<v Speaker 1>got hit by a bus and I could be r

0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:01.360
<v Speaker 1>I P right now, you know, I really could. And

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:05.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't take anything away from that, the fact that

0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:08.160
<v Speaker 1>it was a serious incident that could have been even

0:01:08.200 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>more serious fatal if you will. And this is what happened. Okay.

0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 1>So I was in l A for a series of

0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:21.680
<v Speaker 1>five days, uh well six days, and um, of course

0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm drinking I'm getting caught up with what my friends.

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 1>the beat, the breakdown of the beating ship. But then

0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 1>my best friend Joey, she turned on the song Berserk.

0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:46.120
<v Speaker 1>Now that is by Big Sean and a Sadford one

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:49.000
<v Speaker 1>of oh my god, one of the most dopest collapse

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:51.400
<v Speaker 1>that you may not even know you need. But I

<v Speaker 1>stream that ship. I don't give a fuck who is

0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>making all the money off this ship. That ship is brilliant.

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:04.480
<v Speaker 1>The song buzz Jerk by Big Sean featuring as at Ferd.

0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:08.519
<v Speaker 1>That is my whole entire ship right there. It's not

0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>my favorite song, but that's my ship. Okay, my favorite

0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 1>song is busting rhyms put your hands with my eyes

0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>to see, but that is my ship. Now, you gotta

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:21.679
<v Speaker 1>understand there are different levels of HI. I was not

0:03:21.960 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 1>like only intoxicated. I was intoxicated. I was high and

0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:30.640
<v Speaker 1>shipped from edibles and I might even smoked the blunders

0:03:30.680 --> 0:03:35.200
<v Speaker 1>to who the funk knows. Right now, she played that

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:39.960
<v Speaker 1>song and when that fucking hook just come on that ship?

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:45.119
<v Speaker 1>What drop down you are afraid bend that over? Touch

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:47.640
<v Speaker 1>your cheeks, chicken booty. I know what's little, but you

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.800
<v Speaker 1>neique that's my ship right there, right, So I get

0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 1>out when I started boom boom. Now we're at a light.

0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:55.120
<v Speaker 1>I get out. I started shaking my ass. I boom

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 1>but I boom but I boom boom boom, like shaking

0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.040
<v Speaker 1>it for the night of nine and the two housands down.

0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:03.520
<v Speaker 1>And no sooner than I moved my hand, the bus

0:04:03.720 --> 0:04:08.280
<v Speaker 1>was taking the goddamn door. Now. Look, it was the

0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:11.000
<v Speaker 1>bus driver spat all day. Let me tell you why,

0:04:11.360 --> 0:04:15.520
<v Speaker 1>because if you go and actually look at the fucking video,

0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:19.279
<v Speaker 1>you can see that the bus wasn't even moving. At

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:22.080
<v Speaker 1>the beginning of the video, the light turned green as

0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.760
<v Speaker 1>I was in mid twerk. Okay, so I'm looking up

0:04:24.800 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 1>at the light. I see it turn green. I'm about

0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>to get my ass back in the car. The bus

0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:32.320
<v Speaker 1>started driving, Yes he did. Now he was already a

0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:36.120
<v Speaker 1>little bit of feet past my car. However, if I

0:04:36.240 --> 0:04:39.680
<v Speaker 1>would have opened the door and seeing that I could

0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:43.120
<v Speaker 1>touch the bus with my car door, I would not

0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:45.800
<v Speaker 1>have tworked. And I'm saying that to say he was

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:50.080
<v Speaker 1>not close to me. He merged over like he moved over,

0:04:50.240 --> 0:04:52.279
<v Speaker 1>love bad, love bad, love bad, and probably didn't notice.

