Speaker 2: Yeah you can tell season two some of them was

26
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 2: like taped up, you know what I'm saying.

27
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 3: They had been through some of them had a hard time.

00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, well yo, thank y'all for having me. Man,

29
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: it's a pleasure to always be in the mix with

30
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 1: you rap. I know when we agreed to talk, it

31
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: was simpler.

32
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: Times it was it was Man, it's not so much

33
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 2: right now. Yeah, oh man, it's so much stuff to

34
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 2: catch up with you about. Man, Like last time we

35
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 2: had him on the show was twenty eleven, but we've

36
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 2: seen Roy since then. He came to Charlotte and we

37
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 2: got to go see him at the show. Hilarious, Like

38
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 2: you get this, go see Roy, he go see stand up.

39
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: Ever comes back, y'all, if it ever comes back.

40
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: It will it'll be in some weird capacity like that

41
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: heard it's comics right now doing shows that drive in

42
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: And I heard some other comedians doing shows like sitting

43
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: up a pickup truck and a PA speaker woy, like

44
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: in the middle of the like just in the middle

45
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: of a parking lot in biting people. And this is

46
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: New York, tho where people gonna show up right to

47
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: that type of stuff. I mean, you know, New York

48
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: is the home of street talking with a microphone, right,

49
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 1: so people are used to that. I can't do that

50
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 1: like you ain't gonna be able to pull up in

51
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: Nashville and a home depot.

52
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 3: And then.

53
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 2: So also like you know, since the pandemic hit man,

54
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 2: like the Daily Show is still going on, it's turned

55
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: to the Daily Social Distancing Show.

56
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: And I'm a religious watcher.

57
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 2: At the Daily Show, I watched it from John Stewart

58
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,519
Speaker 2: to Trevor Noah, and I feel like, you know, Trevor

59
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 2: Noah is so good at that fucking job. It's like

60
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 2: I feel like people went from like why they picked

61
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: this nigga, that like maybe maybe he.

62
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 3: Can explain what's going on in the world to make

63
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 3: me laugh. So that's dope.

64
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 2: But how is it recording now like remotely and then

65
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 2: doing like different skits and moving all that stuff zoom is.

66
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: It's been a process creatively, but you figure it out.

67
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 1: Like where I am right now, that's where we shoot

68
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: the show. So I spent the first two months of

69
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: quarantine in New York, me and my girl, our son,

70
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 1: and then you know, he's four man, he needs yard space.

71
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: You got to run around. So we drove sixteen hours

72
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 1: to Birmingham and so as soon as I got to

73
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: my mama's house, I was like yo, I need to

74
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: put a green screen up in your garage. Yo, yo,

75
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: I need a spot to post up and keep doing

76
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: what we do. And we figured out a way to

77
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: adjust creatively, because the thing that's like that's still hard

78
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: to nail is how fast to move like, you know,

79
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: not they say twenty five news cycle. I think we're

80
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: in an eight hour news cycle. This shit that happened

81
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: at eight in the morning, you won't even remember at

82
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 1: five thirty. True, if the day is crazy enough, you know,

83
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: So it's a matter of figuring out how late in

84
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: the day to shoot the show to make sure you're

85
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: capturing as much of what happened today as you could.

86
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: Like if you look at when the protests first started

87
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: turning from night from daytime to night time, you would

88
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: have a whole show that's just about the protests and

89
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: nothing about all of the unrest and stuff that started

90
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: going on. And and so I think that's the bigger

91
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,360
Speaker 1: issue with the show. But thankfully, you know, Trevor's been

92
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: able to keep you know, the core of the show together,

93
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: and you know, he's paying the crew that we aren't

94
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 1: using right now out of his own pocket, so we're

95
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: able to still keep cooking and still make the show

96
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: that we would have been doing in studio, because at

97
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: the end of the day, where there's pain, there's laughs, right,

98
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: and it's a matter of figuring out what the laugh

99
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,560
Speaker 1: is about depending on the severity of the wound. So

100
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 1: you know, you have to give some wound's time to heal.

101
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: But you know, it's been cool. It's challenging. Tomorrow is

102
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 1: gonna be challenging. We're back on the air on Monday. Yeah,

103
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be challenge, but you can't run from it.

104
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 3: And it's still The thing that.

105
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 2: I really love is that it's still funny, but it's

106
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 2: still informative, you know what I mean, because like it's

107
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 2: hard to watch the twenty four to seven like news

108
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: like that that that's too much really because like at

109
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 2: this point news isn't even really filtered anymore.

110
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 3: It's just straight up like we're live at the protest.

111
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: Ooh they just hit somebody else side their heads you

112
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 2: Joyanne reeg. We want to explain this shit, and so

113
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 2: like knowing, like comedy kind of provides a filter even

114
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 2: when you know, even when you're not trying to, but

115
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 2: it kind of provides a filter because you had to

116
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 2: take a raw thing converted into something funny, poignant, relevant, whatever,

117
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,039
Speaker 2: silly whatever, and then and then you're giving me the

118
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 2: same content.

119
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,800
Speaker 1: But that's why I'm anxious, man, Like I'm anxious to

120
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 1: get back on the air because we're the blackest show

121
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: in late night yep, in terms of minority. That ain't

122
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 1: a dig at everybody else, right, facts, right, we have

123
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: the blackest, most diverse cast. This is a fucking black issue, right,

124
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: So yo, let me add them. Give you, give you

125
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: your microphone in the script, Man, I'm ready to roll

126
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: in my mama's garage the camera.

127
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love.

128
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: And that's the thing, Like it's still it's funny, but

129
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: that anger, that sadness, that all that shit is in there,

130
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,280
Speaker 2: it's like it's like a fucking gumbo, you know what

131
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 2: I mean. Like it's it's all these different things that

132
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,920
Speaker 2: boil into like what makes it like such a great product? Man,

133
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 2: Because like I said, I watch the show every day

134
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 2: and it's always like, all right, we're still gonna find

135
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: a way to make comedy out of tragedy essentially.

136
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's not in any way to ever disregard, right,

137
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 1: It's about bringing attention to it and making sure that

138
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: we're focused on the right things that will facilitate change

139
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: and not just do another walk around the Marry Go

140
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: round of pr statements and political social media, digital black

141
00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: square hugs and shit like that, right, and making sure

142
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: that we are doing things that are actionable. But you

143
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: can laugh along the way. Yeah, that's all we're trying

144
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: to do. And you know, Trevor's ahead of the snake

145
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: with that. And the thing that I envy, the thing

146
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,679
Speaker 1: that I've always envy with Trevor, I think the biggest

147
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: difference between him and say me, Jabuki young White and

148
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: dull S Saloon, who are the other black folks on

149
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: the show, I think I think the biggest difference is

150
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: that because Trevor came up in South Africa with apartheid,

151
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: apartheid was very clear and cut and dry. You ain't shit,

152
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: you ain't gonna never be shit. This is where you

153
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: ain't shit. Motherfucker's supposed to go live now, go over

154
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: there and don't be ship. So it's more clear cut.

155
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: Whereas when you grow up in like like me, and

156
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 1: they'll say and Jabuki, when you grow up in eighties

157
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: nineties racism, it's everything's great, nigger right, No, everything's fine

158
00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: Black people.

159
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 3: Are you could be president nigger? Yes, So we've.

160
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 1: Received this mixed message. So now there's a there's an anger,

161
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 1: there's a betrayal in the underlying of our feelings as

162
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: Black Americans versus South African And I think where Trevor

163
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: comes from is a much more level place because to

164
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: get the jokes to really land, the jokes, they can't

165
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: always be from an angry place. Right, It's a there.

166
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: It just as a comedy show in terms of execution,

167
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: because there's been days where I've been mad and the

168
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: motherfucker I wish there was footage and this is this

169
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:42,439
Speaker 1: seems so trivial now, but at the time when when

170
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: April Rain started, Oscar so Black, the Oscar so White,

171
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: and the day the Academy Award nominations came out, we

172
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: had a Black people meeting in the break room that morning,

173
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: Like there's a morning meeting at the Daily Show at

174
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:55,959
Speaker 1: nine am. We're all the writers and producers all get

175
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: together discuss the issues. Black people had a separate meeting

176
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: at eight thirty about the Oscar nominations right straight out

177
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: of company. You're telling me what the fucking creek we

178
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 1: had an opportunity to get all of that vitriol out

179
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: of our system so that you could then go and

180
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: make the show and figure out where the jokes are

181
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: in the midst of that anger. And you know, because

182
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: I grew up with the betrayal, I can be angry

183
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: sometimes to the point of not being able to create

184
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 1: productive comedy in that moment. Yeah, and that's something that's

185
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 1: and that's something Trevor doesn't have, which I respect. So

186
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 1: it's like I can pull trips to say and go, Nigga,

187
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:37,839
Speaker 1: this is what you need to say.

188
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, they've had like truth they've had like truth and

189
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 2: reconciliation meetings in South Africa. Like in South Africa, they

190
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: had like a come to the table, like what we're

191
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 2: gonna do we acknowledge?

192
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, we don't get no acknowledgement, like we don't know

193
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:56,360
Speaker 4: what y'all talking about.

194
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think the other part of it, and

195
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 2: I like, like, I I love the show. So when

196
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 2: they hired Trevor and people, you know, like he's not

197
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 2: even from here, and shit, I was like, that's kind

198
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 2: of good though, because we got to watch him go

199
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 2: through like it's almost like an introduction to like America.

200
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 2: News and racism and shit on the air daily, you

201
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: know what I mean. So it's like five four times

202
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: a week. We watched this dude kind of go from like,

203
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 2: hey man, it can't be that bad to like, oh,

204
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 2: this is fucking bad. And I still remember the episode

205
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 2: where he talked about Filando Castile and all these people

206
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 2: are sharing so viral and shit, and I was like,

207
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 2: you're kind of watching the dude come into what like

208
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 2: get to know our shit to be like, oh, this

209
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,559
Speaker 2: is Oh, it's a different kind of fucked up, like

210
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 2: y'all dealing with something else.

211
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 3: And I, you know, I appreciate that.

212
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: There's there's an old segment from year one of Trevor

213
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: where he compared Donald. He said, if you find on YouTube,

214
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 1: it's called Donald Trump is an African.

215
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, And so.

216
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: He breaks down everything that Mugave and all the other

217
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: people in Africa and the way they've been treating their people,

218
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: and he want to runs the actions of African dictators

219
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: to what Trump had been doing up until that point.

220
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 1: And I think that was a light bulb moment for

221
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 1: a lot of people as well, where it's on some

222
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:19,160
Speaker 1: ship where oh he has been through all of this

223
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: before right, yeah, okay, Like.

224
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 3: How we going, how we want to get through this? Bro?

225
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: You we got some tips, you know.

226
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: And I just think that we need a lot of

227
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: different type of black voices in this fight. I think

228
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: we need a lot of different approaches to the solutions.

