• 6:40
  Speaker 2: What do you want to do?
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Do you want to jump into topics one time, or do you want to start because it's not much space?
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: It's not much space in between topics, so maybe I should get to this man one time.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: When you go in song and watch how you move in a wrong time.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: It's a jamming in the field and to do have a care for them.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: I am man, I am a new born wrong girl.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: But no need time to come back ocean.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Though they drink from no drinker, it could be detrimental.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: After we go Tuesday night, when the men get tight, they don't care who gets back.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: The next thing when you go in song, girl, don't forget love you and don't try Eat your jamming in the sugar.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Try your hands for me, girl, I know you're bigger than your old man.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: A good advice, girl break no bones.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Girl, you might find out what they're not saying.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: But you're not a brave girl.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Baby, why not jump?
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: You push and you run, but why begging you?
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: You're lower over too.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: Listen.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: It's a travesty to be short on time Because some of them I see song like Judith and them, and I'm going to tell you a few of them.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Song like Judith and these things is not no song to be stopped in half.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: My apologies, because one of the greatest lines in Calypso Is Cannaval child dohano.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Father Scranton is a perfect blend of lyrics and melody.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: You could say a lot about the greats in Calypso and when people talking about the favorite Calypso the greatest soka artists of all time, scranton is trying to get push aside.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: Somehow we don't end up in the top five.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: I hear people talk more.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Scranton is their favorite and some of the younger people too.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Scranton get to be known as a soka parang man, and I can't even say younger maybe our generation, you know what I mean.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Sadly, they have to know him as a soka parang man, which is and he would have stopped putting out soka parang hits.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, when you think about it 10, 20 years ago.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: You're talking about it Because he ain't really putting out a whole lot every year now.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: But the man cataloguing soka parang stands on its own.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: But today I want to take a dive into the man cataloguing soka, because he's spanned a few eras, if I'm not mistaken, from the late 70s, early 80s, coming up the road and all the year 2000 and things.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Scranton still had hits.
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: They only have a few soka artists who would have been able to accomplish that over the lifetime and let me not forget that.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: That is people.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: You're talking about the elite.
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: You're talking about Sparrow, calypso Rose, marshall Bantano, iowa George.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: These are the people who would have started Decade after decade, still come with big songs and big hits.
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: So you're jumping to a few.
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: They gotta get surprised.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: They know how this is going.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: They can't play a whole song.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: I know how much whole song we could fit in, but we could try to fit in.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: What I have here is a lot of spillage.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: I have a lot of spillage on the docket.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: You only want to deal with the spillage first Because somehow, even though I have a very big screen in front of me With a lot of notes saying what to talk about, saying Cory, don't forget to talk about this, literally written right in front of it, somehow I forget to talk about things.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: So let me deal with the spillage first.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I want to salute and congratulate and thank the Hunters Association of Trinidad and Tobago.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: We all saw the story last week where A mother of a child who I think the child was on his spectrum, so she's not verbal and she got lost.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: She went by her grandparents and she got lost in any Hunters Association, as they always do have volunteered to come out again and look for the child and thank God the child was returned safely to her mother, safely to her parents, safely to her home.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: And when you see how overwhelmed that mother was with getting back her child I mean God forbid anything like that was happening.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Anybody who have children, I mean any human, could understand what that mother went through, related to see it.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: And in getting back her child you could see the gratitude she had for the Hunters Association.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: And you know what was nice about that little video Sorry, I missed it last week.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: I'm a little old now and I couldn't even find back the video, so maybe include it in the YouTube.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: But one of the things about that video I find was pure Was how proud the gentleman in the Hunters Association was.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Their men were so proud and happy To just be able to be a contributor to making the place a positive place, to doing something for somebody you know and they've done that so many times and they've been a spare thought for their mental well-being Because we had to remember the country we were living in and how bad it could get.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: You know, judith is such a powerful song.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: When you listen to Judith, no People who party in that era Judith Might tell you how that song used to mash up fit.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: People who only knew Judith at her back in time song Could tell you how it is feel when you hear it in her fit, that movement song.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: When you hear Gwani, listen to Judith properly, the man talking about any parent who sent in their child out there.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: You know you watch.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: I have some little cousins right.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: One of them is listening to this podcast, little girl, little child by the name of Sadie Shepard and Nika Shepard, right, and I remember, see, that's the first exposure I have to little babies.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: You know, when you see our data is coming in, people's big woman when you gonna tell them, the most you could do now is hope that All the advice you give them, all the guidance you give them Because say these are good youth.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: You know, I mean she's a good person.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: You know you could see that when they're growing up.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: But, as with any youth, you're gonna grow up and you're gonna take chances and you're gonna go out and lie man.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: As safe as you might be, as respectful as you might be, stuff happens, incidences happen, all kinds of things trendad, but people disappear and whole big people disappear.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: And so when you are the senior child out there, enjoy the carnival, enjoy the experiences.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: You can't cook them up inside the reatory.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: They live right.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: They want to travel, they want to go to school, they want to go abroad.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Any parent could relate to Judith as a song when they sit down and they talk to the children To say, boy, listen when your thing be safe, make sure if you're driving don't drink, make sure you secure your car keys, watch your surroundings Before you go back to the car.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: When they stick together, any parent would give children them advice back in the day.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: So when you look at the genius behind point together as song, well, judith is a hell of a serious song that we fett and we lie in many partied.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: I don't think that's an easy thing to accomplish, right?
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: But back to the Hunters Association.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: Remember the society we live in and remember what the headlines usually read.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: I see Eula Christopher this week she done she not talking about.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: First she say she go and solve crime in her boat.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: She say give me about 15, 20 minutes, I will wrap up this whole murder situation.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Then she say she A-Class right now.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I say A-Class performer, right now we have it under control On a scale of 1 to 10, how we doing 10.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: I love the confidence.
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: And she reach the point now where she not taking any more questions From the media about crime.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: The Kari Komsymposium Wrapped up last week and she say no, no, no, don't ask me nothing about crime.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: Give me my next 15 minutes.
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: I think is basically what she saying.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: She hunkered down, she working hard, but remember that the Hunters Association would be looking for people and most of the times they go on looking for people Is bodies.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: Defining that Kabi is easy thing.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: That is a lot of strain that we might be paying attention to enough as a society.
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying and when I saw the pride and the joy in their face that they find this child and they were able to return the child to the murder, I wish I could see the face when they see the child and they realize the child was alive, because one of the Hunters said that they saw her across a river.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: But the child was the city body lying down.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: And you know, in that moment you must be feeling like, oh god, well, you're happy that you find the body.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: But it's another one of them situations when you had to come and bring bad news to people and when they find the child, the child was sleeping.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: That's to show how much stress that child was going through.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: But that joy that they feel, I hope that they find more joy like that.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: I don't want no more children to go missing or no more bodies to be disappearing and them kind of things in the utopian state.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: But anyway, it's now when the police commissioner takes over the way.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: It is now when the police commissioner is taking no question, I hear from my minister of national security in a while, team Asdo, we have more stories like this.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: So I'm just grateful for the Hunters Association and their involvement and they're volunteering to do this because, team Asdo, in this situation they find in more people than the police find in.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: So I just want to take a quick minute to salute them, right.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: I also want to salute the PNM leftovers, right, and I want to say a little bit of a spillage from the last episode, because I'm not a PNM candidate.

  Speaker 2: Anyway, anyway, let me get into serious matters now.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: Let me get into this week's business, this week's business.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: What we starting this week?
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: I was going to talk more woman and think I really want to talk about Kiki Parma and thing For those of you who might have been on that rock, kiki Parma is a well, she's a star, she's an actress, she's singing things.
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: She was a Disney star, right, and she a big woman.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: No, she been around.
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: She is here, is here active on Instagram and them things are saying she's active.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: I can't remember much show she acting.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: I think she acting as Pelin beating with Denzil Washington.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: That right or it wrong.
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: She's a kind of show.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: She's what you call a class actor, like a less person.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Let me see one movie.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: She was it, but either way, she turned from a little girl to a big woman now, just like Graves Tinto, and recently she come out and say she had a baby.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Now, if you, if you are a Maco like me and you up to date with the thing you never know Kiki Parma.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: No man, she never see her.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: There's too much a man seen and them kind of thing.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: She come out here, baby.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: My name is Darius Darius Dalton.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: He is also.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: He's a, he's active too, but he not really on Kiki level.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: I could say that he need Kiki level in terms of a claim and fame right and notoriety.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: So over the last week Kiki Parma went to Oshawa Oshawa residency in Vegas.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: So basically, with those residencies they perform in the same show multiple times a week usually, or with somebody as big as I sure, it might be just one show per weekend.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: It seemed to be one of the hottest tickets in the States now because I saw this come up on Jobin podcast the other day, where Jobin and his girlfriend was in the front row.
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: And Oshawa come, he's a he goes, my baby, you know and he go wrong in the crowd now and he finds some people who looking like babies and he hold everything and you know, make it a party show, right?
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: I want to say that when I was a young fella in my 20s, what do you used to call men like Oshawa name is vicious man.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Oshawa is a vicious man.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: This is not a nice thing Oshawa is doing, because every minute he news now it is right because it went viral when he went by Jobin, he asked Jobin very respectfully, kind of game a signal, and say can I?
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: And then he hold the lady hand, she stand up, they do a rock and a dance and then he say there goes his baby and play like respectful and then walk up.
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: But Oshawa is a vicious man.
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: This is not the kind of games he playing.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: And they can play these kind of games in this internet era.
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Right, I don't like it because it easy put yourself in them position.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Right, pretend to be a list star for a while and you go on out with your woman plenty ego involved in them thing.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: Right, you sit down to take any show.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Oshawa come and ask you Query, kind of with the Oshawa Raman style.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: If I say no, I is a punk, you understand.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Imagine you say, nah, brother, no, I is a punk.
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: And I see some people do that with Salt Bay.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: They go on by Salt Bay and Salt Bay want to sprinkle salt in the woman more.
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: They say they intolerate in that, which I never understood, because to me, if you go by Salt Bay and know that I is part of the show, you want to put the meat in the woman.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: So I think you don't know what the Oshawa show is about and you do it what you do as a man.
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: You ask me right, this me.
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: I might be a punk and true, but I go kind of how to say well, go ahead right, go through Another smile and pretend like, remember, oshawa is respectful and the woman is respectful.
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: Oshawa, hold her hand.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: She thinks she do a rock and a dance.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: She is a smart woman too, because even though Oshawa is doing the thing, she stay very focused on Joe.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: So any little woman who, as a woman who is listening here, following these situations, maintain eye contact.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: Kiki Parma, on the other hand, did not go with Darius right and is a few is plenty issues behind this thing.
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: He had gone without Darius, so it looked like a girls line.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Kiki Parma have won a beach, a beach wear with a shawl.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: It's your girl, let's go.
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: All the other girls look good Because she have won a beach wear with a shawl.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: That way it's called a shawl and it's see, true, you know what I mean.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: Like you will see plenty of that in Boat ride and Trinidad, the over 40 Boat ride.
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: You see, when you go, scorch on them.
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: You can see scorch on the dance over the weekend when you're in your 20s and think it's just where the undergarments is, just where bikini, thunkini, wherever.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: But when you're in your 30s and think it's a starter, rapper shawl.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: But Kiki Parma are getting new modern or Lachia shawl.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: But the woman look very good.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: So my first question to the men who listen to this Can you not go in?
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: Can your woman, your wife, your girlfriend you want you to claim publicly because we know man different man, have a different attitude with woman, who is the wife versus woman, who is the girl from long time versus in Trinidad, and say your personal girl versus a girl you're checking versus a girl you're dealing with.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: We have different attitudes towards all these things.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: So a woman you're dealing with might be able to dress and go anywhere she wants.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: You have no problem with that.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: You like that.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: But your wife, you might have a problem with your trend modern them.
