You know, 53 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: when people come to New York, they fly in to Queens, 54 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: they don't even know they're there. You know what I'm saying, 55 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 1: just like, oh, this feels far from where I want 56 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: to be.

It's like city mentality. It's 66 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: like a small town in a big town. Even though 67 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: like Queens. The borough itself is bigger than most cities. 68 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 2: But yeah, and then and so being from Queens and whatnot, 69 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 2: I know New York has, like you know, probably the 70 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: number one place for a stand up and stuff? Was 71 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 2: it like stand up that you start at first? Was 72 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: it like play stuff? 73 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: You know? 74 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: Was it was it early school? Like? What was the 75 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 2: path there? 76 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: Certain improv I did it through four to one stuff 77 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 1: and then like like I paid for one on one 78 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: and then through the rest. I just like I like 79 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: wrote an essay for a scholarship because it was like 80 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: hell of white. It was spaces I wasn't used to. 81 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: So I bounced around. I went to like a lot 82 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: of high schools and like the bubbles and shit I 83 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: was in. I just like, yeah, I was just used 84 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: to being like with black people and people of color, 85 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: and I was I'm from the project, so like I 86 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: didn't really I don't really like hang out with white 87 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: people except like Sprinkling's at school. But you know, it 88 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: wasn't something I was used to till I started comedy. 89 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 3: You know, how did you learn how to navigate those 90 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 3: spaces with it being so different than what you're normally from? 91 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: Well, I I was kind of like used to. I mean, 92 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: like a story of queens is kind of like a 93 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: molting melting pot a bit. So I kind of was 94 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: just like, you know, like there they are, you know, 95 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's like you know people 96 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: like you know, it's kind of like when Tony Morrison 97 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 1: was being asked, you know, like about invisible Man. She 98 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 1: was like invisible. She was basically like saying, with this 99 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: today's version would be like invisible man is mid Basically 100 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: she was like invisible to who you know, just like 101 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: I'm write stories for us, you know. That's how I felt. 102 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: That's how I like, I'll be around them, but you know, 103 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: and I know how to move because I'm not trying 104 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: to really be seen by them, right. So it's like 105 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: when it's in that it's like, yeah, I can get 106 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 1: along with you. I'm just gonna go back home, you 107 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I'm would go do we can 108 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: hang out, but you know what I'm saying. So you know, 109 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 1: that was kind of my mindset at least, you know, 110 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: I wasn't improv because I wanted to do that ship 111 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,720 Speaker 1: and they just to be there and then I go home. 112 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 2: It's kind of interesting because I think, especially you being 113 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 2: from New York Queens, and I know this is true, 114 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: Like at least with my upbringing Charlotte. You know, my 115 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: home and everything in my home is black, you know 116 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 2: what I'm saying, My neighborhood projects I was born in, 117 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: all that shit is black. But then like as I 118 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 2: started achieving, it's like you get moved into this other 119 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: path where you just be around white people whether you 120 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,159 Speaker 2: want to or not. It's just like this is what 121 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 2: the resources are. So if you get in an academically 122 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 2: gifted class, all of a sudden, this is a whier 123 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 2: class than the class I was in. You know, you 124 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: get scholarships, internships, all that type of shit. You know, 125 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 2: I did an internship with IBM for a bit. I 126 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: hated it, and I was like the only black kid there. 127 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,359 Speaker 2: So it is like this kind of thing where you 128 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 2: do have to learn how to navigate it. But it 129 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: is to me, I thought it was easier. It was 130 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 2: kind of easy to navigate because they don't really be 131 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 2: checking for you, you know what I mean, Like it's 132 00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: they cool with you going back home to your crib. 133 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,679 Speaker 2: They're not really trying to do the barbecue or whatever. 134 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 2: They're like, all right, cool, it was nice Rod, five o'clock, 135 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 2: see you later, right, And it's interesting that like artists space, 136 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 2: I think people don't see it the same because people 137 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: see like artists as like life, you know what I'm saying, 138 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 2: Like that's your whole life. So if you were in improv, 139 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: these people your friends. But it sounded like it was 140 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: kind of like work for you, where you was like, 141 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 2: all right, cool, five o'clock. Back to the crib, y'all 142 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: have a good one, see out the next class. 143 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was kind of moving around also. My brother 144 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: kind of I have an older brother, and he kind 145 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: of felt like he had to go out into those 146 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: spaces first, and I kind of learned a little bit 147 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: vicariously through him a little bit. He went to Obland, 148 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: So like I would my mom a couple of times, 149 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: maybe two three times a year you're picking them up 150 00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 1: or going to visit him, he would, like, you know, 151 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:57,320 Speaker 1: we would go drive eight hour drive to Oberland, Ohio, 152 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: and you know, see how muche people staying in the 153 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: most tell six the whole thing. Like it was wild. 154 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: Seeing my brother and just seeing that campus kind of 155 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: opened my eyes a little bit, you know what I mean. 156 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: And just so going to. 157 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 2: His Yeah, we'll go ahead.

