38
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: greats when it comes to comedy. And I did this

39
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: show on Facebook called Mastery of Comedy where I really

40
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 1: wanted to help like up and coming comics kind of

41
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: just get together a set that was flawless, right, And

42
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: so you were one of the four mentors. I think

00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: it was done out rollings. It was Ada Rodriguez, it

44
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: was you, and it was Carlos Miller and for those comedians,

45
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: it was like epic for them. But it was also

46
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: during the pandemic when nobody was really filming things in person,

47
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: no one.

48
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 3: Had money for when one was working.

49
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I wanted to put a little bit of

50
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: money in people's you know, pocket too, because I know

51
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: things like things like that help. And so I do

52
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,400

53
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: was like, you really think we can get him, but

54
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: you know, it was a little slow for people.

55
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 3: Doing that.

00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 2: say to cool enough, like, hey, we do a thing

113
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: with some of the couples and come to the thing.

114
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 2: But it really was a beautiful conversation to have with them,

115
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 2: just about the concept of sex parties and what people

116
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,280
Speaker 2: look for when you go to one. My is you

117
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 2: with the invite was that they don't tell you who

118
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 2: else is gonna be there. You just got it.

119
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 4: It's like, well, that's how sex parties are though, that's

120
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 4: you don't know who's gonna be there.

Speaker 2: That's fucked up. I can't get like a.

122
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 3: I mean, you don't have to have sex with everyone there.

123
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 3: You have sex with the people you want to have

124
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 3: sex with.

125
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,200

Speaker 2: we're only talking five possibles. Two of them gonna be men.

128
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,119
Speaker 1: So you can't have his wife.

00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 3: Sometimes dangerous fun.

Speaker 2: People absolutely fun.

141
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 3: Yeah. Is that called the cook is when they watch?

142
00:05:58,360 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 3: That's where you know.

143
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: Because that's what isn't he going to be watching?

00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:03,840
Speaker 2: He's gonna know A little.

145
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 3: Part is not as fun.

146
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 4: He's saying the fact that you hide in somebody's closet

147
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 4: is the fun part.

148
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 2: But no, they were, but for what they do and

149
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 2: I'm not knocking anybody that's on that, because at the

150
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 2: end of the day, that's what the special about. I'm

151
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 2: just talking about connection and the fact we're not connected

152
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 2: as people and there's still pockets of people that still

153
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 2: care enough to build community. Even if it is sucking

154
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:27,520
Speaker 2: and fucking for a week.

155
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: And have that's a community.

156
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: It's still community, good community, And so I'll take you

157
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 2: where for it, one at a time. Just the idea though,

158
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 2: of figuring out a way to be connected with people

159
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 2: and just finding people that are into whatever it is

160
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,279
Speaker 2: you into and just doing that. I think for too long,

161
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: we try too hard to hang on to friends who

162
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 2: no longer serve us because we got roots. So what

163
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 2: have y'all been friends ten fifteen years? If you've grown apart,

164
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 2: you're grown to part and you have to find that

165
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 2: next person or that next group of people that feeds you,

166
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 2: because you got to be running with people that's on

167
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 2: the same stuff that you're on, and if you're not,

168
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 2: you're doing yourself a disservice.

169
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 1: So that's the title Lonely Flowers we were talking about.

170
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 3: I was wondering what the title I.

171
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: Told that came out like I think it's about like

172
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,640
Speaker 1: connection and how we're missing different connections also, but you

173
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: can explain it.

174
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 2: You see a flower by itself, it looks weird like

175
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 2: a rose and concrete, like they say, But when you

176
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 2: put a bunch of flowers together, it's a beautiful bouquet

177
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 2: and they look like they all belong.

178
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I never thought about that, and I think.

179
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 2: The society is that like like this flower versus this

180
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 2: whole bouquet like that, that's beautiful. That's like, oh, what's

181
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 2: wrong with your motherfucker?

182
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 1: You look said, but somebody gives you one rose, like

183
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: you clearly didn't spend enough money to bring me a

184
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: whole dozen, don't you?

185
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 2: Don't you? But that's a woman doll like that? Or

186
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 2: you don't want that single rose from the lady in

187
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: the club. It's weird, right, Lady's how they do it

188
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: down south of it to a Mexican lady in Houston.

189
00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: Lady, Well, without giving away too much of the special,

190
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 1: you did touch on a couple of things you of

191
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: course touched on, and it was very funny how you

192
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: addressed the daily showing your mom.

