- speaker-0: Hey, what is good everybody? It's your boy Carlos, and joining me in this video is my boy ⁓ C4 Explosives. What is going on, son? speaker-1: Good everybody. Chillin' man, tryin' to get through these holidays. You? Yeah. speaker-0: Same. ⁓ I love family time, but it's always always means more work around the house, cleaning things, getting things prepared, like and even though we're not messy here, it's still a lot of work. speaker-1: where that dust come from. That's where I dusted that. Is that? ⁓ sorry. speaker-0: Yeah. Since no one else is no one else is allowed in this room, I'm the one that has to move things, clean things, la la la. And so my office is generally the dustest one in the house. speaker-1: I was like in my nightstand, no matter what, man. I actively move everything on that thing and then let, yet I still hear there's like a thick layer of dust around the lamp on the backside where I... speaker-0: Yeah. Yeah. speaker-1: foiled again. speaker-0: That's where that's where having a mom like I had, you're scared to to to leave that dust there. speaker-1: Tighten up. speaker-0: Yeah. Coming from my mom and then going into basic training. I always joke around with people. I'm like, growing up with my mom and then going into basic training and having the drill sergeants yelling at you, throwing your stuff all around, I started crying. And they're like, Why are you crying, Private? I say, because you make me miss my mom. speaker-1: Yeah, I'll do it. speaker-0: My mom believes in clean capital C L E A N. All of it is capital. You better be clean or you're starting all over. speaker-1: says it on the side of the chancleta this is clean as it gets boomeranged speaker-0: Exactly. But no, I've been having so much fun. going all the way back to Thanksgiving, even, being able to reconnect with the Cuban side of my family. And then here, you know, staying home and and ⁓ just being here doing country folk stuff. it's just it's it's a it's been a nice little change of pace, you know? yeah, and and folks need to take that time to just relax, reconnect with the people that mean something to you. For sure. And ⁓ and then you know and then we write out because I've been seeing a lot of the the the folks that we've been talking to, the folks that we've been, you know, virtually hanging out with, a lot of them are resting up 'cause come January, you know, is brass knuckle time. speaker-1: is go time. Yeah, I see it too. Like there's a lot of like, all right, this is the time to reset the recharge, recalibrate. Just like, again, like, we didn't do a whole lot. But it seems like there was a lot of like, there was a lot of bonding, which is cool. And then and then and then when you're having to go off and do work and do do all the you know, separate yourself. to go do what you have to do. There's a, there's, there's a better understanding on what's going on. Like, all right, I got to go handle some business. Let's let's go. And we could do this all again, you know, just finding time, finding time together is important. ⁓ I got to chop it up with BT and his campaign, ⁓ team. We're going to go out, we're going to go out canvassing hard for him, ⁓ come January. So it's been pretty cool, man, to see the inner workings. I've never been a part of something like that, you know. speaker-0: Yeah. Shut up, Bernard Taylor. My man is out there, boy, out of out of like nothing but respect for everyone that we've talked to and everyone that we've networked with and every but but Bernard Taylor is that dude. He has content constantly and you think that he has a team, but it's like him and his wife. speaker-1: Yeah. Yeah. speaker-0: She makes t shirts and he makes TikTok. speaker-1: That's it, He's like, I'm gonna go out to the garage. I'm gonna make about 400 reels real quick. then banging them out, man. But you know what? they're good. when you're on the flip side, when you want a candidate that's gonna do that shit for you, that's gonna grind for you, you know what like? He's grinding, man. He's one of us. He's one of the homies, but the homies that are riding with us. I mean that- speaker-0: Funny. speaker-1: You've got to man. speaker-0: And and I think it's just a really clear showcase of his intention because he says, I'm here for you. And he's there for you. You know, he's literally saving lives. He's literally pulling people out of burning cars on the side of the road, if not the building. And you know, he's doing paramedical stuff. He's like he's out there getting it done. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: Yeah, man. So when he says it like he means it. So ⁓ it's folks like that. ⁓ and it doesn't help that he he looks like a solid linebacker. speaker-1: man. I wish he speaker-0: It doesn't hurt. It doesn't hurt that he looks like a linebacker because you know Mike Johnson gets mouthy and he gets you know he gets his chin checked. Bernard Taylor will be the one carrying him out to the stretcher. speaker-1: Come on, Ben. You know better than that. I got you though, but we're gonna have a talk speaker-0: Yeah. Yeah. Speaking of linebackers, how about them Chicago players? speaker-1: about them bears man it was so close yesterday. ⁓ speaker-0: Yeah. If it wasn't for the flu running around that that locker room, I think they would have they would have had like Caleb if Caleb would have thrown the ball six inches higher, we'd be celebrating in a different way. speaker-1: was the game of the year. like, you could tell where he's developed, you know, developed ⁓ like these sidearm passes and like these mechanics that are very... speaker-0: Underarm yesterday. speaker-1: Yeah, that was a bit much. you know what? But it was completed. There's a lot of tools in the toolbox. speaker-0: He did a handful of he did a handful of overhands that that didn't get caught. He did the underhand one and it got caught and and they got a couple of yards out of it. speaker-1: Yeah, and they Ben Johnson's got some schemes man. The hook and ladder like they're they're all kind of but Caleb got to throw the passes that are easy. Yeah, we make it easy. Yeah, if he was able to do that. I mean that we probably will put 100 up on the board. You know what I'm saying? Like 35 to 38 some shit. speaker-0: There was a couple of them last night though. one of ⁓ was ⁓ Lovelace. Lovelin? Lovelace. Lovelin. And the other one, I think it was Kanga but I think both of those guys got passes that hit ⁓ dead in the hands and they just they took their eyes, they moved their eyes too quickly. ⁓ But if if those two passes and I know, you know, hindsight is twenty twenty, all that stuff, but if those two passes would have would have gotten caught, I think or would have been caught, I think it would again, it would have been a completely different thing. But speaker-1: Well, even like there was a in the not the first interception for a touchdown, but not the pick six in the beginning of the game. But there was an interception with the Bears had committed a penalty. The same the guy that got the interception in the end zone committed the penalty. I'm thinking if if that penalty didn't happen. 49ers wouldn't have scored and then there's a whole momentum shift. Like it's not you score, score, you score, I score. It's like, all right, we just took it away from you again. speaker-0: We took your turn. speaker-1: punched in the mouth and then that's that's that's defeating right there coming out of the gate. yeah, but. speaker-0: Hey. The exciting thing is my boys are my boys are showing up. speaker-1: NFC champs. speaker-0: They're showing even even bigger than that. The fact that they like cause everyone is like you can you can accidentally make noise. ⁓ you can you can accidentally win games, you can accidentally throw the ball in it, you know. There's to a certain extent, some of the people that have been kind of dragging their feet on what are the Chicago Bears these days, they they they have a an argument until the Bears beat the Packers. And they almost beat San Francisco. San Francisco to me is the best, the best team in the NFC West. See, I I watched Seattle a handful of times this year. They win. San Francisco shows up and hits you in the throat. speaker-1: Yeah, they're defensive. speaker-0: Christian McCaff they Christian McCaffrey you're asked to do. speaker-1: Yeah, I was hoping he was hurt just a little more because he was getting like back spasm and stuff. He was getting trying to get his back rubbed out and stuff. I'm like, man, just stay just just just sitting off the rest of the game. Oh, you're good. speaker-0: Yeah. That's the he's a horse though. He's He's my ⁓ I I think he might be my favorite non-bear player. Just because he I you know, living out here, I get to I get to see him talking, just getting interviewed, not during the game, you know. And he's that dude. He puts in the work, and then he straps him up, then he hits you in the mouth, and then he goes back to work. speaker-1: Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. speaker-0: Yep. He ain't even about he's he's not about all that I don't know him personally, but to me I don't think that he's about that glitz and glamour life that come with the NFL. And when you're a stud in the NFL, you know. Yeah. ⁓ he's yeah, he's he's a good dude. He'd be lifting cars and shit with his legs. Thank you. