Speaker 1: it's all about you and guests, and how does it feel?
0:26
Speaker 1: You know, it's surreal knowing that I have to go in.
0:30
Speaker 1: It's a level of responsibility I never thought I would
0:33
Speaker 1: have because I'm used to for all the stuff that
0:36
Speaker 1: I do. Is what Barbara Walters used to do. I
0:38
Speaker 1: didn't appreciate her until having my own show. She would
0:42
Speaker 1: go to all of the affiliates. Every week. I go
0:44
Speaker 1: visit affiliates. I hope babies, I kiss babies, I smile
0:48
Speaker 1: at you know, I laugh at jokes that I go, Okay,
0:51
Speaker 1: I guess you didn't told that joke twelve years to everybody.
0:54
Speaker 1: I gotta let you know. And so it's a lot
0:56
Speaker 1: of stuff that I'm doing. It's meetings NonStop, and I
1:00
Speaker 1: I'm not used to that of being that part of
1:02
Speaker 1: because you get the glory and you also get it
1:04
Speaker 1: if it if it don't go. So it's like going
1:07
Speaker 1: to get rising up to that occasion. But it's good. Well,
1:10
Speaker 1: first of all, how are you because he's so rude,
1:13
Speaker 1: how are you doing. I'm a little for Clint right
1:15
Speaker 1: now because I'm so I try to get it together
1:18
Speaker 1: because I ran into Angela uh And and Tiffany Cross.
1:22
Speaker 1: It is Angela's name. I'm so like embarrassed. I can't
1:28
Speaker 1: even like im. So I'm trying to get my groove bag. Man,
1:32
Speaker 1: this is a woman like I am such a fan
1:35
Speaker 1: of Angela Ry. I love Tiffany Cross. They tell it
1:39
Speaker 1: like it is like I'm like super fan. And as
1:41
Speaker 1: soon as they walked past me, I walked out the
1:45
Speaker 1: door and I said to Angela Ry, Hey, oh my gosh,
1:51
Speaker 1: what April did you think she was? I just in
1:53
Speaker 1: my hand. I was just thinking about April Ry and
1:58
Speaker 1: I got facial blindness anyway, I'm horrible with names. I
2:02
Speaker 1: have facial blindness, which is called prosopagnosia. So like when
2:05
Speaker 1: I look at your face, envy, it's just the face.
2:07
Speaker 1: It's the nose, its lips, there's no distinguishing. I did
2:11
Speaker 1: not just get an I'm not sure. Well, that's how
2:16
Speaker 1: I remember Envy's We were always doing that exactly what.
2:24
Speaker 1: I have polyps in my nose that remove the polyps
2:27
Speaker 1: so I could breathe better and stop snort. That's too
2:29
Speaker 1: that's too much to try to remember to remember, just
2:31
Speaker 1: to remember the polyps in his nose. He had to
2:34
Speaker 1: get the polyps remember, So if they can't even take
2:37
Speaker 1: too long, you're gonna be gone by the time I
2:38
Speaker 1: say it works. Envy with the nose jobs, See how
2:41
Speaker 1: quick that is? Exactly? Yeah? Se you doing that because
2:46
Speaker 1: he loves you so much. I doubt that. Did you
2:50
Speaker 1: feel like Wendy's shoes were too big to feel? Well?
2:54
Speaker 1: I think so, I think her. I think she we
2:56
Speaker 1: didn't even wear the same size shoes. So I don't
3:00
Speaker 1: say yes. I think I'm asking a practical way. Yeah, yes,
3:10
Speaker 1: Jesus you were you were you afraid of that in anyway?
3:14
Speaker 1: Afraid of that? Damn I'm talking about I'm not talking
3:18
Speaker 1: about because I think you start getting afraid when you
3:23
Speaker 1: start comparing yourself to other people and you can't. That's
3:26
Speaker 1: where you get into trouble. You can't compare yourself to
3:29
Speaker 1: other people. Otherwise I would have been terrified when Star
3:32
Speaker 1: when I had to take over Star Jones's place on
3:34
Speaker 1: the View. And the one thing that I loved is
3:36
Speaker 1: Star Jones called me. I was working on thirty Rock
3:38
Speaker 1: at the time. Uh, and she called me to congratulate me,
3:42
Speaker 1: and she says, don't try to fill my shoes, because
3:44
Speaker 1: you will never fill my shoes. And she said, you
3:47
Speaker 1: have to go on with your own experience, your own eyes,
3:50
Speaker 1: and make these your memories. And she said, so I'm
3:52
Speaker 1: not gonna tell you about who to watch out for.
3:55
Speaker 1: You have to go in and get the lay of
3:57
Speaker 1: the land. And I appreciated that. So me doing what
4:00
Speaker 1: I do. I am a stand up comic, I have
4:03
Speaker 1: a I know what God called me to do. I
4:05
Speaker 1: have a faith. I'm really about a lot of positivity.
4:09
Speaker 1: So I knew that's what I do. If I if
4:11
Speaker 1: I based my career off trying to compare myself to
4:14
Speaker 1: other people, I still be struggling. You speak to Wendy.
4:18
Speaker 1: Did you get a chance to talk to Wendy When No,
4:21
Speaker 1: I didn't get a chance to talk to you. I
4:23
Speaker 1: didn't get a chance to talk to you, Charlotte May.
4:26
Speaker 1: I didn't get a chance to talk to my Aunteacha Couitsia,
4:29
Speaker 1: I know. So there were certain people that I got
4:31
Speaker 1: a chance to talk to. It was Oprah Winfrey. Whoopie
4:35
Speaker 1: was in Italy, so I didn't get to talk to
4:36
Speaker 1: to Whoopie should call me back. It was Robin Roberts,
4:41
Speaker 1: um Ellen. I didn't get a chance nobody. You know,
4:44
Speaker 1: people don't be having celebrity phone number so they won't
4:47
Speaker 1: give it to you. So I didn't get to talk
4:48
Speaker 1: to Ellen. So it's very few people that I got
4:50
Speaker 1: to talk to. I loved the way you handled it, though,
4:52
Speaker 1: I guess. I mean, I think a statement came out
4:54
Speaker 1: with Wendy said she wasn't happy with she wouldn't be
4:56
Speaker 1: watching something, And I loved the way you handled it,
4:59
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, I again, I'm not doing it
5:03
Speaker 1: for anybody. I know what my assignment is. So if
5:06
Speaker 1: somebody and everybody has free choice, it's like, if you want,
5:09
Speaker 1: if you want to watch me, watch and see what
5:11
Speaker 1: I can bring. If you don't, the beauty of it
5:15
Speaker 1: is there's Tamering Hall, there's Jennifer Hudson. If you want
5:20
Speaker 1: a sister, there are there are more than one. There
5:23
Speaker 1: is more than one black woman. Did you always wanted
5:26
Speaker 1: to talk show. Was that something that this is what
5:28
Speaker 1: I want? Yeah, I would, Yeah, it was just I
5:30
Speaker 1: didn't realize it was a talk show that I wanted
5:32
Speaker 1: when I was a little girl and was putting like
5:34
Speaker 1: a paper towel in front of every in front of
5:36
Speaker 1: my dolls. I just like to talk and I love
5:38
Speaker 1: knowing about people. But um, it started as I got
5:41
Speaker 1: as I was doing stand up, I was like, I'd
5:43
Speaker 1: like it. I'd like a talk show because I was
5:45
Speaker 1: looking at stand up comics who did talk shows, and
5:48
Speaker 1: stand ups are really great at doing talk shows. They're
5:50
Speaker 1: great at being guests on a talk show. And so
5:53
Speaker 1: I realized that's what I wanted. And my first pilot
5:55
Speaker 1: was in two thousand and four and it went nowhere.
