We'd like to welcome 0:01:02.480 --> 0:01:05.600 everyone to another episode the Games the Chronicles podcast and 0:01:05.680 --> 0:01:09.440 not with My Dog. Yeah, but we got a special 0:01:09.480 --> 0:01:12.560 guest co host, my Man from the Holding Court podcast. 0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:16.400 Resident you know, filling in all the time. Of course 0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:18.160 you haven't been to show a couple of times already, 0:01:18.400 --> 0:01:21.080 Big court. What's up, bro? What's going on with your homie? 0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:24.560 Was cracking? Oh man, You know what, sometimes we have 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:27.640 conversations that are funds. Sometimes we have to have conversations 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:30.679 to the serious. And uh, it was something I wanted 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.360 to discuss that. I wanted to have a conversation about AIDS. 0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:39.600 H V still impacts the African American and Hispanic community 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:43.800 disproportionately to everyone else. We're right ahead of transgenders though 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:49.120 we've actually I think moved ahead of homosexuals, right, you know. 0:01:50.160 --> 0:01:52.520 And I wanted to have a conversation about it because 0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.360 me and James did an episode with a guy that 0:01:56.480 --> 0:01:59.360 was a former pimp and he thought AIDS was non existing. 0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:01.640 He said, they didn't. You're there, yea, not say it, bro, No, 0:02:01.840 --> 0:02:05.320 there's no cure for hip. I said, they have ways 0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:08.840 to put people in remission, but it's still they're killing people. Yeah, 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.400 for sure. So you know, since I do feel it's 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:13.799 a duty man for us not to just be talking here. 0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:16.120 So I feel that we have to discuss things sometimes 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.360 to give information to people because it may just save 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:24.360 somebody's life. Right for sure. It has spread it like 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:28.079 what the motorcycle said, there's a lot of people out 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:33.520 there that's catching it, you know, riding motorcycles. So you 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:37.640 know everybody that riding motorcycle, damn they get you know, 0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:42.160 they picked a choice of a woman. A lot of 0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:46.679 those guys don't tell you or that female that they 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.080 has the hip b because the first thing, and this 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:52.480 is what was told to me, Why would I tell 0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:56.960 somebody I got it? And then now to isolated from 0:02:57.080 --> 0:03:00.320 the bite setting people are funk with so they won't 0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:03.399 tell you they got it, and they move around as 0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:08.200 if they don't have Wow, that's the danger in it. 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:10.840 You know a lot of people got it but won't 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:14.600 say ship and they fucking and then go home to 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:21.720 their wife or girlfriend and keep it pushing. Yeah, go ahead, No, 0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:25.680 that's what I'm saying. So, you know, how can you 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:31.240 control something or get controlled of something that nobody's gonna 0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:33.680 even disclose to you that they got it or whatever. 0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:36.560 They just keep and they continue to give it to 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:39.320 other people, you know, and pretend like they ain't never 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:43.520 had it. You can't do that, And that's crazy because 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:46.720 I mean in this day and age, you know, with 0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:50.440 the advancements of medication, you know, it's really not the 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.000 stigma attached to it, you know what I'm saying. So, 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:55.600 you know, you know, back in the in the eighties 0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:57.520 and in the nineties, you know, of course it was 0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:01.200 always um, it was kind of attached. It always had 0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:04.680 the thing of being a gay disease, you know. But nowadays, 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.800 I would think that someone wouldn't wouldn't need to feel 0:04:07.840 --> 0:04:10.880 like that, you know what I'm saying, because it's so commonplace. 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:14.720 But at the same time, you know, I think that 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:17.679 I don't know, like you said, the media, the mainstream media, 0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:21.440 they've been very mum about HIV and age. Uh they haven't. 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:23.360 They had a whole lot, you know what I'm saying, 0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.040 it's not And I think, like I said before, maybe 0:04:26.080 --> 0:04:30.520 the advancement of of medication, because now they can they 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:32.680 have medication where it can be suppressed, to where it 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:36.200 can't be detected in your blood. You know, you can't, 0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:38.680 you know, they have medications where you don't transmit it. 0:04:38.720 --> 0:04:42.159 So I think people have probably become very laxed. Uh, 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:44.200 you know, in terms of the fear of it, the 0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:47.520 phobia isn't there. I guess of catching it. I'm guessing, 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:52.760 you know, because living in Las Vegas, you're going to 0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:57.839 strip you got prostitutes. We already know that age is 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:02.560 real big and biggest. But you got tourists that come 0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:06.520 out there and they solicit m and they don't give 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:10.400 a funk if longer she fine, and got the kiddies 0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:15.320 and whatever they solicit, So they don't think about taking 0:05:15.360 --> 0:05:18.560 that chance that one night, that one weekend, and then 0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:21.480 go back home wherever the funk they come from, and 0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:24.200 then bam, this is how we spread this ship. So 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:30.359 ain't nobody taking the proper precautions to say, if I 0:05:30.480 --> 0:05:33.760 do funk around this is I'm gonna make sure I'm good. 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:36.919 Ain't nobody doing that? And and that's a part of 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:39.400 the accountability too, because a lot of people don't know 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:42.320 their status is a lot of people are loose with 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:45.320 themselves and they don't get check ups, and they don't 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:48.000 force their partners to get check up even even just 0:05:48.120 --> 0:05:51.640 pass some some prostitution, just casual encounters, you know what 0:05:51.680 --> 0:05:54.240 I mean, like bolk. Don't they not on it like 0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:56.680 they used to be, which you know, I mean, I 0:05:56.680 --> 0:06:00.000 don't know, we still as as a culture or disproate 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:02.919 ortionately affected by it. And then two, I think what 0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:07.640 contributes to that is the the phenomena of downlow men. 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:10.760 You know what I mean, you know, men jumping the fence. 0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.599 I think that you know, and and not to to 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:17.479 to relegated to just being engage disease. But at the 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.320 same time, you know, I mean, the science is there. 0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:23.960 You know, vaginal sex is less risky than ain't no sex. 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:26.800 I mean, and you took the words right out of 0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.560 my mouth, Court, where I was gonna read black men 0:06:29.600 --> 0:06:32.160 who have sex with men m S M and women 0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:34.560 but who do not identify as KAY or disclosed that 0:06:34.640 --> 0:06:38.040 by six with activities. Two main female partners also known 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:40.800 as mental download have been sighted as the main reason 0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:45.120 for the increased HVP infections and black women mhm. And 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:48.960 it's scary. It's alarmly scary. I'm gonna tell you something. See, 0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:52.479 you got to remember we had two big incidents in 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:55.640 our generation. Court. I'm I'm older than you, right, and 0:06:55.720 --> 0:06:57.560 me and James. You know, I'm like kind of in 0:06:57.600 --> 0:07:00.440 between both of you guys. Right, So we had when 0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:03.320 Maxi Johnson had it that many people really take a 0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:05.280 look at it. But then when Eric caught it, when 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:08.160 easy He got it, it really made the African American 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:10.480 community start looking at saying, man, you know what this 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:13.960 stuff is real because Eric wasn't gay, he wasn't homosexual man, 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:18.320 and he caught it right right those days. And I 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:20.840 know you can remember when you go and get a 0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:23.880 blood transfusion. A lot of people was catching it then. 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:28.360 But then when I was in prison eighty six, eight, seven, 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:33.320 eighty eight, you had men messing with men. You you see, 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:37.800 maybe every other month they will come and see him 0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:40.120 c and snatch your ass out that sealed in these 0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:44.080 white suits and take your ass to Tino. A lot 0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:48.640 of those gay, those guys would come home and go 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:52.720 home to their wives, roll home to their wives, not 0:07:52.880 --> 0:07:55.960 telling oh I got rolled up because they thought I 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:58.840 had a job v or I got it, so yeah, 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:04.200 and those guys came home continuing to funk with men 0:08:05.480 --> 0:08:10.040 on the down though. So you know, it's just it's 0:08:10.080 --> 0:08:15.840 how people don't care about life because once you get it, 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:18.880 you don't give a funk about nobody else because if 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:22.280 you did, you wouldn't have sex no more. So it 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:25.880 was just NonStop. So it was a lot of things 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:31.679 that contribute to you know, the deals and the cats 0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:34.280 getting out of prison going home to their wives. This 0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.880 is how a lot of the black women were catching 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:41.280 HIV because they men were coming home and and and 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:44.199 and making love to him. You know what I'm saying. 