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: them in another couple weeks we'll see them in another another couple weeks if the playoffs start shaking out the way that they do yeah it'd be fun it'd be fun to be yeah we gotta whip that ass again but yeah you know that's that's part of it you know we got them at home if we beat them think about that if we beat ⁓ no we're not it was I thought it was gonna be beat green bay almost beat San Francisco It would have been fun to beat Green Bay again to move on into the playoffs, but it's not gonna work out like that. It's gonna be we beat Green Bay, almost beat San Francisco. The Lions is gonna be they had they've been stumbling a little bit, but speaker-1: Yeah. Hey, Mr. Ben Johnson. speaker-0: But I think I think Ben wants to get that that first loss that we saw them. I think he wants to cause now we're clicking, bro. Like speaker-1: You saw us when we were just trying to work shit out. speaker-0: Yeah, we just we just put almost put fifty on San Francisco, who to me is a better team than the than the Lions are. speaker-1: Thank speaker-0: Not a person. So yeah, that'll be nice. Get in there and get ⁓ get Ben Johnson a nice little win for for being a wonderful coach. And then we go into the playoffs. speaker-1: feel like every game lately, man, I have like eight heart attacks. last game, the last game, was like throughout the whole thing, like, we got to score, we got to score. But Green Bay, like I had like six mini heart attacks in like the last like 10 minutes of the game over time. I was like, I can't take this, man. We need to, can't we just blow them out? Can't we blow somebody out? We got to it come from behind. speaker-0: Yeah. Yeah, but that's like the come from behind thing is you can see everyone is slowly but surely buying into the system. They're like, ⁓ and then they realize, you know, ⁓ Ben Johnson, from what I understand, he is very meticulous and he's very he expects he expects you to be here when you're supposed to be there on the field, right? It's all about if you just pay attention to the system, it's going to work. Just do your part. Don't worry about anybody else's job. Do your part. And there's some simple things. If if you don't block, no, there's no block, no rock. Yeah. So if you want to be on ESPN and all that stuff, you better start blocking. You bet, and then the more you do it, the more you. The more comfortable you get doing it. And then it starts to make sense as to why you should be here blocking there. Right? And then and then when you have a beast like Caleb showing up throwing sixty yard darts hitting the bullseye. Hitting the bullseye consistently. That never know. speaker-1: times. hitting them. speaker-0: No, how close is he has he gotten what are we looking for? Four thousand yards or something like that? speaker-1: He got like 333, so he needs like 270, I think, and he's got it. I think he had to average out 300 for each game. speaker-0: Okay. Yeah. speaker-1: Thank you. speaker-0: You got that dude. And you're doing pretty good, you know, like the running backs. The running backs, what people might not remember is in the beginning of the season they were looking for good running backs because they weren't a hundred percent sure that Swift was gonna have it in them. Swift is a good fast back. He's not he's he's not the kind he like Walter used to just put his head down. And hit your soul out of your body. speaker-1: Yeah, yeah, yeah. speaker-0: We don't have that. Swift will hit you, but he'll bounce off and take off running. He's one of those fastbacks. And Kyle Manongay, for as wonderful as he is to watch, ⁓ he I think he just needs to be a little bit bigger and he'll be exactly he would be exactly what we're looking for. speaker-1: Yeah. He came out of nowhere too. and you could tell like how Ben Johnson is like taking everything that clicked in Detroit with the dual threats to change your pace backs. One, one, the one's real good on the inside. One's great on the outside. They both have hands. They could catch it. And he's like, he's like mimicking this in Chicago. And they kind of just fell into a nun guy. Cause they were trying to do Rochon Johnson. trying to do, you know, like, and it really didn't fit. now they got, you got two guys that, that Like you said, bought into the system and they know their roles and they're, they celebrate each other. You know what I'm saying? Which is, which is huge too. Cause you could be like, well, I want the rock. No, I want the rock, you know, like, there could be that, but they're, celebrate each other. There there's that competition, you know, amongst each other, you know, and, and, but all in all, everybody's in on this all phases. speaker-0: Yeah. When you're on a good team that and this has happened for me on a basketball team, kind of baseball, but specifically basketball, where everyone knew their spot, everyone knew their strengths, everyone knew their weaknesses, and you would, you know, as a team, you would cover the weaknesses and you'd celebrate the strengths and stuff like that. And all of a sudden everyone's dunking on everybody else. So that's that chemistry when they when they talk about team chemistry, that's what it is. When you when you are when you can see the tendencies from your ⁓ teammates, and you know for a fact that dude's gonna be right there. And you know that dude's gonna be right there. Give it to give it to the guy on the wing because he's gonna do some things. But if he's not there. That guy over there is probably gonna do his thing because that's his tendencies are over there. Right. So when you get that understanding, and that's what I think that's what Ben Johnson is trying to do is get get to that level of understanding. speaker-1: like an orchestra like everybody's like everybody plays a part in the symphony you know and then like you could it's cool to see Caleb throw the dart or the dime the deep dime and the guy didn't even make his break yet but the ball's already in the air and then all of a sudden then he makes his cut and it's in his basket like you know I was like man it's speaker-0: Now he's talking all kinds of smack too. A good smack. He's like, yeah, I can make that throw. speaker-1: And he did last week too. did this week. speaker-0: When it dude DJ Moore caught the pass while he was covered by two people, and then there was a third in front of the play. And somehow he came out with that at the back of the end zone. It's incredible. When you have that much trust in your teammates, good things happen. Yeah. speaker-1: And that goes for anything, especially when we get back into the political scheme of things, you need a team. Can't be the one person. Because you can have all the great qualities in the world, but if you don't have people out there, you delegate people to be in those positions. know what I'm saying? Beatsies, like Bernard's like, all right, I got guys here in this part, this part, and this part. And this is your team here. So go out with your team. You know what I'm saying? He's our Ben Johnson, you know, and our Caleb Williams at the same time. And you know, he's