You know, 161 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: I always felt no matter who I was friends with, 162 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 1: associated with black, white or whatever, like home for me 163 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: is like wherever my grandma was.

He was great, no, no, 502 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 2: but Donald GLOVERI out so you got put in time out. 503 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,640 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I do think it was. I think 504 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: it's when I actually had the interview. When I got 505 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: the call from Donald that I got the job, I 506 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: was on my I was getting ready to go to work, 507 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: which was Masal at the time. So I got the call, 508 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: I got the job, and then I went to my 509 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: other job. So knowing a job is ending and having 510 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: a job come up with so mental to me, I think. 511 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 1: And then it didn't feel real until I was there. 512 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: I felt like so intimidated. I feel like a real 513 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: you know, I feel especially for black writers, any creatives, 514 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: anybody in Hollywood, or just anything that black people could 515 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 1: try to do. It's like I felt such wild imposter syndrome. 516 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: I didn't feel like I'm the man. I didn't feel 517 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: like you know, yeah, I suffered for a while. It 518 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: wasn't like as fun as the place hanging out with 519 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: my friends. It wasn't I had to like, you know, 520 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: quote unquote graduate like I had to I had to 521 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: like push forward for these things and things that I didn't 522 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: know I could do, because like, you know, it feels 523 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 1: like with like I guess, like hard work or like 524 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 1: any kind of opportunity. You never know how much more 525 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: you can do until you like push outside of that. 526 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 1: And it felt like it felt like a little for me, 527 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 1: or at least how I felt it felt like something 528 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: I could do. But that was a little for in 529 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 1: the strength, in the sense of me trying to get stronger, 530 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: a little bit out of my reach, right in terms 531 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: of what I thought for myself. Maybe that was me 532 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: just playing in small but it felt a little bit 533 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 1: outside of my own reach. 534 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I think a lot of people can identify 535 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 2: with that. I definitely can. I did relate to that. 536 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 2: And it's so interesting because if someone were to tell 537 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 2: you your resume for another person, you probably wouldn't feel 538 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 2: that right. The songs like Yo, this motherfucker heard a 539 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 2: faux pas on TV, constructed a play for two years? 540 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 2: Did this fucking play out?

It was like, yeah, of course 543 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 2: that niggas gonna be righting for Atlanta, Like that's that's 544 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 2: a career trajectory. But when it's it's something about when 545 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 2: it's you, it's like, yeah, but I don't know am 546 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:03,959 Speaker 2: I doing too much?

I think I 554 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: struggled with it, especially for that show, because I wasn't 555 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: on the previous shows, and it was so mental to 556 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: me because I went from being in the in the 557 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: space that Atlanta was on the air and then was 558 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 1: trying to come back.

I try to get off it. But some 714 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,120 Speaker 1: things are interesting. People seem to like Trinny to the bone. 715 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:59,400 Speaker 1: It's but it's a little polarizing at times. But some 716 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: people are like it's the best one, it's the worst one. 717 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: I don't know what you know. I don't know what to. 718 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 2: Think, but I love I love he loved this season 719 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,440 Speaker 2: because I was reading something, uh, I think it was 720 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,400 Speaker 2: one of the Stephen Glover interviews, and but one of 721 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 2: the things he said was is kind of like American Dad. 722 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,560 Speaker 2: Like each episode is like almost like a capsule that 723 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,799 Speaker 2: can reset and then you can watch you can watch 724 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 2: episode six and not watch seven and eight. And still 725 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 2: get the gist of it, right, and there's something that's 726 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 2: so dope about that. And as a person that watches 727 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 2: like American Dad about like five nights a week, I 728 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,399 Speaker 2: was like, I said, oh, no, one not like this shit. 729 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 2: It do kind of feel like, you know, almost like 730 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 2: a like an encapsulated thing. And then I like, I 731 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 2: love the anthology episodes. The I think the most thing 732 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:52,880 Speaker 2: I like about Atlanta is that's never what I expect. 733 00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,680 Speaker 2: It's always something different. I don't like, I think want 734 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 2: the same thing. People believe they want the same shit 735 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 2: over and over. But if you look at the shows 736 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 2: that give you the same shit, everyone ends up hating 737 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 2: them so quick. It'd be like they did just Nigga 738 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 2: selling drugs again, Like, well, that's what the Power. That's 739 00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 2: what they do on Power, They sell drugs. 740 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? 741 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, but our season five, like, oh, let me guess 742 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 2: he's gonna sell some drugs. I'm like, all right, So 743 00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 2: y'all don't really want the same shit. So it's kind 744 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 2: of hard to be on the other side of that 745 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 2: making the creative decision because you have to kind of 746 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 2: anticipate the audience needs and wants before they even know 747 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 2: what they want. And I feel like that's how the 748 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 2: season has been, where it's like, uh, at least to me, 749 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 2: it was like so different.

