Like just 17 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: the stress level that I'm trying to get under control. 18 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: I'm working on a couple of projects that I will 19 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: tell you all about soon to try and deal find 20 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: different tools to deal with the amount of stress that 21 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,399 Speaker 1: we are all dealing with. And as I discover new 22 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: things and try new things. I love to share them 23 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: with all of you, you know. Particularly, I've talked about meditation. 24 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: I've talked about yoga, which I don't do nearly enough, 25 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: but I do meditate multiple times a day, and I 26 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: have found that very helpful. I'm waiting for this fucking 27 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: gray spring to leave New York where it rains every 28 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: single day, which doesn't help with your view are like me, 29 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: and I've discovered that you are have seasonal depression where 30 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: I can take rainy days, and some rainy days I 31 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: really love, but multiple gray days in a row are 32 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: really hard for my spirits. I feel very tired, just 33 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: very lethargic. You know, it's really it just takes a 34 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 1: toll after a while. So spring of New York is 35 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: tough because that's what we get here. Nonetheless, as I 36 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: look over this week, folks, I mean, the fuckory knows 37 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: no bounds, the racism knows no bounds, and I just 38 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like this country is just 39 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: in a death spiral. Do you know, Like every day 40 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: there's another headline, you know, MiFi pristone is being heard 41 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: right now before this fucking right wing, grifting ass Supreme 42 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: Court and Let's take a deep breath. Let's take a 43 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: deep breath. Okay, let me start, because I just I 44 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 1: felt myself starting to spiral and we don't want to 45 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: do that on this Friday. So let's start with the 46 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: bullshit reduction in bond for Donald Trump. Once again, the 47 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: justice system shows us that there are multiple lanes of justice. 48 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: And if you are rich and white and straight, then 49 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: you will get into the express lane where it is 50 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: always green lights, where there are no tolls, there are 51 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: no cops. You can do basically whatever you want. And 52 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: if you want to weave in and out of that 53 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: lane and potentially strike or kill other people on the 54 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: road with you, so be it. You're in the fast lane, 55 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: like you got that complexion for the protection, right, So 56 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: who gives a fuck about everybody else that's on the road, Right, 57 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: they should watch out for you. That's essentially where we 58 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: are with these Trump cases. And just when we thought 59 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: that maybe maybe after fifty years of grifting, after fifty 60 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: years of abating the law, after fifty years of assaulting women, 61 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: of lying, of stealing, of grifting, of all of these things, 62 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: that maybe, just maybe it would catch up, and then 63 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: a judge is like, no, maybe we should just give 64 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 1: him a break, you know, because life has been so 65 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: tough for Donald Trump that he needs a break. What 66 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: I would love is for the justice system to treat 67 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: Donald Trump like any black man that is assumed guilty, 68 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: right even when they're innocent, even when there is nothing 69 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: to hold them on, no reason to shoot them. I 70 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: want the justice fucking system to treat Donald Trump like 71 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: a black man. How about that? You know? I want 72 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: to say this not like I talk a lot about, 73 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,799 Speaker 1: like you know, culture and like hip hop or anything 74 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: on WOKF even though huge fan, It's just not really 75 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: what I talk about on this show. But I will 76 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: say this. If you've at all been following the downfall 77 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: of Sean Diddy Combs, you know, founder of Bad Boy Records, rapper, entrepreneur, 78 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: you know, billionaire, all the things, and you know this year, 79 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: Sean Diddy Combs's character has begin to unravel right where 80 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: he was sued initially by his ex girlfriend Cassie, another 81 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,520 Speaker 1: R and B singer who he'd been in relationship with 82 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: for ten years, right like or more, and you know 83 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: people in Hollywood. The thing that always strikes me is 84 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: that it's as if we all just don't pay attention 85 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: or it's just par for the course. The age gaps 86 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: that you see in Hollywood that are just if you 87 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: saw them anywhere else, it would be incredibly suspect, But 88 00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: in Hollywood we're like, oh, it's totally fine. Nonetheless, when 89 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: Cassie and Diddy got together, they were she was young, right, 90 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 1: like young. I believe he may be twenty plus years 91 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: older than her. Nonetheless, in her lawsuit, which he basically 92 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: had go away because he paid her out, she told 93 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: the absolute disgusting story of sexual abuse, of physical abuse, 94 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: of mental abuse, of stalking, of pressure campaign from outside people. 