00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: The devil wants you to think that this applies to

47
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: other people. But you, Yeah, you've been dealt the worse

48
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:02,440

00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: Why just wake up and just let it be? Why

54
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: would you wake up every day and just exist when

55
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: there's a chance for you to actually live. See the

56
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: reason I don't mind smiling so much now is because

57
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: I'm no longer existing. I'm living now. See. See, that's

58
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,320
Speaker 1: where you want to get to. You don't want to exist,

59
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: to wake up, paycheck to paycheck, date today, not knowing,

60
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: not understanding, not having, can't can't get this, can't get that,

61
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: can't go here, can't go there, Gotta wait, gotta wait,

62
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 1: gota wait, gota wait till it seems like you never

63
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 1: get nowhere, you can get out of that rut of life,

64
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: feeling like when you wake up in the morning that

65
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 1: your life is whole hum that you're just in a rut.

66
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: I drive the same way to work. I do the

67
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 1: same thing on my job. When I get off, I

68
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: drive all the way back home. I sit there, I

69
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: read the newspaper. I water the lawn. I'm so sick

70
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 1: of my life. It ain't this, ain't what I wanted. Man,

71
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,280
Speaker 1: and start, wake up, start over, do the same thing.

72
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,119
Speaker 1: Then the weekend gets in. You got to mow the lawn,

73
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,600
Speaker 1: and then you try to fix something in the garage,

74
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: and you feel like your life is in the rut.

75
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: I'm talking about. If this feels like a rut to

76
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: you know, if it's what you've always wanted, I'm cool

77
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 1: with that. But I'm talking to people who want it more,

78
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: who would love their life to be more, who would

79
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: love their life to different, to be different. I'm not

80
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: criticizing you if I just described your life. I'm just

81
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: only talking to the ones who would dare to believe

82
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,719
Speaker 1: that there's more to it than this. I'm only talking

83
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: to the ones who would dad dad to accept the challenge,

84
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 1: to fight through and see what God got for you

85
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: instead of listening to Satan all the time. Devil is busy, man,

86
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: Please understand, he's so busy, so busy, and to trick you,

87
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 1: get you into the groove. You know they're doing all

88
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 1: kinds of stuff now man, you know atheists and already

89
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: got prayer. Taking out of schools. Excuse me, look at

90
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: our skills schools, not as a push by the atheist

91
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: to get the words in God we trust, taking off

92
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: our money. Here's a deal. If you don't believe in

93
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 1: God and you don't want trust in God, just going

94
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: about your business. But what you can't do is spill

95
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: off all into what I'm talking about. That's the problem

96
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: I have with all of them. If you're gonna do you,

97
00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: didn't do you, but don't spill off into what I got. Now. See,

98
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: if you don't believe what I'm saying, then I ain't

99
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: talking to you. Let's just be clear about the relationship

100
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: with Steve Harvey and his crew. I'm only talking to

101
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: the people that believe that are looking for something else,

102
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: that wants something more, that wants something better, that's got

103
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: to be out there searching and hoping and trying to

104
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 1: do more. That's all I'm talking to now. If you

105
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: don't believe what I'm saying it's true, didn't go ahead

106
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: and try it your way, go see write me, email me,

107
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,400
Speaker 1: let me know how it's going for you. But telling

108
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: you of a way that's tried and true. If you

109
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: go to God, if you go to your creator, your makeup,

110
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: if you go to him and you go to him

111
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: for real and tell him, hey, you know what I

112
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: want you to go ahead and take over from here.

113
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: I'm done. I haven't done all I know how to

114
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:21,760
Speaker 1: do out and tried everything I know how to try.

115
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: I'm sick of me right now. Hey, look here, you

116
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: created me what you want me to do, and here

117
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 1: a cool thing about it. When I made that decision,

118
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 1: y'all see, I was so afraid for years that I

119
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:33,959
Speaker 1: was gonna miss out on something if I did that.

120
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,199
Speaker 1: I couldn't do this no more. But the stuff I

121
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 1: needed to stop doing. I really need to stop the

122
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 1: things I was afraid of not being able to do

123
00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 1: anymore with the very same things I really didn't need

124
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: to be doing no more in the first place, on

125
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 1: the real man, on the real all that temporary fun

126
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: I was having all them temporary outlets I was using

127
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: all them temporary things trying to fulfill myself I was doing.

128
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 1: I was just doing a bunch of temporary mess man.

129
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: I said, hold up, man, I want something permanent. Man,

130
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 1: I want a permanent feeling in my heart that it's

131
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 1: gonna be all right. So he replaced all that fun

132
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: with joy. But it's only because I went and I

133
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: faced him. He didn't take me and stop me from

134
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: being me. He just made a better version of me. See, God,

135
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: don't take he because all the stuff he sent you through,

136
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: he needed you to go through all him. He needed

137
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 1: you to have him experience or what it felt like

138
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 1: to be locked up. He needed you to have experience

139
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: and know what it was to lose everything. He needed

140
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 1: you to have experience to make you tough. You're just

141
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 1: gonna be a tough one. I'm a tough soldier in

142
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: his army. That's all I just say. One of the

143
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: weak ones. I protect the weak ones. God didn't take

144
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff from except the stuff I needed.

145
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 1: But the stuff he made me to be, he allowed

146
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,199
Speaker 1: me to keep it, and he just made a better me.

147
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: Do that, y'all, and you can have what you want.

148
00:09:57,080 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: You're listening, hey, listen. Everybody's your man, Steve Harvey, and

Speaker 1: not dating anyone else, but she hangs out with mostly men.

222
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: There are three guys in particular that are always at

223
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: her house. I've been around them, and they like to

224
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: say that my girlfriend is like one of the boys.

225
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 1: I'm old school. So I told her that I don't

226
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: like it. I need to be the only man in

227
00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: her house. She's needs nothing wrong with it. So I'm

228
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: thinking about having some of my female friends from church

229
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: come by my house while she's there. Do you think

230
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 1: that will get her attention? No, that's gonna get everybody

231
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: aske Sorry it was I'm not to say that everybody interview.

234
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: messing with, but them girls over there life am my wrong, lady,

235
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:18,600
Speaker 1: Because first of all, he needs to listen to backstabb

236
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: was by the Oja's listen to the lyrics he breaks

237
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: the dad. All you fellas that have someone that you

238
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: really care that, it's all of you fellas who better

239
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 1: be well. But I'm also a woman who hangs out

240
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: with a lot of men. I work with a lot

241
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: of men. I am even friends with women who have

242
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,440
Speaker 1: that duality, a male side of their personality. So so

243
00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 1: I know a type of personality dynamic I'm with. I

244
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: would say this if he has not sat down and

245
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 1: spoken to her about his concerns. That's what you have

246
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: to do as a man. Don't put your foot down,

247
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 1: because soon as you put your foot down, I'm like,

248
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: who you talking to? I'm cooking my birth certificates. Show

249
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: you your name is not on my birth as your daddy. Right,

250
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: I know who my daddy is and it's not you.

251
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: But I could see how men feel that, all of

252
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: these men and they're at your house. That's the part

253
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: that would bother me. Yeah, if they are they dating?

254
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: Are they married? Clarify that from me? What I'm more

255
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: time he's dating, he's dating, they're dating, but they're pursuing

256
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,520
Speaker 1: to marriage. Well, he didn't say that, but it may

257
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: because he feels the way he feels. It may yeah,

258
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: it may have that in that direction. But right now

259
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: he's calling her his girlfriend and they're dating. Well, if

260
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:37,720
Speaker 1: he has not made his issue to me that that

261
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,200
Speaker 1: is an issue. But first of all, I pay the

262
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: mortgage my name. I can't buy anybody I want to

263
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: up here. You know you ain't paying mortgage. Right. But

264
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: but if if my man had a concern and he

265
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 1: came to me with manhood and perseverance the right way,

266
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: did I say, Right, Monica, if he comes to me

267
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: with that manhood and yeah and talk to me and say, baby,

268
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: I know these are your friends, but your friends are

269
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: always here. And a man has instincts as well. Am

270
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 1: I wrong? Callipharel? Men have instincts as well, and they

271
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: can see what's happening. Yes, human beings are instincts. Yeah,

272
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,360
Speaker 1: I got a men and women. I got a good

273
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 1: story to tell you off the air because I don't

274
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,239
Speaker 1: have enough time. And this is a real story. When

275
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 1: I first got married and I made a plate for

276
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: another man because I don't oh yet, Oh yes, what

280
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: In my family, um, I don't eat before a man eat,

281
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 1: and men don't fix their own plate. So I sold

282
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: in if there were men who were guested in the house,

283
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 1: and I fixed the plate and I sat the plate down,

284
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,240

Speaker 1: happy family. How can I get them to squash it? Well?