193
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: And that's a true story.

194
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 3: It was.

195
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: That's a true story because here's the thing man.

196
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,840
Speaker 3: When also my mom's name was also Joyce.

197
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 2: Oh my mom. Ye black people, Florida. I tell you

198
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 2: something about black families, man, Black families know when you're

199
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 2: about to hit the lick because because because what happened,

200
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 2: the way went down, Trevor Trevor Noah resigns, right, and

201
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 2: then they do guest hosts for a year.

202
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm one.

203
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 2: Of the guest hosts and you know, stuff's moving and

204
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 2: there my name's in the hat.

205
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 1: I said on the air. I was like, worrybo Junia

206
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: is the only person I could see, Like, that's a

207
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: smooth transition.

208
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 3: Everybody likes. You want to show everyone.

209
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: I was like, that's a natural. What's about to happen.

210
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 2: It ain't happened, and that's fine. But what what I

211
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: told my mom at the time, we was like we

212
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 2: was parking watching each other. Ain't gonna even lie. I was,

213
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 2: you know, they're supposed to decide on this host in

214
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 2: a couple of weeks. You know, how much left on

215
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 2: your house. That's what I call my mom. I call

216
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 2: my mile. How much left on your house? Like it's time, Joys,

217
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 2: you're finna get your ship paid off. And then I

218
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 2: found out they wasn't they wasn't gonna rock with me

219
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 2: like that. I called my mama back and I'm like, yeah,

220
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 2: you need to go back to work together.

221
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 3: George put it in two weeks because take it back.

222
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 2: I paid off the Lincoln though I got linking money.

223
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: Okay, well that's but I do. But I never want

224
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: to take away from the fact that it has to

225
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: be hard when people are like we just said, everybody

226
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: thought that was it. That's a shoe in I feel,

227
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,240
Speaker 1: you know, and that can't be easy for you when

228
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: you're also probably thinking, Okay, everyone's saying it, it's a.

229
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 4: Natural, even like people were printing it, like people were

230
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 4: saying it in printing everything.

231
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 2: But I mean, you know, you're black in this country.

232
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 2: You gotta know it ain't nothing guaranteed.

233
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 1: That's the fact. And so until you have that contract

234
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: in front of you signed and.

235
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 2: Be told they shot whole movies if they ain't released, right,

236
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So I didn't seen people

237
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 2: get cast on TV shows and then they get recast

238
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 2: before the show even get released. Until it's on air,

239
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 2: it ain't real. So you know, I'm blessed enough to

240
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:10,200
Speaker 2: have failed enough to not be surprised by anything in

241
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 2: this industry, right, you know? I you know I did

242
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 2: you know how radio is? Radio cutthroat? I got fired.

243
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 2: I found out I got fired on Twitter when I

244
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 2: left Birmingham. I've been at that station ten twelve years.

245
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 2: But that's the game, you know. I ain't mad about it.

246
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: I had. I was on a sitcom on TBS. We

247
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 2: had a season four guaranteed on the Handshake. Boy quit

248
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 2: the network the next day. The new dude came in,

249
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 2: canceled everything but Conan O'Brien. So that's the game. And

250
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,599
Speaker 2: you literally eating a celebratory stak the night before, just

251
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 2: waiting on your PDF to come through so you can

252
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 2: docu sign. Hey the contracts in click the significant next day. Hey,

253
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 2: sorry about that. It ain't gonna happen. He's changing up

254
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: everything so you can look like you in the in

255
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,439
Speaker 2: the driver's seat to have something. But I think ultimately,

256
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 2: when Trevor Noah put in his resignation he was still

257
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 2: at the show that whole year where he was still there,

258
00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 2: I was like, Shit, what I'm gonna do now? What's

259
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 2: next for me? Maybe I need to figure it out?

260
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 2: And then the more I looked at it, the more

261
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,559
Speaker 2: it just seemed like going into an election year. If

262
00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 2: there's ever a time to build something else for myself,

263
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 2: leave now, and you know, thankfully got the Saturday Night

264
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,559
Speaker 2: jokes on CNN. Now, so what have I got news

265
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 2: for you? That was a blessing to come down. But

266
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 2: I don't think that that's something I could even been

267
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: able to receive had I not already taken the leap

268
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: away from the Daily Show. Yeah, sometimes you got to

269
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 2: take that step away to get to the.

