0:02:57.520 --> 0:02:59.880

0:02:59.880 --> 0:03:04.280
<v Speaker 1>read this year. Really, oh man. But it's very triggering,

0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:07.919
<v Speaker 1>very open, very triggering. Yparent you grew up a certain

0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:09.120
<v Speaker 1>way if you had to deal with a lot of

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:11.760

0:03:13.840 --> 0:03:16.760

0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:19.519

0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.920
<v Speaker 1>the NFL Draft. Do you know who the who your

0:04:47.920 --> 0:04:50.159
<v Speaker 1>team picked up? I have no idea. I was watching

0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:51.960
<v Speaker 1>basketball last night. I mean, it don't matter, you know

0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:53.280
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying, because we're going to the Super Bowl.

0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:55.000
<v Speaker 1>So as long as we picked up some offensive linemen.

0:04:55.080 --> 0:04:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Do we pick up some offensive lineen. I don't know

0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 1>who you did. As long as you did some, you know,

0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:01.440
<v Speaker 1>picked up some offensive linemen, we're gonna be fine. First

0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:04.040
<v Speaker 1>first pick went to the Jaguars. They picked up tray

0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:09.360
<v Speaker 1>Walker from Georgia. All right, now, one ticket, one person,

0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:13.160
<v Speaker 1>one four hundred and seventy three point one million dollars.

0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:16.520
<v Speaker 1>That was the powerball jackpot. And that ticket was sold

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:21.599
<v Speaker 1>in Arizona. So if you got family in Arizona, you

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:23.719
<v Speaker 1>live in Arizona, give him a call right now. The

0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:26.480
<v Speaker 1>winning numbers were eleven thirty six, sixty one, sixty two,

0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:30.359
<v Speaker 1>sixty eight and the powerball number was four. Colue to

0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:32.599
<v Speaker 1>that person, man, and I hope that Arizona has that

0:05:32.640 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 1>thing where you can remain anonymous because nobody like rich people. Okay,

0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:42.560
<v Speaker 1>it's a fact, so let's remain anonymous. Okay. Now, Health

0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.720
<v Speaker 1>in Canada, they're saying Canada lift restrictions on gay men

0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:49.000
<v Speaker 1>donating blood. That a Prime Minister of Canada said this

0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 1>is good news for all Canadians, but had taken too long.

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>They've been trying to lift the band for the last

0:05:54.480 --> 0:05:57.400
<v Speaker 1>ten to fifteen years. I've been having problems. So after research,

0:05:57.480 --> 0:06:00.960
<v Speaker 1>they said there is no difference, of course, So they

0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:03.840
<v Speaker 1>are lifting the band on a gay man. I didn't know.

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that they had a rescription on gay

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.279
<v Speaker 1>men don't ate them blood. Yeah, now, this is what

0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:12.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand. FDA announces a proposed band to band

0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 1>flavored cigarettes and blunt wraps. What is the difference between

0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:21.159
<v Speaker 1>flavored and regular? Is it? Is it worse because it's bad? Anyway?

0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:23.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't ask me because I don't smoke either. It

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:25.720
<v Speaker 1>just doesn't make sense. What are they banning them for?

0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:27.400
<v Speaker 1>What's the reason. They say, it's the combination of the

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>tobacco and like the artificial flavoring that they use that

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.159
<v Speaker 1>make it more dangerous, make it more dangerous than what

0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:36.240
<v Speaker 1>it does already. But already come a lot of stuff.

0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:40.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but they Oh, we need to lift

0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 1>the band or putting sweet stuff in your mouth. Okay,

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.720
<v Speaker 1>that's what we need to do. It's Canadas's Canada's lifting

0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:48.400
<v Speaker 1>bands on gay stuff. We need to live bands on

0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 1>gay stuff. You should be allowed to put anything sweet

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:53.000
<v Speaker 1>in your mouth that you want to, all right, And lastly,

0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 1>this is crazy. A Florida sheriff was forced to make

0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:59.719
<v Speaker 1>a heartbreak and arrest while hunting local meths suppliers his

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:03.839
<v Speaker 1>own daughter. He had to arrest his own daughter. She

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:07.440
<v Speaker 1>was a meth supplier and he had to arrest her

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:11.040
<v Speaker 1>in a stig. She was a mother of three. She

0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:13.520
<v Speaker 1>was delivering a large quantity of meth, he said. She

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:18.520
<v Speaker 1>was arrested last week for trafficking and possessing coking. That

0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:22.960
<v Speaker 1>police officer job, He said, I felt terrible about it,

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:24.760
<v Speaker 1>but I also knew that the quantity of drugs she

0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:28.120
<v Speaker 1>was selling was unbelievable and that she had to be stopped.

0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.240
<v Speaker 1>That's right. You are here to protect and to serve, sir,

0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:32.960
<v Speaker 1>and that woman is a threat to our community. They said.

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:35.640
<v Speaker 1>They said, did it feel good? He said, no, it

0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:37.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't feel good, but it had to be done. Clean

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 1>up these streets, starting with your own home. That's what

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:42.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about. You know how they say if you

0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:43.680
<v Speaker 1>want to really make a change, you gotta start in

0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:46.200
<v Speaker 1>your own home. That man is starting in his own

0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:49.480
<v Speaker 1>home dropping a clues bomb for that police office. Okay,

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>you're going to jail. Jess what because I don't know.

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:54.880
<v Speaker 1>As soon as you said, math I knew what rich

0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:57.160
<v Speaker 1>it was. Okay, as soon as you said meth I

0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:59.760
<v Speaker 1>knew the call Cassidy. In that situation, she's not gonna

0:07:59.760 --> 0:08:01.280
<v Speaker 1>give it or the heads up though, like Lott, No,

0:08:01.360 --> 0:08:03.080
<v Speaker 1>because you know why, cause you're messing up the family business.

0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:05.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, I'm a police officer. Look, okay, you got

0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:06.560
<v Speaker 1>to get out of Dodge for the next couple of days,

0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.000
<v Speaker 1>trust me. No, don't ask any questions. No, go to

0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.040
<v Speaker 1>go to Disney. No, you're going to jail because you

0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:13.880
<v Speaker 1>know what happens in a situation like that. He's jeopardizing

0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 1>not only his livelihood, he's jeopardizing his freedom. So if

0:08:16.720 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 1>they find out he was helping her in any way,

0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:20.000
<v Speaker 1>shape or for him and giving her any type of

0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:21.760
<v Speaker 1>heads up, he gonna end up going to jail. I

0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:24.800
<v Speaker 1>think he beat that of court. That's his daughter. I mean, listen, man,

0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:27.560
<v Speaker 1>White people can do a lot of different things. So

0:08:27.680 --> 0:08:29.360
<v Speaker 1>if you tell me, I think he'd beat that in court,

0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:31.920
<v Speaker 1>Sure he could with the right attorney. But I respect

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 1>the fact he did the right thing. All Right, you're

0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:38.920
<v Speaker 1>going to jail, man, all right, You're going to jail.

0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:40.679
<v Speaker 1>And always told you if you didn't that create he

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:42.559
<v Speaker 1>was gonna end up here. Okay, didn't I tell you?

0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:43.960
<v Speaker 1>If you didn't that grate you was gonna end up here.

0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Now look at you, Okay. That would be a good

0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:49.480
<v Speaker 1>conversation if he asked both breaks. Would you arrest your

0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:52.839
<v Speaker 1>daughter and send it to jail? Hey, I would give

0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:56.000
<v Speaker 1>a little heads up. It just depends. I'm not mad

0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:57.360
<v Speaker 1>at him for what he did. I don't know what

0:08:57.360 --> 0:08:58.959
<v Speaker 1>I would do. I don't know what I would personally

0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:00.560
<v Speaker 1>do in that situation, but I'm not mad at him

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>for doing his job. All right. Well, that that lets

0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:05.160

<v Speaker 1>We thought we could help a lot of couples and

0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:12.680

<v Speaker 1>Angela Yee, Charlemagne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club.

0:18:08.080 --> 0:18:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's get to the rumors. Let's talk Fifty's This is

0:18:15.560 --> 0:18:21.480
<v Speaker 1>the rumor report with Angela Yee on the Breakfast Club. Well,

0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:24.520
<v Speaker 1>when you owe fifty money, anger problem? Like what is that?

0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:27.240
<v Speaker 1>What is that? Who is that? When you owe fifty

0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:29.920
<v Speaker 1>who got an anger problem? I don't know what older

0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:32.320
<v Speaker 1>that was? Well, when you owe fifty money, you better

0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:34.959
<v Speaker 1>have his money all right now? Fifty centing his lawyers

0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:39.400
<v Speaker 1>are telling Tiara Marie, I want my money by Monday.

0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:42.080
<v Speaker 1>It were back. This has been going on for years, Yes,

0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:46.920
<v Speaker 1>for years now. This happened over you know a lawsuit

0:18:47.040 --> 0:18:50.200
<v Speaker 1>that happened where a sex tape involved Tia Marie. It

0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:52.840
<v Speaker 1>went viral. The clip was shared by fifty, and she

0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:56.080
<v Speaker 1>accused fifty of putting it out, which he said he didn't.

0:18:56.160 --> 0:18:58.520
<v Speaker 1>It was already out and attorneys In the end, the

0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:03.360
<v Speaker 1>judge awarded fifty thirty seven thousand dollars. Tierra Marie said

0:19:03.359 --> 0:19:05.680
<v Speaker 1>she ain't got it. Fifty said you said you better,

0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:07.680
<v Speaker 1>said you better find it. And they've been in court

0:19:07.760 --> 0:19:10.560
<v Speaker 1>for the last two three years for fifty yards money.

0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:12.639
<v Speaker 1>I see people saying, why it's fifty still on her

0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:15.119
<v Speaker 1>about this? If somebody owed you forty thousand dollars, wouldn't

0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:16.920
<v Speaker 1>you be on him about that too? Yes, And I

0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:18.760
<v Speaker 1>don't want to hear. Oh, fifty got money, he got

0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:20.960
<v Speaker 1>all these hit TV shows. Money is money when you

0:19:21.040 --> 0:19:23.720
<v Speaker 1>owe me, I want my bread. Yeah, I feel the

0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:26.080
<v Speaker 1>same way. And guess whether the roles of reverse you

0:19:26.119 --> 0:19:27.719
<v Speaker 1>think she wouldn't be on his head like that? Yes?

0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:32.159
<v Speaker 1>She absolutely? Okay, knock at off businesses, business, get your money. Fifth, now, Lizzo.

0:19:32.400 --> 0:19:35.960
<v Speaker 1>She talks about doing a versus but not necessarily rapping

0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:41.160
<v Speaker 1>or singing with food, random combination of food versus who

0:19:41.359 --> 0:19:48.639
<v Speaker 1>wins Lizzo versus Sweetie? Y'all just think Sweetie eats random combinations.

0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:53.160
<v Speaker 1>That's It's not that it's not that uncommon pop eating

0:19:53.240 --> 0:19:58.760
<v Speaker 1>like that. It's just don't nobody talk about it. She'll

0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:05.760
<v Speaker 1>do like, yeah, sometimes freezes it. I don't know if

0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:13.240
<v Speaker 1>you've done something right. My food combinations are disgusting. Mustard

0:20:13.280 --> 0:20:18.080
<v Speaker 1>and watermelon, we're not the same. It's unthinkable, right, I'm

0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 1>the vegan version. That's it. I've heard people talk about

0:20:21.320 --> 0:20:25.680
<v Speaker 1>mustard and watermelon before. So Lizzo Sweetie food battle, who wins?

0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know. I've never seen Lizzo get

0:20:29.840 --> 0:20:31.360
<v Speaker 1>down like that. I'm gonna have to go with Sweetie

0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 1>from what I've seen. You know, Lizzo vegan too, Like

0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:35.960
<v Speaker 1>what kind of weird combinations can you really put together

0:20:36.000 --> 0:20:40.000
<v Speaker 1>with vegan? Yeah, you know, Sweetie puts together some nasty

0:20:40.119 --> 0:20:45.760
<v Speaker 1>combinations to me, cheetos and ramen noodles. All that sounds

0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:47.159
<v Speaker 1>to me like it's the tallest gonna win, and that

0:20:47.760 --> 0:20:51.239
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna win that versus the tarlet. Okay, gonna get

0:20:51.240 --> 0:20:53.760
<v Speaker 1>the best to Lizzle and Sweetie after that verses, Yes,

0:20:53.840 --> 0:20:57.199
<v Speaker 1>it is now least. Lizzo also talks about having an

0:20:57.280 --> 0:21:01.120
<v Speaker 1>angle problem in that same interview. I had an anger problem, Like, yeah,

0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:03.639
<v Speaker 1>I really did. I had an anger problem back then,

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:09.119
<v Speaker 1>and um I would fight, you know really, yeah, I

0:21:09.200 --> 0:21:11.440
<v Speaker 1>think I had like a lot of pins up anger

0:21:11.520 --> 0:21:13.679
<v Speaker 1>in me. Because I wasn't expressing it, yeah, the right

0:21:13.760 --> 0:21:18.119
<v Speaker 1>way even through my music. I wasn't really tapped in

0:21:18.320 --> 0:21:20.399
<v Speaker 1>like I am now to where I can just like

0:21:20.640 --> 0:21:23.000
<v Speaker 1>let it flow. Because I think i'd written truth hers

0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:26.560
<v Speaker 1>in twenty seventeen. So that was like the beginning of

0:21:26.640 --> 0:21:31.160
<v Speaker 1>me even realizing, oh, music can try for me. Yeah,

0:21:31.680 --> 0:21:35.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not an out of control type fighter. I'm I'm

0:21:35.800 --> 0:21:40.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna get you cauld Yeah. Yeah, little looks like she

0:21:40.440 --> 0:21:42.560
<v Speaker 1>get down. Also, I know people will probably think just

0:21:42.640 --> 0:21:45.200
<v Speaker 1>because Lizzle was bigger, she probably would win that versus

0:21:45.280 --> 0:21:48.240
<v Speaker 1>battle with Sweedi because they probably think she's been doing

0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:50.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of wild food combinations or whole life. But

0:21:50.119 --> 0:21:52.800
<v Speaker 1>just because you, you know, I got that weight on,

0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:55.359
<v Speaker 1>you don't mean that you've been eating wild food combinations correctly,

0:21:55.359 --> 0:22:00.119
<v Speaker 1>just be eating large portions difference. I mean, yeah, I

0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:03.600
<v Speaker 1>guess now. Also, let's change against Steve Harvey. He was

0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:07.680
<v Speaker 1>on E News and they asked him about Michael B.

0:22:07.880 --> 0:22:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Jordan if he would give him relationship advice. What relationship

0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:15.320
<v Speaker 1>advice would you give to Michael B. Jordan's really none

0:22:15.760 --> 0:22:19.480
<v Speaker 1>in me? You know, I'm not you know, he's gonna

0:22:19.480 --> 0:22:23.200
<v Speaker 1>have to hurn it. I'm not gonna help so, you know,

0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:26.000
<v Speaker 1>but he's a nice guy. You know, it's very respectful.

0:22:26.080 --> 0:22:28.840
<v Speaker 1>So family is really great, a great family man. I know,

0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:31.920
<v Speaker 1>it's father person. So it's going good for them, you know.

0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Just relationships are hard, especially they young, and they're in

0:22:35.800 --> 0:22:40.200
<v Speaker 1>a Hollywood type relationship. And I'm cheering for him, you know. Yeah.

0:22:40.200 --> 0:22:43.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm not giving you no advice on how to continue

0:22:43.320 --> 0:22:45.840
<v Speaker 1>to do whatever it is you're doing my daughter. But

0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:47.639
<v Speaker 1>if he's a good guy, don't you want him to

0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:49.119
<v Speaker 1>That's all I want you to be. That's the only

0:22:49.160 --> 0:22:51.280
<v Speaker 1>advice I'm giving you. Be a good guy, be a good,

0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:54.479
<v Speaker 1>respectful human to my daughter. Can't you want to help

0:22:54.560 --> 0:22:56.800
<v Speaker 1>him out? If he's a good guy, make sure he's

0:22:56.920 --> 0:22:58.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, No, I just want him to be a

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:00.280
<v Speaker 1>good guy. Once I know he's a good guy and

0:23:00.359 --> 0:23:02.800
<v Speaker 1>he's a respectful human to my daughters. That's all I

0:23:02.880 --> 0:23:04.840
<v Speaker 1>can about. I ain't giving you no more advice other

0:23:04.880 --> 0:23:07.399
<v Speaker 1>than that. Figure it out on your own, young man, Okay,

0:23:08.000 --> 0:23:09.440
<v Speaker 1>figure it out on your own. You wouldn't want to

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 1>help the man if you like him, like, well, let

0:23:10.840 --> 0:23:12.800
<v Speaker 1>me help him as a cheat coach. Steve Harvey's done

0:23:12.880 --> 0:23:15.760
<v Speaker 1>enough of that he wrote that damn book. Okay, all right,

0:23:16.760 --> 0:23:18.919
<v Speaker 1>he's giving enough cheak cold out. I'm not giving out

0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:21.280
<v Speaker 1>no cheat cold. I want you to, you know, continue

0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:24.880
<v Speaker 1>to earn your position and my daughter's life the right way. Plus,

0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:27.119
<v Speaker 1>you know, she got to make all those choices on

0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:30.200
<v Speaker 1>her own regardless. Wuldn't you wouldn't you rather your daughter?