0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:55.200
<v Speaker 1>He's probably looking in that in that um and the

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.160
<v Speaker 1>driver mirror. You know, I'm saying he was probably looking

0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:01.640
<v Speaker 1>in the mirror. But one thing for sure, two things

0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 1>for certain, it was not my fault. I'm not justifying

0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:06.640
<v Speaker 1>what the funk I did because you're never supposed to

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:09.320
<v Speaker 1>hop out of a car and talk at a light

0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of the road. I don't give you

0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:13.640
<v Speaker 1>in the middle of a desert and ain't no cause coming, bitch,

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.040
<v Speaker 1>Don't do that. Don't do that. So that is not

0:05:16.240 --> 0:05:19.080
<v Speaker 1>what I am influencing anybody to do. And nor am

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:22.599
<v Speaker 1>I trying to justify my reckless endangerment, because that's exactly

0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.279
<v Speaker 1>what it was. I was in the street talking drunk

0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:28.560
<v Speaker 1>as a motherfucker. That's what it is, all right, But

0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:33.560
<v Speaker 1>that motherfucking drivers saw me. He saw me, and even

0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.680
<v Speaker 1>if he didn't see me, he merged over and that's

0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:38.320
<v Speaker 1>just what it is. He just in and took my

0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 1>goddamn door. That's what it wasn't. Yes, that was a

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:46.200
<v Speaker 1>one maserati suv. I was pissed about it, but it

0:05:46.279 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 1>was like, alright, cool fucking I got two options. I

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:54.040
<v Speaker 1>can act like I was driving, or I can just

0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:55.880
<v Speaker 1>tell the truth about it. Either way, it wasn't my

0:05:55.960 --> 0:06:00.600
<v Speaker 1>motherfucking fault. Right Listen, this is gonna be a very

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:04.960
<v Speaker 1>expensive mistake on my end, and I mean mistake because

0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I didn't mean for that to happen. I knew exactly

0:06:07.880 --> 0:06:10.440
<v Speaker 1>what the funk I was doing, you know what I'm saying.

0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 1>I knew exactly what I was doing. That's not my

0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:14.160
<v Speaker 1>first time hopping out of a car at a light

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:18.880
<v Speaker 1>to berserk. Hence my best friend Joey for playing it

0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:22.599
<v Speaker 1>every single time I've done that. But like I've jumped

0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 1>on car roofs before and dance to the song, that's

0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>just what the song does to me. So big Sean,

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.720
<v Speaker 1>if you're gonna be in the goddamn comments shaking your

0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:33.960
<v Speaker 1>head and putting your hand over your fucking face, nigga,

0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:36.680
<v Speaker 1>also thank yourself for such a banger that it got

0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:39.560
<v Speaker 1>bitches out here doing this ship all right, because that's

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.480
<v Speaker 1>influenced all right, shout out to Asta Firk as well.

0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:46.600
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of people were worried about me.

0:06:46.960 --> 0:06:49.800
<v Speaker 1>I do know that, so for those people, I want

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:52.039
<v Speaker 1>to say I am sorry, because then the very next

0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:54.080
<v Speaker 1>day I may adjust with the mess. And YO know,

0:06:54.680 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't never feel like I'm too good to be

0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:58.960
<v Speaker 1>talked about ship. I'm going if something happened, something in

0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:00.920
<v Speaker 1>the blogs about me, or if it's any type of

0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:03.800
<v Speaker 1>controversial trouble, I'm gonna let y'all know what it is

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 1>right then there, Like I don't give a funk. I

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:07.240
<v Speaker 1>may take a few hours and I have to think

0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:09.720
<v Speaker 1>about the dudes and the don'ts of my actions and

0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 1>all the consequences and ship. But I always can admit

0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:17.520
<v Speaker 1>when I was wrong, and I definitely was wrong along

0:07:17.640 --> 0:07:21.560
<v Speaker 1>with the bus driver. But I can definitely um take accountability. No,

0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 1>You're never supposed to be to the point of drunkenness

0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:31.400
<v Speaker 1>where you do things uncontrollably, you know, And I knew

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 1>exactly what the funk I was doing. But what I

0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:37.600
<v Speaker 1>have done that sober? What I've done that without liquor, No,

