<v Speaker 3>Yeah, like.

0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:52.960
<v Speaker 2>You brush the same key and it's like the jitterbug

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:55.480
<v Speaker 2>is actually more dangerous than the I phone, you know

0:00:55.520 --> 0:00:55.880
<v Speaker 2>what I mean?

0:00:56.040 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 4>Like they I just be finding it.

0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:01.240
<v Speaker 6>My mom was saying to Park was on an island

0:01:01.360 --> 0:01:04.720
<v Speaker 6>like in like he died in ninety six, ninety seven.

0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 3>Oh, she was ahead of her time.

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:08.760
<v Speaker 4>She was, And it was like at the time, it

0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:10.760
<v Speaker 4>was like, oh yeah, that's just how she talked. But

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:12.480
<v Speaker 4>now you look back and you're like, where did you.

0:01:12.600 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 2>Even like, how did you hear about that?

0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:14.960
<v Speaker 5>My mom?

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:16.800
<v Speaker 4>I think I've told you this before.

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:20.800
<v Speaker 2>My mom once told me that Glenn Turman uh and

0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:24.840
<v Speaker 2>Aretha Franklin broke up because Glenn Turman started having a

0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 2>secret affair with her son.

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:30.040
<v Speaker 3>And that like that was the reason they got a divorce.

0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 3>The best is when they give you that civil rights tea. Yeah,

0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:34.120
<v Speaker 3>that should be wild.

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:36.880
<v Speaker 2>It was crazy and I and I believed it so

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 2>much because I was so blind to the fact that

0:01:39.200 --> 0:01:40.720
<v Speaker 2>my mom's an insane person.

0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:46.040
<v Speaker 3>And I was like, no, making ship up.

0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 2>And then I looked it up one day and there's

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:50.560
<v Speaker 2>no evidence of this ship whatsoever.

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:53.400
<v Speaker 4>But she's not making it up. It's like she heard it.

0:01:54.000 --> 0:02:00.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she didn't. Like she was like, she's not an

0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:01.559
<v Speaker 3>actual crazy person.

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:04.080
<v Speaker 2>My mom's a lovely lady, but she is the type

0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:06.320
<v Speaker 2>of person who will take a piece of information that

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:11.120
<v Speaker 2>she read in a periodical of nineteen whatever the fuck right,

0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:14.560
<v Speaker 2>and repeated for generations that wasn't a jet.

0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:18.280
<v Speaker 6>It was not a jet man that much to hurt

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:23.160
<v Speaker 6>when you spat that back to somebody who gave you pushback, you.

0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:26.360
<v Speaker 2>Know what really happened. I was like, halfway through the story,

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:29.120
<v Speaker 2>and I like openly was like, I don't think this

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 2>is true. You're like, you know what, y'all, I actually

0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:37.720
<v Speaker 2>don't think this is true. Yeah, I think it'd be

0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:40.320
<v Speaker 2>pretty weird if Glenn was just like still hanging out

0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.760
<v Speaker 2>after he flucked Aretha Franklin son, you know what I mean, Like,

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:46.000
<v Speaker 2>none of this makes sense.

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.880
<v Speaker 5>Well, I'm from Detroit, so you know the Aretha Franklin

0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:52.799
<v Speaker 5>stuff runs heavy and like obviously with her being from

0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:56.400
<v Speaker 5>there living there. But the worst murmor I've probably heard

0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:59.560
<v Speaker 5>about her was because she had her first child.

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:01.800
<v Speaker 2>She had she had a child when she was fourteen.

0:03:01.840 --> 0:03:02.280
<v Speaker 4>I think.

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:06.359
<v Speaker 5>That was that that her father is actually the the

0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 5>father of her child. Yes, that is the most prevalentice rumor.

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:17.959
<v Speaker 5>And then which my mama told me, and then she

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 5>got did I love? Then she gonna drop this on me?

0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:23.160
<v Speaker 5>She was like, uh, you know your grandma used to

0:03:23.200 --> 0:03:25.799
<v Speaker 5>hang out with him. I was like, well, I don't

0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:28.680
<v Speaker 5>know where, but you can stop that ship right there.

0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:37.680
<v Speaker 3>Related might be what the hell to Claude Franklin I'm saying.

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 4>I was like, no, we're just going it was just

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 4>weird in the box.

0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:44.960
<v Speaker 3>Throw it in the ocean.

0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:00.360
<v Speaker 5>Look, if you hate cops just because of ops.

0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:03.920
<v Speaker 3>The next time you get in trouble, call a crack Canad.

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 4>There you go, but quietly.

0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:13.040
<v Speaker 2>The only reason it's not a good idea is because

0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:14.120
<v Speaker 2>he was being nasty.

0:04:14.600 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know what I mean.

0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:17.799
<v Speaker 3>Otherwise that's a perfect idea.

0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:22.040
<v Speaker 2>We should be calling crackheads more often for the things

0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:25.359
<v Speaker 2>that we need that include social services.

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:31.200
<v Speaker 4>My barber employs him a lot, and they do all

0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:34.120
<v Speaker 4>this stuff. They'll come in, He'll be like, I'll give

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.160
<v Speaker 4>you two bucks to sweep up the back of the shop.

0:04:37.160 --> 0:04:38.760
<v Speaker 4>You go back there, he's like, keep the door open.

0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:45.680
<v Speaker 3>If I were what'd you doing?

0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 4>Like we were in there and one came in and

0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:53.560
<v Speaker 4>he had, like you clearly just stole it.

0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:57.080
<v Speaker 6>But he had like a box full of various office supplies,

0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 6>and I was like if I did need printer paper though,

0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:00.840
<v Speaker 6>why not?

0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Why?

0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:03.719
<v Speaker 4>Like I wish I was upset that I didn't need any.