going out there and and like, you know, and and he's got the blueprint and this is where we were. We play a crucial factor and when we bring all these new candidates on, you know that are that are aspiring for these positions that we we kind of get. Kind of implement like give them those those tips. You know this is what's working out here. You know, have you tried this? You know what's failing for you right Well, maybe, know, like, you know, it's none of I can't even imagine where to start, you know, try to try to run a campaign, let alone, you know, try to run it from the ground up without having a bunch of people give me a bunch of money. You know, so. speaker-0: Mm-hmm. It works like that in corporate America too. Because wherever I worked, I always, if I got to know someone, they always were attached to a smaller group somewhere. You know, if it was a project manager that would take developers and designers with them, whatever. So you you develop your little team that's going to maneuver corporate America. And down in LA, it happens quite a bit. and that's why when you're down in LA or if you're interested in moving to LA, I always tell people find your click, find it quick, and stick with them. That's the only way you're really going to make it down there. ⁓ the lone the lone person is that was me. All I wanted to do was show up and work and go home. ⁓ because work was plentiful and I was going home at three and four o'clock in the morning and I didn't have energy for anybody else. But but if you want to make it in corporate America and a little more condensed, ⁓ would be LA, you need to find speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: your people who are good at what they do and then you create that click and then you move through each other's careers that way. That's the political system is basically like that too. You have you have the person that's running for office and then they have whoever's good at marketing, whoever's good at calling people, whoever's good at money raising, who's ever good at all those things. That's your support staff. So UB Caleb. ⁓ a lot of them have ⁓ campaign managers. I would assume that's more like a coach, more like a more like a Ben Johnson, you know. speaker-1: of coordinators you got all your coordinators for your right I can see that speaker-0: Yep. And then you just go and you you take office in whatever state you live in, or you take office in Washington, DC, and then you write out. That's how they all do it. That's why these transition teams and all this stuff, that's why you have all these people in place. They're part of your team. And if everyone is clicking the way that they do, you know, I think that's why You know, the Obama's ⁓ the Obama years, he kinda had a team like that that was out there pushing the message and doing all the things. Trump, not so much because he's more of a ball hog. You know? It's gotta be about him and it's only about him. So he's he's more like he wants to be the star player, he wants to be the coach, he wants to be the decision maker, he wants to be all the things because he thinks that he's all the things. But that's why you Right. But that's why you see like his his people always change because They haven't developed that team mentality. You know, the people that are on his team, the ones that have stuck around this time, the first go round, I don't think any of those actually count because those were establishment people and they were, you know, they didn't let him get away with all the dumb stuff that he's doing now. But then he got rid of all of those. That means that your teamwork and your team chemistry is now all. speaker-1: it. speaker-0: completely messed up. So what he did is he goes and he goes and gets to all these all these shysters, all these cheaters that hung out in Florida. All of these people hung out in Florida together. And they're all scam artists. They're all on the take. They're all they all will take your donations and buy yachts. They all do all these terrible things. But there's no allegiance. The only allegiance, if they have allegiance to Trump, is because he's promising them the ability to make more money than they already have. speaker-1: money and power. That's championship. Yeah, there's a you. Yeah, you can see the similarities and it's not it seems like he gathered up every villain in every neighborhood, you know, and brought him to Mar-a-Lago and said, let's let's let's do this. And we're speaker-0: That's it. Hungry for power and money, which is basically the same thing. How hungry for that are you? And they're like, I'd do anything for it. I'd even have sex with kids. Perfect. speaker-1: Yeah, I got an island for you. Yeah. Yeah. How about all that shit, man? Like, it's getting through some some some stuff, man, with the baby in Michigan and like these things that are coming out like speaker-0: Explain to me that Mich Mich Lake Michigan baby. Because I looked it up, I looked it up a couple days, but then I was coming up with something something else. Like there was a woman and a baby, but then like a toddler had died, and that's what I found out. Apparently, there's I don't know if it's a completely different story. speaker-1: ⁓ I mean, like you, man, there's so much information that is coming from everywhere. It's hard. And you know, and then they're going to deflect and say that everything that's in the files is false. like, on. But yeah, there was a girl that got pregnant, I guess, that had a baby and the baby ended up in Lake Michigan. I think the woman was with, the girl was with Trump. So like, I don't know, man, there's a, the level of... ⁓ Man, I don't know how there's not a word for out like disgusting. These people are, there's not a word for it. And Trump said Trump, Trump, Trump is, is, is, is, the level is the, guess the, um, the perfect phrase. They're all trumps and they're, they're nasty man. And it gets deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper. And the deeper we go, the more we forget about the shit we just. Like, you know, you go down a long, long hallway and there's pictures all over the, down the hallway and you're like, ⁓ yeah. And like in a museum. And then the next thing, you know, you forget everything that you just passed because the thing, the next thing that you've seen is like ⁓ more shocking to the system. And it's just what it seems like, man. And then they're going to go throw some bombs in Nigeria and then they're going to, you know, fucking throw bombs. speaker-0: Is so frustrating to me, the Nigeria thing specifically, and and the Venezuela thing too, because he ran on releasing Epstein files, he ran on no new wars, he ran on all these things, and it seems like Number one, obviously he's going back on all of ⁓ but ⁓ I get frustrated with people that defend him because he's gone back on everything. He's making a big show out of this ice thing. Obama and Biden have had to this point deported way more people than him without the show. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: He said no new wars. We got two new ones. We just bombed ⁓ Nigeria. We we're we're we we just took a oil tanker away from Venezuela. speaker-1: I we're still trying to actively take Greenland. speaker-0: Wait, yeah, he's saying that Greenland is gonna be the fifty first state. speaker-1: He's still he's still on board with that. And it's that it's that outlandish shit there. It was like, ah, this guy, this guy. speaker-0: Yeah. And then he puts his name and then he puts his name on the fucking Kennedy Center, which is illegal. You're not it's against the rules. You know what I mean? speaker-1: all these people, all these artists that are backing out, they're like, we're going to find you a million dollars for your breach of contract. You know what I'm saying? Like they're Kennedy senators trying to, just trying to implement these, I guess, you know, these penalties on the artists because you, because you put, because of Trump's name on it, you're going to back out like, well, yeah, we have standards, we have morals. I'm like the douche bag that you just decided to put all over your. speaker-0: There's no respect. There's no respect. And and I wanna say that like America First and MAGA and all