Or 866 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 2: is it still kind of that almost the imposter syndrome, 867 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 2: think of like, man, I just don't want to have 868 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 2: a whack episode. I don't want nobody to be like 869 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 2: his shit was whack, the rest of the shit was hot, 870 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 2: you know, like, what's your mentality going into it? 871 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:34,000 Speaker 1: I think if each episode kind of builds to making 872 00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 1: the show more singular than people remembering why they missed it. 873 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:45,560 Speaker 1: I think the competitiveness because of how specific and I 874 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 1: think once in a generation special the show is, it 875 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: makes it competitive toward to push It makes it competitive 876 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:00,439 Speaker 1: in the sense of pushing the idea of competition out 877 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:04,080 Speaker 1: because we're really in just competition with ourselves at some point. 878 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 1: That would make it seem like only we can be 879 00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:11,279 Speaker 1: competitive with other seasons of Atlanta. So, you know, I 880 00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 1: think that's how it feels. And I think that, you know, 881 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: Donald saying only you know, uh sopranos can touch us 882 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: as like bold and something that's just like yeah, kind 883 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 1: of you know talking ship. Yeah, you know, I loved 884 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 1: my episode for talking about parts of the diaspora you 885 00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:38,279 Speaker 1: know that are really rarely touched upon. I thought I 886 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,800 Speaker 1: thought mine was a was a standout in the sense 887 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 1: of not only when do we ever see that, but 888 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:52,440 Speaker 1: you know, reparations and uh you know it was the 889 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 1: was the other stuff up. 890 00:49:55,000 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, reparations for the big payback you had U okay, 891 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 2: turning to the bone. What else am I missing? 892 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:03,759 Speaker 1: Oh? 893 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 2: Three three slaps is kind of a step out. 894 00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:09,799 Speaker 1: Because yeah, that was But yeah, I feel like there 895 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 1: are different things that were like either touchdown, touched on 896 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 1: or reimagining that this one kind of hit in a 897 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:23,400 Speaker 1: different sense, at least emotionally. You know, I think that 898 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 1: the competition lies. And you know, one of the things 899 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:33,279 Speaker 1: Donald said, uh like first day he also wrote on 900 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,280 Speaker 1: the board is like do what others can't mm hmmm, 901 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 1: and no one else regardless of how they feel about 902 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,359 Speaker 1: the season.

But yeah, so with the with the average room, 1163 01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:25,480 Speaker 2: that's dope. Now what is you don't have the name names, 1164 01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 2: but what's a bad writer's room experience? What's that? 1165 01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:34,880 Speaker 1: Like?

