000 --> 0:57:50.280
<v Speaker 1>for that rule, and that term is natural hair discrimination. Okay,

0:57:50.400 --> 0:57:54.040
<v Speaker 1>race based hair discrimination. Everybody knows haird discrimination is rooted

0:57:54.080 --> 0:57:59.560
<v Speaker 1>in systemic racism. Okay. Policies that prohibit natural hairstyles like afros, braids, dreadlocks,

0:57:59.600 --> 0:58:02.440
<v Speaker 1>they've been us to justify removing black grown folks from

0:58:02.440 --> 0:58:05.520
<v Speaker 1>their employment and removing black kids from classrooms. Okay, I

0:58:05.640 --> 0:58:08.720
<v Speaker 1>mean it is literally the criminalization of black hair, and

0:58:08.760 --> 0:58:10.600
<v Speaker 1>it makes black people feel like they have to conform

0:58:10.720 --> 0:58:13.440
<v Speaker 1>the perms Okay, straighten in their hand, doing whatever they

0:58:13.520 --> 0:58:16.000
<v Speaker 1>have to do to not face consequences for rocking their

0:58:16.120 --> 0:58:18.360
<v Speaker 1>natural hair. So basically, it's like a cast system for

0:58:18.520 --> 0:58:22.080
<v Speaker 1>your hair, all right. You know, instead of leaning into

0:58:22.080 --> 0:58:25.320
<v Speaker 1>your natural God giving black natural look, you know that

0:58:25.400 --> 0:58:27.800
<v Speaker 1>can lead to firings and removals from school, so you

0:58:27.920 --> 0:58:31.960
<v Speaker 1>end up conforming and leaning into eurocentric beauty standards. Okay,

0:58:32.440 --> 0:58:37.160
<v Speaker 1>all right, And that's what East Bernard, Texas is currently doing,

0:58:37.560 --> 0:58:40.400
<v Speaker 1>are making a young seventeen year old diary Williams have

0:58:40.440 --> 0:58:43.160
<v Speaker 1>to decide about, Okay, dropping a clues bombs for Diarry Williams.

0:58:44.600 --> 0:58:46.840
<v Speaker 1>He's just a young black man taking life one ghetto

0:58:46.920 --> 0:58:48.680
<v Speaker 1>day at the time. He's doing his best out here

0:58:48.720 --> 0:58:50.920
<v Speaker 1>to figure this life thing out, and he moved from Cincinnati,

0:58:51.000 --> 0:58:53.800
<v Speaker 1>Ohio to East Bernard, Texas and now because of the

0:58:53.840 --> 0:58:57.920
<v Speaker 1>school's discriminatory hair policy. Because it is discriminatory. It's preventing

0:58:58.000 --> 0:59:00.520
<v Speaker 1>him from doing things he loves to do, like running track.

0:59:00.560 --> 0:59:02.520
<v Speaker 1>And if he's not running track, he won't be noticed

0:59:02.520 --> 0:59:05.080
<v Speaker 1>by scouts for college scholarships. They won't even let him

0:59:05.120 --> 0:59:07.840
<v Speaker 1>go to coactice until he gets rid of his hair.

0:59:08.040 --> 0:59:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to NBC two for the report. Police Derry

0:59:10.240 --> 0:59:12.760
<v Speaker 1>william says his hair gives him pride. Without my hair,

0:59:12.880 --> 0:59:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't be the person that I am today. The

0:59:15.360 --> 0:59:18.280
<v Speaker 1>seventeen year old wants to be a veterinarian, runs track

0:59:18.360 --> 0:59:21.200
<v Speaker 1>two and hopes for a scholarship, but he fears that

0:59:21.400 --> 0:59:24.680
<v Speaker 1>won't happen. He's homeschooled, has been since his family moved

0:59:24.680 --> 0:59:28.040
<v Speaker 1>to East Bernard from Ohio in February. Mom does Aray

0:59:28.080 --> 0:59:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Bullocks says she tried to enroll him in East Bernard

0:59:30.520 --> 0:59:32.640
<v Speaker 1>High School, but when she was given the dress code,

0:59:32.680 --> 0:59:37.040
<v Speaker 1>she learned the boys cannot have hair past their ears.

0:59:37.520 --> 0:59:41.040
<v Speaker 1>And I explained to her that my son had locks

0:59:41.080 --> 0:59:43.160
<v Speaker 1>in his hair, and she was like, oh, well, he's

0:59:43.200 --> 0:59:45.680
<v Speaker 1>going to have to cut those. East Bernard ISD. Student

0:59:45.720 --> 0:59:49.200
<v Speaker 1>handbook outlines it's dress code and hair policy, which also

0:59:49.320 --> 0:59:53.560
<v Speaker 1>forbids quote, braided hair or twisted rose strands. Bullocks says

0:59:53.600 --> 0:59:56.200
<v Speaker 1>she eventually reached the superintendent and hopes of getting a

0:59:56.280 --> 0:59:59.200
<v Speaker 1>religious exemption. She got back with me and she said

0:59:59.600 --> 1:00:02.680
<v Speaker 1>dre it exam form will not be granted. It could

1:00:02.760 --> 1:00:04.800
<v Speaker 1>not be granted at this time. And a statement to

1:00:04.880 --> 1:00:08.800
<v Speaker 1>KPRC two East Bernard's superintendent of school said, in part quote,

1:00:09.080 --> 1:00:12.360
<v Speaker 1>East Bernard ISD has not denied enrollment to the individual

1:00:12.440 --> 1:00:16.360
<v Speaker 1>involved in this situation, as no enrollment or registration documents

1:00:16.400 --> 1:00:19.880
<v Speaker 1>have been filed. But Bullock says she didn't enrolland because

1:00:20.000 --> 1:00:24.720
<v Speaker 1>of the policy, my veterinarian can't wear dreadlocks. Dreadlocks. What

1:00:24.840 --> 1:00:27.680
<v Speaker 1>does Whoopie Goldberg think about this? What about Eva Duveney?

1:00:27.840 --> 1:00:29.840
<v Speaker 1>This is why the Crown Act needed to be passed

1:00:29.880 --> 1:00:31.440
<v Speaker 1>in all fifty states. Okay, if you don't know what

1:00:31.520 --> 1:00:33.800
<v Speaker 1>the Crown Act is, it stands for creating a respectful

1:00:33.800 --> 1:00:36.120
<v Speaker 1>and open world for natural hair. And it's a bill

1:00:36.400 --> 1:00:40.120
<v Speaker 1>that will ban race based hair discrimination and employment. Okay,

1:00:40.160 --> 1:00:43.560
<v Speaker 1>and for those participating in federally assisted programs, housing programs,

1:00:43.600 --> 1:00:47.200
<v Speaker 1>and public accommodations. I'm assuming it would impact schools too.