0:08:44.400 --> 0:08:47.960 Some men was coming home having ain'tal sex and doing 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.840 all this other ship because they enjoyed that ship in prison. 0:08:52.240 --> 0:08:54.079 Trust me, I know a lot of motherfucker's had it. 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:56.600 Let me let me ask you something, James, this is 0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:59.640 kind of off the subject. Yes, they no, being that 0:08:59.760 --> 0:09:03.880 you're in prison. Um, do you think that those guys 0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:06.040 that you're talking about where they gave for the state 0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:08.240 or do you think they was gay before they even 0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:09.960 went in there, you know what I'm saying? Or is 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.079 that something they picked up in prison? And you mean 0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:15.240 just said okay, I'm with this ship now. Well normally 0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:20.160 you would say a guy with fifteen to life soon 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:23.520 or later he's gonna turn that way. But it's not true. 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.480 You had guys in there with life, have been in 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:30.360 there twenty years. They never touched the punk, you know, 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.679 So it was just you know, some cats gotta have 0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:37.200 sex or feel like they needed or whatever, so they 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:40.600 went to a man. You know, some of them punks 0:09:40.679 --> 0:09:43.640 was in there straight with it. You know what I'm saying, 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:46.520 that had the little little lots only chest and ship 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:52.319 and they started being silly and the next thing, you know, 0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:56.000 they turned out or they just had it in them already. 0:09:56.360 --> 0:10:00.800 So you know, it varies. But you know, a lot 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:03.840 of cash that that went that way, they come home 0:10:03.880 --> 0:10:06.920 that way. You know what I'm saying, ain't no going 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.880 back to the straight narrow. It was from cashing there. Yeah, 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:15.360 I'll poke the pump. Yeah I ain't gay. And you 0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:18.360 know what, I knew some dudes on that same time too, 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:21.320 like they you know, I remember a dude that I 0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.319 grew up with. He tried to say that because he 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:27.600 wasn't the one being bent over, you know, because he 0:10:27.679 --> 0:10:30.679 was the one getting head somehow another you know, he 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:34.400 wasn't gay. He's very much gay, That's what I said, 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:36.319 you know what I mean. But he tried to rationalize 0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:38.520 it like it was some type of prison understanding. But 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:41.680 you know, but what I take umbrage with, I take 0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:44.280 umbrage with like I don't care what grown people do. 0:10:44.360 --> 0:10:46.200 You know, and you just said, probably what they do 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:49.560 in their bedroom is whatever. But I think it's irresponsible 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:51.680 when you have someone like live your truth. You know, 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.240 I don't really believe I'm not gonna say I don't 0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:56.920 believe in bisexuality because I don't want to offend anyone. 0:10:56.960 --> 0:10:59.120 But at the same time, I think that if that's 0:10:59.160 --> 0:11:01.160 what you do, didn't do that. I think when you 0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:04.760 jump the fence, that's what creates the problem where you 0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:07.680 see these numbers skyrocket, you know, because again we're talking 0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.559 about antal sex just you know, not to be uh 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:13.600 graphic or nothing like that, but I mean it is 0:11:13.640 --> 0:11:16.000 what it is, you know. So the risk the risk 0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:21.800 factor of being becoming infected, uh, you know, it raises substantially, 0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:23.400 you know what I mean. And then they come back 0:11:23.440 --> 0:11:26.880 over to black women. And that's how we have black women. 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:32.240 I believe being you know, disproportionately affected. You is. I 0:11:32.240 --> 0:11:35.800 don't mean to cut job North, but you got black 0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:38.400 man with white men, you know. So it's in the 0:11:38.480 --> 0:11:41.240 racial it's it's not just black men going to black 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:45.120 women or black men. I've seen the black dude with 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:49.640 the Asian dude and they was actually on the bench kissing. 0:11:50.080 --> 0:11:55.600 So today in this society, it's open, it's all out 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:57.480 those you see it on TV, you see it in 0:11:57.520 --> 0:12:01.160 the cartoons, you see it on the dog swim. It's everywhere. 0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:05.040 So what are they tell me it's okay to promote, 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:09.440 you know what I'm saying, So taking it out to closet, 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:13.360 it's gone. Being in the closet is gone. So I 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:15.760 think you make it hard for us to raise our 0:12:15.920 --> 0:12:19.839 kids because you don't want them to watch TV. You 0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.480 gotta make them close their eyes when you see this ship. 0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:27.000 Don't go to Magic Mountain up Disneyland and you see 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:30.079 him walking and hugging and all of that ship. So 0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:32.960 you can't you can't really go out in the public 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:36.160 now because you see it everywhere, you know what I'm saying, 0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:41.240 And like you said earlier, they have medication that makes 0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:45.520 you think that it's okay to go that route. And 0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:47.920 then I think it's not being like like norm said, 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:50.480 it's it's not being talked about like it was back 0:12:50.520 --> 0:12:52.240 in the day, you know what I'm saying. Like I 0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:54.880 can remember when Easy died. When Easy died, I was 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:57.360 it was ninety five. I just graduated high school, and 0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:01.640 I can remember feeling are all outsided by the by 0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:04.160 the just the fact that somebody that was like me, 0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:06.960 somebody in the hood, somebody in my culture was infected. 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:09.920 Because to be very honest with you, bro, I never 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:14.240 had any type of education or conversations about HIV and 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:17.960 AGED before that, so there was nothing in school. There 0:13:18.120 --> 0:13:21.080 was nothing that that I saw promote, Like I was 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.200 ignorant to the fact where I thought that it was. 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:26.199 It was just the gay disease. I mean, because that's 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:28.439 kind of how they marketed it back then, you know 0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:30.640 what I mean, that was the information was out there. 0:13:30.920 --> 0:13:33.320 But when easy got it, it was like, oh, ship, 0:13:33.440 --> 0:13:36.160 that ship in the hood. And then you know, it 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:38.040 was like all of a sudden, it was like, yeah, 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:40.120 it's been in the hood, and then by that time 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:42.839 it was too late. But I almost wonder if it's 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:46.520 some type of conspiracy, the fact that it's not promoted 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:49.120 and it's not you know, they promote the medications. You 0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:52.640 see the medications on TV with the gay couple, like, oh, 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:54.920 you know, almost like you know, we already know you 0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:57.520 got this ship, so here's what you do to live 0:13:57.559 --> 0:14:00.360 a long life. But I think the prevention, you know, 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:03.120 the prevention is always the best cure. And I think 0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:07.120 that that lack of of of of talking about it 0:14:07.160 --> 0:14:10.440 and still promoting it, that it's very much prevalent, you know, 0:14:10.559 --> 0:14:13.520 that ship becomes more recudescent in the culture. You know 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:15.720 what I'm saying. I think that's why numbers continue to 0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:18.680 climb where they should be declining at this point. You know. 0:14:19.200 --> 0:14:22.240 But it is like nobody talks about it. Bro, and 0:14:22.360 --> 0:14:24.640 I don't know what it is about the black community. 0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:27.440 We just have a tendency to where we see things there, 0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:30.760 but we just decide not to address it because oh, well, 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:33.440 it's not going to pack me. We kind of um 0:14:33.760 --> 0:14:37.040 put this false sense of security around ourselves and think, oh, 0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:38.760 that has never happened to me, and no one and 0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:40.800 I love I don't have no gay people. But it's 0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:43.680 not a gay disease. It's a disease. Is that anybody 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:50.760 can kiss? Well, yeah, responsibility. If I had hip V 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:54.240 I have to take it upon myself to be responsible 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:58.760 not to pass it. Ain't nobody taking incredibility for the 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.920 ship that they know got it. But I don't want 0:15:01.920 --> 0:15:05.800 to say nothing like I said earlier, if if people 0:15:05.960 --> 0:15:08.640 know you haven't, people ain't gonna want to shake your hand, 0:15:08.880 --> 0:15:11.520 They ain't gonna give you that death and they don't. 0:15:11.520 --> 0:15:15.080 Nobody want to feel isolated from the world people like 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:17.480 that anymore. I don't think it's like that anymore. I 0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:21.720 think I think it's usually it's usually just because you know, 0:15:21.760 --> 0:15:24.280 when people are trying to find love, if trying to 0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:27.840 have a relationship is probably one of them difficult conversations. 