Welcome to Selective Ignorance, 13 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: a production of The Black Effect Podcast Network and Iart Radio. 14 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: All right, all right, y'all, welcome back to another episode 15 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,879 Speaker 1: of Selective Ignorance with Mandy B. That's me where I 16 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: remind you weekly that minded some of your business and 17 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: self care, but minding all of it, well, that's just 18 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: being uninformed. This week we are diving at first into 19 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: the hot tub of public outrage and I love these 20 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: type of episodes because we are really getting into everything 21 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: current that had y'all bothered, So everything from pop culture 22 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: which is melting down, the music landscape, which is always messy, 23 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,559 Speaker 1: and somehow in between celebrity think pieces and TikTok discussions, 24 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: we've circled right back to gender roles in patriarchy. Apparently 25 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: the internet is debating what makes a woman motherly, because 26 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 1: heaven forbid a working, successful woman not spend twenty four 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 1: hours a day in an apron making cast roles and 28 00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: smiling through exhaustion. And yet while we're questioning the patriarchy, 29 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: we got to talk about how outrage around domestic violence 30 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: feels a bit selective. When it's a man, pitchforks, bring 31 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: it out, he is done for the account. When it's 32 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: a woman, however, suddenly it's complicated and contextual, and no 33 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: one seems to matter. Why does the empathy curve shift 34 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: like that? We're getting into it, and speaking of complicated, 35 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: we've got another story this week of a woman who 36 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: is now being to blame for the death of a rapper, 37 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: and of course it is leaning back to whether or 38 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: not he deserves it quote unquote or not due to 39 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: his history of domestic violence. It's sad, it's tragic. I'm 40 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: gonna go ahead and just throw the trigger warning there 41 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: because we get into it, and then of course we 42 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 1: can't end without a little bit of mess. And y'all 43 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: know she is one of my favorites. I love Ari Lennox, 44 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: But girl, we all kind of just want you to 45 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: stick to the music. Because Ari Lenox decided to share 46 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: her unfiltered thoughts on Martin and Bernie Mack and the 47 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: folks are heated. Is she just keeping it real or 48 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: is she doing the absolute most? But also, is all 49 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: comedy ties to things that are gonna offend people? Is 50 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: colorism always a topic of discussion with us? By the way, 51 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: we're also leaning into rap lyrics. I'm gonna leave it there. 52 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: That's just a little tease. We've got a lot to impact, 53 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: So grab your tea, yo coffee, yo wine, keep your judgment, 54 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: and remember just because it's selective ignorance doesn't mean we're 55 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: not paying attention.

You know what's crazy. Migos 173 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: wasn't bad. However, Migos was late and Baby they opened 174 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: up for Drake. So the last time I saw Migos, 175 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 1: they were on tour with Drake. Saw them here at 176 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: State Farm. Baby in the middle of the set because 177 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: State Farm don't play and I guess this was before 178 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,599 Speaker 1: Drake was willing to pay the late fees. Nigga in 179 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,839 Speaker 1: the middle of they set, music cut off and they 180 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 1: literally had to usher them off the stage. Half of 181 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: their performance was cut cause niggas wanted to get on 182 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: stage late. Now don't know there was three of them. 183 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 1: Don't know which one was late. If I had to guess, 184 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: I'm guessing Offset. Because he gives Diva, you would guess Quevo. 185 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 4: I wouldn't guess Offset. 186 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: Okay, maybe the only reason why I would guess Quovo 187 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: is now he's doing country music, which means he might 188 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: lean into more white instead. That motherfucker be all time 189 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: he's trying to leave more toys. 190 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 4: I feel like he was the group. 191 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: No, I think he looked the best, which is why 192 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: people listed him as the Beyonce.

You know what I mean? Like they're. 262 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 5: Not like. 263 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: But like but like they're doing these intimate like hey, 264 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: come see us at the SOHO house members only. 265 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 3: The stars and they're superstars, like like like to. 266 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 1: Be fair and this is no flex or no shade. 267 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 1: But me as a podcaster, horrible decisions, decisions decisions. When 268 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: I tour, I'm doing the same rooms as a lot 269 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: of these artists, right So for me, when we're looking 270 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: at what a star is right now, and even we'll 271 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: get into the topic of domestic violence later, but I 272 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: don't know, he's just he's a fucking star. He's a 273 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 1: fucking star, and he's he's him, He's him. So when 274 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: I say the Internet is fake, it's to lean into 275 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: the fact that all of the outrage that we see 276 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 1: on the Internet, it's not translating because baby, they was 277 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: in them seats two nights in a row, and then 278 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: he he did Philly two nights before that. He just 279 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 1: sold out euro Football stadium. These are football stadiums. And 280 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: so even when we lean into what we're what I 281 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: brought up Beyonce, but Kendrick got sizza. Let's be very clear, 282 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna say it hot tape. Kendrick not doing 283 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 1: that without Sizza. Sizza not doing that without Kendrick. I 284 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: don't think so that I'm telling you, and this is 285 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 1: why I say it. I went and saw Sizza last year. 286 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: She sold out MSG two or three nights in a row, Sizza. 287 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: So I don't think there's enough respect on Sissa's impact 288 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: on that stadium tour that Kendrick is doing Kendrick Kendrick, 289 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: the way he's dropped albums, the way he's not as 290 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: mainstream we see rappers are not selling out stadiums, that 291 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: Nigga could not do a stadium tour without Sissm. 292 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 4: I don't think that. I think he would do it 293 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 4: without siss only because from from the circus that I 294 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 4: was in. Even when they found out that he was 295 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 4: doing it and he he had his on it, it 296 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 4: was like question like why I brings his own well first. 297 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: Off, tde clearly, But that's what I think she now 298 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 1: has transcended. I think R and B she's a pop star, 299 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,880 Speaker 1: for sure, she has records like she is a pop star. 300 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 4: I'm not doubting that. But I just think especially with 301 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 4: the last what has it been two years now or 302 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 4: last year that Kendrick Lamar had right, I think he 303 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 4: sells all stadiums. 304 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 1: I think I think we all were fine watching him 305 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: in a stadium at super Bowl. I don't think people 306 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: care to spend those tickets at what and if they do, 307 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 1: it's not enough to fill up a stadium by himself. 308 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: Like again, back to what we were seeing over the 309 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: last year two years of rap music in general. These 310 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: niggas not sell They start, they thought they could do arenas, 311 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: those tours got canceled. Then you have like the Terminal 312 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: fives in New York, you have like the kind of 313 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: what five five thousand, the mid size joints. They're not 314 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: selling those out, so they have to go to the small. 315 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: They're back. We don't get We don't get niggas in 316 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: the clubs no more because club's not making money because 317 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 1: people not buying bottles.