304
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: First of all, where do this brother live, because there

305
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 1: might be some jealousy that you are getting your other

306
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: brothers living Rentfrey and my close callar for real. But

307
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 1: also the husband. Now, if if their mother has allowed

308
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: him to become head of the household, then you have

309
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 1: to respect their wishes. But they should have come to

310
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 1: this to gather. You don't separate me from my children

311
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: because I married you, I gave birth to them. You know,

312
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 1: there's a different situation. But if my sons, if if

313
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: I had something, my sons would be living in the

314
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:46,520
Speaker 1: house because as soon as you pop, Funky still be

315
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: there at thirty one, mowing the lawn, doing everything. Because

316
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: in case my new husband pop off, who my son's

317
00:19:55,600 --> 00:20:01,119
Speaker 1: going to come out? Back room? This negro is not

318
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 1: your daddy. Handle, it is not your daddy. Did you

319
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 1: say he corrected me? Yeah? Do you say how he

320
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 1: corrected me? To get back with your father, whoever he is,

321
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,879
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to get back with your father. Well

322
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 1: he is whoever he is. If I kept figuring out

323
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: out the whole nanny was jumping that night, it was

00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,439
Speaker 1: I really want to talk about even though we were

363
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: joking with things that are going on where women are

364
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:07,400
Speaker 1: being approached or sometimes even manipulated in certain things. I'm

365
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: gonna tell you'all, let's start tell you let's start in

366
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 1: my meaning. I wouldn't even say sexual harassment. I think

367
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,160
Speaker 1: that the men, the men, you know, we had things

368
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: in a comedy game where you know, how you gonna

369
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: go on tour, especially as a female comic, you know,

370
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:23,800
Speaker 1: and they don't do a lot of female tours and

371
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 1: things like that. It wasn't really happening like that, so

372
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,959
Speaker 1: you would get approached by dudes that were like, hey

373
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: you hillight me I could change your life or you're

374
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,639
Speaker 1: gonna get it. You know, your career gonna bump up.

375
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: So and I tell this story so a very naive.

376
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,680
Speaker 1: So and if I'm not wearing my glasses, I don't

377
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: know who I'm talking to. So, so this guy start

378
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: talking to me after I did a set right, it

379
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: did my show, and he was like, so, what are

380
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:49,119
Speaker 1: you doing after this? Like something golden bar? Like? I

381
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: always hang up right, And so he said, well, why

382
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 1: don't we get together? I said, to do what? And

383
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: he was like, you know, to do some things. I said,

384
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 1: oh oh. And he seems like if you get with me,

385
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: uh I can I can advance your career? I said, well,

386
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 1: first of all, if I get with you, why am

387
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: I still working? Yeah? Oh right, why am I still

388
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: waiting to all that? If you all that? And why

389
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: am I still working? And I don't think men like

390
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,520
Speaker 1: to be approached by a woman that flips the game

391
00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: on him. That's how we U say back in the day.

392
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 1: So I didn't. I was just saying I And I

393
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: said to the man, I said who are you? And

394
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,240
Speaker 1: he said who he was? I knew the name from

395
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 1: very much successful, but I couldn't connect the face with

396
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: the person you him, and so it was so unfamous,

397
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,160
Speaker 1: like somebody really really big and powerful. But I knew

398
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,399
Speaker 1: the name, but I couldn't connect it with the person.

399
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,239
Speaker 1: So I said, which he would, You know, Monica, if

400
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: somebody come toward me, then I'm like, wow, I'm fascinated

401
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,360
Speaker 1: by that. But I'm all about my money and all

402
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,880
Speaker 1: about my grind, and I'm all about how I get.

403
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,240
Speaker 1: I'm a boss on a loan on myself. So I

404
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 1: said to the man, why don't you wait until we're equals,

405
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: then we truly make love? And he didn't like it.

406
00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: He walked away. Yeah he didn't. Yeah right, he showed

407
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 1: me as I'm supposed to be the wildflower to this,

408
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 1: to that. And I'm saying all of this to say,

409
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,360
Speaker 1: of everything that I've done, I always try to get

410
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: me a fairy godfather and a fairy godmother. But then

411
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 1: I also tried to say, what does God really want

412
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,240
Speaker 1: me to be do? Because sometimes I stumble, you know,

413
00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: you send a DeBarge toward me. I'm going to stumble,

414
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 1: Oh no, but you send el DeBarge toward me. I'm

415
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,160
Speaker 1: going to stumble, it's just well, I mean, we all

416
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: but my business, right, that's my weakness if you are

417
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 1: an El DeBarge type. But for my business business, yes,

418
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 1: for my business business. I'm kind of different in my

419
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 1: business and a lot of men and women can't take that.

420
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 1: And we have to be careful of our stridency and

421
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 1: our power that someone must not understand. And I'm saying this,

422
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: I'm throwing it out to you ladies too. It ain't

423
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: just men that a challenge you and try you. Sometimes

424
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: it's the woman that don't understand you was meant to

425
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: be this boss here and I'm here to help you.

426
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 1: Am I right? Carl Prell, speak on it. You better

427
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,719
Speaker 1: absolutely speak on the girl. I think two as women.

428
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: I think you know, for me, watching our generations in

429
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: the past, our mother, our grandmother, we watched them do

430
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 1: it all, do you know what I'm saying. That's how

431
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: you know? And our ancestors. So I think that for me,

432
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: the pressure of there was no pressure from them, but

433
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: I put the pressure on myself to not be a

434
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: disappointment too. I had to. I had to succeed. You know.

435
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 1: I watched my grandmother work two jobs. She was a nurse.

436
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: She would come in. I would wash her uniforms for

437
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: her and hang them up to dry and iron them,

438
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,800
Speaker 1: and I would polish her shoes, and Shirley knows to

439
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: this day, I will not wear white shoes because I

440
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,080
Speaker 1: had to polish her shoes because she was a nurse

441
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 1: and watching my mother. So for me, that was my drive.

442
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,639
Speaker 1: That was my push for me to be successful. And

443
00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: now that I am a mother, you know, now that

444
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 1: I'm a mother, exactly, I want to lead by example

445
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: and want her to follow her dreams. You know, when

446
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: I was a little growing up quickly, and I'll let

447
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 1: you know, Monica jump in as well. Growing up listening

448
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 1: to radio, that was my thing. I listened to radio

449
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: all the time I was a little girl in Chicago

450
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 1: listening to radio. That's all I wanted to Yes, And

451
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: my mother would take me to the record stores on

452
00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: the North side, you know, and buy records and on

453
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: the South side and you know, all of these things

454

00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: working in radio. Always knew that I would do this. Yeah,

456
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: So this success is it's here for me, you know,

457
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 1: whatever level it is in my job. But I'm doing

458
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: what I love. For ahead, but go ahead, go ahead.

459
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,320

Speaker 1: this is your chance. Monica. We don't hear from you

461
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 1: that much. And you didn't start off wanting to be

462
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: in radio. You know that wasn't good for you. Yeah. Absolutely,

463
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: I mean it was just I met Shirley Strawberry. I

464
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: was friends with the exactly with the producer at the time,

465
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 1: and God took over the rest. So basically starting out,

466
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 1: and I'm from Mississippi and my grandmother had twelve children.

467
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,680
Speaker 1: My mother is the oldest of twelve, so I have

468
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 1: eight aunts and four uncles, and I just always watched

469
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: my aunts and uncle's excel and basically my aunts were bad.

470
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 1: They were bosses from the beginning. My grandmother had twelve children.

471
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 1: She never worked, She took care of the home. She

472
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: made homemade biscuits because if you think back, my mom's eighty,

473
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: so she was making homemade biscuits every day. And just

474
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 1: the work ethic she instilled in her girls and watching

475
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: my mother, who stayed at a job for twenty nine

476
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,719
Speaker 1: years and eventual and became directive placements for the Department

477
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 1: of Human Services. She never wavered, She never took a

478
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: day off. She stayed with it. And I just saw

479
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 1: that tenacity she had and she instilled in me. You

480
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,520

00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: to schedule to begin in Minnesota today for the George

544
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: Floyd murder case. Xcop Derek Chauvin currently only faced his

545
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: second degree murder and man's laughter charge. Is what A

546
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 1: Minnesota appeals court ruled Friday that a third degree murder

547
00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 1: charge against Chauvin should not have been dropped by a

548
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: lower chord. We're gonna have to see what happens there

549
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: or Chauvin appeals. The actual trial could be postponed, So

550
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 1: just kind of reserve on that. But all that aside.

