• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Happy Monday To everybody out there today.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: A lot went on over the weekend that we got to talk about.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: I'm sure everybody either watched the draft or, if you didn't watch the draft, you watched and were a part of a lot of the drama that went on surrounding the draft with Shador Sanders and Deion Sanders.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: You know we're going to talk about that.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Also got some updates in the Diddy trial that happened on Friday and over the weekend that we got to get into.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: So we're going to get into that today.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Today is one of those Mondays where I couldn't wait to get in here.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Monday couldn't come fast enough because we definitely need to talk and we definitely have some serious issues that we need to tackle today.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Hope everybody.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Weekend was well.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Like I said, hit a one, if you can hear me.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: But one thing you know when you get the flow show no filter, you're going to get it straight.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: You're going to get it straight.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: You're going to get it fair, and today just so happened.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: One of the major topics is dealing with Shador Sanders and his father, deion Sanders, and his father, deion Sanders.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: And this particular subject is one that's near and dear to my heart, if you know, because it deals with being a confident man, especially a confident black man in this world, and raising a young, confident black man.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Because that is what I am and that is what I am doing.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I myself, as you know, have a son who I am raising, uh, to be a confident young man and who has two loving parents and his validation comes he's looking for validation out of his two loving parents, not the world and a lot of people.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: That rubs people the wrong way, and I tell you all the time that, about me, I have no problem with anyone, but I also I don't seek validation in the world.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: My validation comes from my parents.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: I was raised up with love, a lot of it so I look to them to see what they feel about what I'm doing or not doing.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: I could give a rat's ass what the world has to say, but I love the world.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: I love everybody in the world.
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I listen to what they have to say, but I love the world.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: I love everybody in the world.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: I listen to what they have to say.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: But as far as criticisms and or or trying to bring me down, it rolls off of me like a bead of sweat.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Why?
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Because my validation comes from my parents.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: That's who I care about, what they think and that is what we're.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: One of the things and one of the issues that people are having problems with with Shador Sanders.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: See, shador Sanders, let's give you the quick context on the story before I go into it.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Everybody should know Shador Sanders is a quarterback, was a quarterback for Colorado, now the Cleveland Browns, my Browns, as a matter of fact.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: So everybody shout me out and give me some love, because y'all know I wanted Shador Sanders and I was going to be pissed if we didn't get him, and I told y'all that on the other show.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: But Shador Sanders, it was a lot of controversy over this past week and weekend because he was supposed to be picked in the top five picks.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: All kind of experts had him there, but then as we watched the draft, uh, one, one round, two round, three rounds, four, five rounds he didn't go where he was supposed to.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Thank you, libby Bear, and thank you for the super chat and the tip, and I'm going to tell everybody in the chat follow Libby Bear.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: She's doing the right thing.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that I do video as a service to my people and my community, but I definitely would appreciate it if more people would be willing to super chat and give me a tip, uh, like libby bear did.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: So I appreciate that it's one dollar, two dollar, three dollars, five dollars, whatever, but definitely a tip will help motivate me to come here because I could be in my audio world.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Y'all know that I do this as a as, because I love my community, but I don't have to get on video.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: My podcast is an audio podcast.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: So, thank you, libby, I appreciate that, and if anybody else feels in their heart that I deserve a tip, please leave it.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: It could be two dollars, three dollars, it don't matter, it's not a lot, it's just a thought that counts, but anyway and so but.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: But it was real nasty, y'all.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: It was real nasty.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: And you know one thing about this country when we thank you, not dream, I appreciate it.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Like I said, two dollars is is, is plenty.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: I really appreciate I'm not asking for nobody to break the bank, just a tip that you would tip your waiter for giving you food, because I'm giving y'all some food for thought today, and it's all with love, because what I found out is you know one thing about this country when it comes to race, it gets nasty and a lot of innocent bystanders are affected and hit because of it.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: A lot of people and what I mean by innocent bystanders, let me get this out here 90% of the world, we, we are fine.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: It's just the 10 percent that get ugly, mean and nasty.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: In this type of environment that we're dealing with, with the short dealer, sanders and NFL time, black people and white people and brown people are attacked for no reason you know, and and it's sad.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: But one thing about our community we come together, we, this is not a racist bone in this community's body.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Uh, we talk about topics that mean something and we do it with all love, and that's the thing that I appreciate about this community and many of you all appreciate about this community, because we can talk about topics and it's I don't feel, anybody that listens to this podcast, anybody in the chat, I don't see a racist bone anywhere so we can have a talk and and so what I learned is and see when situations like this are going on, when people are saying nasty things about this and that and all of that.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: See, I'm the type of person I've used these opportunities to learn, and so I sit back and I learned a lot, and what I learned is the the basis or the foundation for this, for this racism that may go on and nastiness.