1:00:47.280 --> 1:00:50.080
<v Speaker 1>It passed the House last month, but of course has

1:00:50.120 --> 1:00:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to be approved by the Senate. Okay, before it sent

1:00:52.440 --> 1:00:54.560
<v Speaker 1>to the President's desk. But it's twenty twenty two and

1:00:54.640 --> 1:00:59.080
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about hair there. Uh no, we're not talking

1:00:59.080 --> 1:01:01.200
<v Speaker 1>about here. We're talking about systemic racism, and this is

1:01:01.240 --> 1:01:03.840
<v Speaker 1>just another example of how this system keeps their footing

1:01:03.840 --> 1:01:06.280
<v Speaker 1>on black people's Next, let's not get it aft up. Okay.

1:01:06.320 --> 1:01:08.919
<v Speaker 1>I don't care how many Kardashians you see with corn rolls.

1:01:08.960 --> 1:01:11.160
<v Speaker 1>When you hear a company you say you can't have braids,

1:01:11.720 --> 1:01:15.160
<v Speaker 1>corn rolls locks, those rules are for black people. Okay.

1:01:15.160 --> 1:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>And I know what you're thinking, Well, why doesn't he

1:01:17.040 --> 1:01:19.600
<v Speaker 1>just cut his hair? My rebuttal to that would be

1:01:19.920 --> 1:01:22.400
<v Speaker 1>why does he have to? Okay? What does hair have

1:01:22.520 --> 1:01:24.760
<v Speaker 1>to do with your level of brilliance? What does hair

1:01:24.800 --> 1:01:26.560
<v Speaker 1>have to do with your level of athletic ability? What

1:01:26.640 --> 1:01:28.919
<v Speaker 1>does hair have to do with your behavior? Okay? East

1:01:28.920 --> 1:01:30.640
<v Speaker 1>Bernard a High school? Why do you care about an

1:01:30.640 --> 1:01:33.560
<v Speaker 1>individual's hair at all? Okay? Not. The only way this

1:01:33.720 --> 1:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>is a fair policy is if it's hair and beauty

1:01:36.040 --> 1:01:38.640
<v Speaker 1>standards for white people in that school handbook. Okay, If

1:01:38.640 --> 1:01:40.800
<v Speaker 1>it's not, then this is nonsense. All right with this

1:01:40.840 --> 1:01:43.360
<v Speaker 1>school if told Albert Einstein his hair was violating some

1:01:43.480 --> 1:01:45.800
<v Speaker 1>type of hair policy, all right, Albert Einstein, one of

1:01:45.800 --> 1:01:48.120
<v Speaker 1>the most brilliant minds ever who gave us the theory

1:01:48.160 --> 1:01:50.320
<v Speaker 1>of relativity, where they have kicked him out of school

1:01:50.320 --> 1:01:52.920
<v Speaker 1>because his hair violated some type of hair policy. And

1:01:53.000 --> 1:01:55.400
<v Speaker 1>if you don't think these rules are rooted and any

1:01:55.440 --> 1:01:58.959
<v Speaker 1>type of discrimination, and simply google the case of Beverly Jenkins. Okay,

1:01:58.960 --> 1:02:01.360
<v Speaker 1>she was an employee for Blue Cross, all right, worked

1:02:01.400 --> 1:02:03.240
<v Speaker 1>for Blue Cross for three years, and then she started

1:02:03.280 --> 1:02:06.160
<v Speaker 1>wearing her hair naturally in an afro. When it came

1:02:06.240 --> 1:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>time for her to get a promotion, Beverly Jenkins was

1:02:08.640 --> 1:02:11.360
<v Speaker 1>denied and told she could never represent Blue Cross with

1:02:11.440 --> 1:02:15.840
<v Speaker 1>an afro. Beverly Jenkins sued for discrimination using the Civil

1:02:15.920 --> 1:02:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Rightsack in nineteen sixty four and Beverly Jenkins one trop

1:02:20.080 --> 1:02:25.680
<v Speaker 1>include boss for Beverly Jenkins. Gandhi once said, our ability

1:02:25.800 --> 1:02:28.520
<v Speaker 1>to reach unity in diversity will be the beauty and

1:02:28.560 --> 1:02:31.360
<v Speaker 1>the test of our civilization. Well, I don't know when

1:02:31.400 --> 1:02:33.400
<v Speaker 1>Gandhi said that, but I know he's been dead for

1:02:33.440 --> 1:02:35.920
<v Speaker 1>about seventy five years, so clearly he said that a long, long,

1:02:36.040 --> 1:02:38.640
<v Speaker 1>long time ago, and we still are a long way

1:02:38.920 --> 1:02:42.240
<v Speaker 1>from having any unity in diversity. So whatever tests Gandhi

1:02:42.360 --> 1:02:46.720
<v Speaker 1>was talking about, we have failed that with flying colors. Okay,

1:02:47.240 --> 1:02:49.680
<v Speaker 1>please let Remy may give East Bernard High School the

1:02:49.760 --> 1:02:55.160
<v Speaker 1>biggest he haw heh heh, you stupid mother? Are you dumb? Like?

1:02:55.280 --> 1:02:57.520
<v Speaker 1>Come on, man, all right, let the man walk in

1:02:57.600 --> 1:03:01.440

1:05:01.560 --> 1:05:03.160
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait to try it on. I hope it

1:05:03.240 --> 1:05:05.120
<v Speaker 1>like fits me right, I think it will, So I

1:05:05.200 --> 1:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>have two fittings for it. You go to the met

1:05:07.080 --> 1:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>with because the met is when you look at it,

1:05:08.880 --> 1:05:11.800
<v Speaker 1>sometimes a little boogie foo fooshi. Yeah, So who do

1:05:11.840 --> 1:05:14.120
<v Speaker 1>you kick it with in the met? Oh? Okay, So

1:05:14.440 --> 1:05:16.520
<v Speaker 1>the last time I went to met, my sister and

1:05:16.600 --> 1:05:19.240
<v Speaker 1>I went and I was really really nervous. I didn't

1:05:19.280 --> 1:05:21.000
<v Speaker 1>know what to expect. But when we got in the room,

1:05:21.080 --> 1:05:23.920
<v Speaker 1>it was like really chill. And I think it's because

1:05:24.040 --> 1:05:25.640
<v Speaker 1>none of us can like bring a plus one, so

1:05:25.800 --> 1:05:27.919
<v Speaker 1>we all just have to like mingle and like talk

1:05:28.040 --> 1:05:30.280
<v Speaker 1>and everything. So it was really fun. I had the

1:05:30.320 --> 1:05:32.560
<v Speaker 1>best time because usually when I go out places, I

1:05:32.680 --> 1:05:34.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of get a little nervous. But the met I

1:05:34.720 --> 1:05:36.840
<v Speaker 1>had the best time. You had your sister last time. Yeah,

