1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:01,200
Speaker 1: What's up? Family?

2
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 2: I am so excited for season eight, But before we

3
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 2: get into it, I gotta take.

4
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 1: Y'all back to be Et Media House. I had so

5
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 1: many amazing conversations, so many gems were dropped. Stay tuned.

6
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: He's coming up next.

7
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: All right, guys, Christopher Hazeler here, come in live from

8
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,120
Speaker 2: bet Media House with Keep it Positive, sweetie, and I

9
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 2: have two of your favorite ladies from Tyler Perry's sisters,

10
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 2: Mignon and Sal. I want to talk about you more

11
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 2: on a personal level, and y'all, like I said, you

12
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 2: my soul sister, you are very spiritual. You always give

13
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: all glory to God. How has that journey been growing

14
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: closer to God for you? That's something like I've seen

15
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,239
Speaker 2: you speaking out about more and more even on your platform.

16
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,160
Speaker 3: I think for me, like right now, just to be vulnerable.

17
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 3: This might be sleep deprivation, allow me to be long understanding,

18
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 3: but like just understanding that God is good. Yeah, and

19
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 3: like how simple that phrase is, but how much weight

20
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 3: it is and how much depth there is, And it

21
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 3: kind of like reminds me of that scripture. There's no height,

22
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 3: nor depth, nor angel nor demon like there is nothing

23
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 3: made that can separate us from the love of God,

24
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 3: and so we might be perplexed, we might be tossed about,

25
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 3: but we have hope and there's an anchor and that

26
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 3: is really what I'm trying to hold onto right now.

27
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 3: And I think I might be in like a stretching season,

28
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 3: like a growing season, like that transition. You know, there's

29
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 3: those moments in your life where you go from Some

30
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 3: people will say glory to glory, but I think when

31
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 3: you go from like wilderness to the promise, but you

32
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 3: remember like how they left Egypt, but then there was

33
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 3: the wilderness, yes, and then there was like the fight

34
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 3: for the promise, and then there was like there's these

35
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 3: stages like I'm in this like and you go through

36
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 3: several wildernesses in life, so likely just understanding like in

37
00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:02,120
Speaker 3: those dry spaces like the wilderness, Yeah, your shoes don't

38
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 3: wear out, come on, provides bread every day. So yeah,

39
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 3: it's dry and it's hard and it's not where you

40
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 3: want to be. And it's like I thought you told

41
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 3: me there was something else, But how long I got

42
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 3: to circle this mountain? Like where do you what am

43
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 3: I doing here?

44
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: Yeah?

45
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,800
Speaker 3: But like understanding that there are things that have to

46
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 3: die in the wilderness.

47
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: Yep, and that even that is good. Yes, right, yeah,

48
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: that is good.

49
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 3: When he's killing things off of you, when it hurts,

50
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 3: it's good. Like it was good for me that I

51
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 3: was afflicted, that I might know his ways and so

52
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 3: just understanding that all things work together for the good

53
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 3: and so if it's not good yet, then he's not done.

54
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 1: Like come on, it's just that's just where I am.

55
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 3: And I like to understanding, like, yeah, if he's a

56
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 3: good father, he's not going to give you something that

57
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 3: you don't have their strength.

58
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: To carry yet.

59
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 3: Yes, so true, because if I give a ten year

60
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 3: old a car key, they'll crash and die.

61
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: Don't want you alive?

62
00:02:58,360 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 3: Or do I want you happy?

63
00:02:59,639 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 1: Yes?

64
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.

65
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like.

66
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 3: Learning to just find them the good, truly seeing the

67
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 3: good and everything. So like practically I'm getting back into

68
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 3: like simply just journaling gratitude and like doing the.

69
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: Artist pages, I know, you know, the artists way.

70
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, stuff like that, and like marrying different modalities for

71
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 3: healing and like keeping my mind is love it sure?

72
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: Yeah so that might have been ten minutes. No, that

73
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: was good. I needed that, Yes, so good, so good.

74
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: We live in a world where health is everything, the

75
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: quote health is wealth. What brought you to the point

76
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 2: where you're like, I'm going to really make this a

77
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 2: part of my personal journey.

78
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I think it's childhood.

79
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: I think it's not being exposed to really what health

80
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: and nutrition and wellness looks like.