0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't have. Honestly, I wouldn't have. Or maybe I

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>would have, but just maybe in like a parking lot

0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>or some ship like that. Last time I jumped out

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>of a car responsibly is when I was doing the

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Go Crazy challenge uh by Chris Brown or what I

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.920
<v Speaker 1>remember that ship? That ship the Go Crazy would they

0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:58.760
<v Speaker 1>had you jumping out the car and ship? Um that

0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:02.720
<v Speaker 1>I did that. I didn't do the the Drake one,

0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:06.880
<v Speaker 1>the Kiki do you love Me? Eat like Na? No,

0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:10.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm I wan't re curse on that one. I'm saying

0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:13.920
<v Speaker 1>all this to say, just be very careful. Be careful.

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.760
<v Speaker 1>Even if you have friends around you that are doing shit.

0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:19.920
<v Speaker 1>You know that you don't approve of that. Don't mean

0:08:19.920 --> 0:08:21.320
<v Speaker 1>you gotta do it, you know what I'm saying. Even

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:26.280
<v Speaker 1>if you are easily influenced while under influence, then maybe

0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:27.840
<v Speaker 1>you don't need to be drinking or you don't need

0:08:27.880 --> 0:08:34.000
<v Speaker 1>to be doing any type of drugs. Hold up, Hold up,

0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:35.880
<v Speaker 1>I know the ship getting good, but listen to just

0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:38.040
<v Speaker 1>a couple of seconds of a commercial. If you love me,

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:50.720
<v Speaker 1>you'll listen. Okay, let's show euphoria, guys. Guys, let's show

0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:52.439
<v Speaker 1>you for you. I want to talk about that for

0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:54.679
<v Speaker 1>a second. And I know this is very random, but

0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:57.400
<v Speaker 1>it goes hand in hand. Okay, So first of all,

0:08:57.960 --> 0:09:02.960
<v Speaker 1>shout out to Zenda. She is absolutely killing this fucking role.

0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:05.559
<v Speaker 1>She kills everything she touches in a good way. I

0:09:05.679 --> 0:09:09.760
<v Speaker 1>love it. She's just amazing actress. If you will, And

0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:12.520
<v Speaker 1>then shout out also to Drake. Um, I was just

0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 1>I just recently learned that Drake is actually one of

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:19.120
<v Speaker 1>the producers on the show Euphoria. So that's actually great.

0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.679
<v Speaker 1>That's something that I did not even know. My thing

0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:24.200
<v Speaker 1>is it's a it's a great show, not taking anything

0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:29.240
<v Speaker 1>away from it, it's also a very vivid reality of

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:33.920
<v Speaker 1>what millennials experience, you know, um, with going to school

0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:37.560
<v Speaker 1>and uh, with peer pressure and just trying to find

0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.319
<v Speaker 1>who they are, you know what I mean. So I

0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:44.959
<v Speaker 1>definitely do want to pinpoint that. However, I feel like

0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the scenes and a lot of the

0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:48.880
<v Speaker 1>ship that they go through and as much drugs as

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:51.800
<v Speaker 1>they take, and all the ship that be happening on there,

0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:54.719
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't really put that ship in high school. I

0:09:54.760 --> 0:09:58.719
<v Speaker 1>would say that's like college campus type ship. That's not

0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:02.040
<v Speaker 1>even like, oh my god, like that's the only That's

0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 1>the only problem I have with the show is that

0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 1>it definitely don't describe high school. That's not high school.

0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:12.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about like you got all types of sex,

0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.079
<v Speaker 1>which is in high school. You've got all types of

0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:18.199
<v Speaker 1>drugs and ship that is in high school. But the

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.520
<v Speaker 1>day in and died like four times, you know what

0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:23.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying, Like I'm talking about O D on top

0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>of O D on top of O D, you know,

0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:28.400
<v Speaker 1>and then you got like all these real life situations

0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:31.440
<v Speaker 1>with these kids telling drugs, and then you got these

0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 1>fucking underaged, fucking girls looking grown and Ship. Now, listen,

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 1>it may seem like I'm describing real life as it

0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.560
<v Speaker 1>is right now in high school. But no, you gotta

0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:45.400
<v Speaker 1>watch the show. So I'm gonna ask you, guys, And

0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 1>it's on demand. If you've got cable, it's on demand.