0:23:30.400 --> 0:23:32.280
<v Speaker 1>You got four of them? I God for him. Wouldn't

0:23:32.280 --> 0:23:34.920
<v Speaker 1>you rather your daughter know the real person as opposed

0:23:34.960 --> 0:23:38.239
<v Speaker 1>to you know, me giving him a little cheek cold here?

0:23:38.240 --> 0:23:39.600
<v Speaker 1>And oh you know she likes this, you know she

0:23:39.720 --> 0:23:41.280
<v Speaker 1>likes that. Hey, you should do this, you should do that.

0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Wouldn't you rather him him be himself? And she grow

0:23:45.560 --> 0:23:48.520
<v Speaker 1>to love that person on their own, not because of

0:23:48.560 --> 0:23:50.399
<v Speaker 1>the cheek coach put it like that. Then yeah, I'm

0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:53.280
<v Speaker 1>not giving him no cheat coach. Yeah, well Stevey. He

0:23:53.400 --> 0:23:56.960
<v Speaker 1>also talks about his stylish weights. How does it feel

0:23:57.040 --> 0:23:59.560
<v Speaker 1>to have so much drip? Trying to tell you something?

0:23:59.680 --> 0:24:03.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm had it my whole life, even when I was

0:24:03.600 --> 0:24:06.280
<v Speaker 1>wearing the big suit, you know, and that was really urban, man,

0:24:06.480 --> 0:24:08.879
<v Speaker 1>that's what we wore. No talks talking to Magic and

0:24:08.960 --> 0:24:11.320
<v Speaker 1>Michael Jordan. One time they said, man, we should watch

0:24:11.400 --> 0:24:13.800
<v Speaker 1>you at night on showtime a depolo and see what

0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:16.080
<v Speaker 1>you was gonna wear and we go out and getting made.

0:24:16.359 --> 0:24:18.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, I always love colors, man, you know when

0:24:18.600 --> 0:24:20.720
<v Speaker 1>you're a game show host and the talk show host.

0:24:20.840 --> 0:24:23.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, I tried to dress more, you know, more mainstream.

0:24:23.880 --> 0:24:25.719
<v Speaker 1>It's not a lie. You see Michael Jordan's close back

0:24:25.720 --> 0:24:29.159
<v Speaker 1>in the day, they looked they are right. They all

0:24:29.200 --> 0:24:31.359
<v Speaker 1>had on drive fit, baggy ass suits and that was

0:24:31.480 --> 0:24:33.680
<v Speaker 1>the style. They just didn't know when to stop the stole,

0:24:33.960 --> 0:24:35.399
<v Speaker 1>like you know what I mean, like they got it.

0:24:35.520 --> 0:24:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Got a time when you gotta stop. Steve be clean though,

0:24:38.440 --> 0:24:42.080
<v Speaker 1>and Steve outfits be like Sweeti's food combinations. I saw Steve.

0:24:42.560 --> 0:24:47.720
<v Speaker 1>Steve had on a leather suit really like a leather

0:24:48.640 --> 0:24:54.840
<v Speaker 1>church suit. Yeah, Steve ain't Steve Man, don't un be

0:24:54.880 --> 0:24:57.040
<v Speaker 1>putting it on, you know, having everything. Man, he ain't

0:24:57.040 --> 0:24:59.240
<v Speaker 1>playing a game, not at all when he's the og

0:24:59.359 --> 0:25:01.600
<v Speaker 1>and the legend right, And that is your rumor report.

0:25:01.680 --> 0:25:03.200
<v Speaker 1>Now when we come back, we got to talk your

<v Speaker 1>for him, but you know I mean by the way.

0:25:14.080 --> 0:25:16.359
<v Speaker 1>your president too, regards right, whether you want to admit

0:25:16.400 --> 0:25:17.880
<v Speaker 1>it or not. I'm still trying to figure out whose

0:25:17.880 --> 0:25:20.160
<v Speaker 1>hand he was trying to shake it. That's what I'm

0:25:20.160 --> 0:25:21.680
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure out. Who's hand he was trying to shake.

0:25:21.760 --> 0:25:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Somebody tell me that that's my president. Whoever's hand he

0:25:24.119 --> 0:25:26.920
<v Speaker 1>was shaking, that's that's my president. We'll talk about it

0:25:36.680 --> 0:25:39.600

0:25:51.160 --> 0:25:54.399
<v Speaker 1>dj Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, the guy we are to

0:25:54.440 --> 0:25:59.359
<v Speaker 1>Breakfast club's getting some front page news. Let's talk your president,

0:26:00.000 --> 0:26:02.520
<v Speaker 1>President Joe Biden. Now, Joe Biden says he is not

0:26:02.920 --> 0:26:07.120
<v Speaker 1>considering fifty thousand dollars in student loan forgiveness, he says,

0:26:07.160 --> 0:26:08.960
<v Speaker 1>but I'm in the process of taking a hard look

0:26:09.000 --> 0:26:11.959
<v Speaker 1>at whether or not there will be additional debt forgiveness.

0:26:12.000 --> 0:26:15.520
<v Speaker 1>So now I like this because you're gonna tell another story.

0:26:15.560 --> 0:26:17.720
<v Speaker 1>That's a minute that connects all of these dots. Okay,

0:26:18.359 --> 0:26:21.119
<v Speaker 1>the campaign promise was they was gonna get rid of

0:26:21.280 --> 0:26:23.560
<v Speaker 1>a student loan, that it was gonna give everybody that

0:26:23.640 --> 0:26:25.960
<v Speaker 1>was in student loanedb like, what ten thousand dollars a piece.

0:26:26.000 --> 0:26:27.920
<v Speaker 1>I think it was correct. Okay, but now they're not

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:30.440
<v Speaker 1>talking about that at all. Now they're not talking about that.

0:26:30.560 --> 0:26:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Now watch this. Watch this. He's not going to take

0:26:32.280 --> 0:26:35.399
<v Speaker 1>you fifty thou. But now your President, Joe Biden is

0:26:35.440 --> 0:26:40.560
<v Speaker 1>asking Congress for thirty three billion dollars in Ukraine. Aid

0:26:40.880 --> 0:26:43.359
<v Speaker 1>more money for Ukraine. That's right, we have audio. We

0:26:43.440 --> 0:26:46.560
<v Speaker 1>have almost exhausted what we call the fancy phrase to

0:26:46.720 --> 0:26:50.920
<v Speaker 1>draw down authority. The Congress authorized Ukraine and a bi

0:26:51.040 --> 0:26:54.360
<v Speaker 1>partisan spending bill last month. Basically, we're out of money.

0:26:55.080 --> 0:26:59.120
<v Speaker 1>And so that's why today, in order to sustain Ukraine

0:26:59.160 --> 0:27:02.360
<v Speaker 1>as a as a continues to fight, I'm sending Congress

0:27:02.400 --> 0:27:06.639
<v Speaker 1>a supplemental budget request. It's gonna keep weapons and ammunition

0:27:06.720 --> 0:27:11.000
<v Speaker 1>flowing without interruption to the brave Ukrainian fighters and continue

0:27:11.040 --> 0:27:14.160
<v Speaker 1>delivering economic humound of turning assistance to the Ukrainian people.

0:27:15.400 --> 0:27:18.040
<v Speaker 1>They're asking for more and more money for Ukraine, billions

0:27:18.080 --> 0:27:20.000
<v Speaker 1>and billions of dollars. But when it comes to something

0:27:20.080 --> 0:27:22.120
<v Speaker 1>like student loan that in this country, they are taking

0:27:22.200 --> 0:27:25.840
<v Speaker 1>a hard look at it, not promising nothing, even though

0:27:25.880 --> 0:27:27.959
<v Speaker 1>they promised on the campaign trail. They're just gonna take

0:27:28.000 --> 0:27:30.439
<v Speaker 1>a hard look at student loan that now. But they

0:27:30.440 --> 0:27:33.040
<v Speaker 1>ain't got no problem asking for money for a whole

0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:37.440
<v Speaker 1>other country, thirty three billion dollars man on top on

0:27:37.560 --> 0:27:39.320
<v Speaker 1>top of what they've already given them. Let me just

0:27:39.359 --> 0:27:41.040
<v Speaker 1>ask your questions. He just said they ain't got no more,

0:27:41.119 --> 0:27:42.760
<v Speaker 1>but he already always said they ain't got no more

0:27:42.800 --> 0:27:44.960
<v Speaker 1>money until they need more money. I'm just I'm just

0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:47.600
<v Speaker 1>asking the question if if we started an airstrike with

0:27:47.800 --> 0:27:50.159
<v Speaker 1>with let's just say, with with Putin, just to go

0:27:50.240 --> 0:27:52.600
<v Speaker 1>get Putin, how much with that cost? I don't ask me.

0:27:53.040 --> 0:27:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Are you gonna ask me some type of questions like

0:27:54.680 --> 0:27:56.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm some geopolitical expert that I know how much the

0:27:57.520 --> 0:27:59.680
<v Speaker 1>airstrike costs on Putin? I don't know it would be

0:27:59.760 --> 0:28:01.640
<v Speaker 1>less than thirty three million. I'm so much. Man asked

0:28:01.640 --> 0:28:02.920
<v Speaker 1>me things that I know, asked me how much the

0:28:03.040 --> 0:28:06.520
<v Speaker 1>number two is at McDonald's. How much is the number two?

0:28:06.880 --> 0:28:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Back in the day it used to be with tax

0:28:10.920 --> 0:28:13.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty four attacks, It's way way back in the day.

0:28:14.720 --> 0:28:16.119
<v Speaker 1>Now we have more, you know, we're born in the

0:28:16.200 --> 0:28:22.240
<v Speaker 1>nineteen hundred. That button about button byten. Also Biden also

0:28:22.600 --> 0:28:26.320
<v Speaker 1>as asked for additional funding. This assistance would provide even

0:28:26.480 --> 0:28:31.600
<v Speaker 1>more artillery, armored vehicles, anti armored systems, anti air capabilities

0:28:32.160 --> 0:28:34.440
<v Speaker 1>that have been used so effectively thus far in the

0:28:34.520 --> 0:28:37.639
<v Speaker 1>battlefield by the Ukrainian warriors, you know. And it's going

0:28:37.720 --> 0:28:43.000
<v Speaker 1>to deliver much need of humanitarian assistants as well as food, water, medicine, shelter,

0:28:43.400 --> 0:28:47.440
<v Speaker 1>another aid to Ukrainians displaced by Russian's war and provide

0:28:47.520 --> 0:28:51.560
<v Speaker 1>aid for those seeking refuge in other countries from Ukraine.

0:28:51.760 --> 0:28:54.440
<v Speaker 1>It's also going to help schools and hospitals open. It's

0:28:54.480 --> 0:28:56.840
<v Speaker 1>going to allow pensions and social support to be paid

0:28:56.880 --> 0:28:59.560
<v Speaker 1>to the Ukrainian people so they have something something in

0:28:59.600 --> 0:29:03.360
<v Speaker 1>their pot. Don't disrespect to anybody overseas, but I feel

0:29:03.400 --> 0:29:06.880
<v Speaker 1>like we're helping all these issues that other people have,

0:29:07.000 --> 0:29:08.920
<v Speaker 1>but we have these same issues here, right. We always

0:29:08.920 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 1>talk about schools here are not funded enough, they don't

0:29:11.120 --> 0:29:13.440
<v Speaker 1>have computers, they don't have books, a lot of kittles

0:29:13.480 --> 0:29:18.800
<v Speaker 1>going up not up to par. Or military our retired

0:29:18.920 --> 0:29:21.560
<v Speaker 1>vets are don't have the service and treatment that they need,

0:29:21.920 --> 0:29:24.520
<v Speaker 1>but we're quick to ask for thirty three billion dollars.

0:29:24.800 --> 0:29:27.080
<v Speaker 1>That just sounds wild. Yeah, And when you hear things

0:29:27.120 --> 0:29:29.160
<v Speaker 1>like this, um, you know, I hate to say it,

0:29:29.240 --> 0:29:31.000
<v Speaker 1>but you know, you have to agree with with with

0:29:31.160 --> 0:29:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump, right because Trump repeatedly said the US provides

0:29:34.360 --> 0:29:37.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, too much cash for for for for natal

0:29:38.160 --> 0:29:41.960
<v Speaker 1>and things like that, spending big on maintaining military defense

0:29:42.000 --> 0:29:44.760
<v Speaker 1>systems across Europe, and he wanted Europe to pay their

0:29:44.800 --> 0:29:47.600
<v Speaker 1>FASH share instead of US paying all of that damn money.

0:29:47.840 --> 0:29:51.120
<v Speaker 1>So I have to agree with him on that. And lastly,

0:29:51.240 --> 0:29:53.680
<v Speaker 1>something that I was excited about. Google said now that

0:29:53.760 --> 0:29:56.840
<v Speaker 1>it's created a firm that users can submit to take

0:29:56.920 --> 0:29:59.480
<v Speaker 1>things off of Google, Like if you have private information

0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:03.720
<v Speaker 1>on Google, whether it's home address, logging, credentials, personal images,

0:30:03.960 --> 0:30:08.160
<v Speaker 1>or anything, any documents that can hurt you, phone numbers, addresses,

0:30:08.200 --> 0:30:12.520
<v Speaker 1>anything like that, Google may remove your personal information, which

0:30:12.600 --> 0:30:14.760
<v Speaker 1>is pretty good. It's too late night. They already got us. Yeah,

0:30:14.800 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 1>that is true too, but for now one and they're

0:30:16.800 --> 0:30:18.360
<v Speaker 1>saying that they will have a form that they can

0:30:18.440 --> 0:30:21.719
<v Speaker 1>take all that information off. But they said, Google say

0:30:21.760 --> 0:30:24.400
<v Speaker 1>they will automatically remove the results and that there must

0:30:24.480 --> 0:30:27.640
<v Speaker 1>be a threat of abuse for the request to be considered.

0:30:28.400 --> 0:30:30.720
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, I think that's a good thing about time.

0:30:30.880 --> 0:30:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Now listen, man, everybody straighten up. Okay, Yes, there's there's

0:30:35.760 --> 0:30:38.720
<v Speaker 1>a queen and is about to enter this room. Legend. Okay.

0:31:31.160 --> 0:31:34.840
<v Speaker 1>just so exciting show on the schedule of Viola Davis

0:31:35.000 --> 0:31:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Finding Me. Yes man, man, this book is such a

0:31:38.440 --> 0:31:41.680
<v Speaker 1>beautiful exploration of your your inner child. Like when you

0:31:41.720 --> 0:31:43.760
<v Speaker 1>started the journey of writing this book, did you know

0:31:43.880 --> 0:31:45.760
<v Speaker 1>you would go on that journey with your inner child

0:31:45.800 --> 0:31:48.520
<v Speaker 1>as well? Yeah? That was the whole point that I

0:31:48.640 --> 0:31:52.640
<v Speaker 1>needed to find that inner child. And my inner child

0:31:53.000 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 1>was one that needed both healing and needed to be celebrated.

0:31:58.080 --> 0:32:01.560
<v Speaker 1>She was a survivor as well as someone who you know,

0:32:01.760 --> 0:32:03.920
<v Speaker 1>held a lot of trauma. But I felt like I

0:32:04.040 --> 0:32:06.120
<v Speaker 1>had to explore it because we were at that period

0:32:06.160 --> 0:32:09.160
<v Speaker 1>of time. I wrote it during the pandemic, you know,

0:32:09.280 --> 0:32:12.000
<v Speaker 1>the George Floyd of it all, the almand Aubrey, Brionna

0:32:12.040 --> 0:32:15.520
<v Speaker 1>Taylor of it all, everything dealing with the COVID, with

0:32:15.640 --> 0:32:18.320
<v Speaker 1>the election. I felt like I was having a crisis

0:32:18.400 --> 0:32:23.040
<v Speaker 1>of meaning, and it was my way of pressing the

0:32:23.160 --> 0:32:28.440
<v Speaker 1>reset button just to understand, man, Viola, what are you

0:32:28.520 --> 0:32:30.880
<v Speaker 1>supposed to do from here on out? It just was

0:32:30.960 --> 0:32:35.480
<v Speaker 1>a big wake up call personally and you know, culturally.