229
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,600
Speaker 1: And I think the stick that Trevor yields is probably,

230
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: you know, very important. But what I also love is

231
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 1: that he don't hold me back, right and if it's

232
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: something black and black that I want to go, do

233
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: ye go do that ship. We walked through this. We

234
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 1: walked through the South side of Chicago with some real

235
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 1: og gangster disciples who trying to clean up the neighborhood.

236
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: And we found jokes, but we also found levity in that.

237
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: My first my first two stories this is this is

238
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 1: one of the daily shows on some different shiit. My

239
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: first two stories on the Daily show was a police

240
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:22,920
Speaker 1: studying police bias training in Madison, Wisconsin, and the Madison

241
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: Police Department had just had a similar killed a black person.

242
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 1: You didn't have no business killing type incident, and we

243
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 1: went in to have a real talk with the police chief,

244
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: like that's a serious issue. That's week one at the Bishop.

245
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 1: The next piece I pitched The next piece I pitched

246
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 1: was the twentieth anniversary of the Million Man March. And

247
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 1: you know, you just you just say some shit to

248
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 1: your white boss and be like, dang, you're gonna approve

249
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: this shit, right, So what you wanna do for your

250
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: next story? U? You know what? I think? I want

251
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 1: to take some cameras down to Washington, DC and walk

252
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: with these black pe people that's marching to see where

253
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: we are from nineteen ninety five till now. Trevor's like, okay, yes,

254
00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:14,400
Speaker 1: go And so you know, we've been able to tackle

255
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 1: you know, at least, I've been able to tackle a

256
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,800
Speaker 1: lot of real shit where there is a little more anger,

257
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: where there is a little more vitriol about the issues, right,

258
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: And so you know, I think in that regard, you know,

259
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: Trevor's been on point and the show has been on

260
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: point with that. It's just that I feel like everything

261
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: we've done for the last four years has just been

262
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: preparing us for you know, the coming weeks of you know,

263
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: where the country goes from here, and you know, the

264
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,199
Speaker 1: types of stories that we tell on this show are

265
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: going to be pivotal in you know, helping people see

266
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: your way through. But also keeping the foot on the

267
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: neck and the motherfucker's that's responsible for this type of

268
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 1: system being in place.

269
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 2: There's definitely a different environment, man, like a thing I've

270
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 2: seen before, because I mean, you got the pandemic. Everybody's

271
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 2: in their house, then you got to protest. Everybody's out

272
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 2: the house, and you got to got jobs. Yeah, you

273
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 2: got the Maga protest, which is a totally different protest

274
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 2: when they ain't in the house. All this shit is

275
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 2: colliding at the same time, and then you know, at

276
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 2: the core of I think I just have such an

277
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 2: appreciation for comedy is because at the core of it,

278
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 2: it's still to get to a goal. But they're like, like,

279
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 2: I've never watched the show and been like, this ship

280
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 2: ain't even funny because that's life.

281
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 3: Life has already had some this shit ain't even funny.

282
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: I'm always like, I still have such I still have

283
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 2: such appreciation because I'm always like, yo, this ship is

284
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: still funny.

285
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 3: Like like I don't know how.

286
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 2: And it got longer too, like the Daily Show now

287
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: is like thirty eight minutes or something.

288
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 1: Yet show, Yeah, Comedy Central canclad And they were like, you.

289
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 2: Know what, it's a lot going on, yo, and like

290
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 2: I said, tremendous appreciation for that. Like I also watch

291
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 2: Dan Levatar's Highly Questionable, which I love that show as well.

292
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 2: But it had to get shorter, you know what I mean,

293
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 2: Like there's no sports you know now, like you talk

294
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 2: a little bit about the issues, you know, maybe play

295
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 2: a couple of viral clips, you make jokes and stuff.

296
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 2: But now it's like a twenty minute show when it

297
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: used to be a thirty minute show because you know,

298
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,920
Speaker 2: people feel like it's not as much material or there's

299
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 2: a lot of material we don't want to touch, and

300
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 2: y'all still find a way to not y'all do more

301
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 2: now than y'all did before.

302
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been dope, man. Then He's been able to

303
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: get a lot of different people that are on the

304
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: front lines of all this. Trevor been talking to a

305
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 1: gang of mayors yo, you know, and I think the

306
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 1: thing we're going to have to change just as correspondence,

307
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: it's probably some of the pieces Like I did a

308
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 1: piece right before our break two weeks ago, a piece

309
00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 1: of Mind Eric, where I spoke with this black barber

310
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 1: out of Harlem, Chris Brown, and just talked about, you know,

311
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: with black haircare professionals, how are you surviving with no customers? Right?

312
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: And then we had him show me how to cut

313
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: your hair in your house and so that was the segment.

314
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: And that's dope. It's speaking to something black professionals are

315
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: going through. But now that ain't the type of piece

316
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: that was even I don't even know if we can

317
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: air that right now, Like that's one you would have

318
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: to put on the back burner. But at the time

319
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,480
Speaker 1: that felt right. So you know, it's our jobs as

320
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: correspondence to capture the field of what's going on in

321
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: the streets and then go out and get that and

322
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: right now to feel in the streets niggas ain't worried

323
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,000

00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 3: I saw the blacks.

Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw the I saw the one with the

350
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,880
Speaker 2: black couple, and people was like, you know, it's tacky.

351
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 2: They got married at the protest. This is about George Floyd.

352
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 2: And then later so like that morning, everybody was like

353
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: fuck them. And then later it was like some one said,

354
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 2: I guess that new one was like, no, they already

355
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,479
Speaker 2: had a wedding date planned. The venue won't let them,

356
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 2: wouldn't let them cancel. Uh, this march was playing two

357
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 2: days ago, so clearly they couldn't have fucking known they

358
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 2: were getting married anyway.

359
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 3: And then they walked out and was like, well, fuck it,

360
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 3: and now were protesting and I was like, oh, that's

361
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:26,199
Speaker 3: totally different.

362
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 2: But imagine if you would have made like a piece

363
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,119
Speaker 2: on that or a segment or jokes on that, and

364
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 2: literally by that night it's like, you can't use them jokes,

365
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:35,679
Speaker 2: that's not even what fucking happened.

366
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 3: Now you're just piling on these black.

367
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: People and see. And that's where Trevor has an advantage

368
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: over me, because my ass would have put up a

369
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 1: whole set and then Trevor would have been like, let

370
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 1: us wait, let's see and analyze the reaction. You want

371
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: to capture the thing, Like when you're looking at what

372
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 1: to build jokes from everybody saying it was a black couple. Okay, cool,

373
00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: so it's a black couple. When you're looking at the

374
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: materials from which to can struct a joke, right, you

375
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: have the event, you have whatever it was, the people

376
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: or the things that caused the event to happen, and

377
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: you have the fallout from the event. Those are essentially

378
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: the three quadrants of any issue in the world. Right,

379
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: Whereas I will just see the thing happen, was like, no,

380
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 1: let's see what the reactions are and see how people

381
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 1: are responding to it, and then there's jokes in that

382
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 1: and that's when you start like it's almost like you

383
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: have to get Fox News a day to see what

384
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:35,679
Speaker 1: they think about it as well to really boil down

385
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:37,000
Speaker 1: you know an issue.

386
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 2: Well, it's that formula, right, tragedy plus time equal comedy,

387
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,080
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Whereas like the and I

388
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 2: think now wouldenever pay that phrase anyway? Now social media

389
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: and shit like time has become the thing that we

390
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 2: don't wait for anymore. It's like immediate thoughts, immediate you know,

391
00:19:55,520 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 2: immediate jokes, immediate observations, a media analysis, and and it's

392
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 2: completely it's always in that mode, you know what I mean.

393
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 2: And I think that's what separates kind of the professional

394
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 2: from the from the the amateur, the professional from just

395
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 2: the regular commentators, that there is a process where you're

396
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 2: supposed to be like, oh, let's refine it.

397
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: The other thing is that we're a television show, so

398
00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: I'm supposed to give you something that you can't get

399
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 1: anywhere else. So if that's what everybody's spitting on Twitter,

400
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: what the fuck I look like on the Daily Show

401
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 1: saying the same shit you see in your feet?

402
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 3: Right?

403
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: So I have to wait a second to really dig

404
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: deeper and find the other angle to the issue or

405
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 1: the cause of the factor. And that it like I

406
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:43,440
Speaker 1: give you a perfect example. So Minneapolis Police Department said

407
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: that they're banning the choke hold, right, they said they're

408
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,880
Speaker 1: banning the choke hold, and the article went out two

409
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 1: days ago, and everybody says, hip hit parade, they're banning

410
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 1: the choke hold, and they are. They are. This is

411
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 1: keep marching people, and that's just how you can actually

412
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 1: have a man. But then when you dig, you find

413
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 1: out that the only thing they're banning is the choke

414
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 1: hold from the back of the neck. You can still

415
00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: chuck your suspect from the side in the front, my nigga,

416
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: What the fuck is that?

417
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 3: Right?

418
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:17,440
Speaker 1: So it's almost like you have to see the propaganda

419
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: or the smoke screen that's being put up and then

420
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 1: go beyond that. And that's what our job is, the show.

421
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,399
Speaker 1: And we could call band in the back of the

422
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:28,880
Speaker 1: neck a victory. That's fine, it's a victory, But let

423
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: me show you how much more we got to climb.

424
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,159
Speaker 1: It's like the victory barnatdo cartoon for The New Yorker,

425
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: a couple of days ago, where you show the white

426
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: man exhausted and he looks like he's climbed the mountain,

427
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:40,719
Speaker 1: but then a black person is pointing to show them

428
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,439
Speaker 1: how much more of a summit he has to go

429
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: up to. So if everybody captured the choke hold story

430
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: at eight o'clock in the morning, by five pm when

431
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 1: you find out the rest of those details, it's like,

432
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: that's what the story is. It's not the choke Hoo band,

433
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 1: it's how is this legal? But hard this is illegal,

434
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 1: but you still do this? This is how right rights

435
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: not a lot of this ship happened somebody from trying

436
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: to choke the ship out of somebody.

437
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 2: Right, And keep in mind, the choke hold was banned

438
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 2: when Eric Gardner was killed. It was banned in New York,

439
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 2: So like, you know, even even that is not a

440
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 2: guarantee of progress even you know, and I think you

441
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 2: know that, Like that's that is the absurdity is what

442
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 2: the comedy is with racism. You know, we have a

443
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,360
Speaker 2: segment on the show fucking with Black people, and it's

444
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,760
Speaker 2: and it's pretty much us being like this is so

445
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,359
Speaker 2: fucked up, we gotta laugh. If like, if it wasn't

446
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 2: for this like, if it wasn't for this, motherfuckers just

447
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 2: be in the streets like ripping shirts off and burn

448
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 2: You know, I also saw that you did on your

449
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 2: Twitter feed. You went out and helped with like the

450
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 2: clean up for some of the local area.

