- 1:12Speaker 7: up with the boyfriend that I've been once for three
- 1:14Speaker 7: years because his girlfriend, his side girlfriend, thinks that I'm
- 1:19Speaker 7: her stalker.
- 1:20Speaker 1: Wait a minute, his side girlfriend, did you lost the stalker?
- 1:24Speaker 5: M hm.
- 1:25Speaker 4: Explain this to me a little bit more now, So.
- 1:28Speaker 8: Okay, okay.
- 1:29Speaker 7: So I've been with this boy for like almost three years, okay,
- 1:33Speaker 7: and when I came out of my relationship, he came
- 1:38Speaker 7: out of his relationship for a long time, and he
- 1:41Speaker 7: still wanted to explore and all that, and we didn't
- 1:43Speaker 7: know what we was. So he told me like, oh,
- 1:47Speaker 7: I'm talking to this one, I'm talking to that one
- 1:49Speaker 7: and talking that one. So it's like, okay, whatever. So
- 1:52Speaker 7: Tom had passed and he has started moving his stuff
- 1:55Speaker 7: into my apartment and we started establishing and thinks I
- 1:59Speaker 7: worked for the city. I put him on my assurance.
- 2:02Speaker 7: He started established smouldn't make him plans. I didn't realize
- 2:06Speaker 7: how strong of a connection he was making with other girls.
- 2:10Speaker 7: But then he comes to me one day and tells
- 2:12Speaker 7: me that's the other girl.
- 2:14Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, I've heard enough. So you're not his only girl.
- 2:17Speaker 7: No, I'm not his only girl.
- 2:18Speaker 4: No, okay, So what are you calling her to ask?
- 2:20Speaker 3: But she's upset because she put him on insurance.
- 2:24Speaker 7: I wasn't asking anything.
- 2:25Speaker 1: Oh, you just you're just mad at yourself for being stupid. Hey, yes,
- 2:28Speaker 1: how old are you?
- 2:29Speaker 7: Thirty four?
- 2:30Speaker 4: Thirty four years old? How many girls has.
- 2:32Speaker 6: This man got?
- 2:33Speaker 3: Who knows how.
- 2:35Speaker 4: Many East infections have you had? Since?
- 2:37Speaker 1: Your pH balance is always hard?
- 2:41Speaker 4: Stop it?
- 2:41Speaker 3: Come on? Oh okay, I understand though, because you put
- 2:46Speaker 3: him on insurance, he moved in. You thought it was
- 2:48Speaker 3: more serious than it was, and he was still playing
- 2:50Speaker 3: the field.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Well see see, I want to tell you that that
- 2:53Speaker 1: you know you can do better.
- 2:54Speaker 7: That's not the part that I'm mad at. The part
- 2:56Speaker 7: that I'm mad at is that I have nothing to
- 2:58Speaker 7: do with other relationships and I'm being too of being
- 3:04Speaker 7: a random girl. So why would you do you notice that?
- 3:07Speaker 5: Why would you even care?
- 3:08Speaker 3: You shouldn't even speak care.
- 3:10Speaker 7: This is what I'm saying. You've ever been a chub
- 3:12Speaker 7: or something who absolutely did not do yes and just frustrated.
- 3:17Speaker 7: But then he's also super relief because it's like you
- 3:21Speaker 7: never trust me in the beginning. But it's just super fussing.
- 3:25Speaker 3: Stops it.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Understand your upset, but stop cursing. But understand that the
- 3:30Speaker 1: truth don't need no defense. It only needs witnesses. So
- 3:33Speaker 1: as long as you know the truth, that's the most
- 3:35Speaker 1: important thing. But the truth is you just wanted this
- 3:38Speaker 1: man's holes. Now you need to ask yourself, do you
- 3:40Speaker 1: just want to be one of this man's holes or
- 3:42Speaker 1: do you want to be more to somebody? Because if
- 3:44Speaker 1: you want to be more to somebody, then you need
- 3:46Speaker 1: to go find that somebody because it's not gonna be
- 3:48Speaker 1: with him.
- 3:49Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sorry you went through that, mama, but take
- 3:51Speaker 5: him went through it.
- 3:52Speaker 4: He's still going to it.
- 3:53Speaker 5: Now, take him off.
- 3:54Speaker 4: She ain't gonna do nothing.
- 3:55Speaker 9: Still.
- 3:57Speaker 4: Yeah, who that talking to you in the background.
- 3:59Speaker 7: Nobody that's on the radio?
- 4:01Speaker 1: Oh yeah, man, you just another one of his holes.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Man and I and you know, I think that you
- 4:05Speaker 1: deserve better than that. But you know, he did keep
- 4:07Speaker 1: it one honey with you from the beginning. It's not
- 4:09Speaker 1: like he lied in you.
- 4:09Speaker 3: He didn't lie, And y'all didn't have a conversation. You
- 4:11Speaker 3: just assumed because he moved in. But that was not
- 4:14Speaker 3: a great assumption, obviously.
- 4:17Speaker 1: I know it's hard. I know it's hard. Three four
- 4:19Speaker 1: years of raw sex. Three you know what I'm saying,
- 4:22Speaker 1: him blowing in your bookie. I know it got I
- 4:23Speaker 1: know it got you a little open man, but you
- 4:25Speaker 1: know you deserve better.
- 4:27Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Mama.
- 4:29Speaker 4: Have a good day.
- 4:30Speaker 5: Damn man. She's take him off insurance right now.
- 4:33Speaker 3: You get it off your chest. Eight hundred five eight five,
- 4:36Speaker 3: one oh five on the breakfast club.
- 4:37Speaker 5: Good morning, the breakfast Club, right right, ray.
- 4:45Speaker 3: Yo, Charla man day, what up are we lying?
- 4:48Speaker 6: This is your time to get it off your chest?
- 4:50Speaker 8: I got an indoor pool, outdoor pool.
- 4:53Speaker 5: We want to hear from you on the breakfast club.
- 4:54Speaker 10: Get on the phone right now.
- 4:56Speaker 8: He'll tell you what it is.
- 4:57Speaker 6: We lie, Hello, who's this?
- 5:00Speaker 10: It's done to the Haitian therapist?
- 5:03Speaker 4: You forever, Sandra? Where you've been at?
- 5:06Speaker 10: I know, working? You know a busy seasons for depression
- 5:10Speaker 10: and anxiety.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Yes it is seasonal. Seasonal depression is the real thing
- 5:14Speaker 4: around this time of you.
- 5:15Speaker 10: So I listened to the doctor Scheyenne Bryant interview, and
- 5:19Speaker 10: I just wanted to make clear that she is not
- 5:22Speaker 10: a licensed therapist. Some of the things she was saying
- 5:25Speaker 10: was pretty concerning, especially with saying people can't change. That's
- 5:31Speaker 10: the foundation of our whole you know thing, is that
- 5:35Speaker 10: you can change, and that it would be completely unethical
- 5:39Speaker 10: to see a wife and a husband separately and then
- 5:43Speaker 10: together for couples counseling. That is not something that counselors
- 5:47Speaker 10: can do.
- 5:49Speaker 1: I think people took out it, they took it out
- 5:51Speaker 1: of context when she said you can't change. So she
- 5:53Speaker 1: was just saying that you got to be willing to
- 5:55Speaker 1: shift something in you first before you make a permanent change.
- 5:58Speaker 2: No, because even even you questioned it, like you know
- 6:03Speaker 2: what I mean, Like she she said that asking you question.
- 6:07Speaker 3: They don't change. People pivot, she said.
- 6:12Speaker 4: She said that the basis starts.
- 6:15Speaker 10: To therapy that you can change. And so doctor Elliott Khannie,
- 6:19Speaker 10: he is like my number one. If it wasn't for him,
- 6:23Speaker 10: I wouldn't have gone into private practice because solution focused
- 6:26Speaker 10: brief therapy is my favorite.
- 6:29Speaker 5: It's the best modality.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Yes, he is.
- 6:32Speaker 4: It is absolutely the best.
- 6:33Speaker 1: You everybody should pick up Elliot Cohanne's book, Change Your Questions,
- 6:36Speaker 1: Change Your Futures out right now.
- 6:38Speaker 10: And thank you for calling because you can't change, no problem.
- 6:41Speaker 1: And I got the Family Therapist podcast on the Black
- 6:44Speaker 1: Effect iHeart Radio podcast network, hosted by Elliott Khan.

- 8:05Speaker 3: We got special guests in the building. We have doctor
- 8:08Speaker 3: Cheyenne Bryant.
- 8:09Speaker 1: Welcome buff And you are one of the people in
- 8:14Speaker 1: the mental health space.
- 8:14Speaker 4: Who are who's us? Who's really using social media?
- 8:17Speaker 6: Right right?
- 8:18Speaker 1: Like you know, because you've used it to you know,
- 8:20Speaker 1: elevate your platform and just elevate the conversation around mental health.
- 8:23Speaker 4: So I applaud you on.
- 8:24Speaker 11: Yeah, thank you.
- 8:24Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
- 8:25Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 8:26Speaker 13: I always say I didn't get into this field to
- 8:27Speaker 13: become a celebrity. But God has his own plans, right,
- 8:30Speaker 13: So I literally am my master's and my doctorate program.
- 8:33Speaker 13: I remember my professor was saying, everyone who's gonna get license,
- 8:36Speaker 13: raise your hand. I didn't raise my hand everybody else did,
- 8:38Speaker 13: and he's like, Doc, you going you know with Shayan
- 8:40Speaker 13: at that time, you're going.
- 8:40Speaker 2: Through all this not your license.
- 8:42Speaker 13: I'm like no, because I'm gonna be on a platform
- 8:44Speaker 13: where I'm able to change lives. Didn't think that it
- 8:46Speaker 13: ended up being a platform where to this magnitude one
- 8:49Speaker 13: and then to the place where literally I didn't want it,
- 8:52Speaker 13: the whole celebrity status and lifestyle. And not that I'm
- 8:54Speaker 13: saying I don't want it now, I don't like it,
- 8:56Speaker 13: It's just this is not where I expected it to go.
- 8:58Speaker 13: But again, if God needs to use a celebritiness, you know,
- 9:01Speaker 13: whether the celebrity status brings me the naysayers or the sayers,
- 9:05Speaker 13: whatever it brings, as long as they can get a
- 9:06Speaker 13: tip R two that gives them a better quality of
- 9:09Speaker 13: life and helps them become better mentally, then run the
- 9:11Speaker 13: play with it.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Now, you talked about your calling, so when it came
- 9:14Speaker 3: when it comes to your calling, what is your calling?
- 9:16Speaker 3: What do you specialize in? Is it relationships? Is it
- 9:19Speaker 3: dealing with people's problems?
- 9:20Speaker 6: Is it just listening?
- 9:21Speaker 5: What is your specialty when it comes to and what's
- 9:23Speaker 5: your calling?
- 9:23Speaker 2: I love that?
- 9:24Speaker 13: So I started off as a marriage and marriage iman
- 9:26Speaker 13: child therapist, and I tell God, I said, listen, I'm
- 9:29Speaker 13: a little girl from the hood.
- 9:30Speaker 2: You know what I come from.
- 9:31Speaker 13: Don't put me in the hood, and don't put me
- 9:34Speaker 13: with court order DCF kids.
- 9:36Speaker 2: Not that I had a problem with them.
- 9:37Speaker 13: I didn't want to be triggered dealing with them and
- 9:39Speaker 13: I didn't want to have to deal with what I
- 9:40Speaker 13: came from. I wasn't in the system, but I came
- 9:43Speaker 13: from that type of adversity. And the first place God
- 9:46Speaker 13: put me was off of Hotdale and Sloughs and I
- 9:48Speaker 13: don't know if you're familiar with LA, but a block
- 9:50Speaker 13: away from Sloss and swap.
- 9:51Speaker 2: Meet in the hood and every one of my clients.
- 9:55Speaker 13: Were court ordered DCFS Department of Family and Child Services.
- 9:59Speaker 13: We had mom in there who were pregnant, still hitting
- 10:02Speaker 13: the pipe asking me can I sign off on the
- 10:04Speaker 13: documents so they can get the kids back, because I
- 10:07Speaker 13: was predicated on their reunification with their kids, and so
- 10:10Speaker 13: started off as doing that. When I got my doctor,
- 10:13Speaker 13: I transitioned to a psychology expert life coach. My specialty
- 10:16Speaker 13: then was marriage faman child therapy, So that is my foundation.
- 10:20Speaker 13: So now that I am a psychology expert life coach.
- 10:23Speaker 13: I can't get rid of that because that's my foundation.
- 10:26Speaker 13: I do psyched on MMSCVT, but I couple it, which
- 10:28Speaker 13: is my hybrid approach with coaching. So it's therapy and coaching,
- 10:32Speaker 13: which is hybrid. And I say this without humility. That's
- 10:34Speaker 13: why I'm so effected because therapy is tell me more,
- 10:37Speaker 13: let me hear about your trauma, your daddy issues, to
- 10:39Speaker 13: mom issues.
- 10:40Speaker 2: Why are you who you are? And then once you're
- 10:43Speaker 2: finished dealing with that and you process that? Okay, DJ ANDV,
- 10:46Speaker 2: what the hell you going from there?
- 10:47Speaker 3: I do have one other questions when it comes to
- 10:49Speaker 3: the therapy aspect. I'm sure the world has been watching
- 10:51Speaker 3: the Mendas brothers, right, And I had a question, right.
- 10:55Speaker 3: So the Mendas brothers, if you don't know, they confess
- 10:57Speaker 3: their crime to the therapists, and they believed that the
- 11:01Speaker 3: therapists could not tell police officers because it was I guess,
- 11:05Speaker 3: patient client privilege, but they did. So does that mean
- 11:09Speaker 3: anything that I tell a therapist or that anybody tells
- 11:12Speaker 3: a therapist can and can possibly be used against them
- 11:15Speaker 3: in the court of.