Bro. 525 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:46,480 Speaker 1: My question for one, because I'm aware of not only 526 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: mental health disorders but narcissism. So I would genuinely want 527 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,159 Speaker 1: to know if his mind around believing he could actually 528 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: run for president. I would want to know, like if 529 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: he actually thought you had a fighting chance and why 530 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: I would want him to explain why he thought he 531 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 1: would make a better president than anyone else. Tell me 532 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: the question you would ask R.

So if that's true, we can't erase 539 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 4: what happened, right, what are some signs if you can? 540 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 4: Because I don't even know if he took ownership of 541 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,160 Speaker 4: this right. So one I want him to take ownership 542 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 4: of what he did. 543 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 2: Right. 544 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 4: And if we can teach anybody in the world who 545 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 4: might go through something and see the what are the 546 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 4: telltale signs that they're going down this road?

And this 714 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 1: is why I like, and we're going to get into 715 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 1: the domestic violence portion of what's been being talked about 716 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 1: over the last two three weeks now. But when I 717 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: saw this clip, I was like, okay, because this is 718 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:44,360 Speaker 1: the debate right now online in terms of what consequences 719 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: are justified when you're not going through the justice system. 720 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:51,240 Speaker 1: How should we do what is it called kind of vigilant? 721 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: How should we show up as vigilantes essentially and and 722 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,399 Speaker 1: administer those consequences to people who who do fucked up shit? 723 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, Unfortunately, I do think that people learning extremes, right, 724 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 4: So my, my, my, uh, my examples be extreme a lot, 725 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 4: but because that's what you understand, and that's what you 726 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 4: were learning, because a lot of times people people don't 727 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 4: They don't understand that actions until it's something that changes 728 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 4: that life, right, because you could continue to do things 729 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 4: over and over again, make the same mistake until it's 730 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 4: something that jeopardizes your life, and your life is online. 731 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 4: I don't so I don't agree with I don't agree 732 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 4: with that, but I can I just acknowledge that that's 733 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,439 Speaker 4: where we are in our life and we've been there, right, 734 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 4: So when I think about the things that's happening, it's like, 735 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 4: it's not gonna take.

You just yeah, you take somebody's life 750 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 4: so you can die. You don't have to live with it. 751 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: No, I'm not gonna lie.

I watch porn. These 759 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 1: niggas doing porn and dropping it. They're making money on 760 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: the only fans while in jail, like jail right there, 761 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,839 Speaker 1: niggas got halbachi in jail. Jail don't even look like 762 00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:55,760 Speaker 1: it's And of course I've never been there, so sorry. 763 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 1: Someone's like, no, jail real hard. But to me, there's 764 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:01,280 Speaker 1: not enough suffer bring in jail for me to feel 765 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,760 Speaker 1: like if you've done a big enough crime that jail 766 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: is a good enough consequence for certain people. 767 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 4: I've never like been upstairs and got a sign to 768 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 4: a room, but I was arrested a few times, right, 769 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 4: so when I'm not a few times I think no, 770 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 4: when I think about what you just said, right right, 771 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 4: you see people watching TV, watching movie, But I don't 772 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 4: think I think they are nominalies. I don't think that's 773 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 4: the overarching theme of like when people go to jail. 774 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,680 Speaker 4: People go to jail, they lose their mind. People go 775 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 4: to jail, they uh uncomfortable predicaments, Like people go to 776 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 4: jail and they're really in bad situations. I think that's 777 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 4: the majority what we see. Of course we see it 778 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 4: from now and again, but I don't think that's the 779 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,959 Speaker 4: entire entirety of what people experience. 780 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: It, Right, But what even you saying that as I'm 781 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,240 Speaker 1: listening to you say, people lose their minds here, people 782 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 1: do this here? Do you know where I see that 783 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: happening outside of jail too? 784 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 4: Sure? 785 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 1: So like niggas like, which is why so many people 786 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 1: are habitual offenders, right. They constantly go back because there's 787 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 1: a better life for them in jail than there is 788 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: in the real life, where you have to get a job, 789 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 1: you gotta work, you gotta pay your bills on time, 790 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: you have to show up as a citizen with actual 791 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,879 Speaker 1: responsibility in the jail, nigga, your food coming, you got 792 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:07,839 Speaker 1: bed to sleep in, you gotta roof over your head. 793 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 1: And so when I say there's certain crimes where that's 794 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 1: not enough suffering, that's not enough consequence. It's why my 795 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 1: question to you is when you when I when I 796 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,040 Speaker 1: listen to this clip, you literally stopped at hospital. But 797 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 1: I also see it's because you don't believe in the 798 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 1: death penalty. You don't believe a life for a life. 799 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 4: It's no, no, no, no, no, I'm not saying that, like 800 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 4: because I just think it should be worse, and I might. 801 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 1: What is worse than not being here anymore? 802 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 3: But he thinks suffering, the suffering they're living with it, yes, suffering, Like. 803 00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 1: These niggas don't be they don't be sad or guilty. 804 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 4: There's so many people. 805 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: There's some people that do. But I take so fine. 806 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: Kill the niggas that ain't got any empathy, Kill the lack. 807 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,359 Speaker 1: Kill the lack of empathy as motherfuckers out here, because 808 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: there are people that will take a life and. 809 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,800 Speaker 4: Be like, Okay, yeah, I did it, yeah and again. 810 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,439 Speaker 4: And it's not the fact about taking a life, it's 811 00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,080 Speaker 4: just that again you ask me the questions that I 812 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 4: asking people. It's to learn it to teach people, like 813 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,280 Speaker 4: because if you keep sending people to jail and kids 814 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,720 Speaker 4: see that, it's like you just said, it's TV's in jails. 815 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,839 Speaker 4: People are they working in jail, they having their way 816 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 4: in jail. So it's like, what are the consequences of 817 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 4: taking somebody life? There is none, it seems like, And honestly, 818 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 4: like and I'm gonna be I'm gonna be real with it, 819 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 4: and people might educated whatever. I think that's the consequence, Like, 820 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:25,319 Speaker 4: that's the price of freedom. Think about it, like, what's the. 821 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: Price of freedom? 