that stuff, like they're just hook, line, and sinker. But folks like folks like Nick Fuentes, who is an oxymoron to me, but and a moron without the oxy. But speaker-1: There could be oxy speaker-0: But I've I've been, you know, I like to watch content from the people who consider themselves spoke spokespeople for w different groups. And he's one of them that has been popping up on my radar more often. And even he has been dogging Trump saying you're breaking all the All the agreements that we are gonna have, and he thinks the GOP needs to go away. Specifically, if they lose the midterms next year, he thinks that the GOP just needs to go all the way away. He's not that he's a democrat and not that he pulls for democrats, he just wants new new organizations up there, which is hilarious because so do we. speaker-1: Yeah, I could see. Yeah. speaker-0: So these ignorance these ignorants have the have us in the upside down to where I am agreeing with Nick Fuentes. speaker-1: and Marjorie Taylor Greene when she did, and you know what, like a lot of them are starting to come around, right? know, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owen, a lot of it was like when Charlie Kirk died, Candace Owen was like, wait a minute, let's pump the brakes here, what's really going on out here? And then she's, know, and then, you know, I can only imagine what it's like behind the scenes, like the threats and everything from the people that were supposedly supporting you and all of a sudden, like you're one of them now. Like, you know, like. All this funding disappears or, you know, shit like that. But it happens on both sides too. Like you get, you get the anchors like Don Lemon and, know, and then they get, they get ostracized off because they, they, take stances. They take their stances, but it doesn't align with what, with the, ⁓ the, ⁓ the upper echelon say. speaker-0: Yeah. Yeah. And Marjorie Taylor Green, she lasted all of what two days against Trump. And then she she wanted to retire. And now she's now she's going and doing the view. And there was something else. There was an interview that she did with the New Yorker, was it? Something like that. Where she's like, I'm sorry that I participated in this bully. bully politics and all this stuff and I'm like Spanish Spanish have a saying if you translate it. ⁓ loosely, ⁓ it it it says ⁓ the punch has been thrown or the punch has landed. You know what I mean? You can't unhit someone. speaker-1: So it's. speaker-0: You've already done the damage lady. Sorry. speaker-1: It's like all these people that were like Lindsey Graham when January 6th happened and they were like, ⁓ this is ridiculous. And pete's Trump and then they're kissing his ass like the next week. speaker-0: Yeah. Cause they know that that's where the money is coming from. speaker-1: could only last for so long. speaker-0: Yeah, and when you again you build the house of cards or you build your or house on sand and whatever metaphor you want to use, when you build your house on bullshit, it's it's only a matter of time. It's not gonna be able to withstand storms, and that's that's what we're starting to see. The storm of the Epstein files, the storm of him put had just incessantly trying to put his name on stuff. Having having the United States be a direct ref ⁓ reflection of his Idiocies. All that stuff is coming crumbling down. speaker-1: He's turning it into a gold-plated, like, Mar-a-Lago. speaker-0: Yeah, and I can't help but to think back and and try to imagine being around when Nixon came down. Imagine being around and all these reports are starting to come out that hey, the game ain't what you think it is. And everybody's like, ⁓ And I'm like, no, the game ain't what you think it is. And everybody's in, ⁓ and then, you know, we lost grip in the seventies and the eighties and stuff. Like, life got good. You forget about politics when life is good. speaker-1: Could you imagine too, like, so back then, like, all of a sudden, like, oh, I have I have a tape, you know, let's play the tapes. You know what I'm saying? Like you can't create, you can't create these things. And now, now with AI, it's like, you know, you, if you go by off, off a true social, right. And you see Donald Trump, he's going to just spit out anything that's out there that somebody puts out on there. And he's like, the sky is falling. And then, you know, the next thing you know, all his people are like, yes, the sky is falling, but it's fake. And then like you have all these Epsi files that are coming out and you see his track record since he was fucking, I don't know, since he put his name on his first building, like he's a sleazeball. And it's like, wait, there is actually hard evidence. Like there are tapes out there. There are pictures that are not doctor. There is testimony that they refuse to unseal or redact and like, it's cool, man. That's gonna hit. it's gonna make. speaker-0: When he first in 2016, before he became president, people were st talking about these Russian PP tapes. Remember? Remember? And everyone was like, ⁓ he's got tapes of him and Russian hookers together and all this stuff. Come to find out. They're not Russian and they're not ladies. And then they and then they let him buy the they let him buy Miss America and and Miss Teen and all that stuff. Talk about letting the the the fox into the hen house. ⁓ yeah. speaker-1: And then like, you know, I'll grab him by the, you know, grab him by the, and like, you just see it. It was like, you never hit any of it. Like it was just like, you know, there was just layers of it, you know? And it was just like, on, this guy's a joke. speaker-0: It's a and it's a it's a perfect he is the perfect example. He's the poster boy of rich white privilege. It's not just white privilege. I know folks that are white that will be upset if you ⁓ if you say that they you know When you say white privilege, there's a there's like a a racial negativity to it. But some of the folks that I know, they know that they do have privilege. And they do know that they're, you know, there's certain benefits to being of light complexion. I'm not talking about those guys. ⁓ Donald Trump is rich white privilege, which rich privilege is, you know, if you say rich and powerful here in America, you can take it for granted that we're talking about someone white. But the fact that him and all his friends all have been doing this. Before you and I were even alive. They've been doing this for a long time. And the only thing that we really have is Epstein getting a sweetheart deal. He's the only one that got busted. He's the only one, but he got ⁓ he got out unscathed until the second go around, and now we're gonna find out that Trump has something to do. You remember when I said this months and months ago? Trump probably, probably has something to do with his disappearance. Of disappearance of the soul, not of the body. speaker-1: Here we are. speaker-0: Here we are. So you don't think that the rich and powerful can make people disappear? Here we are. My man was in prison, prison. speaker-1: Hey, girlfriends in a country club. speaker-0: Now she's chillin'. Now she's chillin'. speaker-1: She got a chef. But there's the level. speaker-0: She gets puppies delivered. speaker-1: I don't like that puppy. Send me a new one. Yeah. I broke it. I broke it. speaker-0: Send me a white one. speaker-1: Man, you hear, did you hear, on ⁓ Lonnie read that Christmas book to the kids? speaker-0: I can't listen to her. I can't take her seriously. I can't take her seriously. It was from the first time when they they this this is such a destructive family. They tore up the rose garden to put down this, you know, a concrete lunch area. Where you get your hour and a half of sunshine before you have to go back. speaker-1: Get your daylight, you're walking around. but. speaker-0: Yeah, man. It's crazy. It's crazy to think that these folks have been and that's just one crew. That's just one crew. Whether or not they're they're doing gross things with kids or not, they're this is just one. You remember how earlier in this conversation we were just talking about having a little crew and you're maneuvering through your careers? Yeah. This is just one crew. This is just one