5:59
Speaker 1: I did it on the Regis and Kelly said, and
6:02
Speaker 1: it just went nowhere because I didn't know who I was.
6:04
Speaker 1: I just wanted to make people laugh. So if you
6:05
Speaker 1: told me to do anything, I would do it. But
6:08
Speaker 1: that was before the View. That was way before the view.
6:11
Speaker 1: I did the view. I didn't start to View two
6:12
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, and I was devastated because I'd
6:14
Speaker 1: done it on Regents and Kelly and I knew I
6:16
Speaker 1: was funny, and I remember the executives walked in and
6:18
Speaker 1: it was like, give us all you give on stage,
6:20
Speaker 1: that that thing you do, And I was like, what
6:22
Speaker 1: do I My voice was I was like, what do
6:23
Speaker 1: I do? Because I'll do it? And they were like,
6:25
Speaker 1: you know that thing? And I was like I don't know,
6:27
Speaker 1: and I was like Lord Jesus, and I was praying.
6:30
Speaker 1: But I wasn't ready. I hadn't matured into the dream,
6:34
Speaker 1: and so had he given it to me, it would
6:36
Speaker 1: have fizzled so fast because I didn't know how it was.
6:39
Speaker 1: I'd have sat in front of people going out, what
6:41
Speaker 1: am I supposed to say? Now, when I sit in
6:43
Speaker 1: front of an audience, I know exactly who I am.
6:46
Speaker 1: I know exactly what I'm delivering. I know exactly what
6:48
Speaker 1: my mission is. I know exactly when some people go,
6:51
Speaker 1: can I come on your show? No, that's not what
6:52
Speaker 1: I do. You would be a celebrity caman. He was like,
6:56
Speaker 1: I want to talk about something that happened in my life.
6:57
Speaker 1: This very serious. You probably would be better with Tamren
7:01
Speaker 1: Wow sitting there because she's a journalist, So absolutely do
7:05
Speaker 1: you would be better served over here because you know
7:08
Speaker 1: Like the thing I love about tamarn is because she's
7:11
Speaker 1: a journalist. She's going to dig places that I'm not
7:14
Speaker 1: gonna go. I'm gonna ask you when you do, you
7:15
Speaker 1: not to play space because I know my audience is coming.
7:18
Speaker 1: They want to feel good, they want laughter. So I'm
7:20
Speaker 1: not gonna go into those places. So and I and
7:23
Speaker 1: I'm at that place, so I can go No, that
7:25
Speaker 1: doesn't work for me. Have you taken a step back
7:28
Speaker 1: and like took a deep breath and just reflected on
7:31
Speaker 1: your journey like all of that, Like you know, you
7:32
Speaker 1: talk about two dollars four to show, didn't going away with? Yeah?
7:35
Speaker 1: And then you know the view and then you know
7:37
Speaker 1: you gotta let go from the view. But then you
7:39
Speaker 1: know years later, you know you get a chance to
7:41
Speaker 1: fill in from the fell into having your own show.
7:43
Speaker 1: Have you like like processed all it? You know, it's
7:45
Speaker 1: so funny, Charlemagne, because I see now looking back, sometimes
7:49
Speaker 1: God don't show you how it's supposed to work out.
7:52
Speaker 1: You just got it even going through it. Trust that
7:55
Speaker 1: it's all that scripture, everything works together for your good.
7:58
Speaker 1: I did not realize that doing the view would be
8:01
Speaker 1: so instrumental in me understanding how to do my show,
8:06
Speaker 1: like I don't get caught up in social media and comments.
8:08
Speaker 1: And because at the end of the day, I still
8:11
Speaker 1: got to pay Jeffrey's therapist his school, and I realize
8:14
Speaker 1: y'all not pay if y'all just want to talk about
8:16
Speaker 1: a fact. I ain't got no damn hips and you
8:18
Speaker 1: ain't cute, and and you just stow this that doesn't
8:21
Speaker 1: serve me. And that's from being on the view because
8:24
Speaker 1: every time somebody got on me, I was going to
8:26
Speaker 1: Barbara and Bill Getty saying, can I just get on
8:29
Speaker 1: the air and clarify and apologize? I Barbara goes, For
8:31
Speaker 1: God's sake, if we apologize for everything, this show would
8:35
Speaker 1: be called the apology, and it's not. You want to apologize,
8:38
Speaker 1: go somewhere else and do it. And that's where I learned,
8:40
Speaker 1: bit you better be tough everybody. You can't be letting
8:43
Speaker 1: everything affect you. So that was a learning ground. Doing
8:46
Speaker 1: dish Nation was a learning ground because I learned too.
8:49
Speaker 1: I'm in a studio by myself, brat and head cracked.
8:53
Speaker 1: They're all in Atlanta, so I have to learn to
8:55
Speaker 1: talk to that prompter like I'm looking at like I'm
8:59
Speaker 1: writing in the room with other people. That serves me
9:02
Speaker 1: when I'm sitting on that chair because I can't see
9:04
Speaker 1: the audience, the cameras right in front of me. So yes,
9:07
Speaker 1: now I see how all these little things doing stand up.
9:10
Speaker 1: I have to stand on stage and headline for ninety
9:12
Speaker 1: minutes and keep you entertained, and somebody might heckle. I
9:18
Speaker 1: gotta think something quick. I don't have no you have
9:27
Speaker 1: some Okay, I'm talking about being married and divorce, but
9:34
Speaker 1: I gotta stop and I have to handle you. That
9:37
Speaker 1: serves me well sitting on a couch, and it serves
9:40
Speaker 1: me well when I you. People are wearing a mask.