81
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I think we all can say as

82
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 4: a kid, we ate nothing, a lot of fast food,

83
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 4: a lot of you know, processed food, not be educated

84
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 4: about those things. And I think as I've gotten older

85
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 4: and also coming into this industry and having you know,

86
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,119
Speaker 4: and traveling the world and being more exposed to these

87
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 4: kind of.

88
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: Aligned me to it.

89
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 4: But also, you know, tomorrow is not promised. You know,

90
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,799
Speaker 4: how we treat our bodies, how we take care of ourselves,

91
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 4: like it's going to affect us when we are fifty, sixty,

92
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 4: seventy eighty years old. And I think a lot of

93
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,599
Speaker 4: people think it's like, oh, I'm getting older.

94
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: This is just supposed to happen. No, that is not.

95
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 4: Supposed to have You can be ninety years old and

96
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,279
Speaker 4: still lifting weights. You can be ninety years old and

97
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 4: still be so healthy. And that's just kind of how

98
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 4: I live my life. So I did all the certifications

99
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 4: I could do because I just wanted to really understand

100
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 4: what it means to age and understand what.

101
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 1: It means to feel good.

102
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 4: You know, you don't have to if you eat something

103
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 4: and you don't feel good, look at that.

104
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: Why your stomach is bloated? Okay, what did you just eat?

105
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 5: You know?

106
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,039
Speaker 1: But people like they'll just keep eating it. Yeah, this

107
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: is just normal. No, it's not you. You have to

108
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 1: eat every once in a while. Yeah, she gave me

109
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: the tea code, right, She's like, if you really want

110
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: to do it, I'm not telling you what to do.

111
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 1: But I was like, you know, and don't get me wrong.

112
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:28,600
Speaker 4: I will get I will eat my in and out,

113
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 4: I will eat my fat burger.

114
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 1: I will I will do it. But it's the balance.

115
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, however long we're going to be here, don't you

116
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 4: want to?

117
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: Like I want to feel good absolutely, and that for me.

118
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 4: And also I like making people feel good. Yes, I

119
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 4: love the helping people work out, and I'm pushing you,

120
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 4: like you can do it.

121

Speaker 1: It's hard, but you can do it.

122

Speaker 4: And you're going to feel amazing afterwards.

123
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 2: I love that I have none other than the candy

124
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 2: birds can what's up?

125
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: How does it feel coming back every single year?

126
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 6: I think for me, the more mature I get, it's

127
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 6: more thankful I get, because, like you know, longevity is

128
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,960
Speaker 6: not it's not given, you know what I mean, It's

129
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 6: not automatic, Like everybody don't are not able to continue

130
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 6: to be in this space, right, So I'm just thankful

131
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 6: for it.

132
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, speaking of longevity, how have you been able to

133
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: continue to keep your career going?

134
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 1: Because, like you said, a lot of people who started

135
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: off where you started are not where you are and

136
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 1: you have literally just skyrocketed.

137
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 6: I think it's just being constantly open and constantly reinvented

138
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 6: myself and not always caring about being the person in

139
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 6: the front, you know what I mean. It's like I

140
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 6: don't mind being behind the scenes or I'll be in

141
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 6: front whatever the job takes. I mean, if I'm needed,

142
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 6: it's talent. I can be talent if I need. If

143
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 6: I'm the one that's needed to help facilitate and get

144
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 6: everybody together, and then.

145
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: I can do that too.

146
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 6: You know, I think some people let their ego get

147
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 6: into way and only want to be upfront. But it's

148
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 6: kind of like the way the world in entertainment works

149
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 6: is like you can be super super hot one minute

150
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 6: and then next minute, ain't nobody checking for what you're doing?

151
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's.

152
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 6: Gotta be cool with you know, like playing different roles

153
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 6: until it shows your time to jump back in.

154
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 2: Kind of like double that right right exactly. Kiss family,

155
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 2: I'm here live from the Beet Media House. But one

176
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 8: may have a misunderstanding of what this can be. Yes,

177
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 8: and also being you know, putting yourself in isolation to

178
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 8: a certain extent to where it doesn't have to bother you,

179
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 8: and knowing who your real family is. Everything that grant

180
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 8: ain't your friend, you know, and you got to carry

181
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 8: that mentality open into the industry and just you know,

182
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 8: make sure that you keep the people who are with

183
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 8: you at the beginning and try to keep them around

184
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 8: you, you know, try to keep them close.

185
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,760

187
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,600

188
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 2: of my friends.

189
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, and I found peace in the isolation.