• 28:02
  Speaker 2: You trend modern them.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: You might not like if you trend modern them dressing.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: So right, my question to you is your personal.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: You want your claim.
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: You want your claim publicly, because the one who you claim publicly is you want who, number one, are the most ammunition to hurt you in your private personal life.
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: Because them is a hot for one.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: The one you claim publicly that is the hot belly and can eat and you drive it and you forget where you're going and you're talking and you're talking about you're going to work in a meeting.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Somebody say something about you know what we'll do is, we'll do our upgraded.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: You take and you start to remember the hall is a double upgraded on the house and the back room and you want to cry on your inside.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: That is the one you want to your claim and the one you claim publicly is also the one who have the greatest potential, not just to hurt you but to embarrass you, because you just feel embarrassed.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Man, just take your personal girl and your wife and thing as an extension of the self.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: I want to tell you this too you see friend groups of men.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: Your skin has to be thick.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't different in your 40s now, but when you're going through it in your 20s and things, why is Kiki Palmer age, when you're going through it from all the way from your teenage years up to maybe mid 30s or even late 30s, right?
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: You have to be able to take talk, because when you claim that woman and man says she gone out without you and cheeks is in his son, you know, I mean son, cheeks man, ask me a question and they'll say oh boy, oh boy, sold your boy Elson and then them kind of thing because you don't want to done.
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: You know much of friend group.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: I like it and man like her in a lot of many faces and these fellas gain your talk when the men don't get it.
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: Okay, don't like the woman again, and woman where you was in love with woman where you in love, you don't like she again.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: I don't have no more feelings towards you at this moment in time.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: So I want to know how all you feel with you.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: I want to use words like let them thing because Kiki Palmer, 29 years right, she's 29 years old, I'm pretty young.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Would you be comfortable, let me put it like that.
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: I'll let you put me no problems with woman by using words like let them kind of thing, though, but would you be comfortable if your woman going out like that when you not there, or is it different when you there versus when you not there go?
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: And some more questions to you know, because, coincidentally, the woman who I claim for the most potential to hurt me, what the most potential to embarrass me?
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: I see she leave, woman, kiki Palmer thing.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Already I lie down here watching TV.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: I see she rapper.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: I mean it was a dress, a shawl, but whatever it was, it was see through, and chicks is in the rain, dark chicks is in the rain is in the rain, and son and the ring and the element no shelter.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: You understand what I mean and it's a little bit.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: Me feel no way.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: Me feel no way.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I went through too much already.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: I don't see too much.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: I don't jade it already.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: I mean my philosophy too is that that you can stop nobody from doing nothing that they want to do.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: People can do what they want to do at the end of the day, and me a hot enough my head over.
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: What you choose to do when you're gold, I also think, means to see how long long we together, long right together.
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: Long we married short, but we together long right.
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: You will call the matzda.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: So I don't trust that she.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: She ain't going bar small dancing and I also feel like if she do something to embarrass me, I could, we will address it cordially when she reach home and we go talk about it and she, reasonably enough, she will.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: She could you ever get back and forth?
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: But when you any have anybody you know, I mean no much, my get a little back and forth but we go forget that out.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: So me and getting a horrors if she leave home.
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: So but I saw online that plenty men had a problem with where she dress and leave home.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: Now I want to put this in cultural context because as trainees, we are accustomed to a certain thing.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: We are accustomed to kind of a Darius is 27 but we are accustomed to kind of a.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: We are accustomed to see a woman leave home while all women see me accustomed leave home, while all women leave home and go bare back with wine and strange woman and fed many, many couples married, married, married wife and married husband, this go fed and the husband jam something and a man jam the wife and everybody.
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: We, culturally we might be a little more.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: I want to say slacker, but I will say, accepting of these types of things, fast forward past the dress, right, she done gone.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: When usher come to do the thing he keep on, oh yeah, she look excited, she look happy, she look like, she look like a fan.
• 32:49
  Speaker 2: Right, she look like a fan of usher.
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: I suppose if you go on, you pay for them tickets up front, they are fan.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: You know what the experience is to say, maybe hoping for that.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: So when he choose you, he excited about it, and she do a little twirl and spin wrong and show him the little elements.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: And you know, I mean that you hold him and usher watch, don't?
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Usher is a vicious man, as I see somebody say online.
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: Usher could easily say we are the single ladies, women, single ladies, and do that with single people.
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: Usher, no, kicky Palmer, usher would no, kicky Palmer just had a baby.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: She know he have a man.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: You know the man is not not top tier.
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: If he keep him, I say Alice, the man is about to see the different areas here, deal it.
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: He not there.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: You come on your so your cause, try for the household now because he.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: I let me tell you as a man, right, let me tell you as a man, as a youth, 27 years old, something for me I was not fully formed in my language, like, like, like not, not not my English language, you know, in my getting what is in my brain or my emotional feelings to external language, I couldn't say how I feel about things.
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: It was hard to do so I used to lash out in different kind of ways and I mean what I see this boy tweet, this man saying, basically, respect yourself as a mother.
• 34:11
  Speaker 2: Now I'll say this right, as a older man, as a middle age man, as a man who had a trim before I record because the roof blow off and is all hell break loose, and a man who I want hair to grow on my head and a dog run everywhere.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: I don't want to hear to grow it.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Great, they are seeing great all over.
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Right, been through a few things.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: I will say number one, as you try to have private conversations, your wife done gone out.
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: I know that feeling.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Right, I understand that feeling.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah, they might need to trust a woman only going through I've only going through she gone out, so you're uneasy.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: You're uneasy.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: Sometimes you have to play man and say, well, alright, here you go.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: You had a play man.
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: You want to say don't go, nowhere, you cannot leave.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: But you can't say that, especially in this era, in we time we might still sit and go away, but you can't say that.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: And let me tell you something you don't try that, you know, because it's nice when you tell them they can go and they get up and they go.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: I went through that already.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: I went through.
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: I see, you know, woman, at time, man, you know, man, had a little problems.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: We always I mean everybody a problem.
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: But I was on the receiving end of some what you would call but right, you know, I mean, and I know about it, we don't discuss it, we working through the but, we in the but situation.
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: The horn is still fresh and let me tell you something now that I hold on the standard while the thing fresh and we were getting out and everybody sorry, and everybody trying to you, I have been in some feelings and she have been some feelings for the man because, listen, your car, just say if you would like somebody to the point where they get together and your man find out them thing, though it's an off switch that just say alright, my man find out, we done.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: Them had to do that breakup too.
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: If I wish I had done the standard when I was young.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: So them was he still communicating.
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: I trying to make sure she can make.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: I in heavy surveillance mode right now, I in GPS surveillance movie.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: When you talk to the man, we as if they're doing something right.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: But I must even damage that time man.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: So in the midst of that, this girl come and tell me she going, I horn, a man, party I can't remember the name of the party was unfaithful.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: Only my man faithful in this life get to go through all kind of thing in this life.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: In this life is to enjoy this life, is to laugh and talk and enjoy yourself.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: You know, I mean in the midst of this thing, she tell me she and she girls going unfaithful boy, I can't sleep.
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: I tried.
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: I tell her no, she can't go.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: I said no, but listen, I want to unlock my door, say I can't come out, you can't go.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: This boy, that girl, but so that I'm gonna think I've vexed and you know what we vexed, vexed and only cousin Kyra, but I call she all kind of hope.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: You know that the default, and you know you think, is I know children but I could tell you that if we had a child I might do just what that you see and say as a mother, you can respect face as a mother, because part of what you want to do is when you're, when you're, when you care language it right and you're hurting.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: As a young man, I can't talk for woman, right, as a young man, part of what you want to do when they hurt in here, so it's to hurt them back.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: And when you're saying things about yourself, the way you're feeling, and she's still disregarding that you're trump kid.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: No, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know I mean you're trump kid is his mother.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Respect yourself.
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: But, boy, listen, you should never do.
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: Boy, don't tell no woman that remember that I still a child.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: I still a child mother.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: It don't, it is not worth telling a woman that under I can't see what circumstances have unless she's really a bad mother and a treachery child and a treachery development of the child we household, even when you say that at that point you had to figure out how to say that with some love and some counseling and them thing.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: You're also yet better when a woman make a child.
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: Don't tell them nothing for about two years, don't it's a what that fight?
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: Don't tell them about two years.
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: You just keep quiet if they, if you're in like certain things, you step up and try to do the things if you feel you want to do in it.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Talk to the child better.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: Don't talk to me, mother, for about two years because it's have a period of a lack of sleep and irrationality that they might not admit to until year four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, right, but you're good to think about it when you're in these things.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: You're gonna live to see that.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: I say mom, I tell you we're going on faithful, it's fight, we don't want to leave.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: You know lady house and she gone still.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: And boy, listen, man, she good up to today.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: She's only cool, everybody good eyes, we just happy to see people doing good.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: So you will live, pass all them thing and everybody will be fine.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: But this man went on tweet out as a mother, you'll bottom outside, as I'm just doing it in the Indian version.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: Your mother, you're going to bottom outside and respect their self.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: And so, of course, in this era, the Twitter, people went wild because woman bodies can't be policed, are trying to, are trying to languages to get these new era.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: People were right, don't police woman what is called it dressing the wardrobe where it is.
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: Do police woman and the men and them now saying they're going to embarrass me and your this and you know, be here if you had all that kind of thing.
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: And I think somewhere along the line, people forget the way algorithms work.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: Right, the way algorithm work is.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: It is likely to show you two things.
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: It is likely to show you more things that support your point of view.
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: So if you say only woman, wicked or respected man and just leave the man home, and girls, girls, girls, always like man is a few, if does your stance and that's the way you feel, you are going to see a lot more tweets, instagram posts, threads, all age and threads.
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: Follow my trezana, I know, is my name on threads, but final, I carry them, but you're gonna see more of that.
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: And then you also going to see some people who are against your idea, but you are going to see the most radical versions of the people who are against your idea saying that this is the problem.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Or ladies, like woman, get too much of freedom.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: Them woman should be home seeing mother children.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: That shouldn't go nowhere, they shouldn't go on a short ticket and then kind of thing woman should be enslaved.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: You're gonna see the most extreme versions of those things.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: I'm not coming here when I call you, you're always trying to be in the sauce.
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: Bye, yeah, you're gonna see the worst version of the people who are against you.
• 40:30
  Speaker 2: So what it does is it gets you incensed and make you even more entrenched in your position.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: But people seem to forget that because all the women who was against the areas for policing women and this is the kind of thing that they had a stand up for as women and this is why they're independent and we don't want no man and all of them see more and more opinions like that.
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: And they also see the most drastic men who say when it is a butoo for these women, if you say hire, butoo, they will never be doing these kind of things.
• 41:00
  Speaker 2: You just see the most drastic version.
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: So there's no comment again or no common wrong and these issues.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: People are upset.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: But I want to know how people feel If the woman come and tell me she's going unfaithful.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: No, if she's dressed and she's going to usher, I want to bring it back in our cultural context to her because for me personally, when I see what Kiki Palmer do with usher, that come like nothing to me.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: I don't really care.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know if Stacy goes out and do that with her friends, I don't know that.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: That bothered me in a way.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: The part that bothered me the most is when man come to give me a small talk in my little friends group about, boy, you let a woman go up and then I will start to get lancy, but with them, not so much with who.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: But you know, some of the dem ansiness overflow home when I go online.
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: I want to play golf, I play football and take on man games.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: I talk there under the shed.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: After football I drink two beers.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: I want to bring some of that vexation home, but I don't get over that fast because I ain't look bad.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: But I want to put it in our cultural context because when our artists call up birds on stage, edo go.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: So Marshall Kess, imagine Kess call up your wife on stage and she say why have you heard your mango sweet?
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: So and she started mango sweet.
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: So you might feel away.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: You might feel away.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: You might feel away.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: It's like I was talking to Stacy about this and she was reminding me about Chance the Rapper.
