1:08
Speaker 1: As one all it takes one brother, you know it's crazy.
1:15
Speaker 3: All it take is one man.
1:16
Speaker 4: And I used to tell Julian all the time when
1:18
Speaker 4: he was telling me that, you know, he was doing actor,
1:20
Speaker 4: I'm like, well, all you needed one was for the.
1:22
Speaker 6: People who were just seeing you for the first time.
1:24
Speaker 6: What television show are you on?
1:26
Speaker 1: Beauty and Black?
1:28
Speaker 3: First of all, that's the number one.
1:29
Speaker 1: And who do you play? Roy Bellery from the Bellery family?
1:34
Speaker 5: And let's talk about your character.
1:37
Speaker 1: He's he's first of all, he's an outrageous character. He's
1:43
Speaker 1: he always mad, He's always mad. He's he's outrageous, he's vicious.
1:47
Speaker 1: But at the same time, it's a little bit misunderstood
1:49
Speaker 1: at the same time, you know what I'm saying, because
1:50
Speaker 1: he comes from a crazy family. His dad has been
1:53
Speaker 1: very hard on him. If you watch the show, you
1:55
Speaker 1: see that, you know, I try to commit suicide three
1:57
Speaker 1: times in the show. And at the end of the day,
2:00
Speaker 1: he just has, you know, unhaled trauma that he's trying
2:03
Speaker 1: to deal with and things of that nature. So he
2:05
Speaker 1: goes to a lot of vices and that makes them,
2:07
Speaker 1: you know, be mad at Oultreage just that way he is.
2:09
Speaker 6: How close are you to the character because you play
2:13
Speaker 6: the character. So damn good, my brother.
2:15
Speaker 5: I'm over here, like, my boy has issues, not.
2:19
Speaker 1: Just the thing, are you really that good?
2:25
Speaker 5: A little bit more.
2:29
Speaker 1: I have a lot of energy, a lot of energy.
2:31
Speaker 1: I'm an animated person. I like to have fun. And
2:34
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I think I just
2:35
Speaker 1: transmitted the energy into just a negative side, but still
2:38
Speaker 1: kept that energy and kept that animation. Because I didn't
2:40
Speaker 1: want to have the characters still have redeemable qualities. I
2:43
Speaker 1: didn't want him to be one noted and boring.
2:45
Speaker 5: I say, so, this was exciting for you to play.
2:47
Speaker 4: It was evil because because people when people know him personally,
2:51
Speaker 4: I'm like, if you know Julian, you know he a
2:54
Speaker 4: goofy animated person.
2:55
Speaker 3: So when people are so.
2:57
Speaker 4: Believed that you're just this angry person, I'm like, I'm like,
3:00
Speaker 4: what can that like?
3:02
Speaker 6: It's almost like seeing denzil Will be a bad guy
3:04
Speaker 6: in Trinday. Remember that I kept saying, bro, he's the
3:07
Speaker 6: nicest guy ever. He being a bad guy was weird.
3:10
Speaker 6: So when I met you last year and then to
3:12
Speaker 6: see I was like, wow, you did amazing hey, and
3:16
Speaker 6: then he didn't.
3:16
Speaker 4: So so back backstory is that he didn't know about
3:22
Speaker 4: what I knew about what you landed. So when he
3:25
Speaker 4: met you, I'm like, Yo, this is my boy, Julian.
3:27
Speaker 4: He's an actor, but I ain't want to tell him.
3:32
Speaker 5: So he's just like okay together.
3:34
Speaker 6: He's so busy, So you know, I'm over here like okay.
3:36
Speaker 6: And then all of a sudden, I just saw you.
3:37
Speaker 6: I'm walking at the crib. In the crib, hey, I know,
3:42
Speaker 6: I said down.
3:43
Speaker 5: I was like, Yo, that man full of ship.
3:48
Speaker 3: You did a good job.
3:49
Speaker 1: Appreciation.
3:51
Speaker 4: Now, the crazy thing is that a lot of people
3:53
Speaker 4: don't know that you played football in your life.
3:56
Speaker 1: Yes.
3:57
Speaker 3: Yeah, he played football in College of Arkansas.
3:59
Speaker 1: I played for University Arkansas and then I got picked
4:03
Speaker 1: up as a free agent with the tenanc Titans for
4:04
Speaker 1: like five months. Yeah, that's my football get paid. And
4:09
Speaker 1: I did get that experience in the NFL. That's all
4:10
Speaker 1: I needed. I didn't need to have a crazy long
4:13
Speaker 1: tenured experience. I just needed to, you know, to see it,
4:15
Speaker 1: and that's what I did. Thank God for that.
4:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you know, you and the Rock have similar stories.
4:19
Speaker 1: Something like that. That's how you know what I'm saying.
4:23
Speaker 5: Oh, you're headed there, bro, as long as you keep
4:25
Speaker 5: killing the roles.
4:26
Speaker 1: You already know. Bro, I'm just gonntinue to stay humble,
4:29
Speaker 1: keep focusing on God and doing everything I can to
4:31
Speaker 1: be the best I can be.
4:32
Speaker 3: Now and you had a super Bowl commercial?
4:33
Speaker 1: I did? I did? Yes, that was what Circle. You know,
4:37
Speaker 1: it's so crazy. It's the great thing about my life.
4:40
Speaker 1: And the great thing was going on just really was
4:41
Speaker 1: just with the acting, with music and just with football.
4:43
Speaker 1: It's just like everything feeds into one another. With the football,
4:47
Speaker 1: the determination, the hard work that I had to go
4:49
Speaker 1: through in football, it led into my acting career now
4:51
Speaker 1: the acting. I'm doing music now that led into the music.
4:54
Speaker 1: With the super Bowl commercial. I had played in this
4:56
Speaker 1: league called the fx FL, so I cutting from the NFL.
5:01
Speaker 1: Then they created this league for all the people that
5:03
Speaker 1: had got recently cut, the Fall Experimental Football League. And
5:06
Speaker 1: this guy that I played with, I played in Boston
5:09
Speaker 1: for the team called the Boston Brawlers. This guy named
5:11
Speaker 1: Garrett Wagner. He started this company like in twenty eighteen,
5:14
Speaker 1: I really don't know the year, but he started this
5:17
Speaker 1: company called Circle. And then he had a super Bowl
5:20
Speaker 1: spot and he was like, Bro, I got the super
5:22
Speaker 1: Bowl spot. I got That's my daughter's name, Adam Devine,
5:26
Speaker 1: playing the lead. And then we got Peter Berg directing
5:29
Speaker 1: the super Bowl commercial and Peter Burger's I'm a big
5:31
Speaker 1: fan of his because he did Ballers, he did Fight
5:33
Speaker 1: in That Lights, which is one of my favorite movies.
5:35
Speaker 1: So then, Bro, that wasn't even like an audition in process.
5:37
Speaker 1: It was like, Bro, come through, come to la, we
5:40
Speaker 1: got you. And then next thing you know that it
5:41
Speaker 1: aired in the super Bowl and everyone's like, oh, Bro,
5:43
Speaker 1: I just seen you. I just seen you in this
5:45
Speaker 1: easy check just by relationships and.
5:47
Speaker 5: People watched the super.
5:49
Speaker 1: Bowl, Bro, it was crazy. It was crazy. And just
5:51
Speaker 1: by having good relationships, staying cool with people working and
5:54
Speaker 1: seeing that they could trust me and got me that
5:56
Speaker 1: and you know about that, but we can trust you, Bro,
5:58
Speaker 1: that just opens up opportu and he's like crazy and
6:00
Speaker 1: that's just a great thing.
6:02
Speaker 3: And that's another access to actors.
6:04
Speaker 4: I feel like a lot of actors don't understand the
6:07
Speaker 4: art of networking and relationships, and people rely so much
6:10
Speaker 4: on skills set and then they wonder why, Okay, why
6:13
Speaker 4: did this person get this job in this gig? And
6:16
Speaker 4: I'm like, because y'all not building relationships with people, people
6:20
Speaker 4: like hiring people that they.
6:22
Speaker 1: Like that shit. They like you, Bro, and they say
6:25
Speaker 1: they can trust you, and you keep on working hard
6:27
Speaker 1: to because at the end of the day, I've been
6:28
Speaker 1: auditioning for Tyler Paper for six years. Wow, you know

Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I got Bruh in twenty nineteen, had
6:34
Speaker 1: a BT plus so called Bruh. I got that in
6:36

6:40

7:09
Speaker 1: my life.

7:26
Speaker 1: for the audition. I was like, yo, I'm just gonna
7:27
Speaker 1: be the best audition I ever do. Because you know,
7:30
Speaker 1: when I seen that it was Netflix, I was like,
7:33
Speaker 1: I gotta get this part. I gotta get this because
7:36
Speaker 1: I had other movies that I've done, National Champions, the
7:38
Speaker 1: re Educational Molly Singer. They hit Netflix. So both of

Speaker 1: those movies I just named, they both hit theaters. They
7:44
Speaker 1: didn't do well. People didn't see him. I promoted on
7:46
Speaker 1: my social media. Some people saw it. If you really
7:48
Speaker 1: have a close friend of mine, you might have seen it.
7:49
Speaker 1: But most of the people didn't see it. As soon
7:52
Speaker 1: as it hit Netflix, everyone's seen it. Yeah, I see you,

8:03
Speaker 1: you to convenient when they watch movies and they you know,

8:09
Speaker 1: it's like when I see now, so I want to
8:10
Speaker 1: do Netflix. I want to do Netflix. So when I
8:12
Speaker 1: seen Tyler Perry doing Netflix, I was like yo. And
8:16
Speaker 1: then they had this character Roy and I'm like, you
8:20
Speaker 1: know the twenties, like twenty crash out, Wow, he party

Speaker 1: I want him. So then like I do the audition.
8:45
Speaker 1: It's crazy, and then I get a call back like
8:48
Speaker 1: three days later. I'm like, yo, like you're an audition.