551
00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: George Floyd's brother, felonas from minds is of the horrific

552
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: devastations still suffered by the Floyd family. Boyd was coming

553
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: from his nose and the officers still sat there on

554
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: his neck like he was okay. It's never okay that

555
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 1: hurt somebody like that. We shouldn't have to go to

556
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: court for anything like this. We shouldn't have to. Meanwhile,

557
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 1: Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi says, the House has passed a police

558
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,920
Speaker 1: reform bill named after mister Floyd. We're proud of this legislation.

559
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 1: It will not erase centuries of systemic racism and excessive policing,

560
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 1: and it will not bring back George Floyd, but it

561
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 1: will take a tremendous step forward and by banning by

562
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 1: various forms of chokeholes and federal no knock drug warrants

563
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 1: and banned that stuff that was involved in Brianna Taylor's murder,

564
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 1: and reducing the immunity that cops currently get when involved

565
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: in civilian deaths. On the Hill, the US Senate has

566
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: passed the Democrats overall close to two trillion dollars coronavirus

567
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,520
Speaker 1: relief bill, even though the fifteen dollar minimum wage part

568
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 1: of had to be removed in order to get the

569
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 1: rest of it okay, the Republicans said had to be

570
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,879
Speaker 1: in a different budget bill. That measure now going back

571
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 1: to the House of Representatives for final approval before going

572
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: on to the President for his expected signature. Previously, by

573
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: the way, the Senate voted against the fifteen dollars an

574
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 1: hour hike fifty eight to forty two. It's eight Democrats

575
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: joining the GOP opposition. However, there is word that most

576
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,799
Speaker 1: Senators might go along with a lower federal wage hike,

577
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 1: but on a separate bill. President Biden signed an executive

578
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 1: order yesterday aimed at leveraging federal resources to expand access

579
00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 1: to voting. Yesterday was the fifty sixth anniversary of Bloody Sunday.

580
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: That's when six hundred peaceful protesters marched across the Edmund

581
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: Pet Bridge and saw Alabama of four voting rights, but

582
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: were attacked by violent white state troopers. Finally, poet turned

583
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,760
Speaker 1: international sensation Amanda Gorman says some white security guard fired

584
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:57,880
Speaker 1: her home, followed her home the other night, demanding to

585
00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: know if she lived in her neighborhood and claiming she

586
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 1: looked suspicious. A man who says, once this guy saw

587
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,040
Speaker 1: her buzz herself into her building, he walked away with

588
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:09,200
Speaker 1: no apology. Old folks say that's evil. Twenty two year

589
00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:11,399
Speaker 1: old Polder says, this is the reality of black girls.

590
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 1: One day you're a nicon, the next day a threat.

Speaker 1: I said, I'd like for you to give me some

606
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:11,759
Speaker 1: diction classes because I'm getting more and more responsibility, and

607
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: I just want when we're talking about women and especially

608
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 1: women in radio, all of us are here because God

609
00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: put us here and we wanted to be here. But

610
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 1: we definitely want to be here with you, Shirley Straberry.

611
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 1: It's not written anywhere. I just want to give you

612
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,880
Speaker 1: some love when you talk about women in radio, Cheryl,

613
00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 1: thank you. I appreciate that so much. You know, I

614
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 1: love you love you, love you, love you. And talking

615
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 1: about Chicago radio, I mean that's where I guess we all,

616
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 1: you know, developed a love for radio, because that's certainly

617
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 1: where I learned it. And you mentioned the iconic Yvonne Daniels.

618
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:50,200
Speaker 1: Everyone who grew up in Chicago knew about Vone Daniels.

619
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 1: I had never heard anything like this in my life

620
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 1: when I heard that woman's voice on the radio. Now

621
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: I found nothing like her. I did have the pleasure

622
00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:03,840
Speaker 1: of working with her, became friendly and uh chummy and

623
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 1: just you know, I admired her so much. She was

624
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 1: like one of my radio mentors, along with Chili Childs

625
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 1: and Wanda Wells. People in Chicago I know who I'm

626
00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:14,919
Speaker 1: talking about. Of course, my girl Bonnie Deshung. We worked

627
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 1: together for many years. I don't know. Radio just did

628
00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 1: it for me, and mainly because I loved music so much.

629
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,439
Speaker 1: I think Carlin and I talked about this recently, because

630
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,520
Speaker 1: we had such a great love for music. I couldn't

631
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: sing anything like Vindia. I finally admit it that I

632
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:33,040
Speaker 1: can't sing. I didn't play an instrument. I took trumpet time.

633
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,000
Speaker 1: I can't. So what was the what was the other thing?

634
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:40,840
Speaker 1: What was the other thing that I could do. I

635
00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 1: could get into radio and play these artists that I loved.

636
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: That's what made me get into radio. And I used

637
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,239
Speaker 1: to practice all the time when I had the opportunity

638
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,520
Speaker 1: to talk to them about radio. And it's not so

639
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:54,919
Speaker 1: much about that now, diction and all of that now,

640
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 1: but back then it was I would practice, practice, practice.

641
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 1: My mom bought me one of those tape recorders, and

642
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: you know, I would read in front of the mirror.

643
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 1: That's what I would do. I would read the newspaper

644
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 1: or magazine. I would read every day, and I would

645
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 1: listen to my voice and perfect my voice. And I

646
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: took speech elocution classes and theaters, all those kinds of

647
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 1: things that you need to get into this. But anyway,

648
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 1: I just wanted to say that, and thanks to Cheryl. Well,

649
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:25,760
Speaker 1: that's your superpower. That has superpower. Shout out to Sibyl

Speaker 1: thirty four minutes after the hour, guys, we're gonna talk

652
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: about We're gonna talk about politics and civil rights as

653
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 1: far as women are concerned. Right after this, you're listening

654
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: to the Stay Show, all right, So today on International

655
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: Women's Day. We want to celebrate women's achievement. We want

656
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:53,680
Speaker 1: to talk about progress made by empowering women. Vice President

657
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, First Lady Michelle Obama, Democratic Leader Stacy Abraham's

658
00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,560
Speaker 1: another one of our favorites, Temka Mallory. The list goes

659
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,000
Speaker 1: on and on. So, Cheryl, we gotta ask you, how

660
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:09,239
Speaker 1: do we as black women remind our sisters to use

661
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 1: their voice and power for change as we continue to

662
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,840
Speaker 1: demand that our black women leaders always have a seat

663
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: at the table. Well, one of the things that I

664
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: appreciate about what the young people have is they have

665
00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 1: social media as that immediate connection to people. We you know,

666
00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 1: we had church, we had fax machines, we had phones,

667
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: but they have an immediate connection with Facebook and Instagram

668
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,760
Speaker 1: and social media. And the other thing is we, Monica

669
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 1: and I are members of Black Greek letter sororities. Monica,

670
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: you are a Delta You remember of Delta Segment Data.

671
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 1: I remember Zata fab To Sorority Incorporated. And to have

672
00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris as a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority

673
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 1: be the Vice President of the United States, the president

674
00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,400
Speaker 1: of the Senate, I think also we need to look

675
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:06,680
Speaker 1: at our community service organizations and our church organizations. And

676
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:10,440
Speaker 1: I have to say this, when you're talking about fighting

677
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:14,320
Speaker 1: against police brutality, what these young women are doing nowadays,

678
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 1: it's on the backs of what Shirley Chisholm was doing

679
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: and what those sisters who were members of the Black

680
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 1: Panther Party were doing. And people just couldn't understand what

681
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,759
Speaker 1: was going on. And you make it seem like it

682
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:30,600
Speaker 1: was only men marching in the fifties and sixties. It

683
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: was only men, but there were there were women who

684
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: were the founders and the organizers of the Niagara Movement

685
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: that be got the NAACP. And I will say this,

686
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw it to y'all on this one. I

687
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: bet a lot of people wish they would have made

688
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 1: stays to abrahams, the governor of Georgia. But you made

689
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 1: a mistake. You made a mistake, You made a mistake,

690
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: and you empowered her to save a democracy. Absolutely, and

691
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:01,839
Speaker 1: now we have Kamala Harris as Vice president. That it's

692
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: take it. I'm that's still sinking in for me that

693
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: we actually have a black woman as vice president of

694
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 1: these United States. I mean, you know, I didn't think

695
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,880
Speaker 1: it would be this soon. But I'm so happy it is.