451
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 3: What was that Like?

452
00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, so so we had man. I could talk all

453
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: day about that Sunday and Monday in Birmingham, but uh,

454
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 1: the long and short of it is that you know,

455
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 1: young gins and some out of town has came through

456
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,880
Speaker 1: and did what they did after the peaceful protests tan

457
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,359
Speaker 1: shit up. And so there's a woman, doctor Wannakee Adams,

458
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 1: who's the first black female optometrist in the state of Alabama,

459
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 1: and her offices have been in the Civil Rights District

460
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 1: for the last forty years, and so you know, her

461
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: place was one of the spots that got torn up,

462
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 1: and so she was on the news live at like

463
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: one point thirty in the morning, and I'm sitting on

464
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: the couch. My ass should have been in bed, but

465
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 1: I see her, and so I threw out a tweet

466
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,400
Speaker 1: to Birmingham folks. I'm like, Yo, if you you got

467
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: some energy, let's pull up and we're gonna fix this.

468
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: Lady we're gonna clean up this woman's spot. And so

469
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 1: we ended up cleaning up her spot. It's a black

470
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,640
Speaker 1: on doctor, black OneD pediatric center, all within the same

471
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 1: block right there on Fifth Avenue, and we were out

472
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 1: there for two three hours. White folks, black folks, young folks.

473
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:10,719
Speaker 1: A homeless dude pulled up on my tweet if so,

474
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 1: how are you on Twitter? Sir? But okay, that's fine,

475
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 1: happy you're here. And we cleaned up this spot. Comedian

476
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: Jermaine funny Man Johnson, he came through. Uh he put

477
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 1: down one thousand dollars you know, in her hand on

478
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 1: the spot to help her reveal. We started to go

479
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,119
Speaker 1: fund me. The city of Birmingham came through and they

480
00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: have a small Business Recovery fund because it wasn't just

481
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,919
Speaker 1: a businesses on that block that got messed up. Uh,

482
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,360
Speaker 1: there were a lot of like historical museums that got

483
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 1: torn up, there were a lot of there's some white

484
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,400
Speaker 1: on spots. I mean, white people were coming through as well.

485
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: And so the story that I hope that people take

486
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 1: away from Alabama. And the only reason is why I

487
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: try to tell the story now is because you know,

488
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 1: everybody's got an opinion on what Alabama is right, and everybody, everybody,

489
00:24:58,000 --> 00:24:59,919
Speaker 1: you know, you get your jokes off about Jess Sai

490
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 1: Sessions and Roy Moore, and that's fine, We've earned those jokes.

491
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 1: But then you also have a brother, like you know

492
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: Jermaine Johnson, who at the end of the peaceful protests

493
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,880
Speaker 1: on Sunday told the crowd, Yo, it's a Confederate monument

494
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 1: a block away. What do you say we go try

495
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:20,600
Speaker 1: and tear that bitch down, right? And the protesters was like.

496
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 3: Let's go, let's go, so.

497
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:26,719
Speaker 1: They went over there. You got to find the footage

498
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 1: ride the shit is hilarious, man, black folks. Somebody tied

499
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:34,400
Speaker 1: a pickup truck with a rope to fifty thousand ton

500
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,639
Speaker 1: Confederate monument and tried to pull it down with a

501
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: pickup truck. And that's how fit up we were racism.

502
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: We was like, they get put a rope around this shit.

503
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 1: And it got to the point where the mayor had

504
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: to come out and the mayor. The mayor told the

505
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: people that are out there, like, yo, don't tear it

506
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: up like this. This ain't the way to do it.

507
00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 1: Give me two days, Give me two days, and I

508
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 1: have it down. This is Sunday night, he said, I

509
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: have this down by Tuesday. By Tuesday, I'll have this down.

510
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 1: And the man kept his word. By Monday night, the

511
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: cranes was out there and they was chopping down the

512
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: Confederate monument in the city of Birmingham that's been standing

513
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: there for one hundred and fifteen years. And so that

514
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,440
Speaker 1: came from one man taking the initiative and another man

515
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: taking action. Then, because it's a state controlled monument. I

516
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,640
Speaker 1: don't have time to get into the details of it. Yeah,

517
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 1: that's footage right there. They just had a pickaxe if

518
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: you had whatever they could get their hands on to

519
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 1: try and take down this mont. So the state of

520
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: Alabama filed a lawsuit against the city of Birmingham and

521
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: told them that they couldn't that you can't take this

522
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 1: monument down, right, And they said, if you take this

523
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: monument down, we're gonna find you twenty five thousand dollars.

524
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: We're going to find the city twenty five thousand dollars. Well,

525
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,200
Speaker 1: a white woman pastor and dam heard about the fine.

526
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: She set up a GoFundMe. That bitch got eighty thousand,

527
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: and they're gonna pay the fine and give the difference

528
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 1: to black rights Organizay. Wow, So so Alabama too.

529
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 2: Right, and that that's the thing too, Like I feel

530
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:10,879
Speaker 2: like we don't get like in the South.

531
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 3: Oh sorry, hold on, you got broke up. Roy said that.

532
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 1: Again Cat when Cat's file off the joke, and like

533
00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: that is too.

534
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 3: I caught up.

535
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you caught up. You said that's out. That's

536
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 2: Alabama too right.

537
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: You know when you look at there's racism in this state,

538
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 1: but everyone else outside of this state disregards this place.

539
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 1: So the only people who are going to save Alabama

540
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: is going to be people from Alabama, every single person

541
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 1: in that story that I just told you as a

542
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: Birmingham resident. Right, So that's where the change comes from.

543
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:48,719
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm always coming back to that. That's

544
00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: why I tried to didn't try That's why I shot

545
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,560
Speaker 1: my Comedy Central sitcom here last year. I shot my

546
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,360
Speaker 1: pilot in the city Limbits, in the same civil rights district,

547
00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: two blocks away from the pickup truck. Right, So that's

548
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: also Alabama. And I think that's what's starting to happen

549
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: when you look at what's and then then from that,

550
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:14,120
Speaker 1: now all these Confederate monuments catching straights yes, where Mobile

551
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 1: took theirs down. Richmond, Virginia took theirs down. There's another

552
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 1: spot in Virginia that has a slave option, the fucking

553
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: rock that slaves used to stand on. Yep, get that

554
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 1: shit out of here. Yeah, So that doesn't happen if

555
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: you don't have this initial movement and push from what

556
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 1: happened with you know, with George Floyd. And I think

557
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: that's the important thing that people have to you know

558
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 1: that you know, with Floyd and Breonna, like to make

559
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,480
Speaker 1: sure that we don't let those people die in Vain

560
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: and we keep this momentum going. Yeah.

561
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 2: I think it's interesting too because one when the South,

562
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 2: when people aren't from down here, they always had this

563
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 2: like broad sleeping view of like everyone down here just

564
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,640
Speaker 2: sitting around taking it or a green with this shit,

565
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 2: and it's motherfucker's fighting. And it's so crazy because like

566
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 2: most of your civil rights movement leaders in the history

567
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 2: of America.

568
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 3: Come from down here.

569
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 2: Like it was people down here being like I'm fed

570
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:14,640
Speaker 2: up with this shit and I'm not taking it no

571
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 2: more and literally putting their lives on the line, dying

572
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 2: to fucking vote, dying to get civil rights with people

573
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 2: and shit getting beat by with dogs and shit like

574
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 2: how you gonna look at us like we don't got

575
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 2: no heart, or like our vote should be dismissed and

576
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 2: shit like that.

577
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 3: So you know, in North Carolina we fight for every day.

578
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 1: That's why when I saw that tweet that's going around,

579
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: I don't remember. I apologize. I don't remember the originally

580
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 1: young Lady posted it. But if you go to Janelle

581
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: Monae's Twitter, Janelle Monnet retweeted it where it's a woman,

582
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: it's a Birmingham resident, legitimately concerned about when the class.

583
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 1: So the klan was supposed to come on Wednesday and

584
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: just shoot niggas at random in the streets. That was

585
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 1: the rumor, right, which is not an uncommon rumor in

586
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: Alabama from time to time. But I think the difference

587
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: is that, you know, because the original tweet was basically, wow,

588
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: the clan cast the whole the city shut down early.

589
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: They sent home everyone downtown at like two o'clock because

590
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: the clan coming, Clan coming, and the mayor had been

591
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 1: getting death threats and bomb threats at city Hall because

592
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 1: of what he did at the Confederate Monument Monday, which

593
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: is all that's part of the game. I hate to

594
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 1: say think that was coming, but there was this like

595
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: Twitter seems to carry this sentiment of of ooh, the

596
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 1: clan was down there, and why wasn't this a national story.

597
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,600
Speaker 1: It wasn't a national story because of the clan. Colm.

598
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: Niggas are standing tall and they asked for so, you know,

599
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: regardless of what was But you know, fear and intimidation

600
00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,840
Speaker 1: are no longer tools in your tool belt against the

601
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 1: black race. I'm sorry to tell you that.

602
00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 2: Did y'all did you see the video on a Black

603
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:02,320
Speaker 2: Lives Matter protests where they had the white supremacists with

604
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 2: vest one and guns and they was all lined up

605
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,480
Speaker 2: against their own fences in the backyard looking at the protests.

606
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 2: They went down the street and I watched that video.

607
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,840
Speaker 2: First of all, one of the news stations blared out

608
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 2: the white supremacist faces, but not the black people that

609
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 2: were protesting, which make that make sense. Then the second

610
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 2: one was as the black people got closer, they kept

611
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,280
Speaker 2: turning their heads looking away like they you have a

612
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,840
Speaker 2: fucking gun, shades.

613
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 3: A bulletproof vest one. These people are unarmed.

614
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:34,400
Speaker 2: They just black and won't rights, and you'll turn away

615
00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 2: like I can't no problems like she was insane.

616
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,959
Speaker 3: Oh shit, we lost Roy for a second, all right

617
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 3: and boom, all.

618
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 2: Right, little technical difficulties in the background, guys, or we

619
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 2: got Roy back. We were just talking about the removal

620
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 2: of Confederate statues and the black people down south of shit,

621
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 2: and I know in North Carolina it's a fight like that.

622
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, we can't get on in the streets. We get

623
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 3: him on that, damn well, shooting routers down there.

624
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: Now the thing up for you? There we go. We

625
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: just switched to the phone. I don't know my laptop

626
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 1: going through.

627
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 2: Okay, no problem, man, But yeah, so uh. Also, you've

628
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 2: been acting a lot more since we've seen you, man, Like,

629
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 2: like I see I feel like now it's a pleasant surprise.

630
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 2: I feel like you don't really promote your acting enough

631
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 2: on Twitter and stuff, because I never really know when

632
00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,720
Speaker 2: you and shit, I just turned shit on and I'll

633
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 2: be like, oh, shits like this, what's up? You know,

634
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 2: talk about it nowhere You'll be like, oh nice, Yeah,

635
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 2: what's it like acting more?