0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:06.640
<v Speaker 2>They're not going to track him down, do you know

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:07.040
<v Speaker 2>what I mean?

0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 4>Not worth the effort.

0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 2>He's not worth the efforts. If anybody you were going

0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:13.800
<v Speaker 2>to buy stolen goods off of, you should buy it

0:05:13.839 --> 0:05:15.919
<v Speaker 2>off of a buy my video games from crackheads.

0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:21.599
<v Speaker 4>It was awesome. That's what come up. Yeah, like PlayStation.

0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:26.279
<v Speaker 5>Listen, I'm seven thousand, so you know, we had Sega Genesis.

0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 5>My first system was an Atari. So I went from

0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 5>Atari to Nintendo to Sega Genesis and then to PlayStation

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:38.640
<v Speaker 5>one and two and then I retired after two. And

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:46.680
<v Speaker 5>you're saying Sega Era, Yeah, you get the I mean

0:05:46.760 --> 0:05:50.120
<v Speaker 5>Madden was the first iteration was Madden was on Genesis.

0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:52.039
<v Speaker 2>Oh I used to play.

0:05:51.960 --> 0:05:54.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, to play Madden because it was tech mobile with

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:59.080
<v Speaker 5>no tech Mobile was Nintendo, okay, and then and then

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:00.680
<v Speaker 5>Madden was was Sega Genesis.

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:02.680
<v Speaker 4>There there was like a bunch of games. There's like

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 4>Madden Quarterback Club, Quarterback Club. Quarterback Club was back blitz

0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:13.680
<v Speaker 4>about saying football took a long time to develop the technology, like.

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:18.280
<v Speaker 2>Like basketball, NBA JAM you kind of had like the

0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 2>cool versions of it early.

0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:23.040
<v Speaker 4>They took a minute on foot. Oh yeah they did.

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:25.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean double dribbled. We thought was revolutionary.

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:29.279
<v Speaker 3>It was just like, what is this mind blown?

0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:29.680
<v Speaker 1>You know?

0:06:29.880 --> 0:06:32.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he and Michael Jordan in any basketball games because

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:33.240
<v Speaker 4>he wouldn't give it up.

0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:36.159
<v Speaker 3>He was, uh he was in Windy City.

0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:40.719
<v Speaker 2>Thought was that the game was he wasn't Celtics few.

0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:46.000
<v Speaker 2>He was always player twenty three because or or you know,

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:47.600
<v Speaker 2>random player or whatever.

0:06:47.520 --> 0:06:50.240
<v Speaker 4>Because he refused to allow his he was.

0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:52.480
<v Speaker 3>NBA jam right, No, he wasn't even.

0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 4>Which was crazy because you had to be like to

0:06:56.720 --> 0:06:59.040
<v Speaker 4>be like Scottie Pippen, like bj Armstrong.

0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Character like damn but and it was a phenomenal fucking character.

0:07:06.600 --> 0:07:09.320
<v Speaker 2>But he would not allow himself.

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:11.600
<v Speaker 4>To be in the thing. He did later though, right,

0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:15.080
<v Speaker 4>he was in like NBA Street and now he's in everything.

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 4>But I think they had to like, yeah, crazy, I

0:07:20.400 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 4>think video games was gonna pop up. Jordan is like.

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:27.920
<v Speaker 5>Super protective over his like that's like he explained how

0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 5>he does not sign autographs very rarely because he wants

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:34.560
<v Speaker 5>the autograph to actually have value, and so he doesn't

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 5>sign and he doesn't want anybody else making money off

0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:36.640
<v Speaker 5>the ship.

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:38.440
<v Speaker 4>Bro, That's how you know I'm never going to get

0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 4>that rich. I would not if I would not give

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:40.760
<v Speaker 4>a fuck.

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.760
<v Speaker 2>That Isn't that such a crazy position to have for

0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 2>a gambling addict?

0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:45.600
<v Speaker 5>Though?

0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:48.080
<v Speaker 4>Do you know what I mean?

0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 3>Like, why.

0:07:53.800 --> 0:07:57.600
<v Speaker 4>As you say that, I see you perfectly framed this episode.

0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:07.640
<v Speaker 3>That man is protective of his identity.

0:08:07.760 --> 0:08:09.960
<v Speaker 5>Well, that's what makes it so funny is it was

0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:12.480
<v Speaker 5>only for this to happen and only for all the

0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:14.280
<v Speaker 5>memes that came out of the last It's like he

0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:16.120
<v Speaker 5>never anticipated the means.

0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 6>If you'd have asked me in like nineteen ninety six,

0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:25.160
<v Speaker 6>will you ever see Michael Jordan cry, Yeah, I would

0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:25.840
<v Speaker 6>never have thought it.

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:30.480
<v Speaker 2>Turn Signatures can't protect its yellow rows.

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:35.679
<v Speaker 6>Niggaig Michael Jordans and Will Smith are two of the

0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:36.480
<v Speaker 6>Fallouf site.

0:08:37.160 --> 0:08:38.400
<v Speaker 4>It's like losing a parent.

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:39.520
<v Speaker 2>I could have never guessed it.

0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:43.440
<v Speaker 4>It's it's very difficult. I could have and I never

0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:45.080
<v Speaker 4>saw they were on top of the world. They had

0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:45.360
<v Speaker 4>it all.

0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:51.120
<v Speaker 2>It truly has made me feel in a vulnerable in

0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:53.520
<v Speaker 2>a way that I've never experienced, where I was like, oh,

0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:55.800
<v Speaker 2>this could happen to literally anyone.

0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:57.599
<v Speaker 4>And I keep giving them chances. I listened to I

0:08:57.760 --> 0:08:58.960
<v Speaker 4>like pretty girls. I listened to them.

0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:06.959
