141
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 8: four emails from parents saying the same exact thing, you know,

142
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 8: like you know that they've been talking to their kids

143
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 8: recently and they've been seeing the change in their kids,

144
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 8: and their kids have been talking about, you know, suicide.

145
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 8: And these are the ages from eight to twelve.

146
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 6: Uh.

147
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 8: And we tell everybody as a parent, like my father

148
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 8: went through my stuff, just to make sure if you

149
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 8: see any change, it's not Brian.

150
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're the mom, your dad.

151
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 8: Go through the text messages, go through emails, go through

152
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 8: your kids stuff.

153
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 3: You would. You want to make sure that you're on

154
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 3: top of it.

155
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 8: And like Charloumagne always said, get the necessary help took therapists.

156
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 8: Get help, like, don't try to do it on your

157
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 8: own because you know you're not professionally trained for this.

158
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 4: Get help and actually be happy that your kid is

159
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 4: expressing that they have an issue. You know, because some

160
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 4: kids don't express that they have an issue. They just

161
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 4: keep it to themselves and then they actually end up

162
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 4: completing suicide. Be happy that they're actually telling you, because

163

Speaker 2: That phenomenal, amazing study.

00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 15: Study.

177
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 4: How many of y'all make sure everybody's house is good?

178
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 8: Ok Okay, let's get right into it. Harlem is back

179
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 8: January twenty third on Amazon Prime. But sadly they say

180
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 8: this is the last season. Why so many people watch it?

181
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 3: So many people are into it? How did they just

182
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 3: do it like that?

183
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 6: Ask Fun Prime.

184
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 16: It's really really sad, and I think like everybody's super

185
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 16: sad because we had so much story to tell and

186
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 16: so like, if we did have more seasons, this would

187
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 16: have the stories would have been so good. But they

188
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 16: did such an amazing job truncating it, bringing it down

189
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 16: into this final season. I think everybody's gonna be happy.

190
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 3: But hopefully we get a movie.

191
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 8: Okay, did y'all know it was gonna be the final

192
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 8: season when y'all started taping?

193
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 3: Did you know that already? Did y'all find a halfway through?

194
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 13: I found no, not halfway through. I think I found

195
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 13: out a little late, but sometimes I'm in my own world.

196
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 13: But I found out the day of the reading as

197
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 13: we were reading it.

198
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 2: Now, going into knowing that it was the last season. No,

199
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 2: I knew it, but I hadn't read the last two.

200
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 13: I thought they were saving the last two episodes, so

201
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 13: I didn't know, you know, And then as we were

202
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 13: reading it, I.

203
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 3: Was like, oh, no, this is it.

204
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 8: Yeah, but did y'all been doing a lot on the

205
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 8: side as well?

206
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 3: Y'all been engaged? You ever having babies, losing?

207
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 16: Yeah, it's true, it's true.

208
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 8: So how were y'all doing all of that on the

209
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 8: side as well as taping the show?

210
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,559
Speaker 17: You know, what's interesting is that as we've been taping

211
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 17: the show, because we.

212
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,319
Speaker 2: Started what you start twenty twenty, okay.

213
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 17: Twenty twenty, and then we got like maybe three episodes in,

214
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 17: then COVID happened, and then we took a break, then

215
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 17: we came back, then we had a year off, then

216
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 17: we went through striking, all these different things. But during

217
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 17: the duration of all these things, we were experiencing life.

218
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 17: We were having all kinds of life changes and having

219
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 17: conversations in between, because not only are we, you know,

220
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 17: friends on the show, we're like sisters in real life,

221
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 17: but also with Tracy and then saying with Tyler, like

222
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 17: that's our brother, that's our family, but each one of

223
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 17: us were experiencing things that, you know, as Tracy spoke

224
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 17: to us, She's like, what do you think about this?

225
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 15: And what do you think about that?

226
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 17: And I know you're on this journey and you know,

227
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 17: do you mind if I implement this and all of that.

228
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 17: So so much of it is actually mirrored in the

229
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 17: show of what we were experiencing. So it kind of

230
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 17: made it seamless in that way, and you know, you

231
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,960
Speaker 17: have a specific story about that, but yeah, just everything,

232
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 17: it just it feels like it was a part of

233
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 17: our actual, real lives.

234
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 3: So what's your story with that?

235
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 16: No, so we were talking about this, but you know

236
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 16: how Quinn goes through her depression journey in season two.

237
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 16: I did a lot of research on depression because it

238
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 16: wasn't something I was personally dealing with at the time,

239
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 16: but I wanted to reflect it in a very honest way.

240
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 16: So went through that, did that research, and then I

241
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 16: had the baby and then I was diagnosed with severe

242
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,840
Speaker 16: postpart depression. So even when I came on the show

243
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:45,079
Speaker 16: the last time, I was in the depths of that.

244
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 16: Didn't really realize the impact and how that affected me

245
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 16: until I started to kind of climb out of that. Right,

246
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 16: going through that journey with Quinn, it gave me a

247
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 16: space and I call it my help journal, like a

248
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 16: reflective journal, to look back on and say, oh, like

249
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 16: this was this was the way in which it was

250
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 16: showing up for Quinn. I didn't realize that postpartum depression

251
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 16: can show up as fatigue, as overwhelmed. We know about

252
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 16: the sadness, we know about all that stuff, but these

253
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 16: are some of the ways the mood swings. Didn't know

254
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 16: that that was a part of those things. And so

255
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 16: being able to play that and reflect that in Quinn

256
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 16: gave me almost like a map that I could go, Okay, grace, like,

257
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 16: this is how you can navigate.

258
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 3: This did work help with her?

259
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 16: It worse, No, it helped because it actually gave me

260
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 16: an enlightenment, right like, oh, this is what it could

261
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 16: look like. This is what And so even though I

262
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 16: was I was doing it for Quinn, you know, I

263
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 16: felt it on a different nuanced level when I was

264
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 16: actually going through it myself.

265
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 15: Gotcha, how are y'all juggling the schedules though?

266
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,839
Speaker 18: Like now, because it's still is it's like y'all personally

267
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 18: flourishing business y'all flourishing?

268
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 15: How can y'all because I know that the schedules.

269
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 18: I mean, I know y'all said, it's been like two

270
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 18: years since y'all did this, But now y'all all got

271
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 18: individually a lot going on too.

272
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 15: Can y'all still like, how y'all juggling schedules?

273
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 16: We all start with Sian that one because she just

274
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 16: got us single.

275
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 18: You know, I thrive when I'm busy, I really do.

276
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 18: I like the structure of figuring out my schedule. I've

277
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 18: become more detail oriented when I have a lot of

278
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:18,000
Speaker 18: things to focused on.

279
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 3: And I was very.

280
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 18: Intentional about dropping feel my Love my new single after

281
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 18: the ending season two with a engagement or proposal, and

282
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 18: so I wanted to like balance that and have that

283
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 18: come out at the same time as the show because

284
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:33,319
Speaker 18: I knew a lot of Harlem.

285
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 15: Fans would be patting attention, but also just to like, you.

286
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: Know, maybe troll a little bit or.

287
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 18: Make them question whether and you would actually end up

288
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 18: in this relationship because we don't get a yes or

289
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 18: no at.

290
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 15: The end of the season two. Okay, strategy anything, you know.

291
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 4: We're trying to have a rollout making you refer to

292
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 4: them as your sisters and your brothers. That does that

293
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 4: happen naturally because a lot of times, you know, people

294
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:55,559
Speaker 4: want to keep things business.

295
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 7: So that just happened naturally that this bond.

296
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 17: It happened completely organically in the beginning from day one.

297
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 17: If I started with Schnik, well, like we were on

298
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 17: FaceTime a few years prior and I had never met

299
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 17: her before, and we just spoke and we talked about like,

300
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 17: you know what, one day we're gonna do a show together,

301
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 17: and we touched and agreed on the camera of the FaceTime.

302
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 17: And then literally years later, here we are both walking in,

303
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 17: we're both testing, and we're in the bathroom and.

304
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 16: She's like, do you remember me?

305
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 7: I was like from here?

306
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 15: And she told me and I was like wait what.

307
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 17: And then we ended up praying and crying in the bathroom,

308
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 17: and you know, there's that. And then literally with Tyler,

309
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 17: it was just immediate, like just family and just easy

310
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 17: or organic. Same thing with Jerry, it was like like

311
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,520
Speaker 17: I've known her forever, like you know.

312
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 15: And then with Grace, I called her, I was like, girl,

313
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:37,439
Speaker 15: I'm getting.

314
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 7: She was like, don't doubt me.

315
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 3: You getting ready to.

316
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,920
Speaker 16: Yeah, Like for years before that, so that was exciting.

317
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, is that the normal sex?

318
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 15: It isn't always like that.

319
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 17: And then you also you know it when it's gonna be.

320
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 15: For women, you just never know what you're gonna get.

321
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 15: You hope that that is the.

322
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 17: Experience, but you know, and we had talked about this

323
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 17: a few years prior, saying how it would be great

324
00:12:58,040 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 17: if we got an opportunity to work on a show together.

325
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 17: So when I called her and she was like, I

326
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,079
Speaker 17: can't really, I was excited. It was like you just

327
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 17: knew that God was in it. And I have to say,

328
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 17: for me, this has been the best professional experience that

329
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 17: I've had in my entire career. You know, you know,

330
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 17: in a way, it's the end of a chapter, but

331
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 17: it's exciting because the way that we end the chapter

332
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 17: were really really proud of. And I think the audience

333
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 17: is going to get everything that they want to get.

334
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 17: But also I think that we got what we want

335
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 17: to get outside of having a movie.

336
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 15: Additionally, but.

337
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 17: It's better, I think to move this way where it's

338
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 17: you know, you didn't stay for too long, but you

339
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 17: gave everyone exactly what they wanted and needed, and I want.

340
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 13: To give Meghan her props too, because she was a

341
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 13: great leader in setting the culture of our set. And

342
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 13: everybody who has come and guest starred, they've had a

343
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 13: really great time. But we learned from Meghan from Grace

344
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 13: like it truly.

345
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 2: Is a fun time. But also we have decided.

346
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 13: We decided early on that we were going to stick

347
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,320
Speaker 13: together throughout this situation, so nobody could say, you know,

348
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 13: this person was a difficult one, or this person was

349
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,719
Speaker 13: this one, or because if there was a problem, we

350
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 13: all have the problem.

351
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 2: If we all have it and we're on the.

352
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 13: Zoom calls or whatever, and you won't know where the

353
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 13: source is, because we didn't want it to be like

354
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 13: somebody was pinpointed or somebody is And we promised each

355
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,440
Speaker 13: other that if somebody says something to one of us

356
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 13: about the other one, we're not just gonna take it

357
00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 13: at face value.

358
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 2: We come into the source and saying, hey, did this

359
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 2: really happen.

360
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 7: People do like.

361
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 13: To like separate women and pen women against each other,

362
00:14:31,240 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 13: and so I think it was really important for us

363
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 13: to And this is my second show. I mean, I

364
00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 13: was like six months out of grad school and I

365
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 13: booked this show, and the first time being the lead

366
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 13: in something and then to get to do it like this,

367
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 13: which is for me my manifestation, and to be like,

368
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 13: oh wait no, actually, for me, this can be the

369
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 13: norm of.

370
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 2: The experience and y'all set the tone for that. I

371
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 2: thank you for.

372
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 6: Being a student.

373
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 8: We have more with the cast of hallm here making Good,

374
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 8: tal Aleplee, Grace Biased, Janiqua Shandai, and Jerry Johnson.

375
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 3: When we come back, it's the Breakfast Club. Good morning everybody.

376
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 8: You'rj NV Jess Hilarious, Charlamagne the God we are the

377
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 8: Breakfast Club. He's still kicking in with the cast of

378
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 8: Harlem Megan Good, Tala Leplee, Grace Bias, Shaniqua Shandai and

379
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 8: Jerry Johnson.

380
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 4: Charlamagne does acting allow y'all to just escape when you're

381
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 4: dealing with all of these personal things.

382
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 7: Now you can just go be somebody else for a

383
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 7: few hours.

384
00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 17: It allows you to work through things, you know, past trauma,

385
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 17: certain experiences. Rather it's childhood, I mean, whatever it may be.

386
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 17: It allows you to have a place to put it

387
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 17: to good use and for it to be something that

388
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 17: someone else can watch or see and take from it

389
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 17: and go Okay. That made me feel not alone, or

390
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 17: that made me feel soon or understood. So I think

391
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 17: in a way it's therapeutic. I don't know if it

392
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 17: really allows us to escape, I get to each of these.

393
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 7: Gets a little dangerous. So do y'all allow y'rselves to

394
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 7: lose yourself in a row?

395
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 5: You don't?

396
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 7: You don't can't go to there?

397
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 6: You can?

398
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 13: Because that's I think the if we think about like

399
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 13: some of our great that have lost themselves and then

400
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 13: we lost them. I was gonna say that, Yeah, it's

401
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,560
Speaker 13: like when you go there, if you don't know how

402
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 13: to unzip that character and step out in order to

403
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 13: go home and not have that energy in your home,

404
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 13: it gets crazy. But also the body doesn't know the

405
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 13: difference sometimes, So when you go and when you're going

406
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 13: deep into a character and you're not doing those things

407
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 13: where you are separating when you get.

408
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 2: Home, your body don't know the difference.