9:42
Speaker 1: I can't see if you laughing or not, but I
9:44
Speaker 1: have to know that I know walking out there, they'll
9:47
Speaker 1: share you funny, this is, this is You've been prepared
9:49
Speaker 1: for this. So yes, now I see where got all
9:52
Speaker 1: these little things that I had to do? Even when
9:54
Speaker 1: I bombed, you know, and Dio Hughley told me get
9:57
Speaker 1: back on stage. You gotta get back. So when I
9:59
Speaker 1: when things don't work segments that I want to try
10:01
Speaker 1: and they may not work, I go, okay, fail, you
10:04
Speaker 1: ain't no big, Let's get back up and try something.
10:05
Speaker 1: Do you remember your worst show as a comedian? And
10:07
Speaker 1: I asked old comedians that do you remember your worst show?
10:09
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. It was Mark Curry's manager. I don't
10:14
Speaker 1: remember his manager's name. He and Jamie had the same manager,
10:18
Speaker 1: some King, Marcus King. They used to have a comedy
10:21
Speaker 1: show contest in Oakland, California, and me and my girlfriend,
10:25
Speaker 1: she's now a big publicist at ABC free Form. Because
10:28
Speaker 1: she didn't stay in the game, we pretty much hitched
10:31
Speaker 1: a ride because this ain't for the week standup comedy.
10:33
Speaker 1: We hitched a ride. Don't do this girls, if you
10:36
Speaker 1: hear me, but we hitched a ride all the way
10:38
Speaker 1: to Oakland, California, from LA from LA. We hitch goes.
10:41
Speaker 1: We didn't have no money, We've struggling, and we went
10:43
Speaker 1: and did this contest because the deaf jam people were
10:46
Speaker 1: there staying Lathan. Everybody was there watching these comments, the
10:49
Speaker 1: comics and I have worked on my act and the
10:53
Speaker 1: first round knocked out the first freaking round because they
10:56
Speaker 1: put me last out to follow all the dirty comics
10:58
Speaker 1: and I was clean. I don't even curse. Remember, Oh
11:01
Speaker 1: my gosh, she was Lester Barry was del huge. Lee
11:04
Speaker 1: did Jamie go up. Might have been Jamie because yeah,
11:06
Speaker 1: it probably was Jamie because he didn't have nothing in
11:08
Speaker 1: except pimples on his face. He didn't have nothing. Um
11:11
Speaker 1: it was it was Evette Brown. She used to play
11:14
Speaker 1: in dell on Moitia. She and um, oh my gosh.
11:17
Speaker 1: Cat wasn't out then, we didn't know him. Might have
11:21
Speaker 1: been was jab there. I know Mark Curry was there.
11:23
Speaker 1: It's all the ones that you see now that are that,
11:26
Speaker 1: and then there's a lot of them that you don't see.
11:28
Speaker 1: All of the Oakland comics were there, and they put me.
11:31
Speaker 1: It was twenty four comics. I was twenty three, So
11:33
Speaker 1: me coming out gonna hey everybody, how you doing. They
11:36
Speaker 1: was like boo, bitch, get out to stay. And then
11:39
Speaker 1: all the comics when you bomb, they don't want to
11:41
Speaker 1: be around you. They don't even want to talk to you.
11:43
Speaker 1: It's like you got some kind of disease. And I
11:45
Speaker 1: cried and I have no money to get home, and
11:49
Speaker 1: um we had to hitch back and then I it
11:51
Speaker 1: was a horrible and my girlfriend made it the next round.
11:54
Speaker 1: She made it the next round and she had to
11:56
Speaker 1: come too. She I was like, well, you're gonna come back.
11:58
Speaker 1: She was like, noa, I made it, so I had
11:59
Speaker 1: to go back home by myself, made you continue on
12:02
Speaker 1: because at that point most people have been like, you
12:03
Speaker 1: know what, maybe comedies not for me. It was all
12:05
Speaker 1: I had. It was like I was illegal secretary. My
12:08
Speaker 1: mom had diabetes and she was not taking care of herself,
12:11
Speaker 1: so she was sick. I had an as sister. It
12:13
Speaker 1: was on you know, on drugs. Look at my fami,
12:16
Speaker 1: my fami. My home was just my ex boy from
12:18
Speaker 1: he had gone to prison, like he was writing let
12:21
Speaker 1: us all the time time he was gonna kill me.
12:22
Speaker 1: I mean, it was like, I really do need a
12:27
Speaker 1: lifetime movie. I'm on si Hona teller to place mat
12:30
Speaker 1: But no, no, I just it was all I had
12:33
Speaker 1: to be able to get on stage in the darkest
12:36
Speaker 1: times and half the time out of half a place
12:38
Speaker 1: to live, staying on people's couches. That was the only
12:42
Speaker 1: time I felt like somebody or you know, just being
12:46
Speaker 1: on stage, you know, and I could make people laugh
12:47
Speaker 1: at the stuff that I was going through. So I
12:50
Speaker 1: got the journal from when I was on stage. It
12:51
Speaker 1: has tears dried up on the on the notebook. So
12:57
Speaker 1: that's why I got on safe. I got A two
12:59
Speaker 1: pu's both of your careers. When you do stand up
13:02
Speaker 1: in that moment and you said you was number twenty
13:05
Speaker 1: four and everybody before you was dirty. That was an
13:07
Speaker 1: era where you had to be like shocking, right, like
13:09
Speaker 1: you had to have like some edge to you. Just
13:12
Speaker 1: exactly how did you keep yourself from being that? Because
13:15
Speaker 1: I couldn't be that, Like I like, if you Sheryl
13:17
Speaker 1: Underwood was on there, and if you better seeing Sheryl
13:20
Speaker 1: on stage like Sherlin turned out, She's still Joe Tory.
13:25
Speaker 1: Joe Tory was on the thing. You're following Joe Tory.
13:28
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. So uh was t K doing it
13:33
Speaker 1: to them? I'm from the valley, so I'm talking like this.