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.719
<v Speaker 1>If not, go over your friend's house and watch this Ship.

0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:53.120
<v Speaker 1>It's a really good show. I just don't think it

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 1>should take place in a high school. Now. Look, when

0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.480
<v Speaker 1>I was in high school, I tried all types of drugs.

0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:02.840
<v Speaker 1>But that's what it was. I was trying it. These

0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:07.880
<v Speaker 1>are already fucking dope things on the show. In high school. Now,

0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:10.240
<v Speaker 1>it was a lot of things out kids would never

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:12.439
<v Speaker 1>mind you. I remind you, guys, I went to a

0:11:12.520 --> 0:11:17.720
<v Speaker 1>predominantly white high school, um as I've spoken about previously. Now, yeah,

0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:22.480
<v Speaker 1>of course there were you know, some cracked out kids

0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:25.040
<v Speaker 1>or you know, some junkie kids or whatever. You but like,

0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:28.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, that Ship is way different. It's way different,

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, in high school and my days. I can

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.800
<v Speaker 1>only speak from my experience because I've only lived in

0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:37.959
<v Speaker 1>my life. I tried drugs there. I had fun with it.

0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:41.920
<v Speaker 1>Some things I tried, Some things I didn't. Some things

0:11:41.960 --> 0:11:44.360
<v Speaker 1>I've seen other people try and I've seen them react

0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:46.040
<v Speaker 1>a certain way, and I didn't want to try it.

0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:49.959
<v Speaker 1>I partied. I didn't have sex until later, but you

0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:53.480
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, Like my friends were having sex whatever,

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:56.000
<v Speaker 1>it didn't make me curious enough to want to do that,

0:11:56.520 --> 0:11:59.040
<v Speaker 1>so I didn't right away, you know what I mean.

0:11:59.160 --> 0:12:04.160
<v Speaker 1>I I actually lost my virginity at eighteen, so it's like, okay,

0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:05.760
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. I wasn't really hot in

0:12:05.840 --> 0:12:08.760
<v Speaker 1>my ass until I was like a senior for sure.

0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:13.240
<v Speaker 1>But I have no fucking idea why the show has

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:18.679
<v Speaker 1>to be so directly centered around what high school students do.

0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:22.800
<v Speaker 1>And I've seen Zendaya put out, uh sort of like

0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:26.679
<v Speaker 1>a disclaimer like guys that don't um pretty much, like

0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:29.440
<v Speaker 1>although I'm doing this show just doesn't mean that drugs

0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:32.520
<v Speaker 1>is cool and then that it, uh, this is what

0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:34.520
<v Speaker 1>you need to do to fit in in high school

0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.520
<v Speaker 1>and all that ship. But honestly, if you watch that ship,

0:12:37.559 --> 0:12:40.560
<v Speaker 1>you ain't gonna wanna what if you're a parent, But honestly,

0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:44.000
<v Speaker 1>if you wash that ship and you're a parent of

0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:47.040
<v Speaker 1>a teenager in high school, even the middle school, you

0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:50.120
<v Speaker 1>ain't gonna wanna. You ain't really gonna appreciate that ship

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:53.120
<v Speaker 1>too much. You're not going to want your children to

0:12:53.200 --> 0:12:56.400
<v Speaker 1>watch that ship, your teenagers, especially if it's already one

0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:59.880
<v Speaker 1>that's sucking up or one that ain't any type of

0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:02.000
<v Speaker 1>predicament that you are in as a teenager. If your