409
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 13: So if my character is going crazy, if I'm playing

410
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 13: the Joker and I'm really in there and I'm taking

411
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 13: the Joker home with me, my body don't know that

412
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 13: I'm not the Joker.

413
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 3: If I believe it enough.

414
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 13: And so sometimes you know it's good to be like

415
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 13: all right, I'm gonna give a cap on this, Like,

416
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 13: if I really gotta go there, I'm gonna go there

417
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 13: for the six months I gotta go there. But I'm

418
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 13: already planning all the things I need to plan so

419
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 13: that day I'm done, it's already set up for me

420
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 13: to release this. Whether I'm going to the ocean, whether

421
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 13: I'm wherever I am, whether all of my friends come

422
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 13: to my house to remind me of who I am.

423
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 13: I have to have something that reality sets me back

424
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 13: to who I am, or it's not gonna be it's gonna.

425
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 2: Be on my spirit and it's not gonna be good

426
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:14,439
Speaker 2: for me.

427
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 18: Then, speaking of then Jerry, where's Tie's head at?

428
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 15: After she found out she smashed the mother and.

429
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 3: She got to jump back into being.

430
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 13: Yes, that's crazy, that's crazy, you know, to find out

431
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 13: something like that is like, how do you even deal

432
00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 13: with that? And I think Tie decides because what I.

433
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 10: Really want.

434
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 7: Open.

435
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: I think Jerry is poly, but she's loved be Jon.

436
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 13: Even though Jerry is Polly, I wouldn't describe Tie as Polly.

437
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 7: I think Ty was really wanting.

438
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 13: Something, but also probably in that moment, being greedy because

439
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 13: she was wanting something.

440
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 2: But having something else.

441
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 13: And I think sometimes if my intention is commitment, then

442
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 13: I have to go towards what that intention is.

443
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 2: And if it's commitment towards one person.

444
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:19,200
Speaker 13: And I'm letting my energy fly, of course I might

445
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 13: end up with a daughter.

446
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 3: I lost.

447
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 4: I knew what was going on, and I was like, Grace,

448
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:28,679
Speaker 4: how is motherhood changed you?

449
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 16: I think what I did not expect was that I

450
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 16: was fully prepared to be like, I'm ready to learn

451
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 16: everything I can about motherhood and my child. I did

452
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 16: not anticipate that I was going to also go on

453
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 16: a journey to learn about myself, and so I had

454
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 16: to face things about myself in order to ensure his

455
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 16: well being. Right, So I had to go back to

456
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 16: my own childhood, go back to the things that you

457
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 16: know that I didn't realize that I was like holding

458
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 16: on to, or dealing with, or like simple things like

459
00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 16: you know, like being being a recovering people pleaser. I

460
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,399
Speaker 16: can't do that with my child. I will be so depleted.

461
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 16: I will not show up as the mother that I

462
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 16: need to be. So how do I then organize in

463
00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 16: my mind? Like how do I prioritize myself for real?

464
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 19: For real?

465
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:12,719
Speaker 18: You know?

466
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 16: So like things like that that I didn't expect that

467
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,160
Speaker 16: are really changing my life.

468
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 7: Wow, are these moments bittersweet?

469
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 4: Knowing that you know it's gonna be the last time

470
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 4: y'all probably do interviews together and thinks of that nature.

471
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 3: They said, they talk about movie, they manifest the movie.

472
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 2: So the last time we need a petition.

473
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 6: Is not this.

474

476
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,720

477
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 18: had with you, like so much growth, like not saying

Speaker 18: that you you know last time right, No, well not that,

479
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,840

480
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 15: This is a whole bunch of all are very grounded

481
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 15: as a cast.

482
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 18: So I appreciate it. Anything else not even don't have

483

00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 6: It list.

00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 16: Come on here, like we really appreciate enough.

487
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:18,959
Speaker 20: And even just like you know, to all of us

488
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 20: before you know, as we're saying goodbye, I feel like

489
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 20: one of the biggest uh you know reasons it's not

490
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 20: a sad goodbye. It's like for a multitude of things, like, hey,

491
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 20: we have a you know, we have a great beginning middle,

492
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 20: and now you know, we knew are and we knew

493
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 20: who were landing at so like that's a beautiful thing.

494
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 20: But then on the flip side off of the script,

495
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 20: you know, because of the way we were able to

496
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 20: come together as a family, Like I feel like this

497
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 20: is a you know, a lot of times when we

498
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 20: say goodbye to people, it's like a sad goodbye, you

499
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 20: know what I'm saying. But it's like, I really feel

500
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 20: like this is a you know, this is the opposite, is

501
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:46,360
Speaker 20: almost like a happy goodbye.

502
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.

503
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 20: When we say goodbye, it's almost like we're raising the

504
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 20: trophy up, you know what I'm saying. So it's like

505
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 20: when I do, yeah, it's on a good note. So

506
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 20: when I think back about these times, it's not really

507
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 20: going to be a sad thing. You know, we're able

508
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 20: to experience together, share it with the world, and uh,

509
00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 20: close the book at the right time.

510
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,640

00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 20: the decisions that I make when I'm stoned. I like

585
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 20: the way movies look when I'm stoned. I like playing

586
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 20: with my kids when I'm stoned. I just love being high. Yeah,

587

Speaker 4: The Cushion Orange Juice range juiced too. Yeah, great project.

589
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:07,439
Speaker 4: I love the first time, second episode too.

590
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 13: It.

591
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 4: I really love the first app thank you, But it

592
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 4: got like a nineteen ninety now.

593
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 7: G funk sound.

594
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 6: Uh huh? For sure?

595
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 7: Was that intentional?

596
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, definitely.

597
00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:18,479
Speaker 20: I think that was like the original sound of Cushion

598
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,159
Speaker 20: Orange Juice. For a lot of people, it was like

599
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 20: nostalgic for the nineties or G funk or you know,

600
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,800
Speaker 20: just riding around in the car going to house.

601
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:27,600
Speaker 6: Parties getting fresh.

602
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 20: It just got that whole, you know, player vibe to

603
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 20: it and a little bit of funk to it as well,

604
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 20: just like the way the beats slap and the way

605
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 20: that the base is there. So a lot of the

606
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 20: productions Cardo Sledgern and E Dan and just the original

607
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 20: people who you know, put that sound together, so it

608
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 20: was really easy to just bring it back.

609
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm glad you like it.

610
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:47,719
Speaker 7: It slaps.

611
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:48,439
Speaker 6: Thank you.

612
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 21: You had announced in twenty twenty four that this project

613
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,159
Speaker 21: was done and now it's here. Yeah, the release of it,

614
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,479
Speaker 21: so is it traditional release to streaming or like how

615
00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,360
Speaker 21: you're going to do Because Cushion Orange Juice won, it

616
00:24:58,400 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 21: was like you do, did your own thing, you dropped

617
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 21: change the way people were listening to music at the time.

618
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,360
Speaker 6: Right now, this one's going to streaming.

619
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 20: We're releasing it through BMG, and they've been really really

620
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 20: cool at letting me kind of just curate the vibe

621
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 20: and what the feeling of it is, and they understand

622
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,400
Speaker 20: what the project is and we've had meetings you know, weekly,

623
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 20: just how we're going to attack it and you know,

624
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 20: make it last and making something real. So I've just

625
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 20: been really excited about updating, you know, the format. I

626
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 20: think that's what's most important, especially for like being an

627
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 20: OG in the game, is releasing things with the times

628
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 20: how they are now, but also still being innovative as well.

629
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 20: And that's why you see, like in between I've been

630
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,800
Speaker 20: dropping freestyles and doing a lot of stuff like just

631
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 20: entertaining my fans because I still have that freedom, I'm

632
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 20: able to do that as we get ready for the

633
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 20: album too, So just to put it all together and

634
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,679
Speaker 20: make it current, I think that was the idea for

635
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 20: all of us.

636
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,360
Speaker 7: You know, April fourteen was the fifteenth anniversary of Chrissenards.

637
00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I did hear that, So you did hear that?

638
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 7: Yeah, album.

639
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 20: I try so many albums and stuff like that, like

640
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 20: every month is an anniversary of another project, but fifteen years, Yeah,

641
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 20: that's tight, And I think we're really lucky to be

642
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 20: able to well, I'm grateful to be able to drop

643
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 20: you know, the sequel as close to as I did

644
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 20: with the original one. I feel like that's like a

645
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,879
Speaker 20: sign that just you know, feels real now. It just

646
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 20: worked out like that.

647
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 7: This is divine alignment.

648
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 6: Like that.

649
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 4: Do you remember your mind state April fourteen, twenty ten.

650
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 6: I do. Yeah. I was just getting off tour. I

651
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 6: was in Miami.

652
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 20: I was working on rolling papers the album, but I

653
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,880
Speaker 20: already had Cushion Orange Juice done and I had been

654
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 20: hyping it up for a lot of months before, so

655
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 20: my fans knew it was about to come out. And

656
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 20: I remember just going to the hotel room. I was

657
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 20: in a nice ass hotel on the beach. I was like, yeah,

658
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 20: I'm about to drop it, and I just released it

659
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 20: from my computer that day. I was really I was

660
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 20: still am super confident, but I was really really like

661
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,440
Speaker 20: super duper confident about the music and just my connection

662
00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 20: with my fans.

663
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 6: So that was the time to do it.

664
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 7: Did it pistol label off? When you dropped it?

665
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 6: I really wasn't signed at that point.

666
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,199
Speaker 20: They were kind of thinking about signing me, working on

667
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 20: signing me, But it didn't piss them off at all.

668
00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 20: They knew how important it was for me to still

669
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 20: curate that organic thing because at that time I was

670
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 20: doing a lot more for myself than any label could do.

671
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,080
Speaker 20: And it's still like that, like I promote myself, I

672
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,560
Speaker 20: do my social media, I do my merch, I do my.

673
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 6: Marketing, I do all.

674
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 20: I just give you a whole package and then you

675
00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 20: could just you know, you look like a genius.

676
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 4: Well, cushion ar just changed everything though. That was like

677
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:31,800
Speaker 4: your that's like your section eighty.

678
00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 21: That's so far gone that like beanded the tailor gang

679
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,119
Speaker 21: all of the like we we were talking about it

680
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 21: before you came in. Like I remember the feeling when

681
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 21: Cushion Orangers came out, and like I was a senior

682
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 21: in high school and like they would throw parties where

683
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 21: you would literally come to smoke and only listen to

684
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,199
Speaker 21: Cushion Orange Jeps, and like it was such a movement.

685
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:49,679
Speaker 6: I love that.

686
00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 21: It was like really such a movement.

687
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's what it was for. So it's good

688
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 6: that that happened.

689
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 20: It was all intentional and it was like like you said,

690
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 20: that's like my you know, or my doggy style or

691
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 20: my illmatic Like I knew I had to make something

692
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 20: that was like that, you know, that was a good

693
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 20: one to be attached to. And yeah, it was just

694
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,439
Speaker 20: I always tell people it's bigger than the music. It's

695
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,719
Speaker 20: stuff like what you're saying, Like, that's what makes it

696
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 20: what it is. Like even this album now, it's amazing

697
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 20: music wise, but you can't just sit there and listen

698
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 20: to it.

699
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 6: You gotta experience that.

700
00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 20: You gotta go to a beat, you gotta go on vacation,

701
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 20: you gotta kick it with the homies, you gotta hang

702
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 20: out super duper late.

703
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 6: You got to hook up with.

704
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,480
Speaker 20: Somebody who you've been you know, or you got to

705
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 20: meet somebody who you never even understood, understood that with you.

706
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,320
Speaker 20: That's what makes it what it is, And that's what

707
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 20: I'm excited for people to experience as well as the

708
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 20: music being good.

709
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 7: People don't realize that though.

710
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 4: When you put out music, music just provides the soundtrack

711
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 4: to whatever you're experiencing in life. Yeah, that's why you

712
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 4: can never argue with certain people about certain albums because

713
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 4: the time of life they were experiencing that album. Yeah,

714
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 4: you can't like when somebody says, oh, this is this

715
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 4: is going to remind you of Whiskally for cushion ards.

716
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,200
Speaker 7: Nah, right, I'm on something totally different than the more.

717
00:28:58,080 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 6: Than twenty ten Exactly.

718
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 20: It's personal Yeah, I think people do have those personal

719
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 20: moments or those life decisions and what you're listening to

720
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 20: at the time, definitely, you know dictates, you know what

721
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 20: your memories of that are, so it gets deep.

722
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:14,760
Speaker 21: Do you think that because I saw you have like,

723
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 21: it's twenty two or twenty three songs on the project. Yeah,

724
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 21: it's twenty two, I.

725
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 7: Think, so full bonus record full five.

726
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 21: So normally with people who put that many songs in

727
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 21: one place, it's like you think people are gonna listen

728
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 21: and start to finish. But like I and me listening

729
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 21: to it, I don't have any doubt that people will.

730
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 21: Do you think that the conversation that you're having at

731
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 21: the beginning and then the conversation you're having at the end,

732
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 21: is it cohesive or do you just throw songs on there?

733
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 21: Like how do you kind of flowing out of well?