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: He went through a whole scene the other day because he went Bahamas, kind of all I think it was, and he wind up on some woman and think about Chance, like to play Pius.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: He's a gospel man or whatsoever.
• 42:40
  Speaker 2: He is the best married man.
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: You know this.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: Best married man when there's the best married man it have.
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: When they broke loose, the whole world is waiting for this to see that.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: So he wind up on some woman, he do some little slap bump on them.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: Now again, if Stacy go and play, I play Mass with you.
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: Must they see him play no Mass with you?
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: She's such a play on the lost tribe next year I feel I retire next year while you're on this note, I'm sure that I'd be stamina and I know that I enjoy Mass enough to not stay home next year.
• 43:05
  Speaker 2: But when she go and play, she Mass me a studying.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: Was she winding on or was she doing when she called Come home safe.
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: That's my one philosophy Reach home safe.
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: Don't let nothing stay out there, don't let nothing stay in the street.
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: Anything I'm saying, call me, but I don't think I would like to see her videos.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: Stacy, go and play Mass cheer on the baddest squad and slap him up.
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: Other pointers are wife, as a woman with no religion, I find you should just say hey, hey, hey, hey, cool it, relax yourself, buss your kite.
• 43:34
  Speaker 2: I like to see women are with blank man too.
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: Do you know?
• 43:38
  Speaker 2: Do you know she's just mental?
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's, but I'm not going to take her wine, but I like to see that blank man too.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: Easy yourself, easy yourself, easy yourself.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: Everybody have a different take on that.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: But in our cultural context, your wife Marshell call your wife on stage.
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: Marshell is them as vicious men, disrespectful, they don't care what they do, woman and say I don't know that, I can handle that.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know if when we reach home, it could be the same context.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: So maybe the way I see him kicky, parm or might be just cultural for me, while Daria's seen that as a huge disrespect.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean, like how I would see Marshell if Marshell left you up and threw you down on the ground, or you going up and say to Trinidad killer he flip and not Trinidad killer.
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: What's the next one name, mr Killer?
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: He flip and he whine and he duck on the yes, or he throw you up, and I don't like that.
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: Don't throw.
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: I find it has some wrong rules.
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: Don't let neither your two foot leave the ground For no reason.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: We pop up no one foot.
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: Let me keep it to, let me stay grounded.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: You know what I say?
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: It's like a household to come back to.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: So this boy lose the fight when he make that kind of tweet because instead of saying I don't like how you move, or having a private conversation and private conversation had to be oh, they're embarrassed at me.
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: I don't like that.
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: I don't like that.
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: I feel in that kind of way.
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: I feel in when you do things like that, you're hurting me.
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: I feel like if you don't value me in value my opinion, but in studying how I will feel about you and our show linemen and the situation, stay back to play speed.
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: I don't like that.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: I don't like that.
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: I think the deeper problem here too, is that you see Even man and woman not equally what they say.
• 45:15
  Speaker 2: You're right, it's be a problem and I want to say let me just I can only talk from perspective of my man.
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: I don't say when you was a man and your woman in our next league, then you take a special kind of man to handle.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: That.
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: You know, because in this day and age where everything fluid, gender fluid, relationship roles, fluid parental roles, fluid household roles anybody could be anything apparently in this era, right, but me, and grew up in that era.
• 45:53
  Speaker 2: I didn't grow up in that time and you see, my household is my responsibility.
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: That is my place to run.
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: I is a king.
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: I run in here, nobody else, nobody care.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: I run in here, nobody else, nobody care Me.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: According to Abu Bakar, I have a bucket here and at that time you're running your house or you're running your wrong here house.
• 46:16
  Speaker 2: You see me.
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: I used to run my house.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: I don't like.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: I mean when nobody else run my place, I go decide what is happening here.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: Now I'm not saying that to say that I'm running our oppressive regime because I care about my house, not my wife.
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: There are plenty shoes.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: Do that, I care, do.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: And the less long, the less she tell you, the less is forever.
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: But at the end of the day.
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: I had to be responsible for what is happening here because they can say what they want about gender roles and all that kind of thing.
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: You see me, if tomorrow that door kick in bang in this country we live in the Hunters Association and you're wrong to say we are locking my wife and my child somewhere in our room and I'm going to defend the palace, you see me, I here to protect and to provide.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: I believe in all them kind of roles.
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: Now, I'm not saying anybody else have to believe in them kind of roles, but I could say that if I was with somebody and they don't really see that as the role and they see it as the woman must be the one to defend the house and I must lock up in the bedroom with a child and then go go and fight bandit.
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: Or I must stay home all day and then go earn, and you know what I mean.
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: They didn't get money so I can.
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: I can walk and sweep and clean and all them kind of thing.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: I don't think we don't make it.
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I don't think that's enough for me.
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: I would not be feeling good about myself in that relationship.
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: And if I learn one thing about the Catholic marriage, retreat, counseling, whatever they call it.
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: One thing I learned about that is what they were saying is picture a marriage like a triangle, right, and this is your wife and this is your husband, and at the top of the triangle is God.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: You call God wherever you want, right, the universe, whatever new version, or they have a God, and what their men say is work on yourself.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: Ha ha, ha ha ha.
• 48:04
  Speaker 2: Work on yourself getting closer to God, right, and we will slide your way up the triangle.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: And by both, all you're working on that, all you will come together.
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: And that is one of the greatest thing I ever hear.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: That changed my perspective plenty, because you cannot work on nobody else.
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: I can't tell you what to say.
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: She's an adult, she's a big woman.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: I have to leave it to her to do what she wants and make all the choices in her life, and she can tell me what to do and make all the choices in my life.
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: So if I in a household where you telling me you in charge of what happened you go, deal with all these situations, then I might not be comfortable, I might not like myself and in that relationship I might not be the best version of myself to work towards God.
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: So I go on.
• 48:46
  Speaker 2: Ha ha, ha ha.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: One fine one of these modern day men who could deal with that kind of situation.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: So I feel like this is one of the issues Kiki Parma and I'm going through and you know, to be honest with you, I'm not sure if this is a very Trinidadian issue, if this is a Yankee and them problem, because to me, the Yankees and them have a lot of these things going on with women and the way the women feel about the world and the thing and the independent, and they don't.
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: Although I see a video on MYLB On MYLB, should I venture to play this video?
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: It's bad, you know, but I think MYLB is blood cousin.
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: Right, mylb is blood cousin.
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: So let me see if I can play it in accordance to the whole baddest song.
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: You could just pretend that never happened, right.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: But it's a young girl, a young good looking girl, a young good looking girl, but like she fed up all their man here what this girl had to say.
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: I think I can never have a man out any hot son of a friend who made me a friend and they doing this.
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: I know that Right, I'm sure.
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: You hear it?
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: All their man had a hot on their face.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: And I say so.
• 49:53
  Speaker 3: You hear it, man no man.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: None, all their man not pay my bills already.
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: All their man good for.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: All right, you can play that part right, but she was playing pressure in her tire, right.
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: No, the way I see this girl talking, I say, well, like she re-building her car from scratch, the way she talking here, it had to be that after she build up the car from scratch, she put a pressure in her tires the last step in building the car.
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: Because she talking like playing pressure in her tires, what I mean, come on.
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: So she vexed because she had to be getting up.
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: According to her, she now done bed and she need hot sun to in pressure in her tire.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: And she vexed because she said this is she can, oh man, because if she have a man she can be out here doing this and the man done the bill she builds and man can do nothing for she and things.
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: So it have some of the down here, but I don't feel I mean certainly not in her era Not a whole lot of it.
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: At least I'm going to play that way and not publicly.
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: Either them things, them conversations might be happening privately, or maybe I'm not spending enough time on TikTok and them things.
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: But Kiki Parma, let me make the assumption that she has well, she have a more successful career than them.
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: Let me assume that she making more money than them, so she might be running the household and part of the issue with you could be that woman making more money than you.
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: There's a conversation people doesn't like to have in on.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: Everybody say yes until it's time to deal with that.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: Right, Because when and I'm talking about you making her 10,000 and your wife making 12, five I'm talking about your salary is 10,000 and your wife making $85,000 a month and 120 post bonuses and all that kind of stuff, you know what I mean.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about them kind of price difference.
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: Because that putting all your into different worlds.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: Right, Because with a $10,000 job, your network is a different network than somebody who making a $120,000,.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: I want to add to that the kind of man who coming wrong when your wife making 120.
• 51:55
  Speaker 2: Can you handle it?
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: Can you handle it?
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: I've been through these things.
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: Advance it beyond just the money.
• 52:03
  Speaker 2: You see the fame and the recognition.
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: That is another thing.
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: Can you handle it when you sit down with your woman and only talk and you have any little denouncing and you see the phone ring Brian Charles, Lara, Marsha, Jesus Montano.
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: I've been through these things.
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: Can you handle it?
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: How are you going to deal with that?
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: Can you still be the man that you feel they should be in your home?
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: Can you still protect the household when you see your phone ring and you see Bohindra Tiwari, David Muhammad?
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: I've been through these things.
• 52:37
  Speaker 2: What do you mean from Howard Lee, President of Howard name?
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: Again, I've been through these things.
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: I've been through these things.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: When I see them kind of names ringing on the phone Because you making 10, your wife making 120, them fellows making millions, I'm not saying that a woman automatically going to go with somebody more famous or something.
• 53:00
  Speaker 2: If you're with you she'll love you.
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: But when Brian called and she said Hi, Brian, and I say wait, no, you don't say Brian Lara, you just say Brian, these are the conversations, how you having them conversations.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: And when you start to have them conversations out in your mind now, because you're hearing how simple your song is when you're having them conversations out loud, Can you handle it?
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: Because these are the kind of things that come with that kind of territory and I feel that what Darius was going through.
• 53:34
  Speaker 2: So when Darius say Hi Ray, when Kiki Maker called.
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: She said Ray, I want about five tickets to me and my girls.
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: And Darius said Ray, Ray, Charles, Ray, Charles, come back.
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: When I Ray Charles show, I'll look at Kiki Maker.
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: And she said no, Dami, that's Usher.
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: He said wait a minute.
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: He said so, you, you, you, it's called Usher Ray.
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: He's called Usher Ray.
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: You don't have to feel that way.
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: Already it bubbling up on the inside, it bubbling up, and then when they see what she have on, it's not a bubble up more, but you can't what you're going to say.
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: What you're going to say, because it's very likely that if you was in the same situation on Kiki Palmer, go down and see Ray.
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: But you are not Darius, whatever your name be, but use Denzel, Darius Washington, Were you up there?
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: You know Ray too.
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: It's a different kind of conversation, Because when she say, hi, Ray, I want to get four tickets or something he's like, no, I don't want to call Usher, no, I go sell to her.
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: Don't know me, me and Usher.
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: Good, I'll call Quincy Jones.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: Quincy Jones here.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: What to do?
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: Book, all the whole of Vegas, book, all the whole of thing.
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: Me and my wife were private show.
• 54:37
  Speaker 2: Tell Us your Thing.
• 54:38
  Speaker 2: Tell Us your Thing we're coming through and it's a different kind of respect.
• 54:43
  Speaker 2: So it's the same scenario, the woman not doing I don't care what Kiki Palmer do, Right, I talk more than men.
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: The man in that situation Could look at that situation different.
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: If you're equally yoked versus if you're very unequal, versus if you're over equal, If you're over equal, it's a different conversation and a different ball game and a different world, you understand.
• 55:06
  Speaker 2: Let me talk about the woman for a while.
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: Let me go back to Joe Button, right, Part of the issue is this Joe Button's wife do a nice little thing and she say Hi, Usher, and she lock eyes with her man and everybody's smiling Little bit.
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: Again, she hold Johan too.
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: So she make sure and she hold Johan tight.
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: She make it look like you holding Johan, but Usher holding Johan, You're holding back.