Speaker 1: So if you do the math on that, that's not
14:16
Speaker 1: really that much, you know what I'm saying. But it
14:18
Speaker 1: really just takes the one takes the one takes the
14:20
Speaker 1: one and and and to be honest with you, it
14:23
Speaker 1: really has changed my look on acting a little bit too.
14:28
Speaker 1: It's like you're doing a lot of parts, get a
14:31
Speaker 1: lot of roles, and people are and I love people
14:33
Speaker 1: that are chasing their dreams. And I'm always going to
14:35
Speaker 1: tell people to chase their dreams. But then it's crazy
14:37
Speaker 1: because it's like it's almost as if you need to
14:41
Speaker 1: really like really make it and really make the big
14:43
Speaker 1: bucks and really like really start really building your career.
14:45
Speaker 1: You need like a centers, you need a beauty and
14:48
Speaker 1: black and those things are really a fact. And it's
14:51
Speaker 1: just get a struct by lightning. And that's very tough
14:55
Speaker 1: to be in this business, you know what I'm saying.
14:57
Speaker 5: So that's a perfect analogy. It's like getting struct.
15:00
Speaker 1: So this is crazy. You got to think everything. Everything
15:03
Speaker 1: had to add up perfectly. You got to have the
15:05
Speaker 1: character add up. You gotta have the streaming platform add up.
15:07
Speaker 1: You got to have the director add up. We got
15:09
Speaker 1: we talking about Tyler Perry, the biggest black mogul in
15:12
Speaker 1: the game. It might have been someone else. I don't
15:14
Speaker 1: want to watch it, so it's like Tyler Perry. So
15:17
Speaker 1: it's like to have that happened. It's like, and I
15:20
Speaker 1: see my life now. I think about some times, what
15:22
Speaker 1: if I didn't get this part?
15:25
Speaker 4: Would and then and then it'd be like how long
15:27
Speaker 4: would it take when it would be the next time.
15:29
Speaker 1: This is crazy too, because I was like, I'm only
15:31
Speaker 1: thirty three.
15:33
Speaker 5: Somebody has to say you.
15:35
Speaker 1: We talk, We talk about it, and that is crazy,
15:37
Speaker 1: but we talk about that all.
15:39
Speaker 4: The time because we think as humans that we are
15:42
Speaker 4: in control of our destiny, and we really not not.
15:46
Speaker 1: I tell people all the time, this is what, this is,
15:49
Speaker 1: what this is. What really got me through though, is
15:52
Speaker 1: the fact that just like how would your foundation, how
15:55
Speaker 1: is your mind? That's key because my thing, my thing
15:57
Speaker 1: is this the way I think I'm always gonna make it.
16:00
Speaker 1: I always knew I was gonna make it, That's the
16:02
Speaker 1: way I think. But the reason why I was never
16:04
Speaker 1: desperate to make it and the reason why I never
16:07
Speaker 1: yearned for it so much, where it's like I felt
16:08
Speaker 1: desperate to get it, I already knew God's the greatest
16:12
Speaker 1: thing we can get in this life. If you know
16:14
Speaker 1: God's the greatest thing you can get in this life,
16:15
Speaker 1: you don't yarn for nothing. Now you can let things
16:17
Speaker 1: come to you easily and more efficient because they're not
16:20
Speaker 1: so damn. Oh, I gotta get it. I got to
16:21
Speaker 1: get it. Say you know what, when it happens, it happens.
16:23
Speaker 1: And yes, life happens because he still got paid bills.
16:26
Speaker 1: So you gotta work because I'm willing to work. I'm
16:27
Speaker 1: not I'm not. I ain't doing nothing. Know, I'm gonna
16:29
Speaker 1: work and do what it takes to, you know, get
16:31
Speaker 1: money and feed my family and feed and pay my
16:33
Speaker 1: bills and stuff. But it's like my thing has always
16:36
Speaker 1: been already got the greatest thing I can see. If
16:40
Speaker 1: I don't make it, it's okay because I already got
16:42
Speaker 1: the greatest thing I can see. Sure, So if you're
16:44
Speaker 1: not yearning for nothing, things can come to you quicker.
16:46
Speaker 4: Now.
16:46
Speaker 1: You just you just live my life and it's not
16:48
Speaker 1: much pressure. It's's not desperate for nothing. And that's how
16:51
Speaker 1: I lived my life. That's how I've been living my life.
16:53
Speaker 1: And that's why I see my life. And it's like
16:56
Speaker 1: I was four years old when I said I'm gonna
16:57
Speaker 1: play in the NFL, I'm gonna be in movies, I'm
17:00
Speaker 1: act and I'm gonna make music. And it's like be
17:01
Speaker 1: thirty three and it be like doing the ship that
17:04
Speaker 1: I said I was gonna do.
17:05
