Transcript
- 0:01Speaker 1: So very interesting.
- 0:03Speaker 2: Things are just kind of all around the Save Act
- 0:08Speaker 2: and I said, this isn't about saving our election.
- 0:11Speaker 1: It's not about election.
- 0:12Speaker 2: To take away the truth of the matter is, we're
- 0:14Speaker 2: probably one of the only countries in the world who
- 0:16Speaker 2: decided not to modernize our election because of the invested interests.
- 0:20Speaker 1: In people not being able to vote.
- 0:22Speaker 2: We wanted to make it as cumbersome as possible because
- 0:25Speaker 2: everybody knows that if everybody vote voted, Republican will never win.
- 0:30Speaker 1: They know it too.
- 0:31Speaker 2: They know it too. That's why they make it harder
- 0:33Speaker 2: and they're fixing a problem that we never had. The
- 0:37Speaker 2: Save Act is because the Save Your Ass actors what
- 0:41Speaker 2: she we be called. You're actually right, because that's exactly
- 0:44Speaker 2: what they're doing. They're trying to save the asses. They
- 0:46Speaker 2: know that they have been so criminal that the slightest introspection,
- 0:54Speaker 2: the slightest introspecting, would would result if the slightest look
- 0:58Speaker 2: under the hood is going to find out.
- 1:00Speaker 3: What's happening, yeah, or the fact that they want to
- 1:02Speaker 3: get well, you think about it the same.
- 1:04Speaker 4: I don't know what it's saving.
- 1:05Speaker 3: The fact that you know they're saying that if you
- 1:07Speaker 3: have a different last name than the one on your
- 1:09Speaker 3: blood certificates, such as, but the women who've got married
- 1:12Speaker 3: or in your situation won't be able to vote.
- 1:14Speaker 4: They're trying to give.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Yeah, you have a you're.
- 1:18Speaker 4: Trying to get rid of mail in voting as well.
- 1:20Speaker 5: Just it's just crazy, just trying to say we just
- 1:23Speaker 5: only want white dudes to vote. I want to just
- 1:25Speaker 5: say that, that's exactly just say it. But it's gonna

- 2:54Speaker 2: the ged section. It's the deal, huge show. Jazz Man,
- 3:01Speaker 2: what manned Well?
- 3:04Speaker 3: I mean, since we're talking about Usher, we may as
- 3:06Speaker 3: well go away to get this one out of the way.
- 3:07Speaker 3: He's catching a lot of heat on social media, and
- 3:09Speaker 3: not for Justin Bieber, but for the fact that he
- 3:11Speaker 3: was doing an interview and he said, didd he is
- 3:13Speaker 3: his mentor, and he was like, I I you don't
- 3:16Speaker 3: have anything negative to say about him? Because my experience
- 3:18Speaker 3: with him is nothing like what I've heard. It's nothing
- 3:21Speaker 3: like I've seen, So I don't I don't have.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Even a serial killer got friends. He does, I guarantee you,
- 3:26Speaker 2: and he can kill everybody. Yeah, he didn't bless that.
- 3:29Speaker 3: We talked about how much he's done for the black community,
- 3:31Speaker 3: the hip hop community and all those things. He was like, man,
- 3:33Speaker 3: so outside that I don't have anything I say.
- 3:36Speaker 2: I don't know why somebody's begrudging someone their own individual experience.
- 3:41Speaker 2: It's just like people can say what they want about
- 3:43Speaker 2: Bill Cosby. I think Bill Cosby was integral and the
- 3:45Speaker 2: fact that so many black women who are the black
- 3:47Speaker 2: woman the most educated segment of out society, and I
- 3:49Speaker 2: think it was a different world and his creative vision
- 3:52Speaker 2: to help him do that.
- 3:53Speaker 1: I think if it weren't for well.
- 3:55Speaker 4: I also think you could be due on mind it.
- 3:56Speaker 4: You could do two things. You could be a bad person.
- 3:58Speaker 2: From all day long. And I think that you know,
- 4:01Speaker 2: he put a lot of people to school. I think
- 4:03Speaker 2: that Diddy was integral. He made a lot of careers
- 4:06Speaker 2: and a lot of people got rich. Yeah, I just
- 4:08Speaker 2: said stay away from the baby or in the drinks.
- 4:15Speaker 3: Well, his exact quote was, I can't with any sense
- 4:18Speaker 3: of humanity not recognize the valuable contributions this man made
- 4:22Speaker 3: for us as black entrepreneurs, for us as businessmen, for
- 4:25Speaker 3: us as a people who transitioned culture and ideas into
- 4:28Speaker 3: something that's tangible and become hum.
- 4:30Speaker 1: It was very much the culture.
- 4:31Speaker 5: So take that, take that, Take that, Take that, and
- 4:34Speaker 5: speaking to take that, Jay Z is taking that.
- 4:36Speaker 3: His show in New York that someone in here wants
- 4:39Speaker 3: to go. So today sold out in five minutes, so
- 4:43Speaker 3: he added a third show of course, probably gonna be
- 4:45Speaker 3: sold be I saw where tickets were already reselling for
- 4:49Speaker 3: his high as twelve thousand dollars.