13:39
Speaker 1: My voice was so how you guys do? Um? I
13:42
Speaker 1: couldn't be I tried to go up on stage one
13:45
Speaker 1: time at the Birdland West and Long Beach and I
13:47
Speaker 1: tried Scrunch show was up at the Now more names
13:49
Speaker 1: are coming to me, but um, I tried to be Sheryl,
13:53
Speaker 1: but it's not authentic. And I remember going up on
13:55
Speaker 1: stage and I tried to do I had this Heckla
13:58
Speaker 1: line prepared if they said something, and I was gonna
14:00
Speaker 1: be like I'll stab you, Ugga, I'll stab And I
14:03
Speaker 1: tried it and he was laughing because then it don't
14:06
Speaker 1: hardly look sure, looked like she could stab you, Sherry Shepherd, No, sir,
14:11
Speaker 1: So it didn't work. Me trying to be somebody who
14:13
Speaker 1: I wasn't, and I learned to just you know, DL
14:18
Speaker 1: said you gotta get back up on the stage. Jamie
14:20
Speaker 1: was very encouraging vette everybody, and I just realized it's
14:24
Speaker 1: just you gotta keep getting back up. You gotta keep
14:26
Speaker 1: showing up and you eventually get better. If you keep
14:30
Speaker 1: doing it, you get better. So you have to you
14:33
Speaker 1: gotta bomb. You gotta fail otherwise you really don't appreciate
14:36
Speaker 1: it when you get on stage. And now I can
14:38
Speaker 1: get on stage it, don't you know a heckler, You're
14:40
Speaker 1: not scaring me because you're not making the money I'm making.
14:43
Speaker 1: You probably want to do what I'm doing right now.
14:45
Speaker 1: But you're scared, so you're gonna scream it on stage
14:48
Speaker 1: where it's dark. But if I put a microphone in
14:50
Speaker 1: front of your face, you ain't really got too much
14:53
Speaker 1: to say. And everybody in this room came to see
14:55
Speaker 1: me and they really want you gone. So when I
14:57
Speaker 1: coming out. I got their confidence. They know. So the
15:01
Speaker 1: second part of that is, I guess you applied that
15:03
Speaker 1: to the View as well. Because Barbara Walters is the
15:06
Speaker 1: bar I was a messenger in the View. I wasn't
15:09
Speaker 1: confidence at all, okay, because Barbara, like Barbara was ratchet,
15:12
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I love I loved every way.
15:14
Speaker 1: She questions, did you feel like you had to be
15:17
Speaker 1: that when you were on the View, Yeah, I felt
15:19
Speaker 1: like I had to. Like I got on this show,
15:22
Speaker 1: Charlotte Mage Andy Murphy wasn't one and told me I
15:24
Speaker 1: was doing a show. I was doing a movie called
15:25
Speaker 1: Who's Your Caddy with Big Boy. I'm talking in times
15:29
Speaker 1: with Terry Crews. I'm just trying to make people laugh.
15:31
Speaker 1: And they called me to guest host, and I guest
15:34
Speaker 1: hosted and they liked me. And then Star was like,
15:37
Speaker 1: when I go on, when I go on the road,
15:38
Speaker 1: I want to Sherry to fill in for me. I
15:40
Speaker 1: was terrified to meet Star. Probably called her by the
15:42
Speaker 1: wrong name, um stay sick because she was a big lawyer,
15:46
Speaker 1: and Enjoy said, I like Sherry when I go on
15:49
Speaker 1: the road and do kids called so he kept calling me.
15:51
Speaker 1: But I never wanted to do that show because I
15:54
Speaker 1: knew they were talking about politics and debating. I was
15:57
Speaker 1: as Jehovah's witness. I didn't do no debating on it,
16:00
Speaker 1: talk back to people who were older than me, and um,
16:03
Speaker 1: everybody kept saying, do it because it's gonna change your life.
16:06
Speaker 1: My best friend John Murray, who was my EP on
16:09
Speaker 1: my show, he said, Sherry, doing the view will change
16:12
Speaker 1: your life, and I promise you. And I did it reluctantly.
16:16
Speaker 1: And here the first week I said, I don't know
16:17
Speaker 1: if the Earth was round the flat, step right in it.
16:20
Speaker 1: And I did. And by the way, I do know
16:23
Speaker 1: that the Earth is round. I was so nervous. When
16:26
Speaker 1: I get nervous, I can't remember names. I could, you know,
16:29
Speaker 1: I didn't even hear them ask me the question. You
16:31
Speaker 1: were ahead of your time. This is more flat Earth
16:33
Speaker 1: is now now they aren't coming about the whoopworks everybody
16:36
Speaker 1: who said Earth is flat. Um. But to sit next
16:40
Speaker 1: to this woman who was just like, she don't smile,
16:43
Speaker 1: she don't you know. And then I'm next to Whoopee
16:44
Speaker 1: who's looking to be like, bitch, you don't know nothing,
16:47
Speaker 1: you know. I'm just like So it was very It
16:49
Speaker 1: was very hard for me. How did you find yourself
16:51
Speaker 1: on that show? Because you know Barbara would ask anything. Yeah,
16:55
Speaker 1: and whoopee is already established. And that was the year
16:57
Speaker 1: we started doing a lot of politics because that's the
17:00
Speaker 1: year Obama was running, and it was a lot of
17:03
Speaker 1: race stuff coming up. And I had to learn. It
17:06
Speaker 1: was a lot of failures and it was a lot
17:09
Speaker 1: of falls. I don't like callm failures. It was a
17:11
Speaker 1: lot of faults on the view and I, you know,
17:13
Speaker 1: I had to sit and look at Bill Maher saying
17:16
Speaker 1: they could do something with the stupid stick to me,
17:18
Speaker 1: Bill O'Reilly called me a pinhead. You gave me Donkey
17:21
Speaker 1: of the day like this was everything, Howard. I don't
17:27
Speaker 1: remember what you gave it. No, you said I don't
17:29
Speaker 1: have no butt or something. It was a Tasmanian devil,
17:31
Speaker 1: I remember. I know. But now you're now you you've involved,
17:36
Speaker 1: Now you have therapy in your life, and you give
17:39
Speaker 1: the gods that we all served your respectful. You love
17:43
Speaker 1: people's energy. You do like now you're you're change, You've
17:46
Speaker 1: evolved you and you weren't not all that when you
17:49
Speaker 1: gave me Donkey in the day and talked about it.
17:50
Speaker 1: I was listening to y'all did show. Yeah, me and
17:56
Speaker 1: my son listened to the show. He was like, Mommy
17:58
Speaker 1: was shawmmate, don't like y'all. I don't know. Well, when
18:03
Speaker 1: you give somebody donkey to day, Charlotte mage people when
18:06
Speaker 1: you on the other Saturday asked stephen A. Smith, when
18:08
Speaker 1: you're on up sad that people you know, you're thinking
18:11
Speaker 1: of people. You think people don't like you. But it
18:15
Speaker 1: is all of that I had. That's how I learned, Sherry.
18:19
Speaker 1: You can't take in everybody else's energy that doesn't serve you.
18:23
Speaker 1: I know that that's wanna pay attention to social media.