0:32:35.760 --> 0:32:38.040
<v Speaker 1>So that's why I wrote the book. I had to

0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:40.640
<v Speaker 1>go back to the beginning of me. When you start

0:32:40.720 --> 0:32:43.040
<v Speaker 1>during a pandemic, or this was something you were doing beforehand,

0:32:43.120 --> 0:32:44.760
<v Speaker 1>and you were just so many projects. He was like,

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:47.280
<v Speaker 1>I'll get to it though this was pandemic. This is

0:32:47.320 --> 0:32:51.200
<v Speaker 1>what I want to do. Well. I didn't want to

0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:54.720
<v Speaker 1>do nothing during the pandemic, but I did start during

0:32:54.760 --> 0:32:57.120
<v Speaker 1>the pandemic. I had just finished How to Get Away

0:32:57.160 --> 0:33:01.080
<v Speaker 1>with Murder. I literally just ended it that March, and

0:33:01.280 --> 0:33:04.280
<v Speaker 1>then I started writing the book. It was something to

0:33:04.400 --> 0:33:08.320
<v Speaker 1>do because otherwise I was going stir crazy. I wasn't

0:33:08.400 --> 0:33:12.720
<v Speaker 1>the person who settled into the pandemic. I felt everything

0:33:12.800 --> 0:33:15.240
<v Speaker 1>that was going on around me, and I felt the

0:33:15.400 --> 0:33:20.400
<v Speaker 1>chaos of it, and I internalized it. So this book

0:33:20.600 --> 0:33:23.440
<v Speaker 1>was great therapy. So when God made you sit still

0:33:23.480 --> 0:33:25.760
<v Speaker 1>in you know, during the pandemic, what did you see

0:33:25.760 --> 0:33:28.520
<v Speaker 1>about yourself that you hadn't saw in a while. I

0:33:28.640 --> 0:33:31.920
<v Speaker 1>saw a lot of things. I saw Viola as a survivor.

0:33:33.120 --> 0:33:37.720
<v Speaker 1>I saw, you know, I keep telling this story ad nauseum.

0:33:37.920 --> 0:33:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I know I've told it a lot, but I've always

0:33:41.640 --> 0:33:44.880
<v Speaker 1>said you got to leave a legacy, right, So I said,

0:33:45.000 --> 0:33:47.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's life. It's like a relay race. It's

0:33:47.920 --> 0:33:49.880
<v Speaker 1>what you do with your dash of time. And what

0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:53.520
<v Speaker 1>great runner you pass that baton, you know, off to,

0:33:53.720 --> 0:33:56.400
<v Speaker 1>You pass it on to the next generation. They pass

0:33:56.480 --> 0:33:59.080
<v Speaker 1>it on to the person you know who's after them

0:33:59.160 --> 0:34:02.040
<v Speaker 1>and after them. And I realized during the writing of

0:34:02.120 --> 0:34:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the book, is those great runners are you at a

0:34:05.560 --> 0:34:09.759
<v Speaker 1>different age? The six year old who survives it then,

0:34:10.280 --> 0:34:14.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, may survive it really messy may have been inappropriate,

0:34:14.680 --> 0:34:17.040
<v Speaker 1>but she ran her leg of the race and passed

0:34:17.040 --> 0:34:19.879
<v Speaker 1>the baton onto the fourteen year old Viola, who said,

0:34:19.920 --> 0:34:21.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to be an actor. In the midst of

0:34:22.040 --> 0:34:26.160
<v Speaker 1>all the poverty, the abuse, the bed wedding, the sexual

0:34:26.200 --> 0:34:29.239
<v Speaker 1>all of that, she wanted to be an actor. She

0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:32.080
<v Speaker 1>saw a way out and fourteen year old pass it

0:34:32.160 --> 0:34:33.880
<v Speaker 1>on to the twenty eight year old who said, you

0:34:33.960 --> 0:34:37.960
<v Speaker 1>know what, I need therapy because I want healthy relationships

0:34:38.000 --> 0:34:40.080
<v Speaker 1>in my life. I want to be happier, and I

0:34:40.120 --> 0:34:42.239
<v Speaker 1>don't know how to do that, and she passed it

0:34:42.320 --> 0:34:44.120
<v Speaker 1>on to the thirty four year old Viola, who got

0:34:44.200 --> 0:34:47.560
<v Speaker 1>married to the fort forty five year old Viola who

0:34:47.640 --> 0:34:50.640
<v Speaker 1>then became a mom. And then now I'm fifty six

0:34:51.280 --> 0:34:54.040
<v Speaker 1>and I have the baton in my hand, and now

0:34:54.160 --> 0:34:56.800
<v Speaker 1>what you know, what am I supposed to do with

0:34:56.960 --> 0:35:00.960
<v Speaker 1>this part of my life? Because I would say, at

0:35:01.000 --> 0:35:07.120
<v Speaker 1>fifty six, you're a little bit past midlife. So that's

0:35:07.160 --> 0:35:11.239
<v Speaker 1>what I learned. It's like it's a constant reassessment of

0:35:12.000 --> 0:35:13.759
<v Speaker 1>where do you want to be, what do your life,

0:35:13.960 --> 0:35:15.759
<v Speaker 1>what do you want your life to sort of look like?

0:35:16.600 --> 0:35:19.560
<v Speaker 1>And I keep coming back to this because I know

0:35:20.040 --> 0:35:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I know that, I know that, I know that the

0:35:23.520 --> 0:35:27.840
<v Speaker 1>number one regret of the dying is they didn't take risks,

0:35:29.400 --> 0:35:32.720
<v Speaker 1>they didn't become their ideal self. I don't want anyone

0:35:32.760 --> 0:35:35.279
<v Speaker 1>to think that I wasn't brave. And I think that

0:35:35.440 --> 0:35:40.640
<v Speaker 1>sometimes people hold off braveness and courage because they don't

0:35:40.680 --> 0:35:43.680
<v Speaker 1>want to risk failure and they don't want to risk shame.

0:35:44.280 --> 0:35:47.959
<v Speaker 1>And I think you got to risk it. And that's

0:35:48.000 --> 0:35:50.359
<v Speaker 1>been my biggest discovery in writing the book. You're say

0:35:50.400 --> 0:35:54.520
<v Speaker 1>in the book that memories are powerful, right, Some people

0:35:54.600 --> 0:35:57.560
<v Speaker 1>like to beget memories because it's so painful. It's so hurtful,

0:35:57.840 --> 0:35:59.680
<v Speaker 1>but it seems like you use it as inspiration to

0:35:59.760 --> 0:36:05.279
<v Speaker 1>push yourself. Why is that. I think the pain the

0:36:05.480 --> 0:36:08.560
<v Speaker 1>trauma is equal to the joy and the peace in

0:36:08.680 --> 0:36:11.799
<v Speaker 1>your life. I think that they're one and the same.

0:36:12.440 --> 0:36:15.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that the pain and the trauma and

0:36:15.360 --> 0:36:18.399
<v Speaker 1>the hard times are a detour from life. I think

0:36:18.440 --> 0:36:21.040
<v Speaker 1>it's a part of life. And I think that when

0:36:21.160 --> 0:36:25.120
<v Speaker 1>you refuse to lean in to all of it is,

0:36:25.280 --> 0:36:28.680
<v Speaker 1>you refuse to become connected to yourself. And that's why

0:36:28.840 --> 0:36:32.680
<v Speaker 1>no one can connect with anyone else, because the only

0:36:32.760 --> 0:36:35.080
<v Speaker 1>time we want to meet is with great stories of

0:36:35.280 --> 0:36:38.759
<v Speaker 1>overcoming and winning. And then when someone feels like they

0:36:38.840 --> 0:36:41.320
<v Speaker 1>are not overcoming and they're not winning, and they're not

0:36:41.480 --> 0:36:44.040
<v Speaker 1>waking up happy every day, then they feel like they

0:36:44.120 --> 0:36:46.400
<v Speaker 1>need to hide in the closet, not come out, not

0:36:46.640 --> 0:36:49.000
<v Speaker 1>open their mouths, not saying anything. There's no one to

0:36:49.120 --> 0:36:53.040
<v Speaker 1>share with, there's no sacred space to be you. I

0:36:53.640 --> 0:36:56.759
<v Speaker 1>count it all joy. Now, when I say I count

0:36:56.800 --> 0:37:01.880
<v Speaker 1>it all joy, it takes some time. I'm sometimes account

0:37:01.920 --> 0:37:04.640
<v Speaker 1>it all joy, But I do believe that it's all

0:37:04.680 --> 0:37:07.440
<v Speaker 1>a part of life. I've been in too many spaces

0:37:07.520 --> 0:37:09.880
<v Speaker 1>where I haven't been able to connect with people. You

0:37:10.000 --> 0:37:12.239
<v Speaker 1>just never know what people have gone through to get

0:37:12.280 --> 0:37:15.200
<v Speaker 1>to where they are today, which is why memoir like this,

0:37:15.320 --> 0:37:18.719
<v Speaker 1>where you were so open and honest about everything, it

0:37:18.840 --> 0:37:21.759
<v Speaker 1>really helped us to see like where you come from

0:37:21.800 --> 0:37:23.879
<v Speaker 1>when you're acting. And I wanted to ask you about

0:37:23.920 --> 0:37:27.440
<v Speaker 1>your relationship with your parents because in this book you

0:37:27.560 --> 0:37:29.839
<v Speaker 1>talk a lot about things that happened to you when

0:37:29.880 --> 0:37:32.520
<v Speaker 1>you were a child. What did you realize while writing

0:37:32.560 --> 0:37:34.960
<v Speaker 1>this book about like your father and about your mother.

0:37:35.800 --> 0:37:38.320
<v Speaker 1>I realized they did the best they could with what

0:37:38.600 --> 0:37:41.600
<v Speaker 1>they had. That's what I realized. Because it's so hard

0:37:41.640 --> 0:37:44.879
<v Speaker 1>to forgive your dad. I know, you know you talk

0:37:44.920 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 1>about how abusive he was to your mother and things

0:37:47.120 --> 0:37:50.200
<v Speaker 1>that you had to witness. So was it hard for

0:37:50.320 --> 0:37:55.120
<v Speaker 1>you to even forgive that? Yeah, forgiveness is to me.

0:37:55.560 --> 0:37:59.560
<v Speaker 1>I feel like forgiveness and faith are equal in terms

0:37:59.600 --> 0:38:06.400
<v Speaker 1>of they're the hardest things to achieve. It's they're so abstract,

0:38:07.120 --> 0:38:10.440
<v Speaker 1>So it comes down to choice. I forgive for myself.

0:38:11.160 --> 0:38:13.120
<v Speaker 1>I forgive because I don't want to carry that weight,

0:38:13.960 --> 0:38:17.320
<v Speaker 1>the weight, the vengefulness of regret and all of that

0:38:18.000 --> 0:38:21.680
<v Speaker 1>for me, it blocks everything from coming into your life.

0:38:22.320 --> 0:38:24.680
<v Speaker 1>And I don't think that anyone wants to see a

0:38:24.800 --> 0:38:28.240
<v Speaker 1>sixty year old or here is sixty year old sitting

0:38:28.320 --> 0:38:32.920
<v Speaker 1>in run their therapists saying, I, you know, haven't been

0:38:32.920 --> 0:38:35.040
<v Speaker 1>able to make my marriage work or this work in

0:38:35.120 --> 0:38:37.399
<v Speaker 1>my life because what my dad did when I was five.

0:38:38.480 --> 0:38:42.200
<v Speaker 1>At some point your life becomes yours as well. That

0:38:42.320 --> 0:38:44.719
<v Speaker 1>you said that because my wife was up here the

0:38:44.800 --> 0:38:46.880
<v Speaker 1>other day and she was like, you know, when she forgave,

0:38:46.960 --> 0:38:48.960
<v Speaker 1>she be gave for herself. And I didn't understand it

0:38:49.040 --> 0:38:51.799
<v Speaker 1>at first because most people think when you forgive, your

0:38:52.280 --> 0:38:55.160
<v Speaker 1>forgiving the person that hurts you. But it's actually to

0:38:55.440 --> 0:38:58.080
<v Speaker 1>to not to take away that pain from yourself so

0:38:58.160 --> 0:38:59.680
<v Speaker 1>you don't have to deal with it anymore. That is

0:38:59.719 --> 0:39:02.399
<v Speaker 1>that you say when you say I forgive for myself, Well, yeah,

0:39:02.440 --> 0:39:04.959
<v Speaker 1>that's part of it. I do believe it's a sort

0:39:04.960 --> 0:39:09.440
<v Speaker 1>of prison, and not to get to philosophical of course,

0:39:09.840 --> 0:39:12.480
<v Speaker 1>but I believe that when you get to the end

0:39:12.520 --> 0:39:14.719
<v Speaker 1>of your life, you're not thinking about all the people

0:39:14.840 --> 0:39:17.839
<v Speaker 1>that you hated and all the people that did you wrong.

0:39:18.239 --> 0:39:20.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that you're thinking about that when you're

0:39:20.400 --> 0:39:23.600
<v Speaker 1>taking your last breath. I just don't. I think all

0:39:23.640 --> 0:39:26.600
<v Speaker 1>of that goes away, and I think everything comes into

0:39:26.680 --> 0:39:31.880
<v Speaker 1>sharp focus, which is probably making amends, probably being with

0:39:32.000 --> 0:39:35.920
<v Speaker 1>the people that you love, probably sewing everything up, probably

0:39:36.040 --> 0:39:39.000
<v Speaker 1>holding someone's hands. But I don't think that we're thinking

0:39:39.080 --> 0:39:42.360
<v Speaker 1>about all of that. I think that once again, the

0:39:42.600 --> 0:39:46.839
<v Speaker 1>only person you could say is yourself. That's the only

0:39:46.960 --> 0:39:50.040
<v Speaker 1>thing that you could do. You can't keep backtracking as

0:39:50.360 --> 0:39:53.200
<v Speaker 1>what wrong someone did to you or whatever. You got

0:39:53.280 --> 0:39:56.680
<v Speaker 1>to figure out how to heal that. It's like, you

0:39:56.920 --> 0:39:59.879
<v Speaker 1>don't you haven't met all the people who are going

0:40:00.080 --> 0:40:03.160
<v Speaker 1>to love you in your life yet, and so when

0:40:03.200 --> 0:40:05.560
<v Speaker 1>you meet all these people who are gonna love you,

0:40:06.040 --> 0:40:09.720
<v Speaker 1>they do not want to meet a vengeful person, okay,

0:40:10.080 --> 0:40:13.920
<v Speaker 1>because they're gonna get the overflow of that vengefulness. As

0:40:13.920 --> 0:40:15.440
<v Speaker 1>a matter of fact, they're not going to get the

0:40:15.560 --> 0:40:19.279
<v Speaker 1>overflow of that vengefulness. They're gonna get nothing. They're gonna

0:40:19.320 --> 0:40:22.640
<v Speaker 1>go so far with you and then it's gonna stop.

0:40:23.160 --> 0:40:28.120
<v Speaker 1>I've been with those people. They're called emotionally unavailable. We

0:40:28.200 --> 0:40:30.680
<v Speaker 1>are well with Viola Davis. When we come back, don't move.

0:40:30.719 --> 0:40:34.480
<v Speaker 1>It's to breakfast Club, Good morning morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,

0:40:34.760 --> 0:40:37.719
<v Speaker 1>Angela Yee Charlomagne, the guy we are to Breakfast Club.

0:40:37.719 --> 0:40:40.839
<v Speaker 1>We're still kicking it with Viola Davis Charlomagne. I love

0:40:40.920 --> 0:40:44.359
<v Speaker 1>how you held your father accountable but also humanize them.

0:40:44.400 --> 0:40:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Did you always see the humanity in him or was

0:40:46.320 --> 0:40:48.440
<v Speaker 1>that something that happens as you got oh do it,

0:40:48.880 --> 0:40:51.560
<v Speaker 1>you know with the more work you did on yourself. Absolutely,

0:40:51.760 --> 0:40:53.920
<v Speaker 1>more work I did it on myself. The more I

0:40:54.040 --> 0:40:56.920
<v Speaker 1>saw his humanity, the more I could connect the dots.

0:40:57.400 --> 0:41:00.000
<v Speaker 1>You know. I thought life was like a Disney movie.

0:41:00.800 --> 0:41:04.600
<v Speaker 1>People were just good or bad. That's it. The evil

0:41:04.719 --> 0:41:07.960
<v Speaker 1>villain who just comes out just wants to destroy everyone.