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: You're rubbing back on her neck and looking down.
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: You know I like Kiki, the hot man heart, right?
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, I always say it's embarrassing man.
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: He ride there with you.
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: That will not go well, right, I could pretty safely assume with Johan and his wife that he over-yoked, right, he over-yoked.
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: I don't know the woman personally, but she's no celebrity, she's no angel, but it's a man like a little shuck, a man like a bat, and all that too.
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: So he over-yoked.
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: So I'll say this about the woman right, when a woman in a situation where she very under-yoked, she have a different level of appreciation and understanding of that situation.
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: Because when you're a holer man who over-yoked that man have a lot of options, A lot of the options you would probably know about before from conversations, from going out to team.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: You see how they interact and you see kind, some of the people who willing to get his man in number game attention.
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: So imagine you with a man now and everywhere you go it's hi, Joh, hi.
• 56:30
  Speaker 2: You seeing the best of the best, you see the best of the best coming up hi, Joh, hi, hi.
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: And they have an extra hole and when they're down hole and they say hi, and they see you and they say hi, right, hi, Damn, I'm the mirror.
• 56:41
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 56:42
  Speaker 2: I tell you right, see, relax, no, you're not listening, you're recording.
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, when I went to the place already, man, come and see, I haven't had dinner with that boy that time, A very, very popular son of a famous politician.
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: A man comes up to the table and says hi, how are you?
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: She lights up like hi, how are you?
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: And big hugs and she says this Corey, this is my boyfriend.
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: And I'm a nuzzo, all right, and went back to here.
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: I'm going to see a good friend again, I'm going to train him, but here you go on on the bar, you have the best of the best or superstars.
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: He going out and says, come on, sweetie, city girls come.
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: And then they say, all right, cool, because he's nobody.
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: I mean again, she have a different level of I try not to use the word respect, but appreciation for that situation and what it is and the fact that he didn't somebody who is what Kevin Samuel's going to call a high value man or a star.
• 57:50
  Speaker 2: You see them superstarting.
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: I think that's a different ball game, right?
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: So your level of tolerance for some of them might be higher, but you also don't want to lose that situation, so you're not taking certain chances.
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: But I will say that when the woman over-yoked, I don't know that she considering them same thing, I mean not saying that all women.
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: So because there's some women who they could make, how much of a money they could have, how much of a fame, they're going to remain very respectful of the situation.
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: They will take them, man, husband, boyfriend, thought, into consideration and make sure that he OK and not do certain things at all, just from a moral standpoint, that's, certain things that they're not going to do.
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: No man can be able to lift up them leg and do all them kind of thing.
• 58:32
  Speaker 2: If you put it in our culture, they're not going to allow it.
• 58:34
  Speaker 2: They're not on that.
• 58:35
  Speaker 2: But if you find one who over-yoked and dies your portion, you have a little rough road as a man.
• 58:43
  Speaker 2: So I feel it for Darius.
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: Darius don't start bad when he make that tweet.
• 58:46
  Speaker 2: That tweet was ridiculous.
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: Don't be telling no more about their mother and thing.
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: Not if you want to have a happy household that continues.
• 58:51
  Speaker 2: So last thing I see was both of them on follow one another on Twitter and them kind of thing on wherever Treads.
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: Everybody follow one on, follow one another and I hope in to see eventually what becomes of their relationship.
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: I hope they make it up.
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: I mean they have a child to see, but also they will be quarreling on them kind of thing.
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: But it's not a, it's a looking good and in the local context, you know what reminds me, I think we're the man or woman right, and woman might be better at this than men.
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: Just historically, capital is man, or that man put himself in a position where we earn more than woman for a long time, right.
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: So woman might be accustomed to this position a little more than men and men might be having some difficulty adjusting to this Because we now live in a world where it's easier to find a woman who over-yoked you know what I mean.
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: You find a lot of women who making good money.
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: They're high up in businesses.
• 59:44
  Speaker 2: A woman is a boss, you know what I mean.
• 59:46
  Speaker 2: I teach so many.
• 59:47
  Speaker 2: I lecturing for 10 years now Was it 12 years now?
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: And every single class I had, at both masters, bachelor's, associate degree level, all the classes I ever lecture, had more women than men.
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: So it stands to reason that at some point women going to take over the governance or corporations.
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 2: They'll take over politics.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: They, you know anything that higher education will lead you to more achievement.
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: They were likely to take over those fields and it happened already.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: So women might be more accustomed to having a man who I don't want to just say earning more, but more famous, have title, have position of societal pull of power and so on, and men might be no starting to get accustomed to dealing with women of power and them kind of thing, because you deal with Shampoo, kujo and them go out there and start to make, oh I'm on Saturday Saturday, saturday Saturday.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: And then they put them right through and you're going into space now when nobody recognizes you and everybody recognizes them and you have your little manly ego to deal with now, you had to take a backseat right through, open the door for you.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 2: He had some problems because when I opened the door for a woman, it might be looking like chivalry.
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 2: When you open the door for one of them over you come on, it starts to look.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 2: You start to feel now like wait, I'm working for you, I'm opening the door.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: It's a big difference.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 2: But when I look at the entrepreneurial thing or the superstar world, they have some concessions and some things I think you just have to accept.
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: So if I decide I deal with Kiki Parma Kiki Parma clearly over-yoked, right, she over-yoking me and she going out somewhere with Usher I think I had to be respectful of her enough to know that number one, that's my wife and she ain't got treatment, she ain't got embarrassment.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 2: But number two, she is a superstar too and that is a moment for her and that viral moment could lead to betterment for our household and for her career, and you had to be in a position where you're secure enough to be supportive of that.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: This is a star.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: These things are going to happen, you know.
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 2: It's a good example of it Brian and Destra.
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: Brian is Destra's husband.
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 2: Right, destra is do what Usher is do.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: She call man up on stage and she get him the little.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: And she had long nails and long nails on her neck and you know what them long nails is do for you home.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: And you know how she's watched certain things.
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 2: So when she watch a certain way and that could be very hurtful you could end up tweeting hey, here's our mother, respect yourself, watch what Destra does.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: Well, when she go on stage, you come out there all again.
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 2: Take any element.
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 2: Bam, bam getting wet when rain fall in.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: That could be very hurtful.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: But Brian seemed to be as a husband and her manager too.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 2: He seemed to be okay with that.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 2: I've never heard anything where he was overly.
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 2: I mean maybe one where somebody was sending some kind of nudes to Destra and thing and he addressed it.
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: But other than that, you could see that he respect her career.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: You respect that.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 2: She's a star If you are her manager.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: I'm assuming that you could assume that if you look at individual outcomes and I'm not sure they look at it that way anyway but if they look at individual incomes, destra probably making more money than him.
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: She's more famous than him.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 2: That's star, but he figured out, he figured out.
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 2: Well, they've been together since forever, since I know about Destra, they've been together and they have a nice little arrangement.
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: So unless you have the manliness, the, what you wanna call it, the alpha hood, whatever it might be, or just the security in yourself, like Brian but they forget superstars and them kind of thing it's not gonna work out good for you.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: It's gonna work out good because that is rare, that could be stressful and it could be anything, but it is nothing wrong with that.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: You know, sometimes you build, sometimes you build.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: I keep something wrong with that.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 2: You're saying you see, this situation here, I don't like it.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: I feel disrespected by these things.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: I feel hurt when you do these kinds of things and when I address it with you, I'm not getting any kind of change or redress or adjustment or I'm not feeling like my feelings taken into consideration.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 2: So I'm leaving and best of wishes, you know what I mean, mind your child for yourself.
• 1:03:46
  Speaker 2: He's a single mother.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: Now you know what I'm saying.
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 2: Nothing wrong with that, that's just joking, I see about the child, right, but nothing wrong with that too.
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: You're in this situation and it's rough on.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 2: Whatever you could leave, you could leave.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: You don't approve your manhood to nobody.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: You alone could define what is manhood or womanhood for you.
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: So woman is the same situation.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: If you were a man, if you were a man, like, what do you think If a boy, dingo or one of these youths, squid, did that?
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 2: Squid did that?
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 2: So if you would one of them and that is too much for you to handle in terms of all them sort of woman dancers here every night, I'm writing on the thing and then it's.
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 2: If you can handle that, nothing wrong with saying here or going on mobile listening.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: You see me, I don't want to say what you doing.
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: I find it disrespectful.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: You might find somebody else who find that is cool, but the thing will be me and I respect myself based on my own standards.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: I want to walk away from that situation.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: And I remember another situation in the state.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: I see two.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: What's about Adam 22 boy as he fell, as Adam 22 is a popular podcastor, right?
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: Podcastor who used to run a podcast called Nojumper right, doing artists, rapper interviews and them kind of thing.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 2: Adam 22?
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 2: Wait, I supposed to be playing scruncher.
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: Are we getting there, adam 22?
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: This episode, bust it into for sure.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: Adam 22 was also a porn star.
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: Now, I didn't know this porn star side him, right.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: I only know Adam as an interviewer interviewing several rappers.
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: Joe Bono was on that podcast before.
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: So we've seen Adam 22 are wrong over the years and he'd recently get married and now, after getting married, now his wife is also a porn star, right?
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 2: I should mention that it seems as though they met in the porn world and they married and they used to do scenes with other women, but she never do a scene on a man other than him.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: Apparently, they've been having discussions behind closed doors which he publicized through his platforms that it keeping back her career and she have several offers on the table to do things, because I guess if you only do things with your man, you become more coveted, right?
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: You know all these things is work, so her price going up and she have real big opportunities to go on, a big opportunities to go and do it.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 2: Right, adam 22,.
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 2: They decided that she would do it and she do it recently on a site called Blacked.
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 2: All right, no, if you hear the word Blacked and you laugh, get out of the characters, get her piss in your life.
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: What the hell going on with you?
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: If you know what that is, if you don't know what it is, I don't suggest you go and look for it.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: I don't suggest you go and look for it.
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 2: I understand.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: Don't look, pretend you never hear that.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 2: But she went on Blacked, which is famous for BBC, and if you think BBC is a news channel, so look to you, you're going to heaven.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: But if you know what BBC is, hell, all of us going together, right, but that is where she went and she do the scene.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 2: And this man is now justifying this thing and and also lining up others, because apparently now there's a lot of lining up of other people coming in.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: Now, kaisen, another famous YouTuber, come on and say he was streamer.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 2: Come on and say he, he in, in and Ross.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: So this is, this is no brainer.
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 2: Again, I don't know what it takes to be no porn star.
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know it takes to be no superstar, but I know what it takes to play.
• 1:07:05
  Speaker 2: No, you have a woman who went out today and watch BBC right, they partake in some BBC and you had to lie down and sleep.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 2: But I know that and I know, just like I said, you know, darius, I know I might be able to handle that.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: So it's better I stay away from that and I don't deal with them kind of problems.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 2: But I but I stay away from them types of issues and if it comes down to those kind of things, better I be by myself.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: Roll on, roll on.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I forget how to play Scraunter, yeah.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: Hey, girl, I always run you under my mind.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 1: I have been watching you for so many times.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: You know you set my eyes on fire, girl.
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 1: You are my eyes.
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 1: Please try.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: When I see a person in your sexy eyes, girl, I often wonder if I get a chance.
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: When I see them, they move, showing on your cheeks.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: I don't get to spend.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 1: It does make me weak.
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: Why don't you come over?
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: Hi, I'm a bachelor.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: Why don't you come over?
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: I am a bachelor.
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: Why don't you come over?
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 1: Hi, I'm a bachelor.
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: Tell this geeky promise, I am a bachelor.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 1: Hey, hey, hey, hey.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: You are my coconut water in the morning, my color blue and a sun-dried leaf.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 1: The next thing I must explain I want to be a passenger on your train, girl, you're really don't know how you make me feel you are the only woman to get my love for me.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: If there's anything else I can say or do, I will surely do it just to convince you.