Speaker 5: It four manifestation.
17:07
Speaker 1: It's just like it's because I had that thought. God
17:08
Speaker 1: is the greatest manifestation is really what it is. Bro
17:11
Speaker 1: She never put pressure on nothing. It happened to happen.
17:14
Speaker 1: It doesn't it doesn't because the end the day, it's
17:15
Speaker 1: like it is what it is, bro.
17:17
Speaker 4: And that's how that's I always felt like, you know,
17:19
Speaker 4: like growing up, like you seen me do parties and
17:22
Speaker 4: do all the stuff that I'm that I'm doing now
17:24
Speaker 4: you know twelve years later and it's just like, man,
17:26
Speaker 4: if this for me is for me. But one thing
17:28
Speaker 4: I was never afraid of is working because I've had
17:31
Speaker 4: multiple jobs and chasing you worked that sprint, man, I
17:35
Speaker 4: worked that sprint.
17:36
Speaker 5: Always complex. I need that, I need that. I had
17:42
Speaker 5: a roommate on me.
17:43
Speaker 4: That's why I never understood why actors who aren't making
17:47
Speaker 4: money sit there and make this a full time job
17:51
Speaker 4: and then they fall on hard times and then it's like,
17:54
Speaker 4: brof it for you. It's gonna be for you, but
17:56
Speaker 4: you still got to figure out a way to make.
17:58
Speaker 1: Money exactly exactly, And at the end of the day,
18:00
Speaker 1: it's like, like I said, that point goes back to the
18:02
Speaker 1: god thing. You might not have it, but at the
18:04
Speaker 1: same time, at least you can be joyful long You've
18:07
Speaker 1: got joy, bro, and your foundation is good. That's all
18:09
Speaker 1: that matters, bro, because at least you can continuously keep
18:11
Speaker 1: living life with your head up and keep smiling bro
18:14
Speaker 1: through it all, because like I said, it is tough
18:16
Speaker 1: out here, bro, especially now twenty twenty five. But it's
18:19
Speaker 1: so saturated. Like you just said, why can't He's made
18:22
Speaker 1: it right and she made it, bro, and that's great.
18:23
Speaker 1: I love that for it. But think about everyone trying
18:25
Speaker 1: to make it. Everybody that's in line, it's like talked
18:28
Speaker 1: about it, and like your pocket, like your podcast last year,
18:30
Speaker 1: like everyone trying to be a podcaster.
18:32
Speaker 3: Everybody trying to be a podcast.
18:34
Speaker 1: So saturated.
18:35
Speaker 5: Everything, Everything is oversaturated, bro.
18:37
Speaker 3: Everything.
18:38
Speaker 1: That's why I'm so grateful because y'all got the position.
18:41
Speaker 1: Grateful bro, And.
18:42
Speaker 4: Think about every think about how many people you passed
18:45
Speaker 4: just with one role, man, and everybody's looking at.
18:48
Speaker 6: You, like, now.
18:53
Speaker 5: Okay, before we go, though, has your phone rang for something.
18:59
Speaker 1: That's so crazy? It hasn't. Really, Okay, I've gotten. Like
19:02
Speaker 1: the great thing about it is once you book a
19:04
Speaker 1: show like this, now it's okay you the bchlon. Now
19:08
Speaker 1: everything you auditioned the top of the top. Everyone is
19:12
Speaker 1: the top of the movies, top shows and things of
19:14
Speaker 1: that nature. Because now you really can't go backwards. I mean,
19:17
Speaker 1: you can work if it was the right script and
19:19
Speaker 1: the right you know circumstances of course, but at the
19:21
Speaker 1: same time, with my agents and things of the natures,
19:24
Speaker 1: they want to keep on.
19:25
Speaker 3: Yeah, we don't want to go back. We want to
19:26
Speaker 3: go forward.
19:27
Speaker 1: Keep it answered.
19:27
Speaker 5: Speaking of that, that watch looks really good on you.
19:29
Speaker 1: That's exactly. It looks great.
19:32
Speaker 6: Looks on top of the other accident A four G,
19:35
Speaker 6: a Rex by the way, and traditional housing. We got
19:38
Speaker 6: about seven of those one time for the Faith Project.
19:40
Speaker 6: You're not talking about.
19:41
Speaker 1: You know what I'm doing because you know I do
19:42
Speaker 1: music as well, right, Yeah, and I produce. So even
19:45
Speaker 1: this Friday, right, I said, you know what if if
19:50
Speaker 1: people are not going to hire an efficient rate that
19:52
Speaker 1: I want them to hire and take this resources that
19:56
Speaker 1: Tyler Perry's allowed you to have Netflix and make your
19:58
Speaker 1: own self. So even with the music I put out
20:00
Speaker 1: the music video that's dropping Friday, go ahead, busted on
20:03
Speaker 1: my artist Deimo and Erica Banks. I'm getting my acting off.
20:07