1:05:36.840 --> 1:05:39.480
<v Speaker 1>so so now you got to go by yourself? Oh yeah,

1:05:39.600 --> 1:05:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't have there's no date for the met No,

1:05:41.800 --> 1:05:44.200
<v Speaker 1>just me, just me, So I gotta stuff out my

1:05:44.280 --> 1:05:46.160
<v Speaker 1>comfort zone. But it'll be fun. So what was table

1:05:46.200 --> 1:05:47.400
<v Speaker 1>do they put you on? Did they just did they

1:05:47.400 --> 1:05:50.560
<v Speaker 1>tell you what? Yeah? I have a designated table. I'll

1:05:50.600 --> 1:05:52.720
<v Speaker 1>be there with some of my friends, So I'm happy. Okay,

1:05:53.400 --> 1:05:56.360
<v Speaker 1>when you're navigating your way through this industry, it's clearly

1:05:56.440 --> 1:05:58.840
<v Speaker 1>easier to do it with your sister. Yes, absolutely So

1:05:58.960 --> 1:06:00.959
<v Speaker 1>do you like doing this solod thing? And I wanted

1:06:00.960 --> 1:06:04.360
<v Speaker 1>to sheet like doing this old thing? I it's definitely interesting.

1:06:04.560 --> 1:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>Like it's a whole other level of like fighting for

1:06:07.800 --> 1:06:10.520
<v Speaker 1>yourself and believing in yourself, because it's like when you

1:06:10.640 --> 1:06:13.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of go through like because not everything's gonna be

1:06:13.680 --> 1:06:15.280
<v Speaker 1>a high moment. So when you have those times when

1:06:15.280 --> 1:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>you're struggling, usually like we lean on each other and

1:06:18.000 --> 1:06:19.920
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh girl, like we got this, We'll pick

1:06:19.960 --> 1:06:22.840
<v Speaker 1>each other up. Now, it's like I have to really

1:06:22.920 --> 1:06:26.000
<v Speaker 1>solely believe in myself. So that's a little more scarier

1:06:26.440 --> 1:06:29.440
<v Speaker 1>and it's like it's harder to do, but I'm learning

1:06:29.480 --> 1:06:33.560
<v Speaker 1>every day now. They say the solo album is done, true,

1:06:33.880 --> 1:06:36.480
<v Speaker 1>it is true. I'm like, I'm creating every day still

1:06:36.520 --> 1:06:38.120
<v Speaker 1>to see if it's like missing that little thing. But

1:06:38.240 --> 1:06:40.480
<v Speaker 1>yet it's getting mixed right now and everything, so so

1:06:40.560 --> 1:06:42.720
<v Speaker 1>it's been turned into the label. It hasn't been turned in.

1:06:43.040 --> 1:06:45.240
<v Speaker 1>It's like getting like the final mixes and you know,

1:06:45.360 --> 1:06:47.600
<v Speaker 1>features and all that good stuff. So it's left when

1:06:47.600 --> 1:06:50.240
<v Speaker 1>you're dropping another single, are you just gonna yeah? Yeah,

1:06:50.280 --> 1:06:52.080
<v Speaker 1>that's you know. I can't wait for people to hear

1:06:52.120 --> 1:06:55.160
<v Speaker 1>the whole body of work because it's like so many

1:06:55.240 --> 1:06:57.920
<v Speaker 1>different sounds and layers to me, and I feel like

1:06:57.960 --> 1:07:00.200
<v Speaker 1>when you hear the full project, you'll understand me as

1:07:00.200 --> 1:07:02.520
<v Speaker 1>an artist. Um, but yeah, I'm probably gonna drop a

1:07:02.560 --> 1:07:04.520
<v Speaker 1>couple more songs before I dropped the album. How does

1:07:04.560 --> 1:07:06.200
<v Speaker 1>it feel look to go out? And I don't know

1:07:06.200 --> 1:07:07.760
<v Speaker 1>if you go out to the clubs much, but how

1:07:07.800 --> 1:07:09.480
<v Speaker 1>does it feel if you do to hear your club

1:07:09.600 --> 1:07:16.960
<v Speaker 1>work in the club work in the club? It's insane.

1:07:17.120 --> 1:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>It's a really great feeling. After treat Me came out, Um,

1:07:21.000 --> 1:07:23.880
<v Speaker 1>I went to this club and shout out to Sasha.

1:07:24.000 --> 1:07:26.280
<v Speaker 1>She performed it and I went out with her and

1:07:26.360 --> 1:07:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I was like, wow, it sounds really good in here.

1:07:28.760 --> 1:07:30.720
<v Speaker 1>And even when Have Mercy first hit and I was

1:07:30.760 --> 1:07:35.280
<v Speaker 1>in the clubs listening to yeah yeah, and it's still going.

1:07:35.400 --> 1:07:37.680
<v Speaker 1>So that makes me really happy. I'm excited to keep

1:07:37.760 --> 1:07:39.640
<v Speaker 1>doing that and do it more, you know, and treat me,

1:07:39.760 --> 1:07:42.800
<v Speaker 1>you say, treat me, treat me, treat me like I

1:07:42.960 --> 1:07:45.240
<v Speaker 1>treat me. Yeah, that's something you demand just in a

1:07:45.320 --> 1:07:48.920
<v Speaker 1>relationship or just with people period, you know. I think

1:07:49.040 --> 1:07:52.160
<v Speaker 1>just with people period. I'm learning every day that I

1:07:52.320 --> 1:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>have to command respect and boss up. It's something like

1:07:55.160 --> 1:07:58.560
<v Speaker 1>my god, Mom's always telling me, and it's really hard

1:07:58.680 --> 1:08:00.480
<v Speaker 1>for me right now if I'm being on because I'm

1:08:00.480 --> 1:08:03.400
<v Speaker 1>twenty three and I'm just like learning to command respect

1:08:03.520 --> 1:08:06.320
<v Speaker 1>and attention where I when I walk into a room,

1:08:06.400 --> 1:08:08.000
<v Speaker 1>and to just have people respect me for who I

1:08:08.040 --> 1:08:09.960
<v Speaker 1>am as a woman, not what I look like, but

1:08:10.160 --> 1:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>my mental and how I speak and everything like that.

1:08:12.960 --> 1:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>So I've been wondering about the whole respect thing just

1:08:15.320 --> 1:08:17.120
<v Speaker 1>in life, right because we always say we want, we

1:08:17.240 --> 1:08:19.920
<v Speaker 1>need people to respect us, but a personally can't respect

1:08:19.920 --> 1:08:22.280
<v Speaker 1>you if they don't respect themselves. You know, I don't

1:08:22.280 --> 1:08:24.080
<v Speaker 1>think it has anything to do with us. No, you know,

1:08:24.160 --> 1:08:26.519
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't. It doesn't. And I think what people give

1:08:26.560 --> 1:08:28.800
<v Speaker 1>you is how they're feeling internally. So a lot of

1:08:28.840 --> 1:08:31.680
<v Speaker 1>times too, if I'm not feeling the best, I have

1:08:31.800 --> 1:08:34.240
<v Speaker 1>to like check myself inside, like okay, what's going on?

