Me and 53 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: you was having some conversations off here, right, And I 54 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,799 Speaker 1: always like to talk about mental health. I don't think 55 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: we as black men, I don't think we talk about 56 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: mental health a lot. I think we got a lot 57 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: of trauma going on, you know. M I got to 58 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: think about stuff sometimes that happened to me when I 59 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: was younger. I'd be like, damn man, I really kept 60 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: that repressed, and somebody will bring it up, you know, 61 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: and you get to talking about different things. Why do 62 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: you think black men got a hard such a hard time? 63 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: You know what black women? I think black women have 64 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: easier time to expressing themselfs. 65 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: I mean because we're women, right, So you know a 66 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 2: lot of things that they associate with being a bitch, right, 67 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,239 Speaker 2: like expressing yourself. Women women do those things. I don't 68 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: think a man is a bitch if he were to 69 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: express himself or tell people exactly how he's feeling. I 70 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 2: just think that I don't know, it's just we not 71 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: the same, right. So men are taught to be hard, 72 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 2: and it's a lot of times it's not coming from 73 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 2: women telling men to be this way. 74 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 3: It's from other men. That's why I don't subscribe to 75 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 3: the uh. 76 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: You know, a lot of times people try to say 77 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: like men can't be vulnerable with women, like you can't 78 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 2: tell you woman shit because women use. 79 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 3: It against you. 80 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 2: What I have found is that me and people use 81 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: it against people. It's not just women, because I don't 82 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: think I've ever been with a man who don't use 83 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 2: my vulnerabilities against me in the midst of an argument. 84 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: Right. 85 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: I believe that women oftentimes know they're a man better 86 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,479 Speaker 2: than anybody knows them. But they put the mask phone 87 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: what they put the mask on for the homeboys, but 88 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 2: we get the real you, you know. 89 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 3: So I think when people to be vulnerable doesn't make 90 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 3: you weak. 91 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 2: Right, So if you can't talk to your friends, your family, 92 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 2: your woman, you gotta find somebody to talk to to 93 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 2: work your shit out, because we all dealing with trauma. 94 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 3: I think that women just we the gods. Man. 95 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 2: I don't care how y'all feel about it. So we 96 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,559 Speaker 2: gotta fix it. Because a nation is only as strong 97 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,799 Speaker 2: as it's women. So we gotta be together. We gotta 98 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 2: be okay. 99 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: For those that cut on like just here, it was 100 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: the case of Chronicles podcast, you didn't tune in by 101 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: mistake and this is my homegirl AJ for the week 102 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: talk back podcast on Black Effect on Black Effect with us. 103 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,800 Speaker 1: You know you've known charlmgne a long time? 104 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 2: Huh yeah, a long time, A very long time.

They sometimes they take it out. It's such 149 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 3: thing as a bully parent. Some people be bullying the kids. 150 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: And I know that. I know one thing for sure 151 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: is that my parents do love me. You know, me 152 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 1: and my mom have a really good relationship. But Irene 153 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: used to whoop ass.

You know, 158 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: my mom had me when she was twenty years old. 159 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: She just turned twenty and she was this country girl, 160 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 1: right and she had met my stepdad, I think four 161 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: years after I was born.

But I think I for 171 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: sure repressed a lot of stuff, and I know for 172 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: sure that my childhood experience has defined the man I 173 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,719 Speaker 1: am now. I'm like very loyal to my family. I 174 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: knew that. I just knew that I didn't want to 175 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: have children with multiple women, Like I knew I wouldn't 176 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: gon do that I didn't want to have And I 177 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: knew that whoever I had a child with, I was 178 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: gonna try to make it work with them. That's who 179 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 1: I was. I spent my life, right, I just it 180 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 1: was just certain things I just didn't want to take 181 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: another human being through, Because you do feel like this 182 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: sense of isolation where you are not when you kind 183 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: of like the child. That's kind of like, you know, 184 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: both my brothers got the same father, right, I also 185 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: have another brother too. You know, my dad's not right, 186 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: so I always kind of felt like I was the 187 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: outside got them, you know. 188 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, but your stepfather that right.