- 4:51Speaker 4: For those bleed seats get out of here, twelve grand.
- 4:54Speaker 1: I'm just gonna just play the blueprint.
- 4:56Speaker 3: But this is why the remember the whole case about
- 5:00Speaker 3: Live Nation and the tickets and all before.
- 5:02Speaker 4: Yep, yep, yeah, this would have been come in handy,
- 5:04Speaker 4: but that's what.
- 5:06Speaker 1: The TV show.
- 5:06Speaker 4: I'll wait for that.
- 5:08Speaker 1: Yeah. Yes, indeed, I'm sure you are watching history.
- 5:12Speaker 2: What has always happened, what tends to happen is you
- 5:14Speaker 2: will see a Republican administration drive this country of Financalcliff
- 5:19Speaker 2: uh and a democratic administration will come in and fix it,
- 5:22Speaker 2: and then we'll forget all about how it happened. It
- 5:25Speaker 2: happened with George Bush and Clinton. It happened with George
- 5:30Speaker 2: Bush and Obama. It happened with Trump and Biden with
- 5:34Speaker 2: something with the actions of their.
- 5:36Speaker 1: Own drive us off the cliff.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Whether it's a more mortgage crisis or in Ron or
- 5:41Speaker 2: the mishandling of COVID, they drive us off a financial cliff.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Democratic administration fixes it, only to do it again. The
- 5:48Speaker 2: last time, you could say that that it was COVID
- 5:52Speaker 2: doing the last Trump administration, but this time it is
- 5:55Speaker 2: clearly all his doing. It is the decisions that he
- 5:57Speaker 2: has made. We are thirty nine. We have a thirty
- 6:01Speaker 2: nine trillion dollar deficit that is one hundred and twenty
- 6:04Speaker 2: percent of our gross domestic product. Our munitions that we
- 6:09Speaker 2: count on to defend this country, Tomahawk missiles and the like,
- 6:13Speaker 2: are depleted.
- 6:15Speaker 1: They're low.
- 6:16Speaker 2: It will take decades to restock, it will take decades
- 6:19Speaker 2: to rebuild that. Where our strategic ore reserves are at
- 6:23Speaker 2: a forty year low. We are in a country right
- 6:26Speaker 2: now where gas is rising and also groceries are rising,
- 6:31Speaker 2: where the unemployment rate is getting high.
- 6:33Speaker 1: Where a nation that is.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Currently in the midst of its second shutdown in less
- 6:38Speaker 2: than six months, causing of people at the airports and
- 6:42Speaker 2: making air travel less safe. Where nation right now, with
- 6:46Speaker 2: the president of the United States of America, has started
- 6:48Speaker 2: a war with no end in sight and for no
- 6:51Speaker 2: earthly reason. We can't tell why we're there and how
- 6:54Speaker 2: long we're going to be there. We're also a nation
- 6:56Speaker 2: was led by a man who has been mentioned in
- 6:59Speaker 2: the files thirty eight thousand, five hundred times. I say
- 7:04Speaker 2: this that the Trump presidency has been so disastrous. It
- 7:08Speaker 2: has been called so much tumult and upheaval, not just
- 7:11Speaker 2: in this country, around the world. I think that America
- 7:14Speaker 2: should never be able to elect a white dude president
- 7:17Speaker 2: of the United States ever again, because I guarantee you
- 7:20Speaker 2: if that if he were a black guy and I
- 7:22Speaker 2: had a record that bad, that is exactly what they
- 7:25Speaker 2: would be saying. I'm telling he's such a president that
- 7:29Speaker 2: no other white guy should get hide in a close
- 7:32Speaker 2: hide her hair next to the White House ever.
- 7:34Speaker 1: Again.
- 7:35Speaker 2: That's a little note from the ged sections the Del
- 7:38Speaker 2: Hugley show.
- 7:38Speaker 1: She's Jazz.
- 7:42Speaker 4: It's the Jesse Report on the d L.
- 7:45Speaker 3: Hughley Shun Airports across the country could soon close their
- 7:49Speaker 3: doors as the government shutdown has brought on the highest
- 7:52Speaker 3: security wait times in decades. Air chaos has reached an
- 7:57Speaker 3: intense breaking point in recent weeks, with more than four
- 8:00Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty TSA officers quitting and calling out
- 8:03Speaker 3: during the shutdown now obviously because they're not getting paid.
- 8:07Speaker 3: Nearly fifty percent of the staff at Houston's Hobby Airport
- 8:11Speaker 3: called off Monday.
- 8:13Speaker 2: What are you gonna fire you from a job they're
- 8:14Speaker 2: not paying you for? The're gonna write you up for
- 8:16Speaker 2: a job they ain't paying for.
- 8:18Speaker 4: I mean I get paid med. You're pretty much already.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Yeah, doctor paid.