crew. speaker-1: a lot of teams in the in league. speaker-0: So many teams. So many teams. And the more power they have, the more the more cocky they get about it. They think that they're gonna get away with it. Even if they got b and this is a perfect example. Even if they got busted doing this dirty stuff to kids, they still got away with it. speaker-1: Yeah, they're starting to, they're making a lot of mistakes with their arrogance. They're underestimating. And you know, speaker-0: I don't even care who you are, even if you're doing things for the right reasons, eventually if you do all this stuff the way that they're doing, they're pushing and pushing and pushing and pushing. Eventually, eventually everything falls apart. Every every push, every there's have been a lot of positive things that have started and and have fallen apart. Eventually when you're doing dumb things like these morons are doing, eventually those like we keep records, bitch. speaker-1: Yeah, like we can see what you're doing. speaker-0: Yeah. And unfortunately unfortunately, you know, the Democrats have zero power, let alone balls to do anything. Yeah. ⁓ Republicans are gonna stop it 'cause I'm I'm assuming all of these folks are getting paid. And then at the end of the day, after the smash and grab, because that's what this is, it's a posse and they're smashing and grabbing. They're making money. I saw a video today where this guy explained the tariffs and how you know he he had like a blender kind of thing. And a blender cost a hundred and twenty dollars, but now it costs a hundred and fifty dollars or something like that because of tariffs. And he sh he held up the money. And then he took away how much it costs, and this is how much you paid for tariffs. And he had like a 20 and a 10, something like that. He goes, and then if I take this 10, like Trump is saying, we're gonna give you back money, we're gonna give you, we're gonna do away with the IRS and all this stuff. The only reason Trump wants to get done with the IRS is because him and his friends. That's that's where their corruption exists. If you're from the streets, you're from the the hood, the corruption happens down here. Their corruption happens up there. When the Republicans take office, they do away with all the IRS people because that's where their law breaking is happening. And then they take all those, turn those, they take all those funds, turn them into cops to rough us up. Then when the Temocrats take over, they release the cops. They go get more IRS agents and then they fight crime up there. Still fucking us up. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: But not as many cops. There's no ice, there's no none of that that none of that stuff. It's a lot less dramatic. Corruption is up there. When you realize that the Republicans exist to break government because they want corporations to tell you what to do. When you realize that that's the game, you start to realize, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Where are we going with this shit? Why are we doing that? speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: America first. Why are we bombing? Why are we bombing Nigeria? Why are we taking things from Venezuela? speaker-1: And I was just watching the video. Somebody posted on Instagram. It was like a full length video, but ⁓ it was a video that John Deere had them take off of YouTube. And it was talking to a few farmers ⁓ in the Midwest, right? And they were talking about how the tariffs are affecting the ⁓ farm system community, know, farmers in general. So he was like in the small town where there was about 40 to 50 farmers decades ago. And you're talking about like generational farmers and now there's only four or five. And then you talk about how there, he talked about how the, ⁓ there was so many options back then, like from where you get your grain from, where you get your fertilizer from, where you're getting your tools from, where you're getting your vehicles from there's competition. So then that drove the prices down and now everybody started, ⁓ these conglomerations and it started back in the Bush era ⁓ of Obama. there was, you and it now there's only four or five options and they're all connected together. And then that, that, that gets your pricing to this inflated, inflated this number, right? And he's talking about that, you know, it costs, let's say, ⁓ an acre costs, I don't know, whatever it produces. Like let's say. round numbers, $500 for so much soybean, whatever. He goes, all these companies will get together and say, well, your expenses are going to be $4.99. And then you're only supposed to take this little bit of profit. then with all the bailout money, all the bailout money is speaker-0: Mm-hmm. speaker-1: and and then of course they have to import more than they export because everything is cut off again. And he's just driving through his old neighborhood and he's like decades ago there was a restaurant there, there was machinery. machinery building there. This was a facility here. This is where my uncle used to live. And this is where hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people used to provide for the country. And now there's like four or five of us. And it's decimated. And then they're gonna bail them out, supposedly, and make it look good. You know, you're talking about, you know, giving money and trying to, it's a show, man. He's like, and he talked about it was just speaker-0: Mm-hmm. speaker-1: You're funneling taxpayers money. You're laundering tax for your money. speaker-0: Mm-hmm. Yeah, going back to that that blender video. The point that I was gonna make when I brought it up is he had the 20 and the 10, and he says, What good is giving you this 10? And he keeps this 20. Like he's taking money from you. And then he gives you a little bit back to say, ⁓ yeah, look at how much money we have. Like he's stealing these tariffs. He's basically stealing money from the Americans so he can then do the ballroom, hire more ice. He's taking money from you to hire ice agents. He's taking money from you to build a ballroom. He's taking money from you to enrich himself. speaker-1: and redact files, millions of dollars in lawyer fees. So siphon through file. speaker-0: A redact files. And then let's remember he wants two hundred and fifty million, three hundred million for because he broke the law time and time again. The Justice Department wanted to put charges on him. And so now because he feels harassed. He wants three hundred. speaker-1: Well, I don't know if you heard Michael Wolf is suing Melania. Michael Wolf was a, he's a writer. He was writing, he was doing a biography. did on, so he would follow around and he knows the inner workings of Trump and Epstein and things like that. And something came about where Melania was like, I'm going to sue you for a billion dollars if you do X, Y, and Z. So he's like, okay. I'm going to sue you. ⁓ And I'm going to drag you through court. And then you're going to have to come up with all this information of you, Trump and Epstein because I have all that information and I can, I can, and she's been dodging him. And finally, he, he was been trying to serve her papers for months now. And then it's going to go to the court to where I guess if you serve somebody, if you try to serve somebody so many times and they're hiding from you. ⁓ it automatically gets, it's put through the system, pushed through the system to where you're going to have to show up to court. He's going to subpoena her. And so like there's, again, they're, they're falling apart and I can, I can only imagine the little room together. speaker-0: Yeah. Screw them all. ⁓ and you even have people like I don't know, did you see the Dave Chappelle comedy special on Netflix? speaker-1: Pokemon. and I heard a little bit about it. It was pretty good. speaker-0: Well worth the watch. Well worth the watch. He talks about a lot of these touchy subjects. He talks about ⁓ Charlie Kirk. He talks about Israel. He talks about so many things. And just the way Dave Chappelle does it. He makes it make sense. Yeah. And it's hilarious. But the main thing is he makes it make sense. So if you haven't yet, if you're watching this video, go out there and watch