0:41:08.400 --> 0:41:12.560
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know that people acted because of specific memories

0:41:12.680 --> 0:41:16.680
<v Speaker 1>once again, trauma in their lives. The people, and we

0:41:16.880 --> 0:41:21.880
<v Speaker 1>really demonize black people, you know, and very way. You

0:41:21.880 --> 0:41:24.040
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't even be doing what you're doing if all those

0:41:24.120 --> 0:41:27.360
<v Speaker 1>things hadn't happened to you as a child. Absolutely, because

0:41:27.360 --> 0:41:29.080
<v Speaker 1>it was such an escape for you to be able

0:41:29.120 --> 0:41:31.320
<v Speaker 1>to turn on the TV. You said it was Cicely

0:41:31.400 --> 0:41:34.359
<v Speaker 1>Tyson right that you saw that made you even say

0:41:34.440 --> 0:41:38.320
<v Speaker 1>this is what I want to do. Absolutely, that woman

0:41:38.480 --> 0:41:43.440
<v Speaker 1>and that performance was everything. I remember the moment I

0:41:43.600 --> 0:41:47.320
<v Speaker 1>saw that performance because it was like magic. It was

0:41:47.400 --> 0:41:50.520
<v Speaker 1>like it was a magician pulling a rabbit out of

0:41:50.640 --> 0:41:53.960
<v Speaker 1>the hat. If you've ever seen the performance, she aged

0:41:54.080 --> 0:41:57.080
<v Speaker 1>from eighteen to one hundred and ten, and you could

0:41:57.120 --> 0:42:00.239
<v Speaker 1>not even believe it. From the first frame of that

0:42:00.400 --> 0:42:04.560
<v Speaker 1>it was a mini series. And literally the wind stopped blowing,

0:42:05.440 --> 0:42:10.040
<v Speaker 1>the sun came out, and I saw a portal way

0:42:10.120 --> 0:42:15.560
<v Speaker 1>out of the poverty, the trauma. I just felt like,

0:42:15.680 --> 0:42:17.560
<v Speaker 1>if I could do that, I could make a life.

0:42:18.120 --> 0:42:20.719
<v Speaker 1>I think sometimes you gotta see it, you know, And

0:42:20.840 --> 0:42:24.359
<v Speaker 1>I know everybody just puts faith on people, especially on us,

0:42:24.880 --> 0:42:28.680
<v Speaker 1>especially on black folks. I know that's all we had.

0:42:28.840 --> 0:42:31.320
<v Speaker 1>And and but it's a lot. You know. You go

0:42:31.480 --> 0:42:33.840
<v Speaker 1>up to young black kids who were coming from really

0:42:34.000 --> 0:42:37.160
<v Speaker 1>challenging backgrounds, and people come up to them and say,

0:42:37.239 --> 0:42:39.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, you could be what who and what you

0:42:40.120 --> 0:42:42.239
<v Speaker 1>want to be. You just have to dream big. And

0:42:42.239 --> 0:42:44.399
<v Speaker 1>then once you make it, you come back, you bring

0:42:44.480 --> 0:42:47.319
<v Speaker 1>your family up, you bring your community up. And I'm

0:42:47.400 --> 0:42:50.879
<v Speaker 1>sure if that kid had a language, he would say,

0:42:51.280 --> 0:42:55.160
<v Speaker 1>how that's a lot you just throw and then you

0:42:55.239 --> 0:42:57.759
<v Speaker 1>gotta work ten times as hard. You throw all of

0:42:57.840 --> 0:43:00.680
<v Speaker 1>that on their lap, and then at fifty. If they

0:43:00.800 --> 0:43:04.359
<v Speaker 1>can't even get if if they can't achieve it at all,

0:43:04.520 --> 0:43:06.680
<v Speaker 1>or they feel like they want to give up, then

0:43:06.800 --> 0:43:09.719
<v Speaker 1>we just brate them. It's a lot that we put

0:43:09.800 --> 0:43:12.759
<v Speaker 1>on them. So sometimes you gotta see it, you gotta

0:43:12.840 --> 0:43:15.680
<v Speaker 1>hold it, you gotta somebody's got to throw you a rope,

0:43:15.920 --> 0:43:18.840
<v Speaker 1>they do. Honestly, What was you talk about, sicily, But

0:43:18.960 --> 0:43:21.560
<v Speaker 1>what was some of your positive influences? Because you know,

0:43:21.640 --> 0:43:23.920
<v Speaker 1>you talk about, you know, your parents and how you

0:43:23.960 --> 0:43:25.680
<v Speaker 1>looked at your dad, and you talked about, you know,

0:43:25.760 --> 0:43:27.600
<v Speaker 1>going to the white school and the white kids chasing

0:43:27.640 --> 0:43:29.920
<v Speaker 1>me all the bricks, and you talk about all those things.

0:43:29.960 --> 0:43:32.560
<v Speaker 1>So what positive influence did you have? What was your

0:43:32.640 --> 0:43:35.600
<v Speaker 1>safe haven as a kid? If there wasn't there was

0:43:35.800 --> 0:43:39.800
<v Speaker 1>no one safe haven for me. What life becomes about

0:43:40.160 --> 0:43:43.760
<v Speaker 1>is how someone can take you from A to a plus,

0:43:44.600 --> 0:43:48.160
<v Speaker 1>from a plus to D, from D to you know,

0:43:48.320 --> 0:43:52.200
<v Speaker 1>to M to M. You know, there are people who

0:43:52.280 --> 0:43:55.560
<v Speaker 1>can carry you at different points in your life. It

0:43:55.640 --> 0:43:58.640
<v Speaker 1>could be a teacher, it could be a parent, it

0:43:58.760 --> 0:44:01.759
<v Speaker 1>could be a relative, it could be a stranger that

0:44:01.880 --> 0:44:04.520
<v Speaker 1>gives you one word. I had a lot of teachers,

0:44:05.480 --> 0:44:08.719
<v Speaker 1>even the first teacher who looked at me. And he

0:44:08.880 --> 0:44:11.600
<v Speaker 1>was an acting coach who looked at me and told

0:44:11.640 --> 0:44:14.800
<v Speaker 1>me I was beautiful. That meant a lot to me.

0:44:15.560 --> 0:44:19.160
<v Speaker 1>And the first person who just came into science class

0:44:19.239 --> 0:44:21.480
<v Speaker 1>because he was a teacher and I called him in

0:44:21.520 --> 0:44:23.080
<v Speaker 1>the middle of the day. He was an upward bound

0:44:23.160 --> 0:44:25.720
<v Speaker 1>teacher and I said, I was having a panic attack.

0:44:26.000 --> 0:44:29.160
<v Speaker 1>He came to the school. He interrupted science class. He said,

0:44:29.160 --> 0:44:31.759
<v Speaker 1>I want to see viola. The science teacher said, you

0:44:31.880 --> 0:44:34.319
<v Speaker 1>can't do that. He said, excuse me, sir, I'm gonna

0:44:34.400 --> 0:44:38.840
<v Speaker 1>do it. Anybody, anybody who throws you a rope and

0:44:39.040 --> 0:44:43.919
<v Speaker 1>sees you and likes you. There is something about someone

0:44:44.040 --> 0:44:46.640
<v Speaker 1>looking at you and liking you right, and even saying

0:44:46.719 --> 0:44:49.480
<v Speaker 1>your potential when you can't see it absolutely, because sometimes

0:44:49.520 --> 0:44:52.239
<v Speaker 1>you tuck yourself out of things right because of fear.

0:44:52.440 --> 0:44:55.440
<v Speaker 1>But then someone tells you, like you're a science teacher, listen,

0:44:55.520 --> 0:44:57.200
<v Speaker 1>you need to apply for this. You can do it,

0:44:57.280 --> 0:44:59.160
<v Speaker 1>and you tell yourself, I can't do it. Why would

0:44:59.160 --> 0:45:01.640
<v Speaker 1>they take me? Why would accept me by somebody else

0:45:01.760 --> 0:45:04.320
<v Speaker 1>believing in you and giving you the tools, Like you

0:45:04.440 --> 0:45:07.640
<v Speaker 1>can't make excuses anymore after a while, And you know what,

0:45:08.000 --> 0:45:10.560
<v Speaker 1>very seldom am I in a space. And I know

0:45:10.840 --> 0:45:14.320
<v Speaker 1>y'all can say the same thing, but am I in

0:45:14.400 --> 0:45:17.239
<v Speaker 1>a space specially as a dark skinned black woman, and

0:45:17.360 --> 0:45:21.400
<v Speaker 1>could speak my truth about what that means the isolation

0:45:22.680 --> 0:45:27.839
<v Speaker 1>of that experience, okay, because it comes at you threefold.

0:45:28.440 --> 0:45:33.680
<v Speaker 1>It comes at you through yes, white America. It comes

0:45:34.719 --> 0:45:38.600
<v Speaker 1>to you through the experience and the culture of America,

0:45:39.040 --> 0:45:44.239
<v Speaker 1>and it comes to you through even black culture. I'm

0:45:44.280 --> 0:45:47.640
<v Speaker 1>just going to say it because it's called colorism. It's

0:45:47.680 --> 0:45:52.400
<v Speaker 1>its own different sect of racism, and it is destructive

0:45:53.239 --> 0:45:56.440
<v Speaker 1>because what you tell women in general is that beauty

0:45:56.680 --> 0:46:01.200
<v Speaker 1>is a value, which it's not. Listen, I'm one of

0:46:01.239 --> 0:46:04.400
<v Speaker 1>those people. I think everybody's beautiful, and I really do.

0:46:04.680 --> 0:46:10.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't talk about stuff like that. Oh yes, well

0:46:10.200 --> 0:46:14.000
<v Speaker 1>the bull frogs. That's a different level. There was some

0:46:14.160 --> 0:46:20.800
<v Speaker 1>meaning women. But you consider it a value. And with

0:46:21.280 --> 0:46:25.160
<v Speaker 1>someone who you feel has value, you pay attention to them,

0:46:25.719 --> 0:46:29.560
<v Speaker 1>You pour into them. You think that they're smarter, more valuable,

0:46:29.640 --> 0:46:32.880
<v Speaker 1>more everything. So when you go up to little chocolate

0:46:33.000 --> 0:46:35.640
<v Speaker 1>girls who are darker than a paper bag and you're

0:46:35.719 --> 0:46:40.640
<v Speaker 1>constantly telling them they're not as cute, they have bad hair,

0:46:41.239 --> 0:46:45.600
<v Speaker 1>they have this that you're putting negative connotations and then

0:46:45.719 --> 0:46:50.359
<v Speaker 1>you can now you can literally google people who seem

0:46:50.480 --> 0:46:55.799
<v Speaker 1>to have had press conferences to talk about how unattractive

0:46:55.880 --> 0:46:59.560
<v Speaker 1>they find darker skinned women. I mean, here's the thing.

0:46:59.640 --> 0:47:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Even if if you feel that way, why are you

0:47:01.920 --> 0:47:05.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna spread that? How do you think people could have

0:47:05.200 --> 0:47:08.719
<v Speaker 1>received that? And we know how difficult it is to

0:47:08.880 --> 0:47:11.600
<v Speaker 1>get a leg up, you know in the black community,

0:47:11.800 --> 0:47:15.640
<v Speaker 1>the lack of opportunity what we're running from, and then

0:47:15.680 --> 0:47:19.520
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna put that on us and so And when

0:47:19.560 --> 0:47:22.440
<v Speaker 1>you can't speak your truth in the room, then you

0:47:22.560 --> 0:47:26.080
<v Speaker 1>feel like you have to hide yourself. It's very it's

0:47:26.120 --> 0:47:29.000
<v Speaker 1>like physically painful. I want I want to ask you

0:47:29.000 --> 0:47:30.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple more questions about your father because I found

0:47:30.640 --> 0:47:32.759
<v Speaker 1>that dynamic so interesting. And you said something in the

0:47:32.760 --> 0:47:35.000
<v Speaker 1>book and on paraphrasing, but you said your father was

0:47:35.040 --> 0:47:38.160
<v Speaker 1>an abuser who became a good partner. Yeah, and this

0:47:38.320 --> 0:47:41.520
<v Speaker 1>era canceled coaches. Some people couldn't even imagine that happening.

0:47:41.560 --> 0:47:45.720
<v Speaker 1>Can you explain he did? And I think he always

0:47:45.920 --> 0:47:49.120
<v Speaker 1>had it in him. I think he was wrestling, you know.

0:47:49.320 --> 0:47:51.279
<v Speaker 1>I always feel like it got two people that you

0:47:51.360 --> 0:47:55.759
<v Speaker 1>wrestle with, right, and it's who you feed, and I

0:47:55.880 --> 0:47:59.080
<v Speaker 1>think he fed the more violent aspects of himself. I

0:47:59.200 --> 0:48:02.640
<v Speaker 1>think he was running from a lot. But in the

0:48:02.719 --> 0:48:05.960
<v Speaker 1>last several decades, I think, since I was probably in

0:48:06.080 --> 0:48:10.719
<v Speaker 1>my twenties, he helped my mom raise a lot of

0:48:11.280 --> 0:48:18.200
<v Speaker 1>my relatives children, and he loved my mother. He was

0:48:18.440 --> 0:48:22.440
<v Speaker 1>always there rubbing her feet, and towards the end of

0:48:22.520 --> 0:48:24.200
<v Speaker 1>his life, I mean, I say towards the end, the

0:48:24.280 --> 0:48:26.879
<v Speaker 1>last couple of days of his life, my mom would

0:48:26.920 --> 0:48:30.759
<v Speaker 1>always say, every single day he woke up, even when

0:48:30.840 --> 0:48:33.839
<v Speaker 1>he was suffering from dementia, towards the end, he would say,

0:48:33.880 --> 0:48:36.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, may Alice, you know I'm sorry about what

0:48:36.520 --> 0:48:40.080
<v Speaker 1>I did to you. Wow, I'm sorry. I feel like

0:48:41.080 --> 0:48:44.000
<v Speaker 1>that's everything. I mean, how many people do you know

0:48:44.840 --> 0:48:49.360
<v Speaker 1>that even make amends, that even opened their mouths, And

0:48:49.520 --> 0:48:53.719
<v Speaker 1>I think that that, I feel like that has to

0:48:53.800 --> 0:48:57.680
<v Speaker 1>be acknowledged as an incredible character trait. All right, Well,

0:48:57.680 --> 0:48:59.920
<v Speaker 1>no movie got more with Viola Davis. When we come back,

0:49:00.120 --> 0:49:03.840
<v Speaker 1>it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning Morning. Everybody is DJ Envy,

0:49:04.120 --> 0:49:07.040
<v Speaker 1>Angela Yee, Charlomagne the guy. We are to Breakfast Club.

0:49:07.080 --> 0:49:09.960
<v Speaker 1>We're still kicking it with Viola Davis. Charlomagne have you

0:49:10.320 --> 0:49:13.879
<v Speaker 1>had some conversations with your mom before this book came

0:49:13.920 --> 0:49:17.759
<v Speaker 1>out about Yes, because I know I saw you talking

0:49:17.800 --> 0:49:20.880
<v Speaker 1>to Oprah about that. So even afterwards, like after she

0:49:21.000 --> 0:49:23.239
<v Speaker 1>read it, what did she say? My mom has not

0:49:23.360 --> 0:49:26.040
<v Speaker 1>read it yet, but I talked to my mom all

0:49:26.080 --> 0:49:30.360
<v Speaker 1>the time about it. Once again, there are qualities I

0:49:30.520 --> 0:49:34.719
<v Speaker 1>love and my parents that probably are not the qualities

0:49:34.760 --> 0:49:37.279
<v Speaker 1>that I elevated. And the quality that I love in

0:49:37.400 --> 0:49:41.239
<v Speaker 1>my mom is she likes to tell the truth. And

0:49:41.400 --> 0:49:44.200
<v Speaker 1>I know that that sounds like really simple, but there's

0:49:44.239 --> 0:49:46.680
<v Speaker 1>not a lot of people like telling the truth. A

0:49:46.760 --> 0:49:49.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of people are very comfortable with telling a great,

0:49:49.600 --> 0:49:52.759
<v Speaker 1>beautiful lie. She's not afraid of that of leaning in.

0:49:53.400 --> 0:49:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I like my relationship with my mom now as an

0:49:56.000 --> 0:49:59.279
<v Speaker 1>adult because I can ask her some pretty racy questions. Yeah.

0:49:59.280 --> 0:50:01.160
<v Speaker 1>I want to ask you about a quote and it

0:50:01.280 --> 0:50:03.400
<v Speaker 1>came from a sit down with your mom when you

0:50:03.520 --> 0:50:06.520
<v Speaker 1>was telling her. I guess when you first about the

0:50:06.600 --> 0:50:08.360
<v Speaker 1>first when you was experience and abuse. You told her

0:50:08.360 --> 0:50:10.600
<v Speaker 1>for the first time about all these abuse experience and

0:50:10.719 --> 0:50:14.919
<v Speaker 1>you said success pales in comparison the healing. Yeah, could

0:50:14.920 --> 0:50:17.719
<v Speaker 1>you expand on it? I think you know the point

0:50:17.760 --> 0:50:21.239
<v Speaker 1>in the book when I when I wrote that, and

0:50:21.360 --> 0:50:23.160
<v Speaker 1>it took me a long time to write that part

0:50:24.080 --> 0:50:27.480
<v Speaker 1>is I mentioned that, you know, I'm living in this

0:50:27.680 --> 0:50:32.600
<v Speaker 1>big house. I'm definitely living the American dream or whatever.