190
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, it ain't nothing wrong with especially when you got

191
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 8: the people around you who want around you. And everything

192
00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 8: else is a job, you know, and then sometimes people

193
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 8: in the job become your friends and family.

194
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,280

259
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,319

00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 9: It's going great.

270
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 12: I think, you know, by the grace of God, I'm

271
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 12: able to explain it in a way that people are

272
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 12: able to receive the message and understand the importance of

273
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,720
Speaker 12: prioritiz in your mental health because a lot of times,

274
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,080
Speaker 12: like I said before in the interview, that we did

275
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 12: like people, you know, it's explained to us in such

276
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,400
Speaker 12: a way that it's kind of like it makes it

277
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 12: like it's kind of hard to make it practical, but

278
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,600
Speaker 12: I try to break it down to make it practical,

279
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 12: and I feel like people receive it pretty well, so.

280
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: You do such a good job with that.

281
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you do, and you've reached so many people. Like

282
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 2: at my live show, I got so many people called

283
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 2: me afterwards. I was like, oh my god, he blew

284
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 2: me away. And I'm like, the kid is just brilliant. Wow,

285
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 2: I call you a kid, but you're he's a man.

286
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 9: No, no, no, I appreciate you far.

287
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: You're brilliant.

288
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 2: I'm just like, you blew me away when people are

289
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,959
Speaker 2: calling like, oh my god, and that Divinci like every

290
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 2: conversation you came up.

291
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: Wow, like yeah, you're so good.

292
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 2: That that speaks to who you are because you can

293
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,079
Speaker 2: touch so many different people, like from all age ranges.

294
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's huge because a lot of people can't. They

295
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 1: have like one little demographic. They right, exactly, you have

296
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:51,040
Speaker 1: such a wide range.

297
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 9: Exactly. No, I appreciate that, No, for sure.

298
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 1: Something that we share in comment that we talked about

299
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: is our faith. I always want to tap into that

300
00:12:58,600 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: anytime I can.

301
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 2: How is that going for you and is there anything

302
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 2: that you can share with someone who may be feeling

303
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,079
Speaker 2: down on a look and just not really feeling it

304
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:05,560
Speaker 2: right now?

305
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 12: I would say, if you believe in the Bible, which

306
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 12: which I do. I think you just got to understand

307
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 12: that and know that it's a good fight. You know,

308
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 12: the walk walking with Christ is probably one of the

309
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 12: hardest walks you can make. But just know that you're

310
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 12: not You're not alone. And I think in the end

311
00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 12: not I think, I know in the end it's all

312
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 12: going to pay off. But but yeah, just just fight

313
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 12: the good fight and just allow the Holy Spirit to

314
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 12: be letting you into your life.

315
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:34,559
Speaker 9: I think a lot of.

316
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 12: Times we were building doors unmannokest like we don't we're

317
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 12: not aware that we're building doors to block out good

318
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 12: stuff in our life.

319
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 9: So just try to be more mindful.

320
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 12: I think pray for discernment and areas that you might

321
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 12: be blocking God off that you don't realize you're doing it,

322
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 12: because there's a lot of ways we could be doing that,

323
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,439
Speaker 12: and I think it alleviates some of the suffering.

324
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: That's so good. I love it. I love you, man, No,

384
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:42,320

00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 9: That's right.

390
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 13: The slow burns, I think that's just been kind of

391
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 13: my testimony. In my career, really like everything has been

392
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 13: like a delayed gratification, you know.

393
00:15:58,320 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 4: What I mean.

394
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 7: In the moment, it be like I was, and then

395
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,400
Speaker 7: you're like, oh man.

396
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,920
Speaker 13: Looking back, brou you're a legend, right, thank you agend.

397
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 13: Like I'm still still young, you know what I mean.

398
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 13: So it's cool still writing my story.

399
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: I love that.

400
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 2: I love that you said delayed gratification. I feel like

401
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: that has been my life story. Yeah, and a lot

402
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 2: of times it's really just God like ordering the sets

403
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 2: and ordaining things.

404
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: So when you get to that point where it feels

405
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: like you're delayed, you're right on time.

406
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 13: Yep, you perfect, You relax, you ain't going too crazy.

407
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 13: I think I think famous fame shouldn't hit somebody too fast,

408
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 13: you know what I'm saying. I think it's it's it's

409
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 13: detrimental for anybody.

410
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 9: I agree.