270
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,440
Speaker 1: Next because you get comfortable right in a position, and

271
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 1: so sometimes it is like something has to happen to

272
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 1: kind of push you to say, okay, let me get

273
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 1: out of my comfort zone.

274
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 2: And you have to approach every job knowing that it

275
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 2: is a lease unless you work for yourself. Whatever job

276
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 2: you have, it is temporary, right even in death, it's temporary.

277
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:04,760
Speaker 2: So sooner or later, my time at this show will conclude.

278
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 2: Do should I leave now and have some control over

279
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 2: how I land?

280
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,959
Speaker 3: Or so you wait till they let you go.

281
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 2: You want to get pushed out the plane, you want

282
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 2: to jump out the plane. Sooner or later you leave

283
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 2: in the plane. I chose to jump, and then I

284
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 2: figure i'll have a better sense of how to land.

285
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 2: You know, this Hulu special is a byproduct of that,

286
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 2: because as soon as I left the Daily Show, I

287
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 2: don't know for sure that somebody else is gonna rock

288
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 2: with me and let me host something. The shit we

289
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 2: do in at CNN is literally the only new new

290
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 2: satire show to come out.

291
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: I'm so gladly they announced it because I needed something like.

292
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,000
Speaker 2: And God bless them, they let us cut a fool

293
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 2: on Saturday nights. The ratings reflected. I can't talk about

294
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 2: the other six days. I know y'all got a lot

295
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 2: of issues. All I can tell you is Saturday night

296
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 2: at nine o'clock we act in a donkey. But to

297
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 2: go and have the time now to sit and do

298
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 2: stand up on a regular basis. I've sold a book

299
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 2: that's coming out at the end of the year. I've

300
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 2: sold three TV shows. All of this motion happened after

301
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 2: I jumped out the plane, right so to me, the

302
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 2: idea of regretting it or should you have stayed?

303
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: And I don't believe in regrets. I mean, you know,

304
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,679
Speaker 1: I left the breakfast club to come here and start

305
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: my own You understand it. Yeah, And sometimes you do

306
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: have to put yourself in different positions. You know. They

307
00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: always say it's like the thirty three Strategies of war,

308
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: kind of put your back up against the wall and

309
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: fight your way through it and something amazing can happen.

310
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,200
Speaker 1: But I do always try to prepare for if something

311
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: doesn't work out, let me make sure I have other things.

312
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 2: Oh, I put eight pots on the stone. Yeah, I

313
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 2: see immediately. It's then I'm working on podcasts to the book.

314
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 2: It's called A Man and MANI fathers. It's about so

315
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 2: my pops died when I was sixteen, and the book

316
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 2: is about the lessons I learned from other men through

317
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 2: my life from then till now. Because you know, I

318
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 2: have a son he's eight. So the idea of what

319
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 2: values am I going to instill in him? Well, where

320
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 2: did I get those values from? And they weren't all

321
00:13:57,720 --> 00:13:59,760
Speaker 2: from my dad, you know. So it could be something

322
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 2: that's profound as love and life, and it could be

323
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 2: something as deep as don't snitch and shut your ass up.

324
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 3: Nice. It's gonna be an audio.

325
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can read some of the mother Figers.

326
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: You haven't just saying that because he can't read and

327
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: he wants to do the audio, but.

328
00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: He's fair though some audio books, you'll get an audio

329
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 2: book from your favorite celeb, and then.

330
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 3: I know one that's bad. I won't say on air,

331
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 3: I'll say it off air, but it's beautiful life.

332
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 2: They have an amazing story to tell. But then they

333
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: get him in that booth flavor chopped one.

334
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:35,160

00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 2: It was there.

336
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 4: But after we air that, I would let y'all know

337
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:40,920

00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 3: to read. They can't pronounce the word that was written down.

340
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: What you just say because they won't make people want

00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,040

348
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 2: ain't together yet, but that's the next pot we're putting

349
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 2: on the stove. As soon as we get through this

350
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 2: Hulu promotion and that and that pot, simme it down,

351
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,600

352
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 2: put something new on that. So it's all about just

353
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 2: if you look at where media is going, and it's

354
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,840

356
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 2: not just about solely working for one company. You have

357
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 2: opportunities to build your own networks and empires for yourself

358
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 2: and reach people. And so you know, I want that.

Speaker 2: I want that. I want that money too. I want

360
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 2: it all.

00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: And you deserve it. And I feel like I think

362
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: once people see this too when I tell you so funny,

363
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 1: Like I said, I just got the screener and I

364
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 1: watched it twice already, and I know when it comes

365
00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: out on Hulu, I'm gonna end up watching it again.