0:50:33.239 --> 0:50:35.840
<v Speaker 1>And I think that people feel like, once you hit that,

0:50:35.960 --> 0:50:38.960
<v Speaker 1>then that's it. Ever, your life is sown, you've made it,

0:50:39.600 --> 0:50:43.720
<v Speaker 1>and it's not it. I think that's man made meaning.

0:50:44.560 --> 0:50:48.920
<v Speaker 1>The real meaning is healing. It really is. It's healing

0:50:49.040 --> 0:50:52.280
<v Speaker 1>from the wounds. It's the journey to healing. And especially

0:50:52.400 --> 0:50:55.680
<v Speaker 1>because you know, once I told her that once again,

0:50:55.880 --> 0:50:59.120
<v Speaker 1>I expected a response that I would see on Thursday

0:50:59.239 --> 0:51:02.440
<v Speaker 1>night line up on ABC. And how can you expect

0:51:02.520 --> 0:51:07.040
<v Speaker 1>that with something as complicated as sort of any kind

0:51:07.080 --> 0:51:10.880
<v Speaker 1>of sexual assault that happens within families in this instance,

0:51:11.080 --> 0:51:16.080
<v Speaker 1>my brother, and I'm telling my mother this, and this person,

0:51:16.880 --> 0:51:20.960
<v Speaker 1>this brother, came out of her body. There's a simplicity

0:51:21.040 --> 0:51:25.000
<v Speaker 1>in which we approach humanity, and I think that human

0:51:25.120 --> 0:51:29.919
<v Speaker 1>beings are way more complicated than that. So the path

0:51:30.040 --> 0:51:35.879
<v Speaker 1>the healing is difficult, But for me, it's everything. It's

0:51:36.520 --> 0:51:39.680
<v Speaker 1>not healing or healing has been the one thing that

0:51:39.840 --> 0:51:42.879
<v Speaker 1>has gotten in the way of everything in my life,

0:51:43.320 --> 0:51:45.719
<v Speaker 1>either gotten in the way of it or has released it.

0:51:46.400 --> 0:51:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Ability hasn't even released things in my life. Awards haven't

0:51:51.000 --> 0:51:54.560
<v Speaker 1>released anything in my life. Healing and whatever has happened,

0:51:54.800 --> 0:51:58.799
<v Speaker 1>happening and internally in me has been everything has been

0:51:59.120 --> 0:52:03.520
<v Speaker 1>the driving now narrative of my entire fifty six years.

0:52:03.920 --> 0:52:06.520
<v Speaker 1>You think you can ever get to a place of wholeness.

0:52:06.600 --> 0:52:08.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I talk to my therapists about this. I'm not.

0:52:08.760 --> 0:52:11.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you do. I think you because you'll

0:52:11.120 --> 0:52:13.840
<v Speaker 1>have triggers right, You'll think you're fine with something and

0:52:13.840 --> 0:52:15.759
<v Speaker 1>the next thing you know, you're triggered by it later on.

0:52:16.080 --> 0:52:17.719
<v Speaker 1>You think you ever can get to a place. And

0:52:17.800 --> 0:52:21.240
<v Speaker 1>I talk about that with memories, that memories are deathless.

0:52:22.000 --> 0:52:24.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what that means. I feel like I'm

0:52:24.239 --> 0:52:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I'm whole. I do, But I feel

0:52:28.200 --> 0:52:31.000
<v Speaker 1>like life is an absolute journey, just like you don't

0:52:31.000 --> 0:52:32.960
<v Speaker 1>know how many people are gonna love you. You don't

0:52:32.960 --> 0:52:35.279
<v Speaker 1>know what's going to happen tomorrow, and you don't know

0:52:35.680 --> 0:52:38.080
<v Speaker 1>how you're going to react to it. You know, And

0:52:38.320 --> 0:52:41.839
<v Speaker 1>once again, Thursday night line Up on ABC. I think

0:52:41.880 --> 0:52:45.520
<v Speaker 1>everybody wants a TV response. I don't think that life

0:52:45.719 --> 0:52:49.880
<v Speaker 1>is a destination. Life is about driving the car, and

0:52:50.040 --> 0:52:54.280
<v Speaker 1>sometimes the tank is completely full. Sometimes the tank is empty,

0:52:54.320 --> 0:52:57.000
<v Speaker 1>and you're standing by the car waiting, you know, for

0:52:57.040 --> 0:52:59.320
<v Speaker 1>a triple A to come and get you some gas.

0:52:59.719 --> 0:53:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Some times to tank as a quarter full. You're constantly learning,

0:53:04.360 --> 0:53:10.040
<v Speaker 1>you're constantly in process, but you hope for One of

0:53:10.120 --> 0:53:14.480
<v Speaker 1>my favorite quotes is, I don't know the definition of grace,

0:53:15.239 --> 0:53:18.000
<v Speaker 1>only that it meets you where you are and doesn't

0:53:18.080 --> 0:53:21.480
<v Speaker 1>leave you how it found you. You want some grace

0:53:21.560 --> 0:53:25.520
<v Speaker 1>in your life because you're never going to arrive perfectly

0:53:25.719 --> 0:53:29.080
<v Speaker 1>at any place. Let me get two questions this this

0:53:29.200 --> 0:53:31.320
<v Speaker 1>week about to go back. You spoke about out of

0:53:31.360 --> 0:53:33.640
<v Speaker 1>body experiences in the book, and you know you had

0:53:33.719 --> 0:53:35.520
<v Speaker 1>them when you were younger. I totally understand that because

0:53:35.520 --> 0:53:37.239
<v Speaker 1>I had those two. But what do you think those

0:53:37.280 --> 0:53:40.320
<v Speaker 1>experiences we're trying to show us about ourselves, Just the

0:53:40.440 --> 0:53:45.360
<v Speaker 1>infinite power we have in our minds, and infinite power

0:53:45.600 --> 0:53:53.160
<v Speaker 1>to transport ourselves, to explore our imagination, which is an

0:53:53.760 --> 0:53:58.600
<v Speaker 1>infinite field where we can redefine, reimagine, and the power

0:53:58.800 --> 0:54:05.239
<v Speaker 1>to relieve ourselves of the burden sometimes of negative negativity.

0:54:08.000 --> 0:54:11.120
<v Speaker 1>That everything we have is within ourselves. That's what it

0:54:12.000 --> 0:54:14.239
<v Speaker 1>taught me. Now I can't do it anymore. So I

0:54:14.280 --> 0:54:16.000
<v Speaker 1>don't know what that means. It seems like a thing

0:54:16.080 --> 0:54:17.719
<v Speaker 1>that happened when you was young. When you get older,

0:54:18.040 --> 0:54:21.040
<v Speaker 1>it don't happen anymore, exactly. I guess you know, when

0:54:21.080 --> 0:54:24.719
<v Speaker 1>I you know, the world gets at you and the

0:54:24.840 --> 0:54:28.080
<v Speaker 1>world begins to put up barriers around your life and

0:54:28.239 --> 0:54:32.319
<v Speaker 1>boundaries that you didn't have when you were younger. Yeah,

0:54:32.400 --> 0:54:34.800
<v Speaker 1>but I think that's what it teaches you, is that

0:54:35.400 --> 0:54:38.360
<v Speaker 1>everything you have you have within you and in the

0:54:38.440 --> 0:54:41.600
<v Speaker 1>secret Silent shame? Why that chapter? Why do you think

0:54:41.640 --> 0:54:43.399
<v Speaker 1>we as black people think we're doing ourselves a favor

0:54:43.520 --> 0:54:47.080
<v Speaker 1>by keeping secrets for me? And it's just my opinion.

0:54:47.760 --> 0:54:52.360
<v Speaker 1>I feel, especially as a black woman, that if I

0:54:52.520 --> 0:54:56.640
<v Speaker 1>think shame is a big thing with black folk, and

0:54:56.800 --> 0:54:59.680
<v Speaker 1>I think it's post traumatic slave syndrome, that there's a

0:54:59.760 --> 0:55:02.320
<v Speaker 1>lot things that we weren't allowed to do. Look a

0:55:02.400 --> 0:55:06.520
<v Speaker 1>white man in the eye, smile, look at a white woman.

0:55:08.680 --> 0:55:11.279
<v Speaker 1>There's so many things that we were punished for. But

0:55:11.480 --> 0:55:13.920
<v Speaker 1>more importantly, as a black woman, I feel like a

0:55:14.000 --> 0:55:16.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of the times when I keep things in it's

0:55:16.000 --> 0:55:18.880
<v Speaker 1>because I know I'm not going to be protected. I

0:55:19.040 --> 0:55:20.919
<v Speaker 1>know that there's not going to be anyone out there

0:55:21.080 --> 0:55:25.440
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna rescue me. I'm saying I'm not saying that

0:55:25.560 --> 0:55:28.480
<v Speaker 1>I need rescuing, But you know what, we need each other,

0:55:29.160 --> 0:55:33.480
<v Speaker 1>we really do. And the lack of adoration, the lack

0:55:33.520 --> 0:55:36.759
<v Speaker 1>of protection, makes you keep things within and makes you

0:55:36.880 --> 0:55:40.759
<v Speaker 1>try to just muster through and strong back even if

0:55:40.800 --> 0:55:45.960
<v Speaker 1>you're broken inside. And who cares about the inner pain

0:55:46.680 --> 0:55:50.960
<v Speaker 1>of black folk? You better care because certainly the culture

0:55:51.000 --> 0:55:55.040
<v Speaker 1>in the past has not cared, and we have an

0:55:55.120 --> 0:55:59.520
<v Speaker 1>aversion to therapy as black folk. I think that's changing, man.

0:56:00.080 --> 0:56:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I do think it's changing too. I completely agree with you.

0:56:03.320 --> 0:56:06.080
<v Speaker 1>But I think that's why we keep things in finding

0:56:06.160 --> 0:56:08.880
<v Speaker 1>me out right now. And there's so many great topics

0:56:08.920 --> 0:56:10.560
<v Speaker 1>in this book that I know we can go in

0:56:10.640 --> 0:56:13.160
<v Speaker 1>depth on at a later time. Fibruarries, that's this topic

0:56:13.200 --> 0:56:16.200
<v Speaker 1>we're always talking about here with black women. I know

0:56:16.320 --> 0:56:21.160
<v Speaker 1>you have the docuseries hungry for answers, and I'm excited

0:56:21.160 --> 0:56:23.480
<v Speaker 1>to talk about too, so you know, hopefully we'll get

0:56:23.520 --> 0:56:26.840
<v Speaker 1>to continue the conversation about those things too. And I

0:56:26.960 --> 0:56:28.600
<v Speaker 1>love how you end the book because I've never heard

0:56:29.080 --> 0:56:33.560
<v Speaker 1>somebody talk about their eight year old self protecting them Now,

0:56:34.080 --> 0:56:38.000
<v Speaker 1>it's always the other way around, so I would I

0:56:38.080 --> 0:56:39.239
<v Speaker 1>just want to know how you even got to that

0:56:39.320 --> 0:56:40.920
<v Speaker 1>point where you feel like the eight year old you

0:56:41.080 --> 0:56:46.080
<v Speaker 1>was protecting you now. A therapist told me that. He said,

0:56:46.600 --> 0:56:48.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you need to heal the eight year old.

0:56:49.200 --> 0:56:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I think the eight year old was pretty tough. She

0:56:52.520 --> 0:56:54.040
<v Speaker 1>was a good custle. You're a good cussle, you know.

0:56:55.400 --> 0:56:57.040
<v Speaker 1>To the audible version, I'm like, are you like Samuel

0:56:57.040 --> 0:57:02.920
<v Speaker 1>lol Jackson Lote? But you know I love it? Right? Congratulations,

0:57:05.920 --> 0:57:08.640
<v Speaker 1>right now, pick it up. It's Viola Davis. It's the

0:57:08.680 --> 0:57:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Breakfast Club. Good Morning, Man, Morning. Everybody's DJ Envy Angela Ye,

0:57:15.360 --> 0:57:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Charlomagne the guy. We are the Breakfast Club Man. Make

0:57:17.800 --> 0:57:19.960
<v Speaker 1>sure y'all go get Viola Davis's book. Fine to me,

0:57:20.040 --> 0:57:22.640
<v Speaker 1>I read it, but I also listened to it. That's

0:57:22.680 --> 0:57:24.440
<v Speaker 1>my thing nowadays. I'd like to read and listen to

0:57:24.480 --> 0:57:28.440
<v Speaker 1>the book at the same time. She narrated herself. Phenomenal, phenomenal,

0:57:28.520 --> 0:57:31.080
<v Speaker 1>phenomenal read man. I think it's really gonna help a

0:57:31.120 --> 0:57:33.400
<v Speaker 1>lot of individuals with their healing. But it is very

0:57:33.440 --> 0:57:35.840
<v Speaker 1>triggering if you grew up a certain way. But it's

0:57:35.840 --> 0:57:37.920
<v Speaker 1>a great read. All right. Well, let's get to the rumors.

0:57:38.000 --> 0:57:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk Kardashians Breakfast Club. All right, let's start light.

0:57:50.120 --> 0:57:53.040
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with Travis Barker. Now they're saying the hell

0:57:53.520 --> 0:57:57.600
<v Speaker 1>they're saying that Travis Barker went to Robert Kardashian Senior's

0:57:57.680 --> 0:58:02.560
<v Speaker 1>grave to ask for permission to marry Courtney. He said,

0:58:02.560 --> 0:58:05.080
<v Speaker 1>he wants to get married. Of course the dad passed away,

0:58:05.120 --> 0:58:07.160
<v Speaker 1>so he went to the grave to ask for permission.

0:58:07.280 --> 0:58:09.560
<v Speaker 1>Why do you listen, man, I understand why people go

0:58:09.600 --> 0:58:11.840
<v Speaker 1>to grave sites, you know, but the grave site is

0:58:11.880 --> 0:58:14.840
<v Speaker 1>really the symbol like a person's spirit still exists. You

0:58:14.880 --> 0:58:17.080
<v Speaker 1>can talk to a person's spirit anywhere. So he didn't

0:58:17.080 --> 0:58:18.920
<v Speaker 1>have to take that travil. No, I mean, nobody has

0:58:18.960 --> 0:58:20.560
<v Speaker 1>to do that. I understand why you do it, because

0:58:20.560 --> 0:58:22.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, you you buried your your loved one, so

0:58:23.040 --> 0:58:24.880
<v Speaker 1>you go there to you know, paying homage to the

0:58:25.320 --> 0:58:26.920
<v Speaker 1>to the grave site. But it's just like, yeah, you

0:58:26.960 --> 0:58:30.280
<v Speaker 1>can talk to the spirit of somebody anywhere. All right. Well,

0:58:30.680 --> 0:58:33.120
<v Speaker 1>you remember a couple of months ago, Kanye was talking

0:58:33.160 --> 0:58:36.760
<v Speaker 1>about getting the laptop back from Ray J. When he

0:58:36.800 --> 0:58:39.240
<v Speaker 1>was sitting down with Jason Lee from Hollywood. Unlock. That's right.

0:58:39.320 --> 0:58:41.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's listen. You know, how are you going to bring

0:58:41.280 --> 0:58:44.520
<v Speaker 1>me to s now and kiss the dude you dating

0:58:44.720 --> 0:58:47.320
<v Speaker 1>right in front of me, and everybody's like, oh, that's

0:58:47.640 --> 0:58:50.760
<v Speaker 1>that's cool. After I went and when he got the

0:58:50.840 --> 0:58:54.320
<v Speaker 1>laptop from ray J myself that night, right, and then

0:58:54.400 --> 0:58:56.880
<v Speaker 1>got on red I met this man at the airport,

0:58:57.000 --> 0:59:00.960
<v Speaker 1>then got on a Red Eye, came back, delivered it

0:59:01.040 --> 0:59:03.960
<v Speaker 1>to her at eight animal in the morning, and then

0:59:04.480 --> 0:59:06.760
<v Speaker 1>I gave it to her and she cried when she

0:59:06.840 --> 0:59:10.120
<v Speaker 1>saw it. Well, of course, keeping up with the Kardashians,

0:59:10.360 --> 0:59:11.760
<v Speaker 1>h they have a show us. I think it's on Hulu,

0:59:11.920 --> 0:59:14.960
<v Speaker 1>right on Hulu. So the episode last night, Kim Kai

0:59:15.160 --> 0:59:17.360
<v Speaker 1>talks about it and she's actually crying and all that

0:59:17.480 --> 0:59:21.240
<v Speaker 1>other stuff. So Kanye flew last night and he came

0:59:21.280 --> 0:59:23.000
<v Speaker 1>back this morning. Can't want to show you guys what

0:59:23.160 --> 0:59:26.160
<v Speaker 1>he got me. He got me all of the sex

0:59:26.400 --> 0:59:33.200
<v Speaker 1>take out, Oh my god. And he got her drive

0:59:34.720 --> 0:59:40.480
<v Speaker 1>and airport and got it all. Kim Oh my god.