- 11:15Speaker 2: Law one hundred percent?
- 11:16Speaker 13: So a therapist is only under confidential oath unless you
- 11:20Speaker 13: are threatening to kill yourself and someone else, And it
- 11:23Speaker 13: can't just be a threat, it has to be you
- 11:25Speaker 13: have you actually have like an action plan to do so.
- 11:28Speaker 8: Right.
- 11:28Speaker 13: You can't just come to me and say, hey, Doc,
- 11:29Speaker 13: look you know I want to kill myself. I will
- 11:32Speaker 13: help you process through that and hopefully talk you off
- 11:34Speaker 13: the ledge. But if you say I got a plan.
- 11:36Speaker 13: At nine pm, I'm leaving the house. I'm going to
- 11:37Speaker 13: do X, Y and Z to my wife, then I
- 11:39Speaker 13: have a duty to report. If I'm subpoenaed to court,
- 11:44Speaker 13: I have to speak on that.
- 11:45Speaker 1: Can you reach out to the court and say, subpoena
- 11:47Speaker 1: me I.
- 11:47Speaker 6: Need to be.
- 11:51Speaker 13: Would never do that just because I believe in the
- 11:53Speaker 13: following the oath of and maybe I just love and
- 11:55Speaker 13: respect my clients too much. But if you came to
- 11:57Speaker 13: me and said something, I'm just not And I know
- 11:59Speaker 13: this is dollars in murder, but I've had married couples
- 12:02Speaker 13: who come separately and together and the husband is just
- 12:06Speaker 13: lighting it up in his individual sessions, like I'm cheating,
- 12:08Speaker 13: I'm intimate with this person and that person is family
- 12:11Speaker 13: members is this and I'm and I'm having to just
- 12:13Speaker 13: make sure I process my count of transfers, because I'm
- 12:15Speaker 13: sitting there like.
- 12:16Speaker 2: Damn, and I have her in one hour, in one hour.
- 12:20Speaker 8: God.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Now, of course, if it was like my girlfriend, I'd be.
- 12:23Speaker 13: Like butlfriend, because my best friend couldn't be that's that's
- 12:31Speaker 13: a complication. She could never come to me as her
- 12:34Speaker 13: as a psychology exerting that. But I then I'd be
- 12:36Speaker 13: I'd be you know, ripping into in talking to me
- 12:38Speaker 13: from the.
- 12:39Speaker 4: Human perspective, because you still you're still a real stuff
- 12:42Speaker 4: like that. When you hear a guy come in one.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Hour he's doing X, Y and Z and the woman
- 12:45Speaker 1: coming to the next what is going through your mind
- 12:47Speaker 1: about to do?
- 12:48Speaker 13: You know, in my mind, honestly, what I tried to do,
- 12:51Speaker 13: and and and and and some of my clients have
- 12:53Speaker 13: followed this guidance. I have one client now, he's he's
- 12:56Speaker 13: married and the wife is attempted to divorce him, and
- 12:58Speaker 13: she's divorcing him because he cheated, but she doesn't have any.
- 13:01Speaker 2: Hard facts on him.
- 13:03Speaker 13: So I've actually been able to process with him whether
- 13:07Speaker 13: you're going to be with this woman or not, if
- 13:09Speaker 13: you want to be with her or you want to be.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Able to leave and do better.
- 13:11Speaker 13: At some point, you got to be able to be
- 13:13Speaker 13: real with yourself and real with her, and you got
- 13:14Speaker 13: to be transparent. When do you plan on doing that?
- 13:17Speaker 13: So he just literally this week or last week, because
- 13:19Speaker 13: this week you told me doc. I sat with her
- 13:21Speaker 13: and I told her that has been you know a
- 13:23Speaker 13: few times that I did cheat. And I said, how
- 13:26Speaker 13: does she respond? He said, she said, now we can
- 13:28Speaker 13: have a conversation because now you're keeping it real. And
- 13:31Speaker 13: when I had her in session, I said, listen, dragered right.
- 13:34Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 13:35Speaker 13: When some guys said, look, you have two options, said either,
- 13:38Speaker 13: if you're willing to learn to love a dog, we
- 13:40Speaker 13: can start that process because you know, or we could
- 13:43Speaker 13: start the process of you leaving and starting over. And
- 13:46Speaker 13: she goes, what do you mean by a dog? He said,
- 13:48Speaker 13: but he didn't. We've been together for ten years.
- 13:49Speaker 2: He's never cheated.
- 13:50Speaker 13: The first time I said no, no, baby, I said, he'd
- 13:52Speaker 13: been quiet for ten years. He decided to bark on
- 13:55Speaker 13: your number ten Jesus.
- 13:56Speaker 14: So you don't think that he could change in that
- 13:58Speaker 14: marriage and not cheat anymore.
- 14:00Speaker 13: First of all, nobody changes, including me. We shift, and
- 14:03Speaker 13: that changes our life. And when I say we shift,
- 14:05Speaker 13: we shift out of the things and behaviors that don't
- 14:07Speaker 13: serve us after we learn they're not working, gotcha, And
- 14:10Speaker 13: then we have to learn to manage those. So I
- 14:13Speaker 13: am very firecrackery. When I was younger, I was very temperamental.
- 14:17Speaker 13: I was very you know, who.
- 14:19Speaker 2: Are you talking to? Real quick?
- 14:20Speaker 13: I just because of my trauma, because of things, I
- 14:23Speaker 13: just had a very protective by all means necessary. I'm
- 14:26Speaker 13: an otus of seven, so I was you know, I've
- 14:29Speaker 13: like this place up? Is that still in me after
- 14:31Speaker 13: all of my healing?
- 14:32Speaker 8: Hell?
- 14:32Speaker 2: Yeah? Do I manage it? Absolutely?
- 14:35Speaker 13: Managing it just means that I'm high function I'm able
- 14:38Speaker 13: to regulate my emotion, identify my emotions, don't get into
- 14:41Speaker 13: my feelings because emotions are healthy. Feelings cause problems, and
- 14:44Speaker 13: I can just say, okay, identify that I'm angry, I'm frustrated.
- 14:47Speaker 13: So now let me choose my response. Before I was
- 14:50Speaker 13: low functioning. Once I felt it, I was triggered and
- 14:52Speaker 13: everybody here was going to know and it was gonna
- 14:54Speaker 13: be a problem.
- 14:55Speaker 2: So does that still come up? Yeah? But do I
- 14:57Speaker 2: have self talk that says we're not doing that?
- 15:00Speaker 3: So you would never date a man that cheated before
- 15:02Speaker 3: because you feel like he will always be a cheated
- 15:04Speaker 3: Is that what you're saying.
- 15:05Speaker 13: I think that's also circumstantial. So I do believe that
- 15:08Speaker 13: different relationships bring out different things in us. I was
- 15:11Speaker 13: also in extreme alpha in my first engagement. I had
- 15:13Speaker 13: two engagements called off, two weddings my first relationships I
- 15:16Speaker 13: was engaged to.
- 15:17Speaker 2: I was extreme alpha.
- 15:18Speaker 13: So even if he tried to be alpha, I left
- 15:21Speaker 13: no space. It was like hell no, by all means necessary,
- 15:24Speaker 13: because I said, so you can walk like I'm chasing
- 15:27Speaker 13: my career.
- 15:27Speaker 2: I know my value. I'm not fatherless. I got a daddy.
- 15:30Speaker 2: He spoiled me good day. So even in that, do
- 15:32Speaker 2: you feel like that he wasn't man enough for you?
- 15:35Speaker 2: Or like, what was that? Do you think that's your fault?
- 15:37Speaker 2: Do you look back and be like, ugh, I was
- 15:39Speaker 2: trying to be the man, not trying to be the man.
- 15:41Speaker 2: But I actually I gave him because you just said
- 15:44Speaker 2: you gave no work for him to do it. So
- 15:46Speaker 2: do you regret that part of me? That's a duality.
- 15:48Speaker 13: I think he chose a woman who was alpha because
- 15:51Speaker 13: it fed something in him that was beta. I chose
- 15:54Speaker 13: a man who was veda because my alpha needed to
- 15:56Speaker 13: be inflamed. But my second engagement, he was alpha. That's
- 16:00Speaker 13: why I say its circumstantial. But not only was he alpha,
- 16:02Speaker 13: I was ready. I had these submissive fills in me already.
- 16:06Speaker 13: So by the time we got in a relationship, I
- 16:08Speaker 13: was a hybrid. By then I was alpha submissive, so
- 16:11Speaker 13: I was cooking. He was daddy. I was soft. I
- 16:14Speaker 13: was in my feminine And the blessing of that is
- 16:17Speaker 13: I got to experience both, and I learned that I
- 16:20Speaker 13: fell more in love with myself in my softness than
- 16:22Speaker 13: he probably did.
- 16:23Speaker 2: Yeah, that thing all right.
- 16:24Speaker 3: We have more with doctor Shanyenne Bryant when we come back,
- 16:27Speaker 3: so don't move.
- 16:28Speaker 4: It's the Breakfast Club.
- 16:29Speaker 5: Good morning, the Breakfast Club.

- 16:41Speaker 3: doctor Shanyenne Bryant. Of course, she has her show Truth
- 16:43Speaker 3: Talks on Fox Soul Monday through Friday, eight pm. She's
- 16:46Speaker 3: a psychology expert, a life coach.
- 16:49Speaker 5: Jess.
- 16:49Speaker 2: So the interview with Cam and also saw that she
- 16:53Speaker 2: sat down with Nick. Did they reach out to you
- 16:54Speaker 2: or did you reach out to them.
- 16:56Speaker 13: So Nick reached out to me and said, Doc, what's up, Like,
- 16:59Speaker 13: I want to work through some thing, but I want
- 17:01Speaker 13: to work through it on camera. And I said, okay,
- 17:03Speaker 13: no problem, but I'm going to penetrate. So we're not
- 17:07Speaker 13: doing penetrate.
- 17:13Speaker 5: The trigger is crazy, So he likes penetration.
- 17:18Speaker 2: Nick always goes, Doc, do you have to use that word.
- 17:20Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, I am.
- 17:22Speaker 13: I'm penetrating you at the space that obviously is broken and.
- 17:26Speaker 11: That the man just don't change, no twelve year old
- 17:38Speaker 11: girl right now? Boy definitely President definitely.
- 17:42Speaker 2: So when he says all right, I need to work
- 17:45Speaker 2: through some things, You're like, okay on camera? Does that
- 17:49Speaker 2: then in your mind say is this for real? For real?
- 17:53Speaker 2: Or do you want to appeal to a certain market,
- 17:57Speaker 2: you know, to a certain audience. You know what I'm saying,
- 17:59Speaker 2: great observation.
- 18:00Speaker 13: I didn't look at it like that because I look
- 18:02Speaker 13: at it like I have a job to do. And
- 18:05Speaker 13: so my intent was to use next situation and shift
- 18:10Speaker 13: a whole culture of black men saying with cam and
- 18:14Speaker 13: it happened. There were a lot of naysayers, but a
- 18:16Speaker 13: lot of black men were actually in there creating the
- 18:19Speaker 13: vironus and saying listen, Doc is right, we need to
- 18:21Speaker 13: create more husbands and less baby daddy. Cam was resistant,
- 18:24Speaker 13: but Cam had answered a lot of questions in his household.
- 18:27Speaker 13: Cam had a lot of stuff, He had a lot
- 18:29Speaker 13: of different conversations he had to have with that woman.
- 18:31Speaker 6: Y Ca.
- 18:32Speaker 1: Cam said that you know, it affected his relationship with
- 18:35Speaker 1: his first two baby moms and his current situation that no, yeah, because.
- 18:41Speaker 13: I'm here to interrupt that past No, yeah, like it
- 18:44Speaker 13: should have been interrupted a long time, a long time.
- 18:46Speaker 13: You know, Cam, and you come from and not that
- 18:48Speaker 13: this breeds good decision making people, but Cam comes from
- 18:52Speaker 13: He's a pastor's child. He comes from two parents that
- 18:55Speaker 13: are still married and they're still very their pastors, very
- 18:57Speaker 13: much involved with the church that goes to show you,
- 19:00Speaker 13: like the Bible said, it was good for me that
- 19:03Speaker 13: I was afflicted because you got people who come from brokenness.
- 19:06Speaker 13: This is why I said, these kids are not doomed
- 19:08Speaker 13: who make different decisions because it's not about where.
- 19:11Speaker 2: A lot of times it's not.
- 19:12Speaker 13: Where you go, and they gets you where you where
- 19:13Speaker 13: you're going, it's where you trying to get the hell
- 19:15Speaker 13: away from. And a lot of times parents, Yeah, like
- 19:18Speaker 13: I was telling Rayja this. Ray J is my client
- 19:21Speaker 13: as well, Jesus. And I was telling ray I said,
- 19:25Speaker 13: ray I love your parents. They showed you everything to
- 19:28Speaker 13: do right, they didn't show you what not to do
- 19:31Speaker 13: and see. For me, I had a circumstances an environment
- 19:33Speaker 13: that showed me everything not to do. So sometimes knowing
- 19:38Speaker 13: what not to do saves you from doing the wrong.
- 19:41Speaker 2: I was just going to ask, how do you deal
- 19:43Speaker 2: with your other clients if you have ray J, I do,
- 19:50Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I have that.
- 19:51Speaker 13: I have wise counsel Yeah, yeah, yeah, I have a
- 19:54Speaker 13: nice group, a nice, really healthy ecosystem of people who
- 19:57Speaker 13: are in you know, counselors and coaches, and who are not.
- 20:00Speaker 5: What do you say? What do you say to people
- 20:02Speaker 5: that say, you know?
- 20:02Speaker 3: How do you give advice on marriages and marriage couples
- 20:06Speaker 3: when you're not married?
- 20:07Speaker 6: That was what do you say to those people?