Oh no, my stepdad, I'm gonna tell you this. 191 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: I remember and I forgot this, right. I think we 192 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: were freshed. That's why I'm saying. I think we kind 193 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: of touched stuff in our backpack, right in our middle backpack, 194 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: because my mom said that. One day, I was coming 195 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 1: home from school, and I used to go to this school, 196 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: this private school, and they used to take everybody in 197 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 1: the hallway and kind of do attendance, right, And I 198 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 1: used to always wonder why my younger brothers had a 199 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: different last name than me. My last name was Munson 200 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: at the time, right, I didn't have my dad's last 201 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,120 Speaker 1: name with is Sanders, right, my mom, you know, for 202 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: whatever reason, that's I learned that, like, look, their problems 203 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: be their issues, right. But I asked him, I said, 204 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 1: why isn't my last in the same but theirs? I 205 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: thought their last name was cool still, right, And I 206 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: said that my mom told me about it. She said, 207 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,439 Speaker 1: will you or you're talking about that? And he went 208 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: home to win this cigar box. And when they paid 209 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 1: like twelve hundred dollars for his attorney, she said, which quighted, 210 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: well ten thousand dollars back then. And he did everything 211 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 1: to like legally adopt you. And so I know that 212 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: Pops loved me, and I didn't start appreciating him really 213 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: till I got a lot older. Some of the values 214 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: that cause, you know, because he was a country dude. Right. 215 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: The thing about Pops is, like my mom always says, 216 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: since he had he had other women, right, and that's 217 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: basically why they wanted to get a divorced. He had 218 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: other women, but he always took care of his house 219 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: and he made sure that none intersected and he was 220 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: always like, hey, you know, this is my family right here. 221 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: And you know then he was doing this thing though 222 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 1: Pops was a real stones doing this thing. Yeah, I know, 223 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 1: that was just the time period that was right, and 224 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 1: he was just a he had him a job downtown. 225 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: That's when Ohio had all of the like all the 226 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: motive plans. I think that's work. Yeah, he worked for 227 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: Fish Body. I think, so we had a big job. 228 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: I remember when we I actually remember when we moved 229 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: out of the apartment on Chester and first bought our 230 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: first house. And I remember because he was over there 231 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: fixing on it. I remember that they were talking about 232 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: the house to be ready pretty soon. And just think, 233 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: I think about it. Back then, they paid fifteen thousand 234 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: dollars for the house, so I'm pretty sure it was 235 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff to get done, you know. But 236 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: when I tell you that that man knew how to 237 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: fix any and everything. He went back and he built 238 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 1: that house up for us, right. I remember when we 239 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,559 Speaker 1: moved in. I met all my friends because I remember 240 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: what he was moved in, you know. I just always 241 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: little kids outside watching with somebody move in. And I 242 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: went outside. I met my boys who like my lifelong friends, 243 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: like Bam shot out the Bam, Big Bam, my mother 244 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: guys back in Ohio. Right, And I remember he went 245 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: to work at Fishing Body, but he always would come home. 246 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: We always had cars in our backyard, a bunch of cars. 247 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: He would fix cars. He like I said, this man 248 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: was really good with his hands. He built like a 249 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: garage in the backyard. Right, And I remember he would 250 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: have the radio back there plan he would be fixing 251 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: on people's cars, right, And I after one day, I said, 252 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: it seemed like he was always working and fixing somebody's stuff. 253 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,199 Speaker 1: And he said, well, son, ain't no such thing as 254 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: time off. You need to be making money every minute 255 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: of your life, he says, a black man, you need 256 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: to be making money. Because he said this job would 257 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: fire me at any time, and Mike job fired me. 258 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,079 Speaker 1: I need that way to take care of my. 259 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 2: Family absolutely, because a man is a problem solver. So 260 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 2: if you ain't solving no problems, you the problem. 261 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: And that's what he was. And I'm gonna tell you 262 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: this too. He taught me out of my dad. And 263 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: this ain't no way, no reflection of nothing against my 264 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,079 Speaker 1: dad was a solid dude. He was a solid man. Right. 265 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: Taught me a whole lot. Right, it's my father. But 266 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: Willie still handles stuff a certain kind of way. I 267 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: remember he would let people in the neighborhood get credit 268 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: to get their cards fixed up by the part. You 269 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 1: had to go by your own part. Right. As far 270 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 1: as his payment, he would work, but you sometimes, you know, 271 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: he would work with you over payments. Because a lot 272 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: of people worked at the same place, like over. And 273 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 1: I remember this kid in our neighborhood who I still know. 274 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna leave nameless because I don't want embarrassing. 275 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: But I remember Pops never yelled. He wasn't the type 276 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,680 Speaker 1: of dude to yell. But when he wrote that cigar 277 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: across his mouth, you knew he wasn't playing those games right. 278 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 1: And I remember he was talking this one kid's dad 279 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: was like that, you told me he was gonna have 280 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: his money last week. What's going home? And I guess 281 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:44,719 Speaker 1: because he was his wife. He said, man, nigga, I'm 282 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: tired of you asked me about that. I'll get it 283 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: to you when I get to you.

He wrote that cigar across his mouth 286 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: and said come on.