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: A lot of times it's just a lack of understanding.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: See, a lot of times, people may say or dismiss what they don't think is racism, and it's not because they're racist, it's because they actually just don't understand and the the problem lies in some of those people don't seek the knowledge or actively go out to understand.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: They just live in their egocentric world and make judgments that are wrong because they haven't took the initiative.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: So, before I get into it, I'm gonna give everybody some context so they can understand, because the race, we're gonna deal with that, but I'm gonna put it in a context where everybody can understand.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna paint a broad brush right here.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna let everybody understand, and so we have demographics who have been oppressed, oppressed over time.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: We have blacks.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: We have latinos.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: We have women.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: We have uh domestic women, uh, uh victim of domestic violence.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: Uh, for many years were not uh taking seriously or totally understood.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: We have trans communities, gay communities, a lot of different communities who experience mistreatment.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: And when those communities become outraged or they have issues, you have certain people who don't come from those communities that immediately say well, that can't be the case, because this, this, this and this, but you don't come from there, you're not an expert at what they deal with.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: So, instead of dismissing it, ask someone who's been through that, do some research, youtube it.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Don't just dismiss it because you don't understand it.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: See, that's a lazy way to handle an issue.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: That's an easy way to handle an issue is to just dismiss it.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: So let me give you a couple examples before I get even get into the race.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Examples before I even get into the race.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Y'all know I've been a victim of inappropriate touching as a seven-year-old.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I told the story.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: And one thing a lot of people say is when you're dealing with SA and different molesting and different things that happen, a lot of people say, well, a person may come out 20 years later and say it and and then you have a group of people that will say why did it take them so long to say it?
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: That couldn't have happened.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: They gotta be lying, because if it happened to me, I would have told immediately.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Well, it didn't happen to you and so you don't know why someone would.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Would would say something 20 years later.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: But if you ask someone who's been through that, like me, I will tell you that it happened to me at seven years old.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: I didn't mention it till I was 21 or 22.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: And if you ask anybody else that's been through it, they'll tell you the same thing.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: And if you ask anybody else that's been through it, they'll tell you the same thing.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: We go to the Cassie situation.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: You'll have people that say, you know all the horrible stuff that Diddy put Cassie through.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: You'll have people that say, well, why didn't she just leave?
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: She's a part of it because I would have just left.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Well, that's you, but you don't understand.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: There are many people who have different issues and different reasons why they couldn't just leave.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: And if you don't understand it, go ask somebody.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: I see plenty of women in my comments or plenty that have been through, that have been right where Cassie is, have been in DV situations and didn't leave immediately.
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: It took time.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: But again we have people who haven't dealt with that or have a different makeup and because they wouldn't have handled that situation like that, they downplay a Cassie, or they say a Cassie's feeling is invalid.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: You see where I'm going with this.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Now let's go to the racist, the racism and what's at hand right now.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: You have people that say uh, uh, uh, when, when, when people were saying it's, it's, it's a racism and an nfl has racism and the NFL does some racist things because a black quarterback, shador Sanders, who was supposed to go top five, ended up going at pick 144.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Now I'm going to tie this to everything I just said previously and they'll say and I'm bringing up everything that I've seen said in masses they'll say the nfl can't be racist.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: The but the first pick was a black quarterback.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: How could it be racist?
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: That's not racist.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna to educate you.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: That sounds like someone who does not understand the culture and doesn't even understand the issue at all.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: That sounds like the same person that would say I'm not racist.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: I have a black friend.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Having a black friend does not say you're not racist.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: So let me bring it all together now.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I had to set the table because we had the kitchen table today.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: I had to set the table so everybody can understand.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: This isn't just a racism issue.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: This is a issue that a lot of us do not take the time to understand the community that is outraged.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: And today we're talking about the black community, but we could have the same conversation for the women community, the minority community, the black, brown community, anybody.
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: So let me break that down, and so those who want to understand where the racism comes in at and where the outrage is coming from and why, just take a listen and I'm gonna explain it to you.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Nothing to me if you don't understand the problem.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I don't even get bent out of shape by a person who might say something that may rub me the wrong way, because I've realized they just don't understand and if you could give them some understanding, they might say, oh.
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: So let me break it down for y'all.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: The reason why there's outrage and the reason why they say that it was racism is not just because you can't throw it away, just because you say, oh, the first quarterback pick was black.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: No, let me tell you why.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Yes, the first quarterback of the draft pick was black, but he also had parents who come from limited limited means.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not going to say they're poor, but they're not Deion Sanders, and they are just happy to be there.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: And the NFL loves when you're just happy to be there, loves when you're just happy to be there.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: But when you are a black talent that comes from an affluent family with a father and a mother who has their own plan and intentions for you and are vocal about it, as a lot of us are about our children, that's where the NFL has a problem and that is where the racism comes in.
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: So the community outraged black people.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you pick 100 black people.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: What we're saying is the NFL has an issue when you come, when the black talent comes from an affluent family who has a father who is front and center and wants to protect and make sure and be right there and have a say so and what his son does.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: That is the racism.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: So point number one if somebody tells you what a black person is picked, how can it be racist?
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: 80 of the nfl is black.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: How can it be right?
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: That is why, as long as you are a black guy, let me give you an example, and this is this is this is all information, guys.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: I don't want anybody to get.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: And this is all information, guys.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: I don't want anybody to get offended.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: This is for the people who just want to understand the outrage and not judge everybody and attack, because I'm going to go farther with this.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: But the NFL?