- 20:08Speaker 13: I love that, I say that I don't want to
- 20:10Speaker 13: hear you've been together fifteen years of miserable thirteen. I
- 20:13Speaker 13: rather take advice from a single woman or man who's happy, thriving, successful,
- 20:17Speaker 13: meaning in their joy, not just in their monetary value,
- 20:20Speaker 13: then someone who is miserable in the marriage with a
- 20:22Speaker 13: side dude in a side check, and you want to
- 20:24Speaker 13: give an advice that you give yourself that you're using
- 20:26Speaker 13: your failed marriage.
- 20:27Speaker 2: I'll pass better, all pass, all pass.
- 20:29Speaker 13: And what happens is married people like to shun on
- 20:31Speaker 13: single folks. The Bible also says single people are happy
- 20:34Speaker 13: people that look that up. It says marriage la discipline. No,
- 20:41Speaker 13: it says marriage take discipline.
- 20:43Speaker 3: And a lot of times they say that you reach
- 20:45Speaker 3: out to older couples that's been married longer because they'll
- 20:48Speaker 3: tell you how to deal with the marriage than people.
- 20:51Speaker 3: You know, like some people say, don't you said, don't
- 20:53Speaker 3: you know with your single friends, you talk to married
- 20:54Speaker 3: couples that's been in that situation.
- 20:56Speaker 13: And you know why that's true because folks who have
- 20:59Speaker 13: been marriaging fifty twin years, they've been through the trenches.
- 21:01Speaker 13: So they're not gonna teach you how to be happy.
- 21:04Speaker 13: We got that single sist, We got that. I've had
- 21:06Speaker 13: that all my life. They're gonna teach you how to
- 21:08Speaker 13: get through the times when you ain't happy. Y'all, married,
- 21:11Speaker 13: you know that, let's not play this game.
- 21:13Speaker 2: You married, you know that.
- 21:14Speaker 5: You think people get married too early.
- 21:15Speaker 13: I think people choose the wrong people. I think people
- 21:18Speaker 13: choose their fairyitar ideology, they're not choosing the person. See,
- 21:22Speaker 13: people are choosing marriage and not a husband. They're choosing
- 21:25Speaker 13: marriage and not a wife. And so when you're choosing marriage,
- 21:28Speaker 13: you get the title, you get the looks of it,
- 21:30Speaker 13: but you're not getting a person.
- 21:31Speaker 2: So you're a beautiful house who's homeless.
- 21:33Speaker 4: You're like the idea of.
- 21:34Speaker 2: The idea, the idea.
- 21:36Speaker 13: And those are people who are fatherless sometimes motherless, who
- 21:40Speaker 13: just need something to be a part of. I just
- 21:43Speaker 13: need this companionship. I want the title. I don't feel value,
- 21:45Speaker 13: I don't for validated. So because we're married, I got
- 21:48Speaker 13: somebody who's checking from me. I got somebody who can
- 21:49Speaker 13: get me through the day. But you got to be
- 21:51Speaker 13: able to check even in marriage.
- 21:52Speaker 2: I was engaged for ten years, you know, because I
- 21:55Speaker 2: kept calling it off, calling it off.
- 21:56Speaker 13: And he was like, you keep getting these degrees. You
- 21:58Speaker 13: keep saying, wait for the next degree, where get married?
- 22:00Speaker 13: And my time I want to get my doctor. He's like, baby,
- 22:02Speaker 13: you done.
- 22:02Speaker 2: Got four degrees. Yeah, engage, you know, And I.
- 22:05Speaker 13: Can't putting it off because I knew that that wasn't
- 22:07Speaker 13: my person. And I ended up leaving. I ended up
- 22:13Speaker 13: leaving him, you know, unfortunate for him for gun ten years.
- 22:18Speaker 2: And she said he was a great guy, great guy.
- 22:20Speaker 2: He was a great guy. He just wasn't my guy, right,
- 22:22Speaker 2: And so.
- 22:23Speaker 3: For ten years he thought he was the guy you
- 22:24Speaker 3: scro along for ten years.
- 22:25Speaker 4: Why you let him go be great with somebody else
- 22:26Speaker 4: that would appreciate him and love him.
- 22:28Speaker 13: So I'm not saying for ten years, I knew he
- 22:30Speaker 13: wasn't the one. When we got about your number five
- 22:32Speaker 13: or six, and I've seen that his work ethic and
- 22:34Speaker 13: his ability to provide at the level that I wanted
- 22:38Speaker 13: our family to be at, I knew that he wasn't mine,
- 22:42Speaker 13: my guy. And when I say provide, I'm not talking
- 22:44Speaker 13: about like he was making six figures and I was like,
- 22:46Speaker 13: now make millions.
- 22:47Speaker 2: I'm saying. His thing was, baby, I'm cool with me.
- 22:49Speaker 13: You a dog in a one baite in my apartment
- 22:51Speaker 13: and just no work at all. So for the first
- 22:54Speaker 13: six years, I thought, while I'm out here getting it,
- 22:56Speaker 13: I have a legal company, you know, I own property.
- 22:58Speaker 2: I'm only twenty two and all.
- 23:00Speaker 13: These college degrees. How can he not be inspired by me? See,
- 23:02Speaker 13: that's that age appropriate young woman.
- 23:04Speaker 2: He got potential. Let me stay. That's why people should
- 23:07Speaker 2: take their time.
- 23:08Speaker 13: When I seen you number seven and eight, this guy
- 23:09Speaker 13: was the same guy who was I hate talking because
- 23:12Speaker 13: he's such a good guy. I was protecting when I
- 23:13Speaker 13: talk about him. But where he was lazy and had
- 23:15Speaker 13: no work ethic, I had a pivot.
- 23:17Speaker 6: Did he acquire more in the future.
- 23:19Speaker 2: No, he's still in the same place, So I made
- 23:21Speaker 2: the right decision.
- 23:22Speaker 3: We have more with doctor Shyenne Briant when we come back.
- 23:25Speaker 5: Don't move.
- 23:25Speaker 4: It's the Breakfast Club.
- 23:26Speaker 5: Good morning, what.
- 23:27Speaker 3: Everybody your dj MV Jess hilarious, Charlamagne the guy.
- 23:31Speaker 5: We are the Breakfast Club.
- 23:32Speaker 3: We're still kicking it with doctor Chanyenne Bryant, psychology expert,
- 23:35Speaker 3: life coach. You know she has her show Truth Talks
- 23:37Speaker 3: on Fox Soul. Now I want to ask you about
- 23:40Speaker 3: some internet rumors that I see. You know, Corey hol
- 23:42Speaker 3: Comes said some things about you about not having your
- 23:45Speaker 3: degree and where you started off as a I guess
- 23:48Speaker 3: working in the strip club.
- 23:49Speaker 5: Is any of that stuff?
- 23:49Speaker 4: You said, you're not a real doctor.
- 23:50Speaker 5: He said, yeah, you're not a real doctor.
- 23:52Speaker 13: No, So I have four degrees. Three are in psychology,
- 23:55Speaker 13: ones and Pan African studies. My doctor degree is in
- 23:57Speaker 13: counseling psychology. My master's the marriage I mean YID therapy.
- 24:00Speaker 13: All degrees are in psychology.
- 24:02Speaker 2: Where this Corey Holcom thing comes from, is we did.
- 24:04Speaker 13: I was on a show ten years ago when I
- 24:07Speaker 13: actually I think it was before even had my doctor degree.
- 24:10Speaker 13: And Corey is used to being able to be very
- 24:12Speaker 13: disrespectful to woman and doing things.
- 24:16Speaker 2: He was a guest on the show. I was co hosted.
- 24:18Speaker 13: He was a guest, and I drill dis asked to
- 24:21Speaker 13: be honest, it's on YouTube, people, could you know look
- 24:24Speaker 13: at it? And I cut into him and I said,
- 24:26Speaker 13: you seem like you are inferior to white man, and
- 24:28Speaker 13: you seem like you got daddy issues, and you seem
- 24:30Speaker 13: like you got mommy issues. You got kids that don't
- 24:33Speaker 13: even talk to you or respect you, they don't like you.
- 24:35Speaker 2: It tell us a lot about your character.
- 24:36Speaker 13: This was ten years ago, okay, And obviously he's still
- 24:39Speaker 13: in his feminine because he's still holding a grudge over it.
- 24:41Speaker 13: You know, this is like interviews or interviews, so you're
- 24:43Speaker 13: saying you do them and you move on to the next.
- 24:45Speaker 13: And so was very upset and I feel like that
- 24:48Speaker 13: in that space he was, y'all could watch it. He
- 24:51Speaker 13: was done, found it Like usually he comes back with
- 24:53Speaker 13: the you know, f you b or he has something
- 24:55Speaker 13: to say.
- 24:56Speaker 2: That Corey is just a broken person, period, and I
- 24:58Speaker 2: do feel like you'll need help. He needs help.
- 25:01Speaker 13: Corys off camera if Corey came again and said, doc,
- 25:03Speaker 13: let's do off camera sessions if he wants to do
- 25:07Speaker 13: it on camera, because it's just gonna be a rhetoric.
- 25:10Speaker 13: I'm not doing that to help his career. I will
- 25:12Speaker 13: help him as a man, but I'm not here to
- 25:15Speaker 13: help him in his career. That's his job. I'm not
- 25:18Speaker 13: here to carry a man that ain't minds or float
- 25:20Speaker 13: a man that ain't mind, but to help you with
- 25:21Speaker 13: your mental health or help you as a person. He's
- 25:24Speaker 13: an alcoholic, he drinks a lot. You know, he's he's
- 25:27Speaker 13: over compensating. Those areas, those are places he needs help with.
- 25:30Speaker 2: Did you guys see.
- 25:31Speaker 13: What he looks like on Cam Newton interview. I'm not
- 25:33Speaker 13: talking about looks many attractiveness. Do you see how unwell hygienically.
- 25:39Speaker 2: Clean he looks?
- 25:42Speaker 3: Say why no?
- 25:42Speaker 13: This ties into mental health? That man's hygiene was on
- 25:45Speaker 13: negative two hundred. What I'm saying is he needs deeper
- 25:48Speaker 13: help than me coming on fifty one fifty to bring
- 25:52Speaker 13: him a bigger audience. He can seal do fifty one fifty,
- 25:54Speaker 13: but he needs to be able to fifty one fifty
- 25:56Speaker 13: himself and get the help that he needs.
- 25:58Speaker 14: Lord, I saw you said too that you comment on
- 26:02Speaker 14: the fact that Kamala didn't come out the first night
- 26:04Speaker 14: when she didn't win. Speak to that and speak to
- 26:07Speaker 14: the comment because we were upset.
- 26:09Speaker 2: About Oh yeah, another unpopular opinion. I don't care.
- 26:13Speaker 11: She proved why the people.
- 26:15Speaker 13: Men and women who are not ready for a woman
- 26:18Speaker 13: president are not ready for a woman president because society
- 26:22Speaker 13: and some men not all, deem women as emotionally unstable
- 26:26Speaker 13: and unable to regulate our emotions when you knew you.
- 26:29Speaker 2: Weren't winning or weren't in the lead.
- 26:31Speaker 13: And these kids, these babies, these adults were at a
- 26:33Speaker 13: historical black university that you went to, Howard waiting hours
- 26:37Speaker 13: for you. They had volunteered, I'm sure they had to contributed,
- 26:40Speaker 13: and they probably voted for you and supported you this
- 26:42Speaker 13: entire time. You couldn't come out and address the people
- 26:46Speaker 13: who supported you. That's proven to the people who don't
- 26:49Speaker 13: believe women could lead at that level, that a woman
- 26:52Speaker 13: can't regulate her emotions enough to come out and take
- 26:54Speaker 13: an ail.
- 26:55Speaker 2: I don't care if she would have came out in tears. Listen,
- 26:58Speaker 2: I'm sorry we lost. Whatever that looks like.
- 27:00Speaker 1: I'll give a little pushback on that, because Donald Trump
- 27:03Speaker 1: never gave a concession speech, nor would he even admit
- 27:06Speaker 1: that he lost.
- 27:06Speaker 13: But we're talking about Trump who runs on being that
- 27:09Speaker 13: type of person, so his people never expected that. Just
- 27:13Speaker 13: like when someone says, well, Trump's a racist, he's running
- 27:17Speaker 13: on that.
- 27:17Speaker 2: Trump is talking about getting rid of the U d I.
- 27:21Speaker 2: He has said that.
- 27:24Speaker 13: Kamala came out and showed us all this love and support.
- 27:28Speaker 13: But when you took the l not only did you
- 27:30Speaker 13: not come out, you sent a man to come out
- 27:33Speaker 13: and address these people.
- 27:35Speaker 2: He was fine too. You didn't even send another woman
- 27:37Speaker 2: or black woman. This was a woman's moment.
- 27:40Speaker 13: And in my opinion, that all that did was tell
- 27:44Speaker 13: the folks who said women can't lead, see she sent
- 27:47Speaker 13: a man out to do it and then came out
- 27:49Speaker 13: the next day. That's not leadership.
- 27:51Speaker 15: To me.
- 27:52Speaker 13: Leadership is commitment, and commitment is doing what you said
- 27:55Speaker 13: you would doue regards of how you feel. I don't
- 27:57Speaker 13: care how you felt, Kamala, come out and address us.
- 27:59Speaker 13: Those kids left what they had down. They weren't sad
- 28:02Speaker 13: just because she lost. They were sad because they were
- 28:04Speaker 13: looking for who was still their leader, whether she lost
- 28:06Speaker 13: or not. To come out and address those kids.
- 28:09Speaker 3: I was going to ask, what was the last time
- 28:10Speaker 3: you apologize or last time you were wrong about something
- 28:12Speaker 3: you remember?
- 28:14Speaker 1: Good question?
- 28:15Speaker 3: It probably probably.
- 28:18Speaker 2: It probably was to my best friend Lola and my assistant.