20:09
Speaker 1: if it's every video that I want to put out
20:11
Speaker 1: gonna have a movie element to it.
20:13
Speaker 3: Every video.
20:14
Speaker 5: I'm smart, yeah, because because like bro, you know, I'm big.

Speaker 1: I'm an athletic. We gonna make you just the romantic,
20:25
Speaker 1: cheating boyfriend. It's like, Bro, I can do a lot
20:27
Speaker 1: more than that, and I'm athletic. I like to be
20:29
Speaker 1: in some action stuff too, you know.
20:30
Speaker 5: But I'm a so you're gonna use the video.
20:33
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a bounty hunter, the music guy, be
20:36
Speaker 1: a war general. Do this at the end of the day.
20:38
Speaker 1: Now people can see you in different lights now because
20:39
Speaker 1: the end of the day, they already might have in
20:41
Speaker 1: their head like, you know, he's in the you know,
20:42
Speaker 1: he's in the urban world. When they start seeing out
20:44
Speaker 1: of other like other roles and things of that nature,
20:46
Speaker 1: they can start being like, oh, you know, I actually
20:48
Speaker 1: can see him playing and I can't and kill two
20:52
Speaker 1: birds with one stone. And then the artists that you know,
20:55
Speaker 1: I'm working with, they can get their shine on because
20:56
Speaker 1: it's their music, is their song, and at the end
20:58
Speaker 1: of the day, I get out there because it's my beat,
21:00
Speaker 1: and so it's like it's hitting on all cylinders. Bro,
21:03
Speaker 1: taking advantage of the moment.
21:04
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like that you're doing that because I feel
21:06
Speaker 4: like even when Michael B. Jordan's first started with his
21:09
Speaker 4: career Fruitville Station, they tried to box him in, Yeah,
21:12
Speaker 4: just because of the type of role that he played.
21:14
Speaker 4: And I remember I saw an interview with him what
21:17
Speaker 4: he was telling his agents, like, nah, I want to
21:18
Speaker 4: go out the doe to total opposite roles that we're
21:21
Speaker 4: going after because I don't want them to try to
21:23
Speaker 4: put me in a box of the type.
21:25
Speaker 3: This is the type of you know, type casting is
21:27
Speaker 3: what they call.
21:27
Speaker 1: Bro facts and ownership is key. If you can take
21:29
Speaker 1: control of your career, Bro, you gotta take control of it.
21:32
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm doing right now with the music,
21:33
Speaker 1: with the acting and just like implementing my acting and
21:35
Speaker 1: everything that I do TikTok social media, taking advantage.
21:39
Speaker 3: You definitely taken advantage of. Yeah, you're doing You're doing
21:41
Speaker 3: your things.
21:42
Speaker 1: Bought Chris lofton from Power the other day, Like, Bro,