822 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,959 Speaker 4: Everything? Like you murdering somebody, like doing whatever you want. 823 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 4: Because we free, we can do whatever we want and 824 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 4: people and people take advantage of that in a negative 825 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 4: way and I hate that. So it's like, yo, we 826 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 4: have to learn. How can we learn? The only way 827 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 4: you can learn is that the highest extreme. So again, no, 828 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 4: I'm not pro people losing their lives, but if that's 829 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 4: what it takes for our world to be a better 830 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 4: place twenty years from now, that's what we gotta do, 831 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 4: and I'm willing. I'm willing to do that. It is 832 00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 4: what it is. Like we had a conversation and uh no, 833 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 4: it's not. 834 00:39:53,680 --> 00:40:00,799 Speaker 1: Okay, okay, You're like, well, I he did want to 835 00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:05,320 Speaker 1: lean into with this conversation what the timeline has really 836 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 1: been talking about. There are two current domestic violence situations 837 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:13,000 Speaker 1: that had people in a tizzy, one including kirk Frost 838 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:18,320 Speaker 1: and Rashida's family, where Kirkfrost's daughter was dating a rapper 839 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: by the name of Tee Hood who was recently shot 840 00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:26,560 Speaker 1: by allegedly At this point, he has been taken Another suspect, 841 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: the daughter's brother, who allegedly was called to protect her 842 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:35,399 Speaker 1: as she was experiencing a relationship with domestic violence. Her 843 00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: best friend has come forward, willing to risk her friendship 844 00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:45,839 Speaker 1: with Kirkfrost's daughter, sharing videos of him beating on her. Now, 845 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:49,240 Speaker 1: this didn't happen, I guess the week of his killing, 846 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: but this was to show that there was a long 847 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:56,279 Speaker 1: standing relationship in terms of him beating her. She also 848 00:40:56,480 --> 00:41:02,040 Speaker 1: leaked text messages between her friend, the girl who was 849 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 1: dating Tea Hood, and Tea Hood's mother where she was like, Yo, 850 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 1: he's laying his hands on me again. Come get his things. 851 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: And it was multiple threads where she was expressing that 852 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 1: he was laying hands on her. What I see in 853 00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:18,439 Speaker 1: the comments are people like rest in hell. He's where 854 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: he needs to be. It was bound for him to 855 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 1: end up on a shirt. There's also another woman that 856 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: he was allegedly involved with romantically, by the name of Vanessa, 857 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,399 Speaker 1: who also was getting her ass beat by this man. 858 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,840 Speaker 1: And so we've had this conversation here on selective ignorance. 859 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 1: Before I actually might have doubled down on a take 860 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 1: I had earlier, but it was interesting because now her 861 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,360 Speaker 1: brother is being arrested for murder, She's lost her boyfriend, 862 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,719 Speaker 1: and it's unfortunate because the other part of this is 863 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 1: people saying, well, she kept going back, and so in 864 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 1: terms of this, before we get to Shakari Richardson as well, 865 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 1: before we leave here, I would like to know your 866 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 1: thoughts on stepping in here, if men should maybe not, 867 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:13,280 Speaker 1: if we as a society are okay with other people 868 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 1: saying he deserved to die because he was beating a woman. 869 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: I just think there's so many ways that the public 870 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 1: currently is outraged, right because his family is specifically saying, well, 871 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: he wasn't beating her ass this night, where's the video 872 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 1: of that, which is also sick. The family is like 873 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,000 Speaker 1: these videos he had on a bubble best, which means 874 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,879 Speaker 1: it was cold outside. Show us the video of him 875 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:38,919 Speaker 1: laying his hands on her the night he got shot 876 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: and killed. Then there's also the conversation of overkill. He 877 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:45,879 Speaker 1: was shot seven times, five in the back. So there's 878 00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: just so many different conversations about this particular thing. I 879 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: just want to know your thoughts overall on what we're 880 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:54,800 Speaker 1: seeing the outrage be with this particular case. 881 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,000 Speaker 4: So I can't really speak to this case. I haven't 882 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 4: really seen too much about it. I've seen the dude past, 883 00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 4: but when it comes to like domestic violence, I came 884 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 4: up in a space or from a neighborhood where you 885 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 4: mind your business, right, But at the same time, I'm 886 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 4: a person, right right, I'm a man, so like I 887 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 4: also in that same place, we was taught to protect 888 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 4: children and women. So it's like at anytime that you 889 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 4: see something like that, you know, just from my perspective, 890 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:23,280 Speaker 4: it's like, yo, like you protect the woman that's a hand. However, 891 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 4: I I'm not mad at the people who don't, because 892 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:28,439 Speaker 4: we just seen somebody in DC got killed for trying 893 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 4: to step in. Yeah, just happened, right, So it's like 894 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 4: for anybody that doesn't do that, I understand why they 895 00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 4: wouldn't or why they would be scared to Uh, It's 896 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 4: just I don't know if I could do that, I 897 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:42,720 Speaker 4: would just have to pray that my life would be spared, 898 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 4: if that makes sense. 899 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 1: I know you, but you would step in, you. 900 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 4: Know, off top, I say, yeah, But I hate hypothetical 901 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:51,360 Speaker 4: questions because everybody said your best friend to say I 902 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 4: take bullet for you until a gun is pulled out. 903 00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Whatever they're going right in 904 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 1: front of me. 905 00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 4: Every I under saying. People always say. People always say 906 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 4: what they would do in the situation, then the situation happened, 907 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 4: and then they don't do nothing right. So I'm trying 908 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 4: to be careful with the hypotheticals, right, I don't like, 909 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 4: I don't, I don't know. 910 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll be honest for me with this. Because 911 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 1: Tea Hood is a local rapper of Atlanta. A lot 912 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: of my friends were mourning his death, and clearly the 913 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 1: day it happened, I reached out to each person I 914 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 1: saw that was that was mourning him because I hate 915 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,040 Speaker 1: my friends that have to keep dealing with grief.

I'll be like, 927 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: when someone really good dies, I literally be like, do 928 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:04,400 Speaker 1: you know how many other motherfuckers don't need to be here?

I don't believe that, like somebody 939 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 4: in that situation should die, right. I do believe they 940 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 4: should get ass for sure, maybe consecutively for ninety days, 941 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 4: one hundred and twenty. I do believe that. I'm not 942 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:36,480 Speaker 4: gonna lie to you. I don't think they should die 943 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:37,759 Speaker 4: because at the end of the day, that could be 944 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 4: a sickness. It could be an illness that he needs 945 00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 4: to learn from it and can get better from him. 946 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: When it's probably not. He probably got his ass beat 947 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 1: by a few niggas, which is why you know he 948 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,040 Speaker 1: can't beat no motherfuckers, so he got to beat on 949 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 1: bitches like there was just a video. There was a 950 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 1: TikTok and it shows the type of guy that beats 951 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 1: on women.