0:13:02.000 --> 0:13:04.680
<v Speaker 1>parents watching that ship, you ain't post. They ain't gonna

0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:08.120
<v Speaker 1>have you watching that ship. And that's really what it

0:13:08.320 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>is because on the show, it's making it seem like

0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:15.000
<v Speaker 1>this ship is cool, this ship is fucking cool. We

0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:17.320
<v Speaker 1>can get away with this, you know, and kids are

0:13:17.360 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 1>so impressionable nowadays more than ever that I think shows

0:13:21.320 --> 0:13:25.400
<v Speaker 1>like that, like, honestly, I'm surprised that in today's world

0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:30.520
<v Speaker 1>they actually canceled comedians for certain jokes, but they got

0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:32.960
<v Speaker 1>shows like this, you know what I'm saying, not saying

0:13:33.000 --> 0:13:35.439
<v Speaker 1>it should be taken off of TV, but I'm just saying,

0:13:36.000 --> 0:13:38.679
<v Speaker 1>y'all want us to limit the ship that we make

0:13:38.760 --> 0:13:42.360
<v Speaker 1>fun of. But you got shows like that on TV,

0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Like what huh, y'all actually got a grown ass woman

0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:52.559
<v Speaker 1>to play Maddie on the show. She looks like a

0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:57.319
<v Speaker 1>grown woman, easily, nice figure, beautiful girl like I'm talking about,

0:13:57.400 --> 0:13:58.959
<v Speaker 1>but looks like she got a couple of kids of

0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:01.960
<v Speaker 1>her own and they are actual men who fantasize over

0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:06.080
<v Speaker 1>this character. Like, but what does that make him? Does

0:14:06.120 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 1>that make him a pedophile? Or does that because she's

0:14:08.960 --> 0:14:11.160
<v Speaker 1>playing the role of a high school girl or what? Like?

0:14:11.280 --> 0:14:13.280
<v Speaker 1>What does that? You know what I'm saying, like all

0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>types of ship. Maybe I'm just looking too deep into it,

0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:17.200
<v Speaker 1>but that's why this is carefully reckless and I'm gonna

0:14:17.200 --> 0:14:18.800
<v Speaker 1>do that and I don't give a fuck, but I

0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:21.160
<v Speaker 1>ain't gonna lie. I'm a I'm a personal fan of

0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:23.040
<v Speaker 1>the show, and I do funk with it. I just

0:14:23.720 --> 0:14:26.360
<v Speaker 1>if I could change anything, would change the fact that

0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:28.440
<v Speaker 1>they're in high school, I will put their ass in college.

0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I would make everybody over eighteen, honestly, And if you

0:14:32.680 --> 0:14:35.480
<v Speaker 1>are an avid ephor your watcher and you feel like

0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:36.880
<v Speaker 1>you can relate to a lot of this ship and

0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:39.840
<v Speaker 1>you are a teenager, I'm not taking anything away from

0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:42.360
<v Speaker 1>your life. I'm really not. I'm not taking anything away

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.600
<v Speaker 1>from your experiences in your life. But you need to

0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:47.480
<v Speaker 1>go get help. If you are in any of these

0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:51.320
<v Speaker 1>predicaments that are in the show, please go get help now. Seriously,

0:14:51.840 --> 0:14:54.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot of teenagers can feel lost these days trying

0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:58.360
<v Speaker 1>to find yourself, and with the um internet being is

0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:03.520
<v Speaker 1>influencing as it's ever been in life over our babies

0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:06.520
<v Speaker 1>and our kids and ship like that, I really feel

0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:09.960
<v Speaker 1>like parents need to step in more. Me as a parent,

0:15:10.080 --> 0:15:13.560
<v Speaker 1>my son is nine, I'm still stepping in more. I

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:16.520
<v Speaker 1>don't care. This ship starts early. They have access to

0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:20.680
<v Speaker 1>everything now, you know, even with parental locks and all

0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:24.800
<v Speaker 1>that ship like, kids got access to every single thing now.