- 28:21Speaker 13: We work so closely together. We're always together because I'm
- 28:25Speaker 13: so comfortable with her. She gets all of my moving
- 28:28Speaker 13: part to be honest with What about to a man
- 28:30Speaker 13: that you're dating.
- 28:32Speaker 5: Didn't get an apology?
- 28:34Speaker 14: I actually got to know because you you are very
- 28:36Speaker 14: strong in opinion and stuff like that. And I think
- 28:38Speaker 14: men think that women that are structured like you don't
- 28:41Speaker 14: know how to be accountable and don't know how to apologize.
- 28:42Speaker 2: I'm very accountable.
- 28:44Speaker 13: I do apologize, And that's why I said, I want
- 28:47Speaker 13: a man who will say with respect and me, he
- 28:50Speaker 13: ain't about to just dominate, like shut your ass up
- 28:53Speaker 13: to you know, he could be disrespectful, but I want
- 28:54Speaker 13: a man who's like, hold on, you're out of pocket
- 28:56Speaker 13: right now. You know, like, we don't do that. This
- 28:59Speaker 13: is not what we do. And I like you strong,
- 29:02Speaker 13: but this is not strong. This is disrespectful, baby. But
- 29:05Speaker 13: I want him to be able to know how to
- 29:07Speaker 13: say it, and then I will be like, you know,
- 29:08Speaker 13: even if it's not in that moment, I can process
- 29:11Speaker 13: and be like, you know what, you're right, and I do.
- 29:13Speaker 2: I will apologize.
- 29:14Speaker 13: I will come to myself because I have the discipline
- 29:17Speaker 13: of that self talk of saying stock you know, or
- 29:19Speaker 13: I will say, listen, you've already apologized. You've done everything
- 29:22Speaker 13: you could right now. It's not a youth problem. I'm
- 29:24Speaker 13: still trying to get out of my ego. So just
- 29:27Speaker 13: give me thirty minutes, because baby, you've apologized, like you've.
- 29:30Speaker 2: Done your job. And then I come around in twenty
- 29:32Speaker 2: thirty minutes and I'm like, okay, I'm back and I'm
- 29:35Speaker 2: sorry too.
- 29:35Speaker 4: That's awareness, that's kind of ability.
- 29:37Speaker 8: Sorry.
- 29:37Speaker 13: And the thing is when you really want peace, and
- 29:40Speaker 13: that's the thing about being single for so long, though.
- 29:42Speaker 11: You can, yes, you find it, you figure it out.
- 29:45Speaker 2: You find a piece and enjoy that.
- 29:47Speaker 11: You do get in a relationship, you gotta make sense.
- 29:49Speaker 13: And when you do get a relationship though, you're really
- 29:51Speaker 13: saying let's dead this let's deadness argument.
- 29:53Speaker 14: Yes, have you ever got afraid that you're going to
- 29:55Speaker 14: get so used to that piece that you're not gonna
- 29:56Speaker 14: want to do nothing? Because I tell myself the all
- 29:58Speaker 14: the time, like I'm in such a good state, I
- 30:00Speaker 14: don't want nothing to bother me.
- 30:05Speaker 13: No, because I have been I have been serial dating
- 30:09Speaker 13: for the six years I've been single. So when I
- 30:10Speaker 13: say single, it means I haven't.
- 30:12Speaker 2: Been committed but committed.
- 30:13Speaker 13: But have I had like three months six months relationships
- 30:15Speaker 13: that went that long season A word exclusive and we're
- 30:17Speaker 13: committed in that season Because I am very into exclusivity.
- 30:21Speaker 13: I don't like casual sex, and so I will accidentally
- 30:23Speaker 13: go a year, year and a half Cellivan because I
- 30:26Speaker 13: don't like the casualty of sex. And when I decide to,
- 30:29Speaker 13: I would choose that one person to be around for
- 30:32Speaker 13: the long term. Well when does that decision happen for you? Now,
- 30:35Speaker 13: I'm in my choosing stage, so it's gonna happen now
- 30:37Speaker 13: like soon. I'm in my choosing stage.
- 30:39Speaker 2: But but I'm not.
- 30:40Speaker 13: I'm not desperate, so it's not like again, I'm not
- 30:43Speaker 13: choosing just a high valued man. I would even take
- 30:46Speaker 13: a man who's a little less value, meaning a little
- 30:48Speaker 13: less income money. But I just love this man. He's
- 30:53Speaker 13: my person, right, so yeah, yeah, I mean he could. Yeah,
- 30:56Speaker 13: so I would, And I would regular rather have a
- 30:58Speaker 13: regular man who isn't in the limelight, who we both
- 31:02Speaker 13: don't have to straddle this this whole industry thing, and
- 31:05Speaker 13: he can go run a business or go be a
- 31:07Speaker 13: corporate guy. He can come to my shows and we

- 31:13Speaker 13: go home and put my hair in a in a

- 33:36Speaker 1: The book title is perfect for you because there's not
- 33:38Speaker 1: too many people on this planet who come with good
- 33:41Speaker 1: intentions like.
- 33:42Speaker 6: Wallow does appreciate that.
- 33:43Speaker 4: When did you develop that mentality?
- 33:45Speaker 6: I don't know, Man. I was on the street corners,
- 33:46Speaker 6: I was, I was, I had good intentions on the
- 33:48Speaker 6: street corners. I just wanted to still American dream, and
- 33:50Speaker 6: I said, man, it's too slow. The only people that
- 33:53Speaker 6: got respected my neighborhood was successful criminals. So even though
- 33:55Speaker 6: I was a good person growing up, my grandma raised me,
- 33:58Speaker 6: well my mom, you know, you know, I was like,
- 33:59Speaker 6: I got to figure this out. So I said, I
- 34:01Speaker 6: got to I got man. The only people they respect
- 34:03Speaker 6: out is the people that's winning by any means. And
- 34:06Speaker 6: then even in America, I was like, damn, hold up, America.
- 34:08Speaker 6: They only respected Scarface, they only respect the Godfather. They
- 34:11Speaker 6: don't respect nobody else. I gotta go get some money.
- 34:14Speaker 6: So even though my heart was good, I had to
- 34:16Speaker 6: go figure it out. And that led me to prison
- 34:17Speaker 6: most of my life. And and but you know, even
- 34:20Speaker 6: in their prison thirteen years right twenty twenty, I did
- 34:23Speaker 6: twenty penitentiary five years, and then out the juvenile system.
- 34:27Speaker 6: And even in that, I remember, you know, oh here said,
- 34:30Speaker 6: all I did was laughing jail and just do what
- 34:32Speaker 6: I needed to do, educate myself because I realized that,
- 34:34Speaker 6: and to the point where somebody said I was one
- 34:36Speaker 6: of the nicest dude in prison because I knew why
- 34:39Speaker 6: I was there. I did mine so I was accountable
- 34:41Speaker 6: for my books. So, you know, and that helped me
- 34:43Speaker 6: change and develop into what I become today. You know,
- 34:45Speaker 6: I'm just happy to be here and I and I
- 34:48Speaker 6: try my best this year all the knowledge that I got,
- 34:50Speaker 6: as you know, with our people to show let's listen,
- 34:53Speaker 6: we're bigger than what y'all think we are. Because I
- 34:55Speaker 6: always say this, and it's crazy to me. It's like,
- 34:57Speaker 6: you know, back in the day, we didn't have nothing,
- 34:58Speaker 6: but we had everything because we had at each other
- 35:01Speaker 6: and that was important. And it's like it seemed like
- 35:03Speaker 6: now we find so many reasons not to deal with
- 35:05Speaker 6: each other, and it's like, God, damn, who you working for?
- 35:11Speaker 6: Like you go on social media, it's like who you're
- 35:13Speaker 6: working for? But I had to realize something a lot
- 35:15Speaker 6: of us don't want to look in that mirror and
- 35:16Speaker 6: deal with it. I don't hate envy because of his money,
- 35:19Speaker 6: his cars, his family's marriage. I hate envy because m
- 35:22Speaker 6: be getting love for doing something that I always wanted
- 35:25Speaker 6: to do, but I ain't have enough heart to go
- 35:26Speaker 6: out here and do it. Well. No, I'm not talking
- 35:29Speaker 6: about that. I'm just talking about the gentlemen. Yeah, he
- 35:31Speaker 6: do got that, Beijing, But I'm just saying, like shut
- 35:33Speaker 6: up to Beijing, give me deals, but but like this
- 35:35Speaker 6: and therapists, damn, okay, you better be paying you the
- 35:38Speaker 6: way you need. But what I'm saying is like that's
- 35:43Speaker 6: how culture became. It became like this in social media media.
- 35:46Speaker 6: Like a lot of people got to look in the
- 35:47Speaker 6: mirror and say, damn, I didn't materialize my dreams. And
- 35:50Speaker 6: that's the hardest thing to do, is you know. So
- 35:53Speaker 6: it's more easy to say Charlemagne the sucker, envy this, lord, this,
- 35:56Speaker 6: just this. It's much more easy to say it than
- 35:58Speaker 6: to say, let me get off my ass, and we're
- 36:00Speaker 6: here to do something with my life. So but it's
- 36:02Speaker 6: just it's just sad out here. When you see it now,
- 36:04Speaker 6: it's like we just I don't know, man, and all
- 36:06Speaker 6: we ever had was each other. That's the only way
- 36:08Speaker 6: we ever made it in life.
- 36:09Speaker 1: You said in the book, you said it's actually in
- 36:11Speaker 1: the chapter Arm of Good Intentions, you said you screamed
- 36:14Speaker 1: out one day and you made it a daily reminder
- 36:15Speaker 1: that nobody will save you.
- 36:17Speaker 6: Nobody. Especially when I was in prison, I'm like, we
- 36:20Speaker 6: complain in the we doing I'm like, yo, bro, we
- 36:21Speaker 6: inside these white folks spot ain't nobody coming. Like if
- 36:25Speaker 6: they go off anything else, we're gonna be locked in
- 36:27Speaker 6: these selves. Ain't nobody coming, But that's the same thing
- 36:29Speaker 6: in the ghetto. Ain't nobody never come and save nobody?
- 36:32Speaker 6: Who saves her?
- 36:33Speaker 5: What was the change for you? What was because you
- 36:34Speaker 5: said you were in and out? What was the change?
- 36:35Speaker 6: You said?
- 36:36Speaker 5: I gotta get this right and I gotta change myself.
- 36:39Speaker 6: Like to be realistic, man, I got tired of being
- 36:41Speaker 6: in jail with a bunchet. You see what I'm saying.
- 36:42Speaker 6: I wanted to take a butt nugga shower, you know
- 36:43Speaker 6: what I mean. I couldn't do that. I wanted to
- 36:45Speaker 6: slip neked in the bed. I couldn't do that because
- 36:46Speaker 6: I'm in the SEC. Gotta sell you. I don't know
- 36:48Speaker 6: if he might wake up in the middle of night
- 36:49Speaker 6: and be like, yo, man, let me I need parts
- 36:51Speaker 6: of that, like what we're doing. Yeah, straight up. He
- 36:55Speaker 6: might wake up in the middle of night and be like, hey,
- 36:57Speaker 6: my man, let's let's figure something out, you know what
- 37:00Speaker 6: I mean. So I don't know. I'm just being real
- 37:02Speaker 6: because listen, you know what's crazy. I think one of
- 37:04Speaker 6: the reasons I maade it through jail, so smoothly because
- 37:06Speaker 6: I was always a comedian doing a low you know
- 37:09Speaker 6: what I'm saying. I was always funny. They was like, hey,
- 37:10Speaker 6: because I was in there scared to death. You know
- 37:12Speaker 6: how dudes come on from jail. I'll be trying to
- 37:14Speaker 6: wonder that I did all this time in jail. I'll
- 37:15Speaker 6: be like, what program was you on that you wasn't
- 37:17Speaker 6: scared in jail? That you was just so tough because
- 37:19Speaker 6: I was scared to death? Soon would they listen? As
- 37:21Speaker 6: soon as that judge gave me them numbers and they
- 37:23Speaker 6: you know you SHO had your thing together? Nothing mean,
- 37:26Speaker 6: say my little words back before you see them. It's
- 37:28Speaker 6: back and forth. Word player I had with the judge
- 37:30Speaker 6: is that he'a be back on walked in the joint,
- 37:32Speaker 6: you know what I mean? Now you got to do
- 37:33Speaker 6: the walk back in because now you're going back into
- 37:35Speaker 6: the cages where everybody looking at you when you come down.
- 37:37Speaker 6: What they give you with it about nothing. Man, It
- 37:39Speaker 6: gain't me a little twenty minutes by the time I
- 37:41Speaker 6: get to my cell later on that I threw that
- 37:43Speaker 6: tie up, crying like a baby man for a new boy. Damn.
- 37:46Speaker 6: Then and then once you the shackles hit you box
- 37:49Speaker 6: like an animal, the shackles going from your arm to
- 37:51Speaker 6: your feet. You get upstate, you hit that penitentiary yard
- 37:54Speaker 6: and you like, my mom, man, I know it was
- 37:57Speaker 6: like this. I'm seeing people with knights longer than the
- 37:59Speaker 6: giraft trump you. I was. I was. I went to
- 38:02Speaker 6: the penitential when I was seventeen, but I hit the
- 38:03Speaker 6: big prison yard when I turned eighteen. I was in
- 38:05Speaker 6: Dallas Penitentiary in Pennsylvania, and uh, that was that was
- 38:09Speaker 6: a different type of Joe. Man. I'm seeing people get
- 38:10Speaker 6: married in the yard and all that. I'm like, I
- 38:12Speaker 6: ain't trying to be nobody wife. I ain't signed up
- 38:14Speaker 6: for this, so I'm I'm looking.
- 38:17Speaker 5: Like married in the yard.