636
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 3: And like you know, auditioning or all that type of stuff.

637
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:44,000
Speaker 3: What's that process?

638
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 1: Like? It's fun. It's fun, man. I like to be

639
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 1: able to drop in on stuff. I think something that's

640
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: really understated, and it's something them a circle back around

641
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: to later this summer. But the amount of black people

642
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: that trace and has shown love to on the Last

643
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 1: oh G in terms of guest roles, especially black comedians,

644
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,760
Speaker 1: black women as well, it's innumerable, and so to be

645
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 1: able to just be on set, plus ultimately, I want

646
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 1: to create content. That's what power is. Power. Acting is cool.

647
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:20,120
Speaker 1: But Kenya Bears got a hindred million for three years

648
00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 1: from Netflix just to make shit. He didn't have to

649
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 1: be in Black as Fuck. He chose to be, but

650
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 1: his money was going to be the same. So I

651
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 1: look at it as an opportunity to act and be

652
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,440
Speaker 1: able to you know, to pop in on Better Call Saul.

653
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: That's dope, Like that's to be part of the Breaking

654
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,760
Speaker 1: Bad universe is just cool in general. But I look

655
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: at this shit low key as college. I never got

656
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: to go to film school. My mom ain't had a bread,

657
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 1: I couldn't get the loans, so I get to learn

658
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 1: on set. I'm befriend motherfuckers. Anybody that look like they cool,

659
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: and to talk to me, I'm in your face. I'm

660
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: asking questions because when it's time to make my shows

661
00:33:56,560 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: and to do my things. I want to be able

662
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: to have as much knowledge as I can, right, you know,

663
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: on the process of it all, Like to work with

664
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: Steve to be in space force is one thing, But

665
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:11,160
Speaker 1: then to have a scene with Steve Carrell and John Michaelviitch,

666
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,800
Speaker 1: that's like, did you see this man work? And I

667
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,919
Speaker 1: don't even want to get a recipe away of how

668
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,319
Speaker 1: he creates what he does in the room, but to

669
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 1: be able to see that and let I know that shit,

670
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 1: that might be something I'll do the next time I'm

671
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 1: on camera somewhere, so you know, it's dope.

672
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 2: And how much like did you see yourself being like

673
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 2: an actor when you were doing like stand up you know,

674
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 2: you know, in college and stuff like that, Like was

675
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 2: that on the vision board too?

676
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 1: A little? But I just more just wanted to just

677
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 1: sell out comedy clubs. That's all I wanted. I mean,

678
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: but you're given. The mistake you make as a young

679
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: entertainer is that you inherit the goals of your predecessors,

680
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 1: not realizing that by the time time you get to

681
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 1: those mile markers, the gold posters moved further back, and

682
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,160
Speaker 1: that like for example, when I was a young comic,

683
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 1: they always everybody got opened for. It was trying to

684
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,040
Speaker 1: get on Letterman or trying to get on Comic View. Right,

685
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 1: if you get them, tell your nigga. If you get

686
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: on BP Comment View, that's when you start getting money, right,

687
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 1: And when you get on David Letterman. David Letterman, Oh

688
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: that when the white folks get And there was a

689
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: time where you could do either those shows and walk

690
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 1: off stage or be handed a career. But by the

691
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: time I got it, it was still a respected credit.

692
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: But Letterman and O six ain't Letterman in ninety six, right,

693
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 1: So it was, oh, I need to be looking ahead

694
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 1: of the curve and seeing what's next and seeing what's

695
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: down the road. So, you know, to be able to

696
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:48,359
Speaker 1: be a part of the Daily Show helps that as well,

697
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 1: because that's the other cool thing is that we shoot

698
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 1: a lot of sketches on the show. So that's film

699
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: school too, you know, so we have opportunities to shoot long,

700
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: deformed stuff with you know, proper direct the proper everything.

701
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 1: So it's given me more of an itch. But you know,

702
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: my five years of comedy essential I've been obsessed with

703
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 1: just trying to produce Man you know, we got the

704
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: Probation sitcom. There's an animated show that I sold about

705
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:19,520
Speaker 1: Black fatherhood, a team with the latina Danny Smith. We

706
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,920
Speaker 1: sold a script over to HBO Max about dealing with

707
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:29,200
Speaker 1: depression and suicide. That's a comedy too. So it's bigger

708
00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 1: than just trying to act as much as it is

709
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 1: creating projects that speak to a bigger part of the

710
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,800
Speaker 1: black experience and just what underdogs are going through in general.

711
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: And the way you get those projects pushed through is

712
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,720
Speaker 1: by people knowing that you've already swam in those waters.

713
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: If I do a scene with Steve Carrell, or you

714
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 1: see me in Breaking Bad, or you see me in

715
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 1: Excuse Me, if you see me in Better Call Saul,

716
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:02,960
Speaker 1: then you question less my level of creative competency to

717
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: do all the shit that I actually want to do.

718
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 1: So I think that's where being able to pop in

719
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: on all of these other shows it helps, because then

720
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,640
Speaker 1: that gives you an opportunity to maybe, like you, look

721
00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:17,560
Speaker 1: at what look at what j L's did on Insecure? Right,

722
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 1: j Lis j Let's flip that shit from being a

723
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: series regular Insecure to acting and other stuff. He's an

724
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:30,360
Speaker 1: escape room. He's supposed to be in this top Ground sequel,

725
00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,320
Speaker 1: and then you look up and hoole the nigga directed

726
00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:37,640
Speaker 1: an episode of Insecure this season. That's growth, that's evolution,

727
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,759
Speaker 1: and that's it's about learning and seeing everything that there

728
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,319
Speaker 1: is to do in Hollywood. And so for me, it's

729
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 1: not just about acting acting school. But that's not the

730
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,239
Speaker 1: be all end all of this shit, because that'd be

731
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:51,879
Speaker 1: the quickest way they get you to fuck up out

732
00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,760
Speaker 1: of here. At the moment you got too many gray hairs.

733
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,480
Speaker 1: You at a Hamburgers, and I'm going to fuck the

734
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: position because I'm too skinny. I'm too fat to be

735
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:06,640
Speaker 1: I'm too big to be handsome, but I'm too skinny

736
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,600
Speaker 1: to play the fat black friend.

737
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:13,359
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, you gotta pick a lamb like It's like

738
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 6: I'm not quite big enough to be like Anthony Anderson

739
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:18,880
Speaker 6: played it perfectly.

740
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:22,400
Speaker 1: Anthony Anderson front half of his career, Big Black Friend.

741
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 1: Right then he went on to shaved about forty pounds

742
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: when your niggas and now he's the selts husting and

743
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,399
Speaker 1: get the beard and the edge up, Like I would

744
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 1: have to lose about fifteen more pounds to get that

745
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: Anthony Anderson money and I don't know how to let

746
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:36,279
Speaker 1: go cheeseburgers rock.

747
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 2: I mean, these pop chicken sandwiches is delicious. Okay, the

748
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 2: videos ain't gonna fiel themselves.

749
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,240
Speaker 3: I know it's too tempting, Cam, What are you gonna say?

750
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 4: What is the difference between because you're you're around our

751
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 4: age where you've been pre internet and post internet through

752
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,920
Speaker 4: your comedy career, how has like the internet and online

753
00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 4: kind of you've seen the childe change how you view

754
00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:04,439
Speaker 4: comedy because you know a lot of people are either

755
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,520
Speaker 4: post which means everything they do is for the Internet,

756
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 4: or they pre and they don't want to change over.

757
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,799
Speaker 4: But you've made that transition where you kind of have

758
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 4: changed over.

759
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 3: So what is the big difference that you see?

760
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 1: I think the big difference is the type of jokes

761
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,720
Speaker 1: that you create. You know, when you're doing comedy alive

762
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,120
Speaker 1: or you're doing like a podcast, you can do more

763
00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 1: long form thoughts, whereas if you look at what a

764
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:35,200
Speaker 1: lot of internet comedy is and it's still comedy. And

765
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,759
Speaker 1: I also don't like, I'm not a fan of people

766
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: who put internet comedy in some sort of lower tier

767
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:47,560
Speaker 1: or some sort of that's that's that's Internet comedy, No, nigga,

768
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 1: it is comedy. It's making a lot of money, it's

769
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: doing a lot of heads, there's a lot of eyeballs.

770
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 1: Your goal is an entertainer, period point blank, is to

771
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: get as many people to know about you so that

772
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 1: when you show up in their city, they buy a

773
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 1: ticket to see you live, period, full stop. So you

774
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,319
Speaker 1: can hate these little young internet niggas if you won't,

775
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: but they pulling up in your town and they selling

776
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: tickets around your mucky ass. So you can either talk

777
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: shit about them, or you can study them and see

778
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 1: what the business model is and how they connect and

779
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: figure out a way of what you do how that

780
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: can be infused into their style of connecting with people.

781
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,239
Speaker 1: I think it's quicker, I think it's real. I think

782
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: it's there's a certain level. I don't really know what

783
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 1: bucket to put it in, but I think a lot

784
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 1: of Internet comedy is rooted in truisms like if you

785
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:45,080
Speaker 1: look back at remember, like I'm trying to think, when

786
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 1: I was at the radio station, my last year in

787
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 1: radio was twenty twelve, so let's just say eight ten

788
00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 1: years ago, when everybody was doing that moment when or

789
00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,400
Speaker 1: people who's such and such be like this thinking was

790
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 1: it Francester Ramsey that started that? Like girls be Like?

791
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,360
Speaker 1: And it was junk and cut. There was no set up,

792
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,240
Speaker 1: a punchline. Those are just all observational jokes that connect

793
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,439
Speaker 1: with the truism and the shared experience that we all

794
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 1: have as a society. So there's a great deal of

795
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,720
Speaker 1: internet comedy that taps into that fielding of what everyone

796
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 1: is thinking in the moment, and then you retweet it

797
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 1: because yeah, that's what I'd be thinking, ha ha ha.

798
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 1: So if you're able to take that and then infuse

799
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:34,160
Speaker 1: and add your own point of view or opinions into it,

800
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 1: to me, that's something that's another level to it. But

801
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 1: I think there's something to internet comedy. I mean, you know, like,

802
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell you who said it because I

803
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:51,360
Speaker 1: don't want to start no shit, But somebody tweeted something

804
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 1: along the lines at the beginning. This is at the

805
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:59,960
Speaker 1: very beginning of Quarantine. Somebody tweeted something along the line.

806
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:04,359
Speaker 1: So all the comedians was talking about internet comics. Now,

807
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 1: y'all all in comics.

808
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:11,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, hey, look, as a podcaster man, that was the podcast,

809
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 2: I was like, welcome to our world podcasting Now right.