The same way we 988 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:57,280 Speaker 1: talk about Meg the Stallion not wanting to pursue charges, 989 00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:59,400 Speaker 1: and I know, yes there was a weapon involved, but 990 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 1: it's still abuse. The way that megde Stallion did not 991 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:07,920 Speaker 1: want to pursue charges on Tory Lane but the state 992 00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:12,279 Speaker 1: stepped in is the same way for me. We have 993 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 1: to have the same reaction to women who want to 994 00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 1: publicly lay their hands on men, because had that motherfucker 995 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 1: reacted in the airport, guess who would have been his 996 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,880 Speaker 1: ass in jail probably and she would have been free. 997 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 1: I think also, it's disgusting and I don't know if 998 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:35,279 Speaker 1: you want to I don't know what clip you inserted here. 999 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:40,320 Speaker 1: I want to say, it is disgusting. You male podcasters, 1000 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 1: you women podcasters, you big platform to ass motherfucking podcasters 1001 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 1: for applauding him for having the restraint in this case. 1002 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 1: I don't think that it is great, nor is it healthy, 1003 00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 1: nor is it the messaging we need to be putting 1004 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 1: out that he should applaud men who take abuse and 1005 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: don't react. Because let's be very clear, it came out 1006 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,520 Speaker 1: in both sides that that's what happened with Chris Brown. 1007 00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:13,880 Speaker 1: Rihanna came out and said she was whooping his ass first. 1008 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,839 Speaker 1: And I just really hate, and I've talked about this 1009 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:19,400 Speaker 1: even with my friends. I really hate that there is 1010 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 1: just like this leniency of well, huh, he could take it. 1011 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 1: Men should not be punching bags for women, and it 1012 00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: shouldn't be applauded that a man doesn't react. Here's my 1013 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:35,360 Speaker 1: hetake not ladies, if you hit a nigga, he should 1014 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 1: be able to hit your ass the fuck back, and nobody. 1015 00:49:38,200 --> 00:49:41,560 Speaker 1: It cancels each other out. It cancels each other out. 1016 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:43,719 Speaker 1: Nobody should even at this point go to jail or 1017 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:44,840 Speaker 1: you both go to jail for battery. 1018 00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:50,120 Speaker 4: So when we're talking about this, this is not a 1019 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 4: just chance that's taking. So let's let's break it down 1020 00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 4: right at the end of the day. I don't know 1021 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:55,759 Speaker 4: how y'all think, but at the end of the day, 1022 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 4: we talking about people, and I think the overarching goal 1023 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 4: should be for people to be better. So, yeah, it 1024 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,400 Speaker 4: shouldn't be promoted to take violence from a woman. No, 1025 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 4: it shouldn't be promoted to take violence, but it should 1026 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 4: be applauded for you to have restraint. No, I do 1027 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:13,560 Speaker 4: think that shit like you should, because restraint is saying 1028 00:50:13,600 --> 00:50:22,360 Speaker 4: that even when we're talking about grace, right, I'm when 1029 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,240 Speaker 4: we talk about grace, right, we're talking about not doing 1030 00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 4: something even when when you have, even when you can, 1031 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,640 Speaker 4: even when the decision to do is understood and it's okay, right, 1032 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 4: Grace is not doing it in that in that moment, right, 1033 00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:39,840 Speaker 4: So I think it should be applauded for a person 1034 00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,480 Speaker 4: to not I think Martin Luther King's that the right hate. 1035 00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 4: Hate can't drive out hate. Only love can do that, right, 1036 00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:46,360 Speaker 4: and that's the only way we're going to get to 1037 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,439 Speaker 4: a place of being better individuals. So when you see 1038 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 4: a person not retaliating in the moment where he can 1039 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:53,680 Speaker 4: and he's justified, I think that should be applauded and 1040 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:56,240 Speaker 4: more people should be like that. Now, it shouldn't be promoted, 1041 00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:57,280 Speaker 4: I think being promoted. 1042 00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 1: And well, if you're applauding on a public platform, you're 1043 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: promoting this action to take place for men. Hear me 1044 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:09,319 Speaker 1: out too, as I'm listening to you. When I think 1045 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 1: of how we could be better as a community, specifically 1046 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,920 Speaker 1: for how we can create safer spaces for men, right, 1047 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,440 Speaker 1: you saying it should be applauded that a man has 1048 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 1: restraint for getting beat on by a woman. Reminds me 1049 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 1: of why there's so many men that don't come out 1050 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: about their sexual assault. 1051 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:26,560 Speaker 2: That framing is also restraint for not hitting. 1052 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:28,480 Speaker 1: No, But that's what I'm saying. So then do you 1053 00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 1: know where I go with that? When a man or 1054 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:36,719 Speaker 1: a boy gets molested, he's applauded for entering manhood, he's 1055 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:39,959 Speaker 1: applauded for having sex with a woman. Whether it's true 1056 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,480 Speaker 1: a lot a lot of men, no, And it's not good. 1057 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 1: But that's what I'm saying. It's not good that we 1058 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 1: are applauding the restraint of a man at the abuse 1059 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:53,280 Speaker 1: of women. Women should not be laying their hands on men, 1060 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,279 Speaker 1: and men should not be applauded for not reacting. No, 1061 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 1: humans should be getting beat on by their lover, by 1062 00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: a spouse, by like at all, and so for me 1063 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,560 Speaker 1: and so for me the same way, it's bad that 1064 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 1: we don't create that space for boys to share their 1065 00:52:08,640 --> 00:52:12,640 Speaker 1: sexual experiences when they're unhealthy. To me, it's the same 1066 00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 1: thing we're putting y'all in a prison to be abused, 1067 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,400 Speaker 1: because now we're applauding that ooh, thank you for not 1068 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 1: hitting the bitch back to me. It's it's what I. 1069 00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:24,879 Speaker 3: Don't think those I don't think those are apples that happen. Yeah, 1070 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 3: because the thing is like, because you can hear Jay 1071 00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,000 Speaker 3: saying it, like he agrees with the first part of it, 1072 00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,200 Speaker 3: like nobody should be getting hit, but then like the 1073 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 3: justifiable like when you know the bitch should get hit 1074 00:52:34,040 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 3: back and you know it should just be like. 1075 00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:38,839 Speaker 1: She won't, but she won't hit it ass again. Like 1076 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 1: that's the other part too, Like you have women that 1077 00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:45,040 Speaker 1: genuinely and and maybe this is the masculine realm were 1078 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 1: in currently, you have women that genuinely think they could 1079 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:51,839 Speaker 1: whoop a man's ass. And and this is why, it's 1080 00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 1: why I don't believe transmits should be in women's sports 1081 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 1: and vice versa. Bro, No you can't. 1082 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,759 Speaker 3: I'm just laughing at the bridge you cross. 