696
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 1: I didn't think we would have a black woman as

697
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 1: the Vice President of the United States before a white woman. Oh,

698
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:28,919
Speaker 1: absolutely vice president of the United States. So yeah, you're

699
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:33,320
Speaker 1: you're absolutely right, yea with what you're saying. And Sheryl,

700
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 1: I just Stacy Abrams the queen that she call her

701
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:42,800
Speaker 1: beause she is the queen. All hail to the Queen. Yes, right, Monica.

702
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,920
Speaker 1: But the movement, that movement, we need that what she

703
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 1: did in Georgia recently, what happened with the winter storm,

704
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:54,280
Speaker 1: and what's going on with the governor with the mask mandate,

705
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 1: and we know that he said that as a way

706
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 1: to deflect, you know, from the catastrophe of his leading ship.

707
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:05,759
Speaker 1: A nobody crazy, anybody, Well, you know what, you know what,

708
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,800
Speaker 1: You're so right, You're so right. And not only that,

709
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:13,320
Speaker 1: not only is she brilliant, not only is Stacy Abrams brilliant.

710
00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 1: And you're right, Cheryl, I do believe that the people

711
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: in Georgia uh missed when they didn't make her governor.

712
00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,719
Speaker 1: But God had a plan. God had a plan, and

713
00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,359
Speaker 1: she's still alive, and you don't know, she may come

714
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 1: back around and be governor or president. We don't know,

715
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 1: but I have to Yeah, but I have to say

716

723
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: the world, I said, the worser. And she was so

724
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 1: kind and for you know, just humbled me to see

725
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:07,120

730

731
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 1: I just thought that was so great. I didn't tell

Speaker 1: I could do I do, okay, But what I really hate,

758
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: and everyone on the show knows this is I hate

759
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:01,719
Speaker 1: the cooking part. I'm sorry, I do. I don't like

760
00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 1: some people cooking relaxes them and they like it and

761
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 1: they have to cook for their family and all of that.

762
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 1: It does not interest me in the least. Now do

763
00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:15,440
Speaker 1: I have guilt about that? Yes, I do, because of

764
00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,279
Speaker 1: the way, as we talked earlier, of how we were born,

765
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,120
Speaker 1: how we were raised. You know, we're raised to cook

766
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 1: for the man's fixes plate all that. Now, if somebody

767
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:28,760
Speaker 1: else cooks, I will fix the plate, so that counts.

768
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:33,640
Speaker 1: So that counts. Does that count? You know? I might,

769
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: You know, I don't. And he doesn't seem to mind

770
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: so far, it's been six years. He hasn't left me yet.

771
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,959
Speaker 1: He doesn't seem to mind that I don't cook. But really,

772
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,439
Speaker 1: I have to be honest. I don't like to cook.

773
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 1: I can cook, I don't like it. It's not one

774
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 1: of my favorite things to do. And as far as

775
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,279
Speaker 1: balancing it, that's the main thing that kind of gets me,

776
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:58,080
Speaker 1: you know away, yeah, some kind of way. Yeah, what

777
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: about you? And then I'm a mom too of a

778
00:47:00,640 --> 00:47:03,800
Speaker 1: twenty four year old. And I haven't said this before.

779
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 1: Let me get this out. I'm also a grandmother of two.

780
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: I've never said that before. I've never said that before.

781
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:14,279
Speaker 1: I have a little granddaughter, Jade who's five, and a grandson,

782
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,240
Speaker 1: Max who's three. They are the love of my life.

783
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,279
Speaker 1: I love these kids. Um, well, we'll talk more about that.

784
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,319
Speaker 1: But yeah, I am a grandmother. Now, But how did

785
00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,439
Speaker 1: I eat since you're not cooking that they got mother?

786
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 1: And I'm just saying, now, come from the grandmother. Yeah.

787
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,279
Speaker 1: Oh well, if we go, you know, like out and

788
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:40,800
Speaker 1: stuff and they want dessert, then I'll get some and

789
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 1: bring it home. But yeah, I'm not I'm not that

790
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 1: kind of grandmother. I am not just killing your killing

791
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 1: me right for me a sandwich? I can do that.

792
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: Let me say this. I think I love you right now,

793
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 1: calif a real went now she my girl. But now,

794
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:11,279
Speaker 1: but you know what I think. I think that we

795
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,320
Speaker 1: got a lot of women out there that are listening

796
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 1: to us this morning, and there is a lot of pressure,

797
00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 1: you know with women, especially, you know, if you're married.

798
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,160
Speaker 1: I have a young kid. I have a thirteen year

799
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:25,200
Speaker 1: old kid, so cooking not cooking is not an option,

800
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:29,400
Speaker 1: Shirley Shawberry. But you know, it's the cooking, it's the

801
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: helping with the homework, it's it's being a wife. It's

802
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:37,719
Speaker 1: taking her to cheer practice, Dan's practice, uh, doctor's appointments,

803
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 1: Dennis appointments. It's all of these things trying to balance

804
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: at all. And I think there is some kind of

805
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 1: there is the pressure of the perfection, yes, that you

806
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,480
Speaker 1: can do it all, that I can do it all,

807
00:48:52,840 --> 00:49:02,120
Speaker 1: and I and it pressing it look good. That's the point, Shirlotte. Pressure. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

808
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:05,239
Speaker 1: And I think we we put that pressure on ourselves

809
00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 1: sometimes and and and you know, I'm that type of

810
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 1: mom or that type of wife if I say do

811
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 1: this and do that and they don't do it the

812
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 1: way I want them to do it, and I just

813
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 1: do it myself. But then I don't want to be

814
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 1: that woman or that mom or that wife that turns

815
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:23,640
Speaker 1: around and then puts the guilt on him. I do everything. Well,

816
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:28,319
Speaker 1: you said, you know you can do it. So it's

817
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure. It's it's a it's a juggling

818
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,480
Speaker 1: app for sure. But go ahead. Well, first of all,

819
00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:37,320
Speaker 1: when I was married, my house was a chef and

820
00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 1: he was the Air Force Air Force and he went

821
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 1: to Kendall. He went to Kendall College right up in Evanston,

822
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: and so he But but I knew how to make

823
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:53,200
Speaker 1: spaghetti and pork chops and you know things. Point. But

824
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: my point was on my mother's side, my mother and

825
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: my my no mother, because I don't hand on Stepmama.

826
00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 1: I have two mothers that God gave me. They were

827
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,919
Speaker 1: both entrepreneurs. They were both strong women, and they held

828
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 1: it down in the house and at the church. But

829
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:12,600
Speaker 1: what I've learned is sometimes you got to let somebody

830
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:19,239
Speaker 1: come in and assist you are not But I mean

831
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 1: like if you if your husband is good on the grill,

832
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,360
Speaker 1: then he is the cook and you got the potato

833
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 1: salad right right what I'm saying. Or if I'm a

834
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:30,840
Speaker 1: boss out in these streets, I know I got to

835
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,080
Speaker 1: come home, rattle those sheets a couple of times and

836
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,040
Speaker 1: make a sandwich or put some cereal on the bowl

837
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 1: to let you know who I am up in this piece?

838
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:41,680
Speaker 1: Am I right? Mississippi? Monica? Take it, Take it, Monica,

839
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: Take it Monica, you know, and being single and being

840
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:48,319
Speaker 1: within this job, I've traveled so much for work, which

841
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 1: is a blessing and a curse because I can't. I

842
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:52,480
Speaker 1: just got lost in the job. I was having so

843
00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,799
Speaker 1: much fun. This is the best job I've ever had

844
00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,760
Speaker 1: and the longest job I've ever had. Because it's family.

845
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 1: We are a family like the Spring Framily right. We

846
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,600
Speaker 1: get along, we argue, we fight like sisters. Even when

847
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,800
Speaker 1: I met Cheryl, we argue and fight like sisters. College

848
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:12,680
Speaker 1: other sister I see in Jackson, Mississippis. But sometimes but

849
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:14,920
Speaker 1: you know, me and Carla been like me and Shirley.

850
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,200
Speaker 1: I will ignore how Carl in a minute, but it's

851
00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:20,640
Speaker 1: all up. So I'm here. But as far as dating,

852
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,360
Speaker 1: I've just kind of kind of pushed that to the wayside.

853
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:25,279
Speaker 1: And it's not that I miss anything, but I do

854
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 1: kind of sometimes think you all have families, you know,

855
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,160
Speaker 1: and Shary you've been married, Shirley you have sharedan and

856
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 1: Carla and Tasha, you know. But sometimes it's like I

857
00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: have all of that if I want to do that.