0:59:41.680 --> 0:59:44.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, I know Kanye did this for me, but

0:59:44.400 --> 0:59:46.640
<v Speaker 1>he also did this for my kids. I want to

0:59:46.720 --> 0:59:56.280
<v Speaker 1>shield them from as much as I can, said Calf said,

0:59:57.400 --> 1:00:05.320
<v Speaker 1>where's this coming from? It's your fault, that's mine. Okay,

1:00:05.520 --> 1:00:07.120
<v Speaker 1>all right, go ahead, all right, let me let me

1:00:07.360 --> 1:00:11.080
<v Speaker 1>RePhase that. Ray J said, cab. He said, all of

1:00:11.120 --> 1:00:14.000
<v Speaker 1>this is a lie. Shaking my head. I can't let

1:00:14.080 --> 1:00:17.240
<v Speaker 1>them do this anymore. So untrue. I would like to

1:00:17.280 --> 1:00:18.920
<v Speaker 1>know what ray J is talking about. But what I

1:00:18.920 --> 1:00:21.200
<v Speaker 1>also found interested in that clip. If you watch that clip,

1:00:21.680 --> 1:00:23.560
<v Speaker 1>is that Kim said there was nothing on those tapes.

1:00:23.640 --> 1:00:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Like she said, it was like them at dinner and

1:00:25.680 --> 1:00:28.040
<v Speaker 1>them doing like regular stuff. So like, why did they

1:00:28.120 --> 1:00:31.400
<v Speaker 1>keep calling them sex tapes if there's nothing on them? Yeah,

1:00:31.440 --> 1:00:32.880
<v Speaker 1>and why did y'all hear that in the clip of

1:00:33.040 --> 1:00:35.600
<v Speaker 1>my triplets? Can you play that clip again? Let's tailor

1:00:35.680 --> 1:00:38.160
<v Speaker 1>might have cut it, but that isn't there right, Oh,

1:00:38.240 --> 1:00:41.160
<v Speaker 1>let me hear it. Listen, it's the end part. We

1:00:41.360 --> 1:00:44.560
<v Speaker 1>gotta pull it up. We'll pull it up, pull it up, No,

1:00:44.720 --> 1:00:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I said, pull it up. No, that's not it. Oh no,

1:00:48.320 --> 1:00:55.240
<v Speaker 1>mind right last night and you can't fast forward? No, no, no,

1:00:56.880 --> 1:01:02.919
<v Speaker 1>sea back. Oh my god, and he home you got

1:01:04.520 --> 1:01:11.040
<v Speaker 1>her guy and Raj at the airport and got it all. Kim,

1:01:11.360 --> 1:01:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, that's amazing. And no Kanye did this kid?

1:01:18.040 --> 1:01:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I want to shield them from as much as I can. No. Oh, yeah,

1:01:22.000 --> 1:01:24.160
<v Speaker 1>she keeps talking and she said, there's nothing really on

1:01:24.240 --> 1:01:26.080
<v Speaker 1>the tips. She was like, they're at dinner and they're

1:01:26.200 --> 1:01:28.800
<v Speaker 1>like doing regular stuff, a couple of stuff. Then why

1:01:28.800 --> 1:01:31.439
<v Speaker 1>is she crying? Man? I don't know, because it's TV,

1:01:32.000 --> 1:01:35.320
<v Speaker 1>That's why. Why is it so because it's TV. If

1:01:35.320 --> 1:01:37.520
<v Speaker 1>we're just going to get dinner and just change the beach,

1:01:37.640 --> 1:01:40.760
<v Speaker 1>it's TV. Why is it so dramatic? It's TV? Okay,

1:01:40.920 --> 1:01:43.920
<v Speaker 1>So like, why was it so? Listen? First of all,

1:01:44.000 --> 1:01:46.760
<v Speaker 1>stop questioning the best? Who ever did it for reality TV? Okay?

1:01:46.840 --> 1:01:49.120
<v Speaker 1>All right? Dropping a clue BUMX for the Kardashians. All right,

1:01:49.160 --> 1:01:53.360
<v Speaker 1>we've been talking about them for ten years? Okay, all right?

1:01:53.600 --> 1:01:55.760
<v Speaker 1>So you mean there was nothing, no other sex. They

1:01:55.800 --> 1:01:58.120
<v Speaker 1>were just having dinner. Unless I heard wrong. I thought her.

1:01:58.200 --> 1:02:00.280
<v Speaker 1>I heard her say that they were just they it

1:02:00.360 --> 1:02:02.200
<v Speaker 1>was just regular stuff on there, like them that dinner

1:02:02.240 --> 1:02:04.000
<v Speaker 1>and them doing some other stuff. They want to cry,

1:02:04.200 --> 1:02:06.480
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know, I don't know. Maybe she thought

1:02:06.480 --> 1:02:09.360
<v Speaker 1>it was something else but it wasn't. I don't know.

1:02:09.440 --> 1:02:10.840
<v Speaker 1>So he met him at the airport to get a

1:02:10.880 --> 1:02:15.200
<v Speaker 1>tape of them eating dinner. I don't know. Ray J say,

1:02:15.200 --> 1:02:18.520
<v Speaker 1>they're all lying, Okay, he said, yap, all right, well

1:02:18.640 --> 1:02:21.560
<v Speaker 1>he ray J on the phone and some other Kardashian

1:02:21.760 --> 1:02:24.920
<v Speaker 1>news people are upset at kardashes because, they say, and

1:02:24.920 --> 1:02:27.440
<v Speaker 1>they're receiving special treatment in the courtroom and this is

1:02:27.480 --> 1:02:29.880
<v Speaker 1>what with their battle with Black China. They said, they're

1:02:29.880 --> 1:02:32.560
<v Speaker 1>getting special entrances to get in and out of the courtroom,

1:02:32.800 --> 1:02:35.360
<v Speaker 1>and also they have private rooms to sit and talk.

1:02:35.760 --> 1:02:38.240
<v Speaker 1>They said, this is not usually what people do, but

1:02:38.680 --> 1:02:46.680
<v Speaker 1>because they are the Kardashians, allegedly, that's what's happening. Okay,

1:02:47.320 --> 1:02:51.880
<v Speaker 1>that's all you got. Man's Kardashian news. First of all,

1:02:51.880 --> 1:02:53.880
<v Speaker 1>at first I thought, you know what, they are celebrities,

1:02:53.880 --> 1:02:55.520
<v Speaker 1>so I understand that. But then like, nah, we've seen

1:02:55.560 --> 1:02:57.800
<v Speaker 1>celebrities walking out of court surrounded by cameras, so yeah,

1:02:57.800 --> 1:03:01.040
<v Speaker 1>that would be preferential treatment. But that's all you up. Yeah,

1:03:01.280 --> 1:03:03.680
<v Speaker 1>that's it. That's it, this Kardashian news. I'm just curious

1:03:03.760 --> 1:03:07.960
<v Speaker 1>she they really cried over dinner. That's all you got.

1:03:10.160 --> 1:03:13.560
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, that is your rumor report. I wish

1:03:13.600 --> 1:03:15.880
<v Speaker 1>I had more. You just I thought it was another

1:03:16.080 --> 1:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>part of the sex state. But you're just telling me

1:03:17.440 --> 1:03:19.880
<v Speaker 1>they just going to dinner, chilling on the listen to me. Yeah,

1:03:20.040 --> 1:03:22.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm just talking. I'll just be thinking. I hear stuff. Okay,

1:03:23.000 --> 1:03:27.240
<v Speaker 1>I heard that. I heard child. All right, what were

1:03:27.240 --> 1:03:29.320
<v Speaker 1>you giving your donkey? Man? Four after the Hour, we

1:03:29.400 --> 1:03:31.360
<v Speaker 1>really need to have a conversation about how people don't

1:03:31.400 --> 1:03:34.560
<v Speaker 1>know how to communicate with each other, no more especially men,

1:03:34.960 --> 1:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>young men when it comes to women. You know what

1:03:36.720 --> 1:03:38.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, and trying to highlight women. You know, we

1:03:38.640 --> 1:03:40.400
<v Speaker 1>grew up in the nineteen hundreds, you know what I'm saying.

1:03:40.400 --> 1:03:43.400
<v Speaker 1>We grew up in a very romantic era. Last decade.

1:03:43.680 --> 1:03:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Come on, now, we grew up in a very right now,

1:03:45.600 --> 1:03:50.600
<v Speaker 1>that wasn't the last decade a couple, you know what

1:03:50.600 --> 1:03:52.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean. But yes, we'll talk about that. Four after

1:03:52.800 --> 1:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>the Hour. I'm sorry that this young lady in Chicago

1:03:54.560 --> 1:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>had to go through this, but we'll discuss all right,

1:03:56.040 --> 1:03:57.959
<v Speaker 1>we'll get into that next. It's the Breakfast Club. Good morning,

1:04:45.200 --> 1:04:48.040
<v Speaker 1>to a student at a high school in Chicago. The

1:04:48.120 --> 1:04:51.240
<v Speaker 1>high school is called Burlington's Central High School in Central

1:04:51.280 --> 1:04:54.479
<v Speaker 1>Community Unit School District three oh one. That's a long

1:04:54.720 --> 1:04:57.120
<v Speaker 1>ass name for a high school. Okay, I want to

1:04:57.120 --> 1:05:00.320
<v Speaker 1>salute one of the students at the school, a young sister,

1:05:00.680 --> 1:05:02.680
<v Speaker 1>a young queen by the name of Kayla Haynes. Dropping

1:05:02.680 --> 1:05:05.919
<v Speaker 1>on the clues bombs for Kayla Haynes police. I guess

1:05:05.960 --> 1:05:08.920
<v Speaker 1>it's Prim season in a lot of places, and its

1:05:08.960 --> 1:05:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Prom season in Chicago, and folks is chosen, Okay, trying

1:05:11.960 --> 1:05:13.320
<v Speaker 1>to see who they want to go to Prim with,

1:05:13.480 --> 1:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>trying to see who to ask to go to Prime.

1:05:15.600 --> 1:05:18.560
<v Speaker 1>And one things for sure, two things for certain, y'all

1:05:18.560 --> 1:05:20.840
<v Speaker 1>don't know how to talk to no women. Okay, listen, younges,

1:05:21.000 --> 1:05:23.280
<v Speaker 1>this your uncle charlat talking. Okay, brother Lenard, I am

1:05:23.360 --> 1:05:25.840
<v Speaker 1>forty three years old. I was born in the nineteen hundreds,

1:05:25.880 --> 1:05:28.840
<v Speaker 1>dropping the clues bombs for everybody born in the nineteen hundreds. Okay,

1:05:29.280 --> 1:05:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I didn't pass the ball, but I know a little bit,

1:05:31.200 --> 1:05:33.120
<v Speaker 1>and I know that social media has made a whole

1:05:33.160 --> 1:05:36.080
<v Speaker 1>generation of people socially awkward. Now, I'm a person that

1:05:36.200 --> 1:05:39.440
<v Speaker 1>deals with heavy anxiety, so interactions with humans are already

1:05:39.520 --> 1:05:42.040
<v Speaker 1>awkward and have always been awkward. But growing up in

1:05:42.080 --> 1:05:45.160
<v Speaker 1>the nineteen hundreds, I still developed great social skills because

1:05:45.160 --> 1:05:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I had no other choice. Okay, I had to talk

1:05:47.240 --> 1:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>to people. I had to look people in the eyes

1:05:48.920 --> 1:05:50.840
<v Speaker 1>when I talk to them. I couldn't hide behind an

1:05:50.880 --> 1:05:53.880
<v Speaker 1>avatar or stay in my room on YouTube all day

1:05:54.000 --> 1:05:57.000
<v Speaker 1>communicating with people through phones and computers. In fact, we

1:05:57.120 --> 1:06:01.800
<v Speaker 1>spent hours on the phone actually talking to people. Think

1:06:01.840 --> 1:06:05.440
<v Speaker 1>about that, Okay, I am an individual who hate small talk.

1:06:05.520 --> 1:06:08.640
<v Speaker 1>I hate trying to force conversation. So think about growing

1:06:08.720 --> 1:06:10.640
<v Speaker 1>up in the nineteen hundreds and being on the phone

1:06:10.640 --> 1:06:14.360
<v Speaker 1>with a person for hours, just talking okay words, hearing

1:06:14.440 --> 1:06:17.320
<v Speaker 1>them actually speak their voice. Think about the people you

1:06:17.440 --> 1:06:21.960
<v Speaker 1>used to sit around and just kick it with laughing, joking, crying, fussing,

1:06:22.040 --> 1:06:25.919
<v Speaker 1>whatever it was. You learned a different set of communication skills. Okay,

1:06:25.920 --> 1:06:28.520
<v Speaker 1>you understood how to read body language. You knew when

1:06:28.560 --> 1:06:31.200
<v Speaker 1>someone was being sarcastic. Okay, you knew when they were

1:06:31.240 --> 1:06:33.400
<v Speaker 1>just joking. If it came to a debate, you had

1:06:33.480 --> 1:06:35.280
<v Speaker 1>to know what you was talking about on the spot.

1:06:35.560 --> 1:06:38.280
<v Speaker 1>You couldn't google things and copy and paste them okay

1:06:38.480 --> 1:06:40.600
<v Speaker 1>before your post. So you sound smarter than you are,

1:06:40.760 --> 1:06:42.720
<v Speaker 1>all right. You couldn't go online and see what everyone

1:06:42.800 --> 1:06:45.120
<v Speaker 1>thinks about a situation. It didn't run with those talking points.

1:06:45.160 --> 1:06:48.360
<v Speaker 1>We didn't spend so much time discussing what we think

1:06:48.440 --> 1:06:53.560
<v Speaker 1>about things. We spent time actually critically thinking. Okay, smartphones

1:06:53.600 --> 1:06:56.560
<v Speaker 1>had made a generation of dumb people. Emotional intelligence is

1:06:56.760 --> 1:06:59.439
<v Speaker 1>at an all time low. People don't have any comprehension skills,

1:06:59.480 --> 1:07:01.120
<v Speaker 1>and that is why we don't know how to talk

1:07:01.200 --> 1:07:04.440
<v Speaker 1>to each other. And you young and definitely don't know

1:07:04.520 --> 1:07:07.120
<v Speaker 1>how to talk to women. Now, I'm not sitting here

1:07:07.160 --> 1:07:09.280
<v Speaker 1>saying we knew how to talk to women either, Okay.

1:07:09.280 --> 1:07:11.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean I grew up on Uncle Luke and death

1:07:11.280 --> 1:07:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Rol records in the nineteen hundred, but I also grew

1:07:13.640 --> 1:07:16.080
<v Speaker 1>up on Joda. See okay, I grew up on Love Jones.

1:07:16.240 --> 1:07:18.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, UNC knows how to be romantic. And I'm

1:07:18.280 --> 1:07:20.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna tell you something. One thing I was always good

1:07:20.680 --> 1:07:26.160
<v Speaker 1>at was a note. Oh those hand letters, Oh oh oh,

1:07:26.240 --> 1:07:28.600
<v Speaker 1>those handwritten letters used to be game changes. Weren't they? Envy?

1:07:28.640 --> 1:07:31.760
<v Speaker 1>They to drop writing the locker. When a human takes

1:07:31.800 --> 1:07:34.400
<v Speaker 1>the time to write a letter, pass you a little note,

1:07:34.480 --> 1:07:37.600
<v Speaker 1>whether it's you know, will you go with me? Check yes, no?