411
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 13: So I definitely thank God for protecting us on our

412
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 13: way to what we're doing, because I feel like, if

413
00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 13: you want to have a career, careers is a slow burn.

414
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 9: You know, you could be the most popping.

415
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 13: Guy whatever or popping girl, but a career is what

416
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 13: we really want, you know what I mean. Like, and

417
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 13: it doesn't mean you're always gonna be that that person,

418
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 13: you know, but you always gonna have that longevity in career.

419
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 9: So that's that's what we.

420
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 2: Want I have with me, Jay Murphy, you are really

421
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 2: big on using your guy give gifts. Tell me how

00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 2: some of the gifts that you realized that you had.

424
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,000
Speaker 11: Well, I think back to what we were just saying

425
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 11: as far as just DC wake you up. I think

426
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 11: my experience, my undergrad experience at Howard, really opened up

427
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 11: my eyes on what I wanted to do. I just

428
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 11: didn't know how I wanted to do it. But in

429
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 11: that moment, I figured out as a college boy, what

430
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:25,600
Speaker 11: I wanted to do.

431
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:26,040
Speaker 1: And so.

432
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 11: The very first thing that I started doing, I started

433
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 11: as a host. And so I used to host things

434
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 11: all on campus, all the student body, Smart or homecoming,

435
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 11: red Life, you know, or with ESPN U would come.

436
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 9: Film the game.

437
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 11: I'll be doing a pep rally, so you know, even

438
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 11: freshman orientation. I was a part of an organization called

439
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 11: campus Bous and so like yeah, I became like the

440
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,400
Speaker 11: face of the student body behind the microphone day your.

441
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 9: Boy across have out the side and the guy Rilla.

442
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 9: I started hosting step shows.

443
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 1: He was like, listen, listen, We're gonna do it.

444
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 3: We're gonna get it done.

445
00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: Period.

446
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 11: Yes, I started hosting step shows. So after I crossed

447
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 11: capital to my LB was like me lying to DJ,

448
00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 11: you just did. I was like, nah, I got my cane,

449
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,359
Speaker 11: I got my mic I'm cool. I love he started

450
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 11: learning out DJ. I just ain't telling nobody listen. So

451
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 11: by the time I got out this is a crazy story.

452
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 11: This is actually how I got to La real quick.

453
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 11: I graduated in May twenty twelve, right, so at that

454
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 11: time I was still working in the city doing night

455
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 11: life as well, and I was also working at Radio one,

456
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 11: working at three point nine. So I would go back

457
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 11: to Virginia to do certain gigs and stuff, open up

458
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 11: concerts just to host that. At that time, I'm still

459
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 11: learning how to DJ, but it's just under the radar.

460
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: I love that. Yes, that's the story.

461
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 11: And I got hit up to do Kendrick Lamar's first

462
00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:00,520

464
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,280
Speaker 1: That's huge. So last shot of Howard, I'm fired up.

465
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,040
Speaker 11: I'm like, I'm gonna just put myself on this tour.

466
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,480
Speaker 9: I'm gonna figure that out.

467
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 11: Block make a long story short. The first the first

468
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,040

Speaker 11: Second show was at the National and Richmond Wow. And

470
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 11: I ended up doing twenty three days on that tour.

471
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 1: So you had to kill it.

Speaker 11: sure I could host and I could detail.

489
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:08,720

Speaker 1: I got it fun for writing it. It was man,

629
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: crazy crazy, crazy wow. Because music was your life.

630
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 5: Music, by the way, it still is. It's just I

631
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 5: have a different relationship with it. I think the relationship

632
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,199
Speaker 5: that I have with it is the relationship necessary for

633
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 5: mental health because if you love it and music is

634
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 5: going through this transition period where now it's like it's

635
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 5: not even valued. It's like, just get somebody ten hours

636
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,400
Speaker 5: a month. You can have every song in the world

637
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 5: that's made. So I think they're kind of treating music

638
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 5: like it's like background noise. And I'm not a background artist.

639
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 5: You know that about me. We're not background over here.

640
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,439
Speaker 1: So you know, I started the podcast doing pretty good.

641
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:50,560
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the podcast. Ray Daniels presents The God Show.

642
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 5: I so what I did was I created like a network.