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: Why don't you come over?
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 1: I am a bachelor.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: Why don't you come over?
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: I am a bachelor.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 1: Why don't you come over?
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: I am a bachelor.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: Why don't you come over?
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: I am a bachelor.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: Hey, sweet man, come on man.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 2: Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding ding, Bachelor.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: You know I feel all gone now.
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 2: What is this situation?
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 2: What we gonna do?
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: I see everybody since last week NutrumX dropped the prices of flour and I was waiting to hear where the big boy go say, because NFM is basically market leader, they're the demacy fellows in charge.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 2: So I hear people talking about NutrumX flour going down and all them kind of things and people saying they're waiting to see if the price of bread go fall and price of KFC, the price of doubles.
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 2: You know the conversation.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: Usually here the conversation also seemed to be that Trinidadians don't know how to protest and if we used to protest and come together we would not have these kind of issues.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 2: Because in the States I hear a man saying it already yesterday in the States if something only go by five cents is a riot.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: I've never seen that happen in the States or anywhere to.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 2: Without matter.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: The reality is that humans, nobody in protestant, for no price of logwin.
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 2: We go first, we go fight on them kind of things.
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 2: But there are some simple concepts that explain why these things are and I was talking in a class last week and I was trying to tell them that, listen, when I was small, doubles was a dollar.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: Doubles is six dollars.
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 2: Now that is thousands of percentage points increased, right, I can't add so well, but it's plenty right, it went up by a lot, which is a significant increase in price.
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 2: The issue is that because our doubles is a very small percentage of our salaries, whether you're making one fifth day, making 10 dollars now you're making, you're doing a little food drop and you're in making much at all.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: So how much you're making?
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 2: Six dollars is a small percentage of our income, right?
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 2: Even smaller percentage of our income is that dollar, which is the dollar when it raised from five to six, it is a small percentage of your income.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: So you tend to find that because of that, there are concepts called elasticity of demand, right, and there are some called inelastic demand.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 2: So pitch up Arababan, right, Arababan.
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 2: Arababan could either be very stretchy or not too stretchy.
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 2: So when you're talking about elasticity, they're trying to say how stretchy the thing is and it says to something, right.
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 2: So, elasticity of demand, what we call price elasticity of demand is how much does demand for product change when the price of the product change?
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 2: If, when the price of the product change, the demand responds drastically like a big stretch.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 2: They say it's elastic, it's supple.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean Supple like kiki.
• 1:12:26
  Speaker 2: But if it's not supple and it's not they call it inelastic.
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 2: So it's a big price change doesn't lead to a big change in demand and that's your reality about these types of consumer products.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: It has nothing to do with trillians with two dotties and we just accept it.
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 2: It has nothing to do with that.
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 2: It's just basic economics there and it is known.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: It is not uncommon.
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 2: This is very common to you.
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 2: You go to economics class.
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 2: You will learn this in class two.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: This is not no revelation and you know the thing is outside of economics class.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 2: We know this instinctively as well.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: They have some items in our household where, no matter how the price change, we will not buy any more any less.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 2: A fellow named Elder, then fellow, make more fun and love the economy.
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 2: Because when he explained this concept, the best explanation I hear of it is like salt, you know table salt, he say.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 2: If the price of salt drop by 99%, I guess they started to get salt for a cent.
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 2: It don't mean you're gonna just because the price fall, you're gonna just buy more, more, more salt because it's not responsive to price changes.
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: They say how much of a salt do you need?
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 2: Do you need that same amount of salt?
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 2: And it is almost the same for according to where the price rise up to a certain point, of course, right.
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 2: If the price rise to the point where it started to become a significant party income, you will see a different type of curve, right?
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 2: So I hope that makes sense.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 2: So the reality is that think of this, All the fuss we make in all about nutrients.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: My first thing is that nothing is going to move until flour mills make a move.
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 2: And flour mills is likely to move because nutrimix has moved, because you had to stay competitive.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 2: Now, right, they don't want to go and give up too much space.
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 2: I say nutrimix, is that right?
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 2: People are feeling like nutrimix is like dog food and thing.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: I hope I have it right.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 2: Whoever said last week is them a talking board, right.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 2: But in the news day this week I predicted the headline is NFM flour prices cut by 10%.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 2: Because if your competitors are cut, you probably had to make a change and you probably had to make it fast, especially as a market leader.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 2: And a market leader will probably hold their price until somebody else move, Unless they want to do something else with strategy concern.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 2: But they have no reason to want to cut their price, Regardless of if the cost to them goes down.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 2: The reality is that they understand that the same amount of flour will go down even if the price remains at the point that nothing will change, right?
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 2: You buy any flour, now, how much ever flour you use in your household.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: Or you buy any bread items or the KFC or the things that use flour.
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 2: Right, what's an economist?
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: You're called derived demand.
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: The demand comes from the fact that people buy from kiss and kiss uses their thing.
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 2: You and change.
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 2: Listen, you're not changing the amount of bread you buy because you have knowledge that the world market for flour gone down and now kiss making more money off the bread and NFM.
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: You're not doing that.
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: Let me forget the idea.
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: But if our competitor changes, you probably will adjust to that.
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 2: So it's a state owned national flour mills has reduced its prices by around 10% of all its main retail brands of flour.
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: After monitoring world grain prices over the past few weeks, CEO Ian Mitchell said, along with keeping an iron prices, the cost of freight and the other inputs contributed to this drop in light of what we now believe to be stable, realized cost reductions.
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 2: We could pause enough our minutes.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 2: He said in light of what we now believe to be stable, realized cost reductions an important statement.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: He said we have decided to pass his savings on to our customers.
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 2: What he's trying to say there is the cost was dropped for some time now.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 2: But they have to sit down and monitor If this cost drop is sustainable.
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 2: Is it something that will remain low?
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 2: Because what will happen is if that cost drop and they automatically drop their prices and that cost fluctuates again and go back up, people are going to be incensed.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: And then there's a whole situation about the deal with PR and all them kind of thing that it's not worth dealing with.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: So they have realized higher margins because, I mean, think of it.
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: A profit margin is just way pay for something versus where you sell it for.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: So if I sell it and it's done on its shelf for $20 a pound and I was paying $12 a pound to bring it in and get it on its shelf and then the price dropped to about $6 a pound, I was just making $14 now.
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: Where I was making it before and I got it, they were eating up all them extra profits before and I wouldn't come out and say if I'm Ian Mitchell I would say, boy, you know, I decided to drop this price because I'm fellas, drop the price.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 2: I was enjoying my higher margin and eating good and stock price was looking better and my performance and my bonus and things.
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that I would more than likely say, in light of what we now believe to be stable, realize cost reductions and decide to pass it on to the consumer because we care about the consumer.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 2: He added that the short, medium and long term objective of NFMs price and decisions will always be to give consumers the best quality products from a safe, quality food certified floor producer at the most competitive price.
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 2: Just understand that when you say most competitive price, that's exactly what you say in my competition drops or dropping.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: I have to stay competitive.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 2: That's our business decision.
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, yes, I guess the consumer is parted, but that's dollars and cents, that's bottom line decisions.
• 1:17:47
  Speaker 2: So everybody here with them, including myself, to see if the price of groceries will go down, because there are a few markers in our society and the price of grain or the price of flour is one, the price of gas I think we talked about that some episodes ago where when the price of gas go up, you can expect everything else to go up, particularly diesel.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 2: Right, the same could be said for flour, because flour is such a staple in the society.
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 2: I tend to find a price of flour drop general prices in the grocery shop.
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 2: I just want to go back to one thing he said here.
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 2: He said on keeping an eye on the prices, the cost of freight was also part of it.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 2: He said it wasn't just the world prices of grain, it was also the cost of freight.
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 2: Let me actually say something.
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 2: The cost of freight when you bring a container in a country, the cost of bringing in the container, does it fluctuate based on what you're bringing in the container?
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 2: The answer to that is no right.
• 1:18:43
  Speaker 2: There are other costs that will fluctuate based on where you're bringing, like the duties and so on.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: But to bring in a container is to bring in a container.
• 1:18:48
  Speaker 2: So if the cost of freight drop, shouldn't that mean that everything that comes in this country, the price should be going down?
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 2: I think that is a more important discussion now we need to be having that People don't seem to be having.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 2: When they drop their price.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 2: People also seem to think that when the, when NFM drop their price and the other floor people drop their price, I think it's the electronics when they drop their price case supposed to go wrong now in the store and scratch off all the price or all the bread and drop it.
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 2: It don't work that way.
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 2: Whatever they paid for the inputs that they had before them, things still on the shelf, they have that price change go up monocycle.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 2: So at this point I have now now, having seen a neutron makes easy people, man neutron makes easy come its competitor drops its price from 10 to 13% and country pride on neutral makes premium grade flower.
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 2: So where you will see happening more than likely is I think the price of the.
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 2: The bread will drop bread for sure.
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 2: As a direct input on such a big portion doubles, I think it will cause the price of doubles to hold.
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 2: I ain't think they're trying to drop the price of that.
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 2: I would be surprised if the price of doubles drop right.
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: But I think kiss will drop the price of bread.
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 2: Once kiss make their move, Linda's on.
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a big competitor for bread in this country.
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 2: Kiss and Linda's really are too big boys, but they will make their move as well.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: Everybody will kind of wait on Kiss to make their move, and then they will adjust accordingly.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 2: Enjoy your higher margins until then, but the price will go down.
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 2: What you're likely to see, though, is Kiss may well use this as part of their marketing campaign, Because why not?
• 1:20:27
  Speaker 2: If your price is going down, consumers typically happy about that.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 2: So you might find that a bigger announcement and fanfare made around this so that everybody knows and they use that to build a brand or maintain their brand they are one of the strongest brands in the country or in the region by far, so I feel that you're likely to see that.
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: The last line, the last paragraph for this says though retail prices have decreased, commercial customers are yet to receive the same good news, according to Peter George, owner Lynda's bakery.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 2: He said despite the retail price change, there's nothing has changed in his operations.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: So you're finding that now you're not seeing the change in price at the cashier yet for the bread, but that's likely to come with it in the next couple months.
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 2: Then here from Paula Stacey this week.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 2: She went price smart yesterday and she was saying that she had noticed several price drops across the grocery as well, and I talk about regular items like non flower related items, things like broccoli and so on, but I will continue to see that as a trend you're seeing worldwide where the spike that happened with logistics during COVID, the correction seemed to be happening and the changes there, but everybody there will enjoy their higher margins or wait to see, according to Ian, if the prices stabilize, if it's a stabilized reduction in cost that they're facing, because you don't want to do one drop your price and then tomorrow you're going to adjust that price up again.
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of work, especially in the supermarket space, because there's a deal that dropping your price, though, just means telling consumers you could get for 14 instead of 15.
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 2: It also means every deal you have with every outlet, like super farm, all the groceries, all the gas stations, all those deals are the change and that is a lot of adjustment to be made.
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 2: But I expect that prices will go down and, to be honest, I'm happy about that, because you see this, what we went through, I find, to be honest, we went through a period of almost a year where the grocery bill was just getting higher and higher and higher.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 2: Every time you study how much groceries you had to buy.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 2: The figure just keeps going higher and higher.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 2: It's like it's at no end to the reason and at one point I tell myself but like Paula Stacy, she's spending.
• 1:22:45
  Speaker 2: Oh, you know what I mean.
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 2: I say like she's waiting for me to dairies and kick you out of this situation for her to take half, like she's taking half up front.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 2: But again, before I go out I have to make sure I put my scruncher behind on the scruncher plate.
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 2: So another one of scruncher biggest hits.
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 2: She got that cam face, she got it close to the table and with this retreat she starts to explain it's the oil in the coin that I'm looking to.
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 2: I want them, some men and them to know it's the oil in the coin.