734
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 20: With this project, the last maybe four songs we put

735
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 20: out before the album came out. We use this method

736
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 20: called the waterfall method, where you put songs out and

737
00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 20: then add them to the album later. That was a

738
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 20: conscious decision because I didn't know what people were gonna

739
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,239
Speaker 20: want to hear, So those songs helped me dictate what

740
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 20: I was gonna do with the album, and I still

741
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 20: like those songs, but they weren't exactly what you were

742
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 20: going to get from the full album. So I used

743
00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 20: that as an opportunity to, you know, do some promo

744
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 20: and get the idea of the album out there. But

745
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 20: by the time you get the actual real album, those

746
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 20: eighteen songs are brand new. Those are an experience that

747
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 20: nobody has yet and that everybody's gonna get together. And

748
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 20: that's where to me that more of the conversation is

749
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 20: is from the intro to the eighteen song. Yeah, it's

750
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 20: pretty simple. The whole album is just about keeping it

751
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 20: players motivational. It's get stoned, and there's songs for the

752
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 20: ladies and their songs to ride around to. So as

753
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 20: long as I'm in that pocket, the conversation is good.

754
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,160
Speaker 20: In my opinion, I know what my fans want and

755
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 20: what they expect, so I didn't go outside of that

756
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 20: at all.

757
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 3: We got more with Wiz Khalifa when we come back.

758
00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 3: It's the Breakfast Club Good Morning. More than everybody is.

759
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 8: Jesse larra Is Charlamage, the gay All the Breakfast Club

760
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 8: is still kicking it with Wiz Khalifa, Charlamagne.

761
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 4: Why a sequel left all of you that could be

762
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 4: hit a miss too, That's something.

763
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, I just again listening to the fans.

764
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,440
Speaker 20: Man, everybody was telling me like how much they missed

765
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 20: that sound or that pocket of what I was doing

766
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 20: at that time, or how much they enjoyed it. So

767
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 20: it's nothing for me as an artist to like, you know,

768
00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 20: dig in my bag and get with the producers that

769
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 20: I trust and really not recreate that but do what.

770
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 6: That sounds like now.

771
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 20: But it's the same feeling though, like you know what

772
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 20: I mean, and I'm not scared to do that, And

773
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 20: it's all about the fans. It's offered them and it's

774
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 20: what they want, you know, Like a lot of nostalgic

775
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 20: stuff is coming back.

776
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 6: And my era, like.

777
00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 20: You said, it's fifteen years ago, so it's way yeah,

778
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,040
Speaker 20: it's way further removed than it is closed. So why

779
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 20: not just go ahead and just revisit something that was

780
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 20: you know, big to us and that people appreciate.

781
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 7: The problem with fans though, they trickle and they don't

782
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 7: want you to grow.

783
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 4: So so even though you've grown, like you're a father now,

784
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 4: like your life might be totally different than it was

785
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 4: fifteen years ago.

786
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 7: They're like, no, I want twenty ten. Yeah, that's impossible.

787
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 21: That sounds fling.

788
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 20: I don't think it's impossible really, yeah, because I think

789
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 20: they just want the best. Like I can experiment and

790
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 20: I can sing, and I can do country songs or

791
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 20: pop records, but they're like, yo, we like when you rap,

792
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,760
Speaker 20: or I could wear you know, high fashion and you

793
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 20: know runway stuff, but they're like, we like when you

794
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:13,760
Speaker 20: wear streetwear.

795
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 6: And it's not hard for me to just get right

796
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:16,840
Speaker 6: back into that.

797
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 20: It's like, Okay, I'm trying what I like and I'm

798
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 20: still gonna do that in my off time or if

799
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 20: I get an opportunity to do it, I'm gonna throw

800
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 20: a suit on it, and I'm gonna do a pop record,

801
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 20: but it's not gonna be my song. It'll be somebody

802
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 20: else's and I could still chart and perform it all

803
00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:30,040
Speaker 20: over the world.

804
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,480
Speaker 6: But for my fans, I'm gonna give them what they want.

805
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 21: But you are Dad now data too, and making these

806
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,040
Speaker 21: music and putting this project together, like it does still

807
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 21: sound like Whiskly for it's new and it's innovative, but

808
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 21: it's it's still the same feeling. How do you because

809
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 21: you are different, your dad is so different.

810
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 20: Now Yeah, yeah, I just keep it one hundred Like

811
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 20: that's what I always did. I always just talked about

812
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,040
Speaker 20: my life. I talked about my day. I talk about

813
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 20: my week. So like I've never run out of bars.

814
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,239
Speaker 21: What's it like doing this whole runner? So you got

815
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 21: your coachell.

816
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 6: These dance they don't go nowhere, man, I need some

817
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 6: citys got.

818
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 21: I saw you were you and Amy were dancing on

819
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 21: the side of stage.

820
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 6: Yeah, why are.

821
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 21: People so mad that that's your girlfriend? Why I'm mad

822
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 21: that you deals with your girl.

823
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 20: I don't think people were mad. I think people just

824
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 20: need clickbait. Like that's what the world we live in

825
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 20: these days. But I don't live my life based off

826
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 20: of that. I'm still gonna if I'm hearing some music

827
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 20: like I'm a dance.

828
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 21: But you never have like kind of leaned into all

829
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 21: of that stuff though, Like you've always kind of like

830
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 21: just even if it was happening, you did your own thing.

831
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:32,239
Speaker 21: But with what like people the clickbait stuff. So like

832
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 21: even when you were dating and Baroles now with Amy,

833
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 21: just people are really invested in your life because you're

834
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 21: such a big start and now your kids are growing

835
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 21: up and they're on social media as well too. People

836
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 21: just want to know things and they throw things on Yeah.

837
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 20: I know I'm in control of all of that, though

838
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 20: I give them enough to you know what I'm saying, Like,

839
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 20: like I said, I don't live my life based off

840
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,040
Speaker 20: of it. Yeah, but I know that people are nosy,

841
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,720
Speaker 20: Like you haven't even seen my daughter.

842
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 6: She's almost a year old. So I can keep some

843
00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:58,480
Speaker 6: stuff quiet.

844
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 20: But this is the entertainment industry, so at the end

845
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 20: of the day, people are going to have their perception

846
00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 20: of whatever whatever. But as long as my intentions are good,

847
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 20: I know I'm out here doing exactly what I'm supposed

848
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:10,800
Speaker 20: to be doing, and nobody who really knows me and

849
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,320
Speaker 20: loves me is ever going to be embarrassed by my

850
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 20: actions when I'm outside.

851
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 21: So yeah, you won't be doing nothing. Really, how do

852
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 21: you talk to like a Sebastian's older getting older and

853
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 21: that which is crazy because it's just crazy to see.

854
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 7: Him to get older.

855
00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,879
Speaker 21: No, but it's literally like when you think about when

856
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 21: he was first born to now and just being a

857
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,319
Speaker 21: fan and watching him grow, there's probably so much things

858
00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 21: that you guys, decide when to talk to him about

859
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:34,920
Speaker 21: or not talk to him about. But your celebrity, so

860
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 21: it's different. How do you kind of like what is

861
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 21: your discretion on, Like, here's what I allow him to know,

862
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 21: we're see or whatever, because you can't guard kids from everything.

863
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 6: Yeah, we just keep it one hundred with him too.

864
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:45,240
Speaker 6: He's a smart boy.

865
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,879
Speaker 20: And these kids are we were you know, grew up fast,

866
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:52,240
Speaker 20: but they're growing way faster on the Internet and everything.

867
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,359
Speaker 20: So it's just about keeping it real and you know,

868
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:56,919
Speaker 20: just allowing him to make his own decisions as well.

869
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 6: It's like I can tell you what to do, but

870
00:34:59,320 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 6: you know what's.

871
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 20: And wrong, and just instilling that in him. And also

872
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,879
Speaker 20: his friend group too. That's a real big thing now,

873
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 20: is his friend group. But I feel like just him

874
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 20: being a kid. He's a normal kid. He goes through

875
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,359
Speaker 20: the same things that normal kids go through. He gets

876
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 20: in trouble at school. We have to get on zoom

877
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 20: calls with his teachers, Like all of it on a.

878
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 21: Zoom call with a teacher. How is it, like, how

879
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 21: do the teacher react. I mean the probably use to

880
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:23,319
Speaker 21: celebrity parents, they'd be.

881
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 20: Cool, they be chill, Like I think it helps him

882
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 20: a little bit more too. They're like, oh, we get

883
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 20: to see what here, you can pass this class.

884
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,240
Speaker 7: How is it being a father of a daughter.

885
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,799
Speaker 4: Now, I got four daughters, not his daughter, so I

886
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 4: know daughters bring out a different energy.

887
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 20: Yeah. Man, it's it's super duper sweet. She's she's really

888
00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,720
Speaker 20: young still, She's only eight months, she'll be nine months,

889
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 20: so her personality hasn't come out yet. But it is

890
00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 20: a little bit different having at a little girl. And

891
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 20: I'm older now too as a parent, Like I was

892
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 20: twenty five when I had Bash. I'm thirty seven now,

893
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,320
Speaker 20: so it's just like a whole different mind state, like

894
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,839
Speaker 20: having a new child and it's a girl.

895
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,719
Speaker 7: It was crazy to watch y'all all get older. Yeah, yeah,

896
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 7: I remember that.

897
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:08,600
Speaker 21: Not kids get older.

898
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 4: Because you know what it is. And I don't know

899
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 4: if it's because of the Internet. I don't think we've

900
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 4: had another movement like that, Like when I think about.

901
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,359
Speaker 20: The you and Nick Kendricks and yeah, I feel like

902
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 20: like the twenty sixteen, like Uzzi and Cardy and them,

903
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:25,840
Speaker 20: they they.

904
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 21: Had a movement. But I will say it's because I

905
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,080
Speaker 21: know what you're talking about with Uzzi, especially because I'm

906
00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,720
Speaker 21: from Delaware from Philly, but it was it's still just different,

907
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,879
Speaker 21: Like I can't really describe it, Like the way that

908
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 21: the whole tailor gang and like how we were dressing.

909
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,760
Speaker 21: It was really different.

910
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 7: How often do you revisit the First Christian As now?

911
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 20: I listened to it a lot because we perform it

912
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 20: a lot. Yeah, there's a lot of like festivals and

913
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,720
Speaker 20: places where they're like, can you come through and perform

914
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 20: the whole catalog or give us three songs off of

915
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 20: there or something like that. So I listened to it

916
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 20: and I listened to it for inspiration too. Sometimes I like,

917
00:36:57,160 --> 00:36:59,520
Speaker 20: I sampled a couple of songs on this new one

918
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:00,399
Speaker 20: from the old old one.

919
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,719
Speaker 6: I like threw it in there. You wouldn't even know,

920
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,840
Speaker 6: but just to like keep the DNA.

921
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:06,320
Speaker 21: There, can you get can you tell me so I

922
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:07,520
Speaker 21: can go about you figure it out?

923
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 6: I got to do it again, exactly and again and again.

924
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 21: Because it feels literally I said that it feels like

925
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 21: the original Cushion Oranges even though it's new music. But

926
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 21: and a lot of artists can't do that, not this

927
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 21: far apart. Hmm.

928
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love how you keep Max B's name a lot. Yeah, Yeah,

929
00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 4: he's on the new project.

930
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:24,839
Speaker 5: Yeah.

931
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 6: He's also one of my favorite artists as well. Yeah.

932
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, did you speak.

933
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:29,319
Speaker 6: Here and there?

934
00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 20: Yeah, especially now that the album's coming out and he's

935
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 20: coming home too.

936
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, we talk here and there. It's nothing too crazy

937
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 6: to just be like, I see big Bro.

938
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 7: How dy'all get him on the project over the phone. Yeah,

939
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 7: it's not as good as that.

940
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 20: Yeah, was a voice note. It's easy to do it

941
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 20: on voice notes now and then just line it up.

942
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:48,840
Speaker 6: Like I told you, we manipulated music these days.

943
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 7: So you take the vocal then put the beat behind it.

944
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 20: Yes, I don't want people to start getting their friends

945
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 20: in jail on their records the.

946
00:37:58,680 --> 00:37:59,280
Speaker 7: Whole album.

947
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 20: I don't know how much. I don't know, but don't

948
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 20: do it. They out of trouble.

949
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 4: The other thing I was gonna say too, Man, do

950
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 4: you see the moments in your life when like your

951
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,200
Speaker 4: career just went up, Like for example, like when you

952
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,799
Speaker 4: put out weed and boys, that's another level. You put

953
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 4: out the other black and yellow, that's another level, and

954
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,760
Speaker 4: then see you again. Come on, that's every white person

955
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 4: in America's favorite funeral.

956
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 6: Anthem, favorite funeral it is.

957
00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 20: Yeah, No, I look at my career, like like a

958
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 20: basketball player or something like that, like me being science

959
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,480
Speaker 20: to Atlantic I did really well, like being a major artist.

960
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 6: So I look at it like that.

961
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 4: How do you feel about your children being open to

962
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 4: public scrutiny like on social media commenting, and.

963
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, it is what it is like.

964
00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,600
Speaker 20: They're gonna go through that anyway at school, like they gouts,

965
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 20: snapchat and they be doing all that stuff at school.

966
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 6: So that's just the world that we live in now.

967
00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 20: And like back in the day, we used to rip

968
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,360
Speaker 20: on each other too, so we just didn't have the

969
00:38:58,440 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 20: computer to do it.

970
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 6: But it builds tough skin, and it is what it

971
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 6: is like.

972
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:06,720
Speaker 20: I've always been able to still be confident in myself

973
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 20: and function and not crash out, you know, due to

974
00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 20: what anybody says about me. So I feel like they'll

975
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 20: be all right.

976
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 7: If it's the week whenever you feel yourself about the

977
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 7: crash out or like.