1083 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:06,680 Speaker 1: Genetically, men are stronger, men are built differently biologically. 1084 00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:07,120 Speaker 4: So I don't want to be I don't want to 1085 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 4: be a contradiction. Right, So this is similar to my 1086 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:13,239 Speaker 4: first take. Do I believe that if more women got 1087 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 4: that ass whoop, it will happen less? Yeah, So it's 1088 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,359 Speaker 4: like if yeah, like you gotta learn more. 1089 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:29,720 Speaker 1: Women got their ass beat retaliate retaliation. 1090 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 4: They could learn. So it's again that's like I don't 1091 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:35,799 Speaker 4: believe that people should die. Like so me knowing better, 1092 00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 4: I don't believe that people should die. But it's still 1093 00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 4: that little ignorant boy in me that come from the hood, like, well, 1094 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:43,879 Speaker 4: maybe niggas this would it take for people to learn? Yes, 1095 00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:46,239 Speaker 4: I'm with that. So it's the same thing, but I'm 1096 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:50,160 Speaker 4: not like again, but me trying to better my mentality 1097 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:52,719 Speaker 4: or have the world be a better place. I do 1098 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 4: think that we should applaud the restraint because again, the 1099 00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 4: restraint in one and that's how I look at it, 1100 00:53:57,600 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 4: Like sometimes the way you do one thing is the 1101 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:01,359 Speaker 4: way you do everything. And the same restraint that you 1102 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:02,960 Speaker 4: take from not hitting no woman back is the same 1103 00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:04,880 Speaker 4: restrict that I'll take as a man. If you out 1104 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 4: in the street and somebody cuts you out, you walk away. 1105 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,320 Speaker 4: Like we're talking about emotional intelligence here. I know a 1106 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:12,279 Speaker 4: lot of times, a lot of times we from the hood, right, 1107 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,719 Speaker 4: I'm from the projects. A lot of men like me 1108 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,680 Speaker 4: lose our lives because we don't have we're not emotionally intelligent. 1109 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 4: More emotionally mature enough to just walk away and ignore something. 1110 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 4: So the fact that this man can have this happen, 1111 00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,319 Speaker 4: I don't think it should be happening to him. 1112 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:28,400 Speaker 1: I want us to treat humans like humans, and I don't. 1113 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:32,200 Speaker 1: I would never applaud a woman for staying in a 1114 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:35,880 Speaker 1: domestic viol no, but this is what I'm saying. The restraint, 1115 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: the fact that he didn't press charges, the fact that 1116 00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:42,600 Speaker 1: he didn't fight back as a man a lot, but 1117 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:47,919 Speaker 1: women aren't applauded for not fighting back for staying. It's like, bitch, 1118 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:52,760 Speaker 1: while you're still there. Men he's being applauded for the restraints, 1119 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:54,480 Speaker 1: don't care that he be saying because it's Chicago riches. 1120 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:56,880 Speaker 4: Let's break it down though. So I was in a 1121 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 4: long term releaship, right, and one thing I heard in 1122 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:03,239 Speaker 4: therapy money woman is I feel like the man in 1123 00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 4: this is analogy, I feel like the man step on 1124 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,399 Speaker 4: my foot, but then there's an upset when I yell. Right. 1125 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:10,799 Speaker 4: So in that situation, right hypothetical, let's say a really 1126 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 4: bad like your man cheats on you, some women think 1127 00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 4: that he deserves to get his ass smacked or whatever. 1128 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:19,080 Speaker 4: They understand that I'm applauding the woman who has restraint 1129 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:22,360 Speaker 4: enough to be cheated on, to walk away, to be disrespected, 1130 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:25,920 Speaker 4: quote unquote, not retaliate. I applaud that restraint. Do I 1131 00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 4: think she should be in that situation? 1132 00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 3: No? 1133 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:29,439 Speaker 4: Do I think that's an unfair situation to be in. Yes, 1134 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:31,520 Speaker 4: but I applaud you to have the restraint enough to 1135 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 4: not retaliate in a negative way. 1136 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 1: That's okay. I get where you're going, and I agree 1137 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:39,440 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I do agree cool 1138 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:43,479 Speaker 1: having restraint and not fighting back. All right, you can't fight, 1139 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:46,680 Speaker 1: you know, even with evil. We quoted MLKA, I don't know. 1140 00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 1: I was on the side of I was on the 1141 00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 1: side of Nigga, you know what I mean. So whatever 1142 00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:55,120 Speaker 1: little kumbaya shit you just said, heard you? I just 1143 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 1: I do believe like you should leave a situation without retaliation. Sure, 1144 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 1: but when you day to applaud someone for not only 1145 00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 1: not retaliating, but saying in in an abusive situation, I'm 1146 00:56:06,719 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 1: not here for now.

Let's get it from the top. 1166 00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:21,479 Speaker 1: I want. 1167 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 5: She don't wait? 1168 00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:28,439 Speaker 2: All right, so the put my nap on her neck. 1169 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 3: I want George Floyd all right? 1170 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:36,280 Speaker 1: Now, can we hear Steven Jackson's response to that? And 1171 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull up because before we start responding, let's 1172 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 1: see the people who are actually close to and related 1173 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:46,280 Speaker 1: to George Floyd what they have to say if you 1174 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:49,240 Speaker 1: while you pull that up, Jason, I'm gonna read the 1175 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 1: clip from the cousin and I think I might have 1176 00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 1: sent it to you. Jay. Yes, so George Floyd's and 1177 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 1: this comes from another Black Effect fan, Laura Le Rosa 1178 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 1: said Terrence Floyd, who is the brother of George Floyd. 1179 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:10,320 Speaker 1: This is his full statement. I believe it's inconsiderate. Sometimes 1180 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:13,600 Speaker 1: this generation doesn't pay attention to what they say. They 1181 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,560 Speaker 1: just say what they want to make a song and 1182 00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 1: just get on the charts and really feel like the 1183 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:21,200 Speaker 1: people listening will accept it because of who he is. 1184 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 1: It's really inconsiderate. You should think about what you're writing. 1185 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:26,440 Speaker 1: It may make sense to you, but think about the 1186 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:29,000 Speaker 1: impact to us. People are sending the clip to me. 1187 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 1: I want the line changed. Let my brother rest in peace. 1188 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 1: It disturbs the family's piece. There has to be a 1189 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:38,560 Speaker 1: better message behind any message of George Floyd's name so 1190 00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:42,440 Speaker 1: his legacy can live on beyond what Chauvin did to him. 1191 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:44,439 Speaker 1: And what did Stephen Jackson have to say? 1192 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:45,920 Speaker 2: Here was Stephen Jackson. 1193 00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 5: Clip should be doing?