I don't want to take you back to 1167 01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 2: this far. 1168 01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:44,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll just say that when especially you're working 1169 01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 1: with black people, I won't name it specifically, but I'll 1170 01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:50,360 Speaker 1: just say specifically, when you are on bad shows, that's 1171 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:54,240 Speaker 1: sometimes when you meet the most talent. Like I was 1172 01:05:54,280 --> 01:05:56,560 Speaker 1: on a bad show where you know, if I told 1173 01:05:56,560 --> 01:05:59,160 Speaker 1: you the people who are associated with it, you know, 1174 01:05:59,240 --> 01:06:01,920 Speaker 1: including myself it's just like so wild what those people 1175 01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:04,760 Speaker 1: went on to do, right, And I think more important 1176 01:06:05,080 --> 01:06:09,640 Speaker 1: realizing the talent that kind of you know, it was 1177 01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 1: going to succeed regardless of someone trying to mute you. 1178 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:14,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1179 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:18,960 Speaker 1: And I think that, you know, weirdly, not even trauma bonding, 1180 01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,600 Speaker 1: but the bonding that comes from seeing other talented people 1181 01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:24,800 Speaker 1: in the face of someone trying to kind of mute 1182 01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 1: your own, your own star. I think it's you know, powerful, 1183 01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:34,120 Speaker 1: you know, more important than like citing what it was specifically. 1184 01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 1: I think it's just speaks to people's resilience and knowing 1185 01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:40,280 Speaker 1: that you know, the cream you know, rises to the top. 1186 01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:44,000 Speaker 2: It's also like there's power offee Black, you know what 1187 01:06:44,040 --> 01:06:47,040 Speaker 2: I'm saying. There's also power and knowledge and learning what 1188 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 2: you don't want, what you ain't gonna do again that 1189 01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 2: you know, yes, yes, then you have standards. You'd be like, 1190 01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 2: you know what, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna deal 1191 01:06:57,640 --> 01:06:58,520 Speaker 2: with this and it's come out. 1192 01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:02,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, And you can also see trouble coming, if that 1193 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 3: makes sense. And and just in jobs in general, if 1194 01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:09,000 Speaker 3: you've had enough experience, because I've been at working environments, well, 1195 01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:12,000 Speaker 3: all of a sudden you'll see people up start abandoning 1196 01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:14,680 Speaker 3: ship and I tell people, I say, oh, something coming down. 1197 01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:16,280 Speaker 2: They was like, well, I say, don't you sit. 1198 01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,840 Speaker 1: On people up shop top jumping ship whatever that is. 1199 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:20,200 Speaker 2: It's getting red triggered all down. 1200 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:23,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, no, that's valid. That's valid. Cam. I'm glad 1201 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:28,440 Speaker 1: you said that, because people like if the standards, standards, 1202 01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:32,160 Speaker 1: you know, go hand in hand with the boundaries, and 1203 01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 1: you got what not gonna accept and what people you're 1204 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:42,040 Speaker 1: gonna let in, and you know, that's a real that's 1205 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:44,640 Speaker 1: a real thing. That's important, I think especially for black 1206 01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 1: people because we think to like go out of our 1207 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:50,919 Speaker 1: way and we need to do extra credit and yeah, 1208 01:07:51,840 --> 01:07:53,840 Speaker 1: and then one person out of time and all this 1209 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:57,800 Speaker 1: other ship and so we overstep or used to people 1210 01:07:57,920 --> 01:08:02,000 Speaker 1: stepping over us, you know, to a certain point. We 1211 01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:05,320 Speaker 1: don't understand what some boundaries are. We think. We think 1212 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:08,520 Speaker 1: there's a lot of black people who think overstepping boundaries 1213 01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 1: is love. 1214 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:11,440 Speaker 2: Yes, that's a bar. 1215 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:12,480 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1216 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of people don't understand it. And me personally, 1217 01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:18,240 Speaker 3: and I think you can only. 1218 01:08:18,000 --> 01:08:19,120 Speaker 1: Get that through experience. 1219 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:24,400 Speaker 3: And what I realize is that you have to know yourself. 1220 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 3: And when you don't have boundaries. It is an emotional 1221 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 3: roller coaster because people don't know the boundaries that you 1222 01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:36,800 Speaker 3: haven't set yet. But you don't know the boundaries until 1223 01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:39,439 Speaker 3: they cross the boundaries. So so it's so it's like 1224 01:08:39,479 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 3: a I wanna say a cat and mouse game is 1225 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,639 Speaker 3: like you're learning yourself while other people are learning you, 1226 01:08:45,120 --> 01:08:47,840 Speaker 3: and then once you set them boundaries, it's healthier for you. 1227 01:08:48,200 --> 01:08:50,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh for sure. That was things this year where 1228 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:52,840 Speaker 2: it was like, uh, i'd see somebody else say no 1229 01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:54,680 Speaker 2: to something, I'll be like, we can say no to that. 1230 01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:59,599 Speaker 2: Like it was like there was this thing where they 1231 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:02,960 Speaker 2: were gonna do a sketch and for part of the 1232 01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:05,880 Speaker 2: sketch they wanted to like pan over to people to 1233 01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:10,600 Speaker 2: like black people sitting down eating like lobster, drinking champagne. 1234 01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:12,479 Speaker 2: But you were gonna be out in the street, you know, 1235 01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:15,439 Speaker 2: And it's just like a funny cutaway, the kind of 1236 01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:17,200 Speaker 2: thing that's like a one second joke but could also 1237 01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:20,760 Speaker 2: be cut you'd be out there for no reason.