1:07:38.120 --> 1:07:42.040
<v Speaker 1>Or maybe? Gotta have the maybe, always maybe because rejection hurts. Okay,

1:07:42.040 --> 1:07:43.880
<v Speaker 1>so you gotta have the maybe. All right? Oh when

1:07:43.920 --> 1:07:45.760
<v Speaker 1>a Leah God Bless the Dead came out with four

1:07:45.840 --> 1:07:48.920
<v Speaker 1>page letter, man, when you write someone a four page

1:07:49.040 --> 1:07:52.200
<v Speaker 1>letter and then and then you enclose it with a kiss,

1:07:52.320 --> 1:07:53.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean I never did that. Women do that because

1:07:53.880 --> 1:07:55.440
<v Speaker 1>of the lipstick and that lipstick print on that four

1:07:55.480 --> 1:07:58.040
<v Speaker 1>page letter. What I used to do with spray cologne

1:07:58.160 --> 1:08:02.200
<v Speaker 1>on the paper way obsession back in the day dropped

1:08:02.200 --> 1:08:04.040
<v Speaker 1>on the clus bumps where everybody who used to break

1:08:04.040 --> 1:08:05.960
<v Speaker 1>alone on the ba and they used to write a

1:08:06.000 --> 1:08:08.840
<v Speaker 1>little sweetheart a letter. Okay, And I've always had a

1:08:08.840 --> 1:08:10.760
<v Speaker 1>way with words, which explains why God hasn't me and

1:08:10.840 --> 1:08:12.959
<v Speaker 1>the professions I'm in now. But all I'm simply saying

1:08:13.080 --> 1:08:15.560
<v Speaker 1>is we understood the power of our words, because that's

1:08:15.560 --> 1:08:17.680
<v Speaker 1>all we had. A guy grew up in Monks going

1:08:17.720 --> 1:08:19.840
<v Speaker 1>to the South Carolina. I ain't no damn money, Okay.

1:08:19.880 --> 1:08:21.280
<v Speaker 1>All I had was a gift to gap. And you

1:08:21.320 --> 1:08:24.080
<v Speaker 1>had to put real thought, in real feeling into your words.

1:08:24.120 --> 1:08:25.960
<v Speaker 1>And you had to walk up to that woman, looked

1:08:26.000 --> 1:08:27.920
<v Speaker 1>him in the eyes and slipped him that note. And

1:08:28.080 --> 1:08:30.160
<v Speaker 1>he said he slipped it in the locker. Okay. But

1:08:30.640 --> 1:08:32.360
<v Speaker 1>one thing to shore. Two things were certain when you

1:08:32.360 --> 1:08:35.559
<v Speaker 1>saw him later and got that note back. They wrote

1:08:35.560 --> 1:08:37.160
<v Speaker 1>you a note back and that number was on it.

1:08:39.240 --> 1:08:41.519
<v Speaker 1>You know, you had to have at least minimum three

1:08:41.560 --> 1:08:43.960
<v Speaker 1>hours of conversation. So when you got home from school

1:08:44.080 --> 1:08:46.479
<v Speaker 1>and you took that phone from the kitchen and stretched

1:08:46.520 --> 1:08:48.400
<v Speaker 1>that card into the living room. Yes, kids, we used

1:08:48.400 --> 1:08:50.000
<v Speaker 1>to have cards on the phone. When you stretched that

1:08:50.080 --> 1:08:51.600
<v Speaker 1>card from the kitchen to the living room so you

1:08:51.680 --> 1:08:54.880
<v Speaker 1>could watch Rap City, you were talking to that individual

1:08:55.080 --> 1:08:57.559
<v Speaker 1>for at least three hours until your parents came home.

1:08:57.960 --> 1:08:59.599
<v Speaker 1>Then your parents come home and fusted you because they've

1:08:59.600 --> 1:09:00.880
<v Speaker 1>been trying to call in the line was busy. This

1:09:00.960 --> 1:09:03.760
<v Speaker 1>is before a call waiting bro the nineteen hundreds was wow,

1:09:06.840 --> 1:09:09.040
<v Speaker 1>who do we call for emergency? Where everybody was on

1:09:09.080 --> 1:09:10.720
<v Speaker 1>the phote all the time, and you get that damn

1:09:10.760 --> 1:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>busy thing. Though, all I'm saying is, y'all don't know

1:09:13.000 --> 1:09:15.160
<v Speaker 1>how to communicate with each other. Okay, y'all how to

1:09:15.200 --> 1:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>communicate with each other without these smartphones and laptops. And

1:09:17.680 --> 1:09:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry that Paul Kayla Haynes had to go through

1:09:20.760 --> 1:09:23.360
<v Speaker 1>what she went through. But Kayla was asked to go

1:09:23.479 --> 1:09:26.400
<v Speaker 1>to the prom and her promposal as people in this

1:09:26.520 --> 1:09:29.559
<v Speaker 1>district of Chicago outraged. Let's go to NBC five Chicago

1:09:29.640 --> 1:09:32.000
<v Speaker 1>for the report police. The post on social media left

1:09:32.080 --> 1:09:35.840
<v Speaker 1>Kayla Haynes disappointed and surprised. How could someone in the

1:09:35.960 --> 1:09:38.200
<v Speaker 1>right mind post this and think it was okay? A

1:09:38.320 --> 1:09:41.479
<v Speaker 1>classmated Central High School in Burlington posted this for an

1:09:41.560 --> 1:09:44.960
<v Speaker 1>online prom proposal. It reads, if I were black, I'd

1:09:45.000 --> 1:09:47.920
<v Speaker 1>be picking cotton, but I'm white, so I'm picking you.

1:09:48.240 --> 1:09:50.320
<v Speaker 1>She's just as wrong as him for her to even

1:09:50.360 --> 1:09:52.200
<v Speaker 1>take the picture and sit there and say, yeah, oh

1:09:52.280 --> 1:09:54.920
<v Speaker 1>my god, I would love to go to problem with

1:09:54.960 --> 1:09:57.760
<v Speaker 1>you with this racist poster. Kayla says while some may

1:09:57.760 --> 1:09:59.680
<v Speaker 1>see it as a joke, she and many of her

1:09:59.680 --> 1:10:02.759
<v Speaker 1>class hetmates do not. She recently met with the principle

1:10:02.840 --> 1:10:05.240
<v Speaker 1>about the post. It's not just a black and white issue.

1:10:05.720 --> 1:10:09.599
<v Speaker 1>It's also Asians, Indians, Hispanics being affected by this too,

1:10:10.000 --> 1:10:12.519
<v Speaker 1>and that needs to be talked about. Eric Monroe Haynes

1:10:12.520 --> 1:10:14.720
<v Speaker 1>as Kayla's dad. When I read it, I said, Wow,

1:10:14.960 --> 1:10:17.639
<v Speaker 1>she handled it very well to me, and I think

1:10:17.680 --> 1:10:19.400
<v Speaker 1>the problem now is how the school is going to

1:10:19.479 --> 1:10:21.360
<v Speaker 1>handle it. Kayala says she liked both of the students

1:10:21.400 --> 1:10:24.479
<v Speaker 1>to apologize for that post. Meanwhile, the school district's not

1:10:24.600 --> 1:10:28.479
<v Speaker 1>saying what if any punishment the students could face. If

1:10:28.520 --> 1:10:30.479
<v Speaker 1>I was black, I'd be picking cotton, but I'm white,

1:10:30.520 --> 1:10:35.400
<v Speaker 1>so I'm picking you. That is so disrespectful. This is

1:10:35.439 --> 1:10:37.840
<v Speaker 1>why you have to have critical race theory in the schools. Okay,

1:10:37.960 --> 1:10:39.920
<v Speaker 1>young man, I don't know what you've thought the conditions

1:10:39.960 --> 1:10:41.960
<v Speaker 1>were when black folks was picking cotton in this country.

1:10:42.320 --> 1:10:44.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what misconceptions you have about that act

1:10:44.479 --> 1:10:46.680
<v Speaker 1>of labor that made this country rich, but let me

1:10:46.720 --> 1:10:48.840
<v Speaker 1>be the first to tell you that ain't it. Nope, Okay,

1:10:48.920 --> 1:10:51.320
<v Speaker 1>that wasn't the move those weren't the words to use.

1:10:51.400 --> 1:10:53.840
<v Speaker 1>And the fact that you've made it like it's a postboard.

1:10:53.880 --> 1:10:56.160
<v Speaker 1>So he put thought into it his post board. He

1:10:56.479 --> 1:10:58.840
<v Speaker 1>got actual cotton for the words, all types of stuff.

1:10:59.000 --> 1:11:01.559
<v Speaker 1>And then somebody took that picture for you, and then

1:11:01.600 --> 1:11:05.400
<v Speaker 1>you posted it online. Where is the filters, where is

1:11:05.439 --> 1:11:08.200
<v Speaker 1>the checks and balances? There's nobody that says what are

1:11:08.240 --> 1:11:10.200
<v Speaker 1>you doing? And then when you tell them, they don't

1:11:10.240 --> 1:11:13.120
<v Speaker 1>say stop them. Okay, somebody took the picture for you

1:11:13.200 --> 1:11:15.760
<v Speaker 1>and let you put that online. I mean, come on,

1:11:15.840 --> 1:11:17.360
<v Speaker 1>you might as well have said to her, hey, you

1:11:17.479 --> 1:11:20.040
<v Speaker 1>look like trash. I need to take you out. Okay.

1:11:20.400 --> 1:11:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Like I know, when we was kids, we would probably

1:11:22.320 --> 1:11:24.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, act like we didn't like a girl when

1:11:24.880 --> 1:11:26.519
<v Speaker 1>we really liked the girl. But trust me when I

1:11:26.600 --> 1:11:30.360
<v Speaker 1>tell you, insults never worked. You will attract more flies

1:11:30.400 --> 1:11:33.840
<v Speaker 1>with honey than vinegar. Not saying women are flies, it's

1:11:33.880 --> 1:11:36.880
<v Speaker 1>just to figure of speech, okay. In fact, women are sugar,

1:11:37.120 --> 1:11:40.320
<v Speaker 1>and you should tell a woman, are you sugar? Because

1:11:40.320 --> 1:11:45.559
<v Speaker 1>you're sweet and I want to spoon you? That? Ain't it? Okay?

1:11:45.600 --> 1:11:48.719
<v Speaker 1>What about? Are you powdered sugar because you're sweet and fine?

1:11:50.280 --> 1:11:53.439
<v Speaker 1>Ain't it either? What about baby, I just poured some

1:11:53.560 --> 1:11:56.200
<v Speaker 1>sugar on myself. Are you ready for a sweet ride?

1:11:57.560 --> 1:12:00.439
<v Speaker 1>That ain't it either? Okay? My brother, Well, y'all just

1:12:00.479 --> 1:12:01.960
<v Speaker 1>need to get some money, man, Just get rich because

1:12:01.960 --> 1:12:03.880
<v Speaker 1>maybe we didn't know how to communicate in the nineteen hundreds,

1:12:03.920 --> 1:12:05.840
<v Speaker 1>like I thought either, okay, but what I know is

1:12:05.960 --> 1:12:08.800
<v Speaker 1>we was better than this. Yes, all right, please give

1:12:08.880 --> 1:12:15.960
<v Speaker 1>that young man in Chicago the biggest he hall are

1:12:16.000 --> 1:12:19.960
<v Speaker 1>your feet tied? You've been running through my mind all day? Okay,

1:12:20.120 --> 1:12:22.040
<v Speaker 1>that's a good That was that? That hitting the nineteen hundreds.

1:12:22.360 --> 1:12:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Now I know y'all listening out there and y'all like

1:12:24.120 --> 1:12:26.600
<v Speaker 1>that was whacked. But that hitting the nineteen in the

1:12:26.720 --> 1:12:30.600
<v Speaker 1>nineteen hundreds, that hit? Okay? Yes, what else you have

1:12:30.760 --> 1:12:37.880
<v Speaker 1>for so good? Well? I can't think of that. See

1:12:38.000 --> 1:12:43.559

1:14:09.280 --> 1:14:11.720
<v Speaker 1>interesting questions, like she'll be like, what percentage of white

1:14:21.280 --> 1:14:24.120
<v Speaker 1>you hate more, slower walkers or racism? You know some

1:14:24.160 --> 1:14:28.360
<v Speaker 1>people said slow walkers. I can say that. I know

1:14:29.439 --> 1:14:31.080
<v Speaker 1>it depends what you did with every day. I mean,

1:14:31.120 --> 1:14:32.679
<v Speaker 1>we know that, and leave what says on the show

1:14:33.040 --> 1:14:37.479
<v Speaker 1>slow Walkers iconic gets to walk around slow walker. Yeah,

1:14:37.560 --> 1:14:41.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like a walk around racist too well, because if

1:14:41.400 --> 1:14:47.200
<v Speaker 1>you get rid of racism, some people can use arrows.

1:14:47.439 --> 1:14:51.639
<v Speaker 1>I walk around and that's grave. I love. Let's talk

1:14:51.640 --> 1:14:53.920
<v Speaker 1>about your background before you got this show, because you

1:14:54.000 --> 1:14:56.760
<v Speaker 1>started off with doing this show on your own on Instagram.

1:14:56.960 --> 1:15:00.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah right, so how did that even start? The endemic

1:15:00.600 --> 1:15:03.719
<v Speaker 1>was wild. Everyone was breaking like they were making bread.

1:15:04.000 --> 1:15:06.639
<v Speaker 1>That's so I don't do that. And so I started

1:15:06.840 --> 1:15:09.679
<v Speaker 1>doing this live show on IG Live where I would

1:15:09.720 --> 1:15:12.519
<v Speaker 1>talk to people like Caroline Callaway or Alice in Roman

1:15:12.720 --> 1:15:15.680
<v Speaker 1>or like Rose McGowan about race, and it just kind

1:15:15.720 --> 1:15:17.920
<v Speaker 1>of blew up. But I've been working through this idea

1:15:18.000 --> 1:15:20.320
<v Speaker 1>since like twenty sixteen. It was it was it that

1:15:20.479 --> 1:15:23.800
<v Speaker 1>moment that made you discuss race. No, okay, I think

1:15:23.880 --> 1:15:27.360
<v Speaker 1>that it's inescapable right since birth. You have to deal

1:15:27.439 --> 1:15:28.760
<v Speaker 1>with that. I don't want to deal with that. I

1:15:28.880 --> 1:15:31.600
<v Speaker 1>want to talk about, like contouring, I don't want to

1:15:31.600 --> 1:15:35.439
<v Speaker 1>talk about it sucks. Who wants racism? That's horrible? Yeah, so,

1:15:35.640 --> 1:15:37.599
<v Speaker 1>but it's when you're a kid, you're you're you're, you're

1:15:37.680 --> 1:15:40.679
<v Speaker 1>confronted with it and suddenly, okay, I've learned to process

1:15:40.720 --> 1:15:42.800
<v Speaker 1>it as an adult now as anyway, has anybody ever

1:15:42.920 --> 1:15:46.200
<v Speaker 1>after an interview asked you to take anything out, no comment?

1:15:46.880 --> 1:15:48.760
<v Speaker 1>How's that happened to you? Yes? Yes, all the time

1:15:49.439 --> 1:15:53.000
<v Speaker 1>it happens. Let's be honest. Okay, you know sometimes you

1:15:53.120 --> 1:15:55.759
<v Speaker 1>have to say why I can't hear you you're a phone.

1:15:56.600 --> 1:15:58.680
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes you do that, and then sometimes you do want

1:15:58.680 --> 1:16:00.679
<v Speaker 1>to save people from theirself or if you know what's

1:16:00.680 --> 1:16:03.160
<v Speaker 1>going to go out, it might hurt other people. I see. Yeah.

1:16:03.280 --> 1:16:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I am never in the position where I'm trying to

1:16:05.320 --> 1:16:08.599
<v Speaker 1>be malicious and ruined people's lives. That's not fine, that's

1:16:08.640 --> 1:16:11.120
<v Speaker 1>not entertaining to me. So I'm just trying to like

1:16:11.400 --> 1:16:13.760
<v Speaker 1>have good conversations. So I really believe in consent in

1:16:13.840 --> 1:16:16.479
<v Speaker 1>the interview. Who would your best interview? And I will

1:16:16.560 --> 1:16:19.360
<v Speaker 1>never say who my best? My interviews are like children.

1:16:19.439 --> 1:16:21.880
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to pick a favorite. Could you pick a favorite? Really?

1:16:23.520 --> 1:16:30.679
<v Speaker 1>That I will not endure that favorite really no, because

1:16:30.680 --> 1:16:33.160
<v Speaker 1>it's like chat is so different than Mia Khalifa, which

1:16:33.200 --> 1:16:37.599
<v Speaker 1>is different than Katchazmachikova, which is different than Charlomagne. Everyone

1:16:37.720 --> 1:16:40.400
<v Speaker 1>has a different energy and it's like for all these

1:16:40.520 --> 1:16:44.040
<v Speaker 1>different audiences and because we're coming together with different povs

1:16:44.040 --> 1:16:46.840
<v Speaker 1>to make one beautiful POV. You know, sometimes before you

1:16:46.880 --> 1:16:50.000
<v Speaker 1>interview some better, you have a certain view of them, yes, right, yeah,

1:16:50.200 --> 1:16:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and then after you sit down you're like, Okay, that

1:16:51.960 --> 1:16:54.280
<v Speaker 1>person is completely different than I thought. Day. Where can

1:16:54.320 --> 1:16:55.960
<v Speaker 1>you give us an example of when that's happened for you?