• 1:24:08
  Speaker 2: So don't mind my slow code we use an iron with firewood.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 1: She say my name is Ana Bela.
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 1: Ana lives in Marabella, where, once again, you want to know.
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 1: Now you find out that I'm looking to I need them 20 degrees.
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: I want to increase.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: It's the oil in the coin that I'm looking to.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 1: I want them some men and them to know.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: It's the oil in the coin.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 1: So don't mind my slow code.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 1: We use an iron with firewood.
• 1:25:24
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 1: I need them 20 degrees.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: I want them some men and them, to know it's the oil in the coin.
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 2: So don't mind my slow code.
• 1:25:42
  Speaker 2: We use an iron with firewood.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 2: I want them, some men and them, to know it's the oil in the coin.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: So don't mind my slow code.
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 2: We use an iron with firewood.
• 1:26:03
  Speaker 2: I'm looking to, I'm looking to, I'm looking to.

  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:01
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:05
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:17
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:26
  Speaker 2: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:40
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:44
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:35:59
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:36:03
  Speaker 1: I'm looking to.
• 1:36:24
  Speaker 2: I'm looking to, I'm looking to, I'm looking to, I'm looking to, I'm looking to, I'm looking to, I'm looking to, I'm looking to countries or companies to buy into the idea of a four day work week.
• 1:37:48
  Speaker 2: They have several pieces of research that show that what they're looking for is called work life rebalance and they quoted us saying the Monday to Friday grind is outdated.
• 1:37:59
  Speaker 2: They argues that non-profit.
• 1:38:01
  Speaker 2: Argues that non-profit behind a raft of studies of what happens when workers drop a day without losing pay.
• 1:38:08
  Speaker 2: Productivity doesn't fall since their CEO, dale Whelan, because rested people perform better, they said during a 6 month pilot last year, attrition went down and revenues held.
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 2: 92% of the participating businesses say they would stick with their schedule.
• 1:38:22
  Speaker 2: So these fellows going around the world trying to get people to convert a four day work week and I wonder if we're ready for it I would like Joel to not just do an interview on this, but it would be nice to have an opinion piece on this from somebody else.
• 1:38:37
  Speaker 2: I think Joel is in charge of Express's business desk now, and I mean Express themselves have enough years of research and just catalog on knowledge, and him himself, working in every media house in the country over the last few years have enough of what it takes to be able to put together an article that says what is the opinion of companies here about the four day work week.
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 2: Because he took the article from the angle of finding out more from the people who pioneering this movement.
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 2: I want to ask you you all feel turned down to be here already for a four day work week, and which four days to can the four day work week here be?
• 1:39:18
  Speaker 2: You still have your Saturday and Sunday off, but you go to work Monday and Tuesday, you get Wednesday off and then you go to work Tuesday and Friday.
• 1:39:25
  Speaker 2: Or are we only looking for Monday or the Friday off to make three-day weekends to FET and have River Lime and Cury Duck and Ting ride through?
• 1:39:34
  Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
• 1:39:36
  Speaker 2: I would only prefer.
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 2: What's the situation?
• 1:39:38
  Speaker 2: I tell men and when I heard about it.
• 1:39:42
  Speaker 2: So I was thinking about it in the context of the amount of holidays we already have, I wonder if people would be okay having a four day work week and whenever a religious holiday comes up, that is the day that is off.
• 1:39:56
  Speaker 2: So, for instance, when you have Eid if Eid fallen on a Tuesday, a four day work week is Monday, tuesday, wednesday and Friday.
• 1:40:03
  Speaker 2: Would that be too disruptive to our society?
• 1:40:05
  Speaker 2: Or can we just agree that we have every Friday off, every Friday of the year, and you work every other day, forget when it's holiday.
• 1:40:15
  Speaker 2: No more holidays every Friday.
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 2: So if Eid fall on the Wednesday, everybody celebrate Eid and we commemorate it on the Friday.
• 1:40:22
  Speaker 2: Are we willing to go to this?
• 1:40:24
  Speaker 2: Because the studies showing and these are not the only people doing this, you're seeing more and more wrongly will where people trying to say that work-life balances is under threat.
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 2: I personally don't find work-life balance to be a thing I think I work right through at this point.
• 1:40:41
  Speaker 2: It's a very few moments where I'm not working or working on something or working towards something.
• 1:40:46
  Speaker 2: But with the whole idea of work-over-whatsapp group and it's all emails and it's just so many ways to contact one another and you're under the gun right through.
• 1:40:55
  Speaker 2: You're always on the clock kind of thing, right, especially if you're moving into more senior positions or with more responsibility or you're earning more.
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 2: You're always on.
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 2: It's just the world we live in.
• 1:41:06
  Speaker 2: You can't get out of the news cycle and you can't avoid work.
• 1:41:10
  Speaker 2: There's two things that seem to be happening without any of our control.
• 1:41:14
  Speaker 2: So we've gone all the way into work where we've brought work home, we've created spaces in our homes for work and I saw somebody post something there that they're saying you leave Jamaica or you leave Trinidad to go and live in the States, to work, to be able to afford a vacation, to come back to Trinidad.
• 1:41:32
  Speaker 2: And sometimes I feel like that's what we do.
• 1:41:35
  Speaker 2: I take on so much jobs and do so much work and trying to increase you know what I mean.
• 1:41:39
  Speaker 2: You're always on the go and I thought it would quick seems to be a good idea.
• 1:41:44
  Speaker 2: Except that I want to hear from the BP and the oil whoever is it people who do the every Friday off.
• 1:41:50
  Speaker 2: What does off mean?
• 1:41:51
  Speaker 2: Off mean your boss can contact you.
• 1:41:53
  Speaker 2: No response to emails.
• 1:41:55
  Speaker 2: How does off look these days?
• 1:41:56
  Speaker 2: Because if you could work from anywhere and you have devices that cause you to be in work or logged into work at all times or tuned into what is happening, there's a four day work week.
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 2: Really allow us to tune out completely, not focus on work, and relax over that new version of our weekend and like the transition period and all something complicated because if we are accustomed to Friday as a weekend, you'll feel kind of awkward not going to work on a Friday at all or not taking work calls or not getting anything done.
• 1:42:25
  Speaker 2: And there's a certain percentage of the population to who are the police at the work you can use supermarket or the pharmacy at the work, those places not going to close on a day to day basis Assuming here they mean administrative and managerial type work and that kind of thing or people who, if you have safety man, you could get called out any day.
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 2: Or fireman.
• 1:42:44
  Speaker 2: What's going to happen?
• 1:42:47
  Speaker 2: So while I like the idea of the concept of a four day work week, I think the deeper thing for me is I like the idea of figuring out how to get back in tune with relaxation and let go somebody's stress.
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 2: They say stress is such a killer these days, stress is the new smoking right.
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, if there are ways first to improve our work life balance, or what these people call work life rebalance, I think it's worth exploring.
• 1:43:15
  Speaker 2: But I just found this article interesting in that a four day work week is not something I couldn't necessarily believe.
• 1:43:23
  Speaker 2: It's hard to believe.
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 2: I feel like they go still send more messages on a Friday or whichever day we choose I feel like in our society would be even harder to implement because we have this issue with about a month's worth of holiday, how much of a days we have here, not about 30 holidays.
• 1:43:39
  Speaker 2: We had to figure out how now we're going to include this in our busy schedule of holidaying and how we're going to get it work done and put that against the backdrop of schools that remain open five days a week where children have to go to school in person.
• 1:43:56
  Speaker 2: What does that mean for your home time Like?
• 1:43:59
  Speaker 2: One of the things I stand to realize now is nobody didn't want me about this, or let's say I'm on children and development and all that.
• 1:44:05
  Speaker 2: Now, when I had to drop this man karate, I might work from home on a Tuesday.
• 1:44:09
  Speaker 2: Most Tuesdays I do, I work in from home and then after I done work now a whole day I had to get up to carry this man karate for five o'clock and find something to do for an hour while he's doing karate.
• 1:44:22
  Speaker 2: I want to join the karate class, but I keep hearing in my head that I have a movie where noise is from Dave Chappelle show, where James was saying Charlie Murphy doing karate among the little kids.
• 1:44:34
  Speaker 2: I didn't like that.
• 1:44:35
  Speaker 2: I keep hearing nine in my head every time I see a joining karate class.
• 1:44:38
  Speaker 2: But I'm tired and I drive out.
• 1:44:40
  Speaker 2: We're running the traffic because now at five, if you leave at home five to go, you go into the traffic when I was working home.
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 2: So that dropping and picking up from karate again to be stressful for me is like what does this mean?
• 1:44:51
  Speaker 2: So if we go into a four day week, is it possible to address the idea about four day school week as well?
• 1:44:59
  Speaker 2: And I say in this against the context of I told you all that Zachary had moved schools and the school that he knows so little, miss Aquillo and you know me not even blasted school.
• 1:45:11
  Speaker 2: Miss Aquila school, right, so little Miss Aquila school, me, not even school in her school.
• 1:45:18
  Speaker 2: They have a four day school week.
• 1:45:20
  Speaker 2: So what they do?
• 1:45:21
  Speaker 2: They go to school five days a week, right, but the Friday is reserved for I think they do swimming, they do tennis and they play board games, they play football right in the yard and if you buy by the school there, and so on.
• 1:45:33
  Speaker 2: And I have seen a marked improvement in Zachary's school work, more importantly, his attitude towards school work, his attitude towards his extracurricular activity, he says attitude towards school as a whole.
• 1:45:48
  Speaker 2: And he, in his junior wisdom, the other day, telling me he, he said, you know, since I was in boy school, he said I never liked doing school work on a Friday.
• 1:45:57
  Speaker 2: You know, he said I find Friday should be a day to relax.
• 1:46:00
  Speaker 2: And I try this.
• 1:46:01
  Speaker 2: I tell them.
• 1:46:02
  Speaker 2: I say, zachary, how you can open this, you now know that is a possibility for a four day school week.
• 1:46:07
  Speaker 2: You had no idea that a four day work school week could have existed.
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 2: You're only saying that noise revisionist history.
• 1:46:14
  Speaker 2: Right, is what I'm trying to tell him.
• 1:46:15
  Speaker 2: He's thinking I'll give me that we having a try on.
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 2: But his point was no, he said Fridays feel like a relaxed day because is it day before the weekend?
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 2: This is what you talk about, boy school, right, he said everybody feeling a little more relaxed but we still pushing to do work.
• 1:46:30
  Speaker 2: And he said then, after lunch, everybody anticipating the weekend and it is hard to focus so you can't get a whole lot done anyway.
• 1:46:37
  Speaker 2: So he said a lot of times when he was in school on a Friday, if he wasn't doing much anyway, so it's like, why do why we don't just take this day off.
• 1:46:45
  Speaker 2: And I was trying to tell him.
• 1:46:46
  Speaker 2: I said, brother, if you do that, then the Thursday will feel exactly like that.
• 1:46:50
  Speaker 2: But feel he onto something here which is again, is a 10 year old wisdom we let me roll wisdom.
• 1:46:55
  Speaker 2: He's seeing something because we all know what it feels like to be in work on a Friday and Friday is a wind down type of day and I saying that it will transfer to Thursday if we do that.
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 2: But if there's a way to make us look, we still have to go to work or we still have to be there or be virtually there, but the day is a day for play.
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 2: I always remember missing Claire when we were doing common entrance.
• 1:47:18
  Speaker 2: We do all the work and then, a couple of days before common entrance, she carries and he's a vander to play cricket and when I asked them about it we're like where's he pointed this?
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 2: It's the blow off steam and you study as hard as you could, you do as much work.