858
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:37,840
Speaker 1: So I'm okay over here, getting to watch TV whenever

859
00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:39,880
Speaker 1: I want to, and you know, cook when I want to.

860
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 1: Panica wanted to say to you because a lot of

861
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:54,200
Speaker 1: times people label being single as being lonely. Yeah, I

862
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:56,799
Speaker 1: don't want you to speak on that as well. Yeah,

863
00:51:56,880 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 1: because I've been exactly the Armonica exactly where you are. Absolutely, yeah, exactly,

864
00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,399
Speaker 1: and we shop for hours and forget to eat because

865
00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,840
Speaker 1: we were single. So now that you may surely where's

866
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,320
Speaker 1: my shopping partner? You know? But now, but I was,

867
00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 1: I have a long draw, you know, between a long

868
00:52:14,320 --> 00:52:18,319
Speaker 1: stretch long one. Yeah, but you're single, but you're not lonely, right,

869
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,320
Speaker 1: So no, no, And our own boss says, I'm the

870
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,520
Speaker 1: only person he knows that's happy to stay in the house,

871
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:26,840
Speaker 1: and I truly am. When you find happiness within yourself,

872
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,359
Speaker 1: you don't need anyone else, and you shouldn't be looking

873
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 1: for that in a partner anyway. If you're not happy,

874
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,880
Speaker 1: you can't be happy in a relationship. Being single, like

875
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,920
Speaker 1: Carla said, does not equate to loneliness. Like I have

876
00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,080
Speaker 1: everything I need in my home. I can take care

877
00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:42,719
Speaker 1: of myself. I just need someone if they're coming into

878
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:45,239
Speaker 1: my life to compliment what I'm doing. I don't need

879
00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:47,919
Speaker 1: a savior. I don't need a sugar daddy. I don't

880
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,800
Speaker 1: need this or that. You know, my daddy taught me,

881
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 1: don't ever call the sugar daddy, I'm you know, call

882
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:59,680
Speaker 1: me so. I'm already happy. Yeah, I'm already happy. I

883
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 1: don't need a man to make me happy. Now, if

884
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:06,800
Speaker 1: he wants to make me happier, come on in happy.

885
00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 1: I'm not looking to you. Yeah, I'm not looking to

886
00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 1: you to make me happy. I'm good, I'm happy, thank you. Yeah.

887
00:53:12,719 --> 00:53:15,760
Speaker 1: But I do believe the success is nothing without someone

888
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:20,000
Speaker 1: you love to share with. Billy D Williams. And also, yeah,

889
00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 1: I am my own woman. But listen, I know I

890
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:25,879
Speaker 1: got some options out there, and I got my eyes

891
00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 1: on a couple of things, and I got a couple

892
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:30,280
Speaker 1: of things in the chamber. But I've been a widow

893
00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:33,440
Speaker 1: for a long time. But that don't mean today popping

894
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,719
Speaker 1: over here. I know you have to get out of

895
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 1: our own way. We overthink situations sometimes we have to.

896
00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:42,680
Speaker 1: We overthink everything. All right, we're gonna come back. We're

897
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: gonna come back with the Strawberry letter. Look at the time,

898
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 1: do I give up my dreams from my marriages? The subject,

899
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 1: we'll get into it right after this. You're listening to

900
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:57,160
Speaker 1: the show Happy International Women's Day. The ladies have taken

Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, thank you. International Day? Subject? Do

931
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 1: I give up my dreams for my marriage? Dear Stephen, Shirley.

932
00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:03,160
Speaker 1: I worked from home as a corporate sales leader for

933
00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,320
Speaker 1: five years. In February, I quit my job to do

934
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:10,040
Speaker 1: a podcast with two of my best girlfriends. Let me

935
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 1: give you a little backstory. My husband and I met

936
00:56:12,680 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: in college and got married when we were twenty four

937
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 1: and started a family. We had our first child when

938
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,880
Speaker 1: we were twenty five, and our second child on my

939
00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,880
Speaker 1: twenty seventh birthday. I have a degree in mass communications

940
00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:28,000
Speaker 1: and I've always wanted a radio job, which is why

941
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:31,920
Speaker 1: I want your advice. My husband was always pushing me

942
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,000
Speaker 1: to work towards my goals, but he reminded me that

943
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:38,719
Speaker 1: I had two small children that need me. He has

944
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:42,239
Speaker 1: excelled in his real estate company and he coaches a

945
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:45,720
Speaker 1: little league football team for our county. We're now thirty

946
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 1: years old and I'm ready to pursue my dreams of

947
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 1: connecting with an audience. So I got my girlfriends and

948
00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:54,680
Speaker 1: we decided to start a podcast. My husband was supportive

949
00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:58,279
Speaker 1: until he realized I would be away from the home

950
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 1: two days a week. The lady and I had a

951
00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:04,400
Speaker 1: photo shoot one Saturday and it took six hours. My

952
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 1: husband was irritated when I got home because he had

953
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 1: the children all day and he had to run errands

954
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 1: with them. I deal with that all the time, so

955
00:57:13,239 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: I tuned out his complaining. We record the podcast in

956
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,800
Speaker 1: a studio on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, so I'm usually

957
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:22,040
Speaker 1: gone most of the day to get ready for the show,

958
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:25,160
Speaker 1: and my husband has the kids. After only two short

959
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:28,080
Speaker 1: weeks of me leaving him with the kids, he decided

960
00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 1: that we needed to set up a home studio for

961
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 1: my podcast. I told him that I don't want to

962
00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:36,600
Speaker 1: do the podcast at home. I love getting a break

963
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 1: and the opportunity to work in peace and quiet. There's

964
00:57:40,360 --> 00:57:44,560
Speaker 1: so much tension at home. Now, do I give up

965
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 1: my dreams for my marriage? M Now, what do you

966
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 1: think we're gonna say this? Okay, especially on International Women's Day?

967
00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:59,000
Speaker 1: Absolutely not, Okay, that would be a big fat no.

968
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:02,000
Speaker 1: Do not do that. Don't give up your dreams for anyone,

969
00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:05,400
Speaker 1: And don't let the fact that you have kids stop you.

970
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:07,840
Speaker 1: I mean, Carl and I have kids. Women do it

971
00:58:08,000 --> 00:58:11,680
Speaker 1: all the time, all every day, all the time. You know.

972
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 1: It has to do with organization and how you juggle

973
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:17,080
Speaker 1: and your support system all that. You can do this. Okay,

974
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:19,800
Speaker 1: you've already done it. You can do it when like

975
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,000
Speaker 1: I said, women do it all the day all the time.

976
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,360
Speaker 1: And I was a single parent after my separation and

977
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:27,920
Speaker 1: my divorce, I was a single parent. So you know

978
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,600
Speaker 1: you've got a juggle. You can do it. I just

979
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,600
Speaker 1: had help, all right, I had help. Your kids need

980
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:35,920
Speaker 1: to see you. They need to see you working. They

981
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 1: need to see you passionate about what you're doing about life,

982
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:44,040
Speaker 1: your career. Your husband is trying to guilt you, okay,

983
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:47,800
Speaker 1: into doing it how he wants you to do it. Okay,

984
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:50,640
Speaker 1: do a studio at home? Yeah, a lot of people

985
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,080
Speaker 1: do podcasts at home, but you stayed it in the letter.

986
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:55,240
Speaker 1: You don't want to do that. You want to get

987
00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 1: out the house. And guess what? This is only for

988
00:58:57,680 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 1: two days a week, Tuesday and Thursday. He can't stay

989
00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:04,440
Speaker 1: with the kids two days a week. These are his

990
00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:07,160
Speaker 1: kids too. What the heck is he talking about here?

991
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 1: I don't understand. He needs to do his part. That

992
00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:15,560
Speaker 1: means taking care of the kids two days a week.

993
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 1: What is that? And they're his offspring? All right, this

994
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:23,080
Speaker 1: shouldn't be a problem because he's doing so well as

995
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:26,680
Speaker 1: his real estate business. You said that, right, So if

996
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,360
Speaker 1: there's a problem, perhaps you know he can call in

997
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:33,200
Speaker 1: help or something. Speak up for yourself, That's what I say.

998
00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:37,560
Speaker 1: Find your voice, Let your voice be heard in this marriage. Okay.

999
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 1: I hate it when people do this to each other.