- 38:18Speaker 6: You know, people was getting married in the yard. I said,
- 38:20Speaker 6: damn man, though it was real weddings like it wasn't though,
- 38:25Speaker 6: like if you got the Bible when you got somebody
- 38:27Speaker 6: that's officially like you were just.
- 38:29Speaker 5: In the yard.
- 38:30Speaker 6: I was walking the yard.
- 38:30Speaker 11: I was, you know, I wasn't a guest.
- 38:34Speaker 6: I was in the backdround because I was walking in
- 38:35Speaker 6: the yard. So I'm like, I'm sitting there and I'm like,
- 38:37Speaker 6: I ain't trying to get married in the yard man, damn.
- 38:40Speaker 6: And then I'm seeing people getting stabbed in on. I'm like, yo,
- 38:42Speaker 6: I'm not trying to So I would go to my
- 38:44Speaker 6: seald and be like, Yo, what the going on? I
- 38:46Speaker 6: ain't signed up for this because nobody tell you this,
- 38:48Speaker 6: because only stories that we hear back in the hood
- 38:50Speaker 6: about jail is that you come home and you get
- 38:52Speaker 6: rewarded and you get acknowledged and you tough and all
- 38:54Speaker 6: this other you get muscles. But I'm like, I'm like, damn,
- 38:57Speaker 6: ain't nobody talking about the scary part. So I had
- 38:59Speaker 6: to be the one that a scary part to tell
- 39:01Speaker 6: a real part because I was scared, especially listen. So
- 39:03Speaker 6: I get up to the penitentiary this shower time I
- 39:06Speaker 6: go down there, I got my boxes on and all that.
- 39:08Speaker 6: So I'm like, damn, we go down there, and this
- 39:09Speaker 6: is my first time in a real because I went
- 39:11Speaker 6: to the penitentiary when a lot of younger dudes started
- 39:13Speaker 6: to go like you was getting certified as adulty created
- 39:16Speaker 6: new law, so a long time it was no young
- 39:18Speaker 6: boys in the one penitentiary. I went to dollars penitentiaries,
- 39:20Speaker 6: mostly old heads, and they had the most lifers in
- 39:23Speaker 6: the state of Pennsylvania at this time. So you could
- 39:25Speaker 6: be in a cell with anybody. You could do one
- 39:27Speaker 6: year of being a cell with a life. It don't matter.
- 39:29Speaker 6: So I go, I go to go to the shower.
- 39:31Speaker 6: So I got my towel on, my boxes on, and
- 39:33Speaker 6: when I went to the shower, right, I go down there,
- 39:35Speaker 6: steamed up in everything. This shower is probably maybe fifteen
- 39:39Speaker 6: shower heads and the block got one hundred and something
- 39:41Speaker 6: dudes on there. So when I go in the shower room,
- 39:45Speaker 6: it was like a movie. Like everybody looked at me,
- 39:47Speaker 6: like while you got the boxes on? Anybody, I'm telling
- 39:50Speaker 6: me it was I'm talking about it was a sword
- 39:51Speaker 6: showing that joint man work with. No. No, I'm just
- 39:54Speaker 6: like no, it's like that's not normal, like you, and
- 39:57Speaker 6: I'm like, you know what, that day I really realized
- 40:00Speaker 6: that a shower wasn't important than the bird bath. I said,
- 40:03Speaker 6: I could go back to myself and just wash up there.
- 40:05Speaker 6: Why would I need what? Why do a shower really
- 40:08Speaker 6: mean that.
- 40:08Speaker 3: You ain't taking shower your whole time, the whole way.
- 40:11Speaker 6: No, I took it for a while till I just
- 40:12Speaker 6: you know, went down there and short comfortable because because
- 40:15Speaker 6: I had that, I was like, damn, man, like why
- 40:17Speaker 6: everybody gotta be naked in this joint?
- 40:19Speaker 15: Man?
- 40:20Speaker 6: And then they looking at you and then they talking
- 40:22Speaker 6: like like they be asked. They talking you see the game?
- 40:25Speaker 6: Oh man, what's the name?
- 40:26Speaker 5: Went off?
- 40:26Speaker 6: Immi Smith. I'm like, man, like we ain't suposed like
- 40:29Speaker 6: y'all supposed to be doing it.
- 40:31Speaker 14: When did you get like like like comfortable with it?
- 40:34Speaker 14: Like your first decade shower were you never got a show?
- 40:42Speaker 6: But no, no, I got one when I got to
- 40:44Speaker 6: the jail where you get your own booth.
- 40:45Speaker 4: Okay, I wasn't trying to be a.
- 40:47Speaker 6: Party because it's like it's like a volunteer, like you
- 40:49Speaker 6: volunteering something.
- 40:50Speaker 4: How long it took to do that?
- 40:51Speaker 6: Oh years? It took years. But different jail, different part
- 40:53Speaker 6: of the jail got different sections where you get a
- 40:55Speaker 6: single shower. So in that jail was jings, we got
- 40:57Speaker 6: the single shower locked in. But it was like, man,
- 40:59Speaker 6: I always feel like that was the volunteer services, like
- 41:02Speaker 6: you was giving imitations to something.
- 41:04Speaker 3: So I didn't know, all right, we got more with
- 41:06Speaker 3: Wallow when we come back, it's the breakfast club.
- 41:08Speaker 5: Good morning.
- 41:08Speaker 3: Why Everybody's dj NV, Jess, Hilaris Charlamage, the God we
- 41:12Speaker 3: Are the Breakfast Club. Lauryn la Ross was filling in
- 41:15Speaker 3: for Jess and we're still kicking it with Wallow. Now,
- 41:17Speaker 3: I got a question, what did you realize this is
- 41:19Speaker 3: what you wanted to do when you came home and
- 41:21Speaker 3: you said you took that drive and you went back
- 41:22Speaker 3: to you had the McDonald's with the grandma's house. When
- 41:24Speaker 3: did you realize this is what you wanted to do
- 41:26Speaker 3: and how you wanted to change for the next generation.
- 41:30Speaker 6: I was in a shout out to the life of
- 41:31Speaker 6: these Life for Brothers, this organization NWACP, and all the
- 41:35Speaker 6: brothers that was in the penitentiary with me, the elders.
- 41:37Speaker 6: There's an organization called Real Street Talk. So I'm in
- 41:39Speaker 6: there in one of the old OG's brother, Minister Rob,
- 41:42Speaker 6: shout out to him. He come to me, said, Wallow,
- 41:43Speaker 6: we need you to come down here and talk. It
- 41:45Speaker 6: was a bunch of brothers shere, Sharif it was ike
- 41:48Speaker 6: a Big Shannon. It was a bunch of brothers that
- 41:50Speaker 6: was getting together the talk to the two three hundred
- 41:52Speaker 6: inmates a week that was coming in to talk to
- 41:54Speaker 6: them about listen while you in jail used as your
- 41:56Speaker 6: time to educate yourself. So you go back out there
- 41:58Speaker 6: and make something happened with yourself. And it was called
- 41:59Speaker 6: real street. So I was one of the dudes that
- 42:01Speaker 6: spoke in a way to whereas though they really understood
- 42:04Speaker 6: what I was saying because I was like one of
- 42:06Speaker 6: the youngest dude. Even though the og spoke too, and
- 42:08Speaker 6: I seen it they was listening. They was tapped into it.
- 42:10Speaker 6: And it was a brother, brother, Rob Griffin. It was
- 42:12Speaker 6: from the used to do security for Malcolm Xican the
- 42:14Speaker 6: Nation Islam back in the day. And he came to
- 42:16Speaker 6: myself one day and he was like, brother, not too
- 42:18Speaker 6: many brothers out here speak, whereas though multiple generations could
- 42:21Speaker 6: listen to understand it. And then that like you speak clear,
- 42:24Speaker 6: keep doing that. So when I got out, just started
- 42:26Speaker 6: grabbed it, grabbed that phone and just start popping it
- 42:28Speaker 6: because nobody was doing it, and I knew that I
- 42:30Speaker 6: had to do it in a unique way because I
- 42:32Speaker 6: was battling on the timeline. I was battling for attention,
- 42:35Speaker 6: you know when you go down the time I'm looking
- 42:37Speaker 6: at it. I said, okay, I got to battle the girl.
- 42:38Speaker 6: This ass naked. I got to battle my man with
- 42:40Speaker 6: a pound of jerry On. I got to battle the rapper,
- 42:42Speaker 6: the athlete, I said, I got him. That's why you've
- 42:44Speaker 6: seen a lot of my videos. In the beginning. I'll
- 42:45Speaker 6: be running across the highway eighteen Willer come laying on
- 42:47Speaker 6: the ground, catch him on my head. They laughing. But
- 42:49Speaker 6: I'm giving you the message as long as you listening.
- 42:51Speaker 6: Because what everybody was afraid to tell us, like, yo,
- 42:54Speaker 6: you can be great, you amazing, like we build pyramids
- 42:57Speaker 6: with no cranes. I don't know what I read it
- 42:59Speaker 6: in the gem, I holding, we did you mean to
- 43:00Speaker 6: tell me? We came about a slavery. This little lady
- 43:03Speaker 6: got us about a slavery. Sister got us about a slavery,
- 43:05Speaker 6: and that ingenuity? Hold, what is going on? Frederick Douglass
- 43:08Speaker 6: was who he did. What I realized this, if you
- 43:10Speaker 6: can make them laugh, you can make them listen. I
- 43:11Speaker 6: always love comedy because I used to listen to Paul
- 43:14Speaker 6: Moody Richard probably all of my uncle played the records
- 43:17Speaker 6: Red Fox, and I'll be laughing, but they'd be saying
- 43:19Speaker 6: some deep and they lace it up. So I'm like, okay,
- 43:22Speaker 6: I just gotta give it to our people in a
- 43:23Speaker 6: different way, because I just couldn't get the whole Harriet
- 43:26Speaker 6: Tubman thing to just have me just like yo, there's
- 43:28Speaker 6: nothing you can't do. So I just be looking like no,
- 43:31Speaker 6: it's just a different way, in a different language you're
- 43:33Speaker 6: doing it. And one thing that I'm always doing. You'll
- 43:35Speaker 6: never hear me talk down to hate any of our people.
- 43:37Speaker 6: You know why never all of our people. They might
- 43:39Speaker 6: have a different message. And no matter what you're doing
- 43:41Speaker 6: business this that I don't care what you're doing. We
- 43:43Speaker 6: don't have to be doing the same thing. And just
- 43:45Speaker 6: because we ain't doing the same don't even if we
- 43:47Speaker 6: might be doing something a similar wing gotta be mad
- 43:49Speaker 6: at each other. I ain't got to hate you, ain't
- 43:50Speaker 6: gotta hate me, because at the end of the day,
- 43:52Speaker 6: is this really about the uplookment of our people? If
- 43:54Speaker 6: it is, how can I go online and say anything
- 43:57Speaker 6: bad about our people? If I really care about our people,
- 43:59Speaker 6: I can't hear you down to lift them up. Mathematically,
- 44:02Speaker 6: it don't work. So what I do is no matter
- 44:04Speaker 6: if you say something about me, say somebody, I'm never
- 44:06Speaker 6: going to say nothing about nobody because that's not going
- 44:08Speaker 6: to add value to the whole plan of us.
- 44:11Speaker 1: That's Wallow really like this. I'm not gonna do that
- 44:13Speaker 1: even off camera. He's like you the generational curve break
- 44:16Speaker 1: or Wallow.
- 44:17Speaker 6: That's why I'm that.
- 44:18Speaker 1: I'm so glad you put out a book, man, because
- 44:20Speaker 1: I need to see you on every platform having these conversations.
- 44:24Speaker 6: I want to see you on the view. I want
- 44:25Speaker 6: to see you. I'm getting But you know what. You
- 44:27Speaker 6: know what's crazy though, and this is why our Brothers
- 44:30Speaker 6: Club is a major platform for our culture and will
- 44:32Speaker 6: always be. You get it when it's not cool. You
- 44:35Speaker 6: get it before it go popular, you get it before
- 44:37Speaker 6: it goes shiny. You get it and understand that a
- 44:40Speaker 6: lot of these people don't get about it. Even though
- 44:41Speaker 6: you name platforms. They don't care about that. They just
- 44:44Speaker 6: want some shiny. Now, Willow come out of prison. I'm
- 44:47Speaker 6: probably one of the greatest comebacks ever to come out
- 44:49Speaker 6: of prison in life. But they not gonna get that
- 44:51Speaker 6: to a New York Time bestseller. Here at all that stuff.
- 44:54Speaker 6: They don't understand us. And we control cool, but a
- 44:56Speaker 6: lot of times we don't own it. So they try
- 44:58Speaker 6: to get a close proximity our coolness. And we so
- 45:01Speaker 6: much suck as we don't be understanding that we don't
- 45:03Speaker 6: even know why when we're being used out here. That's
- 45:06Speaker 6: why it's a lot of that I see online. I'll
- 45:08Speaker 6: be like, damn, we googies. Can't nobody outside of us
- 45:11Speaker 6: validate us but us. I'm never gonna let nobody tell
- 45:16Speaker 6: me that you're not cool, that you not cool that
- 45:18Speaker 6: outside our culture. And I'm never gonna let nobody give
- 45:21Speaker 6: an approval of what's cool and what's not outside of
- 45:23Speaker 6: our culture of this blackness. I love being black. I'm
- 45:26Speaker 6: a die blackst right. My family is black. I look
- 45:29Speaker 6: at us and I say, we some extraordinary people. And
- 45:31Speaker 6: it's not taking that enough from any other group of people,
- 45:33Speaker 6: but everybody else love themselves. So I'm gonna love me
- 45:35Speaker 6: and you know, and I got some extraordinary people that's
- 45:37Speaker 6: not black, this family, that's bus. But at the end
- 45:39Speaker 6: of the day, until we start loving us on all levels,
- 45:42Speaker 6: we're gonna be left behind.