• 1:47:28
  Speaker 2: So maybe as adults we could take a pattern from Mr Quilla and them, you know, and find ways to make Friday a entertaining team building, group working type of session where we detox from the week a little bit, because if anything that it helps us do, rather than having a four day work week and a day where we an additional day of the weekend, it might be real useful if we help the transition to the weekend so we work real hard for four days, maybe even longer hours I'm talking particularly for senior people here now maybe even longer hours, where you work eight or you typically work eight hours a day, might work 10 hours or 12, or some of us work long hours, some of us are two jobs, right.
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 2: But if in that job there's a recreation type activity where there's a line I'm talking about after weekline where you go and drink and drunk your sorrows right a lime, a team builder, something exciting, something that we as adults could be the equivalent of swimming or tennis or playing football with the partners to Zachary.
• 1:48:23
  Speaker 2: If we do that and we treat the Friday as a transition type day so that we create a sort of mental and physical separation between your work life and then we're going to your home life, you're coming in a more pleasant way and you enjoy your week and more to talk about among the family when you ask people.
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 2: You know that kind of thing when everybody come home tired and they say how was your day?
• 1:48:43
  Speaker 2: And you say good, it matters to the conversation happening.
• 1:48:47
  Speaker 2: But anyway, that's just my thoughts thinking out loud, and I am really here to play scrunto and one of these songs that I couldn't leave an episode without playing is one of the songs that he would have won the calypso monacoit.
• 1:49:04
  Speaker 2: So I'm not sure how popular this song would be to people.
• 1:49:07
  Speaker 2: Some people know it off the bat, right, but if you don't know, it is one of sprints of best me.
• 1:49:43
  Speaker 1: I hold back as a guy.
• 1:49:44
  Speaker 1: He says come boy, I'm getting old, I leave you to control.
• 1:49:48
  Speaker 1: If you follow my instruction, we'll be murdering Tom when you next come back down.
• 1:49:53
  Speaker 1: You go make them tom.
• 1:49:57
  Speaker 1: No tom, any heart has gone.
• 1:50:00
  Speaker 1: You go, make them to go ready.
• 1:50:02
  Speaker 1: Let it rock and sway.
• 1:50:04
  Speaker 1: I tell you where the fun Men are doing the running.
• 1:50:07
  Speaker 1: You do not have drunk boy, plenty of man go lost.
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 1: They have to go.
• 1:50:11
  Speaker 1: You go.
• 1:50:12
  Speaker 1: He says it's time now.
• 1:50:39
  Speaker 1: I give this is somebody Front and you are always the closer one to me.
• 1:50:45
  Speaker 1: Although the green line goes drop.
• 1:50:47
  Speaker 1: I leave you right on the job.
• 1:50:49
  Speaker 1: You go, man, you can't go wrong With this bag of song.
• 1:50:53
  Speaker 1: You shaggy them one To make them tom.
• 1:50:58
  Speaker 1: No tom, any heart has gone.
• 1:51:01
  Speaker 1: You go make them to go ready.
• 1:51:03
  Speaker 1: Let it rock and sway.
• 1:51:05
  Speaker 1: I tell you where the fun Men are doing the running.
• 1:51:08
  Speaker 1: You do not have drunk boy, plenty of man go lost.
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 1: They have to go.
• 1:51:11
  Speaker 1: You go, p-p-p.
• 1:51:35
  Speaker 2: One of the more memorable performances In our Calypso Mona.
• 1:51:38
  Speaker 2: The song is about him saying Kitchena passed it over to him, passed the bat, or right, passed the torch over to him.
• 1:51:45
  Speaker 2: He get the will from Lord Kitchena and Kitchena say Scranton, take it over, you go from here.
• 1:51:49
  Speaker 2: And he brought out Kitchena on stage.
• 1:51:51
  Speaker 2: I mean he's masterful writing.
• 1:51:53
  Speaker 2: I mean Scranton as a lyricist is bad in masterful writing and everything but that performance would have sealed it up and he won that Calypso Monarch.
• 1:52:01
  Speaker 2: I want to tell you the year, but I can't remember.
• 1:52:03
  Speaker 2: I want to say 84.
• 1:52:06
  Speaker 2: I'll correct that if it wrong.
• 1:52:08
  Speaker 2: Let me google it one time.
• 1:52:09
  Speaker 2: I know it's really 80s, I think, or it could be 88.
• 1:52:14
  Speaker 2: Let me say the writing Calypso Monarch, history, scranton, where 82 hours close.
• 1:52:27
  Speaker 2: That wasn't bad.
• 1:52:28
  Speaker 2: So the two songs was the Will and Alikiting, alikiting, alikiting, alikiting, alikiting, alikiting Aling, where there's Chinese Iron man.
• 1:52:37
  Speaker 2: So that's Scranton and I have a few more Scrantons to play before the episode done.
• 1:52:41
  Speaker 2: But I'll clean up some spillage before I get what I was here to, because the year is still continued and I want to congratulate the Ministry and the National Parents Teachers Association for coming together and making a decision that the year issue will be reviewed and a new year policy will be set by the Ministry.
• 1:52:58
  Speaker 2: Of course, the denominational bodies I mean.
• 1:53:03
  Speaker 2: One day I will come in and talk about that Concordat thing and the idea of religions running schools, and I'll talk about that in general because there was a little documentary.
• 1:53:16
  Speaker 2: I had seen what's that documentary?
• 1:53:17
  Speaker 2: My favorite partner from the Conti-Consul, jason Charles Gordon, was talking about the Concordat the other day and it was a really interesting perspective.
• 1:53:26
  Speaker 2: I'll talk about it in a full episode dedicated to that, because he was saying that people making fuss and want to take back the Concordat now, which basically guarantees a system out of spaces for the religious bodies in these schools, and his point was that our education system cannot do it without the denominational bodies.
• 1:53:46
  Speaker 2: I didn't think of it that way, to be honest.
• 1:53:48
  Speaker 2: But when you look at how many schools are Catholic, muslim and Hindu schools and if you take them out of the system completely and they shut down schools and all you have is the government schools, we have a big problem.
• 1:54:00
  Speaker 2: Is a large percentage right?
• 1:54:02
  Speaker 2: When you look at the fact that a lot of the denominational schools are the ones that we consider prestige schools, you know if you get a child to go a Catholic or Muslim or Hindu primary school and a Catholic, muslim or Hindu secondary school.
• 1:54:15
  Speaker 2: You tend to find that the results in those schools are better than the number of scholarships are better, and so on.
• 1:54:20
  Speaker 2: If that is the case, then it's something that happened in the denominational schools that we might be able to learn from and implement in government schools to make them better schools.
• 1:54:31
  Speaker 2: So it's hard to argue now that they can't defend the 20% of who they want to put in there From the religious standpoint.
• 1:54:37
  Speaker 2: If our religious bodies invest in the education of the nation and, by extension, the future of the country, you can't deny them the opportunity.
• 1:54:45
  Speaker 2: So I don't know if you want to call it inculcate, indoctrinate, convince, convert.
• 1:54:50
  Speaker 2: They had to teach their religion.
• 1:54:52
  Speaker 2: That is what they believe will give them eternal life and eternal peace and make the world a better place.
• 1:54:56
  Speaker 2: So you're not going to be able to eliminate that.
• 1:54:58
  Speaker 2: I went to Catholic schools.
• 1:54:59
  Speaker 2: I was an Anglican as a child and I used to.
• 1:55:02
  Speaker 2: I had to learn it in primary school, but in secondary school, where I had the option, I used to go and study whole, not because I didn't want to really learn the religion, I just wanted the free period.
• 1:55:11
  Speaker 2: I want to go and learn.
• 1:55:12
  Speaker 2: You know, I mean until for a great make with the religion, like if I was a Catholic.
• 1:55:15
  Speaker 2: So I looked at my guy for a great make.
• 1:55:17
  Speaker 2: But it just it, just it, just.
• 1:55:20
  Speaker 2: It's just an interesting topic that I want to get back to at some point.
• 1:55:24
  Speaker 2: But I say in order to say the ministry decided to review the policy and the Hindu, the Sanatama and Dhamma, mahasabharat Samal, they came out and sadder eschewed it and the minister had to come back and say well, listen, the denominational schools still have to make their own decision because each school can have their own policy, not just can.
• 1:55:43
  Speaker 2: Each school has their own policy and the way they do things.
• 1:55:46
  Speaker 2: So there's a there's that eschewable concord as well, where the government can make cardblash decisions for the government schools and what they're supposed to do, and teachers in a government school will comply, but in the denominational schools they're not under obligation to comply to all of them.
• 1:56:07
  Speaker 2: You can institute some of your own rules and regulations, but I salute them for going back to look at it, because different here, of different texture, have different styles and I mean we can't just continue to live in a world where you can't come to school to afro and then the rules are rules, people coming to talk to me about it.
• 1:56:21
  Speaker 2: So I'm glad that both things happen and the boys get a punishment that ship sale.
• 1:56:26
  Speaker 2: But now we're reviewing it so that a principal may not be able to take their stance again.
• 1:56:31
  Speaker 2: At least in the government schools, the denominational schools, they're probably still gonna have the same rules.
• 1:56:37
  Speaker 2: I just wanted to remember.
• 1:56:39
  Speaker 2: A lot of the schools that are denominational came from religions that was organized, parts of colonialism and slavery.
• 1:56:50
  Speaker 2: I just want to put that all there right.
• 1:56:52
  Speaker 2: I can't even English and then one Catholic.
• 1:56:55
  Speaker 2: Just remember where some of these things come from and the fact that those schools may never get to the point where they say afro is acceptable hairstyle or cane rose, as I said, acceptable hairstyle.
• 1:57:06
  Speaker 2: But I salute to them.
• 1:57:07
  Speaker 2: They're making it full steps right and just happen bit by bit.
• 1:57:12
  Speaker 2: One of the things that these schools doing where again the ministry have its guidelines is that the ministry clearly put out something saying, hey, when you pass for secondary school, you don't charge nothing.
• 1:57:23
  Speaker 2: It's an old registration fees, no, nothing.
• 1:57:26
  Speaker 2: But some of these schools charging a lot of money.
• 1:57:29
  Speaker 2: I see the man there.
• 1:57:30
  Speaker 2: He was very upset.
• 1:57:31
  Speaker 2: He was very angry he was.
• 1:57:32
  Speaker 2: He was amped.
• 1:57:33
  Speaker 2: He needed a four day work week.
• 1:57:34
  Speaker 2: Because this guy was upset, he was quarreling, because he went his child passed for school.
• 1:57:38
  Speaker 2: It's supposed to be a positive thing.
• 1:57:40
  Speaker 2: It's something like he have a few children and every time they pass he had to pay.
• 1:57:45
  Speaker 2: This thing apparently is about fifteen hundred, twenty five hundred or something.
• 1:57:49
  Speaker 2: They were asked to pay when he went to the school.
• 1:57:52
  Speaker 2: As Joe is another one of them.
• 1:57:54
  Speaker 2: As Joe would be a denominational school as well.
• 1:57:57
  Speaker 2: On a Muslim school and the letter reading from as Joe that went to the parents, this is for one during now committing right as a denominational slash government assisted school.
• 1:58:09
  Speaker 2: We depend on a large.
• 1:58:10
  Speaker 2: We depend in large on support from our parents and student body in maintaining and improving the standards of the college.
• 1:58:18
  Speaker 2: To this end, upon registration the college, upon registration of the college, a contribution of three thousand is required.
• 1:58:24
  Speaker 2: So it is not a registration fee, in keeping with the ministry guidelines.
• 1:58:28
  Speaker 2: It is a contribution and but it's required.
• 1:58:32
  Speaker 2: It's not optional contribution.
• 1:58:35
  Speaker 2: This a collection we collect.
• 1:58:36
  Speaker 2: It is required.
• 1:58:37
  Speaker 2: The payment will cover all the areas below for three years right now.
• 1:58:43
  Speaker 2: Remember, secondary school is five to seven years, right?
• 1:58:46
  Speaker 2: So in other words, this is for three years.
• 1:58:49
  Speaker 2: So in three years we could body again for an X contribution, right?