0:15:27.880 --> 0:15:30.200 But I don't think Pete. I don't know that people 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:32.240 are ignorant and they're doing what they were doing in 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:34.680 the Haighties anymore. You know, at least they shouldn't be. 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:38.520 I wouldn't think that they were. I can see people 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:41.320 from James generation kind of still being like that because 0:15:41.800 --> 0:15:44.680 they were never really educated on it like that anyway. 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:47.280 And it's still less stigma months a lot of older men, 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:50.080 especially black and Hispanic men, that you know what, oh 0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:51.800 he got that stuff. I don't want to be wrong. 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:53.280 If I don't want to drink out of this glass, 0:15:53.320 --> 0:15:54.840 I might you know, he drunk out the cup through 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:58.000 the glass, away German sheets, he leaves, you know. So 0:15:58.560 --> 0:16:01.800 it's still that same type of thing because people aren't educated, 0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.120 they don't educate themselves. You have to think about it. 0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:07.120 When the whole thing came out Easy and Magic Johnson, 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:09.160 there was a push for a minute to educate people. 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:12.040 They were passing out condoms and this's and that's all 0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:15.880 responsibility as parents to still talk to our kids about 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:18.200 those things. I talked to all of my boys, both 0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:20.200 of my boys and my daughter. I talked to him, Hey, 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:22.400 that you know about this disease. It's still out there, 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:25.560 do you know? So you have to ask your partner. 0:16:26.280 --> 0:16:27.920 And there was a thing I saw when I was 0:16:27.960 --> 0:16:30.160 in school, and they had to sign up in the 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:33.360 wall for every person that you sleep with, you slept 0:16:33.400 --> 0:16:35.120 with the person they slept with, and they showed these 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:38.000 two people, but it showed all these bodies behind each 0:16:38.040 --> 0:16:40.440 of them, and I thought about how profound that was. 0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:43.080 I said, Wow, that he is true. So you have 0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:45.480 to have a partner if you don't know their history. Man, 0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:48.360 if you got me suspects about it, you know, if 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:52.440 you suspect any type of in any type of way 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:55.920 that this dude might be kind of, you know, help 0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:57.920 to forget if he's sleeping with other dudes. If he 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:02.280 don't buy it. The whole bunch of girls like you 0:17:02.400 --> 0:17:04.520 gotta ask about the history. Have you ever had a 0:17:04.560 --> 0:17:07.720 disease before? Have you ever had even as far, have 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:12.600 you ever had lamilia or or um? And remember, brother, things, 0:17:12.840 --> 0:17:15.480 it's easier to saying. It's easier to saying because they 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:18.360 can say no norm like I was telling you, bro 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:24.199 on the motorcycle set of today, the bike set, you 0:17:24.320 --> 0:17:29.760 have young people, not no old motherfucker's you have young people. 0:17:29.800 --> 0:17:35.399 I did. That's that's that's that has HIV. Now, however 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:40.560 they're controlling it or whatever is one thing, but it's 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:44.640 worser now, like on the strip in Las Vegas. It's 0:17:44.800 --> 0:17:50.800 worser now than it was twenty seven years ago. And 0:17:50.920 --> 0:17:55.240 oli enough, I see more commercials about HPV than I 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:59.320 do HIV in terms of prevention. You know, they promoted 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:02.120 the hp BE is if I mean you can live 0:18:02.200 --> 0:18:04.159 with that, you know what I mean? Like you know 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:06.800 what I'm saying. Men don't even have symptoms with that, 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.360 and women can live with it, but it can lead 0:18:09.400 --> 0:18:13.439 to certain types of cervical candider cervical cancer number and 0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:16.919 I host a number issues. Because the thing is, we 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:20.680 seem to have this invincibility factor as Black and hispanning 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:23.200 men like, oh, that had never happened to me until 0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:26.120 it happens. Because I remember my cousin when she got it, 0:18:26.560 --> 0:18:29.760 her husband was a hemophiliate, didn't mess it wrong. I'm 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:33.600 talking about these were very they were professionals, you know. 0:18:34.320 --> 0:18:37.680 He was a director at the hospital. She was the 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:39.760 principal of the school. So they were two people that 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:42.520 she would never think, you know, you never look at 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.400 them and say, oh, what they have. You know, he's 0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:46.840 possibly has hof and you wouldn't think about it like that. 0:18:46.920 --> 0:18:50.440 But he went to Kaiser got a blood transfusion. They 0:18:50.480 --> 0:18:52.560 had no clue when t Kaiser called then one they 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.040 were actually about to go on vacation of Europe. Hey, 0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:58.040 we need you to come in. What's going on. We're 0:18:58.040 --> 0:18:59.960 going on vacation. Can this wait? No, this can't wait. 0:19:00.000 --> 0:19:01.880 You need to come in. So they're like, what's going on. 0:19:02.680 --> 0:19:05.040 You know, we've had an accident. We had a breach, 0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:08.240 chump and unfortunately you were in effect that we need 0:19:08.240 --> 0:19:10.600 to test your wife from back then it wasn't as 0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:12.520 incident as it was. You know, you go take a 0:19:12.560 --> 0:19:15.200 test right now, you're getting your results in five minutes, 0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:17.879 you get your results to fight or ten minutes. Hell, 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:19.640 they even got to test people can take it home, 0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:23.480 you know, you know, to determinate status. So they called 0:19:23.560 --> 0:19:27.320 them in and you know, the wife didn't believe it. 0:19:27.400 --> 0:19:31.320 The husband, you know, that's traumatic, but you know what 0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:33.479 he said, he had a mindset like that because they 0:19:33.480 --> 0:19:36.640 were a Christian couple. He handled totally different than she did. 0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:40.000 He said, you know what, any treatment mistakes you've got, 0:19:40.080 --> 0:19:42.240 And they wound up getting five or six million from cars. 0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:44.199 And I still think they may be settled out of 0:19:44.240 --> 0:19:47.320 court too early because at that time they probably were 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:49.280 their minds thinking we may be dead in two years, 0:19:49.280 --> 0:19:51.000 so we need to take what we can get. We 0:19:51.040 --> 0:19:53.240 don't have the time to track this out of litigation, 0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:55.840 so they took what they can get. I would have 0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:59.000 been pushing the ass for twenty and fifty million dollars personally, 0:19:59.480 --> 0:20:02.800 but he wound up taking a real aggressive course of treatment. 0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:05.200 And when I tell you not that this guy is 0:20:05.280 --> 0:20:10.080 remarried and has had children since he was you know, 0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:12.600 since he was diagnosed healthy, looks just as healthy as 0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:15.359 he's one of us. She died, She died with him 0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:18.439 two years because she refused treatment, and she was just 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:22.280 so angry because her perfect life was disrupted. Not that 0:20:22.440 --> 0:20:24.920 I can blame her. That has to be a traumatic experience. 0:20:25.000 --> 0:20:27.879 I can't even imagine what she went through. But she 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.760 went through this real dark period to where her rumors 0:20:30.800 --> 0:20:33.199 that she possibly was messing with other dudes you know, 0:20:33.440 --> 0:20:36.040 like she was just angry to the point where I 0:20:36.119 --> 0:20:38.080 remember they said when she was in hospital and dying, 0:20:38.119 --> 0:20:41.040 she was seeing people. She was seeing like spirits and 0:20:41.080 --> 0:20:42.879 everything like that. You know, they started going through this 0:20:42.920 --> 0:20:46.400 little form of dementia when they started seeing stuff and everything. 0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:48.360 She had the source and her body and so you see, 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:52.760 this beautiful black woman just just tore apart dog And 0:20:52.800 --> 0:20:55.159 it was the saddest thing ever to me, and it 0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:57.480 made me handle it, and it made me handle my 0:20:57.560 --> 0:21:01.000 life a certain way right right. You know, even before that, 0:21:01.040 --> 0:21:03.359 I was scared to death of her. I mean that ship. 0:21:03.400 --> 0:21:05.840 That ship makes monogamy look cool, you know what I mean, 0:21:06.359 --> 0:21:08.159 it does. You know, here's why I've been with the 0:21:08.200 --> 0:21:10.639 same woman since I was like teen years old. You know, 0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:13.560 I was scared to death of her. Yeah, me too easy. 0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:16.439 When Easy died, bro, I'm telling you, I was like, 0:21:16.520 --> 0:21:19.800 oh Jesus Christ, you know what I mean. You start 0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:23.280 thinking about everything that you could have done, and you know, 0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:26.359 you start thinking, damn, where is she? You know, like, damn, 0:21:26.359 --> 0:21:28.440 I ain't seen such a such damn and she did, 0:21:28.640 --> 0:21:32.399 like your mind. But you know, I think you know 0:21:32.640 --> 0:21:35.040 prevention that I always say that man prevention is the 0:21:35.080 --> 0:21:38.800 best cure. You know, uh know your status and and 0:21:38.800 --> 0:21:41.280 and you know, protect yourself. And like I said, if 0:21:41.280 --> 0:21:44.320 you start new relationships, man, go get tested together, you know. 0:21:45.240 --> 0:21:47.399 And one one thing I do know, Like you just 0:21:47.400 --> 0:21:50.239 said about your uncle, Uh you said your uncle, right, 0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:54.719 your cousin. Just like you said about your cousin, bro, Listen, 0:21:56.200 --> 0:21:58.040 in this day and age, a lot of that ship 0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:01.119 ain't stopping nothing, you know what I mean.