18:25
Speaker 1: I wish I could let these young people know get
18:28
Speaker 1: beyond social media and clapping back and you arguing with
18:31
Speaker 1: this one. It don't serve you. It is a waste
18:34
Speaker 1: of energy. But I didn't know that then, But I learned.
18:37
Speaker 1: I learned from a woman going, this ain't the day
18:39
Speaker 1: an apology show. Go out there, stand by what you said,
18:43
Speaker 1: and we're gonna keep it moving because basically, once the
18:45
Speaker 1: next news cycle comes, they're gonna forget what you said. No,
18:48
Speaker 1: that's what I want to ask you about that, because
18:50
Speaker 1: that's a good point, right. Thank you for coming to
18:52
Speaker 1: But after you gave you don't get you to show
19:00
Speaker 1: I may actually you apologize. You was like, no, you're not.
19:03
Speaker 1: Then you said you were sorry. So the evolution I
19:05
Speaker 1: could see it happened. And even then so with that, right,
19:07
Speaker 1: like we've seen Barbara Walters do apology shows and like
19:09
Speaker 1: everybody sees all this old content of Barbara and they're
19:12
Speaker 1: using the N word and asking people about that sexuality.
19:15
Speaker 1: So if somebody came to you right now, I was like,
19:17
Speaker 1: Barbara Walters is racist. You know these kids are they
19:19
Speaker 1: they see what would you say to them? I would say,
19:22
Speaker 1: you'd have to you you only saw a clip, because
19:25
Speaker 1: everything everybody operates in little three second clips. I would
19:29
Speaker 1: say you have to work with this woman because because
19:31
Speaker 1: the reason why you may be on the air is
19:33
Speaker 1: because of Barbara Walters. And so the same woman is
19:36
Speaker 1: the same woman who put two black women on the
19:37
Speaker 1: air when no, you had never seen that before. There
19:40
Speaker 1: had never been two black women on a talk show
19:43
Speaker 1: and Barbara Walters ABC did not want me and she
19:46
Speaker 1: fought for me to be on there. So if you
19:48
Speaker 1: saying a racist wants another two black women on her
19:51
Speaker 1: show and she's a racist, that that don't that don't
19:53
Speaker 1: even go together. Because she felt like I had something
19:56
Speaker 1: to say. And when people would talk about she, she
19:59
Speaker 1: defended me on how return Now you know, so a
20:02
Speaker 1: woman who's doing that, And she would always say to me,
20:04
Speaker 1: I believe in you. You can do it. Just freaking
20:06
Speaker 1: read a book and defend what. You can't rely on
20:09
Speaker 1: your pastor what your pastor says all the time. Read
20:12
Speaker 1: a book. Now. I love talking politics, but I had
20:16
Speaker 1: to go through I didn't know about politics, and I
20:18
Speaker 1: didn't know what you know different things, but I do now.
20:21
Speaker 1: So falling is not bad. It's a way you look
20:24
Speaker 1: at it. You get back up, you keep showing up,
20:27
Speaker 1: and you're gonna get better. And then there's other blessing.
20:29
Speaker 1: Now you mentioned stephen A. Smith. He was on your show.
20:31
Speaker 1: Oh he stepped in. Oh my gosh. I was trying
20:36
Speaker 1: to let him know. On the couch he was a
20:39
Speaker 1: conversation about super Bowl. Oh my god, and then he
20:42
Speaker 1: went jumped out the window and just said out of
20:44
Speaker 1: nowhere for no reason. Rihanna is no, oh my god,
20:48
Speaker 1: why you know? But the thing about it is like
20:51
Speaker 1: I feel like stephen A. A lot of people I
20:53
Speaker 1: had discern that's what he does, that's what he gets
20:55
Speaker 1: paid for. But there's a way that men be talking.
20:58
Speaker 1: You know, y'all talk, you can get rudo. But when
21:01
Speaker 1: you go in front of an audience full of black women,
21:05
Speaker 1: it's a day in time. Were tired of being compared
21:07
Speaker 1: to the next black woman. Well, black women are feeling like,
21:11
Speaker 1: don't nobody protect us like you. It's a lot of
21:14
Speaker 1: triggers and you and I feel like somebody on his
21:17
Speaker 1: team should have been briefing him, going, this is a
21:20
Speaker 1: female talk show, stephen A. This isn't because on his show,
21:23
Speaker 1: I'm sure they tell the women, if y'all want to
21:25
Speaker 1: play on our field, you gotta take you gotta be
21:28
Speaker 1: able to play like a man. But I wish somebody
21:30
Speaker 1: would have said, you're coming on an all female show.
21:34
Speaker 1: They love Sherry, these are women, so there's a you
21:37
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta course correct a little bit. And I
21:40
Speaker 1: don't think so. And I think it threw him, you know,
21:42
Speaker 1: because Steven got he got that swag. He sat back
21:44
Speaker 1: and did his tie and I was like, oh trouble
21:49
Speaker 1: and you you coming on with the swag because they
21:51
Speaker 1: was loving Steven, they were loving him, and he did
21:54
Speaker 1: everything that he did. He does it on his show,
21:57
Speaker 1: but she ain't no Beyonce, it's said he does that.
22:01
Speaker 1: That crowd was not and he wasn't reading the room
22:06
Speaker 1: like yeah, wait a minute, wait a minute. You know,
22:07
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it this and I'm gonna give her that,
22:10
Speaker 1: you know, And I'm looking at him going, I just
22:13
Speaker 1: wanted to use the N word right on the air, going, boy,
22:16
Speaker 1: you are, you are stepping in it and this ain't
22:19
Speaker 1: gonna and it ain't gonna lie on just my show.
22:21
Speaker 1: You may think you be thinking this the Little Sherry show.
22:23
Speaker 1: This suck about to get out. I tried. I was like,
22:26
Speaker 1: wait a minute, wait a minute, we're trying to He
22:29
Speaker 1: wasn't going with me, and no we're not comparing, Like
22:35
Speaker 1: what was the point, Like it wasn't even a discussion.
22:38
Speaker 1: I think, you know, because this is what Steve n does.