But up until that point, I didn't even know, 1248 01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:47,200 Speaker 2: Like it's because it's nebulous a little bit. It's not 1249 01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:49,640 Speaker 2: the same as like an office where it's like you 1250 01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:52,320 Speaker 2: take your break at three fifteen, Like, it's not that 1251 01:09:52,400 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 2: kind of shit.

But uh, congratulations, you keep working on that. Yeah, 1302 01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:03,400 Speaker 2: he's also like not this is the first time it 1303 01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:06,520 Speaker 2: seemed like he's not sharing shit from a moral authority, 1304 01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:10,040 Speaker 2: which is interesting. Like this many albums in and he's 1305 01:13:10,040 --> 01:13:13,920 Speaker 2: finally like, actually, y'all, I don't know. I don't get 1306 01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:16,200 Speaker 2: out of answers like no one is the opposite when 1307 01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:18,120 Speaker 2: a niggas like the more motherfucker get older, you know, 1308 01:13:18,240 --> 01:13:20,479 Speaker 2: old black man, the more they get older by the end, 1309 01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,840 Speaker 2: it's just like and you niggas is the real problem 1310 01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:25,679 Speaker 2: if you think about it, like his old album is like, man, 1311 01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 2: I don't know, leave me alone. I'm listen. I'm doing 1312 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,800 Speaker 2: this album because it's my last studio album, and I'm obligated. 1313 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:36,519 Speaker 1: I ain't gonna I'm gonna hold you. Though. I loved it. 1314 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I so much of it I replayed. I 1315 01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:42,559 Speaker 1: could hear that it was a therapy session. 1316 01:13:42,600 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 2: I think. 1317 01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:45,800 Speaker 1: Also, and also I like what you said of it 1318 01:13:45,960 --> 01:13:48,599 Speaker 1: by virtue of it being like the first therapy session, 1319 01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:52,120 Speaker 1: because you can hear like you know, he's not only 1320 01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:54,960 Speaker 1: new to it, but he's remembering all the things in 1321 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,639 Speaker 1: his life, parsons like where he probably could have used 1322 01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:00,280 Speaker 1: that shit. Yeah, so that's what he's also bringing up 1323 01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:03,240 Speaker 1: while he's talking about it and not trying to. Also, 1324 01:14:03,560 --> 01:14:05,920 Speaker 1: I think, especially for black men, use your woman as 1325 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:09,960 Speaker 1: your therapist. Your woman is not your therapist. She's not 1326 01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:12,960 Speaker 1: your yeah, your punch of bags, none of that she 1327 01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:15,240 Speaker 1: doesn't have to, you know what I'm saying. You know 1328 01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 1: know that that's a separate thing. The father's time, I 1329 01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 1: think was the first part of the first act. Break 1330 01:14:21,600 --> 01:14:24,920 Speaker 1: and realization of that. But being like he's also speaking 1331 01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:27,559 Speaker 1: for a generation, you know what I'm saying. I needed 1332 01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:29,400 Speaker 1: that far. I needed that far the time. 1333 01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:32,400 Speaker 2: It was so good and I haven't. 1334 01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:34,880 Speaker 1: Spoken my father in months, and the nigga, you know, 1335 01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:38,160 Speaker 1: never loved me, you know what I'm saying. And I 1336 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:40,719 Speaker 1: had to realize that even from reading like Belle Hooks, 1337 01:14:40,760 --> 01:14:43,040 Speaker 1: like during I mean, we had a lot of time 1338 01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:45,559 Speaker 1: during Quarantine that I love it. 1339 01:14:45,640 --> 01:14:50,080 Speaker 7: I love reading before, but I was reading her more 1340 01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:56,600 Speaker 7: books at once, from bugs all about love again and 1341 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:59,880 Speaker 7: then we real cool and it's just like talking about 1342 01:14:59,880 --> 01:15:02,960 Speaker 7: how like love and abuse can't exist in the same 1343 01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 7: space people Black people can go about this all day 1344 01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 7: and it's just it just ain't real, you know what 1345 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:08,519 Speaker 7: I'm saying. 1346 01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 1: You just can't have both. And she had to come 1347 01:15:10,520 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 1: to that realization, and that made me kind of, you know, 1348 01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:19,280 Speaker 1: realize that at the same time, you know, I think, uh, 1349 01:15:20,520 --> 01:15:23,960 Speaker 1: and I you know, it's uh. I just look at 1350 01:15:24,400 --> 01:15:31,679 Speaker 1: him as something that's like a generational kind of talent 1351 01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:35,120 Speaker 1: that's able to surmarize the thoughts and feelings of emotions 1352 01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:37,639 Speaker 1: of like black men like my age. You know, yeah 1353 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:43,679 Speaker 1: about age. He's also a Gemini. You know, the same 1354 01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:44,599 Speaker 1: birthday as Kanye. 