And that's what I'm saying, because you 0:26:13.880 --> 0:26:15.879 knew that dude had a little bick when you're married, 0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:18.200 when you got with him, and you decided to get 0:26:18.240 --> 0:26:20.199 with him, and you decided to marry shortly, you know, 0:26:20.320 --> 0:26:23.680 shortly short of truth. You gotta get that. You gotta 0:26:23.720 --> 0:26:26.320 go the vibrator or something like that. You know, we 0:26:26.400 --> 0:26:31.360 don't get out playing with the motherfucker's life. That ain't cool. Yeah, definitely, definitely. 0:26:31.359 --> 0:26:33.919 But like that's a great point that you made though, James. 0:26:33.960 --> 0:26:37.520 I mean, like you said, sex is so cheap, you 0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:40.119 know what I mean. There's there's you know, when you 0:26:40.200 --> 0:26:43.240 have that casual ship like that, there's no meaningful connections, 0:26:43.280 --> 0:26:46.080 you know, and those are stimes you know, And and 0:26:46.119 --> 0:26:48.200 you said, but but you know, to think about it, man, 0:26:48.320 --> 0:26:50.919 you know some you at some point it seemed like 0:26:50.960 --> 0:26:55.080 as man, you you outgrow that, you know what I'm saying. Theoretically, 0:26:55.119 --> 0:26:57.600 at least you should, you know, you should you can't 0:26:57.680 --> 0:27:01.360 keep doing a little boy stuff. I couldn't imagine. I mean, 0:27:01.359 --> 0:27:03.960 as many beautiful women as I'm around, and I see, 0:27:04.280 --> 0:27:07.199 I'll be honest with you that I don't respond to 0:27:07.240 --> 0:27:09.359 them like that because I gotta like your ass, like 0:27:09.400 --> 0:27:11.800 I gotta kind of connect you and be comfortable with you. 0:27:11.800 --> 0:27:14.360 You know what I mean? When you when you fourteen, fifteen, 0:27:14.440 --> 0:27:16.960 you know, even eighteen years old, the wind blow and 0:27:17.000 --> 0:27:19.360 then motherfucker rock up on you. Right, you will put 0:27:19.400 --> 0:27:21.920 that the more sucking a blender if it feels good 0:27:22.119 --> 0:27:24.639 what I'm saying. But you get to a certain age 0:27:24.680 --> 0:27:27.320 where you know your affections, you start looking at the 0:27:27.400 --> 0:27:29.800 quality of a woman because at the same time, this 0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:31.960 is the woman that's probably gonna raise your kids, you 0:27:32.000 --> 0:27:35.080 know what I'm saying. So you start looking at like like, 0:27:35.200 --> 0:27:38.280 you know, like we're in this bad bitch culture, and 0:27:38.320 --> 0:27:41.240 I'm like, what constitutes you as a bad bitch? Because 0:27:41.280 --> 0:27:43.719 you got a fake fat ass and you know, an 0:27:43.720 --> 0:27:46.720 augmented body. Like I'm looking at what's your education, what's 0:27:46.720 --> 0:27:49.640 your personality? Like, you know what I'm saying, what what's 0:27:49.640 --> 0:27:54.760 your aspirations? What's ship that's that's the ship that count. Yeah, 0:27:54.800 --> 0:27:59.080 with that, you're probably gonna get a responsible adult that 0:27:59.200 --> 0:28:02.639 you know most likely doesn't have anything, and if they do, 0:28:03.000 --> 0:28:05.000 they probably would let you know. You know, but when 0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:07.760 you're chasing them city girls, ain't no telling what you're 0:28:07.800 --> 0:28:10.560 gonna come up with. You should be asking. I know, 0:28:10.680 --> 0:28:15.679 for me, would attracted me most to my wife was 0:28:15.720 --> 0:28:19.080 the fact that she wasn't promiscuous. She was a church girl. 0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:21.359 She wouldn't come up to my part with me. We 0:28:21.400 --> 0:28:24.120 sat on the stupid at university, or we were sitting 0:28:24.119 --> 0:28:26.400 in their car. You know, I was a young dude. 0:28:26.400 --> 0:28:27.680 I was trying to get her to come up there 0:28:27.760 --> 0:28:29.720 to the department, but she wouldn't have happen, And that 0:28:29.880 --> 0:28:32.560 maybe like her even more maybe valuable. As I looked, 0:28:32.640 --> 0:28:34.240 I didn't look at it as the object at that point. 0:28:34.240 --> 0:28:36.040 I look the I was like, man, I'm married this girl. 0:28:36.520 --> 0:28:41.920 That's like I'm on raising my kids between your wife 0:28:42.320 --> 0:28:47.440 yester years to the wifey I want today. Because a 0:28:47.480 --> 0:28:52.920 lot of women don't leave nothing for the mind. You 0:28:52.960 --> 0:28:57.640 see everything you see, you see it all right there. See. 0:28:58.240 --> 0:29:01.520 Most of the women of today don't know the worth 0:29:01.960 --> 0:29:06.600 of self meaning hurt. They just there for the moment. 0:29:07.000 --> 0:29:10.360 They you know, we got fifty five sixty year old 0:29:10.400 --> 0:29:17.360 women prefer forty thirty nine year old young man. How 0:29:17.400 --> 0:29:20.400 can you get a young man of that age when 0:29:20.480 --> 0:29:24.840 he has yet to reach his peak? So you actually 0:29:24.920 --> 0:29:28.960 planning yourself all this time, all this time, and now 0:29:29.040 --> 0:29:32.600 you have to be mother because the average cat you 0:29:32.680 --> 0:29:37.200 get ain't working. Are he doing is laying up playing PlayStation, 0:29:37.280 --> 0:29:40.640 doing his thing, and and he he hitting the old ads. 0:29:42.720 --> 0:29:44.560 One day you wake up because he didn't hit the 0:29:44.680 --> 0:29:47.880 upside the head with the pillow. Now you'll be like, damn, 0:29:47.920 --> 0:29:50.400 maybe can you go pay a bill or something for me? 0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:52.880 But now it's hard to get rid of that cat. 0:29:53.120 --> 0:29:56.040 But what I'm saying is a lot of women don't 0:29:56.040 --> 0:30:01.640 know they worked today. Yeah, that's the fortunately, Yeah, that's right, James. 0:30:01.640 --> 0:30:04.120 I mean it's the culture too, just like you know, 0:30:04.240 --> 0:30:06.880 on the man's side, you know you have us, you know, 0:30:07.000 --> 0:30:09.680 you have the youngsters, you know, preaching this drill and 0:30:09.720 --> 0:30:12.200 this kill and this negative ship. You know what I mean. 0:30:12.440 --> 0:30:14.640 It's the same thing with the young girls and the women. 0:30:14.960 --> 0:30:18.080 You know, they don't understand the importance of of a union. 0:30:18.320 --> 0:30:20.920 Nobody wants to be married. Everybody wants to be a 0:30:20.960 --> 0:30:23.240 bad bitch or a baby mama, you know what I mean, 0:30:24.320 --> 0:30:26.760 And all of that stuff kind of to still was 0:30:26.840 --> 0:30:29.320 saying earlier, Like you said your attraction with your wife, 0:30:29.680 --> 0:30:32.200 if I could guess, she probably had a father around, 0:30:32.240 --> 0:30:34.200 She probably had a strong father figure, you know what 0:30:34.280 --> 0:30:37.640 I'm saying, So exactly the same thing with my wife. 0:30:37.720 --> 0:30:40.200 My wife grew up with a father and her she 0:30:40.240 --> 0:30:42.959 had her father's love, her father's so she wasn't seeking 0:30:43.040 --> 0:30:46.400 that approval and that attention from just anywhere. You know 0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:48.120 what I'm saying, Because a lot of these girls be 0:30:48.200 --> 0:30:51.760 seeking you know, uh, that protection and that attention that 0:30:51.840 --> 0:30:54.880 they didn't get in the house. So um, yeah, the 0:30:54.920 --> 0:30:57.960 culture is different now. That's why we gotta like my daughters. 