978
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 6: No, no, no, it's not the weird, it's the confidence. Man.

979
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 20: I breathe, I do yoga, I believe in myself. I

980
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 20: got a higher calling.

981
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:27,000
Speaker 6: And sometimes they might be right. I do look funny

982
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 6: sometimes my feet.

983
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 20: My feet are ugly or not ugly, but messed up,

984
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 20: but like you can't get mad at like, you know,

985
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 20: people pointing out your flaws, because we're not perfect, so

986
00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 20: if you point out a flaw, you might be right.

987
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,759
Speaker 3: We got more with Whiz Khalifa when we come back.

988
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 3: It's the Breakfast Club.

989
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 8: Good morning morning everybody at CJ Envy just hilarious. Charlamaine

990
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,200
Speaker 8: the god we are the Breakfast Club. Were still kicking

991
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:49,720
Speaker 8: it with Wiz Khalifa, Lauren.

992
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:52,399
Speaker 21: Since you like, there are people that are younger than

993
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 21: you just in music that I'm sure call you about

994
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 21: different things, because creatively your music does inspire people like

995
00:39:57,760 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 21: you mentioned, but like just as a dad and in

996
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 21: a relationship, a lot of your stuff is public. Like

997
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,360
Speaker 21: I saw a conversation an interview where I think it

998
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 21: was Ambert. She was talking about you guys had to

999
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 21: sit down Sebastian have a conversation. He found her only

1000
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 21: fans or something like that. How do you guide first

1001
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 21: of all yourself and have that conversation with your son,

1002
00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:17,279
Speaker 21: But when your friends, your peers are calling you like yo,

1003
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 21: my girl's doing this online or like whatever, what's your

1004
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 21: conversation with people? Because you handle things so well and

1005
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 21: so gracefully.

1006
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,760
Speaker 20: Nah, I think I don't expect everybody to handle things

1007
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 20: the way that I do, so my advice and sometimes

1008
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 20: it's like man.

1009
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:35,839
Speaker 6: Like that, that's just how it is.

1010
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 20: But you have to accept it and you have to

1011
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 20: understand that that's a part of it as well.

1012
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 6: And it be like that sometimes.

1013
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 20: But we make these decisions based off of what we

1014
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 20: think we can handle and what we can handle, so

1015
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:52,360
Speaker 20: or you're giving a lot of responsibility based off of

1016
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 20: what you can handle and you don't even know you

1017
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 20: ready for it like that. So if you really want this,

1018
00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 20: you're gonna deal with the good and the bad.

1019
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,279
Speaker 6: I'm built for it.

1020
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 20: I know how to smile, I know how to you know,

1021
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,279
Speaker 20: put on a face in front of people who I

1022
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 20: know might have talked on me or tried to cut

1023
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 20: my throat or one up on you know what I mean.

1024
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:11,759
Speaker 20: But it is what it is. Well, I don't get

1025
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 20: no further by exposing all of that. I get further

1026
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 20: just by being me. But a lot of people ain't

1027
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 20: built for.

1028
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 6: It like that. So you know, you really got to

1029
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:21,319
Speaker 6: be like that as a parent.

1030
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,360
Speaker 21: Are you ever really ready to have those like really

1031
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 21: public conversations with us like that's such a public thing

1032
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:28,439
Speaker 21: you have to talk about in your child to see

1033
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 21: and then in private you have to deal with it.

1034
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 21: But then also in public you have to deal with

1035
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 21: it because then y'all talk about the fact that it happened.

1036
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 20: I think, like me, I just keep it pushing, like

1037
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:39,879
Speaker 20: as long as I'm good, Like in the household, you're

1038
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 20: going to have to deal with that or things like that,

1039
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 20: regardless if it's not even directly involved with you. You're still

1040
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,359
Speaker 20: going to have to have some type of conversation like

1041
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 20: that with your kid.

1042
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 6: And it's not easy for anybody.

1043
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,759
Speaker 20: So as soon as they start finding that stuff or

1044
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,839
Speaker 20: looking at that stuff or hearing things about you know,

1045
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,320
Speaker 20: it might be their parent, it might be their sibling,

1046
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:00,919
Speaker 20: it might be you know what I mean, it could

1047
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 20: be whatever.

1048
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,880
Speaker 6: There's no age limit to that.

1049
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 20: Either it happens through their teens, it's gonna happen in

1050
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 20: their twenties.

1051
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,359
Speaker 6: Oh I heard your son is out here.

1052
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:09,439
Speaker 3: Da da da da dah.

1053
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 6: Right, I don't even know.

1054
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,480
Speaker 20: What that's like yet, But we go through the stages.

1055
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 20: Every parent's gonna go through the stage. But as far

1056
00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,160
Speaker 20: as publicly, I don't live my life for the public,

1057
00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 20: So I don't even like I don't even consider that

1058
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 20: when I'm making my moves. I don't care, Like I

1059
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 20: don't hear it, I don't digest it. It's not it

1060
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 20: ain't it ain't real to me. And if it pops up,

1061
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 20: then it's something that I could you know what I mean.

1062
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 20: I'll deal with it in the moment, but it's like

1063
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:34,160
Speaker 20: I ain't tripping on none of that.

1064
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 7: Are you gonna keep secrets from your kids?

1065
00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 6: What kind of secrets?

1066
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 7: Just in general?

1067
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 4: Like you always tell people that you know, you should

1068
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,319
Speaker 4: always have conversations with your parents because you'll find out

1069
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:44,560
Speaker 4: that they had a life before they were your parents.

1070
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think having how old are your kids?

1071
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 7: Sixteen, nine, sixty.

1072
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,879
Speaker 20: Three, Yeah, having a twelve year old, it's like I'm

1073
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 20: finding out that they know way more than you.

1074
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 6: Actually think that they know.

1075
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 20: So it's hard to keep secrets when they're telling you

1076
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 20: that they know that you thought that they didn't. No,

1077
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,239
Speaker 20: So it's like, damn you, there ain't no secrets, like

1078
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 20: for real, for real you I didn't even know I

1079
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 20: was gonna have to explain.

1080
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 6: That to you.

1081
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 20: But it's just part of it, Like because I think

1082
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 20: the benefit of that is them not having to hear

1083
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,760
Speaker 20: it from somebody else. I was raised by my cousins

1084
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 20: and you know what I mean, a bunch of eighteen

1085
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:22,879
Speaker 20: year olds and twenty year olds when I was his age,

1086
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 20: so I was learning things a little bit differently, Like

1087
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 20: the filter was totally different. So I would rather be

1088
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 20: able to give my kids that knowledge than like the streets.

1089
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:33,760

Speaker 4: You've been a mentor to a lot of great people.

1095
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,760
Speaker 4: And I recently saw this thing called the Mount Rushmore

1096
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 4: white rappers and the good brother Mac Miller was on it.

1097

00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 4: You feel knowing that you was a mentor to him?

1100
00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 4: He's the greatest rap was Eminem, it was Mac Miller.

1101
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 20: They shouldn't be separating white rappers and black rappers.

1102
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 6: They're all rappers. And mac Miller is an amazing artist.

1103
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 5: Bro.

1104
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 20: Like I watched him, you know, come from just being

1105
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,879
Speaker 20: a kid in the studio to like really changing how

1106
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 20: people digesting listening to music like on his own, And

1107
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 20: of course we started. He started like kind of after

1108
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 20: I was doing what I was doing, so it was

1109
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 20: people associated me and him together like like I was.

1110
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 6: Doing that for him or something like that.

1111
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,040
Speaker 20: But he was just inspired by what he was around,

1112
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,320
Speaker 20: and as soon as he like branched off and started

1113
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 20: doing this thing, he gained his own identity, his own

1114
00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:51,239
Speaker 20: fan base, his own expectations of what his music is,

1115
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 20: and his own you know, love and legacy.

1116
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:56,080
Speaker 6: For what his music is. So I love I love

1117
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 6: that kid.

1118
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 4: It's been it's been seven years since Macpasz. Do you

Speaker 4: have those moment you like here.

1120
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,200
Speaker 20: It kind of still bothers me just because like he's

1121
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,319
Speaker 20: not here, like you know what I mean. And that's

1122
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 20: the that's the part that sucks because it happened like

1123
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,480
Speaker 20: close to my birthday. So every time it's around my birthday,

1124
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,879
Speaker 20: they celebrating the well, you know, celebrating his life too,

1125
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,680
Speaker 20: so I'm always reminded. I'm like, damn, bro, that was

1126
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,239
Speaker 20: just like it's like sometimes when people pass, it's like yo,

1127
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 20: that's bro, Like yeah, you never really it never really

00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,440
Speaker 20: Nah, not really, because I knew him personally, so we

1132
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:36,319
Speaker 20: would have conversations and you know, he was like, I think,

1133
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 20: out of respect, everybody don't speak on like how what

1134
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 20: he was dealing with, you know what I'm saying, So

1135
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,239
Speaker 20: we just like talk about his legacy. But it was

1136
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:46,960
Speaker 20: it was a lot to see him go through that.

1137
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 4: Just to see you smile mm hmm. Was that a

1138
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:54,120

00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,320
Speaker 4: with the organize crime seriously, man, if you can create,

1214
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 4: you know, a criminal enterprise, and you can also you

1215
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 4: also have the brains to start some type of small business.

1216
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,600
Speaker 4: I'm just sick of hearing about young people coming together

1217
00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:22,160
Speaker 4: to form drug rings and fraud schemes, even organized stuff.

1218
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 4: If you can put so much time and energy and

1219
00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:26,439
Speaker 4: doing the wrong thing, then you can put that same

1220
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:28,719
Speaker 4: time and energy into doing the right thing. Okay, you

1223
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,640
Speaker 4: group operation is a musk. But why do we only

1224
00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 4: seem to see unity in group operation when folks are

1225
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:43,400

Speaker 4: Memphis men sadly are the latest example of that. Would

1229
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,520

1247
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,080

Speaker 4: law abiding citizens just trying to go about their day.

Speaker 7: Okay.

1258
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 4: Not only is this a criminal enterprise, it's a whole production.

1259
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:17,160
Speaker 4: You all probably had glorilla blasting, Okay, cameras out just

1262
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 4: unlawful act of throwing it back in a way that

1263
00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:34,320
Speaker 4: disturbs the peace, blocks traffic, and disrupts people's everyday lives.

1264
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:37,799
Speaker 4: Why we cannot let the ass cartel get away with this?

1265
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,840
Speaker 4: Are we really gonna sit back and allow an underground

1266
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:44,759
Speaker 4: network of professional rump shakers to disrupt society? People like

1267
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 4: this don't think of anybody but themselves. The only real

1268
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:51,640
Speaker 4: luxury any of us have is time. People, Okay, because

1269
00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,680

1272
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,760
Speaker 4: the way, and you're stuck in traffic because five grown

1273
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 4: ass loose booty bandits decided to turn the highway into

1274
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:08,200
Speaker 4: Magic City Monday. They are all charged with obstructing a

1275
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:11,560
Speaker 4: highway or passageway. But I feel like this should be

1276
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,400
Speaker 4: a free cocase. This is a free cocase.

1277
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:14,640
Speaker 7: Okay.

1278
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,400
Speaker 4: There has to be a stiffer punishment for this organized

1279
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 4: booty movement because this was a coordinated effort to weaponized

1280
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 4: the wobble in public. Where is President Trump to signed

1281

1282
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 7: Huh?

1283
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:29,400

1284
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:31,799
Speaker 4: men will mimic this behavior all over America. This could

1285
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 4: get out of hand. Do you really want criminal organizations

1286
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,800

Speaker 3: Come up with the name.

1357
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:28,280
Speaker 1: We were doing our first podcast and it was before

00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,400
Speaker 1: we were doing like the audio version of the video version.

1359
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: It was just the audio version, and we started the

1360
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:36,719
Speaker 1: podcast without a name, and we sat there and we

1361
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:40,000
Speaker 1: kind of was coming up with like different names, and

1362
00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 1: one of us said, well, how about the k C crew.

1363
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:43,640
Speaker 19: You know, our last name is Casey. We have a

1364
00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:46,000
Speaker 19: whole crew of kids, a whole gaggle. What about the

1365
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:46,560
Speaker 19: k C crew?

1366
00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:50,040
Speaker 1: And then people you know, DMed us and emailed and whatnot,

1367
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:51,160
Speaker 1: and they said, yeah, we love that name.

1368
00:55:51,160 --> 00:55:53,840
Speaker 19: We love that name. So we decided to call ourselves

1369
00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:54,520
Speaker 19: the k CY Crew.

1370
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:56,160
Speaker 7: Amazing that it came about.

1371
00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,759
Speaker 21: And whenever you post on social you always hashtag the

1372
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:02,160
Speaker 21: create the Casey Crew. Yes, MV does as well. But

1373
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 21: one of the things that you guys do really good

1374
00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 21: from the podcast to bringing it online is you pay

1375
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:10,440
Speaker 21: attention to the comments and the responses Kia. Yeah, and

1376
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:12,959
Speaker 21: you guys bring them into the podcast, but you also

1377
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 21: reflect on them on social media. So I want to

1378
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,640
Speaker 21: read one of the posts that we pulled and I

1379
00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:21,120
Speaker 21: thought that this was great. You inspired me. This is

1380
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:23,200
Speaker 21: someone commenting to you guys, you inspired me. I wish

1381
00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 21: all parents had this level of intention, planning and vibe.