1:08:34.360 --> 1:08:36.439
<v Speaker 1>So I don't give that out to people. You know

1:08:36.479 --> 1:08:38.080
<v Speaker 1>what I mean? And how was your mental because I

1:08:38.120 --> 1:08:40.559
<v Speaker 1>know people comment on everything that you do. It doesn't

1:08:40.560 --> 1:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>matter what you do, So how do you do that?

1:08:41.920 --> 1:08:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Do you read social media comments? Do you feed into

1:08:44.479 --> 1:08:47.400
<v Speaker 1>that or yeah? So I have an issue because sometimes

1:08:47.439 --> 1:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>I'll read it and then like I'll see that one

1:08:49.240 --> 1:08:50.880
<v Speaker 1>thing and it just kind of drives me mad. So

1:08:51.120 --> 1:08:53.320
<v Speaker 1>I have to like stay away from it. But of course,

1:08:53.320 --> 1:08:55.120
<v Speaker 1>because it's socials, you're like, okay, I want to check in.

1:08:55.200 --> 1:08:56.800
<v Speaker 1>I want to see people like the song. I want

1:08:56.800 --> 1:08:59.200
<v Speaker 1>to see of this. So it's like a push and

1:08:59.280 --> 1:09:00.760
<v Speaker 1>pull kind of thing where I have to I know

1:09:00.960 --> 1:09:03.639
<v Speaker 1>I shouldn't keep looking at it, but you know, we're human.

1:09:03.840 --> 1:09:05.519
<v Speaker 1>So do you limit yourself? Do you say, Okay, I'm

1:09:05.520 --> 1:09:06.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm only going to spend a this amount of time

1:09:07.000 --> 1:09:08.600
<v Speaker 1>or do you just like I try. I have the

1:09:08.640 --> 1:09:11.160
<v Speaker 1>whole social media limit thing on my phone and then

1:09:11.200 --> 1:09:13.840
<v Speaker 1>I keep denying it and it's like there's no point

1:09:13.880 --> 1:09:15.960
<v Speaker 1>where I have the time or on I always wonder

1:09:16.000 --> 1:09:18.800
<v Speaker 1>what y'all generation is social media to only gauge to

1:09:18.880 --> 1:09:23.720
<v Speaker 1>see if something's successful. Honestly, Yeah, like everything everything's so

1:09:23.960 --> 1:09:27.479
<v Speaker 1>reliant on numbers and analytics, and like it's cool because

1:09:27.520 --> 1:09:30.600
<v Speaker 1>without social media I wouldn't be here, but sometimes it

1:09:30.680 --> 1:09:33.120
<v Speaker 1>also sucks the fun out of the art. Yeah, if

1:09:33.160 --> 1:09:35.320
<v Speaker 1>you got haters, you got people that see you live

1:09:35.360 --> 1:09:36.840
<v Speaker 1>in your best life, so you doing your thing and

1:09:36.920 --> 1:09:39.639
<v Speaker 1>just want to say something negative. It sucks. It sucks,

1:09:39.680 --> 1:09:41.360
<v Speaker 1>and it's like a lot of times when it sucks

1:09:41.439 --> 1:09:44.080
<v Speaker 1>is when you see people spewing lies and making up

1:09:44.120 --> 1:09:46.760
<v Speaker 1>things about something that has nothing to do with you

1:09:46.880 --> 1:09:49.040
<v Speaker 1>or who you are as a person. That's when it's like, oh,

1:09:49.120 --> 1:09:51.760
<v Speaker 1>you're just making that up just to say it. Are

1:09:51.800 --> 1:09:55.240
<v Speaker 1>you still having problems speaking up for yourself? No? Okay, Well,

1:09:55.280 --> 1:09:57.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean I have like times where I have to

1:09:57.280 --> 1:10:00.360
<v Speaker 1>like give myself a little pep talk and then I

1:10:00.520 --> 1:10:02.560
<v Speaker 1>do it. So it's like taking me a while, but

1:10:02.720 --> 1:10:05.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm learning it now. Like, what's what instance where you

1:10:05.439 --> 1:10:08.400
<v Speaker 1>gotta give yourself a pep talk just if something doesn't

1:10:08.439 --> 1:10:10.240
<v Speaker 1>really sit right with me or if I wish it

1:10:10.400 --> 1:10:12.200
<v Speaker 1>was another way or like going this way, and I

1:10:12.320 --> 1:10:14.280
<v Speaker 1>know how I want it to be. I just kind

1:10:14.280 --> 1:10:16.479
<v Speaker 1>of have to like speak out for it, or like

1:10:16.560 --> 1:10:19.320
<v Speaker 1>if I don't fight for myself, then no one else will,

1:10:19.400 --> 1:10:21.479
<v Speaker 1>you know. So that's what I'm learning. Is it easy

1:10:21.520 --> 1:10:22.800
<v Speaker 1>to do it with you with your parents? Like with

1:10:22.880 --> 1:10:24.479
<v Speaker 1>your dad and the last time your dad was Is

1:10:24.479 --> 1:10:25.960
<v Speaker 1>it easy to say, no, Dad, this is what I

1:10:26.040 --> 1:10:29.360
<v Speaker 1>want because that's still your dad. That's your dad, baby,

1:10:29.479 --> 1:10:31.280
<v Speaker 1>Like how do you do it with that? Yeah? So

1:10:31.640 --> 1:10:34.280
<v Speaker 1>you know I love them and I am so grateful

1:10:34.320 --> 1:10:35.760
<v Speaker 1>for them, and how I am as a young woman.

1:10:35.800 --> 1:10:37.519
<v Speaker 1>And it's like now I'm twenty three, I want to

1:10:37.600 --> 1:10:39.920
<v Speaker 1>command on my own and do things on my own

1:10:40.000 --> 1:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>and like that's where it'll feel really good, where I'm

1:10:42.400 --> 1:10:45.720
<v Speaker 1>not relying on family or parents and I'm doing it

1:10:45.800 --> 1:10:50.720
<v Speaker 1>as a grown young woman, grown wrong woman. Is your

1:10:50.800 --> 1:10:53.679
<v Speaker 1>career is still fun? Are it starting to feel like work?