810
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:16,799
Speaker 3: I remember when it was a joke.

811
00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 2: I remember when this joint was getting started, and it

812
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 2: was a lot of people that was like looking.

813
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 3: Down on it, or you know, why the hell I

814
00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 3: want to do that?

815
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 2: You know, and all this ship and now like every

816
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 2: comedian just about got some kind of a podcast.

817
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:30,759
Speaker 3: Right, everybody.

818
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,439
Speaker 4: I call myself, I'm not a stand up comedian because

819
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,400
Speaker 4: I don't I hadn't traveled enough. I call myself a

820
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,760
Speaker 4: sit down comedian. I sit down and I tell my jokes.

821
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 2: And then the other part of it is with a

822
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 2: lot of the with a lot of the stuff is

823
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,479
Speaker 2: it's becoming interwoven. Right, So you have to become good

824
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,239
Speaker 2: at a lot of the ship and the people that

825
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 2: want to elevate, that want to get better, they're taking

826
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:53,840
Speaker 2: all these tools and trying to you know, getting a

827
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 2: little something from each of them, becoming unique in all

828
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,760
Speaker 2: of it. Like you know, Instagram Live is a different

829
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 2: type of vibe then going on Twitter and making a thread,

830
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,120
Speaker 2: and Twitter is different than TikTok and all this shit,

831
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 2: and so you take it serious. You start studying that

832
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 2: shit and you realize the brilliance. Man, I'm always blowing

833
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:15,520
Speaker 2: a while blown away by how fucking talented some of

834
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 2: these people are with special effects and shit on TikTok

835
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 2: like even just like the wipe me that wipe off

836
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 2: the fucking mirror talent.

837
00:43:22,160 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 3: It is neat Like I'm like, nigga, when did you

838
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 3: learn this?

839
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: Like?

840
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 2: And then and it's like I'll see one person doing

841
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 2: I'm like, Wow, that's a talented motherfucker.

842
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 3: Then I see a hundred people doing, like what the

843
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 3: fuck is going on? I was like, how did they

844
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:35,879
Speaker 3: figure out how to do this? I need to learn

845
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:36,359
Speaker 3: how to do this?

846
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,840
Speaker 2: It's an app do these niggas work for that motherfucking

847
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:40,959
Speaker 2: like pixmar where is this coming from?

848
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: But by the same token, though, them young niggas also

849
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: need to take those skills and study with the people

850
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,799
Speaker 1: before them and understand three acts structure to telling the

851
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:53,839
Speaker 1: story right, because what you can't do and that you

852
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 1: can make a point, or you can connect with the

853
00:43:56,200 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 1: truism that we all share. You can do that seconds.

854
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,560
Speaker 1: But what you cannot do is tell a full story

855
00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 1: unless you're doing a series of tiktoks and stuff. And

856
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,160
Speaker 1: so when I say a full story, I mean a

857
00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 1: story in the sense of act on at two, act three,

858
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 1: which is essentially how most television is package and psychologically

859
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:17,440
Speaker 1: that's how people receive information. So it's about focusing on

860
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,520
Speaker 1: that too. But I mean, there's a lot of cats

861
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 1: that made that pigot that I think it's worth acknowledging it.

862
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:27,959
Speaker 1: Like when you look at DC young Fly. DC young

863
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: Fly went from roasting people online, just roast some people,

864
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 1: building an audience, and then walking his ass out there

865
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: on the stage and rip it. And then he had

866
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: enough sense to collabor with Chicobani, then collabor o with

867
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:47,080
Speaker 1: Carlos Miller and Carlos Miller is he's another one of

868
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 1: them hybrids whose career predates a lot of the Internet waves.

869
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,320
Speaker 1: Carlos is a road dog, like he's an old school

870
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: get up on stage, live in front of black folks

871
00:44:55,280 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 1: and give them what they want. So he has a

872
00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 1: skill set that DC didn't have at the time. But

873
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,600
Speaker 1: if you if y'all sit and chop it up together

874
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 1: and do shows together, now you're the eighty five South show.

875
00:45:05,320 --> 00:45:08,919
Speaker 1: You selling five six, seven thousand seats. Yes, the man

876
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: will post you. Look at keV on stage. keV on

877
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,680
Speaker 1: stage is one. An even better example would be Tony

878
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:21,879
Speaker 1: Baker at Tony Baker, traditional stand up who then took

879
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:24,319
Speaker 1: a step back, start parlaying with some of them, all

880
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:28,759
Speaker 1: deaf digital niggas, and then goes, Okay, here's how I

881
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: can create some content quick and easy that speaks to

882
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: who I am as a comedian, and then it still

883
00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:36,439
Speaker 1: brings people back out to see me live, Like who

884
00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:39,239
Speaker 1: is Ryan Davis? Like There's a lot of casts that

885
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 1: I could name that have figured out a way to

886
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: ride the line between live show and internet. I just think,

887
00:45:44,520 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the thing that's unfortunate

888
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:56,879
Speaker 1: about comedy is that comedy is not like you care

889
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 1: if you if you want somebody singing, you want a professional.

890
00:46:00,840 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 1: If you want somebody dancing for you, you want a professional.

891
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,840
Speaker 1: If it's an actor, you love to see good acting,

892
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 1: you don't want to see no bullshits. Guess it ain't shot.

893
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,560
Speaker 1: But no one gives a fuck who makes them laugh? Right,

894
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:17,120
Speaker 1: just don't. If it's funny, it's funny, you're gonna laugh.

895
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:21,839
Speaker 1: So this idea that we the stand ups are the

896
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:26,880
Speaker 1: professional curators and the guardians of it all, that's fine.

897
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:30,440
Speaker 1: We're fine dining every now and then, motherfucker. Don't care

898
00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:33,359
Speaker 1: if you eat at the taco truck right right, So

899
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,319
Speaker 1: you need to make sure that you're doing something what

900
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,920
Speaker 1: the taco truck is doing, to make sure that you're

901
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,480
Speaker 1: connecting with as many people as possible. The Internet is

902
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 1: not to be slept on. The live comedy experience is

903
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 1: gonna change because of social distancing, and you know, I

904
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:52,840
Speaker 1: don't know what that means twenty twenty one, but I

905
00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 1: know that it's important that if you're a comedian out

906
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 1: here that you're thinking about all of the possible ways

907
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:00,319
Speaker 1: that you can do stuff. And what I what I

908
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 1: hope you know, what I hope don't happen with this

909
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:06,279
Speaker 1: podcasting is as the country opens back up, people that

910
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 1: have started their podcast just abandoned them right.

911
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:11,879
Speaker 4: Right because they have an audience that will actually come

912
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:12,720
Speaker 4: see them.

913
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:19,520
Speaker 1: Because podcasting is about a community. It's not even about

914
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 1: Doug Stanhope said this where it's not so much about

915
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 1: a career as it is about wanting to know that

916
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 1: you're not alone and feeling the way you feel right,

917
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:35,160
Speaker 1: And that's what entertainment is about. And so I think

918
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,040
Speaker 1: that's very important. That's one of the things that I

919
00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:39,880
Speaker 1: always took away from my days morning radio is just

920
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,399
Speaker 1: how close knit of a community it was, and you know,

921
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: the people that were involved in making the show work

922
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 1: on a regular basis.

923
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,120
Speaker 2: I think also there's some good and bad to the

924
00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:56,719
Speaker 2: fact that the curation element of it was something that

925
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,760
Speaker 2: was keeping a lot of people out of the game

926
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 2: that could have found the audience. And now with the Internet,

927
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:05,280
Speaker 2: you having people find the audiences that haven't necessarily been vetted.

928
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,719
Speaker 2: And it's obviously the gift and the curse because on

929
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:09,680
Speaker 2: the one hand, you got people where it's like, yo,

930
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 2: you really had the talent and should have been a

931
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,920
Speaker 2: person that was attracting crowds and going.

932
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 3: Places and blah blah, blah blah.

933
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 2: And then of course you also have motherfuckers where you like, Nigga,

934
00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:22,239
Speaker 2: you're not up here because you used to be.

935
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 3: A nausea or some shit. You know, like someone would

936
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:25,280
Speaker 3: have checked your ass out.

937
00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 2: If they were gonna before putting you on HBO, and

938
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:30,920
Speaker 2: that didn't happen. So now we have these like you know,

939
00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:33,719
Speaker 2: remember when he tweeted this type of type of type

940
00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:36,320
Speaker 2: of moments that come too because there is no vetting.

941
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,879
Speaker 3: But I like, I do kind of like the free

942
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 3: for all.

943
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,799
Speaker 2: I like the free for all environment a little bit

944
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,799
Speaker 2: right now, because I feel like a lot of the

945
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 2: cream is rising to the top.

946
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:50,800
Speaker 3: I'm in Jail Covan. Just yeah, Jail Covan, who's.

954
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:13,960
Speaker 2: he worked for that. There's a story behind that where

955
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 2: someone might see it and just go, oh, this guy's

956
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 2: good at Trump. But hopefully if they go and look

957
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 2: at like, oh no, this dude's funny. He's been working,

958
00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:22,879
Speaker 2: he's he's got a bunch of different impressions, a bunch

959
00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,480
Speaker 2: of the stand up comedy albums and all that shit.

960
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 2: So you know, I kind of like this now as

961
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:30,719
Speaker 2: opposed to what we used to have, But I don't

962
00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 2: think it can last. I feel like it's almost like

963
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 2: the with the people in the streets now and racism

964
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 2: coming up. I don't know if you had anybody do this, Roy,

965
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 2: but you know, like white people reaching out to be

966
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 2: like I'm so sorry.

967
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:44,840
Speaker 3: I never I never knew roy. I just it was,

00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 3: you know.

969
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,040
Speaker 2: And I feel like, to me, now is the time

970
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 2: where people black people right now getting in while of

971
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:51,520

00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:53,760
Speaker 3: People bringing up stuff that kind of don't have nothing

973
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 3: to do with this shit bringing out the lins.

974
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,719
Speaker 2: But I love I love it because people are like, oh,

975
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,080

Speaker 3: chance yet?

980
00:50:08,760 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: Roy? I feel like like everybody talks about looting, taking

981
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 1: away from the conversation on police reform. But I almost

982
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 1: feel like in a selfish way, in like a really

983
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:27,600
Speaker 1: really selfish way, and I'm like, yo, if it ain't black,

988
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:47,960
Speaker 1: this time feels like. Will you be at like a

989
00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:51,200
Speaker 1: food spot and waiting on your order right, and it

990
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:54,839
Speaker 1: started taking twenty thirty forty minutes for you to get

00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: your order right, You're standing there holding your ticket you're

992
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 1: looking at the number and the order, the ticket number fourteen,

993
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 1: tick at fourteen, and then you look at your shit.

994
00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 1: It's say thirty nine, My god, damn, what the fuck.