366
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,440

00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 2: I am. I'm one addiction away from really making it.

385
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 3: You get druged at the sex party.

386
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: Now, listen, we keep talking about this. When we first

387
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: started the conversation, before we even got on the air,

388
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: I said to you, I really relate to your special,

389
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 1: like certain things you talked about, and you said, you're

390
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: the sex party. I said, no, that is not what

391
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 1: I was talking about, which is crazy. Sorry, I have

392
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: a podcast called lip service, but you know I've never

393
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 1: been to a sex party.

394
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 2: When you when the special, the more I started putting

395
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,120
Speaker 2: them interior together. It's just about connection and the fact

396
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 2: that we don't talk and interact no more. And so

397
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,399
Speaker 2: you just started looking at where in the world do

398
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 2: we not talk no more than we used to talk?

399
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,360
Speaker 2: And the number one spot is retail. Right, you don't

400
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 2: talk no more like the cashier used to be your

401
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 2: one fake ass friend. That's a nice Oh, that's scarf,

402
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 2: it's lift and now that's self checkout. So now you

403
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,560
Speaker 2: got to argue with some asshole who mad because you

404
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,560
Speaker 2: don't know how to scan stuff. I don't work here, right, And.

405
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 1: Then you have to keep calling them over because it's like,

406
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: please call the cashier over to and then they have

407
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: to put your code in.

408
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 3: Please roll their eyes like I didn't, I didn't clock in.

409
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know. And then the boxes

410
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 2: they put the QR code next to the barcode. So

411
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,360
Speaker 2: the machine scanned the QR and go, you didn't scan

412
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 2: it right, scan it again, or.

413
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,679
Speaker 1: If you don't, put it in the area where the

414
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:01,159
Speaker 1: bag is.

415
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I.

416
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 2: Just think that. But I think the employees have attitudes

417
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:11,439
Speaker 2: because they ain't they're not appreciated by their bosses. So

418
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 2: a lot of it, it's not even their fault. We're

419

00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 2: they hire prisoners to work fast food I worked. Yeah,

Speaker 2: sounds like a lot of words. Now.

544
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: I want to ask you this because we talked about

545
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 1: this earlier today. Somebody called in what was it was

546
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: it for? Ask ye? She was complaining because her boyfriend

00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: has terrible halotosis and she doesn't know how to talk

548
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 1: they've been again a ten years. It's a recent thing.

549
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,480
Speaker 1: She set him up an appointment for the dentist. He's

550
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: canceled it three times. She said his breath is so

551
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,880
Speaker 1: bad she won't even let him perform oral sex on her. Right.

552
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:41,399
Speaker 1: So this was the conversation. First, I want to hear

553
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 1: your advice. And then I have another question.

554
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 2: Are we sure that her coochie ain't the cause of

555
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 2: the well?

556
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: He ain't been down there? How are you gonna blame her? See,

557
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: that's such a man thing to do.

558
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 2: And I'm just saying, the bacteria get up in there

559
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,359
Speaker 2: if he floss, like on some real ship though, that

560
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 2: bad breath could be a precursor to diabetes. And yeah, yeah,

561
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,720
Speaker 2: like on some real legit internal health issues. It might

562
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,919
Speaker 2: not even be brush your teeth. You need to go

563
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 2: get his blood run. Yeah, so you know she needs

564
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 2: to try and get him on some Let's go take

565
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,440
Speaker 2: an STD test and then but I don't know. I

566
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 2: ain't no nigga. Ten years, he ain't gonna agree to

567
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 2: blood work. I might have gave you herpees, but I

568
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 2: really want you to check a cholesterol.

569
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: Uh, I'm saying because the people would have a stink.

570
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,399
Speaker 2: Know what I'm saying. When they do, when they when

571
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 2: they take your blood for like an STD, they can

572
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 2: run it for everything else under the sun, from cancer,

573
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,440
Speaker 2: the cholesterol and you know all of that other ship.

574
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 2: So maybe you get him in for some blood. Maybe

575
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 2: play it like a health I'm concerned for your health, right,

576
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 2: that's what we said. That's exactly what. Yes, but just

577
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,120
Speaker 2: a fixed show. This is a turn off to me. Okay,

578
00:24:58,560 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're a big dude, but I

579
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:01,959
Speaker 2: bet you I bet money and diabetes.