22:42
Speaker 1: He just you know, he causes, he does controversy and
22:45
Speaker 1: he it's in his DNA to go yeah, but and
22:49
Speaker 1: this is how people talk. We've had this, you know,
22:52
Speaker 1: when you with your friends, you taught who's better. I
22:54
Speaker 1: loved it when Katie Perry came on and Missy Elliott
22:57
Speaker 1: stole it you know, we have those discussions, but you
23:00
Speaker 1: gotta know how to read your room. Katie and Missy
23:03
Speaker 1: is different because yes we want. Yeah, I'm paying no
23:06
Speaker 1: attention to Katie. Yeah I want. I'm just saying the
23:09
Speaker 1: feeling I got with Missy exploded on that stage is
23:12
Speaker 1: why I watch set through Katie Perry's set. It was
23:16
Speaker 1: Missy Elliott. So there's a way that you talk. There's
23:19
Speaker 1: things that I will not say on my show that
23:21
Speaker 1: because I know that's not my audience. And I learned
23:24
Speaker 1: that from the view John had to call it. It
23:26
Speaker 1: was one time I was defending Sarah Palin with everything
23:28
Speaker 1: I had. I was because she had a special needs child.
23:31
Speaker 1: So I was like, this is a woman with a
23:33
Speaker 1: special need said and John was like, black people hate you.
23:36
Speaker 1: Stop it. It's certain things. There's your inside voice, there's Joe.
23:39
Speaker 1: So I will never be that person who says everything
23:42
Speaker 1: that's on my mind. But why can't we have nuance?
23:45
Speaker 1: I understand what John saying, but you should be able
23:47
Speaker 1: to say, hey, I can relate because she has a
23:50
Speaker 1: special need child. But also I don't, I mean I
23:52
Speaker 1: like her politics? Why because I wasn't articulate like that
23:54
Speaker 1: at that time I am now yeah, like because we
23:58
Speaker 1: had a whole discussion backstage because I do feel like
24:01
Speaker 1: I don't like that so many people jumped on Stephen
24:04
Speaker 1: because it was an opinion. He loves both women. He
24:07
Speaker 1: really does love both women. He just he just felt,
24:10
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta come up to where Beyonce is
24:13
Speaker 1: re renos that she got that competition within herself. Um,
24:17
Speaker 1: he just didn't read the room. And I felt. I
24:19
Speaker 1: came in and I said, I want to say, this
24:21
Speaker 1: was unfair to Stephen a smith. He should have been
24:23
Speaker 1: ba And John said, you have to you have to
24:27
Speaker 1: do are you falling on the sword with Stephen? Because
24:29
Speaker 1: this is what you're gonna get the backlash. There's a
24:31
Speaker 1: way you can articulate this, Sherry, because we gotta remember
24:35
Speaker 1: the theme of the show is you're being funny, you're light,
24:38
Speaker 1: So you can't come on, you know, wagging your finger people.
24:42
Speaker 1: Because what I don't like is that nobody is allowed
24:45
Speaker 1: to have an opinion and say anything without people going
24:48
Speaker 1: to take him off the air and canceling. So we
24:51
Speaker 1: worked it through. It took us about twenty five minutes.
24:53
Speaker 1: We worked it through. Of Okay, why I put a
24:55
Speaker 1: joke in here, I could do it, okay, so to
24:57
Speaker 1: be having the navy, you know, I could say this
24:59
Speaker 1: and I so that it's palatable for everybody. And I
25:02
Speaker 1: still said the same thing, and I still put in
25:04
Speaker 1: my message up. I don't like us being at a
25:06
Speaker 1: place where we can't say our opinion. So that's what
25:08
Speaker 1: I know how to do that now, really apologize in
25:11
Speaker 1: the parking lot, right, because he apologized in the car
25:14
Speaker 1: because I think it was just shell shot too. And
25:16
Speaker 1: you know, because you know you don't and also you
25:18
Speaker 1: just don't realize how big this. The people in today
25:22
Speaker 1: we get triggered and that affects you. But and that's
25:24
Speaker 1: why I said, please go buy his book because he
25:26
Speaker 1: does say some really great things in his book about
25:29
Speaker 1: you know, about his relationship with his father, his mother,
25:32
Speaker 1: how instrument and I still have women going I don't
25:34
Speaker 1: give it because the sisters didn't teach him nothing, and
25:36
Speaker 1: as mama didn't. I mean, I have friends who are
25:38
Speaker 1: really angry. And he didn't say what right if you say,
25:41
Speaker 1: if y'all have a discussion about live performers, and you
25:43
Speaker 1: say Rihanna not a better live performer than Beyonce, but
25:47
Speaker 1: all you said, was Rihanna ain't no Beyonce, What does
25:48
Speaker 1: that even mean? I think it's just him saying, you know,
25:50
Speaker 1: you know, y'all, you know your uncle left it and Thanksgiving,
25:53
Speaker 1: no matter what you say, your uncle like, yeah, but
25:55
Speaker 1: you know he ain't gonna the way he run. And
25:58
Speaker 1: I think and also I think that Stephen Asmith didn't
26:01
Speaker 1: realize we black women, we are just feeling like we're
26:05
Speaker 1: not protected. You know, it's not like you have to
26:08
Speaker 1: with with on first take, you are brutally taking down
26:11
Speaker 1: thirty NFL teams. You got a lot of comparison, well
26:14
Speaker 1: black women at this at this level performing at the
26:17
Speaker 1: super Bowl. It's three of them. One got in trouble,
26:21
Speaker 1: a nipple got shown, she got thrown under the bus,
26:24
Speaker 1: and her career was gone for a minute. Janet Jackson,
26:27
Speaker 1: you got Beyonce, you got Rihanna. You just have it
26:30
Speaker 1: like it's not a lot. There's not a lot of us,
26:32
Speaker 1: so to be trying to it does look like you're
26:35
Speaker 1: pitting us against And that's why I think you have
26:37
Speaker 1: to have women on your team sometimes to go let
26:40
Speaker 1: me come in here and tell you something. So I
26:42
Speaker 1: don't think that went through Black women and with them
26:45
Speaker 1: was black women when they and they turned quick, Oh
26:49
Speaker 1: my gosh. And then you also you got to be half.
26:51
Speaker 1: It's a bunch of fourteen year olds coming after you.
26:56
Speaker 1: And you don't realize the power of fourteen year olds
26:59
Speaker 1: putting me teams all. You can't even get to the
27:01
Speaker 1: good comments because they're fourteen year olds. Ain't got nothing
27:04
Speaker 1: to do. I don't argue what to be high. I
27:06
Speaker 1: don't even say these Nikki re red Beyonce. The worst
27:16
Speaker 1: they said to me when I did when I was
27:18
Speaker 1: filling in, and I think I said one thing. It
27:20
Speaker 1: wasn't even nothing bad, and somebody put on a post
27:24
Speaker 1: they said, don't even go there because we'll take you down.