the Dave Chappelle special. It's really good. It's really good. He addresses a lot of very important topics. he ends it by saying, you know, spoiler alert. ⁓ yeah, spoiler alert. He he's talking about Charlie Kirk and how, you know, folks are getting crazy. And then he says how his voice has gotten more his voice has gotten louder. And more people are listening to him, and that's when trouble starts to find you. He said, So we need a code. We need a code that when you hear me say the this sentence You know not to listen to me. I have been compromised. And the code is I support Israel. speaker-1: That's it. speaker-0: He flips the mic and walks off. I was like, God. speaker-1: that's it man. There's so many people that have fame that I'm really disappointed in. You know, you have your your because they don't want to. They don't want to jeopardize what they have because that industry is dark. You know, you don't want to get blackballed. speaker-0: Yeah, that I and and it's like that everywhere. Like imagine being a doctor and you're, you know, being a doctor and you're you're telling people, ⁓ hang on, let me read these tea leaves in your teacup, and you're gonna address their ailments through that, you know. Like you're going to be looked down upon, you're not gonna be invited to the doctor meetings and all that stuff. Same thing in Hollywood, same thing, same thing everywhere. If you're an athlete, you get caught. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: Juicing. You know, you get blackballed and stuff like that. speaker-1: Even like, like, you know, like doctors, you know, you're a, you're a specialist, you're, and you say, you know, I vote for, or I'm leaning towards voting for this guy. And then they're like, well, you know what? I can't, the next time we were going to form this little specialist group or something, you know, you're not going to be there. We're not going to invite, you know what I'm saying? And you'll get, you'll, you'll slowly pushing yourself out for what you believe is right. You know, so I could, I could see that as well, know, especially if you're a pro Palestine, you know, free Palestine and like, could see that getting really nasty. You know I'm saying? So that's unfortunate. speaker-0: And it's isn't it funny how all these people talking about I'm pro-life, I'm pro-life, I'm pro-life. speaker-1: Bye. speaker-0: Drop bombs. You know, like how selective are your emotions that you're all up in in American women's business trying to tell them how to live their life. But then when it comes to a whole other nation that you have no connection to. You're just gonna light them up just like that. And again, I always I I always say this pay attention to how they talk about Palestinians. And tell me if that's not the same words that they use when they're talking about us, brown people. Both black and brown. When they talk about us, they talk about the same thing. And then when you start doing research, you're like, wait, what? There was a there was a group of black people in Philadelphia and they bombed that block? Yes, bitch. They bombed a block in Philadelphia. They bombed ⁓ Tulsa. Tulsa used to be the Black Wall Street. They literally dropped bombs. Yeah. And then they turn around and say that we are the violent ones. They turn around and say that we are poisoning the blood of this nation. They're t they're talking all this mess. They talk about how we're savages. They talk about how we don't know. They talk about how dumb we are. speaker-1: We haven't contributed to society. speaker-0: I've heard that one too. I've heard that one too. I'm like, bitch, do you understand how boring baseball would be if it wasn't for Cubans, Puerto Ricans, and Dominicans? You big dummy. It would be if it wasn't for my people, baseball alone. Baseball alone. America wouldn't win World Series. speaker-1: Hell no. speaker-0: They would not speaker-1: They will not be very good. speaker-0: They were not. No, sir. No, sir. I'm not saying it's impossible. I'm saying there's a lot of teams out here that they do really well when you get them jam-packed with Puerto Ricans, Cubans, and Dominicans. speaker-1: 100%. And they're the first ones to be like, they're from Boston. They're like, oh, big poppies, the best, oh, Manny Ramirez. You those are the glory days. Like, okay, you know who they are, right? You know where they come from, right? speaker-0: From here, kid. ⁓ speaker-1: All their sports heroes, they don't count in their real life society. Just only when it comes to holding up a trophy or talking shit at the water pool. speaker-0: Yeah. Ricky Ricardo, Desi Arnaz, Cuban. Yeah. Born and raised in Cuba. Came to America. When he and Lucy created Desi Lu Productions, they ended up being the second biggest Hollywood production company at that time. speaker-1: That's what's up. speaker-0: That's why they don't open doors. We take shit over. speaker-1: Yeah, we make sure we. What's the flavor in that shit? speaker-0: Takes it over. We bit exactly. Exactly. Why you think we everybody's upset when you tell us to stop going to Sasson Goya? ⁓ speaker-1: They take cowboys, speaker-0: It hurts us. speaker-1: You got nothing. Sorry. speaker-0: I mean they're fine, you know, but it's kind of like It's kind of like Ignorance is bliss. When you don't have to do the work to educate yourself and to know what you're talking about, and you just go and you say whatever it is that everybody else is saying. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: You don't have to do the work and everybody's lazy. Everybody here is mentally lazy. Not everybody, but there's a lot of folks that are mentally lazy. speaker-1: What is a good- And that's all people. But like, when we talk to Carlos, about our Aranio Salvaras. speaker-0: Averez araños. speaker-1: There we go. So I'll tell him I messed it up. But he was like, you know, we could go back to like, he can go back to the Dominican, the DR, Cuban, you know, like we go back and there's culture. And then like, there's that missing identity, you know, that there is in white America, right? Like, where do they have their roots at? You know what I'm saying? Especially if they're from here, like generations. You know, they don't, they can't go back to where, where are going to go back to? Yeah, I'm like 15 % Italian, I'm Swedish, I'm English, I'm from here and there, like, but you don't have a home, right? And their home is based off of stuff that they've, they've collected from us. You know what I'm saying? Like all over from the islands, from, you know, from Mexico, from Canada, like from everywhere else. And that is their melting pot and their melting pot. doesn't have like a label on it. So they have to put, is all we have. And there's that sense of disconnect. I could see like, there's a little, there's jealousy, you know what I'm saying? Because there's a finesse to it that they don't have or like, you know what I'm saying? And like, there has to be like, again, we have a community and we have to be like, Like Carlos said, he's like, you know, bring them a dish, invite them to the barbecue. You know what I'm saying? And say, okay, you fit in, but don't take it all from us. Don't take everything from us. You know I'm saying? speaker-0: And that I know that th those videos that he made or that the the video that we chopped up and we put out there, I know it it ruffled feathers the wrong way, maybe the right way. ⁓ I will I will like disagree a little bit because white folks do have culture. ⁓ But when your culture is the dominant culture and you don't let other people's culture exist, your culture ends up being unwanted because people want to be wanted. People want to be understood. People want to share their experiences. People want that's why it's it's it's fun for us to to do these talks and to talk to different people, is because communicating and understanding each other, that's that's what it's supposed to be about. speaker-1: Why is Chicago so beautiful? speaker-0: 'Cause we got everything there. speaker-1: Everything's in there. It is the melting pot. Every culture, every food, every bit of music, everything from all over the world is there. speaker-0: Everything. Mm-hmm. speaker-1: ideas, art. speaker-0: Shout