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: I'll give you an example Travis Hunter.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: He went number two.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: A great upstanding young man, travis Hunter.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: He went number two.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: A great upstanding young man, travis Hunter, cornerback, playing both sides of the football.
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: Well, when he was, when he, when he was about to be chosen on the NFL draft, that NFL made sure that they announced that Travis Hunter's father was able to seek permission from his probation officer to come see his son drafted.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Why the fuck do we need to know that?
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Do we need to know that?
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: I didn't give a damn that I know, or give a damn that his father seeked permission from probation to to to see his son.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: But this is the NFL, the narrative that the NFL is comfortable with.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: Now I'm going to take it to Shador Sanders and his father.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: If Shador Sanders came from a broken home with a single black mother who barely made ends meet and was coming to the NFL and was just happy to be there and just get us out of the hood, oh, he would have went top five, no doubt.
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: And I'm going to give you an example.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: How many times have you saw a black man drafted by the NFL and they can't wait to do the piece on how this guy came from a broken home and his brother was a victim of gang violence two years ago and he dealt with this and he did with that and then do a whole segment on it.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: I'm sure y'all have seen those segments.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: They because they run them all the time.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: They love that narrative.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: But let me tell you the narrative of this Deion Sanders, and thank you, I'm glad.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: When people then I got I like I said I love somebody said wow, I didn't know that about Travis.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: But, um, I'm, this is all.
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: This is what's informative.
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: Like I said, I really believe 90% of us of the world is not racist and actually beautiful people.
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: I believe there's a small pocket that does that, and I also believe there's a small pocket of people who just don't come from my world, so they don't understand it and see it from where we're coming from.
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: And that is what this show or this segment is designed to do Just give you information that you may not have paid attention to.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: So now I'm going to go to Deion Sanders and Shador Sanders.
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you the factual information that many of you didn't hear, and then I'll go into the nastiness and what went on.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: Let me give you facts.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: Facts Deion Sanders coached his two sons, shador and Shiloh, who are in the NFL now.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: Just uh, deion Shador was drafted and uh and his brother was picked up at, was undrafted but picked up by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: But Deion Sanders, hall of Fam himself coached his two boys and many other players white and black and brown since the time they were in kindergarten.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: From kindergarten he coached them all the way to college, college and in college at Colorado.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: Not only did he have his two sons, but he had many white players and brown players who had been with Deion since elementary and they went on and followed and Deion took them to every team all the way up until college days in Colorado.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Many of those trips and all the parents out there that have athletes and children athletes.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: You know how these trips are expensive and these kids go everywhere, but we enjoy it and we want to see our children have fun and play the sport they love.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Many of those kids, white and black Dion paid for.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: Many of those kids, white and black Dion paid for.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: So imagine the real love and the real passion you have to have to coach kids from the time they are five, six and seven years old, all the way up to 18, 19, 20 years old and 21.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: And they love him.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: But you're not going to hear about that narrative.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: And then now he finally has his sons both sons.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: That journey that he went on led to them being drafted and picked up in the NFL.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Isn't that a hell of a story?
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Isn't that so motivating for all of the parents out there who are grinding and got their kids back from the from the time they're little tykes all the way up into college.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: But you ain't hear much of that on the draft.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: And I'm sure there are people right now saying to themselves wow, I didn't know that.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: You know that's some hellified information to not talk about.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: And I could go on and on about the jerseys and the equipment Deion paid for and just the whole journey.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: But I'm not going to go all the way into that.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: And now I'm going to go, now that you and then, mind you, shador Sanders has a perfectly clean record.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Shador Sanders is a honor roll student.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: George Sanders and Shiloh Sanders are heavily God fearing young man with a father, deion Sanders, who has never said a swear word in his life, and that's including his NFL career where he was mic'd up.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: That's including now having to hear all these people talk shit about his son and he's never said a swear word, and he's heavy into the church.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: But you're not getting none of that on draft day because they want to.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: They rather talk about Travis Hunter's father, who seek permission from probation officer so he could see his son.
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and so we move on.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: So now you took, you've taken, this journey, and what I like for everybody to do is is is uh, put yourself in these shoes.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: You have took your sons on this journey since kindergarten, actually coaching them.
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something to all the parents out there that have kids that play these sports you know that just being the parent to get them everywhere they need to go is a fucking headache and it's hard, but we do it for our children.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Imagine being the actual coach from the time they're kindergarten up to college.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: Imagine the sacrifices that went in.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: And so, after you do all that, you have to hear the world calling your child an arrogant douchebag and is an honor roll student and a student athlete and has made it to achieve his goal, which you're not rolling out of the bed and getting drafted into the NFL.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: A lot of work went in and then, as a parent, you got to sit back and see people who are 30, 40, 50, 60 years old Ridiculing your son, calling him an arrogant douchebag and whatever else they can find out.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: How would you feel Because, I'm being honest, deion Sanders handled it a hell of a lot better than me.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: If that was me and anybody attempts to call my son an arrogant douchebag, I want smoke.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I'm not there yet, where Dion is.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: I will hope to get there one day, but I will.
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: You guys know how I would handle it.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: And so they painted narratives about this young dude, young man, uh, shadir sanders.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: They said he didn't handle his nfl interviews.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: Good, that's because he didn't come into the nfl interview with his hat in his hand and shaking and just happy to be there.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: He came in there into every interview as a black man who was already fulfilled in life and has a passion for football.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: And if you want to pick me up and allow me to us to take this journey together, I appreciate it, but I'm not coming in here, um um, acting like you are my savior, because my savior is god and my other saviors are my parents, and, and so all of these narratives were painted.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Listen, I'm making another point.
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: They said he didn't do well in his interviews and he was arrogant and he had an entourage, which every football player has said.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: Every football player has an entourage, but anyway.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: But all of this stuff is nothing that we can see.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: It's all speculation.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Matter of fact, most of the people that said it were anonymous, so we don't even know so so, so let's just put that in its proper perspective.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: So, let's just put that in its proper perspective.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: All of that is stuff that we can't see.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Now let's talk about what we can see and what we did see in real time.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: We saw Usher, doris Sanders, who was supposed to be predicted to be a top five pick, predicted to be a top five pick.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: We saw him go round one 30 something teams passed him up.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: Round two 30 something teams passed him up again.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Round three 30 something teams passed him up again.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Throughout all of that time did you see how Shador Sanders handled it?
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: He stayed positive.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: He said you know, god doesn't make mistakes.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: He said I look forward to being drafted whenever I'm drafted, and by round three, again round three and four 30 teams passed him again a top five prospect and he tweeted something.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: You know what he tweeted?
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: Thank god for everything.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: This is in the middle of being embarrassed and being humiliated as far as in front of the whole entire world, while people who are double and triple his age are dancing on his grave.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: Now I'm going to ask you something Is that how an arrogant douchebag handles himself?
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: Because that's what we can see in real time.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking about some speculation or some shit, they saying that we don't know, we weren't there, we just have to go off people words.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Well, let's watch in real time.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: He didn't utter a negative word while he's being ridiculed in front of the entire world.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here to tell you do not let them paint narratives when you're seeing how somebody is acting in real time.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: We all know arrogant douchebags.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: We all know we all know who they are and we know that arrogant douchebags are not going to sit around while the whole world dances on their grave and not utter a negative word, period.
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: So, while they want to paint narratives about what happened behind the scenes or stuff that we can't put our finger or eyes on.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: I ask you all to give the same grace to this young man as you would want, because what we can see in real time does not add up to an arrogant douchebag.
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: Another point in the middle of him being humiliated.
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: In the middle of him being humiliated, in the middle of him being embarrassed.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: If you don't even think it was humiliating, at the very least you can say it was embarrassing.
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: And so, in the middle of him being embarrassed in front of the whole world and not being chosen, then he gets a prank call from another NFL team's son non-black.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: A prank call, acting like they are choosing him.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: But it was all a prank.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Have you ever seen this type of behavior?
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Be honest.
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: But again, shador Sanders was asked about the prank call, which was embarrassing.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: I'm sure that ripped his heart out.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: I would have been hurt.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: But guess what Shador Sanders said?
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: Shador Sanders said well, I believe it was a childish act, but I also believe we all do childish things here and there.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: See, in the middle of the storm, shador Sanders is giving someone grace who doesn't look like him, still giving him grace when many of us would feel like he didn't deserve any grace.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: And so I ask you again does that sound like an arrogant douchebag?
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: And I'm only asking you because I want you to judge for yourself off stuff you can see yourself.
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Not judge off of what somebody's saying happened in some behind the scenes shit that we have no idea what really went on.
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: We can't judge it for ourselves, but these particular instances happen right in front of our face.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: But, as like I tell you, in the world and how the world goes and I'm a testimony to this Evilness always backfires.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Evilness always backfires.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is this player, shador Sanders, who is supposed to be an arrogant douchebag, who isn't this, who isn't that, he isn't a good quarterback.
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: All the things they said didn't do anything but make him the biggest star, larger than life, of this draft.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: And I feel sorry for the other young man who worked their butt off to be drafted.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about black players, white players, brown players, chinese, whoever.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: I feel sorry for them because the evilness that surrounded this situation Actually took away from their moment because this became the Shador Sanders draft.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: So, whatever you say, he isn't oh, he's undoubtedly the biggest star and the biggest story and the biggest person in this draft.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: See, kendrick Lamar once said you can try to rig the game, but you can't fake influence.
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: This is what he was talking about.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: So, because they felt like Dion was too cocky or his son was too cocky, they felt like they were going to teach him a lesson.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: In other words, they tried to rig the game.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: They took a top five player and they and he was only and chosen at 144th in like the fifth round.
• 33:48
  Speaker 1: They tried to rig the game, but you can't fake influence.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: So, at the end of the day, you tried to teach Deion and his son a lesson and in that process, you made him bigger than life.
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: You made a bunch of community and I'm not talking about just black people, it's black, white, brown.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Everything has rallied behind this young man to the point that when he finally plays his first NFL game, the first pass he completes will break the internet.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: But NFL, you tried to rig the game, but you can't fake influence.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: See, shador Sanders, what do I always tell you?
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: I love when trolls come into my comments.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: I love when trolls come into my chat because it's an opportunity to show the world how much poise I have, how much confidence I have, that I don't get outside of myself because some troll comes in the comments.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: You've heard me say that many times, and this is why my movement is the fastest growing movement online.
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: Well, the same thing happened to Shador.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: All the nastiness that surrounded him only gave him an opportunity to show the world that I'm a God-fearing young man.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: I'm an understanding young man.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: I'm a young man who will even show compassion for someone who doesn't even look like me, who chose to prank me as one of the cruelest ways you could prank someone, and he still showed him grace.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: And that didn't do anything but make more and more people rally around Shador Sanders.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: And I ain't just talking about black people, I'm talking about good people, all people, because we all have children and we all will stand up for our children.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: It don't have anything to do with race.
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: You want to know an example?
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: You remember Bronny James?
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: I think y'all heard of that name.
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: Well, bronny James went through a similar situation.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: He almost died and still continued his journey and ended up in the NBA because of a father and because of the situation he came from.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: But why am I bringing that up?
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Because the ridicule and the criticism of Bronny James crossed the line and LeBron had to check somebody, and it wasn't no white guy or no white girl.
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: Lebron went straight to Stephen A Smith, another black man, and straightened his ass out.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: So again, it don't have anything to do with race, and anybody out there who are loving parents would agree.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: I don't care if you purple or green.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: You attack mine and you're out of bounds.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: I'm coming to check your ass Now.
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: Throughout all of that Shador Sanders situation and Dion didn't come out and and say anything out of bounds.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: But the media or the NFL or the detractors will.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: They want to paint a picture.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: That's just not true.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: We're seeing it with our own eyes.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: See, this is the whole basis for this podcast, because the whole of my whole life the media has painted pictures from shit we couldn't even see.
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: But what?
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: But?
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: But you said you expect me not to believe my own eyes and ears and go with your narrative.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: Well, here at the flow, no Filter.
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: We don't do that.
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: We judge a situation off of what we see and know and how we feel, not how the media tells us what went on on, some area behind the scenes that we don't have, we're not privy to at all.
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: And so, again, like I said, I believe 90 percent of the world is is cool, all races.
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: Bunch of beautiful people, but it's that 10 who use this opportunity to uh say and, and, and, and, and, put out in the universe the nasty thoughts that are in their head regardless, and now they just have a time and a and a time and a place to say it, and then what happens is that filters down to everybody.
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: Next thing, you know, we're we're being nasty to each other, and we don't even have a problem with each other.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: It started from the nfl using certain tools and painting certain narratives for their own benefit, because chaos and negativity sells.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: Chaos and negativity sells.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: And so corporations will do anything for a dollar.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: They don't care if that means that we are going to be fussing and fighting and hating on each other and and bickering and being just flat out nasty to one another because of some game that the NFL is playing.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: And so what happens is the NFL plays this dangerous game of toeing the line and then they go overboard and then they have to overcompensate.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: And I'll give you an example.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: Why do you think we have this Super Bowl show that some of you, a lot of you, are like?
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: Why is all this rapping?
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: You know people want other type of.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Because the nfl is overcompensating from this type of stuff that they did years ago.
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: The nfl was so dismissive to the, to the black man's plight in this world, that it got to the point where players were ready to fucking protest and and boycott the league, which is made up of 80 percent of people that look like me.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: And so this was years ago.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: And so what happened was the NFL in a panic.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: They had to say, well, we, we need to do something about race relations.
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: You can look up the the the article.
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: So what they did was they got jay-z and brought him in to do the halftime show to, for lack of better words, add more blackness to the super bowl and nfl, and that is the result of this halftime shows that we have that a lot, and some of you are like, wow, why is it all this rap?
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: Or are people not into Kendrick Lamar?
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: And people complained about it.
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: But that came from this same type of thing, and the NFL was about to run into that problem again.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: And so, by round four, when Shador hadn't been picked, patrick Mahomes, who has been a leader in being fair and standing up for what he believes in, for his community and all communities, patrick Mahomes finally tweeted out this is crazy.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: Stephen A Smith said this is crazy, but not just black people, trump, which is why I say you never can just pin nobody as one way or the other, because trump for lack for what everybody wants to say about trump he was the first big name person to come out and say shador sanders not being picked is a.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: It is crazy and stupid.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: And and what are the NFL owners doing?
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Mel Kiper, people from all walks of life were coming out and it was about to be a shit storm.
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: And so the Cleveland Browns, who had just selected a quarterback in the third round or fourth round I can't remember that next morning, mysteriously, and it didn't even make no sense, but guess what they did, because I believe that call went out to say, hey, this teaching Dion and Shador lesson thing is about to blow up in our face, so go ahead and pick him now, because no, nobody can explain why the Browns, my Browns, picked a quarterback in the third or fourth round that nobody was going to pick anytime soon.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: And then the next day, now you trade up to pick Shador Sanders.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: Nah, the call went out that this is about to go the wrong way and let's abort mission now, because the NFL has been there before.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: When you go too far, you're going to have hell to pay, and that's how he was chosen.