0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:27.360
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't like that when I was growing up, and

0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:30.880
<v Speaker 1>we honestly can't stop it. You know, these kids got laptops.

0:15:30.920 --> 0:15:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Even if you got a phone that you're paying for

0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:34.640
<v Speaker 1>as a parent and you take that ship away, they

0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 1>got laptops in school. They are more on the Internet

0:15:37.840 --> 0:15:41.520
<v Speaker 1>now surfing the web than we've ever have, you know,

0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:46.320
<v Speaker 1>than they ever been able to so then they've ever

0:15:46.400 --> 0:15:50.240
<v Speaker 1>been able to do as well. Everything is like Internet generated,

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:52.560
<v Speaker 1>you know what I'm saying. Like my son can literally

0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:57.080
<v Speaker 1>if I let him watch TikTok all day, watching YouTube

0:15:57.160 --> 0:15:58.880
<v Speaker 1>all day. You think they're not on there looking at

0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:02.960
<v Speaker 1>ship that we don't permit them to look at, you know,

0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:05.200
<v Speaker 1>and whatever they don't see in our presence, they're gonna

0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 1>see in somebody else's, you know, when they're away from us.

0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:12.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, you got strict mom households, and then you

0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:15.840
<v Speaker 1>got the household of lenient dad's. Then you got two

0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:19.400
<v Speaker 1>parent homes where one parent is more lenient than the other. Wherever,

0:16:20.120 --> 0:16:22.600
<v Speaker 1>however your your your kid is raised, they're going to

0:16:22.760 --> 0:16:26.360
<v Speaker 1>be preview too, so much more than we were growing up,

0:16:26.920 --> 0:16:35.400
<v Speaker 1>and we can't stop it. Sadly, and on that note,

0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:38.880
<v Speaker 1>I want to take a moment of silence for Regina

0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:41.920
<v Speaker 1>King's baby boy who just took his own life and

0:16:42.080 --> 0:16:45.440
<v Speaker 1>he is now deceased, and the amount of pain I

0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:50.320
<v Speaker 1>know that comes out of that for her, it's just unbearable,

0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, losing a child it's hard. Losing a parent

0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:57.960
<v Speaker 1>it's hard. I've never lost either, so I could never

0:16:58.080 --> 0:17:04.000
<v Speaker 1>imagine or understand how she feels. You understand, I just

0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:08.639
<v Speaker 1>respect and um I give my condolences. So let's just

0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:12.680
<v Speaker 1>really really give five to ten seconds to Regina King

0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:28.480
<v Speaker 1>and anyone else's child who has taken their lives. And

0:17:28.600 --> 0:17:30.920
<v Speaker 1>that was the moment of silence for all the moms,

0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:35.720
<v Speaker 1>all the dads who have lost their child suicide. And

0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:40.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna leave it on this note. Be involved, Be involved.

0:17:40.600 --> 0:17:44.080
<v Speaker 1>I myself wasn't even as involved as I should have

0:17:44.160 --> 0:17:46.760
<v Speaker 1>been in my nine year olds life a year ago.

0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:50.600
<v Speaker 1>You know, That's what this pandemic has also taught me.

0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:54.399
<v Speaker 1>Get to know your children because the cell phone and

0:17:54.440 --> 0:17:58.240
<v Speaker 1>the internet is their new teacher now, seriously, they spend more.

0:17:58.240 --> 0:17:59.959
<v Speaker 1>It used to be that your kids would spend more

0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:03.080
<v Speaker 1>time with their teacher than you. Now it's the kids

0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:05.760
<v Speaker 1>spend more time on the internet than with their teacher.

0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:10.080
<v Speaker 1>And you you understand. So be more involved, even if

0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:12.920
<v Speaker 1>it gets on your kid's nerves, like especially these teenagers.