0:30:58.240 --> 0:31:01.160 You know everywhere you still you met my daughters. I 0:31:03.040 --> 0:31:05.400 ain't raised no hot girls. I didn't raise none of that. 0:31:05.480 --> 0:31:08.760 Even once my oldest daughter became a woman. And I 0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:12.600 understand a woman wants to feel sexy. I totally get that, right, 0:31:12.800 --> 0:31:15.280 But I used to tell the rule of thumb. If 0:31:15.320 --> 0:31:18.680 you're gonna show some cleavage, cover up the bottom half. 0:31:19.200 --> 0:31:21.440 If you're going to wear something fitted on the bottom, 0:31:21.560 --> 0:31:23.480 cover up the top half. Is one or the other 0:31:23.520 --> 0:31:25.880 don't just be you know what I'm saying, don't just 0:31:26.680 --> 0:31:32.720 like that leave something. It's like, you gotta talk to 0:31:32.760 --> 0:31:34.600 your daughters like you talk to your sons. You can't, 0:31:34.640 --> 0:31:37.680 damn though, you can't discriminating that conversation. And I know 0:31:37.760 --> 0:31:41.320 what's uncomfortable to sell, don't you know? When I knew 0:31:41.320 --> 0:31:44.400 it was time. When we were in Atlanta, I would 0:31:44.440 --> 0:31:47.560 turn around every five minutes and kick some grown asser 0:31:47.600 --> 0:31:49.320 looked like he older than me looking at my daughter, 0:31:49.680 --> 0:31:51.239 and then we kissed me off. But then that's when 0:31:51.280 --> 0:31:53.560 I realized, I said, she's turning into a young lady. 0:31:53.600 --> 0:31:57.120 Now I have to have these conversations with it, because 0:31:57.480 --> 0:31:59.880 I understand the power of an older nigga with a 0:32:00.200 --> 0:32:04.080 mouth exactly right, exactly. But what you fail to realize, 0:32:05.200 --> 0:32:08.600 both of y'all got daughters. Don't take the difference here. 0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:13.840 Your your Your daughters grew up with their mom and 0:32:13.880 --> 0:32:18.320 their father. They understand, They see what it is to 0:32:18.360 --> 0:32:20.880 be a man and what type of man they want, 0:32:21.760 --> 0:32:24.360 So they're not gonna be out there as reckless as 0:32:24.800 --> 0:32:28.040 the young girl that's not around her father all the time. 0:32:28.600 --> 0:32:33.479 So they grew up with values, understanding what it is 0:32:33.640 --> 0:32:35.840 and what they want when they get to that point. 0:32:36.640 --> 0:32:38.840 You know what I'm saying, there's not a woman, a 0:32:38.960 --> 0:32:41.960 young woman on this planet today that don't go through 0:32:42.000 --> 0:32:46.440 the the homeward thing and want to experience what it 0:32:46.520 --> 0:32:50.120 feels like or what you know, what is love or 0:32:50.320 --> 0:32:56.360 you know, you see what I'm saying. So where we 0:32:56.480 --> 0:33:00.520 come in at is we kind of determined from them 0:33:00.560 --> 0:33:04.400 their own thought, you see what I'm saying. So every 0:33:04.400 --> 0:33:06.160 time we keep saying no, that ain't the one, that 0:33:06.200 --> 0:33:08.560 ain't the one, don't do it like this, that makes 0:33:08.600 --> 0:33:15.200 them want to further investigate, you know, certain situations. So 0:33:16.200 --> 0:33:19.560 we can only be parents now. The difference with with 0:33:19.560 --> 0:33:23.200 with my daughter, having my daughter the whole time for 0:33:23.240 --> 0:33:27.280 eight years while her mama was going away doing her thing. 0:33:28.000 --> 0:33:31.720 I've explained to my daughter, rowing uncut, you don't want 0:33:31.720 --> 0:33:33.560 to cat like your daddy, you don't want to cat 0:33:33.640 --> 0:33:37.920 like your uncles. But when they grow up, they want 0:33:37.920 --> 0:33:41.320 to see for themselves. So giving it to her, the 0:33:41.880 --> 0:33:45.760 the growing uncut, I probably put a little too much 0:33:45.760 --> 0:33:49.200 on it because now she won't that rowing uncutting in it, 0:33:50.200 --> 0:33:54.120 so she believed, you see what I'm saying, So we 0:33:54.160 --> 0:33:56.200 could be doing it the right way. And we could 0:33:56.240 --> 0:33:58.240 be doing it the wrong way at the same time, 0:33:58.320 --> 0:34:02.520 we could be right wrong. I had to say it 0:34:02.560 --> 0:34:05.479 ain't my fault because when I allowed her to go 0:34:05.560 --> 0:34:09.400 back with her mother. One thing Pops didn't tell her 0:34:09.880 --> 0:34:12.440 is that sweet talk ship, Oh you're so fine, baby, 0:34:12.520 --> 0:34:14.920 because I can't go on that character. This is my child. 0:34:15.640 --> 0:34:18.760 So when that dude get to talk into the mind 0:34:20.000 --> 0:34:22.920 and she never been in a relationship, is something brand 0:34:22.920 --> 0:34:25.560 new to your child, you know what I'm saying, as 0:34:25.560 --> 0:34:30.319 a young woman, and she's amazed by that because her 0:34:30.360 --> 0:34:34.719 mind is fully developed. Don't understanding that this is bullshit propaganda. 0:34:35.360 --> 0:34:39.000 So they fall into that track regardless of what. But 0:34:39.960 --> 0:34:43.160 that's when we say we stepped back and allowed them 0:34:43.239 --> 0:34:46.799 to grow up and be young women, because whether y'all 0:34:46.800 --> 0:34:50.680 know it or not, your daughters are its instilled and 0:34:50.760 --> 0:34:53.279 I'm already you just don't look at it like that. 0:34:53.320 --> 0:34:57.680 But they see the difference of man, you see what 0:34:57.719 --> 0:35:00.400 I'm saying. They already know, Hey, let's pay bill is 0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:05.560 real quick and we get right back to y'all. Well, 0:35:05.560 --> 0:35:07.680 you know one thing I was gonna say is, you know, 0:35:07.760 --> 0:35:10.880 women not knowing their word farm. I was watching the 0:35:10.920 --> 0:35:14.720 movie Baby Boy, the other day. It's on It's on Lulu, 0:35:14.880 --> 0:35:17.760 and I haven't seen that movie and maybe fifteen years, 0:35:18.440 --> 0:35:20.680 and I just looked at the relationship, and I looked 0:35:20.719 --> 0:35:22.640 at it. I said, you know, here you go. You 0:35:22.719 --> 0:35:26.840 got Tyree's he asked, two beautiful baby mothers, right, you know, 0:35:26.880 --> 0:35:29.040 he got to Roger Heinson and he got the other girl, 0:35:29.120 --> 0:35:32.120 both of them beautiful young ladies. Yet they accepting this 0:35:32.239 --> 0:35:34.920 dude going out cheating on him, she finding condoms in 0:35:34.960 --> 0:35:37.560 the back of the car. He don't messed around with 0:35:37.600 --> 0:35:39.719 the girl, look at her job and stuff, and she 0:35:39.840 --> 0:35:41.680 still puts up with it because she on there like, 0:35:42.360 --> 0:35:44.799 that's my baby daddy. I love him no, and I 0:35:44.840 --> 0:35:46.520 wanted to come back he don't love you no more 0:35:46.520 --> 0:35:48.040 than I looked at it now, and I looked at 0:35:48.040 --> 0:35:49.840 it way different. I give up younger, I said, the 0:35:49.960 --> 0:35:53.200 women are pathetic on here. Who would you just sit 0:35:53.280 --> 0:35:55.520 up and accept some bullshit like that? A motherfucker that 0:35:55.600 --> 0:35:58.640 don't work, a motherfucker that don't do enough, but coming 0:35:58.640 --> 0:36:01.200 in the late fight. But he ain't saying no bills 0:36:00.920 --> 0:36:04.560 and half father to his child. He's still a little boy. 0:36:04.719 --> 0:36:08.239 He's still clinging to his mama's titty because every time 0:36:08.320 --> 0:36:09.640 he gets mad at her, what do you do? He 0:36:09.719 --> 0:36:11.480 leave the house and go home in his room. He 0:36:11.520 --> 0:36:14.040 don't even want his mama to have a boyfriend, you know, 0:36:14.120 --> 0:36:16.839 until Melvine gets smack him upside the head and you know, 0:36:17.200 --> 0:36:20.120 gets mac right in them. But he's still a little boy. 0:36:20.160 --> 0:36:22.319 And that's the same thing about these guys to chase 0:36:22.400 --> 0:36:25.080 these women. See, I'm gonna tell you it takes a 0:36:25.120 --> 0:36:27.520 man to be a man. And I'm not knocking what 0:36:27.640 --> 0:36:30.399 nobody else do, bro, but it takes a certain level 0:36:30.440 --> 0:36:32.839 of maturity to say this is my woman, I'm gonna 0:36:32.880 --> 0:36:34.919 hold my house down, I'm gonna take care of my house. 