95 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: It was about ten years of being in prison, right. 96 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: And for people who will say, well, you know she 97 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: could have left in this, that and the other thing 98 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 1: when you were young and super impressionable, I just want 99 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: people to remember being you know, a teenager, right, and 100 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: having somebody who is older pay attention to you. It's 101 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: particularly inside of your industry where they are taking you 102 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 1: underneath their wing and everybody is telling you how lucky 103 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: you are, and so you know, you just take what 104 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: is given to you. Well, the FEDS raided two of 105 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: Diti's homes and there was video that came out from 106 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: TMZ of what a fucking raid looks like, right, which 107 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 1: is I mean, oh my god, like just horrible TV 108 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 1: pulls out of the wall, like just couches ripped, I 109 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: mean just ransacked. And I thought to myself, Huh, where 110 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: the fuck was this energy for Donald Trump? Literally, this 111 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: is what I'm saying when we talk about one being 112 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: given a heads up, which Donald Trump was that his 113 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: place was going to be rated enough of a heads 114 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: up so that he could get his henchmen to oh, 115 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: empty the pool into the document's room, that he had 116 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: enough of the heads up so that he could get 117 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 1: his henchmen to like move documents around and move them 118 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: from like house to house. What I'm saying is not 119 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 1: that the raids shouldn't go the way that they do, 120 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: but let's have the same energy for everybody, is what 121 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Because when we look at the danger that 122 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: people cause, Donald Trump is an existential threat to our 123 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: democracy and global world order. So you should probably come 124 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: at him with the same fucking energy that you would 125 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: a terrorist, right, or the same energy that you would 126 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: a black man. Right. Do you know what I'm saying, Like, 127 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 1: because they're one and the same in America's justice system, right, 128 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: Like you were just guilty by virtue of being born black. 129 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: And this is not to say anything about Diddy, because 130 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: I do believe that he is absolutely guilty. But what 131 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: I'm saying is give everyone the same fucking energy, right, 132 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: give everyone the same energy and showcase the threat that 133 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: all people that you're investigating have. Right. And So when 134 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 1: I saw you know, this split screen in my mind 135 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: of like what happened at mar A Lago and what happened, 136 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: you know, in Diddy's homes, Like, I was just like, 137 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: It's like, what else can you say besides outdone? What 138 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: else can you say? Right? But it was just ridiculous 139 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: because I'm like, oh, do we really think that he 140 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: is Like did he you know, inside an insurrection? Do 141 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 1: you think that there may be armed people inside of 142 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: his play? Do you know? What I'm saying? Like, Donald 143 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: Trump is more of a threat and should be treated 144 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: as such, because if you want to not put politics 145 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: into every situation, then treat everybody that's under federal investigation 146 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: the same fucking way, with the same fucking energy. Right. So, 147 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: so Donald Trump is getting a sixty percent reduction in 148 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: his bond, do you do that for poor black and 149 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: brown people that are sent to rikers because they can't 150 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: afford their bail. No, you just send them to fucking 151 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: rikers and close the door, whether they are innocent or guilty. 152 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: If they can't come up with the money that's on them, 153 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: they're in prison in that fucking hellhole. By the way, 154 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: that was in the news this week because they have 155 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 1: over seven hundred lawsuits against rikers for sexual violence, assault, 156 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: battery and all of these things from people, particularly women 157 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: who were inside of the system and were abused by 158 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: the guards that were there. And New York is only 159 00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: giving you a year upon your release to file suit, 160 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: So you don't really give a fuck honestly about the 161 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: trauma that was incurred by these women at the hands 162 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: of the state, because there's like you're not providing them 163 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 1: with the same statutory limitations as other heinous crimes. Nonetheless, folks, 164 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: I say all that to say that our systems just 165 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: work exactly how they were meant to work. And it's 166 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: just when it becomes so blatant is when I'm just 167 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: so like outdone, you know, as some days I'm just 168 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: like fucking lie to me, do you know what I'm saying? 