995
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,879
Speaker 1: And then you start purping about your food. Right, win

996
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,319
Speaker 1: thirty nine gonna come up, y'all, ain't got thirty nine back?

997
00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 1: Then check on nine. And then somebody behind you go, yeah,

998
00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 1: check on forty seven. I'd be like, hold on, nigga, right,

999
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:25,799
Speaker 1: you can't check on forty seven, ask him to check

1000
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:28,839
Speaker 1: on thirty I'm waiting forty seven. I'm with you, but

1001
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:33,200
Speaker 1: first check on thirty nine. Right? Can you check on

1002
00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 1: thirty nine? Can we talk police reform, black trans black

1003
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 1: rightings and you know, workplace black black and black black?

1004
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:44,000
Speaker 1: I hear you, forty nine whatever, that issue number forty nine.

1005
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:46,400
Speaker 1: And so I feel like what's happening right now is

1006
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,120
Speaker 1: that black folks went up to the county and said,

1007
00:51:48,200 --> 00:51:51,600
Speaker 1: fuck this, where's order number thirty nine? We tie the

1008
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 1: fucking waiting on order number thirty nine, and then everybody's

1009
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:59,760
Speaker 1: coming in behind the something Yeah, forty seven, fifty thirty three.

1010
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,600
Speaker 1: I hear you, I hear you, but I need you

1011
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:05,719
Speaker 1: to just check on order number thirty nine.

1012
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:06,400
Speaker 3: That's not all.

1013
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 1: Order number thirty and so on the other side of that. Now,

1014
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,439
Speaker 1: imagine on the other side of the counter, which order

1015
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:19,480
Speaker 1: are you going to check on first thirty nine or

1016
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:23,160
Speaker 1: forty seven fifty two. So I just wish that there

1017
00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 1: was a way, and there isn't a way because the

1018
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,640
Speaker 1: Internet is wide open. I wish there was a way

1019
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 1: to streamline the conversations into almost itemizing, knocking them all out,

1020
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,640
Speaker 1: you know, but there is. So you just have to

1021
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,680
Speaker 1: hope that white folks are listening through all of the noise.

1022
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: You know. I've thought about the one thing I've been

1023
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,919
Speaker 1: tempted to do is just go back and repitch all

1024
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:51,359
Speaker 1: the black shows that networks passed on over the past

1025
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 1: three years.

1026
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 3: From now the time.

1027
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 1: Yeah you know you got a green, you got a green?

1028
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:59,160
Speaker 1: Like this, well something like tell them right fucking right.

1029
00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 2: I like, I like, all the people have a store.

1030
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 2: Every black person has a story. And that's the thing

1031
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,600
Speaker 2: is like watching people because it went from like George Floyd,

1032
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 2: we with you, you know, brother, We're gonna get this

1033
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:12,759
Speaker 2: justice for you, and everybody was like, yeah, we're gonna

1034
00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,560
Speaker 2: get justice. Police before we're gonna get these motherfuckers out

1035
00:53:15,600 --> 00:53:18,560
Speaker 2: our neck, and then like maybe like four five days later,

1036
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,319
Speaker 2: people started creeping in with personal like gripes and shit

1037
00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,959
Speaker 2: like and also Julia from accounting, bitch, where's my check?

1038
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,439
Speaker 3: How about that? Oh you didn't think I would pop

1039
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:28,200
Speaker 3: up on your ass?

1040
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:32,399
Speaker 2: And everybody's like yeah, and that too, give bridget her check,

1041
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,640
Speaker 2: you know, Like I feel like that's what's happening right now.

1042
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 2: It's a free for a royal rumble of just like

1043
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:40,400
Speaker 2: my favorite thing now is that this you like, like

1044
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:41,799
Speaker 2: a white person tries to do the.

1045
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,719
Speaker 3: Right thing and say a good statement.

1046
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:47,080
Speaker 2: Hey, hey, I've been listening to the to you blacks,

1047
00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,480
Speaker 2: and I get it now. I've been reading all the books.

1048
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry, and people are like will in nineteen

1049
00:53:52,680 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 2: ninety five, you wasn't saying that shit, remember that?

1050
00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,840
Speaker 1: Like, I love it, But got to stand tall and

1051
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:04,600
Speaker 1: take that on the chain. That's the game. Don't run Ryan,

1052
00:54:04,760 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 1: you said it, but hey, stay stick around, keep doing

1053
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,160
Speaker 1: the right thing, and your work matters whether or not.

1054
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:12,200
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a lot of black people that don't forgive,

1055
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,200
Speaker 1: a lot of corporations and a lot of people personally

1056
00:54:14,239 --> 00:54:16,480
Speaker 1: for the right for the things that they've done that.

1057
00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: You should not let that impede you from continuing to

1058
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 1: try and be in a decent motherfucker right period, you know.

1059
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: And honestly, I almost feel like, if we're gonna use,

1060
00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 1: if we're gonna use the takeout analogy, maybe it takes

1061
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:36,240
Speaker 1: everybody ganging up on the pickup window demanding their food

1062
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:39,200
Speaker 1: at the same fucking time for y'all to create a

1063
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,800
Speaker 1: more efficient method of frying the goddamn fish right, So

1064
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,919
Speaker 1: everybody ain't waiting thirty minutes on their fucking order, which

1065
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:47,759
Speaker 1: is the bigger issue. The bigger issue is the fact

1066
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:49,360
Speaker 1: that we are waiting. It's the fact that it's a

1067
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 1: system in place back there where you got an ignorant

1068
00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 1: ass cook who you should have been fired a long

1069
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:57,759
Speaker 1: time ago. Come out is daddy on the restaurant, so

1070
00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:00,319
Speaker 1: you're letting him stay back there when true for the

1071
00:55:00,360 --> 00:55:03,040
Speaker 1: matter is that you need new cooks, you need fries,

1072
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:04,840
Speaker 1: we need all these employees got to go.

1073
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:08,040
Speaker 2: And the food not even that good. Like the food

1074
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,480
Speaker 2: not even that good. This is salt and pepper to taste.

1075
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,000
Speaker 2: Come on, okay, I know y'all ain't putting no cayenne

1076
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:13,879
Speaker 2: pepper up in this ship.

1077
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:14,799
Speaker 3: You looking like.

1078
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,640

Speaker 1: start asking me about looting. I just started talking about

1098
00:56:13,280 --> 00:56:15,439
Speaker 1: police reform and entertained the question.

1099
00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:17,640

1100
00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:20,520
Speaker 2: they ask you about looting. And I got this advice

1101

Speaker 2: a black man's I.

1118
00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,400
Speaker 1: Was when we did the clean up in Birmingham on

1119
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:13,200
Speaker 1: Monday after some of the looting. Local media was pulling

1120
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 1: up and talking to me and it was just I

1121
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:21,280
Speaker 1: understand that your job, and this is a bigger institutional

1122
00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:23,480
Speaker 1: issue with the media. I understand your job is a

1123
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 1: good quick story and follow the present conversation, right, but

1124
00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: what you should be beholden to is the longer conversation,

1125
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:33,480
Speaker 1: which is that about police reform. So you're pulling up

1126
00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:37,920
Speaker 1: while I'm shuttling glass, asking me it's this wrong, and

1127
00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 1: you can pull the footage. I posted it on my Twitter.

1128
00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:44,640
Speaker 1: Doctor Adams on camera, she said, if this is tearing

1129
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:46,800
Speaker 1: up my shot makes you feel a little bit better

1130
00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,160
Speaker 1: with that pain that you're going through, I'll be all right.

1131
00:57:49,240 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 1: God is going to rebuild it and give me something better.

1132
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,880
Speaker 1: And so far we had already raised twenty thousand for

1133
00:57:54,960 --> 00:58:01,040
Speaker 1: Maybe she was right right. I just feel like that conversation,

1134
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:03,080
Speaker 1: like you know, you know it's really fucked up? Now?

1135
00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:07,120
Speaker 1: Is that as a black person, I almost feel like,

1136
00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 1: like you know, everybody said, you need a will, you

1137
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,000
Speaker 1: need a last will and testing. You always need for

1138
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 1: people to know what your what your intentions are, but

1139
00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:17,760
Speaker 1: your belongings. I think every black person needs to write

1140
00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:21,439
Speaker 1: up of what to do in case the police kill

1141
00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:25,720
Speaker 1: me statement so that there's no more argument about what

1142
00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:32,680
Speaker 1: I would have won it like hate black people. As

01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 1: fine if you think that's the work that needs to

1192
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:58,840
Speaker 1: be done. But I would respect dancing with the police

1193
01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:00,960
Speaker 1: more if it happened at night.

1194
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's you.

1195
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:09,000
Speaker 1: Ever notice any dancing with the police footage? Right, Well,

1196
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 1: we plenty of sunlight. Do that ship at ten thirty

1197
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:16,840
Speaker 1: at night? Right, you can convince the police at ten

1198
01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:20,040
Speaker 1: at night the wobble, that's progress.

1199
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:20,560
Speaker 3: Yes, it is.

1200
01:01:21,320 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 2: I want to see the like if you I just

1201
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:26,920
Speaker 2: can't believe, like you can hate black people enough to

1202
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 2: wear some chickens tarking on you at ten thirty and

1203
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:30,400

1205
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:35,760
Speaker 3: a point for the police. A little too much booty

1206
01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 3: for me.

1207
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:42,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, honestly, honestly, if protesters did the wobble, it would

1208
01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:46,800
Speaker 1: it would hurt their ability to say that they're all violent, true,

1209
01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:49,439
Speaker 1: because you can't loot and wobble at the same time.

1210
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:53,800
Speaker 3: True instructions. Right, they're doing that.

Speaker 1: I can. But for the most part, right now, you know,

1231
01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:05,680
Speaker 1: there's I can't talk about it in detail, But there's

1232
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:09,160
Speaker 1: like a podcast slash radio slash TV project that I'm

1233
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:12,960
Speaker 1: excited about that I think is gonna do things for

1234
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:16,360
Speaker 1: the people. So I'm starting to work on that. The

1235
01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:19,560
Speaker 1: animation project is still in play. The television show where

1236
01:03:19,600 --> 01:03:22,800
Speaker 1: I play a probation officer trying to show how recidivism

1237
01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:25,240
Speaker 1: happens in the system. That sitcom is still in play

1238
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,240
Speaker 1: with Comedy Central, So you know, there's enough pots that

1239
01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 1: were already on the stove that I can kind of

1240
01:03:30,200 --> 01:03:32,920
Speaker 1: turn the heat back on once, you know, once the

1241
01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:36,040
Speaker 1: states open up again, assuming that that Corona part too,

1242
01:03:36,120 --> 01:03:38,760
Speaker 1: don't come and everybody.

1243
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:43,600
Speaker 3: We'll see, Yeah, the sequel gonna be terrible. Hopefully we

1244
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 3: don't see that. Yeah, I feel so bad.