1000
00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:41,920
Speaker 1: I hate it when they get jealous or they get

1001
00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:45,520
Speaker 1: intimidated or I don't like that. So you know, you

1002
00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 1: guys can work these things out. Just speak up for yourself, Cheryl,

1003
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 1: go ahead. Well, I'm gonna need a whole another break,

1004
00:59:52,160 --> 00:59:55,880
Speaker 1: so and I'm gonna need some backup, Carla Farrel, missive Monica.

1005
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need y'all in this because what I'm gonna

1006
00:59:58,120 --> 01:00:00,920
Speaker 1: say in the next break it's all a about your husband.

1007
01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 1: You need to wait till the other side of the break, Girl,

1008
01:00:10,040 --> 01:00:13,560
Speaker 1: International Women's Day. Oh I had I had a mute

1009
01:00:13,680 --> 01:00:16,200
Speaker 1: myself because what I'm gonna say on the other side

1010
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 1: of the break, and I'm gonna need back up because

1011
01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:21,320
Speaker 1: women are now yelling at the radio right now going

1012
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 1: say that. We are going to all say that and

1013
01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:29,960
Speaker 1: empower this woman. It's your husband. Oh, I'm sorry, all right, Cheryl,

1014
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:32,480
Speaker 1: hold that thought. Okay, We're gonna get to part two

1015
01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:37,520
Speaker 1: of the Strawberry Letter with Cheryl Underwood's response at twenty

1016
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,040
Speaker 1: three minutes after the hour, the subject do I give

1017
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:43,680
Speaker 1: up my dreams for my marriage? We'll get back into

1018
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:48,880
Speaker 1: it right after this. You're listening to show, all right,

1019
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:52,280
Speaker 1: come on, we're gonna recap the letter quickly, Cheryl. The

1020
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 1: subject is do I give up my dreams from my marriage?

1021
01:00:55,840 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 1: A young lady wrote in she's thirty now. She wants

1022
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 1: to do a podcast, but she has two kids, and

1023
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:04,400
Speaker 1: she does a podcast two two times a week. She

1024
01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 1: has a husband who's been with her all this time.

1025
01:01:07,440 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 1: They met in college, and everything he gets upset and

1026
01:01:10,120 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 1: irritated when she goes out to do her her job,

1027
01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:17,920
Speaker 1: her podcast, because he doesn't like staying with his kids.

1028
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:21,080
Speaker 1: So she he wants her to bring a studio, to

1029
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:23,600
Speaker 1: build a studio in their home so she won't have

1030
01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:26,680
Speaker 1: to leave. That's one of the reasons she's leaving because

1031
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:29,000
Speaker 1: she wants a break. Two days a week. There are

1032
01:01:29,120 --> 01:01:32,080
Speaker 1: seven days in a week. The other five days she's

1033
01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:35,640
Speaker 1: got the kids, sir. So anyway, that's that's pretty much

1034
01:01:35,680 --> 01:01:38,480
Speaker 1: the gist of this letter, Cheryl. So you say what,

1035
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,120
Speaker 1: she's a hostage. Get out as fast as you can,

1036
01:01:42,560 --> 01:01:46,400
Speaker 1: your hostage them, your kids them, not dude kids. Put

1037
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:50,240
Speaker 1: them kids right in his lap, peas and carts everything

1038
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:54,080
Speaker 1: and let him see because see, he been out slaying dragons,

1039
01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,160
Speaker 1: he went out doing real estate and everything, and she's

1040
01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:59,840
Speaker 1: been holding it down and he wants to keep her there.

1041
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,680
Speaker 1: She has dreams. You can have a happy marriage and

1042
01:02:03,960 --> 01:02:06,240
Speaker 1: have dreams. And I want to know what's he liked

1043
01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:08,280
Speaker 1: that in college because some of us we you know,

1044
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:10,680
Speaker 1: we go out for that happily ever after and we're

1045
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:12,880
Speaker 1: married to do and he doesn't evolve, but we have

1046
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:15,840
Speaker 1: evolved and we're ready to do some more things. But

1047
01:02:15,960 --> 01:02:17,840
Speaker 1: you want me to stay over him, be a hostage.

1048
01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:21,080
Speaker 1: What you mean a couple of hours which your kids?

1049
01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:24,160
Speaker 1: We went half on a baby. These are your kids.

1050
01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:27,120
Speaker 1: You need to keep these kids. And this podcast, one

1051
01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:29,600
Speaker 1: of my podcasts, blow up and I'm worth hundreds of

1052
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:31,520
Speaker 1: millions of dollars, then you're gonna want to come over

1053
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 1: here and do something with somebody. Sister. Let me just

1054
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,480
Speaker 1: tell you something. I know you love him. I know

1055
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:39,040
Speaker 1: you love it. See I thought about that should describe here,

1056
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:41,800
Speaker 1: But I don't believe in divorce. I believe until death

1057
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,600
Speaker 1: do us part you first, because I ain't going nowhere.

1058
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 1: I got married in front of my friends. I got

1059
01:02:47,360 --> 01:02:49,560
Speaker 1: half a cake in the freezer. This is not the

1060
01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:54,360
Speaker 1: end of this relationship. Sometimes, Cheryl, Oh, listen, you're talking

01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:56,600
Speaker 1: to a widow. You're talking to something about it else

01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:16,760

01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 1: our men and especially when we meet them young, and

1069
01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:22,160
Speaker 1: we have these hopes and these dreams, and they make

1070
01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: it seem like I'm gonna do this, and then you

1071
01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:25,960
Speaker 1: gonna go get choice, and then when I go to

1072
01:03:26,200 --> 01:03:28,800
Speaker 1: try to get mine, you make it seem like you don't.

1073
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:31,360
Speaker 1: You don't. Forgot on the snuggle tip what we were

1074
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 1: talking about over at the Zanz the Bar in the

1075
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,800
Speaker 1: fifteen minute, did I say too much off Stony Island?

1076
01:03:37,200 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 1: It came out. It did right right across street from

1077
01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 1: Sweet Georgia Brown shout out right. But I'm telling you

1078
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 1: we all failed for this. Where the dude was we

1079
01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 1: were talking about what we gonna do together, but really

1080
01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:53,720
Speaker 1: he was talking about what he was gonna do for himself.

1081
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 1: And then when I've done my part and I want

1082
01:03:56,680 --> 01:03:58,880
Speaker 1: to get out in the world and see about my

1083
01:03:59,160 --> 01:04:01,960
Speaker 1: dreams and I don't want to lose my family because

1084
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 1: I love you, and then you show me who you are?

1085
01:04:05,680 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 1: Is that the man that I fell in love with?

1086
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,560
Speaker 1: Carli Parell, you say what absolutely, Cheryl, I agree with

1087
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,560
Speaker 1: you one hundred percent. I agree with what Shirley is

1088
01:04:13,600 --> 01:04:16,120
Speaker 1: saying one hundred percent. I mean, this woman has a

1089
01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 1: degree in mass communications, and so do I I have

1090
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:21,720
Speaker 1: a degree in mass communication. So she went to school

1091
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,960
Speaker 1: for this. This is her passion, this is her dream.

1092
01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:27,080
Speaker 1: And you mean to tell me that she's looking at

1093
01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:30,560
Speaker 1: her husband, her man, as a dream killer, your dream crushing.

1094
01:04:30,720 --> 01:04:33,400
Speaker 1: We are as one when we get married, We are

1095
01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 1: as one, our union are as one. You should be

1096
01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:40,000
Speaker 1: right there with me. I'm right there with you, supporting you,

1097
01:04:40,560 --> 01:04:42,800
Speaker 1: and you should be right there with me. Support team

1098
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:46,320
Speaker 1: my dreams, and support team your wife and your kids.

1099
01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 1: Like you're doing me a face watching the kids. These

1100
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:52,120
Speaker 1: are your kids too. You need to be a part

1101
01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:56,320
Speaker 1: of it. Yeah. Yeah, I got set up for an

1102
01:04:56,360 --> 01:05:00,320
Speaker 1: oaky dog. You like to me, that's what happened, and

1103
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,600
Speaker 1: that's the issues he should be. But the reality is

1104
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:06,480
Speaker 1: he's not. He should be, you know, that's what we

1105
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 1: signed up for. Go ahead, Monica. Well, in my situation,

1106
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:14,360
Speaker 1: I was in a similar situation when I got when

1107
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:17,600
Speaker 1: I started working with you guys, I was working from

1108
01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:19,480
Speaker 1: home for six years and it was fine with the

1109
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:21,880
Speaker 1: guy was dating because I was home during the day

1110
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:24,200
Speaker 1: and you know, we could run around and play and

1111
01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,200
Speaker 1: you know, but I had to go to work now

1112
01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:28,520
Speaker 1: and he's like, oh, well, that job is too demanding

1113
01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:31,800
Speaker 1: and you're there too long, and you know, I'm like, okay,

1114
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:34,000
Speaker 1: but this is what I chose to do. So it's

1115
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:37,880
Speaker 1: like you either find you something to do or you know,

1116
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:39,800
Speaker 1: we can't see each other. And then you know the

1117
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:42,760
Speaker 1: stress of him always well why are you always gone?