- 8:22Speaker 2: It used to be a time when you were forced
- 8:23Speaker 2: to work for free by the government. It was called
- 8:27Speaker 2: it was called slavery. Now it's just called TSA and
- 8:31Speaker 2: an employer, a private EMPLOYEEFE. Did that you sue the
- 8:33Speaker 2: pans they're under this administration that the the government UH
- 8:38Speaker 2: working for the federal government has been a nightmare. The
- 8:42Speaker 2: people people fired without cause, uh, people being released and
- 8:46Speaker 2: the positions taken away. They have made a debacca backle
- 8:50Speaker 2: of this, and the federal government used to be a
- 8:54Speaker 2: great place to work.
- 8:55Speaker 3: You are already said, and I would imagine how you know, irritating.
- 8:58Speaker 3: It must be an an and make you very angry
- 9:01Speaker 3: watching other people who are getting paid alongside you as
- 9:04Speaker 3: they're doing nothing and you're not getting paid for a
- 9:07Speaker 3: job that you try for, you worked hard for. And
- 9:09Speaker 3: now someone else who I saw an image of two
- 9:12Speaker 3: teenage kids and in ice clothing working at an airport.
- 9:16Speaker 4: They couldn't have been more than fifteen, sixteen years old.
- 9:18Speaker 2: Yeah, that's crazy, and you know they have a bigger
- 9:21Speaker 2: budget in the United States Marine Corps.
- 9:24Speaker 4: I tell you one thing.
- 9:24Speaker 3: Leanna and I were having this conversation over the weekend
- 9:26Speaker 3: when she brought this up to me, and I was like,
- 9:28Speaker 3: if you think about the domino effect of that, there
- 9:29Speaker 3: are so many people who travel for business. Imagine a
- 9:32Speaker 3: strain that is putting on you and companies who need
- 9:36Speaker 3: salespeople who are out there marketing reps, who are out
- 9:38Speaker 3: there to continue their business.
- 9:40Speaker 4: I can imagine the strain they're under.
- 9:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm telling you it's you know, I'll tell you
- 9:44Speaker 2: some of the things I do to get around it
- 9:46Speaker 2: a little bit.
- 9:46Speaker 3: Tell me. Yeah, so listen, they have a scientists have
- 9:52Speaker 3: created an electronic nose that can sniff out chemicals on
- 9:55Speaker 3: your breath to help spot early signs of esophageal cancer,
- 9:59Speaker 3: which can be to acid reflux. Uh they use a breathalyzer. Uh, well,
- 10:04Speaker 3: it looks like a breathalyzer anyway. And what it does
- 10:06Speaker 3: it is identify patterns of compounds that are found in
- 10:08Speaker 3: the breath that are unique to this particular condition and
- 10:12Speaker 3: then they have to stick a long don't make fun
- 10:15Speaker 3: of this along too, with the camera at the end
- 10:17Speaker 3: of it down your throat to improve the diagnosis of
- 10:20Speaker 3: this cancer.
- 10:21Speaker 2: No, no, that's not cancer any breathes. So yeah, basically
- 10:29Speaker 2: all right, thank you for that, Jazzy. So we know
- 10:32Speaker 2: that Meta and Instagram were sued. Do you think the
- 10:37Speaker 2: company is responsible for what minors c or should the
- 10:41Speaker 2: parents be? You think that the social media companies, the
- 10:45Speaker 2: people on social media Mega Giant should should be responsible
- 10:48Speaker 2: for monitoring what kids have access to it?
- 10:51Speaker 1: Should it be the parents?
- 10:52Speaker 2: So, of course Meta and Instagram were sued and they
- 10:55Speaker 2: were they found libel they lost. Do you think that
- 11:00Speaker 2: who's more responsible for monitoring what your wi, your minor
- 11:04Speaker 2: child sees it? Should it be the parents? Or should
- 11:07Speaker 2: it be social media platforms? Uh, that's the question. We're
- 11:09Speaker 2: gonna post you. We're gonna go to a social media
- 11:11Speaker 2: platform and see what they're saying out there. We're talking
- 11:13Speaker 2: to social on social media about social media. So what
- 11:16Speaker 2: are they say? So we got Percival from the person
- 11:22Speaker 2: you know, he gone. Percival says, at the end of
- 11:25Speaker 2: the day, the parents control everything.
- 11:27Speaker 1: So the parents.
- 11:29Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I find it. I found that ironic. Uh
- 11:33Speaker 2: so I think that obviously you could be the best.
- 11:38Speaker 2: I mean, Jeffrey Dahmer had parents that loved them. They
- 11:41Speaker 2: just never checked the refrigerator.
- 11:45Speaker 1: What's that smell? Is that hoghead?
- 11:48Speaker 3: Chee?
- 11:54Speaker 1: Do you think you was? What's in here? Yeah? Is
- 12:01Speaker 1: that a? Sure? Is that a? Is that an ox sale?
- 12:05Speaker 1: It is not, you know, it's not.
- 12:08Speaker 4: The biggest wing I ever.
- 12:11Speaker 1: This wing gotta tattoo. Listen. Do you think who you
- 12:16Speaker 1: think is responsible?
- 12:17Speaker 2: Should it be the social media companies or should it
- 12:20Speaker 2: be the parents? That is going to be the question
- 12:22Speaker 2: that we posted you eight seven seven two four two