I have 1208 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:37,680 Speaker 1: a hot take on it because this is the personification 1209 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:41,880 Speaker 1: of selective outrage. 1210 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 4: Yep. I was just that's funny as to say that, 1211 00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 4: look what I'm like, I'm looking for like other inappropriate 1212 00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 4: red lines. 1213 00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:50,360 Speaker 1: I looked it up. So speaking of let's start with 1214 00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,800 Speaker 1: your man meek Mill, because he was the most recent 1215 00:59:56,440 --> 01:00:00,120 Speaker 1: let's start with meek Mill. Now, it was interesting that 1216 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Stephen Jackson leaned into like, it's y'all era that are 1217 01:00:03,320 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 1: doing this well. Meek Mill actually in a record that 1218 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:11,120 Speaker 1: was released I want to say, within the last year, 1219 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:16,680 Speaker 1: it was called Don't Worry and in the track Meek 1220 01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 1: Mill raps. Yeah, and if I ever lack, I'm going 1221 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:24,680 Speaker 1: out with my chopper. It's another what the fuck? Oh look. 1222 01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 3: Jay? 1223 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 1: Now, now I get his family and things being being sad, right, 1224 01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:38,120 Speaker 1: but I would love to know, coming from the NBA, 1225 01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:43,439 Speaker 1: being a former champion, Steven Jackson's thoughts on a Meek 1226 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:45,720 Speaker 1: Mill and if you think he corny for using a 1227 01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 1: line like this. I want to continue on with the 1228 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 1: fact that rappers like Jadakiss, Tyler, the creator flow J 1229 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:58,000 Speaker 1: have all referenced nine to eleven and the attacks on that. 1230 01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 1: So let's be very clear on that. To you have 1231 01:01:02,240 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 1: Taler the creator, who, in his lyrics from Radicals from 1232 01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:13,120 Speaker 1: a twenty eleven song pretty much condoned terrorism and he 1233 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 1: trivialized nine to eleven. Uh. Flow J also referenced nine 1234 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:19,640 Speaker 1: to eleven, and mind you, there were thousands of thousands 1235 01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,800 Speaker 1: of families impacted on that, so again selective outrage. And 1236 01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 1: then I want to add one more only because luckily 1237 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:29,680 Speaker 1: that woman just died. But I don't know if anyone 1238 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:33,880 Speaker 1: seemed to have any type of beef for Little Wayne, 1239 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:37,840 Speaker 1: who in his twenty thirteen record wrapped that he would 1240 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:44,200 Speaker 1: beat that pussy up like im Mattil, something that we've 1241 01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:48,120 Speaker 1: literally known throughout our history the impact that it has 1242 01:01:48,200 --> 01:01:51,880 Speaker 1: had on us. And so for me, it's like, what 1243 01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 1: is slectively outraged at this? Because I guarantee that nigga 1244 01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 1: probably he was celebrating, so I slipped. 1245 01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:03,920 Speaker 2: To mind banging that little wing. 1246 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:08,000 Speaker 1: You feel me, he probably wrapped it that I wasn't 1247 01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 1: in the club line Listen, what was I in the 1248 01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 1: club in twenty thirteen?

And so when we look at hip hop 1314 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 1: as art, that's where you might have to remove the 1315 01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 1: sensitivity around the personal touch to either yourself or everyone else. 1316 01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:42,880 Speaker 1: Because Steven Jackson, I'm sure you have watched documentaries. I'm 1317 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,360 Speaker 1: sure you have gone to the movies and enjoyed or 1318 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 1: been entertained by something that took place that included death, 1319 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:53,320 Speaker 1: that included rape, that included things that are traumatic that 1320 01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:59,640 Speaker 1: somebody in real life has experienced. It's entertainable. Reminds me 1321 01:05:59,680 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 1: of it reminds me of comedy. 1322 01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 4: Not you, no, no, I didn't even know what we're 1323 01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 4: going to say. Runs me of comedy, like because that's 1324 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:14,360 Speaker 4: a space where it's I think it's like, it's okay, bro, 1325 01:06:14,440 --> 01:06:16,560 Speaker 4: It's a joke. That's what some people have darkenments, some 1326 01:06:16,560 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 4: people don't. So it's like when you said, I'm like, damn, 1327 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:21,440 Speaker 4: that's crazy. That's a great point. Like you smoked that, Mike, 1328 01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:23,440 Speaker 4: Thank you well. 1329 01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:25,760 Speaker 1: Last topic before we get out of here. Oh, y'all 1330 01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:27,760 Speaker 1: got a y'all got a nice little long episode this 1331 01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:31,320 Speaker 1: week before we get out of here, because you went 1332 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 1: into comedy. Ari Lenox recently damn not the signe already 1333 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:42,000 Speaker 1: with just the name mintioned. Ari Lenox has had a 1334 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:47,720 Speaker 1: lot to say about black classic TV comedies. She has 1335 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:52,440 Speaker 1: received backlash recently with her take on Martin regarding the 1336 01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:55,440 Speaker 1: jokes around Pam, which seemed to bother her. We don't 1337 01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:56,880 Speaker 1: have to play the clips. I think at this point 1338 01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,640 Speaker 1: you've kind of you kind of you're here familiar with it. Basically, 1339 01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:02,840 Speaker 1: she leaned into the jokes on Martin not being that 1340 01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:06,840 Speaker 1: funny because what it did was perpetuate colorism with the 1341 01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:09,600 Speaker 1: jokes on Pam and there wasn't enough on Gina, and 1342 01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:13,280 Speaker 1: it made people view black women as a as kind 1343 01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:17,360 Speaker 1: of the butt of the joke. Right. She also continued 1344 01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:21,120 Speaker 1: further to recently dark skinned women, dark skinned women, Yes, 1345 01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 1: dark skin black women I'm sorry. And then she recently 1346 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 1: doubled down on not only her Martin take, but she 1347 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:30,280 Speaker 1: also led to say that Bernie Mack made her uncomfortable 1348 01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:31,080 Speaker 1: with his. 1349 01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:34,440 Speaker 4: Jokes right now or could I guess. 