1118
01:05:42,800 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 1: And why are you dressing? Why are you doing this?

1119
01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:46,400
Speaker 1: And why are you doing that? Now you're traveling. It

1120
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:48,800
Speaker 1: just fell by the wayside because I lost interest in

1121
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:52,120
Speaker 1: the constant need for him to control where I was,

1122
01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:56,000
Speaker 1: why I wanted to do that. He was very insecure,

1123
01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,720
Speaker 1: and then I was around you guys who are radio

1124
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:02,360
Speaker 1: my coins and legends and oh what you must like

1125
01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:04,240
Speaker 1: this and you must like that? Yes, yes I do.

1126
01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:06,960
Speaker 1: So you know I'm not gonna don't play any of

1127
01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:10,160
Speaker 1: that or for you know, push anything I want to

1128
01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 1: do to the wayside for him. So he finally he

1129
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:15,760
Speaker 1: kind of got the clue and well, can I say that.

1130
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,560
Speaker 1: I really can't say this because I want to say this.

1131
01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:21,440
Speaker 1: I believe in marriage, and I believe if I'm not

1132
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:24,600
Speaker 1: an asset to my man and my family, then I

1133
01:06:24,640 --> 01:06:28,240
Speaker 1: will remove myself. I think there is some discussion to

1134
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 1: be had, but he is going to have to understand

1135
01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:33,959
Speaker 1: this is her time now. And if you are really

1136
01:06:34,040 --> 01:06:36,440
Speaker 1: the man that she fell in love and who she married,

1137
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 1: and the father of the children and the head of

1138
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 1: the household, then be a man stand by your one

1139
01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:47,440
Speaker 1: when to her dream because you've been doing your dream

1140
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:50,480
Speaker 1: and she's been supporting you. All right, this calls for

1141
01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 1: a part three. I think of the Strawberry Letter. Today.

1142
01:06:53,720 --> 01:06:57,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna continue this conversation. Please, this is international. We

1143
01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 1: could do it were run the MinC today, right, this

1144
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:03,280
Speaker 1: is International Woman's Day. We'll be back right after this.

1145
01:07:04,040 --> 01:07:09,360
Speaker 1: You're listening to all right. This kind of sparked a conversation.

1146
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:12,120
Speaker 1: We were having it before we went to break and

1147
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:14,520
Speaker 1: off the air as well. It had something to do

1148
01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 1: with the Strawberry Letter? Do I give up my dreams

1149
01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:19,600
Speaker 1: for my marriage? And Cheryl? I think when we left

1150
01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:22,520
Speaker 1: off you were saying you were telling her, don't let

1151
01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:24,760
Speaker 1: her husband be a dream killer. These are her dreams.

1152
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:27,640
Speaker 1: She wanted to see them come to fruition. Otherwise you're

1153
01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:30,080
Speaker 1: living in a nightmare. I'm sorry if you don't get

1154
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:32,920
Speaker 1: to live out your dreams and the things you have

1155
01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:35,200
Speaker 1: in your heart, your purpose and all of that, your

1156
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:38,600
Speaker 1: goals because someone is trying to hold you down. And

1157
01:07:39,040 --> 01:07:42,120
Speaker 1: the person you would not think that would be doing that,

1158
01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:45,440
Speaker 1: your husband. You're the closest person to you. You know,

1159
01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:49,400
Speaker 1: there's a problem that that's a nightmare. That is a nightmare.

1160
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,240
Speaker 1: And that's what that's what I called a relationship. Okay, dope,

1161
01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:55,240
Speaker 1: because when we was falling in love, we're talking about

1162
01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:56,880
Speaker 1: all these things we were gonna do together, all these

1163
01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:59,200
Speaker 1: things you agree with and maybe you can do this,

1164
01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna help you do this. Now. I think

1165
01:08:01,720 --> 01:08:04,480
Speaker 1: he even tried to I think he tried to soften

1166
01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,600
Speaker 1: about Okay, we're gonna make a studio in the house.

1167
01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 1: But that still ties me to the house you're not

1168
01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:16,479
Speaker 1: to get out of. And she deserves that, and she

1169
01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: deserves two days a week out of seven. You can't

1170
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:23,560
Speaker 1: handle your kids two days a week. That you know?

1171
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:28,920
Speaker 1: I think that you also beautiful? Don't you agree? No matter?

1172
01:08:31,920 --> 01:08:35,599
Speaker 1: I mean, let me just say, marriage is work. Yes,

1173
01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:38,599
Speaker 1: marriage is work, but it's a two way street. It's

1174
01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:42,759
Speaker 1: a two way street. My husband is a mortgage alone officer,

1175
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:45,840
Speaker 1: you know, for Wells Fargo, and he has a very

1176
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:48,640
Speaker 1: demanding job too. I have a job. I have a

1177
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:52,599
Speaker 1: very demanding job. So we come together as one as

1178
01:08:53,000 --> 01:08:56,479
Speaker 1: building our empire, our dreams. What do you want? What

1179
01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 1: do you want? And we come together as one to

1180
01:08:59,400 --> 01:09:02,080
Speaker 1: try to press sue our dreams, to grow our emprior

1181
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,040
Speaker 1: to grow our family. What are our long term goals?

1182
01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:08,040
Speaker 1: What are your short term goals? So for him as

1183
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:13,800
Speaker 1: her king, as her husband, to just basically tell her no, no, no,

1184
01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:18,160
Speaker 1: that is a serious that is a serious problem. And

1185
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:21,400
Speaker 1: marriage is about compromise, right, And let me say this,

1186
01:09:22,400 --> 01:09:24,839
Speaker 1: this happened. Not to interrupt your color, but this happens

1187
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:28,400
Speaker 1: way more than we think. Okay, this goes on in

1188
01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:32,200
Speaker 1: marriages all the time, all the time, you know. And

1189
01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:36,520
Speaker 1: it's always us, the women who usually take the backseat.

1190
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,760
Speaker 1: And you know, we have that mommy guilt. Every mom

1191
01:09:39,880 --> 01:09:41,840
Speaker 1: has it. We have that guilt. We want to be

1192
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:44,799
Speaker 1: there for the kids and do what's right for the kids.

1193
01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:48,400
Speaker 1: And like you say, this is a compromise. It's supposed

1194
01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:51,400
Speaker 1: to be a compromise, each person, you know, having the

1195
01:09:51,520 --> 01:09:54,320
Speaker 1: other's back, supporting each other and all of that. And

1196
01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:56,800
Speaker 1: that's why I tell her to find her voice and

1197
01:09:56,880 --> 01:10:00,320
Speaker 1: speak up, keep ignoring this man, keep doing and don't

1198
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:06,720
Speaker 1: do it disrespectfully, But do you books, then Yo kids too.

1199
01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:10,439
Speaker 1: We went half. This is fun, ladies, but we got

Speaker 1: Doctor Jackie. Season eight of Bravo's hit show Married to Medicine,

1221

Speaker 1: season eight. What can we expect now? The truth? This

1227
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:56,360
Speaker 1: season is probably the most impactful season ever for me

1228
01:11:56,520 --> 01:12:00,519
Speaker 1: because we got in there, we did COVID texting, we

1229
01:12:00,640 --> 01:12:04,680
Speaker 1: got into the Black Matter movement, we went to the

1230
01:12:04,840 --> 01:12:09,080
Speaker 1: March on Washington and actually did COVID testing there. So

1231
01:12:09,280 --> 01:12:12,040
Speaker 1: this season was like the mission of all missions for me,

1232
01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,640
Speaker 1: so I fairly enjoyed it. It was weird because we

1233
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,240
Speaker 1: had to wear mad We still had the girlfriend drama.

1234
01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:20,760
Speaker 1: You saw what happened when the white coat came home.