- 45:44Speaker 3: What do you think about when when Michael Rubin was
- 45:45Speaker 3: up here and said pretty much the same thing that
- 45:47Speaker 3: you just said right now, but he just said we
- 45:51Speaker 3: heard our.
- 45:54Speaker 5: He basically said, our community hurts ourselves.
- 45:56Speaker 6: That's what even saying. Let me say this though. Let
- 45:58Speaker 6: me say this though, everything is the messaging because I
- 46:00Speaker 6: can't speak on behalf of you know, different races. I
- 46:04Speaker 6: can't do that because they gonna like so that's normal.
- 46:07Speaker 6: But one thing that I can say is that everybody
- 46:09Speaker 6: is speculating everybody's around. On that day that Meek was
- 46:12Speaker 6: in that courtroom, I was in that courtroom to come
- 46:14Speaker 6: to speak for me. Michael Rubin was in that courtroom.
- 46:16Speaker 6: And when we took that break after the the you know,
- 46:18Speaker 6: the judge was roughing me up I'm talking about. She
- 46:20Speaker 6: was like, she was roughing me up. We went outside
- 46:23Speaker 6: to the hallway and Mike looked at us and said,
- 46:24Speaker 6: what's going on in here? Like this guy was really shocked.
- 46:27Speaker 6: I'm like, this is being black in America. He was like,
- 46:29Speaker 6: what the I'm talking about? He was personally pissed because
- 46:32Speaker 6: he didn't understand them to be going because a lot
- 46:33Speaker 6: of people just don't know.
- 46:34Speaker 1: He said, he didn't realize there was two Americas until
- 46:36Speaker 1: that he.
- 46:37Speaker 6: Listen that day. He looked at and then he attempted
- 46:39Speaker 6: to walk back in the courtroom after we had the conversation,
- 46:42Speaker 6: and she slapped him around and he like what the
- 46:44Speaker 6: like cause he stood up and spoke and stood up,
- 46:46Speaker 6: and she was like all right, writing in the paper
- 46:47Speaker 6: like he went and done something. I respect Mike for that.
- 46:50Speaker 6: You know, people when have their opinions on people. But
- 46:52Speaker 6: I'm talking about when I see a good person, I
- 46:54Speaker 6: see a good person, I salute a good person. That's it.
- 46:56Speaker 6: I ain't with all that other because I'm gonna tell
- 46:58Speaker 6: you something. Man, to be real with you, I got
- 46:59Speaker 6: a lot of people that's not black. They help out
- 47:01Speaker 6: of me because they really people that really believe that.
- 47:04Speaker 6: And I ain't talking about business. I'm talking about in life,
- 47:06Speaker 6: people that people that love you love you. It's not
- 47:08Speaker 6: it's not always gonna be a colored thing. And I
- 47:10Speaker 6: know we fight so much to get us together, but
- 47:13Speaker 6: at the end of the day, while you spend your
- 47:15Speaker 6: time on this planet, you better love who loved you,
- 47:18Speaker 6: and you better figure out who loved you and who
- 47:19Speaker 6: got your back. Because I'm gonna tell you something. I
- 47:22Speaker 6: don't know what anybody else doing out here, but I'm
- 47:24Speaker 6: forty five and I'm saying to myself, hopefully I get
- 47:26Speaker 6: another forty five out here because my grandma ninety. So
- 47:29Speaker 6: I'm measuring it by my uncle James, rusting piece of him.
- 47:31Speaker 6: He died, he was ninety three or ninety four. But
- 47:34Speaker 6: we gotta we got a nice limp in our joint.
- 47:37Speaker 6: Oh was that a pause camp? I gotta run that podcas,
- 47:39Speaker 6: because I'm talking about the lift of years. I'm not
- 47:41Speaker 6: saying but oh yeah, pass definitely, I got to call it.
- 47:46Speaker 6: But what I'm saying is, well, you was a pause champion.
- 47:49Speaker 6: He got the more of you and the guinnis. But
- 47:52Speaker 6: I'm gonna say this. I'm gonna say this though I'm
- 47:54Speaker 6: looking at it like I'm forty five. Now, there's a
- 47:56Speaker 6: big chance I'm getting out of this joint one day.
- 47:59Speaker 6: I can't worry. I'm gonna be going. I gotta go.
- 48:02Speaker 6: I gotta go, and when I go, my whole thing.
- 48:04Speaker 6: I want to be able to say I left that planet.

- 48:08Speaker 6: I do me. If I want to buy someone buy it.
- 48:09Speaker 6: If I wanna go somewhere, I gonna somewhere. I'm not
- 48:11Speaker 6: living my life based off of some fears because guess what,

- 48:17Speaker 6: Like damn, I should have got busy. Damn I should
- 48:19Speaker 6: have went here. Damn I should have done this. We
- 48:20Speaker 6: don't do it enough. We don't live enough. We don't
- 48:22Speaker 6: we don't put more positive energy out enough. Because I'm
- 48:24Speaker 6: saying to myself, Damn, I gotta I got a lot
- 48:26Speaker 6: of shit to make up on because I know, you know,
- 48:28Speaker 6: when I see God, I don't want it to be
- 48:30Speaker 6: like that. And I'll tell you because God get funky
- 48:32Speaker 6: with people. You know what I mean. I don't want
- 48:33Speaker 6: to be the one who, like you, had plenty of time.
- 48:35Speaker 6: You know where you gotta go at the end of
- 48:37Speaker 6: the day. I just try to put the best energy
- 48:39Speaker 6: possible out there to our people to let them know, Listen, man,

- 49:00Speaker 3: thing I want you to talk about before we leave,
- 49:02Speaker 3: you said.
- 49:03Speaker 1: You said the feeling of not being punished for doing
- 49:05Speaker 1: something you knew was wrong was equivalent to your first orgasm.
- 49:09Speaker 1: How long did it take for you to actually feel
- 49:11Speaker 1: guilt when when you did something wrong?
- 49:12Speaker 6: Man, it took me a while because you're young and
- 49:14Speaker 6: you just don't know, so it takes you a while,
- 49:16Speaker 6: and then when it hit you just be like, damn,
- 49:18Speaker 6: there's some crazy. But it was a while. It was
- 49:21Speaker 6: just a thirsty It was just I don't know. I
- 49:22Speaker 6: think I was just part of stealing an American dream.
- 49:25Speaker 6: I was doing my thing because I wanted to be
- 49:26Speaker 6: You understand, I'm looking at these movies, man, I'm looking
- 49:29Speaker 6: at rayleiol In Modude Feelers, and you know the part
- 49:32Speaker 6: where he burning the cars up, He's throwing the joint.
- 49:34Speaker 6: He said. By the time I was fourteen, I was
- 49:36Speaker 6: making more money than the grown ups around my neighborhood.
- 49:39Speaker 6: I'm like, damn, I wanted to be there. I wanted
- 49:40Speaker 6: some money. Because we're gonna be obvious, I always tell
- 49:43Speaker 6: people that when that guy in the eighties pull up
- 49:46Speaker 6: with that Benz and if you know what I'm telling me,
- 49:47Speaker 6: he got the Bens in the eighties. He got that

- 50:12Speaker 6: speaking to him. I'm sitting on the step watching all
- 50:14Speaker 6: they take place. So I said, Damn, I gotta be
- 50:16Speaker 6: a part of the in the black community. The women
- 50:18Speaker 6: dictate who the men want to grow up to be
- 50:20Speaker 6: based off of who they date. Real So I'm looking
- 50:23Speaker 6: at it like I'm only seeing these girls. They the

- 55:48Speaker 6: I heard them.
- 55:49Speaker 3: Donkey again, man donkey Uh.
- 55:58Speaker 6: Eyas true?
- 56:02Speaker 1: Yes, donkey today goes to Reginald renods in Mia bagging Stuce.
- 56:08Speaker 1: I'm sure I pronounce that name wrong, but we can
- 56:10Speaker 1: call her me a bag of dope. They are thirty
- 56:12Speaker 1: five and thirty seven years old, respectfully. They are from Portland, Oregon.
- 56:15Speaker 1: And I don't know why. When I saw this story
- 56:16Speaker 1: any day, I thought to myself, either I'm experiencing dejapu
- 56:19Speaker 1: or I've done this story before. But I figured out
- 56:21Speaker 1: the issue. The issue is there's this bag that people buy.
- 56:25Speaker 1: In the bag says things about drugs on it. This particular,
- 56:28Speaker 1: in this particular case, Reginald and Mia had a bag
- 56:31Speaker 1: that said definitely not a bag full of drugs. That's
- 56:34Speaker 1: what it's said on the bag. Definitely not a bag
- 56:37Speaker 1: full of drugs. Now, if I was a police officer
- 56:39Speaker 1: or any type of law enforcement and there was a
- 56:41Speaker 1: bag in your car that said definitely not a bag
- 56:43Speaker 1: full of drugs, guess what bag, I'm gonna probably search first. Now,
- 56:47Speaker 1: granted I wouldn't actually believe someone is stupid enough to
- 56:49Speaker 1: have a bag full of drugs in a bag labeled
- 56:51Speaker 1: bag full of drugs, but this is this is her, Okay,
- 56:54Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Whatever level of stupidity your brain can conceive,
- 56:58Speaker 1: there is a donkey on this planet who can.
- 57:00Speaker 4: Let's go to ABC ten for the report.
- 57:01Speaker 12: Police Tony, We're looking into a story that seems hard
- 57:04Speaker 12: to believe. It claims a couple was arrested after officers
- 57:07Speaker 12: found drugs in a bag that had definitely not a
- 57:10Speaker 12: bag full of drugs printed on it, and focus on
- 57:13Speaker 12: a true The Portland Police Bureau in Oregon look at
- 57:17Speaker 12: this posted this picture on social media. They say they
- 57:20Speaker 12: discover the bag, along with cash, a gun, and scales
- 57:23Speaker 12: during a traffic stop tuesday. Inside the bag, you guessed
- 57:28Speaker 12: that they found more than ten grams of fentanyl and meth. Yeah,
- 57:31Speaker 12: the couple was booked on drug charges along with unauthorized
- 57:34Speaker 12: use of a vehicle and possession of a stolen vehicle.
- 57:39Speaker 1: See some of these donkeys be layered. Why would you
- 57:42Speaker 1: be riding dirty in a stolen car? Can you please
- 57:45Speaker 1: commit to one crime at a time? Do you simultaneously
- 57:47Speaker 1: have to be committing multiple fellow the offenses? And if
- 57:49Speaker 1: you're going to be in a stolen car where the
- 57:51Speaker 1: four Taurus's ignition has been visibly tampered with, why would
- 57:55Speaker 1: you have baggies of drugs just visible in a stolen car?
- 57:59Speaker 4: Not to mention, you got this.
- 58:00Speaker 1: Big brown canvas bag labeled definitely not a bag full
- 58:04Speaker 1: of drugs, And in that bag, and in that bag
- 58:06Speaker 1: with seventy nine blue fens and all pills three fake.
- 58:12Speaker 4: What like your mouth waters?
- 58:13Speaker 11: Just that's crazy?
- 58:16Speaker 4: Are you doing in Delaware?
- 58:18Speaker 1: Three fake oxycodone tablets and two hundred and thirty grams
- 58:21Speaker 1: of meth?
- 58:21Speaker 4: Not to mention a loaded thirty eight.
- 58:24Speaker 1: I know I wrote a book called Getting on Us
- 58:25Speaker 1: to Die line, But damn okay, rech no lema. You
- 58:29Speaker 1: know they probably was telling the officers like, look, officer,
- 58:32Speaker 1: we'll just practicing radical honesty.
- 58:34Speaker 4: You know, transparency in crime is.
- 58:36Speaker 1: A new movement, and that officer was like, thank you
- 58:38Speaker 1: for making my job easier.
- 58:40Speaker 6: By the way, this.
- 58:40Speaker 1: Transparency and crime movement still comes with fifteen years to life. Now.
- 58:44Speaker 4: I know what some of you might be thinking, it's
- 58:46Speaker 4: organ aren't drugs legal? And Oregon?
- 58:49Speaker 1: Well, in twenty twenty, organ decriminalized the possession of small
- 58:52Speaker 1: amounts of hard drugs in an effort to readirect city
- 58:54Speaker 1: funding from criminalization and toward treatment of substance use disorders.
- 58:58Speaker 1: To measure pass with high levels of public support, that
- 59:01Speaker 1: faltered as overdose and homelessness rates roles in the state
- 59:04Speaker 1: during the COVID nineteen pandemic when Rihanna makeup became widely available.
- 59:09Speaker 1: But in September, the state recriminalized drug possession.
- 59:12Speaker 4: So the moral of the story is all of this
- 59:14Speaker 4: was illegal. Okay. There's absolutely no right way.
- 59:18Speaker 1: To do the wrong thing, even in Oregon, and everything
- 59:21Speaker 1: Reginald and Mia did.
- 59:23Speaker 4: Was completely wrong. Okay.
- 59:24Speaker 1: Reginald and Mia might be the first criminals in the
- 59:26Speaker 1: history of crime who actually labeled the evidence for the police.
- 59:30Speaker 1: And I know they thought labeling it not a bag
- 59:33Speaker 1: full of drugs would throw people off, like, there's no
- 59:36Speaker 1: way folks would think they were that dumb.
- 59:40Speaker 4: But it's not about what we think.
- 59:41Speaker 1: It's about what you know about yourself, Reginald and Mia Okay,
- 59:46Speaker 1: you had to know that you are.
- 59:49Speaker 4: Indeed that dumb.
- 59:51Speaker 1: Okay, please get Reginald Reynolds and Mia Baggings, the Sweet Sounds.
- 59:55Speaker 4: And the Hamiltones.
- 1:00:01Speaker 15: Oh oh they.
