Speaker 2: I just do the show. I like hanging out with

33
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,760

35
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:41,680

36
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 3: actual show you got coming out called Token African.

37
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: H What assumptions do people make about you because you

38
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: are African?

39
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: Well soon especially like he is not so bad. But

40
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 2: in the States and in Canada, if I go on Africa,

41
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: I got No, you're not, You're too what Yeah, And

42
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 2: I go but I'm Africa. I was born there or

43
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 2: my forefathers were born there. And then I did the Dnaightiest,

44
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 2: which is really hard, Like that's a massive commitment because

45
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: you can't eat'll drink for like forty five minutes before

46
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 2: already my body is like okay, she's kidnapped obviously, and

47
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 2: her hands and then my body goes into shut down

48
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 2: and then you have this spit in this tube and

49
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 2: then fill it out and send that often then you

50
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: wait for us. So I know my my DNA makeup.

51
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 2: Now I know I'm Africa.

52
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: Did you have any interesting ancestors there?

53
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, hate because I had no idea because my

54
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: mom grew up a foster case. She was putting the system,

55
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 2: you know, as a baby, So we had no idea.

56
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 2: So when I saw, I was like, holy.

57
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: Hell, can you any particularly like bad relatives?

58
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 2: No? You know what I did, because when you do

59
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: the DNA thing, you have the option of the side

60
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 2: whoever you choose to keep it open so people are

61
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 2: with your similar DNA can get in touch with you.

62
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 2: And yeah, so I kept it open. My wife said no,

63
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: she doesn't want to know anyone else related to her.

64
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,240
Speaker 2: She closed his mind is open because I want.

65
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 1: Because relatives, relatives to come forward.

66
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,079
Speaker 2: Yeah. And now my my mom's biological brother who was

67
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: also put in system, but she didn't know he existed.

68
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 2: He lives in Sydney, and he got a touch on me. Yeah,

69
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 2: I mean I've totally blocked him. No, I haven't done that.

70
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 2: So I've actually put him on my touch. They have

71
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: exactly the same story, but he's he was just from

72
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: a different city in South Africa.

73
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: That, yeah, it's incredible. So I feel like most I

74
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: don't know, like I feel like Africa in terms of

75
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: naming the countries in Africa is one of the hardest

76
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: things to do ever. I'm not very good. I can

77
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: never do it. How many African countries can you know?

78
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: As an African?

79
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 2: That's really hard because I've never thought of It's like,

80
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 2: how many people have you slept with?

81
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 4: Can we ask that question?

82
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: That was my question? I don't know, I do, you

83
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: know what I mean?

84
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 2: But you know what, it's not more than this, you know,

85
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 2: I think so Mozambia, suit is Mozambi. Uh what else

86
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:20,320

100
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's good, I think so. I'm just a little

101
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: bit worried about tiring as a guy though. I was

102
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 1: at Mom's sixties on the weekend and all the men

103
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: seemed to retire just really, really badly. They're hating retirement,

104
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: they hating not being able to do anything.

105
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 2: But luckily they die before women.

106
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, we do.

107
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 4: So that's yeah.

108
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 2: I have nothing else here. I'm just going to tap out.

109
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 2: That's what it is. You know, what, do I really know,

110
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,360