580
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: Right, it could because they said gastro intestinal issues. Well,

581
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,239
Speaker 1: the second part of this is I did ask her

582
00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: if she has a name for her vagina, so she

583
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: named her vagina Crystal. And so my question is this

584
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: because I feel like do men name their I thought

585
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:17,800
Speaker 1: men name their penis.

586
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 3: I don't think they do.

587
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: No, that meat like me, that's some South.

588
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 3: I mean meat. Yeah, I don't think dudes named the dicks.

589
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 3: I don't think that's the thing.

590
00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 2: If you could name it that dick at meat, that's

591
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 2: just weird to have a name and an identity and

592
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:43,760
Speaker 2: a personality.

593
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 4: That's just also it was weird you name it something

594
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 4: and then it don't live up to what you name

595
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 4: it now you look kind of goofy, or.

596
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 1: If one of your friends happens to have the same name.

597
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think men, I don't know. I ain't never

598
00:25:58,119 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 2: know no man to do that, Like I ain't ever

599
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 2: on the dude who named his dick and then told

600
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 2: his friends about it. I do think we name the

601
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:06,199
Speaker 2: places where we have set like come step into the office,

602
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 2: so you need to you need to come see me

603
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 2: like a supervisor.

604
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: Like you talk about it like that sounds more like

605
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: you're playing like a little bit.

606
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 2: A little bit of role play. But I think that's

607
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 2: more of a you know, yeah, we need, we need

608
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:25,879
Speaker 2: some time, We need some time. I don't know. I

609
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 2: don't even know if men even talk about that. It

610
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 2: is a question like all these women making money off

611
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 2: only fans, right, like a million a month? Two million?

612
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:37,239
Speaker 1: Killing it?

613
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 2: Okay, why don't And maybe this might be.

614
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: Different than your work men go crazy?

615
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 2: Do gay men admit to others, admit to their friends

616
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 2: that they're on only fans? As a straight man, I

617
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 2: don't know a single man who is on only fans.

618
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 2: I ain't never had a homeboy go hate fellers. Yeah,

619
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 2: we'll check out defeat to day look at the feet.

620
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 3: You know.

621
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 4: I think that is the stigma for only fans straight

622
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 4: man is if a straight man's making money on only fans,

623
00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 4: he's making it from gay man.

624
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 2: No, I'm talking about it's a customer. Somebody is cutomer.

625
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,959
Speaker 4: It's I got what you're saying that that they agree

626
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 4: that they subscribe to other.

627
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: I know we've had rappers on here who have said

628
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 1: that they've been disappointed, like what they subscribe to somebody's

629
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 1: and it doesn't live up to.

630
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 3: The hype order.

631
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, like they.

632
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,880
Speaker 2: Said that to you. Yeah, they say that to their

633
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 2: homeboy man. You know who Only fans I don't like,

634
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,760
Speaker 2: Like I've never and I'm trying to understand why man

635
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 2: ain't more open about.

636
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 4: It, because I think that's how straight man, because gay

637
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:39,880
Speaker 4: did to talk about it all the time.

638
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 2: I just think that's how you help to normalize this culture.

639
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 2: Only fans is normal. Like anytime you hear somebody like

640
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,800
Speaker 2: admit I've started and only fans because it's not working

641
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 2: out for me a way of like, no.

642
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: People are like to save my home. Young lady from

643
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,159
Speaker 1: family matters. She started and she made like almost a

644
00:27:58,200 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 1: million dollars.

645
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 3: In the it's a lot of work. Like people think,

646
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,479
Speaker 3: only fans isn't a job, you got it, It's a

647
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 3: lot of work.

648
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 1: I will say this. I could see like starting an

649
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 1: only fans and then people will come on just out

650
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 1: of curiosity, putting nothing on there, and then just go away.

651
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:15,159
Speaker 2: And I'm just saying, God blessed the women. God blessed

652
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,120
Speaker 2: women for making their money. You're safe, it's legal. But

653
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 2: I just I don't know, no man who will admit that.

654
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 2: I just I don't know. Maybe I just roll.

655
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: Well, maybe you should be the first person to talk

656
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 1: about you don't subscribe.

657
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 2: I would not. I would not get an only fan.

658
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 2: You can search my phone apps right now.

659

661
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 3: What if Okay, let me ask you a question. What if?

662
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 2: What if you're high school only fans? What you get? ESPN?