0:36:35.160 --> 0:36:37.000 And to take care of my house, that means I'm 0:36:37.040 --> 0:36:39.120 ou off. They're slinging my dick. Ter every sally and 0:36:39.200 --> 0:36:43.520 sues m Well, knowing you got you got young men 0:36:43.520 --> 0:36:49.279 out there like my cheftain. No man until he got 0:36:49.360 --> 0:36:53.360 it fifty years old, forty five years old, don't understand 0:36:53.440 --> 0:36:56.680 what it is to be a man, don't understand responsibility 0:36:57.040 --> 0:36:59.880 like some of these young women. You're young, you have 0:37:00.040 --> 0:37:02.920 the child, you think you love this person. That's why 0:37:02.920 --> 0:37:07.120 he's stuck with Goldie because Jody was was that dude, 0:37:07.320 --> 0:37:09.480 he didn't have to have no job. We see this 0:37:09.560 --> 0:37:15.680 every day. Women fall in love with with with what's 0:37:15.680 --> 0:37:18.560 outside on the outside of him. You know, it could 0:37:18.600 --> 0:37:21.600 be his dubism, whatever they want to call it, but 0:37:22.120 --> 0:37:24.440 both of them. Women love that dude. You know what 0:37:24.520 --> 0:37:29.640 I'm saying, not understanding what it's something out there that's better, 0:37:30.600 --> 0:37:34.600 but they know what the baby daddy is somebody totally different. 0:37:34.640 --> 0:37:37.200 We always say I'm ship, I'm the baby daddy. I 0:37:37.239 --> 0:37:41.040 can go back and hit any time. No, if you're 0:37:41.040 --> 0:37:43.799 not a productive father, everybody don't know how to be 0:37:44.160 --> 0:37:47.840 a parent, even young women. They don't know how to 0:37:47.880 --> 0:37:51.799 be mothers. And you know what, James, I pushed back 0:37:51.840 --> 0:37:54.040 on that a little bit, and I'll tell you why, because, 0:37:54.080 --> 0:37:56.880 like my situation is unique. You know, my situation is 0:37:56.920 --> 0:37:59.160 kind of an anomaly because I've been with mine, I've 0:37:59.160 --> 0:38:01.719 been with my wife's. I was fifteen, you know, And 0:38:01.760 --> 0:38:04.560 to be very honest with you, when I my wife 0:38:04.600 --> 0:38:06.920 is older than me. So when I was younger, I 0:38:07.080 --> 0:38:08.759 was you know, this ain't what it was when I 0:38:08.840 --> 0:38:11.279 was fifteen. When I was fifteen, it looked like I 0:38:11.360 --> 0:38:14.240 was gonna either go to prison or I was gonna 0:38:14.360 --> 0:38:17.080 wind up, you know what I'm saying, dead um. But 0:38:17.239 --> 0:38:20.759 even with that, he saw something to me that I 0:38:20.760 --> 0:38:24.719 didn't see him myself. So sometimes, you know, when you 0:38:24.800 --> 0:38:27.759 speaking to affairs of the heart, you know, yeah, we 0:38:27.800 --> 0:38:30.160 could look on because if somebody had to judge me 0:38:30.280 --> 0:38:32.120 like that, if somebody would have said, because I mean, 0:38:32.160 --> 0:38:34.280 she was in college, she had a two parent household, 0:38:34.360 --> 0:38:36.640 she was a good girl, wasn't out there all of that, 0:38:36.920 --> 0:38:40.080 you know, But me, I was still complete opposite. So 0:38:40.239 --> 0:38:42.840 it looked like what the funk you doing with this nigger? 0:38:42.960 --> 0:38:44.319 Like you know what I mean, you could do so 0:38:44.400 --> 0:38:46.200 much better. Hell, it was times where I thought she 0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:48.759 could have did better too, you know. But but you 0:38:48.800 --> 0:38:50.759 know when you talk about affairs of the heart, and 0:38:50.800 --> 0:38:53.239 I think that's what makes the beauty of a relationship, 0:38:53.280 --> 0:38:55.880 when people can grow together because motherfucker's changed, you know 0:38:55.880 --> 0:38:59.280 what I'm saying. So motherfucker might be you know, stuck 0:38:59.280 --> 0:39:01.319 on stupid for a second, but you you know, give 0:39:01.400 --> 0:39:03.799 him some time and you love on them and you 0:39:03.840 --> 0:39:06.279 support them, and they can turn that corner, you know 0:39:06.280 --> 0:39:08.000 what I mean. Because one thing I taught my daughter, 0:39:08.360 --> 0:39:11.440 I talked my daughter. I didn't take her to to 0:39:11.440 --> 0:39:14.080 to look for men with money and all of that. 0:39:14.200 --> 0:39:15.920 Not at all, right, because what I used to tell 0:39:15.960 --> 0:39:18.880 her is your mother is here because she chooses to be. 0:39:19.280 --> 0:39:21.799 She don't have to be. You know, she's educated, she 0:39:21.880 --> 0:39:25.359 has a career. So I always told my daughter, if 0:39:25.400 --> 0:39:27.960 you get with a nigga and he don't got ship, 0:39:28.400 --> 0:39:30.759 that's cool. You can rock with that as long as 0:39:30.760 --> 0:39:36.240 he is pro actively, exactly exactly actively trying to get something. 0:39:36.400 --> 0:39:39.160 If he's okay not having ship, no you don't that. 0:39:39.239 --> 0:39:41.560 I told my daughter the same thing, because it's the 0:39:41.560 --> 0:39:44.640 such thing as growing together. You meet that young man. No, 0:39:44.800 --> 0:39:47.960 he may have him a job for UPS. Yeah, you know, 0:39:48.040 --> 0:39:50.080 he may have a job at UPS. My whole thing 0:39:50.160 --> 0:39:52.360 is this, I've always wanted my daughter just to have 0:39:52.480 --> 0:39:56.040 a man. Now there wasn't a damn bum to have 0:39:56.160 --> 0:39:57.640 its sense of pride. I don't give with them. If 0:39:57.640 --> 0:40:00.520 people work the ups in the daytime sl and boxes 0:40:00.560 --> 0:40:03.080 in the nighttime, had a job with overnight ship, I 0:40:03.160 --> 0:40:05.439 would never have my daughter. That's a man, because that's 0:40:05.440 --> 0:40:07.879 a man that's gonna provide for us also, and he's 0:40:07.920 --> 0:40:10.920 going to do anything. Because I know for me, we've 0:40:10.960 --> 0:40:12.840 all been fortuned on here that we're able to do 0:40:12.880 --> 0:40:15.480 what we love. We're living. But if this ship wouldn't 0:40:15.480 --> 0:40:17.440 a way, I have no problem. Want to go shut 0:40:17.440 --> 0:40:20.399 with ship to take put food on the table. We're 0:40:20.400 --> 0:40:22.439 doing what I have to do. I don't have my 0:40:22.440 --> 0:40:24.880 My old pride comes from me take being a provider. 0:40:25.280 --> 0:40:27.439 My kids ain't never missing no meals. My kids don't 0:40:27.440 --> 0:40:28.719 know where it is to come to the house, and 0:40:28.719 --> 0:40:31.160 the lights ain't turned on, the biggest thing with them. 0:40:31.200 --> 0:40:33.640 The worst thing is if the cable is off or 0:40:33.680 --> 0:40:36.040 the internet, I get to pay the build internet. It's 0:40:36.080 --> 0:40:39.000 like that happened to me the other day, still about 0:40:39.000 --> 0:40:41.920 three days ago. And that's how I fund acause I 0:40:41.920 --> 0:40:43.520 don't get to I don't take care of that. That's 0:40:43.520 --> 0:40:45.560 the one deal I take care of in the house personally. 0:40:45.680 --> 0:40:49.080 Right If the internet is off, Pops, what's wrong with 0:40:49.080 --> 0:40:51.640 the internet? All my bad? Let's be gonna take this thing. 