out to New York too. New York has a two, but we understand we understand we speak Chicago. speaker-1: Right, right. Yeah, so like we there's everything there we can identify anybody can identify with anything in any part of it right like anybody can find a home there and everybody's you know barring any like well you know you know watch your neighborhoods but like you're accepted in those neighborhoods you know what I'm saying and like and that's what's missing in speaker-0: And we might bust your chops. We might bluster chops for whatever reason, whatever it is. I'm not trying to pick on anybody, but that's just how we get down. You know, if I care about you, I'm gonna joke around about you because I understand where you come from. speaker-1: Right, right. And that's what's missing everywhere. Like I'm in Florida, you don't have that. You get a little bit over there on Tampa, like St. Petersburg, there's like a little collective of culture, you your neighborhood festivals and things like that where everybody's kind of coming together and ⁓ celebrating each other from where you're from, right? There's not enough of that in the country. speaker-0: Right. speaker-1: You know, like explain, like I, I, I'm half white, but there's a lot of it's mixed up with a lot of stuff. So like, is that blender in that, in that essence of like, I don't have, there's like, where's the home. speaker-0: Right. And at the end of the day, who gives a shit? We're here. Ain't nobody going anywhere. So you the more the more you try to grasp and cling to some shit. If if if if it was worth anything, you wouldn't have to try so hard. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: Because I I'm from Chicago. I come from you know the islands and all that stuff. Wherever I go is Chicago, and I will make you some tostones and some fried yucca. It's easy. I'm not trying to keep that away from anybody. I'm trying to share it with people so you can see, so you can taste something that's different. Yeah, you have French fries, but have you tried a yucca fry? That shit is delicious, sir. Delicious her. Incessant is this incessant thing like I need to have it my way. No, I don't want to press one for English. No da da da. Unfortunately, son, you are in in a country where that's what's supposed to happen. We're supposed to have diversity. We're supposed to be bringing people from all around the world to come here to participate in this. Stew in this melting pot. And then the and then we stick with what works and we throw away the shit that doesn't. Shit that doesn't. Racism has never worked. Homophobia has never worked. This transphobia stuff that just doesn't work. It just doesn't work. So we have to do away with that so we can keep building. speaker-1: Yeah. Yeah, the amount of energy that it takes to hate is like, if you can apply that to just making speaker-0: You're gonna die early. You you will die early. If you live in a constant state of hate, you your body doesn't want to live like that. Stress will kill you. Hate creates stress. If my existence creates hate, therefore creates stress, and it's you that's struggling with my existence. I'm not worried about you. I'm existing. But if my existence causes stress to you and you're just sitting there trying to figure out how to get me and how to get back at me and how to do all these evil things to me, you will die early. If not stress, stress then triggers cancer, it triggers illnesses, it triggers all these things. So you living in a constant state of stress, you will die early. speaker-1: No stress on my back. speaker-0: And ⁓ but ⁓ hey, whenever you see anybody that I'm not in the room and they know me, they'll be like, dude, that motherfucker is always laughing. ⁓ yeah If Carlos doesn't have a la a smile on his face, something is seriously wrong. speaker-1: was just saying that earlier. Like, you know if something's wrong, the way I say hi to you, I'm going through some shit. speaker-0: Yeah. speaker-1: And then, you know, and then as a tell of how you treat people and like, could be like, what's wrong? What could I do for you? How can I help? What's going on? How can I make your day better? You know what I'm saying? Cause they're like, you, out of all people, you can't be having a fucked up day because you're making my day fucked up because you're the one that's supposed to be bringing that joy. speaker-0: I've had that I've had that talk at different jobs, be like, hey, look, we what's going on with you? Because your personality permeates through the entire office. So when you're having an off day, it fucks with everybody. Nobody knows what the fuck to do. speaker-1: Everybody's on pins and needles, man. Like, oh, shit. speaker-0: And it's not even that serious. It's just like, you know, sometimes you walked home at four o'clock in the morning and you're just tired and you're not you don't wanna deal with people's Their things that they're bringing to the table. Sometimes you don't have the energy. Everybody who I ever had a relationship with, that was one of the that's always one of the first things that I say. I said, Look, I'm me. And I understand that's why you're at the table. But understand, there's some days that I don't want to be me. There's some days that I can't be me. I don't have the energy to be me. Don't take it personally. If you ask me, hey, is any to you good out of this stuff? And if I say yes, it's just some shit that I'm working through, I'll be back. But don't stress me out trying to fix some shit that I'm trying to fix. We good. We good. If I needed help, I would ask. speaker-1: But would you though? Because sometimes, you know how we get though, man. He's like, can you do something? I'm good, I'm good. I figure it speaker-0: That's all about stress and and finding the shortcuts. Finding the shortcuts and not even just like in a in a shady way, finding the shortcuts, like ⁓ people that might know something more ⁓ about a certain topic that you're trying to get to. You know? Yeah, yeah. speaker-1: Yeah. speaker-0: ⁓ I just on the channel I talked to ⁓ Dawood Anyabuile. He's a he's a comic book dude. He's he did Brotherman comics. We've had thirty-five years of Brotherman comics. I have no problem if I'm trying to do something comic book related, I will call him up. speaker-1: friend. speaker-0: My friend is those shortcuts. We all have experiences. We all have things that we have learned or that we've have experience in, whatever the case may be. So for me, unless I have a direct problem with a person, I might not go to that person. Until it's time. ⁓ you know, if there if it's a situation where it's gonna be a confrontation or anything like that, I always try to figure out the most constructive way to make that approach. but this whole thing about wasting time to like people are shortcuts. Yeah, people are shortcuts. speaker-1: So. Sure. You got to do the most, what's most efficient. speaker-0: Yeah. Why are you gonna keep banging your head on the wall? Just ask someone where the fuck the door is. speaker-1: Perfect. speaker-0: How do I get out of this room? speaker-1: That's the way to put it, man. That's the best way to put it. I'm gonna make a door with my face. speaker-0: I'll Yeah. I'ma just sit here and keep banging my head on the until the door appears. You could just stop doing that and turn to the side and be like, hey, you know where the door is? speaker-1: or you Yeah, I heard that man. There's certain things man. I don't know. speaker-0: Yeah, there's certain things that it yeah, it might be sometimes like if you see me spinning my wheels on something and I'm having a long day and I'm that's because I'm having fun in my misery. There's something fun. speaker-1: That's a lot to do with it, man. That is a lot to do with it. Let me be in my shit for a second. Yeah. And if I start to drown or I'm wasting too much time, you know, because sometimes part of it is like you want to figure it out. And if you can't figure it out, then you got to be like, all right, well, ⁓ I'm not giving up because I'm trying to find an answer. Right. So I get it. speaker-0: Yeah. It's all about those shortcuts and and limiting stress and and there's sometimes I'm wrestling with this computer and I'm just like, what