663
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: Wait? What is the X videos? But I love the

664
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: fact that we both still go to media takeout. Yeah

665
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: for me to take us gonna come out up here

666
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: to a month and do like some of the time, listen.

667
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 2: I am well informed from MSNBC all the way to

668
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 2: media takeout. I gotta know what's going on around the world.

669
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: What do you think about Canada joining the US?

670
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 2: Yo? This administration. This is about to be the wildest

671
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 2: first one hundred days. I'm so administration. This boy then

672
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 2: said that he is gonna turn Canada into the fifty

673
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 2: first state, the whole state mine you. Canada got nine

674
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 2: ten provinces, each of them could be their own, twelve states,

675
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 2: the whole state of Canada. Said he gonna buy a

676
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 2: green whole country, said he gonna buy the Panama, gonna

677
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 2: send the military, might send the military down. Hasn't ruled

678
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 2: out sending the military to take over the Panama Canal,

679
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 2: to go for Mexico's now to go for America?

680
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 3: Is he playing risk?

681
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 2: I don't know. This boy ain't done nothing but took

682
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 2: over the country, got sworn in, and now he just

683
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 2: claiming shit off emminent domain.

684
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean this is yeah. I wonder what people

685
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: are thinking now, if anybody bod he has regret yet,

686
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: or if they're going to have to wait and see.

687
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 3: I think when eggs don't go down and gas don't

688
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 3: go down, I.

689
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 1: Think that is I can't guarantee that the price is

690
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 1: going to go down on anything.

691
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that what's gonna happen is you'll start

692
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 2: seeing the ripple effects of legitimate, regular American suffering under

693
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 2: some of these policies. And when that happens, you just

694
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: got you can't yell at them. You gotta hold their

695
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 2: hand and just go let me explain to you why.

696
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 2: Because if somebody's suffering, now you for sure got their

697
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 2: undivided attention. Whereas the last eight years, it's been four

698
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 2: years of Trump's my guy, and then the Democrats wouldn't

699
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: help him, and then it was four years of Biden

700
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 2: and Trump supporters going, well, Biden is then Hunter's own crack.

701
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 2: So now this is your dude, He's got enough smart people.

702
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 2: Really scares me about this administration is that you got

703
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 2: Trump standing next to a bunch of billionaires and you

704
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 2: can't and I can't tell who's using who, right, And

705
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 2: if it's the billionaires using him, then God help us.

706
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 2: So the idea idea of figuring out how to connect

707
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 2: with your families and like people that are close to

708
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 2: you that have supported Trump, you can go, ah, but

709
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,479
Speaker 2: that's not going to help commit terms. You got it. Like,

710
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 2: I think this last election showed you just how few

711
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 2: people know how government works, and so now you got

712
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 2: to walk and show this is when they passed this policy,

713
00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 2: this is why this happened. Okay, now get your ass

714
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 2: out my face. We're not cool, but I want you

715
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 2: to understand this particular policy. And I think that's that's

716
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 2: what we got to look at. The other thing we

717
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 2: got to be sharp about, especially black folks, man is

718
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 2: helping our family members with disinformation, because this shit about

719
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 2: to get real crazy now.

720
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: With Meta now saying that they are not going to

721
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: fact check anymore X already doesn't. Can you talk to

722
00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: us about that?

723
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 2: A little bit means community notes. Hey, if you say

724
00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: something crazy, we'll leave it to the other motherfuckers to say, hey,

725
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 2: that was crazy, instead of instead of Facebook just deleting

726
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 2: your post and going, hey you talking crazy, motherfucker, you

727
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,239
Speaker 2: can't say that. Other people have to come under that

728
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 2: and say that you're talking crazy.

729
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 3: And you can just those comments.

730
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 2: And we all know how much Americans trust other Americans

731
00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 2: in the comments and believe them anything.

732
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: People will quote that as facts.

733
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 2: So even me correcting your weird posts doesn't necessarily mean

734
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: that I'm correct. So it's we are set up to

735
00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 2: be disinformed for the next four years. And so where

736
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 2: you get your information from it cannot be from one

737
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 2: place you've got you don't trust the media. You do

738
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,719
Speaker 2: trust them and trust them. It can't all be podcasts.