0:40:52.040 --> 0:40:54.319 But it's six things I want to read, and I 0:40:54.360 --> 0:40:56.279 want the people out here to really pay attention to 0:40:56.360 --> 0:40:58.520 this because I'm tired of seeing our people die with 0:40:58.600 --> 0:41:00.560 dumb ship that they don't have to die from. So 0:41:00.640 --> 0:41:03.200 this is just a start. This is my contribution. Number one. 0:41:03.960 --> 0:41:07.200 Black Americans account for almost half of new affections in 0:41:07.239 --> 0:41:10.360 the US each year, despite representing only thirteen percent of 0:41:10.360 --> 0:41:15.640 the population. Although prevention efforts have contributed to a decrease 0:41:15.680 --> 0:41:19.200 in the number of new HIV diagnosis among Black Americans, 0:41:19.600 --> 0:41:23.840 progress has been inconsistent. Black Americans remain more likely to 0:41:23.880 --> 0:41:27.880 be exposed to HIV, not because they participated more risky behavior, 0:41:27.960 --> 0:41:31.040 but because the prevalence of HIV is much greater in 0:41:31.040 --> 0:41:34.920 this community compared with other racial ethnic groups. Number two 0:41:35.320 --> 0:41:38.880 and estimated fourteen percent of Black Americans living with HIV 0:41:39.000 --> 0:41:42.000 are not aware of their status. Go out and get tested. 0:41:42.800 --> 0:41:45.279 They can add years onto your life. They even have 0:41:45.360 --> 0:41:47.640 a medicine now that I saw on TV to where 0:41:47.680 --> 0:41:49.840 if you sleep with somebody you can take it the 0:41:49.920 --> 0:41:53.000 day after and the knocks down the chances of UK 0:41:53.239 --> 0:41:56.960 and HIV exponentially. Go know your status. You don't have 0:41:57.040 --> 0:41:58.439 to die. I don't have to be a depth sence. 0:41:58.480 --> 0:42:01.360 But go take care of yourself. Go find out what's wrong. 0:42:01.880 --> 0:42:04.840 Number three one and two Black men in the US 0:42:04.880 --> 0:42:07.920 who are gay will be diagnosed with HIV in their lifetime. 0:42:08.280 --> 0:42:13.440 That's some scary as ship. Let's say that's scary yourself 0:42:13.440 --> 0:42:16.560 because you think about it. Even if you're not, you 0:42:16.600 --> 0:42:18.279 can say, oh that on the pact me because I'm 0:42:18.320 --> 0:42:20.600 not gay. Man. How you know one of them dudes 0:42:20.640 --> 0:42:23.839 ain't ain't um living in the shell. One of them down, 0:42:23.840 --> 0:42:25.759 no dudes and he's sleeping with somebody he knows that. 0:42:25.840 --> 0:42:29.680 You know, ran across bro. Most of them are. And 0:42:29.719 --> 0:42:33.520 that's what I'm saying. Number Number four, the incidents of 0:42:33.719 --> 0:42:37.280 HIV has decreased, has decreased among Black women in the US. 0:42:37.360 --> 0:42:39.760 That's the only good thing I've seen on this motherfucker 0:42:39.880 --> 0:42:44.000 so far. The CDC estimated that the number of HIV 0:42:44.160 --> 0:42:50.120 diagnosed among Black women decreased fort However, new infections remain 0:42:50.200 --> 0:42:52.319 more common in Black women than the women of other 0:42:52.440 --> 0:42:56.680 racial ethnic groups. Number five. Black transgender women are more 0:42:56.719 --> 0:42:59.759 likely to be infected with HIV compared with tranship to 0:42:59.800 --> 0:43:04.240 women and the other racial ethnic groups. Number six. HIV 0:43:04.360 --> 0:43:07.160 related deaths are more likely to occur in Black Americans 0:43:07.200 --> 0:43:11.920 compared with other groups. And that's because we don't find 0:43:11.960 --> 0:43:14.480 out what's going on with us. And it's not just 0:43:14.560 --> 0:43:20.719 with HIV, is with fum correct um, colon cancer, other diseases. 0:43:20.960 --> 0:43:23.239 We just don't go It's almost like we lived in 0:43:23.280 --> 0:43:26.760 this delusion, bro, under this cover like to where oh 0:43:27.000 --> 0:43:29.319 I'm gonna put this cover over my head, or I'm 0:43:29.320 --> 0:43:31.560 gonna hold a penny up to the sun because it's 0:43:31.600 --> 0:43:33.680 blocking the sun out, but the sun is still shine. 0:43:33.719 --> 0:43:36.839 It's just an illusion. We think. What you think that's 0:43:36.840 --> 0:43:40.160 a tribute to still you know what, Bro? I think 0:43:40.160 --> 0:43:42.440 it's attributed to people just not wanting to know.

It's like 0:43:46.360 --> 0:43:49.760 the monstrous like and I just said it, it's almost 0:43:49.760 --> 0:43:51.799 like holding a penny up to the sun. You can 0:43:51.800 --> 0:43:53.360 hold a penny up to the sun and holding a 0:43:53.400 --> 0:43:55.520 certain way looked like you're blocking off the sun. You 0:43:55.600 --> 0:43:57.400 keep thinking you're blocking the sun. You stand out there 0:43:57.400 --> 0:44:01.279 and burning death right right?

You know, because 0:47:02.680 --> 0:47:04.839 I was telling my homeboys, like I made it a joke. 0:47:05.040 --> 0:47:08.239 I was like, man, like, man, my little doctor violated me.

So now I ain't got to 0:47:46.760 --> 0:47:49.400 take insulin and no ship like that.

Now I'm just doing a one pin 0:54:00.880 --> 0:54:05.759 once a day dinner, So I know I'm getting better. 0:54:08.680 --> 0:54:10.839 Ain't kudos to you, bro, because I know you had 0:54:10.920 --> 0:54:13.239 to not only change what you were doing, but you 0:54:13.320 --> 0:54:16.040 had to change your mind, your mentality, and that's to 0:54:16.080 --> 0:54:19.239 do too. And that's the hardest part about it, because 0:54:19.239 --> 0:54:21.239 I'm gonna tell you the biggest thing I had to learn. 0:54:22.080 --> 0:54:25.600 I'm not gonna lie bro. I love taking down the 0:54:25.680 --> 0:54:27.920 boss plate. I love a good plate. Like you know, 0:54:28.040 --> 0:54:30.440 I give myself Thanksgiving to where I pretty much eat 0:54:30.480 --> 0:54:33.040 what I want to. But I've cut way back on 0:54:33.120 --> 0:54:35.400 the red meat because I just don't have to. But 0:54:36.000 --> 0:54:38.879 I still allow myself that occasional cheak like last night, 0:54:39.400 --> 0:54:41.920 you know, cause I'm driving ship again. I crept off 0:54:41.960 --> 0:54:44.600 the Timing Burger because I wanted some chili cheese fries 0:54:44.719 --> 0:54:47.279 so bad dog the double chili Burger. The ship is good, 0:54:47.400 --> 0:54:50.439 is delicious, but it's bad for you. You can't eat 0:54:50.480 --> 0:54:52.360 that ship every dingy because I remember, man, when I 0:54:52.520 --> 0:54:58.120 was maybe dollar thirty, I ballooned up like three five dollars. 0:54:58.239 --> 0:55:01.920 Every night Friday. I would come on, I would take 0:55:02.000 --> 0:55:03.840 down me some beer. I would have me at twelve 0:55:03.920 --> 0:55:06.600 pack in Henry wine. Are drink that motherfucker that I 0:55:06.640 --> 0:55:09.640 would go to the bugger fucking um Burger spot chili 0:55:09.760 --> 0:55:12.879 cheese fries, a big chili cheese fries. I wasn't fat 0:55:12.880 --> 0:55:16.200 because I was still lifting button. I was breathing hard 0:55:16.280 --> 0:55:19.120 all the time. We're using the stuff man, and I said, 0:55:19.160 --> 0:55:20.920 you know what, this is not gonna work. Dog, And 0:55:20.960 --> 0:55:24.279 I just gradually just started saying, you know what, I 0:55:24.360 --> 0:55:26.879 can have that maybe downalance, but you know what, maybe 0:55:26.920 --> 0:55:28.719 I don't need a medium. Maybe I'll just get me 0:55:28.760 --> 0:55:32.360 a small fries with a cheese burger. Yeah. You know 0:55:32.400 --> 0:55:34.479 what I tell people. You know what I tell people still, 0:55:34.640 --> 0:55:37.520 because you know, I mean, I'm forty six, right and 0:55:37.680 --> 0:55:40.279 so um and I didn't pick up a weight. I 0:55:40.320 --> 0:55:42.440 mean I was always athletic, but I didn't pick up 0:55:42.440 --> 0:55:44.959 away till I was thirty. And and that was because 0:55:44.960 --> 0:55:46.640 I think I thought I was having to get sell 0:55:46.680 --> 0:55:48.840 block ready. But that's a that's a whole another story. 