643
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 5: So so I have the God Show, which is why

644
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 5: I interview people. I have an Artist Spotlight for upcoming

645
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 5: artist because artists still want to talk to me. I

646
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 5: have Best Debatable because I like to argue. You know

647
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 5: that about men. I love arguing. And then the last

648
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 5: one I got is the Radar Report, which is doing

649
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 5: the best right now because it's just me giving people

650
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 5: my personality. So I'm watching the podcast World Change, you

651
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 5: know what I'm talking about, Like it's like streaming is

652
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 5: becoming relevant. Like it's not about interviews, it's about you.

653
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 7: I want to know who you are.

654
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 5: So once you start understanding that is like you got

655
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 5: to give the world more you.

656
00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: The people want to see you.

657
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,040
Speaker 2: Well you notice that with my episodes, I can interview

658
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 2: some of the most amazing, fascinating people.

659
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 1: But when you get in front of that mic, they're

660
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 1: there for you.

661
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 5: Because the thing that I had to figure out is that,

662
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 5: let's say about artist on promo, right, and they do

663
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,679
Speaker 5: fifty interviews in the market, like your interview is just

664
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 5: one to fifty, so it makes you different. So for me,

665
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,000
Speaker 5: it was like and what I noticed that you notice

666
00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 5: about me? Like when I interview, ice Cube, ll COOJ,

667
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,439
Speaker 5: all these guys. After the interview, they all said the

668
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,160
Speaker 5: same thing to me, I just want to.

669
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 9: Talk to you.

670
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 10: Wow.

671
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 5: I'm like, you know who I am. It was like, bro,

672
00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,400
Speaker 5: you spit the game. So I'm like, but the audience

673
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:00,880
Speaker 5: is like, we don't want to hear you. We want

674
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:01,360
Speaker 5: to hear them.

675
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know what, I don't get y'all.

676
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: And then I'm gonna talk my s over here. So

677
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,119
Speaker 1: that's what I'm doing right now. So let's go. I

678
00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 1: love by the way I'm just saying with you.

679
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 5: It's like, you know, they see you acting and they

680
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,239
Speaker 5: see this, and then it's like they see you in

681
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 5: this character they fall in love with that, but now

682
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,000
Speaker 5: they get to see the real person, and the real

683
00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 5: person has always been a sweetheart. Like That's what It's

684
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 5: weird that when I see you famous, because I don't

685
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 5: see you as famous yet, like you're such like I

686
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:27,800

687
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:30,399
Speaker 5: could cook, Like Ray, I could cook, you don't know,

688
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 5: and I'm like, you can't cook.

689
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 1: You can't cook.

690
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 5: I'm like, you're pretty ass, can't cook?

Speaker 5: I get down, Yes, exactly what you said, you about

693
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 5: to say it with me, right, and you cook for it.

694
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,400

Speaker 1: Literally a lot of people.

699
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 2: Didn't believe me in that time, you know, so to

700
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,320
Speaker 2: come to somebody and you just see me for.

701
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 5: Who I am, I can't believe Ayin. But by the way,

702
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 5: it's another thing. It's something about virgos in your life.

703
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 5: I'm a virgo.

704
00:28:58,240 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 9: A virgo.

705
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 5: It's crazy, And I thought I always thought about that

706
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 5: because you wasn't thirsty for you, wasn't trying. He saw

707
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 5: it in you like you're saying with me. It wasn't

708
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 5: like you was trying to put me on. You were

709
00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 5: just hanging out every day. It was like we cut

710
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 5: a song on you. I'm putting you because you want

711
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 5: to empower the people who do it right, and most

712
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 5: of the time they empower the wrong people and then

713
00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 5: we get the wrong out coming in with mad.

714
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 9: But like you got a thing with virgos, and we'll

715
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 9: let you know that.

716
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 14: Dude.

717
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I am sitting here with the beautiful, big, gorgeous

718
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 2: joy Taylor. Do you have a podcast, Yeah, too personal?

719
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 2: So we're I have a pod. This is my podcast

720
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 2: if I was a sweety. But like, it was so

721
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 2: funny because in the beginning I was like, I don't

722
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 2: want to talk about my personal stuff, and your show

723
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 2: is actually called it too personal?

724
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,040
Speaker 1: How did you come up with that topic?

725
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 17: Well, because he wanted to, you know, share, I think

726
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 17: like you do, you know, you know doing your show

727
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 17: that the real thing that like connects us all is.

728
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 1: When we are vulnerable and when we.