169 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: Make like, make pretend that the justice system is actually 170 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: works equally for everyone instead of it being so overt 171 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 1: in its discrimination and preferential treatment for those that are wealthy, 172 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: white and straight right, like, give me a fucking break, 173 00:11:53,800 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 1: Which brings me to the now firing of Ronom mcdadel 174 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: from NBC News, given the entire revolt that happened with 175 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 1: the biggest stars on that network, beginning with Chuck Todd 176 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: and then went you know, to everyone else, Nicole Wallace, 177 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: Rachel Maddow, you know, Joy Reid and others. And here's 178 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: what I will say, which is that these news outlets 179 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: and now the stories are coming out to say, like 180 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,439 Speaker 1: who was in charge of the hiring, who gave the okay? 181 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: And let's say there is no scapegoat. All of the 182 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: fucking people in the c suite courted Roni McDaniel, courted 183 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: the conservative base, and all of them signed off on 184 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: it thinking that it was a great idea because they 185 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: have no scruples, they have no fucking morals, and journalism 186 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 1: is dead. And for whatever fucking reason why mainstream media 187 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: can't get it through their thick fucking skulls that the 188 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: people that watch Fox are not coming to MF NBC. 189 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 1: They're not coming to NBC News because you are the 190 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: devil to them, right, as evidence by all of the 191 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 1: people that go on Fox to lament your liberal networks. 192 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: So you think by bringing in a fucking election denier 193 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: and somebody that applauded January sixth and carried the water 194 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: for Donald Trump to the extent that she changed her 195 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: fucking name because he didn't like it, that you think 196 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: that somehow this star and I use that with fucking 197 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: quotation marks that he got rid of so that he 198 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: could put his daughter in place to turn the RNC 199 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: into his own piggybank, that she was gonna draw in views. 200 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: Miss me with it, like, it's so fucking stupid. It's 201 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: such a poor decision. And that's what mainstream media does. 202 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: It's just make one poor decision after the next, over 203 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 1: and over and over a fucking again. And this is why, 204 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 1: like folks are always like in my comment section, people 205 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: who who are either new to following me or what 206 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: have you, and they're like, oh, you know, you should 207 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: have your own TV show, blah blah. I will never 208 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: have my own TV show on anybody's cable news outlet. 209 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: And why is that. Because I've seen behind the curtain, 210 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: I know what they're looking for, and namely, it ain't 211 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: somebody with my fucking complexion. They'd like to have maybe 212 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 1: one or two people on the payroll so that they 213 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: don't get called out as being racist. But if you 214 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: look and you see where the majority of people of 215 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: color are on that network, it's on the weekend, right, 216 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: so that the whole week until you get to joy 217 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: Read at seven pm is all white. And yes, they 218 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: will have the sprinkling of people of color that will 219 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: come in as unpaid labor, right, but do you think 220 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: that they're hiring anybody. Do you think that they're rolling 221 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: out large six figure salaries. Do you think that they're 222 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 1: giving anybody a show or a go. No, they don't, right, 223 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 1: because they don't invest in people of color, even though 224 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: that is the largest audience of people that watches. They 225 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 1: don't actually want that audience. Remember when, and maybe you 226 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 1: all don't remember this, but there was a time like 227 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 1: in the early nineties when all the rappers and frankly, 228 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: if you live in New York, this is just a staple, 229 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: but everyone was wearing Timberland, right, like Timbland boots Timberland 230 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 1: clothing blah blah, and then the fucking CEOs of Timbaland 231 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: came out and said that we don't want these black 232 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: people wearing our clothes. Right, Like you had an entire 233 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:47,479 Speaker 1: market of people that made your shit fly and mainstream, 234 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 1: and then you come out and say that you don't 235 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: want these type of people wearing your clothes. Right, That's 236 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: basically what cable news does with black and brown commentators. 