1:10:54.120 --> 1:10:56.160
<v Speaker 1>It's still fun. If it wasn't fun, I think I

1:10:56.840 --> 1:11:00.720
<v Speaker 1>stop it. Like the creative part and the forming that's

1:11:00.760 --> 1:11:03.600
<v Speaker 1>where I get my joy and my happiness, and like

1:11:04.080 --> 1:11:06.160
<v Speaker 1>where I also get my joy and happiness is when

1:11:06.600 --> 1:11:09.360
<v Speaker 1>I proved people wrong every time and it's like, yes,

1:11:09.479 --> 1:11:12.679
<v Speaker 1>I did it, and it's like that's the best feeling.

1:11:12.800 --> 1:11:14.760
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of times where it's like damn, I

1:11:14.800 --> 1:11:16.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't know it would be this difficult. I didn't know

1:11:16.280 --> 1:11:18.519
<v Speaker 1>it would be this hard. But it's like the good

1:11:18.600 --> 1:11:20.840
<v Speaker 1>always always the bad. Every time you want to play

1:11:20.880 --> 1:11:22.600
<v Speaker 1>a record this morning, I do. I would love to

1:11:22.840 --> 1:11:26.080
<v Speaker 1>change treat me, Yeah, I would. We got more with

1:11:26.200 --> 1:11:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Chloe Bailey where we come back, don't move. It's to

1:11:28.280 --> 1:11:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Breakfast Club the Morning, DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne the Guy.

1:11:33.120 --> 1:11:35.040
<v Speaker 1>We all the Breakfast Club were still kicking it with

1:11:35.120 --> 1:11:38.759
<v Speaker 1>Chloe Bailey, Shallowy and I. Recently you was talking about

1:11:39.160 --> 1:11:42.600
<v Speaker 1>musicians not making a lot of money. Yeah, and what

1:11:42.800 --> 1:11:44.120
<v Speaker 1>changes do you think it to be made in the

1:11:44.240 --> 1:11:47.320
<v Speaker 1>music industry. I definitely think the cuts and the percentages

1:11:47.400 --> 1:11:50.040
<v Speaker 1>we get and just how the whole thing kind of works.

1:11:50.160 --> 1:11:53.040
<v Speaker 1>But because all of us musicians love what we do,

1:11:53.160 --> 1:11:55.720
<v Speaker 1>we kind of just go with it. But you know,

1:11:55.880 --> 1:11:58.320
<v Speaker 1>it's a great branding tool and then that's when you

1:11:58.400 --> 1:12:00.320
<v Speaker 1>make money with the tours and all of the things

1:12:00.400 --> 1:12:02.880
<v Speaker 1>like that. So it has its highs and lows. So

1:12:03.200 --> 1:12:05.800
<v Speaker 1>that's with anything in any industry breaking down about it.

1:12:05.880 --> 1:12:09.760
<v Speaker 1>You're a producer as well, so produce supposed to get half, yeah,

1:12:10.080 --> 1:12:11.960
<v Speaker 1>but then with your sister, so you're supposed to get half,

1:12:12.000 --> 1:12:13.479
<v Speaker 1>and then you're supposed to get twenty five and then

1:12:13.600 --> 1:12:16.280
<v Speaker 1>she gets twenty five. But since it's your system. Yeah,

1:12:16.360 --> 1:12:19.080
<v Speaker 1>in terms of publishing, we always just split everything because

1:12:19.120 --> 1:12:21.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, we're equally contributing when it comes to like

1:12:21.760 --> 1:12:26.000
<v Speaker 1>me and my solo music, just as a producer if

1:12:26.080 --> 1:12:28.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm producing it, because producers will get a fee upfront

1:12:29.000 --> 1:12:31.000
<v Speaker 1>for producing the track, but if I'm producing it, I

1:12:31.040 --> 1:12:33.439
<v Speaker 1>don't get that because I'm the artist. So that's what

1:12:33.680 --> 1:12:35.760
<v Speaker 1>that's all I was really explaining on The Terrell Show

1:12:35.800 --> 1:12:37.680
<v Speaker 1>with how that works. But like if you go to

1:12:37.760 --> 1:12:40.599
<v Speaker 1>another big producer someone else, like they get a fee upfront,

1:12:40.680 --> 1:12:42.479
<v Speaker 1>but if I'm producing it myself, I don't get that

1:12:42.640 --> 1:12:45.439
<v Speaker 1>production fee per se. And yeah, I didn't understand that.

1:12:45.439 --> 1:12:46.920
<v Speaker 1>They said if you're if you're in a group and

1:12:47.000 --> 1:12:49.040
<v Speaker 1>you produce, you don't get paid as a producer. Yeah,

1:12:49.080 --> 1:12:50.800
<v Speaker 1>but even as me as a solo artist. If I

1:12:50.880 --> 1:12:53.320
<v Speaker 1>produce my own stuff, I don't get a production Really,

1:12:54.200 --> 1:12:59.360
<v Speaker 1>that makes zero sense. Yeah, it's just how I'm trying. Yeah,

1:12:59.479 --> 1:13:03.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm going right. She could be a cut back and

1:13:03.160 --> 1:13:05.360
<v Speaker 1>then you know, right, and then I'll just start producing

1:13:05.400 --> 1:13:07.360
<v Speaker 1>for other artists and easy and then I'll fix it.

1:13:07.560 --> 1:13:09.680
<v Speaker 1>When did you realize that the money was funny? Like?

1:13:09.760 --> 1:13:11.840
<v Speaker 1>When when did it first hit you? Like, wait a minute, something.

1:13:11.920 --> 1:13:14.960
<v Speaker 1>So I have a love hate relationship with money. I

1:13:15.120 --> 1:13:18.000
<v Speaker 1>love the things and the doors that it'll open, and

1:13:18.320 --> 1:13:20.600
<v Speaker 1>like how it makes you look on the outside and

1:13:20.720 --> 1:13:23.000
<v Speaker 1>like people respect you based on how you look, and

1:13:23.120 --> 1:13:25.640
<v Speaker 1>so that's cool and everything, but I hate like what

1:13:25.800 --> 1:13:28.160
<v Speaker 1>it does and the problems it causes and the greed

1:13:28.240 --> 1:13:30.599
<v Speaker 1>and all of that. Like I hate it. But when

1:13:30.640 --> 1:13:32.080
<v Speaker 1>did you realize that the money was funny? With the

1:13:32.160 --> 1:13:33.960
<v Speaker 1>music industry? With what I mean? Well, I mean we

1:13:34.080 --> 1:13:36.080
<v Speaker 1>always kind of knew that growing up, Like you'd hear

1:13:36.160 --> 1:13:39.240
<v Speaker 1>stories about like the people who inspired us and like

1:13:39.320 --> 1:13:41.839
<v Speaker 1>what to look out for and everything. But I'm grateful

1:13:41.880 --> 1:13:44.560
<v Speaker 1>that I'm in a good situation when it comes to

1:13:44.680 --> 1:13:46.880
<v Speaker 1>that side and everything. I just think it's really important

1:13:46.880 --> 1:13:49.519
<v Speaker 1>to be educated in that kind of way. And you know,

1:13:49.680 --> 1:13:52.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm really grateful for be in Parkwood because she's constantly

1:13:53.080 --> 1:13:56.000
<v Speaker 1>motivating me to kind of be educated in the business.