1382
00:56:26,520 --> 00:56:30,439
Speaker 21: Truth is, most parents, moms are stressed, over worked by

1383
00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,279
Speaker 21: trying to make ends meet, in harboring trauma. Therefore, it's

1384
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:36,080
Speaker 21: passed down to the children. You've passed down light and

1385
00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,200
Speaker 21: love because of that and because of what you are

1386
00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,280
Speaker 21: high five to all of the parents during their best

1387
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:43,399
Speaker 21: and you use that as a moment to talk about like, no,

1388
00:56:43,600 --> 00:56:45,959
Speaker 21: it gets a little crazy over here, but oh yeah,

1389
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 21: but it's important because when you if you've ever been

1390
00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 21: around your family, it is a lot of love and

1391
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:51,520
Speaker 21: a lot of light. But I'm sure on inside things

1392
00:56:51,560 --> 00:56:52,120
Speaker 21: get crazy.

1393
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:54,160
Speaker 19: Well, you know, that's a big misconception.

1394
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:58,480
Speaker 1: People assume that because you live a certain lifestyle or

1395
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:02,600
Speaker 1: because you've earned a certain financial status that you don't

1396
00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:05,680
Speaker 1: have the same problems that they have, you know, So

1397
00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 1: that comment really really stood out to me because she

1398
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 1: spoke on the troubles and the trauma and the word

1399
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,520
Speaker 1: trauma that she used, and Rashan will speak on the

1400
00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 1: word trauma sometimes he feels as though it's a word

1401
00:57:18,040 --> 00:57:22,080
Speaker 1: that's overused, but it's a word that represents something that

1402
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 1: so many people endure. The difference now is that we

1403
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:29,560
Speaker 1: have words to identify how we feel and what we

1404
00:57:29,600 --> 00:57:33,960
Speaker 1: go through, and it's articulated. Because when our feelings and

1405
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:38,800
Speaker 1: our experiences are articulated, then you're able to communicate. People

1406
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:41,720
Speaker 1: are able to understand you, You're able to understand other people.

1407
00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:43,520
Speaker 19: You're able to have empathy.

1408
00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:45,640
Speaker 1: And compassion for other people because now we're all speaking

1409
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:49,960
Speaker 1: in universal language. Like the word triggered, like the word trauma,

1410
00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 1: like the word of gas. You know, these are things

1411
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:57,760
Speaker 1: that some may think are overused now, but yes, but

1412
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,680
Speaker 1: there is value there. There is value there because now

1413
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,680
Speaker 1: we can see each other, we understand each other.

1414
00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 7: When you're trying to create.

1415
00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:07,280
Speaker 4: A safe space, you know, how is it to venture

1416
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 4: into an unsafe space like.

1417
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:11,520
Speaker 7: The comments, especially when somebody looks on the air every day.

1418
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:12,160
Speaker 5: You know what I mean.

1419
00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:13,920
Speaker 7: You have an opinion about every day.

1420
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:18,080
Speaker 1: So I read every single comment.

1421
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:25,560
Speaker 19: I interact. It started when I had a lower follower account.

1422
00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:30,400
Speaker 1: It started because I always felt that if someone follows me,

1423
00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:34,480
Speaker 1: that's an investment. In a small investment, maybe, but it's

1424
00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:38,760
Speaker 1: an investment that they put into me. And they're looking

1425
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 1: at my content content, they're looking at my pictures. And

1426
00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:44,720
Speaker 1: you left a comment, I want to respond back to you.

1427
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:47,440
Speaker 1: I used to respond to almost every comment, you know,

1428
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:50,600
Speaker 1: but then when my followers went up, I wasn't really

1429
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:52,760
Speaker 1: able to do that, and that was something that you know,

1430
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:54,560
Speaker 1: I had to take that on the chin. I wasn't

1431
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:58,200
Speaker 1: able to. But it's a sign of respect. And you said,

1432
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 1: why do I do that to myself? Because I'm strong

1433
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:03,320
Speaker 1: enough to do that. I'm strong enough to do that.

1434
00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:06,800
Speaker 1: The comments don't if they are negative, and I have

1435
00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 1: to say, I don't receive a lot of negative comments, thankfully,

1436
00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 1: thank god.

1437
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:13,640
Speaker 19: But if they are negative, I look at it as insight.

1438
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,320
Speaker 1: I might ask myself, why might someone have that perspective

1439
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,200
Speaker 1: to me? It feeds my mental because I'm a thinker.

1440
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,200
Speaker 1: I'm a deep thinker. I'm all over things. I love

1441
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:26,960
Speaker 1: to understand people. So for me, the comments are food,

1442
00:59:27,280 --> 00:59:29,760
Speaker 1: and they also bring me happiness when they're good. It

1443
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,200
Speaker 1: lets you know that you're reaching someone, you're whatever it

1444
00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 1: is that you're putting out because it's in the sense

1445
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:35,520
Speaker 1: of sharing.

1446
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:37,880
Speaker 19: There's a lot of things that I don't share, so if.

1447
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:41,000
Speaker 1: I choose to share and it's well received, then that's

1448
00:59:41,000 --> 00:59:42,560
Speaker 1: a good feeling. I think that's why a lot of

1449
00:59:42,560 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 1: people are on or part of the.

1450
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 19: Reason why a lot of people are on social media.

1451
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:47,560
Speaker 1: You know what I mean, And I'm strong enough to

1452
00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:49,800
Speaker 1: do so, and that's because of the way that I

1453
00:59:49,840 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: was raised. I was raised to be a very strong

1454
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 1: and resilient woman. It comes directly from my parents. I'm

1455
00:59:59,200 --> 01:00:01,880
Speaker 1: fortunate in the sense that I can look back and

1456
01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 1: identify things about the way that I was raised that

1457
01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:11,200
Speaker 1: created the individual, the woman, the mother, the wife that

1458
01:00:11,320 --> 01:00:14,200
Speaker 1: I am, and it's for me. It's a very beautiful thing.

1459
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:16,920
Speaker 1: Both of my parents are no longer here, so to

1460
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 1: be able to say, wow, when my mother did this

1461
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,320
Speaker 1: every single day, or when she took me here once

1462
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 1: a week, or when she said this to me, and

1463
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:28,640
Speaker 1: those compliments and that the way that she fed me

1464
01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:31,120
Speaker 1: and she fed my soul and the joy that I

1465
01:00:31,160 --> 01:00:34,040
Speaker 1: experienced and the amount of fun that I had as

1466
01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 1: a kid, Like I loved my life.

1467
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:37,400
Speaker 19: And it's not because we were wealthy. We were not.

1468
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:41,080
Speaker 1: We're a middle class family. I'm from Brooklyn, from East Flatbush.

1469
01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:44,760
Speaker 1: We weren't raised you know, like I'm from an urban area.

1470
01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:48,160
Speaker 1: And it's not had nothing to do with money. I

1471
01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 1: had nothing to do with wealth. It had everything to

1472
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:55,120
Speaker 1: do with what my parents poured into my home and

1473
01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 1: the love that I felt. And that is what we

1474
01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 1: put into writing this book. There's a lot of books

1475
01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 1: that we could have written, you know, so many ideas came.

1476
01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:06,240
Speaker 1: Oh because Real Life or Love was a huge success.

1477
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 1: It was a national bestseller. So it's like, go you

1478
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 1: write a book about this. We said, we want to

1479
01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,160
Speaker 1: write a book about family. It's what we know best.

1480
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:15,880
Speaker 1: It's what we know best. We've had so many ups,

1481
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 1: so many downs, so many wins, so many losses, so

1482
01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:21,960
Speaker 1: many things that we thought we were doing right that

1483
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:25,400
Speaker 1: we weren't. That we had to regroup and make sure

1484
01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:28,680
Speaker 1: that we were balanced, you knows, as a married couple.

1485
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 1: Because when we didn't agree, it's like my way is better,

1486
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 1: know what my way is? Better and this, you know,

1487
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:35,400
Speaker 1: we had to come to a meeting of the minds. Yeah,

1488
01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:38,600
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So a relationship, you know,

1489
01:01:38,640 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 1: the relationship grew, you know, because we had to learn

1490
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:44,600
Speaker 1: how to see eye to eye as parents. So there

1491
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:46,760
Speaker 1: was just there was many many ups and downs, and

1492
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,640
Speaker 1: we wanted to pour that all into a book, you know,

1493
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:52,160
Speaker 1: we wanted to let everyone know, like it's really that

1494
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 1: village mentality. It's really that like we are a community,

1495
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:59,920
Speaker 1: especially our black community, because I'm black.

1496
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:09,480
Speaker 22: Yes, yeah, yeah, for the record, for the record, Spanish,

1497
01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:17,520
Speaker 22: but I know that you're well aware because you speak

1498
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 22: to things of this nature often.

1499
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 1: But our history is being erased in schools and it's

1500
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:31,680
Speaker 1: being stripped away silently in society. So the foundation starts

1501
01:02:31,760 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 1: in our homes. We have to teach children how to

1502
01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 1: identify themselves. We have to teach children that sense of

1503
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:45,120
Speaker 1: belonging and they have to understand that they come from

1504
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:48,960
Speaker 1: something meaningful. And if you leave it up to society

1505
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:51,120
Speaker 1: to teach them that, you're going to wind up with

1506
01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,760
Speaker 1: children that are lost, that are overlooked, that don't know

1507
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:59,000
Speaker 1: how to identify themselves, that get taken advantage of, and

1508
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:03,040
Speaker 1: that are susceptible to what society wants for them. So

1509
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:07,920
Speaker 1: for us, our core, our nucleus, our foundation, our home

1510
01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,560
Speaker 1: supersedes anything else in this world.

1511
01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 19: We put our family first.

1512
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:15,400

Speaker 3: Absolutely the more lenient parent.

1525
01:03:47,360 --> 01:03:48,600
Speaker 7: Who's the more lenient parent?

1526
01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 3: It depends what it is.

1527
01:03:51,400 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 8: You know, everybody knows my dad is retired police officer

1528
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:56,160
Speaker 8: and ex military, So I'm disciplined.

1529
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:57,920
Speaker 3: I was the yell of the screamer because.

1530
01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:03,200
Speaker 8: I said, so, Gia is a lot different, like seven hours,

1531
01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:05,320
Speaker 8: like she wants to know why.

1532
01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:07,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, did you feel that? I thought she likes to

1533
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:08,040
Speaker 7: break down.

1534
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:09,760
Speaker 3: You don't get it, You're gonna get it.

1535
01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 7: By the end of the right exactly.

1536
01:04:13,520 --> 01:04:15,280
Speaker 8: So you got to think, really think before you speak

1537
01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:17,440
Speaker 8: to up because she's like, all right, explain that, like

1538
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:19,680
Speaker 8: I just said it just because no, no, no, explain this.

1539
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:23,520
Speaker 8: But so I'm more like, because I said so, She's

1540
01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:25,640
Speaker 8: more like, well, you can't go to the more because

1541
01:04:25,680 --> 01:04:28,439
Speaker 8: of this, because this could happen. Explain your parents, because

1542
01:04:28,440 --> 01:04:30,440
Speaker 8: now mine is my dad was like no, and you

1543
01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 8: didn't ask why, it just what it was.

1544
01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:34,520
Speaker 3: What it was you just figured out later is a

1545
01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:35,080
Speaker 3: little different.

1546
01:04:35,160 --> 01:04:36,240
Speaker 7: I prefer the explanation.

1547
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:38,840
Speaker 19: Yeah. So that's how my parents were with me.

1548
01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:43,200
Speaker 1: I knew that my parents were invested in me living

1549
01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:48,000
Speaker 1: a happy, fulfilled and fun life, and we didn't go

1550
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: lightly on the fund. And because I knew that at

1551
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:54,720
Speaker 1: the end, and my parents never said no just for

1552
01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:57,720
Speaker 1: the sake of saying no. Because parents are overworked and

1553
01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 1: they are stressed, and the last thing they want to

1554
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 1: hear and they walk through the door is mommy, can.

1555
01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:04,040
Speaker 19: I can you take me here? Can you buy me this?

1556
01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:07,160
Speaker 19: Can we watch this together? Can we go like flow down?

1557
01:05:07,600 --> 01:05:07,680
Speaker 6: No?

1558
01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:09,600
Speaker 19: And sometimes you say no, you don't even know why

1559
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:14,440
Speaker 19: you're saying no. That's not a good parenting. Technique. You

1560
01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:16,560
Speaker 19: really have to take a moment. You have to take

1561
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:16,840
Speaker 19: a beat.

1562
01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:18,680
Speaker 1: We all have to take a beat to listen to

1563
01:05:18,760 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 1: our children and be patient. And because I knew that

1564
01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:25,120
Speaker 1: my parents were invested in me that way, I knew

1565
01:05:25,120 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 1: that when they said no, there was a good reason.

1566
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:27,720
Speaker 5: Yea.

1567
01:05:27,800 --> 01:05:30,000
Speaker 4: How do you make sure you're raising the kids out

1568
01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:31,280
Speaker 4: of love and not fear?

1569
01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:34,840
Speaker 1: Though that's such a good question, it comes with the explanations,

1570
01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 1: do you know what I mean. I don't tell them

1571
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,760
Speaker 1: you can't do this and you can't do that. Why

1572
01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:41,200
Speaker 1: because I said so, Let.

1573
01:05:41,160 --> 01:05:44,160
Speaker 19: Me explain to you why. You know, sometimes we'll watch.