27:26
Speaker 1: It was like the mafia heads to me. I showed John,
27:30
Speaker 1: I was saying, they they comment, and I was like,
27:33
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this dig on these barbs. I want
27:36
Speaker 1: to salute John John because I was told that you
27:40
Speaker 1: you you told that bout murky. I'm not doing this
27:42
Speaker 1: show of John, And I thought that was so just
27:46
Speaker 1: doping on the absolutely yeah for so long. Um, John
27:51
Speaker 1: is like the wonder kind of creativity. So a lot
27:54
Speaker 1: of the stuff that we do is John's idea We've
27:57
Speaker 1: been on this journey twenty or more years, and he
28:01
Speaker 1: is smart and a lot of people he knows. He
28:03
Speaker 1: has a lot of connections in the business, and not
28:06
Speaker 1: connections where you do. For me, I do few relationships,
28:09
Speaker 1: is what I should say, A lot of He got
28:11
Speaker 1: that Janet Jackson thing happening. That was John Murray who
28:14
Speaker 1: did this. So I couldn't give credit to the show
28:16
Speaker 1: because it was John. He you know people that come
28:19
Speaker 1: on our show, John makes a phone call. We can't
28:21
Speaker 1: get clearance. John makes a phone call. So he has relationships.
28:24
Speaker 1: He knows talk shows like the back of his hand.
28:27
Speaker 1: He helped me on the view articulate what I was
28:30
Speaker 1: gonna say. I knew what I wanted to say, but
28:32
Speaker 1: he was like, you can't. You don't have enough time
28:34
Speaker 1: to say that. Whoopie's gonna say this to you. Joey's
28:36
Speaker 1: gonna interrupt. You got to say it succinctly and quickly.
28:40
Speaker 1: And John helped me with that, And so I knew
28:42
Speaker 1: that this dream was not only my dream, it was
28:45
Speaker 1: John Murray's dream too, because he's the only black man
28:48
Speaker 1: with the executive producer title and the power. And I said,
28:51
Speaker 1: I didn't just want him to be executive producer. He
28:53
Speaker 1: had to have the power. That's what I had to
28:55
Speaker 1: fight for. So he and he's great and the producers
28:59
Speaker 1: love him, and you know, so I trust him because
29:02
Speaker 1: I can't fight all of the battles and I can't
29:04
Speaker 1: be up on the other side in the office and
29:05
Speaker 1: I can't. Yeah, I gotta it's just sitting on that couch.
29:08
Speaker 1: It's a mental thing I gotta do. So having him
29:11
Speaker 1: with me and being able to look at him and
29:13
Speaker 1: he says things, I don't know what I would I wouldn't.
29:16
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have done the show without him. Now, I
29:17
Speaker 1: wouldn't would have walked away. That says a lot about you, though,
29:20
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, because this is your dream

Speaker 1: they still in their mama's basement. I still get those
30:31

30:49
Speaker 1: There's somebody out here who's gonna love my mouth? Who's going?
30:52
Speaker 1: And that sound horrible? Look. I was like, Sherry, this
31:01
Speaker 1: whole show. My father is like, really she trying to
31:03
Speaker 1: get rid of this whole She's trying to ask this
31:05
Speaker 1: whole interview. PU by the way, smiles smiles. We've been
31:09
Speaker 1: together with ten years. I'm telling I don't I like,
31:13
Speaker 1: I like longevity in my life. But no, I meant like,
31:15
Speaker 1: they're gonna like what I say. They're not gonna be insecure.
31:18
Speaker 1: They're not gonna and it's only one, it ain't thirteen
31:20
Speaker 1: of them. And I literally when and I started dating
31:23
Speaker 1: more because I would date Envy. We would go out
31:26
Speaker 1: on a date. I want to marry you. I'm writing,
31:28
Speaker 1: you know, Sherry envy with us and hearts. Yes, that's
31:32
Speaker 1: how it was because I was in this religion that
31:33
Speaker 1: taught you you don't know, Charlotte Manna, you gotta get married,
31:36
Speaker 1: get married. You gotta get married if you want to
31:38
Speaker 1: have sex. We already had that show about the second husband.
31:46
Speaker 1: That don't work at all. If you horny, don't get mad,
31:50
Speaker 1: don't get married. Even when I feel like, damn, I gotta,
31:52
Speaker 1: I gotta like go. I don't know what I'm gonna
31:54
Speaker 1: say when I get to Heaven to day, like they
31:55
Speaker 1: played my positives and negatives. I just know it didn't
31:58
Speaker 1: work for me being horned and doing a marital bliss.
32:01
Speaker 1: We had less X. We got married and I still
32:07
Speaker 1: but no. But that's where I came from. So I
32:10
Speaker 1: went to a dating coach and she said, you gotta
32:13
Speaker 1: go out with different people. It don't make you no hole.
32:16
Speaker 1: It just you find out what you like, what you don't,
32:19
Speaker 1: how you can appreciate things. It's conversation. You gotta learn
32:22
Speaker 1: how to have conversation without making the curly cues and
32:26
Speaker 1: putting their last name on it. You gotta learn how
32:28
Speaker 1: to go out and if they don't call you, you
32:30
Speaker 1: ain't texting trying to be cute, you know, and and
32:32
Speaker 1: doing a little hintson. So I started just dating. I
32:36
Speaker 1: dated somebody I met on Instagram. Really, he was like,
32:38
Speaker 1: I am a sheriff. I work in Atlanta. Do you
32:41
Speaker 1: date regular guys? He was a sheriff And I said,
32:45
Speaker 1: are you a killer? Are you a serial killer? He
32:46
Speaker 1: said no. I was like, okay, let's meet. So I
32:49
Speaker 1: went to Atlanta to do something with Kim Whitley. I
32:51
Speaker 1: had three dates in one day. I had a breakfast
32:54
Speaker 1: date with the sheriff I had. I had another date

38:00
Speaker 1: I know who I am. Yes, everybody. I know y'all
38:03

38:06
Speaker 1: and I'm walking away now. You get you know, damnson
38:09
Speaker 1: interests like shit. You go and have fun because once
38:12
Speaker 1: you settle down and that belly get big and you
38:15
Speaker 1: start getting them indentations on your booty. Because that baby
38:19
Speaker 1: just taking everything from you. It's a whole different story.
38:22
Speaker 1: Enjoy the season of your life and keep your mouth
38:25
Speaker 1: because she don't be telling nobody what she's doing. So
38:27
Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on Lorie Harvey's house. I
38:29
Speaker 1: know one thing, Lorie Harvey, if you try to steal
38:31
Speaker 1: a car, she'll beat your ass. You see that video
38:34
Speaker 1: when they try to steal Loris. So you gotta ride
38:36
Speaker 1: a down right there. You just gotta be the right
38:38
Speaker 1: one to get that ride of down you go. You know,
38:39
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you too, you know, I remember
38:41
Speaker 1: you started the show and like it's a great time
38:44
Speaker 1: in your life, right your dream, Yeah, accomplished, but then
38:46
Speaker 1: you also lost a great friend and David David arnold man.