1355 01:15:45,320 --> 01:15:46,639 Speaker 2: Oh wow. Okay, Okay. 1356 01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 1: I've learned a lot less and I've been telling a 1357 01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:50,080 Speaker 1: lot less people. 1358 01:15:49,960 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 2: That lately, Yeah, what change? What changed? 1359 01:15:54,920 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 3: And I don't blame you when you was talking about 1360 01:15:57,479 --> 01:16:00,800 Speaker 3: love and abuse, particularly for a lot of people, loving 1361 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:03,640 Speaker 3: abuse is normal, so and so. 1362 01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:05,880 Speaker 2: And for a lot of people loving abuse, it's the. 1363 01:16:05,840 --> 01:16:10,559 Speaker 1: Same right while they're saying, I'm doing this while I 1364 01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 1: love you, And. 1365 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 3: So it's really hard to separate those things because if 1366 01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:17,280 Speaker 3: you separate them and you begin to look at them 1367 01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:21,360 Speaker 3: for what they are, you get a better understanding of 1368 01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:25,400 Speaker 3: everything around you. And also, I've come to this realization 1369 01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:26,080 Speaker 3: about parents. 1370 01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:28,920 Speaker 2: Parents are people. Parents are flawed people. 1371 01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:32,479 Speaker 3: Society raises us to put parents on a pedestal, like 1372 01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:34,719 Speaker 3: our parents can never do no wrong. And I understand 1373 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,519 Speaker 3: that because they raised you, they fed you and all 1374 01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 3: that stuff, But they are flawed people. And once you 1375 01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:42,320 Speaker 3: look at your parents as an individual person, that life 1376 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:46,440 Speaker 3: has came along and they've made different decisions. These decisions 1377 01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:49,200 Speaker 3: do impact you, but once you go, oh, you're a 1378 01:16:49,240 --> 01:16:53,799 Speaker 3: person that made these decisions, your perspective of them will change. 1379 01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:56,519 Speaker 3: Not that you got to forgive or have compassionate and 1380 01:16:56,560 --> 01:16:59,280 Speaker 3: it doesn't it raise anything that they've done, but you 1381 01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:01,599 Speaker 3: just look at them very, very differently. You don't look 1382 01:17:01,640 --> 01:17:03,680 Speaker 3: at them from the eyes of a child. You look 1383 01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 3: at them from the eyes of another adult looking at 1384 01:17:05,800 --> 01:17:06,559 Speaker 3: another adult. 1385 01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:09,040 Speaker 2: Well, a lot of it is too like the parent 1386 01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:13,760 Speaker 2: industrial complex, right, It's like where it's sold to you 1387 01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:16,800 Speaker 2: as like perfection, this is the this is your God, 1388 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:19,960 Speaker 2: this is the person that's gonna do everything for you, 1389 01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:23,280 Speaker 2: protect you, blah blah blah. And it's only once you 1390 01:17:23,360 --> 01:17:25,960 Speaker 2: kind of become an adult that you can see like, 1391 01:17:26,200 --> 01:17:28,719 Speaker 2: oh no, this was where they fucked up, or even 1392 01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:31,960 Speaker 2: like this is where they this is this is now 1393 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:34,240 Speaker 2: the things that impacted them not understand. 1394 01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 3: It's like I see why they did what they did, 1395 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:39,840 Speaker 3: you know, I was just winding and crying, but it 1396 01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:41,160 Speaker 3: was more behind this, like. 1397 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:43,479 Speaker 2: I'm reading this. I was reading this book about poverty, 1398 01:17:43,760 --> 01:17:46,920 Speaker 2: and one of the things that's interesting is like a vast, 1399 01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:52,720 Speaker 2: a big swap of children experienced poverty as kids, but 1400 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:56,080 Speaker 2: most of us don't even fucking know it, like like 1401 01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:58,439 Speaker 2: like because your parents do so much to protect you, 1402 01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:00,559 Speaker 2: and you grow up if you know, if you haven't 1403 01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:03,040 Speaker 2: seen certain things, you don't even have a purview of 1404 01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:06,880 Speaker 2: that being normal.