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: And so, just to give you an idea, there was a particular a listener of this show who was a victim of the innocent bystander of this whole shit storm that the NFL caused.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: That that has us people arguing with each other when we actually don't have a problem with each other.
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: We actually love all the kids.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Nobody wants to be outraged.
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: Nobody turned on the NFL draft and said, hey, let's see, I can't wait to be outraged.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: We are all looking to see who our team got, to applaud all the players chosen.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: I don't care what color you are.
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: I have an appreciation for the hard work that it takes to not only be a student athlete but to get to the NFL draft.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: But then the NFL came playing their little games and they almost shot themselves in the foot.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: But then the NFL came playing their little games and they almost shot themselves in the foot.
• 44:47
  Speaker 1: But to show you how this affects us and why I come to my platform and I give information, because, like I said, some people just don't understand, because they don't come from a certain culture.
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: Just like I'm not a woman, I don't understand a woman.
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: I can't totally understand a woman that will stay in a domestic violence situation but I'm not going to say, well, if somebody hits me, I'm just going to leave, so I don't know what's wrong with her.
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: No, I'm going to ask a woman, or ask women who have been in that situation, or I'm going to do some research and, after research and after talking to to people, now I do understand how a woman can stay in a domestic violence situation for a while and it takes her a while to build up the strength to leave.
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: You can't just dismiss it because you don't come from it.
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: That don't have nothing to do with black, white.
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: That has to do with just being a human.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: See, this is why my community grows and why I am kicking the ass of every media and podcaster out there without needing a guest, because I understand that situations or issues that aren't from my world, that don't mean they don't exist.
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: That just means you need to ask a motherfucker that went through it.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: And that's what I do.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: If I don't understand it, I'm going to talk to somebody who has went through it so that I can understand it.
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: A lot of people don't do that.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: They just judge it based on their own experiences and what they believe, and then they shut it down and dismiss it.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: And if we're going to do that, what is the whole fucking point?
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: Anybody could dismiss a problem and say it doesn't exist.
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: What is the point of that?
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: What is the value in that?
• 46:33
  Speaker 1: And so I want to read this and just give you an idea of innocent people who are attacked, and it'll also show you why we appreciate this community that we built, where we can talk honest and not fear being judged like we're some type of criminal or like I'm some type of bad guy, because I'm just being giving you information with love.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: I don't have a a, a bad hateful bone in my body.
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: I love everybody.
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: I enjoy different perspectives, different cultures, different outlooks.
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: I know what my outlook is.
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: That's boring to me.
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: I like to know what everybody else is thinking and going through.
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: So this, this particular person, sent me a message.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: She says hey, flo, I just wanted to reach out about the situation with the sanders post.
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: I had commented on your facebook post with some additional information, genuinely hoping to hear your thoughts.
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: Unfortunately, things escalated quickly and people started getting really nasty.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: I normally don't delete comments.
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: Like you always say, I stand on my business, but it crossed a line and became too toxic.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: Our flow show family has always been a space for open, respectful conversation.
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: I love that she says that, because that is exactly what the flow show family is about.
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: Let me continue.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: She says and I truly appreciate that this time, though, it just got out of hand.
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: I want to apologize if deleting my comment ends up affecting your interactions in any way.
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: That was never my intention.
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: I just really value the time and energy I have each day and I won't let negative negativity from people who don't even know me bring me down or sit back and watch them bring others down.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: Thanks for understanding and much love to you always.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: That's what I'm talking about.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about when there's no understanding and people don't seek to understand before they attack.
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: Innocent bystanders are often attacked and wounded.
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: But see, the thing is is we have our community, but facebook and instagram and tiktok is a whole nother world and you see the nasty comments that that, that that particular uh person right there is a beautiful woman, beautiful spirit.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: I don't know what she said, because y'all know I get thousands and thousands of comments.
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: I don't see them all.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: I try to respond to the ones that I see, but I never even got a chance to see what her comment was or whatever.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: But I believe that by her being because she's a white female, she may have asked some questions that someone who doesn't know her would just assume.
• 49:38
  Speaker 1: This is some white woman talking against whatever, don't know that.
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: This is a person who uh uh has it's not racist at all and is an avid listener and was asking me who she has a relationship through this podcast with something that she had understanding with.
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: But people don't care about that, they just attack.
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: And so, again, I'm grateful for this community that we built because we can have these type of conversations, and I wish I can control the community outside of this community, but I can't.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: And so we all know Facebook can be a nasty world, instagram and TikTok can be nasty at times, but here we have each other.
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: You can ask me anything.
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to get offended, I'm going to appreciate the fact that you asked me, and this is how we come together and start to understand each other is, first of all, we have to be comfortable with uncomfortable questions and understand that every question that may not be a question you want to hear does not mean that there is nastiness or ventriloquism or any malicious intent behind it.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: Sometimes people just want to know an answer to a question that they can't ask their family or their particular close friends because they don't come from that world.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: It's sad, but true.
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: They even talked about Shador Sanders.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: They tried to say, well, he's rapping and he's not focused.
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: Well, let me tell you a list of uh people who rapped, and I'll save the best for last.
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: Of athletes uh, do you know a guy by the name of Kobe Bryant, the beloved Kobe Bryant?