1:13:56.200 --> 1:13:58.320
<v Speaker 1>So you know, I kind of give all kudos to

1:13:58.439 --> 1:14:00.400
<v Speaker 1>her and my god mom for that, and like just

1:14:00.520 --> 1:14:03.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of being smart and witty with when it comes

1:14:03.080 --> 1:14:07.720
<v Speaker 1>to my stuff and like looking at budgets and everything. No,

1:14:08.120 --> 1:14:12.160
<v Speaker 1>not really like all like the fancy clothes and stuff like. No,

1:14:12.680 --> 1:14:15.080
<v Speaker 1>I love giving gifts. Sometimes it's harder for me to

1:14:15.160 --> 1:14:17.040
<v Speaker 1>do it for myself, so I'm not like a crazy

1:14:17.120 --> 1:14:19.760
<v Speaker 1>big spender. I am with food like every day on

1:14:19.920 --> 1:14:22.680
<v Speaker 1>Uber eats and Postmates. I'm kind of going crazy. But

1:14:23.720 --> 1:14:25.439
<v Speaker 1>we have no problem running up in the label for

1:14:25.520 --> 1:14:27.040
<v Speaker 1>you if they're not doing your Oh no no, not

1:14:27.240 --> 1:14:33.080
<v Speaker 1>not not up in the parent company. Not Now everything

1:14:33.200 --> 1:14:36.519
<v Speaker 1>is good, Everything is good, Okay, yeah, okay. Now it's

1:14:36.560 --> 1:14:38.439
<v Speaker 1>Chloe making the kind of music she wants to make.

1:14:38.600 --> 1:14:41.479
<v Speaker 1>I am okay, I am absolutely And I can't wait

1:14:41.560 --> 1:14:44.960
<v Speaker 1>for people to hear the album. Um. You know, with anything,

1:14:45.040 --> 1:14:48.240
<v Speaker 1>when you're kind of making music against the grain, you

1:14:48.280 --> 1:14:52.320
<v Speaker 1>always have pushback sometimes, but it's really exciting and you know,

1:14:52.479 --> 1:14:54.479
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait for people to catch up to the

1:14:54.600 --> 1:14:56.640
<v Speaker 1>music and enjoy it, and there's been a lot of

1:14:56.720 --> 1:14:59.120
<v Speaker 1>times where I'm like doubting, like is it okay? Maybe

1:14:59.160 --> 1:15:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I should make this kind of music. So it's like,

1:15:01.360 --> 1:15:02.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, but I'm like, let me just do what

1:15:02.960 --> 1:15:06.920
<v Speaker 1>makes me happy. Was Beyonce during this project? And did

1:15:06.960 --> 1:15:12.080
<v Speaker 1>she do her version? I love her because because she

1:15:12.360 --> 1:15:14.559
<v Speaker 1>like lets me fly and like do what I want

1:15:14.640 --> 1:15:16.920
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to music, and she'll give her notes

1:15:16.960 --> 1:15:18.840
<v Speaker 1>and like certain things, which I think is really dope

1:15:18.880 --> 1:15:23.320
<v Speaker 1>and cool. So be honest, you hate beyond No, no, no, Honestly,

1:15:24.200 --> 1:15:26.840
<v Speaker 1>that's what happens. I don't mind. I love her. I

1:15:26.840 --> 1:15:29.320
<v Speaker 1>can talk about her all damn. Though you didn't answer

1:15:29.360 --> 1:15:33.160
<v Speaker 1>that yet. That song been in? You heard it? No, cousin,

1:15:33.400 --> 1:15:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I haven't heard it. I we know it exists, though

1:15:35.920 --> 1:15:37.800
<v Speaker 1>we know what exists? Does it exist? I don't know,

1:15:38.920 --> 1:15:41.800
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't exist. I don't know. I don't know. We

1:15:41.920 --> 1:15:44.840
<v Speaker 1>think that budget for what would a budget just hypothetically, hypothetically,

1:15:44.920 --> 1:15:47.640
<v Speaker 1>what would a budget for a Beyonce Chloe video look like?

1:15:47.800 --> 1:15:55.599
<v Speaker 1>Right now? That's priceless. That's only have you ever thought

1:15:55.600 --> 1:15:58.280
<v Speaker 1>about the treatment what it would look like? I think

1:15:58.280 --> 1:16:00.920
<v Speaker 1>about treatments for a lot of things. Okay, okay, you shoot.

1:16:01.720 --> 1:16:04.800
<v Speaker 1>I think you know. I love the water, so you know,

1:16:05.120 --> 1:16:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I would shoot any video anywhere? Or would it be

1:16:08.120 --> 1:16:10.960
<v Speaker 1>like a dance battle like a versus like you versus her?

1:16:11.040 --> 1:16:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Like how would you think about No, I'm not qualified

1:16:13.320 --> 1:16:17.240
<v Speaker 1>for that. I still got to get there, but yeah,

1:16:17.320 --> 1:16:19.360
<v Speaker 1>I would love that one day. That would be really cool.

1:16:19.680 --> 1:16:21.519
<v Speaker 1>I am glad that you said that. You're still having

1:16:21.640 --> 1:16:23.519
<v Speaker 1>fun though, because the one thing I see I see

1:16:23.560 --> 1:16:25.360
<v Speaker 1>people on social media be like, oh my god, like

1:16:25.479 --> 1:16:28.840
<v Speaker 1>she she's always so happy like that can't be real.

1:16:29.160 --> 1:16:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Listen that. You know, she always comes off so media trade.

1:16:31.360 --> 1:16:34.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, but that's that's her. Yeah, yeah, yeah? That

1:16:35.000 --> 1:16:36.439
<v Speaker 1>did that bother you When you see people say that

1:16:36.560 --> 1:16:39.120
<v Speaker 1>like sometimes, but not anymore. I'm like, I don't really

1:16:39.160 --> 1:16:41.760
<v Speaker 1>care anymore. I just gotta be myself because it's like

1:16:41.840 --> 1:16:44.200
<v Speaker 1>if I change myself, then I'm doing exactly what they're

1:16:44.240 --> 1:16:46.920
<v Speaker 1>claiming I'm doing. That's right. You know, before we go,

1:16:47.120 --> 1:16:49.160
<v Speaker 1>last time you're saying you were having a problem dating,

1:16:49.200 --> 1:16:51.280
<v Speaker 1>it was like it's difficult for them to highlight you

1:16:51.320 --> 1:16:54.479
<v Speaker 1>and talk. How has it been now dating? Well, I'm single,

1:16:55.000 --> 1:16:58.880
<v Speaker 1>so dating it's been interesting. It's been interesting to say

1:16:58.960 --> 1:17:01.840
<v Speaker 1>the least. But it's cool because I'm like twenty three.