- 1:00:15Speaker 4: That is ridiculous. A question that's like Lauren wearing a
- 1:00:18Speaker 4: T shirt that says definitely not single.
- 1:00:22Speaker 11: Like you wearing a T shirt saying definitely healed because.
- 1:00:25Speaker 4: It's a journey is yes, okay, okay, what is your question?
- 1:00:30Speaker 11: Like weed and portchit and guess who's.
- 1:00:32Speaker 4: Need I love to be thank you very much, my girl.
- 1:00:39Speaker 14: But everybody knows that the real cat like the comebacks.
- 1:00:42Speaker 14: It's mean, it's the house that you need Leaks built.
- 1:00:45Speaker 14: But anyway, my question before I was rudely interrupted, yes'm
- 1:00:50Speaker 14: is this.
- 1:00:50Speaker 11: Not entrapment though? Because why would you be allowed.
- 1:00:53Speaker 14: To sell a back that says definitely not drugs knowing
- 1:00:55Speaker 14: that someone might put drugs in it because they think
- 1:00:58Speaker 14: it's like funny or something.
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: There's this thing called attire, and so whoever made that
- 1:01:01Speaker 1: bag was just making it, probably just to be funny,
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: and they knew that, you know, people would walk around
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: with the buggers just like up. The bag is like
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: a fashion statement, but they didn't think they actually put
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: drugs inside of it.
- 1:01:10Speaker 6: You got a burket?
- 1:01:11Speaker 5: What is this on your berkey?
- 1:01:12Speaker 4: Not fake?
- 1:01:13Speaker 11: Yes, like this shout out the Sunday Saturdays.
- 1:01:17Speaker 1: You take like this.
- 1:01:17Speaker 11: Burken but that that has nothing.
- 1:01:21Speaker 6: I hate this.
- 1:01:21Speaker 11: I just was that was a whole tree. You playing today,
- 1:01:27Speaker 11: baby in the soil. Alright, don't worry. I got a
- 1:01:33Speaker 11: new bob and I got.
- 1:01:34Speaker 5: Some I'm ready to breakfast club.
- 1:01:38Speaker 3: Warning everybody, as Steen j n V. Charlamage the goud
- 1:01:41Speaker 3: we are the breakfast Club. We got a special guest.
- 1:01:44Speaker 4: In the building, my guy.
- 1:01:45Speaker 3: He's an author New York Time best selling author. He's
- 1:01:48Speaker 3: an entrepreneur, he is a podcast host and now he
- 1:01:52Speaker 3: is a model as well. Ladies and gentlemen, j she
- 1:01:56Speaker 3: a mother.
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: By the way, Jay Sheddy is more than a podcast hole.
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: She has one of the top ten biggest podcasts in
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: the world. Right, Okay, I think that's a very important
- 1:02:05Speaker 1: to note because everybody got a podcast.
- 1:02:07Speaker 4: Okay.
- 1:02:07Speaker 1: Jay said he had one of the top ten biggest
- 1:02:09Speaker 1: podcast in the world was the number five.
- 1:02:10Speaker 6: I think.
- 1:02:11Speaker 9: I think so that's on Spotify. I think that's what
- 1:02:13Speaker 9: it came out us. But no, thank you for having me, guys.
- 1:02:15Speaker 9: I love being here with you, guys. I'm so grateful
- 1:02:17Speaker 9: to be back with you. Congrats on the new studio
- 1:02:19Speaker 9: and that's not new you for your viewers, but it's
- 1:02:21Speaker 9: new for me being in with you. But thank you,
- 1:02:23Speaker 9: Thank you guys.
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: You just sat down with First Lady Michelle Obama. Conversation
- 1:02:27Speaker 1: was everywhere right, and she expressed how terrified she was
- 1:02:32Speaker 1: about this election year. What was it like hearing that
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: from her? And how do you process that? Did that
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: give you anxiety when you hit it?
- 1:02:39Speaker 9: Yeah, it's an interesting thought process because I can't vote
- 1:02:42Speaker 9: in this country. I moved here eight years ago. I
- 1:02:45Speaker 9: have a green card, but I don't you know, I
- 1:02:47Speaker 9: don't have voting rights, and I moved here the Trump
- 1:02:52Speaker 9: became president in twenty sixteen, and so I've had an
- 1:02:56Speaker 9: interesting education in the United States. I haven't you know,
- 1:03:00Speaker 9: I didn't grow up learning American history or American politics,
- 1:03:04Speaker 9: so I'm also very uneducated in that space. Specifically, I
- 1:03:08Speaker 9: think for me, I look at most things as things
- 1:03:14Speaker 9: I can and can't control. And when I think about
- 1:03:18Speaker 9: things that make me anxious on a global scale, I
- 1:03:21Speaker 9: often ask myself what is the root of that anxiety
- 1:03:24Speaker 9: in my community? So if I'm seeing whether it's ignorance,
- 1:03:29Speaker 9: whether it's a lack of understanding, whether it's a lack
- 1:03:32Speaker 9: of curiosity, openness, compassion on a global scale, I'm asking myself,
- 1:03:36Speaker 9: where does that exist within me and my friends and
- 1:03:39Speaker 9: my society, And how do I start impacting that because
- 1:03:42Speaker 9: that I can control. And so I've been practicing that
- 1:03:44Speaker 9: for a long time because I feel that there's a
- 1:03:47Speaker 9: lot of things that give me anxiety, Like there's a
- 1:03:49Speaker 9: lot of things that can stress me out. There's something
- 1:03:51Speaker 9: new in the news every day that can do that.
- 1:03:52Speaker 9: So to me, I try and bring down global events
- 1:03:56Speaker 9: into the personal and intimate because otherwise it's so chaotic
- 1:04:00Speaker 9: and so hard to deal with.
- 1:04:01Speaker 4: How many times do you how often have you broken
- 1:04:04Speaker 4: your own eight rules of love?
- 1:04:05Speaker 5: Oh?
- 1:04:06Speaker 3: Every day?
- 1:04:07Speaker 4: Every day? Man, every day.
- 1:04:10Speaker 9: I don't think it's you know, it goes back to
- 1:04:11Speaker 9: that how can I heal someone? I'm still healing myself,
- 1:04:14Speaker 9: And it goes to the reality of and I think
- 1:04:16Speaker 9: we all know this at this table. Everything in life
- 1:04:19Speaker 9: is a process, right, Like even if you took something
- 1:04:23Speaker 9: really tangible, Like we say this person is rich, we
- 1:04:27Speaker 9: talk about them as if they can never lose it
- 1:04:30Speaker 9: and that will always be theirs. That's actually not true.
- 1:04:33Speaker 9: People could lose all their money. We talk about someone
- 1:04:36Speaker 9: being famous, you could lose that. So in the same
- 1:04:39Speaker 9: way healing progress, development, you can lose it. And I
- 1:04:42Speaker 9: think we've got so lost in that destination addiction, the
- 1:04:46Speaker 9: belief that you get to a point from which there
- 1:04:49Speaker 9: is no return. And I think that destination addiction is
- 1:04:53Speaker 9: really misleading in the wellness space because we feel like,
- 1:04:56Speaker 9: oh now I'm healed. And I think it comes from
- 1:04:59Speaker 9: this idea of if you think about it right, social
- 1:05:01Speaker 9: media is full before and off the pictures, this where
- 1:05:03Speaker 9: I used to be, look at where I am now, right,
- 1:05:06Speaker 9: And it's always like saying I used to be in
- 1:05:08Speaker 9: a bad place, now I'm in a great place. No process,
- 1:05:10Speaker 9: no process, and linear when the real life life is
- 1:05:13Speaker 9: this every day it's just cyclical. And I think we've
- 1:05:17Speaker 9: made our minds feel that journey's are linear. It's like
- 1:05:21Speaker 9: A to B, like going from LA to New York
- 1:05:24Speaker 9: or New York to LA it's linear, but we know
- 1:05:26Speaker 9: that life is so much more cyclical. And so yes,
- 1:05:28Speaker 9: I've broken the eight Rules of Love every day, every
- 1:05:31Speaker 9: week of my life.
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: One of the things you said, man, that I think
- 1:05:33Speaker 1: is so important that I want people to really get
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: from this if they don't get nothing else from this conversation,
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: is like, there's no manual for any of this. You're
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: not going to be the perfect husband, You're not going
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: to be the perfect father. I spend so much time
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: simply apologizing to my wife and apologizing to my kids
- 1:05:51Speaker 1: because I don't ever want them to think that I'm
- 1:05:54Speaker 1: trying to come off with some perfect human who never
- 1:05:56Speaker 1: gets anything wrong right.
- 1:05:58Speaker 4: And I think that is that's very important to do.
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: And just being present, like when you're when.
- 1:06:04Speaker 4: You're when your wife calls, your child calls.
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: You, even if you in that moment you weren't present.
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: As soon as I'm done whatever I'm doing, I'm so
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: sorry that you know I had to do that, but
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: I had to go do X, Y and Z in
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: that moment.
- 1:06:15Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 1:06:15Speaker 9: Absolutely, And I think I think the thing about the
- 1:06:17Speaker 9: point you just made, and I hope this is what
- 1:06:19Speaker 9: someone takes away from this as well is I think
- 1:06:21Speaker 9: a lot of us in our minds when we do introspect,
- 1:06:24Speaker 9: we're quite heavy and harsh on ourselves. I think a
- 1:06:27Speaker 9: lot of people are walking around with a internal in
- 1:06:33Speaker 9: a critical voice that is completely making them feel terrible,
- 1:06:37Speaker 9: and so when anyone says something externally, it's worse. And
- 1:06:39Speaker 9: I just want to remind people that you can't hate
- 1:06:42Speaker 9: yourself into change, Like you can't guilt yourself into growth.
- 1:06:46Speaker 9: You can't blame yourself into a breakthrough. When was the
- 1:06:50Speaker 9: last time you changed who you were because someone hated you?
- 1:06:54Speaker 4: Never when was.
- 1:06:55Speaker 9: The last time you supported someone you hate deeply? So
- 1:07:00Speaker 9: if you're hating, blaming, guilty yourself, it may get you started,
- 1:07:04Speaker 9: but it won't get you there. And so anyone who's
- 1:07:06Speaker 9: giving themselves a hard time, I'm not saying to give
- 1:07:08Speaker 9: yourself an easy time, but that inner grace, that inner
- 1:07:12Speaker 9: forgiveness is such an important part of you actually becoming better.
- 1:07:15Speaker 9: So you're not doing it because you're trying to take
- 1:07:17Speaker 9: it easy on yourself. You're doing it because it's going
- 1:07:19Speaker 9: to let you get through the hard times.
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: The most important thing, I think for a lot of
- 1:07:23Speaker 3: people is back to what you said with forgiveness and grace.
- 1:07:26Speaker 6: Right.
- 1:07:27Speaker 5: A lot of things that we do is learn behavior.
- 1:07:29Speaker 8: Right.
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: Why do people pop their children usually because they got
- 1:07:33Speaker 3: popped as a child. You know a lot of the
- 1:07:35Speaker 3: things that we learned and we were taught with.
- 1:07:37Speaker 9: Yeah, there's that famous quote you just reminded me of
- 1:07:39Speaker 9: that says, by the time you realize that your parents
- 1:07:42Speaker 9: are right, your kids are telling you that you're wrong.
- 1:07:45Speaker 9: And it's that awkward position that we end up in.
- 1:07:48Speaker 9: But you know what's really interesting about that. I was
- 1:07:50Speaker 9: talking to someone about this at dinner last night, and
- 1:07:53Speaker 9: there's this old story that I heard a while ago,
- 1:07:56Speaker 9: and it's always resonated with me, even with my own childhood,
- 1:08:00Speaker 9: not in particular, but in essence. So the story goes
- 1:08:04Speaker 9: that these two men were interviewed and one was an
- 1:08:07Speaker 9: alcoholic and the other one had never drunk alcohol, and
- 1:08:09Speaker 9: they were brothers, and they interviewed them and then they
- 1:08:12Speaker 9: asked the one who drank alcohol and was an alcoholic,
- 1:08:15Speaker 9: he said, why are you an alcoholic? He said, my
- 1:08:17Speaker 9: dad was an alcoholic. And then they asked the other brother,
- 1:08:19Speaker 9: why don't you drink? And he said, my dad was
- 1:08:21Speaker 9: an alcoholic. And so I think a lot of us
- 1:08:23Speaker 9: got an education and what not to do, but we
- 1:08:26Speaker 9: ended up repeating it instead of breaking the cycle. And
- 1:08:30Speaker 9: I feel like in my life I had to. I
- 1:08:32Speaker 9: got a great education in a lot of my areas
- 1:08:34Speaker 9: of life in what not to do and who not
- 1:08:36Speaker 9: to be, and I took all those little notes down
- 1:08:39Speaker 9: and I think that's what's improved my life. So I
- 1:08:41Speaker 9: think if we're constantly waiting for the perfect example and
- 1:08:44Speaker 9: the perfect space and the perfect surroundings and the perfect
- 1:08:48Speaker 9: aren't an uncle and the perfect parent, it's like we
- 1:08:50Speaker 9: may be waiting forever because no one's perfect. So we
- 1:08:53Speaker 9: almost have to make a list of what not to do,
- 1:08:56Speaker 9: but what not to do also how.
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: To That's why that's why podcast on Purpose is so important.
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: That's my podcast, like you know, Debbie Brown deeply Well,
- 1:09:04Speaker 1: is so important because we learn how to, you know,
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: break break a lot of these cycles.
- 1:09:08Speaker 3: Absolutely, we got more with Jay Shetty when we come
- 1:09:11Speaker 3: back keeping lock this the breakfast club, Good morning morning.
- 1:09:14Speaker 3: Everybody is the DJ en Vy Charlamagne the guy. We
- 1:09:17Speaker 3: are the breakfast Club. We're still kicking it with Jay Shetty, Charlamagne.
- 1:09:20Speaker 4: Are you wearing gap right now?