1574
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:46,680
Speaker 1: The news together, you know, when they're at an appropriate

1575
01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:49,440
Speaker 1: age at about nine years old. You know, I think

1576
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:52,120
Speaker 1: that they're mature enough to ingest certain things. So what

1577
01:05:52,200 --> 01:05:54,560
Speaker 1: I do is I would record it on my DVR

1578
01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,800
Speaker 1: and then cherry pick different stories that I think that

1579
01:05:57,840 --> 01:06:01,320
Speaker 1: are appropriate, that speak to the protect the measures that

1580
01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:03,720
Speaker 1: we take on them, you know what I mean. So

1581
01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,680
Speaker 1: it's like, if I see a child abduction that's not

1582
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:09,760
Speaker 1: too traumatic, I might save that and then show it

1583
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:11,440
Speaker 1: to a child that's old enough.

1584
01:06:11,480 --> 01:06:11,640
Speaker 16: You know.

1585
01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:13,920
Speaker 1: I did it with Madison, I did it with Logan

1586
01:06:14,240 --> 01:06:16,960
Speaker 1: and I find that they take that into their adult

1587
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:21,120
Speaker 1: lives and they're very, very like Madison walks around like

1588
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 1: a police officer.

1589
01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 19: She has a boyfriend.

1590
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 1: His name is Andrew, and when they go into a restaurant,

1591
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 1: she's the one that sits facing the door. She feels

1592
01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:33,439
Speaker 1: like the protective force in that relationship because her head

1593
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:35,600
Speaker 1: is always on swoovel, you know what I mean. She

1594
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:38,920
Speaker 1: could tell you a car that was driving six cars ahead,

1595
01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:42,560
Speaker 1: you know, and she's always paying attention to license plates.

1596
01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:45,520
Speaker 1: When she was young, I used to go through like

1597
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:49,919
Speaker 1: in case you get kidnapped scenarios because it's the type

1598
01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:51,160
Speaker 1: of information.

1599
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:55,680
Speaker 19: That can save a life. Girls are being taken. So

1600
01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:56,760
Speaker 19: if you have.

1601
01:06:56,800 --> 01:07:00,680
Speaker 1: A young girl, it is very proactive to educate them

1602
01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:04,600
Speaker 1: about the realities and the tricks and the cons that people.

1603
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:07,520
Speaker 1: You know, because even me as proactive as I try

1604
01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 1: to be, that whole technique with a baby crying outside

1605
01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:14,160
Speaker 1: your house, I would I would be inclined to open

1606
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,640
Speaker 1: the door if I hear a baby crying and someone

1607
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:19,120
Speaker 1: that sounds like a mother yelling and screaming outside the house.

1608
01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:22,439
Speaker 1: I am that type of person, but me, but now

1609
01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:30,280
Speaker 1: I am I am. I would my heart with my

1610
01:07:30,320 --> 01:07:32,680
Speaker 1: I would be inclined to open that door. But now

1611
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:35,080
Speaker 1: with all the knowledge and some of the good things

1612
01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:39,360
Speaker 1: about social media is that so much knowledge is being spread,

1613
01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:43,480
Speaker 1: so now we're consuming good information as well. So I

1614
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:46,880
Speaker 1: heard that, I'm like, wow, that's absolutely right. It jogs

1615
01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:47,920
Speaker 1: your thinking.

1616
01:07:47,760 --> 01:07:49,400
Speaker 19: It makes you say, oh, wait a minute.

1617
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:52,560
Speaker 1: I do have to put myself first, even if someone else,

1618
01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:54,840
Speaker 1: a stranger, seems to be in need. I have to

1619
01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:59,160
Speaker 1: prioritize myself, my home, my family. So you know, it's

1620
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:01,840
Speaker 1: it's important to spread information and to teach your kids,

1621
01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:04,080
Speaker 1: even though it may be a little scary, but you

1622
01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:05,320
Speaker 1: do have to do it in a way where it

1623
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:06,520
Speaker 1: doesn't incite fear.

1624
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:08,840
Speaker 21: How y'all pick and choose? What do y'all like? What

1625
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:10,920
Speaker 21: y'all decide to be transparent about? Like it's just so

1626
01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:13,560
Speaker 21: much your kids are getting older and they're like, you know,

1627
01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:15,840
Speaker 21: like they they're wanting to walk by themselves with their friends.

1628
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:17,080
Speaker 3: I would know if it was up.

1629
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:19,679
Speaker 8: To me, I'm transparent with everything. Right has to hold

1630
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 8: back a lot, like for instance, like with Logan, right,

1631
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,479
Speaker 8: Logan when he was in high school used to get

1632
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:26,120
Speaker 8: picked on all the time, but he used to get

1633
01:08:26,120 --> 01:08:27,479
Speaker 8: picked on guess for what reason?

1634
01:08:28,560 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 3: No, because because Charlamagne, yes, yes, so.

1635
01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:41,679
Speaker 8: When you gave me to ask, that's why he gave

1636
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:42,320
Speaker 8: me the buck cake.

1637
01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:44,120
Speaker 7: Not much better.

1638
01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:55,479
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not about it used to be getting

1639
01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:56,760
Speaker 3: made fun of course of that.

1640
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:59,080
Speaker 8: So but the reason I'm so transparent is there's so

1641
01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:02,000
Speaker 8: many things family and people dealing with the same things

1642
01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:04,200
Speaker 8: would never want to talk about it scared to. So

1643
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 8: that's why I talked about the orgasm thing in the

1644
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,679
Speaker 8: first book. That's why in this in the second book,

1645
01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:11,960
Speaker 8: we talk about, you know, the time that thing from

1646
01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 8: the first and.

1647
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:19,360
Speaker 3: Every view every.

1648
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:23,800
Speaker 8: You want to do some right, no, even like in

1649
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:26,040
Speaker 8: this book we talk about the time that that U

1650
01:09:26,520 --> 01:09:29,559
Speaker 8: Logan found a bloody condom at one of his friend's house.

1651
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:32,160
Speaker 3: So he can't but he's comfortable.

1652
01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 6: Why you're looking at that, It wasn't mine.

1653
01:09:36,240 --> 01:09:42,559
Speaker 22: He's like, oh he fout bloody house a.

1654
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:47,599
Speaker 1: Right friend friends and and he was like maybe nine

1655
01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:49,920
Speaker 1: years old, nine years old, about nine years old, but

1656
01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:50,960
Speaker 1: he was comfortable enough.

1657
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 19: To was in the basement and the little boy had

1658
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:55,240
Speaker 19: an older brother.

1659
01:09:56,360 --> 01:10:05,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, so she had that's what we had the sex

1660
01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,240
Speaker 3: talk and had to have the sex talks with.

1661
01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:10,120
Speaker 7: Logan and that what kind of sex talk?

1662
01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:12,760
Speaker 3: Though it wasn't a backdoor sex talk.

1663
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 5: That ain't just.

1664
01:10:19,280 --> 01:10:23,040
Speaker 1: They got a full blown sex talk. They had to

1665
01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:26,280
Speaker 1: understand because if you leave it back.

1666
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:28,880
Speaker 7: That's what I'm really trying to figure out. Why was

1667
01:10:28,920 --> 01:10:31,559
Speaker 7: the condon bloody? I'm really when somebody ran red?

1668
01:10:31,640 --> 01:10:36,360
Speaker 3: Like yeah, somebody, but.

1669
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:40,840
Speaker 15: Somebody ran red.

1670
01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:42,519
Speaker 21: Don't be like a first time thing.

1671
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:45,720
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but no they at that point I found

1672
01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:47,880
Speaker 1: that they were old enough and mature enough, and you're

1673
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:51,920
Speaker 1: they're encountering things now, these conversations are being had amongst

1674
01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:54,880
Speaker 1: their peers, and I knew that if I didn't set

1675
01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 1: them straight, that they were going to be absorbing all

1676
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:03,040
Speaker 1: of this wrong information and wrong ideas. So I told

1677
01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:07,599
Speaker 1: him sex feels good. It's a pleasureful experience. God made

1678
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:11,400
Speaker 1: us that way because God wants us to reproduce. He

1679
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,800
Speaker 1: wants us to create offspring. So he made it something

1680
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:17,560
Speaker 1: that we would enjoy. But it's meant for someone that

1681
01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:21,920
Speaker 1: you love, and that's the reason why. So they're like, oh, okay,

1682
01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:26,800
Speaker 1: so what is it like and what did you say? Okay,

1683
01:11:26,880 --> 01:11:29,680
Speaker 1: if I'm being honest, I told them that there is

1684
01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 1: a penis, and there is a vagina and my son

1685
01:11:32,160 --> 01:11:33,560
Speaker 1: Logan was like, so like this.

1686
01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:40,920
Speaker 15: I was like, yeah, something like that.

1687
01:11:41,400 --> 01:11:43,559
Speaker 19: I said, you know, some people look at it as

1688
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:44,479
Speaker 19: a negative thing.

1689
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:47,760
Speaker 2: No, no, No, he really didn't know.

1690
01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:48,599
Speaker 21: He really didn't.

1691
01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:49,599
Speaker 3: He really didn't.

1692
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 19: Even like my eleven year old son right now, he

1693
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,000
Speaker 19: does not know. So when they asked me questions that

1694
01:11:55,120 --> 01:11:58,280
Speaker 19: I don't want them to know about. And he's older

1695
01:11:58,360 --> 01:11:59,400
Speaker 19: than Logan was.

1696
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:02,320
Speaker 1: But now with I have a better grip on his

1697
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:04,640
Speaker 1: friends and a grip on what he's exposed to on

1698
01:12:04,760 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 1: his phone and whatnot in parameters boundaries. So I'm really

1699
01:12:08,400 --> 01:12:11,080
Speaker 1: abreast of what he knows and what he doesn't and

1700
01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:14,120
Speaker 1: our lines of communication are way better.

1701
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:17,439

1711
01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:47,240
Speaker 18: Jess, you have six kids, so is there anything that

1712
01:12:47,320 --> 01:12:49,880
Speaker 18: you felt like in the beginning, I didn't know.

1713
01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:52,320
Speaker 3: And until y'all got to that six.

1714
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:55,120
Speaker 19: Kid, of course, yeah, Like what were some of the

1715
01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:56,400
Speaker 19: I'll give you another.

1716
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:58,240
Speaker 3: Thing, but you didn't know. You just was like, well

1717
01:12:58,479 --> 01:12:59,559
Speaker 3: man and Raseean winging.

1718
01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:02,439
Speaker 1: This, I'll give you an example. So one of the

1719
01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:04,920
Speaker 1: fails and this was something that we disagreed on. So

1720
01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:09,519
Speaker 1: it was the explaining everything to the kids. I have

1721
01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:11,600
Speaker 1: the patience to do it. And he really is a

1722
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:15,400
Speaker 1: because I said so type of guy and it worked

1723
01:13:15,600 --> 01:13:18,679
Speaker 1: beautifully with Madison, but with Logan from a young age,

1724
01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:21,480
Speaker 1: I would explain everything to him and he's a mama's.

1725
01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:24,080
Speaker 3: Boy times thirty, you know what I mean.

1726
01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:26,200
Speaker 19: Like we're very very close.

1727
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,080
Speaker 1: But it kind of went wrong with him because what

1728
01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:32,280
Speaker 1: we found was that we created an environment where he

1729
01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:36,840
Speaker 1: felt that he was entitled to an explanation and he

1730
01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:40,800
Speaker 1: felt as though because we gave him too safe of

1731
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:44,760
Speaker 1: a space, that he could challenge me and he can

1732
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 1: challenge a decision that I made. So we had to

1733
01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:52,880
Speaker 1: dial that back to boundaries and then we had to

1734
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:57,200
Speaker 1: teach boundaries and let him know his place. So that

1735
01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:01,080
Speaker 1: was a fail in a sense. And Rashamad always look

1736
01:14:01,080 --> 01:14:03,000
Speaker 1: at me like, see I told you, Like see I

1737
01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:03,960
Speaker 1: told you, because.

1738
01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:05,120
Speaker 3: He's the bad guy, because now I got to go

1739
01:14:05,360 --> 01:14:07,400
Speaker 3: discipline that. So now me and Logan get into it.

1740
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:09,240
Speaker 7: And now you can't beat Logan because Logan.

1741
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:13,680
Speaker 8: So now I got a discipline Logan, and then me

1742
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:15,439
Speaker 8: and Logan get into it. But one thing about Logan

1743
01:14:15,520 --> 01:14:17,320
Speaker 8: and all of our kids, which is the craziest thing,

1744
01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:20,439
Speaker 8: is they're very forgiven. Like with Logan, I have to

1745
01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:23,000
Speaker 8: get sometimes so disrespectful for him to understand. And the

1746
01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:24,640
Speaker 8: next day he's like, hey Dad, what's up. And I'm like,

1747
01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:26,800
Speaker 8: hey Dad, what's up. But that's how he is, and

1748
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:29,160
Speaker 8: he just has conversations. But we have those conversations and

1749
01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 8: we understand and we talk. But he's he's the one

1750
01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:33,360
Speaker 8: that just like his mom love.

1751
01:14:33,400 --> 01:14:34,960
Speaker 7: Did y'all have a family mission state?

1752
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:36,000
Speaker 6: Yes?

1753
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:37,719
Speaker 7: What is the mission statement?