0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:15.640
<v Speaker 1>These babies are just trying to find their way. If

0:18:15.680 --> 0:18:18.119
<v Speaker 1>if you have a team that's too quiet, that that

0:18:19.040 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 1>gives you one word answers all the time, sit their

0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:24.119
<v Speaker 1>asses down. Tell me what can I do to make

0:18:24.160 --> 0:18:26.600
<v Speaker 1>you talk to me? Even if you are, you know,

0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:30.920
<v Speaker 1>just an introvert kid. Whatever, you're my kid. You came

0:18:31.040 --> 0:18:32.760
<v Speaker 1>for me. What can I do to get through to you?

0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:35.360
<v Speaker 1>What do I have to do. I need to talk

0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:39.560
<v Speaker 1>to you, you know, provide your kid with examples like

0:18:40.040 --> 0:18:43.679
<v Speaker 1>Regina King's son taking his own life. Talk to your

0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:47.920
<v Speaker 1>kids about that. That could be them. You know, it's

0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:53.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot more kids anticipating suicide than ever before. Nowadays.

0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:56.800
<v Speaker 1>The Internet has a lot to do with that. Influence

0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:58.800
<v Speaker 1>has a lot to do with that. Peer pressure has

0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:00.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot to do with that. Drug have a lot

0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:02.760
<v Speaker 1>to do with that. This music has a lot to

0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:05.200
<v Speaker 1>do with that. What they see on TV a lot

0:19:05.320 --> 0:19:07.359
<v Speaker 1>to do with that. You can be a lot to

0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:09.440
<v Speaker 1>do with that too. You can have a lot to

0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:12.000
<v Speaker 1>do with that as well. Step in get them therapy,

0:19:12.320 --> 0:19:15.359
<v Speaker 1>but it starts with you. Don't just go, oh, I

0:19:15.440 --> 0:19:16.960
<v Speaker 1>think my kid needs to go to therapy. No, you

0:19:17.119 --> 0:19:21.040
<v Speaker 1>try to get through to them first, and then if

0:19:21.080 --> 0:19:25.240
<v Speaker 1>you if it's not successfully executed, then you go try

0:19:25.280 --> 0:19:29.600
<v Speaker 1>to find a therapist. Please, because we need these babies,

0:19:29.680 --> 0:19:34.120
<v Speaker 1>because we need more generations after them, and I feel

0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:38.680
<v Speaker 1>like they're dying off and killing themselves off more than

0:19:38.880 --> 0:19:42.600
<v Speaker 1>other generations that are dying from like COVID and other

0:19:42.680 --> 0:19:45.719
<v Speaker 1>health issues or whatever. I always say, it's worse if

0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:48.840
<v Speaker 1>you take your own life. It means you didn't think

0:19:48.880 --> 0:19:52.200
<v Speaker 1>about what you meant to other people, and you definitely

0:19:52.359 --> 0:19:57.240
<v Speaker 1>the value yourself. So that's very important for us to

0:19:57.320 --> 0:20:02.160
<v Speaker 1>do as a community, as parents, as friends, check on people.

0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:06.119
<v Speaker 1>And I'm gonna end that with I'm thanking y'all for

0:20:06.320 --> 0:20:11.000
<v Speaker 1>checking on me, the people who are seriously worried about me.

0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:14.879
<v Speaker 1>I am okay. I don't have whiplash. I don't know nothing.

0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I know I was moving a little stiff in the

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:19.280
<v Speaker 1>video the next day after almost being hit by the bus,

0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:22.480
<v Speaker 1>But that's because this goddamn girl in l a braid

0:20:22.560 --> 0:20:24.720
<v Speaker 1>and my goddamn neck up in these braves. My ship

0:20:24.880 --> 0:20:27.560
<v Speaker 1>hurting like a motherfucker still to this day. But I

0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:29.240
<v Speaker 1>love y'all and I know y'all love me, and I

0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:31.680
<v Speaker 1>know that's why you're gonna always make short just the

0:20:31.760 --> 0:20:34.240
<v Speaker 1>mess is good so my news can stay real. And
