  Speaker 1: they were.

  Speaker 2: You know, when I grew up, we used to have
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: a lot of, even here, we had a lot of
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: creeks and stuff where I grew up in L.A. And
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: it had a bunch of crawdads. So we would have crawdads.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: And what happened was nobody believed me. And they Googled

  Speaker 2: a bunch of crawdads go.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: And now we have.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: We didn't really eat a lot of them. Like the
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: country ass people that were from Louisiana and Texas, they did.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, they would go get them. They call it
• 1:42

  Speaker 1: We did.

• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: And they would go get book and then they would
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: just boil them and they'd be sitting. I'm like, man,
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: I'm not eating. That just came from a ditch.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: But they would eat it. That's where I was going.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: I didn't like them when I was little, but when
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: I grew up, I loved them. Yeah, I like them now.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: I only like the tail, which is pretty much the truth.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: That's all life for me.

  Speaker 2: You get all the details. Jasmine Sanders. Tell these people
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: what's trending.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: Well, I know we talked about debuting Kirk Franklin's new project, which,
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: you know, I'm a huge fan of Kirk Franklin, but
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: I saw he caught some.
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: You are.
• 3:30
  Speaker 6: I am.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I like Kirk Franklin. I like Kirk Franklin, too. He's
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: a cool guy.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: He's down to earth and stomp. Anyway, he faced a
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: little bit of criticism. I don't know what's going on
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: on social media, but anyway, they were upset at him.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: Check this out. You know why? Because he prayed over
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Chris Brown and Usher. Isn't that the craziest thing you've
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: ever heard?
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. They can't have prayer?
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: What's the matter?
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know.
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: They felt like he shouldn't be praying with Chris Brown
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: and certainly not Usher and at that particular concert because
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: he's supposed to be a Christian.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: That's what you're supposed to do. That's where you're supposed
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: to go. Aren't people supposed to pray for the sinner?
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: Thank you.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: But that's what he said. He said, you know, a
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: lot of times people don't come to you. You have
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: to go to them. Even Jesus did that.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: I mean it.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: I don't think you went to a Chris Brown or
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: Usher concert. I think you're.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: Stretching the scripture a bit.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: I don't know, but if you look at Mary Magdalene's history, well,
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I'm going to see Meshack, Shadrach, and Abednego. You with it?
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Somebody tell Joseph to meet us there. How about a
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: fabulous hop-up?
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Anyway, also trending this El Nino.
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you guys have been following this,
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: but when I tell you, I know that everybody, even
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: Governor Gavin Newsom has already filed a state of emergency
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: for California based on what they think might happen. But
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: they say thousands of people, almost half a million people,
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: they are estimating will die because of El Nino.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Well, not just in America. No, no, of course. That's
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: what I mean.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: I mean, not just here, but just, you know, the
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: fact that everyone is getting ready. Certainly California, but also
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: cities all across the country are preparing for this major, major,
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: massive storm. They say it's going to have a major
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: effect all through the winter and all kinds of stuff.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: I'm like, damn, El Nino, who pissed you off?
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but a lot of $ 10 homes falling.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: You can't kick out all the Mexicans. And I wonder
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: why El Nino's coming. Oh, exactly.
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: You also know that stop all of these policies regarding
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: climate change.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: And, you know, can we redirect it to Mar-a-Lago?
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Can we actually track hurricane patterns and actually, you know,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: start from where we were picked up as slaves and
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: go through everywhere.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: So there's some to it. I think so. Do it.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Me too. She's jazz.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: It's the Jazzy Report on the D.L.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Hughley Show.
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: A federal judge ordered the USDA to restore $ 127 million
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: in grants canceled earlier in the year, temporarily returning funding
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: to 24 organizations that support black and underserved farmers. The
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: program was designed to help farmers gain access to land,
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: financial resources and markets. The USDA argued that the cancellations
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: were linked to concerns about management, waste and policy priorities.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: What they did was try to be mean to. That's
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: exactly what they do. So good.
• 6:24
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: So good. Right.
• 6:25
  Speaker 4: A new anti-hormonal treatment may slow tumor growth and spread
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: in women with a common form of breast cancer. Researchers
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: say patients treated with the drug for nearly two weeks