1754
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:39,560
Speaker 8: And tell people the importance of that, well, just so

1755
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:40,920
Speaker 8: we know we don't have it on our wall and

1756
01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 8: then make the kids read it when they walk in

1757
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:42,559
Speaker 8: the house.

1758
01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:45,280
Speaker 3: It's it's not like that.

1759
01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:48,360
Speaker 8: So our mission statement is just something that we, you know,

1760
01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:51,160
Speaker 8: as a family, we all live by, right and I'll

1761
01:14:51,160 --> 01:14:53,000
Speaker 8: read some of them. And the reason is is we

1762
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:55,599
Speaker 8: are a close unit. Right, So if you see us together,

1763
01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:57,760
Speaker 8: we're all always out together. You see me the other

1764
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:01,000
Speaker 8: day with Jackson, You've seen me before for so the

1765
01:15:01,040 --> 01:15:03,160
Speaker 8: misterstatement is we are a unit, right. We all ride

1766
01:15:03,200 --> 01:15:05,439
Speaker 8: together like we are really a unit, a unit. I'm

1767
01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:08,600
Speaker 8: an only child, so I'm heavy into taking care of

1768
01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:11,840
Speaker 8: each other. We respect each other, of course, simple like

1769
01:15:12,080 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 8: we make sure that you know, we respect each other's feeling.

1770
01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:16,080
Speaker 8: We always have each other's backs. That's one thing that

1771
01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,400
Speaker 8: we always do, and it's you know, sometimes when we

1772
01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:20,400
Speaker 8: have conversations up heare, I always talk about my kids.

1773
01:15:20,439 --> 01:15:22,479
Speaker 3: So when they see stuff on social media at.

1774
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:24,960
Speaker 8: Times I have to stop them because they will go in,

1775
01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:30,000
Speaker 8: especially Logan Logan, Oh yeah. We always love to uplift

1776
01:15:30,040 --> 01:15:31,880
Speaker 8: each other and point out the good in one another, right.

1777
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:34,080
Speaker 8: We see that more especially with our girls in dance

1778
01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:36,360
Speaker 8: because they compete against each other a lot. So when

1779
01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:38,280
Speaker 8: they do, we have to make sure that regardless of

1780
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:41,000
Speaker 8: what happens. Like a couple of weeks ago, London lost

1781
01:15:41,080 --> 01:15:43,360
Speaker 8: and we thought London got jerked. So I told you know,

1782
01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:45,640
Speaker 8: I had a conversation with Brooklyn and Brooklyn was like, Dad,

1783
01:15:45,640 --> 01:15:47,439
Speaker 8: don't worry, I'm gonna get first the second four. And

1784
01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:48,679
Speaker 8: she went out there and busted.

1785
01:15:48,439 --> 01:15:49,320
Speaker 7: Ask that first second.

1786
01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:52,000
Speaker 19: She got first place, and you know, gave the.

1787
01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:53,920
Speaker 8: First place to her sister because that's what it was.

1788
01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:56,560
Speaker 8: We represent each other at all times. That's how it

1789
01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:58,960
Speaker 8: always is. So we always tell our kids if we're

1790
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:01,280
Speaker 8: not there, you make sure that those parents come back

1791
01:16:01,320 --> 01:16:02,160
Speaker 8: and say, oh my gosh.

1792
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:04,439
Speaker 3: He was such a pleasure. He was polite, he was

1793
01:16:04,479 --> 01:16:05,960
Speaker 3: this even with Jackson at the game.

1794
01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:08,639
Speaker 8: You know, Jackson said thank you a million one time,

1795
01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:11,080
Speaker 8: so you said hello million one times, because that's what

1796
01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:11,920
Speaker 8: he's taught to do.

1797
01:16:12,040 --> 01:16:13,920
Speaker 3: That you show respect with that.

1798
01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:17,160
Speaker 1: My goal for my kids is that when they leave

1799
01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:20,240
Speaker 1: our house, I want everyone that they come in contact

1800
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:23,519
Speaker 1: with to know that they're well loved. What we teach

1801
01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:26,960
Speaker 1: you inside this house you exemplify outside of this house.

1802
01:16:27,479 --> 01:16:29,400
Speaker 1: And these are things that a lot of parents don't

1803
01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:31,960
Speaker 1: put into perspective when raising.

1804
01:16:31,760 --> 01:16:34,160
Speaker 19: Children because what do we usually do. We take, like,

1805
01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:35,679
Speaker 19: you know, an idea, and we throw it up against

1806
01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:37,439
Speaker 19: the wall. We see if it sticks or not. You

1807
01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:40,080
Speaker 19: know what I mean, Oh that worked, Oh that didn't, okay,

1808
01:16:40,439 --> 01:16:41,280
Speaker 19: But a lot of.

1809
01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:44,960
Speaker 1: People don't have something tangible that they can go back

1810
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:46,680
Speaker 1: to and be like, this is a way to create

1811
01:16:46,720 --> 01:16:49,759
Speaker 1: a foundation, this is a way to create a structure.

1812
01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:52,360
Speaker 1: And because we had so many ups and downs, we

1813
01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:55,320
Speaker 1: were able to do that and put it in one place.

1814
01:16:56,360 --> 01:16:57,599
Speaker 3: And I think the biggest story I now you hate

1815
01:16:57,600 --> 01:16:58,840
Speaker 3: want to tell a story was Jackson.

1816
01:16:58,920 --> 01:16:59,040
Speaker 5: Right.

1817
01:16:59,080 --> 01:17:00,960
Speaker 3: So, we had a parent teaching night a couple of

1818
01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 3: weeks ago and a teacher came up to me. Teacher,

1819
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:06,479
Speaker 3: I had no idea you know who he was night Right.

1820
01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:08,080
Speaker 3: So he walks up to me. He was like, are

1821
01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:10,120
Speaker 3: you Jackson's dad? And I'm like, yeah, what a teacher

1822
01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:11,960
Speaker 3: usually asked that usual bs right? So I'm like, oh,

1823
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:12,320
Speaker 3: here we go.

1824
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:13,040
Speaker 7: What did Jackson do?

1825
01:17:13,160 --> 01:17:14,320
Speaker 8: And he was like, I just want to tell you,

1826
01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:17,439
Speaker 8: you know, Jackson did something that no child or adult

1827
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:19,280
Speaker 8: has done in my life. The other day, I'm walking

1828
01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:20,799
Speaker 8: down the hall that Jackson comes running.

1829
01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:22,320
Speaker 3: Up to me and he goes, you know, are you okay?

1830
01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:23,680
Speaker 3: And the teacher was like, what do you mean? He

1831
01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:25,800
Speaker 3: was like, you just don't look as happy as usually do,

1832
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:27,320
Speaker 3: or you are right? Is anything bothering you?

1833
01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:29,000
Speaker 8: Would you like to have a conversation with me and

1834
01:17:29,080 --> 01:17:35,479
Speaker 8: just talking through like what he's like, Now you just

1835
01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:37,040
Speaker 8: don't seem as happy as you do, but don't let

1836
01:17:37,120 --> 01:17:39,960
Speaker 8: things stress you out. Just pray on it and tomorrow

1837
01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:41,559
Speaker 8: be better, right and if you need to talk to me.

1838
01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:42,040
Speaker 3: Come talk to me.

1839
01:17:42,120 --> 01:17:43,720
Speaker 8: And he said Jackson ran off and he was like,

1840
01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 8: I've never had an adult or a child ever do

1841
01:17:46,120 --> 01:17:47,439
Speaker 8: that to me. So he was like, whatever you're doing

1842
01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:49,519
Speaker 8: at home, continue that, and you know, I mean that

1843
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:51,920
Speaker 8: just shows what the kids are learning at home is

1844
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:52,479
Speaker 8: worth everyone.

1845
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:54,720
Speaker 7: So you need to report that teacher too. He don't

1846
01:17:54,720 --> 01:17:55,280
Speaker 7: need to be in the school.

1847
01:18:00,479 --> 01:18:01,200
Speaker 15: Was like, you got some time.

1848
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:17,479
Speaker 7: There's such a beautiful thank you, you know, have you?

1849
01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:19,519
Speaker 3: Thank you for pulling up and for everybody else. We

1850
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:20,479
Speaker 3: just want to add this last part.

1851
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:22,320
Speaker 8: We actually wrote it with somebody that helped us out

1852
01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:25,120
Speaker 8: with MS and helped us with different phrases and helped

1853
01:18:25,200 --> 01:18:26,920
Speaker 8: us with made sure that we were actually doing the

1854
01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 8: right thing when it came to raising our kids.

1855
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:33,040
Speaker 1: Yes, so we wrote it alongside a psychologist because yes,

1856
01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:37,559
Speaker 1: because we wanted to make sure that our outlooks were

1857
01:18:38,720 --> 01:18:41,080
Speaker 1: were on the level that I would.

1858
01:18:40,880 --> 01:18:42,639
Speaker 19: Want to put it out to the public.

1859
01:18:42,720 --> 01:18:48,160
Speaker 1: I wanted the psychological research and quarterbacking behind the way

1860
01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:50,760
Speaker 1: that we parent to pretty much put a stamp on

1861
01:18:50,840 --> 01:18:53,559
Speaker 1: it to know that what we're doing not just from

1862
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:56,800
Speaker 1: our personal experience driven point of view is sound, but

1863
01:18:56,880 --> 01:18:59,680
Speaker 1: from a psychological point of view is also sound. I

1864
01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:02,640
Speaker 1: wanted to make sure that alongside the truth and the

1865
01:19:02,720 --> 01:19:06,640
Speaker 1: transparency and the experience that we had that backing to

1866
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:09,000
Speaker 1: the book as well. I wanted that level of value

1867
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:12,080
Speaker 1: in the book as well. So and also, you know,

1868
01:19:12,160 --> 01:19:16,719
Speaker 1: if you have a child with anxiety, add ADHD, other setbacks,

1869
01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 1: other disabilities, you know, we speak to you in this

1870
01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:21,960
Speaker 1: book as well, because those people are very like they

1871
01:19:22,000 --> 01:19:23,480
Speaker 1: don't have that many resources.

1872
01:19:23,840 --> 01:19:26,120
Speaker 19: This book is for anyone who is a parent, a

1873
01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:27,880
Speaker 19: single parent, a parent.

1874
01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:31,080
Speaker 3: That is married, maybe about to have kids next time,

1875
01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:31,479
Speaker 3: someone that.

1876
01:19:31,680 --> 01:19:39,880
Speaker 19: Wants to have a child. Thank you, It's it's it's

1877
01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:40,320
Speaker 19: it's forever.

1878
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:42,680
Speaker 1: It's a very relatable book, and there's a lot of

1879
01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:44,960
Speaker 1: exercises in the book. We kind of also created it

1880
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:47,920
Speaker 1: in like a workbook style, so there's a lot of reflections.

1881
01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:49,519
Speaker 1: There's a lot of places in there for you to

1882
01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:52,720
Speaker 1: answer questions so you can kind of analyze yourself and

1883
01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:55,040
Speaker 1: understand your own point of view in a way of

1884
01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:57,760
Speaker 1: like articulation, where if you haven't really thought about certain things,

1885
01:19:58,040 --> 01:20:00,880
Speaker 1: it'll jog you to think about things. And even if

1886
01:20:00,920 --> 01:20:03,680
Speaker 1: you don't do, don't take our take, it encourages you

1887
01:20:03,760 --> 01:20:05,519
Speaker 1: and helps you to come up with your own takes

1888
01:20:05,560 --> 01:20:06,160
Speaker 1: on parenting.

1889
01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:11,760

1916
01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:28,479
Speaker 5: twenty six years to get up out of there. So

1917
01:21:28,840 --> 01:21:32,200
Speaker 5: I spent most of my life, more life in jail

1918
01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:33,160
Speaker 5: than I did on the street.

1919
01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:35,280

1922
01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:42,680
Speaker 21: seeing it, but you're not seeing it, but like you're

01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:44,439
Speaker 6: Like what was that?

1925
01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:48,120

1931
01:22:02,160 --> 01:22:05,639

1932
01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:09,160

1949
01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:51,439
Speaker 21: you're smiling, and it's just I can't imagine, like, you know,

01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:53,840
Speaker 21: just as a parent, it's like I want my child

1951
01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:55,800
Speaker 21: to be successful and it's happening, and then you're in

1952
01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:58,280
Speaker 21: a predicament that you're in and seeing it. It feels

1953
01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:00,600
Speaker 21: good to know that, like he's carrying the family and

1954
01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 21: things are working out, and then everything that we are,

1955
01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:05,920
Speaker 21: you know, seeing now happens. How did that feel when

1956
01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,040
Speaker 21: you hurt when the indictment come down and things of

1957
01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:08,599
Speaker 21: that nature.

1958
01:23:09,360 --> 01:23:11,840
Speaker 5: You know, from being in there and knowing what he

1959
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:15,840
Speaker 5: up against, now you run right there so I can

1960
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:18,680
Speaker 5: be with him to help him through this, because being

1961
01:23:18,720 --> 01:23:21,080
Speaker 5: an affairs ain't no small task, you know, this is

1962
01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:24,479
Speaker 5: a big thing. They don't they don't give no room.