739
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 2: I ain't saying it got to be from one of

740
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 2: the MSNBC or US off at CNN. But you gotta

741
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 2: mix a match. You can. If all of your news

742
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 2: is coming from a bunch of motherfuckers on a couch,

743
00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:56,800
Speaker 2: or if all your news is coming from too motherfucker's

744
00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: sitting at a clear desk, you're not fully inform. You

745
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 2: gotta be careful about misconstruing opinions as facts. You gotta

746
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 2: get your I feel like anything that feels factual. It's

747
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 2: two people. That's the most people. That's why, Like the

748
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 2: local news is two motherfuckers. It ain't no eight people

749
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 2: all it ain't right when it's a round table, you know,

750
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 2: it's cross talking is arguing. You don't need five people

751
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 2: with five microphones to tell you facts, right, you need

752
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 2: one or two You talk while I take a simple water,

753
00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 2: and then it's my turn to say some news, and

754
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 2: then you take a simple water. Like I think that's

755
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 2: where media has gone where because opinions are profitable. I

756
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 2: understand it. It's engagement, but you got to be far

757
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,960
Speaker 2: more intentional in seeking out the truth. And it's not

758
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 2: gonna be easy, and it might not even be free

759
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,680
Speaker 2: because half the shit is behind a firewall.

760
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 1: Oh I can't stand it. Every time I'm trying to

761
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,400
Speaker 1: look at a great article, like let me look at

762
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,600
Speaker 1: the Washington Post or the LA Times, and then it's

763
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: matter free. You have to subscribe.

764
00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 2: Yes, this algorithm up. Yeah, Los Angeles is burning and

765
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 2: some of the events cuation routes on a fucking fucking firewall.

766
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, we do have a website that you can go

767
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 1: to that you can actually see all these for free.

768
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 2: So it's so you have to be informed and you

769
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 2: have to be able to send that to people. Man.

770
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 2: So I mean, you know, I just feel like if

771
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,960
Speaker 2: you got if you got relatives that you know only

772
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 2: get their information from one pool, just send them a clip.

773
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 2: Don't send them no full episode. Anybody gonna listen to

774
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 2: a full episode or some ship that they right.

775
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 1: I feel like also though, the other issue I have

776
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,240
Speaker 1: is that you can find a clip to support anything

777
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 1: that you think, Like I could send one of my

778
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 1: family members of clip and then they'll send back another

779
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: clip from another you know, I'll send them something from CNN,

780
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 1: and then they'll send me something from Fox.

781
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 2: What I found that's worked really well with my family.

782
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say the podcasters, but if you can

783
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,280
Speaker 2: catch a podcaster or that they love, that's a guest

784
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 2: on a podcast that you love, Oh.

785
00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 3: That's a great yeah, because that's that's a really good point.

786
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because it's essentially the person that they love

787
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 2: of its taking them on the journey into the other side,

788
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 2: to the other the other part of it. But that's

789
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 2: on you to do the work to actually look and

790
00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 2: see what's going on. But at the federal level, I

791
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 2: don't know what we're gonna be, but I know state

792
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 2: and local there's still opportunities to be active and be

793
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 2: a part of programs that helped to affect change where

794
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 2: you live. And I think that's what we got to

795
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,720
Speaker 2: like revert into right now.

796
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 1: Now, did you have to deal with congestion pricing to

797
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 1: get here today.

798
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:32,160
Speaker 2: Or no, No I didn't. I'm training all day.

799
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 1: Train now because I feel like it. Somebody put up

800
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 1: this video where it looked like the train was ridiculously

801
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: packed after congestion. Is that a true thing?

802
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 3: I was on the train here and it was fun.

803
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 2: It was, But to be fair, that first week of

804
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 2: congestion pricing, it was a lot of snow and it

805
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 2: was like the weather wasn't great.

806
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,879
Speaker 1: Digit yeah, yeah, because I usually will take the train

807
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,799
Speaker 1: to work. But because I saw that clip, I was like,

808
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,799
Speaker 1: let me drive in until things calm down a little,

809
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: because I was like, maybe everybody he's just on the tain.

810
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,399
Speaker 2: What it feels like was it was it better driving? Yeah?

811
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,759
Speaker 1: That took me the exact same amount of time and

812
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 1: I just had to pay now.

813
00:36:07,080 --> 00:36:10,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's that's that's not gonna fly. That's not

814
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,759
Speaker 2: gonna fly for a long ass time. I sold my

815
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 2: when I moved here, I sold my car. That was

816
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 2: the first thing I saw.

817
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: Oh really yeah.

818
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 2: I didn't want a fool.

819
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: See that's why I Kim didn't even know about the

820
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: congestion pricing. I was like, I told my car, Yeah, yeah,

821
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: nobody wants to have a car. You sold your car

822
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 1: to my producer.