1235
01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:27,519

1239
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:40,280
Speaker 1: like you say, when you take those white coats on

1240
01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 1: Okay Okay baby, and this year I'm caught in between

1244
01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:05,040
Speaker 1: And I know sometimes it takes a toll. It does

1245
01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:07,599
Speaker 1: take a toll when you're dealing with yes, but yeah

1246
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:10,920
Speaker 1: they are. So I'm sorry, sir that there's two. They're

1247
01:13:11,040 --> 01:13:16,799
Speaker 1: totally two, totally different person nationality. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's crazy,

1248
01:13:17,720 --> 01:13:23,840
Speaker 1: it's crazy. Yeah. Yeah. So you are a breast cancer

1249
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:28,360
Speaker 1: survivor and you've been very open and transparent about your

1250
01:13:28,439 --> 01:13:32,600
Speaker 1: journey with breast cancer. We're all about early detection on

1251
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:35,280
Speaker 1: the show, so let's talk about that for a moment,

1252
01:13:35,360 --> 01:13:38,640
Speaker 1: Doctor Jackie. So I'm an early time breast cancer survivor,

1253
01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:42,640
Speaker 1: and you know my line is your greatest wealth in

1254
01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:44,920
Speaker 1: life is your health, and you have to take it yourself.

1255
01:13:45,280 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 1: I have a whole new campaign that I'm starting because

1256
01:13:48,040 --> 01:13:50,920
Speaker 1: black women are forty two percent more likely to die

1257
01:13:50,960 --> 01:13:54,519
Speaker 1: from breast cancer than a Caucasian woman. So my story

1258
01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 1: to every woman in the office is if we're dying more,

1259
01:13:58,240 --> 01:14:01,240
Speaker 1: we should be doing more. And that I'm like get

1260
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:04,400
Speaker 1: your Mamma Graham. Let's start very simple. Do a chelf

1261
01:14:04,479 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 1: breast exam every moment. Know your family history. We offer

1262
01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:11,040
Speaker 1: genetic testing in the office now so you can know

1263
01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:14,040
Speaker 1: if you carry any gene that would predispose you to

1264
01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:18,599
Speaker 1: grasp colon overy, pancreatic. So we're telling women, know your

1265
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:21,920
Speaker 1: family history, make sure you're doing your self breast exam.

1266
01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:24,720
Speaker 1: And now I'm about to step up some tols. And

1267
01:14:24,920 --> 01:14:28,400
Speaker 1: you are what you eat. So I'm a big advocate

1268
01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:30,920
Speaker 1: on eating live. If you didn't kill her to grow

1269

01:15:57,520 --> 01:16:01,320
Speaker 1: doing your age appropriate testing. If you're forty years old

1294
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:04,599

Speaker 1: You know, screening mamograms are covered on the most plans,

1297
01:16:10,240 --> 01:16:13,519

1304
01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:33,400

1305
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,240
Speaker 1: and go take each other to the mammogram and then

1306

1313
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:07,880
Speaker 1: We're talking about women's health. To doctor Jackie Walters, you

1314
01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:12,200
Speaker 1: have been vaccinated and I had my first round of

1315
01:17:12,320 --> 01:17:16,000
Speaker 1: the vaccination myself. So what is the message for our

1316
01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:21,240
Speaker 1: females out there about getting vaccinated? Great questions. Again. Again,

1317
01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick with women of color because it's impacting

1318
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:30,120
Speaker 1: us definitely distroportunately. More, we are two point nine times

1319
01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:35,479
Speaker 1: more likely to die from COVID. So we're telling women. Please,

1320
01:17:35,720 --> 01:17:37,680
Speaker 1: if you are a woman of color and you can

1321
01:17:37,760 --> 01:17:40,680
Speaker 1: have your vaccine, please get it. It doesn't matter about it.

1322
01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:43,120
Speaker 1: And you know, the big thing is do I get spizer?

1323
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:45,160
Speaker 1: Do I get mad? Do I get J? And J

1324
01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:49,479
Speaker 1: get a vaccine? Right? I'm telling her everybody that because

1325
01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:52,680
Speaker 1: to watch pregnant women come into the hospital where they

1326
01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:55,960
Speaker 1: can't breathe and they're separated from their baby for a

1327
01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:58,800
Speaker 1: short period of time, or they're very ill and they

1328
01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:02,200
Speaker 1: have to go to qu is heartbreaking. So I'm telling

1329
01:18:02,360 --> 01:18:05,320
Speaker 1: everybody we're ready to get back to norm, but let's

1330
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:09,639
Speaker 1: please take out time get your vaccine. It's not live virus.

1331
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:11,640
Speaker 1: That's what I want everybody to know. It's not a

1332
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:14,760
Speaker 1: live virus that you're getting. So you're not going to

1333
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:19,280
Speaker 1: get COVID from getting the vaccination. Yeah, we're gonna make antibody,

1334
01:18:19,400 --> 01:18:23,480
Speaker 1: so it's covid. The live virus entered your body from contact.

1335
01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:26,320
Speaker 1: Then your immune system is ready to fight it off.

1336
01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:30,759
Speaker 1: So it's like an army, right, So I'm begging everybody,

1337
01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:33,559
Speaker 1: get your vaccine. Ain't don you get sick. And if

1338
01:18:33,600 --> 01:18:36,920
Speaker 1: you have a really severe immune response, you may feel

1339
01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:40,040
Speaker 1: a little achy or something. Your arm was four but

1340
01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:42,640
Speaker 1: I didn't feel anything. I was mad. I wanted my

1341
01:18:42,800 --> 01:18:47,639
Speaker 1: arm to be four like day too, but it was okay.

1342
01:18:48,000 --> 01:18:49,880
Speaker 1: But I want to Cheryl Schryl, you got a question

1343
01:18:49,960 --> 01:18:51,760

Speaker 1: up what's going to be. But we need to make

1347
01:18:57,760 --> 01:18:59,760
Speaker 1: sure it's mobile and people know where they can get

1348
01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:02,240
Speaker 1: the vaccine because people don't have transportation to get it.

1423
01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:53,720

1424
01:23:53,800 --> 01:24:01,479

1425
01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:04,080
Speaker 1: in town. But okay, I gotta show out a question.

1426
01:24:04,160 --> 01:24:06,840
Speaker 1: Oh okay, you go first early because you I was

1427
01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:09,080
Speaker 1: gonna ask you. I was gonna guess, I was gonna

1428
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,640
Speaker 1: ask you. Did you learn anything today? You know what

1429
01:24:11,760 --> 01:24:14,040
Speaker 1: I learned. I learned when powerful women come together, we

1430
01:24:14,080 --> 01:24:17,560
Speaker 1: can do powerful things. I learned that the h this

1431
01:24:17,760 --> 01:24:19,320
Speaker 1: might have to be a second show, maybe on the

1432
01:24:19,360 --> 01:24:21,960
Speaker 1: weekend or something. We just get together. Um, and I

1433
01:24:22,040 --> 01:24:24,120
Speaker 1: do understand the power of radio. That's why we had

1434
01:24:24,160 --> 01:24:27,040
Speaker 1: something called Black Radio Solidarity dot Com where we talk

1435
01:24:27,080 --> 01:24:30,800
Speaker 1: about businesses, we talk about vaccinations and things like that.

1436
01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:34,240
Speaker 1: We have to use the power, especially a black radio,

1437
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:38,360
Speaker 1: to advance certain causes. If we can sell product, if

1438
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:41,440
Speaker 1: we can sell culture, then we can save a democracy.

1439
01:24:41,479 --> 01:24:43,840
Speaker 1: And we did all of those things through the power

1440
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:47,600
Speaker 1: of black radio and black media. So I'm thinking you

1441
01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:50,439
Speaker 1: all for allowing me to be part of this with

1442
01:24:50,640 --> 01:24:52,400
Speaker 1: you ladies today. And I love being part of the

1443
01:24:52,439 --> 01:24:55,240
Speaker 1: Steve Harvey Morning Show family. I love being part of

1444
01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:58,519
Speaker 1: the Cheryl, Like we said, we wouldn't do it without you.

1445
01:24:58,600 --> 01:25:02,400
Speaker 1: We couldn't see ourselves doing without you. Right, let's have

1446
01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:05,479
Speaker 1: a we shan't have a political round type because there's

1447
01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:06,800
Speaker 1: so much we need to talk about, Like we need

1448
01:25:06,840 --> 01:25:08,800
Speaker 1: to talk about how Trump need to never come back

1449
01:25:08,840 --> 01:25:13,160
Speaker 1: and do anything. We need to lay that, yes, and

1450

Speaker 1: more than that. Next year, we have to get ready

01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:21,720
Speaker 1: I mean, we did what we had to do for

1453
01:25:21,960 --> 01:25:24,840
Speaker 1: this past election last year, but we have They're They're

1454
01:25:24,920 --> 01:25:27,280