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: Oh, he was rapping.
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: He had an album out before he won any championship.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: We all love Kobe, don't we?
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: Allen Iverson was rapping.
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: He never won a championship, but he was an athlete that rapped and we all love AI.
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: Allen Iverson was the original AI before this new AI came out.
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: Shaquille O'Neal Anybody ever heard of him?
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: He actually went platinum and was rapping and went on to win championships.
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: Kevin Durant also rapped and I'm gonna say the best one for last.
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: You know who else was an athlete that rapped and made songs?
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: Deion Sanders, shador Sanders' father.
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: So now we're going to criticize a kid for something that many athletes have done, including his own damn father.
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: So now we're going to criticize him for being like his dad.
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: We're going to criticize him for being like his dad.
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: So, again, people from opposite sides of the spectrum have spoke out.
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: Many people are behind us, the door, door, and that's why I say but, to put this all in context, there are thousands and thousands of beautiful people who supported them, that that look in all color, all creed.
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: We're just speaking on that small pocket that is putting out information and narratives that are unfair, and I want to correct that for those who care.
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: If you're not looking to understand, this isn't for you.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: Go into your echo chamber.
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: Echo chamber is.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: It is a place or a community or whatever you surround yourself, where only your views are echoed and you don't know shit about anything outside of that.
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: And one thing about an echo chamber there's no growth.
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: No growth happens because you just you're just around people who echo in the same thing.
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: You know and and you believe, and you, that's all that's it.
• 53:52
  Speaker 1: So I just want to be the person to give people who really do just want to understand.
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: That's who I'm talking to.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: I don't give a damn about the closed-minded people that just have their own opinion and base everything for where they come from.
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: I'm not talking to them, I won't even waste my time with them.
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: I'm doing this for the people who genuinely either may not understand the situation and why, and may look at it and say, well, I don't see how that could be racist.
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: I don't see how that could be racist.
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: Well, I just broke it down to you for that reason because, like I said, a lot of people may not.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: If you don't come from it, it's understandable that you don't understand.
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: How could you?
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: But if you want to know what a black man, a confident black man in the public eye who is raising a young black man, goes through, ask me, because that is exactly who I am and what I am.
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: So, to end this particular segment on a positive note, I want to shout out and show an appreciation to all the players who were drafted.
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: I want to show an appreciation to all the parents of those players who were drafted, because your son being drafted is not only a testament to his hard work, his discipline, his discipline.
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: It is also a testament to the parents, to you guys, for your hard work and your discipline, and I want to apologize on behalf of the NFL and on behalf of all the nasty motherfuckers who took that spotlight away in order to condemn a 23-year-old kid named Shador Sanders that ain't doing nothing but working hard and living his dream and doing the things that a lot of 22 and 23 year olds do.
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: But but of those things that he's done, that a lot of 22 year olds and 23 year olds do, let me tell you some things he hasn't done.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: He's not drinking, he's not smoking, he's not getting in trouble, he's not in jail, he's not hitting women, he's not essaying.
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: He's not doing any of that.
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: He's just playing football, rapping and wearing some jewelry, just like his dad, primetime Deion Sanders, the greatest cornerback to have ever lived, and you can't put a speck of dirt on his name.
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: And he's been in the public eye for what?
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: 30 plus years.
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: So, without further ado, let's get to Diddy.
• 57:10
  Speaker 1: Shout out to everybody in the NFL, and I hope everybody left that segment with a little more understanding about what we go through on both sides.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: I shared you with what a black man, a black child, went through, but I also shared with you what a white woman who just was asking for clarity how she's attacked.
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: I want everybody to understand and appreciate and respect everybody.
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: That is the goal.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: It's a goal that I may never achieve fully, but, damn it, I will die trying.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Now to the Dittler.
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: The Dittler we were getting close time to the trial and things are heating up.
• 58:16
  Speaker 1: And just to catch you up, to get you up to speed, they are admitting the cassie tape.
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: Uh, remember there was some controversy or emotions to not have that, uh admissible to the tape that shows him putting hands, feet and paws all over Cassie will be admitted.
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: Another update Diddy turned down a plea deal and now faces life in prison.
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: Now, the term of that plea deal we are supposed to know Thursday, this Thursday, the judge said he will make that public, or public to the court, or whatever his words.
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: I forgot the exact words he used, but the bottom line is we are supposed to know Thursday, this Thursday, what that exact plea deal that Diddy turned down and many people in the know said Diddy was stupid for turning it down.
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: I don't know the plea deal so I can't comment on it.
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: And, as you know, sometimes they tell us a day that something is going to be revealed and then it don't go.
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: It don't fucking get revealed.
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: So I'll be keeping an eye on it.
• 59:28
  Speaker 1: But for those uh keeping up Thursday, mark that in your calendar.
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: We are supposed to learn whatever that plea deal that diddy turned down.
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: We're supposed to know the terms of that.
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: Uh, also, another uh, uh update.
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: Well, not even just an update, but uh, they kind of gave us a hint into the uh, what diddy's defense is going to be.
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: Uh, they are trying to say that diddy didn't do anything wrong or didn't know he was doing anything wrong.