- 1:09:21Speaker 9: No, no, right now, Okay, I'm just because you saw
- 1:09:23Speaker 9: that the gap caps, that's.
- 1:09:30Speaker 4: Just thought he was handsome. I was like, all right,
- 1:09:34Speaker 4: j you know, you know I wasn't expecting that from you.
- 1:09:39Speaker 4: Thank you, man.
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: I appreciate you know you and your wife do the
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: holiday holiday gap campaign.
- 1:09:43Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, we we were just you know, when we
- 1:09:45Speaker 9: got asked to do that, it was like we couldn't
- 1:09:47Speaker 9: believe it.
- 1:09:47Speaker 4: We're like, what is this?
- 1:09:48Speaker 9: You know, like we grew up watching the gap campaigns,
- 1:09:51Speaker 9: like the holiday campaigns especially, and any I've said to
- 1:09:55Speaker 9: my wife, any time I get to do any work
- 1:09:57Speaker 9: with her is my favorite thing because I have to
- 1:09:59Speaker 9: hang with all day. And so that shoot was fun.
- 1:10:02Speaker 9: They made it fun. The creative team was fantastic, Like
- 1:10:04Speaker 9: it was a good time. We walked out of there
- 1:10:06Speaker 9: having had a great day. So yeah, it was a
- 1:10:08Speaker 9: lot of fun. And then was it was surreal because
- 1:10:11Speaker 9: you know, yeah, definitely never been a model, So I.
- 1:10:15Speaker 4: Wanted to ask you to do you get pushed back from.
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: People who watch you sit down with a Michelle Obama
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: or a Jada Pinkey Smith.
- 1:10:22Speaker 4: Why didn't you challenge them on this? Why didn't you
- 1:10:24Speaker 4: challenge them on that?
- 1:10:25Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't get pushed back for not challenging people
- 1:10:28Speaker 9: because I think the questions I ask are challenging in
- 1:10:30Speaker 9: a different way. But I think I'll get pushed back
- 1:10:32Speaker 9: because someone doesn't like that person. Yeah, but what I've
- 1:10:35Speaker 9: found every single time is that when someone actually listens
- 1:10:40Speaker 9: to the episode or watches it on YouTube, if you
- 1:10:43Speaker 9: look at that comment section, it is spectacular, like when
- 1:10:48Speaker 9: someone's actually taking out time out of the day to
- 1:10:50Speaker 9: listen for an hour or watch for an hour, and
- 1:10:53Speaker 9: then you see the comment section, you'll see people having
- 1:10:56Speaker 9: complete I had people reaching out about both those episodes,
- 1:10:59Speaker 9: the President Biden interview as well that we did earlier
- 1:11:02Speaker 9: last year, and the comments of people who actually listened
- 1:11:06Speaker 9: to it. And by the way, a lot of people
- 1:11:07Speaker 9: were like, hey, I don't agree with this person's politics.
- 1:11:11Speaker 9: I'm actually on completely on the other side. But I
- 1:11:14Speaker 9: just want you to know that listening to this interview
- 1:11:16Speaker 9: was so enlightening from a human perspective. Thank you for
- 1:11:19Speaker 9: putting it out there. And I respect that approach because
- 1:11:21Speaker 9: I think that's why I do the interview. I don't
- 1:11:24Speaker 9: do the interview for any other reason apart from us
- 1:11:27Speaker 9: looking at the broken mirror and looking back and saying, Okay,
- 1:11:31Speaker 9: where can I resonate with the humanity of this individual
- 1:11:33Speaker 9: or where can I relate to this person? So yeah,
- 1:11:36Speaker 9: I think that's generally the pushback. But the comments section.
- 1:11:40Speaker 9: I encourage you on those episodes to go look at
- 1:11:42Speaker 9: the YouTube comment section. It's phenomenal to read what people
- 1:11:46Speaker 9: are getting.
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: Yeah, because I think your conversation with Jada Pinkett Smith
- 1:11:50Speaker 1: the clips is what's set off the Jada pinker hatred,
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: not because of you.
- 1:11:55Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what I mean.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: But if you didn't watch the whole conversation in context
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: and you just saw clips.
- 1:12:02Speaker 9: Yeah, she got a tech yeah, yeah, and Jada's a
- 1:12:04Speaker 9: dear friend for me. So it's yeah, it's it's a
- 1:12:07Speaker 9: tough one because I think any clip about anyone I said.
- 1:12:11Speaker 4: I had someone say this to me today.
- 1:12:12Speaker 9: Yesterday they said to me Jay, they met me for
- 1:12:14Speaker 9: the first time and they were like, Jay, you're so
- 1:12:16Speaker 9: much nicer in person. I didn't like you off of
- 1:12:19Speaker 9: your Instagram and I was like, fair enough, Like that's cool,
- 1:12:22Speaker 9: but it's so hard for me to be all of
- 1:12:25Speaker 9: myself in thirty seconds and I'm trying my best. You're
- 1:12:28Speaker 9: trying your best you'll try your best, but it's hard
- 1:12:30Speaker 9: for any of.
- 1:12:31Speaker 4: Us like not to like about you on Instagram. You're
- 1:12:34Speaker 4: with your wife.
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: No, yeah, puppy's looking your fate.
- 1:12:38Speaker 9: No, in the sense of I think he was just
- 1:12:40Speaker 9: like you know, I feel like you feel a bit
- 1:12:43Speaker 9: like whatever it was, like whatever he's I don't even
- 1:12:45Speaker 9: know what it was. But I think all of us,
- 1:12:47Speaker 9: if you judged any of ourselves at thirty second real, oh,
- 1:12:50Speaker 9: I'm sure all of us would agree it's not who
- 1:12:52Speaker 9: we are, you know.
- 1:12:52Speaker 4: So, and that's why I have stuck.
- 1:12:54Speaker 9: I do stuff with my wife because I feel I'm
- 1:12:56Speaker 9: most myself when I'm with my wife because naturally it's
- 1:12:58Speaker 9: the person I spend the most time with.
- 1:13:00Speaker 4: And so, but even.
- 1:13:01Speaker 9: Even with all of us, like, I've got to meet
- 1:13:03Speaker 9: you guys in person a few times now. We win
- 1:13:05Speaker 9: canned with iHeart on, you know, for the festival last
- 1:13:09Speaker 9: year together, And I think when you've met people in person,
- 1:13:12Speaker 9: that's the only time you're going to feel like you've
- 1:13:14Speaker 9: got to know them. I don't think anyone under I
- 1:13:17Speaker 9: feel like if someone if someone okay, if someone follows
- 1:13:19Speaker 9: me on Instagram, they understand maybe ten percent of who
- 1:13:22Speaker 9: I am. If they listen to my podcast, they probably
- 1:13:24Speaker 9: understand seventy five percent of who I am, because they're
- 1:13:27Speaker 9: really dialing into who I am. If they've read my
- 1:13:29Speaker 9: books and my podcast, they're probably like at that eighty
- 1:13:30Speaker 9: nine percent. If they've seen me live, there at the
- 1:13:32Speaker 9: ninety five percent, and then when someone's met me in person,
- 1:13:34Speaker 9: it's one hundred percent. And so I think it's all percentages.
- 1:13:37Speaker 9: And I, you know, I hope that we all again
- 1:13:41Speaker 9: going back to forgiveness and grace. I hope that we
- 1:13:43Speaker 9: can all give each other a bit more benefit of
- 1:13:45Speaker 9: the doubt because I think it will go a long
- 1:13:47Speaker 9: way for people.
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: You say, language has created the word loneliness they express
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: the pain of being alone, and it has created the
- 1:13:55Speaker 1: word solitude, express the glory of being alone. Could you
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: could expound on that?
- 1:14:01Speaker 9: Yeah, it's a Paul Tillich quote. The writer Paul Tillich
- 1:14:03Speaker 9: said that, and to me, I extrapolated from his work
- 1:14:07Speaker 9: for my book because I was realizing that language and
- 1:14:11Speaker 9: the way we use words completely defines how we think
- 1:14:14Speaker 9: about things. So when you hear the word loneliness, you
- 1:14:17Speaker 9: think sadness, you think potentially depression, you think negativity. Of course,
- 1:14:21Speaker 9: solitude is spending time alone with yourself, but with strength,
- 1:14:26Speaker 9: with courage, as Paul Tillet says, glory. So what I've
- 1:14:30Speaker 9: realized is we've got to be so careful with the
- 1:14:32Speaker 9: language we use in our minds. Every single word is
- 1:14:35Speaker 9: a seed for either a weed or a flower, and
- 1:14:39Speaker 9: so every single word that you say is defining. So
- 1:14:41Speaker 9: if I keep saying I'm lonely, I'm lonely, I'm lonely,
- 1:14:44Speaker 9: that's going to impact how I feel. But if I
- 1:14:46Speaker 9: say I'm in solitude, all of a sudden, there's a
- 1:14:48Speaker 9: strength that comes with that. And so I just want
- 1:14:50Speaker 9: to encourage people to recognize that being alone doesn't have
- 1:14:54Speaker 9: to be a weakness. It can be a time of
- 1:14:56Speaker 9: strength and self awareness and personal growth. But it is
- 1:15:00Speaker 9: about the language that we use with ourselves. And so
- 1:15:02Speaker 9: I would ask everyone to this one activity. Think about
- 1:15:05Speaker 9: the one word that comes to your mind the moment
- 1:15:08Speaker 9: you wake up or the moment you go to sleep.
- 1:15:11Speaker 9: Make that word a word that you want it to be.
- 1:15:13Speaker 9: Don't let the word you go to sleep with, and
- 1:15:15Speaker 9: don't let the word you wake up with be a
- 1:15:17Speaker 9: word that makes you feel negative, unhealthy, or weak, Because
- 1:15:22Speaker 9: those studies show we have sixty to eighty thousand thoughts
- 1:15:25Speaker 9: per day, and eighty percent of them are negative and
- 1:15:28Speaker 9: eighty percent of them are repetitive, which means you're having
- 1:15:30Speaker 9: the same negative word or thought repeating. It's not like
- 1:15:33Speaker 9: we're having lots of different thoughts. It's the same thought. Now,
- 1:15:36Speaker 9: you can't control sixty to eighty thousand thoughts, but you
- 1:15:38Speaker 9: can control two thoughts of the day. So just master
- 1:15:41Speaker 9: the first thought of the day and the last thought
- 1:15:42Speaker 9: of the day and make it a thought and a
- 1:15:44Speaker 9: word that you want it to be.
- 1:15:45Speaker 4: I wonder what when that study was done.
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: I wonder was it before social media after because I
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: feel like when social media is probably tripled it.
- 1:15:50Speaker 4: Yeah, I probably read it that. That's that probably I read.
- 1:15:52Speaker 9: In the last three to four years, So I guess
- 1:15:55Speaker 9: while social media is around. But yeah, I mean now
- 1:15:57Speaker 9: it could have totally tripled. But it's interesting because it's
- 1:15:59Speaker 9: the same thought often. Yeah, right, A lot of time
- 1:16:02Speaker 9: we keep saying the same thing. I'm so tired, I'm
- 1:16:04Speaker 9: so tired that talk could life last a year? Or like,
- 1:16:07Speaker 9: oh god, i'm so scared at work, I'm so anxious,
- 1:16:09Speaker 9: that could last a year.
- 1:16:10Speaker 4: So, oh, one more thing, yeah, Man, is there anything
- 1:16:13Speaker 4: Jay Shady hates?
- 1:16:15Speaker 9: Ooh, The answer is I don't because I think hate
- 1:16:18Speaker 9: personally collectively individually doesn't lead to greatness.
- 1:16:23Speaker 4: What about the notebook? You hate the notebook?
- 1:16:27Speaker 9: I don't hate the notebook, but I have heard I
- 1:16:30Speaker 9: have thoughts about the notebook, Charlie Man, I don't hate
- 1:16:32Speaker 9: the number. I find it hilarious as to how many.
- 1:16:35Speaker 9: And I was, like I said, I'm a hopeless romantic.
- 1:16:38Speaker 9: I've been like that my whole life because I grew
- 1:16:40Speaker 9: up watching Hollywood movies thinking that that's how I was
- 1:16:42Speaker 9: meant to fall in love. I was that dumb person
- 1:16:44Speaker 9: who felt for that. And now I've read about something
- 1:16:46Speaker 9: that they call Disney Princess syndrome, where people walk around
- 1:16:50Speaker 9: like feeling like they're going to be saved by their partner,
- 1:16:53Speaker 9: Like you're going to have a night in shining armor,
- 1:16:55Speaker 9: Who's going to come in and rescue you? And I
- 1:16:57Speaker 9: think there's Disney Prince syndrome as well, what we want
- 1:16:59Speaker 9: to go in and save someone and we want to
- 1:17:01Speaker 9: be the be all and end all of everything. So
- 1:17:03Speaker 9: the Notebook just has some really questionable lines. So yeah,
- 1:17:08Speaker 9: I don't hate the Notebook.
- 1:17:09Speaker 5: Well, Ja Shetty, Ladies and gentlemen.
- 1:17:10Speaker 4: Where can they follow you?
- 1:17:11Speaker 6: Jay?
- 1:17:11Speaker 9: To come and check out on the podcast On Purpose.
- 1:17:14Speaker 9: It's where I'm pouring my heart and soul and you know,
- 1:17:16Speaker 9: excited to share so many more amazing, maybe thought provoking,
- 1:17:20Speaker 9: maybe even pushing you slightly conversations to come and join
- 1:17:23Speaker 9: us on Purpose.

- 1:17:33Speaker 9: be back with you and hanging and actually, do you
- 1:17:34Speaker 9: know what, sometimes I love these conversations because I came
- 1:17:37Speaker 9: here not knowing where it was going to go, and

- 1:18:02Speaker 6: Breakfast club bitches, y'alla finish. So y'all done,