729
00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 17: Maybe tell things about ourselves that are a little and

730
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:05,160
Speaker 17: or that the internet might hold on to forever, but

731
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 17: it reaches people in different ways, and you know, I

732
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 17: try to be as authentic as I can with Also,

733
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 17: obviously I'm sure you're this way as well. You have

734
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 17: things in your private life that you hold sacred absolutely.

735
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 17: But I think, especially like in the times that we're in,

736
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 17: we're all dealing with a lot, and it's kind of

737
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 17: nice to see that it's hard, you know, like we

738
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 17: don't all have it all together all the time. I

739
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 17: was talking about it this week. Yeah, I don't even

740
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 17: know what it looks like. I was talking about this

741
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 17: week that I'm really dealing with trying to remain empathetic,

742
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 17: like I'm very angry about a lot of things that

743
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 17: I feel like I have a right to be angry about.

744
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 17: But I'm also like it's hard every day the two

745
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,880
Speaker 17: most powerful women in the world are fighting on social

746
00:30:54,920 --> 00:31:00,720
Speaker 17: media like children, We've got ice pulling people off the streets.

747
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 17: We've got gender wars, and the men are lonely. Like

748
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,960
Speaker 17: it's always something. It's like, can we have a day?

749
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 17: Can we get a day?

750
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: It's a day? Can we get one day? Yes?

751
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 17: So you know, I'm it's it's And everyone didn't like that.

752
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 17: They're like, well, you're angry, Like, yeah, I am angry.

753
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 17: I'm angry. I am angry about a lot of things.

754
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 17: And it's now that's not cute, but it's true.

755
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 1: It's the truth.

756
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 2: And I mean, I feel like we're human and you

757
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 2: have to feel all those emotions, and a lot of

758
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 2: times we try to brust things under the rug or

759
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 2: be like I'm not feeling that. No you are, and

760
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 2: that's okay. You know you have to feel it so

761
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 2: you can get to the other side of it. Yes,

762
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 2: that's how I look at it.

763
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,800
Speaker 17: Yeah, I mean feeling emotions like we all kind of

764
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 17: have to. I mean, managing your emotions and being an

765
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 17: emotionally disciplined person is just a part of being an adult.

766
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: Like you don't you.

767
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 17: Don't get to just crash out right, you want to know,

768
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 17: but it's it's a balance of saying attached to your

769
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 17: emotions while also moving through this very difficult, very intense,

770
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 17: very very you know negative world. Like negativity is what sells,

771
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:09,480
Speaker 17: it's what gets the chitter chatter yep. Positivity can be

772
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 17: you know, searched for, but some of our most core

773
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,560
Speaker 17: memories are overshadowed by the negative ones and the traumatic ones.

774
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 17: Like we just I think we feel we feel those

775
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 17: emotions more intensely, and sometimes that when we're happy or

776
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 17: we're at peace, there's, at least for me, there's like

777
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 17: this looming thing of like this is only temporary, but

778
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,719
Speaker 17: when something bad is happening, it's like this will be forever.

779
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: Right, Why do we do that everything is going to pass?

780
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 1: That's real? Yeah, that is so true.

781
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 2: That's why I name this podcast Keep It Positive Sweetly

782
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 2: because there is so much negativity in the world, and

783
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 2: I'm so intentional about not using clickbait to make it

784
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 2: because a lot of people take like one thing you

785
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 2: say and twist.

Speaker 2: So how are you balancing being a family man and

820
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:13,799
Speaker 2: working in this industry?

821
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 14: That's an incredible question. It's really just taking it day

822
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 14: by day. It's kind of hard to pinpoint the balance

823
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 14: because I'm living it in real time, you know what

824
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 14: I mean.

825
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:27,640
Speaker 7: But I always think it's interesting.

826
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 14: Like my daughter, So I've been nominated for three Grammys,

827
00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 14: every single Grammy Award, which has been back to back.

828
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 14: My daughter has come with me. She thinks that this

829
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 14: is a yearly thing. Now she doesn't understand it's connected

830
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 14: too if I get a nomination for something. So I

831
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,600
Speaker 14: think stuff like that for me is it keeps me

832
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 14: grounded because it's so funny because we're you know, at

833
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 14: the Grammy's on the carpet, all dressed up, and then

834
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,080
Speaker 14: it's like, by the end of the night, you're back

835
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 14: home like none of this ever happened. So I think

836
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 14: I keep those moments and those experiences with me just

837
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:03,560
Speaker 14: to remind me of you know what I mean, the

838
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 14: full scope of life and the human experience really