38:50
Speaker 1: But I'm sure you couldn't show that on TV. So
38:54
Speaker 1: I owe that, like emotionally for you devastating, and it's
38:57
Speaker 1: still devastating right now because David A. Arnold, and if
39:00
Speaker 1: you don't know him, god freaking look him up, was
39:02
Speaker 1: just on the cusp. I know David from the beginning
39:06
Speaker 1: when he was came to LA and to see somebody
39:09
Speaker 1: on the cusp of this, of everything that he ever
39:12
Speaker 1: dreamed of happening. I was his first major talk show.
39:16
Speaker 1: He had his outfit hanging on the closet. We had
39:19
Speaker 1: talked all the time, and so you know, he was
39:22
Speaker 1: just I saw David fail and bombed so many times
39:25
Speaker 1: and re and course, correct and redo, and he got
39:28
Speaker 1: on this family literally and he credits me for this.
39:31
Speaker 1: We were on the plane with Janet Jackson going to
39:34
Speaker 1: Essence and her baby was screaming like crazy and he
39:37
Speaker 1: was getting so irritated because she was going up and
39:39
Speaker 1: down the aisle, no nanny trying to quiet him up,
39:42
Speaker 1: and she we were talking and he was so mad
39:44
Speaker 1: that I didn't introduce him to Jenna, because David Arnold
39:47
Speaker 1: had an ego like nobody's business. And he made a
39:49
Speaker 1: video and it was so funny, and I said, David,
39:52
Speaker 1: get back to making those videos about you, about your family,
39:55
Speaker 1: and he would go God damn. And I said, keep
39:58
Speaker 1: doing that, and I was reposting in it, and his
40:00
Speaker 1: numbers were going up. Then more people started reposting, and
40:03
Speaker 1: that's how people knew him. And so it just because
40:06
Speaker 1: he said I don't want to write. He was an
40:08
Speaker 1: amazing writer. I want to be an actor and it
40:10
Speaker 1: was happening for him. So to have lost him so early,
40:15
Speaker 1: that's the only time a question. God. It was like,
40:17
Speaker 1: I don't understand. He loved his family so much. Somebody
40:20
Speaker 1: came to David another big comic, Uh, Corey's good It
40:23
Speaker 1: was Corey Holco. It was Corey Corey Hoko wanted to
40:27
Speaker 1: fight David Arnold at the laugh Factory and David goes,
40:30
Speaker 1: I'm not fighting you. I have a mortgage to pay.
40:32
Speaker 1: I don't fight anymore, you know, And it was funny
40:35
Speaker 1: seeing me. He was like, I'm not from the hood,
40:38
Speaker 1: and it was like, that was David. And I wish
40:41
Speaker 1: that the world really would have been able. He was
40:44
Speaker 1: working with Kevin Hart and Lena Wait, he had he
40:47
Speaker 1: had three series that were about to go into production,
40:51
Speaker 1: plus his own, and so I just feel bad that
40:54
Speaker 1: the world didn't get to see what David Arnold would
40:57
Speaker 1: have been bringing the virus is remorse like guilt because
41:02
Speaker 1: your your dream is happening. Yeah, your guy was on
41:05
Speaker 1: the cusp, but you know you transition. Um, it wasn't
41:08
Speaker 1: that survivor's remorse because I know my path was different
41:11
Speaker 1: from David's. I just wish that more like David would
41:15
Speaker 1: have gotten what I got. You know, David would have
41:17
Speaker 1: gotten a success that I was able to get. I don't.
41:20
Speaker 1: I don't get into the survivor's remorse, And why why
41:23
Speaker 1: me and not them? We all have our own path.
41:26
Speaker 1: And if you stopped looking at well, why me? And
41:28
Speaker 1: how come they got it and not on I'm just
41:30
Speaker 1: as good, then you're not paying attention to the path
41:32
Speaker 1: that God got you on, because we all got a
41:34
Speaker 1: purpose and we all gotta you know. So why do
41:37
Speaker 1: I have a talk show versus the person who is
41:40
Speaker 1: much better than me and they don't have a talk show?
41:41
Speaker 1: I don't know, But that's a lot of energy I'm
41:43
Speaker 1: wasting on that. Why do I not? You know, how
41:46
Speaker 1: come I don't have my father got dementia? How come
41:49
Speaker 1: your father don't have dementia? I don't know. It's just
41:51
Speaker 1: what I have to deal with. So it's just it's
41:54
Speaker 1: like where you're gonna spend your energy, especially as we
41:56
Speaker 1: get older, Like I just don't have a lot of
41:58
Speaker 1: time for where's my energy going and if it's if
42:00
Speaker 1: it's not serving man, if it's not positive, and if
42:03
Speaker 1: it's not pushing me forward, then I don't have time
42:06
Speaker 1: to engage. Is that the answer you received when you
42:08
Speaker 1: when you question God about that situation? It was silence.
42:11
Speaker 1: But like moving to New York, I got a clear answer.
42:13
Speaker 1: I did not want to come to New York to
42:14
Speaker 1: do the show once staying there, like all my friends
42:16
Speaker 1: are in there, like my pack that I hang with.
42:19
Speaker 1: And you know, you always got that person who talks
42:21
Speaker 1: to guy who got the answer, and she said, God
42:23
Speaker 1: said to me that New York is not for you,
42:25
Speaker 1: It is for your son. He has asked Burghers that
42:27
Speaker 1: it's for Jeffrey to find his independence. That is where
42:30
Speaker 1: so I said, okay, he, oh my gosh, he takes
42:33
Speaker 1: it uber by himself. He has his own key. He
42:37
Speaker 1: then lost five of them. I'll be like, oh, if
42:39
Speaker 1: somebody break into this damn Brownstone, Jeffrey, I'm a kid,
42:42
Speaker 1: You're gonna be the first one. But he lets himself in.
42:46
Speaker 1: He took. I let him take the train to go
42:48
Speaker 1: to the Mets game, and I prayed the whole time
42:51
Speaker 1: the train. He won with his friends, but they all
42:54
Speaker 1: got special needs. All of them got special needs. And
42:57
Speaker 1: I was just like Lord and he was like Sherry.
43:00
Speaker 1: I got him. I cried the whole time I was texting.
43:03
Speaker 1: And then he said, Mom, we got in a celebrity section.
43:05
Speaker 1: What is no I pay for nosebleed section two? What
43:09