1350 01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 1: Let's think, because Bernie Mack is the most recent I know, 1351 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:41,120 Speaker 1: the internet was yeah, I know, and rip Bernie Mack. 1352 01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:45,480 Speaker 1: So it's interesting now to even be bringing up with look, look. 1353 01:07:45,240 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 4: He's the goat. 1354 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:50,920 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, let me see what she what she 1355 01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:53,920 Speaker 1: actually said. She said, I love Bernie Mack, but some 1356 01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 1: of his jokes they made me uncomfortable. This comes after 1357 01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:02,880 Speaker 1: people recently critiqued her on her takes on the Martin 1358 01:08:02,960 --> 01:08:06,560 Speaker 1: Lawrence thing. The remark was part of a broader conversation 1359 01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:10,240 Speaker 1: about certain jokes from past decades feel out of step 1360 01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 1: with modern sensibilities. And I guess we can get into 1361 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 1: that too, because you know, for Lennox, it wasn't about 1362 01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:20,479 Speaker 1: erasing his legacy at all, but just acknowledging that comedy 1363 01:08:21,080 --> 01:08:23,680 Speaker 1: and culture does evolve. And she feels like a lot 1364 01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:27,280 Speaker 1: of shit that he said back then not. 1365 01:08:27,320 --> 01:08:32,720 Speaker 4: It today with these microphones man in the phone. It's 1366 01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 4: just it's unfortunate that you could take like a segment 1367 01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:38,800 Speaker 4: or a clip out of a whole conversation, and it erases, 1368 01:08:39,080 --> 01:08:42,120 Speaker 4: like the h the purpose of the conversation, if that 1369 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 4: makes sense right. For example, it takes out the context. 1370 01:08:45,520 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 4: For example, like Michelle Obama when she was talking about ESPN, Yeah, 1371 01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:53,320 Speaker 4: being housewives, and it wasn't really a shot at ESPN. 1372 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:55,200 Speaker 4: It was just like yo, like that's why they enjoyed 1373 01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:57,439 Speaker 4: doing what they're doing. So the context is taken out 1374 01:08:57,479 --> 01:08:59,519 Speaker 4: because you hit his one part. So what I will 1375 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:01,400 Speaker 4: say is I didn't hear the entire thing, but from 1376 01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:03,560 Speaker 4: what you me just using my brain, from what it 1377 01:09:03,600 --> 01:09:05,680 Speaker 4: sounds like, it sounded like it was a larger conversation. 1378 01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:09,280 Speaker 1: Well, this was her take following all of the outrage 1379 01:09:09,280 --> 01:09:10,840 Speaker 1: by the way, she doubled down on her take with 1380 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:14,439 Speaker 1: Martin Lawrence and then she I think because the response 1381 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 1: was it was comedy. He joked on everybody. She went 1382 01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:20,080 Speaker 1: to another comedian where it's like, well and some offic 1383 01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 1: shit made me uncomfortable too, Like this isn't just a 1384 01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:25,040 Speaker 1: jab at Martin and what it was on that show, 1385 01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:30,000 Speaker 1: but as a whole comedy specifically from our black brothers 1386 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:34,000 Speaker 1: have led to black women being uncomfortable when technically there's 1387 01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 1: a lot for black women, specifically dark women to fight over. 1388 01:09:37,000 --> 01:09:39,519 Speaker 4: Let's get into it, though. I think that space is 1389 01:09:39,600 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 4: needed because that's how we get better. 1390 01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:44,440 Speaker 1: That space comedy, no'space, Okay. 1391 01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:47,439 Speaker 4: The space for her to say that, because it's so 1392 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:50,000 Speaker 4: many other things that we can joke about, right, And yeah, 1393 01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:52,160 Speaker 4: although that was a joke, then I don't think it 1394 01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 4: should be deleted, but we need the space for her 1395 01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 4: to say that so we can understand new comics. Comedians 1396 01:09:57,400 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 4: can come and understand that. Bro, it's so many other 1397 01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:01,200 Speaker 4: things to joke about. He's a real product that we 1398 01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:03,280 Speaker 4: can fight, right. So I'm not I don't I don't 1399 01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:05,800 Speaker 4: take away from the history, but it was sayings back 1400 01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:08,000 Speaker 4: in the day where I used to hear old people saying, 1401 01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:09,920 Speaker 4: if it's grass on the field, play ball, if she 1402 01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:11,680 Speaker 4: old enough to cross the street. 1403 01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, he's a nasty, sad, very nasty. 1404 01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:16,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, and back then it was understood. But we need, 1405 01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:18,760 Speaker 4: we need to have a conversation so that kids coming 1406 01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 4: up understand that that's not okay, and what we was 1407 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:24,280 Speaker 4: learning wasn't okay. So yeah, we've seen that back then, 1408 01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:26,280 Speaker 4: and it was okay back then, but that same thought 1409 01:10:26,280 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 4: process is going to get you locked up now. 1410 01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:31,080 Speaker 1: So I'm not mad. He's Jay just said, you don't 1411 01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:33,920 Speaker 1: have a choice to be selectively ignorant with this, like 1412 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:35,040 Speaker 1: if you know better, do better. 1413 01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 3: Essentially, Yeah, yeah, I think, But I think also too 1414 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,760 Speaker 3: because it's a TV show, Like You're marrying comedy, which 1415 01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:45,759 Speaker 3: is powerful and of itself, and then TV which is powerful, 1416 01:10:45,800 --> 01:10:48,559 Speaker 3: and back then TV was super powerful because the Internet 1417 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 3: wasn't and we didn't have like the strongest emphasis on 1418 01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 3: our daily conversation. So then like to see repeatedly, week 1419 01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:58,200 Speaker 3: after week after week, the way that Martin joked against Pam, 1420 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,840 Speaker 3: which was her point. You know that she thought that 1421 01:11:00,840 --> 01:11:03,880 Speaker 3: that was like a bad message, and that because Gina's 1422 01:11:03,920 --> 01:11:05,679 Speaker 3: joke whose light sken was just she had a big head. 1423 01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you had jump about her weave. 1424 01:11:08,600 --> 01:11:11,360 Speaker 1: You had the same jokes on Living Single, you had 1425 01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:12,760 Speaker 1: like and for me the same way. 1426 01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:15,879 Speaker 3: Not this this was like hammering it to one character 1427 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 3: week by week by week. 1428 01:11:17,160 --> 01:11:18,800 Speaker 1: But they just want you know, they were doing they did. 1429 01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:20,559 Speaker 1: They joked on each other.