823
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:26,840
Speaker 2: I sold it.

824
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I sold it.

825
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 2: And you know that congestion pricing too. They're hitting you

826
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,320
Speaker 2: for thirteen if you ain't got the little.

827
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,799
Speaker 1: The easy past little Yeah.

828
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you pay more just for not having that.

829
00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 3: That's how they find a parking in New York in general.

830
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:41,240
Speaker 1: Just you got to parking a lot during the day.

831
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 3: It's not worth it.

832
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: The light over here is what thirty dollars and that's

833
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 1: like the deal when you get there early. But a

834
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:50,560
Speaker 1: good So you don't even have a car, so that

835
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,720
Speaker 1: doesn't affect you have to leave that alone.

836
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 2: I got a bike that no more people be getting.

837
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 1: Hit on the flip side of things. Do you think

838
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:04,200
Speaker 1: sometimes like as you're doing these uh as you're working

839
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: on CNN on your show there on, have I got

840
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: news for you? Sometimes some of the stories are so ridiculous?

841
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 1: But do you also feel like we're like a joke

842
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:13,719
Speaker 1: to other countries? Because I know sometimes people will say

843
00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 1: that they're like America feels like to other people outside

844
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: of this country, they're like, what is going on? And

845
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: I saw you were in London talking to people, so.

846
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 2: I can say, this is somebody from Alabama. So I'm

847
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 2: prefacing when you leave America other countries talk to you

848
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 2: the way people here talk to me about being from Alabama.

849
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 3: I get that because I grew up in Florida. I

850
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:43,280
Speaker 3: really get that.

851
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 2: And I could never go there because.

852
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 4: When I lived when I lived in La from Florida,

853
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 4: people always like because everything the Florida man, Florida man,

854
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:53,280
Speaker 4: a guy to go from brook was born in Brooklyn,

855
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 4: but I grew up.

856
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 3: I got that a lot. I could be in Florida.

857
00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:01,839
Speaker 3: Yeah that's a great I can do that. Yeah.

858
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 2: I mean the Klan ain't out there chasing us own

859
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:11,720
Speaker 2: horses yet we don't see. But you know, it's still

860
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 2: it's still some pockets a decent. But like whether you

861
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,760
Speaker 2: want to or not, when you leave America, you become

862
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 2: the damn PR spokesperson for the country immediately. Well, I

863
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 2: just want you to all to note that not all Americans,

864
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 2: and actually Kamala it was not a landslide. Kamala was

865
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 2: actually within four points of the margins. And there's a

866
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 2: lot of people that don't stand up.

867
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 3: We don't have eight dinners, we just have wonner.

868
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 2: I just be like, man, I get on stage when

869
00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:39,400
Speaker 2: I'm in London or Canada, somewhere from America. It is

870
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:40,919
Speaker 2: what it is. I want to talk about.

871
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 1: Let's move on from.

872
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 2: I'm not going to defend this country. I'm here. I

873
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 2: care about I care about Birmingham. I care about Alabama,

874
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 2: you know, so I try to tend to that field

875
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,960
Speaker 2: for the most part. But I can't explain this whole country.

876
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 2: All I can do is vote and then and have

877
00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 2: my vote remixed by the Electoral College.

878
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: That's it now. You also went viral New Year's Eve

879
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 1: in a very hilarious moments that went so viral, but

880
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: it was so true.

881
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 2: But you know, I wasn't trying, like you know me

882
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:19,560
Speaker 2: enough to know that I wasn't, like you.

883
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:23,240
Speaker 1: Said, some real Look, they offered you something tequila because.

884
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:29,759
Speaker 2: Of down and you make that perfectly clear. And I

885
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 2: feel like most black people understood. There were a couple

886
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,400
Speaker 2: of that's not what it was.

887
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 1: First of all, you're not even a snarky person.

888
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 2: I love a dolomit. But like the thing was, they

889
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,280
Speaker 2: were drinks for people. And see it, they was drinking

Speaker 2: on New Year's Eve, and and.

891
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,719
Speaker 1: They always drink, that's what they do, right, Well, they

892
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 1: did one year where they wouldn't let them remember, and

893
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:55,160
Speaker 1: it was drinks, and.

894
00:39:55,120 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 2: So they brought back to drinking. So they they're doing

895
00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 2: they passing tequila shots around and everybody drinking out. You

00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,480