1:17:01.920 --> 1:17:03.919
<v Speaker 1>Like when I was in high school, I was homeschool

1:17:03.960 --> 1:17:05.719
<v Speaker 1>so I didn't really like dat a round or anything

1:17:05.800 --> 1:17:07.439
<v Speaker 1>like that. So now I'm like figuring out what I like,

1:17:07.560 --> 1:17:10.320
<v Speaker 1>what I don't like, what's acceptable was not acceptable. So

1:17:10.520 --> 1:17:12.880
<v Speaker 1>that's like where I am. Do guys talk to you?

1:17:13.600 --> 1:17:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Because I see everybody's through snapchat, like they want to

1:17:15.680 --> 1:17:18.080
<v Speaker 1>send messages Snapchat or dams, like, oh, guys actually pick

1:17:18.160 --> 1:17:20.360
<v Speaker 1>up the phone and trying to call or yeah, so

1:17:20.479 --> 1:17:22.720
<v Speaker 1>I'll get a lot of dms or like it'll happen

1:17:22.760 --> 1:17:24.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot in person because I don't really respond to

1:17:24.680 --> 1:17:26.400
<v Speaker 1>DM so it'll be like, why aren't you answering me?

1:17:26.439 --> 1:17:29.160
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, I'm not. I'm focused for myself right now.

1:17:30.000 --> 1:17:32.800
<v Speaker 1>But it's flattering. It's flattering. They had you linked the

1:17:32.800 --> 1:17:34.360
<v Speaker 1>gun and you saw a gun up here blushing when

1:17:34.400 --> 1:17:38.840
<v Speaker 1>he was up here. Yeah, I saw. I told him though,

1:17:38.840 --> 1:17:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I said, you can't play with that one. Yeah. Yeah. No,

1:17:41.160 --> 1:17:43.240
<v Speaker 1>he's a good friend and I'm happy with the music

1:17:43.320 --> 1:17:46.640
<v Speaker 1>we did together, and that's what that was. Yeah, we

1:17:46.760 --> 1:17:51.000
<v Speaker 1>have a release date? Can we round about time? I

1:17:51.120 --> 1:17:52.680
<v Speaker 1>don't have a release date, but I do want to

1:17:52.680 --> 1:17:56.920
<v Speaker 1>put it out before Grammy deadline in September, so hopefully soon. Okay, yeah,

1:17:57.080 --> 1:17:59.799
<v Speaker 1>that'll be great. Whenever God wanted to come out between

1:17:59.840 --> 1:18:03.040
<v Speaker 1>that period, it will be out. So between now and September,

<v Speaker 1>a touching chip to her daughter Gianna for her sixteenth

1:19:03.720 --> 1:19:06.960
<v Speaker 1>birthday in partnership with Nike. Now Nike posted it was

1:19:07.000 --> 1:19:09.360
<v Speaker 1>never about what she got from basketball. It was always

1:19:09.439 --> 1:19:12.679
<v Speaker 1>about what she gave back. Gig gave inspiration to her teammates,

1:19:12.720 --> 1:19:16.720
<v Speaker 1>her mentors, and the next generation. Hashtag played Gigi's way

1:19:16.800 --> 1:19:21.320
<v Speaker 1>hashtag Mamba Mambasita Sports. And here is what Vanessa Brian

1:19:21.400 --> 1:19:24.840
<v Speaker 1>had to say in this tribute. Dear Gianna, from the

1:19:24.960 --> 1:19:29.679
<v Speaker 1>first time you imagined winning a WNBA championship, I knew

1:19:29.760 --> 1:19:35.759
<v Speaker 1>one thing was real. You were special. You came from greatness,

1:19:36.160 --> 1:19:38.640
<v Speaker 1>but it was never about what you inherited. It was

1:19:38.720 --> 1:19:41.960
<v Speaker 1>about what you gave to others. When someone stands up

1:19:42.000 --> 1:19:46.840
<v Speaker 1>for gender equality, I see you fighting alongside them, and

1:19:47.080 --> 1:19:50.479
<v Speaker 1>every time someone plays her hardest, I know that's you

1:19:50.640 --> 1:19:55.240
<v Speaker 1>on the court. I love you always, basketball man. That's beautiful.

1:19:55.600 --> 1:19:57.560
<v Speaker 1>The sniggers are sold out too, By the way, and

1:19:57.680 --> 1:20:00.439
<v Speaker 1>lamar Odom got Kobe Bryant's face tattooed in his neck

1:20:00.520 --> 1:20:03.639
<v Speaker 1>after he said he had vivid dreams about Kobe while

1:20:03.680 --> 1:20:05.679
<v Speaker 1>he was in the Celebrity Big Brother House. He said,

1:20:05.720 --> 1:20:07.880
<v Speaker 1>it's just his face. It's on my neck. When I

1:20:08.000 --> 1:20:09.880
<v Speaker 1>was in the Celebrity Big Brother house. I dreamed of

1:20:10.000 --> 1:20:12.479
<v Speaker 1>him four or five times. They were really vivid and

1:20:12.600 --> 1:20:14.640
<v Speaker 1>easy to remember because he was talking to me in

1:20:14.680 --> 1:20:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the dreams. He just looked back to me and said

1:20:17.040 --> 1:20:19.800
<v Speaker 1>low that afterlife ain't what people make it up to be.

1:20:20.280 --> 1:20:22.479
<v Speaker 1>And I just kind of woke up. So he said

1:20:22.520 --> 1:20:24.680
<v Speaker 1>he was stunned and shocked from those dreams, but that

1:20:24.760 --> 1:20:26.640
<v Speaker 1>it could mean a lot of things. It could have

1:20:26.720 --> 1:20:29.160
<v Speaker 1>meant that he misses his people, misses his daughters. Could

1:20:29.200 --> 1:20:31.160
<v Speaker 1>have meant maybe his job wasn't finished. It. I woke

1:20:31.240 --> 1:20:34.759
<v Speaker 1>up really emotional after that. Let's talk about Black China.

1:20:35.080 --> 1:20:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Black China's jury is still deliberating whether the Kardashians are

1:20:38.280 --> 1:20:41.000
<v Speaker 1>on the hook for actually making sure that her season

1:20:41.080 --> 1:20:45.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't get a season two with Black China and Rob Kardashian.