the hell? Why didn't if I told you to do this, why are you doing that? Jump on YouTube. Jump on YouTube. Or I call with one of my friends. I was doing one of the ⁓ when I was doing Don't Box Me In, one of my ⁓ short animated films here on the channel. I came to a point where I was struggling with trying to render. It was the first time I ever built a render farm, not even in this building. I had a render farm on Amazon servers. And I was trying to feed the thing and I was doing the different scenes and all this stuff. And I it got to the point where I was probably bit off too much more than I should have tried to. I called my boy Charlie. I was, hey, he's a render genius. When it comes to rendering and shit like that, Charlie's that dude. Hey, save me from wanting to throw this computer out the window. speaker-1: That's it, man. You bailed me out of some stuff too, man. So like we, that's what, you know, like if- speaker-0: No paywall no paywall. speaker-1: This is how we meant we navigating how we network. Like if I know something, it's yours. That's how we break bread. That's how we make shit happen. speaker-0: Yeah. Yeah. Would you I I don't trust people that make me pay for information. I'm not convinced you're gonna give it all to me. I just don't. speaker-1: Then why, like, you know, as an artist, it's like, you're producer. I'm an artist. I'm gonna charge you for this beats. Right? Like I understand you're trying to make a living, but if I say there's a runway here and if we do me a solid, you're gonna get your credit and we're gonna make shit happen together. Cause this isn't just the one thing. This is an avenue to generate here, here and here for all of us. So it's like, when, if it's like, need 50 bucks or you go, ⁓ all right. Well later, like, you know what I'm saying? Let me. speaker-0: Yeah. See the thing the thing for me is I'm good at finding solutions. I'm solution my brain is solution oriented. and process. I I I geek out on the process, right? I've been on basketball teams, we've won championships. And then at the after once you win the championship or once you find the solution, you're like, all right, so there's like No more basketball till next fucking season. That sucks. speaker-1: Where we gonna go eat? speaker-0: Meanwhile, the process of getting to the championship, that's what I get off on. I love figuring it out. ⁓ I don't I don't mind needing someone to help do a thing. But maybe maybe my thing isn't what you're interested in. I'm not gonna keep that from I'm not gonna let that keep me from doing the thing that I want. So for the song, for music like you're talking about, yeah, I would love to work with different people. But and I understand you want to get paid and all that stuff. So do I. We could trade work. Bring a lot to the table. We can trade work or I have a I have a a a music ⁓ account with a music fucking place, ⁓ epidemic sound, and I can get beats there. I'd rather work with you. You know, I've I've been in situations where I'm working on a film ⁓ and I wanted specific music. I want a specific music from LA, specific music from Chicago. Everyone ghosted, so I did my own thing. I don't I I'm not it's not that I don't need people. It's that I would prefer to work with people, but I'm not gonna let you keep me from reaching my greatness. speaker-1: Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, I'm not, I guess when it comes to stuff like that, that, is going to be not a one off kind of thing. You know what I'm saying? Right. I don't, I don't, I would rather build a relationship and grow together. Right. And saying, and saying here, here's this. then I, all right, bye. I'm done. You I want to. So then, and then it goes, cause then it evolves. like, then, and then that's kind of how I've done. on stuff and that's how speaker-0: But it goes back to having that team chemistry that we were talking about earlier. speaker-1: And some people don't want to be the team player. then, all right, fine. No, we ain't on it. Thank you for that. speaker-0: Pushing. But you know when I have fifty bucks, I guess speaker-1: And if, if I do say, if I do drop 50, don't be mad that I just dropped a hundred over here or we made a hundred over here or you know what I'm saying? However, however it works out. Don't, don't be mad. Cause I, I went, ⁓ I used what you did, we did together. then I, and then you're like, yo, yo C4. Help me out. speaker-0: I saw post just this morning on Instagram. And I know that I'm gonna butcher it because I don't remember it exactly, but it was something I gave I gave everyone a chance until they said no, now fuck them, something like that. I always come like it's who I am at soul level. I love people, I love talking to them, I love working with them, I love being around them. Groups give me energy. I could be feeling like shit, and then I go out and hang out with some friends, and that just improves my whole being. So I want to do that. But not everyone has the same size gas tank and not everyone has the same amount of gas. And there's some people that are probably tired of being taken advantage of and they just don't see it. And maybe they've had one, two, three, twenty, twenty-five people who have or who have run the game on them and they're just tired of it. I'm not that point now too. I'm at that point. I don't do I don't do things for free. I mean unless depending, but I don't do things for free anymore, you know? ⁓ Yeah, I've tried. I've tried to I've tried to do that team thing. I've tried to work with people. I've worked on different projects for different people. And then when it came time to work on my shit, like all of a sudden now everybody's gone. Everyone's cool. Everyone's too cool to help. speaker-1: I'll see you then too. speaker-0: To me, that's that's school. That's going to school. Okay. That one that one cost me a little bit, but all right, fine. Now we don't have to do that no more. speaker-1: Yeah. And that comes, that comes into growth too. I still, myself, I feel like I, I, I, there's a point where they're like, ⁓ well, how much for this? I'm like, then you're trying to figure out what self-worth is, you know, what, what, what, what, what are your talents really worth? Yeah. Trying to assess that. And I understand. So there's, there's, there is that, you know, I understand you charge for what you charge. Let's, let's do this just off of. what we got going on. know, there's both ways to look at it. And if it's some, some strangers or random person, I get it. I'm going to charge you unless, And then the big thing, especially that I learned from working with you, man, is the trade off finding people. ⁓ we're doing all these shows and we're, we're, you know, we're trying to build people up and in turn. speaker-0: Well, you should. speaker-1: And in turn, we reap benefits as well. like, you know what I'm saying? I understand that too. You know, there's a fine balance on all sides and that comes with growth. You know, so. speaker-0: Yeah. And even this, even this channel, like I've talked to people. They're like, what are you doing with this channel? Nothing. I'm just I talk to people. And then you know, if and then I chop it up and put it on Instagram. That's not ⁓ you trying to be a kingmaker? No, I just talk to people. I'd if I talk to you, if I talk to someone who's trying to be in politics, if I talk to an artist. If I talk to whomever, I'm gonna talk. That's what I do. That's what I do. I talk and then I and then I go and I edit and do all the things. That's what I do. It's gonna happen. I'm gonna do this. If I'm reacting to a video, if I'm talking to you, if I'm talking to them, it don't matter. This is what I do. This is what I decided to do. ⁓ share information, you know, make videos doing all the things. I'm not trying to be a king maker. I'm not trying I'm trying to get you more exposure. And I think you coming and having an intelligent conversation with a couple good looking gentlemen like us, I think that's a benefit. speaker-1: That's a plus. speaker-0: Let's do Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Anyway. should we wrap this one up? Yeah, I can go take my dogs for a walk. All right, brother. Good tapping in. We'll go shop. speaker-1: Yeah, man. Hell yeah.