1:16:56.360 --> 1:16:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Every single person has surprised me. I'll say about my

1:16:59.040 --> 1:17:01.400
<v Speaker 1>crew that when the Hanks interview, we do a two

1:17:01.479 --> 1:17:03.679
<v Speaker 1>parter the interview and then we do his workout app

1:17:03.800 --> 1:17:06.960
<v Speaker 1>called Hanks Fin And so for the first part of

1:17:06.960 --> 1:17:09.040
<v Speaker 1>the interview, it's so tense that he walks out and

1:17:09.120 --> 1:17:10.960
<v Speaker 1>it's pins could drop you can you don't hear anything?

1:17:11.000 --> 1:17:13.280
<v Speaker 1>It's good. He's like, really, you guys are gonna say anything.

1:17:13.320 --> 1:17:17.519
<v Speaker 1>It's quiet. And then by the Jim segment, the way

1:17:17.600 --> 1:17:20.639
<v Speaker 1>the crew turned on me in support of this famous

1:17:21.080 --> 1:17:26.800
<v Speaker 1>baby hurt and so like it's like the energy. We're

1:17:26.840 --> 1:17:29.439
<v Speaker 1>working through it together, right, and so I wouldn't say

1:17:29.479 --> 1:17:31.560
<v Speaker 1>the crew expected what they what we got out of

1:17:31.600 --> 1:17:33.720
<v Speaker 1>it together in that interview, Right, did y'all have any

1:17:33.760 --> 1:17:36.479
<v Speaker 1>problems booking people for the second season because people saw

1:17:36.560 --> 1:17:38.960
<v Speaker 1>the first season was like, oh no, I'm not going

1:17:39.000 --> 1:17:41.280
<v Speaker 1>on there. Well you tell me you're a guest. Well,

1:17:41.320 --> 1:17:43.560
<v Speaker 1>I actually felt that during the interview, I said, I

1:17:43.640 --> 1:17:45.000
<v Speaker 1>said that I would like. I didn't say that. I

1:17:45.120 --> 1:17:47.000
<v Speaker 1>literally said to her, I watched this show because I'm

1:17:47.000 --> 1:17:48.080
<v Speaker 1>a fan of it, and I said, I don't know

1:17:48.120 --> 1:17:50.360
<v Speaker 1>how they gonna get guests for the second season. Here

1:17:50.400 --> 1:17:54.679
<v Speaker 1>go on my dumbass great line. That was wild. That's wild.

1:17:55.080 --> 1:17:58.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, here's the thing. You're cool and like, I

1:17:58.320 --> 1:18:01.479
<v Speaker 1>think it's about being Why did you make that curvice?

1:18:04.720 --> 1:18:07.720
<v Speaker 1>I think that it's cool. It's cool to come onto

1:18:07.800 --> 1:18:11.240
<v Speaker 1>the show and be open and be vulnerable and like

1:18:11.520 --> 1:18:15.760
<v Speaker 1>make something together and make have an interesting conversation. That

1:18:15.960 --> 1:18:19.639
<v Speaker 1>to me is compelling. Like that to me is valuable.

1:18:19.680 --> 1:18:22.679
<v Speaker 1>You guys have interviews every day. You are the most

1:18:23.000 --> 1:18:26.479
<v Speaker 1>iconic black radio station. Like what are you talking? You

1:18:26.520 --> 1:18:29.200
<v Speaker 1>guys have a hit show for a decade, Like it's

1:18:29.280 --> 1:18:32.880
<v Speaker 1>a huge thing. And every conversation has a different energy

1:18:33.200 --> 1:18:35.800
<v Speaker 1>and has and the really good conversations have people being

1:18:35.960 --> 1:18:40.960
<v Speaker 1>honest and are you finished? Are you done? That's that's iconic.

1:18:41.600 --> 1:18:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Like that's so I'm just trying to have cool conversations

1:18:44.280 --> 1:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>and I think that what we I think the episode

1:18:46.080 --> 1:18:47.800
<v Speaker 1>is hot. So for people that don't know, what was

1:18:47.800 --> 1:18:50.280
<v Speaker 1>your breakthrough moment that got you this deal? Because there's

1:18:50.280 --> 1:18:51.519
<v Speaker 1>a lot of women out there, a lot of people

1:18:51.520 --> 1:18:53.080
<v Speaker 1>out there that want to do what you're doing, So

1:18:53.200 --> 1:18:55.320
<v Speaker 1>what was your breakthrough moment that got you in position

1:18:55.400 --> 1:18:58.800
<v Speaker 1>to get you your show? What was my big through moment? Honestly,

1:18:59.040 --> 1:19:02.080
<v Speaker 1>it takes ten years to become an overnight success. Like

1:19:02.479 --> 1:19:07.720
<v Speaker 1>mostly my issue, or rather my solution, was just continuing

1:19:07.840 --> 1:19:10.880
<v Speaker 1>to do it and taking time to focus on my

1:19:11.120 --> 1:19:14.160
<v Speaker 1>art and invest in myself. And like I was working

1:19:14.240 --> 1:19:16.680
<v Speaker 1>as a hostess and then I was like working at

1:19:16.720 --> 1:19:19.200
<v Speaker 1>a comedy as like an assistant and like you kind

1:19:19.200 --> 1:19:21.400
<v Speaker 1>of move up the rungs. But I just spent time

1:19:21.479 --> 1:19:24.400
<v Speaker 1>on being like not following any trends and trying to

1:19:24.479 --> 1:19:26.320
<v Speaker 1>be the people who are hot, but just being like

1:19:26.479 --> 1:19:29.280
<v Speaker 1>what do I like, what is my perspective? What can

1:19:29.360 --> 1:19:31.639
<v Speaker 1>I do? Endlessly where I feel like, oh, I don't

1:19:31.720 --> 1:19:34.640
<v Speaker 1>hate this. And the resolution was that I created this

1:19:34.760 --> 1:19:38.400
<v Speaker 1>like interview genre because it mixes like my love of

1:19:38.520 --> 1:19:41.960
<v Speaker 1>like Housewives and then my love of like I don't

1:19:42.000 --> 1:19:45.839
<v Speaker 1>even know, daytime television, daytime television, and news Oprah Ellen,

1:19:46.080 --> 1:19:50.000
<v Speaker 1>We just in Catti Lee, throwback, like old school even Tempest.

1:19:53.160 --> 1:19:55.840
<v Speaker 1>We love, we love, we love. So I just that's

1:19:55.880 --> 1:19:57.679
<v Speaker 1>what I grew up on. I was born in the nineties,

1:19:57.760 --> 1:20:00.679
<v Speaker 1>and so as a result, Yeah, I I made something

1:20:00.720 --> 1:20:02.920
<v Speaker 1>that I'm really proud of and I'm really happy with time.

1:20:03.320 --> 1:20:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Time is the answer. You've been in the business for

1:20:05.120 --> 1:20:07.200
<v Speaker 1>a minute, though, you were right, or you're a writer

1:20:07.240 --> 1:20:11.080
<v Speaker 1>on dr I what else? I wrote an episode of

1:20:11.120 --> 1:20:13.840
<v Speaker 1>our cartoon President. I wrote an episode of Dickinson. I

1:20:13.960 --> 1:20:20.439
<v Speaker 1>wrote for um Robin the way back in the day, okay,

1:20:20.680 --> 1:20:22.880
<v Speaker 1>and then on the end before that, and then I

1:20:23.000 --> 1:20:25.560
<v Speaker 1>was an internet comedy Central that makes sense. So you

1:20:25.640 --> 1:20:28.960
<v Speaker 1>already in the CBS Viacom family with DSA Marrow and

1:20:29.040 --> 1:20:31.000
<v Speaker 1>then what somebody saw you doing the Instagram thing. It

1:20:31.120 --> 1:20:32.719
<v Speaker 1>was like, you know what, this would be a good show.

1:20:32.880 --> 1:20:34.760
<v Speaker 1>I think, Yeah, A lot of people saw me doing

1:20:34.840 --> 1:20:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the Instagram thing, and thought that yeah before, Yeah, like,

1:20:43.120 --> 1:20:46.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm very happy we have more with z Way. That's right,

1:20:46.360 --> 1:20:48.360
<v Speaker 1>z Way. When we come back. Her show is on

1:20:48.600 --> 1:20:51.320
<v Speaker 1>tonight on Showtime. We go talk to someone when we

1:20:51.400 --> 1:20:55.639
<v Speaker 1>come back, it's the Breakfast Club, Go Morning, DJ Envy,

1:20:55.920 --> 1:20:58.760
<v Speaker 1>Angela Charlomagne, the guy we are to Breakfast Club was

1:20:58.800 --> 1:21:01.080
<v Speaker 1>still kicking it with z Way. A show is on

1:21:01.360 --> 1:21:04.920
<v Speaker 1>tonight on Showtime. When you when you had dreams of

1:21:05.000 --> 1:21:06.439
<v Speaker 1>being a talk show host, is just to kind of

1:21:06.439 --> 1:21:09.240
<v Speaker 1>show you envisions for yourself? Yes and no, honestly I

1:21:09.360 --> 1:21:12.760
<v Speaker 1>did it. I this show came about organically, So the

1:21:12.800 --> 1:21:14.679
<v Speaker 1>show could not have existed when I was dreaming about

1:21:14.720 --> 1:21:17.160
<v Speaker 1>being a talk show host because it's influenced by Eric

1:21:17.240 --> 1:21:21.120
<v Speaker 1>Andre and like zach Alafanaki Ellen and to all those people.

1:21:21.320 --> 1:21:23.920
<v Speaker 1>But um, I always wanted to talk show as a kid,

1:21:24.160 --> 1:21:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Like there's always going to be a facet of my

1:21:26.720 --> 1:21:29.479
<v Speaker 1>career that interviews people because I just love talking to you.

1:21:29.920 --> 1:21:31.680
<v Speaker 1>You seemed like a conversation list, Like you seemed like

1:21:31.720 --> 1:21:35.439
<v Speaker 1>the person that was having random conversations with people. Definitely, definitely,

1:21:35.479 --> 1:21:37.880
<v Speaker 1>I was definitely a weird person in the corner, Like, hey,

1:21:38.200 --> 1:21:48.040
<v Speaker 1>do you like Naruto? Breathing. Okay, exactly an anime joke.

1:21:48.560 --> 1:21:56.040
<v Speaker 1>That's a deep Oh make you uncultured first, okay, seem

1:21:56.120 --> 1:21:59.040
<v Speaker 1>like me? Okay. Um Ya Naruto is an animate character

1:21:59.120 --> 1:22:01.680
<v Speaker 1>who's um lovely. We were just talking about to the

1:22:01.720 --> 1:22:06.519
<v Speaker 1>other day. Sassy Santana was up here Materialsanabroch so he

1:22:06.600 --> 1:22:10.000
<v Speaker 1>was excited about the icon. Bob, I'm so thankful. I'm

1:22:10.040 --> 1:22:12.439
<v Speaker 1>so thankful to have that song in my trailer. I

1:22:12.520 --> 1:22:17.400
<v Speaker 1>think it's absolutely fresh. It's so cool everybody to everyone, Yes,

1:22:17.479 --> 1:22:20.519
<v Speaker 1>everyone's an icon because all I like about the word

1:22:20.680 --> 1:22:23.040
<v Speaker 1>icon is the icon is subjective, right, Because to some

1:22:23.160 --> 1:22:25.320
<v Speaker 1>people like Martin Luther King is an icon, but to

1:22:25.439 --> 1:22:28.719
<v Speaker 1>other people like Roberty Lee is an icon and everyone

1:22:28.760 --> 1:22:31.479
<v Speaker 1>has a different POV. And that's back to my thesis

1:22:31.920 --> 1:22:38.360
<v Speaker 1>POV POV. So do you believe they're right or wrong? Yes? Okay,

1:22:38.439 --> 1:22:43.799
<v Speaker 1>what do you think about sociopath Because it's all about perspective.

1:22:43.840 --> 1:22:47.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not committing crime because I feel like you can't

1:22:47.280 --> 1:22:50.960
<v Speaker 1>murder people, well unless unless that's what I'm saying. I

1:22:51.000 --> 1:22:53.599
<v Speaker 1>can't murder people. That's bad, and I don't if it's

1:22:54.280 --> 1:22:56.400
<v Speaker 1>what if it's in self defense, somebody trying and kill you.

1:22:57.120 --> 1:23:02.559
<v Speaker 1>Are you threatening me? He's waiting for the interviewers come out.

1:23:02.800 --> 1:23:05.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, no, no, no. Do I believe in right

1:23:05.280 --> 1:23:08.000
<v Speaker 1>or wrong objectively? Yes? I can say. I can stand

1:23:08.080 --> 1:23:10.720
<v Speaker 1>by and say I have morals, I have ethics not

1:23:10.840 --> 1:23:19.320
<v Speaker 1>to flex. Has anyone else I do? Working on my

1:23:19.479 --> 1:23:25.760
<v Speaker 1>fitness's episode, Charlomagne's episode, is we said it to y'all.

1:23:25.920 --> 1:23:33.160
<v Speaker 1>It's gretty to send it to Charlemagne that that people

1:23:33.200 --> 1:23:34.880
<v Speaker 1>might not know if anything. I mean you're going to

1:23:34.920 --> 1:23:36.599
<v Speaker 1>watch the interview and find out. But we talk. I mean,

1:23:36.680 --> 1:23:39.360
<v Speaker 1>we talk about a litany. I enjoyed it. What was it?

1:23:39.520 --> 1:23:41.800
<v Speaker 1>What was the experience like? For me? It's always a

1:23:41.800 --> 1:23:44.040
<v Speaker 1>great experience when you actually like a show. Yeah, and

1:23:44.120 --> 1:23:47.000
<v Speaker 1>then you're on the show. Yeah, and the show feels

1:23:47.080 --> 1:23:48.960
<v Speaker 1>like how when you watch? That's why I say it

1:23:48.960 --> 1:23:50.599
<v Speaker 1>in the moment, like I cannot believe I'm sitting here

1:23:50.800 --> 1:23:53.120
<v Speaker 1>getting caught up in all of these questions. He gets

1:23:53.160 --> 1:23:56.479
<v Speaker 1>caught up. But it's beautiful, it's beautiful. We talk about

1:23:56.479 --> 1:23:58.720
<v Speaker 1>black when we actually use clips from the Breakfast Club,

1:23:59.000 --> 1:24:02.840
<v Speaker 1>so we prom with the show. Yeah, because the iconic moments, Yeah,

1:24:05.479 --> 1:24:14.280
<v Speaker 1>little Mama, Hello, oh god, Monique Leonard, Hello, yeah about

1:24:14.280 --> 1:24:16.960
<v Speaker 1>the edits too though. Well at one point Charlemagne says,

1:24:17.120 --> 1:24:20.599
<v Speaker 1>please don't stop this and say Charlemagne hates Potting. She's

1:24:20.640 --> 1:24:28.439
<v Speaker 1>just asking for trouble. No comment. I watched the show.

1:24:28.680 --> 1:24:30.720
<v Speaker 1>I know that I see it. It's iconic. It's great,

1:24:30.840 --> 1:24:33.080
<v Speaker 1>Like you're gonna it's really fun. How much of the

1:24:33.360 --> 1:24:35.840
<v Speaker 1>Way character is actually you? How much is it? It's

1:24:35.880 --> 1:24:39.960
<v Speaker 1>a character, the Zebra character so rude. I would ask

1:24:40.000 --> 1:24:42.519
<v Speaker 1>as many questions in real life, like I would be

1:24:42.600 --> 1:24:44.639
<v Speaker 1>a little more like I wouldn't be so nosy. She's

1:24:44.640 --> 1:24:50.799
<v Speaker 1>a little nosy. So yeah, she's a woman about her business,

1:24:51.360 --> 1:24:54.800
<v Speaker 1>whereas z Way the person is I mean, I'm just killing,

1:24:55.640 --> 1:24:57.880
<v Speaker 1>but I bring my pur might bring my humanity to

1:24:58.000 --> 1:25:00.600
<v Speaker 1>the character, and so that makes it funny. So in

1:25:00.760 --> 1:25:04.639
<v Speaker 1>the interview, you get a real connection into the respective guests.

1:25:04.640 --> 1:25:08.200
<v Speaker 1>So Charlottagne, it's like they're really surprising moments and you've

1:25:08.240 --> 1:25:11.960
<v Speaker 1>been doing interview for decades, but there are questions that

1:25:12.000 --> 1:25:16.000
<v Speaker 1>you've never been asked before. Yeah, so it's it's just like,

1:25:16.439 --> 1:25:19.280
<v Speaker 1>so but that character. Look, I'm not sitting here being

1:25:19.360 --> 1:25:21.679
<v Speaker 1>like how many black friends do you have? Like that's

1:25:21.800 --> 1:25:25.360
<v Speaker 1>that's comedy. That's a good question. But how many you

1:25:25.400 --> 1:25:28.320
<v Speaker 1>guys asked? How many black friends I have? I don't know.

1:25:28.960 --> 1:25:30.479