1:20:45.120 --> 1:20:49.000
<v Speaker 1>But Kim Kardashian did go ahead, and when they tossed

1:20:49.040 --> 1:20:52.200
<v Speaker 1>out Black China's defamation claim against Kim Kardashian, so that's

1:20:52.200 --> 1:20:55.000
<v Speaker 1>a win for them. They said that Kim made no

1:20:55.280 --> 1:20:59.479
<v Speaker 1>defamatory statements against Black China, so they just dropped a

1:20:59.600 --> 1:21:02.680
<v Speaker 1>part of or her cases right her suits. Yeah, she

1:21:02.800 --> 1:21:04.880
<v Speaker 1>was asking for forty million dollars for that claim. But

1:21:04.920 --> 1:21:08.320
<v Speaker 1>they're still deliberating about why the season two didn't happen,

1:21:08.360 --> 1:21:11.960
<v Speaker 1>if it was because the Kardashian Jenners were responsible, or

1:21:12.040 --> 1:21:13.760
<v Speaker 1>if it wasn't going to happen in the first place.

1:21:14.439 --> 1:21:16.559
<v Speaker 1>You know what's scary that that story you told about

1:21:16.640 --> 1:21:20.479
<v Speaker 1>lamar In in Kobe. I don't know. I don't want

1:21:20.520 --> 1:21:25.559
<v Speaker 1>to have any memories of life in the afterlife. Wouldn't

1:21:25.600 --> 1:21:29.599
<v Speaker 1>that make being dead like like cruel and unusual punishment?

1:21:30.320 --> 1:21:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine still having a conscious of the life

1:21:32.400 --> 1:21:37.360
<v Speaker 1>you lived after you passed? Um? I mean, I just

1:21:37.439 --> 1:21:39.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know what it's like. I don't know if it's

1:21:39.120 --> 1:21:44.920
<v Speaker 1>a positive things like, yeah, So I can't say that

1:21:45.040 --> 1:21:47.439
<v Speaker 1>it's I can't say that it's a bad thing because

1:21:48.960 --> 1:21:52.000
<v Speaker 1>it sounds like a bad thing to have a consciousness

1:21:52.080 --> 1:21:55.960
<v Speaker 1>of your previous life while you have passed away. Oh

1:21:56.120 --> 1:21:59.360
<v Speaker 1>my god, can you imagine? Because that could in in

1:21:59.439 --> 1:22:01.640
<v Speaker 1>the afterlife if you're doing other thing too, you just

1:22:01.720 --> 1:22:05.759
<v Speaker 1>have memories and you're you know, meeting with other people

1:22:06.080 --> 1:22:11.599
<v Speaker 1>that are there as well. Who knows. All right, now,

1:22:11.640 --> 1:22:14.240
<v Speaker 1>they're saying that Pete Davidson may have gotten another tattoo,

1:22:14.720 --> 1:22:17.160
<v Speaker 1>and what they're saying this tattoo on his neck is

1:22:17.240 --> 1:22:22.000
<v Speaker 1>of Kim Kardashian's kids initials. So fans spotted that. They

1:22:22.040 --> 1:22:24.360
<v Speaker 1>said at the White House, corresponding Stanner, where Kim and

1:22:24.400 --> 1:22:27.639
<v Speaker 1>Pete Davidson were there together. And some people are saying

1:22:27.720 --> 1:22:30.200
<v Speaker 1>that the tattoo appears to show the letters, and we've

1:22:30.240 --> 1:22:34.479
<v Speaker 1>seen pictures of it K and SCP, so they're saying

1:22:34.560 --> 1:22:37.920
<v Speaker 1>that's for North Saint Chicago and PSALM. He's gonna get

1:22:37.960 --> 1:22:40.800
<v Speaker 1>on one knee, sting. I gotta talk to my bro, bro, Pete.

1:22:40.880 --> 1:22:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Let me talk. I talk to Pete, get on one

1:22:42.800 --> 1:22:45.400
<v Speaker 1>kneed and he'd ready now. Pete also addressed the Kanye

1:22:45.479 --> 1:22:49.160
<v Speaker 1>West harassment at the Netflix is a joke fest, and

1:22:49.320 --> 1:22:51.439
<v Speaker 1>so at his stop on the festival, he spoke publicly

1:22:51.479 --> 1:22:55.679
<v Speaker 1>about the situation. He actually made jokes about Kanye's behavior

1:22:55.760 --> 1:22:59.320
<v Speaker 1>toward him, including an incident where Kanye attempted to spread

1:22:59.400 --> 1:23:02.559
<v Speaker 1>rumors that Davidson had contracted AIDS. He said, I had

1:23:02.560 --> 1:23:06.040
<v Speaker 1>an AID scare this year, and he said that he

1:23:06.720 --> 1:23:10.880
<v Speaker 1>went to his doctor for a checkup. That is true though, yeah, well,

1:23:11.560 --> 1:23:13.640
<v Speaker 1>he went on to say, am I the only one

1:23:13.680 --> 1:23:17.200
<v Speaker 1>who secretly helps Kanye? Will go full missus? Doubtfire as

1:23:17.280 --> 1:23:19.320
<v Speaker 1>far as trying to spend more time with his children

1:23:19.360 --> 1:23:22.320
<v Speaker 1>by posing as a housekeeper and his ex wife home.

1:23:22.560 --> 1:23:24.880
<v Speaker 1>So there's a few other things that he said, so

1:23:25.000 --> 1:23:26.360
<v Speaker 1>you can see he's going to be taking this on

1:23:26.439 --> 1:23:28.639
<v Speaker 1>the road and making jokes about his real life as

1:23:28.680 --> 1:23:32.040
<v Speaker 1>he should. Like listen, when you're a comedian or anybody

1:23:32.200 --> 1:23:35.080
<v Speaker 1>like that, like your life is your content. Why wouldn't

1:23:35.120 --> 1:23:37.760
<v Speaker 1>you do that? M All right, well that is your

1:27:35.960 --> 1:27:40.479
<v Speaker 1>It's a simple yes or no. I pleaded the fifth, sir. Wow, okay,

1:27:40.600 --> 1:27:45.920
<v Speaker 1>that'll that'll be. That'll get you a headline, get your headline.

1:27:45.960 --> 1:27:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Asked that question. When they asked you that question and

1:27:47.360 --> 1:27:49.439
<v Speaker 1>you say I plead the fifth, that's a headline. That's

1:27:49.479 --> 1:27:52.920
<v Speaker 1>a headline. Yeah, goodness, you got a positive text, Claudia

1:28:01.120 --> 1:28:03.719
<v Speaker 1>I swear by it. But one of the four agreements

1:28:03.840 --> 1:28:06.760
<v Speaker 1>is don't take anything personally. Nothing others do is because

1:28:06.800 --> 1:28:09.400
<v Speaker 1>of you. What others say and do is a projection

1:28:09.439 --> 1:28:12.040
<v Speaker 1>of their own reality, their own dream. When you are

1:28:12.080 --> 1:28:14.519
<v Speaker 1>immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't

1:28:14.520 --> 1:28:18.360