0:55:49.160 --> 0:55:51.640 But I tell people, when you when you do the 0:55:51.800 --> 0:55:54.279 right thing, like ninety percent of the time, when you 0:55:54.360 --> 0:55:56.960 eat clean and you kind of exercise and you live 0:55:57.000 --> 0:55:59.840 a healthy lifestyle, then you can afford to indulge in 0:56:00.000 --> 0:56:03.080 that ship. You know, because I I pizza, I eat 0:56:03.160 --> 0:56:06.880 boyshit often, but I eat and I eat the right 0:56:06.960 --> 0:56:09.000 thing nine percent of the time. So when people see 0:56:09.040 --> 0:56:11.680 me eating hamburgers and fries, I eat McDonald's in and 0:56:11.760 --> 0:56:14.520 out all of that ship. But guess what, you know, 0:56:14.680 --> 0:56:17.040 my lifestyle is in the gym, so I can eat 0:56:17.080 --> 0:56:18.880 whatever because I'm just gonna burn it, you know what 0:56:18.960 --> 0:56:22.279 I mean. So I think understanding your body and and 0:56:22.680 --> 0:56:25.279 your your you're eating habits, and just how your life is, 0:56:25.360 --> 0:56:28.200 like I say, health as wealth. Man, Just excuse me, 0:56:29.000 --> 0:56:32.480 you know? Uh? Like like James said, portion control too, man, 0:56:32.520 --> 0:56:34.840 a lot like you said that play. Our culture is 0:56:34.920 --> 0:56:37.160 to eat. Like you know, I'm back in Kansas City 0:56:37.280 --> 0:56:40.840 right now, visiting for Thanksgiving, and the culture here is 0:56:41.040 --> 0:56:43.920 way different, my nigga. Like, I went to a restaurant earlier, 0:56:44.080 --> 0:56:49.680 right and I looked around the restaurant. Man of the 0:56:49.719 --> 0:56:52.319 restaurant was obese. You know what I'm saying, I'm the mother. 0:56:52.400 --> 0:56:55.239 I'm the only motherfucker in there eating grilled chicken. And 0:56:55.360 --> 0:56:57.840 we remember I'm from the Midwest too, so you know, 0:56:57.920 --> 0:56:59.480 it's the same thing for me. When I went back 0:56:59.520 --> 0:57:02.680 through and I hold on and I kept wondering, I 0:57:02.840 --> 0:57:05.160 kept saying, like I'm sitting in a chair and I 0:57:05.320 --> 0:57:07.320 kept thinking, like them, I'm in this booth. Why is 0:57:07.360 --> 0:57:10.320 the fucking table so far from the back of the booth. 0:57:10.680 --> 0:57:13.200 It's because it gott to fit all these OBEs. Motherfucker's 0:57:13.239 --> 0:57:16.400 in there, you know what I mean. And I looked around, like, damn, 0:57:16.480 --> 0:57:20.320 that's crazy. I'm the only one in here eating grilled chicken. 0:57:20.360 --> 0:57:23.200 Everybody else got these big gas place with gravy running 0:57:23.240 --> 0:57:26.080 down they fucking arms, and you know, and I know 0:57:26.240 --> 0:57:29.520 that's our culture, but you know, we gotta we gotta understand, 0:57:29.600 --> 0:57:31.840 I know, Hew, and listen for some of those that's 0:57:31.880 --> 0:57:35.160 listening to watching. I know. You know, sometimes especially when 0:57:35.200 --> 0:57:38.600 people are you know, kind of food challenged and on 0:57:38.680 --> 0:57:41.480 a budget, eating healthy can be expensive, you know what 0:57:41.560 --> 0:57:45.000 I'm saying. So even if you can't afford to always 0:57:45.120 --> 0:57:47.560 go to Whole Foods or whatever whatever, you know, like 0:57:47.760 --> 0:57:50.440 James said, portion control for what you do have, you know, 0:57:50.920 --> 0:57:54.560 and just you know that ship with exercise. Man, I'm 0:57:54.560 --> 0:57:56.720 gonna tell you something. When I went back to Io, 0:57:56.880 --> 0:57:59.480 when I was just there like maybe three four months ago, 0:58:00.280 --> 0:58:02.640 one thing I realized that I missed, man, because I 0:58:02.720 --> 0:58:05.600 got aunties. They plant their own greens in their backyard, 0:58:05.680 --> 0:58:08.520 They plant their own squashing and stuff like that. So 0:58:08.640 --> 0:58:11.360 I had some greens, string bean, starf and they just 0:58:11.560 --> 0:58:14.600 remember they tasted different, man, because that stuff comes from 0:58:14.600 --> 0:58:18.160 their yard, and I know they make food so out 0:58:18.200 --> 0:58:20.880 of reach for our communities, like the good stuff. The 0:58:21.000 --> 0:58:23.240 average person on a budget can't afford to go grocery 0:58:23.240 --> 0:58:25.040 shop in the whole food. They gotta go to food 0:58:25.080 --> 0:58:27.280 for less. And I noticed I don't like me. I 0:58:27.320 --> 0:58:29.200 don't even shop for food for less because if you 0:58:29.320 --> 0:58:31.960 notice the quality, the food is so bad there. Even 0:58:32.000 --> 0:58:34.000 when you look at the ground beef and food for less, 0:58:34.520 --> 0:58:36.720 you let's say you buy a tin pound pack of 0:58:36.800 --> 0:58:39.480 ground beef. By the time you cook that motherfucker, there's 0:58:39.480 --> 0:58:42.120 so much oil and ship in there because it's just different. 0:58:42.200 --> 0:58:44.320 But when you go to an al per cents or 0:58:44.480 --> 0:58:46.600 Whole Foods or whatever, you fry the ground beef, you 0:58:46.680 --> 0:58:49.400 notice it's less fat. It's just like they give us 0:58:49.520 --> 0:58:52.240 the worst of the worst. Ship's think of the Black 0:58:52.280 --> 0:58:55.120 and Latino communities. When you go to the store, you 0:58:55.240 --> 0:58:57.360 buying me, you buy some ground I bought some ground 0:58:57.440 --> 0:58:59.040 beef and food for less because it was the only 0:58:59.120 --> 0:59:02.280 thing open one time, trying to make some spaghetti. Man, 0:59:02.320 --> 0:59:04.320 I'm gonna tell you that ship was bad. I wanted 0:59:04.360 --> 0:59:06.200 to throw it away. I was like, it just smelt bad. 0:59:06.280 --> 0:59:08.640 I was like this is not good, man, And it's 0:59:08.720 --> 0:59:11.120 fatty as ship. You could see the fat like, yeah, 0:59:11.160 --> 0:59:13.640 you're right, you're right. That's what I said. I want 0:59:13.680 --> 0:59:16.000 a five thing of ground beef dog when I swear 0:59:16.520 --> 0:59:19.040 that stuff is went from like this to like this, 0:59:19.160 --> 0:59:20.640 and it was just oil and the pin like a 0:59:20.680 --> 0:59:22.720 whole bout of oil there. And I was like, damn, 0:59:23.480 --> 0:59:26.840 it's just bad, bro. We have to really like and 0:59:26.960 --> 0:59:29.400 that sounds hard, bro. But a lot of that stuff 0:59:29.480 --> 0:59:31.400 is so out of access to us, man, Like I'm 0:59:31.440 --> 0:59:34.600 talking about even decent fruits and vegetables. That's why I 0:59:34.720 --> 0:59:39.000 tell people, you know what I missed, the basic stuff. 0:59:39.000 --> 0:59:42.200 I've been brought to complaining man. Sometimes the house because 0:59:42.280 --> 0:59:45.480 we wasn't rich, but moms would make contenners sometimes and 0:59:45.520 --> 0:59:47.760 that after lasts for a few days, she would make 0:59:47.840 --> 0:59:50.640 a big pot of beans and some hot water bread 0:59:50.760 --> 0:59:53.600 or some or some corn bread with the butter milk 0:59:53.680 --> 0:59:55.760 in it. I'm gonna tell you, man, I told her that. 0:59:56.080 --> 0:59:57.680 I said, my mama missed that so bad. When I 0:59:57.760 --> 0:59:59.120 come on, I wants you to make a part of 0:59:59.200 --> 1:00:03.160 beans and some corn bread, some buttermelk corn bread. Corn 1:00:03.240 --> 1:00:08.400 Bread is still good though I love corn bread because 1:00:09.520 --> 1:00:12.800 we ain't l a and start eating crossocks and ship though. 1:00:12.960 --> 1:00:14.680 But that's what I'm saying, bro. But you know what, 1:00:14.880 --> 1:00:18.520 no dog, the way we was raised, Bro, the way 1:00:18.560 --> 1:00:20.280 we was raised, Bro, I think it was just way 1:00:20.360 --> 1:00:23.520 more healthier. But this is what I want to leave 1:00:23.640 --> 1:00:26.960 my brothers out there with my sisters, my Latino brothers. 1:00:28.040 --> 1:00:31.720 Go get checked out, man, know your status.