It was just like it's because 668 00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: it's a love that nothing. 669 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 3: Else compares to and how do you walk away from that? 670 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 4: So you know what I what I realized is that 671 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 4: the love for a child may be your biological child 672 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 4: or you know, a step a step son, a stepdaughter. 673 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 2: I believe that the love for the child is transferable 674 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 2: from the love the man has for the woman. So 675 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 2: that's why a man can take care of a child 676 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 2: that's not his because he loves that woman. And when 677 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 2: a man doesn't like a woman, it's fuck them kids, 678 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 2: even if it's his biological children. 679 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: See, I don't know if you should think that way, 680 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: because the thing is, they don't stop being your kids because. 681 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 2: Always I feel And that's why, that's why it's easy 682 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: for some men to walk away because they don't want 683 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 2: to deal with that woman, you know what I'm saying, 684 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 2: So you just discard the children as well. But even 685 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 2: a man who they separate, but you still have love 686 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 2: for this woman. If she need anything, you still coming through. 687 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 2: You take care of your children. That's the love he 688 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 2: has for the woman. It really doesn't have anything to 689 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 2: do with the kids. Men don't have the same connection 690 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 2: not all you know, don't have the same connection with 691 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 2: children like the mother does. Right because though yes, the 692 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 2: baby comes out of you, this thing is growing inside 693 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 2: of her. 694 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,479 Speaker 1: You know what I'm gonna tell you. Like this, at 695 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: one time, my oldest son, his mama was always his favorite. 696 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, my oldest son loved me to death, 697 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: but he's a mama's boy one hundred percent for sure. 698 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 1: He loved his mama, right. My daughter, hmm, she loves 699 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: both of us, she said, I love both of she 700 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:48,239 Speaker 1: was little. I love both of you guys. But that's 701 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: my daddy, you know, like my daughter. I love my daughter. 702 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: It's different with dads and daughters. Right. My oldest son, 703 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: for the longest, when he was little, he didn't like 704 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,719 Speaker 1: his mom. Like he would wake up at night when 705 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: he was want and be smacking on her face and 706 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 1: biting her and shak you know what I mean, and 707 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 1: just doing a whole bunch of stuff. But now if 708 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 1: you ask either one of them, it's all about their mom. 709 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 1: With my boys, my mom, they mom.

But they mam 718 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: are getting a thousand dollars bottle of the cologne. Something 719 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: just everything that she wants. She got a list, she 720 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 1: get loved, But you know what, she's supposed to get 721 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: loved because I tell my boys, she's supposed to take 722 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: care of your mama. If something happened to me, y'all 723 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: butt to take care of y'all mama. That's you know, 724 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: that's the rules around here. 725 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 2: Something a man who takes care of their mom too, Like, 726 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,480 Speaker 2: that's one of the characteristics out look for now. I 727 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,719 Speaker 2: always make jokes that I don't like niggas with mamas, 728 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 2: and I don't like niggas with sisters, like if your 729 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 2: mama got to be an ancestor. I joke like that 730 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,839 Speaker 2: a lot. But a man who takes cares, takes care 731 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 2: of his mom, you better believe he's going to take 732 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 2: care of you. So you need to thank his mama 733 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 2: for how he is by one. 734 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: Hundred percent for sure.

But one of 738 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:35,839 Speaker 1: the main reasons I'm leaving not just because it's cheap 739 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 1: route there and I'm tired of paying all these highest 740 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,359 Speaker 1: taxes and everything else, and I want to see more 741 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: of my money, right right, But I am going to 742 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: go take care of my mother too. My mother is 743 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 1: moving in with me, and that's like proudest moment ever 744 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 1: from like, I cannot wait for that to happen.

That's why she's always arguing with people when 1128 00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,359 Speaker 2: they talk about her. Like girl, you have to even 1129 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 2: in podcasting, you have to be okay with criticism, Like 1130 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,279 Speaker 2: people talk hell is shit about me, like they don't 1131 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 2: know me in real life though, right the people who 1132 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,520 Speaker 2: know me in real life love me, and that's really 1133 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 2: all that matters to me, right until if I get 1134 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,840 Speaker 2: to know some of these people who you know, I 1135 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,880 Speaker 2: listen to the story listening to the show, but I 1136 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:46,400 Speaker 2: actually get to know you in real life and we 1137 00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:48,280 Speaker 2: become friends or something like that, that's different. 1138 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 3: But you have to be able to accept criticism. Cardi B. 1139 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 3: She has never gotten okay. 1140 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:58,120 Speaker 2: With celebrity like she And I'm not saying like disrespect 1141 00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:01,680 Speaker 2: should come with being a celebrity, but you should expect 1142 00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 2: some hateration, right because when you're doing well, you kind 1143 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,560 Speaker 2: of force people to recognize in their own situation, right, 1144 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 2: you kind of make people evaluate their own situation. 1145 00:53:11,840 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 3: So success either garner's admiration or hater ration. 1146 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 2: And adults have a hard time admitting that they fucking hater, 1147 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 2: So instead of saying, yeah, I'm a hater, they will 1148 00:53:25,160 --> 00:53:28,239 Speaker 2: create reasons to justify the hate. And that is what 1149 00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 2: Nicki has done. She has creative reasons to. 1150 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:34,320 Speaker 3: Not like the breakfast club. She thinks she's above repros. 1151 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:38,280 Speaker 2: Nobody's supposed to critique her, her songs, nobody's supposed to critique. 1152 00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 3: Anything she does.