21:57
Speaker 1: here just to honor Guy's investment. That's all I care.
22:00
Speaker 1: I don't care about the material stuff. I don't care
22:02
Speaker 1: about the tangible things that you can get in life.
22:03
Speaker 1: I don't want to be superior to anybody. I just
22:06
Speaker 1: want someone to say, you know what, nigga, you did
22:07
Speaker 1: a great job after you don't what that that Seawan
22:11
Speaker 1: was great. That's all I care about. So I'm with
22:13
Speaker 1: the people. I'm in the comments. Feel like Roy you
22:15
Speaker 1: here again, I don't care. I'm being the comments. Bro.
22:17
Speaker 1: I'm chilling with the people, bro. And they like that
22:19
Speaker 1: though it's a relatability because it's like they don't think
22:24
Speaker 1: that people could. It's so used to people like you
22:25
Speaker 1: know what, you know going off to the sunset. I'm
22:27
Speaker 1: not doing that, Bro. I'm here to change lives and
22:30
Speaker 1: use my platform to just if I can change one
22:33
Speaker 1: person's like bro, with some positivity, with something that God's
22:35
Speaker 1: getting me. Bro, I'm gonna do that, and at the
22:37
Speaker 1: end of the day, I'm gonna keep on doing that
22:38
Speaker 1: and be with the people, bro, because that's what matters
22:41
Speaker 1: to me. Bro. We all leave in this earth one day.
22:43
Speaker 3: Bro, that's a fact.
22:44
Speaker 1: We're here in the finite amount of time. So if
22:46
Speaker 1: your life you're not changing people's lives, what are we doing?
22:48
Speaker 1: For real? It's not about getting the money, it's not
22:50
Speaker 1: about getting the riches. It's about changing people's lives, bro,
22:53
Speaker 1: and using the love to change that. So that's what
22:55
Speaker 1: I'm trying to do, bro with everything.
22:56
Speaker 4: Now, last question, Now, you went viral on TikTok at
23:00
Speaker 4: Chris Brown concert and you was.
23:03
Speaker 3: Looking mad as hell? What was you thinking about?
23:07
Speaker 1: Bro? You know, everyone keeps asking me that. I think
23:10
Speaker 1: it was because like girls kept asking for drinks. That's
23:13
Speaker 1: what I think it was. I think it was like
23:14
Speaker 1: the fiftieth shot and I just kept they kept give
23:16
Speaker 1: another shot, another shot, and I was just tired of
23:19
Speaker 1: them and like this, and I was just like tired
23:23
Speaker 1: of it and I'll just sit there and then and
23:25
Speaker 1: then yeah, that was that was it. But it was
23:28
Speaker 1: good though. First of all, it was funny. They got me,
23:30
Speaker 1: You got me. Whoever took that video, you got me.
23:32
Speaker 1: But it was perfect timing because me then Black just
23:34
Speaker 1: dropped in the video just dropped the same time. Can't
23:39
Speaker 1: pay for it. That's what's crazy about social media. It's like,
23:42
Speaker 1: now I'm seeing that, Okay, if I could make them
23:46
Speaker 1: fans of me, they're gonna rock with whatever I put
23:48