1245
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 4: I really think the coronavirus is out there doing the

1246
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,560
Speaker 4: Birdman hand rob I tell everybody.

1247
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:53,919
Speaker 2: But oh yeah, that's the other part, because you see

1248
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:57,280
Speaker 2: these like protests and shit, it's like bruh, like these

1249
01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:00,640
Speaker 2: like in fourteen days or so, if everybody in the hospital,

1250
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:01,560
Speaker 2: it's gonna be crazy.

1251
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:01,800
Speaker 1: Man.

1252
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 2: But that's just how desperate we are for our fucking lives,

1253
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:07,560
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like it's literally like it's

1254
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:10,680
Speaker 2: like people. It's like people are like if you go outside,

1255
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,560
Speaker 2: you might die. It's like, Nigga, that's what the problem is.

1256
01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 2: That's what it wasna Like, you know, I would about

1257
01:04:20,120 --> 01:04:23,040
Speaker 2: getting pulled over in my car for a broken tail

1258
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:24,080
Speaker 2: light and dying.

1259
01:04:24,000 --> 01:04:25,800
Speaker 3: And now it's still dying over.

1260
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like literally I can't breathe in I can't breathe, nigga,

1261
01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:30,760
Speaker 2: that's the fucking point of being out here.

1262
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 3: It's too much.

1263
01:04:33,240 --> 01:04:35,280
Speaker 1: I'll tell you as much. If Corona don't come back

1264
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:38,680
Speaker 1: in two weeks, then I know for sure be good

1265
01:04:38,840 --> 01:04:41,400
Speaker 1: as a society. Yeah, because if you stood on the

1266
01:04:41,440 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 1: crowd of people all yelling, they say Corona traveled six

1267
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:47,480
Speaker 1: feet on the regular chat. How far you think Corona

1268
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:51,200
Speaker 1: going when people streaming for justice, that's a twenty foot spittle, right.

1269
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:55,480
Speaker 1: So if you can survive standing in the Corona, umbrella

1270
01:04:55,560 --> 01:05:00,200
Speaker 1: of Corona sprinkles the days of the time. If if

1271
01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:02,520
Speaker 1: ain't nobody sinking two weeks, it we open it back

1272
01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:03,400
Speaker 1: up back of the business.

1273
01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:06,800
Speaker 3: Did you get I know I got mine last night,

1274
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:08,000
Speaker 3: But did you Uh?

1275
01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:11,440
Speaker 2: Did you get your Drew Brees' apology? Yeah, he came

1276
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:15,360
Speaker 2: by the crib last night about eleven o'clock. He was

1277
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:18,360
Speaker 2: he's tired, he's been going around. He knocked on the door.

1278
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:20,760
Speaker 2: I saw the ring alarm. I went outside and he

1279
01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:23,160
Speaker 2: still he did social distancine. You all masked, and he

1280
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:23,960
Speaker 2: said he was sorry.

1281
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:24,680
Speaker 3: Uh.

1282
01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:27,080
Speaker 2: I accepted for my part. I can't say for other

1283
01:05:27,120 --> 01:05:28,640
Speaker 2: black people. But he's going house to house, So I

1284
01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:29,400
Speaker 2: don't know if he came through.

1285
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,280
Speaker 4: Now he coming to the cookout, y'all might as well

1286
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:32,080
Speaker 4: get used to it.

1287
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:36,120
Speaker 1: He drew brees geld a plate and eat out on

1288
01:05:36,200 --> 01:05:39,080
Speaker 1: the curb, like you ever had you ever been at

1289
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:41,640
Speaker 1: a family gathering, it's that one boyfriend, nobody in the

1290
01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,880
Speaker 1: house like, but you still come by tradition. And he

1291
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:48,120
Speaker 1: just gabbed it. That was that was my dad for

1292
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:51,720
Speaker 1: a minute, like my dad. So my grandma didn't like

1293
01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:53,760
Speaker 1: my dad for a minute. It wasn't long, but that

1294
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:57,760
Speaker 1: was like about two years of Rockies. So whenever my

1295
01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:00,400
Speaker 1: mom will send me to Mississippi, my dad come pick

1296
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 1: me up right, and my dad would call to my

1297
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:04,760
Speaker 1: grandmama house and if the drive was too long, he

1298
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:06,360
Speaker 1: was too tired, he would get he would stay at

1299
01:06:06,360 --> 01:06:08,840
Speaker 1: a hotel up the street, but then would come to

1300
01:06:08,880 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 1: the house, fellowship, eat all that. But he knew he

1301
01:06:11,960 --> 01:06:14,840
Speaker 1: wasn't allowed to spend the night in my grandmama house.

1302
01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:17,840
Speaker 1: So it's like that's you, breeze, bring the food, drop

1303
01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,440
Speaker 1: it off. We might give you a plate round back right,

1304
01:06:20,480 --> 01:06:21,640
Speaker 1: and then you know, get the hell on.

1305
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, he ain't coming, but I do I do find

1306
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,120
Speaker 2: it funny that he was able to make the full

1307
01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:32,600
Speaker 2: cycle in like three days. Like he went from like

1308
01:06:33,200 --> 01:06:36,480
Speaker 2: you're disrespecting the flag to like, listen, Donald Trump, you

1309
01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:37,560
Speaker 2: son of a bitch.

1310
01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:39,920
Speaker 3: Black lives matter to me.

1311
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,160
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm saying. And that's where I need

1312
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:47,680
Speaker 1: to know. It's not performative. Right now, all we have

1313
01:06:47,960 --> 01:06:50,920
Speaker 1: is words because it's not time yet for actions and

1314
01:06:50,960 --> 01:06:54,760
Speaker 1: all of that stuff. So if grees, even if Breeze

1315
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 1: was out in marching with the people, I don't know

1316
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:58,360
Speaker 1: if that's enough for black people to ever forgive him

1317
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:00,560
Speaker 1: for what he said, because usually the first and you spit,

1318
01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:02,840
Speaker 1: that's what you really feel, and you can go get

1319
01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:05,960
Speaker 1: educated from your black teammates. And I think there are

1320
01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:10,760
Speaker 1: ways for him to be actionable and change and not performative.

1321
01:07:11,360 --> 01:07:13,360
Speaker 1: But even still, he's just got to be cool with

1322
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,280
Speaker 1: the fact that some black folks are never gonna fuck

1323
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:17,560
Speaker 1: with him again. But like I said before, you can't

1324
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:21,000
Speaker 1: keep you from continuing to trying to be part of

1325
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,960
Speaker 1: the solution. So how many anybody to like me?

1326
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:29,520
Speaker 2: How many touchdowns do you think it would take, like

1327
01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:31,960
Speaker 2: on your fantasy team, on your fantasy team, like if

1328
01:07:31,960 --> 01:07:32,520
Speaker 2: he threw.

1329
01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:35,720
Speaker 3: Fifty, you think you could come around on them.

1330
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 1: Drew Brees to even have a chance at redemption to

1331
01:07:46,160 --> 01:07:50,680
Speaker 1: black community, Drew Brees would have to leave his wife

1332
01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:51,760
Speaker 1: for a black actress.

1333
01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:53,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's okay.

1334
01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:54,840
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think.

1335
01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:57,320
Speaker 3: You definitely had to take a knee. He had to

1336
01:07:57,360 --> 01:07:58,280
Speaker 3: take a knee.

1337
01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:00,240
Speaker 2: Every game, like you can't do it one time time

1338
01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:02,480
Speaker 2: at the start of season, he had to take a knee,

1339
01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:04,640
Speaker 2: like I won't take a knee so long that the

1340
01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:06,400
Speaker 2: black people on the team is like, Drew, get up.

1341
01:08:06,440 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 2: You embarrassing us, And You're like, no, brother, I fucked

1342
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:10,320
Speaker 2: up that bad, you know.

1343
01:08:12,600 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 1: Like who I'm trying to think of, Like if Drew

1344
01:08:16,400 --> 01:08:19,559
Speaker 1: Brees somehow convinced Regina King to marry him, then.

1345
01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,599
Speaker 3: That's a good one. That's a good one.

1346
01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:29,160
Speaker 1: You gotta make his own plate though, right, Like it'll

1347
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:31,840
Speaker 1: be that. Like, I don't know if it's a.

1348
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,080
Speaker 2: Way you think Kaepernick gonna get back in the league,

1349
01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:36,519
Speaker 2: because I mean there's a lot of like you know,

1350
01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:39,240
Speaker 2: buzz around the NFL making a statement. A bunch of

1351
01:08:39,360 --> 01:08:42,599
Speaker 2: NFL players may a statement. Is there any chance Cap

1352
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:45,240
Speaker 2: gets in the league. I don't think God's Goodell can't

1353
01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:47,200
Speaker 2: had a power to get him in the league because

1354
01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:49,360
Speaker 2: he's tried that already. But like one of these owners

1355
01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:49,880
Speaker 2: might be.

1356
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:53,920
Speaker 1: I don't think any of the owners will being to

1357
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:57,360
Speaker 1: let Cap back in the league. But it depends on

1358
01:08:57,400 --> 01:09:00,439
Speaker 1: how much the black players start wilding up. Because Goodell

1359
01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:04,240
Speaker 1: saying y'all can peacefully Goodell basically opened the door to

1360
01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:06,600
Speaker 1: say we was wrong to fuck with y'all for the

1361
01:09:06,600 --> 01:09:09,960
Speaker 1: way y'all was protesting. Do you understand the type of

1362
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:13,120
Speaker 1: protest you thought you you don't wish all black folks

1363
01:09:13,200 --> 01:09:15,479
Speaker 1: did was taking the brothers gonna be coming out with

1364
01:09:15,640 --> 01:09:16,599
Speaker 1: Wakonda flags.

1365
01:09:16,920 --> 01:09:18,679
Speaker 3: I'm out of tongue.

1366
01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:24,080
Speaker 1: Like, it's gonna be displays of black pride on levels

1367
01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:28,720
Speaker 1: that are straighting Redick nineteen sixty nine level. And so

1368
01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:33,800
Speaker 1: one thing that could happen to quell that is to

1369
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:37,120
Speaker 1: get Cap back in the league. Ironically, Cap might be

1370
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:40,880
Speaker 1: the one person who can save the league from imploding

1371
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:44,760
Speaker 1: under there's too much blackness. You can't control it the

1372
01:09:44,760 --> 01:09:48,400
Speaker 1: white things. What are we gonna do? Just give Cat

1373
01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:54,559
Speaker 1: his job. Maybe that'll calm the niggas down. I'm serious.

1374
01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:57,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's true.