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: in its early stages had an 80% lower level of
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: a protein that is produced when breast cancer cells divide, grow,
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: and spread.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Yes. More science. More science. I love medical technology.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Absolutely.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, indeed.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Yes, indeed. Coming up, ladies and gentlemen, we've had some
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: great callers this weekend.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: If you missed them, do not worry. It is What
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: It Happened Was Friday.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: It is the D.L. Hughley Show. Tuesday, What It Happened Was.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Travel influencer Dr. Peaches asked this question.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: All right, y'all, I got to jump in on this conversation.
• 7:04
  Speaker 7: So the people want to know, would you take $ 50, 000
• 7:08
  Speaker 7: a month and not have to work again? You just
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: get paid. Or keep your same job right now and
• 7:14
  Speaker 7: you make $ 500, 000 a month. Which would you do?
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Me personally, I'm taking $ 50, 000 a month. I don't want
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: to work.
• 7:20
  Speaker 7: I think the people who say they want to keep
• 7:22
  Speaker 7: working to make $ 500K, I don't understand your logic. Some
• 7:25
  Speaker 7: people are saying, well, if you work, you stack your money,
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: you can retire. Bro, if I'm making $ 50K a month
• 7:31
  Speaker 7: not working, I'm retired.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: And we asked you the same one. Which one are
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: you taking? We got your calls. We asked you that question.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: You said this.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: I would actually, first of all, my name is Leroy.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: I'm calling from Atlanta. I would actually take the $ 500, 000
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: due to the fact that I could invest that into
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: life insurance policies and things of that nature and make
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: more money and still keep working. I would do the
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: investments due to the fact that it will make more
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: money over the long run, plus you'll never run out
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: of money. Even though the $ 50, 000 sounds good, that $ 500, 000
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: works better because with an investment of life insurance, like
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: a IUL, you know, index universal life. And if they
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: keep paying you tax free money for the rest of
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: your life, you're always going to be smart about it.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: If there's certain people just, they don't understand what they're
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: saying out their mouth. So we've got the 50,000 and
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: never have to work. Why would I want 600,000? I
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: can get 6 million plus more with this investment and
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: for the rest of my life. And it's a legacy
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: builder for my children's children's children.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: I'm already a senior, but I do work part-time. And
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: if somebody offered me $ 50, 000 a month and not to
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: ever work again, I'm going to take that $ 50, 000 and
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: I'm already retired and I'm going to vacation and enjoy
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: the remaining of my years. Because if you take the
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: $ 500, 000 and go to work, you ain't going to do
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: no work. So you might as well just take the
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: $ 50, 000 and just call it a day. That's the best advice,
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: I think, because you're not going to do no work,
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: even if you do go to work with $ 50, 000, $ 500, 000
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: a month. So I'm going to take the $ 50, 000 and
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: call it a day and enjoy the remaining of my years.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Me, personally, I would still continue to work and make
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: that $ 500K. I love what I do, and.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: I feel like what I do serves purpose every day,
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: and I genuinely love people, and I work in healthcare,
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: and I feel like the world lacks a lot of
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: that care part in the healthcare world, so I would
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: continue to work.
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: I am definitely taking the $ 50K and not working. That's it,
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: because my lifestyle does not require me to use $ 50, 000
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: every month.
• 9:43
  Speaker 7: So I have my freedom, and I'll still be able to.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Do anything I want to do.
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: I can use.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: The $ 500, 000 a month, but I don't want to work.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: So I was glad to take the $ 50, 000 and not work.
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: Since the question is being posed in a way that
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: they want everybody to answer it in the first person...
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: in the first person, that being me, I'm keeping my
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: job and getting $ 500, 000 a month. My job contributes well
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: to the economy. If I can get $ 500, 000 a month
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: to do my job, I'm doing my job as long
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: as I can. I have more money to kick back
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: to my offsprings, which will give me more money to
• 10:16
  Speaker 6: kick back to their offsprings, offsprings, offsprings. And I contribute
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: more to the tax base because I'm going to be
• 10:22
  Speaker 6: paying more in taxes and still getting more. After I
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: pay that money in taxes, then the person is getting
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: 50 grand a month and just quits working and not
• 10:29
  Speaker 6: contributing to the tax base anymore, except for as a consumer,
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: because they're not working.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: Man, what kind of fool would pass up on that?
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: I would take the 500K just because I work for
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: myself so I can make my own hours. I would
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: definitely take the 500K just because I can make my hours.