1963
01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:26,840
Speaker 5: They just snatch you up with it almost and put

1964
01:23:26,880 --> 01:23:30,000
Speaker 5: you in a hopeless situation. You know, everybody goes in

1965
01:23:30,320 --> 01:23:32,240
Speaker 5: kind of got to fight their way out to show

1966
01:23:32,680 --> 01:23:35,439
Speaker 5: and prove that this is what it is. But you know,

1967
01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:38,599
Speaker 5: it hurts to know that he has to go through

1968
01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:40,680
Speaker 5: what I just went through. I have to deal with

1969
01:23:40,760 --> 01:23:43,320
Speaker 5: this system now. It hurts real bad, you know, first

1970
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 5: losing the oldest son and to the streets, and now

1971
01:23:47,120 --> 01:23:50,400
Speaker 5: losing him to the government. You know. So that's why

1972
01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:53,479
Speaker 5: I'm their hands on, lawyers, hands on with him, telling

1973
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:55,559
Speaker 5: him every step of what to do now and how

1974
01:23:55,640 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 5: to fight this.

1975
01:23:56,760 --> 01:23:59,759
Speaker 7: Being a person of faith, you know, you know allis

1976
01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:02,200
Speaker 7: the us knower and planning. But when you lose your son,

1977
01:24:02,760 --> 01:24:05,400
Speaker 7: you know, to to murder, and you lose the son

1978
01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:07,720
Speaker 7: to the to the jail system, how does that make

1979
01:24:07,760 --> 01:24:09,559
Speaker 7: you feel like just your faith? How did that test

1980
01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:09,880
Speaker 7: your faith?

1981
01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:12,920
Speaker 5: Oh? It's test your faith. Will test your faith in

1982
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:15,400
Speaker 5: a way that's you have to be a parent to

1983
01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:17,800
Speaker 5: understand what I'm saying here really tests you, you know.

1984
01:24:18,240 --> 01:24:21,000
Speaker 5: But just like you said that faith, you know, everything

1985
01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:23,880
Speaker 5: belongs to a law. They don't actually belong to me.

1986
01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:25,839
Speaker 5: He just used me as a vessel, but it belongs

1987
01:24:25,840 --> 01:24:28,120
Speaker 5: to him. So I just got to be patient for

1988
01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:30,680
Speaker 5: what's going on here and trusting him and continue to

1989
01:24:30,760 --> 01:24:33,320
Speaker 5: make it do out with your supplication that he brings

1990
01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:35,960
Speaker 5: about the victory that we are looking for in the situation,

1991
01:24:36,120 --> 01:24:37,280
Speaker 5: a relief that we're looking for.

1992
01:24:37,640 --> 01:24:40,360
Speaker 8: I also I wanted to ask about his case so

1993
01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:43,160
Speaker 8: much because the dirt that we knew that I knew

1994
01:24:43,200 --> 01:24:45,439
Speaker 8: personally he was such into giving back.

1995
01:24:45,560 --> 01:24:45,680
Speaker 7: Right.

1996
01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:47,880
Speaker 8: He would call all the time about the things that

1997
01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:49,960
Speaker 8: he wanted to do for Chicago, in the area that

1998
01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:52,560
Speaker 8: he grew up and the things that he wanted to

1999
01:24:52,720 --> 01:24:55,280
Speaker 8: change and how he wanted to give kids an opportunity

2000
01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:57,680
Speaker 8: that they would think more than the street and have

2001
01:24:57,920 --> 01:24:58,400
Speaker 8: things to do.

2002
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:00,320
Speaker 3: So what is allzation.

2003
01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:02,559
Speaker 8: Is his organization still out there being able to help

2004
01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:04,720
Speaker 8: or is a lot of those funds and things been

2005
01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:05,280
Speaker 8: pulled from that?

2006
01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:06,160
Speaker 6: Absolutely?

2007
01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:10,040
Speaker 23: Absolutely, And so this didn't just happened yesterday, you know,

2008
01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:13,280
Speaker 23: sitting down with Dirk Banks, you know, I remember the

2009
01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:15,600
Speaker 23: day when he was like, keV, you know, this is

2010
01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:17,599
Speaker 23: my vision. This is what I want to do. Because

2011
01:25:17,600 --> 01:25:19,479
Speaker 23: he was already doing the work. He's like, Okay, but

2012
01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:21,000
Speaker 23: let's let's do it for real, for real, And we

2013
01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:23,200
Speaker 23: say for real, for real, let's get a registered five

2014
01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:26,760
Speaker 23: oh one C three and let's really truly, you know,

2015
01:25:27,200 --> 01:25:29,360
Speaker 23: look at the impact that we can make. And one

2016
01:25:29,439 --> 01:25:32,000
Speaker 23: thing that we landed on is still to this day.

2017
01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:34,679
Speaker 23: It's like, Dirk, this is your vision. This is your vision,

2018
01:25:34,720 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 23: and it's going to be our jobs. When I say

2019
01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:39,360
Speaker 23: our jobs, my job, the board of directors and those

2020
01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:41,639
Speaker 23: that support, we're going to help bring it to life

2021
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,160
Speaker 23: and to be able to look back and see from

2022
01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:47,160
Speaker 23: twenty twenty and all the amazing work that he's done.

2023
01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:49,920
Speaker 23: And as you know in media, you know, a lot

2024
01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:52,479
Speaker 23: of folks don't want to talk about the great things

2025
01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:55,120
Speaker 23: and the positive things that individuals are out here doing.

2026
01:25:55,200 --> 01:25:56,280
Speaker 6: And he didn't do it for that.

2027
01:25:56,479 --> 01:25:58,120
Speaker 5: He did it for the fact that he know that.

2028
01:25:58,479 --> 01:26:01,000
Speaker 23: He said, keV, these are things that I wasn't able

2029
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:04,040
Speaker 23: to experience when I was a kid. So now that

2030
01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:06,880
Speaker 23: I'm in position to do it, I'm all in, let's go.

2031
01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:10,360
Speaker 23: I'm the voice. So I'm like, all right, So sitting

2032
01:26:10,439 --> 01:26:13,000
Speaker 23: with him, I mean all around the clock. When I

2033
01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:14,800
Speaker 23: say around the clock, I mean, as you know, he's

2034
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:16,719
Speaker 23: coming from the studio at three four in the morning.

2035
01:26:16,800 --> 01:26:18,880
Speaker 23: He's calling like, listen, this is what I want to do,

2036
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:22,240
Speaker 23: and I'm digesting and I'm saying, okay, from all the

2037
01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:25,519
Speaker 23: things that I'm hearing, all the things that I feel

2038
01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:29,320
Speaker 23: your passion. We created four foundation pillars based off the

2039
01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 23: things that Dirk Banks was truly invested in wanted to do,

2040
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:38,559
Speaker 23: and it started off with neighborhoods, prosperity, emerging leaders health

2041
01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:41,719
Speaker 23: and wellness. So with all those four different pillars, there's

2042
01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:45,360
Speaker 23: a bucket of work that lives within everyone. So everyone

2043
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:47,960
Speaker 23: can't be the next little dirt, but everyone can't be

2044
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,920
Speaker 23: that guy behind the production and this is exposing these

2045
01:26:51,960 --> 01:26:54,200
Speaker 23: young black boys and girls that Dirk has been doing for.

2046
01:26:54,280 --> 01:26:55,080
Speaker 3: A long time.

2047
01:26:55,560 --> 01:26:57,120
Speaker 21: I was going to ask y'all the last thing that

2048
01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:00,200
Speaker 21: he did before he was taking into custody. It was

2049
01:27:00,240 --> 01:27:01,960
Speaker 21: the big prayer event that he had and then he

2050
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:05,080
Speaker 21: received the keys to the city. But the mayor, I

2051
01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:07,320
Speaker 21: believe it was the mayor got a lot of backlash

2052
01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:08,960
Speaker 21: after he was arrested, and I think, you know, there

2053
01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:10,680
Speaker 21: were certain people and things that like step back. So

2054
01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:14,439
Speaker 21: how hard has it been because the organization is tied

2055
01:27:14,439 --> 01:27:17,439
Speaker 21: to Dirk, Like, are y'all facing opposition or people still like, no,

2056
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:18,679
Speaker 21: we know he's a good person.

2057
01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 23: You're going to face the opposition just being a young

2058
01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:25,920
Speaker 23: black artist, a young black man, a young black woman.

2059
01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:30,160
Speaker 23: There's always gonna be trials and tribulations. And if we

2060
01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:33,720
Speaker 23: allow one situation like that to stop us what we're doing,

2061
01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:36,680
Speaker 23: and we're losing the focus of what his true mission was.

2062
01:27:37,040 --> 01:27:39,479
Speaker 8: Yes, all right, we have more with Dante Banks and

2063
01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:41,280
Speaker 8: Kevin Freeman when we come back.

2064
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:42,799

2086
01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:45,840
Speaker 5: person he is when no one is trying to, you know,

2087
01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:50,519
Speaker 5: look at his downfall to something that we can now say, Hey,

01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:52,960
Speaker 5: look at him, we told about not this type of

2089

2096
01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:10,080
Speaker 5: You know how you supposed to view him? Don't take

2097
01:29:10,120 --> 01:29:13,880
Speaker 5: allegations and make him a fact. Don't take allegations and

2098
01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:16,880
Speaker 5: make it a conviction. You know, allegations are just that,

2099
01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:19,680
Speaker 5: these are allegations. Give us a chance in court to

2100
01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:22,360
Speaker 5: prove ourselves. Give us a chance, you know. And this

2101
01:29:22,520 --> 01:29:25,400
Speaker 5: one thing again, we shout out the mayor of Chicago,

2102
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:28,720
Speaker 5: Brandon Johnson, when they try to attack him, he said,

2103
01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:30,479
Speaker 5: don't give the brother his.

2104
01:29:32,479 --> 01:29:32,839
Speaker 7: Process.

2105
01:29:33,000 --> 01:29:34,760
Speaker 5: You said, give him his chance in court. And it's

2106
01:29:34,760 --> 01:29:36,840
Speaker 5: what we actually about, give our chance in court. And

2107
01:29:36,960 --> 01:29:40,599
Speaker 5: we approved that all of this there's nothing but falsehood

2108
01:29:40,640 --> 01:29:41,000
Speaker 5: and alive.

2109
01:29:41,560 --> 01:29:44,000
Speaker 21: You know, wait, when you talk about going places and

2110
01:29:44,160 --> 01:29:47,120
Speaker 21: wanting the conversation to be just fair for him, even

2111
01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:49,479
Speaker 21: if people are gonna have their opinions, how hard is

2112
01:29:49,520 --> 01:29:52,519
Speaker 21: it for you? And you can answer this if you

2113
01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:55,080
Speaker 21: want to. I know, it's a legal situation. So for instance,

2114
01:29:55,240 --> 01:29:57,360
Speaker 21: like I know, I've seen reports of like there were

2115
01:29:57,439 --> 01:30:00,920
Speaker 21: like text messages that allegedly were like between Dirk and

2116
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:06,120
Speaker 21: the guys who are who they threw the murder charges

2117
01:30:06,160 --> 01:30:09,360
Speaker 21: at for the thing? And then they have the verse

2118
01:30:09,439 --> 01:30:12,000
Speaker 21: from his song aha, and they're trying to pin that like, yo,

2119
01:30:12,080 --> 01:30:14,280
Speaker 21: this is you saying what you did? How hard is

2120
01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:16,160
Speaker 21: it to go up against stuff like that? Just because

2121
01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:18,639
Speaker 21: legally they're talking about that every single time he goes

2122
01:30:18,640 --> 01:30:19,000
Speaker 21: in the court.

2123
01:30:20,240 --> 01:30:22,720
Speaker 5: It's not hard if you get all the information, but

2124
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:25,400
Speaker 5: I will refer I have to refer all these things

2125
01:30:25,479 --> 01:30:27,600
Speaker 5: to the legal team because you know, this is some

2126
01:30:27,680 --> 01:30:29,640
Speaker 5: of the things that they would have to answer and

2127
01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:33,400
Speaker 5: give a little people understanding. He got three great lawyers

2128
01:30:33,479 --> 01:30:36,719
Speaker 5: on the case, you know, so they working around the clock.

2129
01:30:36,800 --> 01:30:39,200
Speaker 5: They constantly keep us updated. You know, I talk to

2130
01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:43,800
Speaker 5: them regularly about the case, and so it's going good.

2131
01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:47,040
Speaker 5: You know, all these text messages, these these things. Here

2132
01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:49,439
Speaker 5: they on top of all this, and like I said,

2133
01:30:49,439 --> 01:30:51,600
Speaker 5: give them his day in court and they approved. You know,

2134
01:30:52,479 --> 01:30:56,400
Speaker 5: what's what? What's the real truth? About these text messages, right,

2135
01:30:56,600 --> 01:31:01,320
Speaker 5: how confident as a Muslim, I'm confidence a law that's

2136
01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:03,760
Speaker 5: a muscling and I just continue to make do uh

2137
01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:07,519

Speaker 5: we are seeking out of us. So looking at everything,

2140
01:31:13,160 --> 01:31:17,360
Speaker 5: it's weak, but we make sure continue to a lot.

2141
01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:19,200
Speaker 8: What about with the with the government, because you know,

2142
01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:21,800
Speaker 8: the government, as we've seen what many cases before, if

2143
01:31:21,800 --> 01:31:24,559
Speaker 8: they play a nasty game where they try to make

2144
01:31:24,800 --> 01:31:28,519
Speaker 8: somebody look crazy so that the jury looks at them

2145
01:31:28,520 --> 01:31:29,240
Speaker 8: as crazy.

2146
01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:30,280
Speaker 3: From the start, you know, I mean we see that

2147
01:31:30,360 --> 01:31:31,879