You're right. 1447 01:12:08,960 --> 01:12:13,840 Speaker 1: This is her expressing where certain content maybe pushed her 1448 01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:19,720 Speaker 1: to be more insecure with things because these are jokes 1449 01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:22,479 Speaker 1: and I'm just supposed to not internalize these And so 1450 01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:24,320 Speaker 1: you're right. I do like that your take on this 1451 01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:26,880 Speaker 1: is that, because you know everyone's take is old, Ari, 1452 01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:28,639 Speaker 1: get off the Internet. I thought I thought you were 1453 01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:31,280 Speaker 1: done with social media, but you're right. I think that 1454 01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:34,439 Speaker 1: everybody should be able to share when something has an 1455 01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:37,040 Speaker 1: impact on them. And if she's saying in her childhood 1456 01:12:37,280 --> 01:12:40,639 Speaker 1: those jokes on Pam made her feel more insecure about 1457 01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:42,880 Speaker 1: the color of her skin, that should be a topic 1458 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:45,320 Speaker 1: within our community. I agree. I'm not mad with that top. 1459 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:48,800 Speaker 4: My thing is, I just think, like ve smoking it, 1460 01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:51,479 Speaker 4: I'm trying to keep up with Mandy like crazy, I'm 1461 01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:56,439 Speaker 4: like that. I just think, like, but that was you said, 1462 01:12:56,479 --> 01:12:59,040 Speaker 4: that was our reality. That's what made it good because 1463 01:12:59,080 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 4: we were home cracking jokes with our friends. I don't 1464 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:05,360 Speaker 4: mean the jokes was okay, but you gotta learn that. 1465 01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:07,880 Speaker 4: So like, it's like both sides right, Like that was 1466 01:13:07,920 --> 01:13:09,880 Speaker 4: our experience. They should be they should be They should 1467 01:13:09,880 --> 01:13:12,080 Speaker 4: be able to televise our experience. So we make we 1468 01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:14,080 Speaker 4: feel seen, we feel hurt, like, oh, this is us. 1469 01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:15,760 Speaker 4: That's what makes it good. But at the same time, 1470 01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:18,040 Speaker 4: we need the space for people like all right, because 1471 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 4: then we can make it better because we could teach 1472 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 4: people that this shouldn't go on, and then that could 1473 01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:25,280 Speaker 4: change the outlook of the world moving forward. So maybe 1474 01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:27,960 Speaker 4: we're not having these jokes at home, right, and now 1475 01:13:28,200 --> 01:13:30,760 Speaker 4: what you're changing on TV is the reality of our 1476 01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 4: accents because our and the accents changed, So it's like 1477 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 4: I agree with both sides almost like as a as 1478 01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:38,519 Speaker 4: a show, you should be being relatable. That's what we 1479 01:13:38,600 --> 01:13:40,160 Speaker 4: was doing. It don't make it okay. We're walking around 1480 01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:42,559 Speaker 4: calling each other niggas. It don't make it okay. But 1481 01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:44,519 Speaker 4: we gotta have some dialogue so it can be better. 1482 01:13:44,680 --> 01:13:45,479 Speaker 1: I'm not mad at that. 1483 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:47,639 Speaker 2: I'm mad as good. We need an applause button. 1484 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:48,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I know. 1485 01:13:48,840 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 2: I don't both sides connected. You're connected. You connected both 1486 01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:55,960 Speaker 2: pieces to make a larger kind of puzzle. 1487 01:13:56,160 --> 01:13:59,040 Speaker 1: Nah, I agree, and I think that that's that's I 1488 01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:02,840 Speaker 1: guess the final word. Y'all know, we like to We 1489 01:14:02,920 --> 01:14:05,360 Speaker 1: like to wrap it up and have our finals say now. 1490 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,479 Speaker 1: We talked and hit on so many points today. This 1491 01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:11,040 Speaker 1: wasn't one of the episodes where we had one large 1492 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,559 Speaker 1: topic to talk about. But I do think that when 1493 01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 1: you hop in the comments, when you find yourself being 1494 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:20,040 Speaker 1: outraged on either a domestic violence incident, what about the 1495 01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:22,120 Speaker 1: people within your family? How are you making a difference, 1496 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 1: How are you stepping up? How are you showing up? 1497 01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:27,439 Speaker 1: Have you sayed too long in a relationship? I'm a 1498 01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:29,519 Speaker 1: lean into what he said earlier. Maybe there should be 1499 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:32,559 Speaker 1: a little bit more grace, but I think more importantly. No, no, no, no, 1500 01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 1: that was I said based on what Jay said. You know, 1501 01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:38,679 Speaker 1: I don't like that whole grace, but I do want 1502 01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:43,200 Speaker 1: to think too. And my final word would say, you 1503 01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:46,879 Speaker 1: can lean into your ignorance and know that it's sometimes 1504 01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:50,040 Speaker 1: selected right, or you could sit here and know that 1505 01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:51,280 Speaker 1: there's power and unlearning. 1506 01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:51,599 Speaker 4: Shit. 1507 01:14:52,920 --> 01:14:56,560 Speaker 1: We as a culture, as a community, as a society, 1508 01:14:57,479 --> 01:15:00,000 Speaker 1: have a lot of unlearning to do. From the Joe, 1509 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:02,400 Speaker 1: from the television, from the sitcoms, through the ways. We 1510 01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:05,639 Speaker 1: could talk about us becoming more sensitive, or we could 1511 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:09,440 Speaker 1: just talk about us having the access to more knowledge. 1512 01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:11,519 Speaker 1: And I think at the end of the day, we're 1513 01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:13,599 Speaker 1: mad that we know more because now all we gotta 1514 01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,960 Speaker 1: do is be like, now you gotta hold yourself accountable. 1515 01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:18,680 Speaker 1: The problem is we know more, and so when you 1516 01:15:18,720 --> 01:15:20,280 Speaker 1: show up as a fucked up person, when you show 1517 01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:21,760 Speaker 1: up as an abuser, when you show up, is this 1518 01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:27,320 Speaker 1: now the magnifying glass wants to hold you accountable? Where 1519 01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,800 Speaker 1: back in the nineties eighties, Back then there wasn't that 1520 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:33,600 Speaker 1: much of a scope in a people's opinion to be 1521 01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:36,360 Speaker 1: so broadly broadcasted. So at the end of the day, 1522 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:39,640 Speaker 1: we have some unlearning to do. We have some relearning, 1523 01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:42,919 Speaker 1: and if you want to choose to be selectively ignorant, 1524 01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:47,240 Speaker 1: that is on you. Jay.