1375
01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:00,439
Speaker 2: There's two things about it too, Like so one, I

1376
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:03,360
Speaker 2: feel like if he gets the job, Like, I would

1377
01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:05,240
Speaker 2: love to see him get the job back. And I

1378
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:09,040
Speaker 2: think what would help is if black players start wilding

1379
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:11,280
Speaker 2: out in the post game when they quarterbacks it's sorry,

1380
01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 2: like I would love Like it's like, man, this nigga

1381
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:16,120
Speaker 2: for real, we can have catviin nigga. We're dealing with

1382
01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:19,599
Speaker 2: this bullshit like like five different things every week because

1383
01:10:19,640 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 2: some of these niggas are sorry.

1384
01:10:21,160 --> 01:10:23,200
Speaker 4: They've been like y'all got this nigga for the goddamn

1385
01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:24,360
Speaker 4: seven and even right.

1386
01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:26,519
Speaker 3: This nigga is sorry. Man, now fuck that, like just

1387
01:10:26,600 --> 01:10:28,200
Speaker 3: Jayalen Ramsey going off. I would love that.

1388
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 2: The second thing is this, if he does get a job,

1389
01:10:32,160 --> 01:10:37,600
Speaker 2: this then becomes as black people the most united we

1390
01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:40,439
Speaker 2: have ever been behind a quarterback. I think it's back

1391
01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:44,479
Speaker 2: to Mike Vick and Philly when even if he had

1392
01:10:44,479 --> 01:10:46,320
Speaker 2: a bad game, we was like, nah, man, look at

1393
01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:48,559
Speaker 2: that shit. Man, that nigga dropped that past because he

1394
01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,720
Speaker 2: loved dogs more than people or something like fuck that. Like,

1395
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:53,880
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna be like that where Cap was

1396
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:56,120
Speaker 2: like you fuck up a past. This nigga, Hall, come bro,

1397
01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:59,000
Speaker 2: he ain't even catch that touchdown. You make a Cap

1398
01:10:59,040 --> 01:11:01,640
Speaker 2: look bad? Out here block the white boy. You know

1399
01:11:01,640 --> 01:11:02,639
Speaker 2: we're gonna be back on that.

1400
01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:09,840
Speaker 1: I think Cap. I just don't see a way. I

1401
01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:13,400
Speaker 1: just don't think any owner is gonna deal with that,

1402
01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:16,120
Speaker 1: other than maybe the San Diego Chargers because they have

1403
01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:21,439
Speaker 1: no fans to lose. Maybe then they're the only ones

1404
01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:24,080
Speaker 1: because their fan base is just so tracked that they

1405
01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:26,280
Speaker 1: already hate the Chargers because they moved to LA.

1406
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:29,720
Speaker 2: So I think I think I think our owner could

1407
01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:32,719
Speaker 2: do it. David Tepper could do it here at the Panthers,

1408
01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:36,840
Speaker 2: but I don't know if he will, but he could go. Yeah,

1409
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:40,240
Speaker 2: but Cam, he let Cam go and replace him, replace

1410
01:11:40,320 --> 01:11:45,959
Speaker 2: him with who though my brother, the true undefeated quarterback,

1411
01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:50,400
Speaker 2: the true undefeated quarterback of the New Orleans Saints, Teddy Bridgewater, Okay,

1412
01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:53,240
Speaker 2: never lost a game as a Saint and he our quarterback.

1413
01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:55,320
Speaker 2: Like the other thing is, I don't know if you

1414
01:11:55,400 --> 01:11:58,360
Speaker 2: heard this news, but CPI Security, who was a major

1415
01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:02,840
Speaker 2: sponsor of the Panthers, too, that they had a They

1416
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:05,160
Speaker 2: had someone write them and activists write them to say, hey,

1417
01:12:05,720 --> 01:12:08,040
Speaker 2: you know, we would like you guys that like participate

1418
01:12:08,160 --> 01:12:09,800
Speaker 2: in some of this black Lives Matter stuff. And the

1419
01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:12,240
Speaker 2: dude that at CPR to CEO wrote them back in

1420
01:12:12,240 --> 01:12:13,920
Speaker 2: the email, was like you need to worry about black

1421
01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:17,560
Speaker 2: on black crime. Panthers cut that ship off like immediately,

1422
01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:19,639
Speaker 2: like last night was like fuck it. That's our biggest

1423
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:21,639
Speaker 2: sponsor gone. We don't fuck with them no more.

1424
01:12:22,080 --> 01:12:24,160
Speaker 3: So I don't know. I'm leaning like maybe we.

1425
01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 1: Could get and he did sign Eric somebody.

1426
01:12:29,320 --> 01:12:31,840
Speaker 2: I'm just I hope, man, that's who I would love

1427
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:35,360
Speaker 2: to see CAP here, you know what I'm saying, Just

1428
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,600
Speaker 2: so we could you know, finally root for Like I

1429
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:41,080
Speaker 2: feel like that's the only way to replace CAM with

1430
01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:44,280
Speaker 2: something even blacker. Like it's like not even like they

1431
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,639
Speaker 2: went from CAM. This is see they on our side.

1432
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:48,240
Speaker 2: That's how the racist will be feeling. And then when

1433
01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:51,240
Speaker 2: they get CAP, they'd be like god damn this niggas

1434
01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:54,160
Speaker 2: even works. Bring back CAM, Like I want that feeling.

1435
01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 3: So I hope they do it.

1436
01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:58,680
Speaker 1: Man, and the solid in Carolina Panthers. So they're just

1437
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:03,680
Speaker 1: gonna call you all the Carolina black Yes, yes.

1438
01:13:03,680 --> 01:13:08,320
Speaker 3: Bring it all the sports radio. Oh, I'll be ignorant.

1439
01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:10,320
Speaker 2: Dog, I'll go back to like I might go to

1440
01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:17,960
Speaker 2: a game, you know game, what's going on my wifes?

1441
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:18,519
Speaker 3: Excuse me?

1442
01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:23,680
Speaker 1: Brother, I just needed to get to these SATs. I

1443
01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:26,439
Speaker 1: think they're just gonna not let players come out during

1444
01:13:26,479 --> 01:13:29,439
Speaker 1: the anthem. Yeah, I think that's probably what they'll end

1445
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:29,960
Speaker 1: up doing.

1446
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:31,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know that's the thing though.

1447
01:13:32,640 --> 01:13:36,160
Speaker 2: I always felt like they cap won the narrative the

1448
01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:39,880
Speaker 2: day he took that knee. It's like they can't stop this.

1449
01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:42,960
Speaker 2: They thought that they could squash it. But it's like

1450
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:45,000
Speaker 2: the NBA. The NBA went through this a long time

1451
01:13:45,040 --> 01:13:48,280
Speaker 2: ago with my mood. I do while where he took

1452
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:51,280
Speaker 2: the he did the prayer during the national anthem, and

1453
01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:53,920
Speaker 2: people was like, no more protesting it. I'm like, all

1454
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:57,000
Speaker 2: you did was make people become more outspoken now, NBA

1455
01:13:57,160 --> 01:14:01,559
Speaker 2: in the NBA players on some others, like it's like

1456
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:04,400
Speaker 2: it's like these niggas don't work for nobody when they

1457
01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:07,200
Speaker 2: be on Twitter, like, hey man, fuck Donald Trump and

1464
01:14:36,080 --> 01:14:43,040

1465
01:14:43,280 --> 01:14:50,280
Speaker 1: too terrible, and we at the NFL stand against race.

1466

1482
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:46,080
Speaker 1: all that shit and he got black teammates. Imagine what

1483
01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:48,880
Speaker 1: some of these baseball players ain't been, like eight brothers

1484
01:15:48,920 --> 01:15:54,160
Speaker 1: playing baseball right now? Mm eight no baseball being might what?

1485
01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:58,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you, I'll tell you who who I

1486
01:15:58,200 --> 01:15:59,160
Speaker 2: think would come out.

1487
01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:01,400
Speaker 3: I don't even know his name, but he my favorite

1488
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:03,800
Speaker 3: baseball player. Uh, that nigga that.

1489
01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:06,720
Speaker 2: Was like, I'm so go out there with the rona. No,

1490
01:16:07,640 --> 01:16:10,080
Speaker 2: we're gonna it's gonna be a lot more twitch live stream.

1491
01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:13,479
Speaker 2: That's facts that whoever that white dude is that was

1492
01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:16,760
Speaker 2: talking like that, that dude, that's the only one I

1493
01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:17,880
Speaker 2: think might be on our side.

1494
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:21,320
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think before I tell you it's on

1495
01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:24,640
Speaker 1: our side for real. His black brother Adam Jones, who

1496
01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:26,800
Speaker 1: when he used to play for the Orioles, he was

1497
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:28,439
Speaker 1: the one that got the batteries thrown at him in

1498
01:16:28,439 --> 01:16:32,559
Speaker 1: Boston like three years ago. He was just in the

1499
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:35,320
Speaker 1: outfield and white folks calling him nigga and throwing batteries

1500
01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 1: at him. I think that other was probably.

1501
01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:40,519
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, he definitely. I mean I assume damn you know.

1502
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:42,280
Speaker 2: I was just about to say I assume most of

1503
01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,200
Speaker 2: the blacks, but then you're right, Roy, I don't know,

1504
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,800
Speaker 2: Like it is the MLB and it does depend on

1505
01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:51,920
Speaker 2: like like that. I know there was a dude that

1506
01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:53,839
Speaker 2: that Adam Jones took the knee twice?

1507
01:16:53,960 --> 01:16:56,759
Speaker 3: Right, was he the one that took the knee?

1508
01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:58,200
Speaker 1: I'm not sure.

1509
01:16:58,439 --> 01:17:01,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, I mean might be a couple, but you're right,

1510
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,640
Speaker 2: I do want to know where they staying because I

1511
01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:05,000
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a very.

1512
01:17:05,160 --> 01:17:07,560
Speaker 3: Fucking conservative organization.

1513
01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:07,920
Speaker 1: Man.

1514
01:17:07,960 --> 01:17:10,080
Speaker 2: They don't really like they players talking about that kind

1515
01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:11,800
Speaker 2: of shit. And then you got a lot of people

1516
01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:14,880
Speaker 2: that are like Cuban and whatnot, but they might not

1517
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:16,920
Speaker 2: have identified with the black experience like.

1518
01:17:16,920 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 3: That to feel like they can or should say something.

1519
01:17:19,960 --> 01:17:23,679
Speaker 2: So, yeah, you're right, Melb is kind of quiet damn

1520
01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:26,519
Speaker 2: avoided though, my nigga, you can't be quiet.

1521
01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:29,799
Speaker 1: You have to choose when the NBA and the NFL

1522
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:32,320
Speaker 1: have already said something, that's gonna be all eyes on you.

1523
01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:34,639
Speaker 1: It's the same with all these corporations, which is how

1524
01:17:34,720 --> 01:17:37,800
Speaker 1: you know a lot of it is performative, right, But

1525
01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:40,360
Speaker 1: even if it is performative, fuck it, I'll take it

1526
01:17:40,400 --> 01:17:45,439
Speaker 1: as a starting point. Come on, God, when nicolonean then