• 59:59
  Speaker 1: They are saying that they're calling it he was just living a swinger lifestyle and that was it.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to jive, but we'll see.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 1: So, so his defense looked like that's going to be kind of the basis of his defense that he was living a swinger lifestyle.
• 1:00:24
  Speaker 1: He was living a swinger lifestyle and didn't know what he was doing was wrong.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: And another thing I've always been told ignorance of the law is not it does not excuse you from the law.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: So we'll see how that pans out.
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: Uh, for diddy.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: Um, and another thing y'all know that that young lady, uh, christina Corum they are really turning up the heat on her and she's been Diddy's chief of staff for years and she has shown up in multiple lawsuits as the main person who aided and abetted and helped Diddy carry out this criminal, alleged criminal empire, and so many believe she may be the star witness.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: And if she's not the star witness, she may be his co-defendant before it's all said and done.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: So, christina quorum.
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 1: This article comes from nbc news, not my favorite news.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: Uh outlet, nbc news is not my favorite but, as I always tell you, we try to spread it around.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: Uh sean combs, former chief of staff, is accused in three lawsuits of aiding his alleged sex abuse.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: A day after sean combs and his girlfriend, uh cassie settled, an explosive lawsuit was filed against quorum.
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: What was it was?
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: It was settled and then here comes uh combs was with christina quorum.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: At that time, combs referred to Christina Corm publicly as his everything.
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: She was among a handful of people accredited during his BET Awards acceptance speech as one of his main people to help him do whatever he was doing.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: Now we find out whatever he was doing was a little you know.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: So now her name is.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: As closer we get to trial, there's more and more people.
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 1: There's more and more people that are starting to really feel like Corm's role in this Diddy enterprise is about to be exposed and she, amongst other people, is one of the people that knows a lot of the Diddy secrets, and Rodney Jones and others have pointed to Christina Corm as one of the main people who helped Diddy.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: In a statement last month to Rolling Stone, corum said For months, horrific accusations have been made about me in various lawsuits regarding my former boss have been made about me in various lawsuits regarding my former boss.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: These false allegations of my involvement are causing irreparable and incalculable damage to my reputation and the emotional well-being of myself and my family.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: I have never condoned or aided and abetted the sexual assault of anyone, nor have I ever rugged anyone and abetted the sexual assault of anyone.
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: Nor have I ever rugged anyone.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: The idea that I could be accused of playing a role in, or even being a bystander to, the grape of anyone is upsetting, disturbing and unthinkable.
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: This is not who I am and my heart goes out to all the victims of essay.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: I am confident that the allegations against me will be proven to be untrue.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: Well, there's one problem that Christina Korn is going to have is they have voice messages Of her telling people to go get different things that were inappropriate for Diddy.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: She is her telling people to go get this and go get that.
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: Uh, she also, uh uh is chief of staff for years and, with the flagrant way Diddy carried about, went about his business, uh, it's gonna be hard for people to believe she didn't know anything that was going on.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: So We'll see how it pans out comes trial time.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 1: But as of right now, as of right now she's she's looking like she's in hot water y'all.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: And another development that could have something to do with Diddy, or it may not have anything to do with Diddy, but everybody is talking about TD Jakes.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 1: You know long rumor to be a Diddy that he was at Diddy parties and you know a lot of rumors that him and Diddy were closer than they would like you to believe.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: A lot of speculation on why td jakes, who is a pastor or bishop, uh, why he was even at a ditty party.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: But with all that speculation, people are questioning and and want to understand, or trying to understand why would?
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: Why?
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: It's ironic that he is stepping down when the trial.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: The timing of it is crazy because the trial is about to start in what two weeks?
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: And he has already stepped down.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: So we uh, we definitely are going to be watching this closely.
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 1: I can't say why he stepped down.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: If it has anything to do with Diddy, is he going to be brought into trial or what but what I can say is that people, including me, are watching closely to the development and to see if TD Jake stepping down has anything to do with this upcoming trial.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: Other than that, we'll be paying close attention.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: Shout out to everybody who who has supported the community matter of fact.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 1: You know, at this time we have to uh, uh, shout out those who make this podcast a reality and allow us to come on here, talk the truth, have open dialogue and support for one another, without worrying about what big corporations or this person or that person saying.

• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: But we could come in here and have uncomfortable conversations with love and understanding, in the hopes that you know maybe some words I say, maybe some words my listeners say when I read their comments.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: You never know what words can help someone in their day or just help them understand this world we live in, where we're all coming from different walks of life, we all have different experiences, we all come from different cultures, and so it's under it is.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: It is important that we, you know, take the time to not just dismiss each other's problems and plights and I'm speaking about all people.
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 1: We don't want to just dismiss it, we want to learn that.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: You'd be a surprise.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: You'd be surprised how valuable and how rewarding it is when you just take a moment.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: You may not understand what that particular community is outraged with about, or that community or women or this or that.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 1: You'd be surprised the value in just taking an extra few minutes or taking an extra time to do a little research or to talk to somebody that comes from that community and you get an understanding and it actually feels good because you're like, oh, I would have never known that.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: So happy Monday to everybody.
• 1:10:41