• 1:58:52
  Speaker 2: So it covers the registration package, not registration the package, which would be a P shoot, and so on.
• 1:58:58
  Speaker 2: You collect the security fees, the office fees, full-time ancillary staff salaries, part time ancillary staff salaries, examination fees, lab fees for chemicals and equipment, co-curricular club fees, fees, general school maintenance and technology education fees is a lot.
• 1:59:20
  Speaker 2: I like how these people put it.
• 1:59:23
  Speaker 2: You know they say this contribution averages seventy five dollars a month for the three year period is marketing at its best and it critically supports provision of essential services required by your son's comfort and success.
• 1:59:35
  Speaker 2: Link services are available at the college or links.
• 1:59:40
  Speaker 2: You could pay by card.
• 1:59:41
  Speaker 2: That's what they're saying and the PTA requires a one-time contribution of five hundred dollars.
• 1:59:46
  Speaker 2: So in all, when you go as you do the first time, you gotta spend up to the five hundred.
• 1:59:51
  Speaker 2: You gotta jump out something solid if you don't spend all your money.
• 1:59:54
  Speaker 2: After common entrance, carrying these children on no trip, all about the place, and you had them in five islands every weekend you're celebrating a kind of Disney.
• 2:00:02
  Speaker 2: And then, when you come back and they get your results, because results they used to be KFC for we were results.
• 2:00:08
  Speaker 2: They know, is TGI everybody going loud, expensive place.
• 2:00:12
  Speaker 2: Hold on to that TGI budget because it might cost you a thirty five hundred when you join the first choice.
• 2:00:18
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be cheap.
• 2:00:18
  Speaker 2: I know for the time that Fatima and them have similar things where Fatima some contributions that have to be made.
• 2:00:25
  Speaker 2: You're probably not hearing a lot about it because all these train went for going for people went private schools and they they good, they have it, they have it, these people's have it, so they're not complaining about it.
• 2:00:36
  Speaker 2: But it's one of the things that people seem to be upset with the denominational schools about.
• 2:00:42
  Speaker 2: This week as, as registration goes on for the new term starting in September and well, listen, it is known that the ministry typically does not give enough money to run the schools properly the performance of the assages and so on of this will shows that something happened right.
• 2:01:02
  Speaker 2: They they doing well by your children and getting your children.
• 2:01:05
  Speaker 2: Maybe those schools considering new neurodivergence in a in a different way, because you're seeing where the results as a body is better than a government school and the results of the high performing individuals is also better than the high performing individuals in some of the government's, almost consistently across the board, you're seeing it.
• 2:01:23
  Speaker 2: So it's clear that the funding for education is not fully there and this is not abnormal for schools to raise funds.
• 2:01:30
  Speaker 2: I remember I went to Fatima and I went tranquil.
• 2:01:33
  Speaker 2: So I've experienced in our denominational school as well as a government school and I could tell you when Fatima sent out a donation sheet I'm doing this comeback fast and full, walk at home fast and full many times.
• 2:01:47
  Speaker 2: I see for myself rather, because when I get a donation sheet, I used to go around in the neighborhood and ask people for dollar.
• 2:01:53
  Speaker 2: You know, I mean I fully need the 25 space is supposed to fill in, but when I fill in a donation sheet is 25 dollars, right, 25 space, 25 dollars.
• 2:02:00
  Speaker 2: That's simple.
• 2:02:02
  Speaker 2: They started changing then and they started changing minimum amongst the five dollars.
• 2:02:05
  Speaker 2: So if I, if I have a thing and it's a 25 space, my thing for, not five by 25, I still can't work that, all the mismatch.
• 2:02:11
  Speaker 2: So that was the thing.
• 2:02:13
  Speaker 2: I remember seeing many children who come in and the 25 spaces had a line through it and one signature and a hundred dollars.
• 2:02:20
  Speaker 2: I mean they have their father or whoever he ain't going that donation sheet route.
• 2:02:25
  Speaker 2: He just crossed out.
• 2:02:26
  Speaker 2: He pre-named him a hundred.
• 2:02:27
  Speaker 2: He said I'd carry that for them.
• 2:02:28
  Speaker 2: So those schools raise money at a much, much faster rate than places like tranquil.
• 2:02:34
  Speaker 2: When I went tranquil, give out a donation sheet, it's not coming back, it's gangsters we stuck.
• 2:02:41
  Speaker 2: You know, bring it back, I don't.
• 2:02:43
  Speaker 2: I don't care about that donation sheet.
• 2:02:44
  Speaker 2: And then, simple thing I used to play basketball for tranquil and stuff.
• 2:02:48
  Speaker 2: I come home and talk to my wife I'll be a credit union.
• 2:02:51
  Speaker 2: We had uniforms for the team, basketballs for the team, paint we could have one, paint our coat and so on.
• 2:02:56
  Speaker 2: Get a little sponsorship deal and it is not the norm that you have somebody in well at.
• 2:03:02
  Speaker 2: When I was in a level to tranquil, the average student did not access to corporate decision makers who could just sponsor things.
• 2:03:09
  Speaker 2: That is a very normal thing.
• 2:03:10
  Speaker 2: In Fatima, my father's in marketing manager here my father's CEO displays my father owner graphics company them.
• 2:03:16
  Speaker 2: Things is pulled together real fast in the sports.
• 2:03:18
  Speaker 2: They are them.
• 2:03:18
  Speaker 2: Things are different world in a school like Fatima versus a school like tranquil.
• 2:03:23
  Speaker 2: And is true activities such as these, because while that fellow is very upset and complaining, he must be wishing each other pass the second choice at this point.
• 2:03:33
  Speaker 2: Mostly parents in these denominational schools not going to be complaining about it, they're going to contribute, they're going to see it as part of the education, see it as part of the obligation to making sure their child and children that come after them have betterment.
• 2:03:44
  Speaker 2: Basically and I saw it with new tongue boys we contribute all kind of things and new tongue boys that I never see when I went in an old building that was broken down after I leave and they build a nice new building there and it's a matter of having it or not.
• 2:03:59
  Speaker 2: In on your perspective of this, because if there are things to do in a school, if whatever schools actually choose to go, if it is, they say it's our fee or it have things to pay or it have things to contribute.
• 2:04:10
  Speaker 2: I go try my best to figure out how I will contribute.
• 2:04:12
  Speaker 2: That you know I mean.
• 2:04:14
  Speaker 2: But to the parents who care for it it is going to be a difficult thing and you're seeing, is seeing, is not that a parent who care for it doesn't acknowledge that we don't need it?
• 2:04:25
  Speaker 2: They might well say, yes, we could see why 75 does a month would be a good contribution.
• 2:04:29
  Speaker 2: But what happens if you don't have it?
• 2:04:31
  Speaker 2: I think that this is something that the ministry or I'm not even sure if this is something ministry to address, but there must be something that we put in place, even for the denominational boards, and the ministry could impose themselves on these situations where you can't, you can't just say I can't pay the 3500, so therefore you can't come to school.
• 2:04:52
  Speaker 2: I wonder what the consequences are for the children who in Ashijo, who can't pay this.
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 2: What happens?
• 2:04:56
  Speaker 2: You a doubt?
• 2:04:58
  Speaker 2: You could tell them you can't come back to the school.
• 2:04:59
  Speaker 2: Right, and my instincts telling me that what could happen is that you have a vice principal or principal or teacher who could individual, single out somebody and say you don't want to pay your parents, what less they wouldn't contribute.
• 2:05:16
  Speaker 2: You know, I see that in school in my time.
• 2:05:18
  Speaker 2: I know we live in a different era, but I see a lot of that in school in my time, where a teacher will call you out on these things.
• 2:05:23
  Speaker 2: You bring a donation sheet and the sheet in fully and they say we told you to follow the.
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 2: They used to tell.
• 2:05:27
  Speaker 2: It is like this party school working.
• 2:05:29
  Speaker 2: I shame to go and ask people for the dollar or ask people and I ain't getting enough, because the socio economic environment I come in from was different to mostly boys in Fatimo.
• 2:05:39
  Speaker 2: So when I went to tranquil I was more the norm than I was in Fatimo.
• 2:05:44
  Speaker 2: Then first on them and I didn't care.
• 2:05:45
  Speaker 2: It's useful, not no donation sheet.
• 2:05:47
  Speaker 2: So he's a name and shame and I mean I feel bad when you go back there and you can't get a stingful out.
• 2:05:53
  Speaker 2: So it's something to keep an eye on as there's more and more tension that seems to be brewing between the denominational schools or the people who covered by the concordat and the Ministry of Education, and it tends those things tend to bubble over when they become general and public issues.
• 2:06:10
  Speaker 2: So the more they become a public issue where the John public now upset because he asked me for 3500 extra dollars, even more pressure would be there on the boards.
• 2:06:19
  Speaker 2: But as I say, I'll go into it a little bit more and Jason will go and address about the concordat and we'll take it from there.
• 2:06:26
  Speaker 2: But here now this episode done it.
• 2:06:28
  Speaker 2: I know if you realize that, but we are at the end.
• 2:06:30
  Speaker 2: This is real.
• 2:06:31
  Speaker 2: I've seen a long list of things that we didn't talk about, so there's going to be some spillage.
• 2:06:38
  Speaker 2: I feel like at the point now where someone of these weeks has to double up, I don't see that coming already.
• 2:06:44
  Speaker 2: I'm promising you that I go happen this week, but I had to double up in one of these weeks to come.
• 2:06:49
  Speaker 2: So before I go I want to leave you with one of Scranton's earlier hits, a song that just the feel of it, the bounce of it, the story behind it, all of it solid to me.
• 2:07:02
  Speaker 2: And again, if you look back at the, I think I played four songs or five songs in this episode.
• 2:07:07
  Speaker 2: If you look back at them, maybe I'll play two.
• 2:07:09
  Speaker 2: If you look back at them, just pay attention to the way Scranton is telling a story and the way he's put things together.
• 2:07:18
  Speaker 2: I think he's one of the best and I would say underrated when it comes to these things, because somehow his name doesn't come up in the conversation as when you talk about the greatest of all time, and I think he deserves to be up there.
• 2:07:32
  Speaker 2: When we're talking shadow and spiral and kitchener and rose, he need to be up there in them conversations because both quantity and quality of music is it is undeniable what Scranton is able to do.
• 2:07:49
  Speaker 2: So I mean I would get to and I only ask her to be so that because this is not scratching the surface of the greatness of Scranton.
• 2:07:57
  Speaker 2: Most I smoke popular songs.
• 2:07:58
  Speaker 2: I didn't get time to play but I want to leave you to this.
• 2:08:01
  Speaker 2: One is called lost tenor right.
• 2:08:03
  Speaker 2: People tend to remember David Rudder with the man with the hammer gone about Rudolph Charles.
• 2:08:08
  Speaker 2: After Rudolph Charles died, this was also a song dedicated to Rudolph Charles and in the same way David Rudder was able to take a fiction, make fiction out of a real story.
• 2:08:22
  Speaker 2: The Rudolph Charles will be a somebody who was.
• 2:08:26
  Speaker 2: He was a despas and he was a pantune and a ranger.
• 2:08:29
  Speaker 2: Basically I was here ranger.
• 2:08:31
  Speaker 2: But they say the whole idea where the hammer was basically organizing the band and drilling the band but gangsters them for something that was bad.
• 2:08:38
  Speaker 2: You know, I mean.
• 2:08:38
  Speaker 2: So you recognize as a pioneer of pan and a stalwart of despas.
• 2:08:44
  Speaker 2: So Scranton took the opportunity to dedicate a song to him and die as well.
• 2:08:50
  Speaker 2: But hammer was such a big hit that this song tends to get lost.
• 2:08:53
  Speaker 2: But I wanted to listen to how Scranton put together this song and the kind of the kind of story telling that went it this lost thought Hispanic music.