237 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: It's like and with black and with their black and 238 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: brown audience. You can watch us and give us ratings, 239 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: but like m we're not going to really cater to you. 240 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: And so it's always laughable to me when you hear 241 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: people talk about the liberal media. There is no liberal media, right, 242 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: Like there's media that doesn't lie to your face, right, 243 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: Like there are people that go on there that don't 244 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: lie to your face. But like you think that these 245 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: executives give a fuck, they absolutely don't. And they tell 246 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: you that by virtue of who they have on air, 247 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 1: and they tell you who they value by who they pay. 248 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: Now people will say to me, well why do you 249 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: go on Well, one, I don't make a living going 250 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: on TV. Again, I'm on paid, But why do I 251 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: go on because I have a message right that I 252 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: want to share with larger audiences. But I have become 253 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: very very particular about who shows I go on and 254 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 1: when I go on, And that is very different than 255 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,840 Speaker 1: ten years ago. When I used to say yes to everything. 256 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: It didn't matter if it was a holiday, it didn't matter, 257 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 1: if I already had plans. It didn't matter because I 258 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: was trying to chase the unicorn of contributorship right. And 259 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: then after a few years, when I realized it wasn't 260 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,959 Speaker 1: ever happening, but I saw all of these other people 261 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: who were white around me getting these really lucrative deals, 262 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: I was like, well, okay, I'm going to do my 263 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: own shit, which is why I have my own shows. 264 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: But anytime that I think that it is important to get, 265 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 1: you know, a bigger audience, or just you know, tell 266 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: the truth, or I'm invited on a colleague show somebody 267 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: whose voice I value, then you will see me on 268 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 1: do you know what I'm saying? But it used to 269 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 1: be an everyday, all day type of it didn't matter 270 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: when I was asked. I was always going to tap 271 00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: dance and say the yes, right, because that's how they 272 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: get you into thinking that if you say no, then 273 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: they won't ask you again, and then that elusive deal 274 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: will never come. Well it never comes, you know for 275 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: a majority of people. And then when you do get 276 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: a deal or a show and you don't follow along 277 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,919 Speaker 1: and you don't you know, go along with the flow, 278 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: you get fired, right and no one comes to your aid. 279 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 1: Let's just say that, so you know, Cable News. This 280 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 1: is why I say I am so appreciative, particularly of 281 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: the Patreon supporters. You all have allowed me to continue 282 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: to do my work independently, to do my work and 283 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: be able to know that, like I can make a 284 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 1: living right saying what I want to say, how I 285 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: want to say it, and where I want to say it. 286 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,360 Speaker 1: And I have learned a lot from this media business. 287 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: And it's not all good, do you know what I'm saying, 288 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: But like it's necessary not in order to continue to 289 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 1: do what you do, but do it in a way 290 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 1: that makes sense for you. And the decisions that they 291 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 1: make will continue to raise eyebrows because they don't care 292 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: about the audience that watches these shows. And lastly, folks, 293 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,000 Speaker 1: I will close out with the collapse of the Francis 294 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: Scott key Bridge in Baltimore and the tragedy of the 295 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: lives lost of the workers who you know were on 296 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 1: that bridge. And I really want to talk about again 297 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: the racism and just like the blatant racism that Brandon 298 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 1: Scott and Wesmore Wesmore being the governor of Maryland, brand 299 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: and Scott being the mayor of Baltimore received on social 300 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:57,239 Speaker 1: media by MAGA and on their bullshit networks, referring to 301 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: them as the DEI mayor and governor. And it's it's like, 302 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 1: I appreciate black Twitter so fucking much from snatching DEI 303 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: that term and turning it into a fucking joke and 304 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: exactly making it very clear what these motherfuckers mean when 305 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 1: they say DEI, which is that they want to say 306 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: the N word. Do you know what I'm saying, Like 307 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: that's their new word, it's woke or it's dei, But 308 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: what they want to say is the N word. We 309 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: don't want any N words here, right, That's basically what 310 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,760 Speaker 1: the governor of Alabama said, Oh, no DEI over here 311 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 1: in Idaho, right, no N words over here? And do 312 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: you know, like when people show you who they are, 313 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: like fucking believe them and stop pretending that you don't 314 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 1: know where these people's heart and minds lie. And so 315 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 1: thank god for black Twitter, and thank god for Brandon 316 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 1: Scott who doesn't really care about the hate. Right. Do 317 00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, Black people are going 318 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: to continue to ache fucking regardless. We're going to continue 319 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: to be excellent and beautiful and successful and brilliant regardless. 320 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: Do you know why? Because it's in our